The building replicas and cookbooks can be found at the Oak Hill Museum Shop. Prints and paintings of Berry scenes (as shown below) are created by artist Wanda Riggs Mack and can be found here.
The Daughters' latest cookbook (ninth edition) is the continuation of a tradition of cookbooks through which the Daughters have told the Berry story. This book reaches out to include some Berry sons whose culinary skills have gained recognition. It also retains recipes labeled "Historic Berry" in their origin while bringing new recipes from the increasing numbers of club members. Purchase Dining with the Daughters online through the Oak Hill Gift Shop.
The Daughters of Berry, Inc., was founded in 1939 at the encouragement of Martha Berry. The mission of the Daughters of Berry, Inc., is to preserve the traditions and heritage of Berry College; to foster the ideals of our founder; to sponsor preservation and restoration projects in support of historic Berry and to further the interest of Berry College whenever possible.
All Berry alumnae and wives of Berry alumni are invited to join The Daughters of Berry, Inc. Regular meetings of The Daughters of Berry are normally held in the Garden Room of the Martha Berry Museum at 5:30 p.m. on the third Thursday of the months of September, October, November, February, March, and April, with a closing picnic supper in May at Catherine Cottage.
To learn more about Daughters of Berry or to join, contact Kim Melton, Vice President of Membership, at firstname.lastname@example.com. 2013-2014 Officers
With that determined fervor which was so characteristic of Martha Berry, she suggested to Mrs. L. Geddins Cannon, Mrs. M. Gordon Keown, and Mrs. Clifton Russell, Sr., that she would like for them to organize a club whose membership would be composed of Berry women graduates and the wives of Berry graduates. For the club's name, she proposed The Daughters of Berry.
In October 1939, the first meeting of the Daughters of Berry took place in Roosevelt Cabin. Martha Berry's enthusiasm for her schools motivated the women to choose as their purpose the preservation of the ideals of Berry, of upholding the traditions on which The Berry Schools were founded and selecting as an ultimate goal the building of a museum in which to preserve Berry's history of cabin to college, to save the memorabilia of the school, and to tell the ongoing story of Berry.
Since the opening of the Martha Berry Museum at Oak Hill in 1972, the Daughters of Berry have contributed to a variety of preservation projects, including the restoration of key pieces of the museum's art collection, replacing parlor draperies and shades and the reproduction of historic rugs for the Oak Hill home. The Daughters of Berry continues its efforts to save our history and tell the ongoing story of Berry just as envisioned by Miss Berry seventy years ago.

After sampling one good street for nightlife in Chicago, last night I decided to sample another one – Division Street, and in particular Division between Dearborn and Slate near the Clark/Division subway stop on the red line.
While this is only one block, there are a heap of bars to be found here. There's a small bar called The Lodge which attracts an older clientele, and then you've got Shenanigan's House of Beers which is an Irish bar with nothing Irish about it. Across the road from there is Finn McCool's which is the same. And another is Mother's Too which is a bit of a dive bar, but is fun nonetheless.
If you're planning a trip to Chicago and are wondering where to go out at night, take our advice – Division between Dearborn and Slate is where it's at.
In our hostelworld.com travel blog we bring you all the latest company news and information on new additions to the site including podcasts, videos and more. You'll also get inside information on a variety of destinations across the globe as they're visited by our travel editor and writers.

