I have a 10 yr old Sealy Posturepedic pillow top that I can't even sleep in anymore because of the pain it causes me. I have intermittent pain in my mid to lower back. My Chiro says I should look at a sleep number bed. What would you recommend to a 6' 195lb guy?
Hi Chuck,
What a doctor knows about mattresses, you can fit in a thimble. What your chiropractor is attracted to is the contouring support it claims to provide. There are many problems with an air mattress....not the least of them being the lack of upward support. It displaces weight, much like waterbeds did. Not only that, it doesn't hold up worth a damn.
An individually pocketed coil mattress provides the contouring support you doctor wants you to have...but also provides the upward support your spine requires. The Simmons Beautyrests and the Stearns & Fosters have this type of coil system. Stay away from pillowtops and anything that seems soft to you.
And the next time you see your chiropractor, tell him to stay out of the mattress business. He sucks at it. His recommendations will cause more harm to his patients than he realizes.

Hello, All: I don't have the benefit of a GUI CD-burner - I have to use mkisofs+cdrecord. Is there any possibility that the stages could be distributed as ISO images instead of tarballs? After all, aren't the tarballs just meant to be burned to CD anyway? -- Eric P. Sunnyvale, CA -- email@example.com mailing list

Dental amalgam is considered a safe, affordable and durable material that has been used to restore the teeth of more than 100 million Americans. It contains a mixture of metals such as silver, copper and tin, in addition to mercury, which binds these components into a hard, stable and safe substance. Dental amalgam has been studied and reviewed extensively, and has established a record of safety and effectiveness. Read the American Dental Association's full policy statement.
Amalgam Management Practices for Dental Offices
The Washington State Department of Ecology and the Washington State Dental Association collaborated in 2004 to help dental offices properly control dental office wastes. By implementing the jointly developed Best Management Practices (BMPs), including installation of amalgam separators, dentists prevent discharging mercury, silver, and other dangerous wastes into the environment.
In 2005 and 2006 Ecology and county environmental staff visited dental offices to verify that they were following the BMPs.

§ 91-7-103. Summary proceeding for discovery of assets.
If the goods, chattels, and effects are improperly withheld from the executor or administrator, then he shall not be answerable for a failure to return the inventories herein required until the goods, chattels, and effects, or some part thereof, have been received.

No decree shall be rendered in such proceeding concerning any adverse claim set up by any person to any of the assets. The costs of such proceeding shall be borne by the estate.

Hi Everyone,
Recently I got a leaf of a very beautiful rhizomatous begonia with velvety leaves - does anyone have an idea what this hybrid's name is?
Thank you! Michael |

- Posted by hcmcdole z7 (email@example.com) on Wed, Jan 19, 11 at 18:26
It is a rex begonia but too young of a leaf to tell. Have you got any pictures of the full plant? If you are trying to propagate it I would push the stem all the way into the soil. |
Oh, the leaf is fully grown, it is not a rex but a small rhizomatous one - the adult leaves on the big plant were no more than 6 or 7 cm. I just got this leaf s cannot post a photo of a frown plant (yet). I rooted the leaf in water, and as small rhizomes are forming at the base of the petiole I did not want to bury them too deep. Still I'd be happy for any advice! p.s. are there rex begonias with a velvety leaf surface? I have never seen such but it would be a great thing! |
- Posted by hcmcdole z7 (email@example.com) on Thu, Jan 20, 11 at 4:08
Yes there are many rexes with velvet like leaves and many dwarf or miniature rexes too. Mini-Merry for example. As for rooting I see there are signs of new growth at the leaf/petiole union which are usually very good signs of rex heritage. |
Wow, thanks, it seems like I still have to learn a lot about these Begonias - I just knew the old-fashioned large Begonia rex but will see that that changes. Are those red things signs of new growth? And will there be growing tips at that place? Actually, I can't remember if they have been there or formed, but the other end of the petiole has a lot of roots already and tiny rhizomes forming. |
- Posted by hcmcdole z7 (email@example.com) on Thu, Jan 20, 11 at 13:51
Yes the red things are signs of new growth. Rexes are not the only leaf to do this but most other rhizo begonias don't exhibit the same behavior. Here is an exception: U475 This is a rex that I don't remember the name of but it was rooted in water: I think these two leaves are from Begonia 'Peace' |
Wow, amazing, thanks for sharing! At the moment I potted the leaf in a way that most of the Petiole is not in the soil - will die adventive plantlets still sprout out of the leaf or do they need contact with the soil? I wonder if I should plant the whole thing vertically, so that both plantlets at the lower end of the petiole and the ones at the leaf base are in contact with soil though not buried? I wonder why it took me so long to start again with Begonias....they are such amazing plants! |
- Posted by hcmcdole z7 (firstname.lastname@example.com) on Fri, Jan 21, 11 at 13:24
Lots of questions there. Some begonia leaves will root in air if the humidity is high enough yet others will rot or dry up. As for pushing the petiole all the way in the soil and keep the plantlets alive at the cut - well that depends on how long the petiole is and what the media is composed of. If it was straight perlite I'd say you wouldn't have a problem. If it is heavy soil and the petiole is more than an inch long then you might smother the growth you already have. What I would do now is let the plantlets get a little larger, then cut the petiole close to the soil and trim it to about an inch long, then push the petiole in some more quality potting mix or perlite, and let the plantlets at the petiole union get rooted. Some growers can use the same leaf many times over (depends on how many plants you really want). |
Thank you for your good advice! Meanwhile, I dug out most of the petiole and arranged it in a way that the petiole is almost vertical on the soil surface and the leaf blade is close to the soil - maybe that way I can encourage growth of both growing centers. Potting it into perlite is an Idea I should have had myself - maybe I should repot it into that medium? I'll keep you updated and want to thank you for the great advice! Michael |

