Party Down South insider spills on the most 'bizarre' moment in PDS history
Last week, we left poor Lyle somewhere between stages one and two of grief — shock and denial, and pain and guilt — over the alleged infidelity of his fiancée, Santana (not to mention, the brawl between Santana and Lyle's housemates).
Moving into this week, though, it appears Lyle is progressing nicely into the anger and bargaining phase of his emotions. This change in perception is quite possibly spurred by a call from Santana informing him she's headed to Cowboys, a bar they agreed she wouldn't frequent without him.

But first, let's talk about Miss Mattie's promising new gentleman caller, DJ. And by gentleman caller, I clearly mean that guy she scored with two weeks back who may or may not have stood her up at the club.
Only, he didn't. Despite the fact Mattie accidentally hung up on him at the close of last week's episode, persistence paid off (on her part... our girl loves a redial button) — the two were able to, ahem, reconnect.
Alas, in the harsh light of day, Mattie realizes softspoken DJ isn't really her type outside of the sack. To think, the guy even endured a rather paternal talking to from Daddy in which he promised to "haunt" DJ if he hurt Mattie.
Hmm, Daddy as a ghost... what would that look like, you think? Ebenezer Booze? The Ghost of Funnels Past?
Ultimately, Mattie picks up the cheeseburger phone and calls DJ a cab, 'cause she's a lady, y'all. But she is admittedly grateful for the brief time they spent together, because it showed her "there are some nice guys out there."
Explains Sally Ann Salsano, 495 Productions president, and founder and creator/executive producer of Party Down South, "Mattie was in no rush to get into a relationship. And, listen, the boys like to have fun, so why can't the girls and not catch flak for it? She liked DJ, but Mattie is no fool. The track record will show you — dating in the Party Down South house usually doesn't work for anyone."
Who doesn't love them some Mattie this season? Anyway, as they say, on to the next one!
Now, back to poor Lyle. After his first phone call with Santana, Boudreaux heads straight for the porch — where a funnel is waiting. He relays the conversation to Murray, Daddy and Walt, who all agree that things aren't looking so hot for Miss Santana. They're officially switching teams.
At that point, Lyle knows he needs to press Santana for the truth. He calls her back and straight up accuses her of cheating on him and "playing the f***" out of him. All he wants is for her to be real. Because, real talk, homegirl has had plenty of opportunities to come clean.
But still no dice. Santana is sticking to her story and Lyle is D-O-N-E.
"Lyle wasn't sleeping at all. I mean, at all," Salsano reveals of Lyle's abrupt change of heart. "Maybe 20 minutes here and there. You could see it was really, truly hurting him, and we really just wanted to see him get a full night's rest. So if going home was going to be able to help him get peace of mind, get some rest and come back as the wild Lyle we all love, we figured it was for the best. We were afraid he may not come back, but not working it all out was eating away at him."
More:Party Down South insider opens up about [SPOILER]'s shocking exit
Hott Dogg invited her man, Cody, to come visit, and she is adorably over-the-moon excited to see him when the doorbell rings — even more so when he reveals he brought along their fur baby, Haven. And now that Cody's in the house, everyone is ready to get lit. Well, everyone except Mattie, who is still recovering from her late-night sexcapades with DJ. She volunteers to puppy-sit.
Before they head out, Lyle tells the gang that he will probably be flying out the next morning to gather his belongings from Santana's house. They're shocked, but obviously hella pumped about the new development.
In fact, they even predict wild Lyle will make an appearance tonight. Or, in the sage words of Daddy, "The best way for Boudreaux to get over some girl is for him to get under another." They should put that pearl of wisdom in fortune cookies or something.
Wild Lyle's a little rusty, though, and he seems unsure of himself at the bar. Meanwhile, Hott Dogg and Cody are dangerously close to pretzeling right in the middle of the joint, much to Tiffany's dismay. Fortunately, they decide to move their major PDA sesh to (where else?) the bathroom stall.
As steamy as it got, Salsano says she wasn't about to run interference. "I've seen worse! Back in Biloxi, Daddy and Hott Dogg would act like that all the time, and the roomies would tell them to knock it off," Salsano says. "Who am I to ruin someone's good time?"
Daddy is faring pretty well, too. After doin' a bit of dirty dancing with a girl named Tara, he invites her back to the house. More on that in a minute.
As for Lyle, he winds up reeling in not one, but two chicks. Mission accomplished, eh? So the entire crew loads up in cabs for the ride back to the house. On the way, Lyle spills the beans about his very recent breakup.
For some reason, this sparks an intense debate between Daddy's tequila-swiggin' chick, Tara, and Lyle's two ladies, whose names I've since forgotten. Tequila must make Tara feisty, because she cannot stop talking shit. Since Daddy is worried that might ruin Lyle's chances to score with his girl(s?), he takes one for the team and sends Tara packing.
Then, in a twist no one saw coming, Lyle's dates reveal that they are, uh, witches.
Tiff is totally into this whole concept, so she asks Ava (I think?) to read their palms. Ava says Lyle's palm reveals he has a long lifeline — but that his loveline is broken around the age of 30 and never recovers.
Afterward, because this night needed to get even creepier apparently, Ava the witch tells Daddy his palm reveals he's going to die soon.
Yikes. Lyle is definitely not digging "the wicked witch of the South" and he sends both ladies home in a cab. For good reason, too. According to Salsano, it was a surreal experience.
"It was as bizarre as it felt [to watch]. We all looked at each other and asked, 'Is this really happening?' And, frankly, with what we see all the time, if you can get that reaction out of us behind the scenes... you might be bizarre," she says.
More:Party Down South's final season starts rocky for one heartbroken housemate
The next morning, Lyle books his flight home. As he is waiting for his cab to show up, Santana's spidey senses kick in and she calls. Mattie intercepts the call, and she is not amused when Santana restates her same tired story.
Mattie tells her, "There's a point you can sit there and be a woman and say, 'I f***ed up, but I love you enough to 'fess up and take the consequences."
Once again, Mattie FTW.
When Santana still sticks to her story, Mattie gets Lyle. In a Hail Mary, Santana begs her fiancé not to give up on them, insisting "you have to be a man; you have to take care of me."
It's safe to say no one envies Lyle in this moment, and everyone wants to see the carefree, duck-call-blowin' Lyle of seasons past. So if Salsano could have stepped in and given Lyle some advice at that point, what would it have been?
"This is a tough one," she says. "I believe people need to make their own choices and live with them. Otherwise you can't learn. We all make choices in life that we look back on and say, 'What the hell was I thinking?!' I've dated people that when I look back I should have never been with, but it's made me who I am. At the end of the day, some people don't need or can't hear advice — they just have to work through it on their own to get to the other side."

