* "No one calls me Justice Sotomayor and no one calls Justice Kagan Justice Ginsberg. It's an exhilarating change." Back in the day, people used to mistake the Notorious RBG for Justice Sandra Day O'Connor. How rude. [WSJ Law Blog (sub. req.)]
* Eversheds, the national U.K. law firm that sounds like it's an outdoor storage emporium, has elected a new chairman. Congrats to Paul Smith, who specializes in environmental law, and will begin his four-year term on May 1. [Am Law Daily]
* In his last year of service, California Treasurer Bill Lockyer will moonlight in Brown Rudnick's Irvine office. Critics think this move "looks and smells bad." If it's brown, flush it down? [Bloomberg]
* Down 11 percent from last year, this fall, law schools enrolled the fewest amount of students since 1975, when there were only 163 ABA-accredited schools. Too bad tuition's still so high. [National Law Journal]
* Aaron Hernandez is now facing a wrongful death suit filed by Odin Lloyd's family. Without anything else to say about this sports-related legal news, here's a picture of Elie Hernandezing. [Associated Press]
* George Zimmerman is an artiste extraordinaire, and one of his paintings is currently for sale on eBay where the price has been bid up to $110,100. The guy's almost as talented as George W. Bush. [CNN]

* Man, for a four-seeded firm that got knocked out of our March Madness competition after the Sweet Sixteen, Davis Polk is looking great in 2013′s first quarter as far as legal advising in M&A deals goes. [Am Law Daily]
* Brown Rudnick picked up a California boutique, and it'll be doubled in size through lateral hiring. No layoffs are currently expected, but no one really advertises that as a merger selling point. [National Law Journal]
* The New York Times: bringing you last month's news, today! South Dakota is offering a subsidy for law school tuition to keep lawyers in the state. Here's our post from two weeks ago. [New York Times]
* Pace Law School's "low bono" residency program was praised by New York's Chief Judge Jonathan Lippman, but if you've got other job offers, Dear Lord, take one of them. [New York Law Journal]
* AIG wants to prevent Hank Greenberg from suing in its name, probably because it'd prefer not to be known as "the poster company for corporate ingratitude and chutzpah." [DealBook / New York Times]

* The Ninth Circuit is supposed to be issuing an order today regarding an en banc reconsideration request on the Prop 8 case. They really ought to slap a big fat denial on that motherf'er and call it a day so we get some SCOTUS action. [Poliglot / Metro Weekly]
* Matthew Kluger, most recently of Fried Frank, has been sentenced to 12 years in prison, which is the longest sentence that anyone's ever received in an insider trading case. Uh yeah, he'll definitely be appealing. [Wall Street Journal (sub. req.)]
* Hughes Hubbard & Reed has billed more than $17M in the first four months of its work on MF Global's unwinding. Will the firm will be handing out spring "special" bonuses like they did last year? [Reuters]
* Mattel is appealing MGA's $310M copyright award, claiming that the judgment was based on "erroneous billing invoices." Don't you call my billable hours into question, Kathleen Sullivan. [National Law Journal]
* Jerry Sandusky's accusers will be named in court thanks to this judge's ruling. But don't worry — there's no tweeting, texting, or emailing allowed in his courtroom. Like that'll make a difference. [Legal Intelligencer]
* Trust me, I'm a lawyer: a disbarred Colorado attorney somehow managed to scam a convicted con artist out of more than $1 million. Now that's some pretty sweet karmic intervention for you. [Missouri Lawyers Media]
* A bus driver is suing a hospital because he claims that instead of treating his painful erection, the staff watched a baseball game on TV. Whatever, that was a really great Yankees game. [Associated Press]
9/11, Brown Rudnick, War on Terror
This weekend, we (and every other media outlet) ran our solemn 9/11 remembrance post. In any event, yesterday was the predictable day where the media took a closer look at the aftermath of 9/11. And by "closer look," we mean "report on everything that's gone horribly wrong since 9/11." Elie Mystal has got a really heartwarming story from a law firm that he wants to share before he "takes a closer look" at the week after 9/11….

Brown Rudnick Shows Steven Pesner How to Inspire Time Keeping Compliance
Last month, we profiled Steven Pesner, a partner at Akin Gump who sounded like an egomaniac while threatening associates who did not promptly enter in their time. Prior to Pesner, Simpson Thacher threatened to dock the pay of timekeepers who are delinquent. Entering time is important, but sometimes you can get more flies with honey […]
Nationwide Layoff Watch: Brown Rudnick Takes A Big Dig At Attorneys
The Boston-based law firm Brown Rudnick is the latest to sacrifice associates to the global economic crisis. Yesterday they parted ways with 20 attorneys, 3 paralegals, and 20 other staffers. But the anticipation might have been worse than the hammer. Brown Rudnick told associates they were laying people off before anybody was actually laid off. […]

Okay, I'll start it!
As long as I understand how it works- I guess I just post a thread in life with a babe and call it- what?
Feb DDC moms? or I guess Feb 2010 DDC moms?
What do I call it?
And then at what point do I have to redo it- like- how many pages can it get?
If we all keep chatting like we do here (which I really hope we do!!!) then it will get long pretty quick.
how exactly does it work?
I don't mind starting it but I want to make sure I do it right so we can all find eachother over there!!
I think I will start it right now and then I can edit the title if someone tells me a better title!
Here I go!
Happileigh already started it!
Good job!
gotta keep the chatting up - this is a great group of us.

