Mayor Adams has a new gun control proposal for stopping gang violence. Will this curb gang violence or is the mayor missing the mark?
As of October first, 2010, Squatting is now illegal in the Netherlands.
As an answer to the new eviction policy roughly a thousand squatters and sympathisers demonstrated on the first of October in Amsterdam. Out of the demo a house got squatted and the group remained for a while to support and celebrate this first so called "illegal squatting action". They hung many banners, one of which said "With hollow laws you cannot fill empty houses".
Tonight on Circle A Radio, we will talk with Sonne, who has lived at her squat in Amsterdam for the past 7 years, and with Lisa Loving, Portland area journalist, KBOO Volunteer and former squatter in Amsterdam.
Hosted by Abe Proctor and Joe Uris
As the populist wave that swept President Obama into office gives way to Business as Usual, Americans are waking up to the realities of life in a plutocracy. Both Frank Rich in the New York Times and Chris Hedges on Alternet reflect on this point in grand fashion. Rich, in a column titled "Who Will Stand Up to the Superrich?" writes that the issue is "issue is whether the country can afford the systemic damage being done by the ever-growing income inequality between the wealthiest Americans and everyone else, whether poor, middle class or even rich."
Matt Taibbi – Corruption: From Russia to Wall Street (lecture)
A celebration of civil rights: Susan Banyas and The Hillsboro Story
Two months after the historic Brown v. Board of Education decision legally ending school segregation, the county engineer of Hillsboro, Ohio - a white man determined to force integration in the segregated town - set fire to Lincoln School, the town's "colored" elementary school. The two-year protest lead by five African American mothers to carry forward the struggle sparked by that fire drew the NAACP's Thurgood Marshall and led to Clemons v. Board of Education the first test case for Brown in the North.
The guest is award winning writer and activist Rebecca Solnit, the author of numerous books. Her most recent book is "A Paradise Built in Hell: The Extraordinary Communities that Arise in Disaster." She has made ten trips to New Orleans since Hurricane Katrina.
Rebecca Solnit will deliver the first Sewell Lecture on Thursday, October 28th at 7pm at the First Unitarian Church Sanctuary at 1211 SW Main Street in Portland. The topic is "Altruism in the Face of Disaster."
Tickets are $10, but no one will be turned away for lack of funds.

What color drapes would you hang against these green walls?
We're struggling with what shade of drape could work well in this room---the walls are a light sage green (Benjamin Moore Pale Celery). We didn't choose the color or light fixture, but like both fine so we're working around them. The wall color does have an odd habit of changing shades with the light, though, which has made it tricky to settle on a drape color.
One big constraint is that the drapes in this room need to block light and sound, so we're looking at heavier/darker fabrics than might otherwise be appropriate. (The brown drapes in the photo are actually thermal.) Any thoughts on what color scheme might work? Do you have a similar wall color with a complementary shade that looks great?
So far we've explored chocolate brown and various oranges and reds, but are stuck. We've pretty much decided to go with the shorter length for both the sheer and the drape, so it will end just below the window sill.
Any thoughts?
These are from Restoration Hardware:
Whatever you choose, I'd let them hang all the way to floor.
Here is a link that might be useful: Restoration Hardware Link
Thanks---I hadn't thought of the literal cut and paste, but that's a terrific way to get a sense of colors! I should've added one more constraint---this is a double window, so it's too wide for most of the Restoration/Pottery Barrel drapes (though we've found several nice ones there and contemplated trying to sew them into something workable....but are back to ordering custom at this point, hence the color commitment issue). I'm tempted to get a set and try to color match, though.
I also much prefer floor-length, but DH thinks it makes the room look smaller than it actually is (because they just about meet the bed). Isn't that counter to the normal drape rule of thumb, though? (I would think that longer makes the ceiling seem higher?)
The blackout liner is also a good thought---we'd found one custom place that could do that, but I'll have to keep looking for others.
Are you sure about the size? RH sells panels separately -- either 50-in. wide or 100-in wide. Your windows don't look wider than that? But RH panels are pricey -- you might do better with custom.
I think drapery to floor looks more elegant. Also, because the drapery doesn't stop at the sill, the wall is less broken up, and thus reads larger (IMO).
I'll check on that---100" would be more than fine. I thought they only had 50" for some reason (but maybe that's just what they had in the store when I asked?) If so, that would be perfect (and way easier). They're pricey but it might be worth it to be able to try them out/change our minds---that's been the issue with the custom orders. Just afraid to take the plunge until we're sure of the color, since there's no going back.
Drapes that go to the floor would definitely look better in my opinion also. To make the room look larger I would choose a light color, perhaps to match either the wall paint or the white trim. The firm Country Curtains has heavy linen-like drapes with a vinyl backing which I have in two rooms that are very reasonably priced and come in very wide widths. They have very good insulating qualities. You can order on-line. I'll attach a picture.
I think your ceiling would seem higher if you painted the same green above the picture rail, and do the ceiling as well. For sure go full-length with the drapery.
You can buy separate blackout liners from JC Penney that simply hook on to the back of the drapery panels.
You might also consider these, in the light green/natural colorway. I think the texture would be nice, but the overall feel is simple, and light. Being thermal lined would solve your light and insulation issues. And as you can see, they come in a wide range of sizes that should allow you to avoid custom. I could see the box pleat valance being a nice touch, too.
JCP also does made to measure, which are cheaper than true custom drapery.

