Coin Deep Back Clip
From MagicPedia, the free online encyclopedia for magicians by magicians.
Deep BackClip, a Coin Concealments, is the creation of Dai Vernon. It has been used most extensively by David Roth and was published in Chapter 6 of David Roth's Expert Coin Magic (Kaufman, 1985).
Dai Vernon taught it to Larry Jennings and very few of Vernon's own techniques and applications for Deep BackClip have been published. The first appeared in The Gen, Vol. 20, no. 5, September 1964, which was later reprinted in The Art of Close-up, Vol. 1 (Ganson, 1967) as "A New Coin Change".[1]

Greetings from the beach
Hi all, Okay, no postings on here today--guess that means everyone is busy painting, right? This computer connection is much slower than the one at home so won't stay on long. We visited with friends, did some shopping, and went to a movie today. Time to get comfy and read one of the painting mags I brought along. Miss you guys. I'll have some pics to post when I get back home. Talk to you soon. Luvs
Luvs~ Sounds like you are having a relaxing time. Enjoy and wiggle your tosies in the sand for me! Are there any shells or sea glass on the beach where you are? My favorite thing to do at the beaches in FL is to look for unbroken Angel Wings (Inside Sand Dollars), shark teeth and sea glass. My most unfavorite thing to do at the beach is get stung by jellyfish! I wouldn't recommend it. No, not fun at all! ha
I've not been here much because my DMom hurt her shoulder and has it in a sling. I've been having to take care of her & running her to dr appts while my DDad is out of town. I have to take her to get an MRI done today.
On a happier note I did start painting the Witch Gourd so maybe I'll get it finished sometime this week. ~Anj
Luvs,hope you're enjoying the beach.I live less than 5 miutes from the beach and pier and never go.I used to when my kids were small,or when my folks cme out from the east coast.But now to go there just to be going,nah,not my thing.The most i like to do there is walk along it at suset.
Anj,sorry to hear about your mom,hope she's feeling better soon.
As for me ,i havn't picked up a paint brush.I have some sewing and cross stitch projects i must get done as they are for exchanges on other boards,and we're still working on our yard also.
So take care guys,enjoy your days doing whatever it is.
Hi! We went to the Doggie Beach at Huntington Beach, Ca today. Our golden retriever really likes to go there because he can run around off leash and go into the water. Anj, I didn't find any sea glass, but did pick up several small shells. For some reason, we don't find as many or as pretty shells here as we did from the Atlantic when we visited Myrtle Beach--it was so fun to collect them there. Couldn't ask for prettier weather and no crowds since school has started and it's not a weekend. Just the way we like it. Kennebunker, I waded out into the ocean and it felt pretty cold to me--but probably much warmer than where you are! Yes, Kathi, you are really close to the ocean. I could just sit and watch the waves for hours--it is so relaxing. Most people who live close don't go--it's us landlocked ones that enjoy it! Ha ha We are heading back home either tonight or tomorrow morning then I will get busy on my projects. Anj, so sorry about your Mom's shoulder. Glad you are close by and able to help her. Take care all--will chat more later.

Are some salvias more tolerant of soggy winters?
I have no trouble finding dry soil in the summertime but our winters can be a little snowy/rainy. It's different every year of course but we rarely have a long-lasting snow cover because the really cold temps don't stay around for more than a couple days usually.
I'm in zone six but our summers are hot and dry so I love growing salvias. I'm still unsure whether cold or moisture is my biggest enemy in the winter. Maybe it's a combination of both.
I'm mostly interested in salvias that Ruby Throat hummingbirds find attractive. I've been growing salvia guaranitica for several years so I want to try Van Remsen. Any other suggestions? I don't mind the risk if it's iffy in my zone. That's part of the fun. : )
Salvia Darcyi has been doing well for me so far and I've had mixed luck with greggi cultivars. I'll know in just a few weeks who survived this winter.
Can you build raised beds with either sandy loam or sand? These work pretty well in North Carolina with our red clay soils. The beds should be around 10 to 16 inches high. French drains (small ditches filled with very coarse gravel) are also good for carrying excess moisture away.
Van Remsen does not form many tubers and has no stolons (runners). I'd mulch this one in zone 6 with around 6 inches of hardwood bark mulch for the coldest parts of winter.
