Our first compliance networking meeting was a great success. Our open forum provided opportunity to express concerns, exchange ideas and understand best practices our credit unions have put in place as it pertains to the new mortgage regulations that came into effect January 2014. Thank you to all who attended and contributed. Our lively group is excited to meet again on May 20, 2014 at 9:00 am at the league. The topic of choice is Fair Lending. This topic was chosen based on the next league in house training session "Fair Lending and How to Conduct a Fair Lending Risk Assessment" scheduled for May 14, 2014 at "IL Monticello", facilitated by M & M Consulting. We felt this would be a good time to discuss the takeaways from the May 14th training session. If you were not able to join us today, we hope you will consider our future meetings.

Legendary Champions
UPDATE: This game has been shutdown and is no longer available
Legendary Champions Overview
Legendary Champions is an oriental themed MMORPG that combines DotA style PvP with traditional MMORPG gameplay. Players create a character, do quests, level up, explore the game world, and take part in all the usual gameplay elements. PvP options include a 5v5 DotA style match-up where players take on the role of Beowulf, King Arthur, Dracula, or one of the other 60 champions available. The game also supports PvP battlegrounds and open world PvP. Legendary Champions isn't just a player vs player game, there are plenty of instanced dungeons and raids for groups and guilds to conquer.
Arcanist - Powerful offensive spellcasters. They are the masters of elemental magic.
Guardian - Defensive class. Guardians don't deal heavy damage, but can absorb blows from opponents.
Battlemaster - Melee fighter who deals massive damage in bursts.
Mender - Supportive spellcasters who possess healing magic. They can also buff their allies, or smite their enemies.
Blade Dancer - The rogue class of Legendary Champions. Blade Dancers rely on speed and stealth.
Archer - Attacking from the distance is their specialty. Their skills can slow or maim targets.

Legendary Champions Review
By, Erhan Altay
The Three Kingdoms period of China is a familiar MMORPG setting, but what would happen if one of the faction leaders got tired of the endless three-way stalemate and looked for a way to spice things up? In Legendary Champions, Cao Cao has ordered his most powerful sorcerer to bend reality to better suit his ambitions. The results? The appearance of historic and mythological characters from around the world. Now the nations of Shu, Wei, and Wu each have an array of powerful generals like Dracula, Beowulf, Jean d'Arc, and many others. Players can even transform into one of these powerful champions during battles!
Picking Sides
The beginner experience in Legendary Champions should be very familiar to free to play MMORPG veterans. Players start by creating a character that belongs to either the Wei or Shu faction. There are six classes to chose from, with each characterized by their weapon of choice. The classes include Arcanist, Guardian, Battlemaster, Mender, Blade Dancer, and Archer. Their names do a decent job describing their playstyle so players should chose the one the feel most comfortable with. Each account has multiple character slots which leaves players free to experiment with different classes. Appearance customization involves choosing from several face styles, hairstyles, and hair colors. While each faction has the same appearance and class options, they have different starting locations and armor designs. The final step is to chose a Guradian, or champion. The initial choice during character creation is not permanent, so just go with the one that looks most appealing.
Mount Up
Many Asian MMORPGs come with well crafted auto-walk features where players can simply click on highlighted text in quest logs, or click on icons on the mini-map to automatically walk to their destination. Legendary Champions takes this feature of convenience one step further, when auto-navigate is activated, players will automatically mount up to make the travel speed that much faster. All players start the game with a basic mount, but can acquire faster ones later. The pathing is a bit silly at times, zig zags are common when a straight line would be faster. If players activate auto-navigate right after a fight, they won't mount up since it takes a few moments to 'leave combat' after a fight. The reason that the navigation feature requires so much attention is because players will put it to immediate use. Legendary Champions is a heavily quest driven game. Experience rewards for completing quests are the only real way to level up since killing monsters yields almost no exp. The navigation features, general interface, and quest driven progression in Legendary Champions all combine to make the game look and feel very familiar to other recent Asian MMORPGs like Battle of the Immortals, Heroes of Three Kingdoms, and Dragon Oath.
Next, Next, Next
The only consequence of the stellar auto-walk feature is that players can't be bothered to read the quest text. From the looks of it, the text seems to be well translated but I have to admit I haven't read more than a line or two. The experience rate is brisk and players will find themselves moving from one map to the next at a fast pace. Each level rewards players with 5 stat points which can be distributed among five stats: Strength, Agility, Wisdom, Stamina, and Intellect. Hovering the cursor over a particular stat explains what it does, and players have unlimited resets available until level 30 so don't be afraid to experiment. Each class has its own set of skills, but increasing the rank of a particular skill is a bit harder than raising stat values. Players must purchase or find skill books. During the first twenty or so levels, there's no need to bother ranking up skills since enemies die after a few regular attacks. The lack of difficulty in PvE during the early stages will come as relief for some players, but others may it makes Legendary Champions feel tedious. The ability to transform into your chosen Guardian for a short time every 30 minutes helps up the tedium. Players will want to save this ability for when they're fighting one of the generals in small, instanced rooms. Several quests involve this type of battle while others involve killing X number of a certain monster, or collecting Y amount of a certain herb or mineral.
