I wasn't a big fan of this casserole. It was easy enough to make and it looked pleasing, but it seemed to be missing something. I will look for a different casserole the next time I want to make grits.
Cheddar Cheese Grits Casserole
This baked cheese grits casserole is perfect for lazy weekend mornings. Just cook the grits in milk and butter, stir in eggs, salt, and pepper, and pop in the oven–it's ready in less than an hour. For other Southern dishes like this one, see our complete collection of Southern recipes.

The service buzz
On the menu: Goldwell's New Blonde Highlight Recharge Service
Target client: Anyone who wants to eliminate regrowth challenges between highlight services.
Innovations: New Concept + Speed
In just five minutes, this service revitalizes existing highlights at the halfway mark. Lifting the darker, natural hair up to 1.5 levels, New Blonde softens harsh contrasts that develop between appointments.
Do the math*
A client who gets highlights every 12 weeks would come in at the six-week point for the Recharge. If you price Recharge at 30-50 percent of your highlighting fee, your potential gross revenue increase could be:
• $30/New Blonde Highlight Recharge Service
• 30 highlight clients/week
• $900/week x 52 weeks = $46,800/year
• Topchic shades refl ect popular and runway trends.
• The exclusive Depot System delivers precise measurement, limited waste, customized color formulation and a professional image when displayed in front of clients.
• The new Color Box provides growth-producing turnkey concepts such as permanent Color Centers—central units for the color consultation, formulation, application and merchandising.
• Recently launched Men ReShade, which fades on tone, blends gray in five minutes at the shampoo bowl.
"From our research, we know that salons average 30+ highlight services a week," says Carpenter. "New Blonde allows the salon to introduce new service concepts and increase their revenue by up to 30 percent!"**
Trend Alert
New Blonde also is ideal for supporting a full highlights service. By softening the base level between highlighting sections, New Blonde creates a seamless, natural blonde look.
** Based on Goldwell research

With text becoming digital we'd think that libraries are suffering, if not dead already. But libraries—long known as reference and research centers—are reinventing themselves as places of 3D creativity. Libraries in Sacramento, Pittsburgh, Denver, Detroit and other cities across the US have purchased or are acquiring 3D printers and other maker tools for public use. In fact, one in six libraries in the US dedicate space to maker and DIY activity and learning, according the American Library Association.
Libraries had always served as a place for learning, research and discovery. And recently, since the financial crash in 2008, their reference materials have increasingly served as a way for people to figure out how to plan a new career or research new professional options. This then led to a rebirth of libraries as locations for entrepreneurship and business creativity. Librarians see this recent transformation as a natural extension of their historical 3000-year mission: to deliver and share information with the public.
About a third of the Chattanooga Public Library's reference material was sold to allow for a new maker lab. And apparently other libraries are going through similar renewal. The library of the University of Nevada cleared out more than 18,000 square feet of space for maker tools. And the star tool of choice is the 3D printer. Of course, they aren't cheap but the Institute of Museum and Library Services has granted $2.6 mil in printers and other tools.

David Ralston, a Republican from Blue Ridge, has been elected speaker of the Georgia House of Representatives.
The Monday after Christmas Dawson County Emergency Services opened a present it had been waiting on.
L. New Business from Thursday, Jan. 7, 2010 Agenda 1. Board Appointments: • Library Board • Planning Commission – Districts 2, 4 and Chairman 2. Reappointments of County Attorney, County Clerk, County Manager and Vice Chairman 3. Approval of the Courthouse Construction contract 4. Ratification of Agreement L. New Business for the Thursday, Jan. 14, 2010 Agenda 1. Approval of 2010 Mentoring Fiscal Agent Contract – Ms. Bindy Auvermann 2. Discussion of HVAC Bids – Public Works Director David Headley 3. Approval of 2010 Mileage Reimbursement Rate – County Manager Tanner 4. Howard Avenue Lease Agreement - County Manager Tanner 5. Discussion of Jail and Parking Lot ...
To save time and money, Dawsonville officials have moved city council meeting times up two hours, from 7 to 5 p.m., effective in February.
6 p.m. Thurday at city hall
The two new faces on the Dawsonville City Council may differ in age, ideas and background, but they share a common goal for their hometown.
Local lawmakers say North Georgia got an early Christmas present last week when David Ralston was named the next speaker of the state House of Representatives.
The local Humane Society must have a professional financial audit if it wants to receive funding from Dawson County, commissioners decided last week.
Sewer lines in the city of Dawsonville are in the process of having their life expectancy improved by about 50 years.
Last week, Etowah Water and Sewer Authority made several changes to rules which determine nomination and election of its board members.
Rep. David Ralston was chosen Thursday by Georgia Republicans to be the next speaker of the Georgia House of Representatives.
Employees with the Dawson County Sheriff's Office are expected to set positive examples not only in their community but also in their roles on the job.
It will be March at the earliest before Dawson County employees know whether they must continue taking so-called "days of rest" next year.
6 p.m. Thursday at city hall
Judging by the e-mails circulating among volunteers, the Dawson County Board of Commissioners should expect a fight when the local humane society's contract comes up for review Thursday.
The Dawson County commission is examining ways to reduce risks in liability involved with large public gatherings.
Lanier Swafford was recently named the state's top deputy coroner by the Georgia Coroner's Association.
A recent flurry of requests from Dawson County residents wanting to annex their property into Dawsonville has prompted officials to explore the possibility of a unified government.
Despite protests from Dawson County officials concerning recent annexation requests, Dawsonville continues to receive applications from people who want to live in the city limits.
The city of Dawsonville held a public hearing Monday night on a Dawson County-contested annexation of 37 acres on Duck Thurmond Road.
Commissioners last week voted to deny the application from a county resident that wants to annex his west side property in the city of Dawsonville.
At least six retail shops, including three restaurants, have contracts or commitments in place to be among the first to open in a new commercial development on Ga. 400.
A request to annex nearly 37 acres into Dawsonville has one Dawson County commissioner questioning the motives of city leaders.
Residents who wish to learn more about their county government and how it works for them are encouraged to register for the Citizens Government Academy.
The Georgia Municipal Association last week recognized local lawmaker Kevin Tanner with the group's 2014 Champion of Georgia's Cities award.

