1680 Tasting Notes
This is one of the teas that the bookstore I work at stocks without fail, so I decided to do some 'research' so I could make good recommendations to the customers (that's my story and I'm sticking to it). ;)
I've always found that Harney & Sons manages to straddle the line between putting out a high quality product but at the same time still being affordable and accessible even for those not well-versed in tea knowledge. This tea is good example – it's refined with the sweet caramel and creamy vanilla flavours but at the same time the hint of tangy bergamot is familiar (just about everyone has tried earl grey at some point in their lives). I could see this tea becoming a staple in my cupboard.
It's been a while since I drank this tea so I decided to give it another go with slightly different steeping parameters. My opinion of the tea remains pretty much unchanged however, though drinking it now it comes across as being even more chai-like with not much of any brandy (or indeed any alcohol) flavours. This tea may go on the 'to swap' pile – I know there's a Traveling Teabox coming my way in the near future.
I'm really not sure what to think of this tea to be honest – it's not outright unpleasant, but I don't precisely love it either. The bergamot and peach flavours merge together in way that's a bit like mango – but not quite – though mango is the closest analogy to what I'm actually tasting that I can think of. It's distinctly tangy, especially when the tea is hot and gradually more sweetness creeps in as the temperature of liquid falls. It's an interesting blend and I can honestly say I haven't really tried a tea like this before. I may have to play around with it a bit before I can give a verdict.
Another tea that smells good enough to eat – like fruit and caramel. The flavour is distinctly cakey and sweet – like caramelized brown sugar. There's also a slight fruity undertone although it subtle and I can't really pick out any fruit in particular. This tea is delicious – like dessert in a cup. I hope Davids Tea brings this blend back next winter because I'd say it's my favourite out of all the teas that were in the Winter Sampler.
I reduced the steeping time which helped a little bit but this tea still has a rather unpleasantly bitter, almost chemical-like tang to it. I think a sweetened chocolate flavour would have worked better than raw cocoa. I'm adding this tea to my swap/give away pile.
This tea got hosed pretty thoroughly by the reviewers, but I wanted to at least give it the benefit of the doubt and try it anyway.
On paper it sounds like it should work – chocolate oolong sounds like a delectable combination. The smell is fantastic – it's like those boozy chocolate truffles I remember selling back when I worked at Purdy's Chocolates. I see what people mean about the licorice flavour though – it's like they tried to use it to sweetened the tea and added a bit too much as it sort of muscles in on the chocolate flavours. Now I don't mind licorice root, but it doesn't really mesh with the chocolate and I'm pretty sure this wasn't what Davids Tea was going for.
This is another tea I've been saving up knowing that once my tin is gone there's no more where it came from. :(
The smell is incredible – it made me think of freshly-baked shortbread cookies and it made my stomach growl it was so good. The flavour is just as wonderful with a distinctly cookie-ish taste with just a hint of sugary sweetness and almond flavour is that of lightly toasted almonds rather than fresh (or almond extract).
I think I might be in love…which is problematic. Has anyone managed to find an alternate supplier?
I'd check to see if it's the same ingredient list as TeaGschwendner; they supply many teas to North American companies, and have one by the same name. I'm going to hazard it is; same ingredients, and the pictures look the same. http://steepster.com/teas/simpson-and-vail/21388-almond-sugar-cookie
I liked the Almond cookie by Simpson and Vail but I've never had this tea before, so your results may vary :)
I've never really tried any teas from Indonesia and I've never really had any oolongs that weren't from either China or Taiwan. As I'm a big fan of trying new things, this tea intrigued me too much to pass it up.
The dry tea has a sweet, fruit-like odor but as the leaves steeped the tea takes on more of a floral character. The flavour leans towards floral but with an odd green bitterness tacked on at the end. It might be that I oversteeped it so I'll try for a reduced steeping time on the next round.
There's not really much to this tea I'm afraid – just a sort of vague fruity flavour. Other than that it just tastes like your standard Ceylon black tea. As much as I like supporting small companies I haven't been thrilled with any of the teas this company blends so far.

