The Flight of the Negroni
The Negroni is indomitable. Attack it with skewed ratios, and it rallies. Violate the ingredients, and it stubbornly persists. I can't think of another drink that you can screw up so thoroughly and still enjoy the result.
This history of the Negroni is disputed, but probably dates to 1919, where the Americano was stiffened by substituting gin for the soda water. Regardless of exactly who created the drink and when, the Negroni is the King of bitter cocktails. If you spy a bottle of Campari on the backbar, the bartender probably knows how to make a Negroni.
|Sweet vermouth
|Orange peel (as garnish)
To challenge my ability to ruin a simple, innocent cocktail, I set about testing a variety of base amari:
- Campari – the gold standard, and the definitive choice
- Luxardo Bitter – the red, cheaper, harder-to-find alternative
- Gran Classico – the new Swiss entry with a distinctive profile and golden hue
- Cynar – the popular, brown distant cousin to Campari, included because it's awesome
First, an admission about sugar. I'll happily drink a classic Negroni, but I find them sweeter than ideal. Two parts sweet ingredients to only one of spirit is pushing the limit for me, even with the bitter aspects to balance the sweetness. I prefer a less syrupy ratio, and have even gone so far as try other acidifiers, such as lime, citric acid, and Lactart. But certainly the easiest and most authentic way to tame sugarzilla is the perfect variant: split the sweet vermouth fraction into equal parts sweet and dry.
Normally I would have selected Punt e Mes as my preferred sweet vermouth. Some would classify this bitter oddity as a hybrid amaro / sweet vermouth, but I close my mind and try not to think about it. The stuff is just wonderful, so, yup, it's just sweet vermouth. Alas, I was nearly out (oh dear). I opened a fresh bottle of Cocchi Vermouth di Torino, which I enjoy on its own merits. And a newish bottle of Dolin Dry served for the dry vermouth. I am also rather partial to Boissiere.
So my prototype recipe was:
2/3 oz Gin, Beefeater
2/3 oz Campari-like amaro
1/3 oz Sweet vermouth, Cocchi
1/3 oz Dry vermouth, Dolin
To minimize differences in dilution and stirring, I built each in a frozen glass with a huge very frozen ice cube, stirring each in several iterations.
I enlisted the help of my expert bitter snob (and spouse) and we started sampling.
Campari. The original, familiar. Bright citrus flavors. Instantly recognizable as Campari. As wonderful as you would expect it to be.
Luxardo Bitter. Quite similar to Campari really. Essentially the same (artificial) color. It has a floral aspect and is just enough different that I just don't quite like it as well. In my area it is about 25-30% less expensive, but I would still pay the extra $8-$10 for Campari, even though I go through an astonishing amount of the stuff. Still, a worthy substitute.
|Sweet vermouth
|Peychaud's Bitters (or Angostura or orange)
|Orange (squeezed)
|Orange (as garnish)
Gran Classico. Interesting and quite different. Deeply floral with a spicy flavor. If you like Creme de Violette and Orange Flower Water, this might appeal to you. The golden color is natural and lovely. I enjoyed the variation, but mostly for the variety itself.
Cynar. The Gin-Cin-Cyn is essentially the same drink, and I certainly enjoy it. However in back-to-back sipping, it was thinner and less interesting than the original Negroni, which surprised me. Cynar (with a squeeze of lemon) is my go-to "I want something a little more" aperitif. I think it just couldn't quite stand up to the other bold ingredients the way that Campari can.
So there you have it. All Negroni variations are good. But I like the original [P]erfect Negroni best. So far.
Dan Chadwick, Chief Swizzlestick
Although Campari totally makes a Negroni, there's a lot of talk here about vermouth- so I am wondering: has anyone tried Vya vermouths? They are out of California and the extra dry and sweet are both amazing (and way cheaper than Antica). Didn't see them in the Listing here, so thought I'd recommend them!
I hear great things and have
I hear great things and have wanted to try Vya for ages, but I'm always worried a full-size bottle would go south before I could use it all. I've seen half-bottles while visiting California, but not here in Texas... I should probably just take the plunge, though.
I'd recommend it. It is nice
I'd recommend it. It is nice enough to have straight, and I'm not a vermouth fan.
Messing around with the Negroni
I've kept the Campari but scratched the gin, which I don't really love. Try it with a reposado tequila. Awesome. And it doesn't get much better than a Boulevardier, which is a bourbon Negroni. I have been playing with the old "Desert Island Disks" thing that Tower Records used to do: if you were stuck on a desert island forever, which ten record albums would you take. I have tried to figure out which ten cocktails I'd make if I could only make ten. I think the Negroni might have to be on the list, in spite of the gin.
I love a good Negroni. Heck,
I love a good Negroni. Heck, I love a "bad" Negroni (i.e. cheap gin and/or old vermouth). Regardless, I am a 1:1:1 purist. When the vermouth is suspect (local dives, airports, hotels, etc.), I tend to order them on them on the rocks. The extra dilution helps tame the (possibly) funky vermouth. In fact, the Negroni is my "vermouth tester" drink at bars I'm new to. In my mind, if the vermouth isn't too skunky for a Negroni, it'll definitely be safe for a Manhattan... My absolute favorite Negroni, however, is made with Beefeater 24 for the gin, M&R for the vermouth, and a grapefruit twist.
If it doesn't have Campari,
If it doesn't have Campari, it's not a Negroni! As with you, I have enjoyed playing around with other amari, but I always come back to the original.
There's also the Contessa (use Aperol instead of Campari). If you already find a Negroni too sweet this is certainly not the variant for you, but it is tasty and a good "Negroni with training wheels" for introducing people to the world of amari.
I think you might prefer a Berlioni to a Gin-Cin-Cyn: 1.5 Tanqueray / .75 Cynar / .25 Noilly Prat Dry / orange twist.
I love this drink
One of my favorite aperitifs, and a great PDT book discovery.

