I really want to play the video game that would do justice to Tokyo Run, an awesome short film / music video by woob – the creator of the classic em:t 1194. The video features awesome time-lapse photography, sweet high-def lo-fi futuristic-retro graphics, all perfectly cut to a great woob track.
In a way the film is a game on its own: buried within the film are clues to finding a bonus track hidden somewhere on the internet!
There are roughly the same number of molecules in a litre of water as there are stars in the observable universe – 100,000,000,000,000,000,000,000 give or take a zero or two. For me this makes the universe seem tiny – and molecules even tinier! A whole universe of stars, in one carton of milk.
I'm not sure what this says about my new puzzle game, Puzzle Poker.
There are 15,511,210,043,330,985,984,000,000 different ways to arrange the cards in a single puzzle. Of those, there are 538,583,682,060,103,680,000 arrangements with potentially different scores. These are universe-sized numbers. Even with a super-computer, checking all combinations of a single puzzle would take millions of years!
This enormous combination space makes for an excellent logic puzzle. It can't be solved by trying all combinations – you need to explore and think – use logic and reason to prune back the search space – infer where the solution must lie.
I think it's a great little puzzle that should appeal to all kinds of puzzle addicts, poker players and especially Sudoku fans. Puzzle Poker will soon be available for iPad, iPhone and iPod Touch. Keep your eye out for the launch!
I'm currently trying to do too many different things at once, so everything is taking a lot longer than I expected to complete… even so, I have almost finished work on a minor update for Instrumental. So far this includes:

The kind folks at IK Multimedia have just sent me a new iRIG MIDI to try with Instrumental. It is a hardware MIDI interface that plugs directly into the dock connector.
To use it: plug it in, select the iRIG MIDI from Instrument's destination list, and you're away. Easy as that.
You can use the IRIG MIDI to connect to hardware synths, or even directly to a computer's MIDI ports.
If you are using Instrumental in a performance situation, I would recommend using wired MIDI instead of Wi-FI, so that there is no chance of radio interference causing latency in the middle of your performance!
The iRIG MIDI includes a micro-USB port so you can keep your iPad powered while also using wired MIDI. This is not possible when you're using the iPad Camera Connection Kit and a standard USB MIDI Adapter.

Communicating with Decision Makers on Campus
One of the biggest frustrations about being a student activist is that you're unschooled in the ladder of power. Going to talk about an issue with a favorite professor or the university president may be easy or symbolic, but it's not necessarily helpful. Ask yourself: who makes decisions? How can they be contacted? And how can you influence them positively? While your first task is to figure out who has power in a particular issue, moving from that to constructively working with them is sometimes difficult.
Talking to Men In Ties narrates one individual's experience trying to find information and change policies at Earlham College. Although this is a case study, and therefore unique, his frustrations and successes yield some instructive lessons. This was originally found at Campusactivism.org (http://www.campusactivism.org/displayresource-253.htm).
Another resource for reaching decision-makers is "How Decisions are Made In School" from the SoundOut website (http://www.soundout.org/howdecisions.html). While this is aimed specifically at high school students, it's a great way to start thinking about the way authority is divided within the educational environment. The site also includes a helpful list of tips for student-authority interactions, which can facilitate communication and jumpstart dialogue (http://www.soundout.org/studentadultpartnerships.html).
Don't forget that a school's trustees also have great influence on a school's activities; beyond their direct powers to approve or disapprove of school leadership, their significant financial contributions grant them some power over school policy. This article from the Boston Globe (http://www.boston.com/news/nation/articles/2007/08/13/students_switching_activism_to_boardroom/) details ways student activists are working with trustees to change their schools.

Bubba Watson caused quite the stir when he released this YouTube video depicting himself maneuvering over water hazards and through sand traps via a hovercraft/golf cart hybrid straight out of the most boring science-fiction story imaginable. (Seriously, it's 2013 and all we have are freaking hovercraftsfor golfing? If we don't have jet-packs and/or light-sabers by 2014, I'm starting a movement to impeach Obama.) Especially impressed was Pete Duffey, managing director of Windy Knoll Golf Club in Springfield, Ohio, who decided to order two of the hovercrafts after watching the video.
Duffey explained his reasoning to the media on Tuesday:
We're always looking for a way to set ourselves apart from the competition. We'll be able to offer something that no one in the area, in the state and at this point in the country can offer.
A normal weekend round at Windy Knoll currently costs $40, but a round where patrons choose to use the hovercrafts will run around $230.
Duffey said that golfers will be allowed to drive the craft onto the lake, although the putting greens and bunkers will be off-limits for now. The first hovercraft is scheduled to arrive on July 18th, with the second arriving the following week.

"Any idiot can face a crisis; it is this day-to-day living that wears you out." -Anton Chekhov
I'm not sure how I feel about unions on a whole. I understand what's going on in WI is atrocious and that governor is simply awful. I'd be scared to death of what he'd tried to pull next if he did get rid of their right to collective bargaining.
My issues with unions is that the big ones in NY seem to ignore how awful our economy is. They're not willing to make amends on any level. Hate it or not, we've all paid more toward our retirement and health insurance, and most of us have done so without a raise. It's hard for me to feel sympathy in that area. My take-home is less than it was a month ago, and Rich has lost nearly 10,000/year in OT. Everyone is doing with less and I feel the teachers should at least hold their salary where it is, not expect more. Not now. I know that the case in WI is different though...those teachers and their unions have already made concessions.
And personally, I paid 40-some bi-weekly for 4.5 years when I was a civil servant, just to end up laid off and training an non-union employee to do my job. Kinda made me feel like I deserved a refund!

Yeah I admit that I'm biased...my dad was a union man and I have very strong left leanings and would vote socialist if that was a viable party here.
I get that everyone has paid more (we lost some benefits at work too...and my DH at one point had his hours cut and his pay reduced 5%)....and the union in this case is agreeing to that. But weasal won't even talk to them...it's all or nothing and he wants the workers to have zero rights. Ugg I dislike him so much and it goes back to when he was county exec for Milwaukee and the horrible job he did there. (I spent most of my adult life living in Milwaukee and all DH's family is still there pretty much). We all hate him.
It's a shame that we can't trust companies to treat employees fairly....used to be back in the "good ole days" as so much of the right wants to "take back to"....a CEO made more, maybe 30 times more than average employees. Today they make more like 300 times more...and even in this economy some businesses are making record profits but not passing any of that down.
So when I see people being attacked (because we all know that teachers have such easy gravy jobs....and really i have heard supports on the right saying that!)....that are middle class and make 30-40K a year......and the super rich getting tax breaks...DISGUSTING.

