No Health Insurance? Get Ready to Enroll.
UPDATE: HHS unveiled a newly redesigned healthcare.gov today, which lets users learn more about enrolling in health insurance plans through online insurance marketplaces beginning October 1st. I tried it out. The web site leads you through a series of questions and presents you with your likely options for coverage and whatever financial assistance might be available to help you pay for that coverage. It also creates a customized "checklist" to help you prepare for enrollment, which includes a list of documents you'll need to gather.
Rhode Island's health benefits exchange
In less than 100 days, Rhode Island's online marketplace for health insurance will go live. And, by the way, I expect announcements about its new name and plans to promote it sometime very soon. If you don't currently have health insurance, you'll want to head for the exchange beginning October 1st to shop for a plan. The "individual mandate" requirement of the Affordable Care Act goes into effect January 2014. That means you have to prove you have health insurance - by sending documentation to the IRS when you pay your taxes - or pay a penalty. That penalty doesn't seem like much now, but it will grow over the next few years.
If you already have health insurance, that's great. But depending on when your coverage renews and who provides it, you might want to get familiar with the exchange, too. People in the following groups will want to pay close attention to the exchange:
RIte Care
There's a budget proposal making its way through the General Assembly now that would send about 6500 Rhode Islanders who currently receive health insurance through RIte Care, Rhode Island's managed Medicaid program, to the exchange. Some advocacy organizations are worried about this proposal because it would mean that people (most of whom are very low income) who pay nothing for their health care right now would suddenly be responsible for up to $2000 dollars a year in out-of-pocket medical costs, as well as higher monthly premiums.
Small Businesses
Some small employers may opt to send employees to the exchange to buy their own plans, rather than offering a few plans chosen by the employer. In Rhode Island, small businesses will have their own suite of choices on the exchange, by the way.
I'm not hearing lots of noise about small employers planning on dropping health care benefits altogether (for full time employees), but if that happens to you and you make a certain amount of the federal poverty line, you could be eligible for some federal assistance to buy your own plan on the exchange. For example, a family of four earning less than about $98,000 a year could be eligible for some help paying health insurance premiums.
The coming PR Blitz
Whatever your health insurance situation now, you'll probably be hearing lots about the exchange in the coming weeks as the federal government, state, and nonprofit organizations launch publicity campaigns targeting the uninsured (the primary audience, right now, for the exchanges). And behind the scenes, I know the state employees and consultants and nonprofits involved in readying the exchange will be working long hours to meet the deadline. I plan to cover some of those preparations. And I'd love to hear from you - questions about what the exchange will mean for you, or about the Affordable Care Act and its impact on you and Rhode Island? Post them in the comments section here, or email questions to our newsroom.

"As far as my relationship with [Logano], I treat him with respect on the racetrack, as I should."
The drivers were forced into close proximity for a Coca-Cola television shoot last spring, with Hamlin seated directly behind Logano in a minivan driven by Stewart and also packed with Danica Patrick, Ryan Newman and Greg Biffle. A spoof outtake ad was released in an attempt to decompress the situation and suggest the dispute was resolved.
"I don't really force it too much," Hamlin said of such situations. "I mean, there's awkward moments. You're face-to-face with someone and you're having to talk during a commercial or what have you. You have those moments where you just as soon look away and you do."
Logano says he considers him and Hamlin "fine."
"A year is a long time," he said. "It's over now. I feel like we've moved on.
"Obviously, people were talking about it this week because it's the one-year anniversary of the whole fiasco, but you move on and forget about things."
Although the open Hamlin-Logano hostilities have cooled, or at least quieted, their teams' tussle for early-season momentum and trophies is growing more spirited.
JGR's Toyotas won four of the first eight races last season, but Team Penske's Fords have been oppressive through three races this time around, apparently mastering the new knockout qualifying. Keselowski was a winner last week at Las Vegas and is second in points, and Logano is fourth in the standings.
But there is peace with him and Hamlin, Logano said.
"You're supposed to forgive and forget, and that goes both ways," Logano said, "so we both knew what we had to do, and I feel like we've moved on and we're going from there."
But if their season arcs continue as they hope, at some point Hamlin and Logano will have designs on the same space. Those chances are increased in a .533-mile bullring such as Bristol, even with the metal-mashing era of the storied concrete track a nostalgic memory. Hamlin and Logano will start within sight of each other in the Food City 500, with Logano having qualified fourth.
Whatever happens, they're unlikely to talk through it. Even more than a year later.
"If they speak, what do you say?" Hamlin said. "How do you express how upset you are with someone without punching them? I don't know how to do that. So you just don't say anything."

