Amherst with only tour of last year's men on the line-up were »ble to baffle their opponents in all stages of the game. LaGrange came to Amherst with a heavy team, expecting to trounce the local boys by a large score. Several old grid stars who were st the game stated thut LaGrange outweighed the locals by over ten pounds to the man, which gave them greater chances for a victory. It appeared that their excess weight was Invaluable as Amherst's backfleld was* able to penetrate their line without any difficulty. End runs and forward passes were also special features of the game. Amherst made gains of 10 and 16 yards around LaGrange's ends, which netted three touchdowns tor Amherst. Taking Into consideration that Amherst practically lost their whole line last year, this year's new men played a fast and snappy fame of hall, qut- playing their opponents In all plays. Coon, playing center for Amherst, was in every play, making holes for Amherst's backfleld with ease. When on the offensive, he broke up nearly all ot LaGrange's line plunges. The Wilford brothers on ends, played an excellent game, breaking up end runs with unusual ability. Leimbach, Abersold and Hahn at tackles played a great defensive game, in that they were able to get their opponents out of reach on all of Amherst's line plunges. Amherst's backfleH Is the same as last year with the exception of Hearn, who graduated last year. T. Neumeis- terf who is taking his place this year, played the game as If he were an old veteran at the game, making large gains through the line and also around the ends. The game opened with Amherst kicking to LaGrange. LaGrange was unable to penetrate Amherst's line and lost the ball after four downs. Amherst took possession of the ball and made great headway. They were, however, obliged to punt after eight downs which gave LaGrange the ball again. They failed to make any headway and punted to Amherst on the thirty-yard line. Amherst received the punt and took it to the fifty-yard line and with ten more plays, L. Neumelster took the ball across the line for the first touch-down. T. Neumelster kicked goal, making the score 7-0. The second quarter was very much the same as the first, Monger making the second touch-down on a line plunge. T. Neumelster failed to kick goal. L. NeUmelster scored again in the third quarter on an end run and T. Neumelster kicked goal, making the score 20-0 in Amherst's favor. LaGrange put in two new men in the last quarter but was of little use as L. Neumelster took the ball across again for Amherst's fourth and last touch-down. A large crowd attended the game and prospects for a successful sessop are goo<Ly**An effort is being made to Improve the high school's new field at the end of Harris street by filling In the furrows which will make the field the best that Amherst has ever had.

Too bad HD2000/HD3000 support isn't implemented yet. Those are in need of more love, since fgrlx is not an option anymore and Linux gaming is becoming big this year. Are their problems too severe?
Michael, please, hire some English Lit Major to proofread your articles. I am sure you can match Starbucks' minimum wage!
Well the text mixed up quite different things and isn't correct at all.
It might be a bit confusing but we got two DMA engines on modern radeon hardware: An ASYNC DMA and a SYNC DMA!
The CP DMA Marek is using is the SYNC DMA engine which runs in the same ring (or maybe let's call it "the same thread", cause that a term software devs usually understands better) as the rendering engine. So when you just want to copy data from A to B in between two rendering operations you use the CP DMA.
Jerome is working on patches for the ASYNC DMA engine, which (for example) should be used for uploading texture data from the application to VRAM, cause that isn't something we usually do in between rendering operations.
I just had the feeling that I should clarify that.
An English Lit major probably wouldn't have the common sense to figure that out...

Democratic aide: Fiscal 'cliff' deal reached Updated
Monday, December 31, 2012
WASHINGTON (AP) — A Democratic aide says the White House and congressional Republicans have reached an agreement to avert the so-called fiscal cliff.
Earlier story: House won't vote before midnight on 'cliff' deal
WASHINGTON (AP) — The House will miss the midnight Monday deadline lawmakers set for voting to avoid the "fiscal cliff."
Earlier story: Obama says fiscal cliff deal close, not done
Agonizing close to a New Year's Eve compromise, the White House and congressional Republicans agreed Monday to block across-the-board tax increases set for midnight, but held up a final deal as they haggled away the final hours of 2012 in a dispute over spending cuts.

