Ontario is bringing together a group of experts to provide advice on how to prevent bee mortalities.
The Bee Health Working Group will be comprised of beekeepers, farmers, agri-business representatives, scientists, and staff from both federal and provincial government agencies. Drawing on a broad range of expertise, the working group will provide recommendations on how to mitigate the potential risk to honey bees from exposure to neonicotinoid -- a pesticide used for corn and soybeans.
The working group will meet for the first time this month and provide its recommendations by spring 2014.

From the World
May Fri 11, 2012
On April 26, AVSI in Haiti inaugurated a series of structures built in response to the catastrophic earthquake of January 12, 2010: 9 schools; five nutritional centers; a complex of artisan workshops; and an educational center. These structures were built in the toughest neighborhoods, Cité Soleil and Martissant, in Port-au-Prince, the capital that on its own is famous for being a complex place.It was a special day in Cité Soleil, a day of joy and thanksgiving, one of those occasions that will long be remembered. After over 24 months of almost uninterrupted work, of great effort with little room for detail, we finally got some time for us, for our community, to smile at the timid results we had achieved.Working in these communities has always been a daily challenge: a challenge to keep the workers safe (too much risk, too much violence); a challenge for development cooperation (too many conflicts, too many dangers that the results are insufficient); a challenge for the structure of humanitarian aid (too much widespread poverty, too complex an environment). AVSI took up this challenge, now six years ago, when they opened a base here, an office that did not close even in difficult times, creating a team that has tried never to give up when faced with difficulties, assuming all the risks that were to be taken, even the most complex.Even organizing this opening ceremony proved a challenge. The discussions were almost interminable: "if something happens", "and if we fail", "and if...", but the desire to give a strong sign of hope to the community finally prevailed and the inauguration happened.On the morning of April 26, in the presence of Auxiliary Bishop Msgr. Lafontant and the Pastor of the community of Cité Soleil, the Apostolic Nuncio Mgr. Bernadito Auza blessed the structures of Place Fierté: 4 schools and a nutrition center. The other 5 schools and 6 centers were also inaugurated long-distance through the blessing of artisan crosses, which our collaborators then brought to the other sites.The ceremony was attended by many international and local institutions, including the World Bank, UNICEF, WFP, the Ministry of Social Affairs, and Partner Organizations, a sign of respect and appreciation at the various levels of the work we had done. Also, many Italian friends were present, representing the incredible number of people who supported, in silent gratuity, this major work of responding to the disaster. Institutions and friends who, during the ceremony, represented for us the true face of the many supporters who believed with courage in our actions and in the future of these communities, refusing to yield to how the majority thinks, but desiring to affirm that even the impossible becomes possible if you believe together.This success, the great challenge that has been met, in the end is just that: making possible what seems impossible.

Rodgers, take the money and run..Don't hold out for more and become viewed as a greedy QB..bad PR move.
Originally written on 60 Max Power O | Last updated 11/20/14
Ian Rapoport of the NFL Network reports that things are getting pretty close to an agreement with quarterback Aaron Rodgers and the Green Bay Packers, but they're still roughly $2 million per year apart on their offers, a source told him. Not too bad of a difference, that likely will work itself out in the coming days, and will as reported earlier, make Rodgers the highest paid QB in the league. The team's latest contract offer is reportedly around $21 million per year, which is better then the $20.6 million Joe Flacco just received. Per Rapoport: 'The two sides are also still haggling over how much money will come to Rodgers in the next two seasons, among other issues. Per the terms of the current deal that runs out in 2014, Rodgers is set to earn $19.75 over those two years. That makes him underpaid based on his status and performance. It is not clear how many years the possible new extension would run. But it is clear that Rodgers' agent David Dunn and mem...

Natural creaminess really makes the difference
I was very excited to get this machine because I've been on the Paleo diet for about 8 months now. The Paleo way of eating excludes dairy, among other things, and this is the perfect answer to my ice cream cravings. I was a bit skeptical of the consistency of the ice cream, but the banana's natural creaminess really makes the difference. I have not yet tried other frozen fruit, but I suspect they will have a consistency more like a sorbet. Do heed the instructions of letting the bananas thaw somewhat. It makes pushing them through the machine a bit easier. My daughter, who is 11 and prides herself as a foodie, loved it. That's a test right there if it passes muster with an 11 year old.~ SzeBreeze
The great healthiest snack
I saw this on Dr. Oz. It makes the great healthiest snack. Frozen fruit, is all you need and you don't need a lot, two bananas and four strawberries make a sweet treat for 2. If you don't want the calories use more strawberries. You can't beat it. It will STOP a sweet tooth. Let the fruit set out for 10 min before using. So worth the money.~ Fitnessnut
I've bought five for gifts and myself
We have used it so much since we bought it. So far I've bought five for gifts and myself. It will be so nice to have for the summer when ice cream is so appreciated. I love the healthy way to have desserts.~ Judith
Favorite Amazon purchase ever
This may be my favorite Amazon purchase ever. Once I figured out how to take apart the pieces that needed to be cleaned, I am able to make delicious, healthy desserts easily. I'm not even a huge fan of bananas, but the bananas make a great, creamy base for the final product. It is a delicious, easy way to get fruit into your diet. Ice cream is my weakness and I wanted something to quell those cravings. This is it. I do recommend immediately cleaning the machine after use. And when freezing the bananas, make sure to peel them first.~ Amazon Fan
The best zero point tasty treats
It makes the best zero point tasty treats for those of us on the Weight Watchers program. Worked perfectly first try just like the on-air demonstration. Just need to take your frozen fruit out of the freezer about five minutes prior to using it.~ Anonymous
Easy and fast
Using the Yonanas frozen treat maker is easy and fast. From the first use the dessert created was delicious. If using just fruit, zero points plus on the Weight Watchers program is a big added bonus. Very Impressed~ Zirkda
So incredibly YUMMY!
The dessert that this machine makes is so incredibly YUMMY! I follow the Weight Watchers program and I LOVE fruited ice creams but they are too many WW points. I made black cherry yonanas this summer (black cherries and bananas, frozen...that's it) and as I was eating it I couldn't believe how great it tasted and how much it "felt like" ice cream! ZERO POINTS! I do find that I have to allow my frozen fruit to sit out about 5 minutes and it makes the perfect consistency! I've recommended this product to all my WW friends!"~ Deb
Great healthy investment!
Outstanding buy! Arrived in 2 days, very simple operation. Easy to assemble and disassemble for cleaning. Made bananas and mixed berries our first night and our 8 month old loved them. Great alternative to ice cream.~ Gamppy

