LOS ANGELES — As part of the Clinton Global Initiative (CGI) conference held at LA City Hall recently, Mayor Eric Garcetti joined President Bill Clinton for a discussion on investing in resilient infrastructure and announced that the U.S. Green Building Council will move its 2016 Greenbuild International Conference and Expo from San Diego to Los Angeles.
"I was very pleased to hold the CGI 21st Century Infrastructure and Innovation for a Resilient Economy Conference in Los Angeles, which is setting a great example in reducing greenhouse gas emissions and creating a more resilient city, while saving money for taxpayers," said former President Bill Clinton. "Today's conference gives us the opportunity to share best practices across cities and states on how to improve and maintain key infrastructure in a cost-effective way."
"It was an honor to host President Clinton and the Clinton Global Initiative at City Hall today, and a perfect opportunity to announce that we'll be hosting the Greenbuild International Conference and Expo, which will bring 30,000 visitors to Los Angeles" said Mayor Eric Garcetti. "Our city is leading the way when it comes to making meaningful investments in a sustainable future, including retrofitting 140,000 street lights with more efficient LED bulbs, and the world is taking note."
The Clinton Global Initiative America was established in June 2011 and addresses economic recovery in the United States. Under President Clinton it brings together leaders in business, government and society to help create jobs, stimulate economic growth and support workforce development in America. Since its inception, it has made more than 300 commitments valued at more than $15 billion.
Clinton pointed out that he felt "the one thing that I think has the best chance of destroying this political polarization in America is grassroots public-private partnerships.
"When people get up in the morning, when they think tomorrow is going to be just like yesterday, they are much more vulnerable to the siren song of politics," Clinton added.
As Garcetti also observed regarding the deplorable state of infrastructure including Los Angeles to "fail forward" is not an option and among the new initiatives is installing solar panels and Wi-Fi hot spots on the new street lamps.
Oh, and as an aside, the busy Garcetti also penned a note off to CBS CEO Les Moonves asking his network to bring the next CBS late show to Los Angeles from its current location once David Letterman vacates his office and stupid pet tricks. We'll have to see which infrastructure the new host wants, New York or Los Angeles.

And so, I've taken it upon myself to educate the masses in office refrigerator etiquette.
- Try to pack your lunch so that it takes up a minimum of refrigerator real estate
- Make every effort to place your lunch in a clear space
- If you must move things around to make room for your own lunch, be gentle
- If you absolutely have to stack lunches, put the squishy stuff on top. Put the sandwich on top of the tupper wear
Remember kids, only you can prevent squished sandwiches.

Breaking News: Leaders seal the 'Peace Deal'
Posted by Ram Kumar Shrestha on November 1, 2011
KATHMANDU, NOV 01 – The peace process that was started five years ago in 2006 is likely to witness its logical conclusion. The meeting of the top brass leaders of the major political parties—Nepali Congress, CPN-UML, UCPN (Maoist) and the Samyukta Loktantrik Madhesi Morcha—on Tuesday agreed on contentious issues of the peace process and sealed the deal.
UML leader Bhim Rawal publicised the deal amid a press conference organised at the Prime Minister Baburam Bhattarai's official residence in Baluwatar.
Maoist Chairman Pushpa Kamal Dahal, NC President Sushil Koirala and UML Chairman Jhala Nath Khanal signed on the pact at PM's residence.
According to highly placed source, the leaders have agreed to integrate 6,500 former Maoist combatants into the Nepal Army in an individual basis. Likewise, the rehabilitation package has been agreed upon Rs. 500,000 to Rs. 800,000 as per the rank of the combatants, the source added.
Meanwhile, Maoist Chairman Pushpa Kamal Dahal is trying to take his deputy Mohan Baidya—leader of the party's hardliner faction—into confidence.
As soon as Baidya agrees, the leaders are close to signing a peace deal, sources said.
Likewise, the leaders have reached an understanding to form a technical panel for the rank determination of the combatants.
Big three parties hold separate meetings
Separate meetings of the major three political parties are underway at the official residence of Prime Minister Baburam Bhattarai in Baluwatar, Kathmandu.
Earlier, the top brass leaders of the major three—Nepali Congress (NC), CPN-UML and the UCPN (Maoist)—had convened a meeting to find common grounds on the issues regarding peace process, constitution-writing and power sharing.
According to sources, the parties are expected to endorse the earlier agreement forged in the top brass leaders' meeting. The leaders had not elaborated the decision of their earlier meeting. However, the leaders had said that their meeting ended with a positive note.
Big three top guns meet ends with positive note
A meeting of the top brass leaders of the major three parties – UCPN (Maoist), Nepali Congress (NC) and the CPN-UML – have ended with a positive note on Tuesday.
The meeting was held at the Hotel Radisson in the Capital on Tuesday to find common grounds on the issues regarding peace process and power sharing.
The next meeting of the leaders has been scheduled later today at the official residence of Prime Minister Baburam Bhattarai in Baluwatar, Kathmandu.
Earlier, the Monday's meeting of the big three had shouldered Maoist Chairman Pushpa Kamal Dahal, NC President Sushil Koirala and UML Chairman Jhala Nath Khanal to find solutions to the contentious issues on peace process, statute-drafting and power sharing.
Along with the party-chiefs, Krishna Prasad Sitaula of the NC, Barsha Man Pun of the Maoist and Bhim Rawal of the UML were also present at the meeting.

