Writing, Wondering, Waiting are the 3 W's for authors
Well, it's another Wednesday and another month since we last communicated. And since I last blogged about my latest novel being scrutinized by a top literary agency. I wish to project that the old axiom is surely true. If you can't take the heat, get out of the fire. I am slowly being tortured by time. It is a long while now and no word. My securities, I only expect a rejection. And if rejection would just sadly arrive, I could live with it and move on. However, that's not how it works! Day after day I check my emails and its arrival is not forthcoming, causing a surge in upset and an upsurge in their assumed insensitivity. Whenever my phone rings, my first thought it's them. No it isn't! I've gotten so crazed that I don't want to check my daily communications. The word "Unfortunately!" will be the hateful vision. So, should your novels reach the big time or you are awaiting a publisher, expect much tension and apprehension. Support from all, including our group is much appreciated for all us writers.

Recently, I had an epiphany, but not a good one. "We haven't had an American car on Weekend Wallpaper in far too long, " I realized. "This needs to be corrected immediately." But what car should I choose? A Camaro? A Mustang? A Charger? Some old-school muscle car? Perhaps some kind of Saleen?
Then photographer Joey D'Anna came to my rescue and answered that question for me. He hooked me up with this insanely great 1987 Buick Grand National wallpaper. I wanted something badass and quintessentially American, and this car is exactly that.
Here are some details Joey sent me about this particular car:
Its a 1987 Grand National that has been frame off restored.
The engine is mostly stock, but with an upgraded turbo, EPROM, and a higher capacity aluminum radiator.
Trans is stock, but rebuilt and has a shift kit installed. Rear end is a 3.73 posi, and it'll spin tires thru second gear - which is a ton of fun in an automatic
Interior is pretty much all original, and the only appearance change from stock is that its sitting on tires one size bigger - which gives it a bit more aggressive stance.
God Bless America.

My favorite car was a 67 Sunbeam Alpine2006-08-23 10:50:30 by autotek
Got it in 68 with 12kmi.I put an Abarth exhaust onit.It had a hardtop for the winter and was warm and dry.In the spring I would take it off and drive with a tonneau cover so only the drivers area was open with the top down.The heater on full blast and I was comfortable.I put in a Blaupunkt AM/FM which was a bog deal back then.I has a bookshelf speaker for the rear seat.I would tune the radio in FM between stations and it would pick up the ignition system.I would accelerate with just the front speaker then at 4krpm turn on the rear speaker.It sounded like a jet taking off,especialy when I was stoned.

Michiganders may be somewhat less debt-prone than Americans in general, but nevertheless, we carry over $36,000 in debt per capita. That means most divorcing couples have to deal with not only property division, but also debt division - in most cases, tens or even hundreds of thousands of dollars' worth of debt.
If you're facing a divorce, the question of what happens to that debt is likely weighing on your mind. We're here to help you understand how the courts will answer that question.
Separate vs. Marital Debt
As a rule, debt that was acquired before the marriage is considered separate debt. For instance, student loans you took out while you were single are most likely considered yours - and the same is true of your spouse's loans.
In general, the courts will treat any debt acquired during the marriage as shared, marital debt, regardless of whose name is on the account. For example, a credit card you opened after you were married will likely be considered marital debt, even if
only your name is on the card. Likewise, an auto loan for a car purchased in your spouse's name during the marriage is still considered marital debt.
There are a few fairly consistent exceptions to this rule:
- Gambling debts are considered separate debt.
- Anything spent on an extramarital affair is separate debt.
- Money spent on legal fees in a criminal case is generally separate debt.
- Student loans taken on during the marriage may be considered separate debt, depending on the circumstances.
During divorce proceedings, the judge will divide marital debts on the principle of fairness; that is, each spouse will be expected to pay a fair share. Usually, that means each spouse pays about half, but the court has some leeway to make an unequal division if the circumstances call for it. For instance, if one spouse is more at fault for the breakup of the marriage - perhaps due to having an affair - that spouse may be ordered to pay more of the debt. The courts will also account for each party's ability to pay and whether one spouse was more at fault for accumulating the debt.
Secured debts generally stay with the associated property. For instance, the spouse who keeps the house also becomes responsible for the mortgage.
Creditors and Debt Division
The tricky thing about debt division is that, while the court has authority over the divorcing spouses, it does not have authority over your creditors. This can create complicated situations. For instance, if your spouse is named responsible for a particular credit card debt in your Judgment of Divorce, but both of your names are on the credit card itself, creditors will still treat it as a joint debt. If your spouse subsequently misses a payment or lets the card go into default, your credit score will be affected, even though the debt is no longer your responsibility.
Debt division is one of several reasons why you need an experienced divorce attorney to make sure you are protected. It's very important to make sure every debt that is in both of your names is included in your Judgment of Divorce. That way, if your ex-spouse is ordered to pay a debt and doesn't do so, you can get the order enforced by the court. Likewise, if you end up needing to make a payment on a debt assigned to the other person, you can file a motion and get a court order instructing your ex-spouse to reimburse you.
At the Oliver Law Group, we help divorcing couples find fair and equitable solutions to their legal issues, including property and debt division. Whenever possible, we'll help you work out a settlement with your spouse that fairly divides both assets and debts, leaving less potential for legal battles down the road.

