Purple Coneflower
Purple Coneflower (Echinacea purpurea) is a perennial herb with stems 2-5 feet long, droopy lavender ray flowers, and spiny brown central disk flowers. (The name of the genus comes from the Greek work echino, which means hedgehog) The blooms are long-lasting, and can be found in bloom from April-September. They prefer full sun to partial shade, and well-drained, dry, sandy soils. Because they are pollinated by butterflies, bees and hummingbirds, these are a nice addition to a pollinator garden. Echinacea's medicinial benefits have been utilized for many years. Today its flowers are a popular tea ingredient that is thought to increase white blood cell counts, while Native Americans used it to treat a variety of maladies, from cough to dyspepsia and a variety of other diseases.

Lancashire drivers told to lock out car thieves
6:00am Tuesday 26th February 2013 in News
DRIVERS are being warned it takes just five seconds for a thief to steal valuables from an unlocked car.
Police have launched a campaign encouraging drivers to lock their vehicles in a bid to drive down crime.
Last year 2,252 unlocked cars were targeted by thieves in Lancashire — 25.7 per cent of the 8,748 vehicle crimes reported across the county.
Officers will now be speaking to residents to highlight the consequences of not locking their vehicles and postcards will be distributed to remind people to lock up.
Chief Insp Steve Sansbury said: "Unlocked cars are easy targets for car criminals. If a passing thief sees something that may be of value inside a car, they will take their chances – especially if people make it easy for them by leaving their car unlocked."

Excellent ride report and photo essay on the Continental Divide trail by Stephen Golub. This was the trail that Anne had originally convinced me to ride before we left San Francisco in May, but the lure of the national parks (Yellowstone, Arches, Canyonlands, Capitol Reef, Natural Bridges, Escalante, Bryce, Zion, and the Grand Canyon) was too strong.
Poor Beagle lay fallow for 11 days while I R'ed & R'ed in La Jolla. When I went to start her up this morning and ... nada. The Mighty Beagle battery had been treated mighty poorly by me for the last couple of months, so I bought and installed a new one today. (Careful pouring in the acid!)
The kill switch is still holding firm with duct tape, but I spotted a small oil leak coming from the drain plug. Could be time to change the soft copper washer--or maybe just some dirt/sand on the threads, keeping it from making a tight seal. I'm not too worried. Next oil change I'll make sure everything is OK. (Have I really gone 2000 miles since Moab already? Sheesh.) Another casualty: the straps on my saddlebags--the ones that attach to the lower part of the frame--are gone. The right side strap was burned off by touching the exhaust, and the left side was chewed by the chain apparently. No biggie, the bags stay put across the top of the seat just fine without them. I aired out the tent and sleeping bag yesterday. The tent was still damp from when I packed it at Jacob's Lake almost two weeks ago. (Pew!) How do you wash a tent (and footprint and rain fly)?Posted by James McPherson at August 13, 2005 06:11 AM GMT

