Los Angeles Roger Federer would hate this column, because it is about Father Time, currently his toughest opponent.
His good fortune is that he won't have a lot of reading time these days, what with that little tennis event they will be holding in New York City the next two weeks. They call it the U.S. Open.
Federer turned 30 on Aug. 8. He celebrated by publicly thanking his longtime fans and supporters on his website. That was probably followed by 500 forehands, 500 backhands and twice as many practice serves.
To many of us, Father Time is getting the stiff knee working in the morning so we can walk to the sink to brush our teeth. To Federer, it is that split second that makes the backhand go wide.
For his mental well-being, Federer had to walk past his 30th birthday as if it were a crack in the sidewalk. But reality says that tennis years and dog years have similarities. That makes Federer about 200. A 30-year-old professional tennis player has more miles on him than a '54 Chevy. And knees, ankles, elbows and shoulders can't be restored with an oil change.
Federer's accomplishments give us pause, tell us that, while twilight is near, there might be a couple of big sunny days left. He is accorded the label as the greatest men's tennis player ever because he won the most major tournaments. Grand Slams are how the sport measures itself, and Federer has 16.
He has five U.S. Open titles, 66 tour titles and is one of only five people who have won all four major titles at least once, plus an Olympic gold medal. Andre Agassi, Steffi Graf and Rafael Nadal did it all in singles and Serena Williams and Federer got their Olympic gold in doubles.
Since 2003, Federer has won at least one Grand Slam tournament each year. His most recent was the 2010 Australian Open. That's six majors ago, by far his longest drought.
He hasn't fallen off the map. He remains No. 3 in the world, one of the most gifted shot-makers to ever slip on a wrist band and, just last week, told reporters asking about his U.S. Open prospects, that he was "physically perfect."
Significantly, it was Federer — not some free-swinging 20-year-old hotshot feeling no pressure in an early round — who ended Novak Djokovic's amazing unbeaten run at 43 earlier this year at the French Open.
There is no question that Federer still has it. The question is: Does he still have it through seven matches and the usual two weeks of heat and rain and noise and living hell that make the U.S. Open the U.S. Open?
The clock is ticking on the Federer era.
The new stars are No. 1 Djokovic and No. 2 Nadal.
Wednesday night, Djokovic was Jay Leno's guest on NBC and Nadal was David Letterman's guest on CBS. It was like a mini U.S. Open final — head-to-head on competing networks.
Those shows once were Federer's domain. That was during his era.

Italian Vogue's Franca Sozzani celebrates the enduring relationship between fashion and wool, while Donatella is enlisting an Australian icon in her latest collection.
Last night in Milan, Franca Sozzani, editor-in-chief of Vogue Italia, and the Woolmark Company celebrated the end of day one of Milan Fashion Week with the opening of a photographic exhibition entitled When Wool is in Fashion. Mounted in Sozzani's sister Carla's gallery space at 10 Corso Como, the exhibition takes a look back over the last 25 years of Vogue Italia and L'Uomo Vogue, tracing the relationship between wool and high fashion. The occasion also highlighted an artistic book, The Art of Merino: An Extraordinary Matter, which pays homage to Australian merino wool.
Although admitting nerves about her own fashion show on Friday, Donatella Versace found time away from preparations to attend the event. The designer wasn't giving away any clues about her upcoming collection, except to say: "I'm using very lightweight wool, talking about Australian wool, because of the way it falls, because of the way [it takes to] tailoring."
Versace is just one of many designers who have looked to wool. One image from the exhibition features a head-to-toe leopard-print outfit from 1991 by Azzedine Alaïa, worn by a reclining Naomi Campbell. In other shots, Christy Turlington curls up in an oversized Prada knit for photographer Patrick Demarchelier, Chloë Sevigny dons a man-style suit by Lanvin, and Steven Meisel captures this season's wool suiting by Miu Miu.
With the vast archives she has at her fingertips, how did Sozzani choose the images? "You go by instinct," she says.
"Of course, you try to get from different years, different styles, but, after, you go by instinct." Sozzani says there is exciting potential for a new wave of designers such as Michael Lo Sordo (who was in attendance) and Dion Lee to continue the relationship with wool, along with talents from the world over. "There's a new generation in England, in America, in Italy, in France; it is low [profile] because there is not much money at the moment, but they will come out."

All India Disaster Mitigation Institute (AIDMI)
Recognize the Efforts of Girls and Women
International day for Disaster Reduction (IDDR) is a day globally acknowledged and celebrated to promote awareness on Disaster Risk Reduction with a theme concerning different dimensions of DRR. For the year 2012, UNISDR has decided to celebrate the unending, not very well acknowledged but valuable contribution made by women and girls for Disaster Reduction all over the world.
Celebrating IDDR in Assam
Two simultaneous 3-days of trainings on School Safety (including School Disaster Management Plan and Mock Drills) were organized by Assam State Disaster Management Authority (ASDMA) and facilitated by All India Disaster Mitigation Institute (AIDMI) at Goalpara and Darrang Districts of Assam from 11-13th October 2012. 103 schools from Darrang and Goalpara districts of Assam prepared the action plan for building knowledge on DRR with school community. Enhanced focus was on girl child and female teachers.
On October 13, 2012, the training group celebrated IDDR through following key actions. Group discussion on Girls and Women's Contribution in Disaster Risk Reduction. The case of Tilly Smith had been the dominant example during the debate favoring the valued
contribution of young girl to save thousands of lives from Tsunami in a small island of Thailand filled with tourists. But each disaster has its own Tilly Smith. Let us find her, let us recognize her.
In Goalpara, the program was organized by the District Disaster Management Authority to celebrate the occasion where women from different parts of the District were present. The discussion attracted a very handsome participation of the gathering. "Mur Ghoreinine okole das jon manuk bochale eta tempo accidentor pachot (My wife rescued 10 passengers by herself after a tempo accident)" says Mr. Adul Kader Mullah, a participant in the training. "Without involvement of women and girls, we cannot think for reduction, mitigation and prevention of disaster. Though considered vulnerable, they can be a force in disaster reduction if significant steps are taken to increase their involvement thorough enhancing their capacities to deal with disaster." Says Dr. Hemanta Baishya, District Project Officer, District Disaster Management Authority, Goalpara District, Assam, India.
Another very special attraction of the program was Mock Drill. The women teachers who were participants in the 3-day training were conducting the mock drill at Goalpara High School. The girl students were encouraged to lead. Women teachers not only excited but also have demonstrated the real learning from the training and presence of mind.
However, the difference is not so huge, but a theme such as this acknowledging the unappreciated efforts having immense importance of women and girls to reduce disaster can be an inspiring fact to motivate and gear up this section of the population to bring more examples as of Tilly Smith and ensure that the risk of disasters have been reduced. Mr. Pritam Saikia, Deputy Commissioner of Goalpara district emphasized that Disaster Reduction should be an everyday concern especially for Assam citizens due to multiple hazard scenario. He further added that the contribution of Women and Girls is highly needed and must be recognized for achieving effective result on disaster reduction. Training ended with school disaster management plan, mock drill and teacher's action plan of different activities to build students knowledge on disaster risk reduction on October 13, 2013.

