Cold Tolerant Heirlooms
Does anyone know of any cold tolerant heirloom tomato varieties. It does'nt matter what type of tomato, just cold tolernt and heirloom. Thanks
Any of the so-called "early" varieties are considered cold tolerant - within reason of course. Stupice, Bloody Butcher, Matina, Glacier, Manitoba, just to name a few. Most seed vendors list the early varieties in a separate category so they are easy to find. TGS list about 30 of them for example.
Many will have a "cold" sounding part of their name using words like "polar", "siberian", "sub-artic" etc. but not all are open polinated varieties.
Hope this helps.
Try the varities from Russia, Germany and Canada.
I have Siberia, Moskvich, Anna Russian, Stupice,Uralskiy Ranniy and Manitoba to name a few.
There are many more early season varities/cold tolerant.
Also I have Tiny Tim, Extreme Bush,Rutgers which are early types.
Sub-Artic Plenty is supposed to be the earliest at 45 days. Then there are some named Polar...
Good luck with what you find and if you want to trade give me a shout. rfiore06 at yahoo dot com
Black Krim is my very favorite heirloom, and it's Russian (so, cool tolerant; I hate the term cold tolerant since it's misleading when applied to a tomato). I am also in Z6, but in NY, and I have great success growing it!
Interesting. At 80 to 90 days DTM I would never have considered Black Krim as either an early or cold tolerant.
Erlyberd is right in suggesting varieties from cold regions. My husband's family came from Minsk and Pinsk and to celebrate his heritage one year I winter sowed mostly Russian and Eastern Europeans varieties and sure enough, the ones from USSR, and particularly Siberia were the first to sprout.
I've also done several GRIN accessions from other cold climates or areas with mountainous growing regions and they too have been early sprouters in cold soil, it's very fascinating. Look for short DTMs, like 70 days or less.
Black Krim and most other so called black varieties are from the Crimean region of the former USSR now called the CIS( Commonwealth of Independent states) and palm trees line the streets in Yalta, the former capital of the Crimean region. An area not known for cold hardy varieties and actually many Siberian varieties are not cold tolerant either as we found out when Bill McDorman of Seeds Trust/High Altitude seeds first brought many varieties in the early 90's when Siberia first became open to outsiders.
Another idea is to look at the short season varieties specifically listed by two seed sellers in Canada.
One is Jeff Casey who lists early short season varieties seperately, aas well as many other great varieties and you can find him at;
And the other is Tatiana who with her husband immigrated from Russia to Canada and she, as does Jeff above, lists earlies separately if you look at the links on her home page, and she features lots of earlies from the CIS. And she also has a data base for about 2000 varieties so you can look up lots of different varieties you want to know more about and she also gives seed sources for those varieties. And Tania sells seeds as well.
I've linked to her site below.
Here is a link that might be useful: Tatiana's Tomatobase
It was a succesful enticement to get him to love heirlooms. He is now an ex tomato-hater, he thought they all tasted like the four-pack of "red rocks" that the supermarket sells. He liked cherries better, and the year before I had grown the Russians, I grew Chadwicks and Black Cherry so with those he knew the difference between homegrown and storebought. It took a while but he started eating more home-grown tomatoes. Four years back I just about had to drag him to MAGTAG but he came and actually had a wonderful time. Now he likes maters much more. Sadly, he can't eat too many because they sometimes irritate his IBS, so he eats them with caution ;-)
I haven't grown many of the earlies but I did grow plenty of sub artic plenty as I didn't want to wait for maters.LOL they were the first in my garden and lasted the longest when I finally pulled them up I still had cherry size fruit frozen solid.I found the tend to get slightly smaller towards the end.I'm going to grow them again this year maybe half as many plants though.
I have seeds of Skorospelka, which i'm assuming is Russian, it is very similar to Stupice, fruit size and habit-wise, but is even earlier and has bright green shoulders. Dunno if it's "heirloom" but it sets in cold weather.You're welcome to some seeds, e me.
I like Siletz, early and will set fruit even in 55 degree weather. It's "cousin," Legend is not considered an heirloom but has been grown for 35+ years. Both determinates, they produce 4-6 ounce tomatoes, a bit on the sweet side, nearly seedless and 55 DTM. However, I was still getting a few ripe toms in October, even though they were transplanted in the middle of May.
with last years weather the weren't as good as the last years but still an ok little tomato for salads etc my plants gave me way more than ever needed.Not the greatest tasting tomato but give a few plants a try again this year and see what you think.

