"I have had a hard time finding a cut out sugar cookie recipe that I didn't mess up. I finally found one with this recipe. This is definitely going in my recipe box. Thanks!"
"Very good and easy to make. It tastes great right out of the oven with a scoop of ice cream on the top."
"We made this for a neighborhood Christmas party and everyone liked it. One neighbor said it was too good:). I did put in a little more cranberry juice so it wasn't quite as strong. We will be making this again at our New Years party."
"These were good. We used oregano and I didn't like that flavor, my husband and boys did though. I think next time I will add a little salt instead. Thanks for sharing."
"Very good cookie. I had a lot of the glaze left over. The glaze was good but I think next time I will cut it in half. Thanks for sharing!"
"This was the first time I've ever made biscuits that didn't come from a can and they were great. Very easy to make. I didn't have a biscuit cutter so I just rounded them. They weren't pretty looking but they were very good. Thanks for sharing!"
"I'm usually lazy and just use the box pancake mix but I had some buttermilk I needed to use and tried these. These weren't any more difficult than the mix and much better!!! I mixed the ingredients the night before like someone else mentioned. We added mini chocolate chips and my boys loved them. They said to give it 5 stars and I agree."
"This was absolutely delicious!! We will be making this a lot!"
"Very good sauce and we even used low fat cream cheese."
"The topping was good but the bottom of the cake didn't have much taste or flavor. We ended up eating just the top half."

"Levels of narcissism are increasing among college students," says Professor Jeffrey Pfeffer at Stanford's business school. Worse, "business school students are more narcissistic than others." But, surprisingly, he adds that may not be so bad. (See Businessweek, "Does It Matter If B-Schools Produce Narcissists?")
He refers to a study published two years ago in the very same magazine that makes it clear narcissism is a serious disorder: "As students, narcissists exploit others, are arrogant and haughty, and unable to empathize with others. They are poor team players, at a time when employers are demanding enhanced team skills. Narcissists blame others for failures, take undeserved credit for success, are hypersensitive to negative feedback, and show an exaggerated sense of entitlement." (See "The Rising Tide of Narcissism: What B-Schools Can Do.")
To counter this damning list of negatives, the Stanford professor notes, "narcissistic leaders remained in their positions longer and earned more, particularly compared with other executives in their companies. . . . Narcissists tend to be more willing to ask for and expect help, and this behavior will help make them more successful." Moreover, having "higher expectations for one's salary almost certainly will help produce higher incomes."

