Are there times that you can point to God's faithfulness and goodness in your life? Do share!!
To read about God's goodness in our lives, go to http://ungrind.org/2012/milk_and_honey/ for my recently published article. Are there times that you can point to God's faithfulness and goodness in your life? Do share!! Unless you are sleeping under a rock in the Himalayas somewhere, I'm sure you know that yesterday was Father's Day. And if you didn't, I am sure you figured it out pretty quickly from all of your Facebook newsfeeds. In typical Brian fashion, he made all of his plans and bought his own gifts. I must admit though, that this year he did a pretty great job. I was however able to surprise him with one gift. On the eve of this epic day, after Chase went to bed and before B himself went to bed, I conspicuously changed Chase's shirt. I put a rockstar "I love Dad," shirt on. which if you've been reading for a while, you understand. The following morning, we decided to go to the early service at church so that we could head out to grab lunch before the baseball game. One of my favorite pastimes is finding hip, little places to eat. Give me off the beaten path, options for both B and I (i.e. vegan and burgers:) with a cool environment and I am sold. A helpful new to me app that I absolutely love is urbanspoon. This helps so much and I can search on it for hours...good times, folks..good times. I found an absolutely yummy place to eat that satisfied us both. The name was Tap and Tapas and it was located in downtown Nash. Brian was hesitant but trusted my plan. He looked relieved when he saw burgers on the sign outside. He had a stuffed burger with an fried egg on top and I had a portobello mushroom "burger" with fried eggplant straws. The food was excellent and it was the perfect place to chill before the game. Once we arrived to the game, it was pretty hot. Chase was super excited to get onto the field AFTER the game, so I prepared myself to stay for all 10 innings. Luckily, the stands weren't too full and I could get all country and prop my boot over the seat in front of me...you think there is no leg room on airplanes...I could barely fit my legs in front of me! We must be a lucky charm to the Sounds because they broke a losing streak and won the game. Chase absolutely loved yelling for each hit and sighing for each miss. It was quite adorable. And quite annoying for a grumpy, older lady in front of us:) After the game, we proceeded to the field for father/son pitch. It was great watching B and C pitch and hit. Brian grew up going to these games with his dad and it was very special for him to not only go on this day but to continue on with this important tradition. After we left the field, we were all pretty sweaty and beat. By the time we got into the car and started the AC, Chase was out in five minutes. That to us meant a pretty successful day. It really was one of the best days for dads that we've ever had. So what were your plans for Father's Day? Any special memories with your dad? On allpointswhole, this is a topic we've discussed before. I've shared my own struggle with eating disorders..mine not as devastating as others but unhealthy nonetheless. It resembled more of a constant cycle of dieting and thus my weight fluctuating. I vividly remember start my first of many diets in the fifth grade. Although, I was only nine years old, I had a very poor self image and the little"baby fat" I carried seemed much more blown up in my mind than it actually appeared. The older I've gotten, I've realized that most women are plagued with this form of a eating disorder. Society tells us we are only attractive and worthy, if we are, as Sir-Mix-a-lot once sang, 24-36-24. And even though he was just a one hit wonder, we sing along and attempt to live up to a standard that only those born with perfect genetics can live up to. Recently, I joined the online community of Myfitnesspal. I absolutely love this site and it has aided in my attempts to lose weight that I put on during my multiple injuries from 2010-2011. It helps you stay accountable and offers encouragement through online "friendships." It really is such an eye opener and helps inspire you to make better choices. Through some recent friend requests, I've noticed a disturbing trend, particularly with younger girls, They seem to be using the site to calorie restrict to very unhealthy numbers. I was shocked to see girls posting about binging, purging, and starving themselves. They don't talk about it as a struggle but rather boast about it! They encourage one another and give suggestions as to how they can deceive their peers and or parents to believe they are eating when they are in fact, not. One suggestion I read today stated "go into the kitchen and fiddle around, closing drawers, etc. Then when dinner time arrives and you tell your parents that you are not hungry, it will be more believable" Wow. This has been burdening me for sometime and quite frankly I don't know what the solution is. I am a "fixer" by nature and am racking my brain as to how I can make a difference in this epidemic. Other than looking for new outlets to mentor teen girls, I've decided to shed light onto it by exposing it on this blog. I've also left comments on the girls' pages encouraging them that they are beautiful just the way they are..to please not purge, get help, etc I've received no replies...but I also have not been defriended. I've added a few more that I've seen comment on others in an attempt to try and impact them as much as possible. This saddens me so much and makes my heart so heavy. Writing about it helps me collect my thoughts and hopefully inspires readers to address this issue on their blogs or with anyone they know suffering from this disease. If you happen to be experiencing or engaging in this behavior yourself, please find someone you can trust and take the leap of being vulnerable. It is so scary and uncomfortable to share your shortcomings, but it is oh so worth it. Ultimately, you are destroying yourself. And once you figure out why you are wanting to inflict that pain on yourself, you will be one step closer to healing and freedom. Sometimes just sharing with someone takes such a burden off of your shoulders and gives you such a release. I want to continue to bring this issue to light, but for now I want to hear from you. Have you or anyone you know experienced an eating disorder? If you received help, what was it and how did it help you? Any ideas on how we can make a difference? Okay, okay for all of you whipper snappers out there...I know I changed the title. I've been busy. Sue me. Well inquiring minds want to know..or at least I pretend they do. What is the grand total you ask?? Come on, just humor me. Drumroll............27.6 pounds! To say I am shocked is an understatement. I began this journey on Jan 30th. I never expected to get this far this fast. Not to downgrade my work..I have worked hard for sure. My original goal was to be 135 by the Mini (in about a week) but right now I am 131.0 so I am thinking I will try to get to 129 or lower. My husband says stress is a good diet and since we just found out we were moving in less than a month (more on that later) and the hubs moves Monday, I just might drop weight rapidly (don't worry, I kid..I eat when I am stressed. I always wished I was one of those skinny girls that says "oh I can't eat..I'm too stressed:) Yea right. Instead I eat a dozen doughnuts in one sitting. So those are the results folks. How is your weight loss journey going? So last night we had our girl's night for the runner girls. This is our third time to get together outside of running since November. I love that we started doing this and I think we've decided we will keep it up every few months. We are a pretty serious group of runners and it is fun to get away and just have fun. And pig out. Last night, we went to Ted's Montana Grill, a fancy chocolate store and Dick's..because what else would a group of runner's do but eat and shop at a sport's store? We decided to get team racing singlets for the upcoming marathon. We are pretty stoked about it. I would reveal them here but we can't have anyone stealing our idea:) Because clearly, we have the best ideas. So, do you have traditions that you and your friends do together? If so, what are they? So today is that time again... I wasn't at all hopeful for todays weigh in but had resigned myself to it. We were out of town for Easter and that meant eating out every meal and enjoying some indulgences. I figured I would still log everything but also enjoy myself. I was completely shocked this morning when the scale said I was down 2.2!! I could not believe it! last week, I was down 1.4. If you are keeping up, this now puts me at 21.6 pounds! To celebrate, i thought I would look up some fun facts about 20 lbs of fat....thats normal, right?? Unfortunately, all I found were globs of some disgusting substance and food images that just made me hungry. Fail. How is your weight