Top Chef: Just Desserts: Chocolate And Donuts Send Two Chefs Home
October 05, 2011 08:36 PM by Lori Wilson
Seven chefs remain in week seven of Top Chef: Just Desserts, but after a twist at the Quick Fire, only six head into the elimination challenge. Keep reading to find out who is eliminated from the Bravo reality show and who lives on for another week.
The Quick Fire
Top Chef: Just Desserts judge Gail Simmons introduces Mark Israel of Doughnut Plant, who will guest judge the Quick Fire. They announce that the chef who makes the most delicious donut will receive $10,000, but no immunity. Johnny Iuzzini appears to tell the chefs the one who serves up the least favorite donut will be eliminated. After two hours, Katzie makes a ganache, but Johnny points out it was plated like a dessert, not a donut. However, Mark likes the surprise in the middle. Carlos makes bomoblinis, which seems to go over well with the judges. Orlando makes a spicy banana beignet, but Mark doesn't taste the spices. Megan makes a glazed donut, which sticks to the plate. Chris creates a citrus churro with a raspberry jam and Sally makes an espresso glazed donut stick you can dip in coffee. Finally, Mathew whips up a ginger beignet, which Johnny calls dry. Ultimately, Mark likes Sally's and Carlos' donuts the best, but Carlos edges Sally out for the win. The judges' least favorites are Megan's, Orlando's and Matthew's. Megan is told to pack up her tools.
The Elimination Challenge
The remaining six chefs are divided into two teams and are tasked with making chocolate desserts to present to each other. The teams consists of Sally, Carlos and Orlando, as well as Matthew, Chris and Katzie. Each team must make a showpiece, as well as individual dishes. Orlando and Chris happily take on the former task for their respective teams.
During the service, Johnny, Gail, Dannielle Kyrillos and guest judge Wylie Dufresne of WD-50 walk into the showroom. Each team's showpiece is revealed. Orlando explains that they wanted to reflect the history of chocolate, while Chris explains they used contemporary, difficult techniques.
Orlando, Sally and Carlos sit down with the judges to taste test Chris' chocolate brioche, Matthew's chocolate tart and Katzie's Boca Negra. As the cheftestants give the judges their critiques on their competitors' desserts, Orlando is quite detailed in his judgments. Next, Matthew, Chris and Katzie judge Orlando's chocolate crunch puff pastry with chocolate mouse, Sally's manjari caramel mouse and Carlos' caramelized crèmeux with peanut butter mousse and caramelized banana. Chris is harsh on his judgments, but Katzie and Matthew remain more neutral.
The Judges' Table
Both teams face the judges and are praised for their showpieces. However, the judges agree that Carlos, Orlando and Sally gave them a more cohesive experience overall. They are the winners. As the judges' least favorite team, Chris is told the texture of his dessert was off and strange; Katzie's cake is called too big on the plate and her ingredients were disproportionate; and Matthew is told he was too basic and there wasn't enough nuance in his too sweet tart. In the end, it's Katzie's dessert that doesn't measure up. She packs her tools and goes home.

I do not think Orlando should of won as he did not make his desserts his other team mates did it then he took the credit for it all he did was put it together.The other team Chris did the center piece and did his own dessert.It was judge on how the desserts tasted that you made not what you team mates made for you..

Krisha McCoy, MS
Meningococcal disease is caused by an infection that affects the meninges. The meninges is the protective membrane that surrounds the brain and spinal cord. A bacterial infection of the meninges, called
bacterial meningitis, can cause death within hours. This bacteria can also cause infections in the blood.
The disease is most common in:
About 1,200 people in the US develop the disease each year. Approximately 10%-15% of these people die. Another 11%-19% lose their arms or legs, become deaf, have nervous system problems, or suffer
Symptoms of meningitis include:
Symptoms in newborn and infants can be hard to notice. These may include:
Treatment may include:
There are two meningococcal vaccines available in the US:
Both vaccines are made from parts of the meningococcal bacteria. They do not contain live bacteria.
The MCV4 vaccine is routinely given to children aged 11-12 years old with a booster dose given at age 16 years.
Three doses are given to teens (11-18 years old) who have HIV:
Teens who receive the vaccine late follow this schedule:
The following groups of people need to be vaccinated because they have an increased risk of meningitis:
Young children aged 9-23 months and others who have certain conditions need to be given two doses in order to be fully protected.
People who are at high risk will need a booster dose every five years.
The meningococcal vaccine, like all vaccines, has the potential to cause serious problems, such as severe allergic reactions. The risk of the vaccine causing serious harm or death is extremely small.
Mild problems associated with the vaccine include redness or pain at the injection site or a fever.
If you have the following conditions, you should not get the vaccine:
The vaccines may be given to pregnant women. However, the MCV4 vaccine has not been extensively studied in pregnant women. It should be used only if it is clearly needed.
Preventive antibiotics may be given to people in close contact with an infected person, such as:
In the event of an outbreak, close contacts of infected people and people at increased risk should get the vaccine. Antibiotics may be recommended for people in close contact.

Man dies during residential construction accident
Published: Friday, November 23, 2012 at 7:20 p.m.
Last Modified: Friday, November 23, 2012 at 7:20 p.m.
SEMINOLE — Authorities say a Tampa Bay area man died when an 8-foot concrete wall fell on him while doing construction on a home.
The Pinellas County Sheriff's Office reports that 52-year-old Arben Berberi died Friday afternoon.
Berberi and two other men had purchased the home in the spring and were working on an addition when the slab fell. The home's two other owners were also working but uninjured.
Deputies say Berberi's death is most likely accidental. The medical examiner will also investigate.

