Tofu Cannoli
Tofu Cannoli
Everybody loves this classic Italian treat – and now you can convert this high-calorie favorite into a luscious dessert that's both lower in fat and good for you too!
1 pkg. firm tofu (drained and pressed to release most of the water)
1 c. confectioners sugar, sifted (plus a bit extra for garnish)
2 T. candied orange peel or 2-3 drops of orange oil* (not extract)
1/2 c. chopped semi-sweet chocolate bits (vegan, if possible)
1/4 t. ground cinnamon
6-8 prepared cannoli shells (vegan, if possible)
To prepare:
In a food processor or blender, process tofu until fairly smooth, but textured – about 15 seconds. Think of the consistency of ricotta cheese.
Add the confectioners sugar and pulse to blend, then process for another 10-15 seconds. Add orange peel or orange oil, the cinnamon, and about three tablespoons of the chopped chocolate bits. Pulse for an additional 10 seconds or just until all the ingredients are incorporated. Scrape into a bowl and set aside to chill. (The flavor of the filling improves if left to sit for at least an hour or more.)
Just before serving, fill cannoli shells with chilled tofu filling. I simply use a spoon for this. Holding filled cannoli by its middle, dip each end in the reserved chopped chocolate. When all cannoli are filled, place on a serving platter and dust with additional powdered sugar. Serve and enjoy!
I highly recommend Boyajian Citrus Oils. They're the best available, last a long time, and you can usually find them locally in speciality stores. A little goes a very long way.
Hint: you can substitute chopped pistachios for the chocolate, if you like.
Cathi's Oven-Dried Tomatoes
Cathi Dicocco's Oven-Dried Tomatoes These tomato gems are sweet, delicious, and a snap to make. Oven drying enhances the sweetness while preserving tomatoes at a time when they're abundantly in season and affordable. You can also do this with cherry tomatoes and you don't even need to scoop out the innards – Sungolds work well […]
Garlic Confit
Garlic Confit There is nothing finer or more mellow tasting than roasted garlic. And it's so easy, why not try it? Ingredients: 3-4 heads of fresh garlic, cut in half through the center, not stem to end Extra virgin olive oil A good-sized bunch of fresh thyme (lemon thyme is delicious) About 20 whole black […]
Sundried Tomato Pesto
Sundried Tomato Pesto This recipe is wonderful – very dense and delicious. The measurements are not exact, however there is no way to mess this up. Six oven dried tomatoes (see Cathi's Oven Dried Tomatoes) 1 whole bulb roasted garlic 1 clove fresh garlic, coarsely chopped 1 handful fresh basil (about 1/2 cup of leaves) […]
Cilantro Mint Pesto
Cilantro Mint Pesto Another recipe from my buddy, Cathi Dicocco, this Cilantro Mint Pesto is light and delicious, with a little hint of heat from the jalapeño and brightness from the fresh lemon. There is no need to add oil, however you may if you wish. I love this as a light summer pasta dish. […]

ROFL. I guess I'm a brewer now. My first batch went completely without a boilover or any other types of accidents. I cooked my second batch tonight and it managed to boil over. I guess I'm initiated now. heh. At least I noticed it when it was about to and dipped some out with a clean sauce pan just as it started to boil over so not much got away. I poured what I dipped out right back in too as soon as I could! No wasting beer in this house.
When the wort comes close to the top just slide it off the heat....it will subside.
I use gas, so I also just lower the heat a bit and you'll get the same results. Then slowly raise the heat until the wort can withstand the amount of heat you'll use to boil.
Thanks! I didn't think of sliding it off the heat. Seemed like it took a week and a half to come to a boil (probably 'cause I was watchin') I guess I didn't want to stop it from boiling.
A watched pot never boils and an untended one boils over...go figure.
you can always take a spray bottle with water and hit the foam as it rises
I think it's meant to happen that way! I didn't have a boil-over until my 3rd batch.
Good tip on the spray bottle!
no probs - now that's not to say that a correctly set valve isn't important either. i started noticing at what point after i achieved a rolling boil my valve was set at...marked it..and for five gallons - it remarkibly around the same setting each time. i can achieve a vigorous roling boil but still keep the foam at bay. i've also noticed that once i graduated from a 2 gallon boil to a 5.5 gallon boil it seemed easier to keep a rolling boil going without the boil over.
maybe others have same experiences <shrug>
maybe i'm just a weirdo and notice too much..'course at 6:00 am there's not much else going on besides just sitting there enjoying the morning watching the sun come up - and doing foam patrol.
Wow, this batch is bubbling away. I've got bubbles about every 3-4 seconds and the bubbels started less than 8 hours after pitching the yeast. I can't think of anything I did drastically different this batch than last except the way I cooled the wort. I'm not worried about it. Just an observation.
[Edit] Oh, and I used a whisk to aerate the wort just before pitching.....

Showtime Rotisserie is broken
I purchased the largest Showtime Rotisserie about 2 years ago. It's been used about 1 - 2 times a month since I bought it. I used it just prior to my recent move but when I tried to use it after the move, it worked for 5 minutes and then shut off on its own. It never started again.
The moving company says that I have to prove to them that the motor is not burnt out in order for them to pay to replace this one. I don't think using it for up to 2 hours about 20 times would burn out the motor.
How can I find out if the motor is burnt out or not? Is there a type of store that I can take it to for this information? I don't remember where I purchased it at and don't have the receipt for it.
We purchased ours through the TV specials. The tab that held the glass door at the bottom broke and I called Showtime. They sent me a replacement part (no charge) and I ordered other supplies through them, including the wonderful elastic ties that are used for roasting chickens. We have had ours for about 5 years. It has worked well. Why don't you try to get in touch with Showtime. You may have sent in a warranty card which would solve your problem.

