This was wonderful! Both my husband and I really enjoyed the combination of tomatoes, onions, feta and olives. Of course, the balsamic vinegar really gives a kick.
I made this for a spring lunch party and served it with a selection of salads and a piece of barbecued sirloin of beef. It was very popular and is a great addition to a salad buffet.
A big hit. We kept making it till the container of Feta ran out. Loved the olives.
Excellent side dish! I've made it three times already and everyone loved it. It makes a lovely presentation on a nice platter.

Yeah, I guess its ridiculous for a multibillion dollar entity managing an internationally recognized product to look for the best...?
Berri Bunny
I'm surprised everybody ignored Morello when he mentioned that not every position is an entry-level one. Unless you're some kind of 21-year old f***ing marketing wunderkind, your experience does matter. As he mentioned, design doesn't often require that kind of experience. It's not that you can ONLY learn some things from experience because some people learn quicker than other people, but requiring 10+ years certainly filters the pool pretty well for what they're looking for. Otherwise, they probably wouldn't ask for it.
I think most people forget the Interview portion that is broken down into several pieces.

Are You a Family if You Don't Have Kids?
By YourTango
My friend Lydia, who had spent the last 14 months trying to conceive, was surprised when she discussed the issue with her husband. He confessed that marrying and moving in together were a run-up to the final step—having children—that in turn would make them a real family. Lydia, on the other hand, felt they were already a family, and had been from the day they fell in love. For her, the power of this connection superseded traditional definitions. "I didn't realize that to him, family had scale," she told me.
Other couples mentioned how important it was to care for someone together. "The fact that I helped raise his children has created a deep bond," my friend Patricia said. "And it may sound silly, but caring for our dog and working in our garden together is another source of joy and connection for us." My friends Dave and Suzanne are both Buddhists. Their sense of family comes from sharing a spiritual path. "It's tribal," Dave says. "We're part of the same clan, share the same views about life and death, help each other struggle with all the big issues." The rhythms of their life reflect their core beliefs. What could be more familial?
Pets and spiritual practices aside, some couples just know they are a family, and have no wish or need for an explanation. My friend Beth says, "I have no idea what makes us a family. But when Rob and I are lying in bed together watching TV and our cat jumps up and falls asleep between us—I melt and think, 'Ah, I'm home.'" Richard Borofsky, EdD, a longtime couples' therapist and founder (with his wife, Antra) of The Center for the Study of Relationship in Cambridge, Mass., agrees that shared interests and deep emotional bonds are helpful. But he also points to the importance of community. "For many childless couples, gay or straight," he says, "their friends are their family." But, he adds, "family is simply created over time, organically. When you've moved through enough ups and downs together, celebrated gains and mourned losses, a couple becomes a family."

I love the convenience. It's much better than doing long term parking at the airport.
Used to park at Interconti but switch to this one because booked a room at Hyatt Regency (because cheap) nearby so we don't have to walk with luggage for too long. It turned out even better, since there is sky bridge with heating connecting this Hilton and Hyatt and the parking garage. We never walked outside . Upon arrival Hilton shuttle hasn't arrive but Hyatt's was already there. So we simply used Hyatt shuttle.
Great service!
Parking at the Hilton was great. I felt my car was secure and did not worry. The shuttle runs every 20 minutes and we were lucky and caught the shuttle within just a few minutes in both directions.
Follow the directions on the website. Google maps marks the hotel a bit further down the road.
The only problem I had was getting a hold of someone when we landed. The phone number the driver gave me was the rite number but it took 4 calls to get someone to answer. This was at 11:30 at ORD.
Hilton shuttle service took over an hour to pick us up. Will not use again.
Everything about the long-term parking at Hilton was good, execept for a frustrating experience with a male desk clerk on duty on 08/13 at 11:30PM. After a long flight I was tired and had a little difficulty finding the exit from the parking lot and ened up in the Embassy Suite's exit and when I solicited his help, he was condending and rude and devoid of empathy and the concept of customer service. Ironicaly, moments earlier, when speaking to a lady desk clerk, she was more than helpful and did a fanatstic job of being an ambassador for Hilton.
Most difficult part is not your fault: Signage for the shuttle center at ORD is poor and difficult to follow where the actual doors are. You could provide more specific instructions to help.
Shuttle driver was very nice and helpful.
Overall, pretty good experience. Thanks.
We didn't have any problems at all. We found the hotel without any trouble. The shuttles were great--there was a short wait until it arrived, and it took 10-15 min. to get from the hotel to the airport. We were dropped off at the entrance to our airline. Having read the comments by others, we made sure we had printed the reservation and had all the information necessary upon our return (including our license plate number), so we simply got there, paid and were on our way.
The door for my shuttle was supposed to be #2 but was listed on my reservation as 3. After waiting for a while I walked down just to check and saw my shuttle
The Hilton parking requires a lot of walking. There are no automatic doors on the walk from parking lot to lobby. The parking lot is a bit confusing as several hotels use the same entrance. In general, first time use is a little tricky. Users would be wise (if not travelling alone) to drop off luggage at lobby before parking so as to not have to carry it all the way from the parking garage.
My flight was delayed, so the Rosemont Hilton stopped running the shuttle. Before departing, I asked if this would be a problem, and I was told no, they would come, "no problem." So when I called for a ride, I was told to relocate my pick up area in O'Hare twice. The called 2 taxi's that never arrived, and then told me to go back to the original pickup spot to get their shuttle which never came. I ended up talking Hilton's Garden Shuttle (a different hotel). I was supposed to arrive around midnight and instead did not get home until 4:30 am. There was no offer of discount to what I paid, just half hearted apologies. I was returning from my father's memorial service... So the bungling of my pickup made a horrible situation that much worse.
We waited at the airport shuttle pickup over 30minutes for a shuttle. Every other hotel shuttle bus showed up at least twice when finally ours for the Hilton did. That was a little discouraging. Otherwise, everything else was good.
Was a great experience. We will definitely use this service again! Thank you!

