text: Deals Adaptive Planning gets Salesforce seal of approval (money) October 30, 2013 6:51 AM Eric Blattberg 0 Corporate performance management (CPM) company Adaptive Planning just got some valuable market validation. The Palo Alto, Calif.-based company extended the $45 million funding round it raised in May to a few additional investors, including Salesforce.com and former Oracle CFO Jeff Epstein, Adaptive Planning announced Wednesday morning. In a call with VentureBeat last night, Adaptive Planning CEO John Herr declined to disclose the amount of new investment. It's more about strategy than capital, he said. "Salesforce means a lot," said Herr. "It's a very powerful brand on Main Street." Epstein, meanwhile, is now a senior advisor to Adaptive. Epstein has helped Adaptive develop its business and build a community of chief financial officers, said Herr. Adaptive Planning offers a suite of cloud-based software for budgeting, planning, forecasting, and data discovery. It has more than 1,800 customers, from very small businesses to major enterprises like Coca-Cola, Nissan, and Toyota. It competes with solutions from Oracle, IBM, and SAP, but its cloud-based offering and strong partner network have made it a leader in the CPM space.

Kimye is having a baby. And Jesus wept. Somewhere Ray J is crafting his perfectly shady congratulatory tweet, meanwhile Amber Rose is singing "thank God I dodged a bullet" in her best Beyonce octave. Kim is still married to Kris Humphries. Maybe that's why Kanye shouted out his "Perfect Bitch" at his last Revel performance in Atlantic City by referring to her as his "baby mama." A proud mommy moment for Kim.
During his performance of "Lost In the World" Kanye told the band to stop the music so he could officially confirm the rumors surrounding the world's most famous fetus since Blue Ivy Carter. "Can we make some noise right quick for my baby mama?" "Play it from that point right here because I did write this song about her." The crowd's thunderous applauds indicates they were happy for the woman that got famous for her "hometape" that got impregnated by a rapper while still being married to an NBA player. The American dream!

|Printable auction results for all items in the 2009 February Long Beach, CA Signature US Coin Auction.
Seldom Offered 1857-O Ten Dollar, AU531857-O $10 AU53 NGC. As of (12/08), no amount of money could buy a certified Mint State 1857-O eagle--such a coin simply does not exist. The Uncirculated coin listed in the Garrett-Guth reference currently resides in an NGC AU58 holder. In fairness, that example was sold as "BU" as part of the October 1994 Stack's sale of the James A. Stack, Sr. Collection, where it realized $26,400 and still holds the auction record for the issue.
Understanding the rarity of the 1857-O ten is not difficult. Only 5,500 pieces were struck to begin with and those coins--as with most New Orleans gold issues--entered circulation. During the various gold melts of the ensuing decades, the 1857-O eagle was simply a bullion coin and met with the same fiery fate as much more common coins. Numismatists of yesteryear were apt to collect by date only, and even those collectors would have been wealthy by the standards of their time to pursue a set of ten dollar gold pieces. As a result, collectors today must compete for one of 15 or so Almost Uncirculated specimens, which are seldom offered at auction.
Both sides of this brassy-gold AU53 specimen display luster in the recessed areas. The design elements are well impressed, save for the usual softness in the star centers. A few small marks on each side are within the confines of a coin that has seen some light circulation.