Henri Lloyd Win Race 5 - Clipper Round the World Yacht Race 2013/2014
The team celebrated its win with Champagne on arrival to Rushcutters Bay which further consolidates the team's overall lead in the race series.
Eric Holden, who was voted Sailor of the Month by Sail Canada last month, said of his team's victory:
'This win has been a long time coming; we've been the bridesmaid for the last couple of races so it's nice to do one better and win Race 5 into Sydney, Australia. People have been asking me if I would be happy winning the overall race without actually winning one of the races in the series. My answer is always yes, but it feels so much better to win a race then come second or third.
'What's been interesting about this race has been the mixture of offshore and inshore racing. With the interchangeable weather it meant a lot more sail changes and a lot more work for the crew. Our strategy was to take it more conservatively and when our chance came we were ready to push hard and make it count,' added Holden.
Just under three hours later, OneDLL secured second place after crossing the Race 5 finish line at 0614 local time (1914 UTC). 'We had a good start in Albany and that continued with competitive sailing with Henri Lloyd and Derry~Londonderry~Doire,' explained skipper Olly Cotterell.
Qingdao enters Sydney Harbour in third position - Clipper Round the World Yacht Race 2013/2014
The third podium was taken by Chinese entry Qingdao which crossed the finish line at 0911 local time (2211 UTC); provisionally securing a podium position overall. Skipper Gareth Glover said: 'That was one of the toughest races so far, as the weather was constantly changing so we had to change tactics on the spot.'
'Give me the Southern Ocean any day where you have more time to think about things and plan the tactics. The crew worked tirelessly and filled all the roles on board to get us the podium finish. We are always trying to do better than the last result, and we came fourth into Albany, so we are very happy with third into Sydney.'
The remainder of the fleet will arrive into the Cruising Yacht Club of Australia today and over the weekend.

Hope Solo will join Gatorade's powerful promotional arsenal after signing a multiyear marketing deal with the beverage company.
The Gatorade deal marks the second major endorsement for the standout goalie who helped the U.S. women's national team finish second in the 2011 FIFA Women's World Cup. Earlier this month, she joined teammates Abby Wambach and Alex Morgan in signing one-year deals with Bank of America.
A Gatorade representative would not reveal how they intend to use the 30-year-old Solo in the company's marketing, confirming only that Solo is part of Gatorade's push to diversify its athlete base. The company recently signed deals with U.S. men's goalie Tim Howard, swimmer Ryan Lochte and female surfer Coco Ho.
Industry sources peg the deal in the low six-figure range per year.
Richard Motzkin of Wasserman Media Group, who has represented Solo for 10 years, said he and Gatorade began discussing a possible deal before the World Cup started, but he described interest in her after the World Cup as "staggering." He hinted that more individual deals are on the horizon, but would not discuss details.
"Being on the cover of Sports Illustrated helped her awareness with the general public," Motzkin said. "She has an opportunity to become well-known not just in the soccer scene, but in the public mainstream as well."
Motzkin said that Solo's followers on Twitter jumped from 8,000 to more than 250,000 in little over a week, and compared Solo's surge in popularity to that of former U.S. midfielder Mia Hamm, who rose to prominence after the U.S. women won the 1999 World Cup.
Of the national team players, Solo, Wambach and Morgan have garnered the most mainstream attention in the wake of the team's loss to Japan in the World Cup finals. Wambach and Solo appeared on the "Late Show" with David Letterman, and Solo and Morgan attended the New York City premiere for the final season of the hit HBO show "Entourage." The three inked one-year deals with Bank of America to serve as spokeswomen for a charity surrounding the Chicago Marathon.
Gatorade has sponsored the U.S. women's national team since 1999, and has had an individual deal with Wambach since 2004.
Bill Glenn, senior vice president of marketing and strategies with The Marketing Arm, said Solo's marketing numbers on its Davie Brown Index (DBI) put her on par with Miami Heat star Dwyane Wade. According to Glenn's research, Solo's overall awareness jumped from 21.4 percent to 28.0 percent in the period between the team's quarterfinals victory over Brazil and its loss to Japan. However, her endorsement value dropped from a score of 72.3 to 66.7 during that period.
"You could summarize that the loss did have an impact on how consumers view [Solo] in key attributes like aspiration and influence," Glenn said. "But as they gain more exposure, I wouldn't say (the loss) will significantly affect her marketing."
Doug Shabelman, president of Burns Entertainment, said Solo's combination of leadership, success on the field, physical attractiveness and a recognizable name give her an opportunity to maintain marketability after attention in women's soccer cools. "She's the goalie, which is a showcase in individualism," Shabelman said. "It sets her up nicely to be a spokesperson or follow up with a career in broadcasting."
Solo is continuing to play for the WPS magicJack team in South Florida.

