- the holographic glitter is gorgeous
- large foil pieces require deliberate placement to look decent
- polish in bottle became thick quickly, as most "quick-dry" polishes do
- some foil pieces are misshapen
- clear base may bubble

Poor amount of both the micro shimmers and the glitters. It doesn't perform well as a topper unless you like to fish for shapes and place each individually. But if you layer 3 - 4 coats its quite pretty on its own.The consistency is very thick but can be successfully thinned with proper thinner as the other reviewer said and this does not affect dry time, which is quick even with the 3 - 4 coats.
Wear is poor - this is a top coat that actually needs a thick top coat to protect itself! If its not coated with a thick layer of top coat the large pieces of glitter stars and moons lift up and catch on things and bits break off leaving weird broken shapes on your nail. Chips and cracks easily on me, I only get 1 - 2 days wear till a couple of big chunks fall off. Then removal is a time-consuming PITA and damages nails. Have to use a heap of strong remover, hold it against each nail for a minute and then scrub hard.

Looks beautiful in the bottle but does not deliver when applied. As others have said its almost impossible to get a decent amount of the larger glitters onto the brush. It also dries to a dull finish. Not a quality glitter polish.

This is a clear polish with fine holo shimmer and large silver stars, moons and diamonds suspended inside. It's just too much work to get the effect. You have to glop it on and push the chunks around with the brush. Looks a lot prettier in the bottle.

I fell in love with this polish in the bottle when I saw it in a local pharmacy, but I didn't buy it on the spot. Instead, I came home and looked up reviews and swatches. Then, when I was later in a different pharmacy and found it on special, I grabbed it.
This is a special effects top coat in a clear base, featuring beautiful, medium-sized silver-iridescent glitter in the shape of crescent moons, five-pointed stars, elongated diamonds, plus a scattering of tiny iridescent glitter filler.
Unfortunately, my experience of it has not been great. Getting any of the bigger pieces of glitter onto the brush and onto my nails was a hassle. On one hand, I got a single moon on each of two fingers, a star on one, two diamonds and a star on the thumb, and on the index finger, I could only manage to get the small, scatter glitter (which is pretty, but nothing as gorgeous as China Glaze Fairy Dust, for example).
I don't know what the problem is or was, to be honest, but in desperation (because it was next to unusable the way it was) I put in a few drops of thinner and gave it a good shake, and then warmed up the bottle and shook it some more and rolled it between my palms to try to loosen up the glitter and improve the viscosity. And, to my surprise, it seems to have helped considerably.
I'm still not thrilled with the consistency of the base, to be honest. It's kind of gloppy, more than for a lot of clear-base glitters. I suppose they used this thicker formula to get decent suspension, but as I was getting horrid suspension to begin with... I don't know. Maybe the bottle was settled, or too cold, or something, but it's usable now, anyway.
AND... it's really pretty, and quite different. The iridescent glitter is really eye-catching. This looks amazing over dark blue or purple, and while I haven't tried it yet, I think it would also look really beautiful over white polish.
If you've got the "can't get glitter on the brush" problem, I definitely recommend trying a few drops of polish thinner (NOT acetone or nail polish remover! You need proper nail lacquer thinner, and most major brands have one, so there are plenty from which to choose. I used Orly Nail Lacquer thinner because it's what I had handy.). Also make sure the bottle is warmed (carry it around in your pocket or your bra for a while, or put it in a cup of warm water for a little while), and then roll it horizontally between your palms for a while (to get the little mixer beads to skim along the inner walls of the bottle), and shake it. Then, let it sit for a while to settle the new formula, and try it. I've had to do this with a few glitter polishes in my day, and it's a hassle, but it usually works.
Good luck if you want to try this. If you get a good bottle, it's definitely worth it. It is an exceptionally cool polish. I knocked off lippies because, frankly, I have better things to do with my time than find a way to get a brand new product that should work, to work.

This is a glitter polish containing shapes of diamonds, moons, and stars, as well as tiny sprinkles of holographic glitter in a clear base. Looks good in the bottle, but it's a nightmare to use. Pretty well zero glitter payoff. I had to fish out each of the bigger shapes from the bottle using a cotton bud. A real nuisance, and the effect wasn't even that great. Also, I had to tap down the pieces because the edges lifted up on almost every one. Ridiculous. There are many better glitters out there, so I'd definitely say skip this one.

Celestial FX is an adorable glitter polish I couldn't resist. It has small holo glitters and three shapes (stars, moons, and diamonds) in a clear base. The shapes came out rather easily, to my delight, with minimal fishing involved. Because the base is clear, it can be layered over your favorite polish for a little extra sparkle.