While you were in the middle of watching a romance movie with Yekaterina, you suddenly felt an odd feeling. You rushed to the bathroom and vomitted on the sink. 'Oh God...' you told yourself. You got out of the bathroom and told Yekaterina what happened.
"Could it be you're... Pregnant?!" her eyes widened in anticipation.
"W-We can't tell that for now" you said, slightly smiling while scratching the back of your head.
You two went to the clinic to get consulted.
"Do your best, __!" she said with puppy eyes.
"Hey hey, I'm still getting checked, save that when I'm about give birth~"
You sat down on the chair and faced the doctor.
"So, how are you feeling these days?" she asked.
"Hmm... I don't feel anything suspicious, I feel normal on the past few days but what I just did earlier... I vomitted..." you facepalmed.
"How about an ultrasound then?" she suggested.
"Yes, it's necessary for married women"
"Come on __! I really want to know if you're pregnant!" Yekaterina said, pushing you to the curtained room and forced you to lay down.
The pediatrician started the session, she was scanning your belly.
"Oh look, look! There really is a baby!!!"
"You're right..." you said, amazed.
"Congratulations, you're pregnant" the pediatrician smiled at you.
"I'm sure Ivan will be happy!" Yekaterina squealed, more excited than you are.
You two home after that, Yekaterina was talking non-stop and asking you interesting things like, "What name are you gonna name it?!" or "When you're gonna deliver the baby?!"
"Now, let's plan a schedule!" she said, acting as if she were your mother.
"Schedule for what?"
"Schedule for ultrasound! And plan what you will it from now on! Of course, no sweets!"
"I'm okay with the ultrasound sessions but am I really forbidden to eat sweets?! Anything but that!"
"No no no!" she shook her head.
"And... Why don't you start wearing dresses?"
"My belly hadn't grow yet, it's way too early!"
"No!" she pushed you to a room, forcing you again, to wear a white dress this time!
"Ohohoho~ it really fits you!"
"Seriously, do I have to wear this?"
"Of course! You're pregnant after all!"
It was about her time to leave, Yekaterina packed all the sweets and junk foods you have in the refrigerator and planning to bring them home. Of course, she even replaced them by fresh raw vegetables and fresh fruits.
"Are you sure you can be by yourself? I can stay a little more longer until Ivan comes" she said, with a worrying voice.
"I'll be fine. Your boss will get mad if you don't go home right? Besides, Ivan will go home soon"
"Just contact me if anything happens okay?"
"Okay okay~"
You closed the door and head to the kitchen to cook dinner.
'My sweets... I'm going to miss you, sweets!' you felt yourself like an idiot. 'Cut it out!' Yekaterina also told you not to eat too-greasy foods. So you had no choice but to eat vegetables while your husband is having fun eating "delicious" foods! After a while, Ivan went home. His suit is still clean, how arranged it was, is out question. Tie lowered, Three buttons undone.
"What's up with that cute dress?" he wrapped his arms on your waist.
"Are you mocking me?"
"Eh? In a bad mood?"
"Not really..." you sighed.
"So what?"
"I'm... Pregnant..."
"Oh?! Really?!"
"Should I repeat it?"
Ivan expressed his excitedness through kisses. He said he's the happiest man alive.
"Did you go out for an ultrasound?" he asked.
"Yes, I never knew I'm 2 months pregnant"
"So our hardwork has finally been paid off eh~?"

Melt-in-Your-Mouth Chocolate Chip Cookies
I love chocolate chip cookies and have taken the basic Nestle Tollhouse cookies and changed the recipe a little to make them melt in your mouth like butter.
Melt-in-Your-Mouth Chocolate Chip Cookies
- 2 1/4 c. all-purpose flour
- 1 tbs. dough enhancer
- 1 tsp. baking soda
- 1 tsp. salt
- 3/4 c. granulated sugar
- 3/4 c. packed brown sugar
- 1 c. unsalted butter at room temperature
- 1 tsp. mapeline flavoring
- 2 large eggs at room temperature
- 12 oz. semi-sweet chocolate chips
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees. In a small bowl mix the flour, dough enhancer, baking soda, and salt. Set aside. Cream the granulated sugar, brown sugar, butter, and mapeline flavoring with an electric mixer. Once the butter mixture is creamy, incorporate one egg at a time, mixing well between additions. Slowly add the dry ingredients. Once everything has been mixed together, stir in the chocolate chips. Spoon onto an ungreased cookie sheet in 1 tbs. balls. Bake in the oven for 8.5 minutes. Bring out the cookie sheet and let cool on the sheet for two more minutes before placing on a wire rack to cool. Enjoy!

what kind of dough enhancer ? and is mapeline flavoring different than maple flavoring? I love trying new chocolate chip cookie recipes, thanks
idcakegirl on
This is the dough enhancer I use:
And Mapleline is the same as maple flavoring. My husband always jokes that he feels like he's getting two deserts in one (a maple bar and a chocolate chip cookie)! :)

Glazed Fruit Reviews
Here's what our customers thought:
Most are very loyal and keep coming back to shop at Nuts.com!
Showing 1-100 of 315.
The goodies arrived safe & sound. I looked for glazed lemons and glazed orange all over town. I was thrilled to find you web site. I can't wait to make my favorite ginger fruit bread. I'll keep your web site on fileNancy, Chatsworth, Ca
January 2, 2015
Wow! That was fast! I didn't think I would be able to bake my favorite Christmas cookies this year. I couldn't find diced citron anywhere! I'm sure happy I found your company online!Brenda, Glendora, CA
December 3, 2014
My package arrived yesterday. I found everything packed nicely and better then I expected. Enjoyed your sense of humor and the mailing box was cute - I am saving it to show friends. DonitaDonita, Big Pine Key, Fl
October 31, 2014
I am one of the dwindling number of people who make fruitcakes in the fall -- this requires MANY POUNDS of dried fruits and nuts, which can get expensive. I always shop around, but have found that NUTS.COM is consistently low price and high quality -- and you even have hard-to-find items like candied citron! Thank you.Lefty, Leverett, MA
October 21, 2014
WOW what a great company!!! Discovered this wonderful site about 2 years ago and we adore your products!!! This time around we got candied peels (can't start baking too soon for Xmas) as well as organic Dried Dragon fruit (super yummy) and hoorah for organic Milk Thistle seeds. What a terrific healthful addition to so many baked and cooked items!!!! Always 100%+++++!!! We're just NUTS for you guys!!!!d.r., conway, nh
October 17, 2014
Since I am making fruitcakes this year, I opened my bags of dried and candied fruit immediately and started cutting and measuring. And tasting. One of the cakes I make is traditional, with diced, candied peel, etc. I have never tasted candied orange or lemon peel that is as good as yours. Both have a very, strong citrus taste, rather than the disgusting syrupy, sugary taste of most commercially-made peels. Delicious! But the real surprise was the citron. I don't like any citron that I've ever used in the past. I only use it because most traditional fruitcake recipes call for it. Yours is wonderful, really tasty and citrony The best! The other cake is a chocolate fruitcake, with lots of Grand Marnier and cognac and almost no flour. For those cakes I use dried fruit - apricots, peaches, prunes, dates, etc. Needless to say (but I'll say it anyway) your dried fruits were delicious, tender (easy to cut up) and I can't wait to try the cake. Alas, that won't be for several months, until all the liquor is soaked in. Anyway, thanks so much for such wonderful products.Victoria, Vermillion, SD
September 12, 2014
Delivery was very fast. The candied fruit was nice and moist and fresh. The poppy seeds were good too. Definitely would buy from you again.Sue, San Diego, CA

