Makes one large or two small challah loaves
2 eggsWater
1/2 cup oil
1 tablespoon honey
1 tablespoon vanilla
1/2 cup sugar
4 to 4 1/2 cups flour
1 packet active dry yeast
PLACE eggs in measuring cup and add enough water to make 1 1/2 cups liquid. Pour mixture into standing mixer bowl and add oil, honey and vanilla.
ADD sugar, flour and yeast to egg mixture.
MIX with dough hook for 8 to 10 minutes. Add more flour if needed, until dough is soft and pliable.
PLACE dough in well-greased bowl, cover lightly and let rise in warm place for about an hour. Punch dough down and separate into 3, 4, 5 or 6 pieces, according to braid preferences, using a scale if possible to make sure they are the same weight.
FORM the pieces into balls, then roll the balls into strands about 12 inches long. For a 6-braid challah, place the strands in a row, parallel to one another. Pinch the tops of the strands together. Move the outside right strand over two strands. Then take the second strand from the left and move it to the far right. Take the outside left strand and move it over two. Move second strand from the right over to the far left. Start over with the outside right strand.
CONTINUE process until all strands are braided. For a straight loaf, tuck ends underneath. For a circular loaf, twist into a circle, pinching ends together.
PLACE braided loaves on a greased cookie sheet with at least 2 inches in between. Let rise again until doubled.
BRUSH tops with an egg wash and bake at 350 degrees for about 40 minutes.

The Museum of Flight Tower at Boeing Field
The Museum of Flight reopened its newly renovated and updated Tower exhibit about flight and air traffic control on May 9, 2009. Created by the Museum's Exhibits staff, the interactive exhibits engage visitors in how air traffic controllers keep air travelers safe in the busy skies and airports of United States. Visitors can learn how pilots communicate and work with people on the ground to navigate through traffic at airports and stay safely separated from other airplanes. Visitors are able to view the King County International Airport (KCIA) airfield from the best vantage point in the Museum. They can also hear the KCIA air traffic controllers and pilots as they approach and land at the airport.
In addition to exhibits about air traffic control, there are four exhibits about flight on the bridge leading to the Tower. These exhibits highlight current ideas about the evolution and biomechanics of animal flight, basic concepts of physics applied to flight, the history of human flight and our planet's weather and how it affects flight. The flight path visualization artwork at the entrance to the Tower is Flight Patterns by Aaron Koblin.

The Outcast Cardinal
There is in these Memoirs no revelation of József Mindszenty as a person, nothing to be compared with the presentation of the person we find in John XXIII's journals. By page thirteen he is fifty-two years old and Bishop of Veszprém. This is modesty, though not perhaps humility. He takes it for an obvious truth that our interest in him is an interest in him as an ecclesiastic, as the victim of one of the most cruel and absurd of the communist show trials, as the recluse of the United States Embassy in Budapest, as the man compelled to leave Hungary by the united pressure of President Nixon and Pope Paul, as the man set aside and humiliated by an ecclesiastical bureaucracy determined upon a settlement between Church and State in the Hungary of Kádár.
Mindszenty was an energetic, honest, devoted seminarian, priest, and bishop. He was prudent and traditionally minded, but he was imprisoned three times: first, under the brief communist regime in 1919, then by the Nazis and their Arrow Cross allies in the last days of the Second World War, finally (when he was a Cardinal and Archbishop of Esztergom and Hungarian Primate) in 1948 by Rákosi's government. During his third imprisonment he was beaten continually, deprived of sleep, dressed up as a clown, possibly drugged; in the end, he was ready to plead guilty to a variety of absurd charges in the truth of which only the most gullible Soviet sympathizers in the West could have believed. Certainly his accusers didn't; they were simply intent upon constructing what in post-Watergate days we have become accustomed to call a scenario.
With the revolution that brought Nagy to power in 1956, Mindszenty was one of the first captives to be released. He hoped for Western intervention to save the revolution but the West was preoccupied with the Suez adventure (a matter he never mentions) and this may have had some influence in strengthening those in the Soviet Politburo who were hot for intervention. His decision, entirely understandable, not to give the regime an opportunity to imprison him again or to murder him (as it did Maléter and Nagy), but to enter the United States Embassy as a refugee began the last and perhaps most bitter period of his life; for he found that in the end, both before and after he left Hungary in 1971, the ecclesiastical apparatus he had served so faithfully and with such sacrifice had no use for him and believed him to be an obstacle to better relations between the Church and the regime. "I have loved justice and hated iniquity, therefore I die in exile"—we are tempted to make this his epitaph.
The picture that comes out of the Memoirs is that of a man who saw life in Hungarian rather than in universal terms. One gets the impression that what happens outside the countries of the Danube basin is a kind of shadow play; the center of the …

