Where do you get your skating music? Do you edit it yourself? Does your coach do it? Do you use a service? If you use someone else's services, how much does it normally cost? Does the fee vary by length, or etc.?
Yes, I'm also interested in where people get ideas for the music they use. I've only ever skated one competition, so I don't have a lot of experience with finding skating music. I did gymnastics so long ago that we simply picked a "already cut for gymnastics and used a million times" song off the coach's gymnastics mix tape.
Quite honestly, I put it out in the universe and wait to see what I come across. I know that sounds airy-fairy, but I find that if I just listen and keep an ear out, as it were, amazing stuff shows up. My coach has never given me a piece of music. My current freeskate music happened this way. I went to see a museum show about animation, and wanted to see more of an early animator whose work was featured in it. So I looked on YouTube, and one of the posts of his work had a really nice piece of music playing with it (the original was silent). I looked in the comments section to see what the piece was, and then went on iTunes. There were 200+ versions of the piece, and I listened to each one for at least a few seconds to find the one I liked the best and that would sound good over the PA. Then I bought the CD with the piece I liked, and cut the music to fit. Incidentally, I don't like using pieces right off iTunes because they sound too tinny and compressed to me, but then I am a music snob. Two other pieces I found through friends, who I told I was looking for music and gave them the parameters (approximate length etc.) The pieces are both ones that I never would have chosen for myself, but my friends knew what I liked and what I look like, so they chose stuff they thought would work for me. And it did. Another piece I chose after spending an afternoon at a record store and listening to CDs on the "play before you buy" stations. And I listened to a little bit of everything, even the gangsta rap CDs. Seriously, you never know where something usable will pop up. And the piece I ended up using was eight minutes long, and I had to edit it down to two-and-a-half. If the original artists ever heard it, they would cry. And another way I found a piece was that I was watching a mid-70s skating program on YouTube, and the music for that was by an artist I hadn't heard in a while. So I started looking on YouTube for stuff by him and other acts in the same genre/period, and came across an artist who had an album that I really liked in high school, but my copy was long gone. I listened to it again on YouTube, found a piece that I thought would work, and bought the CD and edited it. And it did work. Like I say, if you put it out in the universe, amazing things can happen......
May I suggest people check out musician/composer Philip Sheppard, I heart his music. Crystallised Beauty is how I discovered him (ITV UK used it to promo their Austen adaptations a few years back). I bought the Bobby Fischer soundtrack, and his soundtrack stuff should be on itunes. And if you scroll down his Soundcloud page, there are some free downloads (the down arrow). Happy listening.
I think you need to listen to a lot of music and have a wide range of tastes. If your only knowledge of music consists of commercial top 40 radio and the most commonly used pieces of skating music, that really limits what you use.
When in doubt, you could skate to Carmen, Swan Lake, or Phantom I tend to use songs I know from past experience- my first program was to Stuff Like That There, one of my favorite songs from my dance days. I also bowed to temptation and used Disney music, a lesser known song from Pocahontas. For my most recent freeskate, my coach also gave me a CD of songs he liked and I picked my favorite off of it. Then Mirai Nagasu used my music, so I looked like I was being a copier Before I stopped skating, I had cut music from the Zelda (Nintendo) Symphany CD that came with my husband's game purchase.
My first program was to selections from Pictures at an Exhibition because I thought it would be fun to do a mix of majestic and grotesque. (I also tried making a program to music from Pink Floyd's The Wall, but I never finished or competed with it.) The second was to a brass quintet version of St. James Infirmary because I liked the version that Grishuk & Platov had used in 1993, and I think Tatiana Malinina used the same version for her 1998 SP, but I couldn't find that one. So my version was a little more brassy. With trombone arms in the layback. Then the time limit for bronze freeskate was extended to 1:50 max. I was looking for new music and on a CD of cocktail music that I'd used for a play I was directing I found a piece that was 1:47, so that didn't require any cutting. Frenesi Twist: so I could dance the twist and generally have fun dancing it (the last time I competed with it, after I got comfortable with the choreography). Then I wanted to do an ocean-themed dramatic interp program. My coach suggested Aquatic Dances by Vangelis. It worked for the interp, so she suggested turning it into a freestyle program. My coach does all my music cutting now. Previously she had had a senior student of hers do it for $25. At my first club as an adult, one of the dads was available for music cutting.
This is the absolute ideal to me. When I can find music that doesn't require cutting, it is like a dream come true!