411Wrestling Special: 10 Ways To Save Wrestling - Part 3
Posted by
Michael Benjamin
on 10.15.2003
What else can be done to save wrestling? 411's Ken Anderson continues his acclaimed editorial...
NOTE: Part 1 of this special feature is available
! Part 2 is available
411Wrestling Special:
Part 3
Make thought-out, intelligent decisions on who to push, and DO IT.
One of the major problems in the WWE right now is the lack of true push that ANYONE is recieving. Wins and losses don't mean a damn thing anymore in the eyes of the casual fan. In the WWE, there's really no such thing as a true push.
Let's look at Chris Jericho for example. Over the last two years, Jericho has gotten the typical WWE push. He'll win a big match against a big opponent on RAW, only to have the match completely ignored the following week. Then, he'll lose his match and the person he beat the previous week will win theirs. No one gets anywhere in the process, and we start the whole inane cycle again the next week.
Vince is so concerned with upsetting his talent that he never truly pushes anyone. Everyone gets their big wins, everyone gets their big losses. It's a big endless cycle that does nothing but damage every single wrestler in the process. He didn't care about upsetting his talent in 1997, and he sure as hell shouldn't care now.
The WWE braintrust needs to sit down, decide who to push, and PUSH THEM. It won't do any good to give someone a half-ass push, where they win a big match here, get screwed over the next match, win with a weapon the following week, and so forth. They need to get behind someone, and have them win big-matches decisively on a regular basis until they're at the desired level. If their opponent is pissed about jobbing so decisively, so be it. They'll get over it. It's not like they have another option.
Clean jobs by upper-level stars are the only way anyone is going to become a true superstar. When it comes down to it, no one has jobbed to Van Dam, no one has jobbed to Booker T, and no one has jobbed to Eddie Guerrero. Unless that happens, the WWE is going to find itself in a very, very bad place when their current crop of main-eventers slowly retire one-by-one over the next year or two.
Listen to your Fanbase:
The single biggest mistake Vince McMahon has made over the last two years is his complete and total disregard of the will of his fanbase. At times, McMahon almost seems to have contempt for the paying customers who keep his company afloat.
Vince McMahon's business approach since the turn of the millennium has always seemed incredibly crooked. Instead of bending over backwards to please his audience, Vince has made a conscious effort to try to rape the hands that feed him over and over again.
"Bait and Switch" should be McMahon's official slogan, because over the last thirty months, McMahon has made promise after promise and broken almost every one of them, seemingly with a smile on his perverted, wrinkly old face.
Vince has all but ignored the wishes of his consumers, jobbing those that they cheer, and pushing those who they just don't care about to the top of the card.
Names like Rob Van Dam, Booker T, Eddie Guerrero, and Chris Jericho permanently remain opening acts while guys like A-Train, the Big Show, and Kane, three men who haven't drawn a legitimate dime in the last three years, headline each show.
You can hear a pin drop in the arena when Stephanie McMahon makes her entrance, yet she's involved in every major match on Smackdown. It's almost laughable when you really think about it.
Vince is so concerned with stroking his ego and masturbating over his power that he's digging his own company's grave.
There's absolute no excuse as to why Rob Van Dam hasn't won the WWE title yet. None. He's been the most consistently popular wrestler on RAW for the last two years, and he hasn't even headlined a PPV yet. It's ridiculous. Absolutely insane. If Vince McMahon is serious about bringing wrestling back into the mainstream radar, he needs to push the fucking wrestlers that the casual fans cheer. It's as easy as that.
The net needs to be ignored. We're cynics. All of us. Despite that cynicism, we'll always watch the product, despite our bitter, arm-swinging "I'll never watch again" gestures.
Vince needs to sit in the damn front row of a house show, RAW, Smackdown, or PPV, listen to the crowd, and push the wrestlers who get the loudest cheers. It's as simple as that. Those are the wrestlers who casual fans will be willing to pay money to see win. We're not talking rocket science here.
By continuing to do things his way and insisting of giving the majority of television time to heatless ogres, he's just
his own product.
Recombine the Raw and Smackdown Brands:
This necessity will in all likelihood be the most hotly debated, but in order for the WWE to survive, it's without a doubt the most important step that must be taken.
As things currently stand, both Raw and Smackdown have such shallow talent pools that they are both one or two injuries away from a total meltdown.
Triple H is the only full-time, well-established main event star currently on the RAW roster. Chris Jericho has yet to fully reach that level, thanks in large part to Triple H. The crowd loves Jericho, but he's just not at the level right now where he could carry the brand on his back.
Shawn Michaels and Bill Goldberg are both on the last legs of their careers. Michaels faces serious injury each time he steps into the ring, and with the risks he takes each time he steps between the ropes, it seems like it's only a matter of time before he's in a wheelchair. Bill Goldberg has made his general distaste for the WWE very vocal, and once his contract expires, there's very little chance he'll ever step foot in a WWE ring again.
Kevin Nash and Scott Steiner have both proved to be colossal letdowns. Neither has the in-ring aptitude necessary to be a main-event level star in the current day WWE, though it's somewhat inconsequential as both of their bodies are falling apart by the day.
Booker T is out indefinitely, and has made it well known that he will not be a wrestling 18 months from now.
A year from now, the RAW brand that can't even fill a three hour PPV when healthy faces the very real possibility of being without Shawn Michaels, Bill Goldberg, Kevin Nash, Scott Steiner, and Booker T.
If Triple H gets injured or requires time off, that leaves an unestablished Chris Jericho to carry the load entirely by himself, with no other stars on the horizon to share that burden with.
If Jericho were to go down too, RAW would be dead in the water. It's as simple as that.
On the Smackdown side, only three legitimate main-eventers exist: Kurt Angle, Brock Lesner, and The Undertaker.
The Taker's time is coming to an end, and if Brock Lesner missed a superplex on Kurt Angle and both injured themselves badly, the Smackdown brand would also be left without any true main-event level wrestlers.
The brand extension has served many practical purposes, but now is the time to think about ending it.
Many logistical problems have not been fully thought-out in regards to the brand extension. For example, what happens if a wrestler does manage to catch fire with mainstream America like the Rock did in '99. While it would boost ratings and attendance for that particular brand, there's no guarantee, and in all likelihood very little chance, that attendance and ratings would increase for the other brand as well. You might just end up in a situation where the hot streak of one brand is balanced out by the slump of another. Imagine how much less revenue the WWE would have brought in during 1999 if The Rock only wrestled on every other PPV. Imagine how much less advertising money would have come in if the Rock only appeared on half of your television shows.
The WWE has an opportunity in the next six months to a year to turn Smackdown vs. Raw into the biggest angle in wrestling history. If Vince waits much longer than that, he's faced with a situation much like the Invasion disaster, where half of the big name stars are either retired or crippled.
If Vince pulls the trigger on Smackdown vs. Raw immediately after Wrestlemania, he still has Shawn Michaels, Bill Goldberg, Ric Flair, Kevin Nash, The Undertaker, Kane, Steve Austin, Booker T, Scott Steiner, and a healthy Triple H, Kurt Angle, and Brock Lesner to make the angle massive.
If he waits much longer to instigate the feud, he could very well lose most of those names, blow one of the most profitable angles of all-time, and in the process, do irreparable damage to his company.
Several problems will need to be addressed in recombining the brands, but they can be easily managed if Vince and his creative staff carefully book for the highest long-term benefits.
The problem of overexposure will need to be addressed. Wrestlers will never wrestle or cut lengthy promos on more than one major show per week, and the champions will only fight on free television once or twice a month. The World Titles will be combined in an epic blowoff match, and some form of legitimacy will be restored to the company's World Champion. The IC, Cruiserweight, and Tag Titles will remain, everything else will go.
Smackdown also needs to be cut down to 90 minutes, with more of an emphasis on wrestling, and less of an emphasis on storyline development.
Despite all the hard work and effort that has gone into seperating the brands, for the long-term good of the WWE, they must be combined again. The longer Vince waits to take this drastic step, the smaller the window of opportunity grows to use the angle as a massive springboard back into the mainstream spotlight.