Malaysia Releases Genetically Modified Mosquitoes 140
from the look-what-you've-done-gates 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).
These bloodsuckers have been altered to have shorter lifespans.
Actually the modified Aedes aegypti in question are not bloodsuckers. From the AFP article:
In the first experiment of its kind in Asia, about 6,000 male Aedes aegypti mosquitoes were released
Like Homo sapiens, only the females drain the life out of their victims. The male Aedes aegypti only feed on plant juices (but I'm guessing pass the short lifespan trait on more effectively).
Moderators, ball's in your court.
Fortunately, mosquitoes don't have bank accounts.
We know how this ends, a group of genetically enhanced mosquitos will break into the Malaysian laboratory leaving a trail of bodies while being pursued by Rick "The Flyswatter" Deckard.
"I've seen things you people wouldn't believe... sweaty white skin on the shoulder of a tourist... I watched bug lights glitter in the darkness at the Tannhauser Gate..."
you should hope the moderators are male
Wait, are you saying females are too hot-headed, insecure, and vindictive to acknowledge their succubus-like traits?

Basketball during Jim Crow
in History
Scott Ellsworth will talk about this book The Secret Game, about a basketball game played between black and white college students in Jim Crow North Carolina in the fourties.
in Motivation
Notions of race are created to justify slavery because once you point out differences in people, it is easier to start judging and ranking them; positioning some races as more superior than others. One way this has been demonstrated in America is during the time of Jim Crow Laws. By this time slavery had been abolished but this was a new type of slavery. These laws limited certain freedoms and separated and ranked citizens solely based on race. Some of these limited freedoms included separate eating areas, separate drinking fountains, and separate bathrooms. Jim Crow laws were eventually abolished but this slavery idea still exists today but more through socially constructed laws versus U.S. laws. Examples of this include the war on drugs and the multiple cases of cops treating people unfairly based on the color of their skin.
Several racial bribes representative of Jim Crow Laws that exist in America today include the mass imprisonment of more people of color than white people, the war on drugs, and discrimination. As Alexander points out in her book, The New Jim Crow, mass imprisonment started back during the Civil Rights Movement when people of color would do legal acts, such as protesting, they would be viewed and handled as criminal acts. The rise in crime rates was also linked not to any other social and economic factor but only to the African American unemployment rates and the Civil Rights Movement. This type of thinking was lead by the conservatives to secretly find ways to maintain white supremacy in America. This crime was also what sparked the war on drugs, which increased the surveillance and severity of punishment for possession or the selling of drugs. Drugs and crime in areas of poverty where there was a great African American population and by cracking down on drugs they could arrest and charge more people of color. Lastly, discrimination is still seen today in jobs, income, living situations, care, and education.
Mr Jim Crow
in Politics
Election officials in 27 states, most of them Republicans, have launched a program that threatens a massive purge of voters from the rolls. Millions, especially black, Hispanic and Asian-American voters, are at risk. At the heart of this voter-roll scrub is the Interstate Crosscheck program, which has generated a master list of nearly 7 million names.Crosscheck list of suspected double voters has been compiled by matching names from roughly 110 million voter records from participating states.The three states' lists are heavily weighted with names such as Jackson, Garcia, Patel and Kim — ones common among minorities, who vote overwhelmingly Democratic. Indeed, fully 1 in 7 African-Americans in those 27 states."It's Jim Crow all over again," says the Rev. Joseph Lowery, who cofounded the Southern Christian Leadership Conference with Martin Luther King Jr Al Jazeera America.
The New Jim Crow: Law Illiteracy
in Real Estate
The new Jim Crow has nothing to do with "race" or the "sex" of a person...........the new Jim Crow to a very high degree is "Law Illiteracy". Today on "It's My House" we shall discuss how being illiterate in "basic law" can lead to many problems including incarseration, evictions, forclosure, divorces, etc. etc.
Education is power and we shall give people the basics on what they need to do to empower themselves to reverse any negative situation that they may be involved in.

