Strengthening the effectiveness of the protected area system in Qinghai Province, China to conserve globally important biodiversity
The Challenge
From extensive alpine grasslands and wetlands to forests and deserts, Qinghai is home to a wide variety of globally significant but fragile ecosystems. Several major rivers also have their origin in the province's highlands - rivers that cumulatively affect much of China and over a quarter of the world's population. However the constituent flora and fauna of the province's ecosystems are under increasing threat from a number of factors, including: a disconnect between the protected area system (planning and management) and other provincial development and sectoral planning processes; inadequate financial and human resources; weak institutional and staff capacities for conservation planning and Protected Area (PA) management; and limited participation of local communities in decision-making, environmental monitoring and sustainable land management.
The Response
The project will strengthen the provincial PA system, helping it fulfil its mandate to safeguard its globally significant biodiversity. With enhanced management effectiveness, the PA system will better protect internationally rare and endangered species including snow leopard, Tibetan antelope, wild yak, black-necked crane and other native wildlife, as well as maintain healthy grasslands and wetlands that are important both for local resource users and climate change mitigation through carbon sequestration. Central to the project are three primary approaches: (i) mainstreaming the PA system and its objectives into development and sector planning frameworks; (ii) strengthening critical institutional and human capacities; and (iii) promoting and extending models of co-management in PAs.
The global environmental benefits of the project are represented by the following indicative achievements. First, a significant reduction in the number or extent of threats to global biodiversity from incompatible development projects. Moreover, the project ensures the addition of an anticipated 250,000 ha of terrestrial landscapes under formal protection, including corridors and new PA territory. It will increase management effectiveness at the level of individual Pas, and improve overall institutional capacities. The project will also bring increased financial sustainability to the PA system.
Institutionalisation and increased support within the PA system for community-based environmental stewardship programs improve both the reach of environmental awareness campaigns and the human resources necessary to achieve widespread conservation. Developing or enhancing partnerships with local resource user communities also provides increased opportunity to learn from traditional knowledge and to integrate modern scientific approaches with local worldviews.
Through such collaborative work, and with mainstreaming and capacity building at multiple levels, the project will increase regional and global environmental security – incorporating the protection of biodiversity, sustainable use of environmental resources, community partnerships, and adaptation in the face climate change.

June 28 (Bloomberg) -- Inflation in Germany, Europe's largest economy, unexpectedly held steady in June as the European Central Bank prepares to raise interest rates for a second time this year.
The inflation rate, calculated using a harmonized European Union method, held at 2.4 percent from May, the Federal Statistics Office in Wiesbaden said today in an initial estimate. Economists forecast inflation to quicken to 2.5 percent, according to the median of 19 estimates in a Bloomberg News survey. Prices remained unchanged from the previous month.
Germany's recovery is showing few signs of a slowdown with declining unemployment encouraging consumer demand, giving companies more room to pass on higher costs. While oil prices have retreated over the past month, they're still up 16 percent from a year earlier. ECB President Jean-Claude Trichet signaled today policy makers are ready to raise borrowing costs further from 1.25 percent next week.
"There's no reason to give an all-clear on inflation, we'll likely see significant price pressure in the coming months," said Andreas Rees, chief German economist at UniCredit Group in Munich. "The ECB will certainly remain concerned about price developments."
On a non-harmonized basis, inflation held at 2.3 percent in June and consumer prices rose 0.1 percent from the previous month, the statistics office said.
BASF SE said on June 16 it's raising prices for formic acid in Europe and K+S AG, Europe's biggest potash producer, in June increased prices for the crop nutrient.
The Bundesbank said on June 10 that "the prospects of the German economy experiencing a lengthy period of expansion are rising" and the recovery "has evolved into a broad-based upturn." The Frankfurt-based central bank forecasts Europe's largest economy will grow 3.1 percent this year after a record 3.6 percent expansion in 2010.
In the euro region, inflation probably accelerated to 2.8 percent in June from 2.7 percent in May, a separate survey showed. Eurostat, the European Union's statistics office in Luxembourg, will release that data on June 30.
ECB Executive Board member Juergen Stark said yesterday that the bank is "ready not to leave the interest-rate increase from April stand by itself." Trichet said in Amsterdam today that policy makers are "united on the goal of solidly anchoring inflation expectations."

