About the Owner
After spending many vacations in the mountains of North Carolina, we decided to build what we considered a comfortable cabin, not too big, not too small, easy to access, secluded and we think we did just that!!!
Guestbook comments from the owner
As usual our month here was wonderful. It is so peaceful and such a great place for Jerry's rehab. We spend hours on the front porch playing games, eating our meals, or just listening to the creek flowing and the quiet surroundings. One of our thrills was seeing three deer in the back (they come out between 7-7:30 a.m.), a cute little rabbit that came out every day, a blue heron flying over the creek, a family of cardinals and our "pet" hummingbirds who never failed to entertain us each day.
I had the best Rueben sandwich I've ever had at Café Rel. Jerry also loved his gyro. Lucio's, Cafe' Rel, and Mrs. Lois' are our three favorite restaurants. There is a new coffee shop on 441S that has great bagels and hamburgers. It is located next to the Gallery of Gems and Minerals which is a lovely store and where I manage to buy jewelry each year! This store and the Gam Factory both sell my husband's large gem stone trees. Gold City (Uptown) sells his small gem stone trees. Check them out!
We celebrated our 49th anniversary here this year and we're already making plans to celebrate our 50th here next year.

Design Dimensions
The panels of prefab
popular .
The terms "modular" and "prefabricated" have become common language when speaking of cabinetry. They denote speed, ease of installation, and economy. They also insinuate mass production. But are they so?
In more advanced countries, prefabricated or modular fixtures were developed as the solution to the high cost of labor. Sold in the usual two feet modules, kitchen cabinetry and filing systems, closets and cupboards can be purchased off the shelf, trucked to your home and workplace, and installed by your own two hands—with the help of some tools of course.
The concept of modular cabinetry was to save you from the nitty-gritty efforts of designing the cabinetry system yourself, relieving you of the trouble of having to decide what hardware, materials, finishes and accessories you would need. In home depots in other parts of the world, prefabricated or modular cabinets come in a wide range of functional configurations to choose from, but on our side of the globe, "prefabricated" isn't always as simple as buying it off the rack.
Our local depots sell quite a bit of prefabricated cabinetry for bathrooms, but not much for closets and kitchens. Essentially, in the local market, prefabricated is almost custom-made, wherein the materials and method of construction are like that of the machine-cut, heat-pressed and mass-assembled modular systems but, in a large way, still custom-specified by the end-user for color, size, hardware and interior accessories.
Less flaws or defects
Because they are predominantly machine-made, they have less production flaws or defects, are faster to assemble, and don't mess up the work site as much as traditional carpentry and painting would.
But the modular system has its downside too. Made mostly from Medium Density Fiber Board or MDF, the carcasses (the "boxes" that make up the cabinetry itself) are not as rigid as traditional plywood, and when used as shelving and subjected to a lot of weight, will tend to buckle over time. The same problem occurs with wide and deep drawers. The solution would be to have mid-supports or partition walls to cut the unsupported lengths, or to use more rigid material like phenolic and particleboards.
Particleboards are made from wood shavings or chips bound together with a resin glue to form a sheet, while phenolic boards are a denser material made from organic fiber bound with phenolic resin, and laminated on both sides with melamine film. Both are more rigid than MDF and are less porous, albeit more expensive. Phenolic boards are dense and sturdy, while particleboards are very rigid but tend to be more brittle, rendering themselves susceptible to fracturing due to the stresses of hardware like hinges and drawer guides.
MDF is not impervious to moisture and can swell when wet. This becomes a problem when you use it for lavatory cabinets that have countertop material that isn't seamless. Natural stone, for example, uses sealants to hold joints together like that between your countertop and splashboard. Eventually, these chip off, causing water to leak in and become absorbed by the boards. For this purpose, phenolic and particleboards are more applicable, or, better yet, vinyl foam boards like "versaboard," which are absolutely waterproof. It's what we usually use for bathroom cabinets.
Panel specifications
Panel heights for these boards are usually limited to the standard 2.4-meter commercial length like that of a plywood panel, but you can get around that limitation with a little creativity, incorporating horizontal breaks and joints into the cabinet design or pattern in order to have visually taller doors or panels.
The standard inside surface for prefab is foil melamine, with the default color of white but I like matching what is inside with the outside, especially if I'm working with wood finishes. If not, I like keeping them white even when other colors like beige and black are available. White just makes everything look clean and bright.
But boards are just one part of the prefab assembly, and other components like hardware, accessories and finishes will need more than today's column space for discussion. For now, you know that you can, at least, choose your boards. An off-the-shelf item, "prefab" is not.

Hey, Scripting Guy! How can I delete the C$ share from a computer?-- RB
Hey, RB. One quick clarification here: we can tell you how to temporarily delete the C$ share from a computer. However, the share will automatically be recreated any time the Server service is stopped and then restarted, or any time the computer is rebooted. Why? That's just the way these so-called "administrative shares" work. They're like dandelions or stray cats: once you have them, you can't really get rid of them.
That said, here's a script that will at least temporarily delete the C$ share:
strComputer = "."
Set objWMIService = GetObject("winmgmts:\\" & strComputer & "\root\cimv2")
Set colShares = objWMIService.ExecQuery _
("Select * from Win32_Share Where Name = 'C$'")
For Each objShare in colShares
This script starts off by connecting to the WMI service on the local computer. We then use this line of code to retrieve a collection of all the shares that have the Name C$:
Set colShares = objWMIService.ExecQuery _
("Select * from Win32_Share Where Name = 'C$'")
Because share names must be unique on a computer our collection will have - at most - just one item in it. Because it is a collection, however, we still need to set up a For Each loop to cycle through all the members in the collection. Inside that loop we call the Delete method to stop sharing the folder.
Note. Despite the name, the Delete method doesn't actually delete anything; it simply stops sharing the folder. The Delete method will not remove the share or any of its contents; it just prevents the data from being shared over the network.
Like we said, this effect is temporary: if the Server service is stopped and restarted or if the computer is rebooted then the C$ share will magically appear. Because of that you might want to put this code in a logon or computer startup script; that way the share will be removed even if the computer gets rebooted.
And, yes, you can delete the C$ share (or any other share) on a remote computer; all you have to do is assign the name of that computer to the variable strComputer. For example, here's a revised script that deletes the C$ share on the remote computer atl-ws-01:
Hasta la vista, C$.