LONDON Ś Patients in hospital beds; star-struck teenagers in a TV show audience; pupils at a school for troubled girls; a 10-year-old autograph hunter.
All fell victim to the late British entertainer Jimmy Savile, police said, describing him Friday as a sexual predator who used his fame to find victims and deliberately targeted individuals who would not speak out against him.
A three-month police investigation yielded a staggering litany of sexual crimes: 214 offenses, including 34 rapes, over more than half a century, the majority of the victims under age 18. Police say they expect the number of offenses to rise as more allegations are investigated.
A police report published Friday describes a ōprolific, predatory sex offenderö whose celebrity unlocked the doors of institutions across Britain, from hospitals where he served as a charity fundraiser to schools whose pupils eagerly watched his television programs Ś and even to the prime ministerÆs country house, where he dined with Margaret Thatcher.
ōIt could be said that he groomed a nation,ö said Cmdr. Peter Spindler, head of the Metropolitan Police specialist crimes unit. ōHe was hiding in plain sight, but none of us were able to do anything about it.ö
The catalog of abuse provides the fullest accounting yet of the allegations against Savile, a cigar-chomping, platinum-haired TV and radio personality who died in October 2011 at age 84. SavileÆs elaborate funeral reflected his status as a popular entertainer and tireless charity worker, but a documentary broadcast late last year pulled the mask away, claiming that he was a serial sex offender who traded on his celebrity to prey on vulnerable children.
The subsequent police investigation more than bore out those allegations. Detectives initially believed there were between 20 and 25 victims. So far, 450 have come forward with claims against Savile Ś a scale of abuse police called ōunprecedented in the U.K.ö
Child welfare experts say SavileÆs fame helped him achieve that grim distinction.
ōSavile cunningly built his entire life around gaining access to vulnerable children,ö said Peter Watt of the National Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Children.
Savile set himself up as a sinister Pied Piper; children came to him. He hosted the long-running BBC music show ōTop of the Pops,ö which saw everyone from the Rolling Stones to the Sex Pistols perform before an audience of excited young people. Police say victims were assaulted in dressing rooms or groped during filming breaks. One victim was a teenager who said she was assaulted at the last-ever recording of the show in 2006, when Savile was nearly 80.
Savile also hosted ōJimÆll Fix It,ö a BBC TV show on which he granted the wishes of young viewers who wrote in with cherished plans. Police said Savile would sometimes visit the letter-writersÆ schools, and some of the offenses took place there.
ōHe could do anything he wanted,ö said Detective Supt. David Gray, who led the police investigation. ōHe could turn up at a school and say æIs anyone interested in meeting me?öÆ
He often visited a school for troubled girls, where pupils were allegedly offered cigarettes and trips in SavileÆs car in return for sex. The flamboyant star often drove a convertible Rolls-Royce.
ōHe only picked on the most vulnerable,ö Gray said. ōHe was clever enough to know the ones less likely to speak out against him.ö
Savile also was a fundraiser for hospitals, including Leeds General Infirmary in his northern England home town and the Stoke Mandeville spinal injuries center in southern England. Police said he committed 50 assaults at 14 medical establishments, including a cancer hospice and several psychiatric hospitals. Among his victims were ill youngsters confined to bed.
SavileÆs charitable work raised his profile and credibility. Recently released records show he lobbied Thatcher for government donations and tax breaks for charities.
ōI find it quite scary that people who had the power to stop him didnÆt use that power ... and he went on to do the most horrific things to people in the most awful circumstances,ö said Caroline Moore, who says Savile abused her as she recovered from a spinal operation at Stoke Mandeville in 1971.
Some Savile victims did speak out. Several women went to police to report Saville in 2003, 2007 and 2008, and senior prosecutor Alison Levitt said Friday that the entertainer could have been brought to justice while he was alive, if officials had pursued the allegations more vigorously.
The BBC Ś which has been strongly criticized for dropping an investigation into SavileÆs crimes shortly after this death Ś and several health bodies are holding their own inquiries into how Savile was able to get away with decades of abuse.
Peter Saunders of the National Association for People Abused in Childhood said authorities must be more prepared to listen to children who say they have been abused.
ōI want us to forget Jimmy Savile. He is not worthy of memory,ö Saunders said. ōBut I want us to remember his many victims.ö

