Hide/Remove UAC Admin Password Request
I am using a Win 7 Standard User account and Built-in Admin is activated.
I just want to delete/hide the bottom portion of the UAC message (please refer to screenshot) where it asks for the admin password. Since i don't have one, I just leave it blank and click Yes.
Previous UAC messages didn't ask for the password, just the upper portion.
Appreciate the help. Thank you.

64-bit Windows 8.1 Enterprise
Hello JBN,
When you are logged into a standard user account, then this is normal to get a UAC prompt whenever you try to run or do anything that requires the elevated rights of an administrator. A standard user must enter an administrator's password first.
Other than being logged into a normal administrator account (not built-in Admin) to not have to enter a password, you could use the tutorial below create an elevated shortcut in your built-in Admin account that the standard account can use and not get a UAC prompt at all.
Elevated Command Prompt Shortcut
Hope this helps,

|Cincinnati's Men
|Written by Linda Palacios
|Saturday, 12 June 2010 08:23
Cincinnati's Men
Male movers and shakers
People define a city, and these three Queen City fellows definitely are giving Cincinnati a positive definition. From fashion to social life to beauty and health, these men make it their job to lead the Tri-State toward a fantastic future.
Once a year, Cincy Chic sets aside an issue for men. They might try our patience sometimes and, the next minute, show us why we should love them so much, but the roller coaster with the men in our lives is worth the thrill.
The Queen City herself is a passenger on that thrill ride with us, ladies, as she experiences some men who show her how to have fun. As Cincy Chic focuses on career, social life, fashion, health and beauty, this week we show three men who use their careers to advance our city in the other departments.
These are their stories.
Social Media Guru Chris Bergman
He was hip before hip even happened. That's right, Chris Bergman, a partner and director of mobile at Wiseacre Digital, was on Twitter when only 12 people in the Cincinnati area were tweeting away. Currently ranked No. 6 in wefollow's Most Influential people in Cincinnati and No. 1 out of the actual people (as opposed to organizations or companies), Bergman hopped on the Twitter train in 2007 after a SXSW Interactive Conference in Austin, Texas.
Now that Twitter has exploded into a social media phenomenon, it's a little different from back in the good ol' days for Bergman. "The quality of people who were on [Twitter] three or four years ago was very different from what it is now," Bergman says. The Twittersphere was filled with innovative minds on the cusp of new technologies, and "people who now have 50,000 followers had a couple hundred, so it was very easy to get a hold of them," Bergman says.
Bergman took advantage of this ease of communication to advance in his own innovation and master the constantly changing world of new media. So Bergman now uses his knowledge and experience to help others strategize in new media to benefit themselves individually or as a company.
Companies especially need help in the way of new media, as advancements in communication have changed consumerism. "Five years ago it was more about how you positioned yourself on TV and how funny your ads were. Today, there's this push to create a better product because there are more people out there talking about your product, having conversations about your product," Bergman says.
Whether an individual or a company, though, Bergman offers a couple tidbits of advice for the social media curious:
1. Be yourself. Without authenticity and honesty, you won't survive long.
2. Don't be afraid to fail. (And that doesn't just apply to social media.) Live up to tidbit No. 1, and you'll be able to get back on your feet if you do fail.
3. Recognize the time commitment. Social media can be a "time sink," so a company's CEO's time might be better used somewhere else.
4. Have an objective. Be realistic with your expectations, but determine what those expectations are.
Fashion Designer Josh Stevens
When Cincinnati native Josh Stevens was in kindergarten, he asked his mom for a silk shirt. And when she couldn't find his request in the kids' department, Stevens went looking for an extra small in the men's department. (Over-sized shirts were in back then, though, right?) So from the time he was a little boy, Stevens knew that fashion fit him beyond the measurements and style of a garment. It fit him for a career.
Now, Stevens, who just showed at Cincinnati Fashion Week, studies at the Fashion Institute of Technology (FIT), one of the country's top fashion design schools. At FIT Stevens is making that custom-fit career a reality in his life's wardrobe. And that career starts with Arbitrage, a men's clothier based in New York City.
Arbitrage works to make men's clothes a little more interesting. While women's fashion offers a little more freedom with the risk-taking side of the fashion world, "men are pretty much bound to traditional silhouettes, and the innovation and the risks come from specifically the fabric or some of the details or the fit," Stevens says.
So with ties that add guitars and airplanes to a traditional look and shirts that add unique twists like hoods and reversibility, Arbitrage pushes the envelope with their designs while still meeting the needs of the everyday man. And as an Arbitrage designer, Stevens works to make sure that happens.
To add that fun to your man's wardrobe, Stevens recommends trying on pieces you never thought you'd try. For example, one of Stevens' clients went looking for a blazer. His mind envisioned black, but when Stevens recommended a cream-colored jacket, the client fell in love. Not every piece will work that well, but trying something on won't cost you a dime while not trying something on might cost you a fantastic look.
Beauty Industry Leader Frederic Holzberger
After his father died when he was 5, Frederic Holzberger, the Frederic of Aveda Frederic's Institute, worked through poverty with education as his tool. "I knew that it was going to have to be through the education that would help me get to where I wanted to go," Holzberger says.
So after attending night classes for 10 years, Holzberger earned both marketing and electrical degrees from Miami University. The combination of these degrees led him to the fitness, where he not only sold equipment but he helped design it as well.
Going back to his strong belief in education, Holzberger began using his knowledge of the beauty industry to throw in-salon events and advanced education classes. It was this push for education that eventually led him to open both Aveda Frederic's Institutes in Cincinnati and Indianapolis.
Now, Holzberger is being considered for induction into the hall of fame for the North American Hair Dresser of the Year Awards, which is "the Academy Awards of the beauty industry," Holzberger says. "So I'm very honored because it's in the same league as the Vidal Sassoons and people like Horst Rechelbacher, who was the founder of Aveda."
This potential hall of famer owes part of his success to reading the trends before they begin. Before the spa industry started booming, Holzberger saw the potential for spa products, equipment and services.
Today, Holzberger sees a major change in men toward caring more about their appearance. From focusing more on their health to receiving more salon and spa services, the 21st century man is becoming more and more focused on improving his self-image, Holzberger says.
In the beauty industry, this trend has led "hair color" to pass "hair cutting" in the list of profit centers for high-end salons, Holzberger says. So whether young men are looking to give themselves the edge with some spot color or older men are trying to look younger in the workplace, hair color is spreading from one man's head to the next. And the industry is expecting a four percent growth each year in this industry sector for the next five years.
"It's the greatest new day for the man more than anything else because of the way we're evolving — older and older, but still looking better and better," Holzberger says. "And that's going to be the future."

