Regarding the problems mentioned on here with the format that datetime columns are returned in. Running on debian lenny and used apt-get install php5-sybase to get access to these functions. After which datetime fields were returned as a string something like 'Feb 16 2010 09:14:10:010AM' which was not recognised when passed to e.g. new DateTime(). Also smalldatetime fields caused php to crash.
To fix I did this:
vi /etc/php5/apache2/php.ini
After this line:
;mssql.datetimeconvert = On
Add this line:
mssql.datetimeconvert = Off
Now both datetime and smalldatetime come back as something like '2010-02-16 09:14:00'.

Gallbladder Diet
Viewer question: My sister had her gallbladder removed recently. What kind of diet will she need to be on, and will she now be at greater risk for heart disease?
Doctors response: When the gallbladder is removed, bile made by the liver can no longer be stored between meals. Instead, the bile flows directly into the intestine anytime the liver produces it. Thus, there still is bile in the intestine to mix with food and fat. It is true that there is not as much bile, but there is enough to allow the digestion and transfer of fat. People who have had their gallbladders removed do not need to limit the fat in their diet.

For TCW's December issue, you'll see our Man of the Month is Ebenezer Scrooge. We wanted to be festive and have fun, but we of course don't want to discount the man behind the Goodman Theatre's iconic stage character.
Actor Larry Yando, from Poughkeepsie, New York, has played Scrooge since 2007. He went to school at SUNY New Paltz, then came to Chicago and earned an MFA from DePaul Theatre School. "I thought I'd go back to New York, but got really lucky and did a bunch of shows right out of school," he says, noting, "21 years later, I'm still in Chicago! It's a happy accident."
A dancer growing up. Mr. Yando's kindergarten teacher kept sending home report cards to his mother saying, "He sings and dances all around the classroom, I think you should give him lessons." By the fourth time, "my mother – who was a factory worker from a family of 12 brothers – said yes." he recalls. "After some time, I realized I didn't want to be a dancer but I wanted to act, so I shifted gears. I started performing when I was really young, but started acting when I was about 18."
Mr. Yando says the best part about his job is that he can communicate to others by telling a story that's magical and delightful. "I feel like I can expose some aspect of humanity to others," he explains. "With Scrooge, I can take people on a journey that everyone can relate to on some level. Everyone can relate to the Scrooge at the beginning of A Christmas Carol – the pain and the solitude that he starts out with – and by the end, rejoicing with him because he's found the spirit of the holidays again."
When asked about staying in Chicago (over New York or Los Angeles) for theater, Mr. Yando says, "What got me here was luck – with my first jobs, I just got lucky, which is so much a part of this business. I landed really great roles that gave me high exposure early on right out of DePaul. What keeps me here is the support and atmosphere of artistic abandon that you have to not be pigeonholed into any one category. I've gotten to do musicals, Shakespeare, intense dramas and contemporary plays. I know there's not another city like it. Every time I teach I tell every student to go to L.A. and New York, because they have all their strengths. But in order to build up a strong craft and a resume, you're not going to find another city with the acting opportunities than Chicago."
Having done Shakespeare, Mr. Yando knows that men used to play women back in the day. In today's world, the actor knows there are 'meatier' roles for women. One reason why: "There are more women playwrights, baring their souls and giving them great material to work with," he shares. "Of the hundreds of dynamic actresses that exist, there are more opportunities for them because there are more roles being written for them. That wasn't the case before, when all the major playwrights were men. In my opinion, the really exciting current playwrights are women. My favorite and best acting teachers were women, so I was always aware of women's voices trying to emerge and now I'm seeing these voices blossom."

The Global Intelligence Files
On Monday February 27th, 2012, WikiLeaks began publishing The Global Intelligence Files, over five million e-mails from the Texas headquartered "global intelligence" company Stratfor. The e-mails date between July 2004 and late December 2011. They reveal the inner workings of a company that fronts as an intelligence publisher, but provides confidential intelligence services to large corporations, such as Bhopal's Dow Chemical Co., Lockheed Martin, Northrop Grumman, Raytheon and government agencies, including the US Department of Homeland Security, the US Marines and the US Defence Intelligence Agency. The emails show Stratfor's web of informers, pay-off structure, payment laundering techniques and psychological methods.

