BRITNEY SPEARS "Blackout" (Jive) 2.5 stars
I'll spare you any jokes about the title of Britney Spears' new album, out of respect for the pop princess' recent problems with drugs and alcohol.
Everyone seems to be waiting for her latest train wreck. After all the public meltdowns, crotch shots and her appalling performance opening MTV's VMAs show in September, her new album has to be a joke, right?
Not so fast.
Does "Blackout" contain high-quality songwriting? No. Is it particularly meaningful? Hardly.
But Spears has managed to block out the maelstrom of her personal life to create an album that's almost uniformly energetic, sexy and fun.
"Blackout" has heavy doses of techno beats, and one might expect them to sound dated and out of place. But instead, they sound fresh, as if someone finally thought of adding some digital oomph to contemporary pop and R&B songs.
Things start off weak with Spears declaring, "It's Britney, bitch" to kick off the inane first single, "Gimme More," which has a decent, dark beat that's ruined by her forced, gimmicky vocals. "Piece of Me," Britney's answer to all the tabloid attention ("I'm Ms. Lifestyles of the Rich and Famous/I'm Ms. Oh My God that Britney's Shameless"), is clever, but doesn't flow smoothly.
But from then on, the album gets better, starting with "Radar's" squelching trance synths and the sultry groove of the Janet Jackson-like "Break the Ice." The next three songs are the album's strongest: The Moroder keyboard-powered "Heaven on Earth" has a dreamy `80s feel mixed with Depeche Mode's haunting side; the stomping electro of "Get Naked (I Got a Plan)" is perfect for a steamy club; and "Freakshow's" quavering keyboard riffs under Milkshake-style vocals just might bring all the boys to the yard.
Add the funkadelic future club hit Hot as Ice's singalong chorus - "I'm cold as fire, baby, hot as ice/If you've ever been to heaven this is twice as nice" - and "Blackout" rivals Britney's previous work.
The comeback has officially begun.
Pod Picks: "Get Naked (I Got a Plan)," "Freakshow," "Hot as Ice."

EAGLES "Long Road Out of Eden" (Eagles Recording Co.) 3 stars
It's easy to be put off by the Eagles, in particular, ol' curmudgeon Don Henley, who complains about corporate greed on several new songs on "Long Road Out of Eden," the Eagles' seventh studio album and first in - wow - 28 years.
Henley bemoans how we "worship at the marketplace while common sense is going out of style" on the cranky "Business as Usual," yet the Eagles have partnered with Wal-Mart to sell the set. (The two-CD, 20-track "Long Road" can also be had via eaglesband.com).
It's easy to gripe about that dichotomy, but sincerity was never the Eagles' strongest point. Glorious harmonies and irresistible songwriting has always been the reason for the Eagles' vast reach. For lengthy stretches of the exquisitely produced and tuneful "Long Road," the Eagles' return to the studio is most welcome.
"Long Road Out of Eden" opens with a near a capella snippet, "No More Walks in the Wood," and the four-part harmonies are as immaculate as ever. The Top 25 country single "How Long" is instantly familiar in the "Already Gone" mode. The infectious "Busy Being Fabulous" is prime pop and the seven-minute ballad "Waiting in the Weeds" offers a patented pretty Eagles melody and delivery as if the ensuing decades since 1979's "The Long Run" never happened.
Not everything's as stellar. Timothy B. Schmit's sugary ballads, Glenn Frey's pallid Tropicali closer "It's Your World Now" and the cloying "I Love to Watch a Woman Dance" could easily be scrapped. The ambitiously sprawling title track jeremiad never quite gels into a full-bodied song the way "Hotel California" did. (This is where distinctive guitarist Don Felder, fired in 2001, is especially missed).
But "Long Road's" plentiful pleasures are echoed in Henley's line, "I've been waiting in the weeds - waiting for my time to come around." Given the Eagles' ongoing influence on contemporary country artists, the group's time has never really left. Thankfully, this foursome's gift for making ear-pleasing new music hasn't, either.
Pod Picks: "Waiting in the Weeds," "Busy Being Fabulous," "Somebody."