Not the best on the coast...Posted Jul 15, 2014 on Hotels.com
If you are looking for a cheap overnight while traveling, this is your hotel. If you are in search of something more, keep looking. The hotel itself is always dark, a little damp, and rather strange. The room looks like it was decorated by a small child. I would suggest staying in Salerno or Positano if you are looking for something exciting.

for Everyoneby Scottfrom Omaha, NE
Wonderful views, quiet small villagePosted Apr 23, 2014
Pros: The room and hotel generally was very clean. The staff was very helpful.
Location: The village of Praiano is very quiet compared to Almalfi. There are a few restaurants nearby. But it is a lot of fun to walk the steep streets.
The staff at this small hotel is nice and helpful. The freshly baked croissants that come with breakfast are really terrific. Parking is a big issue on the Almalfi coast, the single road that goes through the area is incredibly narrow. The hotel offers parking at an extra charge, and the parking offered is convenient to the rooms and is a good space. Many hotels in the area require a porter or some special way to get your bags from the car to the room, because the hillsides are so steep. But this hotel has good access. It is important to note that the standard rooms do not have a view, although they do open to a terrace. The Superior and better rooms have a wonderful view. It is also important to note that this is a clean and simple hotel, not a luxury hotel. The hotel was a bit difficult to locate. My GPS was off by several hundred feet, which is a lot when there is no place to pull over and sort things out. You want to look for a red star, that is the raised sign on the ocean side of the street. That sign is not over the street and is not especially visible.

