I live in a retirement community and I have a garden around my house. Unfortunately, whenever I go outside to garden, I get bitten by some kind of gnat or mosquito. I can't see them, I just start itching right away and I know I've been bitten. I spoke to the grounds guy and he has no idea why we have so many biting insects around here. He wears long trousers all the time and isn't bothered and he keeps suggesting things I can do, instead of finding out why they are here and how they can get be gotten rid of. I was visiting my daughter's garden today and there were NO biting insects and I walked all around the garden with no problem and she lives about a mile from me. There has to be a reason why we have the problem here and nowhere else. We do have a low-lying area around a tree that floods when it rains heavily, but it drains as soon as the rain stops. I didn't know if that was enough time for bugs to breed? Any suggestions? |

blueheron, try here. |
There are sooo many biting critters out there! Ron, I used to live in an area where sand gnats were a torture. I'm thinking that blueheron might be plagued by what we called no see 'ums.....nearly invisible to the naked eye, but do they ever bite. They're a type of midge. There are also biting thrips but most people are aware of them flitting around their heads. Do you have a wetland, pond, marshy area, or poorly drained swale near you? The biting midges have a semi-aquatic life cycle. When these or other insects like them are bothersome, I'm afraid that it's up to each of us to find the personal protection that works best for us. One can't spray the environment to get rid of these things. There are lots of good insect repellents on the market. |
I think they are no-see-ums. There are poorly drained areas around here. Maybe that is the problem. |
We have no see 'ums here too, and I've always wondered if not more than one 'biter', or more than one population explosion per season. :) Sometimes they are an issue, other weeks not at all. But the problem mostly will happen if its going to in evening, when I'm trying to get that last bit of work done before I quit for the day, and they get into my hair, bite my head. Very painful, although it is immediate discomfort and no lasting effects, no swelling or residual itching, redness or anything like that. I really don't know what they are called, other than darned bug ;) This house is on a hill, no water features, although there is a year round small creek that runs steeply down a ravine across the street. |

This flexible design works on an adjustable friction ball head system centered in the palm of your hand. It is supported by an adjustable length metal arm that wraps securely over your arm providing a very steady handheld camera platform. No more arm fatigue. No big rig on your shoulder. Easy in, easy out of the system. The Dougmon supports your wrist and arm creating steady shots that can be high, low and in between. The Slingmon helps with DSLR shooting using the Dougmon.
The Dougmon was design by 30 year veteran cameraman Doug Monroe. Needing a better tool for hand held small cameras while shooting news, documentary, and many reality television shows, Doug perfected this invention after 10 years of prototypes. Rigorous field testing and help and advice from talented and very patient engineers, tailors, artists, and camera folk has resulted in this simple but perfect tool.

Here are TWO buttons from the Erie RR. These are authentic, railroad issued buttons documented in "Transportation Uniform Buttons, Vol. I Railroad" by Van Court. Both are the smaller (11/16") vest or sleeve size and both are backmarked SCOVILL MFG CO.
Both buttons have domed tops and strong raised lettering ERIE .
The brass button would have been found on a conductor's uniform. The nickel or nickel-plated (silver color) button would have been found on the uniform of an employee with a lower rank than conductor.
Both buttons have wire loop shanks securely soldered into the back.
Neither button has any damage, other than the usual light surface wear expected from service.
A nice addition to any collection of Pennsylvania or Northeast USA railway uniform items, especially buttons.

Sorry this item is currently sold out. Please use this discount coupon for an additional 5% off during checkout:
The Rossignol Sultan is one of their perennially most popular men''s boards. This is a directional board, an all mountain design, built for the entry level to intermediate snowboarder who wants a freeride board that''s both reliable and rugged. The Sultan''s core is 6420 cross-weave fiberglass on a vertically laminated wood core for ruggedness and a traditional ride that''s smooth and easy. The single sidecut gives control that''s easy to learn and consistent no matter where action is applied. The base is ready to go from the factory and designed to avoid frequent waxings. You can''t go wrong with the Sultan.
Here at The House talking about one of our best sellers, the Rossignol Sultan snowboard. Kind of like a lot of the Rossignols I have been mentioning here lately, you are looking at an entry level to intermediate all mountain snowboard. It has really solid construction. At the lower price point that this one is at, this one is really going to be one of your best bets for durability. Rossignol really just keeps their prices down by producing so many skis and snowboards worldwide. There stuff comes in at a really good value, even at full retail. But then we get a super hook on it and pass the savings on to you. What you are looking at is a directional all mountain snowboard, little bit longer nose and tail. Single radius sidecut. Mellow. Predictable. The sidewall construction is going to hold an edge really good on icy hard-packed terrain and hold up better if you are going through the park. The base on this one, you are going to be looking at an extruded silk screen base, or subliminated base. That is about a 3,000 grade P-Tex, so it is pretty fast, easy to maintain, easy to repair if something happens to it. Yeah. Anybody entry level to intermediate, if you are looking for a good cruiser, the Rossignol Sultan snowboard is a good one to check out.

