Making Apple Cider
1. Picking the apples off of the trees is the first step. To do this the bottom of the apple is held without the use of the thumb. It is then rotated in the opposite direction that it was grown and placed one by one into a picking basket.
2. Once this basket is full the apples are dumped into an 18 bushel box. After this box is filled, it is then transported inside.
3. On the sorting table, the apples are separated into, shelf apples, cider apples, and bad apples. The shelf apples are the best for eating and are placed out for sale. The bad apples are given away to local farmers in exchange for straw bales. The cider apples are put back into the 18 bushel box and moved to the next stage.
4. The box is moved to a lift located beside the apple sorting table. It is then lifted onto the table and dumped. The apples would be sorted and cleaned on this table. At the end of the sorting table, a conveyor belt carries the apples to the grinder.
5. Once dropped into the grinder, the apples are ground up and moved into the hopper.
6. From the hopper the apples are pushed through a large tube onto a cloth and pallet. One pallet equals one layer of apples. There are anywhere from 8 to 12 layers in one apple cider press.
7. Once there are enough layers the rolling box where the ground up apples are, are moved underneath the press. The press begins to compress the apples to a pressure up to 2000 pounds.
8. This pressure squeezes all of the juice out of the apples while leaving all of the skin and seeds in the cloth that separates the layer. This extra pulp is once again given to local farmers. This juice that is left over is cider.
9. The cider moves through a filter before is moves into the filling reservoir.
10. From this reservoir, the cider is pumped into a total of five different sized containers. These different sizes are gallon, half gallon, quart, pint, and half pint. Three different attachments are used to fill, specific to each container.
11. Once the containers are full, they are caped, labeled, and dated as a final touch.
12. These containers of cider are now ready to be shelved and sold.

SousVide SVS-09L Supreme Demi Water Oven
Product informationThe new compact SousVide Supreme Demi offers the same unparalleled cooking convenience of the original SousVide Supreme water oven but in a smaller appliance. Its size makes it a perfect fit for home kitchens, while still being roomy enough to hold 8-12 115g servings of food.
Pronounced 'soo–veed', sous vide means 'under vacuum'. Vacuum-sealed food immersed in a water bath might bring to mind memories of boil in the bag fish, but prepare yourself for the most tender meat and flavourful vegetables you have ever tasted. The sous vide slow-cooking method has long been used by gourmet chefs worldwide to set the standard for fine dining. Now, thanks to the SousVide Supreme preparing gourmet quality meals is not only within reach, but also very easy.
Vacuum-sealed bags lock in flavour, ensuring every single morsel of flavour and colour, as well as every nutrient, is preserved; this results in dishes of incomparable taste and texture. The precise temperature control and slow-cooking times consistently produce perfect meals—steak cooked medium-rare edge-to-edge; vibrant vegetables; tender, juicy chicken breasts; and ribs with meat falling off the bone. It even saves money, easing the strain on tight budgets by making tough cuts, such as flank steak or brisket, as tender as filet mignon for a fraction of the cost.
What's exciting about the sous vide method is that it is not simply another way of doing the same thing: on the contrary, it is a new and unique way of cooking that yields different and better results. Foods cooked sous vide develop flavours and textures that simply cannot be duplicated using any other cooking method—not by braising, roasting, sautéing, deep frying, broiling, grilling, or poaching.
Advantages of cooking sous vide:
- Time-saving: simply set and walk away
- Foolproof: never overcook again - enjoy perfect results, every time.
- Gourmet taste: capture the true flavour of foods
- Added nutritional value: vacuum seal bag retains natural juices and nutrients
- Easy maintenance: recycle vacuum bags and simply wipe down the SousVide Supreme
- Energy-efficient: uses energy equivalent of a 60 watt light-bulb
- Saves money: makes inexpensive cuts of meat as deliciously tender as more costly ones
The sous vide technique offers the opportunity to not just modify old recipes, but to create entirely new culinary delights. The four simple steps of sous vide cooking - season, seal, simmer and serve - require little hands-on time to dial in perfect results every time.
- Season – because the sous vide technique locks in the flavour, the food cooks in its own juices, intensifying its natural flavours. This means that you can season with a lighter hand or in many cases, after the fact
- Seal – vacuum/seal the food in air tight cooking pouches
- Simmer – drop the pouches into the precisely controlled water bath
- Serve – many foods, such as vegetables, fruits, and one-dish meals are delicious straight from the pouch. Proteins (meat, poultry, fish) are also delicious out of the pouch as well, but also benefit from a quick sear in a hot skillet, under the broiler, on the grill, or with a kitchen torch to impart the beautiful golden colour and savoury caramelized flavour to these foods
Please note: vacuum bags and sealer available separately.

