Winter's Unseen Trap
Dec 11, 2013
As an officer and aviator in the U.S. Army, I -- like most of you -- have been exposed to a significant amount of safety training. We've all learned that the unseen hazard is oftentimes the most dangerous. For example, Field Manual 3-04.301(1-301), Aeromedical Training for Flight Personnel, highlights Type I (unrecognized) spatial disorientation as the most dangerous because the hapless aviator has no idea they are disoriented, and thus, takes no action to correct the danger facing them. Carbon monoxide is similarly insidious. Whether it is exhaust leaking into your vehicle, or perhaps a propane heater warming a tent, carbon monoxide takes its prey with no warning. However, this article is not about spatial disorientation or carbon monoxide. There is another hazard that's similarly treacherous and just as veiled. Unfortunately, I found myself in its trap on my way home from drill one weekend.

Google unveils new Nexus 5 with M7-like motion tracker, Android 4.4 KitKatAt a Friday event in San Francisco, Google took the covers off their newest Nexus-series handset and unwrapped the next version of Android, version 4.4, or "KitKat."
The Nexus 5's announced specifications line up with previous leaks, and it appears Google has packed nearly every available technology into the device. A 2.2-gigahertz Qualcomm processor with 2 gigabytes of RAM drives a 4.95-inch 1080p display, while support for 4G LTE, Bluetooth 4.0, 802.11ac Wi-Fi, NFC, and inductive charging can be found on board, reports Engadget. Like the Nexus 4, Google partnered with South Korean manufacturer LG for the handset.
Android's newest flagship also includes what appears to be a response to Apple's M7 motion coprocessor, adding "two new composite sensors — step detector and step counter — that...track steps when the user is walking, running, or climbing stairs." Google notes that the "new sensors are implemented in hardware for low power consumption," though KitKat is also required.
Google says the Nexus 5 will ship today in the U.S., Canada, U.K., Australia, France, Germany, Spain, Italy, Japan and Korea. An unlocked, off-contract 16-gigabyte model will retail for $349, while bumping the onboard memory to 32 gigabytes will raise the price to $399.
KitKat, meanwhile, is said to sport several user interface and app updates that Google promises will make using KitKat devices easier than those running older versions of the operating system. Google Now features prominently, with the Nexus 5 gaining the now-famous "OK, Google" wake-up feature.
Google also slimmed KitKat down, according to the release, allowing it to run on devices with as little as 512 megabytes of RAM. The Mountain View company says the efficiency effort was designed to broaden support for low-powered Android devices which are popular in the developing world.
Behind the scenes, in addition to the new step detection features, KitKat gives developers native APIs for printing, new NFC capabilities, a standardized method for interacting with SMS and MMS messages, and support for building full-screen applications.

Proposal deserves a closer look…and perspective
Statement from Alderman Ashanti Hamilton May 9, 2013
Alderman Donovan's proposal to add more than $600,000 from the 2013 Common Council Contingent Fund for public safety efforts was placed on file earlier today by the Public Safety Committee (essentially ending its chances of being heard or passing). But despite the committee's action, I believe the proposal would be a worthy use of those funds. However, limiting the use of those resources to police overtime and the hiring of 20 new officers will do little to address the immediate safety needs facing our neighborhoods. To be clear, further examination of a plausible and immediate plan to address the public safety concerns brought up by this proposal is necessary.
I suggest we follow the model outlined by the Department of Justice that encourages a collaborative effort from residents, community-based organizations and the police department to implement comprehensive approaches to reducing crime. It is a strategy that has proven to be effective nationally but it is critical to have invested partners at the table and resources to follow through on the plan. Chief Flynn is a supporter of this strategy.
Specifically, Chief Flynn worked with the Local Initiatives Support Corp. (LISC) to earn Milwaukee the Byrne Criminal Justice Innovation Grant (that ironically is a $600,000 grant over three years) to help residents reclaim their neighborhoods. Expecting the police department to do it alone is a failed strategy and many of our constituents have been asking for a change in policy that offers them the support they need to repair and restore peace to their community.

