Laboratory tests by PNNL showed that automatic self-correction of faults can be successfully performed. However, under some conditions passive detection of a fault may not be possible. The fault isolation process may also reach an incorrect conclusion under some circumstances, most commonly when closed dampers were leaking. This problem may be addressed by modifying the algorithms to automatically account for imperfections in damper sealing.

The Eagle-Tribune
---- — LAWRENCE — A North Andover man is facing felony assault and battery charges for allegedly repeatedly kicking another man in the head, resulting in facial fractures, during a fight in the parking lot of the British Club.
The 12:30 a.m. incident on Sunday, Oct. 21, which left Timothy Campolini with a fractured right eye socket and broken right cheekbone, was not immediately reported to police, according to a report released yesterday.
Lt. Shawn Conway, the licensing board investigator, found out about the fight between James Dion and Campolini after receiving a tip on his police department voice mail 16 hours after the fight occurred, according to his report.
As a result of his investigation, Conway issued a summons to Dion, 45, of 24 Francis St., North Andover for assault and battery with a dangerous weapon, a shod foot. If Campolini suffers any permanent scars or disfigurements, Dion could also be charged with mayhem, according to Conway's report.
The matter will now go before a clerk magistrate for a hearing. If the clerk determines evidence of a crime exists, Dion will be formally arraigned in Lawrence District Court.
Also, the British Club will be required to go before the city's licensing board for a hearing "for failing to contact the police about this incident," Conway wrote.
Police Chief John Romero stressed all clubs must notify police when a crime occurs on their premises.
"We hold all clubs' feet to the fire ... private or otherwise," Romero said. "They have a responsibility to let us know when things happen."
Campolini, 46, of 81 Everett St., who was undergoing treatment at a Boston hospital yesterday, declined comment for this story.
After receiving the tip about the fight, Conway went to the British Club at 88 Cambridge St. and in the south parking lot "found a large area of what I believed to be pooled dried blood in the parking lot." Conway also spoke with Frank Rossi, British Club president, and Bruce Fielding, treasurer. Neither were at the club that night but both knew Dion and Campolini were in a fight, according to Conway's report.
Conway then interviewed Campolini, whose face was black and blue, swollen and one eye was all red, he wrote. "The entire area of the right side of the head and face were effected," Conway wrote.
Campolini said he'd gone to the British Club for last call with his brother-in-law that morning. In the parking lot, Campolini said he looked up and Dion was running toward him. Campolini said he "put his hands up to protect himself and then took a swing at Dion and missed and then fell to the ground," according to the report.
Campolini said he then saw Dion getting ready to kick him and he felt "a sharp pain" to the right side of his face. Campolini said he then blacked out. Campolini said he didn't immediately go to the hospital because he didn't have medical insurance. "I advised him to seek medical treatment," Conway wrote.
British Club bartender David Woolworth told Conway he saw Dion kick Campolini in head "at least three times" while Campolini was on the ground. Dion was wearing work boots, according to Woolworth.
When Conway asked Woolworth why he didn't call police, he said he didn't want to get the club in trouble.
"I advised him it's his job to protect customers and that by not calling the police he was jeopardizing the club's license," Conway wrote.
Dion and Campolini had lingering tension after an argument two to three months ago, Conway wrote.
Dion could not be reached for comment for this story. Conway met with Dion, read him his Miranda rights and tried to ask him questions about the fight. Dion refused, saying he want to contact his lawyer, however.
Conway warned him he was barred from visiting the British Club and also advised him to have no contact with Campolini or he would be charged with intimidation of a witness.
Frank Rossi, British Club president, declined comment for this story when reached yesterday.

Coming Soon on TLCBooks
December 25, 2003, 02:50 AM
As soon as I can format it, TLC will soon feature an in-depth interview with Edmund Kern, author of The Wisdom of Harry Potter: What Our Favorite Hero Teaches Us About Moral Choices. If you're interested in a very intelligent (yet readable and interesting, not hoity-toity at all - no Byatts here) discourse on Harry's value system and what JKRowling means when she says these are "very moral books," check this out. It's a big mea culpa on my part that the interview has not yet been printed - holidays should never be this busy - but it will be up soon.

