Look for Less: Hanneli Mustaparta
Norwegian model-turned-blogger Hanneli Mustaparta is in front of the camera almost as much as she is behind it, due to her gorgeous smile and enviable style--which can only be described as super-chic with an unexpected twist. Check her out here at the recent Cartier dinner for the MOMA where she wore a classic Calvin Klein shift that popped in the most perfect (and on-trend) shade of orange, paired with clunky platforms from Chloe Sevigny for Opening Ceremony. Get the look for less here:

12 Responses to "Pickled Radishes Two Ways (Daikon and Watermelon Radish)"
Really interesting. I never think to pickle anything – other than jalapenos.
Me either. I just figured I got these radishes with my CSA so rather than waste them why not do something where I could use them!
This is awesome!! I never knew watermelon radishes existed until I saw the Iron Chef (with Vitaly Paley as the competitor–a chef my fiance's family is friends with here in PDX), and the secret ingredient was radishes! I want to try one now!!!
I am jealous of all your CSA veggie deliciousness!! -
Hey Dawn, Awesome! I have never thought to pickle anything and I didn't know it was so simple! That's awesome!
I've signed up for a CSA this summer and I am SO apprehensive about the radish I know I'll be getting. I'm just not a fan. But I've also never seen radishes quite as pretty as those are. Or any that sound as tasty as your pickled version does. I think I might be in love.
Smile! We've been trying to think of a good way to use up our radishes. This will be so tasty and fun! Thank you for sharing your pickled treat tonight. I hope that the end of your week is full of peace and joy. Your words make me smile, week after week!
The watermelon radish is so beautiful pink, my 1st time seeing this.
They ARE so gorgeous! Now that the radishes have sat for a few days soaking they are even better. I have been snacking on them with turkey and putting them on salads. The daikon have really started soaking up the ginger flavor. Yum!
I have never pickled anything… they look terrific.
This is so great Dawn! I've been wanting to do pickles for a long time but for some reason never get around doing it! I must try your recipe, this sounds so good!
This is so gorgeous! I have been thinking of vegetables that I want to pickle…I wish I had watermelon squash but I am leaning towards green beans right now
[…] got a garden overflowing with daikon at the moment. Thinking about this gingery pickled number or possibly a vegan daikon and radish cake, holy […]

I have a nice size plot tilled for my garden, it is around 25 by 100 feet. I could have them make it bigger but for now it is big enough. I did get my onion sets today and also some more potato sets. So lets see how many of you put out a garden each year, not just here in the states.

I have started my first vegetable garden, but it's a fraction the size of yours. I have put in onions, garlic, bush beans, carrots and turnips. Oh and a couple of tomatoes. I've enjoyed it so far, everything has sprouted, so I'm hoping for a harvest. Almost forgot--I did plant 4 cabbages over the winter. The cabbage worms just at the plants up so badly, but when I harvested them and peeled off all the eaten-up leaves, there was a nice cabbage inside. Good luck with your garden. |
Onions, tomatoes, sweet potatoes, white potatoes, 4 kinds of peppers are all in. So is the basil and the parsley. We've finished all the lettuces and tender greens - it's already getting hot enough to make them bolt. Swiss chard and kale will go in this weekend - they've been in the greenhouse until now, just because we got a late start on them. We don't get reliable results from the cole crops - we either freeze to late or go to 90 degrees to early. We have a new bed of asparagus in, which we won't be able to harvest for a few years, but it looks like it will produce heavily. |
Oh, I forgot the two types of eggplant and the bok choy. They will go in this weekend also. |
- Posted by marilyn_sue (My Page) on Wed, Mar 25, 09 at 20:53
It is still too cool here for green beans and tomatoes and things like that. Closer to the end of May usually, sometimes if the weather is really warm early some things will get planted earlier. If it doesn't rain by tomorrow, I may be able to get into the garden to plant those onions and potatoes. I don't want to be tromping around in the mud. I have two daughters that put out a garden and the other daughter plants just a few tomato plants and maybe a few peppers. Sue |

