Dairy Crest Group plc is a leading British dairy products company. Its brands include Cathedral City Cheddar cheese, Country Life butter and milk, Utterly Butterly, Vitalite, Clover and Frijj. The company delivers milk to around 715,000 households via their milk&more doorstep delivery business. It is listed on the London Stock Exchange and is a constituent of the FTSE 250 Index.
Dairy Crest was established in 1981 as the processing arm of the Milk Marketing Board.[3] In 1983 the company launched Clover, its dairy spread.[3]
In 1991, the company established a joint venture with French dairy company Yoplait called Yoplait Dairy Crest (often abbreviated to YDC) which is 51% owned by Yoplait and 49% by Dairy Crest and which distributes Yoplait brand products in the UK.[3] In 1995 it bought the Cathedral City brand of cheese from Mendip Foods Ltd.[3]
The business was privatised in August 1996 and Dairy Crest was listed on the London Stock Exchange.[3] In July 2000 it acquired the dairy and cheese products division of Unigate in London[3] and in November 2002 it acquired the St Ivel spreads company which had been based in Wootton Bassett in Wiltshire.[3] In September 2004 it went on to acquire the Country Life butter brand from the English Butter Marketing Company.[3] In July 2006 it acquired Express Dairies from Arla Foods for £33m.[4] In October 2006, it sold the majority of its own label cheese business to First Milk, its Scottish equivalent, along with the creameries and factory that produce most of the products concerned.[5]
In January 2007, Dairy Crest bought St Hubert for £248 million securing the Cholegram, Le Fleurier and Omega 3 brands, which are among the top selling spreads in France, and the Vallé brand which is the market leader in Italy.[6] In July 2013 Dairy Crest sold its doorstep delivery operations in the Northwest of England to Creamline Dairies who will operate the milk rounds from the Warrington, Flixton, Stockport and Macclesfield depots and whose subsidiary Mortons will operate all those in the Wirral, Chester and Liverpool.[7]
On 6 November 2014, Dairy Crest announced a big slump in profits and the sale of its milk business. The dairies operation, which processes and distributes milk, is being sold to Germany's Müller for £80 million. It comes as profits at the UK's largest dairy food company fell 95% to £900,000 in the six months to September.[8]
The company supplies milk, cheese, spreads and drinks. It also has an online ordering service for its doorstep customers known as milk&more.
Cheese brands include Cathedral City, Davidstow Cheddar and Wexford.[9] Spread brands include Clover, Country Life (named for the magazine), St. Hubert, Utterly Butterly, Vitalite and Willow.[9] Drink brands include Country Life Milk and Frijj (a milkshake brand).[9]
Milk production sites include Chadwell Heath and Stonehouse and spread production sites include Crudgington and Kirkby.[10]

It's only been a couple of weeks, and usually by now, I've come off the high that comes with fishing far-flung places and stopped looking at real estate next to particularly fishy waters. But this time is... different.
I was fortunate enough to lead a blogger/writer/photographer tour to the Tongass National Forest on behalf of TU and out Tongass 77 Campaign in mid-July, and while I've been home for a bit, I can't help but reminisce on the week spent chasing salmon and char under the canopy of the rainforest outside of Juneau.
Thankfully, the journalists on the tour can't seem to help but look back on their time in the Tongass, too. Already, a few of them have chimed in with blog posts and photos that are just breathtaking. And, they all have one thing in common--the magic of the Tongass has clearly gripped their souls, just as it did mine when I first fished Southeast Alaska almost a decade ago.
Below are a few links you should check out, and, as always, I want to thank our generous sponsors who helped make the tour possible. They are:

Oct 24, 2012 2:38 PM by The Associated Press
WESTMINSTER, Colo. (AP) - A teenager who lived just a mile from a 10-year-old Colorado girl who was abducted and killed earlier this month has been arrested in her death, along with a May attack on a runner.
Police in the Denver suburb of Westminster say they arrested the 17-year-old on Tuesday night after receiving a call that led them to his home. They declined to elaborate.
The teen was arrested in the killing of Jessica Ridgeway, who disappeared Oct. 5 after leaving for school. Her body was found five days later in a field at a park.
The break comes two days after police said Jessica's abduction was linked to the May 28 attempted abduction of a 22-year-old runner at another park. The teen will be charged in both cases.
Reached by phone Wednesday, his mother told The Associated Press he turned himself in. She declined further comment.

Unconventional Reservoir Production (Rate-Transient) Analysis
This course provides an overview of the state-of-the-art in unconventional gas (shale gas, tight gas, and coalbed methane) and light oil (shale oil, tight oil, and "halo" oil) well production analysis. Unconventional reservoir properties are first reviewed, followed by a discussion of production analysis in the context of a field development optimization workflow. The concept of rate-transient analysis (RTA) is introduced, and example theoretical rate-transient signatures for fractured vertical and multi-fractured horizontal wells are reviewed.
An overview of analytical methods for RTA is then provided, including a discussion of how these techniques can be modified to account for unconventional reservoir properties such as multi-phase flow, non-static permeability, non-Darcy flow, and desorption. Empirical methods for production analysis are also briefly reviewed. Tight gas, shale gas, tight oil, shale oil, and coalbed methane field examples are provided to illustrate application of the techniques.

Noguchi has partnered with Amanda Corby of UMU Hawaii and Poni and Brandon Askew of Street Grindz. TASTE features a combination of in-house special series meals created by Noguchi and pop-up meals created by guest chefs. Dinner is served Monday through Saturday with a fixed menu that changes each day. Pop-ups are currently planned with Lee Anne Wong of Cooking Channel's "Unique Eats," Miso & Ale, and Pig and the Lady. TASTE will also offer cooking classes, chef demos, tastings and more.