Raspberry-Rhubarb Crumble with AlmondsJune 24, 2014 at 5:25 pm | Posted in cobbler, crisps, shortcakes, sweet things | 9 Comments
Tags: baking, dessert, fruit
Have you already moved on from rhubarb for the year? I haven't– it's one of my absolute favorites, and I'm happy to pick up a pound from the Greenmarket every week till it disappears. Right now, I'm in that glorious overlap moment when I can find rhubarb and raspberries at the same time. Why is strawberry-rhubarb the combo that gets all the love? Raspberry-rhubarb bakes up deliciously. Raspberries are often less sweet than strawberries, but I've always liked to keep my rhubarb desserts on the tart side anyway. And that hot pink color…I'd paint my whole house that color if it wouldn't look like (ummm) questionable things might be going on inside.
I'm embarrassed to admit that I'm confused about the difference between a crumble and a crisp (I guess we didn't cover that in pastry school), but I do know that they are both easier than pie- truly- and, I think, just as tasty. Flipping through Tina Nordstrom's charming latest book Tina Nordström's Scandinavian Cooking, which is less a tome of traditional Scandinavian recipes and more a collection of tasty things from around the world she likes to cook in her Swedish kitchen, I saw a recipe for Raspberry Crumble with Almonds that I knew would work with the addition of rhubarb (and a bit of extra sugar). The sweetness of the crumbly (and crisp!) topping balances the fruit nicely. You can probably further tinker with the recipe quite successfully, if you'd like. Swap the vanilla flavoring for cardamom, use oats instead of almonds, and so on. The one thing I wouldn't mess with, though, is the ball of ice cream on top. That's a given, at least at my house.
Raspberry-Rhubarb Crumble with Almonds- serves 6
adapted from Tina Nordström's Scandinavian Cooking by Tina Nordström
Steph's Notes: The original recipe in the book is for a straight-up raspberry crumble. If you want to make this without the rhubarb, use 500g raspberries (fresh or frozen) and cut back both the white sugar and the vanilla sugar in the fruit by half (leave the topping as-is). If you don't have vanilla sugar, replace with an equal amount of granulated sugar and a dash of vanilla extract. I like to keep the fruit on the tart side, since the topping's quite sweet, but if you know you'd like your rhubarb sweeter, add up to a couple of extra tablespoons of sugar to the fruit mixture.
for the crumb topping
3/4 cup, plus 1 1/2 tbsp (115 g) all-purpose flour
1 tsp baking powder
1 cup (100 g) coarsely chopped or slivered almonds
1/2 cup (100 g) granulated sugar
pinch of salt
5 1/3 tbsp (75 g) unsalted butter, room temp
for the fruit mixture
about 1/2 lb (250 g) rhubarb, cut into 1″ lengths
about 1/2 lb (250 g) raspberries, fresh or frozen
4 tbsp sugar
2 tsp cornstarch
2 tsp vanilla sugar
-Start by making the crumb topping. Combine all dry ingredients for the topping in a medium bowl, and use your fingers to mix it all together with the butter. I like a combination of some clumps and some sandy crumbs. Put the topping in the fridge or freezer while you preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C).
-For the filling, toss the rhubarb pieces, raspberries, sugar, cornstarch and vanilla sugar directly in the bottom of a greased ceramic or glass baking pan, 8-10″ in diameter (22-24 cm).
-Sprinkle the chilled topping evenly over the fruit mixture. Bake until topping turns golden and juices are bubbling, about 35-40 minutes, turning at the halfway point. If you notice that your topping is browning too quickly, turn the heat down to 350°F for the remainder of the baking time.
-Let cool on a wire rack at least 30 minutes before serving.
Please note that the publisher, Skyhorse Publishing, sent me a copy of this book.
Tuesdays with Dorie BWJ: Phylloccine Ice Cream SandwichesJune 17, 2014 at 12:01 am | Posted in groups, ice creams & frozen, sweet things, tuesdays with dorie | 14 Comments
Tags: fruit, ice cream
Gale Gand's Pylloccine Ice Cream Sandwiches are the cutest things to come out of my kitchen in a long time– retro and adorbs!
I had no idea what "phylloccine" meant, and went along pronouncing it incorrectly in my head all week, until about five minutes ago, when I finally read the recipe intro and found the explanation was right there all along. "Phylloccine" equals "phyllo fettuccine," which just equals phyllo dough rolled up and cut into long strips. The strips get scrunched into sandwich-able rounds and buttered and sugared and baked. While the recipe calls for a mix of summer berries with this, I just had strawberries and simply diced them and tossed them with simple syup. It also calls for whipped cream, but I skipped it entirely…the ice cream was plenty, I think. Gotta trim calories where I can.
These were really great and easy to make. I loved the crispy, sugary phyllo. Apart from baklava, I seem to forget how good phyllo is in sweet applications. Unlike a regular ice cream sandwich, these are too delicate and crumbly to pick up and eat with your hands (not to mention all those loose fruit bits), so definitely grab forks.

Tuesdays with Dorie BWJ: Savory Wheat CrackersJune 3, 2014 at 12:01 am | Posted in BWJ, groups, other savory, savory things, snacks, tuesdays with dorie | 12 Comments
Tags: baking, savory, snacks
Jeffrey Alford and Naomi Duguid's Savory Wheat Crackers were a nice little snack to munch on with a chilled glass of wine this past (very fine) weekend. I've made crackers before…here, for instance. Also, in the restaurants I've worked in, pastry always had to make the crackers to go with the cheese plates. Rolling cracker dough out with a pasta machine (or a sheeter like we had at my first job) is my pro tip from those days. It gets them super thin, although you have to use a fair amount of flour to not shred the dough in the roller. I took these to the second thinnest setting in my machine and then topped my crisps with nigella seeds, ground coriander and fleur de sel. This whole wheat cracker dough is super basic….no leavening necessary. It comes together with a whiz in the food processor, although my dough was a little sticky, so I added some supplemental AP flour to make it behave. The recipe makes a lot of dough…even the half recipe I made yielded tray after tray of crackers! They have to be rolled, cut and baked in batches. It was like a Nabisco factory in my kitchen on Sunday. Actually, I forgot to cut two of the trays before I put them in the oven– I just broke those into big shards after they were cool. Real Nabisco would so fire me. You need a ripping hot oven for these and will likely have to tack on a few minutes to the stated baking time. My crackers took 6-7 minutes to bake through, rather than the three minutes in the recipe. One minute too many, though, and the crackers will be charcoal (and yes, I did torch a tray myself)! I made a little spread out of famer's cheese and flowering chives to snack on with these crackers. I have lots more to eat up, so I'll have to think up some other ideas.

