Did you know?
Entrance to all of Sun City's theme park rides is free for hotel guests.
Known worldwide for its exotic entertainment options, the Sun City theme park is more a mini-city than a park, with so many attractions and entertainment options that first-time visitors may find it pleasantly bewildering.
Located in the North West province, less than 200 km from the major urban centres of Johannesburg and Pretoria, the Sun City entertainment park enthrals all with its African theme and multitude of entertainment options.
Far enough from South Africa's major cities to qualify as a real getaway from hectic city life, Sun City is nevertheless the ultimate all-in-one entertainment destination.
Activities run the gamut from adventure sports and safari options to a world-famous golf course and a wide variety of rides and games to keep the children happily busy.
Many will probably want to swing their clubs at the Gary Player Country Club, home to the world-famous Nedbank Golf Challenge.
Others may want to relax in the sun poolside at the Valley of the Waves while the kids go screaming down one of the water park's many thrilling slides.
Adults can try their luck at one of the biggest casinos in Africa (with its 38 gaming tables) before taking in a revue or live music show, or simply enjoy a meal at one of the many award-winning restaurants. Choose from Asian, traditional South African, steakhouse or Italian; or just order from one of the many fast food outlets.
Kamp Kwena, an activity park for children where they can learn, play and make new friends, will keep lively little minds well occupied. Mini-cars, trampolines, adventure golf and more ensure that the kids do not miss their parents too much.
Sun City is not just a hotel or an entertainment complex or even just a theme park; it's an entire experience.

Tools to help make the APK -> BAR process easier (UPDATED)
Well guys, I made some batch files to simplify the loading of BAR files before and now I'm back with some more batch files to streamline the APK to BAR conversion process, and the signing process.
Grab this ZIP file and extract it to the root of your C drive. You should end up with a folder structure like so "C:\apk2bar" that has my "apk2bar-HaTaX.bat" and "signbar-HaTaX.bat" in there.(apk2bar-HaTaX.zip)
If this is your first time dipping your toes into this, all you need besides this file is the Android SDK to get started. And if you plan on sharing these BAR files with others, you should go get yourself some signing keys pronto, they take a few days to get sometimes. That means yes, the Blackberry command line converter and signing tools are in this ZIP file and you don't need to go grab those again.
I don't need to go into detail twice for this, I included a "README" file in the zip that outlines the steps you need to take, so I'll just post the contents of it here:
Code:Hello fellow BlackBerry lovers!!! I've made a few batch files before to make things easier, and here is the latest installment to simplify the two step process to porting Android APKs over to the Android Player on the BlackBerry Playbook. apk2bar-HaTaX.bat - This batch file processes the APK and converts it to a loadable BAR file. It will place the BAR file in the same directory the APK file was in. First things first, go get your Android SDK downloaded from here: http://developer.android.com/sdk/index.html When running the installer, remember where you installed the SDK! You're going to need that path in a future step, I installed to "C:\android-sdk" to keep things simple and clean. Second, get that SDK installed and download the "SDK Platform" from the "Android 2.3.3 (API10)" list in the Android SDK Manager tree. Third, setup the apk2bar-HaTaX.bat file by opening it up in notepad and make sure the "ANDROIDSDK=" line has the correct path to the installed SDK. You're set at this point! Just drag an APK onto the batch file in windows explorer and it should start working it's magic. If the file isn't compatible you'll see that listed in the output at the end. signbar-HaTaX.bat - This batch file signs the BAR file created by apk2bar-HaTaX.bat. First, make sure you've gone through the steps to get your signing keys from RIM. Start that process at this URL: https://www.blackberry.com/SignedKeys/ Second, get those keys activated and create a working p12 certificate file. Follow the steps at this URL if you need help: http://docs.blackberry.com/en/developers/deliverables/27280/Configure_app_signing_from_cmd_line_1463563_11.jsp Third, setup the signbar-HaTaX.bat file by opening it up in notepad and make sure the 3 lines are properly filled out. You should know where your .p12 file is, and the passwords for both the .p12 and the CSK password. (You created these passwords when you went through step 2 above) You're set again! Just drag a BAR file made with apk2bar-HaTaX.bat onto the batch file in windows explorer and you will get a signed BAR file ready to be loaded on any Playbook running OS 2.0 with developer mode on. Good luck!
Let me know what you think and how it works for you! I'll consider putting together OSX / Linux shell scripts for this if there's enough demand as well.
New version 1.2 posted on 12-17-2011
This version supports multiple files at once, now you can select multiple files to have converted or signed and it will process them one by one. I know, something that would have been more useful a while ago, but better late then never!!
New version 1.1 posted on 11-1-2011
This version now supports long file names in paths and APK names.
Problems with APKs in a root folder of a drive fixed (C:\ for example).
Some additional tweaks to ensure the correct file is passed.
Default output of APK left up to apk2bar application now, they WILL be placed where the original APK was located

