May be moving to the Cape soon and want to connect with the "climbing community" (if there is such a thing). Anybody out there?
Do you know what part of the cape? That can make a BIG difference for the availability of climbing within a reasonable drive. Also, what kind of climbing do you like to do?
Patrick, here's another thread on climbing and the Cape: www.mountainproject.com/v/eastern_states/cape_cod_climbingbo>>>
Hey man, When I go up to NH with Heidi, I'll make sure to let you know and we'll make trips to climb while she visits her friends. Probably no different that driving to the red or new from columbus, right?
We will probably end up mid-cape, somewhere between Hyannis and Eastham. Big area I know but the wife has family in Eastham and I'll probably be working in the Hyannis area if things go right. I'm used to a 4 hour drive to the NRG or RRG so actually look forward to being "close" to New Hampshire etc. Ice climbing for me involves a 12-14 hour (each way) drive right now! I pretty much do it all ice, sport, multi pitch trad,alpine, mountaineering everything but bouldering I guess, but may have to take that up!
Yeah Price that would work great! You've been to Rumney right? Hard as frick sport routes there.
I'm a long time climber originally from the Orleans but now live in W. Mass. I do get back often though and have explored a lot of what's down there. By far the best boulder and rock quality I've found is a huge, by Cape standards, granite erratic in the shore of Cliff Pond in Nickerson State Park. Only real one worth climbing in the park but definately worth it if water levels aren't too high. I've done about a dozen problems and variations V2-V10. There a decent boulder near the town tennis courts in Orleans across from the police station. I've put up a handful of problems in the V0-V7 range. Not super high quality but easy to get to and some decent features. Doane Rock in Eastham is OK. Tall but not super quality. Devils Rock at the end of Tonset Road in Orleans is also impressive and big. Climbable at low tide but watch out for the barnacles, seagull shit and crumbly rock quality. Worth a visit though if your a climber. Hockenum Rock in Dennis is also good but I like the others better. Years ago someone also epoxied a whole bunch of rocks behind the building to the left of the Orleans Bowling Ally. I doubt its allowed anymore but I've been back a couple times for a quick session without incident. I'd keep a low profile. Email me if and when you finally get down to the Cape. Always keen to climb with others when I visit.
Dude, you're like 3 hours from Rumney and Pawtuckaway is even closer. If sport or bouldering ain't your thing, another hour will get you up to Whitehorse/Cathedral and Cannon. In Maine, you got Acadia and the Shagg crag which can't be too far either. Also, if you can tear the beta out of the locals who cling to their "secret" (meaning only if your part of the "in" crowd) crags like a frightened mother holding a child, Vermont has a ton of great climbing as well. All of which should be within 4 hours or so of the Cape. Plus, if you're used to 12 hour approach drives, then the Gunks is certainly within range.
Relocating from San Diego to Providence, RI in two weeks. I'm looking to meet climbers, too. Shoot me a PM and lets hook up for trip to NH sometime in late May or early June.
I am in the same boat, here in the Cape for the summer and I am already missing the close proximity to Rumney, P-Way and Western Mass(I got to shool in Boston). I heard a rumor about boulders in Falmouth but haven't checked it out yet. Also there are rumors of boulders off some of the bike trails in the town I am staying in, Sandwich. If anyway is interested in investigating any of these leads, I am down. Also, a sure bet is Lincoln Woods for bouldering.
Unless they have firmed up, the Falmouth stuff is pretty soft. Westport has some climbing but is kinda out of the way. There is quite a bit in RI in addition to the Woods- Newport, Acadia management area, etc...

Futurebiotics - CranBiotic Sugar-Free Cranberry + Probiotic - 60 Vegetarian Capsules
Futurebiotics - CranBiotic Sugar Free Cranberry Probiotic. Clinical research has shown that the ingredients in CranBiotic can help maintain critical flora balance in the urinary and gastro-intestinal tracts. Furthermore, the special microencapsulated spores in Lactospore eliminate the potential negative interaction between cranberry and certain probiotics, rendering the probiotics ineffective.
Research indicates that cranberry helps inhibit harmful pathogens from adhering to the mucosal cells lining the urinary tract. A clinical study utilizing CranEX Cranberry extract showed excellent benefits with chronic UTI sufferers. This ultra high-potency, patented sugar-free cranberry extract is concentrated at 150:1 and is standardized for 30% polyphenols as proanthocyanidins (PAC).
Delivering viable live probiotics to the intestinal tract is a formidable technical challenge. Lactospore is a naturally microencapsulated soporiferous preparation of Lactobacillus sporogenes that is proven to deliver viable lactobacilli to the intestine. It is room-temperature stable and highly resistant to the action of heat, gastric acids and bile, containing microorganisms capable of rectifying the gastro-intestinal flora imbalance. CranBiotic provides 200 million friendly bacteria cells per daily dose. Lactospore is uniquely engineered to remain viable in solution with CranEX high-potency cranberry extract.
Futurebiotics CranBiotic:
CranBiotic is further enhanced with Fructooligosaccharides (FOS), which are non-digestible dietary fibers that help keep the gastro-intestinal system healthy by nourishing and promoting friendly bacteria; and Cratavin, a standardized extract that provides natural support for urinary health maintenance.
CranBiotic is potency-enhanced with Futurebiotics BioAccelerators. Clinically-proven Bioperine (Piper nigrum extract) improves nutrient bioavailability, while our proprietary natural compound of Ginger extract, Trikatu, and super-potent Digezyme boosts digestion and absorption.
CranBiotic - taking inspiration from Nature. This 100% vegetarian product has an aromatic botanical essence added. Glass packaging extends natural freshness and helps maintain potency.
Healthy Urinary Tract Action PlanThe urinary tract is the body's filtering system for removal of liquid wastes. Harmful bacteria may invade the urinary tract, cling to the inside walls of the urethra and bladder and then multiply, resulting in a urinary tract infection (UTI). Contributing factors include the use of antibiotics, structural abnormalities of the urinary tract, sexual intercourse, excessive sugar consumption, chronic vaginitis and waiting too long to empty the bladder. Maintaining a balance of friendly flora is important to preserving and restoring a healthy urinary tract.
FuturebioticsFuturebiotics provides real health solutions. Guaranteed. Each product employs natural ingredients based on the latest science and research that deliver proven benefits - consistently, by design. Cutting-edge science is complemented with natural co-factors for intuitive natural fit. And many products feature Futurebiotics unique BioAccelerators™ that enhance digestion and absorption.