Lower Olentangy Urban Arboretum Walk Maps
We are currently (April) out of the printed maps (normally found at the Arboretum kiosk, located by the Indianola Informal K-8 School parking lot, across from the School, at 251 East Weber Road, Columbus, OH 43202). After we make a few final edits to the updated walk maps (below) we will print more.
The short and long walk maps were updated April 14 2014 but we have not yet placed new markers with new trees along the path, and a few markers are missing. Marker replacement will happen, hopefully, this month.
The maps below can be printed full size on legal or tabloid sized paper (8.5″ x 14″ or 11″ x 17″) at Office Max, Staples, FedEx/Kinkos, etc. Save the map on a flash drive. You can also print the maps on legal or regular size paper on an ink jet or laser printer (click for full size, then click and drag to desktop or save the file if you want a copy).
Please send any errors, questions, suggestions, or comments to John Krygier (firstname.lastname@example.com).

The Caucus at Purdue University traces its roots to discussions and informal meetings among African American faculty and staff on the Purdue University West Lafayette campus in fall 1970. The concept for an organized group of Black faculty and staff initially was circulated by Dr. Buchanan, who held the position of coordinator of Black Student Programs at the time. These discussions continued over the next few years until September 1974, when faculty and staff members responded positively to a proposal from Mr. Sam Hay, Director of Africana Studies and Research, to develop a more formal organizational structure. An ad hoc leadership group began planning for that goal with monthly meetings at the old Black Cultural Center.
Under a constitution ratified in December 1974, African American faculty and staff members voted on April 17, 1975, to establish the Black Faculty and Staff Council of Purdue University and elected as its first officers Dr. Luther Williams (Chairperson), Ms. Marion Blalock (Vice Chairperson), Dr. Darlene [Clark-]Hine (Recording Secretary-Treasurer), Mrs. Helen Bass Williams (Corresponding Secretary), Mr. Kenneth McNight (Parliamentarian), Capt. Jerome Adams, Mr. Samuel Hay, and Ms. Phoebe Coleman (Members-at-Large). Purdue President Arthur G. Hansen was duly notified later that month. By spring 1976, the organization became known as the Black Caucus of Faculty and Staff.
The basic purpose, goals, and objectives of the Caucus have remained consistent across the life of the organization and are articulated most clearly in its Constitution and Bylaws (1984):
"The purpose of the Purdue Black Caucus of Faculty and Staff shall be:
From its earliest years, the Caucus undertook monitoring the number and status of African American staff and students at Purdue, providing mutual support, and engaging upper-administration in planning for change and advancement on matters of concern. One important, visible, and consistent function has been the Black Caucus of Faculty and Staff Annual Academic and Service Awards Program. Initially begun as an "Academic Support Fund Dance" that raised money for academic merit awards and a possible emergency loan fund, the Caucus distributed 30 "incentive awards" to Black students for the end of the 1975-76 academic year. The second annual Academic Support Fund Dance honored 60 outstanding Purdue undergraduates with cash awards, gifts, and certificated for excellence in scholarship, community service, and leadership. Continuing its tradition of honoring students using only voluntary donations, more than 200 students were honored at the 31st Annual Academic and Service Awards Program.

Hello and looking for grain Mills in CT
Hey all,
I'm new to this forum and so far the information on here has been an incredible resource.
I'm starting a little bread bakery with a wood fire oven in CT, and trying to source local ingredients as much as possible. I have a source of Hard Red Spring Wheat but so far no place to mill it. I am wondering if anyone knows of a mill in CT or MA where I could grind grain. Thanks for the help!
Re: Hello and looking for grain Mills in CT
That's a tough one: Connecticut really isn't the heartland of the grain industry anymore. It might be worth a call to this place, from Thomas Register:
Re: Hello and looking for grain Mills in CT
We mill our own for use at home. We use a rather noisy and ironically named "Whisper Mill," but my parents have a stone mill. I don't know if you would wear one out using it commercially, but you might want to look into it.

