There are reports that the EU sent 170 observers, not 140, as I wrote yesterday. How many observers were there, in fact?
The higher number could be correct but the difference isn't material. Thirty more observers might add about 100 polling stations to the total visited, out of a total of 43,000. The total that had EU or African Union remains about 5%.
The EU's chief observer still says that the turnout was high, but he doesn't say that most of his information comes from the government, not from independent observers, least of all the small number in his group.
Here's his quote in a BBC report today:
"I do not know what the final turnout will be but it was very high. I think this in itself is encouraging," the chief EU observer Thijs Berman said
"The Ethiopian citizens have expressed their vote in a democratic, calm and peaceful way and massively," he said.
There were many local observers, but widespread complaints of interference with their efforts. Staffs from all embassies were banned from the countryside during the voting, removing a group of potential witnesses from the scene who could not be easily intimidated.
The truth, of course, is that African governments, like incumbents in the US (will this year be different?), usually win. Ethiopians are not really worse off today than they were before the election. That's both good news and bad news.
Wait till 2015!

Can you schedule a prenatal massage?
The stretch a pp suggested is a good one: the Cat-Cow Series. Here's a link to a demo: http://yoga.about.com/od/yogasequences/ss/catcow.htm
My pilates instructor adds a third stretch to the series where you start with a neutral spine position and then bend at the waist while on all fours -- right shoulder towards right foot, center, then left shoulder to left foot, back to center. When you bend it stretches the opposite side's hip muscle, which feels wonderful.

game1 Pronunciation noun, adjective, gam·er, gam·est, verb, gamed, gam·ing.
1. an amusement or pastime: children's games.
videogame1 Pronunciation noun,
1. A form of interactive electronic entertainment, more often than not steeped in all the misery and darkness of the deepest depths of Hell. No-one ever smiles and lots of things get shot.
It wasn't always this way. Those of us who became gamers during the 8 and 16-bit eras can remember when games were supposed to be fun. We quite liked that. It might make us sound like big mincing girls, we know, but seriously guys, why the misery nowadays? Why does almost every modern game hero (Sorry, anti-hero) seem to be shooting up the bad guys of his respective post-apocalyptic cess pit/drug-riddled urban hellhole just to fill in the time between arm-cutting sessions and My Chemical Romance concerts?
Somewhere along the line, things went wrong. In our obsession to have the gaming medium taken seriously we fell into the trap of trying to prove its maturity by filling it with 'deep' emotion and 'adult' content. Ironically though, the majority of what we got was whiney moping, sex and violence, all pretty adolescent pre-occupations when you think about it.
We're all for games maturing as a medium, but we we want to be enjoying our games, not reaching for the sleeping pills as we put down the joypad. There's nothing wrong with a bit of grit and emotion to keep things involving, but modern gaming dumps so much horror on our heads that it almost becomes funny.
Don't believe us? Start clicking and we'll take you through the archives of pain.

Local Medical IssuesHot Fun in the Summertime!
Summertime is here. If you spend time outdoors this summer with your furry best friends, here are some tips to help keep them healthy and safe.
Check-up- a summer check-up is recommended to assure your pet is healthy and free of parasites this summer. Is your dog and cat on a heartworm preventative? Flea and tick preventative? If not, make an appointment today!
No Parking!- Never leave your pet alone in a parked car. A shady spot and open windows will not keep your pet cool. Heatstroke can be fatal and is preventable.
Pool time- Never leave your dog unsupervised around a pool. Not all dogs are good swimmers. If your dog does take a dip, make sure to rinse him or her off after swimming to remove any chlorine or other chemicals from their fur.
Exercise- In extreme heat, we recommend to keep your pets indoors. The best time to exercise your pet is in the early morning or evening when temperatures are cooler. Avoid letting your dog walk on hot asphalt. The asphalt can burn sensitive paw pads.
Picnic time- Keep citronella candles, matches, lighter fluid, fireworks, alcoholic beverages, chocolate, grapes, onions, raisins and any product with the sweetner xylitol, away from pets.
Grooming- a short haircut can keep your dog cool this summer. Make a grooming appointment today!

Hybrid light bulb combines a halogen and a CFL for some reason
It seems like some people will buy anything that carries the word hybrid, but this latest hybrid from GE is something you'll find in the lighting aisle at the hardward store, not your local car dealership.
To get around the slow start up times of compact fluorescent (CFL) bulbs, GE has added a tiny halogen element that delivers instant brightness. The halogen part stays lit only until the CFL reaches full strength, after which the bulb works just like a regular CFL. Sure it can take a CFL up to a minute to get really bright, but are we really in such a rush that we need instant-on capabilities of a energy sucking halogen bulb to fill in for those few seconds?
According to GE, the hybrid bulb was developed in response to customer's concerns, but I suspect that most people who complain about the speed of CFLs are just looking for a handy excuse not to use them. To be honest, this looks more like a solution in search of a problem.
15 and 20-watt versions of the GE hybrid bulb will be available early next year. Pricing was not announced, but you can bet that they're not going to be cheap.

Hi Lorelay, I really like your work and hope that this interests you and your readers.
I am attempting to amass a large collection of portraits of Frankenstein's Monster in as many different styles and in as many different media as possible as an ongoing art project. The only stipulation is that the size is 2.5 inches by 3.5 inches (standard artist trading card size) and that each card has name, date, location, title and anything else you care to add on the back.
I welcome cards from both amateur and professional artists.
I will be leaving blank cards with instructions and mailing address in galleries, colleges, art shops, on buses, handing them out in the street and wherever else I can think of.
If you think you can spare the time to produce a little something, please send a portrait to:
A Patchwork Of Flesh
45 Silversea Drive
Westcliff on Sea
United Kingdom
Each card I receive will be uploaded at http://apatchworkofflesh.blogspot.com/ to produce an on-line gallery, I then hope to put on an exhibition of these cards in a gallery.
I would really appreciated if you could link me.

I can't stop looking at this piece. It's so beautiful. Is this gouache on illustration board? How long did this one take? Do you do an underdrawing or do you design the piece as you paint it? I love the skewed angles, the color palette, the appealing characters.

