Richard Branson has revealed that he wanted to sign IndyCar Series winner Danica Patrick for F1 2010.
Branson's Manor GP-run Virgin Racing F1 team confirmed it driver line-up last week, when Lucas di Grassi was announced as the partner for ex-Toyota man Timo Glock.
However, speaking to British tabloid newspaper, The Daily Star, Branson added that he would love to have put a woman on the grid in 2010 to compete against the likes of 2009 F1 World champion, Jenson Button.
"I would have loved to have had a looker like Danica drive [for us]," he told the 'paper. "She is not only good and quick, she's a stunner.
"I believe there is room for women drivers in F1."
Virgin Racing F1 team principal, Alex Tai meanwhile echoed those thoughts – although he doesn't believe there is a female driver, other than Patrica, that is up to the task at the moment.
"There isn't really a female out there right now who could do it," he continued. "This is a really physical and exhausting sport and they would find it hard to cope."
So do you think there is a place for female drivers in F1?

Former University of Mary Washington President William Frawley should stop blaming others
Originally, Mr. Frawley blamed his ills on an overdose of cough medicine. In the Post piece, he transformed that substance, Messiah-like, to wine--which, he suggests, mixed disastrously with his allergy prescription. Mr. Frawley, a linguist, in the Post uses the vocabulary of the health profession--"no apparent consideration for my illness," "undiagnosed depression," "[n]ew heart problems and allergies," "stress," "my history of Wolff-Parkinson-White syndrome, an electrical problem of the heart," "[my] still-sedated state," "the feeling that I was about to have a breakdown or a heart attack," etc.--to evade personal responsibility for his reckless actions.
Even his two dramatic car accidents he half writes off to mere misfortune: (1) In Fairfax, on a strange, winding road, "I went off a curve and flipped the car," while (2) approaching Fredericksburg, "I hit a pothole and blew a tire but continued on, sleepless and disoriented." No mention that being high as a kite on vino--he registered a BAC more than 21/2 times the legal limit in Fairfax--might have precipitated the mishaps.
In his essay, what's more, Mr. Frawley says hardly a word about the harm his "meltdown" did to UMW, which holds dear a reputation forged by devoted leaders over decades, and which now, amid a search for a new president, is described by a past one in a leading American newspaper as an institution governed by Captain Blighs. What's more, it was the people of Greater Fredericksburg that Mr. Frawley both served and ill served, not those of Dulles and Cabin John. Why did he not make his case in these pages?
Mr. Frawley holds an English degree and was an arts-and-sciences dean at George Washington University. He must know the Greek tragedies, all of which boil down to a single moral, an ineluctable lesson from which none among our all-fallen race is exempt: Character is destiny.
Let us earnestly hope that Bill Frawley, a brilliant man who has suffered hellfire, is destined for higher things than the blamesmanship of a lesson unlearned.

Along with Kenny Vaughan, Will Kimbrough has long been one of Nashville's go-to guitar-plunker sidemen for years. A key part of Todd Snider's original rock band the Nervous Wrecks, Kimbrough parlayed that job into a regular touring gig with alt-country god Rodney Crowell. He's also there when Music City underground heavyweights like Mark Germino go into the studio. Obviously, this means Kimbrough has rubbed up against some of the premier songwriters of the day, and his four solo albums attest he's learned his lessons well. He's also involved in Daddy, a five-piece rocking Americana band, with another left-side-of-Nashville icon, Tommy Womack. Look for Kimbrough to sample work from across his 20-plus-year career on this solo listening-room foray.

Winter Storm
Caution: This story contains strong Incest Elements of sex between Mother and son, between aunt and Nephew and between cousins.
It was one of the worst snowstorms ever to hit Kingston. The snow was up to the window sills and all the roads were closed so I could not possibly make it to my classes at high school.
When Dad divorced Mom, he received the family residence, and Mom took two small rental houses. She rented one out, while she and I lived in the other. Our house had all electric heat and no facility for burning wood. With the electric power off because of the snowstorm, the house temperature went down to fifteen degrees. My teeth were chattering so loudly that they sounded like a machine gun.
Mom pulled the electric blanket off of her bed and dug a feather bedcover out of the closet. After she put it on her bed, she suggested that I crawl in the bed with her as I probably would be too cold alone in my own bed. In as much as we had gotten up only to observe the snow, neither of us were dressed. I threw my bath robe on Mom's bed and climbed under the feather bedcover with her. My teeth stopped chattering once I became warm, and I soon drifted off to sleep. When I was awaken by a wonderful feeling. As I became fully aware of my surroundings, I felt my mother's warm hand inside my pajamas — fondling my hard cock.

Desktop Teleporter 220.127.116.11
Lightweight and easy to use
By default, the application opens up in a compact window, with several tabs and options that offer everything needed to start using it. Most of the time it stays hidden in the system tray, you only have to bring it up if you want to make any changes.
There is not much required on your behalf. File extensions and names can be added to an exception list so the application knows not to move them. Basically every item that appears on your desktop is moved to a specific folder, thus keeping it clean.
Add exceptions, specify folders and take notes
The first tab of the application is dedicated to files. Here you can add specific extensions not to be moved, as well as file names. Additionally, an option lets you choose whether or not to move renamed files and folders, or makes several attempts to items in use.
Multiple destination folders can be created, but only one set to active. This is done from the second tab, where you can also insert a delay in the process. Unfortunately, there is no implemented hotkey support, and would have come in handy to quickly bring up the main window, or switch between destination folders.
Last but not least, miscellaneous options include an auto start function, a log, and the possibility to take notes and have them saved to file, so that every time an item is moved, a small text field appears for you to write down any note after which it is saved to a plain text document.
In conclusion
To sum it up, Desktop Teleporter offers a clever alternative to better organizing your desktop. It gets the job done fast and good but tends to feel a little rough around the edges. Overall it provides a neat starting step when you finally decide to clean your desktop.

Why oh why do people jump to conclusions without properly investigating things? I haven't ranted in a while because, well, there's really nothing to rant about as of late. However, this morning, I read this news article on violation of the GPL by a site called Cipherfunk.org.