I can't find candied citron peel anywhere else, and I make lebkuchen year round. You folks are a godsend.Alice, Youngsville, LA
May 30, 2014
All products I have purchased in the past have exceeded any I buy at the local grocery stores here. Everything is 100% high quality and fresh. I just love shopping here. I can get my candied fruit for my Christmas cakes I bake every year in October for baking in Nov. The local stores never have these products that soon!Barbara, Wingate, NC
May 23, 2014
Hi Jeffrey, I live in Canada and was searching for an online store that sells Candied lemon and orange peels. i found your web site and was impressed at the way items were presented. The prices for the items also impressed me. i decided to try the items as a gift to my sister who lives in a rural area near Port Jervis, NY. She has received the parcel today May 15th 2014. Your service was very fast and i am happy that i found your site. Keep up the good work. johnJohn, Red Deer, Alberta

The figs were tender & delicious & the glazed fruit was just as we hoped, can't wait to bake. So pleased we no longer need to wait for Christmas to get it. Thanks!antoinette, Delray Beach, Florida
April 30, 2014

April 25, 2014
Uncle Sandy, Cousin David, Dad, Wow what service. Placed an order, received it the next day. I was going nuts trying to find citron in my area stores. I'm glad I found your web site, I will be telling my friends about it. Thank you for making it possible to find my Easter baking ingredients. Looking forward to doing business again. Thank you for the excellent service.George, Sauquoit, NY

March 17, 2014
Candied Fruit arrived! Now I can make my mother's recipe for Fruit Cake Bars anytime...don't have to wait for Christmas season & grocery stores to supply the fruit. Thanks for the prompt service. Enjoyed the notes on the box!Mildred, Dunwoody, Georgia
March 11, 2014
Grandmother turned 98 on 2/25/14. We started doing videos of Granny making old family recipes and she wanted to make a fruit cake. The freshness of the candied items we ordered can not be matched. This is a most excellent store with offerings that will help to fill many of our orders! Thank you!WandaLou G. McInturff, Jacksonville, Florida
February 25, 2014
Thank you so much! I was unable to find the glazed fruit I needed to make a special cookie for my boss. I was at my wits end to locate the fruit in any store, but then I found your website. My boss will be so surprised and pleased to get his special request cookie. I will make certain all my friends are aware of your site. Also, the little gift of Figs was so unexpected...YUMkimberly, La Puente, Ca
February 7, 2014
My daughters are coming to visit me for my 70th birthday and requested that I make fruitcake...they want more than what I made for Christmas. I could not find the candied fruit. Then I found you. I will never purchase the mix from a grocery store again. Yours is beautiful.Jean, Williamsburg, VA
February 1, 2014
Oh my gosh...couldn't believe I got them so FAST! I am using them (Candied Cherries) in chocolate marshmallow hearts for Valentines Day! They look yummy! Thanks!Dawn, Medina, Ohio
January 28, 2014
I have already used some of the candies for my Christmas fruit bars. The cherries are so fresh, not like the ones bought in grocery stores. My husband told me the cookies were better than any fruitcake. They even arrived one daily. Thank You for having these in stock.Sandra, Lenoir City, Tn
January 11, 2014
I just received my first order from your company, and I am pleased. The orange peels are much bigger and more favorable than the company where I had previously purchased them, along with a much better cost. I also like the vibrant colors of your packaging, it gives your company a unique look.Denise, Mount Vernon, Ohio
January 3, 2014
Hey! You're a day early! Wasn't expecting until tomorrow. So, you're off to a VERY good start. I'll be doing my baking over the weekend, so when I'm finished, I'll get back to you on how pleased (or not pleased) we are with taste.Emma, Cleveland, OH
January 2, 2014
No one in our area carries pure candied citron (an essential ingredient for the Christmas bread that I make). My order for citron arrived on time and absolutely fresh and flavorful. I will never again buy the sticky, tasteless product that's sold as "candied fruit" in stores here. Thanks!Caroline, Raleigh, NC
December 18, 2013
Thank you so much for the speedy delivery. I have many Christmas stollens to make and now I can get started. I tasted the candied fruit, it is so good I could eat it right out of the bagElaine, Glendale, N.Y.
December 16, 2013
Geeeez, I'm tryin to bake here! With perfectly sized citron. Thank you!! My cookies have never tasted so goooood!!!! Merry Christmas!! Chrissy D.Christine
December 15, 2013
Very pleased with candied mixed fruit! Excellent quality!! Found my mom's long-lost fruitcake recipe....already baked them up and in the process of "lacing" them. A welcome blast from my childhood :-)Sue, Inverness, IL
December 7, 2013
I have NOT been able to find citron. Thanks so much. My order arrived as expected which is surprising for my small WY town. It is soft and I love the bag that I can reseal.Patty Kemper, Dayton, WY
December 6, 2013
I just received my first order and must say I'm very, very impressed with the efficiency of the order process and the speedy delivery. I'm really pleased that I now know where I can purchase candied citron at holiday time since it's no longer available locally. You offer a great variety of other products as well.

