Awful do not play it.
Awful do not play it.
the communitys pretty good in capricorn, the pvps amazing cuz u can kill any1 basically anywhere but the nub zones (twin city) but unless u dont mind spending a few grand on the game dont play plus htey keep making is gayer and gayer used to be really fun
The classic version is coming out on the 18th or 19th, should check it out.
i was just going to argue that co has turned to shits but it seems that tq actully cares about there best mmo and have realized that thay have made it shit and all the classsic players like myself have left and are not interested anymore. but what the guy above me has said thay have released a classic version with no cash mall it should be great im going to try it now cause i started playing co when i was just a kid of 12 years old and i am now 19 and it was one of the best games i have ever played
This game was epic before the second one came out, I loved how you couldn't really cap the game. I think you hit level 130 then reborn. The pvp kinda pissed me off back then, and how archers were Over powered against Warriors and Trojans when they got the ability to fly...every...15 minutes I think it was :P.
I don't know if its fun now...but yeh >_>!
Great review for S.U.N (Soul Ultimate Nation) from Ijji made by me !
XFire : ienvyi
Review from a WoW Player for Aion !
Game used to be great, the graphics and stuff weren't all to good but PvP actually took some skill instead of pointing at a target and waiting for it to die.
Started playing when I was 11 and I'm 18 now. Sadly they ruined the game and I'll never go back, classic isn't classic at all. Lottery is still around and its all about buying from their website. They even took out features that were in the original game.
@Envy, archer's weren't really that overpowered. All you needed were decent boots (or a shield) and they barely hurt just stunned. And XP skill was fly every 15 minutes (or every 100 kills) but they also had a stamina fly which allowed them to fly for 1 minute whenever they had full stamina.
games fun. played for some years. all in all a good time passer.
Dont waste your money/time on this game To many Hackers, Scammers, Botting, cheating, and very very rude people. Game Makers dont care about there paying customers. To many clique's and full of Egypt people who Scam and Hack to play the game.
you'll need to try it yourself to know it's good or bad

National staff support every MSF project, says Kate Mort, an MSF-USA Field Human Resources Officer.

Kate Mort is an MSF-USA Field Human Resources Officer.
National staff is crucial to every MSF project; they are at the core of everything we do. National staff makes up around 90 percent of all MSF field workers, so they do most of the nuts-and-bolts work that keeps our projects running.
Generalizing is hard, because every situation is different. For example, South Sudan is a very challenging place to find people with the necessary training and expertise. I've worked in South Sudan a few times, most recently in 2012. The population has had very limited access to education because of decades of war. There simply aren't many medically qualified people. In many projects in South Sudan, we train the staff ourselves— which also means we have to send more international staff to work in those projects.
India is on the other end of the spectrum, a place where there is a very high level of medical training and national staff tend to be very capable right off the bat, so they hold higher-level positions. The only difficulty is finding people who are comfortable working in conflict zones, where some of our projects are. They can work in a nice hospital, so why would they want to go to Chhattisgarh, a dangerous place in the middle of nowhere? That means that the international doctors that work in India tend to hold supervisory and clinical advisor positions, rather than doing more hands-on medicine, as they do in South Sudan.
With staffing, it's all about context. And the individual. When I was in South Sudan in 2004, there was an enormously enthusiastic, motivated, and intelligent guy who started as a cleaner. Over the years, he was promoted to working in the pharmacy, working on pharmacy management, working with dispensing medication and patient care. Eventually, he became a medical officer.
We certainly try to encourage professional development. There are various trainings available to national staff within MSF, and we do more trainings in the field now. We also send people from different projects to trainings all over the world, which is great, because now we have a lot more national staff moving into higher levels of management and many who go on to work for us as expatriates themselves.

Anyone ride here? I've ridden the trails there many times. There are some pretty long technical loops you can do. Just wondering if anyone else but me rides there haha. It would be nice to ride the trails with a few people.
No announcement yet.

I ride there quite a bit. Although not in the last few weeks for whatever reason. I have a good 15 or so mile loop I do starting at the main lot. There's some really nice stuff over there, but there is also a lot of trails that are just blown out by the motorcycle guys. Last time I rode there it was during one of the enduro events, nothing like running a hundred motorcycles through a trail system to keep it in good shape Sometimes those blown out trails piss me off, but I guess I just have to let it go.
I usually start my ride by crossing Gulf Road and then 190 before coming back across. There is some great trail over there that is less used. Recently I've been ending my ride with a crank up the paved road to the top and riding the blue back down. That is a nasty, wrist cramping downhill - love it.
Maybe you'll recognize some of this:
https://vimeo.com/43358544Big Strings, Big Wheels, The Jisch Blog
Yeah I know what your talking about as far as the dirt bikes ripping up parts of the trails. At least it helps keep the leaves and sticks off to a degree though haha. The last longer rides I've started have been pretty good though. Some dirt bike damage, but certainly some good sections as well. I've been starting out of the parking lot on the blue trail. There is another trail about half way up the paved access road on the left, mostly down and flows pretty well. Those downhill trails from the top are pretty fun too haha. One of them, I actually raked off the whole trail a year ago. I recognize the parts in the video too, cool. Maybe we could put a ride together there! I've really only ridden there by myself, but I know the trails really well.
When do you ride? I ride most Sunday mornings, sometimes with a group and sometimes solo. I usually try to get out once or twice during the week as well, but now that it's light season, Snip is not usually in play - I have heard of a couple of people getting tickets for being in the park after dark. I know a few places to park for Snip that are out of the way, but I usually just ride Case or Crandalls for night rides.
Have you tried Crandalls? A fairly new trail system - not nearly as big as Snip, but 8-10 miles of lightly used, twisty singletrack in Tolland.Big Strings, Big Wheels, The Jisch Blog
I've never had any issues parking in the main parking lot, but then again I'm never there until dark. If I go ride there I usually get there around 1 and ride for 2 hours or so. It's usually whenever I feel like riding, and when the weather is nice. Its easy for me since I only live 20 minutes away. I Don't have a specific biking day though, its just whenever haha. Haven't tried those other places you mentioned.
Love riding Crandell, but always looking for someone to ride with. When do you usually ride? Next time you ride there, PM me. Been riding in there with the dog lately, but would love to hook up for a night ride. PM me.

