text: SAFETY POLICY PROCEDURES AND ARRANGEMENTS PERSONAL PROTECTIVE EQUIPMENT - (PPE) COMPANY GOOD PRACTICE GUIDE FOR SITE BASED WORKS INTRODUCTION Every year, in the construction industry, workers are killed and many others injured as a result of head injuries. If you wear a safety helmet your chances of being seriously hurt are greatly reduced. Wearing one could save your life. Personal protective equipment (PPE) is always the last line of defence. Wherever possible, other measures should first be taken to reduce or control the risk, eg: Provide brick guards and toe boards to stop objects falling from the scaffold; Keep scaffolds free of loose materials; Tie suspended loads securely. LEGALLY, WHEN SHOULD SAFETY HELMETS BE WORN? The Construction (Head Protection) Regulations 1989 require suitable head protection, normally safety helmets, to be provided and worn when there is a risk of injury. If you are IN CONTROL OF A SITE, eg as a principal contractor, you need to think about risks of head injury. There may be risks from falling materials or of knocking into things such as low scaffolds. Unless there is no foreseeable risk of injury you must provide your employees with safety helmets and decide when, where, and how they should be worn. Safety helmets must be worn in designated 'hard hat' areas. Only turban-wearing Sikhs are exempt from these requirements. The Construction (Head Protection) Regulations 1989 allow you to make rules governing when and where safety helmets should be worn. These rules apply to EVERYONE on site, and that includes visiting workpeople such as architects, delivery drivers and utility workers. These rules should be in writing and should be brought to the attention of all those who may be affected by them so that everyone knows when and where safety helmets are to be worn. DUTIES OF EMPLOYEES AND THE SELF-EMPLOYED EMPLOYEES must wear their safety helmets properly and follow the instructions of their employer or, in other cases, the rules made by the person in control of the site. They should take care of their helmets and not misuse them. Any defects or problems should be reported promptly. If safety helmets are not provided on site, the SELF- EMPLOYED must supply their own. They must wear them when there is a risk of head injury or when told to do so by someone in control. They also need to follow the rules made by the person in control of the site, and in addition, maintain and replace the safety helmet whenever necessary. SELECTION OF SUITABLE SAFETY HELMETS Helmets come in a variety of designs and it is important that the right type is provided for the work to be done. A properly fitting safety helmet should have the right shell size for the wearer and an easily adjustable headband, nape and chin strap. The range of size adjustments should be large enough to accommodate thermal liners used in cold weather. Safety helmets should be as comfortable as possible. Comfort is improved by the following: a flexible headband of adequate width and contoured both vertically and horizontally to fit the forehead; An absorbent sweatband that is easy to clean or replace; Textile cradle straps; Chin straps (when fitted) which: Fit around the ears; Are fitted with smooth, quick-release buckles which don't dig into the skin; Are made from non-irritant materials; Can be stowed on the helmet when not in use. COMPATIBILITY WITH THE WORK TO BE DONE Whenever possible, the safety helmet should not hinder the work being done. For example, an industrial safety helmet with little or no peak is useful for a surveyor taking measurements, or to allow unrestricted upward vision for a scaffold erector. Chin straps should be provided and used if a job involves work in windy conditions, especially at height, or repeated bending or constantly looking upwards. Helmets should be compatible with any other PPE, eg ear defenders or eye protectors. The design should allow them to be worn comfortably and remain effective. Check manufacturer's instructions regarding the compatibility of safety helmets with other types of PPE. Don't attempt to modify existing helmets to take these fittings as this may weaken them. MAINTENANCE CLAUSE G 012 PPE & SIGNS PAGE 1 OF 7 SAFETY POLICY PROCEDURES AND ARRANGEMENTS Safety helmets must be maintained in good condition. They should: (a) Be stored in a safe place, e.g. on a peg or in a cupboard on site; (b) Not be stored in direct sunlight or in excessively hot, humid conditions because long-term exposure can weaken the shell; (c) Be checked regularly for signs of damage or deterioration; (d) Have defective parts replaced (if the model allows this). Parts from one model cannot normally be interchanged with those from another; (e) Have the sweatband cleaned regularly or replaced. Before the safety helmet is issued to another person, it should be inspected to ensure it is serviceable and thoroughly cleaned in accordance with the manufacturer's instructions, e.g. using soap and water. The sweatband should always be cleaned or replaced. Damage to the shell Damage to the shell of a helmet can occur when: Objects fall onto it; It strikes against a fixed object; It is dropped or thrown. Certain chemicals can weaken the plastic of the shell leading to rapid deterioration in shock absorption or penetration resistance. Chemicals which should be avoided include aggressive cleaning agents or solvent-based adhesives and paints. Where names or other markings need to be applied using adhesives, advice should be sought from the helmet manufacturer. REPLACEMENT Normally, helmets should be replaced at intervals recommended by the manufacturer. They will also need replacing when the harness is damaged or if it is likely that the shock absorption or penetration resistance has deteriorated. For example, when the shell has received a severe impact, or if deep scratches occur (ie to a depth greater than 25% of the shell thickness) or if the shell has any visible cracks. SOME DOS AND DON'TS FOR SAFETY HELMETS DO Wear the helmet the right way round - it does not give proper protection when worn back to front. Safety comes before fashion. Keep a supply of helmets for visitors on site. These should be checked before each issue. Wear a chin strap if you have to bend forward or down, look up or work where it is windy. Wear the helmet so that the brim is level when the head is upright, ie don't wear it sloping up or down as this may significantly reduce the protection it can provide. DON'T Don't use your helmet as a handy basket - it is designed to fit on your head, not for mixing cement or carrying nails! Don't paint it or use solvents to stick labels to it, or scratch an identification mark onto it: the shell could weaken and rapidly deteriorate. The manufacturer can be asked to add a label. Don't store them in heat or direct sunlight, such as in the rear window of a car. Excessive heat and sunlight can quickly weaken the plastic. Don't modify, cut or drill your helmet. Don't share your helmet with anyone else on site.

