Alphonse Mucha (July 14, 1860-July 24, 1939) was born in the Southern Moravian town of Ivan_ice in the present-day Czech Republic, and is widely considered to be the master of the Czech Art Nouveau style. Mucha's distinctive posters and advertisements, many featuring female figures, are notable for their creative use of color palettes, intricate gilding, and lettering. His love and study of drawing began at an early age, and his artistic education continued when, in 1887, he moved to Paris, to study and work producing illustrations for advertisements and magazines. In the early 1890s, Mucha began designing posters featuring the actress Sarah Bernhardt, gaining him widespread success. In addition to his advertisements for liquors, cigarettes, and theatrical events, Mucha is known for his serial prints, which cover a range of subjects such as the four seasons, the times of day, and the arts. Though his style was considered outdated at the time of his death, his lithographs and posters have become internationally recognized for their importance to the Art Nouveau movement.

Don't let the frilly box fool you. Inside lurks a mocking demon wrapped in plastic, covered with cardboard just waiting to be assembled. And like the sirens of yore who lured gullible sailors to their deaths with their sweet song, those pretty Disney princesses — Belle, Snow White, Cinderella and Tiana — may look like they're all smiles and good times, but they're really a frustrating nightmare of confusing directions, stripped bolts and enough Daddy-hurled curse words that Sheriff Buford T. Justice would blush.
But I promised Jellybean a bike, and a bike she was going to have.
It's been something of a long-standing dream of mine, ever since I first saw her winking up at me from that grainy sonogram photo (and hence nicknamed her Jellybean), to teach her how to ride a bike. I was also looking forward to the day she'd be old enough that we could read Shel Silverstein books before bed, play Tom Waits songs as lullabies and eventually take her to her first KISS concert … and yes, they'll still be touring, spitting fire and gyrating to "Love Gun" no matter how silly it might sound, because pyro makes everything look cool.
I remember teaching The Diva to ride a bike. It was probably the first moment that I actually felt like a parent and it's one of my most treasured photos — that and the one of her trying to look all tough with her first skinned-knee. We went out to a parking lot — me, The Diva, My Lovely Wife and her sister — and pushed The Diva around. It was freezing and she squealed like her bangs were on fire, but it's one of the most ingrained memories of my marriage and my young family.
Sadly, the lessons didn't really take — not because The Diva didn't enjoy riding her bike, but rather because we lived at the top of a hill so steep that coasting down it would've given Tony Hawk goose bumps. By the time we moved to Columbus, The Diva was way too cool to ride a bike … and too tall.
I don't expect to recreate that. Mainly because Jellybean will be working off training wheels and I won't secretly be rooting for her to pull a face-plant and make herself ugly so that little boys will stop paying attention to her. That'll come in time.
What I do want to recapture is that joy I felt riding my own bike. I had a Mongoose, and it was rad. I couldn't do any tricks — save for popping the occasional wheelie that usually ended with my butt on the pavement.
It was the Mongoose that used to get me to Putt-Putt for the All-Day Saturday Fun Day special, where after spending a king's ransom in tokens I'd finally have enough Skee-Ball tickets to make off with that sweet, gold screaming eagle necklace. And it was the Mongoose that used to take me riding by Missy James' house … in that John Cusack with a boom box, "Say Anything" way, not creepy boy on a bike, Lifetime movie kind of way.
The princess bike will give me the chance to chase after memories with Jellybean, the way I did with her sister. It's what dads do, assuming I can put the freakin' thing together.
Let the cussin' begin.

Comments On Apr 20, 2014:V Force 3 reeds will make your throttle like the most crispy, tasty bacon your mama ever cooked. They gave my bike crispy bacon throttle. uhmmm... bacon. Crisp!

Comments On Apr 15, 2014:Can't beat the performance upgrade (throttle response, bike runs crisper after re-jetting). But it's a known issue that these LEAK even if using both gaskets. Make sure to seal both sides of both gaskets with Black Silicone to prevent an air leak and melting your piston.

Comments On Feb 07, 2014:These are a great buy and are worth every penny. It made my sons bike run with my 2003 CR125. It changed it to have more low end, mid range and high end power. Best thing we have done for his bike.

