I'm a people person and I've got a good sense of humor. I enjoy a good laugh and I have a quick wit. I believe in honor, commitment, integrity and trust. I like to believe the best about people. I love the smell of freshly sawn wood.
I've been happily married since 1982 and my wife and I have two adult kids. We are now raising her deceased sister's two boys that are 12 & 16. Neither of which has any interest in tools or woodworking.
I've liked wood and pounding nails since I was a little kid. I took every shop class in high school and I built some pretty decent furniture. After High School I was too busy to think about woodworking. Fast forward thirty years and here we are. I've been working for 25 years in our family business, which has nothing to do with wood or woodworking. I'm a desk jockey by day and by night I like to read and shop for tools for my workshop.
I've always been a DIY guy. I like to tinker around and fix stuff. From carpentry to electrical, masonry to pluming I've done a little of it and I've probably got a tool for it, if I can find it. I've had a "workshop" in the basement since we built this house 15 years ago. I have a set of stairs from the garage straight into my workshop. I use the term workshop loosely as I'm not sure most would call a row of cabinets with a cheap counter top, a couple of peg boards and some metal shelving a workshop.
For more than twenty years I've had an assortment of hand tools, power tools, a Craftsman radial arm saw, a Craftsman 4" jointer and an old Rockwell table saw that I bought at a garage sale. It does a nice job if you spend five minutes setting the fence.
Two years ago I decided if I was ever going to get back into woodworking that the time was near. I'm not getting any younger. Since then I've been buying tools and dreaming about this cool workshop that I'm going to make, hopefully soon. I've bought a bunch of cool tools. I've bought some new stuff, but I like to find the older tools that have been taken care of. I've almost got everything that I need, or so I tell my wife. The problem is I now have three times more stuff then I have cabinets for and it's piled everywhere!
I've reached a point in my life where I can now afford to be a woodworker. Still don't have the time, but I have more free time than I've ever had before. I'm in the process (planning stage) of making that dream shop. I'm facing a total remodel of my side of the basement; about 900 sq. ft. I need to build cubbyholes, lots and lots of cubbyholes.

It sounds like you are on your way Dan. A 900 sq, ft. workshop sounds awfully big to me. My shop is just about 220 sq. ft. it is too small really, but at my age I am often glad I don't have to do much walking while I'm working. If I had a large shop I would use a lot of the space to store wood and especially those darn cut-offs which tend to pile up very quickly. It would also be nice to have a place for a steam box and wood bending area. It's pretty exciting to think about a great shop and to finally get it finished. Good luck with your plans. -- Mike, an American living in Norway. |

In this increasingly digitalized world, we can't go anywhere without packing the chargers, the battery packs, the DVDs and the game systems. But what happens when the power goes out? How do we escape from it all? Yes, there truly is life and entertainment outside of the electrically-charged world. Here are a few gift ideas to help friends and family unplug and recharge.
Check out Barnes and Noble in St. Peters for the newest bestsellers or tried-and-true classics. Bookstores' shelves are stocked with adventures waiting beyond the front cover. Have a traveler in your posse? Check out the travelogues. So your mother-in-law is hooked on reality TV shows? You'll find plenty of drama in the fiction section. Nothing beats cozying up in front of the fireplace with a book.
Board games
Classics like Monopoly, Clue, Scrabble and Uno are always great choices, and the perfect way to spend quality family time. Local gift shops or the Chamber of Commerce might even have board games specific to your region. Hasbro has licensed many versions of its Monopoly games for university and other regions. Check local university bookstores or online at Amazon.com to find them. Got a card shark in the family? Find or print out a list of new card games to try, tuck them in with a new deck of playing cards, and watch what happens.
Concert tickets
For the music lover in your life, it might be hard to part with the MP3 player or iPod, but they'd easily hand them over for the chance to hear their favorite musicians live. Whether their music listening tends towards rock 'n' roll or opera, the options are limitless. Check out the St. Charles Family Arena schedule for upcoming acts or peruse Ticketmaster.com.
Dinner out
Mom might be a great cook, but even great cooks want a night away from the kitchen. A gift certificate to her favorite restaurant might be a perfect addition to the menu.
Maybe you've got someone in your family who loves the History or Discovery channels. What better way from them to unplug and recharge than through fun educational classes? St. Charles Community College and school districts often offer adult continuing education classes, everything from guitar lessons to photography classes. Got a Dancing with the Stars fan? Dance lessons at the local dance studio might be just the ticket. Cooking classes are another option.
Exercise pass
For some, the perfect way to recharge is through exercise. If you've got a fitness buff in the family, a pass to try the latest exercise class might be just what they would love to recharge. Check the local YMCA or the Renaud Spirit Center for class passes and other deals.
Maid to Order
There's never time to unwind and recharge when the house is a mess. Help unplug that vacuum by giving the gift of a house cleaner for the day.
Spa Gift Certificates
The ultimate in an unplugged excursion. No cell phone, no computer, just relaxation. Manicure and pedicures are another great idea.
Weekend getaway
Give your loved ones a chance to get away from it all. With tickets in hand or a hotel room booked, it's a lot harder to give excuses as to why they can't unplug. You might not be able to confiscate the cell phone, but you can give them the chance to find relaxation away from the daily routine.
Gift Ideas to Help Unplug, Recharge
Not every gift this season has to come with a battery charger.

