Yeah, Thanks
Thomas Jackson, you left your credit card in the check-in machine at the United counter of the Los Angeles airport. Sorry Mr. Jackson, I am for real. Unfortunately, so is the clerks' incompetence.
Thanksgiving brings many things to each of us, but chief among them is air travel. I am not flying home - I'm flying to Oregon for the night to perform at a show that many people will probably miss so they can fly home. But I still get to experience all the fun that comes with holiday travel. So does Mr. Jackson.
I found the credit card about 30 seconds after Mr. Jackson left the machine. I faced the gentleman behind the counter and said, "excuse me." He snapped back from his unnecessarily tall platform, "not now, I'm with someone." I politely told him that I understood, but a man left his credit card and the poor guy should be paged before he goes through security. Airport security is enough a nightmare once, no one needs to do it twice.
Ticket-boy snapped at me again. "I am with someone!" Which is probably not the description of his Thanksgiving plans, because I can't imagine the household that would welcome this embittered creature.
The people he was helping joined in and asked him to page Mr. Jackson. They said they could wait a few extra seconds to prevent a stranger from possibly missing his flight. But the fool on the hill refused. "I can only do one thing at a time!," he said, which was ironically exactly what we were asking him to do. Finally, I explained the situation to my clerk and said, "please do this before you check me in." She assured me they were doing everything they could. Which apparently included letting the card sit on the counter while Mr. Jackson went through security.
I didn't have to help Mr. Jackson. I could have kept his card and had some fun on an air phone, pillaged SkyMall, and ordered all the room service in Portland. I really did want to help. But airline customer service has gotten so bad, they don't even let other people be nice to their customers.
The clerks finally paged the guy - I heard it, while sitting at my gate.
My Thanksgiving travel got progressively worse. Already reeling from the airport traffic, the $30 parking fee, and the ticket clerks who were only United in being inconsiderate, the only electrical outlet at my gate was next to a grown man playing a song flute. Yes, the very same instrument I played in second grade. It's boring to wait for a flight, but buy a magazine! The US Weekly crossword is a lot less intrusive than a song flute. And a second grader could do that, too.
United boarded us all at once, so we had lots of time to wait in line for people to squish baggage into places where baggage doesn't fit. I was especially eager to get to my middle seat so that I could ring my call button and wait for the flight attendant to ignore it. That's a little game we have. I call it "What's the Point of These Buttons?"
I tried to sleep. But the guy to my right had a techno-filled IPod turned up so loud that I could feel every oocha oocha oocha. Which was perfect, since he fell asleep two minutes into the flight. He should give thanks I didn't dip the thing in my four ounce soda. I bet headphone man's relatives will be thrilled to see him. He'll walk in the door, and they'll shower him with presents of glow sticks and pacifiers.
Even if the guy to my right wasn't playing Rave Hits 19, the gentleman to my left decided that my stomach was an extension of his arm rest. After I gave him a result-less fourth dirty look, I finally said, "could you please stop elbowing me?" And he looked at me like I was the jerk. I wonder if the United ticket clerk will enjoy Thanksgiving at this guy's house, because they must be related.
Upon landing, the woman across from me took my bag out of the overhead and started going through it. After the second time I asked her to stop because it was not her bag, she said, "it looks a lot like my bag!" Which would make sense if it had any of the same stuff in it, or if the two bags were the same color.
There really is room on the market for a good airline. One that, for just $15 more per ticket, gives you food, and customer service, and the ability to sit more that two inches from a complete jerk. Billionaires, if you're reading this (and I know you are), I give you rights to the idea. You can call it "What Air Travel Was Until Pretty Recently Airlines."
The reason I'm staying in Los Angeles for Thanksgiving is not because I'm avoiding my family. It's because I'm avoiding the travel. The one positive moment of my Oregon trip came when my connecting flight left out of the same gate as my incoming flight. For the first time in my life (and probably the last). I was happy that one thing worked out, and I'd have a few minutes to eat a seven dollar burrito before I waited in line to play a spirited game of "What's the Point of These Buttons?"
Mr. Jackson, you probably did miss your flight. And in a way, I envy you.

Wigs. You put them on your head and they make you look like you have hair you don't really have. But in the end, they add nothing to the driving experience, and that's a real shame. UNTIL NOW!