The Same Old Jim Crow Mass Incarceration Police Murders...,
in History
Is there a New Jim Crow or is it the same old Jim Crow? This show will discuss the issue of Mass Incarcaration and the Murder of Black and Brown Males by Law Enforcement.
The incarceration rates disproportionately impact men of color: 1 in every 15 African American men and 1 in every 36 Hispanic men are incarcerated in comparison to 1 in every 106 white men. 2. According to the Bureau of Justice Statistics, one in three black men can expect to go to prison in their lifetime.
Does that mean White Males committ less crime? Statistically White Males are the most likely to commit rape, Mass Murder, Spree Killings, and Serial Killings. The average White Serial Killer is allowed to repeatedly commit crimes such as rape and murder before being, "Profiled." By the time they became sloopy they are old and have repeatedly killed over a span of years. With African American Males they are Profiled before every committing a crime. Often they are shot and killed by Police on, "Suspicion" of a crime such as Robbery.
This past week a white male, Eric Frein who shot two deputies, killing one was captured in Pennsylvania alive. Had that been a black male they would have went into his neighborhood and anywhere his relatives lived. They would have harrassed every relative he had and arrested them, and any black mail who fit the, "Profile."
We have a call in guest, Isabelle Gravenstein. She is working with a young man who has been sentenced to 20 years to life for a crime he did not commit. This is a similar issue to my son Kerry Baxter Senior who is serving 66 years to life for a crime he did not commit. The cold part is they know these men are innocent but any old Black Man Will Do! The Same Old Jim Crow!

The New Jim Crow RadioBlog, Episode 1: Introduction
in Books
Many members and friends of Unitarian Universalist congregations are reading The New Jim Crow: Mass Incarceration in the Age of Colorblindness by Michelle Alexander, the current Common Read of the Unitarian Universalist Association. Over the course of eight episodes, this radioblog is a chapter-by-chapter exploration of the themes of the book, from the perspectives of scholars, actvists, lawyers and people of faith grappling with Alexander's central message: "By targeting black men through the War on Drugs and decimating communities of color, the U.S. criminal justice system functions as a contemporary system of racial control -- relegating milions to permanent second-class status -- even as it formally adheres to the principle of colorblindness."
The hosts for the New Jim Crow Radioblog are Carlton Elliott Smith, one of the ministers of the Unitarian Universalist Church of Arlington (VA), and Alex Boston, one of its members.
The New Jim Crow RadioBlog is brought to you by the Unitarian Universalist Church of Arlington (VA), Davies Memorial Unitarian Universalist Church (Camp Springs, MD), Accotink Unitarian Universalist Church (Burke, VA), All Souls Church, Unitarian (Wash., DC), and the First Unitarian Church of Baltimore.

New to Typophile? Accounts are free, and easy to set up.
I didn't had any jobs this afternoon so I thought I would be giving a try at FontStruct. This is what I came with and I'm quite happy, but I would love to hear your comments about it. I'm making it freely available at Daxion font at FontStruct and you can use it for commercial projects if you find its 178 characters suitable.
I hope you like it, cheers!
Dang, that's pretty complete for a fontstruct typeface. Nice job! I have like three incomplete typefaces sitting around there, I should finish them up...
LOL magic thread, actually this was one of the two incompletes I had, and it was a completely different thing :D thankfully it turned out ok.
I appreciate the aesthetic very much. Can't believe you have ligatures in there. 0.o great job. the grey value is fragmented, but that's what makes it unique, we can't all think like Mr.Frutiger does.

Palermo, March 2015
Dear Colleague,
On behalf of Italy's chemical community we warmly welcome you to Palermo for the "FineCat 2015 - Symposium on heterogeneous catalysis for fine chemicals", that will be hosted in the Sala delle Capriate of the Steri Palace, hall of Palermo's University Rectorate, on the morning of April 8th and 9th.
Featuring the plenary lectures of eminent chemists Manfred Reetz, Irina Beletskaya, Pedro Maireles Torres, Oliver Kappe and Rodrigo de Souza, and dedicated to the memory of University of Palermo's Professor Roberto Triolo, the 4th edition of the FineCat Symposium aims o provide a new, high-level learning and networking opportunity amongst researchers working at the development of solid catalysts for the clean and economically viable production of fine chemicals.
To cite only a few selected topics, the scientific program highlights exciting innovation in fields as important as the directed evolution of enantioselective enzymes, the low cost manufacturing of medicines for developing countries, catalysis via new encapsulated chiral nanoparticles and new visible-light photocatalysts, and a unified view of heterogeneous catalysis for the oleochemical platform.
The other contributions are no less impressive. May we thus kindly recommend timely attendance of all sessions of the tightly scheduled scientific program.
The beauty of the Symposium's venue, the social program, and the surrounding 2,700 years old city of Palermo will hopefully contribute towards a better conference experience.
Enjoy the meeting and your stay!