Chapter One
The day had come. The people of the Caribbean tribe needed to move before the winter spirits froze their sea and refreshed everything. Nothing would be accessible while the spirits worked their magic, hence the existance of the Calypso Islands, a tropical paradise with plenty of supplies for all the six tribes, Atlantic, Pacific, Indian, Southern, Artic, and a smaller sea tribe, Caribbean, to live and stay while spirits refreshed their life. To move safely, each of the tribes needed their very own goddess to help them, then leave behind an Essence with Tidecaller magic.
Kuna watched as Floressa, the girl many adults thought were going to be the Essence, created her own seashell necklace for the Lantern Night. All the girls above sixteen years of age were allowed to participate on the Lantern Night. It is a festival to find who would be Vesla's Essence. All the tribes gathered in a special cave with the Marine Stone, to see who was the Essence. If there were multiples, they compete to unveil the true Essence. Tikana walked to Kuna, oblivious to her friend's tight face. "Tonight we find out if Floressa is really worthy of Vesla." Tikana said, rubbing a hand over her perfect and naturally tanned caramel colored skin. She walked away, and another girl replaced Tikana's spot almost immediately.
It was Ivette, Kuna's lifelong best friend. She had a sweet face, and large almond brown eyes. Her round face was shielded by locks of flowing brown hair, reaching down to her doll-like waist in an intricate five strand braid. Her side bangs were left out to give her face a younger look. "Stop worrying. I still think you're Vesla's Essence." She said, a deeper voice than expected from her small stature. "Me? Oh-" Kuna was stopped in her sentence and was pulled behind a mountain of woven grass baskets.
"Look at what Floressa is doing!" Ivette hissed, pointing at the blond girl, looking around suspiciously. She then rummaged in her little purse and pulled out a wad of see through grass, with the tips tinted mint green. Floressa turned to the side and stuffed the grass into a pink seashell necklace. She then secured the edges of the seashell together and put it on. Both girls' eyes widened. Floressa was trying to prove herself to be an Essence, and fool the tribe.
"Lightshine grass! How dare she? Just because she's considered perfect doesn't mean Vesla will choose her. What will we do?" Ivette asked, her petite fingers clinging together in a tangled ball of light caramel color. "She would have to compete with the real Essence... What if she really is the Essence, Ivee?" Kuna asked. " Floressa is too..." Ivette paused to make a face with crooked fingers, and continued, "to be an Essence." They both snickered, then hurried away before the other girl could find out they were spying on her.
Floressa clasped the dyed pink seashell in her lightly colored hands. Her blond hair covered her face as she whispered to the seashell, trying to activate the Lightshine grass in time. "Lux fulgebit velit, at tempus. Lux, commodo candescere, firmandos Vestibulum arcu." She stroked her fingers over it, covered it in both hands afterwards, and kissed it on the top. Smiling, the blonde flounced away with the pink seashell hanging on a delicate string in front of her perfectly pink colored dress.
"Well? What are you going to do about it?" Symphonia asked, her gorgeous blue eyes wondering. Kuna had shared the news with her foreign tribe friends. They were seated in their own little cove. It was Lantern Night, and Kuna's friends from previous visits to the Calypso Islands were there discussing the problem. "Let her get on with it. She's obviously not the real Essence, she'd lose in the Essence Trail." Harena said, her dark almond eyes glittering. Isia tilted her head. "Floressa could suffer on the Trail. She's calculating, but surely she doesn't deserve to die on it?" She asked, a little worried. "If she plans on trying to fool your Vesla, she'd be prepared for it." Harena said, crossing her arms. Tikana nodded, looking at Tikka, who was keeping an eye on the ceremony. "It's starting." All the girls nodded and clutched their seashell necklaces, walking to the Sea Stone.
"Kuna of the Caribbean sea tribe." Kuna let go of the hem of her pure white dress, with little blue shades mixed in, and walked up to the glittering green and blue Sea Stone. Holding her blue seashell in one hand, she closed her eyes and touched one hand to the chilly Sea Stone. She felt an exhilarating rush; it made her want to let go and dance. A burst of wind blew her hair backwards, and several girls gasped.
"Kuna, Vesla's Essence of the Caribbean tribe." Mara spoke up, and the Tidecaller guided Kuna away from the stone, placing her in a group with Essences from the other tribes. Her heart was pounding. She stood in place, her eyes wide and she didn't breathe. All she could think was that she was an Essence, she beat Floressa, she would carry her tribe proudly. Her blue seashell necklace was glowing brightly and not to mention, naturally.
"Ivette of the Caribbean sea tribe." Kuna watched as her friend walk up to the Sea Stone. She just touched it and- nothing. Ivette grinned and walked away, smiling confidently at Kuna and gesturing to the blonde behind her. "Floressa of the Caribbean sea tribe." All of the girls who knew about the Lightshine grass watched her intently, eyes fixed to her movements and the ridiculously pink seashell.
After a few moments, it began to glow, noticeable but not as bright as the usual Essence light. Everyone gasped, and the air around the tribes chilled, then fell to a silence. "Floressa, Essence competitor of Vesla." Shocked faces revealed one by one as they came to realize what they were hearing. "We have not had competitors in the past century." Camena, the Caribbean Mistress, said. It was truly rare to have two Essences.
"You'll win." Adriana said, her seashell necklace still glowing faintly. All the Essences gathered in a cove to prepare. Floressa was sitting in a corner, facing a wall far away from the others. All the other girls that were Kuna's friends had become Essences, surprisingly. "It is okay, she is a fake. Only the true Essence can win. Do not worry, Kuna." Crystalline said. Her words were lengthened by her accent, and her dark blue eyes reassured Kuna. "We're all rooting for you." Cella said, grinning. "Kuna and Floressa, please come to be prepared." Mara called. The Tidecaller walked away with a sweep of her royal robe. Kuna stood up, glancing very briefly at Floressa. The blonde got up and followed as well, staring at Kuna coolly as if she had done nothing wrong.
Kuna was dressed in an outfit of black. She had a belt and knives strapped to the side, and a pouch with maps and other things. She also had a coat on, the inside lined with knife holsters and filled with all kinds of knives, to suit her every need. Kuna's hair was wrapped in an intricate braid, building up to a bun near the top of her head, with swirls of braids all around her head. She took a step out of the cove and looked at her competitor, who was looking at herself in the mirror, dressed in all white. She had braids as well, but it hung down her shoulders and the braids interwoven into one final big braid. Camena and Mara led them to a set of holes in the cave, with a curtain of leaves. "To win this competition and claim yourself the rightful place of Vesla's Essence, you will have to uncover the truth of the Pearl and bring it back. Sabotaging your opponent will immediately disqualify you. It means harming them to the point of disability and scar." The Mistress explained, and guided both to one of the holes. "I wish you Vesla's luck." Mara said, touching both competitors on the shoulder, and she gestured to the darkness outside. Kuna took a deep breath and leveled a glare at Floressa, then exited, wielded with a knife.

