Greetings from Poosey.
A strange creature, the blowfish. When he wants to terrorize his fellow fish he gulps down water to make himself look threatening, then expands his appearance to three times his actual size. In other words, he's two-thirds fake fish.
Maybe it's been the heat of this early summer, but I've been giving a great deal of thought to blowfish in recent days. Herb

TV sound system creates a loud spot in the room for people with hearing loss
It's a classic situation ... a family is watching TV, but in order for the grandparents to be able to hear it, the volume is turned up too loud for everyone else's liking. A PhD student from the University of Southampton, however, might have a solution. Marcos Simón has developed a speaker system that projects high-volume audio to just one spot in the room.
Simón's system is designed to compensate for the hearing loss typically experienced by 70 year-old individuals.

More InformationIt consists of an array of eight acoustical radiators (loudspeakers, essentially) arranged in a line, which work together to focus a "hot spot" of sound to a specific area. In tests of the array, it boosted partially-deaf listeners' ability to make out played-back human speech by about 30 percent. Non-deaf test subjects who were seated nearby but not in the hot spot, meanwhile, heard the same speech at a comfortable volume.
Simón notes that while other "line arrays" have been studied previously, they've required a second set of acoustic radiators in the rear, to cancel out stray sound waves that were emitted from the back of the primary set. This would make the technology fairly impractical to commercialize.
By contrast, the radiators used in his array are specifically designed not to require such a setup.

Excellent food, and the chef grows many of the peppers and produce himself. Great for business lunch or dinner. The crispy basil chicken is excellent.
On our way up to a rented house for the Xmas weekend, we stopped off Arun Thai for a quick lunch. Prices were pretty steep ($12 for a cup of soup), so we split a lunch special Trout salad.

Eight in our party. We selected a wide range of entrees (to share) and all were cooked to perfection. Reserved table was ready when we arrived. Courteous and accommodating staff.
This was my forth visit to Arun Thai this year and once again I wasn't disappointed. Everything I've sampled from the menu so far has met expectations. The level of spice is just right for me, and the beer and wine selections are perfect.
My family loves this restaurant, it's our first choice for any special occasion, and I have never been disappointed by anything I've ordered here. The service and atmosphere are warm and friendly. You must try to the pumpkin red curry.
Love this little restaurant. Great ambiance, traditional Thai decor. Food and service are fantastic. The Thai curries are superb. Try the duck curry.
I love this place. It's tiny and quaint with a very pleasant ambiance. Everything on the menu is amazing. I love the pad Thai and the yellow curry. Be sure to order the Thai shrimp roll as an appetizer. You won't be disappointed.

A Toshiba laptop that can no longer connect to a network or the Internet may have a problem with the wireless network adaptor. In most Toshiba laptops, the wireless adaptor is readily accessible from the bottom of the laptop. However, all Toshiba laptops are slightly different, so refer to the owner's manual for instructions before proceeding. This guide is structured around a Toshiba Satellite A35 model, but it will apply to most Toshiba laptops. Only the location of the wireless adaptor will change.
- Skill level:
- Easy
Other People Are Reading
Things you need
- Phillips-head screwdriver
- Electrostatic discharge strap
Show More
- 1
Disconnect the power cable from the laptop, as well as any peripherals like a monitor or printer that may be attached. Lay the laptop face down on a table and remove the battery. The battery usually is toward the back of the laptop base. Slide the locking switch to the unlocked position and pull the battery out.
- 2
Attach an electrostatic discharge strap to your wrist. Connect the other end to something metal to keep yourself grounded and minimise static electricity.
- 3
Locate and remove the wireless adaptor cover. The wireless adaptor cover typically is just to the side of the centre of the laptop base. On the A35 it is on the left side of the laptop base, next to the memory module cover. Remove the screws holding the wireless adaptor cover down and lift the cover off the laptop base. This reveals the adaptor.
- 4
Disconnect the antenna wires from the adaptor. There are two antenna wires running from the motherboard to the wireless adaptor. Grasp the connectors on the wires and gently unsnap them from the adaptor.
- 5
Spread the levers on each side of the wireless adaptor card. This will cause the wireless adaptor card to pop up. Grab the adaptor card on each side and gently slide it out of the slot.
- 6
Slide the new wireless adaptor into the adaptor slot. Slide it all the way in, then gently press down until the levers click into place.
- 7
Reconnect the antenna wires. On your adaptor each plug will be labelled. Connect the white wire to the plug labelled "Main" and the black wire to the plug labelled "Aux."
- 8
Replace the adaptor cover and battery and turn on the laptop.
Tips and warnings
- Never work on a laptop without an electrostatic discharge strap. Static electricity can damage your laptop.
- Make sure to buy a replacement adaptor that is compatible with your Toshiba model. Refer to the specifications for your specific model to determine which adaptor to buy.