My cousin Adrienne is pregnant, and due in November. Her Aunt is planning a baby shower for her in October. I will not be able to make it to the shower, which will be in North Carolina, but I definitely want to send a gift.
I came across the Outer Baby Blanket #106 on Ravelry and I fell in love with it. I liked a lot of the colors, but decided on a blue yarn from Lion Brand. It isn't the typical blue that you see for baby boys. Maybe I will make him a gray one as he gets older.
Here are some photos of the blanket in different colors.
What is your go to gift for a baby shower?
Peace and blessings,

A helmeted man walks past the rubbles and a burning building after a powerful earthquake, the largest in Japan's recorded history, slammed the eastern coasts in Iwaki city, Fukushima prefecture, Japan, Friday, March 11, 2011. (AP Photo/Kyodo News) JAPAN OUT, MANDATORY CREDIT, FOR COMMERCIAL USE ONLY IN NORTH AMERICA
WASHINGTON — A massive earthquake that struck off the coast of Japan Friday was the strongest quake in the area in nearly 1,200 years.
David Applegate, a senior science adviser for earthquake and geologic hazards for the U.S. Geological Survey, said the 8.9-magnitude quake ruptured a patch of the earth's crust 150 miles long and 50 miles across.
He said the earthquake, which also spawned a massive tsunami that hit Japan before racing across the Pacific Ocean to Hawaii and the West Coast of the United States, likely caused "tens of millions of dollars" in structural damage in Japan.
Laura K. Furgione, deputy director for the National Weather Service, said the tsunami first hit Hawaii early Friday morning. An 8.1-foot wave destroyed piers and docks in Crescent City, Calif., later Friday.

Most supplements don't do anything noticeable very quickly, if at all. I wasn't sure if I even wanted to front the money for this one, but my eyes were really bothering me. This works fantastic!!! Within a week the pain in my eyes was gone.

Starting last Spring and into early Summer I was experiencing joint pain in my left knee, especially when I walk down stairs. My wife suggested that I try Jarrow Blackcurrant, because it helped her with joint paint in her fingers. After taking Jarrow for 2 to 3 weeks my discomfort was completely gone and has not bothered me since. I am a believer! I am 67, play a lot of golf and exercise 4 to 5 days a week.

The benefits of weight-loss surgery, also called bariatric surgery, go beyond what the eye can see. If you are obese, surgery to lose weight may be safer than carrying around those extra pounds. If you're dealing with diabetes as well, weight-loss surgery may send the disease into long-term remission. Is losing weight worth the risks associated with surgery though? Your doctor can help you decide if the benefits outweigh the risks. Take a look at the latest research.
Weight-loss surgery improves the body's ability to control blood sugar levels. In some cases, it may even reverse type 2 diabetes at least temporarily for many years. By helping you lose weight, it may also lower your risk for other serious conditions, such as heart disease, high blood pressure, stroke, arthritis, and certain malignancies.
Researchers have found weight-loss surgery to be an effective and safe treatment for select patients with severe obesity.
All four main kinds of weight-loss surgery limit the amount of food you can eat or decrease the absorption of calories from food, and some of the surgeries do both. Each type of surgery, however, carries its own risks and benefits depending on your underlying health problems.
Weight-loss surgery is typically recommended for adults with a body mass index (BMI) of 40 or greater. If you have a serious health condition, such as diabetes or heart disease, you may want to look into bariatric surgery if your BMI is between 35 and 39.9. You can calculate yours with this BMI calculator.
It's also important to consider how ready you are to make a change. Weight loss surgery alone is not enough. Every weight-loss procedure requires you to commit to a lifetime of healthy eating and regular exercise. Ask your doctor for his or her opinion on your weight-loss options.
Try out these calculators: they're fun, they're quick, and they give you important information for managing your health.
Informative and often surprising, these quizzes test your knowledge of today's health concerns. Find out your score and learn more about these pertinent health issues.

Fort Mill High Student Arrested After Showing Classmates Nude Photos
December 4, 2013 2:20 PM
(CBS Charlotte) — A 17-year-old male student at Fort Mill High School has been arrested after police say he showed his classmates nude photos of a female student.
The female student, who is also a minor, was not aware that nude photos had been taken of her, but did admit to having sexual intercourse with the male student.
The male student is being charged with sexual exploitation of a minor and is being held at the York County Detention Center.

