Outstanding - followed the directions + I added sweet onions. Next time I would add more honey. I used canned Apricots and dried them with a paper towel before stering them in. What a treat
I'm not a pork chop fan but these were really good. I seasoned the chops with a heavy dose of chili powder since we like a kick in our food. I also did not have fresh apricots or canned, so I ...
This is a simple and delicious recipe! I added a lot more honey and used a whole can of apricots. Be generous with the salt on the chops. I served this with rice to absorb some of the sauce and...

Time for Sir Jimmy Savile charity to help victims
Last updated at 13:06, Thursday, 11 October 2012
His gravestone has been removed, plaques announcing where he lived have been taken down, streets bearing his monicker are being renamed and there's a campaign to strip him of his knighthood.
As more and more horror stories come to light about Jimmy Savile abusing teen girls, there seems no end to the retribution to be taken on his memory.
As he is rapidly airbrushed from history, it all reminds me of how they would change the records and remove names and faces from documents and pictures in Stalinist Russia.
The best response to all the testimonies now coming to light is the one announced by the Jimmy Savile Charitable Trust.
The charity is considering changing its name and how it operates so that it provides support for victims of sexual abuse.
A spokesman for the trust said it was "actively looking at supporting, amongst others, charities that work with survivors of sexual abuse. They feel this is the right thing to do in the circumstances".
It is only right and proper that any legacy he had left is used to help girls who have undergone similar trauma to the ones he preyed on.
Needless to say, the trustees are also looking at changing the charity's name.
Meanwhile, the BBC is belatedly investigating claims against Savile and other DJs and presenters, so expect more shocking claims.
The Beeb also has a major scheduling headache on its hands as it has lined up three 'tributes' to Savile to be broadcast in the run-up to Christmas which now must be shelved.

Information about the Conference and Summer School will be updated at TØI's website: https://www.toi.no/ITEA2015/
Please mark your calendar!
ITEA Summer School (Kuhmo Nectar): June 15-17, 2015
ITEA Conference (Kuhmo Nectar): June 17-19, 2015.
ITEA Annual Conference and School (Kuhmo Nectar) 2016
ITEA is very pleased to announce that the Annual Conference and School of the International Transportation Economics Association will be hosted by Universidad de Chile in Santiago, Chile, in July 2016. The exact dates will be posted later.
Call for Venue 2017
The International Transportation Economics Association (ITEA) invites proposals for venue for the ITEA Annual Conference and School (Kuhmo Nectar) on transportation economics in 2017. The deadline for submissions is October 1, 2015.
Natural candidates for venue and local organizer are universities, research institutions, or other organizations in the field. The venue and local organizer for 2015 will be the Institute of Transport Economics (TØI) in Oslo, Norway, from June 15-19. Recent venues and local organizers were the Toulouse School of Economics for 2014, and Northwestern University in Evanston (USA) for 2013.
President's Letter
Welcome to the website of the International Transportation Economics Association. ITEA was founded in 2011 with goals of advancing transportation economics as a field within economics as well as strengthening ties with other disciplines engaged in transportation research. ITEA promotes theoretical, empirical and policy-oriented research in transportation economics, and it is devoted to attracting students and young professionals to the field.
Ken Small was president of ITEA from its inception until last fall when I took up the position for a two-year term. Ken deserves a special thanks for all he has done to develop ITEA into the thriving association it is today. To follow up on Ken's efforts I am very fortunate to have an excellent executive committee and others (including Ken) to work with.
Since 2005, a group of transportation economists who helped to found ITEA has organized an annual conference, and since 2006 a summer school has been held in conjunction with the conference. ITEA now runs both events which attract researchers and students from around the world. The venue changes each year. Most have been in Europe, but the 2013 conference was held at Northwestern University near Chicago. The 2014 conference and summer school were hosted by the Toulouse School of Economics. Jean Tirole gave the keynote address, and it was a thrill when he was awarded the Nobel Memorial Prize in Economics four months later! The keynote address at the 2010 conference was given by Daniel McFadden who received the Nobel Prize in 2000. We hope to continue this tradition of attracting top speakers. Ken Small's comments on the 2014 conference and ITEA can be seen at interview on the conference
The 2015 conference and summer school will be held in Oslo from June 15-19. We look forward to celebrating the tenth anniversary of the conference series and long summer days at the 60th parallel.
In addition to the conference and summer school, ITEA sponsors the journal Economics of Transportation (http://www.journals.elsevier.com/economics-of-transportation/) which has published articles since 2012, as well as two special issues, and is rapidly becoming established as a premier journal in economics and transportation. ITEA also has a group on LinkedIn with a large and growing membership. We welcome new members to the group and the Association.