Could be a difficult time of year
Posted by: riverstrider on Apr-09-13 12:54 PM (EST)
With the exception of the Nulhegan (which likely will have no water in it and be impassable)and the Connecticut - and, of course, Lake Champlain - nearly everything between New York and Maine is going to be upstream work. With a lot of fast water. Fast, shallow water with no good bite for your paddle. You could have a tough time of it. If you're looking to do a trip like this in late summer, I would recommend a segment with a lot of lake and flatwater. Like, Old Forge to Plattsburgh (although low water will definitely be an issue on the Saranac). Or Moosehead Lake to as far as you want to go, even to the end at Fort Kent. Anything in between could be pretty miserable with a lot of heat & humidity and no water.

After falling to Bowdoin 4-1 the night before as the Polar Bears scored three goals in the third period and had three power-play goals to their credit, Wesleyan entered the rematch Sat., Jan. 14 in Brunswick with new resolve. The Cardinals stayed out of the penalty box as they committed just three infractions to six by Bowdoin, and yielded no power-play goals while scoring one of their own. That came off the stick of Jill Reynolds '12 (#24, main photo) at 11:04 of the third period to lift Wesleyan into a tie with its host, 2-2. But Bowdoin scored the game-winner with just 1:35 remaining to sweep the NESCAC series.
Though Bowdoin got on the board just 1:33 into the contest, Wesleyan responded in short order as Glenn Hartman-Mattson '14 (#6, photo insert lower right) got the equalizer a mere 32 seconds later, her third goal of the season, and the first period ended 1-1. A short-handed goal by Bowdoin at 4:20 of the middle period gave the host a 2-1 margin heading into the final 20 minutes. Reynolds took control of the puck in center ice and darted into the Bowdoin zone to fire home a high shot from the right circle for her third goal of the year and even the count at 2-2.
Though outshot 34-19, Wesleyan got solid goaltending from Ashleigh Corvi, as she logged 31 saves.
The Cardinals were on the road for a non-conference affair Tues., Jan. 17, taking on New England College. There the Pilgrims prevailed, 5-1, though Wesleyan generated a 37-31 edge in shots. Scoring for Wesleyan midway through the second period was Becca Koppel '13, which cut a 2-0 deficit in half. A goal by NEC 53 seconds later bumped the difference back to two and a pair of tallies by the host in the third period accounted for the final margin. NEC won for the third time in five all-time meetings against Wesleyan. The teams played to a 1-1 tie a year ago in Middletown.
Wesleyan began a key NESCAC weekend, taking on Conn. College in the first of a pair of contest Fri., Jan. 20 in New London. Conn overcame a 1-0 deficit heading into the third period and pulled away for a 4-1 victory. The teams met again in the same location Sat., Jan. 21, with Conn again coming out on top, 3-1.
Jordan Schildhaus '15 spotted the Cardinals a 1-0 edge at 11:56 of the middle period in game one, breaking the 0-0 standoff with assists going to Glenn Hartman-Mattson '14 and Caitlin Bray '15. Corvi finished the first two periods with 23 saves as Wesleyan held the 1-0 lead. Conn evened the count at 1:49 of the third period and added a pair in a span of under a minute to go ahead 3-1 at the 6:38 mark. A power-play goal, by the Camels at 8:24 polished off the scoring for the evening. Corvi finished with 30 saves.
In the second game, a goal by Hannah Jellinek '15, the first of her career, tied the contest at 1-1 4:35 into the third period. The Canels came right back to regain the lead just 20 seconds later and net the insurance goal with 7:12 left in the game. Koppel had the assist on the Cardinal marker. Corvi again played a solid game in the net, stopping 32 shots.
Wesleyan starts a five-game home stand against NESCAC foes Fri., Feb. 3, playing Hamilton in the first of back-to-back game with the Continentals. The second game on Sat., Jan. 4 will be webcast starting at 3 p.m. and can be viewed by clicking < here >.

Normally, the Primary entry is searched first. I assume that if the domain name in my URL isn't found there, the Secondary address is checked automatically? If I had a 3rd entry, it would check there if the Secondary failed to return a result?
That's wrong.
If a DNS resolve failed (NX Domain), nothing will happen, except your client can not resolve that name. Only if the connection to the dns-server fails, the 2nd, 3rd etc. is used.
-> Redundancy of DNS is normally done on the client, no on the server (just by the way some people think of using 1 HA DNS-Server instead of 2 or more on the serverside...)

A few months ago, we learned the ridiculously badass news that Dave Grohl would, once again, play drums on a forthcoming Queens Of The Stone Age album. And Grohl has apparently found a fun way to shake off any drum rust he might be feeling: By linking up with the absurdly theatrical Swedish doom metal band Ghost and dropping bombs all over their cover of fellow Swedes Abba's 1977 mini-opus "I'm A Marionette." Listen below.
Ghost's next album Infestissumam is due in spring.

