Weather News
Full Moon May Look Bigger Over Weekend
March 18, 2011
By Frank D. Roylance, The Baltimore Sun
Seer Kit Karson, at PsychicCosmos.com writes, "Get ready for what could be moderate to severe weather patterns, increased seismic activity, tsunamis and more volcanic eruptions than normal."
But cooler scientific types say there`s no evidence the unusually close full moon will do anything of the sort. It may appear a bit bigger and brighter, they say, but not by much.
"There`s no reason to expect any calamities or quakes or anything really bad," said Jim O`Leary, director of the Maryland Science Center`s Davis Planetarium. "It`s happened many times before ... and hasn`t caused anything bad in the past."
The event is what astronomers call a "perigean full moon." The moon will be precisely full at 2:10 p.m. EDT. By coincidence, that`s only 50 minutes before it reaches "perigee" -- its closest approach to the Earth for the month, and the year, at 221,566 miles. It`s the shortest time between the two events since March 1993.
The combination of a full moon, perigee, and an optical illusion that makes all full moons look large on the horizon, may make this moonrise all the more startling.
"I think the moon probably will look bigger to folks that haven`t looked in a long time," O`Leary said.
Astronomers say the difference between the moon`s distance at perigee, and at "apogee" -- the farthest point in its monthly orbit around the Earth -- is about 31,000 miles. That means the moon`s diameter will appear about 14 percent wider than at apogee. And, if skies are clear, it may appear up to 30 percent brighter than the usual full moon.
The differences are caused by the lopsided elliptical shape of the moon`s orbit, passing a little nearer to Earth on one side, and farther on the other.
And, because it`s the moon`s gravity that causes the ocean tides, this closer approach adds a few inches to the water level at high tide. That comes on top of a high tide that is normally higher anyway when the moon is full, and the sun, Earth and moon are lined up in a row.
But "unless you have a storm, and strong onshore winds, you may not even notice it," O`Leary said.

10 Tips to assessing your fitness level
Apr 13, 2012, 8:18 a.m.
According to Men's Health, there are 10 health and fitness tests that can be used for physical fitness testing. While some retired Olympians can probably still do the tests set forth by Men's Health , many adults over 55 probably shouldn't try to meet the physical fitness testing standards laid out in this article. Luckily, the President's Challenge puts forth several more reasonable health and fitness tests for assessing adult fitness. Here is a comparison of Men's Health vs. the President.
- Men's Health defines fit as being able to run 1.5 miles in under 10 minutes. The President's Challenge adult fitness test also lists a 1.5 mile run. The description starts with the word "Alert!" No joke. Only adults who regularly run 20 minutes, 3 times a week, should take this test.
- Men's Health has another test that defines fit as running 300 yards in under 1 minute. In contrast, the President's Challenge has a 1-mile walk test for people that participate in aerobic activity three or more times a week.
- Men's Health defines fit as being able to swim 700 yards in 12 minutes. 24-hour Fitness suggests seniors take water aerobics classes.
- Men's Health states that doing 40 pushups qualifies a man as fit. The President's Challenge again starts with the word "Alert!" and points out that anyone with elbow, shoulder or wrist pain shouldn't take this test.
- The President's Challenge includes a half-sit-up fitness test to strengthen and improve core strength. Men's Health has a section instead called "Touch the rim," an allusion to jumping up and dunking a basketball. Sure.
- Both Men's Health and the President's Challenge include a Body Mass Index (BMI) Test to meaure fat. In Men's Health this is entitled "Measure Up." The test advocates using a measuring tape to compare waist and hip measurements: the waist circumfrance is divided by the hip circumfrance. According to Men's Health , a ratio of .81 or lower qualifies as "Flat and happy" while .92 or higher translates into "Your wife and kids are going to miss you." How many men are offended by this one and are STILL around? The BMI Test in the President's Challenge is more reasonable. In this test height and weight are used to determine a "normal" score of between 18.5-24.9.
- Men's Health and the President's Challenge both agree that the sit-and-reach test is one of the best health and fitness tests for testing flexibility. A measuring stick is placed on the ground and the tester stretches forward as far as possible. Men's Health advocates touching the toes. The President's Challenge warns that this test can aggravate lower back pain.
- Men's Health suggests that being able to throw a basketball 75 feet while kneeling is a great test for upper body strength. It probably is if kneeling on a hard basketball court is still feasible.
- Similarly, Men's Health has a leg strength test. The ability to leg press 2.25 times body weight qualifies as "fit" while 1.8 or lower is a "shaky foundation." All old houses settle a little.
- The last Men's Health test advocates lifting 1.5 times a person's own body weight. Lifting this much could definitely be dangerous.