Letter to the US Treasury Secretary-designate Timothy F. Geithner
January 26, 2009
Mr. Timothy F. Geithner
US Treasury Secretary-designate
Dear Mr. Secretary-designate:
The undersigned are encouraged by your responses to questions from the Senate Finance Committee about the Obama administration's position on IMF reform.
We believe that the package of IMF reforms that was agreed to a year ago and submitted to the Congress last November is inadequate, particularly in light of the ongoing global economic and financial crisis. We urge you and the administration to defer its Congressional consideration for now. Instead, we urge you to reopen the package starting in your discussions with other governments in advance of the meeting of G-20 heads of government in London on April 2, 2009.
The IMF's legitimacy and relevance must be substantially enhanced and supported through bold steps to realign significantly voting power in the IMF, to augment the Fund's resources commensurate with the needs of today's globalized economy, to implement the Fund's mandate for exchange-rate surveillance, and to reform, once and for all, the management selection process in the IMF.
We look forward to working with you on these crucial issues.

Stock Status: In Stock
Establishes uniform specifications for describing design and performance characteristics, acceptance and qualification test methods, and calibration techniques, and procedures for presenting test data for piezoelectric (including ferroelectric) pressure and sound-pressure transducers.Scope:This standard covers piezoelectric (including ferro-electric) pressure transducers and piezoelectric sound pressure transducers. Pressure and sound-pressure types could be the same instrument differing only in the method of calibration and manner of specifying performance. With the exception of certain impedance and charge measurements, this standard is also applicable to piezoelectric transducers with built-in amplifiers.Sound pressure transducers sense and measure the pressure oscillations within an elastic fluid medium experiencing stress-strain waves. When installed near the sound source or in the wall of a test object, the transducer behavior relates to its pressure response. When installed in a sound field, considerable interaction occurs at higher frequencies during the measuring transaction, changing the quantity being measured and relating transducer behavior to its free-field or diffuse-field response. Both aspects of transducer behavior are covered in this standard.Included among the specific types of piezoelectric pressure transducers to which this standard is applicable are the following:

The Great Synagogue of Brussels, on Rue de la Regence, was completed in 1878.
A "stately Romanesque" building, the Great Synagogue was designed by Christian architect Desire DeKeyser.
The facade features a three-storied gabled midsection flanked by four-story towers.
This ornate building also houses several Jewish organizations, including the Jewish Consistoire and the Communaute Israelite de Bruxelles.
Brussels has over 20,000 Jewish inhabitants.