Comments On Dec 16, 2013:This intake helped my bike alot. The only jetting changes I had to make was a turn of the air screw. Will buy again if I get another bike that needs a boost in power.
Was this review helpful?
Comments On Dec 17, 2013:This intake works good for me. And amazingly from what I thought would be, I didnt even have to rejet much. But yet I noticed more power and my plug reading got darker. This lets me know I'm now getting the flow I was already capable of, if the stock cage wasnt holding it back. Definately worth the money.
Was this review helpful?
Comments On May 07, 2013:Pretty simple installation with no trimming required on my patucular bike. Not a big power increase but it got rid of the huge hit in the mid range and gave me a little more bottom so the bike is much more rideable now. Price could be a little lower though.
Was this review helpful?
Comments On Mar 04, 2013:This is the third bike that I've installed vforce 3 reeds in and am completely satisfied with my purchases. These reeds DRAMATICALLY improve the acceleration and throttle response. With these reeds you can just slightly tap the throttle and your bike will be standing on the back wheel.

Hip-hop group Beastie Boys are facing a new copyright lawsuit just days after the death of bandmember Adam Yauch.
Bosses at music label Tuf America launched a legal battle against the Intergalactic hitmakers last week, alleging the band illegally sampled Trouble Funk's Say What and Drop The Bomb on four of its early tunes - The New Style, Car Thief, Shadrach, and Hold It, Now Hit It.
Tuf America chiefs are seeking a trial to determine the appropriate amount of damages, according to AllHipHop.com.
The papers were filed at the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York on Thursday, just one day before Yauch, also known as MCA, plunged the music world into shock and mourning by losing his three-year battle with cancer.

At the end of the season (including playoffs) All I want to hear is... in the voice of Pat Bowlen.... "This... Ones... For... PEYTON!!!"
note: the ... is for the pauses, Pat Bowlen always pauses in between words before he can finish a sentence. Anyways GO DENVER BRONCOS!!!!
To all the Chiefs fans saying Denver is overrtated and the Chiefs are for real, (I've read a lot of posts like this on the Chiefs forums) The Chiefs have only scored 31 points once, and that was against a BAD Giants Defense. Their second highest score was 28 against the Jaguars (enough said), The Broncos, this season has never scored less than 33, against a team that is all around better than the Chiefs, a game Denver should of won by double digits, except we had to many turnovers to overcome, and we almost did until Ronnie Fumbleman fumbled on 1st and goal, the game was still winnable. So anyone who thinks the Chiefs even have a chance is crazy, anything can happen in the NFL, I will give you that, but the way its looking is highly unlikely!
Look at the teams the Chiefs have played, not a single one with a winning record, I know the Broncos haven't played the top caliber teams either so far, but we have proven again and again that we are the better team, scoring 31 points in the 4th quarter is the same as the chiefs scoring 31 points for the whole game... We are just a better team and I have a really good feeling we will destroy the Chiefs both times we play them, just like last season when DT and PFM had their best games of the season....
Chiefs fans do you remember Eric Deckers and DT amazing catches in week 17? What was the final score? Oh yeah thats right, Chiefs got owned!! Alex Smith has 1 TD pass in the last 4 weeks, they are getting lucky more than they are winning in style, unlike the Broncos.
Chiefs will make the playoffs but with a game manager QB and slow offense their over powered defense can only do so much. (I do respect the Chiefs Defense) I am A Broncos fan, but I live in California, an hour away from SF, so Ive seen most of Alex Smiths games (before harbaugh) and all I can say is ugly.... Alex Smith is in for a world of hurt. Thanks for reading and GO DENVER BRONCOS!!!!!

