Yum, I usually use a little tarragon instead of thyme and it's just as yummy. I usually have this as a side dish for dinner but happily as a main for lunch!
Scalloped Potato Gratin
Inspiration: Potato dishes are a big deal around the holidays or in the winter time, aren't they? Mashed potatoes, sweet potatoes, casseroles….they're really just comfort food at its finest. And that's about all that I need to say about that, right?
What We Loved: This may be the best potato dish that we've ever eaten. It had all of the components that we look for when it comes to potatoes and comfort food – an awesome creamy consistency and texture; crispy browned cheese on top and gooey, nutty cheese throughout; and the warm, spicy hit of nutmeg that just complements potatoes so well. All in all, this recipe was a perfectly rich combination of textures and flavors that reminded us of the potatoes that our favorite fancy restaurant serves – but better.
Tips: This dish is simple, elegant, absolutely delicious, and the definition of comfort food. It would make a great dish for company or for a special occasion. We originally made these potatoes for Thanksgiving, and I don't think that a Thanksgiving will go by for us in the future without them making an appearance on our table. If you have any holiday celebrations coming up for which you are still planning your menu, I'd highly recommend this recipe to share with your loved ones. We celebrate Christmas and won't be back until some time before the new year, so we wish you all a week or so of warm & cozy eating :)
Scalloped Potato Gratin
Source: Slightly adapted from Tyler Florence
1 1/2 cups heavy cream
1 sprig thyme
2 cloves garlic, minced
1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg
2 lbs Russet potatoes, peeled and cut into 1/8 inch slices (this was three medium-sized potatoes for me)
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
About 1 cup freshly grated Parmesan
1. Heat the cream, thyme, garlic, and nutmeg in a saucepan over low heat until warm.
2. Butter a casserole dish. Add a layer of potatoes in an overlapping pattern. Season with salt and pepper. Remove the thyme sprig from the cream. Pour 1/3 of the cream over the first potato layer, then add 1/3 of the cheese. Repeat with two more layers.
3. Bake uncovered at 375 degrees F for 45 minutes or until the casserole is nicely browned and bubbly. Let rest about 10 minutes before serving.

Pingback: Thursday 122012
Last week I found your website through Google Images. I was trying to figure out what Carne Guisada looked like, and found your Carne Guisada image.
Once I was on your website, I was hooked! I've already made Pickled Red Onions, Carnitas (I agree with you, these are the best), Spaghetti Squash Gratin, and Butternut Squash and Poblano Gratin. All the recipes are fantastic and have been a huge hit with my husband and three kids! They are all keepers!
Tonight I'm making your Mushroom, Sweet Potato and Gouda Chowder. I'm so giddy.
The Mushroom, Sweet Potato, & Gouda Chowder was amazing!!!! I've never had anything quite like it. Everyone loved it and there were not any leftovers. Next time I think I'll double it so I can have some leftovers. The recipe is definitely a keeper. Thank you so much!

Hidden Gem – Under new management, the menu has both traditional and fresh, new options with seasonal changes. All of the soups are home made and have wonderful flavor. Be adventurous - try them - you'll like them. Salads are always crisp and fresh with freshly blended dressing.
The Dover Sole was wonderfully prepared, and served tableside. My husband and I have tried the Fallow(sp?) Deer, Filet Mignon, Lamb, quail, and duck prepared a couple of ways and loved it all. Side veggies are always fresh, beautifully presented and an excellent complement to the main entree.
The chef is gifted with preparing his sauces, providing that authentic French flavor. You won't want to leave a drop behind. (The white bread is fresh and hot and no overwhelming flavor.)
For us, it was just the right amount of food - it's nice to be able to try all of the courses. The creme brulee and chocolate souffle are my favorite desserts.
Service is friendly and attentive. They do not rush you at all. My husband told the maitre d' we were celebrating my birthday and the table was prepared in advance with red rose petals. Very nice touch.
Haute cuisine with French flair in a room that evokes a Parisian feel.
– The Scene
Tucked away from the bustle of downtown, this little gem has become a Richmond tradition. Emerald green walls, textured wallpapers, mirrors and ornate wall sconces all evoke a fine Parisian dining experience. The space is smartly divided so that every table becomes a romantic destination. The waitstaff provides excellent service and diners are made to feel like an old friend of chef/owner Paul Ebling.
The Food
The traditional French cuisine is highly refined and includes such standbys as unctuous lobster bisque, a rack of lamb with veal reduction, and fresh Dover sole amandine. Desserts make the most of seasonal ingredients such as freshly picked strawberries and blackberries in a sabayon, a French culinary treat for the senses. The wine list includes a small, but consistently strong offering of American and French labels with a special emphasis on Alsatian whites.