In something to be filed in the "Why the hell didn't I think of that?" drawer, Sony is reportedly working to patent "smart wigs," which are hairy head-accessories with smartphone-like features, according to the BBC. Smart wigs — this should have happened years ago!
The smart wig falls under the same sort of "wearable technology" umbrella as Google Glass or the smartwatch. And like those devices, it has a potential benefit (if you want to call it that) when you get behind the wheel: with GPS technology it could help drivers navigate roads, the BBC says. Other functions include a sort of remote guidance:
It said that a small video camera or a sensor on the wig could help to provide the position and the location of the wearer.
A remote user can then use the images provided and send vibration commands through the network and navigate the wig user manually to a desired destination.
"Although navigation systems based on vibration motors have been widely introduced, a navigation system integrated into a wig... is so far not known," the firm said.
A further potential improvement of the wig may use ultrasound waves to detect objects around a user.
The future of wigs has arrived today, my friends! What a time to be alive.

Asilah (also Assilah, Arzila) is a city in northern Morocco.
Get in[edit]
By train[edit]
Asilah lies on the rail line linking Tangier to Rabat, Casablanca, Marrakech, Meknes, and Fez. The train station is a 2 km walk along the beach northeast of town; alternatively, minibuses (3Dh) sometimes meet the train in hopes of collecting passengers. It should also be easy to flag down a grand taxi along the road.
By bus[edit]
The "Gare Routière" for locations such as Fez, Meknes, Marrakesh is on main road opposite Shell gas station due east up street from northern end of the medina (walk past cemetary and turn left on main road one block to Shell station). To Meknes MD50; to Marrakesh MD130 (as of June 2011) The grand taxi rank is nearby with frequent Taxis to Tangier (20Dh) and Larache (15Dh) leaving when full.
From Tangier, you can hire a grand taxi for the ~1 hour drive to Asilah. The fare is about MD20 per seat. A whole taxi should thus not be more than MD180. Busses leave frequently from the Gare Routière for MD15. You can also get to Assilah directly from Tanger Airport. The price is fixed to 200 Dh per Taxi. Alternatively, the main road connecting Tanger and Asilah is 1.8km from the airport, where you can flag down a grand taxi that will take you to Asilah for 15Dh (there is much traffic, but most taxis don't go to Asilah, so you'll need some patience). This is much easier on the way back, where you'll just have to ask the driver to let you exit.
From Tetouan there are several Supratours buses (an extension of the ONCF rail system) that go to the Assilah train station, just outside of town. From there you can walk into town or catch a taxi. Check the ONCF website for times and buy tickets at the Supratours office on Avenue 10 Mai. The bus leaves from a few blocks away, in front of a cafe that has a blue and yellow ONCF sign outside. It does not leave from the main bus station.
From the main Gare, there is one bus leaving in the afternoon and may be more. Otherwise, unless you're willing to pay for a private grand taxi (probably around MD200), you'll have to go to Tangier first.
Get around[edit]
Cars are not allowed in the Medina, making walking the easiest form of transportation in Asilah proper. It's a small enough town that walking should not be a problem. Petit taxis are available if you need to go further, e.g. to the train station (2km north).
There are two main entry points to the medina:
See[edit][add listing]
Like most Moroccan towns, Asilah consists of a medina and a ville nouvelle. The medina is small, clean, and features wall paintings by African artists. North and east of the medina, the ville nouvelle is also pleasant.
Asilah hosts an art festival every August where they cover their walls in fantastic murals. You can spend a full day walking around the medina looking at these beautiful paintings.
Do[edit][add listing]
There are beautiful beaches both north and south of the town.
Buy[edit][add listing]
Eat[edit][add listing]
Due to its proximity to Spain and the large number of Spanish tourists it sees, Asilah's restaurants offer Spanish classics such as paella and tortilla in addition to the ubiquitous tagine and couscous. Many restaurants, including local seafood restaurants, are located along Ave Mohamed el Hassani, with covered terraces next the the southeast wall of the medina. Ask which ones serve beer or wine.
Drink[edit][add listing]
Enjoy mint tea in one of the cafes. Though a Moroccan town, Asilah is very touristy and has 2 liquor stores as well as several bars.