I have a problem with my management skills
- 0I am such an avoider of confrontation. I would rather stick a needle in my eye than write someone up, but I have a problem with delegating. I hate to do it, but when I must, I do. I was charge of a unit today, with two LPNs and seven aids, one went home because our census had dropped a little and she asked to go after am care. I was very busy all day with coumadin orders, Pshychiatrist came in, IV's beeping all day, problem solving with lpns, ADON, new DON and administrator. Had a 20 min lunch, no breaks. Toileted a few in the am, rounded and put the glasses on residents eating breakfast (I have repeatedly asked them to do this), turned on heaters, got sweaters for residents, etc.
When I came back from lunch had chronic faller ask to go to BR, another resident trying to get out of W/C with IV, stated had to go to the BR and I ask the first aid I see to attend to her. About ten minutes later, while walking by and attending to my work ,I double checked to see if she took her because I was concerned she would try to get up again and geez; she had to go. The CNA's were just starting to make rounds,a nd heaven forbid they go out of order. I then asked another CNA , "who is on the floor", as opposed to potty line. She said "We know, you already told us three times Mrs X has to go to the BR." She was very smart and rude. I was going to ask if someone could toilet Mr. W who is the fall risk. I told her that I was speaking of another resident who I was afraid would fall and she stated rudely that "nurses could take residents to the BR too."
I am so tired of being talked to this way and it was the 3rd or 4th time she has talked to me this way, dripping with tone and attitude. I wrote her up and she refused to sign it. This is the only the 2nd time I have written someone up; the first time was on another unit for verbal abuse to a resident, and not permitting the resident out of bed and discussing the resident behavior to another resident.
Any way, this CNA works doubles, is very young and is good with the resident. But she seems to hold a grudge toward me as when I ask her why a certain resident is not getting out of bed that day-actually she blows a gasket. I work part time and do not have day to day knowledge of residents and any change that may have taken place days before and get skipped in report. One other time I was ready to begin report to the next shift when a family member told me his father needed changed. I was standing near the resident and boy did he need changed-there was no way he did this recently- so I did a look up and down the hall and couldn't see the CNA and I paged her, something I rarely do. She screamed from the BR- "I know Mr. A needs changed- I'll get to it" It was emabarassing in front of the family members that were near the BR. I did not write her up. But today I could no longer ignore her lack of respect and I gave her a written warning as per ADON. But the CNA tried to turn it around on me- once again pulling the nurses should take them- on and on. Let me say I think I am more hands on than the other charges and I try to help the aids out as much as I can until my work backs up. I stayed an hour over as it was, and I rarely take breaks, etc.
I need assertiveness training and delegation skills. It seems if I try to communicate or follow up on a residents needs they flip like I'm not permitted to communicate. The same CNA was informed that a resident in her section had died and while she was heading for the room, I stated "Cindy, her family is with her. would you ask them if they would like you to come back?" and once again her retort was an attitudal "I know how to do this!". I feel that I am asking a decent question, but I get flipped on.
Sorry for the long post- please help.
But let me say one thing, toileting is my big peeve, although I very rarely ask them to do it, sometimes I just don't think they
realize the importance of the dignity issue and the ramifications of prioritizing, the safety issues, etc. I have heard the "go in your brief" statement by another CNA who backtalks me too.
Please advise!
- 0Nov 18, '02 by TweetyI know exactly how you feel. I don't have much advice. I was like that when I started doing charge about nine years ago. It got so bad, I was working like a fiend, staying late, while everyone else was relaxed and leaving me behingdwhen it was time to clock out.
I recommend nipping it in the bud right now. Bottom line is you are concerned about the patients safety, and not there to make friends.
Is there someone above, as in manager/DON that can support you here. Perhaps you can have a meeting with the one's causing the problems. Let them know in no uncertain terms that you are in charge, and you expect to be listened to.
I hate when I have to throw my weight around like that. Why can't people just do their job, and work together. I can't stand when people go so regimented in what they have to do that they get all huffy when the charge nurse asks them to do something.
But nip it in the bud right now. I got in the habit of "doing it myself" rather than fuss with the staff.
The other night a CNA had eight patients, I asked him to set up some traction on our sister unit next door. He said "you aren't doing anything, you need to chart my vital signs while I set up the traction". I immediately snapped "you don't know what I'm doing, and you ARE setting up the traction and you ARE charting your own vital signs. No negotation!"
Hopefully sooner or later you can develop a positive relationship with the staff. Good luck.
- 0Nov 18, '02 by BadBirdYou are right not to tolerate that type of attitude, the patients must come first and if you tell her to bring a patient to the BR then she needs to do it right then, I would counsel her and let her know that next time she disobeys a order she will be fired. Do not apologize or make any excuses, you are in charge and what you say goes, you do not have to explain your rationale to her. If she doesn't like your decision then let her quit, you will be better off without her, after that I would have a staff meeting and inform all aides that they are to do their jobs that are asked of them by the charge nurse or floor nurse, they are there to assist and if they do not want to do that job then suggest they look elsewhere. Once all employees know the rules they will either follow or leave, if you are fair and consistent then hopefully all will work out and those slackers that don't will be gone.
- 0Nov 18, '02 by B.WilhelmI agree with 3rdShiftGuy and BadBird. It's obvious that the "younger" employees are there to get paid for doing as little as possible. The bad thing is, they get by with it!! We all worked hard to get through school so we can provide the best quality of care possible, and for the most part we do a GREAT job. We are in this field because we care. Don't ever appologize for wanting what is best for your patients! They are the reasons we're here. It has been my experience that issues should be dealt with immediately. Tell one of the other CNAs to take care of the deceased resident and inform the "know it all" where she stands in the grand scheme of things. It's obvious the things you have tried have yet to work. In my opinion, little miss CNA needs to be put in her place or put out the door.
- 0OMG, thanks guys. BTW, I found this CNA sitting in a resident's room this am eating a bowl of cereal from someones tray, and talking to a CNA who was "feeding" a resident, except the resident wasn't eating. I don't think the full time charge rounds like I do, and the CNA's resent me for doing it. They can skate through breakfast if no one rounds. I didn't say a word about the cereal- I thought- she is working a double, she can sit and no one was going to eat it anyway. Thats what I get for my kindness! I guess they instintively found my achille's heel and take advantage of it. I also feel that the "feeders" in their rooms don't get fed enough, they are hurried and the tray is taken away.
I feel their behavior has been unchecked by the outgoing DON and administrator for so long that they are unable to adjust to someone who values resident's rights and dignity and safety issues. The administrator just cares about census and resident care has gone by the wayside unless the state comes in.
Again, thanks for being here allnurses sibs,
- 0Nov 18, '02 by GardengalYou say:
"Any way, this CNA works doubles, is very young and is good with the resident. But she seems to hold a grudge toward me as when I ask her why a certain resident is not getting out of bed that day-actually she blows a gasket." I'm curious what you mean by 'is good with the residents' when what you describe is certainly not good.
I would respond to your question in different ways depending on what this means. please clarify.
I have found that if you start a conversation with someone who isn't doing what you want, with mentioning something that you like first it works better. For instance, that you appreciate that she works extra to help out, because we always need the help, but that you're concerned that when she does so many hours she might not know how she is coming across to residents and famiies. That you know she doesn't intend to speak in that manner, because you know that we have the resident's best interests in mind, but that maybe it is her fatigue which makes her come across as less than caring.
It sounds like you have had several encounters with this individual and need to speak with her to nip it in the bud before she reacts in a negative fashion again. I would suggest before she does something else, and not in reaction to the next altercation. Try to think of the good things that she does for residents and highlight them. And compare that good behavior with the bad. Explain that you don't understand why sometimes she seems great and others just miserable. I have found that a conversation started in that manner usually allows the other person to open up and express their frustrations as opposed to being hostile. Once you can discuss the situation, as opposed o arguing it you will find it easier to come up with solutions.
- 0Nov 18, '02 by MRed94In the facility that I work in, eating off a tray is grounds for INSTANT dismissal, no matter WHO it is.
I think you should definitely go to a higher up and let them know that either she gets the word or you are sending her home.
No negotiations. You don't need that stress on top of all the rest you have.

- 0Nov 18, '02 by LoisJeanOMG, Carrie--
I'm with MRed94 all the way on this one. No way would that type of attitude and behavior been tolerated by me or any other supervisor/ charge nurse--in my day we didn't need to call up a DON for problems like you describe- the offender would have been written up and sent home and we would have made do with who we had left. If I had been in your spot, the DON would have been called up right away and it would have been: 'either that girl goes now or I do. You choose.'
Her 'mouth' would have been grounds for discipline/dismissal regards the the deceased patient's family ; and for certain, she would have been fired on the spot for eating off of a patient's tray.
I am so sorry that this has happened to you, but you know what? You are going to be the better for it. Bless your heart.

