Steamed Eggs (Kai Meung)
Total Time
Prep 5 mins
Cook 12 mins
I found this interesting idea in the book Thai Food by David Thompson. The author suggests steaming for 10 minutes for a slightly soft yolk, but as I desired a firmer yolk steamed for 12 minutes and let them cool at room temperature for a while. David is right that they are more tender than a boiled egg, not a huge difference but these are just that subtly bit better than a boiled egg. Well worth a try for anything where you would otherwise use a boiled egg.
Ingredients Nutrition
- Prepare a steamer over relatively high heat so you are getting plenty of steam.
- If eggs have been refrigerated leave them out a while until they reach room temperature.
- Steam eggs for 12 minutes.
- Allow to cool. I left at room temperature for 15 minutes or so and run under a little cold water just before cracking / peeling.

I was nervous doing my eggs this way and could forsee myself having an eggy mess but not so. I used a metal steamer as I don't have a bamboo one. I did bring the eggs to room temp before steaming and then waited out 20 minutes prior to peeling and all the shells came away really easily.
I love this technique for hard cooked eggs. So easy and the eggs were much easier to peel. I cooked six eggs (three of them I bought two weeks ago and three were fresh). I put them in my bamboo steamer and steamed them for 14 minutes. To my delight, I found that the fresh eggs peeled as easily as the older eggs. Normally when I hard boil fresh eggs I end up peeling small chunks off of the egg. They don't look very appetizing and it is very frustrating peeling them. After steaming the eggs for 14 minutes, I placed the eggs under cold running water. This is the way I am doing all of my hard cooked eggs from now on. Thanks, Peter, for sharing this great recipe. Made for January 2013 Aus/NZ Swap.
Thanks to *Tinkerbell* for demoing this recipe. I now have a new favorite way to boil my eggs. Worked wonderfully. :)

Critic Reviews

The best American movie about women so far this year, and probably the best that will be made this year.
In its cinematic incarnation, Sex and the City has lost none of its bawdiness yet gained a more profound sense of soberness. Parker, especially, who in the last season of the show bordered on insufferable in her affected squeaks and shrieks, is allowed to go to very dark places – to be, in fact, quite unfabulous.
Michael Patrick King's screenplay hits all the right notes, building on the warmth and familiarity of the series (which King also wrote).
A movie that taps directly back into the show's primal appeal, which is the sweet, sad, saucy delight of sharing these women's company.
Can't rightly be called a romantic comedy in the dismal, contemporary sense, though it is at times romantic and is consistently very funny. It's also emotionally realistic, even brutal.
The movie's beating heart is the friendship between the women, who had found some sort of happiness by the show's 2004 finale. Now they're all at a personal crossroads and need one another more than ever.
Amid the style, sass and sexiness is plenty of sentimentality, especially at the satisfying conclusion.
The four women couldn't be better - or better matched. As always, Parker is the standout, cracking your heart and cracking you up with equal ease.
In this film, the clothes and the city are characters as vital as the four leads, and they don't disappoint. But don't expect any trend-setting in the manner of the series. This is a runway that begins and ends with the movie.
It gives you everything you ever loved about the series, and blows it out into super-size cinematic proportions.
Sex and the City: The Motion Picture is a joyful wallow. And it's more: In this summer of do-overs (The Incredible Hulk, a new Batman versus a new Joker), it's what the series finale should have been.
It's less a movie than a delivery system for sensory pleasures, sunny romance and designer-label stuff that in real life would result in diabetic shock (or at least a ruined credit rating).
Ultimately, Sex And The City serves as a glitter-laced love letter to its fans, which is really all it needs to be.
Writer-director Michael Patrick King, the creative force behind the show's later seasons, can't disguise the fact that the movie is basically five TV episodes strung together (only three hit the mark). But his script is more honest about aging than anything in "Indy 4."
For the moment, King has restored women to their rightful place in a genre that is nothing without them. But, sadly, that genre isn't romantic comedy. It's the chick flick.

