Track List
Album Notes
The six main selections on this CD were last released as part of a Prestige LP titled The Oscar Pettiford Memorial Album, also including four tunes from a Serge Chaloff set. The CD reissue adds two alternate takes to the excellent session which features Pettiford on occasional bass solos and (on "Rhumblues") overdubbed on cello. The superior set also features tenor saxophonist Al Cohn, trombonist Kai Winding, guitarist Tal Farlow, French pianist Henri Renaud and drummer Max Roach -- quite an all-star group. Renaud contributed two of the songs which also include numbers by Hoagy Carmichael ("Stardust"), Gerry Mulligan and both Leonard and Jane Feather. The music is straight-ahead, with "Burt's Pad" (heard in two versions) going on for over 9« minutes. A fine CD that is easily recommended to bop collectors. ~ Scott Yanow

HARTFORD, Conn. - Documents show the gunman in last year's Connecticut school shooting wrote a violent book as a child that included passages in which a character shoots his mother in the head.
The homemade manuscript is titled "The Big Book of Granny" and was among items seized from Adam Lanza's home. The documents were part of a report released Monday.
Lanza killed 20 young children and six educators with a rifle at the Sandy Hook Elementary School in Newtown in December. He fatally shot his mother in the head before driving to the school.
The documents say the main character in Lanza's book has a gun in her cane and shoots people. There's nothing to indicate Lanza ever handed the book in at school.
The son character sinks his mother to the bottom of the ocean with a "cement floatation device." Another character likes hurting people, especially children.

L.A. Is One of America's Least-Douchiest Cities?
super douche/Flickr |
Los Angeles is among the least-douchiest cities in the United States, according to real estate listings site Estately.
And yet we simply refuse to believe this "Top U.S. Cities for Douchebags" list. The site ranked America's 100 most populous cities based on the amount of enthusiasm among male residents for certain Facebook interests. Half of those subjects (Chris Brown, Monster Energy, Vin Diesel, Dane Cook, Mixed Martial Arts) are products of/or based in greater Los Angeles!

Don't we get extra credit for that?

TicketsSun., Mar. 26, 12:30pm
Anyway, looking at those interests, Estately found us to be in the bottom 20, down at number 83, to be precise. Even our Ed Hardy rank - despite the fact that the clothing brand is the contemporary product of L.A.-based Frenchman Christian Audigier - was only at 21.
Interestingly, many of the top towns, Laredo (No. 1), El Paso (2), Corpus Christi (5) are rife with Mexican American douches, a previously underrated form of douche. New Jersey has guidos, but the Southwest has these brown-skinned, spiky-haired muscle boys.
Young Latino men love all things Ed Hardy and MMA. You'd think that L.A., where nearly half of us are of Mexican descent, would have done better here.
While noting that cities with high numbers of hipsters tend to rank lower in douchebaggery, the site notes that these Texas Latino towns are dominating:
Douchebags are massing in large numbers along the Texas border with Mexico, perhaps with plans of invading?
Hey, now.
See also: Los Angeles is The Second Least-Honest Big City in America
We let Estately writer Ryan Nickum know how much we disagreed with his conclusions, and he apologized. But he said the data simply did not fit the expectations of many folks:
When we compiled the criteria for Douchiest City we felt quite certain that our study would affirm what the entire country knows to be true - Southern California is the epicenter of douchedom, the capital of douchiness, the absolute pinnacle of all things douchebag. Our criteria obviously targeted the greater Los Angeles area, using numerous people and fads that began there. When we tallied everything up and discovered southern Texas was way out ahead, we were absolutely shocked. Also, we thought for sure the throngs of Massholes in Boston would push that city into the top ten. Nope.
Obviously, there's something terribly wrong with our study. Anyone who's driven I-5 from San Diego north through L.A. will have noticed they're trapped in a parade of America's douchiest douchebags. Southern California not only produces thousands and thousands of absolute douches, but it also attracts them from all over the world.
... On behalf of everyone at Estately, I'd like to sincerely apologize to all the douchebags in Southern California for not affirming their status. We are very sorry our study didn't validate what the non-douchey people of Southern California know to be true - that unlike anywhere else in America they endure far more douchebags per capita than anywhere in America.

Interestingly, SoCal towns including Anaheim (15), Santa Ana (18), and Long Beach (19) - all of them well represented by Latinos who wear Ed Hardy - made strong showings.
According to Estately:
Anaheim would be wise to build a bio-dome over the entire city. Not only would this keep all the aerosol from Axe Body Spray from reaching the atmosphere, but it would form a secure perimeter to keep out social scientists looking to study all the grown men who prefer their tattoos tribal and still wear Big Johnson T-shirts.
So we can't be entirely disappointed by this ranking. We just wish L.A. would get the respect all the young men who buy bottle service at Hollywood Boulevard nightclubs have rightly paid for.

