Half of the reviews on this page appear to be from people with some kind of axe to grind about the lack of good Mexican food in NYC. This isn't the southwest. Deal with it. There's no good Hawaiian food here either. That being said, El Loco Burrito has good Mexican fast food by NYC standards. They give you a ton of food for the cash, the service is great, and the food is tasty. "Oh, but it's not as good as this one taco stand I used to go to in Cali..." shut up. No one cares. Stop being pretentious and enjoy the burritos.

This place does not pose to be some gourmet restaurant; it is what it is and it's cheap. My go-to when I have a hang over. I love it for that!

By far the most flavorless mexican in nyc. The Quesadillas are like cardboard and the fillings are even worse. The guacamole is basically huge chunks of tomato with a light green coating. Very disapointing.

Nice people. Love the fajitas and can't get enough of that pico de gallo. Yummy.

This place is adorable, the walls are covered in stickers. No waiting time even if you get deliver when they say five minutes, they mean it your food will be at your door step in five. The burritos are a great value enough for two people to share.

The class was offered through the North House Folk School in Grand Marais, a school that is focused on "celebrating traditional northern crafts." They offer all kinds of classes - woodworking, outdoor skills, ecology, various art forms, timber framing, knitting, and even a blacksmith class, to name a few. And of course, there are some food classes as well.
I attended a half day course called "Cooking with the Seasons." It was held inside the kitchen of Chez Jude, a well respected fine dining restaurant in Grand Marais. The chef and owner of Chez Jude, Chef Judi Barsness, was our instructor.
The theme of this course was wild rice, a rice-like grain famous in Minnesota, hand harvested by a local source. Wild rice would appear in each of our dishes - wild rice chowder with wild rice and thyme scones, roast duck with wild rice and butternut squash "orzotto" (a risotto made with orzo pasta and wild rice) and cranberry port chutney, and wild rice waffles with caramelized apples and sage ice cream.
We were divided up into teams. I ended up on the wild rice chowder team, and we also ended up making the cranberry port chutney. There were only eight students in the class, so there was a lot of personal attention and it was easy to ask questions. It was a good group, too. Lots of friendly folks with a common interest, so it was enjoyable cooking with like-minded people.
The chowder we made was a lighter version, made with the classic mirepoix, leeks, bacon, shiitake mushrooms, and lots of chicken stock with a little white wine and just a touch of half and half for some creaminess. It was fun to prepare the chowder with my team. Chef Judi made sure we tasted at various stages for proper seasoning (when we tasted early on, we declared it needed a little more of "everything!", and we increased the amount of herbs, salt, and pepper accordingly until it was to our liking).
We also were tasked with making a cranberry port chutney, which consisted of frozen cranberries, dried cranberries, port wine, orange juice, and local maple syrup. "Chutney" was more of a play on words, as this was really an elegant and sweet cranberry sauce. I told Chef Judi that I would put this on ice cream, to which she replied, "Now you're talking!" :)
While we worked on teams, Chef Judi always made sure we all got to see, and even feel, various important stages of the other dishes being prepared so we did not miss out on anything. So, we got to see how wet and loose the dough for the scones was, how the duck breasts are scored before roasting, how the "orzotto" comes together, etc. The Chef was a great instructor.
Each team was tasked with serving their dishes. Our wild rice chowder was served with wild rice scones. As noted earlier, the chowder was a lighter version that was more stock-based, different from the heavier, creamier wild rice soups that are popular here. It was delicate, nutty, sweet, and light. Delicious. But the wild rice scones absolutely rocked. I have never had a scone so light and fluffy with such a fine crumb. Awesome. (Sorry, I didn't get a photo of our dish - I have trouble photographing soup!)
The main course was the roast duck with wild rice and butternut squash "orzotto" and our cranberry port chutney. The duck was outstanding, roasted in the restaurant's wood burning oven, cooked to a perfect medium rare. And while not being a fan of squash, I found the "orzotto" very flavorful. I loved the contrasting texture of the soft orzo pasta and the somewhat puffy wild rice. The cranberry chutney added a nice sweetness to round out the dish.
The roast duck and wild rice "orzotto" we prepared for class, along with the chutney my team made
Dessert was really interesting - wild rice waffles with caramelized apples and sage ice cream. The waffles contained wild rice and were seasoned with "fall spices" (cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg, clove), so they had a lot of flavor on their own. They apples added a syrupy sweetness. Sage ice cream falls into that "sounds weird, but is really good" category - Chef Judi explained to us that sage is from the mint family, so it makes sense that it can be used in ice cream. And she was right. It was incredible. You definitely have a dusty sage flavor, but there is also a lot of sweetness, and it did indeed taste sort of minty!
Wild rice waffles for dessert!
I had the best time. What I learned, and a couple of mistakes that were made:
1. I need better knives! The chefs knife I used to dice bacon, finely slice leeks, and plow through a couple cups worth of fresh shiitake mushrooms, cut like a laser. Must get new knives!
2. It was really interesting to cook in a professional kitchen and to see the environment the chef and her staff get to cook in. It was small, and on a busy day they crank out 100 covers for dinner. Incredible that they can put together all those amazing dinners on a six burner stove.
3. The scone recipe was nice to see demonstrated because the dough looks almost too wet and loose. It became clear to me that this would be easy to overwork, so the key to the scones appears to be that you mix until it barely comes together, and then just walk away! Related to this, I learned that flour ages and may require more or less liquid depending upon how old the flour is, and that is why feeling the texture of the dough becomes so important.
4. Mistake #1 - The "orzotto" recipe - this was stirred too much and broke up the chunks of butternut squash too much. The flavor was still good, but the chef wanted to be able to see the chunks and retain that texture. So, a gentler hand was needed when stirring.
5. Mistake #2 - Caramelized apples need to be made in something other than a non-stick skillet! We essentially made a flavorful apple sauce, and it didn't quite achieve the correct brown color and sticky texture. Tasty indeed, but not quite what we were after.
In the end, it was a most enjoyable experience. I had a blast. Chef Judi did a really nice job working with all of us in her kitchen, my classmates were fun, and I learned a few tips along with some nice recipes I got to take home (well, except for the sage ice cream, which is a restaurant secret!). What a great day! I definitely want to do this again.
Thanks for my "Masters Division" gift, Mom! :)