A Very American Coup By Michael – Louis Ingram, Editor-in-Chief...
Cliff Floyd NEW YORK
"I'd go to other towns and neighborhoods and say, 'Wow, I wish one day I could play on something nice like this field,"' said Floyd, a Met. "We'd go play baseball in those neighborhoods at 7 at night. We couldn't do that in mine. You don't play at 7 at night in the 'hood, you know what I'm saying? It wouldn't be good.
"Our concession stand got broken into every night. We could never get enough kids to go play. We'd have to forfeit games because kids didn't show up. When they did show up, they'd be mad we lost. I was like, 'Well, y'all never come to practice.' "It was never anything to look forward to. Let's face it: I don't care who you are, you still know nice things and you still know what's good for you. Having your own bat, shoes and uniform would make anybody happy."
There are only a handful of black major leaguers who are originally from the area, including the Cubs' Jerry Hairston of Naperville and St. Louis' Ray King and Kansas City's Emil Brown, both from Chicago. It's a sad commentary on the state of baseball in the African-American community, but no sadder than looking in the stands during a major-league ballgame and seeing very few blacks in attendance.
Somehow, baseball has lost its way with African-Americans, and it's a shame. There have been so many good players, first in the Negro leagues and then in the big leagues after Jackie Robinson broke the color barrier. Now only 9 percent of the players in the majors are black.
There are any number of theories about why this is, but baseball has missed out on a generation of talented black athletes who prefer basketball and see more opportunity in it, even though the odds of making the NBA are astronomical.
Major League Baseball is trying to make up for lost time with programs aimed at regrowing the sport in the inner city, but it's slow going. It will take people like Floyd to help change the mind-set in the black community.
"I live in Florida now in the off-season," said Floyd, who homered in the Mets' 6-1 victory over the Cubs. "I have this discussion with my family all the time, and I say it's not right for me to help in Florida. It's not that I don't want to. But I'm from Chicago. That's my roots. Those are the kids I know. That's the area I grew up in.
"I keep saying to myself, 'One day. One day."' One day, when his career is over, he plans to move back to the Chicago area with his family. He doesn't know how he wants to help revive baseball in his old neighborhood, only that he's determined to do it.
"You don't have to start a whole Little League and have 12 teams playing on Saturdays," said Floyd, 32. "You can have a traveling team. You can have one good team with a good coach. I want kids to understand you can be from the 'hood and still have nice things—uniforms, gloves. But we're going to have discipline. We're going to have respect.
"You don't know what might happen. Kids might see other kids playing and be attracted to the game. If I get one guy to come out of it with something positive and keep him off the streets, then that's going to help."
Floyd was a baseball and basketball star at Thornwood and was the Tribune's High School Athlete of the Year in 1991. Montreal made him a first-round pick that year. It almost sounds simple, but Floyd had to get comfortable with the idea of being a ballplayer. This is what the sport is up against.
"When I was younger, I kept saying to myself, 'I really don't want to play baseball.' Basketball, I loved it. We'd go into the city, people dunking, stands packed, nice uniforms. But then as I got more involved in baseball and started traveling a bit, I saw that there was a lot more going on with baseball than African-Americans saw."
One kid at a time. One future ballplayer at a time. One heart at a time.
When he goes back to Markham, he doesn't see kids playing baseball. He isn't sure whether a class of grade-school children there would be impressed that he's a major-league ballplayer.
"Hopefully they would be because one day it might be them," he said.

So far, so good...
By Jennifer in Alpine, CA on 07/16/2012
Verified PurchaseFirst off, i had a rattlesnake slither in my house and OVER MY FEET when letting my dogs out one night. I was looking for a product that would be beneficial when combined with other factors. This is easy to pour out and each bottle covers a good area. The smell is extremely pleasant. We combined it with more chicken wire around our picket fence and so far so good. I will be buying more to ensure that we keep in nice and layered throughout the summer.

