Batavia offensive coordinator Mike Gaspari knows he's attending Saturday's North Central College at Augustana football game with his wife, Marcia.
He might well see several other familiar faces during his drive along Interstate 88.
College Conference of Illinois and Wisconsin rivals North Central and Augustana both feature a handful of former Bulldogs, including Augustana's Ben Fornek, a sophomore starter at defensive back. Gaspari's son, Noel, is the Cardinals' second-string quarterback, continuing a Batavia tradition at NCC that includes the elder Gaspari as well as Batavia head coach Dennis Piron and defensive coordinator Matt Holm.
"We're looking forward to having a nice day out there in Rock Island," Mike Gaspari said. "It's filled a nice void when our season ended earlier than we anticipated."
While Batavia lost to Downers Grove North in the first round of the 7A playoffs on Oct. 26, alumni from its recent postseason teams play on. The Vikings' roster also includes wide receiver Evan Zeddies and linebackers Jake Benner and Austin Lewis. Senior defensive end Shane Holl, a usual starter, has contended with nagging ankle injuries this season.
North Central – 7-2 and regularly ranked in NCAA Division III entering the regular-season finale – also features defensive back Kevin Schroeder, defensive lineman Jay Thrun and offensive lineman Brian Wilson of Batavia.
Augustana (5-4) has won four straight games.
Mike Gaspari, Batavia's longtime head coach and athletic director before retiring at the end of the 2010-11 school year, has seen each of NCC's home games and several road contests. He discussed that arrangement with Piron before the season and assured it would not compromise his commitment to the Bulldogs.
"We've just been fortunate to get so many kids playing close to home, let alone Noel," Gaspari said. "It's nice to see them all in the mix and playing on Saturdays."
Never too early: Registration for the fourth annual Advocate Dreyer Fox Valley Marathon races in September 2013 is set to open Dec. 3 at www.fv26.com, about seven weeks earlier than last year.
"This gives runners a chance to give marathon registration as a Christmas gift or a New Year's resolution," marathon co-organizer Dave Sheble said. "... But we also wanted to get the charities as much time to coordinate things for the runners who register through them."
Marathon weekend includes a health and fitness expo (Sept. 20-21), the CASA Kane County Fox Valley Kids Marathon (Sept. 21) and the traditional slate of events on Sunday, Sept. 22 – the half marathon, Fall Final 20 and Fox Valley Marathon.
A special registration event will be held at the St. Charles Dick Pond Athletics, 303 N. 2nd St., from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. Dec. 1. Interested athletes can register by cash or check that day, with the first 50 registrants receiving a free Fox Valley Marathon oval magnet.
Sheble said prices still are being finalized.
Tiger tale: Kaneland and Lincoln-Way West shared a football field during this past weekend's 5A second-round playoff game in New Lenox. Although one end of the equation is slightly less direct, both schools also boast ties to the AL champion Detroit Tigers.
A left-hander in the Tigers' organization, Kaneland product Casey Crosby made three starts for Detroit during a June call-up, going 1-1 with a 9.49 ERA in 121⁄3 innings.
Tigers bullpen catcher Jeff Kunkel, meanwhile, is the twin of Lincoln-Way West activities director Heather Novak.

The long-awaited design of a $1-billion hotel and office skyscraper to be built in downtown Los Angeles -- soon to be tallest building in the West -- was unveiled Thursday by developer Korean Airlines.
At 73 stories, the tower at Wilshire Boulevard and Figueroa Street will be a dramatic addition to the city skyline and a symbol of South Korea's growing status as a global economic powerhouse.
The Wilshire Grand will slightly surpass in height the 72-story U.S. Bank Tower on Bunker Hill that has held the title of tallest west of Chicago since 1989. Korean Air is already at work dismantling the shuttered 1950s-era Wilshire Grand Hotel at Wilshire and Figueroa to make way for the glass-clad tower expected to be completed in 2017.
PHOTOS: The five tallest buildings in L.A.
Korean Air has served Los Angeles for more than 40 years and owned the Wilshire Grand since 1989.
"The new Wilshire Grand is an investment that makes sense and we are excited to continue our relationship with this great city," Korean Air Chairman Y.H. Cho said.

Courtney Black
Courtney Black
Courtney was always the class clown and the "crazy" one of the group. However, no one, not even this former laboratory scientist, believed she would be sharing that 'gift' and gracing the stages of renowned comedy clubs.
Originally from Washington, D.C., Courtney moved to Los Angeles after obtaining her Bachelor of Science degree in Biology from Clark Atlanta University and a 2nd Bachelor of Science degree in Medical Technology from Meharry Medical College in Nashville, Tennessee. She was working in L.A. doing cancer research when she was reminded of performing as a child. Courtney was either in dance recitals or plays and always using her quick-witted, animated behavior. So, she decided to exercise her funny bone and hasn't looked back since. Courtney's past jobs, including being a substitute teacher, makes for great material. She also discusses her East coast upbringing, adventures in dating, and overall observations of life. Her charming and energetic stage persona allows her to hit the stage with confidence, gaining acclaim and notoriety as a professional stand-up comedian, and she shows no signs of slowing down.
GQ (Gentleman's Quarterly) Magazine named Courtney "The Next Big Thing" in its March 2003 Hollywood Issue. Comedian J. Anthony Brown, owner and operator of The J Spot Comedy Club in Los Angeles, California, honored her with the Spotlight Award for Outstanding Performance & Contribution to the Comedy Industry in May 2009 just a year after starting her standup career. Courtney performs at The Comedy Store, the Ontario and Hollywood Improvs, Flappers, The Laugh Factory, The Ice House, as well as many other venues in and around Los Angeles County. Courtney also HOSTS several comedy shows and charity events. She was even hired to do a show in Africa where Courtney entertained dignitaries from around the world. Thru comedy Courtney hopes to see much more of the world and make them laugh.
Courtney has appeared in national commercials for 7-UP, Sony PlayStation2, and most recently Ford. She has also had roles in the feature films, "Like Mike", "Raising Helen", "Stealing Harvard", "EXORCISM" and "Peter's Price".