Is that Mexico? How great to be going someplace warm! I'm too scared to go to Mexico myself but would love a tropical vacation. Snorkling sounds like so much fun. Sadly my DH isn't really much of a swimmer at all and that is not his idea of a vacation. We don't vacation every year, more like every couple of years and we already did Disney in FL and Vegas. So I asked where he wanted to start thinking about going for our next one...his reply was Washington DC. I like museums but he's so into history (always watching history channel or military channel) that I know he's going to want to try to see everything and read every placard next to every display.
I dream of going to Mexico by myself!
I would like to go to a lot of places by myself though since not many people I know IRL like things that I like, or they are not the type of people that I would want to vacation with. DH is alright but he has a tendency to go over the top mad, upset, attitudnal (if that is a word) whenever something doesn't go his way or he has a disagreement with anyone. Plus he likes to drink more than I like to drink and usually when we go on vacation I get stuck at least one day nursing him back from a hangover.
I am actually planning a mini vacation to SC of all places to do some genealogical research, which I'm sure no one will want to do with me, besides my aunt who lives here, but she has been a major focus of my irk-dom lately and I don't know if I want to deal with her on what I want to be an enjoyable trip.
I have been reading some things about your fight in WI lately and your governor does seem like a piece of work. I enjoy a good "stand for what you believe in" protest and am excited about the passions of people. I feel that a large part of our society are too content and uninvolved in the political process (including myself recently) and it is always inspiring to see people stand for what they believe in. I hope your governor actually learns how to govern for all the people and not just his own party. These types of situations are the main reason why I don't participate exclusively with any party. It seems like a lot of time, they are too unwilling to compromise even for the greater good just because of ideological differences or bull headedness.
That said, I do see both sides of the union issue. I think this governer is going about trying to make changes in totally the wrong way. Things like this need to be gradual or everyone gets scared. And I don't blame them for being scared.
There is this free publication in my county called Inspire that features women in our area. The editor emailed me yesterday to see if she could interview me for there feature on holistic/organic living. She heard about my daycare and wants to talk to me about the benefits of this lifestyle.
She's coming over thursday and OMG I'm so nervous. I mean, who knows. She may just use one quote from me but I want to say the right thing. I hope I'm able to be eloquent.
Bridget you'll be great.
Why would anyone be afraid to travel alone? It's glorious. I traveled around the world mostly by myself in my 20s, and have traveled extensively in the u.s. alone. As long as you're not stupid, it's fine.
Oh how I long to travel alone now that I have my constant little companions...
I'm sitting in the docs office waiting to have an iud installed. The end of an era. Sigh.
I wouldn't travel to certain places even with others! And I wouldn't travel in the US alone....course I have been with DH since I was 19....so trips before him were with my family and after were with him (and sometimes my family...often my sister comes with us and the Disneyworld trip my MIL and her husband came with too).
I am not one who likes to be alone much....and I don't see the point of travel without someone to share the experience with. And of course to stop me from getting lost! LOL It was driving from WI to FL with my DH and sister that they decided I could not be the map reader anymore after I caused about a 45 minute detour. LOL
I don't have a lot of common sense or a good sense of direction, so I'd never travel alone!
Good luck, Bridget; sounds like it should be a good interview.
A Battle Star Gallactica question for y'all; I'm now on episode 4, I think. Am I supposed to know which of the Boomers is a cyclon (the one on the planet or on the ship?) and what's with the doctor's hallucinations of the blonde lady?
Jennifer, you should look at a vacation to Arizona some time. That entire state has something to offer, and talk about history! omg, do they ever have it! Plus, it's warm there.
I haven't traveled more than 5-6 hours by myself because I've had kids since I was 17. But I've taken them on vacations by myself. From upstate NY to SC and then to Arizona. I'm not afraid to travel alone and I probably will after the kids are gone because I always have far more vacation time than Rich, and I'm not sitting around the house just because he doesn't have the time to go.
Course it will be a while before we will have the money or vacation time for a vacation....the little time we have now we use to visit with family. And really we have to use up almost a week each just to take the adoption classes.....and of course that is where all the money is going.
but yeah DC and NYC are at the top of his lists....I wouldn't mind going someplace like Vermont or Montreal. And we plan on doing Disney again but not until our kid is old enough to remember the trip and actually tall enough for the majority of the rides. I think that will be one where we rent a house again, like a 5-6 bedroom with a pool and take my MIL, my parents, my sister and if she has anyone at that point.
Wow, I can't imagine going on a vacation without DH. He's pretty sensitive and his feelings would be so hurt if I was off on vacation without him. We are just not used to not being together....when dating it was basically us together unless we were in class or at work. Same thing now...usually together unless at work...and sometimes I go shopping and leave him at home. I think that we are probably almost too dependent on each other.
Ah, ok. I kept wondering if I had missed something!
And i'd forgotten that I have travelled alone before. Once to Michigan and back to Arkansas by bus for a family wedding and the first time I flew to England was on my own.

Katycat, I don't have a sweet tooth, but I have a problem with cheese--what I do is buy the really reduced fat (75%) and eat that. It's weird at first but I got used to it. Maybe you can find a sugar free gum or some kind of hard candy to suck on? I know desserts are ridiculously high in calories. I tend to sabotage myself too. I'm good for a couple days and then I binge on something really bad.
You guys were busy while I was gone! We had a busy day-first to the children's museum, then out for lunch, then to a showing of Despicable Me at our library. Then I took him to his music class-he was better this week and the teacher was fine with him being there. She said it wasn't disruptive and that I could take him out of the room for a couple minute intervals if needed.
Then we went to the grocery store where I found out the bank put a hold on my card for suspicious activity, turned out to be nothing. I didn't want to go back to the grocery store so I picked up what I could at Target, which was a challenge because they are renovating. They are going to have fresh produce soon. Should be interesting.

