Venice and George Clooney's wedding!
George wasn't on the train we took from Milan to Venice, but he was spotted by by a couple in our party, near the Town Hall after the civil ceremony.

No matter what age you are, everybody needs similar things when trying to fall and stay asleep at night. We all need to feel safe, loved, comforted and tired at the end of the day to sleep deeply and peacefully. So how can you create these feelings for your little ones? Here are a few suggestions:
Get Enough Exercise
Being active and healthy throughout the day is important to both your waking and sleeping hours. Not only does exercise and good nutrition help you keep a healthy weight, increase your heart and lung health, reduce stress and help your self-esteem, but it also helps you sleep better at night. According to the National Sleep Foundation, most people sleep better and feel more alert during the day when they exercise for at least 150 minutes per week. Even this small amount of exercise resulted in a 65 percent improvement in sleep quality.
If your kids are having a hard time falling and staying asleep, look at their daily routines to see if they are getting enough exercise. Consider putting them in a sport, going for a walk after dinner or even playing an active game as a family.
Establish a Routine
Routines are important for people of all ages, but kids respond especially well to structure. You should establish a routine for bedtime just as you might for school, homework and meal times.
Start by dimming the lights and turning off any electronics two hours before bed. The lights and the electrical field given off by electronics can interfere with the production of melatonin, which is an important hormone for falling asleep.
Then, create a winding-down routine to help your child feel relaxed and sleepy. This might include taking a bath, reading a book or talking quietly. Especially for younger children, make sure to be an integral part of the routine—this will help them feel loved and secure, which will help reduce anxiety or stress during the night. For example, you can have your child pick out a favorite book and cuddle up while you read together.
Create a Conducive Environment
The sleeping environment can be a very important factor for helping your kids get a good night's sleep. Their rooms should be dark, quiet and comfortable.
Turn off any lights in your child's room including a TV, lamp or nightlight. If there are bright street lamps outside or if the sun comes in early in the morning, consider putting up dark shades or blinds to block out excess light. If your child is afraid of the dark, consider putting a nightlight in the hall that you can turn off once he or she is asleep or get one that turns off automatically after a certain amount of time.
Make sure the room is quiet so your child is relaxed and not distracted or stimulated. But, if the room is too quiet and your child is scared of noises the house may make, try turning on a fan, humidifier or a white noise machine. This little bit of noise may help your little ones feel secure so their minds can relax.
Finally, your child's room should be comfortable and relaxing. Invest in a soft bed, sheets, blankets and pillows. Give your child a transitional object such as a stuffed animal or blanket to cuddle with. However, don't overload your kid's bed with items, either. Make sure the room is slightly cooler than its normal temperature so your child does not get too warm or cold during the night.

OPP: Dating My Dad
by Slacker and Steve
posted May 27 2014 4:24PM
Yi! Today's OPP comes from Brandy:
Yi, I'm 24 years old and dating a 49 year old man. My family really wants to meet him but I haven't told them how old he is yet. They invited us over for dinner this weekend so they can finally meet him and I'm terrified. My dad is only 3 years older than my boyfriend and I'm not sure how he's going to take it. They have a lot in common so I really hope it won't upset my dad too much. Has anyone ever had to tell their parents they were dating someone so much older than them? How did you do it? Should I tell them before we go to the house for dinner?
Slacker says if his daughter did this he would freak out. He thinks she should definitely tell them before the dinner. He thinks this guy is an idiot. That situation will be so awkward. If his daughter brought home a 49 year old man he would think the guy she's dating is a perve. He asks if the guy has grey hair and if he does, then you can't just roll a man with grey hair as your boyfriend. He was 10 years older than his first wife. He asks what these two people have in common. How can they connect? This is not a connection. It is a fling. Do NOT bring him home.
Steve doesn't think it's that bad and says Slacker should let her be happy with someone who makes her happy. People can't help who they fall in love with, says Steve. He tells Slacker that they should congratulate this guy for landing a 24 year old.
What advice can you give Brandy?
I think she should tell her parents the age of her boyfriend the day before they go over there. That way it rips the Band-Aid off quickly and gives them a little bit of time to get over it. I think it's weird.

