We were new to Austin 2 years ago and tried Airbnb for the first time when we moved here then. It has been a wonderful opportunity to make new friends and we decided to host fellow travellers and those who are making Austin their new home. We love to travel and we've been to many countries. We can also be considered foodies because we really enjoy trying new and different types of cuisine. Ernest loves sports and is a tech geek whereas Lila is more of a homebody and loves to bake and cook. We have also recently became proud parents of a beautiful boy.
We had stopped being Airbnb hosts after having our baby but the draw of meeting guests from all over the world was too hard to resist. We have hosted guests from England, France, Germany, Spain, Switzerland, Holland, Poland, Malaysia, Indonesia, China, South Korea, Japan, Philippines, India, Bangladesh, Thailand, New Zealand, Brazil, Mexico, Chile, Syria, Palestine, Tanzania, Russia, Australia, Ireland, Nepal, Peru and of course the many states of the USA. There's also young, old, married, kids, moving to Austin, Christians, Muslims, Mormons, Hindus, Buddhists, Jews, grandparents, moms, dads, LGBT and many more. What a wonderful world we live in! If you are not in this list, then there's always a first and we embrace diversity. Hopefully you will enjoy our company as we embark on this adventure together. Thank you also for helping us achieve the SuperHost status.
In the meantime, you can know more about us by checking out our webpage at f-b/cheah.welcome
Every Superhost has their own style, but they've all reached key hospitality goals.
Congratulations, you're a Superhost! We'll reward you with priority support, product previews and more.
Ernest & Lila has completed online and offline ID verification.
Ernest was a wonderful host and his wife were very welcoming. I got a temporary issue when renting a car and Ernest offered me rides and that was lifesaver.
Great deal!! Ernest and Lila are great people with a lovely home. I thought the space was cozy, spacious and a great place to relax.
Ernest and Lila's home could have been custom-built for Airbnb. Upstairs there are two comfortable bedrooms that share a spacious, complete bathroom. They also share a very large living area, complete wiith hi-def projector tv and more. Downstairs there is another living area, a nicely appointed kitchen and another guest room with a private bath. My wife and I intended to stay a week, but when circumstances changed we enthusiastically signed up for another week. The price is very good for what you enjoy. The neighborhood is nice, and safe, but a visit to the grocery or restaurant will usually require a drive unless you have a bit of time. I highly recommend it.
What a cute family! Lila, Ernest and Millard are just wonderful. Their son is the happiest baby I have ever seen! Oh an not to forget their really nice and friendly dog Max. My request was last minute over the holidays but Ernest and Lila accepted me although they had just had family stay over and their own travel plans coming up. And they stayed totally calm managing all :) They make you immediately feel welcome and at home, are so relaxed. We had some nice chats and I even got invited for dinner with their friends. The room is great - it took me a while to realize that my bed was boat shaped :) and that the entire tasteful decor of the room was in a maritime theme! I slept so well, it's a very quiet neighborhood. The house is huge and spacious, very modern and it felt really pleasant. A big shopping complex is just a few mins away. And famous S 1st street with cool cafes and restaurants is easy to reach. I just hopped into my car and was there and in the city in no time. I'm so glad they accepted me, it really made my Austin stay much more special. Thanks Lila, Ernest, cutie Millard, and Max!
hi ernest & lila, I had a great time with you at your place. I had to visit my mom who lives so close, it worked out great. I am a runner and this area was a dream for me. I got around and came and went and they were there for a chat or help when I needed it. (thanks again ernest for the only ride I really needed.) I love the big desk in the room, the clean and spacish room was just what I needed. and the price was the best. I stayed for 2 weeks, and would come again soon. Allison ps. the baby, miilard (sp?), is the best baby, he always was happy to see me, and I think he is the happiest, quietist baby, probably because he's got calm, easy-going parents. see y'all soon
Our experience with Ernest and Lila was great! They were very welcoming hosts (not to mention Max, their very welcoming Lab). The room was nice and clean, and the location was great for our time in Austin.
The neighborhood is beautiful, quiet, and safe and so was their home. I felt comfortable and welcome and very glad to have such a great place to stay.
This place is amazing. All its glowing reviews well deserved. The bedroom and common areas are spacious and comfortable. You can tell that Ernest and Lila work hard to make the guest's experience the best possible. All the perks - video projector, premium cable, iPhone - raise the bar high. And the low rates make it unbeatable.
Excellent stay! Hosts were able to accommodate on short notice. Made trip to first F1 race stress free with routes to take to track.
Ernest & Lila are very friendly and warm people! :) They are very easygoing and hospitable. Their home is in a very quiet, safe neighborhood and you'll feel right at home in their place. I enjoyed my stay and would highly recommend them to anyone looking for an affordable option in Austin! :)
ernest was very respectful and easy going. would recommend him and his wife as guests for sure.
Ernest, Lila and their dog Max were super guests! They are friendly, courteous, pick up after themselves and generally great guests! We'd enjoy having them stay again, anytime they need a place.
Ernest came and stayed with me for a month during his transition to Austin. He and his wife arrived on a weekend of one of my house concerts and were very accommodating to wait to bring their things in until after the music was over. He got along well with the dogs and my cat. He was very respectful and quiet. His work hours had him gone a lot and we didn't see a lot of each other. Despite him relocating to Austin, I would happily host him again! He was easy to talk to and a great guest.

