Top Story on 'Rick's List'? He's Not the First to Fall
Was it just a dream? The meteoric rise, and even more precipitous fall, of Rick Sanchez happened so quickly it felt like, well, none of it actually happened. Snapped from relative broadcasting obscurity in Florida by CNN, Sanchez quickly made a strong imprint on the cable news network. His flamboyant, in-your-face style, seemingly more FOX-like in form than CNN, earned him a devout following. This led to an expanded time slot and even more air time.
After calling Jon Stewart a "bigot" recently on the radio show 'Stand Up With Pete Dominick,' among other incendiary comments, Sanchez was fired from CNN. To try to make sense of this fiasco and what it means for Rick, PopEater revisits some classic media faux pas and what happened to these silly birds who fell from their nests.
Tucker Carlson: Caught in the 'Crossfire'
Does Jon Stewart have a hate-on for CNN hosts? Stewart was once a welcome guest on CNN's flagship debate show 'Crossfire,' hosted by Tucker Carlson of the political right and Paul Begala on the left. Little did they know Stewart's Trojan Horse of comedy was full of an army of stinging criticism. An exchange of classic heated barbs left Stewart unscathed and Carlson's career in tatters.
Result? A couple of months after the episode, 'Crossfire' was axed. Why? Because of the excessive "noise level" of these kinds of shows according to the CNN president -- largely explaining his reasoning along the lines of what Stewart said. Carlson is now a conservative commentator for Fox. Begala is a researcher and college teacher.
Conan O'Brien: NBC Messes Up Late Night TV. Again
This event was so recent, does it even count as history? It's about as strange to write a historical account of Conan's departure as it is to shoot a film about the origins of Facebook. Sorry, they did what?!?
NBC was roundly criticized for lacking a succession plan when then-reigning late night TV champ Johnny Carson retired, causing a battle between contenders to the crown Jay Leno and David Letterman. To prevent a recurrence, NBC announced that Conan would replace 'The Tonight Show' host Jay a full five years before the latter comic's retirement. After deciding that his new gig, a prime time show with mediocre ratings, wasn't making him happy, Leno let his displeasure be known.
Result? The bad? Conan voluntarily gave up his dream job, not wanting to push 'The Tonight Show' to a later time slot and making it 'The Tomorrow Show.' As a result, Jay suffered dearly in the press for changing his mind. The good? Conan made $45 million from the loss ($12 million went to his staff), earned heaps of good will and brokered a deal for a new show on TBS. And Dave was able to release some of the pent up bitterness that had been boiling inside for years in positively gleeful comedic fashion.
Tom Cruise: Falling Off Oprah's Couch
Tom Cruise used to be the quintessential All-American boy. Wholesome. Winning smile. Every girl's dream. And then he went temporarily bonkers. First was his declaration of love to Katie Holmes on Oprah's couch. He really really loved Katie. We mean really. And he wanted everybody to know it. By screaming. And then jumping on Oprah's couch. And then screaming some more. And if that wasn't enough, Tom followed that up a month later with a heated interview with 'The Today Show's' Matt Lauer regarding his main area of expertise – postpartum depression. We're not making this up.
Result? Cruise's film career took a bit of a dive as his box office tallies dropped. 'Knight and Day'? Yep, his career has gone from bright shiny days to dark stormy nights. This craftiest of Hollywood survivors needs more appearances dancing on the MTV Video Music Awards and comedic films like 'Tropic Thunder' with Ben Stiller to rejuvenate his reputation.
Joaquin Phoenix: A Lot of People Move from Music to Acting. But the Other Way Around?
In the long wacky history of live television, a lot of weird stuff has happened. And this may be among the weirdest. Joaquin Phoenix, star of 'Walk the Line' and 'Gladiator,' was absolutely out of his mind during an interview on Letterman. Best word to describe their encounter? Awkward. Luckily comedy-maestro Dave was able to spin the strangeness into tons o' laughs. After declaring that he was giving up acting for rap (!), it seemed Phoenix was lost.
Result? Phoenix was in the Hollywood wilds for months after this broadcast. Then 'I'm Still Here,' a mockumentary directed by Casey Affleck (brother of, well, you know who), premiered at the Toronto International Film Festival, putting Phoenix's erratic behavior into question. Was it real? Was it an act? Now it seems like the second. We'll see.
Bill Maher and Russell Brand: Too Soon. Too Soon!
9-11 was a horrific national tragedy that scarred this fine country. Afterward, there was an obvious need to discuss America's future. But right away? Not so much.
Bill Maher, on his ironically titled show 'Politically Correct with Bill Maher,' spoke about the terrorists in a way that was incredibly difficult to hear. Brand, working for MTV in London at the time, wore an unfortunate costume right after the attacks.
Result? 'Politically Incorrect' was canceled either due to this controversy (according to Maher) or insufficient advertising (ABC). Maher now hosts 'Real Time with Bill Maher' on HBO. Brand was fired from MTV, moved to the US, starred in Hollywood comedies and became engaged to Katy Perry. Katy, if you decide to fire Russell from this relationship, please let us know.
Dr. Laura: There are No "N's" in Laura
'The Dr. Laura Program' host Laura Schlessinger ran face-first into a media wall when she dropped the N-bomb not once, not twice, but eleven times (!) to a caller during her radio show. To defuse the controversy, Laura went on soon-to-be-retired Larry King's TV program to defend her comments.
Result? During the 'Larry King Live' interview, Laura promised she wouldn't renew her radio contract at year's end.
George Carlin: Comedic Provocateur Says the Words You Can't Say on Television
Carlin's groundbreaking 'Seven Words You Can Never Say on Television' routine was no gaffe but instead a sideswipe on FCC speech laws. Carlin made comedic history with this much-lauded routine, probably one of the biggest artistic freedom of expression cases post-Lenny Bruce.
Result? A radio broadcast of the routine eventually led to a decision by the Supreme Court that helped establish the degree that the federal government can regulate speech on the airwaves. Dr. Laura would be proud.
So What Does This All Mean for Rick Sanchez?
Imploding publicly live, or on tape, doesn't necessarily mean endsville to your career. Sanchez is toxic and won't be on air regularly anytime soon. But as these examples show, this may not be the last we see of 'Rick's List.' Although some of you might want it to be.
Prediction? Sanchez will apologize for his comments, go on tour for his new book 'Conventional Idiocy' (I think I smell a new chapter), let the ruckus die down and get picked up by a broadcaster desperate for ratings. Give it 6 to 12 months. Memories are short, people like to forgive and hey, everybody loves a comeback story.

As usual, the media has distorted the facts to suit their storyline. Rick Sanchez was NOT popular, his ratings were tanking and CNN was probably looking for a reason to fire him. Perhaps his criminal past came to light, because I'm sure CNN, with their abysmal research , didn't know about that when they hired him.