These reviews are the opinion of an RVParkReviews' member and not the views of RVParkReviews.com
Date of Stay: July, 2012 - $40.00
Park was nearly full, so we were lucky to have gotten one of the last sites, which was roomy enough compared to other parks in the area, especially those in town, that shoehorn you in. Clean bathrooms, attentive staff. Only used it as a base camp while we were off to experience the sights during the day, so no comment on the "RV park experience." Only drawback is they only take cash or check, no credit cards. Tough if you want to reserve a space while you are on the road a few days out. We camped at Woodlake Park in a Truck Camper.
Date of Stay: July, 2010 - $31.00
We had a terrible site! It was supposed to be 50' and wide but was a shared driveway with the next site and barely had room to park our truck. Site and road was rocky (not gravel) and tough to walk on without twisting your ankle. Waist high weeds were about 6' from our door side so we had little space to sit in. Mosquito's were thick because of the weeds. Owner charged us $31.00 at check in and handed us a brochure about the park. When I read it, it said all sites were $28.00. Next morning, I went to office and asked her about it and she said we had a "premium" site. We camped at Woodlake Park in a Travel Trailer.
Date of Stay: July, 2009 - $28.00
Older, quiet park. Deer wandering though. Mostly retired campers who were for the most part friendly. Wi-Fi is available for a FEE, but it is reasonable & is fairly reliable. I could see where large rigs might have a hard time getting in and out. We would definitely stay here again. We camped at Woodlake Park in a Travel Trailer.
Date of Stay: July, 2009 - $35.00
We stayed here four nights. This park has quite a few regulars that return here every year; so, everybody seemed to know and be friendly to each other. We fit right in. They had a potluck dinner one night and live music on a another, we were invited (but not pressured) to join right in. We enjoyed the music. Bathrooms were heated and clean. WiFi was SLOW! My advice is to use the free high speed internet at the coffee house in town (but my Verizon card also worked. It was slow too). At times, the area was full of deer. I enjoyed my coffee one morning with a deer eating clover at my feet. The famous Alfred Packer Massacre site was nearby, but it was not much to look at. There's good fishing at Lake San Cristobal (just below the park). The nearby 58-mile-long "Alpine Loop" Jeep and ATV trail is a must see! Would I return? I'd be there now, if I didn't have to work. We camped at Woodlake Park in a Travel Trailer.
Date of Stay: July, 2009 - $35.00
A great park. Beautiful scenery, deer walking through the park in the morning, chipmunks and birds everywhere. Some sites on the river/stream, but difficult access to water. Quite a few long-term campers, but all were very friendly and sociable. The sites were level, campground clean, neat. Wi-Fi available with a small charge. Clean bathrooms. Will definitely stay here again. We camped at Woodlake Park in a Motorhome.
Date of Stay: July, 2008 - $35.00
This is a pretty rough campground. The roads are dirt with some stone and rock mixed in. The whole campground is arranged a bit haphazardly. We had probably the best camp site available. Mostly because it was out of the way at a weird angle. It was large and covered with gravel. We were warned about not leaving food out because of bears. However, one of the neighbors put out corn everyday to attract deer, birds and other animals. I don't know if bear like corn or not but it worried us a bit. Most of the sites are close together and not long enough for a longer 5th wheel and tow vehicle or motor home and toad. There was extra parking available in the campground. WiFi was slow and buggy. We finally just gave up. According to the instructions, online game playing or any sort of streaming was not allowed. I don't know how anyone could stream anything at the speeds we were getting. We did have a nice fire pit and enjoyed sitting out by the fire. Even though it was late July the temp at night was in the high 40s. Perfect for us. And the night sky is amazing!!! We camped at Woodlake Park in a Motorhome.
Date of Stay: July, 2008 - $25.00
What a great campground. Fishing on site, deer prancing through in early am. Friendly staff, clean restrooms/showers. Even a musical jam fest on Thursday evening. Friendly, clean and laid back. Enjoyed ourselves and look forward to our return. We camped at Woodlake Park in a Tent Trailer.
Beautiful setting South of Lake City. Friendly staff went out of their way to make sure
everything was perfect. Extremely clean campground. We camped at Woodlake Park in a Tent Trailer.

