What's better than being able to watch movies on a 122-inch projection screen? Watching them while you're soaking in a Jacuzzi.
As long as there was an addition being built to this home that would include a media room, why not make sure it would be viewable from the nearby outdoor space? Ask and ye shall receive, was what Jeff Cooper, president of Menifee, Calif.-based Simply Sight and Sound, relayed to these homeowners, who certainly deserved a treat for the place after it was nearly destroyed by wildfire. Thankfully the home was saved, and the owners are able to fully enjoy it.
"This room was part of an 1,100-square-foot addition to the house. It was initially planned as nothing more than a small TV room for the kids with just a flat panel on the wall and a Wii gaming system," says Cooper. "After looking at the room layout, and learning more about the different prospective uses, we pitched the idea of making this a full on fun/media room. The owner was very receptive and actually asked if we could design the system so it could be viewed from the outdoor Jacuzzi as well while still having a great a sounding system."
The video request was relatively easy, when you combine the room's rear sliding doors with a whopping projection screen. There actually is a flat-panel display still in there, but it's mounted along a side wall (a 52-inch Sharp LCD) if one's facing the projection screen wall. That's when the screen is in view, of course—it's a 122-inch Stewart Filmscreen motorized model that was installed flush into a cabinet soffit and can retract when not in use with the room's Epson projector.
For the audio solution, Simply Sight and Sound used a combination of Pinnacle front-channel speakers and SpeakerCraft surround speakers ... plus a pair of SpeakerCraft speakers to be set up outdoors. Three Pinnacle QP9 speakers were installed into the upper section of the cabinet, including the center channel in a cavity that the maker notched into the upper soffit. Four SpeakerCraft Aim Wide 3 models act as the surrounds (the audio is fed by a Denon receiver), and two more were installed outside for the coverage by the sitting and Jacuzzi areas.
An Escient Vision media server supplies convenient storage and access for the homeowners' media, and RTI controller and remotes can navigate things easily whether people are sitting indoors or in the tub. "The system is controlled inside by an RTI T3-V Remote, which talks to a local RTI RP-6 System Controller and the whole-house RTI XP-8 Control system," says Cooper. "For controlling the system from the Jacuzzi, we programmed an RTI U2 system controller to give the family full control from the outdoor area.
The room also features integrated lighting control to set the mood for movies or Wii gaming. Lutron RadioRA dimmers were installed so lights could dim upon a source selection and brighten when a movie is paused or when the system is shut down.

Please help I'm buying my first DSLR this week, price is a factor which is why I'm buying either the canon or nikon base level product. I had read numerous profffessional reviews and still have not made up my mind. The only thing that is dwelling slightly on my mind is that in a couple of professional and consumer reviews the Nikon does not perform well in low light applications.
Any advice would be very welcome
Oh one thing to mention I will be using the camera for landscape pictures in the majority.
Thanks in advance

Aside from the fact that she's a superb actress and looks great in a couture frock, one of the things we love most about Jennifer Lawrence is her refreshing honesty. Minutes after arriving at the Academy Awards on Sunday the Hunger Games actress quashed speculation that Hollywood starlet's don't eat by blurting out 'I'm starving! Is there any food here?' Then following her Oscar win, J-Law's response from a journalist about her red carpet prep revealed her down-to-earth approach to A-list life: 'I just woke up and tried on the dress and it fit, thank God, and ummm...I took a shower...and then I got my hair and makeup done. And then I came to the Oscars!' Simples!
Now it has emerged that Lawrence broke another celebrity rule on her big night by trying to convince a reporter that she had a little help from photoshop in her Miss Dior campaign. The star saw the photos, taken by renowned photographer is Willy Vanderperre for the first time when the interviewer from Access Hollywood showed her the campaign on the Oscars red carpet. Her response was startlingly honest as she exclaimed: 'Oh my God, I haven't seen these. That doesn't look like me at all! I love Photoshop more than anything in the world.' The reporter looked baffled as he replied, 'Is that photoshop? I don't think that's photoshop...' to which Jen joked, 'Of course it's photoshop. People don't look like that'. You can watch the clip below as well as more of her Oscar honesty in our J-Law Academy Awards round up.
She may think she's been photoshopped in her Miss Dior campaign, but J-Law is certainly au naturel (save hair, makeup and great lighting) in the gallery below. Check out her biggest red carpet style moments, from the Oscars 2013 to the Hunger Games premiere.