Tech-savvy users, across multiple segments from healthcare to finance and manufacturing to government, are key indicators for marketers as they plan to reach a broader business audience. More than 40% said vendors' presence on the social Web positively influenced them related to satisfaction with the company (45%), likelihood to purchase (43%) and willingness to recommend a company (43%). As to what buyers look for in social sites, just over 50% seek information about product offerings/directions, see product reviews/rankings and respond to customer questions.
Massive Mobile Use
Use of mobile devices is pervasive. Seventy-five percent own/regularly use at least two smartphones and/or tablets. The vast majority use the devices for everything from email to apps, and content consumption including multimedia. Tablets topped smartphones in every application category.
Users are doing more than collecting information. Forty-one percent purchased a product in a six-month period, and 40% looked for a product in a retail store. Again, tablets led smartphones in this b-to-b survey conducted last summer.
Lights, Cameras, Action
For 95% of b-to-b tech buyers, the Web is a constant source of tech-related videos: 82% of the respondents post, forward and/or share such videos. Many are not passive viewers, either. Almost half purchased a product, nearly three-quarters researched an item and approximately half visited a vendor site, contacted a vendor for more information or looked for a product in a retail store.
Grazing for Information
The reliance on digital media is a given but what media is preferred is not as clear. Ninety-two percent do go to technology web sites, 60% tech vendor web sites, and 58% tech-related print publications. The importance of tech related media and vendor web sites is important data for marketers as is almost a third of the survey respondents turned to the social web in their search for information.
While search is an important tool for discovery, when choosing what to read on the web, 88% of buyers say they are more likely to click on a link from a familiar and trusted source as they strongly prefer unbiased product test/reviews/opinions (93%) and relevant content (86%). As for what content they will register for the top items are newsletter (56%), mobile apps (49%), and white papers (46%). Again, trust in the source of the information drives more engagement.
Granted, some tech buyers are pioneers and out-front compared to other users. But they're trendsetters and good indicators for marketers across industries and titles. As mobile and social converge, both need to be a major part of your 2013 marketing plans.

About Joy Hayes
My name is Joy Hayes, and I am an ethics consultant based in the Washington, D.C. area. I concentrate on training individuals at all levels of an organization—from entry-level employees to board members—how to practice ethics in the workplace.
My Teaching Philosophy
My teaching is guided by the understanding that living ethically requires more than knowledge about what is ethical—it is a skill that requires practice. For this reason, I will utilize active learning techniques to help your employees gain the knowledge they need to make good decisions on behalf of your organization and give them opportunities to practice applying that knowledge during the training session.
My teaching is also guided by a focus on processes as well as specific behaviors and measurable outcomes. There at least are two reasons this is important.
- Your employees regularly have to make decisions on behalf of your organization that are not pre-determined by rules. In such cases, it is beneficial for them to have a decision-making procedure that is likely to lead to ethical behavior.
- Even if measurable outcomes indicate success in certain areas, there may be harmful behavior under the surface that is difficult to recognize unless you pay close attention to the process. For example, you might think your organization has achieved the goal of respecting diversity because it has a high percentage of women and minorities in high-level positions at your organization. However, truly respecting diversity also requires listening to these individuals, empowering them to do their jobs, and giving them opportunities to grow and advance. To do these things, the organization needs to closely monitor its processes and social relationships and adjust them when necessary.

I tried my first sample to see how it works and it was horrible. I didn't prime my base and they immediately began falling apart. I tried again to have bases for my bikes. I primed the bases red and then applied the crackle. I waited a day and I came back to it. There was some over hang with the paste that I had to cut and file away. I was afraid that they would start breaking off. I was in luck. The priming allowed me to work with it and not have any chipping.

Enchanting Lisbon
I hadn't even intended to go to Lisbon.
I had a rough idea of where I wanted to go, on this trip, with the bulk of it being Spain, but my friend Glenn Patscha (he's a great professional musician who plays with Ollabelle and The Big Bright, among others (including Marc Cohn and Sheryl Crow)) recommended that I check out Portugal since I'd be nearby.
It was an amazing suggestion. I had no idea what to expect from Spain. I knew what I wanted from it, but didn't know whether it would deliver.

No. In fact, a consumer proposal prevents your creditors from garnishing your wages and protects your income to ensure a reasonable standard of living.
Your employer was already contacted by your creditors so they could garnish your wages. In order to stop this wage garnishment, we will have no choice but to inform your employer of your consumer proposal. To avoid this, you should consider filing a consumer proposal before one of your creditors garnishes your wages.
If you are in default with the payment terms of your consumer proposal, your consumer proposal will be annulled and your creditors can resume their legal collection actions.
Tax refunds are not affected by filing a consumer proposal and will continue to be sent to you by the government.
If you finished school more than seven years ago, you will not have to pay off your student loan because it becomes a dischargeable debt upon the completion of your consumer proposal.
Otherwise you will have to continue paying off your loan.
Income taxes owed before the date of filing the consumer proposal can be included and are almost always dischargeable, therefore you will not have to pay them.
You will keep control of your assets in a consumer proposal.
When you have fulfilled your obligations under the terms of the consumer proposal, you will receive a Certificate of Full Performance. You are then relieved of any further obligation to pay those creditors.
It varies by credit agency. In general, your credit score will be affected for 3 years after you have paid the full amount promised to your creditors in your consumer proposal. You may be able to rebuild your credit earlier, though. Our experts can show you how to fix your credit.