Salvia elegans is my most popular plant with our ruby-throated hummingbirds, but I'm not sure how it will do in the cold, as it is a Fall bloomer. I've had many, many drainage problems with other sages, but it's never been an issue with the S. elegans. The same could be said for my S. leucantha, which the hummers like too.
Rich - I wanted to build a raised bed but couldn't decide where, then lost a silver maple in our ice storm last year so now my backyard is much sunnier and I've been studying that spot for a hummingbird garden. The salvias I have so far are interspersed along the outside edges of a mixed shrub row I planted a few years ago. I didn't do much amending when I planted them. If I have some luck growing salvias from seed this year and if last years plants return, I might have enough to start that new bed. I had divided my salvia guaranitica a few times and was planning on having lots of that to use but only had one little clump left after our horrible winter and late hard freeze in the spring last year. : (
I try to use plants that naturally do well in our poor soil rather than amend for picky plants. For the most part, salvias do GREAT here without a lot of care. That's one of the reasons why I like them. The ones I grow that are hardier like May Night are tough as nails in my unamended soil but I can't resist the ones that say zone 7 on the description. : )
Dicot - I should give salvia elegans another try. I only grew it once and while it was impressive how huge it got over the summer, I nearly went insane waiting for it to bloom. My hummingbirds were packing their bags when the flowers finally started opening. It sure was pretty though.

New to Climbing?
Never climbed before but want to give it a go? Climbed a couple of times, or a few years ago, and want to get back into climbing? Then we have a session that is right for you.
Climbing is one of the fastest growing sports in the UK. It is a fantastic way to exercise, and all in a great social setting to enjoy with friends.
Its the holy grail of exercise – a mix of resistance training and aerobic workout, with serious carb burn and great for developing flexibility and agility. Research shows a full on climbing session burns 600 – 1,000 calories per hour! The NHS also publicised a great article extolling the benefits of climbing in Sept 2014. So forget lifting weights or pounding the running machine, come on down to White Spider and enjoy your fitness!
We offer a full spectrum of sessions – including Autobelays, taster sessions, beginners courses, private lessons, term time and holiday kids clubs, social climbing. Plus for more experienced climbers, improvers courses, private lessons, our competition squad.
Taster sessions for adults and children, for adults they run both at the weekends or weekday evenings and at the weekends for children. Taster sessions are an opportunity to try climbing out in a relaxed and comfortable environment, ideal for those who have never tried this fun and versatile sport.
Alternatively we offer Private Lessons. We can be flexible with dates and times as the session is your own, so let us know what you would like to get out of your session. With private lessons we can book a maximum of 3 people per instructor and we can mix the ages, so if both father and son want a go, it's not a problem!
Our Adult Beginners Course is a comprehensive program we run either during weekday evenings or over the weekend. During the course you will learn knot-tying and belay techniques as well as familiarising yourself with climbing equipment, centre rules and safety. The beginner's course will give you the skills you need to climb unsupervised at our centre.
Our Adult Boulder Beginners is a short course, giving you the know-how to be safe on our bouldering areas without supervision.
We offer Refresher Sessions – so you used to climb years ago and you're a little rusty on some of the essential techniques you need to be safe while climbing. We suggest you either take part in our Beginner's course or take a string of private lessons to get you back up to scratch. Please note there needs to be at least two participants.
For kids – please check out our youth pages for our popular term time and holiday kids clubs.
More and detailed information below!
It's important you read through the 'Planning your visit' pages before attending White Spider. We've put all our frequently asked questions on this page to help you too!
"I completed the 6 hour Beginners Course. It was fantastic – everything I need to know with a fabulous instructor, who pitched the sessions at perfect level, good fun and a lovely guy!"
"Excellent! Really good, friendly and systematic instruction. Learnt loads – I'm hooked!!"
Can I come and have a go?
Yes! There are a number of ways to get into climbing.
Autobelays are a great way to start. We have 4 auto-belays here at the centre, covering easy grades through to advanced. They are a great system that works without the use of a belayer or instructor. We'll simply show you how to use them safely and you're free to give them a go on our climbing wall.
– Priced at £5 for every 15 minutes for both adults and children.
Once you've given the auto belays a go book a session with one of our skilled instructors to develop your overall climbing skills.