A local farmer brings garlic to the farmer's market to sell. I just wonder if it is too early to buy now and store it for two months to plant. Should I wait to buy later? I'm not sure if they will save the garlic for me. |
Follow-Up Postings:
No need to worry about garlic losing quality between now and mid-October. Keep it at room temp and it will be fine. There is a guy at our farmers market selling very very nice garlic for planting and eating. If I wasn't stocked up already, I'd be buying some. |
If I buy the seed garlic bulbs, should I store them in garage or basement? |

I agree that the Legacy 2.5GT should be thought of as an Impreza WRX (with a much nicer interior and a better ride, I might add) for a growing family. My family now includes a ten-month old, and I was highly impressed with the amount of space and legroom in the back seat, even when her child seat was clicked into the middle position. The Legacy also has a large trunk that's handy for all the stuff that comes along with growing families. Strangely, though, both my wife and I hit our heads on the trunk lid, which doesn't open very far initially; it does have a higher secondary detent, but I'm not sure why it doesn't just open that far from the get-go.
It's hard to care about the trunk lid, however, when you're behind the wheel of this frisky, nimble, turbocharged sedan. The gearbox is very much like that of the new Impreza WRX, which is to say, a bit too stiff and notchy for my liking. A guy at my church used to have a WRX, though, and he claims that the gearbox in his car eventually loosened up nicely after 25,000 miles or so. I'd like the Legacy's stick shift even more if it didn't have a push-button electronic parking brake. I'm sure Subaru chose this design in order to free up center-console space, particularly on automatic cars, but this setup just seems weird in a stick-shifted vehicle. This trend will almost certainly continue to spread, though, so I suppose I should get used to it.
Like some of my colleagues, I found it a bit strange that Subaru offers three engines in its new Legacy -- not that I'm complaining. The 3.6R Premium costs $2000 less than a 2.5GT Premium but gives up only 9 hp and 11 lb-ft of torque. The 3.6, however, doesn't offer a manual transmission, which is important to me (and to many Subaru owners, I suspect). Otherwise, fuel mileage is the same, the six-cylinder weighs only about 80 pounds more, and it runs on regular as opposed to premium fuel. My wife and I are considering the Legacy as her next car, but I think we'll lean toward the much less expensive ($21,690 base), normally aspirated 2.5i Premium with a manual gearbox. The problem with that setup, though, is that it gets far worse gas mileage, per EPA tests, than the base 2.5i with the CVT (23/31 CVT vs. 19/27 manual). I hate to say it, but that might be a significant enough fuel savings to convince me to spend the extra $1000 to get away from the stick.
Still, the 2.5GT, with its fun spirit and stick-shift-only spec, rightfully stands at the top of the new Legacy hierarchy.

Hi please HELP
I am going nuts trying to find the right mattress. At the store they all feel great but I noticed as time goes by people's complaints increase.
So I am looking for a king size bed that does not sink in, does not get hot like an oven, gives support yet is soft and heavenly. My husband and I are side sleepers and we are both fit. As for price then that's not an issue as long as it's comfortable. I have read decent reviews about the Hotel Collection Stearns & Foster "Distinction" Plush Mattress alsothe Aireloom super featherbed I heard is good but may sink in ????
Also the store recommended Sealy PurEmbrace Angelica Falls or the new Serta Perfect Day Windsor. I am lost! Also whats better Plush or firm?
Hello Yas. Usually, and generally speaking, a firm mattress will keep its shape better than a plush one. But regardless, upholstery wears...compresses from body weight. There's absolutely no getting around that. Some settling of the padding, were you sleep and sit, is to be expected with anything you buy. Some materials are more resilient than others. Latex is the most resilient. Memory foam is widely used in mattresses and is one of the least resilient. Memory foam also sleeps hot, while latex does not.
That heavenly feel you want is most likely to produce the deepest impressions. Buying a high end luxury mattress is like dating a high fashion model....it's gonna cost you. Both are very high maintanence. For the mattress, it'll require constant attention. You'll have to rotate the mattress much more frequently to keep the body impressions from getting too deep in any one spot. And just like that fashion model, a high end luxury mattress isn't purchased for its longevity...but for the luxury. You can expect to be looking for new one to hold you the way this one did when it was new...within a few years, at the outside.
In a coiled mattress, resiliency comes from the strength of the coil...the gauge and tempering of the steel, the number of turns, number of coils.
I can tell by your question, that you want it all. There is a way to get everything you want, but there isn't a single mattress out there that will do it.
The Heavenly feel that mattresses have, comes from deep inside and continues to the surface. These mattresses have a "depth of softness". These will also be the first to break down.
Start of with a basic model...either a low end Stearns & Foster or a middle grade Sealy Posturepedic, or (if money allows), an entry level latex mattress. Add to that a soft latex topper. Cover it with a plush mattress pad....and voila! Like marrying Talia Shire in "Rocky"....a wholesome girl from the neighborhood. Substitute contacts for the horned rim glasses, change the hair style....and you have a mattress that you'll look forward to come home to every night....one that will hold you comfortably for years and years....and with less mainatence. The latex topper will absorb a good deal of your weight, which will cause the mattress to work less. The latex topper won't wear out anytime soon and the bed will have everything you could ask for.