Stephen King's 10 best list
Entertainment Weekly asked Stephen King to name his favorite 2008 books. If you imagine that you can guess what would appeal to Stephen King you're probably wrong.
Here's what King told EW he enjoyed reading most this year:
1. The novels of Robert Goddard
I discovered Goddard, a British mystery/suspense novelist, last year, almost by accident. In Pale Battalions, his second novel, was the first book I read on my new Kindle. Since then I've read eight more and have about seven to go. I'll parcel them out, because they're too good to gulp. There are missing heirs, stolen fortunes, mistaken identities, raffish con men, hot sex, and cold-blooded murder. These books have more twists than a box of macaroni, all rendered in Goddard's clear-eyed prose. You discover a guy who's doing work on such a high level, and the disturbing question occurs: Who else have I missed that's this good?
2. The Garden of Last Days, Andre Dubus III
I've written about this before, so I won't belabor you with the details. Just know this: It's terrifying, unputdownable, and the best novel so far about 9/11.
3. When Will There Be Good News?, Kate Atkinson
The third, the best, and hopefully not the last Atkinson novel featuring private eye Jackson Brodie. There's a train crash, a smart and plucky teenage girl named Reggie, a missing lady doc...but the plot defies description, and I'd be a hound to even try. As a reader, I was charmed. As a novelist, I was staggered by Atkinson's narrative wizardry. You can't believe all the tangled threads are going to come together, but they do — and Atkinson makes it look easy. Dear reader, easy it is not.
4. The Tenderness of Wolves, Stef Penney
A search for a boy missing in the chilly Canadian wilderness of 150 years ago, a love story, a historical mystery. All told in lyrical, marvelously readable prose. If you liked Life of Pi and The Secret Life of Bees, this is for you.

Early spring means early rhubarb&
Spring has sprung, and so has our rhubarb plants!
Did you know that rhubarb is not a fruit - its a vegetable! Most vegetables are annuals, but not rhubarb. With a little attention - like watering and an occasional dollop of fertilizer - rhubarb will keep providing a harvest until frost. And very few insects feed on rhubarb, so pests arent a problem.

All Critics (2) | Fresh (1) | Rotten (1)
A short, sharp shock of downbeat but compelling apocalypse fiction.
High-concept Hell leans toward stranger-danger slasher horror and amounts to little more than sinister mountain-men hell-bent on killing along the lines of a Wrong Turn movie by way of House of 1000 Corpses.
Audience Reviews for Hell
Decent German post-apocalyptic thriller that set in a world where temperatures have risen and even middle Europe has dried out. As a small group of survivors try to make their way to the supposedly wetter mountains they have to deal with hostile locals. The atmosphere, cinematography and acting is great, but the really convincing first half doesn't entirely go anywhere. There are moments of real tension and even horror, but once it ends you feel they could have done even more with the premise. Still, worth checking out.
MoreSuper Reviewer
An interesting concept with a successful first half that sadly falls back on staples of too many horror films; escapes from captors, chases in woods, and rites-of-passage. The film remains visually interesting and is well enough acted to make it worth a watch.
MoreSuper Reviewer
Hell is a story about a post apocalyptic world, where the sun has became the worst enemy of mankind, making earth uninhabitable with it's intense flare. Survivors attempt to find a rumored place where there is water, but before they can reach it, real survival has just began. The film was interesting, it had an inventive premise, the first half of the film looked extremely realistic, not just with the atmosphere and set, but with the human interactions. But then it soon fell into the pitfall of cliche horror film, much like frontiers.
MoreSuper Reviewer
What starts out as a very interesting, with a great pacing post-apocalyptic thriller � l� The Road quickly shifts gear by the 45min mark onto just straight thriller/horror which is it's biggest setback because the movie stalls and turns into just another "let's escape these evil-doers" kind of movie.
The character interactions were great at first and felt realistic enough for the situations at hand. The acting was overall pretty good and the cinematography and directing was top notch with such a small budget but such a shame it shifted gears towards the end.
Borrows a bit too much from The Road but lacks the intimacy and amazingly grim mood the aformentioned created.

