As the weather cools off and our schedules heat up in the fall of the year it's easy to forget about our lawns until next spring. Now is the time to start making it happen, if you have a few minutes here & there in the fall, here are some quick and easy things you can do that will make a big difference come spring.
Feed Your Lawn:
Consider feeding your lawn with fertilizer in early September to help it recover from the heat and foot traffic of summer. If weeds are an issue you might consider using a good weed and feed to do two jobs at once.
Reseeding your Lawn:
If you have thin areas in the lawn from those summertime backyard ballgames you should consider reseeding to thicken things up a bit. You can apply a fertilizer at the same time but hold off on any weed control products until the new grass has been mowed at least four times. Just be sure to keep the lawn thoroughly watered while the new grass is coming in.
People often think that leaving Fall leaves on top of the lawn will insulate it for Winter, but they actually block the necessary sunlight leaving the lawn thinner. Instead of spending your Saturdays raking, consider mulching the leaves your mower so the tiny pieces filter into the lawn instead of covering it. After mulching a Fall fertilizer will help breakdown the mulch and give the lawn the nutrients it needs to store up for Spring greening.
Clean Your Tools:
Finally, before you put your tools away for the winter be sure to give them a little attention too. After a long summer of heavy use, now is the perfect time to sharpen your mower blades and clean the mower deck. Before you store the mower be sure the fuel tank is empty or add some fuel stabilizer so it's ready to go when you are next Spring.

It's a very nice coat, I like it very much.
November 11, 2012
It fits me well and looks good. It is not as thick as a ski coat but it's enough to keep myself worm and comfortable. I like it very much. I'm considering whether to buy a second one.
Pros: Great design, Build quality, Great valueGREAT JACKET FITS NICE
March 09, 2012
I was concerned this jacket would be tight, but went ahead and still ordered a large. Usually north face tends to run small for me, but this one fit just right, and still has a little room. So far so good for warmth.
Pros: Build quality, Performance, Great valueseems like a great jacket
February 25, 2012
Just got it out of the box so really don't know how it will stand up to the elements. It fits great, is well made and seems like it will do great in the outdoors too. The one dissappointment I have is with the de-tatchable hood. What are you supposed to do with it while you're skiing and not using it, stuff it in your pocket and feel the big bulge all day? Hasn't North Face figured out a way to roll it up and store it behind the collar somehow?
Pros: Build quality, Great value, Cons: Bad designvery pleased
March 24, 2012
For the mild winter our area has had I am very satisfied. It will be interesting to see how the coat is in colder weather. But overall extremely satisfied.

Should Public Retirement Plans be Fully Funded?
Most state and local retirement plans strive for full funding, at least by actuarial standards. Funding measured at market values fluctuates and often falls short. A common argument for full funding is that pensions are a form of deferred compensation that does not justify a debt. The paper examines public finance, political economy, and financial market issues that bear on optimal funding, broadly and in a series of models. In a model where most taxpayers hold debt and face intermediation costs, returns on pension assets are less than taxpayers' cost of borrowing. Pension funding is costly and hence zero funding is optimal. The model also implies that unfunded pension promises are properly discounted at a rate strictly greater than the government's borrowing rate. If pension funds serve as collateral, funding can be warranted despite the cost. This is shown in a model with legal ambiguity and default risk. Except in special cases, the optimal funding ratio is less than full funding.Download Info

Banning a university from recruiting non-European Union students creates "an appalling image" of Britain around the world, MPs have heard.
London Metropolitan University was stripped of its highly trusted sponsor status (HTS) last week after the UK Border Agency (UKBA) said university officials failed to monitor students' attendance.
The decision, which removes London Met's right to sponsor students from outside the EU, means it can no longer authorise visas and could leave more than 2,000 undergraduates facing deportation.
The Government defended the move saying many students had no right to be in the country and accused the university of "failing to address serious and systemic failings" identified six months ago.
But Labour MP Jeremy Corbyn has claimed the withdrawal of HTS would deter foreigners from studying in the UK.
He said: "The image around the world is one that is really quite appalling because it suggests that overseas students may well be deported from this country because of a decision made by UKBA for which there is no detail given as to the basis of that decision."
The Islington North MP said the move jeopardised London Met's future and urged ministers to allow current students to finish their courses. He added: "Every university in this country has cause to be concerned by this decision from UKBA."
But, answering an urgent Commons question as MPs returned from the summer recess, Tory immigration minister Damian Green said: "UKBA found systemic failures which meant that London Met had not been able to ensure the appropriate admission and tracking of students from abroad."
Mr Green said allowing London Met to continue awarding visas would have undermined the regime. "Institutions must comply with the rules, whether they sponsor 10, 100 or 1,000 international students. This includes having a system to check that students have the right visas to study in the UK and monitoring the attendance of students," he told MPs.
He said officials would start writing to affected students on October 1, giving them 60 days to leave Britain or find another university to complete their studies.

