Big Buddha Cocktail Adventures: Buddha Bar
8/12 rue Boissy d'Anglas
75008 Paris
Tel: 33 1 53 05 90 00
It's time to address the big Buddha in the room. For a good part of the past decade the Buddha bar has barely bleeped my radar. I considered it a past its sell-by date hub for expense account-wielding wanna-be hipsters more interested in where they are drinking than what (with a bit of electro mood music in the background.) However, over the past couple of years, I began to suspect that just maybe the Buddha was going to have a renewal of cocktail cred. Cocktail acquaintances were mentioning the Buddha Bar, they showed up at the Bar Rouge at this year's Cocktails Spirit and I heard talk of talent behind the bar. I thought, maybe I should give this place another look.
So I dragged one of my besties, Wendy, along to try it. She's a girl with whom I've clinked many a glass and who deserves some cocktail cred of her own, having recently written the Seattle Cocktail Culture iPhone application and heading up the Seattle LUPEC chapter. She was with us ten years ago – probably the last time I had gone to the Buddha – when we were denied entry because someone in our party was in trainers. So, she seemed a good – albeit not totally convinced – person to go with.
Buddha belongs to the George V Eatertainment Group, along with other hyper-designed Paris venues like Barlotti, Barrio Latino and Bound. All of their ventures are bold, conceptual spaces that can only be kitted out like that with loads of cash. And, for me, that pays off with the Buddha. I am admittedly smitten with the decor, which many might consider a bit out-of-date in a been-there-done-that kind of way. My attraction has to do with the (hyperbolically) world's largest Buddha that literally fills the room. That Buddha is fantastically huge. I am both fascinated and frightened by the big Buddha.
We arrived on a Monday in August, an ordinarily quiet month for Paris, but the bar was bursting. Notwithstanding the heaving crowds, the cute, qipao-attired waitress seated and served us very quickly. My Martini was fine, but Wendy found her Last Word too tart. Nice job that the waitress came through the throngs to ask me if I wanted an olive or twist before placing the final order with the bar. The place was so busy I couldn't see the bar, bartenders or booze, and had nothing to observe but the menu. Amongst copious sake choices, the menu offers a couple of pages of 17+ E cocktails and my observations on each section are such:
Tiki: You don't see a lot of Paris bars doing a range of tiki, including some of the more convivial options like the group-intended (200 Euros!) 3 litre Tresor Secret du Temple.
Classics: I'm kind of perplexed by their choice of these four: Icebreaker (?), Pineapple Julep, Last Word, Pisco Sour.
Modern Classics: a mix of some sure-fire Stoli-based sellers, alongside a few more interesting and unusual choices, involving eucalyptus-infused shochu. There could be something interesting here.
World BB creations: various drinks, including one "by Marie Claire" which I don't really understand the reasoning behind.
Voyage in Asia: all involving either shochu, some form of sake or Japanese whisky. Makes sense given the venue.
Goody! three creations from cocktail and spirits notables, which could be considered more challenging than usual for Paris palettes with spicy chili infusions or bitter campari.
Shooters: Three choices. The standard tequila and vodka shots, as well as one diluted with a cordial. Meh.
So, in general it's a menu with both a few redeemable cocktails qualities as well as obvious profitable choices. I can't really knock a business for trying to make cash – you gotta bankroll those ginormous Buddhas somehow. Plus perhaps we would have stayed to explore the more interesting potentials, but it was so incredibly hot that I could hardly finish my first drink. And at those prices, with those massive crowds, I'd say a bit of aircon is in order.
So Buddha Bar: has-been or come-back? Anybody's guess. It will remain in limbo-land for me until I get back in to explore the bar action more seriously. And, given the crowds, I'm not sure that's going to happen anytime soon. So, got an opinion on the Buddha? Feel free to share. I've been getting mails from Buddha-curious readers who want to know.

While Shaper is still my can't-live-without hairspray, this one is a nice substitute. It holds all day, doesn't leave white flecks all over my dark hair, and can be combed through. My only gripe is its scent - very men's haircare, which can sometimes overpower the scent you're wearing - but other than that, it's a great addition to anyone's haircare arsenal.
Non comparable to any other hair spray on the market. Perfect for those who want a natural, yet durable hair style. Keeps my highlighted long hair in perfect shape, and yet you can comb it the next day, without any awful residue left, which is so common with other hair sprays out there. I'm using my 6th big can, and even bought the little one for travelling. I love it and it's definitely my HG hairspray! :)

