Spanish TV
I don't know if this is going on all over the country...
but more and more stations are broadcasting in Spanish.
I don't mean the usual hispanic channels...it's the regular,
ordinary channels that I have been watching for over 30
I click and click and don't understand what they are
saying. Is English now the second language of choice?
In CA spanish is spoken alot and I think it is good for anyone to learn a second language. It makes it easier for traveling and understanding others.
Many schools are encouraging their students to learn one, whether it be Hispanic, Asian, or???
I use to speak it fluently, but over the years have lost that ability and am sorry. If you go to Canada, it is good to speak French. As to your answer? I have not noticed that much of an increase in this area. Many here speak Norwegian or German, because that is predominent.
I do not have cable or satellite TV, so your mileage may vary.
Using just my antenna, and using just one station as an example, my ABC affiliate station has 24.1 - regular broadcast and it is always in English; 24.2 - Telemundo, totally in Spanish; 24.3 - weather, all day every day. Both 24.1 and 24.3 have the secondary audio program in Spanish.
I'm totally unclear why anyone would think what language their children took in school would add to this particular conversation. Good for you if it made family dynamics better, but it has nothing to do with television broadcasts.
I haven't noticed any of the 'regular' channels I watch broadcasting programs in Spanish, but I have caught a couple of commercials on regular TV that were all in Spanish.
I have NO problem with Spanish being used. After all, anyone born in Puerto Rico IS an American citizen--and they deserve to have their language spoken (and written) in THEIR own country, IMO. Puerto Ricans are NOT foreigners. I do object when people who chose to immigrate to this country are unwilling to learn our language--seems that would be part of the price for moving to a different country, doesn't it?
Not every program has a SAP broadcast, so you still need to check YOUR TV settings.
Seriously, the rest of us would have noticed if the broadcasting world suddenly started broadcasting in a different language.
They haven't. It's your TV and your settings. Explore the menu.
Very rarely I see a Spanish commercial broadcast during an English show I may be watching, but it's never a whole program and the entire channel doesn't start broadcasting in Spanish. It just seems to be a fluke since it only happens maybe once a month. Have you double checked your settings as was suggested above? If you have and everything seems fine, maybe it's your cable/sat provider? You could always call to ask...
We have one all spanish station and two PBS stations. Each of the PBS stations air 3 channels and one channel per PBS station is spanish. The spanish programs are not duplicates of the english language ones. Those are separate programs.
Over the past 30 years, the hispanic population of the greater Milwaukee area has increased considerably. Some day, they will not be classed as a minority.

Repacing Fence with Shurds. Suggestions Please
We live in Dallas County Texas USDA Zone 7 where the summers are extreme and winters somewhat cold. Continuous four season weather is not always the case.
We are removing the backyard fence. We are not going to install another fence so we are seeking suggestions about what to use along our property line. Our current idea is to use some type of evergreen shrubs for a trimmed or untrimmed narrow property border. We really need suggestions since we want to get this right the first time. Please ask as many questions as needed. Trees will not be used.
About 50% of our backyard slopes downward at the approximate same angle as ours neighbors. The remainder of the back yard is a bit more complex. The other 50% of our yard is higher than the neighbors. At a certain point their property begins a steady downward slope until it levels off at approximately 5' below grade which is at the northwest rear of our property. Our northwest backyard is separated from the neighbors property by a crosstie berm.
Thank you in advance
I'd suggest you check out your shrub options at the local botanic garden there in Dallas, quite a lot of choices for Dallas, and you'll also see them at more mature sizes to get a better idea on spacing and plant preferences sun/shade and water wise.

Al Gore: 'Good for Mitt Romney!'
**Written by Doug Powers
Mitt Romney's Massachusetts health care plan has already earned plaudits from many Democrats, and now Romney's stance on global warming is getting some positive attention from Al Gore:
No doubt Al's expecting the Democrats to purchase copious amounts of carbon credits from Generation Investment Management in return for this particular kiss of death.
What's next for Romney? NARAL praising his abortion stance?

