LAUSD Superintendent Deasy warns suspending standardized tests would hurt at-risk students
From L.A. Daily News by Barbara Jones:
Los Angeles Unified Superintendent John Deasy has fired off a letter to the California schools chief, protesting plans to suspend many standardized exams next year while the state develops a new system of computer-based tests.
In a two-page letter dated Friday to Superintendent Tom Torlakson, Deasy said the recommendation to drop English and math tests for second-grades, and nearly all standardized exams for high-schoolers, would make it difficult to assess student progress.
The plan, Deasy said, "has implications for school districts in working with our most at-risk populations."
Torlakson did not immediately repond to a request for comment.
In a conference call with reporters last Tuesday, Torlakson outlined his recommendations to the state Legislature to reduce the number of tests in 2013-14. This would allow the state to design and implement a new set of computer-based exams aligned with the Common Core, a national curriculum rolling out the following academic year.
The state would still give English and math tests in grades 3-8 and for science in grades 5, 8 and 10, which are required by the federal government.
Deasy raised concerns last week, then formalized his objections in the letter.

November 15, 2011
Carlson today announced an agreement between Carlson Hotels and Clean the World Global LLC, a social enterprise committed to saving lives and protecting our planet, to collect and recycle hotel soaps, shampoos, conditioners, lotions and gels to help fight the global spread of preventable diseases.
Clean the World presently works with 19 Carlson-affiliated hotels that have contributed more than 8,060 lbs. of soap (nearly 43,000 soap bars). The donated soap provides 8,600 children with enough soap for an entire month.
The agreement, part of Carlson's Responsible Business program, encompasses 607 hotels in North America and represents a significant new corporate partnership for Clean the World, which presently has hospitality partnerships in place with more than 1,200 hotel properties throughout North America.
Each day 9,000 children around the world die from diseases such as acute respiratory illness and diarrheal diseases that can be prevented by washing with bar soap. Clean the World has a mission to put soap in the hands of people who need it most to improve hygiene and sanitation conditions to lessen the impact of disease and promote better hygiene and living conditions worldwide.
"We have a tremendous opportunity and responsibility to lessen the burden of children and families around the world who are struggling with proper hygiene," says Beathe-Jeanette Lunde, executive vice president, People Development, Safety and Security, and Responsible Business, Carlson. "By partnering with Clean the World to collect our soaps and bottled amenities, we truly have a chance to leverage our resources to improve hygiene and sanitation in disadvantaged communities. It's the responsible thing to do."
Clean the World is the largest global recycler of hotel amenities, and in just two years of operation has distributed more than nine million bars of soap to children and families in the United States, Canada and more than 45 countries worldwide. While doing so, the organization has also fulfilled a valuable environmental mission by diverting an estimated 600 tons of hotel waste from polluting landfills in the U.S. and Canada.
"Carlson has signaled its commitment to sustainability and social responsibility by joining our global hygiene revolution," says Shawn Seipler, CEO and co-founder of Clean the World. "This corporate partnership will allow individual Carlson hotel brands and properties in North America to rally around our mission to save lives with soap, and guests can be confident that their amenities, once collected, are part of a lifesaving effort to stop the spread of preventable diseases."
About Clean the World Global LLC
Clean the World Global LLC is a social enterprise committed to saving lives and protecting our planet. It offers sustainable, socially responsible, and charitable programs and services to the international hospitality community. Clean the World Foundation Inc. is the 501 (c) (3) charitable arm of Clean the World Inc. As a private foundation Clean the World Foundation Inc. executes its mission of saving millions of lives around the globe by leading a global hygiene revolution to distribute recycled soap and hygiene products to children and families suffering from high death rates due to the top two killers of children worldwide – acute respiratory infection (pneumonia) and diarrheal diseases (cholera).

The following information is described in this section:
The format utility is most often used by system administrators to partition a disk. The steps are as follows:
Determine which slices are needed.
Determine the size of each slice or partition.
Use the format utility to partition the disk.
Label the disk with new partition information.
Create the file system for each partition.
The easiest way to partition a disk is to use the modify command from the partition menu of the format utility. The modify command enables you to create partitions by specifying the size of each partition, without having to keep track of the starting cylinder boundaries. The modify command also keeps tracks of any disk space that remains in the "free hog" slice.
An important part of the disk label is the partition table. The partition table identifies a disk's slices, the slice boundaries (in cylinders), and the total size of the slices. You can display a disk's partition table by using the format utility. The following table describes partition table terminology.
Table 7-3 Partition Table Terminology
Partition flags and tags are assigned by convention and require no maintenance.
For more information about displaying the partition table, see the following references:
The following format utility output shows an example of a partition table from a 74-GB disk with a VTOC label displayed:
Total disk cylinders available: 38756 + 2 (reserved cylinders) Part Tag Flag Cylinders Size Blocks 0 root wm 3 - 2083 4.00GB (2081/0/0) 8390592 1 swap wu 2084 - 3124 2.00GB (1041/0/0) 4197312 2 backup wm 0 - 38755 74.51GB (38756/0/0) 156264192 3 unassigned wm 0 0 (0/0/0) 0 4 unassigned wm 0 0 (0/0/0) 0 5 unassigned wm 0 0 (0/0/0) 0 6 unassigned wm 0 0 (0/0/0) 0 7 home wm 3125 - 38755 68.50GB (35631/0/0) 143664192 8 boot wu 0 - 0 1.97MB (1/0/0) 4032 9 alternates wu 1 - 2 3.94MB (2/0/0) 8064 partition>
The partition table that is displayed by the format utility contains the following information.
The following is an example of an EFI disk label displayed by using the prtvtoc command.
# prtvtoc /dev/rdsk/c4t1d0s0 * /dev/rdsk/c4t1d0s0 partition map * * Dimensions: * 512 bytes/sector * 2576941056 sectors * 2576940989 accessible sectors * * Flags: * 1: unmountable * 10: read-only * * First Sector Last * Partition Tag Flags Sector Count Sector Mount Directory 0 2 00 34 629145600 629145633 1 4 00 629145634 629145600 1258291233 6 4 00 1258291234 1318633404 2576924637 8 11 00 2576924638 16384 2576941021
The output of the prtvtoc command provides information in the following three sections:
Partition Table
When you use the format utility to change the size of one or more disk slices, you designate a temporary slice that will expand and shrink to accommodate the resizing operations.
This temporary slice donates, or "frees," space when you expand a slice, and receives, or "hogs," the discarded space when you shrink a slice. For this reason, the donor slice is sometimes called the free hog.
The free hog slice exists only during installation or when you run the format utility. There is no permanent free hog slice during day-to-day operations.
For information on using the free hog slice, see SPARC: How to Create a Disk Slice for a ZFS Root File System or x86: How to Replace a ZFS Root Pool Disk (EFI (GPT)).

