Last week was my birthday. One of my dearest friends, Wendy, called offering to take me to lunch and spend the afternoon consignment shopping in Simsbury. I'd never been, but had heard wonderful things about Main Moon, a small Chinese restaurant on Hopmeadow Street in Simsbury. Everyone should try something new on their birthday.
We approached the door, thinking it was a "sit down" style eatery. We popped our heads in the creaky door and noticed only a few tables, one patron and a busy couple working behind the counter. Before we turned to head back out the door, we heard: "Best Chinese food in Connecticut!"
An older gentleman at one of the few shabby tables smiled at us above his steaming plate of General Tso's Chicken.
It was too late to turn back. Although the environment wasn't exactly what I had expected, we couldn't walk away and disappoint Main Moon's most loyal customer. After all, we had intended on trying it, had read and heard wonderful things about it. There was no reason not to squash our original expectations of being waited on, walk our lazy bones to the counter, read and order from the paper menu.
As we glanced over the menu, our new friend continued to rave about how the people of Simsbury love Main Moon, the quality of their food and the restaurateur's work ethic.
The conversation bounced back and forth between topics. Laughter and smiles managed to work their way into the introductions. Wendy and I knew we made the right decision by coming to Main Moon, at least for the experience of meeting our new friend.
We sat down with our bottled soda and paper napkins to wait while our lunch was prepared behind the counter. The room was bright with natural light. A mounted flat screen television with volume and closed-captioned soap operas (and aging actors I remembered from college) reflected on the screen. As we waited, Wendy and I noticed a constant and heavy stream of take-out orders. Customers were familiar with menu items, the owners and the routine.
Our new friend got up from his table and walked over to ours. His name was George, a very friendly Simsbury resident and Main Moon's best PR tool. He gushed about the family that now owns the restaurant and raved about their kindness. When George realized it was my birthday, he insisted on paying for our lunch. He skipped over to the counter and took care of our bill. His intentions and generosity were so pure, genuinely wanting to make our afternoon special. He had a twinkle in his eye, a spring in his step. His smile and his aura were infectious. He grabbed his keys, put on his cap and sunglasses, and was on his way.
"Happy Birthday and enjoy your lunch, ladies!"
We sat there in awe, almost embarrassed that our original impression of seeing empty seats, a solitary customer confessing his personal testimonial and a soap-opera-blaring television, was capable of swaying our lunch eatery decision.
Our lunch arrived steaming and fresh. After seeing the constant opening and closing door of customers, we knew why. The vegetables were crunchy, not overcooked. The chicken was lean and seasoned to perfection. Everything was delicious! Since George had paid for our lunch, the owner knew it was my birthday. She brought out a fresh plate of crab rangoon, on the house, as a gift. This extra attention to detail proved the service at Main Moon was birthday, and everyday, worthy.
It was like a tornado of goodness had randomly placed chunks of kindness in our paths. After this experience, how could we have not chosen Main Moon? On my birthday, I'm convinced, any other establishment would have only suffered from comparison.

A medical imaging company has removed a portable MRI machine housed in a trailer in a Kendall office strip center, after Miami-Dade County officials determined that the machine and the adjoining building contained unpermitted and potentially dangerous electrical installations, and that the location wasn't zoned for the machine.
The machine – which had been in operation for nine years – was removed from its location in a semi-trailer at Virtual Imaging on July 21. The trailer was parked under a blue canopy beside a Virtual Imaging center at 7101 SW 99th Ave. The same company owns several similar imaging centers throughout the county.
The indoor imaging center in Kendall remains operational while the owners work to bring them into compliance with building regulations.
Charles Danger, the building official of Miami-Dade County, said that Virtual Imaging had not been complying with any orders given to them – even after a meeting was held in May and a representative of the company said they would be fixing the electrical problems "very soon." Finally, on July 11, the county sent Virtual Imaging a notice stating that the power of the entire facility, including the portable MRI, would be disconnected by FPL in five business days.
"They were begging for more time and we told them no," he said. "So they have five working days to come in and try to submit what they need to submit for us to be able to work with them because I think they have gone a little too long."
The county's notice to Virtual Imaging stated that the property was determined to be a "hazard to life safety."
"We are concerned because this is not just a light and a switch," Danger said. "This is major equipment."
During the five-day grace period, Juan Puig, the president of Virtual Imaging, entered into an agreement with the building department, which averted the order to disconnect power to the location.
The agreement, signed July 22, mandated that Virtual Imaging get rid of the portable MRI machine and obtain all permits necessary in order to legalize the inside of the facility and parking lot area. The facility was also mandated to pay all outstanding tickets and provide a certification letter that all electrical work is performed legally.
According to the settlement, Puig must have all plans for legalization of unpermitted work and all required permits obtained by Oct. 15. He has until Jan. 13 to finalize all work and inspections.
Danger said the building department became involved in 2011 after a complaint was made by a neighbor. The trailer was placed on the edge of the office strip, where it abuts a residential neighborhood.
But when an inspector was sent to review Virtual Imaging, he "didn't mention the MRI machine on the outside, although in the pictures that he took you can see on the corner of the building, the MRI machine."
"The inspector that went in 2011 just went over there, looked over the building, didn't see anything, and he just moved on," Danger said. "He didn't do his job and then the neighbor called again."
After that incident, the department went back for another inspection and cited the MRI machine, issued violations, and was able to get inside the building. Danger said what Virtual Imaging was doing was "not acceptable."
Although the portable MRI machine was operating illegally and not allowed to be parked at the facility due to zoning regulations, the building department said, Virtual Imaging could have tried to legalize the use of the trailer through a zoning hearing – but approval from the neighbor who made the complaint would have been required and the unsafe electrical installations would have had to be corrected. Danger said getting this approved would've been "very difficult."
Virtual Imaging paid $1,000 for the cost of preparing the agreement and paid six citations, each costing $510. The building department also said Virtual Imaging agreed to pay a lien of about $8,000 once compliance has been met, and will be paying for the building permits needed, which could cost up to a few thousand dollars.
Puig was not available for comment, but a representative of Virtual Imaging said that the company's troubles with the county began after a neighbor, Armando Soler, got upset when plans Puig and Soler had made to buy his residence didn't go as intended.
Soler's residence is next to Virtual Imaging and Puig had thought of purchasing the residence to eventually expand his company. The representative, who identified himself only as "Mr. González," said that Soler wanted more money than the appraisal came back for and Soler wasn't interested in any of Puig's other offers.
Though Soler had talked to Puig about selling his residence to him, he said his complaint to the county had nothing to do with the deal being called off. He said he complained because of a loud "humming sound" emanating from the trailer.
Soler, who has lived in the residence since 1980 and is retired, said the MRI trailer was never shut off, not even during nights or weekends. The noise was affecting his quality of life and disturbing his peace.
"I had no idea any of these other violations were going to surface," Soler said.
Danger said he was sorry the county hadn't addressed the safety issues sooner.
"Something like this should have not taken place since 2011," Danger said. "And, I can give you a bunch of excuses. We are overloaded here. We get 66,000 calls a year of complaints and only have 50 officers, but I'm not going to give you an excuse. We should have done it before, and we didn't. But at least we're doing it now."

