So, I've been reading about the brewing process, and I'm interested in brewing a millet beer. However, most millet sold locally is hulled millet, making it very hard to sprout (there is no malted millet I can find yet, although I understand a CO company will have some available this summer). I however have tried to malt some hulled millet and now just have a batch of soggy millet.
I was wondering if it is absolutely necessary to malt before brewing. Will brewing just take longer or not work at all if the millet has not been broken down into simple sugars? There should be a small amount of natural sugars, and I could add some sugar if that would help. I just don't want to throw away this batch without trying something.
Malting is all about getting the enzymes working that the mash needs. Raw grains don't have those enzymes in sufficient quantity to convert the starches.
I've heard that sweet potatoes have a lot of enzymes, so maybe you could do a mix of sweet potatoe and raw millet to get wort, but I don't know much about GF brewing.
To paraphrase Dr. England - "Off-flavors smooth with time. So do mountains. Brew it right from the start!"
My blogsite: http://nateobrew.blogspot.com/
You can buy amylase at any winemaking store (they sell it as "pectic enzyme"), so if you were only planning on doing an amylase rest, you should be OK with just it. Don't know where to get the other enzymes though, in case you need them.
Where are you getting your millet? I want to brew mbege in the future, so I'm gonna need some. I read somewhere you can get it at pet stores, as bird food...
A pessimist is a well informed optimist.
If you can drink normal beer, try using premalted barley and add the millet to it during the mashing process.
There's some bits about malting over in the gluten free forum, but I'm not sure if we've been successful with it compared to the other grains.
If it's not malted, or mashed with enzymes, then you're not likely to get much with millet, other than some flavor and starch. (Millet can be cooked like rice and served as a side dish so it's not like it'd be a total waste)
One of the problems with the storebought enzymes is that it's all alpha enzymes. I'm still working on understanding grain brewing, so I believe this means that you wind up with a fuller bodied worth with less fermentable sugars. (Unless I have it completely backwards, in which case I'll edit this and strike it out.) We're lacking the beta enzymes in which people are testing out different non-barley sources for (including sweet potato). Which I believe breaks down the starches and larger sugar chains to smaller ones that are more easily fermentable.
If you've not done any brewing, I'd recommend starting with barley or extract. Otherwise, browse the gluten free forum for more info on millet.
Hey, you can always chew the grain...
[QUOTE=Inodoro_Pereyra;2844099]Where are you getting your millet? /QUOTE]
I got mine at a natural foods store - you can find hulled millet in the bulk foods sections of stores. Unfortunately, it has low germination rates, so it doesn't appear to be terribly useful for malting. I haven't found unhulled millet yet, although I saw one could buy it online (albeit in small quantities). More promising is the fact that a CO company will be selling malted millet this summer.
I have not brewed beer before. Although I'm not anti-gluten, I'm trying to recreate the West African "Tchoukatou" which is millet beer, so mixing it with barley probably would change the taste too much. Millet beer is not hard to make and it ends up tasting like hard cider. mmm. I will try the sweet potatos - thanks for the suggestion - and see how it turns out. Otherwise, looks like I'll have to wait until July to buy malted millet.
Thanks all!
Hmmm...I don't know if the bird seed is unhulled...
Anyways, I wasn't completely kidding when I suggested you could chew the grain. Peruvians use this method to brew a kind of corn beer they call "chicha", as saliva contains amylase. Maybe not the best way, but...
I couldn't find any information about "tchoukatou". Do you have a link to a recipe? I'd like to try it in the future...

