She has needs, ya know...

While we were in Utah Eden became very vocal about her needs. She would say,
"I need mom."
"I need outside."
"I need cracker (or cookie, or cooker - which obviously is a cracker-cookie)"

but two of my favorites were these:

While driving from Alpine (south of SLC) to Cache Valley (north of SLC) there was a bad accident and the interstate was shut down. We had to travel on a slower highway (with everyone else) and so the trip that usually takes two hours took four. Eden was frustrated, tired, and eventually just mad. It was snowing and we were creeping along at about five miles an hour. I could only show her the cattle truck we kept passing so many times before she had just had it. Finally about a half hour from grandma's house she began to cry huge, fat, wet tears. In the middle of her sobs she repeated,
"I need grandma, I need grandma."
It was so sweet and sad.

A few days later at grandma's house (actually I think it was at aunt Heather's) we had just finished a big meal. Everyone was sitting around talking. There was a plate of my mother's hand dipped chocolates on the table. Eden walked up to the group of women sitting around talking and proclaimed,
"I need chocolate!"

It was classic.

Food Friday - Char Siu Pork

I got this recipe from my sister but haven't made it yet. She made it for us Monday night though and it was really delicious so I pass it along to you, my faithful readers. (the parenthetical notes are my sister's)
1/4 cup soy sauce
1/4 cup hoisin sauce (I didn't have any hoisin sauce so I didn't add it, it was great without it, but maybe its even better with it)
3 TBS ketchup
3 TBS honey
2 tsp minced garlic
1 tsp ground ginger (or 2 tsp fresh)
1 tsp dark sesame oil
1/2 tsp Chinese five spice powder
2 lbs boneless pork roast (I got a cheap roast with the bone in and it worked fine)
1/2 cup chicken broth
Mix ingredients together. Marinate for 2 hours (I did this but next time I will just cook it with out marinating it). Cover and cook for 8 hours.
I shredded it after about 5 or so hours and then put the meat back in for and hour or so. I served it over rice. Very easy and yummy.

Merry Christmas

We are enjoying
LOTS of SNOW and
LOTS of LOVE and
LOTS of PRESENTS (especially Eden - I think her toy inventory just doubled).

We wish you all a very Merry Christmas and hope that we and you can find a little time today to reflect on the Son of God who condescended to become the Babe of Bethlehem. Without Him we would be lost - in every sense.

Food Friday - Holiday Slush

Hello Bamafam readers. This is BamDaddy here. I'm retro-posting Food Friday for this Christmas week. When I suggested a recipe to Heidi, she reminded me that I could also post on this blog. Silly Daddy. So I want to share with you a favorite Kesler family recipe that we always enjoy on Christmas Eve. I know there are a lot of slushes around out there, and maybe you've had this before. Anyway, here goes:

2 cans frozen concentrate orange juice + 1 can water
2 cans frozen concentrate lemonade + 1 can water
46 oz. can pineapple juice
3-4 bananas - smashed
7-Up (or Sprite)

• Mix juices in the blender.
• Add banana.
• Blend well.
• Put into containers for freezing (we usually use big canning jars with metal lids, but anything you can freeze will work.
• Mix Frozen Concentrate with 7-Up to desired consistency (we just use our KitchenAid to blend it) serve.

Enjoy! Merry Christmas slushing from me (us)!

Cutest Mary

My sister participates in a preschool for her 4 year old boy. There are 5 little boys in their neighborhood and each mother takes a week to teach the preschool (which meets two mornings a week). This week is her week to teach and so she had them do the Nativity. Alas, with 5 boys who would play Mary?

She was so cute. During the actual program, Eden held the baby up to her shoulder and rocked him and gently said, "baby, baby, baby." It was just so adorable!

BTW: anyone interested in starting one of these preschool deals in a year? oh, you'd have to be willing to travel to 'bama.

This was NOT in my Franklin

My plans for Monday:
8:00 a.m. - take Voice Male clothes to dry cleaner
9:30 a.m. - watch Eden participate in a Nativity play (as Mary)
10:30 a.m. - visit Irene
11:30 a.m. - visit Charlotte
12:30 p.m. - attend the USU Registrar's Office Christmas party (have lots and lots of fun laughing with old friends and remembering good times and agreeing as everyone goes on and on about how cute Eden is)
2:00 p.m. - put Eden down for a nap and do laundry

How Monday actually went:
4:30 a.m. - wake up with a bad stomachache, lay on the couch
8:00 a.m. - take Voice Male clothes to dry cleaner - Convince a really nice woman to rush our 9 pairs of pants and 12 shirts so that I can pick them up Tuesday
9:00 a.m. - lay on the couch
10:00 a.m. - watch Eden (while moaning on the couch) as Mary in the cutest pre-school version of the Nativity (five preschool boys and my Eden)
10:30 a.m. - yeah, you guessed it, the couch which is where I spent the remainder of my day (except when I moved to my dad's bed so I could watch some mindless television. Did you know that Kirby Heyborne was in a Lifetime original Christmas movie this year?)
2:00 p.m. - watched my mom do my laundry (thanks mom!)
3:30 a.m. Tuesday - finally feel well enough to get some sleep
6:30 a.m. pack up everything, pick up the VM dry cleaning and go pick Phil up at the airport.

We got to Phil's parents' house and he left for the Thanksgiving Point show afterwhich Eden promptly puked her guts out all over me. Poor Eden, she hasn't ever thrown up before. She was pretty upset by it all but rebounded quickly and, for now, is sleeping. . .

Just as I wrote that, she woke up. Now it is several hours later and she is attempting to sleep.

yeah, not what I had planned at all . . .