I drive about 20,000 miles per year on business. I currently have a leased Mercedes SLK (bad move for long distances) that goes back in March. I want something reliable and stylish, maybe an estate, and have a budget of up to £11,000, but would rather spend a bit less. I have looked at Citroën C5s, Jaguar XFs, BMW Tourings, Audi A6 Avants, Jeeps and so on. The best bets seem to be a Mercedes CLS 320 CDI or an XF 2.7 TDVI. What would you buy?
AS, via email
I think a CLS 320 CDI will be more reliable than an XF 2.7. A couple of oddball alternatives are the Renault Laguna Coupé and Peugeot 407 Coupé. The 407 Coupé is one of the quietest cars I've driven.

A portfolio is a place where you store things related to your training,
work experience, contributions, and special accomplishments. It is the
place to document all your work-related talents and accomplishments so
that you have a good sense of your "assets."
An effective portfolio is a visual representation of your experience,
strengths, abilities, skills - the things you like to do, and do best.
There are wide variations in professional portfolios and in where and
how they can be used. Here's a starter list of artifacts to consider.
Begin you collection with whatever is relevant to you.
It is usually best to collect portfolio artifacts while they are being
created, but it is possible to create portfolio items that "represent"
your past accomplishments after the occasion has passed.
(artifacts made on the job/during the volunteer activity, or hobby)
(representations of artifacts made at the time)
Keep in mind that your portfolio displays you to a reviewer; therefore
it must present you in a professional manner. Don't skimp on your
portfolio display system as "the book is often judged by the cover!" Buy
the best quality cover that you can afford; you can use this tool for a
very long time, not just for entry into graduate/professional school
and/or your first professional employment. Acetate or plastic sleeves
are a good way to display and protect materials.
Arrange your portfolio in much the same way you would organize your
resume, showing in priority order your information that relates to the
needs of your reviewer. A well-organized portfolio indicates that you
are a serious candidate. You may choose to include a table of contents
to help direct the reviewer. Plan to label and index materials, placing
like materials together under a labeled tab so that you can turn to that
section easily in the course of conversation with your reviewer.
Your portfolio will not speak for itself; you must explain it. Remember,
your portfolio is a means, not an end! Don't make the mistake of relying
on the portfolio to sell your skills to an interviewer. A good portfolio
can be a big help, but in the end it's you, not the portfolio, that will
need to prove your ability.
Always bring your portfolio to interviews. When the interviewer begins
to ask questions about your resume, you can use your portfolio to
support your responses. For example, an interviewer might say, "I see
that you have worked at your school newspaper. What were your favorite
assignments?" You might reply, "My favorite assignments include this
article (turn portfolio towards the interviewer and show him/her the
article in the portfolio) that required a lot of research and this
creative writing piece (show article) that I wrote for a special
During some interviews, you may not have the time to show your portfolio
to the reviewer in detail. If possible, carry extra copies of pieces of
which you are most proud (or those most relevant for that given
interview) so you can offer them to the reviewer to examine. If you have
a series of on-site interviews scheduled throughout the day with several
representatives of the same employer, offer to leave your portfolio with
the key person while, for instance, you go to lunch with several others
who might become your peers. You could also offer to send copies of the
materials to the reviewer as a follow-up to the interview.
If you do not get to share the contents of your portfolio at all during
a particular interview, given whatever circumstances, you can still use
your portfolio to prepare for an interview. Reviewing the contents of
your portfolio before an interview should provide you with fresh
examples that you can draw from during the course of your interview.
-From TeachNet.com
Whether you are a 20-year veteran or just starting out, a portfolio should
be a key component of your teaching tools. Portfolios are a nearly universal
requirement for the hiring process, but if you already have a secure job you
should view a portfolio as your insurance against unforeseen district
shake-ups. Keeping one of these self-promotion tools up-to-date also can be
a good exercise in self-evaluation.
Think of a teaching portfolio as an expanded resume. A few personnel
administrators will welcome a variety of formats, such as a box of notes,
clippings, photos and objects. However the majority look for a standard
3-ring binder. Inside they will expect to find things that show a
teacher's strengths, goals and achievements. This variety of items could
include a resume, references, letters of recommendations, transcripts,
education philosophy, classroom management theory, examples of lessons and
photos of your classroom in action. It's not a scrapbook, but a
representation of your teaching abilities.