November 26, 2013
Received my order of candied lemon and orange peel VERY fast. Good quality, delicious and at a great price. I have always ordered from King Arthur Flour for my Christmas baking needs, but their prices are outrageous. I will be buying from Nuts.com from now on. Thank you!Grace, Chicago, IL
November 23, 2013
You guys are "abfav"! (That's Absolutely Fabulous (an old show in Great Britain about an Publicist and her crazy Boozy Magazine Editor) ! I love the lingo in the email chatter. I ordered the mixed peel for my English Husband so he can make his Christmas Cakes and finding your company was a God Send! (We won't have tasted the goods until after Christmas so fingers crossed that the fruits will be as good as the excellent, unparalleled service and the attention to each order! Thank you for my "little sumthin" on the side! MERRY CRUNCHING TO ALL AND TO ALL A GOOD NUT! From, Sandy, Big English and Ms. Caroline (my Mom)!Sandra, Yorktown Heights, NY

I found Nuts.com while trying to find a place to buy candied lemon peel. I am amazed at how fast my order was acknowledged, shipped, and arrived. I have never dealt with a company that is so dedicated to customer satisfaction. This is like finding heaven on earth, and the product was absolutely perfect. I will definitely be shopping here more in the future. Thank you for such a pleasant experience.Ann, Flower Mound, TX
November 16, 2013
I ordered citron (hard to find around here) and also some orange peel. Both are very fresh and perfect size dice for Christmas baking. Thanks guys!Barb, San Diego, Ca
November 15, 2013
Speedy delivery! Wow! I usually make my own candied orange peel because it is difficult to find anything in the grocery stores that is actually decent. It is also difficult to find a source of the good stuff that you don't have to buy gobs and gobs of in order tyo buy it from them. NOW I have a source for them. Thanks! SharonSharon, Catonsville, Maryland
November 11, 2013
The glazed cherries look fantastic!! I'm sure they will be perfect in my cakes. Looking forward to ordering from your company again.Mary Lou, Trumbull, CT
November 9, 2013
Thanks for the quick delivery of my products, they arrived a day earlier than predicted! It is always a pleasure to open your packages, all the products are super fresh and high quality and - very affordable! Also, I get products on Nuts.com I cannot find anywhere else here in stores, like bulk packages of poppy seeds, or glazed lemon peel. Being from Europe I am happy to have found you, I can finally make my favorite cakes again!Gertrud, Houston, TX
November 6, 2013
As a Brit I was desperate to find glacé cherries & mixed peel in order to make my Christmas cakes for my US friends. My order was delivered very fast and the cherries were the best I have ever had, here and in the UK. The cakes are made and everyone's happy. Oh yes, love the amusing packaging, made me smile. Will certainly recommend you to my fellow Brits and friends.Jane, Alexandria, Va
November 5, 2013
The glace cherries and the candied citrus peel have been delivered, chopped and added to the wine and rum for my Jamaican Black Cake. The fruit looked beautiful and was delivered very quickly. I could not find it locally. It will be a few weeks before I can bake the cake but I'm drooling already. Thank you, you Nuts!Susan, Las Vegas, NV
October 17, 2013
I cannot wait to make fruit cakes. The fruit looks wonderful and very fresh. I am so happy I found you nutty people!!Phyllis, Huntersville, North Carolina
October 17, 2013
Thanks, the annual Christmas cakes are made. We love your dried fruits as they are fresh and not dried out. Hard to find some of the ingredients in the local stores. My recipe is from a great aunt about 100 yrs old and we make it every year.Myrna, Georgetown, Texas
October 14, 2013
Wow! my candied fruit is here already - now I have to wait for my sister to give me the recipe for the wonderful fruit bread she makes in her bread machine. I just bought myself a bread machine just for that. Thanks for the bonus pumpkin seeds. That was very nice of you.Eileen, Renton, WA
October 9, 2013
Everything was just perfect. Fresh and very tasty. Now we are ready to make our fruit cake for the holidays.Theodore, tallahassee, fl

My citron arrived promptly, in a quite fanciful box. It should make yummy lebkuchen cookies to send to my family for Christmas. Next time I'll try some of your 'nuttier' offerings!Pat, Franklin, TN
October 3, 2013
Thanks for the lemon, orange and citron that are crucial for my family tradition of Lebkuchen cookies for Christmas time. It has gotten impossible to find these fresh ingredients in my City that is known for having everything and more. Turns out Nuts.com has everything and more!!! Also, it arrived quick and on time. Thank you again!Jennifer, SF, CA
September 28, 2013
Local stores have very little stock of candied fruit and currents needed for older, traditional recipes for fruitcake and mincemeat. Nuts did have what I needed to finish my mincemeat and get it marinating! 3 day shipping is just fine for these things.James, New Castle, Kentucky
September 25, 2013
You are the BEST!! I am in the middle of a kitchen remodel so life is messy. I ordered ingredients for the Christmas cakes so I would not forget in the next 6 weeks when new cabinets, ovens, etc. are being delivered and installed. I was so surprised and happy to find your package on my doorstep this afternoon. I have tucked the fruits away to use for my first baking in the new ovens. Many thanks.Linda, Akron, Ohio
August 23, 2013
WOW. The shipment arrived very quickly. I immediately opened the cherries to sample them They are fabulous!!Rebecca, Hilton Head Island, SC