Drawing Words & Writing Pictures is a systematic course on that teaches the alchemical art of combining words and pictures to make comics. In it, we have laid out a complete, structured syllabus that guides students from creating narrative within a single drawing to orchestrating all the skills involved in creating a multi-page, complex story.
- learn to exploit word-image juxtaposition
- explore panel transitions
- overcome penciling obstacles
- master the fundamentals of story structure
- lay out comics pages clearly and quickly
- apply principles of composition to your work
- letter dialogue and narration and design titles
- create compelling characters
- learn to ink with a brush and a nib pen
- develop convincing visual environments
There's a website that goes along with the book to help people using the book on their own, outside of a classroom, and for teachers who want to incorporate DWWP into their curriculum. Check it out here: dw-wp.com
Read an excerpt of Drawing Words & Writing Pictures, or buy it from the publisher or your favorite vendor.
Written at a college level for use in organized courses or for independent study, the DWWP method foregrounds visual and structural storytelling, with frequent dips into the nuts and bolts of actually getting ideas on paper, including thumbnailing, penciling, lettering, and inking with both a nib and a brush. Students will also learn principles such as composition as it applies to the panel and the page.
Unlike existing instructional books devoted to comics, which lack both concrete exercises and progress markers, this is a true textbook that has a cumulative and carefully systematized methodology. Each of the fifteen chapters focuses on a particular aspect of comics and comes complete with homework, extra credit activities and supplementary reading suggestions. Illustrated extensively by the authors and with numerous examples of international masters of the medium, DWWP provides a comprehensive introduction to the form that will give students the tools to create their own works in this art on the rise.
The ideas and methods taught in DWWP apply equally to all kinds of long-form graphic narrative: whether one page to a thousand, whether superheroes, manga, memoir, or any other narrative approach. We do not discriminate based on style or story content. These tools will serve all.
Additional resources for students and teachers are available on the accompanying website, DW-WP.com.

