Gotta Dance
With or without men, in search of romantic Vienna.
Apr 6, 2009, Vol. 14, No. 28 • By SARA LODGE
Everyone has a ball in Vienna.
Between December and March, every weekend, in palaces and hotels and church halls in the Austrian capital, somebody is holding a dance. There is the Sugarbakers' Ball, where you can cakewalk with a confectioner; there is the Coffeehouse Owners' Ball, which runs very latte; and of course, the Opera Ball, whose tickets hit a note that few can reach.
Further down the scale, there's a Roofers' Ball, a Shoemakers' Ball, a Policemen's Ball (not secret, but closed to the public), and possibly even a Parking Attendants' Ball: You can't buy tickets for that one; you are given them.
I had long dreamed of waltzing to the strains of Strauss in a city that looks as if it is built of marzipan. But I don't have a fairy godmother, and I don't have a romantic partner. So I decided to take matters into my own hands. Balls without men--why not? I placed a call to my Danish friend Ilse who, among many admirable qualities, is red-haired, feisty, and fearless.
"We're going to a ball in Vienna," I told her. "You'd better practice reversing in heels."
It isn't, in principle, difficult to get a last-minute ticket to a Viennese ball: Many only issue tickets in the week before they take place. But you have to be quick. I just missed tickets for the Circle of Industry and Technology Ball (I imagine they dance to the Electric Light Orchestra). Instead, I ended up with tickets to the Altkalksburger Ball.
Who or what was the Altkalksburger? Reader, I hadn't the faintest idea. But the ball cost 50 euros a ticket, and it was in the attractive Auersperg Palace. What could possibly go wrong?
"Maybe the Altkalksburger is the Austrian name for the League of Frustrated Fascists," mused Ilse, when I told her. "Or maybe it's the Old Age Pensioners' Ball."
We might be shimmying with a zimmer for all I knew. "It'll be fun," I assured her.
In the best tradition of Cinderella, we were running late. Ilse's flight was delayed. I had just stepped off a train without a dress. That is, I was not embarrassingly unclothed--this was reserved for later in the evening--but I didn't own a floor-length gown. Viennese balls are very strict about their dress code. Although at some traditional balls men wear leather shorts and green hats with feathers in them, exposure of the female ankle results in mirth and shame.
The receptionist at our hotel took pity on me. "You need to go to Peek and Kloppenburg," she said.
Peek and Kloppenburg is a department store a few metro stops west of the town center. At first sight it seemed an unlikely place to find a ball dress: It was full of T-shirts, socks, button-down shirts, and babywear. But rounding a corner at random I heard a noise reminiscent of a seabird colony in nesting season. Following the shrieks and chatter, I came upon an extraordinary sight: hundreds of dresses in ruby, gold, aquamarine, electric blue, fuchsia, and silver, and amongst them all the sisters and mothers and best friends and boyfriends and grandmothers of all the women under 40, in the whole of Vienna, simultaneously helping them choose a frock.
Finding a dress was easy; finding a place to try it on was nearly impossible. I ended up with a fetching strapless number in black tulle with a spider web of silver sequins curling around one hip. It was definitely floor length. Indeed it was so floor length (I'm five-foot-five) that when I swept down a staircase I was liable to take everything on the staircase with me from cake crumbs to potted plants. I felt very elegant.
When we were finally in our cab, my skirts frothing over most of the backseat, and traveling through a starlit Vienna, I was aglow with happiness. The air was clear and cold; in a few days it would snow. The baroque Auersperg Palace was all I could have hoped. With marble staircases curving upward to east and west, there were sweeping opportunities to rival Scarlett O'Hara's. The rooms were as pretty as patisserie, with vanilla stucco friezes of Roman wrestlers and pistachio paint work. In the main salon I heard with delight a real orchestra striking up the waltz from The Merry Widow.
But what of the Altkalksburger? They were, Dear Reader, the alumni of a rather exclusive Viennese private school. Ilse and I are both thirtysomething, and we had stumbled into a prom.
All balls in Vienna begin with the debutantes dancing. These young ladies, attending their first ball, are dressed in white gowns with white gloves and posies and partnered by gauche young men in evening dress. It is the terpsichorean equivalent of first communion. The young people are prepared by dancing schools for weeks beforehand. Anxious parents crowd around, dewy-eyed, to watch them twirl their way into tradition.

