choosing a double oven
We're replacing a double oven that's old and tired. After looking at various brands, we've pretty much settled on a DCS/Fisher & Paykel. Has anyone had any experience with this oven? Our 10-yr-old Fisher & Paykel gas cooktop has served us very well. Other brands we're considering are Viking, Wolf, and Thermadore. We have family members who have both Thermadore and Dacor and have discouraged us from those brands due to unreliability and poor performance. The salesman told us Thermadore underwent a quality alteration about six years ago ... experience, anyone? Also, we were discouraged by two different appliance retailers from purchasing Viking because of service issues. Both claimed they've had difficulty getting parts and customer service from Viking. Again, I'm interested in the experiences of others! Thanks!
I have never used the DCS, but it was my first oven crush. They use it on the Americas Test Kitchen TV show on PBS. The ovens look gorgeous and there is an iconic wall of ovens that has to be seen to be believed! Their racks look amazing, and the controls - so simple and elegant. Enjoy yours in the best of health!
I suggest posting this question on the Appliances Forum.
We just put in a Thermador double oven in our remodel and have been using it fairly regularly since December. It's been great for us so far but who knows what a year or two will bring. We worked with a fantastic appliance company in our area that is well-regarded so I'm not worried about getting repairs if necessary (I've never ever ever had to have an appliance repair person out to our house - 20+ years).
One of the things that sold us on the Thermador ovens is the soft-close doors. They are one of the best features IMO!
Thanks so much for the feedback - it really is helpful! To ck_squared: that Thermadore feature really is impressive! How many times my old oven door has slammed shut, causing me to fear for the glass insert in its door! I'm sure you'll enjoy your oven for years to come! To buehl: I'm new to this website (love it for the forums), so didn't realize there was a better forum I could use. May try that .. thanks! And to EAM44: I appreciate your comments regarding the DCS. I did realize America's Test Kitchen uses them, and I, too, like the simplicity of their look .. that's one thing that's selling me. The other thing is the fact that there's no electronic control panel - I prefer to do my own settings. And I love those racks! This is probably the oven we'll buy .. thanks for your well wishes!

Thanks to the Friends of the Jackling Organ for their heroic efforts in removing and preserving the Aeolian/Kilgen organ. Do you have any contact information for them?

It is obvious none of the people who are flogging this dead horse have no background in architecture, or the reality of what a dud this house represented for the architect. The mind is an organ and it was an important piece in the otherwise ordinary ugly structure.
Everyone loves organs.Big ones, old ones, and ugly ones.

Urooj Khan owned a dry-cleaning business in Chicago and had won a million dollar in an Illinois lottery scratch ticket in June last year.
Shabana Ansari has opened up about losing her 46-year-old husband Urooj Khan, who immigrated to the US from India in 1989.
The Central Government on Tuesday
informed the Kerala High Court that it had taken up with the
Royal Bhutan Government the matter pertaining to violation of
lottery rules in Kerala by Bhutan lotteries.
Kerala CM said two ordinances concerning other-state lotteries and takeover of land occupied illegally by Tatas in Munnar,been sent to Governor.
Government on Friday said it chose to
regulate lotteries trade rather than banning it outright due
to lack of political consensus over the issue.
The Supreme Court today wondered
what business the government has got to do by running
lotteries which according to a petition is ruining the lives
of lakhs of families.

