Food Packaging that Drives You Crazy!
Those resealable (salad) greens bags... it says "Pull Here," hah! I always render them unresealable.
re: Sarah
I hate all of those "resealable" bags! Usually I fail to open them properly and destroy the bag. But then there are other products that have them and the two sides of the zip don't line up and they don't reseal anyway. I don't even try anymore. I open them the way I want and close them up using my own clip.
re: Sooeygun
re: dragonchowmein
A lone dissent here - I really *like* the resealable hot dog packages. I forget what brand they were (probably Oscar Meyer) but I found it really handy. I live alone and can only eat 2 at a time (well, I could stuff another one in but try not to) so I appreciate them being kept fresh. Oh, and bacon packages as well! I love the "zipper" that reseals my package. I've always had a problem keeping bacon fresh after opening the package. And shredded cheese - not very Chow-worthy, but I do buy it once in awhile for certain quickie meals. The zipper keeps the whole mess fresh for up to two weeks.
re: Catskillgirl
I saw the title of this thread and was just going to come in here and sream.... BACON!!! I see you mentioned it. My pettest of peeves is the ridiculous packaging methods used for bacon. Our local pork people haven't gotten on the ziplock bandwagon, and I have searched the bins looking for zip lock bacon. All for naught. All of our bacon is sealed, plastic to plastic, vaccumed up against the bacon. You have to use scissors and cut around the package, and then it can't be closed. You have to put the whole works into another plastic bag, and everything becomes covered in bacon fat. Ugh. Maybe I need to use my bacon salt more often!
re: juliasqueezer
I don't use bacon that often, and my wife doesn't eat it, so when I buy a pound I immediately separate it into portions of 3 - 4 rashers each, wrap each portion airtight in plastic wrap, and freeze them. To use, I unwrap a packet, nuke for one minute on a plate between two paper towels, and it's ready to fry.
re: juliasqueezer
re: Sarah
I don't like when chocolate bars have an inner foil wrapper that's glued shut and impossible to open without making an unsightly ripped-up foil mess and I'm forced to just eat the entire bar in one go so I don't have to look at the destroyed packaging. I'm sure the sealed foil is really essential for keeping the chocolate fresh during periods of prolonged storage, but… let's just say I have never encountered that particular problem.
Unfortunately, if those caps that are of the "tamper indicating" type, they need help from a heavy duty utility knife to score the ring perforations. Another mechanically inclined individual uses a roller style glass cutter on the ring perforation seam. The local plumber uses his pipe cutter to assist his wife in the related matter.
Just remember Chowhounds, we need to be a "Jack of All Trades" to pull things off, from time to time. Proper tools for the job hasn't been developed yet, so we have to adjust.
Bread or rolls in bags that are closed with cellophane tape and not a twist tie or plastic fastener. There supposedly is a way to open these without making a hole in the bag, but I haven't figured it out. Even Walmart has reverted back to twist ties, so the supermarkets are just lagging (and cheap).
re: RGC1982
Ack! I'm with you on this.
Give me a twist-tie or just a spin of the bag and I'll take care of it. The super-sticky tapes as fasteners are insidious, and we have had many us-v-them-moments trying to preserve the bag, and therefore bread-freshness. (And hey! Bread isn't cheap anymore!)
I save some of my sturdier bread bags, washed and dried, and go to my stash of twist ties when I run into this. But I still get irritated.
Is the sticky tie really a cost saving? Anyone know?
So curious,
re: RGC1982
I use a mini scissors to slide and snip (up the width) of the ring portion of the tape. Peel the bag from the cut area from the tape to avoid tearing.
Other suggestions include a sewing tool called (I believe called a seam ripper) to run up the tape ring . Razor hobby hook knife to cut a slit in the ring area.
BTW I haven't seen them use cellophane tape, yet, but a narrow (normally red) paper tape. The packaging industry created a poly bag sealer as a cost cutting measure over manual twist ties. The industry also has to deal liabilities created with the use of twist ties and plastic tab closures being a choke hazard.
re: RShea78
re: RShea78
Heck, I might as well declare my overly-filled drawer of twist ties a treasure trove of green-thinking if these things are going away. Choking? Give me a break. Kids can choke on a pea, for cripes sake. We still keep feeding them peas.
If we use twist ties, we can reuse bags. If the bags are closed with super-sticky tape, we often can't. Is the future of our children better served with loads of ripped up, taped plastic bags, versus a few twist ties (that really, when you think about it, are recyclable)?well, huh?
re: cayjohan
Well, the potential choking hazard is small cookies compared to that of a child's perforated intestinal tract (via, wire tie ingestion). Going green still requires some foresight so it doesn't create another problems.
Believe it or not- stores could use the self sticking plastic wrap, but because the process requires a short puff of heated air, they would have to add a styrofoam tray (or some insulating insert). They could resize a fold over style of bag similar to that of a sandwich bag, to avoid tape. Instead, they seem to the route of doing things the hard way, making our lives miserable.
re: RShea78
Point taken, RShea. Hadn't thought of that. Still, parental supervision keeps a lot of stuff out of kids' mouths: pennies, cat vomit, slugs, unknown plants, cognac, bobby pins, candles, ad infinitum.
Oh, and twist ties.
On self sticking wraps: if we have Post-its, why can't we have a resealable bread tape? (I still like my archived twist-ties...grin.) Nice idea, despite my problems with the stick-um industry.
re: cayjohan
""Still, parental supervision keeps a lot of stuff out of kids' mouths...""
My nephew was once a food sneaker that learned his lesson quickly, when he swiped a Jalapeno pepper from the pizza box. Oddly, at the moment, we were discussing the leather muzzle mask that Anthony Hopkins wore when filming "Silence of The Lambs". And too bad there wasn't a child's version...
The Californian salad mixes (usually mâche with something...) that come in those humongous, ridiculously large rectangular plastic containers. What an ecological disaster. Plus, they take up an enormous amount of space in your garbage. Are you supposed to reuse them? If so, for what? I hardly ever buy them anymore, even though I really dig those salads....

