I just received my new rice cooker, a 3-cup Zojirushi (the European model: NS-LAQ05) and am extremely happy with it. However, I was wondering whether it would be possible to use it to cook grains as well, such as millet, quinoa, bulgur, barley... But I am not sure about how much water I should use and what programme would be best. This rice cooker has 5 settings: white/mixed rice, sushi, quick, porridge and brown rice. So far I have tried only the white/mixed and brown rice setting.
Noi siamo usciti fore
del maggior corpo al ciel ch'è pura luce:
luce intellettüal, piena d'amore;
amor di vero ben, pien di letizia;
letizia che trascende ogne dolzore.
I use my rice cooker to make quinoa at least twice a week.
I use a brand which doesn't need rinsing and measure one part quinoa to two parts water.
I then use the quick white rice/steam setting (I have a Japanese Sanyo rice cooker).
Your 'quick' setting should work.
I don't usually make millet or barley on their own but add them to rice so I can't answer for these grains.
thank you! I'll try to cook quinoa then. By the way, do you add millet and barley to white or to brown rice?

Sarah's Key (Elle s'appelait Sarah)
Director : Gilles Paquet-Brenner
Screenplay : Serge Joncour and Gilles Paquet-Brenner (based on the novel by Tatiana De Rosnay)
MPAA Rating : PG-13
Year of Release : 2010
Stars : Kristin Scott Thomas (Julia Jarmond), Mélusine Mayance (Sarah Starzynski), Niels Arestrup (Jules Dufaure), Frédéric Pierrot (Bertrand Tezac), Michel Duchaussoy (Édouard Tezac), Dominique Frot (Geneviève Dufaure), Natasha Mashkevich (Mme Starzynski), Gisèle Casadesus (Mamé), Aidan Quinn (William Rainsferd), Sarah Ber (Rachel), Arben Bajraktaraj (M. Starzynski), Karina Hin (Zoé), James Gerard (Mike Bambers)
Sarah's Key (Elle s'appelait Sarah) is a consistently engrossing, sometimes stunning, but emotionally uneven film that literalizes its thematic insistence on the importance of storytelling in maintaining historical memory by making an often neglected chapter of the Holocaust the core of its own narrative. Based on Tatiana De Rosnay's 2007 international bestseller, the film follows two intertwined storylines, one set in 1942 and one set during the present.
The historical story involves Sarah Starzynski (Mélusine Mayance), a Parisian Jewish preteen who is arrested with her parents by the collaborative French police in the Vel' d'Hiv' Roundup in June of 1942, so named because more 13,000 French Jews were interned for more than a week at the Vélodrome d'hiver (Vel' d'Hiv', for short), an indoor cycling arena that was once home to the Tour de France, in stifling heat with little food or water and no bathroom facilities. The Roundup is one of France's most painful historical moments (in 1995, then-President Jacques Chirac described it as "black hours [that] will stain our history forever and are an injury to our past and our traditions"), and director Gilles Paquet-Brenner (who cowrote the screenplay with Serge Joncour) depicts the atrocity with a sickening intensity that does not rely on graphic violence or overtly shocking images, but rather on an accumulation of individual details, both witnessed and described. Thus, we need only brief glimpses of internees urinating in the stands and a woman committing suicide by leaping from one of the upper decks to understand just how horrible the situation was; similarly, a woman who lived across the street describing decades later how she had to close her windows during the Roundup, not to shut out the noise, but rather the stench, provides sickening testimony that stays with you long after the film has ended. (Interesting, Sarah's Key is the second French film of the past year to deal with the events at the Vélodrome, the other being Rose Bosch's La rafle [The Roundup], which is based on the firsthand accounts of one of the event's few survivors.)
The Vel' d'Hiv' Roundup is just the beginning of Sarah's story, though, as she is moved to an internment camp and separated from her parents (Arben Bajraktaraj and Natasha Mashkevich), but maintains her resolve to escape and make it back to their Parisian apartment where her little brother is hiding in a locked closet. That apartment becomes the key point of connection between past and present, as the present-tense story finds Julia Jarmond (Kristin Scott Thomas), an American-born journalist who now lives and works in Paris, about to move into it with her husband Bertrand (Frédéric Pierrot) and their teenage daughter Zoé (Karina Hin). It just so happens that Julia is working on a story about the Vel' d'Hiv' Roundup, and in the process she uncovers the history of the apartment, which is being given to them by Bertrand's parents. Wracked by guilt that she may be moving her family into what is essentially a stolen home, Julia becomes intent on tracking down any surviving members of the Starzynski family, an obsession that is duly complicated by an unexpected and perhaps miraculous mid-life pregnancy that splits she and Bertrand apart.
When Sarah's Key is focused on the title character, it is as gripping a piece of historical fiction as one could imagine, buoyed by the superb performance by Mélusine Mayance as Sarah. Mayance is compelling as we watch her shed childhood through a series of infernos, at one point literalized by a three-day fever from which she awakes more determined than ever. She embodies an optimism and determination that is childlike in the best way and is therefore fundamentally tragic because we know deep inside that it is misplaced. She has been thrown into the maw of modern history's worst atrocity and fights to maintain her humanity at every turn, but even the best fights sometimes end tragically. Whether she survives or not is one of the film's most riveting questions, but in hindsight we recognize that, whether she lives or dies, she will be forever defined by the tragedies that engulfed her, a harrowing ordeal that Mayance shoulders with great skill and dexterity.
Unfortunately, despite a fine performance by Kristin Scott Thomas, the present-tense story is not nearly, or even comparatively, compelling except as it moves the narrative forward in learning more about Sarah's fate. The melodrama of Julia's familial conundrum--to keep the baby and complicate her already complicated life or abort it and continue on as is--should intertwine emotionally with Sarah's journey nearly 60 years earlier, but it doesn't. On paper, one can see the thematic connections between the two stories (and perhaps they work better together in the novel, which I have not read), but cinematically they don't cohere, and as a result Julia's travails feel largely irrelevant except in offering temporary respites from Sarah's arduous journey and thereby escalating the tensions around her fate.