If this machine had worked as it was suppose to it would have been an excellent buy for the money. However Overstock took it back and refunded my money without question.
With several promotions, I got this marvelous sewing machine for well under $XXX. Now several weeks later I have no complaints whatsoever. - Very easy to learn operation - The "cut" button is making sewing a dream - Powerful action, pierces several folds of cotton/duck with no problem - Huge number of stitch options, each individually customizable with push of a button - Comes with a case and two different size sewing surfaces - Has various additional parts included, for button sewing, quilting, etc - Needle variety pack and several blank bobbins will let you hit the ground running - Refurbished quality is basically like new So far I've sewn a heavy cotton outdoors jacket, and in the middle of completing a pair of duck cargo pants. Broke two needles (my fault), but machine keeps ticking. You should really pay attention to the tension setting and bunching up of the thread underneath when switching needles, thread, fabric, etc. I believe each time I had an issue was due to me just learning the process of sewing on this. The machine re-adjusts with no problem after you correct your own mistake. I'm having fun with this one, for sure! Highly recommended.
The Singer Quantum Stylist 9960 is an excellent sewing machine. I have now purchased two of them...one for my daughter and one for myself. Yesterday I found another for around the same price for a good friend. She was delighted to get one. Anyone purchasing this machine from you would be more than happy with all the features provided. For example it has the thread cutter, the needle threader, many options for stitch sizes and stitches. Up to 600. I must also say that it was "factory" refurbished which allowed me to buy with confidence. I have suggested your purchase site to friends and look forward to purchasing a 65" mattress for our pull-out bed couch. I live in Canada but winter in Florida.

Design methods for some dose-response models
Strijbosch, Leo W.G. and Does, Ronald J.M.M. and Albers, Willem (1990) Design methods for some dose-response models. Statistics in Medicine, 9 (11). pp. 1353-1363. ISSN 0177-6715
564kB |
Abstract: | A recently described design method for one-parameter biomedical models such as limiting or serial dilution assays is generalized to two-parameter models for which the dose-response relationship can be expressed as a linear regression model with parameters α (intercept) and β (slope). Design formulae are proposed for three different cases in which prior information about the unknown regression parameters α and β is available (α known, β known and neither known, respectively). A suitable transformation of the two-parameter model enables the direct application of the one-parameter design method to the first two cases, while the third needs more advanced considerations. Two experimental designs, taken from the literature, are reproduced as closely as possible using the methods described, thus showing under which circumstances these designs are suitable. |