When you peel the backing from the contact paper (shelf-liner), it's sticky so it stays right on. The etching cream can get underneath the edges a little, leaving imperfect lines but overall it stays in just fine until you're ready to peel it off!

I am having problems with the response of a SOAP request. The returned XML document from AjxRpc.invoke contains whitespaces. One of the problems of this is that the _check method of the AjxSoapDoc doesn't work anymore. The results of the xmlToJs is also incorrect because it generates object properties without labels. This is really a big problem if I want to receive XML instead of JSON.
Can there something be done about it?

Haisen- I'd like to see a picture of your set up when it's done. I've been trying to figure out a way to shave some of that weight off.
Haisen- I'd like to see a picture of your set up when it's done. I've been trying to figure out a way to shave some of that weight off.
I finally began loading the NICE Frame with weight. I tested out 65 and 90 lbs and encountered a problem. The bar that runs down the center of the frame is digging into my back, unless I hunch over excessively. I searched the web to see if this is a common problem, but have not found a single review discussing any issues at all with the NICE Frame. I have tried wearing the pack higher and lower than it should be worn and also loaded the weight both higher and lower to see if that would solve my issue, but the frame still dug into my back leaving small bruises along my spine area wear it was jabbing into.
I know this is not a common issue, but it is still a serious issue I must resolve to achieve the proper performance. I plan on contacting Mystery Ranch this week to see if they can help me. If not, I will try and rig a lumbar pad, similar to the Badlands 4500's, that will rap around and pad the frame from potentially hurting my back. If anyone else has encountered the same issue, please let me know. I will also comment on what Mystery Ranch's Customer Service has to say if no one knows how to correct this issue.
Thank You,
I spoke with a Mystery Ranch Customer Service Representative yesterday and they were very knowledgeable, friendly, and willing to help. As I suspected, this is not a very common issue; however he had me "cant" the waist-belt and that made a noticeable difference. It was not a perfect, so I proceeded to experiment further. The "yoke" was positioned almost perfect, but needed raised about an inch to assist my load lifters in performing to the maximum. After fine tuning the fit, the problem was not entirely solved.
I was using a 5-Gallon Jerrycan filled with 55 pounds of sand, which created a very heavy and dense load on the very bottom of the frame. The 55 pounds placed directly at the bottom of the frame made the load lifters pretty much useless and caused the pack to pull away from riding along my back and dig the bottom of the frame into my lower back. The solution at this point was simple, use a small sleeping bag or something lightweight and bulky to raise the jerrycan up to allow the load lifters to function properly. Taking the time to really pay attention to how the pack rides on your, so you can make the proper adjustments, no matter how minor the adjustments are, can make significant improvements to the pack's performance. Another critical error I made was not loading the pack properly.

Getting to a point where you can have a 10th anniversary of something is a big deal. The Goodguys organization has cause to celebrate, as they've just wrapped up 10 years of Del Mar Nationals held at the historic Del Mar Fairgrounds, a scant 20 miles north of San Diego.
When Goodguys first came to the 340-acre facility in 2000, which houses a well-known horse racing track that was frequented by pre-war Hollywood stars like Bing Crosby, attendees were impressed by the beach vibe (the show parking is only 1,000 feet from the Pacific Ocean) and the vintage Spanish architecture but, in the ensuing decade, the event has grown to be one of the major must-go shows in the country.
As with most any other Goodguys-prepped event, these Nationals had special parking areas set aside for pickup trucks, rods that are driven a significant distance, homebuilt rides, and muscle cars, but the Good Wood section is, for this particular show, a show within a show and a great crowd pleaser.
The Good Wood area is for woodies-from the '20s to the '50s, and one-off bodies are accepted, too, as long as there is some wood to be found on the exterior. A total of 58 vehicles showed up, which made for an impressive showing. Some were restored and some were quite obviously modified, but everyone hung out together, compared notes, and listened to the band that was set up under the portico.
Out on the far edge of the grounds is where the Street Challenge Autocross was in full swing, offering two days of cone dodging to a group of enthusiasts who take this stuff pretty seriously. Anyone can enter and drive the course, but a walk through the staging area will tell you there has been some heavy investment made in more than a handful of these competitors. Fun to watch, the racing runs about 30 seconds per car to cover two laps of the twisting course, and then it's onto the next racer.
But the major draw of the weekend, besides having more than a few thousand street rods cruising around, is when the Goodguys get down to picking their Truck of the Year, Muscle Car of the Year, Kustom Rod of the Year, and their Street Rod D'Elegance award. "Magnatude," the name given to Jerry Magnuson's Muroc roadster (designed by Chip Foose and with a hand-fabricated steel body by Marcel's Custom Metal), won the Street Rod D'Elegance award, beating out some formidable competition. Topped with an intercooled MagnaCharger (the company Magnuson owns and operates), the roadster is powered by an LS1 and features Kugel IFS and IRS suspension, hidden headlights in the fenders, Jim Griffin upholstery, and a 17x7 and 20x10 Foose wheel combination.
If there was ever an event that encapsulates the Southern California hot rodding lifestyle, the Del Mar Nationals would probably be it. Great weather, nice location, awesome cars-what more can you ask for?
Tech Tip
When choosing a relay, make sure it has the capacity to handle the current requirement of the load it will be operating. Multiple fans usually require multiple relays. Always be sure of the power requirement of the load like an electric fan, electric water pump, high output headlights, or any other accessory to make sure the proper relay is obtained.
Best Ford In A Ford
As we move into our second of five events that will feature our choice for the Best Ford in a Ford from around the country, our current recipient is Dorothy Bangiola for her '40 Ford sedan delivery. It's outfitted with a 347 stroker 5.0L Ford small-block.
Dorothy rounded up her delivery back in 2003 and spent the next five years putting it together, ending up with a very worthwhile and streetable street rod. She is no stranger to street rodding. She owns a company that supplies '32-72 Ford reproduction parts (C&G Early Ford Parts) in Escondido, California.
The delivery is painted in a custom-mixed PPG color, called C&G Blue (wonder where the name came from?), with the finish body and paintwork by SoCal Paint Works in Santee, California. The big blue machine rests on a Mustang II front suspension and a Ford 9-inch rear with airbags at the corners, all by Super Rides by Jordan.
Also at the corners are 91 Series polished billet and solid face wheels from Wheel Vintiques, of Fresno, California. The fronts measure 17x7 while the rears are 18x7 with '40 Ford hubcaps. Rubber comes by way of BFGoodrich, measuring P235/40R17 and P235/50R18.
But the pièce de résistance is the Ford V-8. Based on an '88 Ford 5.0L it is equipped with a 347 stroker kit then balanced and blueprinted. Both looks and performance are represented with Edelbrock aluminum heads, chromed Edelbrock upper and lower intake, 70mm throttle body, Ford Racing 19-pound high-flow injectors, an Isky cam with 520 lift/275 duration, MSD ignition, Street and Performance engine dress-up kit, Sanderson headers, and a Haltech computer.