ITEA Annual Conference and Summer School (Kuhmo Nectar) 2014
The ITEA Annual Conference and Summer School on Transportation Economics (Kuhmo Nectar), held in Toulouse, France, June 2 - 6, 2014, was very successful.
The Conference and the Summer School were hosted by the Toulouse School of Economics (TSE) at the Université Toulouse 1 Capitole, Toulouse, France, with the support of Institut D'Economie Industrielle (IDEI).

Please visit the conference website for more information about the conference and the summer school.

"This is so cute and perfect for Christmas packages next year! I love the color and that the from is already printed! So handy :)"
"The product looks great! Loved the designer review part of it and the customer service. Looking to have some cards ordered this time."
"These labels are great to use instead of birthday cards. When our kids go to a party, we place this label on the gift and write in the birthday boy or girls name. The parents appreciate it because they don't have to deal with a card they're only going to throw away. And you will save a ton of money on birthday cards!"
"I purchased these labels for packaging to use for my business. I loved the design so much I have since purchased the rest of the matching items to go along with my stickers. Beautiful work from Petite Alma!!"
"These are adorable! I stick them on everything my son takes to school. It is so easy to label all his belongings and feel confident that they will all return home:)"

Exceptional 1852 Half Dime, PR64 Cameo1852 H10C PR64 Cameo NGC. Ex: P. Kaufman. The 1852 half dime from the Phil Kaufman collection is an extreme rarity, and is the only example given the Cameo designation by either NGC or PCGS.
The Only Certified Cameo Proof
The Only Certified Cameo Proof
At CoinFacts.com, the estimated proof mintage is 10 coins, although Breen enumerated 13 known examples in his Proof Encyclopedia. NGC and PCGS have each certified six specimens.
Based on examination of plated catalogs, we have identified seven separate 1852 proof half dimes:
1. PR66 PCGS. James Kelly (9/1945); Benson Collection II (Ira and Larry Goldberg, 2/2002), lot 393.
2. Gem Proof. David Bullowa (5/1952); John Jay Pittman Collection David Akers (10/1997), lot 490.
3. PR65 PCGS. Heritage (1/2007), lot 854.
4. PR64 Cameo NGC. The Kaufman example.
5. PR63 ANACS. L.W. Hoffecker Collection (Superior Galleries, 2/1987), lot 831; Superior Galleries (2/1998), lot 1794; Superior Galleries (10/2000), lot 4328; Superior Galleries (1/2004), lot 2266.
6. Proof. American Numismatic Society.
7. Proof. Smithsonian Institution (impaired, per Breen).
Additional Appearances.
A. PR63 PCGS. Heritage Exclusively Internet Auction (4/2004), lot 11293; Heritage Exclusively Internet Auction (5/2004), lot 13160.
B. Brilliant Proof. O.H. Berg Collection (Haseltine, 5/1883), lot 755a; John Work Garrett Collection; The Johns Hopkins University (Stack's, 3/1976), lot 111.
C. Proof. Valentine coin (per Breen).
D. Proof. Newcomb coin (per Breen).
E. Proof. Menjou coin (per Breen).
F. Proof. Brand coin (per Breen).
Frosty design elements appear to be suspended above the deep watery fields of this amazing half dime, confirming the Cameo designation. Moreover, the essentially untoned surfaces exhibit fully struck design elements, and are nicely preserved throughout. A few stray hairlines interspersed with die polish lines in the fields preclude full Gem classification. Nevertheless, an outstanding coin with tremendous eye appeal.
From The Phil Kaufman Collection of Early Proof Sets, Part Four.(Registry values: P3) (PCGS# 84429)

a state of mind in which one's desires are confined to his lot whatever it may be (1 Tim. 6:6; 2 Cor. 9:8). It is opposed to envy (James 3:16), avarice (Heb. 13:5), ambition (Prov. 13:10), anxiety (Matt. 6:25, 34), and repining (1 Cor. 10:10). It arises from the inward disposition, and is the offspring of humility, and of an intelligent consideration of the rectitude and benignity of divine providence (Ps. 96:1, 2; 145), the greatness of the divine promises (2 Pet. 1:4), and our own unworthiness (Gen. 32:10); as well as from the view the gospel opens up to us of rest and peace hereafter (Rom. 5:2).