For the Pointers, despite finishing 8-4 overall (4-1, second place in league) the 12 selections are a tribute to the team's talent and work ethic.
Western League champion Madison High, which edged the Pointers 28-14 on Nov. 2 for the league crown, went on to both a local CIF Div. IV and state CIF Div. III championship.
All-Western League honors went to the following Pointers:
• First team, offense:
Jake Wambaugh, (Jr.): (6'3," 250 pounds) The junior tight end was singled out for his blocking skills that helped produce 2,586 rushing yards for the Pointers. He also is a starter at defensive end.
Mark Nou, (Sr.): Far from the biggest of offensive linemen (5'10," 210 pounds), Nou proved to be a tenacious blocker while anchoring the Pointer run and pass blocking.
• First team, defense:
Western League "Defensive Player of the Year:" Jamal Agnew, (Sr.): A fearless player who, at 5'8" and 150 pounds, drew reactions from crowds as he racked up 72 tackles. He grabbed six pass interceptions and returned punts and kickoffs, scoring touchdowns in each. Pound-for-pound, one of the county's top players.
Zach Eischen, (Sr.): After making the jump from freshman team to varsity as a sophomore, Eischen excelled. From his free safety position, the 6'2," 195-pounder was credited with 67 tackles this season and returned four interceptions 126 yards, scoring twice.
Greg Verdugo, (Sr.): From his linebacker position, Verdugo, in his No. 53 jersey, wreaked havoc on opponents' offensive plans. The 6-foot, 200-pounder led the Pointers with 94 tackles and was credited with three sacks, broke up three passes and blocked a punt.
Steven Arreola, (Sr.): One of the Pointers' big men on the defensive line (6 feet, 275 pounds), Arreola made life miserable for opposing offensive linemen. He was credited with 85 tackles (second on the team) and also was credited with one sack and a fumble recovery.
• Second team, offense:
Branden Martin, (Sr.): Transferring to Point Loma for his junior year, Martin quickly moved from third-string junior varsity to varsity starter, where he remained. He accounted for nearly 800 yards (468 passing, 324 running) and 10 touchdowns.
Dirk Lacy, (Jr.): Led the team with 735 yards rushing this season (6.8 yards per carry average). The 5'10," 175-pounder scored six touchdowns. He will return as the Pointers' top back next season.
Jovanny Sanchez, (Sr.): Proved himself a standout as a member of Dogs offensive line that put up 307 points in 12 games. The 6-foot, 220-pounder also wrestles.
• Second team, defense:
Grant Wilburn, (Sr.): Cornerback who was in on 35 tackles, quick defender (5'8," 155 pounds) picked off four passes and recovered a fumble. Also a starter in basketball.
Sydney Rush, (Sr.): Racked up 31 tackles on defense from his defensive back position. Had one interception, also returned kickoffs and played running back (278 yards).
Jake Virissimo, (Soph.): The defensive end caused problems all year long as he repeatedly infiltrated enemy backfields. Credited with a team-leading 3.5 sacks, Virissimo (6 feet, 190 pounds) caused a fumble and blocked a punt. The sophomore has two more seasons as a Pointer.
Awards banquet
Head coach Mike Hastings and his staff presented team awards at a Jan. 12 banquet held at the Phil's BBQ Event Center:
Team captains: Johnny Maes, Nou, Eischen and Agnew
Most Inspirational Player: Maes
Scout Team Offense Player of the Year: Abel Martinez
Scout Team Defense Player of the Year: Arreola
Coach Bill Hastings Specialist Player of the Year: Miguel Alcantar
Special Teams Player of the Year: Agnew
Coach Steve Harrow Memorial Award: Sanchez and Martin
Coach Bennie Edens Award: Verdugo and Wilburn
Staff Sgt. Jimmie Howard "Semper Fi" Award: Kevin Ford
Most Improved Academics Award: Brian Thepkaysone
• Maes, who tore all his knee ligaments, dislocated his knee and suffered nerve damage in his leg during the Homecoming game, attended the banquet. He is now walking on crutches while awaiting further surgeries.
• Staff Sgt. Jimmie Howard, who passed away in 1993, was a Point Loma resident and recipient of the Congressional Medal of Honor, the Silver Star and three Purple Hearts. He served as a volunteer coach on the Pointer staff.
• The Pointer staff bid farewell to 25 seniors, several of whom will likely continue playing at the college level.
• Members of an undefeated (9-0) junior varsity and 8-1 freshman team will supply new varsity talent.
• The school's new weight room is being heavily used on a daily basis for strength and endurance building by football returnees and candidates.
• Hastings hopes to have next season's schedule completed soon.

Village Supermarket needed a new logo design and created a contest on 99designs.
A winner was selected from 76 designs submitted by 20 freelance designers.
Village Supermarket
Village Supermarket is a high end supermarket in Dar Es Salam and Arusha, Tanzania. The store is based on importing food and goods from international locations, which makes Village Supermarket the sole provider of many of these items.
Village Supermarket works to provide their customers with high end food, wine and fresh goods. The space also includes an in-house bakery.
Customers include people in Tanzania who value food and goods imported into the country from North America, United Kingdom and United Arab Emirates.
Comparable retailers:
A logo that says "Village Supermarket" that can be used as the physical sign atop the front of the supermarket (possibly in freestanding metal letters) as well as the website and stationary.
The previous logo included an image of a shopping cart. The new logo should be something simple, tasteful easily legible and more text than image focused. A view of the logo should convey the tasteful nature of Village Supermarket and compliment the exceptional goods that Village Supermarket have made available in Tanzania.
Traditional colours for Village Supermarket have been dark blue and gold. Those can be incorporated as well as more subtle colour combinations including black and white.
Secondary name: VSM