Cellar/Tasting Notes Donelan's 2011 Chardonnay Nancie is pretty and expressive. Another wine with lovely textural depth and nuance, the 2011 is laced with dried apricots, nectarines, flowers and mint, all of which come together in the glass. Though medium in body, the 2011 impresses for its soft, caressing personality..
Cellar/Tasting Notes "Round and supple, with excellent cut. The apple, peach and lemon flavors start out matched to a rich texture, dovetailing to a point as the finish stretches out.."
Cellar/Tasting Notes "A very pretty combination of spice, mineral reduction, citrus blossom and ocean breeze leads to impressive rich and round flavors that possess a seductive texture. There is fine depth and length and while this is less intense than the Séchets, it's finer. This too is worth considering."

Robot Baby Shower Space Invaders! A Cute and Clever Robot-Inspired Shower by Kate Stahl 4/30/13 2 Reactions 29 Shares Print 15 4 10 0 0 Baby bytes, anyone? Leila Lewis of Inspired By This definitely thought outside of the box when it came time to plan a shower for her good friend Carissa Jones of floral and event styling company JL Designs. The theme: Space Invaders (quite appropriate, if you think about it, right?). From that jumping off point, Leila, along with industry friends at Jesi Haack Design, Wedding Chicks, and Cherish Paperie, created one of the most inventive baby showers we've ever seen. With sweet and savory snacks like robot cake pops and "micro chips" as well as awesome backdrops and beautiful blooms, courtesy of the mom-to-be, this shower somehow makes old-school robots look modern, cute, and totally baby shower friendly. Keep clicking to see all the mega details.

iTunes won't let me create an Apple ID?
Whenever I try to create a new Apple ID, iTune says:
"Your request could not be completed. Make sure your computer's date is set correctly and that it accepts cookies from the Itunes Store" I googled this and it's common but could not find a single solution. Any help please? I think this happened because once I legged into the US store but I use the Australia store. Did that mess something up and how can I fix it? |

Say goodbye to ICLEI.
The international organization, created by the United Nations to gather local governments around the world in a commitment to sustainable development, is leaving Clallam County.
The City of Sequim's membership in ICLEI lapsed at the end of September.
Clallam County Administrator Jim Jones has been directed by the county commissioners to remove the annual $1,200 payment for county dues to ICLEI from the next budget. Unless the commissioners act before Dec. 6 to rescind that decision, the new budget will reflect the commissioners' order.
ICLEI, which is formally known as "ICLEI: Local Governments for Sustainability," has been the subject of heated debate for the past few years, with the Concerned Citizens of Clallam County taking a stance against local membership.
Bill Paulbitski explained the issue the Concerned Citizens have with ICLEI, pointing out that it is an administrative organization tasked with carrying out Agenda 21, the U.N.'s template for global sustainable growth.
"It's not a question of being green," he said.
"Everyone should be green. It's authority. That's the question," Paulbitski said.
He said that many object to following the rules and guidelines promoted by ICLEI simply because they aren't home-grown.
"Who defines our needs?" he asked.
Paulbitski said in following Agenda 21 guidelines some communities in the U.S. have created radical policies. He cited rules sought in Sonoma County, Calif., that would have "made it very difficult to live in rural areas."
"Cities and counties jumped on the bandwagon," he said.
People are concerned, he said, because ICLEI is providing administrative functions that are rightly reserved to the people of the United States.
Officials with the city and the county say they've listened the complaints, but none were willing to say they played a part in their decision to let their ICLEI membership lapse.
Jones attributed the decision to a tight budget.
He said the county joined ICLEI three years ago because the organization offered software "that would have otherwise cost us $10,000."
The software was useful, Jones said, in helping the county determine where it could cut costs and its carbon footprint, including "analyzing electricity usage throughout a building —— like the courthouse."
ICLEI also publishes a newsletter providing information on the strategies municipalities and counties around the nation are utilizing to reduce their costs.
"That was part of the ... sales pitch," Jones said. "Nobody had heard of Agenda 21 at the time."
Since then, Jones said, "somebody on a national radio show" brought it to everyone's attention.
Jones remains unconvinced it's a nefarious organization.

