After more than a decade coaching basketball across the South Shore, Matt DellaBarba is guiding his own high school varsity program for the first time as the new head coach of the Plymouth South girls basketball team.
PLYMOUTH – After more than a decade coaching basketball across the South Shore, Matt DellaBarba is guiding his own high school varsity program for the first time as the new head coach of the Plymouth South girls basketball team.
"I'm ecstatic to be here," says DellaBarba, who welcomed 34 candidates to tryouts this week. "I think the program has a lot of potential. I'm not sure what our record will be in the first couple of years, but we're putting some things in place to get people excited about what we're doing."
DellaBarba comes to the Panthers after serving as assistant girls basketball coach at Silver Lake. His resume also includes stints as assistant boys basketball coach at Silver Lake, Hull and Whitman-Hanson. He has also coached AAU basketball for the past 20 years.
"I know a number of girls [at Plymouth South] through AAU," he said. "I love their potential, the fact that it's a new school with a beautiful gym and it's the opportunity to become a head coach. The time just felt right."
The Panthers have struggled in recent years, which DellaBarba believes is due in part to low numbers at the youth level. "I think [the struggles] have been due to a combination of things, although it's probably too early for me to give a direct answer," he said. "But I know that a lot of other sports are huge [at Plymouth South], and we've been working to drive interest in the youth program."
So far, so good, he said. Thirteen freshmen showed up for the opening day of tryouts, nearly double the number from last winter. "For the second year in a row we will have a freshmen, JV and varsity team," he said.
As with any new coach, DellaBarba said his initial challenge will be convincing his players to accept his message. "The challenge will be in establishing my values and my philosophy of the program, and getting the girls to buy in and realize we're all in this together," he said. "I don't have a particular style. I've had the opportunity to work with a number of great coaches who all have different styles. I will bring a mix of what I learned from them, plus what I've had success with on my own at the AAU level."
Although the Panthers lost some key players to graduation, DellaBarba sees a team that is athletic, so he expects them to attack on offense and play aggressive defense. "Our style will be tailored to what we have," he said. "We don't have a lot of experience, but we have a lot of athleticism."
Unfortunately, the Panthers figure to struggle at the outset due to a difficult schedule. They open with reigning Patriot League champion Scituate, followed by last season's runner-up, Pembroke.
"I definitely believe that we'll be stronger a few games into the season," he said. "I know it sounds cliché, but even from the beginning to the end of our first practice you could see a difference in the girls, where they had a little more energy at the end. I think we'll come on strong as the year goes on."

I came across this recipe for a rhubarb crumb cake a while ago. Rhubarb is something that I had been wanting to use more and a cake sounded like a great way to do it. I bookmarked the recipe to save for when rhubarb was in season and now that it was I had the chance to make it. The ingredient list for this recipe is a bit long but the cake comes together easily. The rhubarb crumb cake was really good! The cake was nice and soft and moist and the crumbs were light and sweet. Rhubarb is a bit tart and it perfectly balanced the sweetness of the crumb topping. I admit, I have been eating this cake for breakfast, along with the rhubarb fool. I have been enjoying the rhubarb so far this year and I look forward to using it some more.
Rhubarb Crumb Cake
- 1 pound rhubarb (trimmed and cut into 1/2 inch pieces
- 1/4 cup sugar
- 2 teaspoons cornstarch
- 1/2 teaspoon ground ginger
- Toss the rhubarb with the sugar, cornstarch and ginger to coat.
- Mix the sour cream, egg, egg yolk and vanilla in a large bowl.
- Mix the flour, brown sugar, sugar, cinnamon, ginger and salt in a large bowl.
- Mix the butter into the flour mixture.
- Mix the sour cream mixture into the flour mixture 1/3 at a time mixing in between.
- Pour all but 1/2 cup of the batter into a greased 8×8 inch baking dish followed by the rhubarb mixture and the remaining batter.
- Mix the flour, sugar, baking soda, baking powder and salt in a large bowl.
- Break the topping into big crumbs with your hands and sprinkle onto the cake.
- Bake in a preheated 325F/170C oven until a toothpick pushed into the center comes out clean, about 50 minutes.

With Total Connect, our customers can control their Z-Wave® enabled lights, locks, thermostats and shades on compatible, web-enabled smart devices. Likewise, using their PC they can keep an eye on their homes, families, businesses and employees with live, look-in video whenever they want, wherever they are enjoy an added level of security with the ability to remotely view dark, poorly lit indoor areas via low-light iP cameras. Always, be notified of activity inside and outside their homes and businesses via email, text messages or video notifications.
With the touch of a finger, your home can come to life. Think you forgot to turn off your outside lights when you're downstairs watching a movie? Just reach for your smartphone and check. You can keep an eye on your kids when they're at home on your tablet from the comfort of your couch. The only limitation is your imagination. You can even create customized scenes that allow system devices to act based on events, day of week or time of day from any Internet connected device. For example, you can have all of your lights turn off and your doors lock every night at 11:00 p.m. For added security, lighting schedules can be randomized for a "lived-in" look when you're away. Scenes can even be programmed to correspond with daylight savings or sunrise/sunset times.
Total Connect is great for DIYer's to franchise store owners who remotely want to access up to 250 sites with just one login.
Advanced Protection Logic ("Smash-Proof")
In most homes people will set there most common points of entry on a delay mode. This is where you enter your home and the system gives you around 30 seconds to disarm the system before it goes into an alarm. Since the brains of the system are all consolidated into the control panel there is risk in placing your panel near one of these delayed zones. If an intruder was to break into your home through one of these delay zones they could run in and grab the system and either smash it or throw it in a bucket of water rendering the system useless. Luckily, with professional alarm monitoring from GEOARM and the APL feature activated, your LYNX or LYRIC system will send a ping to our central monitoring station every time one of these delay doors is opened, letting us know the system is in tact. Once you enter your 4 digit disarm pass code, we will receive another signal letting us know you have disarmed your system and that it is still in tact. If we don't receive this final ping we will then treat it as an alarm and reach out to the emergency contact list provided to us by our client, and dispatch if protocol calls for that.