Popular Hawaii restaurant Eggs 'n Things is opening its third Hawaii location near Ala Moana Center this week. The grand opening is set for November 8. The restaurant, specializing in pancakes, omelets and crêpes, is famous for its large portions and equally long lines to get in. This new outpost is expected to make dining for local residents easier, since it is the first location outside of Waikiki with ample free parking. The menu will initially be similar to the Waikiki locations, although the owners plan to expand the menu selection. There is also a retail shop with buttermilk pancake mix, syrups, Waialua coffee, eco-bags, T-shirts and more. Breakfast, Lunch & Dinner daily. Eggs 'n Things, 451 Piikoi St., Honolulu, HI 96814, 808-538-3447.
A new restaurant, bar and banquet facility called 53 By The Sea has opened on the site of the former John Dominis restaurant. The original structure was retained, but redeveloped into a larger building designed to look like an Italian villa to accommodate wedding chapels and banquet rooms. Diners can expect an upscale menu created by chef Hiroshi Hayakawa, featuring southern Italian cuisine infused with Hawaii's regional ingredients --- especially seafood, to reflect its location fronting Kewalo Basin. For a more casual experience, the bar is open daily and has a good selection of wines and spirits selected by master sommelier Roberto Viernes, plus special handcrafted cocktails by bartender Tim Rita. Lunch & Dinner daily. 53 By The Sea, 53 Ahui St., Honolulu, HI 96813, 808-536-5353.
Nobu Matsuhisa to Open Restaurant on Lanai
Chef Nobuyuki "Nobu" Matsuhisa is planning to open a restaurant on the island of Lanai, in one of the two Four Seasons Resorts. No details are yet available on which location or its opening date. Matsuhisa currently has a Nobu restaurant in Waikiki.
Food & Wine Series at Makena Beach & Golf Resort
The Makena Beach & Golf Resort kicks off its monthly food and wine education series by exploring the pairing of poke (Hawaiian for "to cut in pieces") and Sauvignon Blanc from 6 p.m. to 7 p.m. on October 11 at the resort's Molokini Bar & Grille. The event showcases executive chef Marc McDowell's poke creations, featuring a trio of ingredients such as fresh caught ahi, shrimp and beef, each prepared to deliver distinctive flavors to complement a trio of wines chosen by Hawaii resident master sommelier Patrick Okubo. Wines will include Craggy Range, Michelle Redd and Matanzas Creek. Cost of the tasting is $35 per person, not including tax or gratuity.

After five years at the Hawaii State Art Museum (HiSAM), Ed Kenney's Downtown @ the Hisam closed on September 15. Kenney, who also owns Town restaurant in Kaimuki, will put his catering operations on hold until he finds a new location --- preferably in the downtown area to cater to the business crowd. Although Downtown @ the Hisam was popular, Kenney's reason for closing is due to an impasse in lease negotiations with the HiSAM on a favorable, second five-year lease. Downtown @ the Hisam, Hawaii State Art Museum, 250 Hotel St., Honolulu, HI 96813, no phone.

With summer around the
corner and American Craft Beer Week winding down, we're ready to tap into
today's Drink of the Week—the Little Kings Original Cream Ale. As Americana as
beer brewing gets, cream ales first hit the pint glass in the late 19th
and early 20th centuries when Northeast and Mid-Atlantic brewers
began fermenting ales at cooler temperatures (similar to lager production). The
resulting hybrid ales were crisp, clean and a favorite of beer enthusiasts coast to
coast. Imbibe contributing editor Joshua Bernstein explores the history of the
beer style and recent resurgence in our current issue,
and Little Kings fits right in with its smooth, malty flavors, notes of sweet
vanilla and caramel, and bit of hop bitterness on the finish. Brewed from the
same recipe since the 1950s, this beer offers up a taste of the classic cream
ale style and is available across the country. Looking for
cream ale with a regional flair? Check out local offerings ranging from Empire Brewing Company in Syracuse, New York to Bold City Brewery in Jacksonville,
Florida to Coalition Brewery in Portland, Oregon. And want to know more about the
current crop of cream ales? Click here.

Lithium Air Batteries Get Boost From IBM and DOE
Re:Well (240 comments)
I know you are right about that, but it really confuses me. I for one consider it a conflict of interest since they aren't private enterprise. Another thing I'm confused about is who exactly owns it? I have heard arguments that technically the companies that funded the inventors owned it because of that, and if that is the case wouldn't any patent held by the U.S. government be owned by any and all citizens that pay taxes? I don't expect anyone to help me here since the whole idea of patents is kind of confusing to me. People get them on carefully worded solutions to problems, or get a patent for merely discovering some kind of genetic sequence that was already there (genes, vitamins, etc..). Pathetic really. I'm just wondering how well they will hold up prior art when over 100,000 inventions will be dumped into the public domain this year alone. Don't need patent reform, or need to get rid of them. If they hold up their end then we just need to invent it before anyone else can patent it. =) Keep watching the PDI website.