Clinique Even Better Makeup SPF15 Reviews
Nice :)It's quite all right foundation, has SPF 15 which is great and claims to visibly brighten and restore even tone. My complaint would be that it is a bit drying (though it might be just me because I see a lot of other people call it moisturizing). Moderate natural coverage so it's not quite right if you want to cover some major skin flaws. I also somewhat missed with a shade - linen is a little bit too yellow for me - but this line has really great selection of shades, — 3 years, 2 months agodatura | 15 reviews
Loving it!I tried out this foundation at the Macy's counter because the foundation I was using completely sucked. For $25, it was a great deal. It work insanely well and covered everything. My only complaint is that the shades were a little hard to match. I was in between a 2 and a 3. The 2 was just a little too light, and the 3 was just a little too dark. But other than that, I have no other complaints. — 3 years, 2 months agoriley_taylor | 15 reviews

Pretty Good BargainI like this to wear during the day. It covers imperfections nicely, but I wouldn't say that they disappear. Imperfections are just less noticeable, but I get that same effect with MAC foundation too. This blends easily and powder sits nicely on top without caking. For the price this is a good buy. I wish I could give this 8 and a half stars. As far as this foundation fading age, sun, or acne spots overtime? I'll have to report back later. — 3 years, 2 months agomissoconee | 64 reviews

surprizedI ripperd out a sample of this from a magazine and I was very shocked at how great it looked.

How to give citrus fruits their 'colour'?
Hi everyone,
Just wondering what conditions it is that makes lemons 'yellow' and oranges etc 'orange'?
I am in the south of the UK and have a healthy Lemon, Tahiti Lime and Mandarin Orange. They flowered well last summer and fruited well .... and have had a reasonable winter in a conservatory. The Mandarin especially is full of fruit but, despite being quite large, remain almost completely green .... as do the lemons. This is always something I ahve struggled with. What can I do to make sure the fruit actually ripens properly?
Color is not an indication of ripeness, Ouraka. Divergences in day/evening temperatures is what is responsible for causing citrus skin to develop their respective color for the most part. That as well as crop load and age of the tree. The night time temps need to drop below 55 degrees F for at least several days to allow citrus to color up properly. The more cool weather that the fruit is exposed to, the quicker it will turn color. However, that does NOT mean the fruit isn't ripe. In the tropics, citrus is routinely eaten with green skins :-) And, younger trees will not green up fruits as well as more mature trees, especially those trees carrying a large load.
Patty S.
Thanks Patty,
So at this stage of the year, what is better for the plants? Popping them outside so they stay fairly cool, especially at night, even though there are many, many flower buds .... or giving them a head start in Spring by keeping them in the conservatory with the higher day/night temps that they will get in there, but perhaps sacrificing the colour of the fruit?
I always suggest putting your citrus out as soon as all danger of significant frost is over in your area. Especially if you've got a nice, sunny day going. They benefit from the sunshine, the gentle rains, and the divergent temps :-) Leave them outside as long as you possibly can into the Fall, then bring them into the greenhouse/conservatory when you must :-)
Patty S.
Ourarka, a premium for rain in the UK?? Where would that be? I was under the assumption the UK has a fair amount of precipitation. Premium of sunshine I know, but I thought the UK received a good amount of rainfall.
Patty S.
In fact, if you compare the rainfall of England (not including Scotland & Wales) with the rainfall in USA, you find that both countries have about 30% by area with more than 30" rain. In USA the dry areas are much drier, and the wet areas much wetter. And the rain in England tends to be gentler but longer lasting.
However, currently, to quote from UK government sources:
"Cumulative rainfall over the five month period ending January 2012 was provisionally the driest in our Anglian Region since records began in 1910. Rainfall over the 16 months ending January 2012 was the driest on record in our Midlands Region and the third driest in our Anglian Region since 1995-97. Over the same period, rainfall in our South West and South East Regions was provisionally the fourth and fifth lowest since records began and the driest on record since 1974-76 and 2004-6 respectively. England and Wales received the lowest rainfall since 1995-97 over the same period and the ninth lowest since records began."
Regarding citrus in the UK, unless you are permanently maintaining tropical temperatures (over 80F), the fruits will eventually turn colour. Be patient - from one year's spring flowering in the UK, it can well be the next summer that fruits mature. Sadly, that doesn't mean they will be as sweet as commercially grown citrus. Just not enough summer sun for that.
It is not the amount of rain that makes Seattle and London so gloomy in the winter. It is the persistence of the rain, fog,and low grey clouds like every day for months and very short days.
I somehow managed to survive the Seattle weather with only winter seasonal affective disorder for 14 years from the gloomy winter weather before moving to a warmy and not so rainy climate(SE Texas.) Haven't lived in London so just going on what I've heard about it's weather being close to Seattle's. Chime right in citrange if I've got it wrong.
Here is a link that might be useful: mrtexas
Yes, I know :-) I grew up for many years as a kid in Vancouver, BC. My family is very accustomed to "permacloud", being from Canada by way of Scotland. Vancouver, BC makes Seattle look like San Diego.