and I don't know how to stop. I live on the thrill... of being on the edge of my seat and telling people about it. but it's for mundane things. I get worked up over the littlest things that can easily be talked and worked out. but I'd rather pout, yell, etc. and get a pity party going for me. and I wonder why I don't have any friends.
it's always been hard to make friends for me I guess. I have a basic understanding that everyone is different from me, but I have a subconcious belief I can 'change' them and if I become their doormat, they'll like me and keep me around. same thing vice versa. I don't understand the people who just genuinely want to get to know my personality, and I end up driving them off so quickly from the drama. take my last relationship. I'd literally pick fights just to get my point across and get that adrenaline running through my veins. just to see how much the person cared. and he did, a lot. and I did open up to him a lot. but at any instance he tried to be himself and show him, I'd shut it down because it wasn't the ideal I was looking for. that's so horrible, because we were great, when my marbles were all in the same bag. but I kept ruining them with complaints, pity parties and stupid fights. I'd ask for endless advice for this and that and over analyze everything, but in reality still lacking the inner confidence and poise to go through things calmly and rationally like a normal human being. that makes me nervous.
who am I to tear people down for who they are when I don't even have myself together half the time. I only have myself together, vicariously, when I'm 'needed' and on my own, I'm just like a giant question mark. nothing is of 'my own' it's just by what other people tell me. and I never fully experience things, I believe, because of my perpetual unhappiness, and the wanting to please that I set myself up for failure. I'm so shy and nervous and self concious it's horrible. I'm so afraid to open up and be my normal self, so I just resort to saying and doing things to get attention. please and appease the masses. and it sucks because I know at the end of the day, no one respects me. and it's kind of the same in vice versa. I'm so afraid to stand up and be myself, most people have a hard time understanding me because I flip flop to whatever's going on. I've lost really good people in my life because of it.
how can I steer away from the stupid drama?
I like drama too much....

I think you should try to be friends again with your friend that cared about you if possible. You could try apologizing to him and talking to him about it if he still wishes to be your friend. I feel like it would be good for you to have at least one good friend before you start branching out to make other friends. When you try to get to know someone new, don't shut them down because they aren't ideal for you. If you continue to do this, you're going to be really lonely because ideal people don't exist. It could also help for you to imitate confident people- fake being secure until it becomes a part of you.00|00|0

Holloway thrift heaven: Blue 17
Just up from Holloway Road tube station, behind a rather unassuming door with the CND logo is Blue 17 (formerly 21st Century Retro), a cavernous vintage and second-hand shop in the style of an American thrift store.
Established in 1989, the shop stocks over 6,000 recycled vintage, retro and contemporary garments shoes, boots, bags and accessories from the USA and Europe.
Its crammed rails are positively cracking under the weight of leather coats, Seventies shirts, Eighties T-shirts, old Levis and vintage dresses. Most of the stock covers the later decades from the Sixties onwards but if you're happy to rummage you will come across some Thirties, Forties and Fifties vintage. Prices are decent (a Sixties beaded dress will set you back £50, a men's Eighties T-shirt £15) but not dirt cheap.
Take your time here and you could unearth a real vintage treasure, or simply pick up on-trend cut-off denim shorts, second-hand brogues or a cool T-shirt.
Blue 17