I've been on a couple of vacations without DH since we've been together. Once to France with my family and once just driving around the West - Colorado, Wyoming, South Dakota, etc. on this trip my aunt and uncle dreamed up. We had a blast and I wasn't going to miss out because DH couldn't or wouldn't take off work. But since we got married, either we were about to buy/had just bought a house, or we were totally broke from his job situation. So not a lot of vacations. We're hoping to go somewhere nice together after he gets home, but we'll see. Depends on whether we are planning to move and how much we need to spend getting the house in shape to rent out.

I'm definitely going to AZ again. Although when, I don't know. Maybe we'll get to take a nice week long vaca next year. I have no hope for it this year...hoping we'll be buying a house ourselves.
Kate, I'm glad to hear you've had such a great day with Josh! It's hit or miss with Conner too. Today was Jesi's first appointment and when it was over I went to pick Conner up. I thought he'd be happy and excited...getting out of g'mas early and seeing Mommy and all that. Instead he was a stinker and demanded I buy him a dinosaur. Well, I don't ever give in to demands so he had a mini-meltdown in the car. I finally told him if he kept it up he wouldn't be on the computer at all tonight, so he stopped. I'm only lucky that threatening him with loss of computer privileges worked...usually if he gets it in his head to have a fit, nothing stops him.
Sorry to make it all about me and Conner...I just think he's so much like Josh and maybe it'll help knowing you're not alone. I don't post about the downsides much because it no longer gets to me like it did when the girls were little.
When we went, we crossed the state. We started in Phoenix and drove to Tombstone. We stopped on our way at a cave outside to Tuscon (maybe a couple hours? I can't remember). Then we headed back to Phoenix for 1 night and continued on to the Grand Canyon the next day. We stayed on Route 66 in Williams, AZ and Shannon took us through Sedona and Jerome. omg---talk about breathtaking! Any one of those places I could stay a week in. I loved Flagstaff and really think we could live there.
I really can't say enough about AZ. Easily my favorite place to visit.
My brother and I used to fly by ourselves as very small children. Like I can't believe that we were so young. Divorce. I remember when I was 7 and I flew to visit my Dad and after landing I waited and waited in the gate area until an employee finally noticed I had been sitting there for at least an hour and took me to an office area, gave me a coke and called my dad. I hope she made him feel terrible. He had forgotten I was coming that day or some nonsense. I can't imagine not paying attention to that kind of thing. He used to forget me all the time and I would have to sit and wait until it was past dinner time and he would finally notice that I wasn't there.

This is a tasty dish but next time I will use less onion (it was really overpowered by the onion flavor) and more soyrizo.
Paella with Soy Chorizo and Edamame
No Longer Registered Posted: 03/19/11
alisaG Posted: 03/28/11
I liked the combination of flavors but to be fair I did quite a bit of subbing. I had leftover soy chorizo and found this recipe to be pretty straightforward, so I followed it loosely. Used 3.5 of chrorizo (all I had) and halved the rest of the ingredient amounts except for garlic (4 cloves -- I like garlic) and onion (half of a medium onion --thank you previous reviewer for mentioning the onion part). I used leftover lima beans and frozen peppers and since I didn't have saffron, I just kicked up the flavor with cayenne. I know it's not the same but hey, saffron is expensive! I had a little bit of Arborio rice and no wine so just more vegetable stock and it worked out well! Don't forget the parsley and green onion, definitely make the dish.
julicoo09 Posted: 04/20/11
I was excited to make this as I usually like a lot of Cooking Light's vegetarian recipes, but this one just seemed off. The flavor was strange and just didn't seem to go with the other flavors in the dish. Will not be making this again.
bellymama Posted: 04/11/11
I followed the recipe except omitted the green onions. I was surpised by how good the soyrizo was. I had never tried it before. We'll make this again for a quick weeknight supper.
chezcayenne Posted: 06/26/11
I make something almost exactly like this, but I use about 1/2 the onion and only 1/2 cup edamame and add artichokes, paprika and thyme. I've been making it for years and it's on my blog, Chez Cayenne.

Since the penis (and, therefore, sperm) does not enter the vagina, pregnancy cannot occur. Abstinence may also call for staying away from any sexual activity that leads to an exchange of body fluids including genital to genital rubbing and other sexual contact such as oral or anal sex. Particularly if you are concerned about the spread of sexually transmitted infections (STIs).
Moderately to highly effective depending on use. Abstinence can be 100% effective if you're true to the method. But remember that sperm can still find its way into the vagina if ejaculation takes place close to the entrance of the vagina. It's also a good idea to have a barrier method handy just in case your willpower fails!

Useful Icons When Shopping for Vegan Shoes.
I would die for these vegan boots from MooShoes, but I don't have the income to provide such lovely, cruelty-free covers for my feet. Without being too depressed over it, I have discovered that there are vegan-friendly shoes out there that are easily accessible and reasonably priced. For instance, I personally have had luck at major retailers such as: Target, Payless, and H&M.
Yes, there really are shoes out there for us in the real-world, but they are not clearly labeled as "VEGAN,"so you have to do a bit of detective work to make sure. First, look behind the tongue or inside the shoe. If it states "ALL manmade materials" then you are safe… No dead animals here! Otherwise, it may say: "genuine leather", "leather upper", or "cow's leather." If that is the case, put the shoe back and realize how ugly it is.
If there is nothing inside the shoe, look on the bottom. You may see some hieroglyphics that nobody has ever explained to you… until now. There is one symbol that is a definite no-go and two that are quite visually pleasing.
The bottom of the shoe will symbols that indicate the materials of:
- the shoes' upper
- the inner lining
- the shoes' sole
If all three indicate either the diamond & crosshatch icons, you have found yourself a pair of conscious and kind shoes! Buy them and tell everyone that complements your choices in footwear that they are vegan friendly & they kick-ass!