Sleep[edit][add listing]
Seaview Flat Marina Golf
This serviced apartment in the Asilah Marina Golf has a lovely sea view from both the living room and the bedroom, on the outskirts of the town often referred to as one of the most quiet and peaceful area, yet only thirty minutes from the larger cities such as Tangiers, the apartment has easy access to all amenities, including the local market for bargain hunting, and some excellent fish restaurants for eating out along the Paseo Maritimo. The apartment benefits from many communal pools, with a shallow end perfect for the children. The bedroom have stunning sea views. With one double bed and two single ones, the flat is ideal for 4 people, with plenty in the surrounding area to see and do during your stay. Many communal gardens as well as a tennis court are available. The residence has a 24hours security service. One private parking place is available in the basement as well as many communal parking.

The Dublin Irish Festival offers cultural and music areas, but academy classes will provide a more in-depth look at a few of the Irish arts.
The Dublin Irish Festival offers cultural and music areas, but academy classes will provide a more in-depth look at a few of the Irish arts.
The Dublin Irish Festival Academy will offer up seven different classes from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. Aug. 2 at the Dublin Crowne Plaza Hotel.
With lessons from bodhran to fiddle, the DIF Academy serves up lessons in Irish music in an intimate setting.
Piano Accompaniment for Irish Music will be offered for the first time and taught by Denis Cary, a Newport County Tipperary musician, composer and arranger.
Dublin Events Manager Alison LeRoy said she got hooked up with Carey through a friend of a friend who picked up his piano books for Celtic music.
"Piano is not the first instrument you think of with Irish music," LeRoy said, adding festival organizers couldn't resist putting the offering into the list of classes.
Students for the class must bring a keyboard to play.
"I think it'll draw either accomplished piano players or someone who loves Irish music," LeRoy said.
All of the classes are taught by musicians who play at the festival, with the exception of academy favorite Michael Vignoles.
Vignoles is a musician, but at the Dublin Irish Festival, he makes and sells bodhrans. His beginning bodhran class usually sells out.
"It's always the most popular class," LeRoy said of the class that teaches how to play the Irish drum. "You can walk in literally knowing nothing, but walk out being able to play."
Other classes offered at this year's DIF Academy include Tin Whistle with Kieran O'Hare, Irish two-row button accordion with Paul Brock and Irish Tenor Banjo with Garry O'Meara.
Classes on the fiddle will be taught by Liz Knowles and Manus McGuire.
Academy classes are $50 and include a one-day festival pass. Class size is limited and students must be 12 years old or older.
For more information, look online at Dublinirishfestival.org/ home-page/academy/.
The Dublin Irish Festival will run Aug. 2-4 at Coffman Park.

February 11, 2010
The Bipartisan Policy Center (BPC) plans to simulate a cyber attack on America's infrastructure on February 16, 2010. Dubbed Cyber ShockWave, the simulation "will provide an unprecedented look at how the government would develop a real-time response to a large-scale cyber crisis affecting much of the nation," according to a BPC press release issued today.
The "cyber attack is going to be war-gamed, in public, for all the country to see. It will be quite realistic, featuring senior intelligence and national security officials, including former directors of intelligence agencies and combatant commands and homeland security advisers," writes Marc Ambinder for The Atlantic.
Ambinder continues:
The sponsors of the event include companies with financial stakes in the future of cyber defense — General Dynamics is one — but also companies whose transactions are the lifeblood to the American economy, and who want to foster a greater sense of urgency among the public and policymakers.
In other words, a handful of well-placed corporations stand to make a fortune on the prospect of a cyber attack. In addition, a message will be sent to the Senate warning that it should pass "cybersecurity" legislation (a 2009 Senate bill would have given Obama the authority to shut down the internet).
General Dynamics is a leading death merchant at the very heart of the military industrial complex Eisenhower warned us about a few decades ago during the contrived so-called Cold War. "When it comes to military spending, the tradition of the 'iron triangle' — Congress, the Pentagon, and defense industries — joining to push costly weaponry is nothing new," Brad Knickerbocker wrote for The Christian Science Monitor.
BPC directors hail from Lockheed Martin, L-3 Communications (a spook merchant), JPMorgan Securities, and the Rockefeller connected Aspen Institute.
[efoods]The BPC effort to scare the American people and Congress into accepting the unlikely threat of cyber enemies taking down the country is part of an ignoble tradition consisting primarily of frightening taxpayers out of their hard-earned dollars. Instead of Osama bin Laden and the CIA-created al-Qaeda, this time around the culprits are Russia and China.