Tuesdays with Dorie BWJ: Tropical NapoleonsMay 20, 2014 at 5:51 pm | Posted in groups, other sweet, sweet things, tuesdays with dorie | 13 Comments
Tags: baking, dessert, fruit
Charlotte Akoto's recipe for Tropical Napoleons is in a section of the book called "Grand Pastries," which seems to mean plated desserts. I have to say that a lot of them look kinda dated to me, but that doesn't mean they don't still taste great. This dessert, with layers of coconut and sesame meringue, fruit and rum whipped cream is really light, but so satisfying. I wouldn't turn down Eaton mess or a pavlova, so I knew I would like this one, too.
Despite its "grand" status, this recipe isn't really that involved. Whipped cream and sliced fruit are easy enough to prep. If you don't have a good selection of tropical fruit (I wish I could buy passion fruit in Brooklyn from any corner fruit guy like I could when we lived in Sydney), just go with straight-up berries. Even the meringue is a simple one to make, and a quick stencil cut from a yogurt lid makes perfect meringue disks. I baked my meringues on a Silpat and they took almost twice as long as the recipe said to get fully crisp. If anything gives you trouble, it will be getting those meringues off your sheet pan after they're baked– they're meant to be really thin, which also makes them really brittle. I only broke one before discovering that if I ran an offset spatula carefully around its outer edge before kind of pressing the spatula down into the Silpat and scooting it underneath the meringue, it would come off in one piece. The meringues are sweet, so I cut back a bit on the sugar in the cream.

Tuesdays with Dorie BWJ: Scallop and Pesto PursesMay 6, 2014 at 12:01 am | Posted in groups, other savory, savory things, tuesdays with dorie | 18 Comments
Tags: appetizers, savory, snacks
I've been trying to lay off the sweets a bit lately. No more dessert every night, I'll mostly keep that to weekends. This is because I can tell my trainer would like it if I dropped a few pounds. The things I do for this guy….I even got up early to run a 5K on Sunday! He's right of course, and he has made me strong, so at least that running was a piece of cake (unlike the cake I'm not eating).
I do miss baking stuff more than once a week, though, so it's nice to have a little savory project to put together. To tell the truth, these Scallop and Pesto Purses, courtesy of Gale Gand, were more of a quick assembly task than a real baking project. Take a nice, fat sea scallop and a schmear of pesto, bundle it up in a phyllo dough wrapper and pop it in the oven. These purses are intended to be elegant appetizers, but I will probably never have a dinner party sophisticated enough to serve them (pigs in a blanket, anyone?). After I snapped this photo, I put a few of them together on each plate with a bit of salad, and we had them as dinner…with the rosé, obvi. They were really tasty and the scallops cooked nicely inside (which I was worried about since I couldn't really tell what was going on in there). The juices from the scallop did make the bottom of the purses soft, but we were knife and forking it, so it wasn't a big deal.
I pounded together a little bit of parsley pesto for these in my new mortar and pestle. It was my first time making pesto this way– normally I use the food processor– and it was so good, I made more a few nights later for pasta.

