Roofing FAQs: Your Questions Answered
Got questions about roofing? We will do our best to answer all of your questions and concerns here at Century Roofing and Siding, in business since 1980.
Q: What are some signs my roof needs replacement?
A: If you are experiencing leaks, missing or torn shingles, loose flashing, excessive shingle granules clogging gutters, and ceiling stains, your roof may need replacement. This is also true if your roof is more than 20 years old.
Q: My roof is leaking. Does it need to be completely replaced?
A: Not necessarily. We can make small repairs that will extend the life of a roof that is otherwise in good condition. However, if you keep experiencing the same problem areas through age and wear, replacement may be necessary.
Q: How do I know if hail damage has occurred?
A: This can be tough because often hail damage is not visible to the untrained eye. If you've been through a recent hail storm and suspect damage but aren't sure, call us for a professional inspection.
Q: What is an ice dam?
A: Ice dams form through the thawing and freezing of melted snow at the eaves, resulting in leaks. In winter, when temperatures go below freezing, ice dams can damage the roof and overall structure of the home.
Q: How long do asphalt shingles last?
A: They can last between 15 and 40 years depending on the grade.
Q: How long does a metal roof last?
A: Thanks to new alloys and coatings, today's metal roofs can last 50 years or more.
Q: How long does roof replacement take?
A: Most residential roofing jobs take just one day but sometimes more depending on weather delays and size of the roof.
Q: Will you clean up the area when you're finished?
A: Yes, we will conduct a thorough clean-up and walk-through once the project is finished.

A donut shaped coffee warmer. OBSESSED with this! I am definitely going to want one of these when the weather cools down and I'm constantly chugging hot drinks.
Link love….
▴ I posted about the Vans/Nintendo collaboration a little while ago but I didn't realize there were socks too!!
▴ Because everything in my life should be b+w striped, including my pens!
▴ These bowls are almost too pretty to use for food. I totally thought they were just for rings and things but they say microwave/dishwasher safe on the bottom!
▴ At first I was like "oh cute, an inflatable cactus" but then I saw it was a "men's" cactus. …uh, what?
▴ THIS BRA!!! (NSFW, obviously)
▴ A floating swan light for your bathtub. So cuuuute!
Happy Friday!!