I am replacing the kitchen cabinets in a 1930's house. When we took the upper cabinets off, large chunks of plaster fell off from behind the cabinets. (I think they were already loosened up by the person who installed the previous kitchen in 1988.) Anyway, there are parts of the missing plaster that extend beyound the cabinets and I will reprit those with a basecoat and skim coat. But should I bother plastering the whole area behind the cabinets too? I was going to nail shims to the studs to build them out to be plumb with the plaster, so that the cabinets would have some support behind them.
Am I being crazy/lazy? Should I just take the trouble to plaster the entire wall again? |
Follow-Up Postings:
As long as the new cabinets are securely anchored and will be alignerd properly, I can see no reason to restore the plaster wall before installing them. |
I wouldn't plaster but a chunk of drywall might be a quick fix. |
If there are holes through the plaster a quick repair might be worthwhile, but a 'perfect' repair is not required. Just close up any actual holes. |
Air should not be able to pass freely into the stud space. That could increase the spread of fire. If the cabinets are not enough to seal off the space, patch the holes. |

right whale
right whale
Any of five species (genera Balaena, Eubalaena, and Caperea) of baleen whales (family Balaenidae) with a stout body and an enormous head. (The name refers to two species considered the right whales to hunt because of their value, slowness, and buoyancy after death.) The upper jaw is strongly arched, and the lower lip curves upward along the side, giving the lower jaw a scooplike form. There is no dorsal fin except in the pygmy right whale (Caperea marginata), a small, seldom-seen whale of the Southern Hemisphere. The bowhead whale (Balaena mysticetus), inhabiting Arctic and northern temperate waters, is black, with a white chin, throat, and sometimes underparts. It grows to about 65 ft (20 m). The northern right whale (E. glacialis) grows to 60 ft (18 m). Similar to the bowhead but with a smaller, less strongly arched head, it may also have a bonnet, a horny growth infested with parasites, on its snout. Both species have been protected since 1946.

In case you haven't noticed, current trends suggest that regular huff-and-puff "oh-look-at-me-I'm-soooo-healthy-with-my-Livestrong-bracelet" laps around the Central Park reservoir are for rubes.
The rest of us are getting creative with our runs. The Color Run is no exception.
Maybe you missed the paint-powder-filled Holi celebration back in April, or the Illuminite glow stick run over the weekend. The Color Run is the happy medium: at each kilometer during this highly uncompetitive 5K race, you're doused with a bucket-load of color.
The only rules: Wear white and have fun.
It goes down next month at Aviator Park, which, if you've been reading us closely, has been blowing up with awesome lately. It's where you did your light-up laps on Saturday and cracked some skulls, figuratively speaking, at a massive tomato fight.
Next on our wishlist: a Hindu-themed race in which you shoot paint-filled tomatoes at each other. Make it happen, Aviator.

MANGALORE: If you see a car with PY (Puducherry) registration running anywhere in the state, more often than not it is registered in the Union Territory to evade high taxes than anything else.
Consider this: while a Toyota Fortuner in the state costs approximately Rs 25.22 lakh on road, in Pondy it costs just Rs 21.5 lakh. The reason is that Pondicherry RTO charges a flat Rs 55,000 life time tax for vehicles above Rs 20 lakh as opposed to Rs 4.05 lakh in the state, which results in a net saving of Rs 3.5 lakh for the buyer.
For vehicles below Rs 20 lakh, the rate of tax is flat Rs 15,000 in Pondicherry. In the state, the life time taxation rate ranges from a 13% of the value of the vehicle (for vehicles below Rs 5 lakh) plus 11 per cent cess on the tax amount to 18% plus 11% cess on vehicles above Rs 20 lakh.
Moreover, to register a vehicle in Pondicherry one need not have a permanent Pondy address. The Registration Book will feature both temporary and permanent address of the vehicle owner. When contacted a MUV dealer at Pondicherry, he was willing to give his residential address as proof as temporary address to this correspondent. But anywhere in the state, vehicles cannot be registered unless the person's residential address is in the city where the vehicle is to be registered.
The savings are huge on vehicles priced above Rs 50 lakh and above as per the taxation rate given above. There are over 100 Pondicherry registration vehicles running on Mangalore roads. There are touts and agents here who do the registration job at Pondicherry for high end vehicles for a fee, which ranges from 25% to 35%.