LaForge, who took over as DSU's eighth president on April 15, has been busy his first few weeks connecting with local citizens, municipalities, businesses and organizations.
LaForge has drawn a lot of local excitement as he promises to expand DSU's presence at the state and national level.
"It's not like coming home — it is home," said LaForge, who previously served as principal of LaForge Government Relations in Washington, D.C.
LaForge spoke with the board about DSU visions and major focus areas in his new role.
"We're thinking bigger but not too big for our britches," said LaForge. "We want to provide the best quality education that we can."
LaForge said one of the keys to amplifying the DSU experience is adding to its list of available programs.
Supervisor Preston Billings asked the president what could be done to reach out to top-notch Bolivar County students who might shy away from DSU due to lack of funding.
"We want and need these students," said LaForge, admitting that 75 percent of DSU students rely on financial aid.
Plans are underway to create internship/work cooperative programs with local businesses to boost the workforce and to help students receive a little extra financial support each semester.
LaForge said the meaningful platform would allow businesses to "buy in" and the concept would also be a valuable tool to increase the school's enrollment.
He added that educating the first generation of college graduates could make all the difference in helping a family fight its way out of poverty.
LaForge went on to mention some bullet-point goals he had previously discussed at faculty and student forums, including a race reconciliation seminar, an on-campus Blues music conference and an enhanced international exchange program.
Supervisor Donny Whitten said he was "tickled to death" to have a homegrown leader show a commitment to communal success.
"I couldn't think of a finer person to take over as the new president," said Whitten.
LaForge, who began his political career 40 years ago as the Bolivar County deputy chancery clerk, said he understood the importance of county government and would continue to work with local leaders outside campus.
"You have a partner in me and Delta State," LaForge told the supervisors.

all I can say is OMFG!!! He turned 18 last year, so I don't want to risk posting an underage pic here. He totally looks like he could do gay porn as a bottom twink.
What do you all think of him?

Here are some age appropriate pics of Austin for your viewing pleasure
Last edited by quasar; October 22nd, 2010 at 02:00 AM. Reason: u/a image removed
He is definitely hot.
It's never too early in the year,
to spread some goodwill cheer!
sexy looking chest
Didn't know who he was, had to look him up. Looks like he is just a disney star.
I think he looks a bit like Chord Overstreet
Very beautiful
Actually he was in the last season of Zoey 101 a few years ago, then he did a show on ABC Family last summer, and he was also in the movie Aliens in the Attic. But this past year he has made small guest spots on Disney like one episode of Wizards of Waverly Place and one episode of Jonas LA. But he is going to be in the Disney Channel Original movie Sharpay's Fabulous Adventure starring along side his Aliens in the Attic co-star Ashley Tisdale due out Spring/Summer 2011
won't be posting any more pics- the mods keep deleting half my posts- (thought Austin Bulter was over 18, etc...he was when the pics were released...whatever!!! Some know it all tattle tale who has a problem with me....I wonder who.....wink wink- I put him on ignore, but obviously he's still seeing and reporting my posts) it's not worth the effort- I'll just lurk from now on and appreciate the work of others.
A couple of images does not amount to half your posts, and you forgot to mention they were deleted because the images were taken before actors were 18, and we accepted it was totally un-intentional on your part. If you're going to be this petulant, then why posting in the thread!
I love his body
I meant half my pics of late.....
Great body. I'd love to lick his pecs...among other things
Is this dude Chord Overstreet's brother?
They look almost alike..... same face, hair, and killer bodies.
Austin is on a show called Ruby and the Rockits.
Austin Robert Butler
Chord Overstreet
So what do you think?
I like them both. Chord has better blow job lips though.
very delicious!
They are both cute... but I don't really see the similarity except that they are both blond twinks. So are a thousand other people.
I would do ungodly things to that man lol
thanks for the pics!! ^ and i totally agree!
You and me both ........... LOVE that bulge!
who is he?
Yummy it looks thick
Very hot pics! Both are very hot.
I was really hoping we'd get some leaked pictures like this (or better) of Josh Hutcherson when they were dating.
What does an ass got to do to survive in a world full of dicks?
wow he looks good (wink wink)
ok, when i first saw this thread, i was alright, vanessa's with another guy so what....click on it, saw the bulge, like it...of course. i had no idea who this Austin Butler guy was. so i googled him....OMFG. HE'S SO FUCKING HOT!!!
That's probably just his tube of sunblock
Oh, and I mean this in a nice way, although there isn't a nice way to say it, but Vanessa seems to be emulating Snookie these days. She just looks... odd. Not so much in these photos, but in others that I've seen from this trip.
Oh, and hopefully alot of the photos are staged, otherwise this is one rude couple who tend to maul each other in public. She was crawling all over him like a black widow on a fly
His cock is looking good. He can keep wearing the sunglasses. I didn't know the whole Zanessa thing was over Wasn't it just yesterday they did that whole naughty store excursion? So yeah, Vanessa can go back to Zac, and I'll work on that thing there.
I dont get how this fugly girl lands all these hot guys.
Vanessa Hudgens is such a slut wasn't she just fucking Josh Hutcherson
Isn't he like 20 years old? It feels wrong just seeing these pics. Kinda gross actually.
Good for Vanessa finally findinga guy that can get a boner at the sight of a woman.
aah hhe's soo hot and cute
Nice cock
Austin stripping on ABC Family's "Switched at Birth"
Wet shirt on "Switched at Birth"
Some more pics...
Vanessa definitely has good taste in men, Zac Efron, then Josh Hutcherson, and now Austin
God designed him perfectly.. On the outside anyway.
I would love for this thread to be brought back to life.
He's so beautiful and on the new show The Carrie Diaries.
" For all there is to feel, let it be felt"
― Emeli Sande
Add more pics like that and it might just happen.
It's never too early in the year,
to spread some goodwill cheer!
yeah, his body is INSANELY defined for such a young guy!