Spring or Fall?
Betty LevarMarch 12, 2012
I am new to lilies and have planted some in the fall. I was wondering do you get better results when planting in the fall than spring?
Both spring and fall planting are acceptable with good results. Aren't we lucky!! Fall planting does give one a slight jump on things--they'll flower a little sooner than a spring planted bulb of the same kind because they've settled in over winter but thats all. There are however, certain noncommercial groups that must be fall planted and Trumpet varieties that should be planted in the Spring if planted in far northern zones like 4a and 3.

Club Chairs - where to buy?
I am in the market for some neutral moderate sized club chairs (no more than 32-36x38-40) for my small living room. My taste is traditional (e.g. WS Home) but my price point is probably no more than $800 per chair. They will be for reading and entertaining and I have 3 kids.
My question is where to shop? I want to sit in them so hesitant to order online. I've looked at PB, Macys and C/B. I am in CA...any ideas?
I have a couple of sets of club chairs (one set is a modified wing back/club chair). I think you might be better off focusing on manufacturers rather than retail outlets. One set of mine is from Broyhill, the other from Rowe.
I'm in California, too--northern California. I think I bought both sets at Naturewood (in Sacramento). But you might look at some of the manufacturer sites and then use the store locators to find out who carries what you like.
The last time Ilooked, most new upholstered furniture was of a larger scale than I prefer. My solution was picking up great chairs at thrift shops and reupholstering. I found a gorgeous,tufted- back Baker club at a Goodwill for $8.00! . I am in Ca . where There are lots of reasonable Upholsterers if you only require a simple job.
Room and Board has three locations in California. They sell a lot of smaller scale pieces.
davisgard- Good point. So are you happy with your Broyhills? What about Bassett? Drexel? Ethan Allen?
I would love to troll the thrift stores to find a great reupholstery deal but frankly I don't have the time to keep checking back at those places. I have been looking on CL with no luck yet.
Going to check out Room and Board..
I am looking at club chair "style" also. I am considering chairs made by Sam Moore. They are swivel rockers and are just under six hundred and smaller scale. I cannot find any reviews however which does concern me a little and I thought buying new furniture was going to be fun!

Norway Mandates Government Use of ODF and PDF 187
from the playing-nice-with-everyone dept.
We've improved Slashdot's video section; now you can view our video interviews, product close-ups and site visits with all the usual Slashdot options to comment, share, etc. No more walled garden! It's a work in progress -- we hope you'll check it out (Learn more about the recent updates).
But her møøse once bit my sister.
We call it OS X around here.I'm a convert to "It just works!"-style Linux.
1. PDFs are much, much smaller - as AC sibling said, about the size of PS after compression
No they are bigger then compressed PS. How much bigger depends on what compression in use and what program used to generate the PostScript file. Note: Complex documents is usally smaller in uncompressed PS, if you use the right tool to generate the PS-file.
2. PDFs are relatively tamper-resistant
No. I have yet too see a PDF thats not easy to tamper with.
3. PDFs are more widely understood
Come on! PostScript files are plain text files in a very readable programming language.
4. PDFs are lighter to render
No! That depends on the program that generated the PS-file or the PDF-file.
Does it compress better or something?
Yes. For pages of pure bitonal content, the JBIG2 image compression scheme can produce files approximately 30-40x smaller than the equivalent using CCITT G4. This is such a massive improvement that it makes it tempting to simply represent all documents in raster form with ancillary text information -- in other words, it competes with vector graphics as far as side. No other widely supported potential archival format provides JBIG2. This in itself is an enormous benefit, but not quite a deal-maker for PDF.
PDF really shines in that it is easy to parse and has a limited, well-defined graphics language. The PDF/A standard even further restricts the classes of operations a conformant file can perform. On top of other things, it spells out the requirements for fonts, to ensure that documents rendered in the future will appear as intended. It also dictates that details of the document's semantic structure be embedded to assist analysis of the archived data in the future.
I probably sound like a shill for PDF, but that isn't the case. I simply write commercial code which deals with PDF. It is a terrible shame that Adobe's viewer products have made such a bad impression on everyone. I believe PDF is a well-designed, simple, extensible format with a hell of a lot going for it, if you simply discount everything with the word "Adobe" in it.
If you allow lossy compression, then all the slight variations of a letterform in your document are likely close enough that they can all
All of that said, proper PDF is PostScript. You can feed it to the PostScript interpreter and it will render. It's not full PostScript, but a subset that is easier to process and isn't a full interpretive language as PostScript is. I've wrtten programs in PostScript that have nothing to do with printing, it's a bit similar to Forth.
When I'm doing quick and dirty stuff I use PDF, but when I want real publication-quality material nothing but postscript will do the trick.
Why on earth would you do it by hand?
Automating stuff like that is what computers are designed for. Open Office even has a batch converter built in.
What features are those exactly?For example, many government employees use Excel and are using features not supported by ODF.
I'm not a free market maniac but, really, should governments mandate particular specifications like this? Seems intrusive.
Umm, first, how is that a free market issue? Second, the company producing the de facto standard is a convicted monopolist who has repeatedly undermined the free market using file formats