Juniper Schnapps
Juniper schnapps - based on fresh, black juniper cones - has a beautiful bright yellow colour and a sweet, spicy and very enjoyable taste.
Serve with smoked ham, venison meat, pork and poultry. Or add a little schnapps to barbecue sauces and stews.
Excellent as drink before and after dinner - or added to tonic water.
Common Juniper
Juniperus communis
The common juniper plant is a small evergreen shrub or tree with needle-like leaves and yellow flowers.
The fruit is a berry-like cone about the size of a pea. The cones mature on the plant after two years.
First year they are green or grey-green, second year blue or black and covered with a bluish bloom.
Both unripe and ripe cones can be seen on the same plant.
Among other uses, the cones are used to flavour the Dutch Genever.
The cones - as well as the leaves - are also used in various dietary supplements and herbal remedies.
Here in Denmark, common juniper grows wild in gravel or sandy soil in open woods, wood edges, heaths, sandy hillsides, and coast shrubs.
It's found throughout the country, especially in middle and west Jutland (Jylland), on the small island of Bornholm, and at the chalk cliffs of Møn (Møns Klint).
For best result, use only fresh, black and fully ripe juniper cones.
The green ones taste awful (like turpentine) and the blue ones don't taste good either.
But the black ones have a bitter-sweet taste and they are great for making a very delicious schnapps.
It's difficult to pick the cones because of the needle-like leaves. Instead, shake the branches over a groundsheet.
You can use dried juniper cones - just crush them a little before steeping.
After some time you will notice essential oil globules on the surface of your schnapps. That´s quite normal and the way it should be - just shake the bottle before use.
Note: If for some reason you are not satisfied with your infusion, there are ways to adjust both taste and flavours - click here to see how.
Serve your juniper schnapps at room temperature in suitable glasses. And remember to keep your schnapps bottle tightly closed and in a dark place before and between servings.

Backpack Sprayers
Replace the tips. One study reported that brass tips wear out at about 10 percent per year. This means that every year a tip is putting out 10-percent more product than it was the previous year. New tips are cheaper than a 10-percent increase in product cost.
Preventative Maintenance = Money In The Bank
Don't wait for a sprayer to fail, thus leading to downtime. Perform the required preventative maintenance. This usually involves:
- A tear-down
- Thoroughly cleaning of the tank and all parts
- Replacement of O-rings, gaskets, and worn parts
- Lubrication of moving parts.
Observe employees. Despite the best training, technicians don't always follow parks and recreation department procedures. Supervisors should conduct ride-alongs to observe employees using equipment in the field. Conduct truck inspections to ensure equipment is properly maintained.
Store equipment properly. Make sure there is a secure place for sprayers on the trucks. They are often damaged from bouncing around, being stepped on, or damaged by other equipment.
Provide occasional training. Just because techs are trained on their first day doesn't mean they are doing what they are supposed to be doing. Provide periodic reinforcement training to emphasize good practices.
Keep track of parts. Track equipment failures to see which parts are failing, which replacement parts need to be stocked, or which equipment is not appropriate for a service program. Track these failures by technician in order to identify training opportunities.
A backpack sprayer is critical to a department's success. Invest the time to train employees, and properly maintain equipment. Follow up to ensure the task is completed. This will keep employees productive and on schedule, and repair expenses to a minimum.
Andrew Greess is the President of Quality Equipment & Spray, which designs and builds custom landscape spray equipment. He can be reached at www.qspray.com, or follow him on Facebook. For more information or to share your thoughts, check out his blog at www.sprayequipmentblog.com.

It's Holy Week, as a Roman Catholic it's our tradition to have Visita Iglesia (in English Church Visits). In the Philippines we faithfully carry this tradition of Fourteen Station of the Cross with one station for each church in order to pray and meditate on the Passion of Jesus Christ. Most Roman Catholics do this every Maundy Thursday or in Good Friday.
What to bring? Here are a few tips…
1. Bring your station of the cross booklets and your prayer intentions.
2. Bring your penlight or small flashlight in case to read your prayer booklet (some churches requires a light coz its dark).
3. Bring cold water, juices and snacks especially if you visiting churches with kids, extra shirt, hand towel and some extra money incase for lunch on or after visita inglesia.
4. Charge your cellphones and check your car if its in condition.
5. Plan your itinerary of the fourteen churches you will visited.
Here is some pictures of the churches of Davao City.
Some of the church optional are:
Santo Rosario Church in Toril
San Lorenzo Church in Puan
Immaculate Conception Parish in Mintal
Santo Niño of Prague Shrine Hills in Matina
San Antonio De Padua Church in Agdao
Saint Joseph the Carpenter Church in Sasa

2001 Toyota Celica Overview
Overall User Score
Based on 28 reviews
The 2001 Toyota Celica was did not see any changes, as it was redesigned the year before.
The 2001 Toyota Celica was available only as a hatchback, which came as a GT or sportier GT-S. The GT came with a 1.8 liter, 140 horsepower engine. The sportier GT-S, which had distinctive exterior and interior styling, came with a 1.8-liter, 180 horsepower engine. This generation was also the first Celica to come available with a six-speed manual transmission. The GT engine got about 27/34 mpg, and the GT-S engine got about 23/30 mpg.
Drivers love the look of the 2001 Celica, some even comparing it to a Ferrari. Owners of the car also love that they can get a sporty-looking vehicle that comes with Toyota reliability. Many complain that the back seat is too small, and some say that visibility is poor to the rear.