Annual Holiday Art Sale Dec. 5-9
Holiday shoppers hungry for bargains will strike gold (and fibers and prints and photos) when the Art Department's 36th annual holiday sale returns to CSULB. More than 2,000 works in pottery, ceramics, woodwork, jewelry, photography, metalsmithing and printmaking made by CSULB students, faculty, staff, and alumni will go on sale beginning at 4 p.m. on Sunday, Dec. 5, and then from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. through Thursday, Dec. 9, in the Art Department's gallery complex on upper campus. A significant share of the proceeds helps support Art Department student scholarships and travel, explains Art Professor Tony Marsh, one of the sale's organizers and a member of CSULB's class of 1978. This is a wonderful event for us, said Marsh, who joined the university in 1988. Every year, we send students all over the world with scholarship money. CSULB Ceramics majors have over the years been sent to Iceland, Mainland China, Tibet, Bali, Portugal, Spain, Germany, France, England, and Italy to look at art or work with an artist." Shoppers will have their pick of vases, bowls, mugs, and holiday artworks along with textiles, prints, and jewelry. Prices for individual pieces are affordable. Cash and checks will be accepted. Shoppers and collectors show up on Sunday hours ahead of time, said Marsh.That's when the best deals are found. We have customers who have been attending for 20 years. Prices are reasonable and the works are original. It gets better every year. If you are interested in things made by hand, as opposed to the mass-produced factory manufactures made anonymously, you are going to find what you're looking for at prices you won't believe, said Marsh. The Art Department Holiday Sale takes place in the CSULB Art Department Galleries and courtyard, located between Fine Arts buildings 2 and 3 on the southeastern section of the CSULB campus. Parking for the sale is available in Lot 7, just south of the Theater Arts Department and visible from the Seventh Street and East Campus Drive intersection. From the lot, patrons are asked to follow the directional signs to the sale. Complimentary parking will be provided during opening night only. More information is available by calling Marsh at 562/985-4359 or by contacting him via e-mail . |

