My grandpa Erik, my dad's dad, the first & oldest & greatest of the Blegvad illustrators, died on Tuesday morning. He was 90 years old. I should be so lucky to ever do a drawing one half as nice as one of his, or to ever have a moustache so fine.
There's a lot of family legends & proud stories about him but my favourite is this: he was illustrating a crowded naval scene for a magazine, and he used his wise judgement and great wit to put a tiny boat in the distance with flags that spelled 'fuck it' in semaphore. Somebody wrote in to complain and he was fired. That's my kinda illustrator! Hats off to you, sir.
These are some photographs I took of his study, in lieu of more words because if there's one thing I ain't it's a eulogist. Just - bye Grandpa. Thank you for the good times.

Happy birthday, Imbibe magazine! It's been a great first year, and here's a toast to many more. Issue 7 hit my mailbox yesterday, and I must confess that since it arrived the same day as this issue of Esquire, I didn't open Imbibe first.
(Even my wife saw Halle and said, "Wwwwow!")
But I closeted my hormones, stirred up martinis, grabbed a cigar, and repaired out back to enjoy the warm weather and browse Imbibe.
Number 7 profiles such bon vivants as "Colonel Joe" Rickey and "Beachbum" Berry before visiting a Dr Pepper plant in Texas (where the bottler still uses cane sugar instead of corn syrup in the product) and walking us through the farmers market in search of fresh produce for our drinks.
We pop off to Portugal to see how port is made, wing back to the U.S. to sample the coffee scene in cities around the country, and stop in West Oakland to visit an urban winemaker.
Finally, it's time to repair to Drinkboy's to crack open a lager and watch him cook up a batch of bitters. (I made his recipe a couple of months ago, and I'm very satisfied with them. Some day, I'll have to follow his advice and find a small oak cask to age them.)
One final comment on Imbibe… In her editor's note celebrating the anniversary, Karen Foley discusses how hard it is to get a magazine off the ground and thanks everyone who helped it along. She then says this:
We've also been fortunate to be embraced by thousands of loyal subscribers and readers who have become true champions for the magazine–the list grows by the minute, but Siobhan, our circulation manager, is still on a first-name basis with many of you, a novelty among national consumer publications, or any business for that matter.
I just want to point out, from my own experience, how enjoyable it is that the folks from Imbibe stay in touch with their readers.
So, again, happy birthday and here's to many more.

FALMOUTH — It took six months of negotiations and sometimes acrimonious debate, but the Town Council on Monday unanimously approved an agreement that allows a Route 1 business sign to stay put without any changes.
Councilors voted 6-0 for the consent agreement with TideSmart Global. Councilor Tony Payne recused himself because of a business relationship with TideSmart.
The only condition to the agreement was that Yarmouth resident Steve Woods, CEO of the company at 380 U.S. Route 1, pay a $500 fine to cover the administrative cost of negotiations between the town and his company.
Debate surrounding the TideSmart sign began after the Aug. 27, 2012, council meeting, where instead of discussing a proposed ordinance, councilors (with the exception of Payne, who recused himself) spent 45 minutes discussing Woods' business and calling for a "punitive fine."
The issue councilors focused on was that the word "Global" on the sign was one inch shorter than the five inches required by town ordinance. Additionally, there were claims that the pillars were two feet taller than the ordinance's six-foot requirement.
Woods said that when talks began in December to craft a consent agreement, he told Town Manager Nathan Poore and town staff that he was uninterested in an agreement that included a large fine, but that he was willing to pay the administrative costs of brokering the deal.
After coming out of executive session on Monday, Councilor Theresa Pierce said she was happy the town's attorney, staff and Woods were able to reach an agreement .
"I am pleased to move forward and put this in the past," she said.
Woods, a former independent candidate for U.S. Senate who is now a Democratic candidate for governor in 2014, agreed.
"My hope an expectation is that this matter is behind us now," he said Tuesday. "I'm excited to continue what I think is a positive and supportive relationship with Falmouth and the council and I look forward to many future positive meetings and positive plans working with the town."
Also Monday, Councilors Chris Orestis and Karen Farber presented a report that evolved from an open letter sent to the council by attorney Jonathan Berry. The letter included suggestions for making the town more business friendly.
The report identifies several areas where the town is making improvements to its ordinances and practices to make Falmouth a more attractive place to do business.
"What we were doing was, in essence, engaging in an exercise (to ensure) that we are being very thorough concerning zoning issues as it relates to Route 1 and the entire town," Orestis said. "(This is) an opportunity to engage and get more input and comment from the public and the business community."
He said that through the report the committee found that Falmouth has a very strong business environment, but there are areas that need examination.
Councilor Bonny Rodden said that while the report contains good suggestions, some of the "problems" are ones that are already being worked on. She cited things like a proposed change to the site plan review process, Route 1 infrastructure improvements, and zoning issues.
Orestis said that as the town moves forward with planning for its commercial districts, officials must take the time to be transparent and interactive, engaging the citizenry at all levels.
"Our town's commitment to proactive and positive engagement with the business community and working with town staff (will show that) Falmouth is open for business," he said.

Austria's Finest Naturally Brand Authentic Pumpkin Seeds From the Steiermark!
PLEASE NOTE: Supplies are limited and pricing changes daily according to availability.
What makes Austrian Pumpkin Seeds so unique?
Styrian pumpkins are unique because the seeds have lost their wooden shell due to a mutation about 100 years ago. Only a tiny silver-colored membrane protects the seed. This soft consistency of the seeds facilitates efficient pressing of the oil. The final product is a thick, dark green oil that has a nutty flavor and is used primarily as a salad oil, but also to refine soups and other dishes. Styrian Pumpkin Seed Oil has tremendous health benefits. Oddly enough, if you happen to have a very finicky dog, he or she will go crazy over its food if you drizzle a little bit of oil on its food.
Check out our recipes for Austrian Pumpkinseeds by clicking here!
In an article on Prevention.com, clinical herbal advisor Douglas Schar, DipPhyt, MCPP stated, "In the early 1900s, pumpkin seed was used to treat enlarged prostate symptoms and other urinary tract complaints."
"Pumpkin seeds contain protective compounds called phytosterols, which may be responsible for shrinking the prostate, says Schar. They also contain chemicals that may prevent some transformation oftestosterone into dihydrotestosterone (DHT). High levels of DHT are associated with enlarged prostate."
To help prevent BPH, Schar suggests eating a handful (about 1 ounce) of shelled pumpkin seeds three times a week. Pumpkin seeds are sold in health food stores and grocery stores.
The Austrian Pumpkin Seed Oil* and the Styrian Pumpkin Seeds* are the only Styrian delicacy that are really hard to come by, unless, of course, you can find a company to export the limited supply of product. OrganicUniverse.com works directly with the importer who has been representing the farms for several decades.
Make no mistake! Our Styrian pumpkin seeds are only grown in Austria's Steiermark and have the certification from the Austrian government. There are many other seeds floating around the supermarkets that originate from China but the quality is very clearly not up to par with the seeds from the Steiermark.
Please be advised that these seeds are for human consumption only. They are not to be used for germination. If you are looking for agricultural grade seeds, you must contact the Austrian government.
Please note: Do to numerous requests from our customers who wish to avoid the clear plastic packaging, all seeds are shipping in plain, brown paper.
(*OrganicUniverse reserves the right to adjust the price due to the fluctuations in the market)
Country of Origin: Austria.
Certified BIO: Biologische Landwirtschaft lacon Qualität, LACON Institute