Vote '08
After campaigning on a promise to slash bureaucracy, National leader John Key has formed a government that creates at least a dozen new reviews, committees and task forces.
The new bodies include a Big Game Hunting Council demanded by UnitedFuture leader Peter Dunne as part of the confidence and supply agreement signed with National yesterday.
Others include a group to be set up by early 2010 to consider constitutional issues including Maori representation, part of the agreement with the Maori Party, and at least nine committees, task forces and reviews under the deal with ACT. These include a task force to progress work on a bill from ACT leader Rodney Hide aimed at cutting red tape for businesses and new funding to allow his party to commission research and hire consultants to contribute to National's programme though a leadership council with Mr Key.
Mr Key rejected suggestions that some of the groups, such as Mr Dunne's game council, do not sit well with his plans to call in all public sector chief executives for a review of every dollar spent.
"There will be some new bodies established and there will be some things that are disestablished over the course of the next three years, but it's my view, that by the time we get to the end of the three-year process, that you will have a leaner Government which functions in a more efficient way, and I wouldn't get hung up about one tiny little body."
Many of the groups set up under the deal with ACT are specifically designed to trim spending deemed wasteful. These include a yet to be determined number of task forces which will study spending in specific sectors, which Mr Key indicated were likely to be big-budget departments. Each task force would include private sector representatives and public servants. Their work would be overseen by a new Cabinet Expenditure Control Committee.
Mr Key accepted that the task forces could lead to some work being outsourced to the private sector, though they were also likely to identify areas that could be dropped altogether.
The deal with ACT also sees the creation of a special select committee to review the emissions trading scheme - including possibly examining whether human-induced climate change exists - and a "high-quality" advisory group to investigate productivity and report annually on efforts to close the wage gap with Australia by 2025.
The new Government will also set up a separate group to advise on changes to the Resource Management Act and an inter-party working group to study policies for improving choice in education.
Mr Dunne said his council would pick up work not covered by existing bodies such as Fish and Game, and would not be costly to set up. Work on establishing it began under Labour.
ACT, the Maori Party and UnitedFuture have agreed to give confidence and supply to National.
ACT: Leader Rodney Hide made local government and associate commerce minister and gets new regulatory reform portfolio, with a seat on a Cabinet committee studying public spending. Heather Roy made consumer affairs and associate defence and education minister. Both outside Cabinet.
* National to introduce a "three strikes" bill for worst violent offenders and support it to a select committee, but not promising to back it further.
* A special select committee to review emissions trading legislation, which will be deferred. Committee to consider alternatives, including a possible carbon tax.
* Task forces, which include private sector representatives, to undertake fundamental reviews of government spending in specific portfolios.
* Mr Hide's bill linking public spending rises to inflation and population increases will get National's support as far as a select committee, but no commitment to passing it.
* National to consult ACT on an advisory group on short-term changes to the Resource Management Act. Consideration to be given to more longterm changes, such as water allocation.
* A National-ACT working group to report on funding and regulating schools to increase parental choice and school autonomy.
* A top income tax rate of 30 cents in the dollar made is a medium-term goal.
THE MAORI PARTY: Co-leader Pita Sharples becomes Maori affairs and associate education and Corrections minister. Fellow co-leader Tariana Turia made community and voluntary sector minister and gets associate health and social development. The positions are outside Cabinet.
* National promises Maori seats will not be abolished without Maori consent. The Maori Party drops calls for entrenchment. A group to consider constitutional issues, including Maori representation, to be established by early 2010.
* National to review Foreshore and Seabed Act to ensure it protects Maori customary rights. The review to be completed by December 2009. If it finds the law should be repealed, National will ensure everybody's right to access the foreshore and seabed.
* National to work with the Maori Party to progress policy priorities in other areas where agreement can be found.
UNITEDFUTURE: Leader and sole MP Peter Dunne keeps revenue and associate health portfolios outside Cabinet.
* National to support public- private partnerships where these are the preferred option for major roads, including Wellington's Transmission Gully.
* National to vote for the first reading of a bill allowing income splitting for couples, but not committed to supporting it further.
* The Families Commission stays, but is likely to share administration with the Children's Commission to save money. Both bodies retain their independence.
* Capacity in private hospitals used to reduce elective surgery waiting lists.
* The Government to establish a Big Game Hunting Council as part of a national wild game management strategy.
* National acknowledges UnitedFuture's support for the further development of the SuperGold card, the voluntary sector and advancing the interests of the disability sector.
* National to progress strategy for the use of quality medicines, including the role of Pharmac.