That figure surpasses last year's traffic-related deaths.
A startling shift in a trend has local and state law enforcement officials working to educate drivers and prevent life-changing crashes.
With the upcoming New Year's holiday, plans are being made to curtail drunk driving and other dangers associated with driving.
Lt. John Harmon of the Tennessee Highway Patrol Chattanooga District said Thursday, "We want to leave everyone three things to live by: Wear your seat belt; don't drink and drive this New Year's holiday — get a designated driver [instead]; and don't text and drive."
The dynamic of deadly crashes has changed. Speed or alcohol and lack of seat belt use were and continue to be factors or elements in deadly crashes, but texting and driving as well as other driver distractions have been noticed more frequently during the many crash investigations conducted by local and state officials this year.
Locations have also shifted.
Officials are seeing data that indicate deadly crashes are increasingly being investigated in urban (city) jurisdictions. Harmon said this is a shift from the normal, relating that most fatalities in the past have occurred in rural jurisdictions (county).
"This weekend, beginning early Friday evening, every available THP trooper in the Chattanooga District will be out performing checkpoints and roadblocks in the district," Harmon said.
"We will be working three phases during the five-day New Year's holiday period which ends Tuesday at midnight. THP will be helping with county saturation patrols, checkpoints, both driver's license and sobriety, and we will also be performing bar and tavern checks," he added.
"It's our goal and [that of] many other agencies within the district for everyone to bring in the New Year safely," said Harmon.
Bradley County Sheriff's Office Traffic Unit and Patrol Division deputies will also be teaming with Cleveland Police Department officers to monitor areas at random checkpoints, according to Capt. W.G. Campbell of the Bradley County Sheriff's Office.
Campbell said 23 people have died on Bradley County roadways this year.
"Driver distractions such as cellphone use for either talking or texting, eating, looking away from the road to change radio stations and other factors have been found to be elements determined to be the cause of some of the fatal crashes this year. Some investigations continue," Campbell said.
Sgt. Andy Smith of BCSO's Traffic Unit said deputies are going to be vigilant regarding traffic enforcement and watching for lack of seat belt usage and other infractions.
According to data 937 fatal crashes occurred in Tennessee in 2011.
"Ultimately, the safety of a driver and his passengers falls to the driver. The driver is in control of the car, the distractions and making sure his passengers are properly restrained," Campbell said.

Rabbi Hartman, while making the case for self-defense as a moral obligation of the Jewish people, called for a "nuanced conversation" on the use of power and the need to make room for other voices in the pro-Israel field. "If we're going to learn to love Israel together we're going to have to contract," he said, "to contract our certainty, to contract our language."
It was a more cautious formulation of a message delivered a day earlier by Israeli author and Amos Oz, who said in a speech opening the J Street conference, that "no one can claim Zionism for themselves." Oz, however, did not leave any room for doubt regarding the views thinks American Jews should adopt when supporting Israel. "Let us all be united," he said, "but why unite under the militant, hawkish, extremist banner of AIPAC?" he asked, referring to the American Israel Public Affairs Committee.
The J Street conference, which is taking place at the Washington Convention Center, is populated by many young activists. College students make up nearly a quarter of the participants. While at the lobby's first and second annual conferences, much was made of the presence of activists from the far left, this criticism seems to have subsided as J Street gradually inched closer to the center and more radical activists found their way out of the organization.
An outcome of this moderation is growing cooperation between the lobby and Israel's embassy in Washington. When J Street was founded, nearly four years ago, it was shunned by the embassy and by other officials from the Israeli government. This year, Israel's second-in-rank diplomat in Washington will address the gathering.
"They have said some positive things," said an Israeli official, who noted the group's opposition to all types of boycott, including the limited measures offered by Beinart, and its opposition to last year's Palestinian bid for statehood, as positive steps.
Landing a high-level speaker from the Obama administration, however, proved to be a difficult task. The White House, will send Tony Blinkin, who is the national security adviser to vice president Biden, and Valerie Jarrett, senior adviser to President Obama.
Earlier this month, when AIPAC held its annual conference, the administration was represented by President Obama himself as well as by Defense Secretary Leon Panetta.