Putting 'pink slime' to taste test
Published 4:13 pm, Wednesday, March 21, 2012
All this angst over "pink slime" has made one thing clear: We don't always know what we're getting when we bite into a burger.
Which leaves unanswered some of the most basic questions in the debate over what the meat industry calls lean ''finely textured beef,'' a processed meat filler that experts say has found its way into much of the ground beef consumed in the United States.
But as a professional eater, I wondered: What does this stuff do to the taste and texture of ground beef? And how can consumers know when they're eating it?
Neither answer came easily, the former because of the sheer volume of beef I needed to eat, the latter because of the rather opaque way ground beef is made.
For schools, that opacity began to clear last week, when the U.S. Department of Agriculture announced that as of the fall the National School Lunch Program will allow districts to choose ground beef that does not contain the product. Previously, it was difficult for schools to know whether the beef they bought from the feds had it or not.
That's because pink slime really is made from beef and therefore doesn't need to be listed as a separate ingredient.
But the change doesn't do much for the average consumer.
At the grocer, a steak is a steak, and it is nearly always labeled by the cut of beef it's from. There was a time when ground beef was similarly labeled and you knew at least roughly what part of the animal you were getting. And though some packages still indicate "ground chuck" or "ground sirloin," today most is labeled simply as "ground beef."
Most consumers don't care. They'd rather focus on another part of the label — the fat percentage. And producers don't care. It makes it easier for them to use whatever cuts they want without worrying about spelling it out.
Now, introduce lean finely textured beef, and the meat picture is further muddied.
The product is made from bits of meat left over from other cuts. It's heated and spun to remove the fat, then compressed into blocks for mixing into conventional ground beef. Because it's so lean and inexpensive, producers often mix it into fattier meat to produce an overall leaner product.
That means two packages labeled "ground beef 80 percent lean" may look and sound the same, but be composed of different meats. One could be unadulterated ground beef made from cuts of meat containing 20 percent fat. The other could be made from poorer quality — much fattier — meat but cut with and made leaner by pink slime, a term coined by a federal microbiologist grossed out by it and now widely used by critics and food activists.
How do you tell the difference? For the most part, you don't.
"You can't differentiate beef from beef," said Jeremy Russell, a spokesman for the National Meat Association. "Talking to your retailer would be the only way."
So that's what I did. But it got me only partial answers.
At grocer No. 1, the folks behind the butcher counter were able to show me one brand, a pricy "all-natural" ground beef that did not contain the meat filler. But for the many other and far less expensive varieties of ground beef? They had no way of knowing.
Grocer No. 2 presented the opposite problem. The workers there found one brand that definitely did have the pink stuff, but they couldn't say whether any others did or didn't.
The term "all-natural" used at store No. 1 is unregulated and doesn't really mean anything. At another store, another brand of ground beef could be similarly labeled and contain the meat filler.
But the term "organic" is regulated, and that provides a clue. If you can find it — and are willing to pay the price — ground beef labeled organic cannot contain lean finely textured beef.
Despite the odds, I had lucked out. Between the two grocers, I'd managed to identify two packages of 85 percent lean ground beef, one with pink slime and one without. Time to taste.
By label alone, it was clear we were talking different beef demographics. The pink slime-free product bragged that it was minimally processed and that the cows had been raised without antibiotics, growth hormones or animal byproducts in their food. Price — $5.99 per pound. The pink slime version? Just a minimalist "compare and save." Price — $3.09 per pound.
Outwardly, they seemed the same: They smelled the same, and they looked basically the same, though the pink slime sample was slightly lighter in color. Until you touched them. The all-natural sample was slightly fattier to touch. That seemed odd, since both products should have the same fat content.
For the taste test, I kept it simple. I formed a half-pound of each ground beef into a thick patty, adding nothing to the meat. And though I prefer my burgers on the grill, I decided to fry these in a skillet because it's easier to control the cooking, ensuring both would be cooked to the same degree and under the same conditions.
I added nothing to the pan. Meat this fatty generally bleeds out a robust amount of grease, so I wasn't concerned with sticking. That was my second surprise. The pink slime patty released very little fat during cooking. The other patty gave off much more.
About 5 minutes per side, and I declared them medium-rare. After giving them a few minutes to rest, I seasoned them lightly with salt and pepper, then cut in.
First, the unadulterated burger. The aroma was luscious. The meat was juicy, tender and nicely seared. Where I'd cut, juices slowly dribbled out onto the plate. The taste was savory and meaty, with big beefy flavor. The chew had just the right texture, substantial but giving. Basically, everything you would want in a burger.
The pink slime burger also was perfectly seared and drew me in with an equally alluring aroma. But no juices collected on the plate. Or dribbled out. Or were apparent in the meat in really any way. The taste was — OK. I took another taste of the first burger, then back to the pink slime burger.
It was not very bad or good. It was flat. I added more salt. No. It was simply one-dimensional.
And then there was the texture. Unpleasantly chewy bits of what I can only describe as gristle, though they were not visible, seemed to stud the meat of the pink slime burger. The result was a mealy chew that, while not overtly unpleasant, didn't leave me wanting another bite.
Of course, I did take another bite. In the interest of good journalism, I ate both burgers entirely. And then I felt sick. I'm confident that has nothing to do with slime of any sort