Celtic Woman - A New Journey
Following on the massive success of last year's PBS special, Celtic Woman, a new special has been recorded at the historic Slane Castle. The wonderfully talented original members were joined by a sixth Celtic Woman, the New Zealand born International recording star Hayley Westenra. Hayley whose ancestors hailed from County Monaghan in Ireland brought another great dimension to the show. The setting for the show which has seen performances by U2, The Rolling Stones & Bruce Springsteen was a perfect backdrop for the music and songs that were once again arranged and written by composer David Downes. The new show received a standing ovation from a very appreciative audience. The songs were a wonderful blend of old classics, contemporary hits and original material. The individual and collective performances of Celtic Woman were enthralling and took full advantage of the castle setting on a surprisingly warm night at the County Meath venue. The evening was hosted by Lord Henry Mount Charles whose home in Slane Castle is steeped in Irish history with the famous River Boyne running through its grounds, the mystery of Newgrange at its door and the hill of Tara home to the kings of Ireland at its rear.

Fashion designer Lilly Pulitzer dies at 81
More News from Associated Press
MIAMI—Lilly Pulitzer, a Palm Beach socialite turned fashion designer whose tropical print dresses became a sensation in the 1960s and later a fashion classic, died Sunday. She was 81.
Her death was confirmed by Gale Schiffman of Quattlebaum Funeral and Cremation Services in West Palm Beach. She did not know Pulitzer's cause of death.
Pulitzer, who married into the famous newspaper family, got her start in fashion by spilling orange juice on her clothes. A rich housewife with time to spare and a husband who owned orange groves, she opened a juice stand in 1959, and asked her seamstress to make dresses in colorful prints that would camouflage fruit stains.
The dresses hung on a pipe behind her juice stand and soon outsold her drinks. The company's dresses, developed with the help of partner Laura Robbins, a former fashion editor, soon caught on.
"Lilly has been a true inspiration to us and we will miss her," according to a statement on the Lilly Pulitzer brand Facebook page. "In the days and weeks ahead we will celebrate all that Lilly meant to us. Lilly was a true original who has brought together generations through her bright and happy mark on the world."
Jacqueline Kennedy, who attended boarding school with Pulitzer, even wore one of the sleeveless shifts in a Life magazine photo spread, and matriarch Rose Kennedy and one of her teenage granddaughters were once reported to have bought nearly identical versions together.
The signature Lilly palette features tongue-in-cheek jungle and floral prints in blues, pinks, light greens, yellow and orange—the colors of a Florida vacation.
"I designed collections around whatever struck my fancy … fruits, vegetables, politics, or peacocks! I entered in with no business sense. It was a total change of life for me, but it made people happy," Pulitzer told the The Associated Press in March 2009.
The line of dresses that bore her name was later expanded to swimsuits, country club attire, children's clothing, a home collection and a limited selection of menswear.
"Style isn't just about what you wear, it's about how you live," Pulitzer said in 2004.
"We focus on the best, fun and happy things, and people want that. Being happy never goes out of style," she said.
In 1966, The Washington Post reported that the dresses were "so popular that at the Southampton Lilly shop on Job's Lane they are proudly put in clear plastic bags tied gaily with ribbons so that all the world may see the Lilly of your choice. It's like carrying your own racing colors or flying a yacht flag for identification."
But changing taste brought trouble. Pulitzer closed her original company in the mid-1980s after filing for bankruptcy protection. The label was revived about a decade later after being acquired by Pennsylvania-based Sugartown Worldwide Inc.; Pulitzer was only marginally involved in the new business but continued reviewing new prints from Florida.
"When Lilly started the business back in the '60s, she targeted a young customer because she was young," the company's president, Jim Bradbeer, told the AP in 2003. "What we have done is target the daughter and granddaughter of that original customer."
Pulitzer herself retired from day-to-day operations in 1993, although she remained a consultant for the brand.
Sugartown Worldwide was bought by Atlanta-based Oxford Industries in 2010. Sales of the Lilly Pulitzer brand were strong in the earnings period that ended Feb. 2. The brand's revenue increased 26 percent to $29.1 million, according to Oxford Industries' earnings report. The company said last week it planned to add four to six new stores each year for its Lily Pulitzer brand.
Pulitzer was born Lilly McKim on Nov. 10, 1931, to a wealthy family in Roslyn, New York.
In 1952, she married Pete Pulitzer, the grandson of newspaper publisher Joseph Pulitzer, whose bequest to Columbia University established the Pulitzer Prize. They divorced in 1969. Her second husband, Enrique Rousseau, died in 1993.
"I don't know how to explain what it was like to run my business, the joy of every day," she told Vanity Fair magazine in a story in 2003. "I got a kick every time I went into the shipping department. … I loved seeing (the dresses) going out the door. I loved them selling in the shop. I liked them on the body. Everything. There's no explaining the fun I had."
Pulitzer, who was known for hosting parties barefoot at her Palm Beach home, also published two guides to entertaining.
"That's what life is all about: Let's have a party. Let's have it tonight," she said.—Jennifer Kay

