About Colorado: Denver Metro Area Region
The "Mile High City" of Denver is the largest city in Colorado and the state capital. The vibrant urban region contains over 2.9 million residents, more than half of the state's population. The Denver Metro area consists of 39.7 percent of residents with at least an undergraduate degree, not surprising considering the number of institutions of higher education congregated in the region. Popular attractions include: the Denver Botanic Gardens, Denver Art Museum and the U.S. Mint. Denver is also the second-oldest sister city in the U.S.; its relationship with Brest, France, began in 1948. Denver has an energetic downtown area known as LoDo, or lower downtown, which is surrounded by several distinct outlying historic neighborhoods, including Capitol Hill, Uptown, the Highlands and Cherry Creek North. Denver's Colfax Avenue is the longest continuous street in the United States.

Rebuilding Stronger, One Year Since the FloodThursday, September 11, 2014
Coloradans have shown time and again that we are not defined by tragedies and disasters, but rather by how we stand united to face them and rebuild together as one community. From the first rainfall in September 2013 until the flood subsided, this unprecedented disaster tested our strength. Though this destruction shook us, it did not break us.
Keeping Faith with the Wilderness ActWednesday, September 3, 2014
From Colorado's earliest days, connecting with wilderness has been part of what defines us as Westerners. As a lifelong outdoorsman and leader of the Colorado Outward Bound School for 10 years, I can attest to the importance of Colorado's wilderness to our economy and our special way of life.
Celebrating Colorados WildernessFriday, August 29, 2014
Colorado is home to awe-inspiring public lands and natural treasures. We can thank the Wilderness Act of 1964 for preserving special places like Maroon Bells, the Great Sand Dunes and large swaths of Rocky Mountain National Park. This forward-thinking legislation ensures generations of Coloradans can experience and enjoy these places — and many others across the country — in their natural states.
Wrap-Up: The Colorado Womens Forum on Economic OpportunityMonday, August 18, 2014
Our great state has been shaped and molded by the strong Colorado women who lead their communities, bolster our economy and provide for their families. One of the best parts of my job representing Colorado in Washington, D.C., is to promote policies that open up economic opportunities for everyone — and last week, I co-hosted the Colorado Women's Forum on Economic Opportunity to bring all those ideas and idea-makers together.

Associated Press
BERLIN (AP) - Germany's Chancellor Angela Merkel has insisted repeatedly that "if the euro fails, Europe fails."
Now the crisis in the 17 countries that use the euro is coming back to the boil, with Spain admitting it needs help to rescue its banks and voters in Greece deciding whether to back a party that could pull out of the single currency. And all eyes are on economic powerhouse Germany to see what it will do to save Europe's union from collapse.
There's no denying Merkel's commitment to keeping the common currency together. But that doesn't mean she's ready to take the politically difficult measures many say are needed to save the day. She appears torn between freeing funds to rescue a wider European dream and pressures from her narrower power base at home.
Which way she turns will be critical to Europe's future _ and the fate of the global economy.
The two sides of the leader who can make or break the common currency have been on prominent display at crucial moments of the crisis.
_ As Europe's No. 1 budgetary hawk, Merkel was the architect last year with former French President Nicolas Sarkozy of a strict set of fiscal rules designed to put a lid on the chaos of too many governments holding too much debt.
_ But she also has a pragmatic side. Notably, she has shown flexibility in signing up to rescue packages she initially resisted _ starting with the initial bailout deal for Greece in mid-2010.
It's certainly in Germany's economic interests to ensure the euro has a future. Of Germany's (EURO)276 billion ($346 billion) in exports in this year's first quarter, nearly (EURO)110 billion went to other eurozone countries. The full 27-nation EU accounted for more than half of its exports. So Germany desperately needs a stable market close to home.
It's also clear that Europe needs Germany: The nation's GDP of (EURO)2.6 trillion is 30 percent larger than that of France, the second biggest eurozone economy, meaning Germany alone has the funds to bail out the struggling bloc.
Still, absent a threat of immediate disaster, Merkel has shown little sign of budging from her insistence that help comes with strings attached, that thrift is a fundamental virtue and that there's no magic wand to save the euro. At the recent G8 summit of leading economic nations at Camp David, Merkel cut a lonely figure fending off pressure from fellow leaders to ditch austerity and jump-start growth.
She stuck by her hard line Thursday in a speech to parliament ahead of this weekend's G-20 summit in Mexico.
"We can only overcome the crisis," she said, "when we tackle it at its roots: the massive debt level and the lack of competitiveness in some member states."
When the global financial crisis first flared in 2008, Merkel famously invoked the "Swabian housewife" _ the traditional personification of Germany's prudent housekeeping named after a region in the southwest of the country.
"She would have told us a piece of worldly wisdom," Merkel said: "You cannot live above your means in the long term." The image stuck.
Polls consistently show Merkel at or near the top of the list of Germany's most popular politicians. Her tough stance on the crisis has a great deal to do with that popularity.
Merkel led calls to saddle Greece with tough austerity measures, such as cuts in public sector pay and pensions, as part of its two multibillion-euro rescue packages. Germans see it as just desserts for years of profligate spending, while they kept their finances in order.
But the spending cuts have left the Greek economy mired in a deep recession. Angered by the seemingly endless pain, Greeks have turned away from the two traditional parties in elections last month. They voted instead for more radical parties that have vowed to pull the country out of its bailout and austerity agreements. This weekend Greece faces another election. And if it backs a radical left party that promises to ditch its bailout terms, it's hard to see Merkel allowing Greek aid payments to keep flowing.
That could lead Greece to default and force it out of the euro, a move into uncharted territory that could undermine the entire global financial system.
The threat has held little sway in Germany. A poll by the Forsa agency released last week found that 62 percent of Germans want Merkel to stick to her tough line on Greece. And they favor _ by 49 percent against 39 _ a Greek exit from the common currency.

