We kiss one another to show gratitude, happiness, excitement, love, and affection. A kiss inspires. And this inspiration begets energy. This energy, in turn, begets creativity. BIZU was born out of this inspiration.
From this inspiration came the unique selection of cakes and pastries that were truly made to inspire. It all began with a dream to have an authentic Parisian Patisserie where the finest French pastries and European breads can be savored right in the Philippines. With much training and patience, our Filipino chefs have learned the magical art of the French Patisserie. Indeed, ensuring the most flavorful and artful products are brought to your homes is a labor of love.
From a kiosk/café at the third floor of Glorietta 4 that started operations in 2001, BIZU now has three more outlets in Greenbelt 2, Alabang Towncenter, and at The Promenade inside Greenhills Shopping Center.
The menu includes all day breakfast, lunch, afternoon tea, and dinner items.
Customers are not to leave without the chewy pastel-colored Macarons de Paris that Bizu Patisserie is known for.
Picatostes, Calamansi Curd and Vanilla Ice Cream (Rating = 3.91) – Top #2 in Dessert Category!
I love the rustic clean Italian ambiance by K. by Cunanan with no need to put a signage.
Thank you to the mommy bloggers for coming!
Paulene Ganache (Rating = 3.88) – Top #3 in Dessert Category!
Mesclun (mes-klən) is old Occitane for "mixture" and in popular culture, refers to mixed greens. And what is gastronomy if not mixing? A creative blend of colors, flavors, and textures. A harmonious marriage of temperatures, techniques and even cuisines. Most of all, food is an exquisite point of convergence, regardless of interests or backgrounds. And that is what Mesclun celebrates.
What Mesclun Brings to Your Table.
We are passionate in creating new dishes. We are personal in designing unique experiences. We are professional in executing our events.
At the helm of our group is Chef Katrina Arce Kuhn-Alcantara, who espouses global culinary standards and draws from a rich array of flavors and techniques. Her family has been behind the renowned Arce Dairy since the conception of its rich ice cream style in 1935. She received formal training in France from the premier culinary arts school Le Cordon Bleu (Paris) and gained further professional experience in several restaurants in the country. Since her return to the Philippines, Chef Katrina has thrived as a caterer and restaurateur. Apart from Mesclun, she applies her wide array of expertise to other food ventures in Manila, namely, Chuck's Deli — an American-style super-sandwich and burger shop boasting of homemade breads and cold cuts; and Paulene Chocolat Suisses — a premium line of made-to-order chocolate confections.

Water Management in KSA
Photo1: Sabya valley, KSA. (Source: Mohammad Mohsin, Flickr)
Institutional Structure Water Laws and Regulations Organizational Structure References
Institutional structure and organizational framework
According to the National Water Strategy,[1] the focus on policy making in KSA is limited. Governance is also below the required level, and there is a lack of a comprehensive set of policies and limited integration between water and agriculture policies.
Integrated water management in KSA is not carried out efficiently at the national and local levels, nor is there a comprehensive plan for the integrated management of resources. Moreover, there is a limited vision regarding the economics and resources of the sector. For instance, there are no records on groundwater wells or the quantities of groundwater abstraction.[2]
Water laws and regulations
The major water-related laws in KSA are summarized in Table 1. The current legislative framework is still subject to the water regime issued in 1980 and is considered to be inadequate. The current legal and legislative system suffers from several problems, namely:
fragmentation and a lack of cohesion, as it was formulated in stages to respond to urgent needs
absence of economic legislation, especially in terms of service level in the supply chain
absence of legislation and licenses to implement integrated water resource management practices
absence of environmental protection legislation, monitoring and enforcement provisions and practices
limited provisions for resolving water sector disputes.
The National Water Strategy suggests that the legal and legislative framework should provide the appropriate tools to implement the water sector policy adopted by KSA. The Electricity and Cogeneration Regulatory Authority regulates water and sanitation services, while the Ministry of Environment, Water and Agriculture regulates water resources.[3]
Table 1: Major water laws in KSA.[4]
Name of law Issue tool and date Scope and aims
Law of Saline Water Conversion Corporation Royal Decree, 24/01/1974 - Establishment of the corporation and the location of its headquarters. - Definition of the corporation's purpose, which is 'saline water conversion in the Kingdom's regions and cities, where the natural resources are insufficient to meet the needs'. - Definition of the corporation's responsibilities and authorities. - Administrative and financial affairs.
Organizational Arrangement of Water Plants/Factories Cabinet Decision, 14/03/2011 - Definition of the role of government agencies, their competencies, responsibilities and the tasks entrusted to them in everything related to water plants. This organizational arrangement does not include Zamzam water from a well in Mecca, which is considered holy. - The law defines the tasks of the Ministry of Water and Electricity (now the Ministry of Environment, Water and Agriculture), the Ministry of Municipal and Rural Affairs, the Ministry of Trade and Industry and the General Authority for Food and Drug Administration.
Water Law Cabinet Decision, 02/07/2020 - The objectives of the law are to: • preserve, develop and protect water resources and ensure their sustainability and management • regulate water resources' affairs, the rights related to them and their use • ensure safe, clean, reliable, high-quality and competitively priced water supplies achieve equity among consumers • enhance participation of the private sector in the activities subject to the regime and ensure effective governance. - The law contains 77 articles on topics such as tasks and responsibilities, waste resources and ownership, water uses, protection of water resources and water tariffs.
Regulating the Water and Electricity Regulatory Authority Cabinet Decision, 29/12/2020 - Approval of regulating the organization of the Water and Electricity Authority's responsibilities and mandates.
Regulating the National Centre for Water Efficiency and Rationalization Cabinet Decision, 02/02/2021 - Approval of regulating the National Centre for Water Efficiency and Rationalization's responsibilities and mandates.
Ministry of Environment, Water and Agriculture
In 2016, Royal Decree No. A/133 was issued to abolish the Ministry of Water and Electricity and change the name of the Ministry of Agriculture to the Ministry of Environment, Water and Agriculture (MEWA). Its water-related duties include supervising and developing environmental, water and agricultural affairs, providing irrigation water suitable for agriculture through wells and dams, designing, implementing, operating and maintaining irrigation and drainage projects and distributing irrigation water to promote the efficient use of these resources.[5]
MEWA is responsible for producing water from groundwater wells, except in areas managed by the National Water Company (NWC). It also manages water distribution in all regions, except for those managed by the NWC and a few other areas. MEWA also manages billing and customer services as well as the collection and treatment of sewage in all regions, except for those managed by the NWC.[6]
Electricity and Cogeneration Regulatory Authority (ECRA)
ECRA was established under the Council of Ministers' Resolution No. 236 issued in 2001, to regulate the electricity and water desalination sector as well as district cooling. Among its duties related to the water desalination sector are the production, trade and transportation of desalinated water; monitoring licensees' compliance with their license requirements and conditions; development of unified regulatory accounting and reporting procedures for desalination providers; coordination of the infrastructure of the sector; assessing tariffs charged for the services and proposing new tariffs (as needed); protecting the interests of stakeholders in the sector; ensuring the adequacy of new regulations for expanding the infrastructure; and encouraging private sector participation and investments.[7]
National Water Company (NWC)
A joint stock company fully owned by the Saudi government (namely the Public Investment Fund), the NWC was established to provide water and wastewater treatment services according to the latest international standards.[8] The NWC specializes in providing the highest quality drinking water, ensuring the presence of water and wastewater connections in all households, preserving natural water resources and the environment, using treated sewage effluent with maximum efficiency and training qualified Saudi employees.
Saudi Water Partnership Company
The Saudi Water Partnership Company was established in 2003.[9] [10] It is fully owned by the Ministry of Finance and mandated to ensure adequate water production capacity and drive local content development and private sector participation. The company's primary purpose is to purchase water and electricity from private sector projects (developers) in Saudi Arabia and sell water to the Saline Water Conversion Corporation. It is also responsible for the tenders for desalination plants, water purification plants, WWTPs, water storage tanks and water transmission networks.
Saline Water Conversion Corporation (SWCC)
The SWCC is an independent government corporation responsible for desalinating seawater, producing electric power and supplying various regions with desalinated water.[11] The corporation was established by royal decree in 1974. The desalination of water alongside the production of electricity are the most important objectives of the development plans envisaged by the corporation. One of the main strategic goals for the implementation of these plans is to build several desalination plants, along with support facilities in regions suffering from shortages of fresh water, based on the outcomes of technical feasibility studies.
General Authority of Meteorology and Environmental Protection
One of the most important tasks of this authority is monitoring meteorological phenomena and weather forecasting for the safety of life and the protection of properties. Rationalizing and optimizing natural resource use (including water) in the Kingdom is performed by the associated National Centre for Meteorology.[12] Meanwhile, the National Centre for Environmental Compliance is responsible for protecting present and future generations from environmental pollution damage through environmental management and pollution monitoring and assessment, while achieving balanced development.[13]