*It's great to finally have my brother back in the DMV*
From dancing beside Rihanna, gracing the floor with Beyonce, working alongside Chris Brown and sharing laughs, Jamile McGee has danced with top names in the entertainment industry. Following his days on Fox's "So You Think You Can Dance?" season one, as third place finalist Jamile has had a successful career as a dancer and choreographer.
Jamile's love for dance has been alive since a very young age. At the age of four Jamile was always dancing around the house, mimicking the famous dance moves of Michael Jackson, James Brown, and Fred Astaire. The dance moves weren't just a fun child hood pastime but an imprint on his soul that laid down the foundation for his destiny. But sadly at the age of nine Jamile was diagnosed with Systemic Juvenile Rheumatoid Arthritis and told that he was going to never walk again or live out his dream as a dancer. Unbeknownst to the doctors, it was Jamile's destiny to dance around the world and fate had a different plan for his life. He was miraculously healed and decided to devote his life to dance.
His love for dance was molded at Wright State University, where he studied ballet, modern, lyrical, and jazz. His versatile background in dance can be attributed to his success on "So You Think You Can Dance?" a show in which dancers are taken outside of their comfort zone and every week learn new dance routines. With such an extensive background in all styles of dance, including some salsa, and years of mimicking Fred Astaire, Jamile was well prepared for any challenge that was thrown his way. During that time, his ability to dance any style was tested and proven on the highly rated national Fox TV show. He amazed the crowd with his spirited come back every week with highly energized, outstanding freestyle solos.
The show may have put Jamile in the public eye, but it didn't define him as a dancer. Jamile McGee taught his first master class at the age of 16 at the Peabody Conservatory for Dance and since then has had a passion for spreading his love of dance to the world. Now at the age of 26, Jamile has danced into to hearts of those throughout the US and abroad. While on tour with Wayne Brady last year, Jamile had the chance to travel the world and had exposure to culture and the arts abroad.
His love for African music, house, indie dance styles, foreign fashion, and different cuisines were cultivated while jet setting from the edges of the Australian outback, to Amsterdam, South Africa, London, New Zealand, Greece, and Malaysia. Being on tour gave him the opportunity to network with legends in the entertainment industry and birthed in him an intense dedication to becoming the best dancer and choreographer.
Recently Jamile had the pleasure of choreographing for Will Ferrell's "Funny or Die" video featuring Wayne Brady, Mike Tyson, and Bobby Brown. The video was a viral success and quickly became one of the most circulated videos on the web in 2010. When asked about working on the video and the experience, Jamile said "As a choreographer on this job, I had to watch Bobby Brown's "Every Little Step I Take" music video over and over again to prepare my mind for shoot day. I wanted to be prepared mentally to teach the steps to the guys. Overall the job went viral and it was a huge hit! It is one of the biggest video's on the internet and still is. It was cool seeing my face on Larry King Live. It was such an honor to work with entertainment legends and the boxing champion Mike Tyson, it was a rewarding experience"
Working with Mike Tyson and Bobby Brown was a big moment in Jamile's career, but his love for dance has given him the opportunity to work with other popular artists. In the past Jamile has worked with entertainment superstars such as Nelly Furtado, Mariah Carey, Katy Perry, Keri Hilson, Nicki Minaj, and many more. His love for dance has reached a huge fan base and has opened up doors for him to work with the dance industry's biggest choreographers such as Brian Friedman, Mia Michaels, Shane Sparks, Lavelle Smith Jr., and Laurie Ann Gibson.
Jamile has choreographed routines for numerous shows and competitions across the nation, but now he has left Los Angeles returned back to his hometown of Maryland to spread his love for dance and build a dance haven for those throughout the Greater Washington DC Metro. The DMV, which stands for the DC, Maryland, and Virginia region, welcomes back Jamile McGee into their hearts. A week before moving back Jamile was honored to perform at the United States Air Force Band "Guest Artist Series" and was anxious to return back to the region responsible for his success.Jamile McGee and his wife Angie, who are now back in the DMV area to stay, are looking to open up their own dance and choreography studio. Along with looking for qualified dancers to start a dance company, Jamile McGee hopes to spread his love for dance throughout the region and give back to the community a love for dance.
He presently is teaching a Joy and Motion to develop a following. He will also be teaching master classes and workshops at a studio to be announced soon within the month of April. For more information contact him on Facebook or his blog to attend classes and for him to teach workshops at your college, studio, facility, or for special events and performances. The DMV welcomes back Jamile McGee and is honored to claim one of the nations talented dancers and choreographers. Welcome home Jamile McGee!