Mixed Winter Citrus and Avocado Salad with Cilantro and Mint
Serves: 4 to 6
These ingredients are:
Vegetarian Vegan Corn-free Dairy-free Egg-free Gluten-free Peanut-free Soy-free Tree nut-free Wheat-free
It just seems right that in the dark days of winter that citrus, with its eternal sunshine, is at its peak. I love to cook up a pot of black beans — redolent of warmer climes — and accompany them with this bright and colorful salad.
- 1 pink grapefruit Add to list
- 2 navel oranges Add to list
- 2 Cara Cara oranges Add to list
- 2 tablespoons chopped cilantro Add to list
- 1 tablespoon chopped mint Add to list
- 1 tablespoon minced green onion Add to list
- 1 tablespoon sesame oil Add to list
- Sea salt and freshly ground pepper, to taste Add to list
- Splash hot sauce, to taste Add to list
- 1 avocado, peeled and cut into 3/4-inch chunks Add to list
Cut a small slice off each end of the grapefruit and stand it upright on a cutting surface. With a knife, remove the peel from the grapefruit in strips, maintaining the curved shape. Holding the grapefruit in one hand, cut out the segments of fruit between the membranes (this is called supreming). Repeat this process with the navel oranges and the Cara Caras.
Very gently toss together all the ingredients except the avocado. Season mixture to your taste and then fold in avocado.

Dubai's very own low cost airline, FlyDubai, is all set to hit the skies soon and it appears it has taken cheap pricing to whole new level. The airline will charge passengers separately for checked-in baggage weighing up to 32 kilograms, but hand luggage will be included in the price of the ticket.
Like other budget airlines, food and drinks will be charged separately.
While food and drink is not an issue, it seems like light travelers will benefit he most from the airline. And if they hope to attract passengers away from other low-cost airlines, such as Air Arabia (which allows up to 30 kilograms checked-in baggage), FlyDubai better be charging much less than its competitors, otherwise, we are not switching.