Food Friday

Ok, this isn't a recipe, it is a wonderful tip instead. In Utah, there is a restaurant (popular for their catering and wedding luncheons) named "The Lion House." They have some of the best recipes and are especially famous for their rolls and breads. Well, if you do a google search with "Lion House Recipe" you will find a treasure trove of great stuff. So, while the Food Friday Czar is on holiday, get your recipe fix from The Lion House, you won't regret it.

And what did I do on Friday (instead of Food Friday)?

Well, I dipped all kinds of yummy chocolates with my mom, aunt Deani, brother Josh, and sister Heather. Such a fun family tradition! Then I went to the Ogden Voice Male concert. It was good. The audience gave them two standing ovations. Fun times.

Now it is snowing ... yippee!!!

T'is the Season

The Christmas season seems to bring out the best and worst in society.

I may offend some of my faithful readers but I detest the whole concept of black Friday. To me it says, "let's interrupt what is to be a weekend of giving thanks and family and instead wake up early so we are grouchy then go spend the day consuming instead of giving thanks and in some cases being rude to other customers instead of enjoying our families." I mean stampedes to the point of death?? Really? What kind of society is this? I see shoppers frantically purchasing things because they feel expected to provide a gift. What happened to spending weeks in thoughtful preparation to show appreciation and admiration? It makes me sad to see how consumer-oriented the holidays are. This year we have the added, dualistic pressures of the recession: money is tighter, yet it is our patriotic duty to stimulate the economy. Sad.

On the other hand, people are so very generous during this time of year. I love to hear of and see people taking care of others. I see people reaching out to make sure children and adults have some kind of gift Christmas morning. Even in the midst of the recession, people give to the food pantry or to their neighbors. I love to see homes opened up to welcome the lonely into the circle of love and friendship and family during the holidays. There seriously is so much good that is done.

It seems that often during the year we think about giving in more global terms. We give to organizations (our church, non-profits, government agencies) but at Christmastime we more often reach out to individuals in our midst. It reminds me of a section in C.S. Lewis's book The Screwtape Letters*, in which Screwtape tells Wormwood, “Do what you will, there is going to be some benevolence, as well as some malice, in your patient’s soul. The great thing is to direct the malice to his immediate neighbours whom he meets every day and to thrust his benevolence out to the remote circumference, to people he does not know. The malice thus becomes wholly real and the benevolence largely imaginary."

I love that at Christmas we show our benevolence in ways that it becomes wholly real. I hope that I extend that reality throughout the year.

*The Screwtape Letters is a fictional account of Screwtape (a devil) training his nephew (Wormwood) in the art of temptation. It is such an insightful and interesting book, I highly recommend it (and pretty much any of Lewis's books).

Hats, Hats, Hats

Today at the chemo clinic a lady was going around to all the chemo patients and giving them hats (I think hers were knitted). I says to myself, "self, why didn't you thinks of that?" So, act fast, next year's Christmas Lottery just might end up in the chemo clinic.

Congrats to those who have won so far. I think there are just a couple left.

Oh, and Phil got a nice light blue hat (even though he hasn't lost his hair ... yet?).

These are a Few of Her Favorite Things...

Eden loves books. She likes to carry them around and read them and look at them and sometimes draw in them (she's usually pretty good to choose her drawing books wisely).

A few of her favorite books to cart around these days are her For the Strength of Youth, Personal Progress, and PP Journal* (yeah, her mom is a YW President). She especially likes to show people the pictures of the temple on each of them. She even built a temple (or "temper" as she calls it) with her megablocks this week.

Eden remains fiercely devoted to her love of all things kitty. This picture captures another new favorite thing. She LOVES all the Christmas lights up right now. She calls them "happy" and will point to all the "happy trees" along our main street in town (no, it isn't called Main Street it is just the main street). We are excited to combine the previous happy thing (SL Temple) with the lights when we head out there later this month. She will love the lights on temple square**!

Elmo is still a love. She isn't obsessed like she once was but she still loves him. She sings his theme song (you know, la la la la) with an extra syllable (alla alla) it is pretty funny.
Like her father, Eden loves graham crackers!

And finally, Corrie. She also loves hats and has a couple that I made her that she likes to wear around. But this is not about the hat Corrie won and is modeling on her blog, this is about how much Eden loves Corrie. She says, "Corrie, happy." Yup, she is.

*For the Strength of Youth - a booklet put out by the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints to help youth understand and live the standards of Christ.

Personal Progress - a program for young women (12-18) in the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. It helps YW learn about their Savior and also teaches them to set goals and acquire skills. There is an accompanying journal to help them record the things they learn.

**The area around the Salt Lake temple is called "temple square." At Christmas time the square is lit beautifully. There are awesome nativities throughout the square and of course the large statue of Christ in the north visitor's center. It is a beautiful, happy place.

Muay Thai Atlanta – Excellent Trainers

  Muay Thai arises from the Muay martial arts in Thailand. It is a combat sport which is based on a variety of clinching techniques in addition to stand-up striking methods. It is also known as “the art of eight weapons” simply because it is a physical and mental discipline characterized by using a combination of feet, fists, knees, shins, as well as elbows. It is regarded as being a very efficient fighting technique. Although martial art became popular within Thailand in the sixteenth century, it did not gain widespread international recognition until the twentieth century. This occurred only when a large number of Thai fighters, using this fighting style as their technique, gained victories over fighters who were using other styles of martial arts. Muay Thai techniques are formally divided into two separate groups: Mae mai, in other words, major techniques. Luk mai, or minor techniques. To people who don’t know anything about it, the sport is regarded as a sport of attrition, whereby the opponents exchange blows in an effort to overcome the other. In reality, the highest level relies on rhythm, timing, and deceptive footwork to overcome opponents with skill and ease.