Charlie Clouser of NIN fame along with Rammstein went to town with Rob's Hellbilly Delux, and what came out IMO is an improvment on the original albums songs, very heavy and catchy. Standout tracks are the Dragula remix (of coarse), How to Make a Monster, and the LDG remix. If you're a fan of industrial-dance music like KMFDM you'll love this album.
Rob Zombie Biography - Rob Zombie Discography - All Heavy Metal Bands
With their aggro music, tattoos, piercings, and dreadlocks, P.O.D. (Payable on Death) might be conveniently filed next to Deftones or Rage Against the Machine. However, like U2, whose "Bullet the Blue Sky" they cover, P.O.D. are actually a Christian-based rock band, though not overtly religious enough to scare nonbelieving music fans away. This multiethnic quartet from the Southtown area of San Diego purveys an amalgam of modern music; elements of rap, metal, reggae, and hip-hop permeate this 16-track debut. P.O.D. doesn't bring much new to their hybrid style on The Fundamental Elements of Southtown, but what they do, they do well. From the gentle, reggae-tinged "Set Your Eyes to Zion" to the heavy grind of "Hollywood" and the rap-metal of "Lie Down," P.O.D.'s diverse and rockin' musical messages of positivism should make the foursome, already well known on the Christian rock circuit, a band to reckon with in secular circles. –Katherine Turman

Better or worse than original song?: 1. Dragula Mix: Better. The dragging lyrics are awesome for Dragula. 2.Superbeast Mix: Better. The techno adds a wonderful beat. 3.How To Make A Monster Mix: AWESOME!!! This remix is so much better than the slow paced original version. 4.Living Dead Girl Mix: Good. The beat stays much better than the original. 5.Spookshow Baby Mix: GREAT! Rammstein is awesome for this mix. 6.Demonoid Phenomenon Mix: Worse. People like the old metal better. 7.Resurrection of… Mix: Ok. The old one is still better in ways. 8.What Lurks on Channel X Mix: Awful. One of the worst tracks. Not catchy in anyway at all. 9.Meet the Creeper Mix (1):Ok. Remix gets old quick. 10.Return of the… Mix: Worse. The old one was so much longer and better. 11.Superbeast (2) Mix: Ok. Clouser has better remixes. 12. Meet the Creeper (2) Mix: Good. It;s fun to listen to as the last track. Overall, Zombie gets four stars. I minused a star because there is no new material.
This Cd rocks. It is an awsome mix of techno and metal. It definately is not as heavy as Hellbilly Deluxe. They are on the same level though. Only 1 or 2 songs lack the charm of the original. Dragula, How to make a Monster, Both Superbeasts, spookshow baby & living dead girl are as good as the originals or better. The Dragula re-mix definately takes the cake as the most well done re-mix on the cd. If you liked the heavy creepy feeling of the original don't get it, but if you like metal-techno this is the cd to get.
This album contains remixes of the songs on Hellbilly Deluxe. It came wtih a nice soft case, well decorated with Rob's art, as well as photos from live performances. I liked most of the remixes, although I liked the "Hot Rod Herman" remix of "Dragula" from the Matrix soundtrack than the one included on this album. Although the original album already had a techno sound to it, "American Made Music to Strip By" has its own original sound. This is an album every Zombie fan should have.
The gathering of three Industrial Rock powerhouses – Rob Zombie, Rammstein & Charlie Clouser (from NIN fame) – might produce what? More Industrial Rock?
No. Actually, british techno/electronica stylings are written all over these tracks. For example:
Track #1 (Dragula) is Big Beat meats Rob Zombie; sort of a heavier version of the Prodigy ("Firestarter" comes to mind). A slightly modified version of this track appeared on the "Matrix" soundtrack.
Track #3 (How to Make a Monster) is Big Beat again; this time around, it has a more hip-hopish, Chemical Brothers feel to it.
Track #7 (The Ballad of Ressurrection Joe) sounds like trip-hop to me ears.
Track #8 (What Lurks on Channel X?) has shades of the Prodigy's "Smack my Bitch Up", starting when the verse kicks in.
Track #11 (Superbeast, mix #2) is an interesting drum n' bass version of this song. Actually, I prefer it than the original version. No wonder that's the version used on the "Superbeast" video.

4.33/5 rDev -4.2%
The beer pours a dark brown/black color with a thick frothy tan head that slowly fades to lacing. The aroma is good. It has a nice earthy black malt scent that's light and complimentary to the mild hop nose. It's well done with a perfect balance of malt and hop aromas. The taste is great! It has a smooth, black malt earthiness along with a powerful hop flavor. It's mild up front, but it resinates with a bold bitterness in the finish. It goes down quick and effortlessly with no indication of an elevated abv.. The mouthfeel is fine. It is a full bodied beer with adequate carbonation. This is a delicious BIPA. It's an easy drinker with loads of hop character. Happy Anniversary!!