Want to check out the centre before booking a session?
Please come down and have a look, one of our friendly staff members will show you around. However please be aware that all instructed sessions at White Spider must be pre-booked as our sessions are popular, and do tend to get booked up in advance.

Check out our prices for all sessions.
My friend is an experienced climber, can I visit White Spider with them?
Absolutely! They are allowed to supervise a maximum of 2 people. If they are the only experienced climber, they won't be allowed to use our ropes but they can belay for you. We are more than happy for you to boulder together.
You will need to sign up with our online waiver registration (or use our ipads when you are here), pay the standard entry fees and sign on the Supervision register for the day with your friend.
How do I get my kids involved?
We've got loads for kids to get involved with at White Spider, check out the 'Youth' pages here for more options.
I used to climb a few years ago, how can I get back into it?
We'd suggest you book a private lesson with one of our instructors to refresh your memory on all things climbing.
If you've had a really long gap, they may suggest you do a beginners course to fully remind yourself and make you the best climber you can be.
Failing that, we'd suggest you come down with some experienced climbers and ask them to supervise you the first few times. Once you feel confident you can climb independently, you can ask to go through the registration process and get signed off yourself.
I'm a disabled ambulant climber, what facilities does White Spider have?
We have an accessible disabled toilet on the ground floor. We also have instructors who are specifically trained to support disabled ambulant users. We are committed to being as inclusive as we can be, so please do contact us if you'd like to book or have any questions.

Haunted houses a scream for Halloween
If you think Halloween is closer than you think, you're dead-on.
In fact, several groups are scaring up a few haunts that spook-seekers would kill to check out.
In case you are one of those scare-seekers, here are a few ideas to raise your spirits. And the good thing is, many of these particular haunts benefit nonprofit organizations.
Creatures of Call Field
The Sunrise Optimist Club takes advantage of the time around sunset, and a few hours afterward, to assure that your evening is a scream.
The group's annual haunted house, which is in its ninth year, returns once again in its Creatures of Call Field form — the third year it has been dubbed the ever-popular Creatures of Call Field because, well, the haunted house is on Call Field Road — 3831 Call Field, in fact (that's the old Tener's Building in Faith Village Shopping Center).
It opens at 7:30 tonight.
The endless hallway where creatures are a surprise behind every wall — walls that move, by the way.
Long, dark mazes, where a creature or two will lurk and where the walls and floors just may move.
Chain saws (of course).
Nightly visitors from the home of the criminally insane.
And "Old Sparky" (We're not sure what it is exactly, but it sounds like a lot of fun).
Bill Franklin, program director of the Sunrise Optimist Club, said the club doesn't use 3D glasses, which is the latest fad in haunted houses.
"But we do have a really unique clown room," he said, that will mess a bit with your vision. "We also have hallways that move."
One of the new features this year is a spoof of the movie "Quarantine" — particularly the scene in which a news reporter is crawling around in the dark and is dragged back along the floor by something in the dark.
The Sunrise Optimists partner with high school booster clubs to raise money for youth organizations in the community, like the Rider High School Spanish Club, Wichita Falls High School Soccer Club, and the Petrolia High School softball and senior class.
The Sunrise Optimists will benefit as well, using its portion of the proceeds to fund youth activities, including scholarships, essay contests, a Halloween party for children at the state hospital, a 1,200-member girl's softball program and more.
"It takes about 600 man hours" to put the haunted house together, said Franklin, "And there will be over 300 people working over the period that the haunted house is open."
THE CREATURES OF CALL FIELD HAUNTED HOUSE, 7:30 p.m. to midnight today and Saturday, 7:30 p.m. to midnight Oct. 24-25, 7:30 p.m. to 10 p.m. Oct. 28-30 and 7:30 p.m. to midnight Oct. 31. $5 per person.
The Chamber of Horrors
Thirty years of screaming?
Well, it's not 30 years of constant screaming, but around Halloween, the Central Boys & Girls Club basement is mysteriously transformed into — tun, tun, TUN! — the bloodcurdling Chamber of Horrors.
The Chamber is celebrating its 30th anniversary this year, making it the longest-running haunted house in Wichita Falls.
"I don't think people understand the longevity and the community involvement," said Chris Vomastek, Chamber Committee chair, who said that some volunteers have been involved in the haunted house since they were youth.