Please read this before continuing to the complaint form at the bottom of this page:
You have selected the Office for Civil Rights' discrimination complaint form. Please read all of the following information before continuing. In addition, you should already have read How the Office for Civil Rights Handles Complaints and Questions and Answers on OCR's Complaint Process.
OCR's authority to resolve complaints extends to allegations of discrimination based on race, color, national origin, sex, age or disability in public and private programs that receive Federal funds from the U.S. Department of Education. These include most schools and colleges and some other entities such as vocational rehabilitation agencies and libraries. OCR also has authority to resolve complaints of disability discrimination by public education entities, and complaints filed under the Boy Scouts of America Equal Access Act. If you believe you have been discriminated against on any of these bases by a covered entity, you may file a complaint using this form.
If you choose to continue, you will be asked to provide your name, address, and email address; the name and address of the person discriminated against; and the name and address of the entity you believe discriminated.
You also will be asked which of the kinds of discrimination forms the basis for your complaint. You will need to provide a description of the conduct that you believe is discriminatory.
By law, complaints of discrimination must ordinarily be filed within 180 days of the last act of discrimination. If your complaint involves matters that occurred longer ago than this and you are requesting a waiver, you will be asked why you did not file your complaint within the 180-day period.
You will be asked whether you have tried to resolve the matter using a grievance procedure or by filing with another agency.
OCR requires your signed consent authorizing us to process your complaint. If you select the electronic complaint form, after you complete the form but before you submit it electronically, you will be asked to read three additional documents. Two of these documents contain important information with which you should be familiar. The third document is a consent form, which you will need to print, sign, and mail to the Enforcement Office with authority for the state where the institution or entity you are complaining about is located. Once you submit the completed electronic complaint form, it will be routed to the OCR office with authority to handle complaints in the state where the institution or entity you are complaining about is located. A staff person will contact you once your electronic complaint has been received and reviewed.
If you select the fillable PDF complaint form, the same three additional documents are included in the PDF packet. You should familiarize yourself with the important information included in them. Once you complete the PDF application form, you should print out the entire packet, sign the consent form, and mail the complaint form and consent form to the Enforcement Office with authority for the state where the institution or entity you are complaining about is located. A staff person will contact you once your PDF complaint has been received and reviewed.
You may now continue to either the electronic complaint form or the fillable PDF complaint form, or you may abandon the form and return to the OCR Complaint Process page.

|The Carbon Dinos have been waiting for the chance to move up the Region 8 standings ladder. Tuesday night, the team did just that by handing North Sanpete their first loss of the regular season.
The Carbon High Lady Dinos have made a name for themselves in recent years when it comes to volleyball. This year, the team is by no means struggling however, they find themselves sitting in third place in the Region 8 standings. For years, it seems as if Carbon has ruled the number one seed.
Determined and strong, the Dinos put their best effort forward last Tuesday night as they hosted the region's number one ranked team, North Sanpete. This effort paid off as Carbon defeated the Hawks, 3-1.
In the first set, the Hawks defeated the Lady Dinos, 25-19. Carbon was determined to make sure this was the last set that the visiting team would win.
Carbon's Morgan Warburton stepped up strong and scored 11 kills and 22 service points for a total of 33 points.
The Dinos handed North Sanpete a 25-19, 25-23 and 25-20 loss to claim the region victory.
Carbon will now prepare for the state tourney which will get underway Oct. 31 in Orem.
Even though the team will enter the tourney unranked in the Class 3A standings, the Dinos are not worried. The volleyball squad is loaded with talented athletes who can easily lead the Dinos to a state championship.

Hooksett man facing two negligent homicide charges in boating death
BRENTWOOD - A Hooksett man is facing negligent homicide charges months after a passenger fell off his boat at Northwood Lake and died.
Eric Cable, 33, was indicted on two counts of negligent homicide for the July 14 incident that resulted in the death of Brendan Yerry, 28, of Hudson.
The new charges were made public this week in superior court. A Rockingham County grand jury handed up three charges against Cable earlier this month.
Cable faces up to 7½ to 15 years in state prison on one of the new charges for allegedly operating the boat while under the influence of alcohol, according to an indictment.
Prosecutors say while Cable was driving the boat, he allowed Yerry to ride on the gunwales or straddle the bow.
Yerry fell overboard and was struck by the boat when Cable turned into the wake of another boat, according to indictments.
Yerry was not wearing a life jacket when he went into the water around 7:40 p.m., according to the New Hampshire Marine Patrol.
Divers from the N.H. Fish and Game Department spent more than 12 hours searching for Yerry's body. It was found the morning after in about 15 feet of water, 550 feet from the northeast shoreline, according to investigators.
Northwood Lake sits between Rockingham and Merrimack Counties, spanning roughly 650 acres. Prosecutors say Cable was operating the boat in Northwood.
At the time of the incident, investigators could not say how fast Cable was driving the 18-foot motor boat.
Cable was initially charged with operating under the influence. That charge was bound over to superior court. He also faces two violation-level boating offenses. He remains free on bail.
Cable will be arraigned later this month on the new charges in Rockingham County Superior Court.