text: Greetings all- A few months back I asked if anyone could recommend some period books on bee keeping. Each and everyone of you who sent article and book recommendations I thank you! We have been having a delightful time learning about the history of bee keeping and the relationship with societies and cultures. There are two books in particular we would like to have in our personal library. One is in print and the other is sadly out of print. I have my feelers out at my favorite bookstores but if anyone comes by a copy of the Sacred Bee by Hilda M. Ransome. Please let me know. The other book is Bees in America by Tammy Horn. There is a delightful chapter about Queen Elizabeth's bees written by her Master Bee Keeper. The second book is how the European bee got established here in America. It is later period but equally interesting. Thank you! Tak-Tak! Since my last post on bees we now have two bee hives. We have added a "super" to the original hive which is literally a second story to the hive. The hive is strong and healthy. We had the opportunity to rescue a young queen and her newly formed swarm. They are much smaller in population but equally active. I don't think we will get much honey from the second hive but we are speculating between 4-5lbs from the first. Has anyone written articles on bee keeping? Bless Bless Alina the Saami Aka Lady Aelina Vester-lundr Sent via BlackBerry by AT&T

SECTION: Methods of studyClusters can be studied by experiment, by theoretical analysis, and by simulation with computer-generated models. For several reasons they cannot be studied in the same manner as bulk matter. First, if individual clusters are allowed to coalesce into a mass, they will actually turn into bulk matter, so they must be kept separated. Second, it is desirable (but not always possible) to conduct...

SECTION: Experimental methodsA controlled experiment involves taking two closely related situations or groups, subjecting one of them to a specific stimulus, and comparing the subsequent characteristics of both.

SECTION: Harvey and the experimental methodHarvey's discovery of the circulation of the blood was a landmark of medical progress; the new experimental method by which the results were secured was as noteworthy as the work itself.

SECTION: The development of quantitative scienceA distinction may be drawn between an observational science like astronomy, where the phenomena studied lie entirely outside the control of the observer, and an experimental science such as mechanics or optics, where the investigator sets up the arrangement to his own taste. In the hands of Isaac Newton not only was the study of colours put on a rigorous basis but a firm link also was forged...
principles of physical science
SECTION: Interplay of experiment and theoryThe foregoing discussion should have made clear that progress in physics, as in the other sciences, arises from a close interplay of experiment and theory.

This view,...

Since applications inevitably involve simplifying assumptions that focus on some features of a problem at the expense of others, it is advantageous to begin by thinking about simple experiments, such as tossing a coin or rolling dice, and later to see how these apparently frivolous investigations relate to important scientific questions.
SECTION: ExperimentsExperimental methods, once limited to the domain of psychologists and considered inapplicable to social research, were eventually applied to the study of groups. By the 1930s, social psychologists Kurt Lewin, Muzafer Sherif, and their colleagues had begun conducting experiments on social interaction. Sociologists soon followed their example and set up research laboratories. Notably, Robert F....

Roger Bacon

One-Bit Audio: An Overview
An overview of 1-bit audio processing is presented. Several characteristics of the sigma-delta modulator (SDM), currently the most often used device to generate 1-bit code, are discussed, as well as some simple design methodologies of SDMs. It is shown that 1-bit audio is capable of carrying very high-quality audio. The total audio production chain, from recording to replay, is displayed and its feasibility demonstrated. Finally, some recent developments in the field of 1-bit audio codecs are summarized, which show a further improvement over the already excellent audio characteristics of the SDM.