August SEIBEL's children spelled it SEBILLE. There are not many in the states with that spelling. 122 pages of Civil War records showed how the changing came about.In order to draw her pension they left the spelling SEBILLE, because it caused so much confusion. Therefore her four boys spelled it SEIBEL. August' brother kept the spelling SEIBEL.

In search of an answer, Christopher McDougall sets off to find a tribe of the world's greatest distance runners and learn their secrets, and in the process shows us that everything we thought we knew about running is wrong.
Isolated by the most savage terrain in North America, the reclusive Tarahumara Indians of Mexico's deadly Copper Canyons are custodians of a lost art. For centuries they have practiced techniques that allow them to run hundreds of miles without rest and chase down anything from a deer to an Olympic marathoner while enjoying every mile of it. Their superhuman talent is matched by uncanny health and serenity, leaving the Tarahumara immune to the diseases and strife that plague modern existence.
With the help of Caballo Blanco, a mysterious loner who lives among the tribe, the author was able not only to uncover the secrets of the Tarahumara but also to find his own inner ultra-athlete, as he trained for the challenge of a lifetime: a 50-mile race through the heart of Tarahumara country pitting the tribe against an odd band of Americans, including a star ultramarathoner, a beautiful young surfer, and a barefoot wonder.
With a sharp wit and wild exuberance, McDougall takes us from the high-tech science labs at Harvard to the sun-baked valleys and freezing peaks across North America, where ever-growing numbers of ultrarunners are pushing their bodies to the limit, and, finally, to the climactic race in the Copper Canyons.
Born to Run is that rare book that will not only engage your mind but inspire your body when you realize that the secret to happiness is right at your feet, and that you, indeed all of us, were born to run.
©2009 Knopf; (P)2009 Random House
"Equal parts quest, physiology treatise, and running history....[McDougall] seeks to learn the secrets of the Tarahumara the old-fashioned way: He tracks them down....The climactic race reads like a sprint....It simply makes you want to run." (Outside Magazine)
"Hugely entertaining. . . . One of the most joyful and engaging books about running to appear for many years." (The Irish Times)
A terrific ride, recommended for any athlete." (Kirkus)
This book will make you want to run. It is truly addictive.
"Captivating and informative - a great listen"
I loved this audio book. I could not put my iPod down, and got so wound up in the subplots. There were times I felt a part of the story having struggled with running myself. I'm also more motivated to run and am scouring the net to learn more about the runners, foods, and other details from the book. I wish every book did this for me!
"Informative & Highly Entertaining"
This has been the most enjoyable non-fiction audio book I've listened to in a long time.
It's a fantastic adventure with wild real-life characters. I have a bunch of new heroes now, and have had fun putting together my own "epilogue" by reading the websites & blogs of the characters in the book.
Born To Run also ties in evolution, anthropology, history, and marketing with running. Made me very glad I'd switched to running in Vibrams.
"Fantastic Book"
I enjoyed this book but more importantly have found that it has drastically changed my desire and ability to run. At 6'5" 250 I thought that running would just never be my preferred activity. Like the author, I have had a variety of injuries every few months despite attempts to run on trails with the right shoe/orthotic and limiting my runs to every other day. Since changing to a ball of foot striker, I am running 1-2 hours daily without pain and have mixed in running barefoot, with Vibram 5 fingers, and Newton shoes and really enjoying the trails without pain. I can't wait to move on to some longer distances and was truly inspired by the book.
"Changed my perspective on running."
Full of information yet kept my attention the entire time. Great presentation.
"Can't stop thinking about the ramifications."
As someone who has love running since junior high, I found this to be one of the best books I've ever read. I've had tons of running injuries and cannot stop thinking about how this book explains almost all of them. I've already started putting into practice the lessons learned and the results are phenomenal. And, on top of it all, it was as intriguing of a read as any novel I've read recently.
"Surprisingly, I hated this book"
I am a runner, and I love history and non-fiction. So, I thought I would really enjoy this book. But I never warmed up to it and gave up before the second file. The story-telling was too over the top and I missed a likable character to anchor the story.
"The Long Tail of Running and Athletics"
This is just a plain good book for anyone interested in endurance athletics - the long tail of running and cycling. I have read all the running books, and they all seem to be about the author. While the author of this book plays a role, the book is more about running and challenging yourself to limits you never thought were possible. I was disappointed when I finished the book, and it will probably become the first book I ever listen to twice.
"Very Entertaining, Informative, Engrossing"
This book really made me want to go run. There is just enough clevery dialogue to keep the story alive and relevant but also a good deal of science to validate some interesting ideas as to why man evolved the way he did.
If you enjoy running even a little bit, this is really a great book. I highly recommend it.
"At first I thought this was fiction..."
I came across this as a recommended book by audible and coincidentally had also just received my first pair of Vibram five fingers shoes from a friend who took pity on my blistered feet from barefoot running. The book was an eye opener on my personal mission to eliminate shoes from my life and an inspiration to someone who once weight 260 lbs.
What surprised me the most was it WASN'T fiction. there are real people really doing these things from this book. most have real blogs and I was never bored throughout the book. this will be in my arsenal of reading in both audible and paper back as I move into the test of a lifetime and try to become an ultra runner.

