From Our Editors
It's easy to see why some clients refer to The Eyelash Place, Inc. as "The Miracle on 39th Street." The all-around beauty emporium has been enhancing eyes, shaping brows, and softening skin for more than 30 years—and those services make up only a portion of the salon's lengthy menu.
As one might expect, eyelash extensions take center stage on this menu. Using semipermanent glue or a surgical-grade bonding agent, technicians apply these extensions individually to create longer, fuller lashes capable of putting out a fire or seducing a high-security eye scanner. Lashes aren't much without a smooth complexion to match, and aestheticians do their part to rejuvenate skin with SKINWYNC products and microcurrents that work to stimulate collagen production. When they turn their attention to the body, it's to eradicate fatty deposits with Wellbox anticellulite treatments.

"Good choice" Noria Resort Tip by ivanab
Noria Resort, Sharm El Sheikh: 996 reviews and 1 photos
When I decided to go to Sharm for a vacation, I had a really hard time deciding about the hotel we'll be staying in. Considering the reccomendation of a friend, the choice fell onto Noria Resort in Naama Bay. And it was a good choice. Hotel was clean, cosy, staff was kind and the food was good. Only minus is the hotel beach because its small and loud, but there are plenty other beaches near, so with a little effort, you can enjoy more beautifull beaches.
Unique Qualities: We booked and a room with a pool view and it was amazing. We were accomodated in a smaller buliding surrounding the smaller pool. And it was great, because after a hot and fulfilling days before going to sleep we went for a little swim and hang out wit friends at the pool. It was the best thing! The other plus was that the hotel is at the really good place for younger people who are willing to explore Sharm. The centre of Naama Bay with all the shops, bars, restaurants and clubs is across the street, and if you want to go to Old Sharm or 1001 Nights Centre you'll only need about 10-15 min by taxi.

Comments about Standard Length Adjustable DogLeggs:
A little leery in buying things on line, but this product has proven it's worth. I and our vet have seen a great improvement with the swelling of Georgia's knee. She does not try to take it off or chew at it. It feels comfortable on and lying down of tile or wood floors feel good to her.
Comments about Standard Length Adjustable DogLeggs:
My sweet lab has severe osteoarthritis, and developed hygroma's. Unfortunately, one developed an ulcer, and it did not heal for over a month. Our vet referred us to a specialist, who recommended DogLeggs. I am so glad she did! After only one week of wearing the DogLeggs the ulcer healed! I wish I would have known about these a long time ago. I am confident her hygroma's will heal after a few weeks also. This is incredibly well made, and my dog is super comfortable in it, it does not bother her at all.
Comments about Standard Length Adjustable DogLeggs:
My lab/collie mix is about 95 lbs and had managed to get one of his elbows into such an ulcerated state that the Vet was starting to discuss surgery. This product has been the only way we have kept him from pestering the spot (cone was not an option for him) and it is almost healed. We will continue to have him wear this to avoid the elbows getting into bad condition. Thank you for this great product!
Comments about Standard Length Adjustable DogLeggs:
The Dogleggs I recently bought from VetRXDirect are actually a replacement for a pair I bought in 2010 but which finally wore out. They've proved very effective in allowing my dog's elbow ulcers to finally heal. One thing to note: If your dog has "escape artist" tendencies, the product as supplied can allow the dog to take the Dogleggs off. I finally figured out that my dog was able to get the parts that go over her back over her head, and which point the whole thing would drop to the ground and she'd step out of it. The solution is to get some two inch velcro and use it as a "belly band" passing behind the front legs and attaching to the Dogleggs on each side.
Comments about Standard Length Adjustable DogLeggs:
My dog has been wearing his DogLeggs for several weeks. It was easy to use and he adjusted to wearing it quickly. His elbows are already looking better.
Comments about Standard Length Adjustable DogLeggs:
My hound mix is suffering from hygromas on both elbows, and this product is perfect at protecting her post-surgery elbow. The package arrived quickly, and included lots of extra information, plus a dog treat. Very nice!
Comments about Standard Length Adjustable DogLeggs:
I must have misunderstood, as I bought these for my Sheltie that has developed arthritis. I wanted something that gave him some support for walking. These are nice and padded, but not quite what I expected.
Comments about Standard Length Adjustable DogLeggs:
Our golden lab, Mia, had bursa sacks the size of golf balls on her front elbows. Found dogg leggs on line. Within a week the bursa sacks were gone and now a few months later her elbows are fully healed. Thank you DoggLeggs!