Telling the FDA What I Think About ALS Drug Trials

As readers of this  blog know, I have taken issue with a number of things related to how ALS drug trials are run. Some people at the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) read my blog and the comments to them. In response, the Agency has set up a public hearing for February 25 in the Washington, D.C. area to consider  comments on the FDA’s “Regulation of Clinical  Trials  of Drugs for the Treatment and/or Management of ALS.”

Since traveling to hearing was out of the question for me, I submitted a written statement for the FDA’s consideration. Below is the statement I submitted, but without the pictures.

The agency wants to hear from you.

The agency wants to hear from you.

If you have things to say to the FDA on this topic, you have until March 25, 2013 to submit a written statement. Go to /, search for the name of the hearing, click on that name when you locate it, and you will see how to submit a comment.

Gentle Persons:

As someone living with ALS and a health activist, I very much appreciate the opportunity to submit my thoughts about improving ALS clinical trials. I have commented many times on this topic at my blog, Healthy Barbs, at

For a disease that is so devastating and that has seen so few advances in treatment, it is time to consider patient needs in the design of clinical trials to a degree that has not been demonstrated to date. I think this can and should be done in five areas:

— Trial eligibility

— Subset analyses to deal with new devices or drugs that become available after a trail has started

— Expanded access

— Release of data from negative trials

— Independent trial ombudsman

Trial Eligibility

It is my understanding that all ALS drug trials limit participation to patients are less than 2 years from diagnosis to. Given that most ALS patients live longer than 2 years, this eligibility requirement excludes many people from participating in trials. People with more advanced ALS also want to participate in trials, and may benefit from any drug found to work for people with less advanced disease. Drug trial sponsors should not be permitted to limit trial access to patients within 2 years of diagnosis.

Subset Analyses Should Be Required

In the EMPOWER trial of dexpramipexole, several patients, including me, wanted to get a diaphragm pacer while in the trial. The pacer was not excluded when the trial started. The exclusion was added in a later consent form — I believe it was the fourth one. The trial was near it’s end, so that there was sufficient data from participants who had joined the trial early on. The trial required at least 12 months of participation; I had been enrolled at the point for 15 month. I requested that the sponsor either abandon the pacer exclusion or commit to subset analysis that would permit me and those like me to stay in the trial without sacrificing of the possible life-extending benefits of the pacer. I was rebuffed at every turn.

I did learn later that subset analysis was done on the dex data.

Given the range of health challenges that ALS patients face, clinical trials that test only  one drug or device leave participants with terrible choices. If sponsors of large Phase III trials were required to subject their data to subset analyses that include patients on a second drug or with a device that might improve quality or length of life, the patients will have more incentives to participate in trials and sponsors would recruit trial participants faster.

Expanded Access

In light of the constraints on ALS clinical trials and the absence of treatment options, it is imperative for patients that each Phase III trial have an expanded access component whereby patients, with their doctor’s support, could have access to the drug despite their ineligibility to participate in the trial. There are many ways to structure such programs. It’s the concept that has to be a commitment required of sponsors.

Release of Data from Negative Trials

The field of ALS drug research is littered with the detritus of negative trials. Negative trials can also be informative, but  only when the data from the negative trials are publicly released. The FDA should require sponsors to release to the public the  data gathered in negative trials, with appropriate safeguards for patients privacy.

Independent Trial Ombudsman

In large trials, sponsors should be required to appoint independent ombudsman to address

Let your voice be heard.

Let your voice be heard.

the concern of trial participants. The CEO of the sponsor is hardly a position to address those concerns, having the shareholders interest as his/her primary concern.

I hope the FDA will take these concerns and suggestions seriously.

This morning on my slot on 4FM with Gareth O Callaghan, I talked about books and the joy of escaping into a well written book. I am not one for thrillers, true life crime or gritty reality. No, my favourite type of book is a well written story full of quirky and well drawn characters. Bearing that in mind I mentioned some of my all time favourites, which are:

This is a great book especially if you own a dog. It is narrated by Enzo the family dog who is in his twilight years. Enzo is a wise old soul, who believes in reincarnation (he can’t wait to come back as a man with thumbs) and loves to watch motor racing on the TV. But this isn’t Marley and Me. Enzo tells us the story of family who deal with love, loss, trauma and illness. It is beautifully written and really gets under your skin as a story. You will laugh and cry and in the end you will look at your own dog in a whole new light.

This is a very charming book which tells us the story of Mr Rosenblum and his attempt to become the perfect English Gentleman. As you might guess the Rosenblums are German Jews and Mrs Rosenblum does not share her husbands obsession about becoming English. She works hard to remember where they have come from and protect their culture. But her husband leads them on a wonderful adventure in a rural English village which is comic but ultimately poignant. A great story, gently told. Takes a wee while to get started – so bear with it for the first couple of chapters.

I bought this book on a whim as a gift for a friend and borrowed it back as soon as I could. Set in the deep south of America it tells the story of the two Waverly sisters who live in a big house that has been in their family for generations. Magic is all around as the garden blooms all year around and has a particularly special apple tree. Claire Waverly is a caterer who makes treats and cakes using ingredients from her magic garden – so that her confections can have strange affects on those who eat them. Their perfect life gets somewhat ruffled when a new neighbor moves in next store and ivy starts to grow in the garden. A book to curl up with and dream about later.

A prolific writer Alexander McCall Smith is a charming Scotsman who only began writing after a long and successful career in law. To date he has written about 60 books and is probably best known for his No 1 Ladies Detective Agency series which is set in Botswana. However I love his Scottish books particularly his Isabel Dalhousie series. Isabel Dalhousie is a philosopher who edits a monthly journal and is hugely interested in people and in moral dilemmas. This can regularly lead her to get involved in other people’s issues more than she probably should. These books are set in Edinburgh, McCall Smith’s home town which he clearly loves. The descriptions of the city and the gentle pace of these books make them such relaxing reads.