This movie made me laugh and cry - and glare angrily atA natural return to the life of the four not-so-single-anymore-women from New York.
This movie made me laugh and cry - and glare angrily at certain characters for how they behaved (very much in character, but that doesn't mean one doesn't want to hit them upside the head for being who they are - again, after they were doing so well).
There's a bit of familiar narration from Carrie, yet the fabulous scene has changed somewhat as our four ladies have gotten older and most of them have found their Mr. Right - and in Carrie's case, are about to take the big leap into something bigger.
Complications arise on all fronts, despite what looks like a very positive beginning. Every problem seems very natural, yet a few I wished hadn't happened because I was cheering on those characters during the TV series and wished they didn't have to go through the events here...
Either way, if you're a fan of the TV show, you'll treat this like a string of really long episodes. Nothing new is added to the mix - but nothing new was really needed.… Full Review »

Starring squinty Sarah Jessica Parker, who will never be leading lady material, as a writer named Carrie Bradshaw, and featuring her three gal pals, Sex and the City is better than expected. Parker could be decked in diamonds and still look to me like the best friend in Footloose, and the silly soap opera bobs up and down never gaining traction. The nicely packaged Sex and the City piles on the outfits—bony Parker looks ridiculous in everything but the wedding gowns—the arched eyebrow lines and the alcohol (and, at this rate, all four of them ought to head for rehab). Though it sputters and stalls, there is usually something good to look at or listen to and it is often something relatable. Awkward, silent moments in the back of a taxi—an emotional rescue on New Year's Eve—the wonder of a properly lighted walk-in closet, there's a refreshing honesty about what people, especially women, really feel about having it all in the big, lonely city. True, Parker's character is irrevocably petty and Cattrall's aging blonde horndog is as nutritious as a Hostess Ho-Ho, but sometimes you gotta give in to the laughs and there's plenty of that in this feminine fairy tale.… Full Review »

This question is similar to Does an equivalent of Time Machine exist for Windows?, with one difference:
The files I want to back up are on a network drive. The computer on that network drive is running Windows XP. I want to back up data on Windows 7.
How would I do so?
I'd like something similar to Mac OS X' time machine. So copy of data every hour, day, week. Then thinning out, data gets deleted automatically as time goes by. For example, the data for last day is kept as hourly snapshots. For last week, as daily snapshots every day. And for last month as weekly snapshots.
How can I achieve this?

What makes you support Man United ?
Since there are many threads where posters are being accused of glory seeking, I thought I should post a new thread to discuss this topic, to find why some people support Man United, is it the recent achievements of Man United that makes you become a united supporter or a long forgotten Great Grandma that you recently discover resided near Old Trafford that tips you over the edge to become a supporter too?
What are yours?Sort: Newest | Oldest | Most Replied Expand all replies
Used to visit my eldest brother studying at the Uni there in mid sixties. He had a flat in Rusholme(? spelling) just across the park from City's ground - rough area nowadays I'm led to believe. Coming from Sri Lanka to start school in England, I had never played football & knew not a lot about it (still don't may be!), one day got bored and decided to do what most kids did on a Saturday afternoon and went to see United. Best, Law & Charlton should be 3 good enough reasons - David Herd another favourite. Soon became hooked & after that anytime I was there and there was a game I'd go. Spent 99% of my life in London and followed them with school chums at all the clubs in London whichever were followed by my friends - no one in my family had an iota of interest in football.
Dead easy getting in those days - remember once at a mid-week game at WHLane, as the gates were full we walked around the ground trying to interpret the crowds' cheers & finally got in for free at half time when they opened the gates to let the disabled come & go. Spurs too had a fantastic side then.
As for a reason to continue after Best & Co, it was probably the Matt Busby thing of WINNING WITH STYLE & GLORY! So I must be one of many glory hunters.

Not a bad area, really. It is the home of Curry Mile -so many restaurants to choose from in that area. Still get a lot of students round there, to be honest.
My dad started taking me to OT in 73. He bought me my first season ticket in 74 and i've had one ever since
The lad next door threatened to punch my lights out if I dared support City. I cant put into words how much I owe that boy.