Straight pour from the cask into my HF oversized wine glass. This cask was dry-hopped with Cascade, and served at my friend Jeremy's (bentonquest) birthday party. Pretty rad.
Appearance (4.0): The body is good and black, but not particularly opaque. The head starts around one finger and dissipates to some very coarse bubbles over the top, appropriate to the serving style. Any head present is tan-colored, not a ton of lacing going on but it's on cask so I'm not expecting a huge amount.
Smell (4.0): Sweet, red grapefruit predominantly, with some chocolate underneath—but what's really striking is the sweetness of that citrus character. Love that hop character, though.
Taste (4.0): Sweet, somewhat bitter citrus character comes along first—that sweet, red grapefruit character comes along first. Makes sense, seeing as it's dry-hopped with Cascade. There's a nice, subtle chocolatey character here, too, and a very subtle coffee bitterness underneath it all. Neutral yeast note, very long and subtle finish with a slightly tingly bitterness to end—mainly citrus pith to finish, and it's quite nice. Where in the world is the alcohol, I have no idea. Very, very smooth.
Mouthfeel (4.0): Very smooth, slightly oily, and understated in carbonation—exactly what I expect from something cask-conditioned, and it really works for this beer and its dry-hopping. Dry finish, slightly oily, and on the light side of medium-bodied. I dig it.
Overall (4.0): This is a really solid Black IPA, and I'm psyched to get this in bottle format. Apparently this is one of four casks dry-hopped with different hops: Summit, Centennial, Cascade, and Citra. This is the Cascade-dry-hopped cask, and it's damn good. I actually got to talk to the brewer about this beer, and I totally get what they're going for with this beer. And I CANNOT wait for this to be bottled. Good work, Middle Ages!

Had the 16th anniversary black IPA on cask and was served in a pint glass.
Pitch black color with almost no light penetration. One finger off-white head that barely dissipated and stayed throughout. I must admit, the head retention was very, very good.
Aroma was extremely hop-forward, lots of floral and fruity notes with hints of malt in the back; very inviting.
Taste compliments the aroma, roasted notes upfront which are completely enveloped by the hop bitterness from the middle all the way to the finish. The oak presence is not overwhelming either, with hints of woody flavor coming through intermittently.
Very easy to drink and the alcohol is also masked very well.
Excellent lacing all along the insides of the glass.
Glad I got a chance to try this delicious, tasty brew.
Definitely worth a try and comes recommended.

Vt. farmers hit by rains, urged to report damageBy LISA RATHKE
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS | July 12,2013WILLISTON In his 40 years of dairy farming in Vermont, Don Pouliot has never seen weather like he has this spring and early summer.
His fields of feed corn on the Browns River in Westford and Essex have been under water five or six times this year. Typically, they flood once a season and dry out, but the onslaught of heavy rains has left them in water and wet silt for long periods, killing or rendering much of the crop to feed his cows useless. Pouliot estimates hes lost 75 percent of his crop.
Two years after Tropical Storm Irene flooded crops and carried away farmland, Vermont farmers are getting drenched again with unprecedented rains.
Its affected every single sector of the ag economy: our dairy farmers trying to grow silage, trying to grow hay, grow feed; its affected our berry farmers, our vegetable farmers, our beef and meat farmers. Theres no one whos escaped some damage, said Gov. Peter Shumlin as he and Agriculture Secretary Chuck Ross visited a dairy farm in Williston on Thursday.
They urged farmers to document the damage with photographs and records for possible future aid. They also advised reporting damage to federal Farm Services Agency offices there are nine in Vermont that are collecting data on the weathers impact and are expected to seek an emergency disaster declaration after harvest. A declaration could make loans available to farmers.
Farmers who have crop insurance should contact their insurance agent about the damage and those with coverage through the noninsured crop disaster assistance program should report crop losses or potential losses to their local office, the officials said.
Since the end of June, Vermont has had a near-constant barrage of thunderstorms that has caused flash flooding in many communities. The heavy rains have hit all parts of the state.
In the worst case scenario, Lorenzo Whitcomb of Whitcomb Farm in Williston estimates hell lose 25 percent of his corn crop for his dairy cows. Of his 300 acres of corn, about 50 acres were directly affected by high water or rain and 10 acres of that is likely dead.
Whitcomb is now trying to maximize what he has, adding fertilizer to the fields and hoping the crop will be of high nutrient value.
Pouliot is replacing his damaged corn with sorghum.
With a drier weather in the weekend forecast, farmers plan to be busy in their fields. To give them a boost, Ross urged fellow Vermonters to buy locally produced food and lend a hand in the fields or drive a tractor.
We always in this business have to be optimistic, Whitcomb said. This year, we just have to try a little bit harder to be optimistic.MORE IN Vermont NewsNORTHFIELD Officials at Norwich University are set to celebrate a museum on its Northfield...