Fire Sanchez but then turn around and give a show to Eliot Spitzer, the disgraced NY ex-governor???? Yeah, I really want to tune into CNN & watch that skeleton wax faux e very night. Parker is good - she deserves her own show WITHOUT that arrogant washed-up politician!

- Saturday 09 OctoberBy john
Bill Maher is the worst person on Tv now that Rick Sanchez is gone, I see Rick is now doing the apology tour, what a hypocrite.
I dont see how Rick can walk with the weight of that chip on his shoulder. Cnn has got to be the worst cable show on TV. Why isnt Anderson Cooper reporting live from Hungary on the toxic chemical spill? Wheres the accountability? The dying wildlife? the hysteria? Hes no journalist, best a tv tabloid reporter.
Andersons lost all credibilty, as has CNN.

Well, who is next in line to be fired? Guess we better check with Fox News. They seem to think they know it all. One day the ax is going to fall on that channel!
Too far to the right guys. Would someone help Fox find the way back to the middle!

WASHINGTON (AP) -- Newt Gingrich says Mitt Romney is the weakest GOP front-runner since 1920, but his sizeable campaign fund allows him to run well in races where his rivals don't have the resources to campaign.
The former House speaker told "Fox News Sunday" that Romney's money allows him to buy plenty of advertising time that puts him ahead of the pack at first, but his rivals catch up "pretty rapidly" as they campaign.
Gingrich says Romney isn't stronger because the conservative Republican base doesn't support him.
Gingrich has been campaigning hard in Alabama and Mississippi ahead of Tuesday's primaries, where he's hoping to add to the wins he's had in South Carolina and the state he represented in Congress for 20 years, Georgia.

Hey Georgia voters - How can it be that Gingrich is good enough to be president but not good enough to have kept his Congressional seat ? Recycling discarded politicians doesn't ever work out - think Tricky Dick Nixon.

Mitt is just a obama in sheep clothing...Who do you recommend .
nicholson 3 years, 6 months ago
Hmmm, if Romney (with the most delegates) is such a weak candidate, what does that make Gingrich? A vindictive, jealous, sore loser who will never get the nomination.

Punks in the Gym was first climbed by Wolfgang Güllich... It was the first 8b+ in the world and still known as a world-class test-piece. Sometimes referred to as the "ultimate examination in climbing" because of the intriguing mixture of power and delicate technique required to climb this route.
My first climbing trip ever was to Mt Arapiles - Many of my first memories and climbing lessons occurred and therefore this place will always have a special significance to me. I always used to walk past Punks in the Gym and stare up at the smooth orange bulges... And of course I always dreamed of climbing this route, but never thought I would be able to, and never actually dared to try. Until a couple years ago....
At first I still thought it would be impossible, it was only when I discovered a more direct sequence to what people usually do, that I began to feel like I might have a chance - It eliminated an, almost hands free, rest mid-way up the climb, turning Punks into a very sustained crimp-fest, rather than two boulder problems. However, it made every individual move feel achievable for me, and I began to think that maybe, just maybe I could climb this beautiful and historic route. At this point I started to invest some serious energy into the route... I was not just dabbling anymore, and I also began to care about climbing this piece of rock.
Since then I have dedicated a lot of time, energy and resources into Punks. I came extremely close to linking this sequence of moves together, countless times and then either ran out of time, had bad luck with weather or simply was not quite able to pull it off. Like any other hard climb that I have worked on, Punks in the Gym put me through a full range of emotions. It caused me a huge amount of frustration, forced me to examine myself and my motivations for climbing. Before heading down to Australia on this last trip, I seriously debated the amount of effort I have invested, and whether it was really worth it... Eventually, I came to the realization that this route does hold a special importance to me. Therefore, I chose to sacrifice other goals and put a month into training specifically for this route. As a result, I felt much stronger this year. However, it was still a struggle... both mentally and physically.
All the effort payed off, when I finally managed to make the first female ascent of this historic route... Clipping the chains on this route felt amazing - It meant more to me than I ever thought it would. I had almost expected this moment to be an anti-climax, because I had spent so much time on this route. But it was the opposite - I was in disbelief, totally ecstatic and could not sleep at all that night because I was still so excited... I just kept staring at the full moon repeating to myself "I just climbed Punks! - Its done..."
Now, slowly the reality is starting to sink in, this journey has come to an end... It is time to move on. I feel incredibly relieved that it is over, yet at the same time, lost and a little unsure what the future holds... It is exciting though, and I am excited to begin again.
Thanks to all my sponsors, who have helped me achieve this dream of mine, and to my friends who held my rope for countless hours and put up with my frustrated rants... I could not have done it without all of you!!!

My choice in working with linux is whether or not it fits the bill. Linux is much more rock solid than windows. I just look at the uptime of any linux vs. windows machine for a warm fuzzy.
I wanted to implement RAID-1 on all my machines after losing a hard drive. Well, didn't take much effort to get that setup. You're probably saying "you could have bought a RAID card". Well, I didn't have to. I poured a little sweat into finding procedures and I poured what I would have spent on that card into by budget to buying bigger hard drives, and getting more bang-for-the-buck. Now I have a configuration that is more flexible and usable than a simple RAID card would have done. And besides, most of those things needs windows drivers to run anyway, because they are software RAID of their own. Bah!
I have sent in patches to other projects, where I may have chipped in $0.01 worth of effort, but adding that up with all the other little fixes people are doing, and things add up. The effect is multiplicative. M$ and their attitude of knocking competition off the market doesn't lead to better software. If M$ opened up their software code base, many in the Linux community would welcome the healthy competition. But they won't. Instead, we are in healthy competition between different distros, along with components from the BSD community. Thus, any GNU/Linux distribution contains BSD components, GNU components, and more.
To me the best software wins, and that pulled me into Linux several years ago.
Linux usage is growing by leaps and bounds according to all the market data that I have seen, and as a professional in the avionics field, I have seen a lot of it.
and nobody says you have to license things under GPL, as long as you don't use GPL-ed code, so i really don't see what all the fuss is about.
FPGA or any alternate solution as ARM, uClinux with a fully paid licence for a micro kernel is the solution to avoid all this useless nagging around lame attempts from some of us to get all for nothing.
What could lead linux to defeat versus microsoft is the dust made around gpl licence that makes people not being able to understand that everything with linux must not have to be free.
The sad part is that some of the linux community are still in confusion about gpl, open source and often open source means free in people's mind.
If i write something i'm not supposed to release the code for the reason i could use aside of the thing i wrote some gpl code. What i'm supposed to communicate is the sources of what is gpl inside my work nothing more, seems that it's not yet clear enough.
I.e : i wrote my crap regardless if it is or not nice, i designed my crappy front-ends as well, i've been surprised to read someone pretending to be a lawyer or advocate or something, that i have to release my work including my graphic design :lol: now where are the cameras ? and what are all those f* parasits ?
Linux was a funny and pleasant experience anyway and i don't blame linux, it's fun for hobbyists.