There are just two weeks left for Coloradans to get health insurance--or risk a fine.
The AP reports that more than a quarter-million have gotten coverage through the state-run exchange, but they are disproportionately elderly. Only 24 percent of those who have signed up in Colorado are in the coveted 18-34 age group.
Young adults are essential to the Affordable Care Act's success because they are typically healthier and less costly to insurers, which can in turn drive down prices for everyone. But if young adults don't sign up, and insurers wind up with a more expensive group of policyholders, then insurance companies will raise their rates.
A campaign to attract younger policyholders kicks off Thursday in Denver.
For more information on the Colorado insurance exchange, click on the link on the side of the page.

Hounds of Hope documents daily life at the Penang Animal Welfare Society, Malaysia, where German retiree Barbara Janssen lives with her 250+ rescued canine companions. Many of the dogs have been dumped at the shelter or are there as a result of Barbara responding to rescue calls. The dogs live alone or in packs in one of the many rooms of this 'fixer upper' property, each looking for a small space to call their own. Barbara relies solely on the help of donations and volunteers to run the shelter, raising funds and awareness through dog washing days, community events, and adoption fairs. All the dogs are spayed and neutered and provided with the necessary veterinary care, either long term or until they are lucky enough to be adopted. From humble beginnings in 2005 when she took in a couple of dogs at her Penang apartment to 2010 when she set up her 'hotel for dogs,' it is clear that Barbara lives, breathes, and, above all, loves dogs. While her efforts haven't improved the overall condition for all the dogs of Penang, she has certainly changed the lives of the individual dogs she cares for. One of the photographs in Hounds of Hope was recently awarded a prize in the prestigious World Press Photo Awards. A portion of the proceeds from the sale of Hounds of Hope will be donated to 4PAWS.
Julie McGuire is a British born photographer and winner of a 2014 World Press Photo award. Her passion for the art began in her teenage years and developed into a full time love affair in 2005 when she and her husband 'outsourced' themselves to India from New York City. As an avid dog lover, her interest in their welfare was piqued after seeing the thousands of strays that wander the streets of Asia, and led her to begin a series of photography 'dogumentaries' looking at their acceptance and position in different societies around the world. After nearly nine years in Bangalore, she has recently relocated to the Nurnberg area of Germany with her husband and three dachshunds. She is available for assignments throughout Europe and Asia.

Nice collaboration and nice coloring!
Best PG money shot I've ever seen. Chocolate-covered kudos!
really like the more subdued colouring, the background gives so much depth i got vertigo.
Nicely coloured! I'm not crazy about the geometric shapes in the background though, but nice work
Great Colouring

I shut a single node instance down uncleanly. When I restarted it the logger did not have enough memory to preform the log sort, it got an OOME and died. I edited accumulo-env.sh and gave the logger process more memory. I restarted the logger process. However, the log recovery never restarted.
The master was continually printing message like the following.
06 17:07:16,609 [master.CoordinateRecoveryTask] DEBUG: Copying 65c48045-88c1-48e4-93d3-4865a9a86050 from xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx:11224 (for 1210.306000 seconds) 0.0
After 20m I restarted the master and then log recovery proceeded.

Originally the logger had a max of 128m of heap. I think I copied accumulo-env.sh.512MBBstandalone-native-example. I upped the logger heap to 512m max.
It does restart, but it takes a long time to timeout (an hour?!?). We need to use an API to get the status from the logger: using HDFS to communicate is too much of a kludge.
Should probably notice that the logger lost its zookeeper lock.
ACCUMULO-388 should test the fix for this issue

Meet Lyndsay
I am 24 years old and have been babysitting and providing child care since I was 14. I grew up in a church and watched up to 20 toddlers and infants at a time for over 4 years. I am not affiliated to any church at the moment so there is no worry of me having a bias in watching your child. I have watched one child, full time from the time he was born until he was about 3 yrs when I moved away. I am an honest, fun, and loving young woman and will take care of any child like they were my own. I am very fond of cooking and have been professionally doing so in fine dining restaurants since 2005. I am looking for a childcare position because I really miss the reward of taking care of children on a regular basis. I am a great lover of the outdoors and camping and am an avid reader. I, myself don't watch much TV and tend to pick up a good book when having some time at home. I am also very artsy and crafty and love baking cookies or any craft with children to get them involved and engaged in something. I am currently going back to school for Liberal Arts- Teaching Prep; Still debating of going into early education, special needs education, or teaching in an elementary school.