|Years played
|2010, 2nd round, 5th pick by Eagles
Eagles take risk on Sims' aggressiveness, health
If the Eagles can get recent trade acquisition Ernie Sims to play within the scheme and keep him healthy, he could he a valuable and versatile weapon.
Chiefs' choice of McCluster shocks Eagles
The Eagles were poised to draft Dexter McCluster, writes Eric Edholm, but K.C. beat them to the punch. In "Around the NFL," Edholm will be posting blog entries throughout the draft.
Eagles pay price to land Graham
I have to say I wasn't expecting Brandon Graham to be the pick at No. 13 once I heard the Eagles had traded up to that spot.
Eagles land Sims in three-team deal; Lions get Scheffler
The Eagles have acquired LB Ernie Sims from the Lions in a three-way trade on Monday. The Lions also landed TE Tony Scheffler from Denver, with the Broncos getting draft picks.

Eagles extend Banner's contract
The Eagles announced Thursday that they have extended the contract of president Joe Banner and promoted Don Smolenski to chief operating officer.
Draft's second day won't lack for intrigue
The second day of the NFL draft could be very interesting this year, writes PFW's Mike Wilkening, with the Eagles and Browns two teams to watch.
Trading McNabb right move for Eagles
Eagles fans have not known a full-time quarterback other than Donovan McNabb for the past 10 seasons, but they better get used to hearing a new QB's name in 2010.
Reid: Eagles willing to listen on QB offers
The Eagles have a wealth at quarterback, and other teams are calling to gauge the team's interest in trading one of them, head coach Andy Reid said this week at the NFL spring meetings.
Saints allow RB Bell to sign with Eagles
The Saints have decided not to match the Eagles' offer to restricted free-agent RB Mike Bell, allowing him to join Philadelphia.

Allen has left the Philadelphia Eagles' game against Chicago with a concussion.||||||| Allen is Philadelphia's starting free safety. He was injured in the first quarter during Chicago's scoring drive. Jay Cutler threw a 5-yard touchdown pass to Matt Spaeth to give the Bears a 7-0 lead Monday night.
Allen has a ruptured patellar tendon in his right knee and will have season-ending surgery.||||||| Allen, drafted with the second-round pick Philadelphia acquired from Washington in the Donovan McNabb trade, is the fourth defensive starter to go down for the season. A potential fifth, middle linebacker Stewart Bradley, is out with a dislocated elbow and may not return until the playoffs. Allen was hurt in the Eagles' 38-31 win over the New York Giants. His knee appeared to buckle while he tackled Mario Manningham.
Allen has solidified his position as a starter with his play during training camp.||||||| Defensive coordinator Sean McDermott calls Allen unshakable, and says the second-round pick from South Florida has earned the respect of his peers. McDermott made his comments after Wednesday morning's practice at Lehigh University. The Eagles struggled last season to find a capable free safety after perennial Pro Bowler Brian Dawkins signed with Denver as a free agent. Allen was given the starting spot at the beginning of camp.

I stumbled upon this video and several others on YouTube that you can find for yourself. I have no idea whether this guy is who he says/said he is or anything. I am simply posting this because I found it to be interesting and frankly scary in that it is my own view that we, in fact, lost the cold war.
I welcome your thoughts.
"Our president delivered his State of the Union message to Congress. That is one of the things his contract calls for -- to tell congress the condition of the country. This message, as I say, is to Congress. The rest of the people know the condition of the country, for they live in it, but Congress has no idea what is going on in America, so the president has to tell 'em." ~ Will Rogers
I saw this when Clinton was President. It seemed quite possible then ... as it does today.
Liberalism is just communism sold by the drink.

Singled Out: "I Thought, 'Tweet Would Sound So Great On This Song'"
Tuesday, Oct 11, 2011 12:15AM
[SOHH highlights a single each week and offers a unique look at the song. After rapper J-EyE broke down his "This Goes Out" record, R&B diva Syleena Johnson talks about bringing singer Tweet back into the spotlight with their "Angry Girl" collaboration.]
Tweet and I were going to work on a project together [at some point], but we never got a chance to work on it. I've always wanted her for this song whether it was going to be for a project or not.
I've always loved her voice. When I wrote the song and sang it, it was [initially] going to be a song by myself but when I heard it I thought, "Tweet would sound so great on this song." It was just the perfect song for her voice so I was very blessed and lucky to get in contact with her and have her to do the song with me. I think I may have texted her and asked her to do this and it was great
because my label stepped in as well and took over with her people and my
people. I guess it's easy when the people know each other and they
first agree, then everything else is really easy.
There's a void in R&B. [This song is] bringing back R&B music ... There's a lot of things missing from the industry right now, not just R&B. There's all kinds of good music. We're so focused on hip-hop that we don't even pay attention to any other kind of music. Not saying hip-hop is bad, but you have to be able to branch out. Music is the soundtrack of our lives.
Syleena Johnson is the daughter of '60s R&B/blues singer Syl Johnson, part of the famed Hi Records roster. She grew up listening to Aretha Franklin, Al Green, Tina Turner, the Dells, and Mavis Staples. Early on, she developed a love for music. She performed in local bands in Chicago. She sang in her church choir at Greater Christian Unity. She worked in classical and gospel choirs as well as jazz ensembles at Drake University and at Illinois State University, where she majored in music. After having nodes removed from her vocal cords, she took two years of speech therapy. She has seven years of vocal training. All the hard work made Johnson one of her generation's most soulful and realistic R&B singers.

