A couple of weeks ago, Lee pitched an idea for bringing several of us at UVenus together around a single question and Meg and I thought it would be a great way to end 2010 as we take a break for the holidays in the USA. We'd like to make this a monthly feature at University of Venus and we want our readers to participate! If you tweet your answer, one of us will post it on the blog for you.

My 200-level students last semester proposed or redesigned a university-level course for their final assignment.* They were allowed to make it in any subject, at any level. It wasn't my most tightly conceived assignment, so I wasn't sure what to expect from them. The results were understandably uneven, but revealed a great deal about what undergraduates think an undergraduate degree should be.

I've had some great work
December 16, 2010 - 9:00pm
This past month I completed my second Master's course – a Research Methods class which took us through the paces of literature reviews, conference proposals, peer reviews, paper drafts and concluded with a small class symposium where we each presented our work. I confess, it sounded dry to me when I registered. I was almost dreading it as it all seemed to be so much of what I was already advising my students on. However, I was determined to be positive, so I chose to use it as an exercise to improve my writing. And of course, it was wonderful.

My sister recently visited a physician in Manila who turned out to be a former undergraduate student of mine in Iloilo. Recognizing the common surname (Arcala), the doctor gushed about how I had tempted her to switch from a Biology major to a Political Science major, upon taking my General Education class in Social, Economic and Political Theory. To this day she remembers Plato, Aristotle, Rousseau and Marx and the engaging manner in which I embedded their ideas in their historical milieus.

The topic of this blog post comes naturally to me, as I sit surrounded by over 40 essays waiting for me to grade. 40 essays, each 8 pages long – you count how much text I must get through, and fast (as my deadline for delivering the final marks is approaching very soon). The immensity of the task makes me wonder what the purpose of this exercise is and which ways there are to best achieve this goal. And so, I find myself writing about grading.
December 7, 2010 - 9:15pm
Every morning I wake up, get dressed, put on my make-up, drink a glass of cold milk with no sugar and then I walk to the University. It takes me about 10 minutes. Living in a huge metropolis like Istanbul where most people have to commute for at least an hour or more and change a few public transportation vehicles to get to work, I must say I am blessed by my morning exercise of walking to my office, which is kind of like a second home to me.
December 5, 2010 - 6:45pm
For several years during my early 20's, I kept a journal that I called the "Read Me Journal." There are three volumes, all written in floral hardbound notebooks, with the words "Read Me" scrawled across the front in black nail polish. They are all fat and include various newspaper and magazine clippings, drawings and a few dashes of perfume to supplement the handwritten account of my life. Each has a detailed table of contents, written in A.A. Milne style, beginning with the words "In which…" They also include handwritten comments from my friends on whatever I had written.
December 2, 2010 - 9:31pm
The benighted "MRS" degree bore a particular meaning for my mother's generation. Young women went off to college with minimal interest in their major and maximum interest in securing a mate. Their graduation took a distant second to their wedding as evidence that they had successfully concluded their college experience. Think of Elizabeth Taylor in Father of the Bride.