Wisconsin State Incentives
DAIRY 2020 INITIATIVE: Includes two programs to help dairy producers make improvements and increase production.
- The Dairy 2020 Early Planning Grant (EPG) program helps encourage and stimulate the start up, modernization and expansion of Wisconsin dairy farms. It provides grants to dairy producers to pay for professional services such as the preparation of a business plan. The award can be for up to 75 percent of the professional services with a maximum grant of $3,000.
- The Milk Volume Production program allows dairy producers who plan to increase milk production by expanding their dairy herds to obtain equity gap financing.
FOCUS ON ENERGY: Offers financial incentives to eligible Wisconsin business for installing qualifying energy efficiency and renewable energy measures such as energy efficient lighting, compressed air, HVAC equipment and residential solar energy systems. It also includes custom projects such as system or building upgrades or process improvements. Focus information, resources and financial incentives help implement projects that otherwise would not be completed, or to complete projects sooner than scheduled. Its efforts help businesses manage rising energy costs, promote in-state economic development, protect the environment and control the state's growing demand for electricity and natural gas.
COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT BLOCK GRANT FOR ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT REVOLVING LOAN FUND (CDBG-ED/RLF): Funded through the federal Small Cities CDBG Program, provides grants to communities to promote local job creation and retention. Local governments then lend the funds to businesses for start-up, retention and expansion projects through grant funding. Funding levels depend on the number of jobs to be created or retained.
BUSINESS EMPLOYEES' PROGRAM (BEST): Established by the Wisconsin Legislature to help small businesses in industries that are facing severe labor shortages upgrade the skills of their workforce. Under the BEST program, Commerce can provide applicants with a tuition reimbursement grant to help cover a portion of the costs associated with training employees. Eligible applicants include for-profit businesses that have 25 or fewer full time employees or annual sales of less than $2.5 million and are in one of the following Industrial Clusters: Automation, Agriculture/Food Products, Biotechnology, Information Technology, Manufacturing, Medical Devices, Paper/Forest Products, Printing, Tourism, or Childcare (does not include in-home childcare).
CUSTOMIZED LABOR TRAINING FUND: Provides training grants to businesses that are implementing new technology or production processes. The program can provide up to 50 percent of the cost of customized training if it is not available from the Wisconsin Technical College System. The program's primary goal is to help Wisconsin manufacturers maintain a workforce that is on the cutting edge of technological innovation.
EARLY PLANNING GRANT PROGRAM (EPG): Helps individual entrepreneurs and small businesses throughout Wisconsin obtain the professional services necessary to evaluate the feasibility of a proposed start up or expansion. It provides grants to entrepreneurs and small businesses to help offset a portion of the cost of hiring an independent third party to develop a comprehensive business plan.
ENTERPRISE DEVELOPMENT ZONE PROGRAM: Promotes a business start-up or expansion on a particular site in any area of the state that suffers from high unemployment, declining income and property values and other indicators of economic distress. The program offers tax credits for such activities as hiring disadvantaged workers and undertaking environmental remediation. Tax credits can be taken only on income generated by business activity in the zone. The maximum amount of tax credits per zone is $3 million.
TAX INCREMENT FINANCING (TIF): Helps cities in Wisconsin attract industrial and commercial growth in underdeveloped and blighted areas. A city or village can designate a specific area within its boundaries as a TIF district and develop a plan to improve its property values. Taxes generated by the increased property values pay for land acquisition or needed public works.
INDUSTRIAL REVENUE BONDS (IRBs): A means of financing the constructing and equipping of manufacturing plants and a limited number of non-manufacturing facilities. The municipality is not responsible for debt service on IRBs, nor is it liable in the case of default. IRBs are also exempt from federal income tax. More than $265 million is available to assist small manufacturers with expansion projects through low-interest financing. The Department of Commerce grants the bonding authority (volume cap allocation) to cities, villages, counties and towns to issue the bonds on behalf of a business. This site provides business representatives, municipal officials, bond counsel and others with up-to-date information on the IRB program, the process of applying for volume cap, the availability of volume cap and the latest forms.
RURAL ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT (RED) PROGRAM: Makes individual awards up to $30,000 for feasibility studies and other professional assistance to rural businesses with fewer than 25 employees. Businesses that have completed their feasibility evaluations are eligible for individual micro loans up to $25,000 for working capital and the purchase of equipment.
TECHNOLOGY DEVELOPMENT FUND: Established to help Wisconsin businesses research and develop technological innovations that have the potential to provide significant economic benefit to the state, it helps businesses finance Phase I product development research. Firms completing Phase I projects can receive Phase II product-commercialization funding.
WISCONSIN TRANSPORTATION FACILITIES ECONOMIC ASSISTANCE AND DEVELOPMENT PROGRAM: Funds transportation facilities improvements that are part of an economic development project. It provides 50 percent state grants to governing bodies, private businesses and consortiums for road, rail, harbor and airport projects that help attract employers to Wisconsin, or encourage business and industry to remain and expand in the state.
ANGEL INVESTMENT TAX CREDIT: Angel investors and angel investor networks that invest in Qualified New Business Ventures may be eligible to claim an income tax credit on that investment, up to 25 percent of the investment amount. Angel investors are accredited (sophisticated) investors, for the purposes of this program, as determined by the Department of Commerce, whose cash investment in a Qualified New Business Venture is made in exchange for common stock, a partnership or membership interest, preferred stock or an equivalent ownership interest that is acceptable to Commerce. An angel investment network is a group of accredited (sophisticated) investors organized for the sole purpose of investing in a single Qualified New Business Venture.
EARLY STAGE SEED INVESTMENT CREDIT: Designed to encourage investment in small, high-technology businesses that have high growth potential and is for payments made to certified fund managers to invest in qualified new business ventures.
Wisconsin's FILM TAX CREDIT PROGRAM provides two types of tax credits with a total of $500,000 in credits available each fiscal year. All credits are refundable and non-transferable:
- FILM PRODUCTION SERVICES CREDIT: Provides tax credits for hiring Wisconsin residents to work on an accredited production, and also for incurring certain production expenditures. To qualify, the production must be pre-accredited by the department.
- FILM PRODUCTION COMPANY INVESTMENT CREDIT: Provides tax credits to new and existing film production companies in Wisconsin that expand.
WISCONSIN MEAT PROCESSING FACILTY INVESTMENT CREDIT: A refundable tax credit for taxpayers who have invested to modernize or expand meat processing facilities in the state during taxable years that begin after December 31, 2008, and before January 1, 2017. Businesses engaged in processing livestock into meat products or processing meat products for sale commercially may be eligible to apply for the tax credits. "Livestock" means domesticated food animals, other than fish and wild game animals. "Meat product" means a value-added, saleable and edible stand-alone product resulting from processing meat or another meat product by a USDA- or state-inspected facility and does not include sandwiches, spreads, appetizers, soups, salads, dinners, pizzas, pasties or any other product that uses meat in any manner other than as the predominant ingredient. "Process" means to cut, grind, manufacture, compound, intermix or prepare meat or meat products for human consumption.
FOOD PROCESSING PLANT & FOOD WAREHOUSE INVESTMENT CREDIT: A refundable tax credit for businesses that have invested to modernize or expand food processing plants or food warehouses in Wisconsin.
"Used exclusively" means used to the exclusion of all other uses except for use not exceeding 5 percent of total use. Businesses can earn up to 10 percent of the eligible expenses spent in the taxable year with the maximum amount a claimant can receive over the life of the program being $200,000. The Department has $700,000 for each fiscal year. The Department may prorate some or all of the allocations in order to broaden the potential for promoting economic development.
DAIRY MANUFACTURING FACILTY INVESTMENT CREDIT: Provides refundable credits for businesses that have invested to modernize or expand dairy manufacturing facilities in Wisconsin. Businesses can earn up to 10 percent of the amount spent in a taxable year. The maximum lifetime amount a business can receive is $200,000 for each of the entity's manufacturing facilities. The Department has $657,100 available annually for eligible businesses other than dairy cooperatives. A total of $700,000 is available annually for dairy cooperatives. Businesses that are engaged in the processing of milk into dairy products or processing dairy products for sale commercially are eligible to apply for tax credits under this program.