Waste Site Cleanup & Reuse in New England
Short-Term Cleanups
Hazardous waste sites that do not require a long-term cleanup process are considered short-term cleanups (also referred to as "removal actions"). Although the cleanup process for these sites may not be as lengthy as for long-term cleanups, these sites may still affect the health and environment of those who live near the site. There are three categories of short-term cleanups: classic emergencies, time-critical actions, and non-time critical actions.
One specific type of short-term cleanup is the site of an oil spill.

Submission Dell Streak likely to go straight to Froyo in US->
hasanabbas1987 writes: Though it's really quite a capable handset, Dell's Streak brought several disappointments to its belated US launch; namely, a pastry-based OS without any creme filling, and a $549 version that's still SIM-locked. While we doubt AT&T's iron grip will release the Streak from the latter servitude, Dell's Lionel Menchaca suggests that the former problem may get solved all at once, because the company is considering skipping Android 2.1 altogether for stateside Streaks and upgrading them directly to the faster, more capable Android 2.2. We don't have a timeframe for a potential release, of course, as the device just went on sale, but it's clear that Dell hears your cries for the functionality Froyo brings.

Florida, the sunshine state, is perpetually one of the most visited areas in the entire world. For vacation, you can't beat it. Year round warmth, sugar sand beaches, endless opportunity for both outdoor and indoor activities, sports, history, music, nightlife - the list goes on and on. It's really no wonder why couples, families, groups of friends and even solo travelers continue to choose the state of Florida as their go-to vacation spot. So there real, and most difficult question is, where do we go? With so many incredible choices for areas to visit in Florida, it comes down to personal preference, and the needs of the group.
Some of the more popular cities in Florida to visit are:
Florida Panhandle: The Florida Panhandle is filled with top choices for destinations. The two most popular are Destin and Panama City Beach. Destin is a Florida relaxation haven. With white sand beaches, water sports galore, and traditional family activities like mini golf and go carts - Destin is the sort of Florida spot that harkens back to a simpler time. Perfect weather and plenty of friendly locals. Panama City Beach offers the same type of atmosphere and fun as Destin, along with the turquoise gulf waters. Check out Zoo World for your fix of flora and fauna, and take the kids to Shipwreck Island water park when the weather gets too hot. For the outdoors types, go canoeing or hike the trails at St. Andrew's National Park. You could just kick back and relax on 27 miles of pristine beaches too, if you have enough energy to get down there after playing 18-holes of golf.
Disney: The Happiest Place on Earth® Who could argue? It is almost an American pilgrimage at this point for a family to visit Disney World in Florida. Magic Kingdom and Epcot are also must-visit attractions. There are hundreds of vacation rentals area the resort area to offer lodging to those who do not want to stay in a Disney hotel. Kissimmee and Orlando are also nearby with plenty of fun family attractions too. Try out Universal Studios in Orlando, or SeaWorld, or any of the other amusement parks in the city. If you're coming to Florida with small children, chances are you're coming to Disney.
Florida Keys: The Florida Keys, especially Key West, call to travelers like a siren's song. Situated just off the southern tip of Florida, Key West offers incredible diving opportunities for both experts and novices. Couple that with the year-round sunshine, its easy to see why Key West has been a favorite getaway for US President's and famous authors looking for relaxation and inspiration. Shipwrecks dot the sea floor which is what makes this area so compelling for scuba diving, and on land you can find plenty of museums and shopping.
Florida Gulf Coast: The gulf coast stretches for hundreds of miles so it can be difficult to choose where to stay if you're interested. Most travelers settle in to Anna Maria Island, Cape Coral, Fort Myers, Sanibel Island, Fort Lauderdale, Siesta Key, or Naples. But how do you choose? If you're looking for the slow Florida life and a beach lover's paradise, you'll want Anna Maria Island or Sanibel Island. For shopping, dining, and more lively fun check out Fort Lauderdale and Siesta Key. Naples has the best golf and quietest oceanfront, Fort Myers has the best seashells to grab, and Cape Coral has an art scene that matches the best in Florida.
Miami: For the hottest nightlife and beaches as far as the eye can see - visit Miami. On Miami Beach you'll find art deco architecture, neon lights, and gorgeous locals sunning themselves along Collins Avenue. With successful sports teams like the Miami Heat and not-so-successful sports teams like the Miami Marlins (albeit with an incredible new stadium) this area is a must-visit for sports lovers. South Beach is of course of the most famous places to swim and tan in all the world. The party and club scene in Miami is the best in Florida which is why it is such a celebrity hot spot. If you're looking for romance, or a wild party, you should absolutely visit Miami.
The vacation rental industry has been booming in Florida for decades, but has increased dramatically since the advent of online listing sites like FlipKey. We have over 32,000 options for vacation rentals in Florida alone. Condos, villas, apartments, entire homes, houseboats - everything is in play. Vacation rentals offer travelers the space, privacy, and amenities of home but for typically a lower price than traditional hotels. Between the experienced VR owners and the hundreds of property managers operating in Florida, you will absolutely be treated like a VIP.
Let's not gloss over the amenities, especially in Florida. Your rental may have a in ground pool, a grille with patio, a jacuzzi, a movie theater, a trampoline, jet skis for use, a dock, a full bar - these are just some of the amenities available. If you are traveling with your family, or with a large group a vacation rental is an extremely smart choice as it would cost a fraction of what a hotel would, but with enough bedrooms to suit everyone. Make the right choice when you head to Florida, stay in a vacation rental.