Regarding Beef Broth... At Trader Joe's it is probably in a carboard carton ( similar to soy milk ). At a regular store it is with the soups ( Campbell's, Swanson, College Inn all make chicken and beef broths ). There are also cubes of bullion ( I don't suggest ).

That looks delish! But I just gotta ask, Steph. Is it really worth all the time awaitin'? I made home made oatmeal this morning in about 3 minutes. If I'd planned ahead, I could have rehydrated some dry apples and tossed them in for an extra 5 minutes too. I'm not hatin'...I love you for this. But sometimes it seems impractical? In-practical? Un-practical? Please tell me I'm wrong. ;) I'm not trying to be a meanie. Go forth and crock. =)
- February 8, 2008 at 8:09 AM
- Crockpot Lady said...
Amie, that's a totally valid point. Pretty much anything can be cooked faster and probably more efficiently in the microwave, stovetop or oven. It's all about the crock love for me. ;-0
On this particular day, I wasn't in a hurry to have breakfast ready. I get up to work between 4 or 5, so I put this on to have breakfast ready when the kids got up. It smelled yummy, too!

I just had to tell you that I made this oatmeal THIS MORNING. Last night I preped the ingredients, realizing that I cannot keep milk in a crock-pot overnight...SO, I kindly asked my dh to get up at 4am to add the wet ingredients (I put the milk, cut up apples, and vanilla in a pitcher in the fridge for him) so it would be ready by 6am to eat.
Must say that this was very yummy. I added some cinnamon and it was delish. - February 8, 2008 at 12:19 PM
- Crockpot Lady said...
I'm so glad that it worked out for you, kj!
- February 8, 2008 at 2:08 PM
- Elaine said...
One of the nice things about getting up at 5am to work is that I got to try this out this morning. I think I would have liked it a wee bit better if I'd peeled the apples but methinks the fiber is probably good for us all, so I'll say it was a choice.
I also used 2 apples because I like to live dangerously. It was very applely. Shut up, it's a word. To compensate I threw in an extra handful of oats (maybe a quarter cup?). I only had red apples but I'm betting your green was better. Tart would have been nice against all that sweet.
Overall? I approve and will likely make this again. Because hey, if I can throw stuff in a pot and walk away (rather than spend three minutes stirring all the darn time) I'll take it. Weeee! - February 10, 2008 at 7:34 AM

Hi Steph,
The stuffed peppers were a success last night (and not greasy). I currently have your hot and sour soup simmering on low. Since I have some soy milk that needs to be used, I was thinking of making this GF oatmeal. I only have a standard large round crockpot. Should I double the recipe since I don't have a stoneware dish to place inside either? Any other advice is appreciated. - May 14, 2008 at 12:06 PM
- Crockpot Lady said...
Hi~M! I made this oatmeal in a 6qt oval, so as long as you are around to monitor it, there shouldn't be an issue of it cooking too quickly and burning. it makes a delicious creamy oatmeal!
I'm SO glad the peppers were a hit!

found your site from In The Potter's Hands...don't use my crock often, but have used it TWICE in three days!
here's my oatmeal recipe:
1 C steel cut
3 C skim mild
one granny smith apple (with skin)
dash cinnamon
maple flavoring
sugar in the raw
molasses (GREAT iron source, ladies!)
1st hour high, 4 hours low.
added more molasses after cooking since I love the sweetness and need the extra iron this week.
Next time:
4 cups of liquid (2 water & 2 milk/soy milk)
more molasses
more fruits...cranberries maybe.
will make much more and put in the fridge next time for many days. only two meals out of my batch...it's GREAT!

