Maca Bana
St. George's, GrenadaEnter your email address and zip code for pricing and availability
Why Stay At Maca Bana
This eclectic enclave is hidden away on a lush hilltop above the powdery sands of Aquarium Beach.
The Scoop
Peaceful Maca Bana is tucked away on Grenada's quiet south shore and with only 7 solar-powered villas the resort has an intimate feel. The so-called banas are crafted using wood, bamboo and local stone, while their fruit-centric names set the tone for the interior design: Cherry comes in soft-hued rosé and red accents, while Avocado sports a soothing shade of green. Each of the air-conditioned villas has its own private deck along with private plunge pools unveiling views across bay to the island's quaint capital of St. George's. Always wanted to learn about tropical food recipes? Arrange for a private cooking demonstration in your villa's fully equipped kitchen or for in-room meals prepared by one of the resort's resident chefs. Or indulge in a massage or spa treatments in your spacious bana. If you feel like mingling, sunbathe around the hotel's infinity pool or head down to the beach for dinner at The Aquarium restaurant. The distinguished menu highlights freshly caught seafood and ingredients like callaloo, pumpkin and ginger sourced directly from the resort's 15-acre organic farm.
Insider Tips
Team up with the resort's co-owner Rebecca Thompson, who is one of Grenada's best-known artists. Sign up for tours to secluded palm-fringed beaches (including a picnic) and waterfalls or for a private art lesson in painting or sketching.
Find inner balance with private yoga or Pilates sessions in the privacy of your villa or al fresco on the hillside overlooking Magazine Beach.
Preferred Airport
Arrive at Maurice Bishop International Airport (GND), which is just 5 minutes from the hotel.Magazine Beach, Point Salines, Point Salines, St. George's, Grenada

Not just for source code – Versioning with Git
Distributed Management
When several people collaborate on source code or documents, things can get messy fast. Git provides a quick cure: The distributed versioning system reliably ensures the integrity and consistency of data with minimal effort.
Documents and source code that are used, changed, and processed by multiple users are often located on a central file server while individuals work with local copies. Searching manually for differences between individual documents often leaves questions as to whether a newer version of a document exists, and if so, who is behind it. A versioning system, as employed with many software projects, can help tidy up the mess. One of the most powerful contenders in this field is Git.
Git was developed in 2005 by Linus Torvalds to manage the Linux kernel source code. To do this, Git had to meet a number of requirements.

BALTIMORE — Ray Lewis' last ride now will take him to Denver.
Anquan Boldin, Joe Flacco and a staunch Baltimore defence made sure of that Sunday.
Boldin set a franchise record with 145 yards receiving, including the clinching touchdown in the Ravens' 24-9 victory over Andrew Luck and Indianapolis in an AFC wild-card game. The win delays star linebacker Lewis' retirement for at least another week as Baltimore (11-6) heads to Denver next Saturday.
The Broncos beat the Ravens 34-17 three weeks ago.
"I wanted Denver," Boldin said. "Because they beat us."
Lewis, who made 13 tackles, even lined up at fullback for the final kneel-down in his last home game of a 17-year career. He then went into a short version of his trademark dance before being mobbed by teammates.
He followed with a victory lap, his right arm, covered by a brace, held high in salute to the fans after playing for the first time since tearing his right triceps on Oct. 14 against Dallas.
"My only focus was to come in and get my team a win. Nothing else was planned," the 37-year-old Lewis said. "It's one of those things, when you recap it all and try to say what is one of your greatest moments.
"I knew how it started but I never knew how it would end here in Baltimore. To go the way it did today, I wouldn't change nothing."
The loss ended the Colts' turnaround season in which they went from 2-14 to the playoffs in coach Chuck Pagano's first year in Indianapolis (11-6). Pagano missed 12 weeks while undergoing treatment for leukemia and returned last week.
Offensive co-ordinator Bruce Arians, who went 9-3 as interim coach, was absent Sunday after being hospitalized with an undisclosed illness. Quarterback coach Clyde Christensen called the plays, but Baltimore's suddenly revitalized defence — inspired by Lewis' pending retirement, no doubt — never let standout rookie QB Luck get comfortable.
Sunday's victory enhanced the Ravens' success rate in opening playoff games. Flacco now has won at least one post-season game in all five of his pro seasons, the only quarterback to do it in the Super Bowl era.
His main target Sunday was Boldin, who had receptions of 50 and 46 yards, plus his 18-yard TD on a floater from Flacco in the corner of the end zone with 9:14 to go.
"I told (Flacco) before the game I was going to get 200 yards," Boldin said with a chuckle.
"It's huge for us. It's huge for this city, they've supported us this entire year and they expect a lot from us. In return, we want to give it to them."
Baltimore overcame the first two lost fumbles of the season by Ray Rice, too, as John Harbaugh became the first head coach with wins in his first five playoff campaigns.
Backup halfback Bernard Pierce rescued Rice with a 43-yard burst that led to Boldin's touchdown, and ran for 103 yards.
Flacco also connected with Dennis Pitta for a 20-yard TD and rookie Justin Tucker made a 23-yard field goal.
Indy's only points came on three field goals by Adam Vinatieri, from 47, 52 and 26 yards. Luck completed 28 of 54 passes for 288 yards. It was the most attempts by a rookie in a playoff game.
Reggie Wayne had 108 yards on eight receptions and moved into second in career playoff catches with 91 — 60 behind leader Jerry Rice. But the Colts, who moved from Baltimore to Indianapolis in 1984 — they still are despised here — became the second NFL team to improve to 11 wins following a two-win season and then lose in the opening round of the playoffs.
The Ravens also beat the 2008 Dolphins in a similar scenario.
Both teams were sloppy early on, with Rice losing a fumble, Lewis dropping a potential interception, and Luck being stripped of the ball on a sack.
But Rice atoned with a 47-yard gain on a screen pass, leading to Vonta Leach's 2-yard touchdown.
That Pro Bowl backfield was bolstered by the kick returns of another Pro Bowl player, Jacoby Jones. He gained 60 yards on kickoff runbacks and 57 on punt returns.
Vinatieri, familiar with big kicks in the playoffs after winning two Super Bowls for New England with field goals, made a 47-yarder in the second quarter, a 52-yarder as the first half expired, and a 26-yarder near the end of the third period. But he also missed a 40-yarder wide right.

