January 25, 2013
It was billed as one blowout of a party, a "fandango," with a tent for overflow guests, but so far no one has admitted attending the "open house" at Monsignor Kevin Wallin's Waterbury apartment last May.
"For some of you this will be a reminder and for others it will be the first you've heard of the Open House I am having this Wednesday, May 16, at my apartment in Waterbury," Wallin wrote in an email to dozens of church and community luminaries that was obtained by the Connecticut Post. "I am nearly settled in and very few friends have ever seen it. So I decided to have this event to let people see where I have been living since last July, and to celebrate my return to an active life with family, friends, the arts, and several other indispensable aspects of my existence that I had let fall by the wayside the last couple of years at Saint Augustine."
Brian Wallace, spokesman for the Roman Catholic Diocese of Bridgeport, acknowledged Tuesday that he had heard about the party some months after it was held.
"He obviously had a lot of friends," Wallace said of the invitation list that included city politicians, corporate heads and advisers to Bishop William Lori. But he said he later spoke to someone who went and they told him there were few people there.
"It had nothing to do with the diocese," he added.
The 61-year-old Wallin, who served as secretary to two bishops, and taught at a Greenwich middle school in the 1970s before running churches in Danbury and Bridgeport, created a scandal recently when he was arrested by federal authorities on drug charges. He's accused of selling upward of $9,000 of crystal meth a week.
Federal authorities said he was laundering his money through a sex shop he owned, called The Land of Oz, in North Haven.
Wallin had been pastor of St. Augustine's Cathedral Parish, but was suspended from his duties in July 2011 after diocese officials received complaints that Wallin was having sex with odd-looking men dressed in female garb that he brought to the rectory.
Sources said Wallin had also been seen dressed as a woman; when diocese officials searched his rooms, they found a collection of sex toys.
Bridgeport City Council President Tom McCarthy said he received an invitation to Wallin's party but also didn't go.
"I emailed him saying I could not make it," he said. "He was my pastor for years and I'm devastated by the whole thing."
Stamford architect David Goetsch said he didn't go, either.
"He [Wallin] dropped out of sight and I didn't have contact with him again," he said.
Philip Lacovara, who with his wife, Madeline, are close advisers to the bishop, acknowledged getting the invite but said he didn't go.
"I can't believe you are asking me about this," exclaimed Robert Chimini, purchasing agent for the town of Trumbull, before hanging up the telephone. Dan Braccio, program director for the Co-Op center with the Council of Churches, claimed he didn't know anything about the party.
Wallin was a popular figure who was very involved in the diocese and participated in many charitable events. He included invitations to Sister Joan Magnetti of the diocese's office of education, members of the local charity organization, Inner City Foundation and the staff of St. Peter Parish in Danbury. Other invitations went out to state members of the national Order of Malta, for which Wallin served as chaplain.
"These last eleven months have been perhaps the most unique of my life," wrote Wallin in his email to those invited.
"Despite the challenges and stresses they have been extremely productive and allowed me to regain my positive perspective and joy in life. I know only too well that for much of this past year I have been incommunicado and difficult to contact. I did not intend that to be the case when I embarked upon this leave."
Wallace said Wallin was initially sent to a medical center out of state, but eventually ended up at St. John Vianney Center in Downingtown, Pa., the oldest running behavioral health facility in North America for clergy. But Wallin left there without permission.
" I apologize to any and all who may have been offended by my silence," the email continues. "I pray you can appreciate the need I gradually recognized and faced, to step quite far away for a while in order to come back renewed and better than before."

A friend of mine released some songs with the following note:
Originally conceived for release on 3″ CD, this four-track EP was inspired by the many difficulties encountered over the years by women who are writers and writers who are women. It encompasses glitchy droning ambience, mellow downtempo beats, aggressive drum'n'bass, and distorted rhythmic dance.
I've found I really like track two while I'm actually writing:
I listen to very different music when I write English (or French) than when I write code, though. For writing human language, it's all about the classical with some jazz or wordless ambient electronica thrown in to mix it up. Or really, anything wordless can do in a pinch, but I find it hard to write and listen at the same time. And it's much worse if I'm listening to a different language from the one I'm writing (an issue given that I radio-flip a lot and we've got a decent number of non-English stations here). But for coding, it's completely different: there, it's all about the uptempo (fast) stuff, and words are fine. As a teenager I once scandalized my parents and my friends by coding away happily to ABBA for hours, and I can listen to stuff while coding that I find to monotonous if my brain's not engaged elsewhere.
So… what's your music of choice for your geeky (and non-geeky) activities. Do you have any pattern?
And, as you likely guessed, this is an open thread, so feel free to talk about anything else that's on your mind and needs sharing!