Pet Care : puppies
Puppy and Kitten Health: The Diet Connection
Puppies and kittens are just like babies in many ways. They can get cold very easily, they can get sick easily, and they require frequent meals. They rely on their parents (or at least their mom) for care and food in the initial weeks after they are born. In most cases, puppies or kittens go home with someone new between 6 and 8 weeks of age. This is where you come in, the new puppy or kitten owner. It can be very difficult to choose the right puppy food or kitten food, but with some knowledge of the importance of diet to your new puppy or kitten's health, you can easily make the right decision.
A good quality growth formula (puppy or all life stages food) is very important for your rapidly growing puppy. New advances in pet nutrition allow you to provide your puppy with optimal nutrition for optimal health. Small and medium breed puppies are often fed differently than large or giant breed puppies. The primary difference is the fat and calorie content of the foods that are labeled for the different sized breeds. Small and medium breed puppies benefit from higher fat levels, what would be considered formulas with greater energy density. Because these tiny puppies do not eat a large volume of food, it is best to feed a diet that contains at least 15% fat to achieve optimal growth and development. Large and giant breed puppies may benefit from diets that are lower in fat and calories to help them grow more slowly so that they are less likely to develop bone and joint abnormalities. While genetics is the most important factor affecting the health of the bones and joints of these puppies, diet can play a role by promoting too rapid of a growth rate. Keeping puppies in lean body condition is something that will help keep them healthier throughout their lives. For more information regarding developmental abnormalities of the skeletal system, please read our companion articles: Developmental Orthopedic Disease or Hypertrophic Osteodystrophy and Panosteitis.
Kittens benefit from kitten foods that are high in protein and high in fat. This type of formula is lower in carbohydrates than diets that are lower in protein or fat. Cats are carnivores, designed to consume high protein diets with very little, if any, carbohydrate content. Dry pet foods must contain carbohydrates, this is just a fact of the manufacturing process. However, feeding your kitten a kitten food that is greater than 30% protein and greater than 18% fat, will help provide your kitten with optimal nutrition for growth, development, and health.
Antioxidants are important additions to any puppy food or kitten food. Vitamin E and selenium are recognized as two of the most critically important antioxidants for the health of your pet. Look on the Guaranteed Analysis for nutrient guarantees of these two important antioxidants. As food is digested and metabolized, one of the by-products of this process is a particle called a free radical. The formation of free radicals is just part of everyday living. Because young animals take in such a large number of calories, their bodies produce free radicals at a higher rate. Young animals have more natural mechanisms to rid themselves of these pesky particles, but benefit from a diet that includes some additional help in neutralizing these charged oxygen molecules. Free radicals damage healthy cells by injuring the membrane, or covering, around the cell. Neutralizing the free radicals with antioxidants will help minimize this effect.
Your puppy's health and your kitten's health can be positively impacted with fatty acids. Fatty acids are components of fat sources within the puppy food or kitten food that you select for you new pet. There are two primary groups of fatty acids that we are interested in: omega-6 fatty acids and omega-3 fatty acids. Omega-6 fatty acids are required nutrients and are present in all puppy foods and kitten foods. Omega-6 fatty acids keep the skin hydrated so that it does not become dry and flaky. However, if omega-6 fatty acids are not balanced with omega-3 fatty acids, they may promote inflammation within the body. There are cells that respond to different insults or attacks within the body. These cells are inflammatory cells. Sometimes though, these cells respond to a non-existent threat and cause irritation or damage in otherwise healthy parts of the body. Omega-3 fatty acids help prevent this indiscriminate inflammation. Omega-3 fatty acids are not always added to puppy foods or kitten foods. Ingredients such as flaxseed, fish meal, and fish oil include omega-3 fatty acids. Look on the guaranteed analysis for omega-3 fatty acids. They should be present in a 5:1 to 10:1 ratio of omega-6:omega-3 fatty acids for optimal health effects.
Let's talk just briefly about ingredients. Ingredients are only as important as the nutrients that they provide to the formula. Fresh meats are appealing to your puppy or kitten because they improve the flavor of the food. However, these fresh meats should be followed with a protein meal that is animal sourced, such as chicken meal, chicken by-product meal, or lamb meal, to name a few. Fresh meats are great, but they are very high in water. So, when the food is cooked, the water is removed and much less of the fresh meat is left behind. This is why dry protein meals are critical to providing adequate protein levels for your rapidly growing puppy or your carnivorous kitten.
Natural preservatives include mixed tocopherols (vitamin E), ascorbic acid (vitamin C), and rosemary extract. The technology behind natural preservation has come a long way. We can now safely and effectively preserve pet foods for many months using only natural ingredients.
Many puppy foods and kitten foods now include whole grains, fruits, and vegetables. These ingredients may help promote a healthier metabolism and also provide natural sources of vitamins and minerals. Your puppy's health or your kitten's health does not rely solely on ingredients such as these and some pets do better on diets that are simpler, more basic and do not contain so many varied ingredients, especially when these foods contain the nutrients that were mentioned above.
Feeding your puppy or kitten for his optimal health is not difficult with some many choices of quality puppy foods and kitten foods. All puppies and all kittens cannot eat the same food with the same results and some trial and error may be necessary to find just the right food, but with the right choice, your puppy or kitten will grow and thrive and become a happy and healthy adult.
Please note that this information does not replace professional veterinary care. It is solely for educational purposes. Your pet's medical condition should be evaluated by a veterinarian before any medical decisions are implemented. If there is a potentially life-threatening emergency involving your pet, take your pet to a veterinarian or veterinary facility immediately.