A disabled man escaped a fire early Thursday, but his home was destroyed.
It happened just after midnight in the 2000 block of Scarlet Oaks Drive in Irving.
Abe Acosta said he heard a pop at the back of the house and was met with heavy smoke and flames when he went to investigate.
He uses a walker to get around, but was able to get out of the house unharmed.
Acosta's wife was at work at the time.
Firefighters had to back off from the intense flames and try to protect a neighbor's house. They called in extra manpower at the height of the fire.
The family lived in the home for about 40 years.
Acosta said despite losing almost everything, he's counting his blessings. Two of his 2300 books survived -- two bibles.
Investigators believe the blaze may have been started by a heat lamp used to keep a litter of kittens warm.

"Simple Truth" to Perform on the Carolina Beach Boardwalk Sunday, August 11th at 7:00PM
- Details
- Published on Wednesday, 07 August 2013 23:07
- Written by Super User
Part of the joy of being in Carolina Beach comes from enjoying the live music on the boardwalk. This Sunday evening another genre of music will join the lineup with a performance by "Simple Truth", a new contemporary Christian band featuring young adult musicians from our area.
Chelsea Litzinger, a member of the band, stated "While we have all known each other for some time and played together before, our band, Simple Truth, started playing together publicly about mid-summer. We play primarily contemporary Christian music. Our bass player, Will Archer, is a rising sophomore at NC State and has been playing bass for about 7 years now with his church praise band and other miscellaneous groups.
He is a member of Pine Valley UMC in Wilmington. Our guitar player, Ryan McFall, is a rising sophomore at UNCW and has been playing for about 9 years. He is also a member of Pine Valley UMC in Wilmington and has played with their church praise band for several years.
Emily Wilder is a rising sophomore at East Carolina University and has been singing for as long as she can remember in choir and the church praise band. She is a member at Wesley Memorial UMC. Chelsea Litzinger has been playing and singing for about 8 years with her church praise band and she is also a member at Wesley Memorial UMC. Our group loves any opportunity to get out and play and share our faith with the community and feel very blessed to be able to play together."
St. Paul's UMC invites you to the gazebo at the boardwalk this Sunday, August 11th at 7:00pm. Plan to sit back, enjoy the music, support these young musicians with your presence, and be reminded of why we love being here!

NASHVILLE (AP) - Tennessee prosecutors are pushing for changes to the law that they say will aid the prosecution of serial child sexual abusers.
Guy Jones is deputy director of the Tennessee District Attorneys General Conference. He said in a news release that prosecutors want to be able to have one trial for sex abusers who commit crimes in multiple counties instead of separate trials in each county.
The proposed change is part of the group's legislative agenda this year.
They also want to increase the minimum amount of time that must be served before a prisoner is eligible for parole in cases of aggravated child neglect and attempted first-degree murder where there are serious bodily injuries.

What's your favorite Bret Bielema Twitter quote?
I voted "you tweet stupid things" because hypocrisy.
You can kill a fly with your slipper or a cannon. Either way, the fly dies. -Ramzy

My favorite is "1-0" like he's already won something in 2013, which he hasn't.
The offseason begins when your season ends. Even then there are no days off.
"Enjoy life alone" is something straight out of the Player Hater's Ball. I don't know whether to applaud that one or not.

Sony First out of the Gate with a Home Server Delivering 4K Content
In just a matter of hours, RED should be unveiling the final shipping model of REDRAY, its compressed 4K playback machine, as well as a brand new 4K distribution network. While details on that have been scarce at best, Sony has been planning their own delivery method for 4K, which coincides with the release of their flagship $25,000 84″ Bravia TV — that also features an advanced upscaler to get your 1080p interpolated up to 4K. Click through to read what the company has up their sleeves.
Ray Hartjen, on the Sony Blog, had this to say:
Last week I sort of shot off my mouth and suggested 4K content was going to be availablein the home. Today, that 4K dream came true as Sony officially introduced the 4K Ultra HD Video Player. Bundled exclusively as a special value add loaned to purchasers of Sony's XBR-84X900 4K LED television, the player is a hard disc solution that comes preloaded with the following full-length feature films:
- The Amazing Spiderman
- Total Recall (2012)
- Bad Teacher
- The Karate Kid (2010)
- Salt
- Battle Los Angeles
- The Other Guys
- That's My Boy
- Taxi Driver
- The Bridge on the River Kwai
But, that's not all. The Video Player also has a gallery of other 4K content, including shorts from cool contributors like Red Bull Media House and others.
So what about future content? Well, since the 4K Ultra HD Video Player will basically be a home server, you'll be able to update it with future content (presumably) over the internet. It would be interesting if that material was compressed in any way if it needed to be sent over a network, as I'm sure the size of the files could get a bit unwieldy — though with a fast connection, you can download 20-30GB or more in no time. It would, however, probably come down to data caps limiting you in the long run if you were getting new movies frequently enough.
The other solution will be 4K content sent by mail on Blu Ray discs. It's unclear whether that means they will be playable discs or just data discs, but since the new 1.4 HDMI spec includes 4K support, and Blu Ray already has support for 4K built-in (though not in most current players), it seems like this server could also be able to play 4K Blu Ray discs — but we'll have to see come January when it gets a full introduction at CES along with other products from Sony.
Many have talked about the lack of 4K content, but I have a feeling it's going to be very similar to the way HD began. It will be slow going until the TVs get cheaper (and computer screens finally hit 4K), but there very well may be an explosion in new content just as there was with HD. TV stations may take a bit longer to convert, but with how competitive the landscape for content and subscribers has become, don't be surprised if a few major stations or a cable provider (like DirecTV or Comcast) jumps at the chance to have something their competitors don't.
What do you guys think about Sony's home server? Do you think this is the best way to do it, with a combination of server downloads and Blu Ray discs? Does this interest you at all or are you happy with HD for the foreseeable future?