Tuesdays with Dorie BWJ: Potato LefseApril 1, 2014 at 12:01 am | Posted in breakfast things, groups, pancakes & waffles, tuesdays with dorie | 22 Comments
Tags: bread, breakfast
I didn't really know much about Potato Lefse before Beatrice Ojakangas's TWD recipe of the week. I quizzed my half-Norwegian friend, and she told me that they are kind of like crêpes and that there's also a non-potato variety. She said she's never made them herself, but buys premade ones and reheats them. Ha–looks like I'm one up on you now, Karen! That was mean…I should invite her over for leftovers and see what she thinks.
Making the lefse dough was easy. It basically starts with super-smooth mashed potatoes that you air dry in the fridge overnight. Then the next day, you knead flour into the mash and divide the dough into pieces. Shaping and cooking the dough is where it gets tricky. There are a whole host of special tools that hard-core lefse enthusiasts use– a grooved rolling pin and a cloth-covered round board to roll the dough, a big, flat round griddle to cook the lefse on and a long, flat wooden stick to lift and flip them. Darn, I don't have any of that stuff. I poked around the cabinets to see what I could use instead. This is what I came up with: my regular rolling pin and my Silpat to roll the dough, and a flat cast iron crêpe pan and stick that I have. It would have been easier to cook these with another person, so one could roll the lefse dough balls while the other cooked them off. By myself, it was kind of a process, but I got better as I moved along. My crêpe pan is only 11″ wide, as opposed to 16″ for a lefse pan, so I divided my dough into 16 balls instead of 12. With plenty of flour, I was able to get them rolled nice and thin on the Silpat. I didn't even need that stick to lift them off…I was just kind of able to flip and peel them onto my hand, tortilla-style. They cooked up perfectly and got nice speckles on the crêpe pan, and the stick came in handy for flipping them.
Apparently, much like a crêpe, you can wrap lefse around lots of fillings (even hot dogs–gotta try that!), but we went the sweet route for breakfast, with butter and cinnamon sugar on some an lingonberry jam on others. They do taste slightly potatoey, but it's a pleasant earthiness that was surprisingly nice with the sweet fillings. For the recipe, see Baking with Julia by Dorie Greenspan. As Sandra pointed out there's a video of Beatrice making lefse alongside Martha Stewart.

Blood Orange Yogurt Loaf CakeMarch 26, 2014 at 4:01 pm | Posted in cakes & tortes, simple cakes, sweet things | 14 Comments
Tags: baking, cake, citrus, dessert, fruit
It might technically be spring, but it sure doesn't feel like it yet. I'm still wearing a scarf inside, my down parka outside, and there was even talk of pulling snow boots out again last night. Oh, bother. A bright spot here, while I wait for spring to really show up, is that the citrus is still good. I think we're at the tail-end of the preciously short blood orange season. Blood oranges are so sweet and vibrantly colored– I still feel surprised every time I cut one open.
I've made lots of yogurt cakes here (and even yogurt cupcakes, too). They stay moist for days, feel less guilty than pound cakes and they're a great match for citrus, so I looked around on-line to see if anyone had a good one using blood oranges. Most cakes that I saw seemed to resemble another one I'd made, Ina's Lemon Yogurt Cake, swapping out the lemon zest and juice for blood orange. At its core, so did this one but it has a few tweeks that set it apart for me. Subbing some of the AP four with cornmeal gives the cake a more rustic taste and texture. Swapping the plain vegetable oil for olive oil adds to its fruitiness. Cutting out just a bit of the sugar and forgoing the powdered sugar glaze keeps it from being overly sweet. Don't worry– a jewel toned blood orange juice soaking syrup drenches the top and seeps into the cake, so you still get enough of that sticky sweetness to call this dessert.
P.S.: If you like cocktails, add a little vodka and a splash of simple syrup to blood orange juice, top it off with seltzer and ice, and you'll have the most brilliantly colored drink you've ever seen.
Blood Orange Yogurt Loaf Cake-makes an 8 1/2″ x 4 1/4″ loaf cake
adapted from Ina Garten and foodonfifth.com
for the cake
1 cup all-purpose flour
1/2 cup yellow cornmeal,
2 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp kosher salt
3/4 cup granulated sugar
zest of two blood oranges
1 cup yogurt (Greek or regular, but preferably not non-fat)
3 eggs
1/2 tsp vanilla extract
1/3 cup olive oil
for the soaking syrup
1/3 cup freshly squeezed blood orange juice (from the two zested oranges)
2 tbsp. granulated sugar
-Preheat the oven to 350°F. Grease an 8 1/2″ x 4 1/4″ loaf pan and line the bottom with parchment paper. Grease and flour the pan.
-In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, cornmeal, baking powder, and salt. In a large bowl, rub the 3/4 cup sugar and the blood orange zest together with your fingers until fragrant. Whisk in the yogurt, eggs, vanilla and olive oil. Slowly whisk the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients, switching to a spatula, if needed. Mix until just fully combined.
-Pour the batter into the prepared pan and bake until a cake tester placed in the center of the loaf comes out clean. Start checking for doneness at 40 minutes.
-When the cake is done, allow it to cool in the pan for 10 minutes. While you're waiting, make the soaking syrup by combining the 1/3 cup blood orange juice and remaining 2 tbsp sugar in a small pan. Bring it up to the boil and simmer until the sugar dissolves and the mixture is clear, about a minute. Set aside.
-Carefully place the cake on a baking rack over a sheet pan. Use a skewer to poke holes in the top. While the cake is still warm and the syrup is hot, pour the syrup mixture over the cake and allow it to soak in. (You can get all the syrup to absorb into the cake or reserve a little bit of it for drizzling over the cut slices, if you'd like).
-Cool completely before slicing.
Tuesdays with Dorie BWJ: Mocha Brownie Cake (or Baileys Brownie Cake!)March 18, 2014 at 12:01 am | Posted in cakes & tortes, groups, layer cakes, sweet things, tuesdays with dorie | 32 Comments
Tags: baking, brownies, cake, chocolate, dessert, holiday
For Saint Patrick's Day, I turned the Mocha Brownie Cake from Marcel Desaulniers into a Baileys Brownie Cake. Oh yeah! It was as easy as just replacing the coffee in the ganache with Baileys…plus a swig more to taste. I'm lucky I'm a fast baker, because I pushed the clock on this one. All those resting and chilling times didn't really register when I read through the recipe. Thanks to my BFF, the freezer, I managed to get a photo while it was still light(ish) out.
I made a half recipe in six-inch form. It only took about 35 minutes to bake (I watched it closely, cuz no one likes a dry brownie). The cake is a cake-brownie hybrid. It starts out with whipped eggs– sort of like those Best-Ever Brownies we made awhile back– and also has baking powder for lift. I was kind of nervous to cut the cake into three layers, but it rose nicely in the oven and after it was chilled and firm, it was really no problem to slice…it helped that it was a small cake, I'm sure.
The filling and glaze is a dark chocolate ganache flavored with coffee (or Baileys for me, thanks). Delicious! I just realized after reading another blogger's post that I completely forgot to add the extra sugar in the ganache. Oh well– it doesn't need it, especially if you like your chocolate on the dark, bitter side (or you use sweet Baileys to make it). Even thought the recipe said to make sure the ganache was still pourable when filling the layers, mine was definitely spreadable– the consistency of thick custard. I didn't see any problem with using it that way, and in fact it set up nicely. I didn't need to build the cake up in a springform pan and it was ready to glaze quickly. I did reheat the remaining ganache so I'd have a shiny, pourable glaze for over the top. And then I sprinkled the cake with green luster dust for extra shimmer.
I'm really impressed with this actually. It looks great cut (use a hot knife) and it totally satisfies my ever-present chocolate craving. Also, it's a heck of a lot easier to put together than Marcel D's "Death by Chocolate Cake," which I made once and is waaaay more involved.

