One of the comments below the engine stats post draw my attention to the Technical Delegate's Report from Malaysian GP that says this:
The Article 28.4a of the 2008 Formula One Sporting Regulations says this:
28.4 For the purposes of this Article and Article 28.6 only, an Event will be deemed to comprise P3, the qualifying practice session and the race.
a) Each driver may use no more than one engine for two consecutive Events in which his team competes. Other than under f) below, should a driver use a replacement engine before the end of the qualifying practice session he will drop ten places on the starting grid at that Event and an additional ten places each time a further engine is used.
Unless the driver fails to finish the race (see below) the engine fitted to the car at the end of the Event must remain in it until the end of the next Event. Any driver who failed to finish the race at the first of the two Events for reasons which the technical delegate accepts as being beyond the control of the team or driver, may start the second with a different engine without a penalty being incurred.
An engine will be deemed to have been used once the car's timing transponder has shown that it has left the pit lane.
This is the list of the drivers that did not finish Australian GP:
7. S. Bourdais – Toro Rosso + 3 laps
8. K. Raikkonen – Ferrari + 5 laps
9. R. Kubica – BMW Sauber + 10 laps
10. T. Glock – Toyota + 14 laps
11. T. Sato – Super Aguri + 27 laps
12. N. Piquet – Renault + 28 laps
13. F. Massa – Ferrari + 29 laps
14. D. Coulthard – Red Bull + 33 laps
15. J. Trulli – Toyota + 38 laps
16. A. Sutil – Force India + 49 laps
17. M. Webber – Red Bull + 57 laps
18. J. Button – Honda + 57 laps
19. A. Davidson – Super Aguri + 58 laps
20. S. Vettel – Toro Rosso + 58 laps
21. G. Fisichella – Force India + 58 laps
22. R. Barrichello – Honda – no time
How did the technical delegate came to conclusion that only Kimi Raikkonen, Felipe Massa, Robert Kubica, Nelson Piquet, Jarno Trulli and Timo Glock are in conformity with Article 28.4a of the 2008 Formula One Sporting Regulations ? How could for example Bourdais start the Malaysian GP with the same engine that he blew up in Melbourne ? I would appreciate some help here because I admit this did confuse me. The engine stats as I believed were correct are here (click). Ideas on this anyone ?

banana oil | |
—n | |
1. | a solution of cellulose nitrate in pentyl acetate or a similar solvent, which has a banana-like smell |
2. | a nontechnical name for pentyl acetate |
banana oil
Nonsense, exaggerated flattery, as in I should be on television? Cut out the banana oil! The precise analogy in this idiom is not clear, unless it is to the fact that banana oil, a paint solvent and artificial flavoring agent, has no relation to the fruit other than that it smells like it. Possibly it is a variation on snake oil, a term for quack medicine that was extended to mean nonsense. [1920s]

CAIRO - American Muslims have raised concerns about President Barack Obama's nominee to head the Federal Bureau of Investigation, saying the candidate has a mixed record about civil liberties.
"The FBI, like the nation, is at a crossroads, the Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR), said in a statement obtained by OnIslam.net.
Mr. (James) Comey's nomination to FBI director comes at a time when the president and Congress should be working together to ensure that our nation's law enforcement and counterterrorism programs uphold longstanding commitments to civil liberties.
FBI Spied on Muslims at Interfaith Events FBI Entraps Muslims into Terror Fragile FBI-Muslim Relation WorsensFBI Sued for Muslim Torture |
Comey, a Republican was nominated by Obama earlier this week to head the FBI.
If confirmed by the Senate, Comey will replace FBI director Robert Mueller, who will step down this fall.
Comey, 52, served as deputy US attorney general for former President George W. Bush. He had previously been the US attorney for the Southern District of New York.
"Comey's mixed record on civil liberties as a former senior Justice Department official under the George W. Bush administration raises a number of serious concerns that will need to be addressed during the confirmation process by the Senate Judiciary Committee, CAIR said.
Comey gained notoriety for refusing in 2004 to certify the legal aspects of National Security Agency domestic surveillance.
That refusal prompted senior White House officials, counsel Alberto Gonzales and chief of staff Andrew Card, to try to persuade attorney general John Ashcroft to sign the certification at hospital.
Comey later told the Senate Judiciary Committee at a 2007 hearing that the situation was "probably the most difficult night of my professional life."
After leaving the Justice Department in 2005, Comey was general counsel to aerospace giant Lockheed Martin until 2010.
Comey most recently joined Columbia University's law school as a senior research scholar after working for Bridgewater Associates, an investment fund, from 2010 to 2013.
The Muslim group urged the Senate to quiz the FBI nominee to make sure about his commitment to protecting civil liberties.
"In light of revelations that the FBI and NSA are gathering data from some of the nation's top Internet technology and social network service providers and collecting the phone records of millions of Americans, CAIR urges the Senate Judiciary Committee to question Mr. Comey on whether or not he is able to provide new leadership within the FBI that respects constitutional protections of privacy and the prohibition of unreasonable search and seizure.
Muslim Liberties
CAIR said that Comey, in his capacity as a deputy attorney general, approved some of Bush's most egregious and unconstitutional counterterrorism program abuses.
He oversaw and defended the indefinite detention of Jose Padilla -- an American citizen who was arrested inside the United States -- who was initially denied access to lawyers and detained in a military brig without charge or trial for three and a half years, it said.
"As the Obama administration revitalizes its own efforts to prosecute suspected terrorists, CAIR calls on the Senate to press Mr. Comey on whether or not he still defends the practice of indefinite detention.
The Muslim group said under Bush, Comey has approved CIA interrogation methods of suspects as waterboarding and sleep deprivation.
CAIR urges the Senate to clarify whether or not Mr. Comey believed such abusive interrogation practices are lawful and whether or not he would tolerate these cruelties under a future administration.
Relations between US Muslims and FBI have strained in the past years over the agency's tactic of sending informants into mosques.
In 2009, Muslim groups threatened to suspend all contacts with the FBI over sending informants into mosques.
US Muslims are particularly wary of the FBI's history of targeting members of their community.
"President Obama pledged during his May 23 speech on national security policy to 'guard against any encroachments on [American Muslim] civil liberties' as it 'is the ultimate rebuke to those who say we are at war with Islam', CAIR said.
"For the past 12 years, the FBI's engagement strategy with the American Muslim community has been tarnished by frequent reports of community harassment, profiling, intimidation, warrantless surveillance, use of ex-convicts as community spies, informant driven plots of entrapment, coercion to speak without legal representation, purposeful misapplication of terrorist watch lists -- including the extrajudicial exile of American citizens traveling abroad - inappropriate religious questioning at the US border and ports of entry, acts of wrongful detention, and lethal use of force.
"Looking toward the future in considering Mr. Comey's nomination, CAIR calls on Congress and the FBI to adopt stronger programs to counter violent extremism that support direct community outreach and engagement, and to implement law enforcement investigation methods that emphasize pursuing and preventing criminal actions, not religious beliefs."Since 9/11, Muslims, estimated between six to eight million, have become sensitized to an erosion of their civil rights, with a prevailing belief that America was stigmatizing their faith.

