Hi, I started a 2 gallon batch of hard cider a week ago with cider that contains potassium sorbate. I have read if you get a starter going and then pitch it into the cider it will ferment. The starter bubbled like crazy and once I added it to the cider it has not moved the air lock once. Is there anyway of rectifying this batch? I have removed the airlock once and there is a foam layer on top and it smells good still. When you take a deep whiff it burns the noise so I think C02 is present. Also I have the two gallons of cider in a 6 gallon bucket, is there just to much air space to pressurize the bucket enough to get the airlock moving?
In a word, yes. Cider ferments slowly. It's likely that your airlock won't do anything, the CO2 just fizzes out slowly but steadily, and probably leaks out the lid of the bucket rather than taking the slightly more torturous path through the airlock. Give it a month. It'll probably ferment down fine, depending on the amount of sorbate that was in there.
Dave "This is grain, which any fool can eat, but for which the Lord intended a more divine means of consumption. Let us give praise to our Maker, and glory to His bounty, by learning about... BEER!" - Friar Tuck (Robin Hood - Prince of Thieves)
You're trying to make hard cider with potassium sorbate in it? I can drive my car with no tires but that doesn't mean I should, and it wouldn't be the best thing for my car either.
dmtaylor - Thanks for the advise. I will just let it sit for a month and see how it turns out. No sense dumping until I know it is no good. Teromous - At the time I didn't know it was a problem, this is my first homebrew. The other day I sourced a mill the presses preservative free, unpasteurized cider so I will be starting a second batch as well. It has certainly been a learning experience.
Get out of the habit of thinking the airlock is anything other than a vent to release excess co2 and you will be much happier. Your beer/cider/wine/mead will ferment whether or not the airlock bubbles. It a vent to release excess co2, NOT a fermentation gauge. airlock bubbling, lack of airlock bubbling, stopped airlock bubbling, fast airlock bubbling, slow airlcok bubbling, heavy metal airlcok bubbling, or disco airlock bubbling really is not an indicator of what is happening to your beer, really isn't important, and it is NOT an accurate gauge of fermentation. If your airlock was bubbling and stopped---It doesn't mean fermentation has stopped. If you airlock isn't bubbling, it doesn't mean your fermentation hasn't started.... If your airlock starts bubbling, it really doesn't matter. If your airlock NEVER bubbles, it doesn't mean anything is wrong or right. Your airlock is not a fermentation gauge, it is a VALVE to release excess co2. So get out of the habit of thinking that an airlock bubble it telling you anything. The only way to truly know what is going on in your fermenter is with your hydrometer. Like I said here in my blog, which I encourage you to read, Think evaluation before action you sure as HELL wouldn't want a doctor to start cutting on you unless he used the proper diagnostic instuments like x-rays first, right? You wouldn't want him to just take a look in your eyes briefly and say "I'm cutting into your chest first thing in the morning." You would want them to use the right diagnostic tools before the slice and dice, right? You'd cry malpractice, I would hope, if they didn't say they were sending you for an MRI and other things before going in.... Fermentation is not always "dynamic," just because you don't SEE anything happening, doesn't mean that any-thing's wrong,, and also doesn't mean that the yeast are still not working diligently away, doing what they've been doing for over 4,000 years..
Like my snazzy new avatar? Get Sons of Zymurgy swag, here, and brew with the best.Revvy's one of the cool reverends. He has a Harley and a t-shirt that says on the back "If you can read this, the bitch was Raptured. - Madman I gotta tell ya, just between us girls, that Revvy is HOT. Very tall, gorgeous grey hair and a terrific smile. He's very good looking in person, with a charismatic personality... he drives like a ****ing maniac! - YooperBrew
Thanks for the reply Revvy. Looks like I need to get myself a hydrometer, something I was planning on picking up for my next brew. I also have a bottling question if you have a moment. I was planning on carbonating the cider and bottling in 750ml wine bottle. Can I use a standard wine cork or do I have to use a champagne cork/wire hood? Thanks

For the past few weeks Ive been pondering making my own custom stalk for my Browning 280 x bolt bolt action rile. I know how syth stocks are made. Either by pour molds, building from a skeleton and putting the compound over it. If you know any other ways that are cost effective or easier I'm game. I'm basically starting from scratch. I have normal tools any of us would have plus access to a makeshift melting pot/forge.

I googled and found this: Plant Allium bulbs in the soil in the spring, as soon as the ground can be worked. Plant them to a depth of twice the diameter of the bulb. |
Here is a link that might be useful: how to grow ornamental alliums
- Posted by luvahydrangea Albany, NY Zone 5 (firstname.lastname@example.com) on Fri, Oct 29, 10 at 8:24
I grow many ornamental alliums and I always plant in the fall. I've never heard of planting them in the spring before. |
- Posted by finchelover 5b-6 (My Page) on Fri, Nov 5, 10 at 16:53
I never heard of planting ornamental allium bulbs in Spring also,in fact while in Illinois several weeks ago I saw some bulbs there and I just finished planting here in Kansas about 2 weeks ago to go with my others. |

In your own words, how would you describe your menu?
[It's an] American-casual menu with many seafood options and classic dishes; [there are] no crazy or hyped-up ingredients.
What is one of your most popular offerings? How is it prepared?
Our crab cakes are the most popular and, along with our crab soups, are the oldest recipe. We've been featured on a Maryland public-television special about the best crab cakes in the Baltimore/Maryland area.
What is one fun, unusual fact about your business?
The building was built in 1928 as a dancehall and picnic grove for [the] residents of Baltimore to enjoy. There was also a speakeasy in the basement during Prohibition. The dance floor is still [the] original. Also, we have one of the oldest liquor licenses in Baltimore County. [It was] issued when Prohibition ended.
Is there anything else you want to add that we didn't cover?
The property is on a point overlooking the Chesapeake Bay. The cove for kayaking is a protected calm-water cove with a sandy bottom. There are beautiful sunsets, Chesapeake Bay wildlife, ospreys, and bald eagles for sight seeing.
Terrapin Adventures never fails to live up to its name—even their swing set gets the stomach fluttering with excitement. To be fair, though, the swing in question is anything but the traditional apparatus you'd find at a city park. It seats three people and starts its trajectory 40 feet above the ground, generating 2Gs of force as it swishes riders back and forth over the landscape. The park's other attractions are equally exhilarating. On the high ropes course, visitors attached to sturdy safety harnesses cross 18 traverses situated between lofty platforms; some must be tackled via a rickety bridge, while others require leaps of faith. The 43-foot high climbing tower offers 10 routes up and down, including a head-first downward climb over the Rainbow Serpent. Otherwise, the 330-foot-long zipline sends visitors gliding through the treetops at speeds of up to 20 mph, fast enough to beat the USA track team's star squirrel.