hairs in the food – my husband and I went to shila for dinner, and the food inside the restaurant was decent, so we order a plate to go, but guess what when we reach home the food had a long red(blond) hair inside of it, my husband was disappointed about it, and i decide to call the restaurant and to my surprise the person that attend the phone didn't even sound surprise or bother by that, basically he just said: oh ok I will tell the owner
Good experience – I was there on a week night when there were only about 6 tables full. The service was a bit slow to get started (about 5 minutes for my order drink order to be taken) but it was smooth sailing after that. The waiter was attentive and polite and the food came very fast and it was very good. I was in an out in less than one hour. Although I had a big beer, an appetizer, a main dish and dessert, the bill was only $40. Very reasonable, very good and very inexpensive.
Okay food, Bad service – They are rascist. They charge white people for extra rice but they don't charge Koreans. They should treat everyone fairly.
Avoid is possible – My friends and I were in Harvard square and had planned to go to another restaurant but unfortunately it was closed. We saw a sign for Shilla and decided to give it a try. After going into the basement of the same building that holds Staples we found it. We were seated promptly and then ordered, I ordered the chicken cutlet. After maybe 10 minutes we got our main courses. The service is nice and quick but very annoying. Every few minutes a waiter would come to our table to ask us how things were going and take away dirty dishes. The chicken cutlet was average but my friend's chicken teriyaki was bland. The chef had obviously just fried a chicken breast and poured a bottle of teriyaki sauce over it. Later a friend of the waiters came and started talking and laughing very loudly with them. Anyway don't go here if you want good sushi or asian food.
Serviceable Asian fare undermined by lightning-fast, impersonal and inconsistent service. – The Scene
The venue has a comfortable Korean deco feel, but the kitchen turns things out too quickly. No sooner are the miso bowls raised to the lips than the main dishes begin to arrive. Prices are comparable to other Korean spots in Boston, but some of the little touches--like the bibim-bap (ground meat, shredded vegetables and fried egg) being tossed tableside--are missing, despite promises on the menu.
The Food
A lot of Korean dishes, some common Japanese items, and a broad selection of sushi and sashimi. So if you're in the Square and have a hankering for kimchi (piquant fermented cabbage), bolgaki (hot spiced beef strips) or bokeum (stir-fried pork in garlic sauce), it's probably your best bet. If you want sushi and sashimi made to order, choose from the sushi menu or sit at the sushi bar; the main dish combo plates appear pre-made and are a little flat.
Just Okay – This is not the place to go if you're looking for authentic, quality Korean food. But if you don't have the time or energy to go to some of the better Korean restaurants in Union Square (Somerville) and Boston, Shilla is acceptable. The hostess/manager is not the friendliest and in fact, I am not the only Asian person who has noticed that she is much nicer to non-Asian patrons (i.e. she sucks up to them). The lighting is nice, though.
Excellent Restaurant... – I am confused by what other people have to say about this restaurant. I have been to it several times, and I have only received excellent food and good service. In Korean restaurants, for service, you just call out what you want to the servers, they'll immediately respond. Just waiting around for something won't get you it. People were very friendly. The food was prepared in almost no time. It was incredible.
With the soup, a rice bowl is given with an array of different small plates of various pickled veggies or roots. They promptly filled up empty plates and always responded when called on.
As for the poor English by the manager (mentioned by another reviewer)? The English was excellent. I will absolutely go there again.
Terrible service and sushi – We had sushi and several Korean dishes at Shilla's. The sushi did not look or smell fresh. When one of us requested to send back one of her sushi orders due it tasting poorly, the waitress began explaining to us that if we send it back, she will have to pay for it. It took us 3 tries to speak to the manager who several times told us not to bother the waitress because she is too busy and reminded us once again that the waitress would have to pay for whatever we sent back. TERRIBLE SERVICE AND BAD SUSHI.
Why do the owner still keep the manager? – She is the most terrible manager We've ever seen. Finally, we decided not to go again since the last friday dinner as long as she works there. Here is the story. As soon as we got the table, she tried to get order from us even we didn't open the menu. So, we asked her a few questions, and she tried to explain the Korean food in HER OWN English which we didn't understand at all. (Finally, We got some ideas from a patient waiter) The dinner and the service was excellent until she put our bill on the table before we finished eating, and pushed us to go out to get a new table for other customers, and then she chased us to ask WHY WE DID 5% TIPPING. It was amazing experience. I don't know why the owner still keeps her. She hurts the restaurent a lot!!
Where is the service? – I went with a Korean friend, so we ordered their "Bi bim bop." I have had better bi bim bop elsewhere, but this one is still good. We went on a Monday afternoon, and there were only 4 tables occupied. Great, I thought to myself, that means we should have really good service. Unfortunately, no. After delivering the entrees, the service never came again, not even to refill our water.