The Chamber opens Oct. 24 and will be open Oct. 25 and Oct. 29-31, as well.
This year, followers of fright can expect several new attractions, like including a big-screen movie projector set up to show movies so people standing in line will be entertained before they even get into the house.
A Doctor's Room has been expanded and is now the Extreme Surgery Room, with a saw suspended from the ceiling. One room includes a suspended floor so that it changes directions.
Vomastek said, "And we keep up with current movies, so there's the Poltergeist Room (inspired by the film 'Poltergeist') and the Saw Room (inspired by the 'Saw' films)," along with a hospital room, too.
"We call it our midnight triple feature," said Vomastek.
The maze at the end has been changed a little, too.
Again this year, the Chamber's haunted house is a 3D-friendly affair. Glasses will be sold for $1 to enhance the whole horrifying experience.
Helping to turn the Chamber into one chilling place to be will be volunteer scare-meisters from Midwestern State University and Sheppard Air Force Base. Of course, Vomastek said if you want to volunteer, just call the Boys & Girls Club.
This longtime nonprofit haunted house, which is presented annually by the club's Alumni Association, benefits the Boys & Girls Clubs of Wichita Falls.
CHAMBER OF HORRORS HAUNTED HOUSE, 7:30 p.m. to 11 p.m. Oct. 24-25 and Oct. 29-31, basement of the Central Boys & Girls Club, Sixth and Broad. $5 at the door and $4 in advance. Tickets are $2 for Boys & Girls Club members. For information, call (940) 322-2012.
House of Carnage
Hay rides and hamburgers are a few of our favorite things.
But a haunted hay ride and hamburgers? Well now, that brings on a whole new meaning.
Yes, it's time once again for the Randlett Volunteer Fire Department's House of Carnage, this year dubbed the House of Carnage II: The Second Story. The haunted house has been open for a couple of weeks already.
It's a 6-mile ride out to the two-story haunted farmhouse somewhere out there in the country in Randlett, Okla. (We're told to take Interstate 44 to Exit 5 in Oklahoma, drive 2 1/2 miles east and follow the signs).
Then the hayride ends and stops in front of a two-story haunted house, where plenty of frights will be awaiting those who dare enter.
"Last year, more than 2,000 showed up," said Bill Baird, the Randlett Volunteer Fire Department's secretary-treasurer. "This is our major fundraiser. Everything we make goes into the department for operating expenses."
About 60 volunteers, from firefighters to firefighters' spouses and children in the community volunteer to make the haunted house happen.
Just a note: It's $10 to take the hay ride and go through the haunted house, and that includes a hamburger.
By the way, the fire department doesn't allow any rough stuff or alcohol, Baird said.
HOUSE OF CARNAGE II: THE SECOND STORY, 7 p.m. today and Saturday, as well as 7 p.m. Oct. 24-24 and then Oct. 30-31, Randlett, Okla. Take I-44 to Exit 5 in Oklahoma. Drive 2 1/2 miles east and follow the signs. For information or to book groups, call (580) 281-3833.
Crime Stoppers Haunted House
Crime Stoppers will once again be upping the creep factor this Halloween season with its annual Crime Stoppers Haunted House.
The house this year is at 916 Scott St., downtown (the old McClurkan's Building at the corner of Scott and Tenth streets).
Like the Sunrise Optimist Club, it opens tonight and will be open, too, on Oct. 18 and Oct. 24-31. Hours will be from 7 p.m. to midnight on Fridays and Saturdays and from 7 p.m. to 10 p.m. on all other days.

Everybody Chill: People Around Ferguson Are Still Buying Lots of Guns
It may be the most reliable story in the aftermath of a shooting, or a police action. People get spooked. People buy guns. St. Louis' KMOX reports on the gun sales in Bridgeton, a Missouri suburb about 7 miles from Ferguson.
Sales have quadrupled at 'Metro Shooting' in Bridgeton according to owner Steven King. He says sales have mainly been to men, but not all:
"Probably a dozen or two dozen guns to females, single mothers. We've sold to black people, white people. We've sold to asians who have businesses on West Florissant." said King. "They're just afraid of what's going on and they're coming in to purchase either additional firearms or their first firearm."