The Alite 2000 is not the best equipped bike, but its specification has been well considered and it rides better than other bikes tested in around the same price range. It accelerates and ascends quickly and performs well and with ease on any trail. Neutral handling and a controlled fork reassure that it can handle all types of terrain, which can often be an issue with similar costing bikes.

Genie Traffic, a new traffic exchange owned by Jack Schafer, had a solid launch. However this week someone hacked the server and installed a hidden Iframe on the homepage. Genie Traffic's host updated the server to prevent this from happening again and those changes caused someone problems with the traffic exchange script. As a result, users were unable to log in yesterday.
These problems were all taken care of quickly and everythig is running smoothly again. To my knowledge, no accounts appear to be affected by this ordeal. If you experienced differently, please let us know.
Hopefully this does not occur again in the future.

I'm getting tired of so many hacked servers, and fixes happening after the fact. It seems too many people are only worried about security after the fact. Unfortunately this probably won't change for quite a while, because people want to think they can trust others.

Personally, I don't like the term hacked. A hack is supposed to be a good thing. A fix, a workaround, an addition.
These servers got CRACKED, or broken into, if you will. As a programmer, it's disgusting, but something worth protecting against.
If anybody has any information on how this server was exploited, please contact me using the contact form on blue-surf.net, so I can learn how to protect against such exploits, if I'm not already.

The site wasn't actually "hacked". An exploit was used to inject the offending code into the infected pages. The server wasn't actually compromised.
Scott, the best way to protect yourself from these exploits is to make sure your server has the latest security updates for Apache, php, etc. You also want to have a firewall like CSF installed and add Mod_Security and a rule set into your Apache configuration.

Mac OS X Lion to include updated version of Safari with WebKit2
WebKit2, rather than being a whole new rendering engine, is a layer around WebKit that adds more stability, security and speed -- not entirely unlike the Google Chrome sandbox, which is also strapped onto a version of WebKit. The most exciting feature of WebKit2 is that it splits the browser UI and the rendered content into separate processes. It's possible that each tab will have its own process, too, like Chrome.
This is the first solid news of a Safari update since the minor revisions of desktop and iOS versions back in November. It also represents a major change for the browser, so we wouldn't be surprised if it is Safari 6, rather than 5, that ships with OS X Lion.
We're also hoping to see some benchmarks from the Lion version of Safari. Split processes is definitely a huge step forward, but its JavaScript performance is the thing that really needs to improve. Presumably WebKit2 isn't the only change that Apple plans to make to a new version of Safari, so here's hoping!

Diego tried his hand at street art this morning, as part of the Street Painting Fair in Tivoli.
While not as anonymous and surreptitious as the more famous Banksy, he was rocking his hoodie and chalk and of course managed to create some memorable art.
What a great idea for a public art project! At least until the next rainy day!!
It's November 1936.
The Depression got you depressed?
Perhaps a night out on the town is the antidote you've been looking for?

