I know, the one is the company the other is the product. But they get used synonymously all around, so I'm asking myself if it would be a good idea to set the tags to that relationship? It feels not right has anyone a logic argument to get me settled?
I stumbled over your suggested wiki edit regarding that topic and started my own question, but you were faster ;-) I only heard of Appcelerator from the side, so I can't confirm this directly, but Wikipedia and the Marketing information on their site seem to agree. In my opinion appcelerator should be an alias of titanium. I also found out that there's titanium-mobile with confusingly similar Tag-Wiki context, which leads me to believe that this too should be an alias. |

Whole Wheat Jelly Doughnuts (Sufganiyot)
Author Notes: During Hanukkah it is tradition to serve foods fried in oil, one of those foods has been the jelly doughnut. In an attempt to make them healthier I made them with whole wheat flour and kept them munchkin size for portion control. - Tamar Genger
Serves 6
- 31/4 cups whole wheat flour
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 2/3 cups sugar
- 2 pieces eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla
- 2/3 cups non-dairy milk
- 1/2 cup all fruit preserves
- 1/2 cup oil, divided
- Mix whole wheat flour, baking powder, cinnamon, salt, nutmeg and sugar in a large bowl. Stir eggs, vanilla, milk and ¼ cup oil in a separate bowl.
- Add wet ingredients to dry ingredients and mix to combine. Knead dough for a few minutes. Take about 2 tablespoons of the dough and roll into a small ball, flatten in your hand and spoon in a drop of jelly.
- Fold up the dough to cover the jelly and maintain the round shape. Makes about 24.
- Heat oil over high heat, once hot add doughnut and roll around in the oil until all sides are golden browned. Watch it closely, it can burn easily. Remove from heat and allow to drain on paper towels. Before serving, heat in hot oven for 5 minutes.

PGA Tour on CBS is a television program produced by CBS Sports[1][2] that broadcasts the main professional golf tours in the United States.
Coverage overview[edit]
In January 2006, the PGA Tour announced a new set of television deals covering 2007 to 2012. CBS Sports will remain the main carrier of PGA Tour golf (which has been the case since 1970), and would increase its events from 16 to 19 per season.[3] CBS also holds broadcast television rights to the two of the four majors, The Masters and PGA Championship. CBS has long-term deals for the PGA Championship[4] (initially from 1958-1964[5] and again starting in 1991). Meanwhile, the Masters operates under one-year contracts; CBS has been the main TV partner every year since 1956.[6]
Frank Chirkinian was known as the 'father of televised golf' for the impact he had on golf broadcasting. He came to the attention of CBS after he impressed with his direction of the 1958 PGA Championship. Recruited by the network, who had no one with expertise in the relatively new field of golf broadcasting, he went on to be executive producer of CBS's golf coverage from 1959 until 1996.[7][8] During his time at CBS, he was nicknamed 'The Ayatollah' for his brusque, uncompromising approach to directing broadcasts.[9] Chirkinian was particularly well regarded for the coverage of the Masters Tournament that he oversaw for four decades, working closely with the management of Augusta National to ensure they were satisfied.[10] Following his retirement, he remained a consultant to CBS for golf coverage.
Chirkinian was responsible for a number of innovations in the television presentation of golf. He ensured as many microphones as possible were placed around the golf course to pick up the sounds of the tournament and golfers' conversations, rather than having commentators talk over silent footage. He showed as many golf shots as possible, cutting quickly from player to player to keep up the pace of the broadcast, unafraid of focusing on the game's stars. The use of multiple cameras was introduced during Chirkinian's tenure, including high-angle cameras mounted in trees and on blimps for the first time. Chirkinian said that he was most proud of being the first to display golfers' scores relative to par, rather than cumulatively, making it simpler to work out how they were faring relative to the rest of the field. Most of all, Chirkinian thought it important to allow coverage to focus on golfers and the shots they made, and was critical of recent innovations in golf broadcasting that he saw as distracting and unnecessary.
Since 2004, most of CBS's golf broadcasts have featured super slow motion video of golfers' shots from the "Konica Minolta SwingVision" camera.[11] The camera is actually provided by Tech Imaging Services,[12] not Konica Minolta, which merely sponsors the feature to promote its Bizhub line of printers. (Konica Minolta was previously well known as a still-image camera manufacturer but sold that product line to Sony in 2006.)[13]
The Masters[edit]
As previously mentioned, CBS has televised the Masters in the United States every year since 1956,[14][15] when it used six cameras and covered only the final four holes. Tournament coverage of the first 8 holes did not begin until 1993 because of resistance from the tournament organizers, but by 2006, over 50 cameras were used. USA Network added first- and second-round coverage in 1982, which was also produced by the CBS production team. Ironically, USA is now co-owned with CBS rival NBC.
In 2005, CBS broadcast the tournament with high-definition fixed and handheld wired cameras, as well as standard-definition wireless handheld cameras. In 2007, CBS added "Masters Extra," an hour's extra full-field bonus coverage daily on the internet, preceding the television broadcasts. In 2008, CBS added full coverage of holes 15 and 16 live on the web.
While Augusta National Golf Club has consistently chosen CBS as its U.S. broadcast partner, it has done so on successive one-year contracts.[16] Due to the lack of long-term contractual security, as well as the club's limited dependence on broadcast rights fees (owing to its affluent membership), it is widely held that CBS allows Augusta National greater control over the content of the broadcast, or at least perform some form of self-censorship, in order to maintain future rights. The club, however, has insisted it does not make any demands with respect to the content of the broadcast.[17][18]
There are some controversial aspects to this relationship. Announcers refer to the gallery as "patrons" rather than spectators or fans (gallery itself is also used), and use the term "second cut" instead of "rough" (however, the second cut is normally substantially shorter than comparable "primary rough" at other courses).[17] Announcers who have been deemed not to have acted with the decorum expected by the club have been removed, notably Jack Whitaker and analyst Gary McCord.[17] There also tends to be a lack of discussion of any controversy involving Augusta National, such as the 2003 Martha Burk protests.[18] However, there have not been many other major issues in recent years.
Restrictions placed on CBS[edit]
The club mandates minimal commercial interruption, currently limited to four minutes per hour (as opposed to the usual 12 or more); this is subsidized by selling exclusive sponsorship packages to three companies.[16] In the immediate aftermath of the Martha Burk controversy, there were no commercials during the 2003 and 2004 broadcasts,[17] although international commercial broadcasters continued to insert their own commercials into the coverage. The Players Championship began imposing the same rule in 2007 and some of the other major championships have tried to follow suit in their most recent TV contracts.
The club also disallows promotions for other network programs, with the sole exception of an on-screen mention of 60 Minutes should the final round run long, or right before the coverage ends.[16] Other broadcast material not allowed include sponsored graphics, blimps and on-course announcers.[16] There is also typically no cut-in for other news and sports, either from CBS or its affiliates. CBS uses "Augusta" by Dave Loggins as the event telecast's distinctive theme music.
Augusta National has placed significant restrictions on the tournament's broadcast hours compared to other major championships, perhaps to increase the tournament's Nielsen ratings, or to reward ticket-holders. Only in the 21st century did the tournament allow CBS to air 18-hole coverage of the leaders, a standard at the other three majors.[17] Only three hours of cable coverage is scheduled for the early rounds each day. International broadcasters do not receive additional coverage, although they may take commercial breaks at different times from CBS or ESPN. As noted before, an additional hour of coverage each day is streamed online.[16]