Aftermarket shift gate
Just got done converting my 46 knuck from a straight 3 speed to a 4 speed tranny. I used a cool cast bronze shift gate that has high gear forward so it shifts like my later ( 47 and up )bikes. Just flip the arm in the lid and used four speed drum and gears. Anybody know who manufactured these gates? They are very heavy castings and bolt right on the catseye tanks. I'm sure they came out right after 47 so you could convert your old bike to the new shift pattern.

I hope this gets to the right person. I recently experienced a problem with a rollerator I bought from you. She promised to call back and actually did. She got my problem resolved by the next day. I really appreciate the kind of service I received from her. I spent the majority of my career as a customer service manager and it's good to see that there are still caring people out there. Not just about themselves, but caring about how customers view their company.
Thanks Erin,

Jerk--Cook-Off 41
Posted 21 July 2008 - 09:15 AM
Perhaps the most internationally well-known food from Jamaica involves the spicy dry-rub Jerk seasoning, cooked in a 55-gallon drum converted into a charcoal grill, and served screaming-hot as street food across the island. While most of us don't have 55-gallon drums in our backyards, jerk-style meats (and even tofu!) are perfect for outdoor grilling, and (in a pinch) roasting for those without access to a grill.
The recipes in RecipeGullet have the common theme of Allspice and Scotch Bonnet peppers, in addition to the inclusion of scallions, garlic, nutmeg, cinnamon, etc. We have a recipe for Jerk Chicken and for Jamaican Jerk Paste which it seems can be readily adapted to nearly any protein, with pork, goat, and chicken being the best-known examples. In addition, entire cookbooks exist dedicated to the subject—Jerk from Jamaica: Barbecue Caribbean Style, for example.
Here on the eGullet Forums we have topics devoted to Jerk Chicken, Jerk Sauce, Jerk Pork, a discussion on the authenticity of using Soy Sauce in Jerk, and even some advice on Oil Drum Cooking.
What is your "house blend" of Jerk spices? Soy Sauce included, or sacrilege? Doin' your thing over gas, or burning Pimento Wood, or living in an apartment with no grill and winging it?
Posted 21 July 2008 - 10:49 AM
Wouldn't we all love to have a source of pimento wood.
Jerk Marinade/Sauce
1 Small Habanero – Fire roast, peel, devein, seed
Dry Ingredients: Grind dry ingredients in a coffee grinder
2 Tbsp. All-spice berries, toasted
2 tsp. Black and white peppercorns, toasted
1 Bay leaf
1/2 tsp. Nutmeg
1/2 tsp. Pimenton
2 tsp. Kosher salt
1/2 tsp. Cinnamon
Wet Ingredients: Blend in a small processor
1 small Habanero from above - chopped
4 to 5 Scallions, green and white, chopped
2 large Cloves of garlic
1 Tbsp. Ginger, fresh - chopped
2 Tbsp. Fresh thyme leaves
Add dry ingredients to wet ingredients and blend to mix
Drizzle in:
1 Tbsp. Lemon juice
1 Tbsp. Peanut oil
Blend into a paste
Use about 3/4 cup per chicken. Marinate 4 hours to 12 hours.
Roast halved chicken over smoke at 250 degrees for one and one-half to two hours.