QIs Snake Out Snake Repellant affected by rain, and how long will it last?
A Snake Out Snake Repellant is affected and would need to be reapplied after a heavy rain. The product label does state that you should reapply every 2 to 4 weeks for best results.
09/03/2012 Varsha from Ga
QWhat does snake out repel? does it work with poisonous snakes such as copperheads, rattlesnakes, etc
ASnake Out will help to repel just about any kind of snake. Having said this you should realize that a very hungry or scared snake will suffer the discomfort and slither over the repellent if absolutely necessary. Snake Out should be used as part of a snake control program, not as the only control method. If you are having a snake problem on your property you most likely are having a rodent problem nearby. You can help to make your property less favorable to snakes by getting rid of any rodents. You can do this by utilizing tamper resistant bait stations loaded with a high quality rodenticide. We have several rodent bait kits which may fit your needs. Snakes will naturally go to better hunting grounds if they can not find a food source. Please let us know if you have any questions.

QWill dogs cross the barrier?
We have "doggie doors" to allow our dogs access to the outside (2 of them: one on our front door, leading to a screen porch, and the other from the screen porch to the backyard). I woke up yesterday after a nightmare about snakes freaking out that snakes could get in the dog doors. But -- if I put a barrier of Snake Out outside the exterior dog door -- will my DOGS be hesitant to cross that barrier, too (because of the smell) ?
AMost pets would be repelled by Snake Away in addition to snakes. That being said, it can be harmful to pets if consumed. You should do what you can to keep children and pets away as much as possible from the product.

QCan Snake Out Snake Repellent be used on the inside of a home?
A Snake Out Snake Repellent is meant for use outside around the home, since the snakes natural environment is outside. The product does not say you cannot use the product inside, however this product has a strong odor, and is meant for use outside. The smell may become too strong for in the house, so we would advise placing the product inside something first to easily remove it if the smell is too strong.
03/05/2011 Liz
QDoes the Snake Out Snake Repellent have to be mixed with water? Is it a dry or liquid form?
ASnake Out Snake Repellent is a dry granule that comes ready to use, no mixing, measuring or diluting is required. On just about every individual product page on our site you can click on the product label link under the picture of the product and you can read the application instructions for that product.
05/25/2012 Julie from Jameson, Mo
QIs Snake Out Snake Repellent safe for vegetable gardens?
ASnake Out can be used in a vegetable garden. There is no pre-harvest interval that needs to be observed.
04/10/2012 Gayle from Hendersonville, Nc
QWe have a water snake in our very small pond with a couple of fish. Is "Snake Out" safe to use around water?
AThe Snake Out product label recommends that you don't apply the product directly to the water but you can use it near the pond as long as the granules are not spilling into the water.
05/13/2013 Rodney from Newport News Virginia
QWill Snake Out kill or get rid of lizards and geckos?
ASnake Out Snake Repellent is only designed to repel snakes. The best way to eradicate Lizards and Geckos is to take away their food source. We recommend treating for flies and crawling insects. Talstar P is great product to use, both indoors and out. Talstar is odorless, dries clear, and the best part about this product is that it will treat over 75 different pest.
04/04/2013 Rao from Kansas City
QHow do you apply Snake Out around the perimeter of the house outside?
AUsing the convenient dispenser cap on this package, lightly sprinkle a band 6 – 8 inches
wide, next to and around the area you wish to protect. It is not necessary to completely
cover the ground with product. One pound will treat a band 8 inches wide by 50 feet in
length. Do not water in after application. Reapply product after heavy rains or every two
weeks to obtain best results.
08/22/2016 Stacey from Spring Hill
QCan I use Snake Out once a snake is already is confined in a garage and I want him to come out?
It is a 12 in rattle snake. A dangerous situation. However I thought the smell would over power him .. once the door is open off he goes..? this is my wishful theory. I should do over kill do sticky traps also.
A Yes, you can use Snake Out outdoors around your home. Be sure to only use it on three sides of the home for your initial application so that the snake leaves. After the snake it gone, you can put the barrier around the fourth side of your home. You can also use a glueboard in the area to catch it as well. Also, please check out our Snake Guide for tips on how to treat and prevent snakes.