3 pastas that can help you burn MORE fat
- Store bought fruits and vegetables are now loaded with pesticides, herbicides, and even genetically modified organisms (GMOs). These residual chemicals and modified foods can block the absorption of vitamins and minerals -- and have been linked to several diseases including cancer.
- Corn fed beef and pork has been shown to contain 9x the bad estrogen than natural pasture raised pork and grass fed beef. It also tends to be too high in omega 6 fats compared to its grass fed buddies.
- Most over the counter dairy are loaded with fillers, hidden chemicals, and poor quality protein. Cottage cheese and Greek yogurt are the only two exceptions to this rule, but watch for hidden sugars and preservatives.
- Store bought egg yolks can tend to be loaded with hormones passed along from the cage raised chickens.
- Roasted nuts are an "ok" source of friendly fat, but the roasting process basically destroys all the "good" fats.

We are close to town , but have a very quiet setting with wildlife all around , We are about ten minutes from downtown Ruidoso , 5 minutes to the " Links Golf Course" and about 15 minutes from the ski mountain road .

The Book of Ether contains the story of the Jaredites — a story that parallels the overall history told in the Book of Mormon. And, as I've observed here before, the story also is somewhat similar to that of the early Saints, who travel to a foreign land at the direction of the Lord, seeking a place where they may live in righteousness. Ether 1-6 tells the beginning of this story, including the revelations given to the Brother of Jared, his exemplary faith and the journey of his people to the promised land. While their home has descended into... Read more »

RICHMOND, Texas (AP) — Deputies say a woman accused of snatching a 9-year-old Houston-area boy allegedly had an affair with his father and was upset that the relationship ended.
The Fort Bend County Sheriff's Office on Wednesday announced the apparent motive for the abduction of Amsal Dhuka (AM'-sal DOO'-kuh).
Kismat Momin (moh-MEEN') of Sugar Land was charged with kidnapping after she surrendered Tuesday, hours after the boy was found unharmed. She's being held on $125,000 bond.
The 34-year-old Momin lives in the same apartment complex as the boy's family. Authorities say there's no evidence that Momin intended to harm the boy.
His father reported the disappearance Monday afternoon when Amsal was seen getting off a school bus but never arrived home. The child was found at a Muslim worship center about 10 miles away.