As a Fox News commentator might put it, in a news organization, values matter. One day, business press readers are going to realize that.
It pays for Journal readers to review the history of the Regan case. For those who do not inhabit the dark and evil planet known as "Midtown," Regan is the Long Island single mom (battered, by her account, by men in her life) who willed herself to become one of the most successful publishers ever, first at Simon & Schuster, then at News Corp.'s HarperCollins, having been recruited personally by Murdoch in 1994. Her list of hits includes the Zone Diet, Jenna Jamison, Howard Stern, and more serious work, generating hundreds of millions of dollars in book sales, which is a lot in publishing.
(Anyone interested in the Regan/News Corp. story must read New York magazine's Vanessa Grigoriadis and Vanity Fair's Michael Wolff, two intrepid Frodos venturing into media Mordor.)
Was Regan a lightening rod? Yes. Erratic? Err, yes. Given to yelling, "I have the biggest cock in the building"? So we are told by Grigoriadis.
Still, in February 2006, according to the complaint, she and News Corp. director Tom Perkins, of Al Gore's new firm, Kleiner Perkins Caulfield & Byers, dined with Murdoch, who approved the idea of a Simpson book and suggested paying $1 million for it. Regan says Murdoch knew the book would be framed as a hypothetical confession. News Corp. officials have disputed that, but Murdoch has acknowledged approving the project.
A call from The Audit to Kleiner's Menlo Park, California, office wasn't returned.
Regan says she spoke frequently with Friedman, the Harper Collins CEO, who enthusiastically embraced the idea, even suggesting at a conference in Puerto Rico that the print run be increased.
Again, Friedman's support for the project doesn't appear to be in dispute. Regan cites a February 2007 Grigoriadis story in New York that said Friedman saw the project as a "gigantic mound of cash piled on her bottom line."
Jackson, the in-house lawyer, negotiated the deal, according to Regan. Fox Broadcasting produced an accompanying televised O.J. interview. Regan says she wanted to wait, believing it to be in "bad taste" (I know, I know) to air it during the holidays, but a top Fox broadcast executive, Mike Darnell, told her: "The big guy (e.g. Murdoch) wants it now," the complaint says.
So, this was not a rogue project.
The media storm broke with the leak of a clip from the Simpson interview, November 13, 2006.
Regan made an already bad situation worse three days later, when, during a Sirius radio show she hosted, she said she had decided to publish the Simpson book as a means of dealing with her own past abusive relationships, or something.
…because I wanted him, and the men who broke my heart and your hearts, to tell the truth, confess their sins," etc. etc.
Yes, it's stupid.
Okay, the nation is in uproar. Fox News personalities man the ramparts against the cultural degradation spewing from, um, News Corp.'s publishing arm. You'd need a doctorate from MediaBistro and would have to eat at Michael's every day for the rest of your life to figure out the internal politics of all this, but Bill O'Reilly, Greta Van Susteren, et al. join what quickly blossoms into a category five doo-doo storm. Jim Pinkerton, a regular conservative panelist on Fox, lobs this:
Even among her fellow publishers at - at - Harper, she's 'slimy,'
Ick! Watch out for that flying crap, Jane Friedman!
At some point, Fox News chief Roger Ailes, among others, called Murdoch at his Australian ranch to talk it all over, according to a Business Week interview with Murdoch last February. Regan blames Ailes for orchestrating the media takedown. She may be nuts, but is that such a stretch? Here's Bill O'Reilly saying as much, quoted by Regan from court papers in his own sex-harassment lawsuit:
I'll make her pay so dearly that she'll wish she never were born If you cross Fox News Channel it's not just me, it's (Fox president) Roger Ailes who will go after you Ailes operates behind the scenes, strategizes and makes things happen so that one day, bam!
In any event, daggers are thrust into Regan from media columns all over le New York. On November 18, the Post publishes an interview with a Regan ex-boyfriend who alleges Regan profited from marijuana smuggling and says she lied about being abused by him. Nice!

Wilson (9-6, 2.82) (Sports Network) - C.J. Wilson tries to bounce back from one of the worst starts in his career tonight when the Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim open a three-game set with the Kansas City Royals at Angel Stadium. Wilson was rocked by the Detroit Tigers to the tune of seven runs and eight hits in six innings on Wednesday. He also walked five batters and fell to 9-6 on the year, while raising his ERA to 2.82. "They got a couple of key hits with guys on base," Wilson said. "That's been a specialty of mine is avoiding that the last three months of the season. That was the shortcoming of the game tonight, for me." Wilson, who had the 11th-highest walks-per-nine-innings rate in baseball in his first two years as a starter, has walked three or more batters in 10 of his 20 starts, and his total for the season (56) ranks fourth in the AL. "Obviously, if I knew why my command was not 100 percent, then I would fix it," Wilson said. "But it's just changes. Sometimes it's little things. Sometimes you throw the ball right where you want it and there's a difference of opinion; sometimes you throw the ball a little bit off of where you want it and then with movement, it makes it hard to frame or whatever. There's a lot of different factors. But tonight, I was behind in the count on too many hitters, so that's just a bad trend in the major leagues." Wilson has faced the Royals 13 times (3 starts) and is 3-0 with a 2.34 ERA against them. Los Angeles enters this series on a high note after Albert Pujols homered and knocked in three runs to help lead the Angels past the Texas Rangers, 7-4, in the rubber match of a three-game series on Sunday at Angel Stadium. Bobby Wilson also went deep and finished with two RBI for the Angels, who now trail the Rangers by just five games in the AL West. Mike Trout added a pair of hits and a run scored in the victory. He has now scored a run in 14 straight games, setting an Angels franchise and American League rookie record. "The scoring record is great, but I'm just doing my job," said Trout. Dan Haren (7-8) made his return from the disabled list and allowed two runs on three hits and three walks through six innings to earn the win. He had been sidelined since July 3 with lower back stiffness. Kansas City, meanwhile, hits the road tonight after a 3-7 homestand that culminated with a 7-5 loss to Minnesota on Sunday at Kauffman Stadium. Billy Butler and Yuniesky Betancourt homered for Kansas City, while Alex Gordon and Lorenzo Cain added an RBI apiece. Jeremy Guthrie (0-1), who was acquired by the Royals on Friday from the Colorado Rockies, allowed five runs on four hits over five innings in his Royals debut. He struck out four and walked three. "I felt great out there. I felt strong," Guthrie said. "It'll be great to get back into a routine. It's been over a month really since I've been in a five- man rotation." Tonight, the Royals will rely on lefty Bruce Chen, who is 7-8 with a 5.57 ERA. Chen did not get a decision on Wednesday against Seattle, as he allowed four runs and seven hits in 5 1/3 frames of his team's 8-7 win. "You could tell after the first inning -- Bruce struck out the side -- that he was on his game today," Royals manager Ned Yost said. "It's too bad that Bruce didn't get the win, because he pitched well and deserved it." Chen is 1-1 in seven games (5 starts) against the Angels with a 3.23 ERA. The Angels took two of three from the Royals back in April and have nine of 12 in the series. 07/23 10:19:11 ET