The Generation Gap
The people who write open-source software are the hackers—the community that had its origins at the MIT AI Lab.
It began in 1959, when a group of people in the Signals and Power group of the Tech Model Railway Club got access to a small computer—the TX-0. This was different from the big IBM mainframe, where one submitted a deck of punched cards, then waited around for their own job to run. With the TX-0, one could actually sit at a console and deal with the machine directly. The club loved it. They loved the challenge of trying to make it do what they wanted, and the feeling of power when it finally did. They started with practically nothing in the way of an operating system. They wrote their own system functions and simple tools and used them to build better tools.
These were the original hackers—a group of people who thought programming was the most important thing in the world. They were explorers. They were a community. They shared information and ideas, and they shared the belief that if information and ideas move freely, everyone benefits. They shared the product of their work—tools, utilities, experiments, games and jokes. A person's standing in the hacker community was based on almost nothing except that work.
People moved in and out of the community at MIT. Some hackers moved to other institutions and kept in touch via the ARPA-Net (a precursor to the modern Internet). The community became a network community and stopped having a specific geographic location. As Internet access became available to anyone in college, this community grew. The Internet became the focus for many hackers; its infrastructure was developed largely by hackers. Now the focus has shifted to Linux, and the software that runs under it.
As Eric Raymond describes in his paper "Homesteading the Noosphere", the hacker culture is a gift culture—status within the community is based on what a person creates and gives away. Open-source software is the product of people programming (testing and debugging) and giving away the results. Most of this work is done in the spare time by people who also hold paying jobs.
People contribute to open-source projects for a variety of reasons: fascination with the problem, desire for a meaningful programming project, wanting to participate in the community, an opportunity to prove themselves, or a desire to use the new software personally. They continue to contribute to the community and culture because it works. People who have never physically met, each doing whatever they feel like doing, can in their spare time create great software.
The General Public License is seen as strongly supporting the hacker culture. It can be difficult to attract contributors to a project for software that is not licensed under the GPL. It can be particularly difficult for projects involving components licensed under the MIT license.
In the past, people in the Open Source community were the primary users of open-source software, but this has changed. Many new Linux users are not programmers and many of them will never contribute to open-source projects. Open-source developers don't feel cheated by this; they feel vindicated. To a hacker, the ultimate measure of software's worth is whether people find it useful.
Linux has been very good for the Open Source movement. Huge numbers of people are trying it. Many more are hearing about it. People are pushing for its use where they work. More and more people are learning about the Open Source movement and its values, and becoming involved in open-source projects and a part of the Open Source community. The community benefits from increasing use of open-source software, whether that use directly supports open-source development or not. The community benefits when dentists, for instance, use Linux.
Suppose, however, that a dentist and I want to get together and write an application that implements his top-secret super-duper billing technique. The technique is a trade secret, so the application must be closed source. Now, suppose that as I'm writing it, I want to use an open-source library to do statistics. If this makes my billing application a "derived work" and I'm going to get a bunch of licensing hassles, I'll do something else. I'm not trying to derive a new statistics library—I just want to use it. If it's a good thing for a dentist to run his billing application on Linux, why wouldn't it be a good thing for the application to use open-source parts?
The more people who use open-source components, the more people will decide some component needs a wee change and they should do a little work for the open-source project. If open-source components are used in business applications, businesses will, from time to time, find it in their interest to pay someone to work on the components. This is good for the Open Source movement.

Delicious! Will definitely have this again.
Delicious! I salted the tomato just a little and drizzled a little olive oil and it's perfect!
Very filling and tasty! Definitely needed some extra salt so I'll be adding that to the cheese mix next time. Made in a frying pan and came out great! Next time I might try dicing the basil and tomato to put on top though so you don't get it all in one bite.
On a side note - I tried making with vegan cheese this last time and I wouldn't suggest it (unless you're vegan of course :)). It was ok, but much better with true mozz cheese.
This was really good. I used fat free mozzarella and it came out delicious. I wanted to keep it simply filling. My husband really enjoyed it as well. I will be making this again....

Garden pagoda
tehutiMay 17, 2008
Posted on garden junk.
I kept throwing the base sections of various table lamps in my "salvage" pile after using the glass for other projects. Yesterday I had this brainstorm while cleaning up my work area. This garden pagoda is made from 6 table lamp bases, 5 glass jars, 6 old CD's, 1 section of a different lamp (for the top), and 1 finnel. What make this garden junk so neat is the way colors from the reflective sunlight bouncing off the CD's. I used a sand blaster to cut holes in the bottoms of the jars.

