SD Unified hit with another credit rating drop
Standard & Poor's action comes on the heels of Moody's downgrade
News of S&P's move was raised briefly by Ron Little, the chief financial officer for the district, at a school board meeting Tuesday night before the trustees agreed to scrap most of a controversial plan to close or realign more that a dozen schools.
Meanwhile, the board passed a motion to hire consultant Larry Remer for $30,000 to assess the viability of placing a general obligation bond measure on the ballot next year. Through a property tax, a bond could help pay for some of the repairs and upgrades not covered in the 2008 Proposition S bond measure. While the bond could not go directly to salaries, Barnett said it could free up general fund money to pay teachers.
Last week, Little said Moody's downgrade by itself would likely have minimal impact on borrowing costs because it essentially brought Moody's rating to the same level as that of Standard & Poor's. He said borrowing costs are generally set on the lower rating.
Now S&P has set a new floor.
Little said Tuesday night that would increase the price of long-term borrowing for the district's general obligation bonds, though not for short-term borrowing. He did not give details on how much.
"It's disappointing," he said of the downgrade "I wouldn't call it surprising, it's disappointing. Often the credit agencies move in tandem."
Condern over years of budget cuts and the prospect of midyear cuts seemed to accelerate in the past month with grim pronouncements about the district's financial status along with proposals to close schools, cut pay, delay raises and raise taxes.
Three weeks ago, Unified Superintendent Bill Kowba warned that midyear budget cuts due to insufficient state revenues could be "the starting point on the road to insolvency and state takeover."
Unified faces $33 million in state midyear cuts to its $1.057 billion operating budget, and anticipated deficit of about $60 to $118 million in the next fiscal year.
A spokesman for Moody's said the discussion of insolvency did not play into last week's downgrading, which was based on he district's "substantially narrowed financial flexibility."
On Tuesday, the board was originally scheduled to consider a sweeping proposal by Barnett that he said would save the district $92 million. But late Monday — less than 12 hours after he unveiled the proposal — he announced he was pulling the matter from the agenda for a couple of weeks to further analyze district financial data.
Barnett's plan called for a 10 percent pay cut, deferred raises and a hike in health care contributions. He also proposed placing a $50 parcel tax proposal on the ballot to restore the pay cuts.
The proposal was immediately criticized by two of the other four school trustees, the teachers union and the San Diego County Taxpayers Association, an organization Barnett once led.
Early in Tuesday night's meeting, Unified Superintendent Bill Kowba addressed the roller coaster budget talks that have stirred anxiety throughout the district for weeks and explained his own actions.
"I had to start talking about the threat of insolvency — not to signal that the sky is falling… more in the pursuit of transparency and candidness," Kowba said.

For the summer I like having Yards PPA as my commercial pale ale in the refrig.
Yesterday I bought a case and 32$!!! seems way too high for a beer brewed less than 100 miles from me. Anyone else who likes this have a close clone recipe? or any suggestions for their hop profile? I would like to use a good IPA base and make it a little maltier with something close to their hop flavor to get a homebrew to substitute. For the life of me I can not separate out individual components of the beers I drink so any help would be appreciated.
$32, odd -- considering I got the Yards variety pack for $20 and change from lower bucks co.
I'm wondering the same thing, because I just fell in love with this beer (best in the box) and would love to do a clone.
If I had to guess: Heavy on Pils Malt (based on the web site), British Ale Yeast, and an American hop mix --- one guy on beeradvocate is saying Simcoe, but I'm not trained enough to tell.
This is also one of my long-time-favorites. I spoke with a few of the guys @ Yards recently and got some basic info to put this together... I took a total shot in the dark with the crystal 60 and carapils, but the grain bill has already been milled together, so I'm gonna try this out tomorrow:
Philly Pale Clone - American Pale Ale ()

