Interesting Grow Op in Kelowna
The paper reports another grow op busted in Kelowna. They said it was in the 2100 block of Diamond Road. Isn't that near Shane Bunting's house? Shane lives at 2145 Diamond Road. Maybe it was across the street?
Glad to hear he's over his three year Oxycontin addiction but Viagra? I don't even wanna know. I guess the only swollen member he really has is his head because without the Viagra he's just another limp dick. His new album doesn't show much signs of recovery though. Here's some of the lyrics to the song "Warrior"
Bragging about having sex with hookers without condoms. That's called aids. Is that what the Viagra was for? I didn't realize he needed that like his older friends in the club. He told that bitch on X that's not his baby and runs from her like she's got rabies. Giving someone E, knocking them up, then denying it. Isn't that noble.
Stealing your drugs and trying them? Mixing coke and Oxycontin just for something to do? That's pretty messed up. The last reference to turning someone into a paraplegic, is that a reference to Dustin Lafortune?
Either way, it all looks pretty messed up to me.The only thing right about the X men reference was the mutant part. Shane sounds more like Mr. Sinister to me. He's no warrior, he's the violator. Those skeletor masks really look dumb. Word.
Update: OK the Kelowna RCMP claim that grow op was a different house. The grow op wasn't in Shane Bunting's house just on the same street in the same 100 block. However, that doesn't change the fact that Shane Bunting has a close association with Hells Angel Damiano Dipopolo and co owns(ed) several real estate properties with him and brags about his former oxy addiction in his music like it was somehow a good thing.

This is a solid, high quality back pack. It's long and not very deep, perfect for a laptop or tablet and a couple small items. I used it for a year but needed something deeper so I got a rear rack and bag for my DRZ400SM.Read All Reviews

As the first reviewer noted, this is not gear bag size, it is duffle bag size. High quality construction, nice features. One end, ventilated for shoes has more of a "bag" than a wall between the shoe compartment and main compartment, this means you can stack two pair of shoes (or whatever) in there and zip them shut but it takes away from the interior compartment, no big deal. I actually fit my Fly Carbon F2 in there just for grins, it took up about 1/2 the whole bag though. The other end is a more conventional end section, good sized though, and the outside zippered accessory compartment runs pretty much the whole side length with 4 shallow mesh pockets inside. On the other side exterior is a mesh pocket you can stick a smaller water bottle into, or anything else to have it handy on the outside. Nice carry straps for both hands and shoulder.Read All Reviews

NM Budget Update
By KRWG News
New Mexico – Lawmakers in recession-wracked New Mexico who are trying to wrap up a special legislative session gave final approval to several deficit reduction bills and moved closer to deciding how much to cut schools and state agencies.
They're trying to fill a $650 million hole in this year's $5.5 billion state budget.
The House late Thursday voted 37-31 for a bill that cuts $257 million from state agencies and public schools and colleges. The cuts ranged from 2 percent to 7.6 percent.
However, the measure softens the blow to public schools by using other revenue, including federal stimulus funds, to replace state money.

The story of how Bicycles for Humanity Colorado got started and what we are trying to do to help out in Namibia Africa
The Bicycles for Humanity Colorado Story:
Bicycles for Humanity – Colorado was formed by
Josh Pace, Rodd Granger, and Keenan Gates
in September of 2007 to begin to form a bridge of community sharing between the front range of Colorado and healthcare workers serving those in need in Africa. We were inspired by the ability to marry personal interests and the desire to help those most marginalized in society.
A bicycle, one of the simplest transport technologies, is affordable and can be maintained anywhere in the world with minimal tools and spare parts. Yet for the world's poorest people, living on $1 per day, even bicycles are beyond their reach. Meanwhile, in the western world we discard thousands of bicycles each year.
The math becomes simple and in the hands of a healthcare worker, they can cover four times the ground than otherwise on foot. This translates into four times the number of patient visits and four times the number of medication disbursements. The possibilities are endless and we can help fulfill a basic need: to provide a distribution vehicle for improved healthcare for those too remote from formalized healthcare facilities.
Our mission is simple: to change the world two wheels at a time.

Figure: Google searches for the term "green infrastructure," 2004-present. Interest in "green infrastructure" measured by weekly Google searches (black line is average trend). The number 100 represents the peak search interest. What could make such search interest in "green infrastructure" increase? And would such an increase translate into more widespread use of nature-based solutions, like storm protection from coastal marshes?