- The Barclays (Playoffs) - Since the move to late August, the Barclays has traditionally closed CBS Sports' PGA Tour television schedule, due to the network's commitment to airing SEC College and NFL football, as well as the U.S. Open tennis tournament, during the fall months. Jim Nantz, who calls the final two rounds of the Barclays on television, is also (since 2004) CBS' lead NFL football announcer.

Not all the country saw the final round live, as CBS' commitment to the NFL only allowed part of the country to see the round as it takes place, with the rest of the U.S. seeing the event beginning at 4 p.m. Eastern Time. In 2007, the event was moved to December, and was broadcast live by both Golf Channel and NBC.

Theme music[edit]
CBS' PGA coverage has used several different pieces of music throughout its history. Since the mid-2000s, a Yanni composition, "Fanfare", has been the theme song. Past theme songs have included "Take It From The Top" by Earl Klugh (mid-1980s) and "St. Ives Theme" by Lalo Schifrin (late 1970s-early 1980s). As with the Masters Tournament (see above), the PGA Championship uses its own distinct theme music, which has included "The Gift" by David Barrett and "Burlingame" by E.S. Posthumus.[19]

Free Promotional Snacks for Wimpy Kids and Non-Wimpy Kids Alike
Posted on August 13th, 2010
The Diary of a Wimpy Kid books and movie (with a sequel tentatively scheduled to hit theaters in March 2011) have experienced a swift journey to success. The wildly successful book series earned author Jeff Kinney a 74 week stint on the New York Times Best Seller list for children's books, as audiences couldn't help but fall in love with the books' relatable protagonist, middle school student Greg Heffley. To generate buzz for the release of the fifth installment in the Wimpy Kid series, publisher Amulet Books, a division of Abrams, is launching a cross-country ice-treat truck bookstore tour. A grand total of 26,000 promotional snacks and 26,000 books are involved with the execution of this nationwide campaign!*
*Please note: I heard about this event after this week's Weekend Guide had been posted, but at noon tomorrow (Saturday, August 14th), one of two Diary of a Wimpy Kid tour buses begins its two week run with an appearance at Little Shop of Stories in Decatur.
Keep reading for more information about the tour and participating bookstores…