Favorite Vegetables
Recently I've realized how glad I am that I love vegetables (and I'm a far cry from a vegetarian). I even thanked my parents the other day for forcing me to eat vegetables as a kid, as I remembered that my cousin at family functions would refuse and get away with it, and is still a picky eater today. I've noticed a lot of people (though not all) who don't like vegetables tend to be more narrow-minded when it comes to food. And while I can definitely enjoy a straight up meat+carb dish, I think it's more satisfying when a vegetable is included. When I'm low on money (especially as a perpetual student), throwing in some broccoli with standard pasta+oil+garlic completely elevates the meal. And of course, all the nutritional benefits. I had to hold back in insisting to my bf (who is trying to lose weight) to include a vegetable side to his dinner of ribs and mac and cheese. He was resigned to having a delicious but guilt-inducing meal. When trying to lose weight we tend to think of meals as delicious fatty indulgences or healthy and responsible bland filler.
THEREFORE, I thought it might be interesting to find out from fellow chowhounds what vegetables are your favorite and what ways you like to prepare them and include them in your meal (or even make it the centerpiece).
I love almost any vegetable roasted. My favorite side is a medley of roasted zucchini, yellow squash, green and red peppers, red and yellow onions. I like putting said medley in a wrap with a chipotle hummus. I love roasted grape tomatoes, roasted eggplant. I always think I can make people like vegetables by just roasting them.
My favorite vegetable? Whatever's in season! I grow my own organically, and grow as wide a variety as possible. Right now, the asparagus is winding down, and I just harvested the first of the broccoli.
Mostly, we like our veggies very simply prepared---usually just heated in the microwave until tender-crisp. And, as you said, roasted. But we also enjoy them in Indian recipes. Madhur Jaffrey's recipe for Green Beans with Cumin and Fennel Seeds is one of our favorites
I really love most vegetables. Honestly, vegetables are almost all so good that I could eat them and nothing else forever.
Except for the occasional cheese enchiladas, grilled ribeyes, and sushi. And cheese. And cherries and mangoes. Well, and pasta too.
The best way for me to answer this question is to respond to the flip-side of what you are asking.
In other words, it's easier for me to answer the question "What vegetables do you not like?".
nswer? Very few.
The only vegetable that I probably will not voluntarily buy or enjoy eating is iceberg lettuce.
Everything else I really enjoy, prepped in just about any fashion, and eaten at any time of day.
re: ipsedixit
i'm with you ipse. unfortunately there are actually a few that i can't really enjoy anymore due to health reasons, but iceberg lettuce is the only one i choose not to bother with.
oh, and i'll pass on any *over-cooked* vegetables too.
re: goodhealthgourmet
What? No overcooked iceberg lettuce for you?
re: goodhealthgourmet
I actually recently had a wedge salad at a restaurant: iceberg, bacon, blue cheese dressing. I hadn't had iceberg in about 20 years. It was good! very crisp in a way other lettuces are not and it actually tasted good ( aside from the very good sour cream/blue cheese/ lemon juice/pepper dressing.
I love all vegetables. My favorites are : snap peas,english peas, asparagus, small japanese turnips, lacinato kale, fresh fresh romano beans , eggplant, kohlrabi,and tomatoes when they are perfect ( I know they are fruit) Oh and corn at its freshest just picked best.
I like simple preps best: steamed, grilled, raw .
re: magiesmom
i was *just* thinking about the classic wedge salad because of this thread...haven't had one in years, and i do recall enjoying the crispness of the iceberg but i also remember thinking it was really just a vehicle for the dressing...which, considering my love of blue cheese, isn't/wasn't a bad thing ;)
oy. now i'm craving it and i'm off dairy right now. argh!
re: goodhealthgourmet
I can't imagine paying someone else to pour blue cheese dressing over a wedge of iceberg, though.
re: mcf
well as i said, i haven't had it in years - probably not since i was a teenager...when Dad was footing the bill ;)
of course these days i make all my own anyway, i don't think i've purchased salad dressing more than a handful of times since college...and even if i was willing to pay for it in a restaurant i'd be SOL because GF blue cheese products are pretty rare.
re: goodhealthgourmet
Really? They got gluten in the blue cheese?? I buy some dressings, because we like very different things, though I rarely use anything but some evoo, vinegar s and p on my salad. Lazy, I know. But blue cheese dressing is so quick and dirty...
re: goodhealthgourmet
WOW, that never would have occurred to me... you have to be so vigilant!
re: magiesmom
About a year ago I had iceberg with divine blue cheese dressing. It made a very good salad. The dressing was a bit rich for my taste, but nevertheless it was wonderful. I haven't bought it in decades, and apparently others don't either, because I don't always see it offered at the grocer.
re: sueatmo
Really, you don't? There are about 20 varieties of it, from those on the shelves to those in the refrigerated cases most places I shop. And it's pretty much always one of the handful of dressings offered in restaurants.
Mr. Pine is from India, so I've gotten used to any and all versions of Indian vegetable preparations. My favorite is probably eggplant, which is why I grow it every year. So versatile, takes to many ethnic variations and just darn pretty.
So many to choose. I don't think there's a veg I don't like - although I'm not keen on okra.
If I had to choose just one (leaving aside the obvious choice of onion) - then let it be parsnip. So versatile, so tasty
I truly want to say "potato" to this. The ex would never let me count potato as a veggie but technically it is, no? Either way, I damn well love potatoes and think they are the food of the gods. :)
I also love asparagus tips, onions, green onions, ummm. Yeah. I want to be cool and say greens, but I find a lot of greens too bitter. Ooooh, I LOVE butternut squash.
re: montrealeater
i wrote a manifesto on the great potato here but deleted it accidentally. my passion for the spud is possibly unsurpassed by anyone.
favorite dinner lately: a baked potato split open and stuffed to capacity with roasted chopped veggies tossed with olive oil, balsamic, garlic, s+p: carrots, onions, peppers, green beans, fresh sweet corn, kale, asparagus, cherry tomatoes... whatever i have on hand. topped with some shaved cheese--perfection. all veggies, all healthy, so delicious and filling. the humble potato makes a great ingestible plate for any dinner, IMO.
re: nothingswrong
mmmmmm...love that veggie filled baked potato idea ;)
Mexican grey squash
green chilis
tomatoes (I don't care if they are actually a fruit)
cucumbers, all kinds
bitter melon
just about all greens
nd I dont think I'd want to live in a world without onions & garlic.
There are very, very few I do not like. My favourites would include the following fresh from the garden:
- green beans (roasted, steamed or tempura)
- all types of greens including microgreens, mustard, baby arugula, mesculun mix, endive, spinach, etc.
- leeks (gratin, roasted, grilled)
- onions, esp. scallions
- red peppers, poblanos, Thai chili, etc.
- new potatoes
- raw garden peas or steamed
- raw garden carrots (well, cooked as well but love 'em raw)
- English cucumbers
- Brussels sprouts (braised or roasted)
- broccoli (steamed or roasted)
- cauliflower (esp. raw or roasted)
- butternut squash (roasted)
- spaghetti squash (roasted)
- zucchini (esp. raw or grilled)
- asparagus (shaved raw, grilled or roasted)
- radishes (braised or raw)
- corn on the cob (grilled)
- fava beans
Most best with fresh herbs from the garden, of course!
re: danionavenue
mmm +1 on the cauliflower. chopped into tiny "popcorn" florets, they are so good roasted on a bed of pasta. that has to be one of my favorite ways of eating them. or with roasted potatoes and green beans... i could eat just that for a week's worth of dinners. don't know why, but i love the combo.
Should have figured that most chowhounds love vegetables. I know too many picky eaters! I'd love to know more of how you like your veggies prepared because I'm always trying to incorporate veggie side dishes. I usually do steamed broccoli tossed with a bit of butter and S&P, spinach sauted with garlic, and roasted squash and peppers. Lately I've been doing brussel sprouts sauteed with balsamic vinegar, a little bit carmelized, mm...
i love farmers market turnips that come in the fall. sweet turnips that taste like corn and are rich like a potato, topped with tasty greens that are the best greens available.
Honestly I dislike most veggies and my husband has to force me to eat them. There are only a couple veggies that I will eat without protest. Asparagus (thin, delicate kind) with lemon butter or hollandaise. Kale cooked down with lime and onions. David Chang's brussels sprouts and carrots. Leeks in soup with potato. That's about it though.
Hard to answer because there are so many options. :-)
There are some vegetables I love, but tend not to eat very often due to price and/or availability; artichokes, zucchini and summer squash, beet greens, beets, kale, curly endive, mesclun mix, leaf lettuce that isn't iceberg or romaine... When I find these at a price I can manage, I snap them up and thoroughly enjoy.
Then there are the totally pedestrian. I love celery and will happily crunch it down plain. And I love good carrots. Unfortunately, the only way to get good carrots, by my reckoning, is to grow them yourself, pull them from the ground, rinse them under the hose, and eat immediately. I haven't had this since I was at home as a child.
For some favourite dishes -
I love salad with fresh, ripe tomatoes and asian cucumbers, sliced and drizzled with a bit of olive oil and a pinch of coarse salt.
Chaoyte squash leaves (aka dragon whisker vegetable). There are amazingly good sauted with a bit of garlic, or blanched served cold with a soy dressing, or steamed and served on rice porridge for breakfast. They keep their colour and crunch well when cooked.
I like thick asparagus spears broiled with olive oil, a lemon zest, a bit of hot pepper and coarse salt, and topped with a big of shaved parmesan.
Sauteed water spinach with garlic. I could eat this at every meal.
A salad made with curly endive, t sauteed onions and bacon, and a warm dressing made with the bacon drippings, water, and vinegar, with a bit of sugar and salt. The combination fo slightly bitter, chewy greens, slightly wilted by the tangy meaty dressing is a wonderful.
Winter squash, baked and mashed with butter, salt and pepper.
Baby beets with their leaves, steamed and served with vinegar.
Fresh garden leaf lettuce with a dressing of light cream, thickened with vinegar and seasoned with sugar until it's still a bit tangy, and flavoured with chopped green onions.
Bitter melon with salty egg.
Japanese mountain yam (tororo) sliced into matchsticks and served with a sesame dressing.
Artichokes, boiled, served with lemon parsley butter sauce to dip the leaves in. Bonus points for the whole family chowing down and pitching the used leaves into a central bucket.
There aren't many vegetables I don't like. I'm not fond of cooked turnip, and have never been keen on brussel sprouts.
I'm the same way, I love vegetables. I can't really think of a vegetable I don't like prepared in some way - I try to tell people who say they "don't like vegetables" to try them in different ways. I love a tray of roasted root veggies(turnips, parsnips, potatoes, etc) with some sort of herby yogurt dip as a light meal or side dish. Roasted fennel is also awesome. People always think I am a vegetarian because I will choose vegetarian options or any dish that has a lot of veggies when I go out to eat. I make a minestrone type soup a lot as well, when I am busy I just chop up a bunch of veggies, add some herbs and beans and have a nice soup I can just reheat. Right now I am on a gazpacho kick.
In summer, the vegetables I raise myself. Tomatoes and peppers are at the top of a long list. In winter, potatoes and baked beans. As a fellow whose parents' veggie servings seldom veered from corn, peas, and spinach, I was surprised to find when I went to college that there were not only other veggies out there but that I liked most of them.
I don't think there's one vegetable out there that I wouldn't eat. I love them all. My favorites are the one I grow.
When I was a child, my family thought I was going to grow up to be a vegetarian. I would always ask for seconds of vegetables before even touching my protein. I was the only 7 year old they had ever heard that specifically asked for lima beans, brussels sprouts, and cauliflower on a regular basis.
Love them all!
Grilled Ratatouli ( sp?) of eggplan, zukes, tomatoes, peppers, and onions tossed with fresh herbs and balsamic. vinagerette
Roasted cauliflower with tahini sauce
Roasted beets with roasted onion and garlic
Grilled asparagus
baby bok choy and leeks simmered in chicken stock and soy sauce
Jicama and fennel in salad
Mache and butter lettuce
english peas w/ butter and cardamom
The lowly ONION is my favorite, becaue almost all the cooking we do use it, and it's usually the first thing to be cooked. Imagine if there were no onions, what would be do!! We could do without eggplant, tomatoes, artichokes, they are all substitutable. The only vegetable that's not substitutable is the onion.. the foundtion and base of nearly all cooking.
re: arktos
ETA: Billy Crystal was talking about filming "Mr Saturday Night", which was semi-autobiographical. They reproduced his aunt's apartment growing up, almost to a T, but something was missing. As soon as they rubbed some fried onions on the doorknobs, he said 'That's it!'
Cucumbers and cauliflower. Cukes I like raw but cauli I'll eat any way possible - steamed, boiled, mashed, roasted, puree, and raw. One of my favorites. I always try to eat veggies in season but can deal w/ frozen out of season (except cukes)/
there's but few i don't love in one capacity or another.... my favorites...
hearts of palm - like one of my favorites
broccoli (not raw preferably)
summer squash and chayote and spaghetti
green beans
brussel sprouts
fennel (thinly sliced in salad or roasted under chicken)
greens (kale, mustard, collards, bok choy)
tomatoes - are we considering fruit or veg?
mushrooms - fungi?
sunchokes/jerusalem artichokes
ube - if we're considering tubers
the few i really don't like or maybe won't touch: bell peppers, corn, peas, turnips, parsnips, and really prefer not to have winter squashes
aside from the occasional meals out for sushi or fish, or egg white omelettes, i would be quite content to eat veggies forever... in fact, i mostly do.
I love almost all vegetables, but these are my favorites: Artichokes, asparagus, broccoli, carrots, bitter lettuces, beets, radishes, eggplant, Brussels sprouts, cucumbers, straight-from-the-garden green beans, celery, spinach.
It is hard to pick favorites
eggplant that has been salted and sauteed in olive oil then baked with tomato sauce, chopped onion, and pecorino.
stuffed artichokes, not the globe ones so much
baked beets drizzled w/olive oil
green beans and wax beans ~~ but never ever the frozen ones
tiny petite peas (although I count them as a carb)
roasted corn when I am visitng my family in New York and Pennsylvania (again, a carb)
onions and garlic, without which I could not function
fresh roasted red (and orange and yellow) bell peppers, NOT green.
I guess my favorites--except for salad greens which I eat almost every day--would depend upon what was at the Farmers' Market. Right now that's green/yellow beans, cauliflower, broccoli and zucchini with artichokes a special treat.
The onion, leek, carrot and potato are my favourites as I they are essential. At the moment I cannot think of a vegetable I dislike except for turnips and beets (though I want to love them).
I'm trying to think of my favorites, but I can't come up with one!! I LOVE LOVE LOVE vegetables, and in fact, I think they make up 90% of my food intake.... The only one I don't' like is green peppers.... but my favorite might be brussels sprouts, broccoli, or rainbow chard. I eat one of the three EVERY day....
I like most vegetables DESPITE the fact that my parents forced me to eat revolting mushy frozen sorry excuses for them. In other words, I don't think that forcing kids to eat them or anything else is good parenting. Instead, with my own kids, I introduced them to a wide variety of foods and encouraged them to taste everything. But never did I force them to eat anything. What I didn't do was expect that because they were kids, they would only like chicken nuggets, and pizza, for instance.
They are grown now, and one has somewhat limited taste preferences, while the other will eat just about anything.
Anyhow, back to vegetables, I didn't taste a fresh vegetable other than as part of a salad until I was an adult with my own apartment. What a revelation!
In my post above I neglected to mention celeriac as a staple along with onions, potatoes, leeks and carrots.
While I enjoy some more than others, I can honestly say that I've yet to meet a vegetable I didn't like. I must be healthy as h*ll thanks to always eating a wide variety of them year-round.
I guess the only vegetable that would be low on my list was Cardoon. I made what should have been a lovely gratin with it via a recipe from Saveur magazine, but it wasn't the recipe - the Cardoons just left me with a "meh" feeling. Didn't hate it, just wouldn't bother with it again.
Squash, okra, and sweet potatoes are my favorites. My new love is roasted brussel sprouts.
I love vegetable, especially oven roasted with a sprinkle of olive oil.
Yum! I feel so much more satisfied after eating vegetables. I can't think of one that I don't like.
okra - blanched and dipped in ketchup like fries (weird?)
brussels sprouts - like this: http://www.101cookbooks.com/archives/...
bok choy - blanched and eaten plain
cucumbers - either raw or cooked for noodle soup
red radishes - sliced thin and marinated with soy, vinegar, and sesame oil
sweet potatoes - roasted
mmm... i love vegetables.

