Curious about the newer model? Check out the 2016 Mercedes-Benz E-Class
By KBB.com Editors
The Mercedes E-Class took its place as the 'everything to everybody' line after being revamped for 2010 and gaining a Coupe model. With the addition of a returning Wagon and convertible, it's now possible for the consumer to get an E-Class in a wide range of configurations and powertrains. No matter which E-Class is chosen, drivers can expect nothing less than the definitive mid-size luxury vehicle, with exemplary ride quality and comfort in a segment that is among the most competitive in the auto industry today
The 2011 Mercedes-Benz E-Class is like a well-tailored suit; it will always look good, feel right and be in style. The wealth of standard features plus the sheer number of base-model options means there's something for everyone in the E-Class lineup
If owning a Mercedes-Benz holds no appeal, you may find competitors such as Cadillac, Infiniti and Lexus offering vehicles suiting your needs at lower prices.
Returning for 2011 is the E-Class Wagon; new are the V6- and V8-equipped Cabriolets, and the option of Mercedes' V6 BlueTec diesel engine in the E-Class Sedan. There have been minor exterior and interior design tweaks as well. The arrival of the Cabriolet and Wagon models expands the E-Class lineup. The BlueTec Diesel engine offers an option to an American market looking more and more for economy with luxury.
Driving Impressions There may be faster cars on the road than the 2011 Mercedes-Benz E-Class line, but there are few that can boast the blend of comfort, luxury, performance and image. Individual...shocks constantly adjust to road surface changes and driver demands, making the car firm and responsive through tight bends yet smooth on the highway. With its confidence-inspiring suspension and responsive steering, the E-Class makes for a remarkable vehicle. If you'd like to step out onto the edge a bit, the E63 AMG brings an upgraded engine, suspension and transmission to bear with remarkably impressive performance and handling precision in a sedan that seats five.
It's tough to get excited about safety features, but the DISTRONIC PLUS offers features are truly special. The PRE-SAFE Brake system uses radar to warn the driver of an imminent collision and can even modulate the brakes to minimize impact.
Sport Package
Ok, so the Sport Package only shows itself outwardly with bigger wheels and comes with a swanky contrasting interior. You should buy it for the lowered, stiffer and sportier suspension, which properly livens up the car's handling.
Every 2011 Mercedes-Benz E-Class comes richly fitted with standard equipment, providing comfort and convenience expected from the marque. From Burl Walnut trim to 14-way power seats with memory settings to the stereo/speaker/CD changer setup and mbrace navigation/support, the E-Class models are very well-equipped. There are a few differences of note: The E-Class Sedan and Wagon don't come with leather seats as standard, and the 60/40 rear bench of the Wagon is optional with the Sedan. A couple of controls have been repositioned for the 2011 models, but aside from that there haven't been any major changes. Front headroom and legroom is very good on all models; rear seats can be a bit cramped in the Coupe and Cabriolet but are very nice in the Sedan and Wagon. Luggage space is impressive across the line, even in the Cabriolet, and the soft top folds on itself to leave more usable trunk space than most competitors in its class.
The 2010 revamping of the E-Class exteriors combined muscular rear fenders with a signature front end into a look that is unmistakably that of a Mercedes-Benz. The Coupe's lack of a B-pillar gives it a smooth aesthetic and an air of class all its own. The Cabriolet shares its grille with the Coupe, and has an elegant soft top that blends nicely into its lines. The look with the soft-top is classic and, as you might expect, it weighs a lot less than a folding hardtop. The Wagon is a surprising treat; its roofline at some angles appears to carry a descending angle from front to back, while at others it seems to be a straight line to an expansive rear cargo area.
All 2011 E-Class models come with some pretty impressive standard features. Electronic Brake Assist and Mercedes-Benz's Electronic Stability Program are standard across the line, as is the 7-speed transmission with paddle shifters fitted behind the multifunction steering wheel. Also standard are the 8-speaker, 6-disc CD/DVD system and a 7-inch LCD to display navigation information, radio information and the like. Safety features include a litany of airbags plus the LATCH (lower anchors and tethers for children) system.
Options are available in a variety of packages or separately, and include Sport and Premium Packages. The Lane Tracking Package includes Blind Spot Assist and Lane Keeping Assist, and the Driver Assistance Package adds DISTRONIC PLUS with PRE-SAFE Braking. Other options include Bluetooth connectivity, iPod/mp3 capability, HD Radio, upgraded sound systems and more. For the Sedan and Wagon, leather upholstery is optional, and across the line you can get heated and ventilated front seats - or even a driver's seat with built-in massage.
With the addition of the BlueTec Diesel, the 2011 Mercedes-Benz E-Class line features four engines: The 210-horsepower, turbocharged 3.0-liter V6 BlueTec diesel; the 268-horsepower, 3.5-liter V6 of the E350 Series; a 382-horsepower, 5.5-liter V8 for the E550 cars and the monster 518-horsepower, 6.3-liter V8 of the E63 AMG. All E-Class engines run through Mercedes' seven-speed automatic transmission with optional manual paddle shifting. The E63 AMG is equipped with the tuner's Speedshift transmission with Race Start and rev matching.