Kate Middleton and Prince William are to embark on an exciting jungle adventure later this year, when the Royals visit Malaysia as part of the Queen's Diamond Jubilee tour.
The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge are travelling to Malaysia, Singapore, the Solomon Islands and Tuvalu, in celebration of the Queen's 60th year on the throne.
The trip is just one of many being undertaken by members of the Royal Family, who are travelling around the world representing the monarch during this important celebration year.
And while on the Malaysian island of Borneo, Kate and Wills will trek through Sabah, which is home to some of the world's most exotic and rare animals, including the endangered Bornean orangutan.
They'll also get the chance to see the Asian elephant and the Sumatran rhinoceros during the trip, as well as 15,000 species of flowering plants and 420 species of birds.
Other details also emerged about the couple's trip, which begins on Tuesday September 11 and finishes on September 19.
Duchess Kate and Prince William will touch down in Singapore on the 11th, then move onto Malaysia on the 13th, stopping off in Kuala Lumpur and Sabah, Borneo, before arriving in the Solomon Islands on Sunday September 16.
Then on the last day of their trip, Wednesday September 19, Kate and William will move onto Tuvalu, which is the fourth smallest country in the world, where they'll enjoy an overnight stay in the country's only hotel, before heading back to the UK.
The couple are extremely excited about their upcoming trip, and back in June Kate revealed William had even been practicing his dance moves in anticipation of their visit to the Solomon Islands.
According to itv.com, the Prince said: "We're extremely excited. Both of us have never been anywhere near there," before a giggling Kate added: "William's been practising his dance moves."
After that admission we cannot wait to see the photos and videos from this upcoming Royal tour!

A man hobbles in on a cane, announces he's been coming here since the 1940s and takes a skeptical look around. The caricatures, photos and cutouts cramming the dark paneled walls have been cleaned up; the gorgeous bar has a freshly polished sheen; the red banquettes have been re-covered; the floor retiled; and the pressed-tin ceiling sports a new coat of paint. The old man's eyes light up. "It looks good!" He gets a friendly greeting at the host stand and the bonhomie continues throughout the romantically lit bar and dining room. Keith McNally (of Balthazar, Pastis, Schiller's Liquor Bar and Morandi) has nailed it again. The French bistro menu emphasizes steaks and chops, but there are also well-executed fish, chicken and pasta dishes. Classic cocktails are another specialty.

Compliance Certification Report
3.4.11 |
For each major in a degree program, the institution assigns responsibility for program coordination, as well as for curriculum development and review, to persons academically qualified in the field. In those degree programs for which the institution does not identify a major, this requirement applies to a curricular area or concentration. (Academic Program Coordination) |
| |||||||
Narrative: | |||||||
The term "degree program" is defined in Texas legislation as "any grouping of subject matter courses which, when satisfactorily completed by a student, will entitle him to a degree from a public senior college or university or a medical or dental unit (1)." The University of Texas Medical Branch at Galveston (UTMB) assigns responsibility for program coordination, curriculum development, and curriculum review for degree programs to academically qualified faculty members (2). Authority for specific courses of study lies with the sponsoring chair or program director or, in the case of interdisciplinary courses in the School of Medicine, with the Curriculum Committee. | |||||||

Everyone who reads my reviews will know by now what a huge fan I am of Lush products, in fact of the whole company as well as their wonderful array of gorgeous smelling products, I love their morals and ethics in general. Lush's beliefs are at the heart of everything they do, they only use the best of fresh ingredients and the finest of essential oils buying only from other companies that do not commission animal testing, they make highly effective products from soap to perfume all which are invented by themselves and individually handmade using safe synthetics with the bare minimal recycled packaging or none at all in most cases selling their products naked, this encourages recycling and helps to protect our planet. All the morals of only using fresh natural and safe products combined with a determination to make a difference to change the way we use and buy products in the way they are produced and packaged, products that cater for every need and are mostly unisex and are safe and gentle enough to use on children, their determination and strict rules on animal testing and recycling make them a company in which I trust and adore in all that they do and stand for, to add the shop's staff knowledge and expertise on all the products they sell makes Lush a company I will always go back to... Angels on Bare skin is a product I absolutely love, I have used this product for a number of years now so I think I am able to review the product thoroughly, honestly and balanced with extensive experience, I think those reading this will have guessed which direction I am going with this product as I have already stated how much I love it, however I assure you that I didn't instantly warm to this product the first time I tried it, if I am totally honest I was not at all keen at first and it took me a month or so of trial and error to really get to grips with it and slowly I learnt to love it as the essential 'must have' facial product I regard it as today. ==THE PRODUCT== ANGELS ON BARE SKIN PRICED at £5.95 For an 100g Pot Angels on bare skin is one of lush's best sellers which says a lot rally and it is easy to see why after prolonged use, I have a suspicion that it is a best seller partly to do with this being a preservative free product and a dual effect cleanser and exfoliator that smells wonderful and is suitable for all skin types and also for vegans. Originally named Miriam, a name taken from the bible that over time in the early days turned into Angels on bare skin during production, it is basically a solid that transforms into a cleansing milk when warm water is added, by taking the water content out of this product Lush have removed the need to add preservatives which means that Angels on bare skin is 100% naturally produced and contains no nasties and only the safest of ingredients combined with essential oils to make an effective cleanser that is kind to the skin and does not upset the skins naturally occurring delicate balance of oils. It is made by rolling Kaolin just like you would roll dough using a rolling pin, mixing all the essential oils and ingredients together to form a slab and is rolled flat, then it is sprinkled generously with Lavender flowers and finally folded and rolled together just like you would a Swiss roll! This is then cut into 100g portions and potted into recycled plastic pots, the date the product was made, where and whom made it is placed on the product using a sticker that is also recycled allowing the buyer to see that it is fresh. The Lush description of this product is... " As gentle and beautiful as being kissed by angels, made from 100% natural ingredients because when nature is this good you don't want to mess with her balance!" ==THE INGREDIENTS== Ground