Title said it. This is taking stick fights to the next level. Really good control of the flow. I happened to watch the 2nd episode first and I thought "oh the 1st episode is going to be much more boring now that I watched the 2nd first". I was proven wrong. I liked it especially when everyone jumped on top of Mr. Red, I thought it was going to be another matrix spoof just blasting everyone away without much skill but it turned out a lot better than expected.
Can't wait to see the third.

Import to USA, A country that Imports far more than it Exports
Regardless of the newest financial statistics revealing that the United States is losing ground as the top global exporter. And, in spite of the reality that this quantity of goods that other nations import to USA exceeds more than it exports, and the truth that it faces competition from other countries for instance China, read more to understand why the United States of America nonetheless remains the largest economic system from the world.

...And the Apple & DEV game of cat and mouse in the unlocking process will continue.......(again)
With all the great new features "coming" to the next gen iPhone...there better be one heck of a battery on this thing...
apple would not pay for a chip with those capabilities if they had no intentin f use.
they woulda got a cheaper chip with only the features they wanted.
and an fm transceiver only needs to be there. its in the chip, so obviously its wired in. it would be stupid to put the chip in and not wire it.
Oh, and maybe I am just a downer but I can;t find myself getting excited over an FM tuner. HD radio? Now that's a different story...
Sounds like fun. :-)
Apple have just got you guys (and gals) addicted in a vicious cycle..
I held off until I got a seriously hacked iPHone 3G in China and it is MOST unlikely I will upgrade to get (maybe) FM radio, faster HSDPA (currently 2 megs in London so what is the point if the phone supports 7.2 megs when the network infrastructure is not there)..
They got you consumer hooked..
I am gonna wait until my iPhone cooks then (maybe) get a new one.
FM radio - buy a cheap radio HAH..
Battery - buy an external plug in battery - we all know current phones only last a day or two with present day battery technology .. It is gonna need a quantum jump (NOT iPHone OS 3.0) to change this..
Sorry if this sounds hostile but current iPhone is fine for me..
Don't get me wrong, I love my iPhone but do NOT want to upgrade it after 6 months or even a year..
It gives me phone calls and data on the go which is what I want..
Not that I think the next iPhone will support 7.2 mind you....
My TyTN 2 and Voda SIM support 7.2 but the most I ever get in London is around 2 meg.. Same on my iPhone..
Maybe at 3.45 AM you would get 7.2 meg but not in the normal working day, is the point I am making (high speed mobile broadband is pretty much in its infancy, thus support on the iPhone for 7.2 meg is not IMO a reason to rush out and buy a new one!!)
Cheers and Happy Easter..
If the phone only supports 3.6 you won't get 2Mb (or not normally) by increasing the supported speed to 7.2 you will get faster speeds.
But like I say, I don't believe it will happen.
it would be nice to listen to a local station on my iphone and also transmit to my radio via the iphone. can anyone help me, is there an app or program thru cydia that allow me to listen to music in my bluetooth headset. thanks