Confetti Layer Cake and a BOOK GIVEAWAY!March 11, 2014 at 6:06 pm | Posted in cakes & tortes, layer cakes, sweet things | 50 Comments
Tags: baking, birthday, cake, dessert, giveaway
Sometimes I just want a piece of birthday cake…even if it's no one's birthday. Know how that is? I do feel I'm embarrassingly late to the imaginary party with this confetti cake. I don't even know if I've ever had the Pillsbury version. And it seems everyone's made a homemade one but me (till now). What I thought was some magical secret to the colored bursts of confetti is really just jimmies stirred into cake batter. A cute book called Sprinkles!, which helps turn all things sparkly or rainbow-colored, showed me that. My own sprinkles collection borders on the absurd. Apparently I really needed this book– I'm filing it in the "self-help" section of my bookshelf.
Back to the cake! The base here is a delicate white cake flavored with almond extract, although it would be also great flavored with lemon, so I included that as an option. The sprinkles folded into the batter explode in the in oven (not in a dangerous way, I promise!) into little pops of color scattered throughout each slice. I think any frosting you like with white cake would work well here, so use your favorite. I made an American-style powdered sugar buttercream with a blob of cream cheese added in to temper the sweetness just a bit. The sides of the cake are exposed to show off the fun inside, and don't forget the extra sprinkles on top!
The kind folks at Quirk Books sent me a copy of Sprinkles!, and now I want to jazz up your baking by sending a copy to one of you. Just leave me a comment (one per person, please) on this post before 4:00 pm EST on Tuesday, March 18 and I'll randomly choose a winner from the list. Be sure your e-mail address is correct so I can contact you if you're chosen.
***Giveaway Winner Update: I used random.org to generate a random comment number to find the winner. It selected comment 24, so congratulations to Barb T. I'll be in touch and sending your book soon!***
Confetti Layer Cake– makes a 9-inch triple layer cake
adapted from Sprinkles! by Jackie Alpers
Steph's Note: Obviously I didn't bake my cake in 9-inch rounds. I scaled it back to a third and baked it as a quarter-sheet (adjusting baking time accordingly), which I then cut into three strips and frosted.
1 1/2 cups milk
9 large egg whites, lightly beaten
1/3 cup applesauce or Greek yogurt
1 tablespoon vanilla extract
1/2 teaspoon almond extract or lemon extract
4 1/2 cups cake flour, sifted, plus extra for flouring pans
2 tablespoons baking powder
1 1/2 teaspoons salt
1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter, at room temperature
2 cups sugar
1/2 cup rainbow jimmies, plus extra for decoration
4 cups (approximately) your favorite buttercream or cream cheese frosting
-Preheat oven to 350°F. Line three 9-inch round cake pans with parchment circles, grease, then dust with flour.
-In a medium bowl, stir milk, egg whites, applesauce or yogurt and extracts. Into another bowl, sift together flour, baking powder and salt.
-Beat butter and sugar with an electric mixer on medium speed until light and fluffy, about 5 minutes. Reduce speed to low; add flour and milk mixtures alternately, starting and ending with the flour. Fold in the 1/2 cup sprinkles.
-Divide batter among pans. Bake until a tester inserted in the centers comes out clean, 25 to 30 minutes.
-Cool cakes in pans set on wire racks for 5 minutes. Run a knife around the sides of each pan, then invert cakes onto a cutting board. With a serrated knife, carefully cut off the tops and "crusts," exposing the confetti sprinkles (this is optional).
-Place first layer on a plate. Spread 3/4 cup frosting evenly over top. Repeat with second and third layers, leaving the sides exposed. Decorate the perimeter of the top with the remaining jimmies. Serve, or refrigerate up to 3 days.

