Quote: I have moved on to a DiscMount DM4 and have not looked back; soooooooo stable and easy to use. I still have the DesertSky DSV-M which is more akin to a DiskMount than to its larger siblings, and I enjoy it for travel with my TV85.
Quote:Look for a stable tripod with the mount you choose.
Quote:Hi ThomasI Own a Stellarvue m2 with losmandy saddle and extension column. I mounted it on an old Polaris aluminum tripod. I have a William optics 98mm flt refractor that weighs a bit and I was concerned about the weight distribution over the tripod. The M2 hangs the scope off the side. I added to the spreaders on the tripod legs making it lower and wider and filled the lower legs with sand (epoxy sealed). It is now solid as a rock. My concerns for you is that you are looking for an inexpensive tripod, but want to put more weight on it than is practical. Pushing the limit of the weight capability of the mount and tripod is asking for an expensive accident. The m2 is approaching $350-370 (with column) and you have to add a tripod. I actually bought a travel tripod from stellarvue to use with this mount. It arrived the other day (waited 8 months) and it is not acceptable for the upper rating of the tripod. I will stay with what I built. Look for a stable tripod with the mount you choose. You're not running motors here, but pushing your scope around and worse, tripping around in the dark. Don't forget the weight and size of diagonals and eyepieces and cameras also. You also, like I did, have the choice of adding the right tripod that is stable to some of these mounts. I also went to Neaf last year to search for a mount. You will find many choices and be able to make the best choice for you.
Quote:Okay, so if slow motion controls are a strict requirement (which seems quite reasonable to me, especially if viewing at 200-300x), then I'm back to...Desert Sky DSV-2, Explore Scientific Twilight,Astro-Tech Voyager, andOrion Versa GO III.Sounds like the DSV-2 is still in the lead, since it can handle two scopes!
Quote:You are absolutely right Turk. I remember reading someplace that the tripod weight should be at least 1/2 the weight of the OTA and mount combined. A skimpy lightweight tripod will ruin the setup. Of course a big heavy tripod is not convenient for grab and go... A UA Microstar or dwarf star on a Bogen Tripod would suit the needs of the OP fine in my opinion. Good luck and please post your decision
Quote: My SV70 has never been above 100X. The sweet thing about this scope is the wide FOV for big deep sky objects. Maybe that 6" can do it but I doubt the slow-mo capabilities of these mounts at 200-300x.
Quote:If high magnification is a big deal.. And since we are already talking about a big tripod and all... You might just want to buy the NEXTAR GoTo mount and tripod.. You will be able to mount either scope.. And track at high magnification. Apples and oranges IMHO. Sounds like you need both a lightweight grab and go setup, and also a heavier field mount with tracking capability.
Quote: I'd love to look at a DSV-1 or DSV-2 before then, but I don't know anyone in the Northeast who owns either
Quote:I'm planning on buying a small alt-az mount at NEAF this year for . It will typically be used with my little StellarVue SVR70ED (4.5 lbs plus diagonal, red dot finder, eyepiece, etc.), but might also be used with my AT6RC (12lbs plus diagonal, finder, eyepiece, etc.).
I'm considering the Astro-Tech Voyager, Versa Go III, Vixen Porta II Mount, and the Explore Scientific Twilight. They all retail for about $300, give or take $20.
Any suggestions one way or the other would be appreciated.

To help maintain the integrity of our supply chain, Tiffany & Co. established Laurelton Diamonds in 2002, a wholly owned subsidiary that procures rough diamonds and manages our worldwide supply chain that sources, cuts, polishes and supplies finished stones to Tiffany & Co.
Tiffany & Co. recognizes that diamond-producing countries are entitled to benefit from their diamond resources; we support producer country beneficiation. We believe that diamond activities should be used to further develop and sustain economies, to create employment opportunities and to support the broader social goals of communities and nations.
Our first investment in a producer country was in Yellowknife, Canada in 2002. Since then we have invested in cutting and polishing operations in the following diamond-producing countries: Botswana, Namibia and South Africa. In Calendar Year 2012, we provided over $90 million* in beneficiation to the local economies, including payments to local suppliers, payroll, donations and taxes. This figure rose from $63 million in 2011 due to an increase in purchases of rough diamonds from these three countries.
In order to further invest in these communities, we hire local employees to work in, and ultimately manage, our facilities. Laurelton Diamonds provides on-the-job training for employees, to provide a lasting impact on the development of the country. Our facilities have custom-designed, state-of-the-art equipment and our employee development and training programs are designed to equip the local workforce to meet Tiffany & Co.'s exacting quality standards. Local employees make up 90%* of the workforce in Laurelton's facilities in Botswana, Namibia and South Africa. Additionally, the Tiffany & Co. Social Accountability Program includes Laurelton Diamonds facilities to ensure that employees are offered a safe and respectful working environment.
Tiffany has worked with outside contractors and academics to ensure that we provide our skilled workforce fair wages for its work. In 2009, we began to conduct living wage studies at each Laurelton Diamonds location to ensure that trainees are paid above minimum wage in the area and that skilled workers receive salaries at and above the living wage. Tiffany defines a living wage as the rate, which is required to support an employee, meet financial obligations of the employee's dependents and provide some discretionary income. The living wage reflects the expectations of the particular society at the time the calculation is made. In 2013, Laurelton management will conduct an in-depth analysis of our living wage program to ensure that it is meeting its intended goal to provide workers with fair and equitable compensation.