I'm so excited to try this. I get up at 6 and leave for work at 7:15 but the kids (and therefore hubby) don't wake up until 8. I'm planning to toss this in the crock as I walk out the door so the family can wake up to a warm breakfast and the hubby can have a morning "off" from the usual stress of cooking and serving breakfast to a hungry 2 yo and grouchy 3 yo. Thanks!

Just a followup: it worked great! I'm lazy in the AM and didn't have time to do the apple so it was just 2 cups oats (traditional rolled), 2 cups water and about 1.5 cups milk with some salt and spices. I cooked it in my little 3 qt (?) crock so it was about 2/3 full. It was apparently still a little soupy when he got to it but he took the lid off as he got out bowls and the brown sugar, raisins, etc for the oatmeal bar we set up and by then it was perfect. Thanks!

Try using steel cut oats with this. You have never had truly good oatmeal until you have had these. The ratio of liquid to oats is 4:1. I use 3 cups water, 1 cup milk, 1 cup oats.

Sounds tasty ... I make mine with half milk, half water ... add vanilla and almond flavoring ... and LOTS of extras (chopped apple, dried fruit - craisens and approcots, chopped peacans)
Also, if time is a factor, make it in a rice cooker instead. I mix everything but the liquid (and that can sit in the fridge) the night before, then turn it on before I get in the shower. In my rice cooker it takes less than 30 min. - October 20, 2009 at 7:38 PM

Hi CPL,
I was in a store the other day and drawn to your book since my husband and I continue to eat out a lot and I would like to change that.
I tried this recipe first and found that the Vanilla seemed really strong, so I think I will cut that back next time, but I think as it cooks the intensity goes away. I guess I like my oatmeal much thicker. I also added more brown sugar...YUM!!! I might try the suggestion of maple syrup...YUMMY! Thanks for creating your book! I just bought the Hamilton Beach crock with the thermometer probe, I hope that was a good choice. - December 6, 2009 at 9:27 AM
I made this with steel cut oats, soaked overnight: 1 cup of oats and 1 cup of water plus 2 TB lemon juice (to break down the phytic acid - make it more digestible). This morning I drained off the water and added 1 1/2 cups rice milk, plus the vanilla, sweetener, and pinch of salt. (You could do 1 1/2 - 2 cups milk.) It took about 1 hour 15 minutes, and then we stirred applesauce in our bowls...YUM!

It's great!! I love this, simple? Yes! Yes, you can make it on the stove...but this is more fun!

I used steel cut oats and only water (added milk after because I do soy, hubby does 2%, and 1 yo takes whole) i put it on low for about 6 hours and then had it on warm for like 1 or 2 hours. Next time I will use better apples (maybe granny smith) mine were cameo (?) and they were on their way out, but they added good texture, just didn't taste like apples... Thanks for the recipe Steph! I got a new 1.5 quart crock this week and it is perfect for breakfast for the two (and a half) of us... Trying the "Not Kitchen Sink" (sorry can't remember the real name) casserole tomorrow with some steak that I accidentally over seasoned with soy sauce (why didn't I think of how salty it was when I tried to deglaze the pan with it lol)... It tasted like beef jerky! adding in some arugula and some pre sauteed thinly sliced fingerling potatoes and a little bit of cheese (and no additional salt lol)... it should be yummy...

I'm making this right now!! I changed it a little bit and put roughly:
2 cups oats
2 cups almond milk
1 tbsp vanilla extract
2 tbsp brown sugar
1 cut up apple
1 cut up banana
So far the vanilla smells the most prominent but the mix looks delicious! - February 10, 2011 at 7:04 AM
- Kat said...
OK, verdict: I ate this too fast to take pictures. No joke! It was so good! I added about a cup more oats though as the cooking went on and only needed to cook it for about an hour. The bananas were a tasty touch. My boyfriend liked them but ended up adding some milk to his. Guess we like our oatmeals different :D He said it was really tasty, though. We'll be making this again!!
- February 10, 2011 at 12:58 PM
this looks delicious! I was wondering if i could make the oatmeal batch beforehand(like a day before) and cook it later? I'm not sure if that would work.. Do you think it would?? Thanks!
p.s. Wow im the second person to post in 2011 :D - March 18, 2011 at 5:39 PM
We just put this in the crock (at 10:30pm) for brunch tomorrow. I quadrupled your recipe; to feed ten. (Also, we are having blueberry pancakes and banana muffins.)
Crossing my fingers! :D - April 15, 2011 at 10:42 PM