Then you should have booked the cruise. Tough luck.
They call me "Nana"
IWBM, you have the corner on the door decorating contest, I'm definitely out. You can't send those things out 48 before I'm due to leave and expect me to pull it off. No way!
I want to have Friday evening to just sort of relax and get last minute things ready... I want to go to bed in a relaxed frame of mind. I don't want to be all wound up and be "all tense" the next day.
To all who come to this happy place; welcome. Disneyland is your land. Here age relives fond memories of the past...and here youth may savor the challenge and promise of the future. Disneyland is dedicated to the ideals, the dreams and the hard facts that have created America...with the hope that it will be a source of joy and inspiration to all the world.
Hey guys! Glad to see everyone getting ready to head on down and get on board! I spoke to the cruise people again and think you will really enjoy some of the great events and surprises in store!
Now, I have to share some unfortunate news that I hoped and prayed would not have been necessary. I don't want to bring anyone down or cast a shadow on what will be an amazing time no matter what, but here's what's going on with me and why I have been unable to get on here as much as of late.
In addition to me and my wife and kids coming on the cruise, my mother in law was going to come as well. She was diagnosed with cancer of the uterus two years ago, had seemed to beat it before it came back earlier this year. Although she was continuing treatment at Sloane-Kettering, she was planning on coming up until a couple of weeks ago. Without going into detail, she was physically unable to go, although my family and I were planning on still going. Two weeks ago she took a sudden turn for the worse. In the days that followed, it looked as though my wife and kids would not be able to come under the circumstances. In the last week, that became a certainty. But supportive and loving wife that I had, she told me that I could not stay to be with her and her mom, and that I needed to be on the ship for the cruise. Needless to say, this has been an incredibly difficult couple of weeks for me not only because of what's happening to my MIL and wife, but the timing with the cruise.
In the last couple of days, she has turned a sharp corner for the worse, and it's only because of that change in circumstances that I am making this post. It does not appear as though she may last the day, or couple of days at most. I now struggle with the fact that the wake, funeral, etc. may very well be on Friday or Saturday.
That being said, I want you all to know that although my family won't be with me, I am planning on coming if the timing allows me to. I have spoken at great length with the cruise people and agency, and while they have been supportive of my need to be with my family, I also understand that I have an obligation to be with all of you and everyone else that booked the cruise because of when and why the group was put together. I make this post here and now so that when the time comes on board or at the port, I don't have to bring up what is obviously a topic that does not make for a fun day at sea.
I know that the love and support, prayers and thoughts of all of you are with us, and for that I thank you. I did not make this post for any other reason than that I felt an obligation to you all to keep you all apprised of what was going on from my end. I also want to thank you in advance for understanding and appreciating what is a very difficult time and decision for me because of the cruise. I have already looked into trying to join the cruise in progress from Key West, etc. but that is not a possibility for security reasons, etc.
So at this point I want you all to know that I am planning on coming alone, in hopes that events fall into place in the next day or so that will allow me to do so.
I will do my best to keep everyone informed as to what happens over the course of the next few days. Thank you for understanding and I hope that if the timing of the events over the next few days forces me to make a choice to be with my wife and family for these services, that you will understand and forgive me if i cannot make it onboard. Again, I am so sorry to have to make this post. I hope to see you all on Saturday.
Lou Mongello
Host, Author & Site Owner
That is awful news. We won't hold it against you if you can't make it. We understand and are very sorry for the circumstances. Our prayers will be with you and your family.
They call me "Nana"
I am praying for you and your family and you need to be with them at this time. I thought you seemed a little "low key" about the cruise here on the boards and now I can see why. I'll be sending all the best prayers and wishes that I can possibly send, but you do what you need to do. There is nothing more important than family.
To all who come to this happy place; welcome. Disneyland is your land. Here age relives fond memories of the past...and here youth may savor the challenge and promise of the future. Disneyland is dedicated to the ideals, the dreams and the hard facts that have created America...with the hope that it will be a source of joy and inspiration to all the world.
Lou, my heart goes out to Deanna and your entire family.
Thinking of you and your family, Lou.
Thank you everyone for your thoughts and prayers.
I wanted to let you all know that last night, Deanna's mother lost her battle and passed on. She, and all of us, made our peace and we know she is in a better place. And even though she didn't quite make it, we know that she is relaxing on her own lounge chair in the sun, drinking her Pina Colada.
As for the cruise, the timing unfortunately couldn't have been worse. Because of when she passed last night, her wake couldn't be until tomorrow, and the funeral and mass on Saturday. And while I tried desperately to see if I could make the funeral and the cruise, it is an impossibility.
BUT!!..... we make lemonade from lemons when we can....
Although I cannot get on the ship in the first post (Key West) due to certain regulations and restrictions (although GalaxSea and Disney have done all in their powers to do so, including getting the President on the DCL involved.. will tell that story onboard), we WILL be able to join everyone on Tuesday in Grand Cayman!!!
Yes, I saw WE, as my wife, who desperately needs to "get away", and kids will be coming on! We are flying to Grand Cayman on Monday and getting on board when the ship docks on Tuesday. And while we may miss a few days with everyone, we are looking forward to being there. I'm sorry I can't be there for the entire trip, but I'm glad that my family will be able to join me when we go!
THANK YOU all again for being so understanding and supportive. It means a great deal to us all, and we look forward to meeting and seeing you all on Tuesday.
Have safe trips to Port Canaveral, and enjoy your first few days at sea (someone PLEASE have a sloppy joe at Sloppy Joe's on Key West for me!!)
Bon Voyage!!!!! and thanks again...
Lou Mongello
Host, Author & Site Owner
Dear Lou & Deanna (hope I'm not being too familiar as I haven't met either of you yet), but I want to extend my deepest condolences to you both and to your whole family. What a difficult time this must be for everyone.
I'm glad arrangements could be made that you could join us in Grand Cayman! Somehow I'm not surprised you took this matter to the top. I am also glad that the whole family is able to come along. Somehow Lou, I know you would not have had a very good time without your wife and kids. We will save y'all lounge chairs and sunshine.
Best thoughts,
SamIAm 717
To all who come to this happy place; welcome. Disneyland is your land. Here age relives fond memories of the past...and here youth may savor the challenge and promise of the future. Disneyland is dedicated to the ideals, the dreams and the hard facts that have created America...with the hope that it will be a source of joy and inspiration to all the world.
Hey Lou and Deanna--I'm really sorry to hear of your loss. If thoughts and sympathy help, know that you have them from us in abundance.
Hope you all have a great and restorative cruise!
Dear Lou and Deanna,
I am so sorry for the loss of Deanna's mother. I know her absence will leave a hole in your lives. We look forward to meeting you on Tuesday.
Our deepest sympathy,
Ed and T-Nina
They call me "Nana"
Deanna and Lou, my deepest sympathy for your loss. I know you will take great comfort in the fact that she is no longer suffering.
I'm sure that you are doing exactly what she would want you guys to do. Glad that it's all going to work out and that they will be able to let you guys embark in Grand Cayman! That's great news! Have a wonderful and much needed vacation! I assure you that spending time with T-Nina will be a cure all! She'll have you laughing and smiling in no time!