Awesome.... let the mass apk conversions commence
Sent from Tapatalk on my Playbook - 10-20-2011, 02:41 AM Thread Author #3
D@mn, you is fast papped...
Hopefully this will help the people out that aren't so familiar with the whole process. Only ugly part is getting the signing keys and following the registration instructions to get a working .p12 file. Not much I can do to work around that...
Other then that, it should make the process a lot faster for those that are just testing and dumping these APKs like candy. - 10-20-2011, 02:52 AM #5
Was just luck actually, lol. Just happened to look at the post right after you made it.
Sent from Tapatalk on my Playbook - 10-20-2011, 05:03 AM Thread Author #7
I did notice one small thing, don't have your APKs in the root folder of a drive. It chops the last "\" off and it doesn't have a proper output path then. I'll fix this soon and post up a new link, but for now just put it in "C:\Temp" or something before dragging it over.
I cant find my DEVCERTPASS or CSKPASS password anywhere. Anyway I can retrieve it from my current environment?! I use Flash Builder.
Very stupid question, do you have to sign the file after the conversion, or is it suppose to work without signing? - 10-20-2011, 09:04 AM #11
Same here as well, exiting with nothing created, nothing in log either.
me too,no file was created
For those of you having issues with this, if you are using Windows Vista or Windows 7 Microsoft changed the behavior of allowing drag and drop on batch files. Dropping the apk file on the .bat file will not work. You will have to open a command prompt and run it from there with the path to the apk file as an argument to the apk2bar-HaTax.bat file. I just confirmed that this does work.
trie with command prompt,nothing happened
I have not tested on Windows XP. Howerver I am on Windows 7 and dragging the file on top of the bat file was giving me the same issues. I just opened a command prompt and changed directory to where the apk2bar-HaTax.bat file was and ran apk2bar-HaTax.bat {path to apk file} and it worked just fine. Same with the signapk bat file as well. All worked just fine so it is definately not something in the batch file that is not working just how windows is handling the drop.
Thanked by 3:Gossieur (10-20-2011), nimrodity (10-20-2011), Vanderchoac (11-16-2011)
Based on that error it appears you are using the full tools from Blackberry and not the tools that HaTax provided. If that is the case I am not sure as I was using HaTax's attached zip file and instructions on the repackage.
ok the converting worked now,but can i test the bar without signing.
I dont have the signing keys,does it work without? - 10-20-2011, 12:39 PM #24
i just signed up for the keys,hope it be soon so i can try signing my bars
I do believe you must sign the app to make it work on the OS. You can get free signing keys from RIM to do this. The only way to use unsigned apps is with a debug token which you would get from RIM when you get your signing keys. So either way you will have to get signing keys. -

My question is what should I do and who should I contact for more suggestions?

bobble filtered water bottle review
In my neighborhood no one likes the taste of the local tap water. The truth is we buy spring water and filter that! Needless to say, I was very excited to review a bobble! bobble is a reusable water bottle that filters water before you even drink it. I was sent a medium bobble that holds 18.5oz ($9.99 ARV)! bobble celebrated their 2nd anniversary this March. Here is a little background on how bobble came to be.
The story behind bobble:
In 2008 our founders, Richard and Stephanie Smiedt, were developing product in Asia when they passed by an open field piled high with factory waste. The scale was massive, breathtaking (quite literally). The field was a graphic illustration of the often-invisible impact of production and consumption. Richard and Stephanie felt compelled to move in a different direction.
They turned their attention towards single-serve plastic water bottles. If those bottles were exacting a murderous toll on the environment, they would simply need to reinvent them. They had seen consumer willingness to replace plastic bags in the checkout line and felt confident consumers would do the same with water bottles. The invention of bobble's portable filter was a signature milestone; the filter makes bobble possible, and distinguishes it from the cluttered field of water bottles. With bobble, consumers could have the experience of single-serve, minus its financial and environmental cost.
How does bobble work?
My thoughts:
Each bobble filter can filter up to 40 gallons. It is recommended to change filters every two months. According to bobble, the carbon filter exceeds NSF International Standard 42 for chlorine, taste and odor reduction. It works great, trust me! I followed the instructions to fill the bottle with water then squeeze it out once before drinking. Tiny carbon particles will come out the first time it gets wet, hence the reason for pre-drinking filtering. I took it a step further and filled the bobble with water a second time to see if any particles come out again. It didn't! The water was perfectly clear. The next step was taste. I was brave, very brave. I tried it with my tap water from the sink. It tasted great! I was very very surprised. We have a brita and it never made the tap water taste that good.
My biggest surprise was how lightweight the plastic is – is easy to squeeze. The top is easy to pull up also, my son can pull it up. He always needs my help to pull up traditional sport tops. bobble also makes a bobble Jug that I'm planning to purchase soon!
All bobbles are made in the USA, and can be purchased on the bobble website. Make sure you connect with bobble on Facebook and @waterbobble on Twitter.