Make some noise - Krystal Meyers - Music Videos
13,577 views
Artist: Krystal Meyers
Song: Make some noise
Born July 31, 1988 (1988-07-31) (age 20)
Origin United States
Genre(s) Christian rock
Alternative rock
Occupation(s) singer/songwriter
Years active 2005-Present
Label(s) Essential Records
Website www.krystalmeyers.com
Krystal Meyers (born July 31, 1988) is an American Christian rock musician. She is the daughter of Rick Meyers, creator of the popular Bible study software e-Sword. She started writing songs by age 10 and was playing the acoustic guitar by 13, later releasing her self titled first album at age 16 in 2005. Her second album, Dying for a Heart, was released on September 19th, 2006. Her music combines hard-edged rock with smooth acoustic melodies. Krystal has gathered acclaim for her ability to move from quiet soft-rock songs to fast-paced rock and roll anthems without a hitch. Aside from positive Christian messages, her songs mainly focus on problems facing teens, such as peer pressure and pre-marital #$#$@.
In early June of 2008, the music video for "Make Some Noise", the first single from her third album, hit the internet. It shows a different direction in music, incorperating dance into her music. Her third album, also called Make Some Noise is expected to be released on September 9, 2008.
Make Some Noise
Meyers' third studio album is set to release on September 16, 2008 in the US and July 9, 2008 in Japan. The album is very different from her first two albums as she moves more into a pop dance realm with her songs. Krystal's lead single is called "Shine" and it so far has been charting well in the Christian CHR charts, as well as charting at #13 on the iTunes top Christian/Gospel songs chart. Other songs to be released in the album are "Make Some Noise," "Love It Away," and "My Freedom."

Watermains getting a good flush
The Regional District is about to begin its fall water main flushing program.
The work is scheduled to take place during November affecting customers of the Sunset Ranch water system. Environmental Services staff will be flushing mains between the hours of 8:00 am and 3:00 p.m., Monday through Friday.
Roadside notice boards are put up in advance of working in the system area. It's important to flush water mains on a regular basis to ensure optimum water quality and remove any sediment deposits that may accumulate over time.
"When flushing is taking place, water pressure can vary slightly and there may be some slight discoloration in the water. Please check your water prior to use. We recommend that you avoid doing laundry when flushing is taking place on your system. If you experience discoloration, run the cold water tap until the water runs clear," says RDCO Communications Director, Bruce Smith.
Customers will find more information and answers to questions they might have about the Regional District Water Main Flushing Program on the Water Systems webpage www.regionaldistrict.com/water.
In addition through the month of November, RDCO staff will be doing maintenance work on fire hydrants in the Killiney Beach and Westshore water system areas.
Customers on these two systems may experience minor short-term water quality and pressure changes while this hydrant work is underway.
As with overall system flushing, running the cold water tap will remove any discoloration.
The Regional District water systems service more than 900 customers in the following areas: Falcon Ridge, Killiney Beach, Sunset Ranch, Star Place/Trepanier, Westshore and Upper Fintry, Shalal Road and Valley of the Sun.

I was specifically addressing Nina's post about adds in heroic Yor'sahj. I would certainly not recommend that for blistering tentacles. Consecration, while a mana hog, at least ekes out a little more dps (no matter if single target or AoE) and you can recover lost mana fine with a couple of Judgements.
The sad fact is we have a lot of gaps in our rotation that there's almost always time for one of the lower priority items. Given that AoE's purpose is something that damages ALL targets, our only real options are SoR + Cons, DS, and HW (note I put that last). HW may divide the damage between all targets, but it HITS all targets and that's the value of it.
I don't claim to be an expert, but my ret pally is pretty consistently near the top of the charts for DPS, so take it for what it's worth I guess.
The only point of switching to an AoE rotation is to take adds down faster by increasing your effective dps against them. Using holy wrath ahead of any other ability will actually make them die slower, which is why EJ puts it last in the AoE rotation. Consecration is also very low damage; sure, you hit more guys, but to little effect, which is why it is second-last.
Divine Storm and seal of righteousness really are the be-all and end-all of our AoE dps and, as EJ again points out, using righteousness has to be weighed against the dps loss from seal switching back and forth. In the vast majority of situations, our AoE rotation simply consists of substituting DS for CS, and remembering not to waste Zealotry while doing so.
For Yor'Sahj's black phase, I don't switch seals because there is no break in which I can do so without giving up 2 GCDs, and I don't think the adds live long enough to justify the switch, but I have to admit I haven't mathed it out. I may be wrong.
jazz.panther said...
I didn't really write my first posts with complete priority in mind, and that was probably my biggest mistake. :) Perhaps a more detailed rotation would be:
DS, Judge, DS, Cons, DS, HW/Exo/Inq/whatever, DS, Judge, etc.
Now you've piqued my interest! I want to find out exactly how long an add phase must last, vs. how many adds there would need to be, to determine if/when SoR results in an increase of DPS over SoT. Sounds like a trip to Elitist Jerks for me.