- 1/2 cup sugar
- 3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
- 1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1/8 teaspoon ground nutmeg
- 6 cups thinly sliced, peeled cooking apples (6 medium)
- 1/2 cup raisins
- 1/2 cup Caramel Sauce (above)
- Pastry for Double-Crust Pie
- 1 egg yolk
- 1/4 teaspoon water
- 3 or 4 drops red food coloring
- 3 or 4 drops green food coloring
Companion recipe: Basic Pie Pastry
FOR SAUCE: In a heavy small saucepan mix brown sugar and cornstarch. Stir in water. Stir in half-and-half or light cream and light corn syrup. Cook and stir till bubbly (mixture may appear curdled). Cook and stir for 2 minutes more. Remove from heat; stir in margarine or butter and vanilla. Cover surface and cool without stirring.
FOR PIE: In a large mixing bowl combine sugar, flour, cinnamon, and nutmeg. Add apples and raisins. Pour 1/2 cup of the caramel sauce over apple mixture; reserve remaining sauce to serve with pie.

For pastry cutouts, use a small hors d'oeuvre cutter or sharp knife to cut out apples and leaves from pastry scraps. Brush top crust with water. Arrange pastry cutouts on top crust. Mix egg yolk with 1/4 teaspoon water. Divide yolk mixture in half. Add red food coloring to one half and green food coloring to the other half; mix well. with a clean, small paintbrush, paint pastry cutouts with 2 coats of color.

While Twitter may have lost some of its luster, news about the microblogging service is still getting people exited, even if it's not exactly accurate. Over the weekend the news of a new video feature to be introduced by Twitter, despite lacking in details and most people being skeptical about it, made a few rounds before being completely debunked by the site's cofounder Biz Stone. Twitter of course isn't introducing a video feature anytime soon and this shouldn't come as any surprise to anyone even slightly familiar with the microblogging service's ways of doing things.
The story went that Twitter was thinking about introducing the possibility to add short videos to the tweets from mobile phones or computers to add a sort of pseudo-live video-tweeting component to the service. This would be done so that the site would regain its status as the hippest social network of the moment. There are already services offering similar capabilities, like Tweetube and Twideo, and, even though they're not exactly as popular as Twitpic for example, it could be conceived that Twitter was at least considering the possibility.
Of course, there was one simple way of avoiding all of the speculation, simply asking Twitter about it, in which case the answer might have been something along the lines of: "Haven't read the piece but no video hosting. 140 characters of text including spaces. You know the drill!," which is what Biz Stone told Mashable when asked about the story.
Twitter has been quite reluctant in adding new features, choosing to rely on third-party services to add new capabilities to its core functionality. There are a multitude of desktop and mobile clients, a number of popular photo-hosting services and so on, all built by outside parties. Even some of the features built into the service, like @-replies or the upcoming retweet feature, have been pioneered by its users before being adopted by the site. There's also another reason why Twitter would be reluctant to introduce a service that would effectively compete with third-party offerings or favor one provide over the other: it most likely wants to avoid a situation similar to the Bit.ly one, as the URL shortener chosen by default by Twitter now controls some 70 percent of the market, a move that led to some criticism.

Associated Press
POSTED: 1:30 a.m. HST, Sep 8, 2010
NEW YORK » Venus Williams arrived at this U.S. Open with a bum knee. She hadn't played a match in more than two months. She hadn't reached the semifinals at any Grand Slam tournament in more than a year.
And now? Williams is two victories away from her first U.S. Open title since 2001.
The No. 3-seeded Williams overcame nine double-faults and a total of 33 unforced errors to beat reigning French Open champion Francesca Schiavone 7-6 (5), 6-4 in the quarterfinals last night.
"I want to be in the final, because then obviously it's just one more step," the 30-year-old Williams said. "But I'm just focused on the semis, and I don't get too excited unless the tournament is over."
Next up for Williams is a semifinal against defending champion Kim Clijsters, who ran her U.S. Open winning streak to 19 matches by eliminating French Open runner-up Sam Stosur 6-4, 5-7, 6-3. Clijsters and Williams have split their 12 previous meetings, but the Belgian won the most recent four, including in the fourth round in New York in 2009.
"Venus is a great competitor. She's been playing some really great tennis these last few matches," Clijsters said. "I look forward to it. It's a challenge."
Williams is the only American singles player left in the 2010 tournament, because the last of the country's 15 men in the field, 20th-seeded Sam Querrey, lost 7-6 (9), 6-7 (5), 7-5, 4-6, 6-4 to No. 25 Stanislas Wawrinka of Switzerland earlier yesterday.
Rafael Nadal won his 18th consecutive Grand Slam match by beating fellow Spaniard Feliciano Lopez 6-3, 6-4, 6-4.
Wawrinka, who joins Roger Federer to give Switzerland two quarterfinalists at a major for the first time, takes on No. 12 Mikhail Youzhny of Russia for a semifinal berth. Youzhny eliminated unseeded Tommy Robredo of Spain 7-5, 6-2, 4-6, 6-4.

A new Target Superstore opens today across 580 in Dublin, Target's second store there although a few years ago it had considered Staples Ranch or even more central sites in Pleasanton. Along with the Stoneridge Creek retirement community, construction also is under way across El Charro in Livermore, where Paragon Outlet Mall plans to open 120-160 upscale retail stores by Thanksgiving 2012.
Except for Stoneridge Creek, however, Staples Ranch remains desolate with only some grading under way to extend Stoneridge Drive to El Charro. Gone is the 37-acre auto mall that was going to turn Pleasanton's eastern border into a prosperous center for luxury car sales, along with the high-end sales taxes that would go with them. Gone, too, is a 7-acre retail center to serve the grocery store and service business needs of those living nearby. Now also gone, apparently, are plans for a multi-million-dollar, four-rink ice center that a subsidiary of the San Jose Sharks planned to build on Staples. Don Gralnek, a vice president and general counsel of Silicon Valley Sports & Entertainment LLC, who represented San Jose Arena Management (SJAM), a Sharks subsidiary, is gone, along with his legal sidekick and fellow ice rink promoter Pat Kernan, who moved out of town after his term of office as a Pleasanton school board member expired.
Despite many hours of speeches, presentations, public hearings and slide shows to city and civic organizations, Gralnek's enthusiasm for the 7-acre, two-story ice rink was not shared by everyone. As some on the City Council and City Manager Nelson Fialho pressed harder for financial information, Gralnek became harder to find. The city could never quite get the Sharks to the table in committing to a ground lease that would also require long-term operating guarantees and money up-front for the rest of the 17-acre sports and public park the Sharks had agreed to build.
Certainly the economy put brakes on expansion plans by the Sharks' SJAM, which continues to operate public ice arenas in San Jose, Fremont and Oakland. But an even greater concern was that the ice arena could become a white elephant if SJAM ever encountered financial difficulties, which it now has. It's to the city's (and taxpayers') good fortune that officials were cautious before the first shovelful of dirt was lifted on Staples. The 7-acre site is still earmarked for the ice arena, but with no movement by the Sharks, it will likely be consolidated into the full 17 acres of sports fields and parkland as was originally planned.
The rests of Staples is still master planned for an auto mall and retail center. Target's no longer an option but there are other large retail stores that could fit there, conveniently located at the new El Charro and Isabel Road interchanges at I-580. One interested retailer might be Home Depot, which lost an earlier bid to build a second, larger, upscale store on the still-empty property at Bernal Avenue and Stanley Boulevard. Or, a Wal-Mart Superstore?

