You'd have to check exactly what your mobo will take, but increasing RAM is the most cost effective way to boost performance in rendering.

Tales of experimentation
- Mieke Boon
- … show all 1 hide
Usually, we think of scientific laboratories as technological environments consisting of mainly inorganic materials such as glass or metal containers, wires, electronic apparatus, technical tools, and diverse chemicals, but in many cases also living or dead organisms are used for which no technological variants exist. Harré's general aim of studying 'scenes from the living laboratory' is to show the many different ways in which living materials have been used as tools for experimenting. The book presents a broad palette of colorful stories. In all these stories, organic materials, whether alive or dead, were used as instruments for performing measurements, as apparatus with which experiments were carried out, or as sources for recovering specific ingredients used as indicators in scientific or industrial applications, and sometimes as objects of study for their own sake.
Harré distinguishes between instruments, which are all sorts of detectors and measuring devices, and apparatus, which ...

Mr. Barnitt was appointed as my counsel while I was a minor during a particularly nasty custody battle between my parents. While I was too young to appreciate him at the time, I realized later that Mr. Barnitt was invaluable in representing my interests to the court when my parents were too busy using me as a pawn in their war against each other to care much about what it was I wanted/what was best for me.
Though I'm unsure if Mr. Barnitt is still available for appointment as minor's counsel, I have no doubt that the professionalism and caring he showed during my case translates to every area of law that he now practices.
Patrick came highly recommended to me by professional friends of my father and I am really glad I have him as my attorney. My wife hired an attorney to represent "us both" and after talking to him I knew there was "No Way" Patrick cares about his clients in fact on more than a few occasions has stopped by my office to let me know whats the latest with my divorce. He is smart and professional, he has a thorough grasp of family law. I feel I'm in good hands.

Very nice hotel. Conveniently located near DFW airport. In fact, I was surprised when I opened the drapes in the morning just in time to see a huge jet fly right by our window. I was amazed at how quiet the rooms were -- you could not hear the noise from the airplanes At ALL.
The rooms were very clean and the staff was friendly and accommodating. They even let my daughter use the restaurant's microwave to pop her popcorn!
The TV did not work when we first arrived. We called the front desk and they sent someone up within 10 minutes to check on it and repair it (it turns out that it was unplugged, not at the wall which we had checked, but from the back of the TV itself like a computer monitor). The only other minor issues, which we didn't report, were that the clock in the room wasn't functional (it wouldn't allow us to correctly set the minutes), and the toilet paper holder in the bathroom was loose, so that every time it was touched, the toilet paper fell off the holder and onto the floor.
All in all, a great stay. We will stay again if/when we visit Dallas again.