Hi Steph :) First of all...THANK YOU for this amazing blog! I have a question for you...I would like to make this oatmeal for my weekly "moms group" meeting at our church...tomorrow. This seems like a pretty small recipe. I need to feed around 10 ladies. Do you know how much I would need to double/tripple etc to get enough? Also, all I have is the larger size crock pot...I think 6 quarts or larger?? Is this pot too big to make the recipe in? Thanks so much..you are an inspiration!!
Leah :) - September 20, 2011 at 12:33 PM
- Josh/Leah said...
Still not sure if I should risk messing with the ammounts and using the big pot for tomorrow, but, I DID make it tonight for a late "dinner" for myself...I fed the fam frozen pizza...yea. one. of. those. days! Anyway, I used my little tiny crockpot and followed the recipe to a "T"..YUMMY! Mine looked identical to the picture and I cooked it for about the same ammount of time....I'm surprised at how quickly it cooks up! Looking forward to making it again! Thanks for the recipe!!

Hi there! Didn't know where else to turn to w/ a slow cooker question so hoping you know the answer-I found some recipes for steel cut oat oatmeal recipes. They require 6-8 hrs on low. Wondering if they would cook on high in 2-3? I think the timing of going to bed and eating breakfast won't work out for the 6-8 hr so I was hoping to try the higher temp for a brunch time breakfast. Thank you for any input you may have!

On December 27th 2013 and on January 29th 2014, took place the yearly regional pattern competitions for the central-south and central-north areas respectively.
The central-south competition in Ashdod was conducted by Sabum-Nim Luis Sajnovetzky, director of the Israel Taekwon-Do Center, while the central-north in Yoqneam was conducted by Sabum-Nim Leonardo Oros-Duek, director of the Israel Academy of Taekwon-Do.
In Yoqneam, many students from the cities Zichron Ya'akov, Yoqneam, Haifa, Kibbutz Ramot Menashe and Karmiel gathered to take part in the competition.
But this competition was no ordinary event. Out of the four rings in the hall, only two were assigned for patterns, rings 2 and 3, using a computerized scoring system, which displays the results in real-time.
Ring 1 held a special competition on which parents and their children participate together executing a frontal punch forward and backwards (Ap Jumok Jirugi). In this category participated 38 parents with their kids, that is to say 38 Taekwon-Do families!
The parents displayed patience but also unity, and showed a will to win together with their kids. Some of the parents by the way, already are regular TKD students.
In ring number 4 took place for the first time in Israel the Special Technique competition with the high flying frontal kick (Twimyo Nopi Chagi), using a device constructed especially for this event! The competition was accompanied with excitement, and wild applause was given to the competitors who created the tension from the first moment on.
In the half time a small exhibition was arranged, including a Pre-Arranged Sparring demonstration by Dorin Shteiman and Benji Greenberg, and a second-degree pattern by Carmel Horowitz and Shaked Cohen, who will be representing Israel in the European Championships in Italy, in April.
The entire competition ran on time, as the medal awarding ceremonies were carried out not long after the ending of each category. All this is thanks to the organizer Sabum-Nim Leonardo Oros-Duek (V Degree) and no less than 23 referees and assistants without which the competition was not made possible. Thanks very much also to Sabum-Nim Mario Cosacow (VI Degree) and Sabum-Nim Sergei Harchenko (V Degree).
Ranked first between the cities was Zichron Ya'akov with 16 winners, then Yoqneam with 10 winners and Haifa with 4 winners.
In Ashdod, three parallel rings were assigned for the event. Students from all over the city of Ashdod, and the nearby cities of Yavne and Rehovot came to compete. First were the 4-7 age categories. The atmosphere was nice but thrilling because for some, it was the first time competing. The youngsters demonstrated an impressive capability for the crowd of families who kept on cheering non-stop all throughout the competition.
Later competed the children aged 8+, from white to red-black belts. One could see the experience that the students have gathered with a few years of practicing and participation in previous competitions. At the end of each age category was held an awarding ceremony, during which the instructors and referees awarded trophies for first place, a silver medal for second and bronze for shared third place. The rest of the kids received a participation medal.
The purpose of the competition was to set further goals for the student in order to help him train, work harder and improve his personal technique regardless of the competitive achievement... and indeed we've succeeded! All participants behaved with respect and courtesy towards their associates as required in a Taekwon-Do ITF tournament.
We want to thank the team of instructors who worked hard with the students, in order to prepare them for this tournament and of course to the referee team who judged in a professional manner during the competition.
In conclusion - we congratulate all the participants!
You mustn't forget that competing in front of so many viewers,
Makes a challenge and learning, like any other lesson
in Taekwon-Do ITF, and this is the true victory!