 For the Top 100 program, STREET RODDER attends 10 particular car shows each year and picks 10 vehicles at each to make up the Top 100. For more on where those shows are and how they're voted on, check www.streetrodderweb.com.Ken Sutton / Casa Grande, AZ, 1933 Ford coupe
 Ken was in the right place at the right time to pick up this '33 Ford three-window that was being built for Bob Reisner by Classic Customs of Tempe, AZ. Besides the ostrich interior, Corvette rearend, and original steel body, the coupe is powered by a Ford 427 with a quartet of Weber IDAs up top.Rick Abate / Orange, CA, 1961 Chevy Impala
 Rick Abate's been working on his '61 Impala for some time, and recently brightened up the paintwork by adding the House of Kolors orange flame work. Equipped with RideTech air suspension, American Hopster wheels wrapped in Nitto rubber, a 383 motor, and a leather interior, the Chevy is getting close to being finished.Joe Sahli / Scottsdale, AZ, 1934 Ford coupe
 Featured in the July '10 issue of STREET RODDER, Joe Sahli's three-window was built at Hot Rods by Dean in Phoenix, AZ. Using their own chassis, Dean added a Heidt's IFS/IRS suspension system, a Smeding 383 motor with a Tri-power setup, a 700-R4 transmission, and Aqua Blue PPG paint before sending the ride to Sid Chavers for its two-tone interior.Tim Brown / El Cajon, CA, 1927 Ford track roadster
 Looking like it might have at one time been on the front row of a dirt track in the late '40s, Tim Brown's '27 roadster has a definite old-school feel about it. A '47 Ford Flathead, dual 97s, a '39 Lincoln Zephyr trans, and a Winters quick-change round out the package.Verne Casey / Tucson, AZ, 1933 Ford cabriolet
 Verne Casey not only impressed everyone with his stylish take on a Speed33 body, he drove his ride to Del Mar from his Arizona home more than 400 miles away. Powered by a 383 backed to a Tremec five-speed, the cabrio had a nose that was shaped by Marcel's Custom Metal and a grille custom-made by D.F. Metalworks. The '33 rides on a Kugel independent suspension front and rear.Gary Matranga / Sacramento, CA, 1932 Ford Tudor
 Gary bought this sedan at the Del Mar show and drove it the 500 miles home after the show. That's a credit to the previous builder/owner: Joe Kugel (of Kugel Komponents), who had already rolled up 10,000 miles in it. Besides the Kugel IFS/IRS system, the driver gets its go from a 289 backed to a C4 trans.Allen Antoyan / Orange, CA, 1946 Ford woodie
 At first glance Allen Antoyan's '46 looks like a well-done woodie (and it is), but there also several custom touches, including the frenched headlights and custom dash. A 350/350 hauls the rod down the road, and a Mustang IFS smoothes out the bumps.Bill West / Tracy, CA, 1939 LaSalle coupe
 LaSalle's were always a notch above, and so is Bill West's coupe, which was built at Dominator Street Rods in Tracy, CA. A 4.6L supercharged Cadillac Northstar engine fits well under the long hood, and great-looking upholstery from Dave Putman makes the drive comfortable.
Bill O'Brien / Elmhurst, IL, 1949 Chevrolet convertible
 Originally built by Hot Rods by Boyd back in 1993, this 'vert also has a fastback twin, which Bill O'Brien also owns. This ride was restored by Charlie Hutton's Color Studio, and will soon be getting a new set of Foose wheels to update the look. Shaved door handles, gas filler, and hood, plus a new leather interior from Ron Mangus, helps make this old ride new again.Jeff Hall / San Diego, CA, 1923 Ford roadster
 Have you ever seen a 409 stuffed into the front of a T-bucket? Neither had we. The '64 V-8, topped with six Demon 98 carbs, is in front of a California Custom Roadsters long-door body and sits on a CCR frame. Jeff Hall did his own body prep and paint and all the assembly on his ride (including the custom linkage for the six-carb setup).Doug Mayfield's '42 Ford coupe was powered by a 302/C4 engine and trans combo, and the all-Ford rod had a simple look but was well done.How low can you go? Paul Garrett, from Alpine, CA, had it figured out with his '31 Ford sedan, which runs 5.50-18s on the front and 6.50-20s in the rear.Larry Johnson, from Grand Junction, CO, brought two cars to the show, including this '61 Chevy, which has a turbo-equipped 572 Chevy motor underhood. Larry's Bow Tie is a multiple award winner.Another slick Buick belonged to Bryan Egan of Long Beach, CA, whose '33 Victoria featured spare tire mounts on both front fenders.Dave Patterson's '37 Buick limo still had the glass partition between the driver's area and the upscale section out back. For the drivetrain, Patterson keeps it in the family with a 403 Buick motor butted up to a 200-4R trans.Yeah, it's not a street rod technically, but you have to admit Ron Harris' '57 Flxible Starliner is cool. And the inside is just as nice as the exterior on the beast, which has a 534-inch engine backed to a six-speed trans.
Dennis Hauswirth's '49 Pontiac was clean-shaven (without door handles or hood trim), but it still had enough old-time feel with the headlight eyebrows, a scallop paintjob, and wide whites.Ryan Manson, the editor of Custom Classic Trucks (a sister publication to STREET RODDER that covers early trucks) was on hand in Del Mar to check out the stash of pickups at the event (of which there were many), including Andy Meeh's '51 Ford F-1 from nearby Vista.Dan Merriman's '20 Ford roadster had a bunch of folks doing double takes, not knowing where he'd hid the motor. Being just a four-cylinder, the engine didn't need that much space.A surprising number of Cadillacs (from all years) were out cruising the fairgrounds, but Trevor and Mike Lady made a statement by parking their long-n-low '65s next to each other.Don "The Snake" Prudhomme retired as a race car driver in 1994 after 32 seasons, but his legend lives on. He showed up on Saturday with his restored Dodge car hauler with an original Snake 'Cuda on its back. Some of Prudhomme's earliest Funny Cars were built by the late legendary Lil' John Buttera.Over in the Homebuilt Heaven section of the event (sponsored by Speedway Motors), Norm Schmidt's '27 Ford roadster rolled in from El Cajon, CA. Sometimes a simple look can be carried off quite well, as Norm's ride proves.Gerry Reynolds' '29 Ford roadster pickup has been heavily channeled and, with its suicide front suspension, made even lower.
We didn't see too many Model A coupes at the show, but we sure liked Mike Trussell's '31 in from San Diego. The aluminum Olds V-8 was topped with twin carbs.Color combinations between the paint and the tone of the wood can either make or break the overall look of a woodie, and Ric Bonnoront's '41 Plymouth LX SW P-12 was done right. A 201-inch six-cylinder sits up front.Even though most of the woodies at Del Mar were fairly mild in the customization category, Brian Hill's '39 featured some rather radical bodywork to go with the bird's eye maple skin.Good Wood was a separate area set aside for woodies at the Del Mar Nationals, and 58 of them obliged. It seems all years were in attendance, from the '20s to the '50s, and even a pair of rare Ford Sportsman convertibles showed up.Later-model woodies, such as Gerry Gamet's black '51 (with a 5.0L Ford) and Rich Cravens' green '51 (with a 350/700-R4) were well represented too.Sam Foose (father of Chip and a great car builder in his own right) just finished working on Ed Lambert's '47 Ford Sportsman, which has a well-detailed Flathead underhood. Only a few thousand Sportsmans were produced between 1946 and 1948, making the survivors quite rare.