I will have to check this out (I like the first two installments, and I like weird porn).
You would probably love Babyface 2. - September 21, 2010 at 5:47 PM
- Yum-Yum said...
Karim Amir: I'm sorry I didn't include any screencaps featuring Jack Baker or Amber Lynn in this entry; they were just moving around too much.
Of course I missed the episode the where Roger Craig (same name as the 49er running back from the 80s) won all that loot. :(
Gore-Gore Girl: Babyface 2, eh? You mean to tell me there's a flick out there that features Lois Ayres, Taija Rae and Stacey Donovan?!? - September 21, 2010 at 10:01 PM
- Gore-Gore Girl said...
^ Yup. And Jamie Gillis (with mystical sexual powers) climbing out of a cake and doing a striptease for the ladies' hen party.
- September 23, 2010 at 9:43 AM
- Gore-Gore Girl said...
Oh! And Careena Collins. Can't forget Careena Collins...
- September 23, 2010 at 9:45 AM

Would it be indiscreet to request more pieces revolving around the career of Tom Byron?
"Thrusting bureaucracy"... I channeled D.H. Lawrence for this one. He just nodded. ;)~ - September 23, 2010 at 1:24 PM
- Jerry said...
One more pointless comment scarcely worth a response... have you seen either WET WILDERNESS or (ahem...) WATERPOWER? They're both very strange X-rated films from the mid-late 70s. I'd love to get your interpretation of WET WILDERNESS (which steals much of Bernard Herrmann's soundtrack for PSYCHO)... oh, and forget I ever mentioned WATERPOWER.
- September 23, 2010 at 10:35 PM
- Yum-Yum said...
Gore-Gore Girl: I've found a couple of places that stock Babyface 2... So, yeah, I look forward to seeing Jamie Gillis do his thing. And, of course, Careena Collins.
Jerry: Tom Byron? Sure, I can do that. Even though he plays a bit of a brat, I thought he looked rather handsome in DiMJ3, especially during the interview segments.
I've heard of D.H. Lawrence. :)
WTF? How I can I forget Waterpower? I mean, it also goes by the name, "Enema Bandit."
Anyway, despite the fact that both films look mentally unstable, I'll try to keep an eye out for them. - September 23, 2010 at 11:13 PM
- Karim Amir said...
My memory must be going because I cannot recall if I asked you if you have seen Egoyan's Chloe. Have you seen it? :)
I think this film needs a review on House of Self-Indulgence:
We're a week behind on Jeopardy! - September 25, 2010 at 8:12 PM
- Yum-Yum said...
Nope, I haven't seen Egoyan's Chloe. I have to admit, I am somewhat intrigued by its purported campiness. And, of course, the Toronto/Amanda Seyfried factor.
Are you aware that the link you provided is for a trailer to a Ugandan action movie? ;)
Seriously, after watching that, my mind was kinda blown.
A week, eh? I'm not trying to spoil your future enjoyment, but keep an eye out for the 2000 dollar clue in the "Me" category near the end of Double Jeopardy! I smoked it. My celebratory dance was extra obnoxious (the air was humped hard that day, my friends). - September 25, 2010 at 9:58 PM
- Gore-Gore Girl said...
I watched the movie yesterday - thank you thank you for bringing it to my attention. It's a masterpiece.
And in my porn nerd opinion, the mystery interviewer is Harry Reems who played The Teacher in the original. His voice is pretty distinctive.
God I loved this movie. I just ordered the fourth one. - September 26, 2010 at 3:47 PM
- Yum-Yum said...
Awesome. I'm glad you enjoyed it.
I know the identity of the mystery interviewer; it's revealed at the end of part 4. *maniacal laugh* :D - September 26, 2010 at 9:20 PM
- Thomas Duke said...
I haven't seen this, but HAVE seen part 4, which has the hot fake Anne Carlisle touring hell and it's various orgies. It appears to flash back to the third one. I was always curious as to what happened to her pre-hell fuck fest. NOW I KNOW! God bless the Yumster for all ye have given the children of the world, these fables of cocks and flames and hairspray and shit.
- October 8, 2010 at 12:29 PM
- Yum-Yum said...
And here I thought I was being all cool and junk by skipping parts 1 and 2, when you come along and say that you went straight to part four (I'm assuming you haven't seen the first two chapters). Nevertheless, you go, girl!
- October 8, 2010 at 11:35 PM
- Thomas Duke said...
I've just seen part 1 and 4. You know, they should run all of these on TV during a marathon so everyone can finally catch up.
- October 9, 2010 at 12:36 AM
- R100 said...
You know... fucking pizzas.
Excellent review! - May 6, 2011 at 10:07 PM
- Yum-Yum said...
Thanks, R100. :)
- May 7, 2011 at 5:02 AM
- Jeff @ IAFD said...
Awesome review -- just one quick correction. It's not Careena Collins being shaved by Tom Byron, it's Jennifer Noxt. Careena fucks Marc Wallice later on.
- December 1, 2011 at 5:00 PM
- Yum-Yum said...
Thanks, Jeff. Yeah, it looks like I mixed up my brunettes.