Aurora's new summer music festival is going live.
In a 9-0 recorded vote, council approved in principle Lucid Community Development Group's Aurora Live! 2013: Our Community on Stage music festival proposal last night.
The festival is at Machell Park July 27 and 28 and is expected to draw about 6,000 people.
Council also asked staff to prepare progress reports and meet with the event's organizers, to ensure compliance with municipal fees, permits and other requirements.
"It's a very detailed proposal and the eagerness to partner with the town is well demonstrated," Councillor John Abel said, noting 25 per cent of the event's profits will go to the town.
As part of Lucid's proposal, the group plans to co-host the Aurora Idol and Aurora's Got Talent contests, which the town currently operates, during the festival.
The event will also be fenced, to ensure the safety of visitors and curb potential liability issues, the proposal states.
The event will be held without financial support from the town and organizers say it is expected to generate about $40,700 in profit.
Lucid representatives initially said the town would not need to provide funding for Aurora Live when they made a presentation to council last month.
That was reiterated in a staff report, reviewed by councillors Feb. 5 and a formal written proposal to the town, submitted by Lucid Jan. 22.
However, Lucid added a provision asking for$25,000, in exchange for a 25-per-cent cut of profits for the town, into a written proposal submitted to municipal staff Jan. 28.
The money would have been earmarked to start of a youth performance academy in town.
However, town staff indicated Lucid will not receive any taxpayer money right now.
Any decisions on academy funding will be made after the festival takes place, Mr. Roche said.
"Absolutely, we can do festivals. We've done several," he said while addressing council, noting the group is a non-profit organization. "Our intention is to promote, collaborate and partner with the business community. I threw everything in the proposal. If you don't like onions, pick them out," he said, noting the event is a work in progress.
"We're not asking you for any money," he said. "We're just going to bring our talents and if you like what we do, we can have a different discussion at the end of all of it."
Admission will be $10 for each day of Aurora Live.
Lucid will sell coupon booklets that include a $5 entry discount.
Lucid representatives have already begun contacting local organizations to engage residents and build interest in the festival.
You will get the chance to volunteer to design sets, promote the event through social media and participate in other ways, Mr. Roche said.
Some councillors expressed apprehension about the proposal, despite ultimately voting in favour of it.
"You can understand our concern when we see more than one proposal and we're not sure which one we're supposed to be basing our judgement on," Councillor Chris Ballard said, adding he wants references from other communities where Lucid has worked.
"There's some really good ideas in the proposal, but I don't want Aurora to be at the bleeding edge of being experimented on," he said.
The term "one size fits all" is a cookie cutter approach to design. That may be a fine approach if...

This is how I made them:
- Creamed 125g unsalted butter with 125g golden caster sugar until light and fluffy.
- Broke in 2 duck eggs, beating well between each egg.
- Added 1/3 teaspoon almond extract and beat some more.
- Sifted in 125g self-raising white flour and 1/4 tsp bicarbonate of soda.
- Spooned into 10 muffin cases.
- Placed a heaped tsp of my homemade mincemeat on top.
- Baked at 180C for 15 minutes until risen and golden.