[via Notes On Video & The Verge]
We're all here for the same reason: to better ourselves as writers, directors, cinematographers, producers, photographers... whatever our creative pursuit. Criticism is valuable as long as it is constructive, but personal attacks are grounds for deletion; you don't have to agree with us to learn something. We're all here to help each other, so thank you for adding to the conversation!
HD is great. I honestly don't have any point of reference for 4K footage.. it seems like a ridiculous amount of resolution for most applications.. ie The Big Bang Theory. I assume it will eventually take hold, but until then HD is great. Living in a 1000 square foot apartment, an 84″ television is not an option. Apparently you need a tv that is 84 inches to take advantage of 4K signal.
Cool. Not practical for everyone… ie. me.
Antoine Serviette on 11.30.12 @ 2:48PM
Obviously the FIRST 4K TV will be really expensive and crazy, just like the first hard drives, DVD players (1000 bucks man) and so on. At CES they will announce a ton of more reasonably priced 4K sets, probably 3-4k range. And then by next year or so, you will see 4K LCDs going for sub 2k or 1500 prices, making them more accesible.
Now all we need is the PlayStation 4K to democratize it and bring it into every household.
cows on 11.30.12 @ 3:50PM
Before there is a 4K Playstation, real time rendering will have to be caught up as well: keep in mind that games will need to render four times as many pixels every frame, which doesn't necessarily seem worth it at this point.
Antoine Serviette on 11.30.12 @ 5:13PM
Resolution is something, at least in the gaming realm, that is always a top/sought after priority, along with frame rates. I stand by my assertion that a PS4k or whatever will happen within the next year or two, and 4K games and tv sets and monitors will follow. Don't ever doubt the progress of technology, shit changes really fast.
Nate on 11.30.12 @ 7:31PM
I'm with you. It would seem pointless to have 4k if your tv was anything sub 84 inch, and I can't see many people buying something like that unless they have specific made theater rooms to fit the thing. Also, professional installations anyone? Good luck with you and the wife putting that up.
It will be interesting to see what RED announces later today!!
guto novo on 11.30.12 @ 2:12PM
joe was right after all… 4K is coming faster than we imagine! ;)
fiew things I've learned from all this so far:
1.James Cameron says that 3D was the salvation of Cinema, separating it from TV, but, oops, 3D came into TV very quickly, so it was not the salvation after all.
2.RED prophets told us that, besides 4K being future proof. what makes same sense (not that film loves will forget for example "Zodiac" from fincher just 'cause it was shot in 1.9K, but they told us that 4K was what made the diference between TV and movies, but, agian, oops, if we can upscale more than 6 times with good quality into photoshop, now TV, probably can do the same real-time, it seems, and also 4K is not what makes cinema diferent from TV anymore.
3. James Cameron and Peter Jackson say cinema will be better if with higher frame rates, but, even mister master Douglas Trumbull says higher frame rates is NOT for every kind of stories…
Again, maybe what will make the diference between TV and cinema is at maximum, the big curved silver screen proposed by Douglas Trumbull, AND AS ALWAYS, great visions from singular individuals projected into it, or else cinema will die with the silver halogens, as it is already happening…
But I'm not a big guy in the "bussiness" of making art, so probably I said caca as always! :D
carlos on 11.30.12 @ 2:56PM
Film isnt going anywhere. It will evolve
guto novo on 11.30.12 @ 3:27PM
I'm not talking about the recording medium, but about the cinema as an experience at teather. I'm not a purist against digital ;). Anyway, hope you are right. :)
You mean photochemical film will evolve? I'd like to see that, actually. Where's completely grainless film Kodak once promised, again?
Daniel Mimura on 12.8.12 @ 9:47PM
Woah. Take a look at any kodak stock of any decade (excluding varieties of panchromatic film…aka b/w film which hasn't changed) and then look at a stock a decade later. Night and day different! They have evolved their stocks just slightly slower than Moore's "Law" has evolved digital cameras.
Grainless is literally impossible if you are talking about silver halide emulsion.
"Hard disc solution"
IE – this technology is not ready yet. It's a server that has nothing to serve you with. This is just a rat race to get a new product out the door.
We need better infrastructure in this country before this kind of product will be at all useful. FIOS has been "available" for years, but it feels like its still a beta product. I mean, only like 2% of Los Angeles even has access to it. Time Warner has a monopoly here and its garbage. Forget about 4k streaming until this gets fixed.
Look at South Korea's network. That's where we need to be aiming, if not higher.
That where Google Fiber could be a godsend for these markets that have been taken over by these cable provider monopolies (ie Comcast).
I would love to be able to upload HD footage to a client in an hour instead of 24 without having to pay hundreds for a business class cable subscription for my Home studio.
Tyler on 11.30.12 @ 4:54PM
But if we had the other part ready before this then everyone will be wondering what that would be worth.
> Everyone
Not me.
@dv sorry dude. I work at another huge cable company. fios is no longer expanding its network. It will only service areas where they have laid fiber. No more additional footprint.
I'm interested to see how The Amazing Spiderman will look in 4K when the effects were only done at 2K.

So I guess they will up-res the 2K, giving a very slight resolution advantage? And it'll be a little less compressed. And I guess the chroma resolution will be greater since the original files were 4:4:4 2K.
Maybe they will also ditch the stupid, constricted 709 color space – since every 4K TV will likely be able to display a much wider gamut of colors, there's no reason they should restrict content.

I just wanted to see a good HD delivery before all this 4k insanity, we barely have a good codec for broadcast, why would I want more pixels in a 47 inches tv? my blueray still looks great. This redray thing will be basically used for dailies.