Silva de Assis Carneiro Juliano Present position: Temporary Researcher http://home.dei.polimi.it/carneiro |
Thesis title: | Advanced Control and Protection Strategies against Thermal Overloads in Transmission Circuits |
Advisor: | Luca Ferrarini |
Research area: | Control Systems |
Thesis abstract: | This work addresses some of the issues related to the protection systems against thermal overloads in HV transmission lines. After the introduction of the electricity market, the power system has been pushed to operate closer to its physical limits and with lower safeguards. Consequently, the probability of widespread blackouts cannot be overlooked, especially in case of stressed operating conditions characterized by vulnerable transmission networks with high power flows. According to this context, the main objective of this research consists in developing a defense methodology, composed of both local and wide area protection systems, that attempts to reduce the probability and impact of catastrophic outages due to cascade line tripping following thermal overloads. The first research activities intend to find out the causes of hidden failures in local protective relays against thermal overloads. Basically, the incorrect operations of overload protections are induced not only by a conservative estimation of weather variables, but also by an old-fashioned operating principle based exclusively on the electrical current. Therefore, a careful study of the meteorological phenomena is carried out in order to identify the important features of weather variables, such as periodic components and strong correlations patterns. In addition, different models are proposed to represent the climatic behaviors, including deterministic and probabilistic methodologies. For what concerns the operating principle of traditional overload relays, an alternative intervention philosophy is conceived to enhance the reliability of protections. The novel protection logic includes explicitly a thermal model of bare overhead conductors and, based on the online estimation of the line temperature, decides whether to trip out the transmission circuit. According to the modeling technique used to describe the weather variables, the protection logic is analyzed and designed with either deterministic or probabilistic approach. In the latter case, an optimal discrete filter estimates online the stochastic distribution of conductor temperatures using the linearized thermal model. Simulation results reveal that the current capacity of transmission lines, as well as the reliability level of local overload protections, could be drastically increased by employing the proposed methodologies. For severe overloads in transmission systems, some dedicated protection system is required to execute fast corrective actions and to prevent cascade line tripping. From this perspective, a wide area protection system (WAPS) based on model predictive control (MPC) is proposed to mitigate in advance thermal overloads. The predictive controller aims to keep the conductor temperatures below their admissible limits before the tripping of lines due to the intervention of local relays. This objective is accomplished by properly coordinating different control actions available in power systems, while minimizing a suitable cost function subject to explicit constraints on the conductor temperatures. Future temperatures of the transmission lines are predicted using the linearized thermal model of conductors. The electrical currents are obtained from the DC power-flow approximation of electric networks, whereas dynamic stochastic ARIMA models are used to describe the weather variables. At each sample period, the MPC algorithm computes online the sequence of future controls actions by solving a constrained optimization problem and applies the first action of this sequence to the system. Afterwards, the receding horizon principle is used to yield a state feedback control law by measuring the system response and updating the optimization problem for the next sample period. Numerical experiments in a simple test system are used to compare the proposed solution with an existing wide area protection against thermal overloads. Results demonstrate that the proposed scheme might increase significantly the reliability of WAPS and the amount of energy transmitted in the power system. In addition, the novel scheme could reduce the overall efforts required to fulfill the control objectives. |

Labor gets it right on Wong
PUBLISHED: 01 Nov 2012 00:35:52 | UPDATED: 01 Nov 2012 00:35:52PUBLISHED: 01 Nov 2012 PRINT EDITION: 01 Nov 2012The decision to prefer Don Farrell to Penny Wong on the SA Labor senate ticket may have been made democratically by SA Labor, but it seems to defy good politics and common sense.
Without detracting from Senator Farrell, Senator Wong is a highly regarded and popular minister. As such, she should have almost automatically qualified for the No. 1 spot on the senate ticket.
But it is pleasing to see that Don Farrell has now realised the bizarre situation that has developed and has now volunteered to give up the No. 1 spot on the Labor senate ticket.

If such a day would come where your significant other decides to end the relationship, most likely for someone else, what would you do? Would you simply move on with your life, cry her a river, take a vacation to the Moon, go hiking, or would you spend $18,000 to create a sex doll made in her image? Apparently, an Italian businessman did the latter.
The unnamed 50 year old Italian businessman was distraught after his ex-girlfriend dumped him for unknown reasons, so he went to Temptations toymaker Diego Bortolin and asked if he could recreate his ex-girlfriend as a realistic sex toy. The 50 year old man brought with him a few pictures of his former lady for Diego Bortolin to use, and he asked to make her breasts bigger.
(The image you see above isn't the image of the actual sex toy.)
Usually, Bortolin would charge a cool $5,000 to get the job done, however, this is a special case. The man wanted the sex toy to have all the features of his ex-girlfriend, even the teeth and nails should be similar to the real thing, so Bortolin charged a special price — $18,000.
Now here's the kicker, the sex toy is quite flexible and is capable of taking any position humanly possible. Meaning this little old man is going to be quite busy during those lonely nights with this realistic sex toy; let's hope he doesn't kill himself in pain and anguish when the toy doesn't vocally respond to his seductive ways.
It is never easy going through a breakup, especially if had been in a relationship with the person for any number of years. However, this is not the way to handle it, you just don't go ahead and make plans to have a realistic sex toy created out of your ex's figure and likeness. What do we suggest? Simple; eat a pack of Snickers.

" let's hope he doesn't kill himself in pain and anguish when the toy doesn't vocally respond to his seductive ways." Maybe the real one didn't either…. Or maybe he wouldn't mind a little silence.
After the breakup, he wants something to do with his ex-girlfriend? Hey, there are lots of flowers in this world.
Hmm, I'm trying not to see the clean-up afterwards, so what does he do just hose her down?

Sex toy that looks like your ex? Nothing creepy about that, no sir!

CHICAGO (AP) — A new study says a surprising number of new fathers with depression spank their 1-year-olds.
About 40 percent of depressed fathers in the survey said they had spanked their kids at that age, compared to just 13 percent of fathers who weren't depressed.
Researchers analyzed data on 1,746 fathers in 16 large U.S. cities, from 1999-2000, the most recent comprehensive data on the subject.
Lead author Dr. Neal Davis, who conducted the study while at the University of Michigan, says depression among fathers is strongly tied to unemployment rates, which are much higher now than a decade ago.
Many child development experts warn against spanking young children. Other studies have shown that kids who are spanked are at risk of being physically abused and becoming aggressive themselves.
The researchers in this study say spanking is especially troubling in children who are only 1, because they could get injured and are unlikely to understand why they're being spanked.
The study is in Monday's journal Pediatrics.