Thank you Floyd! The bread is absolutely delicious!
Here is what I did to Floyd's version of the recipe:
I wanted to share my experience of building a backyard brick oven. I researched (and talked with mates) on and off for quite a few years before getting to work on this project. There is a lot of detail on the internet and books with lots of design, construction and material options (confusing!). I finally settled on a simple design that was a mixture of ideas from various sources. Simple approach as I'm not a trades-person, so I went with a dome shaped oven out in the open to eliminate the need of a chimney. The dome is made from red clay bricks and has an inner diameter is 1.1 meters. The oven is insulated with four layers of perlite-cement mixture and a final outer layer of builder's render. I included two K-type thermocouples during the build so I can measure the floor and dome brick temperatures.
My oven was built mostly from second-hand materials and scrap for about $500 AUD, and was constructed in my spare time between Oct and Dec 2005. I use the oven for pizza days with friends, roasts and veggies on special occasions, and of course bread baking when a few mates also prepare dough to make the firing of the oven worthwhile.
I hope this encourages other novices that may be thinking of a similar project. It wasn't as hard as I had envisaged and has given a tremendous amount of satisfaction and good times.
I enjoy this web site very much and learn a lot by reading the blog. I think it is time to introduce myself. I love baking and when I lived in Canada my children are small and ate everything I baked. My husband and I will spend a weekend baking sweet buns; most of them are Chinese buns just as cocktail buns with coconut filing and pineapple buns with butter topping. After the boys left home we don't see any reason to bake anymore and especially our cholesterol is so high, we have to change our life style. So I stop baking bread altogether. Until two years ago I read in the Newspaper about no knead bread (we moved back to the States). I watched the video and bake one. It became out so good and easy. I changed the recipe and add 50% WW flour. One thing leads to other, I checked out bread books from the library and I brought a couple of books. I took a class Whole Wheat Bread from Peter Reinhart in Atlanta and he also signed my book. I'm back baking bread again and I love it. Siuflower (in Chinese siu means little)

Delicious as always!
But ... I've never baked a loaf that came out of the oven winking at me before.
(From the blog)
It's been a short while since I've updated the blog so here's the latest which was actually made last weekend, June 14th.
This time around, I went with a round bread to see how that would work. Since I still don't have a banneton, I made do with a rice-flour coated, couche-lined sieve. By using a sieve, as opposed to just a bowl, I figured it would allow for some air transfer and keep the couche/canvas from getting damp and tacky. It pretty much worked, although it was still a bit tacky and pulled the dough ball a little when I transfered it to the baking sheet. I did not use the tiles this time, just to see how it would turn out and also to help conserve a certain amount of energy heating them for 45 minutes ahead of time (besides, it was already a pretty hot day, no sense heating up the kitchen even more).
The worry here was that the ball of dough would collapse and turn into a giant disk and not a proper "boule" or ball. Well, it did a bit of both. The soft dough rather spread out once it was on the baking sheet but perked up a bit and rose up during the initial time in the oven. Yes, I'm still guessing what the oven temp actually is, have not yet found a reasonably priced decent oven thermometer.
So again spending the entire time watching the progress and giving the bread a spin halfway through the cooking time, here's the result. (Click pics to enlarge.)
So, let's critique.
The crust this time is thinner which meets with Mark's approval. As per the 'quick" version of the recipe, the dough proofed for only 2.5 hrs so it's not very sour - not necessarily a bad thing. The slashing, well... that definitely needs work still. After I made the first cut, the dough ball rather lost it's firmness and spread out a fair bit so I was a little reluctant to slash too heavily for the other three cuts. The crust looks rather lumpy/crater-ish and not very tight and smooth. I don't know what causes that or how to remedy it. Yet. It could likely have stood a slightly longer baking time to get a bit less... anemic looking.
The crumb is light, not chewy, again this has received good reviews from the white sliced bread fan. In fact I have to admit that there was another loaf, a batard, that never got a chance to get photographed as it vanished pretty darn fast. That one got a brushing with butter as soon as it came out of the oven so the crust there was even more like packaged bread. It was tasty but the butter did not all soak in, so the loaf was a little oily to handle. Since it vanished in about a day, I guess it wasn't a big issue. ;)
So again, we have a successful bake (i.e. nothing burned or flattened like a pancake) with a few minor adjustments to look into:
1) How to keep the boule from flattening too much both before and with the slashing 2) What's the deal with the lumpy crust and why isn't it a nice, tight outside? 3) Considering both points #1 and #2, would a tighter crust translate into a chewier crust? Hmmm..
More rounds to go before these issues are settled.
Anyone old enough to remember those guys?
Poor Goofus could never do anything right and Gallant - well, he was just annoying.
Anyway, I just pulled the weekly baguettes from the oven and they reminded me of those guys. In the spirit of learning/teaching I'd like to use poor Goofus to illustrate something.
I've posted a picture here: http://i264.photobucket.com/albums/ii183/proth5/GoofusandGallant.jpg
I'm not going to do a detailed critique of the numerous, numerous flaws in these baguettes (nor am I really asking for comment other on the topic - I am my own worst critic), but I will focus on their shapes as pulled from the oven.
Gallant - the one on the top- of the picture has some nice symmetry and in general a pleasing shape.
Poor old Goofus has a slash that didn't open well and on the right (your right as you look at the picture) is somewhat scraggly and mis-shapen. Before I put them in the oven I could have predicted that fate. How?
My hands, my dough, but on Goofus, I failed to remove sufficient flour from the dough prior to shaping and to completely clear the bench of flour (residual from the loaf and just got a tiny bit sloppy with clearing the bench - it's hot - the oven is at 500F - oh, excuses, excuses...). When I did the final shaping on Goofus, I had the "ball bearing" effect of the flour - the dough would not roll properly - it slid around on the bench. I worked at it to get an even shape (This was the only difference in the shaping. Consistency may be the bugaboo of little minds, but it is what I do best.)but all was lost. Even though it looked even as I laid it on the couche, it was destined to have a flaw. Same with the left side. The extra flour caused an improper seal and you can see a distinct spiral. It looked ok as dough, but it was destined to bake poorly. I pulled myself together to shape Gallant.
To avoid having to be sent back to "the place" - I will admit that I did a few things right. I particularly like Gallant's grigne - which are not seen to best advantage in this shot.
So big problems from little mistakes grow... It pays to pay attention to the details.
Happy Baking!
This is my latest attempt at Maggie Glezer's Acme baguette recipe. I used scrap dough and poolish as she specifies and the taste was very good. I used K.A. First Clear flour for the scrap dough and K.A. French Style flour for the poolish and dough. Still needs work on shaping technique.