We spent a great holiday at Piril. It was our first time in Cesme and a friend suggested us to stay at this hotel. It was not the high season, so the hotel and the center was quiet, but we found it peacefull. we were there to relax, so we enjoyed our stay. The location of the hotel is good and very convenient, it takes 10 min. walking to the marina and the center. The cleaning of the rooms and the general areas are good. Ohh, the food was delicious and very various. some said that the food was bad ... and everyday was the same but dont believe it. we really enjoyed the food there. SPA is the best. The thermal water is great and we will definitely going back again. Maybe in summer this time) read hotel review

After installing AutoCAD 2013, along with Inventor Fusion and Design Review, I cannot load the software. The first time I installed it, it was able to run, with the screen opening, indicating if I wanted to try it or activate it, along with an error report message, which I send the report or close. After restarting, I now only get the error report message. As for Inventor Fusion and Design Review, as it is about to begin loading, it crashes. I uninstalled the program after a few trial and error sessions and the problem still remains. I have downloaded the software for my operating system.
Do I have to remove registry information to start the installation from scratch? If so, can anyone direct me to the exact location in the registry, as I do not want to delete vital data.
I know that report details from the error report form will give you more information as to what may be causing the issue, but if anyone can assist me without it, through their own experience or expertise, please do so, as I would rather not attempt to install it again.

Hello Community,
I'm looking to get a new board for the summer waves in OCNJ (on the south side) and was wondering if I should choose a specific shaper. I'm looking into Wynn, Heritage, and maybe just getting an off-the-rack Bing Dharma or something like that. I'm 5'4\", 100ish pounds, and I have a 5'10\" Tuflite Flyer (if you needed to know that). I'm open to ANY suggestions on shaper or dims or even the right board!
'ppreciate the help

I'd like to be rich and good looking too but I'm doing alright being poor and ugly.
In all fairness, the segment wasn't trying to advocate the shooting of BGs @ 250 yds but merely to illustrate the power of the 10mm. Irrespective of Vickers being a good shot or not or how many times he must've tried shooting long yardage shots with a handgun, the 10mm did hit a man sized target @ 250 yds and if it will do this, then I think we can trust it with that much more confidence within the parameters that most of us will be shooting it. The more I learn about this cartridge, the more respect I have for it. Regardless of its effectiveness, it is an expensive round and many advocate re-loading and this is also something I'd like to do if I ever get my backyard building/shop.
After seeing this video segment, the 10mm (IMO) is one of the best "go to war" or SHTF guns available and most likely would be my choice in such scenarios.

Samsung's YP-K3 is an incredibly slim and stylish MP3 player, with a touch-sensitive interface and a seamless design. Although not bursting with features, the K3 rivals the iPod nano with its ease of use, attractive design and solid performance.
This 4GB MP3 player is available for an affordable £99, however those with smaller music collections can opt for the 2GB version, which is just £79.
The K3 is lightweight, super slim and a devilishly attractive piece of kit to boot. Complimented by a sophisticated silver border, the metallic black finish and seamless design of this player just oozes class.
One thing that separates the K3 from most competitors is its complete lack of buttons. Samsung has opted for a touch-sensitive interface that's invisible until touched, magically lighting up the controls. It looks seriously cool, but there's no tactile feedback given from the buttons, meaning you can't feel that a button has been pressed.

How best to help the workers? Do the trade unions help anymore? This was one of the topics on ITV's Agenda last night, and I was one of the panelists along with Jacqueline Gold, chief executive of Ann Summers and Diane Abbott. As you might expect, Dianne went on about how unions are the best hope for the workers and that the minimum wage ought to rise. Jacqueline said she has hardly any dealing with unions, but what would help the (many) woman she employs is being able to deduct the cost of childcare from the tax bill.
It's a great idea. In Britain, we run an appalling system where we basically decide to go without the talents of hundreds of thousands of well-educated, energetic women because we run an economy where the money they make only barely covers the childcare costs. A recent OECD report explained this in terms: yes, Britain is doing better at educating women. But what's the point, if you run an economic model that later forces them out of the workplace?
Many contemporaries of mine have found themselves stuck: they never intended to be a stay-at-home mum, they landed great degrees and even better jobs. They wanted to advance their career, and were outpacing the men they were up against. But they then found themselves working to no economic purpose. Why do it? For many women, the extortionate childcare costs in Britain rob work of its economic function. And how many of us would do our jobs for free?
Making childcare tax-deductible would, in a great many cases, be a game-changer. It would cost George Osborne a lot of money, but he'd have to set this against what he'd gain by having so many high-skilled British women back in work. HM Treasury is sadly unable to conduct such calculations – it can only grasp costs and taxes, to struggles with forecasting the positive effect of tax cuts. So this sensible and badly-needed policy is unlikely to happen.
PS: As for Abbott's a minimum wage rise – I'd like to know how many of those advocating a £7/hour rate (the Chancellor included) have any idea how much of this 'rise' would be left over for workers once tax credits and other welfare has been reduced. The answer is about a third, if they're lucky. It's a good test: anyone who advocates raising the minimum wage without factoring in how much support they'd lose is not really serious about helping people in low pay.Tags: Ann Summers, The Agenda, Trade Unions, UK politics

Whitby church under threat from landslips
The church, brained by Henry,
crazy, incontinent cliffhanger,
stares catatonic out to sea,
while its footing, undermined,
falls away, clean bones and all,
into Fortune's Kippers.
Crestfallen and bitter, our vicar
transplants the dearly departed
and prays to God, perhaps,
then calls a civil engineer.

2001: Historic Cambridge Kitchen Donated to Smithsonian
For a person who once said, "I was 32 when I started cooking, up until then, I just ate," it's remarkable that her kitchen wound up at the Smithsonian National Museum of American History. In 2001, Julia Child left her home in Cambridge, Massachusetts, and donated the kitchen designed 40 years prior by her husband Paul. The kitchen was her studio serving not only as a place to prepare the night's meals, but also where she researched and developed recipes and shot her public television series.