Does anyone use iRule to control their Dune device via IP? I'm trying to find the proper device to use for my D1. The gateway shows that it's good, and I can control the D1 with other apps just fine. I'd like to keep things limited to iRule though, and I'd like to avoid IR if I can.

DOING nothing to stop a crime can be seen by others to be as bad as committing the crime directly.
So says Peter DeScioli at Brandeis University in Waltham, Massachusetts, who presented students with a number of scenarios that led to a fatality. An actor whose hesitancy to act led to the death was seen as less immoral than an actor whose direct actions led to the death. But the students judged deliberate inaction that led to the fatality as equally immoral as direct action that caused the death (Evolution and Human Behavior, DOI: 10.1016/j.evolhumbehav.2011.01.003).
DeScioli thinks the results show we see inaction as less immoral only because we typically lack proof that it was deliberate.

What are you, people? On dope? - Mr Hand
Does it come with that snazzy Corvair Parking Only sign?
Go Gators!
It's interesting how we RedsZone users seem to get so much more value out of the Post's online content than the Enquirer's. Yet the people who actually buy newspapers seems to be voting with their dollars (or their quarters) for the Enquirer.
It probably has more to do with the Post's desperate attempts to stay relevant and solvent by putting content online and embracing Web 2.0 than anything else. Once Cincinnati becomes a one-paper town with less competition for online local eyeballs, I wonder if we might start seeing less Enquirer content online?
I was just thinking, if the Enquirer hired C Trent and Katzowitz they'd have a pretty solid sportswriting crew.
Curnutte(Bengals), Katzowitz(UC), Dow(XU and other colleges), C Trent(Reds)
And keep Wheeler and Daughtery to have two columnists again.
When people say that I dont know what Im talking about when it comes to sports or writing, I think: Man, you should see me in the rest of my life.

Geoff Hobson used to work for the Post, and now is the head writer for Bengals.com
Mark Sheldon does a good job for Reds.com, but maybe C. Trent can get on board as well...

42 year old woman | Oakdale, CA, USA | Seeking men 35-42 within 100 miles
I only have till jan 19th and then im going to give Match a break for awhile. So if you wanna talk to me, please do! Although this place is definitely entertaining, I don't like how it makes me feel just a little empty and shallow..its like I'm shopping for a car. But I know people who've met the love of their life so I do have that tiny glimmer of hope, lol. I'm originally from Oklahoma so I'm a southern girl at heart, I'm a very easy going and down to earth person. I'm in sales and a bit of a social butterfly, but also enjoy my alone time and independence. I'm a proud mom to my 8 yr old son. He's my life!!! I have a great sense of humor and if you can make me laugh, you're moving to the front of the line. I'm the perfect blend of sweetness and mischief. I'm all about a nice glass of wine and great conversation. I'm intrigued when someone can challenge my thoughts and opinions, and keep me on my toes. I'm always true to myself and true to God. The kind of man I'd like to meet has to be loving and kind hearted to everyone,fun, spontaneous, driven and confident, honest and trustworthy, and has a love for God. Someone who has his priorities straight, but knows how and when to let loose. I'm not looking for a bad boy but rather a good guy with class and has that bit of edge to him. I know he has to exist, as I'm the female version of this. I want someone that I can trust to lead and who knows how to treat a woman. He has to take good care of himself physically, emotionally and spiritually. And above all, just be a man of integrity.