re: meatn3
In my bss aackwards City, only plastic dairy style jugs are recycled. Labels along with the cap and related material must be removed or face some recycling citation. Recently, we had a new neighbor that moved in that failed to ask about the City's trash/recycling procedures. I think they got to meet the entire City's Police force with their new Paddy Wagon.
re: meatn3
re: somervilleoldtimer
That reminds of what I do with clear plastic egg cartons, the new kind that fold in three. They are recyclable where I live but I found that on the odd occasion when we make chocolate-dipped strawberries, these babies are perfect for storing and transporting the chocolate strawberries. They are kept separate each nested in a bit of parchment paper in its own compartment, safe from bumps and bruising. And you can see them! (which means that some prematurely disappear)
re: linguafood
yes, and now that wine bottles are also going the way of the screwtop on occasion, i've had the experience with those as well !
I had the misfortune of getting a wonky bottle of sriracha last time, and the squirt top never did seem to get in the right place to let anything out.
Ditto on the "resealable" packages that are impossible to re-seal, difficult screw tops and bread without twist ties. Another thing that annoys me are the soda fridge packs - I can't ever get the opening part torn off right and if you mess it up too badly all the sodas spill out. I also hate wide-mouth bottled drinks.
re: akq
re: akq
Here's a handy-dandy little tip for those soda fridge boxes (if you do manage to remove the center part successfully!) I keep one in my pantry to store plastic grocery bags. Whenever I get them I empty them and stick them in the box - they stay out of the way but are easily accessible. And I do re-use them until they shred, which is the only reason that they do come home from the store with me!
I hate it when I spend ten minutes trying to open a bag of chips with my teeth and only then notice the "easy open notch". Oops.
Also: cardboard cartons of milk or cream. That little fold-out spout NEVER folds out like it's supposed to.
re: mordacity
Very true on the milk cartons. I now buy my half-n-half with the spout on the side. But the little grenade pull seal is dangerous too - it takes so much force to pull it off that there is almost always a spill! But at least once they are open, I know they will be airtight when closed.
re: meatn3
re: Catskillgirl
re: meatn3
meatn3, I would hate to see you in the bless-ed AM, trying to peel the sealed top off of one of those portion "thimble" creamers. ;-)
Just yesterday, I saw a well dressed executive types, with exploded cream all over his dark suit. His buddy said, "smooth move exlax" and the rest of the conversation isn't suitable for repeating.