Forensic DNA
Written by Susan Geoghegan
0 Comments
Since the 1980s, DNA fingerprinting has revolutionized forensic science, providing law enforcement with the ability to connect offenders to crime scenes. In 1984, British geneticist Alec Jeffreys discovered that each person has unique DNA, which is found in their blood, saliva, skin, semen, and hair follicles. When law enforcement officers collect this biological evidence at a crime scene, forensic technicians analyze the DNA run a profile against a database in the hope of finding a match.
Since the National Research Council recognized the reliability of DNA testing in the early 1990s, the technology has become mainstream in our court system. Once reserved strictly for solving violent criminal offenses, this technology may soon be standard practice in solving property crimes.
NDIS and CODIS The FBI's National DNA Index System (NDIS) contains DNA profile records that are input by criminal justice agencies at the federal, state, and local level. According to the FBI website, the National DNA Index (NDIS) currently contains 6,625,752 offender profiles and 252,338 forensic profiles.
The Combined DNA Index System (CODIS) electronically processes the information, allowing crime labs from all jurisdictions to exchange and compare collected DNA evidence. It consists of two indexes, the convicted offender index, which contains DNA profiles of convicted offenders, and the forensic index, which holds DNA profiles from crime evidence.
A profile match in the forensic index connects crime scenes to one another, allowing multiple jurisdictions to share leads in the hope of identifying serial offenders. "Offender hits" can be used as probable cause for obtaining a new DNA sample from the suspect, and then they can be matched and confirmed prior to arrest.
Cost vs. Results
Expanding DNA analysis to include property crimes is costly, but the end result might prove well worth it. Property crime offenders have a high recidivism rate, and people who commit burglary often graduate to more serious offenses. Analysis of DNA evidence for property crime could ultimately reduce the incidence of more violent crimes in the future.
Factors that come into play when determining the cost of DNA expansion include outsourcing fees, the type of testing required, and the number of samples tested per case. In addition, the costs of extending this technology to include property crimes means extra police hours for both collection and investigation. One way to defray the costs is through funding.
The National Institute of Justice (NIJ) has funded a number of projects designed to determine the effectiveness of analyzing DNA collected from property crime scenes.
Burdened with understaffed crime labs and the high cost of analysis, the Miami-Dade County Police Department, the Palm Beach County Sheriff's Office, and the New York City Police Department were unable to keep up with the increasing number of DNA samples submitted.
This situation created a backlog of untested DNA evidence that had been gathered from property crime scenes and allowed very little time to enter known offender DNA samples into the databases. The NIJ assigned a task force of forensic science experts to address the problem and provide solutions, which included expansion of analysis capacity, improved education to increase the pool of qualified personnel, financial assistance to state and local labs, and development of new technologies. To date, all three agencies have had tremendous success in the apprehension and conviction of repeat property crime offenders.
From 2005-2007, the NIJ funded another multi-site project, known as the DNA Field Experiment. A collaboration of the NIJ and local law enforcement agencies in five jurisdictions, this two-year program produced a total savings of almost $37 million in property loss, along with a reduction of $5 million in police costs. With a savings of about $90 for every $1 spent, the project proved that using DNA evidence to apprehend serial burglars is well worth the investment.
Topeka, Denver, Los Angeles, Phoenix and Orange County, CA participated in the study with excellent results. Suspect identifications, arrests and prosecutions doubled. DNA arrestees had twice as many prior arrests and convictions than those apprehended via traditional investigations. DNA is twice as effective in identifying offenders than fingerprinting (AFIS).
The National Law Enforcement and Corrections Technology Center (NLECTC) is currently coordinating a project to collect and compare DNA samples from property crimes in South Carolina's Low Country. Five area police agencies are involved in the project, along with the Marshall University Forensic Science Center, located in West Virginia. Through NIJ funding and Marshall's extended lab capabilities, it has been possible to devote the resources necessary to test the viability of DNA analysis for property crime offenses.
In addition to the analysis of traditional DNA samples, such as blood and saliva, "touch" DNA evidence was found to be effective in developing an offender profile. Also known as "trace" DNA, it involves the collection and analysis of skin cells that slough off the offender onto the surface of items at the crime scene.
However, the collection and analysis of touch evidence is more challenging than that of traditional DNA samples, such as blood or saliva. Investigators must be trained to recognize trace evidence, and a greater number of cells are required to ensure successful results.
Despite these issues, advances in technology are making it possible to form usable profiles. As a result, the South Carolina agencies are now able to give touch evidence a higher priority than before. The Low Country Project will end October 2009, but the results thus far indicate a positive outcome.
The NIJ funding was also responsible for the Denver DNA Burglary Project, which allowed the city to use state-of-the-art automated DNA analysis technology to solve property crimes. With a reported 7,500 burglaries per year and rising, Denver welcomed the opportunity to apprehend repeat offenders. Initiated in 2005, the project produced real results. More than 95 serial burglars in the Denver area were arrested and convicted—a drop of 26% in the burglary rate.
Cases built on DNA evidence had a 42% higher prosecution filing rate; an increase in prison time done by offenders apprehended through DNA evidence; and a total annual savings of more than $29 million. Again, this is compelling evidence in favor of using DNA evidence to prosecute and convict repeat property crime offenders.
Automated DNA Analysis
The most widely used technique for DNA analysis is the Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR) method. This process produces large numbers of copies of DNA molecules from minute quantities in just a few hours. It consists of three basic steps, 1) the original DNA is heated until the double-stranded helix is broken down into single-stranded DNA, 2) the temperature is reduced to allow the primer to bind to the single strand and 3) the temperature is raised again for replication of the DNA.
In February of this year, Applied Biosystems, a division of Life Technologies, revealed that its DNA solutions technology is being used by law enforcement agencies to include criminal investigations of property crime. According to Lisa Schade, director of marketing for forensic DNA, the company has developed an automated DNA analysis system that allows the processing of up to 88 samples at one time, as opposed to the manual system where only one sample can be processed at a time.
Most forensic processors spend about 50% of their time on the many steps required to develop a genotype. This system reduces the time spent in analysis, leading to faster results in forensic investigations.
Applied Biosystem's GeneMapper ID-X software is a state-of-the-art automated data assessment system that separates DNA samples requiring manual review from those that do not. This significantly reduces the time spent on routine analytical tasks, resulting in heightened efficiency and productivity.
With features such as the Analysis Requirement check and Improved Quality Value System, samples are quickly analyzed and segregated into pass or review categories based on thresholds. GeneMapper ID-X Software captures the rule-based, subject-specific knowledge of forensic analysis, streamlining the process for analyst interpretation.
Applied Biosystems has also partnered with Tecan, a company that develops and distributes automated laboratory solutions in the life science sector, to create the HID EVOlution System. Together, Tecan's Freedom EVO automated liquid handling technology and Applied Biosystems Human Indentification solutions offer reliable results and improved productivity for forensic laboratories.
When the GeneMapper technology was in the development process, Applied Biosystems relied heavily on feedback from various law enforcement agencies. The San Diego Police Department and the Washington State Patrol had been experiencing a large increase in DNA samples submitted for processing. Since expanding DNA analysis to solve felony crimes, both departments have recognized the importance of incorporating expert systems software to speed up the process.
Legislation for DNA Programs
In 2008, Congress approved $147 million dollars in funding for the federal DNA backlog program based on the Debbie Smith DNA Backlog Act of 2004, which is part of the Justice for All Act. Kidnapped and raped in 1989, Debbie Smith's rapist was not caught until 6 ½ years later, due to a backlog in DNA processing.
This act authorized more than a billion dollars in funding over a five-year period to be used for processing backlog of DNA evidence, establishing a national standard for gathering DNA evidence, and training sexual-assault forensic examiners, prosecutors and law enforcement officers in collecting and using DNA evidence. This program was extended with The Debbie Smith Reauthorization Act of 2008.
Many states are considering legislation that would allow taking a DNA sample from anyone arrested on a felony charge, as opposed to convicted offenders only. Proponents argue that increasing the size of the DNA database will prevent future offenses. Detractors view it as an invasion of privacy. As with most legislation, there is a delicate balance between maintaining public safety and violating civil rights. Ironically, it could lead to an even greater backlog of DNA samples submitted up for analysis.