50 Cent Inspired By His Trip To Africa
Earlier this month, 50 Cent took a trip to Africa to further his humanitarian works. The rapper says he is making a difference, and since a visit to the continent, he is a changed man.
Reflecting on the trip, he said the visit has inspired him, which will make him to hit the studio. During an interview with the Associated Press, Fif said that his lyrics are motivated by his experiences in Kenya but that fans will have to listen closely to interpret his message.
"I've put portions of my experience there in the actual songs, but it's so small that they'll have to listen to get it," he said. "I wanted to keep the record, creatively, in a space where when people listen to it, they just enjoy it before they can really understand what it was I'm saying; there's things on it that have double meanings."
"It enlightened me in different ways," he said. "To actually see people under the circumstances that I saw was a totally different experience. I don't think you can prepare yourself for that, no matter how many times you've seen the images."
Fiddy has made it his mission to stop hunger in Africa, donating proceeds from sales of his energy drink Street King to the cause. He explained how seeing hunger firsthand has inspired him and that he's provided more than 3.5 million meals so far.

Bush certainly does not judge nnoyae by skin color. No American President has ever done more for disease prevention or financial aid for Africa. His choices for Secretary of State were not white people , they were the best people for that position. Anyone that thinks otherwise is ignorant.Regarding Katrina. Get an education here folks. The Response has steps. The First Responsibility is at State Level. It is called Execution of the State Disaster Response Plan. The Governor of the Statepulls the trigger on that Plan at State level and requests assistance from FEMA only after the State Plan is put in action. The Governor of Louisiana FAILED on that incident. Federal intervention only happened after the State FAILED to execute their Plan. Lets get that straight right now. Had the Federal Government pre-empted the Lawful Authority of the Governor of Louisiana it would have been a Violation of Federal Law! Read the US Constitution before You even think about getting snippy with me on that, OK?By the time the Feds got involved, it was very ugly. The Federal Government was forced to act after the State Response FAILED their Citizens. I am so tired of having to hear the BS about that. Do Your Homework.I am damned tired of seeing the New Racism from the likes of Kanye West, Jeremiah Wright, the Nation of Islam, the Black Congressional Caucus and Others that feel Entitled . How long would a White Congressional Caucus last if formed? I am damn tired at this point of Hyphenated Americans as well & race baiters like Jackson & Sharpton that never served their Nation. I served for the majority of my adult life in the US Army that desegregated in 1948. Went to three wars with Soldiers, not Hyphenated Americans and it took 20 Years for the Civilian US to be forced to enact Civil Rights legislation. You tell me why that was necessary before you start throwing the Race Card around because I have heard it all before and don't buy into that. I amquite simply not intimidated.It appears at this point that divisiveness comes from those that want to blame one President for the failings of many, Democrats & Republicans both that failed America over the years. I just know better than to be fooled by folks bearing hate or an agenda. So feel free to climb on.But have your facts straight first and be civil.Reply

A myc tag is a polypeptide protein tag derived from the c-myc gene product that can be added to a protein using recombinant DNA technology. It can be used for affinity chromatography, then used to separate recombinant, overexpressed protein from wild type protein expressed by the host organism. It can also be used in the isolation of protein complexes with multiple subunits.
A myc tag can be used in many different assays that require recognition by an antibody. If there is no antibody against the studied protein, adding a myc-tag allows one to follow the protein with an antibody against the Myc epitope. Examples are cellular localization studies by immunofluorescence or detection by Western blotting.
The peptide sequence of the myc-tag is: N-EQKLISEEDL-C (1202 Da). It can be fused to the C-terminus and the N-terminus of a protein. It is advisable not to fuse the tag directly behind the signal peptide of a secretory protein, since it can interfere with translocation into the secretory pathway.

S100A4, also known as metastasis-associated protein Mtsl, belongs to the family of small calcium-binding S100 proteins containing two EF-hand calcium-binding motifs. In humans at least 20 S100 family members that are distributed tissue specifically have been identified, and are involved in a number of cellular processes as transducers of calcium signal. S100A4 is a symmetric homodimer, and undergoes a relatively large conformational change upon the typical EF-hand binding calcium, which is necessary for S100A4 to interact with its protein targets and generate biological effects. It can bind the already known targets p53, F-actin, liprin β, myosin heavy chain II, and prevent their phosphorylation and multimerization. It has been demonstrated that S100A4 is directly involved in tumor metastasis including cell motility, invasion, apoptosis, angiogenesis and differentiation, and appears to be a metastasis factor and a molecular marker for clinical prognosis. Multiple alternatively spliced variants encoding the same protein have been identified.