Finding Joy
As publishers are apt to do, Aeria Games has given Legendary Champions its current name. The game was originally known in Asia as Heroes: Scions of Phoenix. It was developed by the Taiwanese studio UserJoy which also developed Kingdom Heroes, another free to play MMORPG published in the West by Aeria. While Legendary Champions does support plenty of resolution options, and gives players a decent set of graphic options, the visuals are not exactly cutting edge. The interface helps make up for this fact by being very functional. Movement is controlled with either the mouse or W,A,S,D which should make the game more accessible to that vocal minority who can't stand the point-and-click control scheme. One of the best parts of the interface is the fact that it does some times without manual input. If a player's health or mana runs low, the game will automatically consume the appropriate potion. Additionally, players can select at what percent of total health or mana they want this feature to kick in. All this automation is convenient, but comes with its own set of consequences. Combat feels detached, players will start concentrating on their next target before the current one is even dead. Most AI enemies are not aggressive with the usual exception being a single elite in a camp of monsters. Players can tell whether or not a target is aggressive by the color of its name, yellow means neutral while red means they'll attack on sight.
Healthy Competition
While the special DotA style PvP mode is the most heavily advertised feature in Legendary Champions, it likely won't be the first player vs player experience users encounter. Besides the three capital cities and a few other select zones, every map in the game operates either under Faction PvP or Open PvP rules. Players in faction PvP maps can turn on their PvP flag located under their health bar to take part in combat. While adventuring on open PvP maps, there's no option to opt out and all players are vulnerable to attack. Upon death, players are given the option to respawn at their rally point, their capital city, or right where they died (though this option costs premium currency.) It should also be noted that players can purchase temporary stat and speed buffs through the item mall. But this isn't as imbalanced as it first seems, if a player defeats someone with a premium buff active, it transfers over to them from their slain opponent. So the buffs may help paying players, but they also make them a bigger target in group fights. One frustrating premium service in Legendary Champions, however, is inventory management. The game only gives players 35 inventory slots to work with, additional ones must be purchased with cash.
Guardian Champions
Besides leveling up, stat distribution, and skill rankings, players in Legendary Champions have to decide how to specialize their Guardian Champions. There are four categories of champions: Wei, Shu, Wu, and Misc. Medals are required to upgrade or unlock new champions. These medals themselves come in three variants, one type for each of the three factions. Phoenix badges are used with Wei champions, Kirin badges for Shu champions, and Serpent badges for Wu champions. Players will only be able to earn badges that correspond to their faction, but it is possible to unlock champions from other factions via trading. Each champion has four unique skills, and its own playstyle. The PvP mode where players control their champion is similar in gameplay to titles like League of Legends, Avalon Heroes, and Land of Chaos Online. But these champions also provide stat bonuses to characters outside the arena. Due to this fact, players should pick a champion that provides a bonus in a stat that's important for their character.
Familiar Path
While the champions do add an interesting twist to the game, the bulk of the content in Legendary Champions feels too familiar and even a bit outdated. Many players will get tired of the game before even experiencing PvP. It should be remembered that Legendary Champions is an MMORPG first and must be judged based on the merits of its MMORPG offerings. Besides PvP, the game does end game PvE content in the form of guild raids. God Beasts act as powerful bosses that require 20-30 organized players to take down. The reward for slaying one of these God Beasts includes the usual fare of powerful equipment but also includes gold, the premium currency. There are currently around 40 maps in Legendary Champions with the highest level ones aimed at players around level 60. It remains to be seen what direction the game takes from beta onward, but the unique champions feature does merit a look.
Final Verdict: Good
Legendary Champions manages to do something new with the otherwise overused Three Kingdoms back drop. The inclusion of so many characters culled from distant lands gives the oriental setting a breath of fresh air. Open world PvP and the special DotA style arena make Legendary Champions a competitive MMORPG. The 20-man raids ensure that PvE isn't neglected and that there's enough end game content to look forward to.