Thought i may be a good idea for members to post when they get the OTA update to ICS and what their first impressions are.
I stickied this, please keep to the topic the OP requested. Only post if you have actually received the update to 4.0 (ice cream sandwhich) and let us know what your first impressions are. All other posts will be moved to a general discussion of ICS thread.
I have it, as mentioned in the other stickied thread. Got it March 9th. I haven't had too much time to play around with it, so here are my quick and dirty observations from everyday use: Pros: The overall speed and smoothness has improved dramatically - scrolling the contacts list or through text messages is now smooth as silk. It looks great - nice new font. Ability to delete unused home screens - I now have the five that I use, and have gotten rid of the two empty screens. The data usage function is really nice. I can now set it to warn me when I get close to my limit, and shut it off completely when I hit my limit. Yes, I know that there are other apps which can do this, but it's nice to have it integrated now. The Sense icons at the bottom of the homescreen are gone, now replaced with what looks like more stock Android icons (see screenshot in Official ICS discussion thread) - they are also customizable. Quick Settings option in drop down menu is nice. Faster camera speed (even quicker if you disable three second review) - panorama mode looks nice. By holding down the "Home" button, a list of active programs appears, and you can kill any of them by swiping them off screen. Face Unlock is kind of fun, but I'll stick with my PIN. Cons : GPS toggle seems to have been forgotten... The only way I have managed to use GPS is to enable it in Locations settings - this allows ALL apps to use it whenever they feel like it. If I do not enable it in Location settings, my toggle on SwitchPro Widget doesn't work, and my Tasker GPS profile doesn't work (even though Tasker says that the profile is active when trigger programs are open). UPDATE: After googling the GPS issue, it seems that I am not the only one having this issue. Apparently SwitchPro released an update which fixed the issue on the GNex, so hopefully they will know how to fix it on the XE. GoSMS Pro cannot retrieve contact photos from phonebook Every time you restart the phone it says that Android is upgrading, currently optimizing xx of xx apps (same number every time). This takes time, obviously. I can't seem to get the new "folder" function working. According to reviews, you should be able to create a folder just by dragging an app and dropping it onto another - but not on my XE. I use folder organizer, so I don't need it, but just wanted to check it out. Overall I'm liking the system though, and hopefully HTC will iron out the kinks soon enough!
GUYS, The update has just hit my XE in the last 10 Minutes, downloading as we speak. Im now running the UK stock software version 401 unbranded and BOOM update has just landed after I checked in on the phone. Will report back any progress/comments
The is ICS upgrade is awesome !! They have kept a lot of vanilla ICS hints in there from the OS and not over-sensed it. Everything seems so much better. The lock screen where you can user determine the tabs is cool. Off to play with it now
Must have just got lucky ! Would post some screenshots but it would appear that the function has been taken out of the update. It was in the beta that pocket-lint had
and another sorry been busy and couldnt resize the screenshots any earlier. I have no idea why any of you guys are not getting it. Must be rolling out soon
So the update has just hit the asian market i think, I just got the update, unlocked/unbranded Sensation XE in Malaysia. Downloading but its slow i think everyone and their dog is hogging server bandwidth, once finished will update.
anyone knows when we're gona get it, in the UK? i heard that vodafone already rolled it out few days ago, what about o2? :/ all ths takes way too long!
I'm in Spain and I bought an unlocked HTC Sensation Xe on ebay. It's French I think, but as it has all language packs it's ok. The thing is that everyone is getting the OTA around here but me. Does anyone know of anybody with the same issue? Thanks

COLUMBIA – After an initial flurry of inquiries about swine flu, local health officials say things are starting to slow down.
When news first broke about swine flu, health officials say they received an increased number of phone calls asking questions about the H1N1 virus.
Genalee Alexander, a spokeswoman for the Columbia/Boone County Department of Public Health and Human Services, said they had a nurse on call to respond to the influx.
"I know that nurse on call took quite a few calls last week, but that number has really tapered off this week," she said. "I think people know there is no need to panic."
Alexander said most of the people who called wanted to talk to the nurse about whether they could have the virus.
"A lot of people said, 'I have these symptoms, I've had it this long, I did or did not travel,' and they just wanted some sort of health care professional walking them through whether or not they have been exposed."
Others, she said, just wanted more information about the virus.
"A lot of people last week just immediately picked up the phone and didn't have a lot of answers to their questions," she said.
The MU Student Health Center also received a good volume of phone calls regarding swine flu. David Dale, spokesman for the center, said lately that number has returned to being average.
"We have had some students who think they might have it, but most of the time students aren't even aware what the symptoms are," Dale said. "We've provided a link on our Web site to the CDC information about H1N1 so students can familiarize themselves with the symptoms."
The center is also trying to keep students in the know about the latest swine flu news and precautionary measures they can take to lower the chance of getting sick.
"We want our students and the community to be aware of swine flu and take the proper precautions, but we don't want people getting overly alarmed," he said.
Gloria Crull, executive director of the Family Health Center, said swine flu hasn't really been an issue, possibly because people have been calling the Department of Public Health instead.
She said that when people came in with symptoms, they were treated as they normally would have been.
"When people are acutely ill, if they have flu-like symptoms, we screen for it like any other primary care provider," Crull said. "It was pretty much business as usual for us."
Alexander said she does not think there is a large risk for Boone County.
"I really want to stress that no, we do not think Boone county residents need to panic. We don't think anybody needs to panic. We just want people to be aware of the symptoms."

Easy recipe for pita bread – fried rather than baked for extra deliciousness
Further to the earlier posts about great pita bread at the Lebanese place Arbanus in Mercado Roma I decided to try making fried pita bread. I suspected the pita at Arbanus was fried both because of the size and shape and because the surface was mottled - something you don't get when you bake pita […]