Best of Boston 2009
9 East St., Boston, 617-654-9900, oyarestaurantboston.com
It's been two years since chef Tim Cushman's refined sushi operation made a stealth entrance onto the scene, gradually picking up buzz until being "discovered" by gobsmacked foodies whose praise launched it to the national stage. Now, even as O Ya's new-kid glow has faded (and despite its stunning price point), the wait list remains impressively long. And we'll tell you why: Visit after visit, the hypnotic beauty of the food, seemingly simple but layered with clear flavors (white soy and yuzu glazing a sweet scallop, Thai basil and Szechwan pepper on sweet-salty eel), never fails to catch jaded palates off-guard—and has even been known to make some diners blush with delight.
RUNNERS-UP: Craigie on Main, Clio, Hamersley's Bistro:

When summer finally arrives in Boston, every restaurant with a patch of sidewalk scurries to put out a few wrought iron tables and hang its "al fresco" shingle. Sure, we'll take every ray of sun we can get, but our kudos in this category is reserved for spots with expansive, more thoughtful outdoor spaces. While Oleana's courtyard has long been a standout, there's just something wildly appealing and Secret Garden–like about the sunken back patio at the South End's B&G. Almost primitive in design, with seemingly rogue vines gripping the stone walls, it feels the way a real outdoor eatery should: comfortable and slightly magical, a lovely aesthetic backdrop to the splendor on the plate.

Flour, water, yeast, salt. Four lowlier ingredients are hard to imagine—as are the heights to which they can rise in the hands of master bakers like Clear Flour's husband-and-wife owners, Abe Faber and Christy Timon. Now in its third decade, their family shop turns out character-rich, deeply authentic European-style breads (pungent vollkornbrot, grassy sourdough) for Oleana, Toro, and other leading restaurants, as well as for a devoted walk-in clientele. Clinching the win is Clear Flour's metro location, which puts all this yeasty goodness within easy reach of carb-starved Bostonians.
RUNNERS-UP: B&R Artisan Bread, Iggy's
LAST YEAR: B&R Artisan Bread
One Belmont St., Cambridge, 617-661-3161, sofrabakery.com
Trailing orange blossom syrup and rose petal sugar, Ana Sortun's year-old bakery-café comes on like a Salome of sweets, beguiling the cupcake-and-cookie crowd with such Middle Eastern–inspired delicacies as Egyptian bread pudding and Syrian shortbread with rhubarb-rose jam. To pastry chef Maura Kilpatrick, our oversugared palates owe thanks for a much-needed dose of spice.
RUNNERS-UP: Flour, Canto 6
LAST YEAR: Flour
774 Boylston St., Boston, 617-266-8800, seldelaterre.com
To go along with its spanking-new digs, the Back Bay outpost of this country-French standby has installed a smart but casual downstairs café with a menu to match. We're partial to the za'atar-crusted wings and the two-handed burger with smoky bacon and Vermont cheddar (made positively gut-busting by a foie gras torchon), but since nothing tops $20, everything goes down easy.
RUNNER-UP: Garden at the Cellar
LAST YEAR: Blu
200 Hampden St., Boston, 617-306-0788
Over the past year, the mouthwatering aromas wafting from this rig near the corner of Hampden and Norfolk may as well have been smoke signals, announcing an upset was brewing in 2009. Indeed, this category's long-reigning suburban champ has seen its eponymous blue ribbon go instead to a gritty city underdog, literally a truck stationed in a Roxbury sandlot. The former's superior burnt brisket ends aside, recent visits found that its poultry had chickened out a bit on smoke flavor. By contrast, the succulent chicken, slow-grilled ribs, and tangy, faintly fiery sauce served up by M&M's near-legendary pit master, "Big Moe," stayed right on cue.
RUNNERS-UP: Blue Ribbon BBQ, Pit Stop Barbeque
LAST YEAR: Blue Ribbon BBQ
One Kendall Sq., Cambridge, 617-621-1200, thefriendlytoast.net
"Friendly Toast is coming!" "OMG! Friendly Toast!" Judging by the way local foodies were whipping themselves into a frenzy online, you'd think it was the second coming. But unless one finds salvation in pumpkin pancakes, pecan–caramelized banana waffles, and assorted scrambles, Benedicts, and omelets, the new outpost of this beloved Portsmouth, New Hampshire, institution is merely a really, really, really good place to have breakfast. The décor is retro and funky—all fifties dinette sets and Esso ads—and the food is a fresher, slightly fancier variation on diner classics, with homemade breads and sauces. The rapture? Maybe not. Divine? You bet.
RUNNER-UP: Deluxe Town Diner
LAST YEAR: Clio
1704 Washington St., Boston, 617-536-4300, toro-restaurant.com
A truly great brunch must hit four marks: a tasty and varied menu, a strong bar, a relaxed atmosphere, and outdoor seating. Over the past year, South End tapas joint Toro boosted its performance on the food-and-beverage front (it had already aced the chill mood and the patio), adding a selection of tapas and pinchos—tortilla Espanola, yellowfin crudo, etc.—to its regular lineup of vanilla-bourbon-banana French toast and huevos rancheros. It also hired bar manager Courtney Bissonnette (hubby is chef Jamie) to jazz up the cocktails. By so doing, Toro has cracked, poached, and scrambled its more conventional challengers.
RUNNERS-UP: Gaslight, Henrietta's Table
LAST YEAR: Eastern Standard
92 Kirkland St., Cambridge, 617-576-6328, savenorsmarket.com
Boston has become a bona fide haven for conscientious carnivores, what with Whole Foods boasting displays packed with New England meats and Lionette's Market touting pork from central Massachusetts and Vermont. Still, only Savenor's hits it right on the snout, with its reasonable (for the quality) prices and wide selection, which includes grass-fed Vermont beef and lamb for the leave-tiny-footprints contingent, plus generously marbled wagyu and sweet wild boar bacon for the occasional indulgence. Call ahead to its Cambridge flagship or its smaller shop on Beacon Hill, and they'll prep almost anything you'd want to roast or grill—from a trimmed crown roast to a trussed and ready-to-stuff whole goose.

When the French knighted owner Ihsan Gurdal, it became official: Formaggio is cheese nobility. The Cambridge store (with sister shops in the South End and New York) carries 300-plus varieties, representing nearly every region and technique, from Switzerland's Försterkäse to Massachusetts' own Carlisle Chabichou.