While law enforcement applauds a decision by the state's highest court this week allowing police access to a suspect's cellphone "call list'' without a warrant, local defense attorneys see it as a "slippery slope" toward the erosion of a suspect's rights.
Although he hasn't reviewed the entire decision, Chelmsford-based defense attorney Thomas Wirtanen has a strong opinion about the state Supreme Judicial Court's ruling.
"Many rights and interests collide in this ruling,'' Wirtanen said. "The notions of any right to privacy or the requirements of the Fourth Amendment seem to be eroded by such a finding. It will require a careful reading to discern where and when probable cause or a reasonable suspicion of criminal activity will be required as to cellphones, or if such requirements are relaxed or eroded."
In its first decision on cellphone privacy for suspects, the SJC ruled Wednesday that police do not need a search warrant to see who a suspect under arrest has contacted on his cellphone.
But the SJC didn't address the contents of the phone, such as text messages and emails. Police only have access to the cellphone log.
Justice Margot Botsford, who penned the ruling, wrote that the broader issue of cellphone access is an issue "open for another day.''
Defense attorney Christopher Spring said he is "troubled'' by the SJC's decision.
"Both the majority opinion and the concurrence stress that it is a limited holding that addresses only phone numbers," Spring said. "However, it's an awfully slippery slope.
Given the justices' unanimous ruling in this case, Spring said, "It's hard to imagine how the court will be able to justify a warrantless search of the calling history, but not a warrantless search of text messages or emails.''
The decision was prompted by an East Boston drug arrest in 2011. The SJC ruled that the police had the right to examine the "call list'' on Demetrius A. Phifer's cellphone during his arrest on July 11, 2011, after police allegedly saw him get into a car with a known drug user and conduct what appeared to be a drug deal.
Boston police pulled over the car, got his cellphone number and checked it against the call list on Phifer's cellphone after his arrest.
The officers had probable cause to believe the recent call list on the cellphone would contain evidence relating to his arrest, Botsford wrote.
Responding to the SJC's decision, Middlesex District Attorney Gerard Leone wrote in a statement, "This is an important decision by the Court regarding the ability of law enforcement to do what should be available to them as investigators.''
Leone wrote that police require the ability to take investigative steps consistent with society's current communications.
"To the extent that more intrusive searches are desired or required, the Court has indicated that they would engage in a different level of scrutiny consistent with the level of intrusion, possibly requiring additional legal process and authority,'' Leone wrote.
As technology changes, he wrote, "It is vital for our laws to stay current and allow law enforcement to have appropriate access to all the tools needed to protect and serve our communities. Cell phones often contain evidence that can solve or even prevent violent crime, but only if investigators have rapid access to them."

Metal Shredding Facilities and Wastes
Managing Used Oil - See the latest info here
In 2006, DTSC established a certification program for individuals and businesses that process major appliances for scrap. Before they crush or bale an appliance, these individuals and businesses are required remove certain potentially harmful materials. Effective January 1, 2006, only a Certified Appliance Recycler (CAR) may remove these materials, known as Materials that Require Special Handling (MRSH).
For more information, visit the CAR page.
Hazardous Waste Management Project Documents DTSC posts on its Web site key documents related to entities that manage hazardous waste (generators; transporters; facilities permitted with RCRA or standardized permits; and other authorizations and notifications). If you can't find the project that you're looking for, check the site cleanup project documents list, EnviroStor, or call our Regulatory Assistance Officers at 800-728-6942.
Facilities Operating Under Variance
Many Unified Programs and participating agencies are members of UNIDOCS. If your local agency is a member of UNIDOCS, you may use their forms.
The Enforcement and Emergency Response Program (EERP) monitors hazardous waste transfer, storage, treatment and disposal facilities for illegal activity; including electronic manifest surveillance and monitoring of registered hazardous waste haulers; and takes appropriate enforcement action against hazardous waste handlers that violate hazardous waste requirements found through routine inspections, complaint investigations, and focused enforcement initiatives. EERP also provides compliance assistance.More about Compliance and Enforcement...
A land use restricted site is a property where DTSC has placed limits or requirements on future use of the property due to varying levels of cleanup possible, practical, or necessary at the site.
As required by Assembly Bill (AB) 871 and AB 2436, DTSC has developed and posted to its Web site Land Use Restricted Sites Lists to provide the public easy access to information on land use restrictions and affected sites.
Site Mitigation and Brownfields Reuse Program Facility Sites with Land Use Restrictions
The DTSC Site Mitigation and Brownfields Reuse Program (SMBRP) list includes sites cleaned up under the program's oversight and generally does not include current or former hazardous waste facilities that required a hazardous waste facility permit. The list represents land use restrictions that are active. Some sites have multiple land use restrictions. Not all land use restrictions are available at this time. DTSC will continue to update this list as documents become available.

Hazardous Waste Management Program Facility Sites with Deed / Land Use Restriction
The DTSC Hazardous Waste Management Program (HWMP) has developed a list of current or former hazardous waste facilities that have a recorded land use restriction at the local county recorder's office. The land use restrictions on this list were required by the DTSC HWMP as a result of the presence of hazardous substances that remain on site after the facility (or part of the facility) has been closed or cleaned up. The types of land use restriction include deed notice, deed restriction, or a land use restriction that binds current and future owners.
TheEnforcement and Emergency Response Program (EERP)oversees the technical implementation of the state's Unified Program--a consolidation of six environmental programs at the local level, and conducts triennial reviews of Unified Program agencies to ensure their programs are consistent statewide, conform to standards, and deliver quality environmental protection at the local level.