NSW will change taxi laws to allow mobile apps
PUBLISHED: 08 Apr 2014 09:38:00 | UPDATED: 09 Apr 2014 07:42:11PUBLISHED: 08 Apr 2014 PRINT EDITION: 09 Apr 2014The NSW government said it was changing the law in order to encourage the creation and use of innovative new mobile phone taxi booking apps. Photo: James Brickwood

Transport Minister Gladys Berejiklian said amendments to passenger transport laws to be introduced in state Parliament later this year would explicitly mention and authorise use of mobile booking apps. Photo: Rob Homer
The NSW government will allow consumers to use mobile applications such as Uber, goCatch and ingogo to book taxis for the first time under proposed changes to the state's taxi laws.
The state government said it would also limit the surcharge on credit and debit card payments for taxis to 5 per cent, following a similar decision by the Victorian government last year, effectively halving the fee charged by incumbent Cabcharge and rivals.
State Transport Minister Gladys Berejiklian said changes to passenger transport laws to be introduced in state Parliament this year would remove the legal grey area which third-party booking apps have been operating under to date. "We have already seen how real-time information on mobile phone apps has completely changed the customer experience on other modes of public transport, and it is time to modernise this out-dated taxi-booking process," she said in a statement. "The reforms will safeguard customers by ensuring the apps meet the full range of customer service, privacy and safety standards that apply to existing booking services provided by taxi networks."
By removing restrictions on competing taxi networks in the legislation, the state government will effectively give the green light to the operations of goCatch, Uber and ingogo, provided drivers are licensed and taxi meters are used. The apps will risk losing their authorisation to operate in NSW if they fail to meet the regulations.
Incumbent taxi booking networks and payment operators like Cabcharge have lobbied against the third-party apps, claiming they are unsafe for passengers. "It's something that, clearly in principle we welcome, on the basis that whatever is implemented in terms of new legislation – and we've yet to see that detail – is applied equally to all members of the industry," said Taxi Council of NSW chief executive, Roy Wakelin-King.
Government wants to increase competition
But the state government is hoping the reforms will remove restrictions on the apps and encourage more taxi booking services and promote competition. "It's not going to create an extra burden on us – it's going to help our business, it will give us a lot more credibility on the public side," ingogo chief executive Hamish Petrie told The Australian Financial Review. "We're not just the crazy app we were two years ago – we're being validated by government."
He said the government should update regulations to incentivise taxi drivers to provide better customer service. GoCatch co-founder Andrew Campbell said it would be business as usual.
"Because our focus is safety, reliability and certainty, our operations are already run as if we are regulated," he said.
The reduction in surcharges will affect goCatch and Ingogo, which both currently charge in excess of 5 per cent in NSW for taxi rides booked through their apps. Both companies said they would begin reducing the surcharge in the coming weeks.
Cabcharge told the market the surcharge reduction would halve the $28 million in fees it collects annually in NSW.
Uber Sydney general manager David Rohrsheim welcomed the changes.
"We support anything that promotes and supports competition," he said.

The Grand River Film Festival (GRFF) was born in 2007, springing from the knowledge that the Region of Waterloo is home to many people who love films, be they large-audience movies, indies, documentaries, shorts or experimental. The region also plays host to filmmakers who create their works using its streets and countrysides for their settings, approaching 150 productions and still growing. Joining them are the growing number of people who are studying and learning the art and craft of filmmaking. The idea: bring these audiences together in a friendly environment to share and grow their enthusiasm for films. With seven festivals and counting, that idea has been and continues to be a solid success. Adding to that success are the audiences from beyond the region: GRFF draws participants from far and wide!
Though not a long time, the past years have been busy ones for GRFF:
- Topping the list are seven successful festivals; learning how to organize and promote and run a festival, exceeding the expectations of participants which includes providing emerging and established local filmmakers with a venue for artistic presentation, networking, collaboration and peer feedback.
- Attracting, training and deploying a host of dedicated long-term volunteers, the backbone of every function.
- Delivering the annual SHORT Shorts competition, a forum for recognition, awards and the opportunity to have one's film screened in a festival setting. Past winners have gone on to earn awards at other top film festivals throughout North America.
- With its partners, launching the outreach series cin-E-merge in 2013, already considered a solid success by all involved. Cin-E-merge is GRFF's educational outreach program, which links Waterloo Region's student population to the many disciplines of tri-city film and video industry professionals. Now going into its second year, cin-E-merge promises to offer another extraordinary opportunity for students, alumni, and community cinephiles alike to screen independent projects, learn from fascinating presentations, and network with leading local industry members.
GRFF's success is shared with:
- Strong regional partnerships with such organizations as THEMUSEUM, IDEA | EXCHANGE, The Fashion History Museum and Wilfrid Laurier University's Film Studies program
- Fantastic corporate sponsors: 45% of GRFF's 2013 operating budget was provided by generous sponsorships
- Wonderful annual support from our founding partner the City of Cambridge
Which brings us to now:
The plans for GRFF 2014 are well underway. There will be some pleasant surprises along with the excellence of events that participants have come to love and expect. But to steal a line from Mr. Shakespeare, 'what's past is prologue'. GRFF is still growing, experimenting and innovating as is, indeed, the whole world of film around us. And GRFF is a part of this 'community'. It will continue to strive to create the environment in the Waterloo Region where filmgoers, filmmakers, supporters, partners and media can come together to celebrate and experience the magic of films. We invite you to join us on the journey!