Born into it. My Grandfather came to Manchester in the 60's and settled in Salford. He worked on the docks and told me how in the canteen everywhere there were pictures of the Busby Babes who had died in the Munich air disaster and how the other workers told him how great that side was. He became a supporter and made sure my Dad followed suit when he was born and my Dad made sure I never made the mistake of trying to support Citeh. My Dad took me to my first game in 1984. Robbo became my hero and I've supported the Red Devils ever since.
Started supporting the club in late 92 when i was 13....watched the first game with my elder brother. Been a supporter since. Joined the Malaysian M.U.F.C fan club in late 96.
I put my reasons in one of those other threads, but i'd like to add that United are a unique club. I think Munich is part of that, the fact that the club is built on equal parts tragedy and glory, it gives adifferent mentality. I wish I could track down the Busby quote, a kind of reply to the famous 'football's more important than life' one, where he gave a brilliant reply, clearly from the perspective of a man who loved football, but who had felt heartbreak too (anyone have it? I tried googling and searching for it many times, but there's no trace of it). Every time Sir bobby talks about the Busby babes and '68, the emotion he has strike you to your core, and I just don't see stuff like that with other clubs.
I also think Fergie's long reign has given the club much more of a family atmosphere, and people who've passed through, as players or back-room staff all seem to have a unique reaction to the club.
Sorry if I'm rambling a bit, but the recent threads just got my mind mullng over these topics.

Wise Son, all said and done is it fair to conclude that the deciding factor for you is simply a mancunian p*ssy? Don't mind my brash language.
Born into it. My family would have disowned me if I had supported Man City. I do have one cousin who supports City though (he was always the thick one at school)...
Weirdly as a little kid at infant school I always wanted to be John Aston, rather than George Best. I still think Aston is one of United true greats.

When I watched Utd in London, the Utd fans used to boo Aston & simultaneously at Stamford Bridge, the Chelsea fans used to boo Peter Houseman. Aston had the last laugh though, did pretty well (understatement) in the European Cup Final.
But Best was the man everyone talked about, even all the opposition fans on tubes and trains. Everyone was sh*t scared of what he might do to their team. He never let me down every time I was at the Bridge. Memories of Best disappearing into the haze on his mazy dribbles followed by the avalanche of toilet rolls flying after the goal is something I'll never forget.

Shall we do it at your place gal?
This is what I posted in another thread...
I started when Cantona joined.
Thats a long time now and I get more passionate about it every year. I don't feel like a glory hunter and I also will still be here if we ever stop winning.
For me it's about the teams mentality, the never give up attitude.
I stayed in Manchester for 3 years Monday to Friday for work. I was living in Bedfordshire. I was fortunate enough to go to Old Trafford 3 times.
I really don't care what people say, I am a Manchester United fan and will be for the rest of my life.

I initaillly supported United becuase of Beckham. I'm no longer a Beckham fan, but i still follow United and i always will.
I support United coz Bryan Robson was a major hero of mine. I was more into England as a youngster but got into United coz he played for them.
Ryan Giggs emergence sealed the deal, what a player he was.

It started when i was 4 in 1994. I had seen my dad watching United on the tele and he started talking to me about the players and everything. That was when i was 3. When i was 4 and understood the rules of the game fully, i watched every game me and my dad could on the tele if they showed the matches.
There wasn't cable in my country till i was 6 or 7 and that's when i started watching every game. Watching the class of 92 mature was really awesome and even though we had some rough patched when Wenger came along, I still stood by the team and thank god i did not jump ship like those fickled minded fans,
I've not been to Old Trafford or England for that matter but it's still a joy to watch United play even though it's on a tv screen rather than being part of the crowd cheering United on.
If i had a choice i most certainly would pick the second one.
Anyways is it true that Old Trafford is very quiet?
I was watching the United and pool game on the tele and for the ealry part of the match all i could hear was " You'll never walk alone" from the crowd.