With a name that means "where the paths cross," it's no surprise that Calleva is dedicated to bringing people of all ages and from all walks of life together to appreciate the outdoors. The certified MAEOE environmental center helps its guests dive into the heart of the wilderness right outside D.C. and raise awareness about its delicate ecosystems. In doing so, it encourages others to cooperate and take risks while stepping out of their comfort zones, like baby birds leaving the nest to start their own nest-building business.
To facilitate these efforts, a team of ACA-certified guides helms seasonal outdoor-adventure and educational programs. In warm weather, activities might include kayaking and canoeing down winding stretches of the Potomac River or paddling to a private island filled with ropes-challenge courses and other obstacles. Fishing and ecological-study programs present even more varied ways to explore the water. Other adventures include the year-round, such as backpacking; the cold weather, such as caving; and the whimsical, such as the annual haunted forest where ghosts and ghouls mingle under a zip-line course.
At Potomac Paddlesports, the first professional kayak school to be endorsed by the American Canoe Association, the team of American Canoe Association– and British Canoe Union–certified instructors patiently lead students through a methodical progression of flat-water paddling skills. The classes cover a variety of watersports, including whitewater rafting, river and sea kayaking, and standup paddling. The small-group classes are designed to keep students engaged, and longer trips down the Potomac challenge their skills with powerful rapids surrounded by lush scenery, interspersed with rare glimpses of bears putting on their bear suits. Outside of class, students can bond with fellow paddlers during weekly sushi meals and occasional movie nights. Further demonstrating their dedication to bodies of water, Potomac Paddlesports works to preserve the nation's rivers, estuaries, and oceans, sharing this passion with its members through advocacy and donations to conservation programs.
Sound Excursions describes their carefully curated group experiences as "field trips for adults." It's easy to see why: every outing takes groups to a new realm of Washington, whether it's the frothy shores of Puget Sound, inland forests and mountains, or tables at Seattle's thriving restaurants. The events held at these diverse locations range from culinary workshops on topics such as sushi-making and moonshine-tasting, to adventurous excursions with whitewater rafting or kayaking, to laid-back themed party cruises. For many outings, luxury transportation is provided.

In fact, quite the opposite is true.
From day one in my career, decision-makers from companies across the industry were happy to speak to me — all I had to do was ask.
7. The Thrill.
Mother Nature can be unpredictable, but in many ways "she" is an attractive aspect of working in the fresh produce industry.
Elements of excitement and uncertainty come with every new season — every year, each crop brings its own personality and bag of tricks, defining us as growers, distributors and service providers.
8. The Relationships.
Perishability demands trust, and trust is built on relationships.
While I have seen buyer-seller relationships change and evolve tremendously over the years, the fact remains that these relationships are an important and valued part of doing business in this industry.
9. The Timing.
In the past 50-plus years, fresh produce has never been more ripe for discussion. In the U.S., we are facing an obesity epidemic induced by a society dependent on processed foods.
This is a crucial time for our industry to actively and positively affect our country's eating habits together, in order to increase access and promote fresh produce.
10. The Pride.
This one is simple. Walk through a strawberry field or an apple orchard, and you will feel the pride that goes into bringing these beautiful products to life (literally).
We grow and provide the healthiest, most beautiful food to billions of people every day, and that is something to be proud of.

Buried from the public: Hart Island, New York
At first glance this modest island in New York appears unremarkable. The 131-acre dark speck of land has crumbling buildings, is off-limits to the public, and has not been occupied for the last forty years. Area residents might know of Long Island Sound's Hart Island, but few are familiar with its long-standing mission as the largest – and least visited – burial ground in the United States.
For one hundred and fifty years the island has also been home to a prisoner of war camp, an insane asylum, a quarantine facility, a tuberculosis sanatorium, a boy's reformatory, a disciplinary barracks, a Nike Ajax missile base, and a narcotics rehabilitation center. Read more…
Abandoned Nuclear Project: Marble Hill, Indiana
Thirty five miles northeast of Louisville, Kentucky on the Indiana side of the Ohio River, a 987-acre property with crumbling structures sits abandoned. The land is the former site of the Marble Hill Nuclear Power Station, an unfinished plant which would have been the only operational nuclear power-generating facility in Indiana.
But construction was halted – then completely abandoned – in 1984. Skyrocketing construction costs ultimately doomed the project. A change in social attitudes toward nuclear energy, increasing liabilities for the operator, and an internal scandal all helped contribute to the largest failed capital spending project in Indiana state history.
The Domes of Cape Romano, Florida
Five miles south of Marco Island near Naples, Florida, six igloo-shaped buildings appear to slowly march into the sea. The deteriorating domes of Cape Romano have been rumored to be the work of extra-terrestrials, a community home of a secret cult, or a clandestine research facility protected by guards with machine guns.
In truth it was a cutting edge home, designed and built by an enigmatic visionary with an eye for the eco-friendly and a goal of minimizing his carbon footprint.
Abandoned in the early 1990s, Cape Romano's Dome Home has endured several hurricanes and tropical storms – but it has been unable to win the war against erosion. Read more…
Relic From a Bygone Era: Pressmen's Home, Tennessee
Located in the hills of Eastern Tennessee, this abandoned complex was once home to the International Printing Pressmen and Assistants Union of North America. The bucolic setting was chosen for its remote location and proximity to a spring believed to offer health benefits.
The property was purchased in 1911, and for sixty-five years Pressmen's Home offered training, healthcare, and leisure services to union members and their families.
But by the late 1960s union leadership decided the remote location was too far removed from the political eye, and in 1967 the headquarters was moved to Washington D.C. Pressmen's Home spent the next two years winding down operations, and the buildings have been vacant ever since.