The show is over
Well the show is over and I would call it a success. Although things were slow on Friday. It was a gloomy, windy day in the low 50's. We still had a pretty good crowd but not many buyers. I think it was lots of local people who normally wouldn't attend and others just checking out the merchandise. It was a long day to be out in the cold. But Saturday was a sunny fall day in the 60's and the crowd was huge. It was wall to wall people and they were buying. My cabin bench did not sell but the bear chair was the fist to go. 3 planter chairs sold...the pine cone, the sunflower and the fish. A couple step ladders and my chickadee stool sold. All of my signs sold and most of the fan blades. If I could of sold one more chair I would of been over $1000. I did get a blue ribbon. It's called a purchase award. I'm not sure how it works...I guess the community puts money into a fund that the committee uses to purchase things. If they buy something for at least $25 you get a blue ribbon to hang in your booth. Of course everyone thinks you've won an award so it may help your sales. I got a good lead from a bed and breakfast. They want me to come over and look at there place and paint signs for the rooms. They even said I could put some chairs in the rooms on consignment. So I'm going over there this week. They want a local artist to do this for them. It turned out to be a fun weekend. Now I have the winter to come up with some new designs and ideas for next year. Oh...The cat chair from the quilt lady sold and one of my painted canes on Sunday. Gail
Oh congratulations on everything Gail!!! I knew your pieces would be a big hit. Can't believe the bench didn't go, but kitty will welcome it back home! ha
Great deal on the B&B thing too. That should give you a good outlet to sell your chairs and how fun to get to make some signage for their place. Will you put a tag on the chairs that says you do custom painting in case they want to order something different than what you have on show?
I love the canes. May have to paint some flowers on my MIL's cane and walker for her when we go back home next year. She loves pansies. I'd better start practicing now. ha
Congrats again on a good show. We'll look forward to seeing all the fun things you come up with for the B&B and of course next years show. ~Anj
Anj, the B&B said I can put my business cards there. They have a website www.bowmansoakhillbedandbreakfast.com. I think they've only been open for a couple years. I go to Florida for the winter in 2 weeks. They said I can paint the signs while I'm down there. I'm thinking I can mail them the signs. I can't wait to go over and check out the rooms. It sounds like fun but I have no idea what to charge them for this. I guess it depends on what they have in mind for signs. The canes are fun to paint and pretty easy too. I'm sure you could do it. Gail
Congrats on such a successful show Gail. I am so glad it went well for you. Bet kitty will be happy to see "her" bench again! ;o)
Love those canes. Nice to make a necessity look so pretty.
It certainly has been fun to see all your projects as you got ready for the show. Hope you will continue to share with us as you do the signs and chair for the B&B. Now you have two outlets for your chairs in addition to the show. Good for you.
Gracie, this is the only show I do. We winter in FL and my hubby wants to leave for St. Petersburg soon. I'm hoping I'll be able to get small things painted during the winter to bring back for next years show. I still have 3 planter chairs left and I might keep them for a show here in the Dells in early June. I think they will sell better in the spring. I'd love to go to Galena. I hear it's very nice.
"I wonder if we bump this up if Gail will sign in from Florida and let us know how that show went...I can't imagine she took many of those beautiful painted pieces back home with her...
Hey Gail, are you out there somewhere???
Suzan J"
Hi Suzan and everyone, I guess some of you have missed my posts so I'm bumping up this one. The show was a lot of fun after the first day when everyone froze in the unusually cold weather. I just do this one big show because it takes me all summer to get my chairs painted for it. Especially since I don't stay at home for the winter, so I don't have all winter to prepare. And there's only so much room in the van. I can't bring back too many chairs in the spring when we return to Wisconsin. My goal is to get lots of signs and fan blades painted this winter for my show, but so far everytime I paint something someone wants to buy it ;~) Anyway I'm still around and I have posted most of what I've gotten painted. You have to look in the GALLERY section. I'll bump some of them. And look in "PLEASE SHOW US YOUR PAINTED FURNITURE & HOUSEHOLD OBJECTS" in the gallery section. I posted some pics there of some things I painted last year. Gail
Hi Oceanna, glad you like my canes. A friend of mine gave me the idea when she asked me to paint her cane. Her doctor told her to use one to ease her back pain. She said if she had to use a cane it better be a pretty cane. Just look a couple post down from this one and you can find some of my chairs and a bench. I also posted some pics under your original post about decorative furniture on the gallery side. I hope you like them. Gail