loss going? How much have you lost? Well blog world, its that time again...time for what you may ask? Well.for my creative title to make its reappearance of course. I kid. And yes, I realize that my jokes are only funny to myself. Is that narcissistic?:) It's been four weeks since my last post. Why you ask? Oh, i don't know. Like I mentioned before, its hard for me to write about things that can be so trivial. However, I blog to inspire and motivate others, so I hope this does. Or at least manifests a good laugh for you. For the last 3 weeks, I have consistently gone down two pounds per week. That has been wonderful and including my last post, my total loss is 8.4. I will take that for one month! I went into this week with minimal but hopeful expectations. I felt smaller; My clothes felt better. I got on the scale this morning and lo and behold, I was up exactly one pound. I didn't change anything I had been doing. I think my body just wanted to revolt from so much loss. Or it hates me. Either one. Since Jan 2, there has only been one week, now two, that I haven't lost. The first time, I ate out a lot and went up 1.8. My total loss is 19 pounds. But after today, 18. I plan on taking my inches today. That is always an up lifter. But, honestly I don't feel bummed at all. That is a big surprise to me and I guess I really am growing:) My exercise has drastically changed the last three weeks due to an injury. That may or may not play a role. Whatever the reason, I take it and embrace it. There is a lesson to learn even in the simple things, right? So, are you on a journey to be a healthier you? If so, what changes have you made? Today is Tuesday and not only is it my WW weigh in day, it also happens to coincide with the word total which makes for a cute ...wait for it, title. (also a T word for those of you not paying attention,) I was so excited to weigh in today and see a loss of 2.4. This is great news since last week I went up 1.8 and the week before only went down .4. This is a total loss of 13 pounds since reaching my highest weight at Christmas. This is awesome news. 20 to go (though I am sure i will get comfortable after 10 more and the last 10 will be the most difficult.) I wanna shift here a little bit. I think it is absolutely wonderful to have a weight loss goal. I think taking care of your body is very closely related to your overall spiritual and emotional health. With that being said, I want to make sure I don't focus my thoughts too much on the weight or scale. This week, I have focused more on eating 2-3 fruits a day, some protein and whole grains, and 4-6 vegetables. I am doing this because I was reminded that the food we eat is for fuel not to binge. Sure, I can eat some low fat, low calorie snacks but is that really the healthy, whole choice? Will my body thank me for that? That is why this post is under Pointing the Compass. Eating well is part of a journey...once that includes spiritual, emotional and physical well being. And that my friends, is definitely more than a number on a scale. What are your thoughts on weight loss? What healthy choices are you making this week? Last night, we got together (co-) leader and I and fixed the teen girls that we are so happy to work with dinner. We have ten girls but only five could make it. My favorite part (besides the reese's cake I made) was sitting around the dinner table like we were family. Sharing stories, laughing, watching kiddos play. It was community at its best. I love their raw honesty and willingness to share with two girls they barely know. It brings me back to those very moments in my life. People intervened for me and I am beyond blessed to share a conversation with them. Our group is really bonding and I am so happy to see that. I give them nothing. They give me everything. Love you girls!! Look at those naive young kids. OH wait, we are having computer issues so I can't show it to you. But picture a Christmas wedding, black and white photo. I am standing with my head held up high, with an exuberant look on my face. Brian looks terrified and is half smiling. All we knew was that God was in control. Our first few years were dark but had moments of light. We were idealistic and were hopefully being helpful by mentoring kids.But, don't get me wrong,. In the midst of this Brian was the casualty of my wounded -ness. Not that he was perfect. Trurst me. He was so gracious and never put expectations on me. He just let me be me. When we moved here, we had only been married 3 years. At the time, to both of us-it had seemed much longer. You see we were friends for a few years before dating and we had experienced hell and glory together. We are going towards eight years here which we both can't believe. I've gone from resenting it to recognizing its beauty and so thankful for all of the women God has put in my life. Those who get me..hey, they get it. Those who don't, I've lost but it's all good.,..nothing but love for ya. Brian and I both tried to agan make a difference with kids. Brian was a youth pastor and we had many intimate moments menotring teens. We are still friends with all of those kids and interact on Facebook. In the midst of this, there was still pain. I didnt understand what was going on with me and Brian was intimidated by that. So he stayed silent. Man, during these years, we have both transformed so much. I found myself still lost and was super immature.I put too many expectations of people b/c of my pride. I said words that hurt and I learned my lesson,. But, I just know I feel more confident but only because I am learning so much about God's grace and how it really is an ocean we are daily swimming in it. What better truth is there? We are free!! I"ve watched Brian continue to love and serve the church when I was fed up and losing my love for the church. But, He is so faithful. He finally began tithing and this was a big trust issue of his heart. He is faithful to continue to give every week and loves tracking it. What can I say he is an introvert and I am the crazy hormonal, prideful girl trying to follow God's path for our marriage. Or thats what all us ladies think, right? We are in no way perfect. But, we are staying together, working it out....building and investing in our relationships. It has been sloooooow going. But God always intervened and kept us strong. I can't wait to see where we continue to journey and discover God's daily purpose for our family. I think we will continue to grow, have some fights....but hold on. And our beautiful boys...what a blessing. We are learning to finally communicate and understand one another better than we ever have. We joke that we just had it backwards. Most marriages are super intimate those first few years and then lose that interest and then divorce. We had very difficult. first few years, but now-even though there's pain, we are still working and understand each other much better. Life is waaaay better. Now each day, when we do it right by listening to God's voice, I see God's providence in every step we've taken. And there's is nothing more miraculous than I have experienced than where you look back and see how ALL of it was for His glory. So we can continue to believe. Trust and obey. Favorite hymn ever. We are sinners making it ONLY because of God's grace. There is nothing in us that has enabled us to have our anniversary today. 11 years on 11/11/11. We totally did that on purpose. Not. Ephesians 3:14-21 was a verse Brian used to read to me when we were dating off and on. That verse has become my life verse and I believe I will experience his love more than I can imagine. I pray it over each youth or adult I pray with and for all of my friends and former friends that just couldn't hold down. Of course, I and we have not always been so easy to be friends with...again that seriousness we live with, expectations, insecurity, pride, you get the point. We miss our fellow journeyers but I guess we are always united in spirit and peace. And of course there is always Facebook.. But I see myself maturing. And thats all we can do. But, its all about growing. You should read it. Its one of the most beautiful prayers to pray for people in your life. I am so proud of you babe for working part time, losing your dreams, but moving up in your company, working your butt off to provide for us.I know one day it will all make since. So, here's your gift. Since you never tell me what you want. I know we will have a wonderful night. Stay in his presence and walk in His spirit, Oh and quit pissin me off, Karin | AllGeneral meditations on life and balance. ArchivesJuly 2012 CategoriesAll |

Not the best manicure everBy KateR | April 20, 2013
I got a manicure here which was a total waste of money. The people were nice, the place was clean but the manicure (and manicurist) were nothing special. When I get a manicure, I love to get the full treatment: hand/arm massage and lotion. But this manicure had none of that -- and my fingers have nail polish all over, not just on my nails.