I'm not the first and won't be the last to rant about O2 Ireland. Here's my experience:
Dec bought me an iPhone, most fab XmasBirthday present ever. It's prepay, so I am free from contracts and plan to unlock it to switch network.
Dec 26: Pop my mums billpay O2 sim into it to have some fun.
Dec 27: Purchase O2 prepay sim to tie me over till unlocking
Dec 28: Mum receives text from O2 - cost effective data bundle added to your bill, €7.50 p/m.
Jan 2: Mum gets same text again, shows it to me, I say "you never asked for it, get rid of it." Into O2 shop, queue for 30 mind to be told call 1909.
Jan 3: Call 1909, told to keep the add on to save on data charges as she spent €70 that week. Jaw drops.
Jan 6: Receive text from O2, on prepay Im charged 99c per day up to 50mb download allowance.
So it's 'cheaper' to use data on prepay? Why not the same cap on billpay? How are they allowed to add on extras to their customers bills without asking them first? I'm not letting this go. If anything, they should at least get the message they're robbing people blind and can't get away with it with every misfortunate customer.
Advice on where to start with my complaint would be great btw.

When the plane crashed on Lockerbie, there was no national minute's silence.
After the bomb in Warrington, no minute's silence.
After the Dunblane primary school massacre, no minute's silence.
Yet......after the Tunisian gunman went crazy and killed
30 British holidaymakers....we had a minute's silence.
Don't get me wrong, I have every sympathy for the families who have lost loved ones. However, I might be being terribly cynical, but what is the government trying to distract our attention from? If they have not deemed loss of multiple lives a reason for a minute's silence before, why now?
Just think about it.
No, I don't have any answers, but it smacks of distraction tactics to me.

Getting comfortable and not caring.
I know the reason why I haven't been losing more weight. I'm getting comfortable at my weight right now. I'm at the weight I was in college and my clothes that were too small are fitting again. It feels great to be able to wear jeans I haven't worn in over a year. I thought I was being silly when last spring I moved a bunch of clothes that were too small.
On Saturday, while doing laundry I needed a pair of jeans to wear out of the apartment. The only jeans I had are way too big. I could pull them down with them buttoned and zipped. I slid a belt on and kept those suckers on.
I'm proud of how far I've come, but I am not happy with my weight right now. I have a beautiful wedding dress to slim down one size to fit into. I had a dream last night I recieved a phone call from the bridal shop letting me know my dress was in and I needed to come in for my first fitting. I woke up terrified and immediately checked my phone to see if that was indeed true. Thankfully, it is not. But. I still need to lose more weight to fit into that gorgeous white dress. I really can't wait to wear it. My mom will agree, it's pretty damn awesome.
I know what it takes to lose weight. I just need to do it. It's a motivation issue. I wish I could slap the picture of my wedding dress all over to keep reminding me that if I don't work on the weight loss, it is not going to fit. Every morning in my half sleep daze of turning my alarms on my cell phone off, I look at the pictures my mom took of me in the dress. Every. Single. Morning. I can't have pictures of my wedding dress laying around my apartment though, so not posting it everywhere. I definitely do not want Sean to see it.
Any motivation tips?
P.S. Sean we're working out tonight. I might be running...

I am very impressed with your success so far; you have motivated me to get out and exercise more, too. We need to get together soon so you can push my baby around! And Spring is always a great motivator.
When I used to have more money I would buy these gardening/recipe books with beautiful pictures that have mostly healthy recipes in; well they all have vegetables or fruit in them... which kind of goes along with the fact that you will hopefully be gardening this year. I highly recommend "pretty delicious" by Candice Kumai, which is healthy, trendy and fun (but actually not a gardening book).

I am having the same motivation issues. I got out the Just Dance 3 yesterday. I did a half hour of that and half hour of Wii Fit. It helped to get off the couch and move. I got back on the Wii fit today too. hHere is a cool quote on my Pinterest page. Check it out.

Here is an interesting piece of video reporting by Al-Jazeera English. The channel's journalists travelled to Belarus in order to see how media function in the so-called "last European dictatorship". They not only talked to the representatives of the independent media outlets like "Nasha Niva" (they even feature some video taken by "Nasha Niva" journalists), but also interviewed Pavel Yakubovich, Editor-in-Chief of "Belarus Segodnya", the larges daily newspaper in Belarus, a mouthpiece of President Lukashenka.
In the second part of the Al-Jazeera report the Belarusian music scene is being scrutinized:

■ REBA'S ALREADY PLANNING HER OUTFITS FOR UPCOMING ACM AWARDS: Reba will be returning as hostess of the Academy of Country Music Awards again this year. We asked the superstar what she does to prepare for the hosting gig. "It takes a lot of hard work and preparation to be ready for a successful hosting job at the ACMs," notes Reba. "The first order of business are the outfits I wear. [My stylist] Terry Gordon and I work together on designing my looks for the evening, which wind up to be five outfits we design. I will probably only wear four but that gives us a little wiggle room. The next order of business is the script. I have wonderfully talented writers who invent witty things for me to say. Just like with my music, where would I be without the songwriters? Where would I be without my script writers? To make it a smooth running show, I have to listen to the directors and stretch when we're running ahead of schedule and make my intro's short and sweet when we're running behind. Live TV is a blast and I love it!!!!"
■ JIMMY WAYNE NOTES A SACRIFICE OF BEING A SERIOUS GUITARIST—LONG FINGERNAILS: Being the great guitarist that he is, one thing that Jimmy Wayne must maintain a bit longer on one hand than the other are his finger nails. What proves a real sacrifice for his art, we asked Jimmy what the difference is between using a guitar pick versus his finger nails in creating the sound he is looking for. "I have to admit that I'm embarrassed at times when someone notices my three finger nails on my right hand," recalls the singer, who is currently on his Meet Me Halfway walk, crossing America on foot to bring awareness to teen homelessness. "Luckily when I'm asked about them, it gives me the opportunity to explain. It's when they don't ask but assume they know why they are long that makes me feel awkward! I can't initiate the conversation cause that's weird also. I use these fingernails to pick my guitar. Finger picking allows me to pick out notes and patterns. Strumming is one big wash of a chord. However, strumming is necessary at times, especially in the chorus of a song. It gives you that full, big sound. I practice a lot, usually scales. You have to stay on top of your guitar playing or you'll become rusty very fast."
■ JEWEL TEAMS WITH COUNTRY FINANCIAL FOR NATIONAL PROMOTION: Financial planning firm Country Financial is teaming with country artists Jason Aldean and Jewel for the "Road Trips and Guitar Picks" series, which will present 30 concerts beginning in March.