States Patentw f y 3,409,347 y POCKET MAGNIFIER Rudolf Nagel, 1140 Laurel Ave., BridgeporLIConn. 06604 Filed Nov. 15,1965, ser. No. 507,393 "16 Claims. (cl. 35o-242) for example, imitation leather,and, because of its'ex'treme 1 flexibility when Athe relatively stiff lens unit was vin a projectedl position, it provided a very limp and unsatisfactory handle for thellens unit, making it difficult" to support it in parallel relation to the object beingl magnified, for eXarnple, a printed page. i y
Pocket magnifiers'of this type have very often been used as advertising media with advertising matter printed or impressed upon the case, Iusually upon' both sides'thereof. This not only involved separate printingA of the two sides, but, due to the` fact that the printed matter was applied to exposed surfaces of the case, it was'sbject to rapid deterioration and wear from'normal use and from abrasion as a result of being'carried in thepocket of'the user. v, f.
vAn object of the invention' is to providefan improved pocket magnifier wherein the case may 'be formed of transparent flexible plastic sheet material, and'wherein a folded cardboard stiffening liner is inserted and secured within the transparent case with the lens unit telescopically engaged between two layers of the liner. VThis arrangement not only facilitates the assembly of the magnifier, enabling the'lens unit and the liner to be simultaneously inserted in kthe case, but providesa st iffening means forthe case whereby when the lens unit is projected, the combined case and liner have sufficient stiffness to support the'extended lens unit without bending under its weight. Also, the liner in its disassembled unfolded 'state presents a singlel planar outer surface, enabling it to be imprinted with advertising matter or the like lover the entire area of such outer surface, so that, when folded and inserted in the case, the printed matter will be visible through'the transparent caseAat both sides. Furthermore, the trans-A parent case protects the printed matter from deterioration and wear. p l
A further object is to provide an improved methodl of assembling the magnifier, whereby the assembled lens unit and liner may be inserted in the case and, following such insertion, retaining means may be `applied to the case to permanently retain the liner therein and to provide stop means for interlocking engagement with the lens unit to retain it in the case and to limit its movement to projected position.
Other objects and advantages will become apparent from a consideration of the following detailed description taken in connection'with the accompanying ldrawings wherein a satisfactory embodiment of the invention.. is shown. However, it will be understood that the invention is not limited to the details disclosed but includes all such variations and modifications as fall within the spirit of the invention and the scope of the appended claims.
In the drawings:
FIG. l is a top plan view of a pocket magnifier according to the invention, the same being shown with the lens unit retracted;
Patented Nov. 5, 1968 FIIIIGl. 2 is an end elevation as seen from the right in FIG. 3' is a transverse sectional view taken along the line 3-3of FIG. 1; FIG. 4 is a top plan View showing the lens unit extended;
FIG. 5 is a plan view of the liner in unfolded position;
FIG. 6 is a top plan view of the lens unit separated from the magnifier;
FIG. 7'is a transverse sectional view, on anenlarged scale, taken' along the line 7'-7 of FIG."6; FIG. 8 is a plan view of the case separated from the magnifier and prior to assembly of the linerand lens :unit therewith;
FIG.'9`-is a perspective View on a reduced scalelshowing the parts' of the magnifier in separated relation, the jar# rows respectivelyI indicating first, the step of inserting the lens unit in the'linerand second, the step of inserting the combined' lens unit and liner in the case; i
FIG. 10 is a' perspective view showing step of providing the assembled parts with retaining means in the form of heat seal areas;
FIG. 1,1 is a top plan view of magnifier according to a 'modification of the invention in which the retaining means comprises a pair of eyelets;
FIG. 12 is a plan view of a liner according toa modified form of the invention;
FIG. 13 is a top plan view of the liner of FIG. 1'2 in foldedv assembled relation with the lens unit;
FIG. 14 is a longitudinal sectional view on an enlarged scale taken along the' line 14-14 of FIG. 13; and
FIG. 15 is a top view plan on an enlarged scale showing the liner and lens unit of FIGS. 13 and 14 assembled with the case, the dot-and-dash lines showing the extended position of the lens unit. Referring to the drawings, and particularly to FIGS. 1-10, the pocket magnifier comprises a case 10 formed of two identical superimposed layers of transparent thermoplastic sheet material, for example, polyvinyl sheet, heat sealed along one end and two sides, as at 11, and provided at its open end with thumb notches 12 to fa- Acilitate withdrawal of the lens unit, as-will hereinafter more fully appear. The liner 13 comprises two sections 14 and of identical outline integrally connected together along a centrally disposed fold line 16, the width dimension of the liner in'its folded position being such as t0 enable it to be inserted in the case with a snugpfit along its longitudinal edges, and its length dimension being such that its folded inner end is contiguous to the closed end of the case and its outerpopen end is substantially in register with the edges of the open edge of the case, each of the liner sections being provided at its outer end with a thumb notch 17 which registers with the thumb notch 12 of the case.
Additionally, the liner sections are provided at the corners of their outerends withrectangular cutouts 18, for a purpose presently to more fully appear.
The unfolded liner, as clearly seen in FIG. 5, may have both sections simultaneously imprinted with advertising matter or the like 19 and the section 15 may preferably have the notation This Side Up printed thereon, as at 19-A, for the purpose of properly orienting the magnifier when in use, as will presently more fully appear.
The lens unit 20 is formed of transparent plastic sheet material having a substantial degree of stiffness and having fresnel lens formations 21 molded into its upper surface. For proper magnification the fresnel lens formations should ybe at the upper side during use .of the magnifier. The lens unit is of rectangular outline, its width dimension being less than the width dimension of the liner and substantially corresponding to the transverse distance between the corner notches 18. At its inner end there are provided outwardly projecting Ylug adapted in the assembled relation with the liner insert to be longitudinally aligned with the notches 18. The length dimension of the lens unit is such that in its assembled and retracted position, its inner end edge will abut the fold of the liner and its outer end edge will be exposed within the thumb notches 12 and 17 of the case and liner.