The Marylebone Hotel
47 Welbeck Street, London, England, UK
Neighborhood: Marylebone
Check availability as rates may vary for dates. Best rate guaranteed.
Naming a hotel after a neighborhood is a clear sign that your aim is to more or less sum the place up, and in that the Marylebone Hotel succeeds. Once an outlying village, now part of central London, Marylebone itself is an odd mix: its quiet, rather posh residential neighborhoods and its smallish, highly individual retail offerings lie within striking distance of Oxford and Bond Streets, home to some of the world's best (and busiest) shopping, not to mention Hyde Park and, at a stretch, the theatres of the West End. Not a bad all-purpose home base for a visit to the capital, and not a bad place for a boutique-influenced luxury hotel like the Doyle Collection's Marylebone Hotel.
With 257 rooms and suites it's not exactly a mom-and-pop operation, but the Marylebone rarely feels anywhere near as large as it is. The style is 20th-century classic, with some Art Deco overtones, and if the standard rooms aren't quite palatial in size, the feel is luxe through and through. There's a ton of meeting space and a bustling restaurant and bar, as well as a fully equipped gym, spa and indoor pool. It's a worthy option for any visit to the West End, but for shoppers in particular — this is about as close as you get to sleeping at Selfridge's without stowing away in the department store's home furnishings section.
- Complimentary upgrade upon hotel check-in, based upon availability
- One complimentary glass of champagne or one cocktail, per guest, upon arrival
- Complimentary fruit plate, refreshed daily throughout the course of the stay
- 20% discount on all food purchased in the hotel (inc breakfast, lunch or dinner)

Hey Have been quite interested in the idea of attending one of Steves Workshops for a while now. But it will take some time to save up for and then I'd like to go on my own because it's the only way I feel I can submerge myself fully into the weekend.

Is homework really necessary?
Studies shown that too much homework isn't beneficial to students, but many researchers think some amount of take-home work is valuable.
Lynn Stoddard's years as a teacher and administrator in northern Utah schools produced a few opinions on the educational system. Among them, homework isn't needed, at least from a traditional standpoint, reports KSL.com.
"It's such a strong myth in our society that teacher-assigned homework is good for kids," Stoddard was quoted.
More from MSN Living: 51 perfect daytrips for families
He debates that take-home work is detrimental for a few reasons:
• It is an excessive burden on parents.
• It interferes with family activities.
• It puts much stress on many students.
• It makes less time for other beneficial interests.
• It gives children an aversion to learning.
When it comes to homework, Stoddard says kids tend to learn what's necessary to pass a test and then ditch the information as soon as it's no longer needed.
Instead, Stoddard said children should have self-chosen home study.
"If you can get a child curious about something, you can't stop them from reading about it," he was quoted. "It's time to look at individual children, instead of a standardized public system we have now."
But a review by researchers at Duke University of more than 60 research studies on homework between 1987 and 2003 showed that, within limits, there is a positive interaction between the amount of homework which is done and student achievement. The research supports the '10-minute rule,' the widely accepted practice of assigning 10 minutes of homework per day per grade-level.