The case represents an important test of how the court under Chief Justice John Roberts views the balance of power between the states and the national government.
It is also an opportunity for the court to clarify its vision of the scope of the Constitution's necessary and proper clause. The clause gives Congress the power "to make all laws which shall be necessary and proper for carrying into Execution ... powers vested by this Constitution in the government of the United States."
Section 4248's civil commitment procedure has no direct tie to the traditional source of congressional power: the regulation of interstate commerce under the commerce clause. So Solicitor General Kagan is arguing that it is supported through the Constitution's necessary and proper clause as a necessary feature of the federal criminal justice and penal system.
Mr. Dubois urged the justices to reject such an expansive view of the necessary and proper clause.
Justice Antonin Scalia was an enthusiastic ally for Dubois.
At one point he told the solicitor general: "This is a recipe for the federal government taking over everything."
Justice Scalia said the necessary and proper clause doesn't exist in the Constitution to authorize the federal government to do whatever is necessary and proper for the good of society. Rather, he said, the clause is designed to authorize federal action tied to an enumerated power of the national government.
Kagan replied that the federal civil commitment program was necessary and proper to the responsible administration of the federal criminal justice system. She said Congress was aware that sometimes states were unwilling to take charge of dangerous sexual offenders upon release from federal custody. If the federal government didn't act, these dangerous individuals might be freed, she said.

India fail to draw the series as England clinch the series 2-1
England won their Test series in India as they humiliated India on their own backyard and the conditions thatwere tailor made to suit the host players. England defied the Indian attack on the final day of the fourth and final test match as they lost just one wicket. Jonathan Trott and Ian Bell scored centuies adn debutant Joe Root remained unbeaten before the match was drawn.
Score: Aftr 151 ovr, England 336/4
Ian Bell scores ton off an Ashwin delivery. Bell will be personally very satisfied apart from the joy of winning the series.
Score: Aftr 139 ovr, England 310/4
It's tea time. At stumps Ian Bell is batting on 87 while Joe Root is on 7. Bell would like to complete his century before England declares.
Raj1 says, "Shame on you Team India!! Great work England!! You have done it yet again!". True, but really is it worth calling the Indian team 'Tema India'? Did they really play like a team?? Indians needs to do some serious rebuilding. Starting from the middle-order to the bowling department, everything is in shambles. Moreover, when a team is sinking, it is the Captain's responsibility to lift the sinking ship. Alastair Cook displayed the true spirit of a captain, Think India needs to learn lessons from England.
Score: Aftr 135 ovr, England 304/4
Ashwin dismisses Trott at 143. Trott while playing a shot on an Ashwin delivery flicks the ball towards the slips right into the hands of Virat Kohli. Joe Root walks in to bat along with Ian Bell.
Score: Aftr 130 ovr, England 287/3
Trott is going strong on 139 while Bell is lending good support at 75. This partnership has contributed to more than 200 runs so far.
Score: Aftr 120 ovr, England 265/3
Ian Bell is batting at 72 and Trott is on 120. For India it's Pragyan Ojha and Piyush Chawla doing bowling duties.
Score: Aftr 110 ovr, England 240/3
England are 240 for three in their second innings at lunch on the fifth day of the fourth and final cricket Test. Jonathan Trott is looking strong at 106 while Ian Bell is batting at 61.
Trott scores ton off Chawla delivery.
Ian Bell scores 50.
Score: Aftr 97 ovr, England 206/3
Both the English batsmen at stump are close to completing their fifty and hundred. Bell is on 47 while Trott is on 87. England lead by 210 runs with seven wickets remaining. Yes, England have almost won the series.
Score: Aftr 90 ovr, England 190/3
Trott is on 79 and Bell is on 38. Ojha and jadeja are yet to taste success with the ball today. If India has a bleak chance today then the bowlers need to pull their socks up.
Score: Aftr 79 ovr, England 161/3
Welcome to the final day of the series. England looks close on scripting history by winning the series against India after a gap of 28 years. For India to win, the bowlers need to pick quick wickets.At stumps Ian Bell is batting on 24 and Jonathan Trott is on 66. England lead by 165 runs with seven wickets remaining.

Color Story
So I decided to make one of my own. For me the inspiration is very 50's-retro-baby looking. I know this aqua/red color scheme is popular now and I couldn't resist doing something with it. My quilt is in the works and will be part of my soon to be opened etsy store. Watch for it. And for lots of giveaways beforehand. :)

Hi Amy, I just got back from my weekend away and I have to tell you that the color combo of aqua/red/white is all over the place. In fact, i picked up the cutest bathing suit for one of the girls... the main body was red/white polkadots and the binding and ruffles were aqua. i fell in love with the colors! I actually thought.. "hmmm. i think i'll find some fabric in those colors and make something."
i guess you're a step ahead of me!
Thank you so much for your comments - they make my day! I try to respond to as many as my 'mommy' time allows, but life sometimes gets in the way. Please know how much I appreciate each of them.