Quirks mode and how to avoid it
Some templates provide the opportunity to select the type of page width, through its parameter settings. In case this does not meet the requirements, the template manager also allows the modification of the cascading style sheets. It is in those files, usually with the extension .css, that most, if not all, of the style (graphical) attributes are defined.
What is CSS?
CSS stands for Cascading Style Sheet. HTML tags specify the graphical flow of the elements, be it text, images or flash animations, on a webpage. CSS allows us to define the appearances of those html tags with their content, somewhere, so that other pages, if want be, may adhere to. This brings along consistency throughout a website. The cascading effect stipulates that the style of a tag (parent) may be inherited by other tags (children) inside it.
CSS Statements
The definition of an html tag is as follows:
tagname { attribute: value; attribute: value; }
Tagname may be any html tag but for the sake of setting up page width, what is of interest to us is an html tag that gives structure to a webpage. Some webpages are constructed from div tags while others are constructed on table tags. Usually, the tag has a 'width' attribute. You set up a page width by varying the value of the 'width' attribute.
Sometimes, html tags are not defined directly. They are given an id or a class name and CSS refers to those specific tags by their ids or their class names.
The definition of an id in CSS is as follows:
#idname { attribute: value; attribute: value; }
while the definition of a class in CSS is as follows:
.classname { attribute: value; attribute: value; }
Again setting up a page width means modifying the value of the 'width' attribute of any one of these definitions.
For example, the syntax could be by not including the parenthesis,
div {width:50%;}
This will make the width of the element to be 50% of its initial.
More information can be found from w3schools here
Value of the 'width' attribute
The value of the 'width' attribute may be in pixels or percentage. Pixels are fixed values; hence in this case, the width does not vary according to window resizing or changing screen resolutions. Percentage usually means that the width is a fraction of the width of its container. So if we have a screen resolution of 1024 pixels by 768 pixels and our page width is set to 80% of the browser window container, our page would be approximately 820 pixels (80% of 1024) provided that the window browser is open at its fullest.
Professional websites separate styling from content. There are many reasons for this, the most obvious (to a developer) being the ability to control the appearance of many pages by changing one file. Styling information includes: fonts; backgrounds; images (that recur on every page); position and dimensions of elements on the page. Your HTML file will now be left with: header information; a series of elements; the text of your website. Because you are creating a Joomla! template, you will actually have: some header information; php code to request the rest of the header information; a series of elements; php code to request each module position; php code to request the main content.
Style information is coded in CSS, cascading style sheet, and usually stored in files with the suffix .css. A webpage contains a link to the associated .css file so a browser can find the appropriate style information to apply to the page. CSS can also be placed inside a html file between  tags.
All CSS code is applied to an element of the html/xml page. If you want a style to encompass a whole page, you would probably apply it to the  element. You can apply styles to any html element such as
,
 or
 elements. To style a particular element it needs to have an ID. For example, to apply styles to the
 containing the title, you would first include an ID in the html -
.
Horizontal centering is achieved with CSS in one of two ways, depending on what you are centering.
For the first example, let's say you have a horizontal menu at the top of your page that you want centered in your layout. You would do it with a block of code in the linked CSS file like this:
#horz_menu { margin: auto; width: 800px; height: 25px; }
The "auto" value in the "margin" attribute centers the item, so this would create a menu area that is 800 pixels wide and 25 pixels tall and would be centered in whatever space it is placed in.
If you need to add some margin space above and below the menu and still keep it centered you would adjust the code like this:
#horz_menu { margin: 20px auto 20px auto; width: 800px; height: 25px; }
This would add 20 pixles of space on the top and bottom of the menu while keeping the left and right margin in a centered mode.
The second example is when you simply want to center text, in which case you just add the "text-align" code.
#horz_menu a { padding: .75em 0 .52em 0; font-size: 0.8em; font-weight: bold; color: #0033CC; background-color: transparent; text-align: center; }
This would cause any links within the horz_menu div tag of the html code to be centered in the horizontal menu. They would also have .75em of padding above and .52em of padding below them.
These same techniques work for the overall page layout as well. Let's say you want the shell content area of your page to be 900 pixels wide and to be centered on the page and that you want the headline to be centered within it. Your CSS code would look something like this:
#page_container { margin: auto; width: 900px; background-color: #FFFFFF; border: 1pt solid #660000; }
#page_container h1 { margin: 50px 0 20px 0 ; font-size: 1.25em; font-weight: bold; color: #0033CC; background-color: transparent; text-align: center; }
This would create a page that has a main content box centered in the browser window with a white background and a brown border.
Any text inside a h1 tag that is inside the page_container div tag in the html code of the page would also be centered inside that main content box.
Of course the example above is a simplified example for demonstration and you would have more structure involved (left column, right column, etc).
So as you can see, horizontal centering for structural items is achieved with the "margin" attribute whereas horizontal centering for text items is achieved using the "text-align" attribute.
Many web designers and casual website owners are not conversant with the PHP language in which Joomla! is written and since Joomla! templates usually contain PHP statements it is necessary to understand at least a little of the language in order to be able to create or customize templates. This chunk will describe, in simple terms, how to use each aspect of PHP in the context of a Joomla! template. For example, a simple explanation of the PHP if-then-else syntax using extracts from a template for illustration.
The best resource to learn PHP is probably hands on experience and Joomla can provide that to you thanks to it's native PHP code. This can be overwhelming for people who have not programmed before. Though Joomla is easy enough to install with the help of the community and a little of your time you'll have people asking you to do their websites.
One place that has a nice short list if functions and examples is http://en.wikiversity.org/wiki/25_Essential_PHP_Functions which is good to get familiar with PHP. Though for an extensive function list, explanations, and examples go to http://www.php.net.
Once you have the basics of PHP you'll need to get the basics of the Joomla PHP syntax. Start by looking at some existing extensions and check out the code and also take a look at some these Tutorials about Joomla:
That will help you get familiar with some of the functions available within Joomla's system and what they do (using the API). Take particular care to understand the MVC (model view control) setup.
If however, you are absolutely new to PHP, following may help as very brief introduction to PHP.
PHP is a scripting language designed primarily for producing dynamic web pages. It is embedded into an HTML page with tags like <?php...?>. When a page is sent to the PHP engine, the PHP tags are translated into HTML, which can then be rendered by a browser. A database is needed during translation since the script may need to pull data from the database. So to create PHP pages, we require the PHP engine, a database (typically MySQL) and the webserver, which will coordinate these actions and forward the final HTML to the browser. These three components can be installed separately; however, we have packages like WAMP (for Windows), MAMP (for Mac) and LAMP (for Linux), for your convenience.
The packages can be downloaded from WAMP. WAMP stands for Windows Apache MySQL PHP. The instructions can be followed as given in the site and is pretty straightforward. The installation can be done is any directory (say D:/wamp). Once installed, it can be started from the program->start->WampServer. This should give a small icon in the system tray using which the server can be started/stopped/restarted. It also gives links to all important files like php.ini and other configuration files. For Mac users MAMP can be found here. For the purpose of this tutorial XAMPP can also be used.
Our primary objective here is to write a small PHP page and have it rendered by the Apache web server. WAMP renders a page by looking in the www folder of the WAMP Install Directory, hereafter referred to as WAMP_HOME. Fire up your primary text editor, create a page and name it, say, first.php, and save it to the WAMP_HOME/www/x/y folder (x and y are folders created to organize the scripts) and write the following in the script:
  <title>Basic PHP Page</title>   <?php echo "My first php snippet"; ?>
Save this file, point your browser to http://localhost/x/y/first.php, and you should be able to see the echo message.
The primary things to note here are:
1. It is strongly advised that all PHP codes begin with: "<?php" and end with a "?>" tag. 2. To have a semicolon [;] after each PHP statement. 3. The directory where this script resides needs to be given in the URL.
This completes our round-trip. Now, for the sake of learning, you can either keep including new elements in this file or you can create separate scripts and load them in the browser.
We need to hold data for any programming. Following are ways you can define variables in PHP:
Note: here we did not define the type of variable, whether integer or string, that the variable should hold. This is referred to as dynamic scoping.
define ("NAME_OF_THE_CONSTANT" , $value);
The general operators are explained below:
a. + e.g. 6 + 3, addition operator, answer is 9 b. – e.g. 6 - 3, subtraction operator, answer is 3 c. / e.g. 6 / 3, division operator, answer is 2 d. * e.g. 6 * 3, multiplication operator, answer is 18 e. % e.g. 6 % 3, modulus operator, answer is 0 f. . e.g. '6'.'3', concatenation operator, gives string '63' g. += e.g. $x += 6, adds 6 h. -= e.g. $x -= 6, subtracts 6 i. /= e.g. $x /= 6, divides by 6 j. %= e.g. $x %= 6, modulus by 6 k. .= e.g. $x .= '6', concats 6 to x l. < e.g. $x < $y, evaluates to true if $x is < $y m. > e.g. $x > $y, evaluates to true if $x is > $y n. == e.g. $x == $y, evaluates to true if $x is equal by value to $y o. != e.g. $x != $y, evaluates to true if $x is not equal to $y p. === e.g. $x === $y, evaluates to true if $x is and $y is identical i.e both of same type both value and reference q. >= e.g. $x >= $y, evaluates to true if $x is >= $y r. <= e.g. $x <= $y, evaluates to true if $x is <= $y s. && e.g. ($x == 2 && $y == 3) , evaluates to true if $x equals 2 and $y equals 3 t. || e.g. ($x == 2 || $y == 3) , evaluates to true if either $x equals 2 or $y equals 3 u. xor e.g. ($x == 2 xor $y == 3) , evaluates to true if either $x equals 2 or $y equals 3 but not both v. ++ e.g. $x++, increments $x w. –- e.g. $x--, decrements $x
Ways of declaring arrays
Suppose we want many variables. We could have declared the variables as shown above; however, that is not elegant. Suppose you want 100 variables; declaring arrays come to the rescue. Note that the index in PHP starts with 0.
$my_guitar_heroes = array ("Hendrix", "Shankar", "Gilmour", "to_name_a_few!");
$my_guitar_heroes [] = "Hendrix"; $my_guitar_heroes [] = "Shankar"; $my_guitar_heroes [] = "Gilmour"; $my_guitar_heroes [] = "to_name_a_few!";
Here PHP automatically assigns the index.
$my_guitar_heroes [0] = "Hendrix"; $my_guitar_heroes [10000] = "Mainak";
Here, I knew the first and the 10,001st element but that's me!
Or a combination of the above means
// Set the elements at positions 1 through 9999 to the value, "to be decided". $my_guitar_heroes = array_fill( 1, 9999, "to be decided" );
Accessing the Arrays
print $my_guitar_heroes[2]; //Access the 3rd element
// Access the last element (Note that the element positions are numbered zero to // [number of elements] minus one.) $my_guitar_heroes[count($my_guitar_heroes)-1];
// Access the last element using a function call. end($my_guitar_heroes);
Iterating Over the Element of an Array
foreach ( $my_guitar_heroes as $temp) { print "$temp
"; }
To execute a statement of a collection of statements over and over, we use Control Expressions. The general syntax of the control structures are as follows:
if statements
if( $x > 0) { print("$x is positive"); } else if( $x < 0 ) { print("$x is negative"); } else { print("$x is 0"); }
for loop
for ( $x=1; $x<= 10; $x++ ) { print "$x
"; }
while loop
$x = 1 while ( $x <= 10 ) { print "$x
"; $x++; }
do while loop
$x = 1; do { print "$x
"; $x++; }while($x <= 10);
Code which is duplicated in many places is best placed in a function. The following are the ways of describing the function:
function name_of_the_function( $arguments, $size='default_values_if_any' ) { print "here goes in the code"; return "this value is returned, return statement is optional"; }
The arguments are passed by value. If they are to be passed by reference, then an argument is prefixed by "&" as below:
function name_of_the_function( &$arguments, $size='default_values_if_any' ) { print "here goes in the code"; return "this value is returned, return statement is optional"; }
The scope of a variable defined within a function is valid only within that function.
Calling a function
$x = add(5, 3);
Basic printing options
A basic way to debug is to print the value of the variable. The following basic statements achieve that:
echo "if double quotes are used then dollar variables are resolved";
echo 'if single quote are used then dollar variables are not resolved';
print "another way to print";
nl2br("any new line characters like \n get automatically resolved to HTML line breaks");
Apart from these, the log files are very helpful and can be found in the WAMP_HOME/logs directory.
Joomla! provides a safer and cleaner method of accessing request data and alternative ways for accessing the session. Using any of these arrays is not recommended.
PHP does not change any HTML structure, thus any syntax of HTML remains the same. The part that PHP plays is making any part dynamic for e.g., the action attribute of a form can be coded as action=<?php my_own_action(); ?> so that it is dynamically generated. The part where PHP kicks in is after the form is submitted, say to obtain the values of the form fields, set cookies, etc. For this, super global variables are used, which are always available to PHP code. Some of these are:
$_GET - get the data from a GET request
$_POST - get the data from a POST request
$_REQUEST - get the request
$_COOKIE - obtain the cookies from the browser
$_SESSION - obtain the session
These are all arrays, and behave accordingly.
<translate> These are the methods available for uploading images to your Joomla! website.
</translate> <translate> The simplest way to add images is to upload them from your computer using the Media Manager. First, of course, you have to download the image onto your computer and be able to find it. Then, from the Control Panel (back-end administrative interface) navigate to Content → Media Manager.
On the left is a directory tree, with the root directory "Media". This corresponds to the default "images" directory, yoursite/joomla/images. Pick a subdirectory where you want the image located, or else do nothing to upload the image to the default images directory.