Positive Psychology is the scientific study of the strengths and virtues that enable individuals and communities to thrive. The field is founded on the belief that people want to lead meaningful and fulfilling lives, to cultivate what is best within themselves, and to enhance their experiences of love, work, and play.
The mission of the Positive Psychology Center (PPC) at the University of Pennsylvania is to promote research, training, education, and the dissemination of Positive Psychology. The PPC is internationally recognized for empirical studies in Positive Psychology and resilience. The Center's scholars are world-renowned experts in the fields of Positive Psychology, resilience, and grit. The Center established the world's first Master of Applied Positive Psychology program (MAPP). We offer state-of-the-art training programs in Positive Psychology and resilience for educational institutions, the U.S. Army, and other organizations around the world.
Dr. Martin E.P. Seligman is the Director of the Center and a Professor of Psychology. He is a leading authority in the fields of Positive Psychology, resilience, learned helplessness, depression, optimism and pessimism. He is also an expert on interventions that prevent depression, and build strengths and well-being. He has written more than 250 scholarly publications and about 20 books.
Other faculty at the Center include Dr. Karen Reivich, Dr. Angela Duckworth, Dr. Paul Rozin, Dr. James Pawelski (MAPP Director), and Dr. Judith Saltzberg (MAPP instructor and resilience program trainer). Mr. Peter Schulman is the Executive Director of the Center. Staff at the Center also includes 9 post-doctoral fellows, 6 graduate students, 13 project managers, and the MAPP program director.
Dr. Karen Reivich is an instructor in the MAPP program and is a leading expert in the fields of resilience, depression prevention and Positive Psychology. She is the primary curriculum developer for the Center's resilience and Positive Psychology programs for the U.S. Army and for educators, as well as the lead instructor for these programs. She has co-authored two books on resilience and optimism, and has published extensively in peer reviewed journals and edited books.
Dr. Angela Duckworth's research focuses on self-control (the ability to regulate thoughts and emotions) and grit (perseverance and sustained interest toward goals) and how these characteristics influence academic and professional achievement. She has written more than 40 scholarly publications and manuscripts.
At the Positive Psychology Center, we:
- Conduct empirical research in Positive Psychology, resilience, grit, Positive Neuroscience, Positive Health, and Prospective Psychology. Since the 1970s, research at the Center has been funded by the generous support of the National Institute of Mental Health (NIMH), the U.S. Department of Education, the John Templeton Foundation, the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation, Atlantic Philanthropies, the Gates Foundation, the Pew Charitable Trusts, the Annenberg Foundation, the Mayerson Foundation, the Hovey Foundation, among others.
- Develop and empirically validate curricula and train-the-trainer programs designed to enhance resilience, well-being and performance.
- Deliver resilience programs and Positive Psychology programs using the train-the-trainer model. These programs have shown efficacy in the prevention of depression and anxiety, and to increase well-being and resilience. We currently conduct large-scale resilience programs for educational institutions around the world, and for the U.S. Army's Comprehensive Soldier and Family Fitness program.
- Disseminate research findings through academic publications in peer-reviewed journals, which are listed throughout this website.
- Offer the Master of Applied Positive Psychology program (MAPP), in which students learn to apply the principles of Positive Psychology to professional domains, or prepare for further study in a Ph.D., M.D., or J.D. program.
- Host conferences and meetings at which scholars share and discuss the latest empirical findings in Positive Psychology.
- Collaborate with numerous scholars and students around the world on research studies, grant-writing, teaching, and conferences. A few of the many scholars we have worked with over the years to build the field of Positive Psychology and resilience include Dr. Roy Baumeister, Dr. Tal Ben-Shahar, Dr. Mihaly Csikszentmihalyi, Dr. Ed Diener, Dr. Robert Emmons, Dr. Raymond Fowler, Dr. Barbara Fredrickson, Dr. Shelly Gable, Dr. Jane Gillham, Dr. Jonathan Haidt, Dr. Kathleen Hall Jamieson, Dr. Laura Kubzansky, Dr. Darwin Labarthe, Dr. Sonja Lyubomirsky, Dr. Robert Nozick, Dr. Christopher Peterson, Dr. Laurence Steinberg, Dr. George Vaillant, among many others.
Positive Psychology has three central concerns: positive emotions, positive individual traits, and positive institutions. Understanding positive emotions entails the study of contentment with the past, happiness in the present, and hope for the future. Understanding positive individual traits involves the study of strengths and virtues, such as the capacity for love and work, courage, compassion, resilience, creativity, curiosity, integrity, self-knowledge, moderation, self-control, and wisdom. Understanding positive institutions entails the study of the strengths that foster better communities, such as justice, responsibility, civility, parenting, nurturance, work ethic, leadership, teamwork, purpose, and tolerance.
Some of the goals of Positive Psychology are to build a science that supports:
- Families and schools that allow children to flourish
- Workplaces that foster satisfaction and high productivity
- Communities that encourage civic engagement
- Therapists who identify and nurture their patients' strengths
- The teaching of Positive Psychology and resilience skills
- Dissemination of Positive Psychology and resilience training in organizations & communities

California Fish and Game Commission votes to add gray wolf to state endangered list
Feather Publishing
The California Fish and Game Commission has voted to move forward with listing the gray wolf as an endangered species under California law.
The vote took place at the regularly scheduled commission meeting in Fortuna on June 4. Commissioners Richard Rogers, Jack Baylis and Michael Sutton voted for listing, while Commissioner Jacque Hostler-Carmesin voted no. Commissioner Jim Kellogg was not present.
"No land animal is more iconic in the American West than the gray wolf," said Sutton, who is also president of the commission. "Wolves deserve our protection as they begin to disperse from Oregon to their historic range in California."
The new regulatory language will take several months to complete and approve. However, the recent decision provides permanent protection for the gray wolf, and immediate protection under the California Endangered Species Act. That protection will remain in place throughout the required regulatory process.
The gray wolf is already federally listed as an endangered species and is therefore protected by the federal Endangered Species Act in California. The federal Endangered Species Act makes it unlawful to take any listed wildlife unless permitted by regulation. The term "take" means to harass, harm, pursue, hunt, shoot, wound, kill, trap, capture, collect or attempt to engage in any such conduct. The protection provided under federal law overlaps, but does not supersede, protection provided by listing under California law.
At this time, there are no gray wolves known to be in California. A male wolf known as OR7 that originated in northeastern Oregon has crossed the Oregon/California state line several times since December 2011. At this time, OR7 is in southwestern Oregon, where he has found a mate. On Monday, June 3, biologists from the Oregon Department of Fish and Wildlife captured photographs of two wolf pups in the vicinity.
For more information about gray wolves, including OR7's travels in California, visit http://bit.ly/1umjYTN.
Richard Wednesday, 18 June 2014
Are we going to protect them until they multiply and kill all our game like in Idaho, Montana, etc. then what?
Robin Wednesday, 18 June 2014
I highly agree Richard!
Oh come on! All the game are killed???....so how is it that the game survived before we arrived and killed all the predators? God must have made a mistake by setting up such a brutal scheme.
Anonymous Wednesday, 02 July 2014
I think while they are at it, they might as well re-introduce the grizzly bear. And of course any frog species that may or may not survive here, perhaps a few more spotted owls. Heck, why don't we just drive the people out and turn Plumas County into a Wildlife Sanctuary? Oh, sorry, I guess I let the cat out of the bag!

Cutting dietIt might sound better to call this a 'dietary regimen' but since the term "dietary" itself means 'regimen' already, it is probably more appropriate this way. We could also call it 'cutting diet' but that sounds awkward. Term 'weight-loss diet' gives us the creeps, so it's best to stick to the name 'goal oriented'. So let's see the design of a cutting diet!
Weight-gaining diet basicsMany people out there fail because of not knowing how to create an environment within the body that makes it possible to gain weight at all. They start to take weight-gaining supplements with no background, and then they tend to be surprised about having absolutely no results. Why?