When the recession hit, our sorest loss was the number of young couples we had visit Inn on Main Street. We can only suppose that the credit crunch and insecurity about their jobs made them tighten their belts more than others.
Young folks bring a hope and vitality to any group, and we especially like young folks because they tend to like the outdoor attractions that we love here in the mountains surrounding Asheville and Weaverville.
We're grateful now that our younger guests are returning in greater numbers, and bringing their sense of adventure.
A daily deluge brought some recent guests of the younger persuasion our way, Dayami and Sean from Miami. They'd originally planned to stay in some rentals near Hot Springs, but learned that their accommodations fell victim to days of torrential rain that ushered July in this year. They called us, and we had an opening.
I get energized just hearing their agenda. Ziplines at Navitat Canopy Tours. Horseback riding at Sandy Bottom Trail Rides. Whitewater rafting.
They were a sweet and fun couple, and we hope they'll return. We have trails and waterfalls to share, many more rivers to raft, and of course more breakfasts to savor.

Banana blossom
Our grove of bananas here in paradise
You might say we've been expecting for some time at Inn on Main Street. This baby has been about 12 years in the birthing.
We traded our old bistro tables and chairs to Stephen Painter several years back for a couple banana plants that he said were cold-hardy to Michigan. No, they don't grow green and bushy through the winter, but you can leave the tubers in the ground after the tops freeze each winter, and they'll come right back in the spring, even here in the mountains. Those two trees developed into a couple groves of trees, one of which makes the area around our koi pond look like a slice of Costa Rica. Our guests get a kick out of it, and the question always comes up: "Have you gotten any bananas from them?"
As Stephen, who owned Painters Greenhouse for years, tells it, a banana plant has to produce a certain number of leaves before it will flower and bear fruit. And that process normally takes two years. When winter kills the plants to the ground, the counter starts all over again next spring. We have potted banana plants that haven't produced flowers after a decade of uninterrupted growth, so we resigned ourselves to going 'nannerless.
A couple days ago, Nancy spotted what appeared to be an ear of corn growing out of one of the plants. It's a flower bud as big as Popeye's forearm, but without the anchor tattoo. The husk is starting to peel back, revealing the stamens. That last winter was so mild that our plants somehow beat the freeze, I guess.
We hope our Florida friends will forgive our breathless banana baby watch, but we can't help but get excited. We hope to keep providing updates and show the monster blossom to all our guests. And if we actually get bananas after all, so much the sweeter.

We've had a bounty of rain at Inn on Main Street lately. Around Weaverville and Asheville, the ground has become saturated and slipped away under roads and houses.
That misfortune translates into a fantastic opportunity for cyclists. Shifting ground created a crack in the Blue Ridge Parkway, forcing the Park Service to close the scenic highway to traffic between Bull Gap near Weaverville all the way to Mount Mitchell.
There's an exception for bicycle riders. Walk your bike around the barricade and you have miles of America's most scenic highway to yourself and a handful of other riders, with no fear of getting hit by a car.
We often ride up there in the winter when the barricades are closed, but occasional ice and fallen branches can cramp the style of a serious rider going 40 mph on a downhill. Conditions now are ideal.

- Bring a saucepan of lightly salted water to a boil, stir in the tortellini, bring back to a boil, reduce heat, and simmer the tortellini until they're cooked but not completely tender, about 5 minutes. Drain the tortellini in a colander set in the sink.
- Preheat oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C). Grease a 1 1/2-quart oval baking dish.
- Heat the butter in a skillet over medium heat. Cook and stir the garlic until fragrant, about 2 minutes. Whisk in the Alfredo sauce and milk; season to taste with salt and pepper. Bring the mixture to a simmer over medium-low heat. Stir in the the tortellini and turkey, mixing just enough to coat the pasta and turkey with the sauce. Spoon the mixture into the prepared baking dish, and sprinkle the top with mozzarella and Parmesan cheeses.
- Bake in the preheated oven until the casserole is hot and bubbling and the cheese topping has melted and begun to brown, 15 to 20 minutes.