"Participants include John Negroponte, the first DNI, who will be the fictional Secretary of State. (Intel insiders will enjoy this role change.) Ex-DHS Secretary Michael Chertoff will be the National Security Adviser. Fran Townsend, the former White House Homeland Security Adviser, will be the secretary of DHS. Former CIA deputy director John McLaughlin will be the Director of National Intelligence. Other big-name participants include Jamie Gorelick, Stewart Baker, Joe Lockhart and Bennet Johnson," writes Ambinder.
The BPC advisory board consists of seasoned establishment insiders, including Howard Baker, Tom Daschle, Bob Dole, and George Mitchell.
In short, a mix of neocons and neolibs at the very epicenter of the establishment.
Last July, the BPC, "[b]uilding on the [sic] highly acclaimed work of the 9/11 Commission," announced the launch of the National Security Preparedness Group "to further examine the changing threats to the United States." Under the leadership of "9/11 Commission Chair, Thomas H. Kean, and Vice Chair, Lee H. Hamilton, the NSPG will focus its efforts on national intelligence, terrorism, and security issues, continuing the work of the National Commission on Terrorist Attacks Upon the United States (9/11 Commission) and its successor, the 9/11 Public Discourse Project," according to a BPC press release published by PR Newswire.
The above BPC promotion video insinuates that the cyber threat will likely come from China and Russia.
China's alleged cyber attack last month was blown out of proportion by Google, the government, and the corporate media. The mischaracterized attack against Google went down a few weeks before the search engine corporation announced plans to merge with the NSA, aka "No Such Agency.".
"The attack on Google involved attempts to access the Gmail accounts of Chinese human rights activists, but only two accounts were accessed and the contents of e-mails were not exposed — only account information like the date the account was created, Google said," Elinor Mills wrote for CNet News on January 13. "Separately, Google discovered that accounts of dozens of Gmail users in the U.S., China, and Europe who are human rights advocates 'appear to have been routinely accessed by third parties,' not through a security breach at Google, but most likely as a result of phishing scams or malware placed on the users' computers, the company said." Google later admitted its products and customer data were not affected by the attack.
In 2008, it appears Russian hackers attacked Georgian computer networks — after Georgia launched a military attack South Ossetia. "The attacks ultimately prompted the Georgian governmental sites to switch to U.S. based hosts, while Georgia's Ministry of Foreign Affairs moved to a blogspot account," reported Stefanie Hoffman for ChannelWeb. Russia did not attack the servers based in the United States.
The planned BPC simulated attack will be staged less than two weeks after the House overwhelmingly passed The Cybersecurity Enhancement Act (H.R. 4061). "The bill, which passed 422-5, requires the Obama administration to conduct an agency-by-agency assessment of cybersecurity workforce skills and establishes a scholarship program for undergraduate and graduate students who agree to work as cybersecurity specialists for the government after graduation," The New York Times reported at the time.
The bill is now in the Senate for consideration.
In March of 2009, Infowars.com reported on comments made by senator Jay Rockefeller, the great-grandson of John D. Rockefeller, nephew of banker David Rockefeller, and former Senate Intelligence Committee Chairman. Rockefeller said the internet represents a serious threat to national security. Rockefeller was not alone in this assessment. His belief that the internet is the "number one national hazard" to national security is shared by the former Director of National Intelligence Mike McConnell and Obama's current director Admiral Dennis C. Blair. "It really almost makes you ask the question would it have been better if we had never invented the internet," said Rockefeller.
Rockefeller's bills introduced in the Senate — known as the Cybersecurity Act of 2009 — would create yet another government bureaucracy, the Office of the National Cybersecurity Advisor. It would report directly to Obama. Rockefeller's legislation would grant "the Secretary of Commerce access to all privately owned information networks deemed to be critical to the nation's infrastructure "without regard to any provision of law, regulation, rule or policy restricting such access" (see a working draft of the legislation here).
In fact, these supposed threats are wildly exaggerated. "It is alarming that so many people have accepted the White House's assertions about cyber-security as a key national security problem without demanding further evidence. Have we learned nothing from the WMD debacle? The administration's claims could lead to policies with serious, long-term, troubling consequences for network openness and personal privacy," writes Evgeny Morozov for The Boston Review. "Much of the data are gathered by ultra-secretive government agencies — which need to justify their own existence — and cyber-security companies — which derive commercial benefits from popular anxiety. Journalists do not help. Gloomy scenarios and speculations about cyber-Armageddon draw attention, even if they are relatively short on facts."