Card payment processor Network International, which is owned by Abraaj Capital and Dubai's largest bank, said on Sunday it has bought a majority stake in an online remittance firm held by a unit of India's biggest media group.
Network International CEO Bhairav Trivedi said the purchase of a stake in TimesofMoney, a unit of India's Times Group, was a prelude to further acquisitions by the Dubai-based firm.
He declined to give the exact size of the stake nor financial terms of the deal but said it was within the industry average of ten to 15 times earnings before interest, tax, depreciation and amortisation (EBITDA).
"Our strategy is to become the dominant payments player in the Gulf Cooperation Council, Africa, South Asia and Southeast Asia," Trivedi said at a press conference.
"We have a significant amount of money set aside and we will be active in the next couple of years. When we look at acquisitions, they will be complementary services across these geographies," Trivedi said.
He said the firm was looking for technology in certain areas such as mobile payments, pre-pay cards and home delivery payments.
Network International is 49 percent owned by private equity house Abraaj Capital and 51-percent held by Emirates NBD .
Dubai-based Abraaj has been expected to offload its stake in the card payment processor, either through a public listing in either London or Hong Kong or a private sale, Trivedi said. However, there were no plans in place at the current time, he added.
Deloitte, FT Advisors Ltd and AZB & Partners advised Network International, while UBS, PricewaterhouseCoopers and Nishith Desai Associates assisted Times Internet Limited, TimesofMoney's previous owner.For all the latest banking and finance news from the UAE and Gulf countries, follow us on Twitter and Linkedin, like us on Facebook and subscribe to our YouTube page, which is updated daily.

John Wayne Wallpapers
John Wayne (May 26, 1907 – June 11, 1979) was an Academy Award- and Golden Globe Award-winning American film actor. He epitomized rugged masculinity and has become an enduring American icon. He is famous for his distinctive voice, walk and height. He was also known for his conservative political views and his support in the 1950s for anti-communist positions.
In 1999, the American Film Institute named Wayne 13th among the Greatest Male Stars of All Time. A Harris Poll released in 2007 placed Wayne third among America's favorite film stars,[1] the only deceased star on the list and the only one who has appeared on the poll every year

This week (and probably next) definitely goes down as a case of work interfering with real life. I haven't had much time for anything else and depending on how things go today... I could either be breathing a little easier next week, or staying up half the night worrying from now til next Friday, when I am due to give a big presentation.
Time will tell.
Before I got so sucked into the work vortex that I have little time left for my family, who really deserve my time the most, I spent roughly three weeks playing approximately 504,392 rounds of Candyland with the kids. Mallory received this gift for Christmas and I am glad that she did - it is the perfect first board game for little kids. It's enough to make any parent go batshit crazy after being asked to play round after round after round of it, mind you, but at least it's keeping the little ones entertained.
In all honesty, I really do like this game. It's easy enough for the kids to have gotten the hang of it after a single game. You draw cards to move around the board. There are a few squares you can land on that make you miss a turn or else take a shortcut to move ahead. And then there are the candy cards, which are wildcards really, and they can move you anywhere on the board. This can be a good thing or a bad thing, depending on which candy card you draw and how early or late in the game it is.
There is a stipulation in the rules of the game that you don't have to enforce backward-moving candy cards on young game players, but I wouldn't have it any other way. Sometimes your luck is good and sometimes it stinks. Welcome to real life, kids. We have had a few tears when someone is on the brink of winning and then draws the candy cane card, which sends you back to the very first leg of the board, but these days the kids are generally pretty good sports about moving backwards as well as forwards. I'm sure this is due in large part to a game in which Liam was poised to win when he drew the candy cane card, and on his very next turn drew the ice cream cone card, which is the candy card closest to the finish line. In other words, he wound up right back where he started and still managed to win the game. Now they can see that things can change on a dime and it ain't over til it's over.
If nothing else, this game will open up a whole big world of cliches for them. And that's a life lesson right there.

This scrumptious looking card came to me from Switzerland recently. Jacqueline sent it to me and it is cool because she has a connection to Japan!
She wrote,"こんにちは [Konnichiwa], I'm the mother of two adult children (F 25, M 23). My daughter is living in Chiba studying Japanese in Tokyo. I'll visit her in July, I'm very looking forward. Since Aug. I'm learning Japanese. My daughter still misses the Swiss chocolate. So I have to send her some from time to time. Ja mata Jacqueline"