I've seen these, wondered if it was just another gimmick but maybe I should give it a try
I'm with you in the fact that our water could take down an elephant with all the nasty stuff it has in it! Which is why we get ours treated at the local environmental store.
I like this idea that you can have a little water bottle that does the same thing-It's easier and probably more convenient
I've seen these all around whole foods….must try one.
I have one of these. I like it very much! The only thing I don't like is that the opening is small, so you can't get in there with a brush to wash it out really well, but I rinse it out with hot water everyday. It's definitely worth the $9.99, and not having to buy so much bottled water anymore!
You need the Bobble Brush! It's a cute little silicone brush with a long handle, designed for cleaning awkward bottles like these.
If this can make my water taste good it is worth it's weight in gold~! I spent $6000 to drill a well (which it took me 3 years to save for and still financed half) last year and now we can't drink the water. It smell and taste so bad. The water is so hard that it turns all the sinks tub and toilet orange from the iron and I have to scrub and scrub each week trying to clean the porcelain. We buy gallons of water each week to cook and drink with and it would be so great to be able to just pour and drink without lugging all that water. To be able to pour a bottle of water from our tap and head out the door would be wonderful. Bobble filtered water bottle sounds great. I priced what it would cost to put in a filtration system and about fainted. Another $2800 bucks~!!!!
I'm using bobble and I like it… it a grate way to take water anywhere…

Hi, I'm new to gardening and just bought my first plant a couple of days ago. Its a 10 inch Kramers Surpreme Camellia, which likes partial shade and is a winter bloomer. This is probably a dumb question, but is it possible for me to keep this plant indoors? I did some reading and found that this plant will only bloom if the nights are cold: below 55. Indoors, my house is probably around 62 at night. Have any of you guys in california been able to keep this plant indoors and had any luck with it blooming?
Well, sorry for the silly question, but I'm kinda new. I did some research for indoor plants but found nothing about this plant. |

Nebraska neighborhoods' crime stats now online
[Lincoln, NB]
(LINCOLN, Neb.) -- Local residents now can get up to date information on crime statistics in their neighborhoods thanks to new interactive crime maps on the Lincoln Police Department's Web page.
"I know people are interested in seeing what happens in our community," Chief Tom Casady told the Lincoln Journal Star. "It's one thing to look at older crime maps and another to be able to look at one with current data."
This is the first time that the department's site - www.ci.lincoln.ne.us/city/police/index.htm - has had daily information.
Citizens can point to their neighborhood on the map, click and see daily crime information instead of having to wait until the next publication of data, according to the Star.
By keeping informed on the latest crime information, people can change their behavior to better protect their property and safety, Casady told the paper.
"Just being in tune with crimes in my own neighborhood has changed my own personal habits," Casady said.
The maps can be parsed to show crimes ranging from homicide to indecent exposure to see what type of crime is occurring; or citizens can also search different types of locations like parks, schools, or streets to see where crime is happening.
The chief warns about drawing too many conclusions from the maps.
"This data is not perfect," he told the newspaper. "Trying to interpret crime maps can be problematic...we can't map every crime, and comparing can get shaky pretty quick."
But in all, the chief believes the maps will show people that crime is every where.
"I'm the police chief, and I know crimes occur all over town," he said. "But I think a lot of people don't understand that crimes happen right down the street."

Has anyone pressure canned gazpacho? Does it hold up well? Any recipes? I made a bunch and I'm not sure what to do with it...

The joy of gazpacho is its freshness. My guess is if you did manage to pressure-can it, the results would be totally unappealing. Carol |
I decided against pressure canning when I found the website below, which suggests freezing gazpacho to save it. While I also contend that fresh is best (including gazpacho, salsa, marinara, etc), I like to extend the harvest as long as possible, which is why I can my veggies. |