My Mother Forced Me Outi ended up coming out to my mother recently, though i really wasn't ready for it because she asked me point blank if i'm a man. i'm still pre-everything so i have yet to start medical transition and i don't even have a supportive therapist yet so it wasn't fun being pulled apart all night over it and being told that no matter what, she would do everything in her power to discourage me from this decision, not giving a crap that in doing so, she's hurting and alienating me. like most people she fails to see why i cannot think as she does and is adamant she knows me better than i know myself. i'm angry. i didn't expect acceptance but she did act like she'd be accepting at first to humour me i think. as soon as she saw i was damn serious she put the hard hat on and really gave me what for.
i had to go stay overnight with her recently because i had a public-funded dental appointment at the local hospital the next morning and it was too far to travel from my place to get there on time. i was scheduled for a wisdom tooth extraction - a procedure that will be quite complicated due to the placement of my tooth in the gum and the fact that its still partially impacted. i say will be because my mother kept me up all night stressed over having to explain my transsexualism to her and not getting to sleep at all.
by the time i got to the dentist's chair in the morning i was so upset and wound up from lack of sleep and emotional pain that i couldn't cope with the surgery happening at all. after taking x-rays and prescribing anti-biotics i was sent on my way again... that was over a week ago now and i still have to get another appointment for the actual surgery. i'm so angry with my mother for doing this to me because although it was publicly funded to a large extent i still had to pay a contribution fee which i will now have to pay AGAIN for another appointment. i could have had my surgery done and out of there with only one payment.
so i'm feeling gutted over that and sorta venting today as well as the only supportive person in my world - my MTF ts girlfriend - just ditched me as well, having her own issues. she was the only person i disclosed to before i was forced to tell my mother. there is more to this story of course but i'm too tired from the pain of my dental issues and the emotional fallout of having my heart ripped out again to really explain every detail of this story. now i am sure half my family knows but they're all so scared of it that no one has said a thing. i'm moody, distracted, and wishing i could just get this transition started already. the dental surgery is just one of many things getting in the way of my plans right now and i'm feeling more defeated as time goes on.
Anyone who will not accept as you are is not a true friend, and is not worth knowing. The basis of true friendship lies in a mutual acceptance of what you are. As a CD, I find that strangers accept me and old friends seem to consider me to be some sort of freak. People just tend to be bigoted. As a start, try to be content with the friendship you can find EP.
Thing seem down. Yes. But you need to focus on your goals. You need to see them, and move forward on them. As time goes, it will get easier, i cant say less painful, but easier for sure.
Hi, Areyan, I think i commented on your story in confess. Well if i didn't here it goes...You dont know how happy i am for you telling someone about your issues. I only could imagine how scared you were but you did it! There is no reason to hide anymore you should just stand tall and let people say what they want if they want to be jerks so let them. They will get tired and find someone else to pick on. Once again good for you

That's according to Lieutenant John Hotz. He reports seven
people were killed last year at this time and one hundred
ninety-four injured.
Hotz says the Missouri Highway Patrol will be participating
in a nation-wide operation called C.A.R.E. This stands for
Combined Accident and Reduction Effort. Already existing
traffic and alcohol laws will be enforced through
increased number of officers.
Hotz reminds citizens who will be out on the highway during
the holiday of three life-saving precautions: obey the speed
limit; buckle up; and do everything possible to make the
roads safe for traveling.