NEIL YOUNG "Chrome Dreams II" (Reprise) 3 ½ stars
"Chrome Dreams II" serves up a smorgasbord of Neil Young's vintage chameleonic styles, including gentle country twang, sloppy garage-rock and sprawling epics, with a healthy helping of spirituality.
"Beautiful Bluebird" - with Mr. Soul's signature, lazy, front-porch harmonica and love-it-or-hate-it fractured, lulling voice - immediately transports the listener to the "After the Gold Rush" or "Harvest" eras. "Ever After" is another country triumph, with slide guitar enhancing its beautiful simplicity.
Young also brings back his Crazy Horse cohorts on the crashing rockers "Ordinary People" and "No Hidden Path." The former is an 18-minute ode to hard work and honesty with a chorus that will stick in your head. But it doesn't remain engaging for nearly 20 minutes.
"No Hidden Path," powered by Young's crunchy, distortion-soaked guitar riffs, is a more exciting extended jam with a Woodstock vibe. Its line "Show me the way and I'll follow you today" hints at the spirituality that permeates much of the album. The quartet of "Shining Light" (an homage to Roy Orbison?), "The Believer, Spirit Road" (a sonic kin to "Hey, Hey, My, My)" and "The Way" (featuring a children's chorus) might have you believe Young has truly conquered all his demons.
But those thoughts are dashed with the hilarious rocker "Dirty Old Man:" `I'm gonna get fired for drinkin' on the job/Got caught with the boss' wife in the parking lot." A true chameleon, indeed.
Pod Picks: "Beautiful Bluebird," "Shining Light," "No Hidden Path."
-Michael Hamersly
CARRIE UNDERWOOD "Carnival Ride" (Arista Nashville) 1 /2 stars
I'd feel bad for Carrie Underwood if she weren't living so well off her post-"American Idol" success. She clearly has credible instincts in choosing material - or her handlers do - as evidenced by a cover of one of the best country songs of the past 30 years, the Randy Travis classic "I Told You So," on her sophomore album.
Given all she has at her disposal, Underwood squanders the goods in spectacular fashion. The mainstream "Carnival Ride," though a stronger, more country-oriented batch of songs than those found on her sextuple-platinum debut, "Some Hearts," is still near unlistenable owing to Underwood's bombastic vocals and the one-size-fits-all production.
Instead of allowing the melody and lyrics to carry her toward the emotions she seeks to convey, Underwood uses volume to stand in for them. In this range her colorless voice turns harsh, suggesting there is no depth to Underwood as an interpreter (not that the cliched material is particularly deep), and it makes her Travis cover a travesty. The overblown arrangements lead to listener fatigue as one sound-alike performance blends into another.
But for the final track, "Wheel of the World," something inspiring and unexpected happens. Underwood finds welcome restraint, and properly sings her most lovely tune to date. There may be hope for her yet.
Pod Pick: "Wheel of the World."
-Howard Cohen
BACKSTREET BOYS "Unbreakable" (Jive) 1 star
Fifteen years after their formation, you can't call them boys anymore - but they're back.
The Backstreet Boys, after a three-year hiatus and minus one member, return with a sixth studio album, "Unbreakable," a predictable collection of choreography-friendly upbeat numbers and achy-breaky ballads targeting tween girls too young to have heard all the lines.
Almost every lyric seems to be taken from The Big Book of Songwriting Cliches, with the whiny "Inconsolable's" "I don't wanna waste another day," "Something That I Already Know's" "I don't wanna wait another minute," and "I can't let go," from both "Helpless When She Smiles" and "Trouble Is."
But it turns out you CAN let go, and you'll want to after hearing "You Can Let Go's" "Baby, baby, let me hold you tight/I'll make it all right."
None of the songs matches the melodies of their monster hits "As Long as You Love Me," "Show Me the Meaning of Being Lonely" and, of course, "I Want It That Way." Every track is a transparently calculated effort to create scream-inducing moments in concert.
BSB's voices are strong and clear, their harmonies tight. But slick production, plastic melodrama and a total lack of surprises make "Unbreakable" an apt title for this boy-band machine.
And it will sell millions, because the little girls still want it that way.
Pod pick: "Unsuspecting Sunday Afternoon."

I mentioned in my Pillsbury fast dinner ideas post on Friday that I run a golf course snack stand. Well, last week was unseasonably hot. We got some nice, just getting yellow bananas, on Tuesday. By Wednesday morning they were already turning brown from the heat! The kitchen was reading over 100 degrees. Yep, it was hot. Funny though how tropical fruit can hate heat. I can't stand to just throw food away, so I bagged all of the bananas up to bring home with me. It was at least three bunches, but I already had other bananas at home that I had frozen to use for cooking. I started thinking about what to do with ripe bananas. I figured if I put more in the freezer Jason would think that I needed serious help! I'm sure I'm not the only one who doesn't always know what to do with ripe bananas, so I've compiled a ton of different banana recipes that you can use for ripe bananas.
Most of us think about making banana bread when we have a lot of ripe bananas sitting around. There are a lot of different banana bread recipes though, so you really can take your pick of what ones sound best to you (or what ones are easiest to make). Here are a few different bread recipes…
Egg Free Banana Bread (Rock-A-Bye Parents) – This is Nick's go to lunch. You can replace the applesauce with two eggs if you don't want to make it egg free.
Banana Bread (Nut Free) (Southern Kissed)
Banana Bread with Walnuts (Life with Lisa)
Low Fat Banana Bread (Kiddies Corner Deals)
After bread we often think of using ripe bananas to make muffins. I have found that there are a lot of banana muffin recipes out there. Here are some favorites…
Banana Zucchini Spice Muffins (Play 2 Learn With Sarah)
Oatmeal Banana Muffins (Contest Corner)
Orange Banana Muffins (Diaries of a Domestic Goddess)
Banana Carrot Muffins (Project Procrastinot)
Here are two recipes for Chocolate Chip Banana Muffins. I decided to include both since the recipes are quite different.
Chocolate Chip Banana Muffins (Play 2 Learn With Sarah)
Chocolate Chip Banana Muffins (Creative K Kids)
I must say that cake was far from the first thing I thought of when I was trying to decide what to use my bananas for, but I actually found quite a few cake recipes…
Banana Cream Pie Ice Box Cake (Food Family Finds)
Banana Sheet Cake (Food Family Finds)
Banana Cream Pie Cake Push Pops (Food Family Finds)
Baby Banana Cakes with Vanilla Caramel Glaze (Mom Foodie)
Double Chocolate Banana Split Cake (Mom Foodie)
There are other ways to bake with bananas for breakfast that don't involve a type of bread…
Paleo Pancakes (OhRheally.com)
Peanut Butter and Banana Waffle Bites (Food Family Finds)
Of course smoothies are wildly popular, and ripe bananas are perfect for them…
Very Berry Banana Smoothie (Cookies & Clogs)
Banana Spic Smoothie (Life with Lisa)
There are so many recipes that you can make with ripe bananas, and many are ones you might never think of. Here are a few of my favorite different ones…
Fake Chocolate-Peanut Butter-Banana Ice Cream (From the Burbs to the Boonies)
Strawberry-Banana Nutella Cookies (Food Family Finds)
Strawberry-Banana Fruit Leather (Food Family Finds)
Biscoff Banana Swirl Sweet Rolls (Mom Foodie)
Grandma's Banana Jam (Mom Foodie)

