Legion baseball's Class A West District Tournament begins here today.
After the back-and-forth following the Cody-Powell doubleheader two weeks ago, let's hope everyone — players, coaches, parents and fans — is on his or her best behavior.
It's unclear who started the fracas last time the teams met. It appears to depend on which side of the fence a person was on — literally.
Coaches, fans and players all have received their share of the blame.
One thing is clear: Hot tempers, poor sportsmanship and bad language all made an appearance.
It's expected that tensions will run high during games, especially when longtime rivals meet.
But participants and fans need to keep in mind that they're setting examples. Young kids look up to their heroes on the field, and, likewise, players look to their coaches and parents for guidance.
Bad behavior has no place on the baseball diamond.
So this weekend, root for your team, cheer on your kid, play hard — and keep it civil.

KALAMAZOO (WKZO) -- For the last month Michigan United has been demonstrating outside Congressman Fred Upton's downtown Kalamazoo office, demanding he support Immigration Reform.
They have dumped off piles of apples and even staged a sit-in last week.
This week, now that Upton has pledged to attempt to get Immigration reform taken care of before New Years, they are sending him a big "Thank You" card.
On it are the pictures of 30 children from his district who have seen parents or relatives deported or sanctioned in other ways because they are not citizens.
Its not clear they both define immigration reform the same way, but its movement.

Balboa Island Waterfront Vacation Rentals Vacation Rentals(20)

Comfortable Balboa Island Stay
If you wish for a water front location with water sports equipment, this is it. The kayaks and paddle boards, for my family, is the deal maker. Launch or watch from your vacation door step. Perfect size for 6-7 persons, close to the shops, without the noise and traffic. The home is clean and inviting. The owner gave us perfect and accurate instructions. I most certainly recommend this to friends, and plan on a future stay. If you need transportation, park the car, move it only for street sweeping day, rent bikes (beach cruisers) across the Balboa ferry on the peninsula, and you are set! Stock up on groceries the first day, and if you forget something, you can bike to a super market less than a mile away across the main bridge on Bayside Drive. If you want ocean waves, make an adventure out of your stay by traveling to 18th Street on the peninsula by way of ferry, and ocean front bike path. Bungee the wave and skim boards on the basket and handlebars. 18th is great because it's a 20 minute journey, less crowded than the spots near parking lots, and the sand flattens out, with the start of longer (no shore break) waves. And you're a stones throw from the Newport Pier, 20th St., with shops and food spots. When your done at the ocean beach, head back to Grand Canal, and board or kayak around the Balboa Island, and Little Island too. You can keep any eye on the kids while barbecuing dinner.
Lovely Home & Owners!!!
We did not know what to expect? We have stayed in Newport on many occasion, but had not ventured to rent on Balboa Island. Wow, what a fun week! The owners were warm hearted, fun, and very helpful. We spent our mornings shell hunting a few minutes away on the beach in Corona Del Mar, and several afternoons and early evenings with our kids outside of the home on the most comfortable veranda under an umbrella drinking mimosa's and/or cold beers. The kids were able to frolic in the water, while we relaxed and watched them giggle and have fun. It was hard to motivate from this point on; however, being only a few steps from Marine avenue was great for shopping and dining. I would highly recommend chatting with the owners, they had several great dining recommendations, especially for happy hour at some of the locals favorite spots. Crystal Cove beach was a short drive and was a fun spot to spend with boogie boards and sand toys. Thanks again for making our stay on Balboa Island so memorable!
It was our second visit to this lovely home and our third consecutive July 4th on the island. We absolutely love this home, it's location and,of course, the island. The new addition of paddle boards to their extensive amenities make the home even more family friendly and affordable. Anything that makes two moms and 4 kids, ages 11-23, happy is a 5 star in my book! Thank you for allowing us to use your home again! We will be back!!

Good Question: How Do I Cook Chayote Squash?
Here's a good question from Sirisha, who is wondering how to cook chayote. She has one method of cooking it, but would like some more. Can you help her?
I have a question about chayote squash. I see them a lot in the market. So, I was wondering what can be made out of this vegetable?
Here's how Sirisha cooks chayote:
2 chayote squash, peeled and cubed.
1 small onion roughly cut into wedges
1/2 jalapeno
1/4 tsp ginger garlic paste
1/4 tsp cumin seeds
S&P per taste.
Heat some EVOO in a pan, add cumin seeds, let splutter and add onions, cook until translucent, then add ginger garlic paste and jalapenos, swirl around, add the squash, salt and pepper and a little water to get it going. Let cook until squash is tender but not soggy. Add lemon juice in the end when transferred to serving dish and garnish with coriander leaves. Serve with tortillas or bread. Is there any other recipe for this vegetable, coz I loved how it tasted.
I have never tried chayote, and this is really a shame, because I used to live in Florida where it was easily available all the time at the markets. It's a pale green little squash, not much bigger than your hand, and it's usually smooth-skinned with large folds and puckers that look like a mouth pursed up. It's from the same family as most gourds and squash, as well as cucumbers.
I am familiar with the chayote primarily through Latin American cooking, but it's eaten all over the world. In Asia it may be called Buddha hand melon or squash, and in southern Asia sometimes it's called gurkha.
It's used in curries, like Sirisha's quick one above. It's also eaten raw in salads, boiled, mashed, and fried. It excretes a sticky residue when it's peeled, so recipes sometimes call for gloves.
How do you cook chayote? Do you have a favorite recipe? Here's the recipe for the bright, pretty salad pictured above:

I like it sliced thinly or julienned in a slaw.
I have nightmares about chayotes, thanks to a mother that forced us to eat them as kids!
My loving Grandma peels and boils them, slices them in half add a slice of either chihuahua cheese, queso fresco or panela, covers them in egg batter and deep fries them. Then she serves them in a tomato sauce paired with white rice.
I hate chayotes but the way she makes them is the only way I'll eat them. The real trick though I believe is in the sauce, which is like a marinara, but it has olives in it, who know someday she'll pass the recipe down ;)
I forgot to say she slices them lengthwise and puts the cheese in between as if making a sandwich
I used it in a Mexican beef stew once, and it was delicious! I can't remember where I got the recipe, though! I guess it was maybe used in place of potatoes, but it kept its shape and didn't get all mushy.
I had chayote at a restaurant recently. I think it was steamed and then sauteed.
Don't throw out the chayote seed. It's yummy!
my mom usually slices it until they look like chayote fries, then stir-fries it with fish sauce, little dried shrimp, and sometimes meat. usually sliced fish or shrimp balls. i love it! total asian mom home cooking there.
I've had it cut up in a caldo de pollo (chicken soup) with other big BIG chunks of veggies.
Chayote is essential in any and all soups! The flavor is subtle and it stays crisp if you don't overcook - adds great texture.
They make my hands peel--weird! So, I use summer squash in their place.
Sorry about the 'test' above. I was trying to post earlier and could not do it!
Ok, being Brazilian we eat lots of Chayote. Stew with shrimp is my fav. Also in a mayo salad, together with potatoes, boiled eggs and carrots, all diced.
And about the hands peel (ValHalla)..we need a bowl of water while we are peeling it. Also try to scrub the 2 sides together before peeling it.
My husband puts chayote in green pork stew. I put it in Weight Watchers zero point soup. My auntie steamed them and mashed them with cornbread and shrimp at Christmas for a stuffing. Check out Diana Kennedy's recipe for green pork stew, it a cold weather stew.
People in South Louisiana call them mirlitons, and here's how my mom used to cook them: Boiled whole, peeling on, till quite tender. Halve, scoop out the quite soft flesh, add to a pan where you've been sauteeing "the holy trinity" of seasoning veg (onion, celery, bell pepper), a few chopped scallions, a bit of garlic. Salt, pepper, cayenne (just a little at first), and then -- and then -- seafood, either shrimp or white lump crabmeat. Mix, heat through, then turn into a buttered casserole dish, top with buttered crumbs and bake just until brown on top. Heaven. You'll find a "real" recipe at the Food Network site; search for stuffed mirliton or stuffed chayote.
hmmm... chayotte... aka chuchu in Brazil. My mom makes a lovely souffle with some of that and carrots and regular squash... made like any other veggie souffle, I believe.
Its also sliced thinly and steamed or boiled for about 20 minutes in salty water, then mixed with fresh parsley and thinly sliced onions and seasoned with salt, pepper and lime juice for a refreshing salad. Tastes great with rice and beans.
Plant the whole chayote in the ground - harvest the chayote tendrils and saute it with garlic and oil.
We Taiwanese call these fo shou gua, or Buddha's hand squash. My mom makes an AMAZING dish with the squash cut into chunks peeled and cooked until soft with chunks of codfish. My mom has verbally explained the recipe so many times, but I keep forgetting.
Until I saw one on sale at Whole Foods under the name chayote, I had no idea non-East-Asians ate these! Months later I saw them at a small South Asian market, where they were much cheaper. Now i have to call my mom again...
We are Cuban and my mom would make dessert out of them. She'd cut chayotes in half (lengthwise), gently boil them & scoop out the inside. She'd strain it into a pot, add cornstarch, milk, cinnamon stick, sugar, & egg yolks. When thick she'd lower heat & add vanilla & raisins. Then filled chayote shells with mixture, add sliced almonds, sprinkle with bread crumbs & cinnamon and bake til golden. It's like a vanilla pudding & it's delicious!
Late to the game on this post but my Mom freaked out when she saw them at my local grocery store. (I have never seen her so excited to see a vegetable before.) She promptly bought 5 pounds of them and the next time I saw her she presented me with a jar of chayote pickles. We're Korean and I'm pretty darn sure these aren't native to Korea so I have no idea where she's come across it before or how she knew what to do with it but it did make one darn tasty pickle at least somewhat deserving of her awesome public freak out about running across these vegetables.

WOW ! FUN FUN FUN !!!!!! by Tim on 12/16/2012. Trim: 2013 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited Sport, Owned less than 1 year.
Pros: This Jeep has power ! and its built to last !!
Cons: Gas mileage
Overall review: Best Jeep ever !
Review ID: #567630 Is this review offensive?
Amazing Truck! by Dude from Colorado on 05/25/2013. Trim: 2013 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited Sport, Owned less than 1 year.
Pros: There are far too many pros to mention for this vehicle, so I will discuss the most notable (in my opinion). The new Pentastar V6 and 5-speed automatic are wonderful.... sometimes I forget I'm driving a rough and tough truck (until a corner is mistakenly taken too fast). The interior is fantastic, with the cabin being surprisingly quiet; the freedom edition leather seats and overall styling are amazing. The Alpine sound system is awesome! Ground clearance and off road capability are, of course, unparalleled. This thing is literally unstoppable off road and cruising around with the top off just puts a huge smile on my face! I can't say that about any other vehicles from my past.
Cons: Gas millage isn't great... but that is to be expected when driving a vehicle with 90 degree angles plowing through the air.
Overall review: I purchased the 2013 Wrangler Unlimited Freedom Edition back in April and absolutely love it! This is my first Wrangler and can honestly say I'm nothing short of impressed. The Pentastar V6 and 5-speed automatic work in fantastic harmony. Considering the amazing off road capabilities of this truck, its level of refinement is surprising. As mentioned above, nothing puts a bigger smile on my face than forging through a massive mud hole, climbing insane rock obstacles or simply cruising around the city...topless. To sum it up, life is simply too short not to own a Wrangler. I would recommend this thing to anyone, as it can literally do it all. In other words, its a true SUV.