There are two things that I want to talk about this morning and I need you to help me take action on both of them.
First I need to ask you if you know the name Ernest Hoskins Jr. If you do, you know that he was a 21- year-old who worked at a green technology firm near Ward, Arkansas and was a recent husband, and father of an adopted daughter with a child on the way.

Rated 5 out of 5 by SueK2 Avebury Area Rug I just received my Avebury area rug and absolutely love it. It's often difficult to choose something like a rug based on the colors that show on the computer screen. I would have to say that the colors are even more vibrant and beautiful than they appeared on the computer screen. February 5, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by DianneRichfieldOhio Thick and luxurious rugs! We ordered three different sizes and love them all. They are thick and luxurious! They came extremely well packaged and we had no problem with creasing. One end of each rug was curled up for one day, but after one day they laid flat. Beautiful addition to our traditional kitchen! December 27, 2013
Rated 5 out of 5 by garp13 Love My Rug! I purchased my Avebury area rug in January and I just love it. The rich colors compliment my hardwood floors and make my room feel warm and cozy. I love it so much that I recently purchased the Avebury matching runner for my hallway!! September 21, 2013
Rated 2 out of 5 by coco4848 Never again. i ordered an Avebury rug. Quality was fine but the colors were nothing like it showed in catalog and online. Very disappointed. Kept it because of the hassle of shipping it back, and just put it in one of the back rooms. A very expensive rug for that purpose. Will never order a rug again from Frontgate. July 29, 2014
Rated 2 out of 5 by handy Avebury Area Rug Lovely colors however i have waited 6 months hoping the bumps (from being rolled up) to smooth out. No luck. These bumps completely destroy the look of the carpet, so it will NOT look like the picture shown. August 26, 2013
Rated 2 out of 5 by actionjackson Area Rug i love the color of the rug and it matches my furniture. The rug, however, never fully laid down flat. it was bound up with tape when it came and when we took the tape off, it had very hard ripples and we thought over time it would lay down but it didn't. Frontgate is sendind a rug bag and we are going to send it back and have asked for another one. i'm hoping it was this particular rug and the way it was wrapped. if the next one does the same thing, i will have to send it back and request my money. i hope that doesn't happen because i really, really like the rug. I'll save further judgement until i see the new rug being sent. March 22, 2013

The largest anti-piracy action in the history of the Motion Picture Assn. of America has seen the seizure of more than 19,000 pirated videocassettes and the arrest of six individuals.Acting on a tip from a Fremont video retailer, local law enforcement officials and the MPAA anti-piracy unit participated in a two-year investigation that culminated last week in the arrests and seizures. A series of raids were conducted June 9-11 in Northern and Southern California, resulting in the six suspects being arrested for conspiracy to manufacture and distribute the vidcassettes. Bail was set at $ 200,000 for each. The suspects allegedly reproduced video copies for distribution throughout Southern California and the San Francisco Bay area. Thirty-nine stores were identified as receiving and renting the pirated videocassettes. Jack Valenti, president/CEO of the MPAA, said the action was "the largest anti-piracy action in which the MPAA has ever participated and we are pleased to provide our technical expertise to assist the Fremont police department." Valenti said video piracy costs the motion picture industry some $ 200 million in lost business domestically, with losses at more than $ 2 billion worldwide.