I went to a school that played rugby and cricket and I only became aware of football at the time of the 1966 world cup. I started to support United because of Bobby Charlton and have supported them ever since. Contrary to the comment about glory hunters, United were still the best supported club in Britain and had the highest aggregate crowd for the season when they were relegated to the old second division, and throughout the years of Leeds and then Liverpool domination.
- 1 Reply to A Yahoo! User
To be fair, these other supporters only tend to apply the term to United fans who started to support them post-1992. They might have a point, but it is one that used to apply to Liverpool when I was a schoolkid, and also to Leeds fans, as MUFC didn't have a great decade in the seventies (with the exception of beating Liverpool in the FA Cup final).
Chelsea has in recent times attracted glory hunters, as has Arsenal (although if Wenger continues to buy 17 year olds for 225 Euros and loses his top players to other clubs, you wonder how long they are going to stick around for?).
The thing with MUFC is that we are probably (with the possible exception of Newcastle), the only team that could lose all its non-local support and still fill the ground.

Pricing for the 2011 Ford Fiesta has gone live. Ford's new B-segment supermini will start at a price of $13,320 (plus destination, tax) for the sedan, $15,120 for the hatchback. [Ford]
Though we saw leaked images of the 2011 Ford Fiesta yesterday, today we've got complete details on Ford's second Europe-to-US entry. The Fiesta hits our shores as either hatchback or sedan with a new dry-clutch automatic transmission and 40MPG highway.
Ford has announced it will enter two Fiestas in the 2009 Pike's Peak International Hill Climb. With 800 HP 2.0 liter four-cylinders forged in the fires of hell they certainly won't be your Grandma's econobox.
Remember when Ford's Scott Monty put out a Twitter-APB on Jake Bronstein's "stolen" Ford Fiesta? Turns out they were tracking another "Fiesta Movement" winner, and Jake's car is trapped in NYC's hellish impound system.
We don't know who this little man is, but he makes us laugh enough that we're totally telling Didorosi to pick him up and give him a ride when he gets his Fiesta. NSFW.
Just as the "Fiesta Movement" kicks off, we've received spy photos of the US-spec 2011 Ford Fiesta courtesy of eagle-eyed Jalopnik reader Brian. What we see? The 'merican version has gotten a bit of rhinoplasty.
Ford's "Fiesta Movement" will give away a new Ford Fiesta to 100 "socially-networked millenials," asking them to document their experiences on teh Facebook, teh Flickr and teh YouTubes.
It's hard to say whether someone at Ford Europe has a cruel sense of humor, or if these were just the last overalls in the bin. Whatever the reason, they're pink, and they were worn by workers installing huge banners over the Cologne Plant ahead of the celebration at the start of 2009 Ford Fiesta production. The…

I stopped buying GOL because of their persistence in using GMO-tainted soy, as all soy nowadays test positive for GMO cross-contamination, and switched to the other 2 better raw, organic brands that are 100% soy-free, and also because, despite phone calls, GOL still refuses to do anything about their bottle problem with caps being screwed on too tight and impossible for even a man to open. (I get wrist pain and that is a huge problem for me. They merely stated "we're aware of the problem" but without any indication that they cared enough to fix). This free sample was welcome, I took it during the flu but of course, there's no way to tell from a small sample if it helped, considering that I'm taking a lot of natural flu remedies. I give it 5 stars because I didn't hurt my wrist opening these and because these have no soy for a change!
I tried this sample to test another kind of multi vitamin. This one really got me going, it is simple, has nice amounts of the nutrients and it has the bonus of having all natural, raw, whole ingredients. The proprietary blends are also very nice. You fell very good and healthy when taking theses. The down side is that it doesnt say here what are the exact chemical and components of the vitamins. So you dont really know what is 'under the hood'. Overall a good product!
♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ Best Caps EVER !!!!

Excellent freebie!

This is a one day supply of a raw, whole foods based organic multi-vitamin. It can be used for the whole family including children over 6 which I like. This is a great way to make sure your family members that aren't eating all the fruits and veggies they should be are getting all the nutrition they need.