Maybach Music Group leader Rick Ross may have fans waiting into next year for his God Forgives, I Don't solo album, however, the "Boss" has now announced plans to put together a new mixtape.
Although Ricky Rozay has not provided an exact release date, he announced the mixtape's existence following an overseas trip.
"South Africa was beautiful," he tweeted December 15th.
"Wrote an album worth of material there..my view was priceless."
"It's Official Drop'n New Mixtape!!! #RozayNewTap" (Rick Ross' Twitter)
Last week, reports landed online claiming Ross now travels with an emergency health kit in light of experiencing two seizures earlier this fall.
Rick Ross will not be caught off guard in case he suffers another medical emergency — the rapper now travels with his own special medical kit, just in case the seizures strike again … TMZ has learned. As TMZ first reported, Ross suffered not one … but two seizures on the same day in October while traveling to an event. According to multiple sources, Ross wants to make sure he's prepared in case it happens again … and put together a kit that includes 3 different prescriptionmedications, vitamins, water and an inhaler. We're told Ross is serious about having the kit near him at all times … and often requires a member of his entourage to carry it around wherever he goes. (TMZ)
Recently, Ricky Rozay updated fans on his current health condition and said ample rest was needed for a full recovery.
"Coming out the hospital, you be ready to get back to work. I'm a grinder, I'm a hustler. That's the next order of business. You're so used to moving at 80 miles per hour. I gotta get rest now. Well, I'm supposed to. I try to. That's what it was. I'm blessed, man. I went in and had my MRI and everything came back straight. It was just a case of me being overly exhausted." (Sucker Free)
Placing health first, Def Jam Senior VP of Marketing Chris Atlas recently confirmed the label's decision to push back God Forgives, I Don't from its original December 13th release.
"I think we're all aware of his recent health issue, and based on some of the minor setbacks with that, we weren't able to confirm certain opportunities, because he physically wasn't able to deal with certain things at the time," says Atlas. "We want this to be his biggest album — we know it's going to be his biggest album — so we did not want to pressure him into releasing an album based on the sake of a date." (Billboard)

Homeland Security Department officials told lawmakers late last month that the agency's chief financial officer has always reported to the head of the agency, even though the DHS organizational chart says otherwise. If so, we hope the agency will update its organizational chart and we note that the chief information officer is still not quite so lucky.
It is important to understand why financial management matters. Having clean, auditable books is all well and good, but that is a byproduct of good financial practices. The real benefit is having accurate data that managers can use to make decisions about running their agencies and programs. It is an essential management tool.
That is also why the detail about the organizational chart is significant. Organizational charts, outside themselves, are not important. In many cases, they are a bureaucratic requirement. But, like budgets, they are needed because state an organization's priorities.
At a hearing last month, Janet Hale, DHS' undersecretary for management, said, "Of all the things we do in the department, charts may not be our strength." And with all due respect, nobody wants DHS to get good at organizational charts.
The Clinger-Cohen and the Chief Financial Officers acts stipulate that the CIO and CFO, respectively, should report to the head of the agency because lawmakers believed that IT and financial management are important to government operations and that they are priorities.
IT and financial management are not and should not be the mission of government agencies. Yet both are critical and essential to enabling agencies to accomplish their missions. That is why those posts deserve a seat at the table.
Also, we want to offer kudos to Rep. Todd Platts (R-Pa.), chairman of the House Government Reform Committee's Government Management, Finance and Accountability Subcommittee, who is largely responsible for the CFO change. Financial management and information technology are not sexy issues, and they do not garner votes in central Pennsylvania or elsewhere. Platts has been a force pushing DHS and the federal government to focus on financial management issues.