Bank of America to pay $11.6 billion settlement to Fannie Mae
Newscast Media CHARLOTTE, N.C—Bank of America Corp has announced a settlement deal with Fannie Mae of $11.6 billion for bad mortgages of nearly a decade's worth of home loans, as a result of Bank of America's acquisition of Countrywide Financial Corp. five years ago.
The agreement is also separate from an $8.5 billion foreclosure-abuse settlement between regulators and 10 banks, including Bank of America, additionally announced Monday. That pact is in addition to another settlement reached last February, where five large banks, including Bank of America, agreed to a $25 billion settlement with the Obama administration and 49 state attorneys general.
Under the deal announced Monday, the bank will pay $3.6 billion to Fannie Mae and buy back $6.75 billion in loans that the North Carolina-based bank and its Countrywide banking unit sold to the government agency from Jan. 1, 2000 through Dec. 31, 2008, according to the Washington Post.
In layman's terms here's what happened:
(i) Mortgages that were generated over the last decade were bundled together into Mortgage-Backed Securities, and placed into a pool.
(ii) The pools are then placed into a trust called a Real Estate Mortgage Investment Conduit Trust (REMIC) and a Trustee is appointed to oversee the trust.
(iii) The trustee then hires a servicer whose duty is to collect money on behalf of the REMIC trust, and the servicer is paid a small fee for collecting these monies from homeowners.
(iv) Meanwhile, the Mortgage-Backed Securities are sold on the secondary market as derivatives, which are insured with Credit Default Swaps in case the trust goes under.
(v) The mortgage changes hands as it is bought and sold multiple times on the secondary market throughout the world, making it virtually impossible to identify who owns the loan, due to the use of MERS (Mortgage Electronic Registration Systems) on the deed of trust. The lack of transparency of MERS prevents anyone from knowing the true and actual owner of the mortgage.
*It is the reason why when you send a "Qualified Written Request" to a servicer asking for the trust documents and the real owner of the loan, in 100 percent of the cases, the servicers cannot provide such information because the loan changed hands multiple times when bought and sold as a Mortgage Backed Security. This practice has clouded the titles of securitized mortgages from 2003-2010.
What went wrong
(vi) The problem with Bank of America and other banks that were sued is that all these mortgages were fraudulent, because the Notes were not transferred into the REMIC trusts. The trusts were empty!
(vii) To prevent the financial collapse, the banks declared the mortgages "toxic assets" and requested bailout money from the government under the Toxic Asset Relief Program (TARP), to halt a financial collapse. $16 trillion was extended.
According to an audit of the Federal Reserve by GAO (Government Accountability Office) below is some of the money the banks received:
Citigroup: $2.5 trillion ($2,500,000,000,000)
Morgan Stanley: $2.04 trillion ($2,040,000,000,000)
Merrill Lynch: $1.949 trillion ($1,949,000,000,000)
Bank of America: $1.344 trillion ($1,344,000,000,000)
Barclays PLC (United Kingdom): $868 billion ($868,000,000,000)
Bear Sterns: $853 billion ($853,000,000,000)
Goldman Sachs: $814 billion ($814,000,000,000)
Royal Bank of Scotland (UK): $541 billion ($541,000,000,000)
JP Morgan Chase: $391 billion ($391,000,000,000)
Deutsche Bank (Germany): $354 billion ($354,000,000,000)
UBS (Switzerland): $287 billion ($287,000,000,000)
Credit Suisse (Switzerland): $262 billion ($262,000,000,000)
Lehman Brothers: $183 billion ($183,000,000,000)
Bank of Scotland (United Kingdom): $181 billion ($181,000,000,000)
BNP Paribas (France): $175 billion ($175,000,000,000)