It is business as usual — the government and large corporations setting off fire alarms in order to stampede the American people into the government's high-tech surveillance and control grid, an operation that will reward the likes of General Dynamics and L-3 Communications handsomely.
The BPC's Cyber ShockWave will take place on February 16, 2010 at the Mandarin Oriental Hotel in Washington, DC. The simulation will begin at 10:00AM followed by a question and answer session with the participants, the audience and media.
Concerned citizens may want to attend and ask why the government and an insider think-tank stacked with neocons, neolibs, death merchants, and spook corporations are pushing a largely contrived threat on the American people.

M&S plans giant facility at DP World London
London, June 10, 2013
Top British retailer Marks & Spencer (M&S) has signed an agreement with DP World London Gateway to build a major distribution centre at the new deep-sea container port and logistics park in South Essex at an estimated cost of £200 million ($311 million).
The mammoth 900,000 sq ft facility will be used to store clothing, home and gifts before they are transported to UK and international M&S stores.
On completion, Marks & Spencer will start moving millions of products directly from ships to the company's hi-tech warehousing facility at the adjacent London Gateway Logistics Park, said a company statement.
London Gateway's south east location gives M&S closer access to key UK cities which means goods will not travel as far to reach consumers, it stated.
This model will be both cost effective for M&S and remove millions of lorry miles from UK roads along with thousands of tonnes of CO2, it added.
The announcement, which marks a major milestone in the development of the 1,500-acre site, was welcomed by Prime Minister David Cameron, who visited DP World London Gateway this morning and discussed global trade with an audience of 150 business leaders.
As part of its £200 million investment at DP World's London Gateway, M&S will create approximately 700 jobs; there will also be hundreds of additional workers employed in the construction phase, said its top official.
"London Gateway will become our third large distribution centre in the UK as we transform our logistics operations into a modern and agile supply chain, fit for the future of M&S," remarked Marc Bolland, the chief executive of Marks & Spencer.
"As we become an international, multichannel retailer, London Gateway will help us become more efficient by cutting costs and locating our supply chain closer to our stores and our international markets. It will also help us deliver against our Plan A objectives by removing road miles and emissions from our network," he added.
DP World chairman Sultan Ahmed Bin Sulayem said: "We are proud to be able to contribute to the UK economy by providing a more efficient and more reliable global supply chain infrastructure, to the benefit of British business and British consumers. This is a great place and a great time to be talking about global trade."
Group CEO Mohammed Sharaf said: "Marks & Spencer is a world renowned and trusted brand that is today setting the pace for other UK businesses, leading the way in taking advantage of the benefits of new infrastructure and an outstanding location. We are very pleased to welcome them as the first tenant at our London Gateway Logistics Park."
Simon Moore, the CEO of DP World London Gateway, said: "M&S will have a world-class distribution centre connected to a world-class deep-sea port providing more reliability and efficiency for its business. By bringing ships carrying millions of products closer to the point of consumption we will help M&S to shorten its supply chain."
"We will also support M&S exports from London Gateway. We look forward to working alongside them now and in the many years to follow," he added.
Marks & Spencer is one of the UK's leading multi-channel retailers with 766 stores in the UK and 420 international stores and nine dedicated international websites in over 50 territories in Europe, the Middle East and Asia.-TradeArabia News Service

My father, Francis Joseph Danko, passed from this life on 04 January 2012. As much as my family knew this day was coming, it still seemed that we were unprepared for his death.
One of the most important decisions we had to make was the choice of a church in which to hold the funeral. The Church of St. Vincent de Paul in Albany, New York, the church we had attended as a family, did not seem like a suitable choice because the church no longer had a permanent pastor and we would have had to bring a priest in from somewhere else to celebrate the Mass of Christian Burial.
We had decided that McVeigh Funeral Home would conduct the funeral since McVeigh's had arranged the funeral for my father's sister Helen and we were familiar with them. Besides, the funeral home was just up the street from our old family home. We had also decided that my father would be buried in Our Lady of Angels Cemetery where several other family members, including my mother, were buried.