Isn't she one of the cutest things you ever did see? After I uploaded the tutorial on drawing a chibi version of the Cheshire cat, folks suggested and asked for a lesson on "how to draw chibi Alice from Alice in Wonderland". Of course I was going to fill such a request because I always wanted to turn Alice into a chibi in the past, but I didn't know if people would have liked a tut on her. Now that she is wanted, here she is. I wanted to draw Alice falling down the rabbit hole because as you know that's what she does in the movie. Besides, I didn't want to just have her standing there all bored looking like some of the other chibis I made in the past. This is an ultra cute depiction of Alice, and I think most of you will enjoy drawing chibi Alice. That's all I have to say about this tut, it's your turn now to tackle it. Have fun and be sure to comment, rate, and even fav the lessons that you view today. It's always nice receiving feedback.

Vegetarian Goat Cheese Vegetable Pot Pie Recipe
1 tbsp. olive oil
1 large onion, chopped
1 garlic clove, minced
2 potatoes, cleaned chopped
Trader Joe's pasta seasoning (or other favorite spice blend)
1 carrot, peeled and chopped
1/2 GF bouillon cube and enough water to cover ingredients
broccoli florets from 1/2 of a medium stalk of broccoli, trimmed into bite sized pieces
1 tbsp. butter
1 tbsp. white rice flour (or other flour of your choice)
1 cup lowfat milk
3 oz. soft, spreadable goat cheese
freshly grated pepper
smoked paprika
GF biscuit type crust*:
Preheat oven to 375 F and prepare casserole dish by spraying with nonstick cooking spray.
Heat olive oil in a dutch oven and add your chopped onion. Let it cook until partly translucent and add your minced garlic clove. Combine ingredients. As garlic starts to release its fragrance add your chopped potatoes and stir. Season with your Trader Joe's or other spice blend. Let the potatoes brown a little, turning occasionally. Cook for 5 minutes or so, and then add your chopped carrot. Heat some water and then add your bouillon cube, mashed to the center of the pot, pouring enough hot water over it to barely cover your vegetables. Let them simmer until the potato is cooked through and the liquid has mostly reduced. Add your small broccoli florets and cook for another minute. Then make a well in the center of the pot and melt butter in it. Add your rice flour to the well and let it thicken. Slowly add milk, stirring gently. As milk sauce thickens, add your goat cheese and stir to combine. Season with salt and pepper. Pour into prepared casserole dish and sprinkle with smoked paprika.
Prepare your biscuit topping by mixing ingredients thoroughly in a medium bowl, kneading if necessary. If using Chebe mix, shape biscuits into little balls. Then take each ball of dough and flatten into a disc, placing on top of the filling so that you have rows of mini biscuits covering the filling. You can also use your favorite biscuit mix (such as Pamela's biscuit mix*) and simply drop the dough onto the filling.
Bake for 35-35 minutes, or until biscuit topping is baked to your satisfaction. Enjoy this homey, tasty one dish meal!
*You can use your favorite biscuit recipe in place of the Chebe mix. For gluten-free options, try
Pamela's lowfat biscuit mix topping found here:
or a Mashed Potato Shepard's pie type topping
For those not following a gluten-free diet, try your favorite prepared biscuit mix as a topping.