(viii) The banks receive trillions of dollars, and instead of correcting the defects, they sit on the money, and use some of it to buy up smaller failing banks.
(ix) Investors find out that the Mortgage-Backed Securities weren't in fact mortgage-backed—they were useless pieces of paper. Lawsuits are filed. Banks settle.
(x) Government teams up with homeowners and whistleblowers reaching a multi-billion dollar settlement with the banks for foreclosure abuse.
The latest settlement between Bank of America and Fannie Mae falls within the sequence of events just described above.

Real Housewives of Beverly Hills
Brandi Glanville's Top 6 Real Housewives Feuds in 2012
No one will ever accuse Real Housewives of Beverly Hills' Brandi Glanville of keeping her feelings to herself, which has led to a bumpy 2012 for the outspoken former model. To mark the end of the year, we're counting down her six biggest feuds from the past twelve months. Here's hoping that 2013 will be a bit calmer for her!
6. Scheana Marie
When someone introduces herself to you by saying, "Oh, you're the girl that had sex with my husband," it's safe to say you two haven't gotten off the right foot. And that's just what Brandi said to SUR employee Scheana Marie during last season's "Night of a Thousand Surprises," since Scheana had an affair with Eddie Cibrian while he was married to Brandi. It seems these two ladies may patch things up soon, but for now, Brandi is not Scheana's biggest fan.
5. Gerard Butler
Brandi has had plenty of feuds with people on the show, but she's also found time to squeeze in a few off-camera ones. Her relationship with 300 actor Gerard Butler supposedly started off steamy, as she says that the two spent a week shacking up together in 2011 — and that his bedroom prowess ranks an "11 out of 10." Wow! However, he then asked TMZ, "Who's Brandi Glanville?" which led Brandi to tweet that he "can suck it." So much for the love.
4. Taylor Armstrong
Tension between Brandi and Taylor peaked when Brandi called out Taylor at the Season 2 reunion for writing a book about her marriage. Things haven't lightened up much between them this season, with Taylor referring to Brandi as her "nemesis" at Yolanda's dinner party, and then complaining in Ojai when Brandi mentioned her own book deal. These two may no longer be quite on the outs, but they still have some work to do before they're friendly.
3. LeAnn Rimes and Eddie Cibrian
LeAnn Rimes has only been referred to sparingly on the show, but there has been no shortage of off-camera drama between these two. Brandi has accused LeAnn of being addicted to laxatives and Adderall and has been offended by LeAnn referring to Brandi and Eddie's sons as "my boys" and by the fact that LeAnn uses her sons on TV. Meanwhile, Eddie has gotten into the fray, telling Brandi to "grow up." So it's not exactly a friendly break-up.
2. Faye Resnick
Brandi's feud with Kim Richards and Kyle Richards was more of a 2011 thing, but it's lingering impact has created a new dust-up between Brandi and Kyle's friend Faye Resnick. Things got ugly between these two at Kyle's dinner party, with Faye accusing Brandi of attacking people and spewing lies about Adrienne and Kim. Luckily, Brandi walks away from the table before things got way out of control.
1. Adrienne Maloof and Paul Nassif
Brandi's wildest feud of the year was between Adrienne and Paul, after Brandi's comments about their family at Lisa's tasting. Then, once Kim fills them in at Mauricio's event, Adrienne and Paul fire back, making accusations about Brandi's parenting and supposed drug use as the word "bitch" is thrown around a million times. Paul and Brandi have since made amends, but Brandi and Adrienne have yet to reconcile. Let's hope that's what the new year is for!

We have installed ZCS 8.04 on a vps that is also running Plesk control panel. When I try to go to the admin console, we get this error message:
Firefox can't establish a connection to the server at washington.telesouth1.com:7071.
The guys at our server support group say that Zimbra is conflicting with Plesk. I highly doubt this since Plesk does not use this port. Any thoughts?
Thank you in advance.

Used any canned beans I had unhand. Threw a bag of frozen green beans in with pasta. REALLY yummy! I've had 2 bowls and its still warm.
Not so great. I should have cut it in half, it made so much. I should have cut the carrots thinner so they cooked more. They were still fairly crunchy when everything else was cooked well.
My favorite recipe on this site! It's amazing!