Albuquerque, New Mexico (KTSM) — Fast food for fast sex. That's what a man was hoping for when police say he paid a prostitute with food from McDonald's. Prostitutes are a common sight in one Albuquerque neighborhood, and Friday afternoon in broad daylight an undercover cop says 58 year-old Donald Jones hooked up with one in a very peculiar way. Police say the woman admitted Donald bought her food in exchange for sex. Police say both Gilbert and Jones were arrested.

Dear Friends:
For those of you just tuning in, this is Capitol Update, with your legislator, Senator John Carona. We take you to the midpoint of the 78th legislative session, where the new Republican leadership is busy galvanizing support for its fiscally conservative agenda. The 78th Legislature faces many unique challenges this year including: the change in leadership, a budget chasm and faltering economy, the Columbia space shuttle tragedy, and increased homeland security concerns since the outbreak of war. And, the Legislature must confront the herculean tasks of overhauling an out-of-date school finance system and reversing skyrocketing homeowners and medical malpractice insurance premiums.
On Friday, March 14 the window of opportunity for filing non-local and non-emergency bills and joint resolutions officially closed. Back at the Capitol, legislators and their staff are engrossed in discussions about pending legislation. With so little time left for hearings, bill authors and sponsors are scrambling to line up witnesses and shore up support in both houses for their legislative proposals. It is already evident that budget pressures have staunched the flow of bills this session and may restrict the number passed to those that show immediate results, have no fiscal impact, or require simple changes to the law.
The revenue shortfall has dominated the 2003 session as legislators work to write a balanced budget for the next biennium. State Comptroller Strayhorn's revenue estimates keep plunging, prompting Texas leaders to reconsider all state programs. Obviously, the first and highest priority is to reduce spending, thus living within our means. Governor Perry, Lieutenant Governor Dewhurst, and House Speaker Craddick led this effort by requesting that state agencies submit plans for reducing their current budgets, while still being careful to reassess the core mission of the agency and paring down to provide essential services. Both chambers have been engaged in a series of finance meetings outlining budget cut proposals for individual agencies, but further analysis and testimony have proved none of these cuts will be painless. The Governor is adamant that legislators avoid 'quick fix' solutions such as using the rainy day fund or selling off part of the state's tobacco settlement to balance the budget. He favors instead drawing from the rainy day fund to establish a more hospitable climate for economic development in Texas. The challenge is thus to make appropriate reductions that are considered good public policy both now and in the future. Since session is halfway underway, the participants must work diligently with each other and the public on writing the next budget. It might be the one great feat of the Legislature during regular session, or it might play out late into the summer in a special session.
Tort and insurance reform, while intuitively connected, are proving to be politically divisive. The major house bill that is just now making its way over to the Senate, is a comprehensive civil justice reform bill intended to address and correct problems that currently impair the fairness and efficiency of our court system. Its aim is to clear the dockets of non-meritous lawsuits, halt the increase in jury awards including those for non-economic damages, and address the unreasonable pressure to settle defensible claims. This litigious climate comes at too high a cost for medical providers and others in the private sector, in addition to consumers. Key components of the reform bill include: a cap on non-economic damages for medical liability claims, provisions for payment of future damages as accrued, limitations on plaintiff attorney contingency fee contracts, some cost-shifting of litigation costs, and class action reforms.
After September 11, 2001, Governor Rick Perry appointed a Texas Task Force on Homeland Security comprised of several appointees who advised him on such matters as: emergency preparedness and response, facilitating coordination among agencies, and other related matters. The task force was able to identify issues to be addressed by state and local agencies, but did not explain how those efforts would be coordinated or how the information gathered by the agencies and governmental entities would be reported. Current proposals in the Senate and the House seek to provide a more centralized communication and coordination effort out of the Governor's office and call for the development of a statewide homeland security strategy that would complement the federal homeland security strategy and would be funded in part by federal grants. Both major bills would establish more permanent advisory councils and committees made up of representatives from various state and local agencies, and in some cases, non-governmental entities, that would coordinate and document all homeland security efforts in the state. While the House and Senate bills are very similar in structure and in intent, the Senate version precludes reports submitted to the Critical Infrastructure Protection Council, a council established by the bill, from public disclosure due to the highly sensitive nature of their content.
Other homeland security measures being reviewed address concerns about school safety, pecuniary losses for terroristic threats, Internet security, protection of natural resources from eco- or biological terrorism, and safety along the state's border and at its ports. The Governor's Office also revealed that it is developing a Texas homeland security website and has made its new Texas school safety handbook available to schools.
This session we have the opportunity to approve legislative policy that would improve our transportation networks, relieve congestion, and enhance passenger safety around the state by funding the Texas Mobility Fund and the Trans Texas Corridor.
Home equity legislation filed this session is designed to provide comprehensive consumer protection for homeowners seeking more flexible payment options for their homes. The proposals on the table address one or more of the following: lines of credit, interpretative authority, cure provisions, and reverse mortgages.
The concept of an appointment/retention election system for judges and justices has surfaced again this session. The proposal in question would require the governor, with the consent of the Senate, to fill judicial vacancies as they arise, and then force the appointees to face a nonpartisan retention election during the general election in which voters could decide whether to retain the judges. The intent, according to the bill's author, is to make statewide courts more diverse, ensure through a screening process that judges in office are better qualified, and improve the public perception of the judicial system. If passed by the Legislature, and approved by voters, Texas would join the majority of states having an appointed/retention system.
One Texas state senator has taken the initiative to file a redistricting bill that would establish a nine-member independent, bipartisan citizen redistricting commission to draw district lines for congressional districts, state senate districts, and state representative districts. Traditionally, the Legislature apportions Texas into senate and representative districts at the legislature's first regular session after the publication of the United States decennial census. This proposal was created in response to the 1991 Supreme Court ruling that Texas was guilty of gerrymandering. The independent Texas Redistricting Commission, comprised by gubernatorial appointees approved by the state senate, is designed to ensure that political boundaries be redrawn to make sure that each Texan is more accurately represented. Although several other states have created similar commissions, statewide support for this body is mixed, due to concerns that new lines drawn to reflect the growing population would create artificial barriers between communities with many commonalties.
During every biennial legislative session, 20-30 state agencies come up for reassessment by a commission of 10 legislators and public members appointed by the Lieutenant Governor and Speaker of the House who determine whether the functions of the agencies in question are still needed in the state. The process includes many opportunities for public participation and debate on substantive issues. Among the 24 agencies slated for review this year are the Texas Aerospace Commission, Texas Department of Economic Development, Texas Ethics Commission, Texas Higher Education Coordinating Board, the Texas Lottery Commission, and the Texas Workforce Commission. This session, leaders will be scrutinizing agencies more than ever in an effort to reduce fraud, waste, and inefficiency and generate savings for the state. State Comptroller Strayhorn recommended abolishing the Texas Department of Economic Development, deemed ineffective by both the Texas State Auditor's Office and the Sunset Advisory Commission, and transferring its economic development and tourism functions to the Governor's Office and the Texas Department of Transportation respectively.
In response to recent cyber security threats in the UT System and in the nation, several legislators have proposed bills that would protect citizens and consumers from identity theft. Some of these bills would restrict the use of Social Security numbers on state records, including identification cards, and as personal identifiers in all institutions of higher education of the state. Other bills include measures to prevent further incidence of this growing problem in Texas and the nation, by omitting at least four digits of the credit cardholder's account number on printed receipts. Additional bills filed would help law enforcement combat identity theft and assist victims recovering from this theft, by establishing guidelines for the criminal investigation and reporting and by providing criminal penalties for the offense. Victims would also be able to place a freeze on their credit reports while the alleged crime is being investigated, to prevent further financial loss and damage to their credit history. Using electronic devices, such as scanners or re-encoders to obtain personal identification information from the magnetic strips of credit cards without the cardholder's consent, could also be a punishable offense.
Issues related to the prompt payment of physicians' claims by insurers have confronted lawmakers since 1997. The 77th Legislature enacted legislation to further revise prompt-payment requirements and establish requirements for submission of a clean claim, but the bill was subsequently vetoed. Texas physicians contend that insurers are slow to pay or refuse to pay for services rendered to insured patients; insurers contend that providers do not provide complete and accurate billing information. Despite passage of state law in 1999 that was intended to accelerate payments to providers and rules clarifying the definition of a clean claim adopted by the Texas Department of Insurance in 2000, physicians still claim that insurers have been able to avoid prompt payment of claims. The Senate Special Interim Committee on Prompt Payment of Health Care Providers was established to evaluate current state law and agency rules, and to recommend ways to improve the process of paying health insurance claims. Resulting from that interim committee is a new Senate bill that provides for the regulation and prompt payment of health care providers under certain health benefit plans and establishes penalties for violations of statutory provisions.
At this stage, it is difficult to make predictions about where these proposals will go, how they will be funded, and what shape the budget will take by the end of session. As must be evident from this newsletter, it is tricky to condense and trace these legislative histories-in-the-making, but hopefully together we can see the forest for the trees.
Many of my colleagues agree that this appears to be the most difficult session in many years. In spite of our best efforts to get all major legislation squared away by June, the unique challenges we face may yet mean a special session or two. Therefore I ask, help us make the right choices by staying abreast of the issues and keeping us informed about your positions. Remember, I am always just a ring, click, or beep away.