The name on many lips and in as many record stashes by now, Basic Soul Unit aka Stuart Li graces us with Podcast #006 – a very cool, soaring techno mix also featuring his track 'Late Night Shift' soon to be out on the Midnight Shift label. We are grateful to have this insightful interview from our affable Torontonian. Scroll down to hit play on the mix.
Journalists don't always get it right. How would you personally describe your music?
Hard to describe myself. I like things to sound slightly raw but generally I try to maintain the groove and have an underlying warmth and soulfulness. Here's an excerpt from a review of my latest EP on New Kanada "…as though concrete walls were wrapped in cotton batting" (Philip Sherburne). I thought that was a pretty cool description.
NK29 - Deep Diving EP - Basic Soul Unit by New Kanada
Has your sound evolved in any way since you first started out?
I guess I've been trying to pay more attention to the design of the sound, trying to create a bit more of an atmosphere. Trying to strip things down a bit, not literally in a 'minimal' sense but just using what I feel is essential to convey the music instead of over embellishing it.
What is your philosophy of growing as an artist?
To keep your mind open, to always keep learning and explore. To maintain a sense of naivety and to make mistakes that I can learn from.
When and how did you first get noticed?
I had released music on a couple of local labels (Iwanai and Do Right) around 2003. One day I noticed that one of the tracks appeared on a Versatile Records radio show. So I emailed Gilb'r (label head and one half of Chateau Flight) to say thanks. He then told me if I had any new music to send it his way. I did and these became the Soul Patterns EP on Versatile. That really helped to bring my music to a wider audience. Versatile was and still is one of the labels I respect most because they follow their own path.
What kind of scene did you arise from, or do you find yourself not affiliated to any in particular?
In the late 80's and early 90's I was listening to a lot of House and Hip Hop through the college and university stations. Then in the early to mid 90's I went to a lot of afterhours warehouse parties where DJs were playing mostly house (with a bit of techno before it splintered off). So I guess you could say I came up mostly from the House scene. Later on, I also got into 'Acid Jazz', Soul, Funk, Disco, Latin, Brazilian, Broken Beat, bit of Drum n Bass…well the list goes on. So I was very much a part of the Eclectic Jazz/Broken Beat thing (around 2000). In fact I'm still part of an eclectic Jazz/Soul/Funk based night in Toronto called Footprints (which is into our 9th year) as well as a Broken Beat night called 4WRD (no relation to the UK bass night, we didn't know about it)! Now I am just into good music whatever the genre.
In what ways is Toronto a good place for a musician to be?
It's very multi-cultural, and we have influences from all sides. While that may be true nowadays anywhere with the Internet, back in the day it was a real revelation to me. When I grew up in Hong Kong as a kid, I was only familiar with HK Pop and some Western pop. Suddenly when I came to Canada, I was listening to Hip Hop, House, Reggae, Soca, and Latin and more. Also we were influenced as much from NYC as Detroit or Chicago and European sounds. The down side was that Toronto never really had its own distinct sound, although I think that is starting to change with all the producers getting attention from Toronto at the moment.
What are your top 5 secret weapons when you play at a gig?
It's hard to have secret weapons this day and age when everything can be at your finger tips via Discogs or illegal downloads but here's 5 that often find their way into my sets, not in any particular order:
Liz Torres – Can't Get Enough (Dub)
Niko Marks – Hueman Density
Reggie Dokes – Sanctuary
Those Guys – Love, Love, Love
Juno Download Mp3/WAV | Amazon US 256kbps Mp3 | iTunes 256kbps AAC
Relics & Artifacts – Sun God
Juno Download Mp3/WAV | Amazon US 256kbps Mp3 | iTunes 256kbps AAC
Could you let us in on your production method or thinking/feeling behind your tracks?
Mostly I've been using Reason (it's true). I've never been a gear head or tech geek. The affordability and accessibility to digital production is what allowed me to get into it. That said, I've recently bought a bit of gear so learning that and hoping to incorporate them into my workflow. There is no routine process, sometimes I start with a beat, sometimes a sound, at other times a melody in my head. The creative process is never predictable.
CDR Berlin Workshop BASIC SOUL UNIT (Toronto) from CDR on Vimeo.
What is in your opinion is an example of a fine production, past or current?
Hm, hard to narrow it down. Theo Parrish, Moodymann, Pepe Bradock, I:Cube are some of the older names. A few producers I've been feeling recently are Vakula, DJ Qu, Portable, Cosmin TRG. I like theyir productions not necessarily because they are expertly produced or sound "proper" but they have their own unique sound and character.
How do you manage to balance your work and other commitments?
Not easily to say the least, but having an understanding and patient wife certainly helps. Also I do graphic design from home, so that allows my schedule to be a bit more flexible. When I need to be away for a couple weeks I can still work from abroad during the weekdays. Still I never feel like I have enough time to make music.
Do you have a music hero?
From a dance music perspective, Larry Heard definitely…for me a perfect balance between soulful and jacking, techno and house. Also he seems to be very humble and does not let his status and success get in the way. That's also inspiring.
What have you learnt from being in the industry for so long?
Being as I don't do music for my main source of income, what I've learned is to be just make music honestly. Make music you can stand behind and be happy with. But at the same time, also take chances and opportunities as they come. Don't be afraid to put yourself out there.
If you could cite your inspirations who or what would they be?
The music community inspires me (DJs, producers, clubbers, music lovers). At home or traveling, meeting people, talking about music, life, getting feedback and encouragement from people. Seeing other people do their thing. Being on the dance floor and seeing what moves people. This is all inspiring.
What keeps you motivated?
It doesn't take a lot to motivate me. I just love music. Listening to it, making it, selecting it for the dance floor. Even if I never had any success I would still be doing it. I guess it goes back to the previous point, when it's a passion and not a business, it makes it easier.
Top 10 on the charts right now?
Again in no particular order:
Steven Tang – Bass Synergy (Emphasis)
Kevin Reynolds – Liaisons (NSYDE)
Vakula – Untitled (Shevchenko)
Afrikan Sciences – Spirals (Deep Blak)
C-Beams – Strollin' (with Tina Slotta) (Uncanny Valley)