text: Touchstone: A Journal of Mere Christianity "Minor Keys to the Kingdom" first appeared in the September 2008 issue of Touchstone. Minor Keys to the KingdomChristopher Jackson on Downbeat Songs for the Downtrodden "Things have been really difficult lately" is the most frequent reason my parishioners give me for their absence from worship. Sometimes this means, "Because I work sixty hours a week so that I can afford to put my six-year-old on traveling soccer teams, which in turn saps my energy, I am so exhausted by Sunday that I cannot get out of bed." More often, it means illness, family disharmony, or financial problems. I always encourage them to come and receive God's gifts, promising that these will aid them in their troubles. Yet I understand their impulse. She'd Better Be Happy Consider, for example, a woman who has discovered her husband's sexual unfaithfulness. Going to church would require flashing fake smiles at the greeters, and exclaiming, "Oh, I'm great!" to everyone who asks, "How are you?" Who could blame her for avoiding the faces and questions that all say, "You had better act happy! Don't be a downer!"? Sadly, many American churches unwittingly encourage their members to pretend to have it all together and be perfectly content. Even churches that vocally reject the prosperity gospel implicitly confirm that heresy. A kind of health-and-wealth theology has infected many churches, promulgated not so much by preaching or catechism as by the manipulative "How-are-you's," backslapping, and vigorous handshaking before and after services. I suspect that those in the midst of difficulty avoid services not out of disdain for God's Word, but out of great respect for the command against dishonesty. They know how their fellow Christians expect people at church to speak and act, and they know that they would be lying. Unfortunately, this theology has crept into the liturgy as well. The recommendations of church-growth experts and the aesthetic desires of parishioners press churches in all places and all Western theological traditions to tout "worship experiences" that are positive, encouraging, and inspirational. Congregations readily assemble praise bands, but none form lament bands. My fellow Lutheran pastors are not immune to these American gods, which seduce and infiltrate churches. Many avoid good hymns because they are "Lutheran dirges," songs with melodies and subjects that are not upbeat. The "worship experience" such hymns provide remind us of realities we would rather forget. The practice of excluding hymns with somber texts and tunes in order to provide upbeat and positive "experiences" rejects both the goodness of our present age and the goodness of the coming one, with the result that those who are weary and beaten down must put on airs not only in the narthex but also in the nave. We would be truer to the truth, and better pastors and friends to our friends who are suffering if we gave them the classical liturgical music and hymnody, even the "dirges." All that is has been created good. Sadness, yearning, discontent, and even anger are all good things in their proper place as reactions to the sin, evil, and difficulty of our world and in our lives. We American Christians have forgotten this. While the eschaton is both now and not yet, churches overemphasize the now in our expectations for the lives of the faithful. Christians do indeed experience the Messianic feast today, but our current joys and victories are but crumbs that drop from the table we will enjoy fully upon the Lord's return. Yet we often expect the fullness of joy and the absence of sin in our fellow Christians now. Therefore, we not only undervalue suffering, but we also lose the great hope of the life of the world to come. We have forgotten that tears are the seed of joy (Psalm 126:5–6). We have exchanged hope for lies, making liars out of those who are world-weary and depriving them of hope. Balancing Dirges "Dirges" can help us balance the joy of Mount Zion and the weeping at the waters of Babylon. The tune and text of "Our Father, Who from Heaven Above" communicate both joyful confidence and plaintive yearning; "Christ Jesus Lay in Death's Strong Bands" contemplates both our captivity under sin and our reception of Christ's eternal sunshine in our hearts. "O Sacred Head, Now Wounded" discusses the joy that comes through death, our Lord's and our own. "The Clouds of Judgment Gather" commends sobriety and watchfulness as our final Judge approaches, but also reminds us that he brings mercy and the end of evil. "Let All Mortal Flesh Keep Silence" reminds us to stand with fear and trembling at the Lord's coming, but it also reminds us that he comes with blessing in his hand. Does any hymn communicate both the joy and sorrow of a Christian in this present age better than "O Come, O Come, Emmanuel"? At times, even America has produced such work. "What Wondrous Love Is This" discusses the Christian's sin and his present participation in the joyful songs of eternity. "I Wonder as I Wander" calls us "poor, ornery people" whose hope is in Christ, the "promise of the ages," who gave up the glories of heaven for our salvation. Will we ever stop the manipulative looks and questions Christians offer each other before and after worship? I am not sure. For my part, I encourage my flock to say, "It is good to see you," and "Good morning," rather than, "How are you?" However, if pastors rely upon classical liturgical music and hymnody, even or especially the "dirges," maybe those who hurt will find refuge among us. Christopher Jackson is Associate Pastor at Saint John's Lutheran Church, Missouri Synod, in Lexington, Kentucky. He and his wife Mary have three children.

Get AccessAbstract
Osteonecrosis of the jaw (ONJ) is a well-known devastating side effect of bisphosphonate therapy for cancer. Several ONJ cases of patients using oral bisphosphonates have been reported in the literature. The present study analyzed the clinical features, predisposing factors, and treatment outcome of 11 patients with oral bisphosphonates-related ONJ.
Introduction and hypothesis
Osteonecrosis of the jaw (ONJ) is a well-known side effect of parenteral bisphosphonates therapy. Although ONJ has been reported in patients using oral bisphosphonates, documentation of this entity is sparse. It was hypothesized that the clinical features, predisposing factors, and treatment outcome of this population are different from those of oncologic patients.
This retrospective bi-central study involved 98 ONJ patients, 13 of whom were treated with oral bisphosphonates. Two patients were excluded because of previous use of intravenous bisphosphonates. The profiles of 11 patients were analyzed.
The mean duration of alendronate use before developing ONJ was 4.1 years. ONJ was triggered by dental surgery in 9 patients and by ill-fitted dentures in 2. Heavy smokers were the most recalcitrant subjects. Among the nine patients with at least 6 months of follow-up, ONJ healed completely in three, partially in four, and not at all in two.
ONJ is a rare devastating side effect of oral bisphosphonates associated with patient morbidity and high financial burden. Clinicians must be aware of this entity and inform patients of the risks of dental surgery. The synergistic effect of smoking in the pathogenesis of ONJ should be further investigated.