We decided, then, to hold the funeral at the Church of the Blessed Sacrament, around the corner from the funeral home and on the same street as the cemetery. In December, my father had asked to see a priest and Father John Bradley from Blessed Sacrament came by to visit Dad and administer the Anointing of the Sick. Blessed Sacrament is still a thriving parish in Albany, close to our old home, close to the funeral home, and close to the cemetery.
My sister and I met with Father Anthony Gulley who would celebrate the Mass. We discussed my father's life and made some decisions about the details of the funeral. Father Gulley asked me to choose the first two readings and I decided on readings that would emphasize the belief in life after death. I read the first reading from 2 Maccabees 12:43-46:
A reading from the second Book of Maccabees
Judas, the ruler of Israel, took up a collection among all his soldiers, amounting to two thousand silver drachmas, which he sent to Jerusalem to provide for an expiatory sacrifice. In doing this he acted in a very excellent and noble way, inasmuch as he had the resurrection of the dead in view; for if he were not expecting the fallen to rise again, it would have been useless and foolish to pray for them in death. But if he did this with a view to the splendid reward that awaits those who had gone to rest in godliness, it was a holy and pious thought. Thus he made atonement for the dead that they might be freed from this sin.
The word of the Lord.
My cousin Karen, my father's Goddaughter, read the second reading from Romans 6:3-9:
A reading from the Letter of Saint Paul to the Romans
Brothers and sisters:
Are you unaware that we who were baptized into Christ Jesus were baptized into his death? We were indeed buried with him through baptism into death, so that, just as Christ was raised from the dead by the glory of the Father, we too might live in newness of life.
For if we have grown into union with him through a death like his, we shall also be united with him in the resurrection. We know that our old self was crucified with him, so that our sinful body might be done away with, that we might no longer be in slavery to sin. For a dead person has been absolved from sin. If, then, we have died with Christ, we believe that we shall also live with him. We know that Christ, raised from the dead, dies no more; death no longer has power over him.
The word of the Lord.
Later in the service, and again at the gravesite, Father Gulley recited the Prayer of St. Francis, my father's patron saint, and the patron saint whose name I took for my confirmation name:
Lord, make me an instrument of your peace. Where there is hatred, let me sow love; where there is injury, pardon; where there is doubt, faith; where there is despair, hope; where there is darkness, light; and where there is sadness, joy.
O Divine Master, grant that I may not so much seek to be consoled as to console; to be understood as to understand; to be loved as to love. For it is in giving that we receive; it is in pardoning that we are pardoned; and it is in dying that we are born to eternal life. Amen
Rest in peace, Dad. You will always be in our hearts.

I like to change up my food so I don't get bored. My kids don't appreciate that so much, neither does Aaron. What I have been doing lately is when I make them a "traditional" dish, I will often make small changes to my meal to create some variety. I have also been eating a lot less meat lately. No, I am not becoming a "vegetarian", I like my chicken & steak (filet) too much. However, on a day-to-day basis, my stomach & body tend to feel much better the less meat I eat. My non-meat sources of protein come from nut butters, eggs (mostly egg whites with an occasional yolk thrown in), tuna, salmon, beans (black, garbanzo, kidney, northern, black-eyed peas), nuts & cheese. I do some soy, but not a lot. I mainly do edamame if I do any soy. I drink almond milk, not cow's milk (due to lactose intolerance, but cheese is okay with Lactaid). Anyway, I digress. Tonight I made Mexican pizzas with refried beans, ground turkey taco meat & cheese for the family and did mine up a little different.
My Mexican pizza consisted of the following:
- black beans (drained & rinsed) mixed with a touch of sriracha
- crumbled goat cheese
- avocado
- chopped tomatoes
- plain Greek Fage
- Frank's Red Hot
They were amazing!! YUM!! Also, instead of using store made tostada shells, I took 2 soft corn tortillas & placed them on an oven sheet @ 350 for about 10 minutes on one side & 3-4 minutes on the other side. The I topped with the bean mixture & goat cheese and popped back in the oven to get all melty. YUM! Oh, another exciting find? Trader Joe's frozen avocado halves! Genius! I am the only one in my house that will eat avocado and they turn brown after I cut them open no matter what I do! Very frustrating & expensive!! These halves are perfect! I used a half and split it between my pizzas. Perfect!! No waste!

Google wants girls to code and is willing to spend $50 million to encourage them with "Made with Code" events.