A pretty park of some historical significance, the first of three soldier statues erected in Queensland after the Boer War (1899-1902) is found in Allora's War Memorial Park in Warwick Street.
Colonel (later Sir) Harry Chauvel unveiled the soldier statue in 1904, honouring the four local men who died, and 35 others who served in the southern African conflict. The slightly smaller than life-size soldier statue, by sculptor William P Macintosh, is unusual in its details: the soldier's mouth is open and he stands alone, without the traditional tree stump for support.
Subsequent additions commemorate those who fought and died in World War I and World War II.
General JC Robertson unveiled Allora's WWI memorial - a sandstone and marble obelisk, small field guns carved into the pedestal - in November, 1921.
A second sandstone and marble obelisk, simpler in design, stands at the park's rear, serving as a WWII memorial.

beauty secrets, part three: sunscreens
12 comments:
- livefashionately said...
This was a fantastic post because it is so informative, and I need to know the reasons behind something before I will employ it myself, but often I am far too lazy to do the gruntwork, so I'm so happy that you did it all for me and made it so easy and enjoyable to read!
I would like to add to the point that I very rarely used sunscreen when outdoors, and I still managed to obtain a deficiency of Vitamin D, so in my case at least it is also totally unrelated to sunscreen application, although today I was reminded of what you have always said (before even noticing the new post!) and I put some on, so thank you!
I like to have the best of everything so I am going to hunt down the Clarins as soon as I have the time. Ahem, or you could lead me in the right direction.
But seriously, thank you. I hope I haven't damaged my skin too much already, and that it still looks youthful in 20 years! If so, you will definitely be receiving a thankyou basket ha ha ha.

Hi Laura, I discovered your blog tonight after reading your guest post for Sarah Ayoub's Wordsmith Lane. I think your blog is fabulous! I can really relate to so much of what you write.
I loved this beauty secrets post. You have actually helped me choose beauty products before - we realised that we go to the same uni (and both do law). I've been meaning to start my own blog for a while now, and seeing how someone just like me can create a blog as lovely as yours may just inspire me to do it!
- September 29, 2010 at 12:48 AM
What a great, informative post... For years I rarely wore sunscreen unless I knew I'd be outdoors for a few hours in summer (I hated the greasy, oily feeling - and being so pale, I just wanted to tan! When I saw a dermatologist in July this year, he chastised me for not wearing one. He gave me a brand called Cetaphil (frangrance free, hypo-allergenic, broad spectrum, SPF30+), which you can pick up in chemists. To also back up what you said Laura, he told me that a lot of my skin issues (blemishes, scarring and pigmentation) were actually enhanced by sun exposure -you can be sure I have used sunscreen every single day ever since!!

Hi Acacia :) Yes I remember you bought the blush because you had seen it featured on Primped! Please let me know when you get your blog up and running, I would love to read it! Thank you so much for your kind words, you are so sweet xx
Bel, thank you for letting me know about the Cetaphil sunscreen! My dermatologist recommended Cetaphil to me too :) I am so glad that you have discovered the beauty of wearing sunscreen... I bought a new one today and the slogan is "the single most important anti-ageing cream is sunscreen". It is so true! But what you mentioned is also important - that it helps with the overall tone, texture and condition of your skin, even for young people who are not seeing any signs of ageing yet :) Thank you lovely! xx

I love these beauty posts, you are so clever! I am a total sunscreen nerd now, after years of ignoring my mother when she told me to put on sunscreen. Now I am told I sound like my mother when urging others to wear sunscreen, but I don't care!
I am looking forwards to seeing the rest of these posts. Love lots xx

Thanks Kimby, the next one shouldn't be too far away! xx

Lol you read my blogger mind because I have just been preparing a sunscreen post on my own blog. I know firsthand the effects of the Australian sun on fair skin so I applaud this post. Laura, I'm also of the belief that 'at risk' skins - like really fair skin or those with a family history of skin cancer - absolutely need a sunscreen which is at least partially composed of a physical blocker - zinc or titanium - as the chemical sunscreens alone are not protective enough on at risk skin. Have you heard of this?
- October 3, 2010 at 11:10 AM
- Laura Valerie said...
Hi lovely.
As I said in the post, there is a perception that physical sunscreens are more reliable than chemical sunscreens but according to my research there is virtually no science to back that up. One brand I worked for even used a purely chemical sunscreen as their heavy-duty, beach sunscreen because physical sunscreens are more easily sweated or rubbed away. If you know of any research that suggests otherwise please let me know! The best advice I have is, if in doubt, to use a hybrid; a sunscreen that contains both physical and chemical blockers.
With respect to avobenzone (the one broad spectrum chemical blocker - of course any other chemical blocker is not as effective as physical blockers because it does not protect against UVA rays), only one study I have read managed to show that it had degenerated at a faster rate to physical sunscreens. Unfortunately that study was never published in a scientific journal because it was not conducted under satisfactory scientific conditions (a very small sample size, in a petri dish) - it was only written up in a health magazine, which is the source of its bad reputation. Also research showed that the degeneration rate was halved over 72 hours. Clearly, 72 hours is far too long to be relying upon your sunscreen for anyway!
My philosophy is that as long as you are using a broad spectrum, SPF30+ sunscreen you should be okay. That said, I have olive skin so I say, do what is best for you. If you find that physical blockers are more effective for your skin, then by all means favour them.
I hope that clears things up a little! xx
- October 3, 2010 at 11:53 AM
Yes - it is such a confusing topic in this aspect. I've tried to find a lot of research myself but it is hard to sort fact from common fiction. I do think that people should not be spending heaps of time in the sun anyway, especially in Australia because the sun is 'stronger' here. I personally cannot use many chemical sunscreens as they irritate my skin - on my face that is. Then there is the question of expiry dates and the longevity of sunscreens but I think most people should be replacing their larger bottles every summer anyway. x