Easley High football players, cheerleaders visit East End Elementary to encourage students
East End Elementary students are treated to a visit from Easley High School football players and cheerleaders each Friday morning. The football players and cheerleaders greet the students and welcome them to school. They participate in the Friday morning announcements, lead the students in the pledge of allegiance and visit the classes.
It is a highlight for the elementary students each Friday. This partnership is one of the many ways the schools within the Easley area are working together to promote success for all students, as the elementary students are encouraged, as they relate to students who are in the high school they will attend.
The outreach by EHS helps the students realize some of the many wonderful opportunities ahead as they will feed into Easley High School in the future, as they finish elementary and middle school. In turn, the high school students are cheered to victory and success by the elementary students.
Fridays are special as Easley High reaches out to East End Elementary school.

DreamHost, the company that provides servers for this website and an increasing number of others I host, has done me wrong a number of times, but now that they upgraded my system from a Pentium III to a dual Xeon, things have been smooth. My hosting plan of choice is their "Code Monster" plan, for which I pay about $12 a month in lump payments every two years.
Last night, I processed the payment for the next two years. In turn, I host sites for friends and clients in addition to myself. It takes only one client to pay for DreamHost's hosting fees, so I don't complain too much. They provide more than enough server space and bandwidth for now.
This is the kind of expense I should use Quicken to spread out over the two year period (the accural method) but I usually don't bother with so much detail and just record the lump expense when I pay for it (the cash method).
While occasionally I've threatened to leave, I've been a customer since 1999. Prior to that my web space was provided to me for free by various universities, including the University of Delaware (I attended school there, so I guess it was included in tuition), Princeton University (I worked there), and George Mason University (a friend of a friend attended school there).

I frequently borrow childrens' books from the local médiathèque, conveniently located two blocks from our apartment. David and I decided to borrow a book called Etats-Unis yesterday to see if it was accurate in its description of my country.
We were reading through it together last night when we came across this sentence describing Thanksgiving: "Nous mangeons de la dinde rôtie, du maïs, des patates douces, de la compote de canneberges et de la tarte à la citrouille."
David asks, "C'est quoi, canneberges?" I reply, "C'est Québécois pour cranberry!" I was so excited to see a Quebecois word in a book I found in France! And to teach David a new word in his own language. Well, sort of. Or should I say, to teach him a word in our hopefully-soon-to-be new language?
In conclusion, I love Quebecois French.

Chef Q & A: Fred Braun
Fred Braun
Executive Chef
Island Café
918 N. Collier Blvd., Marco Island. Phone: 394-7578
Hours: Open for dinner from 5 p.m. Tuesday through Saturday, closed Sunday and Monday.
Began working at present restaurant?
In December 2005.
What is it about food that made you decide to cook for a living?
I suppose the variety. I worked in a restaurant after school when I was a teenager and I could see that cooking food would provide me with an outlet to be creative. I started at the Sheraton in Columbus, Ohio and by the time I was 17 I was cooking. I was promoted to assistant chef at 18 and worked there five years. Cooking in a restaurant appealed to me because you could do different things with food and create new dishes every day.
What was your first restaurant job?
The Sheraton in the early 1970s.
How long have you been cooking professionally?
For over 30 years now.
What is the most unusual dish you ever cooked?
I would say shad roe because it's something more commonly found in Europe.
Are you planning changes to your menu for the summer season?
Yes, we're featuring our Island Café Fixed Price Menu available all night and offering a four course dinner starting with selection of six appetizers, then choice of soup or salad, along with a nice choice of six entrées, and choice of five desserts. The three-course dinner also includes the soup or salad and entrée choices with a third course of appetizer or dessert. This fall, we're going to add mainly entrees from the regular menu. The Fixed Price Menu has been hugely successful for us and very popular with our guests.
What is the most popular dish on your menu?
It's hard to say, probably one of the entrees from my Chef's Nightly Specials menu.
What is one food that you'll never eat? Why?
It would have to be something bizarre like the ones seen on BizzaAndrew Zimmerman's TV show or a Peruvian delicacy, roast Guinea pig that was mentioned when we were thinking of featuring a Peruvian menu at a restaurant I worked in previously – that certainly ended the discussion.
Who would you like to cook a meal for? Why?
Sophia Loren. Because she has been my ideal of a beautiful woman. I would create something new and hope she would be as pleased by it (the dish) as I was inspired to make it.
What is your most essential cooking implement? Why?
My scimitar knife. The curved blade makes it easy to cut around fish bones to fillet a fish, and it's also good for trimming and slicing a whole beef strip loin into steaks.
What is your favorite TV cooking show?
The "Top Chef" series and the new "Top Chef Masters.'
What would you like to be doing if you weren't a chef?
Well, as a kid I thought I's like to be a professional bowler. I always had a dream of doing a PBA (Professional Bowlers Association) Tour.
What annoys you most in the kitchen?
Unmotivated people.
What do you enjoy most about your profession?
I love that I now have the opportunity to be able to cook for someone who will remember the meal as being the best they ever ate — you know, the times you can hit a home run in the kitchen!