The parts of the magnifier are assembled as shown in FIG. 9, the lens unit being first placed between the two layers of the folded liner and positioned with its inner edge engaged with the fold. The assembled liner and the'lens unit are then inserted in the case with the outer end edges of the liner brought into Substantially registered relation with the edges of the open end `of the case. Thereupon retaining means is provided to retain the parts in assembled relation, such retaining means being in the form of heat sealed areas 23-23 joining the two layers of the case together at the corner areas of its open end in the spaces embraced by the corner notches 18 of the liner, such heat seals being produced by suitable heat seal dies 24-*24 as seen in FIG. 10. Thus, as clearly seen in FIGS. l and 4, the retaining areas 23 fix the liner within the case lagainst longitudinal movement while permitting the lens unit to be withdrawn to the point where the lugs 22 come into abutting relation with the retaining areas 23 to limit the projected position of the lens unit.
In PIG. 11 there is shown a modified retaining means in the form of a pair of eyelets 25-25 joining the two layers of the case together within the areas defined by the notches 18 of the liner, and which function in substantially the same manner as the heat seal areas 23 to retain the liner in place and to limit projection of the lens unit. In FIGS. 12-15 there is illustrated a modified form of the invention in which the liner 13-A is generally similar to the liner 13 of the first embodiment of the invention, but does not have the corner notches 18. The two sections 14-A and 1S-A are adapted to be folded upon each other along the fold line 16-A and the section 15-A is provided with an extension fold section -B, a transverse vslot 26 being provided between them which terminates in spaced relation to each longitudinal edge where fold lines 27-27 extend from the ends of the slot to the longitudinal edges of the liner. The sections 14-A and 15-A are provided with thumb notches 17-A and the extension fold 15-B is provided with a thumb notch 28 which in the folded relation registers with thevregistered thumb notches 17-A of the sections 14-A and 15-A.
The lens unit 20 is the same as that of the first embodiment and its width dimension corresponds to the length of the slot 26, so that in the assembled relation as seen in FIGS. 13 and 14, with the extension fold 15-B folded between sections 14A and 15-A, the outer end of the lens unit projects through the slot 26 where it is exposed within the thumb notches. In this relation, the Ilug projections 22 of the lens unit are in longitudinal line with the folds 2.7-27 which serve to limit the extended position of the lens unit with respect to the liner.
The assembled liner and lens unit as seen in FIGS. 1 and 14 are inserted into the transparent case 10 as seen in FIG. 15 and the inner end of the liner is thereupon permanently secured to the case by inserting a pair of eyelets 29 through the corner areas of the case and the liner at the closed end of the case at points removed from the inner end edge of the lens unit in its retracted position. Thus, the lens unit is free to be extended to the operative position as indicated by the dot-and-dash lines, which position is limited by the abutment of lugs 22 with the folds 27 of the liner. Obviously, other suitable means may portions- 22-22 which are 4 be-employed tosecure vthe case and liner together, for example, they may be stapled together.
Having described my invention, what I claim as new and desire to secure by Letters Patent is:
1. A pocket magnifier of the character described comprising, in combinationf v (A) a generallyrectangular case formed of superimposed :upper and lower-layers closed along the longitudinal side edges and .along-one end edge of the case and open at the other end edge;
' (B).a generally rectangular liner comprising upper and lower layersfolded'one upon the other along a transverse fold line and engaged within said case with its fold line adjacent the closed end of said case; .t
(C) a generally rectangular magnifying lens unit having longitudinal side edges and inner and outer transverse end edges and disposed between said layers of said liner for retracting and projecting longitudinal movement, whereby in a retracted position said unit is concealed within said case and in a projected position is exposed beyond the open end of said case;
(D) means fixing said liner within said case while permitting the projecting and retracting movement of said lens unit through the open end of said case; and
(E) means for limiting the projecting movement of said lens unit.
2. A pocket magnifier as defined in claim 1, wherein said case is transparent and said liner is opaque.
3. A pocket magnifier'as defined in claim 1, wherein said means for fixing said liner within said case comprises secured together areas of said upper and lower layers of said case disposed at the corners thereof formed by its side edges and its open end edge, said areas being diS- posed at each side of the longitudinal side edges of said lens unit to permit projecting and retracting movement of saidflens unit, said liner having corner cutouts embracing said secured areas, and said lens unit having projections upon its side edges adjacent its inner end edge disposed in longitudinal line with said secured areas whereby said lens unit is limited in its projected position through the blocking of said projections by said secured areas.
4. A pocket magnifier as defined in claim 3, wherein said case is formed of thermoplastic sheet material and said secured areas are heat seals.
5. A pocket magnifier as defined in claim 3, wherein eyelets are engaged through said layers of said case to provide said secured areas.
6. A pocket magnifier as defined in claim 1, wherein one layer of said liner has an extension at the open end of said case folded inwardly about a transverse fold line with a slot along said fold line terminating in inwardly spaced relation to the side edges of said liner providing fold portions between the ends of said slot and the side edges of said liner, said lens unit having retracting and projecting movement through said slot, and said fold portions being in longitudinal line with said projections of said lens unit. l