How reliable is this trend? Frank Miniter, author of The Future of the Gun, pointed me to Florida data on background checks. In February 2012, Trayvon Martin was killed in Sanford. The results are highlighted.
Looking at that chart, you'll also see surges in background checks in November 2012 (the re-election of Barack Obama) and the winter of 2012/2013 (the Newtown shooting and subsequent discussion of the first possible gun safety bill in 20 years).
Patty Murray Should Be the Next Senate Minority Leader The Washington senator is a better choice than Elizabeth Warren or Chuck Schumer.

Time is meaningless
After I took this photo I go and asked her what was she thinking? first she got angry that I took photo without letting her know, but as soon as she calmed down, my question replied as `in the camp time is meaningless for us, it not important what time it is or whats the date today, we are lost in time, I hope war ends sooner`. photo taken at Quashtapa Camp.
Kobane is in safe hands
since the biggest battle ends in Kobane, the city is still dangerous with lots of Bubi traps,alive mortar shells and grande traps etc.. same as YPG and YPJ forces, guerrilla is controlling the city roads too. A guerrilla carrying tea pot to his observation point. photo taken at Azadi Sq. high road.
A diplomat's perspective from Gareth Bayley
As UK Special Representative for Syria, I lead a team in the region dedicated to helping achieve a negotiated political transition in Syria - the only way to end the conflict and relieve Syria's humanitarian crisis. The job demands energy, relentless enthusiasm and patience to push through adversity. Four years after Syria's popular uprising began, this has never been more true. What gives me hope? Meeting inspiring Syrians from all walks of life, passionately committed to a better future for their country, particularly Syrians doing what they can on the ground, and the impressive women and men I meet through the UK's Chevening Scholarship programme. This is the most worthwhile job I could ever imagine doing.
I can't do more for her except to tell her story...
I work as the Director of Communications for Mercy-USA for Aid and Development, (mercyusa.org), a United States-based charity incorporated in 1988.
We have been working in Syria since late 2012 by providing aid and healthcare to the very needy there. Our field team and volunteers are native to Aleppo and have chosen to stay in country while most of their families have fled for the safety of Turkey. Only God knows the extent of bravery this handful of people have in order to stay in Aleppo—I can't imagine it.
Our beneficiaries are widowed mothers with multiple children, or families caring for a disabled adult child, and others who simply had no means to flee the constant barrage of barrel bombs and air strikes that have all but decimated the once beautiful city of Aleppo.
It's my job to tell their stories from my safe office here in the U.S. I communicate with our field team via WhatsApp, Skype and emails about the folks we help. Some days it all feels abstract until I load a batch of photos from Aleppo on to my computer; then I see the faces of those we're helping. I look into their eyes and their stories of horror stare back at me. I just received several shots of this mother, carrying a baby with several more children tagging along with her. They all have the same beautiful eyes that tell me they're living through a winter hell without heat, electricity or running water. Her hands are black from soot, her baby's clothes are black with soot, and her two older boys are worse.
In all these photos she's smiling and so are her boys. I wonder, "Who could smile in the face of such hardship?" And her answer to me shines through her face; she's light-hearted this day because she received a month's food supply at Mercy-USA's distribution point. That's one burden off her mother's soul, knowing her children won't starve this month. Her eyes also tell me that her smile will only last until she hears the next helicopter carrying TNT and shrapnel overhead.
I imagine her prayer: "Oh God, if we are hit, let us all die together without pain or suffering."
I look into her eyes and I cry. I can't be there to help her. I can't make it safe for her and her children. I can't do anything except tell you her story.

I am not from Syria, I am Syrian
In 2012 I did a year abroad in Turkey, studying at the Middle Eastern Technical University. There I met a dear friend, who too had come to Turkey to study. However, his circumstance was very different to mine. He was from Aleppo, and was a Kurdish Syrian. By the time I met him, he had already stopped studying as his anxiety and depression had gripped hold of him. We formed an extremely close friendship. The guilt, horror and extreme anger over the events in his country was always with him. Sometimes, he would be unresponsive for days, overwhelmed with such anguish. Later, he would admit that some days it was just easier to stay in bed rather than face the world. It was just one case, I can't imagine the anguish found in the extreme numbers that the situation in Syria creates.