Perspective. It's what separates one opinion from another. A person who looks at a glass that is half empty may be despondent but a person who looks at a glass half full may be full of joy. I like to think "Hey! Who the hell put that glass on this table anyway?". We all have different ideas that shape who we are, what we do, and why we do it. Often, these ideas blend into our interests and hobbies. With … Continue Reading →

Message sent to the Lower House, by Mr. Serjeant
Crooke and Sir Richard Swale:
That when the Lords did give Commission to their
Committees to meet and conser with yours, concerning
Naturalization of the Scottish Nation, fully authorized
to handle it generally or severally, as the same might
divide itself, in respect of Persons born before or after
His Majesty's Coming to the Crown, according to your
former Promise of a free Conference, it is well known
unto you, that the last Meeting brought forth little
Fruit, in regard of the unexpected Course which was
observed in the Proceeding. Their Lordships bringing
Power and Purpose to deliver their Opinions of those
Points and Doubts which your Committees had proposed, and to have acquainted you further with their
own Inclination to the rest, without Prejudice to your
former Reasons, and without Speech or Thought at
that Time to point or stand upon any Exposition of
on either Side by that which should have been said at
that Time (a Form so necessary in this great Cause,
wherein the Lords, from the first Beginning, with your
own Consent, resolved to proceed upon Knowledge each
of other's Mind in all Things before they began to
speak to Bills, as your unexpected Reservation to hear
without any Speech took away the Use and Life of
that intended Conference); especially considering that
their Lordships that were Committees could have no
Direction to fall from a free Conference to such a Distinction, as did in Effect close up, and cross directly, the
Purpose for which the House had sent them; and yet,
out of their Desire that this Work may not suffer Interruption by any Mistaking, or too exact insisting upon
Formalities; the whole House, upon the Report which
hath been made by their Committees, have resolved now
to make this Proposition, That, if you will send Committees authorized, both to hear their Propositions and
Reasons for some Differences between the Post nati,
and the Ante nati, in Point of Conveniency only, without Reference to any Thing that hath been said before,
or may be said, in Point of Law, and to debate thereupon by way of Argument only, as your Deputies shall
find Occasion, without concluding either them or yourselves by any Thing spoken at that Time, thereby to requite that free and ingenuous Manner of Conference, to
which their Lordships have ever inclined in this Matter;
they will be very ready to meet with you again, and
open themselves, by way of Proposition and Argument,
in all those Points which were last untreated of.
Answer, That they will send Answer by some of their
own House, so soon as conveniently they may.

The Jefferson-Madison Regional Library will be providing more services thanks to donors.
The Fiends of the Library gave the Charlottesville branch $50,000 for new programs. They will hire a reading specialist, a young adult author to speak, and buy new equipment to digitize old print archives.
"Each year we look at: What does the library need? What is public funding unable to fund? Then we try to give the library patrons the best service we can give them," said Peter McIntosh with Friends of the Library.
The group raised about $160,000 total.

Fenway Park, Boston, Massachusetts Attendance: 35,345
White Sox-Red Sox Preview
Chicago White Sox at Boston Red Sox
- The Red Sox took two of three games at U.S. Cellular Field in April, improving to 14-5 against the White Sox since July 30, 2011. That includes five consecutive wins by Boston at Fenway Park.
- Despite mustering just two hits themselves, the White Sox shut out Seattle on Sunday, 1-0. It was Chicago's first victory when collecting no more than two hits since September 2009.
- After dropping two of three games to the Orioles, the Red Sox have fallen 10 games below .500 (39-49) for the first time in 2014. It's only the second season since 1998 (2012) that Boston has dipped at least that low.
- With half the season remaining, Jose Abreu (16) needs to hit one more home run on the road to match the highest single-season total ever by a White Sox rookie (Ron Kittle, 17 in 1983).
- White Sox second baseman Gordon Beckham went 0-for-13 against Seattle this weekend. For the season overall, while Beckham is batting just .193 (26-for-135) when facing pitchers for the first time in a game, he's over .300 (.309, 38-for-123) when getting more than one look them.
- With a 3-for-6 performance Sunday, Dustin Pedroia has collected three hits in five of eight games since June 28, when he's batted .500 (16-for-32). He had managed at least three hits on just four occasions over his previous 78 games this season.

By KEVIN CHROUST
(AP) -- The last time Boston's record was this bad heading into the All-Star break, Pedro Martinez was two seasons away from his Red Sox debut.
They sure could use him now.
Instead, the Red Sox turn to Brandon Workman with hopes of curbing troubling pitching inconsistencies Tuesday night in the second of a four-game series with the Chicago White Sox at Fenway Park.
The Red Sox (39-50) have lost six of seven and are 10 games out of first place in the AL East. They haven't entered the break in worse shape since being 13 games under .500 in 1996.
The Red Sox have dropped 50 games before the break for the third time since it was introduced in 1933 and are two losses away from matching the franchise-worst total set in 1966.
In Boston's last 13 games - a 4-9 span - the club ERA is 5.38, which trails only Houston and Texas in the AL. It has allowed 14 or more hits in four of those games, leading to a .280 opponent average.
One of those disasters belongs to Workman (1-2, 4.17 ERA).
The right-hander had the worst start of his career the last time out, allowing six runs and five hits with three walks in four innings of Wednesday's 16-9 loss to the Chicago Cubs. Workman has lost consecutive outings with 10 earned runs allowed in 11 innings after going without a defeat in his first five spins in the rotation.
"Bigger picture is, we're still confident in our guys," manager John Farrell told MLB's official website. "This is a one-game situation where from the mound, it got away from us. Yet at the same time, we still have confidence in the guys in our clubhouse."
Boston will face John Danks, who has been considerably stronger.
Danks (7-6, 4.12) has had just one hiccup in his last eight starts, over which he's 4-2 with a 2.65 ERA while holding opponents to two earned runs or fewer seven times.
The left-hander didn't get the decision in Wednesday's 3-2 win over the Los Angeles Angels despite holding them to two runs and seven hits with a career high-matching 10 strikeouts in 7 2-3 innings.
Danks was also left out of the decision after six strong innings against Boston on April 16, though he's 3-6 with a 4.97 ERA in 10 matchups. David Ortiz is 6 for 20 with two home runs off Danks while Dustin Pedroia is 3 for 20. Mike Napoli has struck out 13 times in 27 at-bats.