JUNE COOKBOOK OF MONTH - Suggestions, etc.
- oakjoan May 13, 2008 11:47 AM
The time has come, comrades, to pull on our boots and get to work choosing the next cookbook of the month.
For inspiration, the May suggestion thread is somewhere on this site and you can search for it if you feel the need. I imagine that all the other suggestion threads are also here.
This is the thread in which you may tell us of your love for "My Bakersfield Cauliflower Cookbook" or "Favorite Recipes from Denny's" or "Extremely Difficult Dishes Made With Hard To Find Ingredients"....whatever.
You may attempt to convince others of the merits or demerits of a cookbook.
I'll leave this up until May 20 (7 days) and then we'll move to the run-off.
Sorry to be late with this again, but I've been out of town twice this month and am just getting back to my chores.
Bon appetit!
Here's a newcomer for a suggestion -- "White House Chef" by Walter Scheib.
I found it a really fun read and has lots of recipes that sound very solid, delicious and scaled for the home cook. Broad range of mains, veggies, appetizers and salads. Scheib was the exec chef at the Greenbrier before getting the WH gig.
Scheib was the Clintons' chef for 7 years, where he says he worked w/ Mrs. Clinton to showcase what's best about American food. No longer stodgy french food. There's even a cheery note from Julia Child about how she had been a guest at the White House during several administrations and that since the LBJ administration she had not been so impressed but stated that at a recent lunch at the WH she found the food delicious.
Accessible, diverse and all recipes read: yummy! Orange, jicama and red onion salad, rack of lamb w/ peach and ginger chutney, oven roasted tomatoes and blue cheese on crispy polenta, grilled arctic char, buttermilk biscuits, jerk-spiced shrimp on corn cakes w/ mango and black bean salsa, shrimp and vegetable quesadillas.
(Published in 2007; lots of copies not checked out in my library system)
re: NYchowcook
Personally I like the idea of a book that doesn't force me to source out ingredients (I live in an area where it's a hike to get some things). The WHITE HOUSE CHEF book looks intriguing to me--
BTW are book titles supposed to be in CAPS?
re: DGresh
Hi, DGresh: The caps are so that I can easily find the titles in your posts when I tally. It hasn't been mandatory for this first thread, but it DOES make it easier for me. In the final voting, if the vote isn't in caps, it's not counted.
How about Sweet Myrtle and Bitter Honey: The Flavors of Sardinia. It was nominated for a Beard prize, and it is Italian cooking with a twist. A lovely book that I just received for Mother's Day...
re: roxlet
I've really enjoyed cooking from this. One caveat is that some of the ingredients may be difficult to find, since they are from Sardinia - I'll take a look through the book and see how often they are called for and how much I think it matters if you can't find them. The other issue may be that there are very few recipes available on line, from what I recall. Here's a thread on which I posted about my cooking from the book:
re: MMRuth
I've just gone through the book - boy am I hungry now. A lot of really beautiful seafood dishes, which I think would be wonderful in the summer. And many ways to use zucchini - just noticed a recipe for "Fettuccini with zucchin, zucchini blossoms and bottarga", which somehow I never noticed before - can't wait to make that! The list below is ingredients that might be harder to find - though plenty of recipes don't call for them, and he offers substitutes that I've tried to list as well. It may look "daunting" but I was thorough, and as I said, loads of things could be made without them, and most with just the couple of ingredients I suggest in the next paragraph.
If I were to acquire several new ingredients for cooking for this book (available on line if not locally), I'd get: Pecorino Sardo, Bottarga, Fruttato and Saba (which I dilute when the recipe calls for the Mosto d'Uva). This is his website selling them (I've not bought anything there), but there are other on line sources too:
Pecorino Sardo stagionato (or other semi-aged pecorino
)Pecorino Sardo (or other pecorino)
Fiore Sardo ("Flower of Sardinia" cheese)
Ricotta Salata
Sheeps's Milk Ricotta (or other creamy ricotta cheese)
Fruttato EVOO - amazing olive oil from Sardinia - but a v. green/high end EVOO would be a good substitute - he recommends finding a "single orchard one.
Mosto d'uva & Saba - I've found these in NYC - saba is the syrup made from the mosto, which is a reduction of grape must
Mirto Liqueur - haven't looked for
Myrtle - never found/used substitutes
Bitter Honey/Miele Amaro - never found it
Abbamele - "honey & pollen reduction" - I've never found this in any Italian mkts in NYC that I've been to.
Squid ink
filindeu ("or angel hair pasta nests")
Malloreddus (I've found it in NYC, but used other pastas shapes before I found it)
Lorighittas (or shell shaped pasta)
Macarrones de busa pasta (or bucatini pasta)
Sardinian Roma rice (it's a short grain risotto rice, so I'm sure one could substitute arborio)
Pan carasau - it's a Sardinian flat bread - never looked for it - but there is a recipe for it.
Bottarga - pressed grey mullet roe (tuna is also available, though I prefer the grey mullet)
Lamb or Duck prosciutto
Durum Flour (for fresh pasta dough to make ravioli
Salt cured cod
re: MMRuth
How sad that you never found either of the eponymous ingredients!
re: The Dairy Queen
So true! Though, I could have gotten the honey on line, but there weren't any recipes that were particularly calling to me the get me to do that. Same w/ the myrtle, though I gather you can buy myrtle plants ....
re: MMRuth
I found bitter honey (miele amaro) on line by searching for it. Can't find it anywhere out here in the usual snooty gourmet shops.
re: MMRuth
is saba an alcohol product?
re: NYchowcook
I don't believe so, but I'll check. I think it's more like a balsamic vinegar.
re: NYchowcook
no alcohol in sab, it is an intensely concentrated, almost grape syrup light vinegar. It is sometimes referred to as Italian cough syrup. Fab with fruits
re: MMRuth
It's also good with panna cotta.
re: Father Kitchen
Oh yeah! I got that in April and have been slowly enjoying it. I made the Tibetan Momos last weekend, see the post on Home Cooking with photos. The Romaine salad with hot beef dressing is a snap to make and wonderful. It may be too new for many libraries to have but if you ar a D&A fan it is definitely a book to own.
My suggestions are the MORO cookbooks, which specialise in Spanish/Moorish cuisine. The beauty of these books is that they combine tapas favourites with more inventive recipes from the Muslim Mediterranean. Their paellas are to die for and I've made the fiduea several times. I'd like to cook more widely from them though.
I'd also like to nominate the RIVER CAFE EASY cookbooks which are I think known as ITALIAN EASY in the States. Simple yet sophisticated recipes using quality ingredients which are perfect for summer, and for those of us who work full-time. Authors Ruth Rogers and Rose Grey run the wildly expensive but renowned River Cafe restaurant in London - apparently their books are recommended by Mario Batali.
re: greedygirl
I'd like to use the RIVER CAFE books as well. Either of the EASY books would be a perfect seasonal segue.
OTOH, Father Kitchen's recommendation of BEYOND THE GREAT WALL sounds intriguing to me. Having loved the Fuchsia Dunlop books looking to other parts of Asia would be an interesting culinary journey.
re: greedygirl
I'd love to cook more from the RIVER CAFE EASY books. I've had really good luck with the one I have (the second one, I think).
re: greedygirl
gg: Have you ever eaten there? I was too poor to do so last time I was in London. I also really like their books. Weren't they mentors of J. Oliver, too?
re: oakjoan
I haven't, sadly, but my friend says it's one of the best meals she's ever had (and her parents paid the bill!). I should go really, but it's a bit of a trek from where we live.
And yes, it's where Jamie Oliver was discovered. He was spotted by a BBC producer while they were doing a River Cafe cookery programme. His other mentor is Genarro Cotaldo of Passione - I really like his book of the same name.
re: greedygirl
Passione is as great a book to cook from as a restaurant to eat in.
re: greedygirl
I'd like to see the RIVER CAFE EASY for June. I've seen the authors on TV and their food always sound wonderful.
re: hoosiercheetah
This posting contains the list through March 2008:
April was Simon Hopkinson's Roast Chicken and other Stories
re: jsaimd
I would also enjoy an Indian cookbook, but I don't know who is good.
re: vmorgan
vmorgan: If you want info on Indian cookbooks, there are several threads here (search for Julie Sahney, Madhur Jaffrey, Yamuna Devi, Indian food, etc.)
You can also probably find reviews on Amazon, also searching for the above authors.
I am going to suggest Penelope Casas -- The Foods and Wine of Spain or Tapas.
I am also going to renew my suggestion for Elizabeth Andoh's Washoku: Recipes from the Japanese Home Kitchen.
If there was a new book out there like Sunday Suppers at Lucques, that would be great for this time of year. Maybe Alice Waters' The Art of Simple Food?
re: Rubee
I would be very, very happy w/ Penelope Casas" TAPAS. It was recently updated, and so many of the recipes are calling out: Cook me!. And Spanish seems to be the "new French".
Sweet Myrtle is also intriguing, and I rooted for it to be COTM in the past.