Home TV Mayans M.C. Season 2 Episode 4 Recap: "Lahun Chan"
Mayans M.C. Season 2 Episode 4 Recap: "Lahun Chan"
JD Pardo as EZ Reyes in 'Mayans M.C.' season 2 episode 4 (Photo by Prashant Gupta/FX)
FX's Mayans M.C. season two episode three ended with EZ and Angel surprising Happy when he arrived home from Medina's funeral. The action in episode four picks up with EZ (JD Pardo) and Angel (Clayton Cardenas) asking Happy if he knows who they are. Happy justifiably assumes someone's going to die before this encounter ends and doesn't care about their identities.
With Happy (David Labrava) tied up, EZ and Angel rifle through his drawers looking for anything on their mother. They're both being careful and wearing gloves, and neither find anything during their search. The next step is to question Happy about what happened nine years ago. EZ lays out the facts. Someone murdered their mother by shooting her in the neck at the family's butcher shop. He also reveals that he saw the car as it drove away and remembers exactly what it looked like.
EZ followed the vehicle in his truck and eventually saw the driver – Happy – at a construction zone. "I remember every detail of it," snarls EZ. Happy doesn't say anything as EZ tells him he knows he killed their mother.
EZ's done such thorough research that he knows Happy was a gun-for-hire prior to joining SAMCRO. Happy remains silent, even as Angel puts out a lit cigarette on his bare shoulder. All EZ and Angel want is a name from Happy, but he's not forthcoming.
EZ then surprises his brother by asking if it was Galindo and the cartel who ordered the hit.
With that question now dangling in the wind, EZ's forced to walk Angel through everything he discovered about their father's past. He explains he found a lockbox that contained their father's personal papers. Those papers included their father and mother's real names and the information that Felipe was a Federale. He also explains in the box were photos of their dad with Miguel Galindo's father, Jose. That's why he asked Happy about the cartel's involvement.
Angel doesn't take EZ withholding these details until now well, and he attacks his brother. Happy, still tied up, smiles as he watches the brothers beat the crap out of each other.
Meanwhile, the Mayans are heading home when they run into EZ and Angel's "friends," the Swole Boys. There's 20 of the wannabes lined up as the club stops for gas and snacks. Bishop and the guys try and figure out what's up with this club and why they're in a stare down. They give Packer, president of the San Bernardino chapter of Sons of Anarchy, a call but he's out. Coco (Richard Cabral) jokes that maybe they just want to escort them to the border.
The Mayans don't have the time or energy for this encounter. They consider taking an access road, but Bishop decides they should stick to the highway and stay in front of the situation. The six bikes and the van get back on the road and the Swole Boys immediately follow.
The Swole Boys make their move, taking out Riz (Antonio Jaramillo) and his bike first. He goes down hard which means game on. Three Swole Boys go down, courtesy of the van.
The Mayans then pull over and scare off the remainder of the Swole Boys by firing a few rounds in their direction.
It's only after the Swole Boys sped away that the Mayans remember Riz is back the direction the Swole Boys are heading without any backup. They hurry back and Riz is still sprawled out, unconscious. He comes to and doesn't seem too badly injured.
Packer (Robert Patrick) and some SAMDINO members arrive on the scene to help. Packer reveals the Swole Boys are out of a bunch of muscleheads out of a gym. Packer apologizes this went down in San Bernardino and happily agrees to help Bishop settle the score.
"Let's go burn down a f**king gym!" says Packer, raring for a fight.
Angel and EZ finally finish beating each other bloody. EZ admits he didn't think it was his place to divulge their dad's secrets. Happy's still tied up but the brothers don't care as it's time for another heart-to-heart. Angel believes he was a constant disappointment to their mom and dad and that EZ was their favorite. EZ apologizes, even though it's not his fault, and Angel confesses there were times he hated the sight of him. He calls himself an idiot, a mistake, and EZ tries to get his brother to understand no one thought that.
Happy picks this moment to pipe up and say, "Poor little Angel. Nobody loved him."
That prompts the brothers to finally get up off the kitchen floor. They take a good look at Happy's tattoos and Angel wonders which of the smiley faces is the one marking their mother's murder. EZ's not sure and hands Angel a knife, telling him it's his pick.
Angel uses the knife and slices a chunk of flesh with one of the tattoos out of Happy's abdomen.
A while later, Happy's still not divulging any info and the brothers are starting to be concerned someone will come looking for Happy. (Happy's phone's been ringing all day.) Neither EZ nor Angel expected Happy to hold out so long; their plan, if you can call it that, is definitely not working.
Angel suggests they kill him and make it look like a break-in. EZ's frustrated and doesn't want to take Happy out until they know why their mother was targeted. Angel decides they should attempt to get Happy to talk one more time and if he doesn't break, then they'll shoot him.
EZ tells Happy he doesn't want to kill him, but they will if Happy doesn't say who ordered the hit. Happy's dog's been barking this whole time but his barking grows more frantic as Angel rams his gun barrel into the open wound on Happy's abdomen.
Angel can't take the barking anymore and heads over to shoot the dog. That breaks Happy. He screams, "No!" before Angel can fire. Angel and EZ realize they finally have bargaining power. Angel threatens to torture the dog slowly if Happy doesn't talk. (As a dog lover I'm finding this scene extremely difficult to watch.)
After hours of remaining silent, Happy finally agrees to talk in order to save his dog. (I'm having mixed emotions about this. On the one hand, Happy obviously loves his dog above all else. So, yay! On the other hand, he's a ruthless murderer.)
Angel earns back a little of the respect he lost for threatening a dog's life by providing the hungry animal with food and fresh water.