re: cimui
re: cimui
re: mpjmph
Where I used to live the recycle pick-up guys would put them back into your container if the spouts had not been removed. They were vigilant.
The rules seem to vary wildly from town to town. I guess it just depends on where the municipality is sending the stuff off to next. Or perhaps it depends on how the the information is interpreted by the town officials.
I hate anything in celophane packaging. Whether it's cookies, tortilla chips, or anything else, the bag always splits down the side and the contents spill on the floor. even if it doesn't split, you can't fold or roll the bag so it stays closed...so you have to eat the whole bag cookies lest they go stale.
re: al b. darned
My kitchen has plenty of scissors as I refuse to open those kind of bags any other way. You see, I wised up as a kid going through the emotional loss of my food that landed up all over the floor. Seen the Hardee's commercial?
My kitchen also has plenty of those office "Bulldog #4 Clips" (cheaper by the dozen) that I first fold and roll down the bag for re-closing.
I hate the condiment/sauce bottles with both a tamper-proof plastic wrapper AND a foil seal over the neck of the bottle (under the lid). I can never remember which brand has them and which doesn't, so I look like a complete doofus banging on the bottom of my newly-opened oyster sauce bottle, saying things like "This sauce is REALLY thick", only to realise that I have bought a brand where I have to unscrew the lid and remove the foil thingy.
I just bought three jars of Classico spaghetti sauce at Cosco because my homemade meatballs "drank up" almost all my homemade sauce. I was gonna have spaghetti and meatballs tonight but I just gave up and froze the meatballs with the little bit of sauce that was left. I could not get the glass jars open. And the big plastic containers of mixed nuts at Costco are really hard for me to open also.