Fans are calling for the cancellation of Amy Poehler's new Hulu series Difficult People after an offensive joke was made about Beyoncé's 3-year-old daughter.
"I can't wait for Blue Ivy to be 18-year-old so R Kelly can piss on her," is the joke currently under fire. Julie Klausner, who plays Julie Kessler in the series, made the joke and received subtle criticism from her co-star and an anonymous online troll who suggested that she should kill herself.
Amy Poehler's New Show UNDER FIRE . . . After They Made A VERY INAPPROPRIATE Joke . . . About Beyonce's Daughter Blue . . . BEING MOLESTED!! (Should The Show Be CANCELLED??)
Posted by Mediatakeout on Sunday, 16 August 2015
Blue Ivy is the 3-year-old daughter of Beyoncé and her husband Jay Z.
In 2002, R Kelly was accused of having sex with and urinating on an underage girl, but was found not guilty in 2008.
Klausner recently told Entertainment Weekly that Poehler was heavily involved with each and every script used on the series.
"Amy could not have been more hands-on. She did not only give notes on every script, she gave notes on every draft of every outline. She weighed in on casting videos, cast roles. She weighed in on production matters," she said.
"She came up with the title. She would give notes on every single edit, not only of the shows but of the promos, the trailers. She would be involved in every stage of the process in a way that she would go above and beyond."
Fans took to Twitter to express their disgust with the joke.
A joke about R. Kelly assaulting Blue Ivy is not a joke targeting him. It's making light of what he did and punching down at his victims
— jamilah (@JamilahLemieux) August 17, 2015
"Is Blue Ivy old enough for R. Kelly?" @smrtgrls, how do you have a site dedicated to girls, and OK that line?
— Cynthia F. (@cynfinite) August 17, 2015
Amy Poehler would've never let this joke fly about a three year old White girl. NEVER
— Miss Ann Dri (@OHTheMaryD) August 17, 2015
Amy Poelher thinks its funny to produce a show speculating the molestation and rape of a minor how sick! As a mother you should be ashamed!
— Kate (@Mrsthirdwrd) August 17, 2015
I really love Amy Poehler. Like truly with my whole Grinch heart, but that joke she ok'd for her show about Blue Ivy is just tasteless
— Nola Darling (@WESTCOASTSUMA) August 17, 2015
That said, Blue Ivy is not fodder for your bullshit. She is a tiny toddler what the fuck Amy Poehler.
— QueenOfBrassKnuckles (@MarinaTronin) August 17, 2015
"I can't wait until Blue Ivy is old enough for R. Kelly to piss on her." You and your new show are both disgusting @smrtgrls @amypoehler
— The Unorthodox Duck (@GeauxGabby) August 17, 2015
Poehler is also a co-founder of Amy Poehler's Smart Girls, an online community that seeks to empower young women through "volunteerism," "activism" and "culture."
"Funny, focused, and powerful, Smart Girls seeks to help future women channel their intelligence, imagination, and curiosity into a drive to be their weird and wonderful selves," says the group's website.
Representatives for Poehler, Klausner and Amy Poehler's Smart Girls had not responded to The Independent's request for comment by press time.

Overview (4)
Date of Birth | 31 May 1965, New York City, New York, USA |
Birth Name | Brooke Christa Shields |
Nickname | Brookie |
Height | 6' (1.83 m) |
Mini Bio (1)
"Want to know what comes between me and my Calvins? Nothing". If you have not heard of Brooke Shields before, this tagline from her Calvin Klein Jeans ad had to grab your attention. Not that she has not had a previously noteworthy resume. She was born on May 31, 1965 in New York City and, at age 12, she starred as a child prostitute in Pretty Baby (1978). Could this movie even be made today? It was considered risky and controversial in 1978. It was followed by another blockbuster, the romance adventure drama The Blue Lagoon (1980). Brooke has proved herself to be so much more than her early films. Her broad range of work as an adult would be quite an achievement for anyone, especially given how difficult transitioning from child actor to adult often is.
She has never stopped working, whether it be a Bob Hope Christmas special, her own sitcom Suddenly Susan (1996) or as an author. She also managed to work on a degree from Princeton University. She has received a number of awards during her career, most notably The People's Choice award for 1981 through 1984 in the category of Favorite Young Performer. In 1997, she was honored again with The People's Choice award for Favorite Female Performer in a New Television Series in 1997 for her work in Suddenly Susan (1996). In her personal life, she was married in 1997 to tennis player Andre Agassi and was devastated when they divorced two years later. She married for the second time in 2001 to Chris Henchy. She has been open about using fertility treatments to become pregnant with their daughter, Rowan, born in 2003.
When suffering debilitating depression after the birth of her daughter, she made the decision to put her feelings down on paper. Her book, "Down Came the Rain: My Journey Through Postpartum Depression", takes a hard, honest look at what she and many other women experience after childbirth. She still lives in New York City, and is still sought after for work in movies, television, and on stage. Pretty nice list of achievements for the once Calvin Klein jeans girl.

I just LOVE reading this with a HUGE smile on my face and tears in my eyes. I was and i am still so happy you both got your miracle baby :D we hope that one day u come back and see us. we miss ya all so much. LOVE to everyone :D
ReplyDelete came to your blog via swap-bot (just got your handmade stamped postcard). one thing i've always been curious about when reading "i didn't realize I was pregnant stories" is this: what did you think was happening when the baby started moving and kicking?
(maybe your friend saw the baby move and that's why she "had a hunch"!)
Great story, by the way. I was laughing at the image of the nurse throwing WTEWYE over his shoulder!RepliesI only recall feeling AJ move once before I knew about him, and wondering why my side was cramping! After we knew about him it was still almost impossible to feel him moving - unless it was very late at night. The Doctor's best guess was that he slept most all day while I was working, etc. and was active at night. It certainly held true after he was born! That kid's schedule was all messed up!! :0)