Georgia coach Mark Richt answered reporters' questions for a half-hour on Thursday afternoon. The Bulldogs are in the midst of their off-season conditioning program and preparing for the start of spring practice on March 19. Following is raw transcription covering most of what was discussed . . .
Q: There has been talk of rising sophomore Ray Drew moving from outside linebacker to defensive end in the spring. Is that true, and are there some other position changes afoot?
A: The thing about our defense is it's very versatile. A guy who at one time might be standing up as a linebacker, the next play he's got his hand on the ground rushing the passer. So the flexibility has been there since Todd came. The bottom line is we're going to play everybody in any given game or in any given personnel grouping depending on what we're trying to defend. The versatility of our defense allows that.
"People have also been talking about Malcolm Mitchell. Could he end up playing both ways? Quite frankly, we're going to experiment with that a little bit. We're going to see how much he can handle learning some cornerback. So that's something. People have been talking about Richard Samuel, could he end up playing some fullback reps? There's a chance of that, too. Again, we have got to make sure we take the entire talent base of our football team and get the best players out there in whatever situations we need them in. If that means a guy playing both ways or two positions on defense or , if that means we have to put the entire starting lineup on offense and defense playing special teams, I don't care what it is, we have to do whatever we have to do to get the best players on the field. We've got to take advantage of everybody's abilities."
Q: What are the kicking and punting competitions going to look like in the spring?
A: "First of all, I doubt either of those jobs get finalized before we get to the fall. We've got guys that we signed we think have the ability to win those jobs in Marshall Morgan and Collin Barber. Those guys were signed for a reason. We also have Jamie Lindley who has been a kicker but can also punt and has been working on his punting. Adam Erickson is here working. Those guys are the top candidates who will be pushing them. Other guys will get an opportunity as well."
Q: How do you feel about your secondary with the dismissals of defensive backs Nick Marshall and Chris Sanders and the two-game suspension of Sanders Commings?
A: Well, it's a lot thinner for sure, right this minute. It affects special teams play as well. Our cornerback position took a hit and our special teams took a hit. Do we have enough of a talent base on this team to still play at the level we expect to play? I still believe we do. We may have to stretch guys a little bit here and there from a learning standpoint and from getting more reps. But most every great player who's not a quarterback or certain other positions such as offensive line or extra piont in field goal, most of the other guys are going to play some special teams at one time or another. So we've got to get all hands on deck. We're going to make sure everybody understands how crucial they are and how special teams are just as important as playing first down on defense or offense."
Q: Speaking of Commings, you went ahead and handed him a two-game suspension despite the fact he has yet to appear in court on the domestic violence charges. How did you arrive at that decision and why did you go ahead and make it?
A: "We don't like anything like that. We're not going to have that kind of behavior. We don't condone it. There are always circumstances that some people know or don't know. I wasn't there so, certainly, I don't know exactly for sure what happened. But I got enough information to feel comfortable that he didn't behave as well as he should and he's going to have to face the consequences for that. Of course, playing time seems to be what everybody cares about the most. . . . But there's a greater price that's being paid than just that. As always, there's an educational piece to this thing. And when things are done properly with regard to the discipline and the education, we keep loving these guys, too. So, right now he's living through the consequences of his actions and that's just the way it happens here at Georgia."
Q: As for the three players you dismissed, are you leaving the door open for them to possibly return to Georgia?
A: "All I can tell you right now is I want these guys, wherever they've landed, to do great where they're at and still be able to chase their dream of playing major college football and getting a degree and playing pro ball or whatever their goals may be. That's what I hope for any of our guys if they ever end up being dismissed from our football team. As far as [coming back], I'm not going to sit here and say 100 percent yes or 100 percent no. Right now they're on this journey in which they've got to take care of business. So maybe later on we can talk about the possibility of that. But I'm not really in a position to say."
Q: How do you feel as far as an eight or nine-game SEC schedule and do you favor the 6-and-2 or 6-1-1 models as far as the 2012 slate goes?
A: "Just speaking for myself, I know our league is a very difficult league. Eight league games are plenty to me to prove you're a good football team. And when you always play Georgia Tech to go along with that, that's another one you've got to deal with that takes everything you've got. So if you go to nine league games and you continue to have Georgia Tech on there, which I'm sure we will; then, on top of that, if you win your division you have to play in the SEC Championship Game; and then if there ever is a day when they play a plus-one, then you have to win that game and play another game; for me, personally, I think eight is enough to prove that you're a good football team and you deserve to move on.
"As for the format, I know our rival game with Auburn is very important to us. It'd be kind of hard to not have that game, in my opinion, for a lot of reasons. It's just like people thinking about Texas and Texas A&M not playing. It's just sad when you lose rival games. So I don't know anybody who'd be excited about losing one of those rival games."
Q: Any concerns about your new contract not being complete at this point?
A: "It's going to happen in due time. I don't have any anxiety at all. There's some different language in there. When you re-write a contract there's just things that everybody's got to feel comfortable with. So we're just ironing out all those little things. It's more just crossing your t's and dotting your i's type of stuff. Greg and I have been together on our discussions and everything's going extremely well. I don't have any issues at all.
"Sometimes there's people going to China or going wherever. Everybody's life is busy. We didn't really get going much, to be honest with you, until after signing day. So it wasn't like this has been worked on since December or something like that."
Q: Will it be strange for you playing Auburn with Brian VanGorder and Willie Martinez now on its coaching staff?
A: "My gosh, I don't know if it could get much more emotional for our team or our coaching staffs. Every time we play those guys it's huge to us. We're always hoping whenever we play that game it's very meaningful for both teams as far as division championships and that kind of thing. When you know guys real well and you know them and you love them, it probably adds something to it on a personal level.
"When I first got to Georgia and we played Florida State in a bowl game, you get that different sensation as you prepare. But as soon as you get competing, you just want to win the game just like any other game. You just want to win it. The thing about that bowl game was Coach [Bobby] Bowden was a lot more to me than just my boss. Y'all know about our relationship. It was a whole month or whatever it was to prepare. This, of course, will be a normal cycle of being in a grind and preparing. I don't know if there will be much time to reflect on all that other stuff."
Q: What's it mean to have so much of your defensive talent returning for 2012?
A: "Having a majority of our starters coming back and a majority of our defensive players coming back is a big deal. A lot of them are going to be seniors and leaders and there are a lot of guys that have been proven play-makers. So that's a very good thing for us. First of all, we don't want to rest on any accomplishments of the past. But I don't think our coaches will allow it and I don't think our leaders will allow that.
"The one thing they all want to do a better job of is finish. We could've finished better in our last two ballgames as a team, not just defensively. Our defense knows, at the moment of truth, when we've got to get a stop, we've got to get a stop. Same thing offensively; when we've got to score, we've got to score. Defensive statistics are good and all that kind of thing, but the bottom line is we all know, whether it's offense or defense or special teams, some time in the course of a game, somebody's got to rise up and make a play. So I think everybody feels the need to be ready to rise to the occasion."
Q: We never got to ask you about the signing day drama surrounding Josh Harvey-Clemons and the letter-of-intent delay. How stressful was that?
A: "The one thing we knew talking to Josh was, in his heart, he wanted to be a Bulldog. There was no doubt about that. Even though it got delayed there a little bit, he never wavered in his thought process. So that was the thing we were talking to him about. The next morning everything got settled and it was fine. But I'm a big fan of Josh and his entire family. I'm a big Woodrow Clemons fan as well."
Q: Any truth to reports y'all are considering playing Harvey-Clemons at safety?
A: "I don't think that. We see him more as a linebacker who we hope can stay in the game in the base looks and the nickel looks. Sometimes you'll put a nickel corner at the Sam linebacker position or you'll put a safety into that position in certain situations. If you've got a guy with his kind of ability, you may not have to take him off the field. That's where we want to allow him to grow. He's also got some offensive skills [as a wide receiver] and he may be just the right guy to throw the ball to in the red zone. So whether he can handle all that as a true freshman, I don't know. But before his career is over we'll definitely give him an opportunity to do some things offensively as well."
Q: How are early enrollees Faton Bauta, Mark Beard and Keith Marshall adjusting to college life?
A: "We just got through going over academics and we covered every player as we always do, every player, every class every grade. Talking about the young guys, one of my questions was just to see what kind of attitude and effort and work ethic they're bringing to the academic realm and our academic people were really pleased with all three of the new guys. They're just coming in and being about their business and doing really well. With their ability and their work ethic academically, those three guys are going to do very well."
Q: It appears offensive line is the biggest area of concern heading into spring practice. What's your assessment?
A: "When you're replacing three starters you're always going to have question marks. The question is do you have the talent base on the team to get the job done. And you know what, I'm really encouraged. I'm not going to say we're going to line up and whip tail on every single down because that's tough to do in our league. But I'm encouraged because I see these guys work hard, I see them fighting through the off-season conditioning stuff that we're doing. I see some athleticism. I see some guys who I think can learn and not have assignment busts and things like that.
"If you can get a group of linemen that have got a little toughness about them, have a little athleticism and know what they're doing and are coordinated and don't make a lot of mistakes, they'll do all right. You hear people say get your hat on the guy. If you're right on you're assignment and you fight, you've got a chance to move the ball. You've got a chance to create space in the running game and have time to throw it. So think we've got that. We're trying to determined how many guys will be game ready by the time we get going. There may be as many as eight or nine, in my mind. If they keep progressing, they can line up and play SEC football. That counts the guys we signed as well."
Q: You were going to reassess special teams play in the offseason. Any plays to the change the coaching set up as far as the division of responsibilities?
A: "We're not changing who's doing what. We're just making sure we're real comfortable with what we're doing and we're comfortable with the personnel we put on these teams and so that we take the time that it takes to be good at it."
Q: Is it true you're considering the addition of a "speed specialist" for your strength and conditioning staff?
A: "I think it's good to have a lot of versatility within your strength team, because it's more than just getting strong. It's conditioning. It's flexibility. It's speed and quickness. It's the entirety of your off-season program. What are the things you want to get accomplished? You definitely want to get stronger; you want to get more flexible; you want to get faster; you want to have great agility; and you want to have stamina. And so, you want to have that kind of diversity on your staff.
"And if you work the muscle well and don't feed it you have problems. That's why we made the move with Jenn Ketterly last year in nutrition. We think we have really improved that part of the equation. The other part is trying to find time for these guys to get rest and part of that responsibility is theirs, to get to bed. The other part is to manage their day the best that we possibility can with all the academic and athletic and traning room and community service responsibilities. Whatever these guys do, we've got to help them manage their days and rest time."