Pros: "Fun to drive, comfortable, reliable, great design"
Cons: "costs of repairs....buy extended warranty for sure"

"I so enjoy driving my E350. Even if I am on the road for hours my body does not tire, ache or grow weary. I may get tired for lack of sleep but that has nothing to do with the driving of this car. The acceleration is awesome. Mine is midnight blue in color and I receive compliments almost daily. What was very important to me as well...the sound system. Turn on the sounds and hit the road."

Pros: "Exceptional mileage, performance and appearance"
Cons: "A bit on the pricey end"
Likely to recommend this car? (1-10): 10
"Driving the vehicle has not only been fun, but, satisfying too as you watch your fuel efficiency increase while you drive down the highway. The best MPG has been as high 42. Generally driving about town it is in low 30s but still much better than my old E350 gas model. The clean diesel technology leaves you with a quite and non-offense exhaust system that betters all gas vehicles, IMO. The vehicle handles exceptionally, and the acceleration is probably not what one would expect, but the torque clearly gives the vehicle a jump start that you might see in an electric car. ;)"

"I purchased this car last September with 18,000 miles. I love the car. I traded in a Honda Accord and the Mercedes is a much nicer car. It has great acceleration when needed, but still gets excellent gas mileage. It is not as fun to drive as my wife C350, but road trips are a pleasure. Make sure you have a warranty as any repairs will cost you both arms and both legs, but some things are just worth it."

I will use my energy & creativity to help craft a plan for county jail
To The Daily Sun,
If elected, I will work with the other Belknap County commissioners and the jail planning committee to choose an option that will do what we need to solve the jail problem for the long term and that will incorporate programs that work to reduce the jail population.
I have looked at the solutions chosen by Grafton, Sullivan, Merrimack, and Strafford counties. I have reviewed the Bennett report and recommendations. And, I have proposed working groups to address both pretrial detention and post trial sentencing alternatives to reduce the number of beds needed.
As a Laconia resident, I am extremely sensitive to our city's tax cap and the financial constraints throughout the county. I will use my energy and creativity to help craft a plan that will keep the project — including building and personnel costs — affordable and within the cap.
Please vote for me on Nov. 4.

Kathy Rago has impressed me with her caring attention to detail
To The Daily Sun,
I wholeheartedly support Kathy Rago's campaign for the New Hampshire Senate, District 7.
While in the state Senate, I worked closely with Kathy Rago on a number of education issues, and was constantly impressed with her caring, attention to detail, and concern for providing quality education for all children. She has consistently pursued measures that improve our public schools while also providing alternatives such as public charter schools and tax credit funded scholarships for the poor.
Her opponent, on the other hand sends his own children to the private school of his choice while voting to deny scholarships to children in poverty. Besides her education expertise, her previous work in the energy and health care professions are vitally needed in the Senate. Kathy Rago is one of the most compassionate and capable people I have seen run for the state Senate, and deserves your vote.

Gilford & Meredith to benefit imensely from electing George Hurt
To The Daily Sun,
I was raised and schooled in Gilford and had resided there for many years. I currently reside and conduct my business from Laconia. I have been following the politics at the state and county level and am appalled to read that Lisa DiMartino, Gilford's current representative to the Legislature, has consistently voted to raise taxes and fees on Gilford and Meredith taxpayers, as well as, increase regulations to stifle New Hampshire's job growth.
I understand from others, she claims she looks out for the taxpayer, but if you take a look at her voting record in the Legislature and at the county level it speaks volumes of raising taxes and fees for everyone. She voted "yes" to increase the gas tax by 67 percent. She voted "yes" to increase a fee on home heating oil. She voted "yes" to create a per-gallon fee on paint. And the list goes on. All this and more will surely affect all of us. From the homeowner, to the contractor, to the small businesses, all are trying to survive and keep their head above water. How is that looking out for the taxpayer?
It's time to elect individuals who will work for the taxpayer in doing their job they were elected to do, and one of those jobs should be to find ways not to just raise taxes and fees, that's the easy way out. Besides, we, the people, are running out of, or have no more money to give.!
How about finding places to cut the continuous waste of taxpayers' hard-earned money? It's time to get back to basics and learn what a budget is, what it is for. And here's a novel idea: Use it! There is a better choice in this year's Nov. 4 general election for Gilford and Meredith. The choice is clear, and if I could I would cast a vote for George Hurt a longtime Gilford resident. George has been a Laconia businessman for over 30 years and during that time he represented Gilford in the Legislature and served on the State Board of Education and the State's Judicial Conduct Commission.
I have known George as a friend for many years and can state without hesitation, that Gilford and Meredith taxpayers will benefit immensely with his position as representative on the county delegation and at the state level, too. I encourage my friends in Gilford and Meredith, please cast your vote on Nov. 4 for George. You will not be disappointed.