Strip T's increasing funkiness
Well now the secret is *really* out, the place was reviewed in the Cheap Eats column of the Globe, at http://www.bostonglobe.com/lifestyle/...
Nov 09, 2011luvsummer in Greater Boston Area
Strip T's increasing funkiness
We've been fans of strip-T's for a long time but hadn't been in a while, so were caught by surprise by the new menu. Surprised, and blown away. What a gem! I had the grilled octupus, which was fantastic, tender and flavorful. My partner had a special, the central American tripe stew. We split a small plate app, pumpkin toast with quanciale, and a small caesar salad. The cheese toast was the least successful, the very chewy quanciale made it tough to either cut or eat as finger food. But everything was delicious and the menu had so many intriguing items that we wanted to try. The attention to detail was amazing, from the very finely julienned apple strips on the stew, the beautiful fennel fronds on the octopus, the artistically arranged plates, it all felt like a much more expensive restaurant but still in the funky neighborhood joint. We'll definitely be back and not wait so long this time.
Oct 01, 2011luvsummer in Greater Boston Area
I have a big oval casserole that I've had for many, many years. It has a fine crack on the inside which doesn't seem to be enlarging, though it does make me nervous.
The DeLonghi DCF210TTC gets about 3.5 stars out of 5 on Amazon, the best rating of their front loaders.
Safe, easy gas stove/oven for elderly parents
Are you sure you want a gas stove? I'd be nervous about sleeves catching in the flames, or them forgetting to turn them off.
I'd be inclined to use a combination of microwave and maybe an induction burner. If they make tea you can get electric kettles that automatically shut off if they boil dry. If they do more extensive cooking, perhaps an electric flat-top stove. We have a flat-top cooktop and a separate electric wall oven. The stovetop knobs are all front and center, and I put bright orange electrical tape on them to make it easier for my low vision SO to use. An induction cooktop might also be nice, although they're pricey.
Searching for Le Creuset Eggplant Cassarole 2.5 qrt
There's a ceramic one, I think, on a Virginia Craig's list. It's got an old date but still looks like an active listing: http://lynchburg.craigslist.org/hsh/2... I like the cast iron one that does appear occasionally on eBay, but can't justify the price.
I have bought some inexpensive cast iron veggies over the years that I like just as much, from QVC and other places.
You may also want to scan sites like Craig's List to look for a second-hand Weber. If they're taken care of they can last a long time.
Where do you put your cutting board?
Mine are on the counter leaning against the wall a couple of feet from the sink. I was wandering Bed, Bath, and Beyond once and found a stainless steel compact dish strainer, about 6" wide, that was on the clearance rack because the cutlery holder was missing. It's perfect for cutting boards because, while I towel them briefly after I wash them, there may still be a little dripping and the drainer lets air circulate.
Mother's Day gift - rec for vintage percolator
I'd go for the 1st one, since she wants 12 cups and it's clearly made in the Bronx. The 3rd one probably is too, given the bubble top. That seller is correct that the broken stem probably makes no difference--the stem of my 8 cup has a similar fault and it doesn't seem to make any difference. The 1st one starts out cheaper, but who knows what will happen by the end of the auction.
Mother's Day gift - rec for vintage percolator
The classic Farberware percolator, especially if you can find an old one made in New York, instead of China, would be a good choice. They come in 4, 8, or 12 cup models. So many were sold that they're pretty commonly seen at tag sales, thrift shops, etc.
Discolored AC LTD saucepan safe to cook in? Pls advice....
One of our favorite pots is a 4 qt. AC saucepan that someone rescued, believe it or not, from a dumpster. Most of the anodized coating was scraped off and we just used steel wool to complete the process, so now it looks like a somewhat-scuffed MC2 pot. It holds a simmer beautifully on our electric stove, something that's difficult to achieve with many pots. The dumpster diving didn't result in a matching lid, so we've been using an 8" cake pan with a knob screwed on for a lid--not pretty, but it seems to work.
I'm starting my 3rd summer with a Weber gas grill with east-west grates. It's a nice quality grill and I've learned to use it, but do honestly think that north-south burners make MUCH more sense if you do much indirect cooking. Though I haven't seen them in person, it sounds like the redesigned Genesis is a great idea, and having two side tables instead of one is just icing on the cake.
Mine came with stainless grates. I've thought about getting cast iron but haven't bitten yet. I do have a cast iron "grilling platter" (http://www.amazon.com/Cuisinart-Pre-S...), found much cheaper at a warehouse store, if I want something that will really hold the heat. But the Weber preheats to over 500 deg. in about 10 minutes, so it's plenty hot.
I just bought some new mitts at TJ Maxx. they're silicone outside and quilted fabric insider, and they come up quite high on the hands. They're not perfect: a little big in the hands for me and a bit awkward, but they're certainly protective. I've been making no-knead bread so handling heavy iron pots in a 450 degree oven, so they come in handy. The nice thing about silicone is that they're washable.
Preparing Foods w/Arthritic Hands
We've also lately become a big fan of those pre-prepped green beans, either from BJ's or Trader Joe's. They're trimmed, washed, all we have to do is dump them in a pan. Baby spinach comes that way too, and some of it you can even microwave in the pan. It's more expensive, but the grocery stores have more and more in the way of cut-up fruits and veggies. If it means a night free of pain, it's worth the upcharge. If you already belong to Costco, check out their other options. We go to BJ's and buy trimmed broccoli florets, big bags of mixed lettuce spring mix, the green beans; I'm sure Costco has similar offerings. Trader Joe often has such things but in sizes more practical for smaller households. Think of it as healthy fast food.
My mother had bad arthritis in her hands, and I suspect it's in my future as well. She often wore gloves around the house since keeping her hands warm really helped. Cold really affected her; she watched me pull the giblets out of a still partially frozen turkey once and really squirmed imagining that cold. Make sure you let the tap water run long enough to get warm before you wash your hands or the dishes.
I worked with a woman who found that wearing sturdy rubber gloves seemed to give her hands more strength, especially when doing things like vacuuming. I'm not sure why, but she swore by it. Worth a try!
Preparing Foods w/Arthritic Hands
One of my cousins invented and trued, unsuccessfully, to market a similar gadget. It was a smallish cutting board, maybe 8 x 11, and a companion serrated knife with a slot near the tip that fit into a pin in the cutting board, holding the tip of the knife in place. The whole thing did operate similar to an office paper slicer, but you could take it apart easily for washing.
It was a great idea, but to keep it at an infomercial price point the quality just wasn't there. I use it a couple of times a year for scoring an "X"into chestnuts, it's perfect for that. And I suppose it might be useful for those with hand problems. It would be nice if it was made of better quality materials.
The cousin has a lot of them still in the garage, I can ask him if he'd consider selling them on eBay or something if people here think there'd be interest.
I was in TJ Maxx/Homegoods yesterday and saw a yellow 5 qt. dutch oven for $40 in the Staub Elite line. There was only one, so I bought it, figuring if I didn't then it probably wouldn't be left if I decided later that I wanted it. I'm still dithering. I have a 5 qt. Martha Stewart which has been fine for the couple of months I've owned it, but it's VERY heavy, heavier than my 7 qt. LC. My thinking was perhaps to keep the Staub and give the Martha Stewart to a strong young male relative. The Staub is thinner walled, similar to a LC, making it much lighter, although oddly the lid is actually heavier than the pot. The enamel is on the thin side, with a layer of gray iron peeking through at the bottom edge, and a couple of tiny pinholes elsewhere. On the other hand the lid fits much better than on my LC and it's got a neat feature where the handle on the lid fits into the pot handle so you can park the lid while stirring the contents. It is evidently a budget line of Staub, still made in France, that was sold by QVC--their description is still on line, although it's no longer in stock. Reviews gave it 4 stars out of 5, although there are enough negative reviews to give me pause.
At this point I'm likely to return it, but am wondering if there's any other wisdom out there about it.
Recipe booklets that come with cookware
It depends on the appliance. Crockpot, yes; pressure cooker, yes; my first microwave in the early 80's, yes (it had a hollandaise recipe that actually worked pretty well, though I've probably lost it).
News flash, good ol' google--I found that recipe! http://www.cyber-kitchen.com/ubbs/arc...
A new enameled cast iron post (bought on eBay, originally from QVC) came with a recipe booklet and on a whim I tried one of them, a Spanish rice and chicken. It wasn't bad, though kind of 70's-ish. My mother-in-law evidently used to make something very similar years ago.
Should I upgrade to LeCreuset or All-Clad Stainless?
I'm not sure that's any bargain nowadays. The Calphalon pots from 25 years ago were MUCH heavier and thicker than the ones sold today, from what I've seen. Even with the anodizing worn off, an old one might be preferable.
Should I upgrade to LeCreuset or All-Clad Stainless?
Great choice on the dutch oven, and I'm jealous of your brasier! I can't really justify that piece but just lust after it.
For future purchases: my own preference would be to get a stainless pot in your 3-4 qt. size, since I'd want to avoid the weight of cast iron for something that you're likely lifting pretty frequently. Unless your pockets are fairly deep I don't know if I'd bother with All-Clad for something used to heat rice, soup, vegetables, and pasta. You won't go wrong with All-Clad, but it may be overkill--though that said, my spouse loves our 4 qt. saucepan in All-Clad's brushed aluminum exterior. If price *is* an issue, maybe consider another brand's clad cookware like Tramontina. For pasta, my family either uses a relatively inexpensive 6 qt. stainless pot with a disc bottom, or an 8 or 10 qt. stainless pot with colander insert that we got for about $30 at a warehouse store. It's been great. I don't see the need for expensive cladding for a pot to boil water, though on my smooth-top electric stove I do really need a very flat bottom, which the disc bottom provides. I feel the same way about roasting pans--if you're using dry heat for a piece of meat on a rack, why buy expensive cladding? I *can* see getting something heavy and durable, since I warped my 9 x 13 stainless pan by heating it on a burner to make gravy after a roast was out of the oven, but I personally wouldn't buy a $200 All-Clad. I'm also of the school that buys a new non-stick frying pan every few years, sticking with something inexpensive. Obviously you'll find very different opinions here, it will be interesting to see the advice you get.
Newspaper columnist's rant against foodie culture
I have to admit, this gave me a good chuckle:
Mar 15, 2011luvsummer in Food Media & News
Stainless Steel Skillet with Thickest Aluminum Disk/Base
I have a Sitram Profisserie large saute pan and its aluminum disk is about 1/4" thick. The pan flares out a bit beyond the disk, which I know bothers some people, but we have really enjoyed the pan for a number of years now and probably use it 3-4 times a week. It cleans up very well. Ours has a helper handle, which they may not make any more since I didn't see it on line.
Le Creuset 3 1/2 qt low oval @ Amazon for $97.75
I ordered this, too, when Blondelle posted it. Then a couple of weeks later I was in Marshall's and bought a 2.75 qt. regular oval for a little cheaper, so I canceled the Amazon order. I was a little sorry later I did, since the 2.75 qt. may be a little small. So far I've just used it for no-knead bread, it's a nice size to do an elongated loaf. If I were you I'd contact Amazon and complain that the item isn't as described, see if you can convince them to send you the stainless knob.
Malcolm Gladwell wrote a fascinating piece about the rotisserie and other gadgets by Ron Popeil. It's at http://www.gladwell.com/2000/2000_10_....
Griswold Skillets--Values vs. Prices?
I wish I'd had that advice when I bought an otherwise good shape Griswold a few years ago. It turned out to be warped to the point where it spun on my smooth-top electric stove, which needs an absolutely flat-bottomed pan. I gave it to a relative who has a gas stove, figuring that could handle a slightly warped pan better.
Throwdown: Toaster Oven vs. Microwave
I only had a toaster oven for a few years a long time ago and haven't missed its absence. But when our microwave broke we went out in a snowstorm to replace it! Sure I could live without it, but it's awfully convenient for a lot of things, mostly mentioned below. Add to that heating a damp towel or a buckwheat-filled pillow for a compress and cooking veggies, especially asparagus. Many mornings I make a single egg in a teacup in the microwave, the perfect size for an English muffin sandwich in 53 seconds.
After reading the CI article about toaster ovens I thought I'd try the Breville IF I had the counter space--which I don't--plus the $250 price tag made me wince. We keep a toaster for toast, which gets done MUCH faster than in the toaster oven at work.
Dessert_diva, how do you make the 3 minute potato chips?
Cookware for cooking meat for a crowd?
I grew up in a family of 7 and my mother did a lot of her cooking on an electric skillet. They don't seem as popular as they used to, but would probably be good for your purposes.
Beautiful new coffee grinder woes...
I've had a Capresso burr grinder for about a year. When I first had it I don't remember it having static problems. In fact, when I read about static problems with other grinders I thought I was lucky. But then, for some reason, the Capresso developed them. When I read your post I thought perhaps I'd bought it in warmer weather and the problem got worse with dry indoor heated air, but when I looked back I see that I bought it in February. So I have no idea. I'll double check later, but I think it does have a 3-prong plug. The static makes it require more cleaning, and I found recently that it wouldn't grind, probably because of too much buildup. I had also been storing it in a base cabinet near my dishwasher, and I wonder if the humidity was getting to the less-than-clean mechanicals and gumming things up.
There are a bunch of used ones on eBay. Lots in purple!
I'm curious about hotly marketed gadgets of yore, the things that were EVERYWHERE--until they weren't, or at least until they turn up at yard sales. One I never tried, but was always skeptical about, was that miracle defroster that was supposed to defrost food quickly. What ever happened to that, and did it really work?
Mine are pink, thank you very much! See http://www.amazon.com/RSVP-Internatio...
I buy rubber gloves, but can't seem to remember to use them--and my hands show it. I *did* just buy some pinkish-red silicone potholders.