Chicago (43-47) opened the series with a 4-0 win Monday and has shut out consecutive opponents after Sunday's 1-0 win over Seattle. The White Sox last had three straight shutouts May 2-5, 1973.
They've allowed six runs in a 4-1 stretch and needed every bit of the quality pitching seeing as they're batting .178 in that time.
Monday's runs came on homers by Adam Dunn and Dayan Viciedo.
"Baseball is brutal," manager Robin Ventura said. "There's a lot of good stuff (Boston starter Clay Buchholz) did tonight. He ended up paying for the ones that he didn't."
Viciedo remained hot with his fifth home run in 10 games, over which he's batting .333 with 11 RBIs.
The Red Sox were held to two hits for the second time in seven games and a run or less for the third time in that span. Their four home shutouts sustained are one more than all of last season.
"We've got guys up and down the lineup that know what to do and have done it before, but we're just not getting it done right now," outfielder Brock Holt said.
A.J. Pierzynski is 4 for 23 against the White Sox since leaving Chicago following the 2012 season.

Most useless kitchen gadget?
- p
- Pantagruel Aug 6, 2005 12:25 PM
In the Wall Street Journal Weekend Journal section yesterday, the Catalog Critic was about iced tea makers. The article begins with this question:
"We wondered: is it worth paying $15 to $60 for a contraption that saves the effort of pouring our tea from pot to pitcher and sticking it in the fridge?"
At the risk of seeming prejudiced, since I've never owned an iced tea maker, I'll answer with an emphatic, No, it's not worth it.
A far greater issue than the cost, which is trivial, would be the amount of space one of these things would waste. Because my kitchen is dimensionally challenged, I've decided to forego many utensils and machines that seem interesting but are not essential. But of all the useless gadgets I've ever heard of, an iced tea maker seems to be the absolute most useless.
Anything ... ANYTHING ... sold at Bed Bath & More in a designer color with all sorts of sleek lines, plastic-coated handle, etc - what I call "housie-wousie stuff" - I guarantee you it's going to break in a week if it works at all, and be twice as expensive as the restaurant-supply-store version that actually works, and lasts a lifetime.
I'd say the most EXPENSIVE (and wasteful) useless gadget is the dishwasher, all things considered, with garbage disposals close behind.
Link: http://eatingchinese.org
re: Gary Soup
A dishwasher is a godsend! Both for hiding things and for cleaning them when you've got enough of a collection. I believe the dishwasher was invented by a woman.
As for garbage disposals, I agree - no point in them at all. And to take things further, how about garbage compactors?
re: Sharuf
"how about garbage compactors?"
Needless and useless is also what I thought about trash compactors until I built a house on a hillside. Now, I love the blasted thing for all the trips up to the trashcan it saves. One caveat: absolutely NO food goes into it. Paper only, and clean, non-food paper at that. It obligingly squishes boxes, bags and household detritus into one manageable chunk, but you could not have told me this until I lived with it. I'd always thought it belonged in the High-Compression Air-Filter category of useless gadgets.
re: Sherri
Plus it's really fun to get all drunk and put your empty bottles in them...and get all excited at the loud noise!!!
Okay, so I know you're not supposed to do that.
re: Gary Soup
Aren't garbage disposals ecologically beneficial, since it's preferable to send food waste into the sewer system than add to landfills?
(Assuming you don't have a garden and room to compost.)
re: Pantagruel
It depends on the sewer system. IN some cases, a landfill would be preferable.
re: Pantagruel
Actually, the use of garbage disposals has contributed to increased nutrient loads to rivers and streams (along with erosion, runoff of overused fertilizer, etc.). This causes algal blooms and other undesirable effects, like "dead zones" in the Gulf of Mexico. Keep those nutrients in your little ecosystem by composting!
re: Gary Soup
I'm flabergasted. How could you possibly find a garbage disposal useless? Do you really want to scrape your pots and plates into the trash? Peel your potatos over the trash? Scoop up nasty bits with your hands and drip across the floor on the way to the trash? I don't get it. I grew up with one, lived in kitchen-hell in my first house without one, and happily installed two in my new one.
re: danna
Depends on a couple things-how many mouths you're feeding, and the content of your diet. When there were two kids and two adults and a lot of meat being consumed, the disposal paid its way. Now it's just me, and relatively little meat in the house, and I happily carry most of my scraps out to the composter.
re: danna
I do all that, as I don't have a garbage disposal where I'm living now. I used to, in my previous abode, and while it was nice to have one, it isn't as hellish to go without, as you make it out to be. But then, I didn't grow up with one, nor with a dishwasher either (only in America are these 'standard' kitchen items).
BTW, you can peel potatoes, carrots, garlic, onions etc over a piece of newspaper, then dump that in the trash. I keep a plastic tub lined with a plastic bag that I empty the contents of the sink strainer into (and you'll need a sink strainer if you don't have an undersink disposal). That then gets put in the trash. That way, you don't have to "scoop up nasty bits with your hands and drip across the floor on the way to the trash"
re: ju
Haven't had one since I left my parent's house at eighteen. They're nice and all, but certainly not essential. I use one bowl for all cooking scraps which gets dumped at the end of cooking, another which gets dumped at the end of dishwashing (by hand - never had a dishwasher either.) Not that big a deal, really.
re: danna
I cannot imagine living without one, conditioning I guess. I've not lived without one since the late 50's. In my neighborhood's covenants and restrictions disposers are required to be installed in every home. The intenr is to cut down on vermin infestation. Ironically or because of it vermin are not a problem but the deer, racoons, possums, rabbits, coyote etc. are more of a hassle. This is a city neighborhood too.
re: Candy
Ah, CC&Rs, the bane of condominium and co-op ownership.