I'm on my fourth tube of this stuff. I was skeptical at first and because I thought that perhaps it was just a regular white clay mask and maybe it is, but for my skin, it's great. The texture of the clay itself is smooth and silky and very easily spreadable. You don't need much (i.e. your face doesn't need to look like it's covered in whipped cream) but I put mine on maybe 2x per week after using the Olay Microdermabrasion kit and my skin is amazingly soft and silky with a uniform matte texture glow afterwards. I think it's just the combination of factors for me that makes this mask work so well. I would say that I don't use it to control oil- white clay or any kind of clay is absorbent but for me it just gives a very lovely luminous look to my skin that I find it worth shelling out 39 euros for once a year, at least.

i truly recomend this product i have oily and acne prone skin and this reduce my pimples and left my skin super soft i wouldn't mind to buy again this product even though is way to expensive for my budget
This product claim to lift dirt and oil from clog pores. Whenever I used this I end up getting a few whitehead. Maybe it's because the dirt and oil was suppose to
Wash off, but to me the reason the whitehead appear is the because it cleaning out the pore while reducing pore size. This is probably why the dirt and oil rise upward trying to rid itself but the pore surface is decrease in size Therefore causing it to block up as whitehead and become inflame by morning. This is my experience. I tried exfoliating before applying the mask and tried it other different way too. Still end up with whitehead in a few places.

I love this mask! I honestly use it every morning during the school week and it leaves my skin refreshed, moisturized and smooth. It leaves a nice clean base for makeup application and lasts a long time. You definitely don't need that much product per application so this little tube is still a good price for the amount of product you get.

LOVE this mask! Definitely my favorite so far. I feel so clean and refreshed after I use it. My skin is sooooo smooth. Doesn't irritate my moderate occasional acne either, in fact, I think it helps it!

