Although now that I am on joomla 1.5, I am hoping the developer will push for the Joomla 1.5 Native version and not legacy because I refuse to run anything in the legacy mode. So in the mean time, I will have to use google's method.
With "Xmap" now registered in the "Components" menu, it took only a couple of minutes more to create an Xmap Sitemap, configure it using the Ajax interface included in Xmap (backend only) and then add it to my Main Menu for everyone to use.
The default configuration settings turned out to be just fine. There are options that I haven't yet tried for customizing the associated CSS and installing Xmap-related extensions.
I took a chance and downloaded the new Xmap 1.1 Beta. It installed easily and within minutes I had a site map suitable for my small business website.
I wanted a sitemap that could encorporate the fire board forum. I looked at this site and finally I found the right map. The x-map did the trick. It has alot of available extensions. I must say that since I´m a beginner att this I found it a bit tricky to get work in the beginning. But after checking it through and testing my way forward it is actually wery logic and easy to operate. So I can warmly reccomend this product to all the users of this forum. Also Mr Vargas that have developed this product is wery helpful which is a plus.
It takes a little bit of playing around to figure out how it works, but it delivers good results.
I don't know if the 1.0.4 version offered better instructions/documentation, but I couldn't find ANYWHERE how to display the XML version of the file, though my wife tells me I can never find anything, so take that with a grain of salt. In any case I ended up guessing how to display it by adding the "&view=xml" arg to the end of the regular "index.php?option=com_xmap" address. VOILA! XML display.
Although this is a beta I did not notice any bugs in the basic work that I was doing with it. Great job!

When you were growing up...What did your mom cook for Easter Dinner?
- LiveRock Apr 7, 2011 09:14 AM
For us it was almost always a baked ham with a whipped sweet potato casserole...and lot's of sides.
Baked ham, scalloped potatoes, and green beans with almonds.
Oh yeah, and honeyed buns in the shape of rabbits...
Ham and scalloped potatoes, but what I always loved the most was the relish tray - pickled eggs and deviled eggs, two of my favorite foods! The best part was that the deviled eggs were always half blue or green from having been dyed - my siblings wouldn't eat them because of that. More for me!
re: biondanonima
Oh yeah! I had forgotten about the deviled eggs. Yum!
re: Floridagirl
Can you post the recipe for your pineapple cake? It sounds divine!
Yeah, the baked ham complete with pineapple rings, cherries and studded with cloves. I do ham, but mine is country ham with red eye gravy. My dessert is an angel food cake version called Daffodil cake. I used to absolutely rule that no asparagus until Easter dinner, but gave up on that a few years ago and enjoy roasted asparagus as soon as I see it in the stores.
re: blue room
Yes, my mom makes her pickled eggs with beet juice (she pickles beets along with them too). I hate beets but I LOVE those eggs.
What is it with pineapple and Easter? We never had anything pineapple related but DH's family tradition was pineapple upside down cake. Maybe we just didn't get good pineapple up north?
For dinner, roast leg of lamb, mashed potatoes and peas. The juices of the lamb would be spooned over the meal including all the lovely fat and we also had a crusty artisan bread. There was always a green salad, more bread and cheese(s) following the meal.
Deviled eggs during the day with lunch. :)
Growing up Easter dinner was deviled eggs and a pickle tray, ham, scalloped potatoes, steamed beans/carrots and dessert was Gran's bunny cake: a vanilla cake in the shape of a bunny head & ears, he sported a bow tie iirc and was decorated with gum drops, licorice and, shredded coconut.
re: maplesugar
maplesugar...maple sugar candy is one of the finest pleasures! It's not easy to find where I live so when I do find it, I am so happy.
Anyway...I forgot about the coconut bunny cakes we had when we were young, exactly how you describe it. Ahh, memories. :)
re: maplesugar
Ohhh, I also forgot about the bunny cake. I made it a few times when we had kids around the Easter table. Dyed coconut for the various colors, including some green grass at the base--fun and easier than it looked.
Mom always prepared Relish Tray with Deviled Eggs, stuffed celery, and a variety of pickles and of olives, Ham, Mashed Potatoes, English Peas, Tossed Salad, Mom's Homemade Hot Rolls, Mom's Home Churned Butter (yummmm),and for dessert Mom's Pineapple Layer Cake with Seven Minute Frosting swathed with coconut.
ALWAYS Deviled Eggs - topped with rolled caper-stuffed anchovies. And my grandmother's Spanokopita - made strudel-style & served in slices. Main course - 9 times out of 10 was roast leg of lamb with au gratin potatoes & other appropriate veggies. Once in awhile instead, a fresh pork roast with Czech bread dumplings & sauerkraut, along with veggies. But the leg of lamb was the norm.
It varied from year to year, generally a nice glazed ham, sometimes a leg of lamb, the usual sides, asparagus, sweet potatoes, scalloped potatoes; until I reached an age, I was mostly interested in the contents of my Easter basket.
This year it's prime rib, done by my friend and a bourbon-coffee glazed ham, from me, definitely potatoes au gratin, an upgrade from the scalloped of my youth, asparagus in some form, maybe a Southern style pea salad, glazed carrots and a coconut cake with lemon curd filling. Jelly beans for all! Enjoy!
We always had deviled eggs, ham sandwiches, guacamole and chips and a huge platter of steamed artichokes with mayo. I assume the artichokes are a CA tradition. Maybe the rest of the stuff too? We aren't a religious family, it was just an excuse to get together and hide and find eggs for us. Also to consume some crappy chocolate buunies far too early in the day.
No matter what the main course (sometimes lamb and sometimes ham), we always started with my grandmother's homemade ravioli, a tradition I plan on re-instituting this Easter.
Aperitif w/bagna càuda
Consommé or Stracciatelle
Homemade Ravioli or Stuffed Shells
Roast Leg of Lamb with garlic and rosemary
Asparagus, Stuffed Artichokes, Roast Potatoes
Tossed Salad
Sweet Ricotta Pie, Biscotti, Spumoni or Gelati
This is basically what I remember. Sometimes the Contorni and Dolce would change but we alaway had roast lamb
We never had anything special for Easter dinner, and I never thought I was missing out on something. Maybe it was a Catholic thing? Everyone I knew went to sunrise service, then had a big brunch/breakfast gathering afterward. My favorites were always the waffles and Mom's marmalade rolls (cinnamon rolls with homemade marmalade and orange zest rather than cinnamon and raisins).
It's been years since we had Easter lunch as a family -- we started going to brunch instead, much easier on those of us who attend the Vigil service and have little time to cook. But what I remember, I remember vividly: glazed ham, shellacked with pineapple juice and cherries; deviled eggs piped into intricate designs with bits of ham and peaks of dill; and most importantly, a carrot cake, possibly meant to tempt the Easter Bunny, with cream cheese frosting and macadmia nuts.
Baked ham. Canned ham. The "good" imported Polish kind. This would be studded with about 150 cloves, covered in canned pineapple rings, and then a full one pound box of Domino's brown sugar would be dumped over the top. That atrocity kept me from enjoying ham for decades. This would be served with pretty decent mashed potatoes, and a frozen overcooked Birds-Eye vegetable -- like "frenched" green beans with the little packet of almonds, or peas with pearl onions --- fancy. We'd also have deviled eggs (dyed, of course) and celery stuffed with cream cheese and olive, so I could more or less fill up on those. I learned to cook in self-defense ;-)
When I was a teenager I begged her to just let me cook Easter dinner. I made a leg of lamb, asparagus and hollandaise, baby new potatoes with parsley. My mom always professed to hating lamb. Maybe because she came from a time and culture (Boston Irish) which held that lamb had to be cooked until grey, you know, just to make sure it was really, truly dead. She didn't know that you could cook lamb medium-rare like roast beef. Once she tried it properly cooked, it became her favorite.
I pretty much took over cooking for my family, because my mom just hated to cook, and it showed.
Always a nice antipasti, pasta (often baked ziti), pizza rustica, leg of lamb in addition to another kind of meat (usually ham, veal or pork), asparagus or peas, sometimes artichokes, roasted or mashed potatoes, a nice salad, and for dessert always a cassata and pastiera, in addition to whatever else people bring (italian cookies, pastries, etc)
yum! it actually hasn't changed much over the years...