I had a friend who lived in a condominium in Sherman Oaks whose CC&Rs specified that "noxious foods may not be prepared in the kitchen". So he made kai kiew warn (green Thai curry with chicken) and xoi sau rieng (sticky rice with durian) outside on his patio. In the 105 degree heat.
re: Das Ubergeek
Great story. Bet the other condo owners didn't forsee someone would then cook these "noxious foods" outside, where their odour would disseminate even more effectively :)
I've been thinking of frying salted preserved fish("hum yui") and belachan (dried fermented shrimp paste) on my deck .......
re: Candy
Garborators are BAD for the environment however convenient they are in the kitchen. I recently moved to an area that , believe it or not, has curbside composting! You have a sealed green box that you put all your compostables in (includes paper towels, kleenex, veggies, meat, etc etc) and it is picked up once per week. You can get "ripe" composting back for your garden any time you want it delivered. This is the future and we should all lobby our municipal gov'ts for similar service.
FYI - We also have a small bin we can keep in the kitchen. We put it on the counter when we are chopping and put our bits directly into it as well as the paper towels used to clean up the drips :-)
re: Candy
This machine looks interesting and I wish I had one but it's bit too pricey for me right now.
re: Gary Soup
No frigging way! I don't think my husband and I would ever fight again if we had a dishwasher. "It's your turn." "No, I did it last time, remember?" When I got to my parents' for dinner, I love doing dishes because they have a dishwasher - it's just so amazing to see cleanup go so fast!
re: snackish
I have to agree: I came from a large family, and was the primary dishwasher for many years (asbestos hands to prove it, courtesy of familial insistence on using scalding water to wash things), and have reached the age of 44 without ever operating one by myself (I have stacked items into those of friends at their request, IIRC). The only time I might use one is when I entertain, but I could not use one because I have gold-rimmed china, sterling flatware and crystal, all of which ought be washed by hand. And when entertaining less formally, it's either paper or easy-to-clean stuff.
Then again, I was raised with the clean-as-you-go method and do it out of habit; I suspect if you don't do that, a dishwasher might seem temptingly handy.
re: Karl S.
My bone china and sterling flatware go in the dishwasher. Do not use the heated drying cycle and don't touch the china until it comes to room temp. Remove the sterling and dub it dry while the china cools. I do not put stemware in the DW because the stems are too long and it would knock them off. I do occasionally and I do mean only occasionally put Waterford bareware in the DW. Usually when there is a crowd and they are cluttering up needed counterspace. The water in S. Indiana is very hard and the minerals in the water will etch the glass ware. I learned this the hard way. It is actually better to wash china in the dishwasher because there is less chance of breaking it in a porcelain sink when your hands are wet and soapy and you are tired and don't want to face a kitchen stacked with dirty plates in the AM. No matter how many guests my kitchen is 99% nready to go in the AM. In my next home I hope to design a kitchen where I can have 2 dishwashers one to run and the other to load.
re: snackish
i usually agree, but every so often, when i have several guests, i wish i had one.
re: Phu Bai
Until I heard about the iced tea makers, the electric can opener was also my choice.
re: Phu Bai
...except for someone whose hands are afflicted with arthritis.
re: Sam D.
I just started having arthritis in my right hand, at age 43. I suspect almost 20 years of mousing have had deleterious effects.
I am on the way to electric can opener. But what ever shall I do about a corkscrew?
re: snackish
"But what ever shall I do about a corkscrew?"
If you can grip with one hand, try a table top model or the "Rabbit" (or one of the knockoffs), amazing easy on the hands.
re: snackish
if ever you needed an excuse to buy one of those counter mounted quick pull wine bottle openers...
re: withalonge
Oster has an electric wine cork puller for about $20. A winelover acquaintaince with carpel tunnel swears by it. The foil cutter is quite nice too.
egg timer (sand or clock)
oil spray pump
spoon rests
shrimp deveiner
cookbook holder
a set of twelve different sizes of melon ballers
electric knife (cuts like my hedge trimmer)
cherry/olive pitter combo
not that i am not guilty of owning some of this nonsense
re: byrd
I am in complete agreement with everything you mentioned - except the cherry/olive pitter. How else do you pit cherries and olives whole? I bought one on a whim and I found I actually use it with some regularity. Then again, I do love olives and cherries.
re: wurstle
I like mine too and the only thing I am sorry about is that I got one of those molded all in one piece so that if I need to turn a page I have to lift it out and put it back in. There was a more expensive model and I've not seen it again that had a wooden base and the shield could flip forward and another feature was that it could be adjusted for books of different thickneses.
I have found my cherry/olive pitter pretty handy at times too.
re: Candy
I like my cherry/olive pitter quite a lot, actually. I was going to post that those little quick-chop gadgets (you know, you put the plastic shield over garlic or nuts or whatever and smack a plunger, which causes blades to come down and chop whatever it is) were the most useless kitchen gadgets of all time, but then a few years ago I had an inspiration.
My little sister-in-law (then 5, now 9) always wants to be in the kitchen when I'm cooking, and I wanted to engage her, since the earlier they start the more likely they'll grow into Chowhounds. I was making marinara sauce one day, went into the drawer to get the "stinky" cutting-board that I use for fish, garlic, onions, leeks, etc., and saw the quick-chop.
I put the board on the low table for her, put some garlic underneath, showed her how to hold it, and let her go to town. When she was done I did the same with the tomatoes. She had a blast, proudly announced that she'd helped me with dinner, and her fingers were safe.
Nowadays, I'm teaching her how to properly use knives, under heavy supervision, so the quick-chop will go back to its useless mode until I need to give another little chowpup something to do.
re: Das Ubergeek
I unashamedly love my mini food chopper. I actually have two, since I discovered that nothing chops garlic, ginger and shallot faster than that. I use one for smelly stuff and one for nuts or other 'non smelly' items.
And the olive pitter?? Fabulous!! Unpitted kalamata olives are way cheaper than the pitted, and often the best ones I find are unpitted. Without that little gadget I would be miserable. And for the brief time of year when fresh cherries are in season, it's the best.
re: cooknKate
I cracked mine the first time I used it, guess I was a little heavy handed. I threw it away, think it was a Liefheit. PITA to clean.
re: personalcheffie
Yup.....I agree with the cleaning, but find that letting it soak in a sink of hot soapy water is the best way.
re: cooknKate
I think the Pampered Chef one you can open up and stick in the dishwasher. Problem is, I only use mine for glasses and plates because I only can fill it up every three or four days. Things that will sit there that long, especially tools, I use quite a few times a day, so I end up handwashing all my bowls, microplanes, measuring cups, etc.
