These tongs work great. They're very easy to clean. We use them daily and will most likely be ordering more. As always, Webstaurant's price is great.
Marolyn J. Posted on 03/29/2013
These tongs are great! I use for the color red for gluten free items! It helps to prevent cross contamination. These tongs are long and perfect for moving items around the pan.
Laura B. Posted on 12/19/2012
These tongs are good for serving fried chicken, french fries and other hot items on a buffet line! They are nice because you can color code the use of each tong!
Eric K. Posted on 09/24/2012
This is an excellent pair of tongs. They will last forever. No spring means no wear and tear. And the colored handles makes it easy to be health code savy. Which is what its all about. Happy and healthy customers equals repeat business. I love these, and so will you.

Methods and apparatus for providing virtual service selection in a multi-service communications system
Image Number 3 for
United States Patent #5418782
Methods and apparatus are disclosed for providing virtual service selection in a multi-service communications system wherein the service components of each of a number of basic services are transmitted to subscriber locations on one of a plurality different frequency channels. Each frequency channel may carry the service components of more than one basic service. A virtual service definition is generated for each basic service that specifies which of the service components carried on a particular frequency channel comprise that service. The virtual service definition for each basic service is periodically, and frequently, transmitted to each subscriber location on the frequency channel carrying the service components that comprise that basic service. When a subscriber selects a given basic service for output at the subscriber location, a decoder at the subscriber location tunes to the frequency channel carrying the service components of the selected basic service, extracts a virtual service definition for the selected basic service from the tuned frequency channel, and then obtains from the frequency channel the service components specified in the extracted virtual service definition as comprising the selected basic service.

Great location, not as busy as Positano. Great beach, fantastic views.
Very warm welcome, clean room, amazing views on rooftop terrace, easy access to public transport and restaurants.
The best location at the Amalfi Coast. Amazing scenic view, close to everything! Reasonable price! Can't wish any better! :)
We had a lovely room with a view. We had a place to park our car. This is absolutely essential on the Amalfi Coast if you are traveling by car. Once you get there and have your car safely stowed, you get around by bus. Reasonable rates, but this may be due to the lateness in the season. September is a great time to be there.
Nice view.
Tiny corner room. Broken air conditioner. Toilet vent outside terrace door on patio that stunk.
Friendly staff in great location. Lovely balcony and private access to beach below.
Location and beach

Only the location
Customer service, no reception area. They maake you arrive by 8:30 pm. Parking is extremely difficult! Could not go to dinnner due to blocked parking and lack of personel to ask. My husband got bitten by what looks like bed bugs. Terrible experience. Strange place. Never Again
Perfect location,wide choice for breakfast.Giuseppe is very kind.
Delicious croissant,home made marmelade of Enza the owner,professional staff
Fantastic location, right at Praiano town center yet quiet and relaxing, easy parking or take bus. One of the best view even along amalfi coast. Nice and Helpful staff. Big and clean room. Easy access to the beach.
INCREDIBLE VIEW! This was one of the highlights of our stay and we didn't want to leave. Staff were incredibly helpful and organised, bus stop s right outside the hotel and the views are jaw dropping of the coast and Positano just off to the right. It's a lovely walk along the roads to the villages and little restaurants. Breakfast was delightful with croissants, coffee, toast, marmalade, juice and yogurt. Definitely staying here again.
Fantastic location with outstanding staff. The room was beautiful, with a lovely view, but the staff really made this place - friendly, welcoming, and went out of their way to help us out. Would definitely stay here again!

Wi Fi works perfectly.Breakfast is served in a wonderful terrace,room is equipped with air conditioning and minibar.Staff is helpful.
Centrally located on the main road in praiano. Easy to get to the restaurants/shops of praiano & bus stops to connect you with other towns. Rooms cleaned & towels etc replenished daily. Beautiful views from the terrace
Wifi was only in public areas, not available in rooms. Walking to the beach, hundreds of steps there & back up! Parking is very tight, I couldn't exit the premises until the other guest came to move his car, at 11€ per day I expect to park comfortably. Cleaning staff did not knock when entering the room, opening the door while we were in bed. (DND signs are always helpful to have) Staff, whilst our questions were answered & requests fulfilled, it is always nice to encounter or communicate with someone who has P.R skills. Staff who are friendly & approachable leave a lasting impression, one we did not have while staying here.