Spring Pinterest Challenge: Planting & Hanging Window Boxes
Word up my fellow Pinterest playas. Hope you got down with some baking, crafting, painting, organizing, sewing, building, or knitting fun because it's time to share this season's (completely unofficial) Pinterest Challenge (not sponsored by Pinterest or anyone else, just dreamed up by Katie to make us stop pinning and start doing). The only rule is to pin something you've wanted to get done (big or small) and do it. You know, instead of sitting on your duff pinning other things… which I'll admit happens a whole lot in my world.
Our mission this season? Window boxes! I actually pinned two window-box related pics, this picture just for the eye candy of it (at $90+ bucks per box they're purely for inspiration) and this tutorial for making them (which we planned to do if we couldn't find ready-made ones in our price range). We thought they'd add some nice dimension and soft greenery to our long boxy ranch, and they'd been on our list for a while. They're definitely not necessary for resale or anything, but we just couldn't part with this house without seeing how cute they'd look. How's that for being a weirdo? Anyway, here are the three windows that we thought could use some quaint greenery…
And here are the materials (the window boxes, liners and brackets) that we grabbed last week at Home Depot (we priced out building vs. buying and realized it was pretty close).
We loved that the planters were clean-lined and mid-century-ish (it was like they were made for a ranch). As for how to hang them, here's what worked for our brick facade:
Step Numero Uno: Use a hammer drill to drill pilot holes for the screws for each bracket (after carefully marking where you want them to go by holding up the window box to make sure it's centered).
Step Dos: Hang the brackets according to the package instructions (you're essentially just drilling them into the pilot holes you make while adding that weird little metal thing up top (we'll get into what that's used for in a second). Oh but we made two mistakes for you, so now that we know what not to do, we wanted to spread the word:
- Don't use the cheap/short/non-masonry screws that come with the kit! We had 2″ masonry tapcon screws that we had leftover from our fireplace project that worked really well.
- Don't use a regular drill to get the screws in, be sure to use a hammer drill! It really got them in tighter and the ones we screwed with the regular drill were lose and needed to be redone.
Step Tres: Once we got our method down, it was easy to get them in nice and tightly. And then the weird metal thing on the top of the bracket could be bent over the window box once it was placed onto the bracket, thereby locking it into place. The metal thing was so soft you could just bend it with your hand. Although I should have told you guys that it was crazy hard and the only reason I could do it with my bare hand is because The Hulk is my second cousin.
Step Four: Drop the plastic liner into the planter box while making a weird face (check). Oh and be sure to pop out the two drainage holes in the plastic liner beforehand (I used a house key to smash them out since they were slightly perforated but I couldn't get them with my finger). The cool thing about the drainage holes in the plastic liner is that they line up with the pre-drilled drainage holes in the planter box, so that was nice planning on Home Depot's part.
You might wonder what John and Clara were doing while I was on window box duty…
Yup, they were spreading mulch. And it was adorable. And we all had about 100 inch worms on us by the time we were done outside.
But back to the window boxes. I used an old "cheaper and already grown in" trick, which is to buy two hanging baskets from a local nursery (Great Big Greenhouse, here in Richmond, where I actually had a store credit so they didn't cost me anything). The reason hanging baskets are so smart for window boxes is because they already spill down and appear to "drip" instead of the typical pots and flats that they sell for gardening. Hello, instant gratification!
I just dumped them out and very very carefully divided them as gently as I could…
… and bam: I had a few spilling-over flowers for each window box, without having to play the waiting game while they grew over the edge.
Aren't they cute? I have no idea what kind of flowers these are. I think the white and pink ones are petunias though. Maybe these purple guys are some other blend of mini ones?
I think the window boxes are sweet little additions. Not giant and commanding, just casual and simple. I actually love that they're the color of the brick so the flowers are the star and they don't look too busy. And as they continue to fill in and spill out more I think they'll look even better.
So there you go, three window boxes, some tips for what not to do while hanging them, and one way to find already-droopy flowers to fill them.
And just look at that fresh come-hither mulch. Me-ow.
Don't forget to check in on Katie, Emily, and Renee to see what awesome projects they've whipped up (they'll all be sharing theirs sometime today as well)!
And we'd love to hear what you guys did for this season's challenge. If you've already blogged about it, just:
- click on the blue "Add Your Link" button with the odd cartoon head at the bottom of this post (you might have to do some scrolling, depending how many projects are added)
- add a link to your specific blog post about your project in the url field (not your home page)
- where it says "name" write a descriptive name for your project (ex: "Homemade Leaf Wreath") as opposed to your actual name
- we'd also love if you could quickly link back over to our project posts within your own (here's Katie's, Emily's and Renee's) – it's also nice to link to your inspiration project on Pinterest as well as to directly link to the original project/site, just so they get some love too.
And if you'd rather just link over to your project in the comment section, feel free to do that – or even add a link to a free photo sharing site like Flickr with your pics if you don't have a blog (remember to set the gallery to public so we can all see it). I'm borderline too excited to see what you guys have been up to…