Keep drinking the kool aid fellow dawg fans. We will never win a national champinship with him here. Should have cut him lose and gotten Kirby. Watch again how many players leave the state to go elsewhere mainly Alabama. Kirby and Saban is kicking Richt's butt in the state.It's a sinking ship in Athens.

Not so sure about this statement. He committed to UF the weekend before NSD. Here's a quote from the Gainesville Sun's Zach Alboverdi:
"Harvey-Clemons and his family drove to Gainesville the weekend before National Signing Day and committed to UF. I was told that by numerous sources and it's now been reported by multiple media outlets. What am I supposed to predict with information like that? He was all set to sign with the Gators and caught everyone off guard when he switched to Georgia. His family members were stunned and his grandfather refused to sign his letter of intent."

CT, you have a great title and then the article misses the main two main questions..

A Father, the answer is because A Murray is the BEST QB in the SEC and one of the BEST in the nation. Ask analysts and coaches alike, they will tell you the same. Those of you who think otherwise can't see the forest for the trees. Give A Murray an offensive line and a consistent running game he would be all world. Unfortunately, he never has had a good offensive line or a consistent running game. Watch out when he does.

A Father…. dumb questions.
Finebaum…. dumb comment. For your information I had a conversation with one of the most successsful coaches in the history of the state of Georgia this week that contradicts your little comment. He is a fan of Saban's coaching abilities however, he has spent a good bit of time talking with Coach Grantham and he stated that he honestly believed Grantham was Saban's equal. He also gave Coach Richt extremely high marks for upgrading his staff and conducting his recruiting with great character. He likes Saban but he believes his recruiting methods in Georgia will catch up to him. I respect his opinion more than most of the stuff I read on here.