Thanks timuel
let us know how it turns out
going on vacation and a conference so can not brew until august but will give it a try then. am thinking crystal 20 but let me know how the malt profile turns out and the color. from more that I've read the hops sound close thanks
i kegged it lastnight. pretty damn close, but here are some slightly premature observations:
Next time I think i'll try 5.5lbs american pilsner, 4lbs american 2-row + 1lb crystal 40. I'd also change all of the flavoring hop additions to around .35oz @ 15 mins.
have not had a chance to brew due to work, vacation and a couple of conferences over the past 2 months. went and bought a case today for a crab and clam bake tomorrow and was $35.82. (ouch) so am anxious to hear how this turns out. once past this timeperiod I'll be able to brew a couple of batches to try to help you hone in on the recipe. also want to try to get a basic recipe for Rickard's red which I'll be working on over the autumn. my only 2 projects for brewing right now.
it was good... i really like it. it's in the same vein, but i certainly wouldn't call it a clone.
The color is considerably darker. There is substantially more mouthfeel (almost chewy). The pilsner malt does not come through very well. It could use a tiny bit more bittering and flavor hops. I don't think the real stuff is dry-hopped at all, but the 1.5oz of simcoe faded a bit and was a pleasant addition.
I intend to fix the above by:
- mashing lower. i lose about 2 deg/hr so next time want to start my mash @ around 152 instead of 155.
- losing the carapils and crystal 60 (what was i thinking?). I might use 8oz of crystal 20, max, but i'm thinking that the real stuff is 100% american pils.
- increasing the flavor hops just a little. i want the pils and the carbonation to give a little bite instead of increasing IBU's that much.
This will be my next attempt:
Batch Size: 5.500 gal
Boil Size: 6.250 gal
Boil Time: 1.000 hr
Efficiency: 80%%
Bitterness: 30.5 IBUs (Tinseth)
Color: 4 SRM (Morey)

i read several articles about interface builder but its not getting clear to me.
All I want to do is create a separate class(viewSwitcher) for switching the views of my app. A method take two arguments of uiview type and by using transitionfromview it switches app views.
I want to create objects in interface builder not to code by hand and pass it to my viewSwitcher class.
I am trying to take maximum advantage of interface builder less code and put interfce builder on work.
How can I do that?

Engineer by day, master beer brewer by night.
Let's see.....a few things about myself. In a nutshell, I'm an engineer by day and beer brewer/brewmaster by night, haha. But as far as career goes, I work in the Aerospace Industry as a Senior Project Engineer. I work very hard and have goals I want to achieve but I also play hard. I'm a firm believer that we work to live, not live to work. I try to live a pretty active life in general. I play baseball, softball, and tennis whenever I can fit it in, I also occasionally golf but it's tough when your friends don't play. I honestly have one too many hobbies, haha. I'm a huge Dodgers & Lakers fan and I try to go to as many games as I can every year. I also follow Boxing and MMA. I'm a big mixed martial arts fan and try to watch every UFC fight I can. I also watch Rugby and my favorite team is the New Zealand All Blacks, always fun to watch the pregame Haka. Enough about me...About her: I'd like to meet someone that hopefully shares a few of my interests. Not all of them, just some. Someone that can teach me something and be willing to share their interests with me. It would be great if she didn't mind going to car shows with me once in a while, going to the movies, concerts, and maybe occasionally watch an F1 race with me. I love cars, racing, the outdoors, and anything related to sports. If she likes any of those things then we're off to a great start. I find that a girl that knows her way around a hood, or wishes to learn, to be an extremely attractive quality. I mean, I find out you're good with a wrench and aren't afraid to get a little dirty you're automatically HOT in my book. The same can be said about a woman who can drive a car with a manual transmission.

Nice sturdy compact table. Great for small rooms. Got it for my son coming home to start school again at the local community college. He likes it a lot.
Loved this desk. I was looking for a computer desk that did not take up a lot of space. This one was perfect. It fit in the required space neatly, and was easy to assemble. I was able to fit both my hard drive and printer on the lower shelf. Great desk at a great price!
I needed a small desk for my livingroom, this desk was perfect for what i needed. I LOVED it. It was very easy to put together.
I contacted the manufacturer directly regarding the 2 stripped screws. Without any hassle or questions the said they would send out a replacement desk. I was floored that it wasn't a fight and that this company stands by their product with wonderful customer service. We are planning on using the desk in a motor home. I think it will be a perfect fit both in the coach and in storage.
This computer desk was delivered very quickly - was easy to put together and is exactly what I needed in my spare bedroom. It looks nice.
great size and perfect fit. love the desk
Easy small desk for computer.
This desk is very compact, durable and sturdy. It was very easy to assemble and does not take up much space at all. I would recommend this purchase to a friend. I love it!
This is a sturdy product. It is just the right size for my small apartment. THe Whole thing fits into a 29" by 29" area in my bedroom. I would recommend this item. If you are alone to put it together,its not easy. The assembly is, but you have to have four hands. Also, for a rookie like me, please familiarlize yourself between a phillips head, and a wrench!!. Assembly is very easy.
We did have a few quality issues (peeling veneer) but for the price it really is a great little desk and perfect for a student.