Peter Van Hoesen – Axis Mundi (Ostgut Ton)
Juno Download Mp3/WAV
Vozmediano – There's a Light (Rolando remix)
Juno Download Mp3/WAV | Amazon US 256kbps Mp3 | iTunes 256kbps AAC
Basic Soul Unit – Late Night Shift (Midnight Shift)
Portable – Into Infinity LP (Perlon)
Recloose – UHF (Fingertips)
Juno Download Mp3/WAV | Amazon US 256kbps Mp3
Finally, what are you looking forward to in 2012?
I am really hoping to get an album together. The thought was first put into my head by Still Music a few years back. Through distribution problems, it never happened. Which in hindsight was probably a good thing. At that time I looked at it as an opportunity and a challenge. But now through experience and maturation, I think I finally have something coherent to say that might be worth the format. Still Music is back on track now so it may happen soon.
About 'Late Night Shift'?
As with most if not all my tracks, I never really start out with a strong idea or theme. I basically just noodled around with beats and sounds until the track started taking shape. However I did have in mind to doing something funky and hope that was the result.

Sheep in a Kerry field
Sheep in a Kerry field Wooah, digging into the archives here. This was shot in September 2006 while on holiday in Dingle. It's a field on Slea Head at the tip of the Dingle Peninsula. It's hard to see in the web version but I love the brooding clouds in the large image!

THIS IS A MUST!!!! SF Quality on the Peninsula! – This restaurant is amazing! I have been going here for years, and then moved to New York for a few years. I am now back and am happy to see that my favorite spot is still turning out excellent dishes, sophisticated services and an all-around great night every time I go. It is no shock that most who go to Carpaccio have been coming for years. Try the carpaccio, ciya salad, calzones, and chicken paillard -- these are some of my favorites. I usually am not one to write a review, but a place like this deserves a shout out -- if you are in Menlo Park or nearby, go to Carpaccio! You won't be disappointed.
Its like comming home... Bella – One thing I love about Carpaccio, is that its like your home away from home. The customers and staff are all so familiar. The waitstaff are the same people that have been there for the last 10 years it seems. The food is consistently good! The bar is fun to hang out with fun loving locals, and with the even more fun loving bar tenders. Its great for families too.. thats my 2 cents.. Ohh and If you cant get a reservation, I walk in anyway, and they do thier best to squeeze me in....
Not bad – I had dinner at Carpaccio last night with a friend. I agree that service can be better, but was adequate and efficient. Food was quite good -- the soup du jour was a clam chowder that was very well done. I had veal -- the meat itself was a bit on the bland side, but overall the dish was quite tasty. Dessert was fine as well. Prices for entrees, I think, are mid range given the area - comparable to say, Don Giovanni in Mountain View - hovering around $14 - $18 for the most part. I won't say this is a place where I'd like to go every week, but I'd go back every now and then.
Horrible attitude toward customers – This was a terrible experience. I ordered seafood cannelloni - but it had a strange metallic taste. I tried a few more bites to see if I could get used to it (I was with my boyfriend and didn't anything disruptive) but I couldn't and had to return it. The waiter got the hostess and she removed the plate. When the bill came only 50% was taken off for my dish! I was shocked - the hostess claimed that only 50% was taken off because I had eaten half of it. What?! Even if I had eaten half the meal was so bad I returned it! The hostess basically accused me of lying about the dish quality. She was so self righteous, saying she didn't think the dish was metally. This was all literally over $10. I had enough of her, left the extra $10, and will never return.
Terrible service – Do not eat here unless you don't mind having things spilled on you without apology or offer of dry cleaning unless you beg for it!!!
What happened was: a busboy clearing dishes spilled olive oil on my father's lap. Without a word, he handed my father a napkin and proceeded to walk away. After ten minutes had passed, I flagged down our watier who proceeded to defer the matter to a manager. After some time, the manager appeared and after I explained the situation, asked what I wanted done about it! Any other restaurant worth its salt would have immediately apologized and offered to pay to have my father's pants cleaned. Here, I had to ASK them and even then, the response was reluctant. Needless to say, I will never eat here again or recommend it to anyone.