Originally written on Fox Sports Arizona | Last updated 3/31/13
As much as the Diamondbacks have expressed this offseason a desire to manufacture more runs, so too exists just as much of a need for it, and the D-backs know it. With Justin Upton and Chris Young gone, the D-backs have drastically reduced the pure power in their lineup. Accordingly, pitching has become paramount. The D-backs have the pitching to be contenders in the NL West this season but need the performance, as a staff on paper means nothing without results. "We have to pitch good," manger Kirk Gibson said. "I think we'll be able to score our share of runs, we'll be able to manufacture more runs than we have in the past (and) we probably wont hit as many home runs. If we don't pitch, we're going to be just like everybody else that doesn't pitch -- we're not going to have a shot at all." There seems to be very little disagreement, if any, that the D-backs have assembled a pretty formidable starting rotation. Opening Day starter Ian Kennedy has more wins (36) over the past two ...

The film comments on the way the United States government and corporations neglect their employees, but at bottom it's a Hitchcockian technical exercise to see how much action and how many camera angles can fit into such a confined space. And because the situation is so contrived - there's no reason for the kidnappers to bury their captive in the first place - there are times when you're thinking less about how Reynolds can survive, and more about how the writer and director can sustain the drama.
Over all, though, they've done a remarkable job of keeping Buried dynamic and frightening, but also plaintive and blackly funny, without any cheating: there are no flashbacks or cuts to the outside world, and no supporting characters except voices on a phone. Reynolds deserves immense credit, then, for carrying the film single-handedly, maintaining a delicate balance between movie-star twinkle and everyman terror in what must have been a severely uncomfortable role. Buried would make a tremendous double-bill with Lebanon, which was, up until now, this year's most claustrophobia-inducing drama set in a Middle-East war zone.

Fenerbahce have been banned from next season's Champions League and Besiktas from the Europa League over match-fixing allegations.

I made this pair of earrings with a scrap sheet of copper.
They take about an hour to make, but they are pretty easy.
Step 1: WHAT YOU NEED
-copper sheet;
-earrings hoops;
-beads (optional).
-iron shears;
-files, fine grain and rough grain;
-propane torch;
-hammer (with one edge sharp);
-one sharp nail;
-paper and pencil;
-hard flat surface.
Step 2: CUT THE SHHET
Draw a leaves shape on a piece of paper, than surround it with a rectangular shape.
Cut that shape on the copper sheet.
Step 3: FOLD IN HALF
Put the copper rectangular piece in a vice, bend it in half with an hammer.
Transfer it on an hard surface and hammer flat in half.
Step 6: HAMMER THE LEAVES
Hammer the leaves with the sharp part of the hammer.
-Start from the center part of the leaves and go up, then from the center down, perpendicular to the fold.
-Avoid to hammer the fold.
-As more you will hammer it as more the leaves will be twisted and have a texture when you will open it.
Step 7: ANNEALING
With the propane torch heat up your pieces for about a minute, than put them in cold water just to cool down.
Do it on a heat proof surface, far away from everything.
Step 10: POKE AN HOLE
Poke an hole with the nail and the hammer on the edge you just round up.
*(If you like you can polish the leaves, I did it a little bit to add shines. )
Step 11: ADD THE HOOKS
Add the earrings hooks directly in the hole or add some wire and beads if you like.
Top notch Instructable and the first I've made for myself. Not as good as yours but I guess practice makes perfect ;) Thanks!
They look really cool, I like the shape! Thanks for posting the photos, I'm happy somebody made them!
I work also with copper a fair amount. I found that Permalac EF is a great acrylic sealer for maintaining patina or shine, if desired.
Thanks for the tip!
yes with the dangling bead they look like "lady parts". but that's not nessisarily immature or even mean to say! it's art! And be it a leaf or lady parts or whatever you wana call it it's artistic and beautiful. (tho I'm Gunna go with lady parts lol)
I think these are beautiful. Thank you for the great instructions, and for sharing! Men are weird!
You are welcome!
Thanks a lot for the nice comment and support!
I think this is a great design, thank you for sharing. I think you also mean annealing not enamelling in step 7 as enabling involves fusing crushed glass to a metal surface.
yes that's what I mean! I'm going to change it, thanks.
I guess only men see it as something else :-).
Lovely work!
That's what I tough! Thanks!
I know I have an active imagination, but those look a lot less like leaves, and lot more like something else!
I'm a fan of the process, however I thought it odd that no one else has mentioned what appears rather obvious to me.
Actually if you read few comment under Ibannerman did already
Nice work! What about the oxidation issue? Is there a way to coat them?
Thanks for the tip.
Thanks! I have some pair for quite a wile now and they didn't really oxidize, when they will I may just give a fast polish again…Or a clear coat spray like Beader1986 suggested work pretty well too (also to preserve a patina , in the case you used one).
I knew these were yours when I saw the main picture :D awesome work!
Thank you!
This is so beautiful :), great craftsmanship :). And I just loved your main picture. Thank you so much for sharing.
Thanks a lot :)