Gov. Haslam signs grocery tax reduction into law
POSTED: 11:46 PM May 16 2013 UPDATED: 5:07 PM May 16 2013
Republican Gov. Bill Haslam has signed into law a reduction in the state's sales tax on groceries.
Starting on July 1, Tennessee shoppers will pay a 5 percent sales tax on retail food items. That's a reduction from the current 5.25 percent tax, and down from 5.5 percent in the previous budget year.
The regular sales tax is 7 percent, while local governments can add an additional tax of up to 2.75 percent.
The reduction in the sales tax on groceries was part of Haslam's legislative agenda, and was approved in tandem with cuts to the state's taxes on inheritances, gifts and income from interest and dividends.

Update: See comments to learn how the error was made. Kudos to Brueggers for stepping up and being frank. Oh, and I take back the "doesn't know geography" comment.
—- origina post—-
I'm a Bruegger's person. It's my "go to" coffee shop. I have a "year of coffee" card. I follow the company on Twitter. I contact management when they mess up (so far, they've been very responsive). Today the chain embarrassed me.
The e-mail today, which always identifies my local outlet correctly, invited me to "stop by" the newest store - in Cedar Rapids, Iowa. Now, I have no issue with the company announcing new store openings, but the database knows my local store is in Massachusetts. This just looks silly!
So, Breugger's, how about stepping up your marketing just a tad with some geospatial analysis? Perhaps you could ask folks within an hour's drive to "stop by." I'd even incentivize them with a freebie. Other fans would simply get an announcement noting the opening.