Feast on wallet-friendly pizza & wine at Thea's Pizzeria in Wynwood
Feast on wallet-friendly pizza & wine at Thea's Pizzeria in Wynwood
Thea's Pizzeria
1951 NW 7 Ave, Miami
The goods: Restaurateur Thea Goldman (Joey's) opens Thea's Pizzeria, a handsome new spot for pizza and wine adjacent to Wynwood's UM Life Science and Technology Park.
Ambience: The neo-industrial space is outfitted with molded black chairs, polished concrete floors and a striking Bisazza floral mosaic. The restaurant is currently open for breakfast and lunch and plans to roll out dinner in the next month.
The grub: Thin-crust pizzas and gourmet salads at moderate prices. Wines by the glass average $6, pizzas $11-$14, salads $7 and mains $16.
There's gourmet detail here: gratis Italian bread is made with Italian flour and buffalo mozzarella by a former baker at Mario Batali's Eataly; margarita pizzas blend cheese and tangy tomato sauce; and artichoke pizzas combine artichoke purée, grana padano cheese and fresh arugula. Salads include roasted beet with gorgonzola and walnuts; charcuterie boards carry prosciutto, salami and mortadella; and mains bring skirt steak and seared salmon. End on a sweet note with traditional canola, gelato and espresso granita.
Verdict: A wallet-friendly spot for thin-crust pizzas and Italian wine.

Maybe you have had bad experiences in the past while car shopping. You may just want to learn more about the process so as to become a better negotiator. When you know what to do, everything works out much better. Use this advice to get the car you deserve.
Do not allow yourself to get talked into a car you can't afford. A lot of people end up purchasing sports cars because they fell for the dealer's slick comments about how good they look driving it. Remember that the salesperson's goal is to earn a good commission, so he or she benefits when you are convinced to purchase a pricier vehicle.
Get your loan lined up before visiting the dealership. When you get a car loan at the dealership, it can take a really long time. If you walk in with a loan already, the entire process will be quicker.
Research any dealership you are considering before offering on a car there. You'll negotiate better if you know what they're able to offer you in financing and trade practices. If you check out any available customer reviews, you can avoid being ripped off.
You should always have someone go with you when going car shopping. Since they aren't the one making the final decision, they may be able to help you steer clear of a deal that isn't the greatest for you. They could be a parent, a friend, or a spouse.
When you're looking for a vehicle, think about how the fuel economy can affect you. For instance, you may want an automobile with a V-8 engine and the ability to tow. However, you should think about how much you will truly use that extra power.
Buying a car is thrilling, but challenging. Shopping for great automobile deals online can save you both money and time. There are many sites that allow you to comparison shop across a variety of makes and models. This helps you narrow down your choices, which can save you both time and money.
What is your absolute maximum expenditure permitted? This number should reflect the amount you want to spend and the value of whatever car you want to buy.
Sales Price
Don't talk about your trade in. Wait to discuss your trade-in until after you have negotiated the sales price of your new car. When a salesperson knows about your trade-in, he or she may factor it into the sales price, which can work against you.
Search online for great used car deals. You don't have to go to a car lot in person anymore. Try looking at Craigslist, eBay, or the local classifieds. You can save some money this way.
When you found a car that you'd like to look at, make sure to go over it well. Check for any dents and scratches on the exterior. Look on the inside for upholstery and carpeting issues. As soon as you leave the dealership, any problems you find will be your problem. You will be responsible for all chips, rips, scratches and window cracks.
The goal of a salesperson is to make the highest commissions. It might be obvious, but you might forget if the salesperson knows how to sell. Don't let them tack on expensive things you don't need. It is not uncommon for inexpensive cars to become costly through add-ons.
Once a new model of a car comes out, wait awhile before you buy one. If you try to get into one as soon as they are released, you will pay far more than you would otherwise. Wait a few months at least, and the hype will die down.
Educate yourself about incentives before embarking on the negotiation process. You must learn about bank fees, warranties, trade-in values, rebates, and other incentives. Knowing these incentives will provide you with the knowledge and confidence you need so that you can visit a dealership and obtain the best deal on your car.
Great deals never just appear. You have to look for them and you must know how to negotiate. You need to analyze the math they're doing, and you need to do your own too. Keep in mind what you've learned here to get started the right way.