Unstoppable Rubi by Tom - Rocky Mountains on 04/07/2013. Trim: 2013 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited Rubicon, Owned 1 year.
Pros: Unique styling stands apart from the many cookie-cutter vehicles out there. Easily customizable. Much more power than previous years. Heated seats. Voice control. Touchscreen. Blue tooth. USB connections. Climate control. Dana 44 axles. Electronic swaybar disconnect. Electronic lockers front and rear. Fantastic traction control. Downhill assist (very useful off-roading here in the Rockies). Easy to pull the doors and top off for some added fun. Unstoppable.
Cons: Honestly...none
Overall review: In love with my Unlimited Rubicon with all options. I read a previous review claiming the new Wranglers lacked passing power. With 290 HP (30 more than Toyota FJs) this vehicle surpasses many sports cars in acceleration (especially with Rubi 4:10 gears), so I don't understand where that reviewer was coming from. Heated (and even leather) seats ARE an option, as is voice control, blue tooth, USB direct, auto climate control, touchscreen, 20 gig hard drive, navigation, outside mirror defrost, etc. Having mine for several months now, I haven't experienced a single problem. We've had several snowstorms and it's as if the snow isn't even there. We took it up to the mountains with a group (2 Rubicons, 2 Pickups, and an FJ). The trail was covered with about 2 feet of packed down snow (from snow shoers). The pickups didn't try, the FJ did and slipped and dug in...I have a winch and pulled him out. Everyone piled into the Rubicons and made it to the pond at the end of the trail. Best off-roader

Love it! by Smurfyboy on 01/14/2013. Trim: 2013 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited Sahara, Owned 1 year.
Pros: I have owned two 4 door Sahara Unlimited, a 2009 and a 2012 (altituded trim). The improvements between the '09 and the '12 are incredible. The power improvement is great and the ride seems better too, but that could have to do with seat upgrade (leather) on the Altitude. Dash interior is much better and the tray on top of the dash was a needed addition. Matching removable top is gorgeous along with the more functional larger rear window.
Cons: Yeah, gas mileage is not the greatest, but it's a heavy vehicle. I do a mix of city and highway driving and end up between 16 and 17 MPG. Rear seatbacks are pretty vertical and not adjustable, not very comfortable for passengers along for long trips. Rear door is traditional Jeep, but you have to have the space to open it inside your garage and you have to open it at least 3/4 in order to lift the hatch window.
Overall review: As long as they make 'em, I'll own one. I do a combination of over the road driving in the upper midwest. Never have to wonder if I am gonna get home due to poor weather.. Wrecked the '09, deploying both airbags with an impact at about 35 MPH. Vehicle sustained nearly $14,000 in damage, other vechicle was totalled. Both airbags deployed and my buddy and I walked away without so much as a scratch. After the wreck I drove it back and I was 5 hours from home! This thing took a major hit and in a lesser vehicle, I have no doubt I would have been hospitalized.

LOVE MY JEEP , BUT? by KURT on 12/18/2012. Trim: 2013 Jeep Wrangler Rubicon, Owned less than 1 year.
Pros: love my 4 door(lots of room) and freedom top on my wrangler rubicon, comfortable interior.
Cons: Very disappointed in the passing power with this 6 cyl, this needs to be improved greatly. the rugged look of the jeep is great, but having to have my hinges repainted every other year, not so much. There has to be a solution to the exposed hinges, maybe make them out of another material, metal on metal not the best idea on the outside of a vehical. rubicon if none of the others should really come with heated seats. (it has powered windows, and air, knock knock , HEATED SEATS IS A GREAT IDEA FOR A JEEP WRANGLER!) ps: all vehicles now a days should have controls on the steering wheel.
Overall review: nothing more to add at this time

text: BATTLE CREEK (WKZO) -- Nearly 188-thousand dollars will be given to nine school districts and governments in Calhoun County from the FireKeepers Casino. The money comes from slot-machine and electronic-gaming revenue at the casino, and represents two-percent of what the Nottawaseppi Huron Band of the Potawatomi took in over the past year. Since the casino opened in August 2009, the tribe has paid out nearly 58-million dollars through the FireKeepers Local Revenue Sharing Board.

BRUNSWICK COUNTY, NC (WECT) - A Brunswick County judge refused to continue the cases of dozens of accused drunk drivers, forcing the prosecutor to drop the charges. Not because the defendants were innocent, but because of a procedural technicality.
Late last month, Judge Jerry Jolly refused to continue the cases against 16 defendants arrested by Brunswick County Sheriff's Deputy Brian Medlin. Deputy Medlin had a scheduling conflict, and notified the district attorney's office in advance.
Prosecutors say DWI cases are routinely continued, usually at the defense's request, and they didn't expect any problems when asking for a continuance due to Medlin's scheduling conflict. But in court, Judge Jolly denied their request to continue Medlin's case, and as a result all the cases were dismissed.
"I was very shocked to say the least," said Sheriff John Ingram. "It's something that I haven't seen before"
Then, it happened again. Last Wednesday, Deputy John Rogers had a scheduling conflict because of training.
Prosecutors again requested that Judge Jolly continue Rogers' cases. But Judge Jolly refused, forcing prosecutors to drop the charges against all 20 of the people Rogers arrested who were in court that day, mostly for Driving While Impaired.
"We're dealing with people's lives here," Ingram said about those alleged offenders being put back on the street, putting the public at risk. "It is very disheartening to see the system fail us like it has this time."
Sheriff's deputies spent the day today re-charging all of the defendants whose charges were dropped. DA Jon David says it's the only option they have if they want to get the accused drunk drivers held responsible for their actions.
"There's a considerable amount of time and expense which goes with re-charging somebody," David explained. "You have to get a magistrate to institute charges. A deputy has to go out and find that person and charge them. A clerk has to create a new file. And then they're brought back into the same courtroom, where ironically that charge was just dismissed."
We called Judge Jolly for an explanation but never heard back from him. We do know legislative budget cuts ended Brunswick's County's DWI court program in October. There are now more than 1,000 pending DWI cases in Brunswick and Columbus County swamping the District Court system. Jon David thinks this may have been Judge Jolly's attempt to handle some of that backlog.