Toasting Lieberman's latest star turn at the center of the health care debate and the senator's announcement over the weekend that he'd oppose health care reform legislation that included a Medicare buy-in, which would allow people under the age of 65 to buy into Medicare and receive its coverage, here's how Klein reported the conflict:
Although Lieberman supported a Medicare "buy-in" expansion as part of the Gore-Lieberman platform in 2000, that was before the current fiscal crisis exacerbated concerns over deficits, and before a workable bill emerged that would accomplish many of his other health care priorities, he said.
Reading Klein, readers would think that Lieberman had a change of heart regarding the Medicare buy-in some time between 2000 and last weekend. Specifically, some time between "the current fiscal crisis" (i.e. 14 months ago) and last weekend.
False. The truth is Lieberman, who has been trumpeting the Medicare buy-in idea for years, suddenly had a change of heart between September and December, which of course is much more newsworthy, and puzzling. But for some reason Klein left that out of his reporting.
As Greg Sargent highlighted earlier this week, here's Lieberman in September touting the buy-in approach:
On Hannity, Peterson says parents shouldn't give their children the vaccine for "the illegal alien disease" H1N1
Special Report's Baier refers to "suspected illegals"
Fox' MacCallum repeatedly refers to "illegals," head of GOP Hispanic group responds she "hate[s] to call them that"
Despite reported "updates" to "style," Wash. Times repeatedly refers to "illegals" in headlines
I'm sure the Journal's editor Robert Thomson, who was recently brought in by Rupert Murdoch to run the newspaper, has no idea the history in play here, but it was supremely ironic that in a statement on Monday he whined about how New York Times editor Bill Keller last year " personally and at length to a prize committee casting aspersions on Journal journalists and journalism."
In Thomson's eyes, Keller's actions were just beyond the pale. What kind of journalists would bad mouth fellow journalists who were up for big awards? (In this case it was for a George Polk Awards in Journalism.) What kind of journalists would try to debunk articles that were being considered for a top journalism prize?
Journalists who work for the Wall Street Journal, that's who.
The headline from a Salon article I wrote in 2002 [emphasis added]:
The Wall Street Journal's smear campaign: The paper's Op-Ed pages have long been a platform for political assassination. But their latest target is a rival paper that is competing for a Pulitzer Prize.
Oh my.
Behold the hypocrisy of the Journal's top editor now whining about Keller's supposed meddling:
At 3 o'clock on Monday afternoon the sounds of champagne bottles popping open will be heard in a select number of newsrooms across the country as the winners of the newspaper industry's most prestigious award, the Pulitzer Prize, are officially announced. While the list of finalists is supposed to remain secret until the winners are declared, word always leaks out in advance. This year is no exception; among the reported Pulitzer finalists in the investigative reporting category is "Uninformed Consent," a six-part series that ran in the Seattle Times during March 2001.
The report, written by Duff Wilson and David Heath, alleged that during the 1980s a number of patients at Seattle's prestigious Fred Hutchinson Cancer Research Center in Seattle (aka the Hutch) died while undergoing experimental bone-marrow transplantation, and that patients were not informed of the clinical trials' risks or of the center's financial interest in those treatments. The series was years in the making and was based on an exhaustive review of 10,000 pages of documents as well as 100 interviews, and was overseen by an independent expert in bone-marrow medicine who reviewed it for accuracy. "Uninformed Consent" has already picked up scores of elite journalism prizes in the past few months, including a George Polk Award, a Goldsmith Prize for Investigative Reporting presented by Harvard's Shorenstein Center, and the Newspaper Guild's Heywood Broun Award.
Up until three weeks ago the series seemed to be a Pulitzer front-runner as well. But that changed on March 19, when Laura Landro, an assistant managing editor for the Wall Street Journal, penned a blunt critique of "Uninformed Consent" for the Journal's Op-Ed page. Titled "Good Medicine, Bad Journalism," the piece complained that the Seattle Times series was guilty of "gotcha" journalism and that the series' central allegation was "fundamentally false."
And yes, BTW. Landro managed to derail the Seattle Times' Pulitzer. And yes, Landro's critique was largely bogus.
UPDATED: Note this fact as well:
Even more startling was the fact that the broadside came an entire year after the Seattle Times series ran, but just weeks before the Pulitzer's 16 judges would make their final decisions. The Journal column appeared to be an unprecedented attempt to step in and derail a Pulitzer finalist.
Does WSJ editor Thomson want to rethink his attack on Bill Keller?
UPDATED: As the NYObserver reports, it turns out Keller wrote a letter to the Polk committee after the Journal had won its award. Back in 2002 though, the Journal torpedoed a competitor's Pulitzer before the judges made their pick.
From a December 15 post by The Jawa Report's Rusty, headlined "Media Matters Now Defending Kiddie Porn:
Look, we're no prudes around here. We like hot lesbian teacher posts as much as any one. But I've read some of the stuff being recommended by Kevin Jennings and it's the kind of reading that would make a sailor blush. No, more than that. The sailor would first blush, then take you out back and kick your ass. Then he'd kick it again just for safe measure.
Any one defending Jennings after actually bothering to read what his organization recommends deserves that same ass kicking.
Eighty advertisers have reportedly dropped their ads from Glenn Beck's Fox News program since he called President Obama a "racist" who has a "deep-seated hatred of white people." Here are his December 15 sponsors, in the order they appeared:
Perhaps we've been going about this the wrong way.
Every time a conservative pops off about how climate change is a big hoax and amounts to nothing but a huge conspiracy to blah, blah, blah, the standard response has been to point to all the reams of technical data and in-depth peer-reviewed studies that have accumulated over the decades showing that the globe is warming and that anthropogenic greenhouse gas emissions are largely responsible.