Jackson Heights, where the land was somewhat higher than in the surrounding towns, was named after the Jackson family, a prominent family who lived in the area of Northern Boulevard. When the Queensborough Bridge opened in 1908, connecting Manhattan to Queens, Edward MacDougall's Queensborough Corporation began purchasing local farms. In 1909 it purchased a 325-acre parcel of land and continued purchasing land through 1918 with the vision of creating a viable commuter suburb. In 1915 Interborough Rapid Transit (the IRT) built a subway line connecting Queens to Manhattan, and many apartment buildings were built in Jackson Heights. These garden style apartments were designed after garden apartments that were popular in London at the time. Rustic-looking houses were built around spacious courtyards, and these buildings remain some of the most beautiful housing in the city. The City Landmark Preservation Commission designated Jackson Heights a historic district in 1994.
In the 1965 the Hart-Celler Act increased immigration and waves of Asians and Latin Americans entered the United States via New York City. Many of these new Americans settled in Jackson Heights and built communities here. Jackson Heights is now one of the most diverse neighborhoods in the New York City.
A traveling station library opened on April 17, 1917 to serve what had been mostly farmland, but was becoming more urbanized. During the 1920s and 1930s temporary branches were established in a number of storefronts along 37th avenue. The Jackson Heights Community Federation led an effort to have a library built after World War II, but building restrictions and a lack of funds hindered these efforts, and the Jackson Heights branch would not be finished until 1954. The Jackson Heights Branch of the Queens Borough Public Library opened at its present location on October 26, 1954. Extensive renovations occurred in 1970 and again in 1985. An elevator was built and the adult bathrooms were made handicapped accessible in 1999. The branch is now 17,100 square feet in area.
A multi-year initiative has been launched for the design and construction of a 50,000 square foot new library facility on the current site. This will eventually allow the Jackson Heights Library to greatly expand and enhance the services it provides to its diverse and vibrant community.
The Jackson Heights northern border is the Grand Central Parkway, and the western border of the neighborhood is the Brooklyn-Queens Expressway. Roosevelt Avenue is along the southern edge of Jackson Heights and the eastern border is Junction Boulevard.

Hi: 10° Lo:7°
By Rob George Friday 21 December 2012 Updated: 03/01 17:12
Andre Rieu and his Johann Strauss Orchestra
LG Arena – Birmingham.
VIOLINIST and conductor Andre Rieu waltzed his way into the LG Arena in Birmingham for a magical evening of music and entertainment to entrance his appreciative audience.
The 'King of the Waltz' concluded three nights of concerts in the second city with a packed programme of classical music and beautiful harmonies to put everyone in the 3,000 strong crowd in the mood for Christmas.
While Rieu and his orchestra are always dressed for the occasion, morning suits for the men and ball gowns for the ladies, this does not stop the group having fun while they work.
Many of the classical music pieces feature some form of entertainment or fun for the audience to enjoy as well as the majestic melody being played.
From smoke billowing from the instruments being played at a sensational speed to the gentle flirting between Rieu and his beautiful opera singers, each piece is delivered with a smile on the face.
The maestro from Maastricht in Holland knows how to captivate, compel and even tease his audience during a near three-hour extravaganza.
Wonderful pieces from around the globe were delivered in a first half which Rieu invited us to meet many members of his orchestra, his wonderful tenors and the opera singers.
You realise very quickly that Rieu wants you to get close to him and the orchestra, because then he can truly captivate you and draw you in to his web of musical melody.
The charm offensive continued in the second half but only after Rieu gave latecomers a gentle nudge to hurry them back into the seats.
No one appeared to mind though as the charming 63-year-old soon invited the audience to take to the floor for a waltz to Strauss's own 'Blue Danube'.
Many responded and while the dancing might not be on a par with that in Strictly Come Dancing, the joy on the faces of those on their feet was a sight to behold.
A wonderful version of Bolero followed before Rieu wished his audience goodbye. However, the 3,000 strong crowd demanded more and were rewarded in style.
Performing more encores than One Direction in front of screaming teenagers, Rieu delivered a finale to savour which included a rousing and emotive performance of Amazing Grace together with friends from the West Midlands Fire Service pipe band.
Rieu could easily have carried on all night and based on this show it will be a long time before the 'King of the Waltz' take his final bow.

- Looks great
- Very Difficult To Set Up
Best Uses
- For 5-foot Snap Peas
Adding 4 re-bar stakes spaced out should give lots of stability with heavy vines - will know more when I harvest the pea pods.
- Was this a gift?:
- No
Best Uses
I Bought this unit. I found that it was difficult to assemble (meaning adding the top portion of this to the bottom) I ended up just using both of them in the ground and just got a bush type pea that does not grow beyond 24 inches. This is an attractive unit and glad I did purchase it.