Well, you know that Alton Brown starts this inquiry with the following Category: Anything That Only Does One Job.
I suspect he'd nominate special-purpose pie weights.
Byrd - you will only take my spoon rests if you pry them from my cold, dead fingers! ;-)
I would like to point out that lots of dishwashers really don't use that much water. I recently installed mine, so as a test for me and my girlfriend, I ran a clean cycle with the dishcharge hose in a measured bucket. The normal cycle used 4.8 gallons total.
The dishwasher doesn't continuously use water. There are three "slugs" of water on mine (JennAir) for the normal cycle, each using only a bit more than a gallon and a half.
I don't pre-rinse at all (I scrape and compost), but some people do. The dishes always come out clean.
I contend that washing dishes in the sink requires much more water. Very few people that I know wash their dishes by filling up each side of the sink for a wash and rinse. Most people rinse under running water and use the plastic soap/brush thing. Even "low-flow" faucet use 2.75 gallons per minute, and most are above that 5 gpm). Even running the water for a few minutes far exceeds that water usage for a dishwasher, especially considering the amount of dishes you can get into a load. And the electrical energy is accounted for somewhat in the energy that it takes to heat up the water that's running out of the faucet.
I agree, though, if someone has an old dishwasher that requires lots of prerinsing, then this argument doesn't apply.
re: rudeboy
I could not agree more. My dishwasher cleans and sanitizes an entire load of dishes with one tablespoon of Cascade and I never prerinse my dishes. I am surprised how many people do not utilize this incredible time saver.
re: rudeboy
I hate hate hate! washing dishes by hand. I don't have a split sink or a spray nozzle and the lighting is very bad in my kitchen. So I'm always finding a few items that I have to wash a second time. Cleaning up pots and pans used for cooking meat is almost enough to turn one into a vegetarian.
So I leave them soaking in the sink. It is going to be an hour of dishwashing tonight.
The worst though was when my building was without hot water for 12 days and I had to keep boiling water on the stove to wash my dishes.
A pet peeve of my is that most cookware does not label its items as to whether it is an 8" x 8" or 9 x 9 square pan, or how many quarts a pot holds.
My dad once bought me a humongous Reidel goblet. Have yet to figure out a use for it. Too much air exposure for champagne.
re: rudeboy
Plus, the dishwasher is much more sanitary. How many people really go to the trouble of properly sanitizing dishes by hand? Filling a sink with water, adding bleach, soaking the dishes and then letting them dry takes and eternity. Most people just rub their dishes with a disgusting old sponge and call it clean when the visible filth is gone.
My vote for the most useless kitchen gadget is the hard boiled egg slicer.
re: Morton the Mousse
i use a sponge, hot water, and soap--no bleach. nobody's ever been sick from eating off my dishes.
re: kristen
There are some dishes that must be done by hand -- crystal, china, wood, cooking knives, etc. -- these I do with scalding hot water, a sponge and dish soap.
The sponge gets put into the dishwasher before the dishwasher is started (usually once a week). After it's been washed four times it gets thrown out and a new one starts its tenure. Sponges cost 19 cents each at my local Vallarta market, there's no reason to let them get icky and gunky and poisonous.
re: Das Ubergeek
Cooks Illustrated did a test on the best way of cleaning sponges and the worst (leaving the most germs) was running the them thru a dishwasher. The best was microwaving for 30 seconds.
re: Morton the Mousse
I love my hard boiled egg slicer, just discovered it slices mushrooms beautifully too.
re: Morton the Mousse
Nobody but germophobic Americans "sanitizes" their dishes. This "sanitize-everything" culture is nonsense, and actually contributes to the development of hardy, resistant strains of bacteria. The main reason why infections contracted at a hospital are so much harder to cure is that these bacteria are used to the omnipresent sanitizers, and immune to them. Using "germ-killing" lotions and cleaning products on everything is a bad idea in the long run.
Aside from helping them become resistant, it also makes one more sensitive even to normally "harmless" bacteria and germs, and prevents one from developing effective defenses against common microorganisms. The only people who should use household and personal sanitizers and bleaches extensively are those with either a compromised, or as yet undeveloped immunity system.
re: Sir Gawain
Thanks, I was hoping someone would say that.
re: Sir Gawain
actually, I'd omit the underdeveloped immune systems, if you are talking about children. I would ban antibacterials and sanitizers, lock them outside with the dogs, and make them drink from the water hose (as I had to do).
re: rudeboy
I meant babies...
re: Sir Gawain
so did I!!!
re: Sir Gawain
I agree 100% about antibiotic santizing agents, but I think the steaming hot water in the dishwasher is a good idea, especially for killing potential nasties on things that have touched raw chicken.
re: Morton the Mousse
The egg slicer? USELESS?? Not when you're making a huge bowl of potato salad and have a 1-potato-to-1-egg recipe, it's not. Just wish someone would invent a boiled-egg PEELER that worked that well!
re: Will Owen
Shop vacuum. Roll the egg to crackle the shell, grasp firmly, apply vacuum hose with egg-peeling attachment, and it sucks the egg right out of the shell and deposits it into the reservoir. Peel three eggs a minute that way. Great for your wedding reception, bar mitzvah. Clean reservoir in the normal fashion after each use, of course.
re: Will Owen
re: dicing hard-cooked eggs in quantity
Use a pastry cutter in a large deep bowl. I use a stoneware bowl with a matte glaze--the whole eggs don't slip around.
"Biffa, Bamma, Booma! All-a salada!" (done)
re: rudeboy
Thank you. I have always wondered where the people who say it's a waste of water are getting their information. I'm pretty sure that the way I wash dishes is not a water- or soap-saver. But I don't have to pre-rinse either.
re: rudeboy
When I was living in Edinburgh in the late 80s, an American friend flew over for a visit. After I made him dinner, he offered to wash up, an offer I accepted with alacrity. After a few minutes, I heard him opening and closing cabinet doors in the kitchen and when I popped my head round the door to find out what was happening, he asked in bewilderment: "where's your dishwasher? ". After I stopped laughing, I explained that *he* was. And that very few homes in the UK had dishwashers, unlike in the US.