Busy the next few days, but maybe early next week I will attempt a real morter and pestle stab at this again. It is generally too spicy for me, but I love the flavor. Hubby will rave.
Pigeon peas and rice are the traditional sides I think - or at least that's what I see around and about. Malanga, maybe? It would offset the fire. Some very nice breads come out of the Islands as well. There is a Jamaican Bakery and sort of luncheonette close by - maybe they will let me take pictures.
Posted 22 July 2008 - 07:09 AM
I have read in various online sources that soaked allspice berries can be added to the coals to get a similar flavor. Has anyone tried this? There is an online source for Pimento (Pimiento?) wood out of Minneapolis, I think, but they are quite pricey and frequently sold out.
Yep, Jamaica has a pretty good stranglehold on Pimenta - although my Puerto Rican and South American neighbors are cultivating it with good success. Not sure why I have never tried to grow this one - possibly because I've moved around too much in the last 5 years or so. You have to have both male and female plants. Heck, there may be some growing in the scrub west of me.
Posted 22 July 2008 - 07:21 AM
Pimiento is a true capsicum (pepper) and something entirely different. I think I read somewhere that the original explorers were looking so hard for East Asian spices that they mistook the Allspice plant for black pepper, thus the confusion in nomenclature - as they are differnt species. I would have to look all that up again though to be sure.
Posted 26 July 2008 - 11:00 AM
I picked these babies up at the farmers' market this morning:
What do you mean you don't use that many?!? Sissies... (OK, OK, I only used three of them, but the guy was only selling by the basket-full).
The recipe calls for "fire-roasted habañeros" so here goes with the fire roasting part:
The ingredients are then combined into a food processor (or blender, or maybe even a mortar and pestle setup if you are hardcore...):
I whirred it for a good long while since I didn't want any big chunks of habañero in there: better safe than sorry!
What you finally end up with is a bit wetter than I was expecting: the recipe calls for a quite large quantity of orange juice (fresh-squeezed, of course) which serves as the liquid base. Having never made Jerk before I was imagining more of a paste-like texture that would get rubbed on, but this is definitely more of a marinade:
Next up, the pork shoulder. I ordered this one up from Niman Ranch since I don't have a local pork supplier yet:
I didn't actually want the whole thing to go Jerk, I am making some pulled pork as well, so I cut off a good looking chunk to get marinating Jerk-style:
Finally, I put it one of those Reynolds' Vacu-Seal bags and sucked the air out to keep the marinade in good contact with the meat:
My plan is to let this marinate for 48 hours, then slow-smoke it over charcoal with some soaked allspice berries added to the coals in an attempt to get some Pimento flavor. No idea if it will work, and I've never tasted something smoked over Pimento wood, so I guess I won't know! Hopefully it tastes good, anyway.
Edited because I can't type...

Posted 28 July 2008 - 01:41 PM
Well, in the defense of the recipe, it calls for 1/4 cup of Allspice berries: once ground up I estimate it was more like a tablespoon. The flavor is definitely strong, but not overwhelming. I'm smoking it right now, so I guess we'll find out how well it worked in a couple hours. I only used a fraction of the recipe: I made a whole batch, but added just enough to the bag to make an effective marinade: maybe 1/4 of it?
I'll be interested to know how this turns out. Did that recipe really call for 1/4 cup of allspice? Sounds like a lot, but really, how much less would make sense for 3kg (6.6lbs) of pork?
Time will tell.....

Hey we did lazy-persons jerk chicken this weekend (walkerswood/oil marinade - 4hrs) and cubed some plantain, fried in butter & oil (5min), stirred in garlic, ginger and allspice. After 10 min, added thyme, sugar, salt and some flat ginger ale!
I'm wondering what sides are traditional or even appropriate with jerk. Rice and peas with some fried plantains?
Came out great!

I soaked some allspice berries in water to add to the coals and create some smoke. In hindsight with was probably not worth the trouble: I did not detect much scent from them while smoking, and I think the standard smoke from the hardwood charcoal overpowered any slight flavor they may have imparted.
I set up an offset fire in the trusty Weber:
I held the temperature between 200F and 250F for approximately five hours, to get this:
That only brought the temp up to about 150F, so another hour or so in a 350F oven finished it off and brought it up to 200F. Action shot courtesy of my wife:
Close-up of the pork:
I followed markemorse's recommendations for the sauce, though I don't think the additional sugar was necessary:
And finally:
I served it with cilantro-lime rice and some sauteed squash, since I am not familiar with the appropriate authentic Jamaican accompaniments. The verdict? Tasty, but not enough heat, and too much allspice. I think I would cut the allspice in half, and double the habaneros next time. I know in markemorse's original post he was trying to keep the heat down, and I wasn't sure exactly how much heat there would be since habaneros can be a bit touchy, so that's no big deal, but your instincts about the amount of allspice called for seem correct: I think about half that quantity would be more appropriate. Maybe that was a typo?

I have a Weber that needs new handles- are your plastic or ceramic or something else entirely? They look nice and sturdy.

sorry that didn't really work out...that allspice conversation yesterday had me looking through my notes. I think the plan was to try another pass in the test kitchen, using some tips from here. Which happens to use twice the habaneros and only 2tbsp of allspice. But I think that's why this never went into RecipeGullet...I never did try it again....
hopefully it still made for passable eatin'...
Posted 29 July 2008 - 06:26 AM
It wasn't bad per se, it was just dominated by the allspice. Some tinkering with the marinade will be required to get the ingredients in balance. In retrospect I should have done some adjustments when I first tasted it, but I sometimes have a hard time imagining the effect of a marinade based on its initial flavor. Gotta work on that!