We don't want to add to the already overheated panic over Toyota's (NYSE:TM) accelerator and braking problems, but should we expect an increase in recalls across the industry as cars get more complex and dependent on electronics and software?
On the heels of Toyota's accelerator pedal recall and Prius braking issues, "In what could be deemed a broader problem with hybrid cars, Ford Motor Co. (NYSE:F) said on Thursday it would roll out a software patch for consumers to address similar problems with braking reported on its Ford Fusion and Mercury Milan models." Ford's action came after Consumer Reports said one of its test engineers had experienced what appeared to be a loss of braking power with a Fusion hybrid. Ford said it was aware of one minor accident related to the braking problem but no injuries.
It's a reasonable assumption that problems with software and electronic systems will increase as cars become more complex, and they also may be more difficult to diagnose.
On the positive side, the fixes might end up being quicker and less expensive if they involve a software rather than hardware fix. Presumably when we plug in our electric cars of the future, we'll also be able to download software updates or service packs that fix problems and improve performance.
Back to the here and now, as we noted earlier, Toyota's problems are bad news for the industry as a whole. Analyst comments monitored by Alacra Pulse continue to be overwhelmingly negative. The fact that the exact causes of all the accelerator problems has not been definitively pinpointed is cause for concern, both on safety grounds and to the extent that it affects consumer confidence in Toyota fixing the problem. As the New York Times reports, there are still unexplained incidents, and it is a sure bet we are in for some more sensational, emotional TV and newspaper coverage that cause more damage to Toyota's reputation.
Tragic though they are, it's ironic that the number of incidents and accidents is but a fraction of the fatalities and injuries caused by, for example, cellphone use in those same vehicles. Certainly these are important safety issues and Toyota should be held accountable for any shortcomings on its part. If only we could demand the same level of accountability from distracted drivers.
Michael Karesh of TrueDelta argues that contrary to popular perception, when it comes handling recalls, Toyota behaves no differently than GM, Ford, Chrysler, Nissan, or VW and "has not in recent memory been more trustworthy than these companies. But apparently many people felt they were more trustworthy anyway. This illusion is now, in many cases, gone."
But there is a silver lining: as pointed out by the FT's Philip Stephens, now is a great time to buy a Toyota as the odds of a problem are still slim and you should be able to get a good deal at your local dealer. Still, it seems likely that the risk-taking bargain hunters will be outnumbered by cautious consumers who will shop elsewhere.

Funny Dreaming Pictures
In Dreams I See Buscemi. Member reactions:
I think texture is excessive but ambientation is impressive.
Fantastic Steve Buscemi collage. Like the fish-eye effect.
The problem with the negative comment I think texture is excessive critique is just that it's subjective. I gave this a 10 because I liked the texture and that is just my personal opinion.
Thanks, UncleChamp. I like the texture, too, it was on purpose and I could have reduced it, but I didn't As for "crazy liquefy" that's a matter of taste, too, but at least wasn't a negative comment much. I love liquify. I'd do everything in liquify if I could.

I'm seriously loving my juicer these days and the combos I'm coming up with!
Tag me if you make it. I'd love to know what you think!
*People had been asking me what kind of equipment I use. To be clear, I use an actual juicer. This one to be exact. If you use a blender, you'll need to strain out of the chunks or just stick with a smoothie type consistency. They each have their benefits.

The Family Tree Problem Solver
Tried-and-true Tactics for Tracing Elusive Ancestors
From the critics
Community Activity
CommentAdd a Comment
Very USA centric but some tricks for finding an elusive ancestor including the first step – analysing the problem and planning a strategy for success. Not a good book for the beginner Australian researcher as the American examples (eg. References to census and courthouse and land records) will be frustrating without having an understanding of the equivalent or similar Australian resources.
Some useful information at the back of the book include DNA testing, glossary of terms and blank charts and forms which can be copied.

so in my opinion, if you want to hit 8k per day you still can do it easily with both factions.
"Drama for nothing this post is, yes"...to quote a charakter from another franchise.
also the time it would take you to do your listed dailys, i may be able to pull of double of that with PVP and fleet actions.
i mean, half of what you list are just a maximum time consuming missions that reward nothing compared to the time invested. basically in the time you travel around in sector space to get to them i can make like 4k dilithium.

I should probably have modified my commentary that as solo play goes, there is no longer a way to make the 8k mark. That would have then excluded any of the multiplayer action. I also should have said as solo content missions go, which then would have excluded DOff assignments, which I am fully aware can amount to somewhere around 1.5-2k dil by the end of the day.
My apologies for not clarifying that sooner.
I never said what I was presenting was true for everyone. I was just pointing out something I noticed that wasn't there before, since before S7 was released, you could hit your 8k mark pretty easily as a fed with solo play mission content only. As is now, you can't. That's all I was saying.
Thought I would put all of these together. I also bolded a portion of my post just to make sure my intent behind this post was made clearer.
It is said the best weapon is one that is never fired. I disagree. The best weapon is one you only have to fire... once.