I have already listened to this twice and will do it again soon.
Steve Jobs, of course
I thought Baker's performance was great.
The end of the book did make me sad eventhough I knew Steve had died.
The author did a great job getting the info for this book. Without him most of us would never know the real Steve Jobs. Thanks.
"Move Over CSI"
I could not put this down. I forgot just how good Doyle's stories are and what a cool dude Holmes was. There is also something to be learned here and that is that "good investigative work" still trumps all the para-military stuff we do today.
"Things About Islam I should Have Already Known"
The author clearly did tons of research for this book, prepared it very well, and did a good job narrating it. I was more than surprised just how little I knew about the Islam with the exception of the Mongol invasion and its earlier relation to Byzantine but my knowledge of those topics were through the eyes of western historians.
I would have liked more detail about European colonization of the Islamic world and much more about more current social issues in the Islamic world.
I do recommend this to anyone who has an interest in current events and how we go into such a mess with the entire Islamic world or just folks who like good history.
As for me, I will let this roll around in my head for 6 to 12 months this listen to it again to see what I missed.
"Harry At His Best"
This, in my opinion, is Connelly's best Bosch book. In fact, it might be his overall best. Everything seems to be much more realistic and Harry does not seem to be such an arrogant fool but he still crosses the line when he thinks it necessary.
"Meth in the Woods"
I saw the movie first then downloaded the book. Wow, the movie was good but the book is so much better. Although I have never been in that part of the US, the same type of family and drug rings can be found in Northern California where I grew up so I can identify with the book. Well written and with strange but credible characters, I would recommend this book to everyone.
"English or englisch"
How we arrived an our current language is an amazing story reflected in this book. I highly recommend this book to any and all who want to know about the evolution of our language.
"Love, Hate & Fear"
This book blew me away. I was a bit hesitant to buy it but I did because I enjoy the author's other books. This was very much a departure and in a very good way. As usual, the author seems to get lost in the details at times but later those details become very important.
"Still a wonderful story"
I thought this was a very delightful book but was surprised that I never new the original ending. Anne Hathaway did d wonderful job reading the book which added to my overall enjoyment.
For those of you who have never read the original, try this - you will not be disappointed.
I thought this would be a good story about the possible unlawful use of force by the American military in other countries and, to a large degree, it was. But, in telling the story, the author also provided an incredible picture of one of the most effective and efficient non-traditional military forces in the world - JSOC. It amazes how well they are trained, supplied, and led while, at the same time, are abused by the very government they serve.
This was one of the best books I have read about the US special operations world.
"Faith No Longer"
Great book but I am a fan of Sam Harris so I am bias. I don't think this is a book for everyone and would probably discourage the far right Christians from reading or listening to it.
"DC From an Insider's View"
I was surprised at just how well written this book was. The author was constantly entertaining and making me laugh while providing some great information. I would recommend this book to all political junkies but, be warned, when you are finished with the book Washington, politics, and journalism will have a different meaning.