That hanging basket trick is BRILLIANT! I've been wanting to buy a planter to put outside my front door but I held back because I didn't know what on earth I would put INSIDE of it. Hanging basket contents OF COURSE! Thank you Sherry!
I normally love window boxes, but I'm finding yours too small, low, and sparse to have much effect… I can hardly notice them in the distance shots. They don't look balanced with the size of the windows. I believe window boxes should be slightly wider than the window in order to look balanced, but with the heavy black shutters beside your windows, they look even more unbalanced. Might I suggest doing something to beef them up? I guess you can't make them wider now, but I'd suggest painting them black and adding a LOT more foliage to them.
Check out the difference between yours and the first house here: http://www.deborahsilver.com/blog/the-window-box-a-hybrid-vehicle/
Looks great!! What is the little bright green plant to the left of your carport (when you are facing it head on) in your landscaping? We need something like that in our landscaping and I like the color. :)
How did you decide upon the scale of the boxes compared to the windows and blinds?
Love it! Thanks for hosting, AND making me "Get on that already!"
I love how they turned out and I like that you bought the boxes since that worked best. I was a little worried that my store bought organizer turned into a bookshelf wouldn't fit within in the rules of the Pinterest Project since I wasn't copying something exactly from Pinterest but I had pinned a bookshelf before and it was something I'd been wanting to do for our girls room. Anyway, glad it is still free spirit-y and fun!
Is it bad that the thing I love most about this post is "step número uno"? Seriously, I'm going to have to go back to see if you've done that before. ;)
Thanks for all you do. I've followed you for a long time, and because of you "can do" spirit my daughter and us decided to attempt a big furniture rebuild. I linked up our PB Stratton Bed Knockoff. I hope you can come check it out at bohemianjunktion.com. You both inspire us to tackle projects we were hesitant about doing before. Thanks!
Oh yea, I'm so going to try that hanging basket trick!
Hey, I like that hanging basket idea. Do you think you'll add some window boxes to the new house?
We purchases angled (tilted??) window boxes two years ago but the masonry bit still would not drill through the brick so we freaked out and left it alone. Do you think our mistake was not using the hammer drill? and we did so many searches on google trying to find out whether it was better to drill through the brick or the mortar and got so many conflicting articles. After reading this I am tempted to give it a go again!!
Come-hither mulch, lol! You crack me up. Love the window boxes.
Er – I love the idea and the flowers, but in my mind I imagined much bigger boxes? Like, ones that would underline the whole window from shutter-to-shutter? I think I've only ever raised an eyebrow at two projects you've ever done, but the scale seems off on these. Is there a correct decorator's formula for how to scale these?
I like your boxes and admire the work you've done to put them up, but it seems to me the planters would look even better if they were white. That way they'd stand out more and go well with the trim (like the porch columns and such)
Do you think these work on the sides of decks? Or do you think there are better options? Thanks!
The window boxes are cute! I love that the flowers bring some softness to the brick facade, a feature my little ranch shares with yours :-)
I'm curious what your thoughts are about drilling into the brick knowing that you are selling the house soon… were you apprehensive at all? Is it an easy fix to patch the holes if the future owners want to remove the brackets? I think I would be too scared to drill through brick/tile like you guys have!
P.S. I love the cargola more and more every time I see a new pic!
I just finished master gardener classes and am considering a gardening blog so this post really interested me. If I may make a few suggestions for others considering window boxes – use the largest size planter that fits your window so that the plants have as much soil as possible so they don't dry out as quickly. Succulents are beautiful and would be a great choice. A good watering of the basket before dividing will make teasing the roots apart easier & reduce transplant shock. Finally, be sure the planters drain well so roots don't rot. Love window boxes! for charm!