Great way to use leftover turkey or roasted chicken. To lower calorie count I used equal parts fat free half and half, and 1% milk. To make it creamier I increased the fluid to equal 1/2 cup. Also used light Alfredo sauce. I used 6 cloves of crushed garlic to heighten the flavor. With the extra fluid it can be made ahead of time, refrigerated, and cooked later without drying out. Next time I will try spinach tortellini for a different flavor. This will definitely be a recipe called upon when leftovers are abundant.
Great recipe! I didn't have tortellini but I did have a box of bow tie pasta. I also added a bag of frozen peas and carrots. We all loved it, including my 3 year old grand daughter! This one is a keeper!
Love this recipe! I typically double the recipe and have used either leftover turkey or chicken. I also add an onion, cooked prior in butter.

Fabulous Fit Im a size 12 with most weight on the bottom. A friend recommended these and that recommendation was spot on. The fit is perfect. They sit in the perfect spot accentuating my curves. The flare leg helps to balance me out! I get so many compliments! ! July 23, 2014
Perfect Fit Love these pants. I will be updating my wardrobe with more colors..I got them in black. Perfect fit for the curvy type. June 27, 2014
Great fit! I have a smaller waist and wide rear, and I have a hard time finding pants. Even "curvy fit" from many stores leave me with a huge waist gap. Sizing - I have 42 inch low hip, 27 inch natural waist, 5'2", 140 lb. Size 10 short fit like a dream and is perfect to wear with low/medium heels, too long for flats. Please make these in more styles! The flare on these pants is exactly as described, and I'd love to buy these in straighter leg shapes. June 21, 2014
Love these pants!!! I am in love with these pants!! The fit is great for my body type. I have a very small waist and "larger" hips so I have always had issues with the dreaded "gap" in the back. These pants solve that problem! I have almost every color. My only issue is I wish they would make as many colors/styles as they do with the other fits they make. June 11, 2014
Love Love Love Lexie - Best fit I'm 5'3 with large bottom/tighs and these pants fit perfectly on all the right areas. I bought all colors except for the brown - sold out on my size. Fabric thickness does vary on the lighter colors, but other than that I love them! Wish they came out with more brighter colors. June 5, 2014
Best fit for curves I have a closet full of Cassidy and Drew fits that will never be worn again, I love Lexie! First pair of dress pants I've ever worn with no gap in the waist. I have a smaller waist with fuller hips and thighs that make pants shopping difficult - not anymore. I need these in brown that's my only complaint otherwise perfect. May 28, 2014
Cheap fabric and Sizing differences I ordered these pants in 3 colors, all three the same size (12L). However, only the Navy color fit, while the light grey/tan colors were tight in the waist. The fabric of these two colors are also very thin, and show every little 'feature' of my nearly (but not quite) perfect rear end. I was very disappointed these did not work for me, as it is very difficult to find long lengthed dress pants in any color other than black. If the material was improved, I would give them another shot, but until then, I'll have to pass. May 28, 2014
great pants I love these pants! I have a small waist and fuller hips and thighs (5'6, 140lbs) and this is one of the few office pants I have that fit well. My only complaint is that of the 4 pairs I have (brown, grey, navy, and black) not one fits the same. The black is tightest around the waist, the grey and navy are longer and fit better with heels, and the brown fits the best. Not sure what's up with that, though I will say the brown and navy are from last year. Otherwise, an awesome addition! April 29, 2014

Charles Lenox, Victorian gentleman and armchair explorer, likes nothing more than to relax in his private study with a cup of tea, a roaring fire and a good book. But when his lifelong friend Lady Jane asks for his help, Lenox cannot resist the chance to unravel a mystery.Prudence Smith, one of Jane's former servants, is dead of an apparent suicide. But Lenox suspects something far more sinister: murder, by a rare and deadly poison. The grand house where the girl worked is full of suspects, and though Prue had dabbled with the hearts of more than a few men, Lenox is baffled by the motive for the girl's death.When another body turns up during the London season's most fashionable ball, Lenox must untangle a web of loyalties and animosities. Was it jealousy that killed Prudence Smith? Or was it something else entirely? And can Lenox find the answer before the killer strikes again—this time, disturbingly close to home?

The fateful note came just as Lenox was settling into his armchair after a long, tiresome day in the city. He read it slowly, handed it back to Graham, and told him to throw it away. Its contents gave him a brief moment of preoccupation, but then, with a slight frown, he picked up the evening edition of the Standard and asked for his tea.
It was a bitterly cold late afternoon in the winter of 1865, with snow falling softly over the cobblestones of London. The clock had just chimed five o'clock, and darkness was dropping across the city--the gas lights

