Please help our rat tails have went crazy can anyone suggest a way to can , freeze, dry recipes to use this in hate to see them got to waste no way to eat them all
thanks |

I'd never heard of them and had to look them up. Here is some interesting information for those of you who also have never heard of them... |
Here is a link that might be useful: Rat-Tailed Radish
You can coarse grate them and freeze. Then just break off a chunk, thaw, and use them in salads, soups and stews when thawed - the texture isn't great but the taste is there. You can also slice them, dip in lemon juice and dry them. The will rehydrate easily. But again, the uses are limited. Just depends on how much you like them. ;) Dave |
These two "radish" recipes are in my "To Try" file. But, heck if you have an overabundance, give them a try and let us know. From what I read in the link rachelellen sent, it sounds as if the rat-tail variety could be substituted for root variety. Deanna (makes no claims to the recipe quality, have not tried them) Radish Salsa ___________________________________ Radish Relish (posted by gardenlad on this forum) |
Apparently there is some misunderstanding about rat tail radishes. They are grown for their seed pods, not for roots. Regular radish recipes aren't appropriate. Jim |
I was wondering what a 'r_e_dish' was? |
After reading the link above and seeing this: Flavor and cookery Pods are soft but crisp. When you bite into a pod you know you are eating a radish, and a pungent one at that, yet the flavor is more delicate and refined than that of a root radish. The texture is like that of a juicy chile pepper, which adds excitement to the experience, and appeals to people (like me) who don't crave root radishes. I thought they might be used in a relish. If the texture is similiar to a chile pepper......... I have never eaten one though and could very well be "off base". Deanna |
Hi everyone, I was given some radishes today, more than I can eat fresh and I was thinking of trying the radish relish recipe above after I found it through the search feature and I was just going to see if anyone has made it, and if so how did it turn out and also make sure it is safe to use. If anyone has any other radish recipes I would love to hear them! Thanks Carly |
Gee not everyone proof reads their posts.. grin. |

http://www.wtnh.com/dpp/news/crime/d...obbery-attemptRestaurant owner shoots, kills robber
Second robbery suspect still sought
Updated: Tuesday, 28 Sep 2010, 12:04 AM EDT
Published : Monday, 27 Sep 2010, 6:03 AM EDT
Bridgeport, Conn. (WTNH) - Police say a Bridgeport restaurant owner shot and killed one of two men who tried to hold up his establishment Sunday night.
The shooting happened at Peking Restaurant on Wade Street around 9:30pm. The deceased has been identified as 21-year old Allen Dixon of Bridgeport.
Police say the two would-be robbers entered the restaurant and ordered food. When the register was open, Dixon pulled out a gun, threatened the employees and reached over the counter and grabbed money from the register. Dixon then turned toward the restaurant's owner, who was sitting at a table. That's when the owner pulled out his own weapon and fired one shot at Dixon, hitting him in the chest.
We're told the owner was licensed to carry the gun.
Dixon dropped his weapon on the ground outside the restaurant before he and his accomplice fled in a car. He only made it a few blocks before he died and crashed his vehicle.
The second suspect fled from the vehicle and is still being sought.

Alberto Gonzales: Don't Blame Me! George Washington Did It!
I don't know whether to laugh or cry! Alberto Gonzales, our cluessless, law-breaking Attorney General, says that George Washington and Abe Lincoln were doing more spying than BushCo, and on a greater scale!
During today's Senate Judiciary Committee hearing, Gonzales said: "President Washington, President Lincoln, President Wilson, President Roosevelt have all authorized electronic surveillance on a far broader scale."
Ok, call me crazy here. I would imagine that during George Washington's time, electronic surveillance wasn't exactly something our first President had at his disposal, if only because we were not as technologically advanced then as we are now. Secondly, let's just say, Alberto, for the sake of argument, that George Washington and Abe Lincoln did do electronic surveillance. That doesn't necessarily mean you have the right to follow suit! If you saw someone jump off a cliff, does that mean you're supposed to jump off the cliff as well?