About Ralph Dale Earnhardt, Sr.
American race car driver Dale Earnhardt was best known for his career driving stock cars in NASCAR's top division. Earnhardt is notable for his success in the Winston Cup Series (now the Sprint Cup Series), winning seventy-six races (including one Daytona 500 victory in 1998). Earnhardt's seven championships are tied for most all-time with Richard Petty. His aggressive driving style led to controversy and earned him the nickname "The Intimidator." Earnhardt died in a last-lap crash during the 2001 Daytona 500. He has been inducted in numerous halls of fame, including the inaugural class of the NASCAR Hall of Fame.
He was born in Kannapolis, North Carolina, on April 29, 1951, to Martha Coleman and Ralph Earnhardt, who was then one of the best short-track drivers in North Carolina. Ralph won his one and only NASCAR Sportsman Championship in 1956 at Greenville Pickens Speedway in Greenville, South Carolina. Although Ralph did not want his son to follow in his footsteps, Earnhardt would not be persuaded to give up his dream of racing, dropping out of school to race. Ralph was a hard teacher for Earnhardt, and after Ralph died of a heart attack at his home in 1973, it took many years before Earnhardt felt as though he had finally "proven" himself to his father. Earnhardt had four siblings, Danny, Randy,Cathy, and Kaye.
Earnhardt began racing himself on the local tracks at the age of 15. He dropped out of school in the ninth grade to race full-time and work as a mechanic. In 1973, Ralph Earnhardt died of a heart attack at the racetrack while working on his car. Two years later, in May 1975, his son made his own stock car racing debut, finishing 22nd in the World 600 at Charlotte Motor Speedway.
In 1978, Earnhardt's racing caught the attention of Rod Osterlund, a racing sponsor based in California. After a tryout, Earnhardt was signed to his first full-time Winston Cup contract as Osterlund's only sponsored driver in 1979. That year, Earnhardt racked up his first win on the National Association for Stock Car Auto Racing (NASCAR) circuit at the Southeastern 500 in Bristol, Tennessee. By the end of the racing season, he had become the first driver to win over $200,000 in his rookie year; he was rewarded with NASCAR's prestigious Rookie of the Year honors.
The next year proved to be even bigger for Earnhardt, as he won his first NASCAR season points championship, or Winston Cup Championship, barely edging out the veteran driver Cale Yarborough. With the win, Earnhardt became the first driver ever to win Rookie of the Year and the season championship back-to-back.
After five solid years with Osterlund (although he didn't win another championship), Earnhardt joined Richard Childress' Chevrolet team in 1984. His career took off, beginning with five wins and a second Winston Cup Championship in 1986. The next year saw Earnhardt's best results yet, as he won 11 races and a third championship title, finishing in the top five in 21 out of 29 races.
Despite his undeniable success, Earnhardt earned a reputation early on for recklessness. Known as "the Intimidator," he was particularly prone to aggressively bumping other drivers out of the way in order to take the lead in a particularly close race. After a warning from the president of NASCAR in 1987, Earnhardt cleaned up his act and began developing better relationships with other drivers on the circuit. His success on the track continued, as he won his fourth Winston Cup Championship in 1990, earning a then-record $3,083,056 in winnings. In 1991, he took home yet another title. The streak was broken in 1992 after a series of mechanical failures, but Earnhardt bounced back the following year to win a sixth Winston Cup.
With a win at the AC Delco 500 in his home state of North Carolina in 1994, Earnhardt won his seventh Winston Cup Championship, tying the legendary Richard Petty for most career titles. For the third time in five years, he topped the $3 million mark in earnings, and was indisputably the king of stock car racing. The records kept on falling for Earnhardt throughout the 1990s, although he failed to win another Winston Cup. In 1996, he became the first driver to start in 500 consecutive Winston Cup races. The following year, Earnhardt broke $30 million in career earnings, the most ever for a racecar driver.
The only major victory that had eluded Earnhardt up until that point was the crown jewel of stock car racing, the Daytona 500, held in Daytona, Florida. He had finished second in the race four times, missing wins by devastatingly thin margins in 1990, 1991, and 1995. He survived a harrowing crash in 1997, only to return in fine form in February 1998, when he won his first Daytona in 20 career starts, breaking a dismal string of 59-straight losses overall. He finished eighth in points that season for his 18th top 10 finish in his 20-year career.
When Earnhardt was 17, he married his first wife, Latane Brown, in 1968. Brown gave birth to Earnhardt's first son, Kerry Dale, in 1969. They were subsequently divorced in 1970. In 1971, Earnhardt married his second wife, Brenda Gee (the daughter of NASCAR car builder Robert Gee), who gave birth to a daughter, Kelley King, in 1972, and a son, Ralph Dale Jr., in 1974. Not long after his second son was born Dale and Brenda divorced. Dale then married his last wife, Teresa Houston in 1982, who gave birth to their daughter Taylor Nicole in 1988.
Known by the nicknames "the Man in Black" and "Ironhead" as well as "the Intimidator," Earnhardt was beloved by fans as the self-promoted "bad boy" of NASCAR racing. He died on February 18, 2001, after crashing his stock car on the last turn of the last lap of the Daytona 500.