Explore the personal stories of Syrian refugees in Lebanon
Everyday lives in conflict-ridden Aleppo
15 Feb 2009 14:09 GMT | Politics, Israel
Barak's biggest selling point is his military experience. The Gaza war came at a good time for him, boosting his popularity among Israelis just before the election.
The Labor party wants to appear both moderate and tough. In his campaign ad, Barak says he will never stop striving for peace – but he will never hesitate to strike with military force when it is necessary.
The main problem facing the Labor party, however, is that Israelis have lost faith in the peace process.
The Labor party needs to offer new ideas and prove to the electorate that a vote for them is not a wasted vote.
David Horowitz, the editor-in-chief of the Jerusalem Post, said: "I do not think anyone seriously thinks that Barak is going to be prime minister. But Labor it seems is going to have a fairly stable place in parliament. It might even keep the number of seats it has now.
"And if it does, that will have been a real achievement for a party that was in a terrible situation a few weeks back."
Party politics
The Labor party was founded in 1968 when a number of centrist and leftist parties entered into a political alliance.
The centre-left movement was for years seen as Israel's natural party of government, supplying seven out of 12 premiers.
In 1992, Yitzhak Rabin led the party to win 44 votes in the 120-member parliament. Rabin quickly banked on his substantial win at the polls to push for a peace deal with the Palestinians.
His policies of "land-for-peace" with the Palestinians angered many in Israel's right-wing movements. Rabin was assassinated in October 1995 and the party leadership passed on to Shimon Peres.
Peres called for early elections and lost his office to up-and-coming Likud leader, Benjamin Netanyahu.
Losing ground
In 2003, Labor suffered another poll defeat when Amram Mitzna, the then party leader, won only 19 seats.
Labor maintained that number in March 2006 under Moroccan-born Amir Peretz, who assumed chairmanship of the party by ousting Peres in a leadership contest. Barak took the helm in June 2007, coming out of the political retirement he took after the breakdown of the Camp David peace talks in 2000. Traditionally the main left-wing party, Labor's leadership was previously drawn exclusively from the relatively well-off ranks of European Jews. Before the Gaza war, Labour languished at the single-digit end of opinion polls.
After supporting the war, it is expected to get between 14 to 17 seats, which would still be a new low for the veteran party.
Negotiations with the Palestinians
The Labor party was in power when Israel fought major wars with the Arabs in 1956, 1967 and 1973.
However, in the past two decades it has pushed for peace negotiations with the Palestinians and called for the dismantling of most Israeli settlements.
In 2000, Barak and Yasser Arafat, the late Palestinian president, came close to signing a final status agreement over Jerusalem's future and the creation of a Palestinian state.
However, the talks, held in Camp David under the auspices of Bill Clinton, the former US president, broke down when both sides accused each other of reneging on promises.
In 2009, Barak signalled that Israel may consider the Arab Peace Initiative, the Saudi-sponsored peace plan first announced in 2002 and reiterated in 2008, which called on Israel to return to the 1967 demarcation line in exchange for full diplomatic ties with the Arab world.
On the economic front, the Labofr party has pursued a free-market system and ensured minimal government interference in the economy.

George Bruce (5 July 1781, Edinburgh - 6 July 1866, New York City) was a Scottish-American inventor and businessman. Co-owner of a type foundry in New York, on 9 November 1842 he was awarded the first design patent (a new form of patent authorized by Act of Congress) for fonts (printing typefaces and borders).[1]
Emigrating from Scotland to the United States in July 1795, he was one of the most successful type designers in the 19th century. His inventions included numerous fonts and improvements to type-casting machines.
He was the father of philanthropist Catherine Wolfe Bruce.

Vayne is one of those kind of champions who if has good a good score in the initial game can do a lot and can be a greater threat during the late game. I wouldn't say that Vayne is OP. But would rather say vayne is a good carry.
Like others said, Vayne is a very weak early game champ. Quite possibly the weakest early. With that said she scales hardest late game and doubly so with BotRK. She is one of the hardest ADC champs and also the lowest health pool of the carries. Vayne is in no way OP. In lane, she is expected to lose lane but a good Vayne has no counters except those that scale into late game and outranges her by double like Corki or Kogmaw. Like all champs, she is specifically vulnerable to CC and gap closing bruisers. If you are reactive and smart about positioning, it is actually hard to lose. Against skilled opposing laners, they will apply heavy pressure on Vayne to prevent her from snowballing. If vayne gets good AD and survives till late game, she is immediately a huge threat assuming you are good. You should run cleanse with her 90% of the time and play very smart. Even if she's a monster late game, she can be killed very easily.
Dalek Hal
A vayne player that knows how to use her mobility is a scarry thing. I had a vayne dive inner mid turret. I used Leona's ult to stun her, then jumped to her and stunned her as the first stun wore off with my shield activated. when that stun wore off she used her knockback to stun me into a wall and the she tumbled out of turret range and my shield explosion to live with like 10 hp.
That being said, if your going against vayne having multiple stuns is needed in lane and then your adc must be able to get the kill while she is stunned because if she isn't dead by then she can just roll away to safety with her kit.
SeCKS Egai
D3ad Puppi3s
listen guys im not saying vayne is op all i said was 9 times out of 10 i get fed when i play vayne. i have went against every support in the game and i was also paired with every support in the game. i have played vayne for a pretty long time now and like i said i never called her op because she has any flaws i was just stating how strong she is and wanted to know if you guys thought she was op or not
Míley Dyrus
Vayne has one of the lowest winrates of all ADCs.
She was actually up for a buff in PBE.
once draven is nerfed, people will see how ****ing overpowered vayne is