Ugh, I am sick again. This is my fourth cold this year, and it's only August. Why has my immune system gone to shit this year? I don't understand. I've been so over the past few weeks too. All the time, even in the middle of the day.
Except now it's past 3:30 in the morning, and I'm not even remotely tired even though I've been up way longer than normal. Hmm. Hey, you know what? Fuck it. I'm not even gonna try to understand anymore. I am just gonna accept the fact that sometimes I am randomly a zombie.
FCG won't talk to me. I tried to a few days ago and she never responded. But it's not just me, apparently. One of our friends asked me a couple days ago if I had talked to her recently, and I said I talked to her throughout the summer but haven't really been able to reach her since school started. She said she hadn't heard from FCG in a while either. FCG was really upset last week right before she deleted her Facebook... I hope she's alright. I'm very worried about her. If she were here, I would hug her and stroke her hair the way she likes and say, "FCG, you are beautiful, and whatever hurt you can go eat a bowl of fried goat penises."
Anyway, I feel the need to share more delicious dumbfuckery courtesy of my mother.
The air conditioners in most of my classrooms at school are broken. It averages about 100 degrees Fahrenheit here in August. This is bullshit. The air conditioner in my car is also broken! Yay, roasting in the 100 degree heat for about 7 hours a day is SO FUCKING ORGASMIC! Except not.
Hmm, what else has happened? Oh, my Pre-Cal teacher just randomly decided we have a test tomorrow. No warning or anything. Just halfway through class she said, "Oh, and there's a test tomorrow." Fuck her. And that Speech teacher did the same thing! At least that stuff is just common sense, though.
And some stupid fucknugget upset FCG. I don't know what happened, really, only that she posted a very upset Facebook status last night and then deleted her Facebook. So now I can't keep up with her on Facebook and actually have to talk to her more. Naturally, I am panicking. I'm gonna talk to her later this week... I hope it goes better than last time.
But that's not the nincompoopery I'm here to tell you guys about. Oh, no, it gets way worse. That's just the nincompoopery of the general universe. You guys want to hear about the really good stuff... And that, my friends, is the nincompoopery of my mother, who is basically a 12-year-old girl in a 42-year-old body.
Remember back around May, when I had a stupid eye infection? Yeah, I have one again. It feels like shit. I'm just glad it's not noticeable unless you are, like, three inches away from my face. I don't understand why I get them. I don't put anything gross near my eye, or share makeup, or wear contacts, or anything like that. My health hasn't been what it normally is this entire year, though, really. I mean, I've had two eye infections, a kidney stone, and three colds. Usually I only get about two colds and that's all.
It's awful, though, and horribly annoying. It hurts to close my eyes, which frustrates me greatly. It also hurts like a bitch to cry while having one of these things. On the bright side, I get to skip the awful pep rally on Friday to go get some medicine for it.
(Yeah, I've been attempting to see the bright side of things lately, even little things. I think it would do me good!)
Completely and utterly swamped with tests this week. Don't even care. I will probably only really try to study for English because I don't want Mrs. English Teacher, who is awesome, to think I am a dumbass.
Also, in that public speaking class, the teacher assigned us a random partner and we have to ask that person about themselves, and then we have to tell the class about them in a speech. I was kind of hoping I'd either get a friend or a cute girl, but I got some senior guy I don't even know... Like, I'm not even sure which guy he is. Ugh, it's going to be so awkward. Of course, my friends all got each other. I hate those stupid assignments where you have to tell about yourself. Always have. What the fuck am I supposed to say? "Hi, I'm Super Duck. My favorite color is purple, I like kittens, and my entire life consists of wasting time on the internet, drawing, and hating all of my surroundings!"?
So, yeah, everything school-wise is pretty much shit again! That didn't take long.
School has officially begun... I guess I'll write about my schedule a little.
1.) Pre-Calculus. This teacher is obviously under the impression that everyone is stupid. Everyone told me that it would be like this, but alas, I did not listen! I learned for myself, though. She made us take hardcore detailed notes... on plotting points on graphs. However, I think this might just be the easiest class to bullshit EVER. She barely even checks homework. If you turn it in and look like you put forth an effort, you get full credit.
2.) English. I don't really know my English teacher well enough to form a solid opinion, as my first impressions are often wrong, but I feel drawn to her somehow. Not in like, an "OMG I WANNA BANG MY TEACHER" kind of way, because I don't, it's not like that, but like... I legitimately want to be her best friend! Hahaha! She is awesome so far! She told us today that her entire motivation for teaching high school English was because it sucked ass for her, and she wanted to make it suck less for future people.
I just got back from visiting some relatives about 5 hours away. I like it there; it sucks less. There's one part of every trip I hate, though... Coming back. I don't even have a word for how I felt. I cried so hard when the landscape turned flat and ugly and familiar sights came into view. The sorry excuse for a mall, the dilapidated buildings, the empty fields... This is not my home. This will never be my home.
I can't make it 2 more years here. I can't. I don't know what I'm gonna do. I'm coming undone. Every day I spend here is a gigantic waste of my life. I wouldn't ever wish this town on anybody. I shouldn't have come back from the trip. I should've just stayed there. After all, how much do I really have to come back to?
I'm sorry, you guys. You don't want to read all this blathering. It's just whiny crap; I don't think I even say anything important in here. I just need to write it somewhere. I'm feeling like complete and utter shit right now. It doesn't help that school is starting tomorrow. Well, sort of. I have to go and get my schedule and stuff and stay until lunchtime. Then, on Wednesday, it starts for real.
Is it weird that I can't handle ANYONE touching any of my posessions without my permission? Like, if my mom comes in randomly and opens my closet I'm like ARRGH NO STOP IT even though there isn't really anything to hide in there. I don't want anyone opening drawers or touching anything on my desk, and it makes me seriously mad when it happens. I can't have anyone touching my phone or laptop or anything like that. I won't let anyone hold my sketchbook, either; they can only see the pictures I show to them. One time I even freaked out on FCG for opening my purse.