Global AIDS Epidemic: Getting Things Done
June 29, 2001
We cannot wait for governments to find the political will to deal with AIDS just through their own bureaucratic processes. The initiative must come from people in all areas of life -- including government, industry, the professions, and the general public. The world has more than enough resources to deal with HIV/AIDS (and also tuberculosis, malaria, and other infectious diseases); and there are millions of people who care and can help. The big shortage is of attractive, workable opportunities for channeling this concern into effective action.
For example, we heard from one U.S. HIV physician that he wanted to donate his vacations for several years to go to Africa or wherever he was needed, to train doctors in diagnosing and treating HIV disease. But he could find no program that had set up arrangements for doing so. (Some U.S. HIV doctors and researchers already work in Africa, but usually full time; we also need opportunities for doctors who want to maintain their current practice but could donate vacations, or work during other special occasions.)
For a different example, consider the great change in the worldwide discussion of treatment access and prices of medicines. Three years ago, almost everyone took antiretroviral prices of about $10,000 per patient per year, even in the poorest countries, for granted -- along with the death without treatment of almost everyone with HIV in Africa and other poor regions. The change could not have happened without the work of a fairly small number of activists around the world -- in ACT UP in the U.S. and France, Treatment Action Committee in South Africa, the Health GAP Coalition in the U.S., and other organizations. How did workable opportunities for involvement in this activism come into being? We do not know.
As key issues now move toward infrastructure, there will be more need than ever for both volunteer and professional involvement. Not everyone need work abroad. For example, if HIV doctors cannot find suitable programs through which to volunteer vacation time, then activists could find out why. Perhaps some organization already has such a program but is not well known. Or maybe someone needs to bring together funders with organizations like Doctors Without Borders, which already do this kind of work. Perhaps some medical organization already sends physicians abroad but has never worked in HIV before, and might be willing to start now. Volunteers need to research such possibilities and start bringing people together.
And of course almost all countries need lots of work in generating public pressure so that governments will have the political will for serious commitment in AIDS and other infectious diseases, and will develop the large-scale programs that require governments' involvement.
We greatly need the work of determined activists, volunteer or professional, with "people" skills or organizing skills, as well as those with medical or other technical training and experience. But this need does not automatically translate into workable roles that people can choose for themselves. Clearly we already have the need, the resources, and the people willing to help with AIDS and other infectious diseases. The big challenge is how to develop the human structures so that the resources get used and the work gets done.
Note: This writer has a personal Web site, http://www.communicationpractices.org, to explore the development of self-education practices for improving human relationships. We believe this work can contribute to the conscious development of social roles, helping to improve institutions as well.

The Thigh-Baring Silhouette We Might Not Ever Get Over
It's easy to see why so many fashionable femmes love Altuzarra's leg-baring skirts for spring. Not only are they perfect for a night out, thanks to their curve-hugging, silky fabrics, but the lightweight canvas versions work for more casual looks, too. Plus, the lace-up detailing allows you to show off just the right amount of skin (in the most flattering place) for any occasion!
Joseph Altuzarra showed just how versatile his thigh-slit skirts can be by taking them from day to night with the switch of a jacket or top and adjusting the lacing to show more or less leg.
Photo:Getty Images
Rihanna wore the first look from the collection, specifically the Chika Long-Sleeve Striped Blouse ($995) and Striped Tie-Slit Fold-Over Skirt ($1260) to celebrate the holidays with her RocNation family. The singer added personal touches to the look with lace-up Manolo Blahnik pumps and gold jewelry by Jennifer Meyer, Jacquie Aiche, and Mason Stanley.
Collins put a buttoned-up spin on the look at the CFDA/Vogue Fashion Fund Event at the Chateau Marmont last year, teaming the silky skirt with a tucked-in printed blouse.
Elizabeth Olsen mastered cool nighttime dressing at the premiere of her film Oldboy in New York, when she styled a draped dress from the collection (similar style here) with a metallic blazer (also by Altuzarra) and black slingback heels.
Altuzarra Canvas Thigh-Slit Midi Skirt ($795)
The great thing about this skirt is that it can follow you across all seasons. Layer it with chunky knits and silk blouses now, then pair it with a crop top or lightweight button-down during the warmer months.
Altuzarra Obi Lace-up Metallic Satin-Crepe Skirt ($2995)
In place of your standard LBD, wear this skirt at night with the last couple laces untied for extra sex appeal.
Altuzarra Lotus Lyocell-Blend Drape Dress ($3450)
Pair this dress with a metallic blazer to channel Olsen's show-stopping evening look.
The Reformation Empress Skirt ($158)
Wear this skirt with neutrals, such as a gray silk camisole and nude sandals, for a feminine and subtly sexy daytime look.
Kill City Lace-Up Neckline Tank Dress ($122)
This dress is begging to be worn with a motorcycle jacket for the perfect model-off-duty look.
Helmut Lang Print Asymmetrical Twist Skirt ($265)
Try this skirt with a front-tucked white shirt and combat boots for a comfortable-meets-fashion-forward look.
Won Hundred Aurica Skirt ($460)
If there was ever a thigh slit that was office-appropriate, this is it.
Nasty Gal Scene Stealer Sequin Midi Skirt ($68)
Dress this sequin stunner down with a vintage t-shirt and minimal, heeled sandals, and you'll be ready to turn in your black mini skirt for good.
New Look Leather Look Side Split Pencil Skirt ($28)
This skirt shows just the right amount of thigh, plus it's a steal!

Would you check out the size of that paw? Even as a baby, it was clear he would soon be shopping at the big and tall store.
His doggie brother Charlie, our labrador retriever, five years his senior, was named after Charlie Brown. We wanted to stay in keeping with the Peanuts theme, but this dog was certainly no Snoopy. Or Pigpen. Or Linus. Bruder piped up that Snoopy had a fat brother in a fur hat and that his name was Olaf. Lightbulbs dinged over the heads of all family members and it was decided instantly. He was Olaf.
When he was still a baby, we took a trip to the Oregon coast, but since we couldn't imagine leaving him in a kennel, we rented an RV and he came along for the ride.
We learned on that trip that Olaf detested water, wouldn't even step paw in it, but would happily run along the beach. Basically anything with his people, he was game.
Here he is during his gangly teenage stage in the Olympic Mountains with the kids. I've always loved mountain photos of Olaf. Being a Bernese Mountain Dog, it just seemed fitting. If we could put the kids in lederhosen and get them yodeling, the scene would be perfect.
I can't tell you how many times I heard, "Holy cow! What a cool dog!" Or, "Is that some type of Saint Bernard?" Or my favorite, "Oh, I know what he is! He's one of those Burmese Mountain Dogs, right?" I always commended the proud individual on their canine knowledge, but inwardly laughed at the image of Olaf in his thick black coat, lounging on the tropical shores of Burma.
Olaf was always gentle and kindhearted. Never once in his life did he show the slightest hint of aggression. Our lab will growl, as most dogs would, if say, a raccoon saunters onto our porch, but never Olaf. Not a single growl ever escaped his lips.