We have always gardened--at least for 30 years. Fortunately, we now have space to have a really big vegetable garden, not only for ourselves, but also for the local food pantry. We have peas, potatoes, broccoli, several types of lettuce, spinach, radishes, beans, squash, cucumbers, tomatoes, peppers, and carrots. When the early crops come out we will put in okra and melons. Gardening in Texas means we have two seasons for gardening, IF it rains! |
- Posted by ruthieg__tx (My Page) on Wed, Mar 25, 09 at 20:56
My early garden is doing really well. I have Cabbage, broccoli. kale, mustard, onions, spinach. and sweet peas...I have lots more to plant before it is over and done with.... Did you know that we have wonderful gardening forums right here at Garden Web.. |
- Posted by socks12345 (My Page) on Wed, Mar 25, 09 at 21:31
Marlingardener, do you have much trouble with pests? If so, which ones? I had so much trouble with the cabbage worms, I just wonder what else is going to attack! (I know about tomato worms.) |
- Posted by gardenspice (My Page) on Wed, Mar 25, 09 at 21:40
Yes. I have perennial herb garden and I add annuals, like basil in season. I usually grow a Fall/Winter and a Spring/Summer vegetable garden. Right now I have lettuce, tomatoes and peppers. Later in the season, I'll add some squash and some okra. Marilyn, I wish I had your kind of space. |
I have onions, lettuce, spinach, & radishes planted now. A little later I will plant tomatoes, peppers, squash, and cucumbers. |
You gals are just making me hungry...we don't have the snow off the ground. DH and I decided last fall we would not do a garden this year but now with the poor economy and food prices, we are thinking we will do one again. There is too much for us and we share a lot with the neighbors. |
I have always worked in a veggie garden as far back as I can remember. I use to help my dad when I lived at home who always had one. When I moved out I always had one of my own too. I live on 2.5 acres, but only part of that is the veggie garden. I have 6 raised beds that are 6ft X 3ft. I use to have 2 greenhouses, one big walk-in one which I sold and smaller 4ftX4ft one. I use it to start tomato, pepper, veggie and flowers seeds that I will put in my garden end of April. In CA I grow veggies all year long. Leafy veggies like lettuce, spinach and swiss chard plus root veggies like parsnips, carrots, rutabagas in winter. In summer it is tomatoes, peppers, winter and summer squash. I also have a herb garden. |
I will, was planning on planting peas this week but it's been raining. I also want to plant tomatoes, bell peppers, watermelon, asperagus, squash (summer and winter-specifically Delicata), long beans, okra, canteloupe. I think that's it. I still haven't gone through my seeds to see what I need. |
- Posted by donna_loomis (My Page) on Wed, Mar 25, 09 at 22:47
I plant a vegetable garden every year, and I will plant one this year. But we are being water rationed, so don't know how well we will do. Several years ago, DH and I built raised beds. They are 3 feet wide and altogether are about 70 feet in length. Now, that may not seem like much of a garden, but we have figured out how to grow nearly every vining or trailing thing "up". We have built frames on some of them and devised movable trellises that hang from the frames and I move them around to wherever I need them. Then I use old socks and nylons to tie up the melons as they grow and some of the squash, etc. I use tomato cages for the peas and cucumbers as well as the tomatoes. It makes for an unusual looking garden to say the least, but it works. |
For many years, my DH and I grew all sorts of vegetables in garden with 60' rows. These days I grow only a few varieties: yellow crookneck and zucchini squash, pole beans, Swiss chard, cukes. I love to grow tomatoes, but am not growing them this year as I can no longer eat them. I'm going to try beets and lettuce in containers this year. I'm hoping to avoid critter damage without using fencing. |

I don't know what all I will have in my garden. I will probably let my girls help decide as I won't need all the stuff that comes out of it. Youngest daughter has two greenhouses and raises some starts of veggies and flowers, so will she what she has started. I think I will let her raise the sweet potatoes, though I would love to, but the rabbits like to eat them off before they get a good start. I will probably get just about all the sweet potatoes they raise to do something with. I did last year. We canned a lot of salsa last year. It is good to see that so many are planting a garden no matter how big or small. I too started helping on the farm before I left home with the garden. I had a pony and we didn't have a tiller way back then, so my Dad would hitch my pony to a walk behind cultivator and I would have to ride the pony up and down each row to keep the weeds out. It worked! We used to raise some strawberries and pick them and sell them for $.25 a quart! What would that buy you today, two or three berries? Sue |