Patrolman First Class Brooks Barlow, 31, of Moncks Corner is a local boy. He grew up in Moncks Corner graduating from St. John's Christian first and then Trident Technical College with a degree in criminal justice.
From 2005 to 2011 he worked as a detention officer for both Berkeley and Dorchester counties.
But it wasn't a direct path. He began at Trident in an aircraft maintenance program. But a psychology professor indirectly changed the course of his life.
"We had to write this paper on 'doing something in the community,'" he says. "So I sat in a nursing home and read a couple of books to an elderly man and though 'policing is community' so I changed my paper and did it on law enforcement's involvement in the community."
To do this, he rode with the St. Stephen Police Department, Moncks Corner PD and North Charleston PD.
"I decided, 'I really like this,'" he says.
St. Stephen was really slow, [calls] he continues, and Moncks Corner was a bit more active and North Charleston….one after another!"
So he changed to criminal justice and, when finished, went through the Berkeley County Sheriff's Office reserve program and then applied for a job.
He was offered a position in the jail and told that after a year he could move into a deputy's job.
However, after a year that didn't happen so he left Berkeley County and went to work for Dorchester where, because he was already a certified detention officer, he worked the prisoner transport team for two years. While with DCSO he served on the Honor Guard and with the Dive Team – Underwater Rescue and Recovery.
Still wanting real police work, he left DCSO and went to the St. Stephen PD, became police certified and, in a year, earned the rank of corporal.
He then came to SPD. A certified diver, he is also trained in SFST – field sobriety; Advanced DUI; Drug Interdiction; Radar; EVOCII driving course and as an Underwater Criminal Investigator.
The UCI enables him to set up an underwater crime scene and use body bags underwater to recover a body. He also has his IPMB certification qualifying him for the Bike Team. He uses his bike to patrol neighborhoods and the bike trail.
"I consider myself relatively new to law enforcement," he says, "but further on I might like to try for detective. But I want to learn all I can on patrol before I do that."
"Patrol is the best of law enforcement," he says, "there is a lot of community policing and helping people. Also traffic, which I hate.
"The worst 90 seconds of someone's life is a normal day for us."
Barlow agrees with his colleagues that an injured child is the worst. "Some things you see out there…it really bothers you."
But helping people is the best.
"I had a lady a few months ago – an elderly woman who had lost some jewelry and I filled out a report for her. She came in to the station to compliment me and told them 'I really listened.'"
When he is not helping people (or making those hated traffic stops) he spends his time with his family. He and his wife Jenna are parents to Anjali, 12; Alexa, 3 and Charlotte, 2.
Everything he does is with the family he says. He loves college football and is a Gamecock fan because his dad is an alumnus. "My dad comes over on Saturdays to watch the game with me.
He is active in his church and, in the past, has played baseball and basketball.
"I used to hunt wild turkey, but I have no time to do that anymore," he says.
He doesn't fish, he says, because he can't sit still long enough.
"I love cooking," he says, "I think I am good at it…no one complains!"
He reads the paper regularly both in print and online, and, recently, has begun going to the gym with his wife.
"I do weight lifting," he says, "we go to the gym together. She started then talked me into it and I really enjoy it."
"I would like to go back to college and get a degree in accounting," he says, noting his dad is an accountant, "so when I retire from policing I can have an accounting career."
This, he says with a grin, will pay for the kids college.