Do you remember when you first learned to play pickleball and you had to learn to respect the double bounce rule? A key understanding is that the ball must first bounce on the receiver's side before it is returned and then it also must bounce before the serving team can hit it and then almost anything goes. Did you ever forget and hit the ball before it bounced? I bet most people did at some time or another.
Well, there is more to bouncing than you probably thought. Mark Renneson of Third Shot Sports (Pickleball) uses the video below to highlight the importance of moving almost constantly during each point. It prevents inertia from settling in and keeps your body ready to make movements in a required direction. As Mark clearly points out, many of these are small adjustment moves (BOUNCES), but they help maintain focus and allow for quick adjustments to the ball.
At least you have a better opportunity to win!

Who would you trust to give you the right advice on wind farms and health?
The Australian Medical Association have just assessed the evidence and they've given wind farms a clean bill of health.
Not only do they find that wind farms do not cause health problems but they explicitly point out that misinformation and 'health scares' about wind farms may increase anxiety and community division - and 'over-rigourous regulation' by state governments.
Surely we must be getting close to the point where we call time on the idea that wind farms are connected with ill-health.
Here's the statement in full:
AMA Position Statement
Australian Medical Association Limited ABN 37 008 426 793 1
Wind Farms and Health
Wind turbine technology is considered a comparatively inexpensive and effective means of energy production. Wind turbines generate sound, including infrasound, which is very low frequency noise that is generally inaudible to the human ear. Infrasound is ubiquitous in the environment, emanating from natural sources (e.g. wind, rivers) and from artificial sources including road traffic, ventilation systems, aircraft and other machinery. All modern wind turbines in Australia are designed to be upwind of local populations, with the blade in front. These upwind turbines generate much lower levels of infrasound and low frequency sound.
Infrasound levels in the vicinity of wind farms have been measured and compared to a number of urban and rural environments away from wind farms. The results of these measurements have shown that in rural residences both near to and far away from wind turbines, both indoor and outdoor infrasound levels are well below the perception threshold, and no greater than that experienced in other rural and urban environments.
AMA Position
- The available Australian and international evidence does not support the view that the infrasound or low frequency sound generated by wind farms, as they are currently regulated in Australia, causes adverse health effects on populations residing in their vicinity. The infrasound and low frequency sound generated by modern wind farms in Australia is well below the level where known health effects occur, and there is no accepted physiological mechanism where sub-audible infrasound could cause health effects.
- Individuals residing in the vicinity of wind farms who do experience adverse health or well-being, may do so as a consequence of their heightened anxiety or negative perceptions regarding wind farm developments in their area. Individuals who experience heightened anxiety or diminished health and well-being in the context of local wind farms should seek medical advice.
- The reporting of 'health scares' and misinformation regarding wind farm developments may contribute to heightened anxiety and community division, and over-rigorous regulation of these developments by state governments.
- The regulation of wind farm developments should be guided entirely by the evidence regarding their impacts and benefits. Such regulation should ensure that structured and extensive local community consultation and engagement is undertaken at the outset of planning, in order to minimise misinformation, anxiety and community division.
- Electricity generation by wind turbines does not involve production of greenhouse gases, other pollutant emissions or waste, all of which can have significant direct and indirect health effects.
- Reproduction and distribution of AMA position statements is permitted provided the AMA is acknowledged and that theposition statement is faithfully reproduced noting the year at the top of the document.

February 16th, 2010
Ed Wilson – President and CEO- 10,000 Friends of Pennsylvania
"We need statewide reform, and we need it now." So wrote Pittsburgh city councilman Bill Peduto in a letter he distributed last month to officials in every other city of the state. "The future of your city will be contingent on tax reform, pension reform, and health care reform. … [W]e need to be unified to create a new agenda for older communities throughout Pennsylvania."
Four central Pennsylvania mayors struck a similar chord when they addressed the House Majority Policy Committee in York on January 14. York's Kim Bracey, Reading's Thomas McMahon, Lancaster's Rick Gray and Harrisburg's Linda Thomson all entreated legislators to pass the reforms cities need to get their fiscal affairs in order.
These officials have good reason to sound an alarm. Last fall Reading became the latest city to enter Pennsylvania's Act 47 program for fiscally distressed municipalities. Many others are teetering on the edge of crisis and risk following in Reading's footsteps. The recession is contributing to the problem, of course, but the fiscal difficulties of cities have been mounting for years.
One of the most important reasons for municipal fiscal distress is the state-imposed reliance on property taxes. Cities throughout the commonwealth are caught in a squeeze between steeply rising costs (due mainly to dramatic increases in pension and health insurance payments) and static property tax revenues. Income from property taxes is limited by the many tax exempt properties in cities, and by the fact that cities must compete politically with school districts for millage increases. In any case, further millage increases would be counterproductive, since most cities have already raised their rates far above those of neighboring municipalities, and further hikes would serve only to discourage homeownership and revitalization.
Some argue that cities, like everyone else in this ailing economy, simply need to do more with less. But the reality is that most cities already have cut to the bone. To make ends meet, many have resorted to selling off assets or taking out loans. Such stop-gaps can help them get through a few lean years, but they can't be sustained.
The fact is that cities need help from the state – not bailouts, but meaningful reforms that will free their hands to raise revenues in different ways. One promising proposal is HB 1858, which would allow counties to levy a 1% sales tax that would be shared with municipalities and used to offset property taxes. This would allow municipalities to shift the tax burden away from property taxes to another revenue source that is more likely to keep pace with rising costs. So far, however, the legislature's response to HB 1858 and similar measures to help cities has been tepid, at best.
What will it take to convince lawmakers to get serious about the fiscal problems of cities? Maybe Bill Peduto has the right idea in calling on cities across the state to unite in a concerted campaign for state-level reform. To paraphrase one of Pennsylvania's most famous reformers, our cities must all hang together or… Well, you know the rest.