Hamelman's Poolish Baguettes with pate fermente
Hamelman's Poolish Baguettes with pate fermente crumb
These baguettes were made with Hamelman's formula for Poolish Baguettes in "Bread." I used Guisto's Baker's Choice flour for the poolish and the final dough. I made a half recipe. My only modification in ingredients was to throw in about 4 oz of pate fermente - dough left over from the last batch of baguettes I made a couple of days ago.
I also modified Hamelman's baking method in that I preheated the oven to 500F. After loading the loaves and pouring boiling water in the skillet, I turned the oven down to 460F. I baked 20 minutes then left the loaves in the turned off oven with the door ajar for 10 minutes more. (See my previous blog entry for details of Hamelman's method of steaming the oven.)
I got satisfactory oven spring, but it might have been better if I had baked 15 minutes sooner. As it was, these proofed for about 60 minutes. I wonder if the cuts would have opened up more also.
Other than the paltry bloom, these were the best (traditional) baguettes I've made to date. They "sang" while cooling. The crust was perfectly crackly, which thrilled me. The crumb was more open than most baguettes I've made. Not as open as I'd have liked, but I'm getting there. The taste was as good as any baguette I've tasted. I wonder if the pate fermente, as little as it was, added a depth of flavor.
I think I am going to stick with this formula for a while. I'm going to stick with this oven temperature and steaming method. I expect to try different flours and tweak the hydration level and the proofing some.
Now, I've got to go deal with 7 freshly baked baguettes.
SF Sourdough baguettes
SF Sourdough baguettes crumb
These baguettes were made with the same dough I have described in http://www.thefreshloaf.com/node/7446/reinhart039s-san-francisco-sourdough-quotcrust-amp-crumbquot-some-new-variations.
I have been trying various formulas and techniques to make baguettes that have "classic" crust, crumb and taste. This is not them, of course, but I have also wanted to see if the pain de compagne dough, which has such a wonderful taste in a boule, would also make a good baguette. Well, the crumb structure and the taste are essentially identical to the boule. The baguette just has proportionately more crust.
The baguettes were scaled to about 10 oz. I preshaped them according to Hamelman's technique in "Bread," let them rest for 10-15 minutes, then formed the baguettes. I should have let them rest longer. The dough was very elastic. I attempted to be as gentle as possible in handling the dough. I proofed them for about 45-50 minutes only, until they were just swelled a bit, then baked with steam, starting at 500F and reducing the oven to 460F after 10 minutes. The total bake time was 25 minutes. They rested in the turned off oven with the door ajar for 10 minutes more.
The combination of the stingy proofing and the hot oven resulted in enormous oven spring. The bloom practically obliterated my cuts. For this "rustic" baguette, I'm not unhappy with the effect.
A word about how I steamed the oven: Hamelman's suggested method of oven steaming for the home baker was used. The oven was preheated with a pizza stone on the middle shelf and a loaf pan and a cast iron skillet on the bottom shelf. Just before spraying the loaves with water and scoring them, I placed about a cup of ice cubes in the loaf pan. Just after loading the loaves, I poured about a cup of boiling water into the skillet. The door was opened briefly at 10 minutes to remove the loaf pan and skillet. I did not spray water into the oven.