"I'm excited as anyone else can be for the new Reboot reboot. The main appeal of the show was "we made this thing with computers" which was the most revolutionary, mind exploding thing possible. The imagery was all over the place, since they had to work with designs that they could actually create with the technology at the time, cubes, orbs, lumps and robots all interacting with blue-skinned mannequin avatars. The other thing is just how DARK the show became, there were wars, mutilation, death and spiritual rebirth, all the while a new game would drop down and now they have to be ninjas. Basically, it felt like they just gave IT department some bad acid and told them to make a cartoon. Looking back on it, it was probably the most surreal saturday morning cartoon ever made. I can't wait to binge watch it online at 3am." Original idea by @bestjakeyoung

Talking to Your Children About Alcohol
April is Alcohol Awareness Month. Drinking too much alcohol increases people's risk of health-related injuries, violence, drowning, liver disease and some types of cancer.
Drinking can often start at a young age (40 percent try it by 8th grade), and while talking to children and teens about the dangers of alcohol can be potentially awkward or uncomfortable, it's a crucial conversation to have.
It's never too early to open lines of communication with your child, explaining the risks of alcohol use and expressing a consistent message that underage drinking is unacceptable and illegal.
Preventing underage drinking takes more than a single conversation. Being a good role model to your child helps them more than anything else.
For tips on what to say to your child, what you need to do with them, and resources on getting them help, you can download this guide.

Ron Elder is very good as A Roadie who gets fired from his dream job working for the amazing Blue Oyster Cult. The acting is good the story is kind of sad. But the music of Blue Oyster Cult is fantastic. And not just the typical radio fare of Burning for You, Godzilla, and Don\'t Fear the Reaper. There is Buck\'s Boogie with guitar genius Buck Dharma jamming lilke crazy, You have Cities on Flame with Rock and Roll, The Red and The Black and Last 30 Days of May.

Warrior here, I'm not worried, I get the "not enough rage" message alot now.. so I don't really care about them lowering it a little bit.. Will just have to pick and choose which attacks I use more carefully. As it is now I've been the top of killing blows in AV/WSG/AB a ton, so I look at it as a challenge. I hear alot of Warriors crying nerf.. but they also seam to think that Blizzard has a vendetta against them.

Update on Elia's PT appt: (and sad woe-is-me rant)
So Elia's appt in general went well. The physical therapist was happy with her standing, sitting, and rolling over, and as I expected wants to see her again in six weeks to ensure progress is continuing. One thing really bothered me though... an Occupational Therapist came in at one point to offer advice on Elia's hand skills (which to be honest, I don't think she needs, she reaches, grabs, and feeds herself with the best of them). The OT made an almost offhanded comment about how OTs and PTs don't diagnose, they just work with the symptoms and it's just been eating at me ever since we left. I don't know if I interpreted her statement wrong, but I felt like she was suggesting Elia should be evaluated and/or diagnosed with something (of course, of course, my horrible brain worries about cerebral palsy. how could it not? She has practically all the risk factors you guys, she was born early, needed breathing assistance, was a twin, I was on magnesium sulfate and had preeclampsia... they are all risk factors). I usually am able to not let it bother me, even if she has CP I think it would be pretty mild considering the progress and strength she has already (and the PT flat out said she has fine muscle tone, is neither too floppy or too tight). I dunno, it's just when I start thinking about it, it really tears me up. Good thing the girls are both taking a nap now, I need a good cry.

Sarah- I think I would go crazy without my kindle!I still end up buying some paperbacks which haven't been released as ebooks yet but otherwise I LOVE reading a review for a book which sounds interesting, buying it, and reading it 30 seconds later.
AFM: I'm going to a wellness and gourmet hotel tonight for a night alone. I've wanted to do this since Teddy was born and now it fit so I am. Some friends and I are thinking about going there for a wellness weekend or day so I am partially using that as an excuse to test it out, but mainly I am just looking forward to reading my book, eating a nice 3 course meal while reading my book, going for a swim and in the sauna, going to sleep and sleeping in , and then enjoying a nice leisurely breakfast by myself!!
It is funny I have never done something like this before and I am kind of nervous but I think I am really going to enjoy myself. I mean it isn't like I don't get breaks, we go out a lot and have babysitters, or I go out with friends, or when we visit my mom etc but still to do something nice just for myself will be something special.

Arc will explore the future through cutting-edge science fiction and forward-looking essays by some of the world's most celebrated authors – backed up with columns by thinkers and practitioners from the worlds of books, design, gaming, film and more.
Arc 1.1 is edited by Simon Ings, author of acclaimed genre-spanning novels The Weight of Numbers and Dead Water. Simon, who made his name with a trio of ground-breaking cyberpunk novels, is a frequent commentator on science, science fiction and all points in between.
"Arc is an experiment in how we talk about the future," Simon explains. "We wanted to get past sterile 'visions' and dream up futures that evoke textures and flavours and passions." The response, he says, has been amazing. "I feel like the dog that caught the car," he says. "The appetite to be part of this project has been huge. Writers have seized the opportunity to showcase their thoughts, their dreams, their anxieties and their opinions about our future."
For New Scientist editor Sumit Paul-Choudhury, Arc is an opportunity to explore new territory. "We've known for many years that our readers are fascinated by the future and all the possibilities it raises. But as a magazine of science fact, we can't indulge that fascination very often," he explains. "Arc will explore the endless vistas opened up by today's science and technology. While it's a very different venture from New Scientist, it will share its unique combination of intelligence, wit and charm."
John MacFarlane, Online Publisher of New Scientist, says "I am thrilled to be involved in the launch of this new title. The combination of superb content and an innovative digital publishing model make for a very exciting project and I am sure a broad range of readers will love Arc."
Arc 1.1 will be available from mid-February 2012 on iPad, Kindle and as a limited print edition.
This sounds interesting. Although science fiction authors might not be the best sources for actually predicting the future, they certain can write about it well.