The 2010/2011 edition of the Calgary Flames went their seperate ways on Monday afternoon after a second straight season out of the postseason. The team fulfilled their final media obligations, met with the coaching staff for the final time and, of course, cleaned out their lockers. Here are some observations from a day the that came too early for the Flames.

The regular season reached its conclusion this evening, with the playoff matchups now set for next week's hostilities. Before that gets underway, it's a good time to have one last look at the news from Calgary and around the league. This time around, the Flames play out the string, the Ducks get home ice, and the 'Canes fall at the last hurdle.

Calgary's season series with the Vancouver Canucks will end with zero regulation wins for the Flames, after they fell 3-2 in overtime Saturday night at the 'Dome. The Nucks stormed back from a 2-0 deficit and scored a pair in the third period before a Christian Ehrhoff shot sealed things in extra time; the Flames will finish with 94 points on the season, finishing the season with an overtime loss.

Learning to sew
I am teaching myself the art, as there aren't many people in my world that sew. It seems to be a dying art.
I have just bought all the fabric and notations I need for this project.
When I was ironing the fabrics/linings, I found that the width of my lining isn't what was stated on the bolt and that the lining is wider (selvage to selvage) than my fabric and also it's wider then my pattern calls for.
How do I fix this?
Thanks very much for any input.
Telling us what your project is will help us help you. If you are making a garment or craft type project it won't make a difference, as you are going to cut out pattern pieces.
Welcome to the world of sewing and the forum. You'll get lots of good advice here.
Hi meghera
The lining being wider shouldn't make any difference. Now if it were narrower you might have a problem.
Just lay out your pattern pieces according to the pattern directions and cut. Make sure you follow the patterns directions for straight grain line.
If you are making curtains or something that requires the full width then trim off the excess. For curtains make sure you trim off the selvedges on both material and lining so you have a nice laying side seam. If the excess is not too much then just make a bigger hem on the lining.
If you have any more questions feel free to ask. However it is best to give as many details as possible.

Waiting time can be long for those seeking wheelchair-accessible rentals
Gazette (Colorado Springs, CO), 2014-08-06
Aug. 06 --People living in nursing homes across Colorado Springs can expect to wait two years before a wheelchair-accessible public housing unit is available, the leader of a local nonprofit said Wednesday.
The issue was among several voiced Wednesday night at a hearing to gauge the housing and community development needs across the city -- a key requirement for Colorado Springs to receive millions of dollars each year in U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development grants.
Among the most-mentioned needs: Increased services and housing for people with disabilities, including more affordable, ground-level or elevator-assessable housing units and more buildings that can accommodate the hearing impaired.
Too often, that housing shortage leaves people stuck in high-priced nursing homes when an apartment would be cheaper, said Patricia Yeager , chief executive of The Independence Center, a nonprofit that aims to help people live more independent lives.
"We try to work with developers and apartment owners to help them make their apartments more accessible," Yeager said. "And we're having some success with that. But we need more apartments."
The hearing marked an early point in the city's development of its new five-year plan for housing and community development projects, which runs from April 1, 2015 through March 31, 2020 .
The plan covers three grants geared toward helping low and moderate-income residents in Colorado Springs , while revitalizing the areas and homes they live in. That generally means areas where the average single person makes up to $39,200 , and a family of four earns $56,000 , according to the city's presentation Wednesday.
The city estimates it will receive $3.3 million from grants during the first year of the plan. The money has typically gone toward a bevy of projects, including developing and refurbishing affordable housing units, building sidewalks, supporting code enforcement and funding nonprofits that help the homeless and children in need.
Over the next five years, attendees on Wednesday also voiced support for a greater emphasis on revitalizing south Nevada Avenue , as well as areas with high levels of child poverty, high police call volumes and areas with more elderly residents. One person called on the city to help address flood plain regulations on the city's southwest side along Cheyenne Creek , which could be hindering development.
City officials are in the process of retooling the way they distribute these grants, in part by focusing on smaller projects that have a greater impact -- rather than spread small amounts of money across a greater area of the city, said Aimee Cox , who oversees the city's housing division.
City officials will also demand that agencies and developers receiving the federal grant money through the city offer more specific data on each projects' impact, in an effort to better quantify whether the projects are working, she said.
"We're really going to be looking for projects that move the needle on a priority," Cox said.
The plan will be developed over the next few months, and another public hearing is scheduled for January. The city expects to submit its final version to HUD in February.