Hello my fellow viewers. Here's my second story for everyone to see. Hope you like it.
Disclaimer: I do not own inuyasha or the gang.
She was running. Even though her legs should have given out a long time ago, she was running. Getting away from the hurt and pain that inuyasha has cause her.
She had showed him how she felt and she thought he had felt the same way, but why would he do this to her? Why would he go behind her back and hurt her so much?
She had bruises all over her body not only from the twigs and branches she was hitting but also from the wounds that her attacker had cause her.
She kept running until she trip and fell face first into the ground. Coughing up dirt and blood, her body couldn't run any more. She gets up the best way she can using a tree for support, crying her eyes out about what had just happen to her.
Inuyasha and kagome had walked away from the group seeing how inuyasha wanted to talk. The two were in love with each other. Inuyasha was the first guy she had been serious with.
It had even gone so far that they had made out with each other. They would mostly walk away from the others to have some alone time, but this was totally different.
The group had just been in a serious battle with Naraku and it didn't go to well. Kagome had gotten hurt but not to badly and lnuyasha, as always, was wounded badly.
Sango and the others had a few cuts and bruises nothing to serious. Inuyasha had blamed himself for letting kagome get hurt. She kept reassuring him that it wasn't his fault but inuyasha, being as stubborn as he was, wouldn't listen.
They were at Kaede's and it was near sunset. You could see the sun going down just beyond the trees. Inuyasha stop in front of the sacred tree and sits down. Kagome comes over and sits next to him.
"Inuyasha are you ok? I mean your wounds aren't heal completely."
"I'll be fine. I'll pretty much be healed by tomorrow…I should be asking if you're ok?"
"Me?!" she stands up. "Sure I'm fine! As strong as a ox!" she feels a sharp pain go up her arm. She winces. Inuyasha stands up. "You ok?!"
"Yeh I'm fine. I guess I shouldn't be move my arm to much."
"Yeah I guess you shouldn't." he sits back down.
"Kagome I think its best that you go home."
"What?!" She sits down next to him. "Why?"
" …When I saw you get hurt out there…I didn't know what to do. I thought I had lost you." "Lost me… inuyasha what are you say-" she was cut off when inuyasha pulled her into a hug. "Inuyasha…" "I'm sorry I wasn't there to help you."
"Its ok inuyasha." His hug around her tightens and he buries his face in her hair. Kagome doesn't know what to do or say. Then inuyasha stands up picking kagome up with him. He jumps off to the bone eaters well. He sits her on the edge.
"Look, just go home for a couple of days till everyone is healed. I'll come get you." "Are you sure about this?" he turns around not facing her. "Yeah I'm sure."
"Ok." Kagome gets up off the edge of the well and walks up behind inuyasha. She gives him a hug from behind. "Inuyasha just be careful. Don't run off starting anything and you're not completely heal."
inuyasha turns around and hugs her back. "I won't."
"Ok." she lets him go and takes one step towards the well, then turns back around, goes up to inuyasha, and kisses him on the cheek. She walks back over to the well.
"What was that …"
"just to make you heal faster. Goodn-"
"kagome wait." she looks at him.
"Yeah." he walks up to her and kisses her full on the lips. She begins kissing him back. He pulls away and they look into each other eyes. "Goodnight kagome." She smiles at him. "Goodnight inuyasha." she jumps in.
It had been a couple of days since Kagome had gone back to her time from inuyasha time. She was beginning to worry that something had happen.
"Hey sis wouldn't you be with inuyasha right about now?"
"Yeh but he said he would come back and get me soon." 'But its been about four days. Wouldn't he come and got me by now?'
To clear her thoughts kagome goes up stairs to her room. 'Maybe a little studying would do me some good.' She looks around her room for her yellow bag, then it hits her, she left it with inuyasha!
'Maybe I can use that as an excuse to go back! Yeh that will work!' she puts on her school uniform and goes down stairs.
"Mom I'm going back I left my bag there. I might just stay for a while." "Ok kagome be careful." "Yes mom." she runs out the door and to the well house. She looks down the well and get the strangest feeling. '
Its like the well is tell me not to go back…it must mean that something has happen. But what will inuyasha say if I go back and there's trouble? Inuyasha… last time we were together…' she begins to blush. "Oh he'll understand."
she jumps in the well. She is engulf by a blue light which indicates that she is going 500 hundred years into the past. Once she's there she jumps out the well and heads for the village, but a soul collector stops her in her path.
She follows it to a clearing and sees 2 figures in the middle of it. '
Is that kikyo and…inuyasha? But why would he go to her? Maybe I should listen in.' she quietly gets closer to them just enough to hear what they're saying.
"Inuyasha don't you want to be with me? You made a promise to me."
'I know but…"
"It her isn't it? You love her more than you love me."
"No kikyo that's not it."
'what? He doesn't love me? Then what was everything we had together?! Was he just toying with me?!' tears starting rolling down kagome face.
"Kikyo I love you and always will-" he cuts himself off when her scent hit him and the smell of tears. 'Oh no don't tell me kagome was here?!
He looks to where the smell is coming from and sees kagome running off into the woods. He's about to run after her but is stop by kikyo.
She had a smirk on her face. "Inuyasha you are to be with me not her." She kisses him.
Inuyasha is about to pull away but his love for her told him to kiss her back and he did. Within seconds the kisses becomes more passionate.
"Inuyasha will you do anything for me?"
"Yes anything." she hugs him. "Then stay with me."
"But kagome-."
"Is a miko. She can surely take care of herself." Her hug tightens around him.
"Just stay with me tonight inuyasha." She kisses him and the thoughts of kagome slips his mind completely.
Kagome sat by the bone eaters well tears in her eye. 'He didn't even come after me. I can't take this any more! If inuyasha can't decide how he feels then I will just have to leave. I'm not wanted here anyway.'
She turns around to jump in the well. "Kagome wait!" she turns around to see inuyasha running up to her. "Inuyasha…" she gets a strange feeling.
'What is this?! It's like my conscious is telling me to run away, but its inuyasha. Something doesn't feel right'
"kagome I'm sorry."
He walks up and hugs her. It sends shivers down her spine.
"I'm sorry I didn't think of this plan ages ago," he says in his ear.
then she feels it, the one aura that shouldn't even be there. Naraku. She looks up and realizes that the person hugging her isn't inuyasha but Naraku instead.
"Isn't it funny how things turn out to be. You here with me and inuyasha off with kikyo not even thinking bout you." He digs his claws into her back.
"Let go of me."
"I say right about now they're having the time of their lives."
"Let go of me!"
"He doesn't even want you here you're just a jewel detector to him."
a bright light forms around them and Naraku is sent flying. Kagome falls to the ground trying to catch her breath from how much energy she had use.
Naraku gets up and starts walking towards her. "You're a lot tougher than I thought." Kagome gets up and starts walking backwards.
"Stay away from me or I'll call out to inuyasha."
"He won't hear you and if he did he wouldn't come. He never wanted you here."
"Shut up!"
'You're nothing but a tool to him."
"You're lying."
"Am I? Just think about it."
She thinks about how most of the time it seems like he did consider her a tool. Naraku was in front of her with his hand on her chin.
"Now do you see."
she looks at him with tears in her eyes. "Get your hands off of me." She snatches her chin away cutting herself from Naraku claws in the process. She starts to back away.
"He won't help you, and neither can anyone else."
She takes off running into the forest.
"You can run kagome but you can't hide." he says with a smirk going after her.
*Flashback end*
Kagome forces herself to stand up leaning on a tree to help her. She knows she can't stop running cause naraku was after her.
How did things turn out this way she doesn't know.
How could inuyasha betrayed her was unknown.
She takes off again, running, till she hears footsteps behind her. She stops and looks around at her surrounds. The footsteps stop and the only thing that is heard is Kagome's heavy breathing.
"Who...who's there?" she gets no answer.
She starts to take steps backwards and hears the footsteps again but when she stops they keep coming. Then the sound of laughter fills the dark forest.
"Kagome. I know you're out here. I can smell your fear. Its only a matter of time before I find you."
Kagome begins running as fast as her tired legs can take her, but in a matter of seconds naraku was in front of her. He had a smirk on his face as he lashes out at her, leaving her bruise and wounded badly.
He reaches down and gets her part of the jewel shard.
"I'll make sure to tell your friends farewell." He says as He walks off leaving her for dead.
So how does the first chapter sound? I'll let you guys be the judge of that. Hope you like it. Please let me know.
Be kind and review.