I was using the Clarins clay mask when unhappy with that product, I decided to invest in something else. I am not a Lancome fan but wanted to try their eau micellaire MU remover, so I decided to head for their concession at Harrods. I saw this mask and also decided to give it a try without giving it at thought. All I have to say this is an amazing mask for combo skin. MY HG!!! It is 30 UK pounds here, a lot more than the 18 I paid for the Clarins mask, yet it is worth every penny. First of all, it doesn't feel tingly like the Clarins one, which I suspect had more alcohol in it. This goes onto my skin smoothly, makes it tighter but above all, really leaves the skin feeling clean, refreshed and very well moisturised, which is unthinkable for a purifying mask. After applying it you do see a difference on your skin: it does feel whiter, paler, cleaner and very very soft - baby soft...I recommend it.
LOVE this mask, a bit pricey, BUT it lasts FOREVER !! It's actually a great buy when you think about how long the tube lasts. You only need a dime size amount to cover your face thinly. That's all you need. I have had a tube for a long time, and am just now coming to the end.
It cleans your skin and it does the job in only five minutes. Don't leave it on any longer than that. Maybe that's why some people complain it's drying. Great product. So is the hydrating mask by Lancome. I love using it in the winter when my skin can get dry from the winter cold. I ran out though ! Gotta get more, but this Empreinte I can't wait for !
WAY too drying for my skin
it felt really nice at first, but I woke up the next morning and my face was like.. peeling :/ glad I only had a sample!
I'm sure it's a lovely clay mask if your skin can handle it though!
1 out of 1 people found this review helpful. Did you? Yes No
let's say this is the only purifying mask that doesn't irritate my skin........i've tried alot of clay mask on the market......and this is the only one that doesn't dry my skin out liked crazy or make me break out more severely the next few days........because i have really thin skin......a lot of cleansing masks are too strong that burned my face...........so i'm very likely to stick with this one for a long long time...........UPDATE: there are so many clay masks on the market.......after i'm done for the first tube and want to buy a new one, i can't believe i paid 50 something dollars for this mask.......and just to let everyone know, this product is being discontinued so sooner or later i need to look for a new one anywayz..........
I bought this after stumbling on a rave by Andy Paige, who has a beauty blog. (Andy was once on a reality show called Starting Over.) She stated this mask was similar to a facial with extractions, that it works on blackheads and pores. I found it for about $18 on a discount cosmetics website. I don't have blackheads, but I do get clogged pores on my nose.
I've used this twice; once for five minutes and once where I left it on for several hours. Sadly, it did nothing for my clogged pores, except to temporarily make them appear a bit smaller. The gunk is still in there (back to my Biore strips). However, this mask does offer a temporary mattifying effect. I was less shiny on my nose for about a day after I used the mask. Since it's too drying for my winter skin, I will limit its use to my nose before big meetings and events during the cold months, then use it more frequently in the summer.
I doubt I will purchase again.

Raleigh >Food & Dining > Mecca Restaurant
13 E Martin St, Raleigh, NC | Directions 2760135.777026 -78.638637
Fri-Sat: 7:30am-2pm, Mon-Thu: 7:30am-12am
Neighborhoods: Central
I agree with ru4real!! ( Bad Overall Quality) – Me and my girlfriend ate there for the first time last night and i was extremely displeased all around. Cleanliness, food quality and service were obviously not high priorties for the dinner staff of Mecca. However, i did over hear one of the servers say to another customer that there was a whole other staff at lunch, so i might be willing to try lunch there someday. I will say it will not be anytime soon, i guess i developed sort of a taste aversion to Mecca's after last nights experience.
Great place for lunch, one of the best in Raleigh! – I love the Mecca. I have been eating there for years and it's always the same friendly staff. They have plenty of seating with a counter and booths. I have only been there for dinner once but it's a great place to go for lunch; I recommend the spaghetti.
Bad Overall Quality – After going to mecca for over 7 years I have now found the food quality has deteriated. The staff seems friendly and knowledgable. The owner seems hostel and not too concerned with making the customer happy so that they will return. I took a colleage there last week. All he wanted was a hamburger, fries & a coke. I ordered a vegi plate & tea.When his order comes he gets 10 fries??! Then when they want to charge him full price for a half class refill ??. Not to mention the place is so dirty I'm amazed it passed inspection.
Dishing out American diner classics since 1930. – In Short
Its vertical neon marquee might suggest Vegas rather than Raleigh, but don't be fooled--plenty of Southern agendas have been set at this restaurant, only a conversation away from the state Capitol. A long narrow corridor flanked by dark wooden booths and a bright-red soda fountain, the Mecca is a combination of classic diner kitsch and original art nouveau excellence. Stop in here for breakfast, a business lunch or a quick cup of coffee.