Those looking for all-natural ways of preserving the skin's youthful appearance may soon have another option to turn to as researchers have shown light-emitting diodes (LEDs) and a green tea extract-based cream may help reduce wrinkles.
Although phototherapy has been used to treat skin imperfections for many years, scientists from Germany have demonstrated that combining it with antioxidant-rich green tea cream may help eliminate potentially harmful reactive oxygen species produced by light therapy.
During the course of the study, the researchers applied a daily combination of LED light and green tea lotion to the wrinkles of a human volunteer for one month and found that it resulted in "less pronounced wrinkle levels, shorter wrinkle valleys and [a more] juvenile complexion."
Based on these results, they say the experiment has opened a new way to effective, safe and non-invasive rejuvenation process. The study has also contributed to the body of knowledge on the impact of reactive oxygen species on cellular aging.
Individuals interested in boosting their immunity and a preserving youthful appearance may also turn to antioxidant nutritional supplements.

What to Do During Flight Layovers
Here are some tips on how to while away your time during a flight layover:
If you brought your laptop or notebook with you, and provided that the

Ding Tai Fung Shanghai Dim Sum
Ding Tai Fung Shanghai Dim Sum is located in a busy Markham strip mall 35-minutes drive from downtown Toronto - and it's well worth the trek. It's difficult to find good parking here and when you finally get to the restaurant, there is always a queue, especially on weekends. These inconveniences are almost certain, but for the exceptional food experience that's to follow, they are so very worth it.
Ding Tai Fung is the only restaurant in the GTA specializing in Shanghai dim sum (also known as Xiaolongbao or "little basket buns"). Differing from the widely available Cantonese-style dumplings and buns, the Shanghai variety is generally larger, brothier and focuses on a variety of fresh ingredients and big flavour.
The restaurant is clean, austere and is clearly all about the food. Closely packed tables leave just enough space for the servers to squeeze in and out with the orders, while a bevy of cooks behind the counter rapidly prepare the dim sum for baking, steaming and frying.
You wont see any dim sum carts at Ding Tai Fung, everything is ordered à la carte and made as it is ordered. Their menu, offering over 145 dishes, is as extensive as it is authentic, with their only other branch is located in Taiwan.
It's obvious that the kitchen and wait staff are used to working at a high level of efficiency. Even at peak times, orders arrive in less than 10 minutes, patron turnover is brisk and the food and tea is always fresh.
Our meal started with some piping hot Jasmine Tea and Steamed Chive and Meat Dumplings ($5.99). These large, crested dumplings are so big they require some effort to manage with chopsticks. If you can get one of these in your mouth, expect an explosion of succulence.
Carefully mixed inside the dumpling with the garlic, chive and savoury beef is warm broth that adds another dimension of taste and texture. The skin is firm enough to hold the broth yet soft, without being soggy.
Customers also have the option of ordering the very similar Steamed Vegetarian Dumplings ($5.99) which are equally delectable and are best eaten with the soup spoon so you don't lose any of the delicious broth.
Up next were Sticky Rice and Meat Dumplings ($5.99) which are stuffed with glutinous rice and bits of stir-fried beef. These are partially open so you can see the grains if rice peeping out and are like a sweetish risotto in a thick wrapper. They're yummy, but rather heavy, so we ended up taking most of ours home.
Another reason for making the trip up to Ding Tai Fung is to try their famed Green Onion Pancake ($3.49). Perfectly pan-toasted and firm on the outside yet soft on the inside, these large cakes are meals in themselves but were so good they were quickly consumed and definitely a must-try.
Shanghai-style Pan-Fried Minced Pork Buns ($5.99) look similar to white Cantonese style steamed buns but are rounder and their bottoms are pan-seared with sesame seeds; a nice touch. While these were tasty, we found that there was too much bread and not enough pork and filling inside.
While the dim sum is served with slivers of ginger, the dishes are so full of flavour that they don't need to be dipped in soy sauce even though this, together with chili oil, is readily available at the table.
For dessert, we had Steamed Sesame Paste buns ($5.50) which were simply sublime and unlike anything we have tasted before. We know dessert is customarily served cold but there's something heavenly about the warm gooey goodness of these toasted and steamed buns that is extremely satisfying and simply the best way to end an excellent meal.
With its amazing flavours, consistent quality and wide variety of dishes, Ding Tai Fung is most definitely worth a visit and was, for us, a revelation in the richness and variety of flavours of Shanghai-style dim sum.

