Button is in Pressed state when it is clicked or pressed.
On the "Normal state" tab you can define the button properties when it is in normal state if the menu type is "2-state", "3-state" or "3-state toggle". If the menu type is "1-state" then animated web buttons will always be displayed as in Normal state.
On the "Hot state" tab you can define the button properties when it is in hot and pressed states. Note, that properties changes on this tab will not affect the button if the menu is of "1-state" type.

Taylor Swift And Selena Gomez Are Clearly Great BFFs
Posted on Sun Nov 23rd, 2014 1:05pm PDT By X17 Staff The 1975 at The Palladium. @selenagomez @elliegoulding A photo posted by Taylor Swift (@taylorswift) on Nov 11, 2014 at 12:49am PST These two get along perfectly! The best way to get over an ex is by hanging with your closest friends and that's exactly what Selena Gomez did on Friday night when she linked up with Taylor Swift to check out The 1975 concert at The Hollywood Palladium. The duo, who were reportedly at odds for a myriad of reasons, showed no signs of a rift as they looked extremely jovial in some snapshots Swift posted to her Instagram account with the caption, "The 1975 at The Palladium. @selenagomez @elliegoulding." Clearly these two were meant for each other as they seem to remain tight through thick or thin (or embellished reports). Everyone needs a go to pal!

I'm thankful our country is still a refuge and the land of opportunity
When I was 7 years old, my family and I landed at JFK Airport in New York City with $90 in our pocket, a few suitcases stuffed with what little we could carry and no idea of what to expect next. We came here because we were fleeing a totalitarian regime, because generations of our family had been oppressed simply for existing and because the United States was a beacon for our hopes and aspirations, as it has been for millions of others around the globe. ADVERTISEMENT ADVERTISEMENT The people literally dying to come here now do not believe that our best days are behind us.

Lost kitten from New Mexico turns up in duffel bag in Maine
ALBUQUERQUE N.M. (Reuters) – An Albuquerque cat owner can sleep easier now that the kitten that went missing last month will be home for the holidays, despite a mysterious 2,300-mile side trip to Maine. Patsy Murphy, who runs an animal refuge center in Westbrook, Maine, said the kitten, named Spice, was brought to her shelter on Nov. 11 by a man who found the feline in a duffel bag while unloading furniture at a local Catholic charity. "This is a very odd story, we wish she could tell us what happened," Murphy said of the kitten, which was found inside the bag with food and kitty litter. Murphy said Maine resident Bob Watterson brought the kitten home on Nov. 5, and cared for it for six days before he turned it over to the animal refuge, which found a microchip in the cat that could identify it. Murphy was shocked when the cat was traced …November 21, 2014 8:31 pm

As I'm sure you've seen from my Tweets and Instagram photos, I spent two days in Stockholm this week. We were there to celebrate REN's 15th Anniversary (more on that in a minute) and our little UK group was hosted by ASOS. More well known for the fashion side of things I think people forget about ASOS' beauty section that offers products like REN as well as many others. Ahead of the trip I planned for cold weather and this high neck swing dress really kept me cosy. I layered it over leggings, added some boots and threw my coat on top. I really like the fit, the tight three quarter length arms are very flattering.
So REN is 15 years old! The event was hosted in Stockholm not because it's where their from (I just assumed it was!) but because the clean brand ethos really ties in with the Swedish way. Did you know that REN actually means 'clean' in Swedish? Amazing. As well as celebrating their birthday they also have a new product launching next year that I personally think might get added to their bestseller list. It's their Instant Firming Beauty Shot which is like a thick serum that instantly tightens the skin leaving it soft and plump. I can't wait to try it out properly but at the moment the back of my left hand is looking great!
You may have seen in my last vlog that Rich and I went to a restaurant called Food For Friends in Brighton last weekend. I've been there before around 8 years ago for my sister's hen night. It's a vegetarian restaurant and even though neither of us are vegetarian we still really enjoyed it. Despite my chilli incident, the food was great and the atmosphere was nice. I wouldn't say it was the BEST meal I've had but if you're looking for somewhere nice to go for dinner in Brighton, it would be up there on my list of places I've tried and enjoyed.
Have a great weekend!

Cooking from scratch is sometimes simple, sometimes complicated or requires a mixture of experience and knowing what flavors work best with the dish. The southern, down-home recipes on this blog are designed for the new cook as well as the very experienced. All it takes is a little time in understanding the ingredients and steps.
I offer you recipes that I prepare often or recipes that are family traditions. I will tell you in advance if it is one that requires a bit of thought as I sometimes do not measure exact ingredients. These you can experiment with easily and none of them are complicated. That's the best part of scratch cooking, you can claim the dish as your own.
Note to new cooks: from scratch means you start with basic ingredients where nothing is pre-mixed and you have to measure the quantities.
Of course, there are recipes from others that have proven just too good to not share. Like the Best Breadmachine White Bread. It would be wrong to keep that to myself. Then there are those that are simply links to articles I've written elsewhere but they take you directly to the recipe.
We discuss using fresh vegetables, making your own seasonings, growing your own herbs and how to use them. I hope you stay for a while and enjoy using the recipes and suggestions. Leave a comment or share something. I will post the recipe with full credit to you if you do.