" Blu-ray "
Marcus on 11.30.12 @ 4:40PM
Oh yeah. 4K has arrived! $25,000 ?!?!?!. Yeah my grandma's finally throwing out her old flat panel HD and catching up with all of us. It's only $25,000. Whatever. i spent that on Powerball tickets this week.
4K is so far from being "Here". Other than the small market of professional houses, there is no demand for 4K. The average consumer knows nothing about this and won't for another 5 years.
Peter on 11.30.12 @ 4:43PM
I think the company best positioned to get out in front of the 4K era is…drumroll plez….
vinceGortho on 11.30.12 @ 5:54PM
4k may take longer than bluray to take off.
there is a lot of bluray content out there but not everybody has it.
Swested on 11.30.12 @ 6:09PM
BOOOORING. I'm waiting for my 8K set. With Smell-o-vision.
The Sony stores are actually displaying the 4k tvs in case any of you want to check it out. I saw the 80 something inch tv at the Sony store in Tyson's Corner, Virginia a few weeks ago. Pretty impressive. I asked them whether it was real 4k footage and they said yes. Footage was sent from a PC. $24,999 + tax:p
Are Sony re-conformed Total Recall and Spidey in 4K? If not, this is very funny, because both films were finished in 2K for theaters.
Zan Shin on 12.6.12 @ 4:14PM
I can hear it now: Canon fanboys howling about how the entire season finale episode of House was shot on a 4K DSLR…
V. Anand on 12.6.12 @ 10:55PM
I guess at the moment 4k TVs @ 84 inches would
probably be restricted to Trial theatres for film makers,
technicians and friends and/or Dubbing theatres.
But what I am really waiting for is that grainless film
from Kodak, which could outlast all the 2k, 4k or 8k digital
improvements for my archival print. Technology is changing
so fast, what about storing the material in some physical
form which is easily readable and will not require a machine
which outdates itself in 3 to 4 years? But can be scanned easily
on any new innovation?
Steve Muulen on 12.7.12 @ 12:09AM
Why assume the 4K movies would be streamed and so need a super speed connection? They wouldn't need to be. Choose a movie at work and a few hours later it will be on a hard drive at home.
Why assume 84″ is too big? In a 800 SF apt in NYC I had a projector with an 84″ screen. Just right for movies!
Why assume the cost is too great. In 3 years 4K will just be HD in price. It has to drop fast because Japan has 8K in the labs for 5 years from now.
Daniel Mimura on 12.8.12 @ 10:06PM
Does anyone remember Divx?
Not the torrent format originally called Divx:)?
The industry tried the server/locked into your TV, Big Brother style back in the 90′s. Thank god that lost and we went with DVD instead…
…but it's coming back! They would rather you rent than buy, that way you're locked into their system, their content…
In another way entirely, I don't think we're ready for 4k as far as the pipeline. I'm not convinced yet b/c I only stream stuff from Netflix to my laptop, not to my TV. I get blurays for watching content on my TV b/c the compression with streaming is awful. If you download it, it's gonna take forever to download, which means a new faster than high speed internet, or all those flaws that make it take forever to download as it is today is just gonna be that much worse with the flaws presented 4 times larger. And lately, some netflix streaming films are starting to have that bleedy smoothing crap like people who set up their tv's "wrong". It makes everything look like a Michael Mann movie or that I'm tripping MAKE IT STOP ARGHHHH!!!

WASHINGTON — Do Americans have better access to health care?
Insurance cards, on their own, are not very much fun. In fact, they're probably among the more boring pieces of plastic you own. Nobody pays hundreds of dollars each year in premiums to get a small plastic card; they do it for the access that card gives to insurance coverage. So another metric to measure the ACA is whether Americans have an easier time seeing the doctor, for example, or meeting their medical needs without financial hardship.
This is true both for those gaining coverage under the health law and for those who already have it. One metric researchers were really interested in comes from Massachusetts, where they can measure what happened to those who already had coverage when many more people gained access to it. They can look at this by researching wait times to see doctors and surveying the general population about whether they can afford the care they need more easily. A much-watched study of Oregon's Medicaid expansion -- where coverage was assigned randomly, by lottery -- was one example where researchers showed a reduction in financial hardships when Oregonians enrolled in the public program.
Are Americans getting healthier?
The whole idea of health insurance -- as the name pretty bluntly implies -- is improving health. That's why this is another metric that will likely be tracked with the ACA, whether the insurance expansion is making the population healthier.
Proving a link between health insurance coverage and health status improvement can be challenging. Trips to the doctor are, obviously, only one factor among dozens that contribute to an individual's physical well-being. That same study of the Oregon Medicaid expansion showed a 30 percent reduction in depression rates, but found no short-term impact on physical health measures, such as cholesterol and blood pressure.

Two people were taken to the hospital after a Greyhound bus crashed in Gallatin County on Monday morning.
It happened around 10:15 a.m. on northbound Interstate 71 at the 68 mile marker, according to GC Video News. Deputies say 52-year-old Willie Marsh of Birmingham, Alabama was driving the bus on its way to Chicago.
Marsh came up to stopped traffic caused by a separate crash and had to drive on an embankment behind a guardrail to avoid hitting vehicles in front of the bus.
About 30 passengers were on the bus. Two people were taken to the hospital with back injuries that were non life-threatening.
The rest were taken by a bus provided by the Gallatin County School District to meet another Greyhound bus.

Tagine refers to the covered cooking vessel in which a dish like this would be prepared as well as the dish itself. You can use a heavy covered brazier or Dutch oven. This sweet and hearty version of a tagine has slow-cooked squash chunks bathed in spices, prunes, whole shallots, garbanzo beans, garlic, and almonds.–Robin Asbell
LC (Snigger) Note
Why are you sniggering and turning red? We said brazier, not brassiere. (If, like us, you're wondering exactly what brazier means, the term originally referred to "a receptacle for burning charcoal or coal." It later came to mean, well, you can figure that part out, given that we're offering a recipe for it.)
Moroccan Squash Tagine with Garbanzos and Couscous Recipe
- Quick Glance
- Serves 6
- For the squash tagine
- 3 tablespoons olive oil
- 10 small shallots, peeled
- 8 medium garlic cloves, peeled
- 1 1/2 pounds winter squash, peeled and thickly sliced (4 cups)
- 1/4 cup slivered raw almonds
- 12 large pitted prunes, halved
- 2 tablespoons slivered or grated lemon zest (from 1 large lemon, preferably organic)
- 1 tablespoon grated fresh ginger
- 1 cup vegetable stock
- 1 15-ounce can garbanzo beans, drained and rinsed
- 1 tablespoon honey or agave syrup
- 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1 pinch saffron threads, crushed
- Salt
- Cayenne, to taste
- 1/2 cup chopped fresh parsley
- For the couscous
- 1 1/2 cups vegetable stock or water
- 1 cup cousous, preferably whole wheat
- 1/2 teaspoon olive oil
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- Make the squash tagine
- 1. In a Dutch oven or other heavy pot with a lid, heat the olive oil over low heat. Add the shallots and garlic and cook until they're golden and sweet, at least 10 minutes. Add the squash to the pot and stir to coat it with oil. Continue to cook, stirring frequently, until the squash turns brown at the edges.
- 2. Add the almonds, prunes, slivered lemon zest, and ginger and cook, stirring occasionally, until the almonds start to color. Add the vegetable stock, garbanzo beans, honey, cinnamon, and saffron and increase the heat to bring the mixture to a boil. Cover, reduce the heat, and gently simmer for about 10 minutes, until the squash and vegetables are tender when pierced with a paring knife. Season with salt and cayenne pepper to taste.
- Make the couscous
- 3. While the tagine simmers, bring the vegetable stock or water to a boil in a small heavy saucepan. Add the couscous, olive oil, and salt and stir. Remove from the heat, cover, and let stand for 10 minutes. Then uncover the pot and fluff the couscous with a fork. If necessary, cover to keep warm until the tagine is ready.
- 4. To serve, heap some couscous onto plates or into bowls, spoon the tagine over the top, and sprinkle with the parsley.