Ubuntu revisited »
I loved Ubuntu. Despite its ridiculous name and the fact that it's also a YOGA STUDIO, it was one of my favorite restaurants. If I'm not making fun of a restaurant for also being a YOGA STUDIO then I'm either A) dead or B) eating at Ubuntu. I loved, loved, loved it. I was so psyched about this Yogaraunt that I'd take diehard omnis to show them how great "vegetable cuisine" is. And uh, I did just that on Saturday night. What a fucking disappointment. You better hide your kids, hide your wife, and hide your husband cause Ubuntu is raping everybody out here!
First off, the entire menu has changed. Gone are the chickpea fries, the pizzas, the amazing signature salads. They've been replaced with a dry salad (seriously, no dressing), $17 plates of four small potatoes covered in cucumber ash (see pic above: those aren't giant turds, they're a signature dish at New Ubuntu), and a soup that was basically vinegar poured over three melon balls (just like when Yoko Ono orders a single plum floating in perfume served in a man's hat on The Simpsons! But less funny because THIS IS REALLY HAPPENING). It's like the whole restaurant has gone anorexic on us. I am not even playing, it was straight fucked. I was so embarrassed. The omnis were like WTF IS THIS VEGAN GARBAGE and I was like WTF IS THIS VEGAN GARBAGE and the whole scene was just humiliating. I get it, Jeremy Fox has left for meatier pastures and the new chef wants to make the menu his own and I'm ALL for that, but why take away heartier fare and replace it with less food for more money? I'm sorry, when I'm paying $50 a person (without wine!) to eat at your restaurant, I don't want the most filling item to be the free bread. We ate so much bread that they had to dedicate an oven to baking exclusively for my table. AND WE WERE STILL HUNGRY. Honestly, I wanted to head down the street to Billco's Billiards & Darts for some french fries and a veggie dog.
I am all for new chefs and new visions, and I'd be fine with an entirely new menu that doesn't have my favorite strawberry pizza or my beloved cucumber watermelon basil soup but dammit, make the replacements stellar and hearty, or lower your prices. You can't have it both ways because you're gonna lose customers. After (constructively?) talking trash on Ubuntu to several groups of friends, I found out that they too had had shitty dining experiences there recently and felt equally bummed and pissed. I dunno, I am loathe to run my mouth on a vegetarian restaurant, but I had to say something because it's festering inside of me, eating my food-loving soul, and no amount of namastes can help. Run an' tell that, homeboy.

The following statement is absolute nonsense: "He had a four-octave vocal range and his father's was five and a half..." Ridiculous and impossible. Go to a piano and play the lowest "C," (three half steps from the bottom of the keyboard), and far lower than any western singer can phonate, then catapult up the scale "five and a half" octaves to the high "G" sung by the Queen of the Night in Mozart's "The Magic Flute." Then, please, reference just one song in which a folk-rocker, no less, comes close to such a vocal range. Why are such absurdities so often cited, as if true, by pop music reviewers? Do you know what an octave is? One wonders.

A few weeks back, we gave you a taste of Gran Turismo's First Love video series. It chronicled the efforts to rebuild a 1948 Hudson, just like the first race car of Mario Andretti. That piece was seriously cool and entertaining, but this latest video is even better.
This is the reunion of Andretti and the Hudson, with the car being as close to Andretti's original steed as possible. It wears the red paint, white racing stripes and chain to hold the driver's door closed, while a number of other details are enough to stir memories in the old racer. Naturally, Andretti needed to take the old beast out for a spin on a dirt track.
Of course, there is some marketing stuff to get through before moving to the sentimental part. Polyphony Digital's GT team details its process of recording cars like the Hudson that will end up being rendered in the game. Each vehicle is subject to photos from nearly every angle, and is then three-dimensionally scanned. As we mentioned in our last piece about this series, gamers will be able to drive Andretti's Hudson in Gran Turismo 6. Take a look below to watch the entire video, it's worth it.

After months of attempting to stave off layoffs by reducing employee hours and implementing wage cuts, Duncan Aviation has been forced to lay off employees for the first time in the company's 53-year history. The reduction affects 304 positions– 170 at the Lincoln, Neb. facility; 122 at Battle Creek and Kalamazoo, Mich.; and 12 in the company's network of smaller satellite avionics and engine locations throughout the U.S.
The Helicopter Association International's annual Heli-Expo kicked off this morning amid a wave of negative signs all pointing to a prolonged economic downturn. Against such a backdrop, it's a little disorienting to step foot inside the Heli-Expo exhibition hall at the Anaheim Convention Center in Southern California and find it packed with exhibitors and visitors.
From Friday, February 1 through the morning of Super Bowl Sunday two days later, Retha Slade, customer service manager for General Aviation Corp. at Louis Armstrong New Orleans International Airport (MSY), placed Mardi Gras beads around the necks of unsuspecting flight crews and customers as they entered the company's newly completed FBO on the north end of the field.
Before Big Eight basketball teams began competing in the newly formed Big 12 Conference in 1994, their longest league road trip was about 600 mi. And among the former Southwest Conference schools that now comprise the league's southern division, it was only 400 mi to the farthest conference venue. Today, travel to play Big 12 games can range as much as 900 mi, and inter-conference contests may take cagers to both coasts, Hawaii and Alaska.
It may not be the closest FBO to next year's Super Bowl in Houston, but it might be the most fun. Wing Aviation at Lone Star Executive Airport (CXO) in Conroe, Texas, is planning a bash that should rival the action on the field at the Houston Astrodome, some 45 miles away.
In an effort to protect National Football League Super Bowl XLII patrons and players from the possibility of a terrorist strike, government authorities plan to implement temporary flight restrictions (TFR) over the Phoenix area in addition to traffic-management initiatives.
One spotlight at this year's National Association of Television Producers and Executives (NATPE) annual convention focused on general aviation, both on and off the airwaves. The event, held late January in New Orleans at the Ernest N. Morial Convention Center, is a promotional extravaganza serving as a catalyst for the introduction and sale of popular programming to the television and cable networks.
St. Louis has its fair share of big events, including last year's World Series and the upcoming NCAA Final Four next month. Midcoast Aviation's newly renovated FBO at St. Louis Downtown Airport (CPS) has seen its measure of foot traffic. The World Series did not end happily for local fans, as the Boston Red Sox slaked an 86-year thirst for a title, defeating the hometown Cardinals in four straight games.