North Carolina Maritime Museum
The North Carolina Maritime Museum is a divisional museum of the North Carolina Museum of History. There are several branches of the Maritime Museum located in Beaufort, Southport and Roanoke Island.
North Carolina Maritime Museum at Beaufort[edit]
The Beaufort museum focuses on North Carolina's cultural maritime heritage, coastal environment and natural history. Exhibit displays include shells from over 100 countries,[1] fish models, shipwrecks, ship equipment, types of watercraft historically used in North Carolina, whaling, oyster catching, waterfowl hunting equipment and duck decoys, and venomous snakes found in North Carolina. Small aquariums are on display with local marine life. Another exhibit focuses on the history of the United States Lighthouse Service, United States Life-Saving Service, Revenue Cutter Service, Steamboat Inspection Service, and the United States Coast Guard in North Carolina.
The separate Boat Shed contains a collection of traditional working watercraft.
The Watercraft Center across from the museum is a facility for the repair and conservation of various watercraft, and offers boatbuilding courses. The Center also features the John S. MacCormack Model Shop, where visitors can learn the art of ship model making.[2]
North Carolina Maritime Museum at Southport[edit]
The North Carolina Maritime Museum at Southport focuses on the maritime heritage of the Lower Cape Fear area of southeastern North Carolina. Exhibits include ship models, nautical instruments, shipwrecks, pirates, American Civil War history, Fort Johnston (North Carolina), commercial and sport fishing, shells and hurricanes.
North Carolina Maritime Museum on Roanoke Island[edit]
The North Carolina Maritime Museum on Roanoke Island focuses on the maritime history and culture of northeastern North Carolina, including Roanoke Island. The museum is located in the George Washington Creef Boathouse on the Manteo waterfront. Exhibits include boats typically used in the Outer Banks by fishermen and sailors. Classes are offered in sailing, boat handling and boat safety in community boating programs. The Creef Boathouse also offers boat building workshops.
Visitors can also enter the Roanoke Marshes lighthouse, a replica of the original 1877 Roanoke Marshes Light once located in Croatan Sound that contains exhibits about the original lighthouse and local maritime history.

First, in response to the 3 star rating; this is based on a prewritten text from the 14th century c.e. as well as actual historical events from the 3rd century c.e. So there can only be as many plot twists as would have happened, plus this film is based on history far out-dating William Wallace or Alexander Nevsky. Yes there are many historical flaws, that is not arguable.
Second, it is an amazing form of Chinese cinema, which like many other films from the region holds onto the idea of "Film is Poetry" concept seen in works such as Hero, House of Flying Daggers and Crouching Tiger Hidden Dragon. To truelly appreciate this type of cinema, you have to view the film as exaggeration, as seen in fight scenes, just as details are exaggerated in poetry. Do not let this make you believe the film is "panssy" full of flowery fights, it has some of the best choreographed fights of any movie made, and has plenty of violence. The quality of Chinese cinema has sky rocketed over the past decade. As such; this movie does not have the 1070's Kung-Fu feel. The picture quality is on par with any major American film, as is the acting, cinematics, and music. The description given from Barnes & Noble states that Chow Yun-Fat is a cast member. He is not, but he, and most of the main actors in this film, are main charecters in the films listed earlier (if you are dying to see them in other works) all of whice I highly recommend if you even find this film but a sliver of enjoyment, which you will. So, this is an amazing film worth everyone of it's stars, made by one of the leading directors and action movie producers in the world, and can easily be enjoyed by anyone, foreign film lovers or not.
One final suggestion; watch the film in Mandarin! Too much is lost when you watch it dubbed.

John Woo's epic telling of the famous third-century battle at Red Cliff, the beginning of the end for the Han dynasty. Red Cliff, one of China's historically based wuxia stories, has been retold for centuries John Woo's rendition here has extraordinary production quality and more closely draws from historical research and fact than other renditions. This film was one of John Woo's lifetime ambitions and the quality shows. Chinese cinema has come a long way since the Hong Kong days of The Shaw Brothers. A lesson in how diplomacy, intelligence, an uneasy coallition, and creative military strategy and tactics defeat a vastly superior force and prevail against the unbridled ambitions of an emperor's prime minister while maintaining their loayalty to their emperor.Was this review helpful?