six new figs, pruning for early bearing
Just got 2 gal size of following: Vista, Blue Celeste, Black Jack, Strawberry Verte, Paradiso, and Texas White Everbearing. They have 1-2 shoots each 1.5 to 4 ft long. Haven't decided on pot or outdoors in ground.
So after planting what's the best pruning strategy for earliest possible fruit? Will they bear this year? Are these good varieties for pots? Will they bear sooner in pots?
Thank you!!
The Fruitnut
Any Branch longer than 2 foot can be prunned,to 2 foot long.
Yet Hard prunning,like Jon in San Diego does,i would not advice for young trees,younger than 4.
Also in Spring when it start growing ,pinch every branch to 6 leaves or less.
Of course in pot they do produce more figs when young,but if your intention,is to grow them in ground,I would plant them in now,unless you have nematode in soil,because Texas is known for that.
If you know the soil is clean of nematode,then plant,them,if you do not know,then plant only one and in the Fall check,for them at the roots.
If clean,next year plant them all inground.
Hope this will help
Thanks H2. I'll prune to 2ft now and pinch to 6 leaves after they start growing. We don't have a nematode problem but I'll probably put them in pots in my greenhouse. This should give me the quickest fruit. Outside our season is too short and winters too cold for best figs...hard to believe in Texas but true from what I've seen.
Thanks again.

Ceiling-mounted remote controlled retractable TV mounts
Hello all: My family is in the process of building a Mediterranean style home on a beautiful water-front lake lot. I have a question for you large screen TV buffs out there. Our family room will have three walls of windows overlook this gorgeous open water view. The only remaining side is open to the kitchen. Our dilemma is that we have no wall for a large screen TV, unless we sacrifice some of the precious water view and we hesitate doing that. Have any of you seen or know of remote-controlled ceiling-mounted retractable mounts for large screen TVs? This would allow the TV to be retracted up into the ceiling when not in use by a remote control. My builder says that this is probably our only solution, and knows these mounts are "out there", but we haven't been able to find them...yet. Anyone know about these?
Here is a link to the only such device I have found. I haven't purchased it yet so I have no information on how well it works. Since it is my understanding that they are relatively expensive, I suspect the manufacturer rep can provide info on sales or customer feedback.
Here is a link that might be useful: CM2C40 Automated Flat Panel Ceiling Lift

Exactly what I wanted - very cute and great quality.
I was so excited to find this for my neice. I can't stand generic things and this is far from it... If it came in my size, I'd have bought it for me. My neice looks super fly!!!
LOVE this outfit. my daughter gets so many comments on it when she wears it. It is so boutique like. great quality!
This outfit is adorable! The pants are little longer than most 2Ts, but it has an elastic waistband that we roll over. Very comfy material. The pants are lightweight, but at least not see-through. My daughter gets compliments every single time she wears this outfit and it is one of my favorites from the Ann Loren collection.
This is a very cute and reasonable priced outfit. I would recommend this to anyone looking for a nice outfit for a great price. It was a little bit big but she loves to wear it.

Delete old tweets selectively using Python and Tweepy
For some time I've used an online service to delete tweets that are more than one week old. I do this because I use Twitter for levity, for throwaway comments and retweets on issues of the day, and I don't really want those saved for posterity. Thanks to search crawlers and caches I can never be certain that tweets are gone forever, but this is a small step in that direction.
When I joined Keybase I discovered that I needed to prevent my 'proof' tweet from being deleted, and the simple method used by the online deletion service was no longer an option. My solution uses an exception list containing the IDs of the tweets I wish to save, and these are ignored when their contemporaries are merged with the infinite.
I've written a Python script that uses Tweepy to scan the contents of my timeline and delete any tweet that meets two criteria – more than seven days old and not in my exception list. It's very simple, there are probably better ways of doing it (please let me know), but it works well for me as a nightly cron job.
Please note that since I've been deleting my old tweets this way for some time I've never had issues with the Twitter API rate limits. Every deletion is an API call, so if you have many tweets you may need to consider initially limiting the number returned via the .items() method. This is demonstrated in the Tweepy cursor tutorial.
To get the required authentication keys you will need to register a Twitter application.
import tweepy from datetime import datetime, timedelta # options test_mode = True verbose = True days_to_keep = 7 tweets_to_save = [ 573245340398170114, # the keybase proof tweet 573395137637662721, # a tweet to this very post ] # auth consumer_key = 'xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx' consumer_secret = 'xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx' access_token = 'xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx' access_token_secret = 'xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx' auth = tweepy.OAuthHandler(consumer_key, consumer_secret) auth.set_access_token(access_token, access_token_secret) print "Retrieving timeline tweets" # get all tweets api = tweepy.API(auth) timeline = tweepy.Cursor(api.user_timeline).items() # set cutoff date, use utc to match twitter cutoff_date = datetime.utcnow() - timedelta(days=days_to_keep) deletion_count = 0 ignored_count = 0 for tweet in timeline: # where tweets are not in save list and older than cutoff date if tweet.id not in tweets_to_save and tweet.created_at < cutoff_date: if verbose: print "Deleting %d: [%s] %s" % (tweet.id, tweet.created_at, tweet.text) if not test_mode: api.destroy_status(tweet.id) deletion_count += 1 else: ignored_count += 1 print "Deleted %d tweets" % (deletion_count) print "Ignored %d tweets" % (ignored_count)
Future work
Rather than maintain an exception list there might be a way to prevent tweets that the user has favourited from being deleted. If I ever want more than a handful of tweets to be saved and/or control the list from Twitter itself this would be a nice way to do it.

Great retreat at the beach!
My husband and I spent the weekend here with 4 other adults and a child. It is the perfect place to stay if a view of the beach is not essential. The house is rustic in appearance but with all the amenities that anyone needs and expects. The yard is not landscaped but consists of native vegetation. There were herons with two nests in the trees surrounding the house deck. Access to the beach is just across the street and there is a dock on the backside of the house in a little cove where you can park a boat and leave a kayak, canoe or paddle boards. Areas for fishing, clamming and crabbing are about a half mile away, or within the cove. If you want to just relax and read, the deck is a great place for this.
Fantastic rustic beach cottage
We had such a nice stay. The house is rustic and quirky, but was great for us (family of four + two grandparents). We loved the beach views off the back deck in the morning and the sound views in the evenings for sunsets. Owners are easy to reach and provide everything you need, including several surf boards, which is rare. Beach is basically deserted and beautiful. Beds were comfortable and linens decent. If you are looking for a fancy beach house, then this isn't for you. For beach lovers who stay sandy all day, this is a good value on a spectacular beach. We would definately book again.