BMP Removal Efficiency of Phosphorous and Nitrogen in Stormwater
|Heaven Meinnert
|Faculty Mentor(s)
|Earth and Environmental Sciences
|EES 489: Research in the Natural Sciences
Currently, water pollution from stormwater runoff is a major contributor to the poor water quality across the country in our rivers, streams, bays, and lakes. Best Management Practices, or BMPs, are accepted as the most effective means to reduce the quantity of pollutants from contaminated stormwater. In this study, we examined two types of BMPs. The first was a small-scale model of a filtering tank. This laboratory-based experiment involved examining the effectiveness of an activated carbon filter on removing nitrogen and phosphorus as well as decreasing turbidity in manufactured stormwater. The second type of BMP analyzed was a vegetative swale. Using four different swales on campus behind Blocker Hall, this experiment analyzed each swale's efficiency in removing nitrogen, phosphorus, and reducing turbidity.

I have decided to adopt Nagios for our infrastructure. We were going to use Logwatch, but after seeing some of the things in Nagios like log rotation I am wondering if Nagios is capable of sending daily\weekly reports similiar to Logwatch aka replacing Log watch?
There are quite a few addons you can use with Nagios to extend its functionality and therefore customize it to fit your needs. Check out the Reporting addons page of Nagios Exchange for the addons specific to providing more extensive reporting capability.
Specifically, you might want to look at Nagios Email Reporter.