Wildcats survive AHSAA testPublished 4:57pm Thursday, July 11, 2013
MONTGOMERY — Edgewood Academy rebounded from a first-game loss to Wetumpka to run the table and win the Faulkner University-hosted 7-on-7 camp Thursday.
"We didn't play well during the first game at all," said Bobby Carr, coach of the Wildcats. "But we're a young team and we saw Wetumpka get off the bus with 70-plus players. We dropped five or six passes. And they whipped us pretty good."
But the Wildcats – defending AISA Champs – found their footing and started taking it to the AHSAA squads.
"The biggest thing is us getting to compete," said Carr. "What we do in these 7-on-7s, it's our offense. That's what we run during the fall."
The Wildcats defeated Trinity and St. James in back-to-back outings.
"Defensively, we go out there and work on reading the different zones and getting better at what we do," said Carr.
Edgewood's ride continued with a win over Holtville and then a 21-18 victory over Elmore County.
The Panthers held on to knock off Wetumpka in the semifinals.
"I wanted to play Wetumpka again," said Carr. "Most of these teams were running an offense and a defense: Two separate units. We were running kids both ways all day and I'm impressed with the way they kept fighting."
In the championship. the one-loss Wildcats went head-to-head with unbeaten Shaw (Columbus).
Edgewood defeated the Alabama visitors 29-2.
"Out of all the things we did today, that's what impressed me the most," said Carr. "We didn't let them score. Our team grew up today and that's what we needed to do."
While the defense made their mark, the offense found the balance between an experienced backfield and rookie wideouts.
"I thought Daniel Green and Jackson Tate, my sophomore and freshman, played extremely well today," said Carr. "We already know what Josh Crawford (running back) and Taylor Hawthorne (running back)
are capable of doing. This was a chance for them to shine."
Hawthorne threw touchdown passes to Crawford, Green, Tate and Heath Young throughout the day. And he even caught one on a Crawford toss against St. James.
"He's looking really good," said Carr. "He's played one game at Edgewood, at quarterback, and he just got offered by Middle Tennessee to come up there and play quarterback next year. He'll get a few more offers before he's done."

Deer Consumer Products, Inc. Issues Warning Concerning Evidence Of Illegal Short Selling Of DEER Stock By "Alfred Little" And Others, To Seek Sanctions Against The Rosen Law Firm For Filing A Frivolous "Class Action" Complaint
NEW YORK, May 2, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- Deer Consumer Products, Inc. (Nasdaq: DEER) (website: http://www.deerinc.com/ ), a leading provider of "DEER" branded consumer products to Chinese consumers and a leading vertically integrated manufacturer of small household and kitchen appliances for global customers, publicly announces today that the Company has received additional evidence of continuing illegal short selling in DEER stock. The Company believes its common stock has been manipulated in collusion among "naked" short sellers, which may include U.S. and off-shore based hedge funds/individuals that distribute false and fabricated information concerning the Company via various websites and blogs, including through SeekingAlpha.com, a website owned by Seeking Alpha Ltd., an Israeli company.In what appears to be a part of this attempted manipulation, a purported class action complaint was filed against the Company by The Rosen Law Firm. This complaint is expressly based upon the false and defamatory reports concerning the Company that were authored by a fictitious character - " Alfred Little" and published by Seeking Alpha Ltd. even though Seeking Alpha Ltd. had deleted certain false reports prior to the filing of the complaint. Litigation counsel for DEER has notified The Rosen Law Firm that the complaint contains numerous false and inaccurate allegations and the Company will seek sanctions against the plaintiff and The Rosen Law Firm if the complaint is not withdrawn in its entirety. BACKGROUND FACTS: During the months of March and April 2011, the Company believes that an attempted market manipulation scheme by illegal short sellers acting in collusion caused DEER's share price to plunge from more than $11 per share on March 21 to as low as $6.12 on April 4 on heavy daily volume, causing a temporary loss of approximately $165 million in market capitalization for DEER's shareholders. To protect DEER's shareholders and as a matter of good corporate governance, DEER has repeatedly confirmed that its filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission, including its latest annual report, 10-K filing with audited financials are accurate and are in full compliance with SEC disclosure requirements. DEER has also affirmed its 2011 earnings guidance and a dividend policy. In addition, DEER paid initial quarterly cash dividend of $0.05 per share on April 14 to shareholders of record on March 31. DEER has hosted numerous visits by independent research analysts, institutional investors and global investment banks. The Company notes that DEER's share price has recovered approximately 66% since April 4 to a closing price of $10.14 on April 29. ADDITIONAL EVIDENCE OF ILLEGAL SHORT SELLING:

" Four years ago I was having knee, leg and foot pain and decided to spend more $$ than I usuallly do and try the Orthaheel brand. I bought a pair of womens Tide sandals in plum and cranberry. I have never worn any other sandal/flip flop since!! they are amazing, I could walk 100 miles in them!
I love how Footwear etc. carries so many great brands to choose from, they are always very helpful.
I went yesterday to Footwear etc. in Ranco Bernardo CA to look for another pair of Orthaheel sandals; needed something a little more dressy. Thanks to the help of Ashley I tried on the Carla II bronze metallic sandal (not my first choice) but she said try them you will like them. Yup I love them, they look great with dresses or shorts and have the same fantastic comfort I'm use to in the Orthaheel brand."

Cliff Diving for Healthcare Innovation
Ringing in the new year brings a time for reflection on the past and preparation for the future. After looking at the first Recruiting for Healthcare Jobs blog post in 2012, I am reminded that significant strides in healthcare innovation remain. While the previous year culminated in progress, metrics and transparency for value-based purchasing and consumer sentiment are poised to have a more profound impact on health system operations going forward. In order to rise to the challenge, hospitals and healthcare systems should embrace healthcare innovation.
While innovation is typically discussed in reference to process or technology development, a more strategic view might encompass the following continuum:
Innovation in Healthcare Collaboration
- Develop partnerships with key constituents in the community to help manage high risk patients
- Find new ways to collectively address social determinants that negatively impact community health
- At the most fundamental level, solicit new avenues for engaging patients in their health care
Innovation in Health Delivery Process
- Focus on eliminating variation, improving safety and quality, while also enhancing the patient experience in the inpatient admission, discharge, transition and outpatient visit processes
- Develop new services and care delivery mechanisms to keep patients healthy
Innovation in Technology
- Implement technology that supports your collaboration, process improvement and patient engagement efforts while continuing to protect and enhance the quality of the patient experience
Innovation in Environment
- Create a modern digital therapeutic environment with a corporate culture focused on compassion and quality customer service
And, as the President of the Federation of Hospitals aptly put it, since "lawmakers chose to rob hospital Peter to pay for fiscal cliff Paul"…wouldn't it be better to dive into innovation rather than be pushed?

Post pays tribute to military fathers
June 13, 2013
By Wallace McBriide, Fort Jackson Leader
FORT JACKSON, S.C. -- Fort Jackson celebrated the contributions of military fathers during its annual Fatherhood Recognition Ceremony at the Solomon Center Tuesday.
Now in its third year, the Fatherhood Appreciation Ceremony has grown from the nine men recognized during the 2010 event. Greg Lewis, Family Advocacy Program specialist, said 34 fathers were recognized last year, with more than 60 noted at this week's event.
"It's likely that everyone here has some memory of their dad," Lewis told Tuesday's gathering, an audience that included many of this year's nominees and their families. "It may be very pronounced; it may be very vivid. It may very well be a distant memory that fades in the blink of an eye."
Col. Stephen Yackley, Fort Jackson deputy commander, told the audience Tuesday that fatherhood is a lifelong commitment that rarely goes as planned.
"Even when your children have grown up, moved on, or even had children of their own, that title of 'father' is never relinquished," Yackley said. "It is definitely the most challenging task any man can face. There's no operations order, plan or script to follow. You can read all the self-help books, rehearse and visualize what you will do, but life's many challenges will disrupt even the best prepared."
Fatherhood can be stressful, but military careers put additional pressure on families, said Col. Michael Graese, Fort Jackson's garrison commander.
"For the drill sergeant, the deployed commander or the recruiter who's spent countless hours on mission, it can be extremely difficult to stay connected, not to mention performing the normal duties of being a dad," Graese said. "Since there are no clear rules, manuals or specific regulations to guide a dad through the responsibilities and duties of fatherhood, questions such as, 'How do I do this?' and, 'What does being a good provider and role model for my children really mean?' can be hard to answer."
"As a military father, it's even more difficult, because we are faced with situations and challenges that most civilian fathers could not imagine," Yackley said. "Our duties take us away at the most inconvenient times, and we miss important events in our children's lives. That is why it is important to be there when we can."
The event's youngest guest speaker was Michael Gibson, 15, a student at Spring Valley High School. Gibson represented Fort Jackson Child, Youth and School Services in Tuesday's presentations.
"My father gave me the greatest gift he could give to any other person," he told the crowd. "He believed in me."