Schools & Colleges
My arrival at the field education in some ways felt like coming home. I have educators in my family, with my father working as a teacher, principal and superintendent of schools, and my sister as a middle school teacher. When I finished college, I went another way and pursued a career in law. That path took me to Cleveland, Ohio, where I worked with an amazing group of colleagues in the field of public finance. During that time, however, I spent time each week tutoring middle school students in math and science (and showing them that lawyers can like math and science – and find those subjects useful!). These experiences reminded me of how much I enjoy teaching. After four years of the law, I decided to become a teacher.
The decision to be a teacher led me back to Denver, and I started teaching high school social studies in Denver Public Schools. During my years of teaching, I found myself working with thoughtful and talented people who cared deeply about students. I discovered that teaching involved a lot of learning, and that experience sparked my desire for more education. I left the secondary school classroom to pursue more education at the University of Colorado Boulder.
That brings me to the University of Colorado Denver, where I teach classes about social studies teaching methods. Engaging in the practice of teaching teachers feels like coming back to my family roots. As I think about the classes that I teach here and what I want students to think about when they leave, I hope it is that the teacher candidates continually ask the question about education that my father taught me to ask: Is this best for the students? It's not always an easy question to answer and requires constant reflection; but, it reminds me, and hopefully my students, of how complex and beautiful teaching can be.
The students here have amazing experiences and backgrounds to draw upon as teachers. They are passionate, and they see something within themselves that lets them know that they can make a difference. Perhaps more importantly, they are willing to look at students as individuals and know that each one is deserving of a good education.
I enjoy spending time exploring the world with my lovely wife. We enjoy hiking and biking together and camping with friends.

Autumn Pinks at Southern Exposure
Here are a few more photos -- focusing on the wonderful pinks and reds.
The hydrangeas are always favorites.
I loved seeing the frail, beautiful petals and skeleton leaves.
Pale pink roses in a bird bath.
The fountains weren't without their beautiful arrangements, either.
I loved the mix of hot pinks and oranges.
There's something about this color combo I can't resist!
Pumpkins everywhere, set off by red petunias.
The nasturtiums had plenty of red to share.
And of course the trees were in full color.
Elaborate fountains.
Glorious flowering kale.
The pale pinks and burgundy of the grasses.
And the last roses of summer.
This post is linked with several blog parties this week including Share Your Cup, Thoughts of Home on Thursday and Pink Saturday. Please check out all the wonderful links for great ideas on decorating, cooking, crafts and lots of eye candy!

Pink and orange as natural colors in flowers, leaves, and fruit, are vivid and beautiful. As I looked at your photos I was thinking about how these colors appear in fabric prints or wall paper -- usually made so stylized and garish. And thinking about how the combination was once popular, but no longer. But the natural colors are eternal...

There is still so much color to rejoice over! We still have many late summer flowers in bloom coupled with the fabulous colors of fall. The burning bush here has a pink tint and the hydrangeas, YES! I love this muted phase of summer blush.

You might be enjoying your last rose of summer but the Aussie roses are just bursting into full bloom and are glorious at the moment, lovely photos Jeanie. I love the roses in the bird bath, that's a clever idea :)

Those beautiful blossoms are such a delight, especially so late in the season. Even here in Wisconsin we're still looking at our Dragon Wing begonias, dahlias, and even our house plants (that will be brought in the end of next week), because we're having an unusually late fall. It's perfect weather. I enjoyed your photos, and that flowering kale. It is such a beautiful plant.

Beautiful photos, Jeanie! I needed a bright pop of colors this morning to offset my sort of (ok, really) grumpy mood (I'm dealing with a difficult/demanding tenant situation). Pink is my favorite color so I especially love these photos. Those grounds are just stunning!!

A few weeks ago I attended Le Chateau's "Expert Style" event and picked up my fuzzy white neck friend and some rings. Then I loitered around the sidewalk resulting in these pictures.
From the looks of these, I`m really just a popped collar away from being those lurkers hanging outside the chicks' washroom at a night club. I always wonder what kind of ladies do they pick up doing that? Perhaps they're attracted to ones with an empty bladder.

Windows 7 can run on machines with lower specs than required for Windows Vista, and many users are actually finding it runs better than Windows XP on lower spec machines. It's also ideal to run on newer netbook machines, but unfortunately many of these do not include a DVD drive so how do you install windows 7 on a machine without a DVD drive?
I spent yesterday researching this exact problem and I managed to install Windows 7 on my Acer Aspire One netbook in around 20 minutes using a 4GB USB Drive. Setting up the USB drive to install Windows 7 was fairly easy in the end, and the installation was quicker than a DVD drive, so this method is perfect if you want to install Windows 7 quickly on several machines.
How To Install Windows 7 From A USB Drive
- Find a standard 4GB USB Drive and plug it into your machine
- Click Start in your enter 'cmd' in the run field. Once cmd is open type in 'diskpart' and a new window will open
- In the new diskpart window type:
- 'list disk' : This lists all the disk drives attached to your machine
- Look for your USB drive and note the number and then type: 'select disk #', where '#' is your USB disk number
- then type 'clean'
- then type 'create partition primary'
- then 'select partition 1?
- then 'active'
- then 'format fs=fat32 quick'
Once you've finished these steps you then need to copy your Windows 7 files to the USB. To do this you have to mount your Windows 7 ISO as a virtual DVD. Doing this is easy:
- Install MagicDisk (free)
- once installed, right-click on MagicDisk in your system tray click on 'Virtual CD/DVD-Rom', select your DVD drive
- then 'Mount' and in the dialog window that opens up, select your Windows 7 ISO
- Now in windows Explorer, click on your DVD drive and you should see all the Windows 7 Files. All you have to do now is copy and paste all the files to your USB key and you have a Windows 7 USB Installation Stick!
- Install the stick in the PC you want to install Windows 7 on and boot up. Remember to change your bios to allow booting from USB
If you follow the steps above then you should have no problems installing Windows 7 from a USB key. But if you do, leave a comment below.