Bert LaMar, the founder of Iliac golf, tweeted out today that he played a round of golf with Lucas Glover yesterday and tweeted a photo. It was interesting that in the photo Lucas was wearing a North Face jacket, R11s driver and Adidas 360′s. Looks as though he made the switch from Nike to TMAG.

Sears Reviews
"Sears is a good place to build great salesmanship for future jobs in sales. "
- Comp & Benefits
- Work/Life Balance
- Senior Management
- Career Opportunities
I worked at SearsPros
One of the great reasons for working for Sears Holdings is gaining the experience as a sales person. I know a lot of other jobs look for applicants who have a little sales or customer service experience and Sears was definitely a great place to start and build that experience. The workplace was a very relaxed atmosphere but can become very competitive with other employees, since it is commission based pay. Management worked with students for scheduling them hours and worked around your school schedule. This is a great place to give you the first step, but definitely not for a career.Cons
I'd say the only issues were just dealing with other employees and their sneaky and shrewd tactics at stealing other associates' sales. Like I said, Sears is commission based pay so you basically have to sell or you get paid very little. If you don't sell enough, they actually take out of your paycheck, which is kind of irritating considering the fact that we only get maybe 1% commission off a sales item. maybe the highest percent commission on an item I believe was 8%, but that was for like a vacuum bag. It's a dog eat dog world in sales.Advice to ManagementAdvice
There is no advice that I would like to give to Senior Management.RecommendsNo opinion of CEO

He goes by Ash on Top Chef, but back in 2004, when he helped Katie Grebow open Café Chloe in San Diego, he was Ashley Fulk, sous-chef, pastry chef, and official kitchen Broadway star. Hed be singing a show tune or quoting Shakespeare, Grebow told us. He was always very theatrical. Fulk also created the cafs dessert menu, and many of his dishes like the crème brulee, the crème frache ice cream are still served at the restaurant. Hes well rounded, says Grebow. In addition to that, hes worked on a farm, so he knows a lot more about preparing vegetables. Most chefs focus on the meat or the seafood, but hes really respectful of produce. (According to his Facebook fan page, Fulks motto is If it grows together, it goes together.)
Grebow remembers Fulk as someone who helped maintain staff discipline a recollection that jibes with Riko Bartolome, who hired Fulk to work in his kitchen at the W Hotel in San Diego. He was a good liaison between cooks and myself. He was good with upper management and cooks, Barolome says. In the kitchen at Trestle on Tenth, Fulks current boss considers the chef a creative thinker. Hes definitely a freewheeler, chef-owner Ralf Kuettel says. He just figures it out as he goes along, and the dishes usually come out fantastic. Its a good trait to have.