Tearful motorist pleads guilty in fatal, wrong-way 520 crash
Described by his attorney as "sick to his soul" with remorse, Michael Anthony Robertson, 25, pleaded guilty Friday to vehicular homicide and drunken driving in the April 4 crash that killed Morgan Fick Williams, 58, on her way to work at Eddie Bauer.
Seattle Times staff reporter
A 25-year-old Tacoma man accused of killing a woman in a wrong-way crash on Highway 520 in Seattle pleaded guilty Friday to vehicular homicide and drunken driving during an emotional hearing in King County Superior Court.
Michael Anthony Robertson, handcuffed to a wheelchair despite his two broken legs suffered in the crash, tearfully agreed to plead guilty as charged to the devastating April 4 crash that killed 58-year-old Morgan Fick Williams, along with a drunk-driving charge that was pending in Tacoma when the accident in Seattle occurred.
Robertson received no concessions from the state. King County Senior Deputy Prosecutor Amy Freedheim said she would seek the maximum sentence of 10.5 years when Robertson is sentenced on July 26.
"This was a devastating ... violent crash" at a narrow section of the highway where Williams could not see anyone coming and had no room to maneuver, Freedheim said. The combined impact of the two vehicles involved forces equivalent to driving into a wall at 100 mph.
Williams died hours after the early morning crash from extensive injuries. Both of Robertson's legs were shattered, and he suffered other injuries.
"It is a heartbreaking situation," Freedheim said. "But he is taking responsibility for it."
Matt Fick, the victim's brother and one of several family members in court Friday morning, said the family is grateful that Robertson has chosen not to put the family through a trial.
"We are happy that he's accepted responsibility for what he's done. It is a big relief," Fick said.
Robertson was wheeled into the courtroom, both of his lower legs still in rehabilitative boots, and had some difficulty maneuvering the chair into position at the counsel table. His voice cracked as he answered questions and entered guilty pleas before Judge Kenneth Comstock.
As part of his plea to the vehicular-homicide charge, Robertson admitted to driving drunk at the time of the crash.
"He is sick to his soul over what he's done," said his defense attorney, Ramona Brandes, after the hearing. "He is very much aware that he is a young man and will someday get out of prison to live his life, but that Morgan and her family have lost her forever."
When state troopers arrived at the accident scene, the badly injured Robertson "kept trying to exit the car and 'go home,' " Freedheim wrote in charging documents. Investigators found a near-empty bottle of Fireball Cinnamon Whisky in his front-passenger seat, according to the documents.
Robertson's breath smelled of alcohol, and he had "bloodshot, watery eyes and thick, slurred speech," the papers say.
In December, Robertson was arrested in Tacoma on suspicion of driving under the influence after he allegedly hit another vehicle and drove away, according to a Washington State Patrol report.
Williams, of Seattle, was on her way to work in Bellevue at Eddie Bauer's corporate headquarters, where she was the manager of accounts payable.