And, of course, it never works. No amount of detailed scientific data on climate change seems to convince them otherwise. And that's always been a bit of a mystery. At least, it was a mystery until I read NewsBusters this afternoon and saw this headline: "Journalists Freeze Waiting To Get Into Global Warming Conference." Without even the faintest glimmer of knowing irony, NewsBuster Noel Sheppard wrote:
A group of journalists stood for many hours in near-freezing temperatures Monday waiting to get into the United Nations climate change conference in Copenhagen.
Marvelously among them was Associated Press science writer Seth Borenstein who regularly reports on the dire consequences of -- wait for it! -- global warming.
You see, Noel Sheppard thinks that the fact that it's cold in Scandinavia in mid-December means there's no global warming ...
And then it dawned on me. There's a reason all the technical climate science data does nothing to convince conservatives like Noel Sheppard that climate change is real -- because they're too abysmally thick to grasp even the basic idea of latitude.
OK, perhaps it's not fair to call someone "abysmally thick" based on one stupid thing they wrote -- you'd have to look at the entirety of their published works to make such a decision. And that's also the reason why it's stupid to say that a cold day in Copenhagen means there is no global warming. Climate science is the study of how the global climate changes over long periods of time, not the temperature on a given day in one Nordic capital. A cold day in Copenhagen proves nothing one way or the other, nor does the record-high temperature that was set 12 days ago in Albany, New York.
I always knew that for a real debate on climate change to be possible, some basic scientific literacy was necessary. But I never imagined it would have to be as basic as "it's supposed to be cold in Scandinavia."
If not, why did ABC News and the Washington Post spend money to measure Woods' personal approval rating?
Read the news lede and try to remember that he's a golfer:
The sex scandal surrounding golfer Tiger Woods has sent his personal popularity into a tailspin, with the number of Americans who see him favorably diving to half of what it was a few years ago.
Eighty-five percent of Americans expressed a favorable opinion of Woods in a Gallup poll in 2005. That fell to 60 percent in a CNN poll as the scandal erupted earlier this month. Now it's down to 42 percent in an ABC News/Washington Post poll completed last night; about as many people, 43 percent, now see him unfavorably.
What's next, ABC/WashPost polls on movie stars?
On Fox & Friends this morning, Glenn Beck argued against regulating banks by comparing such regulations to NASCAR's efforts to increase driver safety following Dale Earnhardt's fatal crash at Daytona 500 speedway in 2001. Beck said: "Look, when Dale Earnhardt had a crash, they changed all the cars to make it safer for [the drivers]. Car crashes in NASCAR went up. OK?" He then claimed that "NFL injuries for head and neck injuries" are "higher than rugby," even though NFL athletes wear helmets. Beck's point was that "the safer you make something, the more the players, the bigger the risk they take." Despite the fact that, by his own analogy, Beck appears to be arguing that NASCAR shouldn't have increased safety standards so that the drivers (like bankers) could "feel the consequence of their own action," he's also flat out wrong in his suggestion that the improvement in safety standards for NASCAR has done nothing to improve safety. In fact, it is undeniable that the safety improvements NASCAR implemented following Earnhardt's tragic death have saved lives. Yes, the NASCAR drivers still have accidents, but the drivers are now walking away from accidents where they would have once likely sustained life-threatening injuries.
NASCAR has made dramatic safety improvements in the years since Earnhardt's 2001 death. For instance, within months of Earnhardt's death, NASCAR began mandating the use of the Head and Neck Support (HANS) device, which was created to help stabilize a driver's head and neck in the event of a crash, thus preventing fatalities such as Earnhardt's. As Popular Mechanics reports, "the weakest link in a crash is the one between the driver's head and his body. In a wreck, inertia (the tendency of mass to continue moving at a sustained velocity) keeps the body moving forward in the car. The driver's safety harness (a six-point system of lap and shoulder belts) first stops the pelvis and torso. Unrestrained, the head continues to move forward. Once the neck has extended as far as it can, continued forward momentum causes the fragile bottom of the skull to crack, killing the driver almost instantly. The Head and Neck Support, or HANS, device was created to help eliminate such fatalities." The official cause of Earnhardt's death was reported to be from a basilar skull fracture which occurred during the crash.
Other safety changes that have been implemented following Earnhardt's death include the switch to Steel and Foam Energy Reduction (SAFER) track wall barriers and the creation of the "Car of Tomorrow" -sometimes referred to as the "Car of Today"-- which boasted increased safety features. These improvements, some of which were in development prior to Earnhardt's death, have been credited in avoiding tragedy resulting from crashes at countless NASCAR races since 2002. NASCAR has not had a single fatality in any of its top three series since Earnhardt's death. Comparatively, Earnhardt's 2001 death was the fourth fatality from a NASCAR crash in 18 months. Each of the four drivers died of from a basilar skull fracture.
It's hard to figure out what Beck was thinking when he compared the banking industry to NASCAR. Is he arguing that NASCAR shouldn't have improved its safety standards because it would have resulted in less crashes overall, but more with deadly consequences? The only thing that seems clear from this analogy is that in his attempts to describe his libertarian theories of deregulation in terms he thinks the common man would understand has left him grasping at straws.
Prompted by Media Matters, the Los Angeles Times posted this correction at Andrew Malcolm's blog:
A Top of the Ticket post Tuesday on the relative popularity of Sarah Palin and Barack Obama erred in stating in the text and the headline that there was a Palin-Obama gap of 1 point. Two separate polls were cited, as the post notes, so the findings are not directly comparable.
Malcolm had used Palin's favorable rating and compared it to Obama's job approval rating, to make his false conclusion. It was the second time in three weeks that Malcolm had used the phony premise.

