Hockey heros: North End idea going nationwide
Manitoban looking to expand program that assists kids
VANCOUVER -- This holiday season, Norm Flynn attended 11 parties in eight cities across Canada.
If things go according to plan, he will have a chance to travel to even more in 2013.
Flynn is the founder and executive director of Vancouver-based Hockey Education Reaching Out Society, more commonly known as HEROS. Operated mainly by volunteers, the group's program assists youngsters in some of Canada's poorest neighbourhoods.
The parties, which included dinner and gifts for program participants and their families and donations to community groups, were extensions of regular on-ice and off-ice sessions that include hockey instruction and off-ice counselling.
Since Flynn started HEROS in 1999, it has expanded from 13 youngsters from Vancouver's notoriously poor Downtown Eastside to more than 450 -- and counting -- per year in communities ranging from Calgary to Toronto and points in between, but not Saskatchewan or the Maritimes -- yet.
"We're researching a couple of new locations (for HEROS chapters) for 2013," said Flynn.
Since its inception, HEROS has helped more than 3,400 boys and girls. For every kid that is in the program, there are two or three times that many who can't get in because of limits on numbers that schools select, said Flynn. HEROS also attempts to control expansion in order to grow properly.
Flynn, 51, a former junior and university player, forged the idea for HEROS based on his own upbringing in Winnipeg's North End. As a youth, he fought frequently in his crime-laden neighbourhood before getting involved in hockey.
But Flynn, who now lives in Vancouver, did not like what became of some friends. Some joined gangs and were killed in shootings.
The former Colgate sales executive started HEROS as a volunteer while also investing some of his own money, modelling it after New York City's successful Hockey in Harlem project. In 2006, he gave up his business career to devote himself full-time to HEROS.
In addition to Vancouver, HEROS chapters operate on B.C.'s Sunshine Coast as well as in Calgary (two), Edmonton, Winnipeg (two), Toronto (two), Montreal, and Ottawa, which started up this year. Participants are chosen by schools in qualifying neighbourhoods.
Participants include native Canadians and immigrants, many of whom have struggled in school and are dealing with attention deficit disorder, fetal alcohol syndrome and other health issues. In addition to being bullied, some are trying to amend their bullying ways. Several early program participants are now involved as mentors in the group led by 100 volunteers.
Current and past NHLers have gone on the ice with the kids. Winnipeg Jets winger Evander Kane has participated in a HEROS summer session in his hometown of Vancouver and is expected to become more active in the Manitoba capital with HEROS once the NHL lockout ends.
HEROS also provides post-secondary scholarships for participants to help further their education. This year, 10 scholarships have been handed out, but the number is slated to increase to approximately 36 over the next two years and 50 within five years.
Nick Wilson, 24, who has been involved with HEROS for about 11 years, said the program provided him with opportunities that he would never have had otherwise. Wilson, now a HEROS mentor, grew up on Vancouver's Downtown Eastside, where he still resides.
With financial and other help from HEROS, he was able to play minor hockey, get through college criminology studies and obtain employment as a recreational leader with an Aboriginal centre also located on the Downtown Eastside.
Wilson, who was raised by a single mother and is of partial Aboriginal descent, is going through the Vancouver Police Department's interview process and hopes to enter the police academy in the spring.
"It's a great stepping stone for me in my career," Wilson said of HEROs. "It gives (disadvantaged kids) the opportunity to experience a lot more than they possibly could."

Boffins turn to Wii tech for speech-loss therapy
Researchers at London's City University are to try out motion control gaming hardware - Nintendo's Wii Remote, Microsoft's Kinect and Sony's PlayStation Move - to see if the technology can help stroke victims cheaply and easily regain the power to communicate. One of the likely outcomes of a stroke is aphasia, effectively the …
No, I will not provide a title.
Shame MS downgraded Kinect's camera at the last minute, killing the chance for sign language reading. It might have been useful for this type of application. Better than making subjects grip a dildo^H^H^H^H^H^H controller.
Then, again, can you imagine a Microsoft patient care app?
'It looks like you're trying to summon a nurse, do you want help with that? Are you sure?'
'You appear to be turning blue, please adjust the camera so I can see you properly'
Oh no I can see clippy making a return :(

Of course.

The speedy Morgan, a .280 career hitter, has 117 career steals during six seasons in the majors. He finished second in the NL with 42 steals in 2009 for the Pirates and Nationals.
Morgan was a sparkplug for the Brewers during their playoff run in 2011, when he batted. 304 with four homers, a career-high 20 doubles and 37 RBIs in 119 games.
He was selected in the 2002 amateur draft by Pittsburgh after a four-year junior hockey stint in Canada.