It seems we should not do a brand new book because of the difficulties of accessing at the library (for those of us -- not saying me -- who have, er, a cookbook collecting problem).
re: NYchowcook
I'd love to do a Casas book too - but I'm going to be away for a bit of next month, and couldnt' justify buying one as cookbook of the month when I wouldn't be playing along quite as much. If it comes up another month I'll definitely vote for it though. Pure selfishness!
re: LulusMom
I'd love to do Spanish cuisine in July when the peppers and tomatoes and such come into season. It makes me think of Spanish food.
re: NYchowcook
I borrowed it off my friend the other day but have yet to cook from it. I think I prefer the MORO books though.
I would be thrilled with Penelope Casas TAPAS or Batali's BABBO. I was just gifted with Paul Bertolli's COOKING BY HAND and have been as riveted with it as the juiciest novel. Very beautiful book, and I'd love to cook from it, but uncertain of how accessible it is.
I look forward to really participating in June after being so thrilled to finally contribute one post in the May cookbook thread. I have to make June cooking count as in July I am eating only raw so hopefully whatever is selected will be filled with amazing food =)
re: ArikaDawn
REMEMBER! Only 3 more days to vote.
For reference, here are the runoff candidates for last month:
INDIAN COOKBOOKS: BOMBAY KITCHEN, MADHUR JAFFREY, JULIE SAHNI, CURRY CUISINE by THOMPSON, SREEDHARAN, et al (curries from South and Southeast Asia)
MEXICAN COOKBOOKS: Diana Kennedy, and an author named only "Morgan"
JAMIE OLIVER (Jamie at Home and generic "Jamie Oliver cookbooks"
WORLD VEGETARIAN COOKING - Madhur Jaffrey
TAPAS by P. Casas
SWEET MYRTLE AND BITTER HONEY (Sardinian cooking)
SPICE by Sartun
RIVER CAFÉ COOKBOOKS, by Rogers and Gray (Rodgers and Grey?) (duel choice) ITALIAN EASY and ITALIAN TWO EASY (2)
re: karykat
yea Susan Spicer! I bought the cookbook and would love the encouragement of COTM to cook from it.
(I'm lobbying from serveral fronts!)
re: Jane917
How is this cookbook? It's on my "get from the library list" (which I do with all cookbooks before I buy them?)
re: kshankar
Lynne Rossetto Kasper has a website... Many are from the book:
Here's a link to the recipe page:
I like the idea of doing one of:
Penelope Casa's books - I have Delicioso, have cooked successfully from it a lot, but am happy to do any of them, including TAPAS
Italian Cooking in the Grand Tradition by Mary Jo Bettoja.....
Elaborate seasonal menus, suggestions for preserving, and a chapter with simple dishes.
Since oakjoan has said it makes her job a little harder when we post anything other than votes in the voting thread, I thought I would add my comments in this thread instead, in reply to DanaB's and greedygirls comments here http://www.chowhound.com/topics/52146...
I agree with DanaB's suggestion to expand the Casas vote to include her other cookbooks and consider her instead as the "author of the month". If one of her books were chosen for COTM it will be unlikely, I think, that we would ever do another one of her books again because there are so many other books and styles of cuisines we want to try. In fact, it's the rare occasion, I think, that we'd repeat a cookbook author (unless, I suppose, the author came out with a new book... sort of like Alfred and Duguin has done since we cooked from one of their books...).
And greedygirl, I had the opposite experience from you. I was looking at Food and Wines of Spain on Amazon to see if I wanted to vote for it and not only did I want to vote for it (and buy it), but I took notes on a couple of the recipes because I want to try them this weekend!
re: The Dairy Queen
To tag on to TDQ's comments - the Alford and Duguin book looks beautiful. But, I hope people don't vote for it this go around. It's a brand new cookbook and for those of us library users, it makes it difficult to get and renew. Maybe in 6 months of so when the book isn't so popular and more branches have had a chance to purchase it. Moreover, it's a fairly expensive book to buy as well.
re: beetlebug
I wouldn't be in favor of Alford and Duguid's new book at this time for exactly that reason, beetlebug. It's too new to be in libraries, or for someone to pick-up used, or for there to be a lot of recipes out there on the web. Anyone who wanted to participate in COTM would have to buy the book. I agree, though, that it would be great to do in 6-8 months.
re: The Dairy Queen
That point came up pretty early on when we started the COTM, and I'm pretty sure everyone agreed that brand-new books just weren't practical for everyone to acquire. Also, we've done an Alford and Duguid book - Hot Sour Salty Sweet - (link below). I remember too being a bit disappointed that though fans of theirs were enthusiastic and voted for it, there were only 5-6 of us who cooked from it that month. I love their books too, but I'd rather explore authors we haven't done before, and maybe do their new book a while from now.
Hot Sour Salty Sweet
re: beetlebug
Oh, would love to know some of your favorites. I make the desserts often - the coconut sticky rice with mango, and over-ripe bananas always go into the banana shakes, though those avocado shakes are so good too.
Hmmm. I might have to pull that book out again. A couple of favorites I liked was the Thai beef jerky, and the spring rolls. I may have to make those this weekend. Now that I have a grill, I can try some of those grilled recipes too.
re: Rubee
Ok, it's time for me to leave LOP and look at HSSS (after all, I do have it from the library again). Looking back at past reports, I had as many misses as I did hits. There are other recipes that I never got to though and the hits were huge ones.
Here are things I want to repeat:
Minced pork and Lemongrass pork patties - I'm growing my own lemongrass, thai chilies and thai basil so I expect to make this in the late summer/early fall.
Egg with cellophane noodles.
re: beetlebug
I am a bad 'hound. I was going to check HSSS out of the library for a trial run because y'all spoke so highly of it. When I saw how huge it was, I decided I didn't even want to borrow it. I think their books are lovely, but I really wish they'd make them a more practical size and proportion.
re: The Dairy Queen
I know. And, the size makes it difficult to cook with because it takes up so much space on my table. It also annoys me because there is a lot of white space on the edges. While visually beautiful, they should decide, are these coffee table books or cookbooks. If there are going to be cookbooks, they can still make them gorgeous but with a more manageable size.
re: beetlebug
I have their book Home Baking which uses a similar format with lots of gorgeous photos mixed in with the recipes. But the recipes I've tried have been so good, that I decided, life is short, I'm going to use this book even if it gets flour and eggs on it in the kitchen.
re: beetlebug
My solution (and I love cooking from both HSSS and Mangoes & Curry Leaves) is to photocopy the recipes (I have a really cheap printer/scanner/copier at home) from my books.
re: The Dairy Queen
I think it's a good idea since it comes up again every few months as we have new participants.
Here's the most recent thread where it's discussed:
re: beetlebug
FWIW: I too was a "library user" for both Fucshia Dunlop books a few months ago but afterward bought Land of Plenty to add to my over flowing cookbook collection. There is a web site, Jessica's Biscuit, http://www.ecookbooks.com/
which sells cookbooks at discount prices. I have bought quite a few in recent months, all in brand new condition and at a price remarkably lower than most book sellers. For instance the Alford Duguid BTGW is listed at $24.00 instead of the retail $40.00. That's 40% off! It's on my list to buy next.
re: beetlebug
Oh I understand perfectly, beetlebug, I must begin winnowing my collection ASAP, although I'm lucky in that I do have space to add if I choose to. I had trouble using the Frank Stitt book of a few months back. Big & Heavy! Test-driving is a v. good idea!
re: beetlebug
I agree, but I looked it up and it's 24 bucks on ecookbooks.com
My library doesn't have it yet. I'll wait.
re: The Dairy Queen
Thanks - I think I was confused, but it does seem as if Oakjoan means to include at least the two books. But it seemed to me that people were voting for a particular one, which is why I raised the issue. Thanks for bringing it over here!
re: MMRuth
That's how I interpreted it, MMRuth that a vote for Casas is a vote for the duo, but I could be wrong. But, as DanaB suggested, I would be happy to include some of Casas more current cookbooks, the entire Casas ouvre, really, if that works best for people.
Someone (can't remember who, LulusMom, perhaps?) mentioned she was worried about the difficulties of meal-planning if the winner is only "Tapas." While I absolutely am voting for both Foods&Wine and Tapas (and the other Casas books if oakjoan is okay with that), I have to say, with summer upon us, the idea of serving tapas on a hot summer evening sounds absolutely splendid, and very Spanish, to me.
re: The Dairy Queen
Yep, it was me. I love eating a meal of tapas, but the work I'm guessing is involved in a full meal of those is probably more than I can give (with 2 year old Lulu underfoot). But ... I'm thinking that the Foods and Wine book will have plenty of meal ideas, and I went ahead and got it from the library today. Yay!
re: LulusMom
Ah, yes, it might be a challenge to do a meal of tapas while looking out for a toddler. I'm glad F&WofS will work for you. I'm very excited!