Miscues derail Dodgers' bid for series sweep
LOS ANGELES -- Fans allowed on the field for Father's Day catch at Dodger Stadium late Sunday put on a better display than the Dodgers did in losing to Arizona, 6-3, against a pitcher likely headed for the disabled list.
Regressing to April's sloppy play, the Dodgers missed a series sweep and snapped a season-high string of seven consecutive errorless games, with three of the D-backs' runs tainted by misplays.View Full Game Coverage

Starter Josh Beckett, frequently left wanting for run support, this time was the victim of poor defense. His frustration was obvious in the dugout and the clubhouse.
"Everything that could go wrong, did go wrong," said Beckett, clearly annoyed.
Beckett (4-4) struck out six without a walk in seven innings. Bronson Arroyo (7-4) got the win, despite pitching only five innings, throwing no pitch harder than 85 mph and afterward saying he'll probably be disabled with a sore elbow.
"It's getting to the point where it's just too much pain and it's just too difficult to get big league hitters out with that velocity," said Arroyo.
Dodgers mistakes weren't limited to defense. Short-circuiting a potential comeback, catcher Drew Butera was caught overrunning third base on Justin Turner's RBI pinch-double off the fence in the seventh inning. Butera picked up coach Lorenzo Bundy's stop sign too late to return safely. It was the second time in the series that a Dodgers catcher wasn't aware of a Bundy stop sign.
"I was being too aggressive," said Butera. "I thought I could score and picked up the stop sign too late."
Paul Goldschmidt checked in with another first-inning home run, a solo shot on a hanging Beckett curveball. The Dodgers tied it in the second with a walk, an infield single and a pair of groundouts, Jamie Romak's cue-shot scoring the run. Romak started at third base because Turner's calf is still sore, and the thin bench proved especially vulnerable in the eighth inning, when manager Don Mattingly let Romak bat with one out, runners on the corners and Andre Ethier available after being left out of the starting lineup.
Romak, batting .083 at the time, grounded into an inning-ending double play.
Mattingly defended his decision not to bat Ethier for Romak.
"It was either going to be Romak or Butera, and we felt like Romak was really actually a pretty good matchup," he said. "He hits that low ball, he hits the ball that comes into him down there. We felt like he was a good matchup there. And then we'd have 'Dre right there in the next spot or even the pitcher's spot. We'd consider A.J. [Ellis] there, too."
Arizona reclaimed the lead in the fifth with a two-out double by David Peralta, who stole third without a throw when the Dodgers were caught sleeping. That cost a run when Butera couldn't corral Beckett's wild pitch. Further trouble was averted when a powerful assist from Yasiel Puig cut down Cody Ross trying to stretch a single into a double.
The Dodgers defense imploded in Arizona's two-run seventh. There was mass confusion on a slow ground ball Miguel Montero hit to second baseman Dee Gordon, with first baseman Adrian Gonzalez breaking for the ball, then stopping and not covering first, and Beckett's late break to cover the bag a futile exercise.
"I didn't see it off the bat, and then when I saw it, I thought it was going to be in between us," said Gonzalez. "So I went to it ... it was one of those that kind of sneaks by us because we went after it. You got to make one decision one way or another. My instincts went toward second base. I asked Donnie [Mattingly, former Gold Glove first baseman] afterwards, and he said if it's a ball to the right side, for the most part, pitcher's got to break there.
"I went and asked him. I said, 'How'd you see it? I didn't see it off the bat, and it broke. Should I have broken the other way?' And he said, 'No, because if your instincts say go after the ball and you go to first base and that ball gets through, then they look at you and say, 'Well, why didn't you go after the ball?'' You got to make the decision and just go with it."
Next, left fielder Matt Kemp didn't hustle for Aaron Hill's single to left, his late throw to third base allowing Montero and Hill to take extra bases. Gordon then booted Martin Prado's grounder with infielders in as two runs scored.
In the seventh, the first four Dodgers hitters reached base, with the injured Turner (.400 with runners in scoring position) delivering his clutch double. But compounding Butera's mistake, Hanley Ramirez struck out and Puig tapped back to the pitcher.
After the Dodgers squandered their chances, Arizona put the game away on Montero's two-run homer off Chris Perez in the ninth.

Yesterday I started thinking about all my data and how it is backed up.
I use a Time Machine from Apple which automatically backs up every hour or so. It's great to go back to recover an old file.
In fact two weeks ago I accidentally deleted a page on my Newspaper lookup spreadsheet. (This is the speadsheet I create with publication dates of death and funeral announcements taken from the Ryerson Index. i.e. those that are not on Trove or the Sydney Morning Herald Archives site. When I am in Armidale I go to the University and look up these dates in the microfilmed newspapers.)
Fortunately I was able to go back into the Time Machine and recover an earlier version of the document. Lucky this happened two weeks ago as last week my Time Machine died. I am now paranoid that my laptop will die before I get a replacement. However, I have been backing up my genealogy files each night. I also have some information backed up on Dropbox and still more in iCloud so hopefully I have everything covered.
Then today I realised I had never backed up by blog. I would be upset if I lost it and as a consequence all the work that has gone into producing it over the last 2 years.
So this afternoon, I discovered that it was simple to back up my blog.
How long is it since you have backed up your data?
Perhaps you should do it now!

I have a lot going on this weekend, nothing life altering, unless you want details that would put you to sleep about the happenings/meetings/projects of the week, so in the gap of time between here and real posting material, this is a question I've been pondering for awhile:
If you had a theme song for your life, what would it be?
I saw this episode of Ally McBeal (sp?) a million years ago where she had this theme song and she'd be walking along and just need a boost or courage etc and she'd start hearing that in her head. For the last year and a half, mostly in the morning, when someone ask me at work how things are going I usually sing them a stanza of "I'm Still Standing" by Elton John.....we usually chuckle about it. Before that I figured my theme song was "Dancing Queen" by Abba, not because I am that, but because it got me moving, hyped me up etc. Last night I heard "You Ain't Seen Nothing Yet"......I thought that was fun. I'm undecided on the question. Now it's your turn, I'd be interesting to know, what would be the theme song for your life, or just this year? This week? Whatever.... Go ahead, be BRAVE!