Why is it important to be happy? Well, for one thing, by definition, you'll feel better. However, there's more to it than that. Happiness does not just make you enjoy life more, it actually affects how successful you are in both your personal and professional life. The University of California set about the mammoth task of reviewing hundreds of studies in which experimenters cheered up selected people and then monitored the effects of their new-found joy. The overall result was clear – happiness doesn't just flow from success, it actually causes it. Happiness makes people more sociable and altruistic, it increases how much they like themselves and others, and it strengthens their immune systems. The Cumulative effect means that people have satisfying and successful relationships, find especially fulfilling careers and live longer, healthier, lives.
Ask most people what would make them happy and you are likely to receive a two word answer – more money, the need for a fatter wallet consistently tops the 'must have' list for happiness. But is it really possible to buy happiness? The answer comes from a remarkable study conducted in the 1970s by the Northwestern University. The results suggest that while people in very poor nations are not as happy as those in wealthier countries, this relationship vanishes once a country has obtained a relatively modest GNP. Studies examining the possible link between salary and happiness found the same type of pattern. When people can afford the necessities in life, an increase in income does not result in a significantly happier life.
If money cannot buy happiness, what is the best way of putting a long-term smile on your face? The bad news is that research shows that about 50 per cent of your overall sense of happiness is genetically determined. However, the best news is that the remaining 50 per cent is derived from your day to day behaviour, and the way in which you think about yourself and others.
The problem is that much of the advice offered is at odds with the results of scientific research. Take, for example, the power of positive thinking. Does the road to happiness really depend on people being able to simply push negative thoughts out of their mind? Actually, research suggests that such thought suppression is far more likely to increase, rather than decrease, misery.
One study, conducted by Hamilton College in New York, provided a dramatic demonstration of how it affects people's mood and self esteem, they told a group of people to describe their most upsetting thought about themselves, and then had half the group spend the next eleven days trying to push this thought out of their minds. The remaining participants were asked to carry on life as normal. They found the group attempting to actively suppress their negative thoughts were actually thinking about them more. Compared to those going about their business as usual, the suppression group also rated themselves as more anxious, more depressed and having lower self-esteem. So, if thought suppression is not the answer, what can you do? One possibility is to distract yourself: spend time with your family, go to a party, get more involved in your work, take up a new hobby. Although this technique can often provide an effective short term boost, it will probably not lead to a long term sense of contentment.
Handling Negative Stuff
All of us will experience unpleasant and traumatic events during our lives and many types of psychotherapy suggest that the best way forward is to share your pain with others. The belief is that venting your emotions is cathartic and helps you release negative emotions and move forward. Indeed, 90 per cent of the public believe that talking to someone else about a traumatic experience will help ease their pain. But is that really the case? The University of Louvain in Belgium carried out an intriguing, and important, study. A group of participants were asked to select a negative experience from their past and to think about 'the most negative upsetting emotional event in their life, one they still needed to talk about'. From death to divorce and from illness to abuse, the issues were serious. One group of participants were then asked to have a long chat with a supportive experimenter about the event, while a second group were invited to chat about a far more mundane topic – a typical day. Everyone then completed various questionnaires that measured their emotional well-being.
Participants who had spent time talking about their traumatic event thought that the chat had been helpful. However, the various questionnaires told a very different story. In reality the chat had had no significant impact at all. Participants thought that it was beneficial to share their negative emotional experiences, but in terms of the difference it made to how well they were coping, they might just as well have been chatting about a typical day.
So if talking about negative experiences to a sympathetic but untrained individual is a waste of time, what can be done to help ease the pain of the past?
One option involves' expressive writing' – participants who have experienced a traumatic event have been encouraged to spend just a few minutes each day writing a diary-type account of their deepest thoughts and feelings about it. The results revealed that participants experienced a remarkable boost in their psychological and physical well-being, including a reduction in health problems and an increase in self esteem and happiness. Why would talking about a traumatic experience have almost no effect, but writing about it yield such significant benefits?
From a psychological perspective, talking and writing are very different. Talking can often be somewhat unstructured, disorganised, even chaotic. In contrast, writing encourages the creation of a storyline and structure that help people make sense of what has happened and work towards a solution. But can the same type of idea also be used to promote everyday happiness?
The Importance of Gratitude
First, take the research into psychology of gratitude. Three groups of people were asked to spend a few moments each week writing. The first group listed five things for which they were grateful, the second noted down five things that annoyed them and the final group jotted down five events that had taken place during the previous week. The 'gratitude' group remarked on things from seeing the sunset on a summer's day to the generosity of their friends; the 'annoyed' group listed taxes and their children arguing; the 'events' group detailed making breakfast and driving to work. The results were startling. Compared to those in either the 'annoyed' or 'events' groups, those expressing gratitude ended up happier, much more optimistic about the future, physically healthier and even exercised significantly more.
When trying to write your way to a happier life, expressing gratitude is just the tip of the iceberg. In a classic study conducted by the Southern Methodist University, participants were asked to spend a few minutes during four consecutive days describing their ideal future. Another group were asked to imagine a traumatic event that happened to them, and a third group simply wrote about their plans for the day. The results revealed that those who had described their best possible future ended up significantly happier than those in the other groups. Three months later, assessments revealed that compared to a control group, those reliving an intensely happy moment were significantly happier.
The Impact of Writing
Another body of research has examined the idea of 'affectionate writing'. It may come as no great surprise to learn that being in a loving relationship is good for your physical and psychological health. The Arizona State University asked some volunteers to think about someone they loved and spend 20 minutes describing why this person meant so much to them. As a control, another group were asked to write about something that had happened to them during the past week. Each group repeated their writing exercise three times over the course of five weeks. Once again, this simple procedure had a dramatic effect, with those spending just a few minutes engaged in affectionate writing showing a marked increase in happiness, a reduction in stress and even a significant decrease in their cholesterol levels.
In short, certain types of writing have a surprisingly quick and significant impact. Expressing gratitude, thinking about a perfect future and affectionate writing have been scientifically proven to work, and all they require is a pen, a piece of paper and a few moments of your time.
Your Happiness Action Plan
To help incorporate effective writing techniques into your life, write about topics that will help you create a happier future. You should complete the diary on five days of the week, with each entry taking just a few minutes. Maintain the diary for one week. Research suggests that you will quickly notice the difference in mood and happiness, and that these changes may persist for months. If you feel the effects wearing off, simply repeat the exercise again.
There are many things in your life for which you can be grateful. These might include having close friends, being in a loving relationship, being part of a supportive family, enjoying good health, having a roof over your head or enough food to eat. Alternatively, you might have a job you love, have happy memories of the past, recently had a nice experience, such as an especially lovely cup of coffee. Think back over the past week and list three of these things below:
1. _____________________________________________________________________________________________
2. _____________________________________________________________________________________________
3. _____________________________________________________________________________________________
Think about one of the most wonderful experiences in your life. Perhaps a moment when you felt suddenly contented, were in love, saw an incredible performance or had a great time with friends. Choose just one experience, close your eyes and imagine yourself back in that moment in time. Now spend a few moments writing down a description of that experience and how you felt. Simply commit your thoughts to paper.
1. _____________________________________________________________________________________________
2. _____________________________________________________________________________________________
3. _____________________________________________________________________________________________
Spend a few moments writing about your life in the future. Make yourself comfortable, close your eyes. Now, imagine that everything has gone as well as it possibly could. Imagine you have become the person you really want to be, and your personal and professional life feels like a dream come true, put your thoughts down on paper. This will help you feel good and put a smile on your face.
1. _____________________________________________________________________________________________
2. _____________________________________________________________________________________________
3. _____________________________________________________________________________________________
Think about someone in your life who is very important to you. It might be your partner, a close friend or family member. Imagine you only have one opportunity to tell this person how important they are to you. Now write a short letter to this person, describing how much you care for them and the impact they have had on your life.
1. _____________________________________________________________________________________________
2. _____________________________________________________________________________________________
3. _____________________________________________________________________________________________
Time to review. Think back over the past seven days and make a note of three things that went really well for you. The events might be fairly trivial, such as finding a parking space, or more important, such as being offered a new job or opportunity.
1. _____________________________________________________________________________________________
2. _____________________________________________________________________________________________
3. _____________________________________________________________________________________________
Take the first step
I think most of us would really like to seize the opportunity to lead a happier life; but most of us fall at the first fence and fail to take action. Make a commitment to take the first step on your road to happiness. Complete this diary. Believe it or not, it will have a significant impact on your sense of happiness and contentment. I strongly urge you to give it a go and see how you get on. I am convinced you will experience a significant positive shift.