Shortly after publishing this blog, I came across a forum post that contradicts the information presented in this blog post. As such, I will review the actual source code in the Civilization V dll, do some more testing with the game, and revise the post as necessary. In the meantime, I'll leave the unaltered post here, for posterity. I apologize for the inconvenience.
A lot of buildings in Civilization V mention that they are affected by tiles or resources "near the city", but this quality of being "near a city" is poorly-defined within the game. So what exactly does it mean? I haven't seen any in-depth articles about this topic on the web or in the game's Civilopedia, so I thought I'd outline the important bits here.
Basically, a tile is "near" a city if that city was the first city in its respective empire to claim that tile within its workable radius.
So if you have a single tile or resource that lies between two cities, and both cities' workable ranges overlap that same tile, then that tile is not "near" both cities. It is only "near" the first city that owned that tile. This means that if you go into the city management screen and assign the second city to work that tile, it may receive yield bonuses associated with any improvements or buildings that affect it (such as the stable buffing pasture resources), but the tile's contents will not be considered "near" that second city for other purposes. This includes:
Say you have two cities (for example Rome and Antium) whose workable ranges overlap a pastured Horse. Rome was the first city to claim the Horse tile. Rome can, therefore, build a Circus (assuming Trapping has been researched). If you go to the management screen of Antium, you can assign it to work the Horse tile (which prevents Rome from being able to work that tile), but Antium still cannot build a Circus. That is, two cities cannot build a building that requires they both have the same tile.
Alternatively, if a resource is claimed by a city's culture, but is outside of a city's workable radius (four tiles or more away), then it never counts as "near" that city...

Over the weekend of May 24 (Memorial Day weekend), I participated in a special edition of the bi-weekly Civilization podcast called "PolyCast". It was the two hundredth episode, and in celebration, the hosts (DanQ, MadDjinn, Makahlua, and TheMeInTeam) invited as many of the guests hosts from the previous seasons as they could track down. First, however, listeners were treated to a special Q&A session with some of the Firaxis staff, in which Civ V was discusses, as well as the recently-announced Civilization: Beyond Earth!
The episode can be streamed in its entirety at thePolyCast.net.
Among the notable points of Civ V discussion was the Firaxians' response to the question of whether Civ V would receive any more patches. Although a straight "no" was not given (leaving the door open to the possibility of one more patch this summer), they made it seem like [to me] that support for Civ V has effectively ended. This was no surprise to me, but it was still a bit of a disappointment, considering that there are still a few annoying bugs (lingering auto-annex issues, broken promotions, and multiplayer bugs) as well as some in-game descriptions that are outright misleading (such as Shoshone's Great Expanse trait description). There is also still a great deal of concern on the forums about the balance of the initial policy trees (Tradition feeling much stronger than Liberty, Honor, or Piety). So it's a shame that these issues are not likely to be addressed.
The bulk of the conversation, however, was focused around the upcoming Civilization: Beyond Earth. I'm excited about this game, but also a bit skeptical, considering the poor quality of Civ V's initial release. However, I'm hopeful that Firaxis has learned their lessons, and will release a much more stable and compelling game this time around, so that we won't have to wait for six-to-twelve months of post-release support to get a decently-playable game.
The remainder of the show was brief discussions with many of the guest hosts who have participated in the show during the years. My segment was the first such chunk. I used the opportunity to thank the PolyCast hosts for discussing and publicizing my strategy posts, and talked a little about my future plans for Civ V and Beyond Earth strategies before they had to stop me to allow others to speak. I hope I didn't come off as too self-promoting or inconsiderate...
Anyway, I look forward to PolyCast continuing to provide great material, and the release of Beyond Earth should give them plenty to talk about in future podcasts. I hope I will be invited back soon, as I enjoy the discussions with my fellow Civ-heads.

In my review of the Brave New World expansion for Civilization V, I expressed some disappointment that some of the legacy civilizations didn't receive significant updates. I also complained about a few mechanical issues such as how the "warmonger" mechanic works and the value of trade routes. Well, Firaxis has released a major update to the game earlier this fall that addresses some of these complaints.
Several of the vanilla civilizations received a major overhaul. As I mentioned in my review, Germany and America seem to have been completely one-upped by the Zulu and Shoshone. Well, Germany has been given a major update, and America has received a small tweak in order to better differentiate them from the BNW successors. In addition, Japan has received a small (but significant) buff.
Germany was probably the civ that was in the most dire need of a facelift, since the Zulu leave them completely in the dust. Both civs had a huge military flavor, discounts for unit maintenance, and a unique Pikeman replacement, and the Zulu had Germany beat on all accounts. In order to differentiate the two, The Landsknechts unique unit was replaced with a new unique building, the "Hanse".

One of my biggest criticisms with the Gods & Kings expansion pack for Civilization V was that none of the features added really felt all that fresh. They were just redesigns of old features that were present in previous games. Granted, they were also the most highly-requested features by the player community, but as concepts, nothing really felt new or original.
The new expansion, Brave New World changes all of that by adding never-before-seen concepts to the game, and they add a great deal of flavor and dramatically change the way that the game unfolds.
A few more of the missing concepts from Civilization IV are re-introduced with a new coat of paint in Civilization V: Brave New World: trade routes and a world resolution system. Both systems are implemented differently than in the previous game, and both are kind of hit-or-miss this time around
I have long been asking for the introduction of some kind of international trade route mechanic to be added to Civ V. Without such a feature, the vanilla game (and Gods & Kings) were missing one of the key incentives to maintain peaceful relations with your neighbors. Well now we have such a feature. In some ways, it's a step forward from Civ IV's completely non-interactive trade routes, but it's also a bit clumsy.

Over the weekend of June 15, I participated in a bi-weekly Civilization podcast called "PolyCast". This episode was number 175, and it was titled "In Response to That", and focused on responding to several forum topics. The episode can be streamed in its entirety at here.
It was an interesting show, full of confusion and technical difficulties when it was broadcast live; although some of those difficulties were edited out in order to fit into the standard 1-hour format for the show archive. The show started out with difficulties getting the audio to work in the live steam, and it took us around 20 minutes to get up and running. That was a great start to the show. On top of that, I suffered several power outages at my house that disconnected me from the group chat and caused me to stumble through the show's closing sign-off. Oops. I'll do better next time.
This was my second time on PolyCast. The first time I appeared on the show, I predicted Civ V's first expansion. This show wasn't quite as prophetical (is that a word?), but I can't be Nostradamus every day!