On the Move with Veronica Trevino
Helping kids is program director's cup of tea
As executive director of Communities In Schools, Veronica Trevino tries to give youths the extra push they need to succeed in their education. The program provides grants for and sponsors programs that put teens into practical situations that are tough to learn sitting in the classroom.
Although in deep with duties for the program, the 46-year-old says she knows how to chill. In her free time she makes it to concerts, plays tennis and even sang "I'm a Little Teapot" for her peers.
Family: Husband Raul A. Trevino, daughter Gabriela Trevino, 26, son Raul A. Trevino II, 22, and grandson Andres Gabriel Noreiga, 5.
Hometown: Corpus Christi
Outside interests: Tennis, gardening, music and attending concerts and movies.
Desert island CDs: Rocio Durcal, "Alma Ranchera," Juan Gabriel - "Juntos Otra Vez," Alejandro Fernandez, "Me Estoy Enamorando."
Can't live without: Coffee in the morning.
If my philosophy could be summed up on a T-shirt, it would be: "Stay True to Life" (Living life to its fullest in a positive and Christian way).
I'd stop everything to: Talk to my best friend (Olaya Solis) and my mother.
The perfect indulgence: To eat a Mexican dish called mole every day.
Least favorite food: Any kind of shellfish, because of my allergy problem.
If I had the money, I'd: Pay to construct a new administration office for Communities In Schools, because we are in a Popsicle box.
Most treasured possession: A rosary that my mother gave me.
One thing people don't know about me: I do have a sense of humor and I do know how to relax.
Rewards of job/volunteer service: When you see the positive changes in the youth and families.
Best vacation: Traveling the state of New Mexico.
Most embarrassing moment: At a Communities In Schools fundraiser someone in the audience paid for me to do the rendition of "I'm a Little Teapot."
My heroes: Hillary Rodham Clinton, Oprah Winfrey, Cesar Chavez and Hector P. Garcia.

Significant progress has been made on addressing critical issues for inertial fusion energy (IFE) chambers for heavy-ion, laser and Z-pinch drivers. A variety of chamber concepts are being investigated including drywall (currently favored for laser IFE), wetted-wall (applicable to both laser and ion drivers), and thick-liquid-wall (favored by heavy ion and z-pinch drivers). Recent progress and remaining challenges in developing IFE chambers are reviewed.

He's been developing and writing code for Microsoft CRM since the version 1.0 beta.
The authors warn that the book description on Amazon appears to be copied from the CRM 3.0 book so they say not to put much stock in this description. But they promise to get the description updated soon. Get your questions and suggestions for what you'd like to see in this book into Sonoma as soon as possible.
PingBack from http://msdnrss.thecoderblogs.com/2007/09/20/pre-order-titan-book-at-amazon/
How much is this book different from the v3.0
book? Would this new book really add that much to one's knowledge if one already has the previous one?
Well, looking at the details on Amazon the page count is significantly higher in this version, so for that reason alone I've ordered it.

Northside Festival. Local style-sampling outfit Beirut plays a rare hometown show—its first since June 2013. Band chief Zach Condon, a multitasker who performs vocals, trumpet and ukulele, mines sounds from foreign lands, giving color to his Morrissey-like vocals and Magnetic Fields–like songs. Ratking—a buzzy Harlem hip-hop outfit that layers wonky rhymes over spacey, jolting beats—and kora player Malang Jobarteh open.