These are exactly the kind of gifts I love to give (and receive.) I love to provide an experience for someone, as they use their gift, whether it's a dip into another world through a book - or a class or a vacation. Great list!

The first thing we learned about war re-enactment is that it's fucking terrifying having guns fired at you, even ones loaded with blanks. The second thing we learned is a common re-enactor's dilemma called "The G.I. Effect", which is basically that people playing Americans don't like to die. So sometimes they just don't.It's Like Vietnam All Over Again, pt 1. Part 2

Species cross-reactivity is determined by western blot.
Applications Key: W=Western Blotting, IP=Immunoprecipitation, IF-IC=Immunofluorescence (Immunocytochemistry)
Specificity / Sensitivity
IRAP Antibody detects endogenous levels of total IRAP protein.
Source / Purification
Polyclonal antibodies are produced by immunizing animals with a synthetic peptide corresponding to the sequence of human IRAP protein. Antibodies are purified by protein A and peptide affinity chromatography.
IRAP (also known as LNPEP) was originally described as an insulin-responsive aminopeptidase found in Glut4-containing vesicles (1). It is essentially always in the same compartments as Glut4 and has identical insulin-stimulated translocation patterns as Glut4 (2). IRAP is therefore considered to be a surrogate marker for Glut4 (2). IRAP was later found to be a critical enzyme that regulates the expression and activity of several essential hormones and regulatory proteins, including the Glut4 transporter (3,4). This membrane associated, zinc-dependent cystinyl aminopeptidase acts as both a receptor for angiotensin IV as well as the enzyme that catalyzes the synthesis of this essential hormone from its angiotensinogen precursor (5). IRAP catalyzes the hydrolysis of several peptide hormones, including oxytocin and vasopressin (4). Abnormal IRAP expression or activity is associated with several forms of cancer in humans, including renal and endometrial cancers (6,7).

Captain & Tennille ring in the holidays with a new CD.
Photo: "The Secret of Christmas" album cover
Captain & Tennille's new CD, "The Secret of Christmas," contains two songs, "Tahoe Snow" and "Christmas Star," that Toni wrote when she and Daryl lived in the Lake Tahoe area. "I was walking on the Glenbrook golf course on Christmas Eve," Toni recalls. "It was snowing like inside those little globes, with perfect flakes coming down. 'Tahoe Snow' just popped into my head." She hurried home to her piano to write the song.
Toni also wrote two more holiday pieces for the album, which is on sale now, produced by Retroactive Entertainment.
(Listen to the song)
Tahoe snow and Christmas make me glad
To be right here where the sun shines
In the bright Sierra sky, I love it
Ho Ho Ho, says Santa 'cause you know
He loves to fly through the mountains
With the snowflakes drifting by
Talk about your white Christmas
You've never seen a white Christmas
It hasn't been the right Christmas
Till you've been there in the alpine air, oh
Come let's go
We'll have the brightest Christmas
In the Tahoe snow!
*Music & lyrics by Toni Tennille

Tennille's "Spirit of the Season" show comes to Reno's Grand Sierra Resort on December 1 and 2. To purchase tickets, or for more information, call 775-789-2000 or visit grandsierraresort.com.