A group of about 50 Wisconsin demonstrators has been singing protest songs inside the Madison Capitol every day at noon for almost two years.
Their target is Republican Gov. Scott Walker, who pushed a law stripping public employees of certain labor rights. The demonstrators have a songbook of 44 songs, many of them traditional songs that have had the lyrics changed to target Walker.
Lawrence Guyot, a civil rights leader who survived jailhouse beatings in the Deep South in the 1960s and went on to encourage generations to get involved, has died. He was 73.
Guyot had a history of heart problems and suffered from diabetes, and died at home in Mount Rainier, Md., his daughter Julie Guyot-Diangone said late Saturday. She said he died sometime Thursday night; other media reported he passed away Friday.
A clown suffered a fatal collapse in front of spectators at the Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade in New York City.
Sixty-seven-year-old Robert Blasetti went into cardiac arrest as he made balloon animals at Sixth Avenue and West 39th Street on Thursday. He was pronounced dead at a hospital.
A Maine judge has ruled in favor of the Orono school district and against the parents of a transgender child who was barred from using the girls' bathroom at school.
The district was sued in 2009 after a fifth-grader who identifies as a girl was denied access to the girls' bathroom at the elementary school. The family also claimed the school failed to stop other students from harassing the transgender student.
South Korean rapper PSY's "Gangnam Style" has become YouTube's most viewed video of all time.
YouTube says in a posting on its Trends blog that "Gangnam Style" had been viewed 805 million times as of Saturday afternoon, surpassing Justin Bieber's "Baby," which has had 803 million views.
The Human Rights Campaign, the nation's largest LGBT civil rights organization, released a national TV ad campaign celebrating marriage equality and featuring the voice of Academy Award winner Morgan Freeman.
The ad titled "Dawn of a New Day" began running on Nov. 25 and is available online at: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wdnxMFs8tTk.
New Yorkers who cherish Fire Island as an idyllic summertime getaway feared the worst when the 32-mile-long barrier island took a direct hit from Superstorm Sandy's powerful surge. The wall of water swamped nearly the entire island, destroyed or washed away about 200 homes and scraped sand dunes down to nothing.
Still, residents are counting their blessings.
The head of the U.N. drug watchdog agency is urging U.S. federal officials to challenge ballot measures in Colorado and Washington that decriminalized possession of small amounts of marijuana for adults 21 and over.
Raymond Yans says the approvals send "a wrong message to the rest of the nation and it sends a wrong message abroad."
Hundreds of gay rights activists marched through New Delhi on Nov. 25 to demand that they be allowed to lead lives of dignity in India's deeply conservative society.
Dozens of demonstrators carried a nearly 50-foot-long, rainbow-colored banner and waved placards demanding that the government extend the scope of anti-discrimination laws to schools, workplaces and public and private spaces.
Even before voters gave a thumbs-up to marriage equality in three states on Nov. 6 – and a thumbs-down to marriage discrimination in another – the National Organization for Marriage was experiencing a steep decline in donor support, according to an analysis by the Human Rights Campaign. NOM is the national anti-gay organization that spearheads ballot initiatives against LGBT civil rights.
NOM raised just $6.2 million in 2011, down from the $9.1 million it raised the previous year. Just two donors were responsible for funding 75 percent of the group's total 2011 tally, with each making contributions of approximately $2.4 million.
U.S. Rep. Scott DesJarlais has told a newspaper that his views about abortion have evolved after previously supporting his ex-wife's decisions to abort pregnancies during their marriage.
The Republican physician from Jasper who now opposes abortion also says he has no plans to resign over revelations about past relationships with patients.
Federal agents in New Hampshire have charged a Manchester lawyer with seven counts of child exploitation, including transporting a child for illegal sexual conduct.
A federal magistrate has ordered 43-year-old Lisa Biron held without bail until her trial, which is schedule to start Jan. 8.

The major cloud platforms defy a simple, side-by-side analysis. Each of the major IaaS public-cloud platforms offers their own unique strengths and functionality. Options for on-site private cloud are diverse as well, and must be designed and deployed while taking existing legacy architecture and infrastructure into account. Then the reality is that most enterprises are embarking on a hybrid cloud strategy and programs. In this Power Panel at 15th Cloud Expo (http://www.CloudComputingExpo.com...

The definition of IoT is not new, in fact it's been around for over a decade. What has changed is the public's awareness that the technology we use on a daily basis has caught up on the vision of an always on, always connected world. If you look into the details of what comprises the IoT, you'll see that it includes everything from cloud computing, Big Data analytics, "Things," Web communication, applications, network, storage, etc. It is essentially including everything connected online from ha...

Docker offers a new, lightweight approach to application portability. Applications are shipped using a common container format and managed with a high-level API. Their processes run within isolated namespaces that abstract the operating environment independently of the distribution, versions, network setup, and other details of this environment. This "containerization" has often been nicknamed "the new virtualization." But containers are more than lightweight virtual machines. Beyond their small...

The move in recent years to cloud computing services and architectures has added significant pace to the application development and deployment environment. When enterprise IT can spin up large computing instances in just minutes, developers can also design and deploy in small time frames that were unimaginable a few years ago. The consequent move toward lean, agile, and fast development leads to the need for the development and operations sides to work very closely together. Thus, DevOps become...