Working as a nanny or other type of caregiver can be unpredictable. The parents both work late one night and then they also need you on that weekend. In a blink, you have a 55-hour work week under your belt. What if your paycheck doesn't reflect the extra hours?
If you find you're working so many hours that you aren't even being paid minimum wage, there are laws in place to prevent that. According to Stephanie Breedlove, head of Care.com HomePay, managed by Breedlove, the Fair Labor Standards Act was amended in 1974 to specifically include domestic workers. Nannies, senior care aides, housekeepers, tutors -- that's you! If you work in a home, you're entitled to minimum wage and overtime protections. Minimum wages differs by state, so make sure you know what the requirements are where you work. Check this website for minimum wages by state.
But how do you solve a paycheck issue with your employer without offending anyone? We understand how hard it is to speak up. A couple of approaches will make these tricky conversations easier. "You have to view what you are doing as a professional job and that comes first," says career coach Marilyn Edelson of OnTrack Coaching. "Being professional comes before everything else."
Here are four awkward money conversations and suggestions for solving them.
You're Working Longer Hours -- and Not Being Paid
Solution: Remember, you're not asking for anything more than you deserve. Start the discussion with your employer with this type of opener: "When I applied for this job, we talked about being paid $X for five days.But lately I've been working Y-hour days, without overtime. With the extra hours,my salary doesn't meet our state's minimum wage. Can we talk about renegotiating my salary or changing my hours?"
You're Driving the Kids -- and Need Money for Gas
Solution: If they say they only need you to do it for a week, you have the right to say no if it makes you uncomfortable, says Edelson. If they ask you to drive on a regular basis, you need to have a discussion about extra insurance coverage, gas and mileage. But if you don't want to use your car, then don't. Try saying, "I'm happy to drive the kids, but only in your vehicle. If anything happened, I would be liable."
For more information on this situation, read this article on How to Handle the Car Situation with Your Nanny �
You're Helping with Events -- Should You Get Paid?
Solution: Remember, you're a professional and your time is important. Let them know you expect to be paid more because you went over your normal 40-hour week. Bring up the event and the pay. You might say, "I'm glad I could help with the kids during the party on Saturday, but I noticed I wasn't paid overtime. Since that was beyond my normal week, I would like to clear this up."
Note: If it's a child's birthday party, and you're invited as a guest, but you still help out (because you don't really fit in the bounce house), don't expect to be paid. You're being a helpful guest.
You're Working Unpredictable Hours -- Often at the Last Minute
Solution: Busy parents often have busy work schedules, which is exactly why they need a dependable nanny like you. But you wouldn't show up late without calling, and parents should extend the same professional courtesy to you. However, if these parents need a more flexible nanny, you might not be the right fit for them. Try making it work by saying, "I enjoy taking care of your children, but I've noticed the day ending an hour or two later than we originally discussed. I know unexpected delays can happen occasionally, but I need to know when you'll be late because sometimes I have other plans. I also need to be paid for this time."
There are a couple of steps you can take to head off any future problems. Whether you're starting a new job or already a year into one, draw up a contract that specifies your expected hours, salary, holidays, benefits and overtime stipulations, suggests Edelson. "It is a lot easier to deal with things up front, instead of after the fact," she says. It also may be helpful to check out our free Nanny Tax Calculator so you can show the family you work for exactly how much you should be paid in taxes.
In the end, don't be afraid to tell your employer when something isn't working. Hopefully, you have a good relationship where you both want to make the situation work for the family. Then start keeping good records of your hours, your mileage or whatever might be in question. Create time sheets and receipts for each week. When you're underpaid, bring it up. If you're inconvenienced by repeated late hours, tell them. If you're the right caregiver, your employer should want to pay you for the time you are devoting and eliminate any possible problems.
Your Next Steps:
I hope this helps!!
Need some advice from other Nannys or from the Care.com offices. I drive over 100 miles twice a week to take my 3 nanny~kids to dance and music lessons. With auto costs/prices so high, I don't feel comfortable just charging for gas ($15/per time). Is there a proper formula I can use such as "cents per mile" that would be reasonable for this kind of work? I know the government rate varies from the 50 cent to 51.5 cents and so on, but I think that is too high to charge our Parents that we work for. PLEASE give me some much needed INPUT on this important matter. I did look for articles, etc., that would pertain to this, but found nothing.
THANKS much!
According to the Fair Labor Standards Act, the family is allowed to deduct your meal time only if it is 30 minutes or longer and you are "relieved of all duties and free to leave." This doesn't usually apply to nannies unless a parent comes back home during the nanny's lunch hour to watch the kids. If you're in a situation where your lunch time is spent in the family's home alone with the children, you must still be paid for this time even if the children are napping because you are technically still on duty.
There is no tax law forbidding you from being paid by check. Ultimately it's the family's responsibility as a household employer to be withholding and paying taxes. You should also be claiming this income on your taxes and if the family has not withheld all year, you will have to pay those taxes when you file your personal income tax return. Moving forward, the family needs to be following the IRS' payroll and tax requirements outlined in Publication 926.
What I'm more concerned about is if you're not being paid on the books, you won't have Social Security and Medicare credit being built up for retirement. You also won't have access to unemployment benefits if you are let go from the job due to no fault of your own. These benefits are very important to you and you should have access to them. I wish you the best of luck moving forward Jane and please let the family you work for know that Care.com HomePay can get the tax and payroll straightened out for both them and you.
My name is Stephanie Breedlove and I am the head of Care.com HomePay. A caregiver providing part-time or occasional care does not have to worry about taxes being withheld as long as they earn less than $1,800 during the calendar year from each family they work for. They will need to keep track of their earnings from each family though because the IRS requires all income to be reported on your income tax return. So if you earn $800, $900 and $600 doing occasional work for 3 families, you would need to report $2,300 as "Other Income" on your personal federal income tax return.
If you do earn $1,800 or more from any family you work for throughout the year, the family must withhold taxes on the entire amount of wages you earn and pay the appropriate employer taxes. That's why it's so important for both the caregiver and the family to keep track of the wages the caregiver earns. You don't want to be caught off-guard during tax season and end up doing a lot of additional work to catch up on your tax responsibilities.
And for all who have been treated badly, I feel for you. The women who interviewed with unreasonable/rude care seekers, GOOD FOR YOU for not taking the job!
Transportation is also involved when their.
What would you charge say weekly from 20-30 hours?
How much for overnight stay?
3 children.
Unfortunately the large majority of families are still paying their household employees cash. This is against the tax laws set forth by the IRS and the penalties can be very, very expensive for families who are caught paying under the table. On top of that, an employee who has no taxes withheld is not contributing to a tangible employment history or building credit toward their retirement. This means things like a home mortgage or car loan are very difficult - if not impossible to obtain. I would suggest taking a look at the following page to understand how being paid legally benefits you both in the short and long-term.
I hope you know you can explain yourself on the review page to "tell your side" For the record you are lucky you learned the mom was nuts then as apposed to after you took a job. PS I would also report the Person $3 an hour is wrong any way you want to look at it.