More about the restoration:
The restoration of Alfred Hitchcock's silent films has been the biggest and most complex restoration project undertaken by the BFI National Archive to date. Decades of damage and wear have been removed; the sharpness of the images improved; new shots discovered and intertitles and tinting restored. The BFI has used elements borrowed from seven international archives in the restoration process, but film materials from the BFI National Archive–including a number of original negatives–have been central to the project. Hitchcock's silent films are essential to an understanding of his later work and these restorations now enable them to be seen afresh and discovered by new audiences across the world.
*About Stephen Horne:
*Based at London's BFI Southbank, but playing at all the major UK venues and many international film festivals and cinematheques, Stephen Horne has long been considered one of the world's leading silent film accompanists. He has recorded music for DVD releases, BBC TV screenings and museum installations of silent films. Although principally a pianist, he often incorporates flute, accordion and keyboards into his performances, sometimes simultaneously. For more information, visit stephenhorne.co.uk.

655 Town Center Drive
Costa Mesa, CA 92626
Category: Music Venues
Region: Costa Mesa
When Roald Dahl first penned this weirdly awesome children's tale more than a half-century ago, the titled mutated fruit was originally a cherry—but Dahl thought better of it. He's quoted as saying that a peach would be "prettier, bigger and squishier than a cherry." And now, after reissues, re-imaginings, and even a feature film, James and the Giant Peach comes to the South Coast Repertory. Adapted for the stage by David Wood, the story follows the adventure of an emotionally and physically abused orphan, who, after dropping some magical crocodile tongues down a barren fruit tree, finds himself lodged inside a monstrous peach with six giant, talking bugs. After killing his abusers, they end up fighting hungry sharks, temperamental cloud deities and, finally, New Yorkers. Appropriate for children 4 years and older.
Tuesdays-Sundays. Starts: Feb. 7. Continues through Feb. 23, 2014

The benefits of this pairing are easy to spot as they are the two caster DPS souls in the calling. The Cabalist is a master of death and can give a major damage boost to an Inquisitor with a minimal investment of points. At 10 points spent, Entropy is a huge upgrade as it upgrades the damage of channeled spells, effectively buffing the damage and returns of the Inquisitors drains.

When I write my CSS code, it usually looks like the screenshot on the right: I use big text made with FIGlet (using this tool) so I can find a section of code fast just by looking at SublimeText's minimap. There are also useful comments along the code. Those comments are great while we are working, but if they were left on production they would yield several bytes of overhead.
The JavaScript code is commented too (without big text, in this case) and it also has many spaces for identation.
There are many tools to reduce the size of both CSS and JavaScript files. In this case I chose YUI Compressor for CSS and Closure compiler for JavaScript. I decided to apply them automatically just before making a commit, using a pre-commit hook.
Keep reading to see how to implement this!

for that much you can easily get a leased line and filtering - I've just signed up to Global AXS on 100MB over fiber for that price.
For 10MB on 100mb bearer you are looking at about 8k from them for the line leaving 4.5k for smoothie (or other filtering) which means you are quids in - it then slowly increments up. I personally @mats would be looking away as that seems stupidly high.

"'Violetta', as she prefers to be known, was born without arms of legs, or normal parents less than thirty years ago in Germany. She is a lady of perennial good nature - realizing that what one never possesses one never misses. Her body is well formed otherwise, she enjoys perfect health, and her senses of sight, hearing, smell, taste and touch are all developed and perfected in their separate and various functions far beyond the average normal person's.
"Violetta's accomplishments in overcoming the unkindness of Mother Nature are astounging. She rarely needs the assistance of anyone, and is able to get about with remarkable facility. She can dress herself, comb her own hair, thread a needle, sew, and perform other feats apparently bordering on the impossible."