If so are they used automatically when a model with the same specifications is requested? Can I upload several sizes (for example say the three most probable sizes) before any consumer requests?

The co-creator isn't really meant for objects that only have minor variations (like three sizes) - for those it's better to place regular objects in your shop. Bart]]> bartv 2010-10-15T12:50:43-00:00 Re: general questions about the cocreator http://www.shapeways.com/forum/index.php?t=rview&goto=19217&th=3620#msg_19217 >>The co-creator isn't really meant for objects that only have minor variations<< Ah I see, so I'am looking for something different. Something like putting say ~ a dozen models under the same Modelpage. I would like this because if the ringdiameter is the only Thing that I want to make customizable then there aren't that many configurations possible. With "only" 12 Ringsizes there would be a pretty good chance that a customer finds a fitting one. (If I would make a lot of seperate models this would maybe clutter the gallery pages with a dozen of the same design so I don't wanna do it.) I guess you will say this wastes a lot of mamory, but it would be cummulative only if there are a lot of customers for some example ring R the whole 12 models would reside in your servers.]]> lukas.suess 2010-10-16T10:49:40-00:00 Re: general questions about the cocreator http://www.shapeways.com/forum/index.php?t=rview&goto=19369&th=3620#msg_19369 Offer rings in different sizes as a co-creator Pro: less cluttered pages, and easier ordering for your customers (which is a BIG plus, in my opinion). Pro: less work for you to maintain your shop page. For example: if you have a new photograph you'll only have to upload it once instead of 12 times. Con: more work for you during the ordering process. Regular shop items don't require any action from your side, co-creators require you to upload the 'customised model' (even if it just comes from your library with different size models). The 'Con' will outweigh the 'Pros' only when the number of orders is sufficiently high. For smaller numbers, I'd probably choose to make it a co-creator myself.

This was a delicious coffee cake. I made it for breakfast on Christmas morning. I used Creme Fraiche instead of sour cream. I didn't have the tube pan the recipe called for so I used a larger pan and cooked it for only 45 minutes. This will be a welcome addition to our breakfast / brunch menu for special occaisions.
Made this for my husband to take to work...everyone absolutely loved it! So easy to make, too. Everyone wants more and more.
This cake is wonderful, but there is a misprint. Instead of 1 Tbls. milk with the powdered sugar, it should read 2 Tbls. 1 is not enough to make it runny enough to be drizzled onto the cake. I left out the currants because no one in my family will eat raisins. It is delicious and very moist.....the perfect church or school functions dessert.
I loved this recipe but ended up not being able to use all of the cinnamon-walnut mixture because there was so much. It turned out great but next time I think I will make only 1/2 of the cinnamon stuff.
Since I don't how how else to reach you I am using this as a means to tell you that, although I am a long-time subscriber to both Bon Appetit and Gourmet this is the best web-site in my system. I refer to it all the time and just love the idea of a recipe box. Thank you so much and keep up the wonderful work you do!!!!
Delicious cake. I would use a larger pan next time. Batter spilled over during baking. It also took about 1 1/2 hours to cook. Regardless of the mess I would make it again.
This recipe was delicious. I sent two into work with my husband and it got rave reviews and lasted about 5 mins. and I have had requests for more.
We love this recipe at our house. I whip it up in my kitchenaid mixer and bake it in a bundt pan. It is delicious. I highly recommend this recipe. One for the files.

What an American-US Airways merger means for you
Friday - 2/15/2013, 11:28am EST
AP Airlines Writer
NEW YORK (AP) -- While American Airlines and US Airways announced plans to merge Thursday, it will be several months -- if not years -- before passengers see any significant impact.
Passengers with existing tickets on American or US Airways -- and members of both frequent flier programs -- shouldn't fret. No changes will come anytime soon.
American's parent company, AMR Corp., is still under bankruptcy protection and will need the court to approve the deal. US Airways shareholders will also have to vote for a merger. Then the Department of Transportation and the Justice Department must sign off. Finally, once a deal closes, the new company could operate two separate airlines for a number of years.
When the airlines finally do merge, here's what passengers can expect:
During the past five years, the airline industry has seen the combinations of Delta with Northwest, United with Continental and Southwest Airlines Co. with AirTran. Further consolidation is likely to raise airfares. The price of a domestic round-trip flight has climbed more than 11 percent since 2009, when adjusted for inflation, according to the Bureau of Transportation Statistics.
The merger will give a combined American and US Airways Group Inc. the ability to increase fares. United, Delta and Southwest would be likely to follow. Although it could also pave the way for further expansion by discount airlines such as Spirit Airlines Inc. and Allegiant Travel Co.
Your miles will be safe. After the merger is approved, the two airlines will likely combine the miles into one program and elite status from one airline will likely be honored on the other. That puts the occasional traveler closer to rewards.
The merged carrier will continue American's participation in the OneWorld alliance, which was founded by American, British Airways, Cathay Pacific and Qantas. Today, it has 12 airlines including Finnair, Royal Jordanian and Japan Airlines. US Airways will leave the Star Alliance, which includes rival United Airlines, Lufthansa, Air Canada and 24 other airlines. Alliances allow passengers to earn and redeem miles on partner airlines.
A key reason for merging is to link both airlines' networks, creating a system on par with Delta Air Lines and United, part of United Continental Holdings Inc.
There is little overlap between the two airlines' existing routes. The combined carrier will offer more than 6,700 daily flights to 336 destinations in 56 countries, making it more attractive to companies seeking to fly employees around the globe with few connections.
US Airways passengers will gain access to American's international destinations, particularly London and Latin America. American's passengers will be able to better connect to smaller U.S. cities that US Airways serves.
The combined carrier will have considerable presence in New York, Philadelphia, Washington, Charlotte, N.C., Miami, Chicago, Dallas, Phoenix and Los Angeles. It is unclear how many of those cities will keep their levels of service. In past mergers, airlines have promised not to close any hubs but have gone ahead and dramatically reduced service in once-key cities.
The merger of two airlines often means confusion and hassle for customers. Which terminal or ticket counter do they go to for check in? If there is a problem with a ticket, which company should they call? For a while, United and Continental were issuing two confirmation numbers for each ticket so either airline's staff could make changes. Problems with the integration of their frequent flier programs angered many loyal road warriors and computer glitches caused repeated flight delays. It could be months, if not years, until all American and US Airways planes get a uniform paint job.
"These things are never as seamless as they seem," said Thomas Lawton, a professor of business administration at Dartmouth College's Tuck School of business. "There will probably be some initial teething problems."