The issue of high skill immigration is receiving increased attention as Congress considers comprehensive immigration legislation. Underlying this issue is an ongoing debate surrounding the U.S. labor market for high-skill workers, including those in science, technology, engineering and math (STEM) fields. Read more »
If these allocations hold, the United States will spend 46% more on debt service than it invests in R&D in 2015. This highlights the squeezing out of non-discretionary expenditures (i.e., investments in the core building blocks of innovation) by non-discretionary spending (i.e., mandatory expenditures such as for entitlements or debt service). Under the 2015 Budget Request, discretionary spending will decrease by 22% while non-discretionary spending rises 30% by 2024. Read more »
WASHINGTON (March 6, 2014) - The issue of high skill immigration is receiving increased attention as Congress considers comprehensive immigration legislation. Underlying this issue is an ongoing debate surrounding the U.S. labor market for high-skill workers, including those in science, technology, engineering and math (STEM) fields. The key policy questions being discussed include: is there a shortage of STEM workers in the U.S. economy; is the U.S. education system producing enough STEM graduates; and does high-skill immigration negatively affect the domestic supply of STEM talent? ITIF will host a lively debate on this critical policy issue on Wednesday, March 12 from 1:00 PM to 2:30 PM at the National Academies' Keck Building, 500 Fifth Street, NW, Room 208. Robert Atkinson, President of ITIF, and Jonathan Rothwell, an Associate Fellow at the Brookings Institution, will argue that the United States does face a STEM worker shortage, which is hampering the development of the innovation economy, and high-skill immigration should be used as a tool to address the skills gap. Hal Salzman, Professor of Planning and Public Policy at Rutgers University and Ron Hira, Associate Professor of Public Policy at Rochester Institute of Technology, will counter that the country is not experiencing a STEM shortage, and increased immigration will simply exacerbate unemployment and hurt U.S. workers. The debate will be moderated by Kevin Finneran, Editor of the National Academies' Issues in Science and Technology. The event is free, open to the public and complies with ethics rules. Register for the event.
The Information Technology and Innovation Foundation (ITIF) is a non-profit, non-partisan think tank whose mission is to formulate and promote public policies to advance technological innovation and productivity internationally, in Washington, and in the states. Recognizing the vital role of technology in ensuring prosperity, ITIF focuses on innovation, productivity, and digital economy issues. Learn more at www.itif.org.
Robert Atkinson participated in an online discussion hosted by the Urban Institute which analyzed the potential impact of President Obama's 2015 budget proposal. Atkinson argues that the proposal reduces long term investments in research and innovation and will only exacerbate competitiveness decline and economic stagnation.
Close the Innovation Deficit is an effort by leaders of the business, higher education, scientific, and high-tech manufacturing communities who are concerned about cuts and stagnating federal investments in research and higher education at a time when other nations are pouring resources into these areas.

In 1981, the federal government established the research and experimentation (R&D) tax credit. Today, with Congress considering comprehensive corporate tax reform some have argued that Congress should jettison the credit and use the savings to pay for statutory rate reduction. For example, in a recent Washington Post op-ed, noted tax economist Marty Sullivan, argued for elimination of the tax. In contrast, ITIF has argued that this would be a mistake and that the credit plays a valuable role in spurring investment in U.S. Read more »
WASHINGTON (Feb. 19, 2014) - During his campaign to become the 40th president of the United States, Ronald Reagan advocated supply-side economic policies that included tax reductions to spur economic growth. Following his election, Reagan won passage of the Economic Recovery Tax Act (ERTA) of 1981, which included the creation of the R&D tax credit, the first of its kind in the world. Yet, while America pioneered the R&D credit and saw it jump start innovation and competitiveness during its early years, the OECD now ranks the United States just 17th in R&D generosity. As Congress considers comprehensive corporate tax reforms, there are differing opinions about the value, and effectiveness, of the R&D tax credit and how it should be utilized going forward. Please join ITIF for a policy debate regarding the credit, its benefits and flaws, and its future use. The event will be held from 9 AM to 10:30 AM, Wednesday, February 26 at ITIF, 1101 K Street, NW, Suite 610A. Steven Pearlstein, Economics and Business Columnist for the Washington Post, will moderate the debate between Robert Atkinson, President of the Information Technology and Innovation Foundation (ITIF) and Martin Sullivan, Chief Economist with Tax Analysts. Atkinson will argue the credit is central to promoting American innovation, private investment and job growth and needs to be a pillar of our economic strategy. Sullivan will counter that the problem is not with the credit itself but its execution, and therefore should be eliminated. The event is free, open to the public and complies with ethics rules.
Register for the event.

Spice-Cured Turkey
- Servings: 14
Source: Martha Stewart Living, November 2001
- 4 cups coarse salt
- 5 cups sugar
- 2 carrots, peeled and cut into 1-inch pieces
- 2 stalks celery, cut into 1-inch pieces
- 2 onions, cut into 1-inch pieces
- 2 leeks, cut into 1-inch pieces and cleaned of all sand
- 3 bay leaves
- 1 head garlic, cut in half crosswise
- 2 tablespoons whole black peppercorns
- 1 tablespoon ground cumin
- 2 teaspoons crushed red-pepper flakes
- 1 teaspoon cloves
- 2 teaspoons whole allspice
- 8 cups water
- 1 (18-20 pound) organic turkey
- 1 recipe Apple-Chestnut Stuffing
- 1 recipe Spice Butter, softened
- 1/2 cup apple cider
- 3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
- 3 cups homemade or low-sodium canned chicken stock
In a large stockpot, combine salt, sugar, carrots, celery, onions, leeks, bay leaves, garlic, peppercorns, cumin, red-pepper flakes, cloves, and allspice. Add the water, and bring to a boil. Remove from heat. The brine needs to cool completely before the turkey is soaked in it: It can be made a day ahead or chilled over an ice bath.
Rinse turkey under cold water; pat dry. Place in stockpot, breast side down. Add brine and enough water to cover. Cover the stockpot, and refrigerate overnight. Remove turkey from brine; drain.
Preheat oven to 425 degrees. Fill cavities with stuffing, being careful not to pack too tightly. Secure skin over neck cavity with toothpicks or skewers, and tie legs together with kitchen twine. Rub turkey generously with spice butter, and place on a rack in a roasting pan.
Place in oven, and roast 30 minutes. Baste, rotate pan, and reduce oven temperature to 350 degrees. Continue basting every 30 to 45 minutes, until temperature taken in thickest part of the thigh registers 180 degrees. 31/2 to 4 hours. Once turkey is well browned, cover with foil, in sections, if necessary to prevent overbrowning. Remove foil for last 30 to 60 minutes, to crisp skin. Allow turkey to rest 30 minutes before carving. While turkey is resting, remove stuffing.
To make gravy, pour liquid from the roasting pan into a gravy skimmer; set aside. Place the roasting pan on the stove over medium-high heat; deglaze with A cup apple cider, using a wooden spoon to scrape up bits stuck to the pan. Set aside.
In a small saucepan, combine 3 tablespoons of reserved fat from pan and flour; cook 3 to 4 minutes, until browned. Add reserved apple-cider mixture, stock, and any separated juices from pan. Cook over medium heat until thickened. Serve.