When Twitter announced it was planning to sell stock to the public and make its founders richer than God, millions of people responded to the news by wondering, "How can a company named after bird sounds be worth $10 billion?"
Millions of other people scratched their heads and wondered, "What in the world is Twitter?"
It's a social networking (or, if you prefer, "microblogging") service that until recently limited users to 140-character messages. Photos are now possible, but most users stick with word updates.

It's an impossibly beautiful summer morning in Vermont — and I'm leaving the state on the last Saturday of July to go sit in a dirty church basement in Providence, R.I.
My travel takes me south through the mountain towns of Jamaica and Townshend along Route 30. There's a farmer's market along the way, and in another town they're getting ready for a parade.
On the shortcut through Brattleboro I pass the old ski jump on the edge of town, near signs protesting a skateboard park.
The Dylan tickets arrived in the mail a couple weeks before last Sunday's show at the Saratoga Performing Arts Center. I'd spent a ridiculous amount of money to get the best seats.
Dylan is 72 and he's been a smoker forever and survived a weird heart ailment. So if you're a fan, you always have to wonder if the next Dylan show you see will be the last one.
And having seen him perform in hayfields, outdoor venues, and cavernous basketball arenas, I wanted just once to see him up close.
Memories of the recently ended session of the Vermont Legislature have, for all but the politically addicted, faded with the late spring heat.
But it's worth taking a quick look back at the session, which will be remembered for two landmark pieces of legislation that will touch many Vermonters.
Sometimes it seems like environmentalists have put themselves on such a state of red alert that we can't see a good thing when it's right in front of us.
We're so used to fighting every inappropriate intrusion upon Mother Earth, that even the idea of using wind to provide electrical power can seem like a threat.
So when they could be organizing to support alternative energy sources such as wind farms, a few environmentalists have decided that because wind power, like any energy source, has some small drawbacks, wind is a bad idea altogether.
We are surrounded by marble and granite, so much so that we rarely give it a thought. Much of the state is made of the stuff, our mountains and courthouses and old inns.
Marble and granite are among our most famous exports. When we see TV images of the U.S. Supreme Court and the Lincoln and Jefferson memorials, we are looking at pieces of Vermont.
What happens, though, when we see the stone itself as art?
Winston Churchill said of democracy that it is "the worst form of government except for all those other forms that have been tried from time to time." That may also be a good description of Vermont town meeting.
Voters at town meeting are asked to make decisions through a process that can be imprecise, contentious, confusing and ill informed.
Most Americans have never joined a political demonstration.
That's too bad. Because as I was reminded again last Sunday while joining yet another demonstration, it can be tons of fun.
The rally this time was "Forward on Climate," a boisterous gathering in Washington, D.C., of 35,000 people, who called on President Obama to block the Keystone XL oil pipeline.
The future of the pipeline is up to Obama because it would cross the Canada-U.S. border to bring the dirtiest oil on the planet from Alberta to refineries in the southern U.S.
Vermont town meeting is traditionally a forum for issues that are local and often relatively small — how much money to spend on mosquito control, for example.
But sometimes the matters brought to town meeting are global and large. Many towns, for example, voiced their opposition to the continuing war in Iraq in 2005.
This year, a number of Vermont towns will be considering another big question with global implications: Should they go on record as opposing a proposal to pipe highly polluting "tar sands" oil through Vermont?