I tried to like this movie. I really did.
What it turned out to be was essentially a Chinese reading of Braveheart or Alexander Nevsky, on a larger canvas-- a very black-and-white bit of historical legend with a thick coating of epic grandeur. I pretty much wrote off the historical accuracy after it became clear that all of the "good guy" leaders were gentle noble souls and champions of the peasantry, as well as unstoppable killing machines who could butcher an entire regiment single-handedly. In the uncut version, things tend to drag a bit. Ten minutes of watching one middle-aged general kill one pikeman after another got a little stale.
If you're looking for a big historical epic, this is it-- just don't hope for too much in the way of complex characters or surprise plot twists.

Photo of the Week: Growing a Cotton Industry in Uganda
January 24, 2014
With TechnoServe's assistance, smallholder cotton farmers in eastern Uganda are increasing their yields and selling to a thriving cotton processing business.
A truck painted with the words "Grow More Cotton" delivers the latest harvest from local farmers to Mutuma, a cotton processing business in Kiyunga, Uganda. With TechnoServe's assistance, smallholder producers in the region are doing just that – growing more cotton, the area's main cash crop. TechnoServe facilitated training on best agronomy practices, such as planting in properly spaced rows, which helped farmers more than double their yields. Our advisors also helped create or strengthen farmer business groups that allowed producers to aggregate their crops and access finance more easily.
Meanwhile, TechnoServe worked with Mutuma to capitalize on the farmers' improved productivity and organization. The business was able to scale up its production of cotton lint by more than 40 percent and seize a profitable new market opportunity – medical absorbent cotton. Mutuma has become an economic engine for the community, employing 250 people at peak processing season and buying cotton from 6,000 small-scale farmers.
Learn more about our work with Uganda's cotton industry.

|Property type
|Minimum Stay
This Log Condo is located 1.5 miles from the Narrows Marina and dock. Unit #1 has over 2,500 square feet of living space with a drive in garage and screened porch. The main floor has a full bath with 2 bedrooms and a fully equipped kitchen with refrigerator, stove/oven, microwave and dishwasher. The Master suite and additional bedroom is located upstairs, The walkout basement has a den and pool table.
This property can accommodate a small family or a larger gathering/family reunion. Combined with VRBO listing# 440625 the property can double sleeping capacity.
I retired from the military and wanted to do something different. I got intersted in log houses from the 1800 era. I read foxfire books and became intriqued with the idea of building log houses. I rebuilt four 1800 era log houses and really enjoy working with old wood and materials from this era. There is something special about it. I had a crazy idea about mixing old and new materials. For me there is nothing more relaxing than a log house. I am delighted with the outcome and I am sure you will be as well.
Freddie or Joyneta purchased this condo in 2012
Rustic elegance! This is a newly constructed log house with a unique blend of new and old. Upstairs in unit #1 you will find 1800 era poplar floors reclaimed from old log houses, A unique blend of logs, stone and barn lumber create a perfect get-a-way. You won't find a more relaxing place to stay while you are visiting Barren River Lake or other local attractions. After your fun day you will be glad to arrive back to the relaxing comforts of your new home away from home.
There are many places to stay. This is one of those places you will simply enjoy. There is something relaxing about log houses. This property has a unique mix of old materials of yesterday and the modern convenience of today. You will be amazed how the two work together and create a unique charm.
Two FABULOUS weekends! My family and our closest friends stayed at the cabin two weekends in September for fishing trips on Barren River Lake. We had two little kids, three "big" kids and the Moms!. The welcoming (and clean) atmosphere was so perfect for the area and our weekend plans. There was plenty of room for two families to be together (or be apart)! The kitchen is fully equipped with everything needed to cook full meals, with plenty of room for everyone to enjoy a meal together. The downstairs has a pool table and a TV room, plus lots of yard outside for running and playing. Enjoying the beautiful morning on the screened-in back porch watching the deer in the back yard was an added plus. The bedrooms worked perfectly for the two families, with plenty of room for everyone. We were less than one mile from a boat ramp and had a wonderfull weekend fishing and playing on the water. Sighseeing opportunities (local or national, such as Mammoth Cave) are within an hour or so in different directions. The owner was so courteous and available for questions and suggestions. Paradise Cafe on the way to Port Oliver was the best! We went there twice! I gladly recommend either of these cabins (we stayed in both) to anyone looking to get away for any amount of time. Oh, and the chocolate pie....no words for that delicacy! Thank you for a FABULOUS weekend!
Our friends from Australia stayed here with their 3 Daughters and couldn't have happier; this review is on their behalf. All expectations were met. Being so far from home, it meant a lot that the owners were so welcoming. Off to Disneyworld for the next adventure!
This is a wonderful place. We absolutely loved it. Very unique and full of character making the unit warm and inviting. We especially enjoyed the screen porch. We were comfortable and slept great. The owners are friendly and helpful. The chocolate pie was the best we have had. Such a nice touch. The unit is stocked with everything you need. Very clean and well maintained. The grocery store is a about 10 miles away, but there is a Dollar General just down the road. Very close to Marina and campground. We hope to visit the area again and we will definitely choose this log condo for another perfect stay! Thank you!
We could not have enjoyed our stay more. The home was perfect. It was so immaculately clean that it actually felt as if we were the first people to ever be there. The design of the home is spectacular; no detail has been left out. The towels and linens were plush and looked new, and more than enough. The owner was kind and helpful. In fact, she even delivered an amazing home-made pie at our arrival!
We rented both units. We had a party of 18 people. Never felt under any ones feet. Plenty of space.
The property is very well maintained and owners were very helpful with whatever you needed. We enjoyed 2 chocolate cream pies on arrival! Definitely plenty of towels. Master bedroom area was huge.
Location was perfect. We would recommend this property to those with a need for space for a large family or friends, We visited Mammoth Cave and Nashville, TN and Grand Ole Opry while here. The grocery shopping area in Glasgow was about 15 mins. away.
We stayed at Cabin 1 this weekend. The home is charming. The location was perfect for our trip to Barren River Lake. The condo was very clean and very well kept. The floor plan was great for our family of 5 adults. The wood combined with brick/stone inside the cabin was very appealing. We even enjoyed the cute signs posted around the cabin. We felt very welcome when we arrived to a freshly baked chocolate meringue pie. We felt like it was a privilege that the owners shared their place with us. :-) There's nothing I would change about it. We hope to return!