A county along Georgia's coast is facing some high expenses as it works to bring facilities into compliance with the Americans With Disabilities Act.
The Brunswick News reports that a U.S. Department of Justice audit found that Glynn County hasn't done enough to comply with the act after it became law in 1990.
The audit found that many of the county's buildings, parks, playgrounds and sidewalks built or modified after 1992 weren't in compliance.
The Justice Department sent a list of violations to the county, leading to an October 2009 agreement to correct them within five years.
County officials say some work has been done, but the most expensive work is yet to come. The county is budgeting $100,000 for the work required for the next fiscal year.

Good hostel. We were upgraded to the nearby apartments which were clean and roomy. Reception hours at apartments are only 9-3 but we were able to use the 24 hr reception at oasis down the road.

Adequate towels, and toilet paper for a 4 day stay. Great cooking facilities too.

The folks with GiftTree have out done themselves! The Christmas Enchantment ornament arrived before Santa's sleigh even thought of leaving the North Pole.

Assistant head coach/quarterbacks Mike Heimerdinger is headed back to Tennessee.
The Titans hired Heimerdinger as their offensive coordinator on Thursday, one day after Head Coach Mike Shanahan gave Heimerdinger permission to interview with the Titans for the staff vacancy created by their dismissal of Norm Chow.
When Heimerdinger signed on as assistant head coach for the Broncos in February 2006, it marked a reunion as he had worked as wide receivers coach in Denver from 1995-99. His move to Tennessee is another reunion, as he worked as the team's offensive coordinator from 2000-04 before spending a year with the New York Jets.
"Mike was at the top of my list and we are fortunate he was available to come back," Titans Head Coach Jeff Fisher said. "We know each other very well and he is without a doubt the right person to help the offense take the next step."
Heimerdinger's departure is another jolt of change to the Broncos' staff, which nine days earlier saw assistant head coach/defense Jim Bates step aside after he declined a move to linebackers coach after he oversaw the defense in 2007.

Diner Reviews
I didn't expect this place to be
so good after reading a few bad reviews. I went here for restaurant week with a few friends and I'm still thinking about the little pasta pouches I had with delicate pear and cheese mixture. SO good. I loved that they had a vegetarian option that was actually top notch, and not boring spaghetti or roasted vegetables. Everybody, including those who ate meat, enjoyed their food. The staff was also very nice and helpful. Would definitely come here again."

Food was delicious. I had the
spinach ravioli in sage/butter sauce. It was delightful."

Valentines Day I was never made aware that the only menu offered that night was prix fixe and $65 each! The waitress didn't notify us of the included champagne either. Even for a tradiatonially served 4 course italian meal each course was exceptionally small. After $65 worth of fine dining you shouldn't be exploding at the seams but you should be full. Ambience was bismal and the staff was uneducated and ill mannered. I'm sure the place would be great for enjoying some wine and an appetizer but not worth spending a whole meal."

The homemade saffron pasta with
crabmeat was absolutely delicious!"

I have been here before and love
it. Wonderful food and service - everyone is so pleasant. I asked about a dish that wasm't on the menu and despite the fact that it was seasonal, they made it for me anyway. I will go back again for sure."

Went on a quiet Thursday night,
and was expecting much more based on many of the reviews. The place looks and smells tired, and the food was middle of the road, in no way justfying the price. Service wasn't awful, but the whole place appears to have lost its fastball."

I recently went to Mezzogiomo with
my sister to celebrate birthdays. I had the homemade saffron pasta with crab meat. Very generous portion but a bit on the dry side. My sister had the ravioli. Very tasty but a much smaller portion. Creme brule for dessert which was good. Our waiter, Michel, was very friendly. Overall pleasant but nothing special."

Great food in a relaxed
atmosphere. Sat outside with my granddaughter and enjoyed the passer-bys."

We sat outside - great view, great
service, great food. We'll be back"

We normally love this restaurant,
but this time was sub par. They recently changed the menu and I hope that this is not a sign that the restaurant quality is no longer as good as it used to be."