I first visited LA's famous Farmer's Market on Fairfax and 3rd Street in the mid-70's and it had already been going strong for almost 40 years at that point. It remains one of our favorite places in town and although diminished in footprint from what it once was before it was tucked into a corner of The Grove, it's still a small oasis of preservation of the past amidst the ocean of physical change and transformation that defines SoCal culture.
I found this vintage book of colorful illustrations and photos in a thrift store all the way in Woodstock, N.Y. of all places. Wonder how it got there?
According to the book, the market was the brainchild of one Roger Dahljelm back in the midst of the Great Depression, who took the notion to a friend named Fred Beck, an ad man, and Beck sold the concept to Earl Gilmore who owned a big farm including the tract of land that the current market sits on. The market will be 80 years old this summer, so I guess it was a pretty solid idea after all.
David Hollander wrote a wonderful play once called The Sun Diaries about a group of regulars, free lance script readers and analysts for the studios and independent producers, who meet at the market and kibbitz and trade horror stories about their low level wanna-be creative jobs. The conceit of the play is that, as expected and desired by the system, one reader has read and covered close to a thousand screenplays without ever recommending a single one. But to his dismay, he is reading a script that he loves, knowing that his recommendation could force his boss to actually have to read the thing, and perhaps cost him his job. It was a wonderfully droll piece of humor and so familiar and true to those of us who started in the business as readers and used the farmer's market as our office!
I have some great old color photos from the book to scan and share with you next.
The holidays were a fun escape for many reasons, but one of the pleasures of the season was the discovery of the 60's channel on the XM radio in our rental car.
At Elsa and Natalie's insistence, we stayed tuned to 60's on 6, and put the pedal to the metal cruisin' the Hudson River Valley to the sounds of famous and one-hit-wonder tunes from my childhood.
While the songs were almost all familiar, many of the names of these groups were lost to the fog of time in my memory, so it was also fun to look them up and reconnect to these lesser known performers of the era.
Check out the chart below:
The Spiral Starecase? The Blues Magoos?
Can you connect the group to the song they made famous, and name that tune?
I found this old travel brochure of a State Park near Ithaca, N.Y. at a vintage store in Woodstock.
I loved the black and white photographs of nature inside.
It reminded me of my own childhood exploration of the Starved Rock State Park on the Illinois River outside of Peru, Illinois.
Every state park seems to have places named after the Devil, and this is a picture of Lucifer Falls in Enfield.
I vaguely recall that Starved Rock had a Devil's Playground, or something like that. It always felt very Nathaniel Hawthorne to me in regards to this view of the satanic nature of the nature surrounding us (and within us)!
This is a place called The Old Mill, like the famous Disney short cartoon of the same name.
Here is a bridge over "The Narrows". Beautiful.
I hope we get to visit there one day and compare then to now. Hopefully not much has changed. In the meantime we can enjoy the place vicariously through these vernacular images.

The Abyss Is Over, The Regular Season Is HerePosted by on September 7, 2009 – 8:04 am
And you thought it would never get here. The offseason, training camp and the preseason are over and the regular season is here. The Vikings begin their season with bout against the Browns as they travel to Cleveland on Saturday for the season-opener on Sunday.
But before the regular season begins at noon Sunday, an exciting week of activities is planned for the fans, with Vikings players, alumni, cheerleaders and other personalities scheduled to take part in the action. Click the link in the previous sentence for a full list of the events and for more information on how you can participate.
One highlight of 2009 Vikings Kickoff Week will be a series of kickoff parties at Buffalo Wild Wings locations all across the Metro on Thursday night. LB E.J. Henderson, Vikings Ring of Honor member John Randle and radio voice of the Vikings Paul Allen are just a few examples of Vikings personalties who will be present at these kickoff parties.
The activities during kickoff week will lead right up to Sunday's Vikings-Browns game, and that's when we can finally put the offseason, training camp, the preseason and the teasing kickoff week activities in the rear view mirror and enjoy the real thing.

This is going to be a real tough division, I think we all know that. Maybe the most underrated division in the league. It wouldn't come as any surprise if we won the division, or if Chicago or Green Bay did. All 3 teams have lots of talent. The team that worries me most is GB. They lost about 5-6 games last year by 3 points or less, so you know they aren't far away. First things first, we have to win the games that u r supposed to, for example, our first 3 weeks we have CLE,DET,SF. If we don't win at least 2 of those then that could be trouble. Secondly, play well within ur division. Always a chance to either make-up ground or further separate urselves from the pack. But I like our team, I'm really excited about what we can do. This could be our best team since the '98 team. One game at a time.
By purplehorn on Sep 7, 2009 | Reply
One game at a time is the absolute truth. There isn't a team in the NFL that you don't need to prepare for. I don't see Chicago or Detroit as the threats this year. Green Bay is our rival again and this will send the ratings through the roof on MNF game four. It is a huge game.
The Vikings have really built a solid football team this year. I'm looking forward to the possibilities and just need some good luck and the ball to bounce their way a few times to make great things happen. Anybody got a score for the season opener? Vikings 21- Browns 10.
By PAVikesFan on Sep 7, 2009 | Reply
Vikings 19
Browns 13
This being Brett's first reg. season game with Minny, I think it will be a bit of a struggle, he's gonna need some games to get confident with guys around him and get comfrotable witht them. Even though the Browns aren't going to be that good this year, it wouldn't shock me if they wound up winning this game. It's their home opener, their first game with a new HC, a QB(whomever it may be) who is going to want to prove something. I don't think it's going to be as easy as evryone thinks.