T. Anthony's has the worst customer service I have ever experienced. I ordered my food at around 7, got a delivery estimate of 7:50 and the food did not come until 8:20. At that point I was starving and went to eat my food and it was all cold. I called to explain and the employee refused to believe my story (accused me of lying about the delivery time and my food being cold), and told me never to order from them again. As a local and loyal patron of the restaurant, I was shocked. THEIR mistake, and they respond with such rudeness. Furthermore, the manager told me he would refund the eggplant, but that I needed to go through grub hub (where I had ordered from). But when Grub Hub called Joe (I'm guessing the manager) to confirm the refund, he refused to give me one. I received disgusting food, terrible service AND they refused to refund me. The employee was a liar. Needless to say I will follow Joe's request and never order from this horrendous establishment again.
OBSESSED! – BU students, when you are drunk in the wee hours of the night (or if you're up late studying or just stone cold sober and in the mood for awesome food) you have to go to T Anthony's! The pizza and subs are incredible! They also have amazing hot sauce, so I suggest ordering a side of it with your pizza because it will make it even better.
Best pizza place on Comm Ave – Oh, T Anthony's. Where else can college students go to get pizza, subs and salads at 1am? The food is absolutely delicious, and at great prices. Best greek salad in town, best meatball sub, and the pizza is fantastic. There are no trash cans, so you just order, eat and leave. However, if the place gets swamped, you can count on poor customer service. If you're ordering delivery, be prepared to wait at least an hour - this popular pizza place caters to the entire BU campus.
Code 10 @ T-anthony's! – Code 10 is the BPD radio code requesting a lunch or dinner break! T-Anthony's steak tips and onion rings are so good that the menu should be standard department issued equipment. Everything I've tried had always been of the highiest standards - fresh, tastful, large portions. Nothing illegal here!
Perfect for a late night junk food stop – When walking back to the BU campus, T. Anthony's is a great place to stop to get out of the cold. Sure, they reheat their pizza, but at the end of the night you just want something tasty and unhealthy to eat.
However, don't make the same mistake I did and order a cheeseburger. It was burnt and dry. It's a pizza place. Get pizza. Duh.
not good – very rude service. there was food missing from our order which they did nothing about. horrible food. i will never go here again
Horrible Delivery - good pizza in person – I've ordered from T Anthony's 3 times (hoping the pizza will be as delicious as in the resteraunt - NOPE) and each time its been ice cold, soggy and taken an hour to 90 minutes, and I live 1 mile away!!
And to add, they have always been rude.
If you are looking for great pizza delivery, this ain't it.
Best Pizza – We love their pizza. their cause is really good, large pieces of tomatoes in it. we were recently in NY at a place our friends raved about, it was very similar to this place, but the NY sauce wasn't nearly as good. We usually get cheese pizza, sometimes with garlic. I like simple pizza. Their steak tips and turkey sandwich are also good and their breakfast is cheap. The workers aren't out-going-ly friendly, but they're fun to watch interacting with people, just don't take it personally you wimps. If you worked as hard as they do and for as little as they probably make, you'd probably act the same. I almost always get it to go. Only and minor disadvantage for us is that they have fountain cokes, but bottled pepsi products. i prefer bottled coke, so i usually just go next store and pick some up. Also, the people who take the money also touch the food, cleanliness concerns? But I've never gotten sick. We always buy two pizzas and freeze one, put the uneaten one in the freezer and put it in the oven for 13 minutes on 400? and it tastes fresh. LLLLLLove T Anthonys, especially for pizza.
Great Pizza on the Run – I can't tell you how many times I've used Foodler to order a pizza or two for me and my roommates. They also have a substantial list of hot and cold subs, pasta, and other dinners that are moderately priced college students. The pizza is great, and the chicken ceasar salads are fantastic as well.
While many renovations have improved the ambiance of this dine-in pizzeria, it still shows its age. I tend not to enjoy eating in harsh fluorescent lighting, but to each his own. Even with this minor flaw, the service and food are wonderful. A great place to eat when you're on the go or with friends.
Best Pizza! – T Anthony's is the ONLY place in Boston to get NY style pizza that tastes good! Beware of the drunk BU'ers coming down the road around 1:30 am for some munchies!

I have used ceylon cinnamon for years, buying it from Mountain Rose and Penzeys Spices, and I must say that this one from Frontier is the best I have ever tasted. The flavor is stronger than either penzeys or mountain rose, but it has the same delicate vanilla-citrus smell and flavor of good quality Ceylon. This is the first bag of Frontier's ceylon I've bought, so I have no way of knowing why some other reviewers thought the quality was bad. But I will say this: the 1st bag of ceylon I ever bought was tan in color, not bright like cassia cinnamon, and had no odor. I thought it must be bad, so I put it away, forgot about it, and ordered one from Penzeys. Lo and behold, the Penzeys stuff was exactly the same! I then realized that ceylon was very different from cassia, and wound up using both bags and enjoying the delicate flavor in coffee. I use ceylon for my brain (it has been shown to dissolve tau tangles in the brain, so warding off Alzheimer's) and I have found it very effective in increasing brain sharpness. But I also love the taste of ceylon, and because it has only negligible coumarin content, I can use several tsp a day. One word of warning: I have also bought supposed ceylon from another online spice store (my spice sage) which although it has good quality spices in other categories, sent me a cinnamon that clearly was not ceylon, tasted like a variety of cassia with its sharp taste, and yet they insisted it was ceylon. I am definitely going to order Frontier ceylon again, and I am thankful to Iherb that their price for this product is lower than elsewhere.
Ooh-La-Lah! Subtly Delicious!

The first time I was to order, I became a little Worried I was making a Poor Choice, based on the other Reviewers, who'd stated it was "too mild," or "less Flavorful" --though Correct in both counts, they Should've also Said How much Better-Tasting this Subtle Favor imparts to Breakfast, Coffee, Yogurt, even Indian Crock Pot Meals, (in home-made Garan Masala). Additionally, it lasts a Looooong Time. And there are so many Uses for it; I even add it to Reheated Coffee, w/ a touch of the Madagascar Vanilla, and the Coffee Tastes Great again, w/o having its Taste distorted by strong Cinnamon Flavor. When I was running out of it, I bought the Reg. Organic Cinnamon, at the local Store, and Wow! what a surprise in the difference in Flavo! I no longer liked that Cinnamon's Strong smell and taste. If anything, This Subtle Ceylon Cinnamon's Flavor is Highly Desirable, and once tried, you 'll likely never go back to the Stronger-smelling "Fake" cinnamon, (Read the Info on Cinnamon).
Outstanding Ceylon Product

My wife and I use cinnamon in our cereal and coffee very single day. After doing recent research we discovered that the cinnamon we were using was not the most wise choice for daily use. Thats when we began looking up Ceylon. We decided it was the wise thing to do in switching. After looking at numerous websites to buy the product I came across iHerb and felt comfortable enough with the site to at least read the reviews on the product. I was skeptical because of a previous review but I must tell you that the Ceylon we received has earned its place as a product we love, and won't hesitate to buy in the future from iHerb.