My Latest Kosher Disney Experience: Biergarten – Part II
We arrived late Thursday night/ early Friday morning at the Boardwalk, and after waking in the morning I sent my family to the Studios while I pick up my race packet at Wide World of Sports. As the day came to an end, my kids & I took a Friendship boat back to our room while my wife was finishing up her pre-Shabbat spa experience at Mandara across Crescent Lake. I knew that this would be the last time to secure the kosher meals, since the actual 24-hour mark would take place during a time I would no longer be able to call it in.
Usually, I would call the Dining line to get this done, but since I was staying on the Concierge Level, I figured I would give this Concierge perk a whirl. I sent the kids to the lounge for some Sprite while I sat at the Concierge desk and placed my orders with the Cast Member. She called Disney Dining herself with me present just to make sure we got it right. All seemed set and we entered Shabbat with the only concern in my mind being whether I'd make it through all 26 miles on Sunday.
(On a side note, while this Concierge Cast Member was friendly and helpful for this task, she was completely the opposite when we brought up the blaring horns of the Friendship boats outside our window into the late Extra Magic Hours at Epcot. Other CM's were very helpful, but she made it seem like we were deranged for not enjoying the privilege of listening to that pleasantly loud sound as our children lay awake well past their bedtime.)
Fast forward to Marathon Sunday: Both my friend and I finish the marathon in good time and running to the finish line. After eating lunch with my family in Epcot – microwaved ziti & eggplant parm from our room with soda from Club Cool while sitting at the outdoor tables at Fountain View – I went back to the room to shower & change and meet back in World Showcase.
However, when I got to the room, I had a surprise voice mail on my phone…
"Hi, Mr. Haller, this is the Chef at Biergarten. I understand you require eight kosher meals. We need to know what your food requests are so that we can prepare the meal for you on time. Please give me a call back at…"
I got this message at 3 pm – only three hours before the ADR.
What the heck happened to the orders I placed? If I call it in now, will it be too late? They say they usually need many hours to thaw the meals. If it wont work out, will we be able to get a refund? If it will work out, what do I tell him since I no longer have everyone's orders?!
I called the Chef, and he was the most pleasant CM voice I encountered that trip. He assured me it wouldn't be a problem – the 24 hours thing is an "exaggeration" of how much time they need. So, I gave him our orders to the best of my memory.
Crisis averted. But this experience taught me a few lessons:
1. While Disney requires 24 hours notice for kosher meals, the actual people preparing the food do not.
2. The differences in kosher menus given to me by the CM on the phone is a computer issue, not a dining establishment issue. (See previous blog post.) The Chef assured me that any restaurant in World Showcase that has kosher meals has access to the same kosher menus.
3. Make your kosher orders prior to 24 hours, but it may be good practice to call the dining location directly to confirm they got the orders.
So, after cleaning up and getting dressed for dinner, I walked back to World Showcase and, after taking in some attractions and enjoying the entertainment, we met our friends in Germany. We were seated approximately 10 minutes after arriving.
Next time, I'll share the actual meal experience…
My Latest Kosher Disney Experience: Biergarten – Part I
Back in January 2011, I had a new kosher dining experience in Walt Disney World. Prior to this visit, the only kosher experiences I've had were counter service meals and character breakfast buffets. But this trip was different. This wasn't just a bring-the-kiddies-to-watch-Dad-act-like-one-of-them trips. I'm running a marathon. My first marathon. A Disney marathon. This was unlike any trip I had taken before, and it deserved something different and special.
So, I decided that I was going to set up a post-race, celebratory dinner in Epcot.
Why Epcot? Is it because of the unique international culinary cuisine of World Showcase? Nope. The dining experience of World Showcase is fairly lost on the kosher park-hopper. (Don't get me started on my rant about World Showcase changing from the international, multicultural attraction is was in the 1980's to the "Food Court Around the World" it is today. Maybe for another day…) No, it was because my family and my running buddy's family would be spending the day in Epcot after crossing the finish line, and location was king for this meal.
So, a few weeks prior to my trip, I called the Advanced Dining Reservation line for WDW to make a dinner reservation for two families – four adults and four kids. Since the cuisine doesn't matter – table service kosher meals are all the same no matter the venue – I was most interested in having something to wow everyone, and the only attraction in a table service restaurant in Epcot I could think of is Chef Remy at Les Chefs de France. The Cast Member on the other end of the ADR line reminded me that Sundays is the rodent chef's day off, so I no longer had any real preference as to where to plant ourselves for our "feast."
However, when discussing our other options for dinner venue, something unexpected happened. The Cast Member started telling me the differences among the restaurants regarding the kosher menus. Differences? There's a stash of kosher meals in a freezer and they thaw out what you order within 24 hours of your reservation (which is why kosher meals are the only meals in the parks that have a full penalty for cancelling within 24 hours). Why would there be differences? For example, she told me that while San Angel Inn in Mexico had the Honey Glazed Chicken, Ginger Glazed Salmon and Lasagna meals, Rose & Crown in the U.K. had those three meals plus Brisket of Beef. This made no sense to me, but I assumed it was a computer thing and not an actual food or restaurant issue (evidence would come later to prove my thinking correct). I decided not to force the issue and I'd play along.
I asked the helpful Cast Member, "Okay, which table service restaurant has the most options available for our kosher menu?"
The answer?
You got it. Of all places, Germany was the place where kosher-eating Jews can have the widest selection of kosher meals. So, eight Jews were going to descend on the Bavarian Village in the Germany Pavilion and have glatt kosher meals served to them by Deutschstämmige servers while celebrating with the traditional Oktoberfest band. Insert your own comment about the irony.
And so the ADR was solidified. Dinner for eight at Biergarten in Epcot for our post-marathon celebration. However, I didn't leave my orders for meals yet for two reasons:
1. I needed to get everyone's requests.
2. Just in case I would need to cancel, I didn't want to leave my credit card with Disney just yet.
All I would need to do is call in our orders at some point before the 24 prior mark and we'd be good to go.
Stay tuned…
Shabbat of Magic
Considering how much the Disney Parks are my passion, I actually don't get to go there as much as one would think. Finally, for the first time in three years, I made it back to Walt Disney World. I picked up my family and we went for Marathon Weekend. This weekend was filled with new and interesting – and emotionally explosive – experiences, and I'll be sharing with you some of those.
I've been visiting WDW since February 1981, but a Shabbat stay is a rarity. I had only been there once over Shabbat: 1998, with my wife. We stayed officially "off property" at one of the Downtown Disney Resort hotels. It was lovely – we were able to walk all along the Disney West Side and Marketplace during the day (but not through Pleasure Island because one couldn't get on the island without admission back then) and we could see some fireworks off in the way distance from our balcony Friday night. Fabulous… but not on property.
This was going to be the weekend when I stay within the lovely confines of the magic. I made my reservations a while back when the discounts for this time period were first announced. The arrival of discounts pretty much assured one thing for us:
Deluxe resort.
Typically, during the week, I really don't care where I stay on property. I love having easier access for transportation (boat right up to entrance to Magic Kingdom from Wilderness Lodge, walk to Epcot & Studios from the Epcot resorts, etc.), but beyond that, I'm cool with just staying anywhere inside the magic. However, I am a firm believer that if we are going to be staying at a resort over Shabbat – Disney or otherwise – it's worth making sure that resort will enhance the day. But which one?