Israel, Buy American!
One way to improve U.S. relations
A Jerusalem think tank suggested that Israel start buying cars made in the good ol' U.S. of A., rather than in Europe or Japan (as it currently does, generally), as it replenishes old cars in its government's 50,000-vehicle fleet. Not necessarily because American cars are better—ALTHOUGH YOU'RE DARN TOOTIN' THEY ARE!—but because it would be good for the countries' relations. Plus, if they buy enough Chevys, maybe Eminem will play Ramat Gan, too.

found a new home!
Plenty of my friends are looking
for one too. Find a pet to adopt.
Find a pet to adopt |
My name is Persephone!
Facts about Persephone
- Breed: Calico
- Color: Calico Or Dilute Calico
- Age: Adult
- Sex: Female
- Hair: Long
Persephone's Info...
I am already spayed and up to date with shots.
I am a Shelter Pull Kitty! This means that when you adopt me, FOF can save another kitty from a high kill county shelter.'
Persephone was born in May 2011. Last fall we pulled her and her 4 kittens from a high kill county shelter in Allegan. Within a week mama came down with the deadly distemper (panleukopenia) virus, and all 4 kittens died. Horribly sad but a reality of rescue work.
Persephone became mildly ill and after a few days of fluids she recovered (most otherwise healthy adult cats will survive distemper). She was very hand shy from the start and it has taken months to get her to warm up. We transferred her from foster care to our adoption center and she is continuing to make progress socially. While not a cat who will greet you upon entering the room, she does enjoy tummy rubs and chin scratches! She also adores our cat mountain cat tree, and can usually be found cozied up in one of the tunnels
.Persephone was once a burden to someone, not important enough to spay before she became pregnant, and then dumped into a shelter with her 4 helpless babies. She has survived much and now we want to begin her final (and happiest) chapter by finding her a loving home.
All of our kittens are spayed or neutered, tested for FeLV/FIV, vaccinated against Distemper, and treated for fleas and other parasites.
If you are interested in adopting one of our kittens, please CLICK HERE to fill out an Adoption Application. Our adoption fee is $85 for one kitten and $125 for two. For cats over 1 year we have a donation based adoption fee. ($50 minimum) Donate what you can to us and then use your savings to go buy all your fun kitty supplies.
Our adoption center is located at 4600 Knapp NE 49525. Our open adoption hours are every Thursday 6-8pm and Sunday from 12-2pm. Come on out and meet the love of your life!
'Our adoption facility houses 35 kitties. The rest are in foster homes. If you want to meet a specific kitty, please inquire with us before attending an adoption event, so we can make every effort to have the requested kitties available!'
Monthly we will hold different adoption events and specials. Click NOW for the exciting details!
For questions or more information you can also email email@example.com.

Why Adoption is a Great Option
Persephone, a Byron Center Calico cat was adopted! Here's how you can benefit by looking at adoption as an option to buying a Calico for sale in Byron Center, or seeking a Calico cat from a breeder in Byron Center.
- Rescues and shelter volunteers in Byron Center already know the personality and tendencies of their pets. This means they can match you with the right pet. That will makes it much easier transition to owning a pet for yourself and your new pet.
- On average adoption fees are much less than you'd pay a Byron Center breeder, or pet store. Plus most often rescue pets have already been to the veterinarian for a check-up, had a round of vaccinations, and are spayed or neutered. That is a lot of savings!
- You will become a hero, and give a needy dog or cat a loving home. In fact, there are even Calico breeders who help with Calico rescue. One puppy or kitten adopted in Byron Center paves the way for another one to be saved.

ok sorry about all that then, please disregard the last post. You can keep Ad-Aware SE Personal Edition then with out issue. |

It was just DH and I and I had had a busy day with yard work but I did find time to set a simple Halloween table. I bought the napkins and the sparkly spider web tablecloth on clearance at Kohl's last year. The napkin rings were a thrift store find and reminded me of snakes. The silver chargers came from Target dollar spot. The plates are paper and were clearance finds at HL last year. I purchased the Jack O' Lantern, boa, books and candlesticks when I went thrifting with Christmas Candy a few weeks ago. The candlesticks were originally white but I spray painted them with flat black with Halloween in mind. I notice CC and I found the same book and used in our decor :) Please pardon the quality of the photos. I took the pictures with my Iphone.