Non-Dairy Protein Drink for After Weight Training
|Suzie's Quinoa Milk
In a way, I guess I am a pain addict because hurting after a workout never deters me from exercising the next day. But since I am intermittently on my own without a trainer I do a lot of research to make sure I am doing things right. I found out there are things you can do to cut down on the soreness that make your muscles heal faster.
It is strongly recommended to have protein at least an hour before and within 30 minutes after training. Getting your protein solely from shakes does not complete daily requirements but it does get you to optimum, especially if your diet is right.
Some answers:
What happens if I don't get all the protein I need? Will my muscles shrink?
Absolutely not. If you're eating an appropriate amount of protein in general, an occasional low-protein day will not affect muscle growth. The only reasons muscles would get smaller are from lack of use, injury, or severe calorie restriction. - See more at: http://www.mensfitness.com/nutrition/what-to-eat/protein-guide-maximum-muscle#sthash.BeTiJnIs.dpuf
Is there any benefit to getting protein from bars or shakes instead of whole foods?
No. Shakes and protein bars might make it easier to meet your daily protein requirements, but in the end, high-protein foods like meat, eggs, peanut butter, and nuts may actually be more satisfying because they have higher fat content and take longer to digest than shakes or bars. - See more at: http://www.mensfitness.com/nutrition/what-to-eat/protein-guide-maximum-muscle#sthash.BeTiJnIs.dpuf
For women:
So, how much protein do you need? The suggested number differs depending on the source.
According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, the standard food guide recommendation for the average individual is set around 46 grams per day for women and 65 grams per day for men.4
Keep in mind, however, that this is the recommendation for the average, semi-sedentary individual. If you're constantly exercising and breaking down lean muscle tissue, your required protein intake needs to increase. Likewise, if you diet and consume fewer calories from carbs and fats, the macros you consume from protein will need to increase. http://www.bodybuilding.com/fun/women-and-protein-your-complete-guide.html
The essential form of protein in shakes is whey. Whey is a dairy product and that is bad for those who lactose intolerant. There is no way to make it work for us.
About a year ago I discovered non-dairy milks... almond, oatmeal, hemp, sunflower seed. Last week I found some quinoa milk and that was the essential component for me. Quinoa is the king/queen of protein.
When buying milk alternatives the best ones contain no carrageenan, no GMO products, is unsweetened, unflavored and has little processing. Of course, you can always make your own but that is another post. Above is one brand that is ideal but there are many others.
- 1 cup Quinoa Milk (46 calories/2 g protein)
- 1 large egg (70 calories/12 g protein)
- 1 large banana (105 calories/1.3 protein)
- Keep fully ripened bananas handy in the freezer. They add sweetness and will chill your shake.
- Add any fruit or vegetable you think will work for you.
- Add fresh turmeric. It has benefits for the heart, digestion and is high in antioxidants. In order for it to work properly always add some black pepper to whatever dish where it is used. Even your shake.
- Try different milks but be mindful that some are higher in carbs than others.

Sweet Red Bell Pepper Jelly (Not spicy)
|Red Pepper Jelly c/a common street peddler 2014
Canning and jelly making used to be a very big event at my house. My mom would search farmers' markets, travel miles out to their farms and/or place orders at local markets for fruits and vegetables. The largest project was putting up the okra, onions, bell peppers and tomatoes as the base for her famous gumbo.
Since the last jar of it was eaten a few years back I began to make it fresh and only when I needed it. But it wasn't the same for some reason. So, this year I put in the extra effort and made about 15 quarts. But that is a recipe for another posting.
Since then, I've canned a few jellies, fruits and pickles. And, just no ordinary recipes would do since it is easy to purchase those organic products locally. I looked for things that were, at least to me, different in combining tastes, textures and aesthetics.
Today, I am posting a recipe for Red Bell Pepper Jelly. It contains no pectin but is made with Agar Agar instead. From now on, all my jellies and recipes which call for pectin will be made with the seaweed product. Don't worry it's tasteless and very simple to use.
The brand that is recommended is Eden Sea Vegetable Flakes http://www.vitacost.com/eden-foods-agar-agar-sea-vegetable-flakes-1-oz-1 that is sold at Vitacost (incliuded in the link). Here is why Eden is recommended... http://www.edenfoods.com/about/geofree.php. Briefly, it is non-GMO/GEO.
The brand that is recommended is Eden Sea Vegetable Flakes http://www.vitacost.com/eden-foods-agar-agar-sea-vegetable-flakes-1-oz-1 that is sold at Vitacost (incliuded in the link). Here is why Eden is recommended... http://www.edenfoods.com/about/geofree.php. Briefly, it is non-GMO/GEO.
Sweet Red Pepper Jelly (Non spicy)
- 4 large red bell peppers (Organic)
- 2/3 cup Bragg's cider vinegar
- 1/2 teaspoon clarified butter (organic)
- 3/4 teaspoon Kosher or sea salt (salt with iodine is not recommended)
- 3 1/3 cups pure cane sugar
- water to bring mixture to 4 cups after cooking
- 4 tablespoons Eden Agar Agar Sea Vegetable Flakes
- 4 half pint jelly jars (8 oz size)
- 4 rings
- 4 lids
- Canner for water bath
Heat some water in canner and leave it on the lowest heat level.
Wash jars and lids/rings either by hand or in dishwasher. Remove jars from drain or dishwasher. Set them in canner by putting enough water in each to make them stand upright. Turn heat off under post with water. Take some of the hot water and put into a smaller pot. Add rings and lids to smaller pot and set aside. Do not boil.
Wash, core, seed and remove veins from bell peppers. Cut into 2 inch chunks and pulse in food processor until chopped finely.
Put peppers in a large pot with remaining ingredients. (NOTE: if you will be cooking using a candy thermometer make sure the pot is not really deep. The heat will be too intense to hold your hand over it long enough to check the temperature).
Add the rest of the ingredients except for the water and agar agar.
Bring mixture to a boil and continue cooking for 20 minutes. Remove the mixture from heat and measure in a heat proof measuring cup. Add enough water to bring it to 4 cups. Return jelly/water mixture to the pot.
Add the 4 tablespoons of Agar Agar and bring mixture to a boil, reduce heat and simmer 5 minutes, stirring, until Agar Agar is dissolved. Turn off heat.
Remove jars from water. Drain and dry them. Fill with the hot jelly mixture and leave 1/4 inch of head space.
Remove lids and rings from pot and dry with paper towel. Place lids on jars and then screw on rings.
Secure each and set jars of jelly into larger pot with the hot water. jars should be covered by at least an inch of water. Bring water to a boil and do a boiling water bath for 10 minutes.
After 10 minutes turn heat off, remove jars and set on clean dish towel. Let them cool. You will hear the lids "ping" as they seal themselves. Safely sealed jars have lids that do not pop back up when the center is pressed.
If you want your bits of pepper in the jelly to remain evenly distributed, turn the jars upside after about an hour. Leave them that way until they are near room temperature. If the jelly does not return to the bottom of the jar after they are returned to the upright position, don't worry. It will when you open the jar to use it. But if, for aesthetics, you want to avoid that just make sure you return them to standing right side up before the jelly sets.
Agar Agar has fantastic gel properties. Once you try it you will probably like it a lot.