NEW YORK, NY -- (Marketwire) -- 12/12/12 -- Redbox Instant by Verizon, a joint venture between two market leaders, Redbox, a subsidiary of Coinstar, Inc. (NASDAQ: CSTR), and Verizon Communications Inc. (NYSE: VZ), unveiled further details of its soon-to-launch service and announced agreements with Hollywood studios and device manufacturers that will bring thousands of popular movies to consumers at home and on the go.
Later this month, the Redbox Instant by Verizon beta product will launch to consumers. Priced at $8.00 per month, Redbox Instant by Verizon offers a high value subscription package that combines unlimited streaming of thousands of popular movies, including titles from premium network EPIX, with four one-night credits per month for the latest movie releases on DVD at Redbox® kiosks. For $1 more, or $9.00 per month, customers can opt to redeem their four credits for rentals on Blu-ray Disc at the kiosk.
By combining both disc and digital movie formats, Redbox Instant by Verizon subscriptions offer consumers access to Hollywood's newest releases, as well as a rich catalog of popular movies, all for a great price. Customers can also use Redbox Instant by Verizon without a subscription and select new releases available for purchase or rental, or simply reserve for pick up at their local Redbox kiosk location, giving movie-lovers more choice and flexibility in how they watch their favorite films.
"We are building a compelling entertainment choice through our ability to support both physical and digital distribution of movies that people love, made possible by the depth of relationships we've established with top Hollywood studios and distribution partners," said Shawn Strickland, CEO, Redbox Instant by Verizon.
Through the agreement with EPIX, Redbox Instant by Verizon's subscription customers will be able to instantly stream new releases such as Mission Impossible: Ghost Protocol and The Hunger Games from EPIX's studio partners, Viacom's Paramount Pictures (NASDAQ: VIA) and (NASDAQ: VIA.B), Lionsgate (NYSE: LGF), and MGM 90 days after they premiere in the traditional premium window.
"Redbox Instant by Verizon will be an exciting new service for consumers in the digital entertainment marketplace and we are thrilled to be their partner, providing our movies from some of the world's leading studios," said Mark Greenberg, president and CEO of EPIX. "We have a long and successful relationship with Verizon FiOS, which was our first distribution partner at the launch of EPIX, and we are excited to build on that relationship with Redbox Instant. We are confident that the movies we have will be a popular and important part of the success of this new service."
Movie content on Redbox Instant by Verizon will be bolstered by electronic sell-through (EST) and video-on-demand (VOD) rental agreements with major studios. New releases from Lionsgate, NBCUniversal, Paramount Pictures, Relativity and Sony Pictures Home Entertainment will be available in EST and VOD formats and will allow Redbox Instant by Verizon to support and provide multi-screen access to movies.
Avail TVN, the leading multiplatform video services provider, will deliver subscription and transactional studio content. Redbox Instant by Verizon also previously announced a content licensing agreement with Warner Bros. Home Entertainment.
At launch, Redbox Instant by Verizon will be offered via the web, as well as through home entertainment, tablet and mobile devices, including iOS®, Android, Samsung® Blu-ray Players and TVs with SmartHub, LG Smart TV and Blu-ray Players, and Google TV. More devices will be announced in the coming months.
"Samsung's connected customers are very hungry for new services that provide the best movies on multiple devices," said Eric Anderson, Vice President of Content and Product Solutions, Samsung Electronics America, Inc. "Redbox Instant by Verizon provides our customers with the latest in Hollywood entertainment choice, control and discovery."
Redbox's 10 years of offering customers the newest releases at great value, coupled with Verizon's leadership in On-Demand and Digital Distribution of movies, has set the foundation for how Redbox Instant by Verizon will deliver content and value to the consumer. Redbox Instant by Verizon is working with movie studios to secure the freshest content selection, and intends to tap heavily into pop culture events and social conversations to help influence and surface relevant movie titles to consumers.
Starting later this month, Redbox Instant by Verizon will open to public beta and consumers will be invited to explore the service and enjoy their first subscription month free. Thousands of movie fans have already signed up at RedboxInstant.com to be among the first to try the service and experience a fun, simple way to discover the best Hollywood entertainment.

The list of 'new paradigm' technologies that now surrounds us appears to be at an all time high. From cloud computing and Big Data analytics to Bring Your Own Device (BYOD) and the Internet of Things (IoT), today we have to deal with what the industry likes to call 'paradigm shifts' at every level of IT. This is disruption; of course, we understand that – change is almost always disruptive.

When fighting is no longer relegated to the ground, but can also take place in the air.
Common in modern war video games, air strikes are usually used to take out large targets such as enemy vehicles or buildings. Laser designators are often used by the player to illuminate the target for a massive aerial attack.
A barrel roll is a maneuver in which an object makes a complete rotation on its longitudinal axis while following a helical path, approximately maintaining its original direction.
The physical release came with a bluetooth headset that could be used for voice chatting online
Camping is when an individual or group stays in the same general area typically with the mentality of putting the opposing players at an unfair disadvantage.
A game in which the object is for each team to retrieve the opponent's flag and return it to their own base. Typically used in multiplayer first-person shooter games.
Cloaking is to become invisible, or become close to invisible depending on strength of the ability or item.
A sight placed on the HUD used to aim and provide a point of reference to the player when looking and interacting with the game world. Although they often aim weapons, they have a variety of uses and have appeared in many games in many different forms.
Some games let players customize their character (or characters). Degree of customization may vary, with some games simply allowing to choose between different types of clothes, while others provide more detailed tinkering of features such as the distance between a character's eyes or hair color.