Reviews for Turtle Cheesecake
Sort By :
There's a lot of cheesecake in this cheesecake. It's a richer flavor but very good. I liked the crust and have made it for other cheesecakes I've made also. My only complaint is that the layer of caramel on top of the bottom crust made the slicing of pieces a bit more difficult because it was hard and sticky. Other than that it was delicious.
I made this for a rehersal dinner, it was soo good.
I made recipe as written, but used all lower-fat Neufchatel cheese with no problems. I would suggest wrapping bottom of springform pan in foil as I had melted butter seep out, which then burns and smokes. Make sure to read recipe to the end--has to be chilled overnight for best result.
My family has been making this recipe for YEARS!!!! Every Thanksgiving and Christmas it is made, and visitors ALWAYS rave about it! Definitely one that MUST be tried!
RAVE reviews on this cheesecake. Easy to make and fantastic flavor. No one in my house could stop at just one piece!

The Seattle Seahawks rebounded nicely from last week's 20-16 heartbreaking loss to the Cardinals, dominating the Dallas Cowboys in all aspects of the game en route to a 27-7 home victory. With Marshawn Lynch (122 yards, one touchdown) anchoring a bruising ground attack, Seattle was able to efficiently run out the clock after securing a solid second half lead.
The fine gentlemen over at Field Gulls were obviously quite satisfied with the results but that didn't stop editor Danny Kelly from being a bit critical of Russell Wilson's game managing skills. Still, Kelly was pleased overall with what the rookie quarterback brought to the table in the first victory of his NFL career:
"There were some very shaky moments, especially early on ... but Wilson played much more efficiently in the 2nd half. It's encouraging that in his first two NFL starts, Wilson improved as the games have gone on, but that said, he still left a lot of throws on the field and certainly looked like a rookie at times."
Kelly also had some good things to say about the Seahawks defense after their disciplined and disruptive showing:
"...the Seahawks flew around, made big hits, and looked to simply wear down the Cowboys as the game went on...Tied with the Jags for lowest offensive output on the week, NFL-wide, were the typically high-octane offense of the Cowboys, who only managed seven points against an inspired Seahawks' defense. I'll take it - especially because I really do respect the Cowboys' talent - I like what they've done with their roster and think there's a solid chance this will be a playoff team."
The Seahawks will look to build on this momentum when they face off against the Green Bay Packers on Monday Night Football next week.
If you're a Seahawks fan looking to join the conversation, head on over to Field Gulls. If the Cowboys are more your cup of tea, pay a visit to Blogging the Boys.

Neither is a 1 or 2...
Something other people have noticed lately that is also starting to trouble me is that Hartline and Bess just can't seem to keep their damn feet for whatever reason. It's just bizarre. Bess seemingly can't even catch the ball without going to the turf or moving backward, and Hartline really just seems completely incapable of finishing off a great play and scoring a touchdown.
I like both players, but I think one or both of them should be replaced with someone who can produce touchdowns.
I'm here to tell the truth about top secret Air Force project BAR STOOL. Gamma ray radiation from the particle accelerator under Joe Robbie Stadium is real! Get out while you can! This bad football team is just a front for something far more sinister!
Yea.. nice yards stats... how many touchdowns do they have again? That's all I care about.
I'll repeat and add...
If we add a solid FA wide receiver, then draft an appropriate matching talent at WR, we'd have WR covered. What is left for the offense? Tweaking the O line is all. There are 3 capable RB (4 if you include FB), 2 TE, 2 QB, we'd have 4 WR (5 if Matthews improves over the off season). Yep, almost done mode. The team could then focus on DBs and another pass rusher.

College life for Caroline Radaj was fun, but stressful. That was before she got shingles.
"It felt like either I had a pinched nerve or that just someone was constantly stabbing me," she said.
When a rash combined with the pain, a campus doctor was surprised to confirm it was shingles.
"It's something that happens in older people, so for it to happen to a young college student, they were a little bit baffled at that," said Radaj.
Dr. Scott Harris of Decatur is a specialist in infectious diseases.
"Shingles is a very painful rash, and it only develops in people who previously had chickenpox," said Harris.
He said the varicella virus stays with you for the rest of your life.
"It's actually uncommon to have it over and over, although some people do. Most of the time people have just one episode, but then they have some residual pain that lasts for a long time," he said.
Researchers say cases are up across the board, in all age groups.
Barbara Yawn is one of those researchers.
"Instead of maybe one every three or four months, you may be having two or three each month in the college that stands out," said Yawn.
Researchers don't know why it's on the rise.
"We've looked at several factors like are there more people that are immunosuppressed? Was it around the time of the chicken pox vaccine in children? That isn't true. Did it have to do with when antivirals were introduced? No," said Yawn.
Basically at this point in their research there are more questions than answers. They also don't know if these younger patients will get it again.
"If you've had shingles before, that's not a reason to stay away from the vaccine," added Harris.
Harris said while it's not as common in college age kids, it usually strikes someone with a compromised immune system. The vaccine is only used on people over age 50, which is not much comfort to people like Caroline.
"Hopefully, I don't get it again," she said.
Researchers are hopeful for more answers soon, and they expect the numbers of younger patients to drop because many had the chicken pox vaccine.

This is awesome news! Jefferson is still friends with Gordon and has been recruiting him according to Bonnell. This would really be best case scenario for us since he can play both 2 and 3.

Instead, she takes on a high-profile case, the torture and murder of a young Bosnian refugee. When her prime suspect turns out to be a minor war criminal, Tennison meets resistance from her superiors, struggles with ambitious underlings, and uncovers buried secrets. Her career now at risk, she realizes she has little else left in her life and everything to fight for.Guest stars include Ben Miles (Coupling, The Forsyte Saga), Robert Pugh (Master and Commander), Clare Holman (Lewis), Frank Finlay (The Pianist), and Mark Strong (Sherlock Holmes, Syriana).