I do like having a (non-human) dishwasher but it certainly isn't essential.
For a while, my mother decided, "Okay, he likes to cook, he just bought his first house, therefore he needs kitchen tools."
You would not BELIEVE some of the things she bought. Ten, off the top of my head:
1. Lemon covers. The idea is that you slice the lemon, put the cover on, squeeze, and the pits are trapped in the cover. I, on the other hand, slice the lemon off-centre (Vietnamese-style) and thus the pits remain in the part of the lemon I don't use.
2. Garlic press. I wouldn't have a problem with this if it weren't so damn hard to keep clean. It saves me perhaps fifteen seconds' worth of pounding and chopping, and takes almost twenty minutes to clean, even with the stupid little tool that's attached to it. Now I either mince it on a cutting board, or I grind it in a molcajete. Both are much easier to clean than a garlic press.
3. Citrus reamer. If you know how to properly cut citrus, you will get all the juice you can without having to resort to a tool -- and if you don't, just use the handle of a wooden cooking spoon.
4. Automatic bread machine. It does make bread, albeit not very good bread (I like crust on mine, so all my bread tends to be freeform "artisanal-style" loaves), but the problem is that it takes up SO MUCH SPACE.
5. Automatic pasta machine. Same problem. I have a pasta roller attachment for my Kitchenaid (without which I would be lost) which stores nicely in a cabinet. I have been making pasta since I was old enough to roll it out by hand, I certainly don't need a machine with custom, proprietary measuring cups, and again, it takes up SO MUCH SPACE.
6. Electric wok. It doesn't get hot enough, even after an hour of preheating, to impart "wok hei" to my food, so it's basically a giant saucepan that plugs in. The only other use I've ever found for it was keeping gravy warm at Thanksgiving when the Crock Pot was deployed elsewhere.
7. Jar opener. You know, the thing with the handle that supposedly grabs your jar lid and opens it? A thirty-cent piece of rubber does the same job and stores more easily.
8. Bagel slicing kit. The idea is that you put a bagel in the holder so it's held steady, and you slice through the slot in the holder. Are there really people who can't slice a bagel without this?
9. Shrimp deveiner. My God, what a useless thing. It can't even perform the one function for which it was invented without ruining the shrimp. Use a sharp knife and, if necessary, a toothpick.
10. Fruit ripening bowl. It's a plastic bowl with a plastic cover that has small air holes in it. Supposedly it keeps fruit flies out and ripens your fruit at the same time. I live in the San Fernando Valley, where it's routinely above 100 degrees Fahrenheit, thus cooking the fruit rather than ripening it, and the holes are so large even regular flies can get in. Use a paper bag and a piece of apple if you have to.
re: Das Ubergeek
Actually the holder for bagel slicng is a safety item. There are countless emergency room visits by people who have cut themselves badly while slicing bagels in half.
re: Candy
I remember reading a funny article that the majority of these bagel cutting accidents are in the South and Midwest, far from the bagel's "natural habitat" in New York or transplants in California.
Apparently, many people in these areas believe that the palm of the hand is an acceptable substititute for a cutting board and are thus unprepared for the inevitable point when the resistance of the bagel disappears and the knife slice quickly through the bagel (and their hand).
Honestly, I think they get what they deserve for thinking that "sundried tomato/basil/parmesan" or "blueberry/cinnamon crumb" are acceptable bagel varieties.
re: Jonathan Saw
Wow. Just... wow.
Now, I can't blame these poor Southerners and Midwesterners too much. "Bagels" to them often mean the frozen Lender's kind, which are not bagels so much as dense, breadlike gravity sinks. (They're HEAVY!)
I wonder, though... first, do these people tend to injure themselves in the kitchen more often anyway, given the complete lack of sense demonstrated by CUTTING A BAGEL ON YOUR HAND, and second, how many of them would be likely to own bagel cutting kits?
I've been slicing bagels without a fancy kit for decades and never once nicked my hand. I sold the kit at a rummage sale. Perhaps I saved some poor unsuspecting Indiana transplant from seriously injuring him- or herself and thus ruining his or her chance at a modelling career.
re: Das Ubergeek
I've seen bagel professionals at the Bruegger's chain cut bagels in the my-palm-is-my-cutting-board manner - I always wince to see it - it's so clearly an accident waiting to happen.
Lesser chain Finagle A Bagel (okay bagels, terrible coffee, and waaaay to cutesy a name) has the Bagel Buzz Saw, where the whole bagels are put onto a conveyer belt, where they travel to a huge razor-sharp spinning-at-a-zillion-rpm buzzsaw blade, which slices them cleanly in two and throws them at mach 3 or so to the finishing area, for a smear of whatever. It's kind of fun to watch, and who knows how many high-school-part-timers' fingers it's saved?
re: Das Ubergeek
Most of your respondents jumped on the bagel-slicer...but I'm trying to figure out what's so hard about cleaning a garlic press. First of all, I always scrape all the pressed garlic off the outside with a sharp knife, then immediately put the press into whatever else is soaking in the sink. Then when it's time to clean it, I just hold the bottom of the press up tight against the sink faucet and blast away - the pressed residue usually falls out in a single wad, with maybe a shred or two inside to be picked out with the point of a knife.
As for the little cleaning thingy, I lost track of that a week after I got the press, and I've never bothered to look for it.
What kind do you have? Mine's a Susi, the three-piece kind with the swinging press foot. If yours is a two-piece, then just being hard to clean is the least of its flaws.
re: Will Owen
I have a Susi too. I still have my cleaning gizmo after many years but don't use it. I do the same as you and also if I have left the skin on it is extremely easy to pick out.
re: Das Ubergeek
In "Kitchen Confidential," Bourdain says something like, "I don't know what that stuff coming out of the garlic press is - but it's not garlic!"
I used to be a huge press devotee, squirting that stuff in to every dish I made. My KA model broke, though, and I never got around to replacing it - my knife skills immediately improved, and if you need a paste, just sprinkle some salt on the minced garlic, and use the spine of your knife to drag it across the board.
I live in NYC, and have had to simplify everything. If I had to choose a useless gadget, it'd probably be my marble rolling pin.
Most useful - board scraper.
