KIDS CORNER www. familyfun.go.com
Waterproof Beach Bag
This colorful, rinseable carryall is the perfect beach bag
for kids -- great for packing up gear, collecting sandy
treasures, or toting wet suits and towels.
Beach Bowling
The appeal of seaside bowling lies in its advantages
bare feet allowed, the alley’s free, and there’s an
unlimited supply of pins.
Materials
13-gallon garbage bag
Scissors
Colored duct tape (we used red and white)
Marker or pen
Yardstick or measuring tape
4 (2-foot) pieces of white cotton cording
Instructions
1. Waterproof Beach Bag - Step 1 Turn the
garbage bag into a large sheet by cutting along
one side seam and the bottom seam. Tape the
sheet flat to your workspace and draw a 16- by
30-inch rectangle on it. Cover the rectangle
with slightly overlapping strips of red and
white tape.
2. Waterproof Beach Bag - Step 2 Cut out the
tape rectangle and flip it tape-side down.
3. Waterproof Beach Bag - Step 3 Lay 2 pieces
of cording across the rectangle about an inch
from one of the shorter ends. Fold that end
over the cording and tape it down to make a
casing. Repeat this at the opposite end with
the other pieces of cording.
What You Need: Plastic cup and a ball
Instructions
1. Beach Bowling - Step 1 Make 10 pins by filling a cup
with moist sand (add water if the sand is too dry to
hold a shape). Carefully turn the cup over and lift it off.
Create the pins in a triangle with one pin in front, two
pins in the next row, three in the next and four in the
back row.
2. Draw a line in the sand about 6 or 8 feet from the
pins. Take turns standing behind the line and rolling
a softball or other small ball toward the pins to knock
them over. Each player gets to roll the ball twice.
3. Count how many pins you knock over, set them up
again and keep score in the sand.
Beachside Baby Pool
Set a small inflatable wading pool under an umbrella
and fill it with toys and ocean water. Little ones will
still get the full beach experience -- in wave-free
miniature -- and older siblings can busy themselves
fetching buckets of brine.
4. Waterproof Beach Bag - Step 4 Fold the
rectangle in half and tape the sides together to
form the bag.
5. Waterproof Beach Bag - Step 5 To make the
drawstring, pair up one cord from each casing
and knot them together at both ends. Repeat
with the remaining 2 cords, then pull one knot
at each side to cinch the bag.

Regular Monthly Bus Pass (TAP Only)
Description
Metro Monthly
Metro Zone 1
Metro Zone 2
Metro Disabled Pass
Student Monthly Pass
Ingredients
6 bags black tea (any kind)
1/4 cup plus 2 tablespoons packed light brown sugar
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
1 orange
2 racks baby back ribs (about 2 pounds)
2 pounds russet potatoes, peeled and cut into 3/4-inch chunks
1/2 cup mayonnaise
1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley
1 lemon
Directions
Empty 3 tea bags into a bowl
and combine the loose tea
with 1/4 cup brown sugar,
2 teaspoons salt and 1/4
teaspoon pepper. Grate in
the orange zest. Pat the ribs
dry and trim the membrane
from the underside. Rub
the tea mixture over the
ribs; place in a roasting pan,
meat-side up, and bring to
room temperature, about 20
minutes.
Preheat the oven to 275 degrees F. Steep the remaining 3 tea bags in
2 cups boiling water, about 5 minutes. Discard the bags and stir in the
remaining 2 tablespoons brown sugar and the juice of half the orange.
Pour the mixture around the ribs in the pan. Cover with foil and roast
until tender, about 1 hour 30 minutes.
Meanwhile, put the potatoes in a pot of salted water; bring to a
simmer and cook until tender, about 5 minutes. Drain and cool
slightly. Mix the mayonnaise and parsley in a large bowl. Grate in the
zest of half the lemon; add the juice of the lemon half. Fold in the
potatoes and add 11/2 teaspoons salt, and pepper to taste; refrigerate
until ready to serve.
Remove the ribs from the oven and increase the temperature to 450.
Pour the cooking liquid into a saucepan and bring to a simmer over
medium-high heat. Baste the ribs with some of the liquid, then return
to the oven and cook, uncovered, basting a few times, until the ribs are
dark and glazed, 20 to 30 minutes.
When the remaining liquid in the saucepan is syrupy, add lemon juice
to taste. Brush the ribs with the glaze. Cut the racks into pieces and
serve with the potato salad.

Know Your Employees’ Association
Downed Workers Program
Your Los Angeles Water and Power Employees’ Association
has introduced a new component of its assistance programs.
As it has done since the early 1930’s, your Water & Power
Employees’ Association added the Downed Workers Program
to complement the benefits offered by the Department and
Local 18.
The new Downed Workers Program will assist family members
of Department employee that requires hospitalization after
sustaining work related injuries. We know that having loved
ones nearby helps recovery, and eases stress during these
difficult times. This program provides instant monetary
disbursements for the cost of family member transportation,
housing, food, and other miscellaneous expenses incurred
while attending to, or visiting the injured employee, with no
expectation of repayment. Upon release from the hospital,
a recovering employee may seek assistance from our other
programs, such as, medical equipment grants and emergency
loans.
We thank the Power System for conceiving this program
and introducing it to the Employees’ Association Board
of Directors in early 2009. Representatives of the Power
Safety & Training Group also met with our Board on several
occasions to develop program guidelines. In November 2009,
the Employees’ Association Board approved the guidelines
and allocated funding for program establishment. In March
2010 program introduction began at quarterly Safety
meetings and in New Employee Orientations. The response
was immediate, and employees generously contributed to the
Donors’ Welfare Plan.
The new Downed Workers Program fulfills our stated mission
of providing assistance to employees and their families.
We should be proud to have programs that help our fellow
employees and the community during difficult times.
Remember, all assistance programs rely on Donors’ Welfare
Plan funding, so we seek your support in promoting this
program and encouraging employees to contribute.