Lawsuit Against Paul McKee's Northside Regeneration Transferred to Supreme Court
Categories: NorthSide Development
|Photo by Jennifer Silverberg
|Paul McKee now must wait for the Supreme Court to determine whether he can keep his TIF
Judges Robert Dowd, Mary Hoff and Sherri Sullivan agree with 22nd Circuit Judge Robert H. Dierker, who ruled in July 2010 that the City should not have awarded the developer any subsidies because, under state statute, his plans weren't specific enough.
However, the judges have decided to send the case to their robed colleagues in Jefferson City, writing:
We would affirm the trial court's judgment; however, due to the general interest or importance of questions involved, we transfer the case to the Supreme Court.
"I think that it's a step in the right direction," says Bevis Schock, the Clayton-based attorney representing the plaintiff residents who own property within the footprint of McKee's vision (a.k.a., NorthSide Regeneration). "The public needs to understand that [the appeals judges] completely bought all of our arguments, but it's not a final decision. The Supreme Court's gonna have a fresh look at it. It's like a brand-new appeal."
Paul Puricelli, the attorney representing McKee, tells Daily RFT:
Most importantly, Paul McKee remains committed to this project. Secondly, we think the Court of Appeals got it wrong, so we're glad that they're going to leave [the final call] to somebody else.Read our coverage of the original suit, Dierker's decision, the contentious run-up to the appeals hearing, and the hearing itself. You can also read today's entire opinion after the jump.
I would hope everybody keeps in mind that the TIF portion of project is for public infrastructure - things like sewers, sidewalks. So to the extent that that this ruling delays a final ruling on those issues, it's the people of the north side that suffer. They need sewers. They need sidewalks. That's the shame of it.

Graduate student Meghan Andrews wins Mellon/ACLS Fellowship
Posted: April 9, 2013
The Department of English congratulates graduate student Meghan Andrews for winning a Mellon/ACLS Dissertation Completion Fellowship. The fellowship supports a year of research and writing for advanced doctoral candidates in the humanities to allow them to finish their dissertations.
According to the Mellon/ACLS wesbite, applicants are judged based on the potential of the project to advance the field of study in which it is proposed and make an original and significant contribution to knowledge; the quality of the proposal with regard to its methodology, scope, theoretical framework, and grounding in the relevant scholarly literature; the feasibility of the project and the likelihood that the applicant will execute the work within the proposed timeframe; and the scholarly record and career trajectory of the applicant. Andrews' award letter explained that she is "one of seventy awardees selected from a total of nearly 1,000 completed applications from advanced graduate students at 115 universities. This year's awardees represent thirty-two universities, and seventeen disciplines."
Her winning proposal:
"Shakespeare's Networks" argues that Shakespeare's social relationships and institutional affiliations greatly affected the composition of his works. Combining an examination of his intertextual engagements with an investigation of the social contexts through which he knew his fellow authors, it traces how Shakespeare's writing practice grew in a dialectical process with his peers', and how institutional atmospheres such as the Middle Temple's conditioned this dialectic. This dissertation, contending that we need to study these influences when assessing his literary agenda, reads Shakespeare's works against the backdrop of his social networks in order to achieve a fuller understanding of the works themselves, his writing practice, and his place in early modern literary culture.

Albuquerque's Ronald McDonald House is celebrating its 30th anniversary this year. In that time, many families with hospitalized children - many from out of town - have stayed at the house.
Jesse Pride knows what a difference the house makes, as does his mother.
"In '82, Spinal Bifida, not a lot was known about it. I was born in Durango, but we lived in Aztec," Pride said.
Pride's mother was single and working, trying to make ends meet.
"All of a sudden, knowing you have to travel three hours away to get the treatment your child needs," Pride's mother said.
"We had to come to Albuquerque two or three times a month to get rehab, to get physical therapy. I've had over 50 operations," Pride said.
Many of those times, when Pride was in the hospital, his mother stayed at Albuquerque's Ronald McDonald House, as have a lot of other families.
Albuquerque's Ronald McDonald House has served 45,000 families in their 30 year history.
Tuesday, Pride was at the Ronald McDonald House with his mother next to him.
It was an open house, to recognize its 30 years of service.
Pride was there to stand up for a place that was there when his family and others have needed it the most.
Albuquerque's Ronald McDonald Hose started with eight rooms in 1982, then it expanded to 18.
Now, they have 30 rooms for families to stay in, and they're getting ready to open up a new Ronald McDonald "Family Room" inside Presbyterian Hospital.