[IMAGE]Premier-1.jpg[/IMAGE]Knoxville, Tenn.-based Premier Transportation took delivery of five brand new 2010 model T2145 Van Hools from ABC Companies, adding to its 20 coach fleet.
The five coaches are the first in Tennessee to be equipped with three-point seat belts. The coaches are also wrapped in a custom graphics package and feature WiFi, In Motion satellite service, DVD and audio entertainment systems, enclosed parcel racks, panoramic rear windows and Alcoa DuraBright aluminum wheels.
Meanwhile, Cross Country Trailways of Spartanburg, S.C., recently added a new Van Hool C2045E to its fleet, which now totals 19 motorcoaches.
The 2010 C2045E has a Cummins engine coupled to an Allison transmission, matching the rest of Cross Country's all Van Hool fleet. The new coach also features Van Hool's exclusive contoured parcel racks with 6 large screen 22-inch video monitors, panoramic rear window, WiFi service, wireless PA microphone, Dura Bright aluminum wheels and a custom graphics design. The passenger seats have leather inserts and three-point seat belts.
ABC Companies also announced that Filip Van Hool was awarded the 2009 Bus Builder of the Year award at the BusWorld 2009 Show, in Kortrijk, Belgium.
The prestigious Bus Builder of the Year is a coveted prize sought by leading international competitors each year. Van Hool's two European spec models, the T915 Alicron Lite Bus and the T916 Astronef were both key to helping Van Hool secure this auspicious award.
The groups urged planners to add parking near the National Mall for the millions of people who will visit by bus and car over the next several months, kicking off with the National Cherry Blossom Festival.
In their meetings, UMA members shared information about their own businesses and rallied for backing of three critical needs: opposition of FMCSA's proposal to raise the Federal financial responsibility limits, support of Rep. Barletta's proposal to remove CSA scores from public view until the data used to calculate the score can be improved, and support to preserve the current charter service rule.
David Cooper of Pacific Coachways Trailways in Garden Grove, Calif., was presented by Bob Crescenzo, VP, safety & loss control, at Lancer Insurance, the awards event sponsor.
State police said the driver did not speak or understand English and did not know he was supposed to stop in Richmond, Va. The driver was reportedly dragged out of his chair, while the bus was swerving in and out of lanes for a half mile or so.
Suzanne Te Beau Rohde will succeed ABA's sr. VP, Government Affairs and Policy, Clyde Hart, who is retiring after 14 years.

My friends know that one of my "endearing" (aka borderline annoying) traits is my fascination (aka obsession) with songs and soundtrack music that spreads, virus-like throughout TV shows, commercials, promos, films, and movie trailers. I could list dozens of examples, but instead maybe one of these days I'll whip up a Hall of Fame article.
For now, I want to ennoble this Sunday (and wash the wretched taste out of my mouth from Death Racers) with Sigur Rós' "Hoppípolla," one of my favorite spirits-lifting songs of recent years. It feels like pure, distilled hope and joy, and lately it's been heard in the second half of the Slumdog Millionaire trailer:
For more on the group, the song, and other places it's popped up, follow me over the jump.
Sigur Rós is a magnificent Icelandic band whose name means "Victory Rose" and came from the lead singer's little sister, who was born the day the band was formed. "Hoppípolla" was released in 2005 on the album Takk… and appeared in the Children of Men trailer two years ago. And honestly, at that time I thought it was going to quickly reach a tipping point and start showing up everywhere (you know, like at the end of Grey's Anatomy):
But in fact, while it is often used in British and European promos, I didn't hear "Hoppípolla" anywhere for the next couple years. This year, however, it was used at the end of the film Penelope, which starred Christina Ricci as a girl with a porcine snout. (The scene, with James McAvoy, is available online, but it really is the climactic moment of the film, so I'll refrain from linking to it.)
With the Slumdog Millionaire trailer, this could be "Hoppípolla" second chance at reaching mainstream awareness in the U.S. (Or rather, increased awareness among music supervisors, so maybe it will end up on Grey's Anatomy one of these days. At which point it will instantly cease to be cool.)
Not a bad trick for a song that's in Icelandic. (A previous Sigur Rós album featured songs written entirely in "Hopelandic," a made-up language.) The title means "Jumping into Puddles" and the lyrics are about just that, while the official music video reinforces the theme of eternal childhood play and joy, even in the face of hardship. (The closing lines are:""And I get a nosebleed / But I always get up.")
And then there is this. Enjoy!
Know of other "Hoppípolla" appearances on TV, in films, or in promos? Let's hear about them!