Defense Management:
Stronger Oversight of Joint Service Imagery Processing System Needed
NSIAD-91-164: Published: Jul 26, 1991. Publicly Released: Jul 26, 1991.
Additional Materials:
- Full Report:
(202) 512-4841
Office of Public Affairs
(202) 512-4800
GAO reviewed the Department of Defense's (DOD) management of the Joint Service Imagery Processing System (JSIPS), focusing on whether: (1) the JSIPS program kept to original cost, schedule, and performance estimates; (2) DOD and the services fully considered user requirements in JSIPS design, development, and planned testing; (3) JSIPS program decisions were appropriately coordinated with closely related imagery programs; and (4) DOD exercised adequate oversight of program activities.
GAO found that: (1) JSIPS cost, schedule, and performance estimates changed significantly, causing a funding shortfall of $38 million and resulting in a restructuring of the contract; (2) JSIPS design and development efforts supported the individual services' needs rather than joint operations requirements; (3) the new contract reduced the number of JSIPS units to be delivered under full-scale development from three to two, delayed the planned delivery of the second JSIPS unit by 18 months, and voided the negotiated prices of production options in the original contract; (4) JSIPS design, development, test plans, and production schedules are not coordinated with closely related systems that will gather and transmit data for JSIPS; (5) the Office of the Secretary of Defense has not developed an integrated test plan and production schedule that would be binding on the individual services and would prevent the uncoordinated fielding of mutually supporting systems; and (6) top-level DOD officials have not received adequate and independent information to address such JSIPS problems as funding shortfalls, the failure to emphasize joint requirements, poor coordination with related systems, and inadequate management oversight.
Recommendations for Executive Action
Status: Closed - Not Implemented
Comments: DOD has not acted to ensure the adequacy and stability of future program funding or to make JSIPS a major acquisition program subject to review by the Defense Acquisition Board.
Recommendation: The Secretary of Defense should ensure that: (1) JSIPS program funding is adequate and stable; (2) the requirements of the theater commanders in chief for joint operations are adequately considered in JSIPS development and acquisition decisions; and (3) JSIPS and interrelated programs are adequately planned and coordinated to ensure that the combined systems are fully tested and concurrently available.
Agency Affected: Department of Defense
Status: Closed - Not Implemented
Comments: DOD has not acted to ensure the adequacy and stability of future program funding or to make JSIPS a major acquisition program subject to review by the Defense Acquisition Board.
Recommendation: To overcome the services' reluctance to participate in the JSIPS program and to improve program management and oversight, the Secretary of Defense should designate JSIPS a major acquisition program subject to review by the Defense Acquisition Board.

I'm driving to the states for the week and am wondering if anyone knows/has experienced issues bringing malt back?
I'll probably be bringing 100 lbs or so back with me (bag of pilsner, bag of marris otter for those who are curious).
I tried navigating the canadian border website and its horribly unclear.
After doing a lot of traveling across the border a couple years ago, I found that no two border crossings are the same. Some are much more strict than others, and it depends on if the guard is in a good mood or not. I don't know what to tell you, but be careful if you do.
I don't know the rules, but I'd think grains would be fine. Extract, on the other hand...
I bring 100 - 150 lbs of barley, at a time back from Montana to BC, There is a limit but the guys at our bumbelscum crossing had no clue what it was and wern't all that interested in looking it up. u can always call 1800 O CANADA and ask them who to ask, they'll usaly connect you for free( I got the qutoa for US chicken through them). You should be fine with that amount but its a free call to check.
I'm only guessing, but I think you'd be okay with malted barley because the seeds aren't viable. If you're trying to transport viable seeds of any kind you're in for a world of bureaucratic hurt.
Personally I would go for it.
Malt does more than Milton can / To justify Gods ways to man
-A. E. Housman (18591936). A Shropshire Lad , 1896.
Just to follow up, I called the Canadian Food Inspection Agency and Canadian Border Services.
The Canadian Food Inspection Agency had a bit of a hard time with the concept of a malted grain. I had to explain the malting process a few times. They later came back with the answer from a supervisor that there were no restrictions on me bringing it into the country because the barley was processed already.
Canadian Border Services just asked if it contained alcohol.
I'll update again once I've (hopefully) successfully made it accross with my bounty.