Businesses can earn up to 10 percent of the eligible expenses with the maximum amount a claimant can receive over the life of the program being $100,000. The Department has $900,000 for each fiscal year. The Department shall allocate $450,000 in tax credits to businesses that individually have no more than $5,000,000 in gross receipts from doing business in Wisconsin for the taxable year in which the credit is claimed.
The MINORITY BUSINESS DEVELOPMENT PROGRAM: Designed to generate and foster the growth of minority businesses in Wisconsin. The WEDC provides services to minority business owners, entrepreneurs and resource organizations.

Boko Haram it would appear have plumbed new depths. This time (thank the Gods!) not of depravity but of idiocy.
Yes, they decided to disguise themselves as ladies but without shaving their big, thick, I'm a Jihadi me beards. So they got scrobbled by the Nigerian Army. It also didn't help they rolled into town in motors adorned with the flag of ISIS. Judging by this piccy they looked like Bernard Bresslaw in Carry on up the Kyber.
Yup, it makes Baldrick's cunning plans seem like works of genius.
I don't know whether to laugh or cry. The World is fighting unspeakable evil and unspeakable stupidity.
The whole story is here. Not that I exactly trust the Dear Old Mail and not on military stories and certainly not with the primary source being the Nigerian military. I certainly don't believe the stuff about bombing in the woods.

Many locations saw some much needed rainfall today. Those showers will even continue tonight, though they will be more isolated in nature. Today, the highest recorded rainfall amounts have been along the coast, with Brookings surpassing one inch already. Locations along the Cascades have also seen around a quarter of an inch, with lower amount elsewhere.
The bulk of the moisture and energy that brought the showers will exit the region overnight, but a few isolated showers are possible still for Thursday. The best chance for rain will be along the coast and in the mountains. As we approach the weekend on Friday, isolated showers are still possible in the mountains and on the coast, but another warm up is on the way for next week.
As the weekend unfolds, clouds will start to clear the area. All locations will see at least mostly sunny skies by Sunday. That's due to another ridge of high pressure building into the Northwest. Not only will this ridge bring back the sunshine we are accustomed to in early July, but the heat will return as well. Upper 90's are in the works for the valley and northern California, with the basin seeing upper 80's.