- Was this a gift?:
- No
- Actually Works Great
- Can Stand On Its Own
- Stands On Its Onw
- Stands on its own
- Super easy setup
- Parts Can Separate
Best Uses
- Any Plant That Climbs
Fence works great. Easiest to set up with 2 people but 1 can set it up. Stands on its own but if used with heavy plants I suggest you add a support. As I get older it also get harder to set up the garden. This fence has been a lifesaver. Be careful when setting up the fence--not to let the parts separate. I tie then together to keep that from happening.
- Was this a gift?:
- No
- Sturdy
- Versatile
Best Uses
- Garden
- Planters
- Raised beds
Stack it and it's perfect for tall peas. Un-stack it and it's great for shorter vines. Place it around and enclose it in screen or garden fabric and it'll keep the rabbits out of your sprouting vegetables. Make a circle or a square or a triangle and it provides fencing for vining plants in raised beds. I need more of these!
- Was this a gift?:
- No
- Nice color
- Impossible to assemble
- Too small
Best Uses
Over the years I've bought many products from Gardener's Supply, and I've been pleased with most of them. Some time ago I purchased a medium or large cucumber trellis, but it was too small, so I then purchased the deluxe cucumber trellis. It is also too small, so I put the two trellises together. The cucumber vines go up one side of the (combined) trellis (4 feet), over the top (4 feet), and then down the other side. This works.
Besides being too small, I was unable to put the deluxe cucumber trellis together properly. The two pieces for one side slid together easily, but the other two would not. One piece was 1/4" longer than the other, so I could either bend one piece so that it bowed out, or not connect that end and use the two metal clasps to hold the two pieces together. Clearly, this was a quality control issue. In addition, I could not manage to attach the assembled sides together with the four corkscrew clasps that were provided. I managed to get two of the corkscrew clasps about a quarter of the way on, but even with pliers that was all I could do. Still, it held together.
I like the color (green).
I recently bought supports for peas, but it is still way too hot in Atlanta to plant peas. I haven't even assembled the peas supports yet, so I can't comment yet on their usefulness.
- Was this a gift?:
- No
Best Uses
Use for sugar snap peas in the spring, long beans in the summer and not sure what we'll use it for next! This is our first year with this, so can't comment on how hardy it is, but so far so good!
- Was this a gift?:
- No
Best Uses
The trellis can be separated, so it does not need to have each connection attached, but used separately for individual plants....great!
- Was this a gift?:
- No
- Great for raised beds
Best Uses
Great where space is at a premium. Well conceived.
- Was this a gift?:
- No
Best Uses
Great for two plantings of peas -- one for now and one for later. Sturdy when combined with a couple of stakes.
- Was this a gift?:
- No
Best Uses
Nice and tall-for this reason stake it so it won"t lean

Northeast Ohio's energy efficiency roadmap: now and the future
Blog Entry:
November 06, 2012 4:30 AM | Author: DAVE KARPINSKI
Dave Karpinski
is Vice President of
and Director of
NorTech Energy Enterprise
. He leads the organizations efforts to accelerate economic growth in Northeast Ohio's advanced energy industry and has over 20 years of private sector experience in a variety of manufacturing-related industries.
For some time now, there has been a lot of excitement about the energy efficiency sector in Ohio and its potential to drive economic growth. But until a detailed asset inventory was recently completed, the extent and impact of the sector was not clear. The lack of detailed insight into the sector made it difficult to identify and prioritize opportunities for growth. Now we are armed with a clear picture of what we have in Ohio and Northeast Ohio upon which we can build.
The rationale for taking a closer look at our energy efficiency assets was highlighted in the June 5th blog
"Energy Efficiency: Maximizing Ohio's Competitive Advantage,"
. Although overall U.S. energy demand has fallen slightly over the past two years, the demand for energy efficient products and services has actually increased. Pike Research estimates that the energy efficient retrofits market for commercial and public buildings alone will grow from $80.3 billion in 2011 to $151.8 billion in 2020.Likewise, the energy efficient housing category will increase from a $14 billion dollar market in 2012 to an $84 billion market in 2020. Between market demand, the duty to respect environmental impact, and reduced budgets, the need to fully understand our energy efficiency ecosystem, as well as knowing where to focus in order to make future economic impacts, has become of utmost importance.
Earlier in the year, NorTech and Advanced Energy Economy Ohio (AEE Ohio) partnered to catalog all of the energy efficiency sector's assets in Ohio. The purpose behind the effort was to concretely identify the companies and research already engaged in the energy efficiency sector as a basis for future growth. The results of the project have been enlightening. The asset inventory revealed over 400 companies and organizations in Ohio that are working on the development, manufacture and applicability of energy efficiency products, materials, services, and components in 48 distinct technology systems across 13 categories. These companies collectively generate $2 billion in revenue annually within Ohio.