My husband has this plastic microwave cover/dome thing he loves and you get the same effect from putting a paper towel over what you are reheating. And this thing takes up a ton of space in the dishawasher.
I love avocados as does my son. We aways have avocados in varying states of ripeness on hand in our house. My DH thought he found the most amazing too I could ever wish for- an avocado slicer. What an utter and total waste. Unless your avocado is rock solid and unripe all it does is squish the whole thing. I mean is it so hard to slice and avocado in hhalf , twist and then use same knife to "give you perfectly sized wedges to garnish your salad or just eat." Please!
re: foodiex2
I've got one and have no problem in slicing dead ripe avacados with it quickly and neatly.
re: Das Ubergeek
exactly, When I first saw it I said you have got to be kidding. I tried it once and then back it went. I traded it for a fabulous "cookie" spatula. It is extra thin and flat so it so great for cookies but also awesome for flipping fried eggs, delicate fishes, parmesian snow flakes, anything that needs a thin flexable lift.
re: foodiex2
SEVENTEEN DOLLARS for twenty cents' worth of metal?!
Uff da.
re: Das Ubergeek
It does a great job for me and I've got the drawer space for it so only doing one job is not an issue to me. What I have found pretty useless is those silicone pot holders. They are not flexible enough to grip things well. I ended up throwing them in my table linens drawer and occasionally use them as a trivet for a hot pot. I also have one of those crinkle cutters someone gave me. It hangs out in one of my knife drawers. I rarely even remember I have it unless I am getting someting out of that drawer. I guess each to thier own.
re: Das Ubergeek
and it only slices avocados in a certain way. i just use a knife to cut the avocado in half, whack the seed w/ the very same knife and twist it out.
A co-worker once bought - in the same store at the same time - both a mushroom brush AND a corn silk brush.
Of course, this is the same woman who lived in her house for seven years before she realized there was a a cutting board built into her cabinetry...
This "stove" thing takes up a huge amount of space. Tried to get my ex to take it, but no way. At least it provides a surface for my toaster, George Foreman Griller, blender, and radio, plus a space for mail to accumulate.
I was going to include the Quick Chop on my list -- you know, you put the garlic or whatever inside a plastic shield and smack a plunger several times to force the target food into submission.
I had my sister-in-law (then 5, now 11) in the kitchen so I could keep an eye on her, and I was making marinara sauce. As I went to go get the "stinky foods" cutting board (garlic, onions, shallots, leeks, lemongrass, etc.) I saw the Quick Chop in the corner.
I put the board on the low table, put some garlic under the Quick Chop, showed her how to use it, and she went to town. After the garlic was pulverised she did the same to the seeded tomatoes. She had a blast, I didn't need to worry about her fingers, and she got to make noise which is always a very good thing to a five-year-old. She got to brag that she'd helped me with dinner, and got the appropriate accolades.
Now I'm starting to show her how to use knives properly (under constant and close supervision, of course!), so the Quick Chop will be once again relegated to the "useless" corner of the drawer, until I have another Chowpup in need of entertainment.
Right now, I'd have to say that the most useless item in my kitchen would be the dish drying rack. It simply takes up way too much counter space (I'm in an apartment kitchen) and isn't big enough to hold most of what I'd be washing by hand anyway. It's sitting on top of a cabinet awaiting the next garage sale after only a couple of uses. Coming in at a close second (in the "it seemed like a good idea at the time" category) is the 1,000 sheet box of sheet parchment I picked up at a wholesale place, and probably still have 975 sheets of nine months later.
The foot long woodens skewers somebody gave us that are the width of a standard toothpick. I have tried using them, they ALWAYS break.
Beat that for uselessness.
Sitting in my drawer, still in its original packaging is my "green bean frencher." I've had it for many years, and have moved with it several times. But then, I guess I have packrat issues, and have never lived in a place suitable for a garage sale.
Stuff from this string I use with great frequency:
the citrus reamer
the bread machine (time it so you wake up to baking bread smell!)
the spoon rest (are you kidding me? where do you put the wooden spoon after stirring the tomato sauce? on the counter top like my fiance does??)
the dishwasher & garbage disposal (lived in NYC for a long time, where disposals are illegal and no place has a dishwasher. now that i have both in LA my kitchen is a lot cleaner)
the cookbook holder (not every hard cover book stays open nicely like the J of C)
i once owned an oil mister, which worked great for prepping roasted veggies, especially eggplant, which soaks up drizzled oil instantly making it hard to spread. but then it clogged up...
re: julietg
I don't have a reamer, but I have one of those press type gadgets for citrus where it turns the fruit inside out and squeezes the life out of it. With carpal tunnel, those tools are tops for getting every ounce of juice from citrus
re: julietg
For the oil mister, you could always go out and buy olive oil Pam. never clogs.
Yeah, sure, it depletes the ozone layer, but still, I find it helpful. Not wonderous olive oil, but I find the misters never put enough oil to impart flavor, anyhow.
Considering it's cost-to-use ratio I'd say a food processor-- at least a large one. I wish I'd just gotten an inexpensive 5-cup one and saved the money.
re: freelancer77
I use mine for my special-needs students to improve their fine motor skills. They pick up pom poms with the strawberry huller and put them into a bowl or bucket. Yes, I agree, even though there are many useless gadgets, strawberry huller tops the list. Dishwasher, however, is another story completely. Saves so much time!
re: freelancer77
I love my strawberry huller! I use it for tomatoes, too. I have the kind that is like tweezers with the round ends, not the scoop type.
"We wondered: is it worth paying $15 to $60 for a contraption that saves the effort of pouring our tea from pot to pitcher and sticking it in the fridge?"
For $5 on an end of aisle sale at Target, my iced tea maker is one of my best gadgets. Load up the brew basket with tea, sugar, lemon peel, whatever flavors you like. Fill the pitcher with ice. Push a button. Voila, perfect iced tea that is already cold and perfectly sweetened and flavored.
"Coming in at a close second (in the "it seemed like a good idea at the time" category) is the 1,000 sheet box of sheet parchment I picked up at a wholesale place, and probably still have 975 sheets of nine months later."