Tony Yanow might be the biggest IPA fan in Los Angeles. His love for the hoppy ales is so extreme he nearly turned a local Burbank dive bar into an all-IPA-all-the-time destination, to say nothing of the hop-focused brewery he opened and a second craft beer-centric restaurant with a lengthy list of India Pale Ales anchoring the taps.
But Tony's Darts Away, Golden Road Brewing and Mohawk Bend still couldn't slake Yanow's thirst for beer's pungent flavoring, and last year he launched the Los Angeles IPA Festival to showcase the best IPAs being brewed in the state -- and to crown a best-in-show as judged by the very brewers behind the festival's deep lineup of IPAs.
Back for the second year on Dec. 6-7, the Los Angeles IPA Festival will gather over 20 beer-celeb judges to evaluate 60 hoppy brews, and L.A.'s hop-loving beer fans can post up at Mohawk Bend to work their way through the lineup.
Nov. 20, 11:01 a.m.: An earlier version of this post listed the festival dates as Dec. 6-7. The official event takes place on Dec. 6, but most of the IPAs will still be available, and voting for the people's choice award will remain open, through Dec. 7.
We sat down with Yanow to ask him a few questions about why there's such a hubbub about IPAs.
You clearly love hops and love IPAs. What's so special about that style of beer?
It's not just me, right? Everyone is going crazy for them. I feel like it's kind of like spicy food where you have that moment in your life -- I remember the day that I had spicy food and I liked it. I remember where I was. I remember what I was eating, and it was like a thing in my mind [changed]. Then you kind of crave it. You eat food and it's not spicy enough, and you want more. I feel like hops have had the effect on me. I just want more and more. I crave hops.
When I started Dart's Away -- and this was four or five years ago -- we were just going to have IPAs and that was it. It was just going to be an IPA bar. Everyone said I was crazy and that not everybody likes IPAs, and I was like, "So what. Enough people do." Paige [Reilly, a longtime employee of Yanow's] talked me off the ledge and said, "Why don't we do half IPAs, and half everything else?" So that's what we've done. We've got 38 taps, and about 16 are always dedicated to IPAs.
Why is the West Coast brewing scene so synonymous with hoppy beers?
It's not just West Coast, it's all over the country. But the West Coast is where it started and you can thank Ken Grossman [founder of Sierra Nevada Brewery] for that. And I do. You want to know why everyone loves hops here? Because Ken Grossman put hops in a beer that everyone fell in love with. I remember drinking pale ale for the first time and thinking, "Wow, this is a mouthful of beer." Now I drink it, and it's still great, but compared to everything that is out there now it is tame. But it is the foundation for all of this.
I credit the really experimental brewers who were not experimenting with crazy ingredients or additives; they were finding ways to showcase the hops that the American hop farmers were growing. Now, you go up to Yakima [in the region in Washington state where the majority of hops are grown] for hop harvest and it's like Wonderland. Try to imagine what the world would have done with a hop like Mosaic [a new American cultivar prized for its intense fruitiness and tropical aromas] 10 years ago. "What's this? It tastes like blueberries, that's not what we want!" Now, hoppy means a different thing [not just bitter]. It's really a misnomer to call everything that's hoppy [in flavor] an IPA, but that's what's happening.
Can you describe the IPA of your dreams — the perfect Tony Yanow IPA?
It's very situational .... It's a lot of tropical fruit, very juicy. It has a huge American hop nose that has almost a "dank" or resinous effect on my palate before it even touches my tongue. Then, I want something that's going to be medium-bodied -- but on the lighter side of the medium range. I want it to have a really bright effervescence, but I don't want it to be so effervescent that it burns my tongue. I want a nice lingering bitterness, but I don't want a bitterness that lingers too long. I don't want something that's like a crushed-up aspirin in the back of my throat. I like a really simple malt bill in IPAs. Above all that I want something that's interesting enough that I can sit back and savor and enjoy it, but not so interesting that I can't just drink it and enjoy it without it being distracting.
Beer is so much about balance, but not just sweet versus bitter. It's also mouth feel, carbonation, [alcohol] heat. It's everything.
How should a festival-goer choose what to order from the list of 60 different IPAs?
Personally, what I want to do is A-B test things. It's amazing how much perception of what you're drinking affects the flavor, the actual experience of drinking it. I think the best way to do it is to ask your buddy to go pick two beers for you, and then just drink them and enjoy them and then find out what they were .... Don't just go to [a beer] that you know or that has a huge reputation. If you just do that you're cheating yourself of the experience. I think one of the coolest thing about this festival is being able to compare your all-time favorites head to head.
Why call the event the Los Angeles IPA Festival and not the Mohawk Bend IPA Festival?
I feel like this has the ability to be much bigger than Mohawk Bend. I would like to explore the possibility of making it more than 60 beers. Right now we only do California beers, but I would like to open up to other states, other places. I think that in 2015 — depending on how this goes this year — we'll consider moving the venue to somewhere we can have a much bigger event.
I know the demand for IPAs is out there, and I feel like since this is small — in a restaurant — there's only so much you can do with it.