There are moments in your life when you can't help but wonder if the Fates have lined up against you. No matter how hard you work, how hard you try; trouble crops up at every turn to thwart your efforts. I accept that as just an unfortunate series of events on some level but I can't stop myself from asking why. Why, if I do this, does that happen? Why couldn't that have happened at any other moment? Why does it crop up, seemingly, in order to negate my efforts?
These are general statements, but throughout my life I've noticed that I experience long periods where nothing happens which can be viewed as bad luck and then bad luck appears to arrive in a cluster. I learned a long time ago never to utter the words 'it can't get any worse' because that appears to be viewed as a challenge. A challenge that will not go unmet.
Does anyone know how to shake off bad karma? Bad luck? Whatever it is called?
I try to view my actions critically and I do strive to ensure I am always fair. I believe good is the nature of the greatest reality in the universe and that good is the final result of any series of events. I'm not sure how to put seriously bad luck into perspective, while it is having its heyday.
Any thoughts?
Regardless how well we plan or are prepared life happens...it is how we react to a situation or view a situation that makes it bad or good.
I firmly agree with that 99.9% of the time. I usually find what can be viewed as the silver lining in any situation. However, some things have such a negligible amount of good to be found in them that it seems grasping to claim it as being found.
Emile, I'm going to answer this question from a very personal POV, because I've only my own experience to go by. My husband and I had a really, really tough first year+ of marriage. Six months after we got married, he was diagnosed with three severe conditions affecting his heart - after an acute episode of congestive heart failure that we mistakenly assumed was just pneumonia. He lost his job as a result and we had no health insurance. In addition, we didn't have enough income to support ourselves with just me working. Five months after that, we lost our first child to miscarriage. Less than a year later, I was hospitalized twice for a fairly extended period of time, leaving us really broke and in a spot where we just could never catch up. I'm now in a position where I have to work from home. Last point is that we met when we were in our early thirties, which often left us feeling as though we'd been brought together late in life to lose each other early. It seemed horrendously unfair.
BUT - fast forward a bit, and here we are, married almost five years, spending as much time together as we wish to - he can't work and I can't work outside the home. We took in a teenager in October, and since have become her full legal guardians. My illness is better controlled and managed than it has ever been, and he, VERY unexpectedly, has seen improvement in his. I'd have told you in late 2008/2009 that we were cursed, but now, I can see a reason for everything that happened to us. It all led to us moving back to my home state of Michigan - which neither of us really likes much - but if we hadn't done so, we'd never have picked up Jasmine, and she's been one of the greatest gifts to ever touch our lives.
Luck is what it is, but I really believe (there's that yucky word) with all my heart that every human being is born to experience joy and goodness in their lives. If we, as adults, could figure out how to be better people, we could make sure no child ever got off the track to the goodness that waits for them.
I think the only way to shake off bad luck is to understand that it may not necessarily be BAD - but rather a type of preparation for us to truly recognize and appreciate the GOOD that's coming later.
I suppose your last line sums it up. You can't appreciate the good without experiencing the bad. I think I'm down because so many, at this moment, are expecting me to find the ace in the hole to pull us all away from the brink. Maybe, I'm just turned looking at the wrong end of the tunnel. Or maybe not. I like to think failure is a character builder, but that sentiment doesn't apply when viewing the lives of others. Failure would be incredibly hard on them.
The tough part is that you may find yourself falling over the edge. If that's the case, just keep an eye out for a soft place to land. And, I sorta look at it this way: if others are looking to you, it's because you've done it before, and that means you have it in you to do it again. There's nothing wrong with occasionally feeling down, just make sure you're prepared to start climbing when/if you hit a bottom.
My feet and mind never stop moving. I may feel put upon at times but I never feel completely helpless. What's the old saying? Things always work out in the end. If they haven't worked out, it's not the end yet.
Absolutely! And, you strike me as the type to NOT give up easily. Got my fingers crossed for you!
When I ask, 'can it get any worse' or 'now what' or 'what next', it usually does get worse and I think that a part of me wants it that way just so I can say, 'AH - HA, I WAS RIGHT '. We all have responsibilities we must attend to but when things are not going too well, I spend some time, if at all possible, 'not trying'. I too believe that good is a fundamental part of reality and I remind myself of that truth often. And if some of our troubles involve the 'small stuff ', some humor does not hurt. Breaking a shoe lace and hitting myself in the chin while I am already pissed off, may not be a good thing, but it sure is funny. Have a nice day.
Sure, the first thing one needs to understand is that there is no room for superstitions. Karma does not exist and we have no control over luck. Your bad luck may be good luck for others. Karma is simply wishful thinking. It should be like that therefore it is, well we also have sayings like "only the good die young" for a good reason.
I've had a couple as friends for the last ten years who appeared to at times have everything going their way, except for the separation which almost led to a divorce they did get back together and everything seemed perfect. They liked the idea of karma and wouldn't worry about their children because doing so was a negative emotion and that would affect the children. They routinely told others their errors and would point out others troubles as being related to Karma. Last summer one of their children needed hospitalization and almost lost her kidneys as a result of partying on March break. She apparently may need a kidney transplant in the future, but we didn't find that out from talking to the parents because they wouldn't talk about it. Bad karma? No life, life happens, all the good and the bad. All Karma does is make people feel guilty for things they have no control over.
Well, I'll admit. The use of the word karma was probably a mistake. However, random problems, when random, can be resolved to the adage 'life happens'. When they come at you like machine gun fire from every angle, you tend to wonder. And that is indicative of my life. Trouble comes in large groups when it comes. It comes from every angle. When it comes. It isn't usually there. It waits until the bucket is full and then dumps all at the same time.
And we aren't talking about cause and effect. Unless you think I can somehow knock a 70 year old oak over on a power line, or influence buyers with the will of my mind, or control electricity, or manipulate the movement of a random farm animal. All while standing in one place and make all of these things happen at separate locations; yet converge to disrupt my life. Only to perform similar feats of magic which cause serious problems day after day.
There are days when the weirdometer is in the red zone.
Those days suck. Had one like that a few weeks back. Everything I touched when to s*&t.
Oh, sorry I did misunderstand. I took karma in literal sense. Yep those days you describing are a pain. Life happens though. Yes, you will get through it.
The last few days, I have spent pondering over the exact same question. I was thinking as to what is the use of being good when 'evil' seems to be enjoying all fruits. I have a Master, a Guru whom I consider as my God - Bhagawan Sri Sathya Sai Baba. Based on insights from Him, I made the answer into a hub. Please have a look...
<promotional link removed>
My way of seeing this is that the Cosmic Source knocked my back door down to wake me up. Those periods usually are being produced by my past thinking. I totally believe we create today. Yes, life happens, and events happen but it is how we respond to it. I have written many hubs on this. I lost everything of value, excluding my daughter. Material possessions are all gone, and their value never was significant. I loss homes, possessions, work, and faced homelessness. I met abusive men, who seem to been attracted to me. After losing everything, and living in a place of abuse by a sociiopath, I had to ask myself why did I hate myself so much to create such a reality. Hard question, but the answers were my saving grace. Took me two and half years to get where I am now. I like where I am. I live in the present, stop blaiming everything for what I created, stop reacting and most of all live in gratitude
Karma, another topic I write on a lot here, is simply cause and effect. Our thoughts are the cause and the events are the effects.
Blessings to you. I know, trust me I do know how hard this is and you feel it never will end. The pain that is attached to it is unbelieveable. It is hard waking up, yet alone managing to make it through the day. You go into survivial mode and life is not surviving with you. You though are stronger than you think, and you will make it through it. If I can, and I did, anyone can. You just have to learn to reprogram your brain, another area i write on. I not trying to push hubs here, this is though the topic i write on frequently. I write on what I did to get through this. I went through almost 7 years of hell, and it took those last 2 and half to really put to work what I knew. I changed things, and it is hard, but this is not God punishing you, or karma hitting you. It is simply your beliefs and thoughts all jammed into your subconscious mind. The subconscious mind acts like a computer it is not for or against you. It acts solely on input in to output.
I appreciate your post and am happy to hear you are in a better place. I don't think we react the same to problems though. I have no trouble waking up and jumping out of bed. There is too much on my plate to have the luxury of sleeping. Actually, I think I think I'm invincible. I do get frustrated and down, but my ego is large enough to keep me under the assumption that I'll find the best end of any dilemma. Although I've currently lost sight of the light at the end of the tunnel I have no doubt one exists. I'm just stumped as to why it flickered out. If you had any idea how many obstacles have surfaced out of no where you'd understand my current question. I think.
Be careful looking for the light at the end of the tunnel...sometimes it is a train...and sometime when we can't see the light it simply means nothing more than it is nighttime. So get some sleep and start fresh in the morning.
I am under the belief that life happens. Yes, I am well aware of what you are asking. I always believed life happens to you, majority by our own thinking, and other times it is called life. It for me is just is. It is not a God punishing a person, or karma. We have both good and bad, and always will. Good luck, Emile.
Random events will tend to cluster. Uniform events would be a pattern more in need of explanation IMHO.
I love that explanation, I have to admit I had to read it a few times to understand, but it makes perfect sense.
There are no random events. They just appear that way because you haven't seen the pattern yet.
No they aren't. Events follow specific rules, parameters. How can you deny that?
Like getting struck by lightning on a sunny day or perhaps winning the lottery or how about getting hit by a falling aircraft.
They still follow the laws of physics. Even if we don't know exactly what those laws are,and have only figured out small bits and peices of the laws of the universe so far.
I guess if we are hit by debris from a fallen aircraft we should have examined the physics of everything flight path during a drive or a walk to make sure we are not directly under a flight path?
I guess to prevent childhood cancer we should screen out potential mates by examining their complete family history and DNA from each family member and take into account how any two sets of DNA might mix?
Only in the macro world we're familiar with. Apparently the subatomic world of quantum mechanics does not always operate under the "laws" of cause and effect. Random events are the norm, not the impossibility.
I can see that, to an extent. After a certain point where they keep happening it's a little hard to wrap my head around, but I'll keep telling myself that. It should help. Thanks.
If the events were perfectly staggered out we would question that. But clusters are more random so it makes sense.
I was actually attempting to be nice with that one. It doesn't explain some things. I know we find comfort in order and believing we have a good bead on things. I'm not afraid of the fact that some things (my current experiences included) don't fall into a neatly explained package. When I'm not cursing under my breath I actually enjoy the fact that I feel buffeted by the Fates. I don't actually believe I'm being buffeted by the Fates, but there is something definitely askew. It fascinates me.
A few years back we lost two brothers in law (both not yet 40), a father in law, two moms and a grandmother all with about two years. 3 of those within about 6 months. Then nothing. What would be strange is if they where all exactly two years apart.
I believe bad luck is a challenge, which is to say we usually grow from challenges. One never really knows just how far they can push themselves until they've been challenged.
Through the years I've read and heard heartwarming stories such as both parents dying maybe a car accident and the poverty-stricken family is now headed up by the oldest son/daughter who may still be in grade school. Having gone through this ordeal they have managed to make a success out of themselves and their lives.
Well, I do believe adversity is the greatest character builder, and humbling experience, available. I've heard the adage 'God only gives you what you can handle' and by that adage I would think God has a high regard for my level of tolerance. But, the truth is many of these problems wouldn't be problems had I not set my sites so high and weren't trying to accomplish a large goal for my family. So, I have to accept I have a high regard for my level of tolerance and endeavor to persevere.

Greywacke Chardonnay Marlborough 2010
Winemaker's Notes:
Not yet reviewed; 2009 vintage rated 92+ points by Wine Advocate: ...French oak barriques, 25% new, and aged for 12 months with occasional lees stirring and full malo-lactic... expressive notes of ripe apricots, guava, green mango and apple tart over nuances of buttered oatmeal and crushed cashews. Full bodied, ripe and rich in the mouth, it has a wonderfully creamy texture and generous amount of fruit flavor, finishing long with lingering honeyed peach notes. Delicious now, it should continue to cellar to 2016+.

As he rose to go, he thanked the zemindar most heartily for his kindness.
"It is an honour that you have bestowed upon me," the zemindar said, courteously.
The zemindar was half a landlord and half a revenue collector.
Malcolm rode up to the zemindar, who was separated some forty paces from the ekka.
Chumru grinned, and the zemindar regarded him with troubled eyes.
Even then I was reflecting on the real cause of the zemindar's wrath.
The land revenue was fixed in perpetuity with the zemindar in 1793.
The luckless zemindar was staggered by the tale of oppression.
The zemindar became a great nabob, became sovereign of all India; the two hundred sepoys became two hundred thousand.
The law, or the administration thereof, affects him in a very slight degree compared with the zemindar.

Two parts make for a great backyard retreat—shade from the sun and safety from irritating bugs. The excellent news: You can now choose from a variety of screened canopies (additionally referred to as gazebos) that handle each solar and insects. They're easy to put up and maintain, you possibly can plant them in virtually any flat spot, they usually're fairly priced, sometimes $200 to $500, relying on the size. Typical sizes vary from 10 x 10-ft. to 12 x 12 ft. You can create a cushty sitting area in just some hours. Look for screened canopies at home centers and outside furnishings dealers.