I'm considering going to look at this dining room furniture. The person selling it says it was made in 1949 by Drexel. I've never seen the style of the upholstered chairs. Can anyone shed any information?
Thank you. |
Follow-Up Postings:
I don't know about the chairs, but the rest is accurately dated. I have the china cabinet in my dining room, and a version of the table (mine are paired with 1840's chippendale chairs). Now the chairs I see with the table (verses the totally upholstered one in the corner) are again, totally correct for the furniture date as well. If you want to be sure...turn the cabinet around. You'll see a stamp on the back from DH and probably on the underside of the table. These were very mass produced and sold to the military (back then they had taste). You see them quite often, so you're not buying anything rare, but that being said, they're lovely and timeless, and very nice quality. I have applied another layer of poly to the table top I have, but other than that a regular polishing is all the need. We never use a table cloth, and they polish up beautifully. I think they could be a little earlier in the 40's but it's hard to say. They're definately dated close to right though (they may have a receipt or something to get a specific date). I can date mine by when the housing was built up here in Alaska for the military, so I know that the cabinet (identical to yours) could date earlier. |
I agree that the china cabinet, table, and dining chairs are very likely to be ca. 1949. It is hard to be sure, because they're based on styles reproduced from almost two hundred years earlier that have been copied from at least the 1920s right up to the present, but they look like what everyone had in my childhood in the 1950s. The curved-back chair, on the other hand, does not look to me like it is part of this set at all. It could be a reproduction from the the 1940s, a bit earlier, or (and this seems most likely to me) somewhat later. A firm called the Victorian Furniture Company was making reproductions similar to it in the late 1960s. |
Yep the wood furniture is Duncan Phyfe from the '40s. I don't know about the chair. |
Whenever it was made it looks very cool! |
- Posted by jerseygirl_1 (My Page) on Tue, Dec 18, 07 at 12:14
Wow, what beautiful furniture! Looks to be in great condition. I would grab it quick before someone else finds it. |
- Posted by patricia43 (My Page) on Tue, Dec 18, 07 at 12:27
I grew up with this lovely furniture, save the chairs. These could have been from a Victorian suite and the chairs were tailored to blend with the Duncan Phyfe. I personally do not see a problem with combining them. I like combinations from different periods that work together. |
I agree with the above. I have a DH sideboard which looks similar--though in general I prefer the double pedestal to the single pedestal table, though as igloo said they are very common and should be easy to swap out later if you find it's too small. Same with the chairs. I bought a similar set recently and love mine. The mahogany just glows. |
- Posted by cooperbailey (My Page) on Tue, Dec 18, 07 at 15:36
The wooden chairs with the upholstered seats are Duncan Pyfe scroll back chairs with saber legs. At least that is what I have been told. I have 4 of them and am looking for more. The china cabinet is similar to mine although mine may be narrower. And I assume mine to be from the early 40s. I think your table is DP as well. I have never seen the rounded top chairs before. nice set. Sue |
- Posted by citytransplant (My Page) on Tue, Dec 18, 07 at 18:26
Wow! Thnaks to all for the info. I have the same china cabinet and will be soon moving to a new home. My future husband and I are both 65 years old and are trying to blend our furniture. (not an easy thing to do) He has a similar table that was his parents and I have the cabinet that my mother purchased used. The cabinet I have is a bit "shop worn" and I was seriously thinking about painting it and FH's chairs black. Now after reading this thread, I wonder if I am making a mistake and should go though all the hard work to reinstate it to it's former glory. |

Does the China cabinet have curved glass? If yes, it looks like one my aunt left to me when she passed away (she would be 97). I always thought my aunts house was the most beautiful place in the world. 1940s sounds about right. My daughter now has the china cabinet and bought a new table but won't part with the china cabinet. It's not terribly high quality but has a timeless quality that's very nice. I live in California and was shocked to see one in a hotel in Salem, MA. I also saw one (sans the curved glass) in a very trendy boutique store used to display items for sale. So it's a classic. The curved glass is just wonderful. Good luck. |
I have that little sideboard/cart,same as the last picture! Haven't seen it anywhere else before! Mine is Drexel also. Dates are accurate. They were given to me by my mom's friend who had no children to pass things on to. Also received a full size 4 poster bed, also from Drexel. I also have a small round table with 3 leaves and a corner cabinet with the rounded glass front that shappy refers to. Of course that style was the era my parents are from. It reminds me of my aunt's home as well. Warm memories. |
I typed a long reply (you guys were saved by a glitch!) a couple of days ago, and lost it. But this set is really nice and I am looking for similar vintage for a sideboard myself. So, what happened with it? Did you buy? Red |
I've loved hearing your memories. I'm still on the fence about buying. The seller can't find the 2 leaves and that might be a deal breaker for me. |
My parents had a Drexel dining set with the same table and chairs as in nan53's picture, but different sideboard and no matching china cabinet. I agree that they are a little older: my mother bought them from her brother-in-law-to-be in 1949 or 1950 in order to get his apartment during the postwar housing shortage. Since he had them from his first marriage, I would put their date around 1940. |
I'm still negotiating with the owner. He said he found a dealer who has 2 leaves that match. We'll see. He said he'll sell it to me for $700.00. Is that a fair price? |
Fair, Yes! If he can find the leaves too, and the chairs are comfortable enough for guests to linger over coffee and dessert, I would certainly want the set. It's very pretty. Red |