I usually order organic ceylon cinnamon from another online merchant, so this is my one experience with Frontier's. I tried it because it was much less expensive than my other brand. It smells and tastes sour, whereas my other cinnamon smells and tastes sweet. This stuff is such a disappointment and departure from my usual brand that I actually ran starch tests on both brands to see if one was lying about their cinnamon being true ceylon, but both passed the test. I suppose that wherever Frontier gets theirs, it's just not as good; maybe too young or a foul-tasting strain. I don't know what else to think, given the expiration on the package says March 2014, which is almost three years away. I'll be switching back to my other brand pronto.
Nice Taste

Seattle >Bars & Clubs > The Cuff Complex
1533 13th Ave, Seattle, WA | Directions 9812247.615082 -122.315666
Daily 2pm-2am
Neighborhoods: Capitol Hill, Broadway
Gotta have money for this place – Went there on Sunday afternoon, spent $60, then went back and they wanted a $5 admission fee. Is this owned by straights who are out to rape gays?
dillon250, every nightclub in Seattle charges a cover on Sunday nights.
Seattle's best gay mens leather bar – I've gone to the other gay bars of Seattle and I've made the Cuff my home bar, followed up by Mad pub. It's a mans bar, where you can go with friends and have a good time. It's not a debutante bar, nor trashy, it's down to earth west coast casual dress/blue collar fun.
Weekends you will find guys in their leather/levi's/harnesses/cowboy/Nasty Pig gear. The dance floor gets hot and heavy by 11pm on the weekends.
Happy hour from 5-8pm m-thurs is great too, half price appetizers, anyone for some pool, beer, and 3 dollar baskets of chicken strips with friends? It's awesome.
To the straight women you are welcome to come, and yes us gays know how to party hardy. But honey don't get out-of-line tapping your stiletto at me thinking you are gonna be treated like a royal princess, it's a guys bar. If it doesn't smell pretty like your powder room at home you don't have to be there and don't complain to us. Go to Pioneer Square or Belltown if you want guys to worship the ground you walk on ladies We'll call you out on your outfit for being last season if you give us attitude, you have no power over us. And if you bring your bf, he should be comfortable with getting hit on by other guys and if he wants to start trouble with it, be prepared to be asked to leave or 86ed.
seattle crappy attitude – The bar was ok the gay men were not
wed 4/28/10 the bars wer dead in seattle ..
I am sure other gay men are getting tired
of the seattle attitude
I seen some liquor control violations at another
bar ..
I f I cannot meet any one at the bars after been going for them for 10 years
I will just becomea spotter for the liquor board
many ways to skin a cat..
mean seattle to ther own gay – Cuff bears rude chase customers out to not come back any more..
Meet more nice men at striaight with this stuff economy
these businesses watch out are barand grill just outside seattle down 40per cent
Get ready to hold your nose! – You have to enter through the bear bar up front. These guys have not had a bath in weeks and are so proud of the stiff smell of bo floting through the front bar. Crowded on sundays but tends to only be patronized by bar flies. Cliques everywhere. People are not approchable. Bartenders serve cheap vodka you will regret the next day. Nice light show that is cheapend by cheap decor and lights on the wall. If you go by yourself, youre on your own. You won't meet any people.
I do love it – I do love this place.People are really cool and very well dress (good sense of fashion ) and very good looking guys .I think it is the best spot of the area specially the bar and dance floor .
Fun mixed "Levi" (not so much Leather) Bar – Sunday T Dance is good, inexpensive drinks all day and in the summer, cheap hamburgers. Mondays have free games. Saturday before 11pm is good after that it's life in a gay sardine can. However you probably won't be drinking very much. $6.25 for a well cocktail is just a bit pricey, on top of $3 cover charge! I still go the Cuff. Its one of the better places. Lots of places to wander around.
Variety is great – This place is a great hangout. The drinks are adequate, beer is cheap. It?s a huge bar, you can really walk around and change it up. The outdoor patio is huge and is a great spot to socialize without trying to shout over the music. The bar shows prOn which is a great distraction for unwanted conversations. Sundays ramp up and this is the spot ? packed and thumping!
Wow, still the best Sundays! – Reading the old reviews, I'd suggest that they revisit the Cuff Complex. I was there on a Sunday recently and the Tea Dance was unbelievably fun. It starts at 4 PM, the DJ had no problems with all the requests I gave him and the format was a combination of 70's 80's 90's AND the current hot dance music over the afternoon and night (til 2AM.) The staff was friendly as were the bartenders. And what a great sound system! Still the best gay bar in Seattle.
All the right stuff ! – i have been going to the Cuff since i moved here and it remains my favorite club. on many occassions i have danced till i dropped. i have checked out all the other clubs in seattle but i always feel most comfortable at the cuff, the men are men and if you just want to cruise, thats cool, or if you strike a conversation with a new friend you can do that easily. i will continue to enjoy the cuff and it will stay on my hot list as long as its around. this club rivals the best in the u.s. , i have been to Ft. Laud, Miami Bch, New York, Atlanta, Key West, Ptown, LA, etc and the Cuff has all the right stuff!