Natural gas gains use by TVA as generation source
The Tennessee Valley Authority's reliance on coal has dropped and the use of natural gas as fuel to generate electricity has increased.
According to The Commercial Appeal (http://bit.ly/UyxYvG), TVA's use of gas climbed 70 percent in the fiscal year just ended. At the same time, coal-fired generation declined 30 percent from fiscal 2011. The fiscal years end Sept. 30.
"What we're trying to achieve, from a corporate standpoint, is a good, diverse mix of energy sources that we can adjust as the market forces change," said Bob Dalrymple, vice president of gas operations for TVA.
Dalrymple said current cost for coal and gas is reasonably competitive with one another.
The greater use of gas by TVA mirrors a national trend as hydraulic fracturing in drilling releases abundant sources of the fuel.
TVA has been building and buying natural gas-fired plants and the resulting change has been remarkable. Gas fueled the generation of about one-fifth of TVA's electricity generation in fiscal 2012. That was up from less than 1 percent in 2007, agency officials said.
The use of gas is likely to accelerate further. TVA has announced it will retire 18 of its 59 coal-fired units by 2012.
The utility last week dedicated the new John Sevier Combined Cycle plant near Rogersville, Tenn., and is considering construction of gas-fired generation at the Allen Fossil Plant in Memphis.
The Rogersville plant can produce 880-megawatts - enough power for about 500,000 homes. It went on line in April.
Among other gas plants built, bought or leased by TVA are units in Southaven, Miss., and near Brownsville, Tenn.
Nuclear generation also is a major player, accounting for one-third of the power produced by TVA. Hydroelectric generation and that from solar, landfill gases and other renewable sources fill in the menu of generation sources behind nuclear, coal and gas.
There are environmental advantages, too.
"We're very happy to see them (TVA) retire coal plants and reduce their greenhouse emissions," said John D. Wilson, research director for the Knoxville-based Southern Alliance for Clean Energy.
Wilson noted gas-fired plants better lend themselves to conservation because they are easier to shut down than coal units when their output isn't needed. However, he said gas is subject to greater price volatility than coal is.
Coal industry leaders are also quick to point to price swings in gas and underscore that nearly 30 percent of the world's known coal reserves are in the U.S.
"It's the most affordable energy resource over the long term," said Carol Raulston, senior vice president of communications for the National Mining Association.

1 (10.75 ounce) can
cream of chicken soup
1 pint

1 (4 ounce) can

This recipe is very similar to my own Sour Cream Chicken Enchiladas. The only difference is that mine has chopped olives and green onions. I also use soft white corn tortillas. For my family we prefer our original dish even though this recipe is good. This had great flavor and the crunch of the chips are a pleasant change and added a great corn flavor, however, the chips were almost stale tasting and hard to chew after baking. Overall, this meal was a good change for my family and I am sure that someone else would prefer this version over mine so I would strongly recommend everyone to try this recipe.
This recipe was good, but a little dry. I used about 12 ounces of chips and I boiled the chicken breast (then cubed it). I also added some green onions. I cooked it in the oven for about 25 minutes. I will make it again, but maybe next time I will try adding some chicken broth.

These enchiladas come together in a New York minute with the help of, what I used, was a roasted chicken from the deli. And the fact that it also uses tortilla chips is a bonus that I have been doing for Years! I mean who doesn't have an open bag of chips that are quickly sliding toward the trash can? Why not repurpose them before pitching them? And if you have leftover chicken, this casserole is a dream for cleaning out that fridge! The only thing that would make this better is having a fried egg on top of each serving!!

"Tiny Prints has provided great customer service and consistent phenomenal quality whenever we order our family invitations or cards. I continue to use this company for all my stationary needs again and again!"
"As always, the customer service and timeliness from Tiny Prints was excellent. I have been a repeat customer for nearly five years and this card has received the most compliments by far. Love this design, the graphic online does not do it justice!"
"From customizing, to ordering to receipt of product, this was a great experience. Customer service happily helped me with an order issue and the final product was such exceptional quality that I was proud to send them to my friends and family. Will place orders again in the future."
"Our image was formatted to fit before placing it into the template. Photo was taken on an iPhone and the printed lazer print cards were PERFECT! so unusual unlike any of our friends cards and lovely because of its one sided/postcard like style allowed me to write a little personal message on the back! If you purchase this you will not be disappointed!"
"I personalized the card with my almost three year old grandson's photo of him playing in the snow. I inserted the year versus adding names and just signed the back of the card. The paper and printing were of good quality and met my expectations. I love the way it came out. It's a great idea for a holiday card that loved ones will enjoy. The card was larger than I expected. Perhaps it could be scaled down a bit."