Tilton & Sanbornton will be well represented by Brian Gallagher
To The Daily Sun,
On General Election Day, Nov. 4, I would like to encourage those residing in House District 4 (Sanbornton and Tilton) to vote for Brian Gallagher. We will all be well represented by Brian when he is elected to the New Hampshire House of Representatives.
It's about time we had a representative who is responsive to our communities concerns and needs and who will always listen with an open mind to all of his constituents opinions.
Please join me on Nov. 4 and vote for Brian Gallagher.

Obamacare has been nothing short of success in New Hampshire
To The Daily Sun,
What is William Anderson talking about? He says Obamacare has been a disaster in New Hampshire. That is a falsehood, right out of right wing La-La Land. Obamacare has been a success in New Hampshire. According to the Sept. 14 New Hampshire Business Review, in the first five months of 2014, 22,000 previously uninsured people now have insurance. This is a 14 percent drop in the uninsured, and that doesn't include the rest of the year since. (See http://www.nhbr.com/September-19-2014/Study-NHs-uninsured-population-drops-by-22000/.)
According to the Wakely Consulting Group study, "the individual market in New Hampshire grew by 75 percent, or 26,000 people, with more than 40,000 signing up for coverage through the marketplace by May 1." Medicaid coverage also rose 8 percent or 9,000 folks in need.
William Anderson is as wrong as wrong can be on this one, blindly following the Tea Party propagandists. Bravo, Mr. President! Bravo Speaker Pelosi! Bravo Shea-Porter! Vote Democrat!

If you need 6 bottles of product for 3 processes, then that makes sense, if your buying in larger quantities. It would also make sense to combine products,
Actually there is a universal bleach Made by Trebla that actually claims usability on both E6 and C41.
Maybe the problem is us, maybe we are getting lazy.

Well, I'm not lazy, but I do have limited space. Even so, I wouldn't want to use separate bleach and fix for RA-4. RA-4 is designed for a combined bleach and fix. From everything I've read by experimenters on this forum, it's not a good idea to bleach and fix separately for RA-4.
Hey Mark and ctsundevil, thank you both for the detailed info on the products you are using and the usage information.

Wow thank you for sharing that. I'm (uncharacteristically) debating with myself whether experiencing 'Lucia 3' is right for me right now and with a group of people I don't know that well. I don't know why I'm hesitant (usually dive in to all new experiences with an open heart and mind).

KCRW Presents: Chromeo
By editor
Originally published on Thu September 4, 2014 1:32 pm
Flanked by a six-piece choir dubbed "The Chromettes," the Canadian electro-funk duo Chromeo recently unleashed a set of dance music on a small audience at Apogee Studios in Santa Monica. With David "Dave 1" Macklovitch on guitar and lead vocals and Patrick "P-Thugg" Gemayel on synths and Talk Box, Chromeo bounced between older hits and favorites from its new album White Women — including the catchy "Jealous (I Ain't With It)."

Proportional Fairness in Multi-Rate Wireless LANs
Date Added: Jan 2010
Format: PDF
In multi-rate wireless LANs, throughput-based fair bandwidth allocation can lead to drastically reduced aggregate throughput. To balance aggregate throughput while serving users in a fair manner, proportional fair or time-based fair scheduling has been proposed to apply at each Access Point (AP). However, since a realistic deployment of wireless LANs can consist of a network of APs, this paper considers proportional fairness in this much wider setting. The technique is to intelligently associate users with APs to achieve optimal proportional fairness in a network of APs.

Can finally share with you my latest collaboration for good mate Henry Wilson.
'Paperweight' was a design challenge issued by Henry for myself and fellow paper wiz Bianca Chang. With two interlocking brass cones to form a base, Henry asked us to create softer expressions using paper in a fusion of materials, shape and functionality.
My folding paper shades (no glue!) are off to the Milan Salone this week with Henry as part of The Other Hemisphere exhibition curated by Sarah K.
Very proud to be exhibiting something in Italy this year!