Big Picture
The semi-finalists from Group A will only be decided after the match between Delhi Daredevils and Titans in case Auckland Aces beat Perth Scorchers in the preceding match. If Perth beat Auckland in the first match, both Titans and Daredevils will be through and the result of second match will only decide who they will play in the semi-finals.
A win for Auckland, however, will put them level with Daredevils on 10 points, and ahead of the Titans who are on eight. If Daredevils win, they will be through to the knockouts along with Auckland. If Titans win, they will finish at the top of the table and the second team will be decided based on the net run rate.
Daredevils will be confident after their hard-fought three-wicket win over Perth in their previous game. They were efficient in their other victory - against Kolkata Knight Riders - but had to sit out eight days between the two wins as the game against Auckland was abandoned.
The Titans had a horrible evening against Knight Riders in their last game when they were bowled out for 89 runs. It was a wake-up call, according to opener Henry Davids, but the timing of the thrashing is worrying. In the previous two games they had much better outings, with comfortable wins against Perth and Auckland.
Watch out for…
For a player whose participation for the Delhi has generated so much interest and divided opinions, Kevin Pietersen has had a quiet campaign so far. He got off to a slow start against Kolkata and fell trying to force the pace. Left-arm spin took care of him in the last game, Michael Beer taking full advantage of his unnecessary aggression. With a place in the semifinal on the line, Pietersen is the best person to expect a big performance from.
Titans however will hope to bring in Roelof van der Merwe the moment Pietersen walks in, not merely because he's a left-arm spinner but because he has bowled three good spells. Van der Merwe is one of the eight bowlers in the tournament who have an economy rate below the five-run mark and the only one among the Titans. He would want to improve on the four wickets, though, and a certain wicket would definitely encourage van der Merwe.
"(The win over the Perth Scorchers) was too close for comfort. We'd have liked to win more easily than this but a win is still a win. We've got to make sure we keep going well and one IPL team goes the distance in the tournament."
Delhi Daredevils all-rounder Irfan Pathan
"This team was due for a bad game and luckily we've got it now. We've got one more game in which we must raise our game some notches higher and play to our potential."
Titans opener Henry Davids

Thanks for this. I bought one of these recently and am still in the 'price match' period. If you see anything else on this or the DLE2050W, please post. |

Why do you want these Korean made pieces of junk? Wait until you get holes in your paper thin dryer drum where it rides on the drum rollers and you need a $400.00 repair. ____________________ Scott Wolf |

Samurai Appliance Repair Man Fermented Grand Master of Appliantology
At the ASTI conference, I attended training on LG washers and refrigerators. The instructor was a dude named John out of Alabama. He was, hands-down, the best instructor there; kinda reminded me of one of my electronics instructors in the Navy: smart, funny, and knew his stuff cold. Anyway, these LG machines ain't that bad once you get to know 'em. They have their quirks and, yes, they have their weak points like all machines. But John emphasized two things that you gotta do as a service tech on these machines: you gotta use the diagnostic mode and you absotootly have to be able to read a wiring diagram. You can test every component on that washer from the main control board. Cool thing about these machines is they have no belt: it's a magnetic drive directly mounted on the drum like on the Fisher Paykel washers. ____________________ To ask a question, use our new forums==> http://appliantology.org 365-Day No-Hassle Return Policy on all parts purchased through this site, even electrical parts that have been installed! |

If anyone has links for service manuals for the WM2050CW or the DLE2050CW that would be great. They are new and not on the Lgservice site but having them handy would be nice. |

While it may be obvious to most of us that this is juvenile---servicers that eloquently trash-talk brands or models of appliances WITHOUT getting into specifics---other than it's "Made In Korea! For Christ Sakes!" " I wouldn't use one those if my own mother held a gun to my head!" Usually have zippo knowledge of the brand or it's products. V-e-r-y unprofessional. This does NOT endear other professionals to be associated with *you*. Then again, maybe that doesn't matter to this "caliber" of service tech to begin with... Consumers would prefer a technician that calmly & logically explains/describes any and all shortcomings about a specific appliance. Picture NASA rocket engineers talking 9th grade level expletives deleted during the early 60s--after numerous failed launches trying to get the reliability of the engines. Granted--privately, they cussed & cursed. Even then it was more at THEMSELVES for failing rather than any particular partner in the program (GE / Morton-Thiokol / General Dynamics / Raytheon / etc). Grow up. Be Professional. Last edited on Sat Jul 10th, 2010 06:44 am by john63 |