Nobody really seemed to think much of Juan Pierre when the Marlins signed him last offseason. Fast guy, kind of goofy looking, solid hitter, but not someone who would ever, as he might put it in his hyperbolic fashion, shock the world. But in a way, he did, using his dashing speed to help the Marlins win the World Series. He led the league in stolen bases -- but to do that, he had to get on, and he did it in all sorts of ways. Lacing line shots to the gaps, hitting the rare home run (OK, he got one), running out the infield hits. But it was those bunt singles that really made him special, his magical ability to absorb a 93-mph fastball with his bat and make it crawl like a baby down the baseline while he sped to the bag. Out in center, he had a knack for chasing down balls that had triple stamped all over them. Pierre doesn't have the glove talent of an Andruw Jones or a Jim Edmonds, but he makes up for it with speed and will. And he was a key part of the Marlins' magic. Remember the demoralizing 25-8 drubbing by the Red Sox in June? The very next night, the Fish incredibly overcame a 9-2 deficit to take a one-run lead in the ninth. Then, with a man on second, Johnny Damon ripped what looked like a sure game-tying single to center. Pierre charged, dove, and somehow caught the ball two inches off the ground to start a double-play and end the game. Oh, he had four hits, a walk, and two steals in that one too. Run, Juan, run.

text: Osbourne Calls Fellow 'Talent' Judge Stern Fun but Awkward from UPI 28 May 2012 post a comment Share This: LOS ANGELES, May 28 (UPI) -- Sharon Osbourne called fellow "America's Got Talent" judge Howard Stern "a lot of fun" on Monday's Anderson Cooper show. Osbourne made the comment to Cooper about working with Stern on the NBC reality competition show, andersoncooper.com reported. But she said Stern is "kind of awkward to work with because he's very straight. He's like, twelve o'clock, doors are closed in his room, he meditates for twenty minutes, I'm like, 'Oh, shut up!'" Osbourne said Stern is very particular about all things, USA Today reported. "Picky about everything, really. About everything," says Osbourne. "'You're making too much noise, turn the music down, don't slam the door' -- like that." "He won't let anyone in the dressing room, and, see, I'm nosy. I like to have a good mooch around to see what everyone's up to. Always. And nobody's allowed in. He's got two big bodyguards that are outside his room," she added. Osbourne admitted that Stern is a great interviewer, saying, "He's probably one of the best people at dragging things out of you, and you're like, 'What? Why did you say that?' And people will go, 'He made me!'" "He's a lot of fun," Osbourne said.

Kim Jong Is A Feminist
Location: DIE CISHET SCUM
Joined Mar 21, 2012 at 11:17AM EDT
- About
I get many private messages and comments a day from twats. These are not good messages to me. They were entertaining to reply to at first but now they are just irritating. To avoid this chaos, here are some simple guidelines for you to follow. Before you PM me or add comments, think about what you want to say:
-Do not send me messages telling me that I am weird. I already know that. KYM already knows that. It's old news.
-Don't tell me my presentation is too long or that it is crazy. I already know that as well.
-Don't hassle me to sign your retarded wall or add you as a friend.
-Don't tell me that the name "Kim Jong Tha Illest" is crap. I know it isn't the best name ever, but it is what I came up with 2 years ago, and it seems to have stuck pretty well, and people call me "Kim Jong" anyway.
-Don't send me messages saying "Hi" or "Are you here?". They are a waste of everyone's time.
-Don't get your pathetic step-dad to fight your battles for you (you know who you are)
-If you are like 8 years old or something, don't even bother.
-Finally, if your message conforms to these guidelines, please send your message in a language I can understand (English) with remotely good spelling or i'll just reply with a ton of insults and probably pictures of people collapsing due to the intense amount of shit flying out of their orifices. Thanks.

I think you may have too forgiving of the proverbial phrase "pot meets kettle", you probably should avoid using phrases like that since you sound like a tool doing so
to prove that, the picture you posted applies to you ALOT more than it applies to me, if it even does at all.
you see, the stupid uneducated opinions are your downvotes and your "LOL STAY MAD" comments, and…basically everything you have written to me
next frame, I indirectly tell you how much of a fucking retard you are by letting everyone know how much of a pussy you are, thinking you can get away with those useless downvotes
last frame, that's you: "LOL I TROL U [makes 1000 accounts and downvotes everything] LOL STAY MAD LOL POT MEET KETTLE"
nice try though, you should keep going at it, you are becoming increasingly fail of a troll, and you are still painfully unfunny

Is the "Speakers" set as the default audio playback device? That setting is in the Control Panel/Hardware and Sound/Sound Panel.

