BURTON BRINK: N6USO's HOMEPAGE
My Family History
The Brink Family History
Everyone asks, "Are you related to the BRINK'S ARMORED TRUCKS?"
In a simple answer, YES! and NO.
My GREAT, GREAT, GREAT Grandfather Washington Perry Brink, founded Brink's City Express, or what
we now know as Brink's Inc. in 1859, in Chicago Illinois. He was known as Perry Brink.
After Perry Brink's death (1874), Brink's Express continued to grow and prosper under the leadership
of his son Arthur P. Brink, Also known as A.P. BRINK, who was my Great, Great Grandfather.
A.P. Brink resigned from the company in 1912 and went toCalifornia a year after his son Percy
Arthur Brink (My Great Grandfather) quit to move west. The company was no longer part of our family, as there
was a lot of different accounts as to how it was lost.
One account was that a partner in the company, "Stole the company" out from A.P. Brink, and that
was why he resigned. At any rate, we are no longer part of the Brink's Company Inc.
Percy Arthur Brink was also known as P.A. Brink had a son in 1903 named Laurence
Kaehler Brink (My Grandfather) in Chicago Illinois.
Laurence Kaehler Brink got married to Lucille Boyd Trenham from Alexandria, Minnesota. They
were married in Los Angeles, CA in 1927.
They Lived in Eagle Rock, Ca just outside of Los Angeles, just west of Pasadena, Ca.
They had 2 sons. My dad Laurence Kaehler Brink, Jr., born in Glendale, Ca in 1928; and my Uncle
William Bradford Brink, born in 1932, also in Glendale.
In case you have not noticed yet, But all the children have somewhere in their names, the name of a relative.
My dad Larry Brink Jr. met and married my mother Carolyn McCarron of Los Angeles, CA
in 1957.
In 1960, My brother Stephen Bradford Brink was born in Santa Monica, Ca followed by me, Burton
Laurence Brink, born in 1963, also in Santa Monica, CA.
Steve B. Brink has 3 Boys; Brian Brink, born Dec, 1992; Brendan Brink, born
April, 1995; and Roberto Brink, born June, 2002.
We lived in West Los Angeles, where we were in the Baldwin Hills Flood of Nov, 1963. In 1967, my mother, who
is an Architect, designed and built our house in Arcadia, CA. This was one of my best memories, where I got to pick
my own bedroom, and "Walk through the walls" of the house, as it was being built. Mom and Dad STILL live in that house.
I moved out, got married and had a Son, Tyler James Brink born in Bellflower, CA in 1993. His
mother and I divorced, and I was blessed to have God send my way my wife and best friend, Gerie Lin Hester,
who I married in 1995.
Gerie Hester, had a son Shawn David Smalldridge, born in Arcadia, CA in 1985.
We lived in Glendora, CA until we had to move to take care of Gerie's parents, Gerald and Gloria
Hester. We bought a house in La Verne, CA in 2002 and now take care of them both here.
...to put their religion into practice by caring for their own family and so repaying their PARENTS and Grandparents,
for this is pleasing to God.
1 Timothy 5:4 (Niv)
I have been blessed by many things in my life. One is my relationship with our Lord and Saviour,
Jesus Christ!!!
The other is to have a Loving and supportive family, and Gerie, my BEST FRIEND as my wife!!!
Thank you all so much for everything you have all done for me, and the support you all have
given me.
God and Family are always number one.
This site still under construction. Thanks for your understanding.

The Urban Studies Program is now being directed by Dr. Rayman Mohamed. Check his web page for his office hours.
For more information on the Urban Studies Program please view our brochure.
The Urban Studies Program is an undergraduate interdisciplinary course of study leading to a Bachelor's degree in Urban Studies. The program also offers a minor course of study in the field.
The Urban Studies program is flexible enough to serve a wide variety of student needs and interests. The "urban" in Urban Studies includes learning about suburban and exurban issues as well as studying the structure, condition and future of the central city. That is, students explore the spatial patterning of metropolitan systems as well as the inner-life of individual cities. Classes examine cities and their regions in historical context and in an international and comparative manner. Students will examine economic, political and cultural concerns, and explore practical solutions to current urban problems. As a highly interdisciplinary program, students are required to take courses in at least five separate disciplines, but may, with elective requirements, take courses in many more disciplines.
The Urban Studies degree prepares students for:

And after that also got to see "42" at the stadium. Couldn't think of a better way to spend a day at the ballpark.