Creating Smart Print Queues
In the December 1999 issue of Linux Journal, Michael Hughes introduced a few basics for setting up printing on your Linux computer. This article will go into greater detail on getting your print installation to work for a variety of printers. The biggest problem is that most applications, especially the graphics-based ones that run under X, print using the PostScript printer language, and most of us do not have a PostScript printer.
I'm basically lazy—I want my computer to make things easier for me. What's a computer for if not to automate tasks and simplify my life? It didn't take me long to become frustrated with having to deal with printing plaintext files vs. PostScript files from Netscape or other applications. So I wrote a printer filter to take care of these decisions for me, and you can, too. The BSD print system that comes with your Linux distribution has the capability to pipe print files through a filter, which can be any executable program. Since the filters usually have a simple job to do, they are normally written as a bash or Perl script.
The printer daemon sends the file to be printed to the standard input of the filter, and the filter modifies the file as needed. The filter can then write the modified file to standard output, which the print system sends on to the printer. Your filter can make any kind of modification to the file, and you don't even have to write the modified file to standard output, as we shall see later.
Specific printer capabilities are defined in the /etc/printcap file, which is normally created when Linux is installed. Each printer or printer configuration that you use must be defined in this file. The printers can be attached locally, attached to another computer on your network or to network printers. You can set up multiple configurations for the same printer to handle different file types, and the print system can send output to other devices or save it to a file. Virtually anything that can accept a computer file is fair game for the output device.
Each printer configuration in your printcap file defines a print queue. You print something from the command line with the lpr command or through a print button or menu in various applications. UNIX and Linux applications use the lpr command to make the actual print request by using the line-printer daemon, lpd, which spawns a copy of itself to handle each print request. lpd is the main program and runs continuously in the background to handle all requests from lpr, lpq (for querying print job and printer status) and lprm (to remove jobs from the print queue).
Listing 1 is a typical printcap entry that defines a printer attached to your parallel printer port. Comments in the file start with a hash (#) character. Each entry defines a printer queue and consists of a series of fields delimited with the colon (:) character. The first field of the entry supplies one or more names for the print queue, separated by the pipe (|) character. You should include "lp" as the name of one of your print queues, since it will be the default queue when you print without specifying a queue. The last sub-field of this first field should contain a description of this print queue and may be displayed by some print management software. I gave this queue an alias of "text" so that the print command could be either lpr filename or lpr -Ptext filename.
For readability, I usually place each field on a separate line, with the backslash escape character at the end of each line except the last one. But you don't have to. It is traditional to place extra colons at the beginning and end of each field when they are given on separate lines, as in this example, with all continuation lines indented by a tab. The extra colons are ignored by lpd when it reads this file.
The fields after the first one tell lpd the properties for this queue. Each of these subsequent fields begins with a keyword, an equal (=) sign for text values or a hash (#) sign for numeric values, and the value for the field. Some keywords are switches and do not have values. In Listing 1, the second keyword, "lp", defines the device to which the output will be sent. In this case, /dev/lp should be a symbolic link to /dev/lp0 or /dev/lp1 for your printer port. Don't confuse this field name with the default print queue name in the first field. The order of the fields does not matter, except for the first field that names the queue.
The lf keyword specifies the full path to the log file, where errors from the print daemon concerning this queue can be recorded. When something goes wrong, the contents of this file may give you a clue to the problem, although many print-related error messages will be sent to your system log, /var/log/messages. The sb boolean keyword tells lpd to print a short one-line "banner". Finally, sd, the spool directory keyword, lets you specify the directory path in which to place a temporary copy of the file being printed. You must specify a spool directory for each print queue. Other controlling information for the queue and each print job is also placed in this directory, so each queue in your printcap file needs to have its own spool directory.
These are the most common of the many available parameters. The printcap man page lists all the parameters that can be used to configure your print queue entries.
As Linux continues to play an ever increasing role in corporate data centers and institutions, ensuring the integrity and protection of these systems must be a priority. With 60% of the world's websites and an increasing share of organization's mission-critical workloads running on Linux, failing to stop malware and other advanced threats on Linux can increasingly impact an organization's reputation and bottom line.

Most companies incorporate backup procedures for critical data, which can be restored quickly if a loss occurs. However, fewer companies are prepared for catastrophic system failures, in which they lose all data, the entire operating system, applications, settings, patches and more, reducing their system(s) to "bare metal." After all, before data can be restored to a system, there must be a system to restore it to.
In this one hour webinar, learn how to enhance your existing backup strategies for better disaster recovery preparedness using Storix System Backup Administrator (SBAdmin), a highly flexible bare-metal recovery solution for UNIX and Linux systems.

