text: Baking Tips For French Macarons Sweet Success: 10 Tips For Baking the Perfect Macaron by Sara Yoo 2/13/13 23 Reactions 280 Shares Print 182 65 20 13 0 With their vibrant colors and lacy frills, dainty, crisp-crusted French macarons are the perfect Valentine's Day baking project. But these lovely little delicacies are temperamental enough to stump even the most accomplished chefs. Even if you follow a detailed recipe down to the letter, a batch of macarons can go very wrong very quickly. Thanks to humidity, an unreliable oven temperature gauge, or an overly enthusiastic stirring hand, you may find yourself facing macaron-ageddon rather than baking bliss. But before you throw in the tea towel, we've assembled a few tips to solve your sugary conundrums. Use Aged Egg Whites What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 Aging the egg whites dehydrates them, resulting in a firmer, more stable meringue. Place your egg whites in a plastic wrap-covered, nonporous bowl, and poke a few holes in the plastic with a toothpick. Leave the bowl in the refrigerator for up to three days. Be sure to bring the egg whites back to room temperature before using. 1 / 10 Use the Freshest Ingredients What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 A recipe calling for aged eggs does not mean that you should use eggs past their expiration date! Buy only the freshest ingredients including almond meal: old almond meal causes a macaron to lose its glossy luster. Source: Flickr User woodleywonderworks 2 / 10 Back to the Grind What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 Your almond meal should be very finely ground so that it fits through a mesh sieve. If you're using packaged almond meal that appears too coarse to sift, give it a good grind in a food processor to break apart any larger pieces. 3 / 10 Gel With Your Color What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 Liquid food coloring can alter the texture of your macarons, making your batter too runny. I use gel color and add it while whipping the meringue. Don't be afraid to use a little too much: incorporating the almond meal mixture slightly diminishes the potency of the color. 4 / 10 Don't Sweat the Technique What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 Every baker has an opinion about the best way to create the perfect macaron batter, a process known as macaronnage. The idea is to press out just enough air from the batter so that it runs off your spatula thickly, slowly, but consistently. I like to gently fold the dry ingredients into the meringue, scooping from the sides, and then "punch" the center of the batter with my spatula. Others prefer pressing the batter into the side of the bowl. Find what works best for you. 6 / 10 Let Dry What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 If you find that the tops of your macarons are cracking in the oven, allow your piped macarons ample time to dry with the next batch. This can take upwards of 30 minutes to an hour, depending on the humidity of the room. You'll know they are adequately dried when you dab the tops with your finger and nothing sticks. 6 / 10 Banish Humidity What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 I learned this the hard way when one day I couldn't get my macarons to fully dry and I realized that it had just started raining that morning. If it's very humid, use a dehumidifier or wait to bake on a not-so-muggy day. Source: Flickr User teresaphillips1965 7 / 10 Hot and Bothered What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 Forgo the unreliable temperature gauge in your oven and get a trusty oven thermometer instead. 8 / 10 A Crackling Shame What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 If you sufficiently dry your piped macarons but find that they still crack while baking, your oven may be trapping too much humidity. Try using a wooden spoon handle to prop open the oven door just a smidge for the first two minutes of baking. Source: Flickr User Rubber Dragon 9 / 10 Practice! What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 No one gets it right the first time around. With so many variables, you will need to find the equation that works best for you, your kitchen, and your oven. Get ready for a baking adventure, but when you create the perfect, airy-light macaron, it will all be worth it! 11 / 10 182 65 20 13 0 Back to Homepage Comments Read More Cooking BasicsMacaronsValentine's DayCooking TipsBaking baking 15 Unconventional Cupcake Recipes 1 day ago Bread Winner: The Easiest Loaf You'll Ever Bake 4 days ago Get Your Cheesecake Fix Without the Fuss 1 week ago 16 Irresistible S'mores-Inspired Treats 1 week ago Eat Your Feelings With Cloud Cookies Based on The Fault in Our Stars 1 week ago 15 Fruit Crumbles For Your Tummy Grumbles 1 week ago cooking tips Just Grill It! 6 Unexpected Foods to Throw on the 'Cue 18 hours ago How to Peel Tomatoes, in Pictures 2 days ago A Surefire Way to Determine How Much Heat a Jalapeño Is Packing 3 days ago How to Peel Peaches Without Making a Huge Mess 6 days ago How to Pack a Perfect Mason Jar Salad 1 week ago 3 Stunning Ways to Dress Up a Store-Bought Cake 1 week ago Valentine's Day Stop — You're Washing Your Lingerie All Wrong! 4 days ago 85 Types of Kisses Everyone Should Experience at Least Once 7/21 All the Adorably Geeky Inspiration Your Engagement Photos Need 7/11 Embrace Your Foxy Side With This Fresh Take on Boudoir 6/10 Lock Your Love, and Throw Away the Key 6/09 6 Apps For a Long-Distance Romance 5/21 Cooking Basics This Watermelon Shark Will Make Your Jaw Drop 19 hours ago How to Peel Tomatoes, in Pictures 2 days ago A Surefire Way to Determine How Much Heat a Jalapeño Is Packing 3 days ago Spaghetti Aglio, Olio, e Peperoncino 3 days ago The Only Way to Know When Grilled Meat Is Done 5 days ago How to Peel Peaches Without Making a Huge Mess 6 days ago Get a Personalized Living Newsletter!

Why Exercise Won't Make You Thin
A recent article published by TIME Magazine has sparked controversy nationwide. Author John Cloud writes on the touchy subject of exercise and weight loss. Cloud proclaims that exercise won't make you thin. There is always the conceived idea that if you want to lose weight all you need to do is exercise. But how many of you exercise relentlessly everyday, yet the scale never seems to budge, and your pants still seem to feel a little too tight? With more than 45 million Americans with gym memberships, it is interesting that obesity is still on the rise, and the average weight of both men and women has increased significantly. Cloud states "people who regularly exercise are at significantly lower risk for all manner of diseases — those of the heart in particular. They less often develop cancer, diabetes and many other illnesses. But the past few years of obesity research show that the role of exercise in weight loss has been wildly overstated." While exercise does increase calorie burn, which is essential for weight loss, exercise also stimulates hunger. More often than not this leads to over-eating and over-indulgence. One is more likely to overestimate the number of calories burned in a workout, which then leads to over eating. Exercise has also been shown to increase cravings for sugary foods.
So what do you think? Stop exercising with the hopes of seeing weight loss? While that result is even more unlikely, read Cloud's entire article for a more in-depth discussion. His article examines the exercise to lose weight obsession and looks at multiple weight loss studies. I feel exercise has far too many health benefits aside from just maintaining or reaching a healthy weight, but read on and decide for yourself. Will you turn from the treadmill to the couch or choose to lace up?