Use Your Slow Cooker to Make This Easy Creamed Kale
I like Kale. It's cheaper than Brussels Sprouts.
I like Kale. It's cheaper than Brussels Sprouts.
Present for my sister. Thanks!
I thought hipster charcuterie was charcuterie made from ground Yo La Tengo fans.
Great for a potluck... or an awesome picnic!
You guys asking for stats should probably taste the difference for yourself. Yes, ultimately, that is anecdotal evidence... but in this case you are the only n that matters.
Just so everyone knows I was half kidding about the "Buzzfeedification" of the Internet. Serious Eats is definitely not the biggest offender in this regards. Serious Eats always has something I read without attention grab headlines.
It's the Buzzfeedification of the Internet.
Can't wait for the foccacia recipe!
Max, I just want to say that even though there's a lot of negativity here, I enjoy this site and your work. You can defend this site in Kenji's absence. But as soon as he gets back to work, you are never allowed to defend this site's honor again (hey, that was sarcasm if that wasn't clear).
I am finally going to make your frozen yogurt! Oh, and I want to know... will using yogurt with pectin added affect the result? The only full fat yogurt I could find was Trader Joe's, and it has pectin.
I hear that the marionberry pancakes are great for brunch in Portland.
Finally. Our national crisis has ended.
My neighbor last year grew a ton of those tiny yellow pear-shaped tomatoes. He couldn't eat all of them, so he gave my family a bunch of them. And they were delcious!
That's a good point, Cereal Eater. Everyone likes pizza. Sometimes people just need to quit being picky. People should just state what they can't/won't eat. Chances are there will be an overlap: onions, mushrooms, pork products. There will still probably be plenty of toppings to make something that can please everyone.
This looks amazing. Pineapple is only 99 cents at my market this week. Probably will leave out aleppo and use some ground Japones peppers.
I can understand why you wouldn't want to use that as a unit of measure. Not everyone lives in the US. 1 stick of butter = 8 tablespoons, FYI.
I'll pass thanks. Too many bad memories of eating it as a kid.
It's an album by Belle and Sebastian, right? Isn't basically the liquid that you marinate your ceviche in?
Remember that dressing is going to separate. When that happens, the vinegar will be on bottom and the oil will be on top. Then the garlic will just be floating in vinegar and soy. Seems safe to me.
Do the candy "Buckeyes" really have anything to do with Ohio? Other than the fact that they resemble the nut of the state tree of Ohio. We have them in the Hoosier state too.
I love the candy despite being an IU grad. I have many fond memories of the candy but my favorite was watching a friend from Korea try it. He wasn't too used to American sweets and the time. His eyes bugged out when he tried them because of how sweet and rich it was. It was great.
I made cold brew once. It was fine but not great. You don't get all the flavors out of cold brew that you do with a hot brew.
Pizza is code for blue meth. Don't be so naive, Kate.
Sweet! They have these a few miles from school! Definitely picking a few up tomorrow or Monday.
Why are we comparing Joshua to Kenji? They have different approaches. This sounds really good, Joshua. I bet my mom would love this.
I cooked my beans in the oven once instead of on the stove top. They turned out beautifully. Maybe there should be some tests in the future on cooking methods and their impact on beans texture and appearance. My pressure cooker seems to do well too at create whole beans as long as I don't over-cook them. I go with dried for the cost factor.
I have a copy cat recipe for Chipotle's beans that calls for throwing the whole bay leaf into a blender with some other aromatics. I tend to run it through my spice grinder a couple of times because I don't trust my blender.
Ground bay leaf seems to be a common dish in many Indian spice blends.
So, I successfully made a couple of NY Style pizza per Kenji's recipe while I was visiting my parents. I wanted to try the Lahey no-knead since I am sadly without food processor 'cause I can't afford the size I want.
The dough seemed promising at first and was very pliable. However, it kept springing back like crazy when I tried to stretch it out. And it seemed a little sticky. After not fixing it upon adding some more flour, I gave up and made it into a calzone.
I've already seen the video with Kenji and have added more flour to the other three dough balls that are now chilling in the fridge. Any other ideas? My kitchen is super cold (62 degrees), could this be the issue? Dough seemed to pass windowpane test.

I have been looking at some cheap no preservative apple juices from the supermarket. How do additives such as citric acid, and sugars, And being from concentrate vs straight juice effect the final product?
Elfmaze - If you like the juice, your like the cider in my opinion.
Usually I buy 5 gallons of tree top or whatever is cheapest and add a few concentrates to them to bump up the apple flavor. It really depends on your taste and I am not saying it is as good as freshly pressed pulp that you made yourself. (Nothing seems to be as good, I think it is matter of the work invested into it).
In Primary: Belgium Chimay clones.
In Secondary: Braggot, pale ale, end of the world white.
Conditioning: Mead, Cider, braggot, Belgium Wheat.
On Tap: Clones, Chimay Blue, Red, Porter, malted cider.
Bottles: Far, far, too many to list.
well got the fresh press stuff coming from Vermont in a week or so here. but it is nice to have a year round supply. not to mention not 6 bux a gallon