- Tim De Chent, If the world's population lived in one city… via Per Square Mile
So, if we can move past the haphazard historical, cultural, and biological reasons that people live where they currently are, we could pick a few hundred places in the world where there are good reasons to live, and move all the people to those places. Places with reliable water, equitable climates, available farmland. And then we can rewild the rest of the world.
The advanced industrial nations will not be re-jiggered onto any "growth" runway. Rather, we're entering the rutted wagon-road of de-industrializing and un-advancing. What awaits us in a "time-out" from hyperbolic technological progress. Forget about Ray Kurzweil's nanobot nirvana. That is not in the cards. Instead, wrap your mind around life in an economy organized around farming, with a much sparser distribution of big urban centers, and far fewer people overall. Don't imagine for a moment that your grandchildren will be zinging across the landscape in electric cars sampling one theme park after another while "networking" with "friends" on cyborg social networks implanted in their brain jellies. Think of them grooming their mules in the summer twilight. Anyway, you get the picture: everything that the finance ministries and treasuries and central banks are affecting to do is mere shadow theater performed in support of wishful thinking.
The question, then, is what kind of hardship and disorder will attend our journey out of the industrial era into post-technological age we are entering. Will we just turn the world into a Michael Bay movie and blow everything up? Or will we make some graceful descent and retain what is really best about the human spirit?

Kunsler goes on to make prescient comments about likely conflagration in West Asia (aka the Middle East) with growing tension between Iran and Turkey, the two toughest kids in the school yard; North Africa; and between India and Pakistan. The water wars are coming, although Kunsler doesn't use the term.

Airport Development Plan four-year process. There will be multiple opportunities
for public input during the planning process and the formal environmental review.
The Airport Development Plan (ADP) is the next master-planning phase for San Diego
International Airport. The ADP is designed to identify improvements that will enable the
airport to meet demand through 2035.
The Airport Authority will share several concepts as thought-starters and request public input.
These initial concepts are just a starting point – the first step in a long, comprehensive planning
process. Airport sta will then formulate a preferred alternative for the Airport Authority Board's
consideration. After a preferred alternative is identified, a detailed environmental analysis will
be conducted. It is expected that the entire process will conclude in spring 2016.
If you are interested in inviting an Airport Authority representative to make a
presentation about the Airport Development Plan to a group that you're involved
with, please contact Peggy Cooper at 619-400-2470 or

Book Review
Genre: Mystery/Suspense/Thriller, Mystery, Historical, Private Investigator
2010 Historical Mystery Nominee
In this terrific book, Stanley puts all the right elements together to make the first in her new series a winner. Center stage is private investigator Miranda Corbie, a feisty gal with tons of attitude. She might be hard-boiled on the outside, but you never forget she's a lady. The noir atmosphere of 1940s San Francisco is so brilliantly recreated you'll swear you can hear the music, taste the food and feel the desperation of many that Miranda comes in contact with. Stanley sharpens anticipation for what comes next.
While San Francisco's Chinatown is celebrating the Chinese New Year in 1940 with a Rice Bowl Party, a three-day-and-night carnival to raise money and support for China war relief, Miranda Corbie, a 33-year-old P.I., Spanish Civil War nurse and ex-escort just hopes to make it home safely. Instead, she stumbles upon the fatally shot body of Eddie Takahashi.
The Chamber of Commerce wants the murder covered up, and the police give in a bit too easily for Miranda's taste. She wants to solve the crime and see that justice is served -- no matter what the cost. (MINOTAUR, Feb., 352 pp., $24.99)

How To: Green Your Refrigerator
It's no secret: Refrigerators and freezers burn through a lot of energy. But, for most of us (excluding No Impact Man), unplugging them is not an option. So, the next best idea? Green your fridge.
Grist has a great article up on how to green your fridge.
The tips range from stocking eco-conscious beer to buying Energy Star.
Read the whole article here.

The article was interesting but I was surprised not to see a recommendation to keep your fridge and freezer full for maximum efficiency. Maybe that isn't true? I've heard it many times, but I am not good at following the advice.
I'm also not so sure about buying a new one to replace the old. Mine is about 11 years old, and I know I could buy a more efficient one but does that balance the resources used to make the new one, not to mention the one I disposed of (even in the most responsible way possible)?