Sadly, on December 18, those that frequented Tokyo 7-7 would remember this quaint business as real soul food. The food is nothing to write about, but sometimes it doesn't have to be good to have an impact on you. Everyone out there has his or her favorite restaurant, but at the end of the day, I'm sure most will take a home-cooked meal with the family over any Michelin-star restaurant.
The same thing happened to a neighborhood izakaya in West Los Angeles called Terried Sake House. A place where you could find some of the lowest priced yakitori skewers, sushi and other Japanese-y food. It was a place my friends and I would meet up to feed on various chicken parts and drink atrocious sake. But it was fun and our. And after 25+ years of working the kitchen, I could see that the owner was tired. During its last week of business, we found ourselves waiting nearly 30 minutes for a table in a full house, with a good 15-20 people waiting outside. We did the same thing, got our gizzards and hearts, ordered cheap sake and even stole one of the menus which was taped to the sake box cardboard. When we were done, we all went to shake the owners hand and thanked him for his 25+ years of service. I asked him what his plans were in which he replied with a weary smile, "travel. I'm done here."
As with Terried Sake House, it was now time for the sweet ladies of Tokyo 7-7 to move on. I drove down to Culver City on a weekday morning and found a line out the door. Because I was alone I was able to pull up on a 2-top easily. It was packed here at 8 am. I came here for my last Japanese American-style breakfast and to say goodbye to a great coffee shop.
When you walk in you really get the feeling of being in someone's house with autographed photos of the forgotten – Pat Morita of Karate Kid, random Japanese MLB players and a signed photo of Bob Sagat and The Full House cast. This was Napoleon Dynamite's house.
The signs of this establishment being Japanese run are subtle at first, but one look at the condiments supplied and you can sense the Japanese influence. They've got the usual suspects, but there's also soy sauce and Japanese seven-spice pepper called shichimi togorashi.
And then you see this sweet lady, Kazuko Ozawa from Shizuoka, Japan, who has owned this place for 30 years with the first 3 years at a different location. Even after so many years, she still buzzes around the restaurant with a warm smile. In one of the photos framed, you can see a younger Ozawa-san serving customers. It was definitely photographed in the 1980's. Crazy to think I was just a baby when she was setting up shop in Culver City.
And then there's her counterpart, Chizuru Okumura of Kumamoto, Japan who has worked there for 20 years. She's like an Aunt to me and always knows that I like to add the shichimi togorashi and seaweed condiment to my food – scratching her head as I add seaweed on top of my fried eggs.
When you order items like miso soup, which was at one time $0.80, you're given a pair of wooden chopsticks. Miso soup is good for washing down syrupy pancakes.
Certainly an average bowl of miso soup that is missing a key ingredient like dashi no moto fish stock powder, but who's complaining at $1 a bowl.
Tokyo 7-7 Hawaiian Royal
Anyone but Sandra Lee can make this, but why not let Tokyo 7-7 do it for you for a mere $4.50. Plus you don't have the essence from a 30-year old seasoned grill. It's something a college kid would make... unevenly scrambled eggs, your choice of meat, onions and scallions and served over warm Japanese rice. A little dash of soy sauce, shichimi togorashi and seaweed flakes and you're good to go. My friend who ate here 3 times during their last week of business ordered this every time.
Portuguese Sausage with Two Fried Eggs & Rice
Hawaiians eat this sausage like it grows off trees. It's slightly smokey and sweet and even served at the McDonald's in Hawaii. I love this stuff. Even more with nicely fried eggs and Japanese rice. Again, anyone can make this but there's something comforting about the way they do it.
After I took a photo of Ozawa and Ozumura, I asked Ozumura what she planned to do after this. She said, "I don't know but I am happy. 20 years is a long time!"
Send any of your photos to the Tokyo 7-7 website which plays a solemn instrumental song or "Like" them on Facebook. They've got a photo of the coffee shop completely gutted out. Thanks for reading.

Beggar(redirected from beggar belief)
Also found in: Dictionary, Thesaurus, Legal, Idioms.
What does it mean when you dream about a beggar?
There are some obvious associations with a beggar, such as feeling needy or feeling one has to beg for what one wants. Perhaps a feeling of failure (one is "reduced to begging"). Finally, it may represent inner needs or desires one does not feed, and which have thus reduced the person to the status of beggar.

ICS456: Essentials for NERC Critical Infrastructure Protection
Wed, March 21 - Sun, March 25, 2018
The ICS456 class has extended hours on Day 1. The class will run from 9:00 am to 6:30 pm on Day 1.
The instructors are awesome, material & labs great. After 15 years of SANS courses, this is #1.
This course is amazing. For me it was perfect timing to help me better serve my clients in P&U sector.
The Essentials for NERC Critical Infrastructure Protection 5-day course empowers students with knowledge of the "what" and the "how" of the version 5/6 standards. The course addresses the role of FERC, NERC and the Regional Entities, provides multiple approaches for identifying and categorizing BES Cyber Systems and helps asset owners determine the requirements applicable to specific implementations. Additionally, the course covers implementation strategies for the version 5/6 requirements with a balanced practitioner approach to both cybersecurity benefits, as well as regulatory compliance.
Our 25 hands-on labs range from securing workstations to digital forensics and lock picking.
Course Syllabus
ICS456.1: Asset Identification and Governance
Tim Conway
Wed Mar 21st, 2018
A transition is underway from NERC CIP programs that are well defined and understood to a new CIP paradigm that expands its scope into additional environments and adds significantly more complexity. In day 1 students will develop an understanding of the electric sector regulatory structure and history as well as an appreciation for how the CIP Standards fit into the overall framework of the reliability standards. Key NERC terms and definitions related to NERC CIP are reviewed using realistic concepts and examples that prepare students to better understand their meaning. We will explore multiple approaches to BES Cyber Asset identification and learn the critical role of strong management and governance controls. The day will examine a series of architectures, strategies, and difficult compliance questions in a way that highlights the reliability and cybersecurity strengths of particular approaches. Unique labs will include a scenario based competition that helps bring the concepts to life and highlights the important role we play in defending 'the grid.'