text: you asked... Q&A: Heartburn during pregnancy? Practically from the day I got pregnant I've been suffering from awful heartburn. How can I deal? Want to participate? Log in to share your thoughts Re: Practically from the day I got pregnant I've been suffering from awful heartburn. How can I deal? Dealing with heartburn during pregnancy? Though morning sickness seems to get all the hype, many women find heartburn just as unpleasant a pregnancy symptom. In early pregnancy, heartburn is caused by the hormone progesterone, which relaxes the uterine muscles to fit your growing baby. Unfortunately, this hormone also relaxes the valve between the esophagus and stomach, allowing acid to bubble up from your gut and burn your esophageal lining. In the final months of pregnancy, the baby squashes your digestive organs and causes the same result.Reduce the risk and severity of heartburn by avoiding triggers like chocolate, coffee, tea, citrus, tomato sauces, spicy stuff and fried foods. It also helps to sleep with your head slightly elevated, and to consume minimal fluids with meals (just be sure to drink plenty of water an hour before and an hour after meals so you don't get dehydrated). Unfortunately, no matter what you do, you'll probably still feel the burn sometimes. Talk to your OB about what meds you can safely take for relief (she will probably recommend an antacid like Tums, or even something stronger for especially severe pain). Dara Pettinelli Q&A: Heartburn during pregnancy? I've been eating St. Claires tummy Soothers. They are a chewable, natural remedy for nausea, indigestion, gas, etc.... They aren't great tasting but they do work. They have an herbal type taste. I purchased them at the health food store. (Lassen's) Whatshername | Q&A: Heartburn during pregnancy? I've been taking Zantax for some major heartburn at night. I was told it was ok... Azianbabe1128 | Q&A: Heartburn during pregnancy? anything OTC that is a catagory B is safe to take (the phamacist can tell you)- Prilosec is a catagory C, however. I had to take a Rx heartburn pill on a daily basis before I was pregnant and what I am allowed to take now is not as strong. I suffer from heartburn ALL DAY LONG even with 2 Rx pills and way too many tums. The acid then builds up that I often vomit in the evenings. It's a "catch 22". Your suppose to eat several small meals thoughout the day but most foods make the heatburn worse, inlcuding ginger which will heel with the nausea! It will all be worth it in the end though. vanhornandstahl | heartburn-during-pregnancy Hi, I'm 11weeks pregnant and having difficulties swallowing my saliva since in week7. It just gets stuck in my mouth , dunno wat 2 do about it. But my morning sickness has stopped last week. Pls help advice . Salsss | Q&A: Heartburn during pregnancy? I've always had acid reflux but I was always able to control it based on what I ate. I knew what foods triggered it. Now that I'm pregnant it seems like EVERYTHING triggers it. I use tums which I was told are a also good source of calcium. The tums help a little but after awhile the burning comes back. I've noticed that drinking whole milk (maybe because it is so thick) and even ice cream helps to sooth my heartburn. I try to drink/eat it closer to bed time so that I don't have heartburn as bad while I am sleeping/ laying down. Courtneymsnyder | Want to participate? Log in to share your thoughts