Serum theophylline concentrations, blood theophylline level
This test measures the level of theophylline in your blood.
Theophylline is a chemical similar to caffeine. It's sometimes used as a medicine to treat lung conditions such as asthma, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, and bronchiolitis. Sometimes it's prescribed to babies, especially premature infants, to help their breathing and lung function.
Theophylline reduces inflammation or irritation in lungs and airways, relaxes smooth muscles in the airways and digestive system, and stimulates the central nervous system. But theophylline can be harmful in high doses or if the theophylline level in your blood is too high, so your healthcare provider may want to test your level of theophylline.
You will need this test if your healthcare provider gives you theophylline for a health condition. The test will help your provider figure out the proper dose and see if you have too much theophylline Win your body. Too much theophylline can be life-threatening. Signs and symptoms of too much theophylline include:
Vomiting, heartburn, and belly (abdominal) pain
Rapid heart rate or other changes in heart rhythm
Muscle aches and tremors
Difficulty sleeping
High blood sugar
Low potassium
Low blood pressure
Your healthcare provider may order other tests if you have taken too much theophylline. These include:
Tests to measure other substances in your blood, such as blood sugar and electrolytes
Blood gas test to check the oxygen and carbon dioxide levels in your blood
Liver function tests
Many things may affect your lab test results. These include the method each lab uses to do the test. Even if your test results are different from the normal value, you may not have a problem. To learn what the results mean for you, talk with your healthcare provider.
Results are given in micrograms per milliliter (mcg/mL). Safe levels for people taking theophylline are usually 8 to 20 mcg/mL. Levels above 20 mcg/mL may be harmful if you've taken too many pills within a short time period. Such cases might include accidentally taking extra pills or having a prescription that was written for too high a dose. This may also happen if someone was using the medicine to attempt suicide.
A safe level for you depends on how much alcohol you drink, whether you smoke, whether you take herbal medicines, and how nutritiously you eat.
The test requires a blood sample, which is drawn through a needle from a vein in your arm.
Taking a blood sample with a needle carries risks that include bleeding, infection, bruising, or feeling dizzy. When the needle pricks your arm, you may feel a slight stinging sensation or pain. Afterward, the site may be slightly sore.
Certain medicines cause theophylline to break down more slowly in the body, which can lead to higher test results. These include:
Cimetidine, used to treat problems related to stomach acid
Birth control pills
Certain antibiotics, such as erythromycin, clarithromycin, ciprofloxacin, and norfloxacin
Fluvoxamine, a medicine for anxiety
Other medicines cause theophylline to leave your body more quickly. This leads to a lower test result. Smoking, drinking alcohol, or having a viral infection or heart failure can cause levels to suddenly go up or down.
Tell your healthcare provider how much theophylline you have taken. In addition, be sure your provider knows about all medicines, herbs, vitamins, and supplements you are taking. This includes medicines that don't need a prescription and any illicit drugs you may use.