"Great Book- Well Written and Well Presented"
This is a very well written and well narrated book. As has been pointed out by previous reviewers the book is narrated by Cotter Smith and not Professor Feldman. The book focuses on the lives of four of FDR's Supreme Court Justices- Jackson, Douglas, Frankfurter and Black- all of whom had a very significant impact on the history of the Supreme Court from the New Deal era to the current day. Professor Feldman does an excellent job discussing the backgrounds of the four justices and how their education, social and political experiences framed their view of jurisprudence. For readers who are very interested in the Supreme Court and how it has become so important in the modern day political era this is a great listen. I would also recommend that after listening to this volume, readers may also want to listen to Jeff Shesol's well written and narrated book "Supreme Power" which focuses on FDR's attempt to pack the Supreme Court. While the court packing scheme is discussed in Professor Feldman's book, it is justifiably given less space than in Mr. Shesol's book. I would strongly recommend both books. Great additions to the Audible Library
"Excellent Book But First Time Listener Beware"
I am an avid student of history, especially relating to the First World War and the period of time preceding the war and subsequent to it. I also an avid student of the Russian Revolution, Russian Civil War and period following it. This book was extremely well written and it probably one of the finest biographies I have read about Stalin. That being said, there are two issues that one should consider before purchasing this book.
First- as has been pointed out by other reviewers, the narration is not as good as it could and should be. While I did not mind the narrator's pace and tone, it bothered me greatly and detracted from my enjoyment of the book that he could not correctly pronounce the Russian names of the historical figures in the book. It seems logical to me that if you are going to narrate a book with non-English character names, you need to do a good job with the pronunciations. That was not the case with this narration.
Secondly- the book does a phenomenal job of sketching the time frame in Russian history which Stalin was a part of and the book went into great details about Lenin, Trotsky, Stolypin, Tsar Nicholas II, Kerensky as well as the other Russian historical figures of the period. While this was great for me in that it added greatly to my understanding of Stalin, for the first time reader of a Stalin biography, this can detract from his/her enjoyment of the book because not enough time is spent on Stalin's life. Therefore, if you have never read or listened to a biography of Stalin, I would not listen to this book as the first book on the subject. Instead consider first listening to the Stalin biographies written by Simon Sebag Montfiore (only covers Young Stalin), Robert Conqeust and/or Edward Radzinsky (all three books are available from Audible) and then consider listening to this one. I believe that by following this course of action, the listener will enjoy this book more and learn more about Stalin from it.
"Awesome Biography About A Forgotten Man"
As a student of history and as a former New Yorker who grew up in NY at the end of Rockefeller's tenure as governor, I thought that the author of this book penned an extremely well written thorough and very fair biography about a wealthy man who led the liberal wing of the Republican Party before the GOP became the conservative party of Reagan and Goldwater that it remains to this day. I must admit that I did not know how complex an individual Nelson Rockefeller truly was nor that he actually served in the presidential administrations of FDR, Truman and Eisenhower before launching himself into his own political career as governor of the Empire State. It is hard to believe that Rockefeller's wing of the GOP (Rockefeller Republicans) stood for government regulation and intervention in almost all key aspects of the economy based on the belief that government spending and involvement brings the most good to the public. The author did a superb job in describing how while this vision initially worked, it began to weaken with Rockefeller's defeat by Goldwater at the 1964 Republican National Convention in San Francisco (great description of Rockefeller's speech to the convention and the jeering reaction he received) and it came crashing to earth with the huge deficits in the NY State budget in the early 1970's when revenue sharing with the federal government began to ebb. Perhaps the most interesting part of the book focused on the Attica prison riot and Rockefeller's conduct during all phases of the revolt- including its brutal suppression of the prisoners and the slaughter of some of the hostages. The author also did a great job weaving in some of the great historical figures of Rockefeller's life including his grandfather (the original John D. Rockefeller), Henry Kissinger (whom Rockefeller developed and promoted), FDR, Eisenhower, Cordell Hull, Richard Nixon, Gerald Ford (Rockefeller was his VP) and Donald Rumsfeld (with whom he feuded). The narration was very good. The only drawback to the book is that one feels overwhelmed by the number of different people who played a part in Rockefeller's life and career. Otherwise it is a phenomenal book and well worth the listen.
"Good Story But Truly Great Narration"
This is the first Sherlock Holmes audio book that I have ever listened to. While I was very familiar with the story (saw the movie which starrted Basil Rathbone and Nigel Bruce), I believe that what made this recording superb was Simon Prebble's narration. He did a phenomonal (and probably the best) job that I have ever heard changing his voice to match the characters in the book (best exemplified by his voice characterizations of Holmes vs. Dr. Watson (with different English Accents and tones) as well as inserting an American/Canadian dialectic tone for Sir. Henry Baskerville). I recommend this as a great listen and I am actually thinking of purchasing the entire Holmes collection that is available on Audible (and is also narrated by Prebble)
"Interesting Book - Well Narrated"
This biography was well written. Cotter Smith did a great job with the narration. While like all biographies, its primary focus was on the life of one man- Jackson- I enjoyed the fact that it also brought into focus some of the other Civil War soldiers who had a major impact on Jackson's life as a commander- namely George McClellan, Joseph Johnston, PGT Beauregard, Robert E. Lee as well as some of the other not so known characters such as Nathanial "Commisary" Banks, John Pope, Richard Ewell, AP Hill, Turner Ashby and the unfortunately maligned Richard B. Garnett. The biography is presented in a non-chronological format. It starts out focusing on Jackson's initial command in the Civil War and then folds back into his service in the Mexican War and his VMI teaching career. We are never really understand how Jackson receives his appointment to West Point until about midway through the book. In listening to the book, I feel as if I have a better understanding of Jackson than I did before- but I still feel as if there are aspects of his life (his mercurial behavior) that I will never understand and probably no one ever will since there is not a plethora of information available. Nevertheless I believe that this is an excellent book and well worth the listen