So much for sleeping
I spoke too soon. At the Tukwila stop, a woman and her three or four year old son boarded and sat right in front of me. Over the next three hours I learned a few things: everything about trains excited this child; he had not yet learned the concept of "inside voice", no matter how many times his mom asked him to use it (about 17 times); and it is possible for a child to maintain, for three hours, a level of excitement and wonder that would cause most people's hearts to stop. While seeing the world through a child's eyes is a wonderful thing, I would have instead preferred to see the insides of my eyelids for those three hours. Judging by the annoyed looks on the faces of several fellow passengers, I wasn't alone. Ah well, note to self: bring earplugs next time.

Until recently I wasn't really a huge sunglass type of person. If I recall correctly it may have been sometime early last summer or late spring, I was shopping in the mall with my girlfriend (Quite the experience. I know you guys can feel me…) and she threw a pair of sunglasses on my face to see how they looked.
I felt like the mirror wouldn't stop looking at me. Lol… I was hooked. I felt like a character out of a movie James Bond or a star like P. Diddy. Let's face it, people mostly wear sunglasses just to look cool. The protection from the sun is just an added benefit.
With the summer quickly approaching, I've decided to invest in a good pair of sunglasses that will hopefully last for a while. There is nothing wrong with wanting to be fashionable, right? Admittedly, I don't know much about sunglasses but I did a little research and found out that there are a few things to consider:
You'll want to find a pair that is the same width as the widest part of your face.
Frame Shape
Consider your face shape before you buy sunglasses; frames that are the opposite shape as your face will look best.
Eye Protection
If protection from the sun is important to you, make sure that you choose a pair that has 95 to 99 percent UVB protection and at least 60 percent UVA protection.
Leave your comments and let us know what kind of cool sunglasses you got. Like Us on Facebook

Pete's Saloon & Restaurant in Elmsford: A Local Food and Live Music Destination Since 1977
by Morey Storck
Peter Riekstins grew up in Mount Vernon and Pelham. His interest in music led him to master the bass guitar, and as a gifted guitarist, played his first club gig at age 16. Throughout his college years, while studying pre-dentistry, he joined a popular band and played the tri-state area, which helped defray his college costs. At 19, Pete met his wife, Denise, while backing up the Belmonts on a live radio show. Then came the opportunity he never thought would happen.
In the back of his mind, Pete always harbored the idea of owning a "saloon." One became available in Elmsford and he took the chance. It was supposed to be just a short-term money-maker until he became a dentist, but that didn't happen. He never left. Today, Pete's Saloon & Restaurant is celebrating its 40th year in business.
"A beer and a shot for a buck!" Riekstins laughed, "and sometimes a chicken plate for a quarter, or a couple of hard-boiled eggs." Those days are long gone, he explained, and so too, was that clientele, mainly WWII vets in their 50's and over. Changes were made. Interior and exterior renovations got underway, a real kitchen was installed, and professional staff was hired. And, to accommodate their changing customers, a broadened selection of wines and liquors was made available, as well as a family-affordable menu of burgers, steaks, chops and fresh seafood.
The lunch and dinner traffic is a mixture of white collar workers from the surrounding office buildings and blue collar workers from the many service providers in the area. Bar regulars become familiar faces, as do families for dinner. In addition, many hotel travelers find their way to Pete's as a respite from a lonely hotel room and to find a warm and welcoming hometown ambience and friendly conversation.
Early on, Riekstins began booking live bands as entertainment two or three nights a week. "I'm not on the road any more, but I still love music and I hate a quiet bar. Sometimes, I'm even invited to sit in and jam." After talking to Riekstins for a few minutes, you begin to understand that he loves the band sound and being around working musicians and talking to them about their gigs in the area. He uses a professional agency and books bands that play rock, jazz, blues ("that's for my soul") and pop. Special event lighting and a top-of-the-line sound system have been installed.
People send in tapes and videos all the time, in part driven by social media. Patrons will sometimes suggest a group that they had heard somewhere else. Agents may try to book one or two dates for a new band that's touring and has a few open nights. But, Riekstins always insists on professionals with a history of work and studio musicians by reputation.
Most importantly, they must be able to read the room! There's no point in playing to a cold audience. Recent releases, air-time, and social media like YouTube are also useful indications of where the band has been and where it may be going. And, Riekstins always tries to book locally: Westchester, Rockland, and northern Jersey. "If they have a following, a good reputation, and friends, its good to have Pete's Saloon within easy travel distance."
Gil Parris Band: Gil is a graduate of Ardsley High School, and is a good example of Pete's quality insistence. He is an American Grammy-nominated rock, blues, jazz and pop guitarist, and has released six solo albums and played collaboratively with over 20 other groups and artists. Other popular bands performing at Pete's (no specific order) are Sugarush, Sue and the Fun Goules, Lords of Hawthorne, Nightshift, and Headfirst.