Early in 1815, Louisa Catherine Adams and her young son left St. Petersburg in a heavy Russian carriage and set out on a difficult journey to meet her husband, John Quincy Adams, in Paris. She traveled through the snows of eastern Europe, down the Baltic coast to Prussia, across the battlefields of Germany, and into a France then experiencing the tumultuous events of Napoleon's return from Elba.

Early in 1815, Louisa Catherine Adams and her young son left St. Petersburg in a heavy Russian carriage and set out on a difficult journey to meet her husband, John Quincy Adams, in Paris. She traveled through the snows of eastern Europe, down the Baltic coast to Prussia, across the battlefields of Germany, and into a France then experiencing the tumultuous events of Napoleon's return from Elba. Along the way, she learned what the long years of Napoleon's wars had done to Europe, what her old friends in the royal court in Berlin had experienced during the French occupation, how it felt to have her life threatened by reckless soldiers, and how to manage fear.
The journey was a metaphor for a life spent crossing borders: born in London in 1775, she had grown up partly in France, and in 1797 had married into the most famous of American political dynasties and become the daughter-in-law of John and Abigail Adams.
The prizewinning historian Michael O'Brien reconstructs for the first time Louisa Adams's extraordinary passage. An evocative history of the experience of travel in the days of carriages and kings, Mrs. Adams in Winter offers a moving portrait of a lady, her difficult marriage, and her conflicted sense of what it meant to be a woman caught between worlds.
SHE WAS IN A HURRY, because anxious. And she disliked partings, all the business of embraces, regrets, and promises. So she began the journey and left the city without ceremony, while her friends were distracted at Sunday dinner, which in Saint Petersburg occurred at five o'clock. The Moika Canal sat frozen close to her small, leaking apartment, and the deep snow and the hour deadened sound.1 The unsteadiness of the horses, the ordering of the servants, the instructing of the postilions, the care of a small boy, the disposition of a heavy carriage on runners and a sled behind, the noise of three languages, the heaving of luggage, and the storing of provisions made a muffled confusion in the dusk.
She was right to be anxious, because she was committing herself mostly to strangers. Though she knew her servant John Fulling, the postilions were anonymous and she barely knew the French nurse, Madame Babet, who had only been employed that day. And there was a rough soldier called Baptiste, a prisoner of war she had agreed to take westward in exchange for his ser vices. Baptiste worried her.2
To be sure, she had pieces of paper that were reassuring. There was a Russian passport from the State Board of Foreign Affairs, which had been issued five days before. Written in German, "in pursuance of the edict of His Majesty, the Sovereign Emperor Alexander Pavlovich, Ruler of all the Russias, etc., etc., etc," it gave her leave of absence and free passage from his empire. The minister of the interior, Osip Petrovich Kozodavlev, had given her the obligatory padarojna, or order for post-horses, and sent commands that she should be well treated by all the postmasters on the road "on pain of punishment."3 (Punishment from such a man was not something to contemplate lightly, for he was the tsar's spymaster and prison warden.) There was her French passport, signed in the name of the French ambassador by his secretary, but "au Nom du Roi," the restored Louis XVIII. The Prussian ambassador had given her yet another passport "im Namen seiner Majestät des Konigs von Preussen," which had a comforting ring, since she knew the Prussian king well, had danced with him, and trusted to his protective kindness. Then, too, she had hidden bags of gold and silver, as well as letters of credit to bankers along her way. For she was a fine lady of lofty rank, someone of fur and turquoise rings, someone who knew the tsar, the tsarina, a king or two, and aristocrats beyond number and often beyond remembrance. In crude post stations, in flea-bitten inns, she would be someone who might elicit deference, even fear. She would manipulate this response.
To her surprise, she was a little sorry to leave. For most of her time there, she had disliked the place, with its biting cold winters and humid listless summers, and she disliked the "gaudy loneliness" of being almost the only woman of her kind in the city.4 In Saint Petersburg, she had found few friends and little comfort. On that twelfth of February—as it happened, her fortieth birthday—she entered her carriage with trepidation. All her life, she had lacked confidence and seen the world as a challenge she could not meet. This journey would be a test, or so she came to think.
Being only seven, the boy had as yet little history that anyone cared to record. He was known as a child of quick passions, so wild that his mother could find him difficult to manage. But he was sweet and needy, someone who tried hard. He had lived almost all his short life in Saint Petersburg and there acquired an unstable mix of cultures. He was formed by a German nursemaid, parents who often spoke French, and servants who were Russian. English was only his third language, and he wrote letters in it blunderingly, with a pained sense of inadequacy. The city had made him grow up faster than was usual, for the Russians were uninterested in the innocence of childhood, and treated children like him as small adults. When not yet three, he had attended in fancy dress the palace of the French ambassador and opened a ball by leading out the ambassador's illegitimate daughter (at three and a half, his senior by about six months). Afterward there had been an "elegant supper" with "oceans of Champaign for the little people." For this hothouse growth his mother had been grateful in this last year, for he had discerned that she needed reassurance and had offered her "little tender assiduities; attentions gentle and affectionate" beyond his years.5
Being middle-aged and having hair streaked with gray, the boy's mother had a longer history. In appearance, she was petite and slim, though many years of a grueling social life—balls, dinners, fêtes, conversazioni—had added some weight. She was not sure this was a bad thing. ("At our time of life fat is very becoming.")6 She dressed fashionably, but she had never been a belle. She stopped no conversations when she entered a room, nor did she occasion pitiful stares. She was the middling sort, a girl and then a woman usually thought very pretty with her "heavenly blue-eyes," though her prettiness arose as much from her personality and what she did with words as from her form. She came from a family that had been acutely aware of physical appearance and had good reason to be. Her own mother had been "very lovely," "exquisitely delicate, and very finely proportioned." Her father was "the handsomest man" she ever saw, and this opinion had more basis than daughterly prejudice. Her eldest sister had an easy and graceful deportment, a fair complexion, auburn hair, a dimpled mouth, beautiful teeth, and hazel eyes with an "expression it is impossible to describe, for their brilliant gaiety seemed to call on those she looked on to be as gay and as happy as herself." Among such riches, she had felt herself inadequate, less attractive.7
Her wit had been too sharp to encourage brainless young men in drawing rooms, but people of urbanity thought of her as a peer, though only eventually. When young, she had been as "timid as a hare," had disliked to go into society, and had been a wallflower when forced into assembly rooms.8 Over time, painfully, she had acquired the knack of sociability. But she had a persistent sense that she entered society as an alien, scrutinized with skepticism by those who belonged. This anxiety meant that she made herself a close student of how society worked, of its rules and regulations, those plain and those implied. She was a closer student of those who inhabited society, for studying them helped her survive. She was sharply aware of glances, the placement of a jewel, the lifted eyebrow, the snigger in the corner, the candid smile. She warmed at kindliness, shrank from cynicism, and was offended by hypocrisy. She was not a natural inhabitant of an eighteenth-century or Regency salon, though there was nowhere else for her to live.
She thought of herself as proud and haughty, a trait that went back to her childhood, when she used to stand aside from schoolgirl cliques and so had been mistrusted. In fact, she needed to connect, for she was sentimental, readily amused, and liked parties where there were gossip, smiles, English country dances, and a lingering past midnight. But she preferred a society of those she knew and trusted. She did not need to be the center of attention, but she disliked being ignored, too, and she knew the entitlements of her rank. This delicate balance was not easy to accomplish, especially for those who had to deal with her. Her emotions lay very close to the surface. Anger, happiness, and fear registered on her face and in her movements quickly, and as quickly changed. This led some to think her shallow, even insincere, but it was not so. With her, emotions ran deep, too deep. She was less sure whether her reason ran as deep. Over the years, her greatest proble