COLUMBIA CITY — The Whitley County Consolidated School Corporation's Board of School Trustees was introduced last week to a comprehensive math program being conducted at Indian Springs Middle School.
Hollie Parker and Beth Beckner, seventh-grade math teachers at ISMS, told the board Jan. 17 that students at the middle school were advancing past their grade levels and added that those who were falling behind were being given a boost.
"We have approximately one half of our eighth graders taking Algebra I, half of our seventh graders taking pre-algebra, and half of our sixth graders taking seventh-grade math," said Parker.
Parker told the board students are placed with other students of equal or similar skill levels, a technique called "ability grouping."
"Studies show that children need to be ability grouped," she said.
"This way, we're meeting all of our students' needs."
For those falling behind, a "remediation class" is created.
Parker said the classes are for students who didn't pass ISTEP (Indiana Statewide Testing for Educational Progress) from the year before.
"Through this remediation class, we are able to meet with students an extra 30 minutes a day," Parker said.
"We work on skills that have not yet been mastered and the skills and standards that they are currently working on in regular math class."
Parker told the board the special classes were showing results.
"I can't even tell you how much it helps the students," she said. "The confidence it builds, just within that 30 minutes is awesome."
The teachers told the board students are given real-world scenarios to help put their studies into a tangible perspective.
Another part of the program, according to Parker and Beckner, is the grading technique called a "common assessment."
"We determine, 'what core standards do our students need?' Then we build a common assessment," said Parker.
"We're trying to give our kids the opportunity to be their very best."
The program is not without its challenges, according to Beckner who said students need strong attendance in order for retention to occur.
"One of our biggest problems is students moving in and moving out," said Beckner, referring to a trend in recent years for students to be migratory, sometimes spending parts of the school year in several different school systems.
"That is a big transition, especially for middle school students," she said.
"When students aren't in the classroom, this creates problems."

Lebanon Without Government and the Syrian Contagion
Lebanese President Michel Suleiman accepted the resignation of Prime Minister Najib Mikati on Saturday. The outgoing Prime Minister called for a caretaker government to be appointed to lead the country, as opposing forces threaten to drag Lebanon into the turmoil and bloodshed of the Syrian civil war.
Prime Minister Mikati was forced to resign due to strong pressure from Hezbollah. Hezbollah is a Shia militia force with links to both Iran and to President Assad's government in Syria, which they have supported throughout the conflict in that country. Hezbollah fighters have engaged Syrian rebels close to the border between the two countries, as well as providing non-military support to Assad's government. The group wields great power in Lebanon, thanks in part to their leading role in fighting the Israeli military in previous conflicts. The group opposed Mikati's plans to extend the term of senior security official Major General Ashraf Rifi – a Sunni Muslim from Tripoli – as well as the planned creation of a new body to oversee elections scheduled for June.
The June election may now be delayed. It could take months of political wrangling just to form a caretaker government, which must be done before elections can proceed.
This political vacuum leaves Lebanon at even greater risk of being dragged into the war in Syria. The same ethnic fault-lines which are fuelling the war in Syria are also present in Lebanon, and there had already been several outbreaks of violence between supporters and opponents of Assad's government, even before this weeks renewed tensions
Saturday saw a third day of clashes between Sunni and Shia militias in Lebanon's northern city of Tripoli. One man was killed by a sniper and two others were wounded. Sunni groups support the largely Sunni rebels fighting in Syria, whereas Shia groups such as Hezbollah support the Shia government of Bashar al Assad. Many in Lebanon have strong family connections to Syria, and the massive influx of refugee into Lebanon only serves to increase sectarian tensions.
In Lebanon's northern port city of Tripoli – a hotspot for such sectarian tensions – sporadic clashes between the two groups have been reported throughout the last three days. On Saturday one man was killed by a sniper, and two others were wounded.

Pangolins are usually solitary and nocturnal. They are generally timid and wary in character.
They live in underground burrows that they dig out themselves or modify those created by other animals. Depth depends on the soil; in loose soil burrows may be over 600cm deep. The burrow terminates in a large chamber. The entrance is blocked with soil or other material when the pangolin is in residence (Lekagul, 1988).
Pangolins generally move slowly on all fours with a shuffling gait. The fore-claws are folded inwards so that the pangolin walks on its knuckles.
The tail is carried elevated slightly off the ground (Nowak, 1999).They are able to stand upright with the aid of their tail as a balance. Pangolins can move up to 3mph when moving bipedally (Macdonald, 1984).
Pangolins use a 'caterpillar motion' to climb trees using their feet and claws. Laterally projecting scales at the side of the tail assist with gripping the trunk when climbing. They may be found feeding or resting in trees (Lekagul, 1988).
They can also hang by their tail-tip but tire quickly (Banks, 1949). View an image of a pangolin hanging by its tail.
When disturbed they roll into a ball so the armoured tail and limbs protect the soft underparts. They are said to coil up so tightly that they cannot be unrolled. The scales are erected and shuddering movements of the scales and tail act as a further deterrent to predators (Nowak, 1999).
They are also known to secrete acrid liquid from the anal region when threatened (Jentink, 1908).
Pangolins have been seen taking 'ant baths'. They roll in a nest, trapping ants under their scales and then submerge themselves in water to remove the ants. It is suspected this behaviour is used to clean their skin and scales (Nowak, 1999).
While pangolins are not known to migrate, they do have several methods for marking their territory. Discover more about the territory marking methods and territory sizes of Manis javanica.