Research in heterogeneous catalysis for fine chemicals synthesis, preparative chemistry and drugs discovery, is flourishing; as heterogeneous catalysis emerges as the valuable tool in making the fine chemicals industry environmentally and economically more sustainable. Fine chemicals -- polyfunctional molecules with specific properties imparting them high added value -- indeed, in most cases are in synthesized via highly selective homogeneous synthetic methods.
Ten years after the highlight paper in Science of Cole-Hamilton in which David lamented that no heterogenized homogeneous catalysts was known to have found practical application, some of the Symposium organizers described in OPRD a number of new industrial processes that use efficient and highly selective solid mediators.
New solid catalysts can not only be easily separated, recovered, and recycled; but also effectively applied to continuous chemical syntheses carried out under flow, thereby opening the route to clean, efficient chemical synthesis both on the lab and on industrial scale.
In the meanwhile, too, biomass feedstock is emerging to replace raw materials of petrochemical origin, thereby closing the materials cycle that makes processes truly sustainable.
Research presented at FineCat 2015 will hopefully further advance this progress.

For the second consecutive year, Port Everglades has received the 'Editor-In-Chief Award' award from Porthole Cruise Magazine as the best departure port in the country.
Porthole's 2014 Editor-in-Chief Awards are presented to companies in the cruise and travel industry that have gone above and beyond in terms of service, quality, and excellence. The awards are featured in the February 2014 issue of Porthole Cruise Magazine, and online.
"We are truly honored that Porthole has again chosen Port Everglades for this prestigious award," said Port Everglades Chief Executive & Port Director Steven Cernak. "The $54 million investment to expand and update four cruise terminals and our upcoming renovation project for Cruise Terminal 4 reflects Port Everglades' commitment to our cruise line partners, cruise guests and the future of the cruise industry."
"With so many amazing options that await cruisers, these awards give kudos to those who go above and beyond in terms of service, quality and memorable moments," said Porthole Cruise Magazine's Editor-in-Chief Bill Panoff. "Port Everglades is a favorite with Porthole readers and savvy travelers. I've always had a great experience there."

"Very interesting!"
I teach American college students in Italy occasionally and this has been a great resource in learning to understand Italy. This is a serious biography that provides a reasonably balanced view of Mussolini. He wasn't a clown or a monster, but a deeply troubled man who did very bad things to Italy. Ridley is convincing that his biggest character flaw was wanting to choose winners -- and his biggest mistake, of course, was betting that Hitler was a winner.
I love Nadia May as a reader . . . but the book is the point!
"strongly recommended"
Great book, FINE voice! David Case sounds just as I'd like a Lord Peter narrator to sound -- and does women's voices nicely, too. I will certainly listen to more of his readings (especially if he read others by Sayer!!).
"Very good voices..."
I don't usually listen to abridged versions, but I have to admit that the pacing in this one was very quick and 'thrilling' -- and Kate Burton has a great voice for Bennie Rosato. She did a good job with the French and German speakers as well; I would certainly listen to more she narrates.
"All wrong..."
I'm a big fan of Jonathan Kellerman and his Alex Delaware mysteries. This is the first audio version that I've listened to. I must say that after having read all his works up to Therapy and then listening to John Rubenstein; the narration is all wrong. These are west coast characters and, if my memory serves me correctly, Milo is originally from the midwest. To have every character speaking with a strong Brooklyn accent takes away significantly from the story. While the story line is typical Kellerman (in a good way), I had a hard time getting beyond the bad voices.

Gautam Dutta: Rather than engage in discussion and debate, many politicians find it easier to demonize their opponents, rather than debate the issues.
Why Guatemalans, Mexicans and other Latin Americans are coming to the United States and the poor are becoming poorer in their countries.
Progressive Media Advocates
By Gautam Dutta
Carole Bartolotto: The problem with concluding that GMOs are safe is that the argument for their safety rests solely on animal studies. These studies are offered as evidence that the debate over GMOs is over. Nothing could be further from the truth.
Margo McCall: There's increasing evidence that adopting a plant-based diet is better for human health, the planet, and of course for the more than 9 billion animals that are killed for consumption each year in the U.S alone.
Joe Mathews: Thanks to Xi Jinping, Chinese millionaires have propped up the state's sagging real estate market, universities, and companies.