I hesitate to state that Oregon's Alamo Bowl was tainted, but it had to generate the most ambivalence of any Duck football post-season game I've watched. I can't decide if I'm excited or forlorn, which is a curious state in and of itself, for a fan as intense as I — and what you deserve. Tuesday morning is generally when my analysis of the week comes out, but I do not have the time for intensive film study, creating the diagrams and GIFs, along with writing the text in the time remaining on Monday evening after the game, for an analysis. Thus, I will simply offer some commentary and ask for your feedback, as well. In some respects, we need that before delving deeper.
It was surprising how many of the pre-game analysis comments by Coach Lee Staley proved to be prescient — and you can check them again here to see if there was ANYTHING that he shared that was overstated or inaccurate. His statements about the issues of Longhorn quarterbacking and the ability to come from behind were especially borne out as the game progressed. I was certainly thinking about his team's weakness against running QBs in the first half; he mentioned some items that we did not see in the media until after publication of our report last week. Rarely do we have a guest coach of the opposition really nail down the key points of the game as he, and we thank him again.
The GREAT
Oh, come on! Was this acted out as a movie script for the retirement of Defensive Coordinator Nick Aliotti? It was an amazing defensive performance to hold Texas to only seven points, and granted, Texas made mistakes, but I have not begun on the Ducks' miscues yet, either.
The Oregon defense made so many big stops in the running game and yet, to have two "pick-sixes" besides? That's a movie script, baby. I loved the assortment of run-blitzes, corner blitzes, and stunts executed by the defensive line that seemed to anticipate where the Longhorns were going so many times. For me, this was a statement game for the defensive line, and we will have fun breaking it down in future analysis reports.
The GOOD
We have had a much-maligned kicking game throughout the year and rightly so, yet, what a perfect time for the best performance of the season! Kicker Matt Wogan nailed kickoffs deep, and was 3-4 on field goals as a true freshman in his first extended placekicking duty for the Ducks – his progress made us all proud.
Our punting was not superlative, until we downed a few deep in Longhorn territory, and again, was quite a pleasant surprise from senior Alejandro Maldenado. Special teams have brighter days ahead, which is notable, considering the many fake punts, field goals, or two point conversions we had this year. A great starting point to ponder the possibilities for next year!
The OFFENSE
Let me start by declaring that I am delighted with 11 wins, and that we did not have to play Alabama. My major concerns about the Oregon offense were not alleviated by the performance in the Alamo Bowl. Our problems scoring in the Red Zone did not change, nor did our penchant for committing inane penalties at the most inopportune times. Our offense scored 16 points, and I try not to think of what it would have been, had the cramps come earlier for Marcus Mariota. Watching our offense in the second half was like watching the Philadelphia Eagle offense with Nick Foles, as it was cut in half. The use of De'Anthony Thomas was more than a curiosity to me, and made me wonder what the game plan was — and how they meant to utilize his skills.
Speaking of game plans, what happened to the innovative game plans of recent years where Oregon sprung old plays in the playbook to unsuspecting foes? I noted very few wrinkles in recent games but KNEW we would pop something with a month to prepare. Nope. And it is another area of concern for some of us long-time Oregon fans.
Readers, and the staff at FishDuck.com, are wondering if I've lost my mind, since I have violated one of our cardinal rules at FishDuck.com; you don't go negative on the Ducks.
This is one time I am bending the rule as Principal of the site – and because I am stating what many are feeling.
How am I going to put a positive spin on what I wrote about the offense? It's easy, as many of us love drama and suspense movie/TV shows, and the Duck offense is going to provide plenty of drama and pondering in the offseason. The football games in 2014 will have us holding our breath as the team enters the Red Zone — the element of scoring ruthlessnessly will be yearned for, once again.
Games will not be over before halftime anymore, and our appreciation of a well-run offense will increase substantially. In so many respects the drama, the suspense, and the entertainment of Oregon football will never be better!