When SEO Doesn't Make Sense
I recently had a conversation with a doctor about search engine optimization. He was excited to talk about the idea that he wanted his name, and to a slightly lesser extent the name of his practice, to pop up all over the front page of Google. He was disappointed when he googled himself, not to see his name popping up at the top. He wanted to know how much it would cost to get that kind of result. I told him it wouldn't be expensive at all. He got excited.
I then told him that it would be money down the drain, with no real return on investment to speak of. He looked puzzled, so I went on to demonstrate my point by pulling up a keyword tool on my iphone, and showing him the volume of people searching for his name. Zilch. Or so few that the keyword tool wouldn't embarrass him further by showing him just how few there really were, after you subtracted his own vanity searches. His doctor-ego had just taken a hit, so I decided I'd better channel his energy in a positive direction.
Next, I asked him if he had any idea how many people searched for the name of the primary disease with which his particular specialty dealt. We did the numbers (the name of the disease plus the name of the city in which he practiced), and he was astounded to see how many monthly searches there were. Then I asked him if he would like for his name to appear all over the front page of Google for THAT phrase. To his credit, the light bulb sparked to life without much delay. He asked me how much this strategy would cost, and I just smiled at him.
Rule # 1 of Search Optimization: There is a direct correlation between the number of searches a term gets, and the amount of money, effort, and time it will require to move the needle.
Rule # 2 of Search Optimization: There is a direct correlation between the number of searches a term gets and the potential returns to be had in going after the front page of the SERPs.
The work of SEO must always consider these rules when forming and deploying a meaningful strategy.
So what kinds of scenarios don't make sense for a comprehensive SEO strategy? I asked our SEO team to answer that, and this was their list:
- The market-busting product. If it's so new and revolutionary that no one in the market even knows that they need it yet, then SEO is not going to help at all. The real expense of marketing this kind of category-defiant product or service is in directly educating existing customers and potential customers about what your product is and does, and why it's needed. If no one knows what term or phrase to enter into a search engine to find you, they won't be searching that way for you yet. (One exception is the revolutionary product that fits well into an existing, clearly defined market need, such as a new vacuum cleaner technology, or an amazing new spatula.
- The invisible Brand Name. Branding is a necessary function of marketing, but not necessarily the first priority of SEO. It's not the low-hanging fruit. Again, this comes back to knowing what keywords people use to find your product or service. Getting the sale is the first priority, and if your brand name alone does not yet have the cache to move the market, stick to optimizing the keywords that describe your product or service until your other concentrated branding efforts catch up.
- The tangential product, or Red-Headed Stepchild. Many companies have a core competency they are known for, but there's still this great little product or service on the side that seems to get far less attention. SEO the heck out of it, right? Well, maybe, maybe not. If there is not a clear connection between the core offering and the sidebar deal, there may not be a smart way of leveraging the strength of the one to infuse the other with deserved attention. Remember, Google doesn't care that your company is branching out. It only cares about returning relevant search results to its visitors (and arguably making Gazillions in the process). If your New Thing isn't the same thing as your Tried and True Thing, the amount of effort necessary to get noticeable results begins to look a lot like an entirely separate SEO strategy, complete with its own budget and structure. Diluting the strength of your tested and profitable web pages with large doses of The New Thing is not going to help anyone get rich(er).
- The low-profit per sale deals. We've had to talk some clients out of SEO, simply because the price point (and more importantly, the profit margin) on their typical sales didn't justify the expense. Quite simply, if the research shows that you can expect to pay the same price or more than you'll net on a sale to acquire that sale through organic or paid search optimization activities, then either raise your prices, or find a different, more cost-effective method of marketing your goods or services. We love to see clients who fundamentally understand the expected net value over time of a new customer relationship, because these are the clients we can truly have rational discussions about ROI expectations. Don't spend too much to acquire too little.

This website is a redesigned and expanded version of "Nicolas Magriel's Sarangi Site" which I created rather idiosyn-cratically in 1997 during the internet's early days. The site is dedicated to the sarangi and the many sarangi players whom I have had the good fortune to know. On this site you can find:
The sarangi (सारंगी) is the most important bowed instrument of South Asian art music. Its name is widely believed to mean "a hundred colours" indicating its adaptability to a wide range of musical styles, its flexible pitch, and its ability to produce a large palette of tonal colour and rich emotional nuance.
Nicolas Magriel has been playing the sarangi since 1970. He has spent around twelve years in India studying the sarangi and Hindustani vocal music and also doing research on Indian music. During the 1980s he performed widely in Britain and in Europe both as a soloist and as an accompanist to Hindustani vocal music and kathak dance.