Google Glass: Why are we so excited about a glorified camcorder? February 21, 2013 at 9:45 am
Google recently released a new video showing what looking through its wearable computer, Google Glass, would be like. Unfortunately, the only exciting thing we've seen about the device, now seemingly called Glass, so far are the social activities showcased in the video — sky diving, playing with a boa, flying planes upside-down — and not the ways Glass was used in conjunction with them.

Pillow Law Label Requirements for Importers
by PUMP25, Window Shopper
- Created: August 23, 2013, 10:46 pm
Hello, I have a question regarding the required labels on pillows. If my company is importing pillows manufactured in China, is it the manufacturers responsibility to add the law labels and register a URN with the states I specify? I am not sure if they are familiar with this process. Or do I as the importer register for them in certain states, create the law label, and tell them to attach it? Thank you in advance of your help.

Rick Majerus: Small Act Went a Long Way for SLU Student
I was at the bar Humphrey's across the street from campus. He came in with a colleague, and on his way to finding a table a few people stopped him and said hello. What happened next I'll never forget. He made his way past my table, almost walked right past me, but then noticed me, turned his head, and said, "Hey, Jon."
It was a small gesture that I'm sure he forgot about the instant it happened. It doesn't seem like much, but it meant a lot to me. And for a man who was transitioning to a new university, with a thousand new names to learn, he somehow remembered my name.
Majerus had him at "Hey, Jon."
Maybe it was just because I might have been one of the first students Coach met at SLU. Or maybe it was just because that was the kind of life Majerus lived. Full of gestures, both small and big, that forever touched the people he met.
Its fitting that on the day he left us, I find myself Googling his name again, just as I did the day I first met him. As he might put it, it's just "the circle of life".
As the news of his death spread earlier this week, stories of all of Rick's gestures have been shared by former players, fellow coaches and reporters all across the country. I've made an effort to read every single one. You should too.
I only had a few more face to face run-ins with Coach throughout his time at SLU. I doubt he remembered my name much after that first week or so at SLU. I don't care. Like he taught me, names aren't important. It's about accepting the challenge of leaving this world a better place than how you found it. And if he touched me, the lowly sophomore who wandered into his press conference, then surely, this world is a far better place for all the lives Rick Majerus touched.
That's my Rick Majerus story, what's yours?

The guppy is a rare freshwater fish found in the river during the months of April through to November between 9am to 4pm. It tends to be rare during the month of April, but will become easier to find as the months go on. It sells for 1,300 Bells in Tom Nook's Store, which is equal to that of the goldfish and popeyed goldfish. Its shadow size is tiny in all games.
Donating to the Museum
As with all fish caught in Animal Crossing series, the guppy can be donated to the museum in each game by talking to Blathers, who will also give some information on it.
In Animal Crossing
Upon donation, Blathers the curator will say:
"Hoo hoo! Hullo, little fishy! Aren't we a tiny little fellow! Adorable! Why, I believe it stuck its tongue out at me! Hoo-rumph! Nevertheless, we'll take care of the little blighter! I'll keep an eye on this mischief-maker myself!"
In Wild World
Upon donation, Blathers the curator will say:
"Many don't know that the guppies with ornate tails are actually the males! Indeed, the females are quite dull...much like Celeste, always stargazing. I really wish she would pay attention to something else on occasion... Ah! I'm terribly sorry! That wasn't what we were talking about, was it?"
In City Folk
Upon donation, Blathers the curator will say:
"Male guppies are known for their colorful, bright ugly-like patterns... But look closer, and you'll see males share a design with their female peers... Indeed, a matching couple! It seems like the pairs are a little shy about their romance and tend to hide it. Simply adorable!
The guppy can be found in the small tank in the bottom-left of the aquarium, with other tiny fish in City Folk.
In New Leaf
In New Leaf, an information board in the aquarium will list information about this fish.
"Guppies are tropical fish that are related to killifish and live in warm rivers. They are popular fish that have been bred to have beautiful flowing tail fins. Mother guppies give birth to their babies after the eggs hatch in their bellies. They give birth at a rate that's nearly constant, so their population tends to grow rather quickly."
Encyclopedia Information
Animal Forest
| "Guppy"
Wild World
| ''They're a type of killifish, bred for observation. They are hardy and easy to raise."
City Folk
| ''A type of killifish, these were bred for viewing."
Size- About 1.6 inches
New Leaf
Further InformationThe guppy, also called the millionfish due to its rapid breeding, is one of the most popular freshwater aquarium fish species in the world. It is native to Barbados, Brazil, Guyana, Netherlands Antilles, Trinidad and Tobago, the US Virgin Islands and Venezuela.
The fish was discovered in 1866 in Trinidad by Robert John Lechmere Guppy, hence the name, and the latin name was originally put forward by Albert Günther as Girardinus guppii. However it had already been described under P. reticulata, and G. guppii has become a Junior synonym, but the common name still continues to dedicate its finder. Poeciliata is from "Poecile" referring to its small size, and reticulata comes from "Reticulate" referring to its vast network of patterns.
Guppies have 23 pairs of chromosomes which is equal to a human's.