That Haiku is slowly progressing to a stable state is a very good thing. It is a breath of fresh air that we will be able to use an open source operating system that is not plagued by the old design flaws in the Linux operating system (and the other *nix'es).
I just hope they don't go completely nuts with the package management system, though. IMO one of the biggest hurdles Linux has when it comes to being open for commercial software has been the lack of wide spread installers. Package managers with central repositories leads to dependency hell and distributes old versions of software between OS updates. If the Haiku system has a workaround for this (without patching the system, as Ubuntu does with it's PPAs etc), I would love to head about it. How many times I've tried to install a Linux software package from a 3rd party site, only to find out it needs compiling and hacking. Download the Mac or Windows package, and it installs within two minutes, working, dependencies and all...

This image shows the top half of the front page of The Sioux City Journal's Sunday, April 22, 2012, edition, featuring a full-page piece to an anti-bullying editorial after a gay teen committed suicide. The Sioux City Journal's front-page opinion piece calls on the community to be pro-active in stopping bullying and urges members to learn more about the problem by seeing the acclaimed new film, "Bully," which documents the harassment of Sioux City middle school student. Relatives have said 14-year-old Kenneth Weishuhn Jr. suffered intense harassment, including threatening cellphone calls and nasty comments posted online, after coming out to family and friends about a month ago. He died April 15 from what the local sheriff's office described only as a "self-inflicted injury." (AP Photo/The Sioux City Journal)

Deputy Director
Office of Regulatory Policy, Farm Credit Administration

McLean, VA 22102-5090
Dear Mr. Mardock:
I'm writing this letter in opposition to the Farm Credit System (FCS)
petition against giving a voice to their member owners (say on pay) and in
support of the Farm Credit Administration's (FCA) final rule adopted last
The FCS is a government sponsored enterprise or GSE and they need to have
a high standard of accountability and transparency in their dealings. The
FCS is also structured as a cooperative and their members need to be
allowed to have a vote on the large pay packages of FCS CEOs, executives,
and senior officers.

Kane County Board Chairman Chris Lauzen
Updated: March 1, 2013 7:34PM
Kane County Board Chairman Chris Lauzen's initiative to create a deputy chair position within the board has died, after being put on hold by the County Board Administration Committee.
The board discussed the position, sent it back to committee when members could not reach a consensus. One board member suggested the post float between Republican and Democrat members on an annual basis. Others suggested the job description for the post seemed too similar to a legislative whip in Springfield, not something they wanted to add to county government.
Lauzen said he was disappointed, but that the board would move on accordingly.
"I think the board missed an opportunity, but I respect the input they gave me," he said.
Lauzen said the post was intended to be a leadership position that would give him someone to tap for public appearances to represent the board.
"I was looking for a little help to make us more visible," he said.
Lauzen said he has worked hard to this point to create balance within the board by appointing half the Republicans and half the Democrats serving as committee chairmen.
He said the deputy chairman position would have worked to create balance with the already existing vice chair position, now held by Republican Drew Frasz of Elburn.
Board member Mark Davoust, R-St. Charles, spoke out adamantly against the creating the deputy chairman position.
He was concerned that the board first chose to add two standing committees — for agriculture and jobs, in addition to this position.
"We're adding standing committees. Now we have a deputy chair, which sounds to me like a whip. It sounds like Springfield to me," he said.
Lauzen pointed out that the deputy chairman position would not have cost taxpayers any money.