Spray Foam Insulation Cost in Pomona Park, Florida
How Much Will Spray Foam Insulation Cost?
Installing spray foam insulation in your Pomona Park home or office doesn't have to be expensive. We are commonly asked about the price of spray foam insulation vs. other types of insulation. The answer depends on several factors. You'll want to know the square footage of the area(s) to be covered, the type and quality of spray foam and the cost of labor. Many people use a combination of two types of insulation. Another thing to consider when determining your costs is the fact that you'll immediately see savings on energy usage. When you call Elite Power Pro's LLC for a spray foam installation price in Pomona Park Florida, we'll take a look at the size and scope of the work and present you with a written quote for materials and labor. Just call us at (352) 254-8054 for a free, no obligation quote on installing spray foam in your Pomona Park home.

I've never felt the feeling of eminent death. Granted there have been times when I've been scared, and maybe the thought of death passed threw my mind, but I never really thought that I was actually going to die. Flying into Mammoth this past Thursday I honestly thought I was going to die. As we plummeted down from 15,000 feet to the runway through terrible turbulence, all I could think about was what I would do differently if I made it down to earth alive. And when I did make it to earth (That's right, I didn't die. So suck it haters.) I realized that I was going to have as much fun as humanly possible. And thankfully it was easy to achieve that goal because the WCI at Mammoth Mountain was one hell of a good time.
The WCI has been a Mammoth spring institution for the past 11 years. While it has gone through many transformations and changes, one thing still remains the same —it's one of the best spring weekends in snowboarding. And this year was no different.
This year instead of having a two day contest, the WCI was compressed into a big one-night event. People made their way to the base of the Canyon Lodge right as the sun was starting to set for the Eddie Wallride contest. The Eddie Wallride is the Olympics of wallride contests. Riders who were killing it were Justin Fronius with his huge backflips to fakie, Mason Aguirre with his sick backside 540's, and Seth Hill who was riding with some pretty reckless style. The top three dude's of the day though were Chris Grenier, Sam Taxwood, and Jaeger Bailey. Chris ended up in third place, he did some crazy moves such as a switch backside rodeo, and a one-footed crippler. In second place was Sam Taxwood who did one of the sickest andrechts that I've personally ever seen. And in first place was Jaeger Bailey. Jaeger did more-or-less every wallride trick imaginable. He killed it, and it was cool to see him get the win. Scott Blum also got the best trick award with an insane frontside handplant, which he only had to try like three times. It was sick.
After the sun set, and the Eddie Wallride ended, it was time for the big-air event. The WCI big-air event was way different than any other big-air contest because in this contest they had skiers and snowboarders paired up together. They also had to hit the jump at the same time. As lame as skiing is, it was really cool to see the dudes hit the jump at the same time, and it seemed like the dudes were actually feeding off each other. Sage Kotsenburg did a sick 1260 and won the best trick award and 2500 bucks. Other standouts were Chas Guldemond's switch backside 180's, and just watching Lonnie Kauk hit a jump. In the end though, it was Ole Christian Hagan in 2nd, and Chas Guldemond in 1st. Chas killed it and fully deserved the win. That dude really knows how to jump.
I'm really glad that I didn't die in a plane crash on Thursday, because I would've had to have missed the WCI. And that would have totally sucked because this event was seriously awesome.

Motor Spring, medium firm. Silver, 10 ounce rate. 2WD off road racing.
In brushed motors, brushes conduct power to the commutator. The brushes are held in place by springs. By changing the springs' tension to increase or decrease the pressure of the brushes against the commutator, you can adjust the revolutions of the motor. Simply put, harder spring pressure increases friction and slows down the commutator.
In general, the less tension placed on the brush, the more RPM (top speed). The more tension, the more torque (faster acceleration).
Spring tension is measured by ounce rate. The lower ounce rate generates less pressure than a higher ounce rate. Choose a lower ounce rate for slightly more RPM, and a higher rate for more torque. However, harder pressure will hasten commutator wear.
The springs give only a slight range of adjustment. If you want greater changes to RPM, for instance, you will still switch to an armature of fewer turns.