The first event was in New York City where 150 female high school students were inspired to see technology as a possible career and learn simple coding techniques, according to USA Today.
"Our industry has lots of stereotypes, including the notion that coding means sitting at a computer alone," Google Vice President Megan Smith said. "We hope to show girls that coding is fun. But there's also the simple fact that supply and demand is not working. There are millions of jobs out there going begging."
U.S. & World
News from around the country and around the globe
The event had an eclectic bunch of speakers including Chelsea Clinton and comedy actor/writer Mindy Kaling, and taught the students basic coding to create bracelets. Google also promised to give money to host girl-coding events and educating the public.
"It's hard to imagine being something you can't see," Clinton said, noting that the number of women graduating with computer-science degrees has dropped from nearly 40 percent in the '80s to 14 percent today. "The issue of role models is a big one, and (Made with Code) represents a new, comprehensive effort to provide just that."
The event is highlighting projections that mean coding jobs will be rising but few will be qualified for those jobs. The numbers are lower for women, especially when Google just released numbers that 70 percent of its employees were male.
While Google could be seen as a wonderful benefactor, it's also in Google's best interests for more girls to get involved in programming. As their need for coding increases, they will also have a larger pool of candidates.

Koulouria - Greek Cookies
I love the smell of freshly cooked Greek cookies during the Easter time. You can make them at any time of the year of course but traditionally they are made during Easter The ingredients are simple to gather but it does require some work to get the dough right, that's the tricky bit. As most of you would know it does take a couple of tries to get the recipes right so if you don't get it right the first time have another try.
The amount of ingredients used below would make about 140 koulouria, rather a large amount if you just making them for family, so adjust the amounts accordingly.
Patates me avga (Potatoes and eggs)
This is a quick and easy recipe that you can whip up in about 15 minutes. I don't know where this originated exactly but I can remember eating this way back when I was a little tacker. As a youngster I always had this with potatoes and eggs but over the years I've modified it by adding other ingredients, such as mushrooms, peppers etc, just as most people do with scrambled eggs. When I made this and took a photo I used mushrooms (I couldn't resist).
4 eggs
3 potatoes
4 eggs
3 potatoes
I love this recipe, and one of my favorite Greek recipes, it looks similar to Lasagnia but that's where the differences end. It uses thick spaghetti rather than sheets of pasta. It takes some time to prepare but is well worth it in the end. It takes about 30 mins to prepare and about 45 minutes to cook.
Avgolemono (Lemon mixture)
This mixture is used to add to the chicken soup if you want some tang in your soup. It can be used for other soups which is why I have created a seperate recipe. The Greek word avgolemono is a combination of two words, the first is avgo (egg) and lemoni (lemon). So you only require 2 ingredients for this but enhances the taste of the chicken soup two fold.
Kotosoupa (Chicken soup)
This recipe is very easy and is one of my favourites during winter. It's very easy to make and takes roughly 30-40 minutes to make.
Psarosoupa (Fish soup)
This fish soup is another favourite for the winter months, try and get the flathead or whaterver fish your using as fresh as possible. Also be extra careful in removing all the bones from the flesh.
Chicken with potatoes (Kota me patates)
Here's a recipe that's quick to prepare but takes about 1 hour and 45 minutes to cook. I love this one because I can prepare it in the morning and place it in the fridge and place in the oven ahead of time.

Hakeem Olajuwon, who met with Dwight Howard as part of the Rockets' contingent on Sunday night, likes the team's chances of landing the coveted free agent.
"It's an 85 percent chance he ends up in Houston," Olajuwon said in an Wednesday interview with ThePostGame, a Yahoo! Sports blog. "You never know, but after that meeting we had, I feel very comfortable that we have the best chance to get him."
Howard, who also met with the Hawks, Warriors, Mavericks and Lakers, is reportedly in Aspen, Colo., contemplating his future.
According to an ESPN.com report, the 27-year-old center hopes to make a decision by Friday.
If winning is Howard's ultimate goal, Olajuwon, who led the Rockets to back-to-back NBA titles during his Hall of Fame career, says the choice is simple.
"If you truly want to win a championship, this is the right team," he said. "And I think he feels the sincerity that this is a true opportunity to make something special."
If Howard does come to Houston, his name would be added to the team's legacy of great big men: Olajuwon, Elvin Hayes, Moses Malone, Ralph Sampson and Yao Ming.
