The engine may develop a misfire due to worn valve seats. This fault will cause the Check Engine Light to illuminate. Our technicians tell us the misfire may or may not be felt while driving. They further recommend that both cylinder heads be removed and thoroughly inspected and repaired as necessary.

Most reported Chevrolet Suburban 1500 problems
Engine Misfire Due to Worn Valve Seat
Traction Control Activated
At low speeds vehicle went in to traction control mode, dealer spent 10000 mile trying to figure it out. Problem was front wheel sensors, fixed at 41,000 mile. Now at 76,000 mile same problem.
Injection system may need adjustment
Check Engine Light Due to Gas Cap Issue
A Loose or worn gas cap may cause Check Engine Light to illuminate.
Coolant Loss and/or Engine Overheating
A coolant leak may develop form the Intake manifold gasket causing overheating complaints. The coolant leak may be internal allowing coolant to mix with the engine oil, this condition can result in internal engine damage. Be aware that this problem is often mistaken as a blown head gasket.
Oil leaks from the valve cover gaskets
The valve cover gaskets may develop engine oil leaks.
turn signals blink fast
turn signals work fine until brakes are applied and then at least triple in blinking speed
Burning Smell Due to Valve Cover Gasket Leak
A burning smell may develop due to an oil leak form one or both valve cover gaskets. Resealing the valve cover will generally correct this concern. However, the valve covers should be inspected and replaced if damaged.
"Hard start" problems due to faulty glow plugs and wiring
Distributor may fail
Loose Steering & Alignment Issues
The pitman arm and/or lower ball joints may wear causing loose steering and alignment issues. Replacement of worn components will be necessary before the alignment can be properly set to specification.
Brake Lights Burning Out
The rear brake lights overheat resulting in the plastic lamp bulb connectors melting and finally the lamp itself breaks a filament. The service lamp filament which is the in the same bulb continues to operate. I tried fitting LED bulbs to try and reduce the current drain, but both burnt out as soon as the brakes were applied.
Front Differential Side and Carrier Bearing Failure
Growling Noise from front differential - replaced side and carrier bearings
Rear Differential Ring and Pinion Noise
Whining noise 40 mph - 60 mph - louder under load - quiet when coasting. Ring and Pinion going bad
Head Gasket Leak
Noticed white colored goo on oil dipstick during oil addition. Dealer indicated a failed head gasket. Solution is to replace the head gasket. Will also replace the valve cover which the dealer indicates is now a better design than the original cover. Dealer estimate is approx. $1200.

Please Recommend Seller for Adult Diapers?
Can anyone recommend a seller of adult diapers? Preferably on-line volume seller. I'm tired of spending a small fortune on Depends at big name pharmacies. And running out after three days...I have inquired about getting my hubby Medicaid, but we're not ready to make that step yet.
This thread is just a little down on this page.
Here is a link that might be useful: diaper sellers
Once you decide on which brand works best, you might want to check Amazon.com, especially as a Prime member. We buy extensively through A/Prime all thru the year, so the 2-day (free) shipping is more than amortized for us. It is so much easier to shop on-line and checkout through A/Prime; you can do an order literally in less than 30 seconds.
We have had no security issues with A/Prime; this is one of the very, very few websites where I do leave my credit card on file.
For certain items, I use the "Subscribe & Save" where they ship automatically. If you don't need a shipment, you can always skip one - they send an email reminder, so it's easy.
Remember that some vendors charge sales tax and some don't, it depends on whether Amazon is shipping from their own warehouses or if the vendor is selling directly through A's Marketplace which is actually a separate entity for tax purposes. 2-day shipping is guaranteed only from Amazon's own warehouses; the Marketplace usually takes a couple of days to get the order and pack it up, then the shipping date is 2 days after that.
A comment about not paying tax's on your purchase. Depending on what you are purchasing your own state may not tax but in some on the state tax form is a line where you enter amount of non-taxed purchases, mostly internet purchases, Then you are supposed to pay the missed taxes by April 15 each year. Some states have sued Amazon and other vendors to force them to collect taxes. Was in federal appeals court last time I saw anything in the news.
Using Amazon Prime if you purchase many items can save money on the shipping.
Re: sales tax on on-line purchases:
Yes, that's why I pay sales tax on CA vendors who participate in Amazon's Marketplace. Any state where Amazon has a physical presence must collect sales tax; Amazon finally caved in to states' pressures.
However, IF the independent vendor has no physical presence in my state but is shipping it to me from another state, then I am NOT obligated to pay CA sales tax or report it on my state income tax.
Amazon always indicates any amount of sales tax if you go through the regular "cart" checkout. Or, if you're like me and use the One-Click ordering, it can be seen almost immediately under "Open Orders" - you have 30 minutes to cancel an order made in error.
Realistically? Sales tax is a modest amount and the benefits of:
- not having to drive my car around
- not having to find parking
- no schlepping all over a store looking for sometimes-obscure little items or a specific brand
- no waiting in line
- no dealing with surly check-out clerks
- most important: perusing user reviews to see if a new product I'm interested in, actually works as intended or if something else would work better (consumer reviewers can, and do, name other brands/models -- I've done it myself as one of Amazon's top consumer reviewers).
...all make Amazon Prime well worth using them for 85% of my non-grocery purchases.
janie, i have large sized depends briefs i can send to you at a discounted price still boxed and in my home. shipping would need to be paid though. I have several cases. I used them for my mother and she passed away. If you used the Depend brief style in large size please let me know.
I am having to supply my 98 yr old grandmother with "Pads". She likes Poise but they are so expensive. I live out of her state of TX in TN so I would send them. Any other brand names come to mind? Also she wraps a paper towel around them too--she thinks a couple of drops that she needs to change. Driving me crazy! Help please.
I've bought diapers for my handicapped daughter for years from HDIS.com. or you can call their 800 number. they carry all brands and sizes and just about everything else you need. My daughter wears the second smallest size that is usually only sent to institutions, but they carry them. And I get great service and a reliable company.

