This is a truly awesome cultivar. PlantFiles' maximum height field needs to be adjusted. I planted mine as a 15-gallon tree in 2010 and it has already climbed to almost 8 feet. It has a wonderful, natural teardrop/flame shape, beautiful bark, and super-glossy, dark leaves. I really have to keep emphasizing how beautiful and silky the leaves are; I could just run my fingers over them all day. Just an essential plant all around, and much more manageable in size than the standard species. Evergreen; needs zero water once established.

For those people who had the opportunity to participate in Titanfall's beta, they had the chance to get an early sampling of what was coming from Respawn Entertainment, and on the developer side of things, that time period couldn't have been more valuable to the team.
Recently, Abbie Heppe, who is Respawn's community manager, talked about how important it was for the team to have the Titanfall beta and receive the type of feedback they did on the game.
"Doing beta was incredibly helpful because it let us get ahead of a lot of issues in a couple of ways. We did some fixes right after beta, we did a few little weapon balances as well.
"And then from our side it let us look into things like people using a certain graphics card are going to have an issue, so let's proactively reach out to that company and let them know so that they can provide an update.
"So it let us get ahead of a lot of customer support issues as well which is really helpful," Heppe said.
Most of you know how successful Titanfall has turned out to be, we gave the game a 4 out of 5, and thankfully, it is a game that has lived up to the hype.
While Respawn will continue to support the game with DLCs and updates, fans definitely have something real to enjoy with Titanfall. We expect to see much more of Titanfall in the future.
For all of our latest exclusives, previews, reviews and features, follow us on Twitter and like us on Facebook. Game On.
Thanks, GI!

Interactive C is a program which uses a modified version of ANSI C with several libraries and features that allow hobbyists to program small robotics platforms.
Version by Newton Research Labs[edit]
Newton Research Labs developed Interactive C as a compiling environment for robots using the Motorola 6811 processor. The MIT LEGO Robot Design Contest (6.270) was the original purpose for the software.[1] It became popular, however, due to its ability to compile on the fly rather than taking time to compile beforehand as other languages had done. The programming environment's newest version is IC Version 8.0.2, which supports these operating systems:
The screenshot to the right shows Interactive C running on a Windows operating system. The program features an Interaction Window where one-line C commands can be sent to the connected controller as well as an editing window, here titled main.c, where a program file is being edited and can be sent to the attached controller.
Here is the basic "Hello World" example for IC programming:
void main()
printf("Hello World");
Here is another example using motor ports 1 and 3:
void main()
A basic infinite loop that will beep for ever:
void main()
Interactive C is used by The Ohio State University to program MIT Handy Boards in its Fundamentals of Engineering for Honors Program. [1]
Version by KISS Institute for Practical Robotics[edit]
KISS Institute for Practical Robotics developed a third-party alternative to the Newton Labs version of Interactive C for their Botball Educational Robotics Program.
The latest version of Interactive C by KISS Institute for Practical Robotics is IC 8.0.2, which supports these operating systems:
- Windows 2000, XP, Vista
- Mac OS X 10.3, 10.4, 10.5
- Linux (with gcc 3.3)
IC8 supports the following robotics controllers:
- Xport Botball Controller (XBC) versions 1, 2, and 3
- Xport Botball Controller (XBC) with iRobot Create
- MIT Handy Board with Expansion Board
- Lego RCX using the serial IR tower

Fitch Affirms Home Depot at 'A-'; Outlook Stable Business Wire CHICAGO -- November 21, 2012 Fitch Ratings has affirmed its long-term Issuer Default Rating (IDR) on The Home Depot, Inc. at 'A-', and its short-term IDR at 'F2'. The Rating Outlook is Stable. Home Depot had $10.8 billion of debt outstanding as of Oct. 28, 2012. A full rating list is shown below. The affirmation reflects Home Depot's solid operating momentum, strong free cash flow, and public statements that it has a maximum leverage target of 2x. The ratings also consider Home Depot's leading position in the home improvement retail sector in North America as well as the challenges posed by a slow recovery by the housing market and persistently high unemployment. Home Depot has been able to generate positive operating momentum in the midst of a home improvement industry that has seen consumers focus on repair and maintenance projects while avoiding more complex projects. Sales to pros, which are more indicative of the housing market, make up approximately 35% of its sales, and could support improved sales growth as the housing market recovers. Despite industry headwinds, Fitch currently projects U.S. home improvement spending to increase 4.5% in 2012 and 4.0% in 2013. Home Depot's comparable store sales have been positive for ten of the past eleven quarters, following four years of negative comps. Total sales growth is expected to be approximately 5% in 2012 (on a 53 week basis) and in the positive low single digits in 2013-2014, in-line with the overall market. Home Depot has produced a strong margin recovery over the past two years, with EBIT margins improving to 10.7% in the twelve months ending Oct. 29, 2012, from 9.5% in the comparable period in 2011 driven by a combination of gross margin improvement and strong expense management. Fitch sees moderate additional margin upside made possible by the investments Home Depot is making in its technology and supply chain, and thinks the company can achieve a 12% EBIT margin by 2015. Home Depot plans to build only 8-10 new stores per year over the coming few years, to be focused primarily in Mexico. Low levels of capital expenditures have resulted in strong free cash flow after dividends (FCF), which is expected to track around $3-4 billion annually going forward as capital expenditures remain at less than 2% of sales. FCF, and some incremental borrowings, will be directed to share repurchases, as the company manages its financial leverage (adjusted debt/EBITDAR) at or under 2.0 times (x). Home Depot has a solid liquidity position supported by a seasonally strong cash balance of $2.5 billion at Oct. 29, 2012, together with an undrawn $2.0 billion credit facility. The company also benefits from its 89% store base ownership. The next major debt maturity is a $1.3 billion note coming due in December 2013, which Fitch expects will be refinanced. What Would Lead To Consideration of a Negative Rating Action Weaker operating trends or a move by management to more shareholder friendly policies that increase adjusted leverage to the mid 2x range could lead to a negative rating action. What Would Lead To Consideration of a Positive Rating Action Continued positive operating trends together with a sustained reduction in adjusted leverage to below 1.5x, could lead to a positive rating action. Fitch has affirmed the following ratings on Home Depot: --Long-term Issuer Default Rating (IDR) at 'A-'; --Senior unsecured notes at 'A-'; --Bank credit facilities at 'A-'; --Short-term IDR at 'F2'; --Commercial paper at 'F2'. The Rating Outlook is Stable. Additional information is available at 'www.fitchratings.com'. The ratings above were unsolicited and have been provided by Fitch as a service to investors.

Public Lands and Private Rights:The Failure of Scientific ManagementBy Robert H. Nelson
Donald Leal
The Forest Service needs strong incentives to adhere to the bottom line. The right motivation could help create a profitable timber program.
Once considered America's "crown jewels," our national parks have become tarnished by monetary problems. Campgrounds are closed, buildings are in disrepair, roads are potholed and natural resources are degraded.