I was very apprehensive about the decision to trade my 2011 Falcon XR6 and downsize to a 2litre engine.
This new sedan from Japan may be simple but it is sizable.
Cheap and cheerful, the Japanese brand's city sedan is a solid, no frills proposition.
The Japanese brand's plug-in electric SUV has a lot to offer but only in certain conditions.
I cannot stress just how good this car is for the money compared to it's direct competitors. If you can afford the slightly higher fuel costs, get one.
It might live in the shadow of its Evo 10 borther, but the Lancer Ralliart is an entertaining drive at a bagain price.
just need to increase the ball weight when towing, for caravans whish is why i purchased the car. great on road with fuel ( disiel) and towing the van,
Very enjoyable driving car, reliable, solid. Should have sold more, would have if it was an AWD/RWD.
very reliable car - easy to drive I would buy another Mitsubishi car

I think Valkryie UFO ultramaden is one i just got it and it has all of those things
zomg i cant believe no one has said this anime, true otakus would say MAHOROMATIC!!! MAHOROMATIC!!!MAHOROMATIC!!!MAHOROMATIC!!!MAHOROMA TIC!!!MAHOROMATIC!!!MAHOROMATIC!!!MAHOROMATIC!!!
v.v *cough*
remember its a Gainax conspiracy
I think Valkryie UFO ultramaden is one i just got it and it has all of those things
I think that Genshiken is a good one. It's funny and it talks a bit about sex but doesn't show anything really besides kissing. It's also somewhat of a love story as well. I really enjoyed it but I never hear anything of it. It's also really short with only 3 volumes of the anime.
that show has all of the above and beyond of what you want. from hentai guys to girls wrestling and lesbians
Born to rule, raised to lead, taught to establish: The African Queen
the gundam seed series is also a really great show
i think they r worth checking out
rumbling hearts has romance and ecchi and a little of comedy at first and also drama
suzuka has romance and comedy but no ecchi.
Any harem anime should have all those things. If you're looking for really funny harem with the most beautiful girls, Ken Akamatsu's works are your thing. His most famous work is Love Hina. He is the only manga-ka I know whose hobby is making the doujinshi of his own anime.
I agree with zero_enna Mahoromatic is what you want.