Tonight in Sydney there will be an opening for The Human Environment, an exhibition held to raise funds for newly formed Climate Council.
After the Australian government recently cut funding to the former Climate Commission, local fashion brand Sark Studio was motivated to rally and lend support.
In conjunction with the creative minds from The Glue Society twenty renowned artists from different creative disciplines were asked to submit an image which contained a shirt by Sark Studio.
The photographs are available through online auction (ending on February 23) with 100% of funds being donated to the Climate Council. It's a worthy cause!
My image 'Axis Mundi' was created with the help of talented photographer Bowen Arico.

At this rustic beach shack–style café on the rain forest–fringed Coral Sea shore, formerly Cafe on Sea, service can be surly, and food is typically stodgy and old-fashioned, but the location's terrific: nab an outside table and contemplate the ocean. If deep-fried fare doesn't appeal, opt for coffee and cake, or the smallish but relatively healthy mezze plate. Make phonecalls here: it's one of the few spots in the area that gets clear cell-phone reception.

Neonicotinoids are especially dangerous to bees and other insects because they are absorbed into plant tissues and distributed to new growth, including pollen collected and eaten by bees. This class of insecticide is known for its persistence in plant tissues and the environment, remaining deadly for months or even years. An increasing amount of evidence links neonicotinoids to the decline of bee populations worldwide.
The best advice: Purchase plants from local growers who don't use synthetic chemicals—or start your own plants from untreated seeds. Learn more about the Friends of the Earth BeeAction campaign at foe.org/beeaction.