A DAY IN THE LIFE Eric Hanson, Brunswick, Maine Wildlife Ecology, College of Natural Sciences, Forestry and Agriculture |
6:30 | The alarm clock blares and I hop out of bed. I hit the shower and then grab a quick bowl of cereal. | ||
7:00 | Off to the Maine Bound Adventure Center for a staff meeting with all the instructor staff. It's a good bunch of people and a great way to start off my day. It gets me going. | ||
8:00 | Plant Taxonomy–my first class–over at Nutting Hall. This hall is home to us Wildlife Ecology majors. It has everything we need to survive, including vending machines for food, computers, and a lounge with nice couches for catching a quick snooze. | ||
9:30 | On to my second class, Wildlife Habitat Analysis, just up the hallway. This class is really interesting, because we discuss a variety of concepts and scientific studies. | ||
11:00 | Whew, class is done for the short-term so I meet up with my roommates for a sandwich at the Memorial Union Marketplace. The "Winslow" is my favorite, it's a Chicken Caesar wrap with croutons. | ||
11:45 | Back to my on-campus apartment suite to get my paddling gear organized so I can get over to the Adventure Center. I'm teaching Introduction to Whitewater Kayaking this afternoon. | ||
1:00 | The whole kayaking class meets at the Maine Bound Adventure Center and then we head off to the nearby Kenduskeag River to work on river running skills. This is a great class and being able to teach it has really developed my skills as an instructor. | ||
5:00 | After class I hang up all my wet gear and head back to my apartment to whip up some dinner. | ||
5:30 | After that, I'm off to the Fogler Library to work on some homework. I like working on the first floor because the big tables are great for sprawling out and getting work done. I have a big paper due next week and I need to work on the outline for it. | ||
7:00 | Time to pack up my work and walk over to the CCA for the Spring Maine Steiner's concert. They're the UMaine men's a capella group (there's a women's group too, called Renaissance) and they're very talented. They travel all over the country performing and give a great performance and for students the tickets are only ten bucks. | ||
8:45 | Back to my apartment to finish some other homework and relax a bit. My five roommates all arrive home and we hang out for a while. It's a great way to finish off a busy day. | ||
11:55 | By this time I'm getting pretty tired so I'm headed to bed with a book and it won't take me long to fall asleep… |

Main main index Narrative
The characters are talking about tropes. They're not talking about tropes from their own series, so it's not Lampshade Hanging. They're not talking about tropes in a way that goes "hey, we're aware that we're fictional", so it's not Meta Fiction. They're not actively involving the viewer, so it's not Post Modernism. They're not tearing down the tropes, so it's not Deconstruction.
They're just talking, in a Seinfeldian Conversation kind of way, about conventions found in media in general. Pointing them out, going "Huh, that's interesting", idly coming up with possible reasons for them. Starting to sound real familiar, right?
Often used as a Shout-Out, in a similar vein as an Affectionate Parody — or not. Sometimes it's subtle Lampshade Hanging, describing tropes that occur later in the work, or earlier, but not talking about those events. Either that, or the writers/characters just found some time to kill.

The Business Bib
Do you telecommute to work on a regular basis? For many who work from home on a regular basis, the dress code is relaxed, to say the least. Some work in jeans and a T-shirt, while others stick with pjs and slippers for the majority of their working hours. But with a rise in video conferencing, stay at home workers find that they have to meet real office dress codes even in their home office. Enter the Business Bib. It enables wearers to look like they're properly attired in a full suit from the chest up, so you can fool you boss and co-workers via webcam and avoid getting dressed for a bit longer in the mornings. It may look strange when viewed as a whole, but a glance at the gallery proves that they do look very convincing. The materials are of high quality and, perhaps best of all, you'll never have to worry about coordinating colors. Prices range from $135 to $150, and the personality descriptions with each bib are worth a read, even if you plan to stick with real suits.