Its soooo hot out...
what are you eating? been eating a lot of ice cream.
re: escondido123
Goodness, this sounds incredibly delicious. :)
We're either eating out in restaurants that have a/c, or just having salads with feta and nuts. It's too hot to grill and my kitchen has no a/c, so I'm not enjoying cooking at the moment.
A bowl of watermelon. Though to be fair, I'm in my air-conditioned office so the heat isn't affecting me at the moment. Not looking forward to my subway ride/walk home, though. I gave my partner the choice of a tuna sandwich or a cheese sandwich for dinner tonight because I'm sure as hell not cooking.
re: LeoLioness
wow, LL...we Leos think alike for sure! ^o^ ...cold watermelon is my go-to after a work out or running errands here in SWFL all summer long...love it and I just can't find refreshment quite like it on such steamy days, for us they'll last into Sept. at least.
We have central air, so it's not much of an issue, but it's too hot to grill so while usually my husband does most of the cooking during the summer, this summer we're having a lot of fried chicken and stir-fry. (Fried chicken just because I'm on a kick, and stir-fry because they're easy and fast.
re: chowser
Don't laugh, but years ago, I had a cookbook called "Manifold Destiny" with recipes were cooked on your car's exhaust manifold, double wrapped in foil. I never tried any of them (or the ones you cooked in the dishwasher), but I did get a kick out of reading the cookbook.
re: Isolda
A very close friend of mine wrote that book with a friend. In fact, there is a potato recipe that came from me. The book was just re-released in the past year.
re: escondido123
did they actually try those recipes? did they have a weird tasted (kinda like lighter fluid has an awful smell?). I wasn't sure if the book was a joke...
re: Chowrin
No, it was serious. Properly wrapped there would be no smell - the exhaust goes out the rear of the car, remember. The idea was that you put the package in the right spot under the hood when you start a road trip, and by the time you're ready to stop for lunch you have a hot meal all cooked and waiting for you.
Along similar lines there were some recipes kicking around (can't recall if it was a book or not) for cooking in the dishwasher. Sounds weird but if you think about it, after you run the dishwasher everything in it (including its own interior) is by definition clean enough to eat off of.
re: givemecarbs
How're you liking it so far?
re: inaplasticcup
givemecarbs makes an interesting point: shortly after my in-laws moved to central Florida from Delaware a few years ago, Pop said his total cholesterol dropped 28 points...he said it was too hot to eat heavy meals PLUS, yes, he was moving around much more. Seems a lot of people just don't have such voracious appetites when it's sweltering hot, even if you do have a/c.
We've been cleaning out leftovers from the freezer. Only need the microwave to heat them and leaves room (our freezer was full right to the top) for ice cream.
re: Cynamar
Yes, the cherry gives it away:)
re: Cynamar
That Cherry Garcia counts as a fruit serving in MY house, lol!
re: srsone
Same here. My diet hasn't changed much at all. Only changes are iced water, iced tea and lemonade.
My diet, as with many others here, really only changes based on the growing season, time management and nutritional needs. Thinking of going gazpacho heavy next month when tomatoes (finally!) come around.
Whenever it gets hot, I turn to this: http://www.flickr.com/photos/pkoceres...
The key for me is to get the noodles as cold as possible. I chill the noodles in ice water, and freeze the bowl. A little extra crushed ice gets mixed in at service. After I polish it off I reach for some watermelon. Nothing's better in the summer!
I have been keeping an enormous bowl of iced melons and pineapple around and we are going through it by the bowlful, hourly.
I go from an air conditioned house, to an air conditioned car (in the garage--no sun), to an air conditioned office (with a parking garage--no sun). But it's all in the mind, watching the relentless coverage of our 5th heat wave already this year and temps in triple digits. So it's been lots of pineapple, melons, cold cucumber salads and sandwiches. But of course, I will cook corn on the cob.
I am still eating hot and hearty soups. We live in the Pacific NW, where according to recent calculations, we have had precisely 78 minutes of summer this year, as defined by temps over 80 degrees. I have lived here my entire life, suffered many awful summers including last which was probably in my top 3 coldest/most un-summerlike. This summer is making all those others look absolutely balmy.
I am seriously envious of you CH'ers who have to eat ice cream and cold foods to stay nourished this summer.
re: jlhinwa
I generally hate your climate (my parents and two of my brothers live in Seattle, and we go there every August), but right now, I'm envious. Here in New England, many, many places do not have central A/C, including my house, and it's miserable to cook.
I know there are hotter places (we lived in Texas for three years), but those places typically have A/C everywhere, so you can always escape it.
re: Isolda
With family members living here, you do know what I'm talking about then. I am sure you have heard about our particularly wretched summer. I am guessing that the year in review will show higher than normal rates of depression, domestic violence, suicide and more.
While I might fantasize right now about some nice East Texan humidity and heat or some AZ sun-scorched summer days, in reality I would not do well with that kind of weather. You are right though, at least in most of those places, the homes have a/c. I cannot imagine cooking in a hot, humid kitchen. That is pretty miserable. And who wants to worry about sweat dripping into their food??? :-)
re: Isolda