Thoughts of the Day....
-Holly went back to college this weekend.....I'm excited to hear about your year, Holly, but miss you a lot when you are gone!
-I heard about this book today called Marley and Me, it's supposed to be this amazing, cute, true story about a man and his bad lab, I know in the end the dog passes away, as all dogs do, so I don't know if I can read it, I know it's a part of having a dog, letting them go, but I know too I'm going to have so many connections with 'Max and Me'....who would have thought someone could have written our life story :O).....and so many people could connect with a bad lab story! I sure do love that little large boy, who chewed up ANOTHER pair of my dress shoes while I was at church today.....
-Lastly, I just purchased 4 Nascar tickets for the race in November. Sme of the other people don't even know they are for sure going yet ;o).....though they knew I was supposed to be getting them. It may be my first, and last race, unless someone else is buying, but I wanted to see what my brother loves so much about this sport.....at least once, right? It should be interesting....Nicole, are you guys coming down? You know you are welcome here anytime if you need a place.....though the welcoming committee can be a little overwhelming, in November they should be fine with spending most of the day outside :O).

Weekend Update.....
Yesterday I headed to Mr. M's wife's funeral. It was a really nice service, VERY long, which I'm not used to, the pastor gave a full cermon, but listening to it I knew, from what I know about Mr. Middlebrook it was something he needed the most, and we all needed to hear. I've never seen so many people at a funeral, it completely filled a very large church, I can't estimate how many hundreds of people were there, I'd say well over 400. We waited in line for about an hour, but we finally had to leave b/c subs were holding down the fort in our classrooms. Several of us are going by Monday with dinner, so I'll chat with him then. They are both pretty amazing people, his wife started a women's crisis center in the area years before they were even a common word to hear. It's good to know great people.....it gives me a goal and a hero.
Friday afternoon I met a friend of mine for coffee, Angie, who used to work with me. She's working and trying to start a floral business on the side, it looks like she has two weddings lined up for October that I may go help her create bouquets for. I enjoy being around flowers, so I'm always excited when she has a wedding :O).
Tonight I'm headed out to a concert by this local Women's singing group, one of my Mom's friends that I know well is in it and we have been saying we will attend a concert sometime, and tomorrow is church in the morning and lunch out with Mary and Sonia. Life is busy, life is good....

Blogger Junkies....
This one is for Marie.....just so I don't disappoint the masses (all both of you).....I have committed to Marie to blog a lot more....I've been a little lax b/c I didn't have much to say, but you know....I'm REALLY good at talking about nothing. Actually, I left all my digital cards to have all the digitals developed and so I don't have any new pictures to post, so I haven't posted anything in awhile....but here goes a few things going on in my life: 1. I went by and bought more sprinkles today....stupid dog. 2. Feeling blue for my classroom volunteer, Art, his wife passed away this Monday from leukemia. They are the most AMAZING couple in the world, when I grow up I want to be just like them. She was 74, and led such a full life, but it never seems like enough time unless people as kind and wholesome as they are can be immortal....but then I remember.....they are, it's not the end of her story, her story has a very happy ending indeed. I'm taking by brownies tomorrow and we have arranged dinner every night next week with other gals at work, though I know we will be competing with a whole crowd of well wishers! My kids LOVE him and all wrote the sweetest letters, did I mention how sweet this group was? They just can't do homework worth squat, but we are working on that.....I also really like the new principal, she just 'listens' and I felt like she's there to make my life easier! 3. Have I ever mentioned I love this show called Miami Ink? I would never in a million years get a tattoo (nothing personal to those of you with them, it's just not 'me' as if that shocks you...with a bunch of other issues tied in as well), but for some reason this show, which is all about this tattoo parlor and the stories behind the tattoos these guys are doing on individuals just totally fascinates me, season two has started....don't be surprised if I won't talk to you on Tuesday nights ;o) 4. Guess what September 1 is? My Mom's one year anniversary of being cancer free, yippee!

Puppy for sale.....
Free to a good home....scratch that....free to ANY home other than mine. I'm going to seriously be put into some sort of doggy jail for what I feel like doing to Max. Those of you that know me well (which is all of you, hello, not just ANYBODY got the email with my blog site ;o)) know that it's all the about the details for me. I've been searching for months for the perfect sprinkle to go on this little dessert I'm making for a shower I'm hosting a month from now. I go into this gormet cake shop less than a week ago and low and behold, the perfect sprinkles. I got myself a big ole bottle of sprinkles....think of those little rainbow sprinkle bottles on steroids. It's all good, I can use that puppy for years to come. TODAY WHEN I GOT HOME MAX CHEWED OPEN THE THICK, PLASTIC BOTTLE AND ATE ALL 20,000 OR SO SPRINKLES...in the process he also stained parts of my carpet pink. I guess he couldn't finish them so he left a thousand or so on the carpet. This time, as soon as he comes out of his sugar coma he and I are having it out. On the other hand.....if sprinkles are the worst of my problems this week, I guess you can chalk this one off to a successful week. I think I'm going to go see about selling an organ on ebay to raise funds to get enough gas to drive out and buy MORE SPRINKLES!!!! OK....I think I'm done....yep.....pretty much finished with the story.

A Week in Review.....
In the teaching world they always refer to the first few days as the 'honeymoon'.....I'm planning on letting my honeymoon last until next June. It was nice to get a fresh batch! No drama within the four walls of my classroom, though there is a lot of talk amongst teachers regarding all the change this years. I tried to go out with everyone on Friday evening, but it was too negative, I want to avoid that for awhile, and I feel really bad for the new teachers. In college they always said to avoid the teacher's lounge b/c all you heard was gossip and negativity....that popped into my head Friday night as well. I definitely don't want to be one of those examples!