*2012 junior pewter medalist, '08 U.S. intermediate pewter medalist
Began skating at age 6 ... Participated in the Basic Skills Program ... Formerly coached by Suna Murray (2005-11) and Tom McGinnis (2000-06).
Parents are Tobey and Mary Ann, older brother is Sam ... Four-year high school honor roll student ... 2012 U.S. Figure Skating Scholastic Honors Team, three-time National Latin Exam Medalist, AP Scholar ... received Skating Club of Boston's 2011 Robert L. Black Memorial Award for best student-athlete and the 2010 Blanchard Award for Most Improved Skater ... Co-creator and co-producer of skating gala to benefit Paul Newman's Hole in the Wall Gang Camp ... Show raised $20,000 over two years (2010, '11), enabling seven critically ill children to attend summer camp.
Twitter: @HarrisonChoate
I look up to ... my mom. She's the hardest-working, funniest person I know. She can make anybody laugh and is always willing to work for what needs to be done.
My favorite thing about being a figure skater is ... the feeling at the end of a free skate when my legs are on fire, and I'm pushing as hard as I can. I just feel so free and so alive.
I started skating because ... I hated hockey. My parents put me in hockey classes because my older brother played. I was not a fan. After class one day, I saw the figure skaters and asked if I could try that instead.
My figure skating hero is ... Ross Miner. Without a doubt one of the hardest working and nicest people there is. He's a great role model for everyone in figure skating. I'm pretty lucky to be able to train with him.
I manage my pre-skate jitters by ... listening to "I'm Alive" by Kenny Chesney and Dave Matthews.
My favorite thing about performing is ... the crowd. If I do a great job, they get so pumped up with me. If I'm struggling, they support me. It's nice to always have that there.
Something most people don't know about me is ... I'm a huge "Seinfeld" addict. Whenever I'm not actually watching it, I'm just watching it in my head.
The best moment of my figure skating career thus far was ... at the 2012 U.S. Championships. I was so depressed after bombing the short and ending up 10th. But that just made skating a great free skate and pulling up to fourth so much better. I literally had zero expectations of medaling after that short and to end up with the pewter medal was a huge shock. It was awesome that I got to be on the podium with Philip Warren and Tim Dolensky because they're two of my best friends in the skating world.
I always ... rub my eyes before starting a program.

WINSTED >> As holiday festivities come to an end, the First Church of Winsted rang in the first weekend of the new year by hosting their 23rd annual Boar's Head Festival.
The festival celebrates the Epiphany — the arrival of the Three Kings at the nativity in Bethlehem and the revelation of baby Jesus as King. The festival retells the story through music and dance, Renaissance style. The festival's organizers have changed the procession every year, and that continuing tradition includes medieval instrumentalists and a tuba Christmas celebration for the 2013 version. Many of the festival's songs encouraged the congregation participate and sing certain lines.
Originating in England, the Boar's Head Festival recounts the story of a wandering scholar who was attacked by a wild boar. The scholar had no way to defend himself, aside from the book he was carrying at the time. The scholar jammed the book down the boar's throat, killing the boar. Subsequently, the scholar decapitated the boar and brought his head back for a procession and dinner.
The story of the Boar's Head Festival dates back to the 17th century, crossing the Atlantic Ocean and coming to America during colonial times.
The festival started off with a call for assembly and a bagpiper, played by local artist Ken Storrs, followed by the lighting of the candle symbolizing the coming of Christ.
Waterbury resident Joy Bellows said the festival and bagpiper was a big hit.
"I thought (the festival) was great! My favorite part had to be the bagpiper, he was my favorite. I liked the entire thing, the entire thing was really good. It was fantastic," she said.
Next, amidst a brass fanfare, the Herald announced the entrance of the royal court. The king and queen, lords and ladies, and the carolers entered on stage in anticipation of baby Jesus and the Three Kings' arrival.
The festival then continued with the boar's head presentation, the singing of "The Boar's Head Carol" and Irish step-dancers Dierdre and Una Shea and Tia Mongitore and Scottish sword dancer Karen Lavallee-Tente dancing before the royal court.
Each participant of the festival when they entered, walked around the perimeter of the pews and then walked down the center aisle to the stage. Continued...
The festival goes on to the entrance of King Wenceslas with his page, singing the song "Good King Wenceslas." Following their entrance, the woodsmen presented the Yule Log with its rider and the singing of "Deck the Halls." The Monks enter the scene singing "O Come, O Come, Emmanuel" with eagerness to introduce the Son of God.
Next, Joseph and Mary entered on stage with baby Jesus and the Shepards with their live farm animals, including, sheep, goats, chickens and a dove courtesy of Commerford Farm in Goshen and the King family. The livestock was incorporated into a living nativity, adding to the communal atmosphere.
Finally, the Three Kings arrived led by the gold star, with their gifts of gold, frankincense and myrrh. The first king, King Melchoir was played by David Pastorello, the second, Caspar, by David Lewis and third, Balthazar by Reverend Timothy Yeadon.
After the Three Kings arrive Cynthia Rines sang "O Holy Night" which Harwinton resident Bonnie Mazzaferro looked forward to the most.
"My favorite part is when during the song of "O Holy Night, fall on your knees" and everyone falls on their knees to adore baby Jesus, the royals, the court, everything. I just love it I come every year." she said.
Once everyone was assembled, they all knelt down before the new King, baby Jesus, followed by the recessional and the final song "Joy to the World/Glory to God."
For Barkhamsted resident Anne Fenn, it was her second time attending the festival, and has become a new tradition.
"The show was wonderful. It was a treat, it was a blessing, wonderful way to spend a Saturday afternoon," she said.
The next showing of the Boar's Head Festival will be Sunday at 4 p.m. at the First Winsted Church, at 95 North Main Street.