Luvs, Nope I did this Sunday for our Halloween dinner. I am still enjoying my deals found while shopping with the thrift store queen, CC. DH did enjoy the table as well as the special meal I prepared, roasted beast w/ fall veggies(roast beef)with bats brains (cauliflower)in a dijon cheese sauce and mashed ghost guts (potatoes) with vampire gravy (red wine gravy) :) Kath |

Kath, I also love the title of that one book. LOL. And the boa on the Jack's head, makes him look like a Punk Rocker. (I find them scary too, LOL). I cracked up over your menu wording, that would have sent my DH running for nearest fast food place. Such fun, everything! |

Good for you, maxi...your Halloween table looks very inviting & the menu sounds wonderful! That web cloth is cool for Halloween...& your finds shopping with candy are fun! TFS! Jeanne S. |
Kath, great to see your new finds and I enjoyed seeing all your other tables too. You have so many pretty dishes that I couldn't resist browsing and enjoying. Thanks. Punk |

Karen, DH is such a good sport :) He was actually helping to come up with names for the food :) I balked at anything he wanted to use the word "pus" in LOL! Jeanne, I wish I could use that cloth for other 'scapes as it is really pretty IRL....hmmm...maybe I'll incorporate it into our anniversary tablescape?? LOL! And shopping w/ CC was such a thrill. Ahh Punk, thanks for looking at my other tablescapes :) I don't have to explain to anyone here the dish obsession we each fall victim to :) I am super excited as I have found my dream dining table and will be going at lunch today to pick it up. We will eventually be turning our never used formal living room into a dedicated dining room. The future tablescaping I will be able to do kept me up most of the night! Kath |
Kath....Cute tablesetting for your 'Halloween Meal. I agree with Jeanne your web tablecloth is cool, and a great color. It's also different from what we've been seeing. Love the Book Title....very funny. I peeked at your other photos too, and enjoyed your pretty settings. TFS jane |
Kath, what a fun table!!! The menu was great. The title of the book is cute, my DGD had it, the title is cute the story ---not so much. I peeked at your other pictures also very,very nice. Looking forward to seeing your next creation. Can't wait to see your new dining room table! NanaKaren |

Controversy Marks LIFEbeat's Reggae Gold Fundraiser Published July 12, 2006 Activists are up in arms over the Raggae Gold concert's lineup which includes two artists known for past anti-gay lyrics.
LIFEbeat, an organization dedicated to reaching America's youth about HIV/AIDS prevention, has been facing criticism for the lineup of their upcoming Reggae Gold concert. Activists are up in arms because of the choice to include two artists known for past anti-gay lyrics.
Jamaican dancehall artists Beenie Man and the group T.O.K are scheduled to perform July 18 at New York City's Webster Hall. However, activists are pushing for LIFEbeat to drop the artists from the bill or force them to publicly denounce their controversial song lyrics.
While LIFEbeat rejects the anti-gay lyrics of its performers, they still feel that the hugely popular acts will be able to reach an otherwise inaccessible audience.
In response to the uproar, LIFEbeat has issued a statement backing their decision to include such controversial artists. While reiterating that they "do not condone anti-gay lyrics or violence against anyone," they still "strongly believe that dialogue opens doors, creating the opportunity for enlightenment, growth and change amongst all involved."
While both Beenie Man and T.O.K. have released anti-gay songs, they have since issued statements through their publicists regarding the public criticism. Beenie Man said: "Aids is an epidemic that doesn't discriminate. It's not a gay or a straight thing, it is a fight for life, and I'm proud to stand with LIFEbeat in the fight against a disease that exists regardless of one's sex, race or sexual orientation."
While the statement is not the public denunciation that the activists had hoped for, it appears the dialogue has already shown that the artists have matured and will continue to exhibit growth and change.

The Spark Socket is a handy device for light bulbs that allow them to be controlled wirelessly by smartphones. While individuals become much more tech-savvy, it is interesting to note the lack of advancements in the home. That is because such technology is often too expensive to even consider. Not everyone can be a real life Tony Stark. That said, with the advent of networked gadgets, cheaper alternatives such as the Spark Socket are on the rise.
Designed by Minneapolis-based Scot Herbst, the Spark Socket is a Wi-Fi adapter that fits in any existing light socket. Completely with a color-coded system when in place, the Spark Socket informs people of its current status. Aside from switching on and off the light, if paired with a dimmable bulb, the Spark Socket could be programmed to act as an alarm as well.

In the ongoing gun control debate, the same argument often comes up: nobody gets shot at the gun range. Here are five incidents of deaths, both accidental and intentional, at gun ranges across the U.S.
What was billed as a weekend of supervised family fun at this Westfield, Mass., gun range turned into a family nightmare when 8 year old Christopher Bizilj accidently shot himself in the head while firing an Uzi submachine gun. The owner of the range, former police chief Edward Fleury, was charged in Bizilj's death.
A Detroit woman was fatally shot in the chest Sunday after hugging an off-duty police officer. According to Detroit police, Adaisha Miller was celebrating her 25th birthday a day early. She was dancing at a party when she came up to off-duty officer Issac Parrish attending the party and hugged him from behind. His holster gun discharged accidentally and shot Miller in the chest, piercing her lung and heart.