It's not listed on their home page:
The food looks and sounds good but there are tons of places to get xiaolongbao in the GTA. Also, there are definitely more branches of this restaurant around the world besides those the author has listed.
Research. It helps.
There are still places using carts, but carts is a Cantonese thing; you won't find Shanghai dim sum restaurants using carts.
Her explanation, "Same name, different owner."
Shanghai Style dimsum is not widely available in Toronto. Some bakeries and Cantonese dim sum places like Asian Legend may offer 2 or 3 similar dishes to the soup dumplings but not the 26 varieties that DTF has.
It is impossible that they have a same name restaurant in Taiwan because the name has been registered for copy rights. Where did the manager say the restaurant is located in Taiwan??
if the food is as good as this review claims, i'll do it instead of bearing with the usual typical asian legends offering.
it's too bad they're not the same as the michelin 1 stared DTF, but like everything chinese, it's an imitation of another DTF brand. (it's okay, i'm chinese, i can say that :P)
Quite a tangent, but the Metro Square porkchop/chicken bento is what I crave when I visit my parents! $7 and it tastes pretty much like how they make it in Taiwan.
I've only been to DTF Toronto once. It was good, but doesnt really stand out in my mind. It is nothing comparable to the real thing in Taipei where the service is absolutely top notch - you will never see the bottom of your tea cup. I would go there like 3 or 4 times a week when I am visiting Taiwan. :)
As for this DTF having another location in Taipei, it is possible, but not under the same name. A lot of ex-DTF chefs sometimes would leave and open their own xiaolongbao restaurants.
- First Markham Place isn't a strip mall.
- parking depends on what day you go. if you go on a weekday parking should be fine
-Ding Tai Fung is not the only restaurant in the GTA specializing in Shanghai dim sum. in fact there's another restaurant in fmp that serves shanghainese cuisine also
- Xiaolongbao is a type of dumpling, not a word to describe shanghainese dim sum in general
but aside from that, I agree that the food is very good, and it's nice to see that restaurants in the suburbs are being reviewed as there are alot of good restaurants especially in Markham
Beef rolled in pancakes were very dry inside with crusty peking duck sauce, but the pancakes saturated in oil. The only thing that stood out was the noodle soup with braised beef, mostly because of the perfect chewy handmade noodles.
Also, they only have that awful artificial pink vinegar available for dipping. For a place that makes their own dumplings they should provide the authentic zingy brown kind.
I also found the best thing was the noodles in beef broth. Really good chewy handmade noodles, and the broth was clean-tasting and didn't have a lick of grease.
This is a nice place. A bit pricey. It's not a bad place to start; if I didn't have my much more knowledgeable parents taking me places, I wouldn't know where else to go.
I'm not an expert ... but is this really considered dim sum, even Shanghai style? I was under the impression that dim sum is mostly Cantonese.
This place cannot compare to the real ones from TW. I just bought takeout few days ago, had a bug in my rice!!~~
This would never happen in the real ones.
It explains clearly that this restaurant has nothing to do with Din Tai Fung from Taiwan. Hence the different spelling of the name.
This is Ding tai fung. Din vs Ding

Blue Ribbon Bacon Festival will be held at the Scottish Rite Consistory on Saturday,
February 27th, 2010
November 10, 2009 (Des Moines, IA) – Blue Ribbon Bacon Festival, America's premier bacon festival, announces plans to become bigger and better in 2010. "Earlier this year, the Iowa Bacon Board made a commitment to the bacon community that our festival would accommodate more Baconphiles and offer more sizzle. So, that's exactly what we are going to do," says event cofounder and bacon connoisseur, Brooks Reynolds.
To accomplish the board's vision the Blue Ribbon Bacon Festival will move to the Scottish Rite Consistory, 519 Park Street in downtown Des Moines. The larger space will allow for additional attendance, more bacon purveyors, live music, comprehensive bacon education and better acoustics for 'Ohhhhh, Bacon' cheers. "Over the year I've toured bacon festivals across this great country, spoken with industry experts and developed relationships and ideas that will allow us to take 2010's festival to new heights," assures Reynolds.
Reynolds said he has not forgotten the festival's roots. "The Iowa Bacon Board owes a lot of gratitude to Jeff Bruning and Full Court Press for hosting the event in 2008 and 2009. El Bait Shop and High Life Lounge will always be the original home of the bacon festival, and this is why I'm happy to announce it will be hosting the official Blue Ribbon Bacon Festival After-Party. The after-party will allow us to celebrate bacon into the night."
What started as one man's passion for "all things bacon" has evolved into America's premier bacon festival. In 2007, Brooks Reynolds of Des Moines gathered fellow bacon lovers and formed the Iowa Bacon Board with the mission of improving the enjoyment of all things bacon. Informal meetings of the group had been held for years with weekend retreats at Spirit Lake where each bacon fanatic would bring at least two pounds of bacon for consumption over a two-day period. On March 1st,
2008, after several meetings between the Iowa Bacon Board, Full Court Press and In Any Event the festival was born: a day dedicated to nothing but Bacon.
Facts :
- What – Third Annual Blue Ribbon Bacon Festival
- When – Saturday, February 27th, 10am – 4pm
- Where – Scottish Rite Consistory, 519 Park Street, Des Moines, IA
- Ticket Availability – To Be Announced
- Consumption – 583 lbs of bacon was consumed at the 2nd Annual Bacon Festival in 2009.
- Competition – Manni Balignasay is the back-to-back Blue Ribbon Bacon Eating Champion in 2008 & 2009.
- Bacon Showcase – In previous years the following bacon brands have been showcased: Eden Farms, Farmland, Hormel, Vande Rose Farms, Falls Brand, Polehnas, Django
The Bacon Board of Directors – Suzanne Reynolds Arnold, Seth Hall, Mark Pederson, Marshall Porter, Tom Porter, Brad Proctor, David Proctor, John Tiffany, Kevin Tiffany and Brooks Reynolds.

Tomato Rhapsody: A Fable of Love, Lust, and Forbidden Fruitby Adam Schell
Synopses & Reviews
Publisher Comments:
A village in Tuscany is the setting for this joyous debut—a novel that defies all our expectations as it puts a fresh, clever, captivating spin on the age-old tale of forbidden love. Rich in literary delights, filled with spectacular wordplay, and rife with the bawdy humor of Shakespeares comedies, Tomato Rhapsody is the almost-true tale of how the tomato came to Italy—at once a brilliantly inventive fable of love, lust, and longing, and a dazzling feast for the imagination.
This is a story born from love—a forbidden love—between Davido, an Ebreo tomato farmer, and Mari, a beautiful Catholic girl.…But its not only Davido and Mari who have secrets of the heart. Everyone around them yearns for something—from Davidos grandfather, who tenderly cultivates the tomato plant he stole on his voyages with Columbus, to Maris villainous stepfather, whose eye is trained on his stepdaughters virginity and his neighbors land.
Caught in the midst of these passions and machinations is a village full of eccentrics who speak in rhyme, celebrate the Feast of the Drunken Saint, and live a life untouched by the passage of time. The schemes and dreams of these men and women are about to change as what is forbidden becomes too delicious to resist. Tradition, religion, and good taste collide unforgettably in a story about the courage to pursue love and tomato sauce at all costs.
"It takes a lot of confidence to encroach on Shakespearean territory, but Schell displays sufficient moxie in this delectable debut. The lush Tuscan countryside is the predictable yet appropriate setting of his sixteenth-century romp through a multitude of humorous scenarios involving both forbidden love and the introduction of the tomato into the heart, soul, and stomach of the Italian populace. At the core of the novel is a deceptively simple boy-meets-girl plot featuring a lovelorn Jewish tomato farmer and the beautiful Catholic daughter of a devious olive magnate. Of course, anyone who knows their Shakespeare knows that the course of true love never runs smoothly, and Schell displays the finesse of a master chef as he spices up the story with a delicious array of humorous subplots — ranging from the bawdy to the sweet — guaranteed to appeal to discerning literary palates." Booklist
"From the very beginning of Schell's debut novel, a would-be Shakespearean fable set in a 16th-century Tuscan village, food lust takes center stage. While cruel-hearted olive tycoon Giuseppe and his underling, Benito, forage for truffles, the Jewish farmer Davido worships the tomato plants on his farm: 'the plant's fragrance... transcended his olfactory organs to purify his heart and cleanse his mind.' When the new priest allows Davido's 'love apples' into town for the first time, life starts to get complicated. For one, the stepdaughter of our villain, Giuseppe, falls for the already betrothed Davido — an outcast besides, due to his station and religion. Bawdy hijinks coded in ribald Italian reach a climax at the village's Feast of the Drunken Saint donkey race, a jarring spin on Shakespeare's more tawdry rhymes. Attempts at a similarly Shakespearean cast of characters (the novel opens with an actual cast of characters) instead result in a silly collection of one-dimensional characters who keep the tale moving until the fate of our star-crossed lovers, and of tomato sauce, are predictably resolved. (June)" Publishers Weekly (Copyright Reed Business Information, Inc.)
In this extravagant, inventive debut novel, love's heart beats tomato red under a sultry Tuscan sun.
About the Author
Adam Schell holds a master's degree in creative writing from Antioch University. He played inside linebacker at Northwestern University, has made two award-winning short films, worked as a screenwriter, directed commercials, cooked professionally, picked grapes and olives in Tuscany, got fired as a food critic, then moved to the left coast with his wife, where he works as a yoga teacher and writes.