This application is a continuation of application Ser. No. 11/677,799 filed on Feb. 22, 2007 (pending), entitled "DISTRIBUTED AUTOMATIC GAIN CONTROL SYSTEM", which, in turn, is a continuation of application Ser. No. 10/084,115 filed on Feb. 25, 2002 (issued), entitled "DISTRIBUTED AUTOMATIC GAIN CONTROL SYSTEM", all of which applications are incorporated herein by reference.
The operational range of a system that combines and distributes signals within buildings or other areas where wireless signal propagation is likely to be a problem, whether the signals are digital or analog or some combination of both, is limited by the dynamic range handling capability of the system. In a distributed system, such as the one disclosed in U.S. patent application Ser. No. 09/619,431, "Point-To-Point Digital Radio Frequency Transport," filed on Jul. 19, 2000, incorporated herein by reference as if fully set forth, signals of varying levels are present at input ports, at signal combiners and at output ports. A large signal at a single input port may potentially saturate the output port (e.g., cause an overflow condition) if the large signal exceeds the dynamic range of the system and is not controlled in some way.
Even if a saturation level is not reached, a large signal may effectively limit the amount of traffic that the system can handle. For example, capacity in a spread spectrum system, such as a system employing a spreading function (for example, code division multiple access (CDMA), IEEE 802.11 complimentary code keying (CCK), or the like) is generally limited by the total amount of power allowed for all users in the bandwidth of interest in order to prevent unacceptable interference. Thus, power levels of spread spectrum mobile unit transmitters are continually adjusted to a level that is sufficient to maintain good signal reception at the base station but also minimizes signal power levels. For signals from mobile units that are supported by the distributed point-to-multipoint digital micro-cellular communication system (distributed communication system), power level adjustment works seamlessly. For example, if the signal from a supported mobile unit is boosted and provided to a base station, the base station will inform the mobile unit that its transmitter power should be correspondingly reduced. However, the frequency spectrum that is received, processed and distributed by the distributed communication system is shared by many services and devices and thus the distributed communication system will likely receive and process signals from communication services that are not supported by the system as well as from other sources of interference in the band. For example, the communications standard for wireless local networks, IEEE 802.11, calls for using the 2.4 GHz Industrial Scientific Medical (ISM) band. The 2.4 GHz ISM band has been called the "junk band" because it is contaminated by microwave oven emissions. Such non-supported and interfering signals may reach significant power levels in the coverage area and cause significant problems.
For example, a distributed communication system in a building or other enclosure may share a coverage area with a non-supported service. Further, the non-supported service may have mobile units in the coverage area that share the same bandwidth with the distributed communication system. Unfortunately, the mobile units from the non-supported service may transmit at much higher power levels compared to the distributed communication system to provide for good reception by the non-supported base station, which may be located a significant distance from the building or enclosure. This power level may be many orders of magnitude greater than signals from supported sources that are much closer to radio transceivers in the building or enclosure and may effectively "power limit" the capacity of the system or saturate the distributed communications system.
The above-mentioned problems with controlling the gain of wireless signals in distributed communication systems within buildings and other enclosed areas, as well as other problems, are addressed by the present invention and will be understood by reading and studying the following specification.
A wireless distribution system according to one aspect of the present invention includes a plurality of remote units distributed in a coverage area to receive wireless signals in the coverage area and provide the signals to a plurality of input ports to receive signals comprising the signals provided by the plurality of remote units a plurality of input power monitors operatively connected to one or more of the plurality of input ports to determine power levels of signals received at the input port a plurality of variable gain controllers to control the gain of signals received at the one or more of the plurality of input ports in response to a control signal, a node to combine a plurality of signals from the plurality of input ports, and a controller to provide control signals to individually control each of the variable gain controllers.
In the following detailed description of the preferred embodiments, reference is made to the accompanying drawings that form a part hereof, and in which is shown by way of illustration specific embodiments in which the invention may be practiced. It is to be understood that other embodiments may be utilized and structural changes may be made without departing from the scope of the present invention.
In general, the frequency spectrum served by distribution system 100 is shared by a number of users and services. Users and services that are supported by distribution system 100 will usually be subject to and will abide by power control limitations of the system so that signal interference will not result from the use of excessive power. However, not all of the users and services sharing the frequency spectrum are supported by distribution system 100 and some of the signals, particularly those that are not subject to the power control limitations imposed by supported services may reach sufficient amplitude such that they may interfere with signals supported by the distribution system. This is particularly likely if strong signals are broadcast in close proximity to a receiving unit such as DRUs 102 i to 102 n. The distributed wireless communication system has a limited dynamic range and accordingly must be protected from signals that would saturate or otherwise exceed the dynamic range handling capability of the system.
One example of an AGC circuit for use in a distributed communication system according to the present invention is shown in
DEU 240 has a number of input ports 205 i to 205 n for receiving transmission links 204 i to 204 n from each DRU or DEU located upstream from DEU 240. Each input port 205 i to 205 n has associated with it an input power level calculator 208 i to 208 n to determine power levels of signals received over transmission links 204 i to 204 n. The input power level calculators 208 i to 208 n provide power level signals to controller 230. Controller 230, which may be a dedicated controller or part of a larger system-wide controller, determines weights for gain control of the distribution system. Controller 230 determines weights 214 i to 214 n for individually controlling the gain of signals received over transmission links 204 i to 204 n at multipliers 216 i to 216 n so that the signals do not exceed a predetermined threshold level. The gain controlled signals are then provided to node 226 via transmission links 218 i to 218 n. Node 226 digitally sums the signals from transmission links 218 i to 218 n. Combined power level calculator 228 determines the power level of the signals combined at node 226 and provides the combined power level signal to controller 230. The combined signals are then transmitted upstream via transmission link 231 to DHU or DEU 232. Output signal 227 on transmission link 231 is the combined signals of 218 i to 218 n. If the combined power level calculator 228 sees a combined signal power that exceeds a predetermined level, then the coefficients 214 i to 214 n are set by controller 230 and assigned based on the Power Calculators 208 i to 208 n. The weights of coefficients 214 i to 214 n are set by the controller based on the individual input power calculators 208 i to 208 n. Thus, the smaller the input signal the larger the corresponding weighted coefficient.
When the signal, 231, at Power Calculator 228 is lower than a predetermined "decay threshold", the weighted coefficients 214 i to 214 n are increased over time based on a decay time constant and a fair weighting based on input Power calculators 208 i to 208 n is applied to the input signals 204 i to 204 n until a satisfactory power level is achieved at combined power calculator 228. Conversely, when the signal, 231, at combined power calculator 228 is higher than a predetermined "attack threshold," the weighted coefficients 214 i to 214 n are decreased over time based on an attack time constant and a fair weighting based on input Power calculators 208 i to 208 n is applied to the input signals 204 i to 204 n until a satisfactory power level is achieved at combined power calculator 228.
Operation of one example of a distributed AGC system according to the present invention will now be described. While the system of
The weighted coefficients 214 i to 214 n are initially set to provide a minimum attenuation level of the combined signals on transmission link 231. When the level of the combined signals on transmission link 231 exceeds a predetermined threshold as determined by combined power level calculator 228, controller 230 which signal or signals exceed a threshold level and will attenuate those signals so that the combined power at 228 avoids an overflow condition at the node. Signal levels at each input port 205 i to 205 n are monitored and evaluated by input power calculators 208 i to 208 n to determine whether any transmission link 204 i to 204 n is providing a signal that exceeds a predetermined level. If one or more of the input power calculators 208 i to 208 n reports a signal level that exceeds the threshold, signals from those input ports will be gain controlled by adjusting weights 214 i to 214 n until all input signal levels are at or below a level such that an overflow condition is avoided. The thresholding and gain control process may be duplicated at other DEUs upstream or downstream from node 226 so Monitoring of the signal levels at the input ports may take place continuously or may be triggered only after combined power calculator 228 senses a combined signal level that warrants a change in gain control of the combined signals at the node. Alternatively, signal levels at the input ports may be polled periodically to determine whether signal levels may have changed.
In one additional example of the present invention, a frequency selective attenuation device such as an adaptive filter may be used to attenuate only those frequencies at which the offending signals are found. This may be preferable in applications where the interfering signals are confined to specific frequencies and other desirable signals would be lost if the overall gain of signals from one or more DRUs were controlled. In another example, combined power calculator 228 may be eliminated entirely and distributed AGC performed by adjusting the gain of the signals received upstream from the DRUs. Of course, an AGC unit would be required for each DRU and for each signal path in which signal gain might increase by interference, amplification or otherwise.
A distributed wireless AGC system has been described. The distributed wireless AGC system includes a number of remote units distributed in a coverage area to receive wireless signals in the coverage area, a number of input ports to receive signals from the remote units, input power monitors operatively connected to each of the input ports to determine power levels of signals received at each input port, variable gain controllers to control the gain of signals received at each of the input ports in response to a control signal, a node to combine a plurality of signals from the plurality of input ports, a combined power monitor to determine power levels of the signals combined at the node, a controller to provide control signals to control the gain of each of the variable gain controllers based on a weighting function that is proportional to power received at each input port, as determined by the input power monitors such that the combined power as determined by the combined power monitor does not exceed a predetermined level.
Although specific embodiments have been illustrated and described herein, it will be appreciated by those of ordinary skill in the art that any arrangement which is calculated to achieve the same purpose may be substituted for the specific embodiments shown. For example, DHUs and DEUs are not limited to the receipt, gain control of and summing, splitting and transmitting of digitized wireless signals. In some examples of the present invention, DHUs and DEUs are capable of receiving, processing, gain controlling and summing analog wireless signals in addition to or instead of digitized wireless signals. As well, DHUs and DEUs may be capable of splitting, processing and transmitting analog wireless signals in addition to or instead of digitized wireless signals. This application is intended to cover any adaptations or variations of the present invention. Therefore, it is intended that this invention be limited only by the claims and the equivalents thereof.