YOU FUCKING GUYS I FEEL SO GOOD RIGHT NOW I CAN'T EVEN. I AM NOT AT ALL LIKE I WAS FOR THE PAST WEEK OR SO. I AM LIKE A NEW FUCKING SUPER DUCK OR SOMETHING. I DON'T EVEN KNOW, MAN. In fact I can't even begin to tell you what I'm like right now, so here's a .gif I found on Tumblr:
Now the reason I am like that is probably pretty lame-sounding, but I've been so terrible lately that everything good is automatically amazing. BUT I AM LIKE SO GOOD RIGHT NOW HOLY SHIT anyway so let me explain!
So, once upon a time, there was a Lame Super Duck. Lame Super Duck was just doing her summer homework and cleaning her closet, minding her own business, you know? Well, she felt like SHIT! So she thought about things that would make her feel better if she did them. "Burn school" and "TP Mrs. History Teacher's house" were not plausible, so she went with the third best option. Text FCG!
I haven't felt like myself in a couple days. I think I'm sick... I feel like complete and utter shit, and I have for the past few days. My chest and stomach hurt, and last night so did the area around my eyes, but I think that's because I didn't sleep the night before. I'm tired all the time too, but next week there will be a few all-nighters to finish up my history homework and, if I have time, my summer reading books for English. If I don't have time, then I can just go on SparkNotes like I've done every year since 8th grade. I didn't do anything tiring at work yesterday, and all I did after that was buy some notebooks and such for school, but last night I was so worn down I didn't even want to get up off of my bed.
I've felt really bad on the inside too lately. I just feel so blah, and yesterday I cried the entire time I was driving to Walmart. Hell, I don't even know what I cried about. I'm like an emotional landmine; everything sets me off right now. I cried a couple days ago because I asked my mom where some meat was, and she yelled at me for being dumb. And then yesterday I was listening to this music and I started getting all teary.
I WAS going to tell you all about the good things that happened today, and maybe I still will, but my mom just... I don't even know. I'm really pissed at her right now.
Whenever she gets back from a trip, she always acts all fake nice for a day or so, then she reverts back to her normal bitchy self. By the time I got in tonight, she had returned, and she did the annoying thing where she squeezes me to death and pretends to have missed me. After I had managed to struggle free, she dropped the bomb.
"Today I asked your dad to get back together with me, but he said no..."
No fucking shit he rejected you. He hates you AND he's been in a relationship with someone else, an actual nice lady, for 2 years now.
"I know he'll want to eventually, though. That's why I never actually signed the divorce papers. He WILL want me again one day."
...WHAT? So THAT'S how you've been able to mooch off of him! That's fucking low.
Today, I did literally nothing at work today. There were NO PEOPLE. Now I'm attempting not to make another huge baking fail like last night. I burned my thumb...
I talked to FCG yesterday. She asked me if I was excited to be in 11th grade. Ughhh, I would rather play in traffic, but I didn't tell her that. Hahaha. I don't want her to know just how much I dread it, so I just simply said no. She is soooo excited to go to college. She was telling me all about it, complete with 6 exclamation points. I'm trying really hard to be happy for her; I miss her a lot and school is going to be really different without her, but I know this town sucks ass and she's glad to be getting out. And besides, the thought of a happy FCG makes me feel a little better. :) Oh, apparently her phone is broken now. I was gonna put off talking to her until today, but it's a good thing I decided to go ahead and do it.
Today, my least favorite person ever came into the store. My chemistry teacher from 10th grade... Ugh, she was terrible. You know, the one who told me I was never going anywhere in life? The one who didn't know how to do any math at all and mispronounced every other word? The one who abandoned us on exam review day, then refused to get the test rescheduled? Yeah, that one. There's a chance I could have her as a homeroom teacher this year. That thought makes me want to curl into a ball on my bedroom floor and vomit. My second option for homeroom is Mrs. History Teacher, which is not much better. The only even slightly okay option is the pre-cal teacher. I must get her; I can't deal with those other two first thing in the morning. Or ever, really, but especially not at 8 a.m.
Right across the street from where I work is a tiny grocery store. I don't know its name; it has no sign or anything. In my family, it is known as "The Nasty Store," which I will explain in a minute. I'm surprised it's still in business, really, because usually people either go to the nearest Walmart (20 minute drive) or the gas station for food. The gas station actually has really good cooked food, plus basic things like bread and milk.
When I was about 2 or 3, my grandma took me in there, and I apparently yelled out, "WOW, THIS STORE IS REALLY NASTY, GRANNY! :D IT'S THE NASTY STORE! NASTY STORE, NASTY STORE!" I haven't been back since. Hahaha.
Until today.
My mom has been gone for a month, and she immediately starts bitching and whining the second she walks in the door. I wish she'd just get the hell out again. Can't stand her. She was mad because there was a cup in the sink (Wow, maybe I actually have things do to do during the day and can't empty the dishwasher until the afternoon!) and then because the house wasn't just totally stocked with fresh groceries. I did go grocery shopping last week... but I kind of, you know, had to eat a little. She also started crying because I didn't have any salad stuff, and she wanted salad. You know, they make this thing called a grocery store.
She literally just started crying AGAIN and saying she was going to have a heart attack because she left some makeup at her friend's house. OH NO, IT'S THE END OF THE WORLD. It's not like her friend can like, mail it to her or anything. Nope. The sun is not going to come up tomorrow, and we will all drop dead. Now, I am a 16-year-old girl who loves her sparkly purple eyeshadow, but I don't think I'd CRY and SAY I WAS GOING TO DIE if I left it somewhere.
I CAN MAKE DELICIOUS FOOD ALL BY MYSELF! :D Well, things from a box mix, at least. But I am still proud of myself because my idea of making food is generally limited to frozen dinners and instant noodles. I FEEL SO POWERFUL.
I ate like such a pig today. Hahaha. Well, I was happy, okay!? I'll say why in a minute.
It has come to my attention that I should probably start on my summer homework, but I'm not motivated. We "won't be able to do all that homework the night before it's due," Mrs. History Teacher? Well, I have but one thing to say to that...