A word from MINT
The only Indian restaurant to be awarded by Time Out New York. The 110 seat restaurant is located within the newly renovated San Carlos Hotel with a street and lobby entrance. The exotic atmosphere whisks you to Southeast Asia as soon as you open the door and spot the stone waterfall cascading down the wall. Orange, red, and fuscia drum lights are snuggled together throughout the long dining room, and painted panels of mint, yellow, and green hang over striped banquettes. There is a semi-private room complete with audio video equipment that seats 12. Mint is a labor of love for Gary Sikka, and he is taking great pride in bringing an exemplary dining experience in an atmosphere that is both tranquil and exhilarating. The definition of mint is "an aromatic refreshing herb that serves as a central ingredient in accompaniment sauces in Indian cuisine." That can also be said of the new restaurant that is its namesake.Continued

- Indian find in Turtle Bay Area...foodiefindsVIPDined on 11/7/2014A nice business meeting lunch place, had dinner here.... I'd recommend theenu vjoicdst instead of the lunch buffet though, as the chicken Marsala, goat curry was dry and the raita, yellow dal were a little too pureed for my taste...guess the extend the buffet....Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Loved it!!scottchapDined on 10/25/2014This was our second time in NYC and our second time to The Mint. Just as good second time around. Would highly recommend.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- HORRIBLE SERVICECarolineBBVIPDined on 10/23/2014It's difficult to have such bad service when you go somewhere for a buffet, but our waiter was rude and would not allow me to use my $20 Open Table gift certificate even though our tab (lunch for two) came out to more than $20. The food was, as always, quite good, and, otherwise, Mint is a great place for lunch in Midtown East. The service needs work though.Special Features:
- Good foodRuthsiegVIPDined on 10/18/2014Cold food and nice ambiance. Would definitely return on another occasion.I would recommend this to a friend.
- Not SpecialchefmecheVIPDined on 10/9/2014The crab cake had more crust than crab, the cauliflower was uninspired, the lamb curry was pretty good and the lamb chops were the best. The service was so condescending we had to call the manager. Waiter #2 was far more accommodating. It wasn't awful but for the price there are better places nearby like Tulsi.
- Overpriced food, poor serviceMetFanVIPDined on 9/18/2014With so many great Indian restaurants in the City, I would never go back to Mint.
- subtle, consistent, delishdehillerinVIPDined on 9/3/2014We came for the ever juicy chicken malai kebab appetizer and tried the saffron shrimp, which was also wonderful: aromatic, slightly sweet. This restauarant serves the most pleasing Indian food in town, but it doesn't get enough praise. Go!Special Features:
- OK, but better optionsRickardDined on 8/30/2014With all the great Indian restaurants in NYC, this one is OK but could be much better. The facility is fine and the food is good but not top notch. The problem is the service. Don't get me wrong, the service people are quite friendly and pleasant; but they are quite disorganized. They seem to be trying to figure out the bill (billed extra for items not purchased but recommended by the waiter-Groupon not credited even when presented at time of service). We had to get the waiter's attention a number of times.
- Excellent Indian FoodWallStreetLawyerVIPDined on 8/21/2014A serious cut above the norm, with lots of dishes I haven't seen elsewhere. Great for a date who'd like to try quality Indian food, without worrying about an upset stomach later.Special Features:
- StephenHVIPDined on 8/15/2014This was my first time at Mint. I must admit after reading some reviews I was concerned about the service. But the service was friendly and very good. The food was gerat, and I will be back.
- Don't go here!!!OpenTable Diner Since 2010VIPDined on 8/8/2014This is my one and only bad experience throughout my many years with Open Table. We had to wait 20 minutes to be seated, because the floor was wet (?) and the food wasn't ready. Once we finally got to eat there were lots of waiters going back and forth, except that they never stopped at any table including ours. Makes you wonder what else is going on there. The food was without flavor. It not only lacked any spiciness, it didn't have any of the lovely complex flavors Indian cuisine has to offer. Don't go there!!!
- Looks are deceivingJan28Dined on 8/5/2014Beautiful place but they need to get their act together. Took forever to be seated and they did not care that we had a reservation (didn't ask our name) because it was not crowded. But still we had to wait a long time to be seated. We were in the restaurant an hour before we had food. You think they would have brought the papadun at least that we ordered (which was excellent). Tandoori chicken tasted mushy. Cauliflower was good though heavy handed tomato sauce (maybe from a jar?). Okra was good, as was the lamb. The naan and rosti (whole wheat naan) were great. Don't bother with the chocolate moltan lava desert.
- Not a good experienceFoodieDined on 8/3/2014I went for a dinner with my friends. The food was "OK", but the service was lousy. Didn't enjoy / Not worth the time and money you spend going there.
- 2 thumbs upLinicVIPDined on 8/2/2014Me and my boyfriend loves the food and also the service was great and attentive.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- OrdacityDined on 8/1/2014When we arrived it was pretty empty. We realized because they close around 1130/12. The waiters were a little difficult to understand but was able to order everything perfectly from the restaurant week prefix menu. The bottle of Riesling we ordered was great. Not dry with a little hint of sweetness. Towards the end we felt a bit rushed because they were trying to close up. So we hurried our dessert and the rest of our drink and headed out. Overall the food was great. Service was good but could do with some improvement.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- DecentPaulDined on 8/1/2014Nice appearance. Went for lunch buffet...convenient location. Decent Indian food...there is better in the duty..but go there because of location.Special Features:
- The following 377 reviews are from the MINT reviews archive.
- A great NYC experience.FoodLoverDined on 7/31/2014I went to Mint while here in NYC with my friend. We made reservations but we ran a little late because the restaurant was full so the waiter told us to have some drinks at the bar. We had a delicious lychee martini & the bartender friendly. When we got a table it was pretty small but we had no choice. Our waiter Dhinesh came to the table and we asked what are some popular dishes. He explained about the prefix menu which includes an appetizer, entree and dessert. The food was excellent. We ordered the malabar shrimp which came with basmati rice and naan. It was delicious and finally the dessert was kheer. This is a great place to eat. The waiter was quick and the atmosphere was enjoyable.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Not the best indian foodGtfromnycDined on 7/31/2014The food was bland. Service not great, not even a host when we got there.
- OpenTable Diner Since 2014Dined on 7/30/2014The food was traditional Indian cuisine, with a good choice for restaurant week. The chef made sure our dishes were the requested level of spice.Special Features:
- Very good food. Mediocre servicerileydogDined on 7/29/2014We really enjoyed the food but the service left quite a bit to be desired. Our reservation was a 7pm. First, nobody was at the door to greet us at the front door (where there is a computer/phone, etc) so after waiting 5 minutes we wandered back and the bartender pointed us to a waiter who sat us. Another 5-10 min later we were finally greeted by the waiter who barely took any time to help us overall. We had a couple questions when order (which is the best lamb dish, etc) and he answered too quickly and hard to understand so we just nodded at the suggestion hoping for the best. The food was excellent, I have to say. But our 3 main courses came w/o rice and no prompting by the waiting that we should consider ordering rice.Special Features:
- Buffet seemed better thanOpenTable Diner Since 2007Dined on 7/24/2014The choices for restaurant week menu. First they did not include certain items that their website said their RW menu. 2nd their site quoted $17, not $25. Nothing to write home about
- Food very good, service not so muchOpenTable Diner Since 2006VIPDined on 7/17/2014My friend and I went here on a Thursday night. The place was relatively empty - about 8-9 tables were being served. The food was very good and nicely prepared. However, the service needs work. I did not see any of the service staff interested in keeping the guests satisfied or providing timely service. We had to wait at least 15 minutes to get the check and then had to go to the cashier to expedite our request. It was very strange as they had a significant number of service staff working that night. My recommendation to the owner would be retrain the service staff so that have a better idea of service. It is a shame because the restaurant ambiance is great - lots of potential.
- Great Indian foodHiddenSpotDined on 6/28/2014The atmosphere of the place had a real cool vibe. The service was great too. The drinks were a little too strong and the prices were too high. My overall experience was good.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Way Too Expensive!!!`Manish276Dined on 6/28/2014The food is pretty average. There is nothing extraordinary about it except for the price! A la Carte is way too expensive!!! I paid $75 for the lunch for just 2 ppl without having any kind of alcohol. There is no way the food can justify the prices they charge!
- Good FindOpenTable Diner Since 2011Dined on 6/19/2014Good food and service. I was staying at the Marriott Lexington Ave in NYC and this is just around the corner. Happy hour available. Dinner was delicious and service was great. Very helpful if you are not familiar with Indian Food. I would return again.Special Features:

- sad that this wasn't greatfoodiefindsVIPDined on 5/22/2014Lukewarm food, erratic Indian dishes with too much cardomon, hated being charged 18% gratuity fee when there was two - not six of us - but nice waiter...sad...;(
- No rice?DobbsDinerVIPDined on 5/20/2014The food we ordered was good: tandoor lamb chops, saag paneer, chana masala and a couple of naans and I did enjoy the Lychee martini. But even with a Groupon, this was expensive. I dont mind paying for quality and usually withGroupons I always walk away feeling like I got a great deal. But to order 3 entress and not have them come with any rice is ridiculous and petty. I had a nice time and we had good service and if I worked in the area I would give the lunch buffet a try or the dinner take out. I also noticed a prix fix dinner which looked like a better deal but you could not use the Groupon for that. I live in Westchester and would rather go to Chutney Masala in Irvington for high quality Indian food with good service and nice ambiance
- Delightful findpickyeaterDined on 4/4/2014We had an early dinner when the restaurant was very quiet. The service was attentive and appropriate, not intrusive to our conversation. We ordered two appetizers, a lamb kabob and crab cakes, and for dinner I had saag chana and a mixed vegetable dish in a creamy cashew sauce, while my companion had the sea bass. All were delicious. I look forward to another visit.I would recommend this to a friend.
- DisappointedLive2eatDined on 3/26/2014I should have followed the reviews "don't go". It was like paying for a bad movie we should have walked out on. It was like they wanted to be a hip club/ dining experience when in fact it failed in both. Every other Indian restaurant I've been to asks the degree of spicyness I'd like. So the spice rating was too high for my taste. To their credit they did make us another dish. The garlic naan had too much garlic and salt, the flavor of the bread was lost. There wine list was lacking at best and then after ordering two different bottles ( on the menu, not in stock) we settled for a more expensive poor quality cab. Should have stuck with water. I won't be putting this on my list of restaurants to go to again.
- Fell Short Of ExpectationsSugaDined on 3/7/2014I wanted to have an open mind after reading the reviews before I went (because they weren't so good). I went to the location in Queens before and It was very good. I had service at the bar first & then moved on to dinner. The bartender was really nice. The problem was, the service was so slow. I sat down with my guest, and I saw that my neighboring table had been sitting down prior to me for quite some time as well, and they still didn't have orders in front of them. I turned over to these strangers to ask if they have even had the chance to place their order yet. They said no in calm, yet still frustration. I got up from my table and went to find my waiter and my neighbors waiter. I finally got the waiters. Slow Service But Loved Ambiance.Special Features:
- i would not recommend thisnycfoodieVIPDined on 3/3/2014i would not recommend this restaurant to others because there are too many great restaurants in nyc to go to an OK on
- Lunch BuffetSeanSDined on 2/26/2014Loved the lunch. Great mix of taste, price, and atmosphere. Friendly staff.Special Features:
- The Dal Makhani was not theMorrelliGirlVIPDined on 2/24/2014The Dal Makhani was not the rich dark brown like in India and the chicken korma could have been a little zestier, but the Bhindi and nan were delicious. The place is well appointed and pleasing to the senses, but there are no Indian accents. Service was attentive. I would go again.Special Features:
- Good experienceOpenTable Diner Since 2014Dined on 2/21/2014I had a wonderful experience at mint and the food was absolutely delicious and the service was impeccable. However I had a groupon for $160 and they only let me use $80. I tried talking to the guy and explaining my situation but he just didn't seem to care, so if you have a groupon, make sure you show them it before you order. Other than that, this is a fine and vibrant lounge.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Great Indian food in MidtownCharlestonGirlVIPDined on 2/21/2014This is a great lunch spot. The food/service is great. The staff doesn't rush you. We were there for 2 hours. If you are looking for a good Indian restaurant in Midtown, this is it!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Should Be BetterRadioPeriVIPDined on 2/7/2014It was fine, don't get me wrong ... just not fine enough. Especially not for the price, and especially not when there are so many Indian food restaurants around with better food and fairer prices. $5 for an order of naan, $6 for a side of plain white rice, $19 for an order of chicken tikka masala, and $22 for a plate of underseasoned tandoori chicken all combine to make this place eminently skip-able. That said, Happy Hour at the pretty bar could make it a worthwhile stop *before* dinner someplace else.

- Never leave children alone with any body of water such as a pool, bathtub, or spa. Drowning can occur within moments.
- Have your child take swimming lessons. Remember that even a child who knows how to swim is still at risk for drowning and will need constant supervision.
- A fence or barrier should completely enclose your pool or spa. All gates or doors leading from the house to the pool area should have a self-closing, self-latching gate. It should be above the reach of toddlers and young children. You may want to get a pool alarm or rigid pool cover in addition to the fence and gates.
- If you use a lightweight, floating pool cover, be extra alert to the potential for drowning accidents. These covers do not keep people from falling in. No one should ever crawl or walk on them.
- Remove any obstacles to allow a full view of the pool or spa from the house.
- Body parts and hair can be trapped in pool drains. Be sure that the pool has drain covers or a filter system to release the suction.
- Ensure careful supervision of all guests if alcoholic beverages are served at a spa or pool.
- When swimming in open water, choose an area where there is a lifeguard.
- Always wear life vests when boating.
- There is a risk of drowning during the wintertime. Warn children and others about the danger of walking or skating on thin ice.
- Do not allow anyone of any age to swim alone. A supervising adult should be within arm's length of infants and toddlers who are swimming. The adult should know how to swim, be able to rescue someone, and do CPR.