Five Hundred, Twenty-Five Thousand, Six Hundred Minutes....
....how do you measure a year? The song is spinning through my head as I prepared for my 'first day' of school with the students back. It's really cute to see the kiddos on the first day in their new little outfits no matter WHAT age they are, by day two it's all too easy to become immune! I even bought a new outfit for the occasion (a shopping trip with a great discount just happened to coincide with this Monday, so I'm taking advantage of it). I look forward to posting the latest as the year progresses.

Thank you, Jason and Nicole :O)
Thanks to Nicole and Jason, I now have a LIGHT in my closet (and no reason not to attempt to look super cute every day of the week now that I can see the clothes I'm picking out!). Three years ago I was standing on 'something' in my closet....probably very unsafe and unstable knowing my climbing choices and I started to tumble...I grabbed the, oh so sturdy, light pull to catch myself and pulled the whole thing down with me. SO, for three years I've had no light (b/c I unscrewed it) in my closet and a light socket stuck on 'on.' About four months ago I was going to be really handy and repair it myself, anything that inexpensive shouldn't be too hard to fix, right? 4 months later I had opened the box and mentioned to Nicole I had this plan to fix it (people have taken over whole countries with less planning and in a lot less time), and I told her I was contemplating whether or not the electricity needed to be turned off.....she gave me an emphatic 'YES,' and told me the next time they came into town she might could even swing by if I hadn't done it yet.....it's nice to have someone care enough about you not to want to see you electricuted :O). So, today they came into town, and BIG SHOCK, I hadn't done it yet. They agreed to overlook my very neglected, dusty house and dead plants (I've been away for three weekends, and lazy for even longer!), and they repaired my light in about a tenth of the time it would have taken me (Jason did wire duty and Nicole held the flashlight very steady ;o) and gave commentary for my benefit and entertainment and I located my pink tool kit for them to use, hey, a girls gotta do her share of the work, you know?). I have now seen a light socket replaced, and though I hope to not have a need to replace another anytime soon, I now...maybe..could do it. Trust me when I say this is one of the biggest accomplishments this year.....it'll feel good to cross it off the 'to do list'....though technically I didn't 'do much'....other than establish bonds with the right friends :O). It's good to know people, it's even better to know good people! We also hit the ice cream shop (of course) and Muffin appreciated some attention and petting from Nicole and Jason, she appreciates people that appreciate her!

Hi Ho, Hi Ho It's Off To Work I Go....
It's my third post today, but I have a lot to say, after a semi drought in blogging! I know this is going to induce a lot of sympathy in you guys (as Marie called to express on Friday with her "HA HA" comment starting out the conversation as she called to rub in the fact that I have to 'return' to work ;oP). Yes, it's true, tomorrow is the first official day back for all the teachers in the district. If it makes you feel any better, I've been back, pretty much full time for over two weeks, and there have only been about two weeks during the summer that I haven't had to present a workshop, or attend a meeting several days....if not all of them, but it was a nice summer and I definitely enjoy this perk of my job! AND I have a REALLY long summer to look forward to next year b/c they just passed a law that school can't start until Labor Day! I'm already planning my vacations! In the meantime, I am looking forward to the school year, so far so good, send up a prayer for my students and I as we begin a journey through a year in the life of 6th graders! AND maybe I can actually return some of those calls you guys have been making since I won't be sleeping late and staying up later....I'm sorry, I'm sorry.....I'm gonna try to call you guys like a bill collector from now on!

A Blue Flower
This is Muffin's Mom, Lindsey, AKA, Holly's cat. No, she doesn't normally wear the blue flower around her neck, but she had a mishap during a daring attempt to nap on a counter in a box...the old saying...."A cat always lands on their feet." didn't apply in this case. She ended up breaking her leg when the box tumbled down with her in it. She's on the mend, but her attempt to help along the process by escaping from the blue collar and licking her stitches raw has caused her to be sentenced to another week in the flower petals!

August 5th, we celebrated Holly's 21rst birthday! We actually began the celebration on the 4th with dinner out and cake....then it carried over into the 5th with a little surprise breakfast before we headed out to Shreveport, LA. It takes over 3 hours to get there, though I didn't time it, it seems closer to 4 in my estimation, but it's worth the trip. We stayed at the Isle of Capri, which has now changed it's name (and soon it's theme) to Diamond Jacks, after a stop at the Cracker Barrel (Holly's favorite) for lunch. We swam in the hotel pool, which was very nice, then put Holly's new age to use in the casinos. We ran some money through the slot machines, and SOME of us were more successful than others, though success=just about breaking even for most, with a few bucks extra for spending)....the experience was what we were going for. We got it....WE also hit up the all you can eat buffet, and ate pretty much "all we could eat." Then we played around in the jacuzzi in the room, which was huge! This morning we got up and went to the pool (the third time in a swimsuit in less than 24 hours)....then drove home via a stop in Tyler for bbq and ice cream (another of Holly's favorites).

Charlie Mitchell's Between The Lines shows this month highlight his conversations with Ken Cribb, Bluffton High School's football coach.
Cribb provides an overview of what's in store for Bluffton's 2012 season, including the season opener against Whale Branch High School on Aug. 17 under the lights at the newly renovated Bluffton High School Stadium. Cribb covers what he expects from the team as it moves up to compete in the Region 4A Conference. BHS's traditional rival, Hilton Head High School, remains on the schedule and is expected to be a sellout in mid-September. Cribb appears this week and the week of July 16-22.
Mitchell's other guests this month are Ty Rietkovich, USCB's softball coach and interim athletic director, and Ed Heberling, USCB woman's soccer coach.
Rietkovich reviews the USCB's spring athletics and the baseball team's appearance in the 2012 NAIA World Series in Idaho and the softball team's outstanding performance in its first season, with 37 wins and 11 losses under his leadership. Not to be overlooked are the USCB golf teams' top finishes. On the same program, Mitchell interviews Heberling as the team prepares for its second season beginning in late August. With a mix of seasoned returning players and a cadre of recruits, Heberling has confidence in the 2012 program. Rietkovich and Heberling appear on the show during the weeks of July 9-15 and July 23-29.