Finished painting and now need to choose . . .
Painted the room the creme puff color yesterday. Pics to follow. It made such a difference! Thank you all so much for guiding me in the right direction! It really warmed the room! I call it my "happy room" and the DH "library inspired" masculine livingroom is now the "doom and gloom" room, lol! Since I have the Audubon pictures on the wall, I was thinking perhaps I could use wall lamps on either side of the couch. That would free up room on the tables, which are small due to the small size of the room. Here are a few pics of those that I found. Which do you guys prefer--or am I way off base again?
I'm a big fan of wall lamps for this sort of arrangement. Very useful, keeps the table tops clear, you can't knock them over, you can move them about to suit you, and they also help anchor the arrangement on the wall.
Two things -
I'd recommend ones with creamy white fabric shades. For that kind of lighting beside where you sit, you will be unhappy with bare bulbs, or any configuration where you see the bulb itself.
Creamy white, because any other color will color the light, and after your careful color choosing, you don't want to make it dingy, or otherwise affect the colors - you want the benefit of clear ambient light.
And take care not to hang them too high. You shouldn't be able to see the bulb base or the bulb when you are sitting there.
My rule of thumb for normal height seating is that the bottom of the shade should land between 42" and 45" off the floor, depending on the design of the fixture.
Thanks for your help, bronwynsmom. I did find this candle sconce that I just LOVE, but not sure if it would work. I know it won't help with lighting. I would hve to find another was to bring light into the room. This is a very bright room, though. Would only need light after dark.
New paint color. The picture does not do it justice. It really warms up, especially when the afternoon sun comes in! It actually is the same color that is used in the top three pictures in the sky!
Doesn't that look lovely! You must be so pleased. Good job, you!
Now. Think of the candle sconce as a mad crush on the wrong boy.
You have to marry these lamps...and as we all know, love is a necessary but not sufficient condition for happiness.
So they DO need to help with, or even take the lead in, lighting.
And after dark is when you want really good lighting.
I know you know this. Your head is just turned by infatuation. This kind of passion is what causes most of the design mistakes we all make, but editing with a cool head is key.
Bronwynsmom, I always love reading and thinking about your posts! Flymom, I like the softness of the bottom left fixture you posted. The rounded edges make it look friendly. The third one from the top, while attractive, looks too formal to me -- like you'd have to sit up straight in its presence.
You're both too kind.
I've trolled one site with whom I've had some experience ordering, and posted four for you to look at. I particularly like the last two, which have that nice vertical presence on the wall.
Still unable to use my Flickr page, and I'll start over when I have time, but perhaps you can pull them down and post them? Sorry to make work for you.
Here is a link that might be useful: Four possible wall lamps
bronwynsmon, I do mind doing some work at all! Unfortunately, I could not access the pictures. (Need a sad face icon, lol!) saypoint, the lamp link was from bellacor. I did see it on several other sites during my search. It is a lovely lamp.
All of them are available from Lamps Plus. Here's all of them:
#1 Ivory Square Shade Brass Beaded Plug-In Style Swing Arm Wall Lamp Style # 77426-23875
#2 Robert Abbey Koleman Brass Plug-In Swing Arm Wall Lamp Style # U2414
#3 - Brass Star of the Show Plug-In Swing Arm Wall Lamp Style # 39864
#4 - Brass Scroll And Shade Plug-In Swing Arm Wall Lamp (65023)
#5 - Antique Brass Acorn Plug-In Swing Arm Wall Lamp Style # 65210
Here is a link that might be useful: Lamps Plus wall lamps
Gorgeous paint. Is it Cream Puff by Behr? I love the first lamp you posted, but maybe with a white lamp shade (although I REALLY like the color/texture, but not if it changes your paint color as bronwynsmom says).
TheFoxesPad, the third one down was from Bellacor. I am stil struggling. It seems the brass and antique brass lamps are so much more expensive than the brushed nickel. Like three times as much! I love the antique brass but I am beginning to think for the price, I may have to choose another finish.
Flymom, I know we all have budget constraints, but lamps are worth a little extra to get good ones. Anything of real quality under $175-200 is very hard to find. I'm constantly nagging everyone to spend a little more on two things that they want to cheap out on - light fixtures, and picture framing.
It's like buying a beautiful dress at Saks, and wearing it with junk jewelry and cheap shoes. Do it the other way 'round. A black T-shirt dress from Marshall's and shoes from Saks with one really good gold bracelet is far better. Think of those lamps as the good gold bracelet.