As of Wednesday, November 9, 2011
© Copyright 2015 Clayton News Daily
The turnout for Tuesday's municipal elections in Clayton County's seven cities was a mixed bag, ranging from a 23 percent showing in Jonesboro, to just 5.3 percent of Riverdale's 8,400 registered voters, according to unofficial results.
By 2:30 p.m., in Riverdale, more than 170 citizens had turned out to cast their ballots, according to Poll Manager Gloria Collins. But, by the time the polls closed at 7 p.m., Riverdale City Clerk Stephanie Thomas said –– out of the 8,400 residents who are registered to vote –– 442 ballots had been cast, only about 5.3 percent of the registered voters.
Collins said this is not the first year she has worked the polls, and from her perspective, even though the turnout was light, everything seemed to run in an orderly fashion. "Everything was smooth and steady," she said.
Vera Odom was among the residents who came out to cast their votes. She said she has lived in Riverdale for more than 10 years, and though she didn't have a lot of knowledge about the candidates, she was interested in voting on Sunday alcohol sales.
Forest Park
In Forest Park, Elections Superintendent Dave Painter said he was thrilled to see a turnout of slightly more than 10 percent, with 741 votes cast out of 7,358 registered voters.
"It's pretty sad, though, to be excited about a 10 percent turnout," he said.
Painter said the flow of voters, Tuesday, at the Forest Park Recreation Center was pretty steady. "We were hoping to get above 5 percent turnout," he said.
Lake City
Lake City Poll Manager Ray Dunn said 176, or 14.8 percent of the town's 1,188 registered voters, cast their ballots in this year's municipal election. He added that the number includes 37 people who voted during the city's early voting period last month.
"It's been better than usual," he said. "Anywhere from 60, to 100 [voters] is normal."
Dunn said he could only speculate as to why the turnout was higher than normal this year. The city had four people running for two city council seats, and voters were also deciding whether to allow package alcohol sales on Sundays.
"It was probably because of the alcohol vote, but I really don't know," Dunn said.
Poll managers and election supervisors in Morrow and Jonesboro reported voter turnout numbers that were more traditional in their cities this year.
Morrow City Clerk Evyonne Browning, the city's election supervisor, said 226 voters had voted, as of 6 p.m., with another 89 ballots cast during the early voting period. That equaled 7.8 percent of the city's 2,868 registered voters. The city did not release final results or turnout numbers. Nor did it release the results of its mayoral race — the only contested race on the ballot — because the results were too close to call.
Morrow resident, Stanton Varnadoe, said the issue of who the next mayor will be was a key reason why he came to the polls to vote Tuesday. He cited headline-grabbing stories in the city, including the Olde Towne Morrow development, as proof that change was needed in the city. "We need new blood in here, especially in light of the Olde Towne Morrow situation," he said.
In Jonesboro, Poll Manager B.J. Burrell reported a little after 6 p.m., that 261 voters had already cast ballots on Tuesday. She said that was in addition to another 97 people who voted during the early voting period. "I think this is about average for us," she said.
Results showed the final turnout for Jonesboro was 362 voters, or 23.13 percent of the city's 1,565 registered voters. The city's electorate was choosing a mayor, three city council members and whether packaged alcohol could be sold on Sundays.
The City of Lovejoy has 2,800 registered voters and 313 of them came out to cast ballots, said Billy Williams, poll manager for the city. "It has been steady, not real heavy, but steady all day," he said.
Williams said the turnout was about 11.2 percent of those registered to vote, which, he said, is a positive turnout.
College Park
In College Park, there are 8,915 registered voters, according to City Clerk Lakeitha Reeves. She said that number includes active voters and inactive voters, meaning those who haven't voted in the last year or so. She said approximately 1,057 voters came out to vote Tuesday, which, unofficially, would be about 12 percent of those eligible.