Hock Your House
Some advisers say to pay off your mortgage. We say leverage up and invest.
The reason is simple: the tax code. You can deduct interest on up to $1 million of mortgage debt (for the purchase of a principal and a second home) on your federal tax return. You can also get a deduction in 31 of the 41 states with income taxes, including such high-tax locales as New York and California, according to CCH Inc. For someone in the upper federal brackets living in a high-tax state, this can amount to a 40% or more government subsidy of borrowing costs. There are some restrictions and catches; for example, it's best to start out with a big mortgage rather than add on debt later. But more on the tax details later.
To see how this borrow-to-invest strategy works, consider a few numbers from E-Loan, the online mortgage lender. In November E-Loan was offering New York state residents a $1 million, five-year adjustable-rate mortgage with no points and minimal costs at an interest rate of 4.9%. If you are a New Yorker who pays combined federal and state income taxes at a 40% rate, your aftertax interest cost is just 2.9%. At the same time Vanguard's New York Long-Term Tax-Exempt Fund, with an average duration of 6.8 years, offered a yield to maturity of 3.8%. That's a 90-basis-point spread that the homeowner can scoop up. On $1 million of mortgage borrowing, you're ahead $9,000 a year, unless the bond issuers default (a low risk but not a negligible one).
You could, instead, get a 30-year fixed mortgage for 5.9% (reduced after tax to 3.5%) and buy a portfolio of 30-year munis yielding 4.7%, which would give you a spread of 120 basis points. What if interest rates fall and the bonds get called in early? No problem: You just cash out of the fund and call in the mortgage by prepaying it.
Using tax-subsidized borrowing to invest in tax-exempt bonds is a straight tax arbitrage. You may do better still if you're willing to invest mortgage borrowings in stocks; with this approach you are both tax arbitraging and shooting craps.
Since 1926 the S&P 500 has returned an average 10.4% a year. As a harbinger of the future this number must be taken with a certain caution: Much of the post-1926 return was from high dividends (averaging 4%), while today's yield is only 1.7%, and some of the past return was from expansion in price/earnings multiples, an expansion that cannot be counted on to continue. Still, it is not unreasonable to expect an 8% annual return from stocks over the next 30 years, or perhaps 7% after taxes. You must be prepared to accept lots of uncertainty in your annual returns and some uncertainty in the long-term return. It is quite conceivable that stocks, while you hold them, will return less than your mortgage costs.
When you borrow to invest, you must choose between an adjustable or a fixed-rate mortgage. You pay a significant premium to lock in a set rate for 30 years rather than the shorter lock you get with an adjustable. If you're borrowing to invest in muni bonds, just match the mortgage to the maturity of the bonds you are buying. If you're investing in stocks, it probably makes sense to pay a premium to lock in a long-term rate and protect yourself against getting whipsawed. What if you get an adjustable and at the end of 5 years mortgage rates are up to 12% while your stock portfolio is down 20%? It could happen.
Now for the tax details. That $1 million limit on deductible borrowing is for what's known as "acquisition indebtedness." (The $1 million applies to single and joint filers. Married couples who file separately are limited to $500,000 each.) If you're refinancing, your "acquisition indebtedness" is limited to the loan balance from the mortgage you used to buy the house plus any amount you are now borrowing, or have borrowed, to improve or expand your house.
The interest on housing debt used for any other purpose is "home equity" interest. And here's the catch: Single and joint filers can deduct interest on just $100,000 of such borrowing; separate filers are limited to $50,000. Worse, home equity loan interest is not allowed in the alternative minimum tax. For 2004, 3 million taxpayers, including half of those earning $200,000 to $500,000, will pay AMT. And unless Congress changes the law, 19 million taxpayers will owe it in 2006.
Now here's another catch. The law says you can't deduct interest on a mortgage whose proceeds are used to buy or hold muni bonds. The first half of this rule is straightforward: If you take out a $100,000 home equity loan and the next day plop the sum into a Vanguard tax-exempt fund, the interest you pay is not deductible. But what about the "hold" part? Say you have $1 million in the fund, and then you buy a $1 million house, withdrawing only $200,000 from the fund and borrowing the other $800,000 instead of paying all cash. Was your purpose in taking out the mortgage to enable you to maintain $800,000 in the fund? Or to buy a house? It's murky, but you would probably win the right to deduct the mortgage interest even if you were audited.

Jose Felix Zepeda did not pull the trigger on the gun that killed 29-year-old Leder Vazquez Sanchez about a half-mile from Disneyland on April 25, 2012, but Zepeda is the only one of several defendants to be convicted of first-degree murder in the case. A jury Thursday found Zepeda, a 41-year-old drug supplier out of Los Angeles, guilty of special circumstances murder during the commission of a kidnapping, kidnapping for ransom, reward, extortion, or to exact from another person money and other valuable things, and conspiracy to sell methamphetamine with a sentencing enhancement for possession of a substance to distribute exceeding one kilogram.
Jose Felix Zepeda, Alleged Killer of Man Who Stole Meth, Called Leader of "Revenge Caravan"
The bloody saga began with a plan by drug dealers to steal $24,000 worth of meth from other drug dealers. Alma Lopez Trinidad, 27, put the scheme in motion by introducing her co-horts Sanchez, who police earlier referred to as Luis Arreola, and Juan Carlos Carranza, 26, to the mark, 28-year-old drug dealer Agustin Vazquez Velazquez.
Sanchez and Carranza went in one vehicle and Mario Ramirez Ortega a second one to Montebello to "buy" three pounds of meth from Velazquez and Kain Espinoza, 28. Ortega hung back as the lookout. Velazquez and Espinoza had their own lookout, Zepeda. Sanchez and Carranza robbed the dealers at gunpoint and tied them up with shoe laces, but Velazquez broke free and ran out to Zepeda, who spotted Ortega, chased him, abducted him and forced him at gunpoint to lead him and several others back to Anaheim.
Carranza spotted Zepeda and his band of merry thugs and split, but Sanchez was shot twice in the back, staggered a few doors down from his residence and died. Zepeda got back the drugs from Sanchez's roommates and then decided to "extort" Ortega, Velazquez and Espinoza out of $5,000. But that plan fell apart when Anaheim police investigating Sanchez's death linked a cell phone the dead man had on him to Ortega, who went on to help detectives set up a sting that netted Zepeda, Velazquez, Espinoza and his girlfriend, Rocio Alejandra Badilla.
Carranza and Trinidad pleaded guilty in January to robbery charges, but he got 14 years in prison to her three years because he also copped to a sentencing enhancement for using a gun. In December, Velazquez and Espinoza pleaded guilty to conspiracy and admitted to a sentencing enhancement for possession of drugs. They are scheduled to be sentenced later this month. Badilla pleaded guilty to extortion and was sentenced to three years in prison, or the amount of time she'd served in custody awaiting trial.
Zepeda faces a maximum sentence of two life terms in state prison without the possibility of parole at his May 16 sentencing hearing in Santa Ana.