Animal Kingdom Lodge? Too isolated.
Wilderness Lodge? Just did that last trip.
The three monorail resorts? Would be great, but can't really hotel hop on Shabbat (unless you use the monorail – see a previous post). Also, the discounts weren't as great for those.
Deluxe Villa resorts? Not necessary.
That left Beach Club/Yacht Club and Boardwalk. Since Stormalong Bay was going to be under construction, I figured I'd save that spot for another trip in the future.
Boardwalk Inn for us! But I decided to step it up a bit and ignore something that I had always believed:
Concierge Level is not worth it, especially for the kosher traveler.
Why ignore the above statement and splurge, you ask?
1. With the discount, the additional cost was not as outrageous as usual.
2. It can make Shabbat easier and more pleasant with the lounge available.
So, that was it. Done. We'll see if I made the right decision.
The family and I arrived at the Boardwalk on Thursday night… actually, Friday at 2 a.m. We were quite impressed with the room, and then I opened the curtains and looked out on our balcony. Whoa. Big smiles.
Want to see our balcony? Look at this picture of the Flying Fish Cafe sign:
You see that large balcony just above the upper right hand corner of the sign? Yeah, that was us. Room 4216. We had quite the view of the entire Crescent Lake and Boardwalk. Aside from the horns blowing from the boats during the day, it was absolutely perfect.
Here's the western view from the balcony:
Back to the point: Shabbos. We took the boat back from Hollywood Studios to the Boardwalk to prep for candle lighting. Our concierge got us a microwave so we could warm up our dinner that we brought with us. (I was told on the phone that the Innkeeper's Lounge would have a microwave for us to use there, but no such luck. We did grab some soft drinks and beer from there.) We set up a table out on our fabulous balcony and had a wonderful Shabbat dinner to the sounds of the background music and light hustle of the crowd below. We took a nice, post-dinner stroll along the Boardwalk, watched some street performers, and then moved back up to the Innkeeper's Lounge to watch Illuminations from the balcony there. While we could only see the top of the fireworks and lasers, it was a nice "kiss goodnight," but the wind chill was picking up so we quit midway through the show.
Saturday morning, I woke up first and "went to shul" on the balcony, while the wife and kids went to the Innkeeper's Lounge for kiddush & breakfast. (Club Level pays off!) While the pastries and bagels were not certified kosher (believe me, I checked), the cereals, yogurts and drinks were. [Always check for yourself, since things may change without notice.] I was concerned about getting into the lounge over Shabbat because guests require electronic key access to get in (a no-no for sabbath observers), but there was almost always a concierge cast member there letting guests in without the need of swiping a card.
Afterwards, we decided to take a morning walk all around Crescent Lake. We walked up to the International Gateway entrance to Epcot to try to catch a glimpse of the Half Marathon. We watched the football fans in jerseys lining up by the ESPN Club to get tables for the NFL Playoff games. We stopped by the Beach Club, and the kids planted themselves in the sand to play for an hour. We toured Stormalong Bay and checked out Beaches & Cream. We congratulated those wearing their Donald medals proudly. We enjoyed the Boardwalk scenes, sounds and smells (I love sniffing by the funnel cake stand).
After lunch in the room, we just relaxed by the pool. The theme of the pool there is quite fun, and it was well worth a stop there. They had an activity for kids at 2:30 by the pool, which kept my kids occupied for a while I rest my legs in anticipation for the coming run.
We strolled around the hotel and enjoyed the theme and exhibits of the lobby, and finally we relaxed back at Innkeeper's until it was time for havdalah.
Disney's Boardwalk Inn provided us the absolutely most wonderful Shabbat experience. We were able to both relax and be entertained the entire time. The comfort level was perfect for Shabbat. There was plenty to see and do within walking distance, and the Innkeeper's Club access just gave us that additional comfort level that I was hoping for. My first Shabbat experience on property was top notch, and I cannot wait to do it again… albeit at a different resort. Not because the Boardwallk was deficient in any way, but rather because I'd love to have a equally magical experience of a different flavor in the future.
Before this weekend, I felt that the kosher guest didn't really need to make a point to visit the Boardwalk, as it is mainly a dining location. (Unless you want to have a night out at Jellyrolls?) However, I have found that this spot serves excellently as an attraction for Shabbat if you can stay at any one of the Crescent Lake resorts.
Plus, I maintain that it would be the perfect location for a dedicated kosher dining location!
So, what is the answer?!
A while back, one Saturday morning in synagogue, the Rabbi got up to the podium and began his sermon discussing the Walt Disney World monorail. Obviously, I sat up in my chair and my ears perked up. This was one sermon I wasn't going to doze off in.
He tells us about how a friend came up to him and asked him about an issue he had with an upcoming family vacation. He was going to be staying at one of the WDW hotels (he didn't say which one, to my dismay), and he wanted to know if he was allowed to board and ride the monorail on Shabbat (Sabbath).
I thought that was an interesting question. There was no fare to pay, no combustion engine to turn on and off, no motion sensors in the doors. However, there was a driver (which meant it wasn't automatic, like a Shabbat elevator). I was so curious to see where this Shabbat morning sermon was going.
However, the sermon then too a different turn. He went on to discuss how we see Shabbat in our lives, what Shabbat means to us as individuals and as a community, blah blah blah…
What is the answer?! You cannot expect me to stick with the rest of this speech without delving into the aspects of the Walt Disney World monorail and Shabbat. Now, I'm spending the rest of the sermon with my mind wandering throughout the WDW resort property, trying to find other interesting halachic questions and challenges that may arise. I'm also daydreaming about staying at one of the Monorail resorts and spending my Shabbat afternoon hotel hopping between the Contemporary, Grand Floridian and Polynesian…
Of course, if I am allowed to.
I can always just ask my Rabbi to find the answer, but this is not going to turn into a Jewish legal essay on the pros and cons of the Monorail as melacha. I guess, if (or when) the time comes for me to spend Shabbat at one of these three resorts, I'll begin my search for the answer. For now, since the plans are not in my immediate future, I'll let the enigma remain an enigma.
Because I plan to spend my first Shabbat on Walt Disney World property at the Boardwalk Resort… Want to join me for dinner?
What is a Jew to do during the "Very Merry" months at the Disney Parks?
Okay, so it has been a year since I've been here. It sure is tough keeping blogs moving. I apologize for being MIA, but I knew I needed to be back right now because of the changing of the seasons. "Now, hang on to them hats and glasses…"
Since Halloween is over, you know what that means in the Disney Parks? Yup, it's Christmas time. Even though the World Series was still going on, it's time to get the parties in the Magic Kingdom set up for all those flocking to see the decorations, hear the jingles of "Jingle Bells" down Main Street, and smell the gingerbread concoctions made by the Disney chefs. However, while most of the die hard fans are planning their Candlelight Processional plans, the Jewish Disney parks fan is stuck in the ultimate dilemma.
How does the Jew handle the intense "Christmasification" of the Disney parks?
Halloween doesn't present as much of a quandary. In Orlando, most of it is focused in the Magic Kingdom, with the full brunt of the holiday coming at you during the hard ticket event – Mickey's Not So Scary Halloween Party. It's easy to overlook it and still get that typical Disney feel you can get the rest of the year. In Anaheim, you have a similar situation, except for the changing over of the Haunted Mansion into the Nightmare Before Christmas overlay. Aside from those HM traditionalists, it really ain't that bad.