The new Crawford County Link isn't a place, but an information network to help people age 60 and older or those between 18 and 59 with disabilities stay living independently.
Often in the past, residents would have trouble finding out what aid may be available to them, said Donna Stimpson, executive director of Active Aging Inc., the county's agency on aging.
For the past year, personnel from various public and private social service agencies around the county have been cross-trained about what other agencies do and the services they provide — everything from home health care options to senior housing to behavioral services to job assistance.
Collaboration between agencies had always been there, Stimpson said, but sometimes personnel didn't necessarily know what was available from other providers.
"It's the 'no wrong door' concept," Stimpson said. "It's to get people to the services they need without them falling through the cracks."
Joyce O'Brien, state director of the Link program, said the idea is to provide better care to people which leads to better health for the people and lower costs of providing it.
"Doesn't matter where you start," O'Brien said during a recent visit to the 26th annual Crawford County Senior Fest. "The idea is you ask anyone at an agency and they'll know the answer or be able to get it."
There's no charge for assistance provided by Crawford County Link. It will provide funding options available on any service providers who may charge a fee for service.
n More information: Contact Active Aging, 1034 Park Ave., Meadville, at 336-1792 or toll-free at (800) 321-7705, or visit ltlinpa.org.
Keith Gushard can be reached at 724-6370 or by email at firstname.lastname@example.com.
Crawford County Link to Aging and Disability Resources can provide information and support for persons over age 60 and for persons 18 to 59 with disabilities on the following topics:
Assistive technology

Best Uses
I bought this as a trainer, guest, cottage, country ride bike (have a Cannondale CAAD 5) and was pleasantly surprised by the quality and unflappable ride of the RM Oxygen 30. It handles like it has cruise control -- can watch the scenery, eat or drink and it holds its line very well. Installed a trunk rack to the eyelets and it makes a great camera/slash adventure bike. Upright geometry is comfortable on your back, absorbs road noise nicely. Great job RMB! Arrived safely packed and ready to assemble- (it took about an hour)-- shifted perfectly -- Thank you Jenson USA!
Best Uses
I've had the bike for 2 months now and use it quite a bit. This bike (an 11 that I bought in 12) is tremendous value. It rides very smoothly and handles crisply. It has excellent quality and seems durable. It is also a sharp looking bike with the triangular tubing and nice graphics. The carbon seatpost and fork really smooth out the ride. About the only thing I can find wrong with it is that the water bottle mounts are too close together so one bottle cannot seatt fully in its cage.
Best Uses
I've just recently got into road riding. Mountain biking has been my thing. But I must say, I have really enjoyed riding this bike. It climbs well and responds nicely. Great for building up your stamina. As a matter of fact, with this bike, I'm spending more and more time on the road!
This is my first road bike. I got it at the sale price (which was half what it costs at my canadian LBS) and so had enough money left for accessories. I've had it for over a month now and ride about 50-100km each weekend. It's quiet, light and I'm satisfied with its performance. Also, the bright white frame color is actually much more appealing than it appears on the photos on the website. I fully recommend it to any beginners out there.
Best Uses
This is an excellent bike and is a pleasure to ride. Everything was done right, and the order was handled very professionally.
Best Uses
Considering the price I paid for the 2011 model, it's hard to go wrong with the Oxygen 30. Components are OK, and will definitely get the job done. How long they last remains to be seen. Shifters and drivetrain were pretty dialed in by the wrench at Jenson. My only gripes -
- Wheels were not true upon delivery
- Bar wrap job was pretty bad
- Cassette is warped
Additionally, the saddle does not agree with my posterior; just a personal thing for me. These are *minor* cons to me in the grand scheme, and I'm happy with the purchase.
Best Uses
Used product for exercise
One spoke fell out and had to take to local bike shop to repair
Rear wheel had to be trued ( spokes loose)
Tubes probably defective and had to replace both
Tires were different brand and not as listed
Best Uses
It was a great value. But out of the box the wheels were so out of true they rubbed on the brakes on the front and back wheels.
Best Uses
I've put abut 250 miles on it already. Overall, the bike is great and for the money, it is very well equipped.
Out of the box, the bike took about 20 minutes to unpack and assemble - you should be comfortable putting a bike together and have a torque wrench.
The one thing I would recommend is getting high quality brake shoes for the brakes. I've had Tektro brakes on my single speed as well as a couple mountain bikes and while the brakes are good, the brake pads are junk and lead you to believe the brake set isn't as good as it actually is.
The bike is very stable on descents in excess of 35 MPH, climbs well and is comfortable on long rides - especially if you already have a saddle you like.
I would definitely recommend the bike to others for the value you get from JensonuSA.
Best Uses
Very comfortable right out of the box. Setup was quick and straightforward. The bike handles well and feels very good. The bike needed minimal adjustments out of the box.