Education is key to every organization's success with NERC CIP and the students in ICS 456 will be knowledgeable advocates for CIP when they return to their place of work. Regardless of their role, each student can be a valued resource to their organization's CIP-004 training program, the CIP-011 information protection program. Students will be ready with resources for building and running strong awareness programs that reinforce the need for information protection and cybersecurity training. In day 4 we'll examine CIP-008 and CIP-009 covering identification, classification communication of incidents as well as the various roles and responsibilities needed in an incident response or a disaster recovery event. Labs in day 4 will introduce tools for ensuring file integrity and sanitization of files to be distributed, how to best utilize and communicate with the E-ISAC, and how to preserve incident data for future analysis.

Additionally we'll identify recurring and audit related processes that keep a CIP compliance program on track: culture of compliance, annual assessments, gap analysis, TFE's, and self-reporting. We'll also look at the challenge of preparing for NERC audits and provide tips to be prepare to demonstrate the awesome work your team is doing. Finally, we'll look at some real-life CIP violations and discuss what happened and the lessons we can take away. At the end of day 5 students will have a strong call to action to participate in the on-going development of CIP within their organization and in the industry overall as well as a sense that CIP is doable! Labs in day 5 will cover DOE C2M2, audit tools, and an audit focused take on 'blue team - red team' exercise.

Is there a new young adult mega-hit in the making?
Writer Gail Carriger's novel "Etiquette and Espionage" – the first in a planned quartet about a girl who attends finishing school and finds the institution is not what it seems – was released on Feb. 5 and is already garnering strong reviews as well as good sales.
"Etiquette and Espionage" follows Sophronia, a 14-year-old who is sent to Mademoiselle Geraldine's Finishing Academy for Young Ladies of Quality. The schools offers the kind of lessons you might expect – how to dance properly, the finer points of manners, etc. – but actually excels in the unexpected. The heart of Mademoiselle Geraldine's establishment is located inside dirigibles and teaches its pupils how to become spies as well as proper ladies.
Carriger has written for adults before. Her previous books made up a series titled the "Parasol Protectorate," which took place in a Victorian London which was peopled by werewolves and vampires. "Etiquette and Espionage" inhabits that same universe. The book was released by Little, Brown.
Etiquette and Espionage" made the New York Times young adult bestseller list on Feb. 24, taking the ninth spot, while Kirkus Reviews, Booklist and the School Library Journal have all given the title starred reviews.
"Carriger's YA debut brings her mix of Victorian paranormal steampunk and winning heroines to a whole new audience," Booklist wrote.
The retro-futuristic steampunk style continues strong in pop culture in general. It seems to fascinate readers of Cassandra Clare's bestselling "Infernal Devices" trilogy, the third title in which is scheduled for a March release this year. It has also been featured in movie theaters with the recent success of the rebooted "Sherlock Holmes" movies, which starred Robert Downey Jr. as the sleuth and Jude Law as his sidekick Watson and found them dodging lots of steampunk-style machines.
As we've previously discussed, skillfully written and well-reviewed young adult titles are today winning wider and wider adult audiences. The "Harry Potter" and "Hunger Games" series, of course, won praise from critics as well as appealing to young and adult readers alike. (Stephenie Meyer's "Twilight" series failed to wow the critics and yet attracted a vociferous, wide-ranging fan base nonetheless.) More recently, books like John Green's "The Fault in Our Stars" and the "Daughter of Smoke and Bone" series by Laini Taylor have received positive reviews and experienced strong sales among both adolescents and adults.
Carriger's new novel may be the "next big thing" to hit the new crossover category. Emilio Flores, the book buyer for the Redondo Beach, Calif. book store Mysterious Galaxy, told Publishers Weekly that an event in which Carriger came to the store to promote the book was a big success, with many attendees arriving in Victorian costume. He estimated that more than 100 people showed up.
"The author really appeals to both age groups, and she doesn't talk down to her teenage readers," Flores said of the audience, which he said consisted of about half teenagers and half adults. "For some YA authors, that is hard to pull off, but Gail really gets it right."

Police: Ex-DCF worker's husband molested children
Investigators say former DCF employee failed to report molestation
JACKSONVILLE, Fla. – A former Department of Children and Families worker and her husband have been arrested in connection with a child molestation case.
Louis Vereen was arrested in December and charged with child molestation. Tara Vereen, a former DCF employee, was arrested last month on a charge of child neglect after police said she failed to report the molestation.
Louis is facing two counts of lewd and lascivious molestation as the result of an investigation into accusations made by two children that dated back seven years, according to a police report.
Tara is charged with two counts each of child neglect and witness tampering. According to her arrest report, she contacted the two victims and asked them to write letters to the state attorney's office saying they lied about the accusations.
DCF said Tara Vereen was employed as a processor of food stamp applications and had no contact with children.
DCF said its own investigation found that she knew of the abuse allegations against her husband and didn't report them for years. That was conduct unbecoming and "does not reflect DCF values," officials said. She was fired.
Both suspects are out of jail on bond.