Click here
to view the full report available on the AEE Ohio website.
The state-wide results and specific regional impacts were examined by me and my colleagues, Andy Holzhauser, Greater Cincinnati Energy Alliance, Steve Caminati, Director of Public Affairs, AEE Ohio, and Nick Bush, Founder and Principal, Bush Consulting Group, during the
Advanced Energy B2B Conference and Expo 2012
held last week in Columbus, Ohio.
Nick Bush outlined the overall results of the asset inventory across the state and provided a summary of the region by region strengths. Specifically for Northeast Ohio, the inventory results begin to tell the story of our dynamic energy efficiency sector in the region, including:
• 218 companies & organizations
• 3,940 employees
• $1.02 billion in annual revenue
This is quite impressive and indicates that the region is responsible for over half of the state's revenue in energy efficiency. Specifically, the segments of critical mass that were identified as a priority in Northeast Ohio include:
• Lighting: Over 30 assets, both solid state and non-solid state technologies, anchored by GE Lighting, Advanced Lighting Technologies Inc. and LSI Industries
• Waste Heat Recovery: Echogen Power Systems and Babcock & Wilcox Company are two examples of the 25 assets in this segment
• Energy Management Systems: Rockwell Automation, Novar Controls Corp. and Intwine Energy are three prominent companies in this segment of 14 assets
• Insulation: Over 35 assets in this category include Owens Corning and Johns Manville
• Burner Sub-Systems: Seven companies include Fives North American Combustion Inc., R.W. Beckett and Unicontrol
• Services:
o Building Optimization: 14 companies
o Energy Service Companies (ESCOs): 13 companies
o Energy Audits: 20 companies
Several key points were discussed last week by our panel at the Advanced Energy B2B Conference and Expo 2012. Steve Caminati remarked that the detailed inventory of companies and commercial activity in the state will be an important tool for framing and advocating appropriate policies to encourage growth in our energy efficiency sector. One idea that is currently being discussed is the concept of On-Bill Repayment, which enables residential ratepayers to finance energy efficiency improvements to their home and repay the loan through payments to their utility on their monthly bill. The idea is that the energy savings can offset the expense of the loan payments. The arrangement should also make financing for such projects more readily available and easier for ratepayers.
Financing was a key focus of the panel discussion. All of the panelists agreed that innovations in financing alternatives will be critical to drive significant growth in the sector in Ohio. Andy Holzhauser is gaining traction in Greater Cincinnati by combining public funds with private sector dollars to increase the available pool of capital for residential energy efficiency projects and achieve terms very attractive to homeowners. However, he remarked that much more can be done and needs to be done in the financing arena. This will continue to be a focus for Greater Cincinnati Energy Alliance. He also commented that the asset inventory will be a useful tool to build additional support for his efforts.
Another key point was the opportunity to connect the service providers conducting audits and recommending energy efficiency projects with the manufacturers of the products and materials that are needed for the projects. By more effectively connecting the supply of products and materials from Ohio companies to projects being implemented in Ohio, we can leverage even more economic impact for our state.
I commented on plans in Northeast Ohio to continue the roadmapping process to its conclusion. From the beginning of this initiative, NorTech's intent has been to take the asset inventory data and develop a complete energy efficiency roadmap for Northeast Ohio, utilizing InSeven℠, our proven roadmapping process. This involves key additional steps beyond the asset inventory itself. These steps include projecting the market opportunity over the next seven years, assessing the region's competitive position, developing a vision and goals for each of the priority segments and gathering stakeholder feedback. The full roadmapping process will be finished by year-end and will result in a completed roadmap with an appropriate action plan for the region.
Understanding what the entire state has to offer has set the stage for NorTech and other economic development organizations to hone in on those proficiencies that are distinctive in each region. The asset inventory enables opportunities for economic development organizations in each region to take this insight and develop plans of action to leverage their regional strengths to stimulate growth and job creation. Stay tuned for the results of the Northeast Ohio roadmap to be rolled out by the end of the year.

Lackmond TB7S - PRODUCTS Standard TBS Series 7"x.100xDM-5/8" Turbo Diamond Blade for Cured Concrete
The tubro rim blade has gained popularity over the past ten years and secures a stealth spot in the diamond blade category- particularly in the 4" through 10" diameters. The theory behind the turbo design is that the continuous rim gives cleaner edging and more precise cuts, while the castelations create aggression. Simply put, the continuous rim design can take significantly more abuse (i.e. being thrown in the back of a truck at the end of a day) than a traditional segmented blade. There is a much smaller chance of knocking a tooth loose or bending/tweaking a segment. While the Turbo rim will give a better, more precise finish than the traditional segmented blade, it tends to cut a bit slower- due to the amount of surface area grinding at the aggregate. The Turbo style blade is very popular in the marble, granite, and stone industry. The TBS STANDARD series blade is our true mid-range turbo blade. The TBS incorporates high end features and performance with a very affordable price.