Is Global Warming a Crisis?
Submitted by DeepDiveAdmin on May 22, 2008
Global warming has quickly become one of the most heated issues in America (pun intended). Rising temperatures and melting icebergs are indisputable evidence that the Earth is warming, but is this global heat wave a man-made crisis or just overblown hype?

This section describes a number of common use cases in which Smooks can be used.
|Table of Contents
|Include Page
Groovy Scripting
Support for Groovy based scripting is made available through the http://www.milyn.org/xsd/smooks/groovy-1.1.xsd configuration namespace. This adds support for DOM or SAX based Groovy scripting.
Example configuration:
|No Format
<?xml version="1.0"?> <smooks-resource-list xmlns="http://www.milyn.org/xsd/smooks-1.1.xsd" xmlns:g="http://www.milyn.org/xsd/smooks/groovy-1.1.xsd"> <g:groovy executeOnElement="xxx"> <g:script> <!-- //Rename the target fragment element from "xxx" to "yyy"... DomUtils.renameElement(element, "yyy", true, true); --> </g:script> </g:groovy> </smooks-resource-list>
Mixed DOM and SAX with Groovy
Because Groovy has a number of very useful DOM processing features, we added support for the mixed DOM and SAX processing models.
What this means is that you can use Groovies DOM utilities to process the targeted message fragment. The "element" received by the Groovy script will be a DOM Element. This makes Groovy scripting via the SAX filter a lot easier, while at the same time maintaining the ability to process huge messages in a streamed fashion.
Mixed DOM and SAX Example
Take an XML message such as:
|No Format
<shopping> <category type="groceries"> <item>Chocolate</item> <item>Coffee</item> </category> <category type="supplies"> <item>Paper</item> <item quantity="4">Pens</item> </category> <category type="present"> <item when="Aug 10">Kathryn's Birthday</item> </category> </shopping>
Using Groovy, we want to modify the "supplies" category in the shopping list, adding 2 to the quantity, where the item is "Pens". To do this, we write a simple little Groovy script and target it at the <category> elements in the message. The script simple iterates over the <item> elements in the category and increments the quantity by 2, where the category type is "supplies" and the item is "Pens":
|No Format
<?xml version="1.0"?> <smooks-resource-list xmlns="http://www.milyn.org/xsd/smooks-1.1.xsd" xmlns:g="http://www.milyn.org/xsd/smooks/groovy-1.1.xsd"> <params> <param name="stream.filter.type">SAX</param> </params> <g:groovy executeOnElement="category"> <g:script> <!-- use(DOMCategory) { // Modify "supplies": we need an extra 2 pens... if (category.'@type' == 'supplies') { category.item.each { item -> if (item.text() == 'Pens') { item['@quantity'] = item.'@quantity'.toInteger() + 2; } } } } // When using the SAX filter, we need to explicitly write the fragment // to the result stream... writeFragment(category); --> </g:script> </g:groovy> </smooks-resource-list>

Weekend Plans...Jan. 25 - Jan. 27
Find a Conversation
|Sat, 01-26-2013 - 10:42am
Guess I'm supposed to be doing the weekend plans too.
If anyone else would like to be the "doer" after this, feel free to take over please.
Anyhoo...What's going on this weekend?
Anyone having any fun? Staying home and relaxing?
Let us know please to satisfy our curiosity!
|Sun, 01-27-2013 - 10:24am
Please forgive the reply to you both Karyn & Donna like this but way too frustrating this morning,
Anyways .. Karyn .. sounds like a terrific time but how can it not be with temps so nice!
Fun on the kayaking & just relaxing in the sun.
Hopefully Monday takes forever to get here so you can enjoy it longer <g>
Safe travels back!
Donna .. love that pic & DH's new toy looks tons of fun, LOL
Too cute on your grand kids getting in the pic as well .. lov eit!
Hope that new toy of DH's will keep him busy for a way <wink>
No doubt you all had a great time!
Sitting in the rain huh .. nice!
Hoping you have some nice weather for your High Tea party & can't wait to see pics :)
|Sun, 01-27-2013 - 1:22am
Karyn...Sounds like a great time you're having!! You're doing such fun stuff and what great weather!! Sure wish we were where you are!! :)
|Sun, 01-27-2013 - 1:19am
Hugs...Ummm..let's see..what did I buy Friday night..just party stuff I think, wrapping paper, paper products, bday cake, card & valentine's card too and other stuff like that.
My gift to dh was probably the most fun gift I'd ever given him!! Great surprise for him! He's been talking about wanting one for years. It's tricky learing to fly it, though, so we'll have to go back to the store and let the man there talk him through a few things before he begins. I'll post a photo below. It has a 3' wing span! The photo also has my silly youngest grands who had to get in on the photo op!! LOL! I got dh a couple of other fun things, too. They are two different types of chess games.
Okay, I'll try to remember to take photos of all of us at the High Tea in our boas!! :)
Here's hubby with his new toy.....
|Sun, 01-27-2013 - 1:02am
Hugs...Great, glad you found a cook top you like! Bummer on it taking so long to get delivered. That's what it was like for us with our microwave too. Once it's in, though, you'll love it!
We got a little rain tonight too. It was such a welcome surprise that my dh's youngest grandson (age 16) and I were out on our deck enjoying getting rained on! Unfortunately, it didn't last very long. Nice while it did though.
IV's pages were loading so slowly earlier today that I had to give it up. That's saying a lot for I am such a IV diehard and never give up!! I'm back though.
|Sat, 01-26-2013 - 11:58pm
Hi from sunny Florida! Having a good time. 80* today. We went to an outdoor festival today, bought some stuff from vendors, they had music and food of course. My dh went sailing with his dad and a friend yesterday. I sat in the sun and read. Oh and today dh and I went kayaking, it was so relaxing just floating around the island watching the pelicans...not sure what we're doing tomorrow, going home Monday. Have a good rest of the weekend!
|Sat, 01-26-2013 - 4:09pm