June 28, 2013
Nuts.com is the best. I ordered on a Thursday morning and received my order Friday afternoon. The quality of your products are the best. I don't order anywhere else --only from Nuts. The stuff in the stores is pretty vile compared to the quality and freshness of your products. Thank you, thank you, thank you. Johanna K.Johanna, East Stroudsburg, PA
June 24, 2013
My order has arrived and the candied orange and lemon peel plus glace cherries taste amazing! I was in "desperate" need!! I couldn't find a new source for my fruit cake ingredients until Nuts.com. Thank you so much for three great products. An old English tradition is to serve fruit cake at weddings. I took this one step further and every year, for the past 10 years, I have recreated the fruit cake I baked for my cousin and her husband for their August Wedding Anniversary. Everyone knows that a fruit cake lasts forever.. the hope for every marriage. With your help, the magic will continue!Gail, Fremont, CA
June 16, 2013
We recently ordered the glazed mixed peel for our very popular traditional Rum Fruitcake that we serve in our Jamaican restaurant. It is by far the freshest, most vibrant and colorful fruitcake mix we've ever seen. We'll be ordering again!Janay, Houston, TX
May 18, 2013
The mixed glazed fruit we ordered is perfect....so moist. We have already made stollen using it and it's delicious! Thank you for having this product available year-round.Patricia
May 8, 2013
Received candied cherries yesterday and they taste great. We are going to create a confection from an old secret family recipe and, hopefully, sell these at a very popular weekend market. If this works out, we will contact you for more products from Nuts.com. Thanks, BillBill, Stone Mountain, Georgia
April 11, 2013
Thanks for delivering so fast. You saved the day. I needed the citron to make rice pies and couldn't find it anywhere. 3 pies were made today and will be eaten on Sunday. I will definitely keep you guys in mind when I need something and I will make sure I let other people know. Thanks again, JudiJudi
March 29, 2013
I have already bought from your company glazed orange peel, glazed lemon peel, pistachios, cocoa beans and pecans, they was the best i have ever seen and taste, you have the best quality ever in any place in the world. ThanksKhader, San diego, Ca
March 28, 2013
I needed to get citron to make a family Easter tradition, sweet ricotta pie. I searched locally for the citron, but was not able to find it. I ordered it from Nuts.com on Wednesday hoping it would get here in time for me to make my pies for Easter and true to their word the package arrived the next day. I will be making the pies tomorrow after work. Thank you Nuts.com for helping me keep the family tradition going. I will be ordering from you again very soon.Sandra, Saugus, MA
March 28, 2013

March 27, 2013
Thank you very much for shipping the products so promptly. Great quality. You saved my traditional easter. Well i bake an Easter italian cake called Colomba and i needed orange peel and citron.

March 9, 2013
I really love the dried fruits. They are all so moist and tasty. Can't stop eating them! The citron, lemon and orange peels are great. I don't think you could find better. I bought the dried persimmon this time because I got them as a sample last time. DELISH! This time we got dried strawberries as a sample. To tell you the truth, I'm not really a strawberry fan BUT.... Guess what I'm going to order next time? :) Thanks!Kae, Midland, TX
March 1, 2013
Thank you for the cherries and mix peel that I ordered from you. The delivery was so fast and the cherries and peel are excellent!! The best quality ever and I will never buy anywhere else but from Nuts.com. Thanks again for the high quality products.Alta

February 23, 2013

I ordered candied citron and candied lemon peel for baking my Christmas stollen bread; it tasted wonderful! I also indulged in a huge bag of my all-time favorite Brazil nuts. They were so good I plan to do that again soon--no more frustrating searches through the mixed nuts to find them!Hillary, Portsmouth, Va.
February 2, 2013
For Christmas I bought a tub of mixed candied peel at the supermarket, and it was absolutely vile. It had a medicinal smell and taste..I poured boiling water over to remove the preservatives, but it still tasted bad. Ordered the glazed mixed peel yesterday, and it arrived today. Delicious right out of the bag, and my fruitcake is now in the oven.Christine, Boston, MA
January 19, 2013

My order of fruit cake fixin's arrived today. Everything looks wonderful. Thanks to you many people will have REAL fruitcake with actual fruit and nuts. It's pretty tempting to just eat everything instead of baking! The sample sizes are brilliant, too. Now I can place a larger order for some things since I know how good they are. Thanks!Robin, Prattsburgh, NY

Wow, I was impressed with how fast my order arrived. The glazed fruit and golden raisins look yummy. I will be baking my Christmas fruitcakes this weekend. Love the company's cute marketing. Merry Christmas!Sheri, Roswell, GA

November 15, 2012
I ordered early, thinking that things would be delayed due to the hurricane. Imagine my surprise when it took only the usual two days! I stocked up for Christmas baking, and got some sweets. The Turkish Delight is amazing, and the fruit slices are wonderful as usual. Dad loved the sample of the pistachios! This has become my go-to nut and candy shopping place. Not only are the prices great, the products fresh, there is a wide variety to choose from and the customer service is phenominal!Rebecca, St Louis, Missouri
November 10, 2012
Wow! I can't believe my order arrived so rapidly! The cherries & citron look wonderful! I ordered them to try in some special family recipes and can hardly wait to start baking. And a special thanks for the sample of strawberries. YUM!!Constance, Teaticket, MA
November 9, 2012
Dear Nuts.com, My order arrived today. First, thank you for the sample of the Turkish figs. They are delicious. Second, I immediately opened both the glace cherries and pineapple packages just to see. Wonderful! I have been baking for over 50 years and making fruit cakes for the last ten years. YOUR QUALITY IS SUPERIOR. Let me say why. First, it is not easy to buy glaceed fruits, particularly pineapple, even in this big metropolitan area of ours. Wegman's is decent but not as good as yours. Second, one year I was so disgusted with the quality of the candied pineapple that I ended up making my own, which was not bad but on the whole not so good as yours. I like the packaging and I could tell right away that the fruits were VERY MOIST, and furthermore they taste like what they are supposed to be. If you ever come to our fair city (we were not hard hit by Sandy) please come see my wife and me and we will provide fruitcake and tea. Respectfully, Grant Greapentrog P.S. I look forward to ordering more. What a pleasure to deal with a superior organization and a fabulous product.Grant, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania
November 1, 2012
I ordered mixed peel Friday to make some traditional English Christmas cakes. I got a message to say that it would ship on on Monday, 29 October 2012. I live in the Northeast and after losing power and all communications myself, I just assumed that I might never get my mixed peel- let alone on time. Poor New Jersey! And yet UPS just left the box on my doorstep absolutely on time as if there had been no Hurricane Sandy! The taste is great and I'm expecting some really good Christmas cakes. Hope all is well with you- really. Thank you.Meg, Newport, RI
October 30, 2012
I just purchased some red candied cherries to make our annual Christmas fruitcake. The packaging is great! I was pleasantly surprised when I opened them. The aroma was sweet and oh so fresh. The cherries were gooey and plump, I know they will make this a fruitcake to remember.I used to purchase my cherries from the grocery store but now I have a new place to shop. The delivery was very quick and arrived as on the due date. Kudos to one and all @Nuts.com. I will certainly be back to order some of your other items very soon.Linda, LaGrange, IL
October 28, 2012
I couldn't find citron at any of my local store. The product I got today has better texture and flavor than anything I've ever got from the grocery store. I will be ordering my supplies here in the futureyascoli