It's Finale Season - What Do You Need to See?
I don't know about you but my TiVos are very angry with me. They're working hard to record everything and I'm doing my best to keep up. But sometimes my TiVos act out and delete things before I've watched them or don't change the channel to the correct channel. TiVo says its on ABC but it's really on public access television. They are particularly fond of public access TV for some reason. Perhaps they want to see a real life version of "Parks & Recreation."
It's funny how there is so much on now and in less than a month, many of our favorite shows will be on a long summer's nap. Here are the things I need to see before the end of the season.
Jin and Sun reunion on "Lost:" There are many many things we need to see happen on "Lost" before the final music fade out on May 13 but this is the one I'm looking forward to the most. My favorite couple has spent the season in two different time zones and with not nearly enough screen time. (How cruel to have Jin live but then have him barely on for most of the season). The most emotional moment for me last season was when Sun flew away as the boat Jin was on exploded. I'm kind of expecting their reunion to top that.
Ryan to get his comeuppance on "Brothers & Sisters:" Given the panic I was in last year about this time on the Rebecca is not a Walker situation, I have to say this storyline has played out fairly well. Sure they taunted me with the possibility that Rebecca and Ryan could date (all together now, "ewwww") but that crisis seems to have been successfully avoided. Ryan has some serious anger management issues. He's mad at his dad and taking it out on the Walker siblings. As ridiculous as it is that Sarah would suddenly give him a job at Ojai and shares of stock, it does set him up for some good drama. I'm also toying with the idea that he could be a total fraud and that the real Walker sibling could still be out there. Just throwing it out there. But I don't know how many faux Walkers the show can take.
Tony is revealed to still be a good guy on "24:" Come with me into my land of denial where it rains dark chocolate, where TiVo never makes a recording mistake and you can watch new episodes featuring Veronica Mars in the FBI. It's such a happy place. Okay it's much more likely that we will get a Tony/Jack showdown before the season is out but I hope it at least includes a better understanding of what is going on with Tony and how he reached such a nefarious place.
What do you need to see before the season is over? Talk about it below.
A Fun Link
I was out to dinner on Wednesday night and I missed the "American Idol" results show. It wasn't until I woke up Thursday morning that it occurred to me, "Huh, I never checked to see who got kicked off 'Idol.'" I'm just not all that interested now that Anoop is gone. He was my favorite.
Thankfully Anoop will be on "Best Week Ever" tonight at 11p.m. on VH-1. Check out his scruffy look and the links here and here.
Quotes of the Week -- Special "Chuck" season finale section
"Son, why are you letting Sam Kinnison and an Indian Lesbian ruin your wedding?" Woody to his son Captain Awesome when Lester and Jeff sang at Ellie and Awesome's wedding on "Chuck." Thanks to Ryan and Erynn who were the first to submit this week's most popular quote.
"Thanks for saving my life at least once a week." Chuck to Casey on "Chuck." Thanks to Deanna for the quote.
"Guys, I know kung-fu." Chuck on "Chuck." Thanks to Kelly for the quote.
Quotes of the Week
"Rusty, he made nachos. That's like Kappa Tau kryptonite." Cappie to Rusty about Dale cooking for the fraternity on "Greek."
"You keep saying you're not her father but the way you act you consider her family." Derek to the Chief about Meredith on "Grey's Anatomy."
"What does that make us? CTU-lite?" Janice on "24." Thanks to Joshua for the quote.
"You did it to make his life better. It was a caring act which you did in a way that was immoral and illegal but baby steps." Wilson to House about House putting cochlear implants in a patient without his permission on "House."
"No you raised me to be passive aggressive. My bitchiness, that was self taught." Andrew to Bree on "Desperate Housewives."
"You couldn't pull off a caper if it was sitting on a plate of lox." Veronica to Ted on "Better Off Ted."
"My throat shuts up faster than a girl in math class." Kenneth about his allergy to strawberries on "30 Rock."
"Come with us Freckles." Sawyer to Kate on "Lost." The look on Juliet's face when she heard James call Kate by his nickname for her was devastating.
Exchange of the Week
"You gotta crack some skulls Chiklis style." Ryan to Michael on "The Office."
"Yeah 'The Commish.'" Michael's response.
That's all for today. I'm back next week to talk about the season (perhaps series?) finale of "Scrubs" and "Dollhouse," thoughts on "Bones," "Castle," and I'll have a review of the 15 minute series finale that will be on the "October Road" season two DVD. Have a question? Seen a familiar face? Want to nominate a quote of the week? Write me at email@example.com

The Basics of Constipation
In this article
Constipation is one of those topics few like to talk about. If you've suffered from this problem, though, you know it can be both painful and frustrating.
Almost everyone gets constipated at some time during his or her life. It affects approximately 2% of the population in the U.S. Women and the elderly are more commonly affected. Though not usually serious, constipation can be a concern.
Recommended Related to Digestive Disorders
Important It is possible that the main title of the report Hirschsprung's Disease is not the name you expected. Please check the synonyms listing to find the alternate name(s) and disorder subdivision(s) covered by this report.
Read the Hirschsprung's Disease article > >
What Is Constipation?
Constipation occurs when bowel movements become difficult or less frequent. The normal length of time between bowel movements ranges widely from person to person. Some people have bowel movements three times a day; others, only one or two times a week. Going longer than three days without a bowel movement is too long. After three days, the stool or feces become harder and more difficult to pass.
You are considered constipated if you have two or more of the following for at least 3 months:
- Straining during a bowel movement more than 25% of the time
- Hard stools more than 25% of the time
- Incomplete evacuation more than 25% of the time
- Two or fewer bowel movements in a week
What Causes Constipation?
Constipation is usually caused by a disorder of bowel function rather than a structural problem. Common causes of constipation include:
- Inadequate water intake
- Inadequate fiber in the diet
- A disruption of regular diet or routine; traveling
- Inadequate activity or exercise or immobility
- Eating large amounts of dairy products
- Stress
- Resisting the urge to have a bowel movement, which is sometimes the result of pain from hemorrhoids
- Overuse of laxatives (stimulant laxatives such as senna (Senokot)) which, over time, weaken the bowel muscles
- Hypothyroidism
- Neurological conditions such as Parkinson's disease or multiple sclerosis
- Antacid medicines containing calcium or aluminum
- Medicines (especially strong pain medicines, such as narcotics, antidepressants, or iron pills)
- Depression
- Eating disorders
- Irritable bowel syndrome
- Pregnancy
- Colon cancer
In some cases, lack of good nerve and muscle function in the bowel may also be a cause of constipation.
What Are the Symptoms of Constipation?
Symptoms of constipation can include:
- Infrequent bowel movements or difficulty having bowel movements (straining)
- Hard or small stools
- Sense of incomplete bowel movement
- Swollen abdomen or abdominal pain
- Pain
- Vomiting
There may also be occasional diarrhea resulting from hard stool obstructing the colon.