Conspirator in a Sophisticated Bank Fraud Scheme Convicted by a Federal Jury
Recruited Bank Employees and College Students to Participate in the Scheme
Greenbelt, Maryland - A federal jury convicted Bolarinwa Adeyale, a/k/a "Bola," age 23, of Greenbelt, Maryland, late on February 27, 2012, of conspiracy to commit bank fraud, two counts of bank fraud and aggravated identity theft.
The conviction was announced by United States Attorney for the District of Maryland Rod J. Rosenstein; Postal Inspector in Charge Daniel S. Cortez of the U.S. Postal Inspection Service - Washington Division; and Special Agent in Charge David Beach of the United States Secret Service – Washington Field Office.
According to evidence presented at the five day trial, in the fall of 2007 Adeyale; Okechukwo Otuya a/k/a Oke and Waffi; Oluwadamilola Feyisetan, a/k/a Dami (Dami); Adeniyi Adebiyi, a/k/a Niyi (Niyi); Alexander Diya and others devised a scheme to defraud Bank of America by depositing stolen credit card convenience checks into legitimate Bank of America accounts and withdrawing the money before the bank learned that the checks were not authorized. Adeyale, Otuya and Dami were among the leaders in the scheme. Adeyale, Otuya, Dami and Niyi obtained the convenience checks by stealing them from homeowners' mailboxes in Montgomery, Howard and Prince George's Counties. Adeyale and others recruited college students to permit the use of the students' bank account (the "compromised accounts") to deposit stolen credit card convenience checks and make cash withdrawals from the account after the checks cleared. Adeyale and others also recruited bank employees to provide account information for "high end" bank customers, including the account name and numbers, customer's signature cards or previously negotiated checks with appropriate signatures, and the customer's address. Adeyale and others then used that information to create fraudulent checks for those accounts.
According to trial evidence, as a result of the scheme, the total amount of fraudulent deposits made by the conspirators from over 50 compromised bank accounts is $1,210,017.14. The actual loss to Bank of America is $611,140.05.
Adeyale faces a maximum sentence of 30 years in prison for the bank fraud conspiracy and for each of the two counts of bank fraud. Additionally, Adeyale is subject to two years in prison, consecutive to any other sentence imposed, for aggravated identity theft. Adeyale was acquitted of one additional count of bank fraud. Chief U.S. District Judge Deborah K. Chasanow scheduled sentencing for Adeyale on May 21, 2012, at 1:30 p.m.
Oluwadamilola Feyisetan, a/k/a Dami, a/k/a Lola (Dami), age 24, of Laurel; Alexander Diya; and Malia Forrester, age 31, of Millersville, Maryland have pleaded guilty to their participation in the scheme and are awaiting sentencing. Adeniyi Adebiyi, a/k/a Niyi, a/k/a Mike (Niyi), age 28, of Upper Marlboro, Maryland, also pleaded guilty and was sentenced to four years in prison and ordered to pay restitution of $148,000. Okechukwo Otuya, age 31, of Laurel, Maryland, was sentenced to eight years in prison and was ordered to pay restitution, with the exact amount to be determined.
In addition, co-conspirators Charles G. Richardson, Jr., age 26, of Capitol Heights, Maryland; Kennika Freeman, age 23, of Greenbelt; Alexander Omotomiwa Diya, age 25, of Bowie, Maryland; Taiwo Akinyeke, age 28, of Laurel, Maryland; and Oladipo Ayodeji, age 23, of Bowie, have all pleaded guilty to their roles in the scheme and are awaiting sentencing.
This law enforcement action is part of President Barack Obama's Financial Fraud Enforcement Task Force. President Obama established the interagency Financial Fraud Enforcement Task Force to wage an aggressive, coordinated and proactive effort to investigate and prosecute financial crimes. The task force includes representatives from a broad range of federal agencies, regulatory authorities, inspectors general, and state and local law enforcement who, working together, bring to bear a powerful array of criminal and civil enforcement resources. The task force is working to improve efforts across the federal executive branch, and with state and local partners, to investigate and prosecute significant financial crimes, ensure just and effective punishment for those who perpetrate financial crimes, combat discrimination in the lending and financial markets, and recover proceeds for victims of financial crimes.
United States Attorney Rod J. Rosenstein thanked U.S. Postal Inspection Service and Secret Service for their work in the investigation. Mr. Rosenstein praised Assistant U.S. Attorneys Jonathan Lenzner and Robert Hur, who are prosecuting the case.

After too many years of filling window boxes with vining plants that grew down to the ground, dug in and spread and general neglect of the flower/shrub bed below, I am trying to figure out how to get control back! I want to plant some knock out roses but I'm afraid they'll be strangled!
There are some plants there that I'm sure would do better but how do you get rid of the out-of-control ground cover without damaging the plants I want to keep? Thanks in advance, Linda, NW Georgia... |
Follow-Up Postings:
Hi Linda, I think you posted this in the wrong forum? To answer your question though, your best bet is to dig out the offensive vines that have taken over from your window boxes. I hope this helps some, even though it's a couple months late :0) |

Watch: Damon Thibodeaux Adjust to Life After Exoneration
Posted: May 9, 2013 3:30 pm
Damon Thibodeaux watches a Yankees game with Pam Wandzel, pro-bono & community service manager at Frederickson Byron, the law firm that helped exonerate him.
Ten months after Innocence Project client Damon Thibodeaux became the 300th person to be exonerated by DNA evidence, KARE NBC Minnesota in St. Paul caught up with him to see how life post-exoneration has been. Since his release, Thibodeaux moved into his own apartment, bought a car, earned his high school diploma and got a job working within the Frederickson Byron law firm, which helped exonerate him.
See Damon in his new community.
"You can't go through something like this and not be angry. It's what you do with it that defines you," said Thibodeaux.

Hi everyone,
We need to choose an energy efficient French door for our addition (6 Feet rough opening for 8 foot ceilings). We live in Canada, so I don't want these doors to be a major source of heat loss. The doors will face south in a poorly treed area. I was hoping the two doors could open fully as opposed to a garden door where only one side opens, but could be persuaded otherwise. Our door and window trim will be painted white on the interior in case that matters at all (i.e no stained wood). Are there any good quality well insulated French doors on the market? Thanks for your help. I don't know how I could get through all these addition decisions without Garden Forum! Carol |

I would look for a fiberglass door and Low-e/argon will be a minimum. You will need to decide ultimately what you want for an operator type and work from there. A sliding door will be cheaper than a French door. |
- Posted by OntarioMom (My Page) on Sun, Sep 25, 11 at 11:10
Hi, I am not sure what you mean by operator type. We want the door to swing inward -- is that perhaps what you mean? We know the French door is more expensive than a slider, but we really prefer the look. We are prepared to pay for a quality door. Any brands you would recommend? Carol Carol |
- Posted by windowsonwashington (firstname.lastname@example.com) on Mon, Sep 26, 11 at 10:47
The look of a French door (i.e. taller bottom rail) can be duplicated with a sliding door. The difficulty with French doors is the fact that they will not come with a screen option. You will need to look into the sliding/hiding screens (i.e. Phantom or similar) to screen a French door. |
I have two triple section (two non moving, one moving), in swing french doors from Marvin. Each has a sliding screen (or you could have chosen a swinging screen option). They are clad exterior, interior wood, low e, argon filled. Had them installed almost a year ago and I love them. |
- Posted by OntarioMom (My Page) on Mon, Sep 26, 11 at 17:15
Thanks dgmarie! I happen to be going to a Marvin showroom this week. I will ask about the same door you mentioned. Glad to hear a recommendation about a good quality french door. Carol |
- Posted by windowsonwashington (email@example.com) on Tue, Sep 27, 11 at 2:21
dgmarie, Are the non-moving panels able to be unpinned and folded inward? If not, what you have is called a hinged patio door and does come standard with a screen. |
ok, well I'm not an expert but we always called them french doors since they are all glass, all the same look, but only one opens. It is this one: http://www.marvin.com/patio-doors/swinging-french-doors/ Marvin calls them French doors and that's what the order form calls them, too (inswing french door). The other panels are all separate but we cannot move them. They are installed fixed shut. |