Anthony, whose new book, "Death is a Crapshoot — A Hank Faro Mystery," recently was launched on Amazon, will read excerpts from the work, set in Reno of the 1950s and features a gritty private investigator. She will also speak of her early experiences in Nevada's legendary gambling town that led to the writing of the book, which contains first-hand accounts of such well-known Nevada luminaries as "Pappy" Smith of Harold's, Lincoln Fitzgerald at the Nevada Club and Bill Harrah at Harrah's. Anthony will be joined by renowned Nevada historian Phil Earl, who will talk about gambling in Reno from its beginnings through the infamous Kefauver hearings on mafia involvement in Nevada in the late 1950s in Las Vegas. A question and answer session will follow.
"Phil Earl was curator at the Nevada Historical Society for nearly 30 years until he retired in 1999, and he truly knows the stories that bring the state alive for us history buffs," said Anthony, who dedicated her book to the historical society staff for their research assistance on the mystery series.
Earl received his master's degree in history from the University of Nevada, Reno and is author of "This was Nevada," a syndicated popular history series. He has also written several publications on the place of history in secondary education curriculum, and has consulted and done production for the History Channel and Discovery Productions as well as several motion pictures in Nevada.
Anthony is a retired family therapist who wrote her first book, "Jung's Circle of Women: The Valkyries," about the women she encountered during her studies at the C.G. Jung Institute in Zurich. She is also a novelist, poet and playwright and has taught extensively on mythology, dreams and issues of creative exploration, including at Esalen Institute and the University of California, San Francisco.

The thing I've been dreading has happened, and I got assigned to a couple of titles with scanlations floating around. I'm kind of a non-confrontational person, and I'm betting a lot of other internet folks are too. Does anyone want to write up a primer or offer some tips on writing polite take-down requests? Advice on dealing with the different players (scanlation groups, file hosts, blog hosts, and *gulp* manga aggregators) would be appreciated as well.
I reviewed the DMG webcast from 12-16-2011: Protect Your Work! The discussion lasts from about 13:30 to 18:00, and is mostly very general instructions. Heavily paraphrased:
Ben from then (lol ) says to approach uploaders as fellow fans. "Hey, we all love this mangaka, so let's see that they get some compensation for their work." Give out links to the legit release. Really publicize the heck out of the releases.*
Guild members can't send formal Cease and Desist letters because we don't have the legal authority/rights to the titles. If infringement persists, contact DMG and they'll do what they can.
*What if we're contacting people about books that DMG hasn't released yet? Should we wait until the legit version is available?

The outpouring of support, respect and admiration for Mark Pearlstein has been overwhelming. Mark's passing is a great loss to Levenfeld Pearlstein LLC and to the community association industry at large. Mark had been my law partner for nearly 10 years, and it is my honor to pay homage to his legacy by writing Condo Adviser.

Q: I am an owner of a condominium unit in a 72-unit building. We recently had elections to fill three board vacancies; I was one of the candidates. I have asked our building manager how many votes each candidate received, and she replied that this is privileged information and cannot be released to residents. Is this true?
A: The property manager is incorrect that ballots and proxies (how each unit owner voted) are privileged and cannot be released to unit owners unless the board has properly adopted secret ballot rules and the election was held via secret ballot. Pursuant to Section 19(a)(8) of the Condominium Act, unit owners are entitled to review the ballots and proxies from board elections within the preceding 12 months upon stating a proper purpose. The association has 30 days to make available to the unit owner the requested ballots and proxies. But condominium associations are not required to deliver to each unit owner or board candidate a summary of how each unit owner voted.