The incident
The laughter epidemic began on January 30, 1962, at a mission-run boarding school for girls in Kashasha. The laughter started with three girls and spread haphazardly throughout the school, affecting 95 of the 159 pupils, aged 12–18. Symptoms lasted from a few hours to 16 days in those affected. The teaching staff were not affected but reported that students were unable to concentrate on their lessons. The school was forced to close down on March 18, 1962.
After the school was closed and the students were sent home, the epidemic spread to Nshamba, a village that was home to several of the girls. In April and May, 217 people had laughing attacks in the village, most of them being school children and young adults. The Kashasha school was reopened on May 21, only to be closed again at the end of June. In June, the laughing epidemic spread to Ramashenye girls' middle school, near Bukoba, affecting 48 girls. Another outbreak occurred in Kanyangereka and two nearby boys schools were closed.
The Tanganyika laughter epidemic is sometimes understood as implying that thousands of people were continuously laughing for months. However this may not have been the case. Other reports tell that the epidemic consisted of occasional attacks of laughter among groups of people and the laughter was incapacitating when it struck. Scientists have confirmed that
Laughing is a reaction to certain stimuli, fundamentally stress, which serves as an emotional balancing mechanism. Traditionally, it is considered a visual expression of happiness, or an inward feeling of joy. It may ensue from hearing a joke, being tickled, or other stimuli...
can be contagious.
The school from which the epidemic sprang was sued; the children and parents transmitted it to the surrounding area. Other schools, Kashasha itself, and another village, comprising thousands of people, were all affected to some degree. Six to eighteen months after it started, the phenomenon died off. The following symptoms were reported on an equally massive scale as the reports of the laughter itself: pain, fainting, respiratory problems, rashes, attacks of crying, random screaming. In total 14 schools were shut down and 1000 people were affected.

Anyway, I had just returned from a trip to some other country and left my passport in the glove box of my car. A couple days later I took the car into a shop for some service, completely forgetting about the passport. Got the car back the next day and of course the passport was gone. Reported it to the police and went to the consulate in Frankfort for a new passport, which was issued to me without much problem.
Several months later, I flew back to the states and was stopped at customs in the Philadelphia airport. The customs folks wanted to make sure it was me, for which I was actually quite grateful. Moral of the story: Keep your passport on you at all times when you are traveling!

Vaccinium boreale Hall & Aalders
Alpine Blueberry
- State Rank: S2
- Global Rank: G4
- State Status: Special Concern
Habitat: Alpine meadows and exposed, rocky sites. [Alpine or subalpine (non-forested, upland); Rocky coastal (non-forested, upland)]
Range: Newfoundland, Labrador, and northern Quebec, south to the alpine summits of northern New England and northern New York.
Aids to Identification: Blueberries are well known shrubs with alternate, simple leaves, white, urceolate (urn-shaped) flowers and sweet berry fruits. Vaccinium boreale is a dimunitive blueberry of exposed environments. It occurs with, and looks very similar to, the common V. angustifolium, lowbush blueberry, at all known sites in Maine. V. boreale is a short (up tp 9 cm tall), shrub with very narrow (2-6 mm wide) leaves. V. angustifolium is either taller or with wider leaves, or both. Additionally, the flowers of V. boreale are smaller (corolla is 3-4 mm long) and appear 10-20 days earlier than the flowers of V. angustifolium (corolla is 4-8 mm long).
Ecological characteristics:Often found growing in cracks in rocks in alpine environments, often with other Vaccinium species.
Phenology: Flowers June - July.
Family: Ericaceae
Synonyms: Formerly considered a variety of Vaccinium angustifolium Ait.; now known to be chromosomally and morphologically distinct.
Known Distribution in Maine: This rare plant has been documented from a total of 9 town(s) in the following county(ies): Franklin, Hancock, Piscataquis, Somerset.
Dates of documented observations are: 1915, 1994, 1995 (2), 1996, 1997, 1998, 2000 (2), 2001 (3), 2002
Reason(s) for rarity: At southern limit of range; habitat is naturally scarce. This plant is uncommon, but not as rare as previously believed.
Conservation considerations: At some locations, small populations could be threatened by heavy hiker or tourist use.

Best Place to Buy Lumber Like Your Daddy Did Fort Lauderdale and Palm Beach 2003 - Lauderdale Lumber Co.
Nestled in a most unlikely place a couple blocks north of downtown, Lauderdale Lumber is a time warp back to the days before cavernous megastores. The store is notable for what it doesn't have: dozens of aisles of patio furniture, lawn equipment, houseplants, commodes, appliances, and a glut of other items that have nothing to do with a modest building project. Instead, 20 paces into Lauderdale Lumber, you're looking at boards. Open boxes of screws and bolts are stacked according to size along a few rows. Forget prepackaged cartons that contain superfluous amounts; if you need only one 9-cent bolt, that's all you have to buy. Same with nails, which are sold in bulk out of old-fashioned sheet-metal bins. Even the building is anachronistic, a hoary brick affair with exposed wood rafters. Like that other bygone institution, the neighborhood hardware store, Lauderdale Lumber also offers a basic array of home improvement tools, door hardware, glues, and molding. Your pappy would be right at home.

I did choose "yes" for repurchasing but, to be honest, Dior's 5 pan shadows can be so iffy, that I always wait to check out beauty blog reviews and always try these out in-store - I'd never buy one without being able to test it first. In a luxury product with a relatively high price, the unreliable quality (a large number of these aren't just mediocre - they are really crappy) is pretty inexcusable. I have two 5-pan palettes that I really like (Bonne Etoile and Golden Savannah) but there are so many others that have looked nice but have been poorly pigmented, chalky, hard to apply....all the faults you can attribute to eyeshadows. My advice would be to check these out - either in multiple online reviews or in person, or BOTH if it's possible - before dropping a substantial amount on them to make sure you are truly getting your money's worth.

Nude pink design. Texture is fantastic, I never go for a heavy makeup look so this is perfect for me. Those who are after a lot of color would be disappointed by this. Texture of the product is fantastic, glides on and stays put really well. I do have oily lids and refuse to use primers so I do expect the product to move and crease towards the end of the day, however, this does quite well! Packaging is quite bulky and heavy- I know it looks very pretty but I think practicality is more important :)
This is probably one of the best eye shadows in the market. The color is buildable so it can be used as an everyday shadow or smoky effect looks for special events.