The grassy knoll on the beach to relax on sun beds & enjoy the view, supermarket and patisserie just outside hotel.
Breakfast buffet was quite below par, then you allow for the huge price and it was really below par.... Althpugh high prices were expected!
leaving for Moorea
the hotel was dirty very poor meals don't waste your $
Location. The hotel is about 15 minutes taxi ride from the airport, but there is also a small shopping mall right outside, with restaurants and local shops, so you are not confined to the hotel's expensive meals. The grounds are lovely, and good views over to Moorea.
This hotel is poorly maintained - multiple minor repairs needed, but they all mount up to being very frustrating when you are paying such a huge amount of money to stay in an overwater bungalow. I believe that the jetty from the water bungalows, into the lagoon, was damaged due to weather. However, the two access points have just been left with ropes denying access and look very dilapidated. Being able to watch the tropical fish from the balcony was pleasant. this hotel lacks personal service and seems to be just another hotel in a big chain.
Pool area, staff, location
room was a little grotty, light fittings were old, tiles were marked, AC was very noisy.
Maids were helpful Sand bottom pool
Reception staff was uninformed, unhelpful and barely civil. Should not have to pay for more than 1 bottle of water per room No beach Restaurant was out of the first 2 entrees I ordered AND the first 2 wines we ordered.
Lake-like swimming pool Maids
Very rude, arrogat and non- helpful staff at reception. Having to pay for drinking water after one bottle for 2 people per day. Also have to pay for more than 2 coffee capsules per day. No beach At dinner, first 3 main dishes and the wine we ordered they were out of. Private transfer car we ordered for pickup at the airport wasn't there.
The staff we're exceptionally helpful and we're ready to offer advice on tours transfers etc. The transit room was very helpful, to be able to rest and use facilities whilst waiting for a night flight was such a relief. The sandy bottom pool was beautiful, and well designed.
Food was a little pricey though I understand this is the case in most of French Polynesia.
Beautiful location
Staff on strike and terrible service. The pool was shallow and very cold. The restaurants and rooms were extremely expensive!!! Not good value for the money.
The pool was amazing.
Cleanliness and service can be improve to comply with the Meridien standards
The hotel had a nice Tahitian dance program on Friday nights. Their sand-bottomed pool was very pleasant.
Unbelievably, this hotel sold our room for a half day to someone off the cruise. We were left waiting for our room until after 6 PM. Everything about this hotel was a little run-down and overpriced. In addition, service was generally only fair. All in all, this hotel and island could not compare with Hawaii!
Rooms and facilities tired. Check in hopeless. Tried to upgrade us to the room we had booked when we complained! Housekeeping poor. Restaurant very expensive for limited menu. Charging for shuttle to Papeete just silly. Badly needs refurbishing. Would not recommend.
The pool
We receive our room at 4.00 pm and we did not receive our Sharwood points
Very nice, but aging buildings. Great setting
They failed to book taxi, or take in consideration that we booked a twin room
Requested two beds, had a king. Not good after long flight and brothers!
The pool is beautiful. The room we had was very comfortalbe and had nice view to the pool and to the sea through the garden. The staff is very nice and very helpful.
The breakfast is not included in the price and very expensive.
The hotel has quite nice territory and nice sandy beach. beautiful sunsets from overwater bungalows facing right. Nice french restaurant new the beach
we had an overwater bungalow, but actually booked bigger room with ocean view in the main building. after first day in the hotel i realized that we were really lucky to get it, coz staying in the main building would be very noisy and not comfortable at all. the room we were supposed to have didn't seem to have ocean view at all. Our bungalow looked a bit tired and could be kept better. Mosquito net was with many holes and looked ridiculous and useless. the system of the air conditioning was placed right near the entrance door and was so noisy that it was absolutely not possible to use it during the night, we slept with the open balcony and it was ok for us especially since we were there during the rainy season and it wasn't too hot during the night because of rain and wind. the hotel is far away from everything, so if you want to go to the town be ready to pay about 35 USD one way for a 10 min. drive and much more expensive after 8 pm. Food in the restaurant was a bit expensive (as everywhere in French Polynesia thought) but nice. in general all of the above could be more or less ok if it was a standard 3 star hotel and costed two times less.
Nice and helpful staff, clean and big size oceanview room, very comfortable bed.
The overwater bungalows are useless and very expensive, but no chance to connect a water and have private swimming, just a wasting money. No beach. The swimming pool is small. Overpriced food. No WiFi in the room, but it could be very beneficial for the hotel without beach and very expensive restaurants.
Too expensive.
Comfortable room. Good food.
Too expensive. Poor internet. No iron in the room. Breakfast too expensive.
Luxury resort
The resort had lovely grounds and pool. It was convenient to the airport.
I thought it was very expensive for what you got. We paid for a ocean view room (approx $350 AUD a night) and we could not even see the ocean.
- Very bad free internet in the lobby (it only gets OK if you pay) - Unfriendly breakfast delivery staff