20 Questions With... David Farley
Editorial Staff • West End • 9 Apr 2007
Southwark's 150-seat Menier Chocolate Factory is very much the Off-West End venue of the moment, with – amongst many other achievements in its three-year history – three West End transfers, five Laurence Olivier Awards, three Whatsonstage.com Awards and an Evening Standard Award for Outstanding Newcomer to its name (See "Hot Chocolate: The Rise of the Menier", Features, 2 Apr 2007). And the venue owes much of its reputation for ambitious sets to David Farley, who has designed four acclaimed productions at the venue to date.
Most notably, Farley teamed up with Timothy Bird to create the multi award-winning design of the Menier revival of Sondheim's Sunday in the Park with George, which last year transferred to the West End following its Southwark run and next year transfers to Broadway (opening at Studio 54 in January 2008). Amongst its myriad accolades, the production nabbed Farley and Bird Best Design prizes at the Critics' Circle, Evening Standard and Laurence Olivier Awards, as well as a nomination in the Whatsonstage.com Theatregoers' Choice Awards.
Farley's other Menier productions, all musicals, have been the UK premieres of Jonathan Larsen's Tick Tick Boom! and Jason Robert Brown's The Last Five Years and the revival of Little Shop of Horrors, which transferred to the West End's Duke of York's Theatre last month. For Alan Menken and Howard Ashman's sci-fi spoof, Farley broke with tradition by creating a new design for Audrey II, the Shop's man-eating plant.
Outside the Menier, Farley's credits, many of them at Sheffield Theatres, have included The Laramie Project, Frankie and Johnny, The Lemon Princess, Zero Degrees and Drifting, Quartermaine's Terms, Dealer's Choice, The Seagull, Sexual Perversity in Chicago, The Shawl, Observe the Sons of Ulster Marching Towards the Somme and Macbeth.
Date & place of birth
Born 25 January 1977 in Gloucester.
Lives now in
Newington Green, north London.
BA Degree in Theatre Design from Wimbledon School of Art and a BTEC Foundation Studies in Art and Design from the Oxfordshire School of Art and Design.
First big break
My first big break was designing a David Mamet double bill of Sexual Perversity in Chicago and The Shawl, which was on Sheffield Crucible's main stage, directed by Angus Jackson. Michael Grandage put Angus and I together. Until then, I'd been designing fringe productions, small shows. This was my first proper experience of working in a theatre where I wasn't going to have to build the entire set myself.
Career highlights
I wasn't entirely sure about doing my first job at the Chocolate Factory - thank goodness I did! Working with Timothy Bird and Sam Buntrock in that partnership there has been a definite highlight. One of the great things that's come from Sunday in the Park with George is the recognition with the design that the two things - the projection (care of Bird) and the set - are utterly integrated. That was something we strived for from the very beginning. We thought there should never be any separation from the real characters on stage and the animated projected characters. Achieving that collision between the real and virtual worlds was fantastic. It's amazing getting so much recognition for Sunday. The Olivier is the award you dream of winning – I hoped I might get there when I was 50 or so. To win now, having just turned 30, is scary. Awards open doors and make people take you more seriously. Producers who wouldn't think of me for a job before are now very interested. I haven't changed, I still do what I do.
Favourite productions
Someone to Watch Over Me, one of my student shows which I did with the director Mark Rosenblatt at Oxford, was a beautiful beautiful piece. And Sunday, of course, was incredibly rewarding. It was Sam Buntrock's baby. He had this vision of using a combination of computer-generated animation, video projection and live actors, and he decided, somehow, we were going to do it. It was incredibly exciting. I'd never seen the show in the flesh before but knowing the way it's done opened up the possibilities. I had a real epiphany with it. I remember thinking, okay, if I pull the stops out, work every hour I can (I was often at the theatre from six in the morning till two at night) and make this the best we possibly can, maybe… and then in the last stages seeing it really come together. Those are very much the moments that make it all worthwhile, when you realise, everything's possible.
Favourite actors
I'm very bad at remembering names, but I can tell you that generosity makes a massive difference. Generous actors who try and make the design work are the ones you want to work with – you really notice that, particularly when you're on small budgets. You can always tell in a costume fitting. An actor or actress will either try and make what you're doing look as good as they can or they won't bother.
Favourite directors
I loved working with Angus Jackson, he's an incredibly intelligent director. James Phillips is brilliantly challenging. What I want from a director is someone who's going to challenge you. I'm doing Sweeney Todd at the moment for the Gate in Dublin and I'm working with Selina Cartmell. She's constantly questioning things, which is great. An openness with ideas is very important as well. I enjoy a collaborative approach.
Which other designers do you most admire?
Christopher Oram and Peter McKintosh are my two gay dads! I've assisted both of them and learned so much from them. I also admire the work of Robert Jones, Bunny Christie and Hildegard Bechtler.
What's the first thing you saw on stage that you really enjoyed?
The piece that made me decide I wanted to be involved in theatre was a David Glass production of Gormenghast at the Oxford Playhouse when I was about 15. The beautiful imagery of this abstract piece of physical theatre and raw storytelling - after only ever having seeing panto and straight dramas before - was so refreshing and magical. It was like, wow, I want to do that!
What might you have done professionally if you hadn't become involved in theatre?
I wanted to be an architect until I found out it was a seven-year degree course. Then I realised, if I did theatre design, I could use all the same skills - I love the act of technical drawing, I love model-making and knowing how things work – and they could go into building things on stage for a short amount of time. Then they go in the skip and you get to do it all again. Perfect! And you don't have to worry about planning laws!
Favourite book
Written on the Body by Jeanette Winterson. It's a beautiful, poetic, visual piece of writing which I've read over and over again.
Favourite holiday destination
I desperately want to go to Cuba before Castro pops his clogs. I'm scared of it changing and I'd love to see it as it is.
If you could swap places with someone (living or dead) for a day, who would it be?
Wow. I have absolutely no idea. I would love to have been around in the Thirties. I don't know why. But someone in the Thirties would do.
Why did you want to get involved in this production of Little Shop of Horrors?
David Babani (artistic director of the Menier Chocolate Factory) told me he had got hold of the rights and wanted to do this and would I be interested in designing it. My first reaction was: yes, great show, as long as we can do something new with the plant. If you're tied to the original designs then it can become very staid, and the joy of my job is that I get to do something new and different each time. Historically, there have been good reasons to keep with the same Audrey II. In the original B-movie, the plant is that shape, the very simple split cabbage thing that just opens and closes. That size puppet is very expensive so often companies can only afford to do Little Shop if they hire the plants, all based on the original design, that are already doing the rounds. It's usually a case of, if it ain't broke, don't fix it
How difficult was it to get permission to make the design changes?
Surprisingly, not that tricky. We did have to submit our designs to the Ashman estate and go through that process. They said, great, you did something different with Sunday in the Park with George, we're really interested to see what you're going to do with this. Anyway, I wouldn't say our Audrey II is massively different. It's still a big green plant, but I hope it's a lot more visceral and a bit more human, particularly in the way the lips work.
Were you familiar with Little Shop of Horrors beforehand?
I had seen the film but I'd never seen any stage productions of it, not even any amateur productions. I knew the Broadway cast recording, though. When you're designing a musical, continuously listening to different cast recordings can give you a good feel for the show. Of course, you've got to take into account how long ago it was recorded and what was fashionable then.
What else did you do to develop the plant design?
Good old field research. I started at Kew Gardens with the very helpful staff down there, looking round the carnivorous glasshouses at all the different species of plants that eat stuff. From there, I did a bit more research into exotic species you might find in the tropics. That led me to one particular species which had a very fat, bloated stomach-like vessel and that contrasted with the thin tubular things I'd seen at Kew. Once we had the key visual concept together, then the practicalities started: how on earth does this get operated? This was the first time I've ever done any puppet work so there was me in the studio with lots of photos of myself on time-delay in various poses trying to work out how can I fit into a plant and operate it if it's only one and a half metres tall. It was a matter of taking those pictures and sketching around them to work out the interaction between the humans and puppets. That's also where I started to work out the scale. I went to our puppet supervisor Nigel Plaskett - he actually worked on the film version as a puppeteer and he gave me lots of advice on things to watch out for – and asked whether I was completely barking mad. He then hooked us up with Artem, the special effects makers, who actually built the things.
How involved do you normally get in the technical aspects of your designs?
I really enjoy that side of design as well. I could have just handed over visuals and said, I want it to look like this and I don't care how you do it. But I think that's a bit slack - part of the process is understanding how things work. If you understand the process, then you know how you can abuse it, how far you can push it and you might be able to use things in a more creative way. Artem designed the mechanical aspects of the plants, the animatronics - the small ones, which are like a particularly fancy radio-controlled car with no wheels, through to the big one, which has a great harness for the puppeteer and big stabilising rods so the puppeteer can move the plant in all sorts of directions but he doesn't take the weight of the bodies as they get eaten. Artem also did the fabrication of the skin. I worked a lot with one of their sculptors doing life-size clay figures of the actual plants. I got my hands very dirty.
Beyond the plant, what was your inspiration for Little Shop's set & costumes?
B movies from the 1960s. I wanted to run with that low-budget aesthetic - if you embrace that in the right way, it can really help. And we were working on a very tight budget! The cost of the plant was around £100,000, which was the cheapest we could find – luckily, David Babani did one of his magical deals. For everything else, though, it was I think £6,500 for the set and £3,000 for the costumes. In Little Shop of Horrors, all the characters are quite stereotyped and so is Skid Row itself, it's a stereotype of down-and-out Americana. It's not one specific city. It's definitely not New York, but it could be a mixture of Chicago and Detroit and those kinds of big industrial American cities.
What was the biggest challenge with the production?
Time was the major factor. The plant skins took a lot longer to dry than anticipated. That was the only real problem in rehearsals. We've occasionally had issues with the radio-controlled ones and the local taxi cabs - just now and then there's a little gremlin that gets in the system and gives the company something to overcome.
How much more work was required for the West End transfer?
Set-wise, it's been a big redesign. When I design Chocolate Factory shows, I design specifically for that space. It's such an unusual space and I look to use and abuse its quirks. That means incredibly wide but not very deep sets. If we were to pick up one of my Chocolate Factory sets and drop it straight into a West End theatre, we'd need the Palladium because of the width. With Little Shop, we had to redesign a lot to fit it into the Duke of York's. It was the same taking Sunday in the Park with George to Wyndham's.
What are your future plans?
First up is Sweeney Todd, which opens on 15 April at the Gate in Dublin. Then I'm doing the summer musical for the Menier. And then next year, we're doing Sunday over in America. We'll see what happens!
- David Farley was speaking to Terri Paddock
Little Shop of Horrors is at the West End's Duke of York's Theatre, where it's currently booking until 2 June 2007.