375 Main St., Malden, 781-388-3338, fuloon-restaurant.com
Chinese eateries have long been stuck between a wok and a hard place: hew to the Americanized hit parade, or risk alienating the crowds craving kung pao. Thankfully, a coup is afoot, with renegade restaurateurs positing fiery Szechwan as a sexier alternative to Cantonese lite. Fragrant camphor-smoked duck, velvety beef braised in mouth-numbing neon-orange peppercorn oil—all safely segregated, menuwise, from more broadly palatable fare. The newly chili-head-friendly New Shanghai wins points for Chinatown proximity and the addictive chung qing spicy chicken. Yet we're irresistibly drawn to Malden for FuLoon's haunting home-style bean curd, the entire "Wok Baked" series, and the bottomless pitchers of soothing H20.

CHOCOLATIER: Beacon Hill Chocolates
92B Pinckney St., Boston, 617-725-1900, beaconhillchocolates.com
As Boston's artisanal confectioners trend toward ever-weirder flavor combinations (poblano pepper truffles, bonbons oozing with olive oil), Beacon Hill Chocolates has us falling back in love with the classics: fillings like salted caramel and hazelnut praline delivered in beautifully tempered shells. The competition can just eat their quirky-candy hearts out.

By virtue of its excellence-obsessed baristas and premium roasters (Terroir, Barismo), our city is pouring itself a righteous coffee reputation that gives new meaning to the nickname "Beantown." Coffee nerds adore the top-quality espresso drinks pulled at the tiny Taste Coffee House (Newtonville) and the crowded Simon's Coffee Shop (Cambridge); however, only Harvard Square java den Crema has the full-service offerings impressive enough to take this year's title. To wit: stellar brew (they serve French press!), abundant seating inside and out, made-from-scratch food, and an inspiring independent spirit.

LAST YEAR: Diesel Café
1:30–7 p.m. Thursdays through 10/29, Belmont Center, belmontfarmersmarket.org
Picking the best farmers' market is like trying to pick the best heirloom tomato. What's not to love in any of the forms and flavors they take? All typically have lovely selections of just-plucked fruits, veggies, and herbs; however, the Belmont agricultural get-together earns bonus points (and a loyal following of chefs) for the bumper crop of other regional goodies it has on hand. Stock up on Bay State–bred pork, lamb, beef, and chicken; raw honey from local hives; handmade mozzarella from Somerville's Fiore di Nonno; brownies baked fresh at Malden-based Geoff & Drew's; and gelato from Belmont's own Angelato—and you'll find that dullsville weekly supermarket run looking downright superfluous.

When trying to lay your hands on the freshest catch in Boston, you could get up at 4 a.m., pull on rubber boots, and clump along to the fish pier to haggle with salty characters. Or you could sleep in until a decent hour, then do what the city's smartest cooks do: head to this venerable storefront in East Cambridge, where owner Carl Fantasia makes buying and preparing seafood a breeze, even for novices. He'll not only steer you to the tastiest specimens in the display case, but also point out which Portuguese olive oil will bring out the best in those bright-eyed sardines, and supply the nori needed to turn that sushi-grade tuna into hand-rolled maki.

Ever since L'Espalier shed its homey brownstone for the aseptic Mandarin hotel complex last year, the Franco-frontrunner has struggled to recapture the magic, leaving the field wide open for numerous worthy rivals. Buckets of beurre into testing, we narrowed our list to Clio, Salts, and Sensing (a gem, after a sloppy opening), all of which are seriously reenergizing this oft-stodgy category. In the end, though, Clio rose to the top. Now that his mini empire (Toro, La Verdad, Uni, KO Prime) is running smoothly, chef Ken Oringer has refocused on his flagship, turning out the kind of startling gastro-invention—e.g., scallop-shingled cod with yuzu-pea purée—we first fell in love with.

Burger slinging has come a long way from the Bartley's-Sully's turf wars of yore. Now a groundswell of ground-beef mania has chefs experimenting with custom meat blends, artisanal bunwork, and umami-boosting hocus-pocus. Along divergent paths, Middlesex (smoky bacon, griddled pickle, ciabatta) and KO Prime (foie gras, yuzu aioli, toasted-interior bulkie) raised mundane chuck to dizzying heights. But Radius (aged cheddar, lemon-horseradish mayo, housemade milk bun) tops them all with a mountain of crispy frizzled onions—which, as it turns out, is a little-known shortcut to gastro-enlightenment.

There's plenty of tasty Indian food around town—witness the lines of hungry grad students at Cambridge's Punjabi Dhaba, for one. But Harvard Square's Tamarind Bay Bistro (along with its newer sibling, the seafood-oriented Coastal Indian Kitchen in Brookline) is in a class of its own because it treats Indian cuisine as, well, an actual cuisine. Here you'll find regional distinctions more precise than "northern" and "southern," and taste the kinds of dishes, like butter chicken curry and the exceptional vegetable biryani, in which individual flavors sing out clearly, instead of fading into a haze of spice.

Like a Verdian lothario, this town's upscale Italian has a knack for breaking hearts. Leave a place transported by its pillowy gnocchi, and you can bet your Bolognese it'll be dense as lead when you go back for more. Spending more while testing this category than for French and Steakhouse combined, we mourned the fall of every contender, with consistency issues (Bina), new-project distraction (Dante), service glitches (Sorellina), and failure to inspire (everyone else). Sorry for the lame valentine, Rialto, but we've got baggage. Just say your roast duck will remain tender and your stellar pastas will stay true, and we'll break this serial-monogamy habit once and for all.

Talk about knowing your audience. With its giant bucket of crayons on the hostess stand and army of highchairs standing at the ready, this seafood favorite not only welcomes tots with open arms—there's even a balloon sculptor and free sundaes on Sunday evenings—but it also serves the grownups in tow some very respectable chow (think ceviche and wood-grilled lobster). The latter accommodation, in fact, nudged the Summer Shack ahead of perennial pick Full Moon, which, while wonderful for its party vibe and fully stocked play area, keeps the food on the so-simple-you-could've-made-it-at-home side.

Tony Maws isn't one of those chefs who tries to make it look easy. In his new Central Square digs, the open kitchen takes center stage, providing an unobstructed view of exactly how that (Vermont organic) lamb three ways and (Maine dayboat) halibut get onto the plate. Maws even spells out his principles on the Craigie website, including "First we find the ingredients, then we create the menu"—which means that every day he's sourcing what's local, in season, and, for the most part, organic. By degrees, Maws takes it further than anyone else in town, and his work is your reward.