Maggie Hope is now a full fledged spy. She made her appearance as Mr. Churchill's Secretary in the first book in this series. Although she flunks out of spy training, Mr. Frain is there to use her talents as a spy in the Windsor castle household. Frain and his MI5 colleagues are concerned that the Nazis plan to assassinate the king, abduct Princess Elizabeth, and put the Duke and Duchess of Windsor on the throne.
Maggie, understandably, isn't thrilled in moving from a secretarial position to becoming a governess, but she agrees. She enters the castle under the pretext of teaching Princess Elizabeth maths and becomes a friend and confidant of the two princesses. In the spy business Maggie is not only a novice, she lacks understanding of people's character and motives. Her subsequent success in solving the mysteries in Windson Castle is astonishing to say the least.
The book is a quick, easy read. It's slow in many parts. The opening where Maggie flunks out of spy school is particularly boring. Although a murder takes place at the castle, Maggie isn't equipped to handle the investigation, so she waltzes around the outside wondering about people, she agrees at the end, she doesn't like.
I can't recommend this book for lovers of historical fiction. It's too light on historical detail and too heavy on the way the castle looks. However, if you want a light romance and a glimpse of royals, you may enjoy this book.
I reviewed this book for the Amazon Vine Program.

Daily Prompt: Against All Odds
Let's flashback to my first day of college… That day never ended, well it did but instead I woke up a week later in the hospital. Yes, I started college off on a very distinct and different way. When I eventually was released from the hospital, I began to go to cognitive therapy. Interestingly I was tested in various areas such as language, reading, and math (especially since I had wanted to study engineering). I strongly recall the blank look I gave simple math problems. I couldn't remember 8×5 (equals 40 by the way) or other easy math. All of that was gone.
For most of my life, I struggled with math and it was never a strong point. The only reason I even took AP calculus AB in high school was because I wanted to study engineering. I HATED math! I laugh at this now. Anyways, the math folder in my brain, kind of like folders on the my computer, felt hidden. It was blocked until I was retaught. Then it was as if I double clicked the folder open. Little by little I began to relearn math. By the following semester, about 5 months after my accident, and by the grace of G-d, I took an elementary algebra class. Surprisingly I was relearning math and understanding. For the first time, math was becoming fun! That's right…fun!! The following semester I was signed up to take the lowest level engineering math and on the first day we took a quick placement exam to make sure we were in the right course. Turned out that I did really well on it and my professor strongly encouraged me to take the next level engineering math. Over the period of the next few days I struggled with the idea and definitely prayed for guidance. Well it helped that my friend was in that class. So I switched over. I felt completely lost but every night Monday through Thursday, I attended tutoring sessions, even if I finished the homework.
Then came our first test, it was hard. When the results came out, everyone began to murmur. Nearly everyone had failed. Well, everyone except three people. As for me, I was one of the three! It felt unreal but it was in that moment that I knew G-d was confirming my question about if I could and should study engineering. It was then I felt sure that G-d was going to help me through this. That this is what I was to do. I have struggled with it nearly every day since but it has led to more beautiful and unexpected blessings than I ever would have expected.
Since then I have spent numerous hours working one-on-one with tutors and studying the various math concepts to pass each class. My calculus one class, I did well enough that I didn't even have to take the final. Then there was the calculus two class that I nearly failed and my professor thought I was approaching too pessimistically. Until I got a really high grade on the final which pushed my grade up to a B+. Well and then came my latest course of calculus three with an older and wiser polish professor which I enjoyed and understood almost all the way through.
Well I share that whole story to bring you up to speed with what happened today. Today as I am supposed to be studying for my differential equations/ linear algebra midterm but instead I am extremely unfocused. I received an invitation to join Kappa Mu Epsilon, a national mathematics fraternity at my university! The most unexpected and exciting honor considering my past with math. I nearly laughed when I first read the email in disbelief.
Now as the sun has set and the day is wrapping up I smile with thanksgiving for how good G-d is, how wonderful it is to be able to learn and discover mathematics and to actually understand most of what I've learned. G-d has an incredible formula for my life and interestingly I'm not sure what it is but I know that G-d has the answer. I know that G-d continues to solve and lead me to the next part and continues to add blessings which I never would have expected. I am overwhelmed with gratitude and amazed by Him!

How George Soros Spreads Prosperity
The Changes Around The Globe
The world around us is changing at a fast rate and it's obvious that this trend is good for everyone. The most amazing thing about globalization is that it billionaires have used it to give the poor around the world a way to lift themselves out of poverty and to establish a new quality of life for the global poor. George Soros has made himself front in center in this movement and he is one of the greatest advocates for it.
Why Billionaire Cares For The Poor
The common view of the rich is that they do not care about the poor and simply seek to exploit them. George Soros takes this myth and throws it on its head. He has done more than just about anyone else to help the poor and he has made himself one of the most prominent examples of a philanthropist seeking to make the world around him a better place. Thanks to his effort we can now see capitalism in countries that we once communist and democracy is spreading. Read more about George at The New York Times.
What He Wants To Do For Everyone
George Soros has made it clear that he wants to help the world by giving people a chance to change their lives for the better and to give people what they are going to need in order to live better lives. Much of what George Soros accomplishes is done through the Open Society Foundation. He runs this charity with his family in order to help the world around him advance and to give people the ability to choose how they are going to live their lives. He isn't alone in his efforts either. Other billionaires have followed his example and are creating their own foundations.
Is There Hope For The Global Poor
The global poor are currently escaping a life of poverty and oppression thanks to the work of George Soros. In their home countries they are able to find better paying work and they are able to afford lives they could not before. Those who immigrate to the West give themselves and their children far better lives than they would be able to achieve in their home countries. Clearly, Soros has done something the world appreciates.

The Legacy Of George Soros
George Soros has built a legacy and now he's going to do just about everything he can to defend it. Open societies are a benefit to everyone, but so many on the Right see it as otherwise. Fortunately, Soros is showing people the way forward and giving us the hope we need to continue on as societies and as the world as a whole. Learn more about his profile at washingtontimes.com.