44 year old woman | Hamburg, NY, USA | Seeking men 43-48 within 5 miles
Lots of love available
I'm a warm & loving woman who is looking for her best friend. To be able to share the daily news & events of your day, to the deep philosophical mysteries of life shared over a glass of wine. Maybe a fishing partner (although I'll spend more time picking flowers)? Or just someone to explore all the jewels hidden here in WNY. I've been out of the dating scene for a long time. Now it's time to jump back in & have some fun. I'm looking for a long term relationship, but realize there's a lot of 1st dates to get through before I find my "magic man". I'm not in a hurry. I have an easy personality, & can carry on a conversation with anyone. I love to cook for the ones I love, especially family. I know how to take care of a man & want to find someone who wants to have a strong, loving & honest relationship. Real men should only apply. I don't play head games & not into drama. I don't want games to be played with me either. My ideal man would be a country/outdoors man looking for a little comfort & loving in this crazy world. He would want to share his world with the best thing he could find. I could be the one to rock your world, care to find out?

Is maple syrup an odd item for police to seize? Other notable police seizures around the world
We know the police seized a 700 barrels of maple syrup in eastern Canada this week. But what are their counterparts picking up elsewhere?
|Report an Error
Share via Email
By now you're likely aware that police in New Brunswick have seized about 700 barrels of maple syrup believed to have been stolen in Quebec.
What else are police and other officials sitting on around the world? Among their finds: An underground bunker, a tarantula, three geese and one highly suspicious helicopter.
Underground bunker: Veteran Jose Del Rio of Austin, Tex., lost his home to police in 2010 because it allegedly featured a multi-level underground bunker.
Two dogs, one cat, two turtles, seven birds, four chickens, one goat, one pig, one chinchilla, three snakes, 12 aquatic animals, three geese, one duck, one kinkajou (a rainforest mammal) and one tarantula: Animal control officers took the menagerie from the home of a Maryland man who loved them, but perhaps couldn't care for them all.
A helicopter: Police in Mumbai took it in relation to a "money circulation racket."
$6 trillion in fake U.S. government bonds: Italian police swept up the papers in Switzerland earlier this year. The bills were apparently worth a third of America's national debt. Just think what Obama could have accomplished had they been real.
Really old muskets: They were among a haul of artifacts stolen from a palace of the Nawab of Bahawalpur.
What do you think that Quebec police will do will that maple syrup? Let us know on Twitter: @torontostar

Pictures of new Member's Mark/Grand Hall Grills
FYI FWIW: I got some pictures of the "next generation"
Member's Mark/Grand Hall Y0101 and Y0660 (the big/bad boy!)
You can see these at:
  http://www.komar.org/bbq/mm/news.html
P.S. I own the Y0101 and didn't like the look of the
warming rack you can optionally order (I've only seen
pictures of it) since it seems a bit small. I came across
something recently that might just work - hopefully I'll
get a chance to "Mcgyver" it and post my results before
November 15th.
Ooops ... these are pictures of the EXISTING models;
sorry 'bout that guys - Grand Hall says they can't
release any pictures of the new ones yet.
P.S. My make-shift warming rack is looking pretty good;
give me a few days to put togather the pictures and text
and I show you how to had 350+ square inches of upper
cooking surface to your Member's Mark grill! ;-)
OK - I got an Email that the pictures are now available
Sam's club's website. Rather than include a long URL that
might change, simply surf to:
  http://www.samsclub.com
and take a look under Shopping and Outdoor Cooking.
Doesn't visually look a whole lot different, but one
would not expect it to.