In the quest for great Mexican, of which Boston has little (relative to, say, El Paso or San Diego), much recent praise has been heaped on the champions of "authentic" cuisine, and on pre-Hispanic recipes like cuitlacoche crêpes. But you know what? Sometimes we don't want to munch fried grasshoppers. Sometimes we want enchiladas with damn good rice and beans. And so we've rediscovered our love for Olé, where chef Erwin Ramos serves mole and pozole as authentic as any out there, but isn't too proud to serve chiles rellenos and shrimp tacos, too. (By the way: The latter, stuffed with pickled cabbage and gently fried camarones, are worth their weight in Spanish gold.)

Previous years have seen this contest split into mini categories like "Best Thin Crust" and "Best Toppings." But it's time to set aside compiled-ish things and commit to a single, superlative winner: namely, Picco, for combining the chewy-crisp crust of Santarpio's with the fresh (okay, "gourmet") toppings that have earned Emma's such a devoted following. It's the best of both worlds on a 14-inch disk of dough, and you won't find its match in the city.

Aside from a bounty of cheap burgers and greasy fries, this year's tour of pub grub options turned up a surprising lack of substantial (read: tummy-filling) dishes. Except, that is, at Matt Murphy's, where the farmhouse plate's country-style pâté is the size of a small brick and the soup arrives in a bowl as big as your head. Besides which, the food is outstanding. Try the tender, relish-slathered lamb sirloin sandwich or the piping-hot, supercrispy fish and chips, wrapped in newspaper—they're more than enough to make you forgive Matt Murphy's for not serving burgers.

It's a puzzle, how Barbara Lynch can manage to launch four restaurants, a bar, and two retail operations, all in different genres, while preserving the quality and essential Lynchness of each. And so we come to her most casual spot, Sportello, a minimalist midprice Italian diner—only here, the line cooks sling hiramasa crudo, chicken with dates and pine nuts, and mustard leaf agnolotti. It's a testament to the power of the gnocchi alone that the place is bouncing, despite the surrounding Fort Point Channel neighborhood's still-delayed gentrification. No other startup exhibited so much polish out of the gate, or such a pitch-perfect sense of the way we're eating now.

Lovebirds find a year-round habitat in Oleana, which beckons with a lush hidden garden in summer months and a cozy fireplace when the snow flies, as well as a menu of eastern Mediterranean sumptuousness that sets the mood no matter what the season. Chef Ana Sortun does contemporary riffs on moussaka, kibbeh, bisteeya, and other exotica that beg to be shared (bonus for vegetarian couples: a tasting menu that marries sophisticated spice with produce from Sortun's family farm). Should the evening's canoodling lead to something more permanent, Oleana's private-party setup and Sortun's inventive menu planning make for a truly unforgettable wedding feast.

Though we Bostonians are awash in seafood, there's shockingly little variety among those serving it to us. There are the clam shacks (Morse Fish Company, No Name), the executive favorites (Legal, Turner, Skipjack's, et. al), and the amusement parks (Barking Crab, Kingfish Hall). Only two restaurants truly cater to foodies—the South End's B&G Oysters and the North End's Neptune Oyster—and we love 'em both. This year Neptune can credit its edge over B&G to a slightly less formal vibe (shared tables, dishtowel napkins) that feels right for the times. That, and the fact that we spent the winter polishing off glorious scallops, ceviche, and cioppino here, and left happy every time.

A place needs more than good sangria and jamón to qualify as a genuine tapas joint: It must also be a lively gathering spot, not one that's empty by 11 p.m. Toro has one of the most reliably bustling late-night scenes in the city—impromptu dance parties have been known to break out around the bar—and a calendar peppered with fun events, like last spring's Calçotada (Spring Onion Festival) and an annual party to mark the running of the bulls. Just as important, chef Jamie Bissonnette strikes precisely the right balance between beloved Spanish recipes (griddled garlic shrimp, chickpeas with chorizo) and adventurous ones (head cheese with pickled ramps, crispy pork belly with snails). Need a hit of liquid courage before you'll try the smoked beef tongue? That's what the sangria's for.

And by the final page, Abe & Louie's and Grill 23 once again have emerged as the heroes of our tale. In terms of overall atmosphere, it's a draw (lively merriment versus relaxed elegance), but Abe & Louie's cuts are a touch more flavorful, the wine list a tad kinder to our bottom line, and the non-steak options—like the addictive crab cakes—a little nearer to perfection. After all, in a showdown this sizzling, victory is measured by degrees.

O Ya may have the most incomparable raw-fish dinner in town, but the reality of its special-occasion status is that we tend to reserve it for exactly that: a special occasion. Chef Ken Oringer's sashimi bar, Uni, on the other hand, presents haute touches with such nonchalance that we feel no guilt about stopping in on a Tuesday night for a cilantro-and-cumin-laced plate of tuna tataki with foie gras and strawberries, or for slivers of firm, fresh Japanese octopus in tangy soy, ginger, and hot oil. Which we do happily, and often.

Notwithstanding the beef tendon fire pot at Montien (still the hottest soup around, in both senses of the word), this unassuming Allston 12-seater is your first-class ticket to Bangkok.

Red wine with meat, white wine with fish—whoa, not so fast! Wine director Sandy Block has compiled 40 pages (because 41 would just be silly) of bottles selected in blind tastings for menu compatibility, resulting in the ideal muscadet for those oysters and the right sangiovese for that spicy cioppino. Some three dozen vintages are available by the glass, and there are five tasting flights (three priced under $10) that change from one visit to the next. The inventory at last year's ace, Troquet, is still worthy, but at the end of the day the options and value are at Legal.