Thanks so much!!! Just wanted to get other nannies take...
That is correct. Families are required to upgrade to a premium membership in order to get communication features through their account. This is something that they are made aware of upon enrollment and generally it is not an issue as they move forward in their job search. Thanks for your input!
Thank you for your feedback about our pay rate ranges. They are currently listed in increments of five partly due to each state having it's own minimum wage law and we want to make sure our ranges cover all of the variations. Care.com certainly does encourage that its members comply with the law and we are sorry to hear that you do not feel this is being reflective on the site. Ultimately, you have the decision to pass on a job that does not fit your needs, which is why posting a pay rate is required.
I hope you have better luck with your job search moving forward!
I'm hoping there are great employers out there, but the rates offered for many of the jobs are completely unrealistic. Those few jobs I have applied to have not been acknowledged. It is beginning to feel like the same process of applying to office jobs on the web - sending resumes into a black hole. Can anyone advise if this is "normal", if it necessary to pay to be seen? My thanks to anyone who can provide some guidance.
This is one of the toughest things to deal with as a nanny because you have no security and no one is policing these parents on what they are responsible for when they have an employee working for them in their home. It is mind boggling to me how you want the best nanny for not only your child, but your household, and think nothing about the needs of your nanny. One thing that I will not do, is sink to your level and not do what is expected of me in your household even when you are not being fair and honoring our agreement.
I will just come back on Care.com, find another family or situation that will work for me and give you 30 days notice to find someone else. You have to let your parents know up front and throughout your relationship what is not working anymore or what needs to change. The easiest way to do this is to have a contract in place with what is important to you as the nanny such as hours, days available, hourly rate, vacation, sick days, etc.
If they don't understand that when they employ a nanny to come into their household that they have to pay you the same way as an employer pays them, then you definitely do not want to work with them. Many times they are in agreement until the situation comes up and I have had a family rewrite the contract to benefit them. Don't let it bother you because there are so many great families on here and you never have to worry about finding another if you have a great spirit about yourself and handle yourself as a professional.
It is true we are all in difficult times these days, but when you need a service, and you want it to be good, you need to pay for it.
I am with you on that one.It seems that these parents feel we owe them something. I would be ashamed to offer the wages that they are offering and expect someone to clean my house, watch my kids, and drive all over town at 3.75 a gallon for gas. Many parents care more about how well you will clean the house than about how well you will care for their children. About 2 months ago,when searching for a job I had a parent brag to me about the wonderful jobs she and her husband both have, how they dine out every Saturday evening which would give ME the opportunity to earn extra money. Because she was only offering 10.00 per hour to care for her 18 month old and drive him to classes every day with my car,do the laundry, and she made it quite clear that her previous 3 Nannies didnt wash the floors but she would expect me to. 3 Nannies and he is only 18 months old. Let me add, the entire time I was with her she got herself a coffee and never offered me one, and her child smelled. He had pooped in his diaper and after 1 1/2 hours of being in it she huffed and puffed that she had to change him, (he is your child) and when she was finally going to the ladies room to change him she wanted to know if I was coming with them. She wanted ME to change his diaper. A STRANGER. When she returned he still smelled, she never changed him. When I asked her how she would be handeling the additional cost for my insurance upgrade to cover her child, she walked out!!!!
How do these people expect anyone to live on these wages?? I truly believe that they figure that jobs are few and far between and they will use that to their advantage. What makes anyone think I should pay for the gas to tote their children all over town? I also had one family not only expect me to use my vehicle and gas, but to provide 3 CARSEATS!!!! Who has 3 car seats, again for THEIR kids???
Allison, I did find a great family and although I am not making what I am used to making, they are 1/2 mile from my house and I really love the baby. This economy has hit us hard and for those who have the money certainly arent paying for quality child care. You will find something, just don't let these people take advantage of you, let them get someone worth what they are paying, something better is right around the corner for you!
I've been a Nanny and Babysitter for a long time and in this situation you should consider a 'raise". If the Nanny is being paid say(e.g.) like $15/hr. then you and your friend(together) should consider $18-$20/hr.for both children instead of paying $15+$15=$30/hr. You do not pay separately for the childcare.Think of it as you having another baby.