EXCEL program to offer classes in Fort Wayne
Huntington, Ind.—In February, the Huntington University EXCEL Adult Degree Programs will begin offering classes in Fort Wayne, Ind., adding a fourth location to the program's sites which currently include Huntington, Columbia City and Wabash.
Classes will take place at the ExecuTrain building on 7337 W. Jefferson Blvd., offering one associate and four bachelor's degrees programs. The associate group will start on Feb. 9 and the bachelor's on Feb. 25.
Along with the new location comes a new partnership. EXCEL will work with ExecuTrain, offering continuing education credits for some of their trainings, which focus primarily on computer related courses.
"EXCEL's partnership with ExecuTrain is an opportunity to take the mission of Huntington University to a broader constituency," said Dr. Rick Upchurch, director of EXCEL. "We believe that EXCEL's offerings and the strong reputation of the university provide a beneficial option to adults seeking to complete their college degree, and we are excited about offering these benefits to the students of Southwest Fort Wayne."
EXCEL offers evening classes tailored to the schedule of most working adults. Classes are held one night per week, one subject at a time. Classes last five to eight weeks and lead to an associate degree in organizational management or bachelor's degrees in accounting, business administration, human resource management or not-for-profit leadership.
EXCEL also offers the Gateway Program through which adults can take continuing and general education classes for personal enrichment or toward the completion of a college degree. As a student-focused program, EXCEL provides a high quality business education enriched by Christian ethics and perspectives. Many of these classes may be taken in an online format.
For more information about the EXCEL program, log on to www.hu-excel.com, call (260) 563-2505 or (800) 600-4888.

Do you have an old carpet at home that you don't know what to do with? Well, I read recently that an OLD CARPET makes a PERFECT "weed mat" for use on garden beds!
You lay it in and around your plants within the garden bed and it blocks any weeds from growing through but because it is porous, it still allows water through for your plants.

Description. This workshop will focus on the distinctive demands of reading and responding to writing for graduate-level courses and research. We will cover concepts such as the genre conventions of scholarly writing and how understanding those can help you navigate your way through scholarly work, strategies for reading and responding to unfamiliar or difficult scholarly texts, and expectations of professors for how graduate students are expected to use the scholarship they read in class discussions and in the students' writing.