we have not been under rated as a division the last few yrs we have not been a good division and thats a fact,Now we are and if u don't think chicago will be a factor ur wrong.We have 3 good teams this yr vikes,gb,and chicago.No team tyhat faces either of the 3 will think it's a cake walk.Chicago doesn't have proven recievers but I think the ones they have will surprise some teams and the d will be almost as good as past yrs,They lost a good back but their man back is a force still.Gb has a decent d and rodgers didn't do bad at all last yr I think the d let them down in close games last yr but will be better this yr.They have good recievers and a good running game also.I think we will win the division because we have a complete team on both sides of the ball and favre won't have to have the pressure of winning games with his arm this yr.He will have a good yr and just has to manage the game and we all know when he's hot u can't watch all the recievers and ap will make them pay.One thing for sure our recievers will show their stuff now that they will be getting the ball in their hands more and we have a lot of speed and harvin makes it even more deadly for defenses to cover one on one..We need to win convimcingly coming out the first 4 games and we will.

I think the Vikings are going to dominate the Browns. Chilli is going to want to make a statement offensively, so other teams will have to respect all aspects of our offense. If anyone thinks that the Browns are going to score double digits on our defense, they are mistaken. Vikings D is going to have at least three shutouts this year, and this game could be one of them. This isn't the same team we've had in the past. Be prepared for dominating performances.
Vikings 24
Browns 3
And both Chicago and GB are going to be tough this years. The games with the lions were close last year. So you never know what could happen in inner-division games. We really could have three teams in the pllayoffs this year. NFC East is over-rated this year. They will only have one team in the playoffs. NFC South may have two teams. NFC West will only have one.

Landing Pages (Mini websites)
Another effective method in building your web presence is to create landing pages or mini websites. Landing pages will help in two ways; first, to focus on a specific product or service with a promotion or unique call to action; then secondly by targeting specific keywords or key phases. Search engines will give higher relevancy to web pages that are focused on specific keywords.
A great example with Google uses the key phrase "website design, new brunswick". Out of 1,850,000 searches "Award-Winning Web Design…" is listed as the first listing in the organic search area. This is not paid advertising and is based on the search relevancy only. This is a landing page (mini website) with a separate domain (.com) from the main website (bluewatermarketinggroup.com).

The completion of a waste transfer facility on Sunbeam Lane in Lafayette is now in jeopardy.
City-Parish Council voted to ban any new waste transfer facilities in Lafayette Parish, including the one currently being constructed on Sunbeam Lane.
The ordinance, proposed by Councilman Brandon Shelvin, specifically targets the Sunbeam construction site.
For weeks, residents have protested its location, just feet away from homes.
Tuesday night, council decided to side with the voters- stopping that project... At least for now.
The company developing the facility is RR Company. General Manager, Kevin Ayers would not comment on Tuesday night's vote, however he suggested the developers will be consulting with attorneys this week to discuss any further actions.
Depending on how this plays-out in court, City-Parish President Joey Durel says there's a possibility of a lawsuit ranging in the tens of millions of dollars.
If that is the case, both the city and the parish would be responsible for those damages.