I am moving in to a smallish split-entry home with no basement storage space. There is however a nice dry 2 car garage (I only have 1 car and no need for a woodshop) and some attic storage.
how do you all handle storage at under 2000 SF? Any suggestions for what stores better in different "home climates"? I'm thinking specifically about Christmas/seasonal decorations, Inherited photo albums and other crap I will likely purge later, My son's action figures, trains etc. for future grandkids or Ebay someday, books. TIA |
Follow-Up Postings:
I have most of that kind of stuff in my attic, but it is far from the best place. I've noticed that a lot of my Christmas ornaments are crazing from the heat. I wouldn't put pictures in the attic at all. Can you find anywhere in the house for those? Action figures (dh still has his GI Joe) are in the attic, along with legos and waffle blocks. I haven't looked at them in years though so don't know how they are holding up. I can't stand stuff under my bed or stuffed in closets. They are just spider breeding grounds here. |

I have heard it is not a good idea to store Christmas things in the attic because of the heat. Same for photos.I would say garage. I do store my Christmas things under the bed in vintage suitcases. Hoping the kitties eat the spiders. LOL |
- Posted by desertsteph (My Page) on Sat, Jul 7, 12 at 0:29
where are you? what's the climate? Neither of those would be much good in AZ. That's why I wanted the extra rooms/closets here. |
Thanks all. I am in WV, we are in the middle of a heat wave right now and that attic is hot hot hot! Rarely hits 100F in the summer, a heat wave for us is high 90s. Winters definitely freeze. No scary insects to speak of. I did notice when I cleaned my parents' attic that the cardboard boxes were brittle. So probably nothing paper in the attic. Hard plastic might fare OK. |
I am in the North East. No problem storing Christmas Decorations, suitcases, old toys in the attic. In the garage we store tools, shovels, the gargage cans, plastics etc. |
- Posted by shades_of_idaho (My Page) on Mon, Jul 9, 12 at 0:11
And for us on the other end of extreme. We have to store paint and weed spray in the hall closet because it would freeze in the winter and be ruined. I am NOT a fan of this at all. I move the weed spray in at the last minute of the cold season hitting us and back out again as soon as we are past the hard freezes. I built shelves for this stuff into the closet and put trays/dish pans, under the paint and spray. |
I would not trust the plastic either for valuables. If you do not want something ruined, then it has to be in climate controlled environment. Moisture and excessive dryness is another issue besides insects and heat. Under the bed type plastic containers on wheels really are nice for things you need to get to like seasonal items or clothing. We downsized, and we are still purging! If you have to repair A/C or anything in your attic and it is full of stuff, you will not enjoy bringing it all down and moving it around. If it is something you need out of sight for a long time, chances are you do not need to store it in the first place. We are realizing we brought too much stuff with us for our downsized move. I always say to myself 'what was I thinking when I packed'? It is like somehow I thought there would be no more stores to shop in??? Or I would NEVER find good, cute, things I like type stuff EVER again? LOL I am getting over it! |
We don't have an attic, a basement or a garage. But we do have a lot of interior closets, a big carport closet, a shed, and a barn/workshop with an attic. Rakes, shovels, trimmers, etc., small mower, garbage can, potting supplies are all in the partially-open shed (looks sort of like a changing room at a lake). DH's tools, saws, spare furniture, paint, stains, leftovers from an antique booth are in the barn/worekshop. Most small items are in plastic tubs or cardboard boxes. Christmas ornaments are in plastic tubs in the attic of the barn, and haven't suffered (we're in Alabama where it regularly hits 100 degrees in the summer). The carport closet holds automotive stuff, more of DH's tools, coolers, patio furniture cushions. |