@ Fiireberd: I have tried to set speakers as default, but can't (they are showing as disconnected). However I have a "HD audio 2nd device" showing, which is set to default.
When I choose the sound panel I get the following warning:
Audio Enhancements problem
"Windows has detected that audio enhancements for the following device are causing problems:
Speakers (Realtek High Definition Audio)
Would you like to disable driver enhancements for this device?"
+ I get the same error for
"Realtek HD audio 2nd output" and "Realtek digital output"
This is obviously a part of the problem, but I have NO IDEA how to fix it

It sounds like the two sound devices listed may be the problem. You can have two audio devices if you have HDMI audio from the video card. The HDMI audio is normally only enabled if you have an HDMI cable plugged into the video card.
Uninstall both audio devices listed in the Device Manager, then restart the PC and when Windows starts it should detect and install the audio. This may take care of the problem.
For the sound drivers, the drivers from the motherboard vendor normally should be used for best results.

@Firebred - thanks for the reply - I tried what you suggested, but still no sound..
After Uninstalling (including the driver), I get 3 high definition audio devices in device manager. One of them has an error code: "This device cannot start. (Code 10)". The driver for this device is signed by Microsoft (6.1.7601.17514). I now have 1 audio device (Digital audio (S/PDIF)) connected, and 3 (speakers, headphones and digital audio (HDMI)) which are showing as disconnected. I have tried to conncet my headphones in all jacks (I know I can see where to plug them in under sound/playback/proporties. However no sound.
I have then tried updating the driver using the one found on the vendors (MSIs) web page. One device is now showing as Realtek High definition Audio. The device with the error code is still showing as High definition Audio device.Under sound/playback I now have "Realtek Digital Output" as the only one connected (and speakers and digital audio (HDMI)) which are showing as disconnected).
However still no sound....
I'm lost

It sounds like there is still more than one audio device. As you have an i7 3770K, it has bult in video capabilities and maybe audio for the HDMI. That would account for one audio device (but it would only be active if an HDMI cable is plugged in). The RealTek is or should be one of the audio entries and should be your PC audio. I don't know where the third one is coming from.
Contact MSI and see if they have an answer for why you have 3 entries and what that is.

Hdmi notebook to tv - no sound
This has been bounced back and force but I've yet to see the answer.
I have a HP DV6000 entertainment notebook with HDMI output. I'm trying to use it with my new Vizio HD tv. The picture is great but there's no sound. I've checked the sound and switched it from speakers to Realtek HD. The sound bar is bouncing as if it's working but still there's no sound. I've updated the driver and gone through everything I know of but still no sound.
Now, the truth is that I did have the sound working a week ago but it seems that since my Firefox updated this stopped working. I'm wondering if his has had anything to do with is. Did some add on disable my Realtek HD?
Any ideas?

Solved it! - there are hidden 'Connector Settings'
When you open the Realtek HD Audio Manager (double-click the orange speaker in the tray),
there is a small folder-like icon in the top-right area that says "Connector Settings" (near the 'Device advanced settings' and 'ANALOG').
Clicking this folder-icon opens a small dialog with two check-boxes:
make sure the first check-box ("Disable front panel jack detection") is CHECKED -
this causes both front and rear jacks to work, without the system trying to figure-out if the front jack is being used or not.
Good luck!

GRAND JUNCTION Federal prosecutors are pursuing gun charges against two men from Delta - a felon later convicted of poaching and another man who allegedly gave him a rifle to hunt.
Thirty-year-old Brandon Cook and 29-year-old Jonathan Boyd were arrested Thursday and were later advised of the charges against them in federal court in Grand Junction.
Boyd is accused of providing Cook with a Weatherby model Mark V rifle. Prosecutors say Cook used the gun to poach a trophy class bull elk, something he pleaded guilty to in state court earlier.
Both Cook and Boyd could each face up to 10 years in prison and up to a $250,000 fine. It's not clear if either of them has a lawyer yet.
They're scheduled to appear in court again on Monday.