NEWPORT, Tenn. (WVLT)-- One Newport family is seeking justice after someone broke into their home and killed their puppy.
The incident happened in broad daylight November 28.
Tonia Laforce told Local 8 News that when she and her three children walked into their home, they noticed someone broke in through the back door. Then they made the gruesom discovery.
Simon, their one-year-old Terrier was found dead in the kitchen in a puddle of blood.
"It's a cruel person that would come into your home and take your things but it's an evil person who would take a life," LaForce said.
She said Simon was her 8-year-old daughter Carly's best friend.
"He walked with her wherever she went. Anything she did, he was right by her side," she said.
Their Cocke County home was decorated for Christmas but LaForce said the holidays will be a difficult time, especially for Carly.
The family hopes police find the person responsible for their loss.
According to LaForce, the thief or theives ran off with several items including guns, a Kindle and medicine.
Anyone with any information is asked to call police. There is a $1,000 reward.

Can A Big Company Really Blog?
There's an interesting article in The Economist about CEOs attending the Davos World Economic Forum being encouraged to blog (the theme this year is "The Shifting Power Equation"). On the face of it, this makes about as much sense as the CEOs being encouraged to slam dance at the raging party that Google guys Sergei and Larry are going to throw.
But, to get back to the question, is blogging really a suitable activity for a company boss? Seth Godin, author of business books such as "Small is the New Big", and "All Marketers are Liars: the Power of Telling Authentic Stories in a Low-Trust World", is sceptical. Blogs work, he says, when they are based on the values of "candour, urgency, timeliness, pithiness and controversy (maybe utility if you want six)". As he asks, "Does this sound like a CEO to you?"
Candour, in particular, will surely strike most bosses as a reckless risk in the liability-laden world of corporate America after Sarbanes-Oxley.
The notion of CEOs blogging grew out of the world of small business, in particular the online start-up, where having a blog is now as obligatory as having a an AJAX-laden homepage and a domain name that is either a misspelling or a made-up word. In the start-up context, a CEO blogging makes all the sense in the world, because the CEO and the other handful of team members ARE the company. The company hasn't taken on a life of its own yet. There are shareholders, but most of them are the people blogging, so they are looking after their own interests. More importantly, there is no Sarbanes-Oxley threatening to send the CEO or other executives to jail if something they publish "spontaneously" to their blog runs afoul of SEC regulations.

Knoxville (WVLT) -- The Mid-South Chapter of the National Multiple Sclerosis Society put on this years MS Walk along the Tennessee River on Volunteer Landing.
Many turned out to the scenic course, having the option of walking three or six miles.
Some of the walkers came out to support friends with the disease, while others did it to support the society that helps them.
"Last September I was diagnosed with MS," said Emily Elliot, "so this is my first time out and I just figured I would raise some money and get some of my friends and family out."
According to the Mid-South chapter, about 7,200 local residents have MS.

HIVA-KU Leuven > Publications > Publication > Time to Care. The Cost of Formal and Informal Care for Persons with Alzheimers Disease
Time to Care. The Cost of Formal and Informal Care for Persons with Alzheimers Disease
Pilot Study in Five EU Member States
In the decades ahead, the number of families faced with caring for a person with Alzheimers Disease (AD) and related disorders will grow substantially. The number of estimated sufferers is estimated at between 0.9 and 1.2% of the total population. Formal and informal care, probably primarily the latter, will be mobilised to a significant extent. Some studies estimate the cost of care for AD patients at one-tenth to one-third of all care expenditure. However, the burden on the main carer will perhaps be even more difficult to support, primarily because it weighs almost exclusively on the (probably also elderly) partner or child of the AD sufferer. This paper presents images of the vulnerability of this care situation and the frailty of older persons with AD. With the financial support of the European Commission within the context of the EACH-project (European Alzheimer Clearing House) and co-financing from the Flemish Government, formal and informal care for persons with AD living at home was studied in detail in five European countries (Belgium (Flanders), Finland, Ireland, Greece and Spain). The Higher Institute for Labour Studies (HIVA) developed the methodology and co-ordinated the work of four other research institutes, each of them applying the research methodology in their own country on a limited or larger scale. This approach means that, for the first time, we have access to comparative information about the costs of formal and informal care. This volume contains the reports for the pilot studies in the five participating countries, as well as a comparative analysis.