Guys have you noticed when dating/befriending an intellectual girl, that they are a little more crazy or insecure than "normal" girls?
Can you share your experiences?
Most Helpful Guy
Intellectual girls are just as crazy as any other girl. An uneducated woman will use ignorance to fuel her arguments, but a smart girl will twist facts to fuel hers. Either way they come off equally as insane and insecure to me.
I don't know if smart girls act differently to other women. Women are very competitive with each other, so that might be why you might have noticed a difference. I wouldn't be surprised if less educated women also treat smarter women differently out of jealousy.22|00|0
I'm tired of everyone calling people insecure. We all are. Every single person in the world has insecurities; just some have more than others &/or some hide it better.
Yes everyone has insecurities. I never implied that wasn't the case. Letting these insecurities take over and create tension in a relationship is a problem. It is a problem all men and women have, but the more frequently it happens, the bigger of a problem it will be.

I began 2016 with very few resolutions. I am a work in progress, so making goals is almost a daily thing. Coming up with year-long goals just because it is a new year usually doesn't work so well for me.
However, one of my goals this year is to experience pleasure at least once a day. What is the point, if you cannot enjoy life? Pleasure can come in many forms. For me it is usually time to read, or listen to music, or cook for the family, kissing my horses on their velvety soft noses or getting a big hug from someone I love.
I am sharing my pleasure point with you today. I had a few minutes to go for a walk. I haven't gone out in a while because of life being so busy with the holidays and such. But I love my walks. It is so peaceful in my neck of the woods (actually, the high plains). The snow has begun to fall and it is so quiet. Here is my view:
Happy Thursday!

The more pollutants added to the atmosphere by the activities of people and nature, the more aerosols are present. The more aerosols in the air, the less transparent the atmosphere is to insolation. How transparent the atmosphere is to insolation is called atmospheric transparency. When the atmosphere is less transparent, it means that more energy from the sun is absorbed or reflected by the atmosphere, resulting in less insolation reaching Earth's surface.
When the atmosphere has aerosol content so high that distant images are blurred, and a cloudless sky does not appear blue, the condition is called haze. A haze or fog, usually brownish, which is highly polluted is smog. Condensation in cloud formation incorporates some of the aerosols, and these aerosols are removed from the atmosphere during precipitation. The falling liquid or solid water also collects other aerosols on the way down, thus lowering air pollution levels and cleaning the atmosphere. Visibility sometimes found on weather mapsis how far you can see along Earth's surface expressed in miles. The poorer the atmospheric transparency, the lower the visibility.
On weather maps, half circles and/or triangles are used on the lines representing fronts to indicate the type of front. The triangles and half circles point in the direction the fronts and associated air masses are moving.
United States, the tracks (paths) and rate of movement of air masses and fronts can be predicted on the basis of past observations. Thus, the succession of weather changes that accompanies such movements can be reasonably forecasted. The arrows indicate the direction of some of these tracks. Most of the tracks follow a southwest to northeast or westerly to easterly route in the contiguous United States because of our location in the prevailing southwest winds belt.

Lauryn Hill starts tax prison term
US music star Lauryn Hill has started a three-month prison sentence for failing to pay about a million dollars in taxes over the past decade.
The Grammy-winning singer reported to the federal prison in Danbury, Connecticut, said Ed Ross, a spokesman for the federal Bureau of Prisons.
Hill started singing with the Fugees as a teenager in the 1990s before releasing her multi-platinum 1998 album The Miseducation Of Lauryn Hill.
She pleaded guilty last year in New Jersey to failing to pay taxes on more than 1.8 million US dollars (£1.07 million) earned from 2005 to 2007.
Hill, of South Orange, New Jersey, resident had faced a maximum sentence of one year each on three counts of failing to file taxes.
Her lawyer had sought probation, arguing that Hill's charitable works, her family circumstances and the fact she paid back the taxes she owed should merit consideration.

This was another name from my list when i was pg with my last son. I still like it! I know many people strongly dislike it - but it still appeals to me! I am a Today Show fan and that is what first turned me on to it (Campbell Brown). We also like the nn Belle. :)
Erm, no, Campbell really is not my style, because
a) it's a lastname.
B) it's not girly whatsoever. A boy I could accept, but a girl..?
I like it...its different and belle (Campbelle?) is very cute! I like it paired with Elizabeth to make it more feminine.
I really like some surnames! I think it takes a certain kind of girl to pull it off and a chlid of mine could! lol
We have Cooper and Grayson on our boy's name list and they are both surnames. :)
Campbell, obviously, makes me think of soup.
I really don't like it and I think she would be teased a lot.
I've always loved Campbell Brown's name. I think it's a great name!
I do like boy names for girls sometimes, but with this one.. I just think of the soup...
I just can't see this on a girl at all...sorry...
One of my friends has a daughter named Campbell and I absolutely adore it. I think it is good to pair it with a feminine mn like Elizabeth. I really like it!
NMSAA. Reminds me of Campbells Meatballs which had me vomitting in the toilet for hours, so yeah, i feel somewhat negative towards the name lol. It wouldnt be too bad on a boy.
I think of soup as well. I love Belle though!!
Even if you call her Belle, that will be useless when her teacher calls roll. From that point on she'll hear nothing but Campbell's Soup teasing whenever any other kid is mad at her or just feels like being a bully.
The soup association is so strong for me that I don't think of it as a surname. I would "fit" it with brand names instead of other surnames, like Oscar Mayer or Charmin.
It is spunky and the nn Belle is cute (if overused) ... I will give you that. ;) It's not a horrible name if you're looking to use a surname. I just would not pick one that's also a hugely popular brand name.
I just can't see it on a girl! Sorry!
Can't see it as a girls name as I had an Uncle Campbell!!
I think it's REALLY cute for a little girl! :D

I love having these easy paleo cookie balls with tea! They are a nice sweet treat to have without all the processed sugars and flours. They are also great if you are sensitive to eggs or vegan and gluten-free.
- 1/3 cup coconut flour
- 1/2 cup almond flour
- 3 tbsp ground flax seeds soaked in 3 tbsp warm water
- 2 tbsp arrowroot flour
- 1/4 tsp sea salt
- 1/4 cup coconut sugar
- 1/4 cup coconut oil softened
- 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
- 1 tsp honey sub coconut nectar for vegan
Grind the flax seeds by blending them in a coffee grinder.
- In a small separate bowl, mix the ground flax seeds and warm water. Allow to sit until it gels.
- Mix dry ingredients together in a food processor or mixing bowl. Add wet ingredients, including flax mixture and mix well. The result will be a thick crumbly dough-like consistency. If the dough is too crumbly to form into balls add another tbsp on honey.
- Roll portions of the dough into balls and they're ready to eat!
- Store extras in the refrigerator.