Cybernetics' Virtual Tape Libraries are designed to eliminate the challenges you face in archiving and protecting your valuable data. Our units are incredibly easy to install, manage, scale and will adapt as your network changes.
A VTL is a storage device that emulates one or multiple tape drives/libraries. It's designed to greatly reduce your backup window and increase your restore speeds, especially when compared to tape drives. They can also reduce the amount of disk storage you need for long term data retention and minimize the bandwidth required for site-to-site replication.
By appearing as tape, you have 100% compatibility with any backup software that supports tape without any operational learning curve. This includes BackupExec, ARCserve, CommVault, Tivoli, DPM, native i5/OS backup commands, BRMS, Robot/SAVE, IPL and many more. There are no additional software/agents required. Whether you're running Windows, i5/OS or any Unix derivative, a single VTL can protect your entire data center easily. A well engineered VTL does not format the disk drives with a file system, thereby eliminating the need for virus scanning and defragmenting overhead; increasing your read/write performance. This is traditionally faster than using DAS, NAS and SAN for a backup repository. By emulating tape at the block level on disk, any off-line copies sent off-site via physical tape will remain compatible with your backup software. In an emergency situation, restores can be done without access to the virtual tape library.
By utilizing a fault tolerant design, backups and restores become redundant. Unlike tape drives, jobs do not easily fail. With RAID protection, redundant power supplies and multiple connections supported, your data is highly available when you need it.
As your data grows, so does the backup window. By installing a virtual tape library, you can reduce the time it takes to protect your data. It's not atypical to see a twenty hour backup to tape take less than an hour with a VTL. Restoring your applications and data is faster as well. What takes seconds and minutes with a virtual tape library can take many hours with a physical tape library. With tape, traditionally one backup job is created per tape drive. Multi-threading different backup jobs to one tape drive is supported by some software packages but cripples your restore speed. Virtual tape libraries can emulate many tape drives. Simultaneous backup jobs to one VTL greatly enhances your backup performance without negatively impacting restore times.
Many corporations are looking to eliminate tape or greatly reducing their reliance on it by deploying virtual tape libraries. Technologies like deduplication and replication ensure you have multiple copies of your data in different geographic locations. You can store months to years worth of backups on cost-effective and redundant disk while needing less bandwidth.
Unlike tape, disk backup solutions are easy to scale. Add more capacity dynamically when needed. Our virtual tape libraries can be purchased with just the capacity you need today and as your data grows, more disk drives can be added into the enclosure and expansion cabinets. With our modular design, you can change the transport protocols as needed. Use SCSI, SAS, iSCSI (1GbE and 10GbE) and FC (8G and 16G) simultaneously and upgrade to faster versions when available.
Backups performed to a Cybernetics' virtual tape library can be offloaded to removable disk and/or tape. Multiple tape drives and libraries can be directly connected to the VTL via SAS/FC/iSCSI for off-line archiving. Unless encryption is utilized, tapes are not proprietary and can be restored using a tape drive and your regular backup software.
Cybernetics' virtual tape libraries offer encryption "at rest" and "at flight". Backups stored on disk can be encrypted as well as data replicated. Offloads to attached tape and/or removable disk drives can also be encrypted.
If you can use a tape drive and your backup software, you can use our virtual tape library. With an easy "set it and forget it" interface, installation is super fast, traditionally less than an hour. Managing multiple virtual libraries can be done with one tab in your web browser. And if you need any assistance, access to our technical support team is a phone call away.
Cybernetics' virtual tape libraries are among the most cost-effective solutions available. Not only is the cost of acquisition lower than our competitors, capacity expansions and warranty extensions are lower as well. With deduplication and replication, you can also reduce the amount you pay for long term storage and recurring monthly bandwidth. You can also save time, money and headaches associated with managing the backups.

A 16 rd highcap mag when my dad first started carrying a gun in the 70's and 80's the potential enemy in question was basically just a man but since the mid 90's 1 or 2 shots just won't put some fool strung out on meth on the ground.it can take upto 4 shots and if there is more than 1 oponent and all you have is a 6 shot snubby you could be seriously hurt in spite of having already put a couple rounds into said meth addict
I use my .38 Taurus Mdl 85 fully loaded. I also do the same with my S&W Mdl 10-6
.38 I've carried them for many years. No problem.
Thanks for the input guys. Sounds like my Colt is good to go on full!