Last night we priced cook tops at Home depot & again today at Best Buy.
Ordered one from BB .. a 5 burner one, nice!
Won't be delivered til February 19th as it was on back order ::sigh::
Other than that usual errands & chores.
Sunday suppose to be cool & wet so probably just hang around inside.
Hope every one has a great weekend :)
|Sat, 01-26-2013 - 11:46am
Today, iVillage pages are loading *extremely slow* on all three of my browsers!!
Yikes, what a weekend!!! I was gone most of yesterday...monthly women's brunch...home to visit with dh...took a nap...went to a meeting...went shopping...finally got home around 7pm and relaxed the rest of the night with dh and watched movies. Whew!
Saturday...dh just got home from a men's book study and I'm heading to the grocery store in a little bit. Tonight we're having dh's bday party at our house. We'll get pizza delivery and I'll pick up some breadsticks, dipping sauce, salad & dressings, cake and ice cream. I still have to wrap dh's gifts too.
Sunday...church if we're not too tired to go. Out for Chinese dinner. My youngest dgd's High Tea at my dd1's house. DH is the only "boy" invited as it's his actual bday day and dgd wants him to be there. She's getting a small bday cake in his honor. Sweet! We ladies will wear boas and dh will wear a tie. We'll watch a new Hallmark movie that night on ABC channel.
Monday I am not going to do anything!!

The house was quite common in a small terrace of five in the first morning, he walked toward the freshxxxtube door and look my best quiet and unobtrusive, but my heart was giving sends a rap drum beat for 5 miles in all directions. It was a relief to get to the glass door with hidden panels and press aware of the plastic door. I waited and looked away to see my tracks and was not pursued by the postman, the milkman, the MI5 or a private investigator.. as if he knew. I looked back at the door and looked at the glass begins to look closely at a blurr and then a hand in the center and reach the doorknob. I cleared my throat and took Gibraltar from a nervous smile on my stomach. The door opened to the side and say he was smiling at the sight of a rather large man from ear to ear and eager : "Hello, come in, come in " frozen with a rapid gesture. I looked over to avoid falling on my face and reminded himself to lookI entered the hall and thick warm carpets. "Hello " was all I could, as a newbie chat room. He was tall and dark. Aftershave smelled fake, as I did for inviting me and sat meekly brushed often. "The tea / coffee ?" He said suddenly, "No thanks freshxxxtube " I replied rather than a reaction to a preference. He rose and opened his pants to fall to the ground and kicked and a new pair of shoes, at the same time, like their white socks and a shirt. I smiled when I saw the end of his swing on the button tantalizingly hidden under his shirt. Without it I find myself staring as if hypnotized. She completed her way to me, but I was sure that I do not want to enter the room with the curtains open, so he stood up and ran to the room. He went obediently, and when I got an idea came freshxxxtube to me.. in the hall, why not? Turning quickly, I brushed my hand against the tip of his cock and " Sit," he said firmly and to my surprise, that dIdentification with such grace falls wall with your knees bent and feet planted on the base otherwise, so your command to kiss the ground, it means that he began to shake in life. freshxxxtube "Horny " I cried as I hurried to the room of a pillow, I got up quickly and threw it between her legs. I dragged freshxxxtube my pants, jumping on him, but freshxxxtube managing to balance my boxers and shoes took a very short time and gave him between the legs with his back against the wall. Our tails are joined on the floor that was not as stiff as a board now, " Nice," he said as he stared shamelessly from every angle. freshxxxtube The attention that caused a pulse, a hint of my foreskin I retired to my pink slit and small groups to reveal pre-cum. He leaned forward and blew hot air at the tail of mehis own caresses my hand, leaving the land rises up, revealing veins and inflammation, as it was dragging a bag of balls hanging behind him. We smiled at each other and then, as one, the four hands are dipped into the well of the cock and scrotum. Luckily I went to the top and went down. I pushed and pulled down so that the bells of pink and slightly open mouth pressed welcomingly. Gently and slowly moved to expose two dark edges. "Oh yes," he said, cupping his balls and freshxxxtube rollers, like bags of marbles. We pushed against the walls together to force the roots of our members rigid. My legs well above the edge so that your thighs were set in constant contact. My bag was soft and warm freshxxxtube with palm cupping and freshxxxtube rubbing. My butt was wet and slipped a finger ring street around me tight, and a shiver through me and a contraction of my shaft.

COLUMBIA, Tenn. (AP) -- The Maury County Arts Guild has dropped plans to buy the old Polk Theatre in downtown Columbia.
Instead, The Daily Herald reports the group will try to purchase the former home of the First Baptist Church to renovate into a cultural arts center.
A spokeswoman said the guild was unable to raise enough money to buy the theatre, and the church could be acquired and renovated more quickly.
Susan Manning, arts guild president, described it as a "mini Ryman Auditorium," referring to the former tabernacle in Nashville that is a venue for music including the Grand Ole Opry at times.

Paradise award winning ORAC Energy Earth's Blend is truly a Natural Synergized superfood multivitamin. Our formula uses real whole-food goodness paired with vitamins, minerals, probiotics and herbs to go beyond mere deficiencies and help support overall whole system health.Based on our original ORAC ENERGY GREENS formula, just one vegetarian capsule gives you the antioxidant power of 7 servings of fruits and vegetables (4000+ ORAC) while supporting sustained energy, focus, vitality, immunity and well-being.Free radicals are reactive species that can have adverse effects on normal physiological functions. The five major types of free radicals (hydroxyl, peroxyl, peroxynitrite, singlet oxygen and superoxide anion), can be associated with a wide range of degenerative health conditions. Antioxidants can function as a vital line of defense against free radicals by blocking their attack on DNA, vital proteins, lipids and amino acids.Recent technology has resulted in a comprehensive new testing method called the Total ORAC Assay. With the development of the Total ORAC test, it is now possiable to target and measure the effects of superfoods, vitamins, and antioxidants on the full range of major free radicals found in the body.Ultra Absorption + Highest QualityUnlike tablets that contain binders, fillers, magnesium stearate or stearic acid (which may inhibit absorption), our vegetarian capsules dissolve quickly in the digestive tract. In addition we provide the active, readily usable forms of vitamins B2, B6 & B12 while using the most soluble and absorbable mineral chelates as (Krebs) bound to citrate, aspartate-malate.
Other Ingredients:
100% Vegetarian Capsules (vegetable material)
Food Sensitivity:
No fillers, binders or common allergens.Suitable for vegetarians.
As with any supplement, if you are pregnant, nursing or taking medication, consult your doctor before use. Do not use if either tamper-evident seal is broken or missing. Keep out of reach of children.