Here's one.
Component appears to have lots of promise, but doesn't deliver.
Version 2.1 has lots of flaws and other Joomlaworks products don't work with it without a lot of hard work debugging flawed code.
1) Company has never responded to any direct email
2) Company rarely responds to any questions raised in the forum.
4) Lots of promise of K2 V2.2 with bug fixes and additional features thus far not delivered.
5) Twitter about V2.3 when V2.2 isn't even out the stable yet.
If you want to waste large parts of your life fighting with this product then go for it, otherwise find another CCK.
An additional note to say that if "Open Source" wishes to become a viable alternative to commercial product, then for god sake fix deadlines, stick to them and keep consumers/end users informed effectively.
Forget promise and make actual deadlines otherwise those of us with a life and business to run will go elsewhere damned quick!
K2 v2.2 is here, bringing many improvements to an already successful package, powering some of the most popular Joomla! websites ever built, worldwide.
Regarding your other remarks... if you understood "open source", you wouldn't make these remarks as they are pointless. Open source is about quality, security and a whole lot more important words than "deadline".

METRO editors blog about public transit issues, news and events. Join the conversation with your comments.
Three reports released this week show the detrimental effects traffic congestion, long commutes and even our roadways have on our health, safety and wallets. The results seem to underscore the need for more public transit, but will they have any impact?
The release this week of a Brookings Institution report, which reviewed metropolitan transit systems across the U.S., was widely reported, with many newspapers noting their city's rank. With House Republicans discussed cutting public transit funding even further in 2012; ridership rising due to gas price spikes; and Congress debating taking tax breaks for oil companies off the table, the timing was interesting.
In a study released earlier this week, the American Public Transportation Association (APTA) predicted that public transportation ridership would grow to record numbers as gasoline prices continue to spike.

Bengals begin rebuilding effort for 2028
CINCINNATI, OH - Following a string of losses in what was thought to be the easy part of their 2012 schedule, the Cincinnati Bengals organization has decided to regroup. The team has planned a rebuilding effort that is expected to begin reaping benefits in the year 2028.
"We are on a path to victory here that is not going to happen overnight," explained Bengal head coach Marvin Lewis. "It takes time to rebuild an organization from the depths of despair that it has experienced over the last decade, and the current year, and the next several years of despair we have coming up. But rest assured, 2028 is gonna be one heck of a great year for the orange and black."
Though the team is optimistic about the changes that will occur in 2028, they have very little details of what those changes will be. "Well, I can say that they will be big," said Bengals owner and GM Mike Brown. "For one thing, we are confident that we'll be bringing in some excellent personnel via the draft that year. The other day, I was at a local pre-school and saw some kids who I'm certain are going to be tremendous players for us to select in the draft. Really big for their age. One of them was wielding a dump truck around like it was a toy! We might go ahead and draft him now before other teams find out about that little hidden gem!"