There's nothing more exciting than the opening night of a hit Broadway musical, except maybe what happens getting there. While shows like Wicked and The Lion King pack audiences in on the Great White Way, Julia and Tom, a successful songwriting team played by Debra Messing and Christian Borle, begin work on a new musical based on the life of Marilyn Monroe. When a tenacious producer (Anjelica Huston) jumps aboard, so begins the difficult task of casting the silver screen icon.
Ivy Lynn, a tough Broadway veteran, seems like the obvious choice. But enter Karen Cartwright (Katherine McPhee), a young girl from Iowa with a dream of making it on Broadway, who walks in and blows everyone away. So who will get the part and begin a journey that will change their lives? It's an age-old story, but a star just might be born once again.
In the era of The Voice and Glee, executive producers Steven Spielberg and Craig Zadan & Neil Meron (producers of Chicago and Hairspray), and songwriters Marc Shaiman and Scott Wittman (Hairspray), bring you the blood, sweat, and tears that go into the making of a smash hit on Broadway.
Smash returns to WOWT Channel 6 with a special 2-hour season premiere event on Tuesday, February 5th.

P&G cuts prices to save market share
The household products maker is trying to rely less on pricing and more on streamlining its cost structure to recover margins.
The company has lowered its outlook for fiscal 2012, citing continued weakness in developed markets and pricing roll-back, with higher input costs and increased costs related to its massive $10 billion cost-cutting program.
Amid weaker demand and a high cost environment, the consumer giant is trying to rely less on pricing and more on streamlining its cost structure to recover margins, though in the near term this looks to be a challenge. P&G competes with other leading players in the personal care segment, such as Unilever (UL), Kimberly-Clark (KMB) and Colgate Palmolive (CL).
P&G's net sales barely grew by 2% last quarter, despite positive pricing with almost flat volume sales across segments. The volume growth has been depressed over the past few quarters due to slower growth in developed markets and rising prices.
This performance is in contrast with its closest competitor, Unilever, which reported double digit sales growth for Q1. It had strong sales particularly in personal care and home care categories, including a 3.5% organic volume growth, despite continued weakness and depressed consumer spending in developed markets.
P&G's volume decline has likely happened partly because of price increases that came at the expense of its market share in some segments. Volume sales of fast moving consumer goods are highly sensitive to price, and any attempt to recover lost margins through higher pricing may immediately lead to consumers trading down to cheaper alternatives.
Now, P&G is likely to roll back some price hikes in categories such as laundry, home care, oral care and male grooming, especially in the developed markets, apart from introducing new products to expand market share.
The company's gross margin contracted 150 basis points last quarter due to higher commodity costs, restructuring charges, and unfavorable geographic mix. The disproportionate growth in developing regions was partially offset by positive pricing and cost savings. P&G's products in the developing markets have lower-than-segment average selling prices and lower demand for premium-priced products, leading to an adverse product mix and downward pressure on margins.
With no letting up on input costs and limited room for pricing without compromising market share, P&G recently announced a productivity and cost savings plan to reduce spending across all areas by up to $10 billion. As part of this plan, the company expects to incur approximately $3.5 billion before-tax in restructuring costs over the next four years.
These cost cuts will significantly help the company improve its margins, going forward, and reduce its dependence on pricing actions.
We are in the process of revising our $73 Trefis price estimate of P&G's stock.

July 16th 2014 Meeting:
Tricks from the DBA Inbox: Real World Performance Tuning:
In this heavily demo based session, we show some techniques for performance tuning common problems faced by DBA's Including: how to identify the problem, resolve the issue, and test the solution.
Along the way we will also discuss some of theory behind the solutions we all know there is no such thing as DBCC GO_FASTER but this session is the next best thing.
Jason Horner is a Microsoft Certified Master of SQL Server and has been working with SQL Server for over 10 years. He began working with SQL Server as a DBA/Application Developer in 1999, starting with version 6.5. He made the transition to delivering BI solutions in 2002 and began working with spatial data in 2008. His latest focus has been architecting large-scale spatially enabled BI solutions.
Note: The April meeting has been cancelled due to SQL Saturday #297.
Please join us on Saturday, April 12th, for what may be our best SQL Saturday yet!
Location: 1628 West Bijou Street, Colorado Springs, CO 80904
This year we will be having a western theme with games like SQL Rodeo and others with lots of Great Prizes as well as all of our great speakers and sponsors! We are proud to have Microsoft, Dell, and Xtivia as major sponsors. Microsoft's own Kevin Cox will be delivering our keynote as well as presenting!
In conjunction with the event, we are having a food drive to benefit the Westside Cares food pantry, which is located at the facility where the SQL Saturday event will take place. Our goal is simple - to collect so much food and groceries that they literally have to put up additional shelving to hold it all! There will be giveaways tied directly to participation in the food drive - the more you bring, the more chances you will have.
We have a lot of great sponsors who will be supplying us with plenty of SWAG, but for this event, they've really kicked it up a notch! For example, Xtivia has provided one of the coolest prizes we've ever seen for a SQL Saturday - a signed AC/DC guitar complete with certificate of authenticity! Dell computers has also generously supplied us with a Dell Tablet to give away.
Bring at least one item to receive a single ticket for the SWAG drawing. Or, go big and bring one or more grocery bags of items to receive 5 tickets for the SWAG drawing. (Remember to stick around for the closing - you must be present to win!) In the end, this food drive is about giving back to our community. We hope that everyone will open their hearts and help out with a great cause.
To help with the food drive, please feel free to reach out to our Food Drive Organizer, Troy, at email@example.com or our team at firstname.lastname@example.com.
Thank you! We look forward to seeing you there!
We hold meetings on the third Wednesday of every month. Our group meets at the Hyatt Place Garden of the Gods in Colorado Springs.
In an ongoing attempt to make the content presented useful to our members we start each meeting with a short Q&A session. Unless noted in the meeting notes the schedule for each meeting will be:

A Peek Into Sibylle's DIY "Funkytime" Home
House Tour
Name: Sibylle Roessler and family
Location: Montreal, Canada
Size: 680 square feet
Years lived in: 6 months — rented
After posting about Sibylle's incredible dining room transformation in Before & After: Tiny Bedroom Turned Lovely Dining Room back in October 2011 and getting lost on her fabulous DIY and design blog Funkytime, I put two and two together and figured the rest of her home must be just as amazing as what I had already seen. What do you know, I was right!
I contacted Sibylle to see if she would be interested in sharing her home with us, and she very graciously said yes even though she was moving her entire family to Spain just a few days later.
This tour is of their home in Montreal which they recently vacated. They lived in this tiny apartment (680 square feet) for only 6 months, but the creativity and warmth that Sibylle has gotten out of this home is simply inspiring.
The home is a testament to a true DIY'er. You can spend quite a bit of time getting lost in each picture trying to spot all the diy details in every corner: from the vintage pulley chandelier in her dining room, to the drawer jewelry organizer in the bedroom, to the meat grinder turned house planter in the kitchen. Everything has been documented on Funkytime which includes tutorials, before/afters, and lots of well designed freebies. She has a fun and quirky sense of style with creativity bursting at the seams. Enjoy your time in her world, and we may just see her and another of her wonderful homes in the future, just this time with a Spanish twist!
Apartment Therapy Survey:
Our Style: Retro/vintage/industrial/flea market/bohemian.
Biggest Challenge: To move a house full of stuff into a 2 bedroom apartment! We wanted to be in the center of the city so we sacrificed the space we had in the country side. But we knew, we wouldn't live there for long anyway, it was more a temporary solution because ultimately we wanted to go back to Europe.
What Friends Say: Wow! The landlord should pay you for transforming that dump into something so beautiful!
Biggest Embarrassment: The bathroom, it's so tiny I couldn't even take a picture.
Favorite Element:
1. The red retro chair I picked up from the street (unbelievable what people throw away!)
2. The armchair I painted and re-upholstered.
3. The 1941 sewing machine I found in the basement of our old house.
Proudest DIY: My vintage pulley chandelier in our dining room. Our neighbor gave us an old pulley to build a zip line, but I used it instead to make a chandelier. I am also collecting old mason jars, which worked perfect for the chandelier.
Inspiration: Flea markets, Victoria Smith's Bohemian Style, Pinterest's Home Décor Section and Store Windows (I just discovered an awesome pop-up store in Madrid called Madrid in Love which really inspires me!)
Best Advice: Here's the advice I always give: Don't throw anything away; rather, repurpose it (if you have the time!) and go to flea markets and thrift stores to score a good deal! Reinterpreting flea-market finds is not only green, it can also be terribly charming and what's old can be new. Living in a small space forces you to prioritize. Having only what you love, need and use simplifies things, is more economical, and leaves time and money for fun!
Resources of Note:
• Couch Ikea
• Red retro chair found on the curb
• Yellow armchair (which I re-upholstered with fabric from Amy Butler and painted) from Craigslist

• Bed and chandelier are Ikea
• Electric faux fireplace (nightstand) from Osh
• Hanging wall shelf is my design (it's really a drawer from an old nightstand, which I attached to the wall)
• vintage hooks are from flea markets and Anthropology.
• All wall art is my own design. (Faux antlers, painted directly on the wall and added plastic flowers | window frame on the wall is an old window that we accidently smashed when moving in. I attached wires to it and clipped travel photos with clothespins to the wires.)
• Sewing machine found in the basement of our last house, I painted it white.
• Not featured
• Chairs from Target
• Tables from Ikea
• Ceramic Bowls and toolbox from the flea market

