Back From the Doctor
Had my check-up today- the doc didn't really do anything except listen to the heartbeat, weigh me, and ask how I'm feeling. I did get him to fill out the testing accomodations paperwork for the Bar Exam. We'll see how that goes. Right now I'm signed up to be a regular tester at the site in Ontario- which is about 2 hours away from the hospital in traffic. I had the doctor fill out a form requesting that I be closer to him and the hospital, since I'll be 37 weeks when I take the exam! I hope the Bar Committee agrees to let me take the test closer- and hopefully, I can get a few more bathroom breaks, too!

Starting with a piece of 2 1/2 inch wide by 3/4 inch thick wood, I sawed out a basic triangle and a trunk. Then the whittlin' began, just hackin' away until a pine tree appeared. A rasp and file helped too. The saw was also used to trim out some outer branches. And once the woodworking was done, paint was applied. A couple different greens for shading and a couple browns too. Finally, a bit of white paint was added for a touch of snow.
A small amount of work for a decorative little item, standing at 3 1/2 inches tall. And as a bonus, the organic nature of the subject-matter makes mistakes of little concern.

You ever just have one of those days where you just feel everything is going to go right and then everything goes worng? Well...this is my venting session so I'll warn you now. But it does have a good ending.
Today was the start of my PCT training and what I thought was going to be a busy schedule...is going to prove to be overwhelming. I don't want to count my eggs before they hatch....but when you go into the class and the first person they introduce you to is the psychotherapist....then you know you are in trouble. First words were "You want to get to know this lady"...holy cow.
So we go through 3 1/2 hours of all the information and we go to the bookstore to get our books and uniforms that were ordered...2 MONTHS AGO....and they are not in. I have to have 5 chapters read by Monday morning, but yet, they can not have the material??? I just don't get it!!! They knew sevearl months ago we would need textbooks by today...then why don't we have them. I think this is such a problem with the school. But yet, no matter what you do, who you complain to, you can't get anyone to listen. I spent most of my day seeing of I could locate the text book online somewhere to I could try to get it overnighted to us but yet...no luck. This is not a good way for me to start off the semester. Or any of the 50 students in class.
So then I get home to pick up the kids and find out that Ian was accused of being a liar by one of the teachers at school. Not only did she accuse him, she boldly told me that he did this and has no proof. Other than the other student is a "model" student and couldn't possibly ever do anything wrong. It was a very unprofessional conversation as she walked away from me before we were finished. It's not that Ian couldn't make up a story...Lord knows he's a 10 year old boy...but to say that the other student couldn't make up a story too is just obsurd.
I heard Ian's story and I truly believe him. He has never changed his story no matter how many times I ask and I don't believe he is lying.
I think the thing that bothers me is this. Just because Ian has problems, he has been stuck with a repuation since he was in Kindergarten. Is it fair? NO! How does anyone expect him to change? He works so hard to make a good impression and be a good boy, but then when he does, it seems to go unnoticed. I can't fight all his fights for him. I can't win this battle. I don't want to win. But I don't want my sons integrity deminished becuase of his past. That's like a person going to jail...doing 10 years of time...getting out...and then never being able to be forgiven for their past mistakes. I don't know maybe I am over analyzing this whole thing but at this point, I am just so upset for Ian.
Tonight at church...my heart was hurting so bad! You can tell this day had just gone wrong from the beginning. So we get there and all the chairs were set in small circles. So I knew...."Oh yeah...we're praying tonight" So we go to the front...cause I love to sit in the front...and we have people come sit with us that do not normally sit with us. That made me feel so good. Normally you go in and sit with your friends, or people from your small group, and that's so easy. Those people already know your junk. So tonight, here we are with new people...some we had to even introduce ourselves to...even though they have gone there for years....and the prayer time began. We had a great leader who started with a very good prayer and eased us into it. But when I started to look down...I just couldn't help but feel the tears run down my face. What? I didn't feel like I was crying. You know that feeling you get when you try to hold back the tears...well...I wasn't trying to hold back...I just bowed...and the flood came. I was able to open up and pray a what I believe was a very selfish prayer for myself and for the day that I had. Almost INSTANTLY I felt this release of negative energy come off of shoulders and I felt like a burden had been lifted. That's totally what I needed. I just needed to talk to God about it. I really didn't want to go to church tonight, but I had hopes there would be something there that would get me out of my funk and lift my spirits.
By the time we left, I felt like a totally different person. I walked through those doors tonight very hard harted and upset and came out with a sense of peace.
At least the day ended on a good note. I love days like this and must thank God for each of them.

Zildjian's classic sound is embodied by A Zildjian and immortalised in countless recordings by the greatest drummers of all time. Known for their versatility, these bright cymbals range from paper thin and delicate to extra heavy and cutting. Recent adjustments were made to the curvature and weights of many current models to capture the sweet spot of the classic A sound, producing crashes, rides, and hats that reflect today's musical styles.

Happy Sunday everyone! I completely meant to post this yesterday, and then got hit with a killer headache that left me sleeping alllllllll day(whoops?). Lesson learned: remember to set up auto-queue!
Today I have the limited edition Elevation Polish Geo Duo, Dykh-Tau and Dzhangi-Tau.
This duo is a limited run polish, and it will only be stocked twice more this month before retiring, so get it while you can!
The first polish of the duo is Dykh-Tau. According to the Elevation Polish bigcartel description, it is a "sort of a greenish sea glass. Dykh-Tau has an element of twinkle to it. Sparse holographic pigment and a teal-ish wink blended in."
I loooooooove this color! Polishes in this color category are my weakness. The holo in it is not super strong, but it sure is gorgeous! The top coat I used on it was a holo-killer though, and every time I tried to take a photo without TC, the dang sun would go away. The photo below is 2 coats of Dykh-Tau plus top coat.
Dzhangi-Tau is a "teal-ish shimmer base with various white hexes, squares and sparse matte light teal circle glitters." according to the EP website.
This one is SO PRETTY. I love white glitters, and the light teal circles really give it a little oomph.
You can get the Geo Duo from the Elevation Polish Bigcartel site! It will be restocked on September 7th and 22nd, and then it will be retired. For more information on restock times, make sure to check out the Colors + Restock Dates section on the bigcartel site. And as always, make sure to follow the Elevation Polish Blog for information on new releases and news.

Reason #6
The Lights at Temple Square
We are planning on going to see the lights at Temple Square on Christmas Eve. Mike has been so busy with work that we haven't had an opportunity to actually go Downtown and experience Christmas in the city. So, seeing the lights on Christmas Eve is our plan... It should be fun.
Reason #5
Freshly Baked Banana Bread
For the last 5 or so years I have baked banana bread for the Christmas Season. This year I have had a hard time finding the motivation to bake. I think that it might be due to my ever expanding mid section. I don't want to add any excess inches to that portion or really any portion of my body... if at all possible. But, I think I might just end up making some baked goodness this weekend. I am feeling motivated right now to bake some, but then again... I am not home or even near an oven and I might feel differently by the time I get home too. Who knows?
Reason #4
Christmas gives you the BEST opportunity to go shopping! Unfortunately, I haven't really taken that opportunity this year. Mike has been super busy with work and I have found it hard to get motivated to go shopping on my own. Dealing with the crowds and everything just exhausts me when I think about it, let alone going out there and actually dealing with it. But, it's crunch time now and I have to deal with it. Mike and I are starting our Christmas shopping either tonight or tomorrow, since it's our last opportunity to get anything before the actual holiday. We'll see how it turns out.
Reason #6, #5 and #4