Top ten RRReasons R is bad for you ?
R stands for programming language based out of www.r-project.org
R is bad for you because -
1) It is slower with bigger datasets than SPSS language and SAS language .If you use bigger datasets, then you should either consider more hardware , or try and wait for some of the ODBC connect packages.
2) It needs more time to learn than SAS language .Much more time to learn how to do much more.
3) R programmers are lesser paid than SAS programmers.They prefer it that way.It equates the satisfaction of creating a package in development with a world wide community with the satisfaction of using a package and earning much more money per hour.
4) It forces you to learn the exact details of what you are doing due to its object oriented structure. Thus you either get no answer or get an exact answer. Your customer pays you by the hour not by the correct answers.
5) You can not push a couple of buttons or refer to a list of top ten most commonly used commands to finish the project.
6) It is free. And open for all. It is socialism expressed in code. Some of the packages are built by university professors. It is free.Free is bad. Who pays for the mortgage of the software programmers if all softwares were free ? Who pays for the Friday picnics. Who pays for the Good Night cruises?
7) It is free. Your organization will not commend you for saving them money- they will question why you did not recommend this before. And why did you approve all those packages that expire in 2011.R is fReeeeee. Customers feel good while spending money.The more software budgets you approve the more your salary is. R thReatens all that.
8) It is impossible to install a package you do not need or want. There is no one calling you on the phone to consider one more package or solution. R can make you lonely.
9) R uses mostly Command line. Command line is from the Seventies. Or the Eighties. The GUI's RCmdr and Rattle are there but still…..
10) R forces you to learn new stuff by the month. You prefer to only earn by the month. Till the day your job got offshored…

Did you know that you could use beach sand to exfoliate your
skin? Exfoliating helps remove dead skin from the body's surface to reveal the
beautiful new skin underneath. The next time you're at the beach, try rubbing
some wet sand onto your legs for a quick skin fix (we recommend doing this in a
fancy yoga pose)! Rough, calloused feet? Bring your beach chair (and maybe a
fun summer read) close to the waves, sit down, and gently rub your feet on the
surface of the wet sand. Easy pedi for practically peanuts! Helpful fact: Many ladies even claim that sand exfoliation
banishes cellulite (those lumps and bumps on your thighs)!

Let the cameras in: Calling Pelosi's blinky bluff
Normally, I'd wonder how a politician could tell such a bald-faced lie while keeping a straight face.
But it's Nancy Pelosi, so she was undoubtedly able to maintain that same, blink-blink-blinky expression she always has without any difficulty at all. Via The Hill:
Pelosi tells C-SPAN: 'There has never been a more open process'
House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) defended Congress' work on a healthcare bill Tuesday saying the process has displayed historic transparency, just as C-SPAN mounts an effort to open the negotiations.
C-SPAN wrote a letter to congressional leaders Tuesday asking that TV cameras be allowed to film negotiations to reconcile the House and Senate versions of healthcare reform legislation.
But Pelosi said Congress has already been transparent throughout the process.
"There has never been a more open process for any legislation," Pelosi said at a press conference.
Pelosi also hinted that holding informal negotiations–likely without TV cameras–might be the most practical way to push the legislation through.
Patients First is calling Pelosi's bluff:
In response to CSPAN's request that cameras be allowed to capture the happenings of the House-Senate conference on health care, Speaker Pelosi responded that "there has never been a more open process." Yet, she won't let cameras in—in spite of President Obama's promise that the negotiations would indeed be aired on CSPAN.
Therefore, Patients First, A Project of Americans for Prosperity, will launch a website tomorrow: www.letthecamerasin.com. The Facebook page is already up and running and by tomorrow morning, people will be able to visit the website and sign a petition to demand that the health care legislative process be even more "open" by allowing Americans to see what is happening.
Make them walk the transparency walk.
Let the cameras in.
Allahpundit's got video clips a plenty. Take special note of "The Democratic Speaker of the House, laughing out loud — at a press conference — at what a shameless liar Bambi had to be to get elected."
Takes one to know one, eh, Nan?

Emeli Sandé - Radio 1's Hackney Weekend
Heaven Is A Place On Earth
Whilst fully cementing her place in the public's consciousness is an accomplishment that Emeli Sandé achieved in 2011, it was in fact the result of years of hard work.
An established friend of Radio 1 & 1Xtra, many will remember her stand out performance at Maida Vale for the 1Xtra Homegrown show two years ago, shortly after she was named a 'Hot 4 2010' by the network. In fact it was at one of our events years ago that she first met long time collaborator Naughty Boy, with whom she continues to regularly work with today.
Heavily backed by the likes of Annie Mac, Fearne Cotton, MistaJam and Reggie Yates, it was Zane Lowe who secured the first play of Heaven, her debut solo single which went straight in at Number 2. After triumphant TV appearances on Children In Need, the MOBO Awards, the X Factor, and a support slot on the Coldplay tour, Emeli is extremely excited about entertaining the audience at Hackney 2012, which will follow her UK tour earlier in the year.

