UrineI have the worst ear infection I have ever had. My ear is all swelling and the Tylenol only works for like 2 hours. So my parents told me to try putting urine in my ear. That night I put 2 drops of my own urine in my ear and I went to bed as soon as I laid down. You might think it is super gross but it works. It soothes my ear when it hurts so I put more urine in my ear every time it starts to hurt.
(2) drops of urine
Then after you are down tilt your head over to get most of it out
it takes about 10 minutes
Then take warm water and rinse it out
I hope this works for you.

Apply heatMy mother always used peroxide for ear infection when I was a child and it always worked. It was always an instant relief. As an adult I still use it today for my kids ear infections and also for my own ear problems. Here is a HELPFUL HINT for everyone that I did not see in any of the other postings.
For a heat source I use the disposable Hand/Foot Warmers that my husband (who works outdoors) uses during the winter to keep his hands/feet warm. They stay warm for 8+ hours and are the perfect size to place over your ear. They are available at Wal-Mart etc. Usually located in the outdoors/hunting area. Hope this hint helps.

Peroxide and tea tree oilI squeezed a few drops into my ear, a few times, yesterday. Last night, I swabbed just the inside the outer ear canal with tea tree oil. I thoroughly brushed and flossed my teeth and swished for a minute with a peroxide mouthwash.
Then I swallowed a dose of the herbal pain remedy Noxicare. (you could use any or all of its ingredients: ginger, boswellia, turmeric, white willow bark, cayenne, and holy basil.
My formerly sore and swollen lymph gland in my neck is smooth and painless this morning. The ear is mildly itchy and still a little tender to the touch, but I plan to repeat the whole process, as there was such remarkable improvement.

A Elmo party theme is tons of fun for all ages. There are a few simple steps you can take to create an Elmo 1st Birthday Party appropriate for babies and toddlers.
- Browse our First Birthday Party Ideas Guide for some basic tips on planning a Elmo party for babies.
- Invite your Elmo party guests with our Elmo 1st Birthday Invitations.
- Decorate the birthday child's highchair with a>Elmo 1st Birthday Highchair Kit and a>Sesame Street 1st birthday bib.
- Bake or buy a small Elmo cake or cupcake just for the birthday child to smash into! Decorate with an Elmo candle and provide a separate cake for your adult Elmo party guests.
If you have the time to make your own invitations, here are a few ideas to consider for your Elmo birthday party:
- If you would rather not make your own invitations, but would still like a personalized touch, consider our Sesame Street invitations or>Fuzzy Friend Personalized Invitations, which include all the party details for you!
- Cut a circle out of red construction paper to serve as Elmo's head. Use colored construction paper for the details – black for a mouth, orange for a nose, and white for eyes. Write your party details in silver marker on the back.
- Have Elmo's pet fish Dorothy give your guests the party details! Cut the shape of a fish bowl out of blue construction paper. Draw pebbles and plants on the bottom. Paste a goldfish cutout in the middle, with a bubble coming out of her mouth that includes all the party details.
- Punch a hole in the corner of a card-style invitation and attach it to an Elmo zipper pull as a special gift to get your guests excited.
- Cut three circles out of colored construction paper. Glue them together so they overlap a bit. Punch a hole in the bottom of each circle and attach a small strand of ribbon. The finished product will resemble balloons. Decorate the two outer balloons with Elmo stickers and include the party details on the middle balloon.
- Include creative wording for your party details, such as:On Sesame Street lives a friendly monster,
He likes to giggle and has lots of red fur.
Who is it? Elmo of course! And he wants to say,
We hope you can make it to Sammy's birthday!
Decorating & Food Ideas
Make your little guests giggle with glee by using decorations that fit your theme! Here are a few Elmo party ideas:
- Use primary colors (blue, red, yellow) for your traditional party decorations such as streamers and balloons. Tie three to five balloons together to place around the party area.
- Add Mylar balloons to some of your balloon groups.
- Create a large "Sesame Street" sign out of green butcher paper. Stencil on the letters and hang it on one wall of your party area.
- Hang a banner above the entrance to the party area that reads "Yippee!! Hooray!! You Came to [birthday child]'s Birthday!" Take a look at our banners and let us do the work for you!
- Cut large letters and numbers out of brightly-colored construction paper to hang from the ceiling.
- Fill a fish bowl with water, paste a label to the front that says "Dorothy," and add a plastic goldfish.
- Play the "Sesame Street – The Best of Elmo" CD as background music.
- Place a group of stuffed animals on a large blanket where the children can sit during playtime.
- Set a bubble machine in one corner of the room.
It can be fun for the host and the guests to include theme-specific treats during the party. For an Elmo birthday party, consider the following ideas:
- Use a cookie cutter in the shape of the age your child is turning to cut peanut butter sandwiches, cheese slices, and deli meat slices.
- Make homemade pretzels in the shape of an E, L, M, and O. Sprinkle them with parmesan cheese, or cinnamon and sugar.
- For very young guests, set out a selection of teething biscuits and dry cereal in bright-colored bowls.
- Serve goldfish crackers with a little tent card that reads "Dorothy Snacks!"
- Serve water, juice and milk with silly straws. For a special treat, serve Jazzed Up Juice!
- Individual cupcakes, instead of a full cake, can be fun and more manageable for a toddler party. Frost the cupcakes in red frosting, and add mini marshmallow eyes, an orange gumdrop nose and a black licorice mouth. Place chocolate chips on top of the mini marshmallows to look like eyeballs.
Elmo Cake Idea
- If you would like to serve cake, try creating an Elmo cake with the following instructions.
- Bake a round cake and frost the entire thing in red frosting.
- Use a knife to create waves in the frosting so it looks like Elmo's fur.
- Use marshmallow fluff or white frosting to make the eyes.
- Use Junior Mints for the eyeballs.
- Create a long oval shaped nose using orange icing.
- Finally, draw a black mouth using decorator icing.
Or, simply use an>Elmo Cake Pan to make an Elmo cake.