It's not an easy task choosing the right ecommerce development company to build your ecommerce website solution. Just searching on the keywords "ecommerce solutions" in Google brings back over 1.8 million web pages: that's a lot of development companies potentially offering to deliver you the best ecommerce solutions out there. So, the question is how do you protect your investment by choosing the right ecommerce web development company first time who not only has the technical programming skills to deliver award wining e commerce solutions but the business skills that have a sales slant to deliver a successful online business? At Advansys we have devised a set of ecommerce guidelines to help you make the right decision when choosing one of the many ecommerce solutions out there.
An internet shopper will make a decision in the first 6 seconds on whether they will stay on your ecommerce website and purchase a product or decide to go to one of your competitor sites. For that reason the web design to be compelling and have the stickiness for the shopper to stay. That could be due to the high quality images of the products you are selling to entice the customer with the attention to detail or the easy to use layout. To instill confidence in the internet shopper to part with their money your web design has to look high quality with a professional feel. Dont fall into the trap of buying cheap off the shelf ecommerce template designs which do the exact opposite. Instead chose an ecommerce solution company who have a dedicated team of web designers who have experience in creating compelling designs that act as a sales tool to take into account the goals the website needs to achieve in order to be successful and more importantly profitable - click here to read more
You might have the perfect design to keep your customer on your e commerce website but if you make it hard for them to buy by poor navigation on the site it doesnt matter how perfect your web design is they will simply move on to another site which does make it easy to purchase. Internet shoppers are lazy so help them as much as possible by having as few clicks as possible. Ask your potential ecommerce development company about implementing a single check out page which reduces the number of clicks during the shopping basket process which reduces your abandon rate. If you have 1000s of products your ecommerce web development company should be advising you on the best way to present these products to the customer. Introducing a simple filter module would straight away solve this problem, for example filter, by price, brand, category, age group etc.
There are various types of ecommerce solutions out there on the market. Static off-the shelf e-commerce stores tend to suit smaller budgets. These types of solutions are limited in terms of their flexibility to be customised and nine times out of ten need more involvement to keep updated or to make minor changes such as changing a product image. Basically you get what you pay for. If one of your pains is to streamline productivity then you want to consider a content management system that is database driven to enable you to dynamically make changes and keep content fresh with very little technical involvement. Extensibility is also key, not only should your ecommerce provider be able to provide you a scalable ecommerce solution but one that has the flexibility to grow as your business requirements change. Ideally you want to look at a modular ecommerce solution that allows you to plug in additional functionality with minimum of effort, for example customer loyalty schemes, promo codes, gift vouchers, buy one get one free etc. Taking this even further from a long term investment perspective you should consider how your ecommerce supplier deals with customisation and bespoke development that is specific to your business and your ways of working. In other words, you dont want to invest in an ecommerce solution where you discover later on down the line that the solution does not have the flexibility to customise resulting in having to reinvest in a brand new solution.
When choosing an ecommerce supplier it is important to consider their software coding standards. In others words, have they chosen to go down the free open-source software route or have they chosen to follow a comprehensive programming model such as Microsoft.NET. Open-source certainly provides you with code and full-blown software applications that you can use immediately without having to have a substantial budget. Having said that, the biggest negative is that with open-source you are basically on our own when it comes to support and any form of version control. This is a potetional risk that you need to consider. On the other hand if your ecommerce software provider is using Microsoft technologies then you can be rest assured that the Microsoft.NET framework is a well developed and consistent programming model to allow ecommerce software houses to build applications that are stable, visually stunning from a user perspective and have the ability and robustness to model a wide range of business processes in a controlled manner.
Search engine optimisation is a long term strategy and shouldnt be taken lightly. Stay well clear of ecommerce website companies who claim they can deliver you an ecommerce solution that is fully optimised and will achieve rankings on page one of the three major search engines. Google use more than 200 signals (which includes their page rank algorithm) to digest the whole link structure of your website solution and decide whic website pages are the most relevant. They also carry out an intensive hypertext-matching analysis to decide which pagers are most relevant to a keyword search that has been made by an internet user. So, to make sure your website conforms to these you need to implement a long term strategic search engine optimisation.
When building ecommerce solutions you need to take into consideration the payment gateway that you will choose in order to have the capability to take payments online via your ecommerce store. There are lots of different types of payment gateways out there with many different offerings which can be confusing so it is imperative that you choose an ecommerce company who are experts in this field. The types of questions you need to be thinking about is whether you choose a payment gateway where you will need to have a MID (merchant ID) or use a merchant bureau service where you do not need to apply for a MID via a bank. Do you choose a hosted payment gateway solution where the internet shopper leaves your ecommerce web store to make payment or an inline solution where the internet shopper does not leave your ecommerce shop; a far slicker solution in our opinion. What about the perils of fraudulent transactions? When choosing a payment gateway you need to consider the fraud screening tools and risk management services they offer in order to protect your online business, for example does the payment gateway support the 3D Secure Scheme (chip and pin for the web) that has been created by Visa and MasterCard.
Its all well and good having a fabulous looking and rich in functionality e commerce solution if nobody knows that you are there to purchase your products. As soon as you start thinking about building your ecommerce website you should also be thinking about online marketing at the same time. Devising a web and internet marketing strategy early on is essential. Investigate all of the different types of internet marketing and decide which one/s best fit your online business and set aside a realistic budget. This could be setting up a PPC ad campaign to have an instant presence on the internet or looking at a long term strategy of getting high rankings for certain keywords on the natural listings of the major search engines. Whatever it is dont leave your internet and web marketing strategy to the last minute. Remember the goal of your ecommerce website solution is to be profitable and in order to be profitable your potential customers need to know you are out there.

