The video by leather artist Robert Black was playing, showing those who were interested how to knot and braid leather. Mr. Black made a knot for me while I was talking to him, and then showed me how to do it, a decorative western braid, letting me try my hand at it. It is something I would enjoy given time, but it took him no time to make the knot as we spoke, he is a master. In his display for sale were bracelets and rings, key chains and various trinkets, all leather knots, some with magnetic and ceramic beads. His website on you tube, he told me, "teaches people how to braid leather." If you're interested and want to learn more, here's the site he gave me www.youtube.com/marlinspikeknotworks
Steven Hughes leather work was very interesting and unique. I asked Steven why mask and he explained to me that he started in animation and had worked at Industrial Nightmare and Haunted Hotel, then went to writing and making mask because he wanted something that he felt would continue to develop as people developed. "Mask," he said, "are like development of character, it's the pieces that make themselves." The development of a mask is like the development of a person, their personality changes as they grown, as it is carved, shaped, and painted, so it changes, just a s a person does it their growing stages. The corset Tatyana wore was carved completely by hand and although at showing was incomplete; needing the boning finished on both sides, is magnificent.

It has been over a year since the death of 13-month-old Taylor Hartung-Mann and investigators still do not have sufficient evidence to press formal charges.
In December 2011, Taylor was found unresponsive in an Elkhart apartment complex in the 700 block of W. Bristol Street. According to eyewitnesses, emergency personnel arrived at the apartment and quickly carried the baby to an ambulance where they performed CPR. Soon thereafter, Hartung-Mann was pronounced dead at the scene.
Officials noted the toddler was not alone in the home. In fact, several people were also inside the apartment.
Taylor's family members says they want to see justice done for the infant but the prosecutor's office says that there is still not enough evidence to move forward with the case.

Comments about Bionic Pets Bionic Bone Dog Toy:
My sharpei, who has chewed to pieces most of his toys, has had this bone for over a month. It's starting to get frayed at the edges, so I don't give it too much longer, but it did outlive most of his other toys that usually get destroyed much faster. He has been chewing on this bone every other day or so, for a month, and that's pretty good mileage out of a toy in my house. Make sure that you get the size appropriate for the weight of your dog. I made the mistake and got him a bionic stick that was for a smaller-weight dog, and he destroyed that within hours.
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

Might last longer without treats in it
By Dogs best friend
from Fairfield, CA
The toy was a gift for an 11 month old 42 lb Coon Hound Mix. She is in the 1% or dogs that can take a chunk out of this toy. Perhaps having it frozen with a treat in it made that happen sooner than later.
Nice toy but not for aggressive chewers
By Teacherman
from Wooster, Ohio
My five year old female yellow lab basically had this destroyed after 3 hours of play. It would have held up forever with my 8 yr. old Golden Retriever. It is a perfect chew toy for non-aggressive chewers.

