A Casual Get-Together • The Cocktail Hour • International Sampler • Holiday Buffet • Recipe Cards
We're bringing a new idea to the table: mini individual samplers, glassware, handy trays and easy-care platters that make entertaining a lot more fun. Tasting Party® pieces are designed to let guests try a little of everything. But they're also classic, made of porcelain or glass, so they look beautiful alone or mixed with pieces you already have.
The Tasting Party® Collection was actually inspired by restaurants, where appetizer menus and small plate choices let everyone sample the chef's best creations. But we took things a step further. These servers can hold little salads, soups, mini casseroles or desserts sized just right for both easy prep and adventurous eating.
Which brings us to the best part. When you don't have to worry about one huge main dish to please everyone, think how creative you can get with the menu. Thai buffet, wine and cheese tastings, bridal showers, a game-day snack spread or elegant holiday party. Or all of the above. All year long.
And whatever the occasion, you know everything works together. Tasting Party® pieces create an impression in any setting. They're dishwasher-safe. They are even available individually or in sets so you can get exactly what you need.
A Casual Get-Together
A family-friendly idea with make-ahead treats to keep things simple. Other casual party ideas? We're thinking ice cream social, game-day snack spread or winter soup buffet.
- Use place cards and place card holders to label dishes
- Bowls are easier than plates for guests to handle
- Set out toppings in small bowls so everyone can add their own
The Cocktail Hour
Appetizers, desserts, liqueurs—with Tasting Party pieces, everything is easy for guests to handle and sized just right for sampling. Other party possibilities: A wine and cheese tasting or fiesta with sangria and salsa buffet.
- Mini Cordials, Mini Wine Glasses or Mini Shot Glasses double as dessert dishes
- Set out extra napkins and coasters on side tables
International Sampler
Choose any theme from afternoon tea to Moroccan cuisine, and serve old favorites along with daring new dishes. Suddenly it's not just a party. It's an adventure. We really like this idea for luncheons, bridal showers or a supper club.
- Think traffic flow: Clear the path around your table
- Create a drink station on a sideboard or tray table
- Store-bought? Takeout? Totally OK (and encouraged)
Holiday Buffet
Invite the Tasting Party Collection to your best celebrations. So unique and practical, these are pieces you'll also want around all year long. For starters: Valentine's chocolate tasting, summer garden get-together or Halloween parties.
- Add holiday color with garnishes like candy canes
- Use cards or gift tags to label dishes and drinks
- Rethink traditional dishes—maybe pumpkin bread trifle instead of pie

In a small mixing bowl, place the remaining honey and red pepper flakes. Dip the shrimp, but not the tail, into the honey mixture. Place 2-3 shrimp in each individual serving bowl on top of the mango salsa. This can be made in advance, but should be covered and refrigerated until ready to serve.
For Mango Salsa with Chicken, cut 2-3 boneless chicken breasts into 3" strips. The chicken should be grilled or pan-fried until golden brown and done. Serve the same as the shrimp recipe.

How many of you watched Oprah's show on Tuesday? Not trying to start trouble or be flamed....but honestly how many of you could relate? Not to the name calling of your children, or physically hurting them....but to the everyday stresses that we deal with and how sometimes our kids take the 'brunt' of it. I know I for one have some areas that I need to work on, such as 'yelling' and sometimes belittling my kids when they do something wrong. I think Dr. Phils advise was great and I plan on using it to deal with some of my own issues. I tend to let things go and go and go until I finally blow up. I hate yelling at my kids to clean their room or yelling at them for something they have done. I made a promise to myself as soon as the show was over, that I am NOT going to yell at them anymore. If it takes going outside and kicking a tree (dr. phil's words) that is what I am going to do..
Did this show have an impact on anyone else? THANKS!! Mac |

No I didn't see it but would love to hear what the advice was! I feel I yell and nag a bit too much myself. What did they say? |
I highly recommend the book How to Talk so Your Kids Will Listen and Listen so Your Kids will Talk. Others have recommended this book before but it really is full of wonderful strategies and I for one need a "refresher" read! |