Buffalo, New Yor...
Okay, so I have a terrible track record when it comes to finishing projects meant for my boyfriend. Somewhere in my closet right now there is an unlined blazer and cuff-less shirt. For some reason, I find menswear so frustrating that I just abandon projects. Anyway, I managed to see this one through to completion, much to my dude's delight (surprise).
The pattern wasn't too difficult. I obsessed over the welt pockets for a while… but I think they came out just fine. I had to do some major fit adjustments though, because my bf is quite a bit smaller than the smallest burda size. I took some out of the side seams, but I took most of the room out of the back, by pretty much extending and expanding the back darts. That seemed to work all right.
He seems pretty happy with it.
The vest itself is made with a stiff navy corduroy and the lining is just a cotton print that I dyed to a denim blue.

It looks almost professional-the custom fitting always takes forever, but it looks so good in the end. Nice job!
Apr 9, 2010, 05.25 AMby kelepso
Great job! Yes, men's clothes can be tricky because they are so many details, but I love it. I've never sewed women's clothes before and I am quite sure it would be frustrating for my first time too, but don't give up! It will become natural and second nature to you if you keep up the work.
Apr 8, 2010, 08.04 PMby soonsoon
Wow it looks awesome. i love the lining inside and the fact that you used it on the back to tie.

Happiness wouldn't exist, and we'd have no purpose to live... i agree with you. (Report) Reply
Sierra Staten
The Fact of Life
The fact of life is, we won't be happy all the time.
More than half the time we will be stressed.
But that shouldn't stop us from going outside;
From getting up after being pushed down.
Without the storm we would have nothing.
We would feel nothing.
Happiness wouldn't exist, and we'd have no purpose to live.
The fact of life is, without the bad times, we'd have no good times.

Theater Review: 'The Great American Trailer Park Musical'
Date: February 13, 2013
by: Paula Atwell | Theater Critic
"Trailer Park," now gracing Venice Theatre's Stage II, is an outrageously raunchy parody of so-called trailer-trash (read lower class) society. Written with some wit — book by Betsy Kelso and music by David Nehls — the show successfully skewers popular predilections of the lightly educated, but throughout the hilarious bombardment of jokes at their expense, it manages to show sympathy for all the ridiculously stereotyped characters. It may be loud and lewd, but it's not lacking in heart, and directed by Kelly Wynn Woodland, it goes by in the blink of an eye, punctuated by frequent chortling.
A parody is only as strong as the truth it seeks to exaggerate, and a musical only as good as its tunes. This production succeeds at both. With help from costume designer Priscilla Boyd and scenic designer John Michael Andzulis, we recognize the knickknacks that "make a house a home," the tights and bosom boosting tops on the women, the men in loud t-shirts, oversized florals, and even some comedy icons like trench coats on FBI, striped PJs and a black fedora on the villain, Groucho Marx glasses with nose and mustache attached, a gold lame onesie and a penchant for Swarovski crystals.
The original music is lively, with catchy, danceable tunes, ranging from good old rock 'n' roll to country to ballad, with punchy, comical lyrics, all under the direction of Peter Madpak. Choreographer Laura Priscilla Hoffman keeps the talented cast on their high heels with lots of entertaining boogaloo and frug type moves as well as a hint of pole dancing.
All the players in the talented cast sing, dance, and spout funny lines. Andrea Keddell-Heintz plays agoraphobic trailer dweller Jeannie Garstecki, and Steven O'Dea plays her tempted-to-stray husband who frequently expounds "Holy Ham Sandwiches." Pippi, beautifully played by Danae DeShazer, is a stripper hiding from her gun-toting boyfriend in the trailer for rent next door. All three sing a lovely medley, "But He's Mine/It's Never Easy." Travis M. Rogers plays Duke, the boyfriend who, in one of the more pointedly satirical scenes pulls out his gun, only to see the entire trailer park pull out their guns. The girls, who are sort of a Greek chorus, as well as characters of their own, and who do the bulk of the singing and dancing are played by Melanie Souza as Betty, Laura Priscilla Hoffman as Lin, and Liz Pascoe as Donna/Tina.

WTAWorld.com: The 2008 Bangalore Open
When: March 3rd to March 9th
Event Location: Bangalore, India
Prize Money: $600,000
Defending Champion: Yaroslavia Shvedova
The 2008 Bangalore Open is underway in India with 22 year-old Jelena Jankovic as the tournament's top seed. The world number four Jankovic will compete with the likes of the Williams sisters who are expected to make an impression in India's richest tennis tournament.
The Bangalore Open was surrounded with some controversy towards the beginning of the month when Indian star Sania Mirza withdrew because she was criticized in the past by Indian ultra nationalists for wearing short skirts and sleeveless tops on the court.
Do you think that Mirza should have withdrawn from the tournament or do you think that she should have taken a stand and competed regardless of the controversy?
Will favored Serbian Jelena Jankovic win this week's tournament?