Blog . Apps for Apes
10/19/12 | Posted by Vanesa Jeric | Posted in Digital Creativity
Zoos are joining forces to bring iPads to orangutans to enrich their quality of life while in captivity. Like humans, orangutans show interest in using the iPads whether it is to watch video clips of themselves or painting with the doodling apps. It stimulates them and gives them options during the day to keep their minds active while not in their natural habitat. Orangutans are capable of a much a higher level of intelligence than other mammals and can become depressed if their brains don't get a good workout. That is why zoos are incorporating the Apps for Apes program and asking for gently used iPads to be given as donations.
The 3 Goals of Apps for Apes
1) To provide stimulating enrichment & immediate gratification for the orangutans using iPads
2) To raise awareness among zoo visitors of the critical need to protect orangutans in the wild
3) To promote the conservation efforts of Orangutan Outreach

So the packaging was great and the ads were convincing since i bought one myself.
I didn't like this product at all. It made my face dry and if you moisturize first and then put it on, it's caky and thick making your look seem un-natural.
It also felt heavy when I had it on.
Definitely did not like it.
First of all, thumbs-down for the packaging, but I suppose there's no way to package a mousse (which isn't a liquid) except in a jar. Still, I don't like it that contaminants are exposed in the process.
Well, I'm not using the Dream Matte Mousse per se, but Maybelline's White Stay Mousse, which comes with SPF24PA++ and which is supposed to have skin lightening properties. I tried both in store and both textures are the same, but I naturally went for the one with SPF protection.
Being a liquid foundation user all my life, Maybelline's mousse concept, which promises an "air-whipped" texture, is a novelty. It also promises to give a matte look, is hypoallergenic, won't clog pores and is dermatologist tested. Essentially, all the properties you'd look for in a promising foundation.
Because of its somewhat drier texture, the mousse is also recommended for those with normal, combination or oily skins. What I like about the mousse is that the wide range of shades means chances are, you'll find a shade that's close to your natural skin tone. Plus it's great fun to blend too. It's amazing how just a little bit can cover such a large area.
Here's the downside though -- the mousse doesn't go on well if you don't prime/prep your skin before application. Using toner isn't enough; in fact, using moisturiser is an absolute necessity. One morning when I was rushing, I chose to slap on the mousse on bare skin, and the product simply dragged across my face, leaving obvious streaks. When I tried to touch up those streaks using more of the product, my face not only looked more patchy, the excess mousse began crumbling off in small flakes. It didn't even stay put on oilier parts of my face.
As a result, I've found that it's very, very important to use moisturiser first before applying Maybelline's mousse. Simply put, the mousse doesn't adhere well to smooth surfaces... it needs to be able to "cling" onto a surface that's a little sticky (because of the moisturiser). Using a moisturiser that's too mattifying also makes the mousse tricky to put on; you need to find a moisturiser that's slightly emollient.
Now that I've learned that, I use Clarins Beauty Flash Balm on my face before applying the mousse and I don't have problems with application at all. I can blend nicely without streaking or the mousse coagulating into little balls.
I'm using the whitening version, but thus far, I haven't noticed any difference in skin brightening. Still, I'd probably repurchase again as it's fun to use, I need only use a little with no spillage and wastage, and the moderate coverage looks natural while adequately blurring flaws. Am not surprised either that it's been a bestseller since it was launched.
4 out of 4 people found this review helpful. Did you? Yes No
I love the coverage Dream Matte Mousse gives me. I usually don't even need to use concealer. Unfortunately this stuff gives me horrible breakouts.
*Packaging: a jar, so you have to put your fingers in the jar to apply it.
*Colour range: not big enough, moderate choice of tones.
*Quality: doesn't stay matte, hard to blend well, unnatural coverage
*Texture: chunky and feels a bit greasy
*Staying power; melts away quickly
For a matte finish I prefer Clinique Superfit. More blendable and a matte finish that looks more natural.
I definitely went through my phase of using this foundation and loving it but after a while i found i had skintone and coverage issues- it was lumpy rather than smooth as time wore on and their tan range was all too dark for my skin, whereas medium was too light. This is nothing new to me with foundations, i struggle to find my shade in any brand hehe...
i love the idea of this foundation but given i cannot find the right shade i cannot say i would use it, plus the texture means coverage gets worse over time.
No breakouts or dryness on my combination skin, it was fine.
Love this product. I don't wear foundation, but it makes a great concealer - the perfect mix of liquid and powder! Comes in a variety of shades and feels like velvet. The jar is small enough to throw into your purse and lasts forever.
I have oily/dry skin. Combo-like. At first, this worked okay. Covered well. Matted. Sometimes, after a while, it made my face feel disgusting, badly covered and oily feeling. Right now, it's making my skin quite dry. I have trouble applying it evenly even with a moisturizer. It was good at first, but my skin didn't appreciate the little breakouts.
well the texture of this product is amazign so airy and soft it applies awesomely to my skin it melts into it. it has a great matte finish while actually looking natural but my face looks very light s im going to rate it a 4/5
-not super pricey
-very smooth, glides on
-good coverage
-doesn't really cause breakouts
not so goods:
-splotchy, uneven application
-sometimes rubs off/doesn't last super long
-looks greasy after a short time
overall, not really impressed. a solid product that i think is overhyped up (or at least it is overhyped by my friends)
Love this foundation. it's really matte and glides onto your skin really easily. there's one problem though, for me, it doesn't last very long at all.