A portrait of Damo,
cerca October or November 1995 where he borrowed my (dyed black) Irish Army Dress coat and became his hero James Dean. He knew Jimmy Dean in his heart and he was perfectly at home in front of the camera. He was not trying to re-create an existing portrait but create his own. I just took the picture. I overburnt the print but now I feel that this picture remains the way it was then, scratches, stains and all.
A great deep voice, the Radio DJ of DJ's and huge potential as an artist.
In memory of Damien 1971-1996
Great potrait!
Did Rod Steiger borrow that coat, when he played Napoleon in the film Waterloo?
Classic style to this. Very well done.
I liek this picture!
great portrate.
the james dean style will always be in fashion!!
love it.
Wonderful work, scratches stains and all. :-)
Stunning photograph. Such a cool atmosphere.
Don't care what you did to it….I love this !

2015 is one of those lucky years when the Lunar New Year falls just before the weekend, and extending the long holiday weekend for us too, and we got to enjoy a good 4.5 day stretch. Last year's family pictures taken over the festive season didn't look so good on account that Peter was suffering from a bout of mosquitoes bites. We did better this year, since Peter was (slightly) more able to listen to instructions to look good for pictures, though not by too much still!
Lighting was a bit off for the first picture above – you can see that the right side of the frame looks a bit darker than the rest of the picture. The Metz flashgun wasn't producing sufficient output. I guess that was because the flash head had not been fully turned to point upwards but at a slight off-angle, and that might have caused the flash gun to misunderstand how much light was required. The first picture had to be post-processed from the RAW file as a result. The flashgun was correctly adjusted for the second picture of the four of us at home, as it was taken an hour later.
One thing's for sure. My next camera is gonna feature built-in wireless control capability. I've had enough mucking around with third party wireless remote-controllers for the old Nikon DSLRs and for the current Olympus E-M5. The wireless remote controller for the latter almost didn't work on this occasion (I had to furiously jiggle the batteries a little). Otherwise, I would have been forced to use self-timers for the family pictures.
Olympus has just released the next iteration of the E-M5, nearly named the Mark II of the model. The new E-M5 II is a little better-specced for the most part, including providing support for a very high-resolution mode, and an improved IBIS (In-body image stabilization) that now offers up to 5 buffer stops for sloppy handholding technique LOL. Unfortunately, the continuous AF support from the more professional but also older E-M1 model did not go over, which makes it a little harder for enthusiasts deciding between the two which to go for. Decisions to make, maybe later this year!

The National Library has recently put out a request for tender for the digitisation of all of its Roman Catholic parish register microfilms. These microfilms cover 98% of the pre-1880 baptism, marriage and burial records kept by local parishes on the entire island, and are the single most important source of family history information for the vast majority of researchers. Indeed, in most cases they are the only source of family information before the start of state registration in 1864. They cover almost 1200 parishes on 520 reels and represent one of the most enduring achievements of the National Library between the 1950s and the 1970s. Having them available on-line will revolutionise Irish research.

Albert Austin Massey: Home Child
by M.C. Moran •
Albert Austin Massey was born in London, England about 1884,* the son of Thomas Massey and Mary Armitage (his parents' names come from his RC parish marriage record, and also from the Ontario civil marriage record which was based on that parish register). He emigrated to Canada around 1895 (at about 10 or 11 years of age), where he ended up in Renfrew Co., Ontario.

James Lewis: Home Child?
by M.C. Moran •
I came across the following record of an abjuration and baptism in the parish register for St. Isidore, South March (Carleton Co., Ontario):
On the twenty sixth day of January one thousand eight hundred and eighty three, I the undersigned curate of this mission baptized James born about the month of January (in England) Eleven years ago of the lawful marriage of Mr Lewis and a mother whose name cannot be arrived at. The godfather was James Kirwan and the godmother Mary Kirwan. J.A. Sloan, pt.1

William Charles Burton: Home Child
by M.C. Moran •
William Charles Burton was born in England about 1882 and came to Canada in the 1890s (possibly 1898) as a Home Child. Several records describe him as a "Barnardo Boy."
In the 1891 English census, there is a William C. Burton found in the village of Cheddar, Somerset, in the household of George Wall (occupation: Market Gardener) and his wife Susan (occupation: Caretaker of Children), along with another orphan, Fred W.G. Owen. Fred Owen's age is given as 10, and William C. Burton's age as 8; both boys are listed as Boarders and Scholars (i.e., they are said to be attending school), and both are said to be "From Dr. Barnardo's Home, Birthplace unknown." I'd say there's a very good chance that this is the William Charles Burton who ended up in Renfrew Co., Ontario, Canada.

Translating French Records: Baptismal Records
by M.C. Moran •
If you're looking for Roman Catholic records in the Ottawa Valley area, you're almost certain to run into some French entries in the parish registers. But no worries, and please do not panic. Even if you don't speak a word of French beyond "bonjour" and "merci beaucoup," you canread and understand the relevant records.