Help selecting Diamond Brite pool color
We are re-surfacing the inside of our pool and I can't decide on a finish. We are using Diamond Brite. Our tile has an off white background with a blue (with a hint of green) pattern along with wine colored flowers. We want a smooth surface, so we were told not to use the Pearl color. We were also told that Oyster Quartz shows blemishes. Cool Blue we thought would be too blue for our tile since it has blue with a very small hint of green. We are worried that Aqua Blue or Marlin Blue will look too green. We are considering Ivory. Also, a pool company recommended mixing 1/2 Aqua Blue with 1/2 Cool Blue (they call the color Aqua Marine).
Does anyone have any feedback to help me?
Hello - did you ever install your Aqua Marine? Can you post a picture. I am stumped with color choice. Thanks!

This one took a bit too long to pull it off, but here it is.. As the title suggests it disables the Sense carousel animation (the quick rotation of all home screens) when you flick your finger quickly. Please don't confuse it with disabling unlock carousel animation. It is for Sense 3.0&3.5 (Evo 3D of course) and S-OFF root users, currently it should be working fine with InfectedROM Sense 3.0 & 3.5(reported compatible with several others) and also Stock 2.17. Flash the correct zip file (infecteds3 is Sense 3.0 and infecteds35 is 3.5 and stock217 is Stock 2.17) and test. You should make a nandroid backup just in case. And please, hit the thanks button after
ps: I'm a GSM user and I have no way to test this other than your feedback, so please be gentle in your comments I will update the compatibility info according to your posts.

The Northwest National Marine Renewable Energy Center (NNMREC) is a DOE-funded partnership between Oregon State University and the University of Washington.
- Oregon State University is responsible for wave energy issues.
- University of Washington is responsible for tidal energy issues.
- Both will collaborate on outreach activities and information dissemination.
NNMREC serves as an integrated, standardized test center for U.S. and international developers of wave and tidal energy. Here, device and array optimization can be tested for effective deployment of wave and tidal energy technologies, improved forecasting of the wave energy resource can be made, and studies leading to the increased reliability and survivability of marine energy systems can be realized. NNMREC also evaluates the potential ecosystem and human dimensions impacts. It focuses on the compatibility of marine energy technologies with ocean and coastal environments and coastal users.
Tidal energy activities are structured around four key areas:
- Instrumentation for cost-effective characterization of sites and devices
- Optimization of arrays with respect to device orientation and placement
- Modeling of environmental effects of extraction for both near-field and far-field
- Improved reliability and survivability of devices through use of advanced composites
Research at UW-NNMREC is supported through grants, contracts, and fellowships:
- UW-NNMREC core grant - US Department of Energy - $1.25M over 5 years (50% non-federal cost share)
- 2010 Congressionally Directed Project - US Department of Energy
- Industry-led consortia (US Department of Energy FOAs) (2009, 2010)
- National Laboratory-led consortia (US Department of Energy FOAs) (2009)
- Private donors - Martin Marine Fellowship (2010-2012)

There are relatively few outright mysteries that remain - the Higgs Boson and the effects shaping the inflation of the universe (eg. dark mater) are classic examples of our time. I suspect that eventually, we will have a coherent explanation for all observable physical phenomena - it's not over yet by a long shot, but one day we'll figure it out.
What about this one: both general relativity and quantum mechanics are remarkably accurate in their respective areas (large masses and distances for GR, small ones for QM). One would expect some generalized theory that simplifies to GR for large masses/distances, to QM for small ones, and to Newtonian mechanics for intermediate ones. However, GR and QM are fundamentally incompatible. (Hint: time as inextricable part of spacetime in the one case vs time as a parameter, space as an operator in the other.)