Humble suggestions for improving Dark Souls II online09/22/2014 I recently posted my much-belated review of Dark Souls II. In it, I criticized the game for having lackluster online components, but didn't go into much detail other than to say that Soul Memory seems like a non-optimal matchmaking method and that invasions are rare and reserved for elite players.

Reports are suggesting that a PC version of Epic's Xbox 360 shooter Gears of War will finally be announced at E3 next week, following the appearance of an E3 montage gameplay trailer that's leaked onto the internet purportedly showing the game on PC.
Of course, Gears of War on PC has always been a matter of "when" rather than "if." Epic's boss Mark Rein has said previously that a PC version is "inevitable."
It's now expected that Microsoft will announce Gears of War under its Games for Windows live brand at its E3 press conference this Tuesday. Let's wait and see...

To benefit from loan consolidation it is absolutely crucial that you carefully compare the interest rates and fees associated with all debt consolidation loans available to you. Analyzing the details and fine print before choosing a loan ensures that you get a great deal for yourself and avoid spending more than you need to. Check to see if a prospective consolidation firm provides customized payment plans. Some companies use a method that is the same for every customer, but everyone has different needs so be sure they offer you options. Look for a service that offers you an individualized payment plan instead. While it may seem more expensive initially, you can save money down the line.
When struggling with making several payments, you may want to see if you can qualify for a personal loan. These signature based loans are based on your credit profile. One benefit to these type of loans is that they lower your payments by extending the length of the loan. If you own a home or land and have built up equity, you may qualify to take out a line of credit or home equity loan. These loans allow you to borrow against the equity of your home giving you instant access to cash to pay off your outstanding debts.
What do you plan to do with the extra money you have each month once your payments are reduced? The best bet is to put it into a savings account. You never know when you might break a leg and need the money to pay off your medical bills, instead of going into more debt. Debt consolidation isnt necessarily your best bet if you are middle aged. Remember that the smaller payments will be carried on well into the future, so when you are 50 and you take on a 20-year line of credit, you may be forced to retire while still paying off your debts. Even though your student loans may not be eligible for typical debt consolidation programs, you may find that the loans themselves can be consolidated into one student loan payment. This can be as helpful as debt consolidation of any other kind. Simply call up the company that owns your loan and ask about consolidating all your student loans together. Try using a debt consolidation service to pay down your debt. When you look for one, make sure they arent charging high fees. You can check with a local consumer protection agency like your local BBB. You may have to make sacrifices via using extra lines of credit and harming your credit rating, but they can help get your debt paid off.
I have been working with this service Comeon Casino.
They generally require a single monthly payment..
Thanks to lender competition, rates can often be great when you seek out a secured debt consolidation loan. If you can lock it into a certain time frame, such as five years, the rate may be reduced further. If you sign up for automatic payments, they may give you another discount! If you are unable to manage various debts and meet your payment obligations each month, you may want to consider debt consolidation. This is a popular way to reduce multiple bills and payments into an affordable single monthly payment. Sometimes you will even have your overall debt reduced with debt consolidation. If your money is owed to multiple creditors, figure out your average interest rate. This number can then be compared with the one that the debt consolidation agency is trying to give you so you can see if its the best option. You may not need debt consolidation if you have a fairly low interest rate.
A simple way to take care of debts is to borrow money. If you get in touch with a lending institution near you, you can ask what type of interest rates you would have to pay. Perhaps you could use your car as loan collateral and repay more urgent debts with the loan funds. Never repay a loan late.
Consider the benefits of debt consolidation, even if youre debt isnt that heavy. For example, a debt consolidation loan with very favorable terms can save you a lot of money in interest every month. A single payment is also much easier to manage than many. Weigh the pros and cons, and see if debt consolidation can put you in better financial shape.
Find out whether debt consolidation will require you to take out another loan. If so, make sure that your rates are not too high. Some companies lure people in with the promise of a fixed financial world, but end up giving them a new loan that they have trouble paying.

Hey all, my spring break starts this coming week, and I'm going to take a roadtrip up to Montana. The original plan was to leave from El Paso Saturday morning, on to Denver, spend the night at a cousin's place, then make the rest of the drive to Glacier National Park. However, another friend of mine in Salt Lake City wants to go, so the route changed from El Paso > SLC > Montana/Glacier. Either way, it's about a 23/24 hour drive.
I was just wondering if any Montanan's or people that have visited can recommend places to visit, eat, sleep and magnificent sights. Also, any tips on what to expect on the roads, weather, clothing I should take for the area/climate. Keep in mind, I'm a man born and raised in the desert, so I will be in for a bit of a change (we have mountains, forests and a cold climate a few hours from me, but I still want to be fully prepared.) I just want to experience Big Sky Country - I've always been fascinated with Montana.
I want to take my Tacoma, but it's a PreRunner, and I think that might pose a problem higher up north. If the roads/terrain require 4wd, I can just take my diesel, but if it's doable in the Taco, I'd rather that.
Thanks in advance for any help

haha, I don't have an SO, but my family knows I'm on here! I try not to talk to them about the Nameberry world too much, they already think I'm sort of a freak. But we'll talk about what combos I like and I'll ask my siblings what their favorites are, and sometimes I share that with the Berries. When it comes to having a baby (and naming one), I probably wouldn't say, "Oh, well, the Berries approve!", but if my husband was really pushing to use Arabella Serena, and our surname was Smithson, and the Berries brought up the initials, I would definitely say, "Babe, you definitely know what Arabella Serena Smithson spells, right?!"