Serving Up Responsibility?
Is drinking with your kids a good way to teach responsible drinking behavior?
Brought to you by Liberty Mutual's
The Responsibility Project
Parents are frequently encouraged to share more activities with their kids. But should drinking alcohol together be one of them?
"I was 14 the first time I got falling down drunk", Time Magazine reporter John Cloud admits in a recent article examining underage drinking. Back then, Cloud says, such antics were viewed as a "right of passage." Today, however, an increase in the number of young hard-core drinkers has heightened concern. So is it time for parents to take a different approach toward kids and alcohol?
"At first it sounds a little nutty," Cloud says, "but you might consider drinking with your kids."
Drinking with your kids at home, Cloud writes—which he cautions is not the same as buying them alcohol for a party—is "a good way to teach responsible drinking behavior."
The idea is to present alcohol not as an "alluring risk," but as part of ordinary family life.
Addiction expert and psychologist Stanton Peele says he started giving his daughter "a few sips" of alcohol as a child at family meals. The key, Peele says, is not to make "a big deal about it." When the girl turned 16, she was allowed to have a full glass of whatever the adults were drinking. "A second glass probably doesn't make sense," Peele explained, "but making hard-and-fast rules creates the sense that alcohol is some magical potion."
But for many families, "demystifying" alcohol by consuming it with their teenagers may produce a parenting hang-over. And there is additional concern that alcohol could hurt teens' developing brains.
Tell us what you think: Can parents teach responsibility by drinking with their kids?

Popular talk-show host Ellen DeGeneres brought out viral video sensation Psy onto her show on Tuesday (Sept.11) to teach Britney Spears his infamous 'Gangnam Style' dance.
During her chat with X Factor USA judges Spears and Simon Cowell about the new season of their Fox reality TV show, the comedic host invited K-pop sensation Psy to bust a few moves.
The South Korean rapper has been steadily rising to fame for the past month, ever since his 'Gangnam Style' video went viral on YouTube, and he later signed with Justin Bieber's manager Scooter Braun.
After the 34-year-old music sensation made his VMA debut last week dancing with host Kevin Hart, pop babe Britney Spears announced that she was a fan, tweeting,
''I am LOVING the video - so fun! Thinking that I should possibly learn the choreography. Anybody wanna teach me?''
Ellen soon made Spears' dream come true, after bringing out Psy on her show, who told both ladies (while teaching them the moves) to ''bounce like you are riding an invisible horse.''
Check out the hilarious clip of Psy teaching Britney and Ellen the moves below…

Sriracha from Scratch
February 09, 2013 Recipes
After growing a Thai Chili plant this last summer, I had hundreds of these extremely spicy peppers left over. I wanted to preserve them so I used my food dehydrator to dry them. You can also buy them already dried and very cheap at most grocery stores. Granted, it is probably much easier to just buy a bottle of Sriracha Sauce but I promise you that the "made from scratch" version is much better.

How to make the Perfect Prime Rib
December 27, 2012 Recipes
Prime rib is one of the most tender and flavorful cuts of steak if cooked properly. It is from the loin or back muscles of the cow and can officially include only the 6th through the 12th ribs. Therefore, the largest prime rib available is 7 ribs. The traditional rule of thumb is to have about one rib per person but in my experience, a 7 rib roast is enough for at least 10 people. This particular 7 rib roast weighed in at 18 lbs.
How to make Tabasco sauce
December 19, 2012 Recipes
The worlds most famous hot sauce can easily be made at home. It only takes 3 months to grow the peppers and 6 months to ferment them. Or... you can go buy a bottle for $5, but that's not nearly as much fun!

Climax of world's biggest sports tourney brings all nationalities together.
BOSTON — South Africa's World Cup 2010 has succeeded in gripping viewers around the globe with first rate soccer, dramatic goals and nail-biting finishes.
The World Cup comes to a dramatic close Sunday with the battle between between Spain and the Netherlands that promises to be an exciting match of contrasting styles, according to GlobalPost's sports expert, Mark Starr.
The Spanish team is the world's best exemplar of the "beautiful game" style of play of short, controlled passes and finesse. Representing a variety of different regional and ethnic groups, the play as a cohesive unit and their example has united Spain, which has a long history of bitter regional divisions, writes correspondent Graham Hunter who is with the team in South Africa.
Spain has never won the World Cup and some economists say victory would give the country's ailing economy a much-needed boost.
The Netherlands is ablaze in orange, as the country shows its support, according to Paul Ames who visited the town of Breda. The Dutch have never won the World Cup, although they came close twice in the 1970s. The Netherlands team developed their own style of "total football" that should make for a dramatic contest against Spain.
Surprisingly, support for the Netherlands reaches across the globe to Indonesia, a former Dutch colony. Most Indonesians have set aside negative feelings over the war fought to win independence from the Netherlands and are excitedly supporting the Dutch team, according to Sara Schonhardt in Jakarta.
South Africa was a controversial choice to host the games. Many critics said FIFA must be ready with an alternate host in case South Africa failed to adequately prepare for the world's largest sports tournament. But the games have proved to be a success, with many of the 450,000 visitors glowing about their time in South Africa, according to Nicolas Brulliard who has gone to Johannesburg, Cape Town, Durban and Rustenberg to cover matches.