New evidence in hacking case
Comment on this storyLondon - A British lawyer representing victims of phone hacking by Rupert Murdoch's News International says a significant new email has just emerged in litigation.
David Sherborne told the High Court on Wednesday that the email had been found in March by a law firm representing News International, but had only just been passed to phone hacking victims' lawyers.
He described the document as a significant "instruction email in relation to a well-known individual victim's phone," and said it should have been disclosed earlier.
Sherborne told The Associated Press in a phone call that he couldn't elaborate as Judge Geoffrey Vos had barred attorneys from naming the email's sender, or subject, so as not to prejudice ongoing criminal investigations into hacking at Murdoch's publications.
News International declined comment. - Sapa-AP

Saturday, August 5, 2006 - Page updated at 12:00 AM Local candy factories offer fun, affordable tours — and free samples!Seattle Times staff reporter Hey, kids! Free candy! That's probably all youngsters need to know, but even adults will find candy- factory tours a tasty and inexpensive outing this summer (just don't go crazy in gift shops). Three local factories highlight different types of candy-making: hand-pulled hard candy at Woodinville's Elegant Gourmet, hand-dipped confections at Issaquah's Boehms Candies and bean-to-chocolate-bars at Fremont's Theo Chocolate. Best for elementary-school-age kids, tours offer an inside peek into the sweet process. Elegant Gourmet, Woodinville For the best overview of candy-making — and enough samples to sate the most enthusiastic sweet tooth — Elegant Gourmet's tour is tops. Depending on what's in production, visitors might observe workers baking cookies, molding chocolate or making candy canes. The company starts gearing up for its busy holiday season this month, so lots should be going on. Everyone must wear the hair nets provided, and when folks are allowed to get within a few feet of the production line, it becomes obvious why. Candy tours Elegant Gourmet: 15510 Woodinville-Redmond Road, Woodinville, 425-814-2500 or www.elegantgourmet.com/eg/tours.cfm. Forty-minute tours offered hourly 10 a.m.-4 p.m. Fridays and Saturdays. Free, but reservations required. The factory is located in a business park; look for candy canes marking the entrance. Boehms Candies: 255 N.E. Gilman Blvd., Issaquah, 425-392-6652 or www.boehmscandies.com. Thirty- to 40-minute tours run at 10:30 a.m. and 2:15 p.m. Monday, Tuesday, Thursday and Friday, plus 1 p.m. Saturday and Sunday through Sept. 3. (Note: Weekend tours don't show factory activity.) Children's group tours for ages 6 and up, lasting about 20 minutes, 1 and 1:30 p.m. Monday, Tuesday, Thursday and Friday. Free, but reservations required. (Hit a bathroom ahead of time, as there are no public facilities on-site.) There's a year-round, self-guided outdoor-window tour; for the most activity, visit between 10 a.m. and 3 p.m. weekdays. Theo Chocolate: 3400 Phinney Ave. N., Seattle (formerly the Redhook Brewery), 206-632-5100 or www.theochocolate.com. The nearly one-hour tours start at 1 and 3 p.m. daily. $5 a person for ages 6 and up (younger children are allowed but will likely be bored); children under 16 must be accompanied by an adult. Reservations recommended, especially on weekends. On a recent visit, our family (along with a Cub Scout group) watched the process of creating cherry-flavored suckers. In about 15 minutes, it went from hot goo on a cooling table to sticky dough yanked through a taffy puller to a thick candy log. The different stages help visitors appreciate the beauty in the smooth, shiny candy. Elegant Gourmet boasts that it's one of only three U.S. companies that still makes hand-pulled hard candy. The final stage was watching three workers pull long, narrow pieces off the candy log, twist them into striped swirls and jab them with a lollipop stick. Then they snipped enough small pieces for everyone on the tour to try the still-warm candy. (The guide warned kids not to bite into it, however, since the candy cools fast and hardens.) A full batch is enough for 600 suckers. The rewards continue as the guide stops to offer more samples of the company's sweet varied wares. Check out the gift shop's discount table for good deals (and still more cookie and candy samples). Boehms Candies, Issaquah Boehms' long-running tours mix a bit of local history and European culture into a traditional factory tour. With a fast pace and plenty of variety, it keeps kids entertained (on a recent tour, there was even a birthday-party group). Starting with a visit to late founder Julius Boehm's Swiss-style chalet apartment, the guide points out artwork and shares highlights of Boehm's interesting life (including an escape from the Nazis in his home country of Austria). Visitors don paper hats to walk through the small factory, where truffles and other candies are still hand-dipped. (Talk about goopy hands.) Another worker sends other candies through the enrober, a conveyor belt that coats candies from the bottom before running them under a chocolate waterfall. Tour members can sample small hunks of milk chocolate and dark chocolate, later tasting two types of confections. The official tour ends with a visit to the chapel, modeled on a 12th-century Swiss church and decorated with reproductions of Michelangelo's "Creation of Adam" and "La Piet�." But the real finish is in the large gift shop, where tour participants receive a discount coupon to use on everything from gift samplers to chocolate molded in the shape of golf clubs or a salmon. Theo Chocolate, Seattle In every detail, Theo Chocolate belongs in Fremont: The funky, exotic art on the candy wrappers; the organic, fair-trade cocoa beans; even the colorful scarves handed out for visitors to cover their hair (women end up looking like pioneers, men like pirates). Housed in the former Redhook Brewery site, Theo tours start in its lobby, where visitors can taste generous samples from its first line of chocolate bars, including dark chocolate with coconut and curry (for less adventurous types, there's milk chocolate with vanilla). There are even more samples along the tour, ending with a ganache-filled confection (in our case, a choice between mint and Earl Grey). "Every season, the flavors will change slightly," the guide said. In between munching, visitors learn about the process of making chocolate from cacao bean to bar. Theo is named after the Latin word for cacao, Theobroma, which means "food of the gods." It buys its organic, fair-trade beans from such countries as Madagascar, Venezuela, Panama and Ghana. From room to room, the guide explains how machines clean, roast, pulverize and mix the beans into chocolate. It's one of 19 roasters in the country, and one of the smallest, using all refurbished European equipment (some pieces date back to the 1930s). This would be a fun activity for teens; younger children are allowed but might be disappointed to discover the process is more mundane than what they saw in "Charlie and the Chocolate Factory." None of the machinery runs during the tour, so they have to use their imaginations. With the emphasis on dark chocolate and unusual flavors, kids may also be dismayed to find they don't like the candy, which is quite different from sweet milk chocolate.