Banana Almond Protein Smoothie for Muscle Support
|Banana Almond Smoothie
Further research shows consuming protein supports muscle development and recovery time from workouts (http://www.fitday.com/fitness-articles/fitness/strength-training/drinking-protein-shakes-how-they-can-help-you-build-muscle.html#b)... drink shake just after an exercise. This will help to provide your body with the protein that it needs to build and strengthen muscles. This extra protein will also help to repair any of the microscopic tears inside muscles. By helping to repair the muscles much quicker than normally, you will be able to reduce the recovery time and build muscles much faster.
- For optimal results consume 10-20 grams of protein after workouts
- Do not use almond milk that contains carrageenan
- Use unsweetened almond milk
- Use all organic ingredients
I choose almond milk because it is the highest in protein. You can use whatever milk alternative suits you but I suggest staying away from soy. There are unbelievable problems consuming soy let alone 93% of it is genetically engineered to contain it's own pesticide. There is no need to use it.
And be aware that it is not be used as a meal replacement. On a 2000 calorie daily meal plan, there is still room for nearly 1600 calories which can easily include a snack or two... I am on a 1700 daily total and struggle to find enough food to meet that so I've started eating larger breakfasts.
Organic Protein Smoothie (447 Calories)
- 1/2 C Zico Coconut water (0 protein)
- 1 C Fresh and Easy Almond Milk (1g protein)
- 2 Bananas (2.6 g protein)
- 1 large Egg (6 g protein)
- 1/4 C Organic Oats (7 g protein)
For added interest you can add ground flax seed, dried and unsweetened coconut or other fruits. Just be aware that the calorie count goes up so at least choose something that adds more protein.
Combine all ingredients in blender and process until smooth.

A New Outlook On Nutrition and My Inspirations For It
|Mrs. Ernestine Shepard- World's Oldest Body Builder at 77.
It was something I had to think about once I was back home. If I walked as much as I could and did the Leslie Sansone Walk At Home workouts, why did that happen to me? Not only that, I found I could no longer squat, get into the child's pose and had absolutely no hops!
One day I poking through some sweatshirts at Costco and I saw my favorite trainer so I asked him. It was simple, I had lost muscle tone in my legs. So, without hesitation I signed up for a three month stint at his gym and that is where the miracles began.
Briefly, I started weight training and at the end of each session we had to run around the block three times before we could leave. In the beginning, I could not take 10 steps without breathing heavily. I set goals for myself by choosing markers that got farther and farther away until I was able to go completely around without stopping.
By the end of the three months, I was able to run a mile without stopping. That is when I fell in love with jogging. But to be honest, I fell in love with working out period. It was now clear to me what my friends were gaining by including gym sessions and running in their daily lives. It is at this point I will say thank you to:
- Ernestine Pratt (One of my fab besties who works out at a gym regularly)
- Evelyn Vandiegriff (Ev does boot camp, rowing, vibration, treadmill. Between her and Estina, the value of their activities help me tremendously)
- Verniel Monk (I saw Vee run one day and 10-year-olds couldn't catch her!)
- Jacqui Venters (Mind, body and spirit are in fabulous condition)
- Bernice Strickland (Walking at the beach in the early mornings and then going back to her house to raid her fridge jump started my walking career)
- Johnnie Strickland (Bernice and I hated on Johnnie a lot during our walks because Johnnie weighed about two pounds total)
- Chuckie Miller (My fave trainer who probably regrets taking down the "No Whining" sign at the gym, lol.)
- David Byrd (My cousin who never quit doing his morning track and stair runs)
- Netra Michelle Brown (Has always has been a dynamo of energy)
- Ernestine Shepard, the grand diva of workouts pictured in the photo above. Mrs. Shepard didn't start working out until she was 56. This is how much I love her way of life... James Brown and Miles Davis are absolutely my two favorite performers. You can play Prisoner of Love and So What all day every day and I will want to hear them again at night. That is how much I admire Mrs. Shepard.
My body does not look like hers but my spirit is telling me to go for it. I am now up to 4 miles and last night I did the run in 53 minutes. Push-ups are no longer scary and neither are planks. Weight loss is 35 pounds. I had to buy new dumbbells because I can lift heavier now.
All of the above was the introduction to the changes to this blog, acommonstreetpeddler.blogspot.com... We, meaning me, no longer promote/use/eat anything made with certain ingredients. We still love down home cooking but it is healthier than ever. We also eat organic the majority of the time but if that option is not available we choose traditionally grown and make sure we wash it thoroughly before consuming. We do not do Genetically Modified Organisms (GMOs).
So from now on, assume that recipes listed here are promoting organic foods. If it contains carrageenan, canola oil, vegetable oil, corn syrup, high fructose corn syrup and are full of chemicals none of the recipes here use them. We will say exactly which ingredient to use.