Cavities are practically a given today and no age or ethnic group seems to be immune.
Tooth decay is the second most prevalent disease in the United States, with the common cold earning top honors. Fortunately, cavities can be easily prevented, while a common cold has no cure; only comforting from a mother's love, chicken soup and rest.
The mouth can be a busy place for bacteria, those tiny colonies of living organisms constantly moving on your teeth, gums, lips and tongue. Of course, bacteria in the mouth is normal, and while some bacteria can be harmful, most are not. Some are even helpful. We do have to worry about bacteria that attach to hard surfaces in the mouth, including the enamel covering your teeth. If it isn't removed, the bacteria will multiply and grow in number until a colony forms.
Once a colony is established, more bacteria of different types attach to the colony already on the tooth enamel. Proteins in saliva mix in and the bacteria colony becomes a whitish film on the tooth. This film is called plaque, and it's what causes cavities.
So how do you avoid plaque and the cavities it can cause? Here are some simple tips:
1. Brush regularly
In the fight against cavities, it's essential that you brush your teeth properly at least twice a day with a toothpaste containing fluoride. As part of your brushing regime, make sure you brush long enough, in the right direction, etc. Check with your dentist or dental hygienist about proper brushing technique.
2. Floss daily
Food debris gets caught in between our teeth when we eat. If the debris is not removed, it can lead to cavities. Flossing every day is the best way to remove food debris from in between teeth. Some research shows that brushing and flossing can also lead to better heart health.
3. Eat healthy
Proper nutrition plays an important role in good dental health. Eating nutritional snacks and limiting sugary drinks helps prevent plaque from forming. Cut down on the amount of soda, artificial fruit juices and candy you consume. Good dental health can lead to overall good health.
4. Visit your dentist
Many cavities can only be detected by a dentist or a dental x-ray. Visiting your dentist for regular check-ups and cleanings is the only way to find cavities in the early stages and prevent major oral issues such as tooth extractions, root canals, etc.
5. Have sealants applied
Dental sealants are protective coatings applied to the biting surfaces of the back teeth. They protect the teeth from cavities by shielding the surface against bacteria and plaque. Sealants are most commonly used for children.
6. Use a mouth rinse
There are several antimicrobial mouth rinses on the market clinically proven to reduce plaque. Ask your dentist what brand or type is best for your dental needs. Using one of these mouth rinses after brushing or eating can aid in cavity prevention.
7. Chew (sugarless) gum
Growing up, a lot of us were warned about the perils of chewing gum. All that has changed with the advent of certain sugarless gums that actually help promote dental health. In fact, chewing certain sugarless gums can actually help prevent cavities by increasing the flow of saliva in your mouth. In 2007, the American Dental Association awarded its Seal of Acceptance to Wrigley's Orbit, Eclipse and Extra chewing gums for helping prevent cavities.
As with any good health program, the earlier you start the better. Tooth decay can start when a child is only a few months old. Taking your infant to the dentist as early as six months is a great idea. And remember, preventative care is important at any age.

We are assured as children that monsters don't exist. So even when someone sees a monster, he still doesn't remember seeing a monster. In his mind's eye he sees a "big dog" or a "large man" or a "blur at the edge of vision" — anything except a creature he knows doesn't exist....The easy answer completely papers over what happened, and the world continues on, blissfully ordinary.This is when a story has a Masquerade in place that, based on the events of the plot, should have been broken, but somehow isn't. Maybe a dragon terrorized the populace of Manhattan. Maybe aliens landed in London and had tea with the Queen. Or maybe the Sphinx came to life and led a mummy army against Cairo. Whatever the specifics may be, it seems like the world of the story should have become unmasqued, yet the general public seems as ignorant as ever. Normally this sort of thing gets a Hand Wave about the Ancient Conspiracy or some other entity erasing everyone's memories of the event, passing the whole thing off as a hoax, or at least claiming people's Weirdness Censors take care of the Masquerade for them. Sometimes, though, we don't even get that. The Masquerade just seems to repair itself of its own accord. This has the additional benefit of lifting responsibility off the shoulders of the heroes, who now don't have to actively suppress anyone who knows the secret via methods above or passively promote ignorance by not warning Muggles about the supernatural beasties who want to control or kill them.