I have plenty knowledge of my appliances, including all the foreign brands. I am just sick of my customers complaining "It's only a year old, it should not need a $400 repair already!" I'm also sick of the stores pushing this junk. As an ex auto assembly plant worker, I'm sick of imports period. When you have your job eliminated because everybody keeps buying imports, you'll understand. Out of work? Keep buying imports! ____________________ Scott Wolf |

I am just sick of my customers complaining "It's only a year old, it should not need a $400 repair already!" ****************************** That's inaccurate Scott---and you know it. A statement like that implies to readers of this forum that WHIRLPOOL / GE / MAYTAG and any other American built or owned brand does NOT fail within 5 years. ****************************** I'm also sick of the stores pushing this junk. ****************************** Retailers sell what consumers WANT. This is supply & demand. Basic economics. ****************************** As an ex auto assembly plant worker, I'm sick of imports period. When you have your job eliminated because everybody keeps buying imports, you'll understand. Out of work? Keep buying imports! This can be quantified as a "tell". It gives the appearance that your real ulterior- motive is due to the loss of a job on the assembly line and NOT from any real tangible flaw or fault in an imported brand of appliance.

8 out of 10 of my customers swear that they never will buy an LG appliance again, especially refrigerators. Alot of it has to do with LG's unwillingness to distribute parts to the local parts houses. Ok, picture this, I had a customer with a Kenmore refrigerator, built by LG. Christmas week, the control board on the fridge blows the relay for the compressor, I try to order the control board next day air from Sears, they say the best they can do is ship it to me 2 days after Christmas. LG themselves was out of the control board as it was on factory backorder. HELLO? this is the customers only refrigerator and they NEED the refrigerator FOR Christmas because they are having Christmas at their house! Customer decides to ditch her 3 year old LG refrigerator that she paid $900 for and buys a Whirlpool refrigerator and makes sure she takes out the extended warranty as she swears she will never buy an LG product again. ____________________ Scott Wolf |

Nobody seems to understand, it matters where the profits go, not where it's made or assembled. If you love giving your money away to foreign countries, keep buying imports and then you can cry about your Toyota having 5 recalls and wonder why the economy still sucks in the USA. ____________________ Scott Wolf |

That's the *customer's* perogative. That--I can understand. Your position--less so. Again--this IMPLIES that on Christmas Eve/Christmas Day/NewYears Eve/Easter/Memorial Day/Labor Day/Thanksgiving/etc Only LG (or imported) brand appliances fail on these holidays and that parts took two days to order. This is dishonest and false. 8 out of 10 of my customers swear that they never will buy an LG appliance again, especially refrigerators. Most of the consumers that I interact with are intially dissatisfied that service was required on their LG refrigerator. *My job* is to resolve their problem quickly & efficiently. Answer any/all concerns that they have. In the end--they're happy to be back in business and content that they've just made aquaintance with a servicer that KNOWS his job. This is part of being a good service technician. Judging from my posts on this forum---I think it is safe to say that if there are any issues with the LG products---I try to be as forthright as possible about it and offer SOLUTIONS. Most readers of this forum and customers at-large very much appreciate when a servicer is candid (and professional about it). It takes NO skill to bash/smash *any* brand or type of appliance on this forum. Anyone can do it--it's that easy. No training required. |

soo.. it doesn't matter who physically builds it, or how it's built or assembled ... or where the assembly line is located.. or where the parts are made .. soo.. if I worked on the assembly line for GM, but they closed my plant and moved the line to Mexico, then that's OK .. and people should still buy those vehicles from GM because they make the money, although I'm out of a job.

I'm done with this thread. Again, you've both missed my point. I'll stop my bashing, I will just post my customers quotes from now on. I had a job interview with LG last year. One of the questions I asked in the interview is when they plan to start distributing their parts to the local parts houses. He replied "Why would we do that?" Have you ever worked on an LG dishwasher? I had to replace a complete wiring harness, a door liner, pump and motor assembly AND a control board on an LG dishwasher. LG sent the parts to the customer for free and LG paid us a mere $125 to do the repair. This job is at least a $300 repair. Tell me how you like working on one of these after you've worked on one. End of discussion. Period. ____________________ Scott Wolf |

Balsamic Glazed Vegetables
Picky eaters beware, everyone raves about these veggies!
by Rachael Ray | on 01/30/12
Photo credit: Lisbeth Axell
- 1 1/2-2 pounds of your choice of the following, or any combination of, "baby" packaged fresh carrots, brussel sprouts or yellow squash (you can also use broccoli, cauliflower and zucchini)
- 1/2 cup water
- 1/2 cup balsamic vinegar
- 1 tablespoon butter
- Salt and freshly ground black pepper
- Chopped parsley leaves, for garnish
Serves 4-6
Place the veggies in a pan with water and vinegar. Bring to a boil and cover. Reduce the heat to medium and cook for 10 minutes. Remove the lid and raise the heat back up. Allow the water to boil away and the vinegar to reduce and glaze the veggies, about 5-7 minutes. When the vegetables are glazed, to a sweet, rich brown color, add butter to the pan. Turn the veggies to coat lightly with butter. Season with salt and pepper and serve. Garnish with parsley.