We will provide ideas to help you design a sequence of vegetable crops that maximizes the chance to grow good cover crops as well as reduce pest and disease likelihood. We will discuss formal rotations as well as ad hoc systems for shoehorning minor crops into available spaces. The workshop will discuss cover crops suitable at various times of year, particularly winter cover crops between vegetable crops in successive years. We will include examples of undersowing of cover crops in vegetable crops and of no-till options.

Expression Engine just wasn't for me. It hurt my brain. I wanted to make it work, it seems a lovely piece of software.
But it was too much for what I do; I realized that my website is a hobby, something I do for fun, enjoyment and relaxation and I spent nearly a full year unable to do anything with my site because I was so flummoxed by EE and that was just dumb. EE was supposed to make things easier – well, easier than updating everything by hand, at least – but it was just bogging things down.
So no EE. I'm using WordPress instead, and I'm liking it a lot. And I don't feel badly about giving up on EE at all.

A judge on Friday extended a temporary restraining order on Valley Meat Company. The Attorney General filed for the restraining order, saying the company would violate state laws.
In court on Friday, Judge Matthew Wilson spoke frankly. "The equities in this case weigh heavily on both sides," Wilson said.
Wilson agreed that both sides need more time to present detailed evidence, and acknowledged that any final decision will have widespread impact.
"The food being introduced into the food supply, that may be harmful to the human population," Wilson said.
Valley Meat owner Rick De Los Santos promptly disputed those concerns.
"I believe it's safe. I'd feed it to my family," he said.
He cannot definitively say he'd closely follow state law. He's violated it in years past by not submitting required reports to the state on time.
"There's no guarantee that something like that doesn't happen again as far as missed turning in monitoring reports," De Los Santos said.
He also said his facility would not open Saturday, saying that he'd need ten days to fix up the plumbing system and install a septic tank.
Judge Wilson extended the restraining order until January 13, ten days from now. That's when Valley Meat and the attorney general's office will take part in another hearing that's expected to last an entire day. They will both bring witnesses to the stand to testify.

The first round of Tizen devices will likely run on Exynos 4 chips
We're still a few months away from seeing the first Tizen phones hitting the open market, but we're seeing some indications of the kind of processors that may be used in the first round of handsets. Given that Tizen is a joint venture between Samsung and Intel, you would assume that one or both of those companies would be supplying the chipsets for the devices, and we're seeing evidence it will be Samsung.
Apparently, Samsung has been submitting code to the Tizen repository that explicitly reference the Exynos 4 Quad (4412), and there have also been lines that reference 4×12, which could point to support for the Exynos 4 Dual (4212) as well. Going on a timeline of right now, this sounds like good news, but keep in mind that the Exynos 5 series chips are already on the market.
So, if Tizen devices are launching with Exynos 4 in Q3 as expected, that would definitely put Tizen devices on a lower tier, although the chips would still offer very good performance.

YUIN PK3 Earbuds
" The PK3 is a great, warm earbud. It does vocals especially well because it is very mid-focused. It has impressive bass extension, not especially strong impact; the trebles are smooth and may roll off too soon for clarity and detail nuts. But the mids are what the PK3 are all about. " --kmhaynes
Yuin Pk1 Earphones
" These were my sweetest sounding head-gear yet. It would be brilliant all-rounder if it would not require a portable amp for portable use. This is the first reason i left it, otherwise i almost got an ear infection from those foams.., they get dirty in a few weeks of massive use. I recommend them to clean, i boiled them in water. " --angevoi
Yuin OK1 Earphones
" Well firstly this is not a true iem. The sound is about as great as one could get from an earbud. In my limited experience and without trying the pk1, I would say these are the finest buds you can buy. With that said, these are not for everyone, this is a niche product within an already niche market. I find driving it with my D12 anaconda makes for a pleasurable sound,..." --Jamesdeandoa

The new XTZ EarPhone-12 with a dedicated iOS app for DSP sound correction will blow your mind! The EarPhone-12 is our first earphone ever! Obviously, as you could expect from XTZ, we went for something completely new. The idea behind this project was not only to create a good earphone, maybe with an excellent price/quality ratio, but to build something revolutionary, something that expresses...
Yuin Pk2 Earphones
PK2 earphones are the low impedance version of PK1. Although not as good as PK1, PK2's sound signature is similar to PK1. You don't have to drive PK2 with an expensive head-amp. If you are looking for something with high performance/price ratio, PK2 might be the best choice.

Snow, ice, bitter cold and sleet failed to deter thousands of enthusiasts converging on Gwrych Castle for the annual Dragon Valley...
Why ride hundreds of miles on treacherous roads astride lightweights, heavyweights, outfits and even mopeds to camp in sub-zero temperatures in Wales? Organising Conway Club secretary Laurence Irving had the answer; a bowl of soup and a tin badge, of course.
Gates for early arrivals opened at 4pm on Friday and by 10.30pm on Saturday evening 2369 hardy souls had signed in at the caravan control, each with their tales of derring-do. Perhaps the most heart-warming was that of German sidecarist Ulrich Schwab (BMW R69S). "He was bowling along the M1 with his two friends when he ran onto reserve and had to turn off at the next exit. No fuel station was to be seen so Ulrich asked directions of a 16-year-old lad. In no time the boy recognised them as 'Dragonists.' He took them home to meet his father John Watts, an enthusiast even at that time preparing for Gwrych. The Germans were invited to stay the night."