A McCracken County Humane Society volunteer is facing theft charges.
Erika M. Bellamy, 33, of Paducah was charged with receiving stolen property under $500.
According to Sgt. Darrin Frommeyer, the humane society had reported several cash thefts totaling around $350.
An employee contacted detectives on Saturday morning about $170 missing from the building. Detectives responded to the humane society and reviewed surveillance video.
Erika Bellamy, a Kentucky Transitional Assistance Program (KTAP) volunteer, was allegedly seen on the video taking the money.
When detectives confronted Bellamy, they say $170 was recovered. Bellamy also allegedly admitted to being involved in the two previous thefts.
Bellamy was taken to the McCracken County Regional Jail.
The sheriff's office says additional theft charges are pending.

This line provides a nice alternative to the other hard lines on this wall, as it lacks a tedious slab section. Begin on the two best holds on the route and the business begins. Funk your way through a series of slopers and side pulls for the first four bolts (roughly 12b). Then enter the desperate roof sequence. Small shallow pockets couple with a well placed knee scum allow you to gain a small side pull just above the roof (13ish). Extremely delicate half pad crimps for the next two bolts keeps you in doubt till you clip the anchor.

Recommended Reading: Doc and Beau
I meant to link to this earlier, but the real world has a nasty habit of making blogging difficult sometimes. Expat staffer Doc Harper penned an excellent column for ArkansasSports360.com in which he argues that, with Missouri and Texas A&M now in the fold, the SEC should expand its football conference season from eight games to nine. And over at the Arkansas Times, another Expat staffer, Beau Wilcox, notes that recent NCAA baseball rules changes shouldn't impede the 2012 Razorbacks. Excellent stuff from both Doc and Beau. Definitely check both of these posts out. We guarantee it will reduce your risk of developing scurvy by 17 percent.

On reaching the dhow, the Italian warship ITS Grecale gave the crew food and water. Then a dedicated technical team worked through the night to fix the mechanical engine failure. Despite their best efforts, the Italian warship team assessed that the engine was too badly damaged to repair at sea.
NATO offered to transfer the crew to the closest port, but they chose to stay with their vessel. Tahriri's crew said that after having assistance they felt safer and preferred to coordinate with their national authorities for further assistance. They expressed their appreciation for the assistance of the NATO warship.
The Italian warship ITS Grecale is remaining in the area to monitor the situation, ready to provide further assistance if required.
Background Information:

Pours a somewhar murky russett brown with an almost perfect light beige one finger clingy head atop leaving a full broken ring of lace as it settles oh so slowly.Fruit with a hint of sherry vinegar in the nose wich Iam not sure is a good thing but works here,wow it's fruity.Fruity and cakey on the palate with some cake notes,the finsih has some yeasty spice notes.The alcohol is kept in control pretty good and the palate is a fruit attack.I liked it and would buy again.

Thanks to bu11zeye for sharing this 33cl bottle. Bottled 6-24-10.
The beer pours a dark brown color with a tan head. The aroma is very heavy on the caramel malt and roasted malt, along with some dark fruit mixed in. The beer has no hops in the aroma and smells very sweet.
The flavor is heavy on the dark fruit, toffee, brown sugar, chocolate, molasses, roasted malt and some nuttyness. The alcohol is very well hidden for a beer that is more than 10 percent in alcohol. A very complex, very malty stout. Very drinkable considering the ABV.
Medium mouthfeel and medium carbonation. A very nice Belgian-inspired Stout from De Molen.

330ml bottle. "Beautiful & Ruthless", eh? There must be more to that...
This beer pours a clear, very dark ruby hue, with three fingers of foamy, puffy beige head, which leaves some nice hanging swaths of sudsy webbed lace around the glass as it evenly abates.
It smells of lightly toasted, kind of grainy malt, some musty ashy notes, middling earthy black fruit, a bit of dry nutty coffee, and soft leafy, weedy hops. The taste is much fruitier, and fuller than I was initially led to expect - caramel malt, enveloped in rounded dark, slightly sour drupe flesh, some further Fig Newtons essence, a twinge of green Belgian yeastiness, biscuity dark chocolate, oily roasted nuts, and mild earthy, still a wee bit ashy hops. The big ABV does a stellar job of staying on the down low.
The carbonation is a tad sprightly, but generally even and structurally sound, the body a sturdy medium-heavy weight, and pretty well smooth, with just a subtle metallic burp from the booze barbarian at the gate. It finishes on the sweet side, the fruity malt flexing it muscles still, but hardly overdoing it with the latent floral, sassy hops having a thing or two to say in the matter.
Well, a decent stroke at one of my favourite styles, and with a north of 10%, integrated ABV to boot, quite drinkable. Now I can see my lost in translation error at the outset - this is, more or less, one of the Bold and the Beautiful, Dutch version.

Bottle at Bar Volo(bottled May 26, 2011). Substantive bitterness, very coffee like bitterness. The aroma is very roast. Black bodied. Lacey. A long bitter finish.Average mouthfeel, and a small amount of chocolate malt. More of an imperial stout. Decent drinkability, although something I may not reach for again. A bomber is a lot for three people.Slightly drying aftertaste.

11.2oz. Te usual ridiculous Belgian pour, blackish brown with the overflowing the glass cream colored head. Someone explain to me again why this is good? Anyways, looks how it should. Nice heavy lacing.
Aroma, loads of fig, brown sugar, prune and molasses.
Taste, baked brown sugar, plum up front pretty sweet. More toasted notes, malt and chestnut. Little bit of dark chocolate in there too. A nice earthy finish, peat, herbal hops, a slight oaky char. Pretty nice.
Medium body, but lively carbonation keeps it pretty easy to drink. Still coats pretty well. Really only a faint warming.
This was very nice, and much better than the De Molen attempts at stouts and porters.

Pours brown with a stupidly large head, crazily over-carbed.
Nose shows chocolate fudge, raisins, faint roasted malt, cocoa, spicy hops, soft booze and golden syrup. Amazing.
Very similar flavours, more chocolate, raisins, booze and golden syrup. The roasted malt is more noticeable here.
Thick, syrupy body; a little too much.

Bottle: Poured a deep cloudy brown color ale with a nice medium size foamy head with good retention and some good lacing. Aroma consists of sweet Belgian-style malt with notes of dry fruits and light candy notes. Taste is also a nice mix between some semi-sweet malt notes with some nice candy-like ester and some dry raisins and plums notes. Body is full with great carbonation and no apparent alcohol. Very nice beer to enjoy by the fireside on a cold winter night.