Hi guys
I have a small question.
I bought an Ipasd2 16G Wifi about a week ago for a bargain. A mate of mine has bought it in USA and used it about two weeks before returning to South Africa. Firstly, I need to say that I am not an Apple fan, don't like IOS or OSX. I want to run Win 8 on it. Is it possible to have Win 8 as the sole OS on the machine? If so, how do I do it and what drivers wil I need?
Hope someone can help me.

Of those injured, at least five or six were "trauma victims," the dispatcher said. The accident occurred during the Hiker's Parade at the annual Trail Days festival, which honors the famed Appalachian Trail, in the town near the Virginia-Tennessee border. Dalton Thomson told CNN affiliate WCYB that he was pushed out of the way of the oncoming car by a hiker. "We all looked back. There were hikers on top, hikers under the car," said the boy.

First impression on unpacking the Q702 test unit was the solid feel and clean, minimalist styling.
For work use, Microsoft Word and Excel programs pre-installed on the device are adequate for preparing short documents.
The Fujitsu LifeBook UH574 allowed for great mobility without being obnoxiously heavy or clunky. Its twelve hours of battery life did not disappoint.
The screen was particularly good. It is bright and visible from most angles, however heat is an issue, particularly around the Windows button on the front, and on the back where the battery housing is located.
My first impression after unboxing the Q702 is that it is a nice looking unit. Styling is somewhat minimalist but very effective. The tablet part, once detached, has a nice weight, and no buttons or switches are located in awkward or intrusive positions.

It was 1979, punk rock was just reaching its peak in the Bay Area. The need for a not-for-profit performance space for aspiring Surrealists was absolutely clear.
For eight years in an old storefront on Third Street, Club Foot hosted a wide range of performances – from the heavy hardcore of Black Flag to avant-garde luminaries such as Diamanda Galás. But this was no commercial nightclub. Club Foot proposed that we are all consumers and producers alike, erasing the line between audience and stage. Bands were not booked to simply sell beer. Artists not only ran the show, they may have been living under the stairs. Do-It-Yourself by necessity.
This exhibition offers a rare glimpse into one of the Bay Area's longest running underground venues and unearths many oddities and relics from the private archives of JC Garrett and Cindy Buff. Never before seen in 30 years. Dig it.

Chance to remember Wolves supporters
Wolves have been working with Club Chaplain - Rev. David Wright - to arrange this year's memorial service to remember supporters who are no longer with us.
The service will be held at St. Peter's Collegiate Church in Wolverhampton on Saturday 5th April 2014 at 12:30pm - ahead of Wolves' home fixture versus Peterborough United (Kick off 3pm).
The service will be open to all supporters and fans are being encouraged to wear club colours.
A number of Club representatives will be in attendance.
The Memorial Service was originally introduced in response to hundreds of requests for a pre-match minutes silence or to have fans' ashes scattered at Molineux, which are now not often possible.
This is an alternative way for the club and fans to respect and celebrate the lives of members of the 'Wolves family' who are no longer with us and this year includes great former players as Bert Williams, Peter Broadbent, Barry Stobart and Dave Wagstaffe, all of whom have left us this season.
A straightforward service will be held whereby loved ones can be remembered individually by name or as a group.
Supporters are requested to email names into the Club of loved ones they wish to remember during the service, and will be printed out and handed out on the day - however the service will be open to all. Club Chaplain, Rev. David Wright, said: "This service will give fans the opportunity to remember family and loved ones who have touched their lives, and perhaps with whom they have supported Wolves over the years.
"As we give thanks for the past, we can also value the present and look with hope to the future."
Fans are requested to send in the names of people to be remembered to : email@example.com by 5pm on Thursday, April 3rd.