Unity Health System plans to start a certified home health agency, Unity officials said Thursday.
Home health care agencies send nurses and aides to provide temporary home health services, most often to recovering post-operative patients. Medicare payments account for a large slice of home health care reimbursements and Medicare certified agencies are generally the largest. So-called licensed agencies have state approval but do not have the federal Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services' authorization to take Medicare payments.
Unity's home health service would be the area's fourth Medicare-certified agency and its third non-profit certified home care service. It would join the non-profit Lifetime Care and Visiting Nurse Service of Rochester and Monroe County Inc. and the for-profit HCR Home Care.
Lifetime Care is associated with Excellus Blue Cross Blue Shield. VNS is part of the University of Rochester Medical Center. HCR is a locally based employee stock ownership plan company.
Unity projects serving 900 patients in its first year of operation in 2013 and expects to serve some 5,000 by the end of 2015, system officials said.
The state Department of Health until recently had blocked new home care agencies, hewing to a moratorium on approvals for the past 32 years. After the department lifted the ban in January, it saw a flood of applications, fielding more than 100 but approving only 27. Unity was the only Monroe County home care applicant to win its approval.
In recommending that the department green light Unity's application, the Finger Lakes Health Systems Agency cited a projected 32 percent increase in demand for home care services by 2020.

Missoula 5th Graders Building Middle School Transition Skills [AUDIO]
The transition from 5th grade to middle school can be traumatic for students, so two groups are getting together to help make things a bit easier.
Graduation Matters Missoula and the National Coalition Building Institute are conducting workshops to help them build positive attributes which may ease the stress that they experience when transitioning from elementary to middle school and beyond.
NCBI Director of Youth Programs Heidi Wallace says the workshops are being funded with a $3,600 grant to Graduation Matters Missoula from the Montana Office of Public Instruction.
Studies show that students in transition from elementary to middle school and middle to high school often experience anxiety when moving into a new school, meeting new students and learning a new class schedule. Positive youth development focuses on building positive attributes and developing resilience that help students successfully navigate these transitions. Specifically, the goals of the workshops are to increase resiliency in 5th graders and build a positive school culture; create increased engagement in school; empower youth to build safer and more inclusive learning environments; and support middle school transition, increased graduation rates, and academic success.