SAFETEA-LU, or the Safe, Accountable, Flexible, and Efficient Transportation Equity Act: A Legacy for Users, represents the largest surface transportation investment in our nation's history.
Supervisors said they were elated to finish the final phase of the $2 million SAFETEA-LU grant project.
"From the Bolivar County Board of Supervisors perspective, SAFETEA-LU was greatly needed. It enabled the county and local municipalities to partner and deliver numerous infrastructure projects in six municipal communities within Bolivar County," said County Administrator Will Hooker.
"The Davis Street project was part of a county-wide infrastructure improvement. The federal government signed SAFETEA-LU into law in 2005.
"It was administered with oversight and compliance and monitoring by Mississippi state aid agency," said Hooker.
"SAFETEA-LU represents collaboration at all government levels; federal, state, county and municipal," he explained.
According to Hooker, Mound Bayou was given $400,000 for the project and on June 13, the American Field Service Incorporation was awarded the project, because it was the lowest and best bidding contractor.
"Congressman Thompson was happy to write the funding," said Geri Adams, field representative for Congressman Bennie G. Thompson, who could not attend the groundbreaking.
"Funding went to the towns and cities of Shaw, Mound Bayou, Gunnison, Beulah and Benoit," she said. "He really looks out for the Second Congressional District communities.
"Congressman Thompson would like to continue doing various projects throughout the Delta," said Adams.
According to county engineer Bob Eley, there will be storm drainage pipes installed, drainage inlets, concrete curbs and gutters, sidewalks on both sides of the street and an asphalt pavement.
"It took a lot of work to bring this project to where it is today. It is a good day for us and the city of Mound Bayou," said Eley.
Mound Bayou Mayor Darryl Johnson said he is ecstatic about the project and he expressed gratitude to former mayor Kennedy Johnson, former supervisor Richard Coleman and other individuals who made the Davis Street Project a reality.
"This project is a very good example of unity," said Johnson. "If no one took the initiative to make this project work, it would not have worked. We're very thankful that people are working together.
"We're going to turn this place into a place that everyone should see. It is a city that was setup on a hill and now it cannot be heeled," said Johnson.
"The project is a win, win situation for the city and county," said Supervisor Preston Billings. "We think that this project will springboard other projects, especially in Mound Bayou.
"Let's come together, stay together and work together. We want to make Bolivar County the number one county in Mississippi," added Billings.

Each fall, thousands of people from all over the world come to Maine to see the explosion of color that the New England states are famous for.
The most often asked question Richard and I get asked at the end of summer is "When is the best time to see fall colors?" Unfortunately, we cannot provide an exact answer. In general, based on our research, the peak supposedly comes in mid-October, but the best time may be anywhere from the first to the third week of the month. And some leaves start to change in late September. As October approaches and the temperatures start to cool, leaves begin to change color. The peak time of fall foliage in Maine also varies depending on weather conditions, and what part of the state you visit. Historically, however, it is typically during early to mid-October that the colors are most brilliant.
In an effort to assist our guests with the planning of their trips to see the colors here in the Boothbay Region and along the mid coast, Richard and I researched what resources were available and came to depend on a couple of sites in particular: the Maine Foliage Report (updated every Wednesday during season), Maine Department of Conservation http://www.MaineFoliage.com/ ; The Foliage Network http://www.foliagenetwork.com/; and Yankee Magazine's foliage map http://www.yankeefoliage.com/live-fall-foliage-map/
So when the call came through the Maine Innkeepers Association to sign up to be an Official Fall Foliage Spotter this year for the Foliage Network, Richard and I signed on! The Foliage Network was developed to provide accurate foliage information for various locations across the United States. During the months of September, October, and November, the Foliage Network collects data from its foliage spotters twice a week. This data is collected, plotted, analyzed by The Foliage Network and translated into a user-friendly report which can be used by travelers to find the best foliage conditions in the Northeast in CT, ME, MA, NH, NJ, NY, PA and VT; in the Southeast in MD, NC, TN, VA, and WVA; and in the Midwest in OH, MI, and WI.
Being a spotter is a lot of fun! Now I wish I could tell you it was like the "storm chasers" – you know that intrepid group of scientists and filmmakers who hunt down tornadoes to capture stunning severe weather video footage and gather valuable scientific data, but I can't. Twice a week we do hunt down foliage around our neighborhood (the Boothbay Harbor Region, the Pemaquid Peninsula and other mid- coast Maine points) and Richard does photograph the subject at hand and I do record the whereabouts of the subject at hand, and while it has rained and it has been windy on occasion, we do not have to outrun the trees.
Sometimes we even reward ourselves with the occasional cappuccino smoothie from the Maine Coast Book Shop Café http://www.mainecoastbookshop.com/ in Damariscotta or a delicious cup of herbal tea from the café at the Coastal Maine Botanical Gardens http://www.mainegardens.org/ in our own backyard.
Fall is definitely here and the much anticipated fall colors that New England is famous for are also here: pinks, reds, golds, oranges and ambers like none other. Come experience Maine in the fall and be sure to check out our "Fall Foliage Special here at HII"! Now, I must dash – it's time to go leaf-peeping …