Second Annual Next SAS-y Lady Contest
Interested in joining the SAS-y Design team? Looking for a way to show off your work? Join us for the Next SAS-y Lady Contest.
The contest will run for 4 weeks, beginning September 1st with a new challenge being announced at the beginning of each week. You can sign up here or ask questions. Our last contest was lots of fun for both the participants and the members. With your help, this year's contest can be even better! http://www.stoneaccentsstudio.com/ne...s-SASyLady.jpg |
Count Me In, this will be a lot of fun and the experience will be invaluable. Can't wait for September now!!
hugs Tracy |
Well this sounds like some fun :), might just try it myself, all experience is good experience, lol.
Acorn Designs
We're a team of 2--Beth and TJ--we'd like to participate.
I want to give it a go. Please count me in. Thanks
I would like to give this a try. Thanks so much.
Jennifer |
Sound interesting. I would really like to try... What are the rules?
~~Waving hello to TJ and Beth~~ :p |
I'm definitely in! Can't wait!~
I spoke to JulieO this afternoon and she's working on a new Q&A that basically takes the old Q&A and adds any questions she received during the last contest. But basically, the contest runs 4 weeks. Each week you will be given a challenge, it might be to design a kit using a specific palette, or a theme. You'll all be given the same amount of time to create the kits, then members will be allowed to download the kits and vote on their favorites. A certain percentage will move on to the next round.
It's a great way to expose your designs to a lot of people. I know I've kept my eye on other sites' contests and contacted designers after the contest was over if I liked their work. |
Thanks for the info Lorri. I did have a browse of the 2007 contest threads to try and get an idea of the format of the contest, your info has helped my curiosity a lot LOL!!
Thanks Tracy |
I'd like to give it a try...count me in.
This sounds like fun please count me in as well.
Thank you:) |
this sounds like it would be a blast,, count me in.Hugs
MoMo |
Sounds great. I would love to give it a hard try :)
I think I want to try it too. I've never really designed anything, but I keep thinking I want to start. Gotta start somewhere, right?
Would be fun to try this, love to see if i can design by theme or color.
Hugs, Aquarius |
Woohoo, this is exciting and I can't wait for the fun to begin! I just wanted to re-emphasize something Lori already mentioned.
Even if you're not the contest winner(s), don't get discouraged because we hired a few designers a few months AFTER the contest ended, when we had a need to add to the staff. So you never know... give it your best - the whole experience is a great way to grow as a designer. Good luck to everyone! |
I can't say for sure right now, as I have to wait closer to the deadline if I can commit or not, but it sounds like fun
All times are GMT -5. The time now is 12:24 PM. |

The movie's visual highlight may be the fun the camera has with the stark, inhuman geometry of the high-rise housing projects through which Billy runs on his way to buy drugs.
All of the film's performances are memorable. Winstone is so convincing as the bullish Raymond that he's genuinely scary to watch, particularly when his character drinks Smirnoff straight from the bottle or beats the hell out of friends and lovers. But a little of him goes a long way. The film might have been more successful -- evoking, for instance, some empathy for these losers' plights -- if the more levelheaded and charismatic Mark, who drops out about midway through the movie, had been given as much screen time as Ray. As it stands it's hard not to side with the women here and dismiss the guys as a bunch of dangerous, drunken creeps who deserve their lot.
Nil By Mouth.
Directed and written by Gary Oldman. Starring Ray Winstone, Kathy Burke, Charlie Creed-Miles, Laila Morse, and Jamie Forman.

It's finally here. The 2013 league year begins at 4:00 p.m. EST today and the last two weeks have been very busy for the Pittsburgh Steelers, who restructured three contracts, issued four restricted tenders, signed cornerback William Gay and guard Ramon Foster to three year deals, and released linebacker James Harrison. That's quite a bit of work, but the work is not done.
Until we get the final numbers in on the Foster contract, I will not go into great detail, but the Steelers are presumably just a couple a million under the $123 million salary cap with just hours to go before the start of the Read more [...]