To be fair, I'm guessing that was more down to a very poor choice of words.
To put it in a slightly nicer way than Rob put it.
We criticize people regardless of gender. Orton is boring, Miz is a terrible face, etc. Why is it misogynist when we do it towards women? It is a fair and equal distribution of hate, I assure you.
The problem isn't with us being sexist, it's you. You perceive women as being weak and in need of protection. You think women should be handled with kid gloves. Try going up to Cris 'Cyborg' Santos, tell her that she is weak and needs to be protected. She will knock you the fuck out.
Penises and vaginas are on equal ground. Only white knights and feminists think they aren't.
And on the subject of looks.
Yes we make fun of Rosa and Tamina for having masculine faces, because they do. We also make fun of Khali for being butt ugly and Miz for having a frog face.

A biography of Martha Stewart, coming to the world via a comic book, will hit shelves in July. Bluewater Productions has created the latest installment of their "Female Force" comic book series in honor of the cooking pioneer.
The company says it will explore "all sides" of Martha's life, but will focus on her drive and determination to create a media empire.
Publisher Darren G. Davis said, "Our goal is to show the behind-the scenes machinations - many of them ignored by the mainstream media - that resulted in Martha Stewart becoming the phenomenon she is. A visual medium provides perspective that is not only accessible but more relatable to the average person without losing any of the information involved."
The "Female Force" series looks at women with a powerful impact on modern culture and history. Past women profiled in the series include Michelle Obama, Hillary Clinton, Oprah Winfrey, Margaret Thatcher, Barbara Walters and Sarah Palin.

She noted that larger budgets are necessary but insufficient for successful science and innovation policy; spending the resources in the right way is equally important. Taking into account best practices of the international environment, particularly from the European context, the Flemish government had developed an innovation strategy creating appropriate funding mechanisms and instruments to monitor and evaluate its policy on a regular basis. She summarized the main characteristics as follows:
Maintain a double budgetary balance—part for academic basic research and technology innovation, and part for higher education institutes and industry.
Adopt a bottom-up approach. Apart from the strategic research centers, the government has set few thematic priorities, funding instead projects proposed by the researchers themselves.
Give universities and interuniversity research institutes, such as IMEC, a large degree of autonomy. The Flemish government sets out annual block grants, long-term performance targets, and long-term management agreements. Performance-based funding is the key.
In 2003, the Flemish government concluded an Innovation Pact with key players from academia and industry to reach the 3 percent Barcelona target. The Flemish Science Policy Council (VRWB) was designated to monitor the execution of the pact, using 11 key indicators. The first findings, published in 2005, were that Flanders is characterized by an average innovation profile and was insufficiently able to transfer excellent (academic) research findings into innovative products or added societal value—the "innovation paradox" that afflicts most European and other countries. Just a few, mostly international, companies accounted for all industrial research in Flanders, leaving the economy vulnerable to external events and corporate decisions.
The challenge was to reduce the innovation paradox, which meant reducing a traditional culture gap between industry and academia. Academic researchers had long felt that working in industry corrupts the academic career, diminishes publication output, and restrains academic freedom. At the same time, industry described a structural mismatch between the research agenda of academia and the research needs of industry.
A recent study by the Catholic University of Leuven (K.U.Leuven) sent more positive signals about the interaction between industry and academia. It suggests that the gap between industry and academia is shrinking. First, the study estimated that in 2005 about 10 percent of all R&D in Flanders was performed by academic-industry partnerships. This was in line with statistics in the Third S&T Indicators Report by the European Commission (2003), which found that the rela-

You must find your way out of Hell in this, the last game to use the game engine created for Wasteland.
The third Final Fantasy released on the Famicom. This version of the game was never released internationally.

But questionable defense and lack of explosiveness and lateral quickness may cause Fredette to "fredette about it."
A lateral move in the offing provides opportunity to trailblaze new frontiers under existing career auspice.
lateral Squats - For this variation, you step to the side as your do your squats.
early 15c., from Middle French latéral and directly from Latin lateralis "belonging to the side," from latus (genitive lateris) "side" (see oblate (n.)). As a noun, from 1630s, "a side part." As a type of pass to the side in U.S. football, it is attested from 1934. Related: Laterally.
lateral lat·er·al (lāt'ər-əl)
Relating to or situated at or on the side.
Situated or extending away from the median plane of the body.