They lurk in the shadows of society, venturing into gray areas of right or wrong, toughened by facts of life, but apparently doomed to failure. But they are human beings too. Block Head who dotes on his son and tolerates his nagging wife. Chubby who is ever so kind to his grandmother. Chung who still loves childhood sweetheart Ah Sheung, now a cabaret hostess. And Rooster. And Bull's Eye. Their leader is Tung who has a perfect plan for a "job" in Hong Kong. In 48 hours, they are to cross the border, rob a jewelry shop and then get back across the border. Things start to go wrong at the border. They lose Bull's Eye to bullets and pouncing dogs. And a lone robber got to the jewelry shop one step ahead of them. With police converging on the spot, they get into a gunfight and have to do their best to escape. While they take a breather in a cabaret, Tung sees the fence Tai for a loan, Tai's condition: kill Fatso. The killing is done but Tung is alarmed to learn they have just killed a policeman. The group grabs Tai for ransom. Tai, now abandoned by his own men, goes to police. He also arranges for the group's next heist. Thus when they meet Tai after the "job", police come in helicopters. Tai is killed. They get away but Block Head is seriously wounded. They go to the walled city of Kowloon to find a doctor for Block Head. And they are betrayed by the doctor's wife. Block Head is dying. These basom friends are splitting on the next move. Some want to go back. Some want to stay. Only Tung realizes there is no place in the world for them. But they keep on shouting and are coming to a shoot-out. Can these Dirty Rats have another chance? Or, are they really doomed to sanguinary failure?

There are no kangaroos in Austria. We're talking about Australia, the world's smallest continent. That being cleared up, let's dive right in! Australia is a sovereign state under the Commonwealth of Nations, which is in turn overseen by Queen Elizabeth the Second, by the Grace of God, Queen of Australia and Her other Realms and Territories, Head of the Commonwealth. The continent was first sighted and charted by the Dutch in 1606. Captain James Cook of Britain came along in the next century to claim it for Britain and name it "New South Wales." Shortly thereafter it was declared to be a penal colony full of nothing but criminals and convicts, giving it the crap reputation you may have heard at your last cocktail party. This rumor ignores 40,000 years of pre-European human history, especially the Aboriginal concept of Dreamtime, an interesting explanation of physical and spiritual reality. The two biggest cities in Australia are Sydney and Melbourne. Sydney is more for business, Melbourne for arts. But that's painting in very broad strokes. Take a whirl around the panoramas to see for yourself! Text by Steve Smith.

New York (CNNMoney) — Stocks lost ground for the second day in a row Tuesday, as investors braced for Corporate America to start reporting quarterly results.
The Dow Jones Industrial Average, S&P 500, and Nasdaq closed down between 0.2% and 0.4%, bouncing back from steeper declines ahead of the close.
Several traders said volume was light, which can lead to exaggerated moves.
Most of the day was simply a waiting game for investors. The first Dow component -- aluminum producer Alcoa -- reported results after the closing bell. The company beat analysts' revenue forecasts and hit profit forecasts of 6 cents per share. Shares of Alcoa rose after hours following the earnings release.
Overall, fourth-quarter earnings for S&P 500 companies are expected to rise 3.3% from the fourth quarter of 2011, according to S&P Capital IQ.
Agriculture firm Monsanto reported earnings ahead of the open that blew past estimates. It also raised its guidance for the year.
In other corporate news, shares of Yum Brands sank nearly 4%, after the restaurant operator said its fourth-quarter sales in China would be weaker than expected due to a controversy over food safety standards.
Netflix customers will have a few new options this year, thanks to a content deal inked with Warner Bros. Users will be able to stream complete seasons of several series produced by Warner Bros., which is owned by CNNMoney parent company Time Warner. Netflix's shares closed down 2%.
Sears Holdings Corp. was the biggest drag on the S&P 500, dropping more than 6%, after company announced its CEO was stepping down. Sears chairman Edward Lampert, who's been trying to orchestrate a turnaround for the trouble retailer, will become the new CEO next month.
On the economic front, the Federal Reserve said that consumer credit continued to expand in November.
Related: Fear and Greed Index shows investors still greedy
European markets closed in mixed territory, following a report showing the unemployment rate topping a record high in the eurozone.
Asian markets ended lower. The Hang Seng and the Nikkei lost 0.9%, while the Shanghai Composite declined 0.4%.