Delicious No-Fat Chicken
I love this chicken because it requires very little to make and it is diet friendly without having to think about it. Loads of flavor, no fat, little effort.
- Any amount of chicken (except breasts)
- 1/2 onion, washed and sliced
- 1/2 bell pepper (red or green but the red is prettier), washed and sliced
- 3 cloves of garlic, washed and smashed
- Lawry's Seasoning Salt
- Black Pepper
- Pan coating
- Boiling water
- Oven to stovetop safe pan or skillet
- Heat oven to 375 degrees.
- Put water in tea kettle or pot and let it come to a boil. When it does, turn the fire down so that it simmers while you are preparing the chicken.
- Wash chicken and pat dry. In a bowl, sprinkle with the seasoning salt and pepper.
- Coat your pan with non stick. I make my own but Pam is fine.
- Arrange chicken so that there is only one layer in the pan. Set pan in oven and let chicken brown.
- When it is browned, set pan on top of stove. Put the vegetables on top and add enough boiling water to cover the chicken. Let it cook until less than 1/4 inch of liquid is left in the pan. You do not have to cover but can if you want.
- The trick to this dish is the amount of liquid left in the pan. First, don't over salt your chicken. The lower the liquid gets, the more intense the flavor and too much salt will ruin it. Second, don't try to make this a gravy. It is supposed to be like a reduced sauce, kind of thick. And... it looks great on the plate, especially served with rice or mashed potatoes. I use Fresh and Easy Instant Brown Rice which isn't so instant, it just cooks faster.
- When serving, just spoon a little of the sauce onto the chicken, rice or potatoes.

Simple, Delicious Cuban Black Beans
|FreeDigitalPhotos.net photo by Gualberto107
Usually, I add cooked rice and mix it in before serving. That is the standard way of serving them along with some salsa and cojita cheese. Tastes so good they will ask for seconds.
I served it with blackened salmon and avocado/herb salad. Total calories: 684 per serving.
1 (14 oz) can Fresh and Easy Organic black beans
1/2 small onion, chopped
1 Tablespoon coconut oil
1 Tablespoon olive oil
1 small clove garlic, minced
Salt and Pepper to taste
Fresh parsley or cilantro for garnish
Optional: fresh parsley and cojita cheese to sprinkle on top
In a large heavy skillet, spray with non stick oil. Heat and then add oils. Add chopped onions and saute until soft. Add garlic. Immediately add whole can of beans including liquid in can. Cook on low until all liquid is absorbed.
At this point you can add cooked rice (I use Fresh and Easy Instant Brown Rice). Add as much as you like but usually 1 cup rice to 1/2 cup of beans is fine.

"Originally Posted by photogalv
I started charting, but I have a serious problem:
I often have to pee desperately when I get up. I totally forget about charting, then I go back to sleep.
Also, even if it weren't for the peeing, I never get up at the same time each day (I'm self-employed)! Is there any way for me to accurately chart??? I did it for over a month and my temps were ALL OVER the place!!!!"
I get up at 6am for work, so to do my charting, I set my alarm for 5am, that way Im not likely ready to pee yet like I am at 6am. I have my thermometre right next to my alarm which is right next to my bed so I dont have to do any more than move my arm. Then I get another hour sleep . It seems to be working for me like that
I'm really such a newbie. I had to do a bit of research to be able to understand all the abbreviations. I needed to know why a menstruation period is called AF and why sex is termed BD. Haha.

I don't know why either are abreviated the way they are but what does that matter?
AF= Aunt flow
BD= Baby dancing

Hi i'm new to this board/site and have started to input my charting information into the calendar but is there a way to see an actual chart so that you can see the trends? I saw somewhere on the site that it said to input your last missed period but i dont see anywhere that specifically asked for that or allows me to choose that option. Can you give me some guidance?

Liked it – recommend (B+)
My review is going up last week. I adored this book right up till the end, then it lost me. I thought it was just too simple of a conclusion, but Blue broke my heart.
Meant to say, my review is going up next week. *sigh*
C: Time for more coffee!
Thanks for the great review! I'm sooo far behind on this series. It got buried in the TBR mountain range. Gotta go get a helmet and dig em out
Thank you!! This is a really fun series! I'm looking forward to reading other reviews to see what some other thoughts are on the book. It's snarky and quirky, which I always like.
My TBR mountain range is currently a very daunting prospect, as well. But, this story is definitely worth digging out.