Ooohhh, decisions, decisions. It's a close call between @nephilim and @alexsanger. Err...ummm.. Hang on, I'll get a coin.
Couldn't find a coin so I used a MicroSD adapter. My vote goes to.......
@nephilim +1
Conspiracy theory: Is it really hallb15 or is it HAL900? Go on, say 'I'm sorry Dave. I'm afraid I can't do that.'
After listening to them all, I'll step up and go with @nephilim +1. The best sounding out of all of them.

Nephilim for the win, of course mine was better but i decided it would be unfair to enter as none of you would have stood a chance

Is this a conspiracy to send me sweets whilst I am dieting? lol
I can donate the mouse or VPC Shirt to you if you let me have the sweets ?
I haven't had a chance to listen to @nephilim's recording ( will do later ) but I will vote for him

How many manmade buildings can you think of that have survived for more than 2,500 years? The Great Wall of China is impressive for many reasons, but top on that list has to be its longevity—some sections date as far back as the seventh century BC, so long ago that a major reconstruction was needed by the time the Ming dynasty rolled around in 1368 AD. Today, much of the wall stands as always has. It courses east to west across the green mountains and running rivers of northern China for some 5,500 miles. You'll see the monumental Great Wall on Nexus Holidays Toronto's 10-day guided tour of China, and it's just one small part of the tour, which stops in five cities and includes round-trip airfare.Click here for a sample itinerary of the trip. Click here for a list of departure dates.Days 1–4: After departing from a gateway city on the West Coast of America on an economy-class flight, you'll touch down in Beijing. Once on the ground, say nǐ hǎo to your English-speaking tour guide before transferring to the regal Jade Palace Hotel, which is situated in Zhongguancun, known as the "Silicon Valley of China." The next three days are jam-packed with sightseeing excursions: you'll see Tiananmen Square, the Forbidden City, and the Temple of Heaven, another relic from the Ming dynasty. A trip to the Great Wall is the highlight of day 4; your tour group will also spend some time checking out the Olympic Village, which includes Bird's Nest stadium and Water Cube.Days 5–6: The trip moves on to Hangzhou, a city known to Chinese poets as "Paradise on Earth." You'll cruise West Lake, renowned for its natural scenery and ancient pagodas, before taking in the pleasant sights and smells of a green-tea plantation. The 3,000-year-old city of Wuxi is your destination on the next day, where you'll pay a visit to the Grand Buddha at Ling Shan. This iconic statue stands 88 meters high and weighs more than 700 tons, which puts it on the shortlist as one of the largest Buddha sculptures in the world and, whenever anyone places a magazine under it, the world's largest paperweight. Days 7–10: The last days of the trip are split between the city of Suzhou and metropolitan Shanghai. Suzhou is known as the "Venice of the East" for its 1,500-year-old Grand Canal and interlocking waterways. While here, you'll take a stroll through the Master of the Nets Garden, a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Designed to evoke the peaceful, simple life of a fisherman, it's a meticulous display of unique water features and nature scenes.Your tour of Shanghai begins with a trip to the Bund, a waterfront district lined with shops and varied architecture influenced by former European occupiers; its building styles range from Romanesque to Gothic to Beaux-Arts. Later, you'll enjoy more than 120,000 curated treasures on display at the Shanghai Museum. Following breakfast on day 10, you'll depart Shanghai for your return flight home. Read the Fine Print for important info on travel dates and other restrictions.

The Center has welcomed kids onto its farm since 1936. It probably wasn't as much of a novelty back then, when Illinois was home to more than 220,000 farms and the U.S. government issued everyone a farmer's hat at birth. But that number has decreased steadily with each decade, dropping to just 76,000 by 2010, per the USDA. Which means that today, The Children's Farm at The Center gives kids and their families something increasingly special: the chance to experience life on an independent rural farm. Here, chickens lay eggs, goats give milk, and horses eat hay harvested right on the farm. The staff also leads tours of these grounds and explains how each animal fits into farm life. They even let kids pet some of the livestock before finishing up tours with a hayride.
For a completely immersive experience, The Children's Farm hosts summer camps for ages 3–17. During each camp session, campers live on the farm for days or weeks at a time, spending their days riding horses and caring for the animals.