IIFA culminates honouring Indian Cinema with much grandiose
Bhaag Milkha Bhaag take home highest accolades at the 15th Tata Motors IIFA Awards
Deepika Padukone and Farhan Akhtar win lead actor Awards
International Actors Kevin Spacey & John Travolta join in the Celebrations
26th April, 2014, Tampa Bay: The 15th Tata Motors IIFA Awards surpassed expectations with a spectacular show that saw the film Bhaag Milkha Bhaag nab the top Awards of the night including Best Picture, Best Direction, Performance in Leading Role (Male), Performance in a Supporting Role (Female) and Best Story. Aashiqui 2 bagged awards for Music Direction, Lyrics, Playback Singer (Male) and Playback Singer (Female). Deepika Padukone won the Award for her much acclaimed role in Chennai Express while Farhan Akhtar won for his role in Bhaag Milkha Bhaag.
Celebrating the magic of Indian Cinema, the Tata Motors IIFA Awards was held at the Raymond James Stadium where actors, Shahid Kapoor and Farhan Akthar played host for the second time. The duo kept the audience entertained throughout the evening with their humour, wit and laudable on-stage camaraderie with sets varying from a celebrity antakshri to a live-rap with the audience (Raju & Pappu), to them being dressed as spirited pirates.
Some of the highlights of the evening were the launch of IIFA Coffee Table Book by the Founder- Directors of Wizcraft International Entertainment – Andre Timmins, Sabbas Joseph and Viraf Sarkari along with superstar Hrithik Roshan.
International actors John Travolta and Kevin Spacey shook a leg on popular Bollywood hits. Kevin Spacey was brought on stage by Shahid, Farhan and Deepika to join them for a little jig to Lungi Dance while John Travolta joined Priyanka Chopra on stage at the end of her act and later joined Hrithik matching moves with celebrity dancer-actor, Hrithik Roshan.
On having won the Performance in a Leading Role (Female), Deepika Padukone said, "2013 was an amazing year for me. I left home with a suitcase and a dream and I thank my parents for allowing me to follow my dream."
Farhan Akhtar on winning the award for Performance in a Leading Role (Male) said, "This is a very special moment as it is the first time I'm receiving an award for the film in the presence of Milkha Singh. He shared a lot of amazing stories with me and was the wind beneath my wings. I am very honoured today."
John Travolta was felicitated with an award for Outstanding Contribution to International Cinema. He accepted the award saying "I am honoured and humbled to be put in this category. I believe that as human being we are alike and this is a medium to celebrate our similarities. A heartfelt thank you to IIFA and the Indian film community."
Debutants, Vaani Kapoor (Shudh Desi Romance) and Dhanush (Raanjhanaa) took to the IIFA stage to collect their accolades for the most promising new faces in Indian Cinema. The Tata Motors IIFA Awards, organized by Wizcraft International Entertainment, had foot tapping performances line-up. Madhuri Dixit Nene stole the show with her performance on Ek Do Teen, Piya Ghar Aaya, Dhak Dhak Karne Laga, Dola Re Dola.
Another highlight of the night was the electrifying performance by Hrithik Roshan on his hit numbers Mein Aisa Kyun Hoon, Bhoomro Bhoomro, Idhar Chala Main Udhar Chala, Senorita and Dhoom among others.
Priyanka Chopra performed on Jaane Kyon Dil Chahata Hai, Mujse Shaadi Karogi, Tune Maari Entriyaan and many more. Deepika Padukone performed on Dhol Bhaje among others. Other performers were Ranveer Singh and Siddharth Malhotra.

Color Me Pretty Skirt
Just in time for school! This skirt will be an excellent addition to any girl's wardrobe, and will become a favorite piece in no time.
The skirt is knit entirely in the round from top down. It begins with a provisional cast on, which is used to allow for a knitted on waistband. There are two distinct sections in the skirt construction: A-line top portion and the straight bottom part that features a colorwork design. Since children significantly vary in height, the skirt length is easily customizable.
The Fair Isle design lends itself to many possibilities of various color combinations; my version is just one of them. You can work with as little as one contrast color and with as many as you would like.
This skirt is an excellent stash buster for all your odd left over DK yarn.
The pattern comes with detailed instructions and tutorial links for all the relevant techniques used.

hello people,
I cant believe i have only just found out about Lucid dreaming and i want to do this. The Problem i am having is that my dreams are not normal.<-- it hard to explain so i cant write them down. They are very vague and they aren't making much sense. I think its because i am not getting enough hours of sleep and not getting deep into a dream. Tonight ill go to bed early and see what the results are and ill be sure to post them here. Any help? much appreciated
Re: Hello
Yea, lack of sleep can cause vague, irrational dreams. But then if you sleep well and early, and Wake Back to Bed, they tend to be more vivid and you are more 'awake' in the dream. It's strange to think that when asleep there are different levels of wakefullness but there is! (Wasn't it all just sleep and nonsense to be forgotten the way most of society sees it? NO!) Then when you wake up fully in the dream, BAM!, you are lucid. (Or if you are not fully awake you can be semi-lucid, but that's another story).
If we all lucid dreamed this world would be a better place.