Rendering Lard in a Crock Pot
I have been meaning to render lard but kept putting it off because I wasn't sure I could get it right. I want to use it in my baking and cooking and since we have been hosting a Civil War event for kids I've been noticing that some of the recipe's from the Civil war era require lard. I decided now would have to be the time to try rendering.
I did a little research online after I had an unsuccessful attempt at rendering the lard on the stove. I didn't turn out bad it just tasted a little too much like bacon. I don't really want a pie that tastes like bacon!
I found this wonderfully easy way to render the lard in a crock pot at . It turned out beautifully! Using a crock pot made the process so much easier. The chances of you burning it are quite slim since the crock pot keeps it at the perfect temperature.
Also, you don't have to deal with grease getting all over the stove.
Put a 1/4 cup of water in the bottom of the crock pot. Then, cut off enough lard to fill the crock pot.
Put the crock pot on low. Cover and wait till the lard starts to melt.
This took me about 2 hours.
It looked like this when it was finished........
Take some cheesecloth and place it over a strainer which is placed over a bowl.
Pour the contents of the crock pot into the strainer. The lard will flow through the cheese cloth and into the bowl.
Pour the lard directly into a clean mason jar. You can keep the crackling's or throw them away.
Let the lard cool and put it in the frig.
It will turn out a beautiful white! So much different then on the stove!
In the picture above, the jar on the left is from the crock pot, the jar on the right is from the stove.
The crock pot lard has basically no smell to it. The stove rendered lard smells a bit bacon-y.
A beautiful white!
Time to start baking!!

OK..this is my first post so please be patient with me. I have an 11 y/o SD and a 12 y/o SS. Their mother is difficult and it's very hard dealing with her. The most recent issue is that the SS has once again brought home poor grades. This child is perfectly capable of getting good grades and demonstrates this by bringing the grade up atleast 2 marks by the next grading period. He needs punishing. BM is inconsistent with her consequences for the bad grades and here we are again. He was both punished,no video games until the grade was brought up, and lectured by his father the last time this happened. SS didn't want to visit this weekend because he knew dad would be mad (as he should be, SS failing because he won't bring home or do homework). BM told SS he had to visit anyway. I told BM that he would be spending the weekend in his room without TV or video games and she replied that we had no right to punish him since we have very little involvement in his upbringing. Excuse me but she is forcing SS over here despite the fact that he doesn't want to come and now says we can't punish him. Am I missing something here? |

"I told BM that he would be spending the weekend in his room without TV or video games" I think this is honestly a little harsh. I am all for a child having consequences but I think spending the weekend in his room is a little much. I would take away the tv and video games, but not isolate him from his family all weekend long. I think BM and DH need to be on the same page regarding behavior and consequences. Easier said than done, I know. I also think your life will be a lot less stressful if you let DH and BM handle these issues. |
- Posted by gabbiegrl1 (My Page) on Fri, Feb 27, 09 at 10:50
I was a little angry when I wrote my email. Sorry :( We would never make the child stay in his room all weekend. We are going to take the games and TV from him. And, yes, I know DH should be handling these conversations with the BM, but realistically that doesn't always work for some divorced couples. There is very little conversation between she and I and, usually, it's very short and to the point. No side bar conversation, just the facts and that's it. So, back to my question. Do you think that grounding at our house is reasonable? |
- Posted by justnotmartha (My Page) on Fri, Feb 27, 09 at 13:02
Honestly, if it's reasonable or not isn't the true problem. If mom and dad aren't on the same page and mom makes dad into the bad guy for holding SS accountable little is accomplished and no real point is made to SS. We run into this time and again with my SD's non-custodial mom - we'll ALL agree to a consequence and then she will either 'forget' about it or just flat out tell SD it doesn't have to be that way at her house and to not tell dad. Not only does this kind of behavior do nothing to encourage the kids to do better, it sends the message that grades (or whatever) aren't as important as mom and dad's feud with each other. By no means am I saying bad grades due to poor effort should go without a consequence, but if it's not effective then what is the point? Is it possible to talk to BM, discuss his lack of effort and together work out a plan to motivate him to do better? |
- Posted by deborah_ps (My Page) on Fri, Feb 27, 09 at 23:54
Notjustmartha, I sooo agree with what you're relaying. I never understood punishments that don't fit the crime. And you're right about finding what will motivate him to do better, because if you don't know what that is, no matter what you "do" to him, the outcome won't be satisfactory. |

Bike To Work Week was just a few weeks ago. Rodale.com asked me to do a video to be posted that week that would address the major excuses why people don't want to commute by bike. Now that BTW week is over I'd like to remind everyone that commuting is something we should try to do every week during the year. I realize that not everyone can commute by bike; sometimes it's just not possible. But, if you're on the edge and you have some concerns about travel time, showering, clothing, bike storage, etc. hopefully some of the tips in the video can help.
To make it more fun, in the video, Rick Chillot and I had a little contest wager going. He drove to work and I biked to work. You'll have to watch the video to see who won and what the prize was.