Poured into a Fremont small snifter. Pours opaque black with a twon finger tan head with good retention and pillowy lacing. Aroma of molasses, dark toasted malt and more molasses. Flavor is sweet dark dried fruit, mainly dates and raisins, marizpan, slightly nutty and toasty. Sweet dark fruit finish with hints of chocolate, dark malt and tannins. Medium bodied with pleasant peppery carbonation. A quite nice Belgian dark, a bit on the sweet side, but rich dark flavors that support the sweetness. Warming, but the ABV is well covered. The most molasses I've ever encountered in an ale aroma. Molasses is not a major element of the flavor, however. The pour lead me to think I was pouring a dark stout and the flavor somewhat surprised me. Even translated, but name doesn't give anything away. I enjoyed this, but its sweetness makes it kind of a dessert sipper. Nice for a cool, dark evening.

Brewed 25 march 2011, bottled 5 may 2011, in a 33 cl bottle.
Dark brown colour, light brown head. This beer is very lively from the bottle. It tries to escape from it, has a huge head, so it's not easy to get the stuff in the glass.
Once you do, it's got nice aroma and flavour: dark roasted malts, nutts, coffee, some chocolate. Dark fruits like raisins, figs. Some fresh berry in the smell too.
Full flavoured bittersweetness all over.
Similar to Hel & Verdoemenis, from the same brewery, in all aspects of the beer.
''Beauty and Mercyless'' spells ''Hell and Damnation''.
I knew it.

Drank from my Duvel Tulip
A - Pours a quad like appearance with a huge beige head that reduces to a film very slowly.
S - Aromas of small coffee and roasted malt.
T - Plenty of coffee present up front tha gives way to a very smooth caramel flavour. Some nice dark fruits in the flavour and finishes in quite a spicey way.
M - Slightly over carbonated and fullish body.
O - A very drinkable RIS

Pours a very dark brown, not quite opaque. A 4 finger tan head recedes becoming chunky as it goes, leaving a bit of thick, sticky lacing. and a mound of foam.
Very fruity with both dark dried fruit and grapes and some faint chocolate as well.
Very sweet!. A dessert beer? A light chocolatey bitterness, but there's also some significant dark toasted malt. Nice! Very winey, but more substantial, like a port or sherry. Light spice.
Moderatly full body, wih a light bite on the tongue, and a bit of warming in the throat. Smooth, the alcohol is barely noticable. Moderately sticky.
Very easy to drink considering the ABV. I could have downed three of these in a flash, except that the alcohol would have soon overtaken me. Elegant. Decadent.

Enjoyed on 3/12/11 in a Pint glass. Pure black, dark amber lights on sides. Foam dense, coffe&milk color neither much creamy nor persistent as expected. No lacing shown. Complex aroma, toasted notes & dry nuts. Intense toasted malt & cocoa hints hidden by dry bitterness & excesive carbonation. Little fat in mouth. I felt quite dissapointed in the overall, ´cause if a Brw knows how to perform a perfect Russian... for sure De Molen does, unfortunately not in Mooi case.

12oz bottle purchased for $5.99 at Calandro's in Baton Rouge, LA, poured into tulip. Pours a deep brown with awesome, perfect creamy off white head. Great dried fruit and boozey chocolate aromas. Wow...awesome chocolate, dried fruit, malty flavor with a hint of bitter hop. Some booze is present but not as much as I expected. So smooth and so creamy. The beer is like silk. This brew has one of the best "mouthfeel" ive ever had, especially one with such a high abv. This is a great brew...somewhat different than the normal Strong Dark, I think its less "spice" character than I normally attribute to the style, but its just so good. Go have one if you see it!

Town Square
Albertos - No Bueno!
Original post made by Ty-Town on Aug 28, 2007
on Aug 29, 2007 at 10:08 am
I can't understand why Alberto's keeps getting voted as best Mexican place in Pleasanton time and time again. The only idea I have is that Pleasanton has been populated by a bunch of recent East Coast transplants who don't know any better when it comes to Mexican food. My family, long time residents of Pleasanton, never really ate there so to be fair my husband and I tried it out once two years ago. The dining area was loud and the food was bland. It reminded me of eating Mexican in Iowa once. It is Mexican food for white Americans! Now I understand why we never ate there.

Best of Pleasanton? Thats a joke. People need to try Casa Orozco in Livermore or Dublin or if you want to stay loyal to Pleasanton try Mexico Lindo or if you dont care go to Baja Fresh, it's a lot cheaper!
on Aug 29, 2007 at 8:34 pm
I hear El Balazo is good but I haven't had the opportunity to eat there yet.

I predict major social shifts in 2014. And a lot more vegans
Subscriber content preview. or Sign In
Let the simpletons over at the International Monetary Fund predict that in 2014 inflation will drop below GDP growth in sub-Saharan Africa. I could do that too if I wanted to get some graduate degrees in GDP, inflation and sub-Saharan Africa. But instead of just estimating the direction of known variables, I'm going to predict great philosophical shifts. Will they definitely happen in the next 12 months? Yes. I can say that with confidence since I know that there's a 100% chance you will forget everything in this column long before the end of the year.
In 2014 some socially acceptable customs will indubitably soon gross us out, and the switch can happen as quickly as it did with Miley Cyrus in 2013.

The core idea behind HTML5, the latest proposed version of the Web's foundation markup language, is to make all resources, not just text and links, widely and uniformly usable across all platforms. Well, that was the theory. In practice, things aren't going to change that much from today's Web, with its reliance on proprietary media formats and methods.
In the 20 years since HTML appeared, companies -- including Adobe with Flash, Microsoft with Silverlight and Apple with QuickTime -- have added their own proprietary media formats to the Web. In addition, other businesses -- such as Google with Gears and Oracle /Sun with JavaFX -- have created technologies for the Web that make it possible to create offline and user-side-based Web applications. This is all fine, but these proprietary formats and application platforms get in the way of the universal use vision for the Web.
[ InfoWorld's Neil McAllister explains what to expect from HTML5. | Discover what's new in business applications with InfoWorld's Technology: Applications newsletter and Killer Apps blog. ]
The W3C's (World Wide Web Consortium) plan was to answer these proprietary approaches with HTML 5. This open standard, yet to be fully approved, takes HTML from simply describing the basics of a text-based Web to one that includes specifications for presenting animations, audio, mathematical equations, offline storage and applications, typefaces, and video. In short, HTML 5 is meant to incorporate all the functionality that Web users now expect from proprietary add-ons.
As Ian Hickson, one of the editors of the HTML5 standard, has said, "One of HTML5's goals is to move the Web away from proprietary technologies such as Flash, Silverlight, and JavaFX." At the same time, according to Tim Berners-Lee, the founder of the Web and director of the W3C, "Yes, HTML5 is still a markup language for Web pages, but the really big shift that's happening here -- and, you could argue, what's actually driving the fancy features -- is the shift to the Web becoming a client-side computing platform." As for each of the multiple elements that are now being incorporated into HTML5, Berners-Lee continued, "We've had the pieces for a while," and bringing them together in HTML5 "multiplies the power of each one."