Basil PestoYum
And again it is JULY at Yelton Manor Bed and Breakfast, and my afternoons are spent putting up the harvest as it comes in. Today: basil pesto, a fabulous summer YUM and winter staple if you simply plan ahead and freeze a boatload of it! If you are following my blog you already know that I love pestos of ALL kinds, and Basil Pesto is the King of Pesto, the original, the classic! I make it once a week this time of year, have dinner with some of it fresh each time and freeze the rest in ice cube trays for using on pizza and pasta throughout the winter.
Here's the simple recipe. Top off all your basil plants before they flower, gather a bag full! Or ask your local organic farmer to harvest some for you.
Pine nuts are toasted simply: put them into a dry pan and toast on a medium heat until fragrant and golden brown. The precious little nuts are pricey, I know, but that's what makes your pesto so awesome!!! SO worth it! Spend some cash on the very best Parmesan Reggiano cheese too, you're worth it. Remember: you cannot buy this kind of quality, delicious, healthy food, you can only make it yourself, so do it right and with the very best!
The ingredients are simple, cut this recipe by half if it's too big for your food processor, (I have a big monster, hooray!).
I reaped 12 cups if my own organic basil, first tops of the season!!! Added 12 garlic cloves, 2 cups toasted pine nuts, 8 oz grated Parmesan Reggianno cheese, 4 t salt, 2 t pepper, 2 2/3 cup olive oil, and presto it is pesto!!!
So, out of the processor it goes and into ice cube trays. These plastic trays are easy to find at The Dollar Store. Cover very tightly with saran, double wrapping to ensure a great seal against freezer burn.
After a day or two freezing up hard, simply transfer the lovely little squares of pesto to ZipLoc freezer bags (I'm a bit of an overkill freak so I double freezer bag them…).
Seriously, if the police ever raid the inn they will be certain that I have a freezer full of marijuana, but honestly, Officer, it's pesto!
Each square is a perfect size for a Naan pizza, or for two perfect bowls of pasta with marinara. If you purchase jars of basil pasta you will pay a fortune for it and you cannot trust that the ingredients are as pure and wholesome as what you put up yourself. Go ahead, be obsessive, it's the only way you can be certain to truly eat well any more!!!!!!! What a delight: summer PESTO…soon to be enjoyed in winter!!!!!!!
Sweet Pepper Egg Flowers!Yum
At Yelton Manor B&B we specialize in feeding 34 hungry holiday-ers every full inn morning. This calls for a big breakfast buffet where the hot egg dishes bake, family style, like casseroles. But sometimes we serve a smaller houseful, and we have fun creating beautiful plates that can only be possible with fewer diners.
Turn the corners of your lips UP into a big smile, because here is an easy technique that turns out a very lovely breakfast entree! And remember: breakfast is the new lunch and dinner too! 😉
Choose a red, yellow, orange, purple and/or green sweet pepper, crunchy fresh from The Farmer's Market. Core and slice into rounds. Make sure to trim any white pith inside, because it will be bitter.
No secret ingredients here, but we played around in The Manor kitchen to perfect the technique. Choose a nice fry pan that has a tight fitting lid, preferably see-through.
Use butter if you want a buttery, caramelized bottom on the fried egg. Use Pam or olive oil if you please. We used Pam and still got an excellent result. Grease the fry pan well.
Over a medium heat, warm the pan with the peppers laying flat. This pre-heating let's you drop the eggs into the peppers without significant leakage out of the form. Have a 1/4 cup of plain water nearby. Test the pan for readiness by flicking water drops…when the water sizzles your pan is ready.
Drop in the eggs. Garnish immediately with salt and pepper, we used snipped chives here. Feel free to creative.
Then pour the 1/4 cup of water around the edges of the pan and close with the tight lid. This will steam the eggs for a nice "over easy" effect, leaving a runny yolk, ideally, but cooking the whites satisfactorily.
Watch carefully for perfect doneness! Then plate up beautifully, garnish with snipped herbs and edible flowers from the garden, and delight your diners!!! Today we served whole grain bagels on the side, and pumpkin muffins too. As a healthy, delicious accompaniment, we frequently add hot, sliced, baked sweet potato rounds to the plate.
This is a simple, lovely presentation and would be beautiful on a "breakfast in bed" tray too!!!
Asparagus SoupYum
It's SPRING!! And all Yelton Manor Bed and Breakfast food cravings are for asparagus! Here's a simple but elegant, creamy soup that has a few ingredients that make it extra exciting: paprika for a subtle heat, spinach for a brighter green color, a runny poached egg dropped into it for comfort and some great homegrown herbs for dazzle. There is no cream in this soup, but it still comes out very rich and creamy. Serves 6.
Start with a large leek, white and green parts, sliced down the middle then sliced into half moons. Saute in a tablespoon or two of olive oil along with 1 teaspoon of minced garlic. When they are tender, about 10 minutes, add a teaspoon of Hungarian paprika.
Prepare 1 1/2 lbs of fresh asparagus, simply chop into 1/2 inch pieces.
Add 3 cups of vegetable stock, preferably homemade, to the pot, along with the asparagus. Cook until tender, about 15 minutes.
Now you're cooking! When the asparagus is tender, add a cup of fresh spinach. Stir in and take pot off heat. Place the soup in a blender and whir it up to a creamy consistency. Return soup to pan to keep warm until serving.
Time to go raid the spring herb garden! I love the taste of French tarragon, very licorice. Chives are always great, also fresh parsley. Chop for topping off the soup bowls.If desired, poach 6 eggs until just perfect, solid whites/runny yolk. Fill 6 bowls with soup, drop a poached egg into the center of each and top off with your herbs. Voila!! Enjoy!
Yelton Manor B&B Sun Dried Tomato PestoYum