Last Updated: October 9, 2013 • Posted in Calendar Effects, Technical Trading
Several readers have inquired about the performance of Sy Harding's Street Smart Report Online, which includes the Seasonal Timing Strategy. This strategy combines "the market's best average calendar entry [October 16] and exit [April 20] days with a technical indicator, the Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD)." According to Street Smart Report Online, applying this strategy to a Dow Jones Industrial Average (DJIA) index fund generated a cumulative return of 213% during 1999 through 2012, compared to 93% for the DJIA itself. As a robustness test, we apply this strategy to the SPDR S&P 500 (SPY) exchange-traded fund since its inception. Using daily dividend-adjusted closing prices for SPY and daily 13-week Treasury bill (T-bill) yields during 1/29/93 (inception of SPY) through 9/30/13, we find that:
Calculations/assumptions used to test the Seasonal Timing Strategy are:
The following table compares average daily gross returns and standard deviations of daily returns over the entire sample period for:
Daily returns for buying and holding SPY are the highest, but also the most volatile. MACD adjustments are slightly harmful compared to a simple seasonal only strategy.
How do the daily returns translate into cumulative results?
The following chart compares the gross (frictionless) cumulative returns over the entire sample period for the same three strategies. Terminal values are $561,156, $479,770 and $508,057 for SPY, Seasonal-MACD and Seasonal Only, respectively. The cumulative return for buying and holding SPY is the highest most of the time, but also the most volatile. MACD adjustments are somewhat disadvantageous compared to a seasonal only strategy. Notable points are:
How do the three strategies compare on an annual return basis?
The next chart shows gross annual returns over the entire sample period for buying and holding SPY, Seasonal-MACD and Seasonal Only. Years 1993 and 2012 are partial only. Average gross annual returns (including 1993 and 201) are 10.3% for buying and holding SPY, 8.2% for Seasonal-MACD and 8.6% for Seasonal Only. The respective standard deviations of annual returns are 18.7%, 10.2% and 11.3%. Seasonal-MACD (Seasonal Only) beats buy-and-hold in 7 (9) of 21 years, again indicating that the MACD refinement does not add value.
For clarity, we calculate Seasonal-MACD returns relative to buy-and-hold by year.
The next chart shows the difference in gross annual returns between Seasonal-MACD and buy-and-hold. As noted, 7 of 21 years have positive abnormal returns. On average, Seasonal-MACD underperforms buy-and-hold by 2.1% per year. No trend is evident. Using 1999 as a starting point, as done at Street Smart Report Online, is very advantageous to the Seasonal Timing Strategy.
Are trading frictions material?
The final chart summarizes the effect of trading frictions, ranging from 0.05% to 0.50% per one-way trade, on the terminal values of $100,000 investments per the first chart above. The underperformance of the timing strategies is materially more severe for small investors, who generally bear relatively high frictions, than large investors.
In summary, evidence from simple tests on available data for SPY does not support clear belief that Sy Harding's Seasonal Timing Strategy is superior to a buy-and-hold strategy, or that the MACD signal refinement improves seasonal entry and exit.
Cautions regarding findings include:
Independently, Peter Brimelow and Mark Hulbert report in MarketWatch columns of…
…10/4/13 that "a hypothetical portfolio that, using Harding's method, switched between the Wilshire 5000 index, which reflects the performance of the entire U.S. stock market, and 90-day Treasury bills…would have gained 8.5% annualized over the past 12 years, according to the Hulbert Financial Digest, assuming dividends were reinvested. That is better than the 6.9% annualized produced by the original, unmodified version of the Halloween Indicator, which in turn is better than the 6.2% return of simply buying and holding the stock market. Better yet, Harding's portfolio was completely out of the market half the time, so it incurred only half the risk. That is a winning combination."
…10/5/12 that from the end of May 2002 through September 2012 "the Sy Harding service has significantly improved on the Halloween Indicator, which itself is significantly ahead of a buy-and-hold."
…4/2/12 that "since mid-2002, a buy-and-hold has produced a 5.4% annualized return. A purely mechanical application of the Halloween Indicator (automatically entering the market on Halloween and exiting on May Day) would have produced a 7.0% annualized return. Harding's modification of the Halloween Indicator produced a 9.0% return (annualized) over the same period, or 2.0 percentage points per year more than a purely mechanical application of this seasonal pattern, and 3.6 percentage points ahead of a buy-and-hold. This is good enough to place Harding's version of the Halloween Indicator in 4th place for performance since mid 2002, out of the 122 timing strategies the Hulbert Financial Digest has tracked over this period."
…12/26/11 that Sy Harding's Street Smart Report (6.5%) is one of the best-performing newsletters for 2011 [8th place] among those tracked by Hulbert Financial Digest. However: "Harding, a market timer who uses fundamental and technical methods…has a long record. The problem: It's terrible. By HFD count, he's down 6.03% annualized over the last three years vs. a gain of 15.24% for the dividend-reinvested Wilshire."
…12/23/10 that Sy Harding's Street Smart Report (-13.8%) is one of the worst-performing newsletters for 2010 among those tracked by Hulbert Financial Digest.
…12/24/09 that Sy Harding's Street Smart Report (-12.5%) is one of the worst-performing newsletters for 2009 among those tracked by Hulbert Financial Digest.
…11/5/08 that "Over the year to date through October, Street Smart Report is up 3.6% by Hulbert Financial Digest count, vs. negative 32.9% for the dividend-reinvested Dow Jones Wilshire 5000. Over the past 12 months, the letter is up 5.26% vs. negative 36.31% for the total return DJ-Wilshire 5000. Over the past five years, the letter has achieved an annualized gain of 3.18%, vs. 0.78% annualized for the total return DJ-W 5000."

SACRAMENTO, Calif. -- Canada played to expectation up until halftime. After that the game belonged to the upstart Americans.
Brett Thompson scored a try in the 68th minute and Chris Wyles got a successful conversion to lead the United States to a 38-35 comeback win over Canada on Saturday in a Pacific Nations Cup men's rugby match at Bonney Field.
It was the first time the U.S. had beaten Canada since 2009.
Canada, which led by 10 at halftime, tried in desperation to get a try in the last two minutes of the contest, but the U.S. defence met them at every turn.
"I think we were doing well up until then, but then we started playing poorly," said Canada's coach Kiernan Crowley. "We didn't make any tackles and you can't afford to do that and we can't afford to give away the amount of penalties that we gave away. It was just a pretty poor performance by us."
Harry Jones led Canada with two tries, while Aaron Carpenter, James Pritchard and Ciaran Hearn each scored one. Pritchard added four conversions.
Blaine Scully led the Americans with two tries. Danny Barrett, Wyles and Thompson scored the others. The U.S. made three conversions and Wyles had four off of penalties.
The U.S. jumped out to an early 3-0 lead in the first half with a penalty kick from Wyles, and he added another moments later to make it 6-0 when Canadian scrum half Phil Mack was issued a yellow card.
But Canada came back to lead 7-6 on a try from Jones and a conversion from Pritchard. Canada scored twice before the end of the first half and led with a 28-18 margin.
Carpenter drove over the line with a powerful pick-and-go to bring the game to 18-14 before Pritchard dove on a DTH van der Merwe chip kick for Canada's second score before halftime.
"They were scoring off our mistakes," said U.S. centre Folau Niua. "They attacked us really well on turnovers. But what I like is that we didn't panic. Our captain gave us a few words and that was to play together."
Canada picked up where it left off, striking early on Jones' second try of the night for a 35-18 lead at the 43rd minute of the second half.
The Americans mounted their comeback by scoring the next 10 points before retaking the lead.
Both teams played with intensity around the goal-line in the last two minutes of the match. But it was the U.S. defence that conquered the moment, which ended with Scully recovering a turnover and Niua kicking the ball out of play to end Canada's effort.
"We weren't clinical enough, it's as simple as that," said Pritchard. "We gave away too much ball, weren't strong in the tackle areas and our tackling was weak. There was a second-place finish in the PNC up-for-grabs and there were times throughout the game that we could have put them away and in front of their home crowd they fought back."
Attendance at Bonney Field was sold out at 7,804 spectators.