Aaaah, this is beautiful *__* God, I just LOVE how you coloured the wood and the tiles...
Hi all,
This piece, commissioned for the french RPG Wastburg (3rd add-on release April/May 2014) , was made a few weeks ago. It's digitally hand-drawn in Photoshop and its orginal size is 7x9"

Hope you'll like it. As usual, feel free to rate, rep or run away
Aaaah, this is beautiful *__* God, I just LOVE how you coloured the wood and the tiles...
I agree - I like the blended edges of everything - the fine line to define the shape in just the right colour so that it isn't too jarring and unreal
Do you use brushes or tiles (or whatever they're called!) for the wood or is it all done by hand?
max why is the border bugging me? :/
Also I LOVE the roof tiles. Is that POTATOES?
Have you "liked" a post today?
No, it's not an issue of taste... it feels unbalanced... ? Idk ... I see things funny... maybe it's just that it's so much lighter than the mappy part? idk
I want some potato beer ! D:
Have you "liked" a post today?
I love the map, and I must say I also love the border, so I think it is a matter of taste - and for me its yummy.
Gaaaaah this is where my fail explaining becomes an issue... I LIKE the border... i just...
I LOVE my purple/black geometric print blouse. I ADORE my yellow denim skirt. If I put them beside each other in the closet, my brain explodes.
I LOVE the map. I LOVE the border. When I look at them together, I get dizzy.
I don't know why... maybe I'm just weird x.x
Have you "liked" a post today?
Nice. Don't see too many hand drawn buildings and this one sets the bar high.
Edit: and wouldn't'cha know it, I can't rep you.

Stay Vigilant; Take Precautions to Defend Against West Nile Virus
The Denton County Health Department (DCHD) has confirmed its second West Nile virus-associated death for 2012. The patient was in her 80's, had underlying health conditions, and resided in the City of Carrollton. For patient confidentiality, no further information will be released. West Nile virus is a potentially serious virus that is transmitted by mosquitoes. Less than 1% of those infected with West Nile virus will experience the serious form of the illness (West Nile Neuroinvasive Disease). Serious symptoms include high fever, severe headache, neck stiffness, disorientation, tremors or convulsions, vision loss, muscle weakness, and numbness or paralysis. Residents experiencing any of these symptoms should immediately contact their health care provider. The elderly and individuals with underlying medical conditions are known to be at an increased risk. The majority of serious WNV infections and deaths occur in persons over the age of 50. Around 20% of those bitten by a West Nile virus-carrying mosquito may experience mild symptoms (West Nile fever), such as fever, headache, nausea, body aches, swollen lymph nodes, and skin rash. Approximately 80% of those bitten by an infected mosquito will not experience any symptoms. Residents should take the proper precautions to reduce their risk of getting Nile virus by remembering the four D's: • Drain standing water around their homes to reduce mosquito breeding grounds. Consider use of BTI briquettes (or mosquito dunks) in water that cannot be drained, such as small ponds and drinking troughs. • Stay indoors at Dusk and Dawn, when mosquitoes are most active. • Apply an insect repellent that contains DEET (N,N-diethyl-m-toluamide) to exposed skin and to clothing when outdoors. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) also recommends Picaridin (KBR 3023). • Dress in pants and long sleeves when outside, but avoid becoming too hot. Please visit the DCHD West Nile virus website (www.dentoncounty.com/heart/wnv), or call the West Nile virus hotline (940-349-2907) for more details about symptoms, prevention tips, county-wide contacts, reducing mosquitoes around your home, and disease statistics.

Allenstown's administrator takes job in North Hampton
Apple, who has served as town administrator for Allenstown since March 2010, will leave his position Jan. 16. The Board of Selectmen accepted his resignation at a special meeting Wednesday.
"My leaving Allenstown is bittersweet," said Apple. "I love the people I work with. I love the town and the people of the town. They have been extraordinarily gracious and kind to me for the last three years."
Allenstown Police Chief Shaun Mulholland has been appointed by the board to serve as interim town administrator, effective Jan. 16. Mulholland will serve in the position for an indefinite period until, according to a press release, "the Select Board members make a decision on how to permanently fill the position."
"With the deliberative session coming, they needed to fill that position quickly, and I think they wanted someone already working in the town to keep the transition smooth," said Mulholland, who has been an Allenstown employee for 18 years.
Mulholland expressed confidence that his skills and experience as the administrator of the police department will translate to his work at the town hall, noting that his was the "biggest department in town."
Mulholland also noted that he has the educational background for the position, having received a master's degree in public administration.
"Obviously there will be some things I have to learn over there," he said. "But I believe I'm prepared to take on this challenge."
Selectman Chair Jason Tardiff called the appointment "a significant step forward in ensuring that the affairs of the town continue to be effectively managed."
Mulholland will retain his position as police chief, though the daily management of the police department will largely fall to his second-in-command, Lt. Paul Paquette.
The turnover is not expected to bring "any significant interruption" to the town's deliberative session, which remains scheduled for Feb. 3. When asked if he was concerned about leaving the position so close to the deliberative session, Apple said that he was not worried, citing his confidence in Mulholland and the fact that much of the preparation work had already been done.
"I think Chief Mulholland is going to do a great job," said Apple. "I'm really, really happy about that appointment."
Apple will begin his work in North Hampton on Jan. 17, where he will receive an $80,000 annual salary. He will replace former North Hampton administrator Steve Fournier, who resigned in August 2012 to serve as administrator for Newmarket.
"North Hampton has reputation for being a really well-managed town, and there's some really interesting challenges that appeal to me," Apple said.
One of these challenges Apple noted was the multi-million dollar redevelopment of the Atlantic Avenue complex where the town offices, emergency and safety departments, and library reside.
Mulholland was appointed police chief in 2006. He was named Emergency Manager of the Year by the Local Government Center in 2010.