Where was Patrick Killeen born?
by M.C. Moran •
The first settler to locate [in March township] was Captain John Benning Monk, of H.M. 97th Regiment, who arrived in June, 1819, having been paddled and portaged in boats from Montreal, where he had the misfortune to lose his baby daughter. Leaving his wife in Hull, Captain Monk proceeded by river to March, where, with his soldier servants, he constructed a rude shanty, to which he brought Mrs. Monk, and which was aptly named 'Mosquito Cove' by the much-tormented occupants……Captain Monk had ten children, and among his numerous descendants are several prominent citizens of Ottawa. One son is G.W. Monk, ex-M.P.P. for Carleton County, and Mrs. Chas. McNab, a well-known member of our society, to whom the writer is indebted for many details of this sketch, is a daughter. The eldest son, the late Benning Monk, was the second child born in March; Patrick Killean, whose parents were servants of Captain Monk, and who afterwards took up land in South March, being the first.2

Conditional Baptism
by M.C. Moran •
While going through RC parish registers in search of your Catholic ancestors, you may come across the phrase "baptized conditionally" or "baptized sub conditione," or, in French, "baptisé(e) sous condition." What did the padre mean, you may wonder, by this seemingly cryptic communication?
What the priest meant, basically, was that he had performed the baptism with words to the effect of, "If you are not already baptized, I baptize you."

Sorting through Ryans in Renfrew County is an exercise in patience and perseverance. Ryan is, in Carol McCuaig's words, "one of the most popular surnames" in the county.1

Irish Origins through Canadian Sources: Introduction
by M.C. Moran •
On my father's side, all of my ancestors came from Ireland, some arriving in Canada as early as 1820 or so, some arriving during the Famine. On my mother's side, a little over half of my ancestors came from Ireland, with all but one branch emigrating during the Famine (the other almost half of my maternal ancestors are French Canadian).

Tony Matelli's hyper-real sculptures of meat and vegetable portraits, sprouting weeds, stacked cards, sleepwalking humans and malicious chimpanzees captures your attention with immediacy, a visual poignancy that would make it hard not to react with curiosity and amusement. This initial response opens the door to a slightly somber and disturbing environment where each series tackle concepts of death, resurrection, failure, pessimism, loss and reinvention. Matelli's own personal concerns are projected onto these works buliding a relationship between object and artist that is further extended to the public.

Daniel Zeller
Daniel Zeller's practice involves meticulous and obsessive pattern making creating forms that resemble maps, isolated body parts, and blood streamed arteries. I'm drawn by the labor intensive repetition, its lingering between sci-fi staging and topographical landscape, and the undulating and vibrating ebb and flow of each compacted form. Step close to the surface and be astounded by the articulate and precise thin lines, step back and let your eyes adjust to the accumulated network of organisms pulsing throughout the picture plane.

The Brooklyn-based multimedia artist Daniel Turner just finished a group show at Photo Epicenter in San Francisco. Turner uses a number of nonconventional materials, including camphophenique, tar, vinyl, umbrellas, and life jackets and in so doing questions fundamental ideas of beauty and utility.

Hit the fade button on bad friends
DEAR MISS LONELYHEARTS: I choked down the pink and purple flowers out of a gourmet salad because my friends teased me and forced me to do it, and then I puked them right back up at the table because I was so upset. They all said, "Ewww," and mocked me, and pulled away from me, laughing while the server cleaned up after me. I ran out of the restaurant and took off on the bus, crying all the way home. My mom says they are "mean girls" and bullies and pointed to every other nasty thing they had done to me. She says, "Cut them out of your life now." Easy for her to say. There are 24 hours in every day, I am 16, and they are the only friends I have. There's a whole summer to go before school starts again and I can't make it alone. What do you suggest for me? -- Lonely Girl, New to Winnipeg
Dear Lonely: Rather than cutting off bad friends, it's often better to fade them out and fade others in. Make a new job become your smokescreen. Getting a job sharply decreases the amount of time you have to spend with these girls and provides you with ready-made excuses to see them far less. There are only four or five weeks to go before school starts and many students quit summer jobs in August to have a little holiday, meaning employers are left in the lurch and desperate. Get your mother to help you make a skills-style resumé, listing everything you can do, and look for a part-time job at a fast-food chain or an ice cream palace. That will eat up your time and help you make spending money. At school, join some extra-curricular activities that introduce you to new guys and girls who share your real interests. Your mom is right, you know. These girls are not real friends, so fade them down to casual friends, while you search for a nicer group.
Dear Miss Lonelyhearts: I'm 44 and my husband is 45 going on 25. He thinks he's really hot with his new hair transplants and his dye-job. Now he's shaved his entire body, started "body sculpting," has a stupid new tattoo and wears muscle shirts inappropriately. I think he looks like a fool. Did I mention his new car? It has a lot more go-power than he does. I was putting up with this nonsense as best I could until last night when he came home late with orange lipstick on his neck. I asked him who'd been with, and he turned deep red to his ears, and said, "Out with the guys." I said, "So tell me, which guy wears orange lipstick and kissed you on the neck?" He turned around, got back in his car, roared down the street and didn't come home for six hours. Now we're not talking at all. What happens now? Where did my loving husband go? I am so lost. -- New Statistic? River Heights
Dear Statistic: Your husband is having a loud mid-life crisis. You can become a statistic or fight it several different ways. Now that the lipstick evidence is in, and he has a place to disappear to for six hours at a whack, it's time to find out what's up. Hire a detective to start in a few weeks when your husband thinks this has fight died down and you are letting it slide and he can go back to a possible lover. If he has one, you can suggest two things -- a break up or an open marriage where you are free to see other men as well. That idea will shock him, and that's a good thing, whether you do anything yourself or not. Now there's two in the game and jealousy comes roaring back. Think you may want him to leave? Don't warn him, but quietly see a domestic lawyer he doesn't know and make a game plan. Then announce you're ready to go. At that point you can suggest relationship counselling, and he may be worried and upset enough to go. If picturing that process somehow disappoints you, then you know you don't want the relationship anymore either.