Hello all, looking for a bit of assistance. Im trying to find the part number for the illuminated door handles for a 09 Sportback. i have the Optics and the Led, but its the actual door handle itself. ive searched in ETKS but no joy, If anyone has the illuminated handles can tehy get the part no or send me some close up piccys. Its maybe as simple as having to mod the door handle or maybe there is a lens. Thx Gregor
I don't think it's the handles themselves that are illuminated, just LEDs in the recess to light up the silver handles. At least that's what it is on my 2007 Sportback.
Just has a quick look in ETKA and they are just a fibre optic conductor and an LED with bracket. The actual handles are the same as normal.
http://audi-sport.net/vb/showthread.php?t=65167&highlight=lights+door+handles according to this post, new handles are requires aswell as the leds etc. just going on what is said....
Just been out and had a look at mine. The handles will be the same but the dor card itself has a thin, what looks like perspex lens cover about 2 - 3 mm x about 3cm long
To note, earlier pre-09 facelift cars had different handles for illumination, not just led's & the optic plastic trim, facelift only shows one type of handle so it must already have the cutouts in place for new facelift cars incase they want illumination pack, where as the older cars wont have the rectangle cutout for the strip/led, so beware, etka shows this
I thought you meant exterior door handles. I've seen BMW 3Series with em'. Look very nice. Shame Audis don't have it. Just think it's a nice touch
NHN, its a 09 facelift, I ve looked in Ekta ( inc Vin Number check) and yep it oly shows 1 door handle type, the back of the door handle has the mount for the LED and optic but no cutout for the strip led, ence why Ill just have to go v carefilly with the scalpel
Dremel it, best tool in world for that, but I'm not surprised etka has an issue, but where the cutout is mate is there a line of cut as per puddle lights have for cars without the lights, just intrigued more than anything else, gonna check etka again as this seems very strange. The led strip has a retaining position aswell on the back of the door handle assembly/door card, is this in there aswell?
Yep there is the retaining fittings on the back of the door card plus a cut out line on the back where the led strip goes. Off dremmeling I go Have fun with EkTA, ive spent hours looking
They cant be getting that cheap where they cut it out now, man thats cheap, lol, oh well thats totally bonus for you then mate as cheaper to get the led strip than is for the older way of new handle, good luck mate, nice mod aswell, I like that on the car.
Was thinking the exact same thing, saw it on a black 3 series when it was pitch black and they looked very smart glowing white.
Robin, thats exactly what i have, looks like I have to dremmel out the slot for the light led in the door handle...
They were part of the interior light package on your car. I must admit when I first read the post I though he ment exterior door handles like BMW have.
yeah they look pretty good i would like the light in white my car has auto lights so when i open the door the back and xenons auto come on for one minute it would be good if all four handles lit up with this it would be a nice touch
Maybe its the angle or image quality, but I think that TT with that colour look bit pants, needs to be very discreet with lesser brightness led's I think otherwise it becomes to cheesy IMHO, good idea & obviously works of the illumination circuit given works with interior lights, wonder if he's wired it so only works at night, interesting....................
Gregormac, Any chance of posting some pics of how your doing it. (a bit like a how to guide). I'd like to have ago doing this aswell. Cheers
True, but think only colour that would look good is a subtle white, the one above is horrible blue & tbh way to bright
yeah id say subtle white to i checked my car and i have the internal lights i dont see the point of them you cant see any light coming onto the handles but when i look undernieth a can see the red strip lit up
i did the outside handles on my corsa, lit up blue just like on the tt, looked pretty chavvy after i did it tbh, would look miles better in white, i got the led strip from halfords, cost me £5!
I had the handles that lit up on my bmw 3 series m sport (outside) and i loved them, looked classy and not cheap at all however only in white, any other colour would look cheese! Would be interesting to see whats involved if anyones done it?
im gonna give it a go next month when i enable my lights to come on when i lock/unlock the car i think
the illumination pack (which i went for) includes the lights in the doors, but only when you open them, so you can look out for puddles etc, my dad has a 1 series m sport and that has the led lights in the handles on the outside looks like a very good touch

Axis of Hope: Latin America on the March
Novelist, historian, journalist and film-maker
Ali will discuss his latest book, Pirates of the Carribean: Axis of Hope. A revolution is moving across Latin America. Since 1998, the Bolivarian revolution in Venezuela has brought Hugo Chávez to world attention as the foremost challenger of the neoliberal consensus and American foreign policy. Tariq Ali shows how Chávez's views have polarized Latin America and examines the aggression directed against his administration. Pirates of the Carribean offers a guide through a continent that is once again on the march (http://www.tariqali.org/).
Sponsored by the Department of Comparative Literature and co-sponsored by the Havens Center for the Study of Social Structure and Social Change, Tariq Ali's visit is made possible by the U. W. Madison Centerfor Humanities as part of their week-long series of events on "Legacies of Al Andalus: Islam, Judaism, & the West," October 16-20, 2007