Adorable pornstar Jessie Andrews is not your conventional adult actress. She's always done things her own way.
Take for example how Jessie even got in to the adult industry. She was working as a sales associate for American Apparel when one day, a friend who worked as an extra told Jessie about how much money she made just by showing her boobs. Intrigued by the lucrative world of professional nudity, Jessie Andrews then watched a handful of porn trailers and decided that porn was something she'd do. Jessie Andrews hadn't even seen an entire porn scene before she started performing.
I wonder if she was surprised when she found out how most porn scenes end…
Then after being lauded with porn awards for her performance Elegant Angel's Portrait Of A Call Girl, Jessie Andrews followed up with announcing that she'd only perform lesbian sex scenes and proceeded to focus mostly on her DJing and her jewelry line Bagatiba.
Needless to say that over the course of her four year career as the world's favorite hipster-pornstar, Jessie Andrews has never followed the conventions of her unorthodox career.
And wouldn't you know it? Jessie Andrews has just announced that she'll be making her anal sex debut in September, and the conditions of Jessie Andrews's anal debut is totally different from any other active performer.
Usually when a pornstar that's withheld doing anal sex scenes announces their anal debut, it means that anal is now on the table for all future bookings. That won't be the case for Jessie Andrews.
Jessie has signed a unique deal with Girlfriend Films and she's set to star in The Gardner which will feature her anal sex scene debut. What's so unique about the deal? It contractually prevents Jessie Andrews from performing another anal scene until at least one year after The Gardner comes out in September 2014.
Smart. Since an anal sex debut is a big deal in the porn industry (because pornstars can charge more for anal sex scenes), it makes sense to have the exclusive anal sex rights to a specific star. Otherwise a studio drums up all this hype around an anal sex debut scene, only to have that selling point undercut by their second anal sex scene that comes out a week later.
Director B. Skow told AVN he thought it was the script, not the anal itself, that made Andrews so passionate about the project that her willing to agree to the anal sex moratorium. The script, inspired by the handful of long-term abduction, imprisonment, and sexual abuse cases recently uncovered in the US, continues Skow's fascinating psychological porn dramas and was, the director felt, a good fit for the multi-talented starlet.
"When we finished the script I really wanted Jessie for the main role of the kidnapped girl," Skow said. "It was also important to have the main character do anal because I really wanted to show how she was mentally tortured. Jessie had never done anal and I brought the project to her and she liked the idea of doing anal for the first time in a feature, so we made it happen."
It wouldn't really surprise me if this was the only porn movie Jessie Andrews starred in until September 2015, so I'm sure it was an easy decision for her to make. Jessie is a busy lady after all.
So if you like Jessie Andrews…or if you just like pornstars having anal sex on camera for the first time, keep your eyes peeled for The Gardner coming out in September.
Meanwhile, I suggest you reacquaint yourself with Jessie Andrews to see why she's the world's favorite hipster-pornstar with the video below.