Innovation efforts won't succeed if the teams behind them don't understand what they're supposed to be aiming for or how their endeavors will be measured, writes Scott Anthony. "Make sure you're clear about the rules of the game from the beginning -- particularly the why and the how -- to save time and rework later," Anthony advises.

Report details the year's progress, but a lot of work remains
Since President Obama's statement in May 2009 that the "cyber threat is one of the most serious economic and national security challenges we face as a nation" and "America's economic prosperity in the 21st century will depend on cybersecurity," he has appointed a cybersecurity coordinator, established a military cyber command and initiated national strategies for trusted identity and incident response. The Commerce Department is supporting deployment of the DNS Security Extensions protocols to secure the Internet's Domain Name System.
A team also is updating the Comprehensive National Cyberspace Initiative, established by President Bush in the previous administration.
"This revised Presidential Directive will further elaborate and advance implementation of the strategy outlined by the [Cyberspace Policy Review] and executed through the CNCI," the report says.

But much work remains to be done in securing the nation's national security, civil and private-sector information infrastructures.
"There are things happening, but it is fair to say there is not an exhaustive list of accomplishments," said Larry Clinton, president of the Internet Security Alliance, who attended Wednesday's White House meeting at which the report was released.
The meeting included representatives from federal, state and local government; law enforcement; industry; academia; and civil liberty and privacy advocacy groups. Clinton said the fact that the president spoke at the meeting, which was chaired by Cybersecurity Coordinator Howard Schmidt and also included Commerce Secretary Gary Locke and Homeland Security Secretary Janet Napolitano, was encouraging.
"It was a statement of commitment at the highest level to continue to evolve the partnership" between the public and private sectors in securing cyberspace, he said.
The president early on identified cybersecurity as an important issue in his administration and ordered a comprehensive review of executive cybersecurity policy. Delays in releasing the report and difficulty in finding a person to fill the position of cybersecurity coordinator highlighted the challenges of securing the interconnected, critical cyberspace. Repeated reports of breaches and frequent government and private-sector studies continue to point out the vulnerability of information technology systems to penetration.
Among the accomplishments noted in the progress report is the new guidance from the Office and Management and Budget for complying with the Federal Information Security Management Act, which focuses on real-time awareness rather than static assessments.
"This change means that agencies will be able to identify vulnerabilities faster and actively protect against attacks," the report states. "The new approach builds on government and industry best practices that will make our cybersecurity efforts more effective."
A National Incident Response Plan now is in final draft and will be tested in September as part of the Cyber Storm III exercise. It will be revised based on lessons learned in that exercise. A National Strategy for Trusted Identity in Cyberspace has been released for public comment and is expected to be released in final form by the end of the year. National Security Presidential Directive 54 and Homeland Security Presidential Directive 23, which established CNCI and key cybersecurity roles and responsibilities in government, also are being updated.
Under CNCI, the Trusted Internet Connection initiative is reducing the number if Internet access points in federal networks, and the Einstein program now is providing intrusion detection for 12 of 19 major federal agencies. DHS has established a National Cybersecurity and Communications Integration Center, integrating existing incident response mechanisms into a unified operations center. The department also opened the Industrial Control System – Computer Emergency Response Team facility to address cybersecurity threats to critical infrastructure control systems.
On the legal front, the United States is stepping of law enforcement efforts against hackers and cyber criminals.
"The Secret Service has resolved over 1,100 cases and cracked the Heartland Payment Systems case that compromised over 130 million credit cards," the report noted. "Albert Gonzalez, a main defendant in that case, was sentenced to 20 years in prison."
Clinton said he was encouraged that Schmidt spoke of cybersecurity in economic rather than technical terms.
"We have to increase the price for attackers," Clinton said. "We are thinking of security too much as a technical, operational issue and it's really an economic issue. We want to focus on why the attacks occur."
The president and other officials reiterated in the meeting that the administration's approach to cybersecurity will be based on incentives for cooperation between the public and private sectors rather than on regulation, which was a message that industry representatives were happy to hear.