Q: I live in a large nongated, resort/golf community association in northern Illinois. To protect "the beauty of our night sky," there are physical limitations and controls on exterior lighting that involve the type of fixture and wattage of bulb, etc., to which I comply. Among many other individuals, I recently received a letter from our association that informed me that my property is "not in compliance" with the requirements for exterior lighting. The reason, "The driveway lights on your home are being left on all night and all-night outside illumination, other than approved solar lighting, is not permitted." Does a board have the authority to tell the property owners when they can, and can't, have their outside lights on, and if so, what gives them that authority?
A: The board may regulate exterior lights and other architectural aspects of the community along with the general administration of the association. Boards of community associations derive their authority through the association's declaration of covenants, which includes the right to adopt reasonable rules and regulations relating to the administration of the property. Additionally, most community association declarations also contain architectural restrictions in the declaration of covenants, which usually grant the board vast rights to enforce the architectural restrictions. Lastly, community associations are also governed by the Illinois Common Interest Community Association Act.
Q: I live in a condominium association. The association board holds its meetings monthly. I do not receive any correspondences regarding what occurred in the meetings. Is the association required to send unit owners the minutes from board meetings?
A: It is a best practice for condominium boards to distribute board meeting minutes to the unit owners once approved, but the board is not required to proactively send the minutes or a meeting summary to the unit owners. However, pursuant to Section 19 of the Condominium Act, the association must maintain minutes of all board and unit owner meetings for seven years and make them available upon written request by a unit owner. If the board will not send you the minutes, you may submit a written request to the board and are entitled to receive a copy of them.

I have taken this red yeast rice preparation for over two years. Taking a natural cholesterol lowering supplement over prescription meds seems to me to be the right way to go. The side effects of many of these cholesterol lowering medications are quite severe and I would rather go the natural route any day. This formulary which incorporates Policosanol, Pantethine and plant sterols in conjunction with red yeast rice and CoQ10 seems to be a perfect balance in lowering LDL numbers. I highly recommend this product to those who have high cholesterol.

Cool, just started using rails and was frustrated with date input. Thanks for this post!
Hi Balaji
Are you saying that your select option for years only goes as far as 1971? If so, is the date currently selected 1976? If this is what's happening it's because Rails defaults to a five-year 'radius' around the current year in date_select.
You can work around this by adding the :start_year option. Something like this:
(Date.today.year -75) %>
This would show a range of years for selection between 1933 and 2013 (five years into the future). But this might not quite be what you want, because the dates would be displayed in ascending order from 1933. You want the dates in descending order. And you know that none of your employees will be under 15, so you can omit the most recent years. This is how you'd do it:
(Date.today.year - 15), :end_year => (Date.today.year - 75) %>
Or you could avoid all these issues and make life a lot easier for your users with Nathaniel Brown's Datetime Toolbocks. Check it out at http://datetime.toolbocks.com/
I am using date_select for one of my form , i having an issue with it i am not able to update to a date prior to 1971 ( year ) , is there any patch available for this.
I am using ruby - 1.8.6 rails - 1.2.6

A couple of weeks ago, I wrote about the International Travelers Bill of Rights, proposed bipartisan legislation that would require online travel agencies to disclose information about the potential health and safety risks of overseas vacation destinations marketed on their sites. A week earlier, I covered the aggressive new tarmac-delay laws included in the Federal Aviation Administration reauthorization bill.