Constitutional Persons: An Exchange on Abortion
Schlueter, Nathan, Bork, Robert H., The Human Life Review
Readers of First Things should by now be well-acquainted with the heated national debate-in part inspired by these very pages-over the role and legitimacy of the modern Supreme Court, armed with the power of judicial review, in a country that proclaims itself to be self-governing. Under the influence of a progressive jurisprudence the modern Court has issued controversial and innovative rulings on topics ranging from criminal due process to school prayer, rulings that often conflict with both the text and context of the Constitution, and with the history and traditional practices of our nation. But perhaps no issue better illustrates-and indeed magnifies-this conflict than abortion. Roe v. Wade and its progeny not only challenge the legitimacy of the Court, with their highly partisan and tendentious reading of the Constitution, they challenge the legitimacy of the entire government, a government that tolerates, and often even encourages, the mass destruction of those human beings who are most innocent and defenseless.
It is surprising, therefore, that on this most central constitutional and moral issue a preponderance of pro-life advocates and legal scholars continually misinterpret the Constitution. According to them, a proper reading of the Constitution would reject the concept of a privacy right to abortion, and thus return the nation to the pre-Roe status quo in which the decision of when, whether, and how to regulate abortion was left to the states. In offering this "restoration interpretation," they ignore or reject the proper interpretation, which would extend the protections of the Fourteenth Amendment to unborn persons. This is what I will call in this essay the "unborn person interpretation." They continue to do this despite the fact that both the majority in Roe and the appellants to the case conceded that if the personhood of the unborn could be established, "the appellant's case, of course, collapses, for the fetus' right to life would then be guaranteed specifically by the Amendment."
To gauge the pervasiveness of the restoration interpretation among life advocates, one need only consult these pages. Forty-five leading pro-life advocates, including Gary Bauer of the Family Research Council, James Dobson of Focus on the Family, Clarke Forsythe of Americans United for Life, Wanda Franz of the National Right to Life Committee, and Ralph Reed of the Christian Coalition, signed a much heralded joint "Statement of Pro-Life Principle and Concern" published in First Things in 1996 in which the primary legal complaint was made that Roe "wounded American democracy" by removing the issue of abortion from "democratic concern." The statement suggested two legal remedies: first, the Supreme Court could reverse Roe, returning the issue to the states; second, the nation could pass a constitutional amendment that would extend Fifth and Fourteenth Amendment due process protection to unborn persons. The statement does not even hint at the possibility of a Supreme Court ruling that would extend due process and equal protection to unborn persons. The First Things statement seems to reflect the unanimous opinion of those Justices on the Supreme Court who have urged reversing Roe, not one of whom has attempted to make or even respond in their opinions to the unborn person interpretation.
However well-intentioned, the arguments of the restoration advocates are usually grounded in an epistemological skepticism that is alien to normal constitutional interpretation and harmful to the political morality on which free government is based. While I don't object to a constitutional amendment that would extend special protection to unborn persons-especially since such an amendment would presumably lodge protection for the unborn beyond the discretion of partisan courts, and also dispose of any potential problems with respect to state action-such an amendment is constitutionally superfluous. The issue of protecting the basic rights of persons from hostile or indifferent state governments was constitutionally resolved almost one hundred and fifty years ago in the Fourteenth Amendment, purchased with the blood of hundreds of thousands of American lives in the awful crucible of the Civil War. …

Interior football club were thrashed by Serrekunda East football team by a goal to nil at the Manjai Park on the weekend.
Interior who did not play their last encounter with Banjul due to some reasons, were surprising defeated by SK East, who broke the deadlock in 74 minute when Bakary Danso put his die ahead.
The first half entered goalless nil whereby numerous chances were squandered from both sides.
The first half also witnessed a crummy game where none of them were able to find the target, interior missed to clear chance in the first half which could have catapulted them to the front of SK East.
As play continued in the 71 minutes Interior missed another clear opportunities when the ball went above the bar.
Interior were trying wholeheartedly to score SK East, but to their surprise SK East came in the 74 minute to snatch the lead interior therefore making several substitutions to find an equaliser but nothing materialized for them.
Interior Assan Njie tried all possible chances in creating for his mates to find a leveler but they were very unfortunate to share the points with SK East neither to collect all three points. Interior therefore suffers another setback, but despite not playing their last match against Banjul Utd, they were able to defeat Lamin Utd by three goals to one before the Banjul and SK East game.
In another development, Sait matty severely thrashed Tallinding 2 goals to nil.

LED Auxiliary Lights

Gnarly Adventurer
Joined: Dec 2004
Location: Albuquerque, New Mexico

About 3-4 years back I built one of the kit lights from ledsupply and was so impressed with it I machined new housings and built a few more redesigned/finned housings using larger LED drivers that up the output by about a third. Amazing how much light can come out of that small of a unit! My whole light is two inches in diameter but the actual led is about 1/8 inch diameter with a .8 of on an inch diameter lens!
A couple months back a buddy and I did a side by side comparing my light to these Monster lights. Although they both put out about the same amount of light the Monster's have a lot more focused beam where mine are more of a flood type. Hating to be out done I immediately orderd a couple of the Monster's as well.
Two of these on the front of a scooter is WAY overkill! I only added one!
I was coming home the other night after finally taking the time to aim it correctly and was on a secondary highway. As I crested a hill that is about 3 miles distant from the next hill a car came over that distant hill and even at three miles he flashed his brights for me to dim mine! YEAH, they are THAT bright!
Use caution if using them in any non off road application though, as I am positive they would get you a ticket.