-Jean Carper, New York Times bestselling author of Stop Aging Now! and Your Miracle Brain, and columnist, USA Weekend magazine

-Fred Pescatore, M.D., author of Thin For Good, The Allergy and Asthma Cure, and Feed Your Kids Well

California's Green Economy Doubled Performance of Total Economy During Downturn
Job creation in California's clean energy/materials manufacturing sector increased by 53% from 1995 to 2010
When times get tough, companies often fall back on an old familiar phrase: "we just need to do more with less." That usually applies to human resources. But it's equally important with natural resources.
As it turns out, "green" companies in California that do more with fewer natural resources fared much better than companies in other sectors during the worst of America's economic troubles — more than doubling the performance of the broader economy.
A new report from the non-partisan environmental think tank Next 10 shows that between 2009 and 2010, the "core green economy" in California — comprised of companies that provide products or services to cut natural resource use, re-purpose waste, and reduce global warming pollution — experienced half the number of job losses seen in the state's broader economy.
Between January of 2009 and January of 2010, California's economy shed 7% of jobs; however, the green economy saw only a 3% reduction in jobs. And from 1995 to 2010, the green economy in the state grew by 53% — far outpacing the 12% growth in the rest of the economy during that period of time.
California's Core Green Economy shows signs of greater resilience than the economy as a whole. Over the past 16 years, its growth has outpaced the economy as a whole by more than a factor of four, and percentage losses are half those of the state's total employment.
Despite these losses, some segments posted employment gains in the most recent observable period (January 2009 to 2010). Employment in Energy Infrastructure increased 14 percent, Advanced Materials expanded by four percent while Clean Transportation and Energy Generation grew by one percent each. Across the value chain, Manufacturing jobs in the Core Green Economy expanded by one percent from January 2009 to 2010, the only value chain segment to do so.
The big story was job creation in the clean energy/materials manufacturing sector, which increased by 53% from 1995 to 2010 while jobs in the rest of the manufacturing sector dropped by 18%. And as the report authors note above, even though companies saw a substantial slowdown due to the economic crisis between 2009 and 2010, employment in green manufacturing saw a slight increase in employment of one percent.
These figures echo those in a recent report from the Brookings Institution showing that clean energy jobs nationwide expanded by 8.3% per year from 2003 to 2010, with the rest of the "clean economy" (a broader definition including public transit, recycling and next-generation materials) growing 8.3% during the height of the recession between 2008 and 2009.

Job creation in California's clean energy/materials manufacturing sector increased by 53% from 1995 to 2010
There are numerous studies that show subsidizing the creation of a job in renewables sectors, includes the wind and solar sectors, causes up to 3.7 times the job destruction in other sectors, for a net LOSS of up to 2.7 jobs. Just google it.
There are similar studies that show creating a job in government destroys about 2 jobs in the private sector, because money is taken from the private sector to create and susatain a job in the public sector.
"It bears noting that the definition includes production of heat. While a lot of the focus has been on micro-generation of electricity, in many US electricity markets, substantial penetration of solar-assisted air conditioning (either solar dehumidifying, cooling, or both) would also have substantial market impacts, since in summer-peaking regions, AC power demand is a driver for the annual demand ..."
"It would be more accurate to say that nuclear produces 99% of Virginia's emission-free electricity, since the EIA reports that nuclear is 36% of Virginia's total electricity production (3.5 GW of nuclear).It is a little appreciated fact that nuclear power makes it easy to achieve high levels of decarbonization of the grid; this amount of nuclear power does not get in the way of adding more ..."
"Jesse, much interesting food for thought here.I think it's important we keep our eyes on the prize. If economic development (GDP) is "baked in" as a primary goal, along with that comes increased consumption, making our problem more difficult. Idealistically, we should set improving the average U.N. ..."
"This article, and the position of the EDF in general, bothers me. It's not that I totally disagree. In fact I agree that there's a large potential for reducing energy consumption. But the EDF presents it as if it were easy and no big deal. "We can afford to shut down those old nuclear plants ..."

HAVE: Arc en Ciel, Red Spider & James Brydon lilies
jan2(z5 Illinois)May 22, 2011
Did some splitting and repotting this morning and I have 2 nice size Arc en Ciel (light pink flower, multi colored leaves), many small Red Spider (cactus shape red flower) and many small James Brydon (cup shape fuschia flower) hardy lilies. And some small mystery lilies (believe they are Graziella (changeable). Large ponds only on the Arc en Ciel. Both the Red Spider and James Brydon also do better in large pots/ponds. Graziella is a small spread lily that will do well in smaller ponds.