Hands down! the best recipe ever for turkey....I have tried them all. This recipe delivers a moist and flavorful turkey. The spices can seem intimidating at first, yet the combination of seasonings delivers a subtle flavour that is unbeatable. I used a little less salt and the recipe was still fantastic.
Ashley Lombardo 17 Nov, 2013
It really is the best turkey ever. We make it exactly like the recipe: spice butter, brine, everything. The accompanying apple-chestnut stuffing recipe is the perfect counterpart.
KookingKween 23 Nov, 2011
Iam having troulbe getting the salt to disolve as it has with other brines I make - any thoughts......
Vilma Morales de Salazar 17 Dec, 2014
You shall use kitchen coarse salt, and when boiled the brine, it will dilute very easily.
Vilmucha 3 Nov, 2011
I tried first time this recipe 10 years ago, and have tried some different recipes just to change some new ideas, but I always come back to this one as THE BEST TURKEY RECIPE ever! The flavor and juices are extraordinary, and all people always rate turkey 10.
I highly recommend everyone to try and keep this recipe forever. It is always a hit! great turkey.
ladyspice 25 Nov, 2010
I made the Spice Cured Turkey for Thanksgiving. It was a big hit! Really easy to put together, and well worth the day early prep. The brine makes for a moist flavorful bird, and the spice butter imparts a really wonderful flavor and leads to a wonderfully crispy skin. I will be using this recipe again!
ChargergirlDd 27 Nov, 2009
I tried this recipe for Thanksgiving and it was the best turkey ever! So tender and tasty. Thanks Martha.

This was my very first turkey, and I loved this recipe. Easy, moist, nice subtle flavor, pretty on the outside... no fuss, great turkey. :)

coarse salt is kosher salt, you can find it at any grocery store.
lutown 13 Nov, 2009
What happens if I can't find coarse salt at the store? Is that the same thing as Seat Salt? Can I use table salt?
Vilmas 24 Nov, 2008
This recipe is truly awsome. You follow exact quantities and ingredients. I have tried several recipes from Martha, but this one is defintely a winner!!!! Try it, you will never want to try another one.

Re: Marine handheld small enough to fit in life jacket?
Kokatat (among others) makes kayaking PFDs that will nicely carry a handheld radio. The pocket in the center of this one is designed to fit most handheld radios:
Kokatat | OutFIT Tour PFD - Sea Kayaking - Activity
These are cut for kayaking, but as class III PFDs they work fine on sailboats too. Most of my "good" PFDs are kayaking ones because I was into sea kayak touring before I got into sailing.
I'm no longer participating on SailNet.

Dangerous and damning changes planned for media laws
- From: Herald Sun
- March 18, 2013
THE veil has been lifted on the dangerous and damning changes to media laws proposed by the Gillard Government.
News Ltd chief Kim Williams and other media executives meeting in Canberra have exposed what Communications Minister Stephen Conroy claims is in the public interest is, in reality, in the political interests of the Government.
There is no plainer way of stating this as the full facts of Labor's onslaught on Parliament is revealed.
Even Labor MPs have been astounded by Senator Conroy's demand that they vote on his misguided and offensive proposals before Thursday.
SevenWest television owner Kerry Stokes has described the so-called media reforms as a "sledgehammer" and its Public Interest Media Advocate as having greater powers than the Tax Commissioner.
Mr Williams says he is prepared to take the fight to the High Court and says legal principles have been "trampled on".
The Herald Sun believes the public interest commissioner would be better described as a political interest commissar. This newspaper condemns this unnecessary legislation.
Mr Williams points out that decisions cannot be appealed and the commissioner would become a servant of the government, able to release the confidential information he is given to Senator Conroy and his successors. The commissioner would be the puppet and the government would pull his strings.
Senator Conroy holds a gun to the head of Parliament and free speech is his target.