I love pesto!! It's so versatile for pasta dishes or bruschetta and so easy to whirl up in a food processor. Of course I'm addicted to traditional basil pesto, but sometimes, especially when it's not summer and herb season, I love to experiment with other ways to make a pungent, garlicky, cheesy, herb spread. Sun dried tomatoes! It's another pantry staple too, so you can whip this up when unexpected company arrives! If you have a notion to dry your own tomatoes, by the way, I always use the recipe and technique from about.com. But store bought is fine too. In this recipe the spinach stands in for the green, but basil is great too.
1 cup sun dried tomatoes
2 cups fresh spinach
6 cloves garlic
1/4 cup lemon juice
1/2 cup olive oil
1/2 cup pine nuts
3/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese.
Soak the tomatoes in water to soften them, then drain. Combine everything in a food processor until blended well into a perfect, pasty pesto!!
Artichoke Pesto on CrostiniYum
At Yelton Manor B&B we believe in the power of pesto, it's true, and this easy beauty proves that you don't even need to start with a green herb to make it! Mercy, this is so good. Simply put in food processor:
1 12oz jar marinated artichokes, drained
4 T finely grated Parmesan Reggiano cheese
2 T olive oil.
Blend until coarsely chopped, not too smooth. Taste and adjust for salt and freshly ground pepper.
Here's the real trick to making these awesome: the crostini. Slice a French baguette into 1/2 inch rounds. Melt unsalted butter with minced garlic and spread on. Then toast them.
Spread the toasted crostinis with the artichoke pesto, and finish with a sprinkling of very fresh, minced, Italian parsley.
Pesto mixture can be made a day ahead, cover and chill.
White Bean and Tuna BruschettaYum
Though we keep a vegetarian kitchen at Yelton Manor B&B, we always include some meat and fish options on the party appetizer table for friends and family who love it. When considering fish, tuna is always a handy 'pantry ready' choice, but on big special occasions I like to mound up a shrimp bowl around a spicy horseradish red sauce, or a side of smoked salmon with fabulous adornments, like capers, boiled egg, small dice red onion and perhaps cream cheese. But everyday tuna (please do splurge on fine quality canned tuna, of course) dresses up a snidge in this simple appetizer that is easy to make and everyone snatches it up happily. It's a simple comfort food, no shame in that!
Here's what we love best when we make this: snip the parsley very very fresh from the garden. When it's full of water and crisp as can be, it adds the perfect crunch to this appetizer. We consider this munchie much diminished with store bought limp parsley, but use it if you have no other options.
1 can Great Northern Beans, drained and rinsed
kosher salt
thinly sliced celery (preferably the tender heart)
2 can albacore tuna
Finely chopped parsley (and are you in the mood for dill? Maybe.) to taste and color
2 T fresh lemon juice
freshly ground pepper
1/4 cup capers (optional, I only use them when in a salty kind of mood)
Optional ingredients you may want to add: diced sun dried tomato, diced red bell pepper, pickle relish, mustard, garlic, diced black olives, diced pepperoncini, what are you feeling like today?
Combine. Toss with just enough mayo to bind, keep it light. Try not to break up the tuna or beans too much. Serve on small party square breads for hors d'oeuvres, or toasted baguette slices.
For a warm bite, toast quickly, perhaps with a small amount of cheddar cheese. Nice on a toasted whole grain English Muffin too.
For sandwich or pita, or rolled up in a tortilla, add some tomato and red leaf lettuce, perhaps some homemade hummus, top with sprouts.
Yelton Manor B&B: We love PESTO!Yum
Since becoming such an avid herb gardener AND a vegetarian in the last decades, I have become quite willing to take on nearly any adventure imaginable that blends a green leafy herb with a you-name-it nut, garlic, Parmesan cheese and olive oil. There is no end to it! Freeze it, store it, use it for pasta, pizza, bruschetta, this is the simplest, healthiest, tastiest and most beautiful food! Tonight I improvised this concoction, made affordable in winter with some organic baby arugula as the heft of it, accented with some basil. Arugula has an unexpected and pleasant bitterness, very ooh-la-la when used right. I used a penne pasta, absolutely fabulous, but anything you like will work fine. I double the recipe and freeze 1/2 in ice cube trays and use the individual cubes in forthcoming dinners. And don't forget breakfast, where pesto of all kinds works beautifully with egg dishes like frittatas!
Penne Pasta with Arugula Pesto
1/4 cup chopped walnuts
3 cloves garlic
2 cups chopped arugula
1/4 cup chopped fresh basil
1/2 cup olive oil
1/3 cup grated Parmsan cheese
pinch salt, pinch cayenne
Chop the walnuts and garlic in the food processor. Add arugula and basil until chopped, run the olive oil in a stream until a nice paste forms. Transfer to a bowl and mix in the cheese, salt and cayenne. Use however you please!
Herbed and Spiced ButterYum
My husband and fellow Yelton Manor innkeeper, Robert, is a butter freak. He slathers it on everything. I was never much for butter until we started buying organic, sweet cream butter, sometimes imported from France. There IS a difference, and butter can be very, dangerously good.
Butter can also be a main event at the dinner table when paired with exactly the right herbs.
The recipe is simple: pick an herb or spice and mix it with excellent butter. Serve formally by piping it onto individual dishes, or just in a bowl family style, whatever fits the occasion. If you want pretty slices, simply wrap the herb butter in saran wrap , form into a perfectly round log, chill and then slice.
This is also a great way to use up the remainder of those expensive herb packets that you buy in the winter. Make rosemary butter! Or thyme butter! Sage butter! Try different combinations on meats, vegetables and straight on your bread. Mint is my current fave, can't get enough of it.
At The Manor we grow 3 kinds of sage, 3 kinds of basil, rosemary, thyme, flat and curly parsley, 3 kinds of mint, 2 kinds of chive, rue, lavender, oregano, marjoram, tarragon, dill, chervil, anise, cilantro, lemon verbena and evn more in pots surrounding the walkways and parking lot.
The heat of the pavement keeps them producing heartily through the season. Growing in pots also keep the invasive herbs from taking over in the perennial garden.
Item for a Lull in Conversation: Herbs are made from leaves and spices are made from seeds.
Spices can also be made from other things like bark (cinnamon) or roots (ginger).