Rethinking Monogamy
Over the past few weeks, I've been hearing quite a bit about monogamy—especially within the context of human marriage and what is supposedly "natural." I use the quotes intentionally. Mostly because I'm so surprised that so many people are convinced that monogamy—heterosexual, human monogamy, in particular—is some type of biological default. Science doesn't quite back […] [Read More]

Summary: EUHR Solana on approval of Constitution referendum in Iraq (25 October 2005: Brussels)
Javier SOLANA, EU High Representative for the Common Foreign and Security Policy (CFSP) made the following statement after today's announcement in Iraq of the outcome of the recent constitutional referendum in Iraq.
"I welcome the announcement of the results of the Iraqi constitutional referendum and note with satisfaction the high voter turnout, in particular of the Sunni community. The strong participation of the electorate, under precarious security conditions, is an important contribution to the establishment of democracy in Iraq. In this respect, the work of the Independent Electoral Commission of Iraq also deserves to be commended.
The results, though overall positive, shed light on deep-seated divisions among the communities of Iraq. It is important to exert all efforts to overcome these divisions and to launch preparations for the legislative elections in December as early as possible."

Spokesman for U.S. State Department Assailed for His Invectives against Election in DPRK
| Pyongyang, March 13 (KCNA) -- The spokesman for the DPRK Foreign Ministry gave the following answer to a question put by KCNA on Thursday as regards the invectives let loose by the spokesman for the U.S. State Department against the election of the deputies to the Supreme People's Assembly (SPA) of the DPRK:
As already reported, the election of the deputies to the 13th SPA successfully held on Mar. 9 in the DPRK strikingly demonstrated the absolute support, deep trust and indomitable will of the service personnel and people of the DPRK to remain single-mindedly loyal to the respected Comrade Kim Jong Un, holding him in high esteem as the unitary center of the unity and leadership.
All its citizens of the DPRK took part in the election to consolidate as firm as a rock the people's power chosen by themselves, fully enjoying their rights as the genuine masters of the state and society, and voted for the candidates with loyalty and patriotism.
The spokesman for the U.S. State Department was so impudent to say that there is no democracy as regards the election of deputies to the SPA. This is nothing but a ridiculous jargon of those who can not understand the advantageous election system of the DPRK as they are engrained with repugnance toward the Korean-style socialist system.
The U.S. had better feel ashamed of the American-style election which decides everything with fraud and swindle and its dollar-almighty election system in which a duck on a pond can be a president if it has money, and mind its own affairs before impudently finding fault with others.
No matter how desperately the U.S. may try to slander the social system of the DPRK and pull it down, its single-minded unity will be further consolidated and Korean-style socialism centered on the popular masses will emerge victorious.

THE Black Mambas Football Club awards ceremony, which was set to for last night at the Police Ground, has been postponed. The organisers said they had to move the event because some sponsors were not available for the show.
The ceremony was postponed last year after officials felt they could not hold a party in the week Zimbabwean football was mourning Adam Ndlovu.
The police outfit, who escaped relegation in the final stages of the championship race, were expected to honour outstanding players who helped the team to avoid the chop.
Warumwa Warumwa had to wait until the final day of the Castle Lager Premier Soccer League programme to know their fate.
Fortunately, they managed to beat FC Platinum 4-2 to see off a determined Gunners, who lost out on goal difference despite beating Chicken Inn 2-0 on the final day.
The two teams shared the same goal difference but Mambas survived by virtue of scoring more goals.
Had Gunners scored one goal more or had Mambas scored one goal less, on that final day, the whole picture would have changed dramatically.
Mambas enjoyed a good relationship with BancABC who were the club's principal sponsors.