It's time to let federal agencies buy and sell land, says Tim Fitzgerald in a new PERC Policy Series paper. "Federal Land Exchanges: Let's End the Barter" offers a practical way to reform the costly and time-wasting federal land exchange process.

No, my parents very much believe that a person should take responsibilty for their actions and choices made. There are a lot of people who have it much worse than you. Feeling sorry for yourself was never received well. I think it's the Irish Catholic in them.
You asked about 'your parents' and 'can you relate' so I answered about my parents and myself not you.
Yep. I don't want to get too much into the details but I was raised by one parent from birth and we've always had a different relationship, I'm the daughter and friend to a father and friend. It works well for us usually, though there are times when I wish he'd just be a parent. But I appreciate our special bond. I don't know what I'm going to do without him someday.
I know for fact my parents do and I remind them everyday why they should.
Looooonnnngggg Stooooorrrryyyy.

I don't think that the Devils are catering to Brodeur's ego, as many believe. The fact that he says that wins are the most important stat in HIS mind is a team-first mentality. He never said that he would accept a trade anywhere. He simply stated that he has some control/say in where he may end up, is not going against the team mentality. I didn't realize that Brodeur had received so many starts.
Also, in response to Triumph, you cannot guarantee that the Devils would be in a better position had Schneider had say, even ten more starts than Brodeur.
If you look at the numbers when it comes to stopping pucks...yes they do suggest the Devils would be in a better position had he played more
The Devils have bailed Brodeur out a lot this year. He is a .898 goaltender who get 3+ goals a game of support. If you switch goal support...Brodeur would have fewer than 10 years. They win in spite of him most times. It's just dumb luck.
Brodeur has cost this team points this year. Calgary, Edmonton, the outdoor game, the Blue Jacket gag job in mid December. He blew a 4-1 lead to a bad team Saturday night and he was bailed out. He blew multiple leads to Detroit right before the deadline...and they bailed him out. Schneider was great against the Capitals. We scored 0 for him
To be honest if you're getting 3+ goals a game of support, 16-11-4 is not that good. You'd expect at least 19-8-4 with that kind of help

text: The rebirth of the Alpine brand is going to have to stay in the womb a little longer, it appears. Autocar learned that Renault's styling mockup was secretly shown to possible clients recently, and the feedback was tepid enough for the French company to send the design back to the drawing board. The delay will likely push the sports car back to a 2016 launch.