From Staff Reports
Kokomo Tribune
---- — PERU — The Miami County Sheriff's Department is requesting area residents dispose of their unwanted prescription drugs from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. Saturday. at the Miami County Jail, 1104 W. 200 North, Peru,
The service is free and anonymous. Officials say no questions will be asked.
This is the seventh pill collection day in three years. Officials say it helps prevent pill abuse and theft by ridding homes of potentially dangerous, expired, unused and unwanted prescription drugs.
Last April, Americans turned in 371 tons of prescription drugs at more than 5,800 sites operated by the Drug Enforcement Administration and its thousands of state and local law enforcement partners, according to a press release.
Officials say the initiative addresses a vital public safety and health issue. Medicines that languish in home cabinets are susceptible to diversion, misuse and abuse.
Officials say rates of prescription drug abuse in the U.S. are alarmingly high, as are the number of accidental poisonings and overdoses due to these drugs.
Studies show a majority of abused prescription drugs are obtained from family and friends, including from the home medicine cabinet. In addition, Americans are now advised that old methods for disposing of unused medicines, like flushing them down the toilet or throwing them in the trash, pose potential safety and health hazards.
The DEA is in the process of approving new regulations that implement the Safe and Responsible Drug Disposal Act of 2010. It allows an owner of controlled substances to dispose of them by delivering them to entities authorized by the attorney general. The act also allows the attorney general to authorize long-term care facilities to dispose of their residents' controlled substances in certain instances.
Miami County Sheriff Tim Miller said he encourages all residents to check their homes for any unused or outdated prescription medications and bring them to the jail this Saturday.
"By working together, we can make Miami County a healthier and safer place to live," he said.

Think back to a year ago. Snowstorm after snowstorm had accumulated in January like layers of a frozen parfait until we were all half-blinded by the drifts and shuttled into narrow lanes on the roadways. It was frustrating, it was dangerous and it was epic — one of those winters we'll all remember.
Take a look outside today. Not a flake to be seen. The grass, if not exactly green, still has some color to it. The flowers are confused; the birds are dysfunctional; and we won't even begin to talk about the bears.
So did the universe just decide we'd had enough after 2011's terrible trifecta: White-Out Winter, Tropical Storm Irene and Snowtober?
Not exactly. Weather experts have laid the Lower 48's mild winter at the door of a phenomenon known as Arctic Oscillation, which is also to blame for the huge snowfall in Alaska this year.
NASA's Science News website says that "Arctic Oscillation is a see-sawing pressure difference between the Arctic and lower latitudes. When the pressure difference is high, a whirlpool of air forms around the North Pole. Last year, the whirlpool motion was weaker, allowing cold air to escape from the polar regions and head southward to the U.S."
As explained by meteorologist Jeffrey Masters to NPR, Arctic Oscillation also "drives the jet stream and controls how strong its winds are and where the jet stream position is."
If the jet stream moves south of us, we tend to have a colder winter with heavy snow. If the jet stream is pushed north of us, subtropical air stays in play and keeps the winter mild.
Masters told NPR that the Arctic Oscillation can only be predicted a week or two out, so there's a chance that we could see a change by late February. But for now, we're on a track to have the warmest winter on record in the United States.

Potato Wedges, Recipe Wanted

Potato Wedges, Recipe Wanted
Looking for several coating/seasoning recipies for potato wedges.
I have an excuse. CRS.
Beer battered wedges
Here is a recipe that Ethel just found, and we love it.
Beer Battered Potato Wedges
4 medium baking potatoes
1 cup all-purpose flour
1/4 cup milk
1 egg
1 tablespoon seasoned salt
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
1/2 teaspoon pepper
1/2 cup beer or nonalcoholic beer
Oil for deep frying
Scrub and pierce potatoes. Microwave, uncovered, on high for 10-12 minutes or just until tender, turning once.
Meanwhile, in shallow bowl, whisk flour, milk, egg, seasoned salt, oil, and pepper until smooth. Stir in beer, set aside.
When potatoes are cool enough to handle, cut into wedges (Ethel uses a french fry cutting frame). Heat oil to 375 in electric skillet or deep fryer. Dip wedges into batter. Fry in batches for 3-4 minutes or until golden brown, turning occasionally. Drain on paper towels (Ethel uses a paper grocery sack and shakes them).
Very good, and not as much work as it sounds.
Grandpa always said "You won't do it any younger, might as well get at it."
Re: Potato Wedges, Recipe Wanted
Thank you. I'll give it a try.
I have been checking the Web and the back of several commercial potato wedge packages for possible recipes. It appears to me that the commercial products have a batter type coating.
I have also tried a number of coating products - none are very good. Either to salty or way to spicy.
I have an excuse. CRS.
Re: Potato Wedges, Recipe Wanted
She will also grill wedges with a coating of olive oil, cajun seasoning salt, and pepper.