Upon Happy's instructions, EZ retrieves a folder that contains information on their mother. It includes her personal information and movements. Happy tells them to look at the next page which it turns out is all about Felipe's locations throughout a typical day.
"I f**ked up. I was supposed to kill both of them," says Happy.
Happy then explains the job came in through Packer. He suggests they talk to Packer because will have kept records. Still, even if Packer has paperwork it won't include the name of the person who ordered the hits.
EZ and Angel demand to how their mother's murder went down. Happy describes the events matter of factly, and reveals their mother wasn't surprised. She knew it was coming. Happy recalls he shot her when he heard cars pulling up. He then stuck around by the border to see if they wanted him to kill Felipe. He assumed the order was coming from one of the cartels.
Happy thought EZ had been sent by a cartel to kill him for not completing the job. He got spooked, gave up being a hired gun, and joined SAMCRO.
"If someone killed my mom, I'd put a bullet between his eyes," admits Happy.
EZ and Angel discuss Happy's fate, with EZ landing on the side of setting Happy free. Angel reminds him SAMCRO knows Happy was a hired gun and the club even set up hits. That was business and by EZ and Angel making it personal, they've broken the rules. EZ confesses he didn't think it through. Angel also takes the blame on himself.
Their conversation's interrupted by someone pounding on Happy's door. The brothers decide whatever happens, they'll go down together.
EZ opens the door to let in Howard, a SAMCRO prospect. Howard enters to find Happy on the couch with his dog and Angel relaxing in a nearby chair. Happy lies and says his injuries came from being hit by a logging truck after he left the funeral. He explains EZ and Angel saved him when they found him sprawled out in the dirt.
Howard buys the story and asks if he can do anything. Happy tells him to pick up the dog poop in his yard.
After Howard heads outside, Happy tells EZ and Angel, "I'll get what I can from Packer. After that, we're clean." EZ and Angel leave without responding, although Angel does give him a death stare on his way out.
Meanwhile, SAMCRO and Mayans arrive at the Swole Boys' gym/headquarters. The steroid-taking wannabes act tough but are playing way out of their league. Bishop confronts the leader and finally understands that EZ and Angel set off this mess. Still, Riz needs retribution for a busted bike and bruised up body. He shoots one of the Boys in the leg, calling it even.
Bishop apologizes to Packer for stirring things up in San Bernardino. Packer admits he should have paid closer attention to this group in his own backyard. Bishop promises back-up whenever Packer needs it.
Bishop sends Coco off to find Angel.
Danny Pino as Miguel Galindo and Sarah Bolger as Emily Thomas in 'Mayans M.C.' season 2 episode 4 (Photo by Prashant Gupta/FX)
Catching up with the Galindos, Emily (Sarah Bolger) is busy working on making her bid more competitive, thanks to the inside information she received from Ileana. She consults with Miguel (Danny Pino), but it's really Emily's baby at this point. He's got to do something for Potter so she agrees to take his mom to her doctor's appointment, promising she'll make sure Dita doesn't stray.
Speaking of Dita (Ada Maris), she calls Felipe and asks that he meet her at 1pm to talk.
Emily drops off the finished bid at the county office and then delivers Dita to her doctor's appointment. Nestor's told to stay and watch the exits so that Dita doesn't wander off again.
The doctor attempts to introduce herself to Dita, but Dita's having none of it. She gives the woman $2,000 in cash and assures her she'll bring her the same every week. The doctor only needs to say Dita is making progress and their sessions are going well. When the doctor refuses to play along, Dita threatens to have her reputation ruined. Dita will tell Miguel the doctor's a quack and her "cushy little tell me your feelings scam" will be over.
Dita sneaks out to the top floor of the building and meets with Felipe (Edward James Olmos). Felipe informs Dita that Marcus paid him a visit, and she confesses her family won't let her out alone because they believe she'll harm herself. She was home alone when the house burned to the ground and because she didn't have anything left, she ignored the evacuation order. She stayed in the wine cellar until a firefighter rescued her.
She now believes she was saved because there are things she needs to do. And then Dita shares a huge secret…Miguel is Felipe's son. No one else knows and she'll never tell another soul. Their talk ends when her phone indicates the session downstairs with the doctor has ended.
Dita tells Emily she believes the doctor can help her. As they're driving away, Emily spots Felipe's truck parked around the corner.
Later that evening, Emily sneaks into Dita's room and goes through her drawers. She discovers the old photo of Felipe.
Miguel and Marcus (Emilio Rivera) pick up Adelita (Carla Baratta) for a meeting with Paloma. Miguel's not sure how much Potter knows about Adelita and Paloma's relationship. He believes Potter's going after Paloma only because she's a more visible target at this point.
Adelita wonders how Miguel's holding up, juggling both worlds. Miguel admits he's actually loving being able to screw the DOJ while also doing something good for those in need in Mexico.
As Miguel and Adelita head toward the meeting, they're unaware the mercs have placed a tracking device on the vehicle and are following their movements. When Miguel's car arrives in the small town for the meeting, the mercs aren't far behind.
Paloma hasn't arrived at the meeting spot as the mercs race up. Adelita makes the quick decision to act as if Miguel and his men tracked her to this town.
Adelita takes a gun and enters a nearby store, firing through the window toward Miguel and his men. The mercs hustle to the scene as the shots ring out. Marcus and another man run toward the store with Miguel's acting as if they're covering him.
Miguel tells the mercs he got a tip Adelita was holed up in this town. Marcus exits the store, holding tight to Adelita, gun pointed at her head. The mercs put their guns down and take custody of Adelita. She plays the part well, spitting and cursing at Miguel.
After the mercs haul her away, Miguel slams his fist into a building in rage and frustration.