Also called alpha-adrenergic antagonists. A kind of medicine that treats a variety of health conditions, including high blood pressure, an enlarged prostate, and some circulation problems. Alpha-blockers relax certain muscles and help small blood vessels stay open and relaxed. This improves blood flow and lowers blood pressure.
Medicines used to treat allergic reactions, cold symptoms, and motion sickness.
A feeling of uneasiness, apprehension, and fear that is often accompanied by physical signs such as sweating, tension, and an increased heart rate.
Benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH)
Enlargement of the prostate gland that can lead to urination and bladder problems if the enlarged gland begins to press on the urethra.
A serious medical illness that involves the brain. Symptoms of depression include feelings of sadness, loss of interest or pleasure in activities that used to be enjoyed, and even thoughts of death or suicide. These feelings do not go away, and they can interfere with a person's everyday life.
A disease in which blood glucose (sugar) levels are too high. Insulin is a hormone in the body that helps glucose get from the blood into cells to give them energy. With diabetes, either the body doesn't make insulin or it doesn't use insulin the right way. This means that too much glucose stays in the blood. Over time, having too much glucose in the blood can cause serious health problems.
Enlarged prostate
Also known as benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH). This is a condition in which the prostate gland grows bigger. The gland may press on the urethra as it grows, causing urination and bladder problems.
Finasteride is used alone or in combination with other medications to treat benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH). Finasteride treats BPH by blocking the production of a male hormone that causes the prostate to enlarge. Finasteride may also be used to treat male pattern hair loss.
Frequent urination
Needing to urinate more often than usual. May be a symptom of benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH), also known as an enlarged prostate.
Heart disease
The number one killer in the United States. The most common cause of heart disease is narrowing or blockage of the blood vessels that supply blood to the heart and all other parts of the body. Heart disease can also happen when there are problems with the valves in the heart or with how well the heart pumps.
High blood cholesterol
Cholesterol is a waxy, fat-like substance found in the blood and all cells of the body. Your body needs some cholesterol to work the right way. Your body makes all the cholesterol it needs. But cholesterol is also found in some foods we eat. This extra cholesterol in your blood can also build up in your arteries. This is called plaque. Over time, plaque can cause arteries to narrow. This can stop or slow down the flow of blood to your heart and the rest of your body, causing heart disease.
High blood pressure (also called hypertension)
Blood pressure is the force of blood pushing against the walls of the arteries as the heart pumps out blood. When this pressure rises and stays high over time, it is called high blood pressure. It can lead to heart disease, heart failure, stroke, kidney failure, and other health problems.
A cancer of the white blood cells. White blood cells help the body fight infection. In leukemia, the bone marrow produces abnormal white blood cells, which crowd out healthy blood cells, making it hard for blood to do its work.
Low blood pressure (also called hypotension)
When blood pressure during and after each heartbeat is much lower than usual. When this happens, the heart, brain, and other parts of the body do not get enough blood.
Multiple myeloma
A blood cancer that affects plasma cells in bone marrow. In multiple myeloma, plasma cells grow out of control and form tumors in the bone marrow.
Multiple sclerosis (MS)
A nervous system disease that affects the brain and spinal cord. MS damages the material that surrounds and protects nerve cells. This damage slows down or blocks messages between the brain and the rest of the body, which can cause problems with a person's sight, muscles, coordination, balance, and mental functioning.
A rare type of vision loss. It is caused by low blood flow to the optic nerve in the eye. NAION stands for nonarteritic anterior ischemic optic neuropathy.
Also known as "poppers." A type of medicine commonly used to treat heart problems. These medicines relax and widen blood vessels. This allows more blood to flow to the heart, which makes the heart work less hard.
Taken by mouth, such as oral medicines for erectile dysfunction (ED).
Parkinson's disease
A disorder that kills or damages nerve cells in a part of the brain that controls how muscles move. Symptoms may include shaking, stiffness, slow movement, and poor balance and coordination.
PDE5 inhibitors
A class of drugs used as a first-line oral medicine for erectile dysfunction (ED). PDE5 is an abbreviated term for phosphodiesterase 5, an enzyme that breaks down cGMP during an erection, ultimately returning the penis to a flaccid state.
Peyronie's disease
A condition in which a hard lump (plaque) forms on the penis. Sometimes the lump makes the penis less flexible, which can be painful. It can also cause the penis to bend or arc during an erection.
A slang term for various chemical compounds, including amyl nitrite and butyl nitrite, that are used for recreational purposes. The chemical compound is inhaled to increase sexual desire.
An erection lasting more than 4 hours that results from blood not being able to exit the penis. If a man experiences priapism, he should seek emergency medical attention.
A gland in a man's body located near the base of his penis. The prostate secretes a fluid that makes up the main portion of the fluid (semen) that a man ejaculates during an orgasm.
Protease inhibitors
A class of drugs that can keep a virus from making copies of itself (for example, AIDS virus protease inhibitors).
Retinitis pigmentosa
An eye disease in which there is damage to the retina. The retina is the layer of tissue at the back of the inner eye that converts light images to nerve signals and sends them to the brain.
Sexual stimulation
The act of sexually arousing a person through touch and/or emotional excitement.
Sickle cell anemia
A disease in which the body produces abnormally shaped red blood cells. These sickle-shaped cells don't last as long as normal, round red blood cells. This can cause anemia. Also, the sickle cells get stuck in blood vessels, blocking blood flow. This can cause pain and organ damage. The disease is genetic, meaning it is passed from one generation to the next. About 1 in 12 African-Americans carries the trait for sickle cell disease.
Use of the muscles of the abdomen to push down on the bladder and increase the force of urine flow.
A male hormone responsible for male sex characteristics, such as facial hair, voice, and other changes that happen at puberty.
Urgent urination
A sudden, urgent need to urinate, accompanied by bladder discomfort. May be a symptom of benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH), also known as an enlarged prostate.
Weak stream
A slow or low urinary flow rate.
CIALIS is approved to treat erectile dysfunction (ED), the signs and symptoms of benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH), and both ED and the signs and symptoms of BPH. Taking CIALIS with finasteride when starting BPH treatment has been studied for 26 weeks. CIALIS is not for women or children.
What Is The Most Important Information I Should Know About CIALIS?
Do not take CIALIS if you:
After taking a single tablet, some of the active ingredient of CIALIS remains in your body for more than 2 days. The active ingredient can remain longer if you have problems with your kidneys or liver, or you are taking certain other medications.
Stop sexual activity and get medical help right away if you get symptoms such as chest pain, dizziness, or nausea during sex. Sexual activity can put an extra strain on your heart, especially if your heart is already weak from a heart attack or heart disease.
What Should I Tell My Healthcare Provider Before Taking CIALIS?
CIALIS is not right for everyone. Only your healthcare provider and you can decide if CIALIS is right for you. Ask your healthcare provider if your heart is healthy enough for you to have sexual activity. You should not take CIALIS if your healthcare provider has told you not to have sexual activity because of your health problems. Before taking CIALIS, tell your healthcare provider about all your medical problems, particularly if you have or ever had:
Can Other Medicines Affect CIALIS?
Tell your healthcare provider about all the medicines you take especially if you take:
What Should I Avoid While Taking CIALIS?
What Are The Possible Side Effects Of CIALIS?
The most common side effects with CIALIS are: headache, indigestion, back pain, muscle aches, flushing, and stuffy or runny nose. These side effects usually go away after a few hours. Men who get back pain and muscle aches usually get it 12 to 24 hours after taking CIALIS. Back pain and muscle aches usually go away within 2 days. Call your healthcare provider if you get any side effect that bothers you or one that does not go away.
Uncommon but serious side effects include:
An erection that won't go away: If you get an erection lasting more than 4 hours, seek immediate medical help to avoid long-term injury.
In rare instances, men taking prescription ED tablets, including CIALIS, reported a sudden decrease or loss of vision or hearing (sometimes with ringing in the ears and dizziness). It's not possible to determine if these events are related directly to the ED tablets or to other factors. If you have a sudden decrease or loss of vision or hearing, stop taking any ED tablet, including CIALIS and call a healthcare provider right away.