I took my wife to Mezzogiorno for
our wedding anniversary. This was only our second visit. I noted it was our anniversary in the comments section of my OpenTable reservation and asked for a specific location. The host, Fab, was excellent - extremely warm and welcoming. He escorted us to our table, exactly where I had requested. He then served us complimentary prosecco in celebration. During the meal Fab stopped by our table to make sure all was well (it was). We had the daily fish special which was perfectly done and flaked apart under the fork. Vegetables and pasta were also delicious. Staff were exceptional - warm, friendly, polite. Great menu. Could not have asked for better. Excellent! In short, go there! :)"

My boyfriend and I sat outside and

the food was almost average, and
the service was insulting.: a large staff that seemed to be oblivious and lazy. I won't be back."
Dined on 8/16/2013
One of my favorite places. I am
Italian and I highly recommend it to anyone."
Dined on 8/8/2013
The best food I've had in a long
time! We went there on restaurant week for Sunday dinner and I can honestly say that this place does not disappoint. We were a couple of minutes late but I let the host know that we would be late and he was very nice about it. We arrived and we were seated immediately. Our waiter was great and the busboys were very nice too. To me, their menu for restaurant week was the best. You get a lot for your money. I highly recommend it!"
Dined on 8/12/2013
The terrace of Mezzogiorno is
WONDERFUL! I also love that their sidewalk dining is expansive as well. I dined here as part of my Restaurant Week to do list. I enjoyed the healthy servings and delcious menu choices. I even treated myself to a glass of port to finish off my dining experience. It was very good as well. The wait staff were friendly but somewhat overwhelmed. I think they were understaffed that evening. Essentially, it was a solid dining experience and I cannot think of anyone being totally disappointed in trying this place out."
Dined on 8/7/2013
I went here with friends for
restaurant week & we loved it! Great ambiance - highly recommend sitting outside. The service was excellent & the food was great. The restaurant week menu was better than most we've been to. Highly recommend going here!"
Dined on 8/2/2013
We needed a restaurant in this
location, and also wanted a Restaurant Week participant. We liked the choices on the special menu; the food was tasty, not extraordinary, but well prepared with fresh ingredients. The service was excellent - friendly, attentive and prompt. The decor and ambience were pleasant and relaxing. We sat and talked for a while after dinner, and we were not rushed out. We sat inside, but there was quite a crowd at the outdoor tables."
Dined on 8/1/2013
Nice surprise in this pleasant
corner restaurant that has a lively but not too noisy atmosphere and excellent food. Pasta pies with pear and cheese filling were delicious. Three dining companions were all happy with their meals, as was I, and left satiated. Very friendly wait staff and manager. It was restaurant week and we even got extras such as liqueur and cookies. Highly recommended!"
Dined on 7/25/2013
My friend was in from Houston, we
had not been down to Soho for ten years. I took a look at the availability on OpenTable and realized that they were participating in Restaurant Week. We had a food had beautiful presentation. Save room for the Ricotta Cheese Cake - It's divine!"
Dined on 7/25/2013
Three of us had a casual dinner
here, family style - shared a tasty, flat pizza first; then the pasta of the day, simple, and cold, which was great for a very hot day; finally, a chicken dish, which wasn't even on the menu, that our waiter recommended. Our red wine also was not on the list, but proved a great buy. Very good food, excellent service, and reasonable prices. We'll be happy to return."