Originally written on Fox Sports Ohio | Last updated 4/3/13
CINCINNATI (AP) -- Joey Votto's first hit of the season wasn't all that pretty, but the timing and placement were perfect. Votto's hard grounder deflected off the glove of first baseman Albert Pujols and drove in the winning run in the bottom of the ninth inning Wednesday night, sending the Cincinnati Reds to a 5-4 victory over the Los Angeles Angels. Brandon Phillips hit a three-run homer in his new role as Cincinnati's cleanup hitter, and Votto provided the clincher with his first hit after an 0-for-6 start to the season. "It's important to get that first win and get the winning going," Votto said. His game-winning hit left the teams even heading into the finale of the first interleague series to start a season. The Angels won the opener 3-1 in 13 innings. "I loved the way we played on opening day," Phillips said. "This team never gives up. Everybody picks each other up. We stayed in the game and got it done." Left-hander Scott Downs (0-1) came on to start the ninth and hit Shin-S...

Editor's note: This article was modfied to correct erroneous information regarding a planned Congressional hearing.
Congress is asking for input on a draft cybersecurity reform bill that will help shape how lawmakers update federal legislation protecting U.S. networks and critical infrastructure last handed down a decade ago.
A series of hearings, which began last summer, will continue as Congress looks to overhaul Federal Information Security Management Act 2002 this year, according to Federal News Radio and staffers at the office of Rep. Darrell Issa (R-Calif.).
Cybersecurity has been a hotly debated issue in recent months, with legislators on both sides of the aisle demanding action be taken to protect the nation's critical infrastructure and networks.
"Every day, our nation's information systems are under attack. Congress and the rest of the federal government must work diligently to prepare better defenses against attacks that continue to grow in both number and complexity," Issa wrote on a website called keepthewebopen.com, where a draft of the bill was posted.
The first hearing is entitled "Cybersecurity: Assessing the Immediate Threat to the United States."
Comments on the draft are invited as Congress works to bring the decade-old legislation up to date.
"The Federal Information Security Amendments Act of 2012 enhances the Federal Information Security Management Act (FISMA) of 2002 by improving the framework for ensuring security over the information technology systems that support the federal government. It establishes a mechanism for stronger oversight through a focus on automated and continuous monitoring of cybersecurity threats and conducting regular threat assessments," the website noted.

Winter!: Prepare for holiday gaming!
A nice game about the universe of Star Wars... I didn't liked too much the gameplay. As a SW game, I hoped it would be a little more of action rather than the old point and click system.
But the graphics are good and the storyline makes up to everything else.

1. G Brad Lewis, known as Volcano Man, photographed his friend Bern standing in front of exploding lava at the edge of Kilauea Volcano in Hawaii. Brad says: "Bern has hot lava literally landing at his feet. It is as hot as one can stand to be next to, and it and burns any exposed skin – but the images are just so cool."
2. Brad, 54, who has been photographing the Kilauea Volcano, the most active on earth, for over 20 years, said:"It's such stunningly beautiful, powerful force. Being near an eruption is an awesome experience.You are never quite the same after seeing flowing lava."

U.S. News Review
Located about 15 miles northwest of downtown Victoria, Brentwood Bay Resort & Spa is praised by guests for its serene atmosphere, ornately decorated rooms and bevy of amenities. Each room comes with a patio or balcony with ocean views, complimentary Wi-Fi, a 40-inch flat-screen TV, and a jetted tub and a "body massage" shower. Meanwhile, the spa offers a variety of health and beauty services, including massages, facials, body wraps and couples treatments. Many visitors say this hotel's emphasis on privacy and relaxation makes it perfect for a romantic getaway. Past lodgers are just as complimentary of the dining options. The Seagrille Seafood & Sushi restaurant provides guests with a plethora of fresh regional dishes. Meanwhile, Brentwood Pub offers lighter fare and locally crafted beers, along with picturesque vantage points of the Marina. Though nearby attractions are limited, the resort does offer a water shuttle to the popular Butchart Gardens (for a $35 CAD fee). You can also borrow one of the hotel's kayaks and paddle your own way to the gardens.How we rank hotels

2/28/2015It crashes too many times!!!!!!!!!!!!😠
12/27/2014I really like this game. I truly do, but I don't feel right recommending a game that someone puts on the store and expects money to trickle in forever without ever updating it. It is beautiful in my 1520, the big screen actually makes it great to play (though a bit too easy) and it is tons of fun and rewarding. However, you can only play in one orientation, which just happens to be the one that keeps my fingers where the phone gets hot. It has not been updated with new levels or any such thing in over a year. And, while I have yet to see it on my 1520, I did get the bug where it would lock up the keys on my 810. I don't think the developer deserves to be paid for this anymore. Not until a good update. The trial should provide some good fun though.
8/26/2014Doesn't work on lumia 930!!!
8/5/2014*** no multiplayer....
7/10/2014Not even worth it
5/13/2014Makes Lumia 1520 run very hot, otherwise game is great. Please fix!
4/28/2014The game is awesome! But it crashes more than it works...
4/6/2014Why doesn't it have multiplayer :(
2/17/2014Lag on my lumia 720.
1/11/2014Incredible game and loads of fun however it would be nice if the multiplayer function was added like it is on the apple version and there are also multiple minor glitches but over all wonderful!