But Christmas time (which starts right now) is a full fledged onslaught of yuletide cheer and joy to the world. The traditional music of Main Street changes from "Flitterin'" to "It's a Holly Jolly Christmas." The characters at meet & greets wear their Santa caps. "it's a small world" in Disneyland gets its annual "holiday" face lift. Disney Hollywood Studios get overrun by the masses yearning for that best spot for the Osbourne lights. The resorts become pilgrimage sites for Christmas decoration tourists.
It's everywhere. And as the "Wandering Jew in the Parks," none of this is meant for you.
Oh, sure. Point out the menorah in the Osbourne lights, the Jewish mother-type Chanukah storyteller in World Showcase, and the brief "I had a Little Dreidel" token ditty in the Candlelight Processional. That is clearly a token for us, but it might as well be scrapped from the holiday menu in the parks. (You'd be better off cutting costs by cutting this, rather than the Lights of Winter in Epcot.)
It is Christmas time here and we all know it. Jews included.
So, what is the Son of Israel to do?
Do we protest Disney's clear favoring of one religious group over all others? I say – absolutely not. There are too many people out there that need this to make Disneyland/WDW that much more magical and pleasant during this time of year. Plus, it's a big time money maker for them. Welcome to America. Christmas time is Christmas time – just like it is in any mall or, like my home town, the streets of New York City. It is what it is. It's here and it's staying, and I got no beef with it whatsoever.
What does that leave us with? I see three options:
1. Go visit the parks and move along pretending none of the Christmas stuff is happening around you.
2. Embrace the "Christmas-ness" as a thing a beauty, even though it doesn't have that particular connection to your soul.
3. Avoid visiting the parks from November 1 through the first weekend in January at all costs.
To each his or her own. For me, as a fairly hard core Disney parks traditionalist, I need to pick #3. I need Main Street U.S.A. to have that atmosphere I know and love. I need my picture with Pluto without a Santa cap on. I want to go on "it's a small world" and hear only one incredibly repetitive (borderline irritating) song – not two.
I want my Disneyland and Walt Disney World. I can't have it any other way, including a Christmas overlay.
And I am fine with that.
In the meantime, during this "holiday season" of Disney, I hope to reach out to the other Disraelites out there in the interweb so we have something to keep us inspired and entertained as the rest of the Disney fan world is on the phone with Disney dining stressing over which location to book for the Candlelight Processional dinner package. And when the time comes, look up at the windows in the resorts and see if you can find the solitary lights of a menorah.
Giving thanks to the Disney parks…
Happy Thanksgiving!
What shall I be thankful for? Too many things to count, thank G*d, but let's keep it with the theme here.
While visiting the Magic Kingdom and EPCOT Center in the 1980's, we didn't really think about how we were going to fuel up for and during the day. We were a "commando-style" family to the max. Stopping for lunch was a no-no, and taking a break during the day to swim or nap was heresy. As a family who kept to a kosher diet (albeit with some leniencies that I've dropped over the years), the Disney dining experience just wasn't happening for us. So, our food-for-fuel consisted of a big breakfast at the hotel (likely cereal & bagels), a snack during midday (Mickey bar, popcorn, etc.), and something for dinner. We'd pick up some nosh at a counter service spot that was deemed kosher enough for us, and made do (or we had more popcorn, ice cream, etc.). Again, food was for fuel purposes only in the Magic Kingdom – not for the nutritional value, and surely not for the culinary experience. It worked well for us and we liked it. We never felt we were missing out at all.
Decades go by, and I find myself in Anaheim for a conference, and my wife and 1 ½ year old daughter come along for a Disneyland experience. Because she is so young, she doesn't "get it" as much as we'd hoped. So, we think out of the box: why not a character meal? It's expensive considering we would be able to eat much at all, but two things convince us to give it a go:
• Breakfast is the easiest way to go for the kosher traveler
• My daughter is the biggest fan of Minnie I could imagine
So, off to the PCH Grill at the Paradise Pier hotel. Total success! The smile on her face was incredible. It was an experience that was totally new for me, let alone her. I was convinced of the character meal dining experience.
So, what is new at Disney World when I go back in 2005 after a long hiatus? Kosher meals! Happy day! We did kosher meals for character dining at Crystal Palace in 2005 and Tusker House in 2008. What a great experience, and we even had hot kosher food. We also enjoyed the "luxury" of counter service kosher meals to get us through the day. While I didn't miss this at all as a kid, as a parent I am grateful.
Is the kosher dining at WDW and Disneyland anything close to the dining experience the average Joe has? Absolutely not. As anyone who keeps kosher in any capacity knows and understands, that would be a luxury that is rare on any kind of vacation. But to have that option available makes the experience that much more enjoyable. The food isn't Victoria & Albert's, but it beats popcorn for lunch and ice cream for dinner. And the character meals are now a "must-do" for us on any trip to a Disney park.
So, I am thankful for kosher dining at Disneyland and Walt Disney World.
(If there were to be a kosher resturaunt with freshly cooked kosher food on property, then expressing my gratitude wouldn't be possible with words alone.)
A wandering Jew in the Magic Kingdom…
Why am I doing this?
I guess most people starting a blog have asked this question of themselves. As a person who thought a blog would be one of the last things I'd do, one would think I'd already have an answer to that. I do. Sort of.
I have this mental pathology of being engrossed in thoughts and emotions about the Disney Parks constantly. Not a day goes by when I say something Disney related. I live with my iPod in my ears and I'm usually listening to some Disney parks pod cast or audio from the parks. I admit – I am not well. But, since this problem doesn't hurt anyone including myself, I have decided to succumb rather than fight it.
My fanaticism can be traced as far back as February, 1981 – my first visit to Walt Disney World, and it was solidified two years later with my first visit to EPCOT Center. I was hooked, until Feb, 1988 – our family's last visit together – when it started to become out of the forefront of my consciousness. Fast forward to 2005, when we decided to have a family reunion in the "World" and it all came rushing back.
I've been quite active in the online Disney community over the last two years. I can be found on forums & heard in emails and voicemails on pod casts. I'm there, but I noticed some people come to the forefront more than others, and there seem to be two reasons for this: either someone dedicates their time (and career) to doing this or someone finds a niche. Since I cannot dedicate my time too much, I wondered if I had a niche. That was answered for me.
I happen to be a kosher-eating, Sabbath-observant Jew who loves Disney and its parks. I noticed that at this time of year, Christmas talk dominated the Disney interweb. In some small corners tucked away on discussion forums, I found some people who searched for a bit of a Jewish touch, so I reached out my hand. Then, I initiated discussions based around the Jewish calendar about the Disney experience. All of a sudden, people started contacting me about planning a trip to Disney World as a Jew. Strangers! "I'm planning on celebrating my birthday in the Magic Kingdom after Rosh HaShana. What's it like getting kosher food there?" "How should I do Passover in Disney World?" "Where is the best place to stay over Shabbat?" I know my Jewish friends would always come to me for Disney trip planning advice, and it was no surprise when neighbors and friends of friends started to, but strangers? On the internet? Wow. I wonder if there is a niche there.
I know that this may be a tiny alcove in the vast online world of Disney and its parks, but why not plant a flag in the uniquely Jewish experience of the parks? If I reach out my hand and nobody grabs on, fine. It keeps me busy and becomes my therapy. But if people are out there longing for friendly discussion or a familiar encounter, I say to you, "Welcome." Would I love for this to blossom into a strong online community? Would I ever! We could have a Friday night dinner meet at Mousefest! So, let's see where this goes, shall we?
Stay tuned. Keep those eyes and bananas peeled.
"Thank you, folks, for coming to my kitchen…"