LIFE With Young Actresses on the Brink of Fame
J. R. Eyerman—TIME & LIFE Pictures/Getty Images
Marilyn Monroe poses in 1947. The next year, she'd get a six-month Columbia Pictures contract, followed by a Marx Brothers movie in 1949, and, eventually, near-mythic status as the quintessential Hollywood "sex goddess."
There's nothing quite like charting the ascent of a major new Hollywood player, and as the premier pictorial weekly of its era, LIFE magazine was uniquely positioned to feature more than a few famous faces early in their careers, well before they became bona fide stars.
Here, LIFE.com offers a gallery of some of moviedom's most celebrated (and gorgeous) young talents, on the very brink of life-altering fame, from Jane Fonda and Sophie Loren to Audrey Hepburn, Kim Novak, Rita Moreno and other legends.

When Brian and Christy Patrick of Rockingham visited a local bank to finance their dream of opening Patrick Tire, they found their ability to work hard and provide a good product and service weren't enough to get them the cash they needed to open their business. They lacked a business plan and were directed to the Small Business Center at Richmond Community College.
"We contacted the Small Business Center that day," said Brian. "After meeting with Deborah Hardison, we found we didn't know nearly as much as we thought we did."
Hardison has headed the center since 2010, and has worked with numerous entrepreneurs interested in developing business plans. It's been nearly a year since she began working with the Patricks.
"They have been ideal clients," said Hardison. "They put forth the effort not just to complete a business plan, but to work through each element of the plan to have a solid working document. We spent many evenings going back and forth to fine-tune the plan and research funding sources."
Meanwhile, Brian and Christy continued working their respective jobs.
"There is a lot of research in developing a plan. You have a competitor analysis. We had to research the tire industry to see what the outlook for it is. You have to know about keeping books, paying taxes, and securing permits. Without Deborah, we would have been lost," said Christy.
Brian found the cash flow analysis to be incredibly helpful.
"When you start adding up copy paper, ink, and other things to run the office, you realize there are more overhead costs than you planned for. She went over pricing our products and services with us to determine exactly how much we had to charge to make a profit. We also looked at exactly what we would offer," said Brian.
When they felt they were ready, the couple took the plunge in May and opened Patrick Tire on U.S. 1 South in Rockingham, just a mile south of the U.S. 74 bypass. They sell tires both retail and wholesale. They offer tire and brake services as well as oil changes and basic automotive service work.
"We have actually done better than we expected," said Brian, who works in the shop. "Christy is staying at her job and Shirley Patrick is here to help me with sales and the office. Christy does the bookkeeping at night. It's good to know Deborah is still available if we have questions."
Shirley Patrick has been in the tire business for nearly 20 years and is excited RCC was able to help the couple at no charge.
"I think it is fabulous RCC can provide such a service. It's been a good learning experience for them and got them off on the right foot. It would have been much harder for them to go through this without RCC. I know all about purchasing and sales, but they received assistance with business structuring that was important. Things are going well for us," she said.
Christy and Brian encourage anyone interested in starting their own business to contact Hardison.
"If you don't have a business background, she will give you resource material and teach you everything you need to know about starting your own business. It's not an overnight process and takes a lot of patience. We've found with patience and hard work it comes together," said Brian.
Hardison can be reached by calling 910-410-1687 or e-mailing firstname.lastname@example.com.

SOURCE: St. Germain Catering
Women- and minority-run catering company, in the Washington DC metro area, raising the bar for diversity.
Vienna, VA (PRWEB) March 06, 2013
Saint Germain Catering, a catering company in the DC Metro area, is celebrating its ever diverse menu by remembering its diversity status as a certified Women's Business Enterprise National Council (WBENC) and Small, Women-owned and Minority-owned (SWaM) company.
Those acronyms mean a lot more than one might suspect. WBENC means that Saint Germain Catering is owned, controlled, and operated by women. Similarly, the other acronym, SWaM is a Virginia-based certification program is used by state and federal governments in order to find companies to contract outside of major corporations. Both of these groups strive to offer more opportunities to their constituents.
Saint Germain Catering, which serves Northern Virginia, Maryland, and Washington, DC, is one of very few WBENC-certified caterers in the DC Metro area. The catering company has had the opportunities over the years to cater to a number of governmental functions and events at Fortune 500 companies in the area. Perhaps the next grand function that they cater will be one of yours? Saint Germain Catering offers special menus for bar/bat mitzvahs, baby showers, bridal showers and weddings, as well as corporate event catering. They also offer changing seasonal menu options for holiday celebrations.
Saint Germain Catering's certification as a woman-owned business can only be further proven by its owner Ms. Mina Ebrahimi and its Vice President Ms. Sarah Miller. "We are proud to have such a diverse staff and upper management here at Saint Germain Catering," says Miller. "Our certified status as such is only the elegant sauce on the delicious entrees of our quality establishment."
To match their diverse owner and staff, their food is equally diverse. With menu options that range from Asian cuisine, to Bar/Bat Mitzvah specialties, to Old-Fashioned Southern cooking, to seasonal specialties like Cajun fare for Mardi Gras, Saint Germain's Menu offerings are both assorted and appetizing.
Who knows what other fantastic and varied menu options will be offered in the future by the brilliant people working at Saint Germain Catering?
About Saint Germain Catering
Since 1988, Saint Germain Catering has been serving the Northern Virginia, Washington DC, and Maryland area with top-notch food for a wide variety of different events, including weddings, bar mitzvahs, birthday parties, business meetings, and many more.