I don't have a significant other (not even dating anyone casually) but my friends and family that I interact with regularly know I'm totally obsessed with names. If I'm enthusiastic about something I talk about it a lot (oops! *blush*) so it's pretty hard for them not to know! Even when I meet new people with interesting names I usually can't resist commenting on it. I've thought sometimes that good thing people who know me know I'm definitely not the type you'd expect to be a teen mom (and have never had a boyfriend), otherwise they'd probably think I was pregnant! haha
I've definitely told people about Nameberry too, and have given them links to threads I think they'd find interesting. Actually, there are probably people who would know who I am based on my signature. I don't bother hiding my namenerdiness- it's not bad or wrong or embarrassing, and the more I get to talk about names IRL, the better imo...

My boyfriend is totally aware, and he's ok with it for the most part, but he does tease me about it. HE thinks I'm planning for our future and it's "nesting," (in his words) but I just really just like names… and I admit, some of them I'd really like to use with our babies someday!
I throw names past him and he shoots them down most of the time and suggests his own names that he knows I'd never go for. He thinks we only like old people names. Every once in awhile, I'll be pleasantly surprised by his reaction to a name, but most of the time he thinks names I like, like Matilda and Genevieve, are either too "French," too "British," or "too old."- current loves -

My mother and I are both trying to loose weight via exercise and watching our calories and stuff. We love the Disney sit-down restaurants but are in a quandary with sit-down restaurants and our diet. The food is way over-portioned and we should never eat that much on our diet. However, we don't want to be slapped with a plate-sharing fee or feel like we're being cheap because we're splitting a meal.
That leaves us with two options. Eat everything we order, which is pretty bad when you go to Yachtsman Steakhouse and get a 16 oz steak when a serving size is only 3 oz. :wow:, or we can ask for a box and take the rest back to our hotel room and put it in their fridge.
I'm not much of a picky eater but I must admit the thought of eating something like cold spaghetti from Tutto Italia wouldn't be my favorite choice. It'd be much better heated up. I know the counter service locations at some hotels (French Quarter comes to mind) have microwaves where we could warm up leftover food. However, to my knowledge, not all hotels have this ability.
Would Disney get upset if we brought a small microwave with us when we stayed in their hotels? My mother is somehow convinced that it would create a problem and we'd get reported or fined or something for bringing a microwave with us. I don't see where it would be an issue.
Any thoughts on the microwave issue would be helpful.

Corey Simmons and Ramone Dickerson are headed to primetime! We're delighted to announce that 2 Fat 2 Fly has received an eight-episode order from OWN: Oprah Winfrey Network and will make its debut in early 2015 on the network's Saturday night reality lineup. The pickup comes less than a month after a sneak peak of the show scored a cable win among African American women 25-54.
We're delighted to announce that Yukon Gold has begun production on its third season in Canada's far north. Produced by Paperny Entertainment, this original series follows four daring gold mining crews as they toil the land and battle the elements all in hopes of hitting the ultimate payday. Season three of Yukon Gold premieres across Canada on HISTORY winter 2015.
Yukon Gold, HISTORY's number one Canadian documentary series of 2013, begins production on season two this month. Produced by Paperny Entertainment, this original series tracks four mining crews on a modern day gold rush as they scour "The Land of the Midnight Sun" hoping to strike it rich.
Paperny Entertainment has been recognized by realscreen magazine as one of the top 100 independent non-fiction production companies in the world.
Reality TV is full of gold diggers, but for once they're actually going to be shown in a positive light thanks to Paperny Entertainment's newest series, Yukon Gold. Premiering in early 2013 on History Television, Yukon Gold follows four mining crews as they try to strike it rich during northern Canada's extremely short mining season. We recently sat down with series creator David Paperny to chat about the challenges of filming in the Yukon and the appeal of getting back to his roots as a documentary filmmaker.

Konami pulled the lid off their first Castlevania title on the Nintendo 3DS today by releasing this new trailer which highlights the story, cinematics, and (towards the end) the gameplay of this highly anticipated 3DS title. From the looks of things so far, we're pretty excited to see how Mercury Steam is able to bring the Lords of Shadow experience down to 2D.
No release date for this title is currently known, but it's somewhat encouraging that this trailer shows as many elements as it does. Not just story, cinematics, or gameplay, but all three, so it may be fairly far along in development. We're really looking forward to seeing more of what Konami and Mercury Steam will be offering up with Mirror of Faith.

getting php "ghost" errors - anyone else seen this?
I'm experiencing a problem in which "ghost" errors (for lack of a better term) are being displayed on my development server.
Here is what I mean by "ghost" error:
We have four developers, each with his own revision-controlled working directory. Occasionally, when one developer produces an error in his code in his working directory, the error will start randomly popping up in other developers' working web sites, even though the other developers' working web sites are not touching the code that the error is claiming to be triggered from.
The error will indicate that it's being caused by an unrelated page to the one being loaded, too. Our production server has done this as well, but it is extremely rare when it does happen on the production server. We suspect php or apache settings or code are to blame. A page refresh or two always gets rid of the "error", but we're hoping to avoid it altogether, as it has become very annoying.
Three relevant factors:
We're using php session handling.
Our development server is debian etch with php 5.2.0
We're using a custom error handler implemented by set_error_handler(). Our ghost errors are usually displayed through this. But the error handler does not store error messages for redisplay. Additionally, the error handler triggers an email send and a database insert or update, and when ghost messages display, neither of these occur.
Is it possible that something is corrupting apache or php caching or session handling? Anyone else seen anything like this?