His mother, when she could, would phone him on a terrible line and beg him to arrange a university place for his younger sisters, so they could flee. This was obviously out of this control. His father, telling him he must return in order to protect his siblings and mother. He would constantly talk of his childhood in Aleppo, his religious schooling and the infamous markets. He was talking of a place that no longer existed, seemingly trying to reconstruct the image in his head, relaying the information so that it would remain.
Whenever tragedy happens in the world, I believe it is human nature to try and divorce ourselves from such terrible suffering, which the anonymous figures which reflect the tragedy allows us to do to some extent. However, whatever figure the UN releases, the deceased, the IDP's, those struggling from starvation and disease it is essential to remember they all represent a person, with a family, hopes, dreams and a life. As my friend would always say to me: "I am not from Syria, I am Syrian....and what ever is happening to my country effects me on a parallel level."
Young Kurdish refugee from Kobane shows chest tattoo
I visited one of the most crowded refugee camps in Suruc, Turkey, only a few kilometres from the Syrian border. Besides some older people who had traditional hand and face tattoos, some of the young men also showed their improvised tattoos. I didn't have a proper translator with me so I couldn't talk much with this young man, but from what I gathered the tattoo is supposed to represent his love for a girl.
Kurdish refugee with traditional Kurdish hand tattoos
I visited the refugee camp in Suruc, Turkey not far from Kobane. The people who fled Kobane after the Islamic State mostly ended up in this town. This 77-year old man bears the traditional tattoos that have gone out of fashion in the recent generations. Perhaps they bore some kind of special meaning one day, but in his days they only applied them for aesthetic purposes.

Beef and Onion Crostini
Hi...I'm new on this board and have a few questions about a recipe.
My hubby and I love to entertain, and we do so very frequently. We've always been told that we do top-notch, elegant dinners. We are planning a wine tasting/pairing party in June and I've been planning the menu for weeks now. I'd like to serve a beef and onion crostini along with our Cabernet pairing, but don't want to have to cook the beef myself (hubby is vegetarian and it's been years since I've made any red meat). Is it possible to purchase rare cooked roast beef from the deli and use that? Would I need to reheat it, or could this be served room temp?
We're planning on having 6 stations as well as a dessert/port station to end the affair. Thanks for any help you can offer.

Butta Verses - If I Die ft. Lucian
Artist: Butta Verses
Producer: Might V.I.C.
Album: Reality BV
Avg Rating: 3.3 ( 22 votes )
It would be hard to call an emcee with as much experience as Butta Verses a newcomer to the game. Despite being featured on SNL, working with De La Soul and performing alongside the Wu Tang Clan, however, his identity is still on the come up. So, let's settle for the title, tireless underground veteran. On If I Die, the Fort Lauderdale resident (via The Bronx) asks for forgiveness for any wrongdoings and wants to express these feelings before he is an under-the-ground artist. Producer Mighty V.I.C. (not the Get Silly cat) provides a piano-laden production with soul stirring sample from the late Marvin Gaye. Butta Verses is set to release his first official studio album, Reality BV, this September.

From the mountains to the waters of Venice
... Never in my life have I ever seen such a empty motorway. Unlike most motorways in the world which are straight and boring these ones in Italy are quite twisty and just great for biking.
As I head onward south the mist and clouds are building and soon it starts to rain and I am tempted to stop and put on my rain gear. However the road heads into one of the mighty long tunnels and by the time I exit the tunnel its bright and sunny once again.
Finally i approach ...
Islands in the Stream
... We'd booked an Island excursion and we had about 35 minutes to drink our wine before we needed to head off. Bec staggered inside the bar to find some food to soak up the wine while Ken latched on to 2 American school teachers. The next 20 minutes were full of much laughter and silliness but eventually we had to leave. Not even the obscene bill sobered us up. Bwoody !
Our tour 1st took us out to the island of Murano, which is famous for it's glass making. ...
Our Last Drive.. Florence to Venice
... sentence came a conversation for those who love language…is it open sky or open skies? Is there actually more then one sky and if so … where are those borders? I know there is an answer... I will have to google that and see!)
Since we already have a superior high speed driver to hand we felt okay about the decision to not go to Ferrari this time. Why go 200 mph on the ground avoiding death when you can go 220 mph ...