In the bond market, the yield on the 10-year U.S. Treasury note slid to 1.88%. The yield rose near 2% last week as investors pulled money out of safer investments and moved into more risky assets.
Oil and gold prices edged higher. The U.S. dollar moved higher versus British pound, but fell against the Japanese yen and the euro.

Calling All Single, Ambitious, Have-it-Together Catholic Men
If you fit the qualities described, please don't be afraid to contact me.
My question is: Where are all the single, ambitious Catholic men? I mean someone who a) doesn't still live at home, b) has a stable and steady job, c)is ambitious enough to move up the ladder and enhance their career knowing that it will ultimately lead to them being able to be a leader and main provider for their future family?
Granted one's age has a lot to do with where they are in life and other circumstances are taken into consideration. I'm obviously not talking about those who are still obtaining their education, just starting out in the workforce, serving in the ministry, or who have had certain circumstances which have "put them behind" a little bit. Everyone's situation is individual and unique.
However, I wouldn't think it would be to much to ask to find someone whom I can gladly call my "equal." I want a man who shows initiative, is ambitious, hard-working, and shows great leadership. He doesn't have to be as educated as I am or even as ambitious; however, I would like to find someone who doesn't make me feel like I would have to be the one "running the show" should things ever get serious. Simply put, what I am looking for is someone who a) knows where he is going in life--both career wise and otherwise, b) what he wants out of life--both personally and professionally, and c) is actually putting the wheels in motion to make it happen.
For those of you who are still "figuring it all out," I would highly recommend a book called "Would You Date You?" Although it is not typical of men to read a self-help book I think this one is worth mentioning because it requires you to take a deep look in the mirror and see if you truly are in a ready, in many aspects of your life, to start a relationship.
God bless,

Malaysian Rendang
It has been more than three years since I posted my Beef Rendang recipe. I am pleasantly surprised that to this day I still get the occasional inquiry and request with regards to protein substitution, alternative cooking methods, or the usage of a different spice mix to make the paste. Especially after September of last year, when Rendang topped the readers' choice list of CNN's "World's 50 Most Delicious Foods". I am guessing that should be a plausible factor as to why Rendang suddenly scrambled on to a lot of people's "to-cook" list.
South-East Asian curries are unique with their own distinctive tastes and names. Rendang, Panang, Kari Ayam, Massaman, just to name a few. All in all they share different takes and preferences on blended spices and other fragrant aromatics. For those of you who have yet to be acquainted with the exotic delicacy that is Rendang, it is in a nutshell, a mildly spicy, rich and flavorful, semi-dry curry that is popular throughout the South-East Asian region, especially in Malaysia, Singapore, and Indonesia. And it is one of the main dishes that is served during Malay weddings and festivities.
This delicacy is especially dear to my heart because it brings back fond memories of how my mom used to break out her cache of spices tucked neatly away in an airtight Tupperware container marked "Rendang" and carefully measure each and every spice with her traditional mini brass metal kitchen scales that resemble an upright stickman dangling a wok on each hand.
As I've pointed out back in my Beef Rendang post, no two Rendang can turn out the exact same way. Mainly due to the varying amount of spices used and the ever crucial reduction process to allow the absorption of the spices into the meat yet not over-drying it. This time around, I am going to make Rendang using lamb, with a slight variation of the spices, and braising it in a crock pot/slow cooker. This was actually quite a leap for me as my preferred method have always been to stew it on the stovetop. But lo and behold, it turned out to be every bit as scrumptious as depicted.

It does look yummy, I bet I can eat a big bowl of rice with that.
Hi, just a question here. Do I have to fry the chilli paste till the oil separates like your beef rendang? I had to fry for at least 40mins for the chilli paste as in your fantastic beef rendang recipe. Thanks for your help!
Its totally up to you. I just did 5 minutes on med-high since I used a generous amount of oil to get it going, and let the slow cooker do the rest of the work!
In the words of the LOLcats, NOM!
I already tried this, but I used Beef instead of lamb. Great! My kids love it.
Either way…different meat speak their own flavor and all are delicious in their own way…still beef rendang is the best of all :)
Hi, this looks delicious and I can't wait to make it. Just a quick question: is tamarind paste the same as tamarind juice?
Tamarind paste is a concentrated form of tamarind juice yield from soaking block tamarind in warm water. For this recipe, to get 1 teaspoon of tamarind concentrate, you will need to soak 1/4 oz of block tamarind with 1 tablespoon of warm water. Its so convenient to use tamarind paste and both tamarind blocks and paste can be easily found in most Asian grocery markets.
looks so good .