- Service not up to scratchCbnmDined on 8/30/2014The waitress at the time seemed tired and unmotivated to explain to us how the food was meant to be eaten. As a first time Korean eater, It would of been helpful to get an introduction about the cuisine or a recommendation on what to order. As it was a restaurant co-owned by Quentin Tarantino, I expected more.Special Features:
- DeliciousJayeetzDined on 8/22/2014Inventive drinks, great barbecued spicy pork. Try the japchae as well!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- OpenTable Diner Since 2009VIPDined on 8/8/2014Never disappoints, good/predictable Korean food. was very accomodating to the vegetarian in our dining party.
- Great find!AmyKingDined on 8/7/2014Friends in town wanted to try Korean - found this spot in the West Village online. Great reviews across the board proved correct. Friends enjoyed the tasty food and friendly wait staff - thank you!Special Features:
- Great place..OpenTable Diner Since 2006Dined on 7/26/2014Enjoyed the food and service was very good. Only 2 Grill Tables so make sure when making reservation you ask for a grill table!Special Features:
- Great BibimbapeclecticdinerDined on 7/19/2014My wife and I both ordered the Bibimbap. The stone pot was nice and HOT. The vegetables appeared very fresh and the beef was tasty. It was great! We saw other diners order a variety of dishes that appeared delicious.I would recommend this to a friend.
- One of the best!DanHVIPDined on 7/12/2014We wherein the mood for some spicy Korean BBQ and did Do Hwa deliver...not only on the appropriate level of spicy-ness (you adjust by adding more/less chili pepper paste as you want) but overall deliciousness and attentive service. Highly recommend the kimchi scallion pancakeand beef dumplings to start. The side dishes are all very tasty, be careful as some are extremely spicy. We shared everything , which is really the way to go as it allows you to taste so much more. We had the bulgogi and bibimbap (hot, not cold) with fired egg on top. Both were outstanding. We'll def be backSpecial Features:
- POOR SERVICEOpenTable Diner Since 2014Dined on 7/9/2014Poor Service BAD food. Wait staff was rude. We wanted to be guided on the different dishes, what was spicy, what was popular. The waitress was annoyed and not helpful. The room was not busy so she did not have many tables to wait on, she could have helped us and we might have ordered something that actually had flavor.
- rickyo212Dined on 7/5/2014My friends were a bit reluctant to try something different but we all thought everything was very goodI would recommend this to a friend.
- Visiting an old "friend"visitornycVIPDined on 6/21/2014Saturday night, my husband and I dined at Do Hwa. It used to be in our "rotation" when we lived in the West Village. We decided to try it again and realized it should never have left the rotation. He had udon with seafood, I had cold buckwheat noodles with beef. While both were delicious, I thought I had the winner! We shall put Do Hwa back in the rotation, as the service was excellent and unobtrusive and the ambiance quite comfortable.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Great vegetarian optionsPrettypickieDined on 6/15/2014We went to do hwa for Father's Day and it was perfect. Not too loud so we could have pleasant conversation. Tables not too close so you don't feel like you are dining with the people next to you. We had the vegetable scallion pancake, rice cakes in chili sauce and crispy seaweed squares for appetizers, all were delicious. Two of us had the vegetable bibimbop which was delicious. My husband had the salmon, also very good and I had the grilled cod which was amazing. We'll definitely go back.Special Features:
- OpenTable Diner Since 2004VIPDined on 6/7/2014ordered the classic Korean bibimbob which was mushy & not very flavorful -- disappointing.
- The following 187 reviews are from the Do Hwa reviews archive.
- Very friendlyfulllifeDined on 5/23/2014My friend and I enjoyed a late evening dinner. The squid bibimbop was delicious. Actually, all the flavors we experienced were phenomenal. Our server Mira is a delight as is Ivana. You could tell that the team is very supportive of each other.Special Features:
- First Time Here - OutstandingFrankGVIPDined on 5/3/2014Our daughter has mentioned Do Hwa many times, and last night we had the opportunity to try it. The food is great, well seasoned and nicely prepared. The cold buckwheat noodle app is delicious, but the scallion pancake was a tad salty. The Dak Dori Tang and the Bibimbop were amazing. Definitely be back!Special Features:
- Menu for fourAureoleBarVIPDined on 4/30/2014Do Hwa's menu for four is a nice medley of appetizers and barbecue items. It's a great place to start for novices at Korean restaurants. The scallion pancakes appetizer and the pork barbecue were especially tasty.
- Must have Buckwheat NoodlesBlooming2VIPDined on 4/27/2014We very much enjoyed our meal. We've been there before and will definitely go back. The service was great. The drinks were interesting. Everything was fresh and tasty. The kimchi is delicious and the buckwheat noodles are our favorite dish.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Birthday treatAborb22VIPDined on 4/22/2014After being in the city for a few days sampling various cuisines, I had a craving for Korean food just like I've enjoyed in Seoul. We booked one of the grill tables for our party of 5, to celebrate birthdays for 2 of us. Try a few of their signature drinks . They were great. The various appetizers were delicious and the waitress was very helpful in recommending portions and options for our BBQ selection. This is a great place for a group dinner.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- My favourite Korean. A bitJoePublic1VIPDined on 4/13/2014My favourite Korean. A bit pricey for what you get but so much more civilized than K Town. I'm a sucker for interior design and I love the space.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.

- Good food, too noisy.OpenTable Diner Since 2010Dined on 3/22/2014The food is generally good, but the service was very slow and not attentive. The back part of the dining is extremely noisy; impossible to maintain a normal conversation. Too bad.
- Never disappointedOpenTable Diner Since 2007VIPDined on 3/17/2014I've been coming to Do Hwa for years, and they've always had solid service, delicious food, and great cocktails.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- As good as alwaysOpenTable Diner Since 2011Dined on 3/9/2014It's been a long time since my wife and I went to Do Hwa (we used to live closer to the neighborhood), but we've gone again a couple of times, and it is as wonderful as it ever was.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- RudeShandaVIPDined on 3/5/2014The waitress had a terrible attitude from the moment we sat down. This was a neighborhood restaurant for me but I will not return. The food isn't good enough to put up with the rude service.
- This was my first disappointingLuckyDogNYCVIPDined on 3/4/2014This was my first disappointing experience at Do Hwa. I've been there several times without hesitation, but the food and service took a big nosedive on this recent visit. I'm hoping it was an aberration as I've long been a fan.I would recommend this to a friend.
- Good, authentic Korean foodOpenTable Diner Since 2010Dined on 2/28/2014I'm Korean...and this is probably the best Korean restaurant in Manhattan. Very close to my mother's cooking. This place is better than any restaurant in NYC KTown. True.Special Features:
- best food everfreddiefDined on 2/21/2014The flavors at Do Hwa will knock your taste bud socks off. It's very loud on a Friday night, but that's to be expected. The food is extraordinary.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Did not get the reserved tableOpenTable Diner Since 2014Dined on 2/20/2014We reserved a grill table and did not get it. The interiors and the ambience in general make it not worth it if not for the grill.Special Features:

- Korean best food everKader2JeanDined on 2/14/2014I've been there only twice. 1st with friends and 2nd time with my girlfriend and it was so great. This restaurant is awesome for healthy good food. The best is the grill table you are making your own bbq.. A little bit expensive but so great you won't regretSpecial Features:
- Good food, but not hot enough...DarthMikeDined on 2/7/2014Just was expecting to have a good night grilling and introducing some friends to Korean food. Despite my request we didn't get a grill table. I realize that they say that they cannot accommodate every request for a grill table, but it would be at least nice if they inform us that it wouldn't be the case ahead of time so we can make other choices if we would like to. Or even letting us know that it would be very unlikely etc. The service was super star level. They didn't drop all the food at once, but they were very attentive. The food was great; however, don't expect anything but tourist-level of hot. Otherwise I have no complaints.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Terrible waitress and salty foodMFP85Dined on 1/24/2014Went for my birthday dinner with my boyfriend. He was only given one chopstick and a spoon to eat so he asked for another chopstick. We had ordered beef dumplings which tasted like chicken and veggie dumplings but the chopstick never arrived for my bf to start eating. 10 minutes later we ended up having to ask the bus boy/ guy that brought us our entries who finally brought him another chopstick right away. We ordered the beef bulgogi from the kitchen which was overly salty and the classic bimbop which was all vegetables and had barely any rice. Best thing from our meal was my pepper margarita and the sweet oranges we got at the end of our meal. I typically love Korean food but worst birthday dinner ever!
- Mediocre foodracheliaVIPDined on 1/10/2014Came here for my birthday with a large group. They were able to accommodate us last minute even though we arrived late. The service was good. It wasn't the best Korean food I've ever had, almost downright mediocre. We had the beef boneless short ribs, the potato pancake appetizer, jalapeno chicken, and some kind of soup. I really cant recommend any of it. My guests had a similar reaction to their dishes, even the bippenbop. I do not think I'll be back. Too bad too because they were so nice.
- good foodOpenTable Diner Since 2013Dined on 1/5/2014we had a nice evening with very good food... service was fast and 'helpful'. thanksSpecial Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- I have been here a coupleOpenTable Diner Since 2010VIPDined on 12/30/2013I have been here a couple of times and am always happy with what I get. Great cocktails and lovely food. Service is always excellent and I love the snacks that they bring out before the meal. The barbeque is definitely my favorite... so be sure to pick one of those.Special Features:
- Solid mealJlw232Dined on 12/28/2013Food arrived very quickly (almost too quick). Ingredients were very fresh and flavors were excellent. Excellent beer list and drink menu for an Asian restaurant.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Korean Barbecue in the West VillageRShubackVIPDined on 12/28/2013Do Hwa is a great find if you're a fan of Korean barbecue. It has all of the amazing flavors and fun of the more traditional restaurants but with a modern flare. The staff is extremely pleasant and the decor is hip. It's the perfect dinner for a foursome in search of something a bit different. Make certain to mention you want a barbecue table when you're making your reservation.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Native Korean person liked here.AandJVIPDined on 12/26/2013My Korean friend visited from Korea and we wanted to have a real Korean food with an expert. I looked up Open Table and I found this restaurant. The dinning room was chic and quiet that we could enjoy our conversation as well as great meals, our friend from Seoul said very good.We'll come to this restaurant whenever we have a chance. Strongly recommend.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Great timeEzMaxDined on 12/21/2013Went to Do Wha to celebrate a birthday. Service was excellent, the price was right and the menu for 4 is the bomb.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- food, yes! after a waittablewithfriendsDined on 12/13/2013The food at Do Hwa is always amazing & our out-of-town guests were raving about it for days. But despite our reservation, we had to wait over 1/2 hour for our table. The hostess was a bit squirrelly about the status of the table, telling us various contradictory things each time she spoke with us--she wanted us to be happy sitting at the bar, which we would have been had we not made a reservation and made plans around that time! Eventually apps arrived, complimentary, which is a very nice gesture, though as they came the table opened up; if we'd been greeted with "the table is going to be thirty minutes so please sit at the bar and chose an app on us" the outcome would have been the same but we would have been able to enjoy the wait more.Special Features:

Florida: The two-time defending national champions had an 18-game postseason winning streak, the longest since the UCLA dynasty, end at the SEC tournament in Atlanta. On Sunday, the Gators' run of nine straight NCAA appearances also ended after they went 21-11 against a soft schedule. It's the first time since Kansas in 1989 that the defending champ missed the field, and those Jayhawks were on tournament probation.
Ohio State: The Buckeyes lost their two best players and most of their top scorers after getting to the national championship game last season. Ohio State's young team struggled early against one of the nation's toughest schedules. Yes, they improved during the season and won 19 games. But the mediocre Big Ten couldn't get a fifth bid, making it the first time since 1980 that both teams from the previous NCAA title game were left out.
Boston College: The Eagles were one of the ACC's top teams the last couple of seasons and appeared to be headed toward another strong season this year. Losing 13 of their final 15 games changed everything, leaving Boston College with a 14-17 mark and out of the tournament.
Creighton: Missouri Valley Conference teams had been all the rage the last two seasons. Not this year. Creighton's 21-10 mark wasn't enough for an eighth NCAA appearance in nine years.
Georgia Tech: Early season losses to North Carolina-Greensboro and Winthrop were a precursor of what was to come for the young Yellow Jackets. They finished strong, winning four-of-six, but a 15-17 record gave them no chance of making the field.
Illinois: The 2005 national runner-up struggled with a young roster this season, losing 13 games by eight or fewer points. As usual, Illinois played well in the Big Ten tourney, winning three times in three days. But they needed four wins in four days to make it after going 12-18 during the regular season.
Maryland: The 2002 national champions were done in by inconsistency. They lost back-to-back home games against Ohio University and American, then won three straight road games in the ACC. That season-long pattern continued in the conference tournament where the Terrapins (18-14) were knocked out by Boston College. Maryland, seeded fourth in last year's tournament, went out in the second round to Butler.
Miami (Ohio): The RedHawks, a two-point loser to Oregon in the first round last year, finished 17-15 and without their coach, Charlie Coles, who was in the hospital after undergoing a heart procedure.
Nevada: The 2004 NCAA tournament darling when it reached the regional semifinals, ended its streak of four straight NCAA appearances.
Southern Illinois: The Salukis spent the past few years in the role of being a favorite to upset the big boys. They won't get that chance this season after reaching the regional semifinals twice since 2002, including last year. The absence ends their run of consecutive NCAA trips at six.
Texas Tech: The Red Raiders slim hopes slipped away after Bob Knight's resignation in February. His successor and son, Pat, went 4-7 after the midseason change. And even though Texas Tech finished 16-15, it wasn't good enough.
Virginia: A 15-15 record wasn't nearly good enough, and the seven-game losing streak in January and February ended their final hopes. Any questions? The athletic department even announced Saturday it had accepted a bid to the new CBI tournament - if it wasn't selected for the NIT.
Virginia Tech: The Hokies (19-13) wanted the committee to look at its ACC tourney performance against No. 1 North Carolina on Saturday. Instead they looked at an RPI rating of 58 and a 5-5 record over the last 10 games. The Hokies were eliminated in the second round last year by Southern Illinois.
Virginia Commonwealth: Apparently, 24 wins and a regular-season conference championship weren't enough to impress the committee. VCU, which upset Duke in the first round last year, will have to settle for the NIT.