Check out my little Foxie Loxie!! Needle felted for a trade on Etsy :)
This little fox was so fun to make! For this project I used a more coarse wool for the body (I prefer coarser fibers - from my experiences, they seem to felt faster) and for the tail and sideburns I used a more fine wool. The face was finished with a plastic nose and a pair of glass eyes. I love using glass eyes - they make my miniatures come alive!
We have an enormous maple tree in the backyard and that is where I chose to pose this little guy for a photo shoot. Before I send this mini out, it will be attached to a ribbon. My miniatures look great sitting in a display case, but they also are wonderful hanging from your rear view mirror or even from your Christmas tree! And you know, Christmas in July is coming up here soon ;)
|Find this in the Etsy shop SleepingFoxBitchery
This "Little Sh*t Pet Silhouette Hand-embroidered wall art" is what I will be receiving in return. Well, not the exact one in the pic, but a customized one for my tuxedo kitty Artemis! When I saw this item, I knew I HAD to have it. Because, well...Arty is a "little sh*t!" Haha! I am so excited to see how this turns out and I will post about it again later, when I receive mine.
In the meantime, check out our shops on Etsy!

In the winter we complain about the cold, and in the summer we complain about the heat. I try to convince myself that I love all the sharp winds of the north and the warm dry breeze from the south, but there is a lot to be said for the comforts of the modern home. However, the direction God has me going with the Kids Outdoor Zone Youth Adventure Ministry, I don't spend a lot of time cuddled up inside.
I had a friend tell me the other day that society, in his opinion, began to degenerate when air conditioning was created. He believes that when people began to stay inside to be cool, we became detached from each other and thus began societal detachment (I just made that word up but I think it works). People quit sitting on the porch, taking slow walks, enjoying each other as neighbors in many ways.
I think societal detachment happens in a lot of areas. Next time you're driving in your car, look and see how many folks are driving alone. Our cars are very sacred in this country. I know for me that my truck, in many ways, is a safe haven when I am traveling or even when I need to think about something important. The Ipod is another way we detach. You don't interrupt folks or try to spark up a conversation with someone who has their earphones in.
For me, I get frustrated when I am talking to someone who pulls out their phone and reads a text message. Can I just say to them right now that is totally not cool and I have been known to walk away? Look at all the kids walking around with a phone right in front of them typing away the whole time you watch them. Not only are they not learning to communicate verbally but they are also doing it in a non-expressive way. They can end a relationship, beat another kid down and laugh all in symbols and letters. And it can still hurt or make them feel good about themselves.
Does anyone remember when we used to call each other and talk for hours? Now you Facebook them, text them and e-mail them a long note without punctuation or correct grammar. Is there a kid out there under 20 who has ever written a letter to someone with paper and pencil today? I am thinking a bar that serves oxygen, plays funky music and has pens and tablets of paper might work. Call them Twain bars after Mark Twain, the author, remember him? Make it cool to write letters. I would go, but then I am old.
What about reading? I think the art of reading is waning in the younger generation. My friend Ben Rehder, an author, was doing a trade show once with me, and there were kids everywhere. When they would come up to his table and ask what he had for them he would say, "Books, kids. Look, you can read them." They would run off immediately because he had nothing free to offer, and, for the most part, I don't think mystery novels about the outdoors interested them much. But then, not reading isn't just a kid thing; most adults are not readers -- I mean book readers. But I digress.
There is a day we have recognized as National Get Out of Your House Day, or National Sit In Your Yard Day – something like that and it works to get some people outside and meet their neighbors. That can only be counted as a plus, but will we ever really have the opportunities to befriend those crossing our living areas again?
The Lord calls us to share the Good News of his gift. It happens in many ways, but human to human connection, emotional and heartfelt, is most powerful. He wants us to know those around us, care for them, include them in our life story.
I Facebook, I text, I use my cell phone when I shouldn't, I am imperfect for sure. I do, however, strive to do better. This summer, this August, take the time to get outside and enjoy your family, meet a neighbor or a few of them. Take your family on an overnight camping trip or a ride to the lake for the day. The key will be to leave the electronics behind, which that includes the kids' stuff. Turn off the world beyond your immediate reach and watch how God will move to speak to you and your family. I bet you God will put someone into your life that day who will be amazing and awe-inspiring. You wait and see! Then e-mail me how the day went. I would love to hear the stories.

The Isometric Theory of Classical Banach Spaces pp 117-139 | Cite as
Representation Theorems for Spaces of the Type Lp(T,Σ,μ,ℂ)
Part of the Die Grundlehren der mathematischen Wissenschaften book series (GL, volume 208)
In section 14 we shall show that when μ is a finite measure L p (T, Σ, μ,ℂ) can be faithfully represented as a Banach lattice in terms of countable direct sums of spaces L p ([0,1]m, ℂ) where m is an infinite cardinal number and [0,1] m is m products of [0,1] with product Lebesgue measure being considered. We also discuss the isomorphic classification of these spaces.

ROSES to the Owen J. Roberts High School students, girls' soccer team, family, friends and members of Bethel United Methodist Church for their courage and grace in the aftermath of the crash death of Kelsey Kramer. Members of the OJR community and the church, which is located near the site of the crash that took Kelsey's life, teamed up to build a path from the church to the road so that students can visit the memorial there without walking on the road. The community's caring and compassion in the wake of this tragedy has proven what Kelsey's friends have said - that even now, she's bringing people together.
THORNS to those who are creating dangerous situations and damaging the business of a Boyertown restaurant owner in what police are calling a targeted attack appeared to be against the restaurant's former owner. Three break-ins in three days at the My Girl's Family Restaurant in Boyertown have been committed, and the third involved an intentional gas leak that could have caused an explosion. These perpetrators need to be stopped, and anyone who has information about these crimes needs to report them to police before something more serious happens.
ROSES to John Cherneskie, a Pope John Paul II student-athlete, for creating a softball field as an Eagle Scout project at Blessed Teresa of Calcutta Church in Limerick. The field is the home field for the CYO Blue Angels team of the school. The project took more than a year, and Cherneskie had help from his scout troop, Troop 129, as well as church volunteers and Bickel's Landscaping. But he took the lead in planning and coordinating the building of the field. Cherneskie took a scout project and made a lasting contribution to youth sports, Good job!
THORNS to the state Senate for considering eliminating public access to coroner records, a move that would set back progress toward open records in Pennsylvania. Senate Bill 961 would eliminate public access to virtually all coroner records. Instead of a full report on the cause of a suspicious death released in a timely fashion, it would require only the release of the name, cause and manner of death and even then it would become public only 30 days after the calendar year in which a death occurs. The coroner's office plays an important role for the public and the criminal justice system by providing an independent and timely investigation into deaths of questionable circumstances such as homicides, suicides, accidental and often sudden and unexplained deaths. There is no question that everyone involved in the process of someone's death, including the media, needs to be sensitive, but complete information about suspicious deaths is critical. This is a bill that should not move forward.