Many presumed that Michael Smuin's death in 2007 would result in the death of Smuin Ballet, the San Francisco-based dance company he founded and had presided over for 13 years. According to those close to the dancer, Tony-award-winning choreographer and theater director, the prospect of someone filling his shoes seemed remote.
"I think a lot of people did not imagine that the company could continue without Michael," says Celia Fushille, a former dancer with the company. "When they found out it was continuing they wondered if it could be as good."
And yet, seven years since the company's namesake was felled so suddenly by an unexpected heart attack, the company is gearing up for the final performances of its 20th season.
After Smuin's death, Fushille was appointed to the position of artistic director, and, shortly thereafter, executive director. Under Fushille's watch, the company has not only persevered it has thrived, garnering praise from the likes of The New York Times for its innovative programming, attracting world-class dancers and working with award-winning and internationally recognized choreographers.
According to Fushille, the company has survived because, in many ways, its founder never left. "His spirit is still infusing the company," the executive director says of her predecessor, whom she first met when she was just 17.
Amy Seiwert, the company's choreographer in residence was mentored by the late Smuin. According to Fushille, sometimes, while blocking out a dance, Seiwert will say "'Michael is telling me to do this and he is telling me to do that.'"
"It's true!" Seiwert says with a laugh.
The choreographer first began working with Smuin as a dancer, back in 1999. The first ballet she created for the company was in 2004. Along the way, the late Smuin gave her lots of feedback and advice, she says.
"When I watch my ballets -- while I'm creating them, while I watch them critically -- I'll hear his comments," Seiwert says. "The funny thing is, I won't always agree with his critiques, even in my head."
And in a roundabout way, Seiwert not agreeing with the super-ego version of Smuin she carries around with her, is a product of Smuin's mentorship.
"He never once encouraged me to imitate him," Seiwert remembers. Rather, he encouraged her to follow her own intuition. "That was a pretty huge gift."
"In a way Michael Smuin didn't take himself too seriously," Fushille says. "In that same spirit, this program is representative of that attitude." Clarifying her point, Fushille adds that Smuin was certainly serious about his work. But, at the same time, he never felt tied too tightly by tradition.
Case in point: Smuin Ballet's 2010 original production, "Oh, Inverted World" -- which set the company's dancers leaping, pirouetting and plié-ing to music from the 2001 album of the same name by Portland indie rock band, The Shins.
Fushille commissioned acclaimed choreographer Trey McIntire to create the Shins-inspired production, which attracted a great deal of attention and drew praise from the New York Times. A short montage of the performance posted on YouTube has close to 44,000 views.
Smuin Ballet is known for choreographing ballet and modern dance to rock 'n' roll groups, like The Beatles.
In addition to being somewhat of an iconoclast by nature, Smuin Ballet has diverged from convention as a matter of necessity. The company currently has 17 dancers -- orders of magnitude fewer than their neighbors, the San Francisco Ballet. By virtue of their size, they can't do classic productions, like Swan Lake. According to Fushille, Smuin was OK with that. In fact, he preferred working on a smaller scale.
Before starting his company, the late Smuin was co-director of the San Francisco Ballet. That's where Fushille first met him. "When (Smuin) left to start his own company," Fushille recalls, "he said, 'I used to do large paintings, but now I'm a miniaturist.' He felt he was creating jewels."
According to Seiwert, the small scale of Smuin Ballet makes for a great introduction to live dance. Smuin productions are almost always staged in smaller venues, such as the Mountain View Center for the Performing Arts, where they will bring their final show of the 2013-14 season, "XXcentric," next week.
"Smaller is good often," Seiwert says. "One of the nice things about the smaller houses, is your experience is often more intimate, which leads you to having this personal relationship with the person on stage.
"I am starting to really dislike seeing ballets in an opera house," she adds. That's because the affordable seats are often so far back, that you can barely make out the dancers.
Fushille says she is hopeful that the company's style will work in attracting younger audiences to the ballet, while the group's grounding in the classics will keep older, more traditional patrons coming. The company's slogan is "Beyond Ballet," and each of productions in this year's season -- "XXtremes," "XXmas" and "XXcentric" -- seem to be named to both acknowledge the 20th anniversary of Smuin and make a statement.
"We're not your classic tutu ballet," Fushille says -- both literally and figuratively. While the company has staged productions wherein the dancers wear the frilly skirt commonly associated with ballet, Smuin programs tend to skew modern. "There is that spirit of openness and kind of that anything goes at Smuin Ballet."

Either U.S. stocks need to pull back, or Chinese equities need to get their act together.
That's the suggestion in a Deutsche Bank note out Tuesday in the wake of Monday's disappointing Chinese economic data that weighed on stocks worldwide.
"Looking at a longer time horizon, it's interesting that in the 5 year period since the lows on March 9th 2009 the S&P 500 has gone up by over 2.7 times in price terms, whereas the Shanghai Composite is actually slightly down," Deutsche Bank strategists Jim Reid and Anthony Ip said in the note.
The above chart shows how the S&P and Shanghai index have gone their separate ways, despite the strong links between the world's two largest economies.
The strategists point out that China's economy has expanded significantly in the past five years — growing 68% in nominal terms since January 2009, according to the note. So from a high-level or top-down view, investors perhaps had great expectations. But the performance of the individual stocks that actually make up the Shanghai Composite hasn't been impressive.
Here's how Reid and Ip put it: "So it does seem that the market is telling us something quite different from the bottoms-up perspective to what the top down has been telling us."
At some point, Chinese stocks have to show more strength, right? The strategists write: "Surely such a divergence can\'t go on forever?"
Of course, another way for the divergence to end, if it does end, is with U.S. stocks halting their five-year bull run.

Steve Ballmer Declares 'Free Is Not A Business Model' -- Apparently Unfamiliar With Microsoft's Free Products
from the check-'em-out,-steve deptJosh W points us to an article about Microsoft new mobile phone software that contains an odd quote from Steve Ballmer, responding to a question concerning Microsoft's plans to compete with Google's free Android mobile operating system:
"Free is not a business model," he said. "We are a commercial company, we will look to gain revenue and profit from our activities. You'll have to ask our competitors if they'll make money on free things."Internet explorer. Bing. Microsoft's new security software. All free. All offered by Microsoft. Is Steve Ballmer admitting that he doesn't know about any of these things... or is he just expecting that the reporter and the readers of the article are flat-out stupid? Clearly, Microsoft seems to recognize that free is a part of lots of smart business models, so why is its CEO apparently acting clueless on this front? As clearly anyone who thought this through knows, free by itself is not a business model, but free, in combination with a larger business model often makes a lot of sense. That's what Google is doing, and it's what Microsoft is doing as well. So why is Steve Ballmer pretending otherwise?