Best Busker Balla Tounkara Performs at the BPP
Balla Tounkara, kora player and singer handily won our first BPP Best Busker contest last week. Tounkara claims that he's a 40th generation kora player, and based on the way he played that rare instrument at the BPP yesterday, it's a hard point to argue. Here he is, your champion, Balla Tounkara with his original piece, "Nina".
BONUS: After the jump, Balla discusses his rare and possibly "powerful" instrument with Rachel.

Thank you for introducing him to the larger audience thru your program. I parked on my driveway listening until the end... I was very touched by the sound of the instrument and his singing. I'm getting his albums so I can hear more of him without searching for him on the subway platforms.
Please feature more subway musicians.

Every actress hopes that an opportunity will come along to play an iconic role that could bring her out of obscurity and make her a star. For Choi Hee Jin (Yoo In Na), that opportunity is in a television drama playing the role of Queen In Hyun (Kim Hae In), who was deposed during the Chosun Dynasty as King Suk Jong's (Seo Woo Jin) consort by the scheming actions of Lady Jang (Choi Woo Ri). But Hee Jin's modern-day world collides with that of her character in ways she doesn't fully understand. Kim Boong Do (Ji Hyun Woo), a scholar from the Chosun era, is mysteriously transported 300 years into the future to modern-day Seoul and comes into Hee Jin's life as she is preparing for her career-making role. Boong Do not only knew the real queen but also supported her reinstatement. Was Boong Do brought to the future to help Hee Jin bring some authenticity to her role as the queen? "Queen In Hyun's Man," also known as "Queen & I," is a 2012 South Korean drama series directed by Kim Byung Soo.

Ah, where to start... First off, this drama was amazing! The cast were lovable in their own ways, and the dense, unlucky main heroine was endearing and realistic. The chemistry and relationships in this drama is beyond amazing. I cried when watching this. I seriously recommend this to anyone! Throw all doubts you have about this drama away and watch it! You will love it!!!

Made for 2013 Zaar Cookbook Tag game and what a hit. I did cut the recipe down but otherwise followed the instructions. Definately a keeper and one I will make again. Thank you for posting.
I made this a few months ago for a pot luck at my work & forgot to rate it. This was soooo good and it made ALOT. I ended up w/ quite a bit left just because there was so much of it in the first place. It was really good the second day even though it was a little mushy. I think the flavors really had time to meld together. I LOVED the addition of the corn- it gave just enough sweetness. The ranch dressing was really good!!! I know alot of people who make their taco salad w/ catalina dressing, but I prefer it w/ the ranch!! THANKS! I'll be making this again~
OH my goodness, this was to die for!!!!! The corn added just the right amount of sweetness to the salad. I also decreased the recipe down to 4 servings but I would not hesitate to make this again for a party. It was that good!!!
This was wonderful!!! I thought it would be a light summer dinner... but I was so stuffed! I reduced the recipe to 4 servings and it was perfect. I browned the meat along with Cheddar flavored Taco Seasoning and some salsa. Wonderful flavors! Love the crunchy chips in the salad! I made the salad about 5 hours ahead of time and kept it in the fridge. When I was ready to serve it I lightly heated the meat and then mixed it all together with the chips and topped it with dressing once it was plated ... so simple and so much flavor.
This was enjoyed by all. I served it just a little different, by placing everything out so that each family member could combine what they wanted for their salad. I served this at the lake with my sister and brothers' families. Thanks for a great meal.
I've been looking & looking for a great potluck salad,something really quick and easy, and be able to put together at a campout, with minimum facilities ...and this fits the bill! To "test" drive beforehand, I cut the recipe in half, and fixed With Baked taco salad shell bowls #54417...Outstanding! I won't be able to do the baked bowls at the family reunion, but the this recipe will stand on it's own! Thanks so much for posting this!