3, 2, 1 . . . Happy New Year! Whether counting down to 2011 at tried-and-true celebrations like New York's annual Times Square extravaganza, or by eating a grape for every stroke of midnight in Barcelona, your adrenaline is sure to be racing as 2010 winds down at ShermansTravel.com favorite locales for New Year celebrations. They love the ultimate party city, Vegas, for its most over-the-top show of the year; partying hearty in Berlin's massive open-air fiesta; schussing the slopes of the majestic Rockies; and even standing under the breathtaking fireworks cascade over Sydney's harbor. Should you agree that one day of feting simply won't suffice, experience the celebration Scot-style, with merrymaking in Edinburgh that lasts four long days, or head to bustling Hong Kong to experience what's billed as the world's largest Chinese New Year celebration, spanning more than three weeks of festivities. Beach-lovers can also experience sandy revelry with a twist on December 31 in Rio or Miami.
Text & captions courtesy of ShermanTravel.com, adapted from "Top 10 New Year Celebrations"
Snow bunnies will use any excuse to hit the slopes, and a New Year's celebration is better than most. But, there's way more than soft, wide mountain terrain to lure reveling holiday travelers to Aspen's legendary runs. This fabled, fabulous resort has long played host to the free-spirited and the Forbes/Fortune crowd who can't get enough of the sophisticated action on and off the slopes. Whether schussing down the pistes of Snowmass or Aspen Highlands, dining on gourmet cuisine, or savoring martinis with the well-heeled, Aspen makes for a glittering Alpine getaway and a stylish New Year celebration.
Don't miss your siesta – Barcelona's all-night New Year's fiesta requires some stamina! The Spanish version of año nuevo kicks off with family and friends sharing a sumptuous meal and mucho vino at a private home or restaurant – the more exceptional restaurants, like Catalan-inspired Ca l'Isidre and upscale Jaume de Provença – must be booked well in advance. The onset of 12am means a frantic race to stuff your face with 12 good-luck grapes – one for each stroke of midnight. You'd be wise to concentrate on the task at hand – if you succeed at this long-standing Spanish tradition, you're ensured a year of prosperity and good luck (otherwise, it's said you'll have a month of bad luck for every uneaten grape). Once the last one is downed, crowds spill out into the Gothic Quarter and Las Ramblas, drawn by the pulsating music and chatter emanating from numerous bars and nightclubs. The New Year celebrations stay pumping until dawn – just in time to catch the first sunrise of the year on the beach, with some hot chocolate and churros in hand!
Sure, winter in Berlin can be downright frigid, but the city's schedule of adrenaline-pumping New Year's Eve activities warms spirited revelers right up. Kick off the festivities long before the stroke of midnight at the Berlin New Year's Eve Run – whether you lace up your sneakers or just join ranks to watch, this is guaranteed to be a race unlike any other (the trophy goes not to the fastest runner, but to the most outrageously costumed!). Afterward, follow the crowds to the mile-and-a-quarter-long Silvester party, which unfolds between the iconic Brandenburg Gate and the Victory Column. Join over a million people at this mind-blowing New Year celebration complete with DJ towers, laser light shows, party tents, video screens, live bands, and a fireworks show that brings in the New Year with a bang.
This Scottish capital boasts one of the world's biggest New Year bashes: Hogmanay. At the close of each year, a 4-day fête counts down to the big kahuna on December 31, complete with parades, concerts, carnivals, firework shows, and a slew of hedonistic events and parties. Major international artists perform in the city center during Edinburgh's Hogmanay Street Party on New Year's Eve, while age-old national customs, like "first-footing", are practiced all over town: Right after midnight during this New Year celebration, neighbors bring luck – and gifts of coal or shortbread – to their friends and family by being the first to set foot in their household in the new year.
What's better than celebrating New Year's once? Celebrating it twice! Enjoy traditional December 31 festivities at home, and then jet off to Hong Kong several weeks later to do it all over again – only bigger and arguably, better. Already the leading event on the lunar calendar, Hong Kong earns accolades for hosting the world's biggest Chinese New Year celebration, with 2011 festivities set to run from February 3 through February 17 (though some events will kick off as early as January). During this time, visitors can welcome the Year of the Rabbit by taking part in specially-planned events and activities like browsing colorful flower markets, attending horse races, or ogling massive fireworks displays. Don't miss the free "fiestas," featuring elaborate floats and performers, or the International Chinese New Year Night Parade (held on February 3, Chinese New Year's Day), when Hong Kong will be bursting at the seams with costumed revelers, musical performances, and an overall sense of jubilation.
Viva Las Vegas is never more vivacious than when the no-holds-barred party capital of the world hosts the biggest bash of the year. Throwing down in Sin City has become a consistently bigger and better New Year's phenomenon in recent years, as partiers are lured by dazzling pyrotechnics, wild street parties, super-chic nightclubs, gourmet restaurants, big-name performers – and hundreds of thousands of fellow revelers with whom to enjoy it. The main New Year celebrations unfold on the Strip, which is closed to traffic and transformed into a viewing platform for a fantastic fireworks extravaganza that's blasted into the night sky above the city's neon lights. "America's Party" also takes place downtown, where the Fremont Street Experience becomes a huge block party complete with confetti, a massive wine toast, concerts by big-name rockers, and a five-block-long illuminated canopy 90 feet overhead, on which state-of-the-art sound-and-light shows are shown.
While the winter chill keeps many of us bundled up and indoors on the big eve, South Beach is as hot as ever and we're not just talking about the weather. Miami's trendy Art Deco neighborhood buzzes with a sexy scene that's even more energized than usual when the year comes to a close. Cool and well-dressed hipsters bounce from bar to club, not to mention scads of Hollywood A-listers who flock south for some of the year's most exclusive and unabashed fiestas. Don't have an invite? You can still nab tickets to an array of party hot spots like The Delano, The Setai, or Gansevoort Miami Beach to hobnob and people watch. For something a little less velvet rope, Miami's Bayfront Park hosts South Florida's largest on-the-house party – with a free concert, a countdown to midnight with the big Orange drop (the New Year's ball that slowly descends the side of the InterContinental hotel, and a dazzling fireworks display over Biscayne Bay to complete the New Year celebration.
For the ultimate New Year's experience, there's no better place to be than in the center of the City that Never Sleeps. Times Square has been home to the renowned "ball drop" celebration for 104 years (it debuted in 1907); today, millions of visitors flood New York City's confetti-covered streets to partake in an all-night, over-sized street party filled with live music, celebrity visits, and tons of Happy New Year paraphernalia. For those wary of late-December weather forecasts, have no fear – you can always join the excitement without bundling up, as local bars and nightclubs buzz with their own private parties, many of which last until the wee hours of the morning. Plus, if you're looking to join the New Year celebration from home, tune into the live TV coverage of the annual event along with audiences worldwide.
Sure, Carnival might get all the glory, but New Year's Eve in Rio de Janeiro is memorable in its own right. An extravagant beachfront spectacle, known as Reveillon, sees an eclectic blend of traditions unfold along Copacabana, attracting some 2 million faithful practitioners of the Umbanda and Candomblé religions – and a lot of curious tourists. Sure, you'll get your no-less-than-spectacular fireworks, delectable Brazilian food, and pulsating samba music to enjoy during the warm summer day's festivities, but you'll also see ritualistic offerings to the sea goddess, Iemanjá, made by a group of white-clad, candle-holding, revelers who rush to the surf to release small wooden boats. Tradition holds that if the goddess is pleased with a boat's inner offerings (normally flowers, perfumes, or other similar trinkets), it will be carried out to sea and the bearer bestowed with blessings. As night falls, Brazilians prove that they sure know how to party as DJs start up their sound systems and dancing and drinking lasts til dawn. Luxury beachfront hotels host New Year celebrations in the form of private balls and parties, to boot – they're also a great spot for tuckered-out revelers to enjoy champagne breakfasts as the first light of January 1 approaches.
Sydney is renowned across the globe for hosting one of the ultimate New Year's Eve bashes. Indeed, this Aussie capital pulls out all the stops, with an array of glamorous citywide celebrations and stellar pyrotechnic presentations over the harbor. Bursts of dazzling colors explode over the Sydney Harbor Bridge and dance on the water and over the Opera House's scalloped roof. Plenty of New Year's Eve cruises sail around the harbor to provide unparalleled views of the spectacular extravaganza. And since it's summer Down Under, you can delight in sun-drenched spoils the next day. With a chic urban vibe, gorgeous surf-swept beaches, rocking nightlife, and an edgy art scene, there's plenty to soak up after you recuperate from a champagne-filled New Year celebration you won't soon forget.

Local business hopes to help girl's wish come true
By: Bridget Jones, Journal Staff Writer
Various activities, vendors, entertainment available at opening
A grand opening celebration will also benefit a local 6-year-old suffering from a brain tumor. Auburn Autohaus, which opened its doors in September, is an automotive repair shop. The store is celebrating its grand opening from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. Sunday with a street fair. The event will include various local vendors, a raffle for gifts from community businesses, a small hot rod show, a bounce house, the Placer High School jazz band, Penney the clown, live music by the band "2 Days Away," a car wash and more. There is no entry cost, but proceeds from all other purchases will go toward the Make-A-Wish Foundation of Sacramento and Northeastern California account of 6-year-old Rocklin resident Trinity Upton. Trinity's wish is to go to Disneyland and have tea with the Disney princesses. Tiffany Upton, Trinity's mother, said she is really grateful for the fundraiser. "I was really surprised," Upton said. "I think it's awesome. I was on the verge of tears when I heard that, because it's really special." Upton said this would be Trinity's first chance to go to Disneyland. Scott Lance, co-owner of Auburn Autohaus, said the shop is committed to raising $5,000 to make Trinity's wish come true. Lance said Make-A-Wish was a natural beneficiary choice for him and co-owner Russ Melendez, and Trinity's condition really hits home for him. "On a personal level … I just had a very close family friend pass away with a brain tumor," Lance said. "We chose Make-A-Wish, because we feel like it's a really important charity. The thing that is most exciting is I want to send her there. Obviously, my partner Russ and I are very excited to do business in Auburn, but that takes a back burner to Make-A-Wish." Lance said he was told there are two other children in Placer County who participate with Make-A-Wish, and the company will strive to raise $15,000 for all three if possible. Lance said he has been impressed by how much the Auburn community wants to get involved in the fundraiser and the company already has a list of businesses signed up to participate. Tamika Soto, wish coordinator for Make-A-Wish Foundation of Sacramento and Northeastern California, said events like the grand opening celebration help the nonprofit organization achieve wishes made by children. "It's just really nice when a community can come together, because that is really how we can do what we can do," Soto said. "It just pulls people together all for a great cause. Soto said $5,000 would pay for Trinity to visit Disneyland, stay in a hotel at the park and live out her wish, including meeting the princesses. Soto said this trip could be very important for a girl who has spent years going in and out of the hospital for treatments. "Giving her a wish will just give her something else to look forward to," Soto said. Upton said Trinity feels like a princess, and is excited about the fact that Auburn Autohaus is having a limousine take her to the event. "I think just the whole idea of it is really exciting for her," she said. "She is really excited about the limo, because she's never been in a limo." Reach Bridget Jones at email@example.com ------------------------------------------------------ Auburn Autohaus Auburn Autohaus opened its doors Sept. 1 at the former location of Cross Roads Auburn Volkswagen. Scott Lance and Russ Melendez are the owners. The facility specializes in repairs for Volkswagens, Audis and General Motors vehicles, but works on all makes and models of cars. It also services boats and jet skis. Both Lance and Melendez have over 30 years of retail automotive repair experience. Lance said he thinks the close-knit feeling of Auburn is something unique to the foothills area. "Our customers are … very sincere about supporting our local businesses," Lance said. "Honestly, you just don't find that everywhere." The facility is located at 2855 Grass Valley Highway. For more information, call (530) 888-7200 or visit auburnautohaus.com.