For the last few days, I've been completely fascinated (horrified?) by the Shey Stahl plagiarism scandal (you can catch up with posts from Dear Reader and GalleyCat). Stahl has been accused of copying the Twilight fan-fiction Dusty—written by Sarah and Mary Elizabeth—in her new book For The Summer. In situations like these, I try to give both sides the benefit of the doubt, as I don't think it's fair to dropkick a woman's career before she has a chance to defend herself. Yet in viewing Dusty and For The Summer side-by-side, it's nearly impossible to believe the similarities are coincidences: at certain points, it seems like Stahl literally copied paragraphs of text from Dusty, changed a few words, and called it her own. It's awful. Since the accusations came out, Stahl's other books have been pulled from Amazon and Barnes & Noble, her Facebook and Twitter have been locked, and her website has been shut down for semi-permanent "maintenance." Dedicated readers have also dug up other instances of possible plagiarism in her works—makes you wonder if she ever wrote anything original at all…
First, a question: how stupid do you have to be to plagiarize these days? We live in a society where every scrap of content we post online is searchable. If you steal, someone will catch you—and this is a completely good thing. Authors should be accountable for creating original content and those who break the rules should be called out. You can't copy or "repurpose" or "improve" or whatever other words you want to use to cover your ass. That's thieving. And if you do it, I hope you get punished for it.
I wish I was uniquely suited to discuss the issue of web plagiarism firsthand, but it seems to be a sadly common occurrence. So from all of us who have dumped ourselves into a project only to find our content stolen, I can tell you that it fucking sucks. I'm not going to give you the exact circumstances of my story because a). I wish the whole thing never happened, and b). it infuriates me to this day to even think about it. But to summarize, a few years ago an author from a well-known news source used research and ideas I'd posted on a (now defunct) blog without crediting me. Many people were quick to point that this author didn't technically "plagiarize" since she didn't copy us directly, but instead consulted with us and used what she learned as the foundation for her article. Almost everyone (except the author and her editor) was willing to admit it was unethical. I, of course, had some other words for it.
Suffice it to say, getting "repurposed" like this almost was mind numbing. To see someone else reap the benefits of our legwork made us feel helpless. It was frustration at its finest, and I'm not exaggerating when I say there was absolutely nothing we could do. How does a small-time blog retaliate against a massive news website? Answer: you don't. You can do absolutely nothing. Sure, we could smear the author who wrote the article, but we're not internet-troll-bitches (fun fact: we never even used the author's name in our post detailing our side of the story). In the end, we had no choice but to swallow our pride and move on. We were the crazy ones, the naive little bloggers who failed to realize that someone can steal your ideas—I mean, rip you off to your face—and get away with it. It almost made me want to quit entirely. Because what's the point of trying to do something original when someone bigger than you can come along and commandeer it. There is a point right? Right?
I don't know if Shey Stahl intentionally plagiarized or not, and despite the evidence, I'm not willing to call her a dirty thief just yet. That said, I do understand what Sarah and Mary Elizabeth are dealing with right now; if they're anything like me, they poured themselves into their writing, missed sleep and gave up time with their families to do what they love. I'm so glad they're getting recognition for their work now—I just wish they had gotten the attention and respect they deserve without getting plagiarized first.