Antonio Conte has played down the importance of the system Juventus will use against Real Madrid on Tuesday.
Although he has reverted to the 3-5-2 shape in Serie A, he is expected to go with the 4-3-3 [12] he opted for during the 2-1 Champions League loss in Spain two weeks ago.
"We returned to a 4-3-3 in Spain, but my side can also play with a 3-5-2," the tactician stated on Monday.
"We'll see, we could even change shape during the course of the game.
"What is more important than the system is the way we interpret the game, because we are playing a candidate to win the Champions League."
While Real have a 100 per cent record, Juventus have only collected two points from their three ties so far.
"It's a waste of time trying to hide," Conte added. "This will be a fundamental and beautiful game.
"It will be crucial if we want to continue in the Champions League and we have to do something on the pitch to deserve continuing in the competition.
"We know it will be tough tomorrow, but we know that we have the qualities to do well.
"We'll look to take advantage of the atmosphere and I expect some great support from our fans. They have to follow the team during the positive and less positive moments of the match.
"We have to raise ourselves against a very tall obstacle."
Conte, though, admitted that his side would have to be in top shape defensively to keep Real quiet at the Juventus Stadium.
"Real have great champions and they live through matches like this on a weekly basis. It is a classic of the European game.
"Coach Carlo Ancelotti can count on an extraordinary and devastating offensive department. Especially if you leave them space in which to counter-attack.
"Ronaldo, Gareth Bale, Karim Benzema, Angel Di Maria and the rest are fantastic when they have space to attack. We have to tactically repeat what we did in Madrid."
The former midfielder wasn't left too impressed with the refereeing in the game at the Bernabeu, seeing as Real were awarded a controversial penalty and Giorgio Chiellini was dismissed.
"We're thinking about playing the game, UEFA worry about referees.
"There were a few incidents in the first match which compromised the result, but the referee is part of the game.
"We are happy that a top tier referee, one of the best in the world, has been handed this tie."
Englishman Howard Webb will officiate.

PSP Official Firmware v4.05 Update is Coming Soon
As quoted from Eric Lempel from the PlayStation Blog:
"I wanted to give a quick heads up to everyone that a new PSP firmware update, v4.05, will be released soon. We know that more and more of you are listening to music on your PSP, and this update will add new visualizers for music playback, among other features. Enjoy!"
These music player visualisations sound like good fun, not too sure what he means by 'among other features' though perhaps some more PS3 PSP connectivity or access to the Playstation Store, or just the usual routine extra security/stability issues.
Hopefully the guys at M33 will be able to work their magic soon with this latest firmware update upon its release.

Puppies: Mocha Latte' , Kanga, Angel, Cody (Angels bestest brother)
Profile: Hi, my name is Ray. I have three very happy little dogs that I love to bits! I am an artist/photographer and so you may notice a lot of the pics of my dogs are very, you know, they work! I have found that ever since I got Kanga and Angel and Mocha I have been holding onto my camera a lot more. Angel of course is used to getting her pic taken, but Mocha and Kanga are so photogenic! Hope you like my dogs! And leave plenty of comments! Grazie, US! P,S: Look at my extra album of pictures of when Angel visits her madre and padre and amico's at the dog park place! It's new! Hope you like it!
Friends: 29
Member Since: October 4, 2009Add to Friends
Mocha is very high spirited. She loves to run around and around the whole house! We adopted her and her brother from a friend who moved down south and sadly couldn't bring them. Mocha has made a wonderful and exciting new adition to our home! I have been getting some questions about names. So I decided I'll just put my dogs full names. Mocha Latte' is Mocha's full name but we prefer to call her just Mocha.View Profile
Kanga is much calmer than his sister Mocha. He likes to sit back and relax on your lap. He doesn't exactly enjoy being harrassed by my little sister but he sits there and lets her dress him up in ridiculous costumes. He's a good dog who has a long life ahead of him! Kanga's full name is Kangaroo, just putting that out there. He was named Kangaroo and we shortened it to just Kanga after a while. We prefer to call him Kanga, but sometimes when we are happy with him we call him Canguro, which is his name in Italian.View Profile
Angel is a wonderful dog. She used to be the spoiled only child, but since her new brother and sister have arrived she's been getting used to having to share her toys and family. A good thing came out of this though, new play mates! She loves to go for walks and enjoys the snow so much, good thing we live in a really snowy place (Calgary ) Angel is an awesome dog and is extremely healthy! She has control of me and she is not afraid to use it at the best of times. She is not a bad dog though, and she is extremely trained. Never barks, only when teh doorbell rings, adn when she is very excited. Her tail is always wagging a mile a minute. She is my baby and forever will be!View Profile
Cody is Angels brother. We were going to pick him, but we chose Angel instead, or rather she chose me. Of course I begged my parents to let me have both, to just give him to my sister, but they said one dog for now. I wasn't going to push my luck, so I left the SPCA still happy with Angel. Cody now has a wonderful home with people that we have quickly become friends with. I don't have many photos of him, but the ones I do have are precious! I love you Cody! And thank you for putting up with your sister when we come to visit!View Profile