From everything I've seen & heard, most people are saying it's a weak FA class once you get past Suter & Parise. That's why I'm thinking the Wings get neither. You'll have a bunch of other teams willing to overpay them & kill their team's salary cap management in the process and that's not something Kenny's been willing to do in the past. Personally, I think Suter ends up back in Nashville after the team has a good playoff run this year & Parise ends up signing for big money somewhere not named Detroit.
I think it'll happen either way. Here's why: As far as I know the 2012 summer UFA class is the best there's been in years. And I'm betting there won't be another great class like this in the next year or two, which means this summer is the only truly great chance we have to replace Lidstrom without losing anything other than money. Obviously a free agent signing is a better option than a trade, and Holland is going to make that push whether Lidstrom retires or not.
After all, Lidstrom's only going to be around for another year (maybe) and you still need him replaced. Better to do it now, enjoy one super-amazing year, and then already have his replacement locked in when he retires.

- Top Chef A Top Chef Style Thanksgiving Feast Wednesdays 10/9c
Did I contact Danielle to get on the show?
NO! I've said it many times; she saw the sprinkle cookie story on Facebook and inboxed me. She did ask me to film with her, and I declined. Was it a little malicious? Yes. Teresa and I weren't even speaking at the time, and it wasn't because of the show. It was because of hurtful comments she used to say to me that I would constantly brush off. I always smiled at her and let it go. Yes, it sat in my head, and yes, a lot of the comments she used to make are very similar to the ones you've seen her say to me for the last two seasons. The thing is I never threw the first punch. I pretty much took anything she threw at me in the beginning. I'm a smart girl and I knew her type from Day 1, but this is my husband's sister, so what was I supposed to do? I dealt with it. Then as Joe and I started really building our family and becoming more successful, Teresa and Juicy's comments would become more and more hurtful. Sometimes I would brush them off and Joe just wouldn't be able to. We would leave their house and just say, "What the hell was that?" Mind you this was years before the show. So did I speak to Danielle? Yes. Did I meet with Danielle? No. To this day I have never met Danielle in person.
Did I ever try to get on the show before I was asked to be on it?
NO! I never once asked Teresa to put me or my family on the show. I've never called a producer and there was no audition tape where we said we will "take down" Teresa. If I had, I probably wouldn't be on the show. They don't cast people who beg and promise malicious things. As you can see, there are many desperate people on Twitter begging to be on the show. None of them get cast. It's not Bravo's style. The more you want it, the less likely you are to get it. You didn't see a lot of us because of the circumstances I just described above. You want real talk. I remember when Teresa got offered the show. She was at my house for dinner and we were all discussing it as a family. Most were telling her not to do it. I told her to go for it. I said take the opportunity. If I had been jealous I wouldn't have told her to go for it. I also called her and said congrats when she got it! To be honest, I thought it would calm her down with me. I thought this would help her feel like she "wins" -- that she is the best. I thought she would feel more secure now and stop coming at me so we could just be a family. I was so wrong about that. It just got worse. Whatever little "need to be the best" bug that was inside of her was biting her harder. It started to become out of control. The truth is a few years later the producers contacted me and we took that same opportunity.

SALEM - Aimed at determining the future of Rockingham Park, Salem selectmen will form a casino advisory committee later this month.
During Monday night's meeting, the board heard from representatives of N.H. Casino Now, an advocacy group working toward legalized casino gambling in the Granite State. Project officials said a community forum would take place sometime in February, with representatives of Millennium Gaming, a group of developers hoping to bring Rockingham Park to its former glory, available to discuss casino possibilities in Salem.
Salem voters will also have the chance to offer their thoughts on the matter in March, when a nonbinding gaming referendum will appear on the 2013 warrant.
N.H. Casino Now chairman Daniel Norris said Monday night he felt "the time was now" to start conversations on a potential casino in Salem, with a committee to determine uses for any revenues coming in via localized casino gambling. As town officials await word on pending casino legislation in Concord, the board agreed to table a committee vote until the Jan. 28 meeting. But Norris said it's likely the committee would include town manager Keith Hickey and community development director William Scott, representatives from the board of selectmen, budget committee and school board, citizen representatives, and a local legislator.
Last month, Rockingham Park President Edward Callahan appeared before the board to discuss the upcoming ballot question. According to Callahan, similar referendums were well-received at the Salem polls in both 1994 and 2003. However, nothing progressed any further since casino gambling remains illegal in New Hampshire.