re: givemecarbs
I don't have any magic jar opening tool beyond what's in the cutlery drawer. When I can't get the lid off a jar (as opposed to a small mouth bottle) I tilt the jar in my left hand and strike the top edge of the lid sharply with the handle of an old table knife several places around the lid. I've been doing this since my grandfather taught me the trick when I was a little kid. NEVER had it fail! Even with arthritis in my hands now.
Just to be sure the method is clear, you hold the jar at an angle, then strike downward in the direction the lid unscrews. Works on peanut butter, pickles, jellies and jams, spaghetti sauce, and anything else that comes in a jar. '-)
re: givemecarbs
I had a salsa jar that DH bought that was similar...gave it a firm whack on the bottom, usually that's enough, this time it took a few taps on top with a butter knife to loosen the seal. I hear you about the Costco nuts too - my MIL is a fan of their cashews. I find the lids waay to big for my hands.
These days I find myself buying nuts and beans etc in bulk and buying glass jars with the wire bail & rubber ring closure for storage... (keeps me from losing say a bag of lentils in a sea of plastic bags and buying more when I don't need to).
re: givemecarbs
Mustard in square-shouldered squirt bottles. The last quarter or so gets hung up around the shoulders and won't squirt , and it's really hard to scrape the shoulders with a spoon. I once resorted to cutting up the bottle with a utility knife. Now I just won't buy them. But I actually like screw caps on wine, they're better than those fake plastic corks that won't go back into the bottle.
Iceberg lettuce! That damned cello/plastic bag that is twisted and twisted into a long queue, then taped with a length of cellophane tape that sometimes wraps all the way around the damned bag! Who is the idiot who came up with that packaging? And may he find himself wrapped in tape from head to foot and pushed over!
re: Caroline1
re: Catskillgirl
re: maplesugar
I get the sample prevention strategy, but as a person who grocery shops for 1 it really irritates me to have to choose between buying more grapes than I can consume and buying no grapes at all. So stores that strong arm me into buying larger quantities of produce (with more packaging than necessary) don't get my business, at least not in the produce department.
Bags of chips, pasta, etc that are glued in such a way that when one finally gets them to open send the contents flying around the room.
re: lgss
Uggghhh...me, too! I won't let my husband attempt to open those. I'll have one of those packages, and my husband will see me struggling while i try to pull it open in a controlled manner. "Here, let me open that!" Ummm...no, b/c when you jerk the thing open, there's nothing left in there for me to eat.
re: lgss
Exact description of me opening a box of cereal. The box itself opens without a problem but the bag inside is impossible. Flakes flying all around.
Then comes the milk in the plastic jug. The cap is so small I can't hold onto it and it falls to the floor. Just what I need, another thing to wash. I put a sealed milk jug in the back of the fridge for use later. I opened the fridge about 30 minutes later only to find milk all over the shelf. One more complaint, because the jug doesn't have a spout it is very difficult to control when it is full.
can't stand opening the 20lb bags of dried dog food. either they have a string which you are supposed to pull but it always breaks and I have to resort to scissors, or they have a ziplock which of course I end up cutting in the wrong place.
Whatever the system I cannot manage to open a bag without spilling a whole load of doggie food and of course I cannot now close the bag for the 2 weeks it takes to use up.
the big bags of sugar (5lbs or 2 kilos). Soon as you start to unfold the top, the paper starts to tear and I end up with sugar over the counter.
re: smartie
ohh... I hate opening a new bag of sugar. I don't have a problem ripping the bag, but there's always some sugar stuck in the folded top so it spills out while I'm peeling it open. Then there's the sugar that gets caught between the two layers of paper and spills out all over the counter while I'm pouring the sugar into it's storage container.
My pet peeve is "cute little packaging". Generally they are supposed to be an individual serving, but in some infant portion. They are not intended to feed 10 year old Jr, unless you purchased a 48 count pack from Sams Club.
Along that same line is those microwave catapult cups. (pastas and stews are the most common) The victim nukes the food cup as directed, suddenly hears a mild pop. When the victim opens the door, they discover the food cup is now upside-down, with their food splattered all over the inside.
Not exactly food packaging but packaging for food - Glad Cling wrap.... I practically tore the box in half tonight trying to cut some until I discovered that the cutting strip is attached to the flap part of the box that opens; one has to tear it BACK rather than away in order to cut.
re: Jimmy Buffet
re: Jimmy Buffet
I'm with you on that one! Speaking of wrap packaging--what about Aluminum Foil? It seems that every roll of foil I purchase has one end that is all crinkled and wrinkled up and it separates from the rest of the foil and it takes me forever to undo the little end....then I am constantly cutting myself on the cutting strip of both the foil and gladwrap.
re: jarona
""then I am constantly cutting myself on the cutting strip of both the foil and gladwrap.""
I know some Commercial foil/wraps is starting to use a safety cutter very similar to a miniature version of an envelope opener. (plastic guarded razor blade style) I think they will soon be on Consumer foils/wraps.
In the meantime I would tape up those dangerous cutting strips, keeping one of those envelope cutters handy or come up with something that you would be comfortable with. My Aunt almost bleed to death when my tall uncle mistakenly put the foil on the wrong shelf. The attached cutting strip cut her mid-wrist area and along her neck line when the box slipped off the shelf in her attempts to grab it. Now her home is free from those unsafe boxes when a local friend of hers made her a safer one.
k, have another one as of last night with the Taste of Thai Green Curry paste packet.....flat plastic bag thing inside the outer packaging. I use about a tablespoon and save the rest inside a ziploc baggie, bag and all. Thankfully paste is thick enough to stay in it's place, with other similar packaing that is more liquid, it's a pain. Have to find a jar or container anyway to keep it.
I'll take the jar to begin with next time.

The photographs, taken by Glen Lunchford and Mark Abrahams, elicit sexuality and desire indeed. Do you think the photographs are corny or classy?
Implications - Personally, I'm a sucker for fashion shoots that combine disparate looking major supermodels and combines them with editorials that unabashedly trumpet their sex appeal. To me, that's the definition of an 'edgy' photo shoot. It makes the V Magazine Spring/Summer Sexy Body issue a must grab for both men and women.