Tulsa is Oklahoma's second-largest city, having come to prominence after oil was discovered in 1901. Through booms and busts, Tulsa diversified, but the city still embraces the modern energy industry. Tulsa sits in Oklahoma's Green Country, surrounded by beautiful hills and lakes.
In Tulsa I found a hub of art and culture. The city has a fine collection of Art Deco buildings, many modeled after Gothic Revival buildings in Eastern cities. For refinement and opulence, visitors will enjoy the Philbrook Art Museum.
"This home, built in 1927, became a museum in 1939," said Jeff Martin, the museum's online communities manager. "It was founded by Wade and Genevieve Phillips. Wade's brother was Frank Phillips, who started Phillips Petroleum. We also have 23 acres of flawless formal gardens and a branch location downtown. We're celebrating 75 years as a museum."
The museum, located in a gorgeous, woodsy residential neighborhood, features American, European, African, Native American and Egyptian art. The museum hosts groups with varied personal interests, such as nature, gardening, history and architecture.
Another must-see Tulsa destination is the Sherwin Miller Museum of Jewish Art. The museum shares 5,000 years of Jewish art, history and culture and traces the roots of Tulsa's own Jewish community. The poignant Holocaust exhibition features hundreds of objects collected by Oklahoma World War II veterans who participated in the liberation of German concentration camps.
Tulsa contributed great music over the years, from Western swing to rock 'n' roll. The city produced stars Leon Russell, Garth Brooks and Hanson, and brews up new music at places like the hip Cain's Ballroom. The trendy Blue Dome Entertainment District, nine square blocks of downtown restaurants, bars and clubs, is a good launching pad for visiting groups.
"Tulsa has much to offer in a friendly way," said Vanessa Masucci, director of sales for the Tulsa Convention and Visitors Bureau. "We have something for every group, children to seniors."
Tulsa's Woodie Guthrie Center is a warm-hearted place, a whole center dedicated to one man. The Oklahoma native was a beloved singer-songwriter who penned tunes that even schoolchildren know today, among them "This Land Is Your Land." His music mixes politics, folk songs and ballads. But the center is as much dedicated to the creative ways Guthrie expressed himself through artwork and writings as it is to his music. Groups should carve out time for a visit.

Every way you cut it this place is amazing. The decor is beautiful, the service is well trained and so helpful. They take into account any food issues and tailor a fantastic meal to your tastes. This is an amazing place.

Very small portions. We had the 7 course tasting menu and each course was so tiny. Beautifully plated, very flavorful, extremely innovative but I want more. My boyfriend left hungry. The food was AMAZING but I was shocked at the portion sizes.

Mehtaphor is the place I always recommend to friends above all others. It is the more spacious Tribeca sister to Graffiti, which is a tiny, excellent restaurant in the East Village. The restaurant combines flavors from various cultures, but tends to come across as a New American-Indian mix. The dishes I recommend are the puff pastry pizza (the mushroom one) and the burger, but I have not been disappointed with any dish. The souffle and sundae are great desserts. The prosecco lychee martini is a signature of the place, and it is reasonably priced. All told, the food is great, and staff is friendly, knowledgeable, and efficient, and the prices are low.

NASHVILLE — Belmont put on another basketball clinic at East Tennessee State's expense Saturday night.
The Bruins broke open a close game early with a rain of 3-pointers and kept pouring it on in an 80-58 romp at the Curb Event Center.
The victory was the eighth in a row for the Bruins (21-7, 13-2), who took over first place in the Atlantic Sun Conference thanks to Jacksonville's upset of Mercer. The streak started with a 12-point win at ETSU on Jan. 23.
"Everything has gone pretty well since our game up there," said Belmont coach Rick Byrd. "Sometimes you luck into things as a coach, more than you want to admit. We put Blake Jenkins in the starting lineup to guard (Adam) Sollazzo that night, and he's been in there ever since. He's really made a big difference in our team."
Jenkins, a 6-7 sophomore, had 12 points and 12 rebounds in the rematch, but he was just one of many weapons at Byrd's disposal.
Belmont had five guys score in double figure; ETSU had two.
For the Bucs (13-13, 7-8), it was a familiar scene that played out in front of a spirited crowd of 3,451. The Bruins, with their outstanding depth, ball movement, perimeter shooting and defense, have now beaten them six in a row and 14 of 17 since they joined the A-Sun.
This was another one that was over early. Belmont led 37-21 at the half.
"The first 10 minutes was good. The game plan was good," said ETSU coach Murry Bartow. "The last 10 minutes (of the first half) we did not play well at either end. Before you can blink, we're down 16 and in real trouble."
The game had been tied at 15-all with 11 minutes gone. Then the 3-balls started going down for Drew Hanlen.
The senior point guard made three in a 12-0 run, and suddenly it was 27-15. Hanlen finished with 15 points, all on 3-pointers, and six assists.
As a team, the Bruins were 11 of 28 from behind the arc. They were also able to get the ball inside for easy scores, and they went 23 of 29 at the foul line.
"They're just a typical Belmont team," said Sheldon Cooley, who led the Bucs with 13 points and three steals. "They have the two big guys inside surrounded by shooters. If you lose your concentration on defense, they'll drill you."
Ian Clark, the all-conference guard, led the Bruins with 18 points. Kerron Johnson matched Hanlen with 15, while Scott Saunders had 12.
Isiah Brown scored 12 for the Bucs, but it was a tough night for all three of the team's seniors. Brown, Sollazzo and Tommy Hubbard managed just five points between them in the first half.
"When you have four or five empty possessions, you're in trouble against Belmont because they're going to score on two or three of theirs at least," said Bartow. "A four-point game becomes a 10-point game, and a 10-point game becomes a 16-point game. They're good."
The Bucs shot 36 percent from the field. They turned the ball over just nine times and got off 63 shots — 14 more than the Bruins. They just didn't make many.
Belmont shot 46 percent and had 20 assists on its 23 field goals.