I kind of looked to see if anyone else had answered, but didn't immediately see any. They're all petunias. Wave petunias, actually. The purple are mini wave. The difference between wave and "regular" petunias is that "spilling" effect. You can also get waves in the flats – not in the baskets – for way cheaper than most baskets. Look for the Proven Winner brand – they're always fantastic (my mom owns a flower shop/nursery, and this is where my moderate knowledge comes from! Ha.).
Looks really cute – yet another relatively easy update that will make your house show better. So smart!
P.S. – I love your updated comment disclaimer. Do people really submit things like that (the fart thing)? LOL
I too love window boxes and may tackle this project. I don't have a hammer drill though. Any guidance on how much voltage, etc. I would need for some basic projects around the house?
Although the window boxes are a close second, the picture of John and Clara crouched down spreading mulch is too adorable! The apple and the tree.
What's a hammer drill? Does it have a different action than normal drills? Yours looks like it's a corded one – would you recommend it?
I'm not sure if anyone has mentioned this in the comments above, but you're right, the white and pink flowers are petunias and the little purple ones are called "Superbells". They are definitely super! They don't require pruning or pinching back, they are drought and heat resistant and bloom like crazy all season! Nice choice of plants, I like the hanging basket trick and your flower boxes look awesome! I've always wanted some… maybe this will be my inspiration for the next pinterest challenge! :)
Those window boxes look so cute!
I actually had already done a project from pinterest and happened to have the post going up yesterday so this one was pretty easy for me! Does that count or is it cheating :)
Looks fab-u-lous $herdog! Love it! And I totally agree- I'm diggin the wood tone look, blends so well with the brick. :)
I read here every day and really love all that you do and learning about how you do it. But I was an English major and I can't keep silent any longer about something that makes me wince on practically each and every one of your posts.
You use the word "actually" way, way, way too much. I know you're trying to sound conversational, but it adds nothing. Try deleting it from your next sentence and watch how the meaning remains the same.
I am painfully aware of how much everyone hates the grammar police and I'm truly sorry. But this one quirk in your writing bothers me so much and has for years! I (actually!)couldn't stand it anymore without saying something (said with much respect/blog love because I only want to see you improve).
Also, Clara is utterly charming! She is the star of YHL.
Those verbal (that can translate to written) ticks are so hard to shake sometimes. Once I was leading a meeting for a volunteer organization I was co-chair of, and was using "you know" way too much as I was talking. I could hear myself doing it, and I could see my audience getting more and more annoyed/bemused. To my horror the more aware of the tick I became, the more I said it until "you know" was at the start of and/or embedded in every sentence that came out of my mouth! I was like my brain went rogue and I couldn't stop saying it even though by that point much of my audience was openly laughing at me! Thankfully I had a sense of humor about it, and ended up laughing at myself. But man, it was weird how hard it was to get my brain unstuck on that verbal tick!
While I know this comment comes from a place of good intentions, it does make me a bit sad. Writing is very personal, and it doesn't need to be perfect to be enjoyable.
Professional writing is a big part of how I make my living, and while I agree that it is desirable to aim for improvement whenever possible, what bothers one person may not bother another. Folksy and conversational writing is quite enjoyable because it's casual and relatable (at least in my opinion).
Sherry, I've never noticed any extreme / irritating overuse of the word in question. While it may not be "necessary" in a sentence, it is often used conversationally to convey a certain meaning or intent, and it's okay if that translates into writing within reason. This is a blog after all, not a dissertation.
All this to say, I enjoy your writing. I think you and John are very good at what you do and I hope you'll keep doing it for a long time to come.