Outs At Home: Red Sox TOOTBLANiest In 2013
The TOOTBLAN Database allows us to look at which teams – and third base coaches – ran into the most outs at home plate on a hit or would-be sacrifice fly in 2013.
The results below can tell us a bit about organizational philosophy. The Red Sox, for example, ranked 15th in TOOTBLANs overall but were No. 1 in getting thrown out at home (while also leading the league in runs scored by more than 50 runs). Meanwhile, the White Sox were second in getting thrown at home - and next to last in runs scored. Bad combination.
The Cardinals were third in baseball and first in the National League in runs scored while tying for 20th in getting thrown out at home. Third-base coach Jose Oquendo did a stellar job on sending and/or holding all but one runner – Allen Craig, who accounted for six of the seven Cardinal outs at home.
The Pirates are another interesting case. They were only thrown out at home four times (next to last in all of baseball), as third-base coach Nick Leyva kept a tight leash on runners on hits or would-be sacrifice flies.
The Pirates, however, more than made up for it by having the contact play on virtually any time a runner was on third (just a bit of hyperbole): The Pirates made a league-leading 18 outs at home on a fielder's choice with an open base.
Below is a look at the number of baserunners each team had thrown out on a hit or would-be sacrifice fly - from most to least (with MLB runs scored rank):
1. Boston Red Sox: 15 (1st in runs scored)
2. Chicago White Sox: 14 (29th in runs scored)
3. Detroit Tigers: 13 (2nd in runs scored)
4. Los Angeles Dodgers: 12 (17th in runs scored)
4. Philadelphia Phillies: 12 (26th in runs scored)
6. Chicago Cubs: 11 (28th in runs scored)
6. Milwaukee Brewers: 11 (19th in runs scored)
6. Texas Rangers: 11 (8th in runs scored)
9. Atlanta Braves: 10 (13th in runs scored)
9. Cincinnati Reds: 10 (12th in runs scored)
9. Colorado Rockies: 10 (10th in runs scored)
9. Seattle Mariners: 10 (22nd in runs scored)
13. Arizona Diamondbacks: 9 (14 in runs scored)
13. Los Angeles Angels: 9 (7th in runs scored)
13. Minnesota Twins: 9 (25th in runs scored)

20. Baltimore Orioles: 7 (t-5th in runs scored)

Reliving the Good Old Days in Most, Czech Republic
What do you get when a Communist government discovers coal underneath a city? A plethora of panelák (blocks of flats) and the Gothic Church of the Assumption of the Virgin Mary (kostel Nanebevzetí Panny Marie). A 15th-century design with 12th-century foundations, the church was designed by Jakub Heilmann at the same time Luther was nailing a historically-altering piece of paper to a door in nearby Germany. This Gothic church is the only relic which remains of the old town of Most (Czech for bridge), a mining town in North Bohemia. When the local leaders decided in the 60s to destroy the historical center of the city for the coal which was underneath, they were determined to prove their might and saved the church by moving it 841m to the outskirts of the city, where it stands today. It is now the only steeple in town and serves as a museum, concert and wedding hall, and a monument to what once was (according to locals) the most beautiful historic town outside of Prague. Pay 50Kč (less than $3) and you can walk through the refurbished sanctuary, watch the video (A Church on the Move), and climb the bell tower for a view of the nearby castle (Hněvín) and the old mining quarries.

I read the books and wished I hadnt right after I finished the last sentence of the last book.The only reason why I did was to get my books,in which were being held hostage by my girlfriend,back.They are told through the point of view of a pathetic teenage girl who needs a guy to coddle her and make her feel complete.Also.Why would a coven of vampires,especialy Carlisle Cullen,keep a pathetic,clutzy human girl around whom brings nothing but trouble to his coven?
The books are not worth the money my girlfriend paid for them and the only movie worth a sh*t is New Moon only because Chris Weitz directed it and that no talent hack Robert Pattinson was not in it that much.