Violet: School lessons that shouldn't be learned
I have no problem with anyone making a strong case for his point of view. As the old adage says, however, your right to make a fist ends where my nose begins. Far too often, among the most educated people in this state, this fine line is violated. Here are examples: • North Kingstown school […]

Pecota's weighted mean isn't terribly concerned for papi, but there is over a 50% chance that he's worth less than 2 warp, and has under 20 vorp. As for now, he's matching that pathway better. That's a not what the sox need. I see them trading for gonzo.
Is Week W-L supposed to be 'projected W-L' or 'Last Year W-L' or something like that?
It's gotta be projected. The Yankees won 103 games last year, not 91. I know PECOTA projected them to finish third. Red Sox - 95 wins, Rays - 92, Yankees - 91. Yup, those are the projected standings.
Yes. This time it's projected - didn't bother to change the template and risk messing things up across the whole series. Starting next week it will be the actual week record.
Why are we still quoting Brandon Wood's career numbers when we're all painfully aware of the extremely sporadic playing time it has been accrued in? Can't we just look at his actually numbers of this season to decide whether there's progress being made?
Does 3-for-30 with one walk and 10 strikeouts sound like progress is being made? It's early, sure, but from here it certainly looks to be of a piece with his previous major league work. I do hope he gets it sorted out, but with the Angels struggling and Maicer Izturis scrambling for at-bats, I'm not sure Wood will get the benefit of having a significant sample size to put it all together.
pecota heavily discounts some of the yankees veterans' performances. age may yet catch up with them, but without a physical report on their declining athletic abilities i'm not really comfortable projecting aging decline based on historical trends alone. history doesn't have the same technology.
Agree. The Yankees is still a 100-win club in 2010... Very likely not the case in 2011 though. Age just needs to catch up to Posada at the very least...

Last night's 55th annual Grammy Awards was truly a night to remember, but here are our two favorite moments of the night.
Rihanna showed up in a stunning bold red gown by Azzedine Alaia. We can't get enough of the color and the amazing train on the dress. Not to mention her gorgeous her ombré hair!
Justin Timberlake, who hasn't released an album in seven years, gave a showstopping performance of his new single "Suit and Tie" with Jay-Z. JT looked as classy as ever! After the Grammy Awards performance, JT gave a post-Grammy at a sold out concert at the Palladium AND released a new track, Mirrors, from his new album "The 20/20 Project," which is set to release on March 19. We cannot wait to hear the rest of the album!

We all love a good CSA. There's nothing like a box of lovingly, locally grown fruits and veggies to kick off a week (or two) of good eating. Of course, it'd be awfully nice if we all had green thumbs and could grow our own food in our own yards, but a couple of things tend to stop us: No yard, no time, and/or no green thumb.
If you don't have a yard, you're back to the supermarket or the joys of the CSA. Otherwise, there is an in-between option: If you do have a yard but aren't likely to use it to grow food, you're what farm yard CSAers might call an opportunity.
The rain stopped falling long enough Thursday afternoon for Sharon Leopardi to pull a few weeds from her backyard garden.
It's not actually her backyard. And it's not her only garden.
In this particular backyard on Logan Avenue, the 24-year-old is growing radishes, carrots and spinach. Elsewhere in her collection of backyard gardens around the city, Leopardi grows beets, onions, squash and 40 varieties of tomatoes.
It seems like such a reasonable idea:
Leopardi is in Salt Lake City. Here in Denver, another industrious urban farmer/forager runs a yard CSA:
[O]verhead can be significantly lower in neighborhood CSAs that do not have to lease land and equipment. Fossil-fuel consumption for Farm Yard is pretty low too, but not zero, says Debbie. "I had this friend build me a really special bike trailer, but it's almost impossible to move this much produce on a bike," she laments, gesturing to the truckload of squash we'd harvested before the apples. On this day, having been to three gardens in her Ford truck and filled it up twice, I could see there was no way to do this on a bike. Still, this produce is darned local, and the carbon footprint of the CSA is about as small as you can get outside of growing your food in your own garden, which is how Farm Yard started.
Sounds delicious. The concept exists elsewhere, as well. These folks in Arizona are on it. Long Island, too. There are plenty of reasons to be excited about urban farming—and this is an exciting variety. Do you know of folks in your neck of the woods with CSAs like this? Let us know.