1.5 miles from Narrows Marina and dock.

New Romanian Military Wool Trench Coat, Light Olive Drab is rated out of 5 by 53.Rated 5 out of 5 by Steve from Nice coat, definitely worth every penny! I wear a medium and that's what I ordered and then I read the reviews about it being a little tight so I canceled my order and went with a large. I'm glad I did because the large fits like a medium. It's still a tiny bit tight around the shoulders so if you were wearing lots of layers it might be a problem but wearing alone it fits perfect. It did have one button missing so I will have to rob one of the unused buttons to replace the missing important one. Overall I would highly recommend!Date published: 2015-03-25Rated 4 out of 5 by Edward from My tailor loved the coat This is a vintage (1970), heavyweight, classically styled military wool coat with a partial cotton canvas type lining. The coat I received was unissued. It didn't exhibit any storage damage or smell bad at all but was a little wrinkled. The sizing was accurate. I'm about 160 lbs with a 42-43" chest and a large fit okay over a sweater. The only thing I didn't like was that the bottom of the coat was unfinished and a little frayed. (The reason I'm not giving it 5 stars) I took the coat to my local tailor (I think he's Turkish) to see if he could finish the bottom. He loved the coat and spentsome time looking it over and telling me a little about it.Date published: 2015-03-18Rated 5 out of 5 by Gravy from Excellent value I used this during a recent snow storm, At 15 below the parts that were covered by the coat stayed warm. I love this coat. It even looks great. Good coat, good price and fast delivery.Date published: 2015-03-12Rated 5 out of 5 by 762x54R from Heavy Heavy Wool! Excellent condition coat. Made from very heavy itchy wool. Everything an Eastern Bloc coat should be. I ordered a medium and it fits exactly as it should over regular clothes. Sleeves are maybe a bit short. I'm 5'11'' and 190 lbs so hopefully that sizing helps. But if you want a super warm coat you can't go wrong with this.Date published: 2015-03-09Rated 4 out of 5 by Magyar Tamas from Super value and very well constructed ! An exceptional example of eastern block quality and tailoring. My greatcoat is dated 1977, and after a trip to the dry cleaners it looks as if it just came out of the tailor's shop! However the extra large (52) that I ordered fits me better as a large. I'm 5'10" and 170 lbs. and the greatcoat is just a little tight across the shoulders. As you may hear a lot with these reviews, always request a size larger when it comes down to the european surplus items.Date published: 2015-03-07Rated 5 out of 5 by Leopold from RARELY FOUND VALUE This coats are beautiful and warm, and the price is so fair that makes one feel very happy acquiring a piece like this. no storage damage.Date published: 2015-03-06Rated 4 out of 5 by Mike from Nice & Warm This is a well made and very warm coat [I really appreciated it this winter!]. The only problem I see is that they are sized too small. I am a 'large' size but anticipating a problem I ordered an XL...it fits, but is tight if I have a bulky shirt on. Other than that I REALLY like this coat!Date published: 2015-03-06Rated 3 out of 5 by steve from wrong size! I ordered and was sent overcoats marked XL. However, when I tried one on it was about a men's medium! I returned the coats.Date published: 2015-03-04

 Is it 100% wool or is it a blend? Is it recycled wool?