Sept 12 2012..I died in a Mans mind..RIP Sexy Sugar Babyz
Hello my Faithful and dear readers,
I did not expect to be passing away in someones mind tonight. Yet alas, I did just that. I had been emailing him since May/June 2012 and I have a folder where ALL 184 emails are saved from him. I thought he was a real nice person..funny, smart, cool to chat with. He is the man of the Initial name here..(the one who lives in fear of being discovered on my blog and having people know the Initial is him..Gasp..the horror...the one simple initial could defeat and damage his whole world. How awful to count me among his friends..sigh)
Tonight I saw him on Y msg and simply IM-ed him asking him how angry was he with me..He claimed to not know what I was talking about. He told me he thought I was the one angry with him. Turns out he told me he is all alone in the world and alas, that is a lie..He has a quite lovely girlfriend who does not know a single thing about me. A good friend told me when we were discussing the Prince of Pain.. (the tombstone could rep his feelings for me too I suppose)..that initial has a "live in girlfriend"..mmmm, what about all those emails asking me for things..massage, to be a slave..to meet right now..(THO he refused to speak on the phone..One time he called here as he wanted me to help him through a personal session with a part of his anatomy and moan for him.) I was never sure how I was supposed to set up a meeting when I was not allowed to call him. He never once told me about the GF..all I heard was how lonely he was and no sex for yrs.
I told him how it hurt to be lied to after the Prince of Pain did it for 6 yrs..He denied lying to me. Told me no emails or FB msgs reached him. (Yeah, they did) Told me he owed me nothing though I had been completely honest with him from the beginning. Told me he didn't like it that I believed other peoples lies over him. I NEVER lie so this was quite a blow to me..and I merely told Initial that I was hurt ..not angry or mad..HURT that a friend told me the truth he seemed to be unable or unwilling to do.
His last words were..."Unless you send me those photos of you (racy) you are dead in my mind to me." I said "Ok got it.done" and ended the IM. Sooo unless my darlings I send a man and his GF too I guess, photos of me, I am dead to him. I told a darling friend of mine/role model to me and between her brilliant mind and my Sugar Daddy's, they created this lovely image.
I died tonight in some mans mind..RIP racy photos of me that were never sent and now never will be..LOL.
Initial I really liked you..thought we were becoming very good friends. I even said that right now I have 3/4 male friends I truly trust and named you (OH the horror, I actually said your name) as one of them. I hope you send flowers to my tombstone..this morning, I died in your mind.

OUR Princess Diana..forever missed
I am late in writing this as I was very sick and struggling still to find the right words. Has it truly been 15 yrs since we lost Princess Diana ? How is that even possible ? Even thinking about her and then the loss feels like someone is punching me right in my heart. I have long admired Diana and all she stood for. The causes she represented long before anyone else choose to do so. Aids, mines..etc..She stood up first when others shied away.
I remember her wedding..the birth of the kids..the divorce and how she came out of it all a stronger woman. I was happy for her and proud of her.
So much love in her heart for others and the eternal search for love for herself. Did she find it at the end of her young life ? No idea..but I for one am happy she was at peace in Paris and on vacation with Dodi. He made her laugh and what woman doesn't love a man who can make them laugh and feel secure ? I know I do. (Sugar Daddy is excellent at making me feel secure and laughing all the time)
Then the fateful night in Paris..The drive to escape the Paparazzi..that forever dammed tunnel..I was coming home and up the stairs of my building. Mom opened the front door.."Have you heard ?" she asked me. I'd been listening to Frank Sinatra on the car radio so thought perhaps we lost him.."Frank ?" I asked as we walked inside.
"NO, Diana." I put my purse down..God NO..Not her..It must be some other Diana.."Dodi is dead" Mom quietly said. That is when I knew it was not some other Diana..it was OUR Diana.
"Mom, I can't process this..I will think about Dodi later" I looked at the TV..the ambulance in the tunnel..the long wait to move her to hospital.I felt as if I'd been punched..and I can still feel the hurt. I sat there...waited and waited and the news..the death of someone I cared about..looked up to and adored. OUR Peoples Princess , Diana was gone. "The boys" I whispered.."Oh god the kids". Luckily they were not in the car with Diana, Dodi, Henri Paul the driver and the bodyguard. Funny thing I can see all of them in the car, at the hotel steps waiting for the car and for the life of me can not recall the bodyguards name..(yeah some writer and researcher me.. I should have looked it up first before starting this..)
To this day when I think of her..It is with pride of what she accomplished..what she gave to the world in 2 amazing sons..Prince William and Prince Harry..I still feel the loss and always will. I remember hearing Diana is dead..going to the bathroom and just crying in agony..How can the world be so cruel ? I know men and women see her loss differently..Men shrug when we talk of Diana in glowing terms..Yet I will always remember where I was when we lost her..and how it felt to hear the news.
I can see her in my minds eye at the wedding of her son William..a true love match with his beloved Kate. How happy she would have been and all eyes on her until Kate walked in , in that "dress". How she would have laughed, loved and been happy..
God Rest your Soul Diana .. Dodi, I am sorry for your loss . Your family aches for you too, and always will. Thank you for being a part of our world even though it was way to short a time.
I will miss you..and I know my Mom and My friends who are in Heaven before me, told you I said Hello when you all passed each other "Up there".