If the chicken feels firm when prodded at its thickest part, then it's cooked all the way through.
- Heat oven to 200C/fan 180C/gas 6. Mix the mascarpone with the rosemary, garlic and seasoning. Place the chicken breasts on a board and lift, but don't detach, the skin. Put a spoonful of the mascarpone mix under the skin of each breast. Wrap 2 slices of prosciutto around each, as neatly and tightly as you can, to keep the filling enclosed.
- Heat a non-stick frying pan, add the olive oil and quickly brown the chicken on both sides. Transfer to a roasting tin, then finish off in the oven for 15-20 mins until just cooked.
- Add the lemon juice to the roasting tin and stir over the heat, scraping off any crispy bits. Spoon the juices over the chicken and serve with potatoes and green beans.

Comments, questions and tips
This is a fabulous dish, I use skinless chicken breasts and cut a slit for the stuffing. Made this for a dinner party last night. Prepared earlier in the day and popped in the over after the starter, served with crushed new potatoes and cabbage, peas and pancetta (both recipes found here). Worked together perfectly and I was declared a genius...I failed to tell my guests how easy it really was to make!
Bill Grainger has a more elaborate version of this dish where he butterflies a small chicken and stuffs a cream cheese/herb mixture under the skin, over the breast and the thighs before roasting it in the oven. It is very tasty but this version is less fiddly and sounds just as good so I will definitely give it a try.

NATIONAL COUNCIL OF LABOUR AFTER THE RISING IN SPAIN By VINCENT AURIOL Socialist Member of the French Chamber of Deputies. A VISIT TO LARGO CABALLERO IN PRISON Spanish friends estimate that the number of Socialists and Trade Unionists at present in prison is between 25,000 and 30,000. Wholesale arrests have been made. In Andalusia, where the workers did not rise because they had been exhausted by a recent strike, the Government incarcerated our members simply because they are Socialists. In effect, there is a general charge of conspiracy against the Socialist Party and the General Union of Workers. There is one group of quiet villages, where there are more than 500 prisoners. The big trial concerns responsible members of the Executive, and especially Largo Caballero, General Secretary of the General Union of Workers and Chairman of the Socialist Party; Enrique de Francisco, Secretary of the Party; Pascual Tomas, Secretary of the Metal Workers' Union and member of the Executive of the Party and of the General Union of Workers; Wenceslao Carrillo, substitute member of the Executive of the International; and Ogier Preteceille, a member of the editorial staff of "El Socialista" and correspondent of "L'Europe Nouvelle." Others who are in prison include Comrades De Rosa, Manuel Cordero, substitute member of the Executive of the International, and Cabrero. Comrade Anastasio de Gracia, Chairman of the General Union of Workers, has been twice arrested and twice released. He is at liberty to-day with F. Azorin, De los Rios, Saborit, Besteiro, Enrique Santiago, etc. Our imprisoned comrades are at the Model Prison where, according to official figures, 1,700 members are detained. Some of the members of the Executive Committee who are at liberty, and some good Socialist friends of long standing, expressed a desire to accompany me on my visit to Caballero and to some of his prison companions. When we entered the room reserved for lawyers, I saw before me in another little room, behind a large, heavily-barred window, five lively and smiling faces. I recognised Caballero, Pascual Tomas, Enrique de Francisco, Wenceslao Carrillo and Ogier Preteceille. They were less upset than I. Covered with a big and heavy Basque beret, with his coat buttoned over a warm pullover, and appearing to suffer from the cold, Caballero gave me his hands through the bars and, with bright and sparkling eyes, showed his pleased surprise. I gave him and his friends the greetings of the International and explained the object of my mission. "Tell the International," he replied, "That the Party is not affected, and that it has nothing to fear. Nothing can legally be done against it. The workers' forces remain intact. From the news which has reached us from every quarter it appears that the Trade Unions are rapidly re-forming. This is the case with the Metal Workers' Union, which is absolutely intact. The men who have fallen or who are in prison have already been replaced in the leading positions by other men. Except in Asturias, in regard to which we have received little information, the political and Trade Union organisation of the workers is as strong as ever. Neither our faith, nor our hopes, have been imprisoned. "Our permanent enemies," continued Caballero, "are attempting to disorganise and destroy the Party. But there is nothing against us, no proof, no document. Not the slightest charge can be upheld against any of us. "It is true that for a long time past, for more than a year, we had warned the workers and the real Republicans. We showed them the approaching dangers of Fascism. We told them that one day the road would have to be closed to Fascism in order to save the Republic which was founded by our efforts and sacrifices. Every day we pointed out the development of the evil. "We carried on our campaign and gave salutary warnings publicly. People's minds were prepared. It was Lerroux' provocation, in raising enemies of the Republic to power, which started the insurrection.

This ottoman is almost black and we returned it based on this fact.
We purchased this ottoman for a newly renovated family room. Love the functionality and value for the item at this price range. The only negative we expereinced was noticing a small blemish in the leather (actually a detent by some man-made object) when we unpacked the unit. I wanted to return it immediately, but my wife was so eager to put it in the famiy room that she has overlooked this minor imperfection... it has become a conversation piece for us now. Having used the item for a couple of months, it has performed as expected and we are pleased- that small blemish is almost forgotten now.
I love this ottoman and it looks great in my living room while concealing toys. It is very easy to keep clean by just wiping with a damp cloth or leather cleaner. It is closer to black in color but the name espresso implies it will be a dark brown and I think it looks nice with my beige sofa and cream rug. That being said, I've had it seven months and just noticed the seam is coming apart on one of the top corners. I'm not sure if this can be fixed so now the lifespan of my ottoman is surely coming to an end. If it had held up better I would absolutely recommend this product to anyone but I have to admit I am disappointed in the quality.
This looks very nice, the color is exactly as it looks online, but the quality of the product is not very good.
This is one of the better storage ottoman's I found online. It has a lot of storage space and the gas shocks on the lid are great. you only have to lift the lid up about 2 or 3 inches and they open the lid and keep it open. The top of the unit has enough padding to rest your feet/legs on it comfortable for an extended period of time. This is a great ottoman for the price.
Only had it for a few weeks but so far so good. My 3 yr old can put away the blankets and couch pillows so it's doing it's job.
Very stylish and functional. It's a very dark brown and I love it!
Quality of workmanship is good. I dropped the value due to the price for bonded leather and the simplicity of the piece. Can store a lot inside and it cleans with soap and water. The dark color tends to show pet hair and dust easily but like I said-cleans well. Using it in front of the tele and it is firm enough to hold plates etc if eating or drinking. I placed a serving tray on it for more even stability. Like the sewn pattern look!
Very nice ottoman. Came packaged well and arrived quickly. Looks really good in the family room. Very nice size and has a huge storage space inside with safety hinges. Great buy! It is a very dark, dark expresso brown. My family thinks it looks black, but it depends on the lighting.
Our family has had it in the family room for over a year now, and we thoroughly enjoy its many versatile uses. Not only do we store our extra sofa pillows and several throws in it, but we also use it as an ottoman and a coffee table too. For the price, it is well worth it.