Isn't that Chuck Norris' standard lens?
venancio: "A full-frame camera would be bigger, more expensive and maybe slower too." - Fuji.
Didn't Fuji make a comment on Sony's RX1 full frame compact before? If it can be shown that such full frame can be made small, maybe Fuji can finish it off with a faster and less expensive model.
...and please add a real shutter speed dial into that mix - not that 'children's' mode dial Sony put on the top of the RX1! The aperture ring and shutter speed dials of the X100 series bodies are just how it should be done. Very Leica, very nice, very professional!
When I saw 'Infra red' in the title of the page I thought 'gimmick' - however I quickly changed my mind when looking at the imagery. This is very poweful stuff and the red of the foliage translates to 'blood' when you see the moving images.... Incredible work. The Congo is a dangerous place, but beyond question, the best country I have ever visited from a photographic and life-changing point of view and that mood is perfectly captured by Mosse.
Take a look if you have a moment:
I think you'll find that calibration tool on the right is called a hammer......
F 2: Appmera or maybe Appamera
A portmanteau of application/app, and camera.
...or Capp?
PCPics: V.nice - but why no shutter speeds on the top dial for those people who use manual? If the aperture is so carefully crafted with third stop detents, why a 'menu driven' shutter speed selection?
I see your points (@Calvin Chann and @garygraphy) - but if 'most' people are using 'A' why bother with 1/3 stop aperture increments?
The comment in the article "[Sony's] first compact camera for serious photographers" could definitely be regarded as correct when looking at the beautiful Ziess lens with it's 1/3 aperture indents - but then when looking at the body and seeing a 'point and shoot' type selector dial just doesn't do it for me.... I only ever shoot manual. The X100 sort of gets it right, but could do with the 1/3 aperture stops on the aperture ring.
We come back to the old question of 'what is the perfect camera?' and see that we all like different things!
daMatrix: I'm also sad about the focal length.
35mm? I would prefer a 50mm on this dream camera. Otherwise a 85mm would make it a perfect companion for concert photos in clubs.
If the RX1 came with freedom of focal length choice I would now be hysteric of happiness (a feather light full frame...that fits in a lady purse).
Anyhow the RX1 is remarkable And a congratulation is in place; It is the 3 milestone in cameras deliverd by Sony (other hits: Mavica with floppy storage 1981, Sony Nex )
35mm is perfect for a full frame camera - a Leica with a 35mm Summicron is surely one of the greatest combos of all time - and clearly what is being emulated by Sony/Zeiss here....
V.nice - but why no shutter speeds on the top dial for those people who use manual? If the aperture is so carefully crafted with third stop detents, why a 'menu driven' shutter speed selection?
Where is the thumb activated focus? Without that one little item it becomes a toy from my perspective. Perhaps with a firmware tweak, the movie stop/start could be assigned that function whilst in 'stills' mode. Seems like an obvious omission on Canon's side?
Just hope the robots have got permission to take pictures - otherwise they will probably get arrested by the Olympic Stasi and thrown out!
Despite all the negative comments about Leica that seem to fill the columns on DP Review (often from people who don't own a single peice of Leica kit) - just take a really careful look at this picture. Even with the best Japanese cameras and lenses and running the finest software, your pictures are never this detailed straight off the camera. This is a great example of why Leica lenses have the reputation they do!
Martin is a (the?) well respected software master and shows this software off to it's best - but I still can't quite accept HDR (whether from multi images or from just one) as generating anything that looks real!
The midtones are awful - just look at the grey building and the halo effect around the edges of the sky/building boundary and it looks like it's been badly feathered and over compensated... to create a look that is plain fake!
TheYetiCom: You see occasional complaints about depth of field, but you probably don't understand how bad a problem it is. I looked into getting one of these (reflector based telephoto lenses)years ago, and at the time the russian models were available. I don't imagine that this can be much different.
the 500mm lens had a depth of field of 1 inch at a distance of 1/4 mile at F11. focusing required a tripod. Maybe that is desirable, you would have crazy bokeh, but the bokeh is all donuts not circles.
So given the problems with the depth of field, you need lots of rotation on the focusing grip, or a usm motor, a stepper motor is not precise enough.
I like the 'out by a few football fields' comment!
As far as I'm aware a 500mm f/11 mirror (shouldn't that be f/8 anyway?) will have the same d.o.f. as any other 500mm lens at the same aperture. A mirror lens does not have less d.o.f.
This is a dilemma - the picture in the Washington Post is not actually 'a news event' and the manipulation is clearly mentioned - and let's be perfectly honest, the HDR aspect quite subtley applied, to the point that many people wouldn't have realised it was HDR unless it was mentioned. It could easily have been a single shot with tweaks to contrast and saturation - and is that wrong/disallowed?
I think that if it is a 'news event' then manipulation outside of contrast/exposure corrections should not be permitted.
As this particular shot is 'illustrative', then perhaps it is ok - just as long as it doesn't become a common ocurrance...
And how do you police this exactly - definitely a dilemma!
Adobe used to be amazing - they made truly groundbreaking things.
Now they just update stuff that plateaued years ago and pass it off as 'progress' - for which you must pay.... handsomely....
It is an amazing piece of software - but alienating previous owners is not a good business model.