However, should release it with 2Ghz support soon. http://www.supermicro.com/PRODUCT/SUPERServer/SuperServer8042.htm Intel's Netburst architecture used in P4P and Xeon processors requires has many new performance-enhancing functions (SSE2, Net-burst Architecture, Hyper-threading, etc.) which require compilers that are aware of how to use them. Unfortunately, many developers are using GCC which has few/poor optimizations for Netburst. PGI is better, and the Intel compilers are very good at extracting the best performance. A compiler that doesn't know about Netburst won't often: - Deliver the best floating point throughput - Effectively utilize data prefetching - Automatically parallelize (vectorize) code The good news for developers is that the Intel compilers also product the best code for most x86 machines -- in fact AMD often uses them to compile their benchmarks. Intel also has hand packed MKL's and primitives which can take full advantage of Netburst. Information, free evaluations, etc. are all available here: http://www.intel.com/software/products/ There are also a few 3rd parties that have written reviews. They show how well the Intel compilers work, but don't highlight the additional gains available on Netburst nor show the other tools (VTune, MKL's, etc.) that can further enhance performance: http://www.intel.com/software/products/global/prodreview.htm BOTTOM LINE: AMD's brute force approach (big/fast L1/L2 caches and faster x87-like FPUs) don't require optimizations to extract performance. But the architecture has limits and doesn't scale well -- this is why Intel is quickly increasing it's GHz advantage vs AMD. Intel took a different approach and rearchitected the cpu to scale rapidly. But this new architecture requires a new generation of compilers to deliver optimal applications. A good explanation of the functional differences between the original Northwood and thunderbird are found here: http://www.tech-report.com/reviews/2001q1/pentium4/ Hope this helps.

Celiac disease is an autoimmune disease of the digestive tract. In celiac disease, eating food with gluten damages little bulges in the small intestine. These bulges, called villi, absorb nutrients from foods. The condition affects the absorption of all nutrients. Untreated patients often become malnourished.
Inner circle demonstrates protrusions affected by celiac disease.
Copyright © Nucleus Medical Media, Inc.
Doctors do not fully understand what causes celiac disease. Eating gluten seems to be involved. There is most likely a genetic factor. Patients with specific genes develop the disease after exposure to gluten. There is some evidence that earlier exposure in infancy can cause a more severe disease than later exposure.
Risk factors that increase your chance of having celiac disease include:
Symptoms vary and may start in childhood or adulthood. Children often have different symptoms than adults. Symptoms may not develop if a large section of the intestine is undamaged. Malnutrition may produce the first signs of the condition, which are often the most serious.
Signs and symptoms may include:
You will be asked about your symptoms and medical history. A physical exam will be done.
Your body tissues and fluids may be tested. This can be done with:
Images may be taken of your body intestines. This can be done with endoscopy.
A life-long,
gluten-free diet
is the only treatment for celiac disease. It is very effective. Symptoms usually go away within days of starting the diet. However, healing of the villi may take months or years. Additional intake of gluten can damage the intestines, even if you have no symptoms. Delayed growth and tooth discoloration may be permanent. Nutritional supplements, given through a vein, may be needed if the intestinal damage does not heal. Since gluten is added to many foods, the diet can be complicated and often frustrating. Some patients find support groups helpful.
You must avoid all foods containing:
This includes most bread, pasta, cereal, and processed foods. Special gluten-free breads and pastas are available. They are made with potato, rice, soy, or bean flour. A dietitian can assist you with meal planning.
Gluten is found in some unexpected foods and beverages. Carefully read all labels. Other foods with gluten include:
Ordering at restaurants can be especially challenging, since many foods on the menu may contain gluten.
Patients with celiac disease should be tested to make sure they are getting enough nutrients.
Bone density testing
may also be needed. If you lack vitamins or minerals, the doctor may advise taking supplements. However, once the disease is under control with a gluten-free diet, this is often not necessary.
There are no guidelines for preventing celiac disease because the cause is not understood. If celiac disease runs in your family, ask your doctor about a screening test. The earlier you start the gluten-free diet, the less damage there will be to the intestine.

Elena Kagan isn't just the potential fifth vote for standard issue left-wing mischief (if the Democrats are able to replace one of the four and a half Justices standing in the way). She's a cutting edge mischief maker in her own right.
For example, Kagan was unable to testify, in response to a question from Senator Coburn, that the federal government lacks the power under the Commerce Clause to dictate what Americans must eat.
Rob Long at Ricochet is taking this very personally. He writes:
When they came for my gun, I said nothing, because I had no gun. When they came for my capital gains, I said nothing, for (since 2008) I've had no capital gains. But when they came for my pimento cheese, my oyster po'boy, my Frito chili pie, I could say nothing, for there was no one else left to speak, and also: my mouth was full.