Upper St. Clair High School graduate Sean Casey now is a member of the Cincinnati Reds Hall of Fame.
During a sold-out induction gala Sunday in Cincinnati, Casey, Dan Driessen and the late John Reilly joined such luminaries as Johnny Bench, Joe Morgan and Pete Rose among Reds immortals.
Casey played eight seasons (1998-2005) for the Reds during his 12-year career. He was named to the National League All-Star team three times, including selections in his two best years: In 1999, he compiled a .332 batting average with 25 home runs and 99 runs batted in; his numbers for 2004 were .324-24-99.
His lifetime batting average is .302.
Casey played part of the 2006 season in Pittsburgh, but Pirates fans might remember him best as the first player to hit a home run at PNC Park when it opened in 2001.
Driessen, who hails from the favorite Pittsburgh-area vacation spot of Hilton Head Island, S.C., hit .267 during 15 years in the majors. With the Reds in 1980, he led the National League by drawing 93 walks and being hit with six pitches.
Reilly, known as "Long John," played his entire career (1880, 1883-91) in Cincinnati. Most of that was when the team was in the American Association, which was a major league in the 19th century. Reilly twice led the AA in home runs and slugging percentage.
Founded in 1958, the Cincinnati Reds Hall of Fame and Museum is the largest team hall of fame in baseball, according to the hall's website.

Robber tricks his way into pensioner's home
4:39pm Friday 16th May 2014 in News
A man tricked his way into a pensioner's home by claiming he needed help supporting his baby before robbing her of hundreds of pounds.
The 82-year-old victim answered the door of her flat in Chesham Street, Brighton, at about 9pm on Sunday to a man who asked her for £10 to help support his baby.
The homeowner told the man to wait at the door and she went into her flat and closed the door but the man barged his way, grabbed a wallet containing hundreds of pounds from the victim and knocked her to the ground.
The victim suffered a minor cut to her arm but was very shaken and was taken to hospital to be examined.
Detective Constable Scott Moore said: "It looks like the man deliberately targeted the victim as she seems to have been the only person whose door he knocked on.
"She is very upset at what has happened.
"We need to speak to anyone who heard the victim scream during the incident and may have seen the burglar leaving."
Anyone with information should call 101 quoting serial 1405 of 16/5, email firstname.lastname@example.com.

This is a very difficult situation, as any dog lover knows. If you were asking whether the owner has to reimburse you for the money you spent, there's more facts that we would first have to discuss. Unfortunately, the owner does not lose ownership because you came to his dog's rescue.

You are not asking a legal question. No lawyer can give an opinion on the price of a dog. If you have a legal question, please ask it.
Q: I was sold false documents about a dog I bought from a pet shop, and they are refusing to refund. Can I sue
1 Answer | Asked in Animal / Dog Law for New York on Jun 17, 2014
Answered on Jun 17, 2014
Charles Snyderman's answer
I'm not sure what you mean when you say you were sold false documents. Usually, what's sold is the dog, and the buyer receives documents with the purchase. If you bought this animal based on misrepresentations by the pet store, you do have rights. However, you would have to prove that the misrepresentations were made. Did you look at the documents before you paid for the dog?

William E. Scully Jr.'s answer
Sounds like you've got a law suit on your hands. Sounds like the local municipality or your subdivision Property Owners Association is suing you. Just like any other dispute, there are two sides (at least) to every law suit. You will have your opportunity to give your side of the case at an appropriate time. In order to give yourself the best chance of presenting your case, you need a lawyer. Hire one pretty quickly. You only have a little time within which to answer this complaint, if...

Yes, your neighbors have the right to sue. That does not mean they will win. They will have to prove it was your dogs who did the damage. If they can't prove it, they will lose.

Please provide more information.
1. Where did this incident occur? For example, on your property, the property where the child lives, in a public park, etc.
2. You say the dog is not fine. What's wrong with the dog, and how did your dog get harmed?

1 Answer | Asked in Animal / Dog Law for Massachusetts on May 19, 2014
Answered on May 19, 2014
Charles Snyderman's answer
In Rhode Island, if a dog's certification of registration is in the name of one person, there's a presumption that that person is the owner. That presumption can, in some cases, be overcome by other evidence. For example, there might be evidence of a gift. Other factors are ownership of the mother, possession, and control. I cannot imagine the attorney general making the ultimate decision. That is why there are courts.