I bet they have good food Uptown..."
Kai is a Pitt slave who lives in The Pitt in the year 2277.
Slightly depressed (obviously she hasn't taken to heart Midea's philosophy books, partly due to her illiteracy), Kai doles out the slop, a collection of partially digested and extremely disgusting meats and vittles from her table in the Market Square.[1]
She stands behind a sheet metal table, picking the nasty bits of bone and organ out of trog meat, and mixing it with water from the local rivers.
Interactions with the player characterEdit
Interactions overviewEdit
Effects of player's actionsEdit
- Kai seems to die automatically once the "Free Labor" quest is completed, even if she survives the battle between Pitt Slaves and Pitt raiders during the slave uprising.
Other interactionsEdit
- She will serve you one portion of slop upon each interaction for free, with a nasty comment on it.
- Kai holds 5 bowls of slop at a time, her stock is replenished the next day.
- Kai is the only source of slop in the game and will cease dishing it out after the player has completed the quest Unsafe Working Conditions and talked to Midea about fighting in the Hole.
|Other items
|Worn slave outfit or
tattered slave outfit
|Auto axe
Notable quotesEdit
- "I bet they have good food Uptown..."
- "I am working. You must be new here. I serve the slop to the other slaves. You want food, let me know. The good news is that this crap is nearly unlimited. But it's mostly radiated water and Trog meat, anyway. You want some or not?"
- "I'm not sure if this stuff will kill you faster than starvation or not."
Kai appears only in the Fallout 3 add-on The Pitt.

'Chances of Finding Black Boxes From Malaysian Jet Slim'
By IANS - SYDNEY
Published: 31st March 2014 08:15 AM
Last Updated: 31st March 2014 08:16 AM
Chances of finding the black boxes containing data that would presumably clear up the mystery of flight MH370 are dropping with every passing day, US military officers said Sunday.
The plane disappeared earlier this month in the Indian Ocean.
US Navy Capt. Mark Matthews said that it will be practically impossible to locate the black boxes, the "beepers" on which have a battery life of 30-45 days, before the batteries die somewhere in the area of 319,000 square km where the plane is being sought.
"Everything depends on how effectively we're reducing the search area," Matthews, who participated in the search for Air France flight 447, which crashed in the Pacific Ocean in 2009, told the Sydney Morning Herald.
Malaysia Airlines flight MH370 left Kuala Lumpur March 8 at 12.41 am and was scheduled to land in Beijing roughly six hours later. But it disappeared from radar screens less than an hour after takeoff.
Flight MH370 - carrying 227 passengers, most of them Chinese, and a crew of 12 Malaysians - had enough fuel to fly for 7.5 hours.
On Sunday, the Australian vessel Ocean Shield, equipped with a black box detector and an unmanned submarine vehicle, set sail from the southwestern Australian city of Perth and is expected to arrive in the search zone in three days.
Twenty-four days have passed since the Boeing 777 belonging to Malaysian Airlines disappeared.
Meanwhile, Australian authorities confirmed that the objects recovered Saturday from the waters off their country's western coast do not belong to the vanished aircraft.

I believe that it is a business owner's responsibility to give back to the community in some way if they expect to operate a successful business within that City. With SBEC over a long period of time, I have been able to work with a wide variety of people ranging from 10 year old entrepreneurs, to teens running a summer business and a vast number of professional business people who needed advice and mentoring to help them at various stages of their business cycles. As business people, we have all encountered the ups and downs, and through a sharing of experience and knowledge, we can assist others in smoothing over the bumps, provide an environment for change and growth and give feedback from a different perspective on the business in a supporting manner. It is a truly rewarding experience to see the expression on someone's face when they experience "the light bulb" go on during a mentoring, coaching or training session. Volunteering with SBEC has allowed me to stay close to the business community in Brampton, meet some extraordinary people over the years and learn something new from each and every interaction I have as a volunteer, which has allowed me to grow as a business person as well.