Youth Services | Immigrants | Tourists
TIMELESS – Aalto's architecture in Rovaniemi, a new exhibition at the Alvar Aalto Museum, takes an in-depth look at Alvar Aalto's work in and around Rovaniemi.
As well as the administrative and cultural centre, the works on show include lesser-known residential and commercial buildings. The exhibition, collated by the Provincial Museum of Lapland, will be open in the Gallery at the Alvar Aalto Museum from 1.11.2013 to 2.2.2014.
Aalto's work in Rovaniemi began as early as the 1940s with master planning. Over the dec-ades that followed, various buildings were constructed such as the Aho residential and commercial complex in the city centre and the Korkalorinne housing scheme, built according to the garden suburb ideal. Aalto's monumental architecture is represented by the Town Hall, the Library and Lappia Hall completed between the 1960s and the 1980s.
As well as the architecture, Aalto's buildings are examined from the viewpoint of visitors, employees and residents. "The experiences of users provide an alternative, complementary viewpoint on Aalto's buildings, which allows room for critical comment," says Charlotte Mal-aprade who has written the exhibition texts.
The Alvar Aalto Museum has supplemented the Timeless exhibition with local comment from Jyväskylä. Experiences of living in the Viitatorni multi-storey block in Jyväskylä are told by the residents themselves in words and pictures.
The exhibition was previously on show at the Provincial Museum of Lapland.
The exhibition will be opened at 18.00 on Thursday 31.10.2013 at the Alvar Aalto Museum. Welcome!

NEW YORK & LONDON--(EON: Enhanced Online News)--Axiom, a leading provider of technology-enabled legal and contracting services, has secured instruction from six global banks, including two bulge bracket houses, to repaper their derivatives trading portfolio in line with new requirements. Axiom's offering allows banks to remediate their trading documentation – either bilaterally or via industry protocols -- to comply with new variation margin rules in the US, EU and Asia, scheduled to take effect in early 2017.
"Margin mandates don't call for an artisanal approach, they call for an industrialized model - a combination of technology and process with the right balance of domain expertise, experienced negotiators, and legal advisory. Our uncleared margining offering is designed to provide just that balance."
Wide in scope, "the new margining requirements are probably the most far reaching the market has seen for large-scale repapering of complex client trading agreements," said Chris DeConti, Executive Vice President and Global Head of Axiom's Banking Practice.
"To help banks meet this massive challenge, we combined the legal, domain, operational and technology capabilities developed in our Capital Markets Banking Practice into a solution specifically designed to tackle this urgent and critical compliance mandate."
In recent years, that practice has conducted more than 50-plus projects supporting banks' derivatives documentation functions, leveraging a unique 'industrialized' approach.
Banks have traditionally relied on an artisanal approach to compliance in which more regulations has meant more lawyers. While the artisanal model is well-suited to providing one-off advice to novel problems, it is ill-suited to the high-volume and complex challenges of large-scale regulatory remediation. As a result, bank processes are straining under the stress of changing regulation.
Continued DeConti, "Margin mandates don't call for an artisanal approach, they call for an industrialized model - a combination of technology and process with the right balance of domain expertise, experienced negotiators, and legal advisory. Our uncleared margining offering is designed to provide just that balance."
Axiom's model combines its proprietary technology, workflow methodology, and a team of over 300 legal, negotiation and regulatory specialists in derivatives documentation. This specialized team has undertaken comprehensive training over the past several months for enhanced familiarity with the specific challenges related to uncleared margining reform.
The Axiom team will be powered by IRIS by AXIOM, a technology platform that enables banks to automate the drafting of compliant agreements. The technology mitigates risk and ensures consistency by 'hard-wiring' adherence to clients' negotiating policies and saves tens of thousands of man hours. Critically, a comprehensive audit trail is created at each step along the remediation process.
In addition, Axiom today announced that its offering now includes carefully curated law firm partnerships. While the repapering and renegotiation phase may account for most of the man-hours associated with the remediation effort, banks also require world-class legal advice to interpret the regulations and provide guidance to clients' overall compliance efforts.
This partnership model, implemented first with London-based Ashurst, not only marries domain-specific legal advisory services with Axiom's industrialized framework, but removes the client burden of assembling and managing multiple providers.
"We are strong believers in offering clients a flexible menu of service structures and technologies," said James Coiley, Partner, Derivatives Group, Ashurst. "We're delighted to partner with Axiom to help financial institutions face the challenges of margin rules implementation."

Just to give you an update on Piper's (Moodle) progress and updated photo. She is doing really well with her puppy training. She's very clever and soooo cute. There is not a day that goes by that I have untold people stopping me and commenting on what a cute dog she is. Thank you very much. We all love our fluffy puppy so much.
Regards Allison
Do you think Millie (Cavoodle) looks comfy sitting on Les. She has just been back to Doggy Day Spa again today and had her winter coat cut off as well - looking pretty!! I will send you more photos again soon.

Penny (Cavoodle) is a very well behaved puppy and she is very obedient. She is fantastic with our eight grandchildren & loves them coming to play with her. Nicholas, 7 years old, is very allergic to dogs but seems to have no problems at all with Penny. You may remember I gave her to my husband for his 60th birthday. He was absolutely thrilled with her & still is. Thank you for breeding such a delightful puppy.
Kind regards, Lyn Walters
We wanted to send you an update of our beautiful boy Bruno (Moodle). Bruno is 8 months old now, he loves to cuddle and play and enjoys his walks. He is the most perfectly natured little dog and makes us smile and laugh all the time. Thank you again for all your assistance in bringing Bruno to our family.
Kind Regards, Krystal and Vincent
We'd love to see Bindi (Moodle) on your website. She was 8 months last week. Here is a photo of Bindi when we first got her and another one taken recently.
Thank you! Nicole
I thought I would take the opportunity to send you an updated photo of our Cavoodle Ben. He is the most wonderful character, so full of energy and can I say sooo smart. He loves to give my 12 year old Cavalier King Charles - Winston a run for his money, it is very funny to watch. Thank you for breeding such wonderful dogs and we look forward to purchasing another one from you in the near future - My husband wants one exactly the same, I knew I should of brought 2!!!!
Cheers Maria
Here is a photo of our beautiful Valentino enjoying Christmas morning. Valentino is one year old now. We could not imagine what life would be if Valentino did not come into our life. He is such a big part of our family. Valentino is our very first Cavoodle and we could not have any other dog after what we have experience with Valentino. He has a lot of love in his heart and is a very smart dog. He is just one of the family. If he could talk you would think he was human. Thank you Fluffy Puppies for producing such a beautiful little boy.
Regards Diane
Here is a picture of our girls - Nikita and Emily - with Ava. Ava is incredibly intelligent - she learns very quickly and is also super affectionate - some mornings she can't decide if she needs a cuddle more than her food! From Day 1 she would curl up at your feet. The vet says she is a very very fine looking dog, perfectly proportioned! We have to agree, She is absolutely beautiful.
Thanks ... Kim
Just wanted to send you a quick email to let you know that our new puppy is settling in very well. She cried a bit the first night, but has been so well behaved and happy ever since. The kids love her, as do we. We have decided to name her Molly. She seems very relaxed and is enjoying exploring her new world.
Warm regards, Amanda
Chelsea was about 5 months old when this photo was taken. I have to say, she is the most beautiful dog. What a delightful nature, very little barking, she is just so perfect and the family couldn't be happier. She puts a smile on everyone's face.
Kind regards .. Ros