Mississauga is close enough to Toronto that residents can enjoy frequent trips to the big city without the added costs of living there. Mississauga is largely influenced by the goings on of Toronto and as a GTA city it is more expensive than other parts of the country.

PS3 media streaming
So I've tried both PS3 Media Server and Nullriver MediaLink and they're both skipping when I play audio from Itunes. I'm not as concerned w/ Video but even the audio is skipping. I've tried moving the transcoder rate down but no luck. I'm running a Linksys WirelessG router. Does this make a difference? Thoughts?

Who Wants Even More Arrested Development?
Hey, look, we sometimes cover television too. Especially when the news as awesome as Arrested Development receiving even more episodes than we thought. Scott reported and responded in the only way appropriate: "I'm guessing you just blue yourself, because I did."
More TV coverage:
ABC's 'The Neighbors' Is No '3rd Rock From the Sun'
The Defiant Sentimentality of 'Parenthood'
Who Wants More Films by Hayao Miyazaki and Isao Takahata?
Apparently almost as many people want this as those wanting more Arrested Development. Studio Ghibli announced there will be new films from both Hayao Miyazaki and Isao Takahata next year. And Nathan reported: "This is kind of a throwback to when Miyazaki released My Neighbor Totoro and Takahata released Fireflies on the same day 25 years ago. Which was kind of a big day for animation."
Should Pixar Make Movies Faster?
While we're talking about animation, Brave director Mark Andrews recently stated that he thinks Pixar needs work faster and deliver more movies. Scott wrote on this story: "It will be interesting to see if Pixar is receptive to increasing their speed and especially intriguing to see if he can ultimately sell them on moving into PG-13 territory. At any rate, if they're able to maintain a high level of quality (if not outright perfection) wouldn't it be a gift to fans to see more of their work?"
Does Anna Karenina Deserve More Award Consideration?
In his latest Oscar column, Daniel made his case for why Anna Karenina ought to be receiving more recognition this awards season: "Anna Karenina is the best awards-ready movie of the year that isn't getting an ounce of awards attention. Frankly, I find it somewhat surprising. Joe Wright's three literary adaptations are the sort of thing that we all assume will dominate – every list of stereotypical "Oscar bait" includes the phrase "prestige adaptation." Yet it's almost as if we've now reached a point where even the Academy has classic literature fatigue."

When I began my hair journey I was looking for a leave in conditioner that would moisturize my tresses and I found Creme of Natures Lemongrass and Rosemary Leave in Creme Conditioner. I am always a sucker for the inclusion of rosemary in any hair product and the addition of lemongrass was an added treat. Lemongrass is often credited with giving hair a beautiful shine. Having these two special ingredients in one product got me so excited and I had really high expectations.
The consistency of this product is a little thicker than milk so it glides on easily. It is also one of several products from Creme of Nature that consists of certified organic ingredients. The Lemongrass and Rosemary leave in is specially formulated for dehydrated hair.
I used this leave for months and I think it is a pretty good product but using it daily was not an option for me because it would weigh down my hair. Does it detangle - yes, but if you are an "air dry girl" like I am, you may find that your hair will feel crunchy after leaving this product on your hair.
I have a few more bottles left at my home and they will remain in my reserve tank in case I run out of my staples and I need backup.
Oh and I can't forget to mention that the smell gets 4 out of 5 stars.
You can get this leave in conditioner for roughly $5.99 at your local beauty supply store.
If you have tried this leave in, please share your experience.