A suburban New York newspaper that sparked an uproar among gun enthusiasts by publishing names and addresses of residents holding pistol permits is now planning to publish even more identities of permit-toting locals.
Further names and addresses will be added as they become available to a map originally published on Dec. 24 in the White Plains, New York-based Journal News, the newspaper said.
The original map listed thousands of pistol permit holders in suburban Westchester and Rockland counties just north of New York City.

Finally, after the work of conceptualizing, creating and producing your new brand, it's time to take it to market—and hopefully to watch it thrive. By now, the brand identity is set, the formula is optimized and stable, the packaging is done, and your brand is ready to implement a vital go-to-market and sales distribution plan.
Although it may seem the harder work of launching your brand is behind you, in reality, much effort remains. It's not enough anymore to just create a beautiful brand with gorgeous packaging and lush formulas. Consumers won't come just because you built it. You have to create and maintain an aggressive sales plan—which includes retail distribution and consumer purchase scenarios, in addition to managing the distribution and inventory planning—if you want to keep your brand on target and able to both have inventory to sell and stock to replenish once it's a hit with consumers. The launch of marketing efforts, public relations outreach, beauty editorial exposure, social media campaigns and retailer outreach are also key to this effort, creating the demand that will give you the sales to place orders for your next round of new products.
Cycle for Success
Although beauty is one of the most dynamic industries to work in—and certainly a lot of fun—launching a new beauty brand isn't a hobby, and it should never be taken lightly or expected to be easy. It's a business, which is why every new brand needs a vision as well as a proven strategy or blueprint for how it is going to take that vision and make it come alive.
By following the phases of the Beauty Product Development Life Cycle, potential pitfalls are discovered, consumer disconnects are connected and beauty products are created that consumers can't imagine living without. The Beauty Product Development Life Cycle helps your brand avoid the trap of "just make it pretty" or "if you build it, she will come" strategies that sell your new brand short and ultimately lead to the end of your vision. Instead, a rigorous and thorough follow through of the Beauty Product Development Life Cycle should signal the start of your successful beauty empire.

As U.S. involvement in the war approached in 1941, Rear Admiral Ben Moreell saw that the continued construction of overseas bases, which would be essential to the United States in the event of war with Japan, would be in jeopardy because the civilian crews, which were prohibited from carrying weapons by international law, were at risk from enemy attack. As a solution, he advocated institution of an organization composed of skilled construction laborers who were naval personnel. After the labor unions protested that these battalions would take work away from civilian construction workers, Moreell agreed that his units would only serve overseas, leaving stateside construction for civilian contractors.
On 2 January 1942, Congress authorized the organization of Naval Construction Battalions, the nickname "Seabee" being derived from the initials. The Seabee symbol was a flying fighting bee wearing a sailor cap and carrying a machine gun, wrench, and hammer. The slogan of the Seabees was Construimus, Batiumus (we build, we fight).
In a change from other navy units, Seabees were commanded by officers of the Civil Engineering Corps (CEC) who were trained for construction work. The 250,000 men and 8,000 officers who became Seabees were the men who had built American subways and skyscrapers. Seabees were recruited based on their civilian skills and experience in more than 60 skilled trades. Because experience was the key factor, normal physical standards applied to fighting men were relaxed. Seabees ranged in age from 18 to 50, with the average being 37. There were reports that some Seabees were as old as 60. Seabees also received higher pay than the average enlisted man; their pay was equivalent at least to that of petty officers. Because their primary mission was to build, not fight, the Seabees spent only three weeks at boot camp and received only basic small-arms training.
Seabees served in all the war theaters and took part in most of the major operations, but the majority of them served in the South Pacific Theater. They built new naval bases and additions to existing ones, docks, staging facilities, warehouses, hospitals, roads, and airstrips. Aided by such innovations as Marston mats, Quonset huts, and prefabricated buildings, Seabee units were able to construct large air bases in a matter of days. Special battalions were also organized, known as Seabee Special Battalions. The first Seabee Special Battalion was composed of enlisted men trained as stevedores and longshoremen to unload the ships in combat zones. Among other units were those that maintained the bases, repaired tires, built pontoon bridges, drove trucks, and handled the transportation and storage of fuel. Although they were not organized as a fighting unit, individual Seabees received 33 Silver Stars and 5 Navy Crosses during the war. Pamela Feltus