Reviews for Green Chili Rice Casserole
Sort By :
Great combination. I too use shredded cheese instead of cubes. I served it with plum-glazed chicken. Thank you for sharing.
I made 1 1/2 times the recipe for our Sabbath fellowship. I added 1 tablespoon each seasoning salt & garlic powder, used 2 (7 oz.) cans green chilies & a blend of 3 different pepper jack cheeses. I added 3/4 cup chicken broth for warming in a crockpot. I think it would have gone over better if I had put shredded cheddar on the top. I brought most of the pot home. I thought it tasted good, however.
I've made this recipe twice now. It is so easy and so tasty. I, too, shredded the cheese for easier combining. Also, I roasted Pasilla peppers and cut them up instead of using canned chilis. Added a smokey flavor. Love this recipe.
The combination of these ingredients are fantastic! I have made this twice, both times as a side for guests when I make a taco bar. I shredded the Monterey Jack cheese the 2nd time, and it seemed to be a better mix. I LOVE this recipe!
This is soooo close to my mother's recipe that has been in the family for over 60 years! I LOVE IT! However, mom's called for 1/4 cup softened butter in the rice mixture.
With this recipe, I used shredded monterrey jack cheese instead. I layer 1/2 of the rice mixture, topped with 1/2 the cheese, another layer of the rice mixture, then the other 1/2 of the cheese on top. COMES OUT PERFECT!
BTW...this recipe goes GREAT with the Slow-Cooked Flank Steak recipe on this website..

cottage rental amenities
Deck facing the Silver Lake Channel & hundreds of acres of State Land Woods. Plenty of wild life to watch.
The near by Silver Lake Sand Dunes offer 2000 acres of beach sand. Take the Canoe or Aluminum boat to get there.
Cottage is 1 mile from Lake Michigan with free parking and Public Beech Access. 1.5 Miles from the Lake Michigan Little Point Sable Light House. 1/3 mile down the Silver Lake Channel is a small park with a few picnic tables. A foot bridge is used to cross the channel to get to the park. The park is between my cottage and the Silver Lake Channel Dam.
In the other direction.. 1/2 Mile North is a small free County boat launch. 1.5 Miles to the Silver Lake State Park Camp Grounds. There is a swimming area at this park. Also a boat launch for heavier boats.
Walking. Walk off road... State Land across the channel or across the road through Hide-away-camp grounds joins State Land walking paths in the woods. I prefer walks through Hide-away camp grounds.
activities and attractions in Silver Lake Michigan
Cottage Suggestions. Take them or Leave them, Youre on Vacation.
Canoe - Included is a Coleman Canoe life jackets, seat cusions and paddles. The canoe works well in the Silver Lake channel and getting to the sand dunes if the pilots of the canoe have some skills.
Go left ( West) from the cottage in the canoe and one can go about 1/2 mile to a small dam.
Row Boat - WAY more stable then the Canoe. This Sea Worthy 14 foot Aluminum StarCraft wont sink. Rowing out the channel may be a challenge when you get close to Silver lake the channel narrows. It depends on the current of that day. Some will walk the boat a few feet into Silver lake then the current stops. The row back is a breeze. Ive been rowing it since the 1970's. Due to some shallow areas, it is best to row the channel and use the motor in Silver Lake.
WATER- One of the facts of the walking area of the Silver Lake beeches at the sand dunes is you cannot drive there and park on the dunes.. It keeps the Dunes more exclusive to boaters.
The Sand dunes are in 3 sections. South is Mac Wood Dune rides. Middle is the public area. Most people get ther via boat. The North is for Motor vehicals with off road registration, State Park registration, flags etc to drive there.
If you want to go to Lake Michigan.. there are 2 parking areas at Lake Michigan near the cottage. Just turn Right (West) out of the cottage and follow the asphalt. One is a parking area for the public where the channel meets Lake Michigan the other is at the Light House.
FISHING - Many people fish right in front of the cottage. Most of the fishermen I see on Silver lake are near where this Channel enters Silver Lake. One man recomments between the State Park and the boat rental docks. Also, there is an upper channel to check out.
Silver Lake. Silver Lake is about 2 miles long and 1 mile wide. The deepest part is actually near the dunes about 25 feet deep. There is a severe drop off as the Dunes encroach on the Lake. On the road side of Silver Lake it is relitively shallow for hundreds of feet.
Boat Launches - there are 5. only one at the State Park works for Fiberglass boats. 17' or smaller Aluminum boats or jet ski's may use the others. One is across the street from Mac Wood Dune Rides, One Between the State park and Flordale resort, one near the Boat rental place at the end of the lake and one on the upper channel.
State Land is across the channel from the cottage- You are welcome to hike on the land across the channel from the cottage. If you run into a sandy road you have reached where Mac Wood Dune rides run and pedestrains make the drivers nervous. Please keep a distance from thier trails. Hiking is one way to the Dunes.
HIDE AWAY CAMP GOUNDS - Across the street has a coin laundry room, a little store , and PIZZA. Whippy Dip next to Mac Woods has Pizza.
This cottage is 1/2 Mile to Silver Lake. One mile to Lake Michigan.
11 miles from Pentwater ( a tourist community boardering Lake Michigan).
6-8 miles from Stony Lake
3 golf courses
Lake Michigan beaches 1 mile.
Little Point Sable Lighthouse
Multiple water activities and rentals
Silver Lake Sand Dunes / Mac Wood Dune Rides