This recipe was disgusting. The yodel snack cakes had worms in them and my child was scarred for life after he learned that he had eaten half of one. Yodel snack cakes are the equivalent of gustatory genocide.
Not only is this a great project for kids, it's a good project for "international" food days in elementary schools and high schools, especially if your short on time!

Been seeking a couch + loveseat to rework for the future Florida nest. Prefer a single bench cushion and they are VERY hard to find. This pair came up on CL for $75. I like the simple lines and rolled arms for stretching out. Forget the fabric pattern and fabric feet- my plan calls for slipcovers or reupholstering (I am in my 3rd semester and these are in my skill range). They would end up a pale neutral with fun pillows. I am very impressed with the fabric pattern match - even the welt is matched! And that makes me think the innerds may be also well done. They seem deep - almost like the back cushions are missing, but I can work with that given a $75 base cost. I am waiting for measurements and more info on construction. What do you think? Tips on what to look for when I view them? |
Follow-Up Postings:
They remind me of the first sofa I bought. It was a custom order and really well made. Well enough made that I paid to have it recovered twice. I loved that sofa, so I'm probably biased in favor of it, but if it sits comfortably and doesn't have a bad odor to it, I'd go for it. If they are really that deep, pull the pillows and you have an extra bed for the little ones. |
They do look as if they need pillows in the back, so that would be my only hesitation because in my mind that completely negates the look and ease of a single seat cushion. I also prefer a single seat cushion - so comfortable and clean looking. Lots of back pillows gets that fussy thing going. Wonder if there might be other options? At that price, I'd probably grab them and figure out the details later. Your slipcover or reupholstering idea sounds perfect. |

Wow ... Although they appear to be missing cushions in the back, for $75 they are worth it. If the frame doesn't wobble and the upholstery doesn't stink ... buy it. |

That looks like a great napping couch! One of my BFF's "sofa-test" is the ease of sitting on the couch and turning sideways and placing her arm along the back in a relaxed conversational pose. That sofa would definitely pass the test! |

dlm, lots of loose back pillows are a worry, as I hate that endless straightening of loose pillows. I could make one or two thick and wide back cushions for each. Maybe velcroed in place, maybe not - definitely removeable for naps. Accent with some fun loose pillows. Good point though, because I have a couple small rescue dogs that think they are cats and like to stretch across furniture back cushions. They make maddening karate chop dents in any/all loose back cushions. Having tight backs on my current LR sofas has been a relief. I do see this space as relaxed and casual though, so maybe the pillows being dented or in disarray won't bother me so much. I once had a sofa with five large loose coordinated back cushions that somehow demanded to be 'just so' - about drove me crazy... Lascatx, glad you like em, and they would make perfect overflow sleeping spots. Changingitup, that pix does capture how I imagine they could end up looking. The scale of the arms seems just right. So may arms are too big, too small, too high, too something... and I do crave replicating the single bench cushions I have in LR now. OK, so twist and tug on the arms. Got it. A friend also suggested looking and feeling underneath, maybe with a flashlite to see through the dust cloth piece, hoping for sturdy coil springs. Maybe unscrew a bun foot hoping to see wood type and finish and whether the corners are blocked, etc. Other ideas? |
I wouldn't do box cushions on the back. If you had 2 plush knife edge pillows, that would look nice. And, with 2, as opposed to one long back pillow, you can take one and turn it sideways so it's against the arm for putting your feet up with a book - my preferred reading position! Now this is just me, but I's also ditch the box detail on the bottom cushion and make it a center welt - or even weltless as that's my picture for a Florida nest! You've got my wheels turning - hope they are decent quality when you see them. You can tell a lot just by picking up one end and getting a sense of the weight. Check for padding at the corners, fronts of the arms, places you don't normally feel when you're sitting. Cheap furniture will often wrap the fabric right over the frame and it will wear out. If there's a dust cover on the bottom you won't see much but if not, you'll see how it's all put together. |