BUS fanatic Alan Gurr has achieved his dream of travelling across England for nothing using his bus pass.
The 67-year-old granddad's first attempt to traverse the country by bus failed last year because he missed a connection.
But now the divorced Didcot dad-of-two has completed his mission thanks to the national scheme, which gives free travel in England after 9.30am. And he has raised £350 for East Oxford's Helen & Douglas House hospice in the process.
After a train up, he set off from the most northerly bus stop in England, at Berwick-upon-Tweed in Northumberland, on Monday, July 14.
The following Tuesday, eight days and 32 buses later, he arrived at the country's most southerly bus stop at Land's End and took the train home.
Mr Gurr, who works on the factory floor at TNT packaging warehouse at Milton Park, said: "A lot of people spend all year saving up to go on holiday to a sunny beach in the south of France.
"That would drive me crackers. I'd just get bored and sunburnt – it does not appeal.
"I really enjoy England, I like my holidays at home, I like B&Bs and I like travelling. I decided to do it by bus just to see if I could, and I could."
Mr Gurr said: "We all had very hot weather that week except for me in the Lake District.
"With all the rain and steamed-up bus windows, I couldn't see the beautiful scenery.
"Apart from that, it was a very enjoyable week for me, helped by the knowledge that I was raising some funds for a very worthy cause.
"All of my pre-booked B&Bs were good – some of the beers I tasted weren't."
He said the best evening meal he had was at Harry Ramsden's fish and chip restaurant in Blackpool.
Last July he travelled south-to-north but missed a crucial connection and had to take a train.
He added: "It was a personal challenge. One missed bus connection meant I had to complete that day's journey by train.
"I decided there and then to do it again, properly, with no mistakes on my part. Now I have done it, albeit in the opposite direction."
- Sunday, July 13 – train from Didcot Parkway to Berwick-upon-Tweed
- Monday, 14, – Berwick, Newcastle, Carlisle, Keswick, Ambleside – 4 buses
- Tuesday, 15 – Ambleside, Lancaster, Blackpool – 2 buses
- Wednesday, 16 – Blackpool, Preston, Chorley, Wigan, Warrington, Northwich, Middlewich – 6 buses
- Thursday, 17 – Middlewich, Winsford, Crewe, Newcastle Under Lyme, Shrewsbury, Bridgnorth – 5 buses

This Blogger is Proudly Unlicensed
Last time I was in Time Square, I passed a couple people selling humorous Barack Obama condoms on a street corner.: I was amused and proud of everything represented by: this simple act of commerce: freedom, expression, and capitalism.: I am sad to learn now that those same individuals might be the ones in this case, who have just been harassed by the government because they don't have proper vendor licenses.
The defendants argued that their product was a form of speech, and therefore should be protected by the first amendment.: This should have been a compelling argument, as I find it doubtful that most of their tourist customers purchased the condoms for actual use.: The judge felt differently, "holding that the novelty prophylactics constituted commercial speech, not constitutionally protected persuasive speech."
While hardly the most outrageous instance of license enforcement, this case is just another in a long line of examples showing how such laws are antithetical to a free society.: They prevent people the right to pursue the occupation of their choice, place undue burdens on many entrepreneurs, and even serve as a basis to limit free speech.
Licensing laws are one of the many ways in which the nanny state purports to protect us from ourselves.: What usually happens, however, is that such laws are used as a means to protect a cartel and drive up the price of labor (doctors, lawyers, etc.), or as an abusive revenue source for the government, like in the case of little Julie Murphy, the 7-year-old girl who was recently harassed because she didn't have a license for her lemonade stand.
What's worse is the number of completely harmless occupations which the government licenses, removing any doubt that their aim is not really to protect.: The Institute for Justice, for instance, recently forced the Louisiana government to reconsider it's outrageously arbitrary licensing regime for florists.
One man was thrown in jail simply for helping someone draft a letter in response to being fined.: The cartel of lawyers doesn't want people moving in on their turf who don't charge $500 an hour.
Fully 30% of occupations require government licenses.: Most of these professions provide no real risk to the consumer that due diligence could not protect them from.: The U.S. Constitution protects the right of all to earn an honest living in the occupation of their choice, but these laws stand in the way of that fundamental right.: It's time for the government to get out of the business of licensing business.