In this article you will learn how to integrate ElasticSearch into a Rails application. A full-text search engine examines all of the words in every stored document as it tries to match search criteria (text specified by a user) wikipedia. For example, if you want to find articles that talk about Rails, you might search using the term "rails". If you don't have a special indexing technique, it means fully scanning all records to find matches, which will be extremely inefficient. One way to solve this is an "inverted index" that maps the words in the content of all records to its location in the database.

This month we look at chiasmus in the life and works of the Chinese sage known as Confucius. Chinese names—and in fact the entire language—have always been a challenge for Westerners. As people in the West have moved away from Latinized spellings and adopted more phonetic ways of presenting Chinese names, we've had to change the way we pronounce (and spell) many famous names. For example, Mao Tse Tung has become Mao Zedong and Peking is now called Beijing. But the name Confucius is so deeply embedded in Western consciousness that we will forever call him by that name, even though he is known in the East as Kung Fu-Tse. Many Asians refer to him as "Master Kung."
The facts about the early life of Confucius are sketchy. It is believed that he was born in 551 B.C. Historians have debated his exact birth date, but many Asian countries celebrate his birth on September 28 (in Taiwan it's an official holiday called "Teachers' Day," since Confucius is often described as the greatest teacher in history).
Confucius tried his entire life to find a Chinese prince who would heed his advice about how to rule (the historian Will Durant called him "the sage in search of a state"). Unsuccessful in his quest, he began teaching students, who immortalized him by recording his responses to their questions. Many of his students eventually became high government officials and advisors to later Chinese rulers, thus helping the great sage posthumously achieve his lifelong dream. Confucian influence in Chinese government went on to last more than 2,000 years.
Confucius is known to the world primarily through the Analects, a collection of "sayings" put together by his disciples. The Analects were written after his death, in the same way that the Gospels were written after the death of Jesus. Like the Gospels, they were written down by many different people, and there are varying versions, some even contradicting each other. There are also widely—sometimes wildly—differing translations (more on this in a moment).
A reading of the Analects reveals that Confucius was fond of chiasmus. I'll present a number of his chiastic sayings below (with some of the varying translations), along with some occasional commentary from me.
I do about fifty seminars every year on the topic of "Effective Leadership for CEOs" and am always looking for ancient wisdom to share with modern-day leaders. This is a perfect example, serving as a reminder that a deep and genuine concern for the needs of followers is the best way to govern. While ineffective CEOs often wonder why followers don't understand or buy into their vision, effective ones seem to almost intuitively grasp the significance of this example of Confucian wisdom. The same underlying sentiment is embedded in a currently popular chiastic saying: "People don't care how much you know until they know how much you care." A saying from the Talmud is in the same vein: "Happy is the time when the great listen to the small, for in such a generation the small will listen to the great."
As mentioned earlier, the sayings of Confucius have been translated in such widely divergent ways it's sometimes hard to believe the different renderings all come from the same original source. This quote has been presented in a number of different ways, but all of them reflect the chiastic nature of the original thought:
Many of the sayings of Confucius came in response to questions from his followers. When his disciple Tzu-Kung asked, "What is a true gentleman?" the Master offered a thought that bears a striking resemblance to our modern notion of "walking the talk":
Many Confucian sayings refer to a "true gentleman" or "superior man." The original Chinese word is chun-tzu, and generally corresponds to the English concept of a gentleman: one who is not merely a member of the upper classes, but who also exhibits great moral character and proper demeanor. I've also seen the saying translated this way:
A number of Confucian observations contrast the superior person with the inferior person (or the true gentleman with the small man). And some are a little difficult to grasp without some serious thought:
When I first came across this saying, I thought, "It's a nice example of chiasmus, but what the heck does it mean?" I searched around and found a couple other translations, but they didn't help much:
I think what Master Kung is saying here is that exceptional people primarily see themselves as members of a larger human race, and only secondarily as members of a particular nation or group. As a result, they're more tolerant and accepting of divergent opinions or differing life styles. Inferior people, by contrast, are so wedded to their group's beliefs and customs that they see everybody else as either wrong or inferior to them.
Confucius was one of the founders of formal education. The philosopher Karl Jaspers said of him, "He laid the groundwork of school education, first of all with his own private school in which he strove to shape young men into future statesmen." His pedagogical method required students to exhaustively study the knowledge and traditions of the past, and also to engage in rigorous, independent thinking about what they were learning. His approach is captured in one of his most famous sayings:
This is an example of something that I have been calling "chiastic piggybacking" for the first clause is a very ancient saying (sometimes translated as "To learn without thinking is fatal"), and the second is the Master's chiastic reversal of it.
When taken as a whole, the entire construction follows a classic chiastic formula: "A without B is bad; as is B without A. Both A and B are necessary." In the Confucian view, both study and thought were essential, and neither one alone was sufficient. Here are some other translations of the passage:
At one point, the Duke of Lu (the province where Confucius was born) asked, "What should be done to make people loyal and win their allegiance?" Confucius answered:
I often mention this saying in my seminars, for CEOs and business owners often make the mistake of promoting people who, while very talented, are extremely selfish, incredibly immature, or of very questionable character. When people at lower ranks see this kind of thing happen, it almost always leads to a "disconnect" with the leader. Here are a few other translations:
Like Aristotle and a number of ancient Greek thinkers, Confucius believed that people should shun extremes and live their lives according to what we in the West call a Golden Mean, a preferable middle course between two unacceptable extremes (e.g., courage is a noble middle course between the extremes of cowardice and rashness). When it came to personal qualities, Confucius also liked to see a blending of many qualities in the same person, as opposed to the development of just one. When a person was overdeveloped in one way, and underdeveloped in another, he saw a problem:
In this passage, he argues that a reliance on natural abilities to exclusion of formal learning—and vice versa—are both to be avoided. I've also seen the passage translated as follows:
Check out the word literatus in the last translation. I did a double-take when I first saw it; and then I realized it was the singular form of a familiar word: literati. This particular translation comes from Thomas Cleary's 1992 book, The Essential Confucius.
Here, Confucius returns to the theme of the prior entry, as he answers the question, "A gentleman is all nature; what can art do for him?" (sometimes presented as, "A gentleman is a gentleman by virtue of the qualities he is born with; what role does culture play?"). His point is that natural gifts and cultural knowledge are both essential, and neither one alone is sufficient. In the language of Western psychology, he is saying that both heredity and environment are important. To remind his disciples that good birth is not in itself sufficient to make a gentleman, he added: "Remove the fur from a tiger or panther, and what is left looks like the hairless hide of a dog or sheep."
Another translation of his reply goes this way:
Every language is capable of something I have been calling chiastic shorthand, which is a way of signaling a chiastic inversion without using all of the actual words. In English we do it with expressions like vice versa or "the reverse is true." The Chinese language enables people to do it as well:
That is, petty people foster what is bad in others, and not what is good. I've also seen the passage translated in these ways:
Here's another chiastic Confucius saying that had me scratching my head when I first came upon it:
When I went to some other translations for help, I became even more confused. Look over these additional renderings and see what they do for you:
I'm still not sure of the exact meaning, but I believe Confucius may be saying that exceptional people can have smooth and harmonious relationships with others without being phony or disingenuous. Inferior people, on the other hand, can have superficially good relationships with people because they say and do the proper things, but it doesn't go much deeper than that. Expressed in modern-day language, we might say it this way:
Or maybe he means:
These are only speculations on my part, but they illustrate another interesting thing about chiasmus. Once you get into a chiastic frame of mind, you can go on and on (and while this can drive other people nuts if carried to excess, it can be a wonderful trip to take on your own). By the way, if you know any Confucian scholars, ask them what they think about this particular passage. If you learn anything new, please send it along.
Here's another Confucian saying that has clear implications for the effective management of people:
This chiastic sentiment is actually embedded in a slightly longer passage. Here are a few translations of the complete passage (I'll highlight the chiastic portion):
What do all these translations suggest? And what are the management implications? To me it's fairly obvious, and here's how I might express it in modern parlance:
Notice the two separate examples of chiasmus in this next observation, which also has many implications for modern life:
In the first portion, Confucius is saying that talk is cheap unless it comes from people who can back up their beautiful words with action. I believe Shakespeare had the same thing in mind when he penned the words: "Action is eloquence." In the second portion, Confucius cautions against action for action's sake, especially when some form of caring or compassion does not accompany it.
I've also seen the passage translated as follows:
I also found a quote book a few years ago that included a translation of the second sentence only, and presented it this way:
The disciple Tzu-Kung once asked the Sage, "Can one word cover the whole duty of man or serve as a principle for guiding the conduct of man?" Confucius thought for a moment and answered:
This ancient ethical maxim is strikingly similar to an ethical precept that has emerged independently in every culture of the world. We in the West, of course, call it the Golden Rule. It's one of the most famous chiastic sayings in history:
Sometimes the rule is laid out in positive form, as when Aristotle said, "We should behave to our friends as we would wish our friends to behave to us." And sometimes it's laid out in negative form, as when Jesus said, "Judge not, that you be not judged," or when Hillel said, "What is hateful to you do not do to your neighbor." The Confucius version is also laid out in negative form, as is clear in these two additional translations:
Chiastic versions of the Golden Rule show up twice more in the Analects. In 5.12, a pupil of Confucius says, "What I don't want others to do to me, I do not want to do to others." And in 12.2, Confucius says that one way to define love is "not to do unto others what we would not they should do unto us."
Here's another Confucius quote that puzzled me at first:
This is the way the quote has been traditionally translated, and here are some similar translations:
These translations were puzzling to me because Confucius was not the kind of guy to talk about ultimate Truth, as he was more interested in ethics, the way people lived their lives on this earth. Then I found a few more translations of the same passage:
Now things began to make a little more sense. In China, "The Way" is the English translation of the word Tao, as in the famous Tao Te Ching ("The Book of Changes"). "The Way" is somewhat difficult to translate into English, but is probably most easily understood as meaning "The Virtuous Way" or "The Way in Which Life Is Best Lived." With these translations, it became apparent that Confucius was not speaking so much about Ultimate Truth as he was about The Virtuous Life. His point, I believe, is that the most wonderful ethical precepts are only a blueprint, and that people must translate those designs into action as they live out their lives with other people.
This brings our examination of "The Chiastic Confucius" to an end.

Hello, party people!
This post will be straying a bit from the typical floral chit chat – though only a little, into the realm of a complimentary art – groovy music!
Team Venus, formed by Chris Vibberts – who's previous band played at our wedding five years ago and who once slept in my childhood bed (long story) – and Alia Beeton, are in the middle of a big, exciting campaign to raise money for their album Love On a Faultline. There's also a music video in the works for the first single "My Mister Grey". Hold up?! Whaaat? A music video?! That's RAD! These guys are cooler than Jeff Spicoli's checkered vans, man!!