This page serves to provide links to other webpages containing information useful to discovering your own ancestry and history. Because there are so many useful websites, I have separate pages for Italian Records. I have sorted the links by category below.
Below is a list of links for what I consider the basics of Italian genealogy. They include "how to" informational sites, Italian based social groups such as The Sons Of Italy and other miscellaneous sites.
Many people such as myself have created websites to share their transcriptions for Italian records of their ancestral home towns. I am currently working on a separate webpage for those sites. Below are links to the Family Search Italian Records and official Italian based websites that contain Italian records.
If you are not familiar with Italian first names they often are difficult to read on documents. Some of the links below can assist you to properly transcribe some of those first names. Also linked below are sites with surname information.
This section contains links to sites or Facebook pages or groups that exist to help people pursue their Italian genealogy. Facebook has so many pages and groups I cannot possibly list them all here. For more local groups and pages do a search within Facebook for your ancestral home town, province and region.

Memorial Day was first enacted to honor soldiers following the American Civil War and after World War I it was expanded to honor Americans who have died in all wars. UConn established its own permanent memorial in November 2009 with a monument erected west of the flagpoles, between Beach Hall and the CLAS Building.
In addtion to the physical memorial, the Alumni Association mantains the Roll of Honor at the Alumni Center
and online at http://www.uconnalumni.com/roll-of-honor/the-roll.html. If you have the opportunity, I would encourage all who are on campus over the Memorial Day weekend to include a visit to these memorials to honor the UConn alums who have made the ultimate sacrifice.

Paso Doble Lessons Barrie
The Bold and Dramatic Paso Doble
The origin of Paso Doble dates back to a French military march called Paso Redoble. This Latin American dance is modeled after the Spanish and Portuguese bullfight. The leader plays the role of the matador, and the follower plays the part of the matador's cape, but can also represent the shadow of the matador, as well as the bull or a flamenco dancer. Because this dance requires choreography to create a proper presentation of the dance, it is mainly danced competitively, and rarely as a social dance.
The Paso Doble has a stage-like appearance, suitable mainly for presentation or competition. It requires a high level of character and styling, and uses many advanced dance positions and patterns. The music of Paso Doble is quite fast, and is written in 2/4 time. The dance is counted as 1.2, 3.4, 5.6, 7.8.
Popular Paso Doble Music
Guitarra Española – Los Melódicos Espana – Cani Prandi Matador Paso – Andy Fortuna
Related Dances
Patterns and dance positions of the Samba somewhat resemble the Paso Doble. These are two of the fastest Latin dances.
Tango is a dramatic dance that is more suitable to social dancing than Paso Doble, and is easier to learn.
Rumba styling and partnership are useful in all Latin dances. This dance is full of passion and romance.

Term 4 Week 1
Welcome back to another busy term.
Roeland Weisfelt's contract concludes at the end of this year. He has been a welcome addition to the staff and set the foundation for our new Business Manager to take over in 2017 – Ms Marion Baxter. We will of course miss Roeland, but thank him very much for his contribution to the College, particularly in setting up this new role in our ever expanding campus.
Yr 10 Parent Information Night regarding senior schooling and subject choices is planned for Term 4 Tuesday 11th October 6pm – 7.30pm.

The College Play is on Friday evening 21st October and Saturday 22nd October – matinee and evening performances. Please book on-line to see a fabulous production – Man the Balloon. We appreciate your support for the hard work put in by our students and staff.
Man the Balloon
A small town is sent into turmoil when the local balloon man declares the outbreak of an alarming trend: citizens are spontaneously bursting! Elliot, a hapless balloon enthusiast, struggles to uncover the cause of the random implosions and convince his apathetic neighbours that they need help before they all disappear into thin air. Man the Balloon is a satirical and absurd parable of an insecure, small-minded society unwittingly bent on self-destruction.
Tamborine Mountain College's 2016 Drama Excellence Production, Man the Balloon is fast approaching.
Tickets are $15 for concession and $20 for adults – this includes hors d'oeuvres at interval. A selection of soft drinks and alcoholic beverages will be available before the performances and at interval.

Lil Wayne Previews the U.S. Open
"I simply adore Maria Sharapova."
Old friend Lil Wayne has sent another amazing missive from Rikers, and this time it comes in the form of a handwritten analysis of the U.S. Open for Sports Illustrated. Is it more endearing that Weezy has no problem writing the words "I simply adore Maria Sharapova" or that he's apparently used a ruler to keep his lines straight?