"Great Book & Narration- Some Historical Error"
I thought that this was an excellent book and was well narrated. I thought that the authors did an excellent job describing the events surrounding the assasination of Lincoln. Although it could have been excluded, the description of the battles covering the fall of Petersburg to Lee's surrender at Appomatox Courthouse was very good. The only problem that causes me some pause to the quality of the book are some historical errors- the most important to me being the one describing Edwin Stanton. The authors incorrectly state that Stanton's first appointment to Lincoln's cabinet was to the post of Attorney General and that he later was appointed Secretary of War. Stanton, a lifelong Democrat, was Attorney General during the last months of the Buchanon Administration and was appointed by Lincoln as Secretary of War in 1862 following the Lincoln's dismissal of Simon Cameron from the position. I recognize that this is a samll error- but when listening to a book such as this one- in which the authors state that all of the facts presented are absolutely true- this error causes me to doubt the accuracy of the rest of the book. Nevertheless it is a good book and worthy of purchase
"Interesting Book- Great Narration"
As someone who is very much interested in history and the First World War and the fall of the Romanov Dynasty, I found this book to be an extremely interesting introduction to the four daughters of Nicholas II and Alexandra- who are often ignored or given only brief notice in books covering the fall of the dynasty. Through the review and translation of their diaries and tthe correspondence and diaries of individuals who interacted with them, Ms. Rappaport has made a great contribution to the story of these four wormen. She has painted them as proper Victorian women raised in a family that walled itself off from imperial society- mostly because of the illness of the Tsarevich and their mother's ill health. The Grand Duchesses are presented as young women who had a strong devotion to their family but also had the same interests and desires that most teenagers have despite their being royalty. The one flaw that I find in the book is that it does not adequately discuss their interaction with Rasputin, the starets who domincated the last two decades of Imperial Russia. This may intentional on the author's part or it might also be that the Grand Duchesses had very limited interaction with him. Karen Cass did an excellent job with the narration transitioning between an English and American English accent when dealing with characters of different nationalities. If you are interested in learning something about Nicholas and Alexandra's daughters, this would be a great place to start.
"Great Book on The Making of the Middle East"
I found this to be a well narrated and written book on the history of the making of the modern day Middle East. The book commences with the period just prior to World War I and takes the listener through World War I into the carving up of the former Ottoman Empire territories of Syria, Arabia, Palestine, Lebannon, Jordan and to a lesser extent Egypt (which was Ottoman territory but administered by the British prior to the War). The book covers the history through the eyes of four individuals- TE Lawrence (Lawrence of Arabia), Curt Prufer (a German Diplomat), Aaron Aaronsohn (a Palestinian Jewish Scientist originally born in Europe) and WIlliam Yale (an American employed by Standard Oil of NY). Through their experiences (Lawrence being the most famous), one acquires a greater understanding of how France and Britain carved up the former Ottoman Empire between them, which eventually led to the circumstances the word now confronts in that area of the world. Historical events begin to unfold through their eyes and one is introduced to many of the people who were made famous by the war (Allenby, Kitchner, Faisal, Ibn Saud, Mark Sykes and David Lloyd George to name a few). Of the four characters, the portrait of Lawrence is the most remarkable (as one would expect) and the author does a great job contrasting Lawrence's real life from what is presented in Lawrence's book, The Seven Pillars of Wisdom and David Lean's 1962 movie Lawrence In Arabia. The narration was excellent and I must admit I learned more about the Middle East that I knew prior to reading the book. If you are interested in learning more about the making of the Modern Middle East and conflict in that part of the world today, this would be a great book to start with. As has been pointed out in several other reviews (Amazon as well as Audible), if you wish to learn even more about the making of the Modern Middle East, consider purhcasing a copy of David Framkin's book, "A Peace To End All Peace", which covers the more than this book does (unfortunately it is not available on Audible).
"Excellent Course- Needs Battle Maps"
I found this course to be well taught and fascinating. The Professor was excellent. Although I may not agree with all of the battles selected by the Professor as being the most important in world history (especially some of the ancient ones)- I did enjoy the manner in which he described his methodology for choosing the battles and I learned a great deal about some historical events that I really knew nothing about. The biggest complaint that I have with this course is the lack of maps for each battle. You really cannot understand strategy, movement and terrain withoug some form of visual display. I really think that Audible should contract with the Great Corses to add a pdf file of the maps for each battle. Otherwise I would recommend that one purchase this course directly from the Teaching Company
"Great Historical Biography- Well Read"
As a student of history I found this biography to be an excellent book about a man whose career spanned two different period in US History- the period leading up to and including the Civil War and the Guilded Age that covered the development of America up to the Progressive Era prior to World War One. The author does an excellent job of covering the details of not just John Hay's life but the historical events (including the assasination of three presidents, the Spanish American War, The Boxer Rebellion, the Panama Canal land acquisition, and the Russo Japanese War) that were an integral part in US development into an imperial power. Great nuggets were also included (such as the fact that Hay's granddaughter was actually the first owner of the NY Mets baseball franchise).The narration was also excellent and I learned a great deal about a period of history of which I thought I had a good knowledge. I would recommend the book to anyone who wants to learn more about the history of America from the American Civil War through 1905.
"Great Book, Splendid Narration"
This is the only book of Maugham's that I have actually read (kindle e reader), listened to (audible) and seen the movie (Tyrone Power and Bill Murray versions). I found this audio book version to be the best of the three mediums. Narration was outstanding and I felt more involved with the story and characters than I did with the book and the movies. I would recommend this recording to anyone with any interest in Maugham's books.