South Africa constructed or remodeled 10 stadiums in order to host the World Cup and some critics charge that many of the stadiums will be white elephants that will never be able to support themselves financially, according to a dispatch from Maura O'Connor.
The World Cup is not necessarily all good for South Africa. Some criticize the government for spending an estimated 4 billion dollars to host the tournament while so many of its people remain in poverty.
Some warn that in the aftermath of the World Cup, poor South Africans may erupt in violence against the millions of immigrants from other African countries. South Africa experienced a vicious round of xenophobic riots in 2008 in which more than 13 people were killed. Experts warn such violence could happen again when the World Cup ends and poor black South Africans realize their lives are still bleak, according to Erin Conway-Smith.

A little literal on the "space opera" idea at first, but it looks damn shiny, don't you think? I was too busy drooling over all the CG to really pick up on much of the Japanese (aside from a black hole and preparing to launch a ship), but the Yamato looks better than ever.
I never really got to watch much of the original Starblazers stuff, but I'm definitely looking forward to the new project, which I'm guessing based on this footage is a movie or an OVA-- it looks a little too high-budget to be a TV season.
It does sound like they've included the original music, though! Any fans of the original able to shed any more light on the trailer?

Warning Signs
Warning Signs are the earliest observable clues that show the risk of suicide for an individual in the near-term (within minutes, hours or days.) Warning signs can be organized around the following phrase:
Ideation / thinking or talking about suicide
Substance Abuse / excessive or increased
Purposelessness / no reasons for living
Anxiety /agitation / insomnia (unable to sleep)
Trapped / feeling no way out
Hopelessness / nothing will ever change
Withdrawal from friends, family, society
Anger (uncontrolled)/ rage / seeking revenge
Recklessness/ risky acts / unthinking
Mood Changes (dramatic)
Warning signs can be grouped into categories. The first category requires immediate action:
Observable and strong signs of a suicidal crisis:
- Someone threatening to hurt or kill themselves
- Someone looking for the means (gun, pills, rope, etc.) to kill themselves
- Someone talking or writing about death, dying or suicide
Call the Maine Crisis Hotline at 1-888-568-1112 or 911 or seek other immediate help when you hear, say or see any of these behaviors. (Not in Maine? Call 1-800-273-8255) Do not leave the person alone.
Not an emergency, but a mental health assessment is needed:
Seek help by contacting a Mental Health Professional or call for a referral if you notice anyone exhibiting one or more of these behaviors:
- Hopelessness
- Rage, anger, seeking revenge
- Acting reckless/engaging in risky activities
- Feeling trapped (like there is no way out)
- Increasing alcohol or drug use
- Withdrawing from friends, family or society
- Anxiety, agitation, unable to sleep/sleeping all the time
- Dramatic changes in mood
- No reason for living; no sense of purpose in life
- Risk Factors (pdf*) - long standing conditions, stressful events or situations that may increase the likelihood of a suicide attempt or death.
- Protective Factors (pdf*) - the positive conditions, personal and social resources that promote resiliency and reduce the potential of suicide and other high-risk behaviors.

Chelsea most likley club to sign Zlatan Ibrahimovic according to player's agent
In recent weeks the Serie A top scorer has threatened to leave the San Siro feeling he had achieved everything possible with the club, and according to his agent, Fabio Parisi, Chelsea have the edge over rivals Real Madrid. "From the rumours I'm hearing and the news I have, I believe that Ibrahimovic will be the final brick to complete [Carlo] Ancelotti's Chelsea,' Parisi said. 'There are situations that make me say this.' It could be that the club negotiate a swap deal which would see Ibrahimovic arrive at Stamford Bridge while Ricardo Carvalho, and Deco plus a sum of cash would move the other way. Not the only club vying for Ibrahimovic's signature however, Chelsea face competition from big spenders Real Madrid. Reports in the Spanish and Italian media claim Moratti is due to meet with Florentino Perez next week to discuss a deal. With a growing threat that Inter could also lose Brazilian defender Maicon to the Spanish side, Moratti said: "As a fan I'd want them to stay, but as a president with a balance sheet to keep an eye on, I say that if they want to go, they can go. "It would be counterproductive to keep them. I'd give them both a 50 percent chance of staying at Inter." Inter's chief executive Ernesto Paolillo said last week that a fair price for Ibrahimovic would match the £80 million Real have bid to sign Cristiano Ronaldo from Manchester United. The asking price for Maicon is 40 million euros (£33.5 million), according to reports.

Michael Schumacher says his replacement Lewis Hamilton joins Mercedes at a time when they finally have "strong structure".
Hamilton officially joined Mercedes from his long-time McLaren home on January 1 and although has already written off his chances of challenging for the title in 2013, believes he can achieve longer-term success over the course of his three-year deal with the team.
Mercedes have won just a single race since creating their own works team three years ago and slipped off the pace as last season progressed.
But Schumacher, who has been replaced by Hamilton alongside Nico Rosberg, believes the team now have the infrastructure in place to manage multiple projects at the same time.
"In the first two years we definitely did not have the capability to fight on several fronts," the seven-times World Champion was quoted by The Sun as saying.
"If there were problems we had to take care of them so the development process was interrupted.
"Only now is there a structure that enables both. It's a strong structure for 2013 and beyond."
Schumacher added that the 2013 car and subsequent in-season development process will be the first to benefit from the improvements.
"The car we had last year was built under the old conditions," he said. "I'm talking about quantity, not quality. That has always been the reason why development stagnated."
Mercedes team chief Ross Brawn recently pointed to a revamp of the Brackley outfit's aerodynamic department during the course of 2012- which saw Mike Elliot join from Lotus and an upgrade to the team's wind tunnel - as the reason why the development of the W03 went askew.