I made a batch of Linda Lou's Heinz pickles, and a batch of Zydeco beans last night...both recipes (I believe) call for equal parts of Vinegar and Water. I'm still nervous about BWB canning the low-acid veggies, so I changed the ratio to make it more of a 3:1 Vinegar:Water ratio (more acid, less water).
I figure that if the total amount of liquid stays the same, you can always substitute more acid for water, right? That would still be safe, maybe even safer?? Just hoping that I was right about this :) |
Follow-Up Postings:
Also, I noticed air bubbles in the jars after processing. I thought I had gotten them out before putting the lids on, but as I removed them from the water, there were air bubbles traveling up the sides. Enough that I noticed them. Now, after resting overnight, I don't see any air pockets, or too many bubbles anymore ... and all but 1 jar pinged shut and the seal seems fine. Do I need to worry about air bubbles like that, or is that a normal occurence when you remove jars from the boiling water? (I don't think it was a density issue - I did pickles and zydeco beans, and after processing they are all sitting up near the tops of the jars and there is liquid space underneath the veggies, they're not crammed full). |
You're fine (and safer). We like things "vinegary" so I always find myself reducing the water in pickle recipes and increasing the vinegar. A lot of times, there is a little air trapped inside the cucumbers or beans, and it will bubble out as the vacuum is being created. Or things are still boiling a little until they start to cool off. No worries. |
Ah, thank you so much for letting me know! I thought extra vinegar instead of water would be fine, but then I figured I should ask just in case :) The air bubbles are also good to know about, I haven't seen them before like that but they appear to be fine now and I'm glad to know that it can be normal. Thanks! |