A family of liqueurs made by the maceration and/or distillation of bitter and/or sweet oranges or tangerines. Orange liqueurs have a strong tradition in Europe, and in France in particular, although they are now made around the world. Some of the best-known orange liqueurs are Cointreau, Grand Marnier, Curaçao, Mandarine Napoleon and triple sec. Orange liqueurs may be flavoured with additional spices or botanicals. They are essential in cocktails such as the Sidecar and the Yellow Daisy.
Each type of orange liqueur is made to a distinct recipe, so each will taste quite different. Be wary of substituting one orange liqueur for another, especially if a recipe calls for a specific liqueur. Price and quality will also vary. Orange liqueurs are widely available.
Orange liqueurs tend to have a long shelf-life, although flavour may begin to suffer with very long-term storage (more than one year). Store away from direct light.
Orange liqueurs are used in cooking, as in the classic Seventies dish, crêpes Suzette. They can also be used in a variety of cakes, cheesecakes, mousses and the like.

Conservation scientists recently listed the world's most 100 endangered species, including the three-toed pygmy sloth.
They could just as easily have included another endangered business species, the American athletic shoe manufacturer. Just one of those left, and it has a large presence in our region and state: New Balance.
While many here are familiar with the company's popular outlet store on Route 26 in Oxford, the company also operates factories employing about 900 people in Norway, Norridgewock and Skowhegan.
While clearly viable, the company's continued viability depends upon tariffs levied on Southeast Asian imports.
Of particular concern at the moment is the Trans-Pacific Partnership, a multi-nation agreement under negotiation.
One proposal calls for removing the tariffs on foreign-made athletic shoes, a move that New Balance says could doom its 1,400 workers in the U.S.
U.S. Trade Representative Ambassador Ron Kirk is touring the New Balance Norridgewock factory today and the company hopes to impress upon him the importance of those jobs in rural Maine.
But if you think the issue is simple — jobs here vs those in Vietnam — you would be mistaken.
New Balance is in a much tougher fight than that.
While it has enlisted the support of Maine Congressman Mike Michaud, across the country some U.S. shoewear giants have the ear of Congressman Earl Blumenauer.
The Portland, Ore., Democrat has three of the biggest athletic shoe companies in his district, Nike, Adidas and Columbia Sports.
While you might think they would be on the same save-the-jobs page as New Balance, they are not. They operate no factories in the U.S.
Nike obtains 29 percent of its footwear from Vietnam, according to the Portland Business Journal. Adidas, headquartered in Portland, gets 29 percent of its footwear from Vietnam and Columbia receives 92 percent of its shoes from China and Vietnam.
They all object to the $250 million they must pay to import those shoes from the eight nations in the Trans-Pacific Partnership talks.
They call that a "tax" they must then pass along to U.S. consumers.
The curious thing here is that the U.S. shoe industry really does employ a significant number of Americans. About 300,000 people work in design, marketing and retail sales.
But only 12,000 people in the U.S. are still engaged in making shoes.
In April, Congressman Blumenauer circulated a letter calling the athletic shoe tariff a tax on consumers and "discriminatory" to manufacturers.
"If there's an import duty of 10 or 20 percent, that makes all those shoes more expensive. The consumer ends up paying and it's not entirely clear what the benefit is," according to Blumenauer.
He would, of course, understand that benefit very quickly if he were running for re-election in Maine's 2nd Congressional district — jobs.
We have spent the past 30 years watching one basic industry after another move overseas. The legacy is shuttered factories in the U.S. and service-sector jobs.
Meanwhile other countries, like Germany, have wisely protected and invested in basic manufacturing.
We urge Ambassador Kirk to stand with American workers and protect the last of these endangered jobs.