The Phillips Collection is a small museum in Washington D.C. According to the about page on the museums website it, "Paintings by Renoir and Rothko, Bonnard and O'Keeffe, van Gogh and Diebenkorn are among the many stunning impressionist and modern works that fill the museum's distinctive building, which combines extensive new galleries with the family home of its founder, Duncan Phillips."
The Museum also houses a Rothko Room so now there is no need to travel all the way to Tate in London to view some of Rothko's paintings in an intimate setting.
"Created in 1960 by Duncan Phillips, the chapel-like Rothko Room was relocated within the museum in 2006, but remains essentially unchanged in scale and character. The room, which holds four paintings by Mark Rothko, is relatively small, reflecting Rothko's preference for exhibiting his art "in a scale of normal living." Rothko himself took a close interest in the room, which inspired similar Rothko installations elsewhere. On one visit in 1961 when Duncan Phillips was away, he asked the museum staff to make several small adjustments to the space. Phillips immediately noticed—and reversed—the changes when he returned. He did agree, however, to limit the seating in the room to a single bench, a decision that is still honored today"

We had a fruit fly invasion this week at the office. And it was maddening. One Stir staffer spent the day with a squirt bottle of soapy water, shooting it every time anything flew near her. No doubt about it, those little bugs are annoying. How do you get rid of them -- without setting off a toxic bomb of bug spray everywhere?
There's that trick of putting vinegar or something sweet in a jar and covering it with punctured plastic wrap, but that didn't do the trick for me last time I got an invasion. So I'm looking for other non-toxic, DIY fruit fly traps.
Soda Bottle Trap
Alternatively, you can curl a piece of paper into a funnel and insert that, point down, instead of the inverted bottle top.
Fruit flies can't handle the smoke. Rather than set your kitchen on fire (in a fury, we understand...) light some incense -- a handful of sticks, maybe more than you'd ordinarily use at once.
1. Combine 1 pint of milk, 1/4 pound of sugar, and 2 ounces ground pepper in a saucepan. Simmer for 10 minutes.
2. Pour liquid into small, shallow bowls in affected areas. Collect bowls after fruit flies fall in and drown.
Destroy Breeding Grounds
Once you've killed off the fruit flies you could see, clean areas where they were breeding with bleach (your fruit bowl, for instance). Fruit flies often breed inside drains and garbage disposals, so pour some bleach down the sink as well.
How do you kill off fruit flies?

Fruit flies have invaded my pantry!! Turns out it was the potatoes on the floor we had forgotten about (ugh!) so I might just try the incense stick to see if I can lure them to the bottom of the pantry where a tasty little apple cider vinegar death awaits them.
The saran wrap trick works best for me when we get a bunch. Burning a big candle next to me while I eat or sip coffee/tea also helps keep them from dive bombing my drinks.

Warren Buffett is hardly the stereotypical newspaper tycoon. He's never said anything crazy like, "You provide the pictures, and I'll provide the war." He's never tried to pass off the New York Post or Fox News as credible journalism. He never bought MySpace.
So, when we find The Washington Post–where Buffett's majority shareholder–covering his very public proclamation that newspapers are a bad investment, one has to wonder: are traditional publishers reaching a breaking point or a tipping point?
When Charlie [Munger, Berkshire Hathaway's vice chairman] and I were young, the newspaper business was as easy a way to make huge returns as existed in America," Buffett wrote in the letter, which was released Thursday.
…In today's economy, Buffett wrote: "Simply put, if cable and satellite broadcasting, as well as the Internet, had come along first, newspapers as we know them probably would never have existed."
Not exactly what you'd call "irrational exuberance," is it? What now of the Post's "follow the money" credo? Forget following the money; the Post will be lucky if Buffett bothers to help them find it–and he always does.
How fitting, then, that the other big newspapers news this week came from USA Today, whose social media-driven redesign launch broke the first rule of journalism: it became the news. Or has journalism–that quaint pursuit of factual, topical, news-related storytelling–been so worn down by new media that "become the news" has itself become the first rule of Whateverism 2.0? (And, please, folks, don't use that one until, at the very least, it's properly anointed by Stephen Colbert. See also: "Truthiness")
Lately, we've written about how new media is changing the rules of book publishing and online publishing. But will USA Today create a community worth having you as a member? And if they'll have you, is it worth joining such a club, anyway? (If you think so, you might want to first check out their privacy policy. "How is this information used?" may be of interest.)
Long before YouTube and Paris Hilton, Andy Warhol predicted that, one day, everyone would enjoy 15 minutes of fame. Maybe it's time we all fully grokked this statement for what it's become: our era's most profound inside joke.
Laugh it up, Andy… Laugh it up.
News Publishers Getting a Run for Their Money…
Rolling through my daily reads I came upon a post by Robert Gorell of FutureNow. Newspapers, as I've been discussing lately, seem to be leaning toward increasingly irrelevant forms of getting news. Robert brings up an interesting point concerning publ…