New Englands Premiere Fireworks Company
Watch us light up the sky for Sunday River!
The new online home of RS Fireworks
The foundation of RS fireworks was a desire to create a different pyrotechnic experience; one that would have the people leaving the show with giddy, warm, happy feeling. In order to accomplish this task we needed to seek out new style of shells- a style that would give dazzling colors, larger breaks and longer burning ratios. Hence, we viewed countless displays and production demonstration finding a supplier that would allow us to achieve our goals. We received exclusive rights to shells from Spain, Italy, Japan, China as well as America.
RS Display Fireworks is a top of the line display company offering the latest products from around the world. Our experienced staff can help you design the perfect show for your holiday, special event, backyard barbeque, or even wedding. We can design a breath taken show for any budget. Expand your audience by offering techniques not often seen in this area. Put the fun back into to fireworks by adding such techniques as interactive displays, choreographed with music, DJ's, and crowd entertainment.
We are extremely proud to be shooting the firework display's for both Sunday River and Sugar Loaf Ski resorts. We have been doing these shoots for the past two years and plan on lighting up the ski over the resort's for many years. If you haven't seen a firework display over a snowy white covered mountain it is a wonderful sight to see. What better place to do this than from one of these Class A ski resorts.
Shawn Connors and Rob Lavoie developed their friendship while playing AAA Youth Hockey in grade school. This friendship continued through High School, where they began to shoot small class C fireworks shows for families and friends. After 9-11, Shawn joined the Army. Before he left for Iraq, they made plans to start a fireworks company upon his return. When Shawn left for tank training, Rob continued to run his family business. During this time, Rob also did research on class B fireworks. Additionally he joined groups such as Pyrotechnics Guild International (the primary trade organization in the United States for fireworks) and the New Hampshire Pyrotechnic Association. The later is an organization for fireworks enthusiasts that ignite fireworks at club event and teach members about the industry. After nine months in Iraq, Shawn was sent home with a medical discharge and a purple heart. After a short recovery, Shawn moved his family back to NH where the two formed RS Fireworks. They went through months of training and research before deciding on the type of shows they wanted to present. With Rob handling the technical side, and Shawn the business end, these partners have created an incredible balanced team.
They were recently asked to clarify what makes them different from their competition? They replied, "We want to bring to fireworks, the same excitement that Ben and Jerry's brings to ice cream."
Welcome to our family,
Shawn Connors / Rob Lavoie
How do I plan a fireworks display?
You first need to determine if there is enough room at your location. This is something that can be determined through our staff asking you some questions and possible traveling to the site. Next is to determine the types of effects, our expert staff will help you put together the show that you have always wanted. Contact us when you are ready to start planning
Are permits required?
Yes. However we handle obtaining all permits for your fireworks display. We find this to be easier on the our clients.
What is the minimum price for a display?
Our very basic show (usually for backyards and or barbecues) runs around $4000, whereas a large display can easily exceed $10,000. Volume of shells, and duration of show can be easily adjusted to achieve your budget.
How long in advance should I contract out?
Obviously, the longer the better, however; as long as we are not booked we can be ready about one month out.
How much room is needed?
Depending on the size of the shells we use depends on the distance. A minimum of 70ft per inch is required from the spectators. This means a 3 inch shell requires 210ft.
How long is set-up?
Depending on the size of the show determines how long is needed. A minimum of 4 hours for are smallest show. We shoot most of our shows electrically it takes longer than manually shoots but the time needed makes for a outstanding display.
It was time for the fireworks, they were the biggest, and the best fireworks I have ever seen. Then again, Old Home Days was super sized. Mom told me that the company that put on the fireworks show was by a man who lived in Hudson, RS Fireworks, and wasn't it "nice to have a Hudson resident help us out that way." As we walked back to the car. The sky was still full of light. Kids were still laughing, kids were still in strollers, kids were still being carried on dad's shoulders, and kids were still walking hand-in-hand with grown-ups and their busy day ended. Everyone was still smiling, because, like me, they too had super-fun at the super sized Hudson Old Home Days.

My English Pale Ale was kegged 4 weeks ago and it still isn't clear. I added Irish Moss like usual, but it just won't clear. So, after reading some posts here regarding gelatin, I decided to add some to the keg. So, I used 1/2 tsp in 1 cup of water. I heated it until dissolved and then cooled it. I hope this was the right amount because there seems to be different amounts used in the posts. The keg is only 3/4 full at this point.

"Actually, Dwight, you're right. Alcohol is very very bad...for children. But once you turn 21, it becomes very very good! So scram!" -- Leela
Newer, better, more streamlined sig as per the forum police.
What yeast did you use and what temp are you storing at?
I presume this is a problem you normally don't have with your beer?
Lack of clarity could be due to yeast, or it could be due to haze-inducing proteins. Is the beer clear when warm then hazy when cold?
A complete description of the beer and your brew day, mash schedule, grains and yeast used, storing conditions, etc. will help us troubleshoot.