You almost hate to hear it: Making your own bitters at home? Yeah, it's actually not that difficult.
Because there's no excuse now -- and you start to think, how could I not have been doing this all along? Ideas for black cherry-ginger, or coffee bean-cocoa nib bitters rush in.
If you're tapped in to the cocktail zeitgeist, odds are you already have bitters on the brain. (If you're not, here's what you need to know: Classic cocktails? Having a major moment. Housemade ingredients? Huge. Bitters? Über retro-chic.) So you can imagine the on-trend factor of housemade bitters, and the cocktails made with them.
"They're a kind of late-blooming extension of the classic cocktail trend that peaked about five years ago, and the more widespread grassroots, farm-to-table phenomenon that's taken place in the industry more recently," explains Dan Carlson, bartender at New York restaurant Saul. Bitters, essentially a highly concentrated mixture of spirits and aromatic ingredients, act as "a kind of nuanced seasoning that galvanizes the flavor profile of a cocktail recipe." And while they have long since played a role in the craft of making cocktails -- the still widely popular brand Angostura dates back to 1824 -- the resurgence of the classic cocktail has pushed bitters out of the old folks' home and given them a whole new wardrobe at that.
At Saul, and its sister establishment The Vanderbilt, you'll find housemade bitters without boundaries: Saigon cinnamon and walnut; strawberry and Indian fennel. "When you make your own bitters you have the freedom to choose what kind of flavor combinations you'd like to anchor your recipes around. You come to respect each ingredient more fully and understand how they can act in harmony and discord with others," Dan remarks.
OK, so let's backtrack for a second. Because "not that difficult" is not to say that there isn't still some work involved -- think of making your own bitters as a sort of science project for the card-carrying cocktail geek. Is sourcing ingredients like quassia bark and gentian going to be a bit of a challenge? Sure. But consider this: One "starter" batch of bitters could easily last the average home bartender a year.
You just need to go in knowing that it's going to require some patience, and accept that it might not work out exactly as you anticipated. As Dan is quick to note, "It might sound silly, but I think you need to remind yourself that you're doing this because it's fun, and there is an element of risk involved."

Where Your Favorite Foods Really Come From
Dan advises that first-timers should start out by making a large batch of "base" bitters that you can divide up into smaller quantities and experiment with. "If you were cooking you might think of it as a kind of master sauce that you could add to then tweak." Recipe: Saigon Cinnamon & Walnut Bitters
Sourcing some of the more obscure ingredients, like gentian and quassia bark, can be one of the bigger challenges in making bitters at home. Dan recommends looking for them in medicinal herb shops and apothecaries (like Flower Power in New York's East Village), or online at sites like Starwest Botanicals. As for the fruits, spices, and more common herbs, he says you don't have to look further than your local farmers' market. "Just keep in mind that you'll have to dry out the herbs, fruits and their peels." Related: How to Revive Spices
For the neutral grain spirits base, Dan likes to use Polmos' 192-proof Spirytus Rektyfikowany, which he found at his local liquor store in Greenpoint, Brooklyn. Though he says any high-proof vodka works too -- higher proof spirits are best for extracting flavors. Related: America's Bitterest Brews
All of the aromatics and spirits get added together at the same time in a large sealable jar (50-70 ounces). The mixture will need to sit and steep for about 3-4 weeks. "I usually hit gold around three and a half weeks, more than five and you're really almost past the point of no return," he shares. Related: 10 Secrets to Perfect Liquor Infusions
You'll need to shake your bitters mixture vigorously once daily during the weeks-long steeping process. Tasting regularly is important as well, so that you become sensitive to how the flavor is changing. "Put a few drops on your hands and rub them together, then cup your nose and inhale. Others insist on putting a few drops in a glass of soda water or tasting them directly on your tongue, but I've found that the former dilutes the flavor too much and the other destroys your palette for 20 minutes." Recipe: Liquid Sunshine Cocktail
Dan shares that one of the cooler tricks he's learned in the process of making bitters is the best way to clarify them. Once the mixture has steeped long enough to achieve the desired flavor, he recommends layering cheesecloth in a chinois sieve and passing the mixture through into a nonreactive vessel. Related: 8 Exclusive Beer Sommelier Restaurants
After passing the bitters mixture through the chinois, let that sit for another day or two to allow all of the micro-particles to settle at the bottom. Once they have, decant the liquid or use a turkey baster to extract the bitters from the clean, sediment-free area right near the surface. Says Dan, "Gravity will be much more of a friend in this case than a French Press, paper coffee filter, or colander will ever be." Transfer into a small dropper bottle for easy use when creating cocktails. Related: Drink Quiz: Cocktail Matchmaker
How to go about pairing the right bitters with the right cocktail? Says Dan, "Generally speaking, while the role of bitters in cocktails should be subtle and nuanced, you want them to play nicely and don't want them to get lost. You might want woody, aggressive, smell-them-across-the-bar bitters with Scotch; herbaceous, maybe even floral bitters with dry gin; rich and spicy yet smooth bitters with mezcal. But then again, with a tempered, balanced hand, anything's possible." Recipe: Highland Sage Cocktail

Finally, a current windows build. yeah! :-)
Using XP SP3; gourmet-0.15.4-alpha
1. I tried the nogtk version but it errored out so I tried the full version. It "uprgaded" my existing gt+ version from the 2.14.7 rev a that came with pidgin to what was in the installer. the installer should recognize existing gtk installs and not downgrade current installs.
anyway, using the gtk that gourmet installed, the following happens.
if i run gourmet from the commandline, i get the following error in the .log:
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "Gourmet.pyw", line 2, in <module>
File "zipextimporter.pyo", line 82, in load_module
File "gtk\__init__.pyo", line 38, in <module>
File "zipextimporter.pyo", line 82, in load_module