The Republic Sanitation workers started their strike on Monday. Some people knew about the strike, but not about the possible severe weather. With cleanup crews sitting out, clean streets may be a different story on Wednesday.
MORE: Tornado risk follows record warmth in central US
Mike Wiggins says he didn't expect Mother Nature to blow through during the Republic Sanitation worker strike, "I feel sad it happens with everybody but I just never thought about the storm coming in too, that's comical."
Forecasters expect thunderstorms and possible tornados Tuesday night. Before the severe weather, wind gusts could reach 40 miles per hour.
Driving through Germantown, it's easy to spot bins on standby for pickup. Since Monday's strike, 250,000 customers in Shelby County and North Mississippi are without trash pickup.
The 180 workers on strike hope their latest effort will inch them closer towards better pension and pay. Republic Sanitation says the strike won't prevent trash pick-up Wednesday, but by then the twister may have struck too.
Republic Sanitation hopes to hammer out a deal with the workers Thursday.

PFW associate editor Kevin Fishbain presents a running meter that indicates the Patriots' top five MVP candidates up through their most recent game.
1. QB Tom Brady: After completing 6-of-16 passing for 35 yards and one touchdown in the first half, Brady finally found his rhythm after halftime, at one point completing 10 consecutive passes. He was 13-of-16 passing for 124 yards in the second half. It was not Brady's best game and he was visibly frustrated at times, also pressured more than he has been this season, but he is still the most consistent MVP candidate for the Pats.
2. TE Aaron Hernandez: The rookie is a monster in between the 20s for Brady, but has yet to find the endzone. Hernandez led the Pats in receiving again on Sunday, with five catches for 54 yards on eight targets. On the season, Hernandez leads the Pats with 355 receiving yards and is second amongst all rookies. Fellow rookie TE Rob Gronkowski has become Brady's red-zone target, though, with three TD grabs.
3. ILB Jerod Mayo: Mayo paced the Patriots again with 11 tackles and a fumble recovery. He leads the team and the league with 72 tackles on the season. Mayo's linebacking corps is coming together as they held the Chargers to just 38 rushing yards on 19 carries — a paltry two yards per carry.
4. WR Wes Welker: Welker still leads the team with 37 receptions after catching 4-25 against the Chargers. We can give the Chargers' top-ranked pass defense some credit, but Welker has been slowed since Randy Moss left New England. He is also not at 100 percent after offseason knee surgery. Through the first six games in 2008, Welker had 47 receptions, and through his first six games in 2009 (he missed Weeks Two and Three), he had 55 receptions.
5. RB BenJarvus Green-Ellis: The "Law Firm" had a tough day against the Chargers' "D" on Sunday with just 24 yards on 11 carries, but he did find the endzone for his team-leading fourth TD of the season. He has 259 yards rushing this season but is gradually losing carries to RB-WR Danny Woodhead, who is a better pass catcher than Green-Ellis and is seeing more and more offensive snaps.

Pickup driver was "dizzy" prior to Gering train collision
A Scottsbluff man escaped serious injury Tuesday morning after he drove his pickup into a westbound Union Pacific coal train at the 10th Street crossing in Gering.
Gering Police say it appears 60 year old Michael Green became disoriented as he was traveling north on 10th Street and went around the gate arms at the crossing and drove into one of the empty coal cars on the moving train.
The front end of the vehicle received heavy damage but Green was not injured, although his wife did respond to the location and took him to Regional West Medical Center as a precaution. It is not known what caused Green to be disoriented, although Police say he indicated he "was dizzy" just prior to the accident.
The accident happened shortly before 9 a.m. The crossing arms at the 10th Street crossing were not damaged, but several Gering crossings were blocked for about an hour and a half until a new train crew could respond and take over operations.

SWINDON TOWN: Barker happy to team up with old friends
4:00pm Thursday 9th January 2014 in Sport By Sam Morshead
GEORGE Barker was drawn to the County Ground by the possibility of regular first-team football and the chance to team up with old friends.
Barker, who signed an 18-month contract with Swindon Town on Tuesday, knows several of the Robins' squad and staff from his time at Brighton & Hove Albion and is excited about the prospect of resurrecting his career in Wiltshire.
The 22-year-old is close friends with Grant Hall, the on-loan Spurs defender, and assistant coach Luke Williams and sees Swindon as the perfect place to get the gametime he craves.
"I knew a bit about the club before I came here, it's obviously got quite a good set-up and I can see the average age is quite young which is good for myself. I'm really pleased with what I've seen so far," he told the local media this lunchtime.
"All the staff have been really good, all the players have been really welcoming so I'm really pleased with it.
"I've been in recent contact with Luke and a few of the players. Ever since Luke went from Brighton I've spoken to him on a regular basis and he'd say to me 'what do you think about coming to Swindon'.
"I jumped at the chance to come here because the main thing I wanted to do was play games and I wasn't doing that at Brighton so it'll be a good chance.
"I was good friends with Grant at Brighton so to be around him again is good and there are a few Tottenham boys on loan. Because it's such a young squad it's good."
Barker has been signed to fill the void left by Nicky Ajose upon the striker's return to parent club Peterborough but he's not daunted by the task of replacing Town's top scorer.
"I'm here to give 100 per cent in whatever I do - training, games, whatever I do. The main thing is to play games. If I get the chance I'm going to take it with both hands," he said.
"I've seen Nicky Ajose do well here, Range (Nile Ranger) has done well here so I'm just coming here to add something different to the team. I'm not really an out and out striker, I'm an attacking midfielder playing off the frontman.
"I've come here to do what I do best and that's score goals and create goals and that's the aim."