Been making Jerk for a few years now and with any recipe like this it's evolved over time, here is mine as it stands. This amount makes enough marinade for 4 to 6 big chicken legs:
3 Big Scotch Bonnets - stalks removed but left whole
2-3 limes - Juice and zest
Dozen stalks of stripped thyme leaves
2-3 Fat Scallions - whites only
1 Tbl Pimento
2 Tbl Molasses Sugar
2 Cloves Garlic
1 Tsp Salt
Splash of Soy
Splash of Coconut Rum - optional nearer the end of the marination time.
Blend everything very well and marinate overnight. Make sure plenty of the marinade sticks when you're cooking.
For me, Jerk has to be lip-smackingly hot with the fruity freshness of citrus and pimento. The sugar helps with the nice caramelisation and the coconut rum gives a pleasing twist if used. Also, i find the Scotch Bonnet chillies vary in quality and they are the most important ingredient. From the supermarkets around here they are small and bland, but from the Jamaican stall at the market they are big, wrinkly and fiery. The problem is you can't really try them before you buy - a really fiery one would kill you!! Ok call me chicken but i think y'all know what i mean
I admit it looks like a burst colostomy bag but omigod does it taste good...
Posted 16 August 2008 - 05:24 AM
I didn't have much time this morning to prepare a paste, so I used this Inner Beauty hot sauce knock-off, which has a jerk base though adds mustard and lacks thyme. The mustard seemed a good idea with the lamb, and I could easily supply thyme. Finally, since I was going to let this sit in the fridge overnight, I didn't want to add any additional uncooked acid, so no lime.
The lamb leg butterflied so that the marinade could get in deep:
Lots of thyme laid out:
IB sauce poured over and massaged in:

Tomorrow I'll tie it, smoke it in the Bradley until 140F or so, and then bring it inside to finish. Pics to come.

Akees are a traditional vegetable dish.
Callaloo (Amaranth) is a form of Jamacian greens, prepare it with okra and spinach water. Spinach can be substituted for the Amaranth as well.
Baked papaya would work
This is from "Time Life - Foods of the world"
Cut a 5-6# green papaya in half, scoop out pulp and coursley chop it.
Saute 1 cup of onions, and add the pulp and 4 medium tomatoes (that have been cored, peeled, and seeded) 1 tsp salt and pepper to taste. Let cook down until most of the pot liquor is evaporated. Stuff the papaya halves with the mixture, spread some soft butter over the top of each half and coat with a mixture of bread crumbs and parmesan cheese. Bake in a shallow roasting pan in a water bath for 20 mins or until the top is browned and the papaya tender. I suggest a 350º oven.

double fried plantains ..and yes rice and peas
any recipe for jerk is made better and really if you want it to be Island style you have to add a spoonful of Grace's Jerk
seriously everyone in the islands does that they make up their own jerk recipe or use mammy's and then add a spoonful of jerk seasoning ..(just like mammy!)

Posted 17 August 2008 - 10:41 AM
this is false, I've been to Jamaica and had jerk in a number of places
and it was not insanely hot as many assume it to be, however they typically have hot sauces to sprinkle on
Jerk is more about the process which is not much different than bbq smoking.
a typical jerk centre has a charcol grill which is then entirely covered with
the pimento sticks so that you can even see the coals from above and then the meat is placed on the sticks which will smoke from the coals below, then entire grill is then covered with sheets of metal
the sides are fries, buttered bread, roasted breadfruit and festival which is basically a fried torpedo shaped slightly sweet cornbread about 4 inches long
for me the best jerk item was the sausages
Posted 17 August 2008 - 04:03 PM
I took it out a bit later than I'd have liked (it was at 150F), and because it wasn't shoulder it did dry out a little bit. But the smoke, sauce, thyme, and lamb were a great combination. I think next time I'd grab it at 130F or 135F -- or try to find a shoulder around here.
The final plating:
Clockwise from 12, the lamb, a nectarine and ginger compote, fried plantains, rice and peas (black beans -- daughter's favorite), and the hot sauce. Had it all with a tall Gingered Gentleman to drink.
Posted 14 September 2008 - 04:57 PM
We made grilled jerk chicken thighs and drumsticks (clicky for recipe), shortcut rice and "peas", and roasted sweet potatoes. No habaneros to be found, so we used Korean chiles and marinated the chicken for about eight hours.
I have no idea if the jerk chicken recipe is "authentic" or not. The marinade and low heat kept the chicken falling-off-the-bone tender and juicy, but my baseline jerk chicken -- from Jamaica Joe's in Silver Spring – was more saucy (probably braised rather than grilled).
I do miss the accompaniments at Jamaica Joe's: Jamaican Hellfire Sauce mixed with Pickapeppa Sauce, DG ginger beer, meat patties, Bob Marley videos, and, on occasion, the wait staff softly joining the chorus of "No Woman, No Cry".

Here is the result (I meant to photograph the plated version, but by the time I remembered we had already eaten it!):
In the background is a piece of Festival, also from the book. This chicken recipe is a definite keeper: the result, after 3 1/2 hours of hickory smoking, was one of the best barbeque chicken recipes I have ever had anywhere. Even the white meat was tasty! The Festival was not so successful: I do not know what the correct texture is, but I hope this was not it... it was much too dense, in my opinion.
Posted 15 October 2008 - 08:14 AM
OK, I took another stab at Jerk, using chicken this time, and the recipe from Jerk from Jamaica: Barbecue Caribbean Style. It had similar ingredients, though in vastly different proportions, to the recipe I used above: I really need to get myself down to Jamaica to see how much intra-island variation exists. For example, her recipe for the marinade-version has no citrus in it: the acid is added as cider vinegar. The bulk of the liquid in this very thick "marinade" actually comes from the onion.