»spare parts« is the long awaited new album from the sonic laboratory of austrian based »psycho-physio« musican pomassl and the latest example of his interest in deconstructing musical structure and testing the limits of hearing.
still retaining his distinctive style, but with much more mature arranged elements and carefully structured sections, compared to his earlier output. dabbling and blurring experimental and advanced pop. it is pomassl's full-lenght debut for the german raster-noton imprint, after several collaboration contribution for the label.
producing this album, pomassl has explored his arsenal of armaments with the initial use of original generators and synthesizers (polivoks, ritm-2) from soviet fabrics, manufactured in the 80's, beside as always he uses a combination of prototypical self-customized electronic instruments versus state of the art technology. whilst taking the listener in the opposite direction via abstracted pieces »atenna atoll« and »allied nippon« and furthermore experimental tunes »l>-
pomassl is executor of the seminal »trail error« (1996) album, one of the first records to really explore very low and very high tones as well as pioneering potentials of digital errors in terms of electronic music, a record which has inspired many fellow analog and digital artists, released on the laton label which he co-founded in the early 1990ies. beside with the »skeleton« vinyl series he released a number of cutting-edge minimal techno records, starting from 1997 on viennese sabotage/craft label.

By Maureen Hayden CNHI Statehouse Bureau
---- — INDIANAPOLIS — Indiana is joining a growing number of states adopting tighter controls on how doctors are prescribing some of the most commonly used narcotic painkillers, in an effort to curb what public health officials call an epidemic of prescription drug abuse.
Late last week, the Indiana Medical Licensing Board adopted a set of emergency rules that call for drug testing of pain-medication patients, more screening and monitoring of patients by doctors to detect drug addiction and abuse, and a mandatory "treatment agreement" between doctors and patients that's focused on improving health and not just alleviating pain.
The new rules — which serve as the basis for permanent rules to come — were adopted the same week that the federal Food and Drug Administration recommended tougher restrictions for the most widely abused prescription drugs that contain the narcotic hydrocodone, such a Vicodin, Lortab and their generic equivalents. The FDA restrictions, if passed, would reduce the number of refills patients could get before going back to see their doctor and would require patients to take a prescription to a pharmacy, rather than have their doctor call it in.
"These are big first steps, but we still have a long way to go controlling access to some very dangerous drugs," said Republican state Sen. Ron Grooms, a retired Jeffersonville pharmacist who sponsored the legislation that lead to the new state rules.
Grooms and members of a statewide drug abuse prevention task force that helped craft the new restrictions expect pushback from patients and doctors who've grown accustomed to relatively easy access to the commonly prescribed medications used to treat pain from arthritis, injuries, dental extractions and other problems.
But it's grief they're willing to take, given the explosion of people dependent on painkillers and the rise in overdose deaths.
"We knew if we didn't get ahold of this problem now, it was going to be one of those things that we'd never get ahold of," said Dr. Deborah McMahan, the Allen County Health Commissioner and chair of a statewide task force of medical and legal experts who helped craft the new prescribing rules.
In 2012, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention called prescription drug abuse the fastest-growing drug problem in the U.S. From 1999 to 2009, the number of deaths nationwide from opioid painkillers such as hydrocodone and oxycodone nearly quadrupled — causing more deaths than cocaine and heroin combined. A recent study by Trust for America's Health found Indiana has the 17th highest drug overdose mortality rate in the country.
Drugs containing hydrocodone represent a major share of the drug overdoses and some public health experts believe tightening the rules governing how opioid-based painkillers are prescribed will curb their abuse.
The painkillers being targeted by the new restrictions are widely prescribed. In 2011, the federal government estimated there were 131 million prescriptions written for hydrocodone-containing drugs.
"You've got to believe those numbers are even higher now," said Grooms.
Grooms sponsored what's known as the "pill mill" that gives Indiana Attorney General Greg Zoeller new authority to crack down on pain-management clinics around the state. It gives the attorney general's office more access to medical records maintained by pain clinics and requires every pain management clinic in Indiana be owned and operated by someone who holds a valid registration to prescribe controlled substances.
But the law also called for the state Medical Licensing Board to put new protocols in place for prescribing opioid-based drugs. Dr. Amy LaHood, an Indianapolis family physician who helped write the rules said they were needed to target doctors "used to writing out 'scrips and just walking out the door."
The new rules are aimed at curbing dependence on pain-killing drugs and their illegal sale to drug abusers. The new rules require doctors to do more screening of patients before prescribing the drugs, including the use of the state's online database that tracks prescriptions for controlled substances.
They also requires patients undergo a urine or saliva drug-monitoring test before they get a prescription. And they require doctors and patients who are prescribed painkillers to sign a mandatory "treatment agreement" that compels doctors to disclose information about the potential for addiction.
The new rules reflect the increasing attention that states are paying to the problem of overprescribed painkillers. In Alabama, the legislature passed a series of laws last year aimed at curbing access to narcotic painkillers, including making "doctor shopping" to get multiple painkiller prescriptions a Class A misdemeanor punishable by up to a year in jail.
The Washington state legislature has set dosage limits for doctors who prescribe pain medicines. Patients prescribed higher dosage amounts are required to get a second opinion from a pain specialist.
Also in 2012, Kentucky passed laws requiring the licensing of pain clinics and gave law enforcement officials greater access to the state's prescription drug monitoring database.

This book records the design work and ephemera that survived in Richard Negri's personal archive, discovered in a large cardboard box found after his death in 1999. Also included are production photographs that reveal the link between the designs and their realisation, many of which were discovered in the Mander and Mitcheson and Victoria and Albert Museum's theatre collections.
Supporting my work on the book, and the website dedicated to Negri's work, I was fortunate to receive research funding from the University of the Arts, London that enabled a series of interviews with some of Negri's key colleagues and collaborators: Bernard Cribbins, Frank Dunlop, George Hall, Ronald Harwood and Richard Pilbrow. The interviews were conducted by Lydia O'Ryan and the full recordings are now held in the British Library.
Transcripts of interview excerpts, (together with some of my own with the designer Johanna Bryant, actress Avril Elgar, lighting designer/production manager Michael Williams and the Negri family) are threaded through and underpin the book's narrative.