Thats in interesting situation, and since I have never worked with another development team on php work before, I cannot say I've ever replicated something like this. Closest I've come to is dirty reads from an oracle database.
Although a corruption of some sorts is always a possibility, consider the number of 'errors' that exist (not the generated ones, but the interpreted ones). If this is the only 'error' that php is causing, I'd bet its more on a configuration issue. With an inclusion of a shared directory, try checking the path in your configurations, perhaps its looking at a different data than you anticipate. With a custom error trigger as well, it could be something that is being used within there.
Sorry I cannot be of more help, but hopefully you will get it solved!
Been gone for a few months, and haven't programmed in that long of a time. Meh, I'll wing it ;)PHP Code:

Several long-standing Kentucky Derby handicapping angles likely will be tested in the 133rd Run for the Roses, a year after the late Barbaro became the first Thoroughbred in 50 years to capture the 3-year-old class' most prestigious competition after a layoff of five weeks or more.
Perhaps topping the list is that no Breeders' Cup Juvenile champion ever has gone on to win the Kentucky Derby since the Sport of Kings -- Queen Elizabeth II will attend this year, by the way -- began sponsoring the multi-race card in 1984.
That's a bottom-line fact current second choice Street Sense stands a solid chance of changing.
The reigning Breeders' Cup Juvenile champion and winner of March's Tampa Bay Derby in his 2007 debut, Street Sense is eyeing becoming the first Thoroughbred to be blanketed in roses with just two Derby preps since Sonny's Halo in 1985.
Favored Curlin will attempt to defy odds by becoming the first colt who didn't race as a 2-year-old to nab the Derby since Apollo in 1882.
Horse handicapping angles and tips at this time of year are as plentiful as prostitutes on the Las Vegas Strip.
Here are a few that even fairly novice horseplayers can digest, though a full field of 20 can mean there's also a lot of baloney to consume!
-- FAVORITES: Chalk triumphs about a third of the time, give or take a few races -- even less on the first Saturday in May, when Churchill Downs traffic can get very congested and the best horse doesn't always get the best ride.
The world went 21 years between the time Triple Crown champion and Derby favorite Spectacular Bid won in 1979 and 2/1 choice Fusaichi Pegasus ruled in 2000.
Just take a gander at some of the double or even triple-digit payouts produced in recent years by long shot champs such as Giacomo and War Emblem.
Consider exotic payoffs involving them and we're talking Tahitian trips here.
Even when favorites get to the winner's circle, payouts can be satisfying.
Witness 4/1 Smarty Jones in 2004.
-- JOCKEY: If you don't recognize the rider, forget the horse.
Smarty jockey Stewart Elliott was an exception, not the rule.
Check out if the same jockey rode the colt in its last race; if there's no obvious or known reason for a change, dig deeper.
-- TRAINER: See first line under previous heading.
The most significant difference between riders and conditioners may be in the size of egos, where the little guys are at a disadvantage.
There's a reason why you repeatedly see the names Bob Baffert, Charlie Whittingham and D. Wayne Lukas associated with Derby winners.
Todd Pletcher may be the name on folks' lips today, but the Eclipse Award honoree still is seeking his first Derby crown after 14 previous tries.
He has a boatload of hopefuls going this year, though, as much as 25 percent of the field.
-- DISTANCE: The Derby distance is a classic mile-and-a-quarter; a colt/filly needs to have run 1 1/8ths mile at least once prior to reaching the starting gate.
-- DOSEAGE: Distance invokes the subject of dosage, a complex mathematical calculation that pertains to how far a horse is bred to run.
Think golf here, in that the lower the dosage, the better.
A dosage of 4.00 is regarded as high end or a little above par.
-- SPEED AND BEYERS: Speed is not a primary consideration, as Derby horses run further than they ever have before.
It still factors in, though, and this is where Beyers figure.
If you don't know what Beyers are, just bet birthday numbers and hope for the best. A horse, to make things simple and brief, should have collected at least one century (100) Beyer before its Derby start; a 105 or better rates an A-plus.
-- HITTING THE BULLSEYE: Fifteen Derby winners since 1980 have had a bullet workout at Churchill Downs, including Barbaro.
-- GAINING GROUND: Stalkers historically have dominated the Derby, with only nine entrants since 1925 going wire-to-wire, including the filly -- one of just three female victors in Derby annals -- Winning Colors in 1988 and War Emblem in 2002.
-- POSITIONING POSTS: Horses in the first through 12th slots have won 93 of the 132 previous Kentucky Derbies, but six since 1995 have won from farther out.
-- WHO'S THE BABY'S DADDY?: Brief racer Raise A Native never won a Derby himself, but has proven to be quite prolific down in the meadow where the blue grass grows.
The horse's sire line has produced a dozen champions, so at least glance at a Derby candidate's male bloodline.
Raise A Native's dam side of the family has spawned two winners: Barbaro and Real Quiet.