When you bans guns altogether, you remove a law abiding citizens right to self protection. Hammond woman fatally shoots alleged stalker November 14, 2007 (HAMMOND, Ind.) - A northwest Indiana woman shot her alleged stalker to death. Police say 41-year-old Ryan Lee Bergner broke into the woman's home in Hammond Monday night. The 51-year-old woman called 9-1-1 and hid in a closet with a gun she had been given for protection. She says she shot him when he opened the closet door and started choking her. His family says Bergner was a good man. Neighbors say the woman's action is understandable. "There is no way there should be any charges on her. It is justifiable homicide. She was on the phone with police. They told her exactly what to do. What more are you asking for when some guy's coming at you? I mean, that's defense," said Alison Joseph, woman's neighbor. "We're just stunned by the accusations that are being made towards him. Like I said, he's not that kind of person at all. Everybody that knew him knows Ryan is not that kind of person," said Melissa Bergner, Bergner's sister-in-law. There is no word yet whether prosecutors will file charges against the woman in this case. http://abclocal.go.com/wls/story?section=local&id=5762204
When freedom is outlawed, only outlaws will be free.. as much as I agree with what that woman did, my issue has always been with the so called big weapons.. automatic rifles, compact machine guns etc.

The Future of Flash
Re:Flash is old-school ajax (468 comments)
What about flash sites that degrade to html for lynx, etc.? Believe it or not, such things *are* possible.
Plus, when I talk about browser independence I was referring more to look-and-feel being exactly the same on other browsers, the way pdf is. If you use xhtml/css you always run into versioning issues anyway so either way you lose sometimes.

We love tomatoes! Whether it's a bowl of pasta with homemade sauce or fried green tomatoes we love them in any and every possible way. Recently I decided to do something a little different. I decided to try my hand at tomato chips. Yep, you read that right, tomato chips. I don't buy chips because it's too easy to sit and consume an entire bag before you realize what you are doing but with tomato chips you don't have to worry about the added fat, cholesterol or preservatives. The super cool thing about these chips is that you can also grind them into powder. My kids say it smells like spaghetti in a jar because of the herbs used. Once ground you can add tomato powder to soups, meats, eggs, anything you want, the possibilities are endless. Customize them to your liking, use different herbs and spices, go nuts!