This B&B was everything you would imagine when thinking of a quaint, New England style B&B. Very close to the ocean and main village of Rockport. We stayed in the Apollo Room and the room was clean and comfortable. The innkeepers are very nice and were extremely patient with us arriving later than we had anticipated due to rainy driving conditions. We had stuffed blueberry french toast for breakfast -- delicious! An added bonus to us was the delightful resident cat -- Woodstock-- who is there to greet the visitors. We are planning another trip to the area as well as staying again at the Sally Webster Inn.

We had a wonderful time. The innkeepers were incredibly hospitable. The inn was quaint and warm. The inn is easily walkable to the center of town and some of the beaches, which is essential since there's little parking in Rockport.

2015 Rush To Gold Bridge
Entry and Event Information
Late Summer / Early Fall 2015
SURVEY: The 2015 Event Survey
DOWNLOAD: Supplementary Regs coming Soon…
DOWNLOAD: 2015 Entry Form Coming Soon…
New for 2015
2015 brings some significant changes to the Rush to Gold Bridge event and format. Our big change for the Rush to Gold Bridge will be a move from "fully-organized, all-inclusive" style of previous years, to more of a low-cost "road-trip-adventure" type of affair. We had great success with road exploration weekends this past year, and thought why not offer that to all our classic car friends. But to really create an event that people will love, we've implemented the pre-event survey to make sure we're creating the exact event people want. Have you checked out the Survey?
General Description
Early motoring in B.C. was simply about "getting there". The Rush to Gold Bridge returns enthusiasts to a time when remote roads, sheer drop-offs and untouched scenery were the order of the day. Forget GPS, cell phones, roadside assistance or common sense…where we're going, none of them work! Participants in the Rush to Gold Bridge are pioneers of motoring! It's just you, your tools, your wits, and hopefully a helping hand from the car behind you. Crazy road choices, breakdowns in the middle of nowhere and a rugged 'western frontier' atmosphere mark the theme for this adventure. If gold miners from the 1800's could have travelled via Healey and Sprite, this would have been their event. Well, okay, it's really not that extreme, but you should be prepared for some remote driving. You're travelling with a group of people, we just wanted to highlight the fact that you'll be driving on both Tarmac and Gravel roads with some significant mountainous terrain. Driving is scheduled during daylight hours.
Schedule coming…soon!
Vehicle Acceptance & Required Equipment
The Rush to Gold Bridge is open to sport, touring and classic cars from 1979 and earlier. "Retro Classics" from 1980-1989 will be accepted upon organizer approval. Classic Trucks, sporting period-correct looks are also eligible. Think you've got a unique car that fits, but doesn't meet the age category? Feel free to contact us.
All vehicles must meet legal roadworthiness standards, and generally be ready for a long weekend of driving through mountains and winding roads. A pre-event tech inspection, more rigorous then the Spring Thaw's, will check for the following mandatory items:
- Minimum of one roadside warning triangle (30cm or larger per side)
- Proof of current insurance & Driver's Licenses.
- All four (4) tires in good condition, exceeding minimum tread depth.
- Minimum of one spare tire
- Brakes in good condition.
- Functioning headlights, tail-lights, and brake-lights.
- Tow strap
- Snacks and 1L of water per participant
- Additional 1L of water for water-cooled vehicles
Highly Recommended Equipment
- Tool kit
- Booster cables
- Fire extinguisher
- Simple spares (points, fluids, etc.)
- Spare Fuel container and fuel (securely stored and vented to exterior of vehicle)