Munyai loses WBA title boutComment on this story
London – Britain's Scott Quigg retained his World Boxing Association (WBA) super-bantamweight title with a second-round stoppage of South Africa's Tshifiwa Munyai in Manchester on Saturday.
Fighting in front of what was effect a 'home town' crowd, the 25-year-old from nearby Bury dropped Munyai to the canvas in the first round and in the second referee Howard Foster stopped the contest when the challenger was again knocked to the floor.
Victory saw Quigg, who extended his unbeaten professional record to 30 fights, closer to a domestic showdown with another undefeated boxer in Belfast's Carl Frampton.
"I wanted to make a statement," Quigg told Sky Sports after making short work of Munyai.
"I said I wanted to show the best of Scott Quigg and that's what I had to do and no-one's ever done that to Munyai.
"I've gone in there and demolished him. It was a calculated start Ä but we nailed it down beforehand and did what we had to." – Sapa-AFP

Bikers build strength, awareness and homes
Monday, June 16, 2014
NEW CASTLE – Arriving from the Holy Trinity Lutheran Church in Newington, 34 bikers dipped their rear tires in the Atlantic Ocean at the Great Island Common beach, completing the beginning ritual of the 10-week journey across the country.
This is Lester's second Bike and Build trip, but first time as a group leader. His job is to ensure that the bikers travel in small groups together safely, while carrying any spare parts they might need.
Maxx Marano, 19, from Chicago, is riding for Bike and Build for the first time. She's been seriously biking for about 2 years now, she said, but has been working with affordable housing organizations for about three years. When she caught wind of Bike and Build, she signed up as soon as she could.
"I knew immediately it was something I wanted to do," Marano said. "I'm pumped. I'm excited for the challenge."
Despite the $4,500 fundraising requirement, Marano was able to go above and beyond, raising more then $5,700.
"People were so generous she said. "They think it's a wonderful cause."

Poll shows governments lag behind citizens in readiness to tackle global warming
Poll shows governments lag behind citizens in readiness to tackle global warming
A sweeping global survey conducted for BBC World Service has found people are far more willing to make financial and lifestyle sacrifices to arrest climate change than most leaders acknowledge.
But whatever else politicians think of the findings, they will certainly pounce on respondents' willingness to pay higher taxes. Canadians are among world leaders in willingness to accept potential lifestyle changes and higher taxes to address climate change, according to a new poll.
The global survey of more than 22,000 people in 21 countries, including 1,000 Canadians, suggests that citizens in general – including those in China and the U.S., respectively the world's biggest polluters – are more prepared than their governments to support tough measures.
The poll showed 50% of respondents in favor of hiking energy taxes to discourage use, versus 44% opposed. Support swung sharply in favor, even in the most skeptical countries, when respondents were assured the money would be used to find alternative clean energy sources, or for personal tax cuts.
Just 46% of Americans said they were prepared to support higher energy taxes, for example, but when asked if they'd accept a higher tax if they knew the money would go to renewable energy investments, the figure jumped to 74%.
It's a rare politician who's ever seen a tax increase he or she didn't like. For months, trial balloons have been testing opinions on "higher taxes to save the environment." When the next round of tax hikes comes, lets hope they spend as effectively to get us out of the mess we're in as they did shoving us into it.
Previous Comments
I'm surprised this isn't the top story, Bill. That's some kick ass info. Thanks.
"The poll, conducted between May 29 to June 26, 2007, found that an "overwhelming" 91% of Canadians believe people must make unspecified personal "lifestyle and behaviour" changes to reduce their own climate-changing emissions." – From National Post story
I wonder what the reaction will be when those personal and lifestyle changes are spelled out? The devil is always in the details.
You're right, John. It's going to be difficult. What say we get on with figuring out the details? I think shift toward a carbon tax is best (with reductions in income tax).
I, for one, am not ready to pay any taxes, carbon or otherwise, to address a phantom menace like global warming. First you have to make the AGW case, Steve.
All you have now is an unproven hypothesis backed up with suspect climate models. Just because a lot of environmentalists have accepted these fudged model projections as fact and spun doomsday scenarios around them to help with fund-raising, it doesn't make them real.
You know it might be good if government actually propopsed a tax on carbon because that would get peoples' attention. If it becomes a pocketbook issue, people will take a close look as the so-called scientific evidence for global warming. Careful what you wish for, Steve.
Rob also doesn't understand what proof means in terms of science. I'll recommend to you the same thing I recommended to him: look up Karl Popper or the philosophy of science. You can spout your ignorant opinions about whether or not the scientific consensus is well-founded – you don't understand science so nobody will pay you any attention.
Why should more taxes be applied to carbon emissions? Well, of course there's SFU economist Mark Jaccard's research that states a phased-in approach will hardly cost us, especially if taxes are shifted. But there are others, too. Here's something from the Wall Street Journal (I chose a source that you should not object to ideologically – you're welcome):
They suggest a carbon tax, too. How about that? (Also, please note that I think taxes applied to carbon should reduce income tax.)

Holidays for Free !!
Spending your own holiday in Italy is more than understandable: the pleasure of losing yourself in the 'green heart of Italy', or coming across a restructured 'casale' on the outskirts of a mediaeval village, nestled in timeless olive groves, cannot be beaten.
But the lush green Umbrian countryside can also provide you with a business – yes, that's right! You can buy a house, or even better, a 'casale', and not worry about the maintenance costs because these will be covered by the rent from lettings while the owner's not there. This is an even more attractive proposition, and you can leave it all to us!