If the festival was too dense then you probably got it right! Looks awesome Chris.. You need to get yourself some canned ackee...
I made jerk chicken the other day.. It was actually jerk cornish game hen.. I marinated it for two days and then pressed it down on a cast iron grill pan in my apartment..
Served with coconut rice.. The rice was wonderful.. Cooked the rice in the milk of a few coconuts and some red beans.. Added scallions and fresh grated coconut.. It was really good.

Jerk is more about the process which is not much different than bbq smoking.
I have had jerk food in many places in Jamaica and often times it is incredibly hot.. I have also had it cooked out of garbage cans to pretty extensive grill set ups..

Hi. My name is Bar. I'm a model. I'm currently working as a model and actress, you know, just to pay the bills. But I need your help to make my real dream come true.
I would like to make a sex tape. Just to be clear, this would be a tape of me having sex with some dude, we'd do sex in many different sex positions for at least a few hours.
I know what you're thinking. Who would want to watch that? I'm not sure myself. But, maybe a small audience might want to watch me having sex. After all, I'm, I'm really good at it.
[Change Clinking]
Now, here's where you come in. I'm hoping to possibly raise ten thousand dollars.
It's a lot, yes. But, I need great equipment. Only the clearest HD camera ought to capture my naked body perfectly.
[Men Yelling] [Change Clinking]
You probably still aren't sold, huh? So, here's a few incentives. If you pledge fifty dollars, I'll send you an autographed picture of me having sex. If you're into that kind of thing. For two-hundred-dollars, you can visit the set, and for one thousand dollars, I'll put you in the running to be the lucky guy.
[Change Clinking]
Or girl.
With your pledges, I will craft a visceral portrait of the human body deep in lovers' embrace. Basically, I'm going to do it with a weiner. So please, give what you can. This project could not be more near and dear to my heart. And therefore, my boobs. Thank you for your time.

Giant City Trail Information
Whether you have a day or a week at Giant City State Park, spend some time on the spectacular hiking trails. Trails range from 1/3 mile to 12 miles, so take your pick! Be sure to get a interpretive trail guide at the Visitors Center.
A map of the park and interpretive trail guides for each of the trails at Giant City are available at the Visitors Center. In addition, visitors can pick up checklists for trees, birds, amphibians/reptiles and wildflowers at the Center.
Arrowwood Self-Interpretive Nature Trail
Just off of the parking lot at the Visitors Center lies Giant Citys newest trail. This 1/3 mile tree identification trail is an easy walk through a young forest. Twelve interpretive signs are located along the trail with tips on identification and uses of trees. Hike this trail first for a refresher on many of the trees of Giant City.
Devils Standtable Nature Trail
For a little more strenuous hike, try this one. This 1/3 mile trail has some short uphill climbs that are well worth the effort. Tall forest trees surround you as you approach the 70 - 80 feet tall sandstone cliffs. An interpretive sign explains how the tall standtable formed.
Stonefort Nature Trail
One of only ten sites found in southern Illinois, a "stonefort" is a wall of heavy stones left by Late Woodland Period (600 - 900 AD) Native Americans. Although called "stoneforts", their true use is unknown. They may have been ceremonial meeting places. Anyway, come theorize for yourself. This 1/3 mile trail can be quite strenuous.
Indian Creek Nature Trail | Trail Map
3/4 mile moderate trail crosses Indian Creek, a rocky stream that moves
a lot of water during wet seasons.This trail is worth the effort as it
provides glimpses of a mature floodplain forest containing large cottonwoods
and sycamores. Youll also be rewarded half way with a large sandstone
bluff where some believe Native Americans took shelter. This trail closes
during shotgun deer season.
Giant City Nature Trail | Trail Map
far the most popular trail at Giant City, this 1
mile trail is home to the famous "streets" of Giant City. Youll
walk on a mulched trail with wooden walkways at difficult spots. There
are some strenuous uphill portions on this trail. Take this trail to view
a diversity of plant habitats from creek bottomland to dry blufftop. This
is also a promising trail for seeing the largest woodpecker in the United
States, the pileated woodpecker.
Trillium Trail | Trail Map
its spring woodland wildflowers youre after, this is the trail
for you. Known for such rare species as Forbes Saxifrage and Frenchs
Shooting Star, the sandstone bluffs of this 2 mile trek are home to a
great variety of Illinois finest wildflowers. This is a rugged trail
with rocky terrain and clifftop edge sections. Please use caution as the
slightest moisture leaves sandstone slippery!!!
Red Cedar Hiking Trail | Trail Map
ahead to complete this 12 mile hike around the park. Youll
experience a little of everything Giant City has to offer on this trail,
including oak-hickory forests, rocky creeks, and sandstone bluffs and
shelters. No water is available, so please carry enough to meet your needs
for a long way. Although there are creeks crossed on this hike, most of
them are intermittent or running only during or after storm events. A
primitive tent camping area at 6 miles provides fire grills, picnic tables,
and privies. Please stop at the Visitors Center to get a camping permit.
This trail is closed during shotgun deer season.
Post Oak Nature Trail
This 1/3 mile handicapped-accessible trail winds along the top of a beautiful forested sandstone cliff. The paved trail leads visitors through many natural experiences including viewing the life around a small wildlife pond and exploring a dry blufftop oak forest with gorgeous overlooks. This trail is also perfect for elderly visitors or parents with very young children.