A hard-hitting report is out today that shows London's poorest families are most at risk from the invisible killer" of air pollution.
Children living in areas blighted by high levels of toxic particles are 50 per cent more likely to be on free school meals and their parents are 25 per cent more likely to rely on income support.
A total of 320,000 children attend schools close to roads that carry more than 10,000 vehicles a day, which is the level of traffic thought to make asthma attacks worse.
These findings come, not from the Rowntree Trust, but a report published by David Cameron's favourite think tank, Policy Exchange.
Written to mark the 60th anniversary year of the 1952 "Great Smog" that killed 4,000 Londoners, the study warned that a similar number are dying early each year in London, and 29,000 nationwide, because of pollution in the air.
The biggest single sources of high levels of fine particulates are the capital's iconic and much-loved black cabs and fleet of scarlet buses.
Among its recommendations, the authors call on Boris Johnson to change policy to reduce the number of diesel engines belching smoke in he centre.
It says the mayor's plans to replace elderly buses with new "Boris Buses" is too slow. Instead he should focus on retro-fitting anti-pollution devices on older buses. Mr Johnson should also reduce the C-Charge exemption for smaller diesel cars, to reflect their contribution to harmful pollution.
It also back innovative parking schemes in Camden and Kensington & Chelsea which offer lower rates for cleaner cars.
Author Simon Moore said: "The Olympics gives politicians the catalyst they need to start tackling this invisible killer which is more serious any public health problem other than smoking.
"Stepping up measures to tackle harmful air pollution should be the major component of the environmental legacy of the Games that the government and the Mayor want to secure."
Where is London's dirtiest air? Gower Street, Tottenham Court Road and New Road, plus Heathway, in Barking, are named as the streets with the worst air quality in the country. Other cities with serious problems are Birmingham, Leicester and Southampton but the report found London had the worst of all.
Older readers of this blog (are there any) may recall how in December 1952, London suffered a freak smog when the smoke from thousands of chimneys and coal burning power stations were trapped in the capital by a pool of cold, windless air covered by a lid of warm air. The tide of illness and deaths led to the Clean Air Act and other major reforms to combat pollution.

This email bearing the name of Lib Dem president Tim Farron has ruffled Tory feathers - it was sent along with the office phone numbers of MPs and asked members of the public to call them up and lobby for the Lords reform Bill and program motion.
The phrase "this email isn't being sent to anyone" suggests that someone knew it would be controversial. Farron's response to my call is printed below the email.
I emailed on Friday asking you to write to your MP about Lords reform, now I'm asking you to do one more thing to make this happen.
The vote is tomorrow night, and it's going to be close. We need to make sure your MP knows you care about Lords reform, so I'd like you to call their office and tell them.
This email isn't being sent to everyone.
We've selected you, [name], because we think you contacting your MP now could make a real difference.
You'll find below the name and phone number of your MP. I'd like you to give them a ring and ask if they'll be supporting the Lords reform "programme motion"on Tuesday night (this controls how long will be spent debating the bill, and stops opponents just "talking it out"). You might not be able to speak to your MP directly, don't worry, just make sure they know you called and asked.
Your MP is: [name of MP]
This has been debated for more than a hundred years, and it might be decided in the next 48 hours. I need your help, and I know you won't let me down.
Thank you, for everything.
I called Tim Farron's office to check it was really him and received this from his spokeswoman.
"I'm not surprised there are Tories complaining about getting phone calls from constituents. The fact that this has annoyed those Tories who are trying to block reform just shows how out of touch they are. Perhaps they don't like the fact that the public have the ability to get involved in the political process and hold their MPs to account, asking them to stand by the coalition agreement. Maybe they're hoping for a move to an easy life in the current House of Lords so they can simply ignore the will of the people."
It's another sign how how rancorous the Lords reform debate is getting. The briefings today from sources close to Clegg and Cameron were not relaxed.
What do George Osborne, John Major and David Mellor have in common? They're all Chelsea fans - and Osborne has written a lovely piece in the Times about being at the big match on Saturday.
Intriguingly he says: "I started going to Chelsea games in the mid-Nineties when I lived off the North End Road, ten minutes walk from Stamford Bridge."
The implication is that's when he became a confirmed Chelsea fanatic. The mid-90s (1994 to be exact) also marks the moment when, aged 21, George started working full time at Conservative Research Department.
Did his baptism have anything to do with the fact that the Prime Minister and Tory leader at the time, John Major, was the best known Chelsea fan in the land?
If so, George would not have been the first ambitious young Tory to find a love of The Blues at the point where Major hit the top. David Mellor was even accused of switching allegiance from Fulham to Chelsea so he could snuggle closer to the PM on the terraces.

Is Nick Clegg a Lib Dem tail wagging a big Coalition dog? Nadine Dorries thinks so, as do a fair few Tory MPs. But what do voters say?
In their monthly Political Monitor, the brillant researchers at Ipsos MORI have found out the answer. It is not what Nadine expected, perhaps.
A mere 14 per cent of voters think the LDs have "too much influence". But 44 per cent say they "do not have enough infliuence". Some 35 per cent say the balance is "about right".
Among Conservative supporters, around a quarter think the Lib Dems are over-mighty. It's hardly a mutiny, is it. The conclusiion I draw is that voters tend to agree with Nick more than Nadine.
Ipsos MORI found that Lib Dem suppporters were evenly divided about whether the Coalition had been a good or a bad thing for their party. Conservatives think it has been bad for them by 57 to 38. Labour think it has been giod for Labour by 57 to 34.
Conservative voters think the Lib Dems have done better out of being in Coalition than they have.
Overall, the poll gives Labour a 10-point lead (Lab 43, Con 33, LD 9) and finds that Cameron and Clegg's satisfaction ratings have taken a terrible hammering.
Ed Miliband's ratings have barely changed over the past month, however, which suggests he has a lot of work to do before he "seals the deal" with the British public.
It ought to be easier for him. Cameron's ratings are the worst for a PM since Gordon Brown's worst days in Dec 2009. And apart from a bad patch last year, you'd have to go back to 1990 for a Lib Dem share that wallowed in single figures.