Sizzling grills and crazy costumes filled the streets of Minocqua on Saturday.
"This is probably one of the biggest events that we have in the fall," said Minocqua Chamber of Commerce Executive Director Kim Baltus.
Beef-A-Rama is a celebration of food and fall.
"The event is really an opportunity, it began as an opportunity for us to thank all of our summer guests for spending time in the Northwoods," said Baltus.
It's become a destination, as thousands of people headed to Downtown Minocqua for the true "Beef-A-Rama" experience.
"It's comical you know, everybody dressing up and you know, carrying their rump roast in downtown Minocqua," said Patrick Richardson.
Organizers said this is the biggest crowd yet and they have high hopes for sales.
"To sell 4,000 sandwiches and to sell out of all of our Beef-A-Rama attire," said Baltus.
Sandwiches sold fast and people at the event said they didn't mind waiting in line for a taste.
"The merchants are competing for it, so it's like the best rump roast you can have," said Elizabeth Watson.
City leaders said Beef-A-Rama provides a big boost to the area economy.
"This gives another shot in the arm to the economy in the Northwoods and allows people to spend time enjoying themselves at a lovely fall festival," said Baltus.
Whether manning the grill or wearing a costume, everyone agreed, the event was all about the beef.
"A celebration of beef," said Watson.
Certainly a tasty celebration to end the summer season in the Northwoods.
Organizers said they expected about 15,000 people to attend this year's Beef-A-Rama event.
A big name retailer has its eyes on a spot in Wausau, according to city council members.
To one Portage County woman, the Ice Bucket Challenge hits a little closer to home.

The G 650 GS continues the success story of BMW Motorrad's single cylinder engines in impressive fashion - with a solid output of 48 horsepower at 6,500 rpm and a maximum torque of 44 foot pounds at 5,000 rpm. The bike offers absolutely sensational fuel consumption levels, 74 miles per gallon, at a constant 55 miles per hour.
The ride feel on the G 650 GS is thrilling, too - wherever you're going. Whether on the road or over rough terrain - the reliable, tried-and-tested chassis with central spring strut on the swinging fork ensures crisp handling. Membership of the enduro family is highlighted in this new machine with the upright seating position and an impressive 6.7 inches�of spring travel at the front with 5.5 inches at the rear. The moderate standard seat height of 30.7 inches�and the lowered suspension option make this experience accessible to virtually anyone.
The G 650 GS is robust, powerful and yet still extremely light, weighing just 430�pounds (with a full tank). With its low fuel consumption and simple handling, it is not just ideal for beginning motorcyclists. Its slim, athletic stature in a youthful and typically enduro-style design stands for uncomplicated riding pleasure and pure fun.
Accessories for the BMW enduro include comfortable hand protectors, aluminum sump guard, a high windshield and practical Vario cases. The options make the machine a touch safer still: a center stand makes for improved stability, the heated grips provide a more solid grasp and ABS prevents the wheels from locking.With the G 650 GS you will simply have fun. So just get on and off you go: why not?

Batman Costume
Batman & Robin are without doubt the most famous superhero combination and are a popular for fancy dress. We have traditionan Batman Costumes, Sexy Batgirl & Robin Costumes and Kids Batman Costumes. If you fancy dressing up as a Villain? Then check out out great choice of Joker Costumes too.
He was created more than 70 years ago, but the fictional comic character of Batman undoubtedly remains as popular as ever.
Initially debuting in DC's Detective Comics in May 1939, Batman would see many changes to his personality and traits throughout the years.
In his early days, he was commonly seen solving petty crimes with his eager accomplice Dick Greyson, or Robin, as he was more commonly known. Nowadays, he's foiling complex criminal schemes, thwarting the plans of dangerous baddies and generally being moody and mysterious. He's the perfect choice for a fancy dress party.
For a Batman costume, there's a wide range of outfits from which to pick. Go for the more muscle-bound version of the Caped Crusader with a buff muscle chest costume, or go for the more traditional look of the 60s TV series with a muscle-less getup. If you want to be more in-keeping with the dark, brooding character of the recent blockbuster films, go for a Dark Knight costume and really bring the outfit to life with a pair of Batman gauntlets.
And it's not just Batman himself that's joining the party; ladies can go for a sultry Batgirl costume or slip into a stylish Catwoman outfit. There's also the option to go for trusty sidekick Robin, or become a villain with Joker or Bane costumes.

The pour was decent enough, amber color with a few hints of copper sprinkled in throughout the glass. Nice carbonation could be seen coming up to the top of the glass through the good clarity. A smallish head of maybe a half an inch in height settled down to all but nothing after a few moments.
The aroma was nice as well, nothing earth shattering going on here for sure, but still decent enough. Light piney hops with a hint of a balanced, earthy grain in the middle. More of the same in the flavor, again nothing blowing my socks off here. Taste was a bit light for me, not so much watered down, well maybe actually. Started with some light hops that were just enough to perk my head up before they faded and were washed clean by a rather muted profile that just left me looking for something more to drink. Just did not have that kick I would like it to have, Crisp and clean, refreshing with a light body that did make it rather nice to drink.
Overall I would chalk this one down to nice, but forgettable. An average pale ale with a touch of hops that were too faint to really make a difference. Not the worst by any means, but don't think I would be at a loss if I did not have it again.

A sturdy looking brown, good viscosity. Head didn't form so well, but what was there had nice lacing and retention. Woody brown ale smell.
Taste, rich, smooth as advertised. Does what a brown ale is supposed to, just not my thing. Someone else could probably rave about the mellow complexity, mild qualities, but you know he's probably a pasty nerd. This one is a little more than average hopping.
Not bad, just expensive for my enjoyment level.

The following is a collective review from several tastings.
Appearance: One finger of rich, foamy, tan head sat perched atop a cloudy auburn body. Decent head retention, but hit-and-miss lacing: creamy, notch-like pattern one time; weak stringing smatterings another.
Smell: Cardamom, rum-like alcohol, real maple syrup, caramel and chocolate. The first time I had this, it smelled like straight Milk Duds. The second time I got lots of cardamom, maple, and other spices, though chocolate and caramel were still apparent. Each time the aroma was sweet and interesting. Very interesting. I even got hints of red currants and the occasional pecan. Very sweet and strong. I liked it, but I didn't get much hop character. There might - MIGHT - have been some citric hops lurking in the background, but that was it.
Taste: Not nearly as sweet as indicated by the smell. This taste was very nutty with a touch of caramel. Grassy hops and some mild spiciness (including a pinch of salt) rounded out each sip, and I got some mild chocolate undertones, too. The aftertaste was malt-focused each time, and on one occasion quite stale. Grassy, salty hops - tasted like a mix of Amarillo and Chinook - came through stronger in some bottles than others. Once again, this was interesting; but all-in-all it was just alright. Finished flat, boring, and even a little stale at times.
Mouthfeel: Creamy, nicely carbonated, malty, and chewy. Hops added some light bitterness that could be felt along the sides of the palate, but make no mistake: this beer is all about the malt. Finished boring and flat, and the aftertaste wasn't very good. Luckily, that aftertaste didn't linger for any longer than a couple of seconds. Meh.
Drinkability: I feel like this brown ale has a lot of potential, but as it stands it certainly needs improvement. I was very unimpressed with the finish, and it didn't have the balance I was looking for. Still, I'm not upset with my purchase. I'll gladly have another at a later date. A pretty effortless drink.