The new designer came to our house today and we went through shelter magazines so I could show her what I like. She pointed out that many, many of the rooms I liked had cream furniture, with dark brown wood and colorful accessories. (Can't believe I never saw that before.) So now we're thinking of going with cream couches or chairs in our livingroom.
Forgetting for now the issue of kids and a new puppy (yes, I must be insane), we have tan walls and white painted trim. I'm not usually one who likes to mix white and beige, and I'm very picky about colors. I'm sorry to be posing such a silly question, but will it look funny to have cream furniture if we have white painted trim, including lots of white-trimmed windows, a white ceiling, and a white-painted mantel? Thanks very much. Here are photos. Ignore the broken window. |

In my opinion, it would look SPECTACULAR. :) I love, love, love your LR. Everything about it. |
- Posted by texashottie (My Page) on Tue, Jul 22, 08 at 21:05
Pretty photos!! I think it will be fine. You'll have a very monochromatic space with the white, cream, and tan shades. Just like every room needs a touch of black to "ground" it, the same can be said about white. Very, very pretty indeed. |
Thanks everyone! I would have looked again at all the photos, but the designer took my precious magazines with her to make color copies. I'm sure that all these rooms that I love have white painted trim, and the furniture might be more beige or cream, but it will work. I still can't believe how obvious it was and yet I never realized it. Duh! |

I love your room. I remember telling my girlfriend thirty years ago that I loved cream/white together. That it looked so crisp and clean. It's ageless really... I also like white and cream bedroom's, it kind of takes on a glamorous look. |
klc, I meant to thank you for your photos. Everything looks beautiful, and I'm quite impressed by your DH's ability. I can't tell from the photos, but are there glass doors on the built-in cabinet, or am I seeing a special treatment on the back walls of the cabinet? |
Meg711, I love cream and white together. I love your room so much. The wall color and the floor color is perfect. What wood species and finish is your floor? It is a perfect color to me. |
Yes, it will work. I have all cream furniture in my LR.........all white trim. My furniture is also sitting on a colorful rug. |
Thanks so much Lynn. I used to know what the floor is. I'm pretty sure it's three-inch quarter sawn white oak. The stain is a custom stain that's mostly natural with a little nutmeg. It's a Swedish finish. Annz, funny you should mention the rug because that is what we're starting with: a very colorful bold rug which I absolutely love--but had been wondering about what furniture to put on it. The cream or beige definitely answers that question. I'd love to see photos of your room. |
meg....the glass in the doors is called artique glass....that is what you are seeing! I am still debating clear glass or stained glass panels in there. In the right cabinet is where we keep our "tv equipment" (it's in the back corner of our living room). Thanks for the compliment! |

This one made me smile because I'm normally very fussy about mixing white and white-based colors with off-white and off-white based colors. I've come to the conclusion that it matters a lot less in decorating a room than in clothing a person. I've also noticed that it's very, very hard to find really white furniture; trim can be painted a relatively warm white; and as long as you have some off-white-based (tan) paint on the walls, it'll be fine. So go for it. |
Meg, I'll try to snap some pics tomorrow. |
Thank you Meg for letting me know. I must just love quarter sawn sold oak floors since it seems to be every floor I really adore is this particular cut of wood. It is a shame my slab floor needs an engineered wood floor so I can't have what I love but maybe one day in the far future if I ever sell my beautiful townhouse and buy a house with a basement. |

This year I planted sweet potatoes for the first time. The vines are going crazy. In an attempt to keep them from taking over my garden I've been trying to keep them circled around "mounds". When i have been re-gathering them I noticed that the vines where they have been spreading are rooting. Are these small roots where potatoes will be forming or are they forming under original "mounds". Is it OK to keep redirecting vines so they don't take over garden? |

There are only 12 survivors, among them are pilot Carolyn Fry (Who has assumed command after the ship's captain is killed), bounty hunter William J. Johns, religious man Abu Al-Walid, Antiques dealer Paris P. Ogilvie, runaway teenager Jack, settlers John 'Zeke' Ezekiel and his lover Sharon 'Shazza' Montgomery and Richard B. Riddick, a dangerous escaped convict. Marooned, the 10 survivors finds the barren and hot desert-scape has sunlight from three suns. Not only must they find food and water and worry about Riddick, the survivors find themselves being hunted by the planet's flesh-eating alien inhabitants when the planet is engulfed in darkness, which happens every 22 years, as they emerge from underground to hunt and eat all signs of life. Fry and the survivors find Riddick is their best chance of survival, as Riddick has surgically-enhanced …