"The rising sun and a bird"
Any guesses about this statement?
I am referring to the header image of my blog. The photograph of the rising sun and a bird which is now the identity of my blog "Live Your Dreams…Create the life you wish" was clicked by me in December 2014, from window of my hotel room early in the morning, during my official tour. That morning when opened the curtain of the window, I saw the beautiful sun rise and it instantly tempted me to capture that amazing scene in my camera. I clicked two photos. Second time when I was clicking the photo, it was a clear sky and the sun but after the click, a bird appeared in the photo amazingly..I was literally stunned because the way bird got clicked with full open feathers rising up in sky with all freedom, it was amazing. That moment was really fantabulous. I was not aware that in few days after this day, I would be starting my blog and this beautiful photograph would be my blog's identity. Universe plans so amazingly, we can never ever plan in such a perfect way. Even the title of my blog was an unexpected title that came instantly to my mind when I made a WordPress account for initiating blog. Today when I correlate the image and the name of my blog, it perfectly matches and gives a clear message about my blog. Rising sun right after the dawn gives us an inspiration that after the darkest night there will be a dawn which is much more powerful than the darkness. It gives us a learning that like sun we should always give light to the world surrounding us unconditionally and the rising sun is the most positive moment full of hope for the beautiful new day. The bird flying high in the sky with feathers completely open gives us inspiration to fly confidently high in our life with all enthusiasm and courage towards our dream and live free from worries and do every task with all our heart.
Amazing message from the universe from one photograph, I would rather say one moment that I was able to capture to my heart due to god's grace. A big big thanks to the Universe.

Join us this Wednesday, July 20th for L'ATALANTE
The Portage Theater – 4050 N. Milwaukee Ave – 7:30 – $5.00 per ticket
July 20th, 2011
Jean Vigo • 1934
Cinephiles have long bemoaned the early death—at 29, of tuberculosis— of Jean Vigo, but why mourn the infinite possibility of films not made when his only feature, the inexhaustible L'Atalante, suggests infinity itself ? From a slender premise—newlyweds Dita Parlo and Jean Dasté adapt to life on a barge, which they must share with salty sailor Michel Simon and his legion of cats—Vigo fashions a tremendously affecting account of what it means to live with another person. Between the siren call of the radio, the lovely Maurice Jaubert score, the highly eccentric and unaccountable editorial rhythm, and, above all, Simon's unintelligible grumble of a performance, L'Atalante is a sorry, disreputable excuse for a talkie and the film that most bracingly consolidates the noisy promise of the sound cinema, single-handedly justifying the death of the silents. (Its only competition in that respect, the Fleischer Brothers' Popeye the Sailor, is also a fitting cousin.) Mutilated by its distributor (while Vigo was dying!) to impossibly evince a more commercial movie, L'Atalante has since been restored and elevated to an uneasy perch in film history, saddled with the responsibility of representing something more than its anarchic and casual self.

Speaking from his vantage point as a former Air Force secretary and atomic weapons scientist, Thomas C. Reed said there is plenty to be concerned about in a world where factions bent on destroying American life want to join the nuclear club.
For example, although the United States and Russia are "hard at work looking for it," he said, there's enough plutonium missing from the former Soviet Union's inventory to make roughly 25 bombs like "Fat Man," the one a U.S. bomber dropped on Nagasaki, Japan, in World War II, killing 39,000 people outright.
"In the case of plutonium, how much plutonium did they produce? Well, they produced between 140 and 162 tons. If they can't find a tenth of one percent, that means there is 310 to 360 pounds of plutonium lying around somewhere," Reed said Monday.
Reed, a former weapons designer at Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory in California, teamed up with Danny B. Stillman, a colleague from New Mexico's Los Alamos National Laboratory, to write "The Nuclear Express: a Political History of the Bomb and its Proliferation," which was published this month by Zenith Press.
Reed, who served as Air Force secretary during the Ford and Carter administrations, will discuss "The Nuclear Express" at a Distinguished Lecture Series presentation 6:30 tonight at the Atomic Testing Museum, 755 E. Flamingo Road.
His lecture follows one earlier this month by local author Stephen M. Younger, who suggests in his book, "The Bomb: A New History," that keeping tabs on nuclear materials and secrets is a challenging task.
Like the electrons that orbit the nucleus of an atom, there are many questions swirling around the role China has played in spreading nuclear weapons knowledge to countries such as North Korea and Pakistan.
Reed and Stillman think the nuclear seed was planted in China by a convicted World War II Los Alamos spy for the Soviets, Klaus Fuchs, a German refugee who fled to England in 1933. Fuchs met China's chief A-bomb scientists upon his release from a British prison in 1959.
But the story doesn't stop there. An American-born spy from the Los Alamos lab helped the Soviets develop the hydrogen bomb in the early 1950s, Reed asserted.
"The facts are nobody in the Soviet system claims credit," he said.
"Danny was head of counter-intelligence at Los Alamos," Reed said of his co-author. "He is quite satisfied that he has the smoking gun … that there was an agent.

Dream Aquarium Multi-monitor zoom effect
The aquarium scenery is much like a painting or photograph, and as such it was composed and framed in a certain way. The Dream Aquarium scenery was designed to fit the dimensions of a standard high-definition TV. Putting two HD monitors side-by-side doubles the width of your display while keeping the height the same. This creates a radically different-shaped 'window' into the existing aquarium image - one which is extremely wide and not very tall. Dream Aquarium is forced to 'crop' into the existing image to make it fit onto the double-wide window which two side-by-side monitors create. The following image helps to visualize what is going on:

Summary: "Sasuke is called in to expose a deadly group of hackers know as The Zodiac Viruses. He knows 3 things. 1) The hackers are in high school, 2) There's thirteen viruses, 3) The animals are just annoying."
Warnings: AU, OOC, Twists, and chaos. (Editor's Note: Bear in mind that we know nothing of the inner workings of either hackers or police. Glaring mistakes and inaccuracies will abound. Don't say we didn't warn you. In retrospect, the fact that these characters are all in high school is just ridiculous. BAI: … Lets just not go there.)
Starting... Opening... Whatever.
Zodiac Viruses- chapter 1- I Hate Hackers- launching program...
Sasuke sighed and rubbed his temples as a black and red horse pranced smugly across the now-blank screen, occasionally pausing to stick its tongue out. Whatever files, or data, that had been taken was long gone, with the original set also destroyed in the aftermath. That was just the way these hackers worked. Clean. Effortless. Subtle. Untraceable. And other related adjectives.
In other words: a pile of paperwork for new head of the cyber division of the Police. Because, like the previous time and the time before that, they had gotten there too late. It was always like this. They'd get a call and by the time the squad made it there the hacker was long gone. They had tried on numerous occasions to trace from their computers back at base, yet kept being diverted to various (illegal) websites. An annoying signature left on the screen was the only sign of their presence and crimes.
"I hate hackers." He muttered darkly, checking to see if there was anything left on the computer. A useless act, as he already knew there wouldn't be. The screen flickered occasionally, and the pixel sprite started across the screen again. It would do that forever, as far as he knew. Even after they turned off the computer, which baffled the engineers back at the station.
"Sasuke, lets get going. There's nothing we can do here and we have school tomorrow." Sakura, his partner since this whole mess began, said sympathetically from the doorway. Sasuke sighed again and stood up to follow her. She was right. She was right every time they arrived too late: there was never anything they could do.
He hated it.
The figure sat alone, the darkness of the room hiding his features. The others had long since gone disappeared, leaving him to finish their delicate work for the day. In front of him, a computer screen flickered softly as the files were stored safely away in the many other computers in the room. The hardware hummed with contentment, oblivious to the sigh of relief that came out a little too loud from the figure.
"That was too close."
"Another dead-end?" His brother asked quietly at breakfast the next morning. The early morning sun was barely rising over the houses surrounding their home, yet it was bright enough that they didn't need to turn on any lights. From his position at the bar, Sasuke looked up from his cereal to meet Itachi's penetrating gaze. That gaze made most people uneasy, but after fourteen years Sasuke was immune. That, and he knew where he could find the family albums and pull enough blackmail on his brother to never be truly afraid of him.
"Yes, big surprise there. Why do they have to be so organized?" He complained, frustration returning full force, throwing his hands up in the air. This succeeded in splashing both of the Uchiha with milk and cereal from the spoon still in the younger brother's hand. Itachi raised an eyebrow as he elegantly, as only Itachi could, plucked a cheerio from his brow. Sasuke smiled apologetically. "Seriously, what happened to the criminal organizations that didn't know how to cover their own tracks?"
"They all got arrested." Itachi answered dryly, washing his face with a damp towel, afterwards throwing it at his younger brother with a raised brow. Sasuke glared at him, catching the cloth with one hand.
"It was a rhetorical question." The younger brother quietly cleaned up the spill with a scowl. The elder Uchiha smirked mockingly at Sasuke, pouring a cup of coffee for himself.
"I know."
Sasuke rolled his eyes at his brother's irritating sense of humor. "And the animals are just annoying. I mean one of the viruses actually melted the inside of the computer and still managed to make a rabbit hop across the screen!"
Itachi leaned against the counter across from his brother, cup of coffee now in hand. His gaze was thoughtful, "Are there really thirteen hackers? Seem like an ominous number to me." It had been during one of Sasuke's previous rants that the Itachi learned of what the top theories were and how Sasuke thought they didn't factor in various facts, like the images of animals despite the screens being turned off.
Sasuke shook his head. "There are thirteen viruses, one for each zodiac animal including the cat, but that doesn't mean there are thirteen people. There could be one or one hundred for all we know." Which was another problem. Was each program specific to one person or could anyone with computer skills use it? Did that mean only one person was performing these felonies, or were multiple people behind it? That opened up the fact that hackers of this level had never teamed up before; it already took an entire team to bring down a single hacker of that caliber, let alone a group of them.
Sasuke shoved his cereal into his mouth with more force than necessary, rubbing his temples after he swallowed. Itachi smirked, and Sasuke halted in his shoving to cast a curious glance at his brother. With a lazy gaze and irritating smile, Itachi answered the unasked question, "This is why I don't do police work, little brother."
"Che, if you were on the case we'd probably have the whole thing wrapped up by now." With a sigh Sasuke ran a hand through his hair, ruffling it thoroughly. His brother closed his eyes and spoke in a quiet, absent manner.
"I'm a genius, not a miracle worker."
The younger Uchiha snorted softly, a dull expression crossing his face. "I know." He stood up, empty dishes in hand, and made his way to the sink. "At least we know one thing." Sasuke commented idly as he placed the bowl in the sink.
Itachi glanced up, "And what's that?" He took a sip of coffee and watched as Sasuke carefully started cleaning the dishware. If only the fangirls knew. The elder brother could probably finance his tuition if he managed to take a picture of Sasuke doing something so domestic and made copies to sell. Yes, then he could charge even more if he got pictures of Sasuke sleeping, maybe even make a combo of pictures. He'd be a millionaire. Sasuke was oblivious to his brother's plotting.
"The most likely theory we have right now, all variables included, is that the hackers are young. Probably in high school, if the hours they attack at are any indications. We've already tracked down everyone with the background needed over the age of 20, and none of them fit." Wiping his hands on a towel, Sasuke leaned against the edge of the sink.
"Interesting." Itachi's tone got serious then, enough to have Sasuke's full attention, "Be careful out there, Sasuke. If you're not, you could find yourself in a lot of trouble. Hackers can be dangerous."
"I know. I'll be careful." Sasuke appreciated his brother's concern. This was the seventh time it had been voiced, if not as subtly as the times previous to it. Itachi had made it clear he'd rather his brother not be on a case like this, but a job was a job and Sasuke wasn't a kid anymore. No matter how much Itachi treated him like one.
Itachi smiled then, and poked Sasuke on the forehead as he placed his mug beside the sink. "Good. Now get ready for school or you'll be late." He moved away towards the entranceway of the house, a mere hallway leading towards the kitchen with the living room branching off from it.
Sasuke scowled and rubbed his head. "Stop doing that!" He protested childishly, eyes narrowed in annoyance. Itachi smirked.
"You never minded when you were little." The elder Uchiha's tone was mock serious, coal eyes laughing at Sasuke.
"That was a long time ago. I'm grown up now." Despite his protests, Sasuke was laughing lightly. With a smirk to his brother, that was returned, Sasuke made his way up the stairs, heading for the bathroom and his toothbrush.
Making sure his brother was otherwise occupied; Itachi silently ascended the stairs and walked down the hallway to his room. Closing his door softly, he pulled out his phone and dialed a memorized number. After a several moments of ringing he was almost concerned that he had missed the other boy, only to have his worries dismissed as the phone was finally picked up.
"Hello, un." The voice on the other line answered tiredly, a testimony to that fact he had probably spent the entire night trying to finish some long forgotten paper. The birdbrain.
"... You aren't even out of bed yet, are you?" Itachi stated resignedly. He, of course, had finished the paper within a week of its assignment and had enjoyed a full night's sleep for the two weeks following it. "School starts in fifteen minutes."
The voice was irritated now, and slightly more awake than beforehand. "I know. I'll get there, un." There was some shuffling and distant shouting on the other end, followed by the thunk of something heavy hitting a wall or door. It would seem Itachi wasn't the only one who'd noticed how late the blond was running. The voice faded back into range, "What do you want?"
"I'm running out of supplies, what do you think of an outing to get more? We could all go." It was a fairly usual request. Itachi glanced at his watch. He'd have to cut this conversation short or Sasuke would be wondering where his ride was.
"Sounds good, un. I'll tell the others." There was a yawn. "But couldn't this wait 'till later? I was sleeping." Itachi smiled; a rare sight.
"It wouldn't be nearly as fun if I did that. We'll go to the usual place." He hung up without waiting for a reply. On his way down, he grabbed the keys from the kitchen counter and headed for the front door where Sasuke was waiting.
Sasuke sat in the back of the class, early as usual, and looked over the students in the classroom. None of the teachers had arrived yet, leaving the students free to their own devices. Off to the corner, Ino and Sakura were giggling with a large group of girls, the stereotypical popular group. The giggles halted for another girl to speak and more laughter was heard. They were the loudest of all the students and relatively annoying in that regard.
Up at the front, where most of the students avoided being seen, Shikamaru was explaining something to Chouji, who was munching on his ever-present bag of chips. Judging from what Sasuke saw it was on material they wouldn't even be covering until final year. Sometimes he wondered why Shikamaru didn't just skip a few grades.
Near the middle of the rows Naruto was copying Hinata's homework while the Hyuuga heir just sighed. Both were completely oblivious to Kiba and Shino plotting in a corner, far away from the girls, for revenge on Naruto's 'dying Akamaru pink' prank. Or rather, Kiba was plotting while Shino nodded on occasion. Maybe the Aburame was asleep; it was hard to tell with the sunglasses.
All was normal.
Sasuke caught Sakura's eye as she chatted with her friends with her friends. She nodded that all was well before returning to her conversation before anyone realized she was making eye contact with the girls' equivalent of a heartthrob. His partner may, in the most respects, be an ordinary girl, but she was very good at her job. No one would suspect that she was a member of a specialized team.
Said team had only been assembled a few months prior, when the police had begun to suspect that the hackers were still in school. If they couldn't beat the hackers online, they would just have to flush them out where their computers wouldn't be able to protect them. And that meant taking them by surprise. To that end, they had looked to the children of well-regarded police officers and adults already involved in local high school affairs, making them honourary police officers for the purposes of the investigation. Their goals were to scout the most likely of suspects without drawing attention to themselves; not an easy task with the various social groupings of each school.
They were targeting the most likely suspects first. That amounted to picking out the top students in the school, especially in computer-related classes. Shikamaru and Neji were high on the list- though Shikamaru got barely-passing marks most people knew he was a genius. Neji was a grade higher than Sasuke and currently under the observation of two other new officers. Sakura had suggested that the dog sign would suit Kiba well, and so with nothing else to go on Sasuke put him on the maybe list. That list was way too long, with the likely suspects' list far too short.
All talking stopped as Iruka, their math teacher, walked into the room. He surveyed the room critically, smiling pleasantly. "Alright. Classes are now starting." A gleam entered the teacher's eye, "Everyone who's supposed to be somewhere else leave. NOW!"
With the shout behind them Ino, Chouji, Naruto and Kiba bolted from the room. Iruka was very scary when he was angry, rare as those times were. Sasuke sighed inwardly and settled down for another uneventful class.
That night, Itachi made sure Sasuke and their parents were fast asleep before grabbing a coat to protect against the night chill and slipping quietly out the door. He went straight for his car, waited impatiently for it to purr to life, and began the twenty-minute drive to where the meeting was taking place.
The restaurant was quiet. The dim lights from inside suggested the place was nearing closing time. It was a tidy place despite its obvious age (the window stills, once a bright red, were now almost brown. The paint on the signs was chipping, revealing the wood underneath.) Parking his car and heading up the steps, Itachi wondered, not for the first time, if anyone actually ate here.