During the 1960s, he also owned his own independent television production company, Bandung, which produced programmes for Channel 4 in the UK. He is a regular broadcaster on BBC Radio and contributes articles and journalism to magazines and newspapers including The Guardian and the London Review of Books. He is editorial director of London publishers Verso. Ali's fiction includes a series of historical novels about Islam: Shadows of the Pomegranate Tree (1992), The Book of Saladin (1998), The Stone Woman (2000) and A Sultan in Palermo (2005). His non-fiction includes 1968: Marching in the Streets (1998), a social history of the 1960s. A book of essays, The Clash of Fundamentalisms, was published in 2002. Tariq Ali's latest works include Pirates of the Caribbean: Axis of Hope (2006), Conversations with Edward Said (2005), Rough Music: Blair, Bombs, Baghdad, London, Terror (2005), and Speaking of Empire and Resistance (2005), which takes the form of a series of conversations with the author.

Tasty fair fare
The OC Fair brings out the crazy in the food world. We've been introduced to such gems as the beer-battered pickle. Who could forget the gluttonously good Krispy Kreme Sloppy Joe? Fair time is when locals like to let loose (of our diets) and indulge. No carb counting on the OC fairgrounds.
Sweet: Chicken Charlie's specializes in outrageous fair food. Owner Charles Boghosian has seemingly deep-fried everything edible, from cookie dough to cheesecake, not to mention White Castle cheeseburgers. Boghosian prides himself on serving over-the-top foods at fairs across the country.
Another fried vendor to taste is Texas Donuts, which returns this year with its cavity-inducing Cherry Pop Rocks confection (pictured).
Sinful: Bacon-A-Fair's Jack Daniel's-injected churro wrapped in bacon. Enough said.
Sample: Every Friday from noon to 4 p.m. try all the fair fare for $2 per taste.
Seminar: Every weekend during the fair, the Orange County Wine Society hosts oenophile-focused seminars with an array of award-winning wines.
Mastering the Pageant
The 82nd annual Pageant of the Masters takes the stage at Laguna Canyon's festival grounds July 8-August 31. For 90 minutes each evening, the audience will watch works of art, both classical and contemporary, faithfully re-created using people posed to imitate the paintings' original sitters. The most impressive part of this process is the physical transformation. Pictured here is one local performer's journey to the stage.
:: foapom.co

The Ritz-Carlton, Laguna Niguel in Dana Point aims to bring to life this year's pageant theme, "The Pursuit of Happiness," with its Behind the Velvet Ropes package.

As the sun fades behind the canyon, a Pageant of the Masters expert will give you a peek at the backstage action to get a feel for the harmonious chaos that takes place behind the curtain. The package is $1,699 per couple, per night.