Error MessageCannot open SCD File
After running some iterations and stopping, the following error occurs when the simulation is continued:
Error: Cannot open scd file
The Solver Convergence Data file (.scd) is an internal solver file that stores convergence data. This error can occur because of file read issues or when running one of the file utilities (under the File menu) when a file read/write problem occurs.
There are several potential causes of this error:
- This could be due to permissions on the directory. Ensure that you have write privileges to the folder that contains the analysis.
- The file may be in use by another process. Make sure that another instance of this same analysis is already running.
- The message could mean the disk is out of space. Check the amount of available disk space on the drive containing the analysis.
- Check firewall and security software to ensure that Autodesk® Simulation CFD can write to the folder containing the analysis.
- On a 32-bit PC, a large analysis with many saved intermediate results sets may approach the 2Gig file size limit for 32 Bit OS. If this happens, the results may not be accessible from the analysis. To access the results:
1. Rename the support file and the results file to a new analysis name. For example:
analysis_s.cfdst --> analysis-new.cfdst
analysis.res.t500 --> analysis-new.res.t500
2. Open the new cfdst file, and continue the analysis from iteration 500. Set the number of iterations to 0, and press Solve.
The mesh will generate, and the results from the results file will be saved to the analysis.
3. This process can be repeated for other saved results sets. Use a different analysis name for each result set.

Come Super Bowl Sunday,
beer is practically as important as the game itself, and this year we're
placing our bets on today's Drink of the Week—Widmer's Columbia Common Spring
Ale. The most recent release from Portland, Oregon brewing brothers Kurt and Rob Widmer, this beer's low ABV (it clocks in at just 4.7%) and quadruple dose
of hops drinks similarly to an India Session Ale (the
up-and-coming beer style we highlight in our inaugural "Imbibe 75"), and it's just
the brew for pairing with game-day snacks. Widmerbrothers.com for distribution info.

Has anyone ever put a wood stove through an existing fireplace chimney in there manufactured home? if so did you add new chimney pipe or liner? |

Go to a stove shop before you do anything else. You need a stove that's certified for manufactured home installation. You can't put in just any stove. There are plenty of inserts that will allow you to use the existing chimney, but you will need a liner to reduce the opening from 8 inches to 6 inches. And the chimney will need to be insulated too. That's why you NEED to talk to a stove shop. Also if you need any service down the road, the stove shop will be ther to help, as the manufacturers won't be much help at all. |

can you tell me the difference between a wood stove for a manufactured home and a wood stove made for a stick home?? besides the price!! and the fact you need to use it with the pedestal and not the legs, and i know we dont need the stove bolted down as we are on a foundation, we found the pipe that is recomended UL-103HT but that poses a problem it is a 6" liner but with the insulation and all the total w is 8 inches (same size as chimney pipe already in there, so i need to find out if the old chimney pipe can come out so that the UL-103HT can be installed in there, thank you for answering my question. |

Go to www.hearth.com and ask over there. That's where the EXPERTS are. They will give you a straight answer to all your questions. |

Thank-you old-vt-crafter btw i LOVE VT my parents were born and raised there, i will never figure out why they diddnt stay,i try to get to vt as much as possible,still have family there) maybe thats why i moved here (very small town IN) reminds me some of vt without the mountains lol |

May I ask why you want to install a wood stove if you already have a fireplace? I installed a corn/pellet stove in our home that been just great! It's vent pipe is just 3" dia and goes through the wall and then up to the roof. My home insurance was not affected because it is approved for mobile home use, and it has cut our propane use in half! I love the look of a wood stove too, but they require careful installation and considerations in any home. Even though your home is on a foundation, the house is not constructed the same as a stick built. The materials used are very different and meant to make the house lighter in weight for ease of movement. Because of this fact our homes are more susceptible to things like wind, water, and yes..even fire. Old VT crafter is right about checking things out at a stove shop, but do yourself a favor and check out your local codes and even do a bit of research online as well. U.S. Stove is a good place to check for info on line. |

Yes, I know they're on the LiveCD. And if you install them networkless, they install the regular "ebuild", not the "-bin" version. So the next update makes you recompile. On slower machines, OpenOffice, for example, takes a long time to recompile. But if you put "openoffice-bin" on the LiveCD, that wouldn't happen. Firefox, Evolution, Thunderbird and OpenOffice are packages just about everybody loads, they're packages of significant size taking a fair amount of time to recompile on a "typical 1 GHz" machine, and they have frequent updates. In fact, I only started building OpenOffice from source when I got my dual core Athlon64 X2 5200+ with 4 GB of RAM! Maybe the dividing line should be CD vs. DVD. Put the "-bin" ones on the LiveCD but put the compiled versions on the LiveDVD, or both, since there's probably room for both on the DVD. -- firstname.lastname@example.com mailing list

text: Yeah yeah yeah…"deep house" is a huge thing now and everyone is starting to make it. One act that definitely has my attention throughout this content onslaught though is MSCLS. This project out of Texas is the new alias for LeDoom and it's taken his dexterity on the EDM front and dialed everything back to a sophisticated 117 BPM tip that's putting non-stop grins on my face strictly because of how dope the tunes are. This latest joint from the project, "Baby, You", features Tony Mundaca and is basically everything I look for in a vibey house cut. The vibes are there with a laidback melody but the bassline is just weird and dissonant enough that it gives everything a completely unique and different feel. Makes it stand out if you will. Honestly got this one early and been playing it on the reg for months. Now it's your turn as this bad boy has been released for free.