Newton-Conover's 2010 Catawba Valley Classic title defense started where it ended last season — with a victory over Fred T. Foard.
The Lady Red Devils used strong defense to defeat the Lady Tigers, 66-34, for the first time since their championship meeting at the Classic one year ago.
"I thought in the first half, we were still in our Christmas mode," said N-C coach Ike Williams. "I think we overindulged in food and gifts. We talked about it at halftime and we stepped it up. I'm happy for a win."
Hickory kicked off its "drive for five" on Tuesday with an impressive 63-39 victory against Bunker Hill in the second game of the boys bracket at the Catawba Valley Classic.
The Red Tornadoes meet the winner of Newton-Conover and St. Stephens tonight at 9 p.m., with the winner heading to Thursday's boys championship game.
The results from the Newton-Conover versus St. Stephens game were not available as of press time.
Other boys scores Alexander Central 58, Maiden 44 South Caldwell 51, Fred T. Foard 46 St. Stephens 54, Newton-Conover 44
Girls bracket
CHARLOTTE — Panthers center Ryan Kalil and receiver Steve Smith were selected to the NFC Pro Bowl team Tuesday night, but sensational rookie quarterback Cam Newton wasn't.
Aaron Rodgers, Drew Brees and Eli Manning were the three NFC quarterbacks who made the Pro Bowl ahead of Newton.
Manning threw for 26 touchdowns and ran for one, while Newton combined for 34 touchdowns — 20 passing and 14 rushing. Newton was selected as a first alternate and will play in the game if any of the three quarterbacks ahead of him make it to the Super Bowl.
CHARLOTTE — Charlotte Bobcats coach Paul Silas floated the idea last week of playing point guards D.J. Augustin and Kemba Walker at the same time once they got comfortable with each other, even though it might put his team at a big size disadvantage.
Apparently they're comfortable.
When crunch time arrived Monday night both were on the floor. Augustin scored 19 points, Walker added 13, including two free throws with 9.9 seconds remaining, as the Bobcats erased a 14-point second half deficit to beat the Milwaukee Bucks 96-95 in their season opener.