I'll be out of town the week of 4-1 to 4-6 in one of my favorite places: Las Vegas!
I know that I should be prepared for such things, but time management is one of the things I've got to learn.
Anyhow, I'll give you two optons:
1. Let's see how far Home Fries has progressed since Comic's Edge by viewing a week of "The Best of the Comic's Edge Days".
2.I found several toons I worked on about 12 years ago. They're about a frog and duck and titled "The Lilly Pad". You can see how my brain worked before I killed so many brain cells with beer.
So what will it be? A flashback or a flash waaaay back?

Marking the 150th anniversary of Alexis de Tocqueville's death, this two-day, two-university event will bring together French and American scholars to address aspects of Tocqueville's legacy that have become particularly contentious in recent years. These include Tocqueville's intellectual and political engagement with empire, his account of aristocracy and of the American frontier, the psychology of greatness informing his analysis, and his self-understanding as an author writing in a democratic age. Exploring the limits of democracy as Tocqueville envisioned them, and the limits of his vision of democracy, the conference aims to launch a spirited interdisciplinary inquiry into the institutional, cultural, and psychic preconditions of democratic life.
Organized by:
Ewa Atanassow, Antón Barba-Kay, Nathan Tarcov, the Montesquieu Forum

slag (someone) (off)(redirected from slagging me)
slag (someone) (off)
1. To criticize or upbraid someone in a harsh, insulting, and abusive manner. Primarily heard in UK, Ireland. I wish the boss would offer some constructive criticism instead of just slagging us when something goes wrong. Each night, I can hear the woman next door slagging off her husband.
2. To tease, mock, or ridicule someone. Primarily heard in UK, Ireland. Ah, don't take everything so personally, I'm only slagging you! It took me a while to get used to the way Sarah's family slags each other off all the time.


text: The SIA Snow Show is the CES for people who play in the snow; it's the place to see the latest gear, from featherweight boots to ultra-breathable insulated jackets and tiny two-way radios that will let people find you when it all goes bad. We found ourselves constantly fighting the urge to walk off with one lustworthy bit of kit after another while wandering past more than 900 exhibitors when the show hit Denver last week. Here are six of the coolest products that have us eating Ramen to save the money we'll need to buy them when the next ski season starts. Giro Combyn Most helmets are done after one brain-rattling hit. Hit your noggin trying to nail that 1080 in the half-pipe and you're throwing your helmet away once you've recovered from the concussion. The Giro Combyn may change that. Giro won't go as far to say you'll never have to replace your brain bucket, but it claims the Combyn passes the industry standard impact test again, again and again. The patented impact-absorbing soft foam liner features vinyl nitrile. That means it has more "give" than conventional helmets, which means it shouldn't deteriorate even after taking a few hits. The vinyl nitrile foam is paired with a softshell outer layer originally developed for hockey and football, where multiple impacts are the norm. $120. Available in August.Polartec Alpha Polartec Alpha was originally developed for the badasses of the U.S. Special Operations Forces, but it's cooler still because it's a "puffy" layer that's breathable. Being in the snow for any amount of time usually means wearing puffy insulated jackets made of down or synthetic material. They provide unmatched warmth and are great for when you're standing around belaying an ice climber or drinking beers after a day on the slopes. But we hesitate to use them any time we might work up a sweat because they trap in moisture. The problem is the loose insulating material is sandwiched between tightly woven fabrics. That's good for heat retention but bad for breathability. Alpha uses synthetic insulation that's knit together and doesn't need such tight fabrics around it. This means garment manufacturers can use more breathable materials on the outer and inner layers of your jackets. It's a game changer because we can now depend on that puffy kind of warmth while we're out being active. Marmot Isotherm jacket with Polartec Alpha: $200 Available fall 2013.Dynafit Beast 16 Dynafit has created the MacBook Air of bindings — super light, remarkably strong and something everyone will try to copy. The company is known for their featherweight and innovative alpine touring (AT) bindings, and the Beast 16 is a big step forward. It maintains many of the lightweight designs of Dynafit's other bindings and adds a DIN value of 16. That means it grips your boot like a baby grips a rattle. Oh sure. There are other bindings that promise that kind of grip. But those setups have binding plates that connect the toe and heal pieces, adding weight and affecting the flex of the ski. The Beast 16s have independent toe and heel pieces, which means they only weigh 1,870 grams per pair (nearly a 1,000 grams lighter than the competition) and they allow the ski to flex the way it's supposed to. It's a safe bet you'll see these bindings on a lot of skis as skiers continue exploring the back country and all the gnarly terrain it has to offer. $1,000. Available this fall.La Sportiva Spectre The Spectre's claim to fame is it's the lightest four-buckle ski boot on the market. At just over three pounds apiece, these babies are light enough to toss around like a football. Really. This is good news for skiers who want to ditch the crowds and hit the backcountry. No one wants to haul heavy boots up ski tracks at 12,000 feet. But don't let the lightness fool you. Four buckles make these boots plenty stiff, so you'll have no problem whipping your skis through the epic powder you hiked so far to find. The slick "walk mode" provides ample flex, which means a lot more range of motion when you're climbing toward the freshies. Think about it this way. Instead of wearing a regular boot that might feel like a 2-by-4 around your foot, these will feel more like a hiking boot. $599. Available this fall.Backcountry Access BC Link Of all the things you must do to stay safe in the backcountry, communication is paramount. Having your buddy shouting against the wind to warn you about that mini avalanche he triggered is a recipe for disaster. This is why the new Backcountry Access BC Link is a useful piece of equipment. At first blush, it's just another integrated two-way UHF radio. What makes it stand out is its design. Built specifically for the backcountry, it has a base unit that stores into your backpack and an easy-access mic that fits onto your shoulder strap. All of the controls are on your mic. This is important, because you can do things like change channels and watch the battery power without having to take your bag off and fumble around with the base. All together it weighs just half a pound and it's plenty small. The mic is 3.25 by 1.5 by 2.5 inches and the base is 2 by 1 by 6 inches. Biggest advantage? You'll spend less time messing with your radio and more time staying safe. $175. Available in September.Rossignol Soul 7 Manufacturers are playing with a lot of technologies to make skis strong enough to rip through power, stable enough to ski packed snow and light enough to haul up a mountain on your back. We, the consumers, want one ski that does it all. Enter the Soul 7 from Rossignol. The patented air-honeycomb design in the tip provides a significantly reduced swing weight, so you can whip them around faster. With a Paulownia wood core, they are supposed to be 20 percent lighter than similarly sized skis. All this means you won't hate yourself for hauling it into the backcountry, nor will you have any problems guiding the skis around when you're ripping powder stashes in the trees. Lindsey Vonn won't be skiing these in the Olympics (after she recovers) because they're not meant to go Mach 2 down the ice. But if you're looking for a ski that kicks ass almost everywhere else, Rossignol says it has the answer. $800. Available later this year.