I used to shoot with my uncle who was into shotgun card matches where they punch those large holes in small cards at odd ranges. One of the match sites used one of those very same X-Ring Centrifugal Bullet Traps to collect their shot into 5 gallon pails set underneath the exist portal. Don't try it with shotguns! The wads and card material, along with the deformed shot would clog it up after a few sots and they would have to go out and unplug the device (hard to do quickly). It did a fine job of keeping the shot in a small area (6 circular feet around the bucket), because most of the shot did not go into the bucket without additional external guidance. The shot was piled deep enough to shovel it up into other buckets. I used that stuff for years making bullets until they shut down. Took a little longer to melt due to the extra oxidization on the shot, but it was FREE!
I got an e-mail with additional information. Evidently there were three sizes, 12x12, 18x18, and 24x24. The ad I posted earlier shows the smaller two, but not the third one. The smallest one was for placing on top of a table. Maybe it was not used in the basement. Maybe it was used in the dining room.
There was also reportedly an option to line the inside of the "pyramid" with another thickness of the same plate metal. That was for use with centerfire handguns. Doubt that it would take the .357 Magnum, but probably OK for anything else available at the time.
Turbo housings huh? Never thought of that. I work for a heavy truck manufacturer... might have to do some investigating and report back...

I need to send that article you linked to to my wife. Our basement is unfinished and since we are at the design phase maybe extra sound deadening panesl could be put in place.

May. Please feel free to comment on this poem. However, please remember, PoetrySoup is a place of encouragement and growth.
Read Poems by
Joseph May
Tangled vines slowly creep
upon the unsuspecting tree
As it leaps upon the trunk
It keeps the tree in a deadly embrace
Life, like the vine can entangle us in its web
Making us struggle to free ourselves
Or endure a slow demise as it strangles us
We can also become entangled in the web of love
Its tangled vine can break our hearts in two
Then we seek solace in the vine
Drowning our sorrows to get over the heartbreak
Perhaps it's a love divine we seek

Guide to New Student Orientation Division of Undergraduate Studies
Objectives of the New Student Orientation
Once you have completed the online Educational Planning Survey and the online placement tests in Math and Chemistry, the next component of NSO is a full day of academic advising. This advising portion of NSO assists new first-year students in evaluating their educational plans by providing them with a comprehensive program of individualized educational planning and academic advising prior to registering for Fall classes.
This program is the first stage of your academic advising, and it is designed to help you implement your educational plans.
When you participate in the New Student Orientation:
- You will be introduced to the academic structure of Penn State. This includes discussion of Penn State's colleges, types of programs offered by each college, and graduation requirements for a Penn State degree. You will become acquainted with the Hazleton campus, its policies and procedures, and some of its faculty and staff.
- You will meet with an adviser for individual educational planning. The adviser will discuss with you your educational plans and the characteristics of those academic programs in which you have expressed an interest. As a result of this meeting, your initial educational plans may be confirmed, or you may decide on an alternate educational plan.
- You will have the opportunity to plan a schedule of courses for your first semester at the University. You will also learn about other colleges within the University system that may be of interest to you.
Families may attend the New Student Orientation because NSO is an excellent time to receive valuable information about Penn State's policies and procedures.
We feel that the educational planning and academic advising you receive through this program will benefit you significantly in working toward your educational goals.
Description of Major Activities of the New Student Orientation
Introduction to the Program (Students and Families): The New Student Orientation — its objectives and its activities—will be discussed.
Presenting the University to First-Year Students (Students and Families): A presentation will outline the academic structure of the University and provide an overview of the academic experience at Penn State.
Individual Educational Planning Interview (Students): A NSO adviser will discuss the student's test results and help the student evaluate his/her educational plans, curricular goals, and other issues related to the academic experience at Penn State
University Experience (Students and families): During this meeting, students will learn of the educational mission of the University, discuss the nature of the transition from high school to college, and discuss the opportunities available in a diverse academic community.
Academic Advising Interview (Students): Academic advisers will assist students in course selection for their first semester of enrollment.
What should I do if I have special needs?
The Pennsylvania State University encourages qualified persons with disabilities to participate in its programs and activities. If you anticipate needing any type of accommodation or have questions about the physical access provided, please contact the NSO office at 570-450-3194 at least two weeks before your participation and call Jacqueline Walters at Hazleton 570-450- 3005 to make her aware of your situation.
Penn State is committed to affirmative action, equal opportunity, and the diversity of its workforce.