Greatest hits is a general term for re-releases of games which have sold a certain number of copies, as part of a program managed by the console manufacturer.
A style of play in multiplayer gaming with the purpose of annoying, irritating and angering opposing players, to take the fun out of gaming.
As games become bigger and more technically advanced, games increasingly require users to go through a small initial install before playing.
Whether it be a close up shotgun blast, far away sniper rifle, explosive, or backstab, the "one hit kill" is a popular kill strategy. Usually hard to master and even harder to avoid, the instant kill is loved and hated by gamers everywhere.
It's arguably the one move that symbolizes the medium to those outside it. The ability to jump, be it onto building, onto platforms, or onto skulls, is one of the all time most important abilities ever put in a video game.
A standard in nearly all competitive online shooters, the Kill Feed is the live on-screen update of the kills in an multiplayer game, providing updates as to whom is killing whom, as well as other important events.
King of the Hill is a popular game mode where the players have to stay in a designated area of a map to gain points. This mode is becoming increasingly popular in shooters.

I remember Digimon Kairi and Gatoman were my favs.
A few months ago my brother and I were cleaning up our shed and we went through our old stuff. I got the toys box xD and found my brothers figures of Pattamons ultimate form and um...Agumons second form ^^;; (my parents did the 'your a girl so we buy you girl toys')
I think it's the third season...the one where Kairi keeps a camera around her neck instead of a whistle? That rectangular device they all had, I found one in my old box.
I can't believe I ever forgot about Digimon. I loved that series so much when I was younger.
Thanks so much for bringing back great memories! :2thumbs:

"In '05 I thought about leaving the city. I've been here 17 years. I spent my first 11 in West Africa--Liberia. I stay home. To me the problem is the hip-hop community. It disappoints me because I used to frequent those gatherings, the clubs and stuff like that. I stopped a long time ago."

This neighborhood is getting a lot better. People are speaking out and coming forward when they see things. They're cleaning up the parks. There are college kids coming in to tutor in the church. It's a good thing."

"Andre Mathis went to jail for abusing children, both sexually and physically. He is also known for beating and stalking women. He is the last person you should get advise from on how to stop violence. He is a piece of trash!"
" First of all, Andre Mathis' real name is Aundra Bruce Mathis. I sincerely doubt that he is a construction worker, too. When I knew him, he was selling his body to gay men out of Pentoney"s Bar. He is a PEDIPHILE, CHILD ABUSER, WOMAN ABUSER, LOSER, and a poor excuse for a man, a waste of his father's sperm, and should be incarcerated for the rest of his worthless life."
"Stop taking advise from people like Andre Mathis, Philly. This man is a sex-offender and a pediphile. Look up his criminal record. It's all documented. "

General Electric is in talks with Alstom to take over its global power business and a deal could be announced in the coming days, two sources familiar with the matter said on Friday.
No price tag was given for the deal, which could be announced in the coming days, according to the sources. The power business accounts for nearly three quarters of Alstom's 20.3 billion euro revenue.
One of the sources said the approach was initiated by Alstom and that its top shareholder Bouygues - which has a 29 percent stake - backed the proposed deal.
Alstom declined to comment. Bouygues could not immediately be reached for comment.