Publication: The Day
Norwich - Democratic mayoral candidate Alderwoman Deberey Hinchey continued fundraising efforts after her successful Sept. 10 primary, with a combined total of more than $30,000, including $5,920 in the latest campaign finance reporting period.
Incumbent Republican Mayor Peter Nystrom raised $6,825 during the September fundraising period covered in the reports submitted Oct. 10 to the city clerk's office.
The Oct. 10 reports were the first filed by Nystrom and Libertarian mayoral candidate William Russell, who raised $2,130 during that period.
Russell listed fewer individual campaign donations, with totals ranging from $100 to $500, and the candidate contributed $100 of his personal funds to the campaign, the report said. During the period, Russell spent $1,467 on typical campaign expenses, such as a campaign website, copies, postage, signs and business cards.
Individual contributions to Nystrom's campaign ranged from $30 to $250, and Nystrom contributed $2,250 to his campaign. His expenses included signs, printing fliers, business cards, bank account fees, a website and an appearance by Abraham Lincoln re-enactor Lewis Dube at a campaign function.
Hinchey's campaign received individual donations ranging from $15 to the $1,000 limit for individuals.
As with her primary bid, Hinchey's campaign expenses have been dominated by her use of professional campaign consultant the Vinci Group of Manchester to handle most of her campaign business. During the September period, Hinchey's campaign paid the group nearly $10,000 for services ranging from producing campaign materials to consulting fees.
Only one City Council candidate, Democrat William Eyberse, has raised campaign funds thus far. Eyberse raised $2,085, with individual contributions ranging from $75 to $250, with another $610 in smaller contributions not required to be listed separately.

Colorado Cabin Rentals(150)

Recent Colorado Reviews
100 stars
The Willis Retreat was the perfect getaway for my wife and I, plus our two dogs. Absolutely everything we may have needed was there, and we were amazed at the attention to detail within the cabin. The kitchen is huge, the whole place is decorated beautifully, and the booklet Randy provided told us everything we needed to know about the property and amenities. The fenced area turned out to be one of the best features, since we could let the dogs outside without worrying about them. We also let them roam around the property a bit, and they had a blast. It was so quiet, calm and relaxing. We can't wait to book another stay. Randy also gave us several suggestions for excursions around the area where we could take our dogs, and that made The Willis Retreat our favorite vacation so far. 100 stars. Thanks Randy.
What a lovely cabin and beautiful setting. Perfect gathering place for our family reunion. Plenty of room for all ten of us. Clean, comfortable and well appointed. Felt right at home. The aspen groves were gorgeous. The mountains breathtaking. The cabin was perfectly situated--close enough to the town of Estes Park yet far enough away to feel like we'd gotten away from it all. Tons of hiking nearby. Hope to be back soon.
We loved this wonderful mountain retreat!
The home was beautifully decorated, clean and comfortable. The kids loved the bunk beds, porch swings and fire pit! We will definitely be staying here again when we return to Grand Lake!

Mass murders in Connecticut
First thing you hear is more gun control! What if one teacher or one janitor would have been armed. This nutcase may have gotten a few people or maybe none if someone had a legal firearm.
It is our responsibility to defend the weak and the innocent. I think all who can should carry a firearm, trained and ready to defend those who need defending.
How many more tragedies must happen at a "no gun zone" before we pull our heads out of our butt.

In what I've learned about evolution in school, it's so easy to wrap my mind around it. It's too simple. In my opinion, that in itself proves it wrong. Anyway, isn't it kind of boring to believe in something predictably boring? I love the fact that God is so great that creation in itself blows my mind everyday. In the end, only a perfectly beautiful God can create such a beauty as this.

Impact investing aims not only to secure financial returns, but also to generate positive social and environmental impacts.
Investors include foundations, development finance institutions, specialized investment funds, and ultra-high net worth individuals. Impact investing is channelling substantial private capital flows into initiatives that address some of the most pressing challenges confronting developing Asia and the Pacific. A study by the Monitor Institute has projected that the global impact investing market could grow to $500 billion by 2018.
In line with its overarching objective of poverty reduction and strategic agenda of inclusive growth, ADB supports impact investing in its developing member countries. Two ongoing streams of work include support for inclusive business, and support for social enterprises. Inclusive business is a business initiative that engages the low-income segment of the population in a way that benefits poor people by providing livelihood opportunities and access to essential goods and services. A social enterprise is a business-oriented not-for-profit, or a mission-oriented for-profit enterprise.

The community thinks...
Don't judge a car by its size... by Tammie on 01/27/2009. Trim: 2002 Toyota ECHO 2-Door Sedan, Owned 4 years.
Pros: I love the gas mileage this car gets. I've owned this car for three years now without a single problem. Routine maintenance (oil change, tire rotations etc.) have been the only things needed to have this car running at optimal performance. It's easy. Smooth ride and although it has a small engine can keep up with a lot of cars on the highway. doesn't look like alot of space but great trunk and passenger space. Drove it from Washington state to Arizona (through Idaho, Oregon, Utah, Nevada) without any problems at all!
Cons: The molding on the outside of the car gets dirty and hard to keep it looking great, but the 03 versions eliminate that problem since they dont have it!
Overall review: Great! recommended for single person or two person commutes and gas saver! Buyers its a great investment in the long run, toyotas are highly reliable!

A Manitoba, Canada, native who has played for the Bears since 2004, Idonije, 29, sold the 3,081-square-foot house after listing it last year for $525,000 and later reducing it to $499,900. He purchased the home in June 2006 for $610,000.
Listing agent Marco Amidei of Homesbymarco at Re/Max Suburban said Idonije was traveling in Africa and unavailable for comment. Amidei also said he was unable to comment on the sale or on where Idonije has moved.
Former Kraft chief lists Gold Coast unit
A 4,965-square-foot co-op unit on the Gold Coast that retired Kraft CEO John Richman owns is on the market for $7.5 million.
Richman oversaw Kraft's merger with General Foods after Philip Morris Cos. bought Kraft in 1988. Richman retired the following year.
The nine-room, full-floor co-op has three bedrooms, four full baths, two half baths, a fireplace and views in all four directions.
Richman first listed the unit in September for $8 million.
Listing agent Marie Campbell of Koenig & Strey declined to comment.
Cubs president buys in Winnetka
Chicago Cubs President Crane Kenney has paid $1.5 million for a 3,791-square-foot house in Winnetka.
Kenney, who served as Tribune Co.'s general counsel from 1996 until 2008, began overseeing the Cubs in 2003. He has remained with the team since Tribune Co., which owns the Chicago Tribune, sold it in October to the Ricketts family.
Built in 1953, the five-bedroom house that Kenney purchased was first listed for $2.2 million in July 2008, and in February 2009 was reduced to $1.9 million. It then was reduced to its final asking price of $1.65 million in August.
The house has four baths, a first-floor master suite, new windows, an indoor endless pool and a screened porch, all on a 0.72-acre lot.
Reached at his Wrigley Field office, Kenney declined to comment on the transaction. He also owns a 5,636-square-foot house in Winnetka that he had built in 2001 on a half-acre lot about a mile to the west, according to public records. That house is not on the market.