LOOKING for: Latke
Love potatoes and looking for new ways to prepare them
This is my favorite way of preparing potatoes:
Garlic Mashed Potato Casserole
4 lbs. potatoes (12 medium)
2 cloves garlic, crushed
8 oz. cream cheese, softened
1 cup sour cream
1/4 cup chives, chopped
1/2 tsp. paprika
1 T. butter, or more
2 tsp. salt 1/8 tsp. pepper
Cook potatoes and drain. Mash potatoes and add the remaining
ingredients. Dot with additional butter if desired. Bake at 350 for 30 minutes, or until lightly golden brown. can be baked and served in individual shredded potato basket, phyllo cup or potato shell.
Très Grand Pommes Anna
Source of Recipe
Cooks Illustrated November 2000
Recipe Introduction
Très Grand Pommes Anna .....
In this variation of Pommes Anna for Home Cooks (November/December 2000), a few extra tablespoons of butter and oil make this classic dish even more rich and decadent.
Do not slice the potatoes until you are ready to start assembling. Remember to start timing when you begin arranging the potatoes in the skillet no matter how quickly you arrange them, they will need 30 minutes on the stovetop to brown properly. Serves 8 to 10
List of Ingredients
4 1/2 pounds russet, Yukon Gold, or white potatoes, peeled and sliced 1/16- to 1/8-inch thick
7 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
1/2 cup vegetable or peanut oil, plus additional for greasing cookie sheet
Salt and ground black pepper
1. Toss potato slices with melted butter in large bowl until potatoes are evenly coated. Adjust oven rack to lower-middle position and heat oven to 450 degrees.
2. Pour oil into 12-inch heavy-bottomed ovenproof nonstick skillet; swirl to coat pan bottom and set skillet over medium-low heat. Begin timing and arranging potato slices starting in center of skillet. Sprinkle potatoes evenly with scant 1/4 teaspoon salt and ground black pepper to taste. Arrange second layer of potatoes working in opposite direction of first layer; sprinkle evenly with scant 1/4 teaspoon salt and ground black pepper. Repeat layering potatoes in opposite directions and sprinkling with salt and pepper until no slices remain (broken or uneven slices can be pieced together to form a single slice; potatoes will mound in center of skillet); continue to cook over medium-low heat until 30 minutes elapses from the time you began arranging potatoes in skillet.
3. Using bottom of 9-inch cake pan, press potatoes down firmly to compact. Cover skillet and place in oven. Bake until potatoes begin to soften, about 20 minutes. Uncover and continue to bake until potatoes are tender when paring knife is inserted in center and edge of potatoes near skillet is browned, about 10 minutes longer. Meanwhile, line rimless cookie sheet or back of baking sheet with foil and coat very lightly with oil. Drain off excess fat from potatoes by pressing potatoes into skillet with bottom of cake pan while tilting skillet to pour off fat.
4. Set foil-lined cookie sheet on top of skillet. With hands protected by oven mitts or potholders, hold cookie sheet in place with one hand and carefully invert skillet and cookie sheet together. Remove skillet. Carefully slide potatoes onto platter; cut into wedges and serve immediately.
Great Latkes
Latkes are traditionally eaten at Hanukkah, but they're a treat anytime you've got a craving for crispy, savory potato pancakes.
Let's start with the heart of every latke: the potatoes. For the best results, use russet potatoes. This variety is high in starch, and the starch is necessary to help the latke mixture stick together and form pancakes that don't fall apart. Most people choose to peel the potatoes before making latkes with them, but this is entirely a matter of taste. Leaving the potato skin on will add color and texture to your pancakes. If you leave the skin on, be sure to scrub the potatoes thoroughly with a vegetable brush. If you do peel them, though, be sure to keep them under water between peeling and shredding to prevent them from oxidizing. (Oxidation is what's happening when potatoes start turning unappetizing shades of pinkish-brown and gray.) Once your potatoes are either scrubbed or peeled, get all the rest of your ingredients ready; you'll need to work fairly quickly to get the mixture ready before the potatoes change color.
Latkes are traditionally made with a potatoes and onions, but there's no rule that says you have to make them the same every time. Jazz them up by shredding in sweet potatoes, apples, carrots, garlic, parsnips or zucchini. Just be sure that the majority of the mixture still consists of potatoes; other vegetables do not contain enough starch on their own to make the mixture stick together.
Just Grate!
Have the onions and any other veggies trimmed and peeled, have a piece of cheesecloth ready and waiting, and measure out the other ingredients your recipe calls for, such as matzo meal or flour, baking powder, eggs, cheese and seasonings. Now get ready to shred! If you have a food processor with a shredder attachment, this will make the process go faster, but a good old-fashioned hand-held grater will perform the job with flying colors too. Alternate the potato with the onion and other vegetables while you shred in order to keep the potatoes from oxidizing too quickly. (And keep a tissue nearby -- those onion fumes can really get to you!) If you want lacy latkes with rough, crispy edges, shred those potatoes coarsely. If you prefer denser latkes with smooth edges, use the fine side of the grater.
Squeeze your Spuds
Now for one of the most important parts of the latke-making process: squeezing out the potatoes. Wet, juicy potatoes make for soggy, greasy latkes that fall apart in the pan because wet items will not brown well in oil. The potatoes need to be dry and the oil needs to be good and hot, so that the exterior of the latke will quickly sear to a crispy finish and prevent the thing from absorbing too much grease. To squeeze out the potato mixture, place it in a piece of cheesecloth and squeeze it out with brute force. When you cannot get any more liquid out, open up the cheesecloth, stir the mixture around a little, and then squeeze it some more.
Empty the contents of the cheesecloth into a mixing bowl and mix in the remaining ingredients. If you're using matzo meal, let the mixture sit for a few minutes in order to allow the matzo to soak up any remaining liquid. Now it's time for the part we've all been waiting for: the frying!
Fry Away!
Heat up a pan with vegetable oil 1/4 to 1/2 inch deep. When the oil has reached a temperature of about 350 degrees F (175 degrees C), it's time to fry! If you don't have a deep-fat thermometer, you can test the temperature of the oil by dropping a small amount of latke mixture into the pan. If it turns golden brown within one minute, the oil is ready. Form the latkes by carefully placing spoonfuls of the mixture into the hot oil, then flattening the mounds with a spatula. Fry until nicely browned on the bottom, then flip the latkes with a spatula and brown the other side. Drain the latkes on paper towels and serve them immediately if possible. If you aren't able to serve them right away, keep them in the oven at 200 degrees F (95 degrees C) on a pan or platter. To keep them nice and crispy, don't stack them up, and refrain from covering them.