Staffordshire County Senior League Premier Division - Uttoxeter Town 2 Cheadle Town 1
Posted: March 12, 2014|
CHEADLE Town came away from the Oldfields ground bitterly disappointed, but they can hold their heads high after producing a performance that deserved at least a point.
The visitors had battled hard against the league leaders and took the lead, only to be beaten by a disputed equaliser and a goal scored in the eighth minute of added time.
Alex Wood went close for Cheadle in the 12th minute after being put through by Dan Rooksby, his low shot curling wide of the far post. Uttoxeter threatened through James Curley but a great tackle from Charlie Goldstraw took the ball away from the opposition's leading scorer as he was about to strike.
Wood had a good chance in the 26th minute, after receiving the ball on the edge of the goal area, but his shot ball high and wide.
Adam Cartlidge was winning all the high balls aimed into the Cheadle goal area as Uttoxeter won a series of corner kicks.
Uttoxeter changed tactics to try and keep their corner kicks short.
A well-struck free kick from Lee Bagley curled beyond the Cheadle defence and Harry Price headed just wide in the 40th minute.
A good exchange between Chris Coleman and Smith looked promising until a great tackle by Goldstraw took the ball away from Coleman's feet.
Another tackle from Jake Alcock prevented Coleman from making progress on the right side of the goal area. Alcock then fed Mark Kent in the Uttoxeter goal area, only for the latter to waste an opportunity in attempting to work himself into a better shooting position.
A wonderful strike from Alcock in the 51st minute forced a brilliant save from Langridge.
Cheadle kept up their attack and Lee Bagley was forced to play the ball to his keeper under threat from Alcock.
A poor kick was picked up by Kent, who carried on moving forward, only to see his shot blocked by Langridge and the ball spin away out of Kent's reach.
Cheadle's momentum persisted and the Uttoxeter defence began to make careless mistakes.
Cheadle got the goal their efforts deserved in the 65th minute when a long ball from Cartildge was raced onto by Wood to beat the advancing Langridge.
Uttoxeter drew level with a hotly-disputed goal in the 75th minute.
Matt Anthony dived low to get his hand on a loose ball, but it was kicked away by a Uttoxeter player and Cartlidge, in attempting to clear, sliced the ball into his own net.
Cheadle appealed for a foul on the keeper but after a consulting with his linesman, the referee allowed the goal to stand.
Cheadle refused to be rattled and battled right up to the end.
But with the end, and a draw, in sight, Uttoxeter snatched the winner from the penalty spot after Goldstraw was penalised for bringing down his man when stretching to tackle.
Bagley stepped up to fire into the bottom corner from the spot and Cheadle hearts were broken.

The Coyotes would seem to me to be the best kept secret in fantasy hockey. They're a lot like claymores in Call of Duty. At first you're like "why do I need claymores dude, I've got this assault rifle?" Then of course you try out the claymores, realize you can now use them to tactically defend any portion of the map and they're almost impossible for the enemy to counter. *mind blown*
(Apologies, we're 60 words into this post and I've already slipped into video game talk)
I'm not entirely sure why Phoenix doesn't get more attention in the national media. I'm all the way up in Toronto, Canada, and while we know a bit about the Coyotes (no, I don't mean this kind), most of the coverage is centered around Dave Tippet and his coaching tactics…oh, and how snazzy that jersey re-design turned out.
To the more die hard NHL fan, and more specifically to those in hockey pools, your team has become a great place to get value in the draft. I'm in one pool where inevitably Radim Vrbata will remain undrafted until the very late rounds. This year I remember asking out loud "why is no one drafting VRABTA! He scored 35 goals and routinely posts 240 shots, COME ON?! (I was already full of wingers and couldn't rectify the problem)
Well I'm tired of it, I want Vrbata, OEL, Yandle, the whole lot of them, to finally get some respect from poolies and end this Rodney Dangerfield level of disregard. Here are the 7 best kept Coyotes secrets in fantasy hockey that probably won't be secrets much longer:
Keith Yandle is a top 5 defencemen
He doesn't get the media hoopla of a Subban, Karlsson, or Byfuglien (although is he even a blueliner anymore?) but he finished tied for the most power play points and third in shots on a goal by a defencemen. After the big three are off the board, there is an argument for Mr. Yandle.
Shane Doan is a cyborg
Maybe it's the hair (yep, must be the hair) but I always forget that he's 37 years old. A 56 point pace is still fantastic value in the late rounds.
Vrbata remains the most underrated player in fantasy
There will be some that complain about 51 points and 263 shots as being "down". I don't. That still ranks him 11th in the NHL for shots and his dip in points may be partially explained by an uncharacteristically low shooting percentage of 7.6% (aka, bad luck)
Oliver Ekman-Larsson will win (ok that might be too bold), SHOULD win a Norris trophy one day.
Astute observers have known how good OEL is for some time, but this year marked the first time he has gotten some serious attention. In pools that count time on ice he is becoming an elite option (6th in the league at 25:53 per contest)
Mike Smith is still a serviceable low-end 2 or high-end 3 fantasy netminder
Sometimes I feel bad for Smith. He's often judged against the numbers he posted in 2011-12, totals that will be almost impossible to replicate (2.21 GAA and .930 Sv%). In fantasy, many poolies have gotten frustrated and discarded him as an option. While he may not be elite, the number of tenders starting 60 plus games remains small. If he can improve even slightly next year he could make for decent value as your second option.
Antoine Vermette and face-offs
He is like one of those online guys on EA's NHL 14 who has mastered the art of the face-off. So much so that you quit midway through the second period, tired of losing EVERY single draw, turn off the console, and curse your inanimate controller for letting you down.
Vermette finished second in the NHL for faceoff wins with 1005 (second to only Boston's Patrice Bergeron). It's a category that has been implemented increasingly in pools. It was an added bonus that Antoine finished with a decent offensive year of 45 points and 160 shots.
No one knows who Mikkel Boedker is
I'm convinced that this is solely because his name is so damned hard to spell properly. He really shouldn't be so far under the radar – drafted 8th overall in the 2008 draft he has the pedigree to be a consistent option. This year was a big step towards fantasy relevance with 51 points and 166 shots. I'm guessing he'll be around in the very late rounds of next year's draft, an absolute bargain.