i've had goats in the past but never these. i recently decided to add a few goats to the farm, more for pets than anything else. there is a breeder not far from me who has several youngsters for sale.
i have 3 great danes. they are all very gentle. however, they are also extremely playful. until recently, i had 2 miniature horses. the dogs and horses played tag constantly, horses INside the fence, dogs running up and down OUTside. most often, the little horses started these games of tag and their enjoyment was obvious. the dogs were NEVER allowed inside the dry lot with the horses. my question is this...i know these goats "faint" due to being startled. would they get used to the dogs running and barking or would this sort of thing be too stressful for them? i don't want it to sound like i want to put little goats out there for my dogs to terrorize, quite the contrary. i know my dogs would never hurt them...i just don't know if it would be too much for the goats. opinions? |
Follow-Up Postings:
Depends on the goats, depends on the dogs. Don't assume your dogs will not harm the goats, pack mentality can set in, and remember peoples FiFi's kill more livestock than any wolf ever did. Having said that, does the current owner run LGD's (livestock guardian dogs) with their herd? Are the goats acclimated to dogs? Every new lgd owner goes through the exposure/introductory period. Not every goat has had a guardian and the first is always stressful until they know the guardian will not harm them and they are there to protect them. So if all goes as planned it won't be an issue. Now, great danes are NOT livestock guardians. They will not know how to posture themselves to seem less of a threat, so the introduction period will take longer. If your danes do not harrass and chase the goats, ever, they should be fine after a week or so introductory period. Just like any other farm dog they should basically ignore the goats. If they harrass/chase/nip the goats, then yes the goats can be chased right to their death, and it has nothing to do with fainting. Where the fainting would come into play is if one faints, and a dane decides to gut the goat alive while they are down (pack mentality). It would be better if you got adult goats who will teach the danes (hopefully) that goats are not play toys, a good solid butt in the head *should* stop any irrational behavior on a single dog. Depends on the goats, depends on the dogs. Brendasue |
thanks for your reply, brendasue. i don't know if these goats are used to dogs and of course, that will be on my list of questions, right at the top. my dogs have been around other livestock (little horses, big horses, cattle) and while they are playful, they know "leave it!" and i never have to tell them more than once. their interactions with my horses were strictly play, never harassment. that is something that i simply would not allow. i do not intend for my dogs to interact with the goats unless i am right there. they are not allowed inside the fence, period, under any circumstances. if i do end up with young goats, intros will be done with dogs on leash for as long as it takes for the dogs to "get used" to the idea of new residents. :) |
Good thinking. Introduce them outside the pasture, let the dogs see those goats are "yours" and hopefully they will understand. Good luck |