World junior champion Anton Cooper recovered from a crash on the final lap to edge out home town rider Dirk Peters to win the BikeNZ national cross country mountain bike title in Rotorua today.
The pair, both still in the under-23 ranks, spread-eagled the combined field of elite and under-23 riders as they fought a tight battle throughout the arduous seven-lap contest in the superb Whakarewarewa Forest.
London Olympian Karen Hanlen also had a fall early in the elite women's race but recovered to successfully defend her title in emphatic fashion.
Peters set the pace from the start as he and Cooper quickly cleared out from the field, eventually finishing three minutes clear of the third placed rider, winning in 1:30.39.
Cooper never got in front until the final lap but fell on the downhill, although Peters could not slip ahead on the single track with the junior world champion holding the Rotorua rider off by the slimmest of margins.
"I managed to get a wee break. I knew I needed a break there to hold Dirk off. He was amazingly strong today and all I could do was sit on and wait for my opportunity on that final lap," Cooper said.
"I fell about 25 seconds before the finish which got the heart-rate going. It was pretty nerve-wracking but I managed to get up and hold on. If he had got in front then he would have won.
"It is such a great feeling to win the national jersey. It means I will be able to wear it overseas at the World Cups and that is of huge importance to me and I will wear it with great pride."
The race attracted a large number of spectators, with the championships part of the inaugural Rotorua Bike Festival.
"It was a great race for the spectators and Dirk on his home track had a lot of support. It felt like a World Cup round, it was amazing," Cooper said.
Peters, who will head to Europe again this year, is buoyed by his strong form on last week's mountain bike cup and the national championships.
"I knew it was going to be pretty close. I think he probably had the edge on me but with the hometown advantage I got lifted that extra couple of percent and nearly got there.
"I kept throwing in attack after attack but couldn't drop him and he got ahead before the final downhill. It was so narrow I couldn't get past when he crashed and it came down to that last sprint."
Peters said to race Cooper provides an international benchmark.
"It is good to have a yard stick with Anton. We know he is world class so if we can match ourselves against him. It gives me an good indication of where I am at compared with other riders overseas and good for my confidence to know that I can be competitive in Europe hopefully."
Hanlen, the remarkable Whakatane mother of two, fell behind Queenstown's Kate Flucker after her fall on lap two. But the Olympian then turned it up a notch, to reclaim the lead and push clear, winning in 1:34.26 for the six laps, with Flucker second nearly three minutes behind.
Wellington's Samara Sheppard, in her first year in the elite category, was third a further three minutes back.
"I am really pleased. It is a special privilege to win the national title. I had to work hard for it. I was pushed really hard in those first two laps before I managed to get a break. It is good to see another really good rider in Kate coming on strongly.
"It was fantastic. The crowd was amazing and I got a lot of support from friends and family from home and the big mountain bike community here. It really pushed me on. It was so cool with all the people out there today."
It was also a special day for former national champion and Commonwealth Games representative Mike Northcott (Tokoroa) who finished fifth overall before announcing his retirement from elite racing after 16 years at the top level.
Rotorua's Amber Johnson and Te Awamutu's Sam Gaze both produced outstanding efforts to win the under-19 titles.
The championships conclude tomorrow with the downhill championships.

I'm going to inspect my first bunch of potential investment properties tomorrow!
I'm using an inspection template which goes through various aspects of the home. However, I have never done this before, and will just use the template as a guide to tick things off.
Once I've inspected the place myself, do I need professionals to inspect it too - such as termite inspections, or some other professional home inspection to check whether things are in working order and are fine?
Or will the inspection that I personally conducted be enough?

Washington D.C. Forecast: Next Up...Stronger Winds and Colder Air
January 21, 2014 - 11:12 PM
Text size Decrease Increase
After the snow ends, even gustier winds and colder temperatures will arrive.
- Overnight:
- Becoming Windy and Colder
- Temperatures: Steadily Falling 2-12 degrees by morning
- Wind: N 15-25 mph Gusts to 35 mph
- Tomorrow:
- Partly Cloudy, Breezy and Cold
- Highs: 14-18 degrees
- Wind: N/NW 15 -25 mph Gusts up to 30 mph
- Thursday:
- Partly Cloudy and Cold Withe Flurries Possible
- Highs: around 20 degrees to the lower 20s
- The area of snow is slowly moving eastward towards the coast but it will take a bit longer to cross the bay.
- As the coastal low intensifies, the winds will increase in speed. Considerable blowing snow and bone-chilling wind chills will make outdoor exposure uncomfortable and dangerous. Travel will be difficult as well, especially with falling temperatures. While the final snowfall total won't be especially memorable, I think the lingering effects of the snow combined with the strong winds and severe cold will quite memorable and miserable. Be safe if you venture out late tonight or tomorrow morning

A while back I bought a tub of manteca- or pork fat- from a local Mexican market. When I first purchased it the lard was fresh and had a butter-like consitancy and it smelled like carnitas (because it's the rendered fat from carnitas). I've used it sparingly here and there, but the problem is I can't remember how long ago I purchased it.
I've keep it refrigerated and today I went in for a spoonful for refried beans and the texture was weird- grainy and clumpy rather than smooth and buttery. There is no expiration date on the tub.
Does anyone know how long manteca lasts? Is it still safe to use given its texture or am I better off throwing it out?
Thanks in advance!

Grey's Anatomy
Where Is Grey's Anatomy Filmed, Anyway?
Much as we'd like to deny it, Grey's Anatomy is indeed a fictional series set in the fictional Seattle Grace Mercy West Hospital. So which halls do the docs traverse as they make their rounds? Where are the ORs in which patients live and die? The answer is, as you might expect, Hollywood — or just to the east of it, in Los Feliz, at the Prospect Studios.
The Grey's set occupies at least two sound-stages and includes most of the hospital, Joe's bar, and the characters' residences. A tour of the set led by James Pickens, Jr. is included on the Season 2 DVD and reveals some interesting fun facts. (For example, did you know that the MRI machine is real? Were you aware that the names on the OR schedule whiteboard are those of crew members?) However, another filming location is used for exterior shots of the hospital and scenes located in the atrium, in the Chief's office, and on the catwalk. Those are all filmed at the Sepulveda Ambulatory Care Center in North Hills. It's a working healthcare facility with real patients and doctors, so the cast and crew can only film after 5 p.m. Sounds like it's time to fake an ailment to try to get a glimpse of the stars...