Thoth 1.8.1 for Mac User Reviews
A newer version of Thoth is available.
This download is served from an external site
closeNOTICE: This link will open a connection to a third-party site. CNET cannot ensure the security of software that is hosted on external sites.
Sponsored Products
"Can't download or register"
Version: Thoth 126.96.36.199
Good news reader, but..
There is no longer a way to download or pay for this application.
"Best usenet reader!"
Version: Thoth 188.8.131.52
Thoth does everything a usenet reader should do and does it very well. The interface is easy to use and lots of great options. Has SSL.
No bad things, really.
The small charge for the software is well worth it! Thanks to the developer!
"Best usenet/binary client ever!"
Version: Thoth 1.8.5
Easy(ish) to use, extremely flexible, fast.
It appears the author will not be offering an Intel-native version; i.e., the stillborn Thoth 2.0.
"Great in every way!"
Version: Thoth 1.8.5
Very Maclike and a classic Mac App!
Nothing to criticize!
This is a great Mac App in every way!
"The least terrible of a poor bunch"
Version: Thoth 1.8.4
Relatively bug-free
Inadequate filtering, developer has attitude problems, outdated interface
No idea why v 1.84 is surfacing now. It's been around for a very long time. Years, I think. The developer is a well-known, whiney pissant who, on whim, enters and exits phases of refusing to respond to emails or offers to buy the software. This, despite frequent complaints that no one wants to buy! Be careful what you email to him or he might lock you out like Jerry Seinfeld's Soup Nazi.
The whole category of usenet client software for Mac is very poorly-served. (Maybe for Windows too!) Thoth might be considered the best of a pathetic bunch. It has an outdated interface which is, however, adequate if uninspiring.
Setting up Thoth is non-standard or, at least, non-intuitive although the on-screen notes are somewhat helpful. But setting up might take a while if you don't read those notes carefully.
Filtering is inadequate for today's usenet world. The newsgroups abound with morons and ********. To effectively deal with them, there needs to be more-sophisticated filters, perhaps a chaining option too. In the Windows world, experienced users seem to have no difficulty locking out specific morons. This is often not possible with Thoth because the morons are more-clever than Thoth is.
Re-ordering items in the Queued Transfers List window is non-standard. No undo of deletions is available.
"Mark cross-posted items as read" does not work as it should.
Thoth hides its various files obscurely. Syncing two Macs is difficult and time-consuming. Thoth needs to keep track of several things ? newsreader server details, personalities, groups to read, items requested to be downloaded, filters. It would be a big help if they were all stored together in a preferences file that can be easily found, amended, copied to another machine.
There are not a lot of usenet newsreaders for the Mac. Some people prefer others (like Hogwasher for example) but, for me, Thoth is the best of a poor bunch. I've tried Hogwasher and I don't like it at all. I just wish BC would bring Thoth into the 21st century (AKA OSX) with, say, version 2, a proper manual, a bright, attractive interface and preferences that are easier to manage. -
"still the best"
Version: Thoth 1.8.3
This review was originally posted on VersionTracker.com.
I've been using this reader for over ten years (it was YA-NewsWatcher) and it's better than ever. I've tried all the others and I always end up back with Thoth. I'll keep using it until it becomes extinct. It is a shame that it is no longer available for purchase. I hope the developer changes his mind about that some day. Thanks for the updates Brian. -
"Thank you so much for Thoth"
Version: Thoth 1.8.3
This review was originally posted on VersionTracker.com.
Thanks so much for Thoth 1.8.3. It is still the best Mac Newsreader. Should you ever decide to release Thoth 2.0, I would gladly buy it again. -
"Still The King Of NewsReaders But No SSL"
Version: Thoth 1.8.2
This review was originally posted on VersionTracker.com.
Thatis a feature I would love to see in Thoth! Unfortunately there are not enough users willing to pay more for Brian to develop it further. I certainly would having loved Thoth (and it's companion PTAH) from the inception of these great Apps. -
"More Thoth"
Version: Thoth 1.8.1
This review was originally posted on VersionTracker.com.
Have used Thoth since inception, and it is the best there is. I wouldn't want to travel the newsgroups without it, and am glad there's a update, downloaded just fine, hopefully a foretelling of ones to come... -
"Thanks loads"
Version: Thoth 1.8.1
This review was originally posted on VersionTracker.com.
Thanks for updating. I know that you dont get paid for this and I really appreciate it. If you ever come out with Thoth 2, I would gladly pay

Healthy & Fast: 20-Minute Spring Meals
by Toby Amidor in Healthy Recipes, May 17, 2010As a working mom of three kids, I can't remember the last time I wasn't in a rush. But I won't compromise my health or that of my family and always find simple ways to create fast and healthy meals. Here are some of my favorite spring meals that can be on the table in 20-minutes or less.
Option 1: Grilled Cheese
A quick and easy grilled cheese sandwich contains protein and calcium. Add a side green salad and a fresh fruit for dessert for some extra vitamins and minerals.
Option 2: Chicken Salad
Use leftover chicken or turkey to create a quick and healthy salad. In Ellie's recipe, speed things up by using pre-made croutons (either your own or packaged) and make the dressing the day before. Remember, salads are easy to modify based on which foods you've got laying around your kitchen.
Option 3: Egg Sandwich
I typically turn to eggs for a quick meal. My latest favorite is two easy over eggs (using non-stick cooking spray) stuffed in a whole wheat pita with a slice of pepper Jack cheese. For sides, sliced tomato and pickles.
Option 4: Baked Tilapia
When I'm in a rush, my go-to protein is fish like mahi-mahi and tilapia. A side of cooked broccoli (fresh or frozen) and a glass of skim milk complete the meal.
Option 5: Burgers
Cook up a few burgers and boil some corn for a complete meal in 20 minutes. A few tricks to keep in mind: make sure the ground turkey or chicken is completely thawed by placing it in the fridge the night before. You can also make the burgers ahead of time or make a double batch and freeze them.