VIA Introduces Most Thermal Efficient EPIA PX5000EG Pico-ITX Platform for Embedded Market
Nowadays board vendors emphasized much on high thermal efficient platform. Besides the hottest Intel Atom processor that was just launched recently, its competitor, VIA Technologies has just unveiled a highly thermal efficient X86 based architecture targeted for embedded world. Named as EPIA PX5000EG, it is one of the smallest form factor, Pico-ITX designed board that stands a great advantage in terms of performance per watt as compared to its competitors' products. The silicon manufacturer claimed that the maximum TDP (Thermal Design Power) of the processor draws less than one watt power suitable for fan-less applications.
The platform is powered by VIA Eden ULV (Ultra Low Voltage) processor running at 500MHz. Besides the great power efficiency, the platform measured at only 10 cm X 7.2 cm which is great to be embedded into some space constraint end products such as flat panel PC and digital signage. Not to be limited by its board space, it featured advanced video/audio ports such as LVDS and VGA ports for dual panel display simultaneously. Furthermore, fast Ethernet, USB host, both PATA (Parallel ATA) and SATA (Serial ATA) are the must have hard drive peripherals for various kind of different applications.
Combining all the small form factor and thermal efficient advantages into one, VIA Technologies believe this could be the right product to fight against the Intel Atom after its official release recently. Also, low price point of Eden processor could be the killing factor that put VIA Technologies into the right slot before the powerful VIA Isaiah processor comes into market.

Single Subject Credential Programs
California has a two-tier credential structure. A five year preliminary credential is the first credential issued
after an individual meets basic credential requirements. A clear credential is issued when all credential
requirements have been completed. A Single Subject Teaching Credential authorizes the holder to teach the specific subject(s) named on the credential in departmentalized classes such as those in most middle schools and high schools. However, a
teacher authorized for single subject instruction may be assigned to teach any subject in his or her authorized
fields at any grade level: preschool, grades K–12, or in classes organized primarily for adults. The statutory subjects available for California Single Subject Teaching Credentials are as follows:
- Art
- Biological Sciences (Specialized)
- Business
- Chemistry (Specialized)
- English
- Foundational-Level General Science
- Foundational-Level Mathematics

Serves 8
With notes of butterscotch, espresso, and bourbon, this is a pecan pie like no other.
For more pie recipes visit The Guide to Thanksgiving Dinner.
Position a rack in the center of the oven, set a heavy-duty rimmed baking sheet on the rack, and heat the oven to 375°F.
In a medium saucepan over medium heat, melt the butter and cook, swirling the pan occasionally, until the butter is brown, 3 to 5 minutes. Immediately whisk in the brown sugar, corn syrup, and Lyle's Golden Syrup until smooth. Remove the pan from the heat and let cool slightly. One at a time, whisk in the eggs. Whisk in the bourbon, espresso powder, vanilla, and salt. Stir in the chopped pecans.
Sprinkle half of the pecan halves in the piecrust, followed by the toffee candy pieces, and then the remaining pecan halves. Pour the syrup mixture over all.
Put the pie on the heated baking sheet and reduce the oven temperature to 350°F. Bake until set, 45 to 55 minutes, rotating the pan halfway through baking. When the pan is nudged, the center of the pie will no longer wobble, but the whole pie will jiggle just slightly, and the filling will bubble at the edges.
Transfer to a rack and cool completely before serving. The pie can be stored at room temperature for up to 2 days.