THINK the humanities are irrelevant or dead? The Chinese and Russians don't.
At a time when support for the humanities is in decline in the United States, countries with a reputation for crushing free speech are introducing Western-style, liberal-arts education to their universities.
Ironic? Yes. But their reasons for doing so are clear: The humanities and social sciences offer a clear competitive advantage in our increasingly interconnected world.

BVI approved manager regime extended to qualifying funds in recognised jurisdictions
The British Virgin Islands' (BVI's) approved manager regime for investment managers and advisers — introduced in December 2012 by the Investment Business (Approved Manager) Regulations 2012 — has had a successful first year, becoming increasingly popular for its straightforward and low-cost application process and 'lighter-touch' regulatory requirements.
The BVI has now introduced amendments with effect from 2 January 2014, pursuant to the Investment Business (Approved Managers) (Amendment) Regulations, 2013.
The amendments will allow investment managers or advisers approved by the BVI Financial Services Commission as an approved investment manager to take advantage of this lighter-touch regime to manage qualifying funds in a wide range of other recognised jurisdictions, including the Cayman Islands, Switzerland, Ireland, Luxembourg and the UK…

Hello Everyone!
My husband is a regular on here!
I am interested in getting him a kegging system for a present...
I don't know anything about this, any info/advice is highly appreciated!! I have found some things online for for thousands of dollars, unfortunately for us, that's not in our budget! He has mentioned before getting a min fridge and a conversion kit. He loves to home brew and would like to use it for that instead of bottling like he does now. The brew store he goes to said I get everything I need for $200 or so. We don't currently have a fridge for it have people tell me to go old fridge and also mini fridge.
Thanks in advance for any help!
There are a ton of different options for the fridge part. You can use a chest freezer with a temperature controller, a mini fridge as long as it is big enough, or a full sized fridge. If you are trying to do it cheap then keep out on craigslist, they pop up on there all the time. For all the components I would reccomend taking a look at http://stores.kegconnection.com/StoreFront.bok. They sell kits on there that have everything you need.
If you can pick up a CO2 tank, regulator, hoses and kegs from your home brew store, your husband can put it in an old fridge and use a finger tap until he collects the rest. Some people convert old freezers into fridges and some use fridges. Let him decide which one he wants to do. Just get the kegging equipment and if there is still some money in the budget give him the cash and let him work it out for himself.
Great advice! Thanks for the info! I knew this was the place to go by the way my husband talks about this website!!! Thanks so much! I appreciate hearing from people who have done it before and know first hand! Have a wonderful day!
Here is a good kit from kegconnection for 179$ they are a sponsor on this site . Ohh even though you buying for you husband be prepared for the marriage proposals.
and they will customize it to his specks. I would get at least 10ft lines and maybe ditch the party taps for shanks and faucets.
'The taxpayer: That's someone who works for the federal government but doesn't have to take the civil service examination.'- Ronald Reagan
Thanks Springer! Haha, that's funny!! Well, I love my beer too so it's like both our birthdays! Have a great day!
All he would need is a old fridge or chest freezer with a temp control.
if your husband is a regular on here, concider giving him a card offering whatever dollar amount you wish, and let him decide which way he wants to go. That way there is less risk in getting him a package that is different than what he wants. I know my wife doesn't have a clue what even went into the one we have.
+1 on the kit springer posted. Great entry level system, but I would personally recomend this one http://stores.kegconnection.com/Detail.bok?no=324 for only $20 more (2 regulators)
either of those kits will work with almost any system, and can easily be converted to a tower or door mounted faucets.
For a total system (new) you would be looking at arround $450+ or a decent used setup from craigslist could be found for as little as $200.