As a high school teacher and the child of a drunk-driving parent (who, thankfully, didn't kill us or others), I have always promoted MADD and encouraged others to support your work.
Unfortunately, you, like many other organizations, then deviate from the focused, specific crusade you promised to lead. You aren't demanding prohibition to end drunk driving, so please refrain from denying senior citizens like me, and other adults, the responsible use of medical marijuana.
Live my pain and my frustration with expensive, ineffective, dangerous side-affects producing drugs, then judge.
What will you ban next? Prescribed pain medication that kids steal from their parents? Why alienate a percentage of your support base that may be larger than you think? Stick to what you do best.
I continually hear students brag and write about their ability to drink and drive. Most smokers I know are moderate drinkers (and yes, that includes the students). I'm not suggesting that I condone a minor's use of marijuana at all, especially when driving. (Rarely an issue, as they don't want to get caught.)
You are needed to keep fighting drunk driving. Please, as an English teacher, I beg of you:
do not become distracted yourself. Stay on topic.

Hockey refuses to commit to NDIS funding
PUBLISHED: 05 Aug 2012 13:58:02 | UPDATED: 07 Aug 2012 00:48:42PRINT EDITION: 05 Aug 2012
Opposition treasury spokesman Joe Hockey refuses to commit to funding the National Disability Insurance Scheme, saying the government itself hasn't fully backed the program.
The federal government has promised $1 billion towards the scheme, significantly less than the $3.9 billion recommended by the Productivity Commission.
While the opposition has promised bipartisan support for the NDIS, Mr Hockey refuses to be drawn into committing to the government's proposal, should the coalition take power.
"We've said we fully support the recommendations of the Productivity Commission. We have also said that we want to make sure that anything we promise is deliverable," Mr Hockey told Network Ten on Sunday.
"Now we will have to find money. There is no doubt about that. We will have to find money."
Opposition finance spokesman Andrew Robb has said the coalition will fund the scheme, if elected, but it will come at a cost.
But Mr Hockey won't commit, saying with their "massively underfunded" commitment of $1 billion, the Labor government wasn't even fully committed.

How Support Groups Help Obese People Lose Weight Video
How support groups help obese people lose weight
In 1995, Vyan Matson weighed 345 and a half pounds but joining a support group helped her loss more than 200 pounds.

As long as I came in every week and weighed in, they kept me motivated. They keep me wanting to stay on the program and the weight was coming off. And so, it was just the whole thing of being committed to the group.

Over the past 10 years, obesity has climbed 61 percent. One reason, America's sweet tooth. The average person now downs 34 teaspoons of sugar a day.

There are serious health consequences including heart disease, diabetes, stroke, high blood pressure, arthritis, even infertility. But research has shown that support groups could help.

The Obesity Research Center in New York City found that overweight people who went to Weight Watchers meetings shed an average of 10 and a half pounds after 26 weeks, much more than dieters who didn't go.

Support groups work because they keep you accountable to other people and if you don't wanna do one in person, you can actually do one online. The website nutrisessions.com has online weight loss support program and a half an hour counseling session with a coach is $39.

All I can say is just remember to take it 1 day at a time, 1 meal at a time, and find your group that can be there for support.

Full Review
When the iPhone was released, much was made of its internal battery and the inability to swap it out with a fresh one when needed. While Apple tried to douce the critics flames with some ritzy Silicon Valley bottled water with its assurance of long lasting battery life, many ignored the claims. To Apple's credit, for the most part, the iPhone holds up pretty well, especially when compared with other like phones. However, if you're on a long flight and are watching a lot of movies, don't expect to make a long phone call on the way to baggage claims. I know there has been times where I had a full day of calls, email, and minor web browsing and my battery was less than 20% at only six hours. An extra battery would have been nice to have laying around. That's where Mybat comes in.
Matt Burge, Product Developer, at Exchange Cellular, sent SvenOnTech a Mybat External Battery for iPhone and iPod for testing. Test we did. Our residents podcast lover, Elizabeth, would use her iPhone through out the day extensively giving it heavy use at night. Its at this time the iPhone was on its last breath and this is when the Mybat External Battery saved her night. Tethered to the Cupertino designed (made in China) phone, the Mybat kept podcasts a playing through the evening. When Elizabeth's own internal battery gave out, she would leave the Mybat connected to her iPhone and have a fully charged phone for the morning. She was loving it.
Through the months of heavy use, we found the battery to give the iPhone about 1.5 times more life. Meaning, we could charge the iPhone one-and-half times off a fully charged Mybat. A nearly dead iPhone would run an easy six hours and then get fully charged up from a 100% charged Mybat unit.
The only thing we found bad about the Mybat External Battery was just how long it took to recharge. With the only button on the unit displaying either green for a good charge or red for low (blinking red for pretty much dead), the Mybat External Battery would take nearly 12 hours to fully recharge and bring you back to the green light. Understandable since the only way to charge it is from you're existing iPhone or iPod cable connected to your Mac or PC. By doing this, you're limiting yourself to 5 volts of power. That's a trickle charge in essence. An AC wall-mount plug would be a nice thing to have for a quicker charge.
Without doubt, the Mybat External Battery for iPhone and iPod is a lifesaver for anyone in need to extend their iPhones battery beyond nominal use. If you're on a coast-to-coast flight, a Hollywood producer that talks too much, or someone who really does use their iPhone more like a computer than a phone, then this your ticket to a longer lasting iPhone.