To call The Body Shop a mere skin and body care store is to miss half of what makes it special. Late founder Dame Anita Roddick was a pioneer for ethical business practices; upon opening her first store in Brighton, England, in 1976, she developed company values such as "Defend Human Rights" and "Protect The Planet." She somehow balanced principles and profit, partnering in global campaigns with UNICEF, Greenpeace, Amnesty International, and the United Nations, all while ultimately expanding her brand into 2,500 locations in over 60 international markets. After her death in 2007, then-British Prime Minister Gordon Brown said, ?She campaigned for green issues for many years before it became fashionable to do so and inspired millions to the cause by bringing sustainable products to a mass market. . . . She was an inspiration.?
Indeed, the Body Shop exhibits an eco-friendliness and social consciousness that's hard to come by in a company of its size. Its products have been fair-trade since 1987, and its Against Animal Testing movement led to an EU-wide ban of animal testing of cosmetics. The products are made from ingredients harvested from around the world: shea butter from Ghana goes into body scrubs and butters, and Indian artisans craft wooden massagers and tote bags that are screenprinted by hand. But all that isn't to say the company's production practices overshadow its final products. Skincare treatments such as the brand?s iconic body butters, facial products, and gift collections often appear in Allure, Marie Claire, Lucky, Seventeen and other national publications.
Where as many people prefer to chat with others during lunchtime, patrons of Yoga at Change look forward to quieting their minds. These 30-minute meditation sessions occur three times a week, and like the rest of the non-profit's curriculum, strive to inject some introspection into otherwise bustling days. Though "yoga" is in the studio's title, meditation figures heavily in many of its class and workshop offerings?Slow Flow yoga mixes it with Hatha poses, and Integral lessons combine chanting, meditation, and restful movements. Mothers can also channel meditative energy during Mom Baby Yoga and Yoga with Babysitting, specialty classes that allow them to engage in relaxing postures and meditation while staying connected to their little ones, who spend the sessions stretching out with their parent, sleeping, or playing.
The holistic philosophy of Yoga at Change is that all people have the right to spiritual insight, a healthy body, and a peaceful mind. The instructors strive to accomplish this through a blend of self-reflection, breath, and physical balance. The staff believes that there are several roads to wellness, and that all of them should be accessible, regardless of the client's skill level. They schedule several discounted or free demonstrations, and also offer a scholarship program to fund yoga practice for those in need of financial aid. Students attend classes based on their desired intensity?gentle, moderate, or vigorous. They can also register for workshops that address a slew of alternative health topics, which in the past have included treating lower back pain.

With more than 700 locations, Jamba Juice proves to the masses that nutrition can be speedy and delicious. Since the beginning, the company's product philosophy has revolved around choosing whole fruits and other natural ingredients over artificial flavorings, sweeteners, and preservatives. The menu is completely free of high-fructose corn syrup and trans fats, and it offers additional accommodations for vegan and gluten-free diets. Blended drinks dominate the menu, with options including fruit refreshers—made with naturally hydrating, electrolytic coconut water—and pre-boosted smoothies that can fill nutritional gaps with infusions of protein, immunity boosters, or antioxidants that neutralize accidentally swallowed pool water. The drink list also includes organic house-blend coffee and Mighty Leaf teas flavored with hibiscus flowers or peppermint. For those with heartier appetites, steel-cut oats steep in soymilk before being enhanced with toppings such as apples, cinnamon, and brown-sugar crumble. The lunch hour presents a trio of california flatbreads, each packing only about 320–420 calories, which can be pleasantly capped off with cups of Whirl'ns frozen yogurt.
Traditionally, the zoo provides the comfort of seeing animals that could not make a surprise visit to your backyard; this is a comfort CuriOdyssey dispatches to give weight to its message of science education. The menagerie of nearly 100 mammals, amphibians, reptiles, and birds primarily showcases local species like the Channel Island fox and the red-shouldered hawk, which have relatively small niches that have been squeezed by environmental degradation and human encroachment. Native species can be glimpsed within a complex of 25 lush habitats, including a 4,000-square-foot walk-through aviary and a replica of the trading floor of the New York Stock Exchange.
Sunny, outdoor gardens fill more than 1.3 acres with plots that rotate with the seasons and plants to attract butterflies and hummingbirds for live study. Among the science exhibits, Forces explores fundamental forces in nature such as gravity and magnetism. All the exhibits are designed to enable close observation and experimentation characteristic of the scientific method. This aim is supported by shows, such as daily otter feedings—spied from behind the glass of a cross-sectioned riverbank—and a variety of classes.