Phelps likely won't keep public attention long
LONG BEACH -- When Michael Phelps took his first strokes in the 400 IM final here last week, he was greeted with a memorable sound: silence.
Yes, he got a nice ovation when he walked to the starting block. Yes, the crowd stood and shouted as he chased and reached a new world record in his final lap. But the biggest cheers of the entire week were for Aaron Piersol when he beat Phelps and set a world record in the 200-meter backstroke. The next morning, a local headline read, "Not so fast, Phelps!"
Why is Phelps appreciated, but not adored? Why isn't Phelps cheered for what he is -- a once-in-a-lifetime swimmer?
"People talk like this is the beginning of a trend," says legendary Texas coach Eddie Reese, who coaches Peirsol and Ian Crocker. "You need to know it's not. He's really special."
Phelps' endurance and superiority is unmatched in swimming history. No other American swimmer has ever qualified for six individual events. Unless something odd happens, he will take home seven medals from Athens. Eight. He should bring home at least five golds (400 IM, 200 IM, 200 fly, 400 IM relay and 400 free relay -- assuming he's included on the team), and he has a shot at three more. That means Phelps has a legitimate chance at the greatest single Olympic Games achievement in history.
Phelps is the Secretariat of his sport. So why doesn't he have Smarty Jones' appeal? There are more than a few possible reasons for these attitudes.
And speaking of which, Phelps swims like a man possessed. So why is he saying he wants to win just one gold medal? This cannot possibly be true. Otherwise he would be as thrilled with second place in a trials final as Coughlin was when she barely lost the 100 free. Perhaps Coughlin would be happy with one gold medal, considering her past struggles with sickness and injuries. Phelps? He wants to take the sport where it's never been. He wants to be an icon of swimming. He wants to be to his generation what Mark Spitz was to Phelps' mother: a hero. He can't do that with just one gold medal. Or even four.
Phelps should embrace his role as the nation's best swimmer, and then the nation will follow. Barry Bonds might not be the most popular guy, but no one faults him for wanting to pass Hank Aaron. Lance Armstrong is the source of spite in a good part of Europe, but he fully intends to make Miguel Indurain a cycling also-ran. Nobody blames Maurice Greene for wanting his world record back, or for touting himself as the fastest man alive. And no matter what's said about Bonds, Armstrong or Greene, any right-minded sports fan would go for the record books if he or she had the talent. So should Phelps.
Michael Phelps might be cursed as the favorite, but there is nothing more compelling than unprecedented domination. In three weeks, we will see a performance we have never seen before and might never see again. That should be enough reason to watch, and maybe cheer a little.

Local perceptions of cholera and anticipated vaccine acceptance in Katanga province, Democratic Republic of Congo

5 Initiative for Vaccine Research, World Health Organization, 20, avenue Appia, 1211 Geneva 27, Switzerland
BMC Public Health 2013, 13:60 doi:10.1186/1471-2458-13-60Published: 22 January 2013
In regions where access to clean water and the provision of a sanitary infrastructure has not been sustainable, cholera continues to pose an important public health burden. Although oral cholera vaccines (OCV) are effective means to complement classical cholera control efforts, still relatively little is known about their acceptability in targeted communities. Clarification of vaccine acceptability prior to the introduction of a new vaccine provides important information for future policy and planning.
In a cross-sectional study in Katanga province, Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC), local perceptions of cholera and anticipated acceptance of an OCV were investigated. A random sample of 360 unaffected adults from a rural town and a remote fishing island was interviewed in 2010. In-depth interviews with a purposive sample of key informants and focus-group discussions provided contextual information. Socio-cultural determinants of anticipated OCV acceptance were assessed with logistic regression.
Most respondents perceived contaminated water (63%) and food (61%) as main causes of cholera. Vaccines (28%), health education (18%) and the provision of clean water (15%) were considered the most effective measures of cholera control. Anticipated vaccine acceptance reached 97% if an OCV would be provided for free. Cholera-specific knowledge of hygiene and self-help in form of praying for healing were positively associated with anticipated OCV acceptance if costs of USD 5 were assumed. Conversely, respondents who feared negative social implications of cholera were less likely to anticipate acceptance of OCVs. These fears were especially prominent among respondents who generated their income through fishing. With an increase of assumed costs to USD 10.5, fear of financial constraints was negatively associated with anticipated vaccine acceptance as well.
Results suggest a high motivation to use an OCV as long as it seems affordable. The needs of socially marginalized groups such as fishermen may have to be explicitly addressed when preparing for a mass vaccination campaign.

Duravit D-Code Bathroom Sink
About the ManufacturerThe year 2005 started promisingly with the ISH fair in Frankfurt. Duravit impressed the numerous visitors with its new products, high-class design and striking presence. The company was able to continue the growth of the previous year. Sales to third parties increased by 16.4 percent to 211.8 million euros. The German sanitaryware market is still not developing satisfactorily and German ceramics suppliers saw a drop in sales of 6.3 per cent. The German sanitaryware sector as a whole experienced a decline of between 4 and 5 per cent. While Duravit's ceramics sales were only slightly above average, in contrast to the market trend it improved overall on the German market by 4 per cent. New products and the Bathroom Furniture and Bathtubs + Wellbeing business segments, which developed even better than expected, played a significant role in this positive result. The outstanding acceptance of the complete bathroom concept was also instrumental in this success. More and more customers are impressed by the possibility of acquiring all their bathroom furniture requirements from a single source and a single manufacturer. The foreign sales quota in the Duravit Group continued to rise to 71.4 per cent. Europe remained the main focus of international activities in 2005 but there were high growth rates in Asia and non-European countries in general.

Adorable little sink!
Yolanda from Kingsville, ON– Verified Buyer
This little sink is absolutely adorable and perfect for an awkward powder room I have. Currently there is a pedestal sink however your hip hits it each time you enter and leave. This little sink is approx 8 inches deep off wall but it has a great width and adequate flat surface for a faucet and plenty of room for a soap dispenser on the other... I can't wait to install it, it will open the little powder room up!!
Business Owner
Dan from Walpole, MA– Verified Buyer
This sink fit perfectly into a very small bathroom in a rehabilitation that we are doing. Having looked at all the usual suppliers, yours was the only one small enough to work and still allow enough clearance in the small bathroom that we created in an existing space that could not be altered. We particularly like the extra space on the side that will allow placement of a small soap dispenser. With this style, it was challenging to hide the plumbing.
Works great for small space
Lynn from ZEBULON, NC– Verified Buyer
Cute and works great for a small bathroom, easy install
Just as you see
S from Maryland– Verified Buyer
This is a nice sink. It looks just as it's shown on the web site. Not too hard to install and it works well. I'm happy with it.
OUR SKU # DRV1614D-Code Bathroom Sink is also sometimes listed under the following manufacturer numbers: 07065000082, 07065000092

NEW YORK — The New York City Transit Riders Council released a report that found that many subway stations considered to be wheelchair accessible have gaps greater than three inches between the platform and the train door, according to AM New York. Riders who use wheelchairs can get stuck or are unable to board. The group called for stopping markers and more raised platforms in areas with excessive gaps. The New York Metropolitan Transportation Authority told the news outlet that agency designers are working on options to mark disabled boarding areas and that it has put funding in place to fill the gaps with higher platforms. For the full story, click here. To view the report, click here.
The Titan800 Retractor System is designed to meet the latest WC18 industry regulations, which take effect December 2015.
The Final Rule applies to public entities providing fixed route, dial-a-ride and complementary paratransit services. It establishes that an individual's disability cannot preclude a public transportation entity from providing full access to its service except where doing so would fundamentally alter the service.
Following unanimous approval by the SFMTA board in January, the SFMTA has worked tirelessly to meet the city's demand for this program. In just over one month, the SFMTA has processed more than 38,000 applications for the Free Muni program expansion.
The accusations stem from a human rights complaint by a rider who said a bus driver refused to lower the wheelchair ramp for her because she was using a walker and not a wheelchair. STM holds monthly meetings where they open the floor to citizens to ask questions directly to board members.