Hundreds of New Yorkers, like others nationwide, have been making a few extra dollars by using sites such as AirBnB, Crashpadder,Roomorama, and Craigslist to sublet pullout sofas, living rooms, and whole apartments.
But that may end soon. This week, New York state senators vote on a bill that would make it illegal for any homeowner or renter to sublet for less than a month. The new law would be a blanket ban on short-term rentals no matter how ethical the renter is.
Before we even look at the private property issue (which, let's face it, was lost in NY a long time ago), how is this going to help tourism to bring money into the state?

Are you bored of keeping your hair unfashionably short? Then why not try something different? You are probably wondering how you can grow your hair fast, but as that is hard, why not try instant hair extensions instead? They can add length and volume to hair, and that way you can kill two birds with the same stone. This new hairstyle will give a picture perfect look, especially when you are posing in front of a family photographer or a baby photographer. You definitely want a perfect snapshot at all times, and that is possible if you are confident enough about your tresses.
Adding hair extensions is as easy as you may think. It bonds the natural hair using different methods such as warm fusion, sew-in, braid-in, heat-sealed in, and the famous, clipped-in. You can use either synthetic or natural hair with each of these methods depending on the price you can afford.
You may find hair extensions quite pricey at times, but in such cases, you will get an assurance of the best quality hair and service. When you head to your hair stylist to get extensions attached, you have to make sure that he or she had received special training on the different methods for attaching them. Besides, as all can't be used for everyone, only an expert will be able to help the most. Your expert stylist will select the attachment method according to the texture of your hair and its condition. Listed below are some more reasons as to why you should get extensions:
• If you want to gain a confidence boost through long and thick hair, you can quickly attach hair extensions and enjoy both advantages. You will not have to wait years for your hair to grow.
• If you had an unpleasant experience while getting a hair cut that does not suit you the least bit, then you have the best option to cover it with hair extensions. There is a diverse range of hairstyles that you can try if you have long hair, and there is a fair chance that a few of them will suit you perfectly.
• These hair accessories also allow you to add bold or subtle highlights to your hair, and that too without the use of any chemicals.
• They can be an ideal choice for some special occasion where you get to flaunt a new look. Whether it is a wedding, prom night or any other occasion, extensions will give you a perfect look. They are quite ideal for formal events too if you choose more natural colors.
• If you are in a mood to experiment with your hairstyle to see if the long hair really suits you, then you can try these on. Afterwards, you can fix them on permanently or remove them.
One thing that you will find common in almost every magazine is the trend of the long hairstyles. Now those long dream hairs are not a dream anymore. Get extensions whenever you feel like having long or healthy hair, and say goodbye to those depressing hairdos.
Connor Sullivan reviewed the services of a Cincinnati family photographer to be able to write about the different styles of photography for an upcoming article. His wife scheduled a photo shoot with a Cincinnati baby photographer to take pictures of their infant son.