Very nice interview Chip and CMR! For Doc, Bauta really did look like Tebow on the field with HS players. He throws with a really nice touch, btw. If he puts some meat on, he might be good to bring in on the short yardage situations like Oklahoma did last year, and the Gators did with Tebow in his freshman year. I really like moving Samuel to FB. Richard could play TB, but most of the TBs couldn't play FB. He can, and he would enable us to get a lot more talent in the backfield. Also, I think his time at LB would make him a good blocker of LBs. I think it would be his best shot at the NFL. He is certainly big enough. The OL is the biggest unknown, but honestly I think our schedule and defense should give us time to get something going. I wish we had an all American line, though, because I think we would win it all or come real close with an outstanding OL next year. I hope the coaches will really think hard about designing plays that take pressure off of the OL and perfect them in the Spring and Summer–screens, rollouts, trick plays, etc. The rest of the O and D will be top notch. Go Dawgs!

this new CMR contract will doom the Dawgs to continued mediocrity for the next decade….
the sad thing is, there seems to be plenty of "loyal" UGA fans and alumni who seem to be happy about this ……(big sigh!!!)

But there's a greater price that's being paid than just that. As always, there's an educational piece to this thing.
Amen Coach, I hate losing as much as anyone. I want to win National Championships. But, at the end of the day I want to be proud of my school for more than just Championships. I want these kids to get their education and become better people. I want a coach of great integrity. Never having to worry about when my coach is leaving and if were going to be on probation. I' m proud of the fact that I can say I love the University of Georgia and there not be a national title since 1980. No one can ever accuse me of being a bandwagon fan. It's going to make it that much sweeter knowing when the natonal titles do come, and they will, that I was always there loving my Dawgs no matter what happened. It's not easy being a dawg fan, but I wouldn't have it any other way. GO DAWGS!!

Why don't we beef up the offensive side of the ball and learn how to sustain a 5,6 0r 7 minute drive. Then the defense will take care of it self.

I don't believe coach Richt should get more than a one or two year extension on his contract until the University wins convincingly and consistently. We have to play better against the door mats of the SEC. We cannot loose to South Carolina for a third strait year, and we have to win a National Championship.
February 23rd, 2012
8:55 pm
UGAKev….and you must be so proud that Richt recruits such standout kids that we win the "Fulmer Cup" award year after year…..
As for UGA winning another National Championship….you might have to add your kid's lifetime to that time frame….
February 23rd, 2012
9:01 pm
@Wet Willie…keep on smiling as long as our coach has a winning record vs your bunch..we can run that mouth…and we have the record to back it up …you boys talk a big game but vs UGA you don't deliver vs CMR…and that is a fact.

6-18 , another tech troll, and which fulmer cups has georgia won year after year? and willie 3rd tier program ? Richt still leads bama last time I looked 3-1.Has more SEC titles and wins than Bama since Richts been there too. Welcome back to relevance after vacating 21 wins 2 wins from 2005-2007, losses to La. Monroe, at least UGA beat Hawaii and didn't lose to Utah. every program has its ups and downs and bad losses, your wife must sleep with a picture of Rricht under her pillow for you to bash him so.Fosters in Athens doesn't mean he's going to flip or does it?Be honest your a tech troll aren't you? You never won anything in your miserable life, that s why you have to come on a Georgia blog and thump your chest like a pimpley teen that just got laid for the first time.

P-Cola Dog and savannadawg,
I'm well aware it ain't over until they sign the LOI. Just not a big fan of the kids that do those type things. UF got a kid that flipped from FSU in much the same way (D. Fowler). Is it strange that I don't think nearly as bad of Fowler as I do Clemons? LOL!!!
It all depends on whether you're wearing red and black glasses or orange and blue ones.

@NCAA Probation…..
you feel better now honey??? I'm here for you. As a matter of fact, can't stand the nerds on North avenue
As a Dawg fan expecting better, all I can see is a whole lot of NOTHING in that trophy case at Buttes-Mehre where it says "Crystal Trophy Case"
Richt's gotta go, not get a new contract…..but, it looks like you'll get your wish and we'll get our Outback Bowl year after year
February 23rd, 2012

Get your best athletes on the field!Maybe CMR has learned from CTG and if Murray starts playing poorly…..yank him.GO DAWGS!!!!

I think they should add AU to the SEC EAST. Geographically that makes sense. Then you add Mizz and A & M to the SEC West with Bama, LSU, Ark, Ole Miss, and MSU. That would give you 6 conference games. Then you have one team from the other division that you play every year. Under my format, that would go as follows:
Bama vs. AU
Fla vs. LSU
UT vs. Ark
UGA vs. Ole Miss
SC vs. MSU
UK vs. MIZZ
Vandy vs. A &M(or vice versa on the last 2)
Then you can alternate the other 2 non-divisional games every year. That would leave you 3 games left. 2 gimmes if you want, and either a non-conference math up, or the traditional non-conference rivalries( UGA vs. Tech, FSU vs. FLA, Clemson vs. SC). I think this would preserve the traditions while still allowing for variety in the schedule. This makes the most sense to me, but college football doesn't do things in a logical way, so….
Also, why a 9 game conference schedule is such a big deal is beyond me. So they'd rather have 3-4 gimme games and water down the schedule? Pathetic.
February 23rd, 2012
9:32 pm
Oh and future prediction…with all these "Super Conferences" taking shape, in the next 5 years, we will see the first National Champion with 3 losses.
February 23rd, 2012

Can we at least win a major bowl game in the next couple of years!

@ Finebaum:
If you are not happy with things in Dawg Nation there are over 100 other D-1 schools out there. Pick one you idiot…………..and soon.
CMR is not leaving so I assume you are the one to move on.