Hey, Jennydotz! I grew up in WV, and we stored lots of stuff in the attic. (boy do i miss those "heat waves" now that i'm in the south!) THe basement, however, was the primary storage spot for anything of importance. (We had a carport, so no garage storage) In the attic, Mom kept extra boxes for wrapping Christmas gifts, exterior Christmas decorations, and old dishes, mainly. I'd avoid storing anything I liked or that had value in the attic. We use ours now as a last resort. It gets quite hot and humid where we live, and most things would be ruined rather quickly. You might opt for plastic bins over cardboard to keep the bugs at bay. Around here, cardboard baits in the roaches. YUCK. Things I never put in the attic: fabric items, books, anything important to me, paper items Oh, for a basement!!! |
I am surprised no one has mentioned all those climate controlled 'self-storage' businesses that have popped up in the landscape of every town in the last dozen years. They are everywhere, and consist of storage spaces large enough to contain a household worth, or closet size... just for those without garages/basements/attics! For things we need/want to keep, they can serve a purpose until we get around to sorting, cleaning out, etc. I used one when moving, as a holding unit, so as not to overwhelm this little house while deciding what and where for my stuff. It, the cost, was worth saving my sanity. As an aside, in many ways, the proliferation of these new businesses are a testament to our clutter collecting society. NOT that our GW posters are clutter-bugs... |
kitykat, I didn't mention that because the question was about a smaller house. BUT, now that you have brought it up. We had our 'stuff' put into one of those climate controlled storage units in Virginia when we were selling our house, got all the clutter OUT, was easier to move after the house sold. We put things we didn't need way in the back, then after closing on the house, we were in an apartment and took only necessities. When we transferred to Florida, then we transferred the 'stuff' from one climate controlled storage unit to another one here in Florida. Then we were in an another apartment here (whole process took about a year). Then when we found our house, we took out of climate controlled storage into the house. When I was able to open our boxes, all was just as I packed them, I purposely didn't pack candles and items that would melt (in heat of truck on the drive down). The only problem we had was a few Christmas items recently purchased had the glue give out to some of the items on styrofoam balls. Everything was good, my silver plate was not that tarnished either, just one tray was dark gray. So, not much damage at all. But when you are living in a house and not moving the cost of the unit can run high, because we had a houseful of stuff, we paid over $200 per month. But, we looked for deals and got like 2 months free, and then deals came up for discounts, etc. That adds to the cost of mortgage, and other living expenses. Even after all that planning, I got here, not knowing what kind of house I would end up getting, and there just isn't the horizontal display space in this house that there was in my Virginia house. So, I have been purging ever since! And I have a different approach to displaying now. There are also smaller and fewer closets and no attic to speak of (too hot up there). Our garage is for DH, his space... In hindsight, I would not have stored as much, nor carried as much here. |
Thanks for all the ideas and things to consider. The house I'm leaving is a cheap duplex, and I used to have a tenant downstairs. He moved out about 6years ago and I left it empty for storage since I had no garage attic or basement in my unit. it is now completely full. I will have more living space at the new house, but I got spoiled with the storage at the old. My parents and Grandmother passed away in that time, and I have accumulated a lot of stuff! I did one layer of purging before I started moving and I'll do another as I unpack. |

We use both but more in the attic. Attic is hot and cold but dry. Photos and stuff with glues and adhesives and paints in the basement. Everything else in the attic. |

text: I've often thought that if I did a month or 2 of a liquid diet that it would kick start some weight loss. My issues are more around mindless eating than emotional eating. I've often felt that if I could take a pill that would supply all my nutritional needs that I could easily forgo eating. I've done the Master Cleanse and found it very easy to get into the mind set that all I am going to drink is the lemonade drink. The problem with that particular deal is that it is not really intended for weight loss, it doesn't supply you with any protein, fiber, minerals etc etc whereas a good meal replacement or liquid diet drink will. I've been thinking that doing this for a couple of months might break those mindless eating habits, re-establish my ability to feel hunger and get my stomach back down to a normal size. Then I could make a plan to re-introduce food gradually and learn to make better choices. Also I think losing a significant amount of weight would really motivate me to continue. I don't want to do an Oprah or anything like that, I think 2 months is about as much as I would want to do because being aware of what I am eating is really the goal here, not losing half my body weight in a few months. Any thoughts? BTW please don't flame me for this idea, I'd like some constructive feedback. I did get this idea from a hospital nutritionist who was telling me about a particular patient who lives off this one meal replacement, it has all he needs to live and it got me thinking that if this guy has been going on this stuff for months that it would be okay for me for a couple of months (he's not in the hospital related to anything nutritionally or that nutritionist would have said that she'd been trying to get him to eat and she didn't).

A man, Guest 1/7 (Jeffrey Scott Basham), is alone in a white room furnished with a mattress on the floor along one wall and a table with two chairs on the other. The room is under camera surveillance, and periodically men in lab coats and masks come in to test the man. Whenever he does the tasks too slowly, or thinks too much, he is punished. Other times he is shown different images and colors on the wall.
It's never quite clear why he is there, or why he is being tested, though the masked men behave as if Guest 1/7 is there by his own request for a treatment of some kind to be cured of something. As his punishment sometimes comes as a result of him remembering something (and we get images and scenes without dialogue from time to time to show us these memories or dreams), it seems that his internment is meant to erase certain things from his memory, or have him reveal something he doesn't know he remembers. But why?
Haaris Baig's Residual Imprint is as confusing as they come for a 32 minute short film, but it is fun to look at and at least I stayed engaged trying to figure out what was going on. Of course, I don't think I ever did figure out what was going on, or what it all means, so I didn't take much away from the film. Except confusion.
The overall visual aesthetic is very THX 1138, which I enjoyed, and most of the effects utilized worked perfectly (display overlays, for example). The film also looks really good in general, and cinematography is not an area I found lacking. On a technical basis, the film is sound and efficient in all ways.
It's just the damn narrative. Which, you know, this is obviously an experimental film to a certain extent, and at least this attempts to tell some sort of story, whether I understood it or not (I've seen experimental films that were far more incoherent, and far longer, on purpose). So I'm not really taking too much away from the film critically because I didn't follow it all the time. It's like this for its own reasons, I get that, and the "erasing memories" thread, particularly when those memories contained a woman, made me wonder if this was a bit of a take on Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind too. Or may a little Total Recall.
On a personal enjoyment level, though… it just wasn't for me. Again, I don't think it really does anything wrong by being what it is, but it's not fun, for me at least, to just be confused most of the time and then come out of it with no payoff somewhere. When it was over, it was just a feeling of "well, that happened…" with no other connection. I'm sure others will have different ideas and experiences with the film, but mine was hollow.
In the end, Residual Imprint was a confounding narrative experience, but it was well-done in every other aspect. I know someone out there will find a level of appreciation for it that I didn't, so kudos to you if you connect in that way. For me, while I stayed engaged to try and figure out what was going on, there was little connection to the film beyond the surface, which was disappointing.