Knocking sharply on the door the Uchiha waited silently outside, the crisp bitter wind hardly affecting him through his thin coat. The seconds dragged on, before the sound of something unlocking was heard. Within a few seconds the door had cracked open and a thin redhead appeared in the doorway. Hazel eyes stared at him irritably from under a mop of bed hair, a slight scowl adorning the other teen's face. The waiter finished wiping his hand on his half apron, leaning against the doorframe. Sasori was never one to greet late customers, "We're closed. Come back tomorrow."
"But I heard you have some of the best tempura in the city." Itachi gave him a sharp look, his tone one of superiority. "And you closed just a few minutes ago. Surely you wouldn't turn away a paying customer." There was no room for arguing with that tone, though the redhead seemed to briefly entertain the thought. After a moment, he rolled his eyes and stepped aside.
There was an air as if this had been done many times before as Sasori pushed away from the doorframe, turning to head inside. "There's some in the back. Come on." The redhead then led the way through the maze of tables, Itachi dodging the various chair legs up in the air, and past the bar counter into the storeroom. The cool air of the room nipped at the both of them; the black turtleneck sweater of Sasori's wasn't warm enough to block it completely if the goose bumps on the teen's hand were any indication. That didn't stop him from removing one of the wall tiles from beside the shelves and typing in a code to the button pad behind it. A door slid back from where it had been camouflaged like the button pad.
As soon as the door closed Itachi nimbly dodged to the side as another teen came racing up the stairs a few feet away. Sasori was not quick enough to escape the flying body as she tackled him with enough force to bowl him over. An impromptu wrestling match ensued, ending with the girl who had tackled him sitting on his back. Her purple eyes were alight with laughter, hair of the same hue ruffled from the fight, though she was scowling.
Lifting his face from the floor, Sasori attempted to look up at his girlfriend only to be halted by impossible angle it would have required. "Anko, would you get off me?" She adjusted herself to sit on the small of his back, her one hand gripping both of his arms in front of her.
Anko leaned closer to Sasori's ear, whispering with a dark smile, "Not until you give me the dango you hid." Itachi mentally sighed from his temporary hiding spot. Any attempts to move pass the girl would end with a sharp whamp to the back of the head. The duo currently arguing were probably the prime example of opposites attract, with Anko's hotheadedness and Sasori's equally cool headedness often clashing in the most spectacular of verbal fighting.
"What dango?" Sasori's head met the floor with the hit Anko made to the back of his head. Her eyes were twitching, though the redhead couldn't see it. She was no longer amused. The redhead made a groan- or potentially a sigh, it was hard to tell with the stone floor muffling it.
"The dango in your hair." Her tone was sarcastic, mocking him, "I'm talking about the dango in your pockets, idiot. You should know better than to try and sneak some past me." Sasori made another groan, lifting his head to speak properly.
"If I give it to you would you get off of me?" Anko was mulling it over, her hand releasing her boyfriend's arms, to support her other arm as she mulled the concept over. After a moment she spoke again.
"Sure. Now give me the dango." The redhead propped his head with one of his freed arms while the other dug out the treat Anko was after. He handed it to her idly, waiting patiently for her to move. She didn't, instead she was far too occupied with being united with her 'baby.' Itachi smirked at Sasori's predicament before moving past the now-distracted "beast" and down the steep stairwell from whence Anko had come. The bright lights overhead showed the great metal doors at the end of the stairs.
As he drew near to the doors they slid open, welcoming him into the dimly lit room. Itachi's eyes adjusted quicker than most to the change in lighting, revealing three balconies connected by another set of stairs. At the bottom of the room was a rarely-used table with fourteen seats. Television screens covered the walls where the highest balcony was located, showing a variety of security videos from all over the city. One of the screens, he had been told, was now hooked up to cable. The balcony below that was covered in cluttered desks of computer monitors and towers. With chairs scattered in front of each other the desks, various personal affects claimed a desk apiece, and bulletin board covered in the important notices of who was to do what that day. The lowest balcony acted as their storage or living place, with cots for long nights and a miniature kitchen for the following breakfast in there. A couple of couches and more comfortable chairs were arranged in a semi-stylish manner.
Itachi had barely managed to place his coat on the back of his chair when Kisame's head popped out of their equivalent of a cubical, water bottle in hand, a few desks down from the Uchiha. "Oi, Itachi."
"What?" Itachi didn't bother to glance in the taller boy's direction. Most would have been offended at the lack of attention. Kisame wasn't most people. Quietly turning on his computers and pulling his chair forward, Itachi waited for the other teen to begin.
"The brats are going to be here any minute. We should get down to business." Kisame disappeared temporarily to retrieve their orders. He returned to popping his head out in under a minute, a sharky grin on his face that matched his blue skin quite well. It was a singularly odd sight, and Kisame often found himself explaining to disturbed passerby's that the gills and pointed teeth were merely plastic surgery, as part of an 'artistic expression'. Itachi wasn't sure if that was Deidara's influence or not. "Moor Inc. has a new security system that could be trouble. Itachi, you need to copy the program. Anko will cover your tracks while I get to destroy the original."
Itachi nodded in acknowledgement. He typed his password in and waited for the computer to finish loading his files. "So we need Anko." He murmured almost absently. "Deidara!" The shout carried over to another cubical where a blond pulled himself out from under the desk, numerous wires in hand.
Deidara frowned at the Uchiha, obviously not in the mood for dealing with him. He had been trying to fix a fray in one of his computers' wires for the past week. A very annoying fray- electrical tape didn't seem to do anything. "What, un?" He didn't wait for the reply before ducking back under the desk, but Itachi knew he could hear him well enough.
"Go get Anko." Itachi began opening the programs he would need. In a matter of seconds the desktop was covered in screens. A quick calculation had accounted for possible changes this hack could cause and whatever this new security system would bring.
"Why me, un?" The question echoed from under desk. A hand appeared and snatched a fresh roll of tape from the top of the desk before disappearing again.
"She likes you." Which was true, and it meant Anko would be less inclined to hurt him when he disturbed her from her favorite pastime: eating dango. Although Itachi still wouldn't want to be the one to convince her. With a grunt Deidara tossed the offending wires back under the table and headed up the stairs to where Anko was last seen.
After a few moments there was a shout, dulled by the doors, and Deidara came racing back, rubbing his head with slight tears in his eyes. He passed close by Itachi's desk and hissed "You owe me for this, Uchiha." Anko entered next, with Sasori right beside her.
"I need to copy some security program, cover me." Dedicating a moment to allowing his current partners to boot up their computers, Itachi prepared to launch his own, unique program. Created for the sole purpose of copying huge amounts of data in a matter of seconds, there was, understandably, a great deal of power needed just to start it. That was, in Itachi's opinion, a small price to pay when it was capable of copying entire mother computers perfectly.
Anko sat down at her spot, the computers loading her program quickly, hands dancing across the keyboard. Behind her Sasori was leaning on her chair, his hazel eyes solemn as he watched her work. Kisame cracked his finger joints loudly, before joining the other two in booting up and adjusting their programs. The three hackers worked at lightning speeds, typing almost inhumanly fast.
"Are we ready?" The other two hackers nodded silently, absorbed in their own work. "Beginning operation 'Sharingan'." Itachi's voice took on a professional tone, echoed with soft clicking of keys.
Anko called out a moment later. "'Snakes + Ladders' ready to go. On your mark Itachi."
No less than a few seconds after that Kisame's voice rang out. " 'Shredder' on stand by. On your mark. Get set-."
"Go." Itachi said blandly, activating his virus- nicknamed 'Sharingan' for no particular reason, other than he thought it sounded cool- with a push of a button. Within a matter of minutes the plan was in motion, and the damage being performed was beyond what the police could hope to protect against. This only made them a little bit smug.
"Great. Just great." Tenten remarked as she saw the security program they had worked so hard to design disintegrate before her eyes. A good month had gone into that system, only for it to be destroyed less than a day after they activated it. For no reason she could think of, either. Perhaps it was enough to assume the hackers just didn't like someone challenging their skills. That would have to be added to the report.
"No, really?" Asuma replied sarcastically, his cigarette poofing out smoke with each breath. "For a bunch of criminals they have exceptional teamwork. The rat, snake and ox worked in perfect unison." He shook his head disbelievingly staring at the screen.
On the monitor, with a blue background that normally came with a crash, the rat smirked at them, the ox seemingly laughing with the snake coiled around the cat. At this point in time they were able to confirm at least two programs that were active during this procedure, although the animals' presence implied there had been four. When they tried to follow the hackers via the internet they found themselves redirected to various porn sites and other sites that no respectable person would want to be caught with in their computer history. Just like the last time they tried to follow the cyber-trail.
"So..." Tenten began, rubbing her temples, "who tells Sasuke?" They both glanced at each other, then backed away from the monitor, leaving the scene for the others to process. Making their way to the door, they showed their badges to the secretary on the way out, and Asuma answered.
"Rock, paper, scissors?" He lit up another of his cigarettes, the last one having been finished a few minutes beforehand. He opened the first of the two doorways for his younger partner.
"Are you kidding?" Tenten stared long and hard at Asuma, disbelief clear in her chocolate eyes. "You have better life insurance between the two of us. You get to tell him." With that she was out the door heading towards Asuma's car.
The copied information disappeared into one of their mother computers to be sorted later, and Sasori was staring at Anko, who was grinning slightly. The redhead sighed at the needless use of his avatar and quickly removed it from the images of Anko's snake. His hands avoided hers as he made the appropriate changes, a fact that made Anko smirk.
The doors opened for the rest of the team as they showed up. Itachi wasted no time turning his formidable glare onto the newcomers. His eyes were sharp as he glanced at his watch, noting the five minutes separating the minute hand from the hour. "You're all late." His eyes narrowed further and, without waiting for excuses, he immediately launched into a full-blown speech about the importance of being on time. Especially when there was work to do.
The hapless audience turned desperately to the older members for help, all of whom were smirking. Proving the sheer fruitlessness of that act.
Nearly fifteen minutes later, when Itachi had finished his scolding of the latecomers and everyone had settled down on the bottom floor, the meeting could finally begin. There were twelve of them today- one member had a legitimate excuse for not being there and the Leader would not show up for something of so little of importance, hackers sat around a large table. The dim light of only one light bulb overhead darkened the room significantly, a perfect setting for them as far as they were concerned. At the head of the table stood Itachi, face impassive as he began the meeting.
"I have called you all here to discuss a very important matter. It has come to my attention that the police are cracking down on us. They know we're still in school and they've recruited many undercover agents to flush us out. I do not have to inform you of the importance of remaining inconspicuous." He paused, eyeing each member for a moment, "Keep to your covers, and don't associate with anyone from the group other than your partners. Sasuke's in charge of this investigation, and he's not an idiot. One slip up and he'll be on us. I'll try to find out who are the undercover agents. A report has been sent off to-"
Itachi was cut off by a coughing fit of Sasori's, only continuing when the redhead had finished "- telling him about it. We'll have an escape route prepared in case we're found out." Itachi's disposition changed, his face somehow more threatening though nothing had changed his expression. "On a more important note, who ate the last of the pocky?"