Verse 1:
There was a time when
Broken hearts and broken dreams
Were over.
There was a place where
All you could do was
Wish on a four leaf clover.
But now is a new time
There is a new place
Where dreams just can't come true.
It started the day when i left you [oh]
I could never love again the way that i loved you [oh]
I could never cry again like i did when i left you
And when we said goodbye….
Oh the look in your eyes
Just left me beside myself without your heart [without your heart]
I could never love again now that we're apart
Verse 2:
When i was sorry
It was too late to turn around [turn around]
And tell you so.
There was no reason
There was no reason
Just a foolish beat of my heart.
Oh…. can't you see i'm not fooling nobody
Don't you see the tears are falling down my face
Since you went away
Break my heart…. you slipped away
Didn't know i was wrong
Never meant to hurt you now you're gone
Do do do do do do
I could never love again now that we're apart.
[now that we're apart] oh
I could never love again now that we're apart.

We may have met an old acquaintance during the early games, and we discovered a new, really cool friend too. If you make a waiver claim on him this week, Brandon Bolden could be like the kid on the block who was the first to get a Nintendo complete with Duck Hunt.
Before we get to Bolden, let's explore the revival of an old friendship. We used to laugh and break bread with Chris Johnson, but prior to today he mostly just made us want to break stuff that definitely isn't edible.
Oh, hello there Chris Johnson
We rarely go a day around here without lamenting the demon running back that is Chris Johnson. And even if I'm not doing it openly here as a form of healthy, therapeutic cleansing, I was mumbling to myself in public, during showers, and during sleep. As a CJ1.4YPC owner, my existence is consumed by a first-round pick who either doesn't see running lanes anymore, or just chooses to ignore them out of the hatred he has for us all.
So then today in his worst matchup of the season so far against a Houston defense that was allowing only 67.7 yards per game thus far prior to today, he rushed for 141 yards, adding 16 more with two catches. He did that after having only 45 rushing yards through three games, meaning with a quarter of the season now complete, 75 percent of Johnson's rushing yards for the season came today, in one game. He also did this only two weeks after he had 17 yards on eight carries, and three weeks after four yards on 11 carries. No typo.
Worst of all, he did it after most of us (*points at self*) benched him due to both his brutal matchup, and our disgust and loss of patience. No, that decision wasn't an over reaction, and you shouldn't feel regret or shame. We play a game where hindsight is an annoyance akin to a friend who constantly asks questions and then answers them in conversation (the worst). Johnson's fall is well documented, and it goes beyond just the first three weeks of this season after he averaged 65.4 yards per game last year, which was significantly down from the 125.4 he maintained during his record-breaking 2009 season.
So what do we make of Johnson's performance today? Is it a worthy excuse to TYPE IN ALL CAPS AND DECLARE THAT JOHNSON IS BACK BABY?!!!!1 Well, let's consider the circumstances, and a few other numbers. He received more carries after Jake Locker went down in the first quarter, and his workload remained high despite the lopsided score in a blowout (Houston won 38-14), and the Titans' need to pass and claw back. He finished with 25 carries.
Looking back on that magical and seemingly mystical 2009 season again, there were nine games when Johnson averaged 5.6 or more yards per carry, as he did today. So he showed a glimpse of his old form, which is exciting and it gets blood to flow into many areas of the body. The 2012 Johnson doesn't come without some discouragement, though, so bear in mind that his impressive per carry average today was still achieved with a bit of plodding and not much blazing speed, which still wasn't very Chris Johnson of him.
His longest run today was 19 yards, whereas in 2009 his average long run per game was 38.5 yards. But still, be happy, and be jovial, because progress.
Matt Ryan: The bad, and the ridiculously good
Sacks are often the responsibility of an offensive line, but the quarterback plays a role too. He has to make better reads to shift the pass protection, or get the ball out faster, or side step blitzers, and while no one will confuse Ryan for Cam Newton — the quarterback he opposed today — he's still athletic enough to avoid rushers and move in the pocket.
That's why it's alarming that Ryan took seven sacks today, 3.5 at the hands of Charles Johnson. Through the first three weeks he had only taken four, and last year he averaged only 1.6 per game. This is almost surely an outlier, but it's still at least mildly concerning that a defense was able to bring Ryan down seven times. So hopefully both Ryan and the Falcons' offensive line aren't reverting to the form they showed last year when the QB was sacked 13 times over the first three games.
But that's admittedly finding a tiny blemish on the Mona Lisa. Ryan's heave to Roddy White will officially show up in the boxscore as a 59-yard pass that led to Matt Bryant's game-winning field goal in the dying seconds to keep the Falcons undefeated. But unofficially, it was about 65 yards since Ryan let loose from at least six yards deep in his own end zone.
It was Ryan's third successful one-minute drill to win a game, and only Dan Marino and Mark Sanchez have more. What's more remarkable than Ryan's brilliance is that we have a legitimate reason to mention Sanchez's name in the same sentence as Marino's, which feels morally wrong.
Ryan finished with 369 passing yards and three touchdowns with an interception, continuing his ascent to elite fantasy status with plenty of tools at disposal. But the absence of one of his weapons today is still concerning.
We still haven't located Julio Jones
At halftime of the Panthers-Falcons game I wrote about Julio Jones, and his AWOL status on live boxscores in any meaningful capacity. As I wrote, I knew the potential for a wasted effort was high with the likelihood that Jones would explode in the second half. But like world traveler Carmen San Diego and her band of henchmen who are responsible for the fact that I will always be able to identify Kathmandu's flag, Jones seemed to be lost at the time, so some exploration was needed.
Surely he would re-appear and render my halftime words and worries useless, yes? Nope.
Jones finished with only one reception. The good news is that it was a 30-yard reception, but the bad news is that it was one reception, and didn't come until midway through the fourth quarter. He was still targeted seven times, which is encouraging and gives you reason to remove your head from the toilet. Last week when Jones had five receptions for 67 yards and a touchdown, he was also targeted seven times.
But a play he didn't make was especially discouraging. What would have been a +40-yard bomb with less than three minutes left and the Falcons pushing for the win and down by one was an incompletion when Jones jumped to catch the ball and came down with one foot in bounds, with plenty of space to drag the second foot in too. To be fair, it wasn't an easy catch, but to be fairer to your delusions, it was a catch a wide receiver of his caliber makes routinely.
Thankfully for Falcons fans, a potentially crushing misplay will be forgotten due to Ryan's brilliance. But fantasy owners were robbed of what would have been about an 80-yard day because Jones couldn't make a catch that was well within his abilities.
Who the hell is Brandon Bolden?
The simple answer is that he's a running back, and he's surely a nice man. But he plays for the New England Patriots, and with Bill Belichick and running backs, there are no simple answers.
The undrafted rookie out of Ole Miss had only 15 yards on seven carries through three weeks. Which means we should have expected Belichick to do something so very Belichickian on a day when he also had us worrying about Rob Gronkowski's playing status. Even with Steven Ridley healthy, and even with his presumed backup Shane Vereen also with his limbs in tact, Bolden was given the ball 16 times.
The result? 137 rushing yards and a touchdown, for an absurd pace of 8.7 yards per carry. While Ridley was also rolling and still produced, he needed 22 carries to finish with 31 fewer yards (106) while scoring twice. That's a much lesser pace of 4.8 per carry.
All that adds up to Vereen's definite fade into oblivion, and the death of Ridley's status as the unquestioned top option in the Pats' backfield. A split or at least a time share of some kind will most likely develop going forward, so Ridley owners would be wise to invest in some insurance and guard against the unpredictability of a Belichick RB depth chart by making a waiver claim on Bolden this week.