Jeff Duneske, Associate Broker at Remerica United Realty in Novi offers these 10 tips if you are selling your home this winter in Metro Detroit.
Click here to learn more about Jeff.
Let those lights shine
The best way to combat winter's short and frequently cloudy days is to turn on your house lights. For a showing, every single light in the house must be on, even in the closets and utility/mechanical rooms. Also opening the drapes and blinds during the day to let in light and let visitors enjoy the view.
It's vital that buyers have a convenient place to park. They won't want to walk very far in cold weather or be forced to climb over a snow bank to exit their vehicle. Because parking is often more restricted around condominiums, sellers should make sure their agent can pass along parking details to buyers. Winter showings can get off to a bad start if prospective buyers arrive with snow or salt on their shoes.
Keep Odors Under Control
Any home tends to be stuffy in winter when windows are opened rarely. That can allow odors to build up, which can be a turn-off to buyers. If pets are in the house, consider setting the thermostat control so that the furnace fan runs constantly during the day to keep air moving through the house and dissipate odors. Also try to avoid strong cooking odors, especially if a showing is scheduled that day.
The No. 1 favorite? Chocolate-chip cookies. Just about everybody likes that smell. Other popular scents: cinnamon rolls, freshly baked bread, apple pie, apple cider or anything with vanilla, cinnamon or yeast.
Protect your investment
Some home owners will ask buyers to either remove shoes or slip on paper "booties" over their footwear before touring the house. Many buyers like that since it indicates a pride of ownership that resonates with buyers.
Don't Ignore the OutdoorsMake a good first impression on buyers with a neatly maintained yard. Walks and steps should be kept clear, especially of snow and ice.
Choose Your Exterior Photos of Your Home WiselyI always ask home owners that I meet with during the Winter months if they have exterior pictures of their home that were taken during the Summer or Spring Months when the flowers are in full bloom and the grass is green. Buyers shop with their eyes and even though homes can look beautiful with snow and ice, nothing is more inviting then a colorful photo.
Don't Roast BuyersWe all tend to prefer a specific temperature for our homes during the winter, but don't blast buyers with hot air. Keep the temperature at a comfortable 65 degrees for all showings. Remember, buyers are likely to be wearing their coats even as they walk through the house.
Keep Seasonal Clothing under ControlOne major challenge of selling a home during the winter months is the overabundance of cold weather gear that must be stored. A buyer doesn't want to find the mudroom filled with boots or the hall closet overflowing with heavy coats. Shift some winter coats to another closet and put anything not needed in the closet into storage. To keep gloves and scarves from piling up in the front hall or mudroom, put a special container for them, such as a decorative chest, where the family typically enters the home.
Encourage Day Time Showings If Possible
A home shows to its best advantage during daylight hours, which are relatively scarce in winter. It is a good idea to also put a lot of your lights on timers throughout the home too. Sometimes you can't always make it home for early evening appointments and you don't want home buyers walking into a home that is dark. Regardless of day or evening showings, turn on as many lights as possible in your home, even closets. Let your home glow!
Despite the special challenges of marketing a home during winter, there also are benefits. Home Buyers are out looking at homes in December, January and February are, as a group, quite serious about buying. Therefore, sellers tend to benefit because each showing is more productive, and fewer showings are needed to sell the property.

President Obama has declared the swine flu outbreak a national emergency, which will allow hospitals and local governments to quickly set up alternate locations and procedures if needed to handle the possible large number of patients. Read more on the swine flu national emergency below.
The national emergency declaration came as health officials are beginning the widespread vaccination program.
The swine flu is now widespread in 46 states. Millions of people in the United States have had swine flu, also called H1N1.
Dr. Thomas R. Frieden of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention said Friday that the swine flu has killed more than 1,000 Americans and hospitalized over 20,000.
The emergency declaration only has to do with hospital treatment, not with the vaccine.
So far the surge of patients isn't so large to call for a triage area or a treatment unit off-site. Some hospitals in Texas and Tennessee that had set up triage tents in their parking lots in order to screen patients with fever or other flu symptoms, but those were on the grounds of the hospital.
President Obama's declaration is mainly a bureaucratic move that doesn't mean the swine flu outbreak of the H1N1 flu is worse. And it has nothing to do with reports of vaccine shortages.
"This is not a response to any new developments," said Reid Cherlin, a White House spokesman. "It's an important tool in our kit going forward."
Public and private health officials were administering swine flu shots at scores of locations around the country this weekend.
The seasonal flu normally hospitalizes around 200,000 people in the United States each year and kills 36,000. But over 90 percent of the deaths from seasonal flu are among the elderly, but the swine flu mostly affects children.
There is a serious shortage of swine flu vaccines; only about 16 million doses are available.

Efficiency and environmental sustainability
Sustainable transport is not just about encouraging people to use public transport. It is about reducing carbon emissions on all transport modes across the entire transport system in Victoria and designing the transport system and our cities so there is less need to travel.
The Department of Transport, Planning and Local Infrastructure is currently developing sustainable transport projects and initiatives to help achieve this goal.
Developing sustainable transport
The department recognises that climate change is one of the greatest environmental, economic and social challenges of our time.
The way we travel has a major impact on our environment - most of our air pollution and about 16.5 per cent of our greenhouse gas emissions come from transport.
The department is working hard to make Victoria's transport system sustainable. A sustainable transport system should:
- meet the social and economic needs of the present without compromising future generations' ability to meet their own needs
- protect the environment, locally and globally in the short and long term
- provide and promote lower carbon transport options
- be safe and support improved health and well-being.
The department is moving towards a more sustainable transport system by focussing on three major areas:
- shaping a more efficient city, where people live closer to their work, schools, services and shops
- making it easier for people to use more sustainable forms of transport
- improving the environmental efficiency of transport activity and the transport fleet.
Find out more about sustainable transport projects and programs.