Whipped cream flew through the Evans Middle School gym Tuesday afternoon, smacking teachers in the face — and helping two others recover after their home was engulfed in flames two weeks ago.
Evans school resource officer, Darren Batterson, and his girlfriend, teacher associate Lisa Kitterman, lost their three-story home south of Ottumwa on Jan. 28 after lightning struck the top floor, causing the house to burst into flames.
During the middle school's lunch hour Tuesday, students took aim and chucked more than 400 pies at some of their favorite teachers in order to help Batterson and Kitterman.
Seventh-grade reading teacher Staci Pester said her advisory class decided to raise money for the couple after learning that their house had burned down.
They brainstormed ideas, got approval from administration and emailed teachers if they would "donate their face for money," Pester said.
"We tossed around a bunch of ideas," said seventh-grader Yesenia Millhouse, who is in Pester's advisory class. "We came up with an art auction, bake sale, just bringing in money and a food drive."
But in the end, it was the pie-throwing extravaganza that stuck.
"I felt really bad for [Batterson]," said Millhouse's classmate, Payton Ingle.
After scarfing down their lunch, students stood on tables and scrounged for a couple dollars in their pockets to "pie" their favorite teachers.
All 150 tubs of whipped cream were donated by North and South Hy-Vee and Walmart, Pester said.
Each participating student contributed $2 per pie, and by the time the last dollop of whipped cream had been cleared off the gym floor, the sixth grade had raised $356, the seventh grade had raised $292, and the eighth grade had raised $174.
"He was my school resource officer when I went to Evans, so I've known him for years and years," Pester said. "He knows pretty much every kid in every grade. They all love him."
In total, 21 staff members got "pied" on Tuesday. Sixth-grade gym teacher Ronald Howard brought in $77, seventh grade English teacher Riley O'Brien brought in $117 and eighth-grade gym teacher Ryan Morgan brought in $46.
Kitterman said seeing all the students come together to support her and Batterson "makes you want to cry.
"They've been so helpful and very caring," she said. "They'll come up and hug you, make sure you're OK. Then that makes me cry, too. These kids are very thoughtful."
Kitterman's neighbors called her and Batterson late that night and told them the news.
"Lightning hit my daughter's room on the very top floor," she said.
Thankfully, no one was in the home at the time.
"It was burnt to the foundation," Kitterman said. "We've been staying with my mom and dad for now."
Kitterman has worked at Evans for three years, and Batterson has worked as a school resource officer at the middle school since 2000.
"It's just great what they did," Batterson said. "I couldn't believe it."
He said the school, students and students' parents have all been helpful and supportive in the weeks since they lost their home.
Thirty-five firefighters beat back the flames for nearly seven hours and managed to save a separate two-car garage, an LP gas tank and a small shed north of the house.
"We were able to cool the LP gas tank to keep it from being involved," Wapello County Rural Fire Chief Bryan Ziegler previously told the Courier. "If the garage had caught on fire, there's a potential for the LP tank to burn, and that could have resulted in an explosion. It doesn't mean it would have, but it could have."
According to the assessed value, Ziegler estimated damages totaled more than $128,000, including the contents of the house.

What honour could be more satisfying than an appearance on Desert Island Discs? To be invited proves that you are a person of significance. And it panders to the strange hankering that has lurked in the British subconscious at least since the time of Daniel Defoe to get away from urban civilisation and to live alone in a tropical paradise. Plus it invites you to choose and hear your eight favourite tracks.
Not many of us would be as egotistic as the great diva Elisabeth Schwarzkopf, who back in 1958 selected seven of her own recordings. Nor would we necessarily expect the level of politeness shown to Diana Mosley who, after she had denied that six million Jews died in the Holocaust, was asked: "Tell us about your fifth record, Lady Mosley." But we would hope for a more charming welcome than Gordon Brown's when he was told by Sue Lawley: "People want to know whether you're gay or whether there's some flaw in your personality."
Hundreds upon hundreds of establishment figures have had their moments of self-revelation on this programme, which has been around in its unchanging format for longer than most of us have been alive. Now the BBC is allowing public access to the Desert Island Discs archive. Listen and enjoy.

5. Price / Where to buy
Main Features of the Kitchen Aid 5 Speed KSB560 Blender:
* All in one assembly
This means that the blades do not come apart from the pitcher. Many people love this feature – finding it very easy to clean and no need to worry about losing small parts. The design of the pitcher is made so that it is very easy to clean.
As one happy owner said – "The one piece jar and blade assembly with it's unique drain ports save hours of time previously spent taking blender jars, blades, couplers, seals and collars apart for washing and then finding all the pieces intact to reassemble for the next blending task."
Deal AlertThe Price at this moment is 12% lower and you will save $15.89 if you buy today
* Quiet
While it does make noise – it is a blender – it is quieter than most blenders.
* Ice crushing button
The ice crushing button works really well – it causes all the ice cubes to move around so that every one of them gets crushed.
When tested on America's Test Kitchen they found that: ice was quickly pulverized into snow, smoothies were smooth and lump-free, and hummus was perfect.
Technical Features of this KitchenAid Blender

The motor is quiet, yet powerful enough to handle my most demanding smoothie tasks. It does a great job of …(read more here: KitchenAid 5-Speed Blender Review)"
"I was so tempted to get a vitamix but just couldn't justify $400 for smoothies, green drinks and pureeing soups. I was also familiar with how loud vitamixes were from powdering herbs and roots at herb school. I wanted something quieter if possible. This was reviewed favorably by cooks illustrated for not only regular blender and ice crushing tasks but also for being quiet. So far it has worked beautifully…(read more here: KitchenAid 5 Speed Blender Review)"
Amazon Rating: 3.9
Who is the KitchenAid 5 Speed Blender best for?

This blender if great for making smoothies, crushing ice and all around blending. This blender handles making green smoothies with no troubles – and with a much smaller price tag than the Blendtec or Vitamix.

As one owner told me – "I've been using my Kitchenaid 5-speed, which won the [Popular Mechanix] competition, everyday for green smoothies and it does a great job at a fraction of the cost.

I have found that Amazon currently has great discounts and free shipping for these top rated blenders. Choose which color you want and place your order today! While you are there you can check out the great smoothie recipe books they have.