Candice Glover, "Come Together": I'm so glad we saw Jimmy encourage Candice to treat the "complicated and esoteric" lyrics in the song's verses as negligible and focus on hitting the choruses, because as a viewer it's very off-putting to see that strain, especially with a song the singer doesn't know. Aware of this strategy, I felt like I didn't need to worry about all that gibberish either.
Not only did Candice pull off another showstopper (in the middle of the show no less) but she was by far the best "rocker" of the night. The Other Guitarist (not our fave Hot Guitar Player Brady Cohan) even wore sunglasses to clinch the rockin' vibe.
I particularly loved the surprising low note on "muddy water" and delightfully high "so hard to seeeeeeee!" Nicki wanted more crazy, in-the-moment faces from Candice but I disagreed; I think she mostly does stay in it with her "attitude face." Oh, and I'm loving Candice's dad. "My boss is excited to just even know me…I hope he don't see this!"
Paul Jolley, "Eleanor Rigby": Well, this is another of my favorite Beatles songs -- it's particularly haunting if you play it very softly while recapping live reality TV shows in a solemn cave of tragedy. Seriously, it's great. Unfortunately, despite the fog enhancement and four-part orchestra, Paul couldn't quite pull off the aura of minor-key desperation this song deserves. It didn't help that viewers were likely mentally comparing his performance to David Cook's masterful one from season 7.
That said, it was encouraging to see Paul's "perfectionism" and willingness to adapt to Jimmy's suggestions in the studio, and I did really like his vocal tonight. He seemed much less self-conscious than he has in the past. It's just not quite there though. The judges continued to squash Paul's pipe dream of being the male Taylor Swift (I just picture big, colorful words floating around in his mind…IMAGE, MONEY, FAME) and suggested he's more suited to pop or rock. Mariah took it even further: She sees Paul making "an uptempo dance record produced by some pop producers. Get on a hard-driving track and do something big." [Dramatic singsong on its way...] "You never know-ohhhhhhh." Eh, sometimes you do.
Angela Miller, "Yesterday": It struck me after Angie described herself as a "theater person" at her high school that what I dislike about her performances is that she's always play-acting. She's so precise on her long gazes into the camera, making sure her face oozes this emotion, then that one. It's like we can see the process of her masterminding -- "What would look perfect on TV right this second?" -- and then carrying that out as an actress. In trying so hard to act vulnerable, she comes across as anything but. With the new "edgy" hair (straight long layers, called it!) and soft purple spotlight, it felt Angie she was auditioning for a Broadway version of Jem and the Holograms: Disneyfied.
None of this is a knock on her vocals, which were admittedly great. And I do think Angie's whole acting shtick will be effective. I even think she'll probably win the season. But she's not quite natural enough for me right now. And the entire segment seemed like a setup for Randy to proudly compare Angie to Hayley from Paramore or Amy Lee from Evanescence.

Let me tell you all a little story about a dessert that changed my life. One which, and I'm not kidding about this, made Rob cry the first time we
devoured enjoyed it.
I've always been a fan of bread pudding. Rarely has it steered me wrong. But Rob? Not such a fan. He's a texture person. And to him, the idea of "bread" and "pudding" don't go together.
I understand this, from an intellectual point of view. Sorta.
But during our last trip to Walt Disney World, there was no way he wasn't trying it. See, we had the extreme good fortune of scoring a reservation at 'Ohana, at The Polynesian Resort. For those of you who don't know, it's a challenge to get in there unless you reserve, literally, 5 – 6 months in advance.
The most famous item on 'Ohana's hugely popular menu? The Bananas Foster Bread Pudding.
It is rightly famous. This bread pudding is unlike anything else I've ever tasted. Sweet but not too sweet. Lots of eggs = lots of richness. It's fairly simple, yet delicious. I used pineapple bread (another 'Ohana recipe) but you can use regular bread and add the pineapple and coconut.
Then there's the sauce.
The pudding's good but the secret's in the sauce. Oh boy is it ever.
Don't be afraid to make the sauce yourself. I had never made a caramel sauce prior to this but found that as long as I kept it to a low boil, I was okay. Don't boil it too hard or I imagine you'll quickly end up with a burned sauce. You want a nice thick coating on your spoon – and it'll thicken up more as it cools.
Be careful tasting it. It's very hot when it's cooking. Not that I know that from experience.
So you have a nice, warm hunk of bread pudding. You add some banana slices and a scoop of vanilla ice cream which immediately starts to melt and get all drippy.
But then? You slowly pour some rich, golden goodness over top. It melts the ice cream and invades every nook and cranny of the pudding. Together the individual components become a symphony. One which you'll want to last forever and ever.
But no good thing lasts forever, so you may want to eventually stop eating. As difficult as that may be.
*Note: The original recipe called for 1 cup – 1 CUP! – of rum. Let me tell you, I followed it to the letter the first time and oh my fire-breathing lord. I'm a big fan of rum but it was way too much. I found that a splash or two is just enough – though you can always add more!
Adapted from AllEars.net
5 eggs
3 cups whole milk
1/2 tsp salt
1/2 tsp nutmeg
2 cups sugar
1 cup crushed pineapple, drained
1 cup sweetened coconut
8 cups Challah or French bread (or Hawaiian pineapple bread*)
Preheat oven to 325 degrees F.
Combine all ingredients in a large bowl, making sure bread is thoroughly soaked in custard mixture. Spread into a greased 9×13 pan.
Bake in preheated oven for 50-60 minutes, until a knife inserted in the center comes out clean.
Serve warm, topped with vanilla ice cream and Bananas Foster sauce.
*If you use the pineapple bread, exclude the pineapple, coconut and 1/2 cup of sugar.
Bananas Foster Sauce
Adapted from AllEars.net
1 cup white sugar
1 cup light brown sugar
1/2 cup light corn syrup
1 stick (8 tablespoons) unsalted butter
1 tsp vanilla extract
1 cup heavy cream, divided
1-2 tbs spiced rum, or to taste
1 cup sliced bananas
Combine everything but 1/2 cup cream and rum in a medium saucepan. Melt together slowly over medium heat. Bring to a low boil and cook for a few minutes, then add remaining cream and rum. Continue to simmer until sauce is a warm caramel color and thickly coats the back of a spoon – around 8 to 10 minutes. You can turn the heat up and cook more quickly but the low heat will help to avoid burning the sugar if you're not used to working with caramel.
Remove sauce from heat and add banana slices. Allow to cool for a few minutes before serving.
If you have a minute…over a week ago I shared a piece called "I Need to Believe", which focused on how even though as I've grown up and have had to let go of certain childish beliefs (especially as they pertain to my parents), I still need to believe that my Dad is going to get better and leave the hospital soon. That piece is a finalist in the Writer's Week contest. Voting is open til 9/30/2011, 11:59 EDT – if you could spare a vote for me here, I'd be forever grateful!