At the top left of the page click on "Upload". Then, you'll see Upload box. Click "Browse" to locate the image on your computer, then "Start Upload" to upload the file to the server. </translate>
<translate>=== FTP ===
Of course, you can upload images to a server using any standard FTP client. You might find this handier for adding images to template directories; however, if you have FTP set up, you probably don't need an explanation of how to add an image. Also, many server administration panels such as Cpanel and Plesk have upload capabilities.</translate>
<translate>=== Extensions ===
There are several extensions available from the Joomla Extensions Directory which can upload images.</translate>
<translate> The templateDetails.xml file contains all the installation and core information for a template. In order for module positions to be available for selection in the Module Manager, the positions must be declared in the
templateDetails.xml file of the template.
In the file, the sub-element
<positions> along with its sub-elements
<position> define the locations available for each module position supported by the template. Here is a brief list of the commonly used names for the various module positions and how they are declared.</translate>
<positions> <position>top</position> <position>left</position> <position>right</position> <position>bottom</position> <position>banner</position> <position>syndicate</position> <position>footer</position> <position>user1</position> <position>user2</position> <position>user3</position> <position>user4</position> <position>debug</position> </positions>
<translate> Although these are commonly used, it is up to the template developer to choose both a module position name and the accompanying display layout.</translate>
<translate> The addition of module positions, as displayed above, is implemented in between the
<positions> and
</positions> tags. In between those tags in the
templateDetails.xml file, add the name of the module position in between a set of
<position> and
</position> tags.</translate>
<translate> You can add and define new module positions and give them any name you like, but it is recommended that you support at least those shown in the example above. This is so that some level of consistency is maintained when switching templates or using multiple templates on a single site.
A Joomla! template displays a set of modules added to a specific position using the
<jdoc:include /> statement shown below:</translate>
<translate> <jdoc:include type="modules" name="name of module position" style="xhtml" /></translate>
<translate> For further information about
<jdoc:include /> code and how to use it, see jdoc statements.
Customising the way modules are displayed</translate>
Counting modules in a given module position</translate>
Counting modules in multiple module positions</translate>
Applying custom module chrome</translate>
To get a visual indication of all module positions used on a page you can follow this procedure:-
Note that in some circumstances there may be module positions available that are not outlined in red. This can happen when a template defines those module positions as conditional on there being modules enabled in that position. If there are no modules enabled in that position then the template may adapt and the position will not be visible.
[[Image:Favicon-<translate> en</translate>.png|450px|right]]
<translate> Changing your website's favicon is a relatively easy task. </translate>
</translate> <translate>
</translate> <translate>
/joomla/templates/<your template> directory and name it
</translate> <translate>
</translate> <translate> Some templates contain code that redirects the browser to another directory or another icon file. To determine where your new favicon should be, examine
http://yoursite.com/templates/your_template/index.php and look for code that contains the text <link rel="shortcut icon". There you will find the directory and the name of the icon file. Copy your icon to that place and give it the the name that link is pointing to (you might want to backup the old file). Make sure you set the security correctly such that you webserver has access to that file. Look at the example below. </translate>
<translate> <link rel="shortcut icon" href="http://yoursite.com/templates/your_template/icon/favicon.ico" /></translate>
<translate> If you don't want to just change the favicon.ico file in its respective template directory you can find the reference to the favicon.ico file in the html.php document. The path is "........\libraries\joomla\document\html\html.php". This should prevent the icon from toggling if you use </translate>
<translate> <link rel="shortcut icon" href="http://yoursite.com/templates/your_template/icon/youricon.ico" /></translate>
<translate> in the template html and you don't remove the favicon.ico file. (why call the icon twice?)
From the html.php </translate>
// Try to find a favicon by checking the template and root folder $path = $directory . DS; $dirs = array( $path, JPATH_BASE . DS ); foreach ($dirs as $dir ) { $icon = $dir . 'favicon.ico'; if (file_exists( $icon )) { $path = str_replace( JPATH_BASE . DS, '', $dir ); $path = str_replace( '\\', '/', $path ); $this->addFavicon( JURI::base(true).'/'.$path . 'favicon.ico' ); break;''