File "zipextimporter.pyo", line 82, in load_module
File "gobject\constants.pyo", line 22, in <module>
File "zipextimporter.pyo", line 98, in load_module
ImportError: MemoryLoadLibrary failed loading gobject\_gobject.pyd
Debug version gets me this:
C:\Program Files\Gourmet\
> Gourmet_debug.exe
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "GourmetDebug.pyw", line 9, in <module>
File "zipextimporter.pyo", line 98, in load_module
ImportError: MemoryLoadLibrary failed loading win32ui.pyd
Double-clicking the .exe in explorer and using the shortcut in the startup menu launches gourmet.exe correctly but the debug never runs (you get the quick dos box pop up and disappear before you can read the text so i assume it's the same error).
2. When gourmet launches, the window is painted 360x170 pixels wide (if launched from the shortcut with maximized, that works) and resizing changes aren't carried over into future sessions. Additionally, when a recipe is opened or the edit instructions buton is clicked, those windows are drawn similarly-sized and resizing isn't saved.
3. 7-zip 4.65 opens the library.zip file; winzip 9 doesn't; WinRAR 3.90 doesn't; pkzip25.exe says:
Viewing .ZIP: Copy of library.zip
Errors were found in .ZIP file, attempt to fix (<Y>es/<N>o)? y

Recovered .ZIP filename is: pkfixed.zip
It also shrinks the size from 7,902,270 to 5,725,267 bytes. A binary comparison of the extracted file contents shows them identical. Unfortunately, the repaired version doesn't work. When launched, you get 2 error dialogs: "The specified module could not be found. LoadLibrary (pythondll) failed", click OK and "C:\Program Files\Gourmet\PYTHON26.DLL". Pthyon26.dll doesn't even exist so I'm assuming the EXE does something on the fly with the zip.
4. Some interface/operation bugs:
On the main screen, you cannot resize the column widths.
When editing ingredients, if you press the delete key while in text edit mode (not the toolbar icon) it deletes the entire ingredient when it should only delete text.
When editing ingredients, if you press the toolbar down (or up) icon, you lose focus after the first press and subsequent presses of the same icon have no effect. You can do up-down to cycle between two ingredients but cannot press down-down to go down two lines.
On the timer screen, numeric input doesn't work. Don't know if this is inteded or not (I'm guessing it's not).
On the unit converter, if density is a required item, it a> should be exapnded by default and b> should have a default value (I suggest water at 1.00).
Word-wrapping seems to be inconsistent, e.g. on the main screen, the recipe "Bourbon And Honey Smoke-Roasted Pork Tenderloin" gets wrapped as "Bourbon And Honey Smoke-Roasted"\n"Pork Tenderloin"; also in the edit ingredients screen, " beef, cut into cubes for stewing" gets wrapped as "beef, cut into cubes for"\n"stewing" but displays on a single line in the card view.
5. After upgrading gtk back to 2.14.7 rev a, I tried Gourmet again. Everything worked the same…
ahh, i spoke (typed) too soon, there is one difference in the new gtk. It allows column widths to be adjusted.
Wow that was much more elaborate than what I had to say. =D
1. I also found that the window resizing didn't get saved when opening new windows. I also noticed that if you minimized the main Gourmet window and brought it up while it was in full screen, then it would come up shrunk down again.
2. I was having problems saving recipe files. I would select an image, hit save and it would just not react in anyway that was noticeable. I'd close the Edit Description page then it would ask if I wanted to save, I choose save. Then I would close the recipe file and it would ask me to save again, but when looking at the main Gourmet screen it seems that the image was not saved at all. I opened it back up and there was no image. So I closed it out completely, and launched Gourmet again and the image was there. But since doing that I've not had problems with saving while working in the description menu.
3. It also seemed that Gourmet was not refreshing the changes I made unless I closed it out and opened it back up, but after closing and opening it a second time that problem no longer exists.
So it seems that my problems resolved themselves after having restarted Gourmet the second and third time.
Gourmet version - gourmet-0.15.4-alpha-full_gtkglade-2.12.9.exe
hi there. :-)
I was playing around with importing recipes and ran into the same problems you did with #2 & 3. I was saying to myself: If I have to close and re-open every time I import something to see if it really imported, this is going to be a drag. Then I noticed that I had spilled over to the second page of recipes. :-O
there still is some hinky behavior with showing newlt tped up or imported recipes after the process is done. at least some type of dialog box saying success would be good. as it is, you just get dumped to the main screen with no indication (no error message so that's a signal, i guess) but the recipe doesn't show. I've closed and restarted more than a few times but it's still (not) happening…
Richard Beels
some more errors….
- you can resize the columns in the main window, but they don't stick between sessions.
- something is weird with ingredient entry if you have the key editor plugin activated. i was trying to enter a recipe using flour and it wouldn't save if I had flour as an ingredient. I suppose flour itself isn't what's important but probably the variations of flour types overloaded some register/counter in the key editor or something? When I turned off the plugin, I could save the recipe - the ingredients were identical to 30 seconds ago when I couldn't save the recipe. I just ran into the problem again on a new recipe with "parsley" (the plugin is still deactivated and there's been a program restart in between as well) and it wouldn't save unless I misspelled parsley.
- for the above problem, at first I thought it was related to the fractional importing: during a paste operation, the 3/4 wasn't recognized as a fraction and converted to the "3/4 character" and instead stayed as the string "3/4", manually entering "3/4 cup flour", the 3/4 string was converted to the character; entering ".75 cup flour" resulted in 3/4 (character). Sometimes the fraction is converted to a single character, sometimes it's left as a string. It should be consistent.
- when doing ingredient importing, the parsing for TBS and tsp needs to be enhanced to correctly import "T", "T.", "t" and "t." as TBS and tsp. If the ingredient line is "1 T butter" it means "1" "TBS" "butter" not "1" <blank> "T butter".
- there needs to be a way to edit the recipe from the main screen: both r-click menu and kbd shortcut preferred.
- multiple column sorting can get messy real quick. and what's the left-pointing triangle mean? And the sort triangles can't be removed from ranking. weird….
all for now, time for bed….
beelsr - A lot of these behaviors sound different than what I'm used to on Linux, so I think many of these are windows-specific bugs. The normal thing on Linux is to run from the terminal and you usually get useful error output. I forget what the state of logging is on Windows and it sounds like the debug version is maybe broken right now, so that makes it a good bit harder to track down these bugs.
One thought is that it's likely that some of these bugs are unicode related. Do the ingredients that are causing you trouble have any accented characters in them?
The fraction behavior sounds quite puzzling to me. There are a variety of settings about whether your machine can handle unicode fractions (the single character ones) and so forth. Internally, Gourmet only stores numbers, so what's being displayed all goes through a single algorithm, so the display should pretty much always be consistent (in the recipe display view, that is). Gourmet isn't storing one thing for one ingredient and another for a different one (except in the one case you mentioned where the import parser failed and the fraction got included as part of the ingredient name).
As to the enhancements, the T and t should be recognized (I'd thought this had already been addressed actually, but perhaps not).
The main screen recipe editing is tricky - this was enabled in an early version and caused lots of usability problems (people would edit when they meant to open, etc.). However, the "batch edit" plugin allows you to edit any group of attributes for any group of selected recipes, so it actually should do what you want already.
The sorting (arrows, etc) is all standard GTK sorting, so I'm hesitant to change it up since it would break consistency with the linux desktop. It might be worth considering whether it's better to disallow sorting by multiple columns… this would improve usability but inevitably beget a feature request from somewhere to put the multi-column sorting back.
For any really important bugs or feature requests, please actually submit a bug or feature request (one per issue) which lets us keep track of them in an orderly manner. You last post, for example, should be 3 bug reports and 2 feature requests/enhancements.
Richard Beels
1. Yeah, could be windows-specific. I'm moving to a mac in a few months (hopefully) but since most of the world uses windows, a better windows version would help drive deployment of the app. I'm intuitively sure these are windows-specific because, for example, I can't imagine having to resize every window every time would make it this far. There's probably just some default setting that needs to be flipped for that.
2. there are a couple non-standard characters. the degree symbol and the word Châteaubriand. None of the recipes with a degree nor the oh so awesome horseradish encrusted beef tenderloin recipe had a problem importing. I now think the errors with the ingredients were the ingredient name (flour, parsley) and were related to the key editor functionality because once i mis-spelled the ingredients, the recipe could be saved no problem.
3. the batch edit mode is indeed an awesome tool but it isn't exactly what i'm asking for.
4. hmmm, the sorting doesn't seem to work the same as in wireshark but my mind is usually in a different mode when i'm wiresharking so maybe it's me. ah, the engineer's conundrum… :-
I'll hit the 'bugzilla' tracker in a bit. thanks for the reply.
Richard Beels
i now know why some fractions weren't rendering properly. they're not in the unicode table. x/3, x/8 aren't in there. doesn't seem mysterious now…. :-)