The First Al Fresco Dinner Of 2014 Thread
Most of the country is emerging up from a winter to remember, getting ready to greet Easter, and some lucky folks are even dining al fresco again. You've cleaned off the patio, uncovered the furniture, the plants are green and some flowers are budding, it is warm enough for shirtsleeves, and sangria, grill, firepit, and other summer treats are calling.
I want to start this thread for posts and pictures of your first outdoors dinner of the year.
Those of you in Southern California and Florida - yes, you are welcome to participate too, just try to minimize the gloating along with the photo datestamps that say 1/20/2014 . . .
Yes it was a beautiful weekend in the Catskill Mnts.
Clear skies and hot. 75, t-shirt weather. No foliage, no shade!
We tapped our maple trees and smoked two organic chickens and two pork tips.
Potato packet and artichokes wrapped tight using the wood fired smoker heat...
(did not want smoked veggies)
Planted a few varieties of beets, chards and kales, arugula and glacier salad.
Forgot to pic our meal, but we did collect 15 gallons of maple water in 24hrs...
Still snow on the mountains but nice to see spring!
- i cut the artichokes in half, cut side down in a small roaster pan, (looks like something from a toaster oven),
with a couple cups of water and wrapped the whole thing in thick alum foil.
-10 taps, 4 big maple trees.
-made stock from the chickens and now have easy meals for a few days...and stock in the freezer.
Happy spring.
hmmm.... I would post an al fresco dining photo but it SNOWED again today in Chicago. That's right. more. freaking. snow.
Sleeven your weekend sounds lovely I will have to live vicariously through other's photos because the way our weather is going it doesn't look good for outdoor anything at all this week. Colder weather or rain until at least Sunday and I am too afraid to even look to see what they are predicting for next week.
Melissa, it snowed here today too. Plus the county has a flash flood warning, 100,000+ people are without power because of the weekends 90MPH straight line winds, and there's an evacuation order for anyone living below the hydroelectric dam here because we got 3 inches of rain over the weekend in some spots.
Nope, no al fresco meals here yet. But they'll be coming along soon. Or eventually, at least!
Yes, winter reared its ugly head hear again last night. I returned to the Dallas area last night from Tahlequah, where it's 25 degrees now, even though the dogwoods and redbuds are in full bloom (I hope the blossoms are not lost) to bring in all the houseplants that had been living outside for a couple of weeks. Here in the part of the metroplex I live in, it's not below freezing, but it's close enough.
Nope, Al fresco dining will have to wait a few more days.
The DH & I had weenies & beans this weekend. The hot dogs were grilled out on the grill. Not much to take a picture of though. It was in the 70's this weekend. So far today the temperature has dropped 30 degrees with the promise of snow later on.
What I need to ask is, don't other people shovel a path through the snow to get to their grill during the winter?
Here in Portland, Saturday was pretty nice with high 60F and mostly sunny. I joined a group for a 30 mile bike ride through the west hills.
Sunday was beautiful with high 65F-ish and sunny. I slaved in the yard, pulling weeds, clearing ivy, pressure-washing scum off the patio, uncovering furniture, and started repairing some of it. My knees hurt afterwards - I'm fit for cycling but not for anything else, apparently - and I'm still taking Motrin today.
We did have friends over and ate dinner on the patio. I didn't think to take pictures - I was so tired after the day of yardwork that I just threw together some dishes I've made recently and didn't have to think about much. We had chicken marbella (a dish I am still trying to get right); another salad of roast sweet potato, roast sweetened pears, vinegared onions, blueberry balsamic vinegar sauce; and cute little shell pasta with a mushroom sauce. SWMBO made hummus and our friend brought a tuxedo cake.
I'm not calling that an official al fresco dinner since we had planned to eat indoors, and only went outside because the dining room was too messy.
it is cloudy and cool this week. But hopefully there will be a real al fresco dinner soon. I'm surprised to hear how many of you are still seeing snow/cold. I had thought spring had truly sprung.
Here's a taco salad from January 21 - and so it is one day past your date of Jan 20. I photographed the salad separately from the table, but they are both from Jan 21. We had an unusually warm January and would be happier if we had more rain. I eat most of my lunches at this table in the pergola and watch the hummingbirds. We have Allen's hummingbirds that stay here all year and try to drive off all other hummers, but I did get to see an Anna's one day at lunch. Annas are more common than Allen's, but the Allen's are just what we happen to have here.
I've started collecting trays to carry food from the kitchen to the pergola, and I now have three trays - none of which match, and so I am planning to go back to Pier One and get a fourth tray, to match one that I already have. I used to use chopping boards for carrying food outside, but the trays are much more practical. Last month I bought some new outdoor placemats when we were in Palm Springs, and I have been enjoying those. I also bought matching coasters, and will photograph those when I have some interesting food to take a picture of. Normally I leave my camera at work when I go home for lunch.
Strange to hear that it is cold in Texas - I had always thought of April as a summer month and often too hot for eating outside, but then I was in Austin or Houston, which are pretty far south from Dallas.
Still a little too cold here too in the San Francisco Bay Area to be eating al fresco, although you can manage it in the mid-afternoon if you've got a space sheltered from the wind, which is bringing the fog in and out every day.
Like publickman, it actually was warmer here in January. I was watering the garden because we hadn't had rain in 3 months!
My idea of al fresco, I admit, is dining at a restaurant outdoors. Our best al fresco meal in 2013 was at Etoile at the Domaine Chandon winery in Yountville (north of Napa), just before Memorial Day. Perfect temps, no wind, and Chef Perry Hoffman's updated French haute cuisine was to die for! Totally swoon-worthy, yum yum!
We dined with friends at Bravas Tapas in Healdsburg, on the Sonoma side of the wine country, last month (March). It was foggy in the morning but warmed up just enough that we could sit out on the patio. Bravas is NOT the best tapas restaurant in the SF Bay Area, but it is very good and their patio is delightful, with excellent service. We did both a dry and sweet sherry tasting (flight of three each) with our meal.
Foodies might enjoy a look at Bravas' menu, which is linked below.
Here is a link that might be useful: Bravas Spanish tapas, Healdsburg, CA (Sonoma County)
Like Lars and Jkom, our weather has been beautiful-- too beautiful and not enough rain.
We have enjoyed a few meals al fresco. Not many dinners outside, but we hosted friends for brunch a couple weeks in a row. We don't have to entertain- DH has always loved sitting at the patio table for breakfast whenever time allows.
We also have a hummingbird feeder (and added another on Sunday) as well as a feeder for the yellow finches filled with niger seed. The bird action is in a group of birch trees adjacent to the kitchen window and the table thereby providing endless amounts of entertainment.
With our recent garden reno we added a DCS bbq and sideburner in a built in island. I'm using the grill, but am struggling to figure out the right combination of temperature and burners to make it turn out perfectly.
For example tonight's dinner was grass fed top sirloin from the Ralphs/ Kroger store that just opened. I whipped up some kebabs and didn't marinate them for even 30 min. Bad move-- this beef wasn't all that tender and the heat from the grill was enormous... suffice it to say that DH had grilled veggies and Passover brisket, part deux!
I will master the new grill, however in the meantime, our warm weather beckons us to set the patio table!
Brrrrr, Sleevendog!
Lars, this cold snap was quite unusual, and set some records for parts close by. The northern parts of the metroplex had freezes Monday night/Tuesday morning, the latex freezes on record. Lots of people were out covering their tomatoes and other summer veggies. My brother in Houston said it was supposed to get down into the upper 30's even there.
We haven't been able to dine al fresco even in the good weather, as it's rained on our days off each weekend, it seems. Not that I'm complaining - in Texas, any rain is welcome.