A PERSONAL statement is the most crucial part of any college application essay, but according to the essay writing experts of online custom writing service RushEssay.Com, many students do not get to realize its essence, based on a lot of poorly written drafts being forwarded to the company by their customers, intended for editing.
"Writing this part is a tough task, but they [students] must keep in mind that scribbling their college admission essays well and right will give them the opportunity to distinguish, if not promote themselves in the most subtle way, from the rest of the applicants who are all hoping to be given a slot into their target college or university," said essay writer Martin Green.
Essay writing expert of RushEssay.Com, Amy Boucher, added: "That's why it is called a personal statement... it should be personal. There are students who misconstrue it as a resume in paragraph form. But more than anything else, it should provide the admission staff and the selection panel to have a scrutiny of a particular school applicant's ideas, concerns, aspirations, apprehensions, and so on. And it has to be convincing enough so that the committee who will read it will get to know an applicant much better."
Do a lot of thinking first prior to writing something, suggested essay editor Pete Gurrola. "Students should think about questions such as, 'Who I am?', 'What do I want to become', 'Why do I want to achieve that goal?', and 'Why do I really want to get there?' and so on. Their answers will surely help them in solidifying and strengthening the contents of their college applications."
Katelyn Williams, meanwhile, pointed out that a personal statement is and will always be something that should be given a lot of time to think about, write and re-write. "Senior high school students should get over the fact their first draft will always suck, but the good news is that if they still have a couple of days to revise it prior to the deadline, then they can do a lot of things to allow that first draft leave a lasting impression to the admission committee who will read it. It's like write it early and edit it frequently until the desired results are achieved."
Essay writing pundit Larry Coria agreed, but revealed there are students have the inclination to be hard on themselves when they first take a seat, grab a pen and then start writing. "Even the great writers we look up to in world literature did not get it right the first time around! So why worry making mistakes? All students need to do first is to let loose of their thoughts and transport it on a white sheet, just write, write, write and then re-write."
"Getting a second opinion also applies in writing a college admission essay. It's like when you are diagnosed with an illness, you seek the help of another doctor. When students are not sure with what they wrote, then allow 'trusted readers' to review their works—such as their family, high school teachers, some college professors and working professionals, they just know what to advice, that will make them stand out because they've been there and done those things in the past," said content editor Lana Lynch.
The essay writing experts at RushEssay.Com all agreed that ample time, enough reflection, sufficient editing and swarming assistance from credible critics and perhaps online writing services are what students need to come up with carefully-crafted personal statements and college application essays.

Nationality: BIHBorn : 02.09.1988Place of birth: Tuzla (BIH) Height: 2.10mPosition: C
Career: KK Sloboda Dita Tuzla (Bosnia & Herzegovina-D1, 2004-07), Red Star Belgrade (Serbia-SBL, 2007-10)
After leaving his hometown club in Tuzla to head for the Serbian capital, Elmedin Kikanovic managed to make something of a splash with Red Star Belgrade - although not always in a positive sense. He produced some nice performances during his time on court and particularly in European club competition where he used his mobility, impressive shooting touch and soft hands to great effect. He can also explode around the rim, run the floor and flush down some exciting dunks. However things turned sour last year when he received a 12 month ban for breaking doping regulations. When it comes to the National Team, Kikanovic made his debut at the tender age of 18 back in 2006 during the Qualifying Round for EuroBasket 2007. While he missed last summer due to his ban, he should be back in the line-up at EuroBasket 2011 and trying to show he can get his career back on track.

According to Ray Smith in the June 4 edition of The Wall Street Journal, a recent Gallup Poll reports that the number of American men who wore ties every day to work last year dropped to a record low of 6%, down from 10% in 2002. The necktie industry group sensed this trend for itself when a number of its members showed up tieless for a recent association meeting. Smith's story reports that the association is now disbanding.