If elected, what specific things do you hope to accomplish in the next four years?
Mangold: "With the new telecom system and aquatic center, the next four years are going to be a learning curve for the city of Powell. I hope to get a jump on the housing issues that will be coming up along with the landfill problems the entire county is trying to figure out. The next four years will also see a renewed audit of all of our city departments to make sure they are running efficiently."
Sapp: "I would like to see an economic developer/planner on staff. The city should also be well under way on the sanitation issue. I would like to see new businesses and jobs come into the area."
With construction for the new aquatic facility underway, what does the city need to concentrate on to make sure this is a successful community pool?
Mangold: "Programs and more programs. We have a very solid base of swimmers in the area with the U.S. program and the Panthers. But we need to reach out to those that have never been to the current pool and are missing out on fun and exercise. By creating a fun aquatic center, moms and dads will enjoy introducing their kids to aquatics and, hopefully, grab a swimsuit for themselves."
Sapp: "We need to concentrate on the operation and maintenance cost and meet that need. The need is going to be much greater than the public realizes."
Would you support another capital facilities tax for Park County?
Mangold: "Yes. We are in an area and a state that seem perfect for a capital facilities tax. With the state exempting food and farm machinery, plus helping out the cities and counties, the capital facilities tax is a great tool to have when needed. The capital facilities tax, with help from the tourism industry, has contributed to some outstanding projects in the area with our law enforcement center, county library and aquatic center."
Sapp: "I would support a capital facilities tax only if the project was a need and not a want."
A lot has occurred within the last year. Can the city continue at this pace?
Mangold: "Yes, we have a lot of irons in the fire. I think it is a result of the dynamics of Powell mixing with the dynamics of city hall. The staff we have at the city of Powell is an active staff, and combining that with a population of forward thinkers results in projects and city improvements. Plus, some projects inspire others."
Sapp: "The city can continue at this pace, but it needs to be in the direction of economic development and jobs. We now have in place the infrastructure to build on for new businesses to come to."
With the Powell landfill facing closure, what do you think is the best solution to Powell's sanitation issues?
Mangold: "The Powell landfill may still have a heartbeat, but a faint one. Some point to just dry refuse for Powell and leach-aid material shipped to Cody. With Park County paying for a liner at the Cody landfill, we may be able to pass DEQ inspection, but at a price. I believe the best solution is to have a transfer station in Powell. We may need the help from the state on this issue, as will other communities across Wyoming."
Sapp: "I believe that we need city-wide recycling. We need to work with the county and state offices toward site development, and we need extreme cooperation from all individuals."
Most residents agree that developing downtown business is important. How will you encourage Bent Street business?
Mangold: "The downtown IS important to the city of Powell and is one of the attractions to visitors. A clean and welcome atmosphere for shoppers needs to be maintained, plus activities need to be encouraged. The improvements to Plaza Diane along with chamber activities can introduce and re-introduce shoppers to the downtown area. We also must encourage retail businesses to set up downtown and not impede them with regulations."
Sapp: "I would like to go back and re-visit Main Street USA and work with their offices and planning to see if we could get grants for business enhancements."
Are there any other issues you would like to comment on?
Mangold: "The mayor's job has become more than just ribbon cutting. Being able to network with the county and other communities in Wyoming is very important. Talking with legislators in our area and around the state, along with offices in Cheyenne that dictate policy, is important to the citizens of Powell."
Sapp: No response.

If you missed the article (including steamy clips) of Carolina Cerisola's opening of the Floor in LA don't fret, there's surely more to come... rock out this recent clip from the Floor submitted by LA guitarist, Walter Molina
TrackBack (0)
Last night, I had a blast listening to another live flamenco show at hotel le petit starring my dear friend and guitar instructor Walter Molina. The vibe was amazing as always including the people and the food. While sitting in the candlelight, taken away by the music, I couldn't help to think of the world's most famous flamenco guitarrista Paco De Lucia, who happens to be Walter's mentor's mentor. I guess that would make Paco my great mentor! Can you see the resemblance?
As I have mentioned before, I've always been drawn to the art of flamenco and finally got the nerve to begin studying flamenco guitar under Los Angeles based Walter Molina.
Check out the clip above of legendary Carmen Amaya (November 2, 1913 - November 19, 1963) who was a flamenco dancer and singer, born in the Somorrostro slum of Barcelona, Spain (Vila Olímpica nowadays). She danced from the time she was 4years old. In 1929, she made her debut in Paris, to warm acclaims and admiration of her dancing skill. She moved to America in 1936, where she went on to act in several films that broke box office records, including the Romeo and Juliet adaptation Los Tarantos, and the short film Danzas Gitanas (Gypsy Dances).
Trivia: Carmen was invited by Franklin Roosevelt to dance in the White House in 1944, and also by Harry S. Truman in 1953
Walter Molina has been performing flamenco music around town for a handful of years. When I first came back to LA, I googled flamenco in los angeles in order to find a cozy spot to get out and listen to what I consider to be some of the most passionate music on the planet. I found a sleeper of a spot in the valley called Ole which has great happy hour tapas and most importantly, live flamenco music Tuesday nights. The first time I went I met the Walter, the featured guitarrista, and became a regular ever since. If you decide to check it out one night, let me know and I'll buy your sangria!

Servings: 4 servings
Cook Time: 1 hour
Difficulty: Easy
1 1/2 cups, plus 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
8 (4-ounce) tenderized beef round steak (have butcher run them through cubing machine)
1 teaspoon Paula Deen's House Seasoning
1 teaspoon seasoning salt
3/4 cup vegetable oil
1 1/2 teaspoons salt
4 cups hot water
1/2 teaspoon monosodium glutamate (recommended: Ac'cent), optional
1 bunch green onions, or 1 medium yellow onion, sliced
Combine 1 1/2 cups flour and 1/4 teaspoon of pepper in a small bowl. Sprinkle 1 side of the meat with the House Seasoning and the other side with the seasoning salt, and then dredge the meat in the flour mixture. Heat 1/2 cup oil in a large heavy skillet over medium-high heat. Add 2 or 4 of the steaks to the hot oil, and fry until browned, about 5-6 minutes per side. Remove each steak to a paper towel-lined plate to drain. Repeat with the remaining steaks, adding up to 1/4 cup more oil, as needed.
Make the gravy by adding the 2 tablespoons remaining flour to the pan drippings, scraping the bottom with a wooden spoon. Stir in the remaining 1/4 teaspoon pepper, and the salt. Reduce the heat to medium and cook, stirring frequently, until the flour is medium brown and the mixture is bubbly. Slowly add the water and the monosodium glutamate, if using, stirring constantly. Return the steaks to the skillet and bring to a boil over medium-high heat. Reduce the heat to low, and place the onions on top of the steaks. Cover the pan, and let simmer for 30 minutes.

Why isn't the original recipe Paula released on her website??? It is, by far, the BEST chicken fried steak recipe I've ever had. It took 3 hours on Google to find it in a lost corner of the internet. PLEASE put this one on your website!!! Paula Deen's Chicken Fried Steak 1 sleeve saltine crackers, crushed 1 cup all-purpose flour 1 1/2 tablespoons seasoned salt, such as The Lady's Seasoned Salt 2/3 cup buttermilk 2 large eggs 1 1/4 pounds cubed steak Milk Gravy Preheat oven to 225°F. In a shallow dish, combine crackers, flour, and seasoned salt. In a wide bowl, whisk together buttermilk and eggs. Dredge steaks in cracker mixture; dip in buttermilk mixture; and dredge again in cracker mixture. Place prepared steaks on a wire rack set in a jellyroll pan to set crust, 5 minutes. Pour oil to a depth of 1/2 inch in a large heavy skillet; heat oil to 360°F. Fry steaks 3 to 4 minutes per side, or until golden, turning only once. Remove steaks to a clean wire rack set in a jellyroll pan. Keep steaks warm in oven. Carefully drain hot oil into a heat-proof container, leaving 1 to 2 tablespoons oil and browned bits in skillet for gravy.