The Department of Public Service provides services to the citizens and also to other city departments that enhance public safety and health. The department is comprised of two technical and three operational divisions.
The City of Charleston's multi-disciplinary staff task force has developed a comprehensive inventory of initiatives to provide an overall strategy and guiding framework to make the City more resilient to sea level rise and recurrent flooding. A full copy of the report can be found here.
The city has begun work to complete the FEMA Hazard Mitigation Grant application which will be directed towards the buyout of certain repetitive flood loss properties on behalf of property owners. The pre-application is due in April this year, and final applications are due in October. Then there will be a period of review before grants are awarded. We are confident that our grant request will be successful, but it is going to take time to get through the multi-step process. At the appropriate time, the city will solicit input from residents about how the buyout process is structured.

In a declaration marked by his characteristic passive-aggressiveness, Marc Canter is predicting big changes for social networking in 2008. Canter's swaggering aside, the man knows a thing or two about social networks. It was almost 18 months ago when he started talking about how social networks will become a feature of many web apps; it took me a lot longer to figure that one out. He is being similarly astute in his 2008 outlook.
Canter, who runs an often overlooked social software company called Broadband Mechanics, believes social networks will become more open in 2008, and the world at large will come to realize the benefits of interoperability between various nets.
OpenID2, oAuth and APML – are the names of the standards which we'll be using to build this inter-connected mesh. … So 2008 will see a growth in the ability of end-users to freely move between networks – taking their social graphs with them.
Canter is right on the money. Just as IM networks went from being silos to loose federations, so much social nets. Remember when mobile carriers got their SMS systems to interoperate? The usage exploded and everyone made money — never mind the millions of somewhat happy customers.
Canter also predicts that digital life aggregators will be big in 2008.
..this is a term I use to refer to Portals 2.0. This is what NetVibes is, iGoogle and what AOL and Microsoft are doing. Facebook is redefining DLAs and MySpace has their own notion as well. The best part of DLAs is that they're not set in stone and that each vendor can add their own twist, feature set and attitude towards them, while still adhering to the principles of the idea.
In his end-of-the-year update, he lets us know that he has raised $400,000 in angel money, has at least eight live social networks using his software (which he also offers as a service) and is currently working with Bell Canada on an experimental social network.
White labeling gives us an opportunity to build a stable, profitable business not beholden upon VC funding which of course will make us a great investment for some large institution or private equity fund.
Did I mention he was passive-aggressive?
When I returned from dinner and watching "National Treasure this evening, I found our site down.
I've never seen any evidence that Marc's aggression is passive.
We at Invivo are in the same business of socializing enterprise applications and creating niche social networking apps. Our first application called Corners (http://www.corners.in) was released a week ago (by our client).
"Social networking" of the Orkut, myspace, facebook type will change from a mere list of friends to browse about – A network should offer something for a casual visitor – interesting content, stumbling opportunitities, contextual views of the content and more. We have done it with Corners. We are working on integrating this with one of the clients enterprise app.
@ Anan : you are so right . having meet Marc at Delhi Barcamp i can identify with your sentiment .
What Om means by me being passive is that I refuse to put pressure on him or Arrington for coverage. I truly believe that its their job to decide when and if myself and my company deserve it. So I often hint and cajole, but never ask for props or cred.
When I returned from dinner and watching "National Treasure this evening, I found our site down.
You won't be finding Ning down – not as long as Marc Andreessen is running that company. So we still have a way to go.
And finally to Om – you are my hero for no other reason that you've lost weight and look GREAT! Now I have something to strive for!
And I love the term 'Broadband bandits' cause I'm a Broadband Mechanic!
cantor, winer, gillmor, kapor: these pontificating geezers are so difficult to work with that they can not attract enough talent to build the next big thing.
Having known Marc for a long time, I would say I speak from first hand knowledge.
On him being right about social networking issues, I don't think it is an issue for me to be delayed in getting my thinking right on those subjects. My post pretty much states that Marc is the man ahead of everyone on all issues social.
I am not sure how you get the impression that I am upset about marc being right before I am. :-) I am actually acknowledging that Marc got it right long before we all even started to contemplate the complexities of it all.
I've never seen any evidence that Marc's aggression is passive. But he's usually right, and this is an important issue.
You didn't make the jump in this particular item, but whether people have choices like this is a crucial issue for Facebook.
Jeez, nothing passive-aggressive about this post :-) Canter is one of the small cadre of true prophets in Silicon Valley. FWIW, Om, you shouldn't be upset that Marc was right before you were on this topic — it's not your strength. Your strength is telco, broadband, anything tied to PHY layer. There are only one or two people I would consider more authoritative than you on that topic.
Om, Good to see you finally coming around on this topic.