It's been two months since an Amtrak train crashed into a car on the tracks near Guadalupe, killing the driver and his one-year-old daughter.
Antonio Ortiz, 26, died at the scene and his daughter died a couple of hours later.
The California Highway Patrol says it just recently closed the investigation and it couldn't determine either way if Ortiz intentionally parked his car on the tracks.
A CHP spokesperson says the investigation was based on witness accounts and physical evidence. Unless some other evidence presents itself, investigators can't say the incident was intentionally caused. Because the car was not in motion at the time of impact, it's being deemed a traffic incident, rather than a traffic collision.
The report has been forwarded to headquarters in Sacramento.

We offer as a no cost service a 1 hour phone consultation with one of our kiosk software application specialists to gather your project requirements and determine if we are a good fit for your project and budget.
In order to avoid wasting your time and ours we like to get some idea of your budget up front. The cost for kiosk hardware typically ranges anywhere from $3,000 to $10,000 per kiosk based largely on the hardware configuration and manufacturing complexity. We are not a kiosk manufacturer but we are happy to assist you in getting a quote on your kiosk hardware.
The cost of the kiosk software (the part we write) varies greatly because it is completely customized to each client's needs to be a perfect-fit solution. Most of our kiosk software projects fall somewhere in the neighborhood of 200 to 700 development hours.
We also use this opportunity to determine our role in your project. We're easy to work with and have several options available.
Many of our clients are not familiar with the Agile SCRUM development process so we take this opportunity to give you a primer. Agile has proven to be highly successful in delivery great ROI but it doesn't always fit in with the culture of all organizations. Agile embraces the constantly changing nature of projects and therefore does not attempt to make a perfect plan from the beginning. It instead spreads the planning out over the entire development processes and focuses on completing the most valuable features first (as prioritized by you the client).
Need help with your kiosk software project? We have extensive experience developing transaction-based, self-service kiosk software.

Organ donations
The HTA regulates donation of solid organs from living people.
Living donation
The Human Tissue Act 2004 requires the HTA to assess all proposed transplants from living donors and to decide whether the transplant should be approved, based on criteria set by Parliament.
The HTA ensures donors are aware of the risks associated with transplants, that they have not been offered any reward to donate and have not been put under pressure to do so. Potential donors and recipients are interviewed by an Independent Assessor (IA) who submits a report to the HTA.
The HTA works closely with NHS Blood and Transplant to ensure the appropriate systems are in place to support living organ donations.
The Human Tissue Act 2004 provides a legal framework for living organ donation. Options for living donor transplants can be found online.
If you are considering becoming a living donor
If you are considering becoming a living organ donor, you will find the information on the left hand side of this page useful. The HTA's leaflet on living donor transplants will also be helpful.
You may also want to read the information available on the NHS Blood and Transplant website. For detailed information on the first steps to take, please contact your nearest transplant unit.
Deceased donation
The underlying principle of deceased donation is that organs and tissues can only be removed with consent. The first step is to establish the wishes of the deceased. If the potential donor has made it clear that they do, or do not, wish their organs or tissue to be donated, this wish must be respected and cannot be overridden after their death. One way a person can indicate their wish to be a donor is by joining the NHS Organ Donor Register and carrying a donor card. If the wishes of the donor are not known, the Human Tissue Act 2004 permits consent to be obtained from the person nominated by the deceased person to act on his or her behalf, or from a person in a qualifying relationship – such as a partner or other relative or friend.
For more information on deceased donation please see the HTA's code of practice on Donation of solid organs for transplantation.