Catholics battle over moral implications of budget politics
Ryan's budget would shift Medicaid to a block grant, with increases restricted to population growth and inflation. This means roughly 3 percent annual increases, rather than the current 7 percent, according to the Bipartisan Policy Center.
While reasonable minds can differ on how programs should be constructed, Reese said "a budget is a moral document, represents the values of a nation very concretely. One of those values should be concern for the poor and the sick and the needy."
Bishops on the budget
Shortly before the Georgetown confrontation, the U.S. Conference of Bishops issued a statement widely interpreted as a rebuke of Ryan, who had just announced his latest budget proposal.
"A central moral measure of any budget proposal is how it affects 'the least of these' (Matthew 25). The needs of those who are hungry and homeless, without work or in poverty should come first," the letter read.
The Bishops' letter then waded into specifics, arguing "just solutions, however, must require shared sacrifice by all, including raising adequate revenues, eliminating unnecessary military and other spending, and fairly addressing the long-term costs of health insurance and retirement programs."
The last phrase could be interpreted as an escape clause for Ryan's supporters, as their argument is that reining in entitlements, especially middle class entitlements, is the necessary prerequisite to securing the safety net.
"It seems like we have to do something like what Ryan has proposed, though maybe not exactly and maybe not as quickly," said Peter Lawler, a professor of political philosophy at Berry College in Georgia and a Catholic.
Arthur Brooks, President of the American Enterprise Institute and also a Catholic, explained why the bishops may be uncomfortable with the budget.
"The bishops have expressed a lot of discomfort with Paul's (Ryan) budget because of a biblical preference for the poor," Brooks said. "That is completely understandable, especially given the culture in which they have come to see the welfare state as the primary way we help the poor."
Radical individualism
In attacking Ryan, critics have more to work with than the budget itself. There is also the company he keeps. Ryan's critics point to his longstanding enthusiasm with the controversial novelist, atheist and libertarian Ayn Rand, as evidence that his worldview is not truly Christian.
"There is no better place to find the moral case for capitalism and individualism than through Ayn Rand's writings and works," Ryan said in 2005 at the Atlas Society while speaking at an event celebrating Rand's career.
Ryan told the same gathering that Rand's work "inspired me so much that it's required reading in my office for all my interns and my staff," according to transcripts at the Atlas Society website.
"That's not Catholic," Lawler said. "Ayn Rand is nuts. No Catholic can agree with that. No Catholic can agree that we are deep down selfish individuals. No Catholic can even agree with Glenn Beck that 'social justice is an oxymoron.'"
As Ryan's budget came under sharper attack from the Left, his affinity for Rand became a lightning rod for criticism, leading him to distance himself from her.
"I reject her philosophy," Ryan told Robert Costa at National Review in April. "It's an atheist philosophy. It reduces human interactions down to mere contracts and it is antithetical to my worldview. If somebody is going to try to paste a person's view on epistemology to me, then give me Thomas Aquinas."
In a May 4 town meeting, Ryan further distanced himself from Rand. "Just because you like someone's novels doesn't mean you agree with their entire worldview philosophy," Ryan told the audience, describing Rand's atheist worldview as "completely antithetical to mine."