Winter!: Prepare for holiday gaming!
I loved this game when I was younger. Played it for hours and hours (days and days) with friends. This was when wrestling was all the rage of course. I still think it stands as a great game though. Lots of awesome wrestler, cool movies, and I think it had things like chairs etc to bash people with. Heh :)

SIOUX FALLS, S.D. (AP) – A federal lawsuit is seeking money for people whose land was flooded after South Dakota's Oahe Dam was built.
The Missouri River dam was dedicated in 1962. It took more than a decade to build.
The Cheyenne River Sioux tribe recently got more than $400 million for more than 104,000 acres of flooded land. The affected property was owned by the tribe and individual landowners.
The lawsuit says the federal government should also compensate individual landowners for their lost property.
The Sioux Falls Argus Leader reports the plaintiffs in the lawsuit are 95 and 83 years old. The newspaper says there are 24 tribal members still alive who lost land when the dam was built.
Lawyers estimate the lawsuit could include more than 4,000 people when relatives are included.

Cuban Roast Pork Shoulder - Main Courses
Print version
Cuban Roast Pork Shoulder
Cubans love roasting pork -- particularly in the form of a whole suckling pig.
6-pound pork shoulder, trimmed of excess fat
3 tablespoons finely minced garlic
1 teaspoon grated orange zest
1 tablespoon dried oregano
1 tablespoon ground cumin
1 tablespoon salt
1 teaspoon ground black pepper
1 cup thinly sliced onion
1/3 cup orange juice
1/4 cup lime juice
1/4 cup lemon juice
1/2 cup dry sherry
1. Make tiny slits all over the pork shoulder with the tip of a paring knife. Combine garlic, orange zest, oregano, cumin, salt, and black pepper, and mash together to form a paste. Smear it all over the pork shoulder. Place the onion slices in a bowl large enough to hold the pork snugly, and top with the pork.
2. Combine the fruit juices with the sherry and pour over the pork. Cover and marinate in the refrigerator, basting several times, overnight.
3. Bring to room temperature before proceeding. (Allow 2 hours for the pork to come to room temperature.)
4. Preheat oven to 325 degrees. Remove pork from marinade and dry well. Strain marinade and discard solids. Place pork in a clean, dry roasting pan and roast in oven, basting every half hour with the marinade, for 2 1/2 hours, or until internal temperature is about 170 degrees. (It is traditional for this Cuban roast to be well-done.) Allow the roast to rest 15 minutes before carving.
5. Carve and arrange on a platter, spooning pan juices over the meat.
Cubans love roasting pork -- particularly in the form of a whole suckling pig. You're much more likely to make the following dish, which features the same delicious marinade that's used for suckling pig. Actually, in Cuba they use sour Seville oranges for the marinade; if you can find them, substitute their juice for the orange, lime, and lemon juice in this recipe. Serve the pork with the usual suckling pig accompaniments: rice, black beans, boiled yuca, and deep-fried ripe plantains. Serves 6 generously

Tagged, I'm It!
I was tagged by SFGirlByBay (Victoria) and now by Scrappy Girl (Cathy) to join in on a blogger game which states that I need to share with you six weird things about myself. When Victoria emailed me, my immediate reply was "Only six?". I have way more.
1. I met my husband on the internet. I wrote an article that published online in '98 and he read it and wrote to me to comment on it. We quickly became penpals for a year, then met up while I was vacationing in Europe, and married in 2001. I now believe in soulmates and the power of meeting men online. I like to tease him by calling him my Internet Bride. :)
2. I am obsessed with Morrissey and The Smiths. Before getting married, I'd hop flights just to see him in concert. The best was a back to back concert in London, 1999.
3. I have 3 blog stalkers. One of them recently sent me a creepy e-Hallmark card. I get these mean emails and 'anon' comments trying to pick fights with me almost daily. I never saw myself as stalker-worthy, so on a very strange level, I'm somewhat flattered by it. I thrive under pressure, so they keep me on my toes and give me a lot to laugh about with my friends and husband.
4. When I was a teenager, I had over 200 penpals from all over the world. I'd get upwards of 25 letters per day. I spent hours writing letters and sending off the little illustrations I penciled, along with puffy stickers, of course.
5. I love roller skating and cheesy old skating rinks. Careless Whisper from Wham! always takes me back to my first ever "couple skate", a night I'll never forget because a couple skate meant everything back then.
6. As a child, I loved to rearrange the furniture in my parents' home on a regular basis. They'd walk in after work and find everything in different rooms, furniture moved, bookcases, everything. When I say regular, I'm not kidding either. Weekly. I would buy those books with the floor plans for homes inside and, using them as inspiration, I'd draw my version of the perfect house using graph paper, pencils, and my trusty wooden ruler. I was forever rearranging our home and drafting up these crazy home plans. This started at around age 7.
okay and finally… I'll a 7th to this list. I am a Flickr addict. To me, it's the best website out there. I could spend HOURS on it. Here is a link to my Flickr favorites, some shown above.
Okay… That's it! I'll tag the Hostess Blog (Jen), the Style Files (Danielle), and Bloesem (Irene) now. Maybe they'd like to play along?

How cool to learn all these weird things. I love skating rinks too. But the stalker things..whoa. That really stinks but you're taking it in stride at least, good for you!
Ok and so where was it exactly that you published this article, that your now husband commented on?? I think I need to write something there!! : ) Thanks for sharing : )

Jon – Rooms I *heart* ended because there were nearly 1,000 members (in 3 weeks – eek!) and not all of them were in compliance with Flickr group guidelines. I got tired of playing police officer, so I just ended it. I am now doing "Inspiration Saturday" on this blog with 6-10 photos of eye candy to enjoy on the weekends.
See you tomorrow!