Bottom line: I've had better manicures for half the price.

"The World's Greatest Concession Crab Cakes"
Your Subtitle text
Q. Where are you located?
A. Our office/warehouse complex is located in Camp Hill, PA (suburb of Harrisburg).
Q. Do you make your crab cakes yourself or purchase them from another company?
A. We make our crab cakes from our own recipe at our PA Department of Agriculture and FDA approved facility in Camp Hill, PA
Q. Do you have a restaurant?
A. No, we sell our ready to eat crab cakes & crab soup at festivals, and we sell our uncooked frozen products directly from our warehouse and components to make our crab cakes via shipping.
Q. Do you ship your products?
A. Yes, customers can order directly from our web site.
Q. Do you ship frozen crab cakes?
A. No, we ship spice packets and crab meat to our customers.
Q. Why don't you ship frozen crab cakes to customers?
A. We used to ship frozen crab cakes to customers but problems and increased expenses associated with shipping a frozen product forced us to stop shipping frozen crab cakes. We do sell our frozen crab cakes to walk-in customers from our office/warehouse complex in Camp Hill, PA.
Q. Where do you get your crab meat from?
A. We buy crab meat in bulk from seafood distributors.
Q. Do you offer franchises for sale?
A. No, but we do offer "distributorships" in a few selected areas to qualified people.
Q. Can I have the recipe?
A. Sorry, we can not give out the recipe.
Q. What temperature do you cook the crab cakes to?
A. There are different requirements for different health department jurisdictions, but in general we cook the crab cakes to a minimum internal temperature of 155 degrees for thirty seconds.
Q. Is the crab meat real?
A. Yes, we use real lump & Jumbo Lump crab meat.
Q. Do your crab cakes have onions or peppers in the recipe?
A. No.
Q. How much crab meat is in your crab cakes?
A. about 70%.
Q. Do your crab cakes have any other fish in them?
A. No, only lump and jumbo lump crab meat.
Q. Do your crab cakes have filler in them?
A. Yes, we use a traditional crab cake recipe that includes bread crumbs, spices and seasonings sometimes described as "filler".
Q. Why don't you use 100% crab meat?
A. That would not be a crab cake, it would be a pile of crab meat on a grill. In our opinion a traditional crab cake consists of crab meat, spices, seasonings, bread crumbs all held together with mayonnaise and eggs (along with a few other ingrediants).
Q. Why don't you use all jumbo lump crab meat?
A. If we used all jumbo lump crab meat we would have to charge $10+ each for our crab cakes and we feel that is too much to charge at the festivals and events we participate in.
Q. Why do you charge different prices for your crab cakes at different events?
A. Our base price for a crab cake is currently $7 each but at shows where the fee to participate is higher than normal we may charge $8 to cover the cost of the higher fee. In addition if a show is out of town where our expenses are much higher with lodging and high fuel costs we charge more at those shows to cover the increased costs we incur.

Sights in India
Taj Mahal
The Taj can be accessed through the west, south and east gates, which all lead to an outer courtyard. The south gate is the main access and is easiest to reach from Taj Ganj, while the east gate generally has the shortest queues. The west gate gets very crowded with tour groups, but they don't normally arrive until after 9am. There are separate queues for men and women. Prohibited items such as food, tobacco, matches, mobile phones and camera tripods can be left without charge in cloakrooms. Don't forget to visit the cloakroom first to avoid queuing twice.
Still run by the descendants of the Maharaja of Jodhpur, Mehrangarh is captivating. As you approach, the walls soar overhead in a mesmerising demonstration of the skills of the builders. Cast off your audio-tour prejudices, as this tour, covered by the foreign-visitor admission charge (which also includes camera fees), is terrific, with a mix of history, information and dramatically narrated anecdotes. It's a real treat to wander around at your leisure, taking a fix of information when you feel like it. Personal guides are available for Rs150.
Sri Meenakshi Temple
The Sri Meenakshi Temple is the abode of the triple-breasted, fish-eyed Goddess Meenakshi Amman ('fish-eyed' is an adjective for perfect eyes in classical Tamil poetry), is considered by many to be the height of South Indian temple architecture, as vital to the aesthetic heritage of this region as the Taj Mahal is to North India. It's not so much a temple as a 6-hectare complex enclosed by 12 gopurams, the highest of which towers 52m over Madurai, and all of which are carved with a staggering array of gods, goddesses, demons and heroes.
Gateway of India
The bold basalt Gateway of India arch faces out to Mumbai Harbour at the tip of Apollo Bunder. Derived from the Islamic styles of 16th-century Gujarat, it was built to commemorate the 1911 royal visit of King George V. It was completed in 1924: ironically, the gateway's British architects used it just 24 years later to parade off their last British regiment, as India marched towards independence.
These days, the gateway is a favourite gathering spot for locals and a top spot for people-watching. Giant-balloon sellers, photographers, beggars and touts rub shoulders with Indian and foreign tourists, creating all the hubbub of a bazaar. Boats depart from the gateway's wharfs…
Red Fort (Lal qila)
The massive Red Fort (Lal qila) stands rather forlornly, a sandstone carcass of its former self. When Emperor Shah Jahan paraded out of the fort atop an elephant into the streets of Old Delhi, though, he and the fort that he built were a grandiose display of pomp and power.
The walls of the fort extend for 2km and vary in height from 18m on the river side to 33m on the city side. Shah Jahan began construction of the massive fort in 1638 and it was completed in 1648. Shah Jahan never completely moved his capital from Agra to his new city of Shahjahanabad in Delhi because he was deposed and imprisoned in Agra Fort by his sly son Aurangzeb.
The Red Fort dates from the very…
The unofficial headquarters of Mumbai's tourist scene, Colaba sprawls down the city's southernmost peninsula. It's a bustling district packed with street stalls, markets, bars and budget to midrange lodgings. Colaba Causeway (Shahid Bhagat Singh Marg) bisects the promontory and is the traffic-filled artery connecting Colaba's jumble of side streets and gently crumbling mansions.
Sassoon Dock, south of the main tourist action, is a scene of intense and pungent activity at dawn (around 05:00) when colourfully clad Koli fisherwomen sort the catch unloaded from fishing boats at the quay. The fish drying in the sun are bombil, the fish used in the dish Bombay duck. Photography…
Maharaja's Palace
The fantastic profile of the walled Indo-Saracenic Maharaja's Palace, the seat of the maharajas of Mysore, graces the city's skyline. An earlier palace burnt down in 1897 and the present one, designed by English architect Henry Irwin, was completed in 1912 at a cost of Rs 4.5 million.
The palace's interior - a kaleidoscope of stained glass, mirrors and gaudy colours - is undoubtedly over the top, but it includes awe-inspiring carved wooden doors and mosaic floors, as well as a series of historically interesting paintings depicting life in Mysore during the Edwardian Raj. Hindu temples within the palace grounds include the Sri Shweta Varahaswamy Temple; its gopuram…
Chowpatty Beach
Chowpatty is still a favourite spot for anyone out to enjoy what passes for fresh air. Get the full experience by strolling through the many beachside stalls for some bhelpuri or a head massage. The water is not the cleanest but the beach is litter-free, patrolled by lifeguards and lit up at night. Visiting Chowpatty in the evening is an essential part of any trip to Mumbai.