Some time ago, Packt Publishing sent me a copy of Hacking Vim: A Cookbook to get the Most out of the Latest Vim Editor by Kim Shulz to review. I read through it pretty quickly and I must say I thought it was a good book for the most part. The book is definitely focused at a very niche audience as there aren't a lot of us Vimmers around. Furthermore, I can't say I'd recommend the book for the casual Vimmer or those that use only ViEmu in Visual Studio. If, however, you are a moderate to hardcore Vim user or are interested in becoming one I would definitely recommend grabbing a copy.
There is a lot of information in this book. It wastes no time or space describing the many ways to make your Vim experience even more efficient than it already is. Because of its very cut and dry style it reads more like a reference book than anything else, but I think that's perfectly fine for this style of book. It is essentially a slightly more readable, more detailed and better written version of a lot of the Vim help. It's also nice because in many of the chapters, especially the first few ("Better Navigation" and "Production Boosters") you can pick up a lot of interesting tips. I even learned a few handy commands I had no idea about.
There's plenty of good information on writing Vim plugins and customizing Vim that I wish I would have had six years back when I wrote Vim plugins. Ah, looking at that code brings back fond memories, mostly involving learning Regular Expressions through trial and error and I actually used /// comments in C# code, but I digress.
I also liked the stuff on firing Ruby from Vim--it reminded me I need to get a Ruby environment set up in Vim. Oh, and just for fun it seems, Kim even included an appendix showcasing some of the ridiculous things that have been written for Vim like Nibbles and Rubik's Cube. Heck, I just found a Twitter client for Vim (yea, I twitter now in case you care).
There are a few things wrong with it though. Some things are too close to the Vim built-in help and you're probably better off just looking there. Also, the index isn't very useful and it'd be nice to have a searchable version of the book as well, so maybe the eBook version is a good idea. I wish all book companies would bundle eBooks with paper books, but, I digress again. Like I said, there is a lot of information in this book. It's not for everyone, but I think most Vim users will find plenty of useful stuff in its pages.

SwiftKey is definitely the 3rd-party keyboard of favor here at Android Police (just ask Artem or Cameron), and there's no doubt in our minds that it's worth four bucks. But at two bucks, it's an absolute steal. Today and tomorrow only (November 22nd and 23rd), SwiftKey will be on sale, and that includes the phone version as well as the tablet-optimized edition. That means for the price of one SwiftKey, you can get two!
SwiftKey has issued an incremental update to its apps for Android phones and tablets this morning, headlined by the addition of continuous voice typing (dictation mode) and new themes.
Voice dictation support is available only for handsets running Android 4.0 or above, and can be accessed by long-pressing the comma. The two new themes are Sky (blue) and Fuchsia (pink) which, should you desire your keyboard to have a little more pop, pile onto an already large library of options.
We took you on a brief walkthrough of the SwiftKey X beta several weeks ago, and now this psychic keyboard has shed its beta skin and emerged as a fully-developed app. TouchType also pushed out a version of SwiftKey optimized for tablets, appropriately dubbed SwiftKey Tablet X. Both keyboards are using TouchType's Fluency 2.0 artificial intelligence engine to crawl deep into your brain and pull out the next word that's on the tip of your fingers - and it actually works reasonably well.
At the end of CES, right after the barrage of almost 100 Android tablet announcements, SwiftKey teased us with a new version of its popular keyboard, specifically targeting tablets. The company later officially announced the new product, complete with a Tron-like, mysteriously glowing UI. The split-key design, especially useful for larger tablets, looked like a real winner to tablet owners.
Today, the first beta of SwiftKey for Tablets v220.127.116.11 was released to VIP members in the SwiftKey forum, and, of course, I immediately took it out for a spin.