Erin – You can't name your first pet after Morrissey because I already have my pet names lined up. I want a Morrissey (whom I'll call Mozzer for short), Oscar (after Wilde), and Sebastian (because I love that name). I obviously cannot have female pets, but if I do, I love the name Sam for a girl, so Samantha but Sam for short. We are talking about pets though, not kids. I would never name a child Morrissey or Oscar… but I've considered Patrick (Stephen Patrick) as a middle name since Morrissey's middle name is Patrick and I'm half Irish. :)

Holly – You are SO dating yourself. But, I guess I am too because I clearly recall those tunes as I raced around the rink… But I really remember Wham, Madonna, Prince, and all that 80s music from Britain the most.

hah, i used to do the same thing to my family's house. my dad would come home late at night and fall over the couch sometimes.
my poor brother would come home and my bedroom would now be in his room.
i too drew out floor plans. maybe it was before my OCD-ish-ness kicked in, because i didn't use graph paper.

That was a great list. I too loved roller skating and would go once a week with some girlfriends. We had a blast. I used to have that Wham album on cassette and "Careless Whisper" was my favorite! I've had a couple of weird comments on my blog too(not that many, I'm not popular or anything) and it just creeped me out. Don't know exactly what to do with that. Flickr is too awesome for words.
Thanks for sharing your interesting facts!

Jen – Oh yes, Journey. he he. I remember listening to the "big kids" music (on their jam boxes) each morning on the bus ride to school. "It's still a mystery…How somethin' good can hurt so badddd". I loved that song. I had a bike with a little white basket and I'd cycle by this kids house nearly everyday hoping to see him and I'd hum that song. What a hopeless nerd. ;) You know, Steve Perry did this solo show in the late 90s in Boston and I went and he was amazing. Brought back a whole other lifetime for me.
Kstyle – That forum you went to sounds awesome, what a great topic to explore. Have you blogged about it yet? When/If you do, please send me the link so I don't miss that.

luckily, convening in the virtual world doesn't seem to have had that effect yet!

Too funny. This reminds me of my friend June. She loved to mimic the guy at the roller skating rink. We'd be driving in the car and out of the blue she'd turn down the radio and say, "The next song will be a couples skate" and then she'd turn up the radio and we'd laugh ourselves to tears. Good ole 80s children!

Ivory Coast's Gbagbo to be extradited to Hague
ABIDJAN, Ivory Coast Ivory Coast's former strongman leader, who refused to accept his loss in last year's election and nearly dragged the country into civil war in a bid to retain power, could be extradited to the International Criminal Court in just hours following the issue of an arrest warrant, according to his lawyer, spokesman and officials.
Ex-President Laurent Gbagbo has been under house arrest in the tiny village of Korhogo over 300 miles (500 kilometers) north of Abidjan, since being ousted by internationally backed forces seven months ago.
His Paris-based lawyer Emmanuel Altit said he has filed an appeal to stop an international arrest warrant issued Tuesday through Ivory Coast state prosecutors but if the appeal is not granted, the ex-president could be transferred overnight.
In Abidjan, Gbagbo's spokesman Kone Katinan confirmed he had received a telephone call saying a team from The Hague was coming to transport the former ruler to the Netherlands by special flight. A Korhogo resident said a heavily armed convoy had left the town in the direction of the airport.
The development, which comes almost exactly a year to the day after Ivory Coast's disputed presidential election, was applauded by victims of Gbagbo's regime and by rights groups because of the signal it sends against impunity.
If he is transferred to The Hague, Gbagbo will become the first former head of state to be taken into custody by the tribunal since its founding in 2002. Sudanese President Omar al-Bashir has been indicted, though he refuses to surrender, while former Liberian warlord Charles Taylor and Yugoslav leader Slobodan Milosevic have been tried there by special ad hoc tribunals, rather than the world court.
The move could further stoke tension in Ivory Coast, however, because it gives the appearance of victor's justice, since grave abuses were also committed by forces loyal to the country's democratically elected leader, Alassane Ouattara, who enlisted the help of a former rebel group in order to force Gbagbo from office.
In the Abidjan neighborhoods that voted in large numbers for Gbagbo, the frustration was palpable. Retired insurance salesman Jack Koutouan, 67, called the move "an abuse of the law."
Leaders of Gbagbo's party, whose members are either under house arrest or else in exile, called the pending extradition an "injustice."
"It's an injustice to judge him alone without judging (Guillaume) Soro," said party spokesman Augustin Guehoun, naming the country's defense minister who headed the armed group that invaded the country in order to install Ouattara.
The United Nations, Human Rights Watch and Amnesty International have documented how the advancing army set fire to villages that voted for Gbagbo, and executed those that could not run away, including the elderly and the disabled, by rolling them inside mattresses and then setting them on fire.
"He is not the only one responsible (for the human rights abuses committed during the post election period)," said 30-year-old Kossonou Agingra. "There were partisans of Alassane (Ouattara) who killed - and partisans of Gbagbo who killed."
The 66-year-old Gbagbo, a history professor, came to power in a flawed election in 2000. He then failed to hold elections when his first five-year term expired in 2005, and rescheduled the vote a half-dozen times before it finally went ahead in 2010. Among conditions set by the international community, which Gbagbo accepted, were that the results would be certified by the United Nations, in order to prevent his regime from rigging the vote.

So this is the bit of attention that made him go crazy eh?
it sure jolted the whole thing up a notch.
after that the black ops girl cut the hell outta his dick to draw blood etc etc etc...
If you recall, I said the folling in that initial thread...
When I asked her point blank if she took a blood sample, she said "Yes, your hard earned tax money being put to good use"
She said the device was a ring which had a hollow Labyrinth built into it's design in the shape of a heart which stores the blood, she showed me the ring.
She went on to tell me a lot about Labyrinth's and how her & I had to go through a Labyrinth, and that there are folks who actually are "guided" to build these Labyrinth. She told me the black Op's group she works for is very into creating Labyrinths?
I am still wondering if she was
hinting she was from the Labyrinth Group/ACIO
who's existance was revealed at the htpp://www.Wingmakers.com site, I think so.