Teacher quality

Parent involvement
Kindergarten teacher was great second grade teacher great if your lucky to have the teacher we had but I will say the majority of the parents there are so snooty therefor snooty kids. Alot of the parents act like they are so much better than the next person.(fake too) Ruins it for the few really nice parents there. Those parents will only drop off their kids if its in front of the door or gate entrance instead of driving up all the way that you are suppose to so they create long lines.
My kid is in Pre-School. Ever since she started has become more social and improved her communication skills. Her teacher gave a detailed insight over her classroom behavior which is very helpful to work those areas at home.
I attended LESD 10 years ago and absolutely loved every minute I was there. My teacher Mrs. Petty was the best teacher I ever had. LESD is a wonderful school and I highly recommend it to all parents in the area.
To the parent of the autistic child. My son is also autistic. He excelled beyond my wildest dreams. He was ultimately transferred to general population pre-k along with some of his peers and his growth and development continue to amaze me. My other son has been attending since kinder and I cannot say enough about Mrs. Nowell. She rocks!!!! She is honest, genuinely loving, strict, and understanding. Both Kim Hill and Mrs. Nowell dealt with it appropriately and kept it moving!!! I get daily reports via email on my boys progress and his challenges. I will make sure my boys stay in the litchfield school district through out their student careers. Ms. Hartwick is also the bomb!!! The only time I have ever seen her in her office is when I had a conference with her. Other than that she is in the trenches even during the summer months you can see her and her umbrella ushering our little angles from point A to point B and C if necessary. I absolutely love that they apply appropriate levels of discipline and follow it up by an equal amount of love. Both of my boys know what is expected of them and they voluntarily strive to meet and exceed those goals. LES ROCKS!!!!!!!!!!
Litchfield Elementary school has been dedicated to providing excellent academic and character education for decades. I am grateful that my grandson has the opportunity to take advantage of all the Litchfield School District has to offer.
The new traditional academy should be a big plus for the school and the district. It's quite competitive to get a slot. However, all the kids in the traditional school are supposed to be working at grade level and not a discliplinary problem. It doesn't seem that this has been very strictly applied. We'll find out for sure next year.
Great School, Great staff!! My daughter is doing really good there, and the teachers are awsome!
My daughter was varianced at Litchfield El. for her entire primary education. The teachers are great, administration is great, academics are great. Wonderful community involvement and support. Nice to see families who care about their kids and their kids' academics. If there is ANY problem at all, it is the politics played by the little snooty Mommy group known as the PTSA. They do a great job of fund raising, but refuse to spend their $60k plus on the kids. There are several projects that have been approved and fund raised for (playground equip, stage sound system, landscaping, gopher removal, etc....) yet the PTSA hangs on to the money and fights over which husbands' company gets to do the work. the PTSA needs to be wiped out and started over again. Great school, they PTSA just needs to stop handcuffing the Principal and do what is best for the KIDS!!!
Reading the last two reviews makes me scratch my head. As an active parent and a PTA member I know these parents made little effort to get to know the principal who is very open to meeting parents. My son child bullied also. Within a DAY the bully was left off a field trip. Immediate action was taken by the teacher and principal. The staff make a great effort to help all students succeed. I volunteer and I see this happening. The school has some of the the smallest class size I have seen in public schools, so to say there is 'too many kids' means they have not researched class sizes in AZ at all. This is a great school but like any school a parent needs to be involved and get to know their teachers.
If you have a choice, don't send your kid to this school. They don't care about the children. Everything is black and white with them. Your kid is either good for them or bad for them, either way it's all about them. They give up on kids who aren't perfect. The reason they're highly performing isn't because they're a good school it's because most kids are there on variances and they deny kids who need any extra effort to highly perform.
I heard so many great things about this school so I applied for a variance and was thrilled that my son was accepted. It appears to be a good school on the outside. It's very cute, they have a helper-dog that is on campus, and the openness is gorgeous. It's all appearance though. They fail big time on academic and social education. There was a bully in my sons class, reported by several parents, and nothing came of it. They never gave me an honest report of how my son was doing, telling me he was fine, a great helper, great student, etc. etc. until variance renewal when I find out he's been getting in trouble all year. Then they sent a hugely insulting, extremely unprofessional letter to me about him. (For the record, I've never heard from anyone that my son has been a bad kid until the last weeks of school there). Academically, they have too many kids and don't challenge the kids to work at their own pace, kids get bored or frustrated waiting for other students to catch up. They don't have a strict grading system to let parents (or kids) track their kids progress, but they expect the kids to know where they stand. Overall, I'm glad my son will be going to a new school next year.
I am a parent at LES and I teach an after school Drama program to the students. I am very excited and proud to be apart of the education of our future leaders of the world. LES is a great school and I hope to continue providing a Theatre Arts program at the school. The teachers are great and the school offers fun outside events for community. Every year they hold a Fall Carnival that is very impressive and "A LITTLE DRAMA" students dance to THRILLER! It is so much fun!
I think Litchfield stands out as a better school in AZ. The principal is very visible and willing to listen and the teachers care very much for the students. The parents are a mixed bag, the PTA is not too visible, and the Litchfield Park residents come across as particularly unwilling to help.
My husband and I can't say enough great things about this school! We have a son in 1st grade and a daughter in 2nd. They both love this school and as a family we have been impressed with all of projects and programs offered. The children work at their own pace and are evaluated often for appropriate placement. Both children are learning above grade level. The Principal is very friendly and visible on campus daily. We are very pleased with our choice in schools!
My grand daughter who is in 1st grade has attended Litchfield Elementary for her full day Kindergarten and 1st grade as of 2-9-2009. I have nothing but praise for the staff and administration at this school. I am a retired teacher who has taught for 38 years in grades 1-12; and can professionally state that I have observed nothing but caring loving teachers who are teaching with great skills. The Principal also is doing an outstanding job with the same love and caring attitude. This is truly an outstanding school and we are most thankful that our granddaughter has been able to attend.
My son is autistic. Since starting the special education pre-k program at this school he has regressed steadily. He fears going to school! the school is unwilling to budge on iep goals or recommendations by parents. There are no tyical peers avalable for pre-k special education programs so they apparently do not care about providing a FAPE. I am in the process of removing my child from this school and homeschooling because it is so bad! if you have a special neeeds child please beware!
We are thrilled with our Son's achievements in 4th grade during his first full school year at an U.S. School. The tremendous support he received from his Class teacher and the School at all is absolute remarkable. He is still a ESL student and we look forward to his 5th grade year with great optimism.
Our son just finished kindergarten at LES and we had a wonderful experience. Mrs. Ellis is and was an amazing teacher for our son. I can't say enough about Mrs. Ellis she is one of the best teachers and she had such a positive impact on our son. The staff at LES is great. The parents are very involved and we are looking forward to first grade.
I am so pleased with this school! My son just finished 1st grade here and I am thrilled at how well he has done. The teachers really seem to care about the children and it shows! This school has a very 'one great big happy family' feel to it and I am proud that my child attends Litchfield.
I'm on my third child attending LES and remain thrilled that we've had the opportunity to send our children there. Quality teachers and a lot of parent involvement as well as strong leadership have kept this school on track and will continue to do so. GREAT school!