For Healthcare Professionals
Applies to selegiline: compounding powder, oral capsule, oral tablet, oral tablet disintegrating, transdermal film extended release
The most hazardous consequence of inhibition of MAO A is the potential for hypertensive crises. Such crises may be precipitated by ingestion of foods containing large amounts of exogenous amines (like tyramine) or concomitant use of medications containing indirect or mixed-acting sympathomimetic amines. At the usual therapeutic dose (10 mg per day), inhibition of MAO A generally does not occur and the manufacturer reports that patients may safely take selegiline (the active ingredient contained in Eldepryl) without dietary restrictions. (For a list of foods which contain a large amount of tyramine, please see the "Interactions" section of this program). Patients should be instructed, however, to avoid over-the-counter cold remedies and other preparations which may contain vasoactive amines.
Selegiline is generally well tolerated. At the usual therapeutic dose (10 mg per day), selegiline provides selective inhibition of MAO B. At higher doses, loss of selectivity may occur and patients may be at risk of side effects related to inhibition of MAO A.
Exacerbation of preexisting ulcer disease with severe upper gastrointestinal bleeding has been reported.
Gastrointestinal side effects have been reported the most frequently. These have included constipation, flatulence, anorexia, gastroenteritis, vomiting, increased appetite, thirst, periodontal abscess, eructation, gastritis, colitis, dysphagia, tongue edema, glossitis, increased salivation, melena, tongue disorder, tooth caries. Gastrointestinal neoplasia and rectal hemorrhage have also been reported rarely. Irritation of the buccal mucosa has been reported with the use of the orally disintegrating tablet.
Nervous system
Nervous system side effects have included agitation, paresthesia, thinking abnormal, amnesia, lag cramps, tremor, vertigo, hypertonia, twitching, emotional lability, confusion, manic reaction, depersonalization, hyperkinesias, hostility, myoclonus, circumoral paresthesia, hyperesthesia, increased libido, euphoria, neurosis, paranoid reaction. Ataxia has also been reported rarely. Data from postmarketing spontaneous reporting include a seizure in a dialyzed chronic renal failure patient. A clear causal relationship to selegiline (the active ingredient contained in Eldepryl) was not established.
Patients taking levodopa-carbidopa may experience worsening of side effects attributable to levodopa. Dosage reduction of levodopa-carbidopa may be necessary.
Muscle twitch and myoclonic jerks have been reported at doses greater than 10 mg/day.
Impaired memory, transient high, and increase energy have been reported at doses greater than 10 mg/day.
Psychiatric side effects have included hallucinations, confusion, anxiety, mania, hypomania, psychosis, depression, other mood changes, nightmares, and hypersexuality. Reversible transvestic fetishism has been reported in a 72-year-old man with Parkinson's disease after selegiline 5 mg oral twice daily was added to his therapy for motor fluctuations. After the selegiline was stopped, his urge to wear women's clothing stopped.
Cardiovascular side effects have included hypertension, vasodilation, tachycardia, migraine, syncope, atrial fibrillation, peripheral vascular disorder, and myocardial infarct.
Inhibition of MAO A may cause hypertensive crises if foods containing large amounts of exogenous amines (like tyramine) are consumed. Tyramine-rich foods and beverages should be avoided beginning on the first day of therapy with the transdermal system of selegiline 9 mg/24 hours or 12 mg/24 hours, and should continue to be avoided for two weeks after a dose reduction to 6 mg/24 hours or following the discontinuation of the 9 mg/24 hours or 12 mg/24 hours treatment. Patients receiving the higher doses should follow the recommended "Dietary Modifications Required for Patients Taking EMSAM 9 mg/24 hours and 12 mg/24 hours." If a hypertensive crisis occurs, the drug should be discontinued immediately and therapy to lower blood pressure should be instituted.
Anticholinergic effects have been reported and include dry mouth, blurred vision, urinary retention and constipation.
Hepatic side effects have included transient and persistent abnormalities of liver function tests after chronic administration.
Some investigators have recommended baseline and annual measurements of liver function tests during selegiline therapy. Others have discounted the need for such monitoring.
Dermatologic side effects have included pruritus, sweating, acne, dry skin, maculopapular rash, contact dermatitis, urticaria, herpes simplex, alopecia, vesiculobullous rash, herpes zoster, skin hypertrophy, fungal dermatitis, and skin benign neoplasm. Eczema has also been reported rarely.