I'm looking forward to turning our front yard into a garden. Would love to share and barter with other neighbors. Looking forward to spring.
Makes so much sense! In my neighborhood, many people have front yard gardens. The past year a handful of us have figured out what we are really good at growing - and share. I know tomatoes grow well across the street, and my front yard is perfect for leafy greens. We are hoping to add more folks as the concept grows and sell extra produce once a week at the local neighborhood market.
Yes! I love this concept. Next Door Organics (http://www.nextdoorganics.com/) finds under-used plots in the neighborhood (urban and suburban), farms them organically and sustainably, and sells the produce as locally as possible via a CSA. If you donate a piece of land, you automatically receive a CSA box. It's a great idea. I wish we had something like this in LA.

The inspiration for Pizzeria Prima Strada stems from a passion for the authentic, fire-roasted pizzas born in Naples and found throughout Italy. For a century and a half, the pizza makers of Naples (or "pizzaioli" as they are known in their home town) have been producing unique mouth-watering pizzas using the freshest ingredients available. It is estimated nearly 7 million of these pizzas are produced in Italy every day.
Like the best neighborhood restaurants you'll find worldwide, Pizzeria Prima Strada is a labor of love. We felt what was missing in Victoria's culinary scene was a neighborhood pizzeria. A place you can walk to with your family and friends and have a great food experience. We wanted to create a warm, inviting environment where you can see your food being made and enjoy our version of a taste of Italy.
What is Neapolitan Pizza?
Neapolitan pizza captures the pure essence of simple and delicious Italian food. Pizzeria Prima Strada practices the traditional techniques of the masters by using Caputo 00 flour, Italian plum tomatoes and local ingredients, including Mozzarella di Bufala from Fairburn Farm on Vancouver Island. When cooked, Neapolitan pizza should be crispy, tender and fragrant.

The new Likud
By JPOST EDITORIAL
11/28/2012 21:07
The rule of the majority is just one aspect of a healthy democracy. Careful protection of minority rights, freedom of expression for all and a strong, independent judiciary are no less important.
Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu

The Knesset list chosen by Likud party members this week was clearly more hawkish and right-wing then the previous Likud line-up. Veteran politicians that represented the more liberal stream in the party such as Minister-without-Portfolio Bennie Begin, Deputy Prime Minister Dan Meridor and Minister- without-Portfolio Michael Eitan were ejected from realistic spots on the list.
Likud's shift to the Right appears to be a reflection of a larger trend within Israeli society. While the party undoubtedly represents opinions more right-wing than what can be considered "centrist" in Israeli society, the Likud – after its merger with Yisrael Beytenu – stands to be by far the most popular and, therefore, largest political party in the next Knesset. And the Likud will most likely lead the next government coalition supported by smaller right-wing parties.
Most – if not all – public opinion polls conducted in recent months show that a right-wing coalition will once again lead Israel after the January 22 elections.
Population trends are part of the reason for Israeli society's gradual but steady move to the Right in recent years. The haredi (ultra-Orthodox) population – which tends to be hawkish on security and diplomatic issues – is growing fast. And as rabbinic leadership becomes more fractured – particularly after the death of Rabbi Shalom Yosef Elyashiv – we might be seeing increasing numbers of haredim voting for non-haredi political parties. Religious Zionists are another segment of the population with a high birth rate.
In addition, some three-quarters of about one million immigrants from the Former Soviet Union who have arrived in Israel since the late 1980s voted for either the Likud or Yisrael Beytenu in recent elections.
These immigrants combine an aversion to left-wing economics with a cultural affinity for ethnic nationalism.
The success of the Right also has to do with its ability to adopt pragmatic diplomatic positions first proposed by the Left – such as the two-state-solution – while at the same time succeeding much better than the Left at adhering unabashedly to the sorts of ideals shared by the vast majority of Israelis: That exclusively Jewish immigration should be encouraged; that the Jewish people's historical homeland is rightfully in the biblical land of Israel; that uniquely Jewish culture and tradition should be nurtured; that maintaining political self-determination backed up by a strong military capability will help ensure Jewish continuity in the face of anti-Semitism and the threat of assimilation.
But while the Likud's move to the Right is a democratic reflection of the will of a majority of Israelis, we must be wary of undermining other aspects of Israel's democratic character. Some of the more right-wing legislators in Likud and Yisrael Beytenu have proposed – and in some cases passed – controversial legislation which we at
The Jerusalem Post
have opposed.
One example was a bill that, if passed, would have taken away the Supreme Court's veto over justice appointments and transferred full responsibility to the Knesset.
Thankfully, Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu, backed by Begin, Meridor and Eitan, torpedoed the measure, which would have weakened the court's autonomy and its ability to protect minority rights and freedom of expression.
Another example was legislation passed by the Knesset in July 2011 that gives individuals, institutions, and businesses in Israel standing to sue those who implement or even advocate anti-Israel boycotts.
Because it specifically singles out as illicit any boycott aimed at those with an "affinity with the State of Israel," the law is unabashedly ideological and intended to punish only one way of thinking in Israel.
The right-wing coalitions that have dominated Israeli politics in recent years – and which will probably continue to do so – are undoubtedly a reflection of the will of the people.
But we must be careful of a situation in which there is a "tyranny of the majority." The rule of the majority is just one aspect of a healthy democracy.
Careful protection of minority rights, freedom of expression for all and a strong, independent judiciary are no less important.