I had a speaking gig at the London Small Business Center this week. For 3 hours, we discussed blogging and how to set-up a blog using Blogger and how to use social media to attract readers to your blog, something you do very well Stephanie.
Posted by:Well, it's not recent like this week, more like last year, but since we were in the 80s/90s nostalgia mode, I figured I'd mention my lead voice acting as Indiana Jones in the Pendant Productions Original story Podcast of "Indiana Jones and the Well of Life". I play Indy, and it was a 9 chapter Podiobook. Lots of fun - it's on iTunes as well.

I got a most excellent Video Game gig this week - recording next week.
Can't tell you much more than that, but it is uber-awesome!
Whoa, dude?,
I had an excellent adventure this week! I went to the Narrator Track of the Audiobook Publisher's Conference in Los Angeles. It was awesome. Met some great audiobook talent, audiobook producers, and even landed an audiobook!

Rate-equation approach for frequency-modulation mode locking using the moment method
JOSA B, Vol. 22, Issue 12, pp. 2570-2580 (2005)
Enhanced HTML Acrobat PDF (701 KB)
A semianalytic approach based on the moment method is used for investigating pulse evolution in mode-locked lasers in which intracavity dispersive and nonlinear effects play a significant role. Its application to an FM mode-locked laser allows us to perform fast parametric studies while predicting the important pulse parameters. When third-order dispersive effects are negligible, a fully analytic treatment is developed that predicts how cavity parameters affect the final steady state. Our analytic approach also allows us to predict relaxation-oscillation behavior as the pulse approaches its steady state. We use this technique to investigate novel aspects specific to FM mode-locked lasers such as stability of and switching between the multiple steady-state solutions. All results obtained are in excellent agreement with numerical simulations.

Not mine, this is the cheapest I have seen a new Ranco sold for http://www.patriot-supply.com/produc...ETC_111000_000 I am seriously debating pulling the trigger on this one and dont even really need it right now
You can buy them at this price or close to this price at all times at these stores. Sorry to steal your thunder but at least you don't have to feel pressured to buy when you don't need it yet.http://www.etcoutlet.com/products/ra...ller-120-240v/http://www.climatedoctors.com/items/...?itemid=429705 Granted none of these, including the one you posted, is with a power cord. You need to wire a standard extension cord for this. This is relatively easy and there are threads around with clear instructions on how to do this.
I found that same supplier on amazon. I think it's a couple bucks more there. I bought mine from them before Christmas it was only $41 then.
Used the same supplier except on fleabay! Paid 56 shipped last time. before that got it for 40 shipped. Google is your friend here!

Official "Ottawa RedBlacks" Thread Part I: "Embarrassing Logo" Edition
Ottawa Highlanders
Hey guys and gals!
So, it seems that the CFL group plans on holding some sort of contest to name the team. So I guess now's as good a time as ever to start sharing some details of the proposal I have been working on for the past year.
I first met up with local sports historian Jim McAuley around this time last year to discuss finding a name for the CFL franchise. We looked over old photos and such, and talked about the name Rough Riders. One thing that came up was Theodore Roosevelt's elite army called the Rough Riders, and that sparked a research into military themes that would resonate with Ottawa.
During my research, I stumbled upon the Cameron Highlanders of Ottawa. Thought it had a cool sound to it so did more research and found out some pretty interesting stuff:
1. The Camerons Highlanders are Ottawa's official regiment
2. In WWII, they were the first to land at the battle of Normandy
3. During WWII, the Camerons were stationed at Landsdown before taking off for the war. During their time there, they helped out cleaning the Rough Riders locker rooms and got to watch games.
4. The regiment was formed of two battalions, the 1st and the second, with the first being the soldiers leaving for war and the second staying back to recruit and train. Nothing special here but thought there was a bit of a parallel with the actual team and the extensive coaching staff of a football team.
So, Jim and I teamed up with Rocket 57 Illustration to get to work on branding. Our main goal was to demystify the Scottish connotation the name might have and make it clear that it was an hommage to the Cameron Highlanders of Ottawa. The reason being that the Ottawa population might be aware of the reference, but the general public wouldn't. We wanted to keep the brand away from anything too modern looking. So after many iterations of the logo(s), we finally got the look we were looking for.
In february of this year, our team met with the Cameron Highlanders of Ottawa and presented our proposal. They shared stories and provided insights into their history. Turned out that at some point, prior to being called the Camerons, they were actually the Ottawa Highlanders.
So, since then we've been waiting to share our work with the people of Ottawa/Gatineau. I will wait for an official announcement from the team to present the whole thing, but I will share a teaser later on today
Hope you like it!