The Doctor's Orders & Soundcrash present two Hip-Hop giants going head to head...
MR THING, and CHRIS P CUTS
9pm-3am SATUDAY 21 APRIL
1a Camden High Street London NW1
Early Bird Tickets only £9.50 from …
Then £15.50 advance from - http://tinyurl.com/87rpjcq
Soundcrash & The Doctor's Orders are proud to present a meeting of two giants as Jurassic 5's DJ Nu-Mark goes head to head with A Tribe Called Quest's Ali Shaheed Muhammad in the Hip-Hop DJ battle to end all battles!
Recent Zulu Nation inductee Nu-Mark's DJ sets have become infamous for his creativity and ingenuity. As a member of the legendary Jurassic 5 he graced the group with precision production and cutting edge stage routines. Best known for his production on the raw anthem "What's Golden" such creativity only hinted at the visionary creativity Nu-Mark has explored since Jurassic 5's breakup in 2006, which is incidentally the last time he has played in the UK. Today Nu-Mark experiments with children's music toys and constructs full DJ sets around toys most people dispose of by the time their kids are old enough to read, and we'll be able to see some of that on the night! (check it out - http://youtu.be/Bb4etMWgEyU)
Sharing the bill with Nu-Mark is none other than A Tribe Called Quest DJ Ali Shaheed Muhammad. An integral part of ATCQ's iconic productions, Ali joined J-Dilla and Q-Tip in the collective The Ummah and later formed Lucy Pearl with Raphael Saadiq. With a resumé like that you'd think one would want to live off the inertia and lazy about, but Ali Shaheed decided to prove that he wasn't just another Hip-Hop DJ and published his solo album in which he was able to explore more of his music abilities and influences.
Keeping proceedings fresh will be the usual quality selection of DJs you've come to expect from both Soundcrash & The Doctor's Orders, headed by resident and DMC UK Champion Mr Thing, The Doctor's Orders own Spin Doctor & Chris P Cuts.

Restaurant Review
A legend reincarnated
"Is the oktapodi any good?" I asked the server just before ordering.
He was standing behind the register at Zorba's, the two-year-old restaurant started by the former owners of the Olympia Café. He looked at me for a moment, then responded. "Well, I hate octopus, so..."
"So you hate this?"
"Yeah. I hate it."
I was a little taken aback, but I also admire openness in a restaurant's staff. It's refreshing to hear someone's honest opinion. It made me feel like I could trust the place.
"I'll go ahead and have the oktapodi," I answered. What the hell? I've never had octopus before, but I like calamari, and a squid is pretty much just a stupider octopus, right?
When I was a lonely freshman at UNM, the nearby Olympia Café was a sanctuary. On sleeting winter evenings, I'd huddle up in a faux-leather booth and sip on thick coffee between bites of roasted chicken and Greek salad. From the kitschy '70s-esque decor, to the bustle and shouts from the open kitchen, I loved eating in that cozy, familial atmosphere, and the low prices didn't hurt.
A few years back, the Café was sold to new owners, and I was sad to hear it. Oh well; time's river flows ever onward.
Then I heard a rumor: The owners of Olympia Café had been bored out of retirement and started a new restaurant. I shrugged off my meditations on mortality, grabbed my wife, and drove to the Northeast Heights to recapture my lost youth. Or at least shove some of that Olympia roasted chicken in my face.
The first thing I noticed about Zorba's was how modern it is. In the same strip center as the Montgomery Il Vicino, Zorba's seems to have taken a decorating page from its neighbor. The space is open, with tile floors, granite-patterned table tops and svelte wooden chairs. The second thing I noticed was that the place was spotless. For all my fond memories of the Olympia Café, the joint was never exactly sparkling. And the third thing I noticed was that my wife and I were offered a free sample of gyro meat. It's 80 percent beef, 20 percent lamb, the woman who offered it to us said, and it was leaner than I remembered — less greasy, but just as flavorful.
Then I heard a rumor: The owners of Olympia Café had been bored out of retirement and started a new restaurant. I shrugged off my meditations on mortality, grabbed my wife, and drove to the Northeast Heights to recapture my lost youth.
After ordering, I scanned the kitchen behind the register. It was still bustling, but the faces of the cooks were all different, except — yes! I spotted the mustached man who used to shout exuberantly in a heavy Greek accent while turning gyro meat at Olympia. I've never spoken a word to him, but it was like seeing an old friend.
We took our seats at a window overlooking the small outdoor patio, and the appetizers arrived soon after. First up was the massive Minotaur sampler ($15.95), an expanse of food that threatened to swallow our table. The sampler features pita bread, olives and dolmathes, and four bowls to dip them into. The hummus was smooth and cool. The tzatziki, a creamy cucumber and garlic dip, lacked the sour bite that I associate with the sauce and was heavier than I expected. I asked the server about it, and he told me that Zorba's uses sour cream for the base instead of the traditional yogurt. A third bowl held feta cheese, crumbly and aromatic. Finally, the melitzanosalata, an eggplant-based dip, was fresh, delicate and with seasoning that balanced the bitterness that usually makes me wary of eggplant dishes. I used more pita scooping that up than anything else.
We then started in on the oktapodi ($8.45) the server had warned us about. It was a pile of small purple tentacles drizzled with olive oil. Not exactly an appetizing presentation, but I suppose there's only so much that can be done with octopus, and disguising the fact that you're eating tentacles is probably not an option. The octopus was surprisingly tender, and the sparkle of wine vinegar with faintly peppery oil made me very happy for the first few bites. Then another flavor began to creep in, strengthening as I worked my way through the plate. The octopus' aftertaste was exactly like canned tuna fish. I looked across the room and briefly locked eyes with the man who had taken my order. It may have been my imagination, but I thought he nodded knowingly.
My paidakía (lamb chops, $26.95) soon arrived, and they were beautiful. Four thin chops, grilled brown and speckled with pepper and spices on a bed of orzo (rice-shaped pasta that pops when chewed) with a side of salad. The aroma of the chops was too much for me to resist, and I immediately dug in. And holy god, these were the best lamb chops I have ever had. They were juicy and filled my mouth with rich flavor, enhanced by the liberal amount of pepper and mild Greek spices.
My wife had the one-quarter Greek chicken dinner ($8.25) which had originally provoked my Olympian nostalgia. It was just as good as I remembered, with slightly crispy skin, moist tender meat, flavored with herbs and spices. She had rice pilaf on the side, as well as a cup of bean soup called fasolatha ($2.95), which the server told her was the "national dish of Greece." After tasting it, I can commend the Greek people on their choice of a representative soup. It's made with white beans with chunks of carrot and other fresh vegetables. It was thick and hot; the brown broth savory with a muted, deep flavor. The beans were slightly firm, but gave easily when chewed. Although the flavors are wildly different, a taste of this soup gave the same kind of inner warmth as green chile stew or minestrone served in a relative's kitchen on a winter evening.
We finished the meal and gazed, blinking, across the plate-strewn table at each other. Had we really eaten that much food?
As we left, I was satisfied that the spirit of the original Olympia Café lives on in this new location. The heart of the place remains the same, even if the name and decor has changed and the menu has expanded significantly. In fact, I'd say that almost everything I tried at Zorba's was superior to the food that fueled my nostalgia for the old Olympia. Well, everything except the oktapodi.
But maybe I just hate octopus.