You can add a protein rest to the beginning of your mash, though this is usually more useful in higher protein grains like wheat/rye/oats, etc. It can't hurt.
I have gotten into the habbit of cold crashing my beers for 1 week with gelatin added in there. It creates a thick paste of residue (well trub) in the bottom of the carboys. If you've got the room, that definitely helps.
You can also try polyclar. I always get the 2 mixed up - gelatin in secondary and polyclar in the keg or vice versa. I'm pretty sure it's gel in the 2nd, poly in the keg.
Another habit I've formed is filtration. I run it through a 5 micron and back through a 1 micron well filter. That clears pretty much all of the sediment out.
I'll also toss around 2 pints when transferring from the primary to the secondary and from the secondary to the keg because I try to keep my siphon above the trub.
I'll also whirlpool when I cool my wort by recirculating it. Creates a nice cone of hop and grain debris in the middle. I just did that for the first time on my last batch, and I think it will probably work pretty well.
As you can guess, I'm anal about the clarity of my beer. I still haven't perfected the process, but each batch is looking better and better. I have high hopes for my new castle clone and wee heavy...they both looked great going through the filter. I'll post pics sometime next week once they carb. Good luck
Try SuperKleer or another 2-stage fining.
Quite honestly, I've stopped using gelatin. Whirfloc in the boil, cold crash for 1 week at 32 at the end of fermentation, and then another 2 weeks cold crash while it's carbonating (set-and-forget). First half-pint is cloudy, and it's crystal clear after that until the keg is blown. If I'm pushed for time I'll add gelatin to the primary after 24 hours at 32 degrees and will give it another 2 or 3 days, and it's usually clear by then, but I'm only saving a couple of days.
Best fining solution = cold crash and a little time in my (unqualified) opinion!
I am not a clear beer freak, especially with highly hopped IPA's. But it is nice when you pull a crystal clear pint for a friend .
I had a real problem with my last 2 batches, and IPA and an APA. Both were beyond hazy, they were murky. I have posted about it here, talked to my HBS, and I got some good suggestions, but no real answers as to why it was such an issue this time when it was not in the past. I added some gelatin, and it did clear the batches, but both were definitely off, and I ended up dumping them.
I am convinced it was either a yeast issue or more likely the higher fermentation temps that gave me trouble. The yeast was third generation washed. I usually ferment at ambient temps around 60F, but with the heat in June, July, August here in NJ I think it was closer to 70F ambeint in my basement which means I was fermenting closer to 75F I think.
Anyway, I picked up a new pack of yeast and brewed a tried and true IPA recipe this weekend. It's in a big cooler in 60F water and I will do my best to hold it at 60F through fermentation to see if that is the difference.
But honestly, when it all works out "right" I brew, ferment in primary for 2 weeks, rack to secondary for 10 days, keg, carb for 2 weeks, and after the first two pints the beer is pretty gosh darn clear. Generally by the last 1/3 of the keg it's as clear as I could hope for. It's the waiting that's the hard part .
Good luck!
I used Wyeast Thames Valley Ale (#1275). I normally don't have issues with cloudiness in my beers. I did an hour mash at 154F. Grains used were: 11.5 lb Maris Otter, 1 lb 40L, 0.75 lb 60L. I did a 3-week single stage fermentation. After the boil, I used an IC to bring the wort down to 70F in about 20 minutes. Thanks for everyone's responses!

Platt and Truant Reunite to Launch UNICORN WESTERN 2
Unicorn Western 2 is also the second book to be co-authored by the independently published duo. As a sequel to the original Unicorn Western, it continues the story of gunslinger Clint Guilliver and his talking unicorn Edward as they pursue the dark rider Dharma Kold.
"We decided to write Unicorn Western when my usual writing partner David Wright challenged me to write a Western without doing any research," Platt said.
"He didn't think it was possible, and he believed my knowledge of history is so poor he joked that I'd probably put unicorns into the story.
"From that joke, Unicorn Western was born. It's early days, but so far the buzz around it has been fantastic. Johnny and I are now planning a series of nine novellas minimum."
First launched in December 2012, the Unicorn Western series has already notched up 10 five star reviews on Amazon and Amazon UK, and has an average review score of 4.7 stars out of a possible five.
When they're not forging new genres, Platt and Truant- together with David Wright - give writers the inside scoop on indie publishing in their weekly Self Publishing Podcast.
"Like all my fiction, Unicorn Western is indie published," Truant said. "I'm part of a new generation of authors who developed our voice and a loyal following of readers through blogging. It makes sense to us that you don't need a printing press or a publisher to get in front of readers. All it takes is the click of a mouse, quality writing and a touch of marketing savvy."
Platt added that readers no longer shun self-published books like they used to.
"Self-published books used to be pretty much ignored. Publishing your own book was seen as vain, and few readers wanted to risk their hard-earned money on a book that hadn't met the standards of a publishing house.
"Amazon's review system makes it far easier for readers to find quality self-published books. Fifteen of Amazon's top 100 bestselling ebooks in 2012 were self-published, which shows how much has changed in just a few years. The stigma of self publishing has been annihilated.
"Now, all smart authors want to self publish. With a typical royalty rate of 70%, compared to 15% from traditional publishers, going indie is the future of publishing."
Unicorn Western 2 is available from Amazon.com priced $2.99.

Our friends Grizfolk had their stuff stolen as reported on their social media accounts twitter & facebook.
Here is how you can help according to their facebook post made just moments ago:
Dear friends, thank you all for your outreach and support, it means a lot to us. Last night after the show in Pomona someone broke into our van and stole our gear. We would really appreciate any help finding these items, as some of them were not just valuable but sentimental to us. We are offering a reward, no questions asked, we just want our stuff back. If you're in Pomona or a surrounding area, we need your help: Please check your local pawn shop, used music retailer, and your local craigslist. Here's a list and pictures of the items. Keep in mind when searching that the Telecaster guitar and the Elmwood amp head will be the most noticeable items. The telecaster was extremely rare, one of a kind, no other guitar on planet earth has the exact same appearance. Any leads will be so greatly appreciated, please contact email@example.com.
Please repost, retweet, and share with friends. Thanks again for your help.
-1968 Fender Telecaster "the Duke". Faded yellow, with figsby tremolo. Blank headstock.
-66 reissue Fender Jazz bass guitar, white body and white headstock, red tortoise pick guard.
-Martin GPC PA6 acoustic guitar, natural wood grain.
-Gibson songwriter acoustic guitar, tobacco sunburst.
-Black Microkorg keyboard w/ black keys.

You can find pictures of the items located on their facebook page here.
We at #i99MusicRadio will do everything in our power to spread the word about this terrible situation. It's a shame this happens too often and on behalf of everyone, we hope these fuckers are caught!