Tyson Rashaad and Karo( If they ever give him his fuckn shot)
Tyson Rashaad and Karo( If they ever give him his fuckn shot)
Why is everyone on Bisping's nuts? I mean I like the guy and all. He was probably my favorite fighter on TUF 3, but the dude beat some weak competition on the show and doesn't have any wins over any top or near top fighters.
I have said that for a while now, but people tend to belive every thing they see on TV . Like the TUF 3 was great comp from the states.
i think Mark Epstein is a good win , i k ow his record is not the best 12-7 but he 's tough and Bisping beat him 2 , stopped him both times.
I don't think Rashad will ever be great. Finishing a fight is instinctive IMO, the other stuff, wrestling, striking, etc... can be taught, but I always felt that you either have it or you don't when it comes to finishing.
Watching some of Bisping's fights in England make me think he will be unbelieveable, he's a bad ass.
I'm pretty curious as to whom Vera's next opponent will be, anyone know?

Raw Images a valuable scientific tool?
Posted 26 September 2005 - 02:29 AM
I was using a 50mm macro lens and had my camera set up to shoot both Raw and Jpeg images. The results from post processing the Raw images are astounding - whilst I'm sure the stretched tonality would give concerns if they were to be published as anything other than scientific records, the images yield tremendous dat which is simply not clearly evident in the jpeg images.
I'll try and post a couple of examples:
Posted 30 September 2005 - 05:08 PM
How scientists manipulate images depends a lot on what questions we are asking. If we want to count corals or DAPI stained bacteria, it is often a good idea to consistently adjust images so that the item of interest is easier to see.
On the other hand, when I'm specifically investigating something where color is a component, such as how well an octopus matches it's background, I always shoot in RAW and uncompress the images in a lossless format like a tiff. I notice that in many cameras, the jpg's that are actually manipulated to make the image look better. RAW was the only way to turn this off. I also include a grey card as a standard in every shot in case the lighting changes. These data images tend to be visually boring but they serve their purpose.
For pretty pictures to show the public and other scientists, we use our judgment to show what we perceived was there. Scientists have a LOT less leeway than artists, but we still have some wiggle room for pretty pictures. What we can't ever do is misrepresent the truth of something. . . With words like "truth" and "perception", we are heading more towards philosophy than science. . .
Posted 30 September 2005 - 05:29 PM
Good subject pgk
On the other hand, when I'm specifically investigating something where color is a component, such as how well an octopus matches it's background, I always shoot in RAW and uncompress the images in a lossless format like a tiff. I notice that in many cameras, the jpg's that are actually manipulated to make the image look better. RAW was the only way to turn this off. I also include a grey card as a standard in every shot in case the lighting changes. These data images tend to be visually boring but they serve their purpose.
Color is a complicated topic. Shooting RAW does not guarantee accurate color reproduction. Outputs derived from RAW files can show as much color offsets as JPEG photos. You can easily see this first hand if you have more than one raw converter. Even using different camera profiles on the same raw converter can produce very different colors from the same raw file. A grey card definitely helps to get the right white balance, even with that it's still possible to have significant variations. A GretagMacBeth color chart would be better.
Canon 5D; Aquatica housing; 2 Inon Z220 strobes; Canon 100mm macro, 17-40mm ; Sigma 15mm FE, 24mm macro, 50mm macro
Posted 30 September 2005 - 07:55 PM
I'm using a grey card not to get the right white balance prior to the shot, but as a control to compare variation between a standard after the shot to control for exactly what you are saying.
For science shots, I don't create a different white balance each time, instead I pick a setting or kelvin temp and stick with it for consistancy.
Grey should have the same RGB values between shots, the grey I selected was in theory 120 120 120, equal parts of the three colors.
I've played with a MacBeth card but as far as I know, they don't make waterproof ones so it was a one time experiment. For qualatative teaching I prefered to use the colored squares but for quantatively showing the changes to the color with depth I used the grey squares.
Please see: http://is.dal.ca/~ce...andQuantity.pdf
for picts of what happens to a MacBeth card with depth in the clear waters of Bonaire, near noon, on a calm day.
Posted 01 October 2005 - 04:23 AM
On the subject of colour temperature, I see very varying numbers used to describe colour temperature from varying different cameras and suspect that different raw conversion software will also interpret the cameras settings differently too. It would be interesting to produce a much simplified and specific colour chart for underwater use - Depending on where you are (water tends to be green here in the UK) this could use a set of colour 'scales' based on the predominant colour (blue to green) as well as several other 'prime' colours - although not absolute, this would give at least an indication of more accurate colour adjustments which could be batch applied in photoshop for similar shots.
To get back to my original observations, I would say that the unadjusted, very dull and extremely low contrast shot would equate to what film would produce. The adjusted image makes it far easier (and sometimes even possible as opposed to impossible) to identify the creatures in shot and as such simply helps when undertaking surveys and the like.

Low contrast subject in + raw processing = informative, useful image
Posted 12 October 2005 - 12:43 PM
Often my scientific data recording images are far from my pretty picture images. While I can't tell the difference between the jpg and the tiff images extracted from raw files, my computer can as there are differences in color. For experiments on color (camouflage for example) this becomes very important. For other work, it often doesn't matter at all.
Post processing can help and act like a filter. And yes, one can only do so much, esp with a not so good shot to begin with.
Most of my science shots are garbage in terms of pretty pictures but do exactly what they were taken to do. It is just a totally different "audience".