Recipes for commercially canned peaches
- Firatcim Apr 27, 2010 10:50 PM
Hi Everybody,
I have a case of canned peaches a friend gave me. I never use commercially canned fruit, or canned fruit for that matter, but my motto is "waste not, want not." I would appreciate any input as to how I can put them to best use. Thanks in advance.
Peach upside down cake is yummy. http://allrecipes.com/Recipe/Peach-Up...
Also I eat my peaches with cream of wheat, a little sugar and cinnamon. Good stuff.
Tastes good with bread pudding too, to eat on the side.
re: BamiaWruz
Canned peaches are also good mixed in the bread pudding before baking. Of course there's always stuffed french toast. I like to use italian or french bread; cut into 1 1/2 inch slices on the bias then cut a pocket in the middle of each slice. Whip up some cream cheese with a little vanilla extract, sugar & cinnamon then add drained & chopped peaches. Spoon mixture into the pockets. Whip up french toast custard of milk, eggs, sugar and a little vanilla or not. Heat an oiled skillet; Quickly dip (don't allow the bread to soak in the mix or it'll be too heavy) the french toast in the custard and cook on both sides till golden. Dust with confectioner's sugar and cinnamon.
Other uses include cobbler, crisp, ice cream and pie. On the savory side, you can cook the peaches with a little ginger and red pepper flakes to serve with pork chops or tenderloin. Puree them and add into a BBQ sauce.
I'm not much of a canned fruit person myself, but we always kept canned peaches around to make broiled peaches when guests dropped by. It's a good quick dessert with a lot of retro charm.
Drain the peaches, reserving the juice and putting it into a pan over medium-high heat. If they're peach halves, place them cut side up in a broiler safe dish with a little bit of the juice (just enough to cover the bottom of the dish). If they're sliced, just spread them out evenly. Top with butter, sprinkle with brown sugar and cinnamon and broil until very dark brown. Meanwhile add some cinnamon and brown sugar to the juice on the stovetop and reduce by at least half. Serve hot as a topping for vanilla or butter pecan ice cream, or with cream (whipped or not) over leftover biscuits.
I have a great recipe I learned to make years ago when I was a college student - it is a savory sweet and sour chicken dish:
1 3-4 lb. fryer, cut in 8 pieces
1 16 oz can sliced peaches, drained, liquid reserved
2 tsp lemon juice
2 T soy sauce
2 T red wine vinegar
1 T dark sesame oil
2 tsp freshly grated ginger
salt, pepper, garlic, allspice
In large 10-12 in skillet, brown chicken well on both sides using a little EVOO. Turn chicken skin side up. In food processor, puree half of canned, drained peaches, 1/2 cup peach liquid, soy sauce, ginger, sesame oil and vinegar. Pour over chicken. Cover chicken and cook 20-30 min till done. Just before serving, add remaining peaches, heat through. Serve with rice. You can thicken the sauce with a little cornstarch and water if you think it needs it. You can add some brown sugar to the sauce if you think it needs to be sweeter, I never do.
If you have halves, you can put them in a cake pan, top with a dot of butter for each half, sprinkle with cinnamon, and run under the broiler. great sidedish for tuna noodle casserole.
I've always been intrigued by this Jacques Pepin recipe, which actually specifies canned peaches rather than fresh:
re: katecm
Wow! I will try this at my next dinner party. Thanks.
re: katecm
I have made this and it's good!
re: katecm
At least canned peaches were ripe when they went into the can. I have trouble getting fresh ripe fruit.
re: katecm
Yep, that is a nice recipe, Kate. Glad I was able to put it in my files.
Peach Melba is all ways good, and your half way there with canned peaches...... another good one would be to strain, rinse, blend, re season, sugar and what ever else sounds good at the moment and make some peach "apple sauce"... or strain and make peach jam, once again your half way there with the peaches being peeled and canned.
re: Ryanpow
I have loved Peach Melba since childhood and we always made them from canned peaches. Thanks for reminding me.
re: boyzoma
Yumm! This sounds like a perfect cocktail. Thanks
Paula Deen's Krispy Kreme Bread Pudding
Trashy, but good and I use peaches instead of the fruit cocktail.
Canning was nothing more than a method of preserving local and seasonal fruit and vegetables for our grandmothers. I'm not sure why people get so down on it. The difference between fresh and canned is that the canned is cooked somewhat in the canning process. If you're going to cook the fruit/vegetable some more anyway, what's the difference?
There are a lot of good recipes for using canned products in cooking. Most modern canned goods are better than what my grandmother put up because of modern canning methods. I buy the products that have as little as possible in them, like "canned in their own juice," or in water, which is exactly what my grandmother did. She might have added a little citric acid to retain color. There are lots of low sodium canned vegetables. No, they aren't crispy, but they work fine in soups and braises.
When winter came, we were always able to have fruit and vegetable, even though there was nothing growing outside -because of canned products. When you can get good quality fresh, use it. But don't be worried about using canned things if you're going to cook them further.
YES! Cobbler, in fact I'd used them for years before trying fresh, and I still do.
I've used them when peaches weren't in season for a stuffed/baked french toast with grand marnier breakfast dish. And also a peach muffin recipe.
They're lovely in a pie, with some brown sugar, honey, fresh or frozen raspberries, a touch of vanilla, and a splash of cinnamon. Serve the pie with whipped cream or vanilla iced something.
Yess!..Make a Dump Cake..lots of versions out there..mine is: dump 2 15oz cans of (slice if they're halved )peaches into a (approx) 9" x 15" pan, dump a white or yellow cake mix on top of that, dump )drizzle) a melted stick of butter or 'margarine' over the dry cake mix....bake at 350 degrees approx. 30 minutes..until 'crust' is bubbly and golden brown..serve warm scoops with vanilla ice cream.
re: DawneeBabe
i was going to say this... although i never use canned fruit, i do have a fond high school camping trip memory of "baking" a cake over the campfire. the adult who came with us spread the peaches into a cast-iron skillet, poured a box of yellow cake mix over the top, and then added veggie oil over the top. he covered with a cast-iron lid and propped it over the flame. 15 minutes later and it actually SMELLED like peach cobbler out there in the woods and i have to say it was delicious. or maybe i was just hungry.
i'd never seen such a thing and haven't seen it since?
re: nothingswrong
Sounds like a tarte tatin. In lieu of apples, the chef used canned peaches and an ingenious short cut, the cake mix. Thanks for sharing.
re: Firatcim
i wouldn't call him a chef. he had us eating raw onions like apples for dinner. but it was delicious. hadn't made the tarte tatin connection. i'd like to replicate that peach "tatin" one day. it really was good.
re: tonka11_99
That peaches and cottage cheese thing is the classic cafe diet dish.
re: Sharuf
Yep right out of truck stop. Guess who's mother worked at road side joint in Texas in the 1940's?
Canned Peaches & Peach Butter! I have been looking for this recipe too! I finally found one. I am going to try it...