disclaimer: I received items from Shoplet to review before writing this post. I was not compensated nor was required to write a positive review for the following items. All opinions are 100% my own and may differ from yours.
shoplet has made my life so easy since I have grown to know them. They are constantly sending me something to try that is going to either help provide me comfort or organization in my office- both of these things are very important to me as a blogger. Shoplet carries items such as;
You will find high quality items at affordable prices. Everything from markers to safes!
personalize your own cup, shirt or even a backpack! Get the name of your business or group out there!
Need a new laminator? Office chair or products by Rubbermaid? Shoplet carries it!
Shoplet not only just has office supplies to help you in your home or business office, they also have items to help you look good and feel your best in the office. For example the ladies and men's pique polos and jerseys.
This past month I was sent products from Smead
I really loved the Hanging File Folders I received! These folders had built in tabs for easy labeling, that is very important for me. I always "attempt" to keep things organized and these helped me on my way to do just that. They are extra durable and with the way I sometimes throw things around, (don't tell my husband I admitted to doing that) the durability was a plus! These folders are sold in packs of 20. I also loved the fact that I could really stuff them full!
I also found the Expanding Pocket folders by Smead very useful. I found these perfect for storing things such as bank statements. I know I need to get with the times and go paperless – but until that time I am glad there is a product such as this available. It also has perfect grips which results in less papercuts.
Lastly but not "leastly" I was sent File Folders from Smead. What is so special about these? How about 90% larger label area then the normal file folders. That right there had me at hello! Anyone that knows me personally knows I write BIG. I have always done that and although I try and write smaller, my words are always huge taking up a sheet of paper for a simple letter. With these tabs I can stay true to my writing habits and it really makes folders easier to locate because of this. Another thing I love about these folders. 50 of them cost only $10.16 per box (when you buy a single box)…. When buying in bulk you can get them as low as $8.87 a box.
Please be sure and check out all the Smead products that Shoplet.com has to offer!

Will Holiday Hygiene Ratings Affect Your Winter Destination?
Perhaps foreign cuisine is part of the appeal for a trip overseas this winter, if not just to escape the UK weather, but have you done your homework on the hygiene ratings of your desired destination?
Earlier in summer 2015, Slater and Gordon travel solicitors commissioned research into holiday illnesses with a study of 2,000 people, following an increase in holiday illness compensation claims. The results revealed 40 per cent of people said that hygiene concerns would affect where they decided to go on holiday. The three holiday destinations with the most cases of holiday illness are Spain, Turkey and Greece.
When it comes to food poisoning and holiday illness overseas, the cost of medical expenses is something you can plan for, so that, in the event a bug ruins your plans, you have peace of mind that you're covered financially.
Slater and Gordon personal injury solicitor, Rebecca Gilmore, recently blogged on the subject of quick break to the European Christmas markets, in which she advised on the importance of travel insurance no matter the length of stay or activities in mind.
Indeed, travel insurance should be on your list of priorities before taking off this winter, but many people don't think they'll need it. Travel insurance doesn't just cover the kind of extremes you may imagine of a summer adventure holiday, but also trips and slips and food poisoning on holiday.
But is it as simple as purchasing travel insurance to ensure you're covered in the unfortunate event you suffer food poisoning overseas? To an extent, yes.
Whereas travel insurance can cover the cost of any medical expenses incurred whilst abroad, most policies won't compensate you for time off work once you're home. This is where legal advice from travel litigation lawyers is necessary when it comes to making a compensation claim.
If you're unsure how a holiday food poisoning compensation claim works, see our previous blog here.
Slater and Gordon Lawyer specialise in travel litigation. If you or your holiday party suffer an accident abroad, our No Win, No Fee Solicitors can help you with your claim for compensation.

Testocyp belongs to the class of anabolic steroids, which is used extensively by athletes and bodybuilders for increasing their muscle mass and cut out the fat content. Testocyp also increases the bone density muscle mass in adults. It is also popularly used for the testicular failure in men. Apart from using Testocyp as a bodybuilding steroid, it is also used for muscle wasting in AIDS.
Testocyp contains Testosterone Cypionate as the main active constituent. It exhibits its effect by increasing the naturally occurring androgen, i.e. testosterone by binding to the androgenic receptors. This action improves the androgenic activity, encourages the muscle growth, and enhances bone density. Testocyp also improves the productivity and number of RBC.
The recommended dose of Testocyp is 250mg in 1ml available in parenteral dosage form. Take Testocyp in every three to four weeks via the intramuscular route. For enhancing, the performance one injection per week is given; however, in certain cases, two smaller yet equal sized injections prove to be more efficient.
The commonly observed adverse effects of Testocyp are allergic reactions such as hives, rashes, itching, and difficulty in breathing, acne, edema and virilization.

The City: Fashion and Fun!!!Posted: May 4, 2010 Filed under: Fashion, Inspiration, Looks Im Loving, Olivia Palermo, Sex and The City 2, The Hills, TV, Whitney Port 7 Comments
"Give me them bright lights long nights!!! Party till the sun is Rising"…
When Whitney Port first decided to leave The Hills it didn't phase me much. I mean we never got to see her personal side on the show, it was always at dinner or at work for Whit so I really didn't think I'd miss her much. It wasn't until the following season I felt the brunt of missing Whitney on the show. She was always the focused one, goal oriented and smart and quiet the most decent side kick Lauren Conrad ever had (well, at least on the show). As much as I missed Whitney on The Hills I wasnt to fond of the whole idea of "The City". What could the Whitney we all knew from "The Hills" bring to the screen for a highly rated show? Neitherless I really got into the first season and started liking the show. (Note to self: Add one more show to my "To Watch" list). Now we're on season 3 and avid followers like myself must admit that we cant get enough of The City clan. Okay maybe I'm a little over Olivia shady ways, but her sense of style wins over everything. Finally theres a reality show on tv that I can relate to. An inside scoop on the fashion industry…stuff you can't learn in school but through experience is on a tv screen. Ok… ok… Blah Blah Blah! Did you see the season premier last week? "The fashions" were so exciting… Whitney's style has elevated since her tv debut, I couldnt help but gush over every sense. And Olivia's style is just impeccable.
Olivia Palermo (Elle Accessories Editor)
I've created this set for anyone trying to incoperate Olivia and Whitney's style to their daily wardrobe. Hope this serves as inspiration for you to look your best! Whitney is best known for her comfortable pastel staples and Olivia is more glam.