From Ngoma Safari Lodge you have a great view of the Chobe River.
Ngoma Safari Lodge: Our full report
Situated overlooking the Chobe River and an adjacent floodplain Ngoma Safari Lodge is relatively new to the Chobe Forest Reserve, having opened in early 2011. It's one of only a handful of lodges along this western section of Chobe, which receives less visitors than the area to the east which is closer to Kasane.
The entrance of Ngoma comprises a thatched building, consisting of the main office and reception area, it is an open space nicely decorated with wooden African artifacts. Steps lead down through to the main area of camp. To one side is a small sitting room and bar, with sofas, chairs and a coffee table and a small wood burner, all positioned to optimize the view of the Chobe River. The lodge has a very classic safari feel, tastefully decorated without being over the top.
The dining room sits on the opposite side from the sitting area, also taking in the magnificent views onto the floodplains and Chobe River. Both the sitting area, bar and dining area feels like they are positioned on a thatch topped verandah. Further steps lead down to the first of a number of multi level platforms. The first level is paved and tables are set up for dining in the evenings, weather permitting. A couple of further steps down a small plunge pool also sits to one side for guests to use when the weather gets warm, with a couple of sun loungers to relax on. Further steps lead down to a few more seating areas with deck chairs, where a striking baobab tree stands. Each level makes the most of being situated upon the ridge, giving semi private and cosy little areas for guests to sit and enjoy the views and wildlife overlooking the escarpment.
Ngoma Safari Lodge's eight thatched chalets are joined to the main area by gravel pathways. Each chalet has a large double bed with mosquito net and looks out towards the flood plain through big glass windowpanes as well as a small seating area with comfortable lounge chairs. The chalets feel quite modern, decorated in muted tones with touches of blue and green. Each chalet has air conditioning, a ceiling fan, a tea and coffee station and minibar.
The en-suite bathroom is found at the rear of each suite on an elevated mantle. Here there's a bath set into the wall, his and her basins at each end and a large separate shower off to the side, as well as plenty of storage and a small hanging rail. The bathroom is very nice open and airy but not private, the bathroom overlooks the bedroom with only the loo in a separate cubicle with a door.
Each chalet also has a small outdoor patio area, with a small table, deck chairs and a small private plunge pool – which we particularly enjoyed! There's also an outdoor shower somewhat quirkily set on the patio with views down to the water but well screened by a wall of wooden poles.
Like most of the lodges in Chobe, Ngoma's activities focus on the 4WD game drives and boat cruises along the Chobe River. However, because of their position in the Chobe Forest Reserve, Ngoma are able to offer privately guided walking safaris accompanied by an armed Professional Guide as well as night drives in the Forest Reserve, which the camp overlooks.
These activities are only possible for those lodges situated in the western part of the park that have access to the Forest Reserve. The lodges to the eastern part of the park cannot due to the strict National Park rules, which do not allow night drives or walking. Ngoma can also arrange village and school visits to a nearby village. During our stay in May 2014 they were very keen to offer us night drives after supper, it was nice to see the guides and management enthusiastically promoting everything on offer.
Because the boat station is located near Kasane boat cruises are offered as a full-day activity. Guests begin the day on a morning game drive through the park to Kasane, the afternoon is spent on the boat which is then followed by another game drive back to Ngoma. The afternoon game drive won't necessarily take the Park route the entire way back – it depends on the time. Often guests will be driven back on the tar road for the last part of the trip in order to make it out of the park before sunset (park rules). We have enjoyed these day trips in the past – however they certainly make for long days and some guests in the past have found it quite tiring.
There is talk that a second boat station will be built much closer to the western side of the park – however until then boat cruises from Ngoma will continue to be full day activities.
Our view
Ngoma Safari Lodge is a newer addition to the quieter western end of the Chobe Riverfront area, an area of Chobe which is a favorite of ours. Being in the forest reserve does allow the lodge to offer a wider variety of activities, of which they are very enthusiastic. Ngoma is one of the more luxurious lodges in this western area, with more 'frills' than most. Its large 'suites' are light, airy and well-designed with superb views. Ngoma has a very laid back friendly atmosphere, while maintaining high services standards through its great team. Even with its air conditioning and plunge pools it feels closer to a safari lodge then many of the other options further east. Combine this with the area having relatively lower densities of visitors than further east on the riverfront, and we think Ngoma makes for a great lodge!Geographics
Location: Chobe National Park, Botswana
Ideal length of stay: Two or three nights, either at the start or end of your safari in Botswana, especially between July and October when game densities tend to be higher in this area.
Directions: It's roughly a 50-minute drive from Kasane Airport to Ngoma, largely along a tar road; transfers are made in an air-conditioned minibus.
Accessible by: Fly-and-Transfer
Food & drink
Usual board basis: Full Board
Food quality: The food during our stay in May 2014 was fabulous, well presented and very tasty!
Because activities tend to run on a slightly different format then the standard safari meals tend to follow a slightly different schedule depending on what your activity is for the day.
Breakfast of yoghurt, cereal, fruit, muffins, tea and coffee is served before the morning activity or full day excursion. As well as eggs cooked to order with sides such as bacon, sausage, baked beans and sautéed mushrooms. We particularly liked the way that the muesli ingredients were served in separate bowls so you could mix to your taste!
If you do not take a full day excursion on the boat Lunch is served after the morning game drive, this is off an al a carte menu, with a variety of options. We had a yummy chicken quesadilla.
If you take the full day excursion then the guide takes a packed lunch which is a delicious mix of a variety of picnic treats, such as cold chicken wings, quiche, boiled eggs and fruit.
Afternoon tea is a selection of a savory and sweet snack such as mini quiche, and chocolate orange cake.
Dinner is a three-course meal and was delicious. To start we had a very tasty butternut and ginger soup with croutons and freshly baked bread.
For the main meal we had lamb curry with poppadum's served on a bean risotto. For pudding we had a very filling apple strudel with fresh custard.
Vegetarians and many other special requirements can be catered for if sufficient notice is given.
Dining style: Mixture of group dining and individual tables
Dining locations: Indoor and Outdoor Dining
Cost of meal e.g. lunch: Included
Drinks included: Bottled water, soft drinks, local beers, spirits and a limited selection of (usually) South African red and white wines are included. Premier champagne and premium imported brands will cost extra and must be requested well in advance.
Attitude towards children: Children aged 10 years and over are welcome at Ngoma Safari Lodge.
Generally recommended for children: We would recommend Ngoma for older children aged around 14 years or more, who have a keen interest in wildlife. Ngoma strikes us as being a little more suited to couples.
Notes: Due to the presence of potentially dangerous wildlife around this unfenced camp. The pool is unfenced and there are steep drops in front of many of the chalets and viewing decks. Children must be under the constant supervision of their parents.
Communications: There is usually cellphone coverage at Ngoma as well as WiFi in the main area.
TV & radio: There is no TV or radio at Ngoma.
Health & safety
Malarial protection recommended: Yes
Medical care: The nearest doctor is in Kasane. Management and guides are first aid trained and medical evacuation is available in case of emergencies.
Dangerous animals: High Risk
Security measures: Guests are escorted to their chalets after dark as dangerous wildlife is known to wander through the camp. A thorough safety briefing is given on arrival. 'Fog horns' are provided in the chalets to summon help in case of emergency.
Fire safety: There are fire extinguishers at all the tents and in the main area.
Disabled access: On Request
Laundry facilities: A full laundry service is included. Laundry is collected in the morning and usually returned the same day, weather permitting.
Money: No exchange facilities are offered at Ngoma. There are small safes in all the tents.
Accepted payment on location: MasterCard and Visa credit cards are accepted; Diners and Amex are not. Cash in the form of South African rand, GB sterling, US dollars, euros and Botswana pula is accepted.
The information on this page is our report, of what we saw, felt and experienced personally on our visits.