plant swap idea
We've all talked about trying to get a plant swap together in Maine...what if we posted what we each have extra to give away, and if someone is interested, and lives nearby, we could connect? I don't have a lot of extra stuff, since I just moved a year and a half ago, I'm just starting out again, but I've got some moss phlox(white and lavender) that I could easily give some pieces away if someone was interested. It spreads pretty quickly. I live in Windham and work in Scarborough.
I am not opposed to the idea but getting together would also be fun. I am in Saco and have lots of daylilies that will need to be thinned but not until after they bloom. First, I have no idea what they are (not good with labels) and second I want to enjoy them this year.
I have several hostas that I keep splitting and they just keep expanding, several bleeding hearts the same. Not sure what else but anytime I have been involved in a swap on the round robin forum, I just wander my yard and dig.
I'd come to a get together down 'south', I am a bit north of Brunswick. I have some Bachelor's Button (mine is white with blue/purple center), Forget-me-nots, mums (sort of a rust color, very hardy), and some very nice multicolor (purple/yellow/white) iris that are just opening up. Would love some creeping phlox and possibly some hosta.
When would you like to do this? You can certainly come here although I am in Saco near the ocean. Do you want to schedule it for the next couple of weeks? It gets way too busy during the fourth and I have company the weekend of the 20th but we could certainly get together for a brunch on a Saturday or Sunday. Any suggestions?
Hello ALl
I would love to be part of the plant swap.
I'm in the kennebunks.
I have Eqyptain Onion, Rose Campion, spearment, Sundrops,
lily of valley, maybe red dahlias if they come back. It has been so cold! I think I replanted them too early this year. I would love some hostas, daylilles, phlox, bleeding hearts. JUme 6 and 7th won't work for me but any other weekend would. How about sunday brunch June 14?
So.....Diene, are you game for hosting this plant swap? You name the date; maybe we could do a "potluck" brunch, everyone brings their plants they'd like to share along with a dish, donuts, muffins, bagels, coffee, or juice....what do you think? I think it would be a ball!! A Saturday works better for me.
I'd love to come but I have a graduating HS senior and that date will be too hectic for me. If you do it again next year, I'll be ready! I'm in the Rockland area. If there's anyone who would be willing to host one around here, it would more feasible for me this year. Or if anyone just wants to do a private swap, I'd do that, too.
HelLo all,
Is anyone still intersted in having a plant swap this month? If you are please post and let see what we can come up with. Maybe we can just swap online and just meet somewhere neutral like a beach to do the actual exchage of plants? Next saturday is still good for me
Blake South coastal Maine
I am so sorry that I disappeared, I have house guest for the next two weekends so I cannot host a plant swap and next saturday I also have a graduation to attend. I also do not have that much to swap right now, my irises are blooming so I do not want to disturb them. My lilies have not started and neither have my daylilies. I do have bleeding hearts, sedum & hostas I could split but I am now wondering if fall might not be a better time. I will pay more attention to this thread. I did check for a few days and there did not seem to be much interest.
I'm in Cumberland F, off Rt 88 (no waterviews) and interested in participating in a swap. Fall would be my first choice, but I'll happily keep an eye on the site! Very happy to have found it. hate to throw stuff away
Not organized enough to know what I need to dig the most, but Siberian Iris', pink astilbe, and several hostas are definitely on the list.
Hello Maine Gardeners,
Well, I guess we should just keep this thread going until we all can agree when to meet. It looks like a fall swap is what is people are leaning towards
Debbie, I would love to swap with you for your pink astilbe and hostas. What are you looking for? Anything in particular? If I don't have a plant that you need or want, I can always barter something else like a delicious apple knobby cake or a tarot card reading for them.
Hello Blake;
I have hostas that can be split. I am not good at keeping the tags that come with them but I have many different varities. I am in Saco so that is easy for you.
I would love an apple knobby cake especially if it comes with the recipe.
My neighbors dropped off some hen clams they had dug on the beach and I made clamcakes for the first time tonight. I am not a seafood lover but DH said it was wonderful.
The hardest thing was cleaning the clams. I will host a fall swap, we can even shoot for August if people would like.
Why doesn't someone pick a date and we will start planning.
Hello Diene,
Well it seems you are already into summer making clams cakes! When I lived in Baltimore we use to make crab cakes all the time.
It's okay if you don't know the name of the hostas, I don't keep names either. Yes, the apple knobby cake will come with recipe. Just let me know when you would like to make the exchnage.
That is good of you to offer to host a fall swap. August is fine with me too. I guess we will just have to wait as see who will suggest a date and who will be interested.
Maybe when we settle on a date, we should start a new thread stating the swap date to get others interested.
Hello Blake;
I think that is a wonderful idea, I will check with DH about his schedule or he will be cranky. Then we can decide from there. I was going to e-mail you privately about arranging a meeting time and date but you do not have that capability open on your page. Can you send me an e-mail. Thanks.
I have available:
globe bellflower Campanula Glomerata-- I think it is called Joan Elliot
Centaurea Hypoleuca - I think John Coutts
Miscellaneous day lilies
Siberian iris - beautiful reddish violet (actually, looking it up I wonder if it might be Oregon iris)
black raspberry
sundrops (oenothera)
tall meadow rue (thalictrum)
jointed violet
purple veronica longifolia
maybe poppies
I want
bleeding heart
actaea (black cohosh)
plants with peach/apricot colored flowrs-- verbascums, yarrows or?
golden marguerite
Japanese primrose
Japanese / fall blooming anemone
variegated foliage whatevers
I am in Gardiner-south of Augusta. Can trade now one-on-one or would love to participate in a group swap. Why don't we schedule a series month by month up and down the coast? I could do one in Mid-July, if there's enough interest in this part of the state. I am about 2 miles off Rt 295, a block off 201.
I have bleeding heart, golden marguerites, variegated hosta, variegated weigelia, yucca, a peachy quince that is putting out some new shoots.
Not sure about the variegated weigelia, I am not very good at rooting cuttings but you can certainly try.
Mid July is too crazy busy for me but if you are still looking for this in the fall, let me know.
Diene, I emailed you last week. I don't know if you got the email or not. But you can e mail me directly at firstname.lastname@example.com
drkala, I don't think I would be able to do a mid July swap.
But I do hope we all can get together to swap in August or September
drkala, I am right around the corner from you on the River Road in Richmond. I unfortunately don't have anything on your want list, but I would love to have a plant swap in our area in a few weeks. I have everything I mentioned in my previous post (Mums, Bachelors Button, Forget-me-nots, lots of iris). I also have lots of very hardy oregano - the purple flowers are a bee magnet, and I have some nice black eyed susans and some common orange daylily. I'm interested in some of your veronica. Any other folks out there in the greater Gardiner area?