Slight hazy with some amber colors. Weak little head but ample carbonation.
Some grainy and nutty sweetness, but not really much complexity. Slight molassas and some whole-grain bread. A slight bitter citrus twang in the finish.
Decent drinkability and smooth mouthfeel. Overall a good beer, but forgettable.

The aroma has toffee, caramel, nuts and toasted malt. The appearance is rich amber brown with a medium head. The flavor has all the elements of the aroma plus a little fruit, wood, and coffee. There is more bitterness here than expected or should be for that matter. Thin palate. Overall it's good tasting but the taste profile is not like a Brown Ale should be.

A: Poured a dark amber when held up to the light with a light beige head that settled to a slight foamy layering.
S: bready with a nice nutty aroma (almonds), with a sweet dried fruitiness.
T: starts out with a nice smooth and light roastedness with some nutbread and sweet caramel/brown sugar. There was a nice nuttiness as well a spicy hoppiness.
M: light with a smooth texture, slightly creamy.
D: A light drinking brown making for a decent pub session drink.

12oz from the basement cooler.. I think it's from Cost Plus.. price tag says $1.40.. poured into my New Belgium tulip.
Off white head.. nice chesnut/lite walnut ... slightly hazy..minimal lacing.
Toasted malt and low caramel malts.. some vanilla.. a little bready.. reminds me of cookie dough.
Flavor is toasted and slight roasted.. low hop bitterness and a light bourbon finish.. better as it warms.. sorta like an amped up English brown. some cocoa and nuttiness as it approaches room temperature. Medium body and low but ever present carbonation.
I've always liked this beer and wish the Coop still carried it.. not overpowering in anyway, but still not watery.. A good session beer when you don't want either a malt or hop bomb.

Pours a copper body, hazy, with a sligh creamy head. The head left a touch of patchy foam on the sides of the glass. Smells and tastes of toasted malt and nuts, pleasing. This is a nice solid beer. Drinks easily and has some nice complexity too, not a wower, or a snoozer. Just a hint of hops in the back, citrusy, but it does not linger. The carbonation is appropriate, soft. The bitterness seems to come out a bit more toward the bottom of the glass. I drank this beer over about a half hour time period and did notice this as the beer warmed. I do like a nice malty beer, and this one fits the bill.

Appearance: Light brown in color, decent head retention and some lacing.
Smell: Mild aroma of hops and malts, nothing jumping out screaming at me but I wouldn't really expect it to with a brown ale.
Taste: Good balance on the hop and malts, the bitterness is just enough to balance the sweet somewhat caramel malt flavors.
Mouthfeel: Medium in body.
Drinkability: Sessionable, especially if you like a brown ale.
Overall not bad, worth a shot. I wasn't huge on it, but I wouldn't run away from it either, middle of the road for me.

This one poured into the glass lightly hazed and the color of rich dark caramel. The head began as light beige foam which fell to a thin cap. The lacing was spotty.
The smell was sweet roasted malts, faintly grassy hops and a mild nuttiness. The taste was very much in line with the smell. Mild hop bitterness brings a very nice balance to the mix.
A medium-light bodied brown ale with a gentle carbonation.
The appearance could have been a bit more impressive, but this is a very sessionable offering from North Coast. Well done in that respect.

Acme Brown Ale from North Coast Brewing...
A: Pours a clear, medium brown with a solid off white head and decsent retention.
S: Balanced aromas of hops and malt. Nothing stands out in particular, but a nice smell none the less.
T: Follows smell. Balanced between malt and hops. On target for an American Brown ale style. Good bitterness and slight sweeteness. Solid taste, but not exceptional.
M&D: Medium body and mouthfeel. Quite drinkable and good overall example of Amercian style brown ale. I would have this again.

Pours with a hazy, dark ruby color when held up to the light, otherwise it is a deep amber brown color. It is topped by a frothy, brown-tinged, tan colored head that quickly disappears to a wisp. Sweet caramelized malt notes great me up front, but quickly move to notes of toasted grain, nutty malt notes, and a touch of roasted grain character. There is some soft, yet sweet, fruit notes here as well; I get notes of figs and raisins that have been just lightly roasted.
The taste is lightly sweet, accentuating a fruitiness that again reminds me of figs, raisins and even a bit of sweet, concentrated plums. The finish has a nice low, at least relatively, hop bitterness to it as well as some lightly roasted grain astringency. This is definitely a light, quaffable brew. It does linger on in the finish though; remaining fruity, plus a touch bitter, and a definite notes of toasted grain.
Quite a nice easy drinking beer, again it is not aggressively flavored, but the flavors it does have are well integrated and make for a pleasing session brew.

In the glass this is a red colored ale more than a brown one. Weak head formation.
Smell is sweet and malty with a good amount of fruitiness. Fruitiness is mostly fig to my nose.
Taste is neutral and woody at the beginning. Fruitiness kicks in from the second sip onwards. Fruity like a British ale the roasted nature is rather minimal in this beer. Bitterness is also minimal.
Mouthfeel is OK.
Certainly an easy to drink ale but this isn't much more than average.

This brew by North Coast pours a nicely managed tan head that leaves behind plenty of lace. Brown to amber in color, medium carbonation.
Nice spicy hop presence in the smell, It lays down and takes a back seat the rest of the way. slightly roasted malts are soft on the palate and really give this beer its form. From start to finish this is a very delicate, easy drinker that is easily consumed. It doesn't have a "wow" factor, and to be perfectly fair that is exactly what I believe this beer is trying to be. Hops do make an appearance late just enough to give it a lasting twinge.
Notes: Another good showing from a damn fine brewer, and a welcomed addition to the stable. Want a nice easy drinker thats complex enough to keep your interest, this could be the one.

Pours a reddish amber color with a decent-sized head and a good amount of lacing. Smells strong with hops and a pine aroma. Taste is acidic and hoppy somewhat watered down for my taste. Not as sweet as most brown ales. Mouthfeel is somewhat bitter and unpleasent. Overall a decent ale that I could drink semi-regularly.

Surprisingly red for a brown ale. Transluscent dark amber, with a creamy two finger head and healthy carbonation. A creamy dolop of foam remained in the bottom of the glass after the last sip. Love that. Smells floral, piney. Taste is good--caramelly and hardly brown, lighter on hop taste than I expected from the aroma, mild. A slight note of darker roasted malts somewhere in there and gives it a little more complexity to what would otherwise be a straight ahead amber taste. Hops are here but speaking softly. Sweet yet balanced, this has mass appeal. Excellent mouthfeel, fills the mouth but a lighter carbonation keeps it from feeling too light or burning the tounge...perfect. Excellently drinkable. I'd go elsewhere for a more robust brown, but I may stock this now and again for a few of my newcastle-devotee friends. Superbly acessible and drinkable.