I am being compensated by Blickenstaff's as part of the Mom It Forward Blogger Network.
I love to patronize local toy stores. I always find a different selection than I would in those national stores. Smaller toy stores seem to carry different items and many toys that I enjoyed during my childhood.
For me toys are a bit nostalgic but I also love a good toy that is both educational AND fun to play with. I spend a lot of time shopping for toys and picking out the perfect toy for my children.
Have you heard of Blickenstaff's?
Blickenstaff's (a family name and family brand) is a toy & candy store that calls themselves a nice cross between Willy Wonka and FAO Schwarz. They want you to check them out. They are a smaller, boutique family store that encourages shoppers to shop around and really find the perfect items.
Blickenstaff's is a toy store that carries hundreds of toys, candy, and games. Many of these items cannot be found in the "big- box" stores which means this is exactly the kind of place for me.
Blickenstaff's carries hundreds of toys, candy and games, many of today's most popular items. All of the toys, candy and games have been carefully curated and selected to help create an unforgettable nostalgic shopping experience. Adults will be reminded of wonderful childhood memories and kids will have the opportunity to create their own. Blickenstaff's really is the new neighborhood toy store.

World's Loudest Horn Heard 9.3 Miles Away
EMBED-Loudest Car Horn In The World - Watch more free videos
When he tested it, the horn was heard at a restaurant up the highway in California 9.3 miles away. As the video above shows, the haunting and massive sound is a cross between a foghorn and the Tripods in 'War of the Worlds'. The driver -- surely the bane of any morning commuter -- seems to enjoy testing the horn in abandoned tunnels and on back highways. Fine with us, as long as we aren't assailed on Broadway during our lunch break. [From: TechEBlog]

Catch Up TV 5.0
Among the many utilities that were designed to bring at your fingertips a plethora of networks and TV stations, Catch Up TV comes with an original approach to offer entertainment with a couple of clicks.
Full screen interface for fast access to videos and TV
The first thing you will notice when running this program for the first time is the fact that the main window occupies the whole visible area. More so, the logos for each channel supported by this software seem to be arranged in order, but this is only to a certain point, because the apparent alphabetical grouping is no longer preserved after a couple of rows.
Without offering the possibility to resize the GUI, Catch Up TV, seems a bit clumsy and not as easy to use as it could have been if only it had the channel and service list set in order.
Once-click access for TV service and network main pages
If you were under the impression that when clicking on any of the logos the streaming will begin momentarily, you are in for a surprise.
With a bit of luck you will select one of the paths which lead to the broadcast page, but most of them are simple links to the homepage of the listed stations.
There is one feature you might find useful, namely the clock displayed on the upper left side of Catch Up TV's main window.
A collection of shortcuts to some webpages that offer online TV and video streaming
All in all, this software solution is far from what it pretends to be, so it can only be useful for those who are looking for a fast means of accessing the websites of some well-known TV networks.

Jim Carrey labels gun rights advocates heartless motherf&ckers (RIP Jim Carrey's career)Submitted by go213mph on Sun, 03/24/2013 - 22:09
On Sunday morning, fading comic superstar Jim Carrey tweeted out notification of an insulting song he plans to release on Monday morning: "Cold Dead Hand." Here's the tweet:

Besides Bruce Willis..
Here is a good actor worth supporting over Jimmy.

"Cyril" pronounced "see real". I code stuff.
"To study and not think is a waste. To think and not study is dangerous." -- Confucius
Yeah, he's laughing all the way to the bank. Oh no, no more career? I guess I'll go console myself by laying in a bathtub of money.
Doesn't He Have An Autistic Kid?
Doesn't he and his wife go around bitching about vaccines? Isn't that the SAME Jim Cissass, I mean Carrey?
not his kid..
jenny mccarthy's son was damaged from vaccines-her then husband (and father, john ashor) left her over it.
at a very low time in her life, jimm carey jumped in un-afraid.
jenny searched out and applied many/every possible allopathic & alternative strategy.
the relationship (with carey) didnt work out, but
she has gone on to share! speak out and write out about her journey looking for solutions (none dare say cure) to her sons vaccine induced autism.
the rabbit hole is deep: we all wake up with 'found' pieces of the puzzle along the way..
AND i am sorry to see that carey is still sleeping..or, possibly, going along with his career handlers promotional game plan: they both took a career blow for speaking out against vacc's..
I'd bet on the "being handled" thing
What, is Jim Carrey trying to
What, is Jim Carrey trying to unseat President Obama as the countries best gun salesman?

"Fully half the quotations found on the internet are either mis-attributed, or outright fabrications." - Abraham Lincoln
Now I know witch one was DUMBER
Historically speaking;
Weren't actors shunned and viewed as scum? I'm starting to understand why. There's something wrong with a person who's "craft" is to pretend to be something they aren't.
Carrey can't hold a candle to Carlin!
Nuff said.
I remember him mocking Charlton Heston
Doing an impression of him creeping about with a gun like some clown. That was really my only strike against him for a long time, but it soured me a lot because it was a whole caricature based on nothing other than Charlton Heston doesn't hate guns. It was like making fun of someone for having an innie belly button, not quite special enough to make a joke out of unless you're going out of your way to dump on the issue.
Defend Liberty!
He had a few funny movies and
He had a few funny movies and a bunch of trash. He has always appeared to be a bit nuts. I will never understand why people like him feel the need to jump into only certain issues. If saving life is a concern for him why doesn't he sing about the 300,000 abortions that killed babies last year?
And just how heartless is he
This is a very violent country. It's very heartless of him to imagine as an improved world this same violent culture we live in, but leaving women and persons with physical disabilities defenseless against whoever is physically stronger than them. That's disgusting.
Defend Liberty!
add him onto the list with
stallone and other sell out actors turned gun grabbers
good riddance, i loved him on in living color , but those times are long gone.
"He's this eccentric Ghandi-Like figure that you cant touch with the normal bribes that people respond to."