Here is another song I produced/ sang. I used fl studio (Fruity loops) to produce the instrumental and to record the vocals (everything was home made, I did not use a professional studio to record vocals). The whole process took me about 2 months, so I really worked hard on it. I was inspired by pop music with an edm/ rn'b/ hip hop twist. Artists such as Chris Brown, Usher, Britney Spears, Lady Gaga inspired me during the making process. Hope you enjoy, make sure to like it and follow me to let me know that you want me to make more songs! :)

Three Printers shown in Firefox About:Config

Posted October 2, 2012 at 2:56PM
I have an HP Photosmart 5510 printer but in About:Config it shows three. The first is an old HP Deskjet we used to have which died and went to the skip. We were without a printer for a few months and then bought the HP Photosmart 5510 which I like. The third in the list is shown as a HP Photosmart 5510 (Network), obviously the same. The first needs removing, how do I do that please? The second is the current printer and is correct. I can account for the third entry. I've tried to set up a Home Group Network between PC and Netbook, without success, and I'm waiting for someone in the family to visit and help. I suspect I may have changed the printer name for networking and perhaps gave it an IP No too. Is that necessary and do I need it shown in About:Config?

Jordan: Scaling up aid to Syrian refugees
Printer-friendly versionPDF version
18-05-2014 Operational Update
With the Syrian conflict showing no signs of abating, the refugee crisis drags on. About 400 Syrians cross into Jordan on most days, with the figure reaching the low thousands whenever fighting intensifies. The number of Syrian refugees in Jordan now stands at almost 600,000.

Almost 80 per cent of the Syrian refugees in Jordan live outside camps, within host communities, which puts pressure on local educational and health facilities, on the electricity and water networks and on other infrastructure.
Together with the Jordan National Red Crescent Society, the ICRC has been providing cash assistance for Syrian households in northern Jordan to help them meet their basic needs.
"For most refugees residing in host communities, the major challenge is to pay for basic living costs, including rent, food and medication," said Catherine Gendre, head of the ICRC delegation in Jordan. "Refugees who have been displaced for years have long since exhausted their savings and other assets."
The majority of Syrian refugees cross into Jordan through the north-eastern border. They arrive, with few if any belongings, in a hostile desert far from any urban services. Once they are in Jordan, they are initially accommodated at ICRC-sponsored temporary transit facilities where their basic needs are attended to.
Border Guards Forces then assist the newly arriving Syrians at six facilities along the border where shelter, water, generators and basic medical items are provided by the ICRC.
From January to April, the ICRC:

- provided about 157,000 three daily meals to 37,000 Syrian refugees who stayed from two to three days in three transit facilities, complemented with the distribution of 325,000 biscuits. In addition, 25,700 bottles of water and 74,000 packs of juice were provided in two facilities;

Sun archives: Barbaro
Barbaro made news as the runaway winner of the Kentucky Derby in 2006, but his fame grew exponentially after his injury in the Preakness.
Memorial for 2006 Kentucky Derby winner will be dedicated April 26
Behavior of beloved horse left jockey upset and concerned
Race to improve safety far from finish
The image of Barbaro blazing down the stretch at Churchill Downs, all four hooves off the ground as the powerful bay colt crushed the field in the 2006 Kentucky Derby, is seared in Roy Jackson's memory.
Barbaro's owners will return to Churchill Downs today to honor the 2006 Kentucky Derby winner on the first anniversary of his death.
Nearing the one-year anniversary of Barbaro's death, Gretchen Jackson -- who along with husband Roy owned the horse -- said yesterday they are close to announcing a decision about where the 2006 Kentucky Derby champion's ashes will be buried.
In an instant during the 2006 Preakness Stakes, Barbaro's future went from win-or-lose to life-or-death. And in the next tense hour, his owners listened to expert advice, weighed his chances and came down on the side of love