Crepes party strategy needed or can you pretend to be my husband?
- free sample addict aka Tracy L Dec 20, 2009 05:09 PM
While I was in line at the grocery store I was looking at the Food Network magazine and saw some recipes for a crepes party. Unfortunately, it was just recipes and no plan of how to host a crepes party. My idea is to make several dozens of crepes ahead of time, warm them up before the party and serve them from a warming tray or chafing dish. My friends (about 8 of us) and I usually have themed potluck style dinner parties, so I was thinking of having each guest bring one or two fillings. My first question is this a good idea or would crepes made at the party be better? The second question is should we have dessert crepes as well or do something else like chocolate mousse? I prefer make in advance menus as I have a small kitchen. However, I am not ruling out making crepes at the party because I can host the party at the condo club house. The dining room is kind of dated, but it has a larger kitchen and other facilities. I am used to talking it over with my ex, but he obviously won't be cohosting this shindig. Kindly reserve your comments if you are not fond of potlucks or Food Network. Thank you in advance.
I don't have a recipe in mind but definitely have seen multiple recipes that call for making the crepes ahead and then reheating. You could make them ahead and then have various fillings ready so people could customize them. Undoubtedly what you have in mind.
The fact that this is commonly referred to tells me you would have a good quality crepe. And it would not be worth being under time pressure the night of your event.
I think the recipes recommend putting something between the completed crepes to store them. A piece of parchment or wax paper? So you can separate them without them sticking to each other.
I love the idea of a crepes party..you can make them ahead and separate them or if you want to, go ahead and make them at the party...why not do one dessert crepe and something else...chocolate mousse crepe and fresh fruit? I made cinnamon oatmeal crepes with peanut butter pastry creme and peanut brittle a few months ago that was pretty good.
I really like your crepe party idea and your preliminary plan looks to be sound in my judgment. Perhaps you could provide some sour cream, cottage cheese goat cheese, cream cheese, and other items that might compliment the fillings each of your guests plan to bring. I think a wide open crepe party, with both sweet and savory fillings, could be a lot of fun with little more than perhaps a good soup, some good wine and a quality coffee to finish.
Will you be asking each guest to bring enough filling so that others can share their creations? That might add to the experience. I attended a tamale party a few weeks ago where each of the guest brought their own filling and we shared our finished products when all were cooked. It was a great experience. We had so much fun that I'm hosting a "come and bake bread" party after the first of the year.
This is back to the seventies for me. One of my best friends threw several crepes parties, with and without husbands. You definitely want to make the crepes in advance - they can take forever. She used to call me at midnight swearing about how long it was taking but then she would freeze them until the party. I remember 3 fillings. Mine was curried chicken with raisins and someone would make Julia's spinach filling. All our recipes came from MAFC then. And there would be a seafood filling also. People would assemble their own crepes and it was strictly buffet. I can't remember having a dessert crepe but they are easy. Start with lots of wine and crudites and maybe a cheese plate for dessert.
This is an easy party if you prep everything before.
Crepes freeze just fine--put waxed paper between them, and handle gently when separating.
As for dessert, personally I'd provide something other than crepes for dessert.
I'd want to taste *every crepe*, so might welcome a change after dinner.
Maybe you should make smaller-than-usual crepes, to allow lots of variety.
My previous recommendation for french toast, pancake parties: to use a heating pad wrapped in a kitchen towel, set on low is useable for crepes. If this setup is possible (table top, electrically outlet, you own a heating pad), make ahead, paper toweling btwn crepe batches (say every 5 crepes) would work well and keep the crepes slightly warm.
My fav filling is crystalized ginger slivers, sliced almonds and honey. Also, flavoring the batter is a nice touch. Nut liquors, almond extract, fruit purees flavor the batter well.
we do crepes parties often and for us it is a lot easier if we make the fillings ahead of time, prep the crepes mixture and sauces the morning of and then cook it when teh guests arrive. Unless everything is preped ahead of time, it could get very long and people will get pretty hungry. But we find that if one person is cooking crepes and others are plating, serving things go well. I think the most we have had is 10 adults and 4 kids for a brunch.
Make sure you have tons of fruit and maybe mimosas and tons of dessert wine.I cna't tell you how much fruit (esp. berries) people eat with their crepes :)
Thank you all for the terrific feedback. It's really nice having a community to bounce things off of before embarking on a project. All of you have given a lot of good tips and information to work with. I am probably going to have the party late January or early February. Though it is a ways off, time does go by quickly.
Looked at this again and realized I talked about storing crepes with wax paper between. That would work if you were going to then separate and fill them and then reheat. But not to reheat in a stack with the wax paper in there. Not sure if that is recommended or not, but definitely not with wax paper. Maybe parchment.
I'd have a salad to accompany the crepes. The late-lamented Magic Pan chain (Boston area) used to offer a side salad (romaine, I think) with slivered almonds, mandarin orange segments, and a light citrusy vinaigrette. This went well with the more popular entree crepe fillings (seafood newburg, spinach souffle, creamed chicken and mushroom...) Thumbs up on having people bring assorted fillings. How about making the crepes with a few different flours? You could do all white, and mixed with whole wheat, or other different flours. Besan (chickpea flour) makes a good crepe. Minced chives could be added to any of the batters. I once made crepes using tomato soup for part of the liquid but I didn't write down the proportions. You need to moderate the heat so they don't scorch.
I also have fond memories of The Magic Pan's dessert crepes - one was similar to bananas foster and I also recall a delicious apricot almond cream one. But I think I'd offer ice cream or sherbet, and a compote or macerated fresh fruit, so people could either have them in a bowl or fill crepes with them.
re: greygarious
You can find online recipes for the buckwheat crepes that are used with savory fillings in France, where buckwheat crepes are referred to as crepes salee (salted), and white flour crepes, which are used with sweet fillings, are called galettes or crepes sucree (sugared). I love the buckwheat crepes, and am always happy to find the rare (US) creperie that makes them for savory fillings.
re: Caitlin McGrath
Good info - thanks, Caitlin! I had no idea that the French make that distinction, which validates my instincts. I have a hard time using up my "alternative" flours before they turn rancid.
If I'm ordering flapjacks at a restaurant I'll always choose buckwheat or multi-grain if available, so I should really try cooking/baking with buckwheat next time flour is on my supermarket list.