We decided to take a trip to NYC
to our favorite lunch/pizza place. Mezzagiorno never disappoints. Always worth the trip. The best thin crust Margarita pizza ever!!!"
Dined on 7/14/2013
Was searching for an authentic
Italian meal and know to avoid the touristy Little Italy. After finding this spot on another search site (either Yelp or Urbanspoon?), we decided to make a reservation. . My regret is that we didn't stay at Savore (across the street) as they claim all of their pasta is homemade; Mezzagiorno only offers 3-4 housemade pastas. My BF had a seafood dish over pasta which he said was pretty good; I had the special, crabmeat ravioli in a spicy red sauce. The ravioli were very flat and had very little crabmeat or cheese filling. The sauce was tasty and not too spicy and the ravioli were good, not gummy, just not what I'd expected."
Dined on 6/30/2013
We have wanted to try Mezzogiorno
for years--and we finally made it. It is an adequate Italian restaurant and we might return but it is not extraordinary as I hoped it would be. The service was uneven: during the meal we were ignored at times, but not always. Wines by the glass are well priced and generous. We began with a pizza which was good: we would order one again. Then a pasta for one of us: it was fine. The real problem was the veal: thin, hard, cool temperature, tasteless, and chewy, topped with a few dry wilted green leaves and mushy tasteless tomato cubes. Really, the veal is the lingering impression because it was so bad. Be careful when ordering."
Dined on 6/22/2013
We had a very enjoyable dinner
here on a summer night with the walls open to the street. It's a great corner location for people watching. We started with an excellent pizza appetizer and fresh salads. The Bronzino was prepared exactly the way I wanted it. My daughter ordered the ravioli which she enjoyed followed by a chocolate dessert that she loved. The service was attentive without hovering. We definitely recommend it."
Dined on 6/6/2013
something has happened to the
food. the last two times I was very disappointed. Dry pasta with truffles, favorless shrimp and crab salad. too bad. will seek out another lunch biz place in the area."
Dined on 6/4/2013
Had a semi-impromptu dinner here
on a Saturday night. The place was full but not uncomfortably so, with a lively mix of diners including families with young children. All the servers were very polite and helpful, and everything we had was quite enjoyable: papardelle, prosciutto, filet mignon, seafood, and pizza. Lovely evening and a reasonably priced meal in a fun neighborhood."

We were fans of Mezzogiorno years
ago and had forgotten about it until recently, and have been back three times within the past two months. Authentic, well-prepared, not-overly-fussy or precious food. Friendly, professional service. A casual neighborhood vibe."

Home / LSA Students / International Internship Program / French-Speaking /
The tradition of internships in France stems from the idea that the company is being kind enough to hire you to teach you their trade. Even though you may work 35hrs a week--they are still doing you a favor. You will very likely not be paid for your internship. Accept this for the wonderful learning opportunity that it is. Some internships are paid, but in the past these positions have tended to be in the field of Engineering.
The good news: Some companies provide some benefits like free lunch or housing free of charge.

Palacio de La Generalitat
A Flamboyant Gothic building, built in 1421 as the seat of the Valencian Autonomous Government, in charge of representing Valencia before the Courts. The palace is divided into three storeys, with rectangular windows on the ground floor, triple windows with columns in the main floor, and a gallery at the top level. In the 16th century, a Renaissance lower was added, built by Juan Corbera. The tower is decorated with classical pediment above its windows and Renaissance iconography. The entire building is crowned by a balustrade, adorned with masonry balls, imitating El Escorial. The most striking features of the interior of the building are the courtyard and the tower's Sala Nova hall.

Brian Matuszak column: Random Thoughts for a random day
So it's April Fool's Day. April Fool! It's only the middle of March. But that doesn't mean we can't have some foolish fun via a random thought or three.
So it's April Fool's Day. April Fool! It's only the middle of March. But that doesn't mean we can't have some foolish fun via a random thought or three.
So, without further ado (because I have a limited amount of ado to get me through the rest of the month), may I present some Random Thoughts? I may!
• There's no one I'd rather wake up to than Pat Kelly. Unfortunately, he has to be at KDAL pretty early, so he gets up first.
• I'm no marketing guru, but when this year's Professional Bowling Association champion writes his autobiography, he'd better put his name all over that thing.
• Interesting Tidbit: there is not one person named Herman living in Hermantown.
• If you're standing in line outside The Last Place on Earth, don't bother trying to pass the time playing Does This Look Infected To You? The answer is always Yes.
• Whenever I leave a room, I whisper: "Mission accomplished."
• Whenever I enter a room, I scream: "THE EAGLE HAS LANDED!!"
• I don't seem to get invited to a lot of parties.
• Lots of surprises in Don Ness' State of the City video. For example,
I found out that Enger Tower is made entirely of dryer lint and gum. And in the event of a Twin Ports divorce, Superior gets custody of the Bong and High Bridges, but Duluth gets Proctor. And "Teatro Zuccone" is Italian for "You have zucchini in your teeth."
• I may be in the minority, but I think they should make the test for the Emergency Broadcast System multiple-choice.
• Another State of the City video observation: You didn't hear it from me, but I know for a fact the mayor used a body double for the nude scene.
• There's no proof that George Lucas named Luke Skywalker after the Duluth skywalk system, but I have heard noises emanating from the Holiday Center restrooms that sound like the words "Boba Fett."
• Lately, I've been wondering more and more about my purpose in this universe, and I've got it narrowed down to volunteering at the animal shelter, reading to children at the library, or watching "Cupcake Wars" on The Food Network.
• Adam Clark needs a new sign-off phrase after his weather forecast. "Them's the temps, Chester!" isn't fresh anymore. However, I do enjoy when he lifts up his shirt to reveal the daily barometric pressure written in crayon across his belly. Keep that.
• Every ten minutes, a horse gives birth in this country. We've got to find that horse.
Brian Matuszak is the co-founder of Renegade Comedy Theatre, founder of Rubber Chicken Theater, and has more random thoughts than Mars has monkeys.