Association for Community Living raises nearly $70,000 through Valley GivesJan. 9, 2013 |
SPRINGFIELD – The Association For Community Living knows teamwork. Just look at the collaborative work it has done over the past 60 years to improve the lives of people with developmental disabilities and their families. And then look at the success the agency and its programs had on the inaugural Valley Gives Day on Dec. 12, 2012 raising just shy of $70,000. One program of The Association, Whole Children in Hadley, which provides recreation and enrichment programs to children and teens, raised so much money – $44,582, from 661 donations – that it was awarded an additional $25,000 in grants offered by Valley Gives sponsors. Whole Children took first place with the most number of unique donors among all 270 participating nonprofits on Valley Gives Day, and it also took second place for most money raised among small nonprofits. "The Association For Community Living has been here for 60 years. The people that we help have powerful stories to tell, and Valley Gives tapped into our ability to tell them," Barbara Pilarcik, the agency's executive director, said. "The good news about The Association has travelled up and down the Valley as a result." The Association could have registered for Valley Gives online as one agency, and the parent organization could then have dispersed funds received to its programs. But Pilarcik said that, in gearing up for Valley Gives, the agency intentionally decided to work together by creating a competition of sorts among agency programs for funds. She said she hoped agency supporters and various program supporters would rise to the challenge of seeing the agency play as a team, and she is thrilled with the actual results. The agency itself raised roughly $6,000; Community Resources For People with Autism in Easthampton and Pittsfield raised $4,068; the Down Syndrome Resource Group of Pittsfield raised $302; and three other agency programs that had never attempted fundraising before each receiving at least one online gift. "Each of the divisions worked hard to raise money," Pilarcik said. "It clearly says that they are able to mobilize and get their communities fired up. When you have people who are passionate about a cause that they believe in, they can really motivate and empower people." Valle Dwight, communications manager for Whole Children, said she was astounded by the dollar amount her program raised. She said the success was in the grass-roots approach that had parents, staff, board members and other program supporters coming together to make phone calls, send emails, create and post videos of success stories and emphasize the program's message of good work. Pilarcik said she was particularly impressed that one donor to Whole Children, who made a five-figure gift, doubled the amount when it became apparent that the program was in the running for a $15,000 challenge award. "It generated so much excitement," Pilarcik said of Valley Gives participation. "It made our employees feel proud. It gave them a sense of pride that we are an organization that was seen by the community as worthy of giving its money to." Pilarcik is grateful to the sponsors of Valley Gives for having the forethought to create the innovative event, and she looks forward to participating next year. "It engenders a sense of community," she said. The Association For Community Living has been creating opportunities, building relationships and improving lives of children and adults with developmental disabilities since 1952. Founded by the dedicated commitment of five young mothers of children with developmental disabilities who held a strong belief that their children had the same right as all other children – the right to live and grow with dignity in their own communities – The Association continues their vision today. This year the organization will reach a milestone of 60 years of excellence and service. The Association's beginnings were modest and deeply rooted in Hampden County. Today, its reach extends to all of Western Massachusetts and parts of Central Massachusetts, supporting 2,387 individuals with autism, Down syndrome, fragile X, and other developmental disabilities and 1,911 families in 102 cities and towns with offices in Springfield, Easthampton, Greenfield, Hadley, and Pittsfield. The Association provides services that are many and varied, forming a continuum of support from infancy to old age with comprehensive services in five major areas – supported living, family services, employment services, social entrepreneurship, and recreation and enrichment – and are recognized as a well-managed, fiscally responsible nonprofit agency with a budget of $21.8 million. |

1900 PF vs. Ohana for Breakfast-- Read First
We will be at WDW the week of Thanksgiving, and the morning in question is smack in the middle of the trip. The night before we will be out late seeing Fantasmic/Osborne lights and having a late dinner. Players are me and DH, and our DD (5), who is disabled. Due to her disabilities, we cannot do a full day (8am-8pm) straight through because of endurance and limitations on battery power for her ventilator.
Which leads to my question. Original plan was Ohana breakfast (done before) at 7:45 am, followed by the MK, leaving after lunch at BOG to rest at the hotel for the afternoon. Dinner at Narcoosee's at 5:45, and probably pop back into the park for a ride or two after. A 1900 PF ressie just opened up (and I snagged) for 10:15 that morning. Never eaten there before, but dd loves Pooh and Mary Poppins, and I've heard good things. We could sleep in a little, and then just power through the day, but would have to leave the park after dinner. Also, would probably not have an appetite for lunch at BOG, lol. Which one sounds like a nicer plan? |
Plus I love ohana. Great food, beautiful atmosphere, cute characters! Stitch is hilarious! |
I'd do 1900 PF since you haven't done it before and because your little one likes the characters.
That said, if BOG is REALLY important to you, then I'd keep the original plan. |
You asked two different questions. I too like Ohana better for breakfast because the food is served family style, the juice is great, and Mickey is there. But, if you have never been to Park Fare and your dd likes those characters, then that is a great choice as well.
Finally, I like your original plan better of Ohana, BOG, and Narcoossee's because I like spacing out my meals and to use them as a rating period. However, we try to avoid early AM breakfasts anymore so that we can sleep in later. |

Annie's Mailbox for May 14, 2011: Wife convinced kids are scheming against her
Saturday, May 14, 2011
Dear Annie: Two years ago, my wife and our 25-year-old daughter had a falling out right after our son's wedding. They talk during family get-togethers, but otherwise haven't spoken in the past six months. Meanwhile, my newly married son moved to his wife's hometown five hours away.
My wife is now convinced that our daughter-in-law is scheming to create a family rift and is manipulating the fights with our daughter. I don't agree, but my wife says I must take her side and have nothing to do with our kids until they apologize to her. This has caused tremendous friction in our marriage. I want my kids in my life.
We have tried couples counseling with little success. Short of walking away after 32 years, I don't know what to do. Is it wrong for me to give up?
— Caught in the Middle
Dear Caught: Your wife could be right about the daughter-in-law, but even so, it serves no purpose to demand an apology from someone who isn't likely to give one. Your wife also sounds like a difficult person. Has she always been like this? Some women have extreme mood swings during menopause. Please ask your wife to see her gynecologist about this possibility. We also recommend informing her that you will absolutely not take sides. If she doesn't wish to speak to her children, that's her choice, not yours. And it might help to point out that a future reconciliation is more likely if one of you remains in touch.
Dear Annie: My husband and I regularly send checks or gift cards to our grandchildren on their birthdays and at Christmas. The older the children become the less often we receive any acknowledgment.
With communication today being so quick and easy, I find it extremely disappointing that a simple e-mail cannot be sent with the words, "Thank you for the gift." It doesn't require a card, a stamp or a walk to the mailbox. Should I say anything to my children and grandchildren?
— Disappointed Grandmother
Dear Grandmother: Of course. Children need to be taught the importance of acknowledging a gift. If their parents have not done so, it is perfectly OK for you to call, text or e-mail your grandchild and say, "Did you receive the gift I sent for your birthday? Did you like it? Please let me know." Once they get a bit older, if they continue to ignore this obligation, feel free to tell them you will stop sending gifts since they apparently don't appreciate receiving them.
Dear Annie: I am a retired probation officer and would like to offer some suggestions to "Marriage on the Rocks," whose 51-year-old stepson lives rent-free in their trailer and may be using drugs.
Call the police and have their drug team search your property, house and trailer for drugs or paraphernalia. If the stepson has any illegal substances, he goes to jail. Police don't need a warrant if you invite them to search your property.
Sell or put the trailer in storage.
Set conditions for the stepson to live at home, and enforce them. If he doesn't abide by the terms, enroll him at a local homeless shelter.