12/26/2013Simply the best pecan pie. I made two pies for Thanksgiving and two again for Christmas. Both times the pies turned out perfect. It has the perfect consistency and the depth of flavor is amazing. This pie is not overwhelmingly sweet like pecan pies made with Corn syrup alone.
by Onirazael,
11/28/2013No I havenot experienced that. Each time I have made this pie it has been a hit. IT is the perfect consistency.. BUT I cut out/down the burbon...so That may be it.
by jonij,
11/26/2013I made this pie once and it turned out PERFECTLY! Since then, I have struggled with the pie being too wet, even after an extended bake. I'm going to try cutting back the amount of corn syrup to see if that works. Has anyone else experienced this issue?
by TheIneptChef,
2/6/2013Let me start by saying that I am a pie virgin. This was my first time (baking, not eating, of course). I must also confess that I used a store-bought frozen crust (don't judge me). I would like to digress some more and say that when I die, I would like to be buried in a vat of Lyle's Golden Stuff. Back to the pie: the crust sprung a leak while baking, causing valuable pie goo to spill out onto my cookie sheet, welding my pie plate to the sheet in a mass of burnt, Lyle filling. I also need to confess that I did not move my oven rack to the middle of the oven (again, stop judging). So, the top of the pie was little burnt. Despite major ineptitude on my part, this was the best damn pecan pie I have ever eaten. I stopped short of taking the pie and a fork into the closet and eating it all before my family came home. The pie gods are happy.
by Dagnylovescooking,
11/24/2012Simply the best pecan pie recipe EVER!! I made this last Thanksgiving for the first time. I couldn't find Lyle's Golden syrup and used another brand. This year I found Lyle's at Whole Foods. It makes this great pie fabulous. Between the espresso powder,Heath bar and Lyle's the complexity of flavors was excellent. It's not your typical syrupy sweet pecan pie.
by ju1244,
12/19/2011Simply the best pecan pie I have ever eaten. Felt bad showing up my niece but it couldn't be helped. If you can't find Lyle's Golden Syrup, it can easily be made using an online recipe
by nancecook,
11/21/2011I made this pecan pie for Thanksgiving last year and it was one of the best pecan pies I have ever tasted! It got rave reviews from friends and family. The Lyle's Golden Syrup was truly the "secret" ingredient.
by affy,
11/13/2011This is amazing!! I made the pie as a test-run for Thanksgiving Day and it is definitely keeper.
by colliewag,
11/13/2011Made this last year at Christmas and it was a hit with everyone! Best pecan pie I've ever had! The golden syrup was a little hard to find but I did get it at CostPlus World Market. I can't wait to make it again this year for Thanks giving and Christmas!
by devbeth,
4/5/2011LOVE, LOVE, LOVE it! This was a big hit with the stomachs, er, people in my office. I'm going to add it to my permanent collection.
by chefjeff,
2/5/2011This pie was a stunner! Instead of the coffee adding a distinct flavor, it was more like an "umami" characteristic, if such a statement can be made about a dessert. While eating the pie, our dinner table became hushed and the only sounds were of contentment, as if we were all babies, grunting with pleasure. I think it's time to learn if Nicole Rees has dessert books out there, cuz she definitely knows her stuff. As a pretty prolific pie baker myself, I did some slight tweaking regarding the baking technique. I used an "un" baked all butter deep dish pie dough, and on the 2nd. from bottom oven rack, I baked the pie at 325º for approximately 1 hour and 25 minutes. Utterly ummmazing pie!
Cheers all,
by Spatterson4marykay,
11/8/2010This is the BEST pecan pie I've ever tasted. Easy to make and simply delicious!
by DorothyR,
10/12/2010Thank you so much for this recipe! Nicole, you ROCK! I made a slightly adapted version of it and it won 1st place in the 2010 Malibu Pie Contest (Seasonal category). Very easy recipe!

text: Home/ About Us/ News Item Lander choral groups to appear in gala Christmas concert November 26, 2012 Lander University's Old Main Singers and University Singers will join voices for a concert whose theme is "The People and Places of Christmas " on Thursday, Dec. 6, at 8 p.m., in Lander's Josephine B. Abney Cultural Center Auditorium. The concert is free and open to the public. Associate professor of music Dr. Chuck Neufeld will conduct the two choral groups with the assistance of Amy Blackwood on piano. Neufeld said he is excited about the concert. "Both choirs will be singing some well-loved Christmas music." Among the selections he mentioned are "Ave Maria," by Franz Biebl; "Caroling, Caroling," by Alfred Burt; "Good King Wenceslas," and more. Soprano Corrie Woods, a Lander student from Leavenworth, Kan., who performed in a summer opera workshop last summer, will be the soloist on the Appalachian carol, "I Wonder As I Wander." Professor emeritus of music Dr. Anthony Lenti and his student, Kelsie Detweiler, of Abbeville, will perform a piano duet arrangement of Bach's "Jesu, Joy of Man's Desiring." Student Kayla Goldman, a junior music education major from Greenwood, said of the concert, "We are being challenged by some pieces, but we are up to the challenge. It's going to be great." Neufeld said, "We have also included a little bit of fun and audience participation in this concert. I'm sure everyone will enjoy it." According to Neufeld, some members of the University Singers and Old Main Singers participated in a few of the best high school choral programs in South Carolina, while others are very new to choral singing. "These students are pursuing majors in many disciplines at Lander, but they work hard together to create exciting choral sounds and musical experiences."

"I figured, How could a few tanning-bed trips be that bad?" —Emilee Anne Alexander, 30
Risk factor: Occasional tanning-bed visits
"I admit, I wasn't always sun-smart. In college, I would hit the tanning bed before spring break to get a nice base so I wouldn't burn in Mexico. A tiny blemish I'd had for years on my left cheek started to grow; it turned out to be basal cell carcinoma. I was shocked—cancer had never crossed my mind, and now it was on the middle of my face! It sounds vain, but after I wrapped my mind around the fact that I had cancer, my biggest worry was having a scar. I was angry at myself for not taking better care of my skin. Now I was paying the price. My dermatologist, Ellen Marmur, M.D., recommended a procedure called Mohs surgery. It has a high success rate for basal cell skin cancer and removes only the smallest amount of skin necessary. Still, I was trembling beforehand. What if the scar didn't heal properly? A few days later, I got my driver's license renewed—swollen face, bandages, stitches and all. My scar has since faded, but that photo is a permanent image of pain that reminds me to never step near a tanning bed again."