still love that dining room
Seems like a fun family! Great light apartment.
Congratulations on the new sit it is looking fab!
I should check the links to my home tour , hope it is still on the site as I loved the post you made.
What an incredible home. So well designed for such a small space!
Oh wow! I loved the dining room when it was first posted, and I'm so happy to see a full house tour. I hope she'll keep updating her blog with whatever they do to their house in Spain. I'm sure it will be fabulous!
Gorgeous! I loved the dining room and wondered when/if there would be a tour of the whole place.
There should be a special category in the Smallest Coolest contest for families who make small spaces work. Living in less than 700 isn't that challenging for an individual or couple -- but how about for a family of four? The degree of difficulty is so much harder and this family made it look efortless. Bravo.
What a delightfully dainty abode! There are elements here that are so interesting to the eyes. Keep up the great work!
All of this looks like a fun time! I hope when I have a family we are all DIY-ers =]
Sibylle, you got 48 amazing photos out of a 680 sq. ft. rental!! And I love how your close-ups show your unique ideas that are beautiful and functional, not just little cute vignettes that people often show. Your ingenuity and flair shine everywhere! Great inspiration-thanks!
very fun!
Beautiful!!! So unique, so fun, so Canadian! Love.
Wow, I am so, so impressed. We've been in our space 3 1/2 years and it doesn't look a fraction as cool. Now I'm inspired!
I get so excited seeing other Montreal families on here :).
I'm back. I'm now hyperventilating over the chandelier, the kitchen, and the balcony. Amazing. All pinned on Pinterest!
Love everything about this home! Can't wait to see where they live now!
It's ok but I don't find it extraordinary or inspiring.
I really like your home. Great storage, displayed but not cluttered. Love the small rack for cells and chargers, your spice rack, the wire baskets, the folding chairs hung on dining wall. Chalkboard fridge is wonderful, brings a good color in to ground the room too, like your use of a touch of black in other rooms. Just the right amount of wood accents to prevent white walls looking sterile. Your beside table/stove is just perfect.
And omg the chandelier! I've been trying to get a friend to part with his pulley, had a similar idea using edidon bulbs.
Enjoyed this tour :)
I agree with MAMACHILANGASF, the Small Cool competition would be better if square footage was per person rather than per dwelling!
This apartment is so lovely... love to see families living well in small spaces. No need for huge houses!
@runswithscissors: please send me a picture when you finished your chandelier!
thanks to all of you for the nice feedback, I'm blushing;-)
I loooove every corner of your home! Great job!
Love the magnetic jars under the shelf idea!
gorgeous apartment. it's a great illustration that just because you have children, doesn't mean you can't keep it clean, crisp and modern.
This is great, I am also a very savvy thrifter/curbside rescuer so it makes me feel great when AT has home tours that didn't cost a fortune to decorate!
I love her blog, lot's of great DIY and her home looks great.
I am also inspired to see a funky, fun family living in a small place. For those of us with kids, the challenge of small apartment living is amplified. I would LOVE to see a special category added to Small Cool, or a special feature.
delightful! effortless, fun and beautiful. i'm dying over that yellow patterned wing back. i think this is my new favorite tour :)
Beautiful and funky, like a DYI ikea catalog. I wish I could get a better idea of how they live in the space as the photos look very staged.
I think of funky as being awkward. Not here! Maybe quirky, though :-). And lots of fun. Thanks for sharing.
Beautiful, warmy and cozy. Congratulation! Looks like a great home.
that kitchen!
I am just in love with the whole house. All the colors!
That chalkboard fridge is just fabulous. I've been wanting to make some surface entirely chalkboard in my house - though I might paint a dresser but then thought that might make the clothes all dusty. The fridge is the perfect choice.
I can't believe you guys have two kids and can keep the house so uncluttered. Very impressive. Love how you have decorated it too. Great home.
So lovely! I especially adore the living room.
At first I was so excited for this house tour because the picture of the kitchen is awesome. But the tour itself is just full of silly "styled" pictures of a bowl on a stack of tea towels, etc. Please show what the room looks like and cut the crap pictures!
I love it!!!! Especially the kitchen.
It's in Quebec City, not Montreal. ;-)

Dividend expert's four favorite ADRs
Dividend reinvestment advisor highlights four favorite ADRS: Novo Nordisk, ARM Holdings, America Movil and China Mobile.
Because of the risks inherent with investing overseas, investors interested in dividend reinvestment programs need to be particular when venturing abroad.
To make it easier for you to identify quality ADRs, I have highlighted some of my favorite ADR investments, including ideas in healthcare, technology and telecom.
Novo Nordisk (NVO), the Denmark-based provider of diabetes treatments, has been a long-time favorite. The stock has been quite rewarding for shareholders, as these shares have risen more than six fold since 2000.
Diabetes is a major global health problem, so demand for Novo Nordisk's products should continue to grow.
The stock is rarely cheap, but these shares usually provide a decent entry point for patient investors. I would have no problem buying the stock now and accumulating more shares on weakness.
One of the more interesting growth stories among the ADRs is ARM Holdings (ARMH), a United Kingdom-based company.
ARM's business model involves the designing and licensing of semiconductor intellectual property (IP) rather than the manufacturing and selling of actual semiconductor chips.
The firm licenses IP to a network of companies that utilize ARM designs to create and manufacture system-on-chip designs, paying ARM a license fee for the original IP and a royalty on every chip or wafer produced.
Over 15 billion ARM-based chips have been shipped to date. ARM technology is used in more than 95% of the world's mobile handsets and over one-quarter of all electronic devices.
Profits have been rising for the firm. Per-share profits should jump around 16% in 2011 and more than 20% in 2012.
These shares have been a favorite of technology investors, which is evident from the stock's lofty P-E ratio of 52 times 2011 earnings estimate.
Thus, the stock is vulnerable to a downturn in the overall market and the tech sector in particular.
Still, the company has its tentacles into some of the most exciting growth markets in the tech sector and represents an intriguing play for more aggressive investors looking for foreign tech exposure.
The telecom sector represents an interesting area for overseas investment. Two attractive stocks are America Movil (AMX) and China Mobile (CHL).
America Movil, based in Mexico, is a leading provider of wireless services in Latin America. The firm is broadening its business with the acquisition of the remaining 40% interest it does not already own in Telefonos de Mexico, a wireline provider of telecom services.
China Mobile, with 627 million customers, is the world's largest provider of mobile telecom services.
Both firms should experience above-average growth. Both also offer nice cash flow in the way of dividends. China Mobile's yield of 4% is especially attractive.
Dividend investors who are looking to diversify a dividend portfolio with foreign investments should consider these stocks.