S'mores Cookies
While I should be including recipes for my Black Eyed Peas or cabbage I made for New Years, I am giving you cookies instead. Over this holiday, my entire family was sick at one point or another. None of the recipes I wanted to make were made on time, and plans were constantly changing.
I am really thinking that I will NOT get the flu shot next year!
Flying all the way to California to see my newest little nephews was supposed to be heartwarming, and I ended up feeling even worse than usual when it was time to say goodbye because I felt so awful that I had to leave my sick family behind!
We actually had planned to do a little cookout in the beautiful California weather and roast S'mores after dinner, but with everyone sick, we spent most of the time with sweatshirts and Kleenex boxes, huddled under blankets.
So I bring you, S'mores cookies. The best way to bring s'mores indoors.
I might also add I am a fan of constructing s'mores in the microwave for an easy 30 second treat, but nonetheless, fresh baked cookies make everyone feel just a little better.
This recipe is from Bob's Red Mill, and they have graciously donated supplies for me to experiment with their recipes. A few additional recipes will be will be coming soon, and I definitely have begun the search for more.
Not only does Bob's Red Mill provide high quality, and sometimes hard to find ingredients, they use eco-friendly packaging, even shipping my product with biodegradable peanuts.
If that doesn't sing to my heart, I don't know what else does. Oh yeah, s'mores.
So, in light of cold weather and crazy amounts of germs flying around everywhere, stay inside and bake these cookies!
After creaming the butter and sugars, add in half regular flour and half graham flour.
(Here's an affiliate link: Bob's Red Mill Organic Graham Flour — 24 oz)
Add in your chocolate chips and use your cookie scoop to perfectly portion out cookie balls!
(Here's my favorite cookie scoop: Cookie Dough Scoop with Push Button (Orange))
Take the cookies out after about 7 minutes; they will be under baked.
Press 4 or 5 marshmallows into the top, and place them back in the oven for another 2-3 minutes.
See that spot to the left? I taste tested one for you.
G – double O – D, GOOD!
I've tried s'mores bars and the gambit, and these are my fave!!! Maybe it's because nothing beats fresh baked cookies in my mind….
~ Peace, Love, and S'more Y'all!
S'mores Cookies
Yield: 2 dozen
From http://www.bobsredmill.com.
3/4 cup softened Butter
1/2 cup Brown Sugar
1/2 cup granulated Sugar
1 Egg
1 tsp Vanilla Extract
1/2 cup + 2 Tb Unbleached White Flour
1/2 cup + 2 Tb Bob's Red Mill Graham Flour
1 cup Graham Cracker Crumbs
1/2 tsp Baking Soda
1/2 tsp Sea Salt
12 oz Chocolate Chunks
3 cups Mini Marshmallows
1. Preheat oven to 375°F.
2. In a large bowl blend 3/4 cup of softened butter with 1/2 a cup of brown sugar and 1/2 a cup of granulated sugar.
3. Once the sugars and butter are creamed together, add 1 egg and 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract.
4. Add 1 1/4 cups of flour. Use half flour and half Bob's Red Mill Graham Flour. The graham flour gives the cookies that graham cracker texture we all love when we eat s'mores!
5. Add 1 cup of graham cracker crumbs.
6. Add 1/2 a teaspoon of baking soda and 1/2 a teaspoon of salt and blend everything together well.
7. Add a 12 oz bag of chocolate chunks to the batter and fold them in.
8. Spoon the batter into 1 inch balls and spread them evenly on a cookie sheet. The batter does spread a little bit, so be sure to give them some space.
9. Bake them for approximately 7 minutes and pull them out of the oven. They will not be done baking yet!
10. Press 4 or 5 mini marshmallows into the top of each cookie and put them back in the oven. Bake for an additional 2 to 3 minutes, or until marshmallows are golden.

Loafers working up a sweat
The Last Word
Page Tools
You really had to ask: why weren't all these people at work? Thursday, Blokes Day at Flemington and the lawns are thick with holidaying humanity. All that time, all that labour, lost to Victorian industry. And yet, we are told that the spring racing carnival is of vast economic benefit to the state, worth $388.5 million last year, apparently. It seems clear then that the loafers in yesterday's race crowd - and they know who they are - are making a greater contribution to the economy if they take a sickie and blow a week's wages on the punt and three bottles of Carrington Blush than if they actually report diligently for work. Forget industry, we may be on to something: Victoria, the place to bet. The public lawns were sodden, the pathways beaten through them by a week's traffic of snagged and broken heels turning slightly liquid in the first stages of what might well be a quagmire come Saturday. In the members', they had taken the very sensible precaution of relaying great swathes of fresh turf. This presumably reflected the relative value of the footwear employed in either area. "Keep your numbers nice and high!" Just beyond the barrier, Fashions on the Field was about to begin, and hundreds of hopefuls milled by the gates, their massed fascinators tilting to the breeze like a field of psychedelic wheat, a scene that featured more stripped cock feathers than the plucking shed at Steggles.
Fashion's fairy godmother flies off
Names aplenty among the judges, from Chloe Dallimore, star of The Producers - all legs and pelt in the front row - to the face of the carnival herself, Clare Hawkes, who yesterday had eyeshadow to match her feather, which must have taken some doing, unless of course she is a natural aqua. No sign of Carson Kressley though, whose 48 hours Down Under have been and gone, leaving only the endless repetition of his "fashion fairy godmother" ads on Flemington's big screens. Kressley's visit seems, however, to have been too much for Sydney talk diva John Laws. "Who is this pompous little pansy prig who's strutting around everywhere telling Australian blokes how to wear their pocket square? As he called it. That's poof speak for handkerchief . . . Who is he? He might be famous in certain circles, circles being the operative word, we know where they are." Kressley seems to have hit a nerve, but it was his involvement in Fashions on the Field that really riled Laws. "He was judging girls, now what the hell does a pillow biter know about judging girls? They should have had a few truckies down there, or me . . . fair-dinkum Aussie blokes judging fair-dinkum Aussie girls. Not this pompous little pansy."
Musings of an unreconstructed bloke
It is here, of course, that Laws makes a fundamental misjudgment of the fashion industry, which, as we know, is a transnational exercise in homosexual misogyny. However. "I remember when Australia was a land of proud, dedicated women and hard-drinking and hard-talking men. M- E- N, men. Why this sudden proliferation of pansies, I don't know. It's a major issue. It's all very good and well that Australia tolerates people with varied sexual leanings, but I don't know why we should be celebrating it. The sooner this fairy flies out and lets us judge our own women on our own criteria, the better." John! So dashing, so . . . unreconstructed! It seems fitting to conclude our observations of cup week with the memory of Tuesday breakfast at the Grand Hyatt, an occasion punctuated by a bizarre scene involving Maria Venuti, left. In a wild, self-designed frock capped by huge ascending plumage, she came to blows with a fountain spewing melted chocolate (a Hyatt breakfast speciality presumably: continental, FEB or molten chocolate). As Maria attempted to dip skewered strawberries into the molten flow, she leaned in far enough to coat her feathers too. Bystanders were aghast, but Maria was unaware, turning from side to side as they gaped in horror, flicking the neighbouring race-day confections with gobs of confectionery. Though no doubt there was worse to come . . .