Asked by: Thorbear

 Have read reviews - am concerned as to missing buttons or a missing belt or the right size boxed & shipped. -I would expect that someone there can make sure they are grabbing the XL size & make sure it has all the buttons & the belt.Please confirm Thank Y

 These coats are approximately 41" long (based off of a medium size).

 I'd like to request you add a sizing chart to your site. The S, M, L, XL are helpful, but what do they mean? I have purchased XL items from other places and one might be a little small, another large. Just something that says XL = 46-48 chest.Thank you.

As a semi-jaded gamer, I typically despise the concept of DLC. Often times we are presented with content that either doesn't live up to the price or publishers push their content too early in a game's life. Resogun Defenders for the PlayStation 4 is the exact opposite of that.
Even if you're a casual fan of Resogun and haven't picked it up for some time (like me), at $4.99, Defenders gives you so much value and pleasure that you'll want to drop whatever AAA title you're currently stuck on and really get into this -- because there's a lot to get into.
After recently adding challenges and a photo mode for free, Resogun Defenders adds two new game modes -- Protector and Commando. Both are fantastic and make the game significantly better. I admit, I've never been terribly good at Resogun, but I always enjoyed it nonetheless. With these added modes combined with challenges, I now have a desire to delve deeper and get better.
In Protector mode, you race around the map trying to rescue as many humans as possible. The fun starts when you're suddenly flooded with humans and the panic overtakes your body. Gotta catch 'em all is pretty much your goal -- as impossible as it seems at times.... read more

I try to make myself laugh first, and hope...
I try to make myself laugh first, and hope it's contagious. When I make a mistake, I'm determined to learn from it. I don't take myself too seriously, but I take others very seriously (unless they've shown they don't deserve it). I'm considerate, but not a pushover. My boss has referred to me as "a calming influence." I'd like to be with someone I can say anything to, whether it's serious or silly. Someone who will call me out when I deserve it, and force me to be a better person. Someone to go places with, literally and figuratively. And just as importantly, someone who expects the same from me. I'm a big believer in communication, so if "the silent treatment" is one of the most used weapons in your repertoire... well just stop right there. Quick bio: I grew up in a suburb of DC, went to school in Virginia, and have lived in New York since '04. I work in finance, but most of my friends don't. For fun, I play hockey and guitar, and I've gone as far as Amsterdam to see my favorite band (Muse). I've also been pretty into fitness for the past couple of years, putting on some weight (in a good way) and getting in the best shape of my life. And while I wouldn't call myself a health nut, I do try to eat my veggies. (Pizza is a vegetable, right?) Anyway, if you're into any of the above, great. If not, this is far from the whole picture. We might still get along.
Coffee and conversation , Dining out , Music and concerts , Playing sports , Travel/Sightseeing
Hockey, Inline skating, Other types of exercise, Skiing, Weights / Machines
I exercise 5 or more times per week.
Locally, The Flatiron Room, Flatiron Hall, or generally below 14th Street. Outside of NYC, my favorite trips have been to Chicago, Greece (Athens/Santorini), Amsterdam, Paris, Montreal, and Zermatt and Colorado for skiing.
James Madison University, Harrisonburg, VA
Rock music, pork products, goofy comedies (like Zoolander, Dumb and Dumber), blue, Fender Strat, skating on smooth pavement (too Sound of Music-y?).
Hockey, guitar, trivia night, stand up comedy, going places you can actually hold conversations without shouting. Recent(ish) concerts: Phantogram, Arctic Monkeys, Foster the People, Black Keys, Yeah Yeah Yeahs, Metric. Skrillex was kinda fun too.