Lauren Conrad for KohlsPosted: September 26, 2009 Filed under: Fashion, Kholes, Lauren Conrad, The Hills Leave a comment
Kohls department store and LC Lauren Conrad collaborated earlier this year on a clothing line which is chic-ly affordable.
One thing I realised while I looked at the garments for the first time was that every piece reflected her personal style. If you're a supporter (hate the word FAN) of LC then you should know that she's always simple, really cute and never over done.
Lauren Conrad holds a special place in my heart…Like really! She's so much different from all other reality stars even her mates from The Hills. She's so unique, smart and ambiguous.
Here are a few garments from the collection…
The Hills Episode 6Posted: May 5, 2009 Filed under: The Hills Leave a comment
BoyFriend drama, I know what Lauren is thinking…They're all hooking up with my ex's.
Stacey the bartender is kinda bold dont you think?
I need to shut up now…watch the epsiode
New Episode of The HillsPosted: April 28, 2009 Filed under: The Hills Leave a comment
I dont get why Brody went out with Lauren, kissed Whitney now hooked up with Audrina. Lo and Steph is next. LOL J/k…
Interesting epsiode, I think Lauren felt something. After all she kissed all 3 guys on the trip. Love the Hills
Ohhh, Before I forget whats up with Spencer pressing that dude about being a virgin. He's such a douche. I swear he looks like a wild cat!
Lauren Conrad Collection HaultPosted: March 23, 2009 Filed under: Lauren Conrad, The Hills Leave a comment
ccording to the New York Post :
LAUREN Conrad's clothing line is on hiatus until further notice. Los Angeles sources say the MTV reality starlet, who's wrapping up her last season on "The Hills," won't be producing any more seasons of her Lauren Conrad Collection, which launched in fall 2007. Some showrooms got a message from her camp saying, "In light of the economic climate, Lauren has decided to completely rethink her line." As a result, shipment of the last spring and summer delivery has been canceled, the memo said. Page Six previously reported that the line wasn't moving in stores like Kitson and Bloomingdale's. "Lauren is going to revamp her line and design with more high-end fabrics . . . things she couldn't do the first time around," a source close to Conrad said. Her rep told us, "With everything going on in the economy and in her life, she wants to rework her line and offerings. She will make announcements soon."
So many nasty reviews and comments about this subject. Lauren Conrad has been the star of two reality shows Laguna Beach and then came the spin off "The Hills". Ever since she has started her own self titled collection you've seen her on almost ever red carpet and industry party there is. Young people all over the globe "like myself" have been tuning in every season to watch Lauren and co live their lives. She started her internship at Teen Vogue where she met Whitney Port star of the Hills spin off "The City". She's one of many with a dream…a dream to build an empire and with the help of the Hills she has done that much. So why are people mad at her…for cancelling her show? who in their right state of mind would want to have camera's following them for their entire life? No one…Although I'm a bit sad that the Hills is going on its final season…I understand where Lauren's coming from, the same way I understand how she used the reality show for a career boost! So what?? Look at Runs Daughter? Daddy's Girls and their pastry line? ok… now what about Tory Burch? Kool…I figured that much so stop pointing fingers….

GM firms face millions lawsuit
25 October 1999
GM firms face £millions lawsuit
LAW firms in the US and UK are preparing class action suits for hundreds of millions of pounds against companies producing genetically modified (GM) seeds and crops.
The Independent reports that US law firms met with the UK solicitors Mishcon de Reya to discuss the action.
Targets will include Monsanto, DuPont, AstraZeneca, Novartis and AgrEvo.
The first actions in the US courts will involve allegations of
anti-competitive behaviour by the companies.
They will also claim collusive action by the companies to gain joint control over food production.
A further issue to be raised is whether there has been a concerted effort to force the commercialisation of GM foods at a time when the safety of the foods was in doubt.

The United Nations Security Council highlighted some of the new challenges of defeating terrorism from the perspective of leaders on the front lines at its 7071st meeting on Nov. 27.
Three U.N. Security Council Committees are at the forefront of the fight against terrorism - the Counter-Terrorism Committee, the Committee concerning resolutions 1267 and 1989 pertaining to Al-Qaida and the 1540 Committee against the proliferation of nuclear weapons and weapons of mass destruction.
During the meeting, Gary Quinlan made a joint statement for all three Committees, highlighting current initiatives in place to combat terrorism, which include the Financial Action Task Force against the funding of terrorism and nuclear proliferation and the Counter-Terrorism Implementation Task Force against money laundering, arms proliferation and terrorism funding.
Quinlan said there has been a recent shift in the fight against terrorism; Al-Qaida is no longer the primary terrorist organization. There are now a range of smaller terrorist groups on the rise, which poses a new challenge to monitor and combat global terrorism and nuclear proliferation.
Quinlan suggested devising a plan that tackles emerging terrorist groups per region. The Committee has invited representatives from the Sahel and Maghred regions to assist in the creation of a new counter-terrorism strategy, which may include new sanctions, educational campaigns on halting terrorist funding and identifying false non-profit organizations which fund terrorist activities.