National Review personalities exploited questions surrounding Rolling Stone's high-profile account of a rape at the University of Virginia (UVA) in order to deny the prevalence of sexual assault on college campuses and suggested that women should do more to protect themselves, a response in keeping with the outlet's history of denialist, victim-blaming sexual assault coverage.
Right-wing media have championed photo ID requirements on EBT cards for Maine residents who receive food stamp benefits, claiming high levels of waste and fraud. But in reality, Maine's SNAP program is not rampant with fraud and such photo identification measures have proved inefficient in other states.
Conservative media outlets are attacking President Obama's immigration action with myths that the newly protected workers will hurt the economy and the tax system. In reality, immigration increases wages and doesn't hurt employment, and the executive action is likely to boost tax revenue.
Right-wing media outlets are trying to draw a distinction between Republican administrations' executive actions on immigration and President Obama's proposed order, claiming that the current president's authority for deferring deportation -- unlike that of his predecessors -- is illegitimate.
On November 20, Obama will reportedly issue an executive order that would suspend deportations for certain classes of undocumented immigrants currently living in the United States. Although the full details of the order aren't yet known, it is expected to focus in part on keeping families together and to provide temporary administrative relief to immigrants who are undocumented but whose children are U.S. citizens or otherwise legally present. There is plenty of legal precedent to support Obama's exercise of prosecutorial discretion to halt some deportation proceedings, and experts from across the political spectrum have pointed out that this sort of executive action has taken place in the past, notably once when Congress failed to pass immigration reform.
Yet right-wing media have nevertheless fearmongered about the legality of Obama's proposed executive action, even though the Associated Press reported that both Ronald Reagan and George H.W. Bush "acted unilaterally on immigration," as have numerous presidents before and since. Despite this Republican precedent, which the American Immigration Council has called a "striking historical parallel," conservative media figures have sought to deny the similarity. Radio host Mark Levin slammed the Associated Press report, saying, "No, Ronald Reagan, no, George H.W. Bush did not do what Obama is about to do," because Reagan was acting in response to the Immigration Reform and Control Act (IRCA), which "Congress passed" and "sent to the president."
National Review Online contributor Mark Krikorian also tried to distinguish Obama's "threatened move" from Reagan and Bush's executive actions, calling the comparison a "nice try." Krikorian went on to argue that Reagan's action "is simply irrelevant to the current case" because it "was a legitimate exercise of prosecutorial discretion shortly after passage of" IRCA. Krikorian also rejected the similarities to George H.W. Bush's immigration order, arguing that it "cannot meaningfully be described as precedent for Obama's scheme" because, among other reasons, Bush's move was a "cleanup measure for the implementation of the once-in-history amnesty that was passed by Congress."
Rush Limbaugh repeated this attack on the November 18 edition of his show, saying that "it's uncanny to me how often the Democrat Party, when they get in a jam and when they know they're doing something that is untoward, when they know they're doing something that's not above board -- like this clearly is not above board -- they go back and they cite Reagan." Later, Limbaugh claimed that "Reagan never took executive action. This is a bold-faced, flat-out lie."
This Election Day, a number of states are implementing strict new voter ID laws and registration policies in a high-turnout election for the first time. These measures have been found to have the potential to disenfranchise thousands of voters -- typically people of color, young voters, and women -- who are unable to obtain select forms of ID or are caught in flawed voter purges, but right-wing media figures frequently argue that these laws do not suppress the vote.
The right-wing media have repeatedly claimed that these laws are not racially discriminatory, do not affect minority voter turnout, and maintain the integrity of the election system. Fox News has referred to recent court decisions striking down voter ID laws as illegal or unconstitutional "setbacks" and questioned the timing of the courts' intervention on behalf of the right to vote. Right-wing media have also railed against attempts to stop voter purges, despite the fact that reports have discovered "Hispanic, Democratic and independent-minded voters are the most likely to be targeted" in these methodologically unsound attempts to find ineligible voters.
Repeatedly discredited National Review Online contributor Hans von Spakovsky has been particularly vocal in his support of these unnecessary and redundant election measures, dismissing concerns of "chaos at the polls" even though hundreds of thousands of voters are at risk. On the November 2 edition of Fox News' America's News HQ, von Spakovsky again promoted strict voter ID laws and registration checks and claimed that "this idea" that voter ID laws can "suppress minority voters, we know is not true":
But qualified voters are already being turned away from the polls or purged from the rolls in states that have enacted these new Republican-pushed measures, despite right-wing media's promises that such laws would have no negative effect.