PROVIDENCE, R.I. — The Rhode Island State Police and National Weather Service are advising drivers to stay off the roads, if possible, as heavy snow moves through the region.
Snow falling at a rate of 1 to 2 inches per hour is limiting visibility to one quarter of a mile or less and leading to dangerous travel conditions across parts of northern Rhode Island and eastern Massachusetts, the Weather Service says in a special weather statement issued at 2:31 p.m.
The Rhode Island State Police say they've responded to numberous accidents on roads slickened by snow.
The Weather Service says, "Conditions will improve from south to north late this afternoon and evening. Traveling will be safer once the snow has ended this evening. Stay off the roads until the snow ends, if possible."
Northern and central Rhode Island could get 2 to 4 inches of snow today, according to the Weather Service.
The storm comes at a time when the state says it's running low on salt to treat the roads.
"Motorists need to be especially careful on bridges and overpasses where slippery spots can easily develop," the Weather Service says.
A winter weather advisory is in effect for northern and central Rhode Island until 8 p.m. It includes Foster, Smithfield, Providence, West Greenwich and Warwick.
Cities and towns to the south and east of Route 95, especially along the south coasts of Rhode Island and Massachusetts, are likely to see a switchover to rain for at least part of the afternoon, the Weather Service says.
"This is a quick-moving snowstorm with snowfall not starting until after 8 a.m. in the west and 10 a.m. in the east and coming to an end by 8 p.m. this evening for most, if not all, locations," the Weather Service says in its forecast discussion.
The high temperature should reach 35 degrees in the Providence area. The wind will blow from the southeast at 6 to 13 mph.