Now dish up some applesauce and sour cream and get ready to savor the best latkes you've ever made!
Potatoes in Herbed Cream
Recipe Link: source:"The Herbfarm Cookbook" by Jerry Traunfeld (Scribner, $40).
Just homey scalloped potatoes, really, but with generous quantities of whole herb sprigs steeped in the cream. The technique of infusion works perfectly here. In addition to being fast, it allows just the right amount of flavor to be released into the cream, which in turn is absorbed by the potatoes, making them taste as if they were grown deep in an herb bed. This recipe is highly indulgent, using whole milk, cream, and butter. If you must, feel free to substitute low-fat milk and half & half for the milk and cream, but it won't be nearly as delicious.
1 cup whole milk
1/2 cup heavy cream
4 cloves garlic
3 4-inch sprigs fresh marjoram or Italian oregano
2 4-inch sprigs fresh rosemary
3 4-inch sprigs fresh thyme
1 2-inch sprig fresh sage
6 fresh bay laurel leaves, torn, or 2 dried plus 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
3/4 teaspoon salt
Freshly ground black pepper to taste
2 tablespoons unsalted butter, softened
2 large russet (Idaho) potatoes (about 1 1/2 pounds)
Place the milk and cream in a small saucepan over medium
heat. Smash the garlic cloves with the side of a chef's knife and remove the peels. When the milk and cream are boiling, add the garlic, herb sprigs, bay leaves, salt, and pepper.
Bring the mixture back to a boil, then immediately remove it from the heat, cover, and let steep for 30 minutes or longer while you
prepare the potatoes.
Gratin. Preheat the oven to 425 degrees. Butter a shallow 1 1/2 -quart baking dish with 1 tablespoon of the butter. Peel the potatoes, slice them 1/8 inch thick and arrange them in the dish.
Bring the herbed cream back to a simmer. Hold a large fine sieve over the baking dish and pour the cream through it and over the potatoes, coating all the slices. The liquid will not completely cover the potatoes at this point. Dot with the remaining 1 tablespoon butter.
Bake until the top is nicely browned and the potatoes are tender, 30 to 35 minutes. Halfway through the cooking, use the back of a large spoon to lightly press down any potatoes that are not yet submerged into the cream.
Makes 4 servings.
3-5 large Potatoes grated
1 large Onion grated
2 Eggs beaten
2-3 tblsp. plain Flour
Salt and Pepper to taste
Mix all together
Heat veg.Oil in fryingpan, put mixture in pan, 2 tablespoon to 1 Latke brown then turn and brown the other side. Make sure the oil is not too hot. Serve hot with cold Applesauce..
You like potatoes? Here you go! The last one, for "Holiday Latkes" probably has the answers to all your questions about matzoh meal & etc. It's pretty classic!
Blessings on your kitchen!
3 cups cubed raw potatoes 2 eggs
1/4 cup flour 1 small onion, quartered
1 tsp. salt 1/4 tsp. baking powder
Wash, peel and cut up potatoes. Pat dry with paper towel. Put all ingredients into blender. Cover. Press "chop" button for 10 seconds. Use spatula to press down potaoes if necessary. Stop motor when using spatula. Pour batter onto a hot, greased griddle, about 1/4 cup for each pancake. Brown and turn once to brown the other side. Yield: 4 servings
An Irish Dish
3 c. chopped kale
4 medium Irish potatoes
6 scallions, chopped
1/2 to 1 c. milk or half & half
1/2 c. butter, melted
salt and pepper to taste
1/8 tsp. ground mace, optional
Optional: a teaspoon of caraway seeds may be added if you like.
Cube potatoes and boil in water until very tender. Drain and mash well. Heat a deep serving dish by leaving it on the back of the stove while the potatoes are cooking.
While the potatoes are boiling, stir scallions and kale in a heavy skillet over medium heat for 5 minutes. The water that remains on the kale leaves after washing is sufficient moisture for cooking. Heat the milk over low heat and combine with the kale and scallions.
Combine all the ingredients except the butter together until the mixture is light green and fluffy. Turn the colcannon into the heated deep serving dish. Make a well in the center and pour in the melted butter. Serve with a some of butter in each helping.
Another way of serving this dish is to omit pouring the melted butter in a well in the colcannon. Instead, beat the butter into the mashed potatoes unmelted. If you don't like too much butter, you can decrease the amount to 4 tbsp. for this method. Then turn the colcannon into a deep baking dish. Bake for 15 to 20 minutes. Serve immediately and as hot as possible. Garnish with a sprig of fresh parsley.
(Every good cook should keep a pot of parsley growing on the window sill!)
FADGE (Irish Latkes)
2 lbs. baking potatoes, preferably russet, peeled and cut in quarters
1 egg, beaten
4 tbsp. butter
3 tbsp. flour
1 1/2 tbl. chopped parsley, chives and lemon thyme (optional)
1/4 c. of flour seasoned with salt and pepper
Few drops of whole milk, if needed
Butter for frying
Place potatoes in a pan of cold water to cover and bring to a boil. Boil gently until tender, 15 to 20 minutes. Drain well, and mash thoroughly. Add the beaten egg, 4 tbsp. butter, 3 tbsp. flour, and herbs and mix well. Add a few drops of milk if the mixture is too thick. Shape the "dough" into a 1-inch thick round, and slice it into eight wedges, like the wedges of a pie. You can also form the dough into eight smaller rounds, or potato cakes. Dip each wedge or round into the 1/4 cup of flour seasoned with salt and pepper. Fry on a lightly greased, or melt butter in a skillet and fry over medium heat until crusty and golden, about four or five minutes on each side.
Serve hot, topped with butter, if desired.
1 cup cooked potatoes, peeled and mashed
1/4 cup oil
1 tsp. salt
3 cups flour, mixed with 1 tsp. baking powder
Combine and mix well:
1 1/2 cups cooked, mashed potatoes
1/2 tsp. salt, 1/4 tsp. pepper
1/2 cup minced onions, sauteed in 1/4 cup margarine or butter
Mix well. Make a well in the center of the flour mixture and add 1/2 cup cold water. Knead into a smooth dough. Let rest on a lightly floured wooden board and cover with a bowl or cloth for 1/2 an hour.
Cut dough into 4 sections. Roll out as thin as possible. Cut into rectangles 2" x 3" for regular knishes, or smaller for appetizers. Place filling in the center of the rectangle and fold the 2 shorter ends in towards the center first. Then fold the two longer ends over each other. Bake on a well oiled baking sheet, folded side down, until golden, about 1/2 hour in a 350" F oven.
2 eggs
2 large potatoes, peeled, coarsely grated, and drained
1 small apple, peeled and grated
1 small onion, diced
1 tsp. salt
2 tbsp. flour or motzah meal
1/4 tsp. baking powder
4 tbsp. vegetable oil
Sour cream
Beat eggs lightly in a medium bowl. Add potatoes, apple and onion and blend well. Add salt, flour and baking powder. Mix thoroughly. Heat 2 tbsp. of oil in a large skillet until hot, but not smoking. Drop pancake mixture by tablespoonfuls (draining off any excess liquid) into the hot oil. Fry and lightly brown both sides; add more oil as needed. Drain on paper towels. Serve hot with sour cream and applesauce.