Not long ago, players and teams hit the deadline to submit filings for arbitration. Tim Lincecum submitted a record request for players with less than six years of service, while the Giants submitted a record offer for players with less than six years of service. It looked like it could be quite the story.
Of course, Lincecum and the Giants aren't actually going to arbitration. Two years ago, Lincecum and the Giants almost went to arbitration before they agreed to a two-year contract. This time around, they didn't wait so long, as another two-year contract is in place. Hank Schulman:
Timmy gets two years, $40.5 million
Recently, the Giants reportedly offered Lincecum $40 million over two years, while Lincecum countered with $44 million over two years. The Giants won that negotiating round, I guess.
So, a two-year contract. This contract buys out Lincecum's remaining years of arbitration eligibility and nothing more, as he's still set to become a free agent after the 2013 season. Long-term contract talks, of course, could continue, or start up at a later date. Lincecum is by no means guaranteed to hit the market.
If you add everything up, Lincecum will have made nearly $70 million by the time this deal is up. That's nearly $70 million before hitting any free agency years. One wonders if that would make hypothetical free agent Lincecum less determined to get the biggest contract possible. One cannot know the answer, so one needn't speculate. For now, Tim Lincecum remains a starter for the San Francisco Giants, and now he won't have to sit in a hearing while a team representative points out his flaws in front of a judge. Not bad.

The ST-E3-RT is just that, a 600RT minus the flash head. The only advantage to using a 600RT as a master is to utilize its light output and its AF assist beam.
my recommendation would be to get two 600's and one ST-E3 and you'll be able to have a tremendous amount of flexibility.
Plus you need to remember that the ST-E3 will be better balanced on your camera than a 600.
Will get two 600s and one ST-E3
So far, the best prices I could find: EX600-RT = £348 and ST-E3-RT = £226

Academic Experience:
Everyone professors, staff and students are willing to help anyone. Everyone is treated fairly and not judged by their income or social status. I have not had any problems finding answers to anything I need. I would recommend any Native student to attend HINU.
Academic Experience:
The degree I want to receive in Education has all the classwork and courses I need. I can even earn my teaching certification here and unlike most Universities, I do not have to wait and take extra classes. All my professors are helpful and this is the only University I know of that considers family situations such as serious illnesses or the death of family members and give the student time to attend to these needs and give them time to make up their work when they return. The workload is great and we have lots of discussions in all of my classes. The professors are helpful in any area we need help in. The class registration process was much more organized than the first University I attended.
Academic Experience:
It has been great. I love my major and cannot wait to be a teacher.
Academic Experience:
My campus is very small so there is a very low teacher-student ratio. The curriculum is amazing and the registration process is fairly easy.
Academic Experience:
The Elementary Education program that I am in is the only nationally accredited tribal program in the nation. It is the only program at Haskell that requires you taking classes for the program before you get into the program. The workload can sometimes be overbearing, but there is a lot of information that you need to know and understand as a teacher. One of the best things about our program is that instead of only doing student teaching for one semester in the spring, you are in the same class for the entire year. You get to see what the first day of school is like and you are able to see how the classroom is run before you start your student teaching. Our facilities could be a little better. It is an older building and the heating/cooling unit is not always the best for the weather. It can either be extremely cold or really hot.