The Freshman $1000: How To Help Your College Student With Credit Card Debt
Because of these limitations, Ulzheimer recommends that the parent to pay off the debt and then have the student pay back the parent either the whole amount or a portion of the debt with interest added. "The payback process isn't really as much about the money as about the effort and learning that you have to work to pay off your debts," says Ulzheimer.
3. Brainstorm ways for future responsible credit management
Talk with your student about the long term effects of poor credit decisions. Discuss how giving into the temptation for the latest gadgets or fashions can affect their ability down the road to buy a car, take out a mortgage or even land a job that requires a credit check.
Brainstorm together about ways to avoid this situation in the future and how she can use credit responsibly in the future. If your student currently has her own credit card, Ulzheimer recommends closing the account and adding her to one of your credit cards as an authorized user to give you more control and monitoring ability. If this is not option, other strategies include lowering the college student's credit limit to $300 or $500 and having the bills sent to your address to help give your student some accountability.
"Your main goal should be to help teach your child how to use credit cards responsibly at an early age." says Ulzheimer. There may not be an easy way to have a conversation about finances, but better a tough conversation now than a real disaster later.

Nashville Review: Positive Promotionsby Dan Forcella at . Comments
Having moved away from the city of Nashville over a year ago now, it was a bit of a homecoming having the TV show Nashville finally return with its second season premiere.
"I Fall to Pieces" was a great start to the year, servicing each of our favorite characters well and highlighting the stories of a couple of new series regulars along the way.
It was announced over the summer that Chris Carmack, as well as sisters Lennon and Maisy Stella, had been promoted to series regular for season two. And the writers didn't waste any time building on their hearty story lines that concluded the first season.
The two girls, new to the acting game, were amazing every time they sang in season one, but remained hot and cold in their acting performances throughout. In the season two premiere, however, they proved to be a bright spot.
Watching Maddie and Daphne react to their mother's coma, and then her waking up from it, was deeply emotional. It got a bit misty over here when the two girls realized their mom was actually going to be okay.
Mr. Carmack, meanwhile, who some of us know and love from his days on The OC, has been given the challenge of portraying this character who has such a difficult time figuring out how he wants to live his life.
Will is gay, but gives off this perception of being a womanizer because he thinks it benefits his career aspirations of being a country star. Even to his now good friend Gunnar, he can't admit that he is in the closet.
Carmack has done a great job - especially in the moment in this premiere when he had to tell the girl to head on home - of letting bits of Will's emotions seep out. The guy tries to keep them all bottled out, and at some point that's not going to work.
Let's meet the rest of the band...
Yes she was in a coma for most of the hour, but thanks to those interesting flashbacks, we weren't withheld our moments with Rayna. I know we have known about the facts that those flashbacks were showing, but it was still a nice feature to see what the early Rayna and Deacon relationship was like.
You had to love this guy taking all of the blame for what happened, even though Rayna was the one driving. He's right. His drinking had a lot to do with why they crashed. Luckily for us, that's not how the law works, because now we don't have to watch him sit in a jail cell for the entirety of the series.
The two sides of Juliette Barnes were in full effect here, as much of the premiere she spent complaining about how Rayna's coma was having a negative effect on her album release. She also used Rayna's misfortunes to her advantage with that tribute to her at the album release concert. She can just be an awful person sometimes.
But then there are moments like when she gave her number to Maddie and told her to call her any time, and you have to just adore her. When that heart comes out, and she is actually nice to people, it's fantastic to watch.

It looks like the love triangle might be back in full effect! Scarlett said no to Gunnar's proposal, but after his trip to the Bluebird, he might be back in her good graces. Avery, meanwhile, has been nothing but good to her for a while now, so anything could happen at this point!
It was a great jumping off point for Nashville Season 2. What did you all think of "I Fall to Pieces?" What were your favorite moments? What didn't you like? Are you excited to see Carmack and the girls have bigger roles And which song was the best of the night?