Beet Bundt Cake
- 1/2 cup (120 ml) canola oil
- 1 1/2 cups (340 g) packed dark brown sugar
- 2 cups (450 g) pur�ed cooked (boiled or steamed) red beets (about 3 medium-size beets)
- 1/2 cup (90 g) nondairy semisweet chocolate chips, melted
- 1 teaspoon (5 ml) vanilla extract
- 2 cups (250 g) all-purpose flour
- 2 teaspoons (9 g) baking powder (look for aluminum-free)
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- Confectioners' sugar, for dusting
Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C, or gas mark 5), and lightly oil a Bundt pan.
In a mixing bowl, cream together oil and brown sugar. Add beets, melted chocolate chips, and vanilla, and mix well.
In a separate bowl, combine flour, baking powder, and salt. Add to wet beet mixture, and stir until just combined.
Pour into prepared Bundt pan, and bake for 45 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted near the center comes out clean.
Cool in pan for 10 minutes before removing to a wire rack. Cool completely. Before serving, dust with confectioners' sugar and top with blueberries, if desired.

Compassionate Cooks' Tip Reserve 1/4 cup (55 g) of the pur�ed beets (or purée a fourth beet) to create a red/pink frosting or ganache, using confectioners' sugar and nondairy butter such as Earth Balance. For a ganache, use the water in which you cooked the beets to thin out the topping. For frosting, fluff up using a hand mixer.

Darton State College News & Events - Darton College Sophomore Diego Ramos is the 2011 National Player of the Year
News and Events
Darton College Sophomore Diego Ramos is the 2011 National Player of the Year
January 03, 2012
Darton College Head Men's Soccer Coach Bart Sasnett received an astounding email over the Christmas holiday break.
In a message sent from Uruguay by Darton College sophomore captain Diego Ramos, Sasnet read that the National Soccer Coaches Association of America chose Ramos as the 2011 Men's Junior College Division I Player of the Year.
"I almost teared up when I read his name," Sasnett said. "This is the greatest accomplishment you could ever have as a player.
"This is huge. Fifty years and 10,000 Darton athletes could go by and we may never have another national player of the year again."
Ramos, of Deerfield Beach, Fla., lead a group of 23 players designated to the 2011 NSCAA/Continental Tire Men's Junior College Division I All-America Team, including teammate Troy Tucker.
Ramos, who is currently visiting family in Uruguay during the Christmas holidays, wrote in his email, "Coach I am so excited. This is the greatest accomplishment of my life."
Darton College athletic director Mike Kiefer recognized Ramos as very deserving of the award.
"Diego's talent, work ethic, and leadership were instrumental in the success of the men's soccer team this year," Kiefer said.
Ramos helped power Darton to its second consecutive Region XVII championship and a No. 2 finish in the final NSCAA/Continental Tire national ranking. He led the Cavaliers as they clinched an undefeated conference record. The Region XVII Player of the Year, Ramos scored 17 goals and was credited with 30 assists, which led the NJCAA. His 64 points were fifth-best in the nation.
"I felt that he was the best player that I've seen play all year," Sasnett said, "and this award is very accurate."

WASHINGTON (MarketWatch) -- U.S. companies shouldn't worry about inflation if they're planning on expanding their business, President Barack Obama said Thursday. "We're not seeing a broad-based inflation trend," Obama said at the first meeting of his Council on Jobs and Competitiveness. At the same meeting, Treasury Secretary Timothy Geithner said substantial world oil reserves should help with any disruptions to oil supplies, amid worry over turmoil in oil-exporter Libya. Obama said he thinks "we'll be able to ride out the Libya situation" and that it will stabilize.