GreatSchools Rating
Teacher quality
Principal leadership
Parent involvement
My daughter has attended Jefferson for two years now. Susie finishing up her 1st Grade year. I love her school and especially her teacherMrs. Cooney. I am impressed how much my daughter has learned and how much she likes her teacher too. I am always very informed on class, school and community ativities. I am aware of how my daughter is doing behavior wise daily and I receive her tests and classwork weekly so I can see what she works on and how she is improving or needs to improve. I love the school and am proud of the teachers, office workers, nurse, etc.
My daughter has just started school this year. The teachers seem not to pay attention to chidren when they are hitting others or just being out of hand. When they are told so and so hit me they just act like it is no big deal. They fail to inform parents of things going on until the last minute. The school seems to be going slowly as far as learning goes. My child's homework is not the least bit challenging. I know she might only be in kindergarten. She seems to be more advanced then most in her class. She will bring home a weeks worth of homework and be finished with it within 15 minutes. As far as art goes there it consists of a print out to color and cut out then glue to a piece of construction paper. They do not really let the children be creative.

I love this map…unique way of capturing your travels.
I can't wait to Lean In, and start reading Sheryl's new book: Lean In: Woman, Work and the Will to Lead, with my amazingly smart, creative and driven girlfriends, Amanda, Caitlin and Robin.
Maureen Corrigan on Sheryl Sandberg's Lean In:
But, but, but, … there are still some compelling reasons why, echoing some of Sandberg's supporters, I'd optimistically slide Lean In into my teenage daughter's bookshelf. First of all, the final two chapters of the book are more hard-hitting, riskier, less worried about alienating those readers, like stay-at-home moms, who may not share Sandberg's vision. Sandberg kicks off her final chapter by saying:
"For decades, we have focused on giving women the choice to work inside or outside the home. … But we have to ask ourselves if we have become so focused on supporting personal choices that we're failing to encourage women to aspire to leadership."
In her famous 2010 TED Talk on the dearth of female leadership, Sandberg sounds more like that: opinionated and challenging.
What an inspiring little dude!

EL PASO — Beyonce and hubby Jay-Z could be in trouble with the government over a recent trip to Cuba.
Two Republican lawmakers are asking the Treasury Department to look into the couple's vacation there.
They are suggesting the superstar singers might have violated U.S. travel restrictions.
After the Castro regime took power in 1959, the U.S. outlawed tourism there.
Beyonce and Jay-Z were photographed in Havana last week.
They were apparently celebrating their fifth wedding anniversary on the communist island nation.

Colonial Townhouse Apartments Resident
This was a fairly average apartment. If you are a UConn student without a car, it is a great choice for off-ca Read Morempus housing. The bus has two stops in the apartment complex, drops you off right on campus, and is absolutely free if you show your UConn student ID. Our biggest issue with this place is we were robbed twice in the same week, and while we have no definitive proof, all evidence would suggest that it was the maintenance staff. Other robberies took place with the same circumstances.
December 24, 2013
Manager Response
We are happy that you have enjoyed the WRTD transportation available. With three bus stops on our property, it is certainly a good option for those without cars looking to travel to the UConn campus. However, we are concerned about the items you say have been removed from your apartment. We take all allegations seriously, and only ask that our tenants report these cases to us directly so that we can take action on them at the time it occurs.
Colonial Townhouse Apartments Resident
The property has gone downhill a lot in the last few years. I really liked it when I moved in 5 years ago, bu Read Moret things had gotten terrible. The hot water would be shut off with no warning, the heat was turned off to install a new heater in the middle of a blizzard, there was an ever growing pile of trash behind my building, and the lawn was seldom mowed. It was overgrown with weeds to the point that there were a lot of bugs. Maintenance came in my apartment once (that I know of) without notice
November 2, 2013
Manager Response
We are sorry that you have not fully enjoyed your experience with us. Although we try to minimize any inconveniences to our residents, sometimes we need to shut off water/heat unexpectedly to make repairs. This is also when maintenance may need to enter your apartment without warning. If you can let us know which building you live in, we would be happy to pay particular attention to the upkeep surrounding it.

President Higgins' Visit to the UK

He said whether to use the "Green Dam Youth Escort" software will be the buyer's decision.
China in May said it would require all PC makers to pre-install the software or provide it on a CD starting July 1. That requirement then was repeatedly delayed amid a storm of controversy from PC makers and free-speech advocates.
The government still plans to require the software in schools and public Internet cafes, according to Telegraph.co.uk.

All that remains is piles of concrete, twisted metal and rubble after the 14-story Scott Towers building was demolished with more than 400 pounds of dynamite Sunday.
And now, emergency crews from across the region are using the site to train for a mass casualty type of disaster.
Crews have been prepping the debris for the training exercise that began Wednesday morning. Firefighters set a number of small-scale fires to burn around the destruction and then firefighters began working to put them out as quickly as possible.
Underneath the debris, a number of props and mannequins were placed to see how quickly search and rescue teams can get to the training victims, get them taken to the simulated emergency room set up by St. Francis Hospital and handle the mass casualties.
WATCH: Scott Towers falls to the ground in seconds
From police to paramedics, the training exercises will also test the ability of all the agencies involved to work together, communicate and work quickly in the case of a large disaster. Additionally, the regional Hazardous Materials/Weapons of Mass Destruction team and technical rescue assets, including teams from Columbia and Asheville, will be involved in the training.
Passersby may notice a large emergency personnel presence in and around the former Towers and downtown Greenville Wednesday through Friday as the simulations continue, but citizens are reminded that it is just a training exercise.
City officials said the training exercises will take place between 7 a.m. and 9 p.m. Wednesday, Thursday and Friday. NEO Corporation, who is the company in charge of the demolition, will begin debris removal Sunday at the construction site.