Last year, I did a North Dakota Journal. I was in that state — the least visited in the United States — to investigate the oil boom. The fracking miracle. For the resulting piece in National Review, go here. If you're interested in the journal, the three parts are here, here, and here.
And now, South Dakota. I've been in that state in order to do a story from the Pine Ridge Indian Reservation. The story will appear in an October issue of NR. Care for a journal, as a kind of supplement? If so, great. If not — that's great too.
Anyway, here we go . . .
‐As I head into Rapid City from the airport, I have a political thought, for some reason: McGovern didn't carry this state. He didn't carry his home state when he ran for president in 1972. That must be kind of embarrassing: not to carry your home state. The state you represent in the Senate.
He did win Massachusetts and D.C., though. (Sixteen years later, Fritz carried his home state, Minnesota, plus D.C.)
‐Western South Dakota is just what it's supposed to be. The sky is big and beautiful, with enormous clouds. The landscape is panoramic. "It's the visual equivalent of surround sound," I think. The Black Hills live up to their billing.
Yes, this is seriously beautiful country. The Indians must have hated to relinquish it. (Not that I'm advocating the nursing of grievances.)
‐I pass a Roosevelt Park. I'm assuming the Roosevelt is Teddy, not Franklin — because of TR's association with the Dakotas (and with the West at large).
‐Plenty of things in Rapid City are called Rushmore — because Mt. Rushmore is just a half-hour away.
‐You want some fun with spellings? The Dacotah Bank.
‐I must say, the Dakota Mill & Grain building looks quite beautiful: both beautiful and utilitarian. There's no reason that beauty can't go with agribusiness.
‐New York Street seems a little out of place in this town. But then I think, "It probably refers to New York State, not merely Times Square." And New York State is a place of many, many small towns and much, much farmland.
‐At the hotel, the manager on duty is a woman named Aufdengarten. That's the sort of name that people should have, I think, in South Dakota (land of German immigration).
‐Out my window, I see a dinosaur. A dinosaur on a distant hill. What the . . .? I thought this was a land of bison, not dinosaurs.
(Turns out that Rapid City has had a dinosaur park since 1936. They don't move, as in the Steven Spielberg movies, but they're kind of nice all the same.)
‐It feels good to hold a newspaper in my hand. Been a long time. And what's in the Rapid City Journal today? At the tippy-top of the front page, there's a little notice about Syria. But the page has these headlines:
"Newt Johnson Named Athlete of the Week." "Toddler Calls for Help, Saves a Life." "Fields Drying Out from Heat." "Oscar Meyer Wienermobile Stops in Rapid City." "Swanson Resigns from School Board."
That's just what a paper, except for a few national ones, should be. I would not want to stop progress — but I will miss this kind of paper.
‐In the park, or a park, is a curious-looking statue: It's of a handsome, youngish man with a mustache, sitting in a wheelchair. You don't see that every day. Who is it? Scotty Backens, a late local disability activist.
‐There is a war memorial: commemorating World War I, World War II, the Korean War, Vietnam, and the Gulf War. It stops there. I wonder whether there will be an add-on for the Afghan and Iraq wars.
In the World War I section, there's a quote from President Wilson. And in the WWII section, a quote from FDR. Korea, Truman. Vietnam, LBJ. The Gulf War, the first Bush.
The LBJ quote includes these words: "We did not choose to be the guardians at the gate, but there is no one else."
#page#Let me quote more fully from that speech (given in July 1965):
Our power . . . is a very vital shield. If we are driven from the field in Viet-Nam, then no nation can ever again have the same confidence in American protection.
In each land the forces of independence would be considerably weakened and an Asia so threatened by Communist domination would certainly imperil the security of the United States itself.
We did not choose to be the guardians at the gate, but there is no one else.
Nor would surrender in Viet-Nam bring peace, because we learned from Hitler at Munich that success only feeds the appetite of aggression. The battle would be renewed in one country and then another country, bringing with it perhaps even larger and crueler conflict, as we have learned from the lessons of history.
Moreover, we are in Viet-Nam to fulfill one of the most solemn pledges of the American nation. Three Presidents — President Eisenhower, President Kennedy, and your present President — over 11 years have committed themselves and have promised to help defend this small and valiant nation.
For the complete text, go here.
‐Rapid Creek — after which Rapid City is named — is a modest-looking thing. It's hard to believe it could have done so much damage: so much damage in 1972, when the creek flooded, killing over 200.
Then again, I later see the creek when it's true to its name: rapid, very.
‐Downtown, I bump into presidents, lots of them. This is the City of Presidents, where life-size bronze statues of our presidents stand on every corner, or many corners. Who's that guy with the birds? Sculpted birds, I mean, not visiting pigeons. Is that St. Francis?
No, it's Benjamin Harrison. Whether he had a bird thing, I don't know.
Who's that westerner, with the cowboy hat, boots, and saddle? Some Texan in our past? No, Calvin Coolidge, the Vermonter. Go figure.
Hoover, like other presidents, has a high collar, and he looks terribly overdressed on a hot, hot day like today. He must be roasting. Bush the Elder, I must say, looks great, standing next to a globe. He cuts a sleek statue.
Eisenhower is dressed, not as the president, but as the general. Nixon is sitting down, with his hands together, looking thoughtful. Plotting? Polk leans on a barrel that says "54° 40' or Fight."
I hate to say this — Democrats won't like it, if any are reading — but Clinton looks totally and appropriately snake-oily. He looks like a huckster, or the worst kind of televangelist, with a microphone.
Kennedy is holding a toy airplane in one hand and a little boy's hand in the other. Is the boy John-John? I can't help thinking that JFK Jr. died in a plane crash. Harding is pictured, or sculpted, with a large dog.
I really like the way they handled FDR — the solution they came up with. Remember when the people in charge of the National Mall put him in a wheelchair, though FDR had fought for years never to be seen in a wheelchair? Remember that debate, concerning the FDR Memorial? Should Roosevelt be turned into a kind of disabilities advocate?
The Rapid City people do something really neat: They show him leaning against a podium. The podium has microphones on it: for CBS, NBC, and so on. Tucked behind the podium, discreetly, is a cane.
Such a classy way to handle this issue.
I would think that the Rapid City presidents would be an excellent educational experience for children. I should say, too, that there is a sprinkling of Indian notables, or Native American notables, as there should be (probably). I should say this too: There must be no vandalism here, or very little. I don't see any pigeons either.
‐On consecutive days, I have a bison burger. That may be two more bison burgers than I've ever had before. I do this on "When in Rome" grounds.
I wonder, "Am I turning into Billy Casper?" (Casper was a great golfer who famously went on a diet of buffalo meat. From that, he got the nickname "Buffalo Bill.")
‐Now to the question of "pop" versus "soda": What do they say here in Rapid City? Both, actually. I hear people say both. And I see both written. So, a bilingual city.
See you for Part II tomorrow.

Sam Tabar: New York Lawyer Exemplifies Secret to Success in the Legal Field
The law profession is one of the most competitive industries which requires hard work and years to be able to establish a name. Sam Tabar, a graduate of Columbia Law School, proved that with talent, hard work, and perseverance, he can accomplish greater heights. Just four months after finishing his degree, CrunchBase shows us that Tabar joined Skadden, Arps, Slater, Meagher & Flom, LLP as an associate. He handled hedge fund management, labor issues, investment management, and regulatory and compliance issues. While in the middle of his rising career at Skadden, Tabar left for Hong Kong to join the PMA Investment Advisors. Shortly after, he was promoted as the firm's Managing Director and Co-Head of Business Management. His work at PMA involved high-profile investment accounts including a $2 billion hedge fund.
After years of continuously improving PMA's assets, LinkedIn shows Tabar moved to Bank of America Merrill Lynch as the Director and Head of Capital Strategy for Asia Pacific. He engaged with hedge fund clients and provided them with counsel and introduction on endowments, pensions, and foundations among others. In 2012, he left the firm to work as director at Adanac LLC, BVI. He is one of the people behind the success of American startups Thinx and Verboten. A year later, he became a senior associate at Schulte Roth & Zabel, LLP which specializes on hedge funds. During his stay, the company's hedge fund increased to $103.8 billion, the highest in a five-year period according to Hedge Fund Research, Inc.
The 41-year-old lawyer and capital strategist said that since the Asian industry is continuously growing, companies are vulnerable to regulatory screening. Investors have become more demanding, which fortunately provides greater career opportunities for legal advisors. Throughout his career, Tabar worked with various firms and companies across different countries. His philosophy is centered on keeping the clients happy because he believes that customer satisfaction is key to establish a good name. Due to his expertise in the financial aspect of law, it was more convenient for him to transition from one career to another. Aside from his native language, he is also fluent in French. When not dealing with hedge funds, he enjoys traveling and hosting events. Currently, Tabar works for FullCycle Fund in New York City.

Artistic Survival 101
Perched happily above a hubcap-sized Salsiccia gourmet pizza at Joey's Italian Café in the heart of Miami's booming Arts District, Miami pop art guru Chad Hankin, SPA/BA '94, is singing the praises of a transplanted Brazilian artist named Romero Britto.
"I don't think there's any doubt that Britto is the most successful neo-pop artist in South Florida," says Hankin, a 40-year-old whiz-kid hotel services provider with a passion for collecting modern art.
"What Britto has done," says Hankin, a frequently quoted South Florida art aficionado and local gallery entrepreneur, "is to create a look that simply says: Miami. And what is that look? It's bright; it's sexy; it's playful . . . and it refuses to take itself too seriously. That's the spirit of contemporary Miami — and I really don't think it's an exaggeration to say that Miami is rapidly becoming the new New York, when it comes to creating art that perfectly embodies a city's persona."
For Hankin, a former AU political science major who worked as an intern in the White House of the first President Bush (1991–92), the growing trend toward blending pop art with commerce is a healthy sign of cultural vibrancy. Hankin fell in love with business 15 years ago and has been having a blast as a hospitality entrepreneur ever since.
"Let's face it, the things that artists make are products," says Hankin, CEO of Hankin Enterprises, "and like any other products, they have to be marketed effectively if they're going to reach a wide circulation.
According to Hankin whose upscale restaurant and hotel franchisees often pay premium prices for art that adds value to the premises, knowing how to parse the complex relationships between art and commerce is essential for both business entrepreneurs and artists.
The passionate collector of modern art ticks off several market-wise approaches he says are essential for success:
- Get out of your studio and start connecting with the world around you . . . especially with the people who are building the new urban infrastructure—the developers, the retailers, the hospitality entrepreneurs—which is transforming South Florida. "The days of the isolated artist working alone in his garret are over. Creative collaboration is what it's all about."
- Form collaborative partnerships with other artists (a powerful new trend in the Wynwood Walls District) . . . so you can cut studio costs and also merchandise your art products to the max.
- Understand the tone, the style, the personality of the marketplace in which you're trying to sell your work. "The Miami of 2012 is an international city where Latin American and European and Asian cultures are all blending into South Florida's traditional culture at a dizzying rate of speed; the local art scene is changing along with it.
"Today's Miami art is cutting edge, sexy, international. And above all, it's indisputably modern. It's America's new multinational city, and our art reflects that."