Posted November 27, 2010
I have a fascination with western history of the Napoleonic Era, both that of the New World and the Old World. This book blends a little of both, showing us a glimpse of the brief adventure of an American lady and her son as they travel from St. Petersburg to Paris, in the spring of 1814. I thought this book was deeply interesting, as the lady is the wife of then ambassador John Quincy Adams, who later became our 6th president. This book is about her story, not her husband, who appears only peripherally. I liked that she got the spotlight, and not her more famous husband, or her even more famous in-laws. The book provides a look at her personal background and history, showing that despite being an American citizen, she grew up on the European continent, a fact that was no doubt helpful to the Ambassador trying to negotiate his way around the courts of Europe, but was distorted later by her husband's political opponents, who tried to represent her as un-American. (Sound familiar??) Being a book with a feminine subject, a great deal is explained about the practicalities of running an ex-patriot household in early 19th century Russian society, and also of travel in an era before steam trains made spanning a continent relatively quick and affordable. (Her trip cost an astonishing sum by today's values - in the neighborhood of $60,000, although no word on whether the US Government ever reimbursed the ambassador for what was an out-of-pocket expense to transfer his family to his new posting in Paris.) Based partly on a diary she kept, and a personal account that she wrote later in her life, reading between the lines one sees that she wasn't perhaps an intellectual or literary talent; there is very little personal information about her presented in the book, which is probably due to little personal facts in the original material. Despite this, reading about the difficult situations she was able to gracefully surmount, it's clear that she was a useful asset to her husband as he presented our young country on the world stage. This is not a book about great historical events - Napoleon's escape from exile and his subsequent return, putting the entire continent in danger of global war again, is barely mentioned even though Ms. Adams' trip skirted through regions, counties, and municipalities where armies were already gathering just ahead of the battle of Waterloo. It is instead a domestic history, showing how wives coped with households and families while their husbands were involved with larger events. Even so, I found it no less fascinating.