The owner of the 2.5-acre cemetery near Loch Raven Boulevard says he is trying to clean up, but he has racked up nearly $30,000 in unpaid county fines and fees for persistent problems such as overgrown vegetation, junk scattered on the grounds and broken windows. Neighbors also say the property is a hot spot for teen troublemakers.
Now, Baltimore County Councilman David Marks plans a zoning change to limit future development of the Oakleigh Pet Cemetery property. Separately, Marks intends to introduce legislation aimed at protecting the rights of owners of pets buried there.
The property went to tax sale in 2010 for unpaid taxes as well as code violations, county officials said. A company called Azure Capital Management LLC bought the lien, and this March, the firm filed court papers to start the foreclosure process. The owner would need to pay more than $52,000 to remove the property from tax sale, county officials said.
"It's a real eyesore, and it's a real problem property for us," said Marks, a Perry Hall Republican whose family buried a cat named Tuna at Oakleigh in the 1980s. "There's not the protections you have under human cemeteries."
The county adopted regulations on pet cemetery maintenance a few years ago in response to residents' complaints. But Marks said those who have paid for lots should be protected in case the land is ever redeveloped. Some people have paid hundreds of dollars to bury their pets there, according to interviews and county records.
The bill being drafted by Marks would require cemeteries to notify owners of buried pets when the land is sold, and to move the remains to another graveyard. People who have bought but not yet used a plot would have to be reimbursed under the bill, which he plans to introduce next month.
Cemetery owner John Williams, who bought the property in 2009, said he doesn't want to see it developed. Williams said he hired a maintenance person about two months ago but that the employee has been sick and unable to work recently. "I want to see it in tip-top shape," he said of the cemetery.
Williams said he feels overwhelmed by the amount he owes but that he's trying to find the money to remove the cemetery from tax sale. All the code enforcement citations feel like a personal attack, he said, as if county inspectors are writing tickets out of spite. "It's so frustrating to me because I feel that the county is pushing their weight on me," Williams said.
A lawyer with Azure Capital Management LLC could not be reached to comment.
Area resident Marshall Chalkley has several dogs buried at the cemetery and said he's upset by the condition of property. When his current beagle dies, he said, he'll make different arrangements.
"She's not coming here," he said. "She's going to be cremated."
The cemetery is a source of neighborhood lore. Some neighbors say they remember hearses driving up to the graveyard. Others have heard that actress Shirley Temple's pet monkey is buried there, said area resident Jessica Moore, who added that she has tried to research whether that's true but could not confirm the tale.
Parts of the cemetery are maintained, the grave sites cleared and visible. One family buried a ferret named Princess Reich, engraving her tombstone with the words, "Our precious little girl." Another pet named Cupcake is memorialized as "our beautiful Miss America." One grave site is marked "Chico" and "Chico II." Another lists nearly a dozen poodles — including Chi-Chi, T-Nee and T-Na — that appear to have belonged to one family.
A house on the site once was home to four families, even though it was not registered as a rental property and was deemed unsafe, according to county records.
A code-enforcement file on the cemetery is filled with photos of the property, as well as tickets and hearing records.
County code enforcement chief Lionel Van Dommelen acknowledged that fines alone may not be enough to prompt property owners to clean up.
"You can only keep putting fines on a piece of property for so long," Van Dommelen said, adding that unpaid fines are assumed by the buyer when such properties are sold. "If you place too many fines on a piece of property, even an investor at a tax sale is not going to want to buy that property."

Yota Dumping WiMax for LTE
Article Comments 42
May 21, 2010, 2:29 PM by Eric M. Zeman @phonescooper
Russian internet provider Yota has given up on plans to launch a 15-city WiMax network this year and will instead invest $100 million to roll out Long Term Evolution across five Russian cities before the end of 2010. In September 2009, Clearwire, along with Russia's Yota and UQ Communications of Japan, all agreed to work together on the business and technical pieces of their respective WiMax businesses so that they may support international roaming in the future. Yota's peers haven't commented on how this change in wireless networking technology will alter their agreement, but it is clear U.S. customers of Clearwire's WiMax services will not be able to roam on WiMax in Russia. Clearwire and its business partner Sprint have both separately hinted that a switch from WiMax to LTE is a possibility.

The House GOP caucus in Annapolis put out a statement this afternoon that they are "troubled" by the behavior of Republican Del. Don Dwyer, who has acknowledged being drunk while piloting a speedboat that collided with another vessel and sent six people to the hospital.
Dwyer admitted that he had a .2 blood alcohol level -- more than twice the legal limit -- when he was driving his boat Wednesday evening in the Magothy River. Dwyer's boat sank. Two adults and four children were hospitalized.