I will try more at working through my fears. I will be brave! I will make my own decisions. I will live with my decisions. I will act on what I believe to be of value and worthy of my time and effort. I will be an advocate for my children. I will try new things. I will not be manipulated by people or an institution. It's going to be a good year with my brave attitude!
When I was a teenager I would react to fear or anxiety by falling asleep. I miss those days! Now I wake at 3:00 am with my heart and mind racing! I need to be brave just so I can get some sleep, sheesh.
Today my fear is centered around Cameron and Ethan. We signed them up for Snow Blitz. They will be picked up after school by bus and taken to the ski resort for skiing lessons. I'm worried about the bus ride through the snow. I am anxious that Cameron will have a hard time and react with his temper. I fear Ethan will not find friends. I am afraid they will lose their ski passes that I told them to leave in their zipper pockets and to never remove. I fear they will hit a tree. So many worries. Big Breath.
I have been playing this song for my boys in the morning before school. I love it when
they come home singing it at the top of their lungs!

What Are The Benefits Of Using Barley Straw In My Pond?
David – Mullica Hill, NJ
Whoever thought of adding barley straw to a pond must've discovered its advantages either by accident or because they were very clever. Because barley straw breaks down, it releases a byproduct and this byproduct is known to make the water conditions unfavorable for new algae growth without affecting any other aquatic life. Barley straw has been used in larger ponds and lakes for several decades and it was only natural for this method of preventing algae to spillover (pun intended) to water gardens.
When applying the bales to your pond, it's best to leave it in the mesh bag so that the straw doesn't float around everywhere. Also keep in mind that it will take roughly four to six weeks for the barley to start having an effect on your pond, so just add it early in the season and don't become impatient if you don't notice results right away. Remember, perfection takes time! Make sure as well to place the bales in an area that receives a good amount flow so all the pond water comes in contact with the barley. A waterfall filter box is a great choice to help spread the water.
Barley Straw is also available in a pellet form and a liquid extract.
POND TALK: Which barley form do you find that works the best: bales, pellets, or liquid?

This Wednesday is Dr. Seuss' birthday! Did you know that? It's also Read Across America Day. "On March 2, the National Education Association calls for every child to be reading in the company of a caring adult" (their website). This week I hope to bring you a few ways to get your kids excited about reading.
How about we start with the most important meal of the day?
Let's have some Green Eggs & Ham (& cheese & sauteed onions) omelettes with some Cat in the Hat Pancakes!
We just made our usual weekend breakfast (or "brinner," or in this case, "brunch") the same way as always, except I added 4 drops of green food coloring to our 2-egg omelettes (The Munchkin's 1-egg omelette got 3 drops), & my husband, the Pancake Master, made the white pancakes (including a slightly larger "brim") & then added "lots" of red food coloring to the pancake batter for the last couple batches. Easy & fun!
The Munchkin was so excited to pull the books out for me to photograph. I didn't take as much time as usual to set up the shot because we were hungry & the BYU-SDSU game was starting. Priorities, people!
BYU games aside, though, we do make time for reading every day. The Munchkin loves her books, & we love reliving some of the stories we grew up with (like those Dr. Seuss books — I had forgotten exactly how little of One Fish Two Fish really was about fish), as well as enjoying new ones (my parents brought Who's in the Loo? back from London a couple years ago — it's a riot!). It's a great learning, cuddling, & bonding experience for all of us.
What's your favorite thing about reading with your kids?