Second year of using nuts.com and am totally satisfied with products and excellent service.Richard, Snellville, GA

Like anything new and exciting, I started using Spark People with high hopes. I used the food and exercise trackers everyday and I was extremely motivated to stay on track. The first two weeks were smooth sailing. Then I hit a giant bump in the road. I received a phone call from my step-mother saying that my father was in the hospital and on life support. My family and I spent the next week in the hospital waiting for my father to get better. While in the hospital I did not have the stability of homemade food and took comfort in pizza, donuts, candy, and fast food. I was also unable to make it to the gym, which is not only a place to exercise, but it is where I release all of my stress for the day. Not only did I feel upset because my father was very sick, but I also felt guilty for not staying on track. And when I experience stress, depression, and guilt I tend to use food to make myself feel better.
A close friend of mine really helped me put things into perspective. I shouldn't feel guilty about not keeping track of my calorie intake and missing exercising for a few day. I should continue to focus on taking care of my father and being there for my family. And I have realized that I need to find another way to deal with my emotions other than using food.
My father is off life support and on the road to recovery and I am starting to use the food and exercise trackers again. Whether you are dealing with illness, stress, depression, or weight loss, it is important to take things one day at a time.

In Reply: In response to Dr Bierma-Zeinstra
and colleagues, patient compliance was defined as the percent of tablets taken
(according to patient report) relative to the number prescribed, an accepted
and common method of compliance measurement in clinical trials.1
Percent compliance for each patient was calculated as the mean percent compliance
of the 4 bottles of blinded study medication, irrespective of treatment group
to which the patient was assigned. Since more than the number of tablets needed
to complete the study were included in each bottle (to ensure sufficient drug
in case of accidental losses), if a patient took more tablets than prescribed,
the percent compliance would be greater than 100% (this was uncommon). Descriptive
statistics for percent compliance for patients randomized to treatment who
provided efficacy data are shown in the Table 1.

My company looks to write people up because they fight all claims my question is what do I do if written up sign or don't sign
Whether you sign or do not sign a written warning should be dictated by the form. Somewhere on the form it should state what signing it means.
If you want to cut to the chase .. ask the employer if signing the form means you agree with what is stated on it or if you may attach a statement disagreeing which will be added to your personnel file because if you are being warned and you disagree, nothing should go unanswered.
You can also look to your employee handbook. Refusing to sign might be grounds for immediate termination for insubordination.
In either case, I believe that when you disagree with a written warning it is your responsibility to counter document your disagreement. The goal should be to have the employer attach your documentation to the warning.
Of course your disagreement needs to be legitimate.
There is nothing sadder than an unemployment claimant who was passive at the time they were being warned, not being able to "prove" a legitimate reason for disagreement which calls for the employer's contention of misconduct to be scrutinized.
Let's take for example someone written up for attendance, but the absence was due to a health issue .. maybe a child being sick. You need to state either on the written warning itself or

I certainly hope she had some help connecting-up to all those cables...looks like it'd be a pain to do alone...
*giggles* i did wonder at that, too - but then noticed they all connect to the plate which then goes against her spine behind the open access panel Sort of like a docking station
Ahhh, <<noddz>> much less OUCHIE that way...some of those cables look a bit hefty...
Did you ever get to putting together a back-story for this piece? I'd be interested in seeing it anyways.
Did you ever get to putting together a back-story for this piece? I'd be interested in seeing it anyways.
i'm afraid that story may take a while to surface - the last time this happened it turned into a bit of an epic journey, which i am only now reaching the third way through point after nearly two years But, there's a good chance it'll happen, and if it does... i'll try and remember to reply to those who registered an interest so they may see it
Many thankies!
And here we go - leinir.deviantart.com/art/Geik… was submitted but a few moments ago i'm now unsure of her name... and there's a few details that i'm similarly unsure of... but yup, there you go
One Acronym comes to my mind: G.I.T.S. The connection is made because of the tubes and cables which remind me of the Cyberbody building scenes in Shirow's most known work. However, this is a different being here, and the environment has much more light than the liquid tanks used when Kusanagi Motoko has been created. But nonetheless, the sterile, machine-laden space and the glassy eyes give an eerie feel common to both. One wonders what this creature has been designed for.

i have to say, she has managed to capture Curacao in true expert style, here - and in fact, she has managed to solidify the character to a high degree as well. She was, until this happened, lacking any sort of coherent background story, and was sort of just a lizard Geisha... But with this, suddenly, she has become so much more than that Writing shall happen on this topic
She sure has. ^_^