One Saturday morning I came across a tweet from a lawyer recommending me to another lawyer. I contacted her and before brunch I had a new CLE accreditation client.
This happened many years ago when I left law firm life after a decade of law librarianship to start a continuing legal education consultancy. Besides the crude blog I crafted, Twitter (@tim_baran) turned out to be my most effective brand awareness and relationship building effort. It's also become my most trusted source for breaking news.
The 2009 Legal Talk Network episode on The Pros & Cons of Twitter was instrumental in helping me get why I should be on Twitter. Following thought leaders in the legal space like @kevinokeefe, @bobambrogi, @jordan_law21, and others, provided a solid education.
But, what about practicing lawyers who are still on the fence or who have joined Twitter but are skeptical or unsure of how to navigate the network? Check out these stories from fellow practicing lawyers on how they use Twitter to build relationships, increase awareness, share information, and get news.
Brian Focht – For me, Twitter is a phenomenal listening tool. I probably get more legal and tech news from Twitter than any other single source. @NCCyberAdvocate
Brian Mekdsy – I use Twitter mainly to share relevant and timely information about the legal industry, technology (including Legal Tech), law school-related news, small business and legal marketing, legal developments, and issues related to social networking. Social engagement is also an important consideration when I use Twitter, so I try to interact with my connections whenever an issue or topic lends itself to a back-and-forth exchange. @Brian_MALawyer
Cari Rincker – I use Twitter in multiple ways. First, any new blog that I post on my Food, Farm and Family Blog automatically posts on my business Facebook and Twitter pages via a third party application called Symphony. This helps update my followers on new blog entries. Second, every morning I tweet relevant news and blog links. Not only does this help build my brand but I want to be seen as a source of information to people. Third, I use it to publicize speaking engagements, events that I am hosting, and literature that I have authored. Fourth, I really love tweeting from conferences that I attend (using the official hashtag of the conference, of course) as a way to get information from the conference out to the public and for me to learn from other attendees. Last but certainly not least, I use Twitter as an information and conversation tool. @CariRincker
Chad Burton – Twitter has lately become my preferred social media platform. It has grown on me over time. It seems like much of my activity relates to entertaining myself. The information I share — that is at least quasi-substantive — often shows where my head is on developments related to the legal industry. I also use the platform to keep up on current events and news, as well as occasionally troll my friends and colleagues. @chadeburton
Chrissie Scelsi – Twitter has been part of my practice since I first started it 5 years ago. I was an early adopter of the platform, and it has proven to be a great way for me to stay current on a wide variety of issues related to my practice, share content, as well as engage with people that in many instances I would not normally interact with or have access to due to geography or other barriers. The greatest impact that Twitter has had on my practice has been in terms of marketing. The Florida Bar considers using a Twitter handle that is not your own name or firm name to be advertising under a trade name, which means that you have to put it on your business cards, letterhead, and court pleadings. My practice is in transactional entertainment, intellectual property, and new media law, so I haven't tested the third one, but I have opted to get creative in my branding around my Twitter handle in terms of the other two, and it has really helped me stand out in networking, as @punklawyer is a pretty memorable handle, especially in the legal field. In fact, I was just recognized by the Orlando Business Journal as one of 8 Central Florida attorneys with 'Twitterati status' based on the number of followers. @PunkLawyer
Elizabeth Potts Weinstein – I use Twitter both to communicate with potential clients & referral sources as well as to gather information for my own practice. Most of my feed is posting my informational small biz law blog posts and videos, but I also retweet legal news and articles of interest to other small business owners (my target market). It's a great place to keep up on the latest cases and controversies. Sometimes I answer basic legal questions from followers. I also participate in a few twitterchats, and get into discussions with small business owners about their practice. It takes a lot more posting to make connections than it did a few years ago, but I still get clients via Twitter. @ElizabethPW
Frederic Abramson – I usually use Twitter when I'm on the go, when I have idle time in court. I use apps such as Fiipboard and subscribe to many legal newsletters which provides plenty of fodder to tweet. I divide my timeline through the use of lists. One list is for general business leaders. Another is populated by a program called Cloze, which has access to my gmail account and follows everyone who I have contacted. I also have a list of prospects. I have another list for lawyers and legal professionals. Generally I use Twitter as an information source. I have also made a number of friends through Twitter, but that requires engagement. @fredabramson
Gabriel Cheong – I use twitter to connect with thought leaders on marketing, branding, entrepreneurship – not only in the legal field, but also from other industries. I think there's lots to learn from others in only 140 characters. @GabrielCheong
Ignatius Grande – I believe that Twitter is the most useful social media platform for attorneys. On a daily basis I utilize lists and hashtags to find new cases, timely articles, and interesting commentary on topics that are of interest to me. Because of the word limit, posts have to get to the point quickly, so you are able to review a lot of content in a short period of time. I often check Twitter from my iPhone during my commute or at night while watching television. @igrande
Jennifer Ellis – Whether it is discussing late-breaking news, sharing a blog post about a hot legal issue or even group watching a tv show, Twitter is the best social media option for fast, responsive communication. I use Twitter to share and re-share all kinds of content, but I find it most useful for sharing (and learning about) things in real time. @JLE_JD
Jenny Stevens – I use Twitter to quickly post "hot tips" about my practice or my specific area of law. Also, when we're traveling and speaking at legal or tech seminars, I use my tweets as a way to quickly update my followers on the things we're speaking about or interesting things we're learning while attending. I've also found it's a great way to meet new folks I'd otherwise have never crossed paths with while attending such conferences. @MrsMacLawyer
Mitch Jackson – Twitter is a wonderful way to connect, engage and communicate with others. Sharing helpful tips, resources and links in 140 characters or less keeps things fast, efficient and easy. Using DM (private message) is a great way to share private information on the go. When it comes to building new relationships, very few tools come close to what I've been able to achieve on Twitter. @mitchjackson
Randall Ryder I don't really have a conscious game plan with Twitter. I use it to highlight news on consumer law, blab about my favorite sports teams, and showcase incredibly important articles on The Onion. In a nutshell, I try and use it to showcase my practice (consumer law) and my personality (sports and humor). @randallryder
Scott Malouf – I use Twitter to connect with other professionals of course. But it is just as important to understand how others (students, startups, brand managers, activists, unhappy employees, etc.) have different goals and use Twitter very differently.
Being on Twitter frequently helps me track these uses and give better advice to clients on the legal risks and benefits of Twitter and other platforms. @ScottMalouf
Shawn Tuma – Twitter is my go-to relationship building tool. I often compare Twitter to walking into a cocktail party, saying hello to everyone I see, having light conversation, all while finding people I have connections with to form deeper relationships. Twitter Lists are the key for fostering those relationships. I have over 50 Lists that include family and close friends, thought-leaders in my practice area, colleagues with similar practices in other states, professional partners, potential clients, and referral sources. I use these lists for focusing on what these people are interested in, sharing their content, and having conversations with them. I have made some really great friends this way, and snagged a few clients along the way! @shawnetuma
Steven Kramer – It's important to understand that we are in an unprecedented age of communication. People receive information and connect on a personal level through various platforms, so it's important that I am active on all of them. This includes Twitter and other social media outlets, radio, television, and print. But that's just half the battle for me. I use Twitter to communicate in a manner that is in good humor and is meaningful to the lives of people I am reaching. That's how I gain genuine engagement that drives and grows business. @KramerLawFirm