Friday, July 5th, 2013Recipe Round-Up for March 2, 2012
Monday, March 4th, 2013Potato-Leek NOT soup
Monday, March 4th, 2013
I love, love, love potatoes. No really- hubby vs. a beautiful, loaded, baked potato I honestly don't know which would win my affections. (rest assured kids vs. potato? I would of course choose the kids). The potato is so versatile- it can be the star of the show or take a supporting role. It can be all gussied up and glamorous or beautifully simple and elegant. It can be slim and healthy or full of tantalizing fat with flavors that haunt my dreams (yes, I dream of food- DON'T JUDGE). I have yet to meet a potato I didn't like.
Of course, even knowing all of the fabulous ways a potato can make a dinner table appearance I found myself falling into a rut. OK- I didn't notice the rut, hubby bluntly pointed it out as I was serving potato- leek soup for the umpteenth time. I'm sorry- when I see potatoes and leeks in the basket my mind immediately pairs them in the delicious, creamy, comfort food known as soup. And while I would be happy eating soup every day I decided to honor his not-so-subtle request for something that was NOT soup.
One problem- I still had potatoes and leeks…a lot of them. So I did what I always do in times of culinary dilemma. I rolled up my sleeves, got into the kitchen, and started playing around. What I came up with was a slightly spicy casserole that both used up my produce and allowed hubby to feel free from the clutches of a soup rut.
I started by slicing my Yukon Gold potatoes nice and thin and then slightly browning them in olive oil and putting them into a glass baking dish. You could probably skip this step but as one of hubby's biggest complaints was texture, it helped to ensure a bit of a bite.
I made a nice gluten-free sauce by cooking the finely chopped leeks in some butter (in the immortal words of Julia Child "You could leave it out but you'll be sorry"), tossing in some roasted red bell pepper and roasted hatch peppers, stirring in sorghum flour and spices, and then whisking in chicken broth and of course- cheese. That got poured over the potatoes and topped with yes, more cheese, and it all came together in one creamy casserole that was NOT soup. The slightly spicy southwest flavors combined with the comfort of potato and the recipe was definitely a hit. I hope your family enjoys it as much as mine did.
- 2 lbs Yukon Gold Potatoes- thinly sliced
- 1 lb Russet Potatoes- thinly sliced
- Olive Oil
- Butter (a bit less than 1/4 cup)
- 1 Leek- diced (can use regular onion)
- 3 Red Bell Peppers- Roasted, Seeded and Diced
- 3-4 Hatch Peppers- Roasted, Seeded and Diced- (or one can of diced chilies)
- 1 tsp Garlic powder
- 1 tsp Cumin powder
- 1/4 cup Sorghum Flour
- 1-2 Cups Broth (veg or chicken)
- 1-2 cup Shredded Cheese- I like a mix of cheddar and pepper Jack but whatever you have on hand works.
- Heat the oil in a large skillet and slightly brown the sliced potatoes. Then transfer to a 9x13 baking dish.
- Cook the diced leek in butter until soft and translucent. Then sprinkle in the Garlic, Cumin, Salt, and Pepper.
- Toss in the diced peppers and chilies and let that mix cook for just a minute.
- Sprinkle in the Sorghum flour. Stir until you can no longer see the white of the flour. Let it cook for just a minute so that the flour taste cooks out.
- Gradually pour in the broth. Add a little bit and then use a whisk to stir it into the flour mix. Add more and stir- keep whisking, cooking, and adding broth until the sauce is the desired consistency (yes even soup-like).
- Whisk in about half a cup of shredded cheese.
- When the sauce is at the right consistency pour it over the potatoes and gently stir to mix.
- Cover with foil and Bake at 450 for about 20 mins (longer if you did not brown the potatoes). When the potatoes are soft cover the casserole with cheese. Turn off the oven and put the potatoes back in with the door closed until the cheese is evenly ooey gooey. This is my favorite way to melt the cheese on a casserole.
- Let it sit to cool slightly before serving..
- This is great as a side dish for beef, chicken, or pork. Adding cooked Diced Chicken, Sausage, or Bacon to the sauce could turn it into a full meal.
Usin' up the Giant Yams
Tuesday, February 12th, 2013When I printed up the Bountiful Basket Volunteer Site Coordinator (VSC) paperwork on Friday night I looked through and was surprised to see that we would only be receiving one yam per basket. When I told my husband, he was equally surprised and we proceeded to have a merry (albeit disrespectful) discussion about what a family of 6 could do with ONE YAM. However, when the boxes of yams were opened at the site the next day, all jokes of individual dollops of mashed yam were cast aside. Oh we of little faith…we should have known Sally and Tanya would not let us down. Instead of the long, thin, small yams we were expecting we discovered HUGE yams quickly deemed by volunteers "giant baby yams". Not baby because they were small mind you. Baby because these yams are in fact the size of a newborn baby. The whopper in the picture above weighed in at 5 lbs 6 oz (the yam, not the child).
While these ginormous yams were fun, and kept the participants and volunteers smiling all through the cold morning distribution, I will admit I felt a level of culinary intimidation when I hoisted the baby yam out of its basket and placed it on my counter. It then sat, intimidating me for a few days before I finally decided to buckle down and do something with it. And am I ever glad I did. That baby yam turned into a breakfast that the whole family enjoyed. It's a good thing too because it made a LOT! My Paleo Sweet Potato Pancakes are both delicious and nutritious. In fact, These are so yummy hubby not only ate them, he volunteered to clean up (a chore which included scrubbing the orange-tinted shredder attachment).
I start off by partially baking the yam. I don't like yam mush so I bake it to where it is "al dente". This allows me to run it through my Kitchen Aid shredder attachment without making puree. Once it's all shred it should look like this:
I gently stir in diced onion, coconut flour, spices, and beaten egg. Then I use a measuring cup to form it and gently press it into the hot coconut oil.
Once they're crispy and brown on both sides pat the pancakes down with a paper towel, serve up, and enjoy!
If you have been a little intimidated by the big yam I recommend popping it in the oven and starting on these delicious Paleo Sweet Potato Pancakes (you may want to have a chore in mind just in case you get appreciative helpers). If crispy, fried, pancakes aren't your thing (though I don't know how they could not be) I've included links to other recipes that will help you get over the intimidation. Grab that yam and get cooking!
- 1 Giant Baby Yam (or several normal yams…whatever)
- 1 onion finely diced
- 3 eggs
- 1-2 Tbls of Coconut Flour (This is just a binder- you can use whatever flour is on hand)
- Dash of Nutmeg (for a different flavor try smoky paprika or chili powder)
- Salt and Pepper
- 1/4 cup of coconut oil
- Bake the yam at 350 for about 45 mins (varies depending on size). You do not want it to get soft all the way through. You want it cooked soft enough to pierce but staying firm enough that a knife will not go all the way through easily (think al-dente pasta)
- Place the yam in the fridge until it is cool enough to work with.
- Peel the yam. Use a box grater or the grating attachment to a mixer to grate the yam into "hashbrown" style strings. (Be careful- it mushes easily but this recipe tastes better with some texture.)
- Season the grated yam with the coconut flour, nutmeg, salt, and pepper to taste.
- GENTLY mix in the diced onion
- Beat the eggs and pour into the yam mixture. Use a fork to gently toss the egg into the yam.
- Melt the coconut oil in a large skillet over medium heat.
- Spoon 1/4 cup of yam mix into the coconut oil gently pressing to spread and flatten into a pancake shape. Repeat for as many pancakes as your skillet will comfortably hold.
- Flip when the first side is crispy and browning.
- When both sides are done remove onto paper towels and sprinkle with sea salt.
Strawberry Chipotle Jam
Tuesday, February 5th, 2013One of the (many) drawbacks of being a gluten-free and nut-free household is that PB&J sandwiches are few and far between. This is hard for me because not only do I love that lunchbox staple, particularly when accompanied by a tall glass of milk (another no-no in our house), but I also really love making jams and jellies. Unfortunately these goodies just don't get used up as quickly in our home as they used to so I have had to make a decision- stop making them OR get creative with them. I have learned that one of the (many) advantages to being a gluten-free, nut-free household is that I have the opportunity to get creative with the products I have on hand so that is the choice I have made. Recently, I have taken my love of jam making to new levels. I have been trying to find unusual ingredients and flavor combinations and then use them in ways that I have not tried before. Pineapple-Lime Jam is now one of my favorite cake filling flavors. (and thanks to BB I have a frequent supply of pineapple). Apricot-Rosemary Jam has become a go-to for an elegant Sunday meal of glazed Roast Chicken. One of my most requested flavors is Strawberry-Chipotle. As strawberries pop up in the basket and the offerings page I try to keep some out of the view of the kiddos in order to make a batch of this delectable delicacy.
The fresh, sweet strawberries pair beautifully with the spicy smokiness of chipotle peppers. The result of this pairing is a rich, red-hued jam that is versatile and delicious. The deep red of this jam and the resulting sexiness (yes, I'm weird and totally think food can be sexy) of the dishes it creates make this a perfect part of a Romantic Valentine's Day dinner. I'm giving you here the basic jam recipe and three of my favorite ways to use it up. I will warn you that these are not all the healthiest of recipes. (I'm a sucker for cream cheese) But for a special occasion they are fabulous!
- About 3 lbs of strawberries
- 2 large lemons- zest and juice
- 6 cups of sugar (told you it wasn't the healthiest)
- 4-6 chipotle peppers minced plus a few drops of the adobo sauce to taste (watch out if you are Gluten-Free many brands have gluten. The one GF brand I have found is La Costena)
- 1/4 tsp salt
- Chop half of the berries into small pieces, smash the rest, and mix together. You should end up with a total of 6 cups- a little extra is OK.
- In a saucepan combine the lemon juice, zest, sugar and salt over medium heat. Stir until the sugar dissolves. This is a thick, heavy mixture- be sure that you stir everything up from the bottom so you do not burn your sugar (This is the voice of experience speaking)
- Add all the berries, peppers, and adobo sauce to the pan (be careful as you add sauce- the flavor will intensify as it cooks.)
- Bring to a good boil and simmer. And simmer. And simmer. Seriously it could take up to 40 mins so just keep stirring and be patient.
- Check the gel consistency by placing a small amount on a very cold spoon, If it is the desired consistency take it off the heat. If it is still too runny…keep simmering!
- Place the hot jam in prepared jars. You can seal in a hot water bath according to the guidelines for your area (Vegas is 15 mins). Or you can refrigerate immediately and use up within a week or two. This recipe usually gets me 5-6 jars.
- 1 Jar Strawberry Chipotle Jam
- 1 8 oz block of cream cheese
- Assorted Crackers, pita, bread, veggies, etc. for dipping
- Put the block of cream cheese into an oven-proof dish.
- Spoon the jam over the cream cheese.
- Bake in a 350 oven for 7-10 mins. until the cream cheese is soft.
- Serve up and enjoy!
- Strawberry Chipotle Jam
- Oil of your choice (I like olive for this)
- Spinach
- Sliced or chopped Strawberries
- Feta Cheese
- Grilled Steak- Thinly sliced (this is even better if you have used some of the jam to glaze the steak as it grills)
- Make a quick vinaigrette by whisking some of the jam into the oil (about two parts oil to one part jam) I like giving this a couple of zaps through the blender so that it is less likely to separate and has a creamier texture.
- Arrange the spinach and strawberries on the salad plate.
- Top with the sliced steak, drizzle with the dressing, sprinkle with feta cheese
- Strawberry Chipotle Jam
- Water
- Chicken- whole, legs, breast- whatever you like
- Thin some of the jam with a little water (or if your jam turns out a little runny just go with that)
- Dry the chicken well. Season with salt, pepper, garlic powder, and cumin.
- Bake or grill as desired using the thin jam as a glaze. If you are roasting a whole chicken don't start the glaze right away as it will over cook- start glazing about half way through your cooking time.
- The jam gives the chicken a beautiful color and flavor. This dish is delicious paired with potatoes or rice, a nice salad, and hot green beans.