I picked up this little curiosity from its original owner. It's a Georgena Terry Despatch petite womans road bike. These were made in Japan between 1986 and '89 for the American market. I don't think many made it to Europe.
This one came to Scotland from the US via Ireland with the original owner.
It has 700c rear wheel and 24" front which enables the top tube to be short.
The frame is Tange #1 and the groupset is Suntour Cyclone 7000. It has a nice fluted seatpost and Sakae GT bars with Dia Compe aero levers.
Condition is good with some rust caused by it lying outside this past winter when the owners shed blew down.
Looks like I'll be hanging onto it cause my 11 year old daughter has fallen in love with it and wants to come out on the road with me !
You were just ahead of me in the Gumtree queue for this! Interesting bike and hope that your daughter enjoys it. If you happen to sell it on do let me know. Not often that you see a decent road bike that would suit my very petite girlfriend!
Thanks for the welcome. Hope your daughter is okay - and that she's got straight back on!

'Jericho' cancelled, decent civilization ends
[This continues — or concludes, I guess, a months-long conversation I've been having with myself over at Film.com about the CBS series 'Jericho'. To read the whole thing, start here, then: more, more, yet more, still more, and the last.]
Okay, time to move to another planet. Jericho's been cancelled.
It's not like Jericho was My Favorite Show Ever or anything, though I'd stuck with it despite its many problems, even through the ridiculous months-long hiatus that seems to be the new norm for network dramas this year. What makes me really mad is how representative the Jericho story is of the utter dim-wittedness of network television today.
Like that three-month hiatus the network put the show on starting in November 2006. Viewership had dropped off when Jericho returned in late February, after 12 weeks of no episodes — not even reruns — and this was, apparently, part of why the show got the axe. Who can I smack over this? Could CBS possibly have been surprised that the show — any show — would lose viewers when it disappears for three months? This is not how you build an audience.
CBS's idiocy is clear in the letter to viewers posted in the message boards of the show's official site. This is Kelly Kahl, Senior Executive Vice President of Programming Operations:
Dear Jericho Fans
We here at CBS have listened to your complaints in relation to the cancelation of the television Show Jericho.
At CBS we never cancel a show without a great deal of communication between our public groups and you the fans.
It was believed that Jericho had lost a significant amount of fans since the original pilot of the show.
We always feel that a show must carry its audience regardless of breaks or temporary periods within the transmission season.
In other words, it's your fault if you can't keep up with all the jerking around a network does. Oh, and don't think letting your TiVo keep up with the show will help: if you're watching at any time other than the live broadcast, you might as well not be watching at all, as far as the network is concerned.
More from Kelly:
CBS retain the full viewing rights to Jericho, and it is possible that a finale episode could be put into planning for the 2009/2010 season.
Translation: Major Dad's corpse is gonna rot while you wait for his funeral, which might come along in two years or so. Or not. Suckers.
More corporate droning:
Despite this cancelation we would like to advise you the viewer that CBS offers many great Shows such as CSI-Miami as well as others.
What she means: If you've been drooling over Skeet Ulrich, may we suggest that David Caruso would be a good substitute? If you'd like to find out how the war between Jericho and New Bern is going, watch CSI Miami. If you'd like to know who is behind the nukes in the first place, watch CSI Miami.
Is she kidding?
Fans are pissed. I'm pissed. I just invested a television season's worth of time and attention in this show, and for what? To be left hanging, with the story unresolved and the characters in limbo? And networks should be killing to hang onto the kind of passionate, active fandom Jericho has developed on the show's official site.
Way to kill TV viewership, CBS. And I don't just mean for one show: I mean for all shows. Why should any of us viewers you've screwed with Jericho trust CBS ever again? Shouldn't we wait at least a full TV season to see whether you're going to stand behind a show before we waste our time with it?
And that's not even why I'm really pissed. I'm really pissed because the humanistic Jericho's been cancelled at the same time that the wingnut wet dream 24 has been renewed for another two years. Jericho was in many ways the anti 24 (as I wrote on Film.com), blatantly rejecting the kinds of values that 24 espouses — torture, paranoia, suspicion, bigotry — and it didn't need to create some imaginary liberal paradise in which to do it. No: the world of Jericho, for the characters as individuals as well as for the United States and the planet as a whole, is actually far more dire than the world of 24, and geez, it turns out that reason and justice and crap like that still works, is still worth fighting for.
I justify wasting time on mere fluff like writing about TV and movies by telling myself that looking at entertainment and pop culture in a context larger than that of a single TV series or a single movie is important, that it offers a window into our culture that is important, that even mere fluff isn't mere fluff. And what this tells me is terrifying. Though I should hardly be surprised, not when Republican presidential debates sound like episodes of 24 themselves, with the candidates invited by the moderator to imagine the total awesomeness of terrorists of their own to torture, and one candidate invokes torture-meister Jack Bauer in a "classic" line that draws "a large round of applause."
So, sure, Jericho's just a TV show, but what does its dismissal say about us as a culture?

Well, there's still hope that Veronica Mars can come back for a fourth season re-imagined as a "Quantico" themed show.
Jurgan
Reading your comments on Jericho, I had just recently decided to try to get into it if there were a DVD release or something. I particularly liked how you described the torture episode and its contrast to 24, a show that got boring halfway through season 2 and, from what I've heard, became downright reprehensible a couple years later. Now, though, I wonder if it's worth trying to watch it. I'm still upset over John Doe being canceled after one season, and that was back in 2003. Let me put it this way: supposing there were an opportunity to watch the whole season, do you think it would be worth it, knowing that it'll probably never be continued?
And seriously, CSI: Miami? What the hell?
I heartily approve. I'm one of the many Jericho fans, hoping for some news that CBS regrets its decision, and came across this. Keep up the good work. Maybe CBS will manage to dig itself out of the hole it dug by bringing it back for a second season.
why cancel Jericho i love this show it was just getting interesting i wanted to see what was going to happen next please dont cancel another good show like tv companys like doing i finaly like a good show an than bam tv companys cancel the show and your the tv companys put on a very stupid show that realy sucks bad to replace them thanx james meyer