Publisher: Broadway Paperbacks, 2011Edition: Paperback mediumFirst: paperback editionISBN: 978-0-307-46391-3Pages: 412Language: English
The full-length, definitive biography of Bobby Fischer, with lots of previously unknown material. Includes photos, many never before published.Only Frank Brady, who met Fischer when Bobby was only 10 and shared with him some of his most dramatic triumphs, could have written this book. Drawing from Fischer family archives, recently released FBI files, and Bobby's own emails, this account describes the entire odyssey that took Fischer from an impoverished childhood to the covers of Time, Life and Newsweek to recognition as "the most famous man in the world" to notorious recluse. At first all one noticed was how gifted Bobby was. Possessing a 181 I.Q. and remarkable powers of concentration, he memorized hundreds of chess books in several languages, and he was only 13 when he became the youngest chess master in U.S. history. But his strange behavior started early. In 1972, at the historic Cold War showdown in Reykjavik, Iceland, where he faced Soviet champion Boris Spassky, Fischer made headlines with hundreds of petty demands that nearly ended the competition. It was merely a prelude to what was to come. Arriving back in the United States to a hero's welcome, Bobby was mobbed wherever he went - a figure as exotic and improbable as any American pop culture had yet produced. Commercial sponsorship offers poured in, but Bobby demurred. Instead, he began tithing his limited money to an apocalyptic religion and devouring anti-Semitic literature. After years of poverty and a stint living on Los Angeles' Skid Row, Bobby remerged in 1992 to play Spassky in a multi-million dollar rematch—but the experience only deepened a paranoia that had formed years earlier when he came to believe that the Soviets wanted him dead for taking away "their" title. When the dust settled, Bobby was a wanted man—transformed into an international fugitive because of his decision to play in Montenegro despite U.S. sanctions. Fearing for his life, Bobby lived the life of a celebrity fugitive – one drawn increasingly to the bizarre. Mafiosi, Nazis, odd attempts to breed an heir who could perpetuate his chess-genius DNA—all are woven into his late-life tapestry. Despite his incomprehensible behavior, there were many who remained fiercely loyal to him.Why that was so is at least partly the subject of this book—one that at last answers the question: "Who was Bobby Fischer?"Frank Brady is the author of numerous critically acclaimed biographies, including 'Citizen Welles', 'Onassis', and 'Bobby Fischer: Profile of a Prodigy' (the first edition of which appeared in the mid-1960's and focuses on the young Bobby). (You need acrobat reader to view these pages)(Please note that the sample pages on display are borrowed from the hardcover edition)New York Times BestsellerAl Lawrence, Chess Life:"No mere updating of his previous book on Fischer, 'Endgame' repeats only a tiny fraction of the older bio (..) Brady has produced what is a rare triumph in the chess world, a page-turner that should fascinate both serious chess players and non-players."Jeremy Silman, author of 'How to Reassess Your Chess':"Fischer is America's greatest antihero. This fascinating biography is filled with hope, Cold War intrigue, the fulfilment of genius, and an explosive fall from grace that is both deeply moving and, ultimately, profoundly sad." Janet Maslin, New York Times:"A rapt, intimate book, greatly helped by Brady's acquaintance with Fischer (..) he also makes use of unusually good source material (..) fascinating."David Shenk, author of 'The Genius in All of Us' and 'The Immortal Game':"Endgame' is rich in detail and insight. It is sympathetic and human, but not at all naive. I consider this book essential reading in the effort to understand Bobby Fischer and his place in our world."John Watson, The Week In Chess:"This is a complete biography, with only a portion repeated from Brady's famous Profile of a Prodigy, and everything revised and rewritten based upon Brady's research over the last 40 years (..) Every Fischer fan will obviously want to read and discuss it."Paul Hoffman, author of 'The Man Who Loved Only Numbers' and 'King's Gambit':"The definitive portrait of the greatest—and most disturbed—chess genius of all time."Robert Lipsyte, author of 'An Accidental Sportswriter':"Weird and fascinating ...Bravo, Brady."Pat H. Broeske, New York Times bestselling coauthor of Howard Hughes 'The Untold Story':"You don't have to know the game of chess to be mesmerized by the dizzying and ultimate dark journey of the world's most heralded player (..) A riveting look at a tarnished icon."Publishers Weekly:Engrossing (..) The Mozart of the chessboard is inseparable from the monster of paranoid egotism in this fascinating biography (..) Brady gives us a tragic narrative of a life that became a chess game."For all Bobby Fischer products click here.