This IS a cool plant indeed, no chlorophyll. I found them growing in the woods years ago. Unlike anything I ever saw before. Christopher |
Since these plants contain no chlorophyll, they have to get their energy somewhere else. They are true parasites....an organism which relies on a living host in order to live. Indian Pipes have a very interesting story, I think. They obtain their energy from fungi....but not just any fungi. Their host 'shrooms must have a mutualistic relationship (mychorrizal) with the roots of certain trees. It's remarkable.....in the long run, Indian Pipes get their energy from chlorophyll.....twice removed! They are closely related to azaleas, by the way. Cool, huh? |

Sleeps | 6 |
Bedrooms | 3 |
Bathrooms | 2 |
Property type | house |
Minimum Stay | 7 nights |
Our home is located on a private paved road and the lot size is 1.6 acres. The house in setback over 100 feet from the road and the rear yard has a cleared area for frisbee or wiffle ball or just catching the sun and relaxing.
The home has individual A/C units throughout and has nearly new stainless steel kitchen appliances. All the doors and windows have been changed to Andersen windows.
The house has a fantastic wraparound deck which is covered on one side and open for suntanning on the other side. The Weber gas grill is located on the deck so family cookouts await.
Bike paths are less than a mile away. Long Point Beach, one of the nicest most private beaches on the Vineyard is 2 miles away.
The home has 3 bedrooms and two full baths located on the first floor. The master bedroom has its own full bath with a clawfoot tub/shower combination and the 2 other bedroom share the other full bath which has a stall shower. There is also an outside shower with hot water.
The house can sleep up to 6 people or 2 people per bedroom.
There is a washer/dryer on the first floor. The 2nd floor consists of a kitchen, dining room and living room.The layout is very open with vaulted ceilings and lots of windows and sliding doors. The living room and dining room lead to the wraparound deck.
There is a gas burning oven on the 2nd floor which is great when the weather is chilly.
We have 3-4 adult bikes available.
My wife and I purchased our Marthas Vineyard dream home in 2005. We are both from NY although we have lived in Florida since 1994.
We have traveled to Marthas Vineyard since 1993 and have gone back almost every year since. It is heaven on earth as far as we are concerned.
I am a high end contractor in South Florida and as such, when we bought the house, we renovated most of it.
So come enjoy our little piece of paradise and weare sure you will have great times there just as we have.
Steven purchased this house in 2005
Marthas Vineyard is to me the most perfect place to vacation. you can be laid back in flip flops all summer or be as formal and fancy as you want.
We love where our house is located. It is a 2 minute drive to the airport and the airport 12-13 mile bike trial is 1/4 of a mile away.
We love the beach and running and the beach is a 2 mile run down a quiet road.
We love that we are a 10 minute drive away from Edgartown and all the action there but that it is very quiet and not so crowded by our house.
The huge property lends itself to barbecues, games of frisbee and wiffleball so all ages can enjoy the house.
The property also has wooded paths leading to another street behind us, so the kids will love exploring back there.
All in all we think Marthas Vineyard along with where our home is and its updated condition will be a great family vacation for all.
We chose the property because of the large area (1.6 acres) and because of the view to the backyard from the deck.
We also love the huge white clamshell driveway which leads up to the house.
The proximity to the bike paths wasreally important to us.
We also love the gas burning fireplace on those cold autumn nights.
Our House is located less than 1 mile from the main airport bike path which leads to all the main towns of Marthas Vineyard. We are 2 miles from Long Point Beach which is on the Atlantic Ocean. West Tisbury is about equidistant from Edgartown, Oak Bluffs and Vineyard Haven so access to each by car is about a 10-15 minute drive by car. There are great hiking and walking trails less than 1 mile from the home.