The San Francisco Bay Area is home to more than 8 million people and the world's leading innovation and technology companies including Google, Facebook, Cisco and Hewlett-Packard. Dozens of colleges and universities, most notably Stanford and the University of California, Berkeley, reside in the region.
So how does RIT get noticed among these brand giants and enhance its presence in the Bay Area? Nearly two dozen alumni, comprised of accomplished leaders and entrepreneurs who live in the region, gathered this fall to discuss branding opportunities for the university. RIT Trustee Richard Sands, chairman of Constellation Brands, hosted the event at Robert Mondavi Winery in Napa Valley and gave the keynote address on branding.
"RIT has a big opportunity for branding itself," said Sands. "Outside of Silicon Valley, Rochester is one of the strongest centers of technical and intellectual properties, innovation and investments. And this is in large part due to RIT. But people don't know this."
Nearly 2,000 RIT alumni live in the Bay Area, and current students gain valuable work experience at firms large and small through the cooperative education program. Yet alumni at the session believe there are more opportunities to expose the entrepreneurial region to RIT.
Sands learned about the power of branding at an early age. His father, Marvin, started a wine company in 1945, which eventually evolved into Canandaigua Wine Co., firmly rooted in New York's Finger Lakes region. Today, with $6 billion in sales and 6,000 employees worldwide, Constellation is the world leader in premium wine, the No. 1 multi-category beverage alcohol company in the U.S., the No. 1 beer importer and the No. 3 beer company in the U.S.
When Maria Falaschi, a native of the Bay Area, was researching where to go to college, RIT was not on her radar.
"Being a Californian, Cal Poly (California Polytechnic State University) was the clear and only choice—or so I thought," she said. "I eventually found out that RIT was the top college in my area of study."
Falaschi '03, '06 (graphic communications, MBA), who returned home after graduation and today owns a digital marketing firm, reconnected with marketing professor Neil Hair at the alumni event.
Hair gave the group a presentation on RIT's new Innovative Learning Institute, an umbrella organization that integrates the work of three units—RIT Online, the Center for Multidisciplinary Studies and Teaching & Learning Studio—to bring the latest practices to learning online and in the classroom. The Bay Area alumni were asked to give feedback about the Innovative Learning Institute.
"I think there is great value in providing an affordable education that delivers skills that can be put to use immediately on the job," said Ed Wolf '09 (computer engineering), who is a technology partner at Facebook. "The convenience of online learning plus the academic reputation of RIT will help anyone attain their career goals."
On RIT's opportunity to grow its reputation in the Bay Area, Wolf added: "Many companies recruit from the same core group of universities when competing for top talent. By building a presence in the region, RIT can build awareness of its academic programs and build stronger relationships with the companies looking for talent within the STEM (science, technology, engineering and math) disciplines."
RIT's assets will attract the intellectually curious of the region, many alumni concluded. "RIT is one of the most authentic schools out there for design, engineering, business," said Chris Zacharias '04 (information technology, new media), CEO of imgix.com, a San Francisco-based startup Web service that instantly re-sizes, re-crops and re-formats images.
"Everyone out here craves authenticity, legacy and craftsmanship. RIT has that in spades. If you can effectively communicate that RIT is a modern institution, and yet also communicate that you actually have a history, I think that will resonate."
Sands noted that RIT's brand must connect with diverse audiences varying from alumni to corporate partners. Connecting with the diverse customers across the globe has been a hallmark for Constellation and its vast portfolio of wines, spirits and beer.
"As an entrepreneur and agent of change, my path has crossed RIT's many times leaving me with great stories of how RIT, through collaboration and innovation, has changed or may change the world," Sands said. "These are the stories that if properly told, each to the select audience, will make that difference in the minds of people outside the inner circle that may lead them to engage with RIT— this is the power of branding."
In the Fall edition of The University Magazine, we will be taking a deeper look at RIT alumni who live and work in the San Francisco Bay Area. We'd like to hear your stories. Email us at firstname.lastname@example.com.

Jay Devereaux is an Information Technology
Consultant and small business owner that like so many of us, did not
really pay a lot of attention to what was going on in Washington DC
until ideas like Cap & Trade and T.A.R.P. The idea of the Federal
Government bailing out bankers and Wall Street firms with taxpayer
dollars was the last straw. Followed closely by the first stimulus
package, Jay like so many was yelling at his television similar to Rick
Santelli's now famous rant, when his family cried "ENOUGH! Do something
about it or shut up!"
After going to his first rally on Tax Day 2009 in
Olympia and later in Seattle Jay began to try networking with others in
his state and found a lack of coordinated information and communication.
Upon returning from having volunteered at the hugely successful
9/12/2009 March On DC, Jay met with a few fellow conservatives
and presented an idea to network the smaller groups in WA state. After a
few meetings, together with the help of many leaders, The Washington
Patriot Hub was created as a communication and networking conduit
for groups throughout Washington.
Like Unite In Action, the success and
popularity of The Washington Patriot Hub is largely due to a true bottom
up network where organizations maintain their autonomy and identity
while working with other like minded groups and individuals to more
effectively bring resources to bear and to support of each other's
initiatives. In late 2009 Jay was invited to join the Board of Directors
for UIA and manages to organizations various websites and social
networking presence.
Larry Burton, formerly the CFO of The
National 912 Project, Inc. became the CFO of Unite In Action, Inc
since its formation in November of 2009. Larry has a BBA from the Univ.
of Cincinnati and an MBA from the Univ of Utah. He is an Alumni of
Deloitte CPA firm.
He also is a retired Air Force Colonel who briefed
Generals and Congressional staffers on the financial status of military
systems under development.
Larry, owner of a small business, spoke at a Tea
Party event about his concerns over Government financial mismanagement.
Larry and his wife, Kay, have a family of Jeff & Jamie (and first
grandchild, Shay) and Julie and Bob.