This is a very expensive designer product and i received it as a Christmas gift from my family and am delighted with it. I have mature, crepey wrinkled skin round my eyes which I thought only cosmetic surgery could rescue but Dior works miracles for an optical illusion of smooth skin and beautiful symmetrical eye shapes. I had a Department Store MUA apply this for me and teach me how to do it at home so I am 100% happy with the look and feel of the product on my skin. It just glides on, blends beautifully and doesnt crease. It is a satiny product so it doesnt sparkle too much, neither is it too matte which can look chalky and dull.
I recommend these eyeshadows for women of all ages, especially the elderly, who find they are more limited in terms of colours and textures, if they want a really flattering look

Love love love. Blends perfectly, long lasting, does not crease, heaven to apply, luxurious and worth the price. My only gripe is I have to throw mine out pretty soon (it's been 2-3 years since I got them). I've hit the pan but there are still respectable amounts left. Will surely repurchase, but maybe in different colors. It's a must have in my collection.
Love these eye shadows. They are very pigment rich and last a long time. The colors it comes with in the palettes compliment each other and it takes the guess work out of having to pick shadows. These are truely wonderful.
I got the Night Butterfly for my birthday and fell in LOVE with it. The colors are amazing and blend like a dream. I would be willing to spend the cash on another one.
I absolutly love these shadows they are ultra fine and last so long. They are easily blendable and they just look so good on your face. I have bought numourous. They are expensive, but for a treat, you should buy yourself one. My eyeshadows last so long that it is totally worth it.
I bought the 5-pan eyeshadows in Earth Reflection and i'm loving it ! Long-wearing and pigmented colors. The gold is really pretty and shiny..but the pink in the middle is a little too pale, but overall Dior 5-pan worth the money!
I have tried 2 different compacts, one was shades of purple and my recent one is called "Smoky Light." Maybe it's just because I am used to Urban Decay and Too Faced, but to me these are so sheer! The compact I have has 2 greys and 2 browns and no matter which color I use they pretty much look the same. They are smooth and not too shimmery, but there isn't much too them! I've gotten better color from drugstore brands! I'm not sure why people love these so much, it's so expensive for such little pigment.