|Swatters come out, pesky flies won't quit
|Written by Chris Lee
They're pesky, sometimes hard to kill and definitely not a welcomed visitor. But the big question from everyone is, "Where in the heck did they all come from?"
Roughly a month ago, one couldn't walk outside without being harassed by a fly or numerous flies. Then, for a week, they disappeared. Last week, they returned.
Fly swatters have been working overtime trying to contain flies in homes, businesses and schools.
So the question still looms—where did all of the flies come from? Why are there considerably more flies right now? Finally, how can people get rid of or control the flies?
There are many species of flies.
The housefly, Musca domestica, is a fly of the suborder Cyclorrhapha. It is the most common of all domestic flies, accounting for about 91 percent of all flies in human habitations, and indeed one of the most widely distributed insects, found all over the world. It is considered a pest that can carry serious diseases.
Garbage cans around town have become mini cesspools of flies in recent weeks.
—Enterprise photo
Each female can lay about 500 eggs in several batches of about 75-150. The eggs are white and about 1.2 millimeters in length. Within a day, larvae, or maggots, hatch from the eggs. They usually live and feed on decaying organic material, such as garbage or feces.
They are pale, 3-9 millimeters long, have no legs and are thinner at the mouth end. The maggots live one week before they crawl to a dry, cool place and transform into pupae at the end of their third instar. The pupae are reddish or brown and about eight mm long. The adult flies then emerge from the pupae.
This entire cycle is known as complete metamorphosis. The adults live from two weeks to a month in the wild. After emerging from the pupae, the flies no longer grow. Small flies are not necessarily young flies. Instead, they are the result of getting insufficient food during the larval stage.
Thirty-six hours after having emerged from the pupa, the female fly is receptive for mating, making reproduction a quick process.
Flies depend on warm temperatures; generally, the warmer the temperature, the faster the flies will develop.
Perhaps this is why the area has been bombarded with flies recently. Having not experienced a freeze, the flies have been given an opportunity to live longer.
Houseflies feed on liquid or semiliquid substances beside solid material, which has been softened by saliva or vomit. Because of their high intake of food, they deposit feces constantly, one of the factors that makes the insect a dangerous carrier of pathogens.
Although they are domestic flies, usually confined to the human habitations, they can fly for several miles from the breeding place. They are active only in daytime and rest at night, e.g., at the corners of rooms, ceiling hangings, cellars and barns, where they can survive the coldest winters by hibernation. When spring arrives, adult flies are seen only a few days after the first thaw.
Those dumping grass clippings in recent weeks have undoubtedly been introduced to the increase in flies this summer. Getting in and out of vehicles quickly doesn't do much as the crafty flies find their way into vehicles no matter what.
—Enterprise photo
So what can be done to rid a house or business of all these flies?
The first step is to keep the house or office clean. Use orange, clove, lemon or basil oil in cleaning, as those oils repel flies. Make sure to keep surfaces wiped down and dry.
Also cover compost, garbage and platters of fruits or breads. Many companies make baskets for covering fruit platters with a fine mesh which allows the fruit to ripen without allowing flies to come in contact with it.
Another important item to install is screens on windows and doors so the home can ventilate without having insects enter. Always remember that tip the parents always said and keep the doors closed!
It has been shown that house flies do not like the smell of cloves, neither do some humans. They also don't like basil. Planting basil can repel flies so they will not be attracted enough to go in a home every time someone opens the door.
Fly traps are another method to get rid of the pesky flies. They are easy to use and are made for indoor and outdoor use.
Some people may opt for the buzzing of fly zappers. This is a little more expensive way to go. Fly zappers come in all shapes and sizes. The most common zapper hangs outside with a glowing light inside that zaps flies and other bugs away.
Zappers are also made that look like a tennis or badminton racket. These handheld devices zap flies right out of the air. There is also the common fly swatter which is what most people use when flies begin to get really bad.
Fly sprays are another way to go. There are many different types of sprays, pumps and wipes that repel flies.
An old school item is the citronella candle. These usually sit on a patio table or around the campfire during the summer.
No matter the device, hopefully people can find the one that works for them. Check around locally in Holyoke for a solution. They can be found in stores around town. Heck, a rolled up newspaper works part of the time!

Actor Steve Carell is returning to TV as the executive producer of a zany game show which pits celebrities and comedians against each other on a sloping stage.
The former "The Office" funnyman is set to helm eight-episode series "Slide Show" on the FOX network.
The show will feature a number of stars trying to sing, dance and perform sketches – all while balancing on a stage, which is tilted at a 22.5 degree angle.
Hoping for another big TV success, Carell jokes, "Comedy is subjective. But if you don't find 'Slide Show' to be funny and enormously entertaining, then you will never be my friend."
"Slide Show" is based on an international format, which has proven to be a hit in countries such as France, Australia and Portugal, and is scheduled to premiere in countries including Spain, the Netherlands and China in the coming months.