My server (runs on Ubuntu 12.04) is behind a NAT and has to access a specific service that has a public IP address (
The problem is that I cannot reach that specific public IP (all other IP addresses for the same service work; the domain has several IP addresses assigned to it). The same IP address can be reached from another identical environment. The NAT server (through which I pass) can also access it.
Tcpdump on my server shows only SYN packages, while on the NAT does not show any traffic comming from my server. The IP is not blocked by iptables on the NAT server. Another IP for the same service works fine.
My Server -> My NAT -> (Unreachable) Public IP

Learning from the World's Best Central Bankers: Principles and Policies for Subduing Inflation / Edition 1by George M. von Furstenberg, Michael K. Ulan

Central bankers play a prominent role in many societies; a few of them even become oracles or celebrities. Yet they are not paid much heed - commonly accorded little respect - as educators and intellectual leaders. This volume hopes to change that. For the world's best central bankers, portrayed here, teach and lead impressively, doing so with insight, courage, quality, and conviction. They are commendable role models for those with high aspirations.
The growing reputation of central bankers suggests that there is much to be learned from examining the ways in which they practice their profession. So the authors proceeded to ask what are arguably the world's seven best central bankers, from various countries throughout the world, for documentation on what they considered to be their finest achievements and how they went about gaining support for policies designed to maintain price stability. They obtained excellent cooperation from John Crow of Canada, Roberto Zahler of Chile, Alan Greenspan of the United States, Helmut Schlesinger of Germany, Markus Lusser of Switzerland, Donald Brash of New Zealand and Yasushi Mieno of Japan.
They offer here a series of essays in which they present what central bankers have to say for themselves and the lessons they believe they can teach about monetary policy - not what economists, politicians, or journalists like to say about them. Learning from gifted practitioners is common in many fields where personal skills and the quality of judgment and execution matter so critically. It is particularly important in fields such as central banking where gaining political support, maintaining independence, and establishing credibility often make the difference between success and failure.
In this volume, we find a fascinating treatment of how the governors have tackled the hardest dilemmas of policy-making in their own specific political settings. We learn how the bankers themselves believe they have earned and preserved credibility and how they have maintained and expanded their base of support. We read, partly in their own words, how they have attempted to inspire trust and have secured and defended the independence of their institutions. We read how they have tried to cope with regulatory failures, unstable surges of capital flows, extremes in asset valuations, and financial crisis. Perhaps one of the most interesting lessons we learn is that central bankers must refuse to accept credit for fortuitous successes, like favorable supply shocks, lest they be blamed and lose credibility when things beyond their control go wrong.
As Professor Malkiel concludes in his Foreword, the essays in this volume can be of enormous value to academic economists, students, and especially future leaders in banking, finance, and government service. No study of monetary theory and policy will want to miss this fascinating work where the world's most gifted central bankers speak so eloquently about their trade.