Creamy Vegan Pasta con Broccoli
Posted Jun 19 2008 12:00am
I don't know if anyone else remembers Rich & Charlie's, an Italian restaurant in the St. Louis area that closed a few years back. In fact, I'm not even entirely sure that there isn't still one of them open somewhere around here, hiding in West County or some other part of St. Louis that I rarely visit. My family used to go there all the time when I was younger. It was considered a treat in my family to go there, not just because of the amazingly good salad (which is a lot like the Pasta House salad, but oh-so-much-better), but also because their sauces were the best we could get anywhere. My favorite was Pasta con Broccoli, and even though you can find this at other Italian restaurants now (again, Pasta House), the version at Rich & Charlie's remains my favorite. I haven't had this kind of pasta in a very long time, given that it's filled with gluten and tons of dairy, but last night I decided to attempt a replication. And here's what I got:
Perhaps it was my starved palate talking, but I think it's pretty close to the real thing. And even if it is a little different, it was still delicious on its own! 1 1/2 cups brown rice pasta shells 2 cups chopped broccoli florets 1 1/2 tbsp. Earth Balance Natural Buttery Spread 1 1/2 tsp. minced garlic 1 1/4 cups mushrooms, chopped 1/2 cup Tofutti "Better than Cream Cheese" (can be purchased at Trader Joe's or Whole Foods) 1/4 cup rice milk (or plain soy, almond, or hemp milk) 1/2 - 1 cup gluten-free tomato sauce, to taste (I used Trader Joe's Organic Tomato Basil Marinara) 1 - 1 1/2 tbsp. Vegan Grated Topping (Parmesan flavor), to taste 1/4 - 3/4 tsp. garlic salt, to taste Pepper to taste Cook the pasta al dente as directed (I boiled mine for about 9 minutes). Drain, rinse with cold water, remove from heat, and cover. While the pasta is cooking, boil another pot of water and add the broccoli florets to the pot. Bring to a boil again, and cook for 4 minutes until it is lightly crunchy. Drain, remove from heat, and cover to retain heat. In a large sautpan, melt the Earth Balance Buttery Spread with the minced garlic, then add the chopped mushrooms. Sautthe mushrooms for 4-7 minutes, then add the cooked broccoli to the pan and stir into the mushrooms. Continue to sautfor about 2 minutes longer. Add the 1/2 cup Tofutti, rice milk, and 1/2 cup of tomato sauce, and let it all melt together. The sauce will appear a little strange at this point and it might look like the Tofutti is separating into unappetizing chunks, but give it a few more minutes and it will melt into a beautiful cream sauce. At this point, taste the sauce and if desired, add more tomato sauce by the spoonful until you reach your own desired balance of flavors. Sprinkle the pepper and garlic salt into the sauce (or if you would prefer less sodium, garlic powder) and again, test to your own taste. Then add the 1 - 1 1/2 tbsp. of Vegan Parmesan Grated Topping. I fiddled around with the taste quite a bit until I found the right balance for me, so feel free to do the same. Let the sauce simmer and thicken for about 5 more minutes until you are happy with the consistency. Add the sauce to the pasta and mix together. Serve immediately, sprinkled with more Parmesan if desired. Makes 2-3 servings.

Scooby-Doo, Where Are You!
Season one
She had a chance to inherit a share of a million dollars from the Sanders estate if she stayed overnight in Sanders' old house, but she was scared off by the Phantom Shadows. It cost her nothing because the money was Confederate and worthless.
- Scooby-Doo, Where Are You!
- 116. A Night of Fright is No Delight (no lines)
- She is always referred to as "Sweet Cousin Maldahyde", even though this is not justified by her expression. The name may be derived from formaldehyde, a common embalming agent.


text: Check some of my posts going back a couple months. I have felt that some private equity group or the equivalent would enter the picture visavis JACK because of the liquidation value of the company longer term. It seems that Blue Harbor literally stole the stock at those low prices in June and July. They have nothing to lose if either 1. encouraging management to sell or spinoff Qdoba and other assets to enhance shareholder value, or, 2. taking a larger stake themselves, or encourage others to do so, pending some sort of offer for the shares in the mid to upper 20s. My speculation has also been that there surely would be a White Knight in the wings at that point because of the obvious value and relatively strong balance sheet of JACK. My hat is off to Blue Harbor management for spotting this obvious winning situation. Best, Big J in L.A.