Thanks so very much for writing this. You put into eloquent words what I could not… in fact, every time I started into another try at "hate mail" to CBS for cancelling Jericho, it would only come out as "AarrgggghhH!!!!! Blurb blah bloo."
Excellent contrast/compare with "24," by the way. I would hope my nation would look so much more like "Jericho" than Jack Bauer's fantasy world, were that awful day to ever come.
Is there any chance, any at all, that Jericho could be picked up by another network? Or is CBS, in its statement, essentially telling us we're all screwed?
Jason Vito
Thanks for your article. Here's to hoping that CBS comes to their senses when they realize what a bomb their new lineup will be. I feel confident that the new shows will do worse than Jericho, and in the end, I still believe this story is just begining.
One other thing:
"Oh, and don't think letting your TiVo keep up with the show will help: if you're watching at any time other than the live broadcast, you might as well not be watching at all, as far as the network is concerned."
That kind of makes sense to me. TV is free because advertisers pay the bill, yet anyone with TiVo is probably going to skip through the commercials. So why should TiVo watchers be counted? I think TiVo is moving us to a place where all TV will be pay-per-view.
Jonathan Waite
For what it's worth, I gave up on 24 this year and latched onto Jericho. It's s shame, really, because I was really getting into it, especially with this new twist in the story involving New Bern and the struggle for power. I guess it's back to waiting until 10 pm to turn on the TV on Wednesday nights now.
Joe the anti-TV Guy
Jericho was a great *idea* for 21st century TV show, you are so right. I think I watched it for that reason. Love your 'anti-24'comment: people working together, solving problems, saving the best of the past, innovation and dealing with the present in constructive way , etc. What is constructive about 24? Nothing.
I think many older people (like me) got into it as we lived through "the bomb' era of the US vs. the USSR—we were programmed to have anxiety about WWIII and that was why Jericho caught our attention.
It was not nearly as well written or acted as Battlestar Galactica. Jereicho's writing and producing was just getting up to speed and the acting was hit or miss as a result of the first two problems. And I have been amazed that no one has pointed out that Jericho really was 'Battlestar Galactica' in Kansas.
What now –except not watching major network TV? The SciFi Channel should take Jericho and give it to the BG showrunners to 'revision' as a miniseries and series. It would be a big hit!

Thank you for the wonderful article. Don't give up hope! There's talk that TNT may be interested in picking up the series; to that end, a lot of us from the CBS boards have begun to invade the TNT boards to plead our case; there's already a few hundred of us since late last night. There's a petition that started Tuesday night that as of this moment has 32747 signatures. We've also begun the "NUTS!" campaign, in which all fans are encouraged to send an orginal letter to CBS and include therein a packet of nuts (of course you're free to go further; one poster sent ten pounds!) A sponsor boycott is also getting underway.
The fight to save Jericho has just begun! There is a savejericho .com, .org, and .info that you can visit for more information. (the .org site seems to have the most.)
NOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!
*muttered curses and imprecations hurled TV-ward*
Wow, this is the fastest anything I've posted has garnered this many comments. That says something about *Jericho* fandom. :->
Let me put it this way: supposing there were an opportunity to watch the whole season, do you think it would be worth it, knowing that it'll probably never be continued?
Hmm. Yes. I think it is still worth a look, and I have no doubt you'll have the opportunity to do — CBS or whatever production company owns *Jericho* would be idiotic not to release a "complete series" DVD set. It's worth it for the scenario, to see that Jack Bauer-style paranoia is not the only possible or effective response to the uncertainties of the modern world.
I would guess we're screwed. Though anything is possible.
TV is free because advertisers pay the bill, yet anyone with TiVo is probably going to skip through the commercials. So why should TiVo watchers be counted? I think TiVo is moving us to a place where all TV will be pay-per-view.
This is true, to a point. I often do not fast-forward through commercials, and I would bet that that is true for many people, so we're still getting the same impact of the commercials that we would otherwise. But even a TiVoed show, especially one like this, with a rabid following, brings eyeballs to the official site… and *Jericho* has a particularly active official site with lots of fan activity. CBS is to be commended to getting that part of the new paradigm right: it knows, to a certain degree, how to harness fan passion. So that income has to be factored into the equation of a show's "success." Granted, advertisers aren't there yet… but they will be. TiVo/DVR is absolutely going to change the paradigm of the television industry, and pay-per-view is likely going to be a part of what the New TV looks like as Internet and TV converge.
But that's where CBS screwed up here: it's throwing away what is going to be an even more valuable asset in the very near future than it already is: fan passion. One fan who watches a show and TiVos it and organizes viewing parties and spends time on the official site is going to be far more important than twenty who just watch a show as a pre-bedtime distraction.
I'm not sure what you mean by "older." I'm 37, and I grew up absolutely convinced that I would die in a nuclear war. I watched *The Day After* as a junion-high-schooler. I'm way post-Cuban Missile Crisis. I don't even remember Vietnam. I'm not sure I'm ready to consider myself "older" yet. But you're right: I'm still not over my nuclear anxiety, and probably never will be. (Which is why, in fact, *24* is effective on one level, too.)
Most shows, I think, don't really hit their stride until their second or third year (and, accordingly, *Jericho* was just starting to hit its stride). But few shows are given that long to find an audience. That's not just CBS but every network these days. If something isn't a hit immediately, it's gone. And that's a shame.
Heading into another election year, CBS really can't have people thinking about topics like Jericho sheds light on. Now with FOX you would expect shows like 24, but for the big 3 networks it's time for warm fuzzy thoughts, peace, love and harmony. Fantasy or not this whole Jericho thing might expose a soft under belly of a few individuals for whom they will push an ideology for.
CBS had a loyal fan base they just dismissed. They got lazy with their lobotomized CSI episodes and cheaply made reality shows. I hope Jericho gets picked up by NBC or another station. Please keep writing articles and getting the word out!!!
Actually, I believe Jericho is/was better than Battlestar Galactica, in at least the characters were likeable, even that ol' rascal Jonah Prowse. Will we ever figure out Valente's agenda? How much damage has been done to the US by Ravenwood/Blackwater? Aargh!
The kicker of course is the continuing renewal of absolute drivel on the tube.
Time to boycott CBS. Then again, I'm in Canada which has decided to remain neutral in the three-sided civil war that was brewing before being preempted by cancellation.
Double Aargh!