Dear Mark,
I actually saw this film at a festival in Los Angeles and found it very compelling. I took away that Guest 1/7 was Muslim and that it took place in the future when Islam could very well be illegal. There were a lot of flashbacks that clearly spelled it out, but I could see how one could overlook it. The flashback with the sleeper cell crack down with the news reporter and when guest 1/7 is working on his model and then picks up the book that has a fake book jacket on it and it's the Qu'ran and then the alarm flashes contraband etc.
I am Middle-Eastern and I found the film to be a sincere and well thought out commentary on Islamophobia in the USA. It was actually quite obvious to me how many references to Islam there were in the film. Considering how relevant this issue is in our culture, I am pretty shocked that you found the film confusing. To each his own but I am pretty sure this was what the film was about.
Mark Bell on Wed, 5th Sep 2012 11:24 pm
Spoilers for those who haven't seen this yet.
That's very interesting. While I did catch the news report, I didn't connect that with the other flashbacks of his personal life (nor the techniques they were using on him, such as the tests and color-and-shapes video). Likewise, I noticed the book he was reading, and the updated firmware that suddenly flagged him for contraband after he had moved to the model… but I didn't know it was specifically the Qu'ran he was reading. So while I think your interpretation is very possible, it wasn't as readily apparent to me as it was to you; it seemed to me like they were trying to cure him of something, and it seemed they were more pleased with his progress the more indistinct his memories became. Having your perspective, perhaps they were trying to cure him of being Muslim, as it was illegal as you suggest? I can't say that I'm clearer on the premise now than I was, now I've got even more to think about, but I definitely find your interpretation compelling and hope others see the film and offer their takes too.

- 1/3 cup chopped fresh dill
- Accompaniment: sour cream
Parboil pierogies in a 6- to 8-quart pot of boiling salted water , uncovered, stirring occasionally, 1 minute less than package instructions indicate (pierogies will not be completely cooked). Transfer with a slotted spoon to a colander to drain. Pat dry.
Heat 1 tablespoon oil in a 12-inch heavy skillet over moderately high heat until hot but not smoking, then sauté half of pierogies, turning over once, until golden, about 4 minutes per batch. Transfer to a large platter and keep warm, loosely covered with foil. Add 1 tablespoon oil to skillet and sauté remaining pierogies in same manner, transferring to platter.
Cook bacon in same skillet over moderately high heat, stirring occasionally, until crisp and golden, 6 to 8 minutes, then transfer to paper towels to drain.
Pour off all but 1 tablespoon fat from skillet, then add remaining tablespoon oil and sauté onion over moderately high heat, stirring, until golden, about 8 minutes. Reduce heat to moderate, then stir in garlic, cabbage, water, and salt and cook, covered, stirring occasionally, until cabbage is tender, 5 to 7 minutes. Transfer to platter with pierogies and sprinkle with bacon and dill.