Emerging Markets: Another Reason to Be Wary
Brazil mining giant Vale boasts a record that most chief executives can only dream of: year-over-year revenue growth of 127%; earnings growth of 269.5%; a return on assets of 13% and an operating profit margin of nearly 50%. The stock price has tripled since the depths of the financial crisis. So what has been Vale Chief Executive Roger Agnelli's reward?
After years of intrigue, Vale announced this month that Mr. Agnelli will be succeeded by Murilo Ferreira, a former Vale executive.
For Vale shareholders—and that includes just about everybody who owns an emerging-market mutual fund or exchange-traded fund—this may be only a shot across the bow. No one has suggested Mr. Agnelli was removed for incompetence. On the contrary, his very success appears to have made Vale an ever-more-tempting target for political interference.
Vale is the second-largest metals-and-mining company in the world (after Australia's BHP Billiton) and the largest producer of iron ore. It also is one of the 30 largest publicly traded companies. Vale is currently the fifth-largest holding in the $38.2 billion iShares MSCI Emerging Markets Index EEM -0.77 % ETF and the second largest (after Petrobras) in the $13.2 billion iShares MSCI Brazil Index EWZ -4.64 % ETF.
Mr. Agnelli is a native of Sao Paulo who grew up in modest circumstances. He was named Vale's chief executive in 2001. Since then he has shown a shrewd eye for international acquisitions and has steered Vale through a global boom in commodities fueled by Chinese demand. Vale's stock price has increased more than tenfold during his tenure.
Vale, which ended the week at $32.78, has an ownership structure unusual among public companies, though not among former government-owned companies in developing countries. According to Vale, 53.3% of its common shares are owned by Valepar, a holding company, and 6.8% are owned directly by the Brazilian government. Brazil's national development bank owns a stake in Valepar, as do various pension funds, and it is widely perceived as heavily influenced, if not controlled, by the government.
Though the government denies interfering in Vale's affairs, it has been widely reported that Brazilian President Dilma Rousseff and her top ministers orchestrated the ouster.
One of many points of contention between Ms. Rousseff and Mr. Agnelli appears to be the government's interest in boosting employment and investment in Brazil by having Vale expand from its historic roots in mining into labor-intensive steelmaking. Does this make any sense? Arcelor Mittal, MT -3.66 % the world's largest steel producer, has a profit margin of just 3.7% and return on assets of 2.7%. And Arcelor Mittal enjoys massive economies of scale and globally diversified operations. What competitive advantages in steelmaking does Vale offer?
Mr. Agnelli was right to stand firm.
So what does all this mean for investors? If I were a Vale shareholder, I would sell now. There are other ways to invest in the commodities boom, starting with Vale rivals BHP (whose shares I own and have recommended) and Rio Tinto, which is based in the U.K. and Australia.
Government interference, especially to advance social and political goals that have nothing to do with shareholder interests, seems paradoxical when the government is one of the largest shareholders. Yet the pattern seems all too common in many, if not most, countries. This is a pervasive risk in emerging markets with high level of government ownership in publicly traded companies. It is one reason why price/earnings ratios in emerging markets are lower than those in the U.S.
I don't see any reason to cut exposure to emerging-market funds simply because of one incident in Brazil, but such funds have done very well since the financial crisis and it might be time for some prudent rebalancing. Now that a global economic recovery is well underway, investors should be alert: Mr. Agnelli's ouster may not turn out to be an isolated instance of government meddling, in which case investors' romance with Brazil and other emerging markets will quickly fade.

North Korea threatens SouthComment on this story
Geneva - North Korea threatened South Korea with "final destruction" during a debate at the UN Conference on Disarmament on Tuesday, and warned that it could take "second and third steps" after a nuclear test last week.
"As the saying goes a new born puppy knows no fear of a tiger. South Korea's erratic behaviour would only herald its final destruction," South Korean diplomat Jon Yong Ryong told the meeting. - Reuters

Caribbean Cruise with Rick Recipe Coockery Show
In this video, Betty returns to bettyskitchen after a 2-week hiatus. Betty and her husband, Rick, spent 10 days cruising the Caribbean, resting and relaxing, and enjoying cruise activities. This video shows a variety of foods and activities enjoyed on the Noordam ship of the Holland American Line. Sailing out of Fort Lauderdale, Florida, we visited Half-Moon Cay, St. Thomas in the Virgin Islands, Dominica, Curacao, and Aruba. We had a wonderful time, and the food was excellent! It was a nice break to have my food prepared for me! To answer your obvious questions--I gained 1 pound, and Rick gained 4 pounds, but we will easily take the weight off, now that we are not eating such rich food for every meal (and between meals)! Thanks for all the wonderful comments you left me, after I announced that I was taking a break! It is great to be back, and I hope to have a recipe ready to upload tomorrow! I have several Christmas treats planned!