Elia Kazan was one of the consummate filmmakers of the 20th century, directing such classics as 1951's "A Streetcar Named Desire," 1954's "On the Waterfront" and 1955's "East of Eden." He won three Oscars, five Tony Awards and four Golden Globes.
Actors such as Marlon Brando, James Dean, Carroll Baker, Karl Malden, Patricia Neal, Terry Moore and Andy Griffith blossomed under his direction. The actors who worked with him adored -- and still adore -- him.
But not everybody adores him, because of his appearance before the House Committee on Un-American Activities in 1952, when he informed on eight of his friends from his Group Theatre days in the 1930s who, like him, had once belonged to the Communist Party.
When Kazan received an honorary Oscar in 1999, four years before his death, the wounds from his testimony opened once again.
Film historian and Brooklyn College professor Foster Hirsch hopes people can put aside their political feelings toward Kazan to explore the brilliance of his talent.
"I think his films from the 1950s, the good ones, are the best-acted films I have ever seen," said Hirsch. "I don't think there is an expiration date on this great acting. 'Baby Doll' and 'On the Waterfront' are like the best-acted films ever made."
Both of those movies are included in the American Cinematheque's "Waterfronts and Streetcars: An Elia Kazan Retrospective," which begins Thursday and concludes Sunday evening at the Egyptian Theatre in Hollywood.
"He created virtually a new acting style, which was the style of the Method," Hirsch said of Kazan. "The Method allowed for the actors to create a great depth of psychological realism. It just went deeper than acting had done before."
Hirsch will be conducting discussions with actors from Kazan films at each program, which opens Thursday with 1957's dazzling "A Face in the Crowd," starring Griffith in his film debut as Lonesome Rhodes, an Arkansas derelict who becomes a TV sensation while crushing everyone around him. The second feature is the rarely seen 1960 drama "Wild River," with Montgomery Clift as a Tennessee Valley Authority representative who comes to a rural area to build a dam.
Neal, who co-stars in "A Face in the Crowd," is scheduled to be on hand to talk about the film. Kazan cast her (she portrays the small-town radio personality who discovers Rhodes) after directing her in a scene at the Actors Studio in New York.
"He was very good," Neal recalled. "He was an actor and he knew how we acted. He would come and talk to you privately. I liked him a lot."
Moore goes so far as to call him her best friend. The two became close when she played the feisty daughter of an Eastern Bloc circus manager in 1953's "Man on a Tightrope," which screens Friday, along with Kazan's Oscar-winning masterpiece "On the Waterfront," for which Brando won his first Oscar.
When Moore arrived to meet Kazan in New York for the audition, "I was just in jeans and a flight jacket. I went into the interview and all the other girls were all dressed up in their little cotton dresses. Kazan walked out into the ante room and said, 'You, come here.'
"We went out the door and we walked up and down the lot. He said, 'What can you do?' My agent had met me at the airport and told me the character rides horses and she's real mean. So I said, 'I can fly. I can break horses and I'm real mean.' "
Kazan hired her on the spot, Moore said. "He made you feel better than you thought you could be. I never had another director that ever touched him. I was spoiled for life."
Baker is expected at the Cinematheque on Saturday for the screening of "Baby Doll," for which she received an Oscar nomination for her seminal performance as a thumb-sucking child bride living in the South.
Kazan, said Baker, "would find out if your life was like the character or if there was a divergence between certain things in the character and you. He would say, 'Can't you find something in your life that was similar?' He was the best director with actors."
His last great film, 1963's "America America,' screens Sunday. The Oscar-nominated epic is based on the story of Kazan's uncle, a young Greek man living in Turkey, circa 1900, who becomes obsessed with coming to the United States. Not only is it his most personal film, but it was also Kazan's favorite.
Appearing at that screening will be cinematographer Haskell Wexler and actors Lou Antonio and Stathis Giallelis, the Greek actor who plays Kazan's uncle.
Kazan's secret, said Giallelis, was that he made actors feel comfortable. "He also taught you," he added. "Every day I was learning and he told me he was learning too. He was always very open to people's suggestions. He would tell me, 'I want this to come out in this scene.' I was quite free to do what I wanted to do. If he didn't like it, he would tell me, 'This isn't quite what I wanted.' He gave me a lot of freedom, but he had a lot of control. He knew what he wanted from each actor."

Since 1983, James J. Jones has walked-the-walk, educating himself and others on the various and everchanging ins and outs of Internet Marketing and Internet Publishing. Using a combination of creativity, hard work, intelligence and tenacity, James has found that one can find success and financial reward while enjoying the fun and freedom of being self-employed.
The Net Results is a company located in Charlotte, North Carolina, that is dedicated to your success as an internet marketer. It is headed by James J Jones - who has been in the online marketing business since 1983 - and no, that's not a misprint. Before Google, Yahoo, or any of the like, there were Bulletin Board Systems (BBSes). BBSes allowed people to dial into a "host" computer and interact with other users who were also dialed in (usually via modem.) Once "online" people could play games, download files, send email to other users and even post ads in the classified section.
Back in 1983 James decided to use the Classified Ads section on a Mt Airy, NC BBS to advertise a litter of Cocker Spaniel puppies. He ended up selling one puppy as a result of that ad - and this was the start of his online career. Later on James branched out into selling computer supplies via BBSes, and it was then that he discovered the power of using email marketing to follow up with his customers. He went full-time in 2002, and by 2007 The Net Results was born, which soon released Micro Niche Finder, our flagship software. From then on The Net Results has developed numerous other softwares and products, to help Internet Marketers on their journey.

Good news for Apple, and its investors.
Two analysts have notes out this morning about improving iPhone 5 supply in the U.S.
Gene Munster of Piper Jaffray, and Walter Piecyk at BTIG both say the wait for an iPhone 5 from Verizon or AT&T has come down.
Piecyk says the wait for an iPhone from Verizon is just 8 days. At AT&T its 3-5 days. And at Sprint its 7 days.
Gene Munster's team, meanwhile, has been making nightly checks on the ability to pick up an iPhone 5 in-store at Apple retail stores. For the first time, more than 20% of the stores report availability for next day pick up for the Verizon and AT&T iPhone 5. As this ramps, it suggests that Apple's overall ability to manufacture iPhone 5s is increasing.
One of the things that has been dragging on Apple's stock is questions about its ability to make enough iPhone 5s to meet demand. These reports suggest that as Apple approaches the holiday sales period, it will have enough iPhones to meet demand, and therefore should be able to beat analyst estimates of 45-46 million iPhones for the quarter.

Look Ahead: Jeff Dunham
Jeff Dunham has found a way to make stereotypes laughable: The internationally acclaimed comedian uses puppets. You can't help but laugh, sometimes uncomfortably, when Dunham has to keep the politically incorrect and obnoxious Peanut in line, especially when talking immigration with Jose Jalapeno on a Stick; and Walter the Grumpy Retiree reflects, "What happens in D.C., stays on YouTube." Why go: We need a laugh after so many recent tragedies. Reconsider: Puppets are like clowns to you: scary. 7:30 p.m. Dec. 27 at Allstate Arena, 6920 N.