I am looking for a way to force a deadlock on Informix IDS 11.50. The solution has to fulfill the following conditions:
- Only one table involved,
- Isolation level:
ROWlevel locking,
- Two threads, but only one can access the row(s) modified by the other one.
I came up with the solution that satisfies every condition but the last one:
t1 is created and populated as follows:
CREATE TABLE t1
id SERIAL PRIMARY KEY,
name CHAR(20)
CREATE INDEX idx_name on t1 (name);
INSERT INTO t1 (name) VALUES ('A');
INSERT INTO t1 (name) VALUES ('B');
On 2 separate dbaccess consoles (with lock mode set to wait for 15 seconds) I execute the following commands:
dbaccess #1: BEGIN;
dbaccess #1: UPDATE t1 SET name = name WHERE name = 'A';
dbaccess #2: BEGIN;
dbaccess #2: UPDATE t1 SET name = name WHERE name = 'B';
dbaccess #1: SELECT * FROM t1;
dbaccess #2: SELECT * FROM t1; -- 143: ISAM error: deadlock detected

To mark the launch of the first robotic probe to the Red planet, that took place 50 years ago, radio telescopes on Earth sends 90,000 messages to Mars on Friday.
A team of astronomers has taken the most sensitive image of a galaxy 30 million light years away via a radio telescope with frequencies just above those of commercial FM radio stations.
Using a radio telescope with frequencies just above those of commercial FM radio stations, a European team of astronomers has obtained the most sensitive image of a galaxy below 1 GHz.
Leading experts from around the world have gathered in Stellenbosch, South Africa to plan how SKA ( Square Kilometre Array ) - an international enterprise to build the largest radio telescope - will be used.
Two New Zealand research groups are to lead work on designing crucial aspects of the world`s largest and most sensitive radio telescope, the Square Kilometre Array, a minister announced here Tuesday.
The radio telescope LOFAR has found two new pulsars - fast-spinning neutron stars, which are remnants of massive supernova explosions.
The scientists studied a galaxy called 4C12.50, nearly 1.5 billion light-years from Earth.
The Square Kilometre Array is a radio telescope, which will be built in the remote and radio quiet deserts of Australia and Southern Africa.
For the first time, scientists have observed the birth of two giant planets emitting gas as they orbit their parent star.
Astronomers hope that the huge radio telescope facility in Western Australia officially opened earlier this year will help them uncover 700,000 new galaxies in 2013.
Humans could make contact with alien life within 12 years, with the aid of the world`s largest radio telescope, a leading UFO expert has claimed.
A new analytical tool will process waves of data coming in from the new low-frequency radio telescope, the Murchison Widefield Array, to shed more light on early universe.
Scientists planning for CSIRO's next-generation Australian Square Kilometre Array Pathfinder (ASKAP) are hoping to find an unprecedented 700,000 new galaxies with the country's newest radio telescope.
China today unveiled Asia`s biggest radio telescope to be used in collecting accurate data from satellites and space probes.
A team of scientists has developed a method for detecting galaxies of stars that formed when the universe was in its infancy, during the first 180 million years of its existence.
ALMA, which is under construction, is currently using 16 large antennas to see wavelengths of light.
India is providing critical digital electronics sub-systems for a USD 29 million next-generation radio telescope, being built by Australia which will help to study early universe, the Sun and space weather.
ALMA was officially opened for astronomers on Monday after a decade of planning and construction.

The Last Word In Business
Originally published on Thu December 20, 2012 11:37 am
And today's last word in business is something many equate to being as fun as doing taxes - dental work. A dentist in Sweden is offering $45 gift cards. It's an effort to entice 20-somethings who've stopped coming in for cleanings now that they're living on their own. That gift may go over as well as Hermey the elf's ambitions in the 1964 TV special, "Rudolph the Red Nose Reindeer."
CARL BANAS: (as Head Elf) What? You don't like to make toys?
PAUL SOLES: (as Hermey) No.
UNIDENTIFIED GROUP: Hermey doesn't like to make toys. Hermey doesn't like to make toys. Shame on you.
BANAS: (as Head Elf) Do you mind telling me what you do want to do?
SOLES: (as Hermey) Well, Sir, someday, I'd like to be a, a dentist.
BANAS: (as Head Elf) A dentist?
INSKEEP: Of course, a dentist. Watch the special. It turned out to be a really, really valuable skill.

Forever 21 Pulls 'Allergic to Algebra' Girls' Tees (PHOTO)
Once again, a major retailer embellishes girls' t-shirts with a sexist slogan and then pulls the shirts from shelves after receiving complaints from consumers and activists.
The LA-based Forever 21 chain, which specializes in inexpensive, trendy clothing, is selling a slew of anti-education shirts this season, with messages ranging from "Skool sucks" to "I heart school" (on the front) and "not…" on the back. Critics (including Reddit readers and signers of a petition at Change.org) have targeted the algebra-bashing message because it furthers the perception that girls have a harder time with math than boys.