LAKE ELSINORE: City to respond to mining concerns
State agency dings Lake Elsinore for alleged oversight deficiencies
A state agency is turning up the heat on Lake Elsinore to properly perform its duties as the government overseer of mines within the city limits.
The state Mining and Geology Board recently sent the city a notice to correct deficiencies and alleging seven instances in which the city has lagged in its responsibility to ensure that surface mining for clay, rock and other materials is being done properly.
The largely undeveloped north side of the city is home to numerous mines covering more than a thousand acres that are still operating, have discontinued active operations or are permitted, but inactive.
Councilman Bob Magee said the city is working with state representatives and mine operators to review the allegations and correct whatever inadequacies there are. The city in early January rehired mining compliance consultant San Diego-based EnviroMine for $20,000 to investigate the state agency's complaints and ensure Lake Elsinore has a handle on the mining activities and documentation.
"I have every confidence that our staff and our consultant will work diligently with the mine operators to gain state-level compliance," Magee said, while declining to address specifics.
The notice states the city has failed to do the following in relation to one or more among nine sites:
-- properly administer permits and reclamation plans;
-- ensure timely inspections;
-- guarantee financial assurances for reclamation, the term for closing down mines;
-- enforce and seek forfeiture of financial assurances for three abandoned mines;
-- report violations such as operating outside permitted areas and having inadequate erosion controls;
-- and respond to a notice issued by the Office of Mine Reclamation asking for financial assurance cost estimates.
The city has until early February to prove to the state Mining and Geology Board that it is addressing the issues, some of which stem from confusion about documentation, officials said.
"I do believe there are some inaccuracies, but we'll be able to straighten that out with the state mining board," said City Engineer Ken Seumalo. "All of (the issues) need to be addressed, whether we say they're already completed or need to be completed."
If the city fails to comply, the state could take over the watchdog role, said EnviroMine President Warren Coalson.
He said that has occurred with several California cities and counties that apparently were overwhelmed by their responsibility to enforce the state's Surface Mining and Reclamation Act of 1975.
"(State officials are) telling the city, if you don't get your act together, we're going to come in and do this," Coalson said. "In defense of the city, SMARA is a very unique law. It's got its own set of rules and regulations. It's over 100 pages of regulations and it's very difficult for a city planner to understand all the nuances of the law. ... Sometimes it's difficult for the city when they've got all these other responsibilities already."
Coalson said the main issue of substance that needs to be corrected is the reclamation of a property east of Lake Street that had once been a mine and targeted for development, but has since been left vacant and unrestored.

Find out the forecast for high tides and low tides before setting out to fish, and other fishing-related data such as the lunar phase, tidal coefficient, sun and moon rising and setting times, hours of maximum fish activity, weather conditions in Eugene Island ...
We want you to enjoy to the max a well-planned fishing expedition! Good luck!
Today Friday, 27th of March of 2015, the sun will rise in Eugene Island at 7:00 am and sunset will be at 7:21 pm. The moon set at 1:54 am at 291º northwest. Eventually, the moon will rise again in the east (70º) at 12:54 pm.
In the high tide and low tide chart, we can see that the low tide was at 3:01 am and the high tide will be at 1:14 pm.
The lunar phase is a First Quarter Moon. Today we will have 12 hours and 21 minutes of sun. The solar transit will be at 1:11 pm and the length of time the moon will be visible will be 13 hours and 0 minutes.
The tidal coefficient today is 39, a low value, which means that the range (difference between high tide and low tide) will be lower than on other occasions and the currents will also be small. At noon the tidal coefficient drops to 38 to end the day with a tidal coefficient of 39. The tide heights today are 0.0 ft and 2.0 ft. We can compare these levels with the maximum high tide recorded in the tide tables for Eugene Island which is of 3.0 ft and a minimum height of -1.3 ft.
The solunar fishing calendar in Eugene Island tells us that today is a good day for fishing, the fish activity forecast is high. Please, read more about solunar tables. The best times of day for fishing are:
Tide timetable for Eugene Island. The times are generated in local time in Louisiana and the daylight saving time change is calculated automatically, so you don't need to add or subtract anything. You will also have the lunar phase, sunrise and sunset times, the tidal coefficient and the average fish activity forecast for each day according to the solunar tables:
[ 0 low activity ] , [ average activity ] , [ high activity ] , [ very high activity ]
NOTE: The times reflected in the tide table for Eugene Island are tide forecasts only valid as references for sport fishing. They shouldn't be used as a guide for navigation. The heights are expressed in feet referenced to Mean Lower Low Water (MLLW).
MLLW is the average of the lower low water height of each tidal day observed over the official time segment over which tide observations are taken and reduced to obtain mean value (Tidal Datum Epoch).