Alla Bussola (3 Star Hotels) Anacapri
Trav. La Vigna, 14 - Anacapri Tel. +39 081 8382010 , Fax +39 081 8382966 , Mob. +39 328 9721332
That little Mediterranean villa in Anacapri...
Three reasons why you'll love it here
- A peaceful island home, in Anacapri
- The view of the Bay of Naples, from your room
- Soaking up the Mediterranean sun, on the terrace
Anacapri's Alla Bussola is no ordinary 3 star. Close to the town's picturesque historic center, this small, family-run hotel represents a marvelous mixture of Mediterranean, neoclassical and traditional island architecture.
Italian island villa
A charming composition of graceful arches, pretty pergolas, shady porticoes and decorative pieces in Pompeian red and hand painted majolica greets holidaymakers as they arrive at Hotel Alla Bussola.
From the hotel's light-filled bedrooms, almost all of which have a private terrace, guests are offered a spectacular view of the Bay of Naples. An even more panoramic view awaits those making their way up to the roof top solarium.
Want to go home with an authentic Mediterranean tan? A few hours on Alla Bussola's panoramic roof top solarium terrace should do the trick!
Those in-the-know choose Anacapri
A wonderfully peaceful retreat, Alla Bussola lies within steps of the historic center of Anacapri, considered by many to be the most authentic and unspoiled corner of the Island of Capri.
Capri connoisseurs often choose to stay in quiet and exclusive Anacapri knowing that, should they feel the need to dip into the island's glitzy social whirl, the celebrity-packed Piazzetta is only a short bus or taxi ride away.

What travellers said about this hotel
An excellent low-cost hotel for such a notoriously experience place like Capri.
Jen L. and 27 others agree with this
We would not have enjoyed our trip nearly as much if it wasn't for the person at the front desk.....she drew us a precise map of what to see and how to get there.. and best of all she spoke English
Barbara Z. and 23 others agree with this
The bedrooms are sufficiently large and very clean.
Ciro E. and 30 others agree with this
The hotel is very good. The staff were very frendly and helpfull. Nothing to say except that the breakfast could be a little more rich. Apart from that, a must return place indeed.
Pedro M. and 7 others agree with this
The two owners are really nice and helpful, and the location in Anacapri is perfect. Not in the center, I grant that, but in a calm neighbourhood and very typical, far from the agitated Capri.
ROUX O. and 8 others agree with this
My family had a great time staying at the Hotel Bussola, We would stay there again!
Heidi C. and 26 others agree with this
We enjoyed sitting on the communal terrace, admiring the sunset.

NORMAN — Members of the community can begin voting in the Reader's Choice Awards/Best of the Best for their favorite Norman restaurants, doctors, businesses, services and more by filling out a ballot located on Page B10 in today's Transcript.
"Once again, we are delighted this year to provide readers the opportunity to pick the Best of the Best of Norman," said Terry Connor, publisher of The Norman Transcript.
This year's categories include dining, shopping, entertainment, health/wellness, education and services. The Transcript will publish ballots several times this month.
On the ballot, readers name individuals and businesses in more than 300 subcategories. Readers must return the original ballots by Jan. 18.
Debbie Knoll, director of advertising at The Transcript, said an outside group tallies results and determines winners based on the most votes in a category.
There will be some changes in the voting. Connor said in the past, voters would vote once and the top three businesses would be selected in each subcategory. This year, readers will vote first with the printed ballot, then can vote online between the top three.

Hi everyone, my name is Bridgette. I'm a petite, energetic 4-year-old German shepherd Mix (some call me a pocket or mini-shepherd).
I've been living at the kennel for a long time now, patiently waiting for my forever family to find me. The Mid-Atlantic German Shepherd Rescue (MAGSR) has been taking good care of me, but I'm longing for a home and family of my own to love and give lots of kisses. I'm a smart girl with a strong personality, so I need a home with an experienced family who will commit to going to training with me.
I like going on long walks, especially if we pass by the creek or baby pool along the way. Then, I jump in, splash around, and chomp at the water. Another fun thing I do on my walks is roll around on the ground until my collar is filled with grass, or leaves, or straw. I hear people say it looks like I'm wearing a lei, just like a Hawaiian princess. I look especially pretty in the fall when the leaves are so many different colors.
My favorite thing of all is playing ball—any kind of ball. 'Fetch' is fun, especially when the ball goes high in the air so I can jump up to catch it. I really like jumping; sometimes I jump as high as I can even when there is no ball to catch. Maybe that is why the volunteers call me their Little Circus Monkey.
I like the Jolly Balls we have in our play areas best of all. I always look for the biggest one, pick it up by the handle, and run around the yard shaking it until I get tired. Then I roll it down the hill to my favorite spot under the big tree and lay down for a rest. Sometimes a volunteer will play "Find It" with me before I get to play with the balls. Treats sure do taste better when I have to sniff them out myself!
I'm very athletic and need a lot of physical exercise. I've heard the volunteers say I would excel at competitive sport games like Flyball and Treibball. I would like someone to teach me to play because I know both games involve playing with balls, and you know I love balls!
Please see magsr.org to find out more about Bridgette and submit an adoption application. MAGSR is dedicated to rehabilitating and providing a second chance to German shepherds and shepherd mixes that have been abandoned, abused, lost, strayed, or surrendered.