Arizona HRC Members Meet with Rep. Jeff Flake
August 17, 2011 by HRC staff
HRC members and supporters met with Congressman Jeff Flake (AZ-R) in his Mesa office earlier this week. At the meeting was HRC Board of Governor Kathy Young, HRC Steering Committee member Kathy Marvel, HRC members Kimberly Barnes and Russ Gunther, and supporter William Babin. In 2007 Rep. Flake surprised his caucus by voting for the Employment Non-Discrimination Act (ENDA). Last year he also voted to repeal Don't Ask, Don't Tell. In a time when you don't see many Republicans breaking from their party, Rep. Flake is willing to put his principles ahead of his party. This makes meeting with him even more vital - it's the sharing of personal stories that makes the difference.Continue Reading ►

Our special coverage of the closest race for years
Explore the personal stories of Syrian refugees in Lebanon
21 Aug 2014 16:24 GMT | Politics, Europe, Russia, Ukraine, Aid
Ukrainian border guards have started checks on a Russian truck convoy which is carrying aid earmarked for humanitarian relief in the east of the country, the border guards service has said.
"I can confirm that at 2:15pm the Ukrainian side began border-customs formalities relating to the Russian humanitarian cargo," border guard spokesman Andriy Demchenko told the Reuters news agency on Thursday.
Live Box 2014219141227163276
Asked on whose territory the cargo was, he replied: "On the territory of the Russian border point."
Two Red Cross jeeps were also seen heading to an unknown destination after passing through the rebel-held Izvaryne border post with Russia, the AP news agency said.
Russia has been hoping to send a massive aid convoy of over 200 trucks to help civilians in the hard-hit city of Luhansk, but Ukraine fears the move is a ploy to aid pro-Russian separatists who have been fighting government troops.
Ukraine has accused Russia of arming and supporting the separatists since fighting began in mid-April, a charge Russia has denied.
On Thursday, Ukraine's army said its forces in the east of the country had captured two Russian armoured vehicles with documents linking them to an elite army paratrooper unit.
"Ukrainian soldiers captured two armoured vehicles of Russia's Pskov Airbourne division in a battle near Lugansk," said security spokesman Andriy Lysenko at a briefing.
"One of the vehicles had a full set of documents, from driver's licences to military documents," he said, adding that the vehicles had been abandoned by their drivers.
Independence Day looming
Ukrainian troops have made significant advances into rebel-held territory this week in a conflict that has already claimed more than 2,000 lives and forced over 340,000 people to flee their homes.
The country celebrates Independence Day on Sunday and there are reports that the government in Kiev is aiming to achieve a breakthrough by that date.
Five troops were killed and two civilians died in the past 24 hours in rebel-held areas of eastern Ukraine as government troops pressed to recapture more territory from pro-Russian separatists.
Andriy Lysenko, spokesman for the Ukrainian National Security Council, said on Thursday that government troops were still fighting separatists in and around Ilovaysk, a town near the rebel-held city of Donetsk, even though he said Ilovaysk was under government control.