Apache Tomcat invoker servlet used in conjunction with the default servlet reveals source code
tomcat-invoker-source-code (10376) | Low Risk |
Apache Tomcat could allow a remote attacker to obtain sensitive information, caused by improper validation of requests when the invoker servlet is used in conjunction with the default servlet. A remote attacker could send a specially-crafted URL request for a known JavaServer Pages (JSP) to bypass protection and obtain the source code of the requested JSP page. An attacker could then use this information to launch further attacks against the affected server.

POSTED: Friday, July 1, 2011 - 4:30pm
UPDATED: Monday, July 4, 2011 - 10:08am
Quinceañeras are a rite of passage for girls of Hispanic origin turning 15. But those living in foster care often don't have the opportunity to celebrate this special occasion. The Foster Parent Association has held a Quinceañera for the past eight years and they need your help to make the event happen.
"You feel like you're part of something bigger than yourself. It's a great feeling actually," said Marai Williams, who participated in last year'sQuinceañera.
Williams says she didn't want to go at first, but that all changed when she began attending choreography classes.
"Once I started joining in and went to the practices, I got along with all the people there," said Williams. "I was shy before but now I find it easier to open up to people."
Elizabeth Muller, with Child Protective Services, says the Quinceañera gives foster teens the chance to meet other kids in the same situation.
"This is an opportunity for them to see that they're not alone, to interact with children that are in the same situation, so it serves than just like a party," said Muller.
Foster Parent Association president and event organizer Maria Zaragoz says more than 40 teens, including 23 girls, will be taking part in the Quinceañera and they need sponsors for the girl's dresses.
"We usually spend like about $150 per kid and that's how much we're asking," said Zaragoza.
"They're able to do their hair. They get their makeup done. They get a chance to pretty dresses. All of that really helps the self-esteem," said Muller.
Williams hopes people in the community will help support the Quinceañera and give every teen in foster care the chance to experience what she did.
"Every child that's in this event would never have a chance to have a special night like this if it wasn't for those donations," said Williams. "So if anything, I would ask for them to be able to have the same night that I did."
The organization also needs a caterer for the Quinceañera, which will be held on August 5th at Grace Gardens. If you'd like to help out in any way contact Maria Zaragoza with the Foster Parent Association at 328-0808 or Ceci Navarrette with the Foster Parent Association at 204-2162.

Monday evening
The Census Bureau, taking note that the post-war baby-boomers begin to turn 60 in 2006, has assembled some trivia about the generation born between 1946 and 1964. (Thanks to Monika Konrad in our Washington Bureau for passing the numbers on.) Count this as social science or water-cooler material, depending on what you think of it. Here goes:
78.2 million
Estimated number of baby boomers, as of July 1, 2005.
Number of people turning 60 each day in 2006, according to projections. That amounts to 330 every hour.
James & Mary
The most popular baby names for boys and girls, respectively, in 1946. Today, the names Jacob and Emily lead the list; James ranks 17th among boys and Mary is 63rd among girls. (Source: Social Security Administration.)
Percentage of women baby boomers in 2005.
9.1 million
Estimated number of baby boomers in 2004 who were black.
Proportion of Alaska's population that was part of the baby boom generation, as of the last census. Baby boomers also comprised 30 percent or more of the population in New Hampshire, Vermont and Maine. In contrast, Utah (23 percent) was the only state where baby boomers constituted less than 25 percent.
Then and Now
141.4 million
Estimated U.S. population in 1946. Today, the nation's population stands at 297.7 million.
33% and 5%
The proportions of adults age 25 and older with at least a high school diploma and at least a bachelor's degree, respectively, in 1947. By 2004, the respective proportions had risen to 85 percent and 28 percent.
The Future
Average annual expenditures on health care in 2004 for people ages 45 to 54 — the age group that is the heart of the baby boom generation. When budgeting medical expenses, baby boomers should expect increased health-care spending as they age; for instance, those age 55 to 64 spent $3,262 and those 65 and over, $3,899. (Source: Bureau of Labor Statistics.)
57.8 million
Number of baby boomers living in 2030, according to projections; 54.9 percent would be female. That year, boomers would be between ages 66 and 84.
The number of workers for each Social Security beneficiary in 2031, when all baby boomers will be over age 65. Currently, there are 3.3 workers for each Social Security beneficiary. (Source: Social Security Administration.)
Number of continuing care retirement facilities in 2003. Many boomers could have parents in need of such facilities or may have to move into such a facility themselves in the future.
Staying Young and Fit
Number of fitness and recreation centers nationwide in 2003. These are good places to visit on a regular basis for boomers who are trying to become or stay physically fit.
Number of cosmetics, beauty supply and perfume stores in 2003. These stores carry numerous antiaging skin care products aimed at people in this age group.