So these are some of my very favourite books. If you like the same kind of books I do, I would love your suggestions for my reading list!

And don't forget to tune in every Saturday to 4FM for Gareth O Callaghan's 'Anything Goes' programme - a great magazine programme for a Saturday morning.

Rachel Uchitel - Mistress in Tiger Woods Affair?

The Tiger Woods cheating wife saga has continued to branch out. Now, it seems the third party involved is a woman named Rachel Uchitel. Mediatakeout says that they got this scoop from National Enquirer. However, with more digging on who Rachel Uchitel is, it seems we figured that this rumor is somewhat unreliable and too schmaltzy if true. Major drama if this is confirmed.

Rachel Uchitel (the woman in white blazer) is the same woman that actor David Boreanaz has allegedly cheated his wife on while she was pregnant. If the Tiger Woods affair with Rachel Uchitel is true, then are they sharing the same mistress? Eew... For where ever these rumours about the Tiger Woods affair are heading, then let's just pretend it's not true for now. Unless more reliable sources will spill the beans on it, we're still not buying the National Enquirer's scoop.

Evangelism and Discipleship Training Trip – Gimunu, Pakula, Jamara, Mundu, Kanchu, Pakire, Kopera, Limbe, Sudan

In March, 2008 Pastor Jackson Abari and his 9 person evangelism team traveled northeast to Gimunu, Pakula, Jamara, Mundu, Kanchu, Pakire, Kopera, and Limbe, Sudan. The team left Yei, Sudan on March 15 and returned on April 10.

The results of what God did through the evangelism team are listed below:

Village Indicated Decisions For Christ
Gimunu 1,200
Pakula 900
Jamara 1,800
Mundu 2,500
Kanchu 3,000
Pakire 850
Kopera 1,700
Limbe 1,900
Total 13,850

Approximately 40% of the new believers had been animists, and 2% had been Muslims. The JESUS Film was shown in the Bari language to mainly the Kakwa, Pojulu, and Kuku tribes. Follow-up of the new believers will be handled by the Evangelical Presbyterian Church, the Episcopal Church of Sudan, and the Sudan Pentecostal Church. A total of 400 bibles were distributed in the Bari language.

Discipleship training was conducted using the following verses: Psalm 68:3; Psalm 107:42; Matthew 5:11; Luke 6:23; Romans 5:3.

Not yet, Bates County...

You might have heard that the Missouri Department of Conservation recently added 12 counties to those already who are banned from feeding grain, mineral, salt or other products to deer.

For the record Bates County is NOT on the list. At least not yet.

According to the Wildlife Code of Missouri, the placement of products used to attract deer is prohibited year-round within counties of the CWD Management Zone. Exceptions are feed placed within 100 feet of any residence or occupied building, feed placed in such a manner to reasonably exclude access by deer, and feed and minerals present solely as a result of normal agricultural or forest management, or crop and wildlife food production practices.
The 12 new counties are: Barry, Benton, Cedar, Dade, Hickory, Ozark, Polk, St. Clair, St. Francois, Ste. Genevieve, Stone, and Taney.

The 12 new counties join these 29 existing counties of the Department’s CWD Management Zone: Adair, Boone, Callaway, Carroll, Chariton, Cole, Cooper, Crawford, Franklin, Gasconade, Jefferson, Knox, Linn, Livingston, Macon, Miller, Moniteau, Morgan, Osage, Putnam, Randolph, Schuyler, Scotland, Shelby, St. Charles, St. Louis, Sullivan, Warren, and Washington.

Missouri DNR states the main reason for banning feeding of deer is to decrease the transmission of disease, which is related to concentrated gatherings.

Travel tissue covers for a quick and easy teacher gift

These are a couple of tissue holders that I made for my girl's teachers as holiday gifts. The outer fabric is Dandelion in Indigo from Tula Pink's Prince Charming collection, and the lining is Canyon Stripe in Piney Woods from Denyse Schmidt's Hope Valley collection. Both collections are out of print I think, but there's still a bit of them around here and there.

If you are looking for out of print/past collections of quilting cottons, I've found that Hawthorne Threads is a good source -- that's not a scientific assessment, just that I've clicked over there a few times and thought: oh wow, they still have some of that? and in three colorways! (And no, Hawthorne Threads is not paying me to say this. I wish! I am, um, a good customer.)

To make the tissue covers, I used this tutorial. I have to admit I found the first part of it a bit confusing, and totally bollocksed up my first attempt. I am a very, VERY word-oriented person, so I don't always do well with tutorials with descriptions like "sew it together like this:" followed by a photo. (When sewing from Japanese pattern books, which are supposedly so great because the instructions are diagrams requiring no translation, I actually write out step by step instructions in words. True story!)

So if you are similarly text-ophilic, I'll offer that you want to begin by sewing the outer fabric to the lining fabric, right sides together, aligning the short (5.5") edges of the pieces and sewing a 1/4" seam along each edge. (You'll be left with a bleb of extra lining fabric in the middle, which is later pressed flat to form the decorative edging at the mouth of the cover.)

From there it's smooth sailing. The cover has a very clever, tidy construction, and once you know how it's done, you really can make one in 10 minutes flat.

That the stripes of the lining fabric ended up oriented across the opening of my tissue covers (a much more attractive result than if they were oriented along the opening, so that you would just see one or two stripes and they would probably, knowing me, be crooked) was a complete accident. But if you want to do it on purpose, make sure you cut your lining piece so that the stripes are oriented parallel to the long (7.5") side of the rectangle.

I made two tissue covers, one for my girl's main teacher and the other for her math teacher. I wanted to give them something handmade, but small and unobtrusive. These seemed to fit the bill, plus they're the perfect size to tuck a gift card into. And I thought, hey, what elementary school teacher couldn't use an attractive and tidy container from which to dispense facial tissues?