Levittown is a charming Pennsylvania community northeast of Philadelphia and close to Trenton, N.J. Families flock to this unincorporated area to raise children and start their own businesses nearby.
Families and couples seeking Levittown apartments for rent may find units big enough to suit their needs throughout the community.
Levittown was founded after troops returned home from World War II and began to seek homes for their families in the suburbs. A company known as Levitt & Sons decided to take advantage of this need for suburban housing and create an affordable community for returning GIs outside Philadelphia in Lower Bucks County.
The community turned out to be a hit with veterans and their young families. A large portion of new residents came from Philadelphia and throughout Bucks County, Montgomery County, and Trenton. Business thrived for Levitt & Sons, and the community grew quickly.
When Levitt & Sons first began building Levittown, they intended for it to be officially incorporated. This would have made it one of the largest cities in Pennsylvania. But residents were fearful of high city taxes. Levittown instead became four separate municipalities - Bristol Township, Falls Township, Middletown Township and the Borough of Tullytown.
Today, Levittown is home to nearly 53,000 residents. It has grown exponentially since its early beginnings as a humble Philadelphia suburb, but it retains some of the special charm that drew new homebuyers there during the 1950s.
Students interested in enrolling in a community college near Levittown can attend Bucks Community College, just a short distance away. With multiple campuses and online learning options, the school makes it as convenient as possible for busy pupils to obtain a degree or earn credits to transfer to a four-year university. Thousands of students attend Bucks Community College, and it has helped many more further their education since it was founded in 1964.
Those who want to pursue a four-year degree at a school in nearby Philadelphia have the opportunity to attend the University of Pennsylvania. The school prides itself on offering rigorous coursework, and students can earn an undergraduate, graduate or law degree. With international programs, a strong athletic scene and many degree programs to choose from, the University of Pittsburgh has a variety of offerings for its students.
Other students may find that Drexel University is more suited to their tastes. The school has historic roots in Philadelphia and is an important research institution in the area. Students seeking a large school with many different courses of study may find Drexel is the college at which they feel at home.
Even though there are many universities nearby, Levittown isn't just a college town. There are opportunities for residents to work throughout the county, and some of the top employers in Bucks County include Central Bucks School District, St. Mary Medical Center, Healthcare Services, Northtec LLC and Doylestown Hospital.
Those thinking about a move to this area will find that Levittown apartments typically range between $1,000 and $1,250 per month. The median gross monthly rent in Levittown was $1,033, according to the U.S. Census Bureau.
Some may find that the cost of living near a metropolitan area is more expensive than they are accustomed to, but residing right between Trenton and Philadelphia may be ideal for some commuters looking for a convenient suburb.
Those who want to find some cultural entertainment nearby can enjoy the performing arts at Bucks County Playhouse. This theater, which opened in 1939, has played an important role in the county. The theater aims to provide residents with high-quality, exciting entertainment and different performances throughout the year.
Residents looking to enjoy the outdoors will find lots of opportunities to do so in Levittown. The Chanticleer Gardens, located close to Levittown, is a great place for citizens to enjoy the beauty of nature. Families can enjoy an exciting day out, picnicking and exploring the unique plants and animals here.