Leonard J. Chabert Medical Center in Houma is preparing for the possibility of another round of devastating budget cuts.
Leonard J. Chabert Medical Center in Houma is preparing for the possibility of another round of devastating budget cuts.
Administrators have been asked to draft a number of budget scenarios, including one that would cut 34.5 percent of the hospital's budget, said Rhonda Green, Chabert Medical Center's CEO. That's just below the 35 percent that would require legislative approval.
"We are working with our new leadership in Baton Rouge," Green said.
The state-run charity hospital, which provides care to many of the Houma-Thibodaux area's poor and uninsured, has an annual budget of $93.2 million and employs 840 people.
Charity hospitals in Baton Rouge, Lafayette, New Orleans, Independence, Bogalusa and Lake Charles have been given similar directives by the system's top executive, Frank Opelka. State officials are reacting to significant federal budget cuts to Medicaid and other programs that have helped sustain the hospitals.
There's no time line for when the budget cuts might be implemented, said Marvin McGraw, a spokesman for the LSU Health Care Services Division, the agency that oversees Chabert and other state charity hospitals.
But hospitals are preparing budget-cutting plans to submit to the agency. An overall plan for the system is expected to be presented to the LSU Board of Supervisors in October.
State Sen. Norby Chabert, R-Houma, who has led efforts to shield the Houma hospital from deep budget cuts, said all options are on the table to ensure the hospital remains functioning and open.
The hospital is named for Chabert's father, the late Leonard J. Chabert, who helped establish the medical center as a senator in the same seat decades earlier.
Chabert Medical Center has already dealt with several major budget cuts this year. In July, the hospital undertook a number of cost-saving measures, scaling back overtime and elective surgeries and delaying remodeling projects to absorb a $3.7 million budget cut.
Those cuts came after the state learned in late June that Congress was going to require $859 million in cuts to its Medicaid program. The Jindal administration applied a third of those cuts, $276 million, to the public hospitals run by the LSU Health Care Services Division. Through administrative changes and plans at other hospitals, the impact was whittled to $43 million throughout the LSU hospital system.
In March, a $2.9 million mid-year budget cut forced Chabert Medical Center to close its labor-and-delivery unit and lay off more than 100 employees — about 10 percent of its staff.
State Rep. Gordon Dove, R-Houma, said he's hoping a new state budget surplus of $130 million announced this week will be used to help mitigate hospital budget cuts.
"I think now that you have this $130 million, it should weigh heavily toward the charity hospital system," Dove said. "Someone has to pick up this uncompensated health care, and a closure of Chabert would be devastating to Terrebonne General Medical Center and Thibodaux Regional Medical Center."
He added that the number of uninsured patients seeking care at those hospitals could double.
Local lawmakers have argued that Chabert's efficiency and profitability make it a unique case in the LSU system and have worked to make the hospital more independent of the state.
During this year's legislative session, Chabert introduced a bill that would have transferred the local medical center to a local nonprofit board. The board would have been made up of three representatives from business and academia and another six divided equally between appointments by Jindal and the LSU hospital system.
Chabert said the local lawmakers will continue exploring that option.
State Rep. Joe Harrison, R-Napoleonville, said lawmakers are also looking for new revenue streams to support the charity hospital system.
"We (in Terrebonne and Lafourche) have the economy and the population that's driving the state right now," Harrison said. "Why should we give up what we have built for the failures of the state?"