Forgive me Gaia for I have sinned – or rather I'm about to. This weekend I'm flying to Washington with a son – an 18th-birthday present inspired by his passion for the West Wing – and at a stroke every climate-friendly choice I've made in the last few years has been blown. No point feeling smug about driving a Toyota Pious (as my children mockingly call it). No real point either in wondering whether the solar water panels on the roof are ever likely to justify their existence or patting myself on the back for a quasi-religious devotion to recycling. I have, of course, paid the surcharge for a carbon offset, but if I'm honest I don't want to look too closely at the mechanisms of that scheme for fear of discovering that its only effectiveness is in persuading people to overcome their doubts about taking a flight in the first place. And there's absolutely no good pretending that this trip is an unavoidable necessity because it isn't. It's for fun and – beneath shifting and variable levels of guilt – I'm looking forward to it. Even the flying bit.

Louise Dean's third novel may come prettily wrapped in hearts and cupids, but a dark tale of tired marriages and shabby liaisons lies withi. Richard, sales director of a pharmaceutical company, makes his living selling psychotropic drugs to the developing world. Recolated from London to Provence, he and his French wife, Valerie, soon settle into an indolent life of boozy barbecues and late night soirees. Their new best friends, American expats, Rachel and Jeff, bring with them the promise of wife-swaps and illicit affairs. Both couples seem resigned to the fact that the Riviera is dull, and family life is "one of those things that is very bad for you but which is accepted as something nifty." Out of this group of malcontents, Richard is the most fully realised character. A serial philanderer, his frequent business trips abroad are covers for bouts of casual sex that always end up in the same "sticky mess".