Creek project trickles ahead despite spiking costs

The JPA's Director Len Materman is correct to say that "To build something now that doesn't take into account sea-level rise would be short-sighted," he said. "We wouldn't want the community in 10, 20 or 30 years to have to go back and rebuild what should've been done today."
With this same proactive reasoning in mind, it would also be short-sighted to design and build flood protection projects on the lower creek that do not take into account the well known and immanent conditions that are projected with the rapidly approaching filling in of Searsville Reservoir in the middle of the watershed. Flood protection measures along San Francisquito Creek must be designed to accommodate for the return of natural sediment transport over Searsville Dam as has been studied, estimated, and forecasted by Stanford consultants and with JPA coordination. The reservoir could fill in completely this winter with the highest sediment filling projections.
As with sea-level rise accommodation being incorporated into flood protection design, we don't want the community to have to came back in 10, 20, 30 years and have to rebuild what should be done now to ensure that forecasted sediment transport and hydrologic changes are also accommodated.
The JPA must ensure that flood protection designs and CALTRANS Highway 101 designs adequately accommodate fast approaching natural sediment transportation rates to the lower creek.

3 1/2 cups
milk, or more to taste
2 cups
old-fashioned oats
1 cup
canned pumpkin puree
1 teaspoon
ground cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon
1/2 teaspoon
ground ginger
1/4 teaspoon
ground allspice
1/4 teaspoon
ground nutmeg
2 tablespoons
brown sugar, or to taste
2 tablespoons
pecan pieces, or to taste
This is seriously one of the best things I've eaten in a long time. I made this on the stove instead of in the microwave, used half fat free evaporated milk/half regular 2% milk and I poured a little cold fat free evaporated milk over the top along with the brown sugar and pecans. All of us LOVED this oatmeal and wished there was more for seconds. But there was not. Next time, I'll double it. Excellent for cold winter mornings.
Quick and easy with great texture. I think I was hoping for more of a pumpkin pie flavor, rather than just squash oatmeal. I might try it with maple syrup or something. Great basic recipe for instant oatmeal, though! (Maybe apple-cinnamon instead of pumpkin?)