Anyway, it was amazing. So, here are my favourite five this week.

Dr. Pamela Sutton specializes in hospice care for the terminally ill, a field in which you have to accept the inevitability of your patients` deaths.
But now the Pompano Beach physician is traveling both to the other end of the earth and the other end of the medical spectrum, one in which she is refusing to accept the inevitability of death for the millions of starving Ethiopians.
``We have to try to save these people now and hope the long-term solution comes in time for the ones you save today,`` Sutton said.
Sutton, 36, plans to leave this week for Ethiopia, where she will work at a feeding camp about five hours away -- journeying by Land Roverfrom the capital city of Addis Ababa. She leaves behind a small but established medical practice and the comforts of civilization for an uphill struggle against an overwhelming famine and three months of living in a tent in the hinterlands of Ethiopia.
``I`m not really sure what I`ll find there. It sounds like they have some (intravenous lines) and feeding tubes. I can`t tell if they have any medicine there,`` Sutton said. ``They do have capabilities for feeding children who are so weak they can`t swallow.``
Ethiopians from nearby tribes come to the camp for relief, and Sutton and five nurses have the task of deciding which are most badly nourished and thus need intensive feeding.
Sutton is in New York while the group sponsoring her trip, the National Council of Churches, is straightening out visa problems that have delayed her journey. She left Pompano Beach about a week ago.
She realizes she is only one person against a seemingly insurmountable tide of hunger. She realizes the people she feeds today could die tomorrow.

No matter what people may say about the Kardashians, they do have standout style. Kourtney Kardashian was recently spotted in this super cute black and white ensemble, and we like that Kourtney used classic pieces with trendy touches to create a very retro kind of look. A pleated skirt and white button up shirt are pieces that you will wear forever and can pair with anything in your closet. Kourtney combines the two classics and chose to add girlie touches to artfully avoid looking like a waiter at Olive Garden. We love how the black bow tie at the neck pops against the white shirt, the silver embellished belt is a fun choice for bling, and the lace up Victorian style boots take Kourtney's look to, well, nothing less of what we'd expect from a Dash girl.
Get Kourtney's look for less:

Remember Why You Started Competing in the First Place!
It was fun! It was exciting! You were pushing yourself to your limits and learning so much more about yourself and your body. You were growing both physically, emotionally,mentally & spiritually. Well, guess what?! It STILL IS!! It's a passion! If you remember why you started, you won't dread going to the gym... You won't dread planning out your meals.. you won't dread doing the cardio.. Learn to appreciate that this should be a LIFESTYLE rather than simply a phase in your life. Not to mention it's what you do all year around that shows up on stage on contest day.
People look up to you during your contest prep and "OOO" and "Awww" over your show pictures. If you go back to eating junk and becoming a couch potato once you step off stage, what kind of example are you setting for others?! Remember, people are always watching you!
I'm not saying you can never venture off and have a cheat meal, or that you have to restrict your calories at all times. Just make intelligent decisions and remember everything in moderation. Set that example and show others it IS possible to live a healthy lifestyle, be happy, be active, and ENJOY LIFE!!!!

The Human Factor (Borah Bergman, Soul Note).
Pianist Borah Bergman draws on the work of Cecil Taylor, even John Cage. But he also has affinities with Ornette Coleman. That, to my ear, gives his work a saving shapeliness that makes its complexity worth penetrating. Here he plays duets with drummer Andrew Cyrille. They are as sweet as his own composition, "When Autumn Comes," and as grainy as John Coltrane's "Chasin' the Train."

Anna is a 3-and-a-half month old pit bull. She and her brother had most of their ears cut off and when officers found her two weeks ago the ears looked badly infected.
"The stitches were holding the flesh together along here and it was monofilament fishing line," said Gary Tiscornia from the SPCA for Monterey County. "It's active mutilation of a dog. It's absolutely senseless."
The SPCA for Monterey County is looking for Damian Maldanado. He claims to be a licensed vet who can do ear cropping and tail docking -- surgeries that dog owners opt to do for cosmetic purposes.
But in five particular cases, the results were horrifying. Officers took photos of a Doberman's tail completely cut off and its ears taped to popsicle sticks post surgery.
Officers raided Maldanado's Salinas home Thursday, but couldn't find him. A neighbor, who didn't want to be identified, says he hears nonstop barking from Maldanado's house. He went onto say he knows the dogs are not playful, that they are claiming their territory and clearly are under distress.
Authorities believe Maldanado operated on animals all over the state, including Fresno and Santa Clara County. There is a $5,000 reward available to anyone who helps with Maldanado's arrest.