How to make bronzer your friend
Step 1 Sweep bronzer around your face
Bing: Blush brush
Step 1
Swirl a blush-size brush in the bronzer and sweep it around the perimeter of your face: Go from directly below each ear to your jaw, then around the top from temple to temple. I know it sounds nuts to focus on the outside of your face, but it's key to making the color look like the real deal.
Step 2 Dust bronzer on cheekbones, nose & chin
Bing: Powder bronzer
Step 2
Gently dust the bronzer on your cheekbones, nose, and chin. Be sure to tap off any excess color from the brush before you start—you should use a really light hand here.
Step 3 Swirl pink blush
Bing: Pink blush
Step 3
Swirl a pink blush on the apples of your cheeks. This mimics the sun-kissed effect you'd get had you actually been on the beach all day, and it's essential to making the bronzer look believable—so don't skip it!
Final look: Overall warmth
Bing: Highlighter
Final look
The finished effect shouldn't be dramatically darker—you just want a nice overall warmth to your skin.
Tip: For extra credit, add a little highlighter to the tops of your cheekbones. Don't own one? Use any pale champagne eyeshadow.

The first signs of construction of a new Tappan Zee Bridge are likely to become visible next month, when the design-build team begins making test borings in the Hudson River.
At the same time, the team, Tappan Zee Constructors, will start outfitting construction staging areas beneath the existing bridge and along the New York State Thruway on state-owned property.
By June, the team will be installing test pilings north of the old bridge, along the route of the new one, and by Aug. 1, it will be dredging the river bottom, a process limited to a three-month window every year to protect the spawning of two endangered species of sturgeon.
Tappan Zee Constuctors, the consortium that won the $3.1 billion contract to design and build the new Tappan Zee Bridge, will be seeking workers, materials and services during the next two months.
The consortium's new website, tappanzeeconstructors.com, provides details about how people and companies can apply for jobs and contracts as well as what kinds of support is being sought.
The consortium is also planning a series of opportunity fairs in Westchester and Rockland counties. Fairs for disadvantaged, minority, female-owned and small businesses will be held Feb. 14 and Feb. 15. Job fairs for individuals will be held March 6 and March 7 and business-to-business fairs, April 23 and April 24.
Times and places for the fairs have yet to be set, but will be posted on the website as soon as they are.
But from this modest beginning, Tappan Zee Constructors promises to open the north span of the new, two-span bridge in 2016 and move traffic to it in preparation for demolishing the old bridge. Construction of the south span will then be completed in 2018. The sequencing facilitates the new bridge's use of the same landings onshore as the old one, despite it being twice as wide.
Thomas Madison, the Thruway Authority's executive director, and Brian Conybeare, Gov. Andrew Cuomo's special project adviser, outlined the still-rough construction timetable for the public Monday in Tarrytown Monday and Tuesday in Nyack.
The men also introduced representatives of Tappan Zee Constructors, the consortium that won the coveted design-build contract with a bid that, at $3.1 billion, was almost $1 billion lower than those of its two competitors.
"Our team is ready," said Walter Reichert, vice president of Tappan Zee Constructors and the project manager, in describing the team's efforts during the past year to devise the best and most economical bridge possible.
He and four other representatives described themselves repeatedly as "excited" about this "once in a lifetime opportunity." The consortium is composed of Fluor Enterprises, Granite Construction Northeast, American Bridge and Traylor Brothers.
Reichert said construction will begin on both three-mile long spans at the same time, starting in the middle of the river and working toward the shores. He predicted any disruption to traffic in the corridor would be "negligible," in part because materials and workers will be transported by boat.
Toward that end, Tappan Zee Constructors will utilize a mammoth floating crane with a 328-foot boom to install prefabricated sections of the new bridge — and dismantle the old one — from the river. Fluor and American Bridge used the crane, known as the "Left Coast Lifter," in their work on the San Francisco-Oakland Bay Bridge. That crane is en route to New York now.

GREEN BAY, WI (LEARFIELD-WSAU) Green Bay Packers' tight end Jermichael Finley wondered if God was punishing him during the first moments after his devastating neck injury 10 days ago. Finley gave an account of his ordeal in Sports Illustrated's "Monday Morning Quarterback."
His neck was jarred by a shoulder from Cleveland defender Tashaun Gipson, as Finley fell to the Lambeau Field turf for six minutes before being removed a stretcher. He spent parts of five days in a hospital with a bruised spinal cord.
The hit came while he was running after a catch. He said it unfolded very quickly. Finley said he saw Gipson from a corner of his eye, and he lowered his head and shoulders to protect his knees. He said he remained conscious but could not move. Finley said the scariest thing was seeing fear in the eyes of teammate Andrew Quarless as he stood nearby. That told him something was really wrong.
As he was being hauled off, Finley wanted to show the fans he was okay by giving a thumbs-up - but his arm couldn't move after it went up halfway. Finley wants to play again, but he's not sure if it will happen this season.
If he never plays again, he said he has a 10-million insurance policy that will help his family be financially-secure for life. The 5-and-2 Packers are getting ready to play Chicago on Monday night.