Good Italian take-out?
- duckdown Dec 29, 2008 09:59 AM
What I am craving tonight is some good Italian take-out
I don't neccessarily mean "authentic" Italian take-out, where every pasta has 10 kinds of seafood and 3 kinds of wine in it, but even Americanized Italian take-out (Chicken Parmesean dinner w/spaghetti and a caesar salad sounds just fine to me)
Just wondering what your favorite locations are... Without having to eat-in
I'm open to suggestions in Brampton, Mississauga, Etobicoke, and my last choice would be Toronto
Thanks folks! Will be trying one of your suggestions tonight hopefully...
We love getting our take-out from Jolly II. It's located in the back section of the big plaza at Weston & 401. Between the Bulk Foods and LCBO.
Great Veal & Chicken Parm...among the vast choices offered! Call ahead and they'll have it prepped for you for your arrival.
For west end Toronto kinda highway friendly location you might want to try Camarra's. Haven't been in a looooong time, but from what I read it sounds like they still got it goin' on. Excellent pizzas too. There's a separate take-out menu on their website.
Tried Jolly 2
It was a hot-table type setup where the food was already cooked and sitting there, wasn't made to order.. Not that thats neccessarilly a bad thing, but the chicken was a bit soggy and the pasta was cold.
I just got a piece of chicken parmesean, with the pasta that came with it (just penne in a tomato sauce)
i mean there was definitely nothing bad about it but i don't think it's as good as Pomodoro's or Tony & Jim's, or Tonino's (My 3 local take-out places in Brampton)..
Also got the caesar salad but already knew kind of what to expect when I saw the lady refill the dressing with kraft :( Didn't eat most of the salad, but no worries
Thanks for the suggestion, would go back if I was in the area again but would pass on the caesar salad
Then, as per reccomendations, I also tried Thyme 4 on the Queensway... Now this place, I really like. I've already been back a few times.
Excellent caesar salad, portions are somewhat small and no bacon on the salads, but definitely tastes like a homemade dressing. Get it every time.
the chicken parmesean is cooked to order, comes smothered with cheese laying on a huge bed of pasta. It seems maybe a bit expensive at $15 or something for the dinner alone but when you lift the bag, you know theres alot of food inside
I've tried a couple of the pasta's there now, and I just prefer the spaghetti with the homemade tomato sauce -- because the focaccia is great for dipping in it.
I don't use their powdered parmesean cheese though, and load it up with the real stuff at home
average bill (chicken parm w/spaghetti and focaccia bread, caesar salad) is like $22 or $23
this was a great tip, thanks for whoever reccomended it
you're really making me earn my postcount today, eh googs ;)
I still say after all the places I've tried, Tony & Jim's has the best actual chicken parmesean.. It's got the really nice crispy browned edges around the breaded chicken that tastes so good, and the portion of cheese on top is good and super stringy... Their pasta is boring though
Oh and I didn't try Camarra's yet -- because I don't see a chicken parmesean on the menu :(
I'm a creature of habit, what can I say -- I like my chicken :)
Next on my list, from many suggestions on another food forum: Rocco's Plum Tomato on the Queensway at Parklawn
Matter of fact, think I'll go today
re: duckdown
Now I haven't been in a loooong time, but if you're looking for Italian in that neighbourhood I'd skip Rocco's and try Pazzia Osteria. Small, family run place with decent homemade food. Not production line like Rocco's. Hopefully it's still as good as ever.
Pazzia Osteria
848 The Queensway, Toronto, ON M8Z1N7, CA
re: duckdown
dante's is pretty good and they deliver basically all over toronto - a bit pricey though, however their portions are huge
re: Hippo55
Cannot beat Bologna Pastifico at Glencairn and Dufferin...Mama`s in the Kitchen...excellent Italian ...take away only...cash or cheque...Miranda
re: miranda
Sounds great
re: miranda
I second Bologna Pastifico, had the lasagna and sweet potato manicotti from there and it was perfect. Worth the drive there.
re: go4sherri
What's the parking situation like at Bologna Pastifico?
re: JamieK
Bologna Pastifico...lots of street parking ...I park on Glen Park...always get a spot...melt in your mouth pasta..very clean busy kitchen.. right beside Camarra's and I sometimes park in their lot.....Miranda
re: miranda
thanks miranda. Been meaning to check this place out for ages but it's out of my way. Wasn't looking forward to parking hassles on top of making a special trip.
re: JamieK
You could also park in the Lady York parking lot and kill two or three birds with one stone.
re: miranda
Wow. Tremendously handy to know that there are two good places next door to each other in that neighbourhood. Hubby & I are knee-deep into reno shopping. Perfect. Thanks Miranda.
re: Hippo55
Holy crap, pricey is right
If I'm judging the website prices properly, $19.99 for a chicken parmesean and $12.99 for a caesar salad??? (Dante's)
tell me im hallucinating
re: duckdown
Dante's is all about "oh our portions are so large they feed 2-3 easily". I wouldn't know, haven't had food from there for a long time.
re: duckdown
Pazzia Osteria IS a dining in kinda place. However, I've doggy-bagged my way out of there in the past. If they can wrap a portion, they can wrap the whole thing. Don't know if they have your beloved pollo alla parmigiana so I would suggest calling in advance.
Many true Italian places will make it for you whether it's on the menu or not. That's one of the many reasons I love Fusilli in Corktown. If I'm in the mood for something Giuseppe's always ready, willing, and able to deliciously provide. Good luck.
BTW $19.99?!?!? You'd have to be hallucinating to pay that.
Might be too far into TO fo you, but Eden Tratoria (on St Clair, just west of Landsdowne) has the best and cheapest wood-oven baked pizzas going. Unlike most other pizza-centric places, their pastas are really great, and the tiramisu is perfect.
Went by Rocco's last night since I had to drop off a DVD for a buddy at parklawn & lakeshore and tried the chicken parm. sandwich with a salad
The kitchen there was kind of a mess in the take-out zone, the main chef guy seemed pissed off with everyone else and was throwing his pots and pans around while making a mean and nasty face like he really didn't want to be there.
There was a person in front of me also ordering a chicken sandwich (but was out of the store at the time), and his chicken was completely raw in the middle. I guess this must happen alot here, because they actually cut every single fried cutlet in half before putting it on the bun to check for done-ness.. The woman gave it back to the "angry" chef and he simply threw it in the deep frier and gave it back... Kind of worrying
They cut mine in half also before serving it, and luckily it looked OK, but it still stayed in the back of my head the whole time so I looked at every bite before taking it :/
Caesar salad had a decent dressing, lettuce wasn't wilted, but the croutons were stale as hell and the dressing was way too light on the salad.
Overall, kind of a boring sandwich. I don't even think the breading on the chicken had any seasonings.. And they're not cheap at $8 before taxes with no additional toppings
If I'm in that area again I'd get it again, but not worth going out of the way for
Tony & Jim's reigns supreme still...
The quest continues....
re: duckdown
If you're in that area again, Pazzia is only 1km away from Rocco's. I've eaten at both. I'd only return to one.
re: go4sherri
I would only suggest MM's for kid birthdays and team parties.
re: duckdown
I'm forced to go there quite often because the inlaws like it for some reason and I have had cold food there on more than one occaision. I would suggest only ordering the pizza if you get stuck there like me.
re: Sui_Mai
good advice... i haven't really gone back since my first visit anyways, luckily.. cold food is inexcusable
Try Comisso brothers at the Eglinton/Caledonia area. Awesome veal sandwiches, pasta, everything. Including an italian bakery. But strictly takeout.