A 34-foot King Cat twin-hull catamaran sets sail on the waters of Lake Erie, its 900-horsepower engine churning up a frothy wake as it leaves port and enters the aqueous abyss. At Sara-J Sportfishing Charters, guests spend a sunny afternoon on the open water casting and reeling in the lake's bounty of fish. With more than 20 years of experience, captain Gary Carpenter is confident enough in his abilities that he promises that charters will either reel in fish by the end of their trip or passengers receive their money back. Tours set out in the morning or afternoon as captains pilot vessels towards schools of walleye, steelhead, or perch swimming beneath the surface. Passengers soak up the sun, nibble on snacks, and regale stories of reeling in their first bluegill or misplaced water-skier.
Founded by sports enthusiast and former adolescent Rick Hart, Jump Start Sports works to enrich pupils' childhoods by developing useful life skills through athletics. Qualified counselors employ their wealth of experience working with children to help campers learn teamwork and fair play as well as the fundamentals of fielding baseballs, scoring soccer goals, or synchronizing pom-pom work. A course structure built around age-appropriate activities, group play, and free electives ensures that students never get bored, and an 8:1 pupil-teacher ratio enables one-on-one assistance to young champions as they practice the graceful art of pitching or the scheming intrigue of free-agent contract negotiation.
Every year, Cinema at the Square takes over the Palace Theatre's 20'x47' screen to treat moviegoers to an eclectic lineup of classic flicks. With a restored 1927 Kimball organ played before the films, the month-long festival transports viewers back in time, allowing them to forget their everyday cares and give fellow show-goers new everyday cares by dumping a pack of Milk Duds into their purse. The Palace Theatre was originally built in the roaring '20s, and proffers the perfect locale for breathless escapism, with rich red carpet and a lobby dominated by a sweeping marble staircase.
Family owned and operated for 30 years, Frame Center provides decorative and museum-quality framing services for original artwork, prints, and other memorabilia. With roughly 2,000 frames and hundreds of mats to choose from, mounted and framed pictures under glass start at $29.95 for an 11" x 14" frame, $45.95 for 16" x 20", $69.95 for 24" x 36", and $74.95 for 32" x 40". Prices can increase if you opt for higher-quality wood frames, which many customers choose to enhance velvet portraits of Courtney Love unearthed from the basement of the Louvre. Available mats range from paper and museum-grade conservation material to hand-wrapped fabrics. Frame Center's experienced staff also frames shadowboxed objects, photo portraits, and diplomas ($100+), as well as needlepoint or cross-stitch pieces ($70+). Although you can always nail art projects onto a refrigerator door, a wall display offers a longer-lasting opportunity to display your children's illustrations ($24.95+) of Hannah Montana clones playing poker.
With more than 60 years of combined rug-cutting experience, La Danse Cleveland's co-owners, Esther Rehm-Cohen and Tim Brown, have helped untold numbers of students twirl, hop, and belly slide across the dance floor. Certified as a ballroom instructor in 1981, Esther has won national awards for her teaching skills and has had the distinct honor of training couples who have gone on to rank in competitions. She garnered the position of head coach of the Case Western Reserve University ballroom team before fate's two-step led her to a partnership with Tim to run La Danse Cleveland's ample 6,000-square-foot studio. Boasting a background that includes competition in professional arenas as well as work as a dancing judge and a choreographer, co-owner Tim delights in crafting group classes and private lessons that excite and challenge students.
Included on the studio's roster of lessons are styles from Viennese waltz to nightclub two-step, along with sessions tailored specifically to children and to adult fitness goals. In classes and dance parties open to the public, students and social dancers alike rendezvous with Esther, Tim, and their impressive stable of instructors, whose resumés include stints with such world-class companies as the Boston Ballet and Gene Kelly's gutter-cleaning company.