The highlight of the year at Chowpatty is Ganesh Chaturthi (August/September), when huge crowds gather to watch images of the elephant-headed god of good fortune, Ganesh, paraded through the city streets and immersed in the sea.
Laxmi Vilas Palace
Laxmi Vilas Palace was built in full-throttle 19th-century Indo-Saracenic flourish for Rs6 million. After purchasing your ticket at the Maharaja Fateh Singh Museum head north along Nehru Rd to the second gate (after the entrance to the golf course and before the grand main entrance to the palace). At the palace, pick up an audio guide (included in the admission) and have a leisurely sticky beak at the elaborate interiors of the palace. The Naulakhi Well, a fine step well, is 50m north of the palace.
Bhitarkanika Wildlife Sanctuary
Three rivers flow out to sea at Bhitarkanika forming a tidal maze of muddy creeks and mangroves. Most of this 672-sq-km delta forms Bhitarkanika Wildlife Sanctuary, a significant eco-system containing hundreds of estuarine crocodiles that bask on mud flats waiting for the next meal to swim by. Dangmal Island contains a successful breeding and conservation program for these crocodiles. Pythons, water monitors, wild boar and timid spotted deer can also be seen. The best time to visit is from December to February.
City Palace Museum
The City Palace museum includes the Mor Chowk, with its lavish mosaics of peacocks, the favourite Rajasthani bird. The Manak (Ruby) Mahal has glass and mirrorwork, while Krishna Vilas has a remarkable collection of miniatures (no photography allowed). In the Bari Mahal there is a pleasant central garden. The Moti Mahal has beautiful mirrorwork and the Chini Mahal is covered in ornamental tiles.
More wall paintings can be seen in the Zenana Mahal. There's a large tiger-catching cage near the Zenana Mahal entrance.
Neelkantha Mahadev Temple
Follow the dedicated pilgrims who take water from the Ganges to offer at Neelkantha Mahadev Temple, a 7km, three-hour walk along a forest path from Swarg Ashram. Neelkanth (Blue Throat) is another name for Shiva, who once drank poison churned up from the sea by gods and demons, which turned his throat blue. A much longer road (17km) via Lakshman Jhula also goes to the temple. A jeep taxi costs a small price to return.
The Ganges River
The River Ganges provides millions of Indians with an important link to their spirituality. Every day about 60,000 people go down to the Varanasi ghats to take a holy dip along a 7km stretch of the river. Along this same area, 30 large sewers are continuously discharging into the river.
The Ganges River is so heavily polluted at Varanasi that the water is septic - no dissolved oxygen exists. The statistics get worse. Samples from the river show the water has 1.5 million faecal coliform bacteria per 100mL of water. In water that is safe for bathing this figure should be less than 500!
The problem extends far beyond Varanasi - 400 million people live along the basin of the…
Jaisalmer Fort
Jaisalmer Fort is a living fort - about 25% of the old city's population resides within its walls. As well as a palace and various temples, its carless streets are packed with houses, handicraft shops and beauty parlours, and honeycombed with narrow, winding lanes paved in stone.
Built in 1156 by the Rajput ruler Jaisala and reinforced by subsequent rulers, Jaisalmer Fort was the focus of a number of battles between the Bhattis, the Mughals of Delhi and the Rathores of Jodhpur. The lower layer of the fort's three walls is composed of solid stone blocks, which reinforce the loose rubble of Trikuta Hill. The second wall snakes around the fort, and between this and the…
Dal Lake
Dal Lake is Srinagar's jewel, a vast, mirror-flat sheet of water reflecting the carved wooden balconies of the houseboats and the misty peaks of the Pir Panjal mountains. Flotillas of gaily painted shikaras (gondola-like taxi boats) skiff around the lake, transporting goods to market, children to school and travellers from houseboat to shore. If you want to photograph the lake, bring a long lens and a polarising filter to cut down the glare from the water.
Most visitors to Srinagar stay out on Dal Lake in one of the delightful houseboats left behind from the Raj, but landlubbers can hire shikaras for tours around the lake, visiting floating gardens and the floating flower…
Rock Fort Temple
The Rock Fort Temple, perched 83m high on a massive outcrop, lords over Trichy with stony arrogance. The ancient rock was first hewn by religious-minded Pallavas, who cut small cave temples into the southern face, but it was the war-savvy Nayaks who later made strategic use of the naturally fortified position. There are two main temples: Sri Thayumanaswamy Temple, halfway to the top (there may be some bats snoozing in the ceiling), and VinayakaTemple, at the summit, dedicated to Ganesh. There are 437 stone-cut steps to climb, and the hike is worth the effort – the view is wonderful, with eagles wheeling beneath and Trichy sprawling all around into the greater Cauvery.…
Elephanta Island
In the middle of Mumbai Harbour, 9km northeast of the Gateway of India, the rock-cut temples on Elephanta Island are a Unesco World Heritage Site and worth crossing the waters for. Home to a labyrinth of cave-temples carved into the basalt rock of the island, the artwork represents some of the most impressive temple carving in all of India. The main Shiva-dedicated temple is an intriguing latticework of courtyards, halls, pillars and shrines, with the magnum opus a 6m-tall statue of Sadhashiva – depicting a three-faced Shiva as the destroyer, creator and preserver of the universe. The enormous central bust of Shiva, its eyes closed in eternal contemplation, may be the…
Jantar Mantar
Near the City Palace is Jantar Mantar, an observatory begun by Jai Singh in 1728, which at first glance looks like a collection of mammoth, bizarre sculptures. The guided tour (30 minutes to one hour) is well worthwhile; guides provide explanations of how each of the fascinating instruments work, and how – through watching, recording and meticulous calculation – Jai Singh measured time by the course of the sun's shadow and charted the annual progress through the zodiac. Each construction has a specific purpose, such as calculating eclipses. The most striking instrument is the sundial, with its 27m-high gnomon; the shadow this casts moves up to 4m per hour.
Nek Chand Fantasy Rock Garden
Entering this Chandigarh icon, a 25-acre garden, is like falling down a rabbit-hole into the labyrinthine interior of one man's mind. Created by Nek Chand, cleverly using recycled junk and organic materials, the garden is a curious maze of interlinking courtyards, twisting walkways and staircases suddenly emerging into valleys with crashing waterfalls or amphitheatres overrun by figures made of china shards. No material is wasted, from electrical sockets to colourful wire, glass and even broken bangles, in the legions of men, animals, archways and walls, with broken-art faces around almost every corner.