Of course, those were the thoughts I had on December 13, way back in an earlier era when the idea that Kleenex could somehow be an appropriate metaphor for the care teachers show our kids, and that a few scraps of fabric could be an adequate thank-you, seemed slightly less ridiculous than it does now.

But the best thing for my girl is for me to pretend, on some level, at least around her, that we still do live in that era. So off I send her with a couple of tiny packages tied up in thin silver ribbon, because what else can you do?

I put my girl on the bus this morning for her first day back at school and it felt exactly like this.

Ontario’s slow growth economy: better news than you might think

Ontario’s Minister of Finance recently released a report that looked into the future, and saw a slow growth scenario for our economy over the next 20 years.

Charles Sousa predicts that Ontario’s economy will grow at just above 2 per cent a year, on average, for the next 20 years. To put just how slow that is in context: that’s below the average for the previous 25 years – including the two huge recessions that took place during that period.

It’s also important to note that we’re growing at roughly the same pace as Canada, nation-wide (Ontario averages 2.1%, Canada, 2.2%). That’s just a hair slower than the US (which is projected to grow at 2.4% over the next 20 years), and a full percentage point below the global rate (3.1%).

Put simply, the global economy is slowing down.

The primary reason: an aging population. More people are getting older, and spending less. Less spending means slower growth. And while slow growth isn’t all bad, it does pose some real problems.

A slower economy means fewer jobs created. But we need faster, not slower job growth in Ontario to soak up Ontario’s 560,000 unemployed, 43% of whom are under 30.

A long-term slow growth economy could also mean less revenue for Ontario over next 20 years, just as spending on aging people and an aging infrastructure is expected to climb.

All this has the makings of heightened political tension, because there are really only three paths to choose from:

  1. don’t balance budgets (which means we borrow more);
  2. increase our revenues (collecting what we’re owed, or upping taxes and fees);
  3. offer fewer supports for people

None of these are very attractive solutions. So what could possibly be good about this situation? The optimist in me sees silver linings on these grey clouds.

An aging labour force will eventually lead to more opportunities for younger people, which could in turn become a wellspring for innovation. And as that population moves out of the workforce, wages will likely rise for younger workers.

Governments simply can’t pursue a low wage strategy indefinitely, as the market tightens. Ontario’s firms need people with more purchasing power — unless smaller firms are OK with losing market share to bigger, more aggressive price-chopping businesses.

Slow growth also increases pressure for innovation. Today’s era has many similarities to the period of the 1870s to 1890s — which was the first to be dubbed “The Great Depression”.  It was  also a time of innovation breakthroughs: cars, trains, the expansion of rail and trams; phones, telegraphs and radios.

Today, we’re again on the verge of all sorts of breakthroughs. Think about artificial intelligence, biomedical discoveries, new approaches to energy generation and use.

Permit me a small digression:

I recently bought a set of Empire Club of Canada speeches, going back to 1940s. They are the  TED talks of yesteryear.  And while their fragile bindings are chock full of speeches from the 1950s about private sector initiatives and investment, these businessmen and statesmen (and they are universally men)   also speak with one voice about the power of, and need for, massive  public investments in infrastructure, public transit, aerospace, and  basic science.  Their spirit stands in stark contrast with today’s “we can’t afford it” tonality.  They are amazing vignettes of enterprise and entrepreneurialism from both public and private sectors,  with a “Field of Dreams” mentality animating it all: if we build it, they will come….and we will all be the better for it.

The key lesson here? Governments shape the future and our economic growth by what they do and by what they don’t do, not just by getting out of the way of business. Today, the very least we need to do is increase, not shrink, government’s contribution to the economy  by fixing and extending the infrastructure built in the 1950s and 1960s….or business won’t invest here.

So perhaps slow growth is a gift. It has ushered in historically unprecedented  low interest rates. That creates a fantastic opportunity, and the perfect conditions to tackle our infrastructure deficit, human and physical.  It’s a false economy to say we’re restraining government spending now. We  should be hiring people before the wage push of aging labour markets begins in earnest,  and when the price of borrowing money is as close to nothing as it’s ever been.  Failing to act now only raises the sticker price of taking action when it is inevitably taken down the road.

Could slow growth also be a gift to those concerned about meeting climate change targets? Older people buy less stuff.  If people buy less stuff, we make less stuff. Slow growth could provide  the planet with a bit of breathing room by slowing down the production of green-house gas emissions and other forms of toxic pollution. That’s another way to inch towards  making progress on reaching necessary Kyoto Targets, which are — literally — life-saving.

Slow growth is also the reason the private sector has lost its investment mojo, and is sitting on rising piles of cash, or as it is affectionately called by central bankers, “dead money”.

Maybe the government could become more of a major investor for a while, guiding the 21st century infrastructure towards reduced energy use, and new energy sources.

Business can’t succeed on a planet that fails.

In the past, an entrepreneurial state asked: what kind of future do we want, and how do we get there? Slow growth could nudge us towards those questions again.

Maybe, just maybe, slow growth could help us shape our future instead of accidentally drifting into it.

This post is an adaptation of Armine’s business column  from April 3, 2014.  Armine can be heard on CBC’s Metro Morning on Tuesdays and Thursdays.  You can follow her on Twitter @ArmineYalnizyan.

  1. I agree, we need to acknowledge that exponential growth cannot go on forever in a finite world. De-growth is part of the solution.

    Décrosissance, to give its European popularity its due — is about creating a simpler society of more rewarding human relations by an equitable reduction of materialism. With increasing long term unemployment, even for new university graduates, an alternative is being sought to the socially and ecologically unhealthy endless pursuit of growth and consumption.