Duart Cottage
Kyleakin, Isle of Skye
Getting 'over the sea to Skye' has never been easier, with the sweeping arc of the Skye bridge which is now, what's more, free of charge!
Where the ferry from the mainland used to dock, but now bypassed by that bridge (and refreshingly quiet and peaceful as a result), is the little village of Kyleakin. There, on the road which runs along the water's edge to the harbour is Duart Cottage, a trim, whitewashed, typical Highland house.
It stands in about a quarter acre of garden (with furniture) and inside, it has been beautifully restored to a very high standard.
There is a modern kitchen, cosy sitting room with multi-fuel stove (and an extensive video library for wet days), a separate dining room and upstairs, double, twin and (small) bunk bedrooms. The twin bedroom is accessed through a further sitting room where there is a double sofa bed for additional guests.
In addition to its quality, the cottage is full of character, from the cast iron fireplace in the sitting room to the original pine panelling in the dining room. The owners have carried this theme throughout the house, with much use of pine and natural wood in most of the rooms. The result is a most attractive house which seems to fold you into its welcoming embrace.
Duart is perfectly placed for maximum accessibility to this wonderful area. Kyleakin itself has a shop and 4 restaurants, while Kyle of Lochalsh (2 miles) across the Sound has a full range of shops, eating places, leisure centre, etc.
The picturesque village of Plockton on the mainland (where the television series 'Hamish Macbeth' was filmed) has superb restaurants and is within a 15 minute drive. For a special meal out, Lady Claire MacDonald's Kinloch Lodge is 10 miles away on the Armadale Road.
Walkers and climbers will scarcely know which way to turn! On Skye itself, the Cuillins beckon, while over on the mainland, the mountains of Wester Ross and Torridon are almost as close. Kyleakin now has its own marina, so sailing enthusiasts are also well catered for.
In the centre of the Sound is the Ring of Bright Water Visitor Centre on Eilean Ban, once the home of author and naturalist Gavin Maxwell and now a wildlife sanctuary with an emphasis on otters. There is another otter hide at Kylerhea, just down the coast, while further up the island you can hope to see sea eagles, dolphins and even, perhaps, a whale.
There is golf on Skye at Sconser (21 miles) and at Portree (33 miles) - the 'capital' of the island. Riding is also to be had there, or at Armadale (21 miles) to the south, where the ferry plies back and forth to Mallaig and where the Castle gardens are also worth a visit.
Please note: while we make every effort to be as accurate as possible, the actual position of the cottage indicated on the map above and the proximity of the amenities in the Local Info section cannot be guaranteed to be precise and should be used as a guide only.

There are two reasons why I'm writing this post. First, I've kept the secret of Dustin's 30th birthday gift a surprise for a couple of months now and doing so is eating me up inside. There's an ulcer with a bow and balloons growing in my stomach. I suck at keeping surprises I've planned, so in writing this post I sort of get to talk about it since my husband won't let me blow my cover (yeah, I've asked, borderline begged him to let me spill the beans).
The second reason is once it goes public, I will feel the immediate need to justify such a gift. Whether we are pals via the interweb or we know each other in "real life", if you're reading this you've likely followed our struggles over the past 11 months, in particular our financial struggles. This leads me to feel the need to explain the how and why behind such a gift.
And if you think that I'm being silly, then try to remember that not only have we struggled, we've received donations from family, friends and strangers to help dig us out of our medical bill hell. I never want to be looked at as the person who received help while somehow living the high life. (Believe me, we SO aren't, and not a dime from donations went towards this expenditure).
So why did I break two of my cardinal rules of finances (don't spend money you don't have, and only use credit cards for the most extreme emergencies)? This all goes back to Dustin's 29th birthday. On December 5, 2013 Dustin left work early to bring me to yet another doctor appointment. We were already on edge because we knew any day we would be admitted to the hospital to have our son. Even though I was on 90% bed rest, I wanted to give Dustin a fun and stress-free birthday by meeting up with some friends at the Big Thrill Factory (an arcade for adults) that Dustin had been wanting to try.
As Dustin was turning into our driveway some moron behind him tried to pass on the shoulder, then changed course, and Dustin had two choices – either get rear ended at 30mph or drive himself into the ditch. I was shutting down my work computer when the front door flew open with a flushed and furious Dustin, explaining that his car was ass up in the ditch…and that the driver glanced in Dustin's car, saw he was OK and then SPED OFF.
I ended up having to help shovel snow and push his car out of the way far enough so we could take my car to the doc. While we were gone Dustin's mom called Triple A to have his car towed. The doctor appointment didn't go well and I was sent to the hospital for observation. I was sick, swollen and had ever climbing blood pressure, so we decided to cancel his small but much needed birthday party.
We ended up at home around 9 or 10p.m., and 8 days later I was admitted for good, and 10 days later Ben was born.
And then the last 11 months happened. NICU. Surgery. PT. Helmet. Isolation. Working multiple jobs. And so on, and so on. It's been rough.
Which is why I wanted to give something to Dustin for his birthday that he really wanted, but assumed that given our situation would never happen. I listened to him when he talked, and think I planned a GREAT 30th birthday gift.
Here's where my "mistakes" came in. At the time I set this up, Dustin was working what would have been a third job doing web work for my part-time gig. I wanted SOMETHING of all our hard work to go toward more than medical bills and groceries. I felt – and still feel – that Dustin deserved it. I also "knew" that we would have a few thousand dollars coming in from this web project and we could find a way to spare $300 for this gift, so before we got paid, I bought the present.
And then, after Dustin did the work, the site was live, money was made, the invoice was due…the company backed out. Yeah, that one still stings.
So there you have it – a justification on how we came to be celebrating Dustin's birthday in the way which we will be celebrating. I promise to post details once the date and gift come to fruition. Should I have bought this gift? Logically probably not. But is a charge on our Visa that I regret? Not even a little, and that's coming from someone who hyperventilates daily about debt.
But Dustin, once again you have proved that you truly are my only exception. What I would never do for me I would do for you in a heartbeat. It's as if I love you or something. Funny how that works.