This fridge is a replacement for a bottom freezer model that had to be replaced. This top freezer model is old school but still looks great. There is plenty of room. I agree with another review that it is a little dark without an overhead light. Another review also mentioned how low it is but it does clear the top of my foot. The "bell" for the door being open is a little too quiet. Did not get the model with the inside water because Hubby wants less fluff. Main thing is to keep my food cold and look good. Hope I can still say I love it in a few years.

It's a great refrigerator, but not set up as great inside as it could be. With 24 cu.ft., it should be huge inside, but the large cold cut drawer takes away from shelf space. It seems like there's no place for food on the shelves. It has less space inside than my previous fridge that was 20 cu.ft.--because of that full width drawer. The doors have a good amount of space and areas are adjustable. Ice maker is noisy and makes only 6 cubes at a time.

After waiting for a little over 2 weeks for my new refrigerator/freezer delivery, my new refrigerator was delivered and placed in my kitchen. Unfortunately, the door handle did not line up with the freezer handle and when I went to open the refrigerator door, the handle bracket was broken on top of the door. I did not notice this flaw until after the delivery persons left my home. I went back to the store, and was told I could get a replacement refrigerator delivered in three more weeks and that I could use the flawed refrigerator until the new refrigerator was delivered. I am looking forward to using my Kenmore refrigerator for many more years in the future...