I think he should watch the Truman Show
The protagonist (played by Jim Carrey) lives a nice, safe life, yet in the end he chooses freedom - warts and all.
When we try to pick out anything by itself, we find it hitched to everything else in the Universe.
~ John Muir
"liberals" are as heartless/violent as they come
But they consider themselves to be enlightened/peaceful/caring because they let the state do their dirty work for them. I.E. they're cowards who peaked in 6th grade and still want a mommy/daddy to look over them. And whatever mommy/daddy do must be good/right. So if their lord/savior (Stepin Fetchit) slaughters unseen children in some far away land (damn near every FN week), then he must have had good reason. And anyone who mentions such things to them is just being mean - that's big people talk.

jimmy boy... you're an embarrassment of a Canadian, and we DON'T want you back. Loooohoooooooooo-zeherrrrrrrrrrrr.
Jim's getting slammed on this site
Jim's getting slammed on this site
Screw Jim
Want an actor that is better looking, WAY more manly, and has a good sense of humor to boot? Look no further than Bruce Willis. He's one of the few in Hollywood that isn't a panty-waisted, nanny-statist, crybaby mouth piece for Big Govt. How can you not love a guy who's said this:
"I'm a Republican only as far as I want a smaller government, I want less government intrusion. I want them to stop s******* on my money and your money and tax dollars that we give 50 percent of every year. I want them to be fiscally responsible and I want these g****** lobbyists out of Washington. Do that and I'll say I'm a Republican . . . I hate the government, OK? I'm apolitical. Write that down. I'm not a Republican."
"I think that you can't start to pick apart anything out of the Bill of Rights without thinking that it's all going to become undone. If you take one out or change one law, then why wouldn't they take all your rights away from you?"
I'm reaching up and reaching out.
I'm reaching for the random or what ever will bewilder me.
And following our will and wind we may just go where no one's been.
We'll ride the spiral to the end and may just go where no one's been.
Spiral out.
Somehow this strikes me as
Somehow this strikes me as exactly like him though.
To climb the mountain, you must believe you can.
I will never watch another one of this man's movies...
And I use the word man loosely. How dare he think that he is so much smarter than everyone else. He is willing to sell his own neighbors out to these International Banksters. Well Jimbo, no more movies of you in my house, that's a promise.
His message is not to you & me
He is addressing the NWO, demonstrating that he will remain forever a lackey.
It's the same reason why Snoop Dog changed his name to Snoop Lion. Something's a-coming, something big, and the celebrities' suck-up convoy has shifted into another gear.
Snoop Lions new release is
Snoop Lions new release is called "No Guns Allowed".
Interesting, thanks
Things that make you go hmm (not the C&C "hmm").
Why doesnt he tweet about the DRONE PROGRAM
A lot more people are affected by the drone bombings than guns in America.
At least when someone uses a gun to kill someone the are doing it on their own dime.
Sad thing is when the Parasitic Federal Government kills a bunch of brown people in the middle east it's financed though the taxpayers pocket and consented through mindless Kim kardasian and nascar brains.
oh Jim wake up that once so funny brain of yours
One of the biggest pitfalls in a "movment" is the temptation to get cultish about it and refuse to realize that it is only part of the picture. -Joel Salatin ; You Can Farm pg 202

Never cared for the dude.

fresh, lively & so originally funny back in the day..
not sure why he even bothers
not sure why he even bothers touching on the subject.. ive been a big fan of his for quite awhile but hes not being very intelligent or even has an informed opinion. he's just blurting out crap. But ya his career is dwindling.. the whole style of his humor got worn out.. even ben stiller too who was making a new movies every week.. just an ignorant statement

Provides maximum static control. For use on carpet, hard floors, cabinetry, work stations, CRT screens, paper, glass, fabrics, plastics and other materials. One quart (32 oz.) bottle includes pump trigger spray for efficient application. 12 bottles per case. Mfr. #2010.
I purchased 2 of the 32 oz bottles as an interim to getting mats. The product works as stated. I used this on rugs in a very dry heavy static environment. Just spraying with a mist on the rugs reduced the static to safe levels for my computers and severs. I will continue to use this outside the office and computer area to reduce static prior to entering the room.

Fall 2014 Office HoursWednesday/Friday 12:30 - 2 p.m.
Russ Nordman was born in Charles City, Iowa in 1960. He received his M.F.A. from the University of Iowa in 1991. At Iowa he studied with Hans Breder, an internationally recognized video artist. After graduate school Russ was an artist-in-residence at the Sanitary Fill Company in San Francisco. From 1994 to 1996, Russ Nordman became a Studio Manager for Bill Viola, assisting on numerous works and exhibitions including exhibitions at the Tate Gallery, the Van Abbe Museum in the Netherlands and at the American Center in Paris.
Later Russ returned to his native state of Iowa to study Film and Video Production at the University of Iowa. While in Iowa, Russ partnered with Hans Breder to form a digital based performance group called "Liminoid Laboratory". This group performed in a number of places including Experimental Intermedia in New York and at St. Petri Kirche, Dortmund, Germany. In 2001-2002, he was Visiting Professor and Head of the Intermedia and Video Art area in the School of Art and Art History at the University of Iowa.
Since 2002 Russ Nordman has been an Associate Professor of Intermedia and Digital Art at the University of Nebraska-Omaha. In his work he transforms observations of the ordinary and the everyday into contemplative and imaginary commentary on the human experience. His work has been exhibited across the globe, including the California Museum of Photography, the Des Moines Art Center, and the Bemis Center for Contemporary Arts. In 2005 he created Echotrope, a nomadic arts organization, with his artistic partner and wife Jody Boyer. Echotrope aims to expand the presence of experimental film, video and new media art in the midwest.
Artist's Statement
In a short essay "Primal Sound" written in 1919, Rainer Maria Rilke reflected upon an experience he had as a boy doing an experiment with his science class. Rilke's science teacher, interested in recent technology, had the class set out to make a phonograph. Using wax, a cardboard cylinder, needle and funnel with a diaphragm they created etchings on a surface that they could then play back. As an adult thinking back on the experience what Rilke found unforgettable was not the fact that their voices had been recorded but was instead the physical markings on the cylinder.
If this mark made in wax could be a storage medium that captured sound, what other pre-existing marks in nature could do the same? Rilke considered the coronal suture of the skull, the place where the plates of the skull meet. What kinds of sound or words are left in this mark affected by the thoughts and life experiences that made the skull? Could this mark produce something unique only because of the circumstances that created it?
This 'experiencing' and 'experimentation' is the conceptual environment I try to work within. There are 'recordings' or material in our environment both nature and person made that hold information that can lead to a truth. This is also an approach to art many of the Russian Constructivists had. Through machine and modernity it is not that nature is contained or won but rather nature would reveal that its edges are always expansive never narrowing. A. Toporkov, a constructivist, would say it is as if "…the horizon widens as the sun rises." I believe this is the ideal many of us involved in the media arts hold the ability of our tools for capturing moments in time. However like the coronal suture of Rilke our modern experience is created by the good and the bad, life. My hope is that I make work that speaks of these experiences.
I seek a practical application using this material combined with my experience an art maker and hunter of traces and incidentals. The story of coronal suture told me that there were other ways of using this material I gather to collage. Through the use of camera, microphone, and computer, I can focus on one component, the body, and how everything else seems to be in constant relation to it. Creating art through the means of time-based image making is an application of personal experience. This experience then goes is out into my community becoming the practical application.
When, in the essay, Rilke thought about what kind of sound this coronal suture might make he became overwhelmed and instead took his thoughts in another direction. Why is that? Perhaps because in trying to understand how this mark might sound it is as if that coronal suture in your own skull starts to reply. Deciphering it is the challenge of being an artist.