- English Barclays Premier League
- 12 January 2013, 12:45pm
- Loftus Road
- Attendance: 18,018
QPR | v | Tottenham |
0 | 0 |
live commentary
QPR hauled themselves a point nearer the Premier League dotted line after holding Harry Redknapp's old side Tottenham at bay in a stalemate at Loftus Road.
Although Jermain Defoe hit the post in the first half and Julio Cesar brilliantly saved Emmanuel Adebayor's follow-up, Spurs failed to make incisions in QPR's packed and organised defence. The hosts could even have won the game if Shaun Wright-Phillips had kept his composure at the end of several thrilling runs.
Cesar firstly tipped Defoe's exocet effort on to the post in the fifth minute, before getting up to throw himself in front of Adebayor's low shot from close range. Wright-Phillips then fired wide after his run was briefly held up by Kyle Walker.
Wright-Phillips then outfoxed Walker on the touchline and burst past Michael Dawson, but shot hurriedly wide from the edge of the box when he could have taken the ball on. That was the sum total of chances for the first half. Spurs lost Sandro who stretched for the ball with no opponent near him and sustained a strain which forced him to be replaced by Scott Parker.
The pattern of overwhelming but comfortably resisted Spurs pressure continued in the second half. Defoe's deflected shot was well kept out by Cesar. QPR emerged from their bunker to break forward occasionally, and Wright-Phillips again spurned their only real chance, hesitating at the crucial moment and losing possession having been played into the box by Adel Taarabt.
The point lifts Rangers off the bottom of the table and above Reading, but isn't much help to Tottenham's quest to get back into the Champions League. Scroll down to see how the action unfolded.
FULL TIME: Harry Redknapp set his team up to win a point, and they have earned one. It's the first time Spurs have failed to score away from home since April. No-one can blame the R's for their slightly unadventurous approach. This could be a crucial point in lifting themselves out of trouble. Depending on the result at Villa Park, they could end today just four points from safety. Spurs missed a couple of chances, but ran out of ideas in the second half. QPR had a few sniffs of their own, but didn't force Hugo Lloris into a single save.
90 mins: We will have two minutes of injury time.
87 mins: The pressure is all one-way but there's no penetration or thrust to Spurs' attacking - it's all patient sideways passing. QPR's resistance is looking more and more comfortable, although I doubt it feels like that for their defenders!
85 mins: Out of nowhere, Wright-Phillips bursts into the left-hand side of the Spurs box, but can only produce a fresh-air shot under pressure from a defender.
84 mins: Mackie commits a foul on Dempsey 30 yards from QPR's goal. Bale takes it but it drifts tamely wide as Cesar watches it bounce into the hoardings behind his goal. "0-0 written all over this I am afraid," says Daniel Jennings @ Work, Altrincham. I can only agree.
81 mins: Pass, pass, pass, pass go Spurs. Defend, defend, defend, go QPR. The visitors cannot get in behind that packed rearguard. Something bizarre or pretty spectacular has got to happen if we're to see a goal here.
79 mins: AVB throws on Gylfi Sigurdssonfor Lennon.
77 mins: Lloris puts out his cigar and lays down his newspaper to come rushing out of his area and boot clear, foiling Wright-Phillips' dashing run through the middle.
76 mins: Spurs continue to pass the ball to death, but QPR carry on hurriedly closing down the man in possession, committing very few men forward. The stalemate goes on.
73 mins: Taarabt and Fabio combine daintily down the left to set the full-back free down the left. Only Mackie has made a run in the centre, and Fabio's ball across the six yard line is too far in front of him.
71 mins: Twenty minutes to go and Hugo Lloris still hasn't got his gloves dirty. Jason Williams, a Liverpool fan from Kent (no comment), says: "Tottenham will win 1-0 bale 84 minute winner will break harrys and qprs hearts lol."
70 mins: Mbia is booked for a handball in centre field while jumping for a header with Bale. Not sure it was deliberate, and neither is Mbia hmiself.
69 mins: Adebayor is taken off by Villas-Boas and will head for the Africa Cup of Nations. On comes Clint Dempsey.
67 mins: A very brief glimpse of goal for Adebayor but the ball falls to his left peg. He has a milisecond to shoot but opts against it and gets only a corner. Like Spurs' other 986 corners they've had today, it comes to nowt.
64 mins: Taarabt swerves away from Naughton down QPR's right and slaloms into the box. Having done all the hard work he tries two or three tricks too many and the chance to cross for at least two willing team-mates is snuffed out.
62 mins: Another corner for Spurs but Walker's delivery is too 'flat' and easily dealt with. Can spurs find a way to smash down the QPR portcullis?
60 mins: A bit of news from the QPR dug-out. Steve Cotterill, former boss of Nottingham Forest, is a new recruit to Harry Redknapp's back room staff. So recent, in fact, that QPR neglected to include him on the official rota of permitted bench staff, so he's been banished to the front row of seats behind the bench for the second half!
58 mins: Successive corners for Spurs in front of their travelling fans. The second is headed over the bar by Dawson.
55 mins: QPR relieve the pressure as Mbia, inevitably, marauds into enemy territory. The R's keep it in the corner for a wee while and the home side's defenders are grateful of a breather.
53 mins: Spurs cranking up the pressure. Defoe skips inside Onuoha inside the box and drills a shot goalwards. It's deflected which wrong-foots Cesar, but he sticks out a leg to make a vital save.
51 mins: ...Ooooh! Walker takes the resulting free kick and whips it *this far* over the angle of post and bar. Cesar was motionless. That looked in all the way.
50 mins: Lennon, bursting at full pace, gets a little shove in the back from the pursuing Fabio. Lennon takes a couple of steps until he gets in the box then goes down. Lee Probert isn't fooled and gives a free kick outside the box when the contact occured...
49 mins: The pattern resumes - Spurs enjoying most of the possession but unable to get in behind QPR's solid deep-lying defensive line.
47 mins: Early free kick opportunity for Spurs. Bale whips it over the wall and although it's initially straight at Cesar, it wobbles in the air, causing the ex-Inter 'keeper to spill it. There's no-one there to punish him.
46 mins: Welcome back. Spurs get the second half off and running. No change of personnel for either side.
HALF TIME:A staunch first-half performance from QPR, inhibiting Spurs' many attacking talents very efficiently. It hasn't made for a dazzling spectacle, but Harry Redknapp will be pretty satisfied so far. Just that one early double chance for Spurs as Cesar tipped Defoe's shot on to the post, then foiled Adebayor's follow-up. Wright-Phillips has missed QPR's only two opportunities. Intriguing. Stay tuned.
45 mins: Chance for Wright-Phillips! His delicious drag-back sees him outwit and sprint away from Walker, then duck inside Dawson, but his shot from the edge of the box is hurried, when the coast was clear to skip past Vertonghen too and shoot from a much closer position. A shame, as the run was dazzling.
42 mins: The stalemate continues. QPR are competing ferociously for possession, giving Spurs no time on the ball.
39 mins: A slightly harsh booking for Dembele as he trips Mackie. Didn't look particularly deliberate to me.
37 mins: QPR's game plan is working nicely. Neither of Spurs' dangerous wingers has been afforded much space and space has been closed down effectively when ever the visitors have come forward. Lloris hasn't had a save to make yet, mind.
34 mins: Pretty much nothing of note has happened in either penalty box for over 20 minutes. QPR give the ball away to Bale who hares down the left in his inimitable fashion, but his cross is far too high.
31 mins: Mbia has been influential for QPR thus far, driving forward from midfield with those tree-trunk legs pounding. On this occasion he slightly over-hits a ball out wide to Mackie and Naughton mops up.
28 mins: Its not quite the open, attractive game us neutrals might have hoped for (actually as a Saints fan I'm hoping for a massive away win, but anyway...). Adebayor receives the ball with back to goal and shovels it left to the onrushing Walker, but his drive is miscued and dribbles well wide.
26 mins: Park plays in Taarabt down the inside left channel and he scuttles to the byline. Faced with Dawson, he tries a little shuffley backheel trick and only succeeds in knocking the ball out for a goal kick, right in front of the Spurs fans. Needless to say, they all pass on their commiserations.
24 mins: Sandro hobbles down the tunnel to get his diagnosis. On comes Scott Parker in his place.
23 mins: Sandro looks to be in a spot of bother. Stretching for the ball with no opponent near him, he collapses to the turf. On comes the physio, but it doesn't look like he'll be able to carry on.
21 mins: Mbia bursts on to a tasty throughball from Mackie and seems set to outpace Dawson, who looks like he's running in tar. The defender slides in at the last moment and manages to hook the ball off the Cameroonian's toe.
18 mins: Spurs are beginning to find a rhythm, working the ball around fluently. "Come on QPR Harry needs this over his old club for letting him go best manager spurs ever had," says Simon in Hull.
15 mins: Dawson clatters through the back of Taarabt as the Moroccan performs a typical balletic aerial backheel. No booking from Lee Probert, which is unlike him!
12 mins: Real chance for Wright-Phillips. He's played through by a visionary ball from Taarabt. He's briefly in on goal, but Walker does enough wrestling and tugging to put him off and get a toe on the ball. SWP battles on and manages to get a shot away despite the intervention of Dawson, but it deflects wide.
10 mins: M'Bia robs Dembele in the centre circle and rampages forward, but there's a toal breakdown in communication between he and Taarabt, causing the midfielder to cross the ball into an empty box.
8 mins: Replays show Cesar in fact got a touch to Defoe's piledriver to touch it on to the post. To save the follow-up as well as magnificent from the Brazilian. Mackie tigerishly chases down a lost cause and is unlucky to be whistled for a foul on Naughton.
5 mins: Spurs go close.. twice! Defoe pulls the trigger from just outside the box and cannons against the post as Cesar grapples at thin air. the ball rebounds to Adebayor, who nips inside the last defender and must surely slot it past the 'keeper? No! Cesar gets up off the deck to pull off a brilliant stop.
4 mins: Kev in Cheshire says: "Cant see anything other than an easy spurs win from this game. no great escape for harry this time,QPR in championship for sure." I've got a nasty feeling they're going to get out of it, y'know.
2 mins: Dembele is aghast at hearing the whistle for an apparent foul on QPR's right flank. The resulting free kick into a packed area is very poor indeed and headed away by Bale.
0 mins: The hosts get us under way. It's dry but cold in west London, with a few players going for the nancy boy gloves option. Redknapp and his White Hart Lane successor Villas-Boas have just shared a hug and a brief exchange of pleasantries. Penny for 'Arry's thoughts.
1230: Welcome to Loftus Road where Harry Redknapp faces his old employers having fallen on hard times with his new club Queen's Park Rangers. Today is all about 'Arry, and beneath all his bluster, you suspect that that's exactly how he likes it.
Rangers remain bottom of the table and five points from safety, although Redknapp has engineered two wins since taking over from Mark Hughes, including last week's splendid 1-0 victory at Chelsea. Spurs are up to third on the back of just one defeat in their last 12 games.
Team news: QPR make two changes from their win over Chelsea. Ji-sung Park and Shaun Wright-Phillips come in for injured duo Esteban Granero and Junior Hoilett, who both have hamstring injuries. Tal Ben Haim must wait for his league debut. Andre Villas-Boas makes just one change to his line-up, with Gareth Bale returning at the expense of Gylffi Sigurdsson. Emmanuel Adebayor plays his last game before departing to the Africa Cup of Nations, although fresh reports claim he could be set to withdraw from the Togo squad.