His Deep Ecology Foundation and other American foundations give millions of dollars every year to environmental groups to oppose HidroAysen, other electricity projects, and economic development in Chile. They also bought land in Chile. They say it was to "preserve ecosystems and genetic banks." It was really to create kayaking and hiking areas for themselves, and block north-south travel, transmission lines, economic development and true social equity in Chile.
The foundations and activist groups are all corporations. They should operate according to the CSR standards they demand for profit-making corporations. But Tompkins and his corporations believe they should be held to different standards.
They think they should be allowed to exaggerate or misrepresent science, use scare stories that have no basis in fact, and be less than honest about what they are doing. They see no need to be transparent about who is getting paid how much by whom to oppose electricity and economic progress.
They think they have a right to dictate Chile's future, keep families from achieving their economic dreams, and reduce government revenues and people's living standards, by preventing new development.
In Uganda, Ghana, South Africa, and other impoverished countries – where 95% of the people never have electricity or have it only a few hours a week – the same environmental groups and their allies block electricity development, prevent the use of insecticides that could save millions of lives from malaria, and oppose modern seeds and agriculture that could reduce malnutrition and save more lives.
These foundations and environmental groups think they should not be held accountable for their dishonest and unethical actions, or the harm they cause to jobs, health and lives of people in these countries.
The fact is, their campaign against energy and economic development is based largely on deceptive, misleading and blatantly false claims that would land businessmen, bankers, and stockbrokers in jail.
Deep Ecology's claims about imminent manmade catastrophic climate change, oil and gas depletion, ecological cataclysms, and virtues of wind and solar power over traditional electricity generation are based on assumptions, assertions, a smattering of anecdotal evidence and, in some cases, computer models and scenarios that bear little or no resemblance to observed reality. They insist that conservation alone will free up enough spare electricity that more power plants won't be needed.
And yet, despite an absence of any factual, replicable evidence to support these claims, they have been made the foundation for intense, well-funded pressure campaigns intended to drive public policies that raise energy and consumer prices, destroy jobs, and hurt poor and middle class families.
That is immoral. It is eco-imperialism and environmental colonialism.
Every country should have the right to decide its own future, based on factual science and economics – and after open, honest discussions and debates that consider all feasible options, the economic and environmental risks and benefits of each alternative, and the informed wishes of their people.
Too often, well-funded environmental groups obstruct this process, misrepresent the facts, prevent progress, reduce people's choices and opportunities, and harm the health and living standards of families and communities.
Chile is blessed with magnificent ecosystems, natural resources and smart, hard-working people. It can have a prosperous future, and preserve its magnificent environment. It does not have to sacrifice that future on the altar of Deep Ecology.

Gary D'Amato offers news and insights on Wisconsin golf, new technology, courses and instruction
Washington County makes 'Best Municipal' list; Brown Deer left off
Washington County Golf Course in Hartford is ranked 29th on Golfweek magazine's list of "Best Municipal Courses (2010-'11)." Conspicuous by its absence is the Brown Deer Park Golf Course, which played host to a PGA Tour event from 1994 to 2009.
Washington County was the only Wisconsin facility to make the 50-course list. The Black Course at Bethpage State Park in Farmingdale, N.Y., was ranked No. 1 and was followed by Chambers Bay in University Place, Wash., and Butterfield Trail in El Paso, Texas.
Five courses in Illinois made the list: No. 9 Highlands of Elgin in Elgin; No. 18 Thunderhawk in Beach Park; No. 28 Bowe's Creek in Elgin; No. 37 Shepherd's Crook in Zion, and No. 43 Harborside International (Starboard) in Chicago.

Understanding stomas
Sometimes, during surgery, it may be necessary for the surgeon to form a 'stoma' on the wall of your abdomen. The stoma may be temporary (to allow the bowel time to heal) or permanent.
What is a stoma?
A stoma (from the Greek word for 'mouth') is where an opening is made on your abdomen which allows waste to pass out of the body. There are different types of stoma and, if you need one, the type you have depends on the location of your tumour and the type of surgery you need.
An ileostomy is a stoma formed by bringing the end or a loop of the small bowel (ileum) out on to the surface of your abdomen. The food waste passes out of the ileostomy and is collected in an external pouch (generally known as an ileostomy bag). Ileostomies are often formed during rectal cancer surgery to allow the area to rest and heal after surgery. The waste produced is usually liquid rather than solid. In due course, the ileostomy may be reversed with another, smaller operation, and you go back to using your bowels in the usual way. Please see our Stoma reversal page for more information.
A colostomy is a stoma formed by bringing part of your colon (large bowel) out on to the surface of your abdomen. The waste from a colostomy is usually more formed than from an ileostomy, as it has had some of the water removed on its way around the bowel. The waste passes out of the colostomy and is collected in an external pouch (generally known as a colostomy bag). A temporary colostomy can sometimes be formed to divert the waste away from the section of the colon which has been operated on, in which case a second operation is later carried out to reverse the stoma and allow the patient to resume a more normal bowel function. However, a permanent colostomy will need to be formed for some patients if the surgeon is unable to join the remaining ends of the bowel, or if your anus has been removed due to the location of the tumour.
Before surgery
Your surgeon will tell you before your operation if you might need a stoma. It's not always possible to know 100% either way as the decision can sometimes only be made during the surgery. If a stoma is a possibility, you should also meet with the stoma care specialist nurse before your operation. He / she will discuss with you where the stoma will be on your abdomen and answer any questions or concerns you may have. They will also introduce you to the special bags and equipment you will need to manage the stoma afterwards.
Before your planned operation, the stoma care specialist nurse or the surgeon will carefully examine you and mark the exact site of the stoma on your abdomen with a marker pen, to make sure it is in the right position for you to manage easily.
Managing your stoma after surgery
You will meet with the stoma care nurse again after your operation. He / she understands it can be very daunting at first and that learning to manage your stoma will take time and practice. No-one expects you to be an expert overnight. For the first few days, the stoma care nurse and the nurses on the ward will help you with your stoma.
As soon as you are well enough, the stoma care nurse will show you how to clean your stoma and how to change the bag. He/she will give you hints and tips on how to manage the stoma yourself at home. Simple, common sense advice will quickly help you to build your confidence, including how to be thoroughly prepared before you start changing the bag and have everything you need to hand in the bathroom.
The stoma nurse will also talk to you about the different types of appliances (bags) that are available as you become more accustomed to managing your stoma, as there are very many different types available, and it can take some trial and error to find which one might be best for you. You might wish to have a relative or friend with you while you are learning about your stoma, in case you need help or support when you get home.
Louisa, our nurse answers your question "I have got a new stoma but I am passing mucus and feeling like I need to go to the toilet. Is that normal?"
Managing your stoma at home
When you are able to manage your stoma independently, and the specialist team are happy with you, you will be able to go home - with a plentiful supply of stoma bags. Once home, you will be able to order new supplies from your chemist, dispensing GP or a home delivery company. Stoma products are free for cancer patients, but require a prescription from your GP. You should also make sure you have the contact details of your stoma nurse and local district nurse in case you have any concerns or queries.
If it is appropriate, the nurse may also talk to you about irrigation as a method of managing your stoma (colostomies only) or other new techniques that may be useful.
There is no doubt that having a stoma whether it be temporary or permanent will require time and perseverence to adjust to, but there is no reason why the stoma patient can't live a full and active life.
For further information and support:
You might like to visit our Patient Forum for diet hints and tips. Please also see 'Diet with a colostomy', 'Diet with an ileostomy' or our booklet 'Living with bowel cancer - Eating Well'.
Louisa, our nurse, answers your question "The skin around my stoma (or on my bottom) is getting very red and sore. What can I do to make it better?"