Further Proof, If Any Was Needed
10 comments:
- Jeff Naylor said...
I certainly didn't need any further proof, I'm the only person at my company who wears a necktie every day and I know precious few other men who do.
It's depressing, but I don't let the lack of gentlemanly bearing on the part of others affect me. I'll be the last holdout. - June 7, 2008 at 7:36:00 AM PDT
- John said...
Good for you, Jeff.I too wear a tie every day even though my company is business casual. I just love showing up on a Friday jeans day with navy blazer, tie and shoes.
I visited Paul Winston yesterday whose father was the owner of the now defunct Chipp which had a men's store across from the old J Press in New York. Paul now has a tailor shop called Chipp2 coincidentally next to the old J Press Store. He told me that business casual and its polo shirt wearing professionals was the death knell for places like Chipp and Morty Sills. But I wish Winston well. He has a tie business now and makes shirts and suits and odd jackets. - June 7, 2008 at 2:43:00 PM PDT

it's not even necessary to wear a tie each day at DC law firms.

On the upside of this trend, at least from my own experience, is that younger men are wearing ties more than their dads. The under 30 set is a big part of my tie sales demo -- and it's growing.
Usually, kids do the opposite of what their fathers did. Fathers of this generation didn't wear ties. So hopefully, this will be an upswing. We can hope, no? - June 7, 2008 at 5:05:00 PM PDT
- Sean Tierney said...
I don't wear a tie everyday, but I do wear a tie more often thatn most anyone else. I have found that the tie is a source of power and distinction if you choose the right one. I also have found that not wearing one everyday allows me more freedom to choose better and higher quality ties for the times that I do wear them.

I teach English in Japan. We have to wear neckties but not suits. For us English teachers at my school in Japan, this is becoming more common. In the summer 'to combat global warming' from not using the AC so much in the office, Japanese men can also wear a shirt and tie, but no suit or a suit but without a tie in the summer, while in the spring apparently it is suit but no tie. It seems that the Japanese men, not unexpectedly, are trying to make as many mistakes as possible by mimicking what I have seen of many American men here in Japan. Suit but no tie (and never a pocket square), tie but no suit, and of course, with a short sleeve shirt in the spring and summer. And oh yeah, if you are going to wear a tie, make sure it is as garish as possible and does not obey the rule of stopping at the belt line. Why do so many American men hate ties, but make sure they are garish if they do wear them?

It's funny, but here in Italy specialty tie stores are popping up everywhere. From the low end, where a tie can be bought for 15 euro to the high end shops where lots of men have their ties custom made for several hundred euro.
Jeffrey- I think its because most men let their wives buy clothes for them. Why they usually choose the most horrid items for their men I do not know.
Men should dress themselves, take responsibility for knowing how to dress. Yet, it is considered unmanly in the U.S. - June 8, 2008 at 2:14:00 AM PDT

You really said a mouthful there. I've always wondered if women are taken and given some clandestine class on how to dominate their beau's dress. - June 8, 2008 at 12:42:00 PM PDT

"It's always darkest before the dawn"
I believe we are nearly at a point of reversal of this trend. Of course, it is possible that we are in a secular movement which is for all practical purposes permanent, like the change from frock coat to lounge suit. But I am seeing the turnaround in many trends which began in the 60s.
A salutary development, in my opinion, is that fraternal organizations like Freemasonry, have rebounded in the past few years, attracting many young men. And jackets and ties are de rigueur at lodge meetings. - June 9, 2008 at 5:57:00 AM PDT
- Peter said...
It's a sad thing that there is a misconception out there that wearing a tie is uncomfortable. The basic thing most tie haters don't understand is that if you get a shirt with a big enough collar you will not really notice you are wearing a tie.
As someone who wears a tie every workday and actually likes wearing them, I am saddened that the tie wearing is decreasing. It is one garment that makes every man look good! - June 12, 2008 at 12:34:00 AM PDT

Customer Reviews
C. SHARP (Utah) on January 17, 2012
We love these jerseys, the cut is comfortable and the colors are nice and bright and the 3-color style is hard to find at this price. We prefer the August brand for cut, quality, value, and style over any other we have tried. You get a BETTER quality uniform at a much better price versus the other brands.

However they are easy to create and make great gifts for storing little trinkets. Have Fun!
I want to thank Steve Ramsey at WoodworkingForMereMortals.com for his tutorial video that got me started in the box making world
Step 1: Design Your Creation
Lois Keener Ventura wrote a book on making bandsaw boxes.
This design I drew up in Sketchup (free version)
Why was that particular type of wood used?
7. How big is it? What are the dimensions?
Thank you
The original blank was made with an 8/4 walnut core and a piece of lace would laminated (glued on the front and back. The overall rough blank size was 3 x 6 x 11.
Good luck with your project. You can download the complete pdf of the project on the first page. I believe. The nice thing about band saw boxes is that nothing is wrong if its not the same than its just a design change :) Checkout my project videos on my website 3dwoodworkingplans dot com.
Thank you
BTW, if you're looking for nice, figured woods for smaller projects like this, you should check out Horizon Wood Product's online specialty shop. It's got a pretty slick setup with zoomable photos and whatnot!.
My students usually finished of the interiors of the drawers by brushing them with a coat of enamel paint and then blowing in a puff of rayon flock of a matching color. It gives them the look of being lined in felt and hides any minor sanding faults.
Very creative shapes in your examples!