Android phones are much fun if you seek to get maximum use out of it and enjoy the advantages that come with it. For example, rooting the device to be able to access the root-only applications, custom-software ROM's, Custom themes, more fun applications, improved speed and performance, increasing the device's battery life, installing unsupported applications and backing up the device. Once in a while, the user may want to return to stock. This is where unrooting of the device may be considered. For any unrooting procedure, the device must have been rooted. This means that the warrant of the phone is restored and the user can continue enjoying its privileges. However, unrooting the device makes it impossible to run any root only applications. It is therefore advisable for you to remove such applications.
Unroot the Samsung Galaxy Note 2
Unrooting the device is achieved by the following simple steps:
1. Ensure that the device's battery is fully charged.
2. Download ODIN from here and Stock Firmware here and save them on the PC's desktop.
3. Unzip the files from the archives to the desktop and launch ODIN executable file by double-clicking.
4. Ensure the 'Auto reboot' and 'F Reset' time boxes are checked in the ODIN.
5. Select the 'PDA' button and choose the Stock Firmware and leave the 'repartition' box unchecked.
6. Switch of your Samsung Galaxy Note 2 (N7100) for a while.
7. By pressing the 'Volume Down', 'Home' and 'Power' buttons simultaneously, reboot the phone into 'download mode.
8. Next, using the USB cable, connect your device to the PC and click on 'start' button for it to flash the firmware. This should lead to complete 'reboot' of your device.
9. And with that, you have successfully unrooted your device.
An extra guide to this procedure can be found here:

Accidents never happen when murder's involved
Emaculate tactics so follow me, if you need me just call on me
from TDE (Ft. Ab-Soul, Isaiah Rashad, Jay Rock, Kendrick Lamar & ScHoolboy Q) – BET Cypher 2013 Lyrics on Genius
This is Kendrick telling everyone that nothing you hear in this verse is an accident. Nothing said in this verse is a coincidence.
Kendrick equates this verse to murder and states that there are no words or phrases were used by accident. Kendrick is a lyricist, and like all other lyricist he puts his verses together very carefully and strategically down to every single word.
So when you hear a phrase like "Aint Nothing Been The Same since they dropped control", just know that it didn't end up there by chance, He put it there for a reason.

As I was unpacking some hostas that arrived today I turned around and found this:
A new breed of hosta? |
Follow-Up Postings:
I LOVE IT, Jen!! Gotta get me one of those--wait, I have two very similar to yours! LOL |
Awww! Now that's one I would want in my collection. I have 5, yes five!!! similar to that, so I have a good start on my "collection", lol. Beautiful kitty, Margo. Janet |
I think I know why your kitty was looking over your hosta, Jen! I notice that he/she may have been thumbing through a 'catalog' to the right? Maybe checking to see if it was the one he/she had ordered when you weren't looking!!! Cats are so smart--you know! ;o) |
I think she was reading the hosta journal before checking out the new arrivals. As long as she's paying she can order as many hostas as she wants. She would probably look for the ones that taste the best. |
She knows hostas are vole magnets! Just waiting for that mousie to visit! Linda C |
LOL--good one, Linda!!!! |

Browsing the shops has taken on a whole new meaning thanks to technology – what used to be window shopping at the mall now begins at home with your internet browser.