SAN JOSE, Calif. (AP) - Derek Meech scored a tiebreaking power-play goal early in the third period and the Detroit Red Wings rallied from an early two-goal deficit to beat the San Jose Sharks 4-2 Tuesday night.
Dan Cleary, Henrik Zetterberg, and Patrick Eaves also scored for the Red Wings, who are 3-0 against the Western Conference-leading
Sharks but have struggled against almost everyone else this season.
The Red Wings, who have won the Western Conference the past two
seasons, are fighting just to make the playoffs this year in a season hampered by injuries. Detroit is tied for seventh in the conference.
Joe Thornton scored a pair of goals for the Sharks, who have only two regulation losses in their past 12 games - both at home against Detroit.

In the course of my research of Viking Age woodcraft, I somewhat unexpectedly turned up information about a most delightful archaeological find: an entire hoard of children's toys, found at Market Harborough parish church, England. A charming stash of the everyday playthings of sixteenth or seventeenth century children, the hoard throws a rare spotlight on the material culture of children in the archaeological record....

Tube Talk: Human Target features many familiar faces
By Paula Hendrickson
Contributing Writer
When Fox previews its new series, Human Target, Jan. 17, you'll probably think the lead actor looks kind of familiar and wonder, "Where do I know this guy from?"
That's Mark Valley starring as the aptly-named Christopher Chance, a private security expert who takes on especially tough cases. (And if the character sounds familiar, that's because he's a DC Comics character.)
Chances (ahem) are that you've already seen Valley several times playing any number of roles. His most recent job was playing FBI Agent John Scott on Fringe, and he was a long-time regular on Boston Legal as straight-laced attorney Brad Chase. A lot of people remember him best from one of his first starring roles on the short-lived series Keen Eddie, where he played an American cop working in London; Sienna Miller played his unintentional roommate.
Despite seeing him in all those parts, every time I see Valley, I think of Days of Our Lives. He was one of two actors who played Jack Deveraux back in the mid-'90s during a period when the man most associated with the role, Matthew Ashford, had left the soap. You can't beat the way they introduced Valley: in the middle of an episode, Jack, then being portrayed by yet another actor, stepped into the shower. When Jack emerged again, he was played by Valley. Stuff like that can only happen on a soap.
Valley had the right blend of wit and charm to play Jack (something Ashford's other replacement lacked), and remained on the show a couple of years. Before long, he was popping up all over TV, and even in some films. He played the recurring role of Abby's unlikable ex-husband on ER before landing his own series, Keen Eddie.
(Honestly, I still don't know why Keen Eddie never took off. Great cast, fun scripts, shot on location in London—maybe the problem was that it started as a summer replacement series.)
"But I've never watched any of those shows," you say, "so why does he still look so familiar?" Perhaps you saw him guest star on CSI, Swingtown, Law & Order: SVU or The 4400. Or, maybe he just has one of those faces.
While the premise of Human Target sounds somewhat intriguing, I'll probably tune in more to see Valley in an action series. It looks like the role will blend everything he's good at—action, drama and comedy—making it an ideal mix for someone with Valley's varied background.
I really hope Human Target is worthy of its cast, which includes Chi McBride, who was delightfully gruff in Pushing Daisies, and former child star Jackie Earle Haley, who has stayed really busy since returning to acting with the 2006 film Little Children, which earned him an Oscar nomination. We'll know soon enough. Human Target previews Jan. 17 at 7 p.m., and premieres Jan. 20 on Fox at 8 p.m. (Immediately after American Idol.)