I love the size of this refrigerator and the lighting. The freezer section is fine as far as cooling but the refrigerator section does not stay cold enough even on the highest "cold" setting. Also, you have to get in the habit of standing to the side when you open it or you will hit the top of your foot every time! My husband has offered to put it up on blocks to prevent this, but I would have to tear out some cabinets above the refrigerator. Not very pleased with it.
Plainfield, IL

It is a big refrigerator. The LED lighting in the refrigerator is not well thought out. It needs an LED panel on the top or in the back of the refrigerator. Wasted space under the deli drawer. This unit is NOT that loud. The icemaker is LOUD!!!!! Freezer is big and lit well. Seems to hold temperature well in both top and bottom parts. Came with a broken leveler and doors were not switched to the other side, as stated when ordering at the store. Delivery men switched the doors and a serviceman fixed the leveler. Love the door handles. Keeps a lot of fingerprints off the doors. I would purchase again. The biggest draw back is Sears Russian roulette of pricing. Bought it on sale, got a discount for using the sears mastercard and a coupon for $35.00 off. The next day checked price and it had gone down $60.00. Went back to the store and got the money off the price I paid the day before. Two days later it was $90.00 cheaper. Went back to the store and got the money discounted off the price again. The next day the price was $400.00 more. Kept checking the price for 2 weeks. Up and down,up and down. I need a diswasher and range also. Kept them in my cart and watched the price fluctuate by more than $500.00 over a month period. Now before I buy these two items I check my cart for the price of the day. This is crazy.

We love this refrigerator, there is a place for everything. Like the led light in the freezer makes it easier to find items.
Collinsville, OK

I was a bit concerned after reading some of the reviews about how noisy this refrigerator is. This is the quietest one I have ever owned. Ice maker works fast and keeps us with plenty. I love that it has smooth door and handles because it is so much easier to keep clean than the vinyl with the pits that most have. Lots more room than the side by side I had. You do have to be sure your foot is not in the way when you open the door as it is lower than older models.

Food is a great unifying force in the world. People from entirely different corners of the globe can connect over the similarities and differences that make their cuisine unique. Chef Craig Jones might not be your typical French Indian chef, but this Welshman is perfectly at home cooking the cuisine of the island of St. Lucia….

The Sunday Times Online

The insider - Craig Jones is an award-winning Welsh chef who has lived in St Lucia for a decade. He is executive chef of the Cliff at Cap restaurant at the Cap Maison hotel (capmaison.com), and has recently opened the Naked Fisherman beach bar and grill on the island.
I fell in love with St Lucia almost instantly. I'd always liked the reggae vibe and beach life, and just found it so relaxed. Plus, the food you get here is so impressive – fruit and vegetables with amazing flavours, and seafood that you can watch being brought in and sold. The fishermen blow conch shells and people just swarm around.
I like to take my two daughters to the fish market at Gros Islet. There might be lobster, which is in season now, maybe some red snapper. I'll then put together a basket of ingredients, such as mango, okra, spices and sweet potato, and we'll head to the beach.
Pigeon Point, on the northern tip of the island, is my favourite. It's full of coves, the sea is calm and there are lots of locals. We'll light a fire, wrap the fish in foil and go for a swim while it cooks.
On Friday night in Gros Islet, they shut the roads and have a street party. Most people cook on the roadside - there are corns roasting and the smells are amazing. Everyone's a chef on St Lucia. I've become a big fan of the "one pot", which is as it sounds. Everything goes in there - fish heads, coconut milk, spinach, ginger, dasheen leaves, maybe some pepper. It's not much to look at, but the flavour and aromas are fantastic.
Working with restaurant food all the time, it's great to just switch off, wander and eat as you find. In St Lucia, I'm always learning something new.

Exeter seventh grader to march in inaugural parade with service dog
Sunday, January 20, 2013
EXETER — One 12-year-old's love for animals and helping others has turned into a chance of a lifetime.
"When I grow up, if I get married and have kids, I can tell my kids I walked in the inauguration parade," said Josie.
Because of Manny's yellow cape, telling the public he is an assistance dog in training, the puppy can travel to any public place, including movie theaters, restaurants, and stores. Josie said she is encouraged to get Manny into various environments, as part of his socialization and recalling the various commands despite a change in scenery.
Josie said that while she would love to get a chance to meet the president on Monday and say "hello," President Barack Obama will likely be "surrounded by big buff guys in black suits," she said.