Valentine's Day Red Velvet Cake Recipe Coockery Show
Beat 1 cup butter at medium speed with electric mixer until creamy. Gradually add 2 1/2 cups sugar, continuing to beat until light and fluffy. Add 6 eggs, one at a time, beating just until blended after each addition. Stir together 3 cups self-rising flour and 3 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder. Add to butter mixture alternately with 8 oz. sour cream, beating at low speed just until blended. Stir in 2 teaspoons vanilla and (2) 1-oz. bottles red food coloring. Stir until well blended. Divide batter into 4 equal parts, and pour batter into (4) 9-inch cake pans that have been greased and floured. Use 2 racks to bake the 4 layers in a 350 oven for 20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in each comes out clean. Remove cake pans from oven and set aside and cool to room temperature before frosting. Now, make your Cream Cheese Frosting. You will find an upload for this recipe in bettyskitchen, preceding this upload. Chill the Cream Cheese Frosting, and then assemble your cake. Remove each layer of cake from its pan, one by one, and place them on a nice cake stand. Spread Cream Cheese Frosting between the layers as you assemble your cake. Next, spread Cream Cheese Frosting around the sides of the cake, and finally on top. Swirl the frosting on the top and sides for a nice look. (I put 4 skewers, extending through the layers to make sure the cake would not shift before it had time to set up.) Place the cake in a refrigerator to firm up. This cake takes a lot of space, so you may have to dispense with the skewers or make only a 2-layer cake on a flat cake dish. (I removed a shelf from my refrigerator in order to accomodate the cake, after covering it with plastic wrap.) Keep the cake refrigerated, because the frosting is not meant to sit at room temperature. If you cannot use all of this cake at one time, you may cut it into usable chunks and freeze them. This is a gorgeous cake, and I think you'll love it! Happy Valentine's Day to Rick--and to all of you!!!

Kevin Swanson is a fundamental extremist of the Christian persuasion. On November 6th and 7th, he hosted a pro-murder hate speech rally which was billed as the "National Religious Liberties Conference" in Des Moine, Iowa. Three GOP candidates attended this pro-murder hate speech rally, including Mike Huckabee, Gov. Bobby Jindal, and Sen. Ted Cruz.
Swanson used an archaic interpretation of the Bible as justification for imprisoning and executing homosexuals: "Yes, Leviticus 20:13 calls for the death penalty for homosexuals. Yes, in Romans Chapter 1, Verse 32, the Apostle Paul does say homosexuals are worthy of death — his words, not mine. And I am not ashamed of the gospel of Jesus Christ. And I am not ashamed of the truth, of the word of God. I am willing to go to jail for it…"
Well that's encouraging to hear, Mr.… Read the rest

Hugh Jackman Kisses Amanda Seyfried on the Lips!
Amanda Seyfried is one lucky lady!
At a Les Miserables screening afterparty in New York City Dec. 2, the actress received a kiss on the lips from her costar, Hugh Jackman. The friendly smooch came on the eve of Seyfried's 27th birthday. (Jackman, 44, has been happily married to Deborra-Lee Furness since April 1996.)
PHOTOS: Hugh Jackman's hunky beach body
Throughout the night, Seyfried -- wearing a Marios Schwab dress and Rupert Sanderson shoes -- chatted up costars Anne Hathaway, Eddie Redmayne and Samantha Barks at Porterhouse.
Earlier this year, Seyfried spoke to the Wall Street Journal about playing Cosette, the daughter of Hathaway's Fantine, in director Tom Hooper's Les Miserables.
"I'm so proud of it! I've never done a movie where in the middle of shooting I've been like, 'This is going to be a masterpiece,'" Seyfried said. "A lot of movies don't turn out the way they should these days because of so many elements post-production. But this movie's destined to be a classic."
PHOTOS: Amanda Seyfried's best red carpet looks
The film -- which also stars Russell Crowe, Helena Bonham Carter and Sacha Baron Cohen -- is unique in that each musical number was filmed live, as opposed to being dubbed with a pre-recorded track.
"The fact that Tom Hooper's capturing it in that way, it's the most raw and purest performance that you could possibly get," Seyfried explained. "So I think he's really smart and it's revolutionary."
As for Seyfried's new friendship with Jackman? "He talks about [his wife], he talks about his family -- they come first," she told the Wall Street Journal. "Yet he behaves like his job is the most important thing as well. It's amazing how he can balance it."
Les Miserables is in theaters Dec. 25.

The following was written by Huey, as posted in the BoxRec Forum:
i had my pro debut saturday at the emerald queen casino, tacoma washington fought a very game jose martinez, by his own admission had 7 pro fights in mexico, not sure of his record but he was tuff, i knocked him down in the first round but he got up and i lost focus, im a better boxer then puncher, and the plan was to outbox him, but after iknocked him down, the crowd was on its feet, and all i could think of was getting a ko, i just got cought up in the hype and the excitement, jose felt my pressure, did his best to make me respect his power it turned into a slugfest, ever punch i threw was meant to take him out, i had my flurrys and relaxed a little later, but when i felt his power, i tryed to match it, he broke my nose in the second round, and i was worried the doc might stop the fight, so i did my best to conceal the blood by wipeing it away with my gloves, we traded punches for the rest of the fight, and at the end of the third i was hit in the ear, all i heard was a ringing, and as i write this now i still cant hear out of it, went to the hospital sunday night and it turned out to be a torn ear drum, we beat the crap out of each other for four rounds, but it was worth ever bit of it. i won by split decision in a close tuff fight. the judges had it judge one - 38/37 for huey judge two - 37/38 for martinez judge three - 39/36 for huey split decision for me- im a average joe, i work for the cable company full time, im the dude who fixes your cable tv at three in the morning after a outage.....but, what a feeling to have people coming up to me and asking for a picture and a autograph...
they loved me at that casino, people at the casino though i was a celebrity this weekend, and im a cable guy again today....???..... lifes a trip.... i can see why guys like holyfield stays around too long....the attention and the feeling of the whole expierence is overwhelming....its addicting... its hard to walk away from, i wanted to hang out at the casino all night, just because of the attention i was getting from everyone, giving autographs and taking pictures....... broken nose, turn ear drum and all, it was my wife who finally got me to leave the casino late that night, we went back to the emerald queen casino the next day to eat, and some of the employees were pointing at me again, its no wonder a kid like tyson, or whom ever lose there mind, i only had a small taste of it, they live it everyday.... honestly, i wouldent be able to handle all the fame these guys deal with, in future posts i will have a whole different opinion on fighters, all fighters....... even tyson and zab judah ect. i went out the next day busted up and all and got my tattoo, i had philippians 4:13 "i can do all things thru him who gives me strength" i had this tattooed on my arm few years back, i always wanted a pair of boxing gloves above it. so i said when i get paid for my first pro fight, i will spend some of my purse money to get the gloves put on it....and i did.....well earned. im not sure of the future, i train boxers at the local gym part time, and miss spending time with them, trips to tournaments ect. and in all honesty........ im a average boxer , im not going to win any world championships, or beat hopkins on my best day and his worst, i could proubly beat half the guys out there at the local level, and the other half would beat me,....just being realistic and honest..... but i set a goal for myself and i achieved it, just wanted to be able to say i was a professional boxer, might keep fighting,.... might not...?? dont let anyone, ever talk you out of your dream, i think the only reason i was given this whole expierence, was so i could share it with others, i have some pee wees i train who will be way better then i ever had the potential to be. im blessed now that i have a good job and dont need to fight to eat, alot of thoses guys there did just that, they go fight once or twice a month for a grand or two, a month, im glad i did it, but happy i have other options..... if i fight again i need a goal, not sure what that would be yet though, boxing is a funny sport, full of all sorts of stories, i used to go thru the record archives on this site and see guys with losing records,i wonder there stories, or see a guy with one or two fights and wonder what happened to them.... by looking at the records, you just dont know the story ...??.... i wonder if jose martinez will go on to be good, if someone sees his loss to me, and wonder whatever happened to me, boxings full of stories....boxing to me was more then a fight with jose martinez, it was a fight with myself,.... that was the biggest challenge, opening the fridge and starring at a cold beer and ice cream, and fighting off the urge to eat it, waking up early before work and running 4 miles, or going to the gym, sparring pros with 10 or more fights in a small ring and getting hit with hard punches over and over again, for month after month, if its boxing or what ever it is, if you have a dream, just go threw with it, when its over the pay off no matter what the sacrifice was, it is worth it. my ear should be fine, but if for some reason i never hear out of it again, i wouldent trade my expierece ....not for that or anything else my old tag on boxing.com was....
"boxing has to be gods favorite sport" "look at all the great stories"