On October 23, 2013, the Los Angeles Philharmonic and the Los Angeles Master Chorale performed Frank Zappa's 200 Motels (The Suites) at the Walt Disney Concert Hall in L.A. I was deeply honored to be part of this production. 200 Motels and 1000 light years had passed and we left that once-in-a-lifetime moment with love in our hearts and deafening appreciation of Frank Zappa's monumental posthumous triumph ringing in our ears.
The performance from that night has just been released by Zappa Records/UMe on two-CDs and digital audio. More info can be found at: http://prn.to/1Yq22qy

I. In Focus This Week
Law & Order: Elections
An occasional look at some elections lawsuits and crime
From what not to wear to the polls to drug smuggling elections board members. From Native American voting rights to 86-year-old dementia patients accidentally casting a ballot twice, the elections administration world is giving Dick Wolf some excellent ideas for future episodes of Law & Order.
This week we'll take a brief look at some elections litigation and prosecutions from around the country.
Although Shelby County, Ala.'s case against the Voting Rights Act has been getting all the media attention of late, there are numerous other elections-related lawsuits pending throughout the country at all levels of the judicial system.
The U.S. Supreme Court will hear arguments on March 18 about Arizona's proof-of-citizenship law. The law, approved by voters in 2004 has been in the courts ever since. If enacted, it would require proof-of-citizenship — passport, birth certificate, driver's license or tribal documents — in order to register to vote. The 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals said that federal law, which does not require proof-of-citizenship trumps the state law.
In 2010 a consortium of organizations affiliated with the tea party sued local elections officials and Minnesota Secretary of State Mark Ritchie saying their First Amendment rights were violated because they were unable to wear certain t-shirts and buttons into polling places during elections. Although the 8th Circuit Court of Appeals recently dismissed much of the suit, the court did rule that a portion of suit should have been evaluated under a different court rule and therefore the lower court will need to review it again.
This week, a U.S. appeals court heard arguments over the constitutionality of Nevada's "none of the above" law that allows voters to cast a ballot for none of the above. Nevada is the only state to offer voters this type of protest vote. State Republicans filed suit last year saying that the "none" option could siphon votes and sway the outcome of races—"none of the above" cannot win an election even if it garners the most votes.
Three losing candidates in Sandoval County, New Mexico filed suit against former Clerk Sally Padilla claiming that she violated citizen's voting rights by only have five polling locations open in Rio Rancho in November 2012 which led to hours long lines.
A federal judge in the U.S. Virgin Islands has dismissed a suit brought by five losing candidates seeking to throw out the 2012 general election results. Senior District Court Judge Raymond Finch said the plaintiffs failed to articulate the specific ways they were wronged.
In late February, an appellate court ruled that a lawsuit brought by a group of Native American plaintiffs against Montana Secretary of State Linda McCulloch and elections officials in several counties could go forward. The suit alleges that state and local elections officials violated portions of the Voting Rights Act when they failed to set up satellite voting sites on remote Indian reservations for the November general election. The plaintiffs include the U.S. Dept. of Justice, and the ACLU of Montana.
A district court judge in Baton Rouge nullified the November 6 election on whether or not tolls would be renewed for the Crescent City Connection in New Orleans. The judge ruled that voters were disenfranchised because more than 1,000 voters were provided provisional ballots thus preventing them from voting in the toll election.
A New Jersey Appeals Court recently heard arguments that the state's electronic voting machines must be replaced. The case began nearly a decade ago. A lower court ruled that counties across the state may continue using electronic voting machines, but lawyers for the plaintiffs—Assemblyman Reed Gusciora (D-Mercer) and the Coalition for Peace Action—argued that the appeals court should review the science behind electronic voting machines.
The Georgia Supreme Court recently heard arguments in a case involving a sheriff's race in Baker County. A superior court ruled that the election needed to be conducted a second time because there was evidence of vote buying.
Yes Virginia, there really is voter fraud.
Of course how widespread of a problem it is will be debated till the end of the time, but there have been several reported cases in recent months.
In Minnesota, an 86-year-old woman has been charged with voting twice in the 2012 primary election.
Margaret Schneider admits that she voted twice, once by absentee in July and again at the polls on August 14. But Schneider, who suffers from Parkinson's disease and dementia, says that she didn't realize at the time she was voting twice in the same election.
Under state statute the county attorney is required to prosecute, regardless of the circumstances.
Seven people in Franklin County, Ohio are currently under investigation for voter fraud. According to The Columbus Dispatch, six of the cases involve voters who voted by mail and then in-person. A spokesperson for the board of elections said that the time between when both ballots were cast is so short that investigators don't think the ballots were cast accidentally.
Also in Ohio, three people in Hamilton County have been indicted by a Grand Jury for voting multiple times. Russell Glassop, 75, cast a ballot on behalf of his deceased wife who died before she could submit her absentee ballot. Sister Marguerite Kloos, 54, is accused of casting a ballot on behalf of another nun who died a month before the November election. Melowese Richardson, a poll worker in Hamilton County is accused of voting twice in November as well as voting on behalf of relatives during other elections.
A Wisconsin man has been charged with voting illegally after registering and voting while on probation for a felony charge. Michael Radtke admitted to voting, but said that he was unaware he was not permitted to do so.
Another convicted felon, but this one in Iowa, was recently charged with voter fraud after attempting to vote in the November election. Auditor Dawn Williams told the Times-Republican that this is only the second time she has seen this since she began working in the office in 1988.
Finally after two trials and one mistrial, former Troy, New York Councilman John Brown was sentenced to six months in the county following a plea agreement for voter fraud.
Wendy Rosen, a Maryland Democrat who was forced to end her bid for Congress after it was discovered she voted both in Maryland and Florida plead recently plead guilty to two counts of voting illegally. Following her guilty plea, Rosen released a statement saying that she voted in both jurisdictions as a protest vote to show support for the "millions of legitimate voters who have been illegally prevented from voting or having their votes counted."
A Bend, Ore. man was convicted of voter fraud after the Deschutes County elections office found a Craigslist ad from Aaron Hirschman offering to pay $20 for blank ballots. According to The Oregonian, Circuit Judge A. Michael Adler rejected Hirschman's arguments that he was only trying to cause a stir with his ad. After convicting him of a misdemeanor in a non-jury trial, Adler fined Hirschman $200 and sentenced him to 40 hours of community service.
A Florida woman recently found herself charged with submitting false voter registration information and fraud in casting a vote for registering and casting a ballot in the November 2012 election without first having her voting rights restored. The crime was discovered because she wore an "I Voted" sticker to a visit with her probation officer.
And elections crimes, or crimes that affect elections officials aren't limited to voter fraud either.
A former employee of the Passaic County, N.J. board of elections plead guilty this week to diverting more than $384, 661 from the board's account to her personal account. Yanira Martinez, who served as confidential secretary to the county's superintendent of elections faces up to seven years in prison.
On the island of Guam, Chris Carillo, a Democratic member of the Guam Election Commission was charged with possession and importation of marijuana.