Our Costco opened up close to 10 years ago and I'm still on my first box of aluminum foil. Actually, I've never been happier - I used to run out of foil all the time, and the little boxes were expensive and the foil wasn't as strong as this stuff. I think I will be able to pass this box along to the next generation! XD
Most useless gadget ever? A plastic handheld chopper/whipper/beater that looked like a giant measuring cup with some cheap plastic inserts and a handle that turned like it was held on with rusty bolts, touted to replace expensive food processers and mixers. It's tied in my book with those flimsy egg slicers that you have to replace every few months because the wires break.
I'm surprised nobody has mentioend the banana holder. Seriously why the hell do you need a gadget to hold up your bananas? they ripen pretty evenly sitting on the counter or in a bowl. I can't think of any other possible reason for the existence of this gadget. also what happens when you are down to 1 banana?
re: choctastic
Stab the damn thing right in the middle with that brass hook ;-)
i heard once that dishwashers use LESS water than handwashing. Is this true? Or is it dependent on the hands that are doing the washing?
I live in NYC and am fortunate enough to have just moved into a new apartment with a dishwasher. God, I don't know how I did it before the washer came into my life.
The most useless kitchen gadget is the rice cooker. It cooks just as well if not better in a pot on the stove and it only takes twenty minutes.
My dream kitchen would have a bank of dishwashers and dishwashing drawers large and small. Dishes would never have to be unloaded just used and transfered to another dishwasher continuously.
the best thing i ever got was the one touch can opener. i cant live without it if anyone has arthritis in their hands its the best thing they invented.
I would never have bought an iced tea maker, but last summer going through my fiance's garage and his mom's things getting ready for a garage sale I found an iced tea maker. I love it. My fiance is a 24/7 coffee addict so the coffee pot is always full with coffee. (I used to make my iced tea in a coffee pot) I'm not a coffee drinker so I like to have iced tea around to drink. So, having an iced tea maker is great for our household.
As for the garbage disposals and dish washers. Lived with and without both. The dishwasher, I never minded loading but didn't care for emptying it and the kids wouldn't do it unless asked so the dishes wouldn't get taken out. I found it was just as good to wash as you go and have them done and put away. The garbage disposal isn't such a big deal either. It's easy to live without one.

Orange Tour: Sid Johnson Company
We learn how to plant trees in the desert and present an award to Sid Johnson for his work in the community.
The Pivot of the 20th Century [Audio]
Speaker(s): Professor David Kennedy | Winston Churchill said in 1945 that 'the United States stands at this moment at the summit of the world'. Yet just five years earlier America had been an economic catastrophe and an isolationist bastion. How that transformation came about, and its consequences, will be the subject of this lecture. David M Kennedy is Donald J McLachlan Professor of History at Stanford University.
The New Politics of Identity [Audio]
Speaker(s): David Goodhart, Professor John Keane, Professor Lord Bhikhu Parekh | Capture started: 2008-04-29 18:31
Skills, Rights and Resources in the East Asian Path to Development [Audio]
Speaker(s): Professor Kenneth Pomeranz | This lecture traces evolving relationships among skills, bargaining power, and East Asian economic development. Kenneth Pomeranz is UCI Chancellor's Professor of History at the University of California-Irvine.
Economic Agendas in a Global Context: reflections on the role of Korea [Audio]
Speaker(s): Professor Ha-Joon Chang, Cambridge University | The global economy is going through a turbulent time and it is time for a fundamental re-design of the global economic system. In doing this, Korea has a unique set of assets to provide. It is one of the few countries that have transformed itself from one of the poorest to the one of the industrialized in living memory, so it can understand the concerns that span across a huge spectrum of countries. In this lecture, Ha-Joon Chang will d
Inhuman and Degrading Treatment: the words themselves [Audio]
Speaker(s): Professor Jeremy Waldron | Many human rights charters contain prohibitions on inhuman and degrading treatment of prisoners and detainees. Terms like "inhuman" and "degrading" are difficult to interpret, but they are certainly not meaningless. It is important to attend to attend to the meanings of the words themselves, as well as to the decisions that courts have made about particular practices. Reflection on the meanings of these highly-charged terms reveals important complexity, whi
Obama and the Empire of Liberty [Audio]
Speaker(s): Professor David Reynolds | A new president. A new era? David Reynolds will introduce the Obama presidency against the backdrop of America's epic, tangled history. David Reynolds is professor of international history at Cambridge University and a fellow of the British Academy. His most recent book is America, Empire of Liberty: A New History.
The Future of Christianity [Audio]
Speaker(s): Diarmaid MacCulloch | Barack Obama came to office determined to change America's relations with the Arab and Islamic worlds. The Arab world has responded to his message of "mutual interest and mutual respect" with enthusiasm and conviction. Part of the success of Obama as a communicator lies in the sensitivity he shows to recent Arab history. This lecture will examine the Obama factor in addressing the many challenges facing US policy towards the Mid East, and Arab relations with the
LSE Literary Festival - War Stories: How to bring the battle to the book? [Audio]
Speaker(s): Stephen Grey, Andrew Mueller, Ros Wynne-Jones | A discussion of war journalism in its historical context. How the great correspondents of the past managed to tell the world about conflicts around the globe. And how in the digital age, governments and the military seek to prevent free reporting of war. Can we ever really report objectively and openly on war?

Speaker(s): Professor Tim Jackson | This lecture will discuss a new vision of shared prosperity. It will consider the capability of human beings to flourish within the ecological limits of a finite planet. Tim Jackson is professor of sustainable development at the University of Surrey and economics commissioner on the UK Sustainable Development Commission.
China's 21st Century Market Authoritarian Challenge [Audio]
Speaker(s): Stefan Halper | Beyond the military and economic challenge presented by Beijing, there lies a battle of ideas. China's market authoritarian model promises to shape the developing world in the 21st Century offering both new modes of governance and a path around the West. What does this mean for the Enlightenment ideals that have informed Western progress for some 200 years? What does it mean for the millions seeking a better life across the Third World?
Cities Under Siege [Audio]
Speaker(s): Stephen Graham | Cities have become the new battleground of our increasingly urban world. From the slums of the global South to the wealthy financial centres of the West, Cities Under Siege traces how political violence now operates through the sites, spaces, infrastructures and symbols of the world's rapidly expanding metropolitan areas.