    Degrowth advocates seek a reduction of the collective capacity to acquire and use physical resources, aiming for a more equitable, democratic society and for sustainability, both environmental and economic.

    Advocates of “decroissance” argue against growth in favour of “having less to live better.”

Jealousy is oft heard, but always done

Jealousy. My biggest sin.

I'm a jealous person. Probably more jealous than God himself, but that's for another edition of my blog.

When I like somebody (a girl probably), I want her to be with me all the time. When she starts getting smoochy moochy with other guys, it sends me in a swirl of emotions, half-anger and half-disappointment. She says it's nothing, that we're 'just friends'...but nowadays I just don't trust girls who say that.

Sorry, blame my past flames for arousing these suspicions in me. I've been cheated on before. I've had it with girls who tell me they're 'just friends' or 'it's nothing, really'. If it's really nothing then why bother seeing him, texting him, ribbing him, smiling at him in the first place? I'm here naman, I've got all the time in the world!

Oh, wait. Selfishness is the brother of jealousy...and they're both in me now. I've become too pessimistic about this, too grounded in the fact that nobody's perfect, that nobody can ever be loyal to one person only. I've had it with girls leaving me 'just because'. Like I've always said...I'm easy. If you like me, you like me...if you don't, then I don't have any use for you.

Bihira lang ako mainlove. Most women I know take that for granted. They swoon for men who love them for looks and leave them at the drop of the hat, then cry their eyes out wondering why someone so perfect would leave them so easily.

Someone once told me to have faith...unfortunately I believe that God is the only being anyone can ever be faithful to. Men and women cannot be 'just' friends. That's why I have so very few female friends. Men and women are meant to be consummate feelings and emotions...but the men always get the short end of the stick. To quote one of my favorite and women can't be friends because the sex always gets in the way.

But in the end, it's a trait I will always hate. Jealousy has no place in my life. I don't want to be jealous anymore. Jealousy is for weak people who can't handle other people's emotions. I get jealous easily and for the smallest things...

But the jealousy remains.

Training with the pros: MBB manager’s NBA pre-draft experience

Training with the pros: MBB manager’s NBA pre-draft experience

Matt Matoh spent his summer living any basketball fan’s dream.

The Belmont senior and men’s basketball team manager was given the opportunity to work up close and personal with former college players in preparation for the the 2014 NBA Draft.

“On a personal level it was interesting.  It was really cool to get to know those guys more than what you see on TV from them,” he said.

Matoh assisted former Bruin basketball star Drew Hanlen during the pre-draft camp with Pure Sweat, the company founded by Hanlen. The program focused on skill development, film and preparing college players for the NBA.

“He was in charge of creating video edits for my NBA and NBA pre-draft players, and he also assisted with my on-court workouts,” said Hanlen.

While Pure Sweat is based in St. Louis, the pre-draft camp took place in Santa Barbara, Calif.  Matoh arrived in May, a month after training began, and quickly got to know the players he admired so much.

During the summer, Pure Sweat trained players such as former Kansas standout Andrew Wiggins and UCLA star Zach LaVine in preparation for the lottery.Wiggins was selected the No. 1 overall draft pick by the Cleveland Cavaliers in the 2014 NBA Draft. LaVine was not far behind at No. 13, selected by the Minnesota Timberwolves.

After a trade over the summer between the Cavaliers and Timberwolves, both players will be playing for Minnesota in the upcoming NBA season.

The pre-draft program gave Matoh more experience working with players to improve their game and another opportunity to enhance his resume.

“To have a chance to learn from Drew in such close quarters is something that can only help. His reputation has grown so much in the basketball community,” he said.

This pre-draft camp helped him to enhance his knowledge of skill development, something that he hopes to carry with him throughout his career.

While he enjoyed his training experience, Matoh said he wants to eventually become a coach at the collegiate level and hopes to obtain a graduate assistant position with a program after he graduates Belmont in May.

“I would love to coach here eventually, but probably the place I’m going to look at next is the University of St. Louis,” said Matoh.

The basketball manager still hasn’t ruled out the possibility of a career as a trainer and hopes he can help Hanlen again next summer.

“If coaching didn’t work out for some reason, training is something I could definitely fall back on because of my experience with Drew, but I want to give coaching a try first,” he said.

“If I had my choice, I would love to go out there again.”

Los Angeles debut : 2012 Volvo C70 Inscription

1 评论

Volvo has releases the C70 Inscription,which will debut at the Los Angeles Auto Show. The C70 Inscription is to be limited to just 2,000 cars worldwide, and you can grab one of those coming to the UK from £33,855 for the D3 SE Inscription.

The Volvo C70 Inscription will be available in three colors, Black Stone, Black Sapphire and Ice White, along with new 18 inch alloy wheels, high-gloss paint on the grille and LED Daytime Running Lights.

Power comes from a turbocharged 2.5-liter five-cylinder engine which has been outfitted with a Polestar ECU. Thanks to this change, the engine develops 250 hp (186 kW / 253 PS) and 273 lb-ft (370 Nm) of torque - an increase of 23 hp (17 kW / 23 PS) and 37 lb-ft (50 Nm).

Bespoke interior features like Sovereign Hide leather, aluminum pieces and a dash also wrapped in leather are included.Only 2,000 units of the 2012 Volvo C70 Inscription will be produced each year until the roadster ends production in 2013.

Press Release

Volvo C70 Inscription debuts at the 2011 Los Angeles Auto Show

C70 Inscription is the ultimate expression of Volvo's hardtop convertible
Increased horsepower and torque
Unique interior and exterior details
Limited production
On sale early next year

Los Angeles, Calif. (Nov. 8, 2011) - In Los Angeles it's all about being seen in the right car. Cruising Sunset Boulevard or Rodeo Drive in anything less than a gorgeous convertible is considered by locals as very un-cool.