Venice in the Sun
The sun brings out the sparkle and even more tourists- even on a Sunday morning! They shed their umbrellas and ponchos, and girls and women don their short-shorts and leopard-print adornments. Pensione Guerrato provides an adequate continental breakfast -- cereal, yogurt, croissants, juice, and, of course, coffee and tea -- so we jumped into the tourist throng as soon as we'd refueled ourselves and headed for St. Mark's ...
A T-shirt merchant of Venice.
... a one person affair because there isn't room for more than the owner and one customer. I'd hate to be a removalist here. An upshot is that all of the locals here are reasonably fit. No surprise when walking is the main transport option and freight is by hand cart. Sure they ferry it as close as they can first, but there is still a major bit of manual handling for most people.

Frigidaire FPES3085PF Professional 30" Stainless Steel Electric Slide-In Smoothtop Range - Convection (View all from Frigidaire)
over 800 reviews
We are thrilled
"I never thought that I'd buy an appliance from a dealer 900 mikes away, but it looks like I am in good company! I first saw your store in person, since my son and his family live only two mikes away from your store. And then I found you online when I was trying to compare brands and features of a high-end under counter ice maker. We are thrilled. And your salesperson helped me compare various features to get just the right one. It arrived in perfect condition. We are delighted and will definitely be shopping for other appliances as needed, especially since we saved almost 20%!! Great concept and good people to do business with. Thanks!"
Excellent buying experience
"I really liked my experience with your company. 1. Your price was very competitive with other companies locally and on line. 2. Free shipping to my front door. 3. Ability to track my order from the time I placed the order to delivery. 4. Excellent customer service even during the New Year holiday. Called back with updated delivery. 5. Excellent buying experience."
Frigidaire Professional FPES3085PF 30" slide-in smoothtop rangeis a real showstopper. It gives you faster heating through PowerPlus functions and loads of cooking options through SpaceWise features, all covered with a smudge-proof stainless steel sheen.
On the Cooktop
- As with many cooktops and ranges, this one has
5 heating elements, but they are anything but ordinary. For instance, the
SpaceWise expandable elementhas three heat zones that can be activated to accommodate pans of different sizes. Choose from 6", 9", and 12".
- Another nifty feature is the
SpaceWise bridge element. It lets you combine the two left burners to create an oval of heat for odd cookware of all sorts.
- Need noodles fast? Turn to the
PowerPlus boilto get that water bubbling quicker!
- The center element in the back is actually a
keep warm burnerfor when dishes have to be kept on standby until all of your guests arrive.
Hot surface indicator lightscome on when an element has warmed up and should not be touched.
- The smooth black glass cooktop is beautiful, but don't worry about it being hard to maintain. Reviewers say the cooking surface is easy to clean off.
In the Oven
- The oven cavity measures
4.6 cu. ft.With this massive capacity, wondering if what you're cooking is going to fit will be a thing of the past!
- You have your choice of how you use this space with 3 oven racks and 5 rack positions. Frigidaire has even included their unique
SpaceWise half rackfor packing in more dishes at once.
PowerPlus preheatgets hot air flowing into your oven faster so you won't have to wait more than a few minutes to start cooking.
- For a better baking experience, you can always count on the
PowerPlus convection mode. It switches on a dual fan system to evenly disperse heat for browning on every edge. Though convection may seem complex, it isn't hard to learn; first time users will get accustomed to it in no time.
- Keeping your oven clean will be the least of your worries. Select
PowerPlus self-cleanfor baked on foods, or go with the
steam clean optionfor ordinary little messes. If you really want to scrub your oven yourself, the
true hidden bake systemmakes it so there are no coils to wipe around.
- Before you take that turkey out of the oven, check that its internal temperature is what it should be with the
oven meat probe.
- The
1.6 cu. ft. warming drawerbeneath the oven can be a total lifesaver when you need to keep one dish warm while the rest of your food is still cooking.
Other Features
- The
One-Touch optionson the control panel include a
My Favorite buttonso you can program in your most used settings and select them instantly.
- This Frigidaire range was
proudly made in America. Support your country with appliances that were designed, engineered, and assembled in the United States.
The sleek and gorgeous Frigidaire FPES3085PF is available right here at Goedeker's. With incredible discounts, free shipping, and attentive customer service, your satisfaction is guaranteed.