"Easily edited for personalization. We had used the same design for shower invitations so the theme was carried out, but they could certainly stand on their own."
"I ordered this for myself, and I really love this style's simplicity. I placed a beautiful scenic vacation picture at the back and the quality of the photo was great. It made the notecard more personal. The paper is thick enough and very easy to write on. On a side note, I ordered this note card alongside another note card from a cheaper company, and with the slight price difference, I would go with Tinymprints anyday! You can really tell the difference between the two with the paper quality, print quality and even envelope quality! Kudos To Tinyprints!"
"i ordered the coordinating invitations for my sister's baby shower, so getting the thank you notes was a no brainer. they are so adorable! like the invitations, they are modern, whimsical, fun, and fit my sister's personality. the weight of the paper is heavy and the print quality is superb. i opted to personalize the envelopes, too. one less thing she will have to worry about! delivery was quicker than expected."
"We used a script on the front and asked them to make it as big as possible and that worked - if we would have went with default it would have been too small. We put 3 pictures on back and they are small, so good for portraits but not full body pics. Also font on back very small so realize this is a small card and you need big lettering to be readable."
"Since we have a yellow lab and an almost one-year-old little boy, this was the perfect stationary for him! Great quality, got a great deal, and fast shipment! So pleased!"

At Ridge we begin with respect for the natural process that transforms fresh grapes into wine, and for the 19th century model of guiding that process with minimal intervention. When you have great vineyards that produce high-quality grapes of distinct, individual character, this approach is not only environmentally and socially responsible, it's also the best way to consistently make fine wine.
The Roudon-Smith Winery is dedicated to the production of exceptional wines from selected vineyards of the Santa Cruz Mountains and other regions of California. Traditional winemaking methods result in elegant, long-lived wines, which are the perfect complement to any meal. At Roudon-Smith Winery, we specialize in the making of fine wines as well as the enjoyment of taking on new challenges. Every year, we search for the most remarkable fruit available. Then with a minimal intervention approach to winemaking, we aim to preserve this quality as the grapes evolve to wine. Though small, we are growing our production as we find additional exceptional grape sources that we can turn into high quality wines.
Escape 4 times a year to the Santa Cruz Mountains wine region and enjoy exceptional wines from legendary winemakers!

DeJuan Blair the baseball pitcher?
San Antonio Spurs' forward, DeJuan Blair proved to every NBA team that passed on drafting him during the 2009 NBA Draft that he does have what it takes to make it in the NBA despite the lack of ACLs.
But can Blair prove to the MLB he can "bring the heat" on the pitching mound?
This Wednesday, Blair will be throwing out the first pitch for the MLB's Pittsburgh Pirates:
Former University of Pittsburgh basketball player DeJuan Blair will throw out Wednesday's ceremonial first pitch at PNC Park.
Good luck Blair. Just make sure to take it easy. No need for any freak accidents on the pitching mound. Did I just jinx him?

Is it the best seat in the house?
You get an amazing view, it's a completely unobstructed view of the action and you get a brilliant tactical overview of what's going on in the match. It's totally different if, at other matches, you're commentating from the press seats, where you're much lower down. It's totally different up there in the TV gantry and you see so much more of what's going on. That's why Paddy reckons he is the best player every game. You can see everything that's happening, you see the perfect pass and you never make a mistake. It's a great place to watch the game.
What's it like if United score - do you feel the stadium shake?
If we score in one of the big games, against Liverpool or Manchester City, then it may not actually be rocking up there but you can certainly feel it. Nobody is jumping up and down up there, but you look around and see everyone going mad in the stands and you really get a sense of the atmosphere, especially in the big games. It's amazing really.
Which is your favourite United game that you've covered?
I remember when we scored eight against Arsenal and I remember thinking that I couldn't quite compute what was going on. It's one of those results that you think, 'Wow, this is going to be remembered for a long time'. But I think the game that sums United up this season is the 4-3 win over Newcastle on Boxing Day. We went behind three times and ended up coming back to win the game right at the end. It was typical United and a joy to commentate on.
In the press box and commentary positions, the etiquette is to behave in an impartial way. How do you make sure you adhere to that?