The difference between a duvet and a comforter set?
so so so so awesome. i've been waiting to find a duvet i actually like at the right price... these are perfect.... can't wait. :)
What about thread counts? Most of Targets lines are about 200 -250. That is not nice. Otherwise, I anticipate this will sell like crazy.
Anyone have an idea of when this is due to launch?
A comforter set means you get the comforter with the set and the comforter is in that pattern. A duvet set means you get a duvet cover in the pattern to go over a comforter you already own.
love the perch set! wonder if my husband would feel the love too...
yanners - The Baby line is due out at the end of the month, while the rest of the Home collection should be in stores late February. I read somewhere that the furniture will only be available online.
The Baby Collection launches this month. Check it out on OhDeeDoh. The Home Collection comes out in February!
I got burned on the Swell bedding at Target (big time) so I'm going to pass...but I kinda like the throw pillows.
I wish the sheets were more interesting. It's always hard to find good patterned sheets.
Why must the quality be so bad? I keep trying to buy bedding at Target and it is cheap and scatchy everytime. Makes me sad...
are they doing the peonie pattern in a duvet set?
i'm kind of not impressed. it's like they saved their old design rejects for target.
These just look cheap to me. Too bad.
What is everyone talking about? These all look gorgeous and well-designed to me!
This reminds me of some people I know who don't trust anything without an exorbitant price sticker. Sad.
And I think I read somewhere that these duvets and sheets will be 300 thread count, which I believe is close to their non-Target brand counts. I could be mistaken.
It's not like Dwell manufactured them, but they would have had to approve the quality based on whomever the licensee/manufacturer is that Target asked them to use. That said, I had high hopes for the Swell stuff...and the colors ran and the fabric shrunk (note: it wasn't on a high setting) in the dryer and pill'd up badly. It's likely the same manufacturer (assumption on my part) so I wouldn't hold out hope...
Dwell always does very cool designs. I wonder what the price points will be at Target compared to the regular Dwell line. Also, is the quality really comparable?
My favorite Dwell bedding is still the Chinoiserie set:
i agree this looks sort of cheap and like something from the dwell reject pile. maybe i'm getting jaded, but this aesthetic is just getting tired to me.
I think it's important to remember who the key audience is. It's people who can't typically afford the luxury of Dwell bedding. Keeping that in mind, the quality might be a little less then what is expected from Dwell as this line was designed for Target customers. I like Target and think their designer lines are a great way to introduce more expensive brands/ designers to the mainstream... and for those of us who enjoy these expensive items, it gives us the opportunity to have them in our homes (maybe not the high quality that is normally expected). When I go to Target, I don't expect Restoration Hardware quality... it doesn't matter who's name is on the item. It's still Target.
In a way, this is really nothing new.
Dwell has been selling lower quality products to Wal Mart (and other discount stores) for some time now. They recycle and revamp their old designs and as far as I know they have even knocked-off their competitors and sold those designs to Wal Mart & other big box stores: http://www.designspacenyc.com
This is just a deal where they get to attach their names to some of the lower quality merchandise they sell. I think actually attaching their name to these products at Target will only serve to hurt their brand in the long run. They probably have $$$ signs in their eyes right now and as such may not realize that this type of license only serves to cheapen a brand. The quality at Target really is inferior and the truth of the matter is that you usually get what you pay for.
Eeew, to sleep on someone's old sheets and blankets from a thrift store...YUCK!
And oh the people that love to say "I only sleep on 1.5 million thread count dahhhling. Ick!
Anyway. If you like em, get em. If you don't, leave em. Simple.
orangejuice - you're sleeping on sheets & blankets (and pillows) that have been slept and drooled on by oodles of different people when you stay in a hotel. What's the difference?
I totally agree about the vintage---with the exception of pillows, I only buy new ones of those. At least if I buy at thrift and bring it home I can sanitize it to my liking and if I have a problem with it I can toss out a few bucks instead of half a days pay. That said, I'll throw my vote in for Target goods with a caveat; I always buy for quality no matter whose name is on the package. If the quality isn't there I don't buy, simple. I purchased some Thomas O'Brien sheets at Target in a wonderful brown floral pattern and they were the softest, smoothest most comfortable sheets I owned.( I had to leave them when I moved and I'd re-purchase except they don't come in a size to fit my double bed now.)
I just wish we had Target in Canada, you guys are all so lucky...I may have to do a little "cross-border shopping" as we call it here.
I am always amazed at how the price differential between comforters and duvets is almost nominal; it makes the comforter set a better value every time. I would gladly pay the extra $10 to have a better tailored look and not have to hassle with peeling/replacing covers on laundry day.
I am not impressed at all with the quality of the DwellStudio flagship brand merchandise (which is outrageously overpriced for what it is), so I am going to have guarded expectations about this. Still, I am really digging the design of the Peony and Regency ensembles...
I heart Tarjay!
In reponse to kellylc -- I can't speak for everyone here, but I don't buy anything with an exorbinant price tag, and I don't have higher reverence for expensive things. I would rather spend the same amount of money on a plain but nicely made sheet set than a sheet set with the Dwell name on it that looks, to me, cheap and post-trendy. I don't like the design, but that probably has more to do with my personal aesthetic than anything else, and it doesn't mean I'm 'right'. To each their own.
The line is set to launch on January 28, according to The New York Times yesterday.
In response to hejiranyc -- I look at the fact that duvets are only $10 cheaper than like-patterned comforters as indicative of the quality of the comforter in question: it's the same as the duvet on the outside, with $10 worth of polyfill on the inside.
Give me a duvet any day -- they help my beloved down comforters last years and years, while adapting to different rooms and decors along the way.
I like the Perch, Baroque, but especially the Modern Border. It's not a style I usually like, but the crisp cleanness looks so lovely... I might have to spend the $70...
I most certainly do have a problem with second hand furniture of the fabric variety. It gives me goosebumps just to think about sitting or touching a sofa that is used and not THOROUGHLY cleaned and whose origins and previous owners are questionable. Personally I would not buy a used sofa that is upholstered in fabric. I have a friend who loves getting his furniture from thrift stores and he has 2 old sofas that me and my boyfriend refuse to sit on when we visit because he has NEVER had them cleaned. He looked at me like I was crazy when I proposed that he have Stanley Steamer come out. LOL.
I don't like used personal things like sheets, upholstered, clothes, etc. I know there will be lots of naysayers but it's a personal taste.
I'm willing to admit that I have a lot of double standards when it comes to the issue. I will but a used table, lamp, etc.
I love Target and I like Dwell, but I'm not liking these. Very drab and cheap-looking. I do like the striped sheets, though.
Hmm. I was excited about Dwell expanding their market, but I'm not loving these colors or patterns. Disappointing.
I just looked up Dwell Studios bedding since I had never heard of it before. Their "real" bedding is way tackier than Target.
I am getting sick of this aesthetic, too. I'm glad I didn't fall for it. I almost did with their Chinoserie pattern. And orange juice may be a germaphobe. Ever ride a train or airplane? Do you stand during flights?
The cotton seems to have a sheen in the photos, so I am guessing that the thread count might be at least 300?
and I'm sorry, I like the Dwell for Target Baroque over the similar Dwell Talon design.
I remember hearing about the Swell bedding, and how pill-y and low quality it was! but - this may not be the same vendor, as the Big box retailers make all vendors (like my employer) compete in a sort of auction for the projects. I have a feeling Dwell is taking a huge role in the production or at least the production quality of the Target Line. I do also wonder if this is going to hurt their boutique line. (Outside of Isaac and Mossimo, Target never seems to keep Designers for long). But - isn't Dwell doing real linen and such for top of their boutique bed and dining/kitchen lines?
Target doesn't intend to keep most designers for long. They're one-time deals meant to be limited editions.
I bought the Swell Stripe bedding back in the day, and I still use it. No problems with it except the ones you'd expect of any other sateen sheets in that thread count (feels similar to some 270s I have). I've heard that the sheets that bled and faded were the darker-colored lines.
I've only seen one Dwell set I can recall liking. (a higher-end version of Perch, perhaps -- but aren't birds played out as a motif?) The others look cheap and loud to me: I think we'll find them unusually embarrassing in 10 years. But I've mentioned here that I don't like Adler much aside from his ceramics, and this is very Adler-inspired.
I'm also always bemused when ppl differentiate between "comforter" and "duvet" -- a duvet IS a comforter. What some ppl are calling a "duvet" is actually a duvet cover. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Duvet
I'm definitely underwhelmed by the choices. The only pattern I even remotely like is Perch and I'm not sure if I like it enough to buy it. It also only seems to be available as a comforter and I prefer a duvet.
I agree that the Dwell Targhetto sheets are not great. Dwell in general needs to revamp. They have been doing the same thing for years. Garnet Hill had these type of designs a couple of years before Dwell started their business. It was a small world and the person doing the Garnet Hill stuff was friendly with the Dwell-ers. Anyway, as others have mentioned- it has run from KWID to Jonathan Adler to West Elm and beyond. It is over.
The coolest item that I ever purchased at Target was the "online only" Art Miami limited edition towels. They are the biggest towels ever and super soft. I actually love the Thomas O'Brien towels at as well- they are the bargain of the century.
I personally only like all white bedding (with maybe a small piping). So these would be out of the question. I also think that some home items are worth spending your money. Linen is such a thing. I prefer buying something expensive that I know will last for decades. I could maybe buy a cheap lamp or even a cheap pillow for decoration. All white will never go out of style and is very easy to wash. What I look for is 100% egyptian cotton and percale (over 200 threads). I don't understand why people say that 200 is bad. 200 is consider luxury in the industry. But it also depends on the cotton. The brand that I prefer is Frette.
I have the baroque duvet set with the grey and yellow throw pillow and I am at a loss as to what color to paint my walls. Anybody have any ideas?
I recently bought some (solid color) 400 thread count, easy-care, extra deep sheets at Target, and I have been quite pleased with them. The set cost about $50 if I remember right. The old sheets that went to the local thrift shop were the next step down the line and they did not wear well. I conclude that Target is fine if you keep to the top of the line.