Dr John Scott Haldane, 1860 – 1936. Physiologist. Wearing a diving suit in the company of a German soldier about 1906
On Display PORTRAIT GALLERY
- Scottish Art
The physiologist John Scott Haldane focused his research on the mechanics of breathing, particularly in extreme conditions, such as in sewers, on mountain-tops and down mines (in which he was the first to introduce canaries to test for poisonous gases). He tested his theories by experimenting on himself. Haldane applied his findings to areas of public and industrial health. He developed a method whereby deep-sea divers could resurface and avoid decompression sickness or 'the bends'. In this photograph Haldane poses in profile displaying his diving equipment. His diving experiments for the British Admiralty were carried out in top secret - the presence of the German soldier beside him is a mystery.

Reviews for Bacon-Wrapped Corn(7)
Sort By :
sinfully good. there is some question as to how to make the bacon a little crisper. but beyond that--Why didn't we ever do this before?!!!
It was sooooo good! I will try some of the ideas submitted to get the bacon crisper, though, as I am a crispy bacon lover. The taste was terrific and I will definitely make this again and add it to my "keepers".
What a great combo....We have always enjoyed corn on the grill and this is just another great way to add something new to the BBQ.
I read the other reviews before trying this. I cooked my bacon in the microwave until it was almost done but limp enough to wrap. The corn didn't have to be cooked as long-we like ours better that way. This was superior in taste. As much as we love spicy/hot stuff I cant believe my husband hasn't already thought of this. Keeper.
this is a great way to enjoy corn,i changed it a little to make the bacon crisper,i peeled back the husk+wrapped the bacon onto corn +held it in place with wet tooth picks.then i grilledit till the bacon started to get crisp,then i closed the husk over all and wrapped the corn in foil and grilled for 10 min.came out top of the line for flavor.i seasoned it with onion powder and parsley .everyone went wild over the way it tasted.will continue to try with differant spices .

Moyers & CompanySeries Website »
Episode Guide »
Bill Moyers returns on-air and online in January 2012 with MOYERS & COMPANY, a weekly hour of compelling and vital conversation about life and the state of American democracy, featuring some of the best thinkers of our time. A range of scholars, artists, activists, scientists, philosophers and newsmakers bring context, insight and meaning to important topics. The series occasionally includes Moyers' own timely and penetrating essays on society and government. In a multimedia marketplace saturated with shallow sound bites and partisan name-calling, MOYERS & COMPANY digs deeper. As the Los Angeles Times put it in 2010, "No one on television has centralized the discussion of ideas as much as Moyers... He not only gives a forum to unusual thinkers, he is truly interested in what they have to say and who they are because he believes their ideas really matter. "

First, the worst thing about this glove is the location of the stitching on the thumb. It is right where you grip the handle bar and causes blisters. What were they thinking to put the seam right there??? wow. Another bad thing is that the stitching and material on some of the fingers was crooked and the top mesh piece of the glove would wrap around to the front side of my finger. Both on the left pointer finger and my right pinkie. It was made so bad. It would be a great glove if they had some quality control and moved the location of the thumb seam.Read All Reviews
Austin in CA
I was very unsatisfied with my purchase, only one glove fit right and the other was baggy and had already ripped before even wearing them. Did 5 laps at the track and had to pull of due to how uncomfortable it felt, save your money get yourself some better gloves.Read All Reviews

After many years away from the sport I am trying to back into it for as little cot as possible. This helmet is not only affordable, it fits great and looks awesome too. I recommend this helmet to anyone looking for a cost effective reliable product.Read All Reviews

Hits: Wide variety of dishes available offers something for everyone, including vegetarians.
Misses: Parking is a huge challenge in the neighborhood. Plan to walk or take public transportation.
Always the best Chinese food after midnight! – Especially right after the club this is the best place for grub. Ofcourse who doesn't get the honey walnut prawns it's the bomb!
Tasty Midnight Dining – This restaurant is always packed in the early morning hours and is usually fairly busy during the day. No need for reservations. It's good food, quick service in an economical dining room. I especially like the honey court prawns and salt-and-pepper pork. It's a little grubby, but like most restaurants in the area, well worth the trip. I can't wait to go back.
It's all about the food here – We dined on dim sum here one crowded Sunday (always a good sign) and were pretty satisfied. The Chinese broccoli with oyster sauce, sliced barbecued pork, shiu mai (sp?), sesame seed balls, seafood dumplings, and barbecue pork humbao were excellent. We didn't like the texture of the crab and fish maw soup, but that might be a casualty of our admittedly sometimes-pedestrian tastes (is it a true dim sum feast if we avoid the chicken feet?). The interior is bare and a bit seedy looking but the food makes up for it.
Soooo Good – Everyone has got to try those Honey Court prawns with the walnuts. That is the best thing I have ever had. And the salt and pepper crab is fantastic, too. I love their dim sum, too. Especially the black bean spareribs and the little pork dumplings--siu mai, I think their called. Go and try this place out yourself!
Best after hours joint – I can't think of any other place where I can get salt and pepper crab, chicken chow mein, and mongolian beef this good. Even at 3 in the morning. They're open till 3:30 am on Fri and Sat and 2:30 on Thurdays! We come here after a long night of clubbin' and just chill. This place is usually packed after 1 am. We're not the only ones that agree this is where to go after hours for great food and a relaxing place to hang out.
Most amazing restaurant in the city – I am allergic to a number of things, including corn, which is a problem in Chinese restaurants because they use corn starch in almost everything. The wait person took down all the things I couldn't eat, discussed it with the chef, and they managed to tweak every dish I wanted accordingly. What makes Honey Court great is that they did all this with a smile!! Believe me, that is very hard to come by with as many requests that I have to make. And best of all, the food tasted great. This is not only the best Chinese reastaurant I've ever been to, it is now the only one I go to.
Wow – I took my out-of-town guests there and they were comletely blown away. The food is amazing. My wife and I have made Honey Court a weekly destination. Be it the stunning assortment of dim sum or the dinner menu, you will be impressed. My wife loves the modern look of the place with its red and yellow walls and the orange "sky."
Best Chinese in the city! – Definitely authentic--I grew up in Hong Kong and have been looking for a REAL Chinese restaurant for a while now. My search is finally over. Lots of food for not alot of money. The dim sum is great and those honey walnut prawns are to die for. They were invented here--often imitated but never duplicated. They redecorated with deep reds, oranges and yellows. A very warm, hip, belltown feel now. Much better than the purple ocean thing before. This place gets packed after hours on the weekends but it's open till 3:30am so there's plenty of time to mellow out after a night at the clubs.