Profile of Josephine Baker
Name at birth: Freda Josephine Baker
Born in St. Louis, Josephine Baker was a star in Paris for most of her adult life. She left her home in Missouri and began performing in her early teens. She appeared in the chorus lines of all-black revues on New York vaudeville stages, then travelled to Paris in 1925 as part of La Revue Negre. Her lithe body and frank sensuality, combined with her jovial clowning on stage, caused a sensation. She was so successful in Paris that she stayed and opened her own nightclub there, Chez Josephine. Baker was famous for her exotic outfits, her trademarks being a leopard on a leash, a skirt made of feathers, and a dance in which she wore a string of bananas and not much else. She became a citizen of France in 1937, and during World War II she worked with the Resistance against the Nazis. After the war she fought for civil rights in the United States, returned to France and retired in 1956 to look after her 12 adopted children. Baker fell on hard times in the 1960s but was rescued from destitution by Princess Grace of Monaco, who helped Baker put on another stage show, Josephine, in 1975. Baker died the same year and was given a state funeral in Paris.

kdesu is an imporant tool for all apps that need to execute adminstrative tasks, either primarily or for a limited purpose. kdesu works pretty well in the scenario it was created for: gaining super-user privileges using "su" on unix systems. However, this scenario is becoming too limited. Ubuntu now relies on "sudo" for such tasks, and I have no idea how things work on windows. Support for sudo has been added to kdesu, but there are important issues remaining.
The purpose of this page is to collect requirements, design considerations and thoughts on how to make kdesu work well. Then after a while, there would need to be a decision on whether this can be done in the current framework, or whether substantial portions need to be rewritten. Hopefully, later the efforts to do so can be coordinated, here, as well.
A good kdesu implementation should fulfill the following requirements:
Of course this concerns the user side as well, but equally important, apps / scripts using kdesu should not need to worry about too many details. That means:
We're developing a GUI desktop, so it's important that kdesu can successfully invoke X11 applications on all systems.
On systems using sudo, *some* commands may be allowed for a user, but not others. Still, it's conceivable that said user does indeed know the root password and can use su for disallowed in sudo. In this setup it would be preferable to use sudo when possible, but fall back to su in other cases.
Also power-users should have an easy way to specify which backend to use, and potentially, in which way.
Ideally, kdesu should need no special setup on the part of the system administrator, or if it does, only trivial settings. Most importantly it would be good, if /etc/sudoers would need no kdesu-specific adjustments.
This is the simple case. Since a (successful) call to su allows anything to be done, we can just do anything, including setting xauth cookies, etc.
The main challenge is to figure out, when authentification has succeeded or failed, so as to provide meaningful feedback to the user. The current solution is to use a wrapper application (kdesu_stub), which gets called by su. kdesu_stub will indicate when it has been called successfully (and hence authentification has succeeded), then accept options such as an xauth cookie to use, then run the command.
A good level of support for sudo is much harder to achieve. The current implementation relies on the same kdesu_stub helper command, effictively disabling the fine grained permission control of sudo.
The situation could be improved a lot by specifying the command to run as a command line option to kdesu_stub. Still, this would require system administrators to set up additional rules for the purpose of running commands using kdesu. Also some of the actions kdesu_stub allows may be considered highly problematic (for instance it allows the specification of a full environment via stdin).
The most obvious alternative would be to use sudo without any wrapper program, i.e. simply calling "sudo -c command" from within kdesu. However, the following technical problems will be encountered in this case:
no idea on current state or what needs to be done.

Fashion in London is extreme, perverse, and seriously experimental. London designers still stitch their collections on kitchen tables, pawn their mother's jewelry, and generally beg, borrow, and steal to get their collections together. In New York, where designers' collections are guided by retailers, the aesthetic is generally more nervous and better behaved. But in London, wackos like Gareth Pugh send out cyberfreaks in see-through black-striped PVC capes. Alexander McQueen before him specialized in shocking horror corsets made with spikes and pubic-bone-bearing bumsters shown in a Hawksmoor church in Spitalfields (Jack the Ripper territory). London designers love extreme locationsunderground car parks, disused warehouses, former brothelswhereas New Yorkers show in white boxes. London designers invite a crazy mix of guests and revel in real let-your-hair-down, lose-your-house-keys, kiss-a-stranger after-parties. Of course, there comes a time when any London designer must flee the nest and show in New York or Paris, in hopes of attracting bigger bucks.

One shoulder bow dress
Added Dec 29, 2010
by sigrid02
Armidale, Australia
I made this dress for the Wool Fashion Awards Australia and was selected to be paraded at the Royal Easter Show. I made this dress from a pattern i designed and was inspired to do the pleats as they are from a Louis Vuitton dress i saw in VOGUE (There is a picture above)
Material Notes
Fabric was donated to me because i was a first time entrant. They donated the purple fabric (2m max) which was a Italian Woolen Cashmere. It was very hard to work with because it was so thick but it gave a great texture and a great finish. I knitted the bow myself, from a wool/polyester blend.

Looks great! Reminds me of Lady Gaga – in a good way. The large bow is daring and compliments the rest of the dress really well.

text: The Berlin Blockade was an attempt in 1948 by the Soviet Union to limit the ability of France, Great Britain and the United States to travel to their sectors of Berlin, which lay within Russian-occupied East Germany. Eventually, the western powers instituted an airlift that lasted nearly a year and delivered much-needed supplies and relief to West Berlin. Coming just three years after the end of World War II, the blockade was the first major clash of the Cold War and foreshadowed future conflict over the city of Berlin.

Latest Pitt Meadows puzzle features theme celebrating 100 years of the PNE
Just don't expect maze manager Brad Hopcott to know how many stalks that equals.
"Too many to count," says Hopcott on a sweltering day this week.
To get things just perfect, the Hopcotts enlist the services of an American who specializes in carving out these giant puzzles based on client sketches, using GPS, a roto tiller and a tractor.
The result is two different mazes every year, with average solution times ranging from an hour to two hours per maze.
Note the word "average."
Hopcott's brother, Travis, remembers a woman who must have set the unofficial slowest time ever to complete the challenge.
"It took her over four hours."
In addition to the mazes, wee ones can cozy up to the petting zoo while for those young at heart wanting to throw an office gig at the maze, there are "cornporate" rooms that come with barbecue pits.
Personally, I want to take on the maze at night, armed with glowsticks and flashlights, which is totally an option, too. The glowsticks aside, that's not corny at all.
Check out meadowsmaze.com for more.