Wanda Sykes's routine at the White House Correspondents' Association Dinner this past weekend has given rise to most of the news coming out of the event. John posted Sykes's performance here. Barack Obama appeared to have found her wish for the death of Rush Limbaugh amusing. Sykes also accused Rush of treason. It is somewhat strange that a professional commentator should became the butt of such vicious musings at a correspondents' dinner.
Obama's own routine has understandably attracted less commentary than Sykes's, but it's worth a look. Part 1 of the video is here, part 2 here. It's an odd performance. Obama laughs inappropriately at his own material, finding humor that is not otherwise apparent even to an audience that is closer to a core constituency than simply friendly.
The humor of much of Obama's routine is attenuated at best. He sought to turn the 9/11-related Scare Force One incident into a joke courtesy of his daughters. Another vein of the material sought laughs in the relationship between Obama and Hillary Clinton. Here the thought was that she might like him to pass. I think it fair to say it's not funny, though it's not as unfunny as Sykes's musings about Rush.
Clinton wasn't the only odd target of Obama's routine. Dick Cheney also found himself the butt of a lame joke regarding his memoirs, putatively titled How to Shoot Friends and Interrogate People. We know that Obama has an incredibly thin skin. We can conclude that Vice President Cheney has gotten under it. At least on the evidence of the joke, Cheney also has the better of the argument to which it alludes.
Among the other strange targets of Obama's routine were House Minority Leader John Boehner and GOP Chairman Michael Steele. Obama drew attention to Boehner's whiteness and Steele's blackness. Again, the humor was slight, but also classless.
A look back at President Bush's performances at these dinners provides a useful contrast. Take a look for yourself at Bush's remarks at the dinner in 2007 and 2008. In addition to the occasionally funny material, Bush's 2007 performance has moving acknowledgements of David Bloom, Tony Snow and Elizabeth Edwards.

Before I get to the garden report, I forgot to include the photo below in my last post. We waited for this primitive welcome flag for over a month and were so happy to see it arrive last week! Click on the photo for a better view. The Squash House now considers itself officially christened!
Unlike the photo above which was taken on a beautiful, sunny day, my garden photos of yesterday were taken in a monsoon! Except for a little while in the morning, it rained heavily all day! Apparently this is very unusual for this time of year in our neck of the woods. They say it normally turns very hot right after the Hot Air Balloon Stampede! Not so now. I had to hold the umbrella in one hand so as not to get the camera wet! Below is a view of the raised bed area - a good deal of growth since last week - there are even teeny, tiny peppers beginning to show, and the Marigolds have really taken off!
We decided to plant a cantaloupe or two on a whim. A city a bit south and west of us in Oregon, Hermiston, is known for its cantaloupes, so we thought we'd give them a try here.
The plants below on either side of the drip line are 3 varieties of Eggplant. Another whim planted recently. As soon as they were planted, one of the neighborhood squirrels came over for a look - Mr. Squash decided to name him Parmesan! On the right of the eggplant are sunflowers - not yet appearing above ground, and the dark colored thing in the back of the photo is the potato tower - Yukon Gold potatoes doing quite nicely so far!
Finally, here is the very sad pumpkin, zucchini, pickling cuke area. Not a lot of growth going on here - not sure why as they get lots of sunshine, but I'm hoping they will surprise us as the weather gets warmer.
Thanks for stopping by! I've cleared my sewing workspace and brought back an "old friend" to try and finish. Stay tuned for peeks.

What I liked best about this Mishimoto oil catch can was the level sight tube and the larger size than most other catch cans. I was not impressed with just an empty can though. I inserted a 7/16" plastic tube to bring the incoming vapors down about half way into the can. I also put four 3M company copper metal cleaning pads inside to give the oil vapor a much better chance to condense inside of the catch can. After my modifications it would would be a very solid 5 not a 4 as I gave it.

Stocks rallied on Monday, with the Dow industrials rebounding after a five-day losing streak, as voting in Crimea passed without violence and after economic reports had U.S. manufacturing output jumping the most in six months in February.
"We've gotten used to markets that are going to price in the worst-case scenario," said Art Hogan, chief market strategist at Wunderlich Securities, of the possibility of violence or military conflict during the weekend as a referendum was held in Crimea on whether to join Russia.
"Even when things may not be pretty, so to speak, when it's expected," the market is typically satisfied, said JJ Kinahan, chief strategist at TD Ameritrade, who noted the CBOE Volatility Index (VIX), a measure of investor uncertainty, on Monday fell 12 percent to 15.70. Investors "were paying up on Friday for protection going into this weekend, just in case, which allowed them to keep their long positions."
On Monday, President Barack Obama imposed sanctions against Russian officials after voters in Crimea on Sunday endorsed separating from Ukraine to join Russia. The U.S. announcement came after the European Union announced travel bans and asset freezes on 21 people.
In a nationally televised news conference, Obama called the sanctions an initial step, and said the U.S. was ready to impose further sanctions should Russia escalate the situation.
Economic reports had U.S. industrial output rising in February; up 0.8 percent, and better than the 0.1 percent rise anticipated by economists polled by Reuters. And, the March Empire State Factory Index climbed to 5.61 in March after a reading of 4.48 the prior month.
Stocks maintained gains after a monthly measure of home builder confidence rose a tepid 1 point to 47 in March, with the latest reading still below 50, the line between positive and negative on the survey released by the National Association of Home Builders.
"For a market that was down five days in a row last week, it looks like it's going to test a bit of a reflex rally here," said Hogan.