When we first set out on this trip, our aim was to help Pastor Jay reach out to the community children who do not currently come to the churches. That is exactly what we got to do today. At 9am, we loaded into our bus and went out to a very poor sugarcane village. One of the 6 churches planted by Jay was in this village, and we got to use today to put on a day of...Read More

Maybe it will be but I can just go to the store on Fairfax and pick one up probably since at most stores they've been sitting. and they might do a restock online. I wouldn't even go for it though since it's so ugly.

They hail from North Carolina and are made up of three members, Phonte, Rapper Big Pooh, and 9th Wonder (producer). Their debut, The Listening, has a spot somewhere in my top 10 hip-hop albums of the 2000's. Best songs off the album, imo, are For You, Whatever You Say, and The Getup. If you are looking for a break from the T-Pain/Ne-Yo/whatever else is on the radio BS, I suggest you give this album a listen. Another cool thing about the album, it plays through like a radio station (similar to Snoop Dogg's debut Doggystyle, although the comparisons between the two stop there), so it makes for an entertaining listen.
One more tidbit about Little Brother. After the release of their second album The Minstrel Show in 2005, BET refused to play the single (Lovin' It) on their station, claiming Little Brother was too "conscious." It's pretty sad that BET uses that as a reason not to play their videos, considering the messages some of the other artists they play send with their music.
9th wonder is sick.

we sell work well our high carbon strikers
however some people want to buy the lowest
priced flint (Ohio Flint from Flint Ridge),

We suggest you base your
decision on the following:
- Lowest Priced - Pick the Ohio Flint
- What the western Indians used - Pick Western Chert
- Reportedly "the best flint available" - Pick Imported Brandon Flint

Technical discussion on
The Difference Between FLINT and
Minerals The Silica
Minerals are the natural crystalline materials
that form the Earth and make up most of its
rocks. The most important group of minerals
involved in the formation of flints/cherts is
the Silica Group. This large group includes all
minerals with the primary chemical formula 5i02
(silicon dioxide) and is most abundantly
represented in nature by pure quartz and its
many cryptocrystalline forms.
Cryptocrystalline Quartz
Cryptocrystalline quartz is simply quartz whose
crystals are so small that they can only be seen
with the aid of a high-power microscope. It is
formed geologically from silica that has
dissolved from silicate materials. Over
geological time, this amorphous silica gel
dehydrates to form microscopic crystals and
eventually becomes what we know physically as
rock. Cryptocrystalline quartz occurs in many
varieties. These varieties have been named based
on their color, opacity, banding and other
observable physical features. Technically
speaking, the two varieties that account for the
vast majority of "flint" artifact materials are
chalcedony and chert.
Chert is composed of larger crystal particles
and has a specific gravity similar that of pure
quartz. Due to impurities and larger particle
sizes, chert is somewhat less "quartz-like" than
chalcedony. Chert is duller and more opaque than
chalcedony and its luster ranges from non-existant
to very waxy, depending on the individual rock
So what is flint? By mineralogical definition,
flint is simply black chert. It appears that the
term "flint" was originally applied to the high
quality black cherts found in England. Over the
years names have evolved for local chert
formations/deposits that may include the word
"flint" and technically speaking these would be
incorrect more often than not. The reality of
the flint verses chert debate is that in most
cases it is something like "splitting hairs",
there really is very little difference,
chemically speaking. Artifact collectors tend to
call materials that have a more waxy luster
"flints" and those which have less luster to no
luster "cherts". The difference between them
lyes in their purity relative to pure quartz and
their matrix particle size. The smaller the
particle size and the purer the material, the
more likely we collectors would be to call the
material flint. To a purist, we would be wrong.
A generalist would say "close enough".

Kerry Washington looked stunning at last night's 2014 BET Awards, where she made her first live television appearance since giving birth to her daughter in April.
Kerry is one of the most private celeb moms out thereshe kept the birth of daughter Isabelle under wraps for 11 daysand we really admire the Scandal stars ability to be so calm, cool, and collected about the craziness that is new mom-dom. She's firm, but never abrasive, about her desire for privacy.
In fact, when asked about her post-baby-career during a chat with The Los Angeles Times, Kerry said, So tricky because you know I don't talk about this stuff. I feel really, really blessed. I just feel really blessed that Im kind of living extraordinary dreams come true in my work life and in my personal life.
The real-life Olivia Pope's new-mama glow is definitely evident in this summery Dolce & Gabanna dress and white pumps. Such happiness!