Fashion at your fingertips
With online retail set to hit $2 billion in the UAE by 2016, Khulekani Madlela goes behind the scenes at one of the Dubai-based companies paving the way, to discover why more of us will become more stylish – with the click of a mouse
- Image Credit: Dennis B. Mallari/ANM
- Stylist Shloka Hiranandani gets every item on sale ready for its close-up.
Just a few years ago people were still wary of the click-to-buy process, but today the ease of simply clicking a mouse to have an item delivered to your door is now the normal way of shopping for millions of people around the globe. Internet retail sales are forecast to reach $327 billion by 2016 in the US, according to market research firm Forrester, while people in the UK spent £68.2 billion on the internet in 2011, an increase of almost £10 billion
on the year before.
While the UAE is still in the early stages of growth by comparison, those of us making use of internet shopping rose in the region from 23 per cent in 2005 to 73 per cent in 2010 according to Euromonitor, and the market is forecast to grow to $2.09 billion by 2016.
Online shops run by trendy young professionals like Dubai-based Namshi.com are paving the way. Co-founded in 2011 by Faraz Khalid, Mohammad Mekki, Louis Lebbos and Hosam Arab, this one-stop e-shop boasts a wide selection of merchandise for men, women and children and has partnered with Aramex to offer free delivery on goods across the GCC.
So why has online shopping taken off here in such a big way? It's a no-brainer for most consumers says Wael Al Fatayri, buyer at Namshi. "It saves a lot of time – there's huge variety and many different categories available in one spot so consumers can visit several brands just with the click of a mouse, while getting detailed information about fabrics and designers at the same time."
Flexible payment options have made shopping on the net an even more attractive prospect, he continues. "Retailers like us don't charge for shipment, and consumers can pay online or pay cash upon delivery if they prefer – which many do."
Although in the past people may have been dubious about the quality of the goods they are buying online, Namshi and many other retailers have worked hard to dispel this fear. "We have a 14-day return policy," says Namshi senior buyer, Ketki Chandavarkar.
"If a consumer is not satisfied with the product they can exchange it provided it still has a tag and the product is still intact. We also check products before they leave the warehouse. The statistics on returns in terms of ecommerce are way below average."
But with such a fast-moving market, Namshi and its competitiors have to work hard to stay on top of what's hot. "We monitor various platforms like WGSN, an online fashion forecasting tool that identifies and analyses key forthcoming trends," says Georgina Hills, buying manager for Namshi Apparel division.
"We also look at what celebrities are wearing; they are influential because people want to look like them."
How people dress on the street is another inspiration, says Wael. "Trends are determined by what's selling on the high street; customer demand determines what becomes more fashionable. Catwalk trends are also important as they influence people's wardrobes, so we visit various fashion shows and look at magazines' fashion pages and other features."
Perhaps surprisingly, premium luxury brands do very well online, says Ketki. "Alexander McQueen, Tom Ford and Karl Lagerfeld are very popular and in footwear Jeffrey Campbell is doing well." While dresses, handbags and sandals are top performers, T-shirts, particularly polo shirts from the brand Fifteen Minutes, are doing very well, says Georgina. International and local brands have great exposure on the net, which they might not otherwise find in-store. "Finders Keepers, a hip Australian brand, is fast gaining popularity in the region," says Wael. "Local designers like Julea Domani and Aanchal Chanda, a jewellery brand are also a huge draw."
Although the company is young both in terms of its age and the age of its staff, the team is looking to expand beyond the UAE and Saudia Arabia to penetrate other markets. "We want to be the biggest online destination in the region," says Georgina.
One thing's for sure – with the ever-increasing speed and capacity of e-tailers and growing desire for convenience in consumers, the online retail market in the region is set to grow and grow.
The story behind your online shop
When you log on for your fashion fix online, months of work has already gone into researching and sourcing the latest trends by the buying teams at internet retailers like Namshi.
Once the products have been sourced and received at the office, every single item has to be styled and photographed on a mannequin by the production team. At Namshi this consists of stylists like Shloka Hiranandani. "If I want to sell a dress I pair it with shoes that don't overpower it but still look good, like a pair of understated black heels," she says. "If I wanted to sell the shoes themselves I'd team them with a one-toned dress so that the focus goes to the shoes."
Next, the content writing team give descriptions of the products. "We write a lot about the style, material, laundering instructions, and the brand, then upload the material on the web," says Nabeela Ali, content writer.
When the material is uploaded people can order the items online, as demonstrated by Namal Siddiqui, PR executive and blogger for Namshi (pictured above left).
Then the item goes into storage, ready for it to be ordered. "We have about 100,000 pieces in stock," says Satish Thayyur, operations director. "We get around 300-350 orders a day and dispatch orders 24/7 through our partner Aramex every day except Friday."

Howdy ALL!
I'm new to the boards - and each time it gets closer to my trip to Disneyworld - I get thirsty for knowledge and news...so this is another way for me to achieve that goal - besides the WDWRadio Podcast alone.
I am always so sad when it's over!
I am married, 11years now, have one son (3) - his birthday is December 29th - and he celebrated his 1yr birthday IN Disneyworld in January 2007 w/my In-laws...which wasn't THAT bad of a trip!
We have traveled to Disneyworld each year since he was born and in 2009 - we are going TWICE!
June 2009 will be a 3nt stay at the Wilderness Lodge and a 4nt Cruise on the Disney Wonder!
December 2009 will be a 7nt stay at the Polynesian Resort in a Concierge level room! Can't wait!!!
Myself - I have traveled to Disneyworld since I was born - over 36 yrs now! In fact, I work for Southwest Airlines and have had plenty of opportunity to JUMP on an airplane headed for Orlando and just get on over to the parks and have some fun - even if it's a day-trip! So - I visited plenty of times...but it has never been as much fun as it is now with my 3-year old!!!
So - if you need any airline advice (Southwest is my specialty) or advice or tips on traveling with a 3-year old - I'm your guy!!!!
Thanks for the wonderful invitation to the boards and THANKS LOU for running an awesome podcast!!!

Within minutes of our announcement that Kenny Ortega has signed on to direct a Dirty Dancing reboot, many of you had already echoed my own reaction to the news. (EWWWWW.com.) It struck me violently in the face that perhaps the horror of this situation can best be expressed by the original Baby, Jennifer Grey herself.