ATI Mobility Radeon X700
Subject: Graphics Cards | March 16, 2005 - 10:59 AM | Ryan Shrout
The gang at HardOCP have written up a bit on the ATI Mobility Radeon X700 core using an Acer Travelmate notebook.
For the class of notebook that this is the Mobility Radeon X700 is at the top of its game. It allows the highest level of playable quality settings we have seen yet for this class of notebook. Though the gaming experience isn't going to be as great as a desktop replacement laptop you can still have a whole lot of fun on the go gaming with this notebook.
Some Random GPU News
Subject: Graphics Cards | March 15, 2005 - 12:42 PM | Ryan Shrout
The Inquirer has some interesting GPU-based news this afternoon. First, they found the NVIDIA is looking into
VisionTek XTASY X850 XT Review
Subject: Graphics Cards | March 15, 2005 - 01:10 AM | Ryan Shrout
HardOCP has reviewed the VisionTek branded X850 XT GPU today and though they seem to like the card, availability is STILL an issue.
The MSRP on the VisionTek XTASY X850 XT is $499. Searching various online stores we did find the VisionTek XTASY X850 XT at one retailer on sale for $488 but it was out of stock. At other online retailers we did find it in stock and found the price to be anywhere from $499 all the way to $614 at one retailer.
ATI Multi-GPU Technology and More from CeBit
Subject: Graphics Cards | March 13, 2005 - 03:10 AM | Ryan Shrout
With still more CeBit coverage, Hexus has visited the Asus booth and found more than a few interesting tid bits for you all to read about. The most note worthy is a spotting of the ATI MVP technology for dual GPUs in a single system. They also have the dual 6800 Ultra and 6600 GT cards pictured, the Intel 955 motherboard and a Pentium M board on display as well.
MVP supports split frame rendering using supertiling, where the screen is split up into tiled areas with each tile processed
More Dual 6800 Ultra Pics!
Subject: Graphics Cards | March 13, 2005 - 02:57 AM | Ryan Shrout
You need to stop by HardOCP to see the updated, hi resolution photos they have coming in from CeBIT of the Asus dual 6800 Ultra card -- two 6800U GPUs on a single card??? Outrageous.
Notes on this are that the card uses 512MB of DDR3 (256 per GPU) and will require a special motherboard. Of course we saw Gigabytes dual 6600 require a special motherboard, but it did run on our ASUS SLI board just fine. So time will tell.
Is ATI Close with Multi GPU Technology?
Subject: Graphics Cards | March 11, 2005 - 11:34 AM | Ryan Shrout
Fudo at the Inquirer seems to think so...
Anyway ATI has its marchitecture ready and we learned that you will be able to do ATI Multiple VPU with two different cards. You will be able to plug one X800 and one X850 cards together and faster card will downscale to the slower and will work simultaiously with it.
ATI is showing of its motherboard supporting ATI Multiple VPU powered with two Radeon X850 XT PE cards or should we use R480 codenames.

Otherwise, and I'll ignore my issues with MMC's interface, since I'm assured it's being worked on, it's a standout multimedia product. It's the definitive, best-of-breed combination 3D and video product for AGP systems, by quite some margin.

ATI Announces X800 XL and X850 XT in AGP Form
Subject: Graphics Cards | February 28, 2005 - 04:28 PM | Ryan Shrout
This is quite a surprise announcement from ATI this morning -- they are now announcing that they have AGP parts based on the X800 XL and X800 XT GPUs. These cards use an ATI bridge chip that converts the PCIe bus to the AGP bus. Here's some more information in the official PR:

The Ultimate Graphics Card Kit?
Subject: Graphics Cards | February 28, 2005 - 02:24 PM | Sean Pelletier
If this new kit from Gainward isn't the ultimate graphics card upgrade kit, it has to be pretty damn close. The thought of two watercooled GeForce 6800 Ultras with 512MB of memory (each) in SLI should be enough to put a smile on any gamer's face. Can you image the benchmark scores from this SLI kit with 1GB of total VGA memory?
512MB NVIDIA Layout Changes?
Subject: Graphics Cards | February 28, 2005 - 02:17 PM | Sean Pelletier
A few images on an engineering sample 512MB NVIDIA GeForce 6800 Ultra have been floating around online today. Although the additional 256MB is an obvious benefit, there are some rather drastic layout changes to the board which should certainly raise an eyebrow. Taking a glimpse at the image below, you'll see that the memory is not cooled in any way here and that the traditional passive heatsink assembly seen on 6800 Ultras will not fit.
512MB Graphcis Card Eye-Candy
Subject: Graphics Cards | February 24, 2005 - 10:28 PM | Sean Pelletier
Those with systems that have 512MB of memory or less should avert their eyes as images of ATI's 512MB "proof-of-concept" graphics card have found their way online. Try not to think of the cost and instead focus on the performance boost the extra memory could lend in something like Doom3.

Chaintech GeForce 6600GT AGP
Subject: Graphics Cards | January 2, 2005 - 02:51 PM | Chris Wiles
"The GeForce 6600 video card was initially released as a PCI-Express video card. Recently Nvidia released an AGP version of the 6600 for those who have not made the leap to the new bus type. Nvidia places the 6600 series in the performance category while the biggest and baddest 6800 is in the enthusiast category. Currently there are two models of the 6600 line, the regular 6600 and 6600GT which is faster than the regular 6600.
Mobility Radeon X800
Subject: Graphics Cards | December 30, 2004 - 02:02 AM | Mark McKee
Those of you interested in laptop gaming might want to check out this review of ATI's Mobility X800. You can find the review over at Beyond3d.
"M28, fundamentally, is very similar to M18 as they are both derived from basically the same core parts. Where M18 is derived from ATI's R420 core,
M28 is derived from R423 - both of these cores are architecturally, and performance configuration wise, the same but R420 is built for AGP graphics
whilst R423 is built for PCI Express.