Miami, July 5, 2011
La Reina del Sur (The Queen of the South), the production distributed by Telemundo Internacional, premiered this Monday in Cyprus on channel Antenna in the 22:10 hours time slot.
La Reina del Sur, based on the book by Spanish writer and journalist Arturo Perez-Reverte, has been translated into more than 30 languages and has been published in more than 50 countries, while also reaching the number one spot among best-selling Spanish-language fiction books in the United States.
Several countries including Mexico, Costa Rica, Uruguay, Spain and the United States have surrendered to the charms of La Reina del Sur.
In the United States, the production's success was not only reflected on the small screen, but also on the Internet. Of the10 million "La Reina del Sur" followers, about 4 million followed the telenovela via Internet. The telenovela's website at Telemundo.com has been a major nexus for fans, who can enjoy extra content, including interviews and unique scenes.
In Spain, the telenovela remained one of the favorite fiction programs, registering an average share of up to 19.4% in primetime, competing with titles such as Hospital Central, Spartacus, The Mentalist and Comando Actualidad.
Teresa Mendoza is a young Mexican woman of humble origins, whose life takes a drastic turn and ends up becoming the queen of a world of narcotics trafficking. Her lover, an aircraft pilot for the Juarez cartel named El Güero Davila, is killed for betraying his organization, which forces Teresa to escape to Spain to save her life.
In Spain she falls in love with Santiago Lopez, a tobacco and hash smuggler who involves her in constant travels between Morocco and Spain. Teresa takes advantage of her ability in negotiating and establishes what will become the most powerful drug empire beyond the borders of the Iberian Peninsula.

"It's not molding artists, it's just giving them a little bit of guidance and direction without giving them a complete makeover," Armstrong said of why he's a fan of the show. And hey, if Armstrong's advice happens to include "more sneering and political commentary," we're all for it.
Now we're not sure which of our favorites musicians we're most excited to see hit the small screen singing competition circuit — Mariah Carey on American Idol, Britney Spears on The X Factor, or Billie on The Voice. It's getting competitive out there!

To my knowledge, Hawkins has never negotiated a labor agreement or been on strike as a worker. And this guy wants to represent workers? Don't be silly. If Hawkins expects to generate support among the state's unions, he won't do it by spouting horse crap to Westword. He'll do it by making his case among union leaders.
So far he hasn't been able to do that, and I doubt that he can.
Chuck Conner
Editor's note: Earlier this week, Jack Hawkins announced he was dropping his challenge to Colorado AFL-CIO president Bob Greene. Hawkins says his candidacy was causing too much dissension within Colorado's labor movement, and he didn't want to divide labor's ranks unnecessarily.
The Uncommon Cult
Alan Prendergast's August 14 article, "Hush-Hush Money," detailing much of the cult of Scientology's practices, was well-done. However, while he mentions that the Cult Awareness Network (CAN) has been driven into bankruptcy by the cult, he missed the most terrible aspect of that case. Specifically, if you call the CAN phone number in search of information on what to do if a loved one is in a cult, you get a Scientology operator. Of course, they won't tell you that up front. The judge who allowed CAN's assets, including its name and number, to be sold to the cult of Scientology has put families and vulnerable individuals at great risk. That is the terrible and surprising news. That the cult of Scientology would take advantage of unsuspecting victims is not.

Copping a Plea
Peter Rainer has to be a complete moron. I am tired of his crap, and I don't agree with his comments on Cop Land ("Bad Cop, Bad Cop," August 14). I felt it was an excellent movie, and I also felt Stallone did his best to make this movie into something that would have gone nowhere without him. Someone who has his finger up his ass has nothing better to do than to tear him down. It's time for you to get a new career, Rainer-boy.

Chew Do You Trust?
I complained earlier about Robin Chotzinoff's self-focus in her reviews. She appears to have overcome that distraction with "Matzo Luck," her August 14 review of the New York Deli News. Good work.
Jim Dumas
via the Internet
Never before have I encountered such a confounded group of neophytes for food critics, leading everyone to assume that Robin Chotzinoff or Kyle Wagner wrote the book on cuisine and restaurant service. The fact that one eats out all the time does not make one a food expert. Furthermore, the simple fact that one has been to a country of that particular food's origin doesn't make him/her an expert, either. All in all, from the looks of things, your writers seem most experienced in using a credit card.
Judging from Chotzinoff's July 17 "Mouth of the Border," with all the dirt spoken about Portugal, you obviously need some guidance. Bacalhau varies from house to house. Just because she didn't like it doesn't mean the food of Portugal is bad. It just means her tastes are still accustomed to the Macaroni Grill.
To properly critique a restaurant, you need someone who has experience running a restaurant, one who knows what a waitstaff is supposed to do, one who knows what foods should taste like. I guess writing about "diners and greasy spoons" is a start, but maybe try someplace else. Whether you know it or not, you have sheep reading this paper: They follow whatever you say. If you say it's bad, then they think it's bad. You can make or break a restaurant by writing about things you may not be too well-versed in. It's time for a real Cafe section.