Environmental Assessment
Multimedia, Multipollutant Field Study to Establish Levels of Toxic Contaminants in Air, Soil, Sediment, Water and Agricultural Products from a Model Municipal Waste Combustor

Report Information
In the past, assessments have been directed only at the public health risks posed by stack and fugitive emissions of pollutants from municipal waste combustors (MWCs) by direct inhalation exposure. Recently, the U.S. EPA has developed methodologies to extend risk assessment to a consideration of indirect exposure pathways in addition to the direct inhalation pathway. A better understanding of the multipollutant and multiple exposure pathways of emissions from waste combustors is needed in order to improve the overall assessment of the risks to humans and the environment. The study will provide a preliminary determination of the overall risks associated with MWCs. As part of the overall approach, a field evaluation of a MWC was selected in Rutland, Vermont. During a one-year period, a four station ambient air monitoring network for pollutants will be operated by the State of Vermont. The purpose of the monitoring is to ensure that the pollution controls and regulatory requirements imposed on the facility are sufficient to prevent adverse impacts on human health or the environment.

CAPE CANAVERAL, Fla. -- Man has come light years in his quest to explore what's beyond our planet.
In the more than 50 years since man first entered space, we've gone from timidly entering orbit to now using privately owned rockets, like this one from SpaceX, to supply the International Space Station.
First Coast Living's Nick Loren and I got a chance to take a look at the Saturn 5 rocket that pushed astronauts to the moon. It includes five of the largest rocket engines ever built.
"That is what it took to get them to the moon. Isn't that insane?" said Loren.
NASA's Deputy Chief Technologist Jim Adams, whose father helped design the lunar lander, also came with us to explain the science behind getting a man on the moon and getting Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin back to their command module.
"You see the silver and black? It would separate from the gold piece and another rocket ..." Adams said.
"Another little rocket in there?" said Nick.
" ... would push the two of them into space to rendezvous with the command module, which would then thrust them home," said Adams.
The next big development was the space shuttle, which while successful, Adams said it won't work for NASA's future goals, like going to an asteroid or going to Mars.
"We are in the process of developing a new rocket and a new capsule and a new multipurpose crew exploration that will enable us to go deeper into space," Adams said.
Nick and I also got a private tour of several other places around Kennedy Space Center, but due to restrictions, we were not allowed to film any of it.
I was allowed to take and tweet pictures as we went.
We went into the Vehicle Assembly Building, where the space shuttle was built. The fire trenches of the shuttle launch pad and the beach house astronauts used during the Apollo days.
Those pictures are only on Twitter!

After the Hector
The Scottish Pioneers of Nova Scotia and Cape Breton, 1773-1852
This is the first fully documented and detailed account, produced in recent times, of one of the greatest early migrations of Scots to North America. The arrival of the Hector in 1773, with nearly 200 Scottish passengers, sparked a huge influx of Scots to Nova Scotia and Cape Breton. Thousands of Scots, mainly from the Highlands and Islands, streamed into the province during the late 1700s and the first half of the nineteenth century.
Lucille Campey traces the process of emigration and explains why Scots chose their different settlement locations in Nova Scotia and Cape Breton. Much detailed information has been distilled to provide new insights on how, why and when the province came to acquire its distinctive Scottish communities. Challenging the widely held assumption that this was primarily a flight from poverty, After the Hector reveals how Scots were being influenced by positive factors, such as the opportunity for greater freedoms and better livelihoods.
The suffering and turmoil of the later Highland Clearances have cast a long shadow over earlier events, creating a false impression that all emigration had been forced on people. Hard facts show that most emigration was voluntary, self-financed and pursued by people expecting to improve their economic prospects. A combination of push and pull factors brought Scots to Nova Scotia, laying down a rich and deep seam of Scottish culture that continues to flourish. Extensively documented with all known passenger lists and details of over three hundred ship crossings, this book tells their story.
"The saga of the Scots who found a home away from home in Nova Scotia, told in a straightforward, unembellished, no-nonsense style with some surprises along the way. This book contains much of vital interest to historians and genealogists."
- Professor Edward J. Cowan, University of Glasgow
"...a well-written, crisp narrative that provides a useful outline of the known Scottish settlements up to the middle of the 19th century...avoid[s] the sentimental 'victim & scapegoat approach' to the topic and instead has provided an account of the attractions and mechanisms of settlement...."

MP for Hornsey and Wood Green
Watch the rolling news as it turns into Sunday's political programs. Anxiously watching as to the media handling of Mark Oaten's fall from grace. My boy Chris is on Andrew Marr and does really well – and inevitably the Mark Oaten issue is first on the list of questions. What can you say? Except what Chris said – that the guy has apologised to his wife, apologised to his constituents and to the party.
I don't know why he took such terrible risks. An affair – with a man or a woman – is no longer the end of the political road. But the three-in-a-bed with a rent boy combined with the shots of his leadership campaign launch showing him, his wife and their two children was a truly bad move. I just hope he gets the time and privacy he needs to put it back together for the sake of his family. The party will survive fine – but his home life is what matters now.
I phoned round some more key people in London for Chris Huhne's leadership campaign. Everyone was wondering what next? Hopefully – policy ideas. Still finding a real hunger from people to know about Chris. My own view is that playing safe as a third party is a hiding to nothing and that with Chris we will have the best chance to move on to the next stage. Well – I would say that – wouldn't I?