By David Speakman in Silicon Valley
Sharon Wienbar is a director at BA Venture Partners, the Silicon Valley-based venture capital fund for Bank of America.
06:15 Wake up, shower, coffee and breakfast. I'm a creature of morning habit and have my cereal, milk and newspaper almost every day, even with early meetings. My husband gets up earlier than me so he can swim before heading to the office.
07:00 I dial in to a conference call for an out-of-town board meeting. One of my partners is on the board at this company, but our fund usually assigns two partners to each deal. During this call I keep my phone on mute much of the time, as my children come down for breakfast and get ready for school. They're usually pretty good at being quiet while Mommy's on the phone, and I have mastered a silent smooch for a good morning greeting. They are off to school at 8am.
08:30 One of my portfolio companies has a board conference call later this morning to approve a new financing. That deal has some issues we need to resolve beforehand, so I first check in with my co-lead investor to make sure we're thinking about those issues the same way. My next call is to the company counsel to check out how we would implement various different scenarios. Next call is to update the CEO on the investor status and next steps. She's not happy about a potential delay, but understands and is glad for the head's up. The company's not on the ropes, so a few days isn't a big deal. In the span of 30 minutes I have multiple phone calls with each angel separately and some all together to discuss how we'll jointly fund our company.
09:30 Another conference call. The CEO gives a business update, which is encouraging. Our big new contract is producing revenue, and other contracts are moving through the pipeline. The board's special finance committee has met and recommends the company accept the investor terms. The problem is that not all the investors have agreed to the term sheet, so the issue is moot for now. The call ends early, but we will have a follow-up call on Friday.
10:30 I have a couple of interesting calls in voicemail today. Another fund wants to syndicate (share investment in) a new deal they've been working on that's in an area I'm particularly focused on, Internet advertising. Return that straight away, but get voicemail. Another call is from another different Internet advertising exec; he saw an article I wrote for CNET on adware and spyware (http://news.com.com/The spyware inferno/2010-1032_3-5307831.html), and wants to know if I'm interested to invest in his company. Hot dog! That marketing stuff really works when we get a deal in that we might not have otherwise seen. The third interesting call is from the company counsel for a deal I saw several months ago, a digital music device for consumers. She wants feedback on why we turned the deal down.
12:00 Off-cycle partner meeting (lunch is served): We normally have partner meetings on Mondays. This week our hardware team is racing to get a hot deal they've been working on for weeks. On Monday we thought the company expected term sheets from new investors in another week or so, but another VC pre-empted with an early term sheet Monday night. We now have to decide whether we want to approve an investment and submit our own term sheet in competition. The partner on point does a great job explaining to us how he wants to mitigate the risk—of course it won't go away, that's our job. But he has ideas for how to structure the financing to make it attractive to all parties: management, the inside investors, and us. Our partner has in mind what the company will eventually be worth, thus how much we can afford to pay to make a decent return. We all agree with his suggestions and vote to approve the deal. Now he has the hard job of negotiating with the insiders. My brain hurts from thinking in short intense bursts about a technology area far from my own expertise. But this is exactly what's fun about venture capital: never a dull moment, always learning something new.
14:00 A partner at an out-of-town, early-stage fund has scheduled a call with me. He has a portfolio company with some interesting technology that hasn't yet generated revenue. He wants to see if one of my portfolio companies, already well along in revenue, wants to buy his company to expand its scope. I listen to the other VC, but then tell him we've already considered the idea and want to pass.
14:30 More phone calls with the angel investors who have additional questions about future financing requirements, cash burn, and deal terms. I remind myself to never be an angel investor.
15:00 I take lots of meetings with folks looking for a job—these meetings can be either a real drag or fun and useful, and it's hard to tell what you'll get going in to a meeting. This afternoon's meeting is with a fellow who's been a serial interim CEO (turns around companies while the board is looking for a new full time CEO) who is looking for a 'permanent' CEO position. After the meeting I introduce him by email to a top recruiter who frequently works in our portfolio.
16:00 In between meetings I grab a quick call with company counsel for the deal doing the financing. The lawyer thinks we are fine with the terms I've outlined with the angels. He agrees to start drafting a new term sheet and company financing documents with these terms even though we don't have official board approval yet. Next, I meet a real candidate for a real job, CFO in one of my portfolio companies. The company plans an IPO next year, so a rock solid CFO is a must. Luckily they already have a strong management team and are in a 'hot' space, so attracting talent with our best recruiter has been pretty easy. The fellow this afternoon has done it all: IPO's, international M&A, spin-outs and spin-ins, built finance and infrastructure from the ground up. We spend most of our time discussing the company and his relevant expertise, but then segue to an open-ended discussion of the online music business—if they pay, do customers want to buy music or 'stream' it? Why does Apple keep gaining share? Will Yahoo! succeed with MusicMatch, their hot new acquisition?
17:00 I try again to return the call from the potential co-investor who wants to share his new deal opportunity in internet advertising, and this time I get him on the line. He describes the company and potential investment, and it sounds good. I agree to rearrange my schedule for the next day to make an hour's drive out to the East Bay to visit this company. We want to move quickly.
17:30 I am usually home for dinner, but tonight I have a business engagement, so I call home to check on the kids, their day, their homework, etc. My husband will be home shortly, so I check in with our babysitter, then yack with each of my kids. They are waiting for their Halloween costumes, ordered off eBay, to arrive. 'When will my Juliet costume come?' takes up most of the conversation after we've reviewed the status of homework.
18:30 Working dinner with two CEO's in my portfolio who should know each other but don't. They're each deeply experienced in their field (consumer marketing) and have even at times been CEO's of nearly competitive companies, but they've never met. I offered to introduce them, so tonight I host a dinner for the three of us at Chez Spencer, an informal French restaurant in a ratty, but freeway-close part of San Francisco. The conversation ranges widely; these two brilliant, extroverted entrepreneurs deliver delicious dinner conversation, which I merely observe part of the evening. After sharing one hazelnut parfait amongst the three of us, we call it a night. One of the CEO's leaves, and the other and I have a quick intense discussion on our top CFO candidate. Time to drive home to the 'burbs.
21:30 First things first at home, I keep my regular promise to my girls to tuck each one in with a kiss. They sleep through the nuzzling, but I like it! My husband tells me about his day, and we chat about the rest of the week. After catching up, I do a quick pass at email. I reply to a few items and decide the rest can wait till tomorrow. To unwind for a bit before bed I read, first the newspaper, then a couple of magazine stories. My book club assignment will have to wait for the weekend.

This was the first project I ever did in advertising and I was fortunate enough to work along side great talents like Christina Yu, Basil Douglas Cowieson and Robert Sturch.
By re-imagining how traditional television ads could be used, we continued the narrative into the digital space by building a game. We then used a national out-of-home buy to further drive the masses to our digital content, making this a truly integrated campaign.
My very first project was recognized by Cannes in the Cyber Lion category.