How to Make a To-Go Sandwich Assemble the Perfect To-Go Sandwich For the Road by Anna Monette Roberts 8/06/13 8 Reactions 58 Shares Print 36 6 16 0 0 Packing sandwiches for the open road can be messy business — by the time lunch rolls around, the sandwich bread can be squishy and saturated with tomato juice. Once you start eating the sandwich, more of it can end up in your lap than in your mouth. Let's toss those subpar roadie sandwiches aside and start making perfect travel sandwiches instead. All you need are a baguette, your favorite condiment, an avocado, deli meat, cheese, and a large lettuce leaf. Learn the magic behind the one-handed, spill-free sandwich that's easy to eat while you're on the open road. Start Find the Right Baguette What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 Standard loaves of bread tend to be too fragile for travel. They squish, become soggy, and seep the sandwich contents everywhere. A baguette is the far superior choice for travel, because it's easy to hold and has a hardy crust that can soak up moisture. Here's the secret to finding the perfect baguette: choose one that is individual-sized with a soft, spongy interior and a sturdy crust. Avoid sourdough on the drier side; you want the baguette to be crusty but malleable enough to bite without using your other hand to help tear off the bread. Remember, this is a one-handed sandwich for the road! 1 / 12 Cut the Baguette What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 Use a sharp bread knife to cut the baguette across the center of its horizontal axis. For an even cut across, place your left hand flat and firmly down on the top of the baguette, and begin sawing the middle of the baguette with the knife in your right hand. Here's another helpful tip for getting an even cut: bend down so the knife is at your eye level, and always make sure the knife is parallel with the cutting board as you cut. 2 / 12 Pluck Out Bread Innards What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 To make this sandwich more travel friendly, pluck out the bread innards to create a bread bowl, so the sandwich fixings fit snugly inside. Bread lovers, leave the top half of the bread intact and only pluck out the bread from the bottom half. 3 / 12 Spread the Condiments What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 On a really hot day, skip the mayonnaise and slather mustard instead. Honey Dijon offers just enough sweet and tart flavor, plus its syrupy consistency soaks into the bread without making it soggy. 4 / 12 Add the Avocado Slices What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 Add the avocado to the bottom of the sandwich half (inside the "bread bowl"). If the avocado is less ripe, slice it very thinly and spread the slices across the bread. 6 / 12 Spread the Avocado What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 If the avocado is super ripe, press and spread it into the baguette. Creating an avocado spread is the best way to prevent avocado chunks from flying out while eating the sandwich. 6 / 12 Roll the Turkey and Cheese What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 Rolling the meat and cheese together holds everything intact for easier, cleaner eating in the car. Simply roll cheese into a deli slice like a burrito. Each sandwich should hold between two to four pieces of rolled meat and cheese. 7 / 12 Top With a Large Lettuce Leaf What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 There are no tomatoes in this sandwich, mostly because they don't hold up for hours in the car and the jelly insides are always messy. We're topping this sandwich with lettuce only. Find a large lettuce leaf and cut it, so its stem side is the same height as the baguette. Tuck the leaves under, until the lettuce leaf is the same size as the baguette. 8 / 12 Behold the Mighty Travel Sandwich What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 Ta-da! Your sandwich is complete. The ideal travel sandwich is evenly stuffed with fixings, none of which are sticking outside of the baguette. 9 / 12 Check For Comfortable Thickness What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 Before wrapping it up, check to see that the sandwich rests comfortably in your grip. If your fingers are straining to hold onto it, then your sandwich is too thick. Take out some of those fixings, and test for thickness again. Otherwise, if it feels just right, it's time to pack it. 11 / 12 Wrap the Sandwich What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 To keep your hands mess free on the road, place the sandwich in a wax paper "koozie." Start with a square piece of wax paper. Fold it in half to create a triangle. Slip the sandwich in between the paper until the sandwich bottom hits the fold of the paper, and the tops of the triangle rest in the center of the sandwich. Fold the right side of the paper tightly across the sandwich, and repeat on the left side. To save the sandwich for later, wrap it tightly in clingy plastic wrap or in a large plastic baggie. 11 / 12 Enjoy on the Open Road What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 The wax paper makes it easy to eat with one hand while you are driving, plus it helps catch spills and seepage. Packing travel sammies will never be the same again! 12 / 12 36 6 16 0 0 Back to Homepage Read More Summer TravelCooking BasicsRoad TripsHow-ToCooking TipsSummerSandwichesTravel Cooking Basics Waste Not! 7 Hacks to Use Every Last Scrap of Food 1 day ago 21 Wine Terms to Master 2 days ago Cut a Mango — The Right Way 3 days ago How to Fill a Pastry Bag Without Making a Huge Mess 4 days ago What Does — and Does Not — Belong in the Dishwasher 4 days ago Ribboning Instantly Upgrades Asparagus 5 days ago Get a Personalized Living Newsletter!