I am experiencing problems with generating 3D camera views in Chief Architect. Either nothing at all appears in the view and it displays a white screen, an error message displays, the program crashes, or the view generates, but it doesn't look correct.
How can I resolve these problems?
In a 3D intensive software program such as a Chief Architect product, you may encounter a variety of problems in your 3D camera views if your system is not up-to-date.
Generally, these issues can be resolved by simply updating the driver for your computer's video card to the latest available version which is compatible with your operating system. This can often be done for free on most video card manufacturer's websites.
For Mac users, the drivers for the hardware are part of the OS X operating system so it is important to make sure that your system is up-to-date.
Please bear in mind, though, that if you are running the software on an unsupported operating system for your version of the program, or if your video card does not meet our minimum system requirements, the suggestions in this article are unlikely to resolve the problem.
This article describes the basic steps for troubleshooting these issues to try and determine what the cause may be:
If you do not currently have Chief Architect installed, in Windows you can browse to the Control Panel, navigate to System and Security, System, then click the link for Device Manager. In the Device Manager window, expand the Display Adapters category to see the video card(s) present on this system.
You can double-click any adapter listed here to obtain further information on the device, such as the Driver Date.
The Device Manager has an "Update Driver" option which can be used to search for drivers that are specifically signed by Microsoft, however it is recommended to consult with your computer's manufacturer for driver download recommendations.
For PC Users:
It is recommended that you check your computer manufacturer's website for the latest drivers. If they do not provide the drivers they will have links to the appropriate manufacturer to download the drivers that are compatible with your system.
For more information visit the support page of your manufacturer's website.
For Mac Users:
Apple's operating system OS X comes pre-installed on your Mac and contains the drivers needed for your hardware.
To make sure that your hardware drivers are up-to-date you must make sure that your operating system is up-to-date by navigating to Apple> About This Mac and clicking on the Software Update button.
If your Mac has two video cards, and switches between them for better battery life, you may want to switch off Automatic graphics switching so that the best graphics will always be used. Instructions on how to accomplish this can be located on Apple's website at:
Below are a few settings you can change in Chief Architect to try and troubleshoot problems with your 3D views if updating the video card or chipset's graphics driver does not resolve the issue.
If your video card meets the minimum system requirements for the software and following these instructions do not resolve the problem, please contact the Technical Support department directly either via telephone, or using the Online Support Center.
Be prepared to provide information on your computer manufacturer, operating system, as well as the video card including its make, model, driver version and date.

I am currently a Sky+ HD customer and am looking to move to Virgin, however this will depend on the following.
Currently I have sky HD box and have my RF2 out from the sky box go into the loft into an Global F140 amplifier. From there I have dropped cables down into each bedroom and office and plugged in a magic eye in each room to allow me to change the channel.
This works for all rooms no problem, I can get my Sky+ on any TV.
I understand it is not that simply for Virgin. I have done some research and have the following questions:-
1. If I get the Samsung V+ HD box can I connect my TV using HDMI?
2. Can I connect the audio using digital optical cable to my amp and have the music coming through my surround sound?
Ok, not for the tougher questions:-
3. Can I go out of the VCR Scart into a RF Modulator and then connect this box to my RF coax leads that go into the loft and then down into all other rooms?
4. I understand that only the Samsung V+ HD box allows the VCR scart signal to be transmitted when connected to the TV using HDMI. Is this the case?
5. Does anyone have any recommendation on which modulator to purchase?
6. Does anyone have any recommendations on which Remote IR equipment I will need to allow me to change the channel remotely?
7. If this doesn't work, how can I get Virgin Media in my other rooms without paying or 4 additional boxes?
8. If I do the above will I get sound travelling around to my other TV's through the VCR Scart, then into the RF modulator and finally to the other TV's?
9. Will the menus and planner still work through the VCR scart connection?
10. Is there anything else I need to consider?
Please note, I only want HD picture quality in the living room where it will be connected using HDMI. I am happy for a degraded picture in the other rooms as long as its not too bad.
Please let me know your thoughts.
09-04-2010 22:34 - edited 09-04-2010 22:34
1) Yes
2) Yes
3) Yes
4) Sort of. Both V+ models leave the VCR SCART active - but only the Samsung V+HD shows the menus.
5 & 6) Couldn't say
7) It will work - although official support will only be given for additional STBs
8) Yes
9) See my answer to number 4
on 09-04-2010 22:42
Fantastic, thanks for the prompt reply.
Is the other V+ HD box that Virgin supply the Scentific Atlantic box?
I have had a site visit from Virgin and the guy who came around said he can make it so I get the Samsung V+ HD box.
I take it this should be my preferred box so that the VCR Scart works including all menus. Getting this working in the other rooms is absolutely key to my decision making process.
Can anyone else provide any recommendations on:-
1. Which RF modulator to get
1. Which IR sender to get
Thanks again.
on 14-04-2010 11:12
Hi BenMcr,
Thanks for the information. When you connect the SCART to RF modulator to the VCR socket on the Samsung V+ HD Box, will it just send the signal displayed on the box to the RF or does the V+ box have to be in playback? There are so many postings about this and many of them conflict. Also, any suggestions as to what channel it should be set to? I have a Maplin Model VH89 box with dip switches to change the output channel.
Any thoughts on this would be gratefully appreciated.
Many thanks

It will show up straight away

Not 100% sure. Suppose it would depend if you are in an area where the terrestrial analogue has been switched off or not
on 14-04-2010 21:10
Many thanks for the prompt reply Ben. Will give it a try.
Kind regards
on 15-04-2010 10:54
Hi Ben,
I have tried the VH89 box which I had given to me and it has a power problem so doesn't work. (tried it connected to my small bedroom TV and it didn't work despite changing to various channels)
I am going to strip it down to see if I can fix it, otherwise, is there another, reasonably priced SCART to RF adaptor you could recommend? One that will work with Virgin V+ HD box?
Many thanks
on 15-04-2010 16:51
I have seen the Mercury ILS102 RF Modulator box recommended, anyone got any thoughts on it
on 19-04-2010 22:50
For info: Have just purchased the Maplin VH89W Scart to RF adaptor and it works perfectly! I connected it to the VCR socket and then to my RF cable. It now plays on the bedroom TV and kitchen and there seems to be no sound buzz as some people have mentioned in other forums. It is £19.99 and is just what I needed.