Founded in 2006 and entering our ninth season, the Wisconsin Elite Hockey League (WEHL) has continued to evolve providing upper level high school players the opportunity to further develop skills and compete in a league with like talented players.
The goals of the WEHL are clear:
The WEHL coaching staffs are directed and understand the objective of developing players in a competitive and learning environment.
To complement the excellent coaching, competitive practices and league play, the WEHL provides exposure to its players with age group specific invitational tournaments, which includes all WEHL teams along with top level Tier II teams from throughout the country, and an opportunity for returning U18 age players to be selected to participate in a spring Elite Exposure Tournament.
Additionally, the WEHL Board of Directors and coaches are in constant contact with the U-14, 16 and 18 Team Wisconsin representatives providing them with information on potential players for their teams.
Having a before and after season format allows the WEHL to complement, not compete, for players at the youth hockey or high school level.
So, if you are a Wisconsin youth or high school player who wants to take your game to the next level, the WEHL is just the place to take that next step!
The Wisconsin Elite Hockey League was formed in cooperation with the Wisconsin Amateur Hockey Association in 2006 to assist in the development of Wisconsin high school hockey players. The WEHL provides high quality coaching, practices, and games to prepare more than 600 high school hockey players each year for the WIAA and WAHA seasons.

This reminds me of a story I read a while ago:
LP: Catastrophic Failure of Semiautomatic Handguns
Catastrophic Failure of Semiautomatic Handguns VERY important information regarding your auto loading pistols:
Catastrophic Failure of Semiautomatic Handguns
The following bulletin was received from the New Jersey State Police - Officer Safety Division
Date: February 23, 2007
Continuous reloading an chambering of the same round may cause catastrophic failure in semiautomatic handguns.
The Security Force at the Los Alamos National Laboratory in Los Alamos, New Mexico, recently reported on the catastrophic failure of a semiautomatic handgun when it was fired. The internal explosion caused the frame to break while the slide and barrel separated from the weapon and traveled down range. No one was injured in the incident. An investigation revealed that security personnel were repeatedly charging the same round of ammunition into the chamber.
Technical personnel at Glock Inc. advise that repeated chambering of the same round may cause the bullet to move deeper in the casing, further compacting the propellant. When a normal cartridge is fired, the firing pin hits the primer, igniting the propellant. When the propellant burns, the gas pressure drives the bullet out of the case and down the barrel. However, if the propellant has been compact, the pressure may increase beyond the gun's maximum specifications, causing the weapon to break apart.
Sigarms Inc's personnel confirm that reloading the same round five or six times will cause the problems, noting that reloading the same round even once will void their warranty.
Both manufacturers stress that the problem is not with the gun, but with chambering the same round repeatedly. The NJ Regional Operations Intelligence Center urges all law enforcement officers not to chamber the same round when loading their weapons.
***For example, when you clean your weapon, most of us drop the magazine and then pull the slide back thereby ejecting the round in the barrel.
After cleaning the weapon many of us will return the "same" round to the barrel that we initially extracted. Each time the slide slams forward on that same round it seats it deeper into the cartridge. Apparently, by seating the round deeper into the cartridge, it creates greater pressure when the round is intentionally detonated by a firing pin strike and is causing weapons to explode.

Analog-A-Go-Go is back and better than ever! Our annual vinyl swap and cask beer fest is going down June 13-14 at both our brewery and brewpub in coastal Delaware. At the top of the bill is Bob Mould, best know as the singer, songwriter and guitarist for the '80s rock band Hüsker Dü. Mould, who NPR calls "one of the great heros of American indie rock," will be playing a free show Friday night at our Rehoboth Beach pub.
Here at Dogfish head, we're known for brewing with nontraditional ingredients like figs, pears, brown sugar and grapes. Since we opened in 1995, we've mined the entire culinary landscape for beers, but there's one ingredient that anchors everything we do: water.
Since last summer, when we announced that Dogfish was headed back to the four states we pulled out of in 2011, we've been grateful for all of the anticipation, kind words and patience from the craft beer community.
The grand finale of our seasonal Beer Dinner Series promises to be one of the best yet. This time around, the theme is Small-Batch. That's what we call the experimental beers we brew on our pilot system in the Rehoboth brewpub.
It's Aprihop season, and to celebrate the old in-like-a-lion, we've compiled some tracks to accompany the days when the sun finally comes out to stay. When it brings on the warmth, makes everything feel right and tempts us to just be out in it.