Happy Valley Tea Estate
Happy Valley Tea Estate, below Hill Cart Rd, is worth visiting when the plucking and processing are in progress. March to May is the busiest time, but occasional plucking also occurs from June to November. Outside of high season there's no plucking on Sunday, which means most of the machinery isn't working on Monday. An employee will whisk you through the aromatic factory and its various processes before politely demanding a tip – Rs20 from each visitor is appropriate. Take the turn off 500m northwest of the Office of the District Magistrate, or take Lochnager Rd from Chowk Bazaar.
This gracious 18th-century haveli museum, on the water's edge near Gangaur Ghat, was built by a former prime minister and has been carefully restored. There are 138 rooms set around courtyards. Some recreate the times when the house was inhabited, others have cultural displays, including the world's (rather saggy) biggest turban! The haveli also houses an interesting art gallery, with contemporary and folk art, and world-famous monuments lovingly carved out of polystyrene. The upper courtyard makes an atmospheric setting for fabulous Rajasthani dance performances at 7pm.
Gurdwara Bangla Sahib
The Gurdwara Bangla Sahib is an important Sikh shrine and a constant hive of activity. Topped with gold onion domes, it was constructed at the site where the eighth Sikh guru, Harkrishan Dev, spent several months in 1664. This guru dedicated most of his time to helping the destitute and sick and was revered for his healing powers. At the back of the gurdwara (Sikh temple) is a huge tank, surrounded by a graceful colonnade. The water is said to have curative properties. Devotional songs are sung throughout the day.
Gandhi Maidan is a large park around which are a couple of sights. For a dome with a view, climb the landmark Golghar, which is a short walk west of the Gandhi Maidan. The British army built this massive and bulbous beehive of a granary in 1786, in the hope of avoiding a repeat of the vicious 1770 famine. Fortunately it was never required. Its dual spiralling staircases (250 steps each side), designed so that workers could climb up one side and down the other, lead to an unparalleled view of the city and Ganges.
Naggar Castle
Built by the Sikh rajas of Kullu in 1460, this beautiful fort is a fine example of the alternating stone and timber style of Himachali architecture. It was converted into a hotel in 1978 when the last raja fell on hard times. There's a tiny one-room museum downstairs, and the Jagtipath Temple in the courtyard houses a slab of stone said to have been carried here by wild bees. The best way to experience the castle is to stay here, and there's also a restaurant – see right.
Rashtriya Manav Sangrahalaya
A kind of tribal safari park, only without the tribes, the open-air, hillside complex Rashtriya Manav Sangrahalaya is possibly your best chance to get a taste of India's 450-plus tribes without actually visiting an Adivasi village. Authentic-looking dwellings – built and maintained by Adivasis using traditional tools and materials – dot the hillside. There's a mythological trail and a more conventional museum on the hilltop.

You may remember a few months back I was scouring the Internet for the perfect flat brown boots. I tried eBay and failed and then found some replacements on Etsy. Well, it would have been nice if that had worked out but instead I got burned by an Etsy scammer! These will never be mine, alas.
I waited and waited for a package to arrive but it never came. I filed a dispute on Etsy which amounted to zero. The seller's feedback on Etsy slowly went sour with many girls complaining they never received their items. Then, I filed a dispute on PayPal and luckily received a (partial) refund for the boots. I didn't want a refund, though! I wanted these boots. Now, I will not be able to wear all the outfits I planned around them and I will have to keep looking for the right pair. So, I guess this is my warning to you all to be careful when buying online. I'm sure this doesn't happen often, as it was my first negative experience, but it was very disappointing. Now I am still searching for the right boots and it is almost fall.
This is the Etsy seller that screwed me (and others) by the way: FlowerChildVintage. I was going to include a link but it appears that this store has disappeared off the site (what a surprise!).

Clear Glass Tile is one of the most popular tiles among homeowners and interior designers who are working on a kitchen backsplash or bathroom project. Because clear glass tiles are translucent - you can see thru it, they have a shiny and rich look that opens unlimited possibilities in terms of design. Don't be afraid to use clear glass tiles if "shiny" is not your style. Since they are available in a large variety of colors, you can pick a soft/quiet color, which will put some of its shiny looking away without loosing the clear glass appearance.
Although the definition of clear/translucent glass is "allowing light to pass through partially or diffusely", it doesn't mean that all clear glass tiles are transparent in a way that you can see, for example, an object or your hand behind it. Clear glass is the material used to make these tiles, but they can have color or not.
There are basically three types of clear glass tiles: back colored, stained, and plain or non-colored.
Back colored clear glass mosaic tiles are by far the most popular in the market. The tiles are made of clear/translucent glass usually from 4mm to 8mm thick, and they receive a coating/painting on the back during manufacturing, which is what gives the color to the tile. Usually they are available mesh mounted on a fiberglass sheet or as field tiles such as subway 3"x6", 4"x4", 6"x6", and even 12"x12".
Stained clear glass tiles are made of clear/translucent glass that are stained during its manufacturing process and then cut into multiple pieces. In this case, you can see all the way through it even if it has a dark stain color, and that is the reason they are not mesh-backed, otherwise you would see the mesh thru the glass even after installed. Instead, they are mounted on clear-faced or paper-faced sheet.
Plain or non-colored clear glass tiles are made of clear/translucent glass and do not have color in it. Although the word "plain" is used to describe these types of tiles, they are extremely elegant and easy to work with if you want to give a special "touch" to a kitchen backsplash, bathroom, and shower or swimming pool. Since they don't have any color in it and are totally transparent, they match any color from granite counter tops to kitchen cabinets and easily blend into the environment.
Stained and Plain Clear Glass Tiles require more attention when installing. Because you can see what is on the other side of the tile, you can end up seeing the path made by the trowel when the installer was butting the wall. So it is recommended to use a white adhesive such as mastic and also butter the back of the tiles. Make sure to press the tiles firmly against the wall with a grout float and take a look if there is any air bubbles after each piece has been placed so you may correct the problem before the adhesive dries. Definitely this type of glass tiles takes more time to install but the result is absolutely worth. Stained glass tiles are the most rich and complex looking tiles available.
Important Note: Some white clear glass tiles have a green or iridescent tint/hue on it, and some are just pure white clear glass tile.

What does a "cloud" mean in IT?
It is one of the most popular buzzwords in the IT and business worlds. You cannot go anywhere and not hear people, advertisements, and computer experts talking about the "cloud". But what does the word cloud actually mean? Is it something tangible or just an abstraction used to define something that already existed? The answer probably lies somewhere in between.
As one person who had worked in the IT industry put it, "There is no cloud. It's just a bunch of servers." From an IT perspective, this is true. The cloud looks a lot like the web hosting of old. In that sense, nothing has changed.
Nevertheless, a fundamental shift has occurred at both the business and consumer level. For a business, that "bunch of servers" once occupied a floor of its building and had to be maintained by a full staff of competent IT professionals. For the consumer, valuable emails that they once downloaded from their ISPs resided exclusively on their hard drives.
With the advent of the cloud, there are now companies that specialize in doing nothing but providing working, managed servers for businesses. While we may refer to them as cloud service providers, they are still web hosting companies that now offer software as a service (SaaS) or a platform as a service (PaaS). For the business employee or even a private consumer, it means that they can now access their software anywhere and are not tied to a single workstation or home computer.