Professional instructors at Sacramento Hang Gliding impart the joy of soaring through the atmospheric boundary layer by launching gallant gliders skyward from their Rancho Murieta training site. During the four-hour introductory lesson, instructors fill in fledgling fliers on flight theories, delving into scientific explanations as well as gravitational myths. Students become acquainted with their air-traversing apparatus during a pre-trip inspection and then spend some time rehearsing navigational inputs and movements on a stimulator stand. Afterward, students kick off from shallow slopes to increasingly higher hills as the instructor gallops alongside.
The press certainly likes California Family Fitness, granting the exercise venue such awards as Best Gym on KCRA-3's 2012 and 2014 A-List and Sacramento News and Review's Best of Sacramento 2012 Award. The press, however, isn't the top priority for the gym's staff; they believe that, to quote their about CFF page, ?awards don't greet you at the door.? Instead, they depend upon their dedicated staffers at the front desk, chaperones at the Kidz Club play zone, and personal trainers to make families of clients feel at home. Certified personal trainers take aspiring exercisers of all ages through regimens that make use of the 18 available locations' ample workout machinery. Seasoned instructors, meanwhile, hold group fitness classes, free with a membership, fostering community as they incinerate calories during high-energy Zumba, step aerobics, Turbo Kick, and Hip Hop Hustle. Nine of the locations boast pools that host swim lessons taught by certified water-safety instructors.
While hitting the gym, parents can drop wee ones at childcare havens. After breaking a sweat on the exercise floor, clients can also shed excess body moisture in saunas and tanning beds.
Since 1972, Spare Time Clubs has evolved into a 10-club, full-service family sports club company that includes programs for both adults and children. Each location varies in size—some boasting multiple complexes—and houses amenities such as lighted tennis courts, pools, kids' play areas, and fitness centers. At the Diamond Hills and El Dorado Hills locations, members can shine up in the onsite European spas, and the jewel of the Gold River club is a lighted stadium court encircled by a 5,000 square-foot observation deck. In the event of inclement weather or courts being overrun by ball-chasing dogs, players can schedule time at the dedicated indoor-tennis center, where eight fully sectioned-off, championship courts glow under the power of tournament-level lighting. World-class coaches develop kids' court skills at the junior tennis academy, students of which can practice with an unlimited number of sessions at any of Spare Time's other clubs.
In the recently remodeled sunlit studio, yogis of all shapes sprawl out on colorful mats and towels. They stretch and meditate in the sauna-like air, which is heated to 105 degrees to aid flexibility and draw out toxins. When class begins, students follow a certified instructor through 26 postures and two breathing exercises. After class, they head back to the lobby to rehydrate or head to the changing room to check their cell phones, pagers, or portable telegraph machines?all of which instructors request stay outside the studio. Students of all levels and athletic abilities experience the benefits of these sessions, including enhanced strength, reduced stress, and increased energy.
The trainers at Muay Thai Lao Kickboxing Academy impart martial arts knowledge from both nations at the academy's Sacramento and Elk Grove locations, where punching bags line concrete walls and wait patiently for flurries delivered by padded fists. A full schedule of morning, afternoon, and evening kickboxing classes welcomes men, women, and children ages six and up. Kick-boxers of all skill levels can participate in muay-thai training to achieve a variety of personal goals, such as shedding weight or walking the path of muay-thai champion.
A certified life coach and fitness trainer, Lorri Ann Code has been in the fitness industry since she was 17. Her female-focused boot camps are effective, intense, and supportive. The program features a personalized exercise program, nutritional counseling, before and after body tracking, and life coaching.

You've watched Will Castro trick out Lebron James' 2003 Hummer H2 and pimped Jeff Gordon's Monte Carlo on the Speed Channel's hit show, "Unique Whips," and now South Florida is getting the opportunity to put some shiny rims on our Toyotas. The new 40,000 square foot customization shop features a chic lounge area and of course, more hardware than you can imagine. Wrenches and jacks and tire irons, oh my! Tonight's opening of Unique Autosport South will have DJ Irie as the sound selector, Miami Heat All-Star Jermaine OâNeal as host and countless other athletes and celebs walking the red carpet. Sure, you could flip on your boob tube and watch Castro do his thing, but his new Southern outpost is expanding their customization skills to Unique Yachts and Unique Homes. You can't get that in Jersey.

The Lions of Lucerne (Mass Market Paperback)
Not currently in the store – Usually ships in 1-5 days
On the snow-covered slopes of Utah, the President of the United States has been kidnapped and his SecretService detail massacred. Only one agenthas survived—ex-Navy SEAL Scot Harvath. He doesn't buy the official line that Middle Eastern terrorists are behind the attack and begins his own campaign to find the truth and exact revenge. But now, framed for murder by a sinister cabal, Harvath takes his fight to the towering mountains of Switzerland—and joins forces with beautiful Claudia Mueller of the Swiss Federal Attorney's Office. Together they must brave the subzero temperatures and sheer heights of treacherous Mount Pilatus—where their only chance for survival lies inside the den of the most lethal team of professional killers the world has ever known. . . .

Targeting Brain Supplements?
FDA alert may discourage consumers from getting the brain nutrition they need.
Last month, the Food
and Drug Adminstration
issued a warning
about supplements
designed to help people
with concussions—
and in doing so, gave the media impetus
to write sensationalist headlines
and articles attacking the nutrition
industry's integrity. Media attacks on
supplements are nothing new, but this
one was different in that it seemed to
target the popular practice of supporting
the brain with nutrition.
What if Brain Nutrition Helps?