The city bus is free for students, but only comes once an hour and doesn't run on the weekends. Combined with the fact that the cafeteria doesn't open until noon on the weekend, not having a car was a terrible experience.
I have never used any of this type of transportation so I would not know.
There is no public transportation at all. There is one bus that runs during the day but stops at about four in the afternoon. Even if you want a cab you're out of luck unless it's before seven.
the campus is small and the bus is usually good
bus is good but its better to have your own vehicle.

Roasting Pan
Anyone have a favorite roasting pan? How important is it to have a really good pan? Are the cheaper pans only clad on the bottom? Right now I only have glass bakers and need to add something larger/deeper.
Like mrsmarv we use cast Al roasters. For the once-a-year giant turkey we have the huge enamelware rosting pan.
For roasting, I think the thickness and material of the pan has almost nothing to do with the end quality of the recipe.
A V-shaped grill inside the pan really helps for stabilizing and lifting the meat. You can get them separately if not with the pan.
I would consider a large Lodge cast iron fry pan. If you like to convection roast, I find that most roasting pans are too deep for convection roasting.
I have one of those non-stick roasters and hate it. You can't use it for high heat roasting, so it's basically useless except for turkey ... something I haven't cooked in more than a year.
I use a cast iron ridged pan for roasting chickens. It's the perfect size! Cleanup can be a bit of a pain, though.
Cladding is immaterial in a roasting pan since roasting relies on the circulation of warm air in the oven rather than on the pan itself.
Regarding the pan, really any nice sturdy pan with good handles is a good roasting pan.
I love my nonstick Calphalon as I used to hate scrubbing a roasting pan and now all that crud rinses off. I don't make gravy so I don't want to deglaze a pan and use all the burned on fat on the bottom.
My Calphalon is good up to 450 degrees and I don't roast anything at higher temperatures so it's fine for my purposes.
In case anyone is in the market - I just bought what appears to be a pretty nice stainless one with v-rack at Costco for $35. I wanted a new shallow one with a rack so I can try convection roasting my Thanksgiving turkey this year. I've been reading and looking - including a review in latest Fine Cooking magazine with brands ranging from $100 to over $200 I think. Also saw some for around $50 at Linens N Things that didn't seem nearly as good as this one at Costco. Can't wait to give it a try!

Sephora Singapore has opened yet another store, this time at Suntec City.
Sephora Singapore has opened yet another store, this time at Suntec City.
The first fragrance from the brand since they took their beauty operations in-house this year, Burberry Brit Rhythm was created with the young, hot-blooded male in mind.

I know Holiday 2013 is almost upon us but for those of you who haven't seen the autumn offerings from Nars yet (yes, all 3 of you!), here's a quick look at the 12-piece collection.
A layered creation from Francois Demachy, Dior Homme is a powdery woody-floral with a musky overtone.
Earlier last week, my mum-in-law was free to look after my little girl, so I was able to take up an offer of lunch and a beauty treatment from TripleOne Somerset.
This fall, 6 new colours join the existing Shiseido Lacquer Rouge range. As vibrant and lustrous as their predecessors, this sexy sextet sees two unusual shades: a shimmery bronzey-gold and a creamy violet-pink.
This fall, Nars introduces 2 eyeshadow palettes, each containing a limited edition colour and five of the brand's best-selling hues. Here's a quick look at Fairy's Kiss, which I was invariably drawn to, thanks to its array of […]