HORRIBLE SHOW! Sick of it. The writer's make everyone in Nashville out to be HOARS and this is okay? NO it is not, this is actually pathetic writing, TV just a few years ago actually had some decent writers for Prime Time. SICK of everyone sleeping around like that is how people really are and then all the misnomer of being Christians, Typical Liberal idiots in Hollywood and ABC. After watching the most recent episode where the wife who is being cheated on approaches Juliette and asks why she isn't having sex with her...I'm DONE! TURN THE SMUT OFF!!! These people are ridiculous and with a society with enough problems of adultery, pornography and STD's must make all those LIBERALS proud because you hate ethics, morality so much. Disgusted and Callie Khouri I truly feel sorry for you, your family and hopefully your parents aren't alive to see how pathetic of a so called writer, producer, "creator" you really are, no one should be proud of this even the actors. STAND UP for yourselves and the show or get off the air, although ABC has a reputation for this sort of CR_P! Hayden girl, this is a pathetic role for you and not one you or your family, friends should be proud of either, if your father is alive, I'm sure he's disgusted and if not that is even sadder and I'm sorry for you. WILL NEVER WATCH IT AGAIN!!!
Are you ok? You seem a little out of control.
This is another show that I like. Great cast, good music and some fairly decent writing. I hope the trend continues.
(contd.) really disappointed with writers. Juliette needs someone who will call her out on her BS and Avery will be the one to do that. Please writers take that road!!!!
@Terri Pretty sure they didn't forget about them just ignored the fact they were there like I would like to. I hate on every tv show that there is an OTP that doesn't end up together for good until the last season or last couple of episodes and i'm worried that they are going to do this with Deacon and Rayna. Rayna using this as her reason for moving on from Deacon is IMO completely ridiculous. Rayna was driving, Rayna didn't have to pull the bottle out of his hand instead of looking at the road, Rayna lied to him about who the father of her child was for YEARS. Deacon had had basically no time to process the news and was dealing with it the only way he knew how, to turn to his addiction (which is what a lot of addicts would really do in that situation). He made a choice, and so did Rayna so she shouldn't blame that choice on him. Well besides the Rayna/Deacon situation, I really want Avery and Juliette to get together. If they replay the Scarlett/Gunnar/Avery love triangle I will be really disappointed with the writers. Juliette needs someone who will call her out on her BS and he is the one who will do it.
Dan, I really enjoy your reviews of this show. Your heart for Nashville (the city) comes out every time. First - Can we just give it up for Charles Esten, please? My goodness, he's such a powerful actor; he impresses me more and more every episode. He really shows Deacon's brokenness. He's made such a mess of his life, but I still can't help rooting for his redemption. Juliette - how can one person be so revolting yet so lovely? Love Triangle - I have always, and will always root for Gunnar when it comes to Scarlett. However, I love Avery's redemption. I'm actually hoping that Avery will be Juliette's saving grace. Teddy - I've never understood the whole "let's lie about being pregnant" thing, and why writers even use it. I mean - that lie has a pretty standard expiration date. It's kind of a lazy plot vehicle.
Not happy at all!!! why couldnt rayna remember deacon calling her 'baby' and saving her flipping life!! how is everyone now going to treat deacon and rayna once they find out the whole truth? teddy bore me later, will bore me later. gunner hello honey still looking hot!! hope he doe properly grow up and move on from scarlet, don't think she is good for him. avery honey no, you should be lucky that she is even talking to you!! i just want rayna to be happy and no teddy that isn't going to be you. the father being behind the death of the mum, twist never saw coming but hmm how will this pan out....
I was not impressed with this episode. I'm glad it's back but can't wait to see what happens next with the new characters. I'm hoping by the end of season 2 we see Deacon and Maddie getting to know each other on a different level.
So why did Teddy have a change of heart? I do not like him and think he and Peggy make the perfect couple. However he told her he will only be there for her financially and you could see it coming when Peggy lost the baby. However she will drag it out as long as she can pretending she is pregnant, in hopes that he will change his mind or in the least take his money.
Will is sure a jerk, hope he smartens up. I really hope that Gunnar and Scarlet get back together.
I totally forgot that Rayna was driving! I was in fear that Deacon would stay in jail for a long time until the lawyer said there was proof my seat belt marks on Rayna that she was driving. I am glad that when Rayna woke up that she confirmed that. Deacon is very angry and it should all be at himself not at others, especially Scarlet.
I wanted to slap Juliette several times. The little bit of sympathy I had for her at the end of last season disappeared as soon as she opened her mouth. I am so glad that Avery called her out on it, eventhough she did not seem to care.
She had one sweet moment with Maddie but to me it seems like she is going to use knowing that Deacon is Maddie's dad , against Rayna. It was nice that she helped Scarlet with the bail money but it was not needed.
So why did Teddy have a change of heart? I do not like him and think he and Peggy make the perfect couple.

Can't wait to see what unfolds this season. You forgot about Peggy and Teddy. Looks like Peggy is going to lie to Teddy and to get him to believe she's still pregnant although she miscarried. I do wonder what Teddy will try to pull now that Deacon is not going to be in jail. I also wonder if Rayna's sister will turn on their father and if he really is responsible for their mother's death.

Another example is RSS1.0 [1]. It's arguable whether it's just as valid to call a RSS instance an RDF document as an RSS document, but I'd note that this specific serialisation was chosen to be backwards-compatible with a non-RDF XML language, so it is useful to identify it as RSS.

I understand the conventional wisdom to be that jars of washed yeast should be stored in the refrigerator until ready to use. Obviously, however, the yeast is not refrigerated while sitting at the bottom of the fermenter, often for 3-4 weeks for those of us who do extended primaries. Once the beer is racked off the yeast cake, vigorous fermentation will begin if fresh wort is dumped on top of it. The same quick fermentation begins if yeast washed the same day as it is pitched (which has never been refrigerated) is used. In my experience fermentation takes much longer to begin if washed yeast that has been refrigerated and then brought to room temperature on brewday is used.
Why is the yeast unharmed while sitting under fermented wort (beer) at room temperature, yet it is supposedly not possible to store washed yeast in a mason jar under sterile water at room temperature? It seems to me that my fermentations would start much quicker if I stored the yeast at room temperature?
Since no one has responded, I am wondering if I am wrong about what I thought was the "conventional wisdom." Does everyone else refrigerate their washed yeast?
I won't pretend to know the science behind it, but I always refrigerate my washed yeast. I think my presumption is that when you wash your yeast, you're swapping out your beer/alcohol with a lot of straight water, and thus it's a lot more susceptible to bugs since the abv is way lower then. Additionally, I think bugs/infections in general don't like the cold of the refrigerator. Additionally #2, my jars of yeast have the tendency to offgas/ferment a wee bit if I leave it out at room temperature, so although a closed Mason jar will take some of that, a bit too much and the lid will bulge and bad things could happen in short order.
Probably none of that matches any good scientific reason, but it works for me. I make a starter every time from my washed yeast, so lag time on ferment is a non-issue in my workflow.
The whole yeast cake has many live/active cells ready to do their job. When you harvest and split the yeast into multiple containers there are fewer live yeast cells to reproduce and metabolize sugar in the small volume. Refrigeration is necessary to prevent growth of both yeast and contaminants. If kept at a warm temp, yeast will continue to metabolize until they run out of food, waste products accumulate, or contaminating bacteria or mold take over. Freezing is better for long term storage, but the lag time is greater from starter inoculation to active fermentation. It takes them longer to get going but their overall health will be better.
Bacteria are the only culture some people have.
I'd like to offer my anecdotal experience that I've had washed yeast in the fridge for a year and have had it fire up in a starter just fine, smell fine, and make fine beer. Granted, I store larger portions of yeast so even if half or more of the cells die I still have plenty. These year old jars of yeast have not been treated well, either; they've made two-day journeys in a cooler twice, warmed to room temperature more than once, and still come out alive. Persistent buggers.
i would hazard a guess that after they finish multiplying their time is limited wherever they are, and of course their longevity is temperature dependent. you can keep them at the bottom of your fermenter for a few weeks or in a jar in water at the same temp for a few weeks and i bet they would be similar. i have never tried this, i am just thinking into the keyboard. but once you've harvested them you may as well get them cold immediately and slow down their degradation, be that after 10 days or 1 month. sounds logical to me but i don't know if it's correct!
Where are our biologists! We need answers people.
My guess, and it is only a guess, is that refridgeration is necessary to "slow down" the yeast and make them somewhat dormant. I like to think of them as mini-bears who hibernate when it gets cold. They can survive for a long period of time without food and water, but ultimately, they will die. This process seems to happen faster when not cooled.
But like I said, that's my imagination and I need scientists to help me out. Maybe that cute yeast specialist from Dogfish head can respond.