Camcorder suggestions (recording drums)
Going to buy a cheap camcorder to record some drum playing as I have never watched myself play. Any recommendations for a camcorder to record drumming at say a $300 maximum?
I will not have my kit Mic'd either, if that matters.. Maybe down the road I will mic up though. Would also like something that I can easily put onto a computer if thats possible at this price.
Re: Camcorder suggestions (recording drums)
Your easiest entry into doing something like this would probably just be a webcam. I don't know if your computer is in the same room as your drums (or if you have a laptop). But, most webcams have some sort of mic these days. That would be an inexpensive way to do what you want, since you're not mic'd up or anything.
Re: Camcorder suggestions (recording drums)
If you're not miking anything up, the Zoom Q3 with it's better-than-average stereo microphone is the way to go. In fact, I'd like to sell mine, it's in mint condition!
My video of the drum solo on the Tama Bubingas was done with the Q3 just set up in front of the kit if you want to see what it can do.
Re: Camcorder suggestions (recording drums)
BTW that was a kick ass solo, thats the kind of drumming I aspire to someday..excellent job bro.

Robert Kusy makes a perfectly pink soup with John Torode
Method1. For the soup: put the beetroot, carrots, parsley roots, celery and apples in a large pan and pour over 1.5 litres water, or enough to cover. Add the garlic cloves, pimento leaves and bay leaf and bring to the boil.
2. Simmer the soup for 20 minutes, then remove from the heat. Season with the vinegar, marjoram, salt, pepper and sugar to taste. Cool and leave overnight.
3. The next day, strain the soup through muslin to get a clear broth. Reheat before serving.
4. For the uszka filling: melt a knob of butter in a frying pan and fry the onion until softened. Strain the mushrooms, reserving the soaking liquid. Chop them finely and add to the frying pan along with the soaking liquid. Cook, stirring, until the liquid has evaporated. Season.
5. For the uszka dough: stir the hot water into the flour then mix in the egg. Season with salt and pepper. Knead the dough until smooth, then roll out very thin.
6. Cut the dough into 5cm squares. Place a small amount of the filling onto the squares of dough and fold over on the diagonal to form triangles. Seal the edges together. Wrap the triangles around your finger, sticking the 2 bottom tips together to form a ring.
7. Bring a large pan of salted water to the boil. Add the mushroom parcels. When they float to the top, cook for 1 more minute, stirring continuously. Drain.
8. Put uszka in a soup plate and then pour hot over the hot soup. Smacznego!

Last year's beaten finalists Bayern Munich's chance for revenge away to champions Inter Milan stands out as the concluding UEFA Champions League Round-of-16 first-leg matches are played on Tuesday and Wednesday.
France's contenders enter the ring this week, hoping to upset the odds. Lyon are underdogs against nine-time European champions Real Madrid, despite the fact that the Spanish giants have fallen at this stage in the last six editions, and were knocked out of the competition by Les Gones just 12 months ago.
Manchester United will need to be on their toes away to Marseille, who despite missing a number of key players to injury have European pedigree as the only French club to have won the competition, back in 1993. Chelsea head for Copenhagen, meanwhile, desperate to put their poor domestic form behind them and take a step towards a piece of major silverware that is missing from their well-garnished trophy cabinet.
The fixtures
Second week Round of 16 first-leg matches (all kick-offs 20.45 CET)
Tuesday 22 February
FC Copenhagen-Chelsea
Lyon-Real Madrid
Wednesday 23 February
Marseille-Manchester United
Inter Milan-Bayern Munich
Match of the day
Inter Milan-Bayern Munich, Milan, Stadio Giuseppe Meazza, Wednesday 20.45 CET
Nine months to the day since they beat Bayern 2-0 in the final at the Santiago Bernabeu in Madrid, Inter Milan welcome the German champions to the Giuseppe Meazza. Leonardo's appointment as head coach at the turn of the year heralded a change of fortune for the Nerazzurri, who have since made up eight points on leaders AC Milan. Up to third in Serie A just five points behind the Rossoneri, Inter are unbeaten in ten home Champions League games (seven wins and three draws) but will be without ineligible striker Giampaolo Pazzini.
Bayern are also a side very much on the up after a poor start to their Bundesliga campaign. Their rise to third spot has coincided with the return to form and fitness of big guns Bastian Schweinsteiger, Thomas Muller and Arjen Robben. Germany star Schweinsteiger pulls the strings in midfield, Muller breaks down defences with his powerful running, and Robben is a world-class creator and scorer. Should Mario Gomez, top scorer in the German league with 18 strikes, recover from injury in time, Bayern will feel more than capable of taking an away goal or two back to Bavaria. The guile of coach Louis van Gaal versus the unstoppable Leonardo, who averages 2.45 points per match since taking over Inter, also makes for an intriguing tactical battle of wills.
The other matches
Chelsea-FC Copenhagen
Chelsea have been on the slide these past few months. Seven defeats into an initially promising Premier League campaign, the Londoners may approach their trip to Copenhagen more with trepidation than expectation. The Danish club are the first from their country to reach this stage of the competition, and have nothing to lose. A run of eight games without defeat and 18 successive European matches in which they have scored at least once, give Loverne (the Lions) further cause for optimism. Carlo Ancelotti knows crunch time has come early this season for a side who were knocked out of the FA Cup by Everton on Saturday and face Manchester United in a last-chance Premier League encounter next week.
Lyon-Real Madrid
Lyon are something of a bogey team for Real Madrid. Not only were Los Merengues knocked out of the competition by Les Gones last year, they have also lost on their last three appearances at the Stade Gerland. French teamwork has prevailed over Spanish flair, but Madrid coach Jose Mourinho at least has experience of knocking the Rhone club out of the tournament, having engineered a 4-2 aggregate quarter-final victory in Porto's Champions League-winning campaign of 2003. It will not have escaped Mourinho's notice that Lyon have been finding their form of late, firing eight goals in their last two matches. OL old-boy Karim Benzema, meanwhile, will be desperate to play in a stadium he knows so well.
Marseille-Manchester United
It has been 18 long years since Marseille last made it to the quarter-finals of the competition, and they went on to win it that year. Manchester United, in contrast, are hoping to book a fifth straight appearance in the last eight and will expect to profit from the absences of the injured Andre-Pierre Gignac and Mathieu Valbuena. Add the fact that OM have only found the net seven times in their past nine matches, with Gignac scoring four of them, to Manchester United's clean sheets in their last three Champions League away games and it seems reasonable to suggest the freescoring Premier League leaders are favourites in the Mediterranean city.
Player to watch
Fernando Torres has struggled since his mega-money move to Chelsea on transfer-deadline day. The Spain striker will hope to get off the mark for his new club, and inspire them to a much-needed victory, in Copenhagen.
The stat
0 - the number of times Real Madrid have defeated Lyon since the 2005/06 season. In six matches, the French side have recorded three wins at home and three draws away. Real Madrid have not made it into the quarter-finals of Europe's most prestigious competition since the 2003/04 season.
What they said
"We've already played Manchester United, Barcelona and other top sides. Our job is to ensure we are still in it for the second leg," Stale Solbakken, the Norwegian coach of FC Copenhagen.
Have your say
Will Real Madrid finally vanquish their round-of sixteen curse?