Hey everyone,
Sorry I haven't been around lately. I have spent the last three weeks traveling for work. Trying to stay on my healthy eating plan proved more than difficult for me.
In the past, my favorite thing about traveling was to stop at fast food joints and eat things I wouldn't normally eat when I am at home, then I would buy more snacks each time I stop for gas. Traveling for me was like an eating party. This time, however, before I even pulled out of my driveway, I packed a cooler with lots of water, yogurt, fruit and healthy snacks. Additionally, I loaded an audio book onto my iPhone to keep my mind off of eating.
By the time I arrived to the south coast of Georgia, I made it all the way with out eating one thing that I hadn't packed. The first night, I had to attend a company dinner at a local steakhouse. Everyone was drinking and eating lots of fried appetizers while I watched. Feeling a little left out, I broke down and ordered a 80 calorie Michelob Ultra beer. Though not the quality beer I'm used to, it did make me feel a little better sitting at the table. While my co-workers placed their orders consisting of steaks and baby back ribs, I asked the server if I could get a plain piece of baked chicken with no skin and some steamed vegetables, something that wasn't even listed on the menu. Our server made a special request to the kitchen and was able to comply. When our meals were served, the chef really went out of his way to make me something special. I was presented with a roasted chicken breast with steamed broccoli and a half of a sweet potato. When it came to desert, I simply ordered a cup of coffee. My meal was delicious and I ended up having a great time not feeling deprived of anything and only consuming an estimated 400 calories.
The rest of the trip wasn't as easy, but I managed it well. My room has a microwave and the hotel sold frozen dinners, so I spent the rest of the trip eating dinners in the room. On the 4th day, I was headed home again and survived the ride home without incident.
After a week at home, I hit the road again, but this time would be gone all week. Again my car was packed with the usual healthy snacks and made the trip down unscathed. I spent my first night in my room eating another frozen dinner, but I can tell you that it had already gotten old. I did fine in the mornings eating my yogurts and coffee for breakfast. Lunches was spent with co-workers at local restaurants and manged to control my eating pretty well; however, when it came to dinner, I started ordering at placed that proved delivery service. the second night was pasta, and by the third my diet went all to hell and I stopped for wings and beer. My trip home was just as bad with a lunch provided by McDonald's. Talk about a total crash and burn.
Now that I'm home again, It's been difficult to jump back on the band wagon, but I'm trying. I'm happy that it's getting warmer outside and able to get out on my bike, my motivation is coming back on track. Keeping up with this blog also helps me stay on track, so I'm really going to try and keep everyone up to date on my progress.
Until next time my friends.

NC HEALTH REPORT: Groups call on Carolinas Health System to immediately stop suing patients
May 2, 2012
By Adam Searing and Adam Linker
Read all about it in the Charlotte Observer today. In response to the stunning revelations about Carolinas Healthcare System and other hospital practices uncovered by the CO's and Raleigh News and Observer's Prognosis: Profits series, the NAACP, the N.C. Justice Center, Action NC, the N.C. AFL-CIO, the Jesus Ministry, and the Black Women's Caucus issued a statement yesterday calling on Carolinas Healthcare System to remove liens it has on people's houses - like Ms. Joyce Jones' small house - and join other major hospitals in the state that have ended the practice of suing patients. Let's hope $4.2 million-man Carolinas CEO Michael Tarwater is listening to NAACP leader Reverend Barber's words from yesterday on the final leg of the Truth and Hope Tour of Poverty:
"The Bible says we're not supposed to burden the poor and the sick and the afflicted. We're supposed to lift them and help them and heal them. (Carolinas HealthCare) is a group with money hounding people who are just trying to make it."

I see no logic in this. The database need not constrain the size of data that is stored and the UI can either constrain it or not, as the designer/user see fit. Constraining the database to only store up to a particular length means that the database needs to be changed if a new valid value for an attribute arises that is longer than what was anticipated. The UI can permit scrolling to show only a limited number of characters, but scroll to show all. A report writer can wrap long values to a certain width for practicality. Unless there is a REAL business reason for limiting the number of characters for a value (or your DBMS product requires it or gives you better features if you do), don't do it. From what I have seen of RDBMS tools, those who use them are inclined to put an attribute of "color" in the database (for example) with a max number of characters for the value. All we need, then, is a new color to come available and you can bet that the name will be abbreviated now to keep it within that length. How silly IMO.

Yes, this does look like an RDBMS approach to the problem. I don't think it
is a "natural" way to view the problem, but it follows a set of rules for
what that is worth.