Many Countries Penalize Blasphemy, Apostasy and Defamation of Religion
As of 2011 nearly half of the countries and territories in the world (47%) have laws or policies that penalize blasphemy, apostasy or religious defamation.
Rising Tide of Restrictions on Religion
Three-quarters of the world's approximately 7 billion people now live in countries with high government restrictions on religion or high social hostilities involving religion, up from 70% a year earlier.
Catholics Share Bishops' Concerns about Religious Liberty
Catholics who are aware of U.S. bishops' concerns about restrictions on religious liberty generally agree with the bishops' concerns, according to a new report. Yet there are no significant differences in presidential vote preferences between Catholic voters who have heard and those who have not heard about the bishops' protests against government policies they see as restrictive of religious liberty.
Rising Restrictions on Religion
More than 2.2 billion people — nearly a third (32%) of the world's total population of 6.9 billion — live in countries where either government restrictions on religion or social hostilities involving religion rose substantially between mid-2006 and mid-2009.
Churches in Court
American religious institutions have been at the center of many legal controversies in recent years. These and related lawsuits raise complex constitutional questions that have been troubling American courts for more than a century. Are legal disputes involving churches and other religious institutions constitutionally different from those involving their secular counterparts, and if so, how?
Indonesia's Place Along the Spectrum of Global Religious Restriction
Indonesia, where President Barack Obama will visit this month and where he spent part of his childhood, is among those countries of the globe where such restrictions and hostilities are highest.
Global Restrictions on Religion
Since some of the most restrictive countries are very populous, nearly 70% of the world's 6.8 billion people live in countries with severe restrictions on religion.
Sikh-Americans and Religious Liberty
With their religious beliefs requiring distinctive elements of dress and appearance — wearing a turban, keeping hair and beards uncut, carrying a kirpan — Sikhs have been a part of many legal disputes. In an interview, church-state scholar Robert W. Tuttle discusses religious liberty and accommodation issues involving Sikh-Americans.
Ten Years of U.S. Efforts to Promote Religious Freedom
A scholar describes the controversy surrounding the passage of the International Religious Freedom Act in 1998 and discusses its impact worldwide.
The Plight of Iraq's Religious Minorities
Since 2003, sectarian violence, ambiguous legal protections for religious freedom, and other factors have contributed to a deteriorating situation for Christians and other small religious sects.

HoopsHype Africa rumors
Microsoft co-founder and Trail Blazers owner Paul Allen has announced he is expanding his efforts to help fight the Ebola outbreak in Africa with a $9 million donation to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. Allen's donation Thursday to the CDC Foundation will be used to build and equip emergency operations centers and train staff in the three most affected countries. In August, the Paul G. Allen Family Foundation announced a $2.8 million gift to the American Red Cross to provide equipment, train workers and produce education materials in Liberia, Sierra Leone and Guinea. His foundation also set up a $100,000 matching grant program through GlobalGiving to encourage others to help stop the virus. Oregonian

Curry spent 2½ days in a refugee camp in northwest Tanzania, home to 66,000 Congolese refugees. It was Curry's first time in Africa. "It's really, really heartbreaking. It's tough to see but I'm really glad I went and could bring that story home," he said. "I wanted to see the faces of the people we were helping and hear their stories. and it drove home the point of why I've been involved for so long. So many people need those nets." USA Today Sports
Pay-television sports broadcaster SuperSport, says it has agreed a multi-year television and digital rights partnership with US basketball league the NBA. The deal is historic as it is the first time NBA action will be available on SuperSport. The broadcast giants will offer content, live games and other programming across 47 territories in sub-Saharan Africa. Expressing delight at what is arguably the company's most lucrative partnerships, Brandon Foot, SuperSport's Head of Acquisitions and Legal said: "This is unquestionably one of the jewels in our crown. Some of the greatest names in sport have played in the NBA, so it is only fitting that they come to the 'World of Champions' where the best sport is broadcast. "Basketball has gained a strong foothold in Africa, so we are delighted to acquire rights to one of the biggest and best-run leagues in world sport. We will now proudly broadcast the most NBA action on the continent." Ventures Africa
Microsoft founder and American billionaire Paul Allen will appear in a Botswana court in October for allegedly attempting to smuggle giraffe bones to the US. According to the King County Superior Court, a safari guide was arrested and detained in Maun, Botswanaメs tourism capital, by customs officials after the Microsoft co-founder and current Seahawks owner (Allen) and his sister Jody, tried to sneak home the bones while on safari in Botswana. Court papers charge that a review of the trip to Botswana by the Allens had revealed a pattern of illegality. モThe acts I have witnessed and had to engage in to perform my job to the expectations of my principals leave me with no choice other than to constructively terminate my employment,ヤ reads a statement by one of Allenメs bodyguards.

R.C. Buford still wants Wangmene to reach his potential. He's his father here, and his advocate everywhere. "With his mom passing, there's been a lot of guilt that Lex feels over that — almost that [question of], 'Did she die of a broken heart?'" Buford said. "I don't think that's the case, but it's definitely something that weighs on him." Wangmene plays only a handful of minutes most nights. He never got off the bench against Canton. His dreams of playing in the NBA are dimming. But Buford brushed aside the question of nepotism. "He had a good college career," he said. "The Development League is made up of hundreds of people with parallel college careers to Lex." Grantland
But he's got other priorities now. Wangmene established Leading Through Reading, a burgeoning nonprofit aimed at building libraries in Cameroon and other countries. The African way, Wangmene says, is to be patient, unlike the NBA in waiting for that African pipeline to develop organically. He wants to be at the forefront now, establishing learning centers in Maroua and other cities to teach languages, nutrition, and education. Grantland
"I would say that China, which is the largest segment outside the U.S., is doing very well. I would say we'll see that to some degree as well in Turkey, in Africa, in Brazil," Stern said.