When a soldier enlists in the military, the first eight weeks are spent in boot camp, training the body for combat. The physical body then becomes an extension of the soldier's arsenal. In much the same way, when Christians discipline themselves through prayer and fasting and reading the Word, their lives become part of God's spiritual armory on earth in which His body can be used to demolish spiritual barriers and set the captives free.
All discipline for the moment seems not to be joyful, but sorrowful; yet to those who have been trained by it, afterwards it yields the peaceful fruit of righteousness. ( Hebres 12:11)

This is a wonderful place, the cabin that they upgraded us to was perfect. You can hike, eat out, eat in, chill, go out, you name it this is the place. Close enough to the DC area that it should be more crowded during the week but grateful it isn't. I can 't wait to return. If there is a bad review it must be from people who are not used to being outside in nature. My friend and I had a wonderful time and I personally wish there were more insects.

Polaroid LCD TV's
Posted by
Last night I tried to turn on my TV and it would not turn on. So I went online to see if I could find a "FIX". What I found was hundreds of people having the same issue's with the same TV Manufacturer. So I have decided to pursue a "Class Action" lawsuit. When I tried to contact them, I got a recorded message that they no longer support the LCD TV's, and referred me to a repair facility. If this were isolated to just me, or me and a few others, I might call it bad luck. BUT THAT'S JUST NOT THE CASE.
I am proposing that we unite and be heard. please contact me via email. I will continue to pursue this issue with a "class action lawfirm" but without your support nothing will happen. We have to stand together!

Class Action Lawsuit? Polaroid LCD
Posted by
Although it makes me feel a little better to know I am not the only one with the Polaroid problem, it seems to me that something should be done about it. I wonder if anyone on this board knows how to start a class action lawsuit. I bought my TV 2 years ago much like many of you and now it is worthless. This was a lot of money to me and I feel like they know it is a problem and just don't care. So if anyone has any suggestions, I'm in.
The beauty of having these sites is maybe we can do something about it.

32" LCD TV was a Dud
Posted by
BOISE, IDAHO -- I purchased this TV in Sept of 2007 and it worked great at first, but 6 months later just completely quit working. I called the company and they sent a repairman out who changed out the board and told me if anything else went wrong to call the company immediately because she's been fixing many of them. Three months later the DVD quit working, but considering I could still get channels and I hooked up my old DVD player everything seemed to be fine. Six months after that I couldn't get any channels so I called the company, they told me too bad it was out of warranty, just 1 1/2 years after buying it.
I took it to an electronics repair place who told me it needed another new board and they advised me not to pay the $400 to have it fixed because most likely it would go out again because there is no cooling mechanism which causes the board to burn out.

Would Not Purchase...
Posted on
JAKCSONVILLE, FLORIDA -- After 16 months the Polaroid TV that we purchased no longer works. This seems to be a common problem. To sum it up I can turn the TV on, but I don't get a picture or sound and once it is on I can not turn it off without unplugging it. After a lengthy conversation with Polaroid there is no option but to pay the $225 to have someone from Polaroid come and repair it. I can not get a local repair place to even look at it. I was told by more than one TV repair professional that Polaroid is what they call a throw away TV. You are just throwing your money away. It is recommended that I not spend the repair money and apply it towards the purchase of a quality flat screen.
Polaroid seems to be well aware of the issues with their TV's, but sticks firmly to their warranty. Very disappointing.

Polaroid LCD Faulty, They Know It, Won't Back Product
Posted by
I purchased my TV 20 months ago, I went to turn it on nothing. I contacted Polaroid, they knew exactly what was wrong. Apparently it is a problem with this TV model. they did not bother to recall what they knew was a faulty part but waited to see how many would make it past their 1 year measly warranty before it going. I am a single mother of 3 this was a big purchase for us, nor can I afford another one.
Thanks to Polaroid my three kids have no TV because they can't stand behind their product they knew was faulty.

Don't Buy Polaroid
Posted by
JOHNSTOWN, PENNSYLVANIA -- We purchased a 15.4" Polaroid LCD TV in October 2007. We were happy to have a smaller screen in the area where we spend much time. Unhappily, the screen lost its picture in January 2009. I wrote the company and asked them if it was their policy to make a product that lasts less than 15 months. I received a response from a technician which was not acceptable so I asked for a supervisor. To the only credit I can give, I will say that the emails were quick but they said that they could repair it for $99+shipping. I figured that would total between &150-$200. I paid $260.
I decided it would be best to spend that much getting another (non-Polaroid) TV and declined the offer.