The Airline Passenger BASICS Act would force air carriers to let passengers check one bag within weight limits at no extra charge and would guarantee certain minimum standards for passengers, such as access to free drinking water and bathroom facilities as well as the right to carry on bags and personal items for no fee.
"When an airline advertises a flight, that is how much it should cost, plain and simple," Landrieu said in a prepared statement. "Passengers should not be charged additional fees for checked or carry-on baggage, drinkable water or other reasonable requests. Air travel can be a stressful experience for many reasons, but unfair fees for basic amenities should not be one of them."
Have our elected representatives decided that travelers, and particularly airline passengers, need special protections?
Before I get to the answer, I should disclose my bias: As a consumer advocate, I of course think that all travelers are entitled to a certain level of protection. As I've noted in the past, I'm deeply conflicted about the latest crop of consumer protection laws, flawed as they are. A little voice in my head says that a bad law is better than no law, and that voice won't go away. But let's take a closer look at the Landrieu bill.
If the fact that the government would tell a business to give something away for free doesn't set off a few alarms, a little basic math should. The airline industry collected $3.9 billion in checked baggage fees in 2008 and 2009, according to Landrieu. The Transportation Department reports the figure as $1.6 billion for the first half of 2011.
It's difficult to say what percentage of those fees came from the first checked bag, but it's far easier to conclude that without these fees, the airline industry -- with the possible exceptions of JetBlue Airways and Southwest Airlines -- would be in serious trouble.
North American airlines are struggling this year, according to the International Air Transport Association, a trade group. It predicts that rising fuel prices and the pressure of operating an older and less fuel-efficient fleet will lower profits to just $1.2 billion for the year, down from $4.1 billion in 2010.
"Without the bag fees," says Michael Miller, a vice president at the American Aviation Institute, "most airlines would be in bankruptcy."
Airlines for America, which represents most of the major U.S. carriers, says consumers will also lose if Landrieu's bill becomes law. "Government regulation of pricing is a 30-year step backward to when customers paid more and had fewer choices," says Steve Lott, a spokesman for the group. "Consumers have been the big winners from airline deregulation."
Although Lott dismisses the bill as a holiday stunt, the frustration that led to its introduction is without a doubt genuine. You don't have to be one of Landrieu's constituents to be frustrated by luggage fees, but it helps. Delta Air Lines, which has a strong presence in Louisiana, is also one of the most aggressive about charging baggage fees. It collected $424 million in fees in the first half of 2011, according to the government -- $130 million more than the No. 2 airline, American.
I checked with the senator's office about the bill, and although a representative declined to address the little revenue problem that the proposed law might create, she said Landrieu expects "strong support" from the public and other members of Congress.
In other words, it's no holiday stunt.
But it isn't the baggage fees per se that have upset passengers. It's the poor or nondisclosure of these and other surcharges in the past that has often left air travelers standing at the ticket counter, surprised at having to pay more for their trip. In one remarkable case, a San Francisco passenger named Teri Weissinger spent eight days at the airport because she didn't know about, and couldn't afford, the luggage fees for her flight.
Federal regulators are working to fix that. A new rule already in effect forces airlines to disclose optional fees prominently online, so anyone complaining about them probably isn't looking at their computer screen carefully. Just in case, though, starting Jan. 24, a new regulation will require all taxes and fees to be included in advertised fares and force airlines to disclose baggage fees when passengers book a flight; this will probably address most of the baggage fee concerns without also bankrupting the entire domestic airline industry.
The same is true for the tarmac-delay provisions in the FAA bill. Brand-new regulations have already practically eliminated the problem of lengthy ground delays. A new law is probably unnecessary.
So what is needed? I'm reminded of my interview with Nancy Midlock, whose young son died in a tragic accident at an all-inclusive hotel in Mexico in 2003, and whose efforts led to the introduction of the International Travelers Bill of Rights. I can't imagine what it's like to lose a child the way she did, and I certainly can't blame her for trying to create a law that might prevent another senseless death.
Midlock created a website (www.brentmidlock.com) that has received virtually no attention in the debate about the bill, which is too bad. I think it achieves more than any law could: warning travelers to Mexico about the health risks they might face there.
My point is, informed travelers don't get scammed by airlines. Their children are far less likely to get sucked into an underwater drainage pipe at a Mexican resort. And in a world where airlines, airports and passengers have access to good information, no one needs to be stranded on the tarmac. Ever.
You and I may not be able to stop the questionable consumer laws our representatives are considering. But we don't have to exhibit the questionable consumer behavior that gives some of these bills their momentum.