DIY Idea: Rolling Basket
I came across this lovely basket by C.S. Post & Co. on Pinterest, and of course my first thought was "surely I could make that." I love the generous size, and I know Elliot would enjoy pushing her toys from room too room (she does it anyway, so the basket may as well have wheels!).
I later spotted this basket at HomeGoods and think it is a lovely candidate for a DIY version. I've been looking for attractive and affordable baskets for toys for months, so had I not just -- literally days before -- spent $60 on a pair of baskets from the Privet Home for Target collection (which seems to not be available online anymore), I would have snapped it up.
brass casters to it.

It's hard to say no to Meredith Vieira. While putting together her new daytime show, NBCUniversal executives let the host pick her executive producer, sidekick, band — even the furniture on her set (a tatty, pet-ravaged couch from her Westchester, New York, home). Perhaps the "suits" — as Vieira calls them — are aware that she is one of the rare TV talents who is not afraid to walk away from it all.
After becoming, at age 35 in 1989, the youngest correspondent ever hired by 60 Minutes, she left the prestigious CBS newsmagazine two years later to have her second child when then-executive producer Don Hewitt refused her request to work part-time. Her very public decision sparked a national conversation on the challenges for women who balance motherhood and career. After an Emmy award-winning stint on the ABC newsmagazine Turning Point, she changed course, becoming a founding panelist on the daytime coffee klatch The View in 1997.