Astor Travel Tips
Astor Vacation Rentals Is a Fisherman's Paradise
An Astor vacation rental is your key to a vacation that's filled with things to do in the Central Florida area. Astor is a small fishing town located on beautiful St. John's River. Just minutes from Orlando, Florida, Astor is considered the Bass Capital of the World. Imagine catching your own fish and bringing them home to cook up the freshest dinner around. If fishing isn't your favorite thing to do, you're so close to the Orlando area that in an hour you can find all the entertainment in the world.
Astor Vacation Homes Are Your Home Away from Home
At Astor vacation homes, you can feel like you're right at home. You'll enjoy amenities such as balconies with a view, your own kitchen with items like an ice maker and dishwasher, more than one bedroom, and many other luxuries that anyone will love. Every vacation rental has something different to offer. You'll never want to stay in a motel again after living the good life in an Astor vacation home. Picture yourself enjoying a family dinner around the table or being able to relax on a front porch or balcony after a long day at the lake. You can't get that kind of freedom in a tiny motel room.
Central Florida Waterfront Rentals Have Something for Every Vacationer
Central Florida waterfront rentals are a vacationer's dream. Less than an hour from Orlando and a half hour from Daytona, it doesn't matter what your family likes to do because there is something for everyone to enjoy. Take a day trip to Disney World or SeaWorld or even do both. Universal Studios is fun for the whole family as well. If your family likes to do things that are more nature oriented, St. John's River and Lake George is right at your doorstep for fun such as fishing, kayaking, canoeing, and boating. You can't go wrong with Central Florida waterfront rentals.

Sorry Manta, you're nowhere near close to my record.
See, I didn't think I was, but i just wanted to know should I ever attemopt it.
if it is advantageous to kick someone in the face... kick someone in the face. I don't advocate not being able to kick people in the face
What I like about Kenpo in particular is roughly every technique that involves kicking is to the groin. Those that aren't are to the back of the knee, which generally causes buckling, which is satisfying.
And you should really only go for a kick to the face if you have a good sense of balance in your base leg, and even then, you shouldn'tt unless your opponent's head is in range of your kick. Midgets are good for this.

You may want to practice a bit more, because- oh, irony. Okay.
Really? I always thought being awesome was more of a side gig for you. I dabbled in being awesome for a while, but it wasn't really my thing. Serious face: I don't have much faith in mixed martial arts. If I remember correctly (too lazy to dig through my comments) you (Strop) practice or have practiced a variety of martial arts without really sticking with one. In my experience, this isn't the best route. I haven't done too much research into the subject, though.
I don't aim for the groin, because it won't do much to a seasoned opponent and it's not the most honorable method of pwning newbs. Knees are my preferred targets, but I try not to actually do real harm, so I don't hit them often. But yeah, low kicks are aces.
Also, karate sucks! Try doing a real martial art, like the Viennese Waltz :P
... What? Informing other people that their styles are no good is, like, half the fun. And sense we can't have an AG martial arts who's-the-best smackdown...