Sneaker packs are nothing new in the world of kicks and with the Jordan "Fear" pack soon to release, we highlight 25 of the best from the past decade! From some of the most beloved Jordan's to highly sought-after Supreme x Nike collabs, these packs were not only all very well executed, but were most likely equally hard to get your hands on. We hope you enjoy taking a walk down memory lane a little bit and let us know which is your favorite pack in the comments section below or some of the ones you own!
Supreme x Nike SB Dunk High Pro
Release Date: August 2003
After the tremendous success of their iconic 2002 elephant-print SB low, Supreme continued their tradition of killer Nike collabs with this three pack of Dunk High SBs. Designed with faux-croc and stars, with inspiration from the OG Dunk High's "Be True to Your School" series, and released over the course of three days, exclusively at Supreme in NYC, these gems are truly a part of sneaker history.
Air Jordan 6/11 Defining Moments Package
Release Date: 1/28/2006
Defining Moments is the perfect namesake for this pack of JB classics. And not just because this was Jordan Brand's first sneaker pack. But also because utilizing two of the best hoops silhouettes of all time, brushing them with classy hits of gold and packaging them together, set the bar high for the future of the brand. This pack was the stuff dreams are made of for Jordan heads.
Stash x Nike "Blue Pack"
Release Date: 3/25/2006
NYC artist Stash was behind a couple very well received Nike collabs before he put together what's been dubbed the "Blue Pack". But, no doubt, using the Air Max 95 and Air Force 1 Low helped to make this his most successful footwear venture yet. Inspired by Nike's ACG line, and featuring regrind rubber, Climafit and water resistant materials, Stash and Nike had a masterpiece on their hands.
Nike x Supreme Blazer Pack
Release Date: 4/21/2006
When it comes to Nike collabs, Supreme just wins. With high-quality quilted leather uppers and snakeskin checks, these are grail-status for most of us in the know.
Air Jordan IV Thunder and Lightning Pack
Release Date: 8/23/2006
Dropping online, as individual packs, one paired with a shirt and the other with a jacket, Jordan Brand caught some heat trying to throw resellers a curve ball. Priced at $250 and $500 respectively, the Thunder and Lightning packs were only the beginning of JB's (and Nike's) attempts to curb reselling…by targeting more wallets.
Nike SB "Three Bears" Pack
Release Date: November 2006
These SBs are juuussst right. Teaming up with Medicom (known for their Be@rbrick figures) in 2006, Nike dropped these three Dunk models…one perfect for each member of the family. Rocking faux-fur panels and offsetting suede, the only questions was, why didn't we get a Goldilocks model?
atmos x Nike Air Max 1/95 "Animal Pack"
Release Date: 2007
The recent Animal/Camo capsule wasn't atmos's first forray into animal print…they've been playing with fur for a while now. And, as evidenced with this pair of Air Max classics – the 1 and the 95 – they're pretty much in a class of their own. When they dropped in 2007, they were exclusive enough. But, once Kanye was seen rocking them at the Super Bowl, these bold flavors of Air Max goodness have been seen going for 4-figures. Catch em' if you can!
The Simpsons x Vans Collection
Release Date: 7/14/2007
In order to promote the opening of the 2007 Simpson Movie, Vans teamed up with a collective of 12 artists to drop a 14-sneaker pack of legendary proportions. This mega-pack saw Simpsons-inspired takes on classic Vans models from artists ranging from brand-staples like Taka Hayashi to high-profile names like Mr. Cartoon, KAWS, Futura and Todd James. If the sneaker gods blessed you on that day in 2007, you're sitting on a piece of Vans (and sneaker) history. If only all movies had promotional material like this.
Alife Rivington Club x Asics "Clerk" Pack
Release Date: June 2008
With only 216 pairs in each color, this Alife Rivington Club x Asics pack was scarce. But, if you had good sneaker karma, and were hip to Asics back in 2008, the ARC Asics surely remain a high point of your collection to this day. We know we're still on the hunt!
Nike "112 Pack" by DJ Clark Kent
Release Date: 7/12/2008
Without question, DJ Clark Kent is a sneaker OG. He's forgotten more about sneaker history than most of us will ever know. But, with this amazing "112 Pack" he became part of that history. Consisting of an Air Force 1, an Air Max 1 and an Air Trainer 1, all three of which sport 3M, elephant-print, and just the right amount of neon, the ultra-limited 112 Pack created a ripple effect in the sneaker community that is still being felt today.
Air Jordan V "Toro Bravo" Pack
Release Date: 5/30/2009
May 2009 saw Jordan Brand breaking hearts once again, with their "Toro Bravo" Pack. Drawing inspiration from the Running of the Bulls in Spain, JB hit up the legendary Jordan V with two killer colorways. One sporting 3M and the other doing all-red suede before it was cool. We know plenty of folks who'd love to see some of these retro'ed.
Nike Air Trainer Legacy Pack
Release Date: 6/18/2009
Legacy is right! The Air Trainer is one of the most iconic styles in the history of the Swoosh. So, in 2009, when Nike wanted to bring that classic into the future, with the Air Trainer 1, they dropped this smooth double dip. Yes, please!
Air Jordan I 60+ Defining Moments Pack
Release Date: 7/11/2009
This pack got it's inspiration from MJ's career playoff high-scoring game in the 1986 NBA Playoffs. Jordan dropped 63 points against the Celts while wearing the black/red 1s and, perhaps as a consolation, JB felt compelled to drop a C's-inspired colorway. Everyone wins with this one.
Patta x Nike Air Max 1 Anniversary Pack
Release Date: Early 2010
If only we all had birthday celebrations this noteworthy. For the 5th-anniversary celebration of their Amsterdam-based shop, Patta teamed up with Dutch artist Parra to crank out 5, count 'em FIVE, of the most beautiful Air Max 1s ever created. All five of these beauties dropped over a 2 month span in early 2010, and several of them now have resale values in the four-digits. Happy birthday indeed.
Nike x Aston Martin 'Kobe Bryant' Pack
Release Date: 5/13/2010
With production of only 500 pairs worldwide, getting your hands on this Zoom Kobe V/Hyperdunk package proved extremely difficult. But, those that did, got their hands on the best colorways both silhouettes ever saw. Inspired by the Aston Martin DB9, both shoes sport gunmetal grey uppers and slick maroon leather trim. Vroom vroom…
Air Jordan VI 'Infrared' Pack
Release Date: 6/19/2010
The Infrared VI is one of the most popular and iconic models in the Jordan arsenal. So, pairing both white and black versions together is an easy win.
Taka Hayashi x Vans Vault Pendleton Pack
Release Date: December 2010
Taka Hayashi has been Vans's secret weapon for some time now. But, after dropping this Pendleton collab for the Vault line in 2010, the secret was out. Rumors of production problems only made this collab tougher to get. But for those who did get their hands on them, they've got a piece of Vans (and sneaker) history. Since this pack, his designs have been all over the premium Vans Vault line.
Nike x Sole Collector "Penny Signature Pack"
Release Date: 10/29/2011
Sole Collector had an ace up their sleeve with this one. Dropping one of the most thorough packs in basketball sneaker history, their "Penny Signature" pack dropped an Orlando Magic colorway over all five of Mr. Hardaway's Nike signature models. This one was release at a special event in Las Vegas, and was extremely limited.
Burn Rubber x New Balance 580 "Workforce Pack"
Release Date: Feb/March 2012
Though not the hottest-seller on this list, the New Balance "Workforce" pack by Detroit boutique Burn Rubber, is a subtle classic, both in terms of quality and overall execution of the theme. Detroit is a city full of contrast. And that diversity is clear in this NB pack consisting of "Blue Collar" and "White Collar" versions of the classic MT580. Sleeper status.
Air Jordan 6/7 Golden Moments Pack
Release Date: 8/18/2012
"When life gives you lemons, paint that sh*t gold!" Jordan Brand stuck to the formula that made their DMP pack so successful and dropped gold hits all over two of their classic silos. This time utilizing the AJ VI & VII, the Golden Moments pack sold out instantly.
atmos x Nike Air Max 1 Camo/Animal Pack
Release Date: 2/23/2013
Mixing patterns as loud as camo and animal print is a tall task. But, Tokyo-based boutique atmos silenced many a critic with this duo of Nike Air Max 1s. With desert camo and leopard print on one, and tiger camo and snake print on the other, this whole capsule is fire. Even down to the matching hats and tees.
Bape x UNDFTD x adidas Originals Consortium Collection
Release Date: 4/13/2013
After numerous delays and pushbacks, Bape, Undefeated and adidas came correct on this trio of instant-classics. Those who were able to track down a pair had a secondary problem to deal with though…which one to cop?!
Ronnie Fieg x Asics Gel Lyte III "E.C.P"
Release Date: 5/10/2013
Ronnie did it big when he went down to South Beach. Even if he opened up a Kith pop-up shop, and dropped a collaborative capsule with classic brands from both coasts, the star(s) of the show (as always with RF) were his takes on the Asics Gel Lyte III. Bringing us Knicks and Dolphins colorways, with premium pigskin suede and memory foam insoles, the East Coast Project set the bar high, especially from an overall execution standpoint.
size? x Nike "Urban Safari" Pack
Release Date: June 2013
It's been Christmas in summertime over at UK boutique size?. Dropping throughout the summer, their three-part exclusive "Urban Safari" pack brought some absolute heat to several Nike classics. Drawing color inspiration from the Swoosh vaults, the creatives at size? have been crazy busy, releasing an unheard of 8 pairs of shoes (4 different silos in 2 colorways each). Toki Mids, Air Max Lights, Roshe Runs and Air Max 180s, oh my. The strength of this pack could go toe-to-toe with almost any other on this list.
Nike Lebron X "Celebration" Pack
Release Date: 8/10/2013
Releasing in super-limited quantities, with a $500 price tag no less, the LeBron X "Celebration Pack" was spun up to honor King James's back-to-back NBA championships. With the insoles sporting the phrase "2-time Champion," it's a good thing the Heat ended up winning the title this year. Otherwise these beautiful kicks would would only be seen on kids rocking 19-0 Patriots gear.