William E. Scully Jr.'s answer
In Alabama "every dog gets one bite." But, if the crazy lady next door knows that her dog bites or has 'dangerous propensities' she might be liable for injuries caused by the dog. Obviously she needs to keep the dog on her own property. But she also needs to warn potential trespassers that the dog bites like by putting up a sign or something. Also, Alabama has a special law to protect the mailman or the meter reader or, for that matter, anybody she invites onto the property from being...

DALLAS — Kobe Bryant was just a little better than Dirk Nowitzki in a spirited game befitting Western Conference leaders — not teams battling for ninth place.
Bryant had 38 points to win a scoring duel with Nowitzki, and Steve Nash helped beat his former team by getting 20 points for the first time with the Los Angeles Lakers in a 103-99 victory against the Dallas Mavericks on Sunday.
Nowitzki finished with a season-high 30 in a game that had a playoff feel from the start, even though both teams still have plenty of ground to make up to even qualify for the postseason.
"It's fun," said Bryant, who also had 12 rebounds and seven assists. "He's one of my all-time favorites. He's a throwback type of player. He doesn't mind the physicality. He made some incredible plays down the stretch."
Bryant, who went past the 31,000-point mark, was playing in Mark Cuban's building two days after the outspoken Dallas owner suggested in a radio interview that the Lakers might have to consider dumping the five-time NBA champion through the amnesty clause.
"Amnesty THAT," Bryant tweeted after the game.
"I'm sure if he wants to amnesty Dirk, that's something we'll be willing to entertain," Bryant told reporters.
Sunday's highlights
• LeBron James scored 28 points, Dwyane Wade scored 11 of his 24 in the final five minutes, and Miami extended the NBA's longest current winning streak to 11 games, beating visiting Cleveland 109-105
• Russell Westbrook scored 23 points, Kevin Durant had 19 points and 16 rebounds, and host Oklahoma City held Chicago to the worst shooting performance in the NBA this season, 29.1 percent.
• Carmelo Anthony scored 29 points, Amare Stoudemire had a season-high 22 and New York snapped its four-game losing streak with a 99-93 win over visiting Philadelphia.
• Wesley Matthews had 24 points, including a clutch three-pointer with less than a minute to go, and Portland snapped a seven-game losing streak with a 92-86 win over visiting Boston.
• Minnesota's Kevin Love said his surgically repaired right hand is better and he hopes to play 15 to 20 games this season. The Timberwolves' star said he will meet with a doctor in the first 10 days of March. He has yet to begin basketball-related activities but says his hand feels much better than when he broke it the first time during preseason.

You may have stopped by for coffee or a meal, or simply passed by on your way elsewhere.
But you probably didn't know the counter where you sipped coffee or the table where you sat was part of the setting for a movie scene.
The popular breakfast and lunch nook Raff's Cafe has been featured in coffee shop scenes in two recent independent films.
Mary Rafferty, owner of Raff's Lunch & Breakfast Cafe at 620 Primrose St., was thrilled when a local movie director asked to use her restaurant in his films.
John Depew of Haverhill was a customer when Rafferty opened the shop four years ago.
"He was having breakfast and told me he'd filmed here with the previous owner and that he would like to film here again," she said.
Rafferty liked the idea and they arranged for filming after business hours.
"They did everything to set up for the scenes, including moving tables, but they put everything back in its place before they left," she said.
Depew said Raff's was perfect for filming scenes at the counter and at a table.
"It's large enough and can pass for a diner," he said. And aestheically it looks great."
Depew, 65, a filmmaker, actor and writer, has made three independent films in the last several years with his wife, Judy Coleman, who produces their movies under their company, Wild Beagle Productions.
"Judy was awesome to work with," Rafferty said.
Shooting took place in various locations in the Haverhill and Lawrence areas, including at Raff's cafe.
"She's a wonderful gal and very accommodating," Depew said about Rafferty.
Depew's first film, titled "27 Down,'' is a police drama filmed two years ago in Haverhill and Lawrence at locations including Raff's, the Lawrence Police Station and a Shell gas station on Route 125 in North Andover.