Jericho was the one show I watched on CBS. Now it's gone. Sayonara, Tiffany Network.

I completely agree with your comments. CBS is absolutely crazy to not stick by this show! It is one of the very few worth viewing from the beginning. At this point, I can't trust CBS to watch any new shows that appear in their lineup. It is shameful that they cancel a show and then use the excuse that it's because the viewership went down during the hiatus that CBS imposed on the new drama in the first place!!! That is pure LUNACY!!!
Fri, May 18, 2007 10:30am
go to jericholives.com- they are fighting to keep the show alive – – i agree with all of your comments and the new cbs shows look awful!!!!!!
Fri, May 18, 2007 12:29pm
A terrific post on how TV Stations destroys shows nowadays…
Just like FOX did with Firefly……
BRING JERICHO BACK!
You are spot on, MaryAnn! The bone head move by CBS bodes ill for all television in general , and serials in particular.
I am done with CBS. I hope someone like TNT picks up Jericho and its 8 Million viewers.
Chad B
Damn straight!!! CBS management are a bunch of out of touch thumb sucking crime drama loving idiots!!!
They must have had a grudge againt someone working with Jericho because CBS MADE SURE IT GOT CANCELLED by giving it absolutely no chance what-so-ever with the way they presented it.
NUTS CBS!!!
Save Jericho!

Bravo…great article. Describes just how it seems that a lot of people are feeling these days. I suppose Jericho may not have been the right show for everyone…some nitpicked it's technical innacuracies while overlooking the deeper messages, and I guess other's just don't have the attention span. Thus we have shows about real people eating bugs for money, etc. I also don't think CBS handled it and promoted it correctly. Jericho was a show for the thinking folks, and judging by the buzz going around the internet at the moment, the people who were into it were DEEPLY hooked. I hope the buzz keeps going and the fight to save the show is somehow successful. The show is a real gem, and if given the time and proper promotion such that more of the right type of people could experience it, more would get hooked. Plus, if word starts getting out through the media about the commotion this is causing, it would give more folks a reason to tune in next year and see what they're missing and what the buzz is all about. CBS has an opportunity to turn things around and make this a win-win situation for us all.

CBS better not become the new FOX.
I truly don't understand what networks expect. Isn't it a written rule that every time you change the date and time of your show you're going to lose viewers? Isn't it reasonable for people to expect that if something stops airing halfway through, then it must have been canceled, even if they don't do a web search to confirm that it has been canceled?
I hadn't really thought of Jericho as the anti-24 before reading your articles, but I think it fits. 24 became outlandish and laughable some time around the end of season 2. And yet it lingers. I have no idea why. I tried watching this season, and it was… eh. Until they captured the bad guys halfway through and then suddenly it became the Jack Bauer melodrama hour. And then I didn't care one whit and stopped recording it.
Also, re: your comments on Major Dad dying… I had the exact same reaction. I knew it was sad. I wanted to be sad. All the proper elements and planets were in alignment for me to be devastated. And it just didn't happen. Not sure why.
And thank you for calling Skeet the Johnny Depp for TV. I thought I was the only one.

About 10 or 11 years ago there was a show on CBS called Due South starring Pual Gross. It was about a Canadian Mountey who came to Chicago to find his fathers killer. It was an indirect comedy/drama and I thought it was awsome. CBS decided to cancel the show after the first season so that they could put on more show like Becker and other lame comedys. When most of the new line-up flopped they brought Due South back. Then they canceled it again after season 2. The same result happened all over again. This time in season 3 most of the supporting cast got tired of being jerked around and didnt come back until the finnal 2 episodes.
How much you wanna bet that CBS tries to use jericho as a safety net if these new shows flop?, I hope they can get most of the cast back for it. I believe this show has propeled most of the cast into the getting noticed section of hollywood.

Ka Punahou • April 4, 2021 • https://kapunahou.org/1352/uncategorized/the-show-must-go-on-2/
Kanoe Sills '23, Staff Writer
In fall of the 2021-2022 school year, the Punahou Theater Department is putting on the play Radium Girls. Mrs. Melinda Moore, the director, explained how she envisioned a spectacular show that's relevant to students. With enough safety protocols in place, the show is designed perfectly for pandemic times.
Radium Girls, written by D.W. Gregory, is the story of three women who work in a radium plant during the early 1900s. Set in New Jersey, the audience will learn the story of these women, who were responsible for using radium to make watch faces glow in the dark. During these times, which was before scientists revealed the element was toxic, the public believed it could cure cancer. Radium was widely used since it made the perfect glowing accessory for clothing, makeup, and hair products. To make watch faces glow in the dark, the women would dip their paint brushes in the radium. To get a more precise point on the brushes, they would lick them; doing this allowed the women to make more watches and get paid more money. The factories covered up the cause of death of these women, which prolonged the use of radium.
This play explores the history behind these women and the world at that time with an exciting storyline, costumes, and sets. With the flapper period and glowing decorations, this performance will be a stunning experience.
To make rehearsals, as well as performances, COVID safe for the cast, crew, and audience, Mrs. Moore has put together a detailed plan. First, the show is only one act, about 70 minutes, so rehearsals and performances will be quicker. Since the cast is under fifteen people, she has decided to have two groups of students perform the Radium Girls. More students will be able to participate without sacrificing safety. Also, having two people play the same role will allow students to learn from each other and compare and contrast their ideas for the character.
Mrs. Moore also made different plans for the production depending on what the COVID level is at that time. She anticipates having voluntary testing for rehearsals and performances. Her dream is to allow students to perform before a live audience without a mask on stage. While getting to this point will take a lot of coordination and planning, it may be possible to have students use masks behind the set and only remove them just before performing.
Backup plans have been put in place to make sure the show goes on. Smaller-sized audiences or recorded performances are the plans if more extreme restrictions are in place for the students. With COVID-19 vaccines administered to adults and some teens, October will have a higher percentage of students and families protected from the virus. Vaccines may help the Theater Department transition back to somewhat normal performances. Although there are still some kinks to work out, the technical crew is able to work behind the scenes, once again. The theater faculty and staff anticipate set building, assistant directing, and costume-making positions to be filled by students. Proper distancing, and face mask use, will continue to remain a priority to make the show as safe as possible.
Mrs. Moore wants to send a thank you to all of the students for patiently waiting for this opportunity to come back. Although it's been a long time since there's been a play at Punahou, she hopes that students will come back and make this show possible. With the dedication from teachers, staff, and kids, the show will go on!