Nama Sushi is named for its wide-ranging list of handmade sushi, but the restaurant's chefs also craft steamy dinnertime feasts featuring nutritious buckwheat noodles, crispy tempura vegetables, and teriyaki specialties. The team whips up seafood-filled udon soups, grills barbecue short ribs, deep-fries pork cutlets, and tosses chicken in spicy sauce. For diversified meals, they pile Japanese goodies onto combination dinners served with mixed tempura, miso salad, and rice.
Although Hamachi Restaurant and Lounge?s culinary team masterfully crafts common sushi such as Alaska rolls and California hand rolls, they don?t limit themselves to tradition. The chefs orchestrate more than 10 original rolls, harmonizing lobster and seaweed salad in the Harajuku and arranging scallop and spicy mayo into the Romeo and Juliet. In addition to rolling delicacies, they compose artful plates of deep-fried prawns with tempura sauce, and beef and chicken lightly coated in a special teriyaki sauce. After meals, diners can groove to tunes spun by live DJs each Thursday through Saturday night.
In the Tao Restaurant kitchen, chefs labor over stoves during the three-day process of crafting housemade noodles and broth for their authentic Japanese ramen dishes. Iron grills sizzle with the meats and seafood of Japanese teppanyaki and teriyaki entrees, and sushi chefs slice up colorful maki rolls, adorning them with flourishes of cucumber flowers, slivers of radish, and intricately sculpted dollops of wasabi. Servers bear plates out into the dining room, where sunlight pours in through towering windows onto sleek tabletops. Nearby, pots of bamboo shake gently as though they were caught in a ge
Kane Sushi's alphabetized specialty sushi menu stretches from A to T. Or, 420 to T, to be more precise. The 420 Roll contains avocado, tempura shrimp, masago, tuna, and unagi. At the other end of the alphabet, the Too Hot for Sheila roll holds extra spicy tuna and avocado inside, and hamachi outside. In between the two, a huge spread of creative sushi rolls offers something for every palate: crab meat and tempura shrimp with garlic (the Nuclear roll); tobiko, kaiwarei, and salmon (the Marcei roll); and a baked california roll with spicy scallops up top (the Mac and Cheese roll).
But chefs don't just work with raw food?they also prepare kitchen entrees. That means deep-fried chicken, whole-grilled squid and beef ribs, and teriyaki.
Japanese cuisine is as much a form of art as it is a delicacy, and the chefs at Little Madfish put their creative talents on display while crafting more than 50 unique sushi rolls. Bento-box lunch specials combine teriyaki meats with delectable sushi, and sushi party platters feed 3–8 people or one shark too lazy to gather its own seafood. Diners can complement their meals of teriyaki-slathered chicken or braised short ribs with sake and imported Japanese beers.
O Chamé's lunch and dinner menus blend traditional Japanese flavors with California cuisine's penchant for local produce, showcasing "everything that's right about 'fusion' cuisine," according to San Francisco Chronicle food critic Michael Bauer. Pass through O Chamé's entryway, where bamboo stalks and other foliage snuggle up to amorous walls, before sitting down to sample one of more than 20 appetizers in a golden-hued dining area decorated with Eastern-themed scenes. Rafts of fried tofu drift in a sea of fish broth and fresh hijiki seaweed (lunch only), and chefs dress fashion-forward seared yellowtail sashimi in braised-leek and horseradish-sauce garments. For the main course, cooks fill big bowls with steaming broth and udon noodles, crafting eight varieties of the "bracing elixir" Bauer calls one of San Francisco's finest. Patrons can slurp up such ingredients as grilled oysters or braised beef shoulder with spinach and takuan, a Japanese pickle. Desserts such as poached bosc pear with fresh blueberries cap off dinners with a dazzling mélange of fruits one wouldn't wear for a night on the town, unlike banana hats or pumpkin daisy dukes.