Collins, Director of Mathematics Programs at Lesley, wins 2013 Nadine Bezuk Excellence in Leadership and Service in Mathematics Teacher Education Award
Friday, May 31, 2013
The Association of Mathematics Teacher Educators (AMTE) honored Collins with the 2013 Nadine Bezuk Excellence in Leadership and Service in Mathematics Teacher Education Award for her significant contributions to the mathematics education field and professional organizations.
As director of the Lesley's Center for Mathematics Achievement, Collins' professional development programs in underperforming urban districts have directly improved student achievement on state assessments, and she has received over $8 million in grant funding to support these research-based initiatives, influencing the teaching of mathematics in many communities.
"My whole forte is how to unpack mathematics in a way that makes it easy for students to understand and relate the concepts they're learning in math to other areas of their life," said Collins.
Through Lesley's Center for Mathematics Achievement, Collins reaches out to school districts across Massachusetts to provide professional development to teachers, and to offer grant-funded master's degrees for K-8 teachers.
In Springfield, for example, the program has already graduated 44 teachers with a master's degree in math education, and 12 have earned initial licensure. And evidence to support the program continues to grow.
"In Revere, we first started out eight years ago. After three years, the city noticed MCAS scores for students who had teachers in our programs were outperforming their counterparts on the state MCAS," said Collins. "So since then, Revere has brought us back every year to work with new teachers or those who don't have licensure."
An inductee into the Massachusetts Mathematics Educators Hall of Fame, Collins believes teachers who truly understand and embrace mathematical concepts will translate that understanding and excitement to their students.
"Most of teachers we work with learn math through wrote memorizations of algorithms without an understanding of how they're applied," said Collins. "We unpack those algorithms so teachers understand where they came from. Our work focuses on developing concrete and pictorial representations of ideas in math, and we work through them through investigations so teachers have that 'Aha moment.'"
The AMTE's Excellence in Leadership Award also hails Collins' contributions to the mathematics education field and professional organizations. A founding member of the board of the Massachusetts Mathematics Association of Teacher Educators, Collins has served as past president of state and regional mathematics teacher associations and on the National Council of Teachers of Mathematics Board of Directors.
Through her work with professional organizations, Collins presents on a host of strategies for teachers to teach difficult concepts with understanding.
She presented at the Algebra Readiness Institute in Atlanta last summer, and spoke at the annual National Council of Teachers of Mathematics conference in Denver. She spent 10 days in Seoul, Korea last summer at the International Congress on Mathematical Education, working on formative assessment, which was a "wonderful experience," she said.
Collins began her career as an elementary school teacher, and then took a break to raise her children. She later went back to college and got her math degree, teaching high school and middle school math for 15 years before going on to become math coordinator for the Massachusetts Department of Elementary and Secondary Education. She then worked at Boston College funded by grants from the Raytheon Company and the Noyce Foundation to provide professional development for teachers implementing the Connected Math project, and she has worked at Lesley for the past eight years.
"I've had tremendous support from my colleagues at Lesley," said Collins. "We've got an amazing math department, and with their support, I've been able to do all of this."
Collins believes one of the key tenets of Lesley's success is the work on the ground in schools, collaborating hand-in-hand with teachers.
"We are definitely at the cutting edge," Collins asserted. "What sets us apart from everyone else, in addition to the way we teach math to undergraduates and graduates, is our work in the districts. And during the time we're not meeting with teachers, they have homework to do and we support them through our online environment at Lesley, which is really powerful."
Collins, who lives in Hanover, holds a Ph.D. from Boston College; a C.A.G.S. from Harvard University; an M.A. from Cambridge College; a B.A. from Westfield State University; and a B.S. Framingham State University.