HOUSTON – ConocoPhillips produced first oil from the Ekofisk South development project in the Norwegian North Sea on Oct. 25.
"The Ekofisk South project startup represents an important milestone for ConocoPhillips," said Matt Fox, executive V.P., Exploration and Production. "This is the first of several new major project startups that will contribute to the company's growth over the next few years. In Norway, a second project, Eldfisk II, is scheduled to start up by early 2015. These projects will increase ultimate resource recoveries and extend the field life of this premier legacy asset for years to come."
Ekofisk South, along with Eldfisk II and other development projects offshore Norway, will add approximately 60,000 barrels of oil equivalent per day of net high-margin production to the company's production volumes by 2017.
The Ekofisk South project includes the planned drilling of 35 new production wells and eight water injection wells. One well is currently producing. Drilling is underway on additional wells and production is expected to ramp up over the next four years as new wells are brought on line.
The Greater Ekofisk Area, located approximately 200 mi (300 km) offshore Stavanger, comprises four producing fields: Ekofisk, Eldfisk, Embla and Tor. Crude oil from Greater Ekofisk's producing fields is exported via pipeline to Teesside, England, and natural gas flows via pipeline to Emden, Germany.
ConocoPhillips (35.1%) operates the Greater Ekofisk Area. The other Ekofisk co-venturers are Total (39.9%), Eni (12.4%), Statoil (7.6%) and Petoro (5.0%).