Join me on the air, Saturday at 10 AM PT on CRN, on
CRNtalk.com Channel 1
Call in number: 1-800-336-2225
This Saturday on the program Dr. Alan Bonsteel, President of California Parents for Educational Choice CPEC, joins us on the CA Budget battles and the impact on education funding, politics, policy and possibilities. CPEC is to thank for the push and progress to expose the real drop-out rates in California's Public School System. With the fiscal disaster in Sacramento, the political and public education class are scrambling to cover up the numbers. California has the 37th worst graduation rate (68 percent).
"…And what have Golden State taxpayers gotten for nearly $70 billion spent on K-12 education and the behemoth educational bureaucracy? Test scores in reading, science, mathematics, and writing massively lag the national averages. Morgan Quitno Press ranks California 47th place in the country based on its proficiency results. And California has the 37th worst graduation rate (68 percent)." (World Magazine Aug 09 issue)
Also, Brad Goehring, born in 1965 in Lodi, is a fourth-generation San Joaquin Valley farmer. He has owned and operated Goehring Vineyards, Inc. since 1989. He is recognized nationally as a leading expert on the Clean Water Act and has been called to testify and submit written testimony to Congress, and is a Congressional Candidate for the 11th District of CA.
He joins us to talk about the radical environmentalist politics destroying the Ag industry in CA. We'll talk about water and California's Cap and Trade Legislation, AB32, signed into law by Gov Schwarzenegger in Sept 2006, and the impact it has had on CA's jobs and economy.
We'll also ask him about a recent interview he did with Debra Saunders of the SFChronicle, in which his experience with and perspective on immigration policy was trivialized and distorted. The favored bias, argued by Mark Krikorian in that piece, advocates zero tolerance for immigration of workers, and expects farmers to mechanize harvest jobs or we should instead import our food from foreign Countries–i.e. Be dependent on foreign food, just like we are on foreign oil. Not a good idea.

I'm currently revisiting "The Spiritual Exercises of Saint Ignatius."
I first went through these exercises a few year ago with my spiritual director.
Recently, in my morning quiet time I have felt a need to go back and take another look. Why? I don't know. It's just a feeling. I've found that feelings I get like this during contemplation should not be dismissed. They usually lead to something pretty cool.
For the exercises, Ignatius encouraged meditation that involved the use of "fantasy," or, the imagination. This is a form of meditation is what the old timey theologians described as "kataphatic." This type of meditation is usually defined "prayer [that] has content; it uses words, images, symbols, ideas." It involves the conscious memory to place a person in a relationship with God. In the Exercises this involves imagining various situations, mainly from Gospel stories, where the person meditating "places" him/herself in the story as a participant or observer. One is encouraged to see the environment, taste the food, smell the animals, touch and feel things like the wind. The text becomes a tour guide while the imagination supplies the world being toured.
I realize that our own personalities, memories, and knowledge will color these meditations. That cannot, nor should it, be avoided. After all, the purpose of these exercises is to forge a deeper relationship with God for ourselves. So, we must bring our entire self to them.
Yet, God's grace guides us. That's where faith comes in. We can trust that we're not going too far afield. Plus, these exercises are primarily designed to be used with a trusted Spiritual Director. Someone who will assist in discernment and help keep us on track.
With that in mind, some interesting interpretations and understanding can come out of the experiences. I want to share some of mine.
During what Ignatius called "the First Week," there are a couple of meditations on the Incarnation of Jesus and His Nativity. Those are just a couple of high-sounding words that mean "when Jesus was born." I am using the following text for the outline of the meditation. For those of you keeping score, this particular passage is taken from the New International Version, Biblica, Inc., 2011.
We'll begin our journey with my next post.
Luke 1:26-38
In the sixth month of Elizabeth's pregnancy, God went the angel Gabriel to Nazareth, a town in Galilee, to a virgin pledged to be married to a man named Joseph, a descendant of David. The virgin's name was Mary.
The angel went to her and said, "Greetings, you who are highly favored! The Lord is with you."
Mary was greatly troubled at his words and wondered what kind of greeting this might be.
But the angel said to her, "Do not be afraid, Mary; you have found favor with God.
You will conceive and give birth to a son, and you are to call him Jesus. He will be great and will be called the Son of the Most High. The Lord God will give him the throne of his father David, and he will reign over Jacob's descendants forever; his kingdom will never end."
"How will this be," Mary asked the angel, "since I am a virgin?"
The angel answered, "The Holy Spirit will come upon you, and the power of the Most High will overshadow you. So the holy one to be born will be called the Son of God.
Even Elizabeth your relative is going to have a child in her old age, and she who was said to be unable to conceive is in her sixth month.
For no word from God will ever fail."
"I am the Lord's servant," Mary answered.
"May your word to me be fulfilled."
The the angel left her.
Luke 2:1-7
In those days Caesar Augustus issued a decree that a census should be taken of the entire Roman world. (This was the first census that took place while Quirinius was governor of Syria.) And everyone went to their own town to register.
So Joseph also went up from the town of Nazareth in Galilee to Judea, to Bethlehem the town of David, because he belonged to the house and line of David. He went there to register with Mary, who was pledged to be married to him and was expecting a child.
While they were there, the time came for the baby to be born, and she gave birth to her firstborn, a son. She wrapped him in cloths and placed him in a manger, because there was no guest room available for them.