How do I choose products that will be most profitable for my store?
I have had a coffee/deli/bakery for seven years and I've broken even or lost a little money. How do I raise revenue to have more money for advertising and increasing income to get a paycheck? I make everything from scratch. Cakes, pasta salads, even frappe mix, and have loyal customers and rave reviews but not enough income!
Join us for a free, live webinar and learn how to drive revenue with content marketing. Tune in 8/4 at 10:30 a.m. PT. Register Now »Wow - I know EXACTLY what you are going through, and the simple answer is that you need to do a lot of investigating and evaluating. Before you can make the right choices on new products and what kind of advertising to do (you may want to consider doing both of these) you need to be in tune with what your clients need and want, AND you need to honestly evaluate your current location.
To start off with, answer these questions: What kind of clients do you cater to? Are they upscale execs, working people, students, suburban moms? The answer to this question will help you consider the right menu/products options. Is your location a natural spot that your best clients pass by every day? What is the parking situation like? The answers to these questions will help you understand your normal traffic patterns and if you have a hope of surviving in your current location. What are your expenses? Are you carefully seeking out cost-effective vendors for plates, utensils, foodstuffs, etc? Making some adjustments here could help to improve your bottom line.
Next, do an in-house survey. Ask your customers what papers they read, what local radio stations they listen to, what other products or menu items they'd like to see you carry. Once you have answered all these questions, you'll have a better idea of whether introducing the right mix odd new products or services (delivery to local companies, catering, fancy or health-conscious foods like wraps and unusual salads, drinks, Odwalla bars or organic drinks) or some combination thereof will generate the income you need to thrive (not just survive).
If your location and parking situation is fine, I'd suggest you meet with a local banker or economic development officer, to look into getting an influx of cash to meet your ad campaign, income and product expenses. At the same time try some guerrilla marketing tactics: Send out emails to local businesses, schools, and Chambers of Commerce about your assorted offerings and daily specials. Start actively encouraging your current customers to spread the word about how great your place is. Have a professional graphic designer make up a 8.5 x 11 sales "poster" using your logo, that you can fax to area businesses every day. Send a professionally written press release to your local daily and weekly papers and cable channels - they are always looking for great new places to recommend to their readers and viewers.
Best of luck!

Posted 24 January 2012 - 01:44 AM
As was said, the Reset Glitch hack is a possibility (depending on the console revision; all fat HDMI consoles are compatible, while Xenons are not). The SMC/JTAG hack is also a possibility, depending on the dashboard version. Check this thread for details.

You can do all boards, including zephyr, just not xenon. All phat HDMI xbox 360 can be done, there area few special cases in which some can't be done because of the CB, but other then that just the Xenon, first 360s with no hdmi can't be done, although Opus phat 360 can be done, even though they don't have HDMI, these are refurbs or replacements sent out by MS a while ago when they would fix an older 360, they wouldn't send you one back with HDMI if you had a xenon, they sent back non-HDMI opus.

Posted 26 January 2012 - 02:26 AM
unfortunately it is an older 360 without HDMI and I don't think it has been refurbished before.

Thanks for the pic, looks like I got the Xenon so still have a large paper weight.

Is it possible MM and exchanges are a large part of the remaining shorts in Affy?
Could it be they have some alternative method of obtaining shares other than on the open market?
Just look at what happened with the options.
We were told as of June 6 there could be no more opening options contracts on Affy but I noticed that happening and placed an order. When the reject came back I asked why there were 200 newly established Oct $.50 calls and I got a quick bs answer. I insisted on an official inquiry. The following was the response:
"Effective 6/6/13 AFFY was delisted from the NASDAQ Global Select Market. As a result no opening transactions in options are allowed for AFFY. This decision was made by the exchanges and is outside of the control of ETRADE. Market-Makers and exchanges will be allowed to enter opening transactions to offset a closing transactions. "
Tom, it is bad that your options went haywire. When the stock was low priced, you don't buy options unless it available for a much lower price, 10 cents or so. Imagine buying 5 K shares for 10K when 20,000 shares worth of options vanished away,
Options play is good and much leverage, however it is not for some stocks which are of AFFY's type.
I hope you own shares of AFFY. I'm unmoved with their manipulations, even yesterday I had some funds bought 3K shares!
Sentiment: Strong Buy
I knew the order wouldn't go through when I placed it. But when it came back rejected I was able to ask ETrade why and demand an official response not an employee opinion which I got. I have Jan14 and Jan15 options on Affy as well as shares. I don't trust brokers. They spew wrong answers unless you make their response official and in writing. My problem here is with the Options Exchange where we can't trade opening contracts but they can. Now I'm concerned about the availability of shares when it comes to calculating total number available. Is there a backdoor for the market makers to obtain shares to cover their short position? It doesn't make sense that options on 3.5 million shares expired and the price went down.