Do not apply the patch to areas of skin that are irritated, oily, or to where lotions or powders have been applied.Contact with water (e.g., swimming, bathing) will not change the way the drug works. Avoid rubbing the patch area during these activities.If the area around the patch becomes red, itchy, or irritated, try a new site. If irritation continues or becomes worse, notify your doctor promptly.If the patch falls off, reapply it or apply a new patch and wear it until the next patch should be applied.When it is time to apply a new patch, remove the old one and dispose of it properly in the trash. Fold the sticky sides of the patch together and throw it away where it cannot be accidentally worn or swallowed by others, especially a child or pet.Apply the new patch to a different area of skin to prevent skin irritation. Do not apply a patch to the same area within 7 days.The length of treatment is determined by your doctor who may suggest periodic trials off the medication to see if you still need to be using it.Inform your doctor if your condition persists or worsens.

Garlic and Sapphires
The Secret Life of a Critic in Disguise
Ruth Reichl - Author
- eBook - ePub eBook: $13.99
"Pulls back the curtain on Reichl's six-year tenure at the New York Times...never less than fascinating." -The New York Times Book Review
Ruth Reichl, world-renowned food critic and editor in chief of Gourmet magazine, knows a thing or two about food. She also knows that as the most important food critic in the country, you need to be anonymous when reviewing some of the most high-profile establishments in the biggest restaurant town in the worlda charge she took very seriously, taking on the guise of a series of eccentric personalities. In Garlic and Sapphires, Reichl reveals the comic absurdity, artifice, and excellence to be found in the sumptuously appointed stages of the epicurean world and gives usalong with some of her favorite recipes and reviewsher remarkable reflections on how ones outer appearance can influence ones inner character, expectations, and appetites, not to mention the quality of service one receives.

"I'm a restaurant critic," I told the woman in the wig shop, "and I need a disguise that will keep me from being recognized."
"That's a new one on me," she said. "Do you have a special restaurant you're working on at the moment?"
"Yes," I said, remembering the fragrant aroma of the soup I had eaten on my last visit to Lespinasse. When I dipped my spoon into the broth shimeji mushrooms went sliding sensuously across my tongue with the lush texture of custard. I tasted lemongrass, kaffir lime, mushroom and something else, something that hovered at the edge of my mind, familiar but elusive. I took another taste and it was there again, that sweetness, hiding just behind the citrus. It came whirling into my consciousness and then slid maddeningly away before I could identify it.
"The food was wonderful," I told her, "but I think they made me. Everything's been just a little too perfect. So I want a foolproof disguise."
"Try this," she said, opening a drawer and pulling out a cascade of hair the color of Dom Perignon. As the wig caught the light the color changed from pearl to buttercup.
The hair fell across my face as gently as silk. I squeezed my eyes tight, not wanting to look until it was seated right. I could feel it settle into place, feel the soft strands graze my shoulders just below my ears.
"Wait!" she cried as my eyes started to open, and she leaned forward and tugged at the wig, adjusting it. "Okay," she said at last, "you can open your eyes now."
The champagne blonde in the mirror did not seem to be wearing a wig. The hair looked real, as if it were growing out of the scalp. Even the dark eyebrows looked right, as if this woman had so much confidence she didn't care who knew that she dyed her hair. My mouth dropped open. "Oh!" I said stupidly, "oh my."
I don't think I would have recognized myself if we had met walking down the street, and I had yet to put on any makeup. Somehow this cut, this color, made my cheeks pink, my eyes almost violet, my lips seem redder than they had ever been. I felt new, glamorous, bursting with curiosity. What would life be like for the woman in the mirror?
"You were meant to be blonde!" cried the saleswoman, packing the wig into an old-fashioned hatbox. She looked wistfully at the hair and said, "You'll come back and tell me what happens, won't you?"
"You mean whether I'm recognized at Lespinasse?"
"Well," she said, "that too. But what I mostly want to know is—do blondes really have more fun?"