Very nice for the price!
Sandra from Saint Paul, MN– Verified Buyer
I had purchased a metal shelf with baskets for about the same price a few months ago, and although cute - it was horrible! The baskets were so tight and an absolute struggle to pull them out and just maddening to try to put them back again. I still liked the style, so I set out to something reasonable for those baskets and smaller baskets for the metal frame. This works perfectly. I received it in no time. It was very easy to put together even for one person, and it's stable. Best of all the baskets fit nicely and they are now usable. It also would be a great bookshelf, so if I get tired of the baskets it still will have plenty of uses.
Eliza from MA– Verified Buyer
I ordered two of these shelves to put in a guest bathroom that has little storage. I purchased my own baskets for a lighter, more creative look, and brightly colored towels stored in the baskets "pop" against the dark wood. I rated them down one star, as they aren't as big or sturdy as I'd imagined, but over-all, I'm very happy with them.
Pleased customer
Thomas from Crestview, FL– Verified Buyer
I ordered this shelving set without the baskets and must say, was impressed by the quality.
Very Nice ...but did not pay attention NO Baskets
EH from NEWARK, CA– Verified Buyer

First with the pros. It's fantastic! I was looking for something that wasn't BIG, like my other bookshelf, because, well, Randy (my big bookshelf) can get jealous, and also I didn't want another big bookshelf towering over me. So I picked this nice medium sized bookshelf for [$]. It's got 3 shelves, and it's dimensions are 42" H x 25.25" W x 11.25" D. Almost all of my books fit in there, which actually surprised me because I had a lot of books in my floor! I played Tetris with my books, got creative, and made it work (as you can see in the picture above). Also if you are in a dorm this would be a great fit for you, believe me I am in college too and this bookshelf did wonders.Other than picking all my books from the floor, this shelf is great because it looks great. It's an open concept, no black panel in the back to make it look all depressing, but rather it has something in the back that keeps the books from falling. Also this shelf is sort of like my DVD Shelf because it has this openings on the side, which I'm glad about because now it looks like I have a theme of sorts xDAnd finally the shelf doesn't wiggle! At all! And it's so easy to put together. I needed it to be easy to put together because, well, I'm not that good with stuff like this and if it was harder it would be pain in the butt. You can even put it together without instructions (though I had mine). [...]

Dei from Brooklyn, NY– Verified Buyer
It's a great storage shelf. However, the product image is a little misleading. I thought it came with the baskets as well. At least let shoppers have the option to purchase the baskets as an additional item.
Very nice addition!
Book Reviews by Jess from Waynesboro, PA– Verified Buyer
I chose this bookcase for several reasons. The first would be because of the color. I love dark wood. The second was the number of shelves. I liked that this one has 3 shelves and it's not too tall. I have a 5 shelf bookcase in another room and it's massively tall. And lastly, I would actually pay [$]for this bookcase.This bookcase is 100% all wood. It's not laminated press board or anything like that. It's fairly heavy and sturdy. The finish is very nicely done. There are some minor flaws that are to be expected of real wood ie knots and grooves.[...] Putting it together took about an hour. I put it together all by myself, bright and early this morning. It came with the required screws and the allen wrench. It was a bit tricky to get the allen wrench to work properly but no real hick ups.I did end up moving it to the dining room table because to turn the allen wrench you needed space between the shelf and the floor.I decided to put it in my living room beside the fish tank. I can now see my books from my seat on the love seat. The top row are books that need to be read and reviewed. The middle are books I've won and one or two that I've purchased. The bottom row are books I've completed and already reviewed left side standing or need reviewed left side laying down.So there you have it! A great little bookcase that's functional, elegant, and not too pricey! [...]See pictures on from my review on my blog:[@]
very sturdy shelf
Jennifer from Watertown, NY– Verified Buyer
This shelf is true to description. Just remember that it does not come with the baskets.
I need to buy some baskets for them now. Put them together to see effect first.