Service Battery Charging System
I've got a 2007 Yukon Denali and recently got this message,Service Battery Charging System.My battery is brand new,replaced by the dealer 3 months ago.It is only reading 10 volts when it normally reads 14.Any suggestions.
I would have the alternator tested. On the newer trucks the alternator regulation is controlled by the computer, so it can be damaged if removed and "bench tested". They have to be tested on the truck.

RALEIGH — Duke didnt play bad in its 84-76 loss at N.C. State. The Wolfpack simply played better.
They played a heck of a game, Duke head coach Mike Krzyzewski said of the Wolfpack. We fought like crazy throughout the game and gave ourselves a chance to win. State played outstanding basketball.
Lorenzo Brown and Richard Howell drew extra praise from Krzyzewski, as he said both were among the best in the country at their positions. Both were able to win their individual matchups with Quinn Cook and Mason Plumlee, two of Dukes top performers this year. Heres a closer look at how each individual matchup played out.
Quinn Cook (6-1, 175) vs. Lorenzo Brown (6-5, 186)
N.C. State scored 22 fast-break points, and that, in Krzyzewskis mind, was the difference in the game.
Brown is as good as there is in the country in transition, he said. Their transition is what won the game for them, and hes the reason for it. Hes terrific.
Brown finished with 12 points (shooting 3-for-13 from the field) and 13 assists. Cook did a fine job on him when the Wolfpack set up their halfcourt offense, and Brown, in turn, neutralized Cook on the other end of the floor. Cook finished with 17 points and seven assists, but Browns impact in transition was the separating factor.
Advantage: N.C. State
Seth Curry (6-2, 185) vs. Rodney Purvis (6-3, 195)
Curry finished with 22 points in 32 minutes and started heating up in the second half. He shot 5-of-7 from the field, including a 3-for-5 mark from 3-point range, for 13 second-half points before slipping on a wet spot and leaving the game at the 3:14 mark with a left ankle injury. The Wolfpack rotated Purvis and T.J. Warren on Curry, and Gottfried was pleased with the result.
Those two guys are young players, they did a pretty good job. They made Seth make tough shots. He made some, but theyre learning, the young guys are learning how to blend in with the older guys.
Purvis didnt attempt many shots he went 3-for-6 from the field for seven points and Curry nearly brought Duke back when all the other perimeter shooters went cold.
Advantage: Duke
Rasheed Sulaimon (6-4, 185) vs. Scott Wood (6-6, 169)
Wood set the tone early, swooshing his first 3-pointer to open the scoring. He hit two more times from deep, and completed a four-point play as Tyler Thornton fouled him. Before Wood shot, the referee called a double technical, as Wood said something to Thornton that caused the Duke guard to respond with an elbow to his chest.
Sulaimon, meanwhile, is in a shooting slump. He was 0-for-10 against the Wolfpack from the field and is now 9-for-40 (22.5 percent) over Dukes past five games.
Advantage: N.C. State
C.J. Leslie (6-9, 200) vs. Josh Hairston (6-7, 240)
As expected, Hairston struggled to contain Leslie offensively, and Plumlee switched onto him for the last seven minutes of the game. Leslie lived up to his billing of ACC Preseason Player of the Year, finishing with a game-high 25 points and six rebounds.
Offensively, Duke got 18 points, on 9-of-14 shooting, and nine rebounds from Josh Hairston and Amile Jefferson, the two players replacing the injured Ryan Kelly. Both of those numbers are above his season averages, but, as Jefferson pointed out, Kellys greatest impact is on defense. Duke sorely missed him there.
Advantage: N.C. State
Mason Plumlee (6-10, 235) vs. Richard Howell (6-8, 257)
Plumlee played well 15 points on 7-of-10 shooting and 11 rebounds. Howell simply played better, especially in the second half. He finished with 16 points and 18 rebounds, which tied his career-high in conference play.
Howell is just a beast, Krzyzewski said. Hes a kid that every team would want and start and would be so easy to play with. He doesnt need the ball long, he plays with amazing maturity, and he rebounds the heck out of the ball.
When asked why Howell was such a great rebounder, Krzyzewski went big-picture with his answer.
God, he said as the press corps laughed. God does that.
Advantage: N.C. State