There's something sweet about seeing my love off to work and welcoming him when he comes home :) My Bri-Bri has a part time job at a parenting supervision site where he observes parents who are spending time with their children in the contet of supervised visitation. He got this job after his internship with the same agency and I am proud of him!!
Anyway, I am waiting for him to come home so he can have someone to hug and tell about his day. There's just something sweet and 'homey' about that, and there's something sweet in wishing him a good shift as I kiss him before he walks out the door :)
This sweetness goes both ways :) I feel happy when my sweet hubby kisses me in the mornings at the light rail station and wishes me a good day, and feel happy when I come home from a day at work and get to hold his hands and kiss his lips when I get into the car to go home from the light rail station.
As we go on in our marriage, I hope we don't take these little gestures for granted because having each other before and after we go and work a day at the office or a morning at the parenting place is a sweet ending to a work day and the begining of us reconnecting for the rest of the day.
Aaaaww! :)

A man who identifies himself as Bratislav Zivkovic from Krusevac, Serbia was featured in Simon Ostrovsky's Dispatch Five from Crimea, claiming to have recently arrived in Crimea to assist in the defense of local Russophones. Zivkovic's only motivation, he claims, is to remain loyal to the principle that Serbs and Russians have traditionally come to each other's assitance over the ages.
In a different video bearing the Russian title Православный фашизм в России (Orthodox Fascism in Russia), the same Bratislav Zivkovic (let us continue to call him) demonstrates on behalf of Orthodox Fascists in Russia.
The mole on Zivkovic's right cheek, hidden in the still above, becomes clearly visible in the still opposite.

My Aunt Rose and Uncle Rod came to town for a week during spring break. They adopted a little later in life so their son Jacob is just a few years older than Reanne. Jacob and Reanne haven't really spent a lot of time together in the past, but they had a blast with each other while they were here visiting. We went to Bridal Veil Falls, the art museum in Springville, and the BYU Creamery. I haven't seen Reanne that happy in a long time. It was wonderful.

Out on the range
April has been insane. A lot has been happening for all of us but we have been trying to do more family activities together to make up for it.
One Saturday Jess borrowed some kid rifles from his friend and we all went up the canyon to try them out. Sierra was so happy to have a bright pink one to shoot. She and Grant really couldn't hit much but they had a lot of fun. Reanne surprised us by hitting a lot of things and learned how to load her gun completely by herself. When it was mom and dad's turn to shoot our bigger, louder guns the kids went around and collected things. They actually had as much fun collecting as they did with their rifles.

Bataan Memorial Death March
Two weekends ago Jess drove down to New Mexico to participate in the Bataan Memorial Death March. It is a 26.2 mile event that you can either run or ruck march. He chose to ruck march it in the heavy devision which means you have to have at least 35 pounds on your back. He also represented his army unit and carried their flag the whole time. Although I had never heard of it, it is a pretty popular event as you can see by Jess's number. Jess found out about this about a year ago and wanted to do it, mostly because his Grandpa was a survivor of the original Bataan Death March in WWII. I thought it was really sweet.
In Jess fashion, he did a lot of training for it. (That's sarcastic, but you can't tell in writing.) But he's been so busy I can't blame him too much. I actually didn't think he'd need much training, but when I heard about it later I didn't think I would be able to do it. It was in the 80's the day he marched and about 10 of the 26 miles were either going up or down a mountain. When he hit mile 22 you hit a sand pit where you are in ankle deep sand for a couple miles and all of this with a heavy backpack strapped on you. Jess said it took him 12 hours to complete. Jess said it was the hardest thing he's ever done, but I know he had a good time and I'm proud of him.

The funding for unemployment benefits comes from a combination of federal and state unemployment insurance taxes. The taxes are paid by employers, and they are based on the amount of wages paid to employees. Some government employers and non-profit organizations are exempt from unemployment insurance taxes.What is the process for applying for unemployment benefits?
Applicants should file for benefits as soon as possible after becoming unemployed. Most states allow applicants to file claims both in person or using an online application, though a follow-up interview is almost always required. Applicants should be prepared to provide basic contact and identity verification documentation, as well as earnings history and an explanation of how they became unemployed.Can people receive unemployment compensation if their work hours are reduced by their employer?
If an applicant's work hours are reduced to less than full-time through no fault of their own, they may be eligible for unemployment compensation. In these cases, the applicant may only be eligible for a partial benefit.

6/29/09 A time for giving thanks .
It was wonderful to get away last week, even for just a few days. We got to see Peggy's daughter Winter in New Paltz and then went on to Cape Cod and Martha's Vineyard. The weather at the coast has been cold and rainy for the last two months, but the two days we were at Oak Bluffs the sun was out for most of the day. It was wonderful. Eating on the road is a real adventure but it seems that I can find some soft food almost anywhere we go, in fact the seafood pastas { scallops, shrimp etc. } were really nice and I even had a hint of the taste of the seafood. Now that is something to be thankful for! Even though we did not get the news we had hoped for with the petscan last week, we are thankful that things are slowly moving on and in a few more months when we do another scan hopefully my throat will be in better shape so the scan can be more conclusive! For now I am not letting it cross my mind and am just enjoying being able to get out and enjoy all that summer has to offer !!! We saw a wonderful t shirt that we both really loved but unfortunately the store was closed and we were taking the first ferry off the island when we saw it. It said "Skinny men are sexy !!!", so I hope to make that my motto as I am trying to put some weight back on !
I am really excited about the week ahead. Tomorrow we go to Potsdam where I will be playing with the Susquehanna String band. On Tuesday night we play for the CYM music camp and on Wednesday and Thursday night its concerts with the Symphony of Northern NY, Wednesday in Potsdam and Thursday at the Clayton opera house. I am absolutely thrilled that I am able to do these dates, even though I will need to conserve my energy. In March during treatments I had no idea if I would even be able to consider these concert dates and now that it looks like a reality I could not be more thankful. I know how much work it will be in my current shape, but I am more than up for the challenge. The power of making wonderful music has always been my heart beat and as I start to come around from all of this I can appreciate it even more than ever. I hope we do get to see some of you in our travels this summer. Once again we are so thankful for all your support and encouragement. Have a wonderful week and a great July 4th holiday. And if you think about it take some time to be thankful for all that you have been blessed with, we are all truly blessed ! I'll look for you at 7:00.

Hi Dan,ReplyDelete
I am rooting for you! I see you every Columbus Day weekend at Sagamore. I wanted to write and ask you if you have seen a speech pathologist at all. That's what I do for a living and there may be some exercises you can do that will help with the swallowing. I know that's a very difficult and discouraging problem.

I'm glad you had a lovely trip, and that you are starting to be able to taste your food. That's a great sign!
I am also glad that you are starting to play again. I think it will help you heal because playing feeds your soul. I am sure it will be great for all of your fans to see you as well.
Great to hear you are out and about, and doing it eagerly! "On the Road Again!" You both continue to be in prayer, and I can't wait to see you guys along the trail somewhere this summer! Love and Hugs, Donna and JohnReplyDelete
I love the way the glass is always half full for you and Peggy! A taste of seafood, a breeze on the Cape, the energy and opportunity to make music together. Congratulations! Life is good and worth fighting for.ReplyDelete
lots of love,

My sister Kelly came upon the unfortunate news of your illness today while trying to track down your performance for this year at Allegany State Park. We (the Brockport and Allegany Dan Duggan Fan Club families)are all heartsick, but as I read your blog, I can see that you have made much progress and that your spirits are high. I have to believe that you are on life's most difficult journey and we all wish you well. We will send out our best sticky, ticky, tacky S'Mores coated vibes at 7:00 each evening for you! Incidently, the Mault extended family has walked in the Rochester area American Cancer Society's Relay For Life event for 13 years, primarily in memory of our mother, Sylvia and in honor of her sister, Eunice. We walked on June 5th in fact, in Spencerport. Sadly, the number of luminarias we purchase for famiy members and friends have increased steadily. We will continue to walk for HOPE and a CURE though each year and now, in your honor also. I can see the rainbow shining brightly as you complete your healing! Truly, I did see a rainbow today through all that rain... My best to you always, Dan and extra prayers will be telecommunicated for your complete recovery. Fondly, Tammy