Dear Jen,
Thank you for blessing me with this recipe today. I owe you my first born child.
That bananas foster sauce sounds to die for! So delicious.
OMGee! This looks and sounds delish. It is definitely a recipe that I will try. I will wait until I have guests of course, otherwise I'd be in a diabetic coma. Thanks so much for sharing!
OH MY. I have ripe bananas. But no Challah bread. Or pineapple. Time for a trip to the store??
I'm starving and THIS is the post I decide to read?? I hate you.
Seriously, that looks amazing! And 'Ohana? Awesomesauce.
What a GREAT recipe. Would you come over to CAST PARTY WEDNESDAY and share this with us tomorrow?
I hope to see you there!
This looks fabulous! I will definitely be making this. I linked to you from Tuesdays Tasty Tidbits. Thanks!
My husband will probably marry me all over again if I made this!
Hi! I just came across your blog…I love it! Great photography!! I can't wait to try this recipe! I am a newbie to blogging and your latest follower. I hope you will follow back! Many blessings to you!
I didn't think "too much rum" was a possibility! Just saw your link on Crazy Sweet Tuesdays and had to come check out this recipe. Bananas Foster and bread pudding?! Sounds heavenly!
Wow-yum! My husband's not a big bread pudding fan either, but I am. I will be making this.
OMG I love bread pudding!! I must try this!! It looks amazing!!
Oh,my. The photos of my bread pudding made my mouth water.
Hi Jen! I'm literally drooling…looking a little too much like my choclate lab when she wants a treat! Thanks you so much for dropping by and for sharing your OVER-the-TOP, yummy recipe!
I kind of wish I hadn't read this because now I won't be able to stop thinking about it until I try it. It looks DELICIOUS!
Yum! This looks great! Thanks so much for linking up to Tuesday Talent Show! I would love to have you stop by and link up again tomorrow with more great projects!
Oh my…. I LOVE bread pudding and do not understand why everyone in my house doesn't like it!
I may try this one just anyway. I think they'd like it if they gave it try!
Hi this is Nicole from Colie's Kitchen I just discovered your blog and wanted to drop by and say hi. I am now a new follower. I would love to have you stop by Colie's Kitchen if you get a chance. http://www.colieskitchen.com

Once upon a time in a land far away, a master woodcarver decided to move to a new village deep in a forest. He was convinced that in the forest he could find a good supply of the high-quality wood he needed. So he loaded his young family, all of his belongings and his tools into a cart pulled by his faithful donkey and set out for the village.
Along the way, the wood carver met another man and his family who were moving to the new village in pursuit of a living. He was a tinsmith. Like the woodcarver, he wanted to go into the forest to find the ore he could smelt to produce high-quality pots and pans. So, together the two families made their way to the village in the forest full of anticipation at a bright future.

Amika Perk Up Dry Shampoo 1 oz
Based on 1 Review
VickyNJHairNormal HairVery ConvenientI have been looking for dry shampoo for a while and this product seemed very good. The ingredients are healthy and the fragrance is beautiful. I really like when products smell great, and this one does. I think that's what people want from a dry shampoo. I don't have oily hair, so I can't tell you if it makes hair look clean, but it does make it smell perfumed. I haven't used it for very long, but I love how it could save me time in the morning if I don't have time to wash and style my hair. And I won't need perfume that day.

Vacation rentals in France (farms, cottages, gites, apartments)

06 ARR: Le Relais de l'Entrecôte20, rue Saint-Benoît, Paris , Phone: 01 45 49 16 00
Reviewed by: Doug Phillips from Canada, review #3829
When: 2011
Our new favourite Paris restaurant.
Directions: Just behind Les Deux Magots
Recommended by Pascal Bourdier, the owner of our rental apartment, three of us visited this restaurant on our last night in Paris in October 2011. If we had gone earlier in the week, we would have gone more than once.
The restaurant is quite different from most in the city. It does not take reservations. It opens at 7:00pm. We arrived shortly after 6:30pm and waited in line. The servers only ask one question when arriving at your table - How do you like your steak done? The menu is simplicity itself - salad, rib steak and fries for a fixed price - 24.60 euros, when we were there. The only options are wine and dessert. The steak is excellent. Service is efficient and friendly. L'addition for the three of us, including a bottle of wine and desserts was 110.
Le Relais de l'Entrecôte is a small chain of restaurants. There are two other locations in Paris and one in Geneva. It is a winning formula. We'll be sure to return.

If you're divorced and have moved on to a new, meaningful relationship, the prospect of moving in together can stir up a lot of fear related to your past marriage and its demise. Anyone who has gone through a divorce will tell you that it takes some time to get over it and move on (understatement of the year.) If you didn't leave in order to be with someone else, then you have to begin dating, and then you hopefully find a new, special person with whom you want to give love another chance. That sounds pretty healthy and like it's going in the right direction right? Then why do you hit a wall of fear when it's time to take the new relationship to the next, deeper level, such as moving in together? Suddenly what seemed like a wonderful idea – spending more time with the person you love, sharing your life, and even building a new life together – has become terrifying. Doubts now creep up everywhere, whereas before you decided to move in there were none. You start to wonder if you really love this person. Does he or she really love you? Are your spending habits compatible? Are your food habits too different? What if you run out of things to talk about? You may begin to act out in small ways that somehow delay moving in or you may get tense about things that should be fun, such as picking out furniture together. But why? A week ago, before you decided to move in together, everything was fine and you were thinking that this person was the one you wanted to have in your life for a long time. "What's really going on here?" you wonder in confusion and frustration. Well a lot of fears related to your past marriage and resulting divorce have popped up because moving in together is the first step toward something more serious. More serious as in may result in marriage again. And, marriage again could result in divorce again. Some of your fears may sound like this: "Will I be able to handle it this time? What if I screw up again? Have I actually changed, or am I the same person who couldn't make marriage work before? My marriage failed, what makes me think this relationship won't?" (BTW, "failure" is not how I see divorce, but I've heard enough people use that word to describe their divorce to think that you may see it that way too.)
Well there is no guarantee that this relationship will work out better. But the best chance you can give yourself and your new partner is to understand what happened in the old relationship. That past relationship was created by two people and there's no getting around that reality by thinking that your ex was the only one who made mistakes. Frankly, most divorced people are able to see the truth in this. But the effort you've made to understand how you contributed to the end of your marriage will only help your new relationship. How? Well this new relationship will push your buttons just like the old one did. Why? Because they are your buttons and any partner will unknowingly, and hopefully unintentionally, push them from time to time. But if you know yourself enough and understand where and how you could have handled things differently, then you can feel more confident about not repeating the same mistakes. That's where therapy comes in. Therapy isn't about beating yourself up for past mistakes, but about understanding why you behaved in the way that you did, gaining some compassion for yourself, and learning how you can handle things differently. So when it is time to move on to a new meaningful relationship, you may still have fears about your past marriage pop up, but you are able to honestly look at yourself and say that you now know better. You can comfort and quiet your fears with some compassion and self-forgiveness that say, "I did the best that I knew how at the time, but now I know better." As the saying goes, "When you know better you do better." Will you go on to make some new mistakes in your new relationship? Sure. But they'll be different because you're now different. You've learned, and that knowledge alone can calm those "moving in" fears when they come up, allowing you to more confidently enter a new, important stage in your life.
Did you experience this kind of fear when you moved on to a new relationship?