The most wonderful and enjoyable New York stay.
My wife and two energetic boys from Brisbane, Australia were looking for an apartment that would provide a great base for our holiday in Manhattan. We were looking for an elegant and spacious property that would allow us to feel comfortable and not live on top of each other like in a hotel room. From the very beginning I was impressed with Julia and her willingness to help. The welcome was inviting and made us feel at ease. After travelling for almost two weeks prior to arrival the suitcase had accumulated some clothing in desperate need of a wash and within 24 hours our clothes were washed, folded and sitting on our bed upon our return from a day out. The first night was spent at the baseball out in Queens and Julia arranged a town car to pick us up after the game which was great with a tired family wanting to get home. Like all other accommodation there are some table stakes that are just crucial to a good experience. This starts with the hospitality of the host and the appearance of the apartment which both were fantastic. Then for the two kids the Wi-Fi was fast and consistent, and for me and the world cup being on and hot summer days we needed a great tv and an air conditioner to spend some down time after a long day of playing in central park. However, the most important aspect of a good holiday is a happy wife and that means shopping. The location is just terrific with a short stroll to central park and a neighbourhood of cafes, restaurants and shops. The proximity to Madison avenue is great and the boutiques went on for miles. However, two things stand out for us on our holidays and in this case both were big ticks. The beds were large and very comfortable and the showers were hot and strong. We went to Boston for a few days and were able to leave our suitcases in storage here which was very convenient. All in all i highly recommend this accommodation. We stayed in both the balcony suite and the terrace suite and both were of excellent quality. We would definitely stay here again.
Best Choice
The place was wonderful & exceeded my expectations. Will most probably contact you later this year for another stay. Great location, all was less than 10 min away. Thanks...
Spacious apartment, great location!
The apartment was spacious and clean; seemed bigger than advertised. David is a great host. He responded to questions throughout the booking process and he met us upon arrival, checked in during our stay, and met us again at check out. The apartment is in a great neighborhood, safe and close to many restaurants, shopping, and the metro. It was easy to get around the city, with this UES apartment as our base. Thanks, David. We would definitely stay here again.

The Boston Red Sox are World Seires champions.
The Sox completed a 4-2 series win over the St. Louis Cardinals with a 6-1 win on Wednesday night.
"This is for you, Boston. You guys deserve it," said David Ortiz, the Series MVP. "We've been through a lot this year and this is for all of you and all those families who struggled."
For the first time since Babe Ruth's team back in 1918, Boston won the title at Fenway Park. The 101-year-old stadium, oldest in the majors, was packed with 38,447 singing, shouting fans anticipating a celebration more than a lifetime in the making.
"Maybe they won't have to go another 95 years," said John Farrell, a champion in his first season as Boston's manager.
Shane Victorino, symbolic of these resilient Sox, returned from a stiff back and got Boston rolling with a three-run double off the Green Monster in the third inning on a 93 mph fastball from rookie sensation Michael Wacha. Pumped with emotion, Victorino pounded his chest with both fists three times.
John Lackey became the first pitcher to start and win a Series clincher for two different teams, allowing one run over 6 2-3 innings 11 years after his Game 7 victory as an Angels rookie in 2002.

Starlight, star bright, may all your dreams come true tonight! Dance under the stars in the Stellar Starlight Black Sequin Dress! Tiny black sequins twinkle across a network of intricately embroidered lace creating a beautiful overlay that is featured on a triangle-cut bodice. Thin spaghetti straps cross into an open back with a sultry lower back cutout, while a flowing Georgette skirt cascades out from a banded waist. Exposed back zippers/hook clasp closures. Fully lined. Model is 5'8" and is wearing a size small. Self: 75% Silk, 25% Polyester. Polyester lining. Hand Wash Cold. Imported.
How it fit:
"This item is a good quality party dress that looks as expected from the pictures. The only thing about it is that the waist runs very small. I usually wear a size small in dresses, however since they were out of smalls I ordered a medium. Even with the size up the waist fit me perfectly, however the top of the dress is a little too big in comparison to the size of the waist. If you are thin around the middle and have a larger chest this dress will fit you perfectly, for me the top was too large in comparison to the size of the waist. Still keeping the dress as it looks good on, but keep in mind the small size of the waist in comparison to the top!"
How it fit:
"This dress is beautiful and looks beautiful on, but I am a ALWAYS a size small. My ribs/chest are generally larger for my body as compared to my waist, because I have an athletic build. But this dress was just the opposite. I ordered a small and it was so tight around my waist that I had to order a size up, but the medium was too large around my chest. I had to tape it to me so that my bra wouldn't show. It still looked beautiful though, so I would recommend ordering a size up."
How it fit:
"This dress actually fit me pretty well, but I am 5'4", 112 lbs. The waist does seem to run a little small, but luckily it wasn't too tight on me. I wore 'sticky boobs' up top to give me a little more support and fill the top out a little more (I'm a 34A). It worked out really well for my Christmas party."

Money Saving Idea: Have High Interest Debt? This Solution Can Fix It!
When I embarked upon my journey to eliminate my high interest debt, I was disappointed with my initial progress. When I sent a large payment to my debt, the balance owed did not seem to go down very much. I soon realized that the interest rates I was being charged were incredibly high.
For example, a $7,000 debt balance with a 19.99% interest rate generates an interest rate charge of around $116.61 per month. In other words, I would have to pay $116.61 every month just to keep the balance the same.
That's when I discovered the power of using 0% Balance Transfer Credit Cards. I applied for one of these cards in under 5 minutes. My application was accepted and suddenly my interest rate was zero percent for a long time into the future! Even though I was charged a small transfer fee, this simple transaction positioned me to eliminate my debt very quickly because ALL of my payment was now being applied to reduce my debt balance!
In the previous example, nearly $2,000 in interest would be paid if only the minimum payments were paid over the next 18 months. This can be avoided by using a 0% Balance Transfer Credit Card!
I encourage you to use a 0% offer you've received in the mail, or here's one I've found that is 0% for 18 months on Balance Transfers:

How To Recover From A Financial Mistake (Purchasing Car That Is Too Expensive)
This post is part of the "How To Recover From A Financial Mistake" series here at JosephSangl.com. Click HERE to read the entire series of posts.
Financial Mistake: Purchasing Car That Is Too Expensive
Raise your hand if you've ever made this mistake. I remember graduating college and running down to the car lot to purchase a new vehicle. My twin brother and I had been sharing two cars: a 1981 Datsun B-210 and a 1986 Pontiac Firebird. They weren't in very good condition after enduring years of abuse from us.
I went to the new car lot and purchased a brand new 1997 Chevrolet Cavalier. I even bought one to reflect my allegiance to the mighty Purdue Boilermakers. It was painted black with a metallic fleck in it, and I had a gold pinstripe added to it to reflect the Purdue Black & Gold colors.
It was a financial mistake. With student loans, credit card debt, engagement and wedding ring debt, and an approaching wedding and honeymoon to help pay for, it turned out only to compound my financial woes.
So, how does one recover from this financial mistake? Consider employing one of the following methods.
- "Sell it" Method Sell the car, absorb the financial loss, and purchase a used car.
- "Attack the debt" Method Adjust budget so you can swiftly pay off the car and then drive it for at least four more years after completing pay-off.
"Sell it" Method This approach requires one to sell the vehicle immediately. For example, suppose a person recently purchased a new car for $25,000 with payments of $564/month for 48 months. They are experiencing great financial distress due to this purchase, but they owe more on the car than it is worth (also known as being "upside down" in a car). They have paid the debt down to $24,000, but the car is only worth $19,000. Here is how they can sell the car – even with this negative equity:
- Determine the true value of the vehicle. This is an important step. The owner of the vehicle will invariably over-value their car and potential buyers will naturally under-value it as they seek a good deal. Kelley Blue Book is a terrific resource for understanding the true market value of your vehicle.
- Find $7,000 to bridge the "negative equity gap" This could be a combination of a 401(k) loan, tax refund, selling some stuff, or working an extra job. This is a challenging step for many people, but it is definitely achievable!
- Find a buyer who will pay the true value of $19,000 for the car You will be able to put the $19,000 from the purchaser with $5,000 of the $7,000 you've gathered in Step #2 so the lender can be paid in full. This provides a clear title to the purchaser and eliminates your car note.
- Purchase an "I'm fixing my financial situation" car with the remaining $2,000 Now, it is imminently clear that a $2,000 car is nowhere near as nice as a $25,000 vehicle, but it is amazing on a budget.
- Save the monthly payment for the next two years and upgrade. By saving $564 for the next two years, this family will have $13,536 to upgrade their ride – with cash money and zero debt!
- Presto! You've fixed your financial mistake!
"Attack the debt" Method This approach requires diligence and changes to the monthly budget in order to pay off the vehicle in a swift manner. For example, suppose a person has purchased a $25,000 car of which they still owe $24,000. Their monthly payment is $564 for 48 months. Here is how they can fix their financial mistake.
- Eliminate costs from budget and apply savings to the car payment. Suppose this family decided to reduce their cable television services, eliminate their home phone, cease their gym membership they haven't been using anyway, and reduce their visits to restaurants. By taking these steps, they are able to apply an extra $300 per month toward their car payment.
- Focus. Focus. Focus. Nothing of significance really happens without great perseverance. By sticking to this for just 29 months, the vehicle will be paid off!
- Drive the car for another 4 years and pay the car payment to yourself. Reward yourself for paying your car off by adding the $300 savings back into your budget for other items, but continue paying the $564/month payment to yourself. In just four years, you will have saved $27,072 for your next car!
- Presto! You've fixed your financial mistake!

How To Recover From A Financial Mistake (SERIES)
Let's face it. We have all made financial mistakes. Whether you once carelessly spent money on useless trinkets while on vacation or bought a house at the peak market price only to have it drop in value like a rock, financial mistakes hurt. They hurt a lot.
I remember receiving a brand new Velcro wallet for Christmas one year when I around 10 years old. There was a place for paper money as well as coins. If I were to sum up this wonderful new wallet in one word, I would choose "Amazing." In this amazing wallet was money I had received from my aunts and uncles and grandparents. A total of $38 in paper money was in the wallet plus some change. After Christmas was over, we took one of my older brothers to the airport so he could fly back home. He was looking to purchase a newspaper. Since I wealthy beyond measure with my $38 cash money, I offered to buy the paper for him.
At the newspaper stand, I took out my wallet and opened it. This yielded the unmistakeable Velcro sound so everyone in the concourse knew I was opening my treasure chest. I chose the coins necessary to buy the paper and then placed the wallet on top of the newspaper stand so I could have both hands free to purchase the paper.
With newspaper purchase complete, I walked away – leaving my wallet on top of the newspaper stand.
You can probably guess what happened next: I soon discovered my error and raced back to find my wallet. I found it, but the money was gone. What a terrible and awful feeling it was!
Financial mistakes have a way of making us feel really low. This leads to any number of negative feelings: despair, depressed, frustration, desperation, anger, embarrassed, humiliated, confused, and ignorant.
In this series, I will be addressing some of the most common financial mistakes people make. We will talk about each mistake, its consequences, and how to recover from it.
The good news is you can recover from a financial mistake. It took several weeks, but I recovered from my lost Velcro wallet. And my huge credit card balance. And my student loans. And my furniture loan. And my engagement/wedding ring loan.
You can do this!

The Importance of Diversification – Ecclesiastes 11:2
I have a question for you:
Are your investments appropriately diversified?
Before you answer this question too quickly, let me ask the question in a more extended version:
Are your investments appropriately diversified – both within and outside of the stock market?
This is a very important addition to the question. Let me explain.
When the entire stock market goes up, it tends to drag the stocks of lower performing companies up with it. However, when the entire stock market goes down, it tends to drag down the stock price of companies that continue to perform very well. This is why it is vitally important to diversify your investments – both within and outside of the stock market.
Many people only have investments within their company retirement plan where they are offered various stock market investment options. As a result, their investments are subject to the greater market's performance.
Ecclesiastes 11:2 provides this great wisdom: Invest in seven ventures, yes, in eight;you do not know what disaster may come upon the land.
This is why I have invested in both market-based investments as well as non-market-based opportunities.
Here are some great non-market-based investments to consider:
- Rental Real Estate – Commercial and Residential
- Land – They're not making any more of it – except in a few volcanic islands
- Precious Metals – Gold, Silver, Platinum, etc.
- Antiques
- Talents – Write a book, Record an album, etc.
- Business – Start up a small business
I've found Ecclesiastes 11:2 to be very helpful in my money journey. As I've invested in a variety of assets, some of them have encountered struggles. By having a widely diversified set of investments, my other assets have helped carry the load until a struggling investment improved.