It is important to warn children, without overly alarming them, about disasters. Tell children that a
disaster is something that could hurt people or cause damage. Explain that nature sometimes provides
"too much of a good thing" – fire, rain, or wind. Talk about things that could happen during a storm, like the fact that the lights or phone might not work. Tell children there are many people who can help them during a disaster, so that they will not be afraid of firemen, policemen, paramedics, or other emergency officials.
How to call for help.
When to use
emergency numbers.
To call the family contact if they are separated.
The most important role a parent can play in an emergency situation is to stay calm. Children of all ages can easily pick up on their parents' fears and anxieties. In a disaster, they'll look to you for help and for clues on how to act. If you react with alarm, a child may become more scared. If you seem overcome with a sense of loss, a child may feel their losses more strongly. Experts agree that you should be honest with your children and explain what's going on. Just be sure to base the amount of information and level of detail on what's appropriate for their age level.
Children depend on daily routines: They wake up, eat breakfast, go to school, and play with friends. When emergencies or disasters interrupt this routine, children may become anxious; not want parents out of their sight/refuse to go to school or child care; or feel guilty that they caused the disaster by something they said or did. Children's fears also may stem from their imagination, and you should take these feelings seriously. Your words and actions can provide reassurance. When talking with your child, be sure to present a realistic picture that is both honest and manageable.
The event will happen again.
Someone will be injured or killed
They will be separated from the family
They will be left alone
Children may be upset over the loss of a favorite toy, blanket, teddy bear or other items; undergo a personality change–from being quiet, obedient andcaring to loud, noisy and aggressive or from outgoing to shy and afraid; have nightmares or be afraid to sleep alone or with the light off; become easily upset, cry or whine; lose trust in adults because the adults in their life were unable to control the disaster; or revert to younger behavior such as
bedwetting and
thumb sucking.
Parents should remember that the psychological effects of a natural disaster don't go away once the emergency has passed. Children can suffer from
nightmares or other problems for years after a disaster. Children are better able to cope with a traumatic event if parents, teachers and other adults support and help them with their experiences.Help should start as soon as possible after the event. Some children may never show distress because they don't feel upset, while others may not give evidence of being upset for several weeks or even months. Even if children do not show a change in behavior, they may still need your help. Parents should be on the lookout for signs that their kids need some extra
Talk with children about how they are feeling and listen without judgment. Let them know they can have their own feelings, which might be different than others. Let children take their time to figure things out and to have their feelings. Don't rush them or pretend that they don't think or feel as they do.
Keep the family together as much as possible. While you look for housing and assistance, try to keep the family together and make children a part of what you are doing. Otherwise, children could get anxious and worry that their parents won't return.
Calmly and firmly explain the situation. As best as you can, tell children what you know about the disaster. Explain what will happen next. For example, say,
"Tonight, we will all stay together in the shelter." Get down to the child's eye level and talk to them.
Encourage children to talk. Let them talk about the disaster and ask questions as much as they want. Encourage children to describe what they're feeling. Help them learn to use words that express their feelings, such as happy, sad, angry, mad and scared. Just be sure the words fit their feelings–not yours.
Listen to what they say. If possible, include the entire family in the discussion. Reassure them that the disaster was not their fault in any way. Assure fearful children that you will be there to take care of them. Children should not be expected to be brave or tough, or to
"not cry."
Include children in recovery activities. Give children chores that are their responsibility. This will help children feel they are part of the recovery. Having a tasks help children feel empowered and give them a way to feel in control and useful.
Go back as soon as possible to former routines. Maintain a regular schedule for children.
Let them have some control, such as choosing what outfit to wear or what meal to have for dinner.
Allow special privileges such as leaving the light on when they sleep for a period of time after the disaster.
Find ways to emphasize to the children that you love them.
Once you arrive at a shelter, hotel, or a relative's home, disaster related TV programs should be restricted.
News coverage of disasters—especially if children see their own town or school on TV–can be traumatic to children of all ages. If children watch TV coverage of the disaster, parents should watch with them and talk about it afterwards.
Encourage children to draw or paint pictures of how they feel about their experiences. Write a story together of the event. You might start with: Once upon a time there was a terrible ______ and it scared us all ______. This is what happened: ______.End the story with how things are getting better.
It's important for all family members to know how to react in an emergency, because when a disaster strikes, you may need to act quickly. Discuss possible disaster plans with your children–in a very general way–so that they will know what to do in various situations. For example, if you live in a part of the country that is prone to tornadoes, it is important for your children to know what to do if a tornado is coming. Remember that it is possible that you and your children may be in different places when a disaster strikes; for example at school and work. Also, older children may be home alone when faced with an emergency.
You can create a Family Disaster Plan by taking some simple steps. It's important for all family members to know how to react in an emergency because the best protection is knowing what to do.
Talk with your children about the dangers of disasters that are likely in your area and how to prepare for each type.
Make sure they know where to go in your home to stay safe during an
hurricane, or other disasters likely for your area.
Teach your child how to recognize danger signals. Make sure your child knows what smoke detectors, fire alarms and local community warning systems (horns, sirens) sound like and what to do when they hear them.
Explain to children how and when to call for help. Keep emergency phone numbers (your local Emergency Phone Number List) where family members can find them.
Pick an out-of-state family contact person who family members can "check-in" with if you are separated during an emergency. For children who are old enough help them to memorize the person's name and phone number, or give them a copy of the emergency list included in the kit.
Agree on a meeting place away from your home
(a neighbor or relative's house or even a street corner) where you would get together if you were separated in an emergency. Give each family member an emergency list with the name, address and phone number of the meeting place. For children who are old enough help them to memorize the person's name, address and phone number.
Put together a disaster supplies kit for your family.
Practice your Family Disaster Plan every six months so that everyone will remember what to do when in an emergency.
It's important for all family members to know how to react in an emergency because the best protection is knowing what to do.
Assemble a special "Get Ready Kit: for kids. Explain to your children that you might need to leave your house during a disaster and sleep somewhere else for a while.
A few favorite books, crayons, and paper.
Favorite small toys like dolls or action figures.
A board game.
A desk of cards.
A puzzle.
A favorite stuffed animal.
A favorite blanket or pillow.
A picture of your family and pets.
A box with special treasures that will help you feel safe.
Most shelters can't take pets, so plan what to do in case you have to evacuate. Call your local Humane Society to ask if there is an animal shelter in your area. Prepare a list of kennels and veterinarians who could shelter them in an emergency. Keep a list of "pet friendly" motels outside your area.
Every family should have disaster supplies in their home. Needed supplies include food, water and other things that you might need in an emergency. In a hurricane, earthquake, or
flood, you could be without electricity for a week or more, or the water supply may be polluted. There also may be times, such as during a flood or a heavy winter storm, that you might not be able to leave your house for a few days. Your family may never need to use your disaster supplies, but it's always best to be prepared. To make getting these items fun, you could have a family "Scavenger Hunt" and have family members see how many of these items they can find in your home.

Tim Brown
Tim Brown (born 1973 in Newport, Kentucky) has been the publisher of The Last Word, a Kentucky-based left-leaning populist zine, since 1993. In the zine community he is perhaps most noted for his ill-tempered conflicts on Usenet (against Jim Goad and others) that resulted from the repeated deletions of his messages that contained the text of his zine.
Brown was also known on Usenet for boasting of being expelled from four schools. He also planned on seeking elected office as an independent.
Brown was arrested in 1995 for trespassing when he tried to distribute the print edition of The Last Word at Northern Kentucky University. However, he was acquitted after proving that the law was selectively enforced because of his left-leaning political views, and that he was using the library for a legitimate purpose by browsing the career guides. (Ironically, Brown was also a librarian at a public library.)
In 2005, Brown authored the book The Fight That Never Ends, a memoir describing severe bullying he suffered throughout elementary and high school (which led up to his repeated expulsions). Despite its timely subject matter, the book has been completely ignored by the mainstream media.