"2 hours east of Vancouver..." Hope by Camping_Girl
Hope Travel Guide: 29 reviews and 128 photos
One of my favorite roads is the original Transcanada (#1) highway the runs north from Hope to Cache Creek and then east to Kamloops. You *can* take the shorter and faster (by about an hour) Coquihalla route from Hope to Kamloops. This is a toll road and is great if time is limited. But if you have a whole day to spend getting from Vancouver to Kamloops, I would definitely recommend this road (or the Duffy Lake Road from Whistler to Cache Creek) as a much more scenic and relaxing option to the Coquihalla.

This is an absolutely delicious dish! Being a Freo gal myself now living overseas, I have always been looking out for the perfect chili mussel recipe. I need look no more! This recipe is authentic with the perfect amount of spice to tomato ratio. A suggestion - serve with lightly toasted baguette slices that have their sides rubbed with a garlic clove. Yummo!
I've been in Perth a couple of times and had chilli mussels in Freo. I really loved them and now I wanted to make them her in Holland as well. I searched the australian Google and foud this recipe. It was great! I really loved it! I am going to prepare it for my parents as well as they have lived in Perth and they miss the chilli mussels (among other things). And I gave the recipe to a collegue who is going to prepare it this weekend.
Thank you!
I cooked this recipe with my boyfriend for Valentines Day today, he loved it! The flavour was fantastic. We however didn't think it made enough sauce for 2kg of mussels may increase the amount next time. Also we added a few more large chopped chillies for extra hotness! YumYum.
I also lived in Perth for a few years and just loved the seafood. This recipe is sooo good,Thanks
The recipe provides information that is really easy to follow. The mussels tastes awesome!! We added half a cup of wine for the sauce though and lotsa chili to make it extra spicy. =) Thanks!!
Having recently returned from Perth to sunny ole England I was after a recipe for one of my favourite meals while I was there, and I think I found it. Superb
This recipe says a lot about the simple, tasty, chilled out style of Perth! (I'm also from Perth)Delicious!
this was a yummy veriation but i made a couple of changes.I added 375ml of campbells fish stock instead of water and still added about 1/2 cup white wine,at the end of 40min.i added 1/2 cup cream. BEAUTIFUL
superb. don't be shy with the garlic and the basil. that's what makes it so nice. good to see other Perthites enjoying WA mussels as well
This was great. We lived in Perth for a few years and have been searching for a good spicy mussel recipe for years. This was perfect. Very quick to make and pretty foolproof. This is a regular with us now. Thanks so much for posting it.

FABULOUS!!!!!! These were great as written but I was also looking for a recipe for sweet crepes so modified this slightly the second time. Added 1 tablespoon of sugar and 2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract. Topped with a little butter, sugar and a squeeze of lemon -- and am very happy it made more than the recipe said in my 6 inch pan -- perfect size for me. I plan to try it with savory additions next time -- like basil from the garden to see if the flavors will come through -- if so, I'll be making a ton of basil crepes to freeze for the winter.
Simple and delicious. Only thing i would change, add the flour last.
Why, oh why have I been afraid to try making crepes??? This recipe made me look like I have been making these for years and they are delicious -- tender, thin and yummy! I followed the recipe as written and got 11 8" crepes. I can't wait to try this recipe with a few modifications to make sweet and savory versions.
I would give this recipe 10 forks if I could. Absolutely PERFECT crepes every time. I got 10 10" crepes out of this recipe. Perfect thinness, color, and texture. Why crepes aren't a co-opted American staple is beyond me. I also found that if you let the crepes cool to room temperature with paper towels in between, you can store them for at least a week in the fridge in a Ziplock bag. I find that keeping a fresh fruit sauce (like strawberry shortcake sauce) in Tupperware makes a great grab and go breakfast with these.
I had always made crepe batter using a blender and my boyfriend requested crepes when I was visiting. His bachelor kitchen doesn't have many of appliances, ingredients or much in the way of cookware. I was so happy to find such a simple back to basics crepe recipe that only required a whisk, a large bowl, one frying pan and four ingredients, but yields delicious crepes. In fact it was so simple my boyfriend who can only cook the very basic of things managed to successfully make crepes using this recipe too. Seems like it is a great choice for kids learning how to cook or college students wanting a gourmet treat that is very inexpensive to make. Can't go wrong with the simplicity of a classic. The crepes are delicious and tender.
I love this recipe! It is so easy, reliable, and allows for flavor additions as desired: lemon zest, almond extract, etc.! Delicious, but certainly not a candidate for whole wheat flour, as it costs too much texture-wise.
An all time favorite at our house. Recipe says to refrigerate; I usually don't refrigerate and I use low fat milk; the end result is still wonderful. My kids like the crepes with just plain powdered sugar, the adults do ham and cheese and different fruit jams.
So yumy I make a super esay strawberry sauce and top it with that butter cinamon and honey. Fat free milk works fine
Yum! i made it for my family and it was a huge hit. i also made some cinnamon honey butter to put on top it was sooo good
What I like to do is mix the eggs and milk first, add a pinch of salt, a pint of sugar (for sweet crepes), 1/2 - 1 tsp of vanilla extract and whisk. then add flour and another pinch of nutmeg and cinnamon. Turns out PERFECT. Been making this for girlfriend a long time now and she loves smearing the crepes with nutella and strawberries.