This was fantastic! My husband accidentally bought quick cooking oats, so I decreased the cooking time to 6 minutes in the microwave. I love that it's easy to control the amount of sugar in this recipe--less for me, a little more for my kids. This will be a Fall staple in our house. I can make up a batch and reheat servings before school. Thanks for sharing!
I thought this was pretty good. Definitely better than most pumpkin oatmeal recipes I have tried. I only had quick oats, so I had to use those. I would definitely recommend the rolled oats. I made 1/2 recipe and it made 4-5 servings. So, the actual recipe, written as is, would make at least 8 servings and not 4. I microwaved it for 8 minutes and it seemed just right. Be patient, it will take at least that long to thicken and the liquid to absorb. I sprinkled mine with the optional brown sugar and pecans. I definitely recommend them. I probably added a little more brown sugar than suggested. I then added milk to my dish, as I always do with oatmeal.
Follow recipe to the letter. But mine was super thick after 6 min. Nice flavor. Might make large batch and put in crockpot to cook overnight for an easy breakfast with company.
Didn't have allspice, but otherwise followed the recipe exactly. Everyone liked it. Keeper.
I tried this after cooking but before adding the optional ingredients--way too much salt, and not enough pumpkin. The saltiness was OK after I added brown sugar, but there still wasn't much pumpkin flavor. If I make this again, I'll omit the salt and increase the pumpkin.
This recipe is wonderful. I have had several friends ask me for the recipe. It is a great starter and then I add other ingredients to make it more personal. I use pumpkin spice, which is a mixture of all the listed spices. I used vanilla almond milk instead of milk due to a lactose issue. I also add a few drops of mexican vanilla. I do not care for pecans so I use walnuts instead. The first few times, I made the recipe as stated with my the changes listed in my review. Last week I added some fresh blueberries that were about to go bad. Mmmmm that was good. I have also added marshmallows if I really have a sweet craving. This recipe is so great! Kids love it too!

Flower murals and rose-colored walls draw guests into The Pink Nail & Spa like honeybees into a garden; cushy leather seats await them, as inviting as lush flowers. Guests plop comfortably into the chairs during manicures, pedicures, and waxing services. Creative Spa manicures and pedicures condition skin with elixirs infused with citrus oils, antioxidants, and vitamin E. Nail technicians also pamper the hands and feet with relaxing soaks and moisturizing treatments. During regular spa mani-pedis, the techs knead palms and soles and slough off expired skin with gentle exfoliation tools. Clients can also opt to pamper their whole bodies with more than a half-dozen types of massage therapy, including Swedish and deep-tissue treatments that melt pain, tension, and subcutaneous cheddar wheels.
Pink Nails Spa features beauty professionals who provide an array of services with a focus on organic ingredients including citrus-infused oils and healing antioxidants for fingers and toes. The Creative Spa manicure uses citric acid to exfoliate hands and diminish signs of aging. Other pedicures come infused with honey or chocolate to soothe weary feet and boost the mood of depressed noses. While nails get a lot of attention at the spa, clients can also opt for massage services and waxing.
Massage therapy is more than Luisa Berardi Caraballo's job—it's her calling. As the winner of the Distinguished Service Award from AMTA Illinois Chapter in 2012, the owner of Melrose Muscle Therapy is dedicated to helping others through the art and science of massage. She tailors treatments, such as Swedish massages, sports massages, and myofascial release sessions, to her clients' individual needs. Luisa teaches classes on couples' massage and infant massage for babies particularly stressed during tax season. She also frequently shares her massage musings on her blog, A Muscle Therapist's Thoughts.
Ixchel Muhlberger has at least two ways to treat each patient who walks into Mayan Moon Healing. First, the licensed massage therapist can use soothing massage strokes to increase circulation and ease muscle tension, not to mention relieve pain and even improve athletic performance. But for problems that massage can't help, she can call upon her background in Oriental medicine to provide acupuncture treatments, which improve energy flow and help promote the body's self-healing properties. Taking these two talents together, she can customize her treatments to address a wide range of problems, from anxiety and depression to chronic pain, migraines, and sleep disturbances. Though her massages and acupuncture treatments can help clients deal with all these issues, Ixchel specializes in orthopedic injuries, women's health, and pain management.
In her Today's Chicago Woman blog, Living Well and Beautifully, Tiffani Kim shares her thoughts on eating well, maintaining healthy skin, and dealing with stress. At her River North medical spa, she transforms these thoughts into action. A true renaissance woman, she?s also a fashion designer and artist. She creates a spa-like environment in which her legions of devoted readers can actively follow her online advice. Her staff of professional aestheticians and massage therapists exfoliates complexions with facials and soothes sore muscles with massages geared toward men, women, and teens. They also offer holistically minded acupuncture sessions and laser treatments that eliminate unwanted hair, tattoos, and spacecrafts illegally parked in the spa?s lot.