GreatSchools Rating
Teacher quality
Principal leadership
Parent involvement
My child is always getting hurt and picked on, all concerns have been voiced to the school, yet no corrective action has been implemented. In addition the class curriculum appears to be at least a year behind the rest of the state, which is already atrocious. I highly discourage moving to this district or enrolling in any grade level.
A very collaborative staff, focused on data driven instruction. Class size is reasonable. Many Level 3 teachers.
Estancia Elementary is a great place to learn and grow. My children have blossomed since they have been there and I really appreciate all the hard work that the Staff has put forth to make it such a fun place to learn.

This webpage contains information concerning proposed changes to monthly water rates and future financing of capital projects for water customers in the Cave Rock/Uppaway, Skyland and Zephyr Water Utility District. Douglas County hosted public workshops on January 27 and February 3, 2014 from 5:30-7:30pm at the Tahoe Transportation Center, 169 Highway 50, Stateline, Nevada to engage our water customers in discussing new water rates for operation and maintenance, as well as separate funding options for future capital needs in the water systems.
Douglas County has been working with a group of residents who are served by these water systems to determine the most appropriate solutions to funding our water system needs. New monthly water rates will become effective July 1, 2014, after formal adoption by the Douglas County Board of Commissioners. Based on recommendations from residents, the new monthly rates will cover the costs for operation, maintenance and existing debt on the systems, but the new rates are not sufficient to cover the significant cost of future capital projects for the aging water systems.
Douglas County took ownership of the Cave Rock/Uppaway, Skyland and Zephyr Water Utility District Water Systems approximately 23 years ago. Over the past 23 years, nearly $18 million, including over $9 million from outside sources, has been invested in infrastructure improvements to correct system deficiencies. There continue to be challenges in the cost to maintain the systems.
The following are the three main challenges:
Public Safety and Fire Flow Requirements
The average age of the water system is 58 to 60 years old. The failing infrastructure deficiencies will need to be addressed in order to meet Nevada Administrative Code, National Electric Code, OSHA and the Fire Code. This will help to ensure public safety.
The total unfunded cost for future capital projects is approximately $14 million. As stated above, Douglas County has been working with a group of residents who are served by these water systems to evaluate potential funding options. The County is working diligently to identify all available state and federal resources to assist with future capital funding needs, but must also determine the most appropriate financing mechanism for residents if outside funding is not available.
The two financing options include General Obligation (GO) Revenue Bonds and Special Assessment Districts:
Special Assessment Districts
A Special Assessment District is a taxing district that can assess annual installments against real estate parcels for the construction of public infrastructure.
These options will be explained in detail during our public workshops. You can also request information and provide feedback by emailing us here or calling us at (775) 782-9821.

Vows for Every Girl
- Thursday, June 07, 2012
We're all familiar with the "for better or worse" promise made at weddings, but this single girl over 40 discovered these wise vows make life beautiful for everyone.
It happened every June. I would attend a wedding—and an old, sad question would get stuck in my heart. "I wonder if I'll ever marry." Although I would be sincerely happy for the new couple, the melancholy would sneak in around the time they said their vows, "For better or for worse . . . for richer or for poorer . . . in sickness and in health . . . to love and to cherish . . . for as long as we both shall live."
Year after year I would hear those promises and ponder how extremely significant they were to a happy marriage. But it wasn't until recently that I realized how wise those vows were to every single girl . . . married or not.
These promises came alive to me when I realized that I must make these same commitments to myself—to see life for better or worse, for richer or poorer, in sickness and in health, to love and to cherish for as long as I live. Day by day those vows are leading me to a full, unexpectedly fulfilling, happy life.
"For Better or for Worse"
Life is sweet and life is hard for both the married and single girl. It's the truth.
A single woman is often tempted to blame everything that makes her feel helpless or unhappy on the fact that she doesn't have a man around. My married friends have laughed when I've complained that maintaining my car would be a whole lot easier if I was married. One resourceful girlfriend even changes the oil in her husband's car. "It's just not his thing."
You know it too, life happens to us all for better and for worse. A woman who spends her time thinking about what she doesn't have and what she can't do will soon be like a sieve. Everything, no matter how lovely or good, will fall right through. Nothing will benefit her very much. She will believe the lie that real life is for other people.
I choose to think better.
Never having married, I've had my own set of joys. I've tasted the freedom of riding out waves of opportunities. I've known the surprises that come from meeting my own financial needs (and getting someone else to change the oil in my car). Sure, I've been kissed less than I should have been and I've carried more than I've wanted. But when I've needed help, I've relied on a good God and his good people—just like we all need to do from time to time.
Life can be better; life can be worse and most of it has nothing to do with marital status.
"For Richer, for Poorer"
Will I have enough?
We all worry at that question. Usually it's about money, but we also fear not having enough time, energy, love, or some other precious resource.
These worries can easily undermine a single girl's security and whisper nasty "what ifs." Fear will put her in a cage by convincing her to hoard everything she has—even when what she has is enough. What I learned at 40 opened that cage.
I have always wanted a daughter.
I was a good daughter to my mom and have missed her every day since she left the earth in 1998. I look in the mirror at my mother's eyes and smile when I see her live on in me in good and quirky ways. I am my mother's daughter.
I was standing in a store's check-out lane one day last year when I saw a kiosk for a children's relief organization. Paper-clipped on the sign were three pictures of children who needed help. All had AIDS. All lived in impoverished Ethiopia.