Background: We sought to determine patterns of hospitalizations for inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) to centers that regularly admit high volumes of IBD patients and whether they impacted health outcomes.
Methods: We queried US hospital discharges in the Nationwide Inpatient Sample to identify admissions with a primary diagnosis of Crohn's disease (CD) or ulcerative colitis (UC) between 1998 and 2004. We determined patterns and predictors of hospitalization at high IBD volume admission centers (HIVACs) (≥145 IBD admissions annually) and assessed their impact on mortality.
Results: Over 7 years the proportion of patients admitted to HIVACs increased from 2.3% to 14.8%. IBD patients were less likely to be admitted to an HIVAC if they were insured by Medicare (odds ratio [OR] 0.74; 95% confidence interval [CI]: 0.65–0.83) or Medicaid (OR 0.71; 95% CI: 0.60–0.84), or were uninsured (OR 0.42; 95% CI: 0.30–0.58) compared with those privately insured. Neighborhood income above the national median favored admission to an HIVAC (OR 1.99; 95% CI: 1.46–2.71). In-hospital mortality was lower among HIVACs compared to non-HIVACs (3.5/1000 versus 7.2/1000, P < 0.0001) and was persistent after adjustment for surgery status, age, comorbidity, and health insurance (OR 0.65; 95% CI: 0.49–0.87). When stratified by diagnosis, mortality was reduced at HIVACs among CD (OR 0.58; 95% CI: 0.37–0.90) but not UC admissions.
Conclusions: There is a rising trend in hospitalizations for IBD at HIVACs, which confers mortality benefit for those with CD. Prospective studies are warranted to further explore the impact of these high-volume centers on IBD health outcomes.

A British man returning home from the U.S. was stopped at London Heathrow with more than 200 firecrackers in his bag, though he says he carried them through two U.S. airports without thinking -- and without any questions. Paul Jones says he bought the fireworks in Wichita, Kan., carried them through airport screening there, then connected in Houston for his Continental Airlines flight back to the U.K. Continental said passenger screening is the responsibility of the TSA, but that passengers are warned "on our website about hazardous materials which are prohibited on aircraft under federal law, and the list includes fireworks."

Thank you for all your replies.
I agree with the everything open and share everything idea and I know everyone needs to be kept in the loop with anything pertinant to the relationship(s).
I think though that there is a lot of comfort in venting to someone else and that it can often make someone feel better instantly, or see things in a more simplified verbalized form that makes it less of a big deal, if that happens, then why run to the other and make them worry that something is wrong?
There had been a bit of discussion on this between myself and A as well as myself and B (I emailed C on my f-up to give them a heads up, but haven't really discussed it yet).
What I have decided is to refrain from sharing what has been said to me in private conversations, if I think someone else needs to hear it I will either say the two of them need to talk, or we need to have a group talk.
I get misunderstood easily (especially by A and C) and cannot remember most conversations in detail, I therefore believe that more times than not, turning around telling someone something someone else told me will just do more harm than good and put a chip in not only thier relationship but also my relationship with each of them.
I trust everyone in the group to talk to others when they have a problem instead of letting it fester and build, if they do not, then I think we deserve whatever blow-up comes out of that.
I may have time here today to post my nice little (haha) confusing story for all interested in the indroductions section!!
Thanks again and I look forward to chatting with you all more.