Model Home
Designer Rafael de Cárdenas's apartment for cover girl Jessica Stam is a jewel-tone paradise with a dash of silver-screen glamour
By David Colman
There are all sorts of things people will not do for themselves. Few, for example, feel the burning urge to make their own shoes or build a laptop. And abandoned pasta machines across the land prove that, really, store-bought lasagna noodles are just fine.
But people won't be dissuaded from blithely taking on one of the toughest tasks on the planet: renovating and decorating their homes. Jessica Stam, one of fashion's hottest young faces and a favorite of photographer Steven Meisel, did exactly that with her previous apartment, in New York City's East Village. It was only after a year of arguing with contractors and agonizing over every minor furniture choice that the blue-eyed model finally crumbled.

Antique, Vintage & Classic Cars For Sale
Automobile HistoryThe Brass Car Era:The Brass Car Era started in about 1890 at the beginning of the automobile industry and lasted until about 1919. 'Brass cars' were driven by steam engines with bright brass fittings and were commonly referred to as 'horseless carriages'. Brass cars were usually made out of steel and wood. - MoreThe Electric Car Era:Thomas Davenport built the first American electric automobile in 1834 and by 1890 they were a popular form of transportation. Electric cars disappeared when John D. Rockefeller successfully encouraged Henry Ford to use gasoline engines so he would have a market for his oil products. - MoreThe Antique Car Era:The Antique Car Era started in about 1920 when backyard mechanics began putting gasoline engines in anything on wheels. The production of antique cars was enhanced by the assembly line which introduced quality control and standardized parts. The Antique Car Era thrived because of cheap gasoline. - MoreThe Vintage Car Era:The Vintage Car Era followed World War I, when there was an abundance of factories, material and equipment and men needing work. The Vintage Car Era ended in 1946 when the Great Depression and World War II ended vehicle production. Vintage cars spearheaded innovation in the auto industry. - MoreThe Classic Car Era:The Classic Car Era followed World War II. Classic car production was driven by consumer demand for bigger, faster and fancier cars. Classic cars thrived due to cheap gasoline and good roads, until pollution control laws and gas shortages stymied performance engines in the early 1970s. - MoreHot Rods & Roadsters:Hot rods evolved when back-yard mechanics found how much fun it is to customize old Model T Fords. Hot rods are custom built vehicles with high performance engines and unique drivetrains and suspension systems. When you remove the top from a hot rod you have a 'roadster'. - MoreMuscle Cars:Muscle Cars are a product of the Classic Car Era, when improved roads and the 'baby boomer' generation called for more speed and power. Muscle cars are relatively light weight, factory built, cars with big engines, such as the the Chevrolet Camaro, Pontiac GTO and Ford Mustang produced in the late 1960s. - MoreAntiqueCar.com:AntiqueCar.com was started in 2004 as a means to develop and share my interest in antique, vintage and classic cars. My goal has been to provide useful information about antique cars and trucks, vintage cars and trucks and classic cars and trucks, as well as hot rods, roadsters, fire engines and most anything else on wheels prior to the 1970's.