marion :hearts: i hope the best for you in Wimbly :bounce:
Jun 22nd, 2007, 06:43 PM
Marion beat Dementieva because Dementieva is still trying to find her form. It was just a very bad match by Elena and Marion took advantage of it. I think that Justine also played a great match today and she'll probably win the tournament.

Bartoli got what she deserved...
anyone noticed how awful the way she serves?
Jun 22nd, 2007, 08:18 PM
can't see why bartoli is effective, i mean, she can't move, she has no variation, she has very little technique
Jun 23rd, 2007, 12:33 AM
Bartoli is effective for sure when you let her dictate and give her rhythm. She really wallops the ball and can develop good angles. That is tough to deal with if you are someone like Dementieva who plays into Bartoli's strengths. Justine is another story. She did not often allow Bartoli to control the points or forced her to deal with tough defensive shots. Oftentimes, Justine turned defense into offense by hitting winners out of nowhere. Nothing you can do about that if you are not a great mover.
Jun 23rd, 2007, 12:39 AM
can't see why bartoli is effective, i mean, she can't move, she has no variation, she has very little technique
She's only effective against certain players. She has a good serve and strong (though unorthodox) groundstrokes, which help anyone on grass. Not having a good serve also hinders someone like LenaD on grass. But Marion's nowhere near Justine in any way.
Jun 23rd, 2007, 01:11 AM
well done justine, keep that 1st serve around 65% and u will make some big noise in Wimbly :)
Jun 23rd, 2007, 03:10 AM
yep JUJU is returning serves very well. sometimes going up the line, sometimes crosscourt and low at the foot, other times with a lot of slice. she is varying her serve a ton too. all of this bodes very well. love how many free points she gets with the body serve and the slice serves. also her serve n volley technique has improved a lot.
Jun 23rd, 2007, 03:53 AM
Good playing Justine......now beat Amelie on grass!!
Jun 23rd, 2007, 04:39 AM
Bartoli getting trashed by a top player. Who would've thought it?
Jun 23rd, 2007, 09:38 AM
Bartoli getting trashed by a top player. Who would've thought it?
Well she is not alone. The last time a top player (Serena) challenged Justine, it resulted in a 64 63 for her. Ana, Nicole, Jelena hasn't done better than Marion in their last matches.
Jun 23rd, 2007, 09:51 AM
The key to beating Bartoli on this surface is moving her around with good angles. This was Henin's strategy from the get go and Bartoli couldn't deal with it. Once Henin hit in the middle of the court she wasn't as superior. Bartoli will beat almost anyone on grass who doesn't make her run. When she can set up her groundies she is lethal.

That's right. Our next show on October 28th will be (at least) our 200th!

We'll be celebrating anyway with a party at the In Your Head Productions studio where all the hosts who have ever been on will be welcomed to come on the show for a few minutes and get all meta about Flaming Freedom. So be sure to tune in live and get ready with any questions or comments you have for our co-hosts!
Attention various guest co-hosts, those of you who haven't been on in a while should be forewarned–we now have webcams! So comb that bird's nest you call a hairstyle and try not to pick your nose too much. Also be forewarned that if I'm psychic and my dreams are actually a prediction of the future, then famous fantasy author Neil Gaiman might show up, so be on your best behavior.

History comes to life!,
By A Customer
This review is from: A World Transformed: Firsthand Accounts of California Before the Gold Rush (Paperback)
In this accessible and engrossing anthology, editor Paddison portrays a pre-gold rush California that is familiar to today's Californians--diverse, contested, ever-changing. The book's firsthand accounts, framed by helpful introductions, bring to life the experiences of the missionaries, Indians, explorers, and homesteaders who populated early California. Highly recommended to anyone interested in the development (and transformation) of the American West.