We have many prestigious scholars who are also good teachers - a rare combination. Class sizes range from large lectures (which you sometimes want) to many smaller seminars (only 12-15 students). Of course there are some duds, but you can pretty much avoid them, because we have open access to class evaluations. Professors are on the whole available and willing to answer questions or just talk about life and career choices. Definitely a good mix of theory-type and practical-type classes, with a fair amount of clinic opportunities. If research is your thing, many opportunities for independent study supported by professors.
The cost of living is great - but then, I came from Manhattan. The campus is beautiful, the town is lovely but has what you need, with surprisingly good restaurants. The library is great; the entire school is really beautiful. My apartment is a ten-minute walk from school. Fifteen minutes, and you're in rural hills, a bit longer, and you're in the mountains. Can't beat that.
I was surprised that the financial aid was as competitive as it was. Definitely made the decision easier.
I found this review helpful (0 others have found this review helpful)
Report abuse
Students are NOT competitive at all -- we tell our admitted students and our incoming 1Ls about the collegial atmosphere, and whether it's self-selecting or people really are persuaded, there is no cut-throat behavior here. Sure, classes are graded to a B+ mean, so your exam is compared with your classmates' (like everywhere), but people don't hesitate to share notes, form study groups, or generally be friendly. Most of my classes have been very interesting, and all but a handful of professors would qualify as "very good" to "exceptional". It's a big school, so there are a lot of opportunities to take varied classes, but it's still a community environment where we can really get to know profs if we want to (plus student government pays for us to take profs out to lunch, which is great). Lots of clinics and practical classes but also lots of the theoretical/academic classes that you'd expect from a top school; plenty of popular professors work with both types. Workload is pretty reasonable, because, frankly, if it weren't, people just wouldn't do it. UVA prides itself on balance, whether that means playing softball every day, hitting up the bar scene, going to the gym, or being involved in the community -- there's no one way to do it, but the main thing is that people don't want to spend all day in the library, and professors respect that. (But for those that do, there are now ten journals and professors are always looking for research assistants, which pay decently well.)
I'm not sure the "10" above really captures it. Cost of living is fairly low, especially given that most of our peer schools are in major cities. Housing is easy to find, with decent apartments near school, really nice apartments further out, and lots of houses for 2Ls and 3Ls that want them. Again, in a smaller city, crime and transportation aren't major issues (though a car is almost a must, and traffic is surprisingly bad). Lots of great restaurants, many of which are written about in national papers, though not all of them fit on a student budget. Then again, it's a college town, so there are a ton of great, cheap places too. And almost everyone at the law school is really friendly and understands the meaning of balance and having fun.
Scholarships based on application, no separate app; I had GPA/LSAT >75%ile and got half off tuition (out of state); VA residents get $5000 off the top and make up 40% of the incoming class (so presumably some admissions preference as well); if I was doing it again, I might take a year off, work in DC, live in Northern Virginia
The professors are phenomenal, and extremely accessible. I have found that there are definitely more classes that I want to take than time to take them! The school offers fantastic clinical programs as well, and there are a great number of clubs and organizations for legal and non-legal oriented activities. There are some great dual degree and study abroad programs. While the students are competitive, the atmosphere still remains very collegial.
Friendly, social, great campus. I would not recommend another law school for people who want to obtain a difficult degree in a collegial environment.
The application to UVA is similar to that of many other law schools; it requires the same general essay and documents. I found, however, that the school was more responsive than most to helping me determine a financial aid package, and I was able to obtain a good scholarship as well.
QOL is amazing at UVA. Cost of living is reasonable, grounds are gorgeous and safe, and weather generally is nice. People genuinely seem to be happy here. You couldn't pick a better place to spend 3 years than Charlottesville and UVA Law.
People work hard and try to do well but are collegial and respectful of their classmates.
I can't imagine the quality of life being better at any other law school. I've made good, close friends and enjoy the true sense of community that is engendered at UVA Law.
Wonderful professors and diverse class offerings. Very few required courses, so it's easy to take what you want. Flex exams so you can schedule exam period to fit your personal study style/schedule. Smart students but no back stabbing - people are always willing to study together and share notes/outlines.
Everything is top of the line.
Great scholarship opportunities help make UVA affordable.
The classes and professors are extremely engaging. Classmates are intelligent and hardworking, but not at all competitive. The environment is extremely collegial, with cooperation the norm and jerky gunners the very rare exception.
The facilities at the school are top-notch, from the classrooms, which feature computers and projectors, to the moot courtrooms, which all contain state of the art electronics. Charlottesville is a wonderful community, and the residents really embrace the school and the students here.
Standard application process with LSAT and one personal statement-type essay. All students are automatically considered for scholarship opportunities, so there are no additional application requirements for those.
Standard admissions process through LSAC as far as I can remember.
Many small classes and seminars are available; there is a large series of "Principles and Practices" classes taught by practitioners that teach practical skills; the socratic method is used masterfully by many of the professors
Classes are usually wonderful. I was able to start doing research with a professor very early on. The socratic method is far from intense (I am in my 6th semester and I have been cold-called 5 times; taht being said most people get called more often but I like to talk). Competitiveness depends on the year. It has gotten noticeably more competitive as the economy has tanked but it is still far from cut throat.
All the stuff on your example list is awesome. Charlottesville can be pricey (granted not compared to NYC or Boston). On campus housing stinks so almost nobody uses it but off campus housing is plentiful for grad students. The dining possibiliites on campus can be a bit limited but there are places nearby, the town is safe and the people are friendly.
To be brutally honest, I really don't remember all that much about the admissions process (I am about to graudate). I give tours for the admissions department so I know the median GPA is about 3.85 and the median LSAT is somewhere around 170.

Got a shop? Optimize your opening times!
If you have a shop it would be a smart move to optimize your webpage on which you place your opening times.
Goad concludes that 'opening times' related searches are a missed opportunity for retailers and affiliates. A third of peoples searching for 'good Friday opening times' didn't click on a SERP-link which indicates they didn't find what they are looking for.
When taking a look at Google Trends and Google Insights the findings of Hitwise are confirmed. There is a relatively high percentage of users searching for opening times in Europe. Shops however aren't opmitized for it at all.
A search on some of the major shops in several European countries returned surprisingly bad results for the 'main brands'.
We took a test in the Netherlands. The search term "Openingstijden 'brandname'" gave back terrible results for four of the bigger 'brands' in Holland:
HEMA: not in first ten results
Albert Heijn: not in first ten results
V&D: not in first ten results
Blokker: not in first ten results
Even with a name of a city included the websites didn't show up in the results. This when the average searchvolume in a small country like Holland for "openingstijden" (openinghours in Dutch) is almost 675.000 a month.
Conclusion: start optimizing your opening hours pages!