Obama, Biden Make Final Election Pitch for Democrats
President Barack Obama made his final campaign-trail and radio pitches to voters as he asked for support in helping his party retain control of Congress, while Republicans predicted an historic election sweeping incumbents from office.
Obama appeared yesterday with Vice President Joe Biden in Cleveland in what was his last stop on a four-state swing to try to stem a potential loss of his party's majority control in tomorrow's elections. The president continued political efforts from the White House today, giving interviews to syndicated and local radio program hosts. First lady Michelle Obama campaigned for Senator Harry Reid in Nevada.
"You've got the chance to once again say, 'Yes we can,'" Obama, 49, said yesterday inside an arena at Cleveland State University. "There is no doubt that this is a difficult election and that's because we've gone through an incredibly difficult time as a nation."
The midterm campaign has been shaped by a national unemployment rate at or above 9.5 percent for the last 14 months, criticism of the White House's domestic agenda and an anti-Washington sentiment reflected in the Tea Party movement.
Obama's weekend schedule took him to states where Democrats are trying to build a firewall to maintain control of the U.S. Senate. The party is likely to lose its grip on the U.S. House, according to independent analyst rankings and polls.
Setback for Agenda
Republican dominance even in one chamber likely would set back Obama's agenda, while the loss of Democratic governorships could add extra hurdles to any 2012 re-election bid because of the help they can provide in swing states such as Ohio.
The Obama-Biden rally was meant to benefit Ohio Democratic Governor Ted Strickland, who is in a close race with Republican challenger John Kasich, a former congressman.
"We're going to make sure the bankrupted policies of the Republican Party don't knock us down again," Biden said at the rally. "We're starting to get out of this God-awful mess."
In Ohio's Senate race, polls show Republican Rob Portman leading Democrat Lee Fisher to fill the seat left vacant by the retirement of Republican George Voinovich.
"President Obama has enormous political capital invested in Ohio," Voinovich told reporters on a conference call, adding that Obama's repeated Ohio visits "have been more about his concern for his future election in 2012 than the future of Ohio."
The Democratic National Committee is using the president to make the party's closing argument through a new ad.
National Advertising
"We cannot sit this one out," Obama tells a crowd of supporters in the ad, which will run nationally on cable channels MSNBC and BET until the election. In footage from rallies held over the last several months, Obama warns voters that if Republicans win the elections, the party will return to the economic policies that caused the recession.
The DNC has transferred $2.67 million to state parties for the final election push. States receiving the last minute influx of funds include Illinois, Ohio, Nevada, Pennsylvania and Florida.
In television appearances, Democratic officials said they remained determined to prove analysts wrong.
"It's not a lost cause," Maryland Representative Chris Van Hollen, head of the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee, said on the "Fox News Sunday" program. "All these Washington pundits are going to be surprised."
Republicans Lead in Polls
Polls contradict such optimism. According to a CNN/Opinion Research Corporation poll conducted October 27-30, Republicans are leading Democrats 52 percent to 42 percent among likely voters. A Pew Research Center poll conducted during the same period gives Republicans a six percentage point advantage.
The ratings suggest the Republican Party will win enough of the popular vote to gain control of the House, according to Pew. The margin of error was plus or minus three percentage points for the CNN survey and three to five percentage points for Pew.
Much of the Republican momentum is driven by independent voters, who backed Democrats by a 42 percent to 35 percent margin in the 2006 election. Today they favor the Republicans 45 percent to 32 percent, according to Pew.
Republicans are projected to gain a net of least 55 U.S. House seats by the Rothenberg Political Report, a nonpartisan publication based in Washington. Republicans need a 39-seat gain to take control of the chamber.
Rothenberg and other analysts say Democrats have a better chance of keeping control of the U.S. Senate, where Republicans would need to gain 10 seats to take control.
Campaign's Final Phase
David Axelrod, a senior adviser to Obama, said in an interview that Obama would spend the final phase of the campaign "calling into stations and targeted media" in local markets with close races.
"It's better at this point to have him in one place where we can reach a lot of venues at once and that's through media," he said.
Obama this afternoon taped an interview for the syndicated radio programs of Ryan Seacrest, Russ Parr and Steve Harvey that are set for broadcast tomorrow. He was sitting for a live interview with broadcaster Michael Baisden, and was interviewed on local stations this morning, including those in Milwaukee, Cincinnati and Philadelphia.
'Lurch to the Left'
Haley Barbour, chairman of the Republican Governors Association, said on NBC's "Meet the Press" program that if Republicans win the House it will be a repudiation of Obama's policies. Barbour, governor of Mississippi, said the election is a referendum on Obama's health care and economic policies that represent the "biggest lurch to the left" in American history.
"It's going to be a political earthquake and the message will have been sent to the left that they blew it," Sarah Palin, former Alaska governor and Republican vice presidential nominee, said on "Fox News Sunday."
Democratic National Committee Chairman Tim Kaine said winning the House would force Republicans to vote for unpopular spending cuts and tax increases in order to uphold a pledge to voters to trim the budget deficit by $100 billion next year.
"The Republicans will be forced to govern," Kaine said on the NBC program. Kaine said Republicans, including Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell, have a "political and partisan agenda" of making Obama a one-term president.
Political Prestige
One of Obama's weekend stops was in Chicago as he sought to boost the Democrat trying to win his old U.S. Senate seat.
Obama has placed his political prestige on the line in Illinois. He has made three appearances for Alexi Giannoulias, the Democratic state treasurer seeking the Illinois Senate seat. That rivals his effort for Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid, who is trailing in the most recent Nevada polls against Republican Sharron Angle.
Mark Kirk, a five-term Republican congressman, and Giannoulias have spent much of their campaign debating who is least trustworthy. Giannoulias has dealt with fallout from the April failure of his family's Broadway Bank, while Kirk was forced to apologize for exaggerating his biography.
Obama's weekend tour also included a Connecticut stop to support Democratic Senate candidate Richard Blumenthal, who is leading in the polls in his contest with Republican nominee Linda McMahon, a Tea Party favorite and former chief executive officer of World Wrestling Entertainment Inc. He also appeared in Philadelphia with Representative Joe Sestak, a Democrat in a close Senate race with former Representative Pat Toomey, a Republican.