The Civil War was a war fought by Americans against other Americans. Regardless of which side people chose, they were all Americans.
The people in America ranged from families living in the United States for many years, to recent immigrants who had come to a New World seeking opportunities, or freed African-Americans who fought to end slavery. Over the years, their beliefs had divided the country into North and South. These Americans had shared a common history, but it was their view of the future that divided them.
The Civil War was called a "war against brothers" because the United States was like a family, and although a person might not get along with his or her siblings, they were still a family. Whether from Pennsylvania or New York, South Carolina or Georgia, families in the North most likely knew of families in the South who fought against them. Sometimes, members of the same family went off to fight for different sides.
Some even lost their friends to the other side; the other cause. Families in both the North and South struggled to survive during this bitter war. Friends, relatives, and family members would sometimes meet on the battlefield and be forced to fight one another. It was truly a war of brother vs. brother.

- Studio: Warner Bros. Pictures
- Release Date: May 23, 2013
- Starring: Bradley Cooper, Ed Helms, Zach Galifianakis
- Summary: The continuing misadventures of the Wolfpack.
- Director: Todd Phillips
- Genre(s): Comedy
- More Details and Credits »
Score distribution:
Positive: 4 out of 37
Mixed: 14 out of 37
Negative: 19 out of 37
Galifianakis, though, is the key here. Able to smash a scene to smithereens with the simplest of lines, the hirsute comic is as unpredictable as ever, yet takes director Todd Phillips' bait to up the stakes.
And so the real question isn't whether director Todd Phillips' third -- and, he insists, the final -- installment in the unabashedly crude, very R-rated comedy trilogy is funny. Of course, it is.
Director Todd Phillips has delivered a film so different from the first two, one could even ask if this is even supposed to be a comedy. I'm not saying it's an unfunny comedy wannabe; I'm saying it plays more like a straightforward, real-world thriller with a few laughs than a hard-R slapstick farce.
Nothing about this rote exercise feels remotely fresh. It's a re-tread of the 2009 original, sans the inspired lunacy.
The Hangover Part III plays more like a caper film — "Alan's Eleven," perhaps — than a comedy. While Phillips ably handles the action sequences, he and co-screenwriter Craig Mazin can't juggle both genres in the screenplay.
If the first "Hangover" movie were this awful, there never would have been a Part Two. This is a joyless, unfunny mix of comedy and drama, a complete waste of time, with exactly one good joke in the entire movie. It comes in the first minute. After that, you can leave.
Score distribution:
Positive: 62 out of 131
Mixed: 31 out of 131
Negative: 38 out of 131
May 23, 2013IGNORE THE REVIEWS. The movie is hilarious. I saw it in a packed cinema and everyone was laughing throughout! It is a different, darker approach to the trilogy and it works! Its the perfect balance of sinister/hilarious. The Hangover is usually centered around Stu but now it's Alan's movie and the change pays off. DEFINITELY WORTH YOUR MONEY, THIS METACRITIC SCORE IS AN ABOMINATION!!… Expand
May 30, 2013Zach Galifianakis is the focus of this final installment in the decreasingly funny series. His over-the-top behavior has the other Wolfpack members taking him off to rehab…until John Goodman appears and sends them on a quest to find Mr. Chow. Instead of the "how did we get here?" scenario that fueled the first two, this one comes off as a mediocre heist. While there are amusing moments (thx mostly to Zach), the whole enterprise lacks the outrageous originality of the others.… Expand
May 24, 2013There are a few laughs in the film, and it's great to see these actors together again, but the entire affair is just flat and lacks forward momentum. The first Hangover is a modern comedy great, along with Wedding Crashers, Bridesmaids and Old School. It's very tough to make comedy sequels that work, though. Even the credits sequence wasn't all that funny but stay for it and see for yourself!… Expand
Nov 9, 2014The third and last installment of the Hangover saga gives far too much screen time to the increasingly obnoxious Alan character. Erroneously described as a "man-child", Alan seems to be a borderline narcissist psychopath. The plot includes plenty of cruelty against animals, abuse of the elderly and shocking lies (such as telling a child you are his father when you are not).… Expand