Arrggghh! I've always disliked those blocks. Never felt good in my hands and just looked so drab.
Shot my first glock, G17, two weekends ago at the range. I asked to shoot somebody's just out of curiosity, having never shot one before (I know shame on me). So I only shot it about 4-5 times, but I had to admit it was quite nice. I didn't think to ask if it was stock or not so I thought maybe it was some trigger work that made it nice. Although I noticed the grip of the gun doesn't feel that great just holding the gun, but once the gun is firing things sure do feel right with the grip.
So I told one of my buddies who only has glocks, he didn't gloat too bad. He did let me take two of his glocks to the range yesterday to get a little more qaulity time with them. Both were stock, a G17 and a G35 or 34 whichever is .40. So ya, those darn things are pretty good shooters. I shot both REALLY WELL, my shots were quite accurate. The trigger is so crisp and seems to have just the right weight. Again the grip does so well when the gun is in action, my follow up shots were better than expected as well. Also both guns were bought used by him, and he's NEVER cleaned them, I wouldn't have totally believed him until I opened the slide and looked in. Ya, looks like he's not kidding. Plus the slide creaks when racked, but both performed flawless, that wasn't a suprise at all though.
So I had to shoot my M&P a few times to compare the triggers, well it is close but not the same. So I think I may have been officially converted to the dark side. I just can't help it, almost feel dissapointed in myself, lol. Not really, but if I just shoot them better I'll have to have one. I think if I get one, I'm going G19. Yep, back to 9mm and more of a slightly bigger gun. Just gotta shoot one first. I could kick myself for not shooting one of these way earlier, oh well - live and learn.

It has nothing to do with power, but merely how cultural and social frameworks operate. The Western media fixate extensively on events that happen in the West because there is an underlying sense of duty for the media to report on these issues. What bothers me is how the media tend to neglect many important international sociopolitical issues that would nonetheless warrant ideal coverage had it happened in the West. The integrity of journalism is falling at a rapid rate because they tend to only cover first-world issues (with some exceptions, of course). This mentality, therefore, creates a blockade, where other information isn't delivered to the public because the mainstream media neglects to address them. As a result, a great portion of the population become oblivious.
Thank God we've got the internet and newspapers - platforms that showcases independent and investigative journalism. Without it, my knowledge of world events would be strictly Western.
Again, this is not fault of Western media only but also media from the Middle East and Eastern Asia. Mainstream media in the West have a great deal of Islamophobia in their reports. Likewise, Middle Eastern and some Asian media has a great deal of anti-West, anti-American, anti-Imperialism tones in their reports, particularly in North Korea, where the state-owned media degrade America and its allies at every opportunity possible.
Back on point, the only reason why certain people think our lives are more important in the first-world is because of the media's shocking ability to create that distortion. When, in reality, the importance of one life over another is immeasurable and impracticable, because perspectives constantly change, most likely depending on your location, your culture and your social obligations (i.e., cultural and social frameworks - what I mentioned earlier).

Rachel Zeffira
Cat's Eyes are an alternative pop duo formed in early 2011, by the vocalist Faris Badwan (known for his work with English Indie rock band The Horrors), and the Italian-Canadian soprano, composer and multi-instrumentalist Rachel Zeffira.[1]
The band were formed after Badwan introduced Zeffira to 1960s girl group music. Zeffira became intrigued by the likes of The Ronettes and acts produced by Joe Meek and Phil Spector, and soon began work on a demo version of a track (which eventually became "The Lull") in a similar style, which on completion she sent to Badwan.
Using Zeffira's classical music contacts the band were able to perform a short performance using a church organ and choir at the Vatican, in front of several important cardinals. Following much positive press on the performance they offered free downloads of two songs via their website. One a cover/remix of Grinderman's "When My Baby Comes" and the other an original composition - "Not a Friend".
On 28 February 2011, the duo released an EP entitled Broken Glass on the Polydor label. It was recorded at Peter Gabriel's RealWorld Studios with record producer Steve Osborne. The Broken Glass EP featured three original compositions, and a cover of a previously unreleased demo song by The Horrors - "Sunshine Girls". It met with positive press and was followed by the release of Cat's Eyes, a full length album, in April 2011.
Also recorded at RealWorld Studios, Cat's Eyes received much positive press.[who?] Badwan has dismissed rumours that the success of Cat's Eyes signals he will depart with The Horrors.[citation needed]

Is it OK to use another person's medication if I have the same health condition?
It can't be emphasized too strongly: Do not take prescription medication that was not
specifically prescribed for you - even if you have the same health condition. Their
medication was prescribed for them based on their health history (including his or her age,
weight, other medications and other health conditions they may have) and their specific
diagnosis. The same health condition can have varying types of treatment. You may not need the
same type as they do.
Taking prescription medications that are not prescribed for you is illegal, and what is worse is that doing so can result in very serious complications as a result of incorrect dosage, interactions with other medications you may be taking, or an allergy to one of the medication's ingredients.
Ask your pharmacist about using an appropriate over-the-counter medication to treat your condition until you can consult your doctor about prescription therapy.
If you're looking for more specific answers to specific questions, ask a Walgreens pharmacist here.
Answers to questions regarding information about medications or health conditions are not for diagnostic or treatment purposes and are not conclusive as to the presence or absence of any health condition.