"Hold the anchovies!" was the pizza-ordering cliché of my favorite childhood TV shows and movies. The Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, in particular, convinced me that no sane person would choose to eat them. All the anchovy relatives — sardines, herring, and mackerel — were also tainted in my mind. For most of my life, however, I had unknowingly savored their understated nuttiness in Caesar-salad dressing and pasta sauce.
These small fish — also known as forage fish — grow and reproduce quickly. According to Alison Barratt of the Monterey Bay Aquarium's Seafood Watch program, forage fish "are theoretically some of the most abundant in the ocean," which is "beneficial if you're looking for fish you can catch in abundance without impacting the population." So fulfilling our seafood needs with forage fish reduces the environmental impact of our diet. Tiny fish are also an affordable source of nutrients difficult to find in plant foods, including essential omega-3 fatty acids and vitamins D and B12.
Unfortunately, sticking to small species isn't enough to eliminate ecological damage. Mediterranean sardines are severely overfished, and attempts to manage these fisheries have been ineffective. Nevertheless, Twilight Greenaway of Grist recently concluded that forage fish are still one of the most sustainable forms of animal protein for humans. For sardines, stick with those harvested from sustainable Pacific fisheries. Almost all mackerel and herring are safe bets.
The high oil content of forage fish — the source of those healthy omega-3s — accounts for their intensely "fishy" flavor. The oil also makes these fish quite perishable, which means that most of us have been exposed to fresh or canned fish that have been handled improperly.
So pay attention at the market. When buying fresh small fish, recall the regular fish-shopping rules: look for crystal-clear eyes, crimson gills, and flesh that bounces back when pressed. When selecting canned fish, remember that the best are packed in olive oil; skip those packed with soybean oil and high-fructose corn syrup.
Some folks snack on sardines straight from the can, but if you prefer subtler flavors, cook with them instead. Anchovies in particular contribute a savory background note to many dishes. Tangy ingredients like tomatoes, olives, capers, citrus juice, and vinegar complement all of these species.
Here are eight ideas for experimenting with small fry.

si hay algo que me encanta son los mariscos aca en chile donde vivo hay mucha variedad de ello,muy buen post ,lo mejor de todo es que fue muy apetitoso jajaja
I have been eating these types of fish all my life..too bad not many people appreciate them.

Fenix PD32 Flashlight
Small, bright, and sturdy. This is what I found with the Fenix PD32 flashlight. The Fenix PD32 is a hand held flashlight that easily fits into the palm of my hand. Its overall length is 5". The light source is a Cree LED (XP-G2) which outputs a maximum of 340 lumens. The life span on the LED is 50,000 hours. The function selector switch determines the mode — SOS, strobe, low, medium (bright), high (really bright), and turbo (really, really bright). After the initial playing around with it,… Full review
Fenix LD02
I got this light for a backup/quick access light on my backpack, and it works great. It runs on 1 AAA battery, has three brightness settlings. The lowest setting is about as bright as a cheap AAA flashlight, and the brightest setting is adequate for almost any task in the dark, up to about 10-15 feet away, but I believe that it goes back to the medium setting after a bit, to avoid burning up the bulb. Full review
NiteCore SRT7 Revenger
The SRT7 is a 1x18650, 2xCR123A/RCR model that is distinguished by several additional features, including multi-color secondary LEDs. I believe it is also the first Nitecore light I've tested with the latest XM-L2 white LED. The SRT7 has a forward tailcap clicky — press and release for momentary on, click for locked on. Mode switching is controlled by the magnetic control ring in the head. As previously mentioned, the SRT7 features a continuously-variable interface for the main white LED. But… Full review
NiteCore SRT7 Revenger
A do-it-all flashlight that is as bright as the sun. Right size, the right features, and an all around perfect flashlight. I am not a flashlight aficionado, but I can appreciate a quality light. I bought this on sale for $80 and it is the single greatest flashlight I have ever purchased; ever. This is like having the sun in the palm of your hands. It has a bunch of modes like an SOS strobe, blue/red/green/ blue/red flashing LEDs and a dimmable cree LED in true white that can be adjusted from non… Full review
Fenix E25 Flashlight
A spot light that fits in your pocket and runs on 2 AA's. This is my go-to light. It's very bright, and shines a beam like a spotlight up to around 50 yards, but will light up things up to about 100 yards. I have no issue at all night hiking with this light because it's so bright and shines so far. I initially got it for exploring mines and caves because my Petzl TacTikka XP just wasn't enough for the mist filled air, or the long tunnels (good headlamp, bad spot light). i got my E25 for $30 and… Full review
Maglite Mini Maglite Pro 2-AA Cell LED
This is my go-to light. Efficient, lightweight, and practical. These are lightweight, practical flashlights. I like the AA battery lights because when I'm hiking, all of my battery powered gear takes "AA's". This light is bright enough and not only can it be used in beam and flood, but also if you unscrew it all the way, it can be used as an emergency lantern. The sheath can be dangerous in rough terrain because you can push it out with your leg or gear and lose it for good. That is why I add lanyards… Full review
Light & Motion Focus Head
At 165 lumens, the Focus light head is the brightest red light this reviewer as ever seen. Add to that a 60-degree wide beam, and night hiking (and, presumably, diving) is an entirely new experience. The Focus is an interchangeable lens for the GoBe+ lighting platform. I have found everything related to the GoBe+ to be high quality and incredibly bright. At this time, the Focus lens must be purchased separately from the GoBe+. At $99 (in addition to the $300 charge for the GoBe+), it is an expensive… Full review
Light & Motion GoBe+ 700 Wide
If the Sun is a bit too heavy to carry in your pack, then I would recommend the GoBe+ 700 Wide. It's less weight than the Sun, and it doesn't require sunscreen. This light throws out a ridiculously bright 700 lumen, 60 degree beam. Designed for divers and adapted for hikers and bikers, this reviewer was asked to test the fuller GoBe+ system in a caving application. While I have determined caving is not the best use for this light, it is still a quality light in the dark. Note: This reviewer was… Full review
Light & Motion GoBe+ 500 Search
The GoBe+ 500 Search is a 500-lumen, 8-degree spot beam that is so bright, Light & Motion has to put warning labels on it regarding eye damage! Designed for divers and adapted for hikers and bikers, this user was asked to test the fuller GoBe+ system in a caving application. While I have determined caving is not the best use for this light, it is still a quality light in the dark.