Lobster Stew Recipe
- ptcandy Mar 18, 2007 02:57 PM
I am looking for a good recipe for lobster stew. Not your typical tourist trap stew that tastes like warm milk and little bits of a stringy substance that's supposed to be lobster but the coronary one thats half butter, half cream with a little zing to it without overpowering its namesake. The stew that hardens the arteries before you finish the bowl. If you happen to know of a restaurant that serves the kind of lobster stew I am looking for, please pass it on as well. Thanks.
My version: Marinate a pound of cooked lobster meat in sherry about an hour. Melt 2 sticks of butter in a double boiler. After butter is melted add some finely chopped garlic (as much zing as youn want). Drain lobster, & add to butter. Add more sherry (as much extra zing as you want). Add 2 pints half & half or cream. Warm thru. For best tasting results, I like to refridg. overnight right in top of double boiler. Butter should harden. Re-heat over double bioler next day. Sorry forgot to mention season w/ salt & pepper to your liking while cooking. Very healthy. good luck.
re: Doug Mc.
will give it a try
Boil 2 1lb Maine lobsters and remove meat immeadiately, ssving also the tomalley (liver), the coral and thick white substance from inside the shell. Using a heavy kettle, simmer the tomalley and coral in 1/2 cup butter for about 8 minutes. Then add the lobster meat cut in fairly large pieces. Coo all together slowly using a low heat for about 10 minutes. remove from heat or pus to back of stove and cool slightly. Then add very slowly, 1 quart rich milk ,(half and half), stirring constantly. Allow the stew to stand, refridgerated, 5 or 6 hours before reheating for serving. this is one of the secrets of truly fine flavor. It's called aging. Serves 4
I think this came from the Boston Globe some time ago - Jasper Whites Lobster and Cape Scallop Chowder - AWESOME!!
4 oz slab bacon (rind removed andbacon cut into small pieced)
1/4 cup unsalted butter
1 lrg onion, coursly chopped
1 tsp chopped fresh thyme
2 tsp hungarian paprika
1 1/2 lbs all purpose potatoes (coursely chopped)
2 cups chix stock
2 cups water
1/2 lb cooked lobster meat
1/2 lb cape scallops
1 1/2 cups heavy cream or more if needed
salt/pepper to taste, 2 tblsp choppped fresh parsley, 2 tblsp choppd fresh chives.
In a lrg flameprooof cassorole, render bacon until it is crisp and brown. Pur off all but 1 tblsp of the fat. Leave the bacon in the pan. Add the butter, onion and thyme. Coook, stirring occasionallly, for 8 minutes or until the onion is soft but not brown. Sprinkle with the paprika and cook for 1 min more. Add the potatoes, stock and water. The broth should barely cover the potatoes, add more water if necessary. Bring to a boil, cover the pan and cook the potatoes for 12 minutes or until they are partially done. If the broth hasn't thinkened slightly, smash a few potatoes against the side of the pot and cook a minute or two longer. Remove the pan from the heat and stir in the lobster, scallops and cream, salt and pepper. Let the chowder sit at room termp for up to 1 hour to allow the flavor to meld. Reheat the chowder over low heat without letting boil. Use a slotter spoon to mound the lobster, scallops, onion and potatoes in a the center of large soup plates and ladle the broth over them. Sprinkle with parsley and chives.
Enjoy, I've made several times and everyone is always in heaven.
re: lexpatti
Just tried this recipie---outstanding!!!!
Everyone is raving about it.
My favorite Lobster Stew restaurant is in Wells, Maine -- Lord's Harborside Restaurant. The lobster stew is amazing, each bowl is made to order. When it arrives, all you see is the clear yellow layer of melted better on top. Once you dip your spoon into the soup you'll see the rich cream underneath with tons of lobster bits. Every year I trek from NYC up to Maine just for this lobster stew. (been going with my friends for over 10 years)
re: SupaPooh
Ohhh....Lord's is THE place!! My only favorite restaurant dish is the lobster stew!! I'm trying to make my own right now.
Purists believe that lobster stew should consist of lobster and the stew broth. The Christian Science Monitor went to Monhegan Island in Maine and returned with this recipe. It has been a Christmas Eve staple in my family for 10 years. http://www.csmonitor.com/2000/0119/p1...
This will turn your arteries rock hard. Steam the lobsters (if your going to just do a stew, I would settle for more, smaller lobsters rather than fewer, larger ones). Steam them no more than 5 minutes. Shell them, saving all roe and green stuff. Toss the legs and whatever shell pieces you like back in the steaming water and simmer as long as you like. Chop the tails coarsely, leave the claws whole, separating the knuckle pieces..unless you are using big lobsters. Saute shallots and some mushrooms in plenty of butter. Add some sherry and some of the lobster shell stock. As it reduces, add the roe and green stuff and stir to mix it. Add a little chopped flat leaf parsley, a few turns from the pepper grinder, then a pint of heavy cream. Reduce it to your preferred thickness, add the lobster meat...its done within 5 minutes or less. Serve with fettucine, papardelle, or wide egg noodles...or a crusty bread. For dessert, take an extra fish oil capsule...or lipitor if you need it.

- Love current menu items at Prasino'sTarheelborn1VIPDined on 11/15/2014We had an outstanding dining experience at Prasino's on Saturday night. I loved the Short Rib entree and my daughter loved the Lamb Spaghetti. My husband is a big fan of the hamburger so we were all very pleased with our dinners. Service was stellar start to finish and even though I had the option to pay with my phone it was not necessary since the bill came just at the right time.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Nice neighborhood restaurant with good good.MelissaNDined on 11/13/2014This is a nice week night spot or casual weekend meal. Its a quiet restaurant. My only complaint is that our server wasn't very knowledgeable about the wine list.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.

Our waiter knew to bring the little one her food quickly. All of the adults enjoyed their meals. Everything was great.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Great againPattyDined on 11/2/2014I have had the hippie omelette every time I've gone because it is so good. Love the tomato jam. Service is prompt. I've only been there for breakfast and am happy that they take reservations at that time of day because there is always a wait on the weekends.I would recommend this to a friend.

- Unique menuLfdaveDined on 10/25/2014Have eaten there several times. Some risk in ordering off pretty unique menu. Have not found a cocktail to my liking but soaps are always very good.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Clean Eating Made Funlove2eatDined on 10/25/2014A great place in downtown Lagrange for farm to table restaurant. Great meeting place for breakfast, lunch, or dinner. Kid friendly. Service is good. I definitely recommend making reservations. This place fills up fast. We were fortunate to be able to enjoy the outside seating. Noise level is energenic, so may be a bit loud for some. Some of my personal favorites: flatbreads, lobster stuffed avocado, fish tacos. Offerings include vegetarian, vegan, gluten free and yes they do have meats.Special Features:

Our entrees were incredibly delicious and the desserts swept our palates for a nice finish. The service was impeccable as well. I would definitely go back here.Special Features:
- My new favorite restaurantccoll83Dined on 10/10/2014I'd looked at all the food pics before going, but I was still blown away at how fresh and vibrant the food was. There wasn't one thing I tried that I didn't love, but the lobster avocado is arguably one of the best things I've ever tried. We also ordered the mussels to share and the white wine sauce they came in was fantastic. Our server explained how they try to use fresh ingredients and that they also try to be eco-friendly. A lot of the dining fixtures were recycled or repurposed. I also love that they had a nice drink list, including microbrewed kombucha. I don't often find myself in Lagrange, but I'd make a special trip to come back!Special Features:
- Always goodFuzzballVIPDined on 10/10/2014This place is open for breakfast, lunch and dinner. So, it's not a place for a romantic dinner but, the food is wonderful.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- BisneyVIPDined on 10/10/2014We heard good things about Prasino. The food was just ok, and our server had an extremely heavy accent so we couldn't understand what he was saying more than half of the time. I will give Prasino another try but this time I will go for breakfast.
- Tasty Selections but...OpenTable Diner Since 2011Dined on 10/2/2014T he food was pretty good but it was not hot when it came to the table. The sushi rolls came out in less than 5 minutes. I will visit again but probably when it's more people there I believe the emptiness of the restaurant caused the food to just be already sitting there and not freshly made.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Service with a spillAbc123Dined on 9/24/2014Busboy tried to remove too much from the table and spilled sushi sauce on one on our group Not a minor spill but almost shower. Busboy was apparently new.
- Delicious & healthy!GigsVIPDined on 9/22/2014Every time I eat here, I am pleasantly surprised (or not) by how good the food is, not to mention healthy. The service was great, including our server Benjamin.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Great for people who have GF issuesMNFireflyDined on 9/21/2014This is a perfect place if you have any gluten issues or Celiac Disease. I was completely happy with the menu and loved that I had more the 4 choices to choose from for my brunch. There are also vegan options as well. The food was wonderful and looking forward to coming back.Special Features:

- OpenTable Diner Since 2004Dined on 9/12/2014Second time at Prasino, this place is wonderful. The menu appeals to all - veg, gluten free, and just those looking for something a little more healthy!Special Features:
- Fresh and TastyLoriVIPDined on 9/9/2014All four of us enjoyed the meals - all ingredients were fresh and crispy. Flatbread was crispy and light and tacos amazing! Definitely worth trying once and see for yourself!Special Features:
- Great placeOpenTable Diner Since 2008Dined on 9/7/2014Great food and drinks. The specials and the salmon chopped salad were amazing.Special Features:
- Even better than I rememberedVeggiemightDined on 8/30/2014I have always loved Prasino's menu, but the service was often so bad I couldn't go back often. We went Saturday night and sat outside on a beautiful night and we were impressed again by the menu. I'm a vegetarian and found many, many options; the two I chose (a veggie flatbread to share and the Thai curry with tofu) were really, really good. The beer selection is small but eclectic and interesting. And lo and behold, we had a good waitress who knew the menu well, and was efficient and friendly! I hope our experience was not an exception this time because I'd love to make this a regular place. LaGrange is really hopping and we so enjoyed the whole outing, especially the great dinner start at Prasino.Special Features:
- Great Food and ServiceAndrewDined on 8/23/2014The food and service is great at Prasino, and so is the atmosphere, especially in the evening. The food is honestly a little pricy, and the drinks are through the roof. But I will say that for a fit and health conscious person the portion sizes are absolutely perfect. Price aside, the food really is outstanding and downtown LaGrange makes for a great walk through town after dinner. This restaurant is a must if you are in the area but be prepared to spend $100+ for a dinner for two. $100+ of which I was happy to pay, will be back soon.Special Features:
- Great food. Poorly managedOpenTable Diner Since 2012Dined on 8/18/2014We arrived promptly for a 7:30 reservation. Our waiter was delightful and encouraged us to take our time and enjoy. Bottom line, at 8:30 the kitchen closed. At 8:50 we were asked to settle up. The bathroom doors were propped open. They had been cleaned for the night. The place was supposed to be open til 10:00. We had wine appetisizers and were looking forward to entree. We were one of three tables at the time we were informed that they were closing. Bad management.Special Features:
- Couldn't have been nicerCarolsulliVIPDined on 8/18/2014I was entertaining two very special people and knew that they would enjoy Prasino. I had asked for a "quiet" spot for old friends to chat, and we were wonderfully accommodated. The service was attentive, easy going, and left us plenty of room for conversation. Of course the food was wonderful. Two of us got the evening special of halibut, mushroom risotto, and grilled asparagus and were very well pleased. Another preferred the soup and flatbread option and took home a generous portion. Such a nice place to dine in comfort and style at a reasonable price.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- OpenTable Diner Since 2014Dined on 8/17/2014Our waiter was excellent. He took his time and if he didn't know something he got the answer for us. The food was excellent.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Consistently good food and serviceTarheelborn1VIPDined on 8/16/2014We expanded our party at Prasino on Saturday night and enjoyed the dining and socializing. Everyone seemed pleased with their orders and we all remarked on the quality of the food. Our waitress was attentive and helpful.Special Features:
- Perhaps they need more serversDaw872Dined on 8/15/2014Went in on a typical Friday, they had tables available. We though how nice to get sat right away on a Friday. Well the server clearly figured she was making more off large table than a table of two. Our food made it out before drinks & silverware. We sat at the table with the food getting cold for 5 minutes while someone got us silverware
- GREAT FOR BRUNCH!!!!PangurBanVIPDined on 8/10/2014Unbelievable corned beef hash and poached which actually come with pan cakes. The "same" is on the menu at lots of places but it isn't the same quality. Real corned beef onions, peppers, etc. with free range eggs.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Great food, slow serviceNicknameVIPDined on 8/5/2014The food was excellent as always however the service was lacking at times. We were a party of 8 and one of the entrees didn't come out until well over 10 mins after everyone had their food and it was an omelet, hence it should not have taken that long. It also took an extremely long time to find our server for the check after we were finished.Special Features:
- gingerpurple7Dined on 8/4/2014Fabulous! We've eaten here a few times, each wonderful--brunch, lunch, dinner. Wonderful wait staff and service!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.

- What a Surprise!!debbiecVIPDined on 8/2/2014We went to La Grange to see a family member who had just moved there. What a lovely town. Saw Prasino's cute patio and took a second look. WOW! Were we glad we did. Had an awesome brunch there. I had the breakfast tacos. Eggs, chicken, black beans and ranchero sauce…Yummy!! The fried potatoes on the side were as good as my best at home…impressive. But, the piece de resistance….he had the Parisian Eggs Benedict. Two perfectly poached fresh eggs on top of a split croissant filled with brie and ham. The traditional hollandaise made better by a subtle (garlic?) flavor. It was truly the best benedict I had ever tasted. Thrilled to see there is a Prasino in my area!! YAY!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.

GCCRA 2014 Fall Conference
Peachtree City, Georgia
This past weekend, I was privileged to have been a seminar speaker at the GCCRA 2014 Fall Conference!
As a guest speaker for court reporters, I am always filled with a sense of excitement and anticipation leading to my presentation and, also, of course, during it. The focus during this particular seminar was on my top gadgets for productivity for court reporters.
The attendees come to these type of learning events for multiple reasons:
Having attended several seminars as a participant, I have to say that attending as a presenter is even more rewarding for me personally. I love to see eager and smiling faces, raised hands, lots of questions and sharing of information and, most importantly, forming new bonds and relationships with court reporters across the country.
Thank you so much, GCCRA, for including me this year at your convention. Cheers!