For the past three years that I've had fig trees, the squirrels have left my figs alone and concentrated on eating ALL of my apples and strawberries. But, I'm becoming concerned that they might learn that figs are also good to eat.
Does anyone have experience with figs and squirrels? Do they like them and eat them? I'd appreciate suggestions on how to deal with them. It seems like a losing battle. I don't have cats or dogs, so don't even suggest that. I've read about hanging pie tins etc., but I've also read that squirrels become accustomed to these. I'm also considering fox urine and also hot pepper spray for the fruits. I've never seen an animal scratch it's eyes out because they got pepper in them, but I have seen a lot of people warn of this happening. I'm not sure if it's real or imagined. Frankly, I'm on the verge of not really caring about poor little squirrel's nose and eyes, but I might be convinced otherwise. Suggestions appreciated.
Follow-Up Postings:
I have bunches of squirrels, they even tease my cat, they sneak up on her while she is asleep! They have never touched my figs. But I have a lot of hickory and oak trees that probably keep them satisfied. A friend of mine has a lot of problems with them eating his tomatoes but not his figs. |
Squirrels,love figs here in NJ. Of course they ate Peaches to when I had peaces. I have nets on the figs that I want for myself,and no nets on the trees I let them eat the fruits. |
- Posted by organic_mescalito Z7 VA (My Page) on Wed, May 18, 11 at 22:47
Between the squirrels and the birds, I can lose a lot of figs here in Virgina, even with cats hanging out around the tree. I often individually wrap figs with pieces of newspaper, and this definatly gives me more figs. It's time consuming, but I love my figs, so I do what I gotta do. I hear squirrel is tasty, but I'm not sure if I could kill and clean them. |

President Obama's skepticism over NRA's proposal to put armed security in schools ― when he and his friends already send their children to schools with armed guards ― is just the latest example of elitist hypocrisy. The NRA plans to Stand and Fight ― will you stand with us? Stay tuned as more videos will be released soon. http://www.nrastandandfight.com/

I'm with you. The government is full of Hypocrites.
If guns kill people, mine are defective.
As many of you already NY has the most strict gun laws in this corrupt and broke state and nation. Every 5 years gun permit owners has re-certify, 7 round mags. I feel like that marine I'm not registering nothing. I served this country and the nation and state wants to rob me of 2nd amendment right to bear arms. Cuomo is just as dumb as G... D.... daddy. He did all this for his own political gain and to undermine the white house. I have lost atleast 2 relatives to gun violence. I am still pro 2nd Amend, in NY Cuomo silly a.... wants everyone that has magazines that holds 10 rounds has to sell them to buyers out of state or turn them in to the police. Now lets asks ourselves the drug dealers and gang members, does anyone think they're going to rush to turn their 10 or 30 round magazines in to police officers. As a veteran we all need to take back our government because we vote in a..holes that does have the best interest of the people at heart. Now I am sempathetic for the 20 children and 6 adults in Newtown Conn, and that movie theatre, but these were all donw by fools that has access to the weapons that were used, and we have to suffer the bullcrap that our government put us through.
I wish someone could show me where I can find a good candidate to vote for. I called and written to State Sen. Kemp Hannon and spoke to his secretary today. I was respectful to her and she was nice to me. But that alone doesn't cut it. She told me that the senate had no choice, but didn't elaborate. She said I'll be happy with the bill cause the law abiding citizens won't be effected. I said to her just what is being banned effects me, cause I own it. I told her that the republicans could've stopped it's passage and didn't even put up a fight. To the few who did I'll forever be grateful, but to the others they can go straight to hell. The party is finished in NY and perhaps the rest of the nation as well. For the first time I'd like to see a 3rd party that doesn't have the image of a yellow chicken as their emblem like the republicans should have. NY's been flushed down the crapper and it's so-called leaders are an embarrassment.
If they really wanted to show their beliefs about guns they would not have armed guards with them 24/7. See they don't need to own guns because they can afford to have guards with guns, but the only security I can afford is an AR, ok dictator obama
This is what you get when a government no longer fears the people. When the guns are gone, tyranny will reign.
Arbitrary enforcement of the law is the mark of tyranny. Citizens will always fight against it.
So step up and join the NRA. I joined back around November 8th. I saw it coming. He has no reelection to concern him now, so he'll do whatever he wants in spite of the peoples opinion. Not to mention they are already trying to abolish amendment 22 for presidential term limits. I said the same thing about schools as the NRA has. Why not have an armed guard at each one? I mean, O**** sends his two daughters to school with SS. All these politicians have armed escorts. Do they deserve more than we the people? I think not. If you want to ban guns, then send the SS with your kids and nothing more than a billy club. He's gonna try and pull some dumb S.... but the states don't look real prone to accept it. Wyoming has shown the balls thus far, but I'd expect to see the southern states laugh at an executive order. I mean, dam we already have over 20,000 gun laws on the books. They obviously aren't working all that well.