FUSH is a Fish and Chip shop/restaurant located at The Landing, Wigram Skies.
Pearlin and I decided to pop in to FUSH for a bite to eat after doing some grocery shopping at New World. I had no idea there were shops and cafes in behind the supermarket!
FUSH serves classic Kiwi fish and chips with exciting additions like fried chicken and salads. The staff are very friendly, helpful and attentive and the atmosphere is a funky retro style. The seating offered is tall bar height tables and stools and a couple of large wooden tables with bench seating. There is a large underwater mural on the window so the light is tinted as it shines in.
Our food was served in enamel dishes and our water arrived in an old glass milk bottle with enamel tumblers which we just loved.
We shared Sweet Potato Fries with Sweet Chilli sauce and Aioli and Southern Fried Chicken with Chipotle dipping sauce. I was super excited by the gluten free options offered (both of the dishes we ordered were gluten free and cooked in a separate fryer to ensure no cross-contamination).
The chicken was boneless, deliciously moist with a crunchy flavoursome crispy coating. What more could a gluten free girl ask for? The fries were crispy with just the right amount of salt. The sauces served perfectly accompanied the food and overall it was a thoroughly enjoyable experience.
Prices were very reasonable. We will definitely be back!

Funny, it looks a lot more spartan here than in does in real life. Perhaps because I can see the dust? (Which tells you I am not the World's Best Housekeeper.)
From left to right, you have Angel Christmas Tree topper. Yes, technically she's on a speaker, not the mantle, but close enough. I keep her out year-round because she has more than a touch of Faery in her, this angel.
Then the mantle proper: at either end, a hurricane lamp. These do get used from time to time when the power goes out. One of them has matches tucked behind it. No scrambling around in the dark for Laura. (Unless she's in the mood.)
Next from left: a card from our wedding. None of the others have been deemed worthy of preservation from the reycling bin. (No, can't say I'm particularly sentimental. Can't afford to be in this small house!) This card, though, I particularly love.
The little white square is in fact a box containing a medal my brilliant sweetie won for maintaining an A+ average during university. (His second degree, received just a few years ago.)
Centre: Our wedding picture, which is leaning up against a piece of Real Art. Which is probably not good for the Artwork, but the photograph will stay there until after I've finished painting the living room - the persnickety among you will note that I have not yet started, and you can just hush yourselves - and it can be hung properly.
And here are some items from the mantlepiece in the bedroom upstairs, because we do in fact have TWO fireplaces in this house, not that either of them work. They were sealed years and years before we bought it.
Because both fireplaces are very similar, I'm just showing you a few items from the upstair mantle.
But still appropriate for a bedroom, somehow...
There. The mantlepieces in Laura's house. Care to share yours? If you post pictures, drop John a line and let us know to come look!
Labels: domestic bliss, memes