How to Join
Missing Children
Operation GoldenRetrieval
Project Lifesaver
Missing Children
Print this page
This page is designed to deliver safety tips to parents and provide helpful insight to those whose child is missing. At Warren County Rescue, missing juveniles are top priority for us, whether they're lost or considered to be runaways.
Teaching Your Children
When a child reaches the age of 2, you should start teaching your child the following:
Their first and last names,
Home address,
Telephone number, including area code,
Parents' first and last names,
How to use the phone to dial "911" or "0" in an emergency, and how to make a long distance call,
A secret family password and the understanding of not going with anyone unless they know the password (if the person doesn't know the password, the child should be taught to yell and scream for help to attract attention). They should also be taught not to go anywhere without permission,
Not to stray from you in public, and to approach people in uniforms for help if they're lost;
What "Safe Spots" are and what the "Safe Spot" symbol looks like; click link for more info on
Safe Spot
It's okay to tell an adult 'no' if they sense danger or are not comfortable. Teach them to yell "HELP! This is not my Dad/Mom!" Continue to yell, kick, and try to break loose until they get safely away,
Never tell someone on the phone they are alone or open the door to strangers; if a delivery is being made, have them leave it on the porch.
Tips For Parents
Always know the whereabouts of your child,
Never leave your child alone in an unattended vehicle,
Never let your children out of your sight while shopping in a store or mall,
Never let your child go to a public rest room alone,
Know the names, addresses, and parents' names of your child's friends,
Take pictures of your child at least once a year. If under the age of 2, four times a year,
Keep a detailed description of your child. Include height, weight, age, eye and hair color, birthmarks, scars, moles, and any specific physical characteristics your child may have,
Make sure your dentist prepares full dental charts on your child and updates them with each exam,
Find out from your doctor where your child's medical records are located. All permanent scars, birthmarks, broken bones, and medical needs should be recorded,
Arrange with your local police department to have your child fingerprinted. The police department will give you fingerprint card. They will NOT keep a record of your child's prints.
Your local police department or your child's school may offer an Ident-A-Kid program; use this program to get an Ident-A-Kid card for your child
If you have an iPhone, you can download the
FBI's Child ID App
. This app keeps detailed info of your child and in the event your child goes missing, you can email all of your contacts and the authorities your child's information.
Tips For Prevention
Share quality time with each child, listen, and guide them through difficult periods.
Exercise plenty of patience, love and understanding.
Take their worries and fears seriously.
Pay attention when they ask for help and realize these requests for help may not be in the form of a simple verbal plea.
Note the following warning signs and be aware of them.
Confront signs of trouble in a direct and calm manner.
Discuss your concern and the consequences of continued unacceptable behavior.
Listen and discuss calmly - try not to lecture.
Talk with your child's teachers and parents of their friends. Often, helpful insights can result.
Look for Warning Signs
Often, it is difficult to distinguish trouble signs with the usual adolescent turmoil. But when real problems are in the making, the signs usually come in clusters. Observance of these signs should cause concern - rather than undue alarm:
Sleep Changes - fatigue, early morning wakening, insomnia, or increased sleeping.
Personality Changes - apathy, boredom, irritability, preoccupation with a single thought, abrupt mood swings, excessive blowups triggered by small things, use of alcohol and/or other drugs.
Withdrawal From Family - growing isolation, avoidance of family gatherings - even at meals, and increased violation of house rules.
School Problems - cutting classes, truancy, falling grades, apathy, fights and other disciplinary problems.
Withdrawal From Friends - fallouts with friends, hostility toward former friends, new (often older) friends, reluctance to introduce parents to new friends.
Overreaction To Family - prolonged reaction to loss or stress from death, divorce, illness, loss of job, or change of residence.
Trust Your Feelings - parents often have "gut feelings" when something is wrong. Trust these feelings and watch for these signs.
Locating a Runaway
It is very important for parents to remain calm and rational when they discover that their child has run away. Do not panic or lose sight of the immediate task at hand - to locate the runaway and return him or her safely to home.
The first 48 hours are the most important in locating the child. Many runaways return home during this two-day period. To help locate your runaway child, follow these steps immediately:
Check with your child's friends, school, neighbors, relatives, or anyone else who may know of your child's whereabouts. Ask them to notify you if they hear from the child.
Contact the local police. Provide a complete description of the child, birth date, school and grade, medical and dental records or doctors' names. Include circumstances surrounding the disappearance and the complete name and description of the abductor and vehicle used, if known. Provide the police with a recent photo of your child.
Record the name and badge number of the officer who takes the report. Find out who will follow up the initial investigation. Also, be sure to request the case number of the missing persons report.
Remember: Keep a notebook and record all information on the investigation.
Ask that all data regarding the missing child be entered into the Law Information Network of Kentucky (LINK) computer, National Crime Information Center (NCIC) computer, and the Kentucky Missing and Exploited Children Unit.
Double check to make sure that the Kentucky Missing and Exploited Children Unit receives a KSP 261 Missing Persons Report and a current photo so that a flyer can be distributed statewide and to surrounding states.
Wait 24 hours and then check with the police to determine that the information has been entered. Ask to receive a copy of the printout, if desired. If the information has not been entered into the LINK and NCIC computers, then contact the Kentucky Missing and Exploited Children Unit and sign an affidavit that the local agency is in noncompliance with the law.
Request that you be kept informed on a regular basis of the status of the investigation.
When a Runaway Returns Home
When your child returns home, make sure to show love and concern for his or her safety - NOT anger or fear. If you react angrily, your child may feel unwanted and unloved and may run away again as soon as possible.
Please make sure that your child understands that you care about what happens to him or her. Promptly notify police and anyone else who may have assisted you.
If your child has been away for an extended period of time, a complete medical examination is recommended when he or she returns home, including tests for sexually transmitted diseases.
Most importantly, try to resolve the problems in your family that prompted your child to leave home in the first place. In general, children run away because of problems or stresses in the family or at home - such as divorce, remarriage, alcoholism and other drug abuse, and physical or sexual abuse.
If you are unable to deal with the family problems effectively, seek the assistance of a trained counselor or professional. Parents can contact the local Department of Social Services, Family Services, or other public or private agencies that help families.
Members of the clergy, school personnel, or the law enforcement community can also direct you to available services and resources. It may be necessary for your child to go to a temporary residence or runaway shelter while the family works toward resolving its problems. A trained counselor can help you make this decision.
Reporting a Missing Child
If your child is missing, act immediately. Search the house checking closets, piles of laundry, in and under beds, inside large appliances, and inside vehicles, including trunks--wherever a child may crawl or hide. If your child is still missing, immediately call "911." The quicker first responders are notified the better. The dispatcher will then notify the appropriate agencies.
If your child disappears in a store, immediately have the store manager or security office notified and call 911. Many stores have a "Code Adam" plan of action—if a child is missing in the store, employees immediately mobilize to look for the missing child.
Federal Missing Child Laws
If your child is missing, you have certain rights under federal law.
Law enforcement is not allowed to observe a waiting period before taking a report from you.
Law enforcement must enter your child's information into the FBI's NCIC database and the state's law enforcement system database within 2 hours of receiving your missing child report.
The National Center for Missing and Exploited Children (NCMEC) provides free services to families. NCMEC operates the nations clearinghouse for missing and sexually exploited children. After you've reported your child missing, call NCMEC at 1-800-THE-LOST to learn more about what NCMEC can do for you.
Children With Special Needs
Children with special needs cab be at a higher risk of becoming missing. If your child has special needs, our agency has two proactive programs that provides extra security for your child.
Operation Golden Retrieval
Project LifeSaver
are offered for free and can be used for children with special needs, whether it be Down Syndrome, Autism, or any other cognitive brain disorder.