I recently painted my dining room Behr Mountain Haze and it seemed the perfect gray/green sage color I was looking for...until we got it on the wall. It looks mint to me. I picked out curtains that seemed to match the color exactly but they only intensify the mint color of Mountain Haze. I am beside myself because DH doesn't want to repaint and I'll have to do it myself. What is a nice pale sage that will go with my curtains and not be minty? I just hate it. The color chip looked perfect but the room does not get much light and the color changes with each part of the day. Sometimes it looks okay and sometimes it's just gross. It's just not the look I was going for! |
Follow-Up Postings:
You need a sage that has more yellow in it. Look at SW Grassland or Svelte Sage, for example. I also like Clary Sage, but that has a little more blue in it than the others I mentioned. It's still not minty, though. I empathize with your disappointment. We've all been there. It's worth the effort to get something you'll be happy with. |
Thank you - I will look into those colors! Mountain Haze looked so perfectly gray/green to me. :<( |
You might also look at Ben Moore Cheyenne Green, or if that's too dark, one of the lighter options on the same strip. It's a gray/green sage in my kitchen. |
I just used BM Nantucket Gray in my recently remodeled kitchen. It's very similar to Svelte Sage with just a touch more olive. It's very liveable, definitely a soft grayed green but never looks minty or pastel. There's not much wall space in this photo, but it has the best color rendering. |
oooh equest - that IS the green I am looking for! Very pretty. |
I have BM Flowering Herbs in my kitchen. A very pretty sage green. I have BM Baby Turtle in my adjacent Family Room it is one shade below it on the paint strip but definitely darker. |
2014: For anyone who reads this for, I'm sure the original poster has moved on from this issue, but it helped me! The original post complained that Behr's Mountain Haze is too gray and dull. I was going to use Mountain Haze but decided to do more research. Behr has a few other pale sagey colors: Cilantro Cream, and Pale Sagebrush. I did samples of each color on the bedroom walls. I decided that Mountain Haze was less sagey than I wanted. Cilantro Cream is in a coordinated palette with Ultra Pure White, so I decided to use this for walls and trim. Pale Sagebrush is pretty too, if you want just a little less yellow. Always remember - the color may look different on your walls, in your room, depending on lighting and flooring and other items and colors in the room. Ultimately I needed a slightly stronger color to carry the dark furniture in the room and Cilantro Cream fit the bill. |
I was the original poster. I have moved on, but just wanted to clarify for anyone considering Mountain Mist by Behr that it is not gray and dull, but more mint than sage. I've actually kept it and am glad I did. Changing out the curtains to a solid cream silk did wonders for my dining room. The room does not get much light, so this color brightens up my room! |
Oops! I meant Mountain Haze! |
I bet it looks great with cream drapes! I like the color. |

In another life I once had the dubious honor of having to testify before the state legislature representing my employer, a state agency. One of the agency's missions was promoting alternative energy sources, so it was not unusual to have a particular pro-nuclear state senator badger and bully me and my colleagues for not doing enough to promote the next nuclear plant our utilities wanted to build.
My instructions were to be respectful, just make our points and not argue with the senators on the committee, no matter how abusive they became. And some were abusive, insulting. I've always regretted that, because the legislators are supposed to work for the citizens who pay their salaries, although an administrative agency is, in part, a creation and extension of the legislature. But what if you're just a private citizen, an expert asked to testify at a hearing?
Here's how one private citizen reacted to the abusive Don Young (R. Alaska):
Friday's exchange came in a hearing of the House Natural Resources Committee, where Brinkley testified that the country should protect and preserve the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge from oil and gas exploration.
Young, who supports drilling in ANWR, sparked the fireworks when he called Brinkley's testimony "garbage" and then mistakenly called Brinkley "Dr. Rice."
"It's Dr. Brinkley. Rice University is a university," Brinkley said. "I know you went to Yuba (Community) College."
Visibly angry, Young shot back, "I'll call you anything I want to call you when you're in that chair. You just be quiet."
Brinkley retorted: "You don't own me. I pay your salary. I work for the private sector and you work for the taxpayer."
Committee Chairman Doc Hastings, R-Wash., stepped in to break up the argument, which was recorded by C-SPAN and since has drawn thousands of online viewers.
With Congress so unresponsive to the country's needs and public approval down around 9 percent, I'm surprised we don't see more of this.