Hey! Skinny guys ARE sexy!!! Don't let anyone tell you differently. (-:ReplyDelete
So, Bob and I send our good thoughts and prayers from Flaming Gorge (Rock Springs), Wyoming today. We're traveling the west for a few weeks but want to check in with you when we can get a computer connection. These beautiful and rugged mountains don't always have those modern conveniences.
Oh how I wish we could be at your concerts. It's such a great thing that you are now able to perform and be so fulfilled by the good energy music brings you. I play your CD "Jamcrackers" so often - very energizing. You're living your song "Simple Faith".......
God bless you both with a warm, happy, and musical summer. Keep that positive attitude! Will check in again from Colorado or Utah in a week or so.
Our love and prayers - Karen & Bob McCurdy
Hey Sexy Skiny Guy and Sexy Girl,ReplyDelete
Martha's Vineyard is one of my very favorite places - I was there with you in my mind and plotting how and when to go again. I haven't been there in years but have delicious memories of the way the light lays on the houses, on the water, on the bright colors of houses and sails, and the moonlight at night on the beach. And music...all part of the magical spiral of healing.
I have had interesting discussions about spirals recently - the spirals of DNA and how they come apart in illness and how they re-configure in healing, on how the mind can control and negotiate that healing in truly remarkable ways and how music can reach deep inside the mind and body, like a spiral, all part of the healing process. Yeats called the invisible interplay of the unknown between the spirit world and the waking world as controlled by "communicators,"; and Merrill, the poet, and Yeats, talked about the communicators transporting one through time in the guise of DNA spirals that moved back and forth, allowing us limitless possibility for being - and, taking it one step forward - healing.
Then I awoke from a dream in which I was walking down a staircase, focused with intention on the marble inset inside a newel post. Just upon waking I found myself in a fast downward spiral through the marble inset - like the children's story of traveling small into mitochodria - first confined in darkness and small spaces which opened out into light and beautiful vertical landscapes. I could slow down at will and visit any of these spaces, all of which contained cities, forests, water, and bright sunshine. What a fabulous journey into a healing place one could scribe within this vertical spiraling space. Like traveling through a seashell. If you picked one up in Martha's Vineyard, hold it, look at it, imagine yourself so small that you can travel inside it and then write music describing this journey.
We love you,
Wanda and Ron

Delaney and I have had such fun times camping on Martha's Vineyard. While you were in Oak Bluffs, I hope you sampled the homemade ice cream shops and the merry-go-round! I can just see you and Peggy strolling on the beach - hopefully catching a sunset or moonrise. We send you hugs for all the good news so far and the good news yet to come.ReplyDelete
love - Deborah & Delaney

The Girl called me today with an astounding announcement.
"Mom, I need to get a job."
She then launched into a list of reasons why she needed one and where she could get one and valiantly defended her position against any objections. There was only one problem.
I hadn't made any objections. How could I? The Girl wants to work! It's like a dream come true. I honestly thought this day would never come, the day when she did work on purpose. I think hard work is exactly what she needs, but that's why I don't hold out hope that she'll like it.
Of course, there are details to work out before she gets permission to get a job. She will have to keep good grades, which means doing homework on time and not a week late. She will have to save some portion of it. She will have to learn that money can only be spent once. And the real shock will be when she gets that first check, after having mentally spent the money a thousand ways, only to find out that the government has already taken its legal big bite of her hard-earned wages. Reality can be like an ice cold slap in the face.

When 'it' girl Kiki Lewis got the job as host of the Digicel Rising Stars Chill Room – the place where specially invited artistes and the contestants hang out each week on the popular talent hunt – it was a match made in heaven.Well, two seasons and one tell-all documentary later, Kiki has been given the boot.
The cutesy, media darling will not be chilling with the stars this season, according to reports.
Although the producers have not given any official statement, the general opinion of John Public is that Kiki's documentary in which she candidly speaks about spending time in prison overseas on drugs trafficking charges, played a major role in their decision.
It is expected that the Chill Room will remain, but a new host is definitely in the making.
The documentary, Our Very Own: Locked Up Abroad, produced by Advanced Media Productions, explores drug trafficking in Jamaica and shows Kiki as a misguided 18-year-old who made a bad choice.
Now an anti-drug trafficking advocate, Kiki is quoted as saying that she "shared private details of her past in an effort to deter the youth from making the same mistakes" that she made