Athol Man Sentenced to Prison for Pointing Unloaded Shotgun at State Trooper
A man who pointed a shotgun at a state trooper will spend the next 15 years in prison after pleading guilty to aggravated assault of a law officer.
According to the American News, Randall J. Jungwirth, 46, of Athol was sentenced to 15 years, with five years suspended, for pointing an unloaded shotgun on a South Dakota Highway Patrol trooper on November 6 of last year.
The incident began when the trooper spotted Jungwirth's pickup truck stuck in a ditch near Athol. The trooper decided to administer a field sobriety test. That is when things got out of hand.
As he did, Jungwirth returned to his pickup and grabbed a shotgun. A struggle between the men ensued, and Jungwirth pulled the trigger of the weapon twice, according to facts in the case. The trooper did not realize the shotgun was not loaded, Vic Fischbach, Spink County state's attorney, previously said.
In accordance with the plea deal, Jungwirth must serve at least 50 percent of his sentence before he is eligible for parole. In addition, Jungwirth was ordered to pay court costs.
As part of the plea deal, Jungwirth was not charged with drunk-driving, which would have been his third charge in a 10-year span, which would have resulted in another felony charge.

Activist Hedge Fund Scores Another PE Sale With Hot Topic
Small activist hedge-fund Becker Drapkin chalked up a tidy $50 million payday on the $600 million buyout of Hot Topic.
The firm first revealed it had taken a 5% stake in September 2010 when shares traded between $5 and $6. Sycamore Partners agree to acquire Hot Topic this week for $14 a share, valuing Becker Drapkin's stake, which had grown to 8.4%, at about $50 million in the sale.
Becker Drapkin more than doubled its initial investment, according to an investor presentation.
At the time of its investment, Becker Drapkin, which had teamed up with Carlson Capital, said that Hot Topic's shares were undervalued and that they were consider nominating board members.
Less than three weeks later the fund reached a settlement with Hot Topic. Becker Drapkin's co-founders Steven Becker and Matthew Drapkin were added to Hot Topic's board and within six months the CEO and other top executives had been changed.
Since then, the teen-clothing retailer has closed stores and shut down a music website, ShockHound, that competed with Amazon and Apple's iTunes, which Mr. Drapkin said "made no sense."

New York Yankees reliever Mariano Rivera is expected to announce Saturday that he will retire after the coming season. The ensuing months will be filled with bows and farewells, cheers and standing ovations, and, at the end, one final tip of the cap -- a fitting close for the greatest closer of all time.
Debates on that front ceased a long time ago. Rivera, 43, will leave the game as its all-time saves leader and a five-time World Series winner (six, if the crumbling Yankees somehow pull off the impossible). He has more postseason saves than the combined total of the next two on the list, Brad Lidge and Dennis Eckersley.
With Rivera's legacy as the greatest already secured, now seems an appropriate time to compare him to former San Diego Padre Trevor Hoffman, second on the all-time saves list:
Career stats: In 2010 Hoffman retired with 601 saves, then the all-time record. Rivera surpassed him the next season and currently sits at 608. Rivera's career ERA of 2.21 is virtually unmatched among pitchers who have thrown more than 1,000 innings (Eddie Cicotte's 2.20 is No. 1). Hoffman's 2.87 ERA puts him among the elite, if not in Rivera's halo.
Postseason performance: Hoffman recorded four saves in only 13 innings for the Padres, who rarely made the playoffs during his career. Through 141 innings, Rivera holds the all-time record for lowest postseason career ERA (0.70). His 42 saves are another all-time best.
Awards: Rivera is a 12-time All-Star and the only reliever to win both an LCS MVP award and a World Series MVP award. Hoffman was a seven-time All-Star.
Trademark pitch: Rivera's cut fastball might be the most dominant pitch in the game's history. Hoffman's changeup is merely the best of its generation.
Entrance song: "Hells Bells" for Hoffman. "Enter Sandman" for Rivera.
Projected HOF induction: These two are shoo-ins. Hoffman becomes eligible for Hall of Fame induction in 2016. Rivera will be enshrined in 2018. Only five relievers have been inducted.