The optimal number of sections to assess in staging thin melanomas without ulceration was three, with no significant difference in examining numerous tissue sections, according to recent study results.
Researchers in New Zealand conducted a search on the Pathlab database and included 71 cases of cutaneous melanomas 1 mm or less in Breslow thickness that were diagnosed between Jan. 1, 2012, and June 30, 2013. The researchers retrospectively retrieved and reviewed slides to compare the identification of the first dermal tumor mitotic figure, if present, at four checkpoints, including the examined first, third, fifth or tenth tissue section.

SANS Combining Security Intelligence and the Critical Security Controls
The Critical Security Controls for Effective Cyber Defense (CSCs) represent an established and solid set of guidelines for the government, financial, education, manufacturing and health care sectors, according to a 2013 SANS survey on the CSCs. SANS had the opportunity to review numerous features of LogRhythm's security information and event management (SIEM) platform with new security intelligence features built in for compliance. In our review, we focused on LogRhythm's ability to ease some of these pain points while meeting 10 of the most valuable CSCs.

Food For Thought
"The legalization of the termination of pregnancy is none other than the authorization given to an adult, with the approval of an established law, to take the lives of children yet unborn and thus incapable of defending themselves. It is difficult to imagine a more unjust situation, and it is very difficult to speak of obsession in a matter such as this, where we are dealing with a fundamental imperative of every good conscience — the defense of the right to life of an innocent and defenseless human being."- St. John Paul II

Jay Weiner's book is to my knowledge the first on a race and recount that captured the nation's (or at least the press') attention throughout much of 2009. Unfortunately, I suspect that it is likely to be the only one, as the media has long since moved on to other things. This is a pity as the race was too big a happening to be covered fully by just one book, even one written by MinnPost's Jay Weiner.

Oh yes, another news piece I can file under "not surprised, but still super disappointed." At this point in time, I can't say I'm quite looking forward to the Robocop Reboot—well Jose Padilha isn't a bad choice at all to direct, production woes and some very negative first reactions to the script have left me cold on the project. And now, we have another thing to worry about when it comes to the new Robocop—as revealed at Comic Con a few days ago, this Robocop will most likely have a PG-13 rating. Why is that such a travesty? Well I shall tell you…after the break.
Even though I really enjoyed the first Robocop, I'm not one of the film's many, many lovers—that said, one of its strongest aspects is the film's use of violence. Used both to hammer down the film's main point and as satirical farce, the original Robocop used blood and gore quite well to establish its tongue in cheek tone. But from the sounds of it, the new film won't going for the same angle at all—which pretty much puts the whole Robocop name in peril. From director Jose Padilha, see him bullshit his way into making this sound like a good thing:
"We were shooting the movie to be seen by the broadest possible audience, which means PG-13. This whole idea about 'RoboCop' has to be "R" because the first one was amazingly violent… I never really bought into that. You know, 'The Dark Knight' was PG-13, so you can get away with a lot."
Seriously, does anyone REALLY believe the man who directed Elite Squad was totally fine with a PG-13 rating? He certainly wanted to make it R, I have no doubt about that. But then Sony reared their ugly head like they so often have, and now we're going to get this PG-13 lame version. You can try to make this sound like a good thing by comparing it to The Dark Knight Padilha, but no one in their right mind is going to believe you. Man, I miss when Darren Aronofsky was behind this project…you know we would have gotten a kick-ass R rated version then. But instead, we're probably going to get something like Terminator Salvation—oh joy.
Starring Joel Kinnaman, Gary Oldman, Jay Baruchel, and many others, Robocop will hit theaters on February 12, 2014. I wouldn't get my hopes up.