WOBURN, Mass. (AP) — A man who spent 32 years in prison for a 1982 fire that killed eight people in Lowell has been granted bail as he awaits a new trial.
The Lowell Sun reports 57-year-old Victor Rosario wept as a judge ordered his release on $25,000 cash bail Thursday. Middlesex Superior Court Judge Kathe Tuttman also ordered him to stay in Massachusetts and undergo GPS monitoring and random alcohol screening.
Rosario was serving a life sentence after being convicted of arson and murder. Tuttman overturned Rosario's conviction Monday, based on advances in fire investigation and questions about his confession. Prosecutors are appealing.
His lawyers said Rosario, now an ordained minister, will live with his wife in Boston.
Rosario's bail hearing came the same day seven people died in an unrelated Lowell apartment fire whose cause isn't determined.

Tab Benoit Biography
17 November 1967, Baton Rouge, Louisiana, USA. Benoit started out playing classic rock cover versions in local bands. A gifted young guitarist, he was satisfied with this kind of music until a friend played him a copy of a Buddy Guy record. His musical world turned upside-down, Benoit set about recreating Guys deep-rooted emotion, adopting his style and researching more about the blues tradition. Rejecting a potential career as a pilot, he worked with a brace of Cajun bands, before finding someone receptive to the idea of a white man just out of his teens playing the blues. His first appearance on record placed him in awe-inspiring company - the Justice Records compilation, Strike A Deep Chord: Blues Guitar For The Homeless - with his own contributions sitting next to selections from Dr. John, Clarence Gatemouth Brown and Johnny Copeland.
Benoits debut album was released in 1992, and featured contributions from Gregg Bissonette (drums), Steve Bailey (bass) and Paul English (keyboards), and production from Randall Hage Jamail. Although no new ground was broken with his second album he continued to show his dexterity with the Fender Stratocaster. The 1995 release Standing On The Bank featured the new rhythm section of Greg Rzab (bass) and Ray Allison (drums), borrowed from Buddy Guy; the album was more authentic in feel than his previous efforts.
Benoit signed to Vanguard Records in the late 90s for the release of These Blues Are All Mine, before finding a more permanent base with the jazz label Telarc Records. Notable recordings for Telarc have included Wetlands (2002), Voice Of The Wetlands (2005) and Power Of The Pontchartrain (2007), and two collaborations with fellow guitarist Jimmy Thackery. Benoits reputation continues to grow and, most importantly, he is no longer seen as the new boy.

If You Bought, Received or Acquired a KitchenAid Brand Stand Mixer Marketed With A Horsepower Designation, You May Be Entitled to Benefits From The KitchenAid Class Action Lawsuit Settlement.
Whirlpool Corporation has reportedly agreed to a proposed settlement of a consumer class action lawsuit against it in the 11th Judicial Circuit Court in Miami-Dade Florida (captioned as Stuart Bornstein v. Whirlpool Corporation, Case No. 12-1532 CA 42) alleging, among other things, that Whirlpool over-stated the horsepower of certain 6-qt., 7-qt., and 8-qt. KitchenAid -brand stand mixers manufactured by Whirlpool and marketed with a horsepower designation, purportedly in violation of consumer protection statutes and in breach of express warranty, according to the KitchenAid stand mixer horsepower class action settlement notice.
Who Is Included In The KitchenAid Class Action Settlement?
The KitchenAid mixer settlement class reportedly includes, unless otherwise excluded, all persons in the United States and its territories who before June 18, 2014 either (1) purchased a Mixer or (2) received a Mixer as a gift or (3) acquired possession of a Mixer through other lawful means.
What Settlement Benefits Does The KitchenAid Class Action Settlement Provide?
The KitchenAid stand mixer class action settlement reportedly provides, among other things, that Whirlpool will change its records to extend the written warranty two years for all covered KitchenAid mixers and will provide on its website and in marketing materials that reference horsepower the following statement:
"Motor horsepower for our mixer motors was measured using a dynamometer, a machine laboratories routinely use to measure the mechanical power of motors. Our 1.3 horsepower (HP) motor reference reflects the horsepower rating of the motor itself and not the mixer's horsepower output to the mixer bowl. This robust motor, the backbone of our new mixer, delivers .44 HP to the bowl enabling your mixer to deliver consistent power to small and large loads with less heat build-up; resulting in years of dependable mixing. When combined with and guided by our new advanced motor control board, this is our longest lasting and most efficient motor yet. Simply put, our new, highly efficient, special purpose motor delivers the power you need when you need it."
Where Can You Obtain More Information About The KitchenAid Class Action Settlement?
For more information about the KitchenAid settlement, write to the Bornstein v. Whirlpool settlement administrator at P.O. Box 43281, Providence, RI 02940-3281, or visit the KitchenAid settlement website at www.mixersettlement.com.