Celtics waive Pruitt
|07.31.09 at 10:50 pm ET
On Friday the Boston Celtics announced they had requested waivers on guard Gabe Pruitt. He appeared in 62 games and averaged 2.0 points per game over the last two seasons. He also spent time with the Celtics former NBA Development League affiliate, the Utah Flash. This month Pruitt posted nearly 11 points and five assists at the Orlando Summer League. He was drafted by the Celtics out of USC with the 32nd pick in the 2007 NBA Draft.
As he explains in this NBA TV interview from Summer League, Pruitt had hoped to make his mark on the Celtics next season:
Starbury TV: Ballet, Bottled Water and Vaseline
|07.28.09 at 11:20 pm ET
On Tuesday night Stephon Marbury gave another glimpse into his life on Starbury TV. Highlights included:
– After proclaiming, "I'm just talking and I'm going on and on," Marbury declared, "I don't play basketball no more. I'm an entertainer."
– He later poured a bottle of water on himself while rapping Rocko's "Umma do me" and laughed that people would question him for doing so. Water dries, he pointed out and then wrapped himself in a towel.
– Showing off his hidden talents, Marbury attempted to perform ballet in his kitchen. "That's how you stay nasty on the court," he said.
– Marbury may not know where he is playing next season, but he has a gameplan mapped out should he leave the NBA. "If I go overseas, it's going to be like playing in high school again," he said. "I'm going to go over there with the mind frame that I'm going to average 50. That's my word. I'm going over there with a different mind frame."
– As for eating Vaseline, Marbury's done with that — "Oh I'm sorry. The Vaseline, it's over with. "
Report: Delay in Daniels Deal
|07.27.09 at 3:54 pm ET
Even though Marquis Daniels committed to the Celtics over a week ago, the Boston Celtics and Indiana Pacers have yet to agree on how the free agent would end up in green, whether it is by a sign-and-trade or a biannual exception.
On Monday the Boston Herald reported the talks between the two teams have hit a snag and they are seeking out a third team to help facilitate the deal. According to the Herald, the Pacers are not satisfied with the players the Celtics are offering for a sign-and-trade, reportedly Tony Allen and possibly Gabe Pruitt.
The Herald quoted a source as saying, "They need a third team, and that's complicated. No other teams have jumped at it so far."

July 27: Remembering Reggie Lewis
|07.27.09 at 9:18 am ET
July 27 marks the 16th anniversary of the passing of Reggie Lewis. Today the Celtics blog LOY'S PLACE takes an in-depth look back at his life and career in Boston:
He was the quiet Celtic with a smile that was infectious. He was reserved and somewhat shy but his actions, both on and off the basketball court, spoke much louder than any words could ever do. He was the captain of the Boston Celtics and their leading scorer. He was a devoted husband, father and a friend to all who knew him well. He was the hope of a new Celtics generation. Reggie Lewis was only 27 years old when he died of a heart attack on Tuesday, July 27, 1993. We still tearfully remember him today, 16 years later. (via RedsArmy.com)
Lewis was drafted by the Celtics with the 22nd pick in the 1987 NBA Draft. Highlights of his six-year career included selection to the 1992 NBA All-Star team, leading the Celtics in minutes and points for three consecutive seasons (1991-93), and becoming the only player in team history to record 100 rebounds, 100 assists, 100 steals, and 100 blocked shots in a season (1992). Lewis' number, 35, was retired on March 22, 1995.

Breakthrough advanced option trading techniques for serious investors, traders, hedge fund managers, and Wall Street quants.
Sophisticated options traders need systematic, reliable approaches for identifying the best option combinations, underlying assets, and strategies. This book makes these approaches available for the first time. Leading-edge traders and researchers Sergey Izraylevich and Vadim Tsudikman treat the option market as a whole: an unlimited set of trading variants composed of all option combinations that can be constructed at any specific time moment (using all possible strategies and underlying assets). They introduce a system that permits thorough analysis and comparison of many option combinations in terms of both expected profitability and potential risk. For the first time, they formalize and classify more than a dozen criteria intended to select preferable trading alternatives from a vast quantity of potential opportunities, and show how to apply multiple valuation criteria concurrently to select the best possible trades. By applying these principles consistently, traders can systematically identify subtle price distortions using proven statistical parameters. They can gain a clear and consistent advantage over competing traders, transforming option trading into a continuous process of profit generation with tightly controllable parameters of risk and profitability.

Dwight Freeney's financial adviser and her lover were arrested on charges of stealing $2.2 million from the Indianapolis Colts' defensive end. Eva Weinberg and Michael Stern were arrested last week by the FBI on federal wire fraud charges. Henry Bell, an attorney for Stern, denied that his client and Weinberg stole the money from Freeney. Weinberg, who served as Freeney's financial adviser for the past two years, posted $225,000 bond. Freeney, 32, has spent his entire career with the Colts, amassing 102.5 sacks in 149 games.