Happy Birthday! You would have been 14. I've been thinking about you a lot lately. Actually, you and the family. For a family that was so unique and ever-present for me, it's hard to process that notion of always being there and then put it together with the notion of never being there again. I'm starting to understand what that means though. Whenever there is something special to share with you or someone else in the family, something that I know you would enjoy, you aren't there.
I was just watching some videos of you and the family vacationing in Alaska. You were such an amazing family! I'm so glad I have those videos because I can re-experience you and remember what you were like.
I love you and miss you. We're all thinking about you on your birthday.

Hugh Jackman, NZ PM star in man with cancer's video gift for wife
- From: news.com.au
- September 02, 2010
- Sydneysider makes video for his wife
- Thanks her for support during chemo
- Video stars Hugh Jackman, NZ PM
HUGH Jackman has made a cameo in a video that a man undergoing chemotherapy made for his wife.
Sydneysider Kristian Anderson, 35, has been having chemotherapy since he was diagnosed with cancer in October 2009. He made the video for his wife of seven years, Rachel, as a birthday present and a thank you for her support.
Watch the video below:
"I'll never give up (so please don't give up on me)," Kristian says in his video, holding up the words written on large white cards as he stands in a room full of lightbulbs.
"Without you... Life just doesn't work. I need you like I need a cure for cancer."
The full video features cameos by New Zealand Prime Minister John Key – since Rachel is a Kiwi – and Hugh Jackman, who appeared in the video after Kristian asked Triple M's The Grill Team presenter Gus Worland for help.
"He loves you Rachel ... he loves you," Jackman says in the video, which also features the couple's two young sons Cody, 3, and Jakob, 1.
"(The boys) know Daddy sleeps a lot and Daddy goes to the doctor a lot and Daddy has a lot of pills to take, but they're too little to understand," Rachel told Triple M.
"Our three-year-old, in order to relate to Daddy - he's sick all the time – (says) 'I've got a sore head like my daddy, my tummy hurts like my daddy'."
Kristian posted the video on his blog, which he set up to keep friends and family posted on his health so his wife would not have to get upset by explaining his symptoms repeatedly.
He was diagnosed with cancer after an overseas trip, although he initially avoided going to the doctor as he thought it was haemorrhoids.
"He even Googled his symptoms," Rachel told Triple M.
"He said 'I think I've got bowel cancer' and I said 'just go to the doctor then!'"
"For months I said go and get it checked out."
Kristian said the doctors first thought he may have had Deep Vein Thrombosis from the flight, but a sign of lesions on his liver led to a full scan. They found cancer all over his liver that had spread from a primary tumour in his bowel.
"Apparently this is a common travel path for bowel cancer," he said.
"If I had got tests done when I first suspected something, I might have only had bowel cancer and they could have just gone straight in and cut it out."
Kristian urged listeners to get medical help no matter how small the problem may be.
"It doesn't matter if it's nothing but the best thing you can do is find out it's nothing."
Triple M's The Grill Team presenters said the video brought them to tears and encouraged their "big boofhead" listeners to go to the doctor.
They also urged listeners to give generously to the Cancer Council, which Kristian - who is self-employed - said helps with his finances as well as cancer research.