I was going to talk more about forgiveness today; however, this video came to my attention along with the plight of Dr. Randy Beckum, who gave this wonderful sermon. It seems that the MidAmerican Nazarene University (MNU) decided to go with the masses who objected to this sermon and promptly fired Dr. Beckum.
This is such a disgrace as MNU's Faith statement is
Our Christian Faith
As a Christian, evangelical university we believe Jesus Christ is Lord and the final authority for our faith and our lives. Thus every aspect of university activity, from instruction to student life to business practices, flow from this truth.
All students, whether traditional, professional and graduate, commuter or online, are encouraged to find spiritual growth and fulfilment at MNU. While MNU is one of 11 Nazarene institutions of higher education in North America, our community is diverse and represents 44 denominations and six different religions. Our courses, activities and services are designed to support a culture that promotes Christ-centered love to one another, our community and our world.
So how does every aspect of the university's activity show what they did to Dr. Beckum flow from His truth?
His whole sermon is full of Christ teachings, teachings that some American Christians found hard to deal with. There were so many parts of this sermon that resonated with me and many of the things I have been saying for a very long time. Especially poignant was the part about God and… 'how many times have we heard God and Country, God and America, God and this nation or just God and nation'? He explains this very well, along with our obsession with violence as Americans and especially as Christian Americans.
For many the truth hurts, and unfortunately the truths spoken in this sermon seemed to hurt a lot of Christians. Why? Dr. Beckum only spoke about Christ, being Christ-like and following in Christ's path. That is what I pray for EVERY SINGLE time I pray to God, "Please help me to understand your words so that I may follow in your son Jesus' path (and to change it up I will add)." Does loving your enemy, praying for those who persecute you and repaying no one evil for evil sound to far-fetched? So maybe what Amos says in 5:10 to Israel should also be looked upon in our time – "They hate the one who reproves in the gate and they abhor the one who speaks honestly … The wickedness of Israel's upper class is evident in their hatred for any leader who dares to oppose their interests and SIDE WITH TRUTH AND JUSTICE."1
After watching this video if you are left angry, mad, shaking your head in disbelief, or just thinking he must be some sort of bleeding heart liberal, then maybe you need to grab your Bible, go off into a room by yourself, close the door and go into a deep prayer/discussion with God your Father ~Matthew 6:6.
1 Faithlife Study Bible note under Amos 5:10. Emphasis mine.
Dr. Beckum asked that this conversation be kept going. He suggested using the hashtag

At West Madison Veterinary Hospital, we believe preventative health care will provide your pet a long and happy life. The cornerstone of preventative health care is the routine comprehensive examination. Since our pet's age much more quickly than we do, examinations should be done a minimum of 1-2 times a year. A comprehensive nose-to-tail exam includes evaluating the eyes, ears, oral cavity, heart, lungs, skin, hair coat, and palpation of the internal organs and skeletal system. This procedure allows us to determine the overall physical health of your pet. The physical examination, however, does not allow us to determine the overall health of the internal organs. Only a blood and urinalysis screen will do that. WMVH recommends this screening for all pets age 2 to 7 years of age annually. If your pet is 7 years old or older, ask about our senior care program. As in all health evaluations, early detection is the key as it helps us identify and make recommendations on potential health care issues that could impact your pet's overall health.
Senior Care
Our senior care program allows your pet to benefit from the same tests and evaluations that we use in human medicine including hematology, comprehensive biochemical (blood) testing, urinalysis, blood pressure, and X-rays. Early detection and treatment can cure or delay progression of many disease processes so we recommend bi-annual physical examinations and annual senior comprehensive screenings.

Perfect Fall Breakfast: Steel Cut Oats
It's back to school time! For most families, gone are lazy summer mornings and casual breakfasts and back is the early morning routine of everyone rushing to get out of the door. Sound familiar?
Today I'd like to share an easy and healthy fall breakfast: steel cut oats.
These steel cut oats from from Jamba are delicious, but you can make the exact same thing at home!
I whip up a batch of these each week and zap a portion for a minute on my way out the door. It warms up my bones, is a whole grain filled with protein, fiber and iron, and costs next to nothing per serving.
For all you mothers, if your kids like instant oatmeal, they'll love this. They tastes so much better, are much healthier and are easy to customize to your child's taste by adding all sorts of toppings. My favorite topping combo is banana, brown sugar and sunflower seeds, but you could do anything from cinnamon to nutella..yum!
You can buy in bulk from Costco or for those that need gluten-free you can buy GF version. Even the more expensive gluten-free steel cut oats work out to only be $.10 per serving, which makes this breakfast one that both my body and my purse are happy about!

Comixpedia.org and Webcomics What Sup
Of course, I remember days where we often reach almost to excatly 50 days for weeks on end. It when comixpedia.org is a much bigger prority. Right now, I must satisify my programming hobby.
The activity of blogging about comixpedia.org and the webcomic afd are long gone. It may spark up again however....when yet another famous webcomic was being deleted. The interest of comixpedia.org droped from talkative to mere silent support for the project.
Still, I hope to reach the ten thousand articles milestone by the end of the year and make it the year for the encyclopedia project.
Now...it time for webcomics!
Ah...a new killer comic with wicked art to check out. I certainly hope it hold and attract my interest when I read it. I don't know what it called but it is created by a guy with the nickname "Keiii".
I also catch up to my reading log which I neglect badly. As usual, the story progressing. Megatokyo however...have a new plot development. The comic still kept me guessing.