SCAREDY SQUIRREL HAS A BIRTHDAY PARTY by Mélanie Watt
In the fifth book, Scaredy Squirrel plans his own birthday and surprise!… things get very crowded.
Scaredy Squirrel is planning his own birthday party for one – but despite his detailed plans, things get out of control when the party animals arrive.
He's back! Scaredy Squirrel, the loveable worrywart, returns for another nutty adventure. Scaredy never plans big birthday parties. He'd rather celebrate alone quietly in the safety of his nut tree and avoid those pesky party animals (ants, clownfish, ponies and Bigfoot). When all his excessive plans are thrown up in the air like confetti, will Scaredy play dead and cancel? Or will he face the music?

SMALL SAUL by Ashley Spires
From the creator of Binky the Space Cat, a hilarious story about an unconventional little pirate.
Ahoy there! Will this sweet little pirate find his place aboard The Rusty Squid or will he be forced to walk the plank?
When Small Saul joins the crew of The Rusty Squid, it doesn't take long for the other pirates to notice something is very different about this tiny fellow. He was born to sing sea shanties, bake pineapple upside down cakes and redecorate, not to hold a sword and plunder. Being rough and tough just isn't in his nature.
Small Saul learned at Pirate College that pirates only care about three things: their ship, being tough and lots and lots of treasure. Can Small Saul show these ruffians that despite his gentle spirit, he's worth his weight in gold? With treasure chests of laughs, Small Saul's high-seas adventure is a light-hearted celebration of individuality, perseverance and being true to one's self.
Grades: PreSchool to 2

YOU'RE FINALLY HERE! by Mélanie Watt (creator of the Scaredy Squirrel series)
A zany picture book that will resonate with anyone who's ever been kept waiting.
The latest from the creator of the best-selling Scaredy Squirrel series stars a hilariously needy and impatient bunny. This is no ordinary picture-book character, and it will quickly become clear that this is no ordinary picture book – namely because you, the reader, are on the spot. You're late!
At first, this little bunny is deliriously excited by your arrival, but now that you're finally here, he wants to know: where were you? He's been waiting long enough to learn an accordion solo, among other time-consuming pursuits.
After he's shown you how it feels to be kept waiting and just when he's finally satisfied that you're a good steady page-turner who's here to stay, something happens to turn the tables. The result is an off-beat ending worth waiting for!

I'd say Sam & Friends isn't just for girls, my son's loved the first three.
Kevin Boyd
I agree, I was surprised that they made a point of mentioning that in the promo. I think perhaps they are trying to counter the natural bias that mystery books are specifically for boys. The Sam & Friends books are definitely of interest to both boys and girl. There's a reason why they keep getting nominated in the "Comics for Kids" category.

How to cope with #cancer #treatment : @BlueHeronBW author Fanny Barry's new release
Today I'd like to welcome Blue Heron Book Works author Fanny Barry to talk about her re-release of I Wish I Knew:
Fanny: "So proud that my I Wish I Knew books for breast cancer patients, family, and friends have been republished! Nearly 15 years after the event, they are all together and in color, and available on Amazon: https://www.amazon.com/dp/0999146025
"So blessed to still be here with them with the hope that they help others.
Thank you Blue Heron Book Works and my cousin and graphic designer extraordinaire Megan for making this happen. They could be the best thing I have done! But who knows, I am not done yet!"
Fanny Barry's trilogy, I Wish I Knew…Notes from a Breast Cancer Survivor is now in one full-color volume. Fanny gives wise and witty advice on coping with treatment, how to help friends who are undergoing treatment, and how to make sense of who you've become after undergoing cancer treatments.
About the author: Fanny Barry, a native of Boston, Massachusetts, is a writer, artist, engineer, and yoga teacher who wrote the I Wish I Knew books as part of her recovery process from breast cancer. She moved to Tulum, Mexico shortly after surviving cancer where she re-built her life from the ground up, literally. She recently published her memoir about her adventures in survival called Map of Life and Beauty. She manages a yoga studio and shalla in Tulum, Mexico called Tribal tribaltulum.com. She blogs at her website thatbarrygirl.com.

The Soldier's Return is the second book in the Heaven's Pond Trilogy.
Readers' Favorite announces the review of the Fiction – Historical book "The Soldier's Return" by Laura Libricz.
Reviewed By Arya Fomonyuy for Readers' Favorite: After ten years, a young Dutchman, Pieter van Diemen, is returning to Amsterdam in chains, after being captured and imprisoned in the Spice Islands. But he can't stay in Amsterdam. After his escape, the only place he hopes to find solace is Sichardtshof, a farm in Franconia, Germany. But after being away for ten years, will it still be the same and will he still find the hospitality and warmth of the patrician, Herr Tucher, and his maid, Katarina? Follow the protagonist during a period of turbulence, of conflict between Catholics and Protestants. It is against this backdrop that Pieter navigates through deadly traps and dangerous terrain to find refuge, but can he? The Soldier's Return by Laura Libricz is a powerful historical novel with a strong setting and memorable characters.
The language is what first caught my attention: it is beautiful, at times poetic, and it unveils elements of the religious, historical, and cultural settings in intelligent and relevant ways. Apart from writing a gripping story, Laura Libricz has taken readers on a historic ride to relive the religious conflicts of the seventeen century, weaving into her narrative great social, religious, and political commentaries. I enjoyed the descriptive style of the narrative, the well-written dialogues, and the surprises and twists in the plot. The tone is unique and compelling, the conflict huge and masterfully handled. It is no wonder that The Soldier's Return will appeal immensely to fans of historical novels with great settings and compelling characters.