November 24, 2014
LOS CABOS, Mexico (AP) - Police officials say the eldest brother of Mexico's once-feared Arellano Felix drug clan has been shot to death in the Baja California beach resort of Cabo San Lucas by a gunman wearing a clown costume.
Authorities with the municipal police force and Baja California Sur state prosecutor's office said Saturday that Francisco Rafael Arellano Felix's son confirmed his identity at the scene.
The officials were not authorized to be quoted by name. They say Arellano Felix was shot late Friday during a party held at a rented beach house. The costumed gunman wore a round clown nose.
Arellano Felix was the eldest of seven brothers, most of whom have died or been arrested.
He served time on drug charges in the United States but was released and deported in 2008.

MARTINSVILLE, Va. - Kasey Kahne is the first two-time pole winner of the season in NASCAR's Sprint Cup Series after he posted the fastest lap in qualifying Saturday at Martinsville Speedway.
ST. PETERSBURG, Fla. - IndyCar needed a nice, smooth race to open its season.
CONCORD, N.C. - NASCAR's chief appellate officer overturned on Tuesday the bulk of the penalties levied against five-time championship winning crew chief Chad Knaus, who still must pay a $100,000 fine because Jimmie Johnson's car failed the opening day inspection of the Daytona 500.
Everyone deserves another chance at some point, even a NASCAR driver who has wrecked everyone in his way, or let his temper derail his career, or lost both his confidence and competitive edge.
BRISTOL, Tenn. - If Kurt Busch had any doubt he's stuck in a run of bad luck, it was probably confirmed when he hit a bird in one of the final practices for the Daytona 500.
BRISTOL, Tenn. - Brian Vickers will race for the first time this season at Bristol Motor Speedway, and believes he's got nothing to lose and nothing to prove.
BRISTOL, Tenn. - Brian Vickers will race for the first time this season at Bristol Motor Speedway, and believes he's got nothing to lose and nothing to prove.
CHARLOTTE, N.C. - The court of public opinion has long been divided on Chad Knaus. Depending on who you ask, the crew chief is a world-class cheater, a masterful innovator, or maybe a combination of both.
LAS VEGAS - Nationwide races at Las Vegas Motor Speedway have been dominated by Sprint Cup drivers, big names like Carl Edwards, Kevin Harvick and Matt Kenseth crossing the checkers first since the inaugural race in 1997.
CHARLOTTE, N.C. - Darian Grubb sure hasn't missed a beat since he was unceremoniously fired by Tony Stewart.
AVONDALE, Ariz. - Elliott Sadler pulled up to the grandstand, revved his engine and spun his tires until there was hardly any rubber left. A wall of white smoke billowed up the flag stand and drifted over pit road, leaving the rest of the field in a fog.