My sympathies, Isolda---you are dead on the money---went to school in New England, hotter than hell, no AC. I lived on ice cream, also cereal with cold milk and blueberries.
re: jlhinwa
This is us as well. It's rainy, cold, and gray most days. We haven't even hit 78 except for a few long forgotten days in April. I'm sitting here in full length sweats contemplating a pot of beans or something else soul warming.
re: inaplasticcup
Where is that? What country?
re: EWSflash
I now live in coastal North San Diego County, CA. Was living in Temecula for a very long, dry, uninteresting and threatening to get extremely hot 6 months. :P
Biscuits and Pineapple.
A little southern-tropical fusion ;)
Excuse my spastic random cravings :P
Sparkling water with ice and half a lime's worth of juice. Pellegrino, Gerolsteiner and Appolinaris are usually my waters of choice, but I have been drinking a ton of Jarritos Mineragua due to the fact that it is $0.99 for a 1.5 liter bottle at the market down the street, and it is quite good, all things considered.
I plan on eating crackers with fresh salt-and-peppered tomato for dinner, and possibly some carrots and dill dip. If I'm still hungry, I'll finish it off with a piece of ricotta cake and peaches.
Ugh, it's positively steamy out. Walking home from the subway and stepping into a sauna-reminiscent apartment resulted in me drinking a cold bottle of beer while sitting in bed (only room with an AC) for dinner.
We have central air, but the combo of an old house, an old a/c unit, the heat and humidity, means that even with the thermostat at 76 and the unit running nonstop, it's well above 80 inside the house. Our a/c man says it's the best this old a unit can do, when the feels like is 113 or 115. I don't know if he's blowing smoke or what...but anyway, we're eating:
precooked chicken strips from TJ's in salads or on rice (hot or room temp) from the rice cooker with raw veggies in a sort of unfried rice, with kizami nori, sesame seeds, and sometimes hot pepper paste to vary the flavor, or topped with spicy sesame sauce and cukes from the garden, or with cold noodles if I dare boil water
cold soups from fruit to gazpacho to ajo blanco
agua fresca of all varieties
fruit popsicles (homemade from David Lebovitz' Perfect Scoop recipes)
grilled steak and potato salad (again, if I dare boil water, I cook a few pounds and make a large batch, which we eat over salad greens with cukes and an Asian style dressing with the leftovers for lunch the next day)
beer can chicken
lots of crackers and veggies with various dips like baba ganouj (cook the eggplant on the grill after the protein comes off) or hummus we make in the food processor
It's so hot out that my appetite has been affected, and I have to make myself eat during the day. I think if had my druthers, I'd be eating mostly fruit, to be honest. It sits best for some reason, but then I start to feel the lack of protein. So, I've also made omelets and chilled them, Japanese style. Surprisingly good on top of room temperature oatmeal or rice with scallions and sesame seeds for breakfast.
re: amyzan
you need a dehumidifier. my house is at about 90, and it's less hot than yours. heat index rocks
for dinner tonight--fruit smoothie (yogurt from farmers market, oj, and frozen peaches in the blender-mmmm) and a slice of toast with pb. now i'm ready for a few spashes of vodka over ice...
re: jeanmarieok
Try adding some fresh tomato chunks to that. Goes really well. I am recently having gluten(I think) problems, and can't eat it anymore - gives me a bellyache! So eat some of my former summer favorites for me!! I mourn the loss of my pasta tuna salads.
Seasonal stuff- cherries, nectarines and peaches, apricots, grapes, lettuces and cucumbers, and this morning at work I had creamed chipped beef on a toasted english muffin, then went back to the office and ate a good-sized piece of flank steak, a bunch of romaine in a bag, and a dozen homegrown cherry tomatoes. And some peach Activia. It was one of those heavy hungry days, but at least I skipped lunch. BTW- the steak was room temp, maybe a little colder. Tonight, triscuits with Jarlsberg and a big shot of tequila with peach slices in it.
Ah, summer.
Gazpacho. I make a low-carb version by Cuisinarting 4 tomatoes, 1 onion, 1 green pepper, and 1 cucumber, adding this to a 46-oz can of tomato juice, and seasoning with salt, garlic powder, cumin, vinegar, and olive oil. Keeps a week in the refrigerator. Best taken ice cold.
Fresh mango, pineapple, watermelon and lichis. Homemade ginger ale. Iced passionfruit green tea. Cold noodles. Homemade mango popsicles. Iced barley tea. 7-day coleslaw, potato salad, gazpacho.
Mind you, the hot weather here lasts about 5 months, so I just bite the bullet, cook, and close the kitchen off from the rest of the apartment.
I have AC, but everyone needs to go out sometimes!
Tonight I'm making Vietnamese spring rolls. I've been eating a lot of peel and eat shrimp, meat from rotisserie chickens, and sorbet.
Drinking lots of ice water with a slice of lime.
Greek salads, fruit smoothies, watermelon, and lots of fish.
It was around 102 over here in Greece today!
It's too hot to cook inside, and almost too hot to go outside at all (35C/95F and very humid yesterday, not fun - I know that's nothing much to some, but in a place where we see -40 at times, it's like moving from Mars to Venus).
We have a weekly organic basket. They keep getting bigger by the week, and there's always plenty of stuff in there that I don't care for in raw form.
So, last weekend was BBQ borscht time. Big old Le Creuset right on the grill, loaded with veggies from the basket. And it's happening again tonight, no matter how hot it gets today.
The only other option is to have the fanciest compost in town.
I'm sooo envious of those for whom this summer is all ice cream and barbeques.