Researchers Expose Detox Methods As Myth
Scientists warn there is no conclusive evidence that products widely promoted to help the body "detox" work.
After a review of 15 products, from bottled water to face scrub, the charitable trust Sense About Science found many detox claims were "meaningless".
The trust found that anyone worried about the after-effects of Christmas overindulgence would get the same benefits from eating healthy and getting plenty of sleep.
Advertising regulators said they looked at such issues on a case-by-case basis.
Research members of the Voice of Young Science network began the investigation by starting a campaign to unpick "dodgy" science claims""where companies use phrases that sound scientific but do not actually have any real meaning.
The group challenged several companies' products such as vitamins, shampoo, detox patches and a body brush on the evidence they had to support the detox claims made.
None of the companies offered the same definition of detox, which the Oxford English Dictionary defines as "the removal of toxic substances or qualities".
The scientists said that in the majority of cases, producers and retailers were forced to admit that they had simply renamed processes like cleaning or brushing, as detox.
One researcher investigated a Garnier face wash that claimed to detoxify the skin by removing toxins. She said the "toxins" turned out to be the dirt, make-up and skin oils that any cleanser would be expected to remove.
A five-day detox plan from Boots, which claimed to detoxify the body and flush away toxins, was also criticized for not being backed by sufficient evidence.
If consumers followed the healthy diet that was recommended alongside the supplement, they would probably feel better – but it would have nothing to do with the product itself, according to Evelyn Harvey, a biologist who looked into the product.
At worst, some detox diets could have dangerous consequences and, at best, they were a waste of money, the researchers said.
"The minimum sellers of detox products should be able to offer is a clear understanding of what detox is and proof that their product actually works," said Tom Wells, a chemist who took part in the research. "The people we contacted could do neither."
Alice Tuff from Sense About Science added that it was ridiculous that society is seeing a return to mystical properties being claimed for products in the 21st Century.
"I'm really pleased that young scientists are sharing their concerns about this with the public," she added.
If a complaint was made, the Advertising Standards Authority said it would investigate such claims on a case-by-case basis.
"If a product is making claims not substantiated by the evidence submitted by the company we would challenge that."
A representative from Boots said its five-day detox plan encouraged people to drink water and includes ingredients that "battle against toxins and help protect from the dangers of free radicals".
"All Garnier products undergo rigorous testing and evaluation to ensure that our claims are accurate and noticeable by our consumers," according to a spokesperson from Garnier.

Not the QL's I knew back 20 years ago. The ribs were a bit dry as was the chicken. The quality of the food was good but once again not up to the rating of QL's of the past.
Don't eat here. I think they closed it due to health violations but the food is awful and the place is filthy.
We used to really like this place back in the day, however, we have noticed that the children are not running this place like it used to be run. We have shown up several times at both locations on different days only to be told that they had run out of meat and/or no side items were left. When we...
This place has the best bbq ever! their bbq tips are amazzzing! good prices, good food! can't beat it!
QL's is a hole in the wall drive up eatery that has been a staple favorite in Muncie since the 1960's. I have been and lived all over the United States and tried many barbeque eateries but QL's is still tops my list.
this place has the BEST sauce. It has been a local favorite for at least 30 years. This family owned business should sell its secret sauce recipe to a big name bottler like Kraft. It is that good!
QLs is a hidden gem in Muncie, not a fancy place, to go orders only with some of the best ribs,chicken,pulled pork on a consistent basis.
Dont judge the book by the cover, if you can find this place it is worth the hunt.
Visited the Q L's in The Village (co-located with Grandma Betty's Ice Cream) and got a pulled pork sandwich, chips and drink for under $5.00.
Pork had just the right amount of sauce on a commercial bun that really complimented the sandwich. Meat was tender, with big strings of slow cooked pig goodness that showed someone truly cares for the...
Great tips..bad area of town. You cant eat at this place, its a drive thru. Ribs, chicken and tips are amazing!!

Cold, Flu, & Cough Health Center
Prevent Flu: Healthy Habits Beat the Virus
To prevent flu -- or any illness -- you've got to stick with a healthy lifestyle.
"I really believe your immune system takes care of a lot of things," says Erica Brownfield, MD, a professor of internal medicine at Emory University School of Medicine in Atlanta. "Even if you've been exposed to the flu, you don't have to get it."
Recommended Related to Cold & Flu
By Jeannette MoningerRelax - there are sane ways to protect your kids from bad bugs. You've always followed the smart woman's anti-germ playbook: regular hand washing, once-a-day kitchen counter wiping, and the like. But become a mom, and suddenly the basic precautions feel wildly inadequate. You find yourself stocking up on antibacterial wipes, obsessively scrubbing under your nails, and scrutinizing your friends' personal hygiene habits. But you may be going too far: The vast majority of...
Read the The Real Deal on Germs article > >
The best flu prevention strategy is basic -- good nutrition, regular exercise, and enough sleep, she tells WebMD. "You can also wash hands frequently, and avoid people who have the flu. But really, it's hard to prevent contact with germs. Keeping yourself healthy is generally the best defense against the flu."
Making It Work Every Day
- Eat your vegetables. A well-nourished immune system is better able to fight off infections. It's got to be fueled with natural vitamins and antioxidants found in healthy foods. Eat dark-green, red, and yellow vegetables and fruits. They're packed with numerous antioxidants, plus vitamins A, C, E, and beta-carotene.
- Exercise regularly. Every time you walk or run, you're boosting your body's immunity, the natural defense against viruses. A daily 30-minute walk -- or three 10-minute walks -- is the minimum you need. Doing more provides greater health benefits.
- Get plenty of sleep. Most adults need about 7 to 8 hours sleep. Teens need more -- about 9 hours daily. Growing kids need from 10 to 12 hours of sleep.
- Reduce stress. Some stress is good, but know when to relax. Too much stress impairs the immune system.
"There are no guarantees," says Robert Schwartz, MD, chairman of family medicine at the University of Miami School of Medicine. "You can do all these things, lead an absolutely healthy lifestyle, and still get sick. But if you're healthy and your immune system is working, it's possible to avoid getting the flu. At least, you will be sick less often anyway."