CFO Brings Philosophy of Change to MicrosoftBy Reuters - | Posted 2008-02-08 Print
Microsoft's decision in 2005 to hire Chris Liddell, a New Zealander working in the paper industry, to fill the company's open job of chief financial officer seemed like an odd choice.
SEATTLE, Feb 8 (Reuters) - Microsoft's decision in 2005 to hire Chris Liddell, a New Zealander working in the paper industry, to fill the company's open job of chief financial officer seemed like an odd choice.
With no background in technology, Liddell joined Microsoft from International Paper at a time when investors were clamoring for the company to loosen the purse strings on its substantial cash holdings and revitalize a stagnant stock.
"If you look at the odds of a New Zealand paper guy coming into Microsoft and prospering, you wouldn't give it a snowball's chance in hell," said Charlie Songhurst, a Microsoft general manager for strategy and M&A who works closely with Liddell.
Once the ultimate outsider, Liddell is taking a leading role in changing Microsoft from within.
In about three years, he has helped transform Microsoft from a miser that socked away money for a rainy day into a spendthrift, and he has successfully challenged the philosophy that Microsoft, given enough time and resources, should build its own technology to take on all comers.
Liddell has completed nearly 50 deals since joining the company in May 2005. His boldest move yet, Microsoft's $41.9 billion offer to buy Yahoo, would use up nearly all of a legendary cash stockpile Liddell inherited.
Those reserves are sure to grow again, but now Liddell wants to issue debt for the first time in Microsoft's 33-year history.
"I believe in being disciplined but aggressive," Liddell described himself by e-mail. Colleagues see a quiet, intense counterpoint to Chief Executive Steve Ballmer's animated aggressiveness, a former rugby player who prepares obsessively and routinely works 100 hours a week.
Avoiding the turf wars that have claimed other outside executives who joined Microsoft, Liddell has won the confidence and the ear of Ballmer and the company's board, and is known as one of the few senior executives ready to meet the rank-and-file for a drink after work.
Analysts praise Liddell for his clean and simple earnings presentations, while Microsoft employees say he is militant in his view that PowerPoint slides should be uncluttered.

Every city girl needs an escape. It doesn't always have to involve a plane ride or a visa…a quick car ride away from the city smog will suffice. Although jetting off to an exotic, far-off locale would be wonderful, sometimes it's just not plausible. So you are stuck either dreaming of distant lands, or grabbing your backpack and trying to rediscover familiar terrain closer to home. I choose action over inaction…so C and I did just that.
We spent a fun and relaxing weekend outside Manila's hubbub, in the city of Tagaytay. Tagaytay is set upon a ridge overlooking Taal Lake and Taal Volcano, a volcano nestled in the middle of the lake. The views are great, and the air clean (compared to Manila) and pleasantly cool. I, and probably most of the city of Manila, have no doubt been there a ton of times, but it is still a nice place to go. Aside from the views and escaping the city heat, you've got restaurants to visit, roadside stalls filled with fruits and flowers, and small farms selling organic herbs and vegetables.
We set off early Saturday morning to get there in time for one of my favorite breakfasts in Tagaytay – Humphrey's Muesli at Breakfast at Antonio's. I know, strange to travel so far for something quite ordinary…but I love its milky simplicity and that is all the reason I need. We also visited Manos Greek Taverna, a cozy Greek restaurant we had been to before. Manos is a charming Greek man and he uses a lot of products his mother (c'mon, you've gotta love this guy) sends him from Greece…including his own olive oil produced by his olive trees back home! I had the Chicken ala Corfu which was redolent with cinnamon and cloves, its flavor sweet and sour care of a veritable mountain of raisins and the juice of calamansi. Although there is no sugar added, the raisins make this dish very sweet…for someone like me it's great, but if you are not into sweet in your savories give this one a pass. Instead, have what C did: Psari Skaras, a grilled tilapia marinated and basted (by Manos himself!) with a mix of olive oil, calamansi & lemon, and oregano from Greece. Sounds simple, but it was amazingly delicious! It was a tilapia that tasted of Greece…that is the best way I can describe it. Manos' grilled items are his specialties.
We also had our fill of the local specialties like tawilis (a small freshwater sardine found only in Taal Lake…nowhere else in the world!) and bulalo (bone marrow soup). We warmed ourselves with steaming coffee overlooking the lake and caldera. We browsed through little antique shops and bought local coffee beans and homemade bread. We bought fruits from roadside stalls…sweet-smelling pineapples that seem to grow wild along the countryside.
On our way back home we discovered a small garden called Jardinero's (which means gardener's), growing and selling its organic produce. Their bounty included various salad greens (including arugula, hooray!), flat leaf parsley, kohlrabi, squash, baby carrots, rosemary, different kinds of mint, rau rǎm (or Vietnamese coriander), chives, tarragon, cilantro, oregano, spinach, and more that I am sure I'm forgetting. Everything freshly picked as you buy them. They also sell native tomatoes, onions, and ginger. They even had cinnamon bark which they get from the province of Nueva Ecija. As if things couldn't be more perfect, on top of all these fresh vegetables, they also sold chicharon! Out of place yes, but maybe a sign telling me to return? I guess it is sufficiently clear that I was quite pleased to come upon them!
A short while after, we stopped by the stall of Toscana Farms where I bought gorgeous red capsicums which I will roast and make into a salad. As I was waiting for the lady to prepare my change I noticed a small potted thyme plant. I had been looking for thyme everywhere, and all of my usual sources have been without for a while now, so I snapped it up. Never mind that I live in a flat with no balcony or plant box. At worst, I will at least have some thyme for a couple of dishes. And who knows, perhaps it will survive…sigh, I can dream…

Ladies & gentlemen, this is NOT your captain speaking!
The captain is going to be busy for a little while and better than stopping our journey he prefered to set things to "auto-pilot".
During the next few weeks, we'll continue to fly around but we'll make things more simple with "digital" instead of our usual vinyl trips. Things will get back to normal as soon as possible...
This week we get some Bollywood music from the 70's, 100 tracks best of from a DVD (cut in 7 parts). Today is PART 2.
Thanks for flying with KTK