Winnipeg Free Press - PRINT EDITION
Hot-weather pasta dishes can be light and cheerful
If your household is anything like mine, pasta is a regular go-to supper, an easy, economical, reliable answer to that endless "what's for dinner" question.
In the winter, when cold Sunday afternoons seem made for simmering a slow-cooked pot of Bolognese sauce, pasta is a natural. But what about in the summer, when even the thought of a spag bol is unbearably hot and heavy?
It's time to explore hot-weather pastas, cheap and cheerful dishes with light, summer-friendly ingredients. Fresh and quick, these recipes can basically be tossed together in the time it takes to boil water.
Combining basic ingredients you might already have in the pantry and fridge (olive oil, garlic, olives, capers, cheese) with a few hits of fresh produce (basil, Italian parsley, peppery arugula), these recipes don't use a lot of meat or heavy cream. The sauces are finished with a little lemon or lime juice or a zap of balsamic vinegar.
In these recipes, the sauces just coat the pasta, so it's good to use a trick many chefs swear by: Near the end of the pasta's cooking time, scoop out a cup of cooking water and set aside. Then you can add it, a bit at a time, to the sauce if the pasta seems too dry. The starchy, salty cooking water boosts flavour and helps bind the dish together.
Also, because these are quick-cook sauces, there can be a bit of a timing issue. You don't want to have drained pasta sitting around while you rush to finish the sauce. It's best to remember the golden rule of Italian pasta cooking: The sauce can wait for the noodles, but the noodles can't wait for the sauce.
This easy dish from British chef Jamie Oliver is simple but very good, with big, bold tastes. The tomato "sauce" is formed by blasting cherry tomatoes in the oven.
Pasta with Tomatoes, Olives and Basil
600-700 g (about 2 pints) cherry tomatoes
A few glugs of olive oil
Sea salt and freshly ground black pepper
A good drizzle of balsamic vinegar
500 g (1 lb) penne
200 g (about 7 oz) Kalamata olives, pitted and halved
A good handful of fresh basil, leaves picked and torn
A piece of pecorino cheese, for grating
Preheat your oven to 205 C (400 F). Throw the tomatoes into a large roasting pan, drizzle with olive oil, add salt and pepper and roast for 20 minutes. Squash tomatoes with a fork (carefully, because some will spurt) to get the juices going, and drizzle with balsamic vinegar.
Bring a large pan of salted water to a boil and cook the pasta following package instructions until al dente. Drain and add the roasted tomatoes with the olives and torn basil leaves. Season and serve with some pecorino grated over the top. Serves 4.
Tester's notes: Very tasty. There is some adorable Oliver-esque vagueness concerning quantities here, but this is a basic recipe that allows for a lot of leeway, depending on your personal taste. If you don't have pecorino on hand, you can substitute Parmesan. (Adapted from jamieoliver.com)
Lime might seem like an unusual flavour for pasta, but it adds a tart freshness to this dish from Australian food writer Donna Hay. You can toss this recipe together in about 20 minutes.
Spaghettini with Lime, Arugula and Capers
500 g (1 lb) spaghettini or vermicelli
30 ml (2 tbsp) extra-virgin olive oil, preferably a fruity variety
15 ml (1 tbsp) shredded lime rind
2 garlic cloves, finely chopped
1 red mild chili pepper, seeded and finely chopped (optional)
30 ml (2 tbsp) capers, rinsed
8 thin slices prosciutto, cut crosswise into 1.3 cm (1/2 in) pieces
140 g (about 5 oz or 4 cups lightly packed) baby arugula
45 ml (3 tbsp) freshly squeezed lime juice (from about 2 limes)
150 g (about 5 oz) soft marinated feta cheese in oil
Freshly ground pepper
Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Salt the water; add pasta and cook until al dente.
Meanwhile, heat oil in a large saucepan over medium heat. Add the lime rind, garlic, chili pepper and capers; cook until fragrant, about 1 minute. Add prosciutto, and cook until crisp, about 2 minutes. Add drained spaghettini, and toss to coat and heat through.
Toss the arugula and lime juice with the pasta, adding a little pasta water at this point if the pasta seems too dry, and pile into serving bowls. Top with feta cheese and a little of the marinating oil. Sprinkle with pepper, and serve immediately. Serves 4.
Tester's notes: I love this complex combination of hot, salty, smoky and citrus tastes. The sauce can easily be fried up while the pasta is cooking, but I do all the zesting, chopping and cutting before I start cooking the pasta. (Adapted from Donna Hay's Flavours.)
Anchovies are notoriously a love-hate thing, so this dish will be a definite yes or an absolute no. If you like the salty richness of anchovies, then this recipe is handy and economical. Bread crumbs are a staple of what the Italians call la cucina povera, adding crunch and complex flavour. It's worth making homemade bread crumbs for this dish, as the store-bought version will probably be too fine.
Spaghettini with Anchovies and Bread Crumbs
400g (14 oz) spaghettini
60 ml (4 tbsp) olive oil, divided
250 ml (1 cup) homemade bread crumbs, divided (see note)
3 cloves garlic, crushed
1 (45g) can anchovy fillets, chopped
30 ml (2 tbsp) lemon juice
125 ml (1/2 cup) chopped fresh parsley
60 g (1/2 cup) grated Parmesan cheese
In a large pot of salted boiling water, cook pasta. Near the end of the cooking time, reserve about 250 ml (1 cup) cooking water. Meanwhile, in a frying pan over medium heat, heat 15 ml (1 tbsp) olive oil, add 125 ml (1/2 cup) bread crumbs and cook for a minute or two, coating the crumbs with oil and making sure not to burn them. Reserve. In a clean pan over medium, heat remaining olive oil. Add garlic and anchovies and cook, stirring occasionally, for 2-3 minutes. Remove from heat and add lemon juice, parsley and the remaining 125 ml (1/2 cup) bread crumbs. Toss cooked, drained pasta with anchovy mixture, adding cooking water a bit at a time, if necessary, to get the desired consistency. Sprinkle with cheese and reserved bread crumbs and serve immediately. Serves 4.
Note: To make 250 ml (1 cup) homemade bread crumbs, tear about 3 slices baguette or sourdough bread into pieces. Toss lightly with about 10 ml (2 tsp) olive oil, then spread on a baking sheet and bake in a 205 C (400 F) oven for about 15-20 minutes, turning once, until nicely browned. (Watch closely to see the bread doesn't burn.) Whizz in a food processor to a crumb-like texture but don't over-process.
Tester's notes: I really like the earthy tastes of this dish. The bread crumbs add nuttiness and texture, though it takes some tinkering to get a result that is crunchy without being dry. For a saucier version you can pull a Jamie Oliver and maybe increase the lugs of olive oil and add a good slosh of reserved cooking water. Or, if you're brave, you can add another tin of anchovies!

The Jeff Palmer Project: The Move Toward Playing
Last Updated on Thursday, 28 August 2014 00:08 Wednesday, 27 August 2014 23:55
by Jeff Palmer and Jeff Sutherland
Under the guidance of Olympic View GC's CPGA Director of Instruction Jeff "Stick" Palmer, since July, 2012 iG Publisher Jeff Sutherland has been following a holistic approach to learning the golf swing based on Palmer's four main learning pillars: technique, motion, mental and spiritual. The idea is to test a 'Hank Haney Project' approach, trying it with a golfer a little closer to Rush Limbaugh than Michael Phelps in age and physical limitations. Sutherland's ultimate goal when he began was to be "able to play the courses in Scotland the way they are meant to be played."
In this ongoing series of articles, each partner in this project give their point of view on the process and results.