Voting Districts TX 2010
- Description:
- This polygon data layer represents the 2010 TIGER/Line voting districts for Alabama. The TIGER/Line Files are shapefiles and related database files (.dbf) that are an extract of selected geographic and cartographic information from the U.S. Census Bureau's Master Address File / Topologically Integrated Geographic Encoding and Referencing (MAF/TIGER) Database (MTDB). The MTDB represents a seamless national file with no overlaps or gaps between parts, however, each TIGER/Line File is designed to stand alone as an independent data set, or they can be combined to cover the entire nation. Voting district is the generic name for geographic entities such as precincts, wards, and election districts established by State governments for the purpose of conducting elections. States participating in the 2010 Census Redistricting Data Program as part of Public Law 94-171 (1975) provided the Census Bureau with boundaries, codes, and names for their VTDs. Each VTD is identified by a 1- to 6-character alphanumeric census code that is unique within county. For the 2010 Census, Rhode Island is the only State that did not participate in Phase 2 (the Voting District Project) of the Redistricting Data Program and no VTDs exist for this State in the 2010 Census data products.

Inequality is not the problem. It's amount is.
My opinion is sort of the opposite. I don't think it's a problem there are people who are making billions or hundreds of billions, in fact they're typically the people driving the economy and reinvesting that money into new enterprises. The problem is when people from low income backgrounds don't get a fair shake. The biggest factor crushing the middle class in America today is the education arms race. And I don't think these institutions really are providing serious training outside of academic fields. People can sleepwalk through a bachelor's degree, and master's degrees are producing mediocre business leaders. Our economy would be much better served if we used vocational aptitude batteries instead of relying on the reputation of educational institutions. The top universities are also becoming inbred cliques which are increasingly available only to the children of the wealthiest people, who in turn find mates there and concentrate wealth into fewer and fewer hands.

Sermon delivered October 19, 2008.
A woman who was shopping took a break for some coffee and cookies. She sat in the one unoccupied chair across from a man reading a newspaper. She sipped her coffee and reached for a cookie only to see the man across from her also taking a cookie. She glared at him; he just smiled at her, and she resumed her reading. Moments later she reached for another cookie, just as the man also took one. Now feeling quite angry, she stared at the one remaining cookie-whereupon the man reached over, broke the cookie in half and offered her a piece. She grabbed it and stuffed it into her mouth, as the man smiled at her again, rose and left. The woman was really steaming as she angrily opened her purse, her coffee break now ruined, and put her magazine away. Then she looked down and saw her bag of cookies, still full. All along she'd unknowingly been helping herself to the cookies belonging to the gracious man whose table she'd shared.
Ask yourself a question, who am I more like in this story, the woman or the man? Am I happy to share of my possessions, even if I have not been asked? Or am I stingy and easily irritated when I'm asked to give or someone takes from what I perceive to be mine? We should ask ourselves, do we relate to the Church like the man or the woman? The woman thinks the cookies belong to her. In actuality they belong to the man. As I mentioned last week, if we have an ownership mentality towards our possessions, then we might get a little upset when someone asks us for them or takes them from us. However, if we have a stewardship mentality, we will see our possessions as gifts to be shared with others through the Church.
The brief gospel passage from this past Tuesday, of the 4th Week of Luke 8:1-3 gives us insight into this dynamic. "1Now it came to pass, afterward, that He went through every city and village, preaching and bringing the glad tidings of the kingdom of God. And the twelve were with Him, 2and certain women who had been healed of evil spirits and infirmities-Mary called Magdalene, out of whom had come seven demons, 3and Joanna the wife of Chuza, Herod's steward, and Susanna, and many others who provided for Him from their substance." The 'He' referred to is Jesus Christ and we all know that His main activity on earth was preaching the Good News, teaching the commandments of God, and healing people of their physical and spiritual illnesses. On several occasions Jesus even raises the dead like in today's gospel passage (3rd Sun. Luke 7:11-16). We see here that the 'twelve' apostles, the closest and original disciples of Jesus are with Him as well as the three women who had been healed by Jesus. The passage concludes by saying these fifteen people and many others provided for Him from their substance. In other words, they supported Christ. That's an interesting statement because we often think that Jesus does not need any help because He is God.
Now, you have heard me say before that the Church, the ekklesia — those called by God to be His people, the Church, is the Body of Christ. This is not my own idea but the plain statement of the Apostle Paul (1 Cor.12:27). After Jesus' live-giving Death, Resurrection and Ascension into heaven, He sends the Holy Spirit upon the Apostles on the Day of Pentecost. For what purpose? So that the Apostles and all the people of God may continue the ministry of Christ as His living Body on earth. The Book of Acts recounts this early history of the Church where Peter and Paul and the other Apostles are preaching, teaching, healing and even raising people from the dead. In today's epistle reading, the 18th Sunday 1Cor.9:6-11, St. Paul is addressing the Church in Corinth and exhorting them to give to assist the poor and needy Christians in Jerusalem. He uses the example of the Church in Macedonia to inspire the Corinthians to give generously and cheerfully. So, one can see that the early Church was continuing to provide for Christ, in His Body-the Church, from their own substance.
Ask yourself another question, am I providing for Christ, in His Body-the Church from my own substance? Am I sowing the seeds of God's Word bountifully or sparingly? Am I giving cheerfully or am I giving reluctantly and grudgingly? Do I see my time, talents and treasures as cookies on a table, set out for anyone to share in and partake of? If so, God will "provide us with every blessing in abundance" (1Co.9:8). He will "multiply our seed for sowing and increase the harvest of our righteousness" (v.10). "We will be enriched in every way because of our great generosity, which will produce thanksgiving to God" (v.11). In other words, we will be thankful for the opportunity to give. In addition, those people who were able to benefit from the preaching, teaching, healing, missionary and benevolent ministry of the Church, will also be thankful to God for being helped.