RECIPE: holiday fruitcakes
People make a lot of jokes about fruitcakes. I've always wondered about that. Old friends and family ask me every year, if I am going to make fruitcakes and are they going to receive one?
A couple of people have mentioned they like my cakes because I don't use very much fruitcake mix. I put in a lot of dried currants, yellow raisins, dark raisins, glace green cherries and glace pineapple. I use a generous amount of pecans, too. I mix all of the fruits together and soak them in a few tablespoons of rum to enhance their flavor.
I wrap my cakes, individually, in cheese cloth which has been soaked in rum. (I prefer the milder flavor of rum, but brandy can be used.) I make the cakes at least six weeks before Christmas, so they will have time to ripen (the flavors will meld together). I wrap them well in plastic, and store them in a dark cupboard.
It is an expensive recipe to make, and takes the better part of day to prepare, but the value of tradition amongst friends and family makes it worthwhile. I mail cakes to Hawaii, California, New York, New Jersy, Wisconsin, and Texas.
Lorna, that sounds delicious!! I too make fruit cakes the same way with bourbon for flavor. I also put a split apple in the hole before wrapping in cheesecloth. This keeps it from being so dry and I replace the apple as needed. Thanks for posting this, I am looking forward to making one or two before Thanksgiving.
Lorna, I just made a terrific fig fruitcake with figs, dates, pineapple, golden raisins, apricots and pecans, preserved with sherry. We've been nibbling on one of the five mini-loaves and oh yum! it's delicious. My recipe says that the cakes should be refrigerated for 2-4 weeks. Any thoughts on why refrigeration and not shelf storage for these? Leda, nice thought about the split apple.
Seattlesuze, that sounds wonderful--really flavorful. The thing about fruitcakes is that they are supposed to be able to keep without refrigeration. Not only does the liquor act as a preservative, but sugar also is a preservative. Perhaps in modern times, the recipe writer just thought that the cakes should be refrigerated. One of my friends keeps my cake (in a cabinet) for a whole year before she eats it. She has to resoak the cheesecloth in liquor a couple of times a year to keep the cake from drying out.
I, too, make a few minis when I do my cakes, so I can have a sample, or two. I've been buying my ingredients a few at a time during recent weeks, to spread out the expense.
I live in New Mexico. The first frost will be here soon. I saw that some of my basil plants had blackened tips the other day.
First frost! Yikes. We're just coming into a break of a few sunny days during a rainy fall. Basil still has a few leaves to harvest and thank goodness, cuz there are a ton of tomatoes that we still have to preserve. But I was walking the garden today and there are more than two dozen roses still in bloom. I was able to make some beautiful bouquets for the house, just grabbing for those last bits of summer, you know? I don't envy you the colder weather.
Do I dare preserve these fig fruitcakes in the cupboard rather than refrigerator? You're absolutely right about the preservation element of the alcohol. I'm a fruitcake newbie, though, and I thought perhaps the figs or some of the other fruits might change the cooling requirement. Do you think it'd be safe to move them - they're taking up an entire half-shelf in the fridge and I could use it for a million other things.
Hello, Sue! Were all of the fruits you used dried fruits? If so, I should think it would be safe to keep the cakes in a cool, dark cabinet.
Some stoves have cabinetry around their flues, I would never store food in a cabinet near a heat source. My father stored canned goods in that sort of cabinet. My sister and I found several tins of spoiled food!
Fall is the best flower garden time around here. Many of my flowers are in full bloom, including both wild and cultivated.
My Favorite Fruitcake
1 lb. candied cherries, cut into quarters
1 pint jar pineapple preserves
1 lb. raisins (I like the golden ones)
1 quart chopped nuts (I use pecans)
1/2 lb of Butter (not margarine)
5 eggs at room temperature
2 cups sifted self-rising flour
1 sm. (1 oz.) bottle lemon extract
1 1/2 cup white granulated sugar
1 tsp. vanilla extract
Cream the butter and sugar well add eggs, flour, the extracts and the preserves. Mixing well. Pour over the cherries, raisins and the nuts, mixing well.