President Barack Obama is telling the nation's governors that "at some point we've got to do some governing," rather than "careening from manufactured crisis to manufactured crisis."
At a White House meeting today, he told the governors that the automatic spending cuts due to be triggered on Friday can be averted with "just a little bit of compromise."
Unless Congress acts, $85 billion in cuts will go into effect Friday. Speaking to the nation's governors, Obama says the impact of the cuts may not be felt immediately, but the uncertainty created is already having an effect on the economy.
The spending cuts have frustrated governors attending the National Governors Association meeting in Washington, who worry that it could threaten economic recovery in their states.
Gov. Bobby Jindal says he believes a deal can be reached but adds, "the president needs to show leadership." The Louisiana Republican accused the president of having "an insatiable appetite for new revenue."
Despite the looming deadline, there is no indication that the White House and Congress are negotiating. (AP)
Nevada Senator Harry Reid spoke on the Senate floor today about Sequestration. Below are his remarks as prepared for delivery.
The Senate has a great deal to accomplish this work period, including the long-delayed confirmation of former Senator Chuck Hagel to lead the Defense Department.
This week the Senate will also consider two plans to avert devastating, across-the-board cuts to military spending as well as domestic initiatives that keep American families and businesses strong. To give our economy a foundation for growth, Congress must replace these cuts – the so-called sequester – with a balanced approach to deficit reduction.
Senate Democrats would temporarily replace this harsh austerity with a combination of smart spending reductions and measures that close corporate tax loopholes, end wasteful subsidies and ask the wealthiest Americans to pay their fair share. And it would avoid harmful cuts that will hurt American families, harm military readiness and hinder our economic recovery.
Families and businesses in every state in the nation – in red states and blue states – are at risk because of these haphazard cuts. In the presiding officer's home state, Virginia, 170 teachers who work with disabled children could lose their jobs, thousands of kids will go without life-saving vaccines and 90,000 Pentagon employees will be furloughed.
In Nevada, 120 teachers could lose their jobs, local law enforcement agencies will lose essential funding to prevent and prosecute crime and thousands of Defense Department employees will be furloughed – losing wages that support their families and our state's economy.
Residents of the Republican Leader's home state would also suffer. Kentucky will lose federal funding that helps police catch and punish domestic abusers, buys meals for needy seniors and keeps at-risk children in Head Start programs. And more than 11,000 Kentuckians who work for the Defense Department will be furloughed.
Nationwide, sequester cuts will cost more than 750,000 jobs. More than 70,000 little boys and girls will be kicked off Head Start. Meat inspectors, air traffic controllers, FBI officers and border patrol agents will be furloughed. Small businesses – which create two-thirds of all new jobs in this country – will lose access to crucial federal loans. Thousands of researchers working to cure cancer, diabetes and scores of other life-threatening diseases will lose their jobs.
Congress has the power to prevent these self-inflicted wounds. We have the power to turn off the sequester, protect American families and businesses and ensure our national defense.
In the House and in the Senate, Republicans and Democrats voted to impose these cuts. And it will take Republicans and Democrats working together to avert them. Twenty-eight Republicans in the Senate and 174 Republicans in the House voted to impose these painful cuts. If those same Republicans would work with Democrats to find a balanced way to reduce the deficit, Congress could avert the forced austerity of the sequester today – right away.
Unfortunately, Republicans would rather let devastating cuts go into effect than close a single wasteful tax loophole. They would rather cut Medicare, education and medical research than ask a single millionaire to pay a single dollar more in taxes.
The overwhelming majority of Americans want us to compromise before their neighbors, friends and family members get pink slips or furlough notices. The overwhelming majority of Americans – including 56 percent of Republicans – support Democrats' balanced approach. Once again, the only Republicans rejecting a reasonable, balanced compromise are Republicans in this building – Republicans in Congress.

While on a fishing trip over the Fourth of July weekend in Panama, 18-year old Stephen Schultz was injured when a 600-pound Marlin he was reeling in leapt into the boat, striking him in the head and chest.
The Schultz family - Bob, his son Stephen, and 20-year old daugher Allison - were on a fishing trip off the coast of Panama. Bob had taken his children to Panama for some quality time away from the demands of telephones and every day life before his son went away to college.
Stephen had hooked a Black Marlin when the boat was about 30 miles off shore. Estimated at 600 pounds, the fish leapt out of the water and crashed into the stern of the boat, landing right on the young angler.
Mates quickly cut the thrashing fish loose and all attention turned to Stephen, now lying on the deck and bleeding profusely from the nose and mouth. The boat immediately raced to shore -- a 2 hour journey -- and a waiting plane flew Stephen to the National Hospital in Panama City. X-Rays revealed broken sinus walls and several internal lacerations.
Since the incident, Stephen has been in and out of doctor's offices. Chances are good that no oral surgery will be needed to correct the sinus damage because the bones are so small.
Of the adventure, Bob says, "It was scary as hell. An inch's difference and my son might not have survived. And I'll be carrying my own first aid kit from now on." It turns out the boat was stocked with only a rudimentary first aid kit. A more severe wound might have been lethal that far from shore.
The chances of catching such an incident on video are very remote. As Bob says, "Has anybody ever gotten video of somebody getting struck by lightning?"
Stephen is expected to make a full recovery and attend the University of Colorado at Boulder in the Fall. Neither Bob or Stephen have any regrets about their experience, though Bob says his son will "be a lot more careful about which way the fish is pointing from now on."