I don't call myself a martial-artist. At best I would be a dilettante, since I'm more competent in every other major cultural venue of expression i.e. art, music, writing and dance.
Furthermore most MMA combatants nowadays are masters of two styles only: muay thai and brazilian jiujitsu. The exceptions are former government bodyguards and elite soldiers.
And sense we can't have an AG martial arts who's-the-best smackdown...
You're giving me ideas...
Posted Apr 14, '10 at 10:49pm
Also, a little over one hour until the deadline. Goumas is the only one who hasn't submitted. Therefore if the deadline passes and he still hasn't submitted, I'll have to drop Goumas from the tournament arc, which leaves me with the slightly easier task of having to pick one of you guys to also exclude.
That's what it has come down to now! I'll start posting you feedback once I know exactly what the situation is post-deadline.

This is when I wish there was a personalised time clock for the forums, so I know what time Strop posted that.
Cannot wait! Unless I get dropped, then I'll cry... =P

Superb ragout. I wait adding garlic until the vegetables are translucent, so it does not burn. I add a pinch of nutmeg and heavy cream in the end.
In addition, once mixed with tagliatelle, I add some of the starchy cooking water, butter and olive oil.

Arab States "Unprecedentedly" Withdraw Ambassadors From Qatar After "Stormy" Meeting
Submitted by Tyler Durden on 03/05/2014 - 15:44The UAE, Saudi Arabia and Bahrain said on Wednesday they were withdrawing their ambassadors from Qatar after it had not implemented an agreement among Gulf Arab countries not to interfere in each others' internal affairs. The move, unprecedented in the 30-year history of the Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC), follows the Bahrain state minister for information Samira Rajab saying she has evidence of Qatari media provocation against her country. As Gulf News reports, Qatar has been a maverick in the region, backing Islamist groups in Egypt, Syria and elsewhere in the Middle East that are viewed with suspicion or outright hostility by some fellow GCC members. Not a good sign for the oil-generating center of the world.

How The Empire Might Strike Back
Submitted by Tyler Durden on 03/05/2014 - 14:10Many observers have focused on the relative paucity of the West's diplomatic and military options in Ukraine. Others focus on Russia's sources of leverage: cutting off natural gas to western Ukraine and Europe and/or dumping its reserves of U.S. dollars. All those focusing on the West's lack of leverage are forgetting that the Empire retains multiple way of striking back. For example, bringing the costs of misadventure home to Russia's politically influential 1/10th of 1%.

Chinese "1%" Threaten Lawsuit Against Canada For Shutting Visa-For-Cash Scheme
Submitted by Tyler Durden on 03/05/2014 - 13:34When Canadian authorities scrapped their 'investor visa' scheme a month ago, we warned that the nation was removing a critical pillar of support for its real-estate bubble market. However, with an estimated 45,000 Chinese millionaires still in the queue, the wealthy hoping to get their cash out of China are not happy. As The South China Morning Post reports, a group of wealthy mainlanders has criticized the Canadian government for scrapping its investor visa scheme and are threatening legal action if the decision is not overturned - arguing "we had set aside a lot of money to meet the investment requirements and over the years passed up on many opportunities... A refund of our application fees will not make up for all the preparation put in."

481 Barclays Employees Paid Over 1 Million Pounds In 2013, Increase Of 53 From 2012 Despite Losses, Mass Layoffs
Submitted by Tyler Durden on 03/05/2014 - 12:40It was less than a month ago when Barclays announced it would fire 12,000 workers after posting abysmal earnings with Q4 banking income crashing 37% and overall income sliding 9%. So, one would think, its employees would be punished with lower pay - those that are lucky enough to keep their jobs of course. One would be wrong. Reuters just reported that 481 of Barclays employees were paid 1 million pounds ($1.7 million) or more last year, 53 more than in the year before, and most of them were based in the United States. Barcalys' immutable rationale - fear of losing the traders to a better-paying competitor. Like who - is the Fed hiring again?