This medication is very easy to take but the side effects are serious. I took Riba / interferon / Incivek for Hep C. I had a serious rash for about 2 months. I had horrible anemia and GI side effects the entire time. Had to take anemia treatment starting a few weeks after starting treatment. The treatment worked for me and I remain cured 18 months later - so it was worth it. I'd do it ... Show Full Comment

Ease of Use
I was diagnoised with Hep C (G1)in 2005 and started a 48 wk treatment within 4 months. I took Riboviron and Interferon as well as numerous drugs for the treatment of side affects of the medications. I am now 7 years in remission. The treatment was horrific for me and every week when I saw my doctor I wanted to quit. I'm so thankful for his encouragement to continue the treatment.

Highland teen found dead in Mizzou dormMonday, 14 October 2013 00:48 Published in Local News
It may be a while before anyone knows what killed a Highland, Illinois teen found unresponsive in a friend's dorm room at the University of Missouri Sunday morning.
University Police say emergency crews arrived about 9:00 a.m. to find 18 year old Gregory Holthaus unconscious and not breathing. He was rushed to University Hospital where he was pronounced dead.
Police don't suspect foul play, but a cause of death has not yet been determined. The investigation is ongoing.
Friends and family held a memorial service for Holthaus at the Highland town square Sunday evening.
Aldermen advance tax abatement plan for Union StationFriday, 11 October 2013 04:05 Published in Local News
The same Aldermanic committee that approved developer Paul McKee's TIF deal earlier this week, is also backing a tax abatement for St. Louis' Union Station.
The Housing, Urban Development and Zoning Committee on Thursday approved the 20 year financing plan for Lodging Hospitality Management, which owns the downtown landmark.
LHM is planning a $66 million dollar makeover of the former train station that will convert some retail space into offices, repair the train shed, and add excursion rail service.
The St. Louis Post-Dispatch reports that two special taxing districts, each with a 1-cent sales tax, already cover the station. In addition, the owner is entitled to $3.5 million in sales tax rebates spread over 20 years.
Scott Carpenter, 2nd US astronaut in orbit, diesFriday, 11 October 2013 02:26 Published in National News
DENVER (AP) — Scott Carpenter, the second American to orbit the Earth, was guided by two instincts: overcoming fear and quenching his insatiable curiosity. He pioneered his way into the heights of space and the depths of the ocean floor.
"Conquering of fear is one of life's greatest pleasures and it can be done a lot of different places," he said.
His wife, Patty Barrett, said Carpenter died Thursday in a Denver hospice of complications from a September stroke. Carpenter, who lived in Vail, was 88.
Carpenter followed John Glenn into orbit, and it was Carpenter who gave him the historic sendoff: "Godspeed John Glenn." The two were the last survivors of the famed original Mercury 7 astronauts from the "Right Stuff" days of the early 1960s. Glenn is the only one left alive.
In his one flight, Carpenter missed his landing by 288 miles, leaving a nation on edge for an hour as it watched live and putting Carpenter on the outs with his NASA bosses. So Carpenter found a new place to explore: the ocean floor.
He was the only person who was both an astronaut and an aquanaut, exploring the old ocean and what President John F. Kennedy called "the new ocean" — space.
NASA Administrator Charles Bolden said Thursday that Carpenter "was in the vanguard of our space program — the pioneers who set the tone for our nation's pioneering efforts beyond Earth and accomplished so much for our nation. ... We will miss his passion, his talent and his lifelong commitment to exploration."
Life was an adventure for Carpenter and he said it should be for others: "Every child has got to seek his own destiny. All I can say is that I have had a great time seeking my own."
The launch into space was nerve-racking for the Navy pilot on the morning of May 24, 1962.
"You're looking out at a totally black sky, seeing an altimeter reading of 90,000 feet and realize you are going straight up. And the thought crossed my mind: What am I doing?" Carpenter said 49 years later in a joint lecture with Glenn at the Smithsonian Institution.
For Carpenter, the momentary fear was worth it, he said in 2011: "The view of Mother Earth and the weightlessness is an addictive combination of senses."
For the veteran Navy officer, flying in space or diving to the ocean floor was more than a calling. In 1959, soon after being chosen one of NASA's pioneering seven astronauts, Carpenter wrote about his hopes, concluding: "This is something I would willingly give my life for."
"Curiosity is a thread that goes through all of my activity," he told a NASA historian in 1999. "Satisfying curiosity ranks No. 2 in my book behind conquering a fear."
Even before Carpenter ventured into space, he made history on Feb. 20, 1962, when he gave his Glenn sendoff. It was a spur of the moment phrase, Carpenter later said.
"In those days, speed was magic because that's all that was required ... and nobody had gone that fast," Carpenter explained. "If you can get that speed, you're home-free, and it just occurred to me at the time that I hope you get your speed. Because once that happens, the flight's a success."
Three months later, Carpenter was launched into space from Cape Canaveral, Fla., and completed three orbits around Earth in his space capsule, the Aurora 7, which he named after the celestial event. It was just a coincidence, Carpenter said, that he grew up in Boulder, Colo., on the corner of Aurora Avenue and Seventh Street.
His four hours, 39 minutes and 32 seconds of weightlessness were "the nicest thing that ever happened to me," Carpenter told a NASA historian. "The zero-g sensation and the visual sensation of spaceflight are transcending experiences and I wish everybody could have them."