With this in mind, Volvo Car Corporation is using the 2011 Los Angeles Auto Show as the backdrop for introducing the 2012 C70 Inscription. Perhaps the ultimate expression of Volvo's iconic hardtop convertible, the Inscription package will be offered in limited quantities and is set to arrive in Volvo retailers early next year. Pricing for the Inscription package has not yet been announced The base MSRP for the 2012 C70 hardtop convertible is $39,950*.

"The C70 has always been a stunningly designed Volvo," said John Maloney, Vice President of Marketing, Volvo Cars of North America. "The C70 Inscription takes that beautiful design to the next level." Setting the C70 Inscription apart from the standard C70 is increased horsepower and torque and a number of unique exterior and interior features.

Unique to the U.S. market, the C70 Inscription gets its mettle through performance tuning to the Engine Control Module (ECM). Provided by Polestar, a Swedish racing and performance products company partnered with Volvo Cars, the tuning optimizes engine output in a variety of ways. More air and fuel are funneled into the combustion chambers and spark timing is advanced, creating notable performance gains. The turbocharged inline 5-cylinder engine generates 250 horsepower at 5,500 rpm and 273 lb.-ft. of torque at 3,000 rpm. Seamless power is routed to the front wheels through a 5-speed Geartronic automatic transmission.

Outside, the C70 Inscription includes a number of head-turning design features. A unique gloss-black grille slots beautifully between active dual Xenon headlights and LED Daytime Running Lights. Chrome surrounds the headlights and grille, giving the car a truly distinctive face. Stunning 18-inch black "Midir" wheels incorporate polished rims and spokes. A rear spoiler completes the exterior enhancements. The C70 Inscription is available in just two colors: Ice White and Black Sapphire Metallic.

Beautiful Scandinavian design has been a hallmark of the C70's interior since it was launched in 2006. The C70 Inscription follows this tradition while adding a host of luxurious appointments. Driver and passengers will immediately notice the gorgeous Sovereign Hide upholstery. Volvo's legendary seats are now more comfortable than ever. The dashboard is covered in leather and features contrasting stitching. Unique Inscription floor mats, handbrake lever and front headrests further distinguish the C70 Inscription from the C70.

Befitting a car of this stature, the C70 Inscription is a limited-production vehicle. Production volume globally is just 2,000 units annually. The U.S. will see just 500 examples of this exemplary automobile. The C70 Inscription package goes on sale in the U.S. during the first quarter of 2012.

who i am

Gator Studio 920x520

I was born in Reutte, Tyrol, Austria, which is a spectacular place to be. That might be the reason, why I live here, today. Between now and then, I came around quite a bit, only to end up in the same old spot I started from. All’s well that ends well, I guess – even though I am far from ending at this point.

I was taken to the US at age six, my mother’s side of the family lives there. Loved it, still do. I went back and forth and South and North, wanted to learn to play the guitar in between, had to learn the piano instead. Hated it. Taught myself to play the guitar on my Dad’s acoustic. HE hated it. So he bought me one, worst piece of wood ever made !

I then got me an Ibanez electric axe with my first self owned money and practiced like crazy.
Those were the 80’s, man, that was the mission. With Van Halen and all.

Got pretty decent at it, but found myself stranded in Austria (which is NOT a good place for a musician unless you live in the 18th century and are a fricking genius), so I packed my bags and went back to the US to study at the Berklee College of Music in Boston.

Played in various bands with all kinds of musicians, some of them you might probably have heard of. Came back to Austria, started to write a Rock-Opera with my buddy Andi. Now for an opera, you´re in need of a classical piano player. We did not know one. At least nobody cool.
Long story short, I started playing again and really, really began enjoying it. And I still am.

Worked several years for a company as a composer, learned a crapload about music business. I also learned the technical side of movies like color grading, encoding, motion design, editing and all things necessary to make a movie, that was a good thing. And then I learned about people…

Things got ugly for a while and my life took a turn right down into the dumpster, I was so depressed, I could not even LISTEN to music for more than two years.

It took me a while before I did get back into the sunlight, but here I am, staying. Bought myselves a camera, learned how to fly drones and figured out gimbals. Founded the „BernieGator mediafactory“, the term references to „manufactory“ –  a place where things are manufactured from the very start until finish, no external sources involved. All from one hand.

I love making movies. I love to get up before sunrise to catch the best light, I love to compose music in my head while I am filming, I love the fact that I can pause in the middle of an edit because I need a quiet piano part with a violin to set in  – and being able to compose and master that part right away.

I love playing guitar or the piano, I love to conduct a whole orchestra in my studio and I love when everything comes together in the end.

The Lot Six - "Autobrats"

The Lot Six is the best rock band that you've never heard of. They're from Boston and were my favorite band for a long time. Check out youtube videos of their live performances. You can see me in the one that is of their last show - played at the Middle East Downstairs in Cambridge. I'm the handsome one front row center.
I didn't put that video on here, though... the sound quality of this is much better. Enjoy!

Layers on Layers, Stacks on Stacks

I have a quick post for you all today. I just wanted to share a few of my recent, most worn jewelry/accessories. This Kate Spade ‘Tell All’ Necklace is so popular and I get stopped every time I wear it. People love it! What I really love about this necklace is the fact that you can turn it around. Think about doing this with your jewelry – It gives you a new look without having to go buy a new piece! I know I’ve talked about layering in recent posts, but I can’t stop doing it. And OF COURSE, I have on my tassel Y-Chain Banana Republic necklace. Some simple drop earring can dress up a plain striped tee. Stacking is another great way to dress up an outfit. Here I’ve layered my everyday watch, a brown leather and gold bracelet, and a gold nail bracelet. Stacking is such a great way to show personality – have fun with it! And last but not least, I cannot forget about my favorite sunglasses. These are the Marc by Marc Jacobs 59mm Rimless Aviator Sunglasses. I’ve had these for a little over a year now and they have held up so well. I have a large face, so it’s always hard finding a shape of sunglasses that works for me. I always tend to lean toward aviators, so once I found these, I FELL IN LOVE. They don’t have metal on the bottom of the frames, which means no sunglasses touching my cheeks when I smile – a BIG plus.