Samsung goes big and small in Barcelona
BARCELONA, Spain--Samsung usually arrives at a trade show with all guns blazing and Mobile World Congress was no exception. Not only did the company show off its new Galaxy Tab 10.1 and Galaxy S II, but also it displayed some handsets it had announced previously. And these devices came in all sizes.
On the larger side is the Samsung Galaxy S 4G, which T-Mobile and Sammy revealed last month. With a 4-inch Super AMOLED touch screen and a slim rectangular shape, it looks very much like the earlier Samsung Vibrant. It certainly was pretty, but it felt rather fragile. … Read more

How do you set the Web browser that OpenOffice uses?
I got a document in the e-mail today from an organization at school. At the bottom was a link to their Web page, which I clicked to open the page in a browser. But the browser that came up was links, in a terminal! I'd prefer not to use links when in a GUI environment, but I couldn't find a way to set the default Web browser for OOo (version 2.0.4, if it matters). I ran through all the dialogs in Tools->Options, but didn't see an option for a Web browser (though there is one for a mail client). Googling didn't reveal anything either. Does anyone know how to change this setting?

I did some looking around and it appears that it is indeed your default browser. I read somewhere that if it doesn't work after changing it in the control center, check to make sure the env variable BROWSER is set correctly.

4.48/5 rDev +12.6%
look: 3.75 | smell: 4.25 | taste: 4.75 | feel: 4.5 | overall: 4.25
Poured from bottle into a pint glass
Appearance – The beer pours a cola brown color with a huge light brown head. The head has a good level of retention, very slowly fading and leaving behind a great level of streaky lace on the sides of the glass.
Smell – The aroma is a dark, boozy dunkelweizen like smell. It is heaviest of a wheaty and yeasty smell with a good dose of darker fruits of cherry, plum, and raisin. With these aromas there is also a nice spice profile with smells of clove and cardamom both there as well. Along with these more common dunkelweizen aromas comes some stronger smells of alcohol well as a bit of a toffee like aroma. The mix of smells is quite nice and overall has a very warming and welcoming aroma.
Taste –The taste begins massively sweet with tons of darker fruit flavors. Cherry is the biggest, but other flavors of plum and raisin are there as well. Along with the fruit are some wheat flavors, some spice of clove, as well as a brown bread like flavor. These flavors present upfront remain relatively constant in strength throughout the taste, creating a nice base flavor for the brew. Toward the middle, yeasty flavors really start coming to fruition along with a boozy alcohol taste. The booziness gets even more pronounced as the taste moves on, along with the spice flavors actually getting a bit stronger as well. Toward the very end, some decently potent light colored fruit flavors of apple and pear come to the tongue, adding even more sweetness to the flavor. In the end, with all the fruit, malty, yeasty and spiced flavors that are in the taste, one is left with a big and thick, warming, and sweet dunkelweizen like flavor to linger on the tongue.
Mouthfeel –The body of the beer is quite thick and chewy with a carbonation level that is on the lower side. The thick and chewy nature is fantastic for all the malty, wheaty, and sweet tastes of the beer and when coupled with the warming boozy taste and lower carbonation level, makes for a nice slow sipper, just what this 10 % weizen eisenbock should be.
Overall – A very enjoyable big brew. Nice and sweet with tons of darker fruit, boozy, and wheaty flavors. Perfect as a nice slow sipper on a cool fall/winter day. Very enjoyable.