E Equals MC Hammer Discussion
here. Describe the discussion? Bring that up in your English class sometime.
: It seems to me that this would be a good place to mention the equations in
Final Fantasy VII
that appear when Sephiroth does his Supernova attack. The equations appear too quickly to make any real sense of them, so I don't know if they're a solid example or an exception. Any thoughts on that?
: Well, I've got a youtube of the move, but frankly I'm not sure what some of those variables mean. Hey, anyone here know what U,S,R, and p mean, and why Sephie would be using them as they relate to electric flux? Dunno why he used Pi r squared, unless he's trying to calculate the mass of the sun he's about to blow up... The rest is just a little too small and blurry to make out.
Mega Troop X
: Have you ever really
at what that equation is telling you? Energy (in joules) equals mass (in kilograms) times the speed of light in a vacuum (299,792,458 meters/second), squared. Even samll amounts of matter thus have ridiculous amounts of potential energy. I actually plugged that into Excel, and learned that if a mas of 1 kilogram could be totally converted into energy, it could generate 1 kilowatt-hour of power for over
2 million years!
:The equation behind the board in the illustration from
White and Nerdy
is actuallly a perfectly cromulent-looking piece of quantum mechanics. It appears to be the classic model of the hydrogen atom. The troper citing it claims it contains an error, but if so I think it is obscured by Weird Al's head in this photo—-at any rate, I can't spot it.
Me (one day I'm gonna sign up)
: Hey guys and girls... Am I the only one to know it's "Energy equals Mass by Speed Of Light
", or "E=MC" is just a subtle joke I did not get? :Nope. Somebody changed e=mc^2 to e=mc
(html token for superscript 2)
. After the next edit, the
(html token for superscript 2)
part changed to the literal superscript two character, then the next edit it vanished; at least that's what happened to me in the sandbox [edit- and here as well]. I'm changing it back.
What's with the anime picture? It's jarringly out of place and it's not even representative of anime - there are a grand total of three anime instances listed. Get rid of it.
2/10; you got me to raise my eyebrows.

Zagat editor Maureen Giannone visited Brooklyn's The Bagel Store for their newly released product, the Cragel. She filed the following report.
It only was a matter of time for one of New York's most beloved foods, the bagel, to take center stage on the hybrid food scene, and there's no better place than at Brooklyn's The Bagel Store, a spot that's headed up by Scot Rossillo, who's been re-inventing the way New Yorkers eat bagels since 2000.
"I consider myself a bagel artist," Rossillo says. "I'm always thinking about the next creative process for my bagels."
Even after a history of creative creations in his own shop, like the English muffin bagel and the bialy bagel, Scot's honored to be a part of the current thriving trend, one that Chef Dominique Ansel brought onto the scene in full force with the Cronut just last May.
"Last year, 2013, we had the Cronut, which is a genius idea," Rossillo says. "It got everybody motivated."
All-in-one, a croissant and a bagel sounds like treat enough, but this team has taken breakfast up a notch with specials like the Cragel breakfast sandwich, which offers your choice of eggs, bacon, ham or sausage, and cheese.
If you're into sweet more than the savory, don't hesitate to accompany the Cragel with some of their sweeter cream cheese and Nutella offerings. But in its purist form, the Cragel is a sweet treat that's doughy like a bagel but embraces the light, flakiness of a croissant.
"You get the best of both worlds in here," Rossillo says. "It's like a happy marriage."
As the "Sold Out" sign implies, this is an item you've got to get while it's hot.

For reasons only known to young laptop murk-designer Balam Acab, the young man has just remixed "Touch'n You," a Rick Ross/Usher collaboration from the former's God Forgives, I Don't album. Balam Acab's virtually unrecognizable six-minute version of the song sounds like a lost Man-Thing trudging through a swamp while the guy from Salem howls with anguish in the distance. It is ridiculous. Download it below.