Squirrels and rain can slow down an ADSL modem...2001-02-01 (updated: 2014-08-17) by GordonWhen I received my huge package from Bell Sympatico, I unpacked everything, installed all the hardware and software, and waited until morning for the account to be activated. When It was, I was receiving around 200k download, and .3k upload! Disgusting! I phoned Bell Sympatico, and the tech there walked me through the standard; "Check this...Check that..." routine. Still no improvement. After about 3 days of frustrating calls, my 'ticket' was escalated. The tech who called me at the time I had said I would be home, walked me through more of the advanced settings, and tricks to get my speed up...Still nothing. I informed him that the speed would drop even further when it rained... So he booked a technician in two days, and refunded a full month of service (At this time I had been on this service for about 5 days). When the service tech arrived, he went around to the back to check to see whether the connection to the line that runs between the block of houses was damaged, he found nothing. He then went up to the switching station at the end our block and came back an hour later and informed me that the speed should be better now. I went and tried it and lo and behold 780k!!! I asked him what the problem was and he told me that the switching station was half full of water and there was a family of squirrels living in the switch! I was satisfied with the speed improvement, but he insisted that he stay to get it up past 1mb...Very sweet... Well needless to say, an hour later I checked my speed, and I was totally surprised to see that my speed was above 1mb/sec!!! (It didn't last though, I have been sitting around 95 for about three months now... The moral of the story? If your speed decreases, check for rain and squirrels... Cheers!!!

The historic meeting between the two popes appears to have been anything but awkward as Pope Francis traveled to Castel Gandolfo today to lunch with predecessor Benedict XVI.
The two popes embraced on the helipad when Francis' helicopter arrived, Vatican spokesman Rev. Federico Lombardi said on Vatican Radio. The two were dressed in white, with Pope Francis wearing a cape and sash to distinguish himself from Benedict, who wore a simple white cassock.
When the duo went to the chapel, Lombardi said Benedict offered Francis the traditional kneeler used by the pope, but Francis wanted the ...

Since I switched to the Mac a few years ago I have never come across a program like Macintosh Explorer. Having so many file management tools in just one application has made my life so much easier. I didn't even hesitate to purchase it.

Afterschool programs are a proven method of helping to improve a school's performance. Studies show that afterschool programs improve academic achievement, reduce grade retention and increase student attendance and interest in school. Across the country, afterschool is a key element in strategies to turn around under-performing schools. The superintendent of Philadelphia and the governor of Virginia have used afterschool to turn their schools around. Congress recognized the benefits of afterschool by mandating provision of extra learning opportunities in afterschool hours through the creation of the Title I Supplemental Educational Services program.
According to state departments of education, more than 7,000 schools in the United States are considered in need of improvement.1 Some characteristics of successful schools include high academic achievement, clear standards and evaluation processes, community involvement and students who are engaged in learning. Afterschool programs offer a chance to reinforce and supplement the curriculum by offering new and different opportunities for learning that further engage students in school. Community involvement frequently is built in, as many afterschool programs are partners with community- and faith-based organizations.
Of Principal Importance
Principals and superintendents acknowledge that afterschool plays an important role in turning around failing or under-performing schools.
Blue Ribbon Success
Since 1982, the U.S. Department of Education's Blue Ribbon Schools program has honored schools that meet high academic standards or have shown significant improvement during the past five years. Studies show that afterschool programs help schools develop qualities necessary to win a Blue Ribbon designation, namely high student retention and graduation rates; challenging standards and curriculum; excellent teaching and an environment that strengthens teachers' skills and improvement; school, family and community partnerships; and good student performance on measures of achievement. In 2001, 264 schools were selected as Blue Ribbon Schools. What do many of them credit for their success? Afterschool programs.

Caffeine-free Chai Caroline MacDougall Serves 5
Rooibos is a deep red herbal tea from South Africa that's available in some health-food stores. It has a body and flavor similar to those of black tea but is free of caffeine. This spiced version is a rich beverage to which you can add milk and honey.
To save time, crush and blend the spices and store them for up to a week in a jar with a tight-fitting lid. Or simmer the spices in advance, then bottle and freeze the spiced liquid in convenient quantities to make into chai later.
• 2 cinnamon sticks, shredded • 3 slices gingerroot • 1 1/2 teaspoons chicory • 1 1/2 teaspoons cardamom • 1 teaspoon black peppercorns • 1 teaspoon star anise • 1 teaspoon cloves • 2 tablespoons rooibos • 5 cups boiling water
1. Crush and blend the spices. Add the rooibos and mix well.
2. Warm a teapot with hot water, then pour it out. Put the rooibos/spice blend into the pot and pour in the boiling water. Cover the pot with a towel or tea cozy and steep for 10 minutes.
3. Strain the tea into cups, adding warmed milk and sweetener if desired.