My birdhouse post
This was so much fun to make!! There are a total of 6 birdhouses on the post.
Here is the whole she-bang, taken today. I sunk a 4/4 post into the ground, after I painted it that gorgeous red. Then I affixed a few birdhouses, some purchased, some painted and decorated myself. Glad you like it! It is certainly a topic of conversation by anyone touring my yard!
Thanks for the additional pics. Lovely! But back to Kathy's question..."What did you make the post out of?" I see it's a 4X4 but it looks textured. Did you purchase it that way? or did you doctor it up a bit? Never seen anything like it...inquiring minds want to know! :)
Now that is very cool! Lots of condo birdhouse living here! You did a great job...like the choices of birdhouses & how you decorated them...esp like the 'stone' one! Thanks for posting more pics ...that lovely swing seat & your dog. So darn cutE! Jeanne S.
Thanks for showing us the WHOLE thing!
I have a swinging chair like that-Maybe I will
put it outside since I don't have it up anywhere.
I was wondering about the texture of the post too.
about the texture...
it's just a pressure treated post. Most of the PT posts
have those marks on them. Looks almost like big staples had
been put in them
Great job! I think they do that to help the pressure treatment soak into the wood. I don't see a Bentley but the dog is cute!(lol) LOVE that cool chair!

I have been working at Magma Design
As an Engineer, Magma is a good place to work. Adequate challenges and it's a complex piece of software. Lots of scope to become a good coder.
EDA as such is not booming. So, don't expect too much growth. Fourth in the field, so there's constant pressure to perform.

"Hectic work, company small enough that you can make a difference, NO respect for employees "
- Comp & Benefits
- Work/Life Balance
- Senior Management
- Career Opportunities
I worked at Magma DesignPros
- It's small enough you can make a difference
- good career growth if you can fight you way up (small company but lots of politics)
- good pay (but bonus is pretty much not funded)
- aggressive CEO is a plus (but also a minus...)Cons
- Magma used to have an edge, now lost with the top engineers gone
- lots of work, long hours, changing target every quarter
- If you are an engineer in the US, chance is that you will be eventually outsourced to India.
- the CEO, Rajeev Madhavan, runs the company like it belongs to him. He made a lots of strategic mistake, acquiring companies w/o any business outlook, disregarding feedback from tech-savvy people, wasting a few $100M's that would have been better invested in Magma's R&D. His authority is not balanced by the board that he has in his pocket. Rajeev is a crook keeping the company afloat thanks to his "charm".
- the senior exec level's main job is to deflect issues onto their subordinates so that they can keep their well-paid jobs
- lots of layoffs, threatening environment, no ethical culture, employees treated like meat, therefore there is zero loyalty to the companyAdvice to ManagementAdvice
- replace senior execs!
- respect employees
- discounting tools will only slow down Magma's death, and hurts EDA as a whole. Innovate!
- Magms's bread-and-butter is still P&R, move the whole thing in India to cut cost
- invest in high-flying engineer talents in US and India to design innovative tools and solutionsDisapproves of CEO

Empowering your Inner Husky
To me, attending the 8th annual Husky Student Leadership Summit was one of the most valuable ways I have spent a Saturday during my time at Bloomsburg University. Notice I said the 8th annual summit? Yes, this summit has been going on for the past eight years, and as a senior I could slap myself for not becoming a part of this incredible experience sooner.

The Medical College of Wisconsin received a two-year, $420,000 grant from the National Institutes of Health's National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases to investigate the interactions between bacteria that live in the intestine and the intestinal immune system.
Nita H. Salzman, M.D., Ph.D., associate professor of pediatrics in gastroenterology and researcher at Children's Hospital of Wisconsin Research Institute, and Christopher J. Kristich, Ph.D., assistant professor of microbiology and molecular genetics, are the primary investigators of the grant.
The gastrointestinal tract is home for trillions of microbes that live in a complex and delicately balanced ecosystem known as a microbiome. Previous work by Dr. Salzman and colleagues has identified an important, highly regulated balance between this intestinal ecosystem and the immune system. Disruption of this balance by an infection or oral antibiotic administration may translate into serious disease.
This research will study the bacterium Enterococcus faecalis, which is resistant to many antibiotics and can cause serious illness in hospitalized patients when it spreads from the gastrointestinal tract. An ideal model for study, these bacteria can be used to probe bacterial- host interactions that contribute to enterococcal colonization of the gastrointestinal tract.
Understanding the mechanisms involved in the interaction between Enterococcus faecalis and the gastrointestinal tract may lead to new approaches for therapies that will prevent illness caused by these bacteria.