Cabinet refinishing
I'm in the planning stage of a remodel of our 25 year old kitchen. One option I am considering is refinishing our existing cabinets, which are cherry, raised panel, solid plywood, and in good condition on the inside. The outsides are mostly sound but shabby, and the refinisher thinks he can make them look good again. He quoted us $2600 versus $10,000 I priced out for new. I'm happy with the layout and the kitchen functions well.
The problem is, I want to eliminate the cabinets overhanging the peninsula, which would then necessitate swapping our 24" corner upper for a flat 12x24". I also want to rebuild a closet into a pantry cupboard. I'm concerned that he won't be able to get the woodwork to match. Since it's cherry, it darkens considerably with age. If he stains the new wood to match the old, it won't match well in a year or two.
Is this problem one that a good furniture guy could deal with? Or should I just bite the bullet and go with new?
Not sure what you need to do, but could he use any parts of the cabs you are taking down to rebuild the one you are saying would need changing?
I like your cabinets and they are what I would want if I didn't have my granite stuck in place on my old ones....but this thread isn't about my gripes...I think you should keep them. They are likely better quality than what you could get for a reasonable price.
If you add cabinets elsewhere in the kitchen I have seen the trend of mixing colors. Maybe that would work for you?
I just redid my kitchen and I had old oak cabs that were 28 years old. I didn't like the doors or inside of the cabs so decided to go brand new, RTA. I also got quotes for refinishing and resurfacing. Refinishing was roughly $2500 and resurfacing $12K. The RTA's were $6500.
I actually would have done refinishing, had I liked my door style and if the inside wasnt MDF. I like your doors and it sounds like they are in good condition. I think they would look beautiful refinished/restained or even painted white. Definitely agree that you should remove the uppers above peninsula; it will really open that space up.
I vote for resizing your new flat cupboard to fit the corner cupboard door. Or, you could use a glass front door, so that only the edge trim shows, and if it did happen to reage differently wouldn't be so noticeable.
How does he plan to refinish them? If sanding them down, they'll be starting at the same place anyways, right?
Looks like it was either a nnatural or a very light stain. Natural is easy, light stain doable. If natural just put the new ones in direct sun for a few weeks, will draken considerably. Eventually they will catch up. Had to do this with a DW panel on a 14 year old display. Color got close and was a match within a year.
Light stain requires a little more guess work but don't do an exact match to start.
$2600 will NOT cover a true refinish job where everything is properly sanded down to bare wood and you start over with the finish process. It probably covered wiping them with mineral spirits and then applying some type of poly over the failing finish. NOT what I'd ever want in my kitchen. $2600 would barely cover having them professionally painted, and then only if you did remove all of the cabinets above the peninsula.
I think you'd better re-examine the meat and bones of what you are actually getting vs what you are expecting to get.
Any decent cabinet maker can take that diagonal corner and make it into a regular non angled one. But, again, it will involve more money than what you are being quoted to do things right here. By the time you add everything up from a proper refinish and remake, you will have exceeded the cost of new cabinets.
I think you will be fine with the refinishing route. In my experience they can get pretty close. It's one of those things that you might notice a lot at first, and quite possibly only YOU notice. As time goes by you notice less and less and other people think you are crazy if you say something is different.
I have a post and beam house. Some of the beams were inside a wall that we took down. The newly exposed beams were a very different color and it upset me a lot. I felt like the space didn't flow because the mismatched beam color still delineated the old walls. It's barely noticeable now and it is just a few months.
Could you use the cabinet over the peninsula to replace the corner cabinet? How close in size is it to the 12 by 24 cabinet you need? We took down cabinets over our peninsula & turned one to the wall to finish a flat run. Our contractor needed to take the face frame off the one side to make it 12 inches, as ours had doors on each side. He also had to add an end panel which we stained to match. The one we used was the same length, we had two cabinets meeting perpendicular to each other instead of the corner cabinet, so we had one longer cabinet & the shorter ones. Yours appear to be shorter, but perhaps you could add a shelf or something underneath to make up for the difference.