Your 4-step look-younger plan
Next, apply a moisturizer formulated with peptides. These short chains of amino acid not only hydrate skin but also stimulate the production of collagen and hyaluronic acid. Plus, they inhibit the enzymes that break down collagen, preventing future wrinkles. Look for one formulated with lubricating silicone derivatives such as dimethicone or cyclomethicone. "These provide instant gratification by filling in lines and crevices," says Lupo. Makeup goes on more smoothly, too, de-emphasizing creases. Try Olay Regenerist Daily Regenerating Serum ($19; drugstores).
At night:
Use retinoids—as often as you can tolerate or as your doctor tells you. "There's no doubt about it—retinoids are the answer for fine lines," says Ranella Hirsch, MD, a cosmetic dermatologist in Cambridge, MA, and president of the American Society of Cosmetic Dermatology and Aesthetic Surgery. Many studies show that these multitaskers, which are derived from vitamin A, turn over the top layers of skin and stimulate the production of collagen and hyaluronic acid.
Because retinoids can be irritating, first timers should prep skin for 2 weeks with an antioxidant such as coffeeberry or green tea. Every other night after that, dab on an OTC retinol cream, followed by an antioxidant. Some retinols are time released to reduce dryness, but Lupo advises those with sensitive skin to build up tolerance for a few weeks by putting the cream on for 5 minutes every other night and then rinsing it off. As skin acclimates, work up to full nightly applications. Try Philosophy Save Me ($60; philosophy.com).
Use an AHA cream twice a week. Once you can use a retinoid every evening without experiencing irritation, boost its benefits by substituting it with an alpha hydroxy acid (AHA) twice a week. "Both ingredients exfoliate skin, leaving it brighter and smoother," says Lupo. "But because they stimulate cell renewal in different ways, you'll get maximum improvement using both." If skin is dry, choose an AHA formulated with lactic acid, the most moisturizing form. Try Lotion Plus AHA 15 by NeoStrata ($28; ulta.com) and Kiss My Face Peaches & Creme AHA 8% ($9; kissmyface.com).