The heavy duty thick wall dSLR housing is molded of corrosion free clear polycarbonate, features full capabilities, and operates safely to 200 feet. The housing includes iTTL conversion circuitry that provides four 1/3 f/stop increments over or under flash compensation that is added to or subtracted from any compensation entered into the camera, or seven manual power settings in half-stop increments. All choices are obtained by simply rotating a knob on the housing back. The housing's special conversion circuitry operates perfectly with all current model Ikelite DS digital SubStrobes. See strobe requirements by serial number. Other strobes can be used, but they can not provide iTTL. Mount and sync cords for Nikonos and sync cords for Inon or Sea & Sea strobes are available. All ports from our SLR systems can be utilized, allowing use of most macro, wide angle, and zoom lenses. This system allows you to see that the port is sealed. The housing "O" ring seal is a masterpiece in fail-safe simplicity compared to designs that require stuffing the "O" ring into a groove. You can see that the "O" ring is sealed. The Release Handles allow easy attachment and removal of SubStrobe mounting arms at the touch of a button. Two screws remove the handle and tray assembly for traveling. |
Click on photo for enlarged view #6808.1 iTTL housing without port $1,400 Clearly superior housing sparkles like a fine jewel underwater while being lithe and easy to use. |
Controls for all camera functions are provided except lock switch and the function button. AE/AF lock button can be activated with your thumb while holding the handle. The AF "on" is controlled by push button. Camera Flash Compensation button can be activated by your index finger while your hand remains on the handle. A control for Lens Release is also included. Focus-mode (C/S/M) selector can be changed with a little finesse. The camera tray is notched, allowing battery and card replacement without removing the camera from the tray. The housing size and weight provides neutral buoyancy and superb handling underwater. Camera installation is quick and simple. The dependable controls are conveniently placed at your fingertips, and kept water tight with Ikelite pioneered Quad-Ring seal glands proven to be the most reliable method for sealing controls. The Ikelite Super-Eye magnifier provided with the housing offers enhanced viewing while wearing a diving mask.

Google promised to safeguard Arris in Moto-TiVo spat
Google apparently sweetened the sale of its Motorola set-top box business to Arris in an unusual way -- by largely indemnifying Arris against potential losses in a Motorola-TiVo patent tussle.
According to TechCrunch, which listened to a conference call Arris CEO Bob Stanzione held with analysts yesterday, Google has offered to cap any liability Arris might face in the event Motorola's set-top box business Home is found to have violated patents owned by DVR maker TiVo.
The trouble started in October when TiVo filed a patent-infringement claim against Motorola, saying that the Google-owned company's set-top boxes were infringing … Read more