Let's say you have an adopted child who you've taken to therapy (after therapy after therapy). You know that he has reactive attachment disorder and finally found him a good attachment therapist. However, he's still not improving.
What's going on?
The reason kids with reactive attachment disorder often don't get better usually comes down to these factors—
- Your child needs more than outpatient therapy.
- Your child has an unrecognized or misdiagnosed mental illness.
- Your child needs more time.
When your child needs more than outpatient therapy
You may have the best attachment therapist out there—but that clinician still isn't enough for your child. Kids with the disorder who fall within the mid to severe range need more than just outpatient therapy.
Some kids need to get out of their homes to learn how to attach. While that may seem counterintuitive, in-patient therapy can make for true change. A team of consistent, highly trained live-in therapy parents and clinicians who "get it" can help kids learn how to trust and attach.
Meanwhile, parents have a chance to take care of themselves when their child is away. And they learn tools to successfully parent their kids with the disorder. The kids also have the will and skills to build their relationships upon returning home.
When all of this comes together, change can finally happen. Parents and kids can work together, not against each other.
When your child has an unrecognized or misdiagnosed mental illness
Perhaps you're missing a huge part of what your child needs. That is, the right treatment for his mental illness. Many therapists miss it too.
A lot of kids with reactive attachment disorder also have mental illnesses. That's because they've inherited them from their biological parents (read up on that more here).
The first step to treat reactive attachment disorder is to first calm the brain. If your child has a mental illness that's not recognized, his brain isn't calm. If your child is misdiagnosed for a mental illness and taking the wrong meds, his brain isn't calm.
Whether a missed mental illness or a misdiagnosis, your child's mental illness will get in the way of treating his reactive attachment disorder. Your child can only work on trust and relationships when his brain is ready.
As one of our therapeutic treatment dads Chris Roosma says, "Kids who feel better, do better." Yet, it's not always easy to figure out how to make that happen. That's why you need an excellent attachment therapist and psychiatrist.
When your child needs more time
To heal from early trauma doesn't happen quickly. Everyone needs to work hard for the long haul—the child, parents, therapy team, teachers, etc. Eventually, the hard work will pay off if your child has the right kind of help. But that takes patience.
The good and bad news
The good news is that you might have found a solid reason why your child isn't improving. The bad news is that sometimes it's hard to find the solutions or patience to make it through.
There's simply not enough good help or resources to go around for those of you raising kids with the disorder. And patience runs thin—we know. In fact, many of you raising kids with reactive attachment disorder have post-traumatic stress disorder or other kids in the home who suffer. It's complicated, demanding, and highly stressful.
But there is hope. We have seen kids get better and lead healthier lives.
Take care of yourself and keep researching and advocating. Keep going. There is hope for your child.

Hoyer Statement on Pearl Harbor Remembrance Day
Katie Grant, 202-225-3130
WASHINGTON, DC - House Democratic Whip Steny H. Hoyer (MD) released the following statement today commemorating the 70th anniversary of the attack on Pearl Harbor:
"Seventy years ago this morning, our nation awoke to news that stirred hearts and steeled nerves to face the challenge of a generation. For the millions of Americans from every walk of life who answered the call to serve, the attack on our fleet at Pearl Harbor marked the beginning of a great struggle. On this anniversary we recall their heroism, their resolve, their perseverance toward achieving what President Roosevelt foretold would be their 'inevitable triumph.' We remember those who lie at final rest near the beaches they stormed and beneath the oceans they traversed in the service of our freedom. We honor the veterans in our communities who still bear the scars of that war and its stories of courage. Let us draw strength from their sacrifices that we may live up to their example in our generation by confronting America's challenges through unity, determination, and an abiding faith that our greatest triumphs still lie ahead."

This life-saving procedure is for people who have intestinal failure.
There are three types of intestinal transplants:
Most people who receive an intestinal transplant are on total parenteral nutrition (TPN) and can no longer eat solid food. Many have had complications with TPN and other treatments haven't worked.
At the UPMC Intestinal Rehabilitation and Transplantation Center, we tailor care to meet your unique needs.
Your doctor will need to refer you to the UPMC Intestinal Rehabilitation and Transplantation Center by calling 877-640-6746.
We will need your:
Once referred, you will meet with the intestinal transplant team to discuss the risks and benefits of surgery, as well as options for intestinal rehab.
The earlier you receive a referral, the better the outcome.
Reasons that may restrict you from having an intestinal transplant include:
If you're not a candidate for intestinal transplant, we have many treatment options at UPMC. Almost 70 percent of people referred to our center benefit from our intestinal rehabilitation program without needing a transplant.
The costs of intestinal transplant surgery vary based on your insurance, but they can be very high.
A credit analyst and social worker from UPMC's intestinal transplant team will:
UPMC participates with the following insurance provider networks:
The intestinal transplant evaluation process is a series of outpatient tests, scans, and consults.
The transplant team will assess your:
The process takes a week to complete, and you must have a caregiver with you at all appointments.
Depending on your health status, you may want to relocate to Pittsburgh during the intestinal transplant process.
Family House offers an affordable home away from home for people traveling to Pittsburgh for an intestinal transplant.
The intestinal transplant experience is unique for each person.
Because people recover at different speeds, you will have frequent follow-up appointments for the first 3 to 6 months after surgery.
Once you leave the hospital, you will visit the outpatient clinic almost daily for the first few weeks.
As you recover, these visits will decrease to 2 or 3 times a week and then weekly. Once you're eating solid foods and your doctor sees no signs of rejection or infection, you will visit us monthly for follow-up appointments.

I knew the sound of Breandan's voice with its full-on Irish accent long before I ever met him in person. Last year I did a shoot at the swanky St Regis Hotel which thankfully took months to coordinate. I say thankfully b/c somewhere along the way, Breandan introduced himself to me as my new contact at the hotel. Then Breandan and Esther got engaged, and since then I've held the honor of being their wedding photographer.
Click on any of the photos to view the slideshow of the session with this sweet couple. I love that even in her highest heels, Esther was still about a foot shy of her fiance. She looks so cute in Breandan's jacket.
Esther and Breandan, can't wait to photograph your wedding this weekend.

Georgia ranks 2nd on being strict on drunk drivers
Georgia is considered one of the strictest states in the country on drunk drivers according to a WalletHub study. Georgia ranks second while Arizona was ranked number 1. The District of Columbia and South Dakota were considered to be the most lenient on drunk drivers.
Nationally, drunk driving accounted for 29 percent of motor vehicle accidents. According to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, drunk driving claims roughly 10,000 lives per year – costing Americans $ 44 billion annually.
States that vote majority Republican have tougher laws against drunk drivers than Democratic voting states and Georgia is a majority Republican voting state.
In Georgia, drunk driving fatalities are dropping. Last year, Georgia had 366 fatalities related to drunk driving, which is still too many.
The study divided into two categories: Prevention and Criminal Penalties. For Criminal Penalties, Georgia had the some of the highest rankings for being strict on drunk drivers particularly on insurance rate hikes and driver's license revocations.

Midwest #2: Rachel's Bungalow of Bright Ideas
What inspired you to use color? We couldn't paint and had a tight budget to purchase items to fill our new home. This lent itself to buying inexpensive pieces and painting them. I love the clean backdrop that our rental beige provides to our pink metal locker.
Color Tip: Don't be afraid to paint inexpensive furniture or accessories to match your quality pieces. Pillows don't have to have all the fun.

A thought-provoking quote from the inimitable William Faulkner (via Flavorwire)
At one time I thought the most important thing was talent. I think now that the young man or the young woman must possess or teach himself, training himself, in infinite patience, which is to try and to try until it comes right. He must train himself in ruthless intolerance — that is to throw away anything that is false no matter how much he might love that page or that paragraph. The most important thing is insight, that is to be — curious — to wonder, to mull, and to muse why it is that man does what he does, and if you have that, then I don't think the talent makes much difference, whether you've got it or not.