The affirmative determinations resulted from a 5-1 vote. Chairman Lynn M. Bragg, Vice Chairman Marcia E. Miller, and Commissioners Carol T. Crawford, Jennifer A. Hillman, and Stephen Koplan voted in the affirmative. Commissioner Thelma J. Askey voted in the negative.
The affirmative determinations mean that the ITC found that there is a reasonable indication that a U.S. industry is threatened with material injury by reason of imports of elastic rubber tape from India that are allegedly subsidized and sold in the United States at less than fair value.
As a result of the ITC's affirmative determinations, the U.S. Department of Commerce will continue to conduct countervailing duty and antidumping investigations of imports of elastic rubber tape from India, with its preliminary countervailing duty determination due on or about November 12, 1998, and its preliminary antidumping determination due on or about January 25, 1999.
The Commission's public report Elastic Rubber Tape from India (Investigation No. 701-TA-383 (Preliminary) and 731-TA-805 (Preliminary)), USITC Publication 3133, October 1998) will contain the views of the Commission and information developed during the investigations.
Copies of the report are expected to be available after October 30, 1998, by calling 202-205-1809 or from the Office of the Secretary, 500 E Street SW, Washington, DC 20436. Requests may also be faxed to 202-205-2104.
Product Description:
The imported product subject to these investigations is a vulcanized, non-cellular rubber strip, of either natural or synthetic rubber, 0.006 inches to 0.100 inches (0.15 mm to 2.54 mm) in thickness, and 0.125 inch to 1.625 inches (3mm to 42 mm) in width, or wider. It is principally used as the elastic in the leg openings of briefs for men's and women's underwear and in children's and women's swim wear. Elastic rubber tape is also used in limited amounts in other apparel like sportswear, pajamas and general children's wear, as well as in fitted bed sheets and in health care products.
Status of Proceedings: 1. Type of investigations: Preliminary countervailing duty and antidumping. 2. Petitioners: Fulflex, Inc., Middletown, RI; and Elastomer Technologies Group, Inc., Stuart, VA, and RM Engineered Products, Inc., North Charleston, SC. 3. Preliminary investigations instituted by the USITC: August 18, 1998. 4. Commission's conference: September 8, 1998. 5. USITC vote: October 2, 1998. 6. USITC determinations to the U.S. Department of Commerce: October 2, 1998. U.S. Industry: 1. Number of producers in 1997: Three. 2. Location of producer's plants: Scotland Neck, NC; North Charleston, SC; and Stuart, VA. 3. Employment of production and related workers in 1997: 1/ 4. Apparent U.S. consumption in 1997: 1/ 5.