Of the existing accounts of Yasuaki Onishi's portfolio, few have investigated his work beyond commending the artists' ability to manipulate space. However, there is a strong link which runs throughout his entire body of work – namely the interaction between the ideas and implications surrounding kinetics.
Formally, Onishi's work not only manipulates, but depends on movement in order to convey the meaning behind each piece. In the two-dimensional realm, his long-exposure photography in his Shaved & Rolled series softens otherwise violent and immediate jolts of fire. Similarly in his sculptural installations, Onishi's works rise and fall – respiring as if to possess their own sentience.
Yet while elements of movement are prominent throughout his portfolio, the most striking example of Onishi's interest in motion lies in his Reverse Volume series. In relying solely on plastic sheeting, string, and black glue, the artist crafts monumental installations of imposing presence from materials which lack any substantial mass of their own. Although appearing firm, the mountainous incarnations gently bulge, crumple, and collapse in the natural drafts within the exhibition space. Thus breaking from the use of fans in his other works, the oscillation in Reverse Volume is calculated but not provoked.
As a viewer, one is left to ponder Onishi's paradox of mass and anti-mass. How does he reconcile the tacit respiration and ghost-like drifting of his installation? What does it mean to allow the slightest breeze to coerce a formation reminiscent of looming mountainscapes? A possible reading hinges on interpreting the piece as a fundamentally kinetic presence. Because of the choice in materials, the installation can not physically (or conceivably) remain static. Rather, it is manipulated by the surrounding atmosphere, just as a seaside cliff crumbles into the assailing waves below. In creating such formidable structures from delicate materials, the artist suggests that there is no such thing as the immovable. The precarious and impressionable existence of Onishi's installation in the exhibition space characterizes our world as a whole. Playing on the inherently ephemeral nature of installation art, Reverse Volume symbolizes inevitable change in our environment. It reminds us that what we hold as permanent amounts to nothing more than a cursory moment between growth and siege – a humbling notion still fresh in the minds of his audience following the natural disaster last year in Fukushima Prefecture.
If you are interested (and reasonably local), his work will open to the public on the 13th of April in the Rice University Installation Gallery in Houston and will be up until the 24th of June. Onishi will give a gallery talk at 6:00P on opening night with a volley at noon on the 14th. Admission is free so there's no reason to miss out. Also, check out the gallery below for some high resolution images courtesy of the curator.

EAST ST. LOUIS, Ill. (KSDK) - A 25-year-old Metro East man was sentenced after pleading guilty to possession with intent to sell crack cocaine, US Attorney for the Southern District of Illinois Stephen Wigginton said Friday.
A federal grand jury indicted John Arnold on June 20, 2012 on the drug charge. Arnold pleaded guilty on September 17, 2012.
A judge sentenced John Arnold to 151 months in federal prison, followed by three years of supervised release.
According to court documents, Arnold was arrested April 5, 2012 after being pulled over for traffic violations. A police computer check revealed Arnold's driver's license had been previously revoked. Police also discovered two baggies containing crack cocaine and a small amount of marijuana in Arnold's underwear. Arnold later admitted that he intended to sell the crack cocaine.

A minor in a world language provides enrichment to majors in other disciplines and enhances the chances of success in their chosen career. By minoring in a world language you become eligible to receive a generous Meta Marion Goldsmith Scholarship.
Requirements and Placement
Students who have studied world languages in high school should consult with an advisor before enrolling. Students who have had previous college level language study will enroll in the course for which they qualify on the basis of units accumulated. Students starting at 101A must complete 101A, 101B, 102, and another upper division course to satisfy the minimum number of units required by the University for a minor.
General Minor Waiver
18 units of World Language courses constitute the General Minor Waiver. Economics, journalism and administration of justice majors may satisfy the requirement for a minor by taking 18 units of world language.
Goals and Objectives
The Department of World Languages & Literatures has adopted the following competency goals for all its minors:
- Functional ability in the target language in the areas of speaking. listening, reading, and writing.
- Familiarity with customs of the target culture and ability to use the language in culturally appropriate ways.
- Basic knowledge of the geography, history and culture of the countries where the language is spoken.
Advising Procedures
Students are required to see an advisor prior to completing the minor form. However, we encourage students to declare a minor and see an advisor as soon as they develop an interest in the minor. Also, because many of our scholarships are available to minors, we urge students to file official documentation to qualify for scholarships and allow us to monitor the programs of those minoring in our programs.
Minor Requirement and Supplementary Teaching Credentials
The minors provide for partial fulfillment of the requirement by the California Commission on Teacher Credentialing for supplementary teaching credentials in world languages. The CCTC requires 20 semester units or 10 upper division units, and all our minors require at least 11 upper division units. Supplementary credentials, however, require verification of oral proficiency comparable to that of a person with a major in the language. Students who have completed only a minor do not always achieve this level of proficiency.
Minor Classes
Chinese Total 29 units
- 1A, 1B (5 units each)
- 25A, 25B (5 units each)
- 101A, 101B (3 units each)
- 102 (3 units each)

Conservation. Efficiency. Stewardship.
As Earth Day is celebrated worldwide today, the American Motorcyclist Association is highlighting three core values that its membership shares in protecting the environment and ensuring future riding opportunities for our children and grandchildren.
"Motorcyclists are proud of their contributions to the health of the planet, whether through physical labor in maintaining trails or planting trees or simply commuting to work and leaving the gas-guzzler at home," said Rob Dingman, AMA president and CEO.
The AMA supports responsible recreational access to public lands for use by off-highway vehicles, with the emphasis on "responsible."
Motorcyclists and all-terrain-vehicle riders join other users of public lands in maintaining trails, picking up litter and encouraging sustainable land use practices.
Clubs and individual riders team up with state and federal officials and professional land managers to plan off-highway access that remains in harmony with other uses while preserving important natural and cultural resources.
On April 15, the AMA renewed a five-year agreement with the Wayne National Forest.
"Really the message is to act responsibly, to ride safe and ride responsibly with respect for the environment. Stay on the trail," Dingman said.
Many motorcycles return 50 miles per gallon or more in fuel economy, while reducing highway congestion and alleviating parking problems. Motor scooters can achieve more than twice that mileage.
The manufacture of motorcycles and scooters consumes far less metal and plastic than automobile production.
And the lighter weight of the motorcycles helps extend the life of the nation's streets and highways.
When motorcyclists head out for a ride, their choice of two- and three-wheeled transportation proves they are good stewards of our planet.
"When you look at the big picture, it's clear that motorcycling contributes to the social good," Dingman said. "Motorcycle use improves the health of the planet by improving fuel economy, reducing pollution and congestion, and providing a fun outdoor activity for tens of thousands of people every day."