Here, it's wet and cold - we've had the heating on a couple of nights. Weather forecast for tomorrow - cloudy, with maximum temperature at 19. A nice warming stew is called for. I dread what it'll be like in winter.
re: Harters
I so feel you pain, and I totally relate. I am sitting at my desk with a space heater blowing on my legs and I am wearing a heavy sweater. I will be eating hot tomato soup for lunch shortly. I love summer foods, love cold drinks, ice cream, salads, etc. and it has just been too cold to get excited about eating any of that.
re: Harters
Now 5 days into our 5th heat wave of the summer with current temp of 102 (F) and with "feel like" temp of 120 (thanks to the oppressive humidity), I actually envy you right now. What I'd give for a nice cold rain--oh yeah, we haven't had any rain in a month either :(
re: gaffk
I know, I know...the grass is always greener. Honestly, it isn't the temps that bother me so much as the day-after-day gray skies and threat of rain. People need to see the sunshine!
It actually did warm up a bit today and to celebrate, dinner was cold chicken breast served with a lovely slaw. Tomorrow I am hitting our farmer's market and praying for some weather suitable for eating fresh fruit outdoors.
I live in a climate that doesn't get hot, but I still make a lot of gazpacho during the summer when the veges are at their best.
Also cantaloupe with prosciutto wrapped around it
figs dipped in cream cheese
strawberry's dipped in sour cream with brown sugar
cold cuts wrapped around cream cheese and asparagus
We're in the middle of a heat wave here in the Boston area. At 2'46 PM EST it was 100F going up to and probably beyond 102F. Absolutely No sea breeze.
Last night I made a tossed salad with a variety of vegetables with a red wine vinegar/ Dijon dressing, topped with a serving of canned tuna in EVOO - drained.
Tonight it's going to be a cold pasta salad with zucchini and summer squash, heart of romaine, olives, sliced vidalia, tomato with a vinegar dressing - not mayo. Plus a fruit salad with diced pineapple, mango and farm fresh blueberries with the zest and juice of a lime then drizzled with a bit of honey.
Yesterday we broke records w a temp of 49°C w the humidity and today isn't much better. So, a very casual meal is on the menu tonight here at casa bc. Taking inspiration from England & Spain we're having:
Melton Mowbray pie, pickled beets, an assortment of cheese, boiled eggs, radishes, tomatoes, sweet pickles and chutney. The fruit has been marinating all day for a lovely pitcher of sangria to wash it all down.
We plan to enjoy this on the deck, watching the boats go by and being so grateful for the warmth of summer because before we know it, it'll be snowing again!!
Hot here too in Western Ma. We have grain salads with the grains cooked in the rice cooker or based on bulgur, which soaks instead of cooking with whatever produce is in the garden. and lots of cold fruit. and frozen grapes.
re: BobB
My go-to cool down soup is: raw tomatoes, sweet red pepper and basil (plus a little garlic, salt, pepper and really good olive oil) puree, I also like Bulgarian tarator, a cold soup of yogurt, cucumber, mint or dill and finely chopped walnuts. I recently served a previously frozen carrot, ginger and parsnip puree cold. It was as good or better than it was hot. I am also experimenting with making popsicles from pureed berries, with or without yogurt.
Ice cream, sandwiches, cooking less, but every few days I feel the urge so I make quick stuff on a griddle like bulgogi and vegetables on rice. Rice cookers are great.
Mostly I've been not planning and eating the same while cursing the heat. It seems to help to keep the pot on the burners while they're hot.I try to scoop the food out and replace it with water, so that the extra heat dissipates slowly. A hot, uncovered burner is bad news. I'm jealous of people with gas stoves who don't have this problem. If I were a better planner, I'd use the crock pot or the microwave.
We have central air, but with the heat wave here in SW Ohio, coupled with the fact that my kitchen faces west (note to others -- and self -- never, ever, ever, ever do this if you have have hot summers), i've been keeping cooking to a minimum -- stuff I can do on the stovetop or microwave or have cold. Late one evening I roasted some chicken, then cut the meat up and threw in the fridge. Next day I cut up lettuce, tomatoes, avocado, green onions, and warmed the chicken a little in the microwave and seasoned with lime juice. Served everything at room temperature with flour tortillas and cheese and salsa and sour cream.
I've been living on salads, since I'm reluctant to even stand near boiling water to cook pasta, though I force myself once a week or so. It helps that it's the height of produce season, so lots of excellent veggies at the farm stands.
Caprese salad, with a little prosciutto
Sliced cabbage and cucumbers, roast beef from the deli, fish sauce/lime juice/hot pepper dressing
Corn & bean salad, sometimes with tomato or green onions, cuminy vinaigrette dressing
Cauliflower salad
Shrimp and Mango
Potato, green beans, tuna, olives
re: patricium
We've been eating lots of tomatoes and melons from the Farmer's Market. Even with AC, the heat is oppressive.
re: patricium
With some homegrown tomatoes I hope to obtain at a Farmers' Market tomorrow, I hope to make Caprese salad. Love it.
re: patricium
could you please tell me how to =make that thai beef salad? the exact proportions of the fish sauce etc... sounds amazing.
We ate a honeydew melon today. Mr. Sueatmo and I had it for 2 meals. I chose a stuffed eggplant recipe to try tonight that used mostly microwave cooking, and I cooked Mr. Sueatmo's rice in a rice cooker.I quickly seared some Ahi tuna on the stovetop grill. I could not face lengthy stovetop or conventional oven cooking today. We hope for a break in the weather tomorrow.