Having stated all of the above, it is important to know what you are getting when you move your business to the cloud. For many users, traditional web hosting may still be the best option, especially if they want full control of their platform and software. For those that cannot afford to do it themselves, they can now pay others to run their business applications from the cloud.

LINCOLN, Neb. (AP) - A police officer is recovering after hitting a sport utility vehicle that investigators say pulled out in from of him in a downtown Lincoln intersection. The Lincoln Journal Star reports (http://bit.ly/Vnlwi6) that Officer Peter Lensing was taken to a hospital Friday morning after plowing into the SUV with enough force that the SUV rolled. Police say Lensing suffered an injury to his hand, but was released from the hospital Friday. Police say the officer riding with Lensing wasn't hurt, nor was the teenager driving the SUV. Police say the boy's father came to the accident scene and picked him up. --- Information from: Lincoln Journal Star, http://www.journalstar.com

Winding down my business.
Here's a peek at a sweet doll face I shot a few weeks ago. I think what I'm going to miss most is the building relationships with my families. The joy of exposing their connections through my view finder. The growth and change that passing years reveal.
I have moments when I feel peace and relief about moving on. I have other moments when I feel a bit sad, but with peace. Right now … it's a sad moment.

The other day I opened SkyDrive on my iPhone 5 and wanted to be able to automatically back up photos I take to it. Apparently it doesn't yet have this feature. Well, then I got to thinking…
On my PC, I already have PhotoStream installed and all the pictures that I take on my iPhone/iPad get synced to my PC.
Then it dawned on me… I can move my PhotoStream folder into my SkyDrive folder!
Now every picture I take not only gets synced to the Apple PhotoStream, but it also gets synced into my SkyDrive account also.
Debugging JavaScript can be a tedious process. Especially when debugging a function that is called many times in an application. There may be some kind of utility function in an app that processes data, but there's a bug with one of the values.
In order to debug the function you'd open up Chrome or IE's Dev Tools and throw in a breakpoint. If the function being debugged is used in many areas, you'll have to hit continue multiple times to get to the specific case needed.
There are two different ways to avoid this problem.
Say you have the following code.
var process = function( obj ) { var type = Object.prototype.toString.call( obj ); return type; }; console.log( process({}) ); console.log( process([]) ); console.log( process("something") ); console.log( process(2) );
The process
function gets called 4 times here. What if while debugging, only the case in which the object is of the type String
is needing to be debugged?
The first way to do this is with just code. The debugger;
is a statement in JavaScript that will trigger a breakpoint in the code. By putting debugger
into the code, the execution will pause at that line. The debugger
can also be wrapped with a conditional statement that only runs when the condition is true.
var process = function( obj ) { var type = Object.prototype.toString.call( obj ); if ( ~type.indexOf( "Str" ) ) { debugger; } return type; };
Now the debugger will only be hit when the type is of "String".
The other way to set a conditional breakpoint is with the browser's development tools.
In Chrome…
And in IE10, and I'm pretty sure 9 also.
UPDATE 2/25/2013 several readers asked me to point out that Firefox also supports this feature…
That can definitely be a time saver!
Today I was publishing stuff to npm and came across a situation in which I typed the wrong user account for my local mahcine's npm.
I typed npm adduser jcreamer898
and then realized it was supposed to be "jcreamer".
After a few minutes of digging I figured out that there's a file in my home directory called .npmrc that gets created when you run adduser.
So I renamed that file, to old.npmrc then ran npm adduser jcreamer
and voila!
I wrote a few Sublime Text 2 snippets the other day that I thought I would share with the world, I'll probably add some more to this post over time as snippets are super easy to create, and super helpful!
First one is for jQuery plugins, and is based on http://coding.smashingmagazine.com/2011/10/11/essential-jquery-plugin-patterns/ thanks to Addy Osmani.
<snippet> <content><![CDATA[ (function ( \$, window, document, undefined ) { // Create the defaults once var pluginName = "${1:name}", defaults = { propertyName: "value" }; // The actual plugin constructor function ${2:snippet}( element, options ) { this.element = element; this.options = \$.extend( {}, defaults, options) ; this._defaults = defaults; this._name = pluginName; this.init(); } \$.extend(${2:snippet}.prototype, { init: function () { } }); \$.fn[pluginName] = function ( options ) { return this.each(function () { if (!\$.data(this, pluginName)) { \$.data(this, pluginName, new ${2:snippet}( this, options )); } }); }; \$.fn[ pluginName ].defaults = defaults; })( jQuery, window, document ); ]]></content>  <tabTrigger>jqplug</tabTrigger>  <scope>source.js</scope> </snippet>
And here's another for RequireJS plugins.
<snippet> <content><![CDATA[ define(['${1:deps}'], function (${2:args}) { }); ]]></content>  <tabTrigger>def</tabTrigger>  <scope>source.js</scope> </snippet>
There ya go! More to come hopefully…
<snippet> <content><![CDATA[ console.log("${1:message}") ]]></content>  <tabTrigger>log</tabTrigger>  <scope>source.js</scope> </snippet>
New HTML Page
<snippet> <content><![CDATA[ <!DOCTYPE html>   <title></title> <meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width; initial-scale=1.0; maximum-scale=1.0;"> <link rel="shortcut icon" href="/favicon.ico"> <link rel="apple-touch-icon" href="/apple-touch-icon.png"> <link rel="stylesheet" href="style.css">     ]]></content>  <tabTrigger>htmlp</tabTrigger>  <--<scope>source.html</scope>--> </snippet>
This is a really quick post, just thought it was useful enough to post.
There are times with jQuery where I find myself needing to get the html of an entire item.
For example…
// somehtml.html
I want more than this html
 // somejs.js // Gives me only "I want more than this html", but I want more... $('.whatever').html();
Use the following quick function and you'll have a string representing not only the innerHTML, but also the html of the actual selected element(s).
jQuery.fn.toHtmlString = function () { return $('

').html($(this).clone()).html(); }; // Now I have"
I want more than this html
"... $('.whatever').toHtmlString();
Espresso tip of the day!
Every now and again you come across something really useful that you just have to share.
A few minutes ago that happened to me…
I had a bunch of code that looked like…
var js = @Bundle.Javascript() .Add("script1.js") .Add("script2.js") .Add("script3.js") .Add("script4.js"); // .... many more ....
And I needed to remove the .Add in place of actual script tags.
Of course I could have just manually done it, but I figured… I am smarter then all that!
So I hit Ctrl + h in Visual Studio to pull of Quick Replace and punched in a regex to find all of my .Adds.
Next, in VS Quick Replace you can use curly braces in your regex to capture stuff. So, my regex became…
Then you can use a \1 in the replace with to place the captured expression in the replace string.
That's it! Thought that was worth sharing…
JSON has rapidly grown arguably the most popular way to transfer data via API's. It's fast, simple, and most every language supports it. ASP.net has a few things like the JavaScript Deserializer Class that do a decent job, but one of the better tools available is JSON.net.
What a better way to test it than to use a real world example. StackOverflow has a public facing JSON api available at http://api.stackoverflow.com/1.1/ so I'll show how to consume that one.