As we wind-down and enter the last few days of the year, what better time than now to reflect upon this past year in baseball logos and uniforms?
Nearly every team in the Bigs did something new or special uniform-wise during the course of the 2011 Major League Baseball season, so many that I'm being forced to break this list up over three parts. For you today I'll be recapping the uniform highlights for the first ten teams, alphabetically, of the National League of Professional Baseball Clubs.
The Diamondbacks have never been one to wear a throwback uniform in the past, they've only been around a handful of seasons, but in 2011 they had an important milestone to celebrate and that was the 10th anniversary of their 2001 World Series victory over the New York Yankees. The Diamondbacks dropped their usual red, black and sands for one day on September 9th in exchange for their classic purple and teals which hadn't been worn since 2006. They must've brought some magic with them as the D-Backs went on to beat the Padres that day 3-2.
Atlanta participated in several retro jersey games throughout the season, including a weekend against the Phillies where they wore a different throwback uniform each game. They first honoured the Boston Braves by wearing uniforms patterned off the 1944 team for a throwback game in Los Angeles, complete with Boston "B" caps.
The weekender mentioned above with the Phillies was done in honour the the Civil Rights Game, held that Sunday in Atlanta. The Saturday night the Braves wore Negro League throwbacks of the Atlanta Black Crackers and the next night chose to honour the great Hank Aaron with their 1974 home uniforms.
From August 21st through the end of the season the Braves honoured former player and play-by-play man Ernie Johnson by wearing this patch on their uniform sleeves.
The Cubbies honoured the memory of fan-favourite, and recent Hall of Fame inductee Ron Santo, who had died last December, by wearing this sleeve patch throughout the entire 2011 season. In addition to this patch the club also participated in a couple of turn-back-the-clock games, both on the road. First up was a May 4th matinee in Los Angeles in which both clubs wore their uniforms from the mid-1940s, the Cubbies sporting a uniform made famous by a Norman Rockwell painting.
Two weeks later they jumped back another 30 years to wear their 1918 uniforms for their first appearance in Boston to face the Red Sox since the 1918 World Series, not the most interesting of uniforms but what do you want? It was 1918.
The biggest change to the Reds outfit this season was to the uniforms they wear before anything counts – their batting practice jerseys. The Reds introduced a new "Reds" cursive script logo which goes across the front of their pre-game/pre-season jerseys.
The Reds played in throwbacks twice during the season, honouring the Cincinnati Tigers Negro League team with uniforms based off their 1936-37 set for a game in Milwaukee on July 9th. A month prior they wore 1940s throwbacks for a game in Los Angeles, like so many others did during the season.
Aside from altering their batting practice jersey (which every team did in one way or another before the season) the Rockies didn't do anything for the 2011 season. They will be making a change, however, for the 2012 season, one which involves finally removing the pin-stripes from the road grey jerseys – returning to a road uniform more similar (but not the same) as their pre-2000 set.
Like their expansion cousins in Denver, the Florida Marlins didn't do a thing before or during the season. Of course that was just the calm before the major storm they unleashed in November, but you all know about that one already – look for it in the 2012 season preview.
When owner Drayton McLane sold the club in May the Houston Astros were freed from their long-standing order from McLane to wear the brick red jerseys as often as possible, basically making them the unofficial full-time home and road jerseys. The Astros broke out the rarely seen road grey jerseys around the time of the sale and proceeded to wear them frequently throughout the season, even pairing them with an all brick-red cap for the first time in the history of that identity set.
The Astros switch to the American League has created a flurry of rumours and speculation about a major re-brand in store for 2013 but I can honestly say I haven't heard anything regarding this, it may be too early to know by this point.
The Los Angeles Dodgers needed some way to pass the time in-between anniversary seasons, 2010 being the 55th anniversary of their '55 championship, and 2012 being the 50th anniversary of Dodger Stadium, they chose to fill the void with a random throwback jersey. The Dodgers played in their 1940s powder-blue Brooklyn Dodgers jerseys in a series of turn-back-the-clock games the team hosted throughout the season, six of them to be exact. Each of which featuring an opponent dressed for the occasion, those teams are covered in their individual sections throughout this article.
The Dodgers also paid tribute to their fallen Hall of Famer Duke Snider by wearing this patch all season on their uniform, and gave an additional shout-out to the Brooklyn Dodgers (did you know they used to play in Brooklyn?) by wearing their cap, along with their standard home LA jerseys for a game on August 9th. Also of note, the Dodgers made a subtle tweak to their primary logo for the 2012 season, the fun part is they made the switch mid-way through 2011 and nobody noticed.
The Milwaukee Brewers wore four one-game-only uniforms during the season, when you throw in their regular in-game rotation the Brew Crew wore eight different uniforms throughout 2011.
First up was a first for the Brewers, an all-gold jersey. The first time gold made an on-field appearance for the club they read "Cerveceros" across the front – which is Spanish for "Brewers", worn for their annual Spanish-heritage game on June 18th. These gold jerseys were such a hit that they brought them back again, this time in English for a tilt against the Phillies on September 10th.
All that multi-lingual fun didn't stop there, the Brewers became the first team to wear uniforms written in German when the "Bierbrauer" took on the "Piraten" in Milwaukee on August 14th. Milwaukee being the city with largest population of German speakers in North America it only made sense.
On July 9th the Brewers took the field wearing the uniforms of the 1923 Negro League club, the Milwaukee Bears against the Cincinnati Reds, the sixth consecutive season in which the Brewers have honoured their former Negro League teams.
In May the Brewers took the field against the Pirates wearing camouflaged caps for a military serviceman night. Finally, it wasn't worn long but team groundskeeper Gary Vaden Berg died during the NLCS prompting the club to wear this memorial patch for the remainder of that series, a nice gesture.
The 2011 season was our first tease of the entirely black-free New York Mets identity to come in 2013, and although the flashes of blue and orange were very brief (and sometimes botched), they looked great during those games.
On August 5th the Mets wore a blue jersey with mainly orange letters and numbers, something Mets fans haven't seen in over a decade. The jerseys were worn for Spanish heritage night and featured "Los Mets" written across the front of the jerseys, many Mets fans snatched up the jerseys, unstitched the "Los" and walked away happily with their exists-only-in-their-dreams jersey.
Noticing the popularity of the blue duds the team wore their blue and orange batting practice jerseys in a game on August 29th against the Marlins. This one didn't work out quite as well, they paired the blue and orange jerseys with an all-black cap, ruining that look. The Mets were a central figure in perhaps the most controversial uniform related news of the season when they were denied permission by Major League Baseball in their attempts to honour the FDNY and NYPD by wearing caps bearing their initials for the 10th anniversary of the September 11th attacks.