Rendang is one of my favorite curries! I can imagine how good it would be with lamb…yummy! Is there a substitute for candlenut?
Yes, yummy indeed:) You can substitute candlenut for raw cashews or Macadamian nut.
Looking good, Bee! I made lamb rendang about a year ago and pairing it with pacri nanas. I bet you know pacri nanas too :)
Thanks! And thanks for reminding me about Pacri Nanas. Have not had it in a while. It does sound good after a rich, savoury Rendang meal.
Hi. Can I use chicken instead? Will it also tastes as good as this? And should I add water any step? Thank u
Yes, of course. Towards the end of the braising process if you feel the Rendang chicken is bit dry, you may add bit water.
Pingback:Food « About My Life
I love this and I will be making it for guests on Wednesday along with coconut rice. Any suggestions for starters to lead up to this or some first courses? Thanks!
your pic is making me drool :S i loveee rendang but sometimes i get so lazy to prepare it + source for all the spices that i take the shortcut and use a rendang paste! love the one from prima taste as it tastes like the real thing.
when i feel like getting down to do some serious cooking i'll try out this recipe of yours! :)
This looks great! I have three questions, though. Do you use sweetened or unsweetened dried coconut? Can I substitute japanese yams for the potatoes? Do you know what temp to cook this in a dutch oven, rather than a crock pot? Thanks so much!
Oh no! I just discovered that kaffir lime leaves have been banned in the states for the last six months or so. I am planning to make this for a party tomorrow. Can you recommend a substitute??
What type of oil is best? Sesame oil? We americans use vegetable oil for just about everything!!
Thank you for this recipe, I tried it with kangaroo and it was fantastic.
where can i get lengkuas here?
Many thanks for the recipe.
Just wondering if you can just use a normal pot on the stove to cook the meat for one and a half hours rather than using the slow cooker? (cause I see that you don't use a slow cooker in your beef rendang and I am student the is not that rich enough to buy a slow cooker)
Rasa..can you tell me what the specific differences between Malaysian Rendang with Indonesian Rendang? (sorry if there is the same question). Oh, ya.. Have you ever tried to eat them?
Hi, can i substitute coriander seeds to powder form, if yes, what is the measurement still 1 tsp ? Thanks, i love your recipe
Pingback:Lamb Rendang | The Unsteady Cook
I don't have a slow-cooker, what would you recommend in terms of cooking times/heat etc.?
Hi Bee,
I just wanted to express my heartfelt thanks to you for teaching us this recipe on the Beef Rendang. I made this for our church group's Easter picnic (mind you, all the aunties and uncles in this group are very experienced cooks in their own right!) and they all raved that my rendang was amazing! What a great feeling that was. I can't take all the credit, as I have to accredit that to your well crafted recipe and guidance.
I followed your instructions carefully, but I also added more chillies, and doubled the portions of overall ingredients as I was cooking for 32 people who could stomach very spicy Asian food. Haha! When they found out I made my own rempah, they were astounded! LoL!
Thank you so much for your generous sharing of recipes and dedication to this website, and your uncompromising commitment to preserving authenticity, especially in Nonya cooking and other traditional recipes (in a world that has one too many quick and adulterated shortcuts these days) which is something I truly respect and admire, and hope you will keep up! :-))
Looking forward to impressing others with more of your recipes!
P.S. So glad your website is back to normal and no more Deer Hunter app game advertisement banners popping up on your home page! Eek, hope I didn't jinx this by saying it… hehe… ;-)
Warm Regards,
Thanks Bee, for this recipe. I love your blog and made this recently in a church dinner. My friends love it! One of my friends even said 'it tastes like homeeee!' God Bless you
Simply fantastic, great recipe! I also ate way to much, it was painful :-) Thanks from Oslo
Hi Bee, thanks for sharing this wonderful recipe! I have been trying to replicate this dish ever since I tasted it at my fav nasi padang stall. Went through many recipe books without success until I stumbled upon your site. Now I can make this dish anytime my craving strikes! Thank you, thank you, thank you!!!

I just picked up a 30 gallon acrylic aquarium (used), and it came with an old fluorescent hood light. I decided to look around for a cooler, more energy efficient LED model. I came across this by searching for a freshwater designed LED light (most are geared towards saltwater). I really liked the fact that I could use one or add on if needed, so I took a chance and bought a single fixture. It's actually brighter than the fluroescent light was, so light output is not a problem at all with this light fixture. My tank is 30" wide, so I got the 30" model. It just rests on top of my aquarium, as the light runs the full length of the tank so the end hooks don't even touch the sides on it. It looks very cool...you barely even notice it's there. So far, so good...I'll post a follow-up when I get some fish in there.