Yuck!! Too jarring, too geometric, too Hollywood Regency. Not my cup of tea, no matter who designed it or what the price tag is.
I worked at Target for two years. I wanted the one with the birds pictured at the top soooo bad. Unfortuantely, working at Target doesn't let you afford many Target items..haha.
Speaking from personal experience, I have the Perch bedding set from Target and I love it. It's very comfortable, and I thought it was the best looking out of all the Dwell bedding sets.
However, I'm not sure I would buy the comforter again. Once it gets wet, (for example, a dog pees on it like what happened to me) the dyes bleed. And while you can wash it, it only makes things worse. Its really big, and difficult to get completely dry. And once it is dried, its very wrinkled--even after I shake it and try to smooth it out!
I also bought the perch set, great for a summer change for a lighter comforter.
I'm back to my feather cover and duvet- I think it will make for nice bedding for the guest room!
Decent quality, good price, and the print was too pretty to pass up!
Just another reason I adore Target!! Dwell Home keep that stock coming!! Look @ this gorgeous bedding line. FANTASTIC!! I own two Dwell bedding sets from Target. My favorite is the one listed above on the front page of this posting with the birds in shades of brown. I love everything about it starting from the pattern design to sateen sheen to the cloud like feel right down velvety touch!! At these great prices, you can bet I'd be added another set or two to my spring fling collection!!