Gigabyte G1.Sniper 3 Review
PC Mark
Published: 18th June 2012 | Source: Gigabyte | Price: £335 |
PC Mark Vantage
Further demonstrating how well the system works as a unit, PC Mark Vantage gives some excellent results regardless of the CPU speed. Both stock and overclock benchmarks give some very impressive numbers, with the gaming test emphasising that, despite only having a HD7950 behind it, the Sniper 3 still trumps the rest.
PC Mark 7
In the newer PC Mark 7 the results are much closer, although still if you're planning to run at stock the Sniper 3 is the one to beat. With the overclock in place though all three of the Gigabyte boards are very tight indeed, although the Sniper does just shade it.
Most Recent Comments
With the latest Z77 chipset on board we take a look at the Gigabyte Sniper 3 and see if it matches its predecessors.
Continue Reading
Love this board, just wish it wasn't so damn expensive. With boards like the GD65 you have to ask if paying over double the price is worth it.
someone has to pay for the nextgen research, that'll be available this xmas
Gigabyte have certainly done something right with this board.
A great review, Tom - looks as though I may have to devote more attention to the Sniper boards from now on.
What a waste of I/O space. Gigabyte dun goofed.
As Josh said though the onboard video would come into play if your GPU failed.
Just a thought, imagine how sexy this board would look with dual 690s *drool
Ha, no but if said graphics card failed, not having on board video would really be annoying, as it would shut you down from your computer until you got a replacement.
And even if your primary monitor and GPU BOTH failed at the SAME time, I'm sure you've got one of those DVI to VGA things you could use, I've got at least three of them around the place.
The chances of your primary monitor and GPU both failing at the same time are pretty slim. Gigabyte (or anyone) should not be catering for scenarios like this if it means wasting I/O space with an archaic connection.
And even if your primary monitor and GPU BOTH failed at the SAME time, I'm sure you've got one of those DVI to VGA things you could use, I've got at least three of them around the place.
actually i have had this happen in the past, albeit part and parcel of a lightning strike, but nonetheless, the fact remains that BOTH my monitor AND GPU were trashed in an instant and i would have welcomed this feature back then so don't suggest "IT CAN'T HAPPEN" as it clearly can
This should've been different with the WiFi module though, as a built-in module shouldn't have made the board so cramped.
Very value board in my opinion. 300 bucks for a board with so many features. It's essentially a thunderbolt port away from the P8Z77-V Premium from ASUS for 120 bucks less. Very fast board, good for HPC as far as I've used it, the 2 Gigabit LAN ports are great, temps are fine and overclocks great. Dual BIOS is cool but doesn't match ASUS's, power cosumption is terribly inefficient, and is sort of bloated for a board. Works well with my Gentoo Linux and Windows 7 and pretty much all of its software works on at least one of those OSes. Wish it had FireWire and eSATA in the back. Shame it was E-ATX, I was going to get it crammed into the CoolerMaster 430.
Board looks rather silly, and the color scheme is weird.
and thanks... love the youtube vids, and hard work you put in to educate noobs like me!!!

This week, I ran across these collaborations between Dr. Martens and Sanrio, the company behind Hello Kitty that also happens to be celebrating its 50th anniversary this year. The Hello Kitty-themed Mary Janes and boots both feature Hello Kitty's signature bow and a Hello Kitty-Sanrio logo detail on the footbed. Check them out:

Ingenuity sprouting from the rooftops
The rooftops of Manhattan are as varied as the city itself. A glance at the city skyline reveals a myriad of shapes and colors. Look a little closer and the shapes reveal themselves to be the things we often see rooted on Manhattan buildings, such as water towers, ventilation systems and communications equipment. But, on a few rooftops, something else is taking root--literally.

Respond to Review of Voner der Vegetarische Doner
by Merciless666
Review: still riding the fast food wave, that seems to cover all of the Friedrichshain and Kreuzberg. I like it once in a while, but i never really liked eating meatless Döner either. Maybe i'm a little preoccupied, since meatless Döner was the only fast food you could get some 10-12 years ago, as a vegan kid living close to Berlin. But now the seitan doesn't make much of a difference to me. they seem to make a good business there anyways.