NBA playoff scores: Carter sends Mavericks past Spurs in Game 3
Dallas Mavericks guard Vince Carter, top, shoots the game-winning 3-point basket at the buzzer over San Antonio Spurs guard Cory Joseph (5) in the fourth quarter of Game 3 in the first round of the NBA basketball playoffsin Dallas, Saturday, April 26, 2014. (AP / LM Otero)
The Associated Press
Published Saturday, April 26, 2014 8:46PM EDT
Last Updated Sunday, April 27, 2014 8:53AM EDT
DALLAS -- Vince Carter hit a double-pump 3-pointer at the buzzer to give the Dallas Mavericks a 109-108 victory in Game 3 and a first-round series lead over the top-seeded San Antonio Spurs on Saturday.
Carter took an inbound pass from Jose Calderon with 1.7 seconds left in the left corner. After a quick pump fake in front of Manu Ginobili, Carter released the ball just before the buzzer. The winning shot was held up on review.
Ginobili had given the Spurs a 108-106 lead on a layup before Dallas called timeout to set up the play for Carter.
Monta Ellis kept the eight-seeded Mavericks close in the fourth quarter and finished with 29 points.
Tim Duncan led the Spurs with 22 points.
Game 4 is Monday night in Dallas.
Ginobili, who scored 12 points, dribbled out most of the last 24 seconds before going around Duncan and scoring over Samuel Dalembert. His go-ahead shot spun around the rim and almost came out before falling in.
ATLANTA -- Paul George and David West hit key 3-pointers down the stretch, and the top-seeded Indiana evened the opening-round series at two wins apiece.
In a game they had to have, the Pacers finally showed some grit. George put the Pacers ahead 86-85 with a jumper beyond the arc, and West hit another trey with 1:33 remaining.
Atlanta had a chance after Kyle Korver was fouled in the corner and knocked down three free throws. But George pulled down an offensive rebound to set up George Hill's driving shot with 56 seconds left.
Pero Antic missed a 3-pointer at the buzzer that would've forced overtime.
Game 5 is Monday in Indianapolis.
George scored 24 points. Paul Millsap led the Hawks with 29.
CHARLOTTE, N.C. -- LeBron James had 30 points and 10 rebounds, and Miami defeated Charlotte to take a 3-0 lead in the series.
Dwyane Wade added 17 points for the Heat, who can close out the best-of-seven Monday night.
James, who was an efficient 10 of 18 from the field, pushed his record to 18-0 against the Bobcats since joining the Heat in 2010. Miami has won 19 straight overall against Charlotte.
Al Jefferson had 20 points for the Bobcats, who are still searching for the first post-season win in franchise history.
After trailing most of the first half, the Heat took a 42-40 lead on a 3-pointer by Mario Chalmers. Miami closed the half on a 16-4 run.

The Boston University men's basketball team defeated the University of Maryland-Baltimore County Saturday night, 68-59, to claim its sixth straight victory.
The game started off with a historic mark for junior guard D.J. Irving. Following a UMBC (6-21, 4-10 America East) turnover, Irving hit a 3-pointer 1:19 into the game to give BU (17-11, 11-4 America East) a 3-0 lead. More importantly, the 3-point shot put Irving past the 1,000-point milestone.
"It's a great achievement for D.J., but I don't know how aware of it he was at the time," said BU coach Joe Jones. "He did not play like he was aware of it, which doesn't surprise me about him at all. He is such a team player."
In terms of celebration, the game did not pause to honor the milestone, and the Terriers kept building momentum off the big 3-pointer.
"We celebrated after the game," Jones said. "[Irving] always puts the team above all the individual stuff."
UMBC has been plagued by recent struggles, losing its last six games, but Jones made sure BU did not take the Retrievers lightly.
"You have to look at their scores," Jones said. "Besides [against the University of] Vermont, they have played really well at home. They've given everyone a good game at their place."
The Terriers, with strong play from junior forward Dom Morris in the paint, built on their early lead, and took a commanding 21-9 lead over UMBC after a layup from sophomore forward James Kennedy 12:16 into the half.
Though UMBC refused to roll over and die, the Retrievers were unable to catch up after BU's quick start.
At the end of the half, the Terriers had an 11-point lead over the Retrievers. Morris ended the half with eight points while BU recorded 16 points in the paint. UMBC guard Brian Neller led the home team with six points, courtesy of two 3-point baskets.
The second half started with more of the same for the Retrievers, and they found themselves down by 12 three minutes into the second half. After making a few adjustments, UMBC finally turned the match into a one-possession game when Neller nailed a free throw at the 10:50 mark of the final frame.
Responding to UMBC's attempted comeback, the Terriers stepped their game up. Thanks to baskets from freshman guard Maurice Watson Jr. and sophomore forward Malik Thomas, BU was able to separate itself from the struggling Retrievers once again.
In the last minutes of the game, Watson took over. With 10 points and two steals in the last 6:17 of play, Watson sealed the Terriers' sixth straight victory.
Watson led BU with 19 points and six assists while Irving, aside from having a milestone night, registered 17 points. After leading the Terriers at halftime with eight points, Morris disappeared in the second half and did not make another basket.
Freshman guard John Papale, after putting together a few strong performances in recent games, was nowhere to be found Saturday night. He went 0-for-7 from the field and missed all five shots he took from beyond the arc.
"We don't have to rely on one guy to score," Jones said. "At any given time there is going to be one or two of those guys that may not score a lot of points, whether it's in terms of a full game or a half, and we don't worry about that. We just want to make sure we are taking good shots and playing together."
Forward Chase Plummer led UMBC with 18 points while pulling down eight rebounds. Neller added 13 points for the Retrievers. UMBC struggled shooting the ball all night, finishing at 25 percent in the first half and 37.3 percent for the game from the field.
BU, with little more than personal pride on the line, is playing terrific basketball lately and has dominated America East in its farewell tour of the conference.
The Terriers' toughest challenge of the season is Thursday night at Agganis Arena, when they will take on America East-leading Stony Brook University in the season finale.
"We want to go out on top," Jones said. "We want to leave the right way."

Reese Witherspoon With Chelsea Handler
Reese Witherspoon's Sexy This Means War Scenes Gave Chelsea Handler a Boner
This Means War costars and friends Chelsea Handler and Reese Witherspoon were cracking up last night chatting about their sexy movie, social networking, and nude pics on Chelsea Lately. Chelsea said this is Reese's sexiest role yet (and having seen the movie, we have to agree!), especially the scene in which Reese is dancing in her underwear that Chelsea said "gave her a boner." They also discussed Chelsea's affinity for posting inappropriate pics on her Twitter and Facebook, and Chelsea said she's tried but failed to get a naked photo of Reese. Watch the clip now to hear what Reese said Chelsea would do with a nude pic of her if she ever succeeded in taking one!