I have a HP all in one with the flatbed scanner on it. I also have or had an epson flatbed scanner. However, they say it is not compatible with Vista. I have been trying and trying to download drivers and I just cannot get it to work. My question is... should I purchase a new scanner or just use the one on my printer. I love to print photos and do crafts. I also have a epson photo printer. thank you! Sharon |
Follow-Up Postings:
I had a visioneer scanner and it was not compatible with XP and there wasn't any way to upgrade it. They offered me a small token if I wanted to send the old one back and replace it with a new one. Maybe thats the case with yours. |

Today's Visit to DC's Family Treatment Court
Today, to celebrate National Drug Court Month, I had the honor of speaking at the 13th Recognition Ceremony for the District of Columbia Superior Court Family Treatment Court to recognize eleven Family Treatment Court participants moving to the next phase of their recovery. The DC Family Treatment Court is a 15-month court-supervised, voluntary, comprehensive substance abuse treatment program for mothers or female guardians whose children are the subject of a child neglect case. More than 150 women have successfully completed the program and reunited with their children.
Today I was inspired as I heard firsthand each woman's story of courage and perseverance. One graduate thanked the court for "teaching her how to live again." Another said "I'm really happy with the woman I've become—a good mother, a loving, kind, patient, trustworthy friend and sister…Now I know why I'm here." These women are living proof that we are not powerless over substance use disorders and that recovery is possible.
Drug courts, now entering their third decade in the United States, are a proven solution for halting the course of substance use disorders and remain a critical part of the Obama Administration's "Third Way" drug policy. There are now more than 2,600 drug courts across the nation, reaching 120,000 individuals annually. By promoting models like family drug courts, family-based treatment, and family-centered reentry programs, we can help families stay together and get better, together.
Again, congratulations to the DC Family Treatment Court honorees.

What is Rapid Response Depot?
I notice that I have this in my warranty but I can't find out any information about what it is exactly. Can anyone help? Thanks

You get a courier overnight (or 1-day) service that comes to your door and the machine is sent back overnight (again 1-day) when the repairs are finished at dell's repair shop. Basically it's instant turnaround.

Everquest 2. I think I may have a partial solution to stuttering.
View Single Post
Posts: n/a
Re: Everquest 2. I think I may have a partial solution to stuttering.
There is a difference between having issues with the game and low performance. I myself have ZERO technical issues with the game. I nolonger crash and I never had the stutter problem others had. Im not getting 60FPS and my FPS does drop when there are many NPC's or im in town but these are performance drops due to my settings being higher then recommened. If I wanted I could lower the settings and play with high FPS all the time, by why do that just so I can get high FPS in a town when I don't need High FPS? Nothing happens in a town and im there so rarely that its pointless.
Chopping up do to the game loading is not the same as stuttering, stuttering is the game locking up for acouple seconds for no apperent reason. This happens to people when there the only one on screen and just standing there, thats stuttering. Dips in performance are not, these are the game stressing your hardware.
BTW, Extreme Quality is for 512MB Cards. I play at 1600x1200 @ High Quality, just fine with acouple dips in FPS in towns (like I said earlier) but when in any other area, I can group and run around smooth as butter.

Manchester City have been handed a boost as Sergio Aguero has returned to training and could be fit enough to play in Sunday's Capital One Cup final, the Daily Telegraph has reported.
The Argentine has been out of action since being forced off with a hamstring problem in the win over Tottenham at the end of January, and Man City have struggled in his absence, scoring only three goals in their five games, failing to score against the likes of Chelsea, Norwich City and Barcelona.
With 26 goals in 25 games, Aguero is Man City's top scorer this season, and the Citizens hope that he can return to the team for the Wembley meeting with Sunderland after he came through training with the rest of the squad on Tuesday. Whether he starts the game on the pitch or on the bench will depend on how well he proves his fitness.
Manager Manuel Pellegrini is monitoring the situation closely, but should he be unable no name Aguero among his starting XI, Edin Dzeko and Alvaro Negredo are likely to be named as the strike partnership with fellow striker Stevan Jovetic an injury doubt.

Some new developments in the Manadel al-Jamad and Binyam Mohamed torture investigations.
Update On Two Torture Investigations |
By: emptywheel Wednesday July 13, 2011 7:30 am |
Whither Stephen Kappes? |
By: emptywheel Sunday July 3, 2011 6:45 am |
The investigation into Gul Rahman's death means there's a chance–teeny, presumably, but a chance nevertheless–that the investigation might move beyond the formerly-low level people implicated in the death (remember, both the guy who headed the Salt Pit and the station chief have gone onto bigger and better things at the CIA, so if they're targeted in any case, it would be a bigger deal than any other prosecution).
Look Forward, and Promote the Torturers |
By: emptywheel Wednesday February 9, 2011 8:46 am |
No wonder Obama has no problem pushing our Egyptian torturer, Omar Suleiman, to lead Egypt. It's completely consistent with our own practice of promoting our own torturers.