Michelle was a cellist in the modern sense. I'd gone to all the shows that her string ensemble had throughout the city. I remember seeing their first show and gazing at how gracefully their arms held time within them. The music they created involved the entire instrument in every way possible. bowing, plucking, tapping, rubbing. You'd think playing like that would make the sound too harsh or out-of-place, but the sound was magnificent. It was as if the instruments were singing out their gratitude to be loved for everything they were. She told me that when she played, she imagined being in a paradise where every ounce of effort was a means to the same, beautiful end. She became one with the grandest orchestra, that played for nothing more than the rapture at beholding itself.
Music spoke to her in ways that poetry could never touch. Whenever she played, I fell silent with envy for the things she experienced that a poet could only wonder about. But then she would always remind me that i had the power to change minds, shift the tides of the human struggle with nothing but a few words, beautifully arranged. It should be fair, but it's not. The only writers who changed anything lived through hell and sometimes they survived. I was no hell-dweller.

Kefir is a fermented food made from milk. It is rich in beneficial yeast and bacteria. These friendly micro-organisms play an important role in our digestion, help balance our "inner ecosystem" and are useful in building immunity or regaining health. Kefir contains minerals and essential amino acids including: tryptophan (relaxing effect on nervous system), vitamin B12, vitamin B1, and vitamin K. It has a tart taste, similar to drinking yogurt.
Without sufficient friendly bacteria and yeast (also called "flora"), the "unfriendly" ones take over our system causing poor digestion and limiting our absorption of nutrients. This leads to nutrient deficiencies and is expressed through a variety of symptoms including headaches, depression, skin rashes, food allergies, joint and muscle pain, menstrual irregularities, digestive problems, environmental sensitivities, and other immune related disorders.
Kefir is different from yogurt in that it contains beneficial yeast and bacteria. Yogurt contains only beneficial bacteria.

Both are fermented dairy products. Kefir is generally thought of as "drinkable" yogurt due to its consistency. The main difference is that kefir has both beneficial bacteria and yeast, while yogurt typically just has bacteria. Kefir is often used when battling candida.

Lisa: My hubby and I will be celebrating our 10th anniversary in January. Together we have three active boys. This year all three boys are in school. It is kind of odd to have such a quiet house all day long! The boys are loving school and I do have to admit that I enjoy being able to have some time during the day to sew. I'm really excited about Sunshine & Pink and being able to work with Maria!
Maria: My hubby and I are getting ready to celebrate our 14th wedding Anniversary on the 25th of this month. We have six children, three boys and then three girls. The older four children are in school. The two little girls are home with me all day and I love it. My oldest just turned 13 and my youngest will be two in a week. It's amazing how quickly time flies. The girls are great at modeling what I sew and can be found pulling out fabric for dresses they want.
We met three years ago while we were both living in South Korea and became fast friends. We had so much fun sewing together and were even known to make matching skirts for ourselves and Maria's girls and then wear them to church that Sunday.
It was while we were in Korea that we really gained a love for fabric and sewing. There was a great store that we visited quite frequently called Happy Quilt. Oh man, that was the best fabric store ever! Nothing like fabric stores here in the United States.
We have spent the last three years improving our sewing skills. At the beginning of September we opened up a boutique on Etsy. We have started out with girls dresses, but have plans to add clothing for boys too! Make sure you head on over to Etsy and check out Sunshine & Pink!

Amplitude Modulation (AM) Synthesis is performed by combining two signals together. A source audio signal, the carrier, is multiplied by an unipolar modulation signal. A unipolar signal is simply a signal that contains only positive values (usually between 0 and 1). This process is typically used to alter the carrier signal in one of two ways.
The modulation signal can be used as an envelope which is applied to the carrier signal to determine the audio signals amplitude over time.
AM synthesis used to apply an amplitude envelope.
The modulation signal can be also be used to quickly cycle the carrier signal's amplitude to form two additional frequencies known as sidebands, forming harmonic or non-harmonic sounds.

I like grilled, whole fish a lot, although Laurie is not too keen on them. Something about the eyes, I think.
Slit the fish perpendicular to the spine. Stuff the body cavity with herbs - I used chives and rosemary for this trout.
Oil the grate of a hot grill and gently put the fish on it. Let it sit for five minutes, then gently move it so that it's loose from the grill. Let it cook for another three minutes and gently roll it over.
Cook on the flip side for eight more minutes.
I have mixed results with egg plant and want to master it this year. Egg plant has a very high water content which makes grilling a good technique and is also very porous, causing it to soak up oil like a sponge.
Peel and cut the egg plant into disks. Liberally salt in put into a colander to draw out the moisture. Let it sit for at least fifteen minutes, then shake off the water or blot with a towel.
Right before putting it onto the grill, coat with olive oil. Grill with indirect heat to prevent charring: easier said than done.