An economist says Fiji should expect a decrease in the number of Australians visiting in the next couple of years.
Fiji Broadcasting Corporation reports Australian economist Justin Smirk is visiting Fiji and says his country will be facing economic headwinds in the second half of this year, continuing into 2014.
Mr Smirk says this will constrain household incomes and lower the Australian dollar, and for Fiji, it will impact tourism inflows.
Four per cent of Australians travelling abroad choose Fiji, making up 52 per cent of Fiji's tourist arrivals.
Free. Fair. Fearless. Intelligentsiya is made up of Fiji Islanders who are libertarians in their own way and who cherish the free flow of news, ideas and information and will peacefully resist any attempts by the country's military rulers to stifle free speech. intelligentsiya will also bear witness, report and discuss human rights abuses by the authorities.

OXFORD, Miss. (AP) -- The NCAA has denied Mississippi quarterback Jeremiah Masoli's request for a waiver that would allow him to play immediately, meaning he won't be eligible until 2011.
The school has announced plans to the appeal the ruling, with a response expected in less than a week.
Masoli transferred from Oregon to Mississippi after being kicked off Oregon's team after two run-ins with police.
The senior has already completed his undergraduate degree, and enrolled in Mississippi's Parks and Recreation graduate program. The NCAA will sometimes waive a one-year residency requirement for athletes who are transferring, but enrolling in a graduate program not offered at the previous school.

The film begins with the following written dedication and quotation: "To the men of the Royal Air Force...and to those exiled flyers who still fight for their homelands in England's skies...this story is respectfully dedicated. 'Never before in the field of human conflict have so many, owed so much, to so few....'-Winston Churchill."
The film's working title was Flight Patrol. News items in Hollywood Reporter add the following information about the production: Both Dennis Morgan and Humphrey Bogart tested for parts in the film. Footage of actual fighting between British Spitfires and German Messerschmitts and Heinkels and a London air raid were shot by technicians from Warner Bros.' Teddington studios in London and shipped to the United States for inclusion in the film. This was the last film of actor James Stephenson, who died soon after the film finished shooting. A press release dated April 16, 1941 identifies technical advisor Byron Kennerly as a pilot officer in the Eagle Squadron of the RAF. Lothar Mendes is listed as director in the early Hollywood Reporter production charts and, although Lew Seiler is credited on the screen, both Film Daily and New York Times reviews give directing credit to Mendes. Frank Wead's play was also the basis for the 1936 Warner Bros.' film Ceiling Zero, starring James Cagney and Pat O'Brien and directed by Howard Hawks (see AFI Catalog of Feature Films, 1931-40; F3.0640).

BlogHer developed and leads the marketplace with the most robust economic and networking opportunities for women in social media and brands seeking to engage in authentic and persuasive dialog with them.
Founded in 2005, BlogHer publishes and syndicates news, information, advice and recommendations to and from 3,000 premium blogs, delivers uniquely insightful research on women in social media across interest areas, hosts the world's largest conferences for women in social media and curates a daily news service, BlogHer.com.
The 8th annual BlogHer Conference, the largest audience of influential online women nationwide, will bring 4,000 attendees together with 100 major brand name sponsors and top national media.
The Saturday, August 4th keynote will be the centerpiece of BlogHer '12, placing the soon-to-be talk show host on the other side of the interview table, sharing her plans for the exciting new phase of her storied career. Katie will also welcome questions from the audience during an in-depth Q&A with BlogHer co-founder and CEO, Lisa Stone.
"We are thrilled to host Katie at our annual conference, as she embarks on the next phase of her consistently groundbreaking career," said Elisa Camahort Page, Jory Des Jardins and Lisa Stone, BlogHer co-founders. "We know that Katie's personal and professional journey and her plans to use social media to invigorate the talk show format will resonate with the BlogHer community."
"Katie" begins September 10, and will broadcast live, daily, in front of a studio audience in New York City. The show will use Katie's versatility to have a smart conversation each day that mixes entertainment, information and the stories of the day – a chance for Katie to talk with people about the topics that matter most. "Katie" will have a significant digital component that allows not just viewers, but the online community to engage before, during, and after each episode. The website will feature user-generated content alongside the show's own show and social content to foster a community that really allows for sharing, connecting, and engagement.
"I have been a supporter and follower of BlogHer for some time now, and recognize the influence of the women who are a part of this incredible network," said Katie Couric. "As we plan for my new show, we're looking to communities like BlogHer for ideas, input, and conversation. I'm busy this summer getting ready for our first show in September, and being a part of BlogHer is one of the things I'm most excited about."
BlogHer '12 takes place from August 2nd-August 5th in New York City. To register for the conference, please visit: http://blogher12.eventbrite.com