Outfit Details:

Striped Tee: Gap

Short necklace: Kate Spade

Y-Chain necklace: Banana Republic

Earrings: Francesca’s Boutique

Watch: Michael Kors

Fox Leather bracelet: Gifted, but you can find them on Etsy

Nail bracelet: J. Crew

Simplicity Is All You Need

Can you believe how fast this summer has gone by? I move out of the house in exactly two weeks and I can’t even grasp it.

If you know me at all, you know I am all about simplicity. Looking clean and polished is my thing and there’s nothing I love more than a great, simple swimsuit that makes you feel comfortable and confident. We all have insecurities, so in my opinion it’s best to throw on a bikini with a great silhouette. I always tend to gravitate towards black in everything I wear because it’s like my safety net. Black is slimming, sleek, and you always look put together in it. Wearing a black bikini makes me feel great because it doesn’t draw too much attention and I personally love the contrast with my blonde hair. There are a few things you can do to play up a plain bikini; I personally love Y-chain necklaces or body chains. Please DO NOT wear jewelry in any kind of water, it’ll tarnish!

To layer over your swimsuit, I also suggest something basic. I threw on this really light fabric romper. It’s the best swimsuit cover up! Another thing – I strongly urge you to not spend a lot of money on swimsuit cover ups. They get beaten up! I’ll take mine on the boat, lay in the sand, or even get wet in them. If you’re going to splurge, do it on the swimsuit! Not on the thing you’ll be covering it with!

Outfit details:

Bikini top: Gap

Bikini bottoms (not shown): Victoria’s Secret

Romper: Old Navy (last season)

Y-Chain Necklace: Banana Republic (mentioned in my last post)

Bracelet: Karma

Earrings: Karma

Sandals (not shown): Tory Burch

Makeup details:

Blush: MAC Casual Color in Relaxation

Eyes: MAC Amber Times 9 Eyeshadow, MAC Fluidline in Lowlights, Neutrogena Healthy Volume Mascara

Lips: MAC Lipglass in Purrr

My All Time Favorite Summer Outfit

Greetings everyone! I would just like to apologize for my absence. I had my college orientation, which was amazing! I am so excited to start this new chapter and I couldn’t be happier with the school I picked. After orientation, I was at a week long summer camp for people affected with bleeding disorders. My family is affected with Hemophilia, which I will get into in another post. Following camp, I had my wisdom teeth removed and with that came many complications that lead to a longer recovery. Anyways, I am so happy to be back and start posting again!

For my first post back, I wanted to share my favorite, go-to summer outfit. I am all about comfort. I love to throw on a soft shirt and some denim shorts for any daytime occasion. I am OBSESSED with this linen shirt because even though it’s blue and white, it can pretty much go with anything. Here I’ve paired it with my favorite boyfriend denim shorts. It’s so hard for me to find a good pair of denim shorts because of my build. Being 4’11” has always made it hard to shop. As for shoes, I basically live in my Rainbows. They are the best sandals I have ever had and I throw them on with anything. If you haven’t ever had them, at least try them on because they will change your life! I have been super in to mixing metals and layering necklaces. I love these two pieces. One is a longer Y-chain that I keep tucked in my shirt so it look like a body chain. Then I am also wearing a shorter Y-chain that has silver and gold detailing. Along with the mixing metals theme, I stacked two gold rings with one silver ring in between and stacked silver and gold bracelets. Can you tell it’s one of my favorite trends?!

Sorry for the long post, but I wanted to get everything out there as I have been MIA for awhile!

Outfit Details:

Shirt: Gap

Shorts: Old Navy

Sandals: Rainbow

Watch: Michael Kors

Gold Bangle: J. Crew

Silver Bangle: Kate Spade

Gold Rings: Henri Bendel

Silver Ring: Tiffany & C0.

Father’s Day Evening at the Pool

Happy Father’s Day to all of the dads out there. I would personally like to thank my own dad for always encouraging me. He’s been by my side through all of the ups and downs. He also helped me create this website because he’s all tech-savvy.  So thank you Dad!

Alright, so for the outfit – I wanted to go with something casual and fun. If you know me, you know I love a good statement pant. I LOVE these black and white sunflower jogger-like pants from Gap. They are paper thin so the heat doesn’t get to you, especially when we’ve recently had a record of high heat in the past couple days where I live. However, these pants don’t have a ton of shape so I wanted a very structured top. I went with this papery, white peplum top, also by Gap. (I work for Gap, that’s why basically all of my clothes are from there.) I accessorized with some basic diamond studs, a statement necklace, my everyday watch, all black sunglasses, and some black sandals. This outfit was so light and perfect for dinner by the pool with the family.

I hope you all enjoyed this post and I hope you all had a wonderful Father’s Day and spent it with the ones you love!

It is so flattering on EVERYONE and I guarantee that if you try it, you’ll fall in love. It gives a feminine glow to whoever wears it. Another reason I love this color is because it’s so versatile. You can pair it with white like I have done in the pictures below, with denim, with another nude, or even black. This is one of my all time favorite tops that I own because I have been able to create so many different outfits, I’ve never had to repeat!

I hope you all enjoyed my first post and please leave comments on anything you would like to see me do in the future. I can’t wait to share everything with you!