Goldman Lowers Its February NFP Forecast To Only 125K
Submitted by Tyler Durden on 03/05/2014 - 11:56Today's economic data has been absolutely abysmal. We know, we know, snow. However, first the atrocious ADP number, and then the abysmal Services ISM employment index plunging at an unseen pace, should give some pause for thought. It appears to have done so with Goldman's chief economist, the same guy who a month ago was expecting 3.0% GDP growth in Q1, and who just cut his February NFP forecast for this Friday from 145K to 125K. To wit: "As a result of the sharp decline in the employment component of the nonmanufacturing index, we have reduced our payrolls forecast to 125k and our private payrolls forecast to 130k"

Russia Proposes Confiscating US, European Assets If Sanctions Adopted
Submitted by Tyler Durden on 03/05/2014 - 11:27Following warnings from US and European nations over economic (and travel) sanctions against Russia, the upper house of Russia's parliament has struck back. As RIA reports, Russia is mulling measures allowing property and assets of European and US companies to be confiscated in the event of sanctions being adopted. Layers are studying the costitutionality of the 'confiscation' but cite Europe's standards (i.e. Cyprus) as precedent. This is further to the threat to "dump US goverment bonds" issued earlier in the week.

Hitchin a Ride ~ Vanity Fare
Vanity Fare (due to the similarity of the novel and magazine title often misspelled Vanity Fair) were a UK pop/rock group formed in 1966, best remembered for their million selling song, "Hitchin' a Ride," which became a worldwide hit in 1970.
School friends Trevor Brice (vocals), Tony Goulden (guitar), Dick Allix (drums) and Tony Jarrett (bass) formed the band in Kent in 1966, originally calling themselves The Avengers. They played local clubs and were spotted by entrepreneur Roger Easterby who became their manager and producer. Having changed the name of the band to Vanity Fare after the novel Vanity Fair by William Makepeace Thackeray, they signed to Page One Records. Vanity Fare achieved a UK hit single with their first release, a cover of "I Live For The Sun" (originally recorded by The Sunrays in 1965) in the summer of 1968. Following two more singles, "Summer Morning" and "Highway Of Dreams," both of which failed to make the UK Singles Chart, they released their biggest UK hit "Early in the Morning". Written by Mike Leander and Eddie Seago, it reached number 8 in that country in August 1969 and number 12 in the US in early 1970.
For their next release "Hitchin' A Ride" they added keyboardist Barry Landemen to the group. "Hitchin' A Ride", written by Peter Callander and Mitch Murray, gave them a second million-selling hit reaching number 5 in the US Billboard Hot 100 and making number 16 in the UK in January 1970.
The hit was preceded by a tour of the United States, following which both Dick Allix and Tony Goulden left the band and were replaced by guitarist and singer Eddie Wheeler and drummer Mark Ellen.
Two more singles followed before the end of 1970; Mike Leander and Eddie Seago's "Come Tomorrow" and Roger Cook and Roger Greenaway's "Carolina's Coming Home" both of which failed to dent the charts on either side of the Atlantic.
Over the next couple of years more singles were released including Tony Macaulay's "Better By Far" in 1972, but none of them entered the charts. Following this they decided to concentrate on live performances touring Europe, where they were having hit singles. Following the mid 1970s, and amid many band member changes (including the departure of Jarrett, replaced by Bernie Hagley), the group recorded only sporadically. In 1986, the band attempted to represent the UK in the Eurovision Song Contest, finishing third in the UK heat of A Song for Europe, with the song "Dreamer" featuring Jimmy Cassidy on vocals, Phil Kitto on keyboards alongside long time members Ellen, Wheeler and Bernie Hagley. In 2007 they toured alongside P. J. Proby.
They are still together today with a line-up of Hagley, Wheeler, Ellen and Steve Oakman.