If I have:
List<string> myList1;
List<string> myList2;
int placeToCheckValues = 0; //Used for breakpoints since the values don't get updated until after the line is executed
myList1 = getMeAList();
placeToCheckValues = 0; //Checked myList1 here, it contains 4 strings
myList2 = getMeAnotherList();
placeToCheckValues = 0; //Checked myList2 here, it contains 6 strings
placeToCheckValues = 0; //Checked mylist1 again, it contains 4 strings... why?
I ran code similar to this in Visual Studio 2008 and set break points after each execution. After
myList1 = getMeAList();,
myList1 contains four strings, and I pressed the plus button to make sure they weren't all nulls.
myList2 = getMeAnotherList();,
myList2 contains six strings, and I checked to make sure they weren't null... After
myList1.Concat(myList2); myList1 contained only four strings. Why is that?

The 14 students, all of whom work in day care, participated in state Destination Imagination competitions April 23, with six students serving as team managers for pre-school and elementary age children and the other eight forming a team to compete at the university level.
The university-level team earned the right to represent BRCC and the state at international DI competitions in Knoxville, Tenn., May 25. Information about DI is available on its Web site, www.destinationimagination.org.
Friday at 4:30 p.m. is the deadline for applying for BRCC Educational Foundation scholarships for 2005-06. Through the generosity of local donors, the foundation provides about $200,000 in scholarships to BRCC students each year. Applications are available on both campuses.