PARK CITY — Friday's Missouri-Wings soccer game eerily resembled Wednesday's match between the teams, which the Comets won 10-7.
But the Wings' Edvin Worley decided to tweak the ending a little bit, scoring with 1:36 left to play Friday and giving Wichita a 12-10 victory at Hartman Arena.
"Hopefully, it was one of those games that keeps the fans coming back," Wings coach LeBaron Hollimon said. "We talked about that: If we get up, let's do a better job of closing the game out."
The triumph was the first for the Wings (4-7) in four games against the Comets (8-6), with two head-to-head matches remaining. The next one is next Saturday at Hartman Arena.
Just like Wednesday, Wichita broke on top early, scoring four first-period goals for a quick 8-0 lead. But in the second period, Missouri stormed back, scoring four times, and only Jamar Beasley's power-play goal midway through the period kept Wichita ahead at halftime, 10-8.
The squads couldn't find their scoring touch in the third period. Wings goalie Sanaldo Carvalho had five of his 12 saves in the period, and his Comets counterpart, Danny Waltman, made two of his six.
In the fourth period, the pressure remained high, and shots by both teams hit the posts and crossbars. But then, Missouri tied the score at 10-10 on an unassisted goal by Byron Alvarez at the 2:46 mark.
However, the Wings drove back into the Missouri zone with less than two minutes left, and a Waltman save rebounded to Worley, who blasted the ball into the net from 25 yards out for the game-winner.
"The ball just popped out to me, and all I could think of was shoot," a jubilant Worley said. "I just put all my power behind it so he had no chance to get it."
He said it was special to get the victory at home.
"We did it for my fans, our team, it was a great win at home," he said. "We can't (afford) to lose games at home, so it was good to take this one away, and regroup for next week."
The victory gives the Wings a point in the I-35 Series promotion and closes the gap to 3-1. The crystal traveling trophy was shown to the fans at halftime.
The Wings, who jumped to a 7-2 lead in Wednesday's game, got the first four goals this time, by Alex Moseley, Alargie Jobe, Freddy Moojen and Kevin Ten Eyck. Ten Eyck also assisted on Moseley's and Jobe's goals.
John Sosa got Missouri's first goal nearly two minutes into the second period on an assist by Neto. Geison, Leo Gibson and Neto also scored unassisted goals in the period.
Missouri 0 8 0 2 —10
Wings 8 2 0 2 —12
First quarter — 1. Moseley, W, (Ten Eyck), 12:01; 2. Jobe, W, (Ten Eyck), 8:49; 3. Moojen, W, (Cushing), 7:43; 4. Ten Eyck, W, (unassisted), 5:42. Penalty — Neto, M, (tripping), 4:41.

Sometimes I decide to simply refuse to accept how fast it is all going...and then Siena says "dada" or stands up on her own...and I can't refuse. She has been 8 months of fun, a few tears, many laughs, and quite a few diapers. Last year at this time we were in Italy and that is where we felt her kick for the first time. To think that only a year ago she had no face and no name. I remember that then, when the kicks started, while I did feel some kind of closeness with her...it was just a fleeting moment. And to think that now I have a hard time remembering that there was a time before her...that there was a time when she had no face, no name. If this is what happens in 8 months, what will happen in 8 years? I both can't wait and can't stand the time passing.
Happy 8 month B-day, kid.

Siena on her first day home
Siena is almost 8 months now...and we spend most of our time (well mommy does) trying hard to focus on now and not on how fast 'now' is passing by. In that spirit, what follows are a few memories of Siena as a newborn and her first few months. But only a few, so we can do 'now' the best we can.