Morning all! :)
A quick and hopefully easy question in regards to Softlink Alice Library! We have installed Alice onto one of our servers and created a link to the executable file on our LRC Manager's desktop.
We have never experienced an issue with this configuration in the past, but now it seems our LRC Manager cannot run the 'shutdown' process in Alice. I also logged onto Alice whilst on the server and found that the 'shutdown' option is highlighted in red and cannot be activated ...
Has anyone else installed Alice to a server and if so, how do you run the Alice 'shutdown' procedure?
If worst comes to worst I'll purchase some support from Softlink, but as with most schools, we're on a tight budget! ;)

The Las Vegas City Schools board gave Superintendent Rick Romero a vote of confidence as his contract was rolled over for another year.
Outgoing President Patrick Romero was the lone dissenter, but said in his opening remarks, "I like you." He said the reason for his no vote was that he didn't like the idea of rollover contracts.
On Wednesday night, Las Vegas resident Tony Ortega was called a "one-man wrecking crew for the image of Las Vegas." And it was suggested that the city pursue criminal charges against Ortega.
Last year, the city entered agreements with Ortega to clean up his properties in the Railroad Avenue area or the city would take care of the problems itself.
Last week, members of the Luna Community College Board of Trustees expressed their displeasure with the decline in student enrollment, which plunged 7.3 percent within a year's time.
But if you look at the last few years, the number has been going up and down.
When the number drops, that means less dollars from the state. Northeastern New Mexico is lightly populated, so there will come a point where we shouldn't expect Luna's numbers to rise anymore.
A defense attorney wants to move the case involving the killing of a 6-year-old girl out of town because of emotional media coverage.
Last September, David Levi Chavez, 21, was charged with an open count of murder in connection with the death of Jasmine Garcia, who had just graduated from kindergarten.
Garcia was sleeping in her mother's bed at 304 Union St. late on June 15, when a shot ripped through an outside wall facing the street, killing her. Authorities say that Chavez was aiming for Garcia's uncle when he fired at the house.
San Miguel County officials want to add a 1.6-mile path for bicyclists and pedestrians along Cinder Road as part of a long-term plan to extend the city's riverwalk.
But some residents in the Cinder Road area have concerns about the proposed project.
For the last few years, the county has been planning the path, which it hopes will extend all the way to Montezuma. The county's portion would start 700 feet north of Mills, which is where the county's unincorporated area begins.
The owner of a local auto repair shop has pleaded guilty to attacking customers who owed him money.
In plea agreements in January, Romero, 32, owner of Michael's Precision Automotive, admitted to two counts of aggravated battery and one count of attempting to commit a felony, all of which are misdemeanors.
As part of the agreements, prosecutors dropped charges of unlawful taking of a vehicle, robbery, kidnapping, extortion and intimidation of a witness.
His attorney said this week that his client's guilty pleas were a business decision.
Isn't home where you hang your hat? We thought so, but politicos often seem to struggle with this question.
Last week, we reported on Manuel Lucero, the treasurer for the campaign of Tony Valdez, who ran successfully for a seat on the Luna Community College Board of Trustees.
Union Elementary School is bustling as its student population doubled in January to accommodate kids from Don Cecilio Martinez Elementary, where one wing of the school is undergoing a complete renovation.
Principal Delbert Saavedra said children from four classrooms in second, third, fourth and fifth grades made the move on Jan. 6, which effectively doubled the number of kids attending his school.
A Cleveland, N.M., man who went to his family's house to talk out some of their differences ended up being arrested for allegedly attacking them.
Robert Lawrence Romero, 22, was charged with two counts of aggravated battery on household members and criminal damage to property.
It is my belief that the Las Vegas City Council voted appropriately in their decision to not make Grand Avenue two lane for a five-block distance. Grand Avenue is an inter-city highway. It serves as a business loop through Las Vegas. It also serves as a route for emergency vehicles to traverse the city as well as to quickly exit to emergency situations on Interstate 25.

CEO Note: Building a Better Baltic
The Baltic Sea is in terrible shape. One of the most polluted seas in the world, more than 90% of commercially exploitable species in the Baltic and the adjacent Kattegat are fished without any limits.
That changed last Friday when the authorities of Uusimaa and the Southeast Finland Centre for Economic Development, Transport and the Environment banned all wild sea trout fisheries in the Gulf of Finland. Wild sea trout is critically endangered in the Baltic Sea and has suffered under almost nonexistent management. Before the ban there was simply no limit to how much Baltic sea trout could be caught.
Meanwhile, the European Parliament recently announced that it would stake out a new, more responsible management strategy for Baltic Sea salmon, a fish hobbled, gravely in some areas, by similarly slipshod and unscientific management. Both developments are a validation of Oceana's hard work in the region.
Earlier this year, Oceana's research vessel, the Hanse Explorer, set off for a six-week expedition to the Baltic and Kattegat seas. The purpose of that trip was to document and map vulnerable areas and to study the marine life of these brackish waters through extensive sampling, as well as dives by remote operated vehicle and scuba divers (such as Oceana senior advisor Alexandra Cousteau who joined the cruise). This work will be crucial moving forward as the region works to rebuild its ailing fisheries, and it's already started to pay off.
With the EU and Baltic countries signaling a renewed commitment to the stewardship of this unique but imperiled ecosystem there is very real hope that it can recover. But that will require the vigilance of Europe's leaders and citizens, and of organizations like Oceana, which has been leading the charge in the effort to save the Baltic.
Andy Sharpless is the CEO of Oceana

When you get a strange ending in any of the movies of Pokewood, your starring pokemon will be rewarded with a shiny star upon entering battle. While it is different from those sparkles of N's pokemons and shinies, it is quite something to see, cuz it means your pokemon is a movie star!
How many of your pokemons are Movie Stars? I only got three or so strange endings, so only my Gallade, Umbreon, and Volcarona received the shiny stars. What about yours?

Product Review - Video Media Storage Cabinet with Lock (Small) - Black
NiCE!!! I was amazed with the quality of the Storage Cabinet that I bought from the store. - Tyler
What a stlylish Design!! I am also satisfied by the adjustable shelves which really accommodate a lot of my stuff. - Benjamin
Nice unit. Not too difficult to assemble. Holds lots of media. Like all particle-board furniture, it's pretty heavy and loaded doors may eventually put too much strain on the hinges but so far everything is working as expected. - Scott
Had to asemble myself. Good instructions but took me all day. Customer Service Rep very helpful advising me when I was tracking item. Well packed. Not damaged. Would buy from this company again. - None
very useful. - none