I had only bought fresh coconut once in
Here is the result.
To select and process a coconut:
- Select a coconut that does not look moldy on the 3 eyes (top of the coconut). Give it a sniff if it smells sour, put it back. Make sure the coconut is quite heavy and shake it to ensure there is still water inside.
- To crack a coconut, hold the coconut in one palm and the other hand using the back of a chinese cleaver tap hard on the middle of the coconut till the shell cracked. Do this over the sink to allow the water to spill out. Continue tapping along the crack till the whole coconut is broken into half. Crack the coconut halves into few pieces. Use a hammer if you want to but I just tap it with the back of a cleaver.
- Using a blunt knife dig out the white flesh. Big chunk if you can.
- Use a sharp small knife peel off the brown skin on the underside of the flesh.
- Grate the coconut with a Microplane, medium or fine.
To make kerisik, first roast the coconut in a dry pan on medium low heat and stirring all the time for about 20 – 25 minutes till golden brown. (if the coconut is very hot and turning brown too quickly, turn the heat down to minimum). Here is the result.
While it is still warm, blitz the coconut using a food processor or mini blender till very fine like this.
** If you don't get fresh coconut you can use desiccated coconut.

Transaction Oracle — A Timely Look at Transactions as They Happen Wednesday, August 03, 2005Boone, Sele ReleasedSeattle Mariners - Released P Aaron Sele. Addition by subtraction - 0forthreeivas is a better player than Boone is (as is the recalled Jason Bartlett) and everyone's better than Aaron Sele. I'm guessing neither will announce their retirement and end up being surprised when they don't get a job this offseason a la Harold Baines. I'm not heartbroken about either of these releases as Sele has earned millions of dollars more over the years than his performance warrants and I simply don't like Boone.

What park does the "Rest '05" assume for these projections?
2. PhillyBooster
Posted: August 03, 2005 at 02:32 AM (#1519047)
I would assume that the "Rest '05" numbers are adjusted to the Newark Bears' home park.
3. RoyalsRetro (AG#1F)
Posted: August 03, 2005 at 02:42 AM (#1519077)
I predict Bret Boone is on the White Sox next year.
4. More Dewey is Always Good
Posted: August 03, 2005 at 02:44 AM (#1519083)
The White Sox already have a very good second baseman. They don't need a crappy one.
5. The Ghost of Sox Fans Past
Posted: August 03, 2005 at 02:52 PM (#1519694)I think it a lot more likely that the Sox give Aaron Sele a look.
If Jeff Cirillo can get a job, Boone can. OTOH, Bret has lost his ability to hit AND field. Nevermind.
6. Pinetarfly
Posted: August 03, 2005 at 03:57 PM (#1519844)Sele was amazingly effective for awhile this season, with a month of All-Start caliber performance. Too bad it's a six-month season.
Maybe his release is going to correspond with a positive test two weeks from now...