Ten minutes south of downtown Atlanta, right in the heart of historic Jonesboro, you'll find the Road to Tara Museum. This one-of-a-kind archive is dedicated to the epic masterpiece Gone With the Wind by Atlanta's favorite author, Margaret Mitchell. Housed in the 1867 train depot adjacent to the Jonesboro Welcome Center, the comprehensive gallery stocks an impressive inventory of Gone With the Wind book and movie memorabilia, including original props, costume reproductions, plate and doll collections, and a photo gallery.
»Hapeville Depot Museum
Don't go by the size of the city, Hapeville is steeped in transportation legacy. It was home to a Ford Motors plant and boasts one of the busiest airports worldwide. The Depot Museum celebrates that very heritage. Breathing new life in what was earlier the Central Of Georgia Depot, the establishment is features an impressive collection of artifacts of air, rail and automotive mediums. Historians and transportation enthusiasts are sure to enjoy the exhibitions and displays that trace the origin and evolution of the transport system.
»Teaching Museum South
This museum features displays of native Georgian history; from American Indians and colonists to more worldly events. Its sister museum, Teaching Museum North in Roswell, hosts a different range exhibits, although the two do share notable similarities. Peruse an impressive collection of American Indian artifacts, and examine the evolution of transportation in South Fulton County. There is also a very special exhibit on Anne Frank's diary. Admission is free.
»Delta Heritage Museum
The Delta Heritage Museum is located in the retired maintenance hanger that once housed all repair operations for this historic airline. Several aircraft are on display throughout the expansive floor space, three biplanes overshadowed by the last remaining and impeccably restored DC-3. The centerpiece of the exhibit, however, is the iconic "Spirit of Delta," a Boeing 767 that was purchased through employee fund raising during tough economic times. Featuring a smattering of historic aircraft and a convenient and affordable gift shop housed in the back of a plane, the Delta Heritage Museum is a perfect family outing for aviation lovers. Be advised, you must call ahead to schedule a trip as security clearance is needed to access the hangers. Contact the gift shop to schedule your visit today.
»ArtWorks on the Square
ArtWorks on the Square is a so-called "creative village" showcasing photography, painting and fine art as well as hand-crafted jewelry, pottery and sculpture by local artists. The venue also offers regular art classes and camps and rents out 19 fully-equipped studios for local artists, potters and sculptors. Additionally, ArtWorks has recently started selling art supplies for aspiring creatives. Finally, a free BYOB art event called "Vino Van Gogh" is held every second Friday of the month for those of us who have never picked up a paintbrush. Express yourself and stop here today!
»Holliday-Dorsey-Fife House Museum
This majestic antebellum house and city landmark, built in 1855, is now converted into a historic museum housing a variety of historic exhibits. Passed down through several historic Fayetteville families (which explains the multiple names), the museum features an exhibit of memorabilia from Margaret Mitchell's Gone With The Wind, a replica of the first flag made in Fayette County, relics from the Civil War and a garden of native and historically important plants! Self-guided and guided tours available.
»The Secret Spot
What used to be the East Atlanta Key shop has today metamorphosed into a secret gallery that operates from an obscure location. It showcases sculpture and art work created by amateur artists. The gallery calls itself the headquarters of people who will be called "ancestors in the future". It offers a metaphorically spiritual journey highlighting the beautiful things in life that one does not have time to notice.
»Atlanta Cyclorama & Civil War Museum
Outside the gates of Zoo Atlanta on the grounds of Grant Park stands a stark, white marble structure housing the world's largest oil painting, the Atlanta Cyclorama. Painted in 1885-1886, the Cyclorama is a 365-degree mural depicting the Battle of Atlanta. This 1864 battle helped seal the South's fate during the American Civil War. A collection of artifacts and historical documents rounds out the museum, but the focus is on the one-of-a-kind centerpiece. Guided tours are available daily.
»Ivan Allen Jr. Braves Museum & Hall of Fame
The Atlanta Braves are one of baseballs most iconic and historic teams. This museum is located on-site at Turner Field and features displays and exhibits about the team and its history. Over 600 artifacts from the Braves' history can be seen, from their start in Boston to its current standings. Any baseball fan is sure to be enthralled at this museum.
Making art accessible and affordable, and encouraging local artists, are two of DooGallery's significant visions. This small yet impressive gallery is a brainchild of owner DooG, who is an art aficionado himself along with being an enthusiastic sportsperson. The gallery is known for their fund raisers which focus on introducing newer artists to the local scene. Their works are made available to buyers at reasonable prices, which makes the place a favorite among all art lovers. The setting of the gallery itself is amazing with an adorable garden that is a perfect spot to unwind at after the show is over.
»Blue Tower Gallery
The Blue Tower Gallery is an eclectic art space known for exhibits by known as well as upcoming artists. From paintings, sculptures to film and media works are displayed here. The exhibitions are sometimes supported by live performances which makes it even more interesting.

Twice a week, this studio and gallery offers glass art classes for both beginners and advanced students, in which you can learn to make a magnificent vase or perhaps your own bubbling colored paperweight.

GM recalls some cars with problematic switches; judges others safe
DETROIT, July 17 (Reuters) - General Motors Co last month recalled millions of vehicles with three different designs of ignition switches that could accidentally turn off the engine and disable air bags in a crash. But the automaker has concluded that more than 2 million other vehicles having exactly the same switches are safe.

I bought this for my wife and would like to be able to tell her what the name of this is.
Image link:
The top part is Astrophytum myriostigma. I don't know what it is grafted on. In the spring, you could cut off the Astro, and grow it on its own roots, if you like. It likes a lot of sun, and very dry conditions.
I think it's grafted on Harrisia jusbertii.
I like it.Whatever it is!

Cheap for Venice but still well over 100 euros per night. Cean
comfortable and with lovely garden giving friendly homely feel. In a
quieter part of Venice which is a huge plus after battling through the
crowds around Rialto and St Marks square. Still only a few minutes walk
from centre so why pay more for a slightly more central location?
Receptionist didn't speak English but extremely helpful, friendly
and polite. Breakfast in garden was not the most generous but in a
delightful setting. - Anonymous
Very good attention. --- Good cleaning rooms and bathrooms. ---
Comfortable bed. --- I would stay there again. --- Very good location
although at first it's hard to get it.
Muy buena atención. --- Buena limpieza en habitaciones y baños. --- Cama confortable. --- Yo me hospedaría otra vez ahí. --- Muy buena localización aunque al principio es difícil llegar a el. - Anonymous
Location within Venice was great, less than 5 min walk to Rialto Bridge.
Room was a great size, with instantly hot shower - have heard that in
Venice you can get both a small room and bad water pressure but no
issues on this side. Staff very helpful, we got to check in early as the
room was ready and they kept our bags safe on the last day until late at
night. Also ate in the restaurant which was good food, staff here more
than helpful as the terrace flooded during high tide and they piggy

Location is perfect: quiet street on the channel verge; 15-20 min walk from railway station S.L.; 5 min walk from supermarket Billa and from Vaporetto stop.

L acceuil. - Matilde
The location of this hotel was absolutely great! Just a 40-minute ride from Venezia Santa Lucia station by vaporetto and you are in the very heart of Venice. Our room faced the inner court so it was very silent, the room was large with old fashioned furniture which gave us retro feeling - it was nice. It was a bit humid in the room but the manager turned the air conditioner on so it became warm and dry. Hairdryers are given on request but you have to give them back every morning. The bed was no - Anonymous
The location was more than excellent! It was very easy to find even for those who don't know Venice. It was very near to the main square and to the "vaporetto" stations. No more than 5 minutes on foot. Especially the staff was too helpful and polite. They were excellent. The rooms were clean, warm and comfortable. The stairs were funny. In a few word it was worth while!!!! We enjoyed our staying there. I would recommend to anyone! - Anonymous
Nice location, just besides the water bus stop.The streets in Venice are so complicated that makes you easy to get lost, but the Pensione Guerrato is very easy to find. The staff are very kind, rooms are clean. We live in the top floor and from the window there you can see the bell tower in St. Marco square. There is also a fruits market downstairs. - Anonymous
Service, service, service! I thought this hotel was a little pricey for what we got (room-wise), but the service was outstanding.
I can honestly say that the coffee & croissants they served were the BEST I've ever tasted, and that includes in Paris. The breakfast room is quite small, but they really make sure you have everything you want, from juice, coffee, toast, fruit, yogurt, etc. to fresh-baked croissants and pastries. Really felt very welcomed and appreciated as a guest.
We were g - Anonymous
I really Love this place! Wow! Although some people said the photo
doesnt look the same like in reality, trust me, my room (room number 3)
look exactly the same like in the picture. And I dont even understand
why I only pay 50 euro per night. The bathroom is spacious and clean and
new. The room looks fancy and luxurious. The place itself looks
romantic. The breakfast is nicely served. The location is very central.
And to make it perfect, the receptionist lady is very nice! - Anonymous
Excellente situation, très calme, spatieux et confortable. Accueil excellent du responsable. - Isabelle
the location near everything and close to the waterbus stop;
the great friendliness and professionalism of all reception staff members, whom seemed more to be like entrepreneurial friends/colleagues of each other rather than employees;
the breakfast;
the room comfort (with airco);
the beauty of the façade and the little terrace - Anonymous
L'hôtel est fermé mais son exploitation est reprise par un hôtelproche (explications sur la porte de l'hôtel San Samuele). Aucunproblème à signaler. - Eric
Lived three hotels in Venice and was staying here for 3 nights. This is the one that I like most. It's like a family hotel with a garden inside and beautiful shared living room just near the river; room is clean and quiet; the price seems economical; and the stuff are very very friendly and approaching who helped me a lot, (like introduce the way around, how to get to train station, where is the convenient store nearby, how to set the safe box and access to the wifi, etc, etc...)