match report
Queens Park Rangers produced a disciplined performance to hold Harry Redknapp's former club Tottenham Hotspur to a 0-0 draw at Loftus Road.
In a game which only sporadically sprung into life, QPR goalkeeper Julio Cesar made smart stops in the early stages of each half to ensure Redknapp's new club moved off the foot of the table for a few hours until Reading's victory over West Brom.
Tottenham could have been in front after just five minutes, but were denied by a tremendous double save from Cesar.
The Brazilian firstly tipped Jermain Defoe's thumping drive onto the post before recovering quickly to get down low to keep out Emmanuel Adebayor's shot from the rebound when the Togo striker should have scored.
QPR responded through Shaun Wright-Phillips, who saw his shot deflected past the upright by Michael Dawson after the winger had been played in by a superb pass from Adel Taarabt.
But chances were scarce for the rest of the opening 45 minutes as Spurs were forced to bring on Scott Parker for the injured Sandro before the half closed with Wright-Phillips shooting wide after he had skipped past Kyle Walker and Dawson.
Spurs started the second half strongly as Gareth Bale's swerving free-kick was parried by Cesar, who could then only watch as Walker's arcing free-kick dipped just over the crossbar.
The visitors continued to carry the main attacking threat and Defoe found a yard of space in the box on 53 minutes only for the England international's shot to clatter off Cesar.
Hugo Lloris had been a virtual spectator in the second half, but the Spurs keeper was out smartly with 13 minutes to go to clear the danger after Taarabt had again tried to slip Wright-Phillips in behind the defence.
Taarabt and Wright-Phillips linked up to good effect again with five minutes to go, only for the former Chelsea winger to stumble in the penalty area as he prepared to shoot.
Spurs tried to exert pressure in the final few minutes, but their passing lacked incision as QPR comfortably held out for a deserved point.

As Purim approaches, thousands of Israeli children and families grapple with poverty
Slightly early this year, Israel had its first major rain storm, called in Hebrew, the Yoreh rain. The rain and wind were so strong in some areas that Sukkahs were knocked down and even blown away.
Only on Thursday, during the Shmini Atzeret (Simchat Torah) holiday, does Israel begin to add the prayers for rain into the daily prayers.

Food lovers meet up at Dragon Hall during their night of culinary delights at different Norwich locations during the 2012 Moveable Feast event. PHOTO BY SIMON FINLAY
By VICTORIA LEGGETT
Wednesday, September 26, 2012
Lloyd Addison's daughter last night said her dad would have been "immensely proud" as 670 diners headed off on the Moveable Feast he founded 13 years ago.
The event, part of the EDP Adnams Norfolk Food and Drink Festival, in association with Norfolk County Council, had sold out.
Cynthia Addison, whose husband Lloyd began the feast as a way to support Norwich's restaurants and raise money for Parkinson's UK, said: "This is the 13th year and I think I could have sold it out two-fold."
Mr Addison, who had Parkinson's disease, died in 2008. Since then the event has continued to raise increasing amounts of money for his chosen charity. After bringing in £8,500 in 2011, organisers were confident last night's event would at least match that. Mr and Mrs Addison's daughter Lauren said the Moveable Feast "epitomised everything he lived for", adding: "All I can see is his smile – how immensely proud he would be.
"There was no bigger advocate for Norwich. He loved the restaurant industry and was so passionate about everyone having a good time."
Last night's feast saw diners enjoying a three-course meal in three different restaurants.
Co-organiser Nick De'Ath said: "We would probably look to increase the number of places next year by increasing the number of restaurants involved. There were 14 this year."
New restaurants taking part included The Iron House and 20 St John's on Saint John Maddermarket while Brasted's, which took over Dragon Hall, and the city's Raffles restaurant group continued their support.
Diners on the feast were asked to rate their main course restaurant during last night's festivities. The winner, along with the fundraising total, will be announced later and named the 2012 Moveable Feast champion.
Tickets for the 2013 feast are on sale now. Call Cynthia on 01603 617269.

Saturday mornings final practice session for the Turkish Grand Prix produced another unusual set of results as some teams focused on lap times in stanbul Park ahead of qualifying and others completed their race running.
Mark Webber made amends for Fridays error by setting fastest time for Red Bull in 1m 27.030s, and David Coulthard, who had been quickest earlier in the session, backed him up with third place on 1m 27.193s. Between them sat Fernando Alonso, who made it a Renault-engined 1-2-3 when he wheeled his R28 round in 1m 27.172s.
As nine-tenths of a second separated the first 16 cars, Nico Rosberg was fourth for Williams on 1m 27.365s ahead of Ferraris Felipe Massa (1m 27.530s), Toyotas Jarno Trulli (1m 27.614s), McLarens Lewis Hamilton (1m 27.658s), Toyotas Timo Glock (1m 27.733s), Hondas Jenson Button (1m 27.766s), Renaults Nelson Piquet (1m 27.781s), Ferraris Kimi Raikkonen (1m 27.837s), McLarens Heikki Kovalainen (1m 27.849s), Toro Rossos Sebastian Vettel (1m 27.899s), Hondas Rubens Barrichello (1m 27.946s), Toro Rossos Sebastien Bourdais (1m 27.948s) and BMW Saubers Robert Kubica (1m 27.971s).
Then came Kazuki Nakajima (1m 28.301s) for Williams, Force ndias Giancarlo Fisichella (1m 28.573s), 31st birthday boy Nick Heidfeld (1m 28.655s) in the BMW Sauber and Force ndias Adrian Sutil (1m 29.131s).
This time there were fewer incidents than on Friday, but Bourdais, Nakajima, Trulli, Raikkonen and Rosberg all either spun or erred off course, without damage.
Clearly, BMW Sauber were one top team focusing on anything but light fuel runs. But interestingly, when the other two leading teams might have been deemed to be running in similar configurations, Massa set his time just ahead of Hamilton, suggesting that qualifying will at least be very close between the red and silver cars.