The Asian Business Aviation Association (AsBAA) will host a meeting for all Mainland China business aircraft operators during the Asian Business Aviation Conference & Exhibition (ABACE2013).
This meeting, which will be held April 17 from 2:30 p.m. to 4:30 p.m., will provide an opportunity for operators to meet directly with AsBAA leadership so they can discuss current issues related to business aircraft operations in China.
"Direct communication from operators will help AsBAA develop a concrete action plan focusing on how to improve business aviation in China," said AsBAA Executive Director Cindy Du. Regulatory issues, economic challenges, operational improvements, and other recommendations to ensure business aviation can operate with the necessary flexibility will be discussed.
In addition to setting priorities for AsBAA, operators will benefit from an educational presentation focusing on best practices for safety. The International Standard for Business Aircraft Operations (IS-BAO) will be the focus of this program.
All Chinese business aircraft operators are invited and encouraged to attend this meeting, which takes place at the Shanghai Hawker Pacific business Aviation Centre, meeting room No. 1 on the ABACE Exhibit floor.
For more information, contact Du at +86 8400 4004 or [email protected].

This product has been discontinued
In a pinch had to grab something CHEAP. ($5.97 at Walmart) Got HONEY which is considered to be a medium color. I applied to my face and went Whoaaaaa, it felt silky, went on smooth and feels weightless. The color is a bit light (am MAC C35) but its not too bad and feels wonderful. Will try the next color but can make it work with bronzer. Coverage is light but buildable without caking but will never be a medium coverage powder. If I can find a color to match this will be my HG...... am sooooo excited I found it. Sorry MAC
I used to use Christian Dior's powder, but since i've tried this i'm ready for a change, and a very thrifty one if I may say. I have this in Sand and it absolutely blends into my skin tone. I have light little bit yellowish asian skin tone. Its not too powdery like how CD goes on, and if I keep touching up it doesn't look very done up or powdery. Great silky light finish. Doesn't make me break out either. I'm one of those who does not like the packaging however. Twist, twist, twist, I wish I could just open up like a regular compact and get on with it, without feeling I have to go through 3 steps to open it up!
I like a nice, matte look and need a pressed powder for my purse... hence I purchased this
The packaging is very interesting - a flattened compact (pan and lid) connected to a mirror/puff compartment by a swivel mechanism. Some people will hate it, some will love it. I couldn't stop opening and closing it the whole way home, it felt very hi-tech, I kept looking into my mirror, expecting a little hologram of Obi Wan to appear.
I purchased it in Fair, which is a very nice neutral hue. I gotta give this powder credit for serving up three decent colors for us fair gals instead of throwing us a single, super-pink shade like most brands do.
The texture also earns it another brownie point - this stuff is like crushed and pressed down feathers. So.. so soft. The particles pretty much roll out evenly along the skin, so I can't complain that it "just sat on my skin."
Sadly, this stuff just wasn't for me. It was too mattifying for me - it seemed to make me look too sallow and aged.
This will be a godsend for anyone who has severely oily skin, but it's not for me. Would recc for people with oilslick skin.
I LOVE this powder! It goes on SO smooth and gives a lovely, even, matte finish. It has a tendency to look quite powdery after application, but I find buffing some of that off gives a lovely dewy look with great coverage.
It's great for my oily skin!
I bought this on a whim and I'm really happy with it. I have a horrible time finding powder/foundation for my skin tone (pale and pasty with pink undertones). Everything seems to go yellow or orange on me. I grabbed this in Ivory (Light 2-3), and it's perfect.