I remember back on June 27th that someone named Slashchick wrote that we'd never sell our house for more than Zillow listed it for. And, if we did, it would have taken weeks or months.
Long story short: she was wrong. It sold in four days. For way more than Zillow was listing it for. (We didn't want to jinx the sale by blogging about it, but everything is pretty much finished up now, so I can blog about it finally).
This gets to something that I've noticed. Many bloggers and commenters are pessimistic. I'm an optimist! Well, that, and we have a real estate agent who looks out for us.
Remember how we bought this place? We were going to Stan's office to sign papers to buy another house. Maryam had looked at 50 houses back three years ago. When we got there he said "another place just came on the market and I think you should see it."
He didn't go for the quick and easy sale. He didn't need to do that, he already could feel his 3% lining his pockets. But, he decided to do some extra work. Something Maryam and I have always appreciated about Stan.
Anyway, that turned out to be a HUGE windfall for us. This house went up in price much faster than the other place we were thinking of buying.
It sold for almost what we were asking for the house (in the $440,000 range — Zillow listed its value as $414,000 — we bought this house for $295,000 three years ago). One thing Zillow can't show is how much was invested in the house after buying. We put thousands of dollars in the house in repairs and upgrades.
Other houses in our neighborhood have not sold as fast. The market is switching from a seller's market to a buyer's market but some markets remain hot. If you have a great house that the market wants it'll pay the price. Stan knew that because he knew our market. If I tried to sell myself I probably would have just asked for Zillow's price, which would have been a mistake. One thing I learned in the camera store I used to work at: it's very easy to lower your price, it's nearly impossible to raise it.
Down in Silicon Valley I know a guy who just got into a bidding war over a house (he won, but paid FAR above the original asking price). So, even in "over priced" California the housing market is still strong.
Why did our house sell? Well, it had all the attributes that home buyers look for. Quiet street. Roomy. Great yard. Curb appeal. Nice neighbors.
So, why did we get a house in Half Moon Bay and pay WAY UNDER Zillow's estimated price? We bought that for $900,000, where the owners were asking $930,000 and Zillow said it should sell for $1.127 million.
We win on both sides of this deal.
Why didn't the owners of that home get what they wanted? Well, because the Half Moon Bay house was put on the market in the summertime. There's a few things you should know about that. First, the heat in the valley pulls in ocean air. That means fog. Cold. Wet. We ignored that.
Second, there's a major road into the Half Moon Bay area that's out right now (Hwy 1, which is out at Devil's Slide until late September). So, that means traffic. Traffic. Horrible commutes. We ignored that too.
But other buyers didn't.
Oh, how did we find that house in Half Moon Bay? One of Maryam's best high-school-friends, Katherinne Garzon, is now a real estate agent. She was looking for the best housing investments for us in the San Francisco area. She also encouraged us to low-ball our offer and see what happens. We held back our enthusiasm for the house (it was the first and only house I looked at because I fell immediately in love with it) and knew we were playing a game of chicken. If another buyer had showed up we would have lost that game. I've learned to listen to the professionals, though, and it all worked out.
Aside: I see George Ou talking about the heat and power problems that they are having in Silicon Valley right now. I can see nuclear power in our future. The pressure on the system to keep supplying us with cheap power is going to be extreme. We've gotten addicted to our computers and our air conditioners and our HDTVs.
Anyway, I've come to appreciate the Zillow blog. It's informative, well written, and I love the heat maps. Not the temperature, but how "hot" a market is.
But, the lesson here is that Zillow's prices are a guideline and you shouldn't take them as gospel. Real prices will vary by neighborhood and, even, by house as we've found.
Personal note to Slashchick: stick to your day job.
We'll miss Bothell. I definitely have mixed emotions today.

The best way to handle filters for lenses such as this is to do what they do with the big telephoto lenses and put the filter at the rear of the lens.
Do you think Canon will (if it's even possible) design such a lens to take a drop-in holder like the supertele lenses? A slot for gels doesn't work for a CPL, for example, and even on UWA lenses they are useful for reflections and increasing saturation, e.g. foliage shots.