I was lucky enough to get an invitation to dinner in the famous Long Room at Lord's last night, where a fundraising dinner was being held for the excellent Rwanda Cricket Stadium Foundation.
Star of the show was West Indies legend Brian Lara, who was joined by royalty in the form of the Duchess of York while David Cameron also found time to pop in - as these pictures show.
A slap-up dinner was followed by BBC commentator Jonathan Agnew interviewing Lara, who was scoring 375 against England in 1994 as the Rwandan genocide was taking place. Lara revealed he's felt a connection ever since, and is always willing to help get cricket established in the country.
The RCSF project aims to build an international standard cricket and sports centre in Rwanda's capital Kigali - where there are currently no cricketing facilities to speak of. It was the brainchild of Christopher Shale, the chairman of West Oxfordshire Conservative Association who died unexpectedly at Glastonbury last year, and is being carried on in his memory.
A fundraising auction raised tens of thousands of pounds towards the stadium, with Mr Cameron donating a bat signed personally for him by Indian cricket legend Sachin Tendulkar. International Development Secretary Andrew Mitchell was also there, as was Tory MP Matthew Hancock and TV's Sir David Frost among other stars.

Boris Johnson is now the most important Conservative in the land. He has achieved something no Tory has managed for 20 years - to become genuinely popular.
In a city where Labour voters outnumber Tories by five to three, he appears to have secured an eye-popping triumph. And that against a backdrop of austerity and tumbling Tory ratings.
Now a new battle is under way -- between rival Tory factions eager to claim Boris's victory as their own.
David Cameron's aides are keen to put him alongside Boris, so some of that unique stardust falls on the prime ministerial shoulders. Amusingly, some of Johnson's allies would rather keep Cameron at arm's length.
Meanwhile, the Thatcherites highlight Johnson's robust stance on Europe, tax cuts and law 'n' order. If only Cameron would muzzle Clegg and do the same, they argue, the Tories would sweep the board.
Their analysis ignores the fact that Brand Boris is more nuanced: It is also pro-immigration, backs a living wage and frets about rough sleepers. A Johnson ally says: "I would argue that Boris has come up with a formula that has eluded the Conservative Party for two decades: to combine bone-dry economics with social liberalism and compassion for those less fortunate."
The question now being asked by some MPs is whether the Boris magic would work if he took over as Conservative leader.
Mr Johnson made clear to the Standard this morning he will not stand in the 2015 general election. But his words did not rule out the possibility of getting back to Westminster later, perhaps in a by-election, to run for leader.
There are several Conservative MPs egging him to do it. For them the appeal is simply that Boris is a winner. And a big, thumping Tory victory is long overdue.

More thoughts on the disastrous timetable that handed the mayoral candidacy to Ken Livingstone without any other heavyweights getting a look-in.
A Labour friend calls to say bitterly: "It was Harriet Harman and Ray Collins' [ex gen sec] decision. Just as it was to delay the leadership election which allowed Ed to triumph. So, I guess no inquiry!"
A Ken supporter points out Ken won the selection with 68% of the votes of Labour London members on an OMOV ballot. That's also Tom Watson's line today.
But the elephantine Paul Waugh recalls a lot of Ken allies marching into the NEC sub-committee that agreed the rushed timetable and made his victory certain.
A Labour MP points out that several potential candidates were working on leadership campaign teams over summer 2010 so were ruled out. "Several might have gone for it, one the leadership was over."
Original blogpost:
When Ed Miliband looks back on his early leadership, he will always wonder whether it would all have been different had Ken not been the candidate for mayor.
Today's YouGov poll in the Evening Standard suggests that Boris Johnson will win, and that it will be Ken wot lost it for Labour.
The figures speak for themselves. A tenth of Labour assembly voters are backing Boris. Two-thirds of these say it not because they like Boris but because they "dislike Ken". The conclusion is brutal: With a different candidate, Labour might be winning.
So Labour's first task when the dust settles is to hold an inquest into how they apparently picked the wrong man to take on Boris Johnson and, by doing so, handed an unpopular Prime Minister a life-raft in a sea of local government losses.
It is not Mr Miliband's fault. He inherited Mr Livingstone under a selection timetable that forced the party to choose its candidate for Mayor at exactly the same time as it was picking its leader in summer 2010.
That hasty timetable, agreed by the National Executive in May that year while Harriet Harman was acting leader, made it very difficult for Labour heavyweights from the previous Government to enter the race. Big name Londoners like Alan Johnson were still too much in recovery from Gordon Brown's Cabinet to draw up manifestos for London. Oona King, the moderate former MP who did try, lacked the clout, ideas or record to beat a seasoned pro like Ken. Tessa Jowell, who helped bring the Olympics to London could have been a very distinctive and tough challenger to Boris, yet she somehow ended up as Ken's campaign chief.
Ken's fare cuts pledge was the single most popular policy from any candidate in this mayoral contest. But people preferred Boris anyway.
Tomorrow morning Mr Miliband will put on a big smile as Labour chalks up some 600 or 700 council seats around the country and takes around three more seats on the London Assembly.
But inwardly he ought to be furious if he does not claim the biggest scalp of all, the blond mop that looks set to stay at City Hall.

Bank of England governor Sir Mervyn King marched into the election fray today by taking to the airwaves to back George Osborne's "textbook" response to the economic crisis.
He also put the blame for Britain's economy flatlining for the last 18 months on rising food and energy prices rather than the Chancellor's austerity measures.
He may be right, he may not. But the timing of his intervention - on local election day - sparked anger among Labour MPs.
George Mudie, who sits on the Commons Treasury committee, said: "It's typical Mervyn, partisan, which is particularly inappropriate on polling day, and also academic which has been his fault throughout the crisis."
Andy Love, who is also on the Treasury select committee, added: "This is a very unwise intervention by the Governor as voters go to the polls. He has been less than forthcoming about the Bank of England's mistakes in the run up to the crash."
Naturally, the Conservatives were delighted by Sir Mervyn's words.
Conservative Party Deputy Chairman Michael Fallon, said: "The Governor of the Bank of England is right. Ed Balls got the big judgment wrong when he was in government, and he's got it wrong now."
But not all Tories were singing the praises of the governor who suggested that the bank would be happy to take part in a wider review of the causes of the financial crash.
"If the Governor thought that a review into the Bank's performance during the crisis had been necessary, it would already have been completed," says Andrew Tyrie, chairman of the Treasury committee.
"I am surprised that this was not done some time ago."

Transport Secretary Justine Greening is pushing measures to bring down the cost of car insurance for young drivers today, particularly the use of airline-style black boxes.
She argues it will help tackle Britain's youth jobs crisis (over a million 16 to 24-year-olds out of work) by helping tackle the "Alice Cooper dilemma". It is named after a line in the rocker's song Lost In America which goes: "I can't get a car 'cause I ain't got a job/I can't get a job 'cause I ain't got a car."
Ms Greening said: "For many young people, getting a car is one of the ways they can make sure they can access jobs and employment. It is massively important. They are the ones really paying the highest premiums out of all of us."
Average premiums for 17 to 22-year-old men cost more than £3,500, according to the AA, while women the same age face average bills in excess of £2,300.
Whether bringing Alice Cooper into the debate will help or not is another matter. Maybe Iggy Pop could help?