An album by Coldplay
From its tongue-in-cheek cover art on down, Barenaked Ladies's Everything to Everyone is a surprisingly tough-minded survey of early 21st-century culture. Often accused of being too clever for their own good, Toronto's Ladies here … see full wiki
The melodies from this fine band are very ear friendly with sophisticated pop stylings. Next Time to my ears is the best tune on this collection with its fine instrumental arrangements, super harmony vocals, and strong song structure. Shopping is another cute tune making fun of materialistic people. Second Best is a good driving rocker and Testing 1,2,3 has some noteworthy harmonies and lyrics.
Some of the musical arrangements are less varied than on Stunt and even Maroon. Also some of the songs are a little similar to recordings on these aforementioned CD's. Nonetheless that is not such a bad thing as these two CD's were very good recordings. A little more growth would be nice. However, this is very good music with a nice touch of humor.
What did you think of this review?

We have a 1910 Dutch Colonial Revival home. It has a front porch that runs the length of the house. The porch floor is approx. 28" above finish grade. At this time the floor is concrete. The concrete is cracking and starting to look bad. I had the idea of instead of replacing it with concrete to take it back to a wood floor only better. I thought it would be wonderful to use the recycled composite wood material. The best of all worlds. I had a contractor tell me wood porch floors weren't common in this era of home. I find that hard to believe. Does anyone have any ideas or information on this subject?
Thank you so much for your help |
Follow-Up Postings:
I find that hard to believe, as well, especially with a 28" lift above finished grade. The town I grew up in in Central Pennsylvania had two Dutch Colonials from roughly that period, and both had wooden porches - one a rather small "entry way" style and the other one across the whole front of the house. |

Hey Porch Guy: Nice pics. What do you use for your oil finish? I'm refinishing a covered T&G Doug fir porch floor and I'm close to the stage of apply a finish. I want an matte oil finish for the floor. I was contemplating a Watco type finish Diane |

I use Cabot's Spar Varnish Satin Finish. There are other brands that are just as good. Check with your retailer. This is an oil base product that can be thinned with mineral spirits. Everyone has different thoughts about how to... I apply two coats. I thin the frist one with 50% varnish and 50% mineral spirits. I apply this coat liberally to saturate the wood. When throughly dry, I apply my second coat right out of the can - 100%. Through the years I have been successful with this method. I carefully roll on the first coat and brush the edges. The second coat can be done the same way if done carefully with care not to overlap too much or allow to puddle. All the best, The Porch Guy |

oldhometara, I'm curious who you are and want to thank you for the compliments. Please get in touch. The PorchGuy |
Here is a link that might be useful: My Album
PorchGuy, I have a 1910 house with a wrap around screened-in porch. It is in OK shape...a little sagging in spots, but 95% of it is fine. My question is, I have painted it a few times with a Benjamin Moore floor paint, but it does not wear well and is difficult to keep clean. Any suggestions? it does get wet in heavy rains. |

WARREN ŌĆö He may not be continuing as the lieutenant governor of Pennsylvania in January, but state Sen. Joe Scarnati (R-25) could find himself in his current Senate leadership post again.
ŌĆ£I am honored and humbled by the trust that my colleagues have shown in giving me the opportunity to continue to lead this great institution,ŌĆØ Scarnati said after his Republican colleagues once again nominated him to serve as President Pro Tempore in the state senate. ŌĆ£Without question, there is much work to be done, and by working together with members on both sides of the aisle, I am confident we will be successful in our intended endeavors.ŌĆØ
Scarnati said it was evident that voters across the Commonwealth found merit in the platform of lower taxes and less regulation that Senate Republicans have taken over the past several years. With that said, Republicans in the Senate were again successful in maintaining control of this body with a 30-20 margin.
ŌĆ£Certainly, the General Assembly must persist in moving forward in creating an environment where businesses are doing business and workers are working,ŌĆØ he said. ŌĆ£In addition, we must also walk down the path of making government more open, more transparent. While much has been accomplished in these areas, many challenges remain.
ŌĆ£Working with the basic premise of no tax increases, no new taxes and no excessive spending, Pennsylvania, quite frankly, can take the next steps toward making our state a better place to live, work and raise a family,ŌĆØ Scarnati said. ŌĆ£I look forward to working with members of the caucuses and administration to further this agenda.
ŌĆ£More specifically, I would like to congratulate Sam Smith as the next Speaker of the House. I have long considered Sam a friend and wish him nothing but the best.ŌĆØ
Scarnati will continue his role in the Senate for the 2011-12 session, although he will no longer carry duel positions with the election of Governor-elect Tom Corbett and Lt. Gov.-elect Jim Cawley.