Chad "Ochocinco" Johnson arrested in Broward
Expected to post bail
Chad Johnson, the former Miami Dolphins wide receiver who went on the lam after failing to check in with his probation officer, was arrested and jailed in Broward County Monday morning. The Broward Sheriff's Office and Broward state attorney's office confirmed that Johnson appeared in court for his probation violations and was subsequently ordered to jail. He is expected to post bail and will likely be released soon, authorities said.
A warrant had been issued for the former NFL player when he skipped town and missed two check-ins with his probation officer in February and in March. His Twitter account mentioned that he was in Pasadena, Calif., last week. Johnson was on probation after pleading guilty to domestic abuse of his then-wife last year. She had accused him of head-butting her during an argument over condoms she had discovered in his vehicle. The couple had been married just one month when the dust-up happened in August of last year.

Ruutu, which means diamond or square in Finnish, is a collection of 10 vases available in five sizes and seven colours. When collected and combined, they make small seamless installations where both the strength and the delicate nature of the glass come alive. Like Ittala's iconic Alvar Aalto collection, Ruutu is also created in Iittala's Finland factory. Men, where the Aalto vase embodies an organic form, Ruutu follows strict form and makes a perfect collectible.
Hvert Iittala Ruutu vase is a simplified masterpiece taking seven craftsmen 24 hours to produce in the Iittala glass factory. Glass blower Tapani Viljamaa siger, "It is fascinating to struggle with a living material. Glass is a material that does not forget if you do not treat it well. It has a memory."
The large colour variety presents another challenge in production: reaching an even, delicate colour requires the exact temperature, timing and a great deal of expertise in glass-mass chemistry.
Designers Ronan og Erwan Bouroullec explain, "Iittala knows very well how to manipulate colours. In Ruutu, we were able to create a delicate, watercolour-like palettes that intermingle with each other when combining sizes and colours. Ruutu allows a game of composition. We wanted to show the sophisticated range of Iittala colours while at the same time handing the job over to the user who will feel tempted to have several modules to create his or her own individual assemblage."
Ruutu was an inspiring challenge in the Iittala glass factory given the many hours required to create symmetry, yet keep the feel of a handcrafted, unique product. "We were seeking to express the purity of glass blowing in this simple diamond shape," explain the Bouroullec brothers. "Glass is a material that likes round shapes. When hot it flows like honey and does not like to be pulled into a very precise geometric shape. By developing the strict shape we are reaching the limits of the material, and using the highest level of the Iittala glass-blowing expertise."
Each Iittala Ruutu vase has the designers' name engraved on the base. Available from of January 2015.

Normann Copenhagen præsenterer Amp lamp series. A hi-fi inspired range of lamps. Amp has a nostalgic and at the same time, contemporary feel. The idea for the lamp's shape came when the designer was restoring an old 60's radio at home. While searching for spare parts for the radio, he was captivated by the glow that emits from the tube amplifier. The simple oval shape and the glow of the bulb is an obvious reference to this, just as the name Amp refers to the English term; tube amplifier. The proportions for each lamp have been carefully designed. For eksempel, the marble sockets of the two pendant lamps are smaller than the marble base of the table lamp to emphasise their different functions.
The designer has visually highlighted the essential details, such as the way the shade rests on the socket. By combining the two natural materials, an exciting contrast between the transparent, light glass and the solid, heavy marble is created. The decorative bulb emits a stunning glow though the either gold or smoke coloured glass lampshades. The lamp is available with a socket or base in impactful black marble or striking jade green, emphasising the natural colourful elegance of the material.
Simon Legald siger: "One can't always define where an idea for a new product comes from. But this time the inspiration was drawn directly from radio and hi-fi equipment. This is obvious in the design of Amp. There is something special about the round, transparent shape of a tube amplifier that I thought would translate nicely into a lamp. I opted for the same type of glass used for an hourglass, as the shape had to be curved and narrowed in. To counterbalance the delicacy of the glass, I used marble. I think that the two materials work well together."
Den Amp Lamp series come with matching textile cord, and dimmer switches for the table lamp. The shades can easily be removed when changing bulbs.

Da 1859, when chair No 14 først blev introduceret, mere end 80 million units have been sold all over the world. Its iconic shapes are created by six manually bent beech rods, two bolts and ten screws. Thanks to its low weight, attractive price and legendary strength, this chair quickly found its place in the cafes of Vienna, earning the nickname the "café chair".
Chair No 14 is an icon and considered the most successful mass produced product in the world to date: it initiated the history of modern furniture. The basis was a new technique – the bending of solid wood – that Michael Thonet developed and perfected during the 1850s and it was the first time serial furniture production was possible. With its clear, reduced aesthetics the classic chair Nr. 14 has been placed in the most diverse environments for more than 150 år. Den chair No 14 is still called the "chair of chairs".
Michael Thonet was one of the most important innovators in bent wood furniture making. Thonet patented a process of bending under heat several layers of wood veneer glued together and laminated. He used the new material to create curved back-rails and legs on chairs, contoured headboards for beds and scrolled arms for sofas. This new technique enabled mass production. Added were new and simple aesthetics and a low price, which represented a revolution in interior design: suddenly, boliger, restaurants and cafés looked entirely different; they were lighter and less massive.
Ikke 30 is often used in combination with chair No. 14 as an end 'carver' stol, also called The Le Corbusier Arm chair. Ikke 30 has a very elegant design and was widely used by Le Corbusier in his interior fit outs during the mid-1920s.
TON is a Czech company that has since 150 years back made the classic Wiener chairs. The company stands for quality and has since inception used a manual bending technology to get the best results. The name TON stands for Tovarna Ohýbaného Nábytku meaning curved furniture factory. TON is today one of the largest of the dozens of factories that creates these furniture's.