Armand Lobato, The Produce AisleAndrew Carnegie once said that the way to become rich is to put all your eggs in one basket — and then watch that basket!
That's good advice for a produce manager too.
OK, perhaps we take the advice not so much to get rich but to ensure that the produce aisle is running as efficiently as possible.
Take for example, the simple process of reviewing an invoice. The paperwork for a produce delivery from a distribution center commonly gets dropped on the receiving desk — and disregarded.
This can spell trouble. Paperwork frequently gets lost. It falls behind a prep table or gets tossed in the trash. Most of the time when this happens a manager may say, "I assume what I got billed for will be correct anyhow, the billing will show up on my statement. No big deal."
Bad assumption. Mistakes happen on that paperwork all the time.
Billing invoices from any vendor need to be handled with care, even those from a warehouse that some managers say, "Those aren't real invoices — basically just a packing slip."
Once a produce load is received and put away, the following steps should always be taken:
- Check quantities received versus what is on the invoice. Sounds like a no-brainer, but if you ordered 21 cases of apples and only received 14 you're short, and it will cost you if it isn't documented.
- Check the pack sizes against what was received. Depending on the time of year, a pack change can happen overnight. Were you charged for two-layer stone fruit but received bulk? Did you receive 11-pound asparagus cartons but charged for a 28-pound pack? Nobody means for this to occur, but when it happens it can create a jolt of paper shrink if the error goes undetected.
- Check the costs. If your initial ad-item distribution doesn't reflect the lower ad costs for example, this could mean you are getting off to a rocky start.
- Check the quality. While putting everything away, it's essential to pop some lids and inspect what is being received. Warehouses run efficiently for the most part, but damaged or poor quality items can slip through the cracks.
- Check to make sure you have the right paperwork. If nothing matches, chances are you may have received the wrong paperwork or even the wrong delivery.
Overlooking any step can threaten the efficiency or accountability of a produce department, even if all other facets of management are sound. Whether the problem is shortages, quality, cost or pack discrepancies, it's up the manager to get on the phone and straighten out the problem right away.
And these are just some of the "eggs" in our proverbial produce basket.
Armand Lobato works for the Idaho Potato Commission. His 30 years of experience in the produce business span a range of foodservice and retail positions.

Meet Margarita Levieva
Episode 6 of "How to Make It in America" introduced Ben Epstein's new love interest Julie, also know as Margarita Levieva.
Margarita was born in Leningrad, Russia. At an early age, she began the rigorous training of a competitive gymnast that let her to becoming a member of the Russian rhythmic gymnastics Olympic team.
When she was 11, Levieva's mother moved her to Brooklyn in New York City. Levieva majored in economics at NYU and worked as a fashion buyer. Her continuing interest in acting led her to be accepted into the Meisner Training Program at the William Esper Studio. She got her first big break with a staring role in the t.v. series "Vanished," and her breakout movie role in "Spread" playing opposite Ashton Kutcher.
Bryan Greenberg Reforms Health Care In America
Last night marked a historic night in our country, as congress moved to pass health care reform. Love it or hate it you can't deny its significance. You might remember the "Yes We Can" video that was produced by Will.i.am of the Black Eyed Peas during President Obama's campaign. Check out our own Bryan Greenberg in the video several times.
Coming Soon: Aloe Blacc's Official "I Need A Dollar" Music Video
Aloe Blacc, the musician that stole the show from Luis Guzman, who stole the show from Bryan Greenberg, is set to release the official music video for his hit song "I Need A Dollar." This is the lead single from Aloe Blacc's forth coming album Good Things. The album is produced by Truth & Soul, and features the backing from the band known as Expressions and El Michels Affair. Production on the music video is wrapping up this month, and the album is coming to stores soon, and for you vinyl junkies out there, "I Need A Dollar" will be in stores on 12-inch in April. Stay tuned, more details coming soon.
Blacc describes himself as a musician. He has produced music in many genres from country and folk to hip-hop and dancehall. "Whatever I make depends on what instrument I choose to pick up at the time; the guitar usually brings something alternative out, while the keys direct me to a more soulful composition. Most times I just make some banging hip hop."
A So Cal native Aloe Blacc began his recording career as an MC back in 1995, when he joined up with hip-hop producer Exile to form the mainstay indie rap group, Emanon. A few years later, Aloe would stow away on a Lootpack European tour and become fast friends with Oh No a relationship which led to many fruitful collaborations as a solo artist.
These days, Aloe Blacc has evolved into a true Renaissance man. Recordings like his Latin cover of John Legends Ordinary People prove that not only can this multi-instrumentalist produce, rap and sing but he can flip it in Spanish, too. With an amazingly broad set of influences ranging widely from the acoustic guitar stylings of folk artist Cat Stevens, to the soul-stirring sounds of the Negro Spirituals, Aloe prides himself on the spectrum of his musical roots. His sound often forays into the digital R&B realm, but always grooves with a tinge of Latin and the pulse of hip-hop.

We're not sure if Saturday Night Live's "Sprockets" skit inspired these humorous DJs to create German aliases but we're all about it here at Do Androids Dance. First, we had DJ Hanzel (the German alter ego of Dillon Francis) who trolled everyone by dropping a "Von Deeper" set at the Mad Decent Block Party; now we have Yung Gräfenburg (aka DJ Greggyballz) (aka G-Buck) dropping "Make You Work," which uses Nelly Furtado's "Man Eater" to create a very fun and danceable tune which reminds me of Miami booty bass music.
Whether or not these German aliases are created to make us laugh or as a means to experiment with different genres and sounds that wouldn't fit under their moniker is something we do not yet know, but if tunes like these keep happening as an end result, we're not complaining. (Speaking of laughing be sure to look up "Gräfenberg" on Google for a quick history lesson). All I have to say is that we here at Do Androids Dance would love to see a German alias collaboration, so what do you say DJ Hanzel and Yung Gräfenberg? While we wait for this collab be sure to check out "Make You Work" and let us know what you think.