First, fire up whatever sort of app you want and then head to the Tools –> Library Package Manager –> Package Manager Console (aka. NuGet) and type in Install-Package Newtonsoft.Json
After some NuGet-y magic you'll have JSON.net at your finger tips.
For starters we'll consume the Users method of the API. Hitting the Url, http://api.stackoverflow.com/1.1/users/558672 It looks like…
The fastest way to consume it with JSON.net is by using the JsonConvert.DeserializeAnonymousType method.
var client = new WebClient(); byte[] response = client.DownloadData("http://api.stackoverflow.com/1.1/users/558672"); var decompress = new GZipStream(new MemoryStream(response), CompressionMode.Decompress); var reader = new StreamReader(decompress); string ret = reader.ReadToEnd(); var stackResponse = new { total = 0, page = 0, pagesize = 0, users = new[] { new { user_id = 0, user_type = "", creation_date = "", display_name = "", reputation = 0, email_hash = "", age = 0, last_access_date = 0, website_url = "", location = "", about_me = "", question_count = 0, answer_count = 0, view_count = 0, up_vote_count = 0, accept_rate = 0, bagde_counts = new { gold = 0, silver = 2, bronze = 9 } } } }; var stackUser = JsonConvert.DeserializeAnonymousType(ret, stackResponse);
One thing to note is that StackOverflow Gzips all of their API responses, that's what all that decompress stuff is about. So, THAT is it as far as the quickest way to consume a JSON Api with JSON.net.
The next more involved way to consume the API is to create your own classes that mirror the structure of the API and deserialize the response into them. This can look a variety of ways potentially, but here is my implementation.
public class StackUser : StackBase { [JsonProperty("user_id")] public int UserId { get; set; } [JsonProperty("user_type")] public string UserType { get; set; } [JsonProperty("display_name")] public string DisplayName { get; set; } [JsonProperty("reputation")] public int Reputation { get; set; } [JsonProperty("email_hash")] public string Email { get; set; } [JsonProperty("age")] public int Age { get; set; } [JsonProperty("last_access_date")] public int LastAccessDateInt { get; set; } [JsonProperty("website_url")] public string Website { get; set; } [JsonProperty("location")] public string Location { get; set; } [JsonProperty("about_me")] public string AboutMe { get; set; } [JsonProperty("question_count")] public int QuesionCount { get; set; } [JsonProperty("answer_count")] public int AnswerCount { get; set; } [JsonProperty("view_count")] public int ViewCount { get; set; } [JsonProperty("up_vote_count")] public int UpVoteCount { get; set; } [JsonProperty("down_vote_count")] public int DownVoteCount { get; set; } [JsonProperty("accept_rate")] public int AccpetRate { get; set; } [JsonProperty("association_id")] public Guid AssociationId { get; set; } [JsonProperty("badge_counts")] public Dictionary Badges { get; set; } }
This class represents all of the properties for a User. The JsonProperty attribute specifies what the actual property looks like in the JSON response.
public interface IUserRepository { StackUser GetUserById(params string[] ids); } public class Users : StackRepository<UserResponse>, IUserRepository { public Users() { Method = "users"; } public StackUser GetUserById(params string[] ids) { var userResponse = Get(ids); return userResponse.Users.FirstOrDefault(); } } public class StackResponse : IStackResponse { public int Total { get; set; } public int Page { get; set; } public int PageSize { get; set; } } public class UserResponse : StackResponse { public List Users { get; set; } }
Here I created a UsersRepository to consume all of the methods available for users and declared UsersResponse and a base StackResponse for the paging information that comes back on every request. Then within the UserResponse I get back the StackUser object off of UserResponse.Users
public abstract class StackRepository : IStackRepository { public string Method { get; set; } public RequestOptions Options { get; set; } private const string ApiUrl = "http://api.stackoverflow.com/1.1/"; public string Request(string request, RequestOptions options = null) { var client = new WebClient(); var stackRequest = new StringBuilder(ApiUrl + request); byte[] response = client.DownloadData(stackRequest.ToString()); if(response == null) { throw new Exception(string.Format("No response from request {0}", request)); } var decompress = new GZipStream(new MemoryStream(response), CompressionMode.Decompress); var reader = new StreamReader(decompress); string ret = reader.ReadToEnd(); return ret; } public T Get(params string[] ids) { var response = Request(Method + string.Join(",", strings); return Deserialize(response); } public T Deserialize(string response) { return JsonConvert.DeserializeObject(response); } } public class StackOverflow : IStackOverflow { IUserRepository _userRepo; public StackOverflow(IUserRepository userRepository) { _userRepo = userRepository; } public StackUser GetUserById(params string[] ids) { var users = _userRepo.GetUserById(ids); return users; } }
The StackRepository class here takes in a Generic class that will represent the type of Response that will be returned from the Api, such as the UserResponse that I created above. To use the StackOverflow object, just do this…
var stackOverflow = new StackOverflow(); var user = stackOverflow.GetUserById("558672");
So that is the slightly more complicated way to do it. It takes a little bit more setup, but it makes it a little bit easier to work with and makes the objects re-usable.
Have fun with JSON.net!
As per a guest recommendation in the comments, there actually is a third way to deserialize the data.
var client = new WebClient(); var stackRequest = new StringBuilder(ApiUrl + request); byte[] response = client.DownloadData(stackRequest.ToString()); if(response == null) { throw new Exception(string.Format("No response from request {0}", request)); } var decompress = new GZipStream(new MemoryStream(response), CompressionMode.Decompress); var reader = new StreamReader(decompress); string ret = reader.ReadToEnd(); dynamic userResponse = JObject.Parse(ret); var displayName = userResponse.users[0].display_name; Console.Write(displayName);
So there you go, 3 ways to use JSON.net to work with a JSON Api!
Minifying JavaScripts has many benefits. A few advantages are it reduces the amount of code the user has to download, removes unnecessary comments, and reduces the number of Http requests. There are many minify-ers out there, things such as YUI Compressor, JSMin, Google Closure Compiler, and UglifyJS.
I recently started using the standalone UglifyJS tool that can run in NodeJS. This makes the tool available via command prompt as well as accessing it inside of Node applications with require.
To use Uglify in Windows. First, download and install NodeJS. Once it is installed, you can then run applications in Command Prompt simply by typing node. It installs by default into C:\Program Files\NodeJS or C:\Program Files(x86)\NodeJS on a 64-bit machine.
It drops the node.exe, and the npm.bat file into that directory and makes it available in CMD by adding it to your %PATH%.
NPM is the Node Package Manager that was just recently made available for Windows. It allows you to download Node packages to be easily used in your projects.
The next step is to install UglifyJS and make it global so it's available everywhere.