When doing a "join" in CouchDB, you can use view collation to group the records together. For example, having two document types customers and orders. So that you can return customer, then all the orders for that customer, then the next customer, and orders.
The question is, how do you do a merging of rows, so that if you have 10 customers, and 40 orders, your output is still 10 rows instead of 50. You essentially add more information into your customer row.
I believe using a
_list or a
reduce will solve this. The question is how exactly to do this?

In this blog, I will talk about transitioning your Active Directory site while upgrading your messaging Infrastructure to Microsoft Exchange Server 2010. The transition to Exchange 2010 should be performed one Active Directory site at time. When transitioning a site, the order of Exchange 2010 server role deployment should be as follows:
The first Exchange 2010 role that must be installed is the Client Access server. The new Client Access servers will handle the front end protocols at same time act as a proxy if the destination mailbox is in Exchange 2007. Below are some guidelines for transitioning to the Exchange 2010 CAS; however it is recommended that each organization performing an Exchange Server 2010 upgrade test the steps in an isolated environment:

Achieve Mindblowing Orgasms Without Doing a Single Kegel!
Everyone wants that kind of sex that makes your toes curl and your hands hot. The kind of sex that feels like you're high on Cloud 9 while you sink deeper into your spouse's arms. This kind of sex is totally attainable, but if you haven't experienced the euphoria just yet, you're missing one very big detail: the "Big O."
Sex and relationship therapist Kimberly Sharky has several amazing tips for achieving this O-so-important stage in your lovemaking, and Dr. Lauren Streicher, associate professor of gynecology at Northwestern University's medical school, even chimes in with a few gems of her own. The advice from these ladies could really change your relationship and your life, because as we all know, a happy a happy wife, a happy life.
Refinery 29 brought these ladies together to shell out six impressive pointers for women to use between the sheets and here are a few teasers:
As Sharky points out, this is a tough one for women, as we are often the givers. This makes it harder for us to accept pleasure. Sharky recommends trying a blindfold during sex. "If you take away your sense of sight, it gives you permission to pay more attention to what's going on inside your body," she says. This sounds like it could totally be used in a fun blindfolded game of hide and seek, too!
With so many things on our overcrowded plates, our minds often wander during sex. As Sharky points out, it's physically impossible to have an incredible orgasm when our minds are on our to-do lists. Breathing will help with focus. "This gives your mind something to do, and it also calms your nervous system enough to allow for relaxation, which is crucial for an orgasm," she says.
It's not just for Sting, yo! The key, according to Sharky, is not to make the orgasm the focus of your sexual activity but, instead, to slow down and appreciate the foreplay. The payoff? Rolling orgasms! Embrace all your senses and really focus on your partner, incorporating the entire body. Sharky says "giving yourself enough time can really increase the power of orgasm."
This is just the tip — wait for it — of the iceberg when it comes to Refinery 29's list, so head over there for the rest of their secrets!
Got some tips of your own? Share if you dare!

Offering three fully restored historic barns with panoramic views, the Nipmoose Farm is an exceptional site for country barn weddings. The Scottish Barn, German Barn and Corn Crib are all included in a single wedding event, and only one wedding per weekend is scheduled.
The barns hark back to another era, and in their rural surroundings, one can forget that the Nipmoose farm is situated in close proximity to Albany and Saratoga Springs, NY, Bennington, VT and Williamstown, MA.
Whether elegant, casual, grand, intimate or something in between, couples planning wedding events, will be excited by the variety of choices which the availability of three barns.
The Scottish and German barns can serve separate, simultaneous or consecutive functions at a wedding event. For example, a wedding couple might plan a reception in the German Barn and dinner in the Scottish Barn, followed by dancing, coffee and deserts in the German Barn.
There are multiple options for use of the small Corn Crib. Most frequently, couples display memorabilia and seating cards. Others have set up refreshment and desert stations in it.

The barns, and the stunning landscape surrounding them, are inspirational for photographers. Couples will be thrilled with the photographic opportunities. Please visit Wedding Photos to see delightful photographs of past weddings.
In addition to the barns, there are three charming bathrooms, one of which is handicap accessible. There is also a spacious dressing room inside the German Barn and a separate barn for caterers.
The most popular area for ceremonies is the poplar grove near the Corn Crib. In case of inclement weather, ceremonies can be held in either the German or Scottish Barn.
Besides the outstanding farmland vistas which surround the barns, there are gardens and a pond, situated within an expansive courtyard area.