CATEGORIES Drama, Romance, Sci-Fi & Fantasy, Mystery & Suspense, Steven Spielberg, CinematicalToday's pitch is more of a request for a greenlight. Jack Finney's illustrated novel Time and Again has been slated for the screen ever since the book was published 40 years ago, but I can't find any news on its development since 2002, when the long-attached Robert Redford had reportedly gotten Kenneth Lonergan to script the film version. Eight years later I've read the book and become a fan, and like many other of its fans I'd love to see someone finally get moving on...
Time and Again
The book is about an artist recruited for a government experiment in time travel, in which the man is sent back to the Manhattan of 1882, where he falls in love while investigating the mysterious circumstances behind a suicide. It's somewhat a cross between 12 Monkeys and Gangs of New York (which was co-written by Lonergan) and involves a mix of romance and historical tragedy that might also lump it in with Titanic. Another more obvious film connection is with Somewhere in Time, which features a character named for Finney (who also wrote the basis for all the Body Snatchers movies).
According to a New York Times article from 1994, the book has gone through many hands, including those of Paul Newman and Joanne Woodward, John Huston, Joel Silver and even Steven Spielberg, and at one time NBC was planning to adapt the novel as a TV miniseries. But budget concerns and the fact that Somewhere in Time bombed have constantly kept the thing from being made.
In all honesty, even with the sci-fi angle and some action scenes involving a building fire and a police chase the film would be light on mass appeal, particularly given that it'd primarily be a period piece love story with a fairly unsatisfying mystery subplot. But anyone who marveled at the re-creations of 19th Century Manhattan in Gangs of New York would similarly enjoy similar set pieces in Time and Again. And the CG effects required to handle such reproductions of NYC in both 1882 and 1970 (for certain reasons, including one that the book doesn't touch on, the 'present' of Finney's novel should be kept) are likely much cheaper, easier and more realistic than they were nearly a decade ago.
My only hesitation in wishing for Time and Again to be made into a movie is that a Hollywood adaptation would probably focus too much on the events of the book and less on the themes, which deal with history, change, the fleetingness of time and memory and the relative pros and cons of different eras (do we prefer to live in a world of vaccines and nuclear bombs or in a world of greater disease yet greater innocence?). But that's something we will always fear in the translations of book to film.
One great thing for Hollywood to consider: if Time and Again is a hit, there's already a sequel written by Finney, who unfortunately died before he could finish a planned third book.

Time for a few more Darts and Laurels.
My first Laurel goes to Kentucky's Tourism Development Finance Authority for
their preliminary approval of financial incentives to aid Ed Hart in reopening
Kentucky Kingdom.
Now that the
lease agreement between Hart's group and the Fair Board has finally been
approved, these incentives could be critical to the venture's ultimate success.
And I believe the jobs that will be created and the added tourism benefits the
park will provide make them well worth it.
In the same
vein, my next Laurel goes to the Louisville Slugger Museum, in recognition of
its third consecutive record year of attendance. Ever since opening in 1996,
Slugger Museum has been one of Louisville's most enduring attractions for
tourists and locals alike. And the nearly quarter-million
people who visited this year would seem to indicate it'll still be around for
many more years to come.
But finally,
a Dart goes to the NRA for its persistent opposition to universal background
checks of gun purchasers. NRA President Wayne LaPierre is correct in saying
that such checks will always be avoided by those who acquire guns illegally.
But following that logic, we should do away with laws against murder and
robbery because there will always be people who will break them.
Gun rights
advocates do have valid points to
make in defending their Second Amendment rights. But this isn't one of them.
I'm Bill
Lamb, and that's my…Point of View.

Traverse a few feet left (west) to where it's possible to set up a belay using small cams in a pocket. (Your belayer will be above a blank slab, so a fall would take you both for a ride, without the anchor). Climb the sandy slab, with a cruxy section above the pin to a ledge. Traverse this 30ish feet left to another drilled pin and go up a challenging vertical seam (5.11) to another ledge. Protect your second in a nice crack and traverse all the way left around to the other side of the tower. Belay at a drilled pin, which is next to a good protection crack. You will now be in the shade on the north side of the tower. Pitch two climbs the gaping offwidth above you. The first real difficulties comes at a v-slot that's just too small to squeeze through, requiring you to climb the outside. Above the crack widens to just too wide for you big cams. Fortunately, those who came before drilled 3 fixed pins. This pitch is fairly well protected, but hard and sandy. I'd give it desert 10+ OW, but many will be tempted to down grade it to 5.11.
Start below a slab on the southwest side of the tower.
Small nuts, draws, single set of cams from TCU-#3 friend. Double set of big cams up to #6 Friend. A blue big-bro would be nice...but we didn't have one.

I have been looking for years for an oval cloth. So when I found this oval tablecloth I purchased 2 - (White & Sage) They look beautiful on my table and the quality is excellent.
I was looking for a simple white tablecloth for my table which is quite long when all 3 leaves are in. It is very hard to find the 144 size and this tablecloth did the trick. It is very lovely and has a nice weight to it for the price. I had bought a smaller size locally but they did not have the larger size so I felt lucky to find it on Overstock for a good price.
Beautiful Damask Table Cloth looks stunning on our round dining table. It adds elegance to the dinner table and even makes my food taste better...or so it would seem. Dress up your table, and you'll see for yourself how even the taste buds and tell that you must have gone the extra mile in the pot as well as the table cloth! Delicious!
This is not the first Lenox table cloth I've ever bought. They look beautiful, wash well and are wider than most.
Nice looking, fashionable brend, good quality, practical, exactly what I need
I bought this item a while back, I have used it in several occasions and the table cloth has kept its original color, elegance and looks fantastic!
This tablecloth is a nice weight...not too heavy or too sheer. It washes and dries beautifully....no wrinkles.
This is the second tablecloth in this color and style that I have purchased *** - the only difference is the size. I am pleased with both of them. They launder well and the color stays exactly the same as when I took it out of the package. I am going to reorder the larger one in Ivory. The table looks beautiful
this tablecloth fit perfectly, look great and I got a lot of compliments on it.
This tablecloth is a vivid color, more burgundy than cranberry. The quality is excellent and the size is perfect.

This BECA Special Project publication features works of NEW ART by 18 'CURATE THIS! 2010' pARTicipating Artists, Architects + Designers selected by Helen Pheby, PhD, Curator, Yorkshire Sculpture Park, UK.
'CURATE THIS! 2010' is the second installment of the 'CURATE THIS!' exhibition series created by BECA: Bridge for Emerging Contemporary Art. The title reflects a departure from the familiar large scale exhibition model, typically curated by a singular vision with one head curator, to an exhibition with components and related events 'curated' by the public and professional and independent participants residing in multiple cities around the world. The first 'CURATE THIS!' experiment took place in early 2008 and led artists, designers and BECA Foundation volunteer directors, Melissa Roberts and Kurt Schlough to begin brainstorming the expansion of the experiment to bring about greater benefits to a larger number of participants.
Through the introduction and exhibition of works of new art + new design and related projects by pARTicipating artists, architects, designers, duos, groups and collectives around the world, The BECA Foundation aims to facilitate an experimental, cross-pollination of new ideas for creative innovation in diverse locations around the world.
The BECA Foundation would like to extend its heartfelt thanks to Helen Pheby, PhD, Curator, Yorkshire Sculpture Park and longtime BECA advisor, for her participation in this year's 'CURATE THIS! 2010' expanded event.