EFnet - Eris Free Network
<@netmunky> I can't help it, I'm a genius.
irc.shoutcast.com delinks as the company Shoutcast was sold from AOL some months back. The server linked during summer 2006 and was administrated by deppy the whole period.
Posted on behalf of Silence, EFnet admin:
Dear users,
EFnet has always been a network that promotes freedom of speech. One of the core pillars of a free virtual society is trust. Trust not only amongst ourselves internally, but an undying trust in the companies that allow their users to connect to our wonderful network. We have survived over two decades, in a world that is increasingly image- and video-based. IRC can offer neither of those. IRC is based on ideas. Ideas that are exchanged in text. With text, as opposed to images and videos, one has to be put extra effort into the subliminal, the meaning, the message. This has been our catcher in the rye, and we intend to protect this content-based communication form, for as long as it is appreciated by the hundreds of thousands who every day turn to IRC for philosophical debates, dating and just about anything you can think of (I'm sure a lot of the things in that last category does not belong here in this text, but you get the picture!).
We rely solely at the goodwill of others, as is the case with most things worth saving. There is no money to be made. We all do this for free. Sure, some companies might have benefited from a small level of advertisement, attracting customers to their products. But all in all, it has mostly been an uphill battle against enormous attacks, sometimes exceeding 75Gbps of DDoS. This has made it impossible for all but the largest organizations to host a server on our network, or any other large virtual society. We are Don Quijote and the weather mills are often winning.
One of our key strategies is to preserve a close relationship with the major Internet- and Hosting Service Providers, as those are the networks that our users connect through. This has worked very well due to our personal involvement with a lot of said organizations. If we find an abuser on IRC, we try to not only ban him or her, but also to contact the provider so that the problem is handled at the right end, often with the involvement of law enforcement, as was the case with Kevin Mitnick, t0rn and a lot of other well publicized hackers/crackers.
Unfortunately, the past few days many EFnet servers (and more are following) have had to ban an entire ISP, which has not happened in over a decade, if not longer. Naturally, something extreme must happen for this to be even considered. Almost always can we find a solution through the use of good old fashioned communication. Alas, not in this case. Well, here is the story (to the best of my knowledge):
One of our EFnet operators located a server that a client was using, the server was most likely hacked and/or used for illegal activities. As IRC is often a playground for these people to use, before moving on to more serious targets (where they can make money through extortion), we take this extremely seriously. Because of the serious nature of this, our operator sent an email to Hetzner.de, a German hosting provider, to help them lower the abuse of their servers, as well as ours. This is usually a fruitful symbiotic relationships, where both parties stand to gain.
However, the big difference between this case and all the other thousands of cases we have handled in the past, is that someone at Hetzner chose to forward this complaint to the actual abuser him/herself. This might seem fair enough, as anyone accused should be granted the right to defend him- or herself. However, the email also contained sensitive information about who this operator was, including nicknames (from which names can be derived, and thus, also, home addresses). We know what an impact this can have on your social, not to mention your professional life. We have seen people lose their jobs, after constant attacks and we have also seen companies lose money that is hard to fathom, considering this is still just a simple chat for friends. This is a fundamental breach of that mutual trust that has allowed us to accept clients from Hetzner to use our network - free of charge, just like we do with anyone else wanting to connect.
This a give and take network, where mutual trust is vital for our survival. We are maintained by the community, and we exist solely for the community. Hetzner.de has broken one of the most fundamental aspects of any report of criminal activity or suspicion thereof; source protection.
I expect us to get attacked now, which will result in a lot of work for the company kind enough to donate money and time to continue to provide us with servers, in an era where almost everything else would be more profitable. But this is an ideological problem, more than a financial one. We have been attacked before, and we will again. We are prepared. But these preparations rely on the fact that we know who the enemy is. Hetzner.de has made that impossible.
As a result of this, we have decided to ban all Hetzner IP ranges (both IPv4 and IPv6) from our servers. It seems other networks are following, and I know QuakeNet has published a similar statement. We simply do not want anything to do with a company that values money over source protection and integrity. Some may argue that this was a one time mistake, and that we should not jump to conclusions so fast. Could this have been a mistake? Sure. Does it matter, given the consequences this could have had for this operator's personal life and health? No. We do not appreciate cowards that would rather see someone else hurt, than take their responsibility.
Unfortunately, according to trusted sources (ex-employees) of Hetzner.de, this is policy and not an exception. They have realized they can save money (by limiting attacks) by redirecting the attacks back at the person reporting them. That way, the hacker/cracker/kiddie using their services will not cancel their contract with Hetzner, and in return Hetzner will remain protected. Left are those of us that work for free, and who will continue to do so, for as long as there are honest, reliable companies out there, willing to go the extra mile to protect the freedom of the Internet, and, above all, freedom of press and source protection.
Questions on this matter must be directed to Hetzner.de, as our involvement in this situation is over. This has been their decision based on questionable methods. It is unfortunate for them that they got caught, but it is good for the sake of the free Internet.
Sincerely yours,
Johan Boger, on behalf of EFnet and anyone else believing in integrity, source protection and a free Internet.
After 10 years in service the sponsor of irc.wh.verio.net have decided to pull it`s support. The server linked 4. March 2002 and have been administrated by Andrew "next" Prins the entire time. Thanks to Verio, next and the staff for the 10 years hosting and running the server on EFnet
On May 21st irc.efnet.nl will delink permanently. The server history started out as efnet.vuurwek.nl and was in January 2001 moved to BIT and renamed irc.efnet.nl, the company currently hosting the server. Thank you to all the staff that has kept this server alive for so long and thanks to the BIT engineering staff who im sure have had a few awake nights due to the attacks an EFnet server attracts over those 11 years.
The staff of efnet.bredband2.se have relocated the server to Portlane AB in Stockholm, Sweden. This means that the new name is efnet.portlane.se, however the dns efnet.bredband2.se will be pointed toward the server for a while. Welcome back.

Recycling for Birmingham City Students
Hi, Birmingham City Students\' Union recently passed a policy to lobby for further recycling facilities on our residential and academic campuses. The exec team have outlined two main groups that we need to have on board to make this happen; the University and the local government. The University needs to pay to have waste disposed of on academic campuses, but the City Council is responsible for residential campuses, as it is for the citizens. Birmingham City Students\' Unon would like you to aknowledge that by committing to this petition, the Students\' Union will send this with a formal letter to lobby these particular groups so that our students havce the right to recycle. In terms of the University academic campus I would also like you to note that some waste is currently recycled, yet we believe that more specific bins should be put around campus to maximise output, in and out side of buildings, and not just to be paper orientated. Kind Regards from the Union!