I just got done kegging my 54th batch of beer, all have been kits...the majority from NB but recently I have been trying other places. For me kits have always been easy, you get what you need and when you are done you have nothing left over. I have been considering trying some recipes I have found on the net or maybe even doing some of my own. For those that do this do you just accept the fact that you will have extras, do you try and make recipes that come out to even pounds and ounces, do you keep the extra and try and fit it into another recipe or do you just accept the fact that there will be a bit of waste?
Only extras I end up with are hops. I seal them the best I can and put them in the freezer for a later recipe. If you have DME left over, use it for starters.
Depending on what the pound of stuff I've got left over is I might save it or just use it, pending on the beer also. Like if its extra 2# of crystal I wouldn't throw that into the same recipe if it already had crystal in it. If its extra base malt or extract then a higher gravity is typically nicer, unless its meant to be a session beer. Recently I made a leftovers ipa which ended up with a very odd grain bill but still tasted great. You'll also find buying the items individually, especially in bulkier quantities, will be cheaper than the kits run.
Grains store fine at 'cool' temps (70 F and below). Just seal to keep mice and their bigger friends away. Hops store just fine in freezer. If you use them within a couple of years you will be OK. As you get more of a perfectionist, 2 years may be stretching it, but I find with decent sealing they do fine over a couple of years. DME stores fine dry. Any moisture will create rocks. You can use rocks, but the DME will be starting to deteriorate. I store LME for a few months open, (at 65 F) and it seems to do OK. I buy 33 lbs containers which last about 5 brews. Use the lightest extract you can get and then it can be used in any recipe. That way it will not stick around for long. Providing you store it well, both grains and hops will keep for a long time.

Prince Radu Duda drops bid for Presidency
Just days ago it emerged that the support ratings of Prince Radu's presidential campaign hit double digits for the first time. That, however, was apparently not enough to keep the husband of Crown Princess Margarita of Romania in fight for Cotroceni Palace: yesterday, Prince Radu announced that his campaign is over.
The Prince said he was very sad to make the decision but had 'hopes for the future'. He maintained that the election campaign was not a fair race but merely a fight between different political clans: "Most Romanian politicians act as though the state and public institutions are personal goods. The current president began the process of privatization of the Romanian state. The next president will continue it."
Radu Duda announced his intention to fun for Presidency in April and registered as an independent candidate, without links to or support of any political party. At the time, Prince Radu declared that should he be successful, he would not seek to restore the Monarchy.
Former King Michael of Romania supported both his son-in-law's campaign and his decision to end it.
You can read more about the Royal Family of Romania in this thread.