More reviews by barbiedollcurves
still not enough to get a good 5. this makes my skin look PORELESS. I freakin love it. Maybelline really knows how to match us half-white+asians. i use light 4-5 during the winter and medium 0-1 during the summer. the colors are very forgiving and don't add too much color. but this does get oily =/
I actually use this right now, and I have used it down to the CORE. all i know is that the colors are really nice and i like the compact quality. the powder is very thick and it covers alot. i usually use this over my foundation and it covers beautifully. the coverage is VERY thick i will warn you, but then again the brush i'm using might be causing that. i gave it four lippies because it's known to make my skin a little irritated if i'm not careful.
otherwise, GREAT product. especially for acne-prone and combo.
More reviews by thewomanwarrior
For once, I actually found a Drugstore powder with yellow undertones! This is my HG powder because of the color match and its long lasting ability to control oil (or maybe that's because I usually use a primer like Milk of Magnesia..Shrugs). I am Asian with strong Yellow undertones (MAC NC 30, Shiseido O40) and it's so hard to find a Drugstore cosmetic item with warm yellow undertones because most of them are pink. I use the shade Sand. I almost got Cream but I thought Sand was more yellow based. The compact is actually quite cute despite the fact that it's not your typical flip open compact (It's a swivel compact). This powder looks very natural on me, even in natural lighting. Please don't use the powder puff! The results of a powder puff leads to a chalky face and you end up using too much of your powder. Use a decent powder brush to apply this dream matte pressed powder. I usually use my Essence of Beauty powder brush or my MAC #187 Stippling brush. Use a brush you're comfortable with. :-) I will buy this powder again!
EDIT: I took one lippie off because the shade "Sand" wasn't as yellow as I thought it was. When I wear this powder over my Maybelline Instant Age Rewind foundation, it's obvious that I have makeup on. I don't like that look! I'm going to wear this powder alone and see if it looks better. If not, I might try Beige, the next shade down.
1 out of 1 people found this review helpful. Did you? Yes No
Well with asian skin most products on the main market almost never matches..I got this in medium/beige and its ok. It blends well and it never breaks me out. I use loose powder over my foundation to set and this compact for touch ups. I would purchase again until I find a better compact since it does work for me.
Asian, NC35, oily, acne-prone skin, here. I bought into the hype and decided to try 'Beige'. I was quite happy with the dream matte mousse but the pressed powder didnt quite cut if for me. I dont think anything will replace my MAC blot powder. When first applied (alone, no foundation), my skin looks great, matte, airbrushed almost, and not too cakey at all. The pigmentation/coverage is pretty good for a powder, it can definately tone down redness, but doesn't stay on well at all - after ~4 hours, the powder had pretty much melted off my oily skin. I would recommend this powder for those with normal skin only. The compact is very convenient, I like how the velvety sponge is kept in a separate compartment that swings out from underneath (instead of flipping up).
When it first came out, I first bought this in Cream and it looked just a tad bit too light on my skin, but I liked the makeup itself. Recently I needed some makeup quickly and went to the store and picked up the Sand shade. Wow! Was it ever tan/orange-y on my light skin. Not good. Overall I like the product, but the colors are off for my skintone. I could get away with the Cream color okay, but the Sand was not good at all for me. I would buy this again if I picked a better color.