Senate Floor Statement on S. 447, the Prevent Excessive Speculation Act
Friday, February 13, 2009
Mr. President, over the past couple of years energy prices have taken the American people on an unpredictable, expensive, and damaging roller coaster ride. In early 2007, a barrel of crude oil cost about $50. Over the course of the year, the price rose steeply, nearly doubling by the end of the year to almost $100 per barrel. Oil prices continued to soar through the first half of 2008, peaking at nearly $150 per barrel in July. Then, over the next few months, oil prices crashed back down to $35 per barrel, a drop of over $110 per barrel.
These huge price swings cant be explained by simple changes in supply and demand. Even taking into account the recession now plaguing our country and the world economy, many market analysts believe that it was a stampede of speculators into the crude oil futures market that first drove prices far higher than justified by global supply and demand, and now an exodus of those same speculators has driven prices much lower than justified by supply and demand.
Like crude oil, the natural gas, gasoline, and heating oil markets have also seen large price changes. The prices are way up, theyre way down, theyre unpredictable making it impossible for many businesses and consumers to plan for and afford energy costs and related goods and services.
Unpredictable energy prices continue to take a tremendous toll on millions of American consumers and businesses. Unless we act to protect our energy markets from excessive speculation and price manipulation, the American economy will continue to be vulnerable to wild price swings affecting the prices of transportation, food, manufacturing and everything in between, endangering the economic security of our people, our businesses, and our nation.
Congress should act now to help tame rampant speculation and reinvigorate supply and demand as market forces.
That is why I am re-introducing legislation today that is nearly identical to the legislation I and others introduced near the end of the last provides strong and workable measures to prevent excessive speculation and price manipulation in U.S. energy and agricultural markets. It will close the loopholes in our commodities laws that now impede the policing of U.S. energy trades on foreign exchanges and in the unregulated over-the-counter market. It will ensure that large commodity traders cannot use these markets to hide from CFTC oversight or avoid limits on speculation. It will strengthen disclosure, oversight, and enforcement in U.S. energy markets, restoring the financial oversight that is crucial to protect American consumers, American businesses, and the U.S. economy from further energy shocks.
This legislation, which addresses commodity markets, is one important piece of the broader reform effort needed to repair our financial regulatory system, stop abusive practices, and put the cop back on the beat in all of our markets.
Specifically, this particular legislation would make four sets of changes.
- First, it would require the CFTC to set limits on the holdings of traders in all of the energy futures contracts traded on regulated exchanges to prevent traders from engaging in excessive speculation or price manipulation. Since we closed the Enron loophole last year all futures contracts must be traded in regulated markets.
- Second, it would close the London loophole by giving the CFTC the same authority to police traders in the United States who trade U.S. futures contracts on a foreign exchange and by requiring foreign exchanges that want to install trading terminals in the United States to impose comparable limits on speculative trading as the CFTC imposes on domestic exchanges to prevent excessive speculation and price manipulation.
- Third, it would close the swaps loophole by requiring traders in the over-the-counter energy markets to report large trades to the CFTC, and it would authorize the CFTC to set limits on trading in the presently unregulated over-the-counter markets to prevent excessive speculation and price manipulation.
- Finally, it would require the CFTC to revise the standards that allow traders who use futures markets to hedge their holdings to exceed the speculation limits that apply to everyone else.
My Permanent Subcommittee on Investigations has shown that one key factor in price spikes of energy is increased speculation in the energy markets. Traders are now trading millions of contracts for future delivery of oil, creating a demand for paper contracts that gets translated into increases in prices and increasing price volatility.
Much of this increase in trading of futures has been due to speculators who are not in the oil business but who are buying and selling oil futures contracts in the hope of making a profit from changing prices. According to the CFTCs data, the number of futures and options contracts held by speculators grew from around 100,000 contracts in 2001, which was 20% of the total number of outstanding contracts, to almost 1.2 million contracts last fall, representing almost 40% of the outstanding futures and options contracts in oil on NYMEX. Even these statistics understate the increase in speculation, since the CFTC data classifies futures trading involving index funds as commercial trading rather than speculation, and the CFTC classifies all traders in commercial firms as commercial traders, regardless of whether any particular trader in that firm may, in fact, be speculating.
Basic economic theory tells us that the greater the demand there is to buy futures contracts for the delivery of a commodity, the higher the price will be for those futures contracts.
Not surprisingly, therefore, massive speculation that the price of oil will increase, together with massive purchases of futures contracts in pursuit of that belief, have, in fact, helped increase the price of oil to a level far above the price justified by the traditional forces of supply and demand.
In June 2006, I released a Subcommittee report, The Role of Market Speculation in Rising Oil and Gas Prices: A Need to Put a Cop on the Beat. This report found that the traditional forces of supply and demand didnt account for sustained price increases and price volatility in the oil and gasoline markets. The report concluded that, in 2006, a growing number of trades of contracts for future delivery of oil occurred without regulatory oversight and that market speculation had contributed to rising oil and gasoline prices, perhaps accounting for $20 out of a then-priced $70 barrel of oil.
Oil industry executives and experts arrived at similar conclusions. As oil prices neared $100 in late 2007, the President and CEO of Marathon Oil said, $100 oil isnt justified by the physical demand in the market. It has to be speculation on the futures market that is fueling this. At about the same time, Mr. Fadel Gheit, oil analyst for Oppenheimer and Company described the oil market as a farce. The speculators have seized control and its basically a free-for-all, a global gambling hall, and it wont shut down unless and until responsible governments step in. In January of 2008, when oil first hit $100 per barrel, Mr. Tim Evans, oil analyst for Citigroup, wrote: [T]he larger supply and demand fundamentals do not support a further rise and are, in fact, more consistent with lower price levels. At a joint hearing on the effects of speculation my Subcommittee held in late 2007, Dr. Edward Krapels, a financial market analyst, testified: Of course financial trading, speculation affects the price of oil because it affects the price of everything we trade. ... It would be amazing if oil somehow escaped this effect. Dr. Krapels added that as a result of this speculation there is a bubble in oil prices.
Last summer, the Presidents and CEOs of major U.S. airlines described the disastrous effects of rampant speculation on the airline industry. The CEOs stated: normal market forces are being dangerously amplified by poorly regulated market speculation. The CEOs wrote: For airlines, ultra-expensive fuel means thousands of lost jobs and severe reductions in air service to both large and small communities.
To rein in this rampant speculation, the first step to take is to put a cop back on the beat in all our energy markets to prevent excessive speculation, price manipulation, and trading abuses.
Limits on Speculation in Futures Markets
With respect to the commodity futures markets, the legislation we are introducing today requires the CFTC to establish limits on the amount of futures contracts any trader can hold. Currently, the CFTC allows the futures exchanges themselves to set these limits. This bill would require the CFTC to set those limits to prevent excessive speculation and price manipulation. It would preserve, however, the exchanges obligation and ability to police their traders to ensure they remain below these limits.
This legislation would also require the CFTC to conduct a rulemaking to review and revise the criteria for allowing traders who are using the futures market to hedge their risks in a commodity to acquire holdings in excess of the limits on holdings for speculators.
Closing the Enron Loophole
Another step is to give the CFTC authority to prevent excessive speculation in the over-the-counter markets. In 2007, my Subcommittee issued a report on the effects of speculation in the energy markets entitled, Excessive Speculation in the Natural Gas Market. This investigation showed that speculation by a single hedge fund named Amaranth distorted natural gas prices during the summer of 2006 and drove up prices for average consumers. The report demonstrated how Amaranth had shifted its speculative activity to unregulated markets, under the Enron loophole, to avoid the restrictions and oversight in the regulated markets, and how Amaranths trading in the unregulated markets contributed to price increases.
Following this investigation, I introduced a bill, S. 2058, to close the Enron loophole and regulate the un-regulated electronic energy markets. Working with Senators Feinstein and Snowe, and with the members of the Agriculture Committee in a bipartisan effort, we included an amendment to close the Enron loophole in the farm bill, which Congress passed last year.
Closing the Swaps Loophole
The legislation to close the Enron loophole placed over-the-counter (OTC) electronic exchanges under CFTC regulation. However, this legislation did not address the separate issue of trading in the rest of the OTC market, which includes bilateral trades through voice brokers, swap dealers, and direct party-to-party negotiations. In order to ensure there is a cop on the beat in all of the energy commodity markets, we need to address the rest of the OTC market as well.
A large portion of this OTC market consists of the trading of swaps relating to the price of a commodity. Generally, commodity swaps are contracts between two parties where one party pays a fixed price to another party in return for some type of payment at a future time depending on the price of a commodity. Because some of these swap instruments look very much like futures contracts except that they do not call for the actual delivery of the commodity there is concern that the price of these swaps that are traded in the unregulated OTC market could affect the price of the very similar futures contracts traded on the regulated futures markets. We dont yet know for sure that this is the case, or that it is not, because we dont have any access to comprehensive data or reporting on the trading of these swaps in the OTC market.
The legislation introduced today includes provisions to give the CFTC oversight authority to stop excessive speculation in the over-the-counter market. These provisions represent a practical, workable approach that will enable the CFTC to obtain key information about the OTC market to enable it to prevent excessive speculation and price manipulation.
Under these provisions, the CFTC will have the authority to ensure that traders cannot avoid the CFTC reporting requirements by trading swaps in the unregulated OTC market instead of regulated exchanges. It will enable the CFTC to act, such as by requiring reductions in holdings of futures contracts or swaps, against traders with large positions in order to prevent excessive speculation or price manipulation regardless of whether the traders position is on an exchange or in the OTC market.
This bill also gives the CFTC the authority to establish position limits in the over-the-counter market for energy and agricultural commodities in order to prevent excessive speculation and price manipulation. The CFTC needs this authority to ensure that large traders are not using the over-the-counter markets to evade the position limits in the futures markets.
Closing the London Loophole
The London loophole allowed crude oil traders in the U.S. to avoid the position limits that apply to trading on U.S. futures exchanges by directing their trades onto the ICE Futures Exchange in London.
In the last Congress, after I and others introduced legislation to close the London loophole that is similar to the legislation we are now introducing, the CFTC imposed more stringent requirements upon the ICE Futures Exchanges operations in the United Statesfor the first time requiring the London exchange to impose and enforce comparable position limits in order to be allowed to keep its trading terminals in the United States. This is the very action our legislation called for. However, the current CFTC position limits apply only to the nearest futures contract. Our legislation will ensure that foreign exchanges with trading terminals in the U.S. will apply position limits to other futures contracts once the CFTC establishes those limits for U.S. exchanges.
Although the CFTC has taken these important steps that will go a long way towards closing the London loophole, Congress should still pass this legislation to make sure the London loophole stays closed. The legislation would put the conditions the CFTC has imposed upon the London exchange into statute, and ensure that the CFTC has clear authority to take action against any U.S. trader who is manipulating the price of a commodity or excessively speculating through the London exchange, including requiring that trader to reduce positions.
The legislation also provides authorization for the CFTC to hire an additional 100 employees to oversee the commodity markets it regulates. The CFTC has been understaffed and underfunded for years. This authorization is a necessary first step to reinvigorate the agencys oversight and enforcement capabilities.
In summary, the legislation I am introducing today will give the CFTC ability to police all of our energy commodity markets to prevent excessive speculation and price manipulation. This legislation is necessary to close the loopholes in current law that permit speculators in commodity markets to avoid trading limits designed to prevent the type of excessive speculation that has been contributing to high energy and other commodity prices. I hope my colleagues will support this legislation.
I ask unanimous consent that the full text of my remarks, a copy of the bill, and a summary of the bill be inserted into the Congressional Record.