I'll admit it.
I'm a snob!
It is no big secret amongst my friends and family that I am not a huge fan of Wally World. I only go in that store when I absolutely have to because . . . well . . . the lights in there just mess with my eyes, it's always far too busy and I inevitably end up purchasing more than I originally enter said store for.
Our family optician recently joined the practice that is inside one of the local Walmarts in our town so I now have to frequent it more than ever.
Yesterday, I had to stop in to pick up my oldest son's contact lenses and make a quickie return with all three boys in tow.
So, it was pouring down when I arrived at said Walmart, but we all darted in managing not to get too wet. I was forced to visit the little man who stands guard by the door just waiting to use his machine to affix a return sticker. Today, his machine was not working and as he tried to figure it out, my littlest one started squirming and whining in the shopping cart. I tried to sigh loudly yet politely to give this man the cue that he needed to hurry it on up unless he wanted to see a full blown toddler meltdown before his very eyes. His associate sauntered on over and rescued me so I was able to get that shopping cart moving and my little one pacified.
We headed straight on over to pick up the contact lenses which was done effortlessly, unless you call telling my middle son a few million times to please not touch the glasses or the glass cases or any thing else in there. He still came bounding over to present me with eye glass cleaner which he decided I needed to purchase. I told him to put it back at which time, he grabbed his crotch and told me he needed the bathroom. Great! No big deal though. His big brother took him in to the gents with instructions to stick together no matter what while I headed to returns which was just next door to the bathrooms.
The line at customer service was horrendous and to be quite honest, I couldn't be arsed with it all, so as soon as the older boys got out of the loo, I told them it was time to hit the road. Reminded that we needed batteries and seeing that it was still raining, I reluctantly headed in to the back of the store for said item. We grabbed them and I thought to myself, let's see what they have here in the way of uniform shorts. So, we all trudged to the other end of the store to look in the boys' section and found 4 pairs of my middle son's size and I stuck those in the shopping cart to purchase. Now, by this time the little munchkin was fit to be tied. He had had enough and wanted out. Now! And, being the ever adventurous mother I thought what the hell. Let's give him a run around and let me get a work out at the same time!
And, boy was that fun! For about FIVE minutes! Then it got really old and I wanted him back in that shopping cart!
We headed to the check outs where I usually opt for the easier self check out aisle, but I realised with horror as I looked at the huge lines of people with mammoth sized mounds of shopping that I was in the one blooming Walmart that didn't have them! Aargh, the look of frenzy must have been written all over my face as I tried to corral the older kids and placate my little one with a granola bar because it was dinner time ye know. I was actually cursing the place and muttering under my breath that this would never be the scene if I were in my beloved Tarjay when a kindly older woman came over to me and asked if I wanted to go ahead of her.
I was floored with her generosity. She had about the same amount of items in her shopping cart as I and with one person ahead of her, I am sure she was just as anxious to get out of there as I was. She confided to me that she had had 7 kids and knew what it was like to have to take them all shopping! Our eyes locked and I knew that she got me! And, I only had three! By this time, the two older boys were begging me for some newly gross flavour of chewing gum and the little one was doing his best to arch his back so he could escape from the vice grip I had on him.
Not one to argue, I thanked her for her kindness, made my boys do the same and pushed ahead of her. Then, as the shopper ahead of us was taking longer than could feasibly be possible, this dear old lady asked my boys if they wanted to see a magic trick. Intrigued, we said YES! And, she did just that! Showed them a couple of different tricks which my boys just ate up! And, before we knew it, we were all checked out and ready to go. I turned around to tell her thank you one more time, but she was already engaged in conversation with the check out guy and then I could tell that she was just one of those souls who seem to touch other people with their kindness wherever they are.
If only the world were made up of more like her . . . it would be a much better place. Yesterday also taught me a little lesson in humility. Wally world ain't such a bad place. So, thank you dear stranger for your kindness. I will try and do the same in return next time I'm out and see a fellow frazzled momma in the check out line and I hope you', dear reader, will do the same!

|XML-Java Data Binding Using XMLBeans
|Why ?
|2004-07-30 13:22:30
There is already a JAXB that does the java xml
binding? What does this offer that is needed ?
Showing messages 1 through 3 of 3.
Why ?
2004-08-04 09:36:36 myshkin5 [View]
We use JAXB on my current project and I can say that XMLBeans offers much that we desire:
1. Namespace/package/inner class support. JAXB forces you to put all of your XSDs in one directory and all of the resulting Java code is in one package. JAXB also makes no use of inner classes so if you have element buried down in a schema called 'item' you now have a plain top level class called Item. In our medium sized project, our generated code directory has 352 .java files. JAXB is simply unmanagable in a large project.
2. Near 100% XML Schema support. Many nice little tricks in an XSD don't translate to Java code in JAXB.
Disclaimer: I haven't used XMLBeans. I'm sure it has it's warts too.
Why ?
2004-08-04 16:04:18 Hetal [View]
Some of the significant features of XMLBeans are:
XMLBeans is based on an efficient XML token stream, and it keeps underlying XML infoset intact. Since XMLBeans keeps the data in memory as XML, overhead of unmarshalling and marshalling is reduced.
To address varying data access and data transformation requirements, XMLBeans provides a flexibility of navigating through xml data using xPath or xQuery, and manipulating xml data using either xml cursor or XMLBeans generated classes.
In JAXB 1.0 , group binding style does not follow node correspondence. so developer has to be aware of group binding node that does not correspond to any node in xml instance data.
XMLBeans offers performance benefits (mentioned in article), flexibility in navigating through xml data, and provision for executing xpath queries against xml instance data.
-Hetal Shah.
Why ?
2004-09-25 15:09:26 Deepak Vohra | [View]
Some of the advantages of XMLBeans over JAXB are the provision to parse an XML document and support for all of the XML Schema constructs; the JAXB generated classes do not have a parse method to parse an XML document and JAXB does not support all the Schema constructs.