This sculpture, entitled 'I Wish You Hadn't Asked' by The Glue Society was a submission in the Sculpture by the Sea festival in Denmark. Designers decided to make this piece interactive, and they definitely succeeded in doing so. This stormy abode actually rains inside; the ceilings and walls rain 200 liters of water every single minute. Observers who walk through the house are encouraged to wear rain jackets and boots, as everything is soaking wet.
This pouring place wasn't simply designed for fun; The Glue Society wanted to make a point that what is done, cannot be undone. It's a lesson to observers to tread carefully in their relationships.
This sombre shelter by The Glue Society is dripping with meaning.

W Michigan 70
(5-8, 1-5 away)
(7) Duke 110
(11-1, 6-0 home)
Coverage: ESPN2/WatchESPN
7:00 PM ET, December 30, 2011
Cameron Indoor Stadium, Durham, North Carolina
Top Performers
Western Michigan: M. Stainbrook 18 Pts, 8 Reb, 1 Ast, 2 Stl
Duke: Q. Cook 16 Pts, 4 Reb, 8 Ast, 2 Stl, 1 Blk
DURHAM, N.C. -- Mike Krzyzewski told his Duke team to pick up the pace. That wound up making everyone in the Blue Devils' backcourt look pretty good.
Seth Curry scored a season-high 22 points and Austin Rivers added 20 in Duke's 110-70 rout of Western Michigan on Friday night.Quinn Cook had 16 points and eight assists, while Tyler Thornton added 12 points on four 3-pointers to help the Blue Devils (No. 5 ESPN/USA Today, No. 7 AP) win their fourth straight."We changed our offense a little bit to go push up the floor a little bit more, and play at a faster pace," Curry said. "And it showed."The Blue Devils (11-1) shot 54 percent and hit a season-high 14 3-pointers to complement their 50-28 rebounding advantage."We hit a lot of 3s, but I thought they were good 3s," Krzyzewski said.Duke used a huge early run and a knack for getting to the free throw line to take a 30-point lead during a 63-point first half -- its highest-scoring half since hitting for 66 in the second half last year against Colgate -- and went on to reach triple digits for the first time this season.Matt Stainbrook had 18 points to lead the Broncos (5-8). They had their four-game winning streak snapped in decisive fashion and were beaten by an Atlantic Coast Conference team for the first time in program history."It's just kind of like going into a heavyweight bout -- you may get in a punch or two in the early rounds, but as the fight wears on, they just keep wearing you out with those body shots," Western Michigan coach Steve Hawkins said.Miles Plumlee had a career-high 15 rebounds and Josh Hairston scored 13 points for the Blue Devils, who faced little resistance in extending a few impressive streaks at Cameron Indoor Stadium.They won their 42nd in a row at home -- only the 46-game winning streak from 1997-2000 was longer at the venerable arena -- and claimed its 92nd straight victory at Cameron against non-ACC teams.Curry -- whose nagging ankle injury appears to have healed -- wound up having one of his best days in a Duke uniform, matching the 22 points he scored in last year's home victory over North Carolina. He finished shy of the career-best 35 points he scored against VMI as a freshman at Liberty three years ago before transferring to Duke."It's hard work paying off," Curry said. "The last few games, I kind of struggled with my shot, wasn't as aggressive as I should have been, and coach was telling me to hunt my shot and play more aggressive."The Blue Devils were playing for just the second time in nearly three weeks -- because of final exams and the holiday break -- and first time since a 27-point romp against UNC Greensboro on Dec. 19. The pace picks up in a hurry: They have fewer than 48 hours to prepare for Sunday afternoon's game against Pennsylvania.Indeed, that long layoff certainly had no effect on them in this one."This shows how focused we were and how focused we are," Rivers said. "It's been a long time off. Instead of coming out rusty and getting back into it, we come out from the get-go."The Blue Devils took command with an early 32-6 run in which they did some of the things they do best -- find ways to get to the line, and lock down on defense."Austin did a good job of driving and getting us to the bonus early in the game," Curry said. "And then guys like me and even Austin, we just try to attack the rim and put us in situations to attack our man, one-on-one, and we got some calls."Duke had 16 free throws -- making 13 of those -- before Western Michigan even attempted its first foul shot, and by that point the Blue Devils had pushed their lead well into the 20s for good. At halftime, the Broncos had five players with three fouls apiece and Duke had taken 26 free throws to Western Michigan's two."What free throws allow you to do is, it allows you to get your defense set," Hawkins said. "We felt that our shot at trying to keep this thing close with the personnel that we had, we had to make them play in the half court. They're still very good at it, but if they get out in transition, they're just superb. ... Our inability to get to the free throw line allowed them to get out and really run."Plumlee started the decisive run with a three-point play, Austin scored six points during the burst, Hairston put Duke up 20 with a free throw with 10½ minutes left in the half and freshman Michael Gbinije capped the burst with a 3-pointer from the right wing to make it 32-8 with 8:45 left before the break.The Blue Devils held the Broncos without a field goal for more than 6 minutes, came away with points on 14 consecutive trips downcourt and eventually went up 30 when Curry's free throw with 6.5 seconds before halftime pushed it to 63-33.Demetrius Ward added 16 points and Hayden Hoerdemann finished with 12 for Western Michigan, which entered 6-0 against current ACC teams but was denied in its bid to become the second Mid-American Conference school to beat a Krzyzewski-coached Duke team.Copyright by STATS LLC and The Associated Press