The Harbaugh brothers and Baltimore Ravens linebacker Ray Lewis are popular stories leading up to Super Bowl XLVII.
The stories are hardly important to Greg and Rebecca Beckler of Orange County. Their attention is on Raelyn Beckler, their toddler daughter who was diagnosed with acute lymphoblastic leukemia a year ago. However, the Big Game remains relevant in their lives.
That's because friends and family are ready to support Raelyn with a Super Bowl party on Sunday.
Mike Mackellar, one of the Beckler's friends, has offered his Shady Canyon home in Irvine as the site of party central for the NFL championship game that features the San Francisco 49ers against the Baltimore Ravens.
Alan Freeman, of local promotions group Diamond Productions, created a Facebook page: Shady Canyon Super Bowl Party – Mike Mackellar for Raelyn Beckler.
The party, in the name of charity, starts at 2 p.m. A minimum entry of fee of $10 will be collected.
There will be a huge, big screen projection TV along with several flat-screen TVs. A DJ will be spinning tunes for dancing at halftime and after the game.
Several local companies and sponsors will be present to help out their favorite little girl and her family.
There are many challenges and medical bills that the Becklers have confronted and are explained on a website at http://www.giveforward.com/raelynbeckler.
The website also features heartwarming photos of Raelyn and her family.
She still manages to smile as she is undergoing monthly chemotherapy treatments at Children's Hospital of Orange County.
Raelyn also takes a chemotherapy pill each day, steroids one week out of every month and weekend medicine to fight off infections.
The plan is for her to receive this treatment until April 2014.
"Raelyn unfortunately is unable to attend preschool because of her illness," the site reads in a message from Greg Beckler.
There are babysitting costs up to $1,300 each month. In addition, medical bills come to the family daily. The bills average $300 a week that their insurance does not cover.
After the Super Bowl, the football champions will be celebrated.
But the Becklers and their friends are planning there to be more than just one winner from the Big Game.

Ruling has a major impact on Pilates teachers and manufacturers.
NEW YORK - When Joseph Pilates established his self-titled form of exercise, he probably had no idea that his name would one day be the cause of a legal battle.
As reported in our August 1999 issue (Whose Name Is It Anyway?, page 32), the New York-based Pilates studio had purchased the Pilates name as a trademark in the early '80s. Those who wanted to use the Pilates name had to pay a licensing fee; those who wanted to teach Pilates had to receive certification through the studio.
Balanced Body, a Sacramento-based manufacturer of Pilates equipment, took exception to the studio's Pilates trademark and filed a lawsuit.
The litigation lasted for five years, according to Balanced Body. Recently, a decision came down from a Manhattan federal court, with Balanced Body claiming victory.
A written statement from Balanced Body pointed out that U.S. District Court Judge Miriam Cedarbaum ruled that Pilates, like yoga and karate, is a type of exercise, not a trademark. In other words, it's a generic term that cannot be monopolized. The court also rejected the argument that only teachers certified by the Pilates Studio were qualified to teach the Pilates method.
This decision should come as good news to Pilates teachers, studios and manufacturers across the country that had been prevented from using the term Pilates in any form. To find out more about the court case, visit www.balancedbody.com/lawsuit.html.

[M]editation is the power of prayer that holds our attention at the still point of conversion, where we are shocked into reality by acceptance. By being rooted in this place of transformation which is not geographical but spiritual, our own inmost centre, we are changed from being an approximation, a mere imitation of ourselves, into the exact original of who we are.
"I implore you by God's mercy to offer your very selves to him: a living sacrifice, dedicated and fit for his acceptance, the worship offered by mind and heart. Adapt yourselves no longer to the pattern of this present world, but let your minds be remade and your whole nature thus transformed" (Romans 12:1-2).
The life of the spirit in human nature is a continual repatterning. The step of faith we spend our lives perfecting is simply the one step by which we let our minds be remade and our whole being transfigured. For "this present world" let us read "ego": the part that thinks it is the whole. It has come involuntarily to block and unconsciously to distort the mystery of life because of the patterns it had formed through pain and rejection; the perception of a world without love. [. . . .]
Even if meditation were no more than a brief daily dip into the kingdom within us, it would merit our complete attention. But it is far more than a temporary escape from the prison of our patterns of fear and desire. Complex as these patterns are, making us fear the death and the true love that are necessary for our growth and survival, meditation simplifies them all. Day by day, meditation by meditation, this process of simplification proceeds. We become gradually more fearless until, in the joy of being released from the images and memories of desire, we taste total freedom from fear. And then---and even before then---we become of use to others, able to love without fear or desire. . .released to serve the Self which is the Christ within.
Lord, what shall I do that I
can't quiet myself?
Here is the bread, and
here is the cup, and
I can't quiet myself.
To enter the language of transformation!
To learn the importance of stillness,
with one's hands folded!
When will my eyes of rejoicing turn peaceful?
When will my joyful feet grow still?
When will my heart stop its prancing
as over the summer grass?
Lord, I would run for you, loving the miles for your sake.
I would climb the highest tree to
be that much closer.
Lord, I will learn also to kneel down
into the world of the invisible,
the inscrutable and the everlasting.
Then I will move no more than the leaves of a tree
on a day of no wind,
bathed in light,
like the wanderer who has come home at last
and kneels in peace, done with all unnecessary things;
every motion; even words.