Pour into a greased and floured tube or bundt cake pan and bake in pre-heated oven at 250 degrees about 3 hours or until a toothpick inserted comes out clean.
Will keep several weeks out of refrigerator in a cake dish with tight fitting lid if it last that long. It is very moist and people that don't like most fruitcakes like this one. Glenda
Old English Fruit Cake
This recipe creates a large volume of batter! It requires
4 mixing bowls, the largest being a bread bowl.
1 pound butter
1 pound light brown sugar
9 eggs
2 tblsps. milk
1 pound regular white floor (about 4 cups)
2 tsps. mace
2 tsps. cinnamon
1 tsp. baking soda
2 pounds dried currants
1 pound seeded dark raisins
1 pound golden (sultana) raisins
8 oz. glace fruits (fruit cake mix)
8 oz. glace pineapple
8 oz. glace green cherries
1 pound whole pecans (be careful to check for shells before adding nuts)
approx. 2 cups of rum, brandy, or sherry
2 packages of cheese cloth
First sort your dried fruits to pick out any stems. Put all dried fruits into a collander and wash fruits. Use kitchen towel to partially dry fruits. Place dried fruits into large bread bowl, mix in glaced fruits, add 3 tablespoons liquor, mix well, then set aside.
Separate the eggs. Beat egg whites until stiff, adding half of the brown sugar, set aside. Cream butter, adding half the brown sugar, mix well. Beat the egg yolks until thick. Beat yolks into butter mixture, along with the milk. Fold in egg white mixture.
Sift flour, baking soda, mace and cinnamon. Stir into butter mixture, then stir batter into fruit mixture by hand.
Grease and flour baking tins. I usually get 9-10 cakes from a recipe: 3 full loaf size cakes, 6 half loaf cakes, plus 2 minis. Place pan of hot water in 275 degree oven for the purpose of creating steam. Put your cakes into the oven, and bake for one hour. Smallest cakes should be done after one hour, continue to bake larger cakes until they test done with a toothpick. Mid size cakes will be done before largest cakes.
Thoroughly cool cakes on racks before wrapping each cake in liquor soaked cheese cloth. Wrap well in plastic and store in cool, dark cupboard. Allow cakes to ripen for at least six weeks. Cakes will keep well for several months. It is a good idea to re-wet cheesecloth with liquor every three months for long term storage.
I make fruitcakes every couple of years. My favorite recipe is in an old Betty Homes and Garden cookbook. Its a dark fruitcake that uses frozen orange juice in the batter. It has a really fruity taste that converts people who don't like fruitcakes. If anyone is interested, I'll post it.
Even in FL the weather is cooling off. Must be time to make these!
Burp, hic! I've been drinking wine.... this is a wonderful recipe that I will use next week (before Thanksgiving) to make these wonderful fruitcakes.
As noted above, this recipe is from a 1976 B&G recipe book.
heat oven to 275°
1 6-oz can frozen orange juice concentrate, thawed
1/2 cup molasses
1 15-oz package (3 cups) raisins
1 lb. (2 cups) chopped mixed candied fruit and peels
Note: I use candied orange peel, candied lemon peel, chopped dates, and candied cherries to equal 1 lb.
1/2 cup butter
2/3 cup sugar
3 eggs
1 1/4 cups sifted all purpose flour
1/8 teaspoon soda
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg
1/4 teaspoon ground allspice
1/4 teaspoon ground cloves
1/2 cup chopped walnuts
Combine orange juice concentrate, molasses, and raisins in saucepan. Cook over medium heat, stirring occasionally till mixture comes to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer 5 minutes. Remove from heat. Stir in fruit and peels.
In a separate bowl, cream butter and sugar. Add eggs, one at a time, beating well after each. Sift together flour, soda, and spices. Stir into creamed mixture. Stir in fruit and peel mixture and nuts; mix well till all fruit is coated.
Line one 11x4x3-inch pan and two 5 1/2x3x2 1/4-inch pans with heavy paper, allowing 1/2 inch to extend above all sides. Pour batter into pans, filling about 3/4 full. Bake in very slow oven (275°) about 2 1/4 to 2 1/2 hours for large loaf and about 1 1/2 hours for smaller loaves. Cool cakes in pans; remove. Wrap in foil or clear plastic wrap and store in cool place, several weeks. Make about 3 1/2 pounds fruitcake.
My husband doesn't eat fruitcake and he love this one. Very fruity and moist. I often add small amounts of rum while it is resting. Delicious!
Thanks for asking for this recipe!