Researchers have uncovered active and highly clandestine attacks that have infected more than a dozen Cisco routers with a backdoor that can be used to gain a permanent foothold inside a targeted network.
The SYNful knock malware has been found on 14 routers in four countries, including Ukraine, the Philippines, Mexico, and India and is likely being used to infect other parts of the targeted networks, researchers from security firm FireEye wrote in a report published Tuesday morning. The malicious router implants are loaded each time the device is powered on and support up to 100 modules, which can be tailored to individual targets. Cisco Systems officials have confirmed the findings and published intrusion detection signatures that customers can use to block attacks in progress.
"The impact of finding this implant on your network is severe and most likely indicates the presence of other footholds or compromised systems," FireEye researchers wrote in Tuesday's post. "This backdoor provides ample capability for the attacker to propagate and compromise other hosts and critical data using this as a very stealthy beachhead."

she looks younger than she is, that's probably why.
or maybe it's the way she carries herself, her walk, her talk.
is it because she humbly makes funny little jokes about herself?
is it what she says?
she is almost always underestimated and that can be a good thing.
going above their expectations is always a pleasant surprise.
sometimes it can be a burden to be underestimated, say when she is a candidate for a job, or when people don't believe her words to be truth. it can be downright frustrating.
she isn't perfect, yet, she hasn't met anyone who is.
she continues through the lost people living among their disbelief, their odd estimation of her.

Veneers are very thin pieces of durable, tooth shaped porcelain that are custom made (for shape and color) by a professional dental laboratory. They are bonded onto the front of teeth to create a beautiful and attractive smile.
Veneers can completely reshape your teeth and smile. They can often be alternatives to crowns and the ideal solution in treating many dental conditions.
As with most dental restorations, veneers are not permanent and may someday need replacement. They are very durable and will last many years, giving you a beautiful long lasting smile.
Reasons for porcelain veneers:
What does getting porcelain veneers involve?
Getting veneers usually requires two visits to complete the process, with little or no anesthesia required during the procedure. The teeth are prepared by lightly buffing and shaping the surface to allow for the thickness of the veneer. A mold or impression of the teeth is taken and a shade (color) will then be chosen by you and the dentist.
On the second visit the teeth will be cleansed with special liquids to achieve a durable bond. Bonding cement is then placed between the tooth and veneer and a special light beam is used to harden and set the bond.
You will receive care instructions for veneers. Proper brushing, flossing and regular dental visits will aid in the life of your new veneers.

Love love love this place! The staff is friendly and caring. My 3 yr got his teeth exrayed and cleaned with no problem. I also had my teeth done and a few cavities filled with no problem. I prefer not to use floride and they were very accommodating to that.

I used to dread going to the dentist after having had such bad experiences in the past, but I don't worry at all anymore because I know I am in the best hands with Dr. Jenicke and her staff. Everyone is courteous and professional and they treat you like you want to be treated. I recommend Brilliant Smiles Family Dentistry to all my friends and family!!

DB2 for MVS: Triggers & Stored Procedures
By Craig S. Mullins
Edge Magazine asked experts to describe how four different relational database management systems (RDBMSs) approach some key features: triggers and stored procedures. The four approaches contrast sharply, as do the features themselves. DB2/6000 does not currently support triggers, for example; it does support a special form of stored procedures. Also, none of the procedures in these RDBMSs is compatible with one another, making migration from one RDBMS to another very difficult.
Triggers are dynamic. Driven by events or by the clock, they start a stored procedure. Triggers are tied to specific tables and actions; they are invoked automatically whenever the table is the target of an UPDATE, DELETE, or INSERT statement.
Stored procedures are passive they must be initiated by a trigger or explicitly requested by a user or process. Stored procedures are not linked to specific tables; they may be invoked manually. Stored procedures allow an application program to be run in two parts: one on the client and one on the server. Also, stored procedures may be requested from a client application and executed from remote server workstations.
Some experts believe that commonly used procedures should be stored with the database rather than with each application. Benefits include improved application reliability, lower development and maintenance costs, and reduced network traffic. In addition, they say, it is easier to enforce business rules from a single server than on many clients.
Version 3 of DB2/MVS does not provide inherent support for triggers and stored procedures. However, three "trigger-like" objects can be attached to DB2 tables and/or columns:
A FIELDPROC can be attached to columns in any DB2 table. Field procedures are programs that transform data on insertion and convert the data to its original format on subsequent retrieval. You can use a FIELDPROC to transform the following types of columns:
No FIELDPROCs are delivered with DB2, so they must be developed by the DB2 user. They are ideal for altering the sort sequence of values.
Edit procedures
An EDITPROC is functionally equivalent to a FIELDPROC, but it acts on an entire row instead of a column. Edit procedures are simply programs that transform data on insertion and convert the data to its original format on subsequent retrieval. One edit procedure for compressing data, DSN8HUFF, is supplied with DB2. Additional EDITPROCs must be developed by the DB2 user. They are ideal for implementing data compression routines and data encryption.
Validation procedures
A VALIDPROC receives a row and returns a value indicating whether LOAD, INSERT, UPDATE, or DELETE processing should proceed. A validation procedure is similar to an edit procedure, but it cannot perform data transformation; it simply assesses the validity of the data.
A typical use for a VALIDPROC is to ensure valid domain values. For example, to enforce a Boolean domain, you could write a validation procedure to ensure that a certain portion of a row contains only T or F.
DB2: The next version
Of course, the ability to specify these three types of exit routines on DB2 tables is absolutely no replacement for comprehensive trigger support. Nor can the routines even remotely be considered any form of stored procedure. Truly, DB2/MVS lags behind the industry in providing trigger and stored procedure support. Rumor has it that the next release of DB2/MVS will include this support. However, IBM has not made any details available at this time.

Lorelle rants against multiple page posts. I completely agree with her a better alternative might be to split the big article in multiple posts instead of multiple pages. Why? Because then a single posts becomes a single unit to read and provides the entire context. In multiple pages it is quite possible that the page ends abruptly and expects one more click from the reader to complete the context, especially if the next page contains only 2 or 3 lines.
Many times, I've come to the "continues on next page†link and was determined to keep reading. I click the next page link and it features two sentences. Why bother forcing me to waste bandwidth to load a new page for only two sentences? Ridiculous time waster.
Pagination has been a topic of discussion a lot of times. Even in the search results using pagination numbers are not very useful, they do not indicate any quality of the results. Of course, pagination is here so that the data retrieval can be controlled. But there can be better alternatives.
With regards to a blog post, or I would extend this to even newspaper and magazine articles, it is better from a reader's perspective to keep a post on a single page. It is convenient, usable, consistent across various syndication formats and allows you to create a series of articles with continuous flow. Well said Lorelle.