Into the Great Wide Open
From Sunset Beach to San Clemente, Orange County boasts 42 miles of sprawling beaches. Coastal beauty is built into our lives, so it's easy to take it all for granted. Reinvigorate your relationship with the Pacific by trying a new water sport or by enjoying the world surfing championships, historic hideaways and whale watching. Whether you want to get wet in the waves or just enjoy the views from the dock, here are a few things that might float your boat.
Some of the best views of Newport are from above. But unless you're a drone, it's difficult to get an aerial perspective. That's where Jetpack America comes in, letting you blast out of the harbor with a water-propelled jetpack.
After a quick training session with a certified instructor, most "pilots" can hover above the water or skyrocket across the sky like the Rocketeer. Each flight helmet comes equipped with walkie-talkies – just in case you lose control – and a remote control throttle to help new pilots to stay on course.
For first timers, the thrill of take-off and landing without wiping out is fun enough. The best thing: You can literally walk on water.
While a yacht is a tad more luxurious, the Duffy boat is a classic OC nautical experience. Class it up with a cruise menu crafted by the chefs at The Cannery, who will plan a seasonal meal to enjoy as you and your guests bob around the harbor. Or, grab take-out, delivered to your Duffy from Woody's Wharf, an old-school spot on the Balboa Peninsula.
If you prefer to dock and dine, The Winery, a newcomer to the harbor, offers a taste of Italy seasoned with California panache. The restaurant requires reservations for your Duffy to dock, plus an additional $6 valet fee. Those who've cruised around the harbor for decades, know and love Harborside Restaurant, a classic seafood eatery in the historic Balboa Pavilion building. It's how locals spend an afternoon out on the Newport Beach waterfront.
Captain Dave's Dolphin & Whale Watching Safari takes passengers down into the briny blue with catamarans equipped with underwater viewing pods. The fish, dolphins and whales swimming just off our shores make for an eye-catching spectacle. Plus, who better to teach you about whales and ocean conservation than Capt. Dave Anderson? Anderson helped organize OC's first whale disentanglement group in 2010. Capt. Dave (as he prefers to be called) made national headlines when he attempted to rescue a gray whale named Lily. Over the years, he raised awareness by authoring "Lily, A Gray Whale's Odyssey." The book is a photographic journey of a gray whale's migration.
He has been featured on "The Ellen Show" and on "CBS Morning News" for his conservation efforts. He also produced an award-winning film, "Wild Dolphins & Whales of Southern California."
:: dolphinsafari.com
Crystal Cove offers a taste of the past. Its historic residences are preserved to look exactly as they did nearly a century ago. Twenty-one restored cottages dot a stretch of the coastline nestled between Newport and Laguna Beach. Since it's one of the few places where you can stay on an OC beach, space fills up fast.
If an overnight visit doesn't work out, simply bask in Crystal Cove's scenery at the Great Plein Air Art Experience that takes place through August 20. Workshops are taught by resident local artists and mark a 100-year tradition of capturing Crystal Cove on canvas.
Another way to enjoy Crystal Cove is the summer movie nights on the beach. This year, the Crystal Cove Alliance hosts two screenings on July 16 and August 13. Watch an old family-friendly flick on the sand as the waves crash in the background.
:: crystalcovebeachcottages.org
Go Pro
Vans U.S. Open of Surfing hits Huntington Beach July 25-August 2. The competition crests out of the water with skate and BMX tournaments.
The best athletes from the action sports world will be in Orange County for these annual competitions. The boardwalk and beaches will be packed, and traffic is guaranteed to be bad. But you might get to see a few celebrities in the surf.
:: vansusopenofsurf.com
The St. Regis Monarch Beach offers one of the few private, crowd-free beaches in Southern California. For landlubbers, there's a rolling green seaside golf course. But for those looking for the finest upscale recreation on the sea, The St. Regis has you covered. Resident surf butlers will fit you with the right-sized wetsuit, carry your board and provide extensive surf and paddleboard lessons.
For locals looking for a staycation, the Seaside Splendor package is a good bet. It includes two nights lodging in a renovated suite complete with butler service, a three-hour private yacht charter, private pool cabana and a $500 dining credit to the resort's award-winning restaurant, Stonehill Tavern.
Resident chef Raj Dixit has launched a new tasting menu called Tastes of the Ocean Discovery, available through July. Diners embark on a tasting journey from the Pacific Northwest down to California's Central Coast and the Baja peninsula. That means Dungeness crab sourced from Oregon to white sea bass cooked en vapeur with infused jasmine tea.
:: stregis.com
Ocean Institute's 4th of July Cruise

OC is home to big amusement parks: Knott's Berry Farm and Disneyland. This summer, these destinations offer new attractions and spectaculars intended to make a boom.
Knott's Berry Farm
In 1920, Walter and Cordelia Knott moved to Buena Park when it was just a sleepy farming community. The couple put their farm and Orange County on the map popularizing a new agricultural hybrid: the boysenberry. Ninety-five years later, Knott's still serves its signature boysenberry delicacies, including pie, soda and, of course, jam. Cordelia's contribution to the Knott's empire still stands. Her signature fried chicken is sometimes dubbed the KFC of the West. While the food satisfies nostalgia cravings, the rides will keep thrill seekers happy. The theme park unveiled Knott's Voyage to the Iron Reef 4-D spectacular in May. The new ride allows visitors to – actually and virtually – take to the water. The Iron Reef vessel submerges its passengers beneath the Knott's boardwalk as they experience an interactive battling voyage.
:: knotts.com
When the Fahrenheit rises, Anaheim's streets swell with crowds flocking to Disneyland. Since this year marks the theme park's 60th anniversary, the projected visitor count is guaranteed to skyrocket this summer.
To celebrate, the Happiest Place on Earth modernized its nighttime entertainment with innovative animations projected onto buildings on Main Street and throughout the park. A new "Paint the Night" parade features beloved characters illuminated by sparkling pyrotechnics and booming fireworks.
Other highlights include surprise giveaways handed out to random guests by cast members. The prizes range from 1 carat white diamonds to in-park VIP experiences (maybe a private party in Fantasyland?). Disneyland intends to make this a dazzling anniversary.