Do the milkshake the milkshake do the shake
Professor Layton and the Miracle Mask was launched in Japan back in February, and we're happy to report that it's finally making its way west, arriving in Europe on October 26th, Australia and New Zealand from October 27th, and North America from October 28th. Finally, non-Japanese gamers are given the opportunity to check out the latest adventures of our favourite archaeologist and puzzle-solver.
The game is packed with 150 new brainteasers and a bunch of new minigames hidden away in the Professor's Trunk. If that's not enough, there are also 365 Daily Puzzles that will be handed out via the Nintendo Network - one new puzzle every day for a whole year from the game's launch in your region.
Believe it or not, we're up to the fifth game in the series, which picks up "some time" after the events of The Last Specter. This time around, Layton, Luke and Emmy must stop the mysterious Masked Gentleman from terrorising the city of Monte d'Or - but the Gentleman has other ideas, including turning citizens to stone!
Could the Mask of Chaos be behind all of this?
The ongoing adventure includes a series of flashbacks, introducing Layton's parents and his childhood friend Randall, as well as giving you the opportunity to play as a 17-year old Layton. (He even gets his own game mode, exploring ancient ruins and avoiding mummy enemies while searching for the exits of puzzle chambers!)
Professor Layton and the Miracle Mask features the adorable hand-drawn art style we've come to expect from Level-5, but this time around there's 3D animations thrown in as well as more detailed character models, adding an extra depth (ha!) to the visuals.
If you're into Professor Layton games, you'll already be itching for this one. You don't need to be told that there are three new minigames which let you act as a storekeeper, control a wind-up toy robot, and train a rabbit - but they're icing on an already tasty cake.
The best bit? If you don't want to leave the house to pick up your copy, you don't have to - Professor Layton and the Miracle Mask will be available from day one through the Nintendo eShop as well as in brick-and-mortar retailers.
I like video games and music and cups of tea and noodles and beagles and colour-cycling LEDs.

Sanibel Island
Sanibel Island Travel Guide
Lying just off the coast of Florida, west of Fort Myers, Sanibel Island has long cultivated its small-beach-town charm by keeping things simple. You won't find the high rises or kitsch that some beach towns have—but instead, a variety of mom-and-pop stores, plenty of marine life, and shells. Lots of shells. Thanks to its east-west orientation and the Gulf of Mexico currents, Sanibel is a natural magnet for seashells (200 kinds, by some counts). The act of shelling is so popular that folks call it the Sanibel Stoop (and the Captiva Crouch, on the neighboring island). But the island also offers other naturalist pleasures, such as hiking, cycling or kayaking through the J. N. "Ding" Darling National Wildlife Refuge, which takes up roughly half the island. Read on in this Sanibel Island travel guide to create your own island paradise here:
Things Not to Miss on Sanibel Island
• Shelling on the white sand beaches
• Bailey-Matthews Shell Museum
• J.N. "Ding" Darling National Wildlife Refuge
• Captiva Island
When to Go to Sanibel Island
The height of the Sanibel Island travel season runs from December to April, the sunny snowbird season all over Florida. If you're intent on getting the best shells, come between February and April. Granted, the prices are higher, too. For lower rates, travel to Sanibel Island during the fall or early winter. Just be mindful of the chance of hurricanes, which starts in the summer and can last until late fall.

CROSS ROADS, TEXAS (Madison County). Cross Roads is a small rural community located at the intersection of U.S. Highway 75 and the Old San Antonio Road about ten miles north of Madisonville in northern Madison County. The town began around the early 1900s, and much activity centered on a general store owned by John Collier and located on the northeastern corner of the highway intersection. Nearby was a blacksmith shop and a Baptist church. During the first half of the twentieth century several different stores were opened in Cross Roads. A cotton gin and a gristmill served the farmers of the region who brought their cotton and corn to town. The last business to operate in the community was a store owned by W. L. "Bud" Waldrip at the northwestern corner of the Cross Roads intersection. The establishment closed in 1978. Cross Roads has remained a dispersed rural community. In 2000 the population was seventy-five.

New Press Releases
- Nearly as hard as sapphire with a lustrous, hand-polished finish
- Ideal for creating chains, pendants or earrings
- Excellent connector or multi-media design component
- Available in a variety of shapes including the popular infinity sign
Using 21st century technology, zirconia ceramic components are created from natural zirconia powder in a process that begins with the ethical mining of zirconia rich sands in Australia. The zirconia grains are separated from non-essential elements in the sand and crushed into a fine powder, where binding and color agents are added. Then, through a treatment called sintering, the mixture is pressed into a mold and fired under massive pressure at over 2500 degrees Fahrenheit. Hand-polished with diamond lapidary tools, and nearly as hard as sapphire, these classic black and white components offer countless design possibilities. Available in a variety of shapes, including the popular infinity sign, zirconia ceramic components are ideal for creating chains, pendants and earrings, or including in mixed-media projects. Zirconia ceramic can also be safely baked with polymer clay or Friendly Plastic®.

This page provides a brief introduction to selected elements of the Vietnamese Law on Adoption.
It must be stressed that this page is a work in progress, and is subject to verification.
The Vietnamese Law on Adoption took effect from January 1st, 2011. It contains 53 Articles, and addresses both domestic and intercountry adoption. In Article 2, the Law states the purpose of adoption as seeking to provide a long term and sustainable relationship between the adoptive parents and adopted child, for the best interests of the child, as well as ensuring the provision of care and nurturance and education to the child within a family environment.
The best interests of the child are reflected throughout the Law, and in the approach to ensuring that proper checks and balances are provided for, in terms of consents and approvals.
Article 8 indicates that children under 16 years of age are eligible for adoption, and that a child can be adopted by a person who is single or by a married couple. Specifically, the Vietnamese Government encourages the adoption of orphans, abandoned children and other children in special circumstances.
The Law expressly forbids taking advantage of adoption to gain profit, conduct abuse or exploitation of the child, or to engage in child trafficking, or to discriminate between adopted and birth children.
Article 15 outlines the process for arranging alternative family placement for a child, where he/she is not cared for in his/her own family environment. This effectively describes the domestic adoption process from the child's perspective. In addition, Article 21 outlines the requirements for giving & receiving consent to an adoption.
Article 24 states that the adoptive parents have full rights and obligations towards the adopted child from the date of reception of the child. This takes place at a ceremony for the transfer and reception of the child in the offices of the Provincial Department of Justice in the province in which the child resides (Article 37).
Article 14 of the Vietnamese law outlines the requirements for adopters. For foreign applicants seeking to adopt a Vietnamese child out of Vietnam, these requirements also apply, and include sufficient health, economic conditions and accommodations to ensure the care, nurturance and education of the adopted child. In addition, adoptive parents must be at least 20 years older than the child to be adopted, have good morals, and full civil behavioural capacity.
Please note that additional policies may apply, as set by the Vietnamese Authorities.

�Due to an IC substrate shortage, supplies of ATI�s Radeon 9250, X300, and X550 are short of demand at present, according to sources at graphics card makers. Although the chip vendor launched its 90nm process R5xx series only in the latter half of this year, the Radeon X1800, X1600, and X1300 are also limited in supply, the sources added.�
ATI has had supply issues in the past from time to time, more recently with the almost-impossible-to-find X700 card. When card purchases pick up this month and next, it's bad news for low supply, although ATI has stated in the past that their supply issues have been amended.