Weddings Simplified: Get The Quick Tips You Need To Know For The Perfect Wedding
You may have heard a lot of information from friends and family members about weddings but sometimes you need to learn tips from outside resources, like the tips in this article. The tips in this article should help you plan out your wedding day, so take some time to digest the information ahead.
As much as your wedding guests might like an open bar, don't spring for it if it doesn't fit in your budget. Open bars are always big hits at parties, but they aren't quite as fun for the person that has to pay for it. Put together a list of some popular mixed drinks and have plenty of beer on ice for your guests instead.
If you want a destination wedding, you should probably visit the location before or have someone do it for you. You can find agencies that offer this kind of services. You should do as much research as possible in advance so that you are not disappointed when you get there.
No matter how small your budget for your wedding might be, you need to hire a catering company. While they can charge quite a bit of money, they're well worth it. A wedding is chaotic enough. You don't need another thing to worry about. It should be a day you enjoy and remember forever.
It is okay to let loose at your wedding reception. Many people take their wedding day too serious and do not remember it is supposed to be a joyous occasion. When this happens, they look back at their special day with unpleasant memories. Laugh with your guests, and dance to upbeat music.
When planning your wedding, consider the flowers that you want to use. Some weddings have color themes and flowers can become costly when you are trying to match colors. Flower color depends on the season and if you are looking for a certain color of flower during the off season, it will be more expensive.
For an outdoor wedding, try to place your guests away from staring into the sun. The sun should be on your guests' backs so that they are not blinded while trying to watch you take your vows. You can also try planning your wedding where the sun will benefit you, by providing a beautiful sunset behind where you and the groom will be standing.
Consider hiring a travel agent to book traveling plans for your group of close family and friends. You want to take care of your loved ones, and make sure they get the best deal. With everything else that goes into planning a wedding, it's best to leave the travel details to an expert.
With all of the information you just learned you can now take some time to make some serious decisions when it comes to your wedding. You should have learned some insightful information that even your friends and family haven't told you about. So if you feel it necessary also be sure to share this article with people who you think would benefit from it as well.

Screaming at a Wall – Minor Threat
Especially as a teenager, I really loved punk music. Dead Kennedys, Bad Brains, Black Flag etc. In terms of the music and the sheer intensity Minor Threat are right up with those bands but songs like 'Guilty of Being White' and 'In My Eyes' meant that I never really connected with them in the same way. 41 more words

BYOD ignorant managers putting IT security at risk
Tablet vendors concerned with sales, not safety
"Ignorant" senior managers are putting their organisations at risk when it comes to the Bring Your Own Device (BYOD) culture.
That's the latest from information security company ECSC, which has described the moves into this "backward trend" as a "major set-back for information security".
The company cited a recent study by ISACA members, which found 23 percent of UK businesses are already allowing employees to follow the trend of using their own devices. It claimed the iPad had played a big role in this culture as well as fingering device manufactures who were "all for" the new way of working.
It said this was because it gave them a convenient entry into the business market with what was only ever designed as a consumer product. Their concern is sales, not ensuring that security is maintained, it claimed.
Ian Mann, founder of ECSC, said information security professionals all recognised the risks as devices outside of organisational control were a source of vulnerabilities.
He added these devices were "a route" for hackers to obtain confidential information, and this area is likely to be the next big cause of security breaches.
However, instead of banning these devices completely the company wants organisations to step back and "assess the risks".
It said that senior managers should look at what access employees had to company data through their personal devices, as well as understanding the risks and developing controls to exploit new opportunities without compromising information security.
Mann added that more communication between senior IT managers and high level staff who want to access information on their own devices, is key to keeping data safe.