Rhode Island's next governor - whether it's Republican Allan Fung or Democrat Gina Raimondo - will have plenty of challenges to tackle upon taking office. The state's ailing economy will most likely hold the spotlight over the next eight weeks until the general election. But perhaps I could put a few health care items on the agenda for their consideration - and for the general assembly's.
Republican gubernatorial candidates Ken Block and Allan Fung traded barbs Monday about which of them is the best choice for governor. It happened at new conference Block held near Cranston City Hall.
Block held his press conference inside a Cranston diner, about a block from City Hall, as a reminder of how Fung taped a jobs-related campaign ad in an Ohio diner. He criticized Fung for raising taxes early in his administration, and Block also rapped Fung for his oversight of Cranston's police department.
The Democratic candidates running for governor took part in a special, live edition of The Political Roundtable. Todd Giroux, Clay Pell, Gina Raimondo and Angel Taveras answered questions from our moderators and asked each other questions.
You can hear the program in its three segments here:
A senate committee will vote Wednesday on legislation that would ultimately put the governor and lieutenant governor on a joint ticket. The bill co-sponsored by Senate President Teresa Paiva Weed would let voters decide on a constitutional amendment linking the two top offices.
Paiva Weed said previous lieutenant governors have had to define their own roles, while this legislation would make them an assistant to the governor.
A so-called "people's pledge" has been hammered out and agreed to by the three leading democratic candidates running for governor. The goal is to limit outside spending.
To limit that outside spending, Clay Pell, Gina Raimondo, and Angel Taveras have agreed to a pledge calling for any candidate who benefits from an ad bought by an outside group to make a charitable donation for the same amount of the ad buy.
The four Democrats running for governor mostly agreed with one another on a host of issues during a forum Monday sponsored by a liberal think tank, the Economic Progress Institute. The issues included jobs, safety net programs, and taxes.
Gov. Lincoln Chafee has selected the artist who will paint his official portrait. The Rhode Island artist beat out 123 others in the national search.
Julie Gearan said there was something about the fact that she's not a traditional portrait painter combined with Chafee not being a traditional politician that drew her to apply for the job of painting his official portrait.
Democratic gubernatorial candidate Gina Raimondo says Rhode Island needs to do a better job of developing tourism as a spark plug for the economy. Raimondo unveiled a tourism plan Wednesday morning as part of her campaign for the state's top job.
Todd Giroux officially announced Tuesday that he's running for governor. Giroux declared he'd run as a democrat back in October.
Giroux is a 43-year-old Woonsocket native. He's a general contractor who specializes in historic preservation. He ran for governor in 2010 as an independent.
Giroux said he'll be a governor who listens and responds. "We need a governor that has a steady hand on the rudder of this state," he said. "And if we provide a commerce fund, an infrastructure fund then we have the tools that support the jobs plan."
Democratic gubernatorial candidate Gina Raimondo started fleshing out her vision for Rhode Island as she formally announced her campaign Monday morning.
Raimondo emphasized the economy, laying out ideas that include writing off some college loans to encourage grads to stay in Rhode Island, creating a funding formula for road and bridge improvements, and establishing an institute to foster growth-sector jobs.