A butler's pantry is great for people who like to entertain. But with five children at home, the owners of this kitchen consider theirs an essential piece of family survival gear. Architect Ruth Bennett and kitchen designer/cabinetmaker Paul Reidt gave the storage-and-prep space a generous share of the house's central pavilion, using it to organize activities as well as food. Equipped as a small secondary kitchen, it serves brilliantly at parties and keeps the kids' snack-and-drink runs conveniently out of the main kitchen.
The bank of cabinets that separates the spaces offers its zinc-topped surface as a serving counter, a beverage bar, or—for the family's everyday meals—a buffet. Open shelves above create a porous connection between the two zones. The design team, which included the owners, located walk-in storage for dry goods in the butler's pantry, as well as a pair of built-in homework stations. "It's kind of a multifunctional core area," Bennett says.
The main kitchen's millwork and finishes strike a note of relaxed formality, tempering a strongly axial plan—and refinements such as rift-sawn white oak floors, black granite countertops, and Carrara marble backsplashes—with areas of barn-inspired horizontal V-groove paneling. The painted-wood and walnut cabinets further the balancing act. Reidt started with bone-simple, almost modernist flush drawer fronts and flat-panel doors, then tweaked the design by beefing up horizontal and vertical elements of the face frame. The resulting shadow lines add depth without resorting to curved edge profiles. A dropped soffit over the wall cabinets moderates the room's 9-foot ceiling, while a band of flat trim is a simple stand-in for crown molding.
The Courtyard Residence is made up of three linked pavilions, each with an independent identity. Architect Ruth Bennett and her clients conceptualized the master bedroom pavilion as a peaceful retreat from the world. The owners "see this as their refuge space, almost as if they were in a cottage of their own," Bennett says. Located near the master suite's geographic center, the bathroom conveys an even deeper feeling of remove. But while its landlocked position is great for privacy, Bennett notes, "we wanted to bring in light, so we used [interior] transom windows on two sides." The result is a room that is inward looking, but with no sense of confinement.
Bennett and designer/cabinetmaker Paul Reidt extended the theme of concentric elements by posing a freestanding tub against a wall of wavy, seawater-color tile. At the opposite wall, a pair of tall cabinets brackets a furniturelike vanity cabinet. A shower and toilet compartment stand unobtrusively to one side—the former, behind a glass door; the latter, a solid one—preserving the symmetry of the bathing space. An abbreviated finish schedule of Carrara marble, ceramic tile, and cherry supports the contemplative aim of the design, and its application makes the room a suitable object of contemplation in itself. "It's a simple approach," Reidt says, "but we still wanted to make sure there was a sense of craft."

POSTED: Wednesday, April 14, 2010 - 5:05pm

TYLER-With the threat of late penalties looking you right in the face, thousands of Americans are making the mad dash to "square up" with Uncle Sam before this year's tax deadline zips by.
According to the Internal Revenue Service, one in four taxpayers will typically wait until the last minute to file their returns. And more often then not, this is when most of the problems and mistakes happen.
Over the next 24 hours Liberty Tax Service in Tyler is expecting to have almost 100 late filers walk through their doors. And this comes as no surprise to Co-Owner Maureen Parkhill who tells us for some it's a ritual to file last minute.
"Definitely, especially if they owe," Parkhill said.
According to tax experts, here are a few common tax-return mistakes you may want to avoid.
Not attaching W-2 form to your return.
"They forget that they worked another job, so they don't know there missing a W-2 or 1099," she said. "They file their taxes and a month later here it comes, so they have to amend their taxes."
Another common mistake lies in the math, so make sure you double check your math, especially on the big items like your key income and deductions.
While some may not get their math correct, others forget to sign their name on the dotted line. And that's one of the reasons why Mrs. Parkhill recommends filing electronically.
"That's the best way to go because the IRS can get it right away and if they get a refund they'll get it in 15 days," she said.
Though the whole process is stressful and confusing, if you don't file your subject to interest and penalties.
"Don't be afraid of them," Parkhill said. "If you stick your head in the sand it will never get better."
And if you simply can't get your taxes done on time, you can request an extension. You can submit form 4868 by April 15th and that will push your filing deadline back to October 15.

Historic preservation organization offers first-ever cookbook
Sonny Long
Dec. 21, 2011 at 6:21 a.m.
Pollo Verde Soup
Lee Kinzel's Recipe from Sisters Tea Room
3 bundles mustard greens
2 bundles cilantro
1 stalk celery
2 heads leaf lettuce
1 bag fresh spinach
9 limes - juiced
8 cups chicken - cooked and cubed
1 tsp Tabasco
Salt, pepper and garlic to taste
My notes: Put chicken in pot with cold water, salt, pepper, and garlic. Bring to boil and reduce to simmer. Cook chicken slowly until tender. Remove the chicken to cool.
Roughly chop all greens and add to chicken broth. Simmer until greens are tender.
Add juice of limes and Tabasco sauce.
Add cubed chicken. When it is hot, serve in large bowls.
This is a very brothy soup - not thick.
Lee Kinzel had a business in the mid to late '80s called Sisters - named for his sister Debra. It was like a tea room and they sold antiques. The building in recent years has been La Rosita Bakery on West Water Street. Kinzel operated the Skyline Diner at the airport, Doodle's Restaurant (where the Downtown Grill is today), and Sisters. This recipe and another of his recipes were served at all three locations. Kinzel died more than 20 years ago.

Looking for a unique last-minute Christmas gift?
Victoria Preservation Inc. is offering its inaugural cookbook - "Culinary Crossroads of South Texas"- a compilation of historical recipes as well as "tried and true" recipes from friends of the county organization.
The project was spearheaded by former county judge Helen Walker, a member of VPI's board of directors.
Recipes were solicited during the summer and fall and the committee made the selections. The books are hardback and contain an index of contributors.
"It's the first one we've ever done," said Gary Dunnam, VPI executive director. "It's a combination of historical and modern recipes, as well as a sprinkling of historic photographs."
Dunnam said the book is available at the Victoria Preservation Inc. office, 205 W. Goodwin Ave., and will remain on sale after Christmas. The cost is $20, which includes tax. The office will be closed for a county holiday on Friday and Monday.
"It makes a great Christmas gift, but would also be a great addition for anyone who likes cookbooks or Victoria County history," said Dunnam.
VPI fosters the preservation, protection and development of historically significant artifacts and properties in Victoria County.
This is accomplished through education, advocacy and acquisition, according to VPI's website.