Lake Margherita or Lake Abaya (Abaya Hayk in Amharic) is a lake in the Southern Nations Nationalities Region of Ethiopia. The lake was named in 1896 as Lake Margherita by the Italian explorer Vittorio Bottego, the first European to visit the lake, to honor the wife of king Umberto I of Italy, Queen Margherita.[1]
Lake Margherita is located in the Main Ethiopian Rift, east of the Guge Mountains. It is fed on its northern shore by the Bilate which rises on the southern slopes of Mount Gurage, and the Gidabo. The town of Arba Minch lies on its southwestern shore, and the southern shores are part of the Nechisar National Park. Just to the south is Lake Chamo. Lake Margherita is 60 kilometers long and 20 wide,[2] with a surface area of 1162 square kilometers.[3] It has a maximum depth of 13.1 meters and is at an elevation of 1285 meters.[3] There are a number of islands in this lake, the largest being Aruro;[4] others include Gidicho, Welege, Galmaka, and Alkali. The lake is red due to a high load of suspended sediments.[5] Lake Abaya does not always have an outflow, but in some years it overflows into Lake Chamo.
Savanna, known for its wildlife and birdlife surrounds the lake, which is also fished by local people. According to the Ethiopian Department of Fisheries and Aquaculture, 412 tonnes of fish are landed each year, which the department estimates is 69% of its sustainable amount.[6]

About This Project
I needed a project, my daughter and son-in-law wanted a cabinet that had to be custom built to fit in their small space. It was just what I needed. Nothing simple for my 1st time, oh, no! I wanted doors and drawers. Learned a lot, and know I have a lot more to learn. The importance of getting things square is probably #1 on my list. I thought I'd start parking my car in the garage, but this was too much fun - the tools are staying!

RigNet To Acquire Inmarsat's Energy Broadband Business And Become A Global Xpress Distribution Partner
- Acquisition Will Provide RigNet With New Technologies, Customers and Geographies
- RigNet Will Become a Key Distributor to the Energy Market of Inmarsat's Global Xpress, a New-Generation, High-Throughput Satellite Communications Network
HOUSTON, Aug. 1, 2013 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- RigNet, Inc. (Nasdaq:RNET), a leading global provider of managed remote communications solutions to the oil and gas industry, today announced a strategic deal with Inmarsat plc (LSE:ISAT), the leading provider of global mobile satellite services (MSS), involving the sale of Inmarsat's Energy Broadband business to RigNet and the appointment of RigNet to become a key distribution partner to deliver Inmarsat's Global Xpress ("GX") and L-band services to the energy sector worldwide.
RigNet has reached a definitive agreement to acquire Inmarsat's Energy Broadband business for $25.0 million in cash, adding to RigNet's technology solutions, customer base and geographic footprint. The business being acquired represents one of the largest pure play providers of remote communications to the oil and gas industry, making it a natural and strategic fit with RigNet's complementary business. Under the terms of the deal, Inmarsat will carve out and sell to RigNet all of its energy broadband assets, which include: microwave and WiMAX networks in the U.S. Gulf of Mexico serving drillers, producers and energy vessel owners; VSAT interests in Russia, the United Kingdom, U.S. and Canada; an M2M SCADA VSAT network in the continental U.S. serving the pipeline industry; a telecommunications systems integration business operating worldwide; and a global L-band MSS retail energy business. The energy carve-out includes assets, employees, contracts and working capital.
In addition, RigNet has agreed, simultaneous with the closing of the acquisition, to become a key distributor of Inmarsat's GX satellite communications network services, which will enable RigNet to offer the next-generation satellite services to existing and new customers in the global energy sector. RigNet has agreed, under certain conditions, to a significant purchase of capacity from the high-throughput GX network during the four years after it becomes operational. RigNet expects to utilize GX and L-band services across its own business as well as that of the acquired Energy Broadband business.

Women, War & Peace is a five-part PBS television series challenging the conventional wisdom that war and peace are men's domain. The vast majority of today's conflicts are not fought by nation states and their armies, but rather by informal entities: gangs and warlords using small arms and improvised weapons. The series reveals how the post-Cold War proliferation of small arms has changed the landscape of war, with women becoming primary targets and suffering unprecedented casualties.

Staring into gaudy pink glass,
Face distorted,
wide eyes,
huge nose,
small chin,
giant forehead.
A laugh escapes thin lips
And spreads to the face in the next bauble,
Just as contorted and curious
As the first.
Hands bound in green cabled lights,
swearing whilst the end is eternally sought in the
bottom of the box which was packed
so carefully last year, pinecones
and paperchains making their escape.
She's seen better days, that angel,
Skirt twisted and dusty,
nicotine stained face and hands,
Her 1960's hairdo more birds nest than beehive....
But without her the tree would be naked
And it wouldn't be Christmas.