I know it's more complicated than it sounds, but no one knows where their potential trade partner is 'living' until AFTER accepting the trade. It would be nice to be able to check the list 1st to make sure that name isn't on it. The list of bad trader names HAS gotten severly complicated b/c of multiple names and addys, but listed by state makes it more complicated to me just b/c of the previous stated fact. Maybe you could start the ABC list with 'asterisk members', those that have had more than one username, then those w/ more than 1 addy. Then start the ABC list after that. It's just an idea that I think would help more. You don't HAVE to do it, I know you are very busy. I just wanted to put it out there b/c it may help many more members than the current configuration does.

Just bought a pair before we go on holiday - they are so comfortable - absolutely love them. I have the purple ones, only colour instore but my fav anyway!!
Sized comme prévu
Very comfortable, I wanted a different colour (bought black) from my local store, love them so much I came here to buy another pair but too many colours to decide from, wanted tan now want the orange ones!
Sized comme prévu
Everyday wear, I wear them to the office as they look like dress shoes yet are not!
Loooove these shoes, it's like wearing slippers. They fit perfectly, and without socks feel great. I can feel my entire foot in contact with the earth. Love the colour, purple, I'd love to get the sky blue also.
Sized comme prévu
going for long walks
These shoes are so comfortable, are professional enough for work but comfy enough to walk in. The only thing I can see being an issue is the stitching along the top is angled instead of staying close to the edge and one of mine is starting to curl a bit. However, I love them so much, I will just take them to a shoe repair person who can add some stitching to hold that part flatter.
Thank you for your Review. For your information; Merrell shoes are warranted for manufacturing defects one year from the date of purchase with proof. Our warranty covers all of our products against defective material and/or workmanship. We suggest that you return to the store with your shoes and proof of purchase.

On the Sunday after Thanksgiving, Ben Bernanke, the chairman of the U.S. Federal Reserve Bank, spoke on CBS' "60 Minutes." I watched, listened and walked away with the clear impression that he is really concerned about our economy's ability to move forward and beyond the issues that face us, including unemployment, mortgage defaults, the continual decline in real estate values, the threat of deflation and U.S. business' refusal to spend its large cash reserves. Bernanke expressed hope and reflected on some positive indicators, however, serious problems persist and he does not feel fully confident yet.
Since watching that interview with Bernanke, I have listened to several highly regarded, world-renowned economists who seem to think the American people are back on the path (albeit slow) to prosperity. I know it may seem like overload, but I sat and listened to Economists Michael Mussa (former head of the International Monetary Fund) and Randall Kroszner (a former Federal Reserve Governor) at the Economic Forecast Lunch put on by the University of Chicago Booth School of Business; attended a dinner with Michael Moscow, a former head of the Chicago Federal Reserve; joined a CEO roundtable group to hear Booth Professor Emeritus Robert Aliber speak; and just recently attended a dinner where former World Bank President James D. Wolfensohn spoke. I also tune into financial news on CNBC from time to time when journalists interview economists or investment strategists.
The consensus? With the exception of Ben Bernanke, economists are quite positive that the U.S. economy is back on track.
I believe Ben Bernanke has more information at his fingertips than all these other world-famous economists combined. So even though we are seeing improvements in the economy in many different areas, we should be concerned and cautious about the future.
So how does that apply to your portfolio? I recommend that you still want to have some exposure to the stock market because if you wait until all the risk is out of the market, you will have missed the rally. However, do keep some balance between stocks and other noncorrelating investments such as bonds (probably best to stay away from bond funds with rising interest rates–individual bonds might be a better choice). Keep a good year's worth of funds on the sidelines, stay well-diversified and continue to save.

Wow, this is an awesome gym motivation wallpaper.
Have you ever been working 9-5 at your desk and you just want to clock out and go home?
Well, with this wallpaper, you're going to be in a rush to clock out and turn on beast mode and hit the gym!
Big shout out to workout routines for this one
Awesome wallpaper, enjoy it!
(Click the image to download full resolution file)
P.S. – I reached out the the author of the website and wanted to know some tips from him (Hey, why not pick his brain while I can? Lol!).
He told me if you're overweight, do a full-body workout routine with limited rest in-between sets. If you're underweight and need to gain muscle, you need to be lifting heavy, but most importantly eating a lot.
And his #1 recommended workout routine is the Layne Norton phat workout. He says it's great for guys looking to get big and strong, the so much for women, though.
I don't know about you, but I have no idea what I'm doing in the gym, so I'm thankful for the tips :)… now let's hope the wallpaper is enough to motivate me to get out of my computer chair and do something productive, haha!