Thoughts on the HTC 8x and 8s?
I was personally surprised that HTC actually put more into it's unique features as an OEM. The dedicated amplifier, or music chip will definitely make a difference when it comes to sound quality and management and the front facing camera is like nothing we've seen before. Defiantly good for people who want to record video messages to their loved ones, or even sending one of your family now that you can all fit.
It also seems like they did a lot of work on design. Which we've seen with HTC before, but not on a Windows Phone. It's definitely a step up from the One X which I thought had the best Android design out there. The colours also seems to be a theme with Windows Phones, bar Samsung. Maybe Microsoft is kind of pushing that a little bit? or maybe it's a natural design trend in mobile phones? I don't know.
What do you guys think?

Eat here: Jam Cafe
Whether you're a vegetarian, meat-lover or health fanatic, this chic cafe offers an array of dishes you'll be sure to enjoy.
By Linda Bladholm
The Jam Café is a small, cool breakfast and lunch spot on West Avenue. Open a month, it's near the "fancy" Publix, and since it's never a good idea to grocery shop on an empty stomach, folks in the neighborhood stop in for a sandwich, smoothie or salad first. (The light bites are available until 8 p.m. every day but Sunday.)
Sicily-born owner Salvatore "Salvo" Catania worked in London and the south of France before arriving in Miami in 1997, working the front of the house at several trendy Beach restaurants and learning the business inside and out. Marianna Trejo, a fellow Italian, answered his ad for the new café and plans to take the food in an organic direction eventually. Emphasis is on high-quality cured meats and cheeses and Medaglia Doro gourmet coffee.
The café is open for breakfast, serving scrambled egg sandwiches (with ham, cheese or smoked salmon) on a bagel, jumbo croissant or whole-wheat bread. Healthful eaters can get a whole-wheat tortilla wrap with egg whites and spinach. Other morning favorites include the 6-inch croissants or brioche with jam, blueberry muffins, coffees and teas. The bread is from Le Chic bakery and the bagels are from New York Bagels, both on the Beach. Wi-Fi, newspapers and gossip magazines are complimentary.
Salvos' philosophy is to take something simple and make it extraordinary. For example, the prosciutto and fresh mozzarella sandwich with basil pesto is elevated by the good ingredients and fresh bread (all sandwiches can be made on ciabatta, whole wheat or jumbo croissant). Vegetarians can get a wrap with romaine, fresh mozzarella, cucumbers and grilled eggplant marinated in extra-virgin olive oil or as a sandwich that adds roasted red peppers and pesto. The grilled chicken panini has the pesto and peppers plus melted fontina cheese. Fish lovers will like
the tuna-salad sandwich or smoked salmon sandwich with spinach and capers.
The best salad for meat eaters is the Lombarda, based on baby spinach greens tossed in red-wine vinaigrette with roasted red-pepper strips, Kalamata olives and red onions topped with slices of Italian salami and grated shavings of Grana Padano cheese. For veggies only, try the spinach salad with sun-dried tomatoes and hearts of palm in lemon-herb vinaigrette.
Gym rats come for the smoothies in flavors like muscle man (tropical fruit with peach and OJ) and passionate picante (banana, OJ, passion fruit nectar, apple juice, and crushed red pepper flakes), while, for indulgers, the giant croissant with Nutella (big enough to share) and the tiramisu are great sweet endings at this hip little hangout.
The Jam Café; 1935 West Ave., No. 102, Miami Beach; 305-538-5877; 8 a.m.-8 p.m. Mon-Sat, 8 a.m.-3 p.m. Sun; Breakfast sandwiches $4.95-$7.50, salads $6.45-$10.95, sandwiches and wraps $4.95-$9.25, smoothies $4.95.
FYI: Delivery in the neighborhood.