POINT REYES, CALIF., Sept 23, 2013 — Margaret Grade and Daniel DeLong have re-emerged into the culinary limelight with their latest landmark destination restaurant, Sir and Star, in the tiny West Marin County crossroads of Olema.
The proprietors of Manka's Inverness Lodge have purchased the historic Olema Inn, given it a charcoal grey coat of paint, and proceeded to create a wholly distinctive restaurant with the idiosyncratic style they are famous for. From unique starter plates to exquisite main course selections to eclectic menu item descriptions, Sir and Star redefines what makes a restaurant so inspirational that people will clamor for the chance to experience it.
SEE RELATED: A fine dining extravaganza at Gary Danko in San Francisco
Olema is barely a spit in the road, situated along Route 1 in the beautiful rolling grasslands almost equally between the remote hippie haven of Bolinas and the glorious wonders of Point Reyes. The Olema Inn opened originally on July 4, 1876, miraculously survived the 1906 San Francisco earthquake, and was completely renovated as a restaurant in 1998, along with the addition of a century old pine floor from a Virginia tobacco warehouse.
After the dining lodge at Manka's burned down 6 years ago, the resurrection by Margaret and Daniel of the Olema Inn last year as their new showcase restaurant represents a complete triumph for them, a return to form where he is the "Sir", and she is clearly the "Star".
The interior of Sir and Star retains its historic charm, with simple, almost colonial furniture, polished wood floors, and beautifully restored rooms that ooze classic 19th century sophistication. Margaret Grade is the matre d' extraordinaire, greeting guests tonight in an almost Mennonite linen dress and knitted beret, drifting from table to table and onto the expansive patio, speaking to diners and orchestrating the evening with flair and panache.
Chef Daniel DeLong mans the wildly busy kitchen, using local ingredients to turn out unique creations that have captured the imaginations of patrons and critics for more than a decade.
SEE RELATED: Elegantly chic: The Huntington Hotel and Nob Hill Spa
The menu changes daily, with plate descriptions that are as ephemeral as they are amusing. Thus "a trio of Drakes Bay oysters served as shots under a cloud of their essence with a baton of coastal kohlrabi" is a light and delicately perfect starter.
"Jesse's flowering spinach sprigs slightly sautéed and draped over a puree of primarily walnuts" is a mere sprite of an appetizer but a genuinely tasty mouthful.
"Marrow in the bone with a jam of local onions and tale that once wagged nearby" is a brilliant revelation, an otherworldly osso bucco. "The belly AKA bacon of local pork served with fennel and figs on a mission" delivers a sumptuous mission accomplished, like a divine roast Kahlua pork.
"Faux Gras of local duck livers so delicious it should be illegal" is exactly that, and worth being arrested for.
SEE RELATED: Elegantly chic: The Huntington Hotel and Nob Hill Spa
"Slow braised shank of goat last seen grazing on local grasses, now amidst Bolinas pea greens and agretti foraged from within reach" simply astonishes with its beautiful complexity. "A neighbors quail plumped with kale now nested in leaves of local wild rocket and a bird sauce accented with apricot" is an irresistible delight.
"Crisped Bolinas rock cod fit for two with fennel fronds, charred lemon and a buerre blanc" is a wonderful climax, served whole, and whose delicate meat pares from the fish in tender strips.
Starters are $10, appetizers run $12, and entrée courses are an extremely reasonable $20. Most portions are medium sized, a generous enthralling taste of cuisine that makes its mark, while leaving the desire for more.
Order a variety of dishes and entrees with the idea of sharing, and be sure to explore the all Marin County wine list, although they would do well to have included more profound selections from neighboring Sonoma.
Staying at Manka's Boathouse nearby is an extraordinary experience, an actual converted boathouse on Tomales Bay right next to the Inverness Yacht Club with its own 200 foot dock. With a sprawling interior, high ceilings, stunning bedroom chamber, distinctive charming décor, and complete privacy, it is easy to understand how it became the favorite secret retreat of celebrities like Brad Pitt and Jennifer Anniston.
A full kitchen, massive dining room, and soaring fireplace in the living room give way to a multi-tiered back deck with astonishing views leading to the lichen covered dock extending well into the bay.
This hidden wonder is the perfect romantic getaway, a grand rustic retreat, a place where its magnificent uniqueness is only exceeded by the splendor of its unquenchable charm. Sunset on the back porch with a fine bottle of wine is a transformative moment as fiery orange rays gleam off of Tomales Bay and streak through the windows of a neighbor's cabin suspended over the water.
Rise in the morning and walk to the end of the dock with a steaming mug of fresh Kona coffee, feeling the cool breeze off the water and the mist in the air.
Take in the joy of each moment spent in this spectacular hideaway, and reminisce with a broad smile about the unforgettable culinary wonders of an exhilarating dinner the night before at the truly distinctive Sir and Star.