[1] Based on 6 months of OBS data from the Cascadia Initiative experiment near the Juan de Fuca Ridge, we obtain Rayleigh wave group and phase speed curves from 6 s to about 20 s period from ambient noise cross correlations among all station pairs. We confirm the hypothesis that the dispersion data can be fit by a simple age-dependent formula, which we invert using a Bayesian Monte Carlo formalism for an age-dependent shear wave speed model of the crust and uppermost mantle between crustal ages of 0.5 and 3.5 Ma. Igneous crustal structure is age invariant with a thickness of 7 km, water depth varies in a prescribed way, and sedimentary thickness and mantle shear wave speeds are found to increase systematically with crustal age. The mantle model possesses a shallow low shear velocity zone (LVZ) with a velocity minimum at about 20 km depth at 0.5 Ma with lithosphere thickening monotonically with age. Minimum mantle shear velocities at young ages are lower than predicted from a half-space conductively cooling model (HSCM) and the lithosphere thickens with age faster than the HSCM, providing evidence for nonconductive cooling in the young lithosphere. The shallow LVZ is consistent with expectations for a largely dehydrated depleted (harzburgite) mantle with a small, retained near-ridge partial melt fraction probably less than 1% with melt extending to a lithospheric age of approximately 1 Ma (i.e., ∼30 km from the ridge).

|This article needs additional citations for verification. (January 2009)
In economics, demand is the utility for a good or service of an economic agent, relative to his/her income. (Note: This distinguishes "demand" from "quantity demanded", where demand is a listing or graphing of quantity demanded at each possible price. In contrast to demand, quantity demanded is the exact quantity demanded at a certain price. Changing the actual price will change the quantity demanded, but it will not change the demand, because demand is a listing of quantities that would be bought at various prices, not just the actual price.)
Demand is a buyer's willingness and ability to pay a price for a specific quantity of a good or service. Demand refers to how much (quantity) of a product or service is desired by buyers at various prices. The quantity demanded is the amount of a product people are willing to buy at a certain price; the relationship between price and quantity demanded is known as the demand.[1] (see also supply and demand). The term demand signifies the ability or the willingness to buy a particular commodity at a given point of time, ceteris paribus.
Inverse demand function[edit]
In its standard form a linear demand equation is Q = a - bP. That is, quantity demanded is a function of price. The inverse demand equation, or price equation, treats price as a function g of quantity demanded: P = f(Q). To compute the inverse demand equation, simply solve for P from the demand equation.[2] For example, if the demand equation is Q = 240 - 2P then the inverse demand equation would be P = 120 - .5Q, the right side of which is the inverse demand function.[3]
The inverse demand function is useful in deriving the total and marginal revenue functions. Total revenue equals price, P, times quantity, Q, or TR = P×Q. Multiply the inverse demand function by Q to derive the total revenue function: TR = (120 - .5Q) × Q = 120Q - 0.5Q². The marginal revenue function is the first derivative of the total revenue function; here MR = 120 - Q. Note that the MR function has the same y-intercept as the inverse demand function in this linear example; the x-intercept of the MR function is one-half the value of that of the demand function, and the slope of the MR function is twice that of the inverse demand function. This relationship holds true for all linear demand equations. The importance of being able to quickly calculate MR is that the profit-maximizing condition for firms regardless of market structure is to produce where marginal revenue equals marginal cost (MC). To derive MC the first derivative of the total cost function is taken. For example assume cost, C, equals 420 + 60Q + Q2. Then MC = 60 + 2Q. Equating MR to MC and solving for Q gives Q = 20. So 20 is the profit maximizing quantity: to find the profit-maximizing price simply plug the value of Q into the inverse demand equation and solve for P.
Residual demand curve[edit]
The demand curve facing a particular firm is called the residual demand curve. The residual demand curve is the market demand that is not met by other firms in the industry at a given price. The residual demand curve is the market demand curve D(p), minus the supply of other organizations, So(p): Dr(p) = D(p) - So(p )[4]
Is the demand curve for PC firm really flat?[edit]
Practically every introductory microeconomics text describes the demand curve facing a perfectly competitive firm as being flat or horizontal. A horizontal demand curve is perfectly elastic. If there are n identical firms in the market then the elasticity of demand PED facing any one firm is
- PEDmi = nPEDm - (n - 1) PES[4]
where PEDm is the market elasticity of demand, PES is the elasticity of supply of each of the other firms, and (n -1) is the number of other firms.[5] This formula suggests two things. The demand curve is not perfectly elastic and if there are a large number of firms in the industry the elasticity of demand for any individual firm will be extremely high and the demand curve facing the firm will be nearly flat.[6]
For example assume that there are 80 firms in the industry and that the demand elasticity for industry is -1.0 and the price elasticity of supply is 3. Then
- PEDmi = nPEDm - (n - 1) PES,
- PEDmi = (-1) - (80 - 1) 3,
- PEDmi = -1(80) - (79 x 3)
- PEDmi = -80 - 237 = - 317
That is the firm PED is 317 times as elastic as the market PED. If a firm raised its price "by one tenth of one percent demand would drop by nearly one third."[7] if the firm raised its price by three tenths of one percent the quantity demanded would drop by nearly 100%. Three tenths of one percent marks the effective range of pricing power the firm has because any attempt to raise prices by a higher percentage will effectively reduce quantity demanded to zero.
Demand management in economics[edit]
Demand management in economics is the art or science of controlling economic or aggregate demand to avoid a recession. Such management is inspired by Keynesian macroeconomics, and Keynesian economics is sometimes referred to as demand-side economics.