How the Saints Save Christmas out today
The previously announced holiday add-on content for Saints Row IV, How the Saints Save Christmas, has been released along with this delightful trailer which explains the premise. Simply put, Santa Claus is apparently some kind of horrific monstrosity who plans to put all of the universe on the naughty list and only the Saints can stop him.
For my money, the best "evil Santa" in entertainment is the one found in Futurama, but I'm open to the possibility of that interpretation being unseated. Those antlers are pretty horrifying.

Fall Planting Sugar snaps
When should I plant sugar snaps for fall here in zone 7. We usually have frost(light) in mid to late october but the real cold doesn't set in till December. I have done this once and they did ok but I failed to write down when I planted the peas.
I plan on planting mine in September, but of course I'm in zone 9! Have you checked the North Carolina cooperative extension website? They have lots of pdfs in the vegetable section that might have the info you're looking for.
I haven't planted in the fall before but I would expect to harvest about 60 days after planting. So some time in November for me. I would count back about 70 days from your first expected light frost. I planted my spring crop in January and they survived a couple of (light) frosts with no problem (I covered them) so I'm not too worried about an unexpected cold front taking them out. :)
Down here on the Eastern shore of MD, I start planting mine Sep.15 every year. Three types, Anne, Lace II and regular sugar snap. All three rows are over a foot high and doing well. Just made a second sowing on the 28th and will do sucessive plantings every 10 or 12 days until Dec. Had a crop all last winter until about mid January. Make sure you soak them first and use a good soil innoculant. Got close to a 100 per cent germination this year. Plant fall lettuces and other crops in between rows. Gave up on garlic though.