TOLEDO, OHIO -- We are in the same situation as a lot of people with this TV.
On April 2007 we purchased a 37" TV at Circuit City, just one day before the year warranty our TV stopped working, no picture but sound, also we could not turn the TV on or off we had to unplug it, after calling to customer service they were going to send the "brain" to us and call this 1-800 number and set up a service appointment, this should only of taken like 3-5 days, after the 5th day I phoned in again of course they could not find were the part was sent, so another 3-5 days. So the part arrives which is a refurbished part, and replaced in May 2008. The current situation is we have the same problem 6 months later, I called customer service who took my information and said sorry its out of warranty and wanted some crazy price to get a refurbished part, I explained to them that I don't have $250 every 6 months to put money into this TV.
Needless to say after 1 1/2 years we are out of luck after paying $1000.00 Word of advice DON"T BUY POLAROID".

Customer Service/Warranty Service
Posted by
In December 2006 we bought a 20" LCD Polaroid Television. In June the TV became defective. I had a lime green screen with lines and snow. I called the warrranty service number and was told I would be contacted to set up a repair. It is now a month later and I have talked to 3 more people and been promised a call from the repair service 3 different times with 3 different time frames for the call, the last being 24-48 hours. When no call came I talked to a supervisor who finally admitted to me that he does not even work for Polaroid. He is employed by Accent Co. Who handle all the customer service calls for Polaroid. He told me that there is now a problem with parts for my TV and that my report is in the queue to be handled but he does not know when!!!! I asked him what he would do and said I was ready to contact Polaroid execs. He said that is what he would do. My advice don't buy Polaroid unless you get it somewhere with an extended warranty like Best Buy.
We got ours at Wal-mart, enough said about that.

No Warranty Service
Posted on
DEVON, PENNSYLVANIA -- I Bought a Polaroid LCD TV Model FLM-323B on July 5, 2006. Mailed in the registration card when purchased. It totally died 4 months later. The machine has a date of manufacture of April 2006 right on it. First I had to go BUY fuses and install them before they would even talk to me. Now because my receipt is faded (on thermal paper and not stored in controlled conditions)They will not honor the warranty. 900+ dollars for 4 mos of service is really poor. Other websites show the same problem with Polaroids quality and warranty service. Beware. Unless you have money to throw out, the product won't last a year and no one will fix it for you under the warranty. I even offered to allow them to back the warranty up to April 2006 which would shorten my warranty period but get my TV fixed. No deal. They rely on thermal paper receipts fading. The rep at the warranty company said they had receipt issues all the time and I should try to get the store to give me a "new" receipt. I asked why I would bother to send in the registration if they wouldn't honor the warranty and he said the registration is a product registration not a warranty registration. STAY AWAY FROM POLAROID ELECTRONICS!!!!

Keep away from Polaroid
Posted on
My TV broke as soon as the year was up. Cost more to fix than replacing it. Last time I buy a Polaroid TV from Wal-mart. Going to Costco where they warranty their TV for two years.

Questions about waking up a dormant fig tree
Like most of you, I've been itching to get the fig season started.
There's a need to feed the addiction.
My questions;
Can I bring into the house now a dormant fig in a somewhat frozen pot and wake it up?
Or should I wait and let nature take its' course so that the plant will acclimate to the changing environment?
What would you do?
I try to make it brief not to bore anyone here.
I know your climate Rafed its best to wait and just get a jump start in early spring with the containers by bringing in and out of garage at the right time.
you feel that they will die cause there not in proper storage.
Otherwise by bringing any in much warmer house you will have to wait till outdoor temps are real nice to accimilate back outdoors when time comes otherwise you will set them back.
Been there done that.
Just my opinion and nothing else. ; )
I do have some waking up in house for different reasons not related to this thread.

Agreed - keeping your potted trees cold as long as you can will leave you with a tree that has more leaves and branches and better growth (increase in mass) in the upcoming growth period. I wish I could keep my trees colder longer, but they always leaf out well ahead of our 'last expected frost' date, so I wind up moving them in and out of the garage as temperatures allow. Trees in the process of leafing out need strong light or they weaken quickly, not to mention the fact that reduced light makes the branches weak and gangly, and internodes longer than we prefer.