In concert: Magnetic Fields
By Dave McKenna
Rhyming matters to Stephin Merritt as much as it does a typical rapper. Going through his amazing pop/show-tunesy songbook with his group, Magnetic Fields, and before an awestruck and church-quiet audience at Lisner Auditorium on Thursday, Merritt's rhymes occasionally were as comically forced as those Nipsey Russell delivered on vintage episodes of "Match Game." For "I Don't Want to Get Over You," for example, he wedged "Camus" opposite "blue." And "The Nun's Litany" found "dominatrix" opposite "all those gay tricks."
(So clever, so sad. Plus more pictures, after the jump.)
But even when the wordplay got giggly, Merritt and others in his spare and mostly acoustic quintet set a somber mood. The longtime New Yorker now based in Los Angeles is simultaneously clever and sad to a degree more commonly found in British artists; Richard Thompson and Billy Bragg came to mind on "Falling Out of Love (With You)," as Merritt, on ukulele, sang brutal couplets such as: "Every hour kills a flower/I'm falling out of love with you." Merritt's melodies, meanwhile, have a "Wow!" quotient few combos from any continent can compete with.
Merritt can write in any style, though his faux country and folk tunes sometimes condescend to the real thing. The new "We're Having a Hootenanny" was as brutal to folkies as anything in "A Mighty Wind," and Merritt must have written the Irish jiggy "Wi' Nae Wee Bairn Ye'll Me Geget" after somebody peeved him at a St. Patrick's Day parade.
Merritt doesn't need to be witty or maudlin or to mimic to come off brilliantly. After the final verse of "Lindy-Lou," Merritt simply hummed the songs main riff, and the impact was glorious. But Merritt was unable to accept the crowd's worship. A hearing disability makes applause literally painful for him, so he hurried offstage covering one ear.