Extension Watch: Better Bookmarking in OpenOffice.org with VisibleBookmarks
Productivity Sauce
Bookmarks can come in handy when working with long and complex documents, but the way this feature works in OpenOffice.org is not particularly intuitive. The bookmarks you add to the document are not visible, and you have to use the Navigator to view the bookmarks and jump to a bookmarked place in the document. The VisibleBookmarks extension offers a simple solution to the problem. Once installed, the extension adds a dedicated toolbar containing a couple of buttons. Press the Visible Bookmarks button, and the tool inserts a note for every bookmark in the document. The note contains the name and the text of the bookmark, which makes it easier to identify bookmarks in the document. As the name suggests, the Remove inserted notes button deletes all the notes (but leaves the bookmarks intact) once you're done. This simple solution is not necessarily the most elegant one, but it works. So if you find it difficult keeping tabs on your bookmarks, you may find VisibleBookmarks quite handy.comments powered by Disqus

Any tricks to melting a sharp cheddar for mac and cheese?
- TorontoJo Dec 29, 2006 02:19 PM
I make this very yummy mac and cheese recipe from epicurious:
But my cheddar cheese never seems to melt smoothly into the milk mixture. The end product is fine, but not quite as smooth as I would like. Is it even possible to get "real" cheese to melt completely smooth? This is going to be part of a comfort food New Year's Eve dinner, so I'd love any tips or tricks you have for this problem!
BTW, just back from a month in New Zealand without a computer... holy cow, I have a lot of Chowhound to catch up on!
welcome back.
I'm not an expert in this, by any means, but here are a few thoughts. Cheddar, alone, is tough to get silky smooth when melted. But blended, it can do quite well. Try a 1:1 ratio of cheddar and gruyere. Or, if you are doing a version that isn't so fancy, even a 1:1 or 1.5:.5 of cheddar to monterey jack really helps the texture.
Some recipes call for a cheese sauce to be made separately. Based on a tip a while ago on this board, I've started using a bit of guar gum (or xanthum gum) in cheese sauces to help it from breaking when heated. It helps thicken cheese sauces without needing a roux, and also prevents breaking. That same principle could apply to this, I think.
Ok, I just looked at your recipe... didn't realize it was a cheddar, blue cheese recipe. I don't have a lot of experience with blues when cooked. The blend of blue and cheddar might achieve what I'm talking about above, but not sure how blues do when melted...
You might try making a thin bechamel sauce and crumbling/shredding the cheeses into the warm white
sauce to melt. I've tried this with sharp cheddar
and it turns out fine.
Blue cheeses can be tricky, some melt smoothly, others turn into a curdled mess. My go-to for a nicely creamy melted blue is gorgonzola dolce. It makes a wonderful sauce just mixed with cream and tossed over freshly cooked pasta so I'm sure it will be killer in mac & cheese.
As mentioned already, bechamel will make any cheddar into a smooth cheese sauce. Just be careful not to overheat the cheese which can turn it into stringy curds.
The recipe does call for a bechemel. I have never had any trouble making mac and cheese with sharp cheddar using basically the same technique called for in your recipe.
IMO the keys are melting the cheese into the sauce off the heat -- not even on low and whisking it constantly.
How is it "not smooth" for you?
re: C. Hamster
Hmm... ok, I'll try it off heat. I think I usually kept it on low while whisking. When I say "not smooth", I mean that it's a little bit grainy. It's not that noticeable after it's baked, so it's not the end of the world, but I'll try the off heat whisk and add some gruyere and see if that helps. Thanks, everyone!
re: TorontoJo
Take the bechamel off the heat and stir in a handful at a time. Then wait until each handful completely melts before you add the next handful.
actually, you could probably just solve this problem easily by tossing the shredded cheddar into flour, shaking it all off, and THEN adding to the milk.
allows it to thicken,not separate, etc.
Thanks, everyone. I ended adding some gruyere to the recipe and took the bechamel off heat before stirring in the cheese. It turned out perfectly. Cheers and a very happy new year!
Try this: use any cheese or cream sauce as a base, place in a double-boiler-always avoid direct heat when working wih solid cheese. Grate or slice the cheddar into the base and stir until smooth. You can add milk or water if you find the sauce is too thick.
If you use evaporated milk you don't need a bechamel or any flour (unless you want to use it). Learned this from Cooks Illustrated. Another trick, if not using evaporated milk, is to include a little velveeta or other "processed cheese food", which have ingredients that help cheese melt smoothly. Don't tell anyone what you did!