You can now remove unwanted body hair without the nicks, cuts, and prickly stubble that shaving often leaves behind. Veet for Men has a range of simple body hair removal products which give smoother, longer lasting results than shaving.
Veet for Men Hair Removal Gel Cream is a quick and effective way to remove body hair, leaving your skin feeling smoother for up to twice as long as shaving. Using the cream provides smooth results in as little as 4 minutes, the easy rinse-off formula allows you to use it in the shower, and there is no razor rash or prickly regrowth.
Always read the directions for use and precautions on the packaging before using the product.
It is fine to apply the cream with your hand (wash hands thoroughly afterwards) to your body, but for removal the spatula supplied should be used. Hair removal creams weaken the hair by dissolving the protein structure and softening the hair at skin level, then the mechanical action of the spatula breaks the hair. Without the spatula to perform this mechanical action, not all the hairs will be removed effectively.
Veet can be used on the arms, chest, legs, back, shoulders, and around your briefs, but not on the face, scalp, genital, or perianal areas.
Veet has been tested and developed to work effectively after 4–6 minutes, as stated on pack. Do not leave the gel cream on for longer than the recommended time, as doing so could irritate your skin and will not improve performance.
Good hair removal is an essential element of any summer holiday, and when it comes to hair removal the choice of products is vast, so it's advised to consider the following:
The creams are chemical depilatories that use an active ingredient to dissolve the hair shaft. The mechanical action of removing the cream using the spatula or sponge helps pull away the dissolved hair from the surface of the skin.
Creams can be used by everyone, including pregnant women, as long you follow the precautions and directions for use. It is advisable for teenagers under 16 to be supervised by an adult when using any depilatory method.
The skin is a complex organ, and sensitive to changes in hormone levels. Since our skin is constantly changing, it is necessary to test each time to avoid any adverse reaction to the ingredients of the products.
Creams work so well because they go below the surface to dissolve the proteins that make up hair, so you're left feeling smoother for up to twice as long as shaving. For the longest lasting smoothness though, try waxing. Because waxing removes hair from the root, you're left with a silky smooth feeling that can last up to four weeks. When the hair eventually grows back, it's often sparser and softer, too. Waxing is easy to use and far more comfortable than you might imagine.

The Avant-Garde (album)

The Avant-Garde is an album credited to jazz musicians John Coltrane and Don Cherry, released in 1966 on Atlantic Records, catalogue SD 1451. It features Coltrane playing the compositions of Ornette Coleman accompanied by the members of Coleman's quartet: Cherry, Charlie Haden and Ed Blackwell. It is assembled from unissued results of two separate recording sessions at the Atlantic Studios in New York City in 1960. As Coltrane's fame grew during the 1960s long after he had stopped recording for the label, Atlantic, like Prestige before it, used unissued recordings to create new marketable albums without Coltrane's input or approval. This is the last known album by John Coltrane in this category, and only the second collaboration in this category of recordings.

Risotto is a classic dish of the North the most famous version being risotto Milanese and, when properly cooked, is one of the delights of Italian cuisine.
Risotto is almost always eaten as a dish by itself and rarely accompanies anything other than osso buco Heat the butter and oil in a large saucepan.
Add the onion and fry very gently, covered, for 5 minutes or until the onion is soft but still white.
Add the rice and cook gently for 3 minutes, turning all the time until each rice grain is coated with butter and oil.
Add the wine and cook over a moderate heat until it evaporates.
Blend in the stock, gradually adding more as each amount becomes absorbed by the rice.
Stir frequently with a fork and allow 20 to 30 minutes cooking time, when the rice should be creamy but still firm.
Using a fork, stir in extra butter and the Parmesan cheese and serve straight away.
Pass extra butter and Parmesan cheese separately.