Foreign Office: Prisoners of War and Aliens Department: General Correspondence from 1906
This series contains records of the Prisoners of War and Aliens Department, and is one of the series of Foreign Office records arising from, and employing, the FO central registry system for correspondence for the period from 1906. The records in FO 383 relate to the imprisonment or internment of members of the armed forces, civilians and merchant seamen during the First World War, both allied and foreign, and during the period following the Armistice, leading up to the conclusion of the various peace treaties with the enemy countries in 1919.
The correspondence concerns prisoners and internees in all the First World War theatres of war. Apart from relating to the UK, the records are designated according to the countries and territories specified in the FO's correspondence system from 1906 (these are the countries and territories which are stamped on the actual documents and which appear in the first line of the individual catalogue descriptions for each piece). Specifically in FO 383 these countries and territories are as follows: Austria-Hungary, Balkans, Belgium, Egypt, France, Germany, Italy, Netherlands, Russia, Scandinavia, Spain, Switzerland, Turkey, America, and Portugal. It should, however, be noted that there are also references to prisoners and internees in various other countries. These include British dominions and colonies where there were prisoner camps (in particular Australia, Canada, India and South Africa) or internment issues (for example, in Ceylon, New Zealand, Gibraltar, Malta), but also German colonies in Africa and the Pacific, together with other countries in Europe, the Far East, North and South America, Africa, and the Middle East.
Several of the prisoner of war and internment camps feature prominently in the records, particularly Ruhleben camp near Berlin in Germany. There are papers concerning many other camps and places (including ships) of internment in the UK, such as Donington Hall in Leicestershire, Alexandra Palace in London, Lofthouse Park camp at Wakefield in Yorkshire, the Channel Islands and the Isle of Man (notably Knockaloe camp, and also Douglas), and also overseas, particularly Australia (at Liverpool, NSW), India (at Ahmednagar, near Bombay) and South Africa (at Pietermaritzburg), and others.
At government level, there are high-level policy documents relating to negotiations between the British and German and other foreign governments (through the channel of a neutral foreign embassy, primarily the USA until they joined the war in 1917) on policy matters such as the age limits for release or repatriation of prisoners, and issues such as reciprocal schemes for the repatriation of sick and injured prisoners. These documents also reflect the activities regarding requests to the neutral power to carry out inspections of prisoner camps in both countries, and to ask for investigations into particular cases. These include investigations into alleged breaches and violations of the Geneva Convention(s) and The Hague Convention of 1907. There are also documents in respect of the frequent contacts by the Foreign Office with other UK government departments about the advisability of repatriating certain prisoners or the fate of prisoners. There are also papers relating to specific outstanding cases, such as the shooting of the British nurse Edith Cavell.
No overall consolidated nominal list of prisoners of war survives, but many FO 383 documents contain lists (of variable size and content) of individuals, including prisoners and civilian internees of both sides.
The correspondence in these records originates from a variety of sources. There is a large quantity from the prisoners and internees themselves, as well as from their friends, relatives and other interested parties, such as Members of Parliament and representatives from neutral consulates who acted as the liaison points between the hostile countries. Requests include those by relatives to send money and food parcels to prisoners; or by firms to send clothing or sports goods ordered by prisoners, or enquiring after the welfare of their interned employees. The mediation of the International Red Cross, the Vatican, and foreign royalty is represented; and the work of benevolent institutions and hospital units (often founded and run by society ladies, for example Lady Paget in Serbia), religious groups or trade unions. The content of the records is wide-ranging in reflecting many issues relating to imprisonment and internment, and includes the following recurring subject areas and key themes, amongst others:
- Enquiries into the welfare or fate of individual prisoners or groups of prisoners, and searches for missing soldiers and individuals in alien countries.
- Treatment of prisoners of war; official reports of camp inspections, interviews with escaped or repatriated prisoners, and conditions of prisoners of all nationalities and living conditions in camps (many of which are first-hand accounts by prisoners of their experiences).
- Nationality issues, including investigations into proof of nationality of individuals requesting relief and assistance, or from seamen removed from neutral merchant vessels.
- Arrangements for the compilation and transfer between governments of lists of prisoners, with many documents containing those lists.
- Individual requests for repatriation and financial assistance.
- Queries regarding the delivery of letters and parcels.
- Censorship of correspondence.
- Arrangements for repatriation or transfer of individuals to neutral countries.
- Personal papers, including applications for emergency British passports (most of which have photographs of the individuals and details of their family), and some birth, death or marriage certificates.
- Investigations into accusations of espionage and contraventions of alien restrictions legislation.
- Trade issues, such as trading with the enemy, and firms requesting whether they may supply prisoners of all nationalities with goods.
- Communications with missionary societies regarding missionaries in Africa and India.
- Property matters, including safety of houses, furniture and personal effects in the belligerent countries, and applications for assistance in recovering luggage and property.
- Relief organisations, including activities of the national British Relief Fund and private and charitable schemes.
- Red Cross activities in distributing parcels of food and medical supplies to prisoners, and the transmission of mail between prisoners and their families.
- Legal matters, such as transference of powers of attorney, the execution of legal estates following deaths of internees and prisoners, and the disposal of personal effects.
- Financial enquiries regarding individual insurance policies, bank accounts, share dividends, inheritances, pensions, deposits of securities, etc.
- Refugees, including treatment and care of refugees, such as the deportation of Jewish refugees.
- Casualties and survivors, including lists and reports from specific campaigns, or from lost ships and submarines.
- Visits, including requests by representatives of official and voluntary organisations or other individuals to travel to neutral countries, or foreign subjects to come to the UK.
- Consular and diplomatic arrangements.
- Minutes and agendas for meetings and conferences of various bodies and inter-departmental committees.
This is not an exhaustive list, and many other associated subjects are to be found amongst the documents.
Some documents include reports that are contained in the indexes to the First World War Unregistered Papers in WO 161/101 which do not exist in WO 161/95-100.
The series is arranged by date, and then by country or territory.
The individual documents in FO 383 comprise bound volumes within which are arranged files and dockets of correspondence. The file ranges appear on the spines of the volumes, together with the country or territory as designated by the Foreign Office central registry system from 1906. Those countries or territories are then stamped at the top of the individual docket covers for the correspondence within each volume. These internal docket covers also contain two numbers. The file number is the number in the top right-hand corner of the docket cover, either handwritten and preceded by 'F' or stamped 'File No'. The number appearing in the middle at the top of the docket cover is the specific correspondence number. The correspondence for each file number is then arranged in chronological order. All of the files adopt the number of the first correspondence docket number within the sequence of that file. Some files contain a different sequence of docket covers, included as enclosures.
The Prisoners of War and Aliens Department was set up in 1915 and functioned until 1919. It co-ordinated certain aspects of work concerning prisoners of war and internees carried on in other government departments, and was to some extent independent of the Foreign Office.
At the beginning of the war, the Treaty Department was given special additional responsibility for prisoners of war and aliens, but in 1915 this responsibility was passed firstly to the Prize Court Department, and then very soon afterwards to a separate Prisoners and Aliens (later Prisoners of War) Department, responsible for the treatment of prisoners of war and other aliens in the UK, the colonies, and the dominions.
In its co-ordinating role in respect of prisoners of war and aliens across government, the department was responsible not only for the treatment of military prisoners of war, but also for civilian internees. During the First World War, both sides set up internment camps to hold enemy aliens; these were civilians who were believed to be a potential threat and have sympathy with the enemy's war objectives. Internees were treated differently to prisoners of war as they were given privileges inside the internment camps (for example, playing sports and putting on theatrical productions).
The department's responsibilities therefore included the treatment of British prisoners interned in foreign camps, but also the treatment of foreign prisoners in the UK after the commencement of internment in the UK and Germany in 1914 following the start of the war:
- In the United Kingdom, the Aliens Registration Act was introduced on 5 August 1914. This and subsequent legislation required that enemy aliens of military age should be interned and others repatriated. The legislation required thousands of enemy aliens who were living and working in the United Kingdom to register with their local police station. People had to supply personal and employment details. From 28 November, it was decreed that everybody (British or foreign) must register with the police when moving into hotels or boarding houses. Internment camps (in addition to prisoner of war camps) began to be set up across the United Kingdom in a variety of locations, including an old wagon factory at Lancaster, the racecourse at Newbury, in London at Alexandra Palace and Islington, and other makeshift camps such as York and Frimley, and also internment ships moored at Southend, Portsmouth, and elsewhere. A number of these were unsatisfactory, and the bulk of the internees came to be housed on the Isle of Man, at Knockaloe and a smaller camp at Douglas. The alien civilian camp at Knockaloe, near Peel, was originally intended to house 5,000 internees, but by the end of the war some 24,500 were held there (effectively over half of the island's population), in wooden huts covering 22 acres split into 23 compounds divided between four camps each of which had its own hospital, theatre, etc. The wealthier men were allowed to live together in a special camp at Lofthouse Park near Wakefield in Yorkshire and in 'privileged' sections of other camps (for this they paid the Government a weekly sum, and in addition they were able to add many improvements to the official quarters provided). Officers were held at Donington Hall, a former stately home near Derby.
- In Germany, on 5 November 1914, all British males within Germany became subject to internment. These individuals came from all aspects of society, and included merchant seamen, individuals from the professional classes and business community, as well as academics, students, sportsmen and even travellers and holidaymakers. A racecourse near Berlin named Ruhleben became the principal prison camp for the men, who were then interned en masse. During the First World War the camp at Ruhleben had over 4,000 internees.
The Prisoners of War Department, which became virtually independent in October 1916, was wound-up in 1919.