The "read more" test and ellipsis are not displaying at the end of the excerpt any more - usually they appear at the start instead, but sometimes somewhere in the middle
The "read more" test and ellipsis are not displaying at the end of the excerpt any more - usually they appear at the start instead, but sometimes somewhere in the middle
Update: After a bit of experimentation, I've found that it puts the "read more" text after the first image, regardless of where that image appears in the excerpt.
And a final update: it works correctly if "Don't remove any markup" is checked, so this provides a possible work-round
I was having the same problem. The "... [read more]" was showing up in the middle of some excerpts, not the end.
I discovered after much trial and error that if, in the Advanced Excerpt Options section, I went to the Keep Markup section and UNchecked the boxes for the following two html tags
...the plugin placed the "... [read more]" at the end of the excerpt.
Unfortunately, I was hoping to keep the em and strong tags, which was part of the point of using a plugin (to keep the styling), but something's better than nothing!
I was getting the read more link placed in the middle of the excerpt, right after the second link in it. I had to exclude link tags to fix it, ending up with this:
<?php the_advanced_excerpt('length=50&add_link=1&use_words=1&no_custom=1&ellipsis=%26hellip;&exclude_tags=div,img,p,strong,a');?>
Again, lost functionality, but works.
I'm having the same issue running 3.3.2 and the latest version of the plugin. Dylan, thanks for the work around. It would be nice if this great plugin worked as intended.
I was having the same problem, to solve I had to comment out the following code from the following 4 lines of code in the function called: text_add_more
// $pos = strrpos($text, '</');
// if ($pos !== false)
// Inside last HTML tag
// $text = substr_replace($text, $ellipsis, $pos, 0);
// else
// After the content
$text .= $ellipsis;
I can't see any purpose to these lines of code, and my excerpts all seem to be working correctly now.
Please could this code be fixed permanently on the next update of this superb plugin?
Mmm indeed the previous post was most effective but there is a purpose to those lines. It now always add the read more comment on a new line rather that it appends.
I'm running the ArjunaX theme with the latest version of wordpress. I had previously set my reading settings to show only excerpts. When landing on a results page after a search, the reader is not able to click on the three dots to read more. They have to click on the title. I've set the read settings to show the entire post but the three dots still appear and are not clickable. Please help! The site is http://www.europeanbiotechnologist.com. Searching for a word like "pcr" will give you a good idea of what I'm talking about.

New London – Fire destroyed a ground floor apartment and displaced at least 15 people from a six-unit building at the Nutmeg Woods apartment complex on Thursday.
The fire appears to have originated in the kitchen at 45-1 Hawthorne Drive North, according to New London Fire Chief Henry Kydd. Firefighters arrived to find heavy black smoke enveloping the complex and that apartment fully engulfed in flames.
Ashley Gomes, a tenant in an adjoining building, said one of her neighbors banged on her apartment door yelling "fire."
"Thank God," Gomes said. "I grabbed my baby and ran down the stairs. It was just thick, dark smoke everywhere."
Firefighters were able to contain the fire to the one unit, but others in the three-story building sustained varying degrees of smoke damage.
Tenants were all evacuated and no injuries were reported.
Both of the ground-level units were immediately deemed uninhabitable, and inspectors with the fire marshal's office were checking the building for further damage Thursday afternoon.
Sue Rochester-Bolen, senior director of emergency services for the local chapter of the American Red Cross, said tenants from all six units were temporarily displaced for the night.
The Red Cross is helping 15 people – 10 adults and five children from five of the six families who were displaced. Two people have made alternative arrangements for housing, but the rest are getting help with emergency housing, food and clothing needs.
Rochester-Bolen said property management at Nutmeg Woods has offered to meet with some of the displaced families on Friday in an effort to help them relocate into other units within the complex.
New London firefighters were joined at the scene by firefighter assistance teams from the Naval Submarine Base and Norwich fire departments.
The cause of the fire remains under investigation by the city's fire marshal's office.