...or why the Government needs more Pickles.
It's fair to say David Cameron's attempts at a fightback have not been entirely successful. The polls this morning make for uncomfortable reading, the PM's comments over Abu Qatada and tax avoidance added to the confusion rather than clearing any of it up, Nadine Dorries' "arrogant posh boys" comments have led to some devastating leaders in The Sun, and the influential Public Administration Select Committee has taken aim at a lack of strategic thinking from the Government.
It was interesting to hear the committee's (Tory) chairman Bernard Jenkin dismissing the "posh boy" argument this morning, and hailing Cameron as "one of the most talented politicians of his generation". But he went on: "I think he is hampered by quite a lot of inexperienced ministers - he himself has only been a minister for two years - and a longer-term strategic approach...I think would help him."
The "inexperienced ministers" quote struck me as a thinly-veiled suggestion that the time is approaching for the PM to hold a reshuffle. While the smart money seems to be on a shake-up after the Olympics (though a Boris loss in the Mayoral election next month could change that), senior Tories are talking about the need for more working class, man/woman-of-the-people MPs on the front bench.
One even suggested a bigger role for Eric Pickles, the Communities and Local Government Secretary. It's hard to see exactly where he would go - unless the "Judge" replaced Theresa May as Home Secretary, or perhaps Ken Clarke as Justice Secretary - but having more of the plain-speaking Yorkshire curry lover on the airwaves could surely only help the Government. Nobody could accuse him of being an arrogant posh boy.

Loved this house
The house was in a good location close to Petoskey and Harbor Springs. I cannot say enough good things about the house. Everything in the house was clean from the bedrooms to the bathroom to the carpet. We even decided not to walk with shoes in the house due to how clean it was. We were a group of 14 and the house met all of our needs. There was even charcoal and lighter fluid for us to use. I dealt with Annie and she was very easy to talk to. She answered all my questions and gave me suggestions on what to do in the area. One thing that set the owner apart from the rest was when we first entered the house we found a personalized letter welcoming us and a box of cookies on the dining table. What a nice touch! We all decided that this is a house that we will definitely stay at again and again.

Countdown to Christmas with these festive movies. Check back each weekday for a new holiday recommendation.

December 6th: Love Actually (2003)
Love Actually | 137 min | R
Starring: Hugh Grant, Liam Neeson, Colin Firth, Billy Nighy, Emma Thompson, Martin Freeman, Andrew Lincoln, Keira Knightly, Laura Linney, Alan Rickman
This movie has more British stars than The Harry Potter series! Don't let that mislead you into watching this film with the whole family, it's pretty raunchy. At times more naughty than nice, Love Actually is still a heartwarming story about the triumphs and challenges of love and life's adventures along the way. Settle in and prepared yourself for an amazing soundtrack.
Catch it on TV: Thursday, December 12th and Friday, December 13th on AMC
Streaming on Netflix: Yes
December 7th: Gremlins (1984)
Gremlins | 106 min | PG/PG-13*
Starring: Zach Galligan, Phoebe Cates, Hoyt Axton, Corey Feldman
"Gremlins" is a classic tale of responsibility and a Christmas gift gone very wrong. When Billy's dad buys an adorable Mogwai creature from a mysterious store in Chinatown he pays little attention to the shopkeeper's warning: Keep it out of bright light, don't get it wet, and NEVER feed it after midnight. Guess how long it takes before things go wrong!
*Warning: This movie was originally rated PG, but that's an early 80's rating, so it's still kind of terrifying.
Streaming on Netflix: No
December 8th: A Charlie Brown Christmas (1965)
Photo: AP Photo/ABC/1965 United Feature Syndicate Inc./File
A Charlie Brown Chrismtas | 25 min | TV G
Starring: Peter Robbins, Christopher Shea, Tracy Stratford, Kathy Steinberg, Bill Melendez
Rediscover the true meaning of Christmas with that help of Charlie Brown and a sad little fir tree. After the gang focuses too much on the commercial side of the holiday a few heartwarming speeches from Charlie brown (and a classic monologue from Linus) set them right. This made-for-TV special is the perfect holiday movie for little kids (and it's only 25 minutes!)
Catch it on TV: Thursday, December 19th on ABC
Streaming on Netflix: No

The paper doll stats do not show the DR on them. So just looking at that, yeah, youll see 3% avoidance with SG vs SS at 4%. You need to get a mod to read it for you such as tankpoints.
If you stack defense, the RF will be give very little to you as opposed to SS which isnt affected by DR due to it not being a rating. Now, could take that 25 def SKILL off the DR due to it not being a rating. IMO, more testing is needed.

Here at Grazia Daily we are stalwart Mossy fans so news that an all new book Kate: The Kate Moss Book is winging its way to bookstores later this year has us all a-tizz. While we've already seen plenty of Kate compilations – most notably Taschen's 2011 Mario Testino lensed tome – this book has been created by none other than her ex and baby Daddy Jefferson Hack. Of course Jefferson is one of fashion's coolest image makers and as Editor in Chief of Another Magazine so he has a pretty well tuned eye for fashion hot-ness, but can you imagine letting an ex put together a whole book of pictures on you?
The retrospective of her work through the decades is billed to be "a highly personal and complete retrospective of Kate Moss's career, illustrating her evolution from girl to supermodel to photographic icon, created by Moss herself." With all the big boys from Hedi Slimane, Juergen Teller, Terry Richardson, Mario Testino and Karl Lagerfeld on board, the title is sure to be gracing many a stylish coffee table. What's more Mossy has also personally been involved selecting each and every image to ensure the book "spans the entirety of her unparalleled career, from model to fashion designer, and muse to icon." Go Kate.
While Kate's role in the fashion industry has been debated – when an exhibition 'Kate Moss by The Biggest Photographers' opened in La Gallerie de L'Instant in Paris last year many commentators argued that Kate Moss was merely a prop rather than a fashion creator – there's no doubt that her particular brand of rock and roll attitude has been wildly influential over the past 20 years. We'd even go so far to say we can't imagine a time when we wouldn't want to flick through a book of Kate pics – and on that note, click through the gallery above for some Kate-worship.
UPDATE ** We've just heard that The Kate Moss Book will have no less than EIGHT different covers shot by 8 different photogrpahers and will include many never before seen pictures that Kate has personally requested. Excitement!