"This is a recipe I found online. It was in response to a request in Q & A."
Serving Size: 1 (57 g)
Servings Per Recipe: 1
"Thanks for posting this, I knew what spices to use but not the proper amounts. I can not buy pumpkin pie spice mix in the Netherlands so its great that I am able to put it together myself. I used it making in cookies and its very good!"
"This is a great pumpkin pie spice, although I added a bit of allspice as well. Delicious!"
"This came in handy for recipe #395107-Impossible Pumpkin Pie Cupcakes! Thanks for posting!"
"Like B-J-Burrells modification I didnt have cloves and dont care for them much so I used about 1/2 tsp of ground allspice in its place. I used this in Recipe #373658 before I changed it to just include the spices since it is my recipe. I would make this again without the nutmeg because of its intoxicant nature."
"Worked great in a pumpkin cookie recipe. Thank you so very much. I didnt have cloves and dont care for them really so I used about 1/2 tsp of allspice in its place."
"I'll never buy Pumpkin Pie Spice again! I used this recipe as the basis, then reduced the cloves by half (personal preference) and added two pinches of ground allspice and a pinch of cardamom. Also, the cinnamon was a delicious Vietnamese cinnamon, which is more powerful than most store-bought brands. Don't be afraid to experiment a little to create your own. Thanks for posting!"
"This is awesome, it saved me a trip to the store today!! Thanks so much for posting!"
"Thank you for saving me a trip to the grocers! I was making the ultra yummy Pumpkin Pie Crunch (recipe #2498) and needed Pumpkin pie spice which is not in my spice cabinet. Thanks for taking the time to post this mix, Ciao! Divine aroma."
"So, soooo awesome to be able to find a quick fix recipe when you're in a bind. Thank you ciao and thank you 'Zaar!!"
"Zaar comes to the rescue again. Decided to make Pumpkin Cranberry Breakfast Cookie this morning only to find I did not have any pumpkin pie spice. Made a very small batch using the ratios and ingredients here and the results were terrific. I won't be buying those silly vials that cost too much any more. And I get to save a little pantry space to boot. Thanks. "
"Thank you so much for this!! I can't find a lot of the seasonings and spices I'm used to using in the UK. This brings me one step closer to my spice cupboard goal. :-)"
"With a recipe like this why would anyone use anything else? This is so easy to put together with things I already have in my spice cabinet. I used this in making Apple Oatmeal Pudding in the Crockpot recipe #125157. Thanks for taking the time to post."
"Thanks for a great recipe! You cannot get pumpkin pie spice here in England and this was a wonderful find for me. I made this yesterday so that I could make Nanita's Pumpkin Spice Cake and am now on the prowl for other recipes I can use it in. It smells heavenly. Thanks!"
"I love all of these spices. I added a tablespoon of allspice to it and use it for pumpkin pie and cookies. Nice blend."

Reno, Nevada– Nevada Senator Harry Reid issued the following statement today after the passing of former Senator Jim Jeffords:
"I am so sad to hear of the passing of Former Senator Jim Jeffords and my deepest sympathy goes to his family during this time. Throughout Jim's time in the Senate he left an important mark on the history of the institution. He faithfully served Vermont for over 30 years in Congress. He was a strong supporter of helping people with disabilities and always fought for the underdog. Jim was a model of a great legislator who avoided partisan politics and fought for what was best for the people of Vermont. In 2001 he changed the makeup of the Senate by switching from a Republican to an Independent and caucusing with the Democrats. History will remember Senator Jeffords as a courageous man who listened to his conscience, and I will always respect him for doing so."