|Property type
|Minimum Stay
|3 nights
Aqua Villa's Sunset has a spectacular and secluded location, with glorious 180 degree ocean views on a slight hillside. Sit on the private deck and enjoy the breeze, watch sunrise and sunset. Relish the tranquility- all you can hear is the sound of the sea and the wind. Starry nights are spectacular, you may even see shooting stars. Your own private beach and dock 100 yards away!
House on the Hill is 1200 sq feet, has Master bedroom with King size bed, Guest room with queen size bed and kids room with full and single beds. 2 full Bathrooms and outdoor shower. A large comfortable great room with open kitchen and vaulted wooden ceilings. Barbecue on the deck, paddle boards and Kayak available.You can even Bone fish in the front yard bring your fly rod! It is fully air- conditioned. All rooms have a great view of the Ocean. Brand new Washer and Dryer.
We loved the House on the Hill -- everything about it was wonderful! It was very clean, beautifully decorated and had everything we needed! Eric was so great to work with and checked in on our last day to make sure everything went smoothly and we had everything we needed! We would definitely stay here again! Thank you Eric!!
Our stay in the House on the Hill was very relaxing. The house is very comfortable with beautiful views of the water and stunning sunsets. Good follow-up from our host Eric Newman, dealing with him was very pleasant. Exuma is authentic. Part of the road close to the house from the main road is a bit challenging just have to take your time. A wonderful addition is Fanny's, a local bar run by Steve (from Charlie's/Fish Fry) and Vincent just as you turn on to the road from the highway to the house. You don't need to drive to Georgetown if you just want a drink, BBQ ribs/chicken/pork with garlic bread and good company. Would definitely go back.
Our trip to the Bahamas was amazing! We have 3 boys ages 13, 10, and 5 and the house on the hill fit us perfectly! There was plenty of room for us all, it was very clean and well-maintained, the views of the water and the sunrise and sunset were unbelievable. The owner was incredibly nice and very responsive to my many questions as we planned our trip. Once we arrived, everything on his recommended list of 'things to do' was a hit, we especially loved the Sunday drive to the north end of the island (rolleville) and lunch on the beautiful beach! We also really enjoyed taking a boat trip through Robert's Island Adventures-they took us all the way to Staniel Key and back and we highly recommend this trip-well worth it! Overall we couldn't have asked for anything more-this house is great with a close commute to georgetown and an easy walk to a private beach/swimming and fishing area with a great dock. Can't wait to return!
what a great clean well kept home it was better than the photos and the Island was quite and the beaches are the best i have ever seen. The house on the hill was perfect it had everything we needed and more. The layout was perfect for our large group we had great meals and the views at night are amazing. Cant wait to go back great house to stay in thanks!!!
This lovely 3 bedroom house isn't directly on the ocean but it may as well be with it's fabulous views. It's literally steps from a lovely mini beach. The house is emasculate. Exuma is amazing. I can't wait to go back. Highly recommended!
You have to unterstand the rustic Island life style but this home makes it even better!!!! Only 150 feet from a private beach and the greatest sandbar walking trip of my entire life. Eric was great to work with and coming from another country he spent time with me that really helped my family enjoy the Island thanks for a great time we will be back 100% for sure

Buffalo Sabres Finally Win
It took eight games and an overtime shootout to do it, but the Sabres finally have their first win of the season.
It took eight games and an overtime shootout to do it, but the Sabres finally have their first win of the season.
For former Buffalo Sabres captain Jason Pominville it was a script that couldn't have played out any better. He scored the winning goal in his first game against his old team to give the Minnesota Wild a 2-1 win Monday night at First Niagara Center. But with the Sabres averaging just one goal a game in the their first seven games just about any goal could turn out to be a game winner. He says it was a good ending to an emotional day for him -
The Buffalo Sabres remain winless after six games this season. They battled the defending Stanley Cup champion Chicago Blackhawks to the end but still came up short 2-1 in Chicago Saturday night.
General manager Darcy Regier said last spring there would be suffering as the Buffalo Sabres rebuild with young players, with a Stanley Cup championship as their ultimate goal.
I never imagined the suffering would be this bad so early in the season.
It's tough enough when they're having trouble scoring goals and winning games. They don't need bogus officiating calls go against them.
It's not every day you see Ryan Miller fight in a hockey game. Actually, I don't know if I can recall him fighting ever during a game as a Sabre. But, tonight was the night.
Chaos ensued during the third period of the game, immediately after Buffalo's Corey Tropp and Toronto's Jamie Devane dropped the gloves
Steve Ott let the cat out of the bag today on Twitter. If you've been wondering what the third jersey would look like for the 2013-2014 Buffalo Sabres, you don't have to wonder anymore.
Patrick Kaleta is not only an important part of the Buffalo Sabres -- he is also an important part of our community. Kaleta and his Helping Individuals Smile Foundation had plans to put hockey ice rinks at the site of the old Wal-Mart in Hamburg, but it looks like that will be put on hold, at least for a little while longer.
Four months after being fired as coach of the Buffalo Sabres, Lindy Ruff has agreed to take over behind the bench of the Dallas Stars.
With many people speculating about the status of Ryan Miller at the end of this season, the Sabres had a question mark next to the name that would be standing between the pipes. Today they ensured that at least one of their goaltenders will be back.
Being a sports fan is easy when you are supporting winning teams...but it takes a lot to support a constantly losing team!
According to this article from Guy Code on MTV, Buffalo is #4 on the list of 5 Cities That Should Quit at Sports. The article states "these five cities need to do everybody a favor and call it quits".
The Buffalo Sabres made it official on Tuesday by removing the interim tag and naming Ron Rolston the team's permanent head coach. Rolston took over the team in February after the dismissal of Lindy Ruff and led the team to a 15-11-5 record in the 31 games he was behind the bench. Rolston becomes the Sabres' 16th all-time head coach.