A correction and a call for compromise
By Marsha Sutton
My Dec. 20, 2012 column titled "Twenty dead children have to matter" – about the Newtown tragedy and the renewed debate over gun control – elicited reactions across the spectrum that reminded me how far apart we are in our views on the proliferation of guns.
Yet I also found reasons to be hopeful. Everyone without exception wants kids to be safe at school. And almost everyone who wrote in agreed that sensible gun laws consistent from state to state (depending upon one's definition of "sensible") need to be combined with better and faster treatment of the mentally ill.
Violent movies and video games are also contributing factors, and most said ways to protect schoolchildren should be considered.
Clearly, several approaches are required. Gun control alone won't do it. Actually, nothing will do it completely, and that's a fact. But steps can be taken to reduce these horrific shootings, and we can make progress if we stop thinking they can be eliminated altogether.
Thanks to knowledgeable readers who clearly know a great deal more about guns than I do, I learned that gun laws in California have been tightened since I last visited the local gun show (which admittedly was a while ago and I'm still traumatized by the memory).
In my column, I wrote that it was easy to buy guns of all sorts at gun shows, "immediately, with little if any waiting period."
Actually, there is a 10-day waiting period, even for gun show purchases, which must be made through a licensed dealer, according to the Calif. Dept. of Justice Office of the Attorney General.
However, gun shows are still frightening exhibitions of killing machines, no matter how long buyers have to wait to receive their weapons.
And rules are not so stringent in other states. According to the Campaign to Close the Gun Show Loophole, about 40 percent of the 5,000 gun shows across the country each year allow unlicensed sellers to sell guns without conducting a background check: "Although 17 states have taken action to partially or completely close this loophole, 33 states have not."
So the overarching point of my previous column, that guns are far too easy to access, stands.
Some would repeal the Second Amendment. Others say all guns and all kinds of ammunition should be legal. Two extremes. Is there no place to come together in the middle and reach compromise? Most certainly.
Despite what some have charged, gun control supporters are not trying to "punish" citizens by taking away their constitutionally guaranteed rights. In fact, even many gun advocates support more responsible ownership and believe there are reasonable limits that should be placed on the right to own firearms, given how this right has been abused by criminals.
Gun owners are generally law-abiding citizens who also want, obviously, these murderous rampages to stop. After all, shootings give gun owners a bad name. So we are in agreement on that for certain. This, at least, is a place to start.

jms' work in this vein has been derivative - to be kind.
True. I read his proposal, it was more or less
Babylon 5
reworked as a
Star Trek
pitch, complete with the mystery as to why Kirk had been made a commander (a la Sheridan) and some ancient alien evil (a la the Shadows).
But, to be similarly blunt, Whedon's antics bore me to tears. His characters run the gamut from lame humour to syrupy angst.
Perhaps a better comparison is Abrams himself. He's been pretty successful as a producer of his own TV ideas, such as
, and he's gone on to make a
Star Trek
movie. If given the kind of freedom he has with the film, I wouldn't be surprised if a past hypothetical TV writer and/or producer of quality is interested.
Perhaps, if a series is to come immediately from this film at all, it'd be through Abrams' collaborators. Orci & Kurtzmann? Lindelof? I don't know.

Office Depot Inc.
)- one of the leading suppliers of office products and services
across the globe - is expected to report its third quarter 2012
financial results on Tuesday, October 30, 2012.
The current Zacks Consensus Estimate for the quarter stands at
1 cent per share, which is above the break-even earnings reported
in the comparable prior-year period. Revenue, as per the Zacks
Consensus Estimate, is pegged at $2,731 million.
Last Quarter Recap
Office Depot posted second-quarter 2012 results with a loss of
14 cents a share that sharply widened from a loss of 6 cents
delivered in the year-ago quarter, and also fared worse than the
Zacks Consensus Estimate of a loss of 9 cents. The dismal results
were due to weak top-line performance on account of soft sales in
North America and Europe.
The company's total revenue of $2,507.2 million decreased 7%
from the prior-year quarter and also fell short of the Zacks
Consensus Estimate of $2,584 million. In constant currency,
revenue slipped 5%.
Agreement of Estimate Revision
For the to-be-reported quarter, the estimates remain unchanged
with no estimate going up or down (out of 14) over the last 30
days or 7 days. Furthermore, the story remains the same for
fiscal 2012. The estimates were kept intact mainly due to lack of
news or event, which could have a direct or indirect impact on
Magnitude of Estimate Revision
For the third quarter 2012, the estimate remains stagnant at 1
cent per share over the last 7 or 30 days, mainly due to the
absence of estimate revision, whereas for 2012, the estimate
remained unchanged at a loss of 3 cents over the last 7 or 30
Mixed Earnings Surprise History
With respect to earnings surprise, Office Depot has missed the
Zacks Consensus Estimate in two quarters over the last four
quarters, whereas the estimates met and surpassed in one quarter
each. The average remained at a negative of 77.8%.
Office Depot is containing costs, closing underperforming
stores, managing inventory and focusing on providing innovative
products and services, which should all contribute to margin
improvement. In order to increase store sales productivity, the
company is concentrating on remodeling and introducing smaller
format stores. However, we still remain cautious about the
macroeconomic environment, with small businesses and consumers
still remaining watchful on their spending.
As a result, we maintain our long term 'Neutral'
recommendation on the stock. However, Office Depot, which
competes with
Staples Inc.
) and
OfficeMax Inc.
), carries a Zacks #5 Rank, implying a short-term 'Strong Sell'
rating on the stock for the coming 1-3 months, and reflects
negative average earnings surprise.