Publish Your Own Recipe on CHOW
- davina Oct 30, 2007 09:14 AM
We've got a new feature: publish your own recipe on CHOW!
A member recipe is your very own original recipe. (Be sure to read the small print, though: copyrighted material should not be posted on the site.) Share them with friends, post links to the Home Cooking boards, or just keep them to yourself for future reference.
And here's how it's done: to publish a recipe, just click the Publish-a-recipe button -- it's in multiple places, including on all recipes, on the CHOW home page, and in the CHOW header at the top of all pages. Or just click here: http://www.chow.com/recipes/publish . You'll see a bunch of fields, ready and waiting for your culinary masterpiece. You can upload a photo, and associate the recipe with other recipes on CHOW. Let us know how it works for you, and what's not clear.
You can access all your member recipes in your myCHOW profile page, under Favorites.
Along with all this newness, you'll see that we've redesigned our recipe pages. We've put in better browsing capability -- by cuisine and by course, so if one recipe doesn't suit you, you should be able to find others quickly. And we've revealed the tags attached to each recipe, so that you can cross-reference -- see all roasts, for example: http://www.chow.com/tags/325-roast.
We'll be implementing ratings in the next few days. If other Chowhounds have rated a recipe, you'll see the aggregated ratings on the right below the video. You'll be able to rate any recipe.
Just like with Places, we're calling this beta: that means you should try it out, and let us know what you think. What works, what doesn't work, what you like. As usual, we'll be monitoring your reactions here on the Site Talk board, and fixing anything that's broken as quickly as possible.
We've got great plans for our member recipes. Soon you'll be able to submit them in contests. If you want to get ahead of the game, get your holiday cookie recipes in the database now. We'll be asking for your best recipes to enter into our first contest, in November.
I think it's a totally rad feature with greatly improved design and functionality...but I am only one man.
re: atheorist
There may be a delay, i can look into it. but i found your recipe on your favorites page: http://www.chow.com/recipes/11187
re: davina
The link you've posted is broke. I get "sorry but...." anyway. When you are up and running this sounds fun, and a great way to organize since my bookmarks are so full! I hope your successful, and can't wait for the contest!
re: davina
I thought I checked off for it to appear under "Side Dish" and under "Russian" but it does not seem to...
Maybe it should be a "project" instead of a side dish.
I'm a bit confused. Is there any way to distinguish between CHOW recipes and member recipes without clicking on them? Is it possible now, or might it be sometime in the future, to search only for one and not the other? or at least to have the two distinguised in the search results?
re: davina
Thanks - I agree that that would be a nice feature. One thing that has kept me from posting recipes at this point, FWIW, is that one of the useful aspects of the HC board is the dialogue about recipes that ensues after one posts them. I know that the recipe function has a comment part to it, but since it doesn't show up the way posts do, and one can't reply to a comment, I'm not sure at this point how interesting it is to me. Just something to think about. Of course, the nice formatting of the recipe function is a positive.
re: MMRuth
That's true, and it's something we've discussed. We thought that people would publish their recipes, then post a link to HC to start a discussion about them, or share them. Would that work for you?
re: davina
If I understand what you're suggesting, I don't offhand see an advantage to having a recipe in one place and the discussion/tweaks somewhere else. If someone posts a recipe and someone else says I tried it but would double the amount of X and halve the amount of Y, I'd want to see that at the time I was reading the recipe rather than having to click somewhere else to find out whether or not anyone had any specific recommendations.
re: MMRuth
FWIW - I've been thinking more about why I haven't used this feature - and I guess that, so far, I can't find a reason to use it rather than just post on the Home Cooking board.
re: hannaone
You're right, it's working for tags, but not for cuisines.
here's tags:
but cuisine is empty:
i'll look into it.
re: chef chicklet
Hi there,
I see your photo there: http://www.chow.com/recipes/11248
Do you see an "edit" link at the top right, to the right of the title? If you click that, you should be able to make the changes you want.
re: sixelagogo
According to Davina - above - looks like not yet:
But hannaone has been updating a list on the home cooking board:
It seems the "goes with" function isn't working. I've been trying to link several of the kimchi and ban chan recipes I posted to go with each other and with the bulgogi recipe here:
but it isn't working.
I just saw this feature. I understand the copyright issue. One of the really offputting features of online recipe posting sites is that people claim other peoples recipes - or recipes that are essentially public domain - as their own. As we all know, most culinary creativity is basically on the margins, although many hounds are wonderful creative cooks that never look at a recipe, there is usually one or more source.
I think it would be an advance - and make me more comfortable with this feature - to add a field for sources - where the recipe came from, how it was developed - that would give credit where credit was due. - i.e. I tweaked a recipe my Mom got in the 40s from a swedish friend to sub butter for some/all of the shortening or "I was inspired by a dish I had at Suzanne Goin's restaurant/saw online at x" Thought Maida Heatters recipe from Great Cookies was really great but I only had y on hand and substitute it for the x she calls for" - like we do in normal posts on the home cooking board.
re: jen kalb
That's a great idea, jen -- and an important point. It's something we encourage people to do in the introduction field.
Just a tip for those who have posted more than one recipe:
In the tags section be sure to include your screen name for every recipe you submit.
This will let you generate one link that will show an "index" of your recipes - like this one
As long as you include the "name tag" in any new recipe postings, this "index" will refresh itself to include the new material.