10. 10. 11. - 13:00
Motorcycle rides are available on Romania's highest mountain road, Transalpina, which connects historical regions Transylvania and Oltenia.
Transalpina Road, the highest mountain road in Romania (2,145m above sea level), crossing Paring Mountains, is one of the most spectacular roads of the Carpathian Mountains, offering a 100 kilometres ride. It was built in 1938 by King Carol II, with strategic mission, and then rebuilt by German troops during World War Two.
The road was reconstructed and paved completely and it is open to motorists and drivers with enthusiasm for mountain scenery.
Less famous than Transfagarasan Road, Transalpina is considered to be the best paved motorcycle road by local motorcyclists, offering the possibility of some superb motorcycle riding, according to local Adventure Motorcycle Tours team.
Adventure Motorcycle Tours offers rides for lone riders as well as for groups of riders.
The team welcomes riders, who can fly to Cluj-Napoca or Targu Mures, from where they can be collected and transferred by car to the garage, collect a rented motorcycle, complete with a full tank of fuel.
Adventure Motorcycle Tours Transylvania Live specialises in motorcycle tours in Transylvania (Romania) and in Eastern Europe.

Last week, I wrote an article about using the new Azure Preview Portal and new IaaS Resource Group Gallery templates to provision an entire cloud-based server farm in as little as eight mouse-clicks – complete with storage, virtual networking and multiple VM tiers.
Since publishing that article, I've been asked by a number of people how the same Resource Group model could be used to automate the provisioning of server farms using PowerShell. Beginning in version 0.8.0 of the Azure PowerShell modules, the Azure PowerShell installation actually installs 3 modules:
Azure Resource Manager can greatly simplify the management of multi-VM applications by allowing the related resources to be provisioned and managed as a Resource Group, rather than as a discrete set of individual resources. In this article, we'll step through the process for leveraging the AzureResourceManager module to script the process for quickly building a new server farm in the cloud.

Excellent 10.0
This small hotel was run by a friendly family who bent over backwards to be helpful, picking us up from the bus station in Fira and giving directions and information about best places/beaches to visit. Breakfast was attractively presented and although simple there was variety and it was plentiful. The hotel setting was attractive and rooms were comfortable, had privacy and were quiet. Each room had it's own patio area with table and chairs or there were loungers by the small pool.
Good 8.0
The owner of the hotel arranged to pick us up from the bus station even though it was late indeed and arrived promptly and even took us back when we checked out.

I ride a 56cm in a typical 700c road frame, I have an 87.5 cm inseam and ride with a saddle ht of 77 cm center of crankset to top of saddle. On my current road bike I have a reach from nose of saddle to bars of 55 cm (66 cm horizontal from center of seat post to center of bars) and about 9 cm of bar drop. For touring I'd probably want more like 4 cm of drop. Looking at Bike CAD, it appears that I might be able to get all these dimensions on a 54cm LHT.
Has anyone with my approximate dimensions ever built up a 54cm for touring? If so, how did it work?

Missouri Rep. Todd Akin's hometown paper has endorsed his opponent, Claire McCaskill, in their race for U.S. Senate.
The St. Charles County Suburban Journal, which covers a large portion of Mr. Akin's House district, wrote in an editorial that "conservatives could do worse" than Mrs. McCaskill.
"The right choice for Missouri, and oddly for the Republican Party as a whole, is Claire McCaskill," the paper wrote.
The endorsement is a sting to Mr. Akin, who easily won St. Charles County by a 37-point margin in his last congressional race in 2010.
Calling the race a "conundrum" for conservatives in Missouri — a state that has been steadily inching to the right — the paper pointed to a relatively moderate voting record left behind by Mrs. McCaskill, who has sided with Republicans on some environmental issues, worked on bipartisan legislation to ban earmarking and opposed President Obama's blocking of the Keystone pipeline.
Conversely, Mr. Akin doesn't speak for most voters on the right, the editors wrote. After claiming in August that victims of "legitimate rape" are unlikely to become pregnant, he recently accused Mrs. McCaskill of not acting "ladylike" in a recent debate.
'At a time when Akin is fighting to get back into the good graces of women voters, what does it say about his common sense that he would make a gender generalization about how McCaskill should portray herself in the political arena?" the paper wrote.