Our chicken fried steak is not as "healthy" but it's the best around. tenderized chuck steak cut into serving portions egg water flour salt/pepper veggie shortening 2 or 3 pie plates for prepping your steaks (1 for 1st flour dredge, 1 for egg wash, 1 for 2nd flour dredge) You can double dip in one flour pie plate - I do. frying pan/skillet Salt 'n pepper both sides of your steak. Beat 1 egg with a little water (maybe a tablespoon) Dredge your steak in flour, then dip both sides in egg wash, then dredge in either the same flour or your 2nd flour pie plate. Set aside. Heat enough shortening to measure 1-1/2" deep on medium high heat. Gently lay your steaks in hot shortening. Brown on both sides until they are golden brown. The shortening will ensure that your coating stays on. I promise you this as my sister could never figure out why her steaks would lose it's coating - 'cause she used oil! And DO NOT COVER YOUR PAN! Serve with your best Country gravy recipe or mix.

Really enjoyed it! Very tasty!!! Being chicken fried steak lovers, I do agree on the thicker batter, so We just dipped the steaks in egg before flour and it came out great!

I need a batter recipe for deep fried chicken, not the dry coating but the batter type coating.

I really enjoyed this, i've never even tasted chixfry steak before making this. I poured off most of the oil after the steaks were done frying, sauteed part of a red onion, then added a little of the oil back in to saute the flour. I used some leftover chicken broth instead of water and simmered the steaks for maybe 10 minutes. I thought it came out DELISH. My native-Texan sweetheart did not. He's used to white gravy, to him brown gravy and onions are what you put on liver to make it a little less gross. Some of the flour did come of the steaks, but not much and made the gravy so tasty...

This is so yummy. A chicken fried steak with a twist. Family and I give this to big thumbs up.
By Michael on April 13, 2011
This is a great recipe in many ways but there are two weird things about it: There is no need to cook a piece of meat like this for 30 minutes, as another reviewer noted. I also just put them back in the gravy and simmered gently for a few minutes. More seriously, how do 4 cups of water get with 2 TB of flour to make a gravy? You get a very watery slurry out of that ratio, even with the extra flour from the dredged meat. Two cups of water would have done the job better.

I liked this recipe, but I must say, I followed the directions off of her show, not the ones that appear here. On the show she says to dip the steaks in buttermilk prior to dredging in the flour. What happened to that step on here???
By Anonymous on September 24, 2010
Loved this one. My husband is the cook around here. He forgot to put the onions on and it was still excellent. This recipe is a keeper for us.

I like Paula Deen. I think she is an adorable Southern woman with all of the hospitality. As for this recipe, though I have not tried it per say- from my kitchen chemistry experience, I have to agree with the 1st reviewer. It is very difficult to fry a beef round cubed steak in this flour mixture without the crust falling off from all of the grease. Also, can't understand why the steak would be placed back in the pan for 30 min. My recommendation; gently sear the steaks with little to no oil, to pre-cook, then follow her flour dredging, or better yet- add some buttermilk, dredge and fry.

I think this was the best chicken fried steak recipe i've ever tasted. It was easy to prepare and the family LOVED it. For the person who said it was "seriously the most disgusting" I think knowing how to follow directions and cook would help! Great recipe Paula!

This book made me put down the other 5 books I was supposed to be reading to read this instead. Rowell is a master of painfully honest and funny-smart dialogue.
Ah, nothing like a love story between two stalkers. Just what a fangirl needs.
Rainbow Rowell is quickly becoming on of my favorite authors. She knows just the right way to make her characters believable. Enjoyed this book!
"Lincoln's job is to monitor the email communications between co-workers at the newspaper he works for; Beth and Jennifer are best friends who, despite the newspaper's email policy, spend much of their time chatting and confiding via email. While reading their correspondence, Lincoln unexpectedly gets hooked on their daily dramas and falls for Beth. Set in 1999-2000, when email was still relatively new, this leisurely paced novel offers both charm and humour. Fans should keep an eye out for author Rainbow Rowell's latest, Landline, published this month!" Fiction A to Z July 2014 newsletter http://www.libraryaware.com/996/NewsletterIssues/ViewIssue/b4f6ee64-db77-4e52-b8b4-047c4a840df7?postId=68a5ce8f-6d53-453a-a4fa-045bd063b705
Lincoln O'Neil works as an internet security officer, thinking he'd be able to do exciting tasks to ensure the security of the company's he works for. In reality, O'Neil monitors the work emails of the employees within the company; a very unenjoyable job at first glance. While doing this dreary task, Lincoln comes across the emails being sent between Beth Fremont and Jennifer Scribner-Snyder. Lincoln is supposed to report emails that are not work related, but he finds that he is drawn to the conversations between the two women – especially Beth's messages.
The name "attachments" acts as a double meaning, the first of which implies the fact that most of the novel revolves around emailing and Lincoln is, in a sense, "attached" in the emails between the two women without their knowledge. The second of which represents the growing attachment between Lincoln towards Beth, although she does not know it yet. It is far too late when Lincoln realizes that he is falling for Beth without technically meeting her, thus he has become just an attachment in the emails.
This novel, taking place right before the new millennium, has the ability of capturing the attention of readers. This is due to the somewhat strange reality of how a person can fall in love without even meeting in real life. This concept relates to the still unsettling prospect of online dating in our time. Meeting online, whether through email or online video games, has become a new way of getting to know a person without having to rely on appearances and physicality for a connection between each other. The growing attachment of Lincoln to Beth, even without meeting, takes in a hilarious yet sweetly romantic aspect that truly is able to keep readers enticed while watching this clever and witty love story unravel.
Rainbow Rowell's first published novel is a love story set in Y2K time when a young IT guy falls for a woman whose email he's been monitoring. It is funny, sweet and of course lovely. The characters are very pungent and real -- and it brought back all that nonsense about the new millennium. She is just a marvel with dialogue -- really she should write a play.
Can't wait to read Landline.
really enjoyed this one
The perfect beach read! This is one of the first books written by the author of "Eleanor & Park" and "Fangirl". Socially awkward Lincoln is hired to read all flagged staff emails at a large company. While reading the email correspondence of coworkers Beth and Jennifer, he finds himself getting engrossed in their stories and falling in love with Beth. This is an excellent light and frothy read.
really loved this one. sweet story, and a refreshing twist with the idea of him being the "invisible internet security person." i loved this book. i love rainbow rowell, read eleanor & park and fangirl if you haven't already!
If you are in your early forties, this is the romantic comedy for you. All the book/music references will make sense if you are into Dungeons & Dragons and science fiction movies.
Pretty delightful with just enough meat to make it more than fluff.