Well, it looks like my ad blocker wiped out the whole log-in/log out information. Who would have guessed that someone would make lock in information look like an advertisement.
At least now I know how to get the sign out panel back when I need it. BTW, has anyone given any thought to just fixing that glitch?
Perhaps then you should hire a new survey firm. The one doing the survey that lead to this layout took your money and gave you a shoddy product in return.
Can we please have a 'sign out' link like is just under this comment box somewhere on the forum pages? There continues to be a glitch in the software that randomly won't let people post until they have signed out and then back in.
At this point, it appears this is the only place that sign out link still exists.
Ms. Heptinstall,
It is too bad that Advancednet placed you the position of having to wither the ire of the users from this 'upgrade'. Hopefully others will understand that you are only the local name for a product that, I'm guessing, you had nothing to with creating.
Therefore I address you hoping you will find the real culprit and share my feelings with him/her about the new forum changes.
First, the positive.
It does look more 'grown up' than the old format. It should be easier to market and I understand that marketing is what makes the forums available to us.
Now the negative.
It doesn't appear that users were consulted at all about things that would make things easier for us. I think perhaps those involved might even wonder why they should be concerned about making things easier for us. The answer is that -we- provide the copy that -you- are selling to the advertisers. We do it at no charge to the organization. In return for providing you free copy to peddle to advertisers, it would seem that it isn't unreasonable to expect the organization to make life on the forums as easy as possible.
This new format doesn't allow me to resize the windows that are important to me. I would like to do that so -I- can decide how many topic headings I would like to see at one time and how much space to allocate to messages.
The new format uses color options that are, quite frankly, less than useful. The ability to choose at least a limited number of colors that can accommodate people with varying degrees of color blindness would be nice. Perhaps even the option to use bold for unread and regular for read would be preferable than the color scheme currently in place.
Having the option to change font sizes would be a minimum consideration. One size does not fit all. People have varying sized monitors and varying visual acuity. Being able to easily adjust the sizing would clearly be a benefit for many.
In addition, some people prefer being able use the font of their choosing. Frankly, the font that is chosen is much too skimpy on fullness. We have no need to conserve ink on the forum, so a full bodied font would be helpful. Being able to choose our own font would be even better.
There doesn't seem to have been any consideration in resolving bugs that exist in the forum software. Because Advancednet discourages feedback, I'm not even sure the designers are aware there are bugs in the software.
Two of the most troublesome bugs are the one that will log you out of the forum but not the paper. Then you cannot log into the forum unless you log out of the paper. Those who don't know about the bug become frustrated and quit writing copy for you.
The other is the bug that seems to be a timer on the response window. If one takes too long to compose a response, the window reverts away from a response to a post and becomes a new thread window. Many people have struggled with that problem.
Again, it IS free copy. Fixing the bugs doesn't seem to be an out-of-line request in return for free copy.
Thanks for the consideration in these matters. Perhaps if Advancenet would open a forum designed just for feedback and requests for improvements, then when an upgrade occurs we would be happy to see a more refined look and feel if we knew that underneath the hood some our concerns have also be addressed because the designers were aware of the problems.

Then, in closing, I will describe some of my concerns about health care reform as it is envisioned under Clinton's proposal. While the reform plan does not specifically deal with vulnerable populations at this time, there are important issues on the table for public policymakers as they grapple with alternative approaches. It is my hope that through such discussion we can avoid some serious pitfalls that could reverse the improvements to date in how we deliver health care to vulnerable populations.
The Philadelphia HealthPASS Program, for those of you who are not aware of it, is an 82,000-member health insuring organization that is exempt through grandfather clause from the federal 75/25 rule. * HealthPASS serves Medicaid recipients only. HealthPASS has had a controversial history, mostly because it was one of the pioneers in the early eighties, taking aggressive action to move Medicaid recipients out of the traditional fee-for-service Medicaid system into a managed care environment. Many political and operational mistakes were made in the early eighties. However, today I consider the HealthPASS Program to be one of this nation's state-of-the-art programs.
HealthPASS is a mandatory Medicaid managed care program in south and west Philadelphia. Traditional fee-for-service does not exist for Medicaid patients in the HealthPASS demonstration area. There are approximately 110,000 Medicaid recipients in the demonstration area, and there are three health plan options that a Medicaid recipient can choose: two commercial HMOs and the HealthPASS Program, which is a state-owned program managed by a private contractor.
The HealthPASS Program is also the default HMO, meaning that if a Medicaid recipient does not voluntarily choose one of the two HMOs, they are automatically placed into the HealthPASS Program. The private contractor for the HealthPASS Program (which was Healthcare Management Alternatives or HMA when I was there) is at full risk.