10 Things He Wishes You Wouldnt Take So Seriously
For him they're NBD, so don't stress.
By Anna Davies
You're right to be a little concerned—Internet infidelity is a rising trend. And expert opinions on how to deal with it are mixed. Some advise couples to share passwords for social media accounts, while others say that's excessive. But when it comes down to it, too much fixation on each other's online habits may mean it's time for both of you to reassess your tech time. For example, the real issue may not be that a blast from the past showed up in his newsfeed, but that you're spending hours in your individual worlds, which is cutting into your together time. Instead of demanding your husband unfriend his ex, plan a tech time-out during which you can focus on new ways to connect with each other.

Rated 5 out of 5 by NelNance from Good stuffed animal bin I have had this piece for several months. It is in our playroom and it holds our stuffed animals. It isn't as sturdy as wood or plastic bin would be, but our kids rough house a lot in the play room so we liked that this piece was soft. It has worked great so far. No complaints.

Rated 5 out of 5 by katie0808 from Easy Sorting! This bin is the perfect size for our baby's room - it fits under some little bookshelves while still being easy to access, she can't hurt herself on it, and it keeps all of her little toys and activities so nicely organized! Also it was incredibly easy to assemble :)

Rated 5 out of 5 by mom3my from So many uses around the house! We have so many of these in our house. We have 2 for the kids dirty clothes, which I made tags attached with clothespins that show the kids which spot for which colors. It makes doing laundry so so easy! We have one for kids shoes by the front door, where each kid gets their own compartment. We have one that matches our family room for toy control in there. We have one we use to sort clean clothes to bring them to the kids room. Love that they come in so many colors.

Rated 5 out of 5 by DebraL from Smart, Sturdy--Yet, also Soft, and Right-Sized Love this amazing organizer and storage piece... it's perfect for a ton of different uses... loose toys, stuffed animals, clothing, you name it... and, it's soft and safe for kids, unlike lots of other boxes, baskets, or bins that may have lids or sharp corners. A little secret? Get one for yourself, too, for easy storage in colors that pop or harmonize with another room of your home. I use mine for storing things I don't use every day, but like to look at often enough that boxes or bins would be less perfect. Thanks, Land of Nod, for another great product!

Rated 5 out of 5 by carriee from Looks great and is durable! I 2 of these about a month ago for my daughter's play area, which is right when you walk in the front door. My goal was to make it kid friendly and stylish at the same time! These are perfect! The are adorable! And I love them b/c they are not like the typical toy box where everything is on top of everything. Since they have dividers you can actually almost all the toys that are in the basket! Love it! They are very durable as well! And I love that they come in lots of colors!!!

Rated 5 out of 5 by rdhd2001 from LOVE THIS BIN This is in our toy room in vibrant green. It amazes me how much junk this bin can hold! you would never think so many stuffed animals could fit in one space. Works great, and as our baby gets older, i'm sure it will end up being a great divider between the kids stuff, to help avoid fighting.

Rated 5 out of 5 by MonB from Nice design, space saver! I bought the first mega sorter and while it served it's purpose, this new design is SO MUCH better. Modern looking and is the perfect place for us to store our son's toys when he's not playing with them. He loves grabbing his little treasures from his sorter. Highly recommend if you want something quick and simple to store toys.

Rated 5 out of 5 by Jenice from LARGE, but perfect I didn't realize how large this sorter was, but when I received it I was pleasantly surprised! It's perfect for sorting laundry. However, I purchased this for storing diapers and burp clothes so it's a little large for my purpose. I'm keeping it for laundry! Love it! and it's very sturdy with rods you place into the four corners. Then you flip down the fabric so you can't see them. IF you need to store the sorter, you can easily take out the four rods to make it flat for storage. Great item, great quality especially for the price.