Today is for the letter "H'
This past year I made a big decision to leave the school I was teaching in for 5 years to move back home to be closer to my family. It was a very bittersweet departure, as I have come to love the community that I taught in and have gotten to know so many wonderful and supportive families of my students in the years I was teaching at my old school.
I definitely don't regret my decision, as I am in an awesome and well known school district. But the best part is being able to see my family, enjoy nightly conversations with them, and see them happy. I used to be a free spirit that wanted to get away as far as possible from home when I was a teenager and young adult so that I could be free as a bird.
Now that I am in my 30s and partied out, I have come to realize how short life is and how limited the time we have with the ones we love. So this Thanksgiving season, I am definitely giving thanks to still being able to see and have my family members in my life and being Home Sweet Home!

ShareOwners.org: SEC Should Simplify and Streamline Proxy Voting to Encourage More Investor Participation Via Emerging Online Platforms
Oct 25, 2010, 10:17 ET
WASHINGTON, Oct. 25 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ -- The U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) should take advantage of its current review of the proxy voting system to dramatically simplify the process, improve information provided to investors, and spur wider retail investor participation through the encouragement of independent Web-based voting platforms, according to comments filed by the Shareowners.org/Shareholder Education Network (ShareOwners.org), a nonprofit grassroots organization devoted to educating investors and encouraging them to act more like owners.
In its formal comments supplied in response to S7-14-10 SEC Concept Release on the U.S. Proxy System, ShareOwners.org Executive Director Tracy Stewart urged the SEC:
- Assist ordinary shareowners in getting access to information and automated voting platforms. The ShareOwners.org comment letter states: "Voting is the crux of communication between investors and the board. Investors are responsible to exercise their voting rights, but as a practical matter, they require access to quality information, the ability to share resources with other investors and institutions, and access to quality vote platforms with automation and other technologies that eliminate the obstacles to voting. Change the rules so ordinary shareowners have these tools at their disposal. For the most part, we're still voting like its 1985, before the communication and technological improvements of the internet and the governance reform movement."
- Encourage development of voting platforms that include small shareowners by including a reasonable per-ballot fee in the proxy delivery fees paid by the issuer. The ShareOwners.org comment letter states: "There are technological solutions for proxy distribution but little that adds value to the actual act of proxy voting. Third-party voting platforms can add value by automating the vote process and increasing the information and communication avenues for individual shareowners, but they must be free to the user to have an impact. Per-ballot fees will increase competition of providers in this space and enhance the quality of the platforms. This will encourage voting among average shareowners, and their participation will benefit all investors."
- Streamline the communication process. The ShareOwners.org comment letter states: "The current system increases complexity, adds unnecessary cost and does not serve the interest of shareowners. Allow competition to determine proxy distribution fees, so that shareowners can get the most value from this service."
- Introduce data tagging for proxy and N-PX filings. Noting that this approach is recommended by the SEC's own Investor Advisory Committee, the ShareOwners.org comment letter states: "This will increase the quality and accuracy of proxy information that reaches owners via proxy advisory firms, as well as to enhance the value of N-PX fund filings for investors."
In the comment letter, Stewart notes: "The more we unravel the overwhelming complexity in the ownership structure, the better it is for owners to have a clear idea of their holdings and to enable tracking or auditing of their votes."
Stewart also points out: "The Commission should sanction the ability of retail shareowners to direct their proxy forms to third-party platforms, clarify the application of the proxy solicitation rules to intermediary participation, and encourage development of third-party voting platforms that include ordinary shareowners by including a reasonable, per-ballot fee in the proxy delivery fees paid by the issuer. With regard to owner-to-owner communication that may occur on these voting or other platforms, the rules that restrict electronic shareowner forums should be drastically shortened or eliminated."
"The biggest hindrances to shareowner voting now are paucity of reliable information outside of the proxy statement, such as from other owners and institutions, and lack of automated voting platforms for retail owners. Third-party platforms funded by issuer-paid ballot fees would allow retail owners to create customized voting policies, set their votes according to specific company information within the proxy, or match ballots with other types of investors such as institutions or informed investors with whom they share sentiment, individually or in aggregate. Such an account-based automated system could provide users with a confirmation email of their established selections in advance of each meeting so that changes can be made prior to the vote deadline and also reaffirm the general settings the investor has made for future instructions."
"At least two entities have such retail voting platforms in development. There are economies of scale in developing these systems, and competition for fees will likely stoke innovation that will drive features and ease of use to attract retail investors. The voting platforms will likely be offered in conjunction with existing information, communication and other services offered by entities such as ProxyDemocracy, Moxy Vote, or Proxy Governance. "
On the need for data-tagging of proxy-related materials, Stewart told the SEC: "It will have a significant impact on the quality and breadth of information that reaches the average investor."
Stewart added: "We have co-sponsored a report for three years on executive compensation voting practices among 25 large mutual funds, along with AFSCME and The Corporate Library, and the data in the most recent report was provided by ProxyDemocracy. We know the difficulty that ProxyDemocracy faced in trying to assemble this data, beginning with the task of searching for and locating each specific fund filing within EDGAR, processing the N-PX files which appear in a number of different formats, and filtering the reports for similar proposals, a process complicated by differing numbering and naming conventions. The procedure requires a great deal of manual interfacing, and it is time consuming and may be prone to error.
"We know of no other publicly-available, in-depth reports on U.S. mutual fund voting, and only a handful of other for-profit companies have ventured into business models that accommodate the information in the N-PX reports. We believe the information contained in these reports can have a dramatic impact on shareowner value if it is shaped into usable form, and we are willing to expand our efforts in this area beyond executive compensation and beyond the 25 firms covered, as investors deserve, if the Commission can help make this information more accessible and less costly to process."
The full text of the ShareOwners.org comment letter to the SEC is available online at http://www.ShareOwners.org.
Launched in June 2009, ShareOwners.org (http://www.ShareOwners.org) is a nonprofit and nonpartisan organization that educates and organizes U.S. investors to support both short- and long-term financial market reforms. ShareOwners.org's broad four-part agenda focuses on the need for stronger regulation (including a beefed-up SEC), increased accountability of boards/CEOs, improved financial transparency and protection of the legal rights of investors. Also known as the "Shareowner Education Network," ShareOwners.org is a grassroots effort to galvanize individuals to act more like owners. Our mission is to provide the tools and resources for shareholders to become informed about their investments, to exercise their ownership rights and to influence the policies of their financial advisors.