Collectively owned grocery stores pop up in places like Jamaica Plain and Cambridge, where liberal-leaning residents make strong connections between their politics and their kitchen provisions. But what are the start-up and survival chances for a food co-op in the Bowdoin-Geneva section of Dorchester, where incomes are low, safety concerns are high, and people care more about the cost of a basket of food than whether it can be traced back to the source of a local farm?
This week, the Globe published a five-part series on the 68-block, Bowdoin-Geneva area, much of it focused on families unhinged by violence. But the reporters revealed a lot more about this neighborhood than its punishing streets and foreclosed homes. It was a story of renewal, symbolized by the growth of a community garden on Coleman Street.

Verizon Foundation Teams Up With New England Aquarium to Enhance Teen Intern Experience
The Verizon Foundation and The New England Aquarium have teamed up to ensure that student interns not only receive a paycheck but also develop the 21st century skills needed to succeed in the future.
The New England Aquarium was awarded with a $50,000 grant from The Verizon Foundation to enhance the summer internship program at the aquarium. During the summer the aquarium employs 100 interns in a variety of different positions ranging from customer service jobs in the gift shop to giving presentations on different marine life.
The Verizon Foundation grant will provide support for workforce team building and supervisor training programs as well as technology and educational enhancements. Students will utilize the Verizon Foundation's Thinkfinity.org as a resource in the development of their teaching and presentation skills.
"The Aquarium's enhanced internship program provides teens with a richer and more meaningful learning experience," said Donna Cupelo, New England region president of Verizon. "Verizon has a long history of employing student interns and supporting the education of our youth. This partnership provides us with an invaluable opportunity to engage students in an internship experience that will give them the important skills they need to succeed in the 21st century."
The New England Aquarium Teen Internship Program was formalized in 1992 and is one of the largest teen summer employers in Boston. The aquarium is on of the most prominent and popular aquariums in North America and is a recognized international leader in ocean conservation, education and research.

A federal appeals court has stayed the ruling of the judge that ordered an end to the John Doe probe against conservative groups campaigning for Governor Scott Walker in the 2012 campaign and recalls. This means prosecutors can keep whatever evidence they have collected.
The 7th Circuit Court of Appeals in Chicago granted the stay less than eight hours after the ruling by Judge Rudolph Randa in Milwaukee.
The case involves Wisconsin Club for Growth against the prosecutors in Milwaukee County that pursued the probe.
MILWAUKEE (WSAU-Wheeler News) A special prosecutor expects to appeal a federal judge's ruling yesterday, which halted a secret John Doe probe into Republican campaign activities during Wisconsin's recall elections. Milwaukee Federal Judge Rudolph Randa said one of the targets -- the Wisconsin Club for Growth -- had its free speech rights violated. The judge said the group and its treasurer found a way to circumvent campaign finance laws, and the move should be recognized as a way to promote political speech instead of restricting it.
Special Prosecutor Francis Schmitz says he'll need to consult with other prosecutors in the case, and his own attorney, before deciding on an appeal of Randa's decision. The judge said prosecutors were scrutinizing group consultant R-J Johnson as a hub who coordinated activities for Governor Scott Walker's campaign and several groups that included the United Sportsmen and Wisconsin Right-to-Life. Prosecutors were looking for violations of the law which prohibit campaign coordination between candidates and outside groups.
The Club for Growth said it was unfair that the probe only targeted conservatives. The investigation centered on the 2011-and-'12 recall contests, in which Walker became the nation's first governor to survive such an effort.
Judge Randa ordered the return of all evidence seized during the probe, plus the destruction of any materials gathered by prosecutors.
Milwaukee County District Attorney John Chisholm started the probe in mid-2012.

Will Nick Clegg survive as leader? An equation which will give us the answer
28 February 2011 1 Comment
There has been much talk recently of how long Nick Clegg will last as leader of the Lib Dems with many predictions of an imminent end to lasting a long time. But what if we could actually predict this using an equation? An equation was developed to know if a relationship would break down which not only tells you if your relationship will end, but may also tell us if Nick Clegg is about to be kicked out as leader.
A relationship is the condition of being related through a connection or association. As Nick Clegg is the leader of the Lib Dems, those who are members have an association and therefore a relationship to/with him and many of the principles of relationships apply. There are two important factors in relationships which are happiness and stability. These 2 factors make up 4 possibilities: happy and stable, unhappy and stable, happy and unstable, and unhappy and unstable.
To predict which of these the relationship is currently in, relationship researchers have identified 3 equations.
Equation 1: Outcome = Rewards – (Costs x 5)
A reward is anything desirable that brings pleasure to the receiver. A cost is anything negative that's punishing and unwanted. Any part of an interaction that causes frustration or distress is a cost. Humans tend to weigh negatives more strongly than positives, so for every cost there needs to be five rewards for the relationship to be on solid ground.
Equation 2: Satisfaction or Dissatisfaction = Outcomes – Expectations
Our expectations are based on our past experiences, and to be satisfied our relationship needs to be meeting our expectations.
Equation 3: Dependence or Independence = Outcomes – Alternatives
The last criterion involves how well one person perceives they could manage without the other. If another option promises better outcomes then they'll consider ending things.
The ideal state would be a happy and stable relationship. Lib Dem members will perceive the outcome for the party with Nick Clegg as being much greater than both their expectations and the alternatives.
In an unhappy but stable relationship, members' expectations would be higher than their current outcomes, so they're dissatisfied, but because they feel they have no viable alternatives, they won't move against him.
In a happy yet unstable relationship members will perceive the alternative choices as being better than the outcomes with Nick Clegg, meaning they might toy with the idea of moving against Nick Clegg, but they're happy because he has exceeded their expectations.
Finally, if the members believe that the outcomes for the party with Nick Clegg are lower than both their expectations and the alternatives, the relationship between members and the leader will be unhappy and unstable, making it likely that they will try and get rid of him pretty quickly.

Comments about Audio Technica ATH-M40x Professional Monitor Headphones:
This headphone is amazing! I was blown away with how accurate and neutral this headphone is. My friend has the M50's and they sound awesome too but I chose the M40X since they are much more accurate and this is the way the music was supposed to sound. It has a rich and tight bass that is a pleasure to hear. The mids and vocals are marvelous and are very clear. The highs and heavenly and unlike the M50's, these headphones are not tuned to give an emphasis on the highs like the M50's which in my opinion is great since you get an overall extremely balanced sound.