Morbier Cheese
Morbier (full name Morbier du Livradois) is a mild-tasting cheese with a white pine ash layer in the middle of it.
The cheese has a golden-brown rind. Inside, it is pale yellow, and semi-firm yet creamy and supple.
It is made from unpasteurized cow's milk. The milk is heated, then curdled.
Traditionally, Morbier Cheese was made from leftover curd that wasn't wanted for other cheeses or uses. The curd was put into a mould, then ash put over it to stop it from drying out and forming a rind until the next day, when there would be more leftover curd, enough to finish filling up the mould.
Today, small producers will make the bottom layer from the evening's milk, then the top layer from the next morning's milk. It is then salted and pressed.
By law, it has to be aged a minimum of 45 days. Many, though, age it for two months. After this initial aging, it is then washed with brine, then aged another two months.
The crust becomes golden brown as it ages, and the flavour gets more complex.
Morbier Cheese is made in 11 to 18 pound (5 to 8 kg) wheels in the Savoie region of France.
Morbier Cheese melts well.
Cooking Tips
Morbier was originally made in Morez, in the Jura mountains near the Swiss border from curd leftover from making Comté cheese, or when they didn't have enough milk to make cheese the size of a Comté wheel and dates back to at least the late 1700s.
History Notes
It is uncertain how makers hit upon the idea of using ash.
Morbier Cheese received its French AOC in 2001, and its European PDO status in 2002.
"Morbier" means "small market town" in French.
Language Notes
Please share this information with your friends. They may love it.

About MeHello there!
I am looking to expand my portfolio by working with different photographers, make-up artists, etc. While I am open to trying new things, please no raunchy, nude requests. Tasteful requests will be considered.
In addition, I studied visual communications in undergrad, so I am usually the one behind the camera, not in front. Thus, I like to get creative, and would love to bring some ideas to life. Please keep in mind that I do have a, "day job" and am on here minimally as of late, so if I do not respond right away...give me more than 2 hrs before writing me off.
While I am seeking paid work, I will do TF. If I have to travel more than an hour to you, gas money is appreciated and please be professional when contacting me. Thank you!

Avril Lavigne is continuing her foray into the world of fashion, first by releasing her own limited Sally Hansen Salon Effects Real Nail Polish Strips (love 'em!) and now with a new hair trend. Lavigne debuted a half-shaved doo while out in Paris, France last night. The singer has gone for a more natural hair colour, removing her pink and green streaks and replacing the look with a daring half shaved look.
Always one to stay true to her own personal style, Lavigne was photographed with her new hair while wearing her signature black colour, rocking a leather biker jacket and white and black striped top.
Lavigne has been hard at work on her follow up to 2011's Goodbye Lullaby, working with longtime friend and Nickelback lead singer Chad Kroeger, as well as production team The Runners and former Evanescence member David Hodges.
What do you think of Avril's new look?

Here's a simple formula for creating content that effectively communicates your point, especially if the subject matter is novel or complex. This strategy can also dramatically reduce the time it takes you to put together tutorials, white papers, or presentations of any sort.
The key is to cover all the bases when it comes to the different learning styles of the audience. Let me elaborate on that point a bit.
One way in which otherwise quality content fails to satisfy the needs of much of the prospective audience is by failing to address different learning styles. Moreover, failing to properly structure the different approaches to communicating information will leave many of your readers confused and your content in shambles from a flow perspective.

be quiet! Dark Power Pro 10 850-watt Power Supply Reviewbe quiet! ups the ante a bit more with their latest Dark Power Pro 10 power supply. This time around we have more power and increased efficiency.
Last month we introduced many of our readers to a power supply manufacturer that they had never heard of before and covered the launch of the Dark Power Pro 10 550W power supply. be quiet! is a German manufacturer of power supplies, fans and coolers.
Not only have they received numerous awards throughout Germany for their products, but they also received an Editor's Choice awards as one of the best damn power supplies we have ever seen here at TweakTown. It isn't something that came lightly, especially when we'd never seen any of their products before.
When we found out that more Dark Power Pro 10 power supplies were being launched, we decided to get our hands on another one to see if be quiet! could give us a repeat winner. Today we are taking an in depth look at one of their latest Dark Power Pro 10 units, the 850W model. The three new models round out the upper end of the series and the Dark Power Pro 10 can now be had in wattages ranging from 550W to 1200W. Of the six units, the 850W model is the only one to be 80Plus Platinum rated for efficiency while the rest are rated for Gold efficiency.
Read on to find out if be quiet! scores a second win on our test bench or just proves to be a one shot chump.
Specifications, Availability and Pricing
The Dark Power Pro 10 series of power supplies utilize a quad 12V rail design and can also be configured to use these four rails as a single rail. We will talk more about this in a little bit. Two of the four rails are rated for 30A each and the other two are rated for 45A each. Combined total output for the four rails is 70A or 840W. Both of the minor rails are rated for 25A each with a combined maximum current of 140W. The 5VSB rail is rated for 3A or 15W total. Combined maximum output is 850W.
Just as before, the Dark Power Pro 10 series covers all the features that we look for in a unit. Protection is provided against over-current, over- and under-voltages, short circuits, overheating and overloads. The unit is rated for 80Plus Platinum efficiency and rated for 100% continuous output at 50C. All of the cables are fully sleeved, both native and modular.
As be quiet! is relatively new to the U.S. market, their power supplies aren't available yet. Overseas we can find the new 850W model for what works out to be about $210. That makes this a pricey 850W model, but if things work out like they did with the 550W model, then you're paying the premium for a top notch unit. Warranty for the Dark Power Pro 10 series of power supplies is for five years.