2. Voter "Crosschecks" Purge Eligible Voters
3. Provisional Ballots Are Not Preventing Disenfranchisement
From the October 28 Restore America Rally:
Loading the player reg...
Right-wing media outlets have used misleading voter fraud stories to stoke fears of rampant voter fraud in the months leading up to the 2014 midterm elections. But experts state that voter fraud in the U.S. is virtually non-existent and that voter ID laws would actually disenfranchise voters.
Conservative media are accusing the Obama administration of attempting to "sell U.S. citizenship" to foreign children following the announcement from U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) that it will expand the definition of "mother" and "parent" to allow women who use assisted reproductive technology (ART) like egg donors to confer their U.S. citizenship on their children. The policy corrects a "glaring inequity" in the law due to outdated terminology that has required some women to adopt the very children they've birthed.
In its most recent effort to defend discriminatory and unnecessary strict voter ID laws, National Review Online has resorted in the past week to recycling debunked myths about this type of voter suppression, most recently linking voter ID to noncitizen voting, which is an unrelated issue.
With the midterm elections coming up, right-wing media are aggressively lying about voter ID laws and voter fraud, and NRO is no exception. NRO has previously praised Texas' strict voter ID law -- which has been found to be racially discriminatory in both intent and effect -- called for the remaining protections available under the Voting Rights Act to be repealed or limited, and dismissed concerns over Wisconsin's voter ID law, which has the potential to disenfranchise hundreds of thousands of voters when it goes into effect.
In just the past week, NRO writers have doubled down on nearly all of these poorly supported right-wing positions. National Review editor Rich Lowry defended Texas's strict voter ID law -- which a federal judge determined to be an "unconstitutional poll tax" -- by arguing that the disenfranchisement these laws cause is justified by the potential for in-person voter impersonation, even though that kind of fraud is virtually non-existent. Lowry also incorrectly claimed that strict voter ID laws require the same level of identification needed to buy a gun. NRO contributor Hans von Spakovsky wrote in The Wall Street Journal that "moves to shore up election integrity have been resisted by progressives" who are challenging the legality of voter ID laws "without evidence that such efforts suppress minority turnout" -- despite the fact that a recent report found a decrease in voter of color turnout in two states was attributable to strict voter ID. For good measure, von Spakovsky, a discredited proponent of restrictive election rules, also conflated other forms of voter fraud with in-person impersonation, the only type of fraud voter ID prevents.
The dissembling continued with another NRO contributor, Mona Charen, offering more of the same in a post titled "The Voter-ID Myth Crashes." Charen seized on a contested study of the rate of noncitizen voting to claim that "[b]eing asked to show a photo ID can diminish several kinds of fraud, including impersonation, duplicate registrations in different jurisdictions, and voting by ineligible people including felons and noncitizens," but buried the fact that "[v]oter-ID laws will not prevent noncitizens from voting."
Academics and experts are casting doubt on the merits of a new study, promoted by right-wing media, which estimates that a small percentage of non-citizens vote and might sway the outcome of elections.
Following a series of attacks in North America carried out by suspects with reported beliefs in religious extremism, Fox News figures have called for more aggressive stop-and-frisk policies, profiling of Muslims, and the surveillance of mosques.
Conservative media personalities have discouraged young women from voting as the midterm elections near, claiming that they are "too dumb to vote."
National Review Online's Ian Tuttle disregarded history when dismissing fears that "personhood amendments" and fetal-homicide laws could open the door to criminal prosecutions for women who have miscarriages or abortions. Women have already been prosecuted for miscarriages in several states, and personhood advocates are explicitly pushing to end legal abortion.
In an October 21 article, Tuttle wrote that "liberals are lying about personhood amendments" like Colorado's proposed Amendment 67, which would define "'person' and 'child' in the Colorado criminal code and the Colorado wrongful death act to include unborn human beings." Tuttle asserted that opponents are mischaracterizing personhood amendments to claim they would make abortion illegal and allow the prosecution of women who have had miscarriages:
That is the talking point of opponents such as Planned Parenthood, NARAL, and Vote No 67, the main opposition campaign, which says that "any woman who suffers a miscarriage would be open to investigation for murder."
This feverish scenario runs contrary to both experience and law.
Since 2006, Alabama has defined "person" in its homicide statute to include "an unborn child in utero at any stage of development, regardless of viability." No women have been investigated for miscarriages in Alabama. Or in Alaska, where a similar law also took effect in 2006. Or in Kentucky (2004). Or in North Dakota (1987). Or others.
But Tuttle ignored the fact that similar state laws have already been used to prosecute women -- in Indiana, a woman who attempted to commit suicide while eight months pregnant was charged with murder. In fact, in Alabama, cited by Tuttle as an innocent actor, the judiciary is no stranger to interpreting the law in a way that pushes a personhood agenda. In that state, two women were prosecuted for endangering their unborn children by ingesting illicit drugs during their pregnancies, even though their "behavior ... was not intended to be criminalized when the Legislature enacted the chemical-endangerment statute." According to RH Reality Check, these laws are increasingly "misused by overzealous prosecutors and judges to trample women's rights in favor of the nebulous personhood rights of fertilized eggs, embryos, and fetuses."
Tuttle also waved off concerns that Colorado's personhood amendment would effectively prohibit abortion, despite the fact that the Colorado amendment was proposed by Personhood USA's state chapter Personhood Colorado, a group explicitly pushing to end legal abortion:
And as in the Alabama Supreme Court's landmark ruling in Hamilton v. Scott in 2012, reaffirming Alabama's inclusion of unborn persons in its homicide statutes, the constitutional protections to abortion afforded by Roe v. Wade would almost certainly be read into Colorado's law. A "woman's right to terminate her pregnancy" (Roe's language) is not explicitly exempted from criminal prosecutions, but this is likely, as a practical matter, unnecessary.
The very case Tuttle cites has been described as an explicit roadmap for overturning Roe v. Wade. As ProPublica explained, the judge who authored the opinion in Hamilton is "a pivotal figure in the so-called personhood movement" who wrote that "a centerpiece of Roe -- that states cannot ban abortion before the point of viability -- was 'arbitrary,' 'incoherent,' and 'mostly unsupported by legal precedent.'"
Personalidades de los medios conservadores han desanimado a las mujeres jóvenes a ejercer su voto en el marco de las elecciones de medio período, alegando que "son demasiado tontas para votar."
Right-wing media falsely claimed that a New York Times report on old chemical weapons found in Iraq after the 2003 invasion vindicated former President George W. Bush's rationale for the Iraq war - ignoring the fact that the chemical weapons discovered predated 1991 and thus could not vindicate Bush's rationale which relied on an active, on-going chemical weapons program at the time of the invasion.