East Tenn St 53
(3-6, 1-1 A-Sun)
(5) Tennessee 102
(11-2, 6-0 home)
7:00 PM ET, December 22, 2010
KNOXVILLE, Tenn. -- Tennessee coach Pat Summitt thinks the Lady Volunteers got a good reminder that all opponents, ranked or otherwise, need to be respected.Three days after playing passionately in an overtime win against then-No. 3 Stanford, the Lady Vols (No. 6 ESPN/USA Today, No. 5 AP) came out flat against an East Tennessee State team that had only won one of its last five games. They turned up the heat in the second half and pulled away for a 102-53 rout on Wednesday night."I lit into everybody at halftime," Summitt said. "They didn't come in with the level of respect that they should. They had one foot out the door."Tennessee (11-2) scored the first five points and used a 9-0 run to take a 23-11 lead with 12:30 in the first half. The Lady Buccaneers missed some open shots but were able to make it inside to the basket and pulled within eight points twice, but a 3-pointer by Kamiko Williams with 1:42 in the first half helped the Lady Vols take a 46-32 halftime lead.That wasn't good enough for Summitt."Halftime was ... it wasn't pretty," said Angie Bjorklund, who led Tennessee with 16 points. "She definitely got on us, which we needed. Before she even came in we were getting on each other. She basically said we didn't come out with any energy and that the second half needed to be different."It was definitely different. The Lady Vols turned up the tempo and did a better job of getting the ball inside, where they had a definite size advantage and scored 42 points. After shooting 44.1 percent in the first half, they shot 60 percent after the break.Bjorklund hit her fourth 3 of the night with 12:30 to go, which tied her with Shanna Zolman as Tennessee's all-time 3-point shooter with 266 treys.Taber Spani got a double-double with 15 points and 12 rebounds, and Kelley Cain joined her with 12 points and 10 rebounds. Glory Johnson added 15 points and Meighan Simmons had 13, extending the number of games she's scored in double figures to 13.ETSU (3-6) struggled with Tennessee's physical play in the paint and was called for 25 personal fouls -- 10 more than the Lady Vols, who hit 21-of-33 from the foul line.Tennessee outrebounded the Lady Bucs 53-34 and got 20 second-chance points. ETSU also committed 20 turnovers, which Tennessee turned into 26 points."We came out and did three of the four things I told them we had to do and that was be smart, play hard and take care of the basketball," Lady Bucs coach Karen Kemp said. "The fourth one unfortunately we were not able to accomplish, and that was knock down open shots. Overall I was pretty happy with the majority of the ballgame."Destiny Mitchell and Gwen Washington led ETSU with 10 points.It was the 21st meeting between the two teams, whose rivalry dates back 1924, when the Lady Vols were known as the Volettes. Still, schools took a break from playing after a 98-39 victory by Tennessee on Jan. 8, 1986, and a string of 10 games under Summitt in which Tennessee outscored ETSU by an average 38 points."Honestly, I like playing ranked teams because I like the spotlight on our team," Washington said. "Even though Tennessee is the home team, the crowd does get our team into it too. I just like playing in the big crowds. It doesn't make us nervous or anything like that."

Minister's Moment: Hungering and Thirsting
Hungering and Thirsting
Matthew 5:1-12
Most of us don't know what it's like to be starving. We use the word a lot. If it's mid-afternoon and we haven't eaten since breakfast we say, "I'm starving! Let's get something to eat."—but that isn't really starving. Starving is when we haven't eaten in several days and can't get anything to eat, either because there is nothing to eat or because we can't afford to buy food. Most of us have never been in that position.

We got a normal years rainfall already
Looks like the drought is finally broken. According to my rain gauge we already got 14.5 inches of rain in Fullerton in north Orange County, thanks to the additional 2.5 inches we got yesterday and this morning. It would really help if we got maybe 17 to 20 inches total this rainy season. I expect to see a lot of green this year.
The really good thing is this rain will leach the salt buildup out of the soil caused by years of watering with Colorado River water that comes out of the hose.
Oh, absolutely. So much here on my property was really, really struggling by the end of summer with water bills getting higher and higher and me trying to water less. Everything is fresh and lush and healthy now, soil has been cleansed, everything is thriving and happy. I heard it mentioned on the weather report that our El Nino rains would continue through mid-spring and I'm hoping that means a much later start to my 'watering' season. I have a large sweep of echium fastuosums that were really in bad shape and I figured that they were nearing the end of their 5-6 year lifespan...now they are absolutely beautiful once again.
Nope, sorry the drought is not broken. It can take up to 3 years of excessive amounts to get relief from a drought. Just cuz you got normal doesn't mean the reserviors are more than full to last. The wish for 20 inches won't last long enough.
"The Colorado River, the other major source of imported supplies for Metropolitan, has experienced drought conditions for eight of the last nine years." for more info on that statement follow the link below.
Here is a link that might be useful: water alert
Yesterday/this morning was incredible, just non-stop heavy rain, more even than any day of the Jan. storms. I'm still left wondering about runoff from these high-intensity storms vs the recharge rate of the groundwater & aquifers and whether a few superstorms can equal months of steady rain for non-irrigated lands.
Sure did me right though, as I had just weeded and transplanted some seedlings, so this watered them right in.
Not here in the south SF bay area-but in the north bay some of Marin county have already DOUBLED last years rain total. And they really need it since that exclusive area depends on five dinky resevoirs for ALL their water-no Sac river,Yosemite or Sierra's...just five giant ponds.