Radio: Three goes to Glyndebourne, Four steams up to the Boyle
Sunday 20 July 1997
Yet rumour has it that the laconic Controller of R4 intends to do away with it, along with loads of other old junk for which he can no longer find house room. These rumours are muddled, contradictory, unreliable and unsettling. They serve no purpose other than to arouse the vociferous claque of R4 lunatic listeners into wild, undirected counter-blast. Until he actually hires the skip and starts trying to fill it while the listeners just as rapidly empty it, it's a waste of space to speculate further: watched Scots never Boyle.
So let's away to Sussex where James Naughtie was enjoying a break from Today and discussing The Christies of Glyndebourne (R3). The series started with Sir George talking about his parents, John Christie and Audrey Mildmay, who began the whole thing. We heard John talking robustly in the distant, imperial accents of George V, and Audrey singing Susana with a sweet, equally dated refinement, on a record scratchy as brambles.
In the early days, people would dunk their wine bottles in the lake, tied to saplings, and fish them out at the interval. One young man, attempting to retrieve his, fell in. Dripping and festooned with duck-weed, he went looking for a taxi but was offered a dashing costume from Act III of Eugene Onegin, in which he stayed to enjoy the rest of the performance. He was handed his own laundered outfit at the end and went home to write the best review they'd ever had. The moral, said Naughtie, gamely, was to treat everyone like a critic. Sir George disagreed: sounding very much his father's son, he said that the moral was to push all the critics in.
The new house at Glyndebourne has been widely welcomed, but it remains to be seen how the refurbishment of Covent Garden will be greeted. It might have been easier to win public support for the venture if it had caught fire. That was the message of an excellent Sunday Feature, Daniel Snowman's The Building of the House (R3) which looked at the world-wide epidemic of operatic architecture. The director at San Francisco's opera house shot under his marble-topped desk when the 1989 earthquake began. The house's refit is seismic, but timely: just before the disaster several doughty women facing long queues during the only interval in War and Peace marched into the Gents and occupied it. The new design will provide better facilities for Ladies and obviate the need for such a sit-in.
Both he and the man in charge of La Fenice, the burned-out Venice house, marvelled at an unexpected and encouraging side-effect of their enforced rebuilding: the influx of a newer and younger audience for the performances they have been giving at less daunting venues. Nicholas Payne at the Royal Opera House has taken note. He hopes to use the Royal Opera and Royal Ballet's temporary homes to try out different repertoires, attract new devotees. It is, as Snowman said, a grand opportunity for lateral thinking.
Nigel Kennedy has been doing a bit of that lately. The Act of God that forced him out of business was a cyst on his neck, probably caused by pressure from his violin. Two operations and a new baby later, he returned to the concert platform, by all accounts playing better than ever. He was In the Psychiatrist's Chair (R4, for now at least) last week, and he was delightful - quite happy to talk about his pretty dreadful childhood, but devoid of self-pity.
For the third week running, the superb Anthony Clare conducted a perceptive interview, discovering precisely what he wanted to know. Kennedy spoke of the tremendous effort that goes into each performance: "It's such an inward- looking, almost destructively critical exercise, playing music," he said, yet "it takes you outside yourself and puts you into an area so deep that language cannot reach you" (he was doing pretty well). There had been occasions when the effort of playing Beethoven, of "assimilating his thought and emotional patterns" has produced the weird effect on Kennedy of finding himself at the back of the hall, watching his own performance - though he hasn't yet dared to walk out, for fear of never getting back again.
The pianist John Lill has spoken of similar experiences when interpreting the uniquely potent Beethoven. To celebrate the season of the Proms that began on Friday, George Steiner made a stab at identifying the nature of Beethoven the Titan (R3), though even he found it tricky: "What is one meant to do with mere words?" he groaned. "Language is a crippled instrument" (he did quite well, too). A contemporary critic at the first performance of the Ninth Symphony simply said that Beethoven transcended all normal dimensions. Better, perhaps, just to listen to the music.
The opening of the Proms is always a time for jubilation. For weeks to come, we can be assured of a magnificent concert every night: Nicholas Kenyon, R3's competent Controller and Proms supremo, has proved his reliability. And he will certainly not depend solely on the traditional greats, but will introduce brave new music as well, just as the founder of the Proms, Henry Wood, predicted. A previous Proms Director, John Drummond, easily identified the Wood quotation given to him on Quote, Unquote (R4, still), last week. Conducting some Schoenberg in 1912, Wood encouraged his orchestra with the prophetic words "Stick to it, boys, stick to it. This is nothing to what you'll be playing in 25 years' time." Eighty-five years later, they're still at it.