Inspections, Compliance, Enforcement, and Criminal Investigations
Gung Ho Corporation 06-May-02
300 S. Riverside Plaza, Suite 550 South
Chicago, Illinois 60606
Telephone: 312-353-5863
May 6, 2002
Mr. Wenjey Chang, President/Owner
Gung Ho Corporation
2701 Grant Street
Bellwood, IL 60 104
Dear Mr. Chang:
We inspected your firm, located at the above address, on March 19 and 21, 2002, and found that you have serious deviations from the seafood hazard analysis and critical control point (HACCP) regulations in Title 21, Code of Federal Regulations (CFR), Part 123. These deviations, including one which was previously brought to your attention, cause your cooked, ready-to-eat crab rangoon to be in violation of Section 402(a)(4) of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (the Act). You can find this Act and the seafood HACCP regulations through links in FDA?s home page at http://www.fda.gov.
Our determinations and your deviations are as follows:
- You must have a written HACCP Plan to control any food safety hazards that are reasonably likely to occur, to comply with 21 CFR 123.6(b). Your firm does not have a HACCP Plan for cooked, ready-to-eat, surimi-based crab rangoon to control the food safety hazards of pathogen growth and metal fragments. This deviation was previously brought to your attention in our letter dated May 23, 2001.
- You must adequately monitor sanitation conditions and practices during processing,
and maintain sanitation control records, in order to comply with 21 CFR 123.11(b)
and 123.11 (c). Your firm does not monitor six of the eight required areas
of sanitation, including the following:
Safety of water that comes into contact with food or food contact surfaces, or is used in the manufacture of ice.
Prevention of cross-contamination from insanitary objects to food, food-packaging material and other food-contact surfaces.
Maintenance of hand washing, hand sanitizing, and toilet facilities.
Protection of food, food-packaging material, and food-contact surfaces from adulteration. Our investigator noted uncovered product and uncovered raw materials in freezer and/or cooler areas.
Proper labeling, storage and use of toxic compounds.
Control of employee health conditions that could result in the microbiological contamination of food, food-packaging materials, and food-contact surfaces.
While we have noted that your firm monitors and keeps records for control of pests, your monitoring has not been effective, as evidenced by the hole (a potential rodent ingress/egress point) our investigator noted in the southeast corner of your Shipping/Receiving dock door.
You must have an adequately trained or qualified individual review your instrument-calibration records, in order to comply with 21 CFR 123.10. Your thermometer calibration records, however, are not reviewed. The above-cited violations are not intended to be an all-inclusive statement of the deficiencies that may exist in your operation. At the conclusion of the inspection, you were issued a Form FDA 483, which is a list of our investigator?s observations of deviations noted during the inspection. (A copy of the FDA 483 is enclosed.) It is your responsibility to assure that all of your fishery products are processed in compliance with the requirements of the Act, the seafood HACCP regulations, and the Good Manufacturing Practice regulations (21 CFR 110), as appropriate.
You should take prompt action to correct these violations. Failure to promptly correct these violations may result in regulatory action without further notice, such as seizure and/or injunction.
We are aware that you made a verbal commitment to our investigator regarding certain corrections. We are also in receipt of your March 21, 2002 letter describing completed and promised changes, with respect to some of the FDA 483 items, including a statement that you would complete a HACCP Plan for crab rangoon by the end of April 2002. Your letter does not, however, address, or does not adequately address, certain remaining issues from our current inspection, relating to the lack of appropriate sanitation monitoring procedures and to the lack of sanitation monitoring records. These remaining sanitation monitoring issues include protection of food from adulteration (from e.g., condensate, lubricants and other contaminants, and through adequate equipment design, construction and use). Remaining issues also include the proper labeling, storage and use of toxic compounds, and control of employee health conditions that could result in microbiological contamination of food, food-packaging materials, and food-contact surfaces. Additionally, your letter does not address the lack of instrument calibration record review by an adequately trained or qualified individual.
Please notify this office in writing, within 15 working days of receipt of this letter, of specific steps you have taken to accomplish corrections of all noted violations, and to prevent their recurrence. You may wish to include in your response documentation such as HACCP plans, monitoring forms, and recent monitoring data or other useful information that would assist us in evaluating your corrections. If corrective action cannot be completed within 15 working days, state the reason for the delay and the time within which the corrections will be completed.
Your written reply should be sent to James T. Karpus, Compliance Officer, at the above address.
\s\Arlyn H. Baumgarten
District Director

Recent Gift Hill Reviews
Absolutely Wonderful
We have rented many times on St. John and this was THE BEST, a perfect home unless you are in the $8,000+ a week budget crowd. You can trust the photos of Cielo Vista, if I had any criticism; the photos don't do the home justice as it is even nicer. The location on Gift Hill is perfect, out of town but close enough to scoot to Cruz Bay for dinner or supplies. The Star Fish Market and St. John Market are as close as a short hop to the store back home Lots of outdoor living space, who wants to be indoors in the Caribbean? We ate and lounged on the enclosed terrace. It is all screened for mosquito control but the screens are a roll down or roll sideways type that keep an outdoor feeling, no bars blocking you view. . The breezes flow through the home; we used ceiling fans and never considered AC. The pool is generous for 8 people including 3 children, it never seemed small. There are surrounding side decks and outdoor furniture. The view is nothing short of spectacular at sunset. We sipped gin & tonics each evening while watching the lights of St. Thomas. One evening we all saw the elusive "Green Flash" as the sun settled into the western sea. The house is well furnished including the kitchen. Our experienced has been house cleaning folks will pick up the products vacationers cannot take with them. With Cielo Vista we discovered many things were left for our use such as spices, olive oil, a variety of bottles of alcohol etc. No opened food packages but many things we could use and forgot to bring. It really helped make Cielo Vista feel like home rather than an extended hotel suite. We tried to follow suit when leaving. The home has 2 full, equal masters. A loft above the main living area but it is more than just a "loft" as there is a lot of living space plus a runway to a large private deck. This could work out for sharing couples who want some privacy from time to time. Below is an efficiency apt. that is nicely done with a comfortable bed, fans and AC, TV, WiFi and a screened sitting area plus a generous sized bath. We, the parents, decided to go to the apartment and we just loved the space and the privacy we needed from time to time. I found the various web sites overwhelming but the homework paid off as we all loved Cielo Vista. If this home fits your need and budget forget all the others, just book it, you will not be sorry, this may be as close to heaven as we'll ever get on earth.
The photos don't do this gorgeous villa justice!
My husband and I just returned from our 6th trip to St. John, and are thrilled we picked a new house to stay in this year. We traveled in a group of 8, and Starstruck was the perfect size and layout for 2 couples and 4 singles with four equally laid-out queen bedrooms, each with the same view and an en suite bathroom that includes double sinks (no battling over the rooms, whatsoever). Our views from Starstruck were incredible -- we stood on the balconies in the evenings, looking out on Cruz Bay towards St. Thomas as the sun set in the distance. As we told the property manager, Denise, the photos online do not do Starstruck justice (the views are the best we've had in all of our years staying on St. John)! Starstruck has a big dining table and kitchen to accommodate a group of our size, a lovely private pool, a hot tub looking out over Cruz Bay, plenty of outdoor patio dining tables in the front and back of the house, and beach towels, chairs, and snorkel gear available for guest use. While our stays on St. John are usually seamless, we had a bit of a crisis one morning with our house's safe battery dying while all of our passports and money were trapped inside when we were supposed to be heading out on a BVI cruise. Denise answered our panicked calls at 6 in the morning and came through with a maintenance man who was able to get into the safe and retrieve our items before the morning was over. She even helped to rebook us on a private charter to the BVI the next day and covered the extra costs for our troubles. She was exceptional in her service and is an asset to the management of Starstruck. The owner, Jay, is also easily accessible, friendly, and a pleasure to coordinate with when we were planning our trip. We would stay here again in a heartbeat, and gladly recommend it to anyone looking for breathtaking views, proximity to Cruz Bay and the western beaches, and higher-end accommodations for a surprisingly affordable price. Thank you Denise and Jay for another memorable week on our favorite island!