Winnipeg Free Press - PRINT EDITION
Flood-evacuee tab hits $40M
Year in hotels for residents of First Nations
OTTAWA -- The price tag to house Manitoba First Nations residents forced from their homes last year by flooding now tops $40 million.
Nearly a year after flooding in Manitoba began to force the residents from their homes, 2,255 people are still unable to return home to seven communities. About 400 people are living in hotels while the rest are staying with friends and family.
Jeff Solmundson, a spokesman for Aboriginal Affairs and Northern Development Canada's regional office in Manitoba, said the estimate for the costs of hotels, meals and daily allowances is about $40 million.
People living with friends and family still receive allowances from Ottawa to pay rent and food costs while they are out of their homes.
It's unclear exactly when most of the evacuees will be able to return home or what has to happen to accomplish that. Most are from homes that are now uninhabitable.
The first evacuees came from Dauphin River on March 30, 2011. Evacuations followed in Peguis, Canupawakpa, Ebb & Flow, Lake St. Martin, Little Saskatchewan, Opaskwayak Cree Nation and Pinaymootang.
Charlene Anderson means no disrespect to the hotel or people in the neighbourhood, but she's fed up with living at Canad Inns Garden City.
"It sucks," Anderson said Tuesday night. "It's time we got a house already."
The 27-year-old woman, along with her mother, Wilma, and Anderson's boyfriend, were forced from their home on Little Saskatchewan First Nation after major flooding on the reserve in April 2011. Anderson was told there is still eight feet of water in her basement.
"We're never going back there," she said.
The couple and her mother have been living at the hotel for the last two months after being "bounced around" a few times, she said.
And there seems to be no end in sight.
"I've almost given up already. We don't know anything about our future," Anderson said. "No one's had any meetings with us."
Aboriginal Affairs and Northern Development Canada could not say Tuesday exactly what plans are in the works to get everyone into permanent homes.
Later this week, the first five families from Lake St. Martin could be moving voluntarily into modular homes the province bought and erected near Gypsumville. The location is a temporary solution to get families out of hotels in Winnipeg.
The floods destroyed most of the homes on the reserve and the community needs a new location on which to rebuild.
A permanent solution to Lake St. Martin's problems is at least a year away, estimates the band's lawyer, Norman Boudreau. He said the community is in discussions with Ottawa and the province on a permanent solution to its housing problems. But, he added, it won't happen overnight.
Solmundson said there is nothing to report on those negotiations, and any resolution "could take a while."
Boudreau said he hoped the "emergency" situation can be resolved within a year. He said it's incumbent on both levels of government to help find a solution as soon as possible.
"It's a complex issue, for sure," he said.
Living in the city is difficult for the evacuees, Boudreau said. "The entire environment in Winnipeg is very different for them and poses a number of challenges. They would rather live in their own community," he said.
There are 120 modular homes purchased for the Gypsumville site and 53 families have been approved to move there.
Manitoba Aboriginal Affairs Minister Eric Robinson said part of the problem is there has never been a real plan to address the long-standing flood issues that have affected most of these reserves for years. When the flood waters came last year, still nobody was prepared.
"I wish I could say we've done a great job with this," said Robinson. "We're farting around with people's lives."
Federal Liberal aboriginal affairs critic Carolyn Bennett said "it's ridiculous" so many people are still in temporary housing at this point.
"There doesn't seem to be a plan," she said.
Bennett said in the meantime, families are living in conditions that aren't ideal and taxpayers are footing the bill.
"It's not exactly a cost-effective solution."