Vinod's Blog
Random musings from a libertarian, tech geek...
Happy Thanksgiving! Mine was spent in New York with extended family and friends. My little sister came down from HBS and a few cousins came in from NYC to celebrate at our aunt's place in Long Island.
This year's big "Thanks" was for "Thomas" born to my cousin just a few weeks earlier. Now as a general rule, I usually do NOT post other people's pictures on the blog out of respect for their privacy. And even more directly, I definitely do NOT do it without their permission. But, in the case of gentle 3-week old Thomas, I think I'll make an exception:
If he tells me some day to take his mug of the 'net, I'll kindly oblige him and commend him for his verbal skills.
With babies we're reminded how so many of the most basic things in life really are right at our disposal. Little Thomas lives in an angst-free, comfortable 3 hour cycle of "eat, sleep, look around". As visitors at the dinner table, we had the thrill of seeing an entire day in his life go by before we had even moved on to dessert. The new parents dutifully reminded us that his cycle wasn't quite so entertaining at 3am.
Occasionally, the cycle was broken by something we euphemistically referred to as "Thomas's gift back to us." In stark contrast to when we were passing him around like the village peace pipe, he was now radioactive and only parental hands had the stomach for him. How someone can deposit what must be a tenth of his bodyweight into a diaper, I have no idea.
And therein lies one of the great aspects of being a 3-week old - your most basic, private bodily functions become not just public spectacle but moments of joy themselves. Debates between Hanson, Fukuyama, and Pinker about human nature, pride, dignity, physicality, and inviolable rights all fall by the wayside when your entire existence, for a moment, boils down to hanging on for dear life while being burped across your grandmother's lap:

the location cited on the map was a virtual fish nursery when the Christmas tree enhancement program was in effect. All of the trees have deteriorated now and the location is dead. I have caught and released 10 to 15 2 to 3 lb crappies here along with numerous smaller ones in a day's fishing. This location needs to be restored as it is one of the best locations on the Lake. The long string of trees at about 40 ft was always alive with bait fish, small mouth bass, large mouth bass crappies, and large bluegills. I have pictures of 2-3 lb crappies to back up this claim. Vernon Warren
View Tip Location on Map
Crappie Tips for Current Conditions (automated):
Crappie fishing is sometimes at its best with the water temperature down this low. Crappie will be in large schools and follow the large shad schools around in extremely deep water. Find the deepest parts of your lake in old river channels and scan your graph for schooling shad. When you find the school, drop your plastics or live bait down to the bottom of the shad and get ready. Many crappie fishermen will be catching awesome numbers and size of fish this time of year. If you are brave enough to get out on the water this time when the water temperature is this cold, it can really pay off. Be careful out there, remember to boat safely. Never take any chances at these temperatures.

Catfish Tips for Current Conditions (automated):
The catfish family comprises of blue catfish, flathead catfish and channel catfish. Since catfish are warm water fish, they aren�t going to be very active in this water temperature. They will still be feeding, but catfish will only be found very deep and feeding very slowly. Your best bet is give some of the more active fish species in your lake a shot until the cats are active again.

With Applegate Lake at 49 degree water temperature this is a great time to get out on the water and try hitting some deeper primary and secondary points. Spotted bass will be feeding at this water temperature but will be much harder to catch. On Sunny warm afternoons its a great time to throw a crank bait, jigs or slow roll a spinnerbait at 5-10 foot on sunny points and drops off of sunny flats. Spottted Bass will move into warm water on warm sunny days.

Current Lunar Fishing Tip:
New Moon fishing can be at its best. The gravitational pull on the earth is at its peak when the moon and sun are rising and setting at the same time of day. This combination can generate extraordinary fishing opportunities especially if combined with perfect weather variances. The new moon may have the fish extremely aggressive and actively hunting for food. Try fishing a little faster today and with several different baits and techniques. When fish are more aggressive, its always fun to fish a little more aggressive. Watch the peak fishing times and make sure you are on the water during that part of the day to take full advantage of today?s solar/lunar peaks. Have a great day!

I really like how flowy and sheer the blouse is. Nice contrast with the leopard accessories.

I am so desperate to get some mint jeans into my closet, it's ridiculous. And I think pairing them with touches of leopard is insanely brilliant.

Okay, 13.059 is actually decent. But is it a rise/drop from last season? I like the fact that around 16 million people are watching the show during the 8 o clock timeslot. Now... can we have some of these people switch around to watch TAR? Or did a few TAR fans tune in to watch Survivor because they thought TAR was still on?