Is this the first time the "0forthreeivas" reference got posted, or did I miss it on some other post? It took me about 1:47:53 to figure it out!!! Good one, nonetheless.
9. The Most Interesting Man In The World
Posted: August 03, 2005 at 11:56 PM (#1521028)Sele should join Braves and go 8-1 the rest of the way, then get a 3 yr $24M deal from Yanks in offseason, but I'm not his agent...
I would think that a certain Bay Area team might pick both these fellows up.
10. 1k5v3L
Posted: August 03, 2005 at 11:58 PM (#1521033)
I won't be shocked to see Sele on the eventual WS winner, the NYY.
11. Quinton McCracken's BFF
Posted: August 04, 2005 at 01:31 PM (#1522097)
Aaron, please: John Burkett got released by de D'Rays and the Braves turned him into an All Star by next Summer.
12. Devin has a deep burning passion for fuzzy socks
Posted: August 04, 2005 at 01:46 PM (#1522104)I like Aaron Sele. In fact, back when I used to play baseball, I got my curveball to break best when I mimicked his delivery. I don't want to see him go!
There was a report in the Daily News today that the Yankees might sign Sele to a AAA contract. If he winds up starting for them, I'll laugh for 5 minutes straight. If by some chance he winds up pitching for them in the postseason, I may asphyxiate. (After all the times I've read in the NY papers how stupid Yankee opponents have been to use him.)

Do the Yankees even have any idea what they're doing anymore?
16. Crispix reaches boiling point with lackluster play
Posted: August 08, 2005 at 10:51 PM (#1530732)Given the injury problems of their geriatric rotation, they don't have much choice.
The White Sox already have a very good second baseman. They don't need a crappy one.
17. altavista
Posted: August 08, 2005 at 11:17 PM (#1530793)But if they sign Boone, they'll have a white second baseman, a black second baseman, a Japanese second baseman, and a Dominican second baseman on the 40-man roster. You can't put a price on that.
I may be in the minority but I've always liked both of these guys. They both did better than they probably should have. Whatever they're actually like as people, it sucks when the end of the road comes. It came for me at 19 and it damned near broke my heart. So, I always feel bad for the guys who really can't do it anymore.
With that said, neither of these guys can do it anymore. They should quietly hang it up at the end of the year and enjoy their broadcasting careers. You must be Registered and Logged In to post comments. |

Will Jackson was only 18 years old when he was diagnosed with glaucoma. He came to terms with his poor vision, and for more than 30 years he has lived a relatively ordinary life. He has two sons and a fiancé, loves to cook and has mastered using public transportation to travel around Baltimore.
But recently, Jackson found it increasingly difficult to do everyday activities such as reading the newspaper, reviewing bills and writing checks. When his ophthalmologist recommended he seek low-vision rehabilitation services at the Lions Vision Center within the Johns Hopkins Wilmer Eye Institute in Baltimore, Jackson didn't think there would be much they could do for him. He had adapted to living with glaucoma so well that he had never sought assistance outside of his eye doctor. Nevertheless, he made an appointment to see a low-vision specialist.
A few days later, Jackson received a phone call from Past District Governor Ken Chew. He called on behalf of the Low Vision Rehabilitation Network (LOVRNET), an initiative of the Lions of Multiple District (MD) 22 and a partner of the Lions Vision Center. Lions LOVRNET is a model for a new community-based healthcare program to address the current shortage of low-vision rehabilitation services in Delaware, Maryland and the District of Columbia. The program creates a single referral resource for both eye care providers and patients and coordinates care by matching patients to appropriate trained service providers in their area.
The phone screening interview with Chew took about an hour. Jackson learned about tasks that he could get help with and tools that were available to him. Special cameras, magnifying glasses and even a talking watch could help him remain self-sufficient. With the help of adaptive tools from the Lions Vision Center, Jackson hopes to one day be able to watch a football game. "The experience has been personal. I get to talk to people and laugh with them," he explains. "It's more than just filling out forms at a doctor's office. I feel like a person, not a number."
The Lions of MD 22 received a US$567,647 SightFirst grant to establish the Lions LOVRNET. In addition to developing a single referral resource, Lions LOVRNET also trains and supports local optometrists, ophthalmologists and other eye care providers so they can offer high quality and effective low-vision rehabilitation services as part of their practices.
The LOVRNET project was inspired by a previous collaboration between MD 22 and Johns Hopkins to develop a public education program on low vision and blindness. That effort, supported by an LCIF US$200,000 Core 4 grant, mobilized local Lions to educate the community on eye health and low-vision rehabilitation.
The unexpected value for Lions, according to Chew, is connecting to people on the other end of the line. "I have been a Lion for almost 25 years. My club is great at raising money and writing checks—and that's important. But connecting with people is important, too," says Chew. "Seeing a patient's journey is a reminder of the impact we're having. We have the potential to do a lot of good."
Jackson's eyesight may be impaired, but his vision of living a self-reliant life is thriving. With Lions and LCIF on his side, his future is bright. To find out how your district or multiple district can help address the need for low-vision services in your area, visit lcif.org. To learn more about Lions LOVRNET, visit lovrnet.org.