As midnight chimed, gunfire rang out through the night air, accompanying the chorus of horns from every car. Young men clambered onto their roofs as they passed by, singing songs and chanting in unison, wildly sharing a moment that many never felt would arrive in their lifetime. Luol Deng would not have been anywhere else as the party began. History was being made, and shaped, on July 9 as the world's newest country celebrated its independence. The Republic of South Sudan was born after an almost 30-year labor, one accompanied by a brutal civil war that saw 2 million people lose their lives and twice that number disappear into exile. "It was something that I've been waiting for my whole life," admitted the Chicago Bulls forward. "A lot of lives have been lost, and they've finally got what they fought for. It was very emotional." ESPN.com
Patrick Ewing can't believe how much South Africa has changed in the 17 years since he last visited the country. On Friday afternoon, the Orlando Magic assistant coach sat in the back of a bus with Alonzo Mourning and Dikembe Mutombo as they traveled from the township of Orange Farm into Johannesburg. As Ewing glanced out a window, he described what he was seeing. "The last time we were here, apartheid had just ended," Ewing said by cell phone. "There's been so many new structures put up. The country's definitely grown. . . . Especially in the big cities, there's big buildings and the hustle-and-bustle of people. There's traffic, cars, markets and shops." Orlando Sentinel
Sitting near Amadou was our other host, Denver Nuggets general manager and Nigerian native Masai Ujiri. Having arrived a day before us, Masai seemed to have recovered from his jet lag and looked like a kid in a candy store. I've gotten to know Masai since he took the GM job in Denver a year ago, but at games I'm used to seeing him standing in the Pepsi Center, arms folded with a serious look on his face ... as if every Nuggets possession represents a carefully thought out chess move for him. Here in Tana, I'm seeing a different side of Masai. Elated from watching his countrymen defeat the Central African Republic earlier in the day, Masai is all smiles and enthusiastically explains to Marc and I everything we need to know about African basketball: the players (virtually all of whom played or play in the NCAA and professionally in Africa), the coaches, the federations, the history and so on. There are no better ambassadors to Africa for the NBA -- and the overall sport of basketball in Africa for that matter -- than Amadou and Masai, both of whom are tall in stature but have hearts bigger than their physical frames. Both were damn good players in their youth -- Amadou played for Senegal, Masai for Nigeria -- but neither were good enough to make it to the NBA. Like most African players, Amadou and Masai may have had the physical gifts to someday become NBA players, but they started playing the game too late. SB Nation
To foster an interest in basketball early in kids' lives and get Africa's best young players the coaching they desperately need, Amadou and Masai run camps all over the continent, culminating with their signature Basketball Without Borders camp, taking place this Thursday in Johannesburg. The eighth time BWB has been hosted in Johannesburg, next week's camp will feature 60 campers between 18-24 years old meeting NBA legends like Mutombo, Patrick Ewing and Alonzo Mourning while getting coached by current NBA coaches and executives. Seeing the African teams up close in the FIBA Afrobasket quarterfinals, I share Amadou and Masai's vision for getting more African players onto the world's grandest basketball stage. The raw talent is here and I saw some splendid basketball. SB Nation
Suns.com: How many times have you been to Africa with Basketball without Borders? Suns GM Lance Blanks: I'm not sure how many times, actually. I have to take a look back because there have been so many. I've been to Africa about a dozen times. I've been to Senegal, Egypt and some other countries. Suns.com: Have you been looking forward to this upcoming trip for some time? Blanks: Yes. Love it. I enjoy going over there. It's always a very exciting time of the year for me to just go over there and experience it. There's a lot of goodwill that the NBA offers. And also there's a basketball piece to it because of the kids you get to observe. You also get to work with other teams' scouts and personnel, as well as people from the league. So it's a good trip. NBA.com
Several NBA stars have accomplished much in the philanthropic realm, but very few have set out to accomplish the mission and vision of the Orlando Magic's power center Dwight Howard. On August 15-22, 2011, the worldwide mission of the D12 Foundation was furthered when Dwight and foundation executives traveled to the United Republic of Tanzania. His travels in Tanzania were to continue his tireless efforts to promote education as a vehicle for economic and social development success among young boys and girls around the world, particularly for the poorest nations around the globe. SLAM
During his week-long stay, Dwight visited the Kipok Secondary School in the Monduli region and the Lunguya Secondary School in Shinyanga to donate more than $80K for their educational efforts. Dwight's donation will assist in building a dormitory on the grounds of each school so that the young girls are able to live on the school's campus. By living on campus, it will ensure that the students have three meals a day and will help to keep the young girls safe from any danger, including potentially being raped, as they will no longer have to walk more than three kilometers to school. Other needs in this region include additional schools, classrooms, teachers and computer labs. The Secondary Schools also in need of 84 dormitories, of which only 20 are available at this time, leaving a shortage of 64. The presence of dormitories increases retention of the young girls and boys and as a result increases completion rates and improves academic performance. SLAM
The next day, I told Post I had decided to go. I asked what I needed to do to get ready. They were very happy about me going and told I had to get vaccination shots from the doctor, make sure my passport was up to date, and acquire a visa. I had never been to Africa and honestly it was terrifying to say the least, and it was all happening very fast. I had no idea who I was going with, only that there were about 10 doctors and nurses going, and I wouldn't be meeting any of them until I flew into London. While getting my vaccinations the doctor informed me that the shots I was taking would take more than 10 days before the antibodies would be active -- so, in other words, they wouldn't do me any good until I came back. On top of that I didn't even know where we were going; our airline tickets only got us to Nairobi. NBA.com