Independent coffee shops of Boston
Get your caffeine fix
Almost every street in Boston is home to a Dunkin' Donuts or Starbucks (or both), but neighborhood coffee shops also have their own niche in our beloved city.
Why not try one of these local caffeine suppliers? Meet a friend, study, or just sip away the afternoon. Here is a sampling of our favorite small and independent coffee shops around Boston — you'll be buzzing in no time.
Pictured: Lattes from Wired Puppy.
Crema Cafe
College friends Marley Brush and Liza Baer-Kahn studied abroad together in Europe and fell in love with the cafe culture. "It was something that we had talked about as a pipe dream, so when the opportunity presented itself, we knew we had to take advantage,'' Brush said about opening the cafe.
On the menu: The Red Crema, a tea latte made with rooibos tea, honey, and cinnamon.
27 Brattle St., Cambridge, 617-876-2700, www.cremacambridge.com
Boston Common Coffee Co.
When owners Peter Femino and Tony Massari opened the original BCC six years ago, they wanted to create a "middle of the line'' coffee shop that served a medium roast and fresh, homemade breakfast food. It seems to be a successful formula: The business partners now have three Boston locations.
On the menu: The SaltalaMocchia, a salted caramel mocha latte, named for Red Sox catcher Jarrod Saltalamacchia.
97 Salem St., 10 High St., 515 Washington St., Boston, www.bostoncommoncoffee.com
Zume's Coffee House
The art on the walls of this Charlestown cafe changes every three months. The current exhibit, by Amy Rizzico, consists of abstract mixed media.
On the menu: The Eggnog latte topped with homemade whipped cream and nutmeg.
221 Main St., Charlestown, 617-242-0038, zumescoffeehouse.com
Equal Exchange Café
"Since we buy directly from small scale coffee producers, we put a lot of care and energy into the roast,'' said owner Meghan Hubbs, who helped open the cafe in 2009. Everything sold at Equal Exchange is fair trade and organic, and the coffee is roasted right in West Bridgewater.
On the menu: The menu changes monthly, but as the temperature rises, try the iced green tea this summer.
226 Causeway St., Boston, 617-372-8777, www.equalexchangecafe.com
Simon's Coffee Shop
Everything sold at this Cambridge establishment is local, and all of the shop's coffee beans come from distributors in Arlington and Acton. "We focus on brewing, rather than on one cup to go or a 'push the button' type of coffee,'' owner Simon Yu said.
On the menu: Cold brewed thai iced tea.
1736 Massachusetts Ave., Cambridge, 617-497-7766
Wired Puppy
The original Wired Puppy is in Provincetown — Brooks Firth opened the Boston location in November 2009. "It feels like my home away from home,'' she said of the spot, which sees an eclectic mix of regulars, Newbury Street shoppers, and tourists.
On the menu: The rooibos latte is on our must try list — it's a South African red tea made with steamed milk, cinnamon, and honey, and can be served either warm or iced. And, grab a muffin, baked fresh daily.
250 Newbury St., Boston. 857-366-4655, www.wiredpuppy.com
"I had the desire to do something different, to get out of the corporate setting,'' owner Alvin Tsang said. The coffees and teas he serves come from Mem, a Somerville-based company, and Fazenda, a Needham-based company.
On the menu: The Mint Chip Latte, flavored with peppermint, can be served iced or hot.
380 Washington St., Brighton. 617-783-4514, www.cafenation.com
Ula Cafe
"We both lived in Jamaica Plain and felt that JP could really use a community, neighborhood-oriented coffee shop,'' said co-owner Kate Bancroft. Bancroft says she and business partner Korinn Koslofsky have achieved this goal: "I've actually seen a lot of neighbors meeting each other in here for the first time.''
On the menu: Made with brown sugar and cinnamon, the Café Cubano sounds irresistible.
284 Amory St., Jamaica Plain, 617-524-7890, www.ulacafe.com
P.S. Gourmet Coffee
Owner Jim Fallon estimates that 90 percent of the customers at his 25-year-old South Boston shop are regulars and local residents. Don't expect a pump of vanilla or hazelnut from these baristas. "Our forte in here, especially compared to the big chains, is that we fresh brew all our flavors,'' Fallon explained.
On the menu: The P.S. Special, a mocha made with hazelnut coffee and cinnamon.
106 Dorchester St., South Boston, 617-269-4020
Flat Black Coffee Company
Named after the Australian slang term for espresso, this cafe offers 24 types of coffee. The beans — imported from countries like Honduras, Rwanda, and Haiti — are roasted in Dorchester.
On the menu: The Flat White (pictured), is an Australian style latte. So what exactly does that mean? It's stronger, and creamier, than the traditional American latte.
50 Broad St., 100 High St., & 260 Franklin St., Boston. 1170 Washington St. & 1906 Dorchester Ave., Dorchester, www.flatblackcoffeecompany.com
Diesel Café and Bloc 11
Tucker Lewis and Jennifer Park own these Somerville coffee stops. At Bloc 11, a bank turned cafe in Union Square, you can sip your coffee inside a vault. Grab a cue stick with your latte for a game of pool at Diesel Cafe in Davis Square (pictured).
On the menu: Snag one of Bloc 11's mint-flavored mochas.
Bloc 11: 11 Bow St., Somerville. 617-623-0000, bloc11.com, Diesel Café: 257 Elm St., Somerville, 617-629-8717, diesel-cafe.com
1369 Coffee House
"One of our main missions is about community, and considering the coffee shop a third place between home and work for people to live another part of their lives,'' general manager Annabel Gill said.
On the menu: The London Fog, an Earl Grey tea mixed with steamed milk and vanilla syrup.
1369 Cambridge St., 757 Massachusetts Ave., Cambridge, 1369coffeehouse.com
Espresso Love
Espresso Love started in Martha's Vineyard and expanded into Boston in 2011. With coffee, sandwiches, burgers, and salads, Espresso Love is good for a quick cup of java or a full-fledged meal.
On the menu: Try the gingerbread latte, made with a double shot of espresso, gingerbread flavoring, and steamed milk.
33 Broad St., Boston. 857-284-7462. www.espressolove.com/boston

- Hi. Welcome to my site; my name is Karen. I'm an avid scrap-booker, card-maker, and paper-crafter. I have been scrapbooking for about 12 years and I am just as excited now as when I first started. Scrapbooking is the instrument I use to record some of the greatest and most special moments of my family's life. I love buying patterned paper, ribbon and embellishments, taking pictures of my son, teaching scrapbooking and hosting workshops. This hobby continues to be an obsession for me and it continues to challenge me to be a better scrapper. I love the escape that scrapbooking affords me and the fun it has brought into my world. I have one child, a son; he's 15 years old and he is my favorite scrapbook subject. I hope that you enjoyed my site and will visit again soon.