Dear Dario: Hope you are well on your way to recovery. I ride two of your framesets--CCKP and Marcelo. They are the best I have owned in 35 years. Hope you will continue to be a world leader in this art.
John Hoops, Massachusetts
Dario, I have just discovered your work through your interview in Roleur magazine. Since researching your frames I have decided the only bike I truly want to ride is a Responsorium with your painting. Over any Colnago, Ciocc, or any other marque. Reassured you produce the most beautiful bikes in the world. I like to paint and you have inspired me as you have combined fine art and mechanical art in the one piece. Attached is a picture of my beloved Conti. I would love to find out more about this marque - made by Ciocc - or vice versa? Dedaacciai tubes with a barley twist pressing? My thoughts and prayers are with you. You truly are a master. Thank you.
Adam Leddin, Orange, NSW, Australia
Dear Dario I was sad to hear that you have lymphoma, my mother has been battling cancer recently and she has been coming through beautifully I hope and pray that the same is true for you. I love your bikes they are works of art they are likea a breath of fresh air to me. All the best and a fast recovery
Charles Adams, Jamestown North Carolina
Dario, my thoughts and best wishes are with you for your recovery. the cycling world needs more alchemists, more Renaissance mutants, iconoclasts to keep them honest. I hope to see and chat with you again at interbike. Your work is admired and your attitude is blessed. matt hale
Matt Hale, San Diego
Caro Dario, non ho avuto ancora la fortuna di incontrarla personalmente ma spero di farlo quando ritorno in Italia a Settembre, da quello che vedo il suo lavoro e' felomenale. Quando si ama quello che si fa San Pietro fa' una dispensazione personale. Le auguro una spledida guarigione e prego che i dottori (con l'aiuto di San Pietro) possano individuare la migliore cura per lei. Auguri anche alla famiglia.
PierAngelo (PA) Beltrami, Harper's Ferry, WV
Dario, I rode my bike to work every day until retirement, now I ride where I please. I have many bicycles but I like the Italians best & your bikes touch my heart! May The Lord of Life, The God of Abraham, Isaac & Jacob stretch out his hand to heal you.
Donald Hickerson, Olympia, Washington, USA
Some twenty years ago, I saw this on a sign at the employee entrance of a jewelry manufacturer: "Artists work with their hearts. Laborers work with their hands. Craftsmen work with their hearts AND their hands!" You are in my thoughts and prayers. The world needs its craftsmen.
Tom Nyzio, Pawtucket, RI
I wish you well in your battle with this awful illness. Your bikes are works of art and beauty, and you have created a legacy of which I and many are proud to enjoy. Best wishes.
Doug, Dallas, Texas
Dario, while I'm not a rich man or a pro rider,I ride your 8:30 am everyday to work It's my most prized posession. Its funny what a bike can do for your soul. Thanks
Peter, Portland OR
Dario: I just love my Pegoretti bicycle and can't wait for the next one with the most outlandish paint job ever. Too many frames rely on gimmicks with multi-shaping, mixed materials, and you just deliver the goods in well thought out, simply artful way. Your chain stays are sublime, and your head tubes are just brilliance! Every ride, I can't get over how a totally aluminum bike can ride so plush and read my mind when steering. Best of luck on your full & speedy recovery.
Moses Botbol, Brighton, MA USA

Entergy Couple Works Through Christmas to Restore Power
By: Adam Rodriguez
Updated: January 1, 2013
Entergy is finally scaling back.
The power company started sending hundreds of linemen home Tuesday after the Christmas snow storm that knocked out the power to 200,000 homes in Arkansas.
But local crews are still working overtime until everyone has power restored.
Wheeler and Cheryl Sims were about to enjoy a family Christmas when the power died. They've hardly seen each other since.
Wheeler went straight to work repairing lines, while Cheryl packed a bag.
"Because I work storm logistics," Cheryl said. "We had to get lodging for all the crews coming in."
"It's tiring," Wheeler said of working through the holiday. "Long hours. Sixteen hours a day."
Even with crews going back home, the Sims say they will be working overtime for at least a couple of days.

iPod Touch vs. iPod Nano: Apple's 2012 iPods compared
Like clockwork, Apple never fails to refresh its iPod lineup every fall. In recent years, though, one can't help but notice that the ritualized iPod unveiling has lost some of its gusto compared with the fanfare surrounding the iPhone and iPad.
Still, Apple remains the top manufacturer of portable media players. Those of us old enough to remember the "iPod wars" that occurred nearly a decade ago can attest to the fact that Apple's tenacity in making the world's most popular MP3 player laid the groundwork for the success of the iPhone (pour one out for the Zune, friends). Apple may have moved on to bigger, better products, but maintaining its dominance in the diminishing world of MP3 players is just good housekeeping.
And so, the 2012 Apple iPod lineup offers a mix of new and old.… Read more