Thread: Black Op's took a Blood Sample from me - WTF?
Now check out this communication from this recent thread...
Thread: Donald Duck explaining the Pythagorean scale and how it relates to Sacred Geometry
Check it out yourself....
AC - Here you go MLH. remember there's water all over the place in your body. i think you are aware of the importance of gel-phase cytoplasm in mpo-lerm. have you connected the dots yet?
Very interesting video, Just starting to connect the dots, Not to be blunt but how do you know what you know? I am familiar with the terminology.
AC - To answer the riddle of the sphinx you must first pass through the LABYRINTH. does this answer your question?
You tell me.
For those who are not familiar with just who the LABYRINTH group is.
I know because of very real "Behind the scenes" folks have contacted me, The ACIO and Labyrinth Group are very real.
Within the ACIO, there are 14 distinct levels of security clearance. Those who are at level 12 and above are aware of the Corteum Technology Transfer Program (TTP), and they, according to Dr. Neruda, are about 120 in number, and are primarily in India, Belgium, and the United States. There are only 7 who have level 14 clearance, and they are the Directors of Intelligence, Security, Research, Special Projects, Operations, Information Systems, and Communications.
These Directors report to the Executive Director, who is known simply as "Fifteen", which is the unique classification that is reserved for the head of the ACIO. Fifteen, in the eyes of Dr. Neruda, is the most powerful human on the planet, and what I think he meant by "powerful" is that Fifteen is able to deploy technologies that are well in advance to any that our world's governments have access to. However, Dr. Neruda portrayed Fifteen and his seven Directors as a benevolent force, not a hostile or controlling force.
The eight people who comprise this inner sanctum of the ACIO are in possession of radical technologies that have been part of the Corteum TTP. However, there were also other extraterrestrial technologies that had been derived from recoveries of spacecraft or other alien artifacts, including various discoveries contained in ancient texts that had never been revealed before. All of this information and technology has been collected and developed within the ACIO scientific core – all of whom possess clearances of level 12 or higher.
This scientific core is called the Labyrinth Group, and consists of both men and women who have utilized the Corteum intelligence accelerator technologies to their advantage, and have created a secret organization within the ACIO. When Dr. Neruda was explaining this to me, it got so complicated that I asked him if he could draw me a visual diagram of how all of these organizations worked. (Click here to see a rendering of this diagram.)
The Labyrinth Group consists of all the personnel within the ACIO that qualify for levels 12, 13, and 14 clearance. Fifteen is the leader of this most secret organization. It was split from the ACIO to enable secrecy from the NSA and lower ranking members of the ACIO, which would facilitate the Labyrinth Group's agenda to create its own applications of the Corteum TTP. The Labyrinth Group is in possession of the pure technologies derived from the Corteum TTP. It takes these technologies and dilutes them to the point where the ACIO or Special Projects Laboratory will sell them to private industry and government agencies, (which includes the military).
This secret organization is the most powerful organization on earth in Dr. Neruda's opinion, but they do not choose to exercise their power in a way that makes them visible. Thus, their power is only discernible to their members. For about 40 years they have accumulated considerable wealth apart from the NSA's oversight. They have managed to build their own security technologies that prevent detection from intelligence agencies like the CIA or MI5. They are, for all practical purposes, in total control of their agenda – perhaps this is what makes them a unique organization.
Dr. Neruda had a clearance of level 12 and was still kept from vital information that only the Director level was aware. And it was assumed that even Fifteen kept vital information from his Directors, though this was never a certainty. The symbol used by the Labyrinth Group is four concentric circles. Each circle representing a clearance level (12, 13, 14, 15), and each circle had a unique insight into the agenda of the Labyrinth Group, and its coordination with the Corteum.
Fifteen was an enigma to everyone within the Labyrinth Group. He had been a physicist before he became the Executive Director of the ACIO. He was a renegade because he never interacted with the protocols and the political environment of academia. He operated outside of the institutions and was selected to be part of the ACIO because of his combination of brainpower, independence, and relative obscurity within scientific circles. He was one of the first to make contact with the Corteum and establish communication with them. The Corteum essentially appointed Fifteen as their liaison to the ACIO, and Fifteen became the first to utilize the intelligence accelerator technologies that the Corteum initially offered.
These technologies not only enhance cognitive abilities, memory, and higher order thinking skills, but also enhance the consciousness of the individual so that they can utilize the newly gained intelligence in a non-invasive manner. Meaning, they don't exploit their intelligence for personal gain at the expense of others. This apparent increase in both Fifteen's IQ and ethical consciousness caused him to create the Labyrinth Group in order to retain the pure-state technologies of the Corteum TTP from the NSA.
What technologies are released to the NSA are diluted forms of the pure-state technology, which are significantly less potent in their military and surveillance applications. What I expected to hear from Dr. Neruda was a secret organization of intelligent, evil elitists – individuals intent on exploitation and control. Why else would they want to hide beneath the cloak of such incredible secrecy?
The answer, according to Dr. Neruda, was surprising. The Labyrinth Group view themselves as the only group with sufficient intellect and technology to develop a specific form of time travel technology. They are essentially focused on this agenda because they desire to prevent future hostilities that they believe will occur unless this technology is developed. The Corteum is assisting, but despite their considerable intellects, they have been unable to develop this technology.
What I'm about to tell you will seem impossible to believe, but again, I'm only reporting what my notes say based on my initial conversations with Dr. Neruda. He explained to me that there are as many as 12 different extraterrestrial races currently involved in the past, present, and future of earth and its destiny. The ACIO, because of its mission with the NSA, is the most knowledgeable group about the various agendas of these 12 alien races.