The Official Website of Richard Reilly
Richard's WritingsRichard's Writings > The Balloon
The BalloonOn a pale yellow summer afternoon, two armies scampered across well-trimmed lawns.
"Da-da-da-da-da! I got ya!" And a body in shorts and polo shirt collapsed to the ground. Then he peeked and raised his head.
"Stay on the ground 'til I'm gone. You're dead," said the victor.
"Alright, alright," groaned the victim, who dropped his head back onto the turf and watched the clouds drift by overhead. He checked his gun. It needed more water.
A few hours later that very same afternoon a man who also once played the days away fought the rush hour traffic. He was impatient, and excited. A baby was coming. His wife had told him a half-hour ago, calling him at work with the test results. A baby! So he was rushing home, filled with anticipation and love. A happy symbol of his love for her bobbed on the ceiling beside him - a big bright silver-foil helium balloon. Silly, really. Just one of those special secrets couples share. He had given her a silver balloon on their very first date - how many years ago? And it had been his private signature to her ever since. Tonight they would have dinner before the fire - and champagne! Yes, champagne! They would bathe in it! He smiled at the traffic crawling along. A new brightness was coming to their home.
The balloon lived happily in a corner of the kitchen for several days and added its own little sparkle to the room. But eventually it began to droop, and the new mother broached the inevitable.
"Honey, you know how I love your gifts to me, but there comes a time when all good things come to an end. I don't want to pop that balloon, but ... "
"Hey, I have an idea. Why don't we take the balloon outside?"
They walked with the balloon out to the end of the driveway. The balloon tugged and danced against its ribbon, inflated by the warm sun and enticed by some passing breeze. It bobbed back and forth with impatience. They stood together holding the long yellow ribbon; in the balloon they saw their own reflections. Neither of them could quite let it go yet suddenly it sprang away. When they spotted it again, the balloon was already beyond the neighborhood. They stood quietly together watching it, content to follow its flight with their minds' eye even after it was lost to sight. Then they returned to decorating the baby's room.
In the haze of mid-morning, the perfect thing to do is lie in the shade of a sprawling oak and find camels and angels and faces in the clouds. Tommy and Kevin and the kids were stretched on the grass in various angles of repose, with their hands behind their heads and sneakers kicked off their feet. Just another lazy day in an endless summer. Away up against the clouds, Tommy thought something winked at him. There. It happened again. It was real, it was glowing, and it was drifting down towards them.
"Look, look!" He shouted, pointing and jumping up on bare feet. "A UFO! See?!?"
All the kids saw it. A shining globe was coming from the heavens, about to make contact. And why not? They knew aliens would prefer to meet first with Earth's kids. E.T. certainly did.
"It's not a UFO." declared Kathy.
"Could be. They are real, you know." Tommy insisted.
"I know that. But this is a balloon." And she stuck out her tongue at him to drive the point home.
Dragonflies flitted by while the balloon hovered over the neighborhood. As it neared the treetops and warm air, the helium expanded and its descent slowed. It finally slid down to ten feet and paused, a length of yellow ribbon trailing below. The kids stood in a circle below it, silent, all looking up.
"Where did it come from?" Someone asked, speaking for all.
"Don't know. Let's look closer -" Kathy said, reaching for the ribbon.
"Don't touch it!!" They all cried at once. Silently, in the shared empathy of young life, they all agreed: leave the balloon alone.
"Let's just see what happens," Tommy told Kathy.
"Alright," she replied, making a face. "Then get off my lawn. If you want to watch the stupid ol' balloon, do it from the street."
"Kathy!" they groaned. Someone said, "All talk - no action!"
"OK, you can stay if you pay me five cents."
But then, with that amazing timing of mothers everywhere, Kathy's mom called through the screen door, "Lunch time!" The kids fell apart like segments of an orange and scattered to their shady home kitchens and Kool-Aid.
Kids have an amazing ability to stretch a meal into hours; or, as today, they can cram a lunch into five minutes. Kevin was the first back, sucking on a cherry popsicle. He stopped short, his eyes wide. The balloon was in the danger zone -- the street! One by one the kids gathered on both sides of the street, still not daring to step from the curb into the road. The balloon was about six feet off the ground now, and the ribbon brushed the pavement. The gentle breeze of the morning was gone; the air stood heavy and still.
They heard it before they saw it -- a car coming down the block. A car! With one mind the kids swarmed into the street and gathered in front of the balloon. The car slowed in disbelief, then stopped. The kids stared back at the glare on the windshield. The sun baked the street. Silence, broken only by the sound of a rotating sprinkler.
Finally, without a word spoken or a horn blown, the car backed up twenty yards to the corner and turned down the side street. For a full minute there was only the hum and spit of mosquitoes and lawn sprinklers, then the gang suddenly burst into smiles and chatter.
Kathy's face glowed with triumph. One kid muttered, "I hope my Mom doesn't find out."
Their vigil now cemented by victory, the kids stood and guarded the balloon. It drifted lower, but it also drifted towards the far curb, and after a half-hour the balloon -- and the kids -- were safely out of the street. This was Tommy's lawn, and even Kathy didn't have to pay five cents to stay.
The afternoon passed as afternoons somehow manage to pass in the very middle of summertime. Big kids and little kids came and went. They played. They stopped the ice cream man.
And while the afternoon hours crept along the little guardians kept a vigilant eye on the balloon. It floated motionless, yet somehow sank lower and lower.
Fathers came home from work. The sun washed gold on the lawns, the trees, the houses - even the balloon blazed gold and orange. And at pace with the sun, the balloon too settled slowly but steadily towards the ground.
Supper is called. The balloon still floats quietly, now about a soccer ball's width above the lawn. The parents insist. The kids must tear themselves away.
"Meet'cha here after supper!" They laugh and call to each other as they scurry like rabbits to their dens. Alone now, the balloon mirrors the deep scarlet of the dwindling sun; the ribbon lies in a coil below. And like puppies, the kids soon return to play and wrestle with all their energy, before bedtime claims them. As the dark sets in, in pairs and packs, they break off their play and come to rest together around the balloon.
"How much?" "Soon. About a hand away."
"Blow on it - " "Naw! Don't cheat. It's almost there."
The sun hesitates a final moment before leaving, and the kids fall silent, staring at the violet balloon, waiting.
"Tommy!" A familiar voice calls.
"Kathy, come now. I know you hear me." calls another.
One by one, dragging heels and searching for excuses, the kids find themselves drawn towards home. The balloon hangs on a whisper, just a breath away from landing. Finally, only Eric is lying there, measuring again and again with his eye the tiny space between the grass tips and the dark orb floating just above.
"Eric!" Oh, just a little more time. It's almost down!
"Eric, don't make me look for you." Resistance yields. Eric kicks off his sneakers.
"Just a minute, I have to put my shoes on first."
He gives one last look at the deep blue balloon. He sees in it the stars awakening above and black leafy silhouettes waving gently against the stars. With a last look at another summer evening, Eric shuffles for home. The balloon is a deep royal blue now, and filled with twinkling stars. Alone, it touches the earth, and finally comes to rest.
The next morning dawns red and clear. High pitched voices ring through the still morning air, a call for the gathering of the clan. Today the kids are forming a club and this morning the club's first project is to make a map of the neighborhood. Later, someone might think of the balloon, but there won't be much to say. Yesterday, after all, is gone. There are clubs to join and maps to make today!

One police officer was killed and four policemen injured when gunmen attacked security forces stationed at a checkpoint on the road leading to St Catherine's Monastery on the foothill of Mount St Catherine's. An Interior Ministry statement issued on Tuesday evening said that masked gunmen shot at the checkpoint located some 800 metres from the monastery. The police shot back at the gunmen who fled; one of them left his automatic weapons behind because he had to help his wounded friends flee.
Daesh claimed responsibility for the attack. Even though the monastery was not touched, the proximity of the attack to the monastery was taken by many to mean it was the most recent in a string of attacks against Christians in Egypt. Sunday 9 April, which coincided with Palm Sunday, witnessed two suicide attacks against churches in Egypt; 46 lost their lives and scores were injured.
Watani contacted St Catherine's Monastery in Sinai, which is affiliated to the Greek Orthodox Church. Father Gregorios said that the monks and monastery were all safe and sound; they had heard the gunshots but were not aware where they came from or what they indicated.

It's official – the Winter 2014/2015 issue of Parenting Times magazine has hit the streets across Ottawa, and I have to credit my editor, Kelly Roesler, for putting together yet another lovely issue. If you haven't had the chance to pick up your copy, you can always flip through it virtually here (which is nearly as good…but makes it a bit harder to snuggle up with on chilly, winter days like today).
One of my writing highlights for this issue was getting the chance to speak with author Kristine Barnett, who wrote The Spark: A Mother's Story of Nurturing Genius. If you're looking for an inspiring read this Christmas season, it really is an incredible book – and in my Q&A article I had the chance to ask Barnett a bit more about her incredible journey with her son, Jacob, and her vast experience and insights in working with autistic children.
In this issue, I also contributed a lunchbox nutrition piece – chalk full of ideas from holistic nutritionist Stefania Moffatt about how to fuel your kids at school (page 58). In 'Focus on Education' I had the chance to explore the benefits of enrolling your child in theatre school, and in 'Just for Kids' I rounded up some of my fave toys to keep your little ones entertained indoors – on the coldest of snow days (page 54).
Last, but certainly not least, I was honoured to speak with some dedicated volunteers, current and former staff and alumni of CHEO for our 'Community Profile.' The highlight was talking to an incredible young man who survived cancer as a child – thanks to CHEO – and now lives an inspiring, athletic life with a prosthetic leg (he even teaches paraplegics to scuba dive!).
It's hard to believe an entire year has already flown by since I first started contributing to Parenting Times magazine! It's been a real honour to work with such a positive, encouraging editor and dedicated staff – and I've honestly enjoyed every piece I've had the opportunity to write. I hope you enjoy reading it as much as I love being a small part of it.

To some, the word "landfill" conjures thoughts of garbage and waste.
But to others, the word has a different meaning… energy.
On Wednesday, PSE&G announced that it filed a request with the New Jersey Board of Public Utilities (NJBPU) to extend its "Solar 4 All" program, which utilizes rooftops, parking lots, utility poles and landfills/brownfields for large-scale, grid connected solar projects.
If approved, the extension will allow the company to invest about $275 million to design and construct an additional 100 megawatts of grid-connected solar capacity on landfills and brownfields in New Jersey by the end of 2021, according to PSE&G news release.
Currently, the Solar 4 All project operates more than 150,000 solar panels at eight landfill and brownfield solar farms on 170 acres of landfill and brownfield space, PSE&G stated.
The proposed extension would nearly triple the amount of landfill and brownfield solar that PSE&G will own and operate in New Jersey, company officials stated.