Most adoptions from China require around a two week stay. Typically the first week is in the child's province and the second week in Guangzhou. Since our daughter is from the same province that Guangzhou is located in, we could have spent our entire trip in Guangzhou. We got most of our official stuff done in the first few days, but we must wait for our daughter's visa to be processed. We have one more big appointment later this week before we can return home. Instead of staying in Guangzhou, we traveled to Yangxi and Hailing Island.
Chris is very travel savvy and coordinated everything for us. We got to spend a day and night at Zhapo Dajiao Bay on the island. It is a resort area – very beautiful. It is not 'western friendly', in the sense that no one speaks english, there aren't picture menus and not much is written in english (like in the bigger cities). However, if you are ever in southern China and don't mind those things – we highly recommend visiting. If we had known ahead of time how great Yangxi and Zhapo Daijao Bay were, we would have stayed longer. Both are so much more slow paced…we Okies like slow pace 🙂
Little One rocked two headbands today…and we were still asked if she was girl.
(headbands from My Little Dear / LuLu & ChaCha)
She is smiling more just on her own without us working to make her smile. When she smiles really big her nose is all scrunched up in the cutest way.
Zhapo Dajiao Bay on Hailing Island
Chris found it online and read a few reviews (Chinese reviews translated with Google Translator). We really weren't sure what we'd find once we arrived. I think we've told the boys at least 20 times a day "remember it's an adventure"…for walking, food, hotels, etc. This adventure turned out really well.
In the bay area you have to pay a few dollars to swim. The boys played in the sand to their heart's delight.
And not to their delight, they were interrupted on numerous occasions for photo ops. They handled it all well. They asked if they could charge for posing in photos….smart boys. We told them "no".
It is so fun to have a snuggly baby in our arms again. So fun!
Group shots are an extra fee, no discounts. If we had let the boys charge, they could have made a killing today!
These girls were so giggly. They wanted a photo with our 6 year old but were too shy to ask. He was completely oblivious.
Still oblivious to his fan club, he started dancing on the beach. Giggles and laughter from the ladies ensued.
Trying to be sneaky with his camera phone. I think my way of coping was to take photos of people taking photos. Total coping mechanism.
My other coping mechanism when people are staring and photographing me…act awkward because I am not sure how else to handle being uncomfortable 🙂
So peaceful….southern China is beautiful.
Being the great traveler he is, Chris knew there was a free local beach on the other side of the bay…we like free. We also like Lonely Planet. The books are great, but they also have translator apps that don't require data service. Chris downloaded a Cantonese translator before we left so we were able to communicate the gist of what we needed.
The free beach. According to the Google maps he looked at there were no buildings near the beach. I think Google needs to do a little updating.
These pics are for their younger brother…they want him to see the building that looks like a Star Wars ship and the 'pirate' boat.
Hands. Lovely hands. Her hands are definitely related to coping and comfort. The more we learn her, the more we know that looking at her hands soothes her and is kind of like a retreat for her. The reality of living the majority of everyday in a crib means you find ways to comfort and cope. She must have found her hands. I am thankful it wasn't a toy or an object that had to be left behind. I'm thankful her hands get to go with her anywhere and everywhere. I look forward to when she allows us to be that steady comfort in her life.
The boys didn't know what to think about walking up to an aquarium and picking out their dinner.
She was so cute in the stroller tonight with her arms stretched out taking it all in happily. Back in April we got an update on her with new pictures. One of the pictures had her sticking her tongue out and it just stole my heart. I so giddy that I had my camera out fast enough to capture her doing it tonight as her daddy pushed her stroller. Goodness I love this girl.

With Betsey asleep in her room and Mason passed out on the living room couch, Charlotte heads into the kitchen. She just needs a minute to herself. She leans against the counter and closes her eyes.
Cooper walks in and looks at her. "Char?" He steps closer to her and squeezes her shoulder. "Sweetie?"
She blinks her eyes open and looks at her husband.
"What's wrong?"
"Aside from Betsey being scared that Mason's gonna hurt her?"
"We'll get back to that later, but yeah. You left, and when you came back, you were all jumpy and not present."
She sighs. "It's Amelia. She set off the alarm at the practice, so I had to go and tell the police that she wasn't breakin' in to the place. I didn't think it was this bad."
"What was this bad?"
"You can tell me. I'm your husband, so people can't expect you to keep their secrets from me."
She sighs. "She's doin' drugs, takin' pills again. She was at the practice gettin' her prescription pad to, uh, write her own prescriptions."
"So what are you gonna do? Are you gonna tell Addison?"
"I should. I think I need to tell everyone now that I know how bad it is. I can't help her by myself, maybe Addison or Sheldon or somebody can get through to her, maybe together we can."
He nods. "I'm sure it'll be ok. I'm sure she'll be ok. She got clean once, she can get clean again."
"It's not that simple, Coop."
"You would know."
"What's that s'posed to mean?"
He sighs. "Char."
"Sorry. I'm just a little on edge."
"A little?"
She glares at him.
He presses a kiss to her cheek. "Ok, so tell me about the Betsey-Mason thing?"
"Didn't you notice that she was avoiding him all night? They barely spoke to each other. She was practically glued to me or the arm of the couch the whole time."
"I didn't really notice. I mean, I noticed that they weren't really talking, but I just figured it was because this is the first time they're meeting. It's awkward and weird."
"Betsey asked me if he was gonna hurt her 'cause the last brother she had did really bad things to her. I told her he wouldn't do that, and I thought she believed me, but I guess she's still afraid. I don't blame the kid and I don't know Mason well enough to say for sure that he's not gonna—."
"You're not suggesting that my kid would hurt someone, are you? 'Cause I really hope you're not."
"I'm not sayin' that, Coop. I'm just sayin' that I can't say for sure that he's not gonna hurt her. I doubt he will. He doesn't seem like he would." She pauses. "But Betsey's still afraid and I don't know what to do to make sure she's comfortable, to make sure she believes me when I tell her Mason's not gonna hurt her. I assume Mason's gonna be spendin' a lot of time here and I just want them to get along, to be comfortable around each other."
He nods. "I'll have a talk with Mason and see if I can't get him to talk to Betsey more and play with her a little. It'll be fine. They'll be best friends soon enough."
She nods. "I hope you're right."
He hooks his arm around her and kisses the side of her head. "Let's go to bed. It's been a long day." He pauses. "By the way, you were really great with Mason. I knew you would be, but I'm just saying you were."
"He's a good kid. His mother on the other hand—."
She bites her tongue and leans against him. "Never mind." She lets out a breath and then they walk out of the kitchen and disappear into their bedroom.