Warning: artistic boobage ahead.
My friend, who does belly casts professionally, came over this morning to do a belly cast for me. I'm 37 weeks today and it seemed like a good time for me to do it since who knows if baby boy is going to decide to come early or not (wishful thinking).
Anyway, it went well and I think the cast turned out beautifully. She's taking it home to smooth it out and put a primer on it and get it ready to hang. Then I can put it on the wall or paint it or whatever I decide to do. I need to look online for inspiration. I know there are a lot of cool things that can be done with them. Actually, with a quick search, I just found some cool ideas here and here. I love the one with the baby's footprints on the cast. So sweet!
My sis took some pics of the event. 🙂
Here I am getting covered in plaster:

App Review: Bear on a Wire by Dreamsocket, Inc.
by Dorothy on
September 25, 2009
Filed under Daily App Reviews, Entertainment, Games, Kids
Bear on a Wire is a very entertaining app featuring a bear riding a bike on telephone wires. The picture of that huge bear on a bike is quite comical and is enough to bring a smile to your face. The object of the game is to complete each course in the time allotted. There is not much time to spare, so you will have to move quickly. Just getting through the levels is not all that exciting, though. For extra points, you can make the bear perform lots of different tricks on his bike. Be careful not to let him hit the wire, though. If he hits the wire, you lose a life.
The controls for the game are relatively simple. There is a paw on the lower right corner of the screen. Touch and hold this button to make the bear go forward. On the left side of the screen there are three buttons; a square, a triangle, and a square. These buttons are used to make the bear do tricks. Each button by itself or in combination with others makes the bear do something. There are so many different possibilities that it took me quite a while to figure out which buttons did what and when they could safely be used without making the bear crash.
To keep the bear's bike on its wheels, you can tip your iPhone or iPod left and right to balance him. You can also use this tipping motion to make the bear perform flips when he is airborne. Just make sure you have him right side up again by the time he lands on the wire again. Bear on a Wire is entertaining and funny. It is a fun, low-stress way to kill some time and have a good laugh.

One in a weekly series about the Black AIDS Institute's Greater Than AIDS ambassadors, who are using their VIP status in Black America to increase awareness of HIV/AIDS and HIV testing and treatment.
After the swift cancellation of The Playboy Club last fall, singer and actress Naturi Naughton -- who played Black bunny Brenda in the series -- is returning to television in April on Lifetime's The Client List. In the series, which is based on a true story, she plays Kendra, a masseuse at the Rub, a popular "massage parlor" owned by a Texas housewife-turned-hooker. That role is being reprised by Jennifer Love Hewitt, who also starred in the TV movie of the same name.
But as provocative as her recent television roles have been, the 27-year-old finds knowledge and protection far more alluring.
What prompted you to become a part of this movement?
I've been a part of this since last year, when I first did a PSA for the Black AIDS Institute. I was really moved by what I learned because I didn't realize how many people were affected, especially in my community, by HIV/AIDS. Knowing how the campaign can bring awareness among young people and young women -- and being a young African American woman -- I realized this could be me. And if I don't care, who will?
Have you known of someone affected by HIV/AIDS?
I haven't known anyone personally. But I have a friend who lost a very good friend to AIDS, and it really made me realize that it's hitting closer to home than one might think. It made me want to be more aware of getting tested, using protection -- all the things we sometimes take for granted. We can't take those things for granted.
When did you first decide to get tested?
My deciding moment to get tested was when I was in college. I was in my freshman year at Seton Hall University, and I was growing up and becoming a woman, realizing how to really take care of myself. And this is one of the things, as women, we have to do. I decided that I wasn't going to take any risks. I didn't want to be in doubt, and I didn't want to live without knowing my status. Those are the moments when you have to take control of your life, because I want to live.
But it's such a difficult topic to discuss in the Black community. Why?
So many people still believe it's taboo to talk about it -- that it's a disease that only affects people who have a certain type of a lifestyle or that you've done something wrong. There are all these stigmas and negative connotations that go along with it. But instead of being afraid to talk about it, we should embrace that it's here, and know that we can hinder the spread of it if we pay attention. If we're oblivious and not cognizant of the facts, we could completely lose the next generation. It's better to talk about it than not.
How do you get people talking?
The way to start is by giving people the facts, letting them know that this is something that a cousin, a sister, a brother, a mother, can be affected by and can die from. Once the community realizes how severely the epidemic is affecting our inner circles, I think that's how you make them realize that they can do what is necessary to stop this virus from spreading.