His trip led to many discoveries about spacecraft navigation and space itself, such as that space offers almost no resistance, which he found out by trailing a balloon. Carpenter said astronauts in the Mercury program found most of their motivation from the space race with the Russians. When he completed his orbit of the Earth, he said he thought: "Hooray, we're tied with the Soviets," who had completed two manned orbits at that time.
Things started to go wrong on re-entry. He was low on fuel and a key instrument that tells the pilot which way the capsule is pointing malfunctioned, forcing Carpenter to manually take over control of the landing.
NASA's Mission Control then announced that he would overshoot his landing zone by more than 200 miles and, worse, they had lost contact with him.
Talking to a suddenly solemn nation, CBS newsman Walter Cronkite said, "We may have ... lost an astronaut."
Carpenter survived the landing that day.
Always cool under pressure — his heart rate never went above 105 during the flight — he oriented himself by simply peering out the space capsule's window. The Navy found him in the Caribbean, floating in his life raft with his feet propped up. He offered up some of his space rations.
Carpenter's perceived nonchalance didn't sit well some with NASA officials, particularly flight director Chris Kraft. The two feuded about it from then on.
Kraft accused Carpenter of being distracted and behind schedule, as well as making poor decisions. He blamed Carpenter for the low fuel.
On his website, Carpenter acknowledged that he didn't shut off a switch at the right time, doubling fuel loss. Still, Carpenter in his 2003 memoir said, "I think the data shows that the machine failed."
In the 1962 book "We Seven," written by the first seven astronauts, Carpenter wrote about his thoughts while waiting to be picked up after splashing down.
"I sat for a long time just thinking about what I'd been through. I couldn't believe it had all happened. It had been a tremendous experience, and though I could not ever really share it with anyone, I looked forward to telling others as much about it as I could. I had made mistakes and some things had gone wrong. But I hoped that other men could learn from my experiences. I felt that the flight was a success, and I was proud of that."
One of 110 candidates to be the nation's first astronauts, Carpenter became an instant celebrity in 1959 when he was chosen as a Mercury astronaut. The Mercury 7 were Carpenter, Glenn, L. Gordon Cooper Jr., Virgil I. "Gus" Grissom, Walter M. Schirra Jr., Alan B. Shepard Jr., and Donald K. "Deke" Slayton.
Like his colleagues, Carpenter basked in lavish attention and public rewards, but it wasn't exactly easy. The astronauts were subjected to grueling medical tests — keeping their feet in cold water, rapid spinning and tumbling and open-ended psychological quizzes. He had to endure forces 16 times gravity in his tests, far more than in space, something he said he managed with "great difficulty."
"It was the most exciting period of my life," he said.
Carpenter never did go back in space, but his explorations continued. In 1965, he spent 30 days under the ocean off the coast of California as part of the Navy's SeaLab II program.
"I wanted, No. 1, to learn about it (the ocean), but No. 2, I wanted to get rid of what was an unreasoned fear of the deep water," Carpenter told the NASA historian.
Inspired by Jacques Cousteau, Carpenter worked with the Navy to bring some of NASA's training and technology to the sea floor. A broken arm kept him out of the first SeaLab, but he made the second in 1965. The 57-by-12-foot habitat was lowered to a depth of 205 feet off San Diego. A bottlenose dolphin named Tuffy ferried supplies from the surface to the aquanauts below.
"SeaLab was an apartment but it was very crowded. Ten men lived inside. We worked very hard. We slept very little," Carpenter recalled in a 1969 interview. Years later, he said he actually preferred his experience on the ocean floor to his time in space.
"In the overall scheme of things, it's the underdog in terms of funding and public interest," he said. "They're both very important explorations. One is much more glorious than the other. Both have tremendous potential."
After another stint at NASA in the mid-1960s, helping develop the Apollo lunar lander, Carpenter returned to the SeaLab program as director of aquanaut operations for SeaLab III.
He retired from the Navy in 1969, founded his company Sea Sciences Inc., worked closely with Cousteau and dove in most of the world's oceans, including under the ice in the Arctic.
When the 77-year-old Glenn returned to orbit in 1998 aboard space shuttle Discovery, Carpenter radioed: "Good luck, have a safe flight and ... once again, Godspeed, John Glenn."
Malcolm Scott Carpenter was born May 1, 1925, in Boulder, Colo. (He hated his first name and didn't use it). He was raised by his maternal grandparents after his mother became ill with tuberculosis.
He attended the University of Colorado for one semester, joined the Navy during World War II, and returned to school but didn't graduate because he flunked out of a class on heat transfer his senior year. The school eventually awarded him a bachelor's degree in aeronautical engineering in 1962 after he orbited the Earth.
He rejoined the Navy in 1949 and was a fighter and test pilot in the Pacific and served as intelligence officer.
He married four times and had eight children, including two that have died. A daughter helped him write his memoir, "For Spacious Skies: The Uncommon Journey of a Mercury Astronaut." He also wrote two novels: "The Steel Albatross" and "Deep Flight." In addition to his children, he is survived by his wife, Patty Barrett.
A public funeral and memorial are planned for later this month in Boulder, Barrett said. She didn't have further details.
Carpenter earned numerous awards and honorary degrees. Carpenter said that he joined the Mercury program for many reasons: "One of them, quite frankly, is that it is a chance for immortality. Most men never have a chance for immortality."
Borenstein reported from Washington.