Open Command Prompt and run…
npm -g install uglify-js
This put's the files for Uglify in the %AppData% file, usually around C:\Users\{username}\AppData\Roaming\npm\
As of 1/9/2012, there is a slight bug in the command to actually run Uglify, so in order to fix it, navigate to the folder just mentioned and find uglifyjs.cmd and replace it with…
:: Created by npm, please don't edit manually. @IF EXIST "%~dp0"\"node.exe" ( "%~dp0"\"node.exe" "%~dp0\.\node_modules\uglify-js\bin\uglifyjs" %* ) ELSE ( node "%~dp0\.\node_modules\uglify-js\bin\uglifyjs" %* )
Now, you will be able to just run Uglify by…
cd c:\place\where\files\are\ uglifyjs -o myFile.build.js myFile.js
And wham bam, you'll find a nicely compressed file. NOTE: You also may need to restart the computer. Sometimes the changes to the path don't kick in right away. You can string along as many files as you need to compress; the –o flag tells Uglify where to place the built file. Then you could save the commands out to some build.bat file and run it at your plessure.

text: As a teen, photo-journalist Doris Danger was abducted by a giant monster. Ever since, she's had a burning desire to prove the existence of giant monsters, but has been unable to prove her beliefs by snapping an indisputable photograph. While she has convinced many, she has also met many who doubt, try to disprove, or even lie, manipulate, and cover up evidence. Doris Danger crosses the X-Files with the famous Lee/Kirby giant monster comics, with a little bit of Godzilla thrown in for good measure!

After spearheading the push to secure Manatee County funding for a new concession building for Manatee East Little League at Lakewood Ranch Park, League Board Member Allen Steinfeld still faced a $30,000 shortfall.
That's when he approached Neal Communities' Pat Neal and asked him to take a tour of the current concession area. And after Neal saw the mud-filled accommodations and dilapidated trailer, he pledged the money needed to get the new building started.
"We're longtime residents and raised our own kids here," Neal said. "Providing facilities that encourage kids to get involved in sports is paramount to a community's success – kids who are involved in sports are more likely to be achievers in school and other aspects of their lives. It was just the right thing to do."
Steinfeld said Neal's final $30,000 completes a dream for the league and the community.
"The combined efforts of the board members, Manatee County, small business owners and parents of the little leaguers demonstrate how a community can come together to make an important project for kids and their families a reality," he said.
The new Manatee East Little League Concession Building will include restrooms, storage space and ample space for concession sales, of which a percentage goes back to the Manatee East Little League. Staffed by Manatee East Little League Board and family members, the facility not only will benefit the players, which total between 200-400 kids depending on the season, but also their families and other visitors who use the park.
Total cost for the new building is estimated at $150,000, with $100,000 committed from Manatee County thanks to the support from County Commissioner Donna Hayes and Manatee County Parks and Recreation. In addition, another $20,000 was raised through fundraising programs, East County families, board members and other individual and corporate contributions.
"The new concession building project is another important example of how public and private enterprises can effectively work together to come up with a solution for a much-needed facility," Hayes said. "Kids, baseball and supporting youth and other important sports programs are vital to our community, both from an economic as well as quality-of-life issue."
Construction, to be performed by J.K. Fowler General Contractor Inc., is planned to commence within the week. Michael Otis, from CPA Construction Inc., was instrumental in organizing the process with the building contract and Manatee County. Scheduled completion is by the end of January 2010, in time for the opening of the 2010 Spring Season, which begins mid-February.

Never ever inspired by Bianca!
Here is mine:
I will never ever wear a football jersey of any kind. Particularly rugby league. I have my reasons.
I will never ever tire of spinach and feta as a flavour, ditto for chocolate and raspberries. Never ever.
I will never ever learn to ski. It just looks like an easy way to break a leg.
I will never ever stop renovating our house in my head. (I said in my head Chef, stop hyperventilating)
I will never ever be swayed from my love of Antique White USA paint colour.
I will never ever understand the obsession some people have with taking their children to Disneyland.
I will never ever stop being enraged by this countries racist treatment of asylum seekers.
I will never ever get sick of the sound of Busy cackling her head off when being tickled by Chef.
I will never ever go on a holiday that involves walking-camping-walking-camping for several days.
I will never jump out of a plane.
I will NEVER vote Liberal/Nationals.
I will never eat McDonalds. Never ( it has been nearly 15 years since I have)
I will never get my lips botoxed.
I will never be impressed by the type of car someone drives.
What would you never? I would love to know- I know I will agree with lots of you!
21 comments:
Geeze, I am with you on the plane thingy. I make a point of never doing anything that scares the s&$t out of me whether it is a roller coaster or an R rater horror movie...
We are taking our kids to Disneyland in a couple of months because we are in the neighbourhood. But I am hoping to ignore the excessive commercialism and have a great, roller-coaster free visit.
I will never understand why people crochet and knit food.
I will never dress my pets up in
I will never eat peas.
There are plenty more but I'd have to think a bit/I'm agreeing with you there alot, especially, the football jersey thing, the Disneyland thing (if my husband ever takes kids near the place I will be op shopping instead!!), I'm afraid I'll also add the theme parks of Queensland to that list too!, skiing, jumping out of planes, McDonalds (thankfully I've managed to instill that one in my kids also, they've had it about once and didn't like it!). I'll add Starbucks to the list, never drank it and never will, prefer to support local cafe owners with my addiction. I will never have one of those "my family" collection of stickers on the back window of my car.
there's sure to be more, but can't think of them at the moment. S:)Love your list!! Had a laugh at the Disney Land one, as I feel just the same. Zero interest. Amazing how many people asked us if we were going to DL on our recent trip to the US. They looked dumbfounded when I said no! We went to see family, much more exciting I think!
Hope you are keeping well..off to check out Bianca's post now xoI'm with you on loads of those Cath.
here are some of my own favourites.
I will never abseil or climb up or down a building.
I will never eat sago pudding (don't ask, the trauma!)
I will never have anything tucked lifted or boosted!
I will always love the smell of the sea.
I will always love my children even when they do stupid things!
I will always feel the luckiest person in the world to have the love of an amazing special person.
I will never take my wonderful friends for granted.
I will never stop having fun!Let me think about it, Cath. You've definitely inspired me, although I share only a couple of your
nevers: the McDonalds one; and the one you wrote about skiing and how it "just looks like an easy way to break a leg."(P.S. I just discovered your map pillows. Perfection! Any retailers carrying them in Florida? I love your sense of humor and wonder how you come up with ideas.)(Also, I've never posted a blog response before. Is that too crazy. I'm glad to finally be giving it a spin.)Let me think about it, Cath. You've definitely inspired me, although I share only a couple of your

I'm glad to finally be giving it a spin.)I love your blog. Let's see...
I will never ever let my kids go to bed without them knowing I love them absolutely and completely. No matter what.
I will never ever be so proud as to not apologize for something I did wrong.
I will never ever stop drinking good wine. I don't care what anyone says about it being bad for our health.
I will never stop being amazed at the beauty of nature.
I will never take my life for granted - and in the same vein, I will never - like you - ever, ever, ever jump out of an airplane. Unless it is on fire.
I will never not have a vegetable garden - shoddy as it is, at least it is there.
I will never stop telling my Mother I love her - even though sometimes it makes her uncomfortable and other times I am mad at her.
I will never stop feeling that my Grandmother is with me - even though she died 2 years ago.
Thanks for the great blog.