Andres Carbacho-Burgos is a senior economist at Moody's Economy.com. Previously he was an economics professor at Texas State University.
Harlan Levy: Are we - the U.S. and Europe -- headed for a bad recession in the next four or five months?
Andres Carbacho-Burgos: We don't believe the world is headed for significantly slower growth compared to the previous two years.
Regarding Greece, we're more optimistic than some, but we still have a roughly even probability for Greece exiting the euro. The timetable of a Greek exit has been set back by the Greek elections, particularly if there's no change in the existing bailout agreement. But for the next couple of months you're likely to see Greece getting just enough money to keep the government and its banks running. By running I mean keeping them open. You're still going to see substantial job and wage cuts for the Greek government, and you're not going to see the Greek banks doing any significant lending. At least for the next several quarters the unemployment rate in Greece is going to edge up. A lot depends on how high the unemployment rate peaks. If it's high enough, you may see a change in government like in Argentina.
Our baseline forecast is that Greece muddles along for the next year or two in a deep recession.
H.L.: What are the chances that the euro zone leaders can fix the zone's toxic sovereign debt problems and keep the euro zone alive?
A.C.-B.: Technically they have the tools available. They just need to change the European framework so they start issuing euro bonds and have a greater fiscal union of the different countries. Yes, that would include putting some of the basket cases like Greece on permanent life support. The real question is whether the core countries have the political will to bring about this change and whether they do so rapidly enough to prevent Spain from exiting. If Spain exits, that's the earthquake right there.
Basically, I think they will continue to bail out Greece and Spain, but they won't do enough to improve the job situation in either country, so the real question is how long can the electorate in both countries accept things as they are now and whether or not Germany and France can put together a better fiscal arrangement for the euro zone before the political situation in Greece or Spain becomes untenable. At this point we think they will be able to do it, but the clock is starting to tick away. The deadline is probably by the end of this year when they need to have made significant progress to get a semi-permanent fiscal arrangement that does not involve emergency bailouts.
H.L.: Will they do it?
A.C.-B.: Yes.
H.L.: How do you rate the U.S. economy?
A.C.-B.: Our assumption is that Europe muddles through and does not experience a major financial earthquake. So for the euro zone as a whole you get a moderate recession that will pull down U.S. exports but will not generate a financial crisis in the U.S. Overall, that translates into slower U.S. growth, particularly since the emerging markets countries, particularly China and Brazil are also experiencing slower growth at this time.
We had to push down our U.S. forecast over the last six months. But we're still predicting a rate of 2.2 percent for this year and around 2.5 percent for 2013. It's only in 2014 that we expect growth in the U.S. to accelerate as Europe starts to climb out of recession.
H.L.: Will the stock market continue to be so volatile?
A.C.-B.: The stock market will be volatile, because it's defined by short-term news, but we're not predicting that there's going to be any major stock market collapse. We would be surprised if the S&P 500 went below 1,300 for any extended period of time.
H.L. What's ahead for housing?
A.C.-B.: We believe that the overall U.S. housing market has reached a bottom. There have been enough distressed sales now, and the remaining distressed sales over the next year or two will not put pressure on U.S. home prices as a whole.
H.L.: What areas of the U.S. economy do you like
A.C.-B.: Particular sectors of the U.S. economy that have been recession-proof because demand has been steady include the healthcare industry and higher education. There are exceptions, but private universities on the whole, and a significant share of state universities are doing fairly well.
H.L.: What's unhealthy in the U.S. economy?
A.C.-B.: Manufacturing started to recover but is facing a year or two of slower growth because of recession in Europe and slower growth in emerging markets.
Second is state and local governments. Local governments face much lower property values. State governments face lower tax revenues than they did before the recession, around 2008, and both have had to cut spending and staff substantially. That's one of the main drags on the U.S. economy right now.
The third drag, which is more regionally concentrated, is financial services. Some financial centers like New York City are still doing very well. Fairfield County and Hartford in Connecticut are doing badly because of uncertainty over Europe and also because there is still a trend toward relocation away from the Northeast. That's part of the reason why insurance carriers in the Northeast have been downsizing, relocation, notjust recession.
H.L.: What do you think of the jobs trend?
A.C.-B: In the U.S. it's been growing at a fairly steady but unspectacular rate, and of course it slowed somewhat in the past three months, so, in part because of the slowing we don't think the U.S. will return to its pre-recession peak until 2014.
H.L.: What has surprised you?
A.C.-B.: I'm concerned about how unstable the federal budget process is, in particular because we have the Bush tax cuts, whether or not they'll be extended, the trillion-dollar year-end automatic budget cuts, especially to defense, and the debt ceiling. All three of those potentially huge traffic accidents we must be very careful to avoid over the next 12 months.
H.L.: Do you think we will?
A.C.-B.: Our baseline assumption right now is that the Bush tax cuts will be phased out for the upper 1 percent and that Congress will avoid any bump into the debt ceiling and allow it to rise by the February deadline. Also, by the end of this year, Congress will put together at least a legislative package that will avoid the automatic cuts for at least the next six months or a year. In other words once again they kick the can down the road.
Disclosure: I have no positions in any stocks mentioned, but may initiate a long position in AAPL over the next 72 hours.

Helen Marie "Cookie" Baldridge, age 83, died at Stratford Convalescent Center in Elmhurst, Illinois, on Thursday, June 25, 2009. The cause was chronic pulmonary disease.
Born September 30, 1925, in Pennington, Connecticut, to Sarah Ann and Eduardo Bertini, she attended the Nottingham Academy and graduated from the Newton Fashion Institute in 1948. Helen served in the Women's Army Corps until 1945, attaining the rank of chief leader—one of the first to attain that rank. On June 5, 1946, she married Harold Penfield Baldridge.
She lived in many different places -- including Florence, Italy, and Paris, France -- before settling in Chicago, where she worked at the Illinois School of Fashion as a design instructor until retiring in 1985.
Helen was a member of the Fresh Air Society, a group she founded to promote smoke-free environments after her husband died of lung cancer. An avid gardener, she was a longtime volunteer at the Meadow Arboretum, which named a hybrid rose, "Cookie's Cluster," after her. Helen was also an expert swimmer; she tried out twice for the American Olympic team and narrowly missed qualifying. She was a dedicated Scrabble player and five-time winner of the Stratford Scrabble Marathon.
Helen will be especially remembered for her quick wit, spirit of adventure, and the tenaciousness that allowed her to achieve top rankings in many diverse endeavors.
Survivors include her longtime companion, Pat Bennington, and her sister, Nancy Walsh, of Oshkosh, Wisconsin. Helen was preceded in death by her husband, Harry.
Services will be held at on 2 p.m., Sunday, June 28, at the Meadow Arboretum, 22 Oak Park Lane, Elmhurst, Illinois. Burial will be held in private. Relatives and friends are welcome at the service and the reception at the Arboretum immediately following it, from 3 to 5 p.m.
Memorial contributions are welcome and should be mailed to the Fresh Air Society, 1940 Botts Avenue, Chicago, IL 60601.
Thanks to the staff and volunteers at Serenity Hospice for their help and support.