I have been away from my blog for almost two whole weeks. In the meantime, I have traveled far and wide in the United States with much to tell and write about. Lucky for me I seem to move from one Vinitaly to the next. I know I am still stuck on Vinitaly Day 2 on this blog but the Vinitaly US Tour has taken precedence in the last month and I'm really excited for the Chicago and New York legs of the tour. Friends Tom Hyland and Charlie Aurturaola are leading seminars in Chicago and New York, respectively as is Ian Wolff of La Cucina Italiana. We're going to have some great panels on brand building in NY and restaurant trends in both Chicago and NY. I'm really looking forward to visiting Chicago again for Monday's event. What a great city with such a hot wine scene. Always much to learn from peers and new and old friends. If you aren't yet signed up, please check out the information on Vinitalytour.com. If you are at the event, please come and say hello to me. I'll be the woman in violet.

Happy Easter, Buona Pasqua – Gita Fuori Porta
Today was Easter, a holiday I love actually. I tried to go to hear Gospel music but was thwarted in my attempt by renovations at the church I like to go to. I'm glad the Church is being renovated though, it needs it.
It's a beautiful historic church in Harlem that I like to go to when I want to hear a sermon. Instead, I made my way to St. John the Divine, another church I am partial to on the West Side. Sometimes when I stand on west 112th street and look west at the rose window on St. John the Divine, I can fantasize that I am having a "gita fuori porta," a lovely expression for a trip outside of the city, outside of the city walls. The view looks to me like that of a gothic cathedral, like Reims or Rouen.
I love French gothic Cathedrals and have spent many a day looking through them and traveling to see them specifically. To stay with the French theme, a friend and I shared an Easter meal at my local haunt, Picnic. A bistro with delicious but too pricey food. I had a glass of Paul Blanck's Pinot Blanc. It was bigger and fruitier than I had imagined but delicious nonetheless with lovely acidity and mineral notes. While I stayed in NYC this Easter, these jaunts made me feel like I had been on my own "gita fuori porta."

Happy Passover: Kosher Chianti from Terra di Seta
Today is the first night of Passover and I brought a bottle of Kosher wine to my family gathering. I brought the wine all the way from Italy in fact, it's the 2009 Chianti Classico Riserva from the Terra di Seta winery. I just met with Daniele and his life wife Maria at Vinitaly. They gave me a bottle of this wine to try at home and I thought I would save it for tonight.
I wrote extensively about them on this blog last year. They are a lovely couple that make a really nice Chianti at Italy's only all Kosher winery.
Many in the States know other Italian wines but most are made by teams of religious Jews who work in an otherwise none Kosher winery. Today as my family celebrates the Exodus I know my Dad will tell the story of when his two relatives showed up after the Holocaust during the Seder. in 1948 when he opened the door to let in Elijah, he found his long lost relatives standing outside Lillian and Samuel. They were the only ones to escape from Auschwitz. My great grandmother lost 7 sisters and their families during the Holocaust, 80 people. Tonight, as always we remember them and all the others who perished because of their faith. I'm by no means a religious person but this is one holiday I always celebrate and a story I always will remember and pass on. Chag Sameach.

Choose Your Path
There are two distinct schools of thought regarding the Autumn and childhood. One school of thought says that children must be thought of constantly! And that each season must be full of new toys and clothes and ways to have fun! While the other school of thought says that summer's the time for kids to have fun, and any other time is just for buying cheap stuff with the goal of playing with it next summer.
As always, we take the middle path.
So please enjoy, rival schools, knowing that you can buy fun, more-summery stuff at a low price and then use it later and also buy neat, autumny stuff that can be used the second it arrives.

Nearly twenty five feet tall and forty feet long, the Tyrannosaurus Rex was probably not a very skilled hunter, but rather a scavenger which probably fed on the leavings of other animals. It had more than fifty teeth measuring more than five inches in length which it used not for chewing but rather for tearing, since it swallowed its food in large chunks.