November 25, 2014
July 21, 2012
A judge in southeastern Virginia has sentenced a man to 30 days in jail for strangling his cat.
The 27-year-old defendant, Angelo Michael Stango, was found guilty Friday in Chesapeake of misdemeanor animal cruelty.
Circuit Judge Thomas Forehand sentenced Stango to one year but suspended 11 months of the sentence.
The Virginian-Pilot of Norfolk reports that Stango's girlfriend said he grabbed the cat by its throat, walked into the woods and twisted its neck. The incident occurred in October.
Stango maintained he released the once-feral cat into the woods.
At his sentencing, Stango said he did not want the incident to bring "any disrespect" to the Marine Corps, in which he served.

About Jane Asher
We are Alan and Jane pictured above with our head of security, 'Toffee.' Boat GEANNA was designed by us to be unique accommodation for our guests and to be as user friendly as possible so guests can experience life on a boat but with all the modern comforts and conveniences of home. Having successfully rented our villa in Turkey for 7 years, we wanted to transfer that experience on to the River Thames, a bit closer to home and with out all those airport queues! We also understood that our guests are not necessarily 'boating' types and would have no former boating knowledge. The boat is designed to be as safe as possible making it ideal for families with children. there are no complicated sea toilets to worry about. At the handover, we give a comprehensive handover so that you feel at home living on board a boat with all the expected comforts of 4 star accommodation.
Jane Asher purchased this house boat in 2007
Why Jane Asher chose Henley On Thames
Boat Geanna was built to our specific requirements with our guests in mind. We have ensured that the standard of accommodation is high with proper beds and with each cabin having ensuite bathrooms.We understood that guests like their privacy and so have made the 3 cabins completely separate with their own door. We also understood that guests would be wanting to use electricity for hair dryers etc and so ensured a a 5000KW generator was installed and solar panels. the boat has 2 hot water tanks, enabling guests to enjoy hot water showers without running out of hot water. Each cabin has its own plasma TV, hair dryer, just like what you would expect in a hotel.
What makes this house boat unique
GEANNA is cosy and warm in the winter with fuel burner and radiators throughout. People always ask 'Do you get cold on your boat?' The answer is quite the opposite, the boat is so well insulated and heated it can be almost too warm! The boat is light and airy and the outside decks provide cushioned seats to enjoy the stunning views as you cruise along. The layout is perfect for friends holidaying together or families and if there are more than 11 in your party, you can always book our other boat GINA and moor them alongside. This is definitely a Wind In The Willows experience!
Guestbook comments from the owner
From start to finish this turned out to beat many 5 star hotel holidays we had all taken. Firstly the hosts are attentive, lovely and fun. They gave us 2 informed fabulous river trips. Would thoroughly recommend the Henley to Reading stretch. The lovely welcome and the superb, well equipped standard of the boat - just as described on the website, makes it easy to take to the water instantly. Little extras like soap, tea bags and even a dishwasher tablet was the icing. The spaciousness and comfort of the main room in the boat is the surprise. And how can one not enjoy croissants, fresh coffee and the papers on a river, with a bank for a bar/b/q and restaurants to die for. We ate at The Crooked Billet, Phyllis Court and Orwells. All brilliant. All of us slept like babies and felt so relaxed as if we had taken a week off. Our ages ranged from 21 - 86yrs old! And we all LOVED it. This truly is a holiday for everyone. What a gem..... and we all agreed we were thrilled to avoid airports and shall return.