April is Leo Club Awareness Month! To celebrate and recognize Leo clubs, the Lions Blog will feature stories about Leo service projects around the world. Today's story was written by Leo Club Program Advisory Panelist, Kyle Boutilier.
In the past month, my home club, the Kwantlen Park Leo Club, has had the opportunity to take part in some outstanding service projects. The Kwantlen Park Leo Club is based at Kwantlen Park Secondary School in Surrey, British Columbia, Canada. The newly created Surrey Central Lions Club sponsors them. On March 2nd, my Leo club celebrated its 5th birthday and we look forward to the next five years and beyond!
This February, the Leos continued with their annual senior citizens prom on February 13th, 2016. This is the second year running of this project and the dance was met with enthusiasm and success. The seniors (55+) of Surrey boogied the night away and enjoyed a delicious meal! Approximately 80 people attended and enjoyed the dancing, prizes and of course food. A local business provided the music and the City of Surrey co-sponsored the event with the KP Leos! The planning of the project began in January and posters and decorations were hand made by the members of the Kwantlen Park Leos Club. The many hours of making posters, planning, and promoting the dance was well worth it as the seniors gave rave reviews. This project helped demonstrate to the seniors that young people are very passionate and care about their elders.
Other Leo Clubs can organize a similar project in their community by seeking the support of local businesses and the municipal government. A good mix of passion, hard work, and enthusiasm can make this project successful in any community.
The Leo Club Program gives young people the opportunity to serve their communities, develop leadership skills, make new friends and have fun! Learn more about the Leo Club Program and find out how to start a Leo club in your community.

April is Leo Club Awareness Month! To celebrate and recognize Leo clubs, the Lions Blog will feature stories about Leo service projects around the world. Today's story comes from the Bali Shanti Leo Club in Indonesia. This Omega Leo club, sponsored by the Bali Surya Host Lions Club, will celebrate its 3 year anniversary next month.
In December 2015, the Bali Shanti Leo Club held an event called "Action Day with Leo." On this special day, Leos participated in several service activities including a dental hygiene program for children. In the morning, Leos taught 168 primary school students about proper dental hygiene. Together with the students, Leos practiced brushing their teeth. Leos also provided the students with their own toothbrushes, toothpaste, and milk. "They were really excited with this activity because this is the first time they learned how to brush teeth properly," said a Leo volunteer.
Through activities like this, Leo clubs bring hope and laughter to children in need around the globe. Leo clubs that plan and implement projects to enrich the lives of children are eligible to receive a Spotlight on Children banner patch. Learn more about Spotlight on Children on LCI's website.

When natural disasters strike, Lions are there to offer help and support. In times of need, Lions rely on disaster relief grants and funds from Lions Clubs International Foundation (LCIF). Emergency grants provide up to US$10,000 for districts impacted by a natural disaster that has affected at least 100 people, including tornadoes, hurricanes, floods and tsunamis.
In March 2016, LCIF awarded 7 emergency and disaster relief grants totaling US$70,000. These grants are addressing immediate needs in:
Ecuador, District G 2
$10,000 for flood relief
Louisiana, USA, District 8 L
$10,000 for flood relief
Louisiana, USA, District 8 I
$10,000 for flood relief

Lions organize service activities throughout the U.S. – from park cleanups to 5K races, vision screenings to clothing drives, Lions clubs are vital to their community. As with any event open to family, friends and the public, it's important to consider the safety of those attending. If someone gets hurt while collecting trash on the beach or carrying boxes to the local food bank, your club may held legally responsible for resulting damages, injuries or legal claims. This is a common occurrence that has forced many clubs to dissolve or file bankruptcy as a result.
With current legislation, your club is at risk of losing its ability to help others.
If signed into law, the VOPA bill will provide enhanced protection to nonprofit organizations in the United States for harm caused by an individual volunteer in the performance of their service. This would protect U.S. Lions clubs from being drawn into lawsuits should an accident occur during a Lions club service activity or event.
With VOPA protecting your club, you can focus your resources on the needs of your community.
Contact your Member of Congress! The more representatives co-sponsor the VOPA, the higher the chances of the bill being signed into law and Lions clubs receiving the protection they deserve!
Write, call or visit your U.S. Senator or House Representatives, and urge him or her to support this important bill.

To make a successful batch of organic soap, it is important to use a base of oils that will be cleansing to the skin, as well as nourishing. Olive oil is just such an oil. When selecting an olive oil to use for soap making, look for one that is organically produced. Organic olive oil will not contain pesticides or herbicides, which could potentially irritate the skin. You can find organic olive oil to use for soap making at any health food store or natural market.

Pour 946ml of organic olive oil into a pot. Place a cooking thermometer into the pot to monitor the temperature. Heat the olive oil until it reaches 43.3 degrees Celsius.
- 2
Pour 227gr of lye into a glass. Add 473ml of water to the lye and stir well. Place a second cooking thermometer into the lye water. The lye will chemically react with the water and will create heat. When the lye water is 43.3 degrees Celsius, pour it into the olive oil.

Pour 1 tsp of an essential oil of your choice into the mixture. Stir the mixture with a wooden spoon until it thickens. This can take around 30 minutes.
- 4
Pour the mixture into a rectangular soap mould. Place the soap mould into a dark room for 7 weeks. This will allow the soap to cure and harden.
- 5
Remove the soap from the mould. Cut the soap into 1-inch thick squares.