Did I just kill our fig tree?
We have a tree in a container, and now have no garage or shed in which to overwinter it. Not sure what kind it is - took a cutting from my grandfather's tree that may have come from Portugal. It has 2 crops a year and the figs are dark, tiny and very sweet. Whenever the weather drops below freezing, we bringit into the basement (warm) for the night. Last night it went down to 16 and we didn't realize it, so it was outside. We had it against the house wrapped in a tarp, with a blanket around the pot, but it seems like the dirt is frozen. Is there any way to save it (watering it with room temp water?) Should we leave it in the basement if it does live, despite the warm temp (can only get it to the high 50s if we close the vents) since it's so close to spring here? Thanks for any help...
That's probably a good idea. I wasn't sure about having it break dormancy so early. If I bring it inside, there's no sun in the basement, and once it leafs out, it could be too cold outside to put it back out in the sunlight. I guess I won't know if it's alive unless I bring it in, though, and we don't have much choice anyway. Either freeze outside or stay in the warm, dark basement. We just moved here, and need to build a shed.

I just finished bottling my 4th beer, an American Brown Ale. Since this has happened twice, I thought I'd some insights on why my FG likes to finish high (approx 1.020).
This was a American Brown Ale that came in at an OG of 1.056 and ended at 1.020...
A quick overview of my brewing procedure is as follows:
1.)Steep grains in full 5.75 gallons of spring H20
2.)Boil down to 5.0 gallons adding throughout & no later than last 20 minutes
3.)Hopped as normal
4.)Wort chiller to a temperature of 73 deg F
5.)Aerate by shaking for 3-5 minutes
6.)Slight over pitch of 11.5 grams Danstar Nottingham yeast in a required 9.0 gram wort
7.)Single stage fermentation in 6.5 gallon carboy with a gradual temperature increase starting at 69 deg F and slowly increasing by 5th or 6th day at 73deg F allowing for until no bubbles were present in airlock or beer surface at a minimum of 17-18 days
How much unfermentable wort can one expect using:
1.5lb Crystal 60L
0.16lb Chocolate Malt
0.16lb Roasted Barley
Could this amount of dextins cause a FG of 1.020? Haven't gone all grain yet but will love being able to control the fermentability of my wort...
That is strange. As somebody else here has said, Notty will find sugars your beer didn't even know it had. It's an attenuating monster.
One question comes to mind - do you know how old your extract was?
What temps do you steep at
With 1.5 pounds of crystal malt, and using extract for the majority of fermentables, I'm not surprised you've encountered the "1.020 curse". That's happened to me too.
Some extracts just aren't as fermentable as you'd wish. You could try using a different brand of extract, and make sure it's the "light" or "extra light" extract.
For this batch, if the FG is unchanging, I'd call it done.
Thanks a LOT guys...the extract was Briess munich and the grains were steeped at 151 deg F for 30min. You know, it tastes good, it just bothers me that my yeast aren't getting it down as I had estimated (1.014).
You could try amalyse enzyme in the fermenter. I used it with good effect on a bitter where I missed my mash temp. It dropped the FG from 1.014 to 1.008 within a week.
From the technical specs from Briess for their Munich LME:

Totems - Part 2
Another one....
Image link:
Wow! That looks like a figural bottle on top, hope it's not an antique! Very tall & thin. Hope a wide base is buried underneath & it's in a protected area so wind won't knock it over but it is really unique & I love it. (Heavy weight base is helpful on totems for those new to making them & you bury it in dirt-microwave glass plate from old microwave oven works well- on this 1 you might even place 3-4 small rocks around on the mulch to keep it upright) Animals,wind etc can knock them over) Nice work! Jan
Thanks everyone... The bottle on top I found at a garage sale - a whiskey bottle // I got that one, a green eagle and an amber owl... I tried looking to see if they were worth anything but didn't really find anything. All my totems do have a heavy base on the bottom & is planted as suggested -- these have been out for about two years (that's why they're a little dirty - need to be cleaned)... This one actually was broken by one of my yard guys & I had to add a couple of pieces to it because of how the break happened - that's why it's so tall // hope it doesn't break again, if so I'll have to make two different totems, I guess... Thanks! Lesa