Its not the most beautiful thing in the world but it still looks nice in my son's room and holds tons of things. I was looking for a big storage bin and this is it. Easy to set up, if you can even call it that (insert a couple metal rods, fold over the material) and sturdy.

Burn Notice Series Finale Review: The Final Missionby Jim Garner at . Comments
After more than 100 episodes, Michael Westen completed his final mission.
Bringing down James Kendrick, and saving Fiona from Sonya in the process, resulted in a "Reckoning" for Michael, and in turn he left the CIA, realizing that he no longer wanted to go back to being a spy.
While I admit I still want more Burn Notice, I can say that this ending was so full of awesomeness I wish I could give it more than a 5 star rating.
How incredible was Madeline's sacrifice? Between her words and Michael's tears, I couldn't stop crying. I had heard that a major cast member was going to die in the finale, but I honestly didn't expect it to be a self-sacrifice scenario. Well played Mr. Nix, well played indeed.
Of course, as I guessed last week, Michael prevented Sonya from shooting Fiona by shooting her first. I feel a little bad for Sonya; she either wouldn't see or couldn't see how important Fiona was to Michael. Had she realized that she was the key to Michael's loyalties, things might have gone differently.
Did anyone else catch the nod to the pilot (and the opening) with Fiona working in "Shall we shoot them?" There was also Sam's now famous "You know spies, bunch of bitchy little girls," and of course the hour closed with the line that has opened every episode, "My name is Michael Westen, I used to be a spy..."
I will have to go back and see if Madeline's or Jesse's opening credit dialog was worked in, but even if not, those three are a great trifecta of winning for long time fans.
I'm guessing that Fiona, Michael, and Charlie ended up back in Ireland, while there were no signs that I saw, the haunting music that was playing seemed like a good indicator. I hope that Michael and Fiona are able to raise Charlie and stay out of trouble. May not happen, but it's a nice dream.
Back in Miami you had Sam and Jesse, names cleared by the CIA, getting ready to have Mojitos and possibly take on a case. Or as most fans would like to call it – SPINOFF!
There have been some rumors about a Sam/Jesse spinoff and this reviewer would love it! They could add in a few new characters to help round out the team and you would have me glued to USA for the next 7 seasons!
In the end, we have to say goodbye and what better way to do it, than with a personal message:
Mr. Nix, thank you for 7 wonderful seasons with Michael, Fiona, Madeline, and the gang. You will never know how much this show has meant to me, being one of the last things I shared with my mom before her passing. It was wonderful to get to speak to you and the cast over the years; you have made a fan for life. - Jim
If you are inspired, please feel free to add your own message below. To all the fans who have stopped by, it has been an honor to review this show, here is hoping we are all back talking about Jesse and Sam in the near future!
Jim G. is a TV Fanatic Staff Writer. Follow him on Twitter.Tags: Burn Notice, Reviews
This is by far one of the best TV series endings in history !!!
They came full circle and at the end there was peace... Loving and letting go of Burn Notice is going to leave an emptiness hard to fill. Thanks to the cast for 7 wonderful years. We hope to see you soon in another series or a movie. Good luck to each an every one of you :)
Perfect, just Perfect.
Perfect ending to a great series. This is how finales need to be done. I was in tears during Maddie's call with Michael.
I didn't catch Maddie's line but Jesse's was in the scene with Michael in the car. Michael asks Jesse to watch Maddie & Charlie and Jesse says "that's how we do it."
" This is for my Boys" And with those words Madeline Weston had me crying and clapping at the same time. Sharon Gless was beyond awesome. Jesse crying as he shielded little Charlie was heart breaking. The tag lines thrown in from early on? Perfection. I was sympathetic for James right up until he told his mean to kill Madeline and Charlie!!! Then I saw him as the the monster he really had been all along. All I can say is if you are going to end a series this is the benchmark. It was Perfection! Thank you Burn Notice!!!!!

A village in Spain is cleaning up after the world's biggest food fight.
The Tomatina Festival began back in 1945 when a fight broke out among a carnival crowd.
Now tourists come from all over the world to take part in the annual tomato war.
This year, 30,000 people threw more than 240,000 pounds of tomatoes.
The town says the boost in tourism is worth the massive mess.

"The old age believed in magic, this age believes in science, but we are on the precipice of a third age, a fusion of everything that's come before." - Jerrod Woolf
The Third Age is a psychedelic remix of classic mythology, telling the story of ordinary people caught up in an eternal war between gods waged on the streets of New York City.
It is made by the creators of the documentary Grant Morrison: Talking to Gods.
New episodes are released weekly starting November 17th.