Jeanine Romo
|By matt • Sep 3rd, 2009 • in Featured Model
Name: Jeanine Romo
Age: 22
Height: 5′ 6″
Weight: 115
Model Industry: Sports/Fitness, Beauty, Lifestyle, Print
Ethnicity: Hispanic
Favorite Workout: Running
Calories Per Day Consumed (Average): 2000
TheSBON sat down with fitness model, designer, runner and yoga junkie Jeanine Romo. During this interview, Jeanine gave us insight into how she keeps fit, as well as interesting tid-bits about herself. Read on to learn more about Jeanine.
TheSBON: So tell us a little about yourself? Where are you from, how old are you, what are your interests?
Jeanine: I'm 22, I grew up in L.A. I studied fashion design in school. I model part time. I just got signed with a sports/fitness agency, so I'm focusing on that now. I used to swim in high school, now I run to keep in shape. I like doing yoga
TheSBON: You were on the swim team, or you did recreational?
Jeanine: Swim team. I love swimming. My mom had me in the pool as a baby all the time. She enrolled me in mommy and me swim classes when I was 6 months old.
TheSBON: So you said you're a runner & you do yoga now – could you go over a typical week's workout schedule? Many of our readers are trying to lose weight and would love to know how to get a body like yours.
Jeanine: When I'm good Ill run at least 2-3 miles a day, do a little aerobics and yoga also (like 30 minutes every other day). I like working out to Jillian Michaels DVDs. She's awesome. She really gives you a great workout.
TheSBON: Do you take the weekends off, or do you workout then, too?
Jeanine: It depends on the weekend, if I have a long shoot that day it's hard to get a good workout in. I try to run more but do less aerobics and yoga. I try to do some weight just to keep my arms toned. I love California. There's no excuse not to work out with our awesome weather.
TheSBON: What type of yoga do you like?
Jeanine: I just do the regular type of yoga, I'm not super flexible. I have video on demand on my cable and the workout videos are free to watch, so I always change it up.
TheSBON: Do you do any dancing?
Jeanine: I don't dance much, but I like to try to dance salsa. It looks so pretty watching other people dance
TheSBON: When you say you lift weights to keep your arms toned, what type of arm workouts?
Jeanine: Curls, mostly, but with light weights.
TheSBON: With free weights or on the machines?
Jeanine: I'll switch between 3's and 5's free weights for the most part. Unless I have access to a gym [then] I'll use the machines. Buying a pair of free weight is super cheap and you can take them anywhere. I watch TV and do weights. I'm always trying to multi task. A lot of people think that they don't have enough time in the day to work out but you can always do more that one thing at a time.
TheSBON: Do you do any running races? Ever done a 5k or a triathlon?
Jeanine: I haven't ran a race since high school, but I'm training for next year's L.A. marathon.
TheSBON: I'm looking at your pictures and really like how white your teeth are. Do you do anything special for them?
Jeanine: No, I just brush often. I used to drink a lot of milk. I used crest white strips a long time ago, but other than that I just take care of my teeth.
TheSBON: The marathon will be a challenge.
Jeanine: Yes, marathons are tough. I'm not a long distance person, so it'll be a challenge
TheSBON: And what is your ethnic background?
Jeanine: I'm Mexican
TheSBON: Where do you feel you get your inspiration in life? You seem to take charge and have initiative.
Jeanine: I think I get it from music. I love listening to lyrics and applying it to my life.
TheSBON: What's your favorite type of music? Or favorite artist?
Jeanine: Songwriters are like poets. I listen to different types of rock. I love Incubus, AFI, Thursday, The Used, My Chemical Romance.
TheSBON: So, do you run outdoors or on a treadmill?
Jeanine: Outdoors. I like feeling like I'm running to somewhere
TheSBON: Yeah – so many great trails to explore.
Jeanine: I used to run on the treadmill, but I got bored just running in place.
TheSBON: Do you take an iPod with you?
Jeanine: Yes!
TheSBON: So what does your diet look like? Do you feel you can cheat since you run so much?
Jeanine: I usually eat a breakfast muffin for breakfast, a veggie burrito or a sandwich for lunch and pasta- or salmon-type dish for dinner. I love eating frozen yogurt though.
TheSBON: Do you care for snacks throughout the day?
Jeanine: I think it's ok to splurge when you work out.
TheSBON: Or do you stick to a strict 3 meal a day program?
Jeanine: Yes, I have 1 or 2 fruit servings and maybe like a granola bar or something. Things change every once in a while and it's ok to have a cake at your BFF's birthday party, but I know I can't have cake everyday.
TheSBON: Depends on how many best friends you have, I guess.
Jeanine: I just don't feel like working out when I'm stuffed.
TheSBON: Is the rest of your family in really good health? Do you have siblings? Do they work out too?
Jeanine: My 3 little brothers are naturally skinny, those kids can eat anything. I'm jealous… I grew out of that a long time ago. I run with my dad on the weekends, though.
TheSBON: Awesome. That's nice to hear. What else do you fill your weekends with – when you aren't out with dad or at a photoshoot?
Jeanine: He's trying to get in shape so we can run the marathon together
TheSBON: You'll have to let us know if you kick his butt or not.
Jeanine: I have been spending more time working on designs.
TheSBON: On your weekends?
Jeanine: I just got a new sewing machine so I've been working on more clothes lately. Yeah, I'm not a big party person. I'd rather spend time doing something productive.
TheSBON: You'll have to send some pictures of your patterns or designs so we can show them off.
Jeanine: I like to read, too. Yes, for sure. I recently did a photoshoot for this collection I made. We shot in downtown.
TheSBON: What have you been reading lately?
Jeanine: I've been reading a business management book
TheSBON: We saw the Top Hat by you – I'm assuming you made it?
Jeanine: Yes, I did.
TheSBON: Very cool!
Jeanine: I don't have anywhere to wear it though.
TheSBON: You'll have to find a fancy 1920s ball to go to.
Jeanine: I'll have to fix my time machine first.
TheSBON: What type of books have you been reading? What are your favorites?
Jeanine: I like reading fiction. My favorite book is Catcher in the Rye. I just reread it not too long ago.
TheSBON: Have you read the new Twilight books?
Jeanine: I liked reading Harry Potter at first, but then the movies came out and I got a little lazy. It's so much more exciting see it. No, I'm not fan [of the Twilight series]. I think I need to channel my inner 13-year-old girl.
TheSBON: Haha. Well, thank you so much Jeanine. I'm glad you've shared so much about yourself with us. Any advice to other girls interested in starting modeling?
Jeanine: I think they should be careful when meeting people for the first time. You can't just trust everyone.
TheSBON: That is very true – LA is a land of opportunity, but also scary if you don't know how to perceive others!
Jeanine: Yes, it is, but you should follow your heart. Networking is great, but you just need to be careful.
TheSBON: Good luck in your own career in modeling & the fashion designs.
Jeanine: Thank you so much.