I've seen two (three) of my favorite lomographers vanish recently. Who have you seen disappear?
@lola_juanlu was the first person(s) to befriend me. And I haven't seen any new material from them in weeks. Mind you, I have had my attention drawn away by my wife's illness, but this still is notable.
Their last photos consisted of some shots of a rugby match between England (boo!) and Wales (yea!) last summer:
Then @maria_vlachou has disappeared amidst all the Greek chaos. I like her experimental work. The last thing she posted was an album of pieces taken on her new Actionsampler:
If either of these sees their names here and wants to say hello, please do so!
For the rest of you, who have you missed lately?

Q. What should I do on a regular basis to maintain my laptop? Regularly update antivirus software and virus definitions; back up data files; change your password; defragment your hard drive; ensure your computer has the latest updates.
Q. What if I already own a notebook computer? Your computer may NOT be able to run the required software packages and you will be at a disadvantage if your computer doesn't meet the performance requirements over your four years at UVM.

I am the proud momma to 24 children. Yes, twenty-four. My husband and I had 6 then took in 18 troubled teens. They are all grown now and have blessed us with 13 grandchildren.
But with all those mouths I have a entire library of recipes. None of those books compares to the ease of the recipezaar.com site or the help I have found through fellow down home cooking enthusiasts that I have had the honor of meeting here.
My true love is to find recipes that have been modified to use a crock pot, since my schedule is so crazy, that do not have the flavour or the texture get lost in translation.

Have Fox News and Roger Ailes Goofed?
Who's tweaking whom?
I have come to believe that the nearly daily back and forth between the White House and Fox News is good for both sides. I have further come to believe it's good for the political class in general. For one thing, the fight is deeply self-referential and true inside baseball (who is doing what to whom on the basis of what strategy and what future benefit); for another it sets up the ultimate liberal-conservative face-off. In one corner the new young president (with all his promises of bipartisanship) and in the other Fox Chief Roger Ailes, that dark figure who has been bending media to the conservative cause since the Nixon administration.
Politico, the arbiter of political baseball, floated the rumor on Friday that "friends and associates" were encouraging Ailes to run for president in 2012.
Before getting to my relative affection for Ailes, let me note that he will be 73 in 2012; he's vastly overweight (and sensitive about it); he has health problems and can't walk very well; he's ghoulish looking; he's deeply and nuttily paranoid (he discusses freely, albeit in lowered voice, the plans of radical Muslims to storm his house in New Jersey); and he may not be capable of doing 15 minutes without an offensive utterance.
Suffice it to say that nobody is encouraging Ailes to run for president.

Learning about miniature gardening
I love gardening. So when I saw a gardening demonstration and swap event announcement in the local newspaper, I wanted to go. I didn't even pay attention to the specific topic.
The event, held on Saturday, June 18 at the R.H. Stafford Branch Library, was really interesting. I didn't know what to expect, but was happily surprised to see three miniature or fairy gardens on display when I walked into the room.
Ginny from the Library demonstrated how to create miniature gardens including a Japanese Zen garden.
Attendees brought plants divided from their own gardens, gardening books and magazines, and other gardening related materials to swap.
I went home not only with some new knowledge about gardening, but also with a few plants for my garden.
I wish I had brought my camera to take some photos of the miniature gardens on display.
If you want to see what miniature gardens look like, check out this blog post 20 outstanding miniature gardens.
More photos of miniature gardens, fairy gardens or Japanese Zen gardens can be found on Google images website.
Ginny is starting an email distribution list for garden enthusiasts for future gardening events and swaps. If you are interested in sharing gardening ideas and plants, let me know, or simply leave a comment here.
3 Responses to Learning about miniature gardening
Gardening is an endless job, with many pitfalls. It doesn't take much to completely ruin a beautiful garden by planting the wrong plants, or not planting them correctly. We have plenty of articles to make sure that everything goes as planned. From planting to weeding and poisons to plant food. Never worry that you will get it wrong when you have a resource like directweb helping you.*^

Love the miniature gardens! I'm not much of a gardener, but just might be able to keep up with something that small. You have a nice blog too; I followed the link from your Stretcher article on organizing with three-ring binders (excellent article, by the way). Very interesting topics here.