3.85/5 rDev -3.3%
look: 4.25 | smell: 4 | taste: 3.75 | feel: 3.5 | overall: 4
Poured from a bottle into a Brewers Art goblet with a moderately aggressive hand. No date on the bottle. Sweet swing-top. The first eisbock that I can remember having - don't see these very often...
A: Very dark copper-red with slight haziness. 1 finger of tight off-white head. Decent retention. Light lacing. Quite pretty.
S: Sweet, dark fruit, raisins, cherry cough drops. More subtle elements of wheat - banana, slight clove. Solid.
T: Rather sweet and malty to start with a gradual transition into roasted notes and a dark chocolate-like bitterness. Very little hop to speak of. Semi-dry finish. Alcohol is present and consistent with 10% ABV. A bit medicinal when all is said and done, but good.
M: Lower carbonation with a fairly full body. A little bit sticky and syrupy, but not a major detractor.
O: My first eisbock. Pretty tasty I'd say. I'll have to seek out others. Gordon Biersch seems to perform well with the traditional German styles. Admittedly, I didn't get a whole lot of wheat characteristics, but as a ramped-up doppelbock, this does a pretty good job.

Appearance: Dark chestnut; cloudy; small head; dissipates quickly
Aroma: Bavarian yeast smells of cloves/banana; malty; figs
Taste: Malty, creamy upfront with cloves, banana and hop bite; warming alcohol in the mid; finishes with dried fruits, hops and spices; well balanced and delicious
Remarks: Did not score A, T, S, M at that time; disregard those scores

3.96/5 rDev -0.5%
look: 4.25 | smell: 3.75 | taste: 4 | feel: 4 | overall: 4
Rich red color, so rich that it appears brown at first glance, but remains slightly transparent around the edges. Fluffy white and yellow foam collects atop the glass and likes to remain there through the duration of the consumption.
Smell is a bit deceptive. Most notable aroma is a caramel and raisin like malt, but the wheat gives off a tripel-like hints.
For an unfiltered wheat beer, the flavor gives off a lot of Belgian-style flare moreso than any hint of German influence. Usually German weisse beers are milder in ABV and have a cleaner mouthfeel. That being said, it's a wonderful full-flavored beer, and I like it whatever genre of beer they want to classify it as.

3.99/5 rDev +0.3%
look: 3.75 | smell: 4 | taste: 4 | feel: 4 | overall: 4
Poured from a 750 ml bottle with a stopper into an Aventinus glass. Looks good. Clear mahogany color with reddish highlights when held to the light. Small tan head with good retention, light lacing on the glass.
Smell is mostly malty with dark fruit. Fairly pronounced and pleasant.
Tastes good. Wheat bitterness, lemon zest and a touch of hefeweizen bananas and cloves. There is als some heavier Belgian Strong Dark Ale characteristics like candi sugar, dark fruit (plums and raisins).
Mouthfeel is rich and smooth. Not much alcohol presence. On a hot day you might be tempted to slam this one down because it don't seem that potent.
A good one from Gordon Biersch. I would drink this one again!!

look: 4 | smell: 4 | taste: 4.5 | feel: 4.5 | overall: 4.5
Served at 40 degrees, poured from a 750 ml bottle into a pint glass.
A - Deep ruby-red, relatively clear. Quite a nice visual presentation. Lots of lacing on the glass as the moderate head falls off.
S - Raisins, prunes, umami, some Belgian yeast notes. Very little hops.
T - Luxurious; rich notes of raisins, stone fruit, maybe some winey (Belgian candy sugar) flavors, a little sweetness. Some herbal, earthy, spicy hop flavors but mostly overwhelmed by the darker flavors. Moderate bitterness.
M - Hearty texture. Well above average body.
O - This is really a great beer. At 10% ABV it's not something I'd drink more than one of in a session, but then again, with the robustness of the flavors present you probably wouldn't want to anyway. It's definitely an experience in its own right. Don't "pair" it with anything - it deserves a platform of its own.

look: 4 | smell: 4 | taste: 4 | feel: 4 | overall: 4
A - Pours a dark ruby-black with a thin finger of frothy off-white head. The head fades fairly quickly leaving behind some light lacing.
S - Aroma is a mix of wheat, banana, clove, other yeast smells, dark fruits, spices, and some booze.
T - Starts off with some wheat and dark malt flavors with some banana and spices. Through the middle, stronger banana flavor comes through with some clove, other yeast flavors and some dark fruity esters. The finish is mix of wheat, dark malts, banana, clove, dark fruit, and a bit of booze.
M - Medium-full bodied with moderate carbonation. Feels smooth with a sweet and warming finish.
D - Very drinkable. Good overall balance with good malt and yeast balance.