This plugin has a number of bugs that are just plain dumb. Here are the fixes:
The search function just plain doesn't work. Why? Because it expects you to put the query in SQL syntax!!! That is, you can't search for example and expect http://www.example.com and http://www.example.net to come up; you have to search for %example% instead! Since partial searches are obviously what you want in this function, look in domain_mapping.php for the line containing
WHERE domain LIKE %s and change the text after it from
$domain to
'%'.$domain.'%'. From then on, search will work.
The list of mapped domains is limited to the first twenty or so. That would be OK if there were a paging system, but there isn't one. So look in domain_mapping.php for the text
LIMIT 0,20 and delete it. After that, it will display all the lines!
Function dm_edit_domain() gives a warning about an uninitialised object. To fix it, insert a line above
$row->blog_id = ''; that says
$row = new stdClass();. The warning is harmless but careless. Plugins should never emit warnings - they're a sign that the programmer hasn't tested their work.

Is Oral Chelation as Good as Intravenous Chelation?
…chelation. I have received several advertisements promoting oral chelating agents that are supposed to clean out all toxic metals in the body and unclog arteries. Do they work? Are there any natural oral chelating agents that are useful for removing toxic metals from the body? I don't know of any product…Read More

New Version of Calibre Brings a Slew of Improvements
Productivity Sauce
Calibre receives at least a couple of updates every month. Most of them feature minor improvements and bug fixes. But once in a while, Calibre's developers push a major update that brings new features along with some significant enhancements and improvements. Case in point: the latest 0.9 release that packs a raft of new stuff.
The new version supports the MTP protocol for USB connected devices. This means that Calibre can now properly handle Android devices. When you connect an Android device to your computer, Calibre automatically detects it and treats it as a regular reading device.
A lot of work has been done to improve Calibre's library management capabilities. This includes better handling of large libraries and the ability to monitor specific directories. When you place ebooks to the directory, Calibre automatically adds them to the library. The new version of Calibre also supports conditional coloring of the columns in the library list, which lets you apply different colors to columns based on user-defined conditions.
Calibre's conversion engine has been tweaked and improved, too. The application can now handle Amazon's new KF8 format, so you can convert ebooks to and from this format. The new version also brings improvements to Calibre's PDF output. The application can now properly handle text and images at the bottom of the page without cutting them off, and the table of contents is now converted to PDF bookmarks in the output file.
The ebook viewer module in the new version sports a new paged mode, where you can view more than one page at a time. The viewer also sports a full-screen mode, and it can properly display TeX and MathML formulas. In addition to that, the view now supports themes, and you can easily switch between them.
All in all, version 0.9 is a solid update that brings many improvements to an already excellent application.comments powered by Disqus

As my opinion tends to move markets I must publicize that I am a Vertex bear at this point. I've purchased both long and short term calls having taken profits from my longstanding JNJ short position . It wouldn't be fair if I didn't disclose these actions.
Sentiment: Strong Buy
So you are in debt up to your neck because of your short position. How is that going to move markets?
Sentiment: Hold
up 4% on low volume. what is driving this junk higher???? geez, 38 was overvalued
Ooooh, is Chevy losing his #$%$ or what?