I want this to be my peninsula -what do you call it?
This table is the inspiration for the peninsula I want to build/buy for my new kitchen. Does anyone know what this kind of table is called and where I might find either one to purchase or materials for it? I don't know if a carpenter could build it without first sourcing the ornate bottom.
I thought it would be considered "bistro" but that google brought up cheap metal tables.
Any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated!
Image link:
It looks to be a trestle table with iron/metal legs.
We had a kitchen table like this using iron sides from a treadle. Hubby only had to buy a steel rod long enough to balance and tie into the sides. The openings were there for rod and cap locks. The table was a butcher block top from another table of yore.
Read in your blog that you're in SoCal--
I searched craigslist (via Statewidelist), and found this in the LA area. They were sold originally with marble tops. Would it be large enough to support your top?
Don't know about prices in your area, but I bought one in central OH recently for $75.00, with the original marble. I've seen them priced (with the marble), from $75 to $150.
Hope you find what you want.
Here is a link that might be useful: Wrought iron legs.
Here's another one in LaMesa, with the marble top (looks to be in bad shape, but could be hand sanded and used elsewhere in the kitchen for a baking center.) Great price!
Here is a link that might be useful: Marble top table/wrought iron legs.
And one in Vista--this has a beautiful marble top--$75.00.
Here is a link that might be useful: Wrought iron legs, Carrara top?
One more--this one in Bakersfield.
Here is a link that might be useful: Wrought iron legs, green marble top.