|N° 41 - May 2004
Applied research: the heritage of Zoltán Bay
Under the Hungarian Socialist system, applied research was carried out by a number of technical institutes linked to major public companies. For material sciences alone, there were 18 entities devoted to aluminium, steel, plastics, etc. Following the privatisation of industrial consortiums in the early 1990s and the closure of the most outdated factories, a radical rethink was needed.
In 1992, the government took inspiration from the German Fraunhofer Instituten to launch the Zoltán Bay Foundation, named after the illustrious Hungarian physicist (1900-1992). He is famed, in particular, for developing radio tubes for the Hungarian company Tungsram in the 1930s and making the first radar observations of the moon(1). The foundation, which is independent of the state, was allocated start-up capital, the interest on which is used to finance applied research.
In 1993, the foundation opened the first two research institutes: one dedicated to biotechnology (BayBIo), and the other to products and logistics (BayLogi). Three years later, it founded its Institute for Material Sciences and Technology (BayAti) in Budapest, which is today its flagship institute. With 38 researchers and 12 students, it is active in just about all the latest fields: 3D steel sectioning using lasers (which enabled it to participate in the European VELI and IPcim programmes); nanotechnologies, with research on new zinc, iron and nickel alloys at the atomic level; new composite polymers of interest to the automotive industry; and the recasting of used plastics into new materials.
'One of the common features of all this work is the shared interest in phenomena which occur at the surface of materials,' explains the institute's Director, Erika Kálmán. She cites the example of the spectacular restoration work on the bronze statues on Budapest's Heroes Square. 'Using electronic microscopy we were able to determine the corrosion points at the finest level of the material, whether due to the reaction between the bronze of the statues and the iron of the screws, or atmospheric pollution.' After being dismantled and transported by special convoys to the institute for restoration, the sculptures, which were first erected in 1896 to commemorate the millennium of the birth of Hungary, once again stand resplendent.
(1) Despite his scientific renown, Bay was obliged to leave Hungary in 1948 and ended his career in the United States.

How many pieces of flair do YOU have on?
Last night, my wife Laura really wanted a baked potato. She wanted one in the worst kind of way, and even though I offered to bake her one, there was a complication: It was hot as balls in our house and she didn't want the oven turned on.
How many pieces of flair do YOU have on?
I said I could do it in the microwave.
She said she didn't want a microwaved potato. She wanted a baked potato. More specifically, she wanted a baked potato from Wendy's.
We used to live basically right across the street from a Wendy's. And while we certainly weren't regular customers or anything, a couple times a month, when neither of us wanted to cook anything or actually sit down in a restaurant, it was nice to be able to run out, grab a couple baked potatoes and eat them on the couch while watching cartoons. It was also handy when we had a bunch of leftover massamun curry or something and needed something to bulk it out, or when we were snowed in and had nothing in the 'fridge but questionable takeout and beer.
Wendy's was, in this way, a kind of safety restaurant for us (a subject discussed at length in my review of Flying Fish from a couple weeks ago)--a place where we could score baked potatoes (I'm not sure if we ever got anything else) when baked potatoes in a hurry were what we wanted.
Now, though, Laura and I find ourselves in a place which is openly hostile to chain restaurants. And while this is normally a good thing (and one of the things I love about Seattle and its surrounding 'burbs), it does make for some hardships. Like last night's baked potato debacle. We didn't want to turn on the oven. Neither of us wanted to get dressed, go to a steakhouse or something and actually sit and eat baked potatoes.
"I want to give someone a dollar and have them give me a potato," was how Laura put it. But the nearest Wendy's to us is in Renton, easily a 20 minute drive, and just too far for a woman with an immediate craving. Thus, we were stuck--potato-less and sad (and hungry)--and this all got me thinking...
While the decided lack of chain operations in and around Seattle is a good thing for those of us who love and support the local, the small, the weird and the awesome, and while I firmly believe that the quality of any city's cuisine improves in direct correlation to the amount of Applebee's and Olive Garden franchises run out of town, even the most die-hard gastronaut has one or two chain restaurants of which they are irrationally fond. For Laura, it would be Wendy's and Chick-fil-A. I miss having a Chipotle on every streetcorner (as was the case in Denver), wish I could still go to Noodles & Company (which, like Chipotle, was founded in Denver) because they ably, if not artfully, made a fast-food beef stroganoff that I kinda liked, and have an occasional weakness for McDonald's breakfasts even if I rarely find myself awake and mobile at any hour that they're served.
So what about you? Living in the Land Without Drive-thrus, what is it that you wish you could still get once in a while, as a guilty pleasure or occasional indulgence? What is it that you love, but would never admit to eating among your foodie friends? What chain operation do you wish would jump Seattle's virtual cordon sanitaire and set up shop right across the street from your house?
This is a safe place to make your admissions. We promise not to judge or poke fun. So add your fondest fast food daydreams and darkest Riblet desires to the comments section below.