The Space
The Hungry Tortuga is an historic two-level home with separate upstairs and downstairs living and sleeping areas, accessible by an exterior staircase.
The lower level is the entrance level. The front door is just one step up from the patio and opens into the kitchen. The kitchen has been recently remodeled with new appliances (no dishwasher), custom cabinets and a large bar counter with bar stools. The kitchen is open to the living room, with flat screen TV, and dining area, table seats 6, bar counter seats 2. Off the living/dining area is a bedroom with a queen bed. Off the living/dining area the opposite direction is a short hallway with a full bathroom, supply closet, and back door (the quickest way from the downstairs to the upstairs).
Exterior stairs lead from the lower level to the upper level. The upstairs, with its steeply pointed open-beam ceiling and small adjacent rooms, feels like a clubhouse or secret fort. While an unusual space, it has undeniable charm and a relaxing vibe. Since there are no doors, just curtains, separating the sleeping areas, this is a casual sleeping arrangement. Guests with kids or groups of friends will be pleased by the number of beds. There is a double futon in the living area, with its loungey style and flat screen TV, a queen bed in the side bedroom, and a twin bed and a twin day bed located in a little nook off the back of the living space. The upstairs also has a full bathroom.
The main outdoor living area is the front patio, with outdoor dining for 8, a charcoal BBQ, a hammock, additional seating and a fire pit. There is a good mix of sun and shade, with sun in the morning and shade provided by the large redwood tree in the afternoon. The Hungry Tortuga is a fully-fenced property in the historic neighborhood of Villa Grande. The back side of the property runs adjacent to the path to the Villa Grande Beach, one of the nicest beaches on the Russian River. Path access is just one door down.

The Neighborhood
The Hungry Tortuga is situated in the tiny hamlet of Villa Grande, within the town of Monte Rio. The home is a super short walk to the river; there is a path to Villa Grande Beach located just one house down to the right.
The town of Monte Rio offers small town charm and amenities, including a dog-friendly public beach, a small independently owned grocery store, an historic quonset hut movie theater and cafe with nightly showings of first-run movies. It is a short drive to the Northwood Golf Course, and a scenic 15 minute drive to the coast.
Getting around
Most visitors to this area get around by car, but many visitors enjoy exploring the area by bicycle. Sonoma County Transit provides limited bus service and there are two taxi companies that service the area.

Wallace showing improvement in Truck Series
Darrell Wallace Jr. was the first black driver to win a NASCAR race since the 1960s when he took the checkered flag in a Truck Series race at Martinsville last year.
The 20-year-old Wallace, who goes by Bubba, has openly talked of becoming the Tiger Woods of NASCAR — the great black star who can transcend the sport and prove people of all colors can race.
He rebounded from a crash in the season-opening Truck race at Daytona to finish second at Martinsville last month.
"We're trying to carry that momentum from Martinsville on to Kansas, so it's a little tough," Wallace said. "But I'm trying to have fun as much as I can, getting in and out of the shop as much as I can, checking on the progress of all the trucks that are being built."
Wallace drives the No. 54 Toyota for Kyle Busch Motorsports, which has perks. He can learn from one of the best drivers across all three NASCAR series. But the drawback is that Busch usually dominates when he jumps down to the Truck Series. Busch won five times last season, has one win this year and 36 in his career.
"The most frustrating thing about last year is looking back at how many races we were faster than Kyle," Wallace said. "Every race it seemed like we wrecked out, he would win. So there were a couple of races that we should have had on our win list. But that's just part of the rookie blues and the rookie stripes. So I definitely know what I have to do now this year and use that as motivation to go out there and perform better. I'm using our motto. It's just better every finish from last year."
NASCAR has initiated several pushes toward boosting the number of minorities in the sport. There's a Drive for Diversity program that paid some dividends with Wallace and Kyle Larson after struggling to find racers for the top series. The program is 11 years old and was designed to attract minorities and women to the sport in all fields, from the track to the front office. He was also part of NASCAR's "Next" class of up-and-coming drivers.
"You get to do so many things that you didn't think you'd be able to do," Wallace said. "It's just a lot of fun to be able to race with your peers and be along with them. And at such a young age group, you get to have a lot of fun."
LIVE QUALIFYING: Live, from Talladega, it's NASCAR qualifying on network TV.
The May 3 NASCAR Sprint Cup knockout qualifying session from Talladega Superspeedway will be aired on Fox — believed to be the first time the session will be televised live on network TV other than the Daytona 500.
"This move is a direct result of the double-digit ratings gains NASCAR's new knockout qualifying format is delivering every weekend," said Bill Wanger, executive vice president of programming, research & content strategy. "We are thrilled to be able to highlight this new format on Fox, and what more exciting place to do that than Talladega Superspeedway."