I love honest people.
I am a very honest and caring person. My ideal match would be a sincere woman. I am open to any ethnicity and race. I do not care about how much money a woman makes. I also do not care about a woman's educational level. A woman's personality and honesty is very important to me. I am looking for someone who I can cook for. What ever your favorite meal is I will eventually figure out how to cook it. It is nice to have a things in common, nut at the same time opposites attract. I am not in a hurry to find someone, but at the same time life is short.

Middle of the Road
I like Southern California in general, because of the weather, and the ethnic diversity.
I like all music except for modern country. I can cook pretty good. I am open to trying out new things, and activities.
I like to go out, on the weekends. I throw big party at my house with a live band, every month or two. Once in a while I go to a bar. I see a movie every now and then. I like the outdoors.

What's in Your Ultimate Chopped Basket?by FN Dish Editor in Shows, January 21st, 2013
Three rounds, three different baskets and 12 out-of-this-world ingredients. Whether it's Chopped Champions, All-Stars or regular-season episodes, that's a lot of combinations to come up with.
So we're asking this question: What would be included in your ultimate Chopped basket? Not something you'd want to receive, but something you'd give to a fellow competitor. Would there be two proteins? All sweets? Would you include one or two ingredients they've probably never heard of? It can be argued that the simplest ingredients like eggs, chicken, pasta and rice are sometimes the hardest.
Tell us what you'd choose in the comments below.

A delightful time in Chappy
We were so lucky to have found this delightful listing, our family returned to this wonderful house for a second year and already can't wait for next year! It is perfectly situated near Wasque and bike-able to everything. The house itself is airy and comfortable with plenty of space and comfort. Tucked in the trees, spacious and gracious kitchen, replete with a screened porch and outdoor shower...it really is a magical place to tuck you and your family away for a much needed break. Happy on Chappy!
Wonderful family vacation home - so child friendly
Our family came from Chicago, Boston and Hartford to spend a week together and we had the best vacation ever!!! We were close to everything. Our 2-year-old granddaughter so enjoyed her time so much. The house had everything you can image to enjoy your stay on Chappaquiddick!!! Thanks so much to the owner for sharing this beautiful property.
Best Vacation Spot!
We've been staying here for years and love it! The house is beautiful and you can't beat the location. It's very close to the beach and a short walk to a hiking trail in a wildlife preserve. Chappaquiddick is such a quiet getaway, but close enough to the excitement of edgartown. I would recommend this place anytime, spring, summer or fall!