In that filing, Digital Evoy claimed Google "overstepped the bounds of a contract to use Digital's IP Intelligence" when it broadened the use of the technology to the Google AdSense product. The judge said; "Digital is not entitled to equitable relief on its claim for misappropriation of trade secrets, absent a showing of Google's willful misconduct."

Paperback - Thoughts in Solitude Paperback - Thoughts in Solitude (Image Books, No. D247) Hardcover - Thoughts in Solitude Similar Items: New Seeds of Contemplation Contemplative Prayer (Image Classics) The Seven Storey Mountain Life and Holiness (Image Classics) No Man Is an Island Editorial Reviews: SynopsisIn thirty-seven concise and beautifully written chapters, Thomas Merton explores the meaning of interior solitude and its necessary role in bringing every life to joyous fruition. "What is said here about solitude is not just a recipe for hermits," he writes in the preface, "it has a bearing on the whole future of man and his world." Amazon.com ReviewThe renowned Trappist monk Thomas Merton wrote Thoughts in Solitude in 1953 and 1954, when his superiors allowed him extended periods of seclusion and meditation. This elegant gift book, with clean, spare type and graphics, does justice to a 20th-classic (this is its 25th printing). What has made this book such an enduring and popular work is that it recognizes how important solitude is to our morality, integrity, and ability to love. One does not have to be a monk to find solitude, notes Merton; solitude can be found in the act of contemplation and silent reflection in everyday life. Also, this is not a pious book that assumes that a relationship with the divine can be obtained only by denying our humanity and striving for saintliness. Instead, Merton asserts that connection with God can most easily be made through "respect for temperament, character, and emotion and for everything that makes us human." --Gail Hudson CERTAIN CONTENT THAT APPEARS ON THIS SITE COMES FROM AMAZON SERVICES LLC.

I tried to use ConfigurationManager for the first time so thats what I did:
1.) created a new Project (TestProject) 2.) rightclick on TestProject -> Add -> New Item -> Application Configuration File (Name: Conf.config) 3.) I edited the file so its looks like this:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?>
<add key="key1" value="output1"/>
<add key="key2" value="output2"/>
<add key="key3" value="output3"/>
Now If I try to read the config my code is telling me that its empty :/
NameValueCollection appSettings = ConfigurationManager.AppSettings;
if (appSettings.Count == 0) //always true
Console.WriteLine("something is wrong");
Even if I try
ConfigurationManager.AppSettings["key1"] I dont get any output. Hm what am I doing wrong?

I was surprised not to get a hit when I searched this!
For those of you that do cold crash, are there any styles that you wouldnt? Are there beers that wouldnt benefit from cold crashing? Maybe a yeast intensive beer like a hefe?
I would think that most weizen styles wouldn't, and perhaps some beligian styles.
Was thinking along those lines too. I have a Saison that I am not sure about crashing. My first one
I like my Belgian and wheat beers hazy, so I don't cold crash those. I have a Saison that pours clear after the bottles have been sitting in the fridge for some time. It just doesn't look right to me, so I swirl that last bit of beer in the bottle and pour it out with the yeast. Stouts I don't care to cold crash either. They're dark enough and have so much malt character, I don't find it is worth the effort.
I figure everything is cold crashed when I put it in my keezer, so I see no problem cold-crashing it before I move it from primary to keg. And for a hefe, even after a day or two of cold-crashing, there's still plenty of yeast and protein in suspension.
However, the styles that most of you mention for not cold-crashing, I choose not to use gelatin for those.
Good point about no gelatin. I don't use Irish moss for these styles and I sometime no-chill them once the boil is over. I let them cool to pitching temperatures on their own. I use a hop bag so I can pull the hops out after the boil, so they don't keep bittering and flavoring while the wort cools.
I do not bother cold crashing if I am making a fruit beer or adding oak and the beer will sit in secondary for a while. I figure the extra time aging off of the trub will take care of it for me.
"Stupid Should Hurt"
From reading "Brew Like a Monk" by Stan Hieronymus I learned that all of the Trappist breweries lager their beers for extended periods of time for 3-6 weeks @ anywhere between 31F-50F. I was definitely surprised by this but I guess it helps with stability maybe? He never explains that in the book.
I wouldn't bother with a stout, or anything too dark to tell if it's cloudy or not.