Mark - I agree. I wonder what new features will be added. It seems like they are coming out with something new every couple of days. Will be interesting to see if they launch their photo hosting service this week.
Thanks for the comment.
Hey Mike,
Thank you for your comment. The 200/700 rule as you put it seemed so intuative I almost didn't write it up. Obviously there are many exceptions, but I do think it has some truth to it. I have actually come across people actually using the "200/700" reference in last couple days, so nice to see the idea getting spread around.
Sorry I didn't reply inline on tools quesiton. I listed three potential tooks in another comment.
I totally agree at putting the work in to engage influencers. The best is when it happens organically, but that is what you are saying.
Most people who read Social Media Today know that long term it is about quality of contribution and engagements. But I feel sometimes that accounts who are truely engaged, but don't have huge Klout scores or large follower numbers, are overlooked.
Thanks Lisa.
I will be interested in hearing your results.
Karen - Thanks for commenting.
I think you can actually combine those two approaches. Look for accounts that meet the criteria, and then use your "instinct" which I assume includes looking at the profile, tweets, etc to make the final judgement.
This criteria came out at looking at engagement analytics, but at the same time you can't only look in that range all the time. The account might be a perfect match on content, location or style. So keep doing what you are doing, but just keep it in mind.
Social Marketing - Thank you for commenting.
A few tools work well with this concept.
Social Bro (http://www.socialbro.com) is a newer free tool that will let your search bios for keywords as well as control for following/follower numbers. They actually have a number of criteria you can use. The software is new, but it functions pretty well.
If you use Hootsuite, you can look through your followers using the 200-700 criteria to look for who to follow back or try to engage. You can also look through lists related to your topic and Hootsuite will display following/follower numbers plus tweets a day and Klout scores.
Finally, Formulists (http://www.formulists.com) also allows sorting for most of the lists you create using following/follower numbers. They have over a dozen different ways to create targeted lists. Since Twitter still allows automation in creating lists, this can be a good way to target niches while also using the 200-700 criteria. Explore different ways to create lists, filter by the criteria and then you can use the resulting lists to think about who to target.
Hope that helps.

An expert committee looking into the modalities of the proposed single entrance test for admission to the MBBS course across India has recommended that there be no negative marking in the exam.
The committee, set up by the Medical Council of India (MCI), has recommended objective-type questions and a percentile score to determine merit in the National Eligibility-cum-Entrance Test (NEET) from next year. The recommendations have been submitted to the MCI and its Board of Governors will soon take a call after consulting the Union Health Ministry.
Sources say the suggestion of not having negative marking is rooted in concern over low scores by applicants, leading to vacant seats in medical colleges. Such concerns have primarily been voiced by the north-eastern States, which fear that their students may not match up with others. In this context, the MCI is working on the possibility of lowering the cut-off marks. At present, the proposed cut-off is 50 per cent for the general category students and 40 per cent for the reserved categories.
K.K. Talwar, Chairman of the MCI Board of Governors, told PTI, "We do not want any seat to go vacant. We are working to ensure that all MBBS seats are filled up. We are proposing to replace the old percentage system with percentiles to determine the merit list. We may further keep a clause for relaxing this cut-off percentile in such States where the MBBS seats are not filled. Also, we have clarified the misconception that some States will lose their medical seats. Their seats will remain with them and different States will do their own counselling for the MBBS admission."
It is proposed to have 180 questions, with 90 questions from biology and 45 each from physics and chemistry, in the exam.
The MCI will hold the proposed NEET in collaboration with the Central Board of Secondary Education (CBSE) in February for admission to 40,335 MBBS seats in 330 medical colleges. About 10 lakh candidates are likely to sit for the examination.