VII. Climate control: Many new features for a pleasant atmosphere
During the systematic further development of the entire climatic system, a particular focus was placed on the development goals of performance, air quality, precise regulation, noise level and efficiency. As a new feature, the AIR-BALANCE package comprises perfume atomisation, ionisation and even more efficient filtration compared to the standard model. The THERMOTRONIC automatic climate control in the rear has two additional zones to improve thermal comfort. Electric heating of the armrests, is a completely new feature.
The newly developed climate control unit of the THERMOTRONIC automatic climate control included as standard has a mass flow regulating concept whose automatic operating principle meets individual comfort requirements for every occupant. New features include completely autonomous adjustment options for the driver and front passenger sides with respect to temperature level, air distribution and air volume, for the front footwell temperature with a warmer or cooler tendency and also for the individual automatic modes with their climatic settings of "Focus", "Medium" and "Diffuse". The profiles, which differ in air volume and air distribution, can be conveniently set via the COMAND Online system.
The AIR-BALANCE package: perfuming, ionisation and improved filtration
As a world first, the new S-Class Saloon has an "active perfuming system" as part of the AIR-BALANCE package. 'Active' means that the perfuming system is switched on and off manually, with manual adjustment of the intensity. The perfuming system has various operating modes:
- On/Off
- Intensity control "low – medium – high"
- Perfume selection by exchanging the flask in the fragrance generator
A high-quality fragrance introduced into an already luxurious interior like a perfume enhances the sensual impression of the Mercedes-Benz interior by appealing to the sense of smell. In all advanced cultures, high-quality fragrances are part of the repertoire of sensual pleasure and individuality. Perfuming individualises the smell of the interior. The interior smell is not changed permanently, nor are the perfume molecules deposited on fabric surfaces or clothing. The fragrance is discreet and mild, and dissipates rapidly. Four interior fragrances (FREESIDE MOOD, NIGHTLIFE MOOD, DOWNTOWN MOOD, SPORTS MOOD) are available in attractively designed flasks. The fragrances were developed in collaboration with the perfume specialist Marc vom Ende (see "Under the microscope").
The perfuming system consists of two parts: a glass flask with an atomiser head and the fragrance generator in the glove compartment. The system uses the effect whereby there is a constant exchange of matter on the surface of a solution. In the process, molecules enter the gaseous phase (volatilisation) while other molecules are returned to the liquid. If a partial airflow is passed over the surface of the liquid, the air can be enriched with the molecules of the chosen fragrance. The perfumed air is then passed directly into the vehicle interior via a separate aperture. A bypass system allows the flow rate per unit of time to be variably adjusted. This active perfuming system is a further development of the fragrance ball familiar from the MAYBACH ZEPPELIN.
Air filtering: fresh air for a fresh interior
Another component of the AIR-BALANCE package is filtering of the outside air fed into the vehicle interior by the climate control system, and of the air recirculating in the interior in air recirculation mode. The filter system is now even more efficient, and is able to reduce the peak levels of certain gaseous emissions while lowering their concentration below the perception threshold. The filter system consists of two combined fine dust/activated charcoal filters between the intake and air distribution system of the air conditioner.
Activated charcoal is used as the filter material for the interior by virtue of its good ability to absorb gaseous pollutants and odours. It is produced from coconut shells. The sophisticated pollen filter technology in the fine dust filter component is particularly useful for allergy sufferers. At Mercedes-Benz these filters are examined for effectiveness in both new and used condition, to ensure that their filtering efficiency is maintained at least until the next vehicle service.
Ionisation is another component of the AIR-BALANCE package, the air from the climate control unit being conducted into the interior via an ioniser. In a combined operating mode this renders certain viruses, bacteria and spores inactive (cleaning effect). At the same time the air can be freshened by an increased concentration of negatively charged oxygen ions (relaxing effect).
Warmth Comfort package: heated armrests and seat heating Plus
The new S-Class Saloon is available with the optional Warmth Comfort package for all engine variants. This includes:
- heated front armrests (door and centre armrests)
- fast-action seat heating Plus for driver and front passenger
- heated steering wheel
- heated rear armrests (door and centre armrests)
- Seat heating Plus in the rear
The innovation in this package is the armrests, whose surfaces can be heated by heating elements on the same principle as seat heating. Originally conceived for the energy-efficient heating of electric cars, this panel heating in the S-Class makes for a particularly cosy environment. The armrest heating is switched on and off using the seat heating switch in the door panel, and can be deactivated via COMAND Online. The heating output of seat heating Plus can reach up to 2000 watts per sq. m., and can already be felt in the sensitive lumbar area after ten seconds.
Climate control: multiple adjustments, high efficiency
The new climate control system in the new S-Class combines energy efficiency with comfortable temperatures on every seat, and sets new standards in terms of the adaptability of automatic operation to the individual wishes of the occupants.
The new automatic climate control is operated via:
- the newly developed control panel below the centre vent
- the climate menu in COMAND Online
- the rear control panel in the rear centre console (if the optional rear climate control is specified).
To improve climatic comfort in the rear even further, a newly developed, water-flow controlled two-zone THERMOTRONIC rear automatic climate control system installed in the centre console is available as an optional extra. The air is taken into the interior of the centre console. The cooled air flows through a water-flow controlled heat exchanger, and is distributed to the separate left/right centre vents, the rear footwells and the vents in the B-pillars. Air distribution to both sides is automatically controlled by four step motors.
The basic functions of the air conditioning, i.e. automatic operation, temperature adjustment, air volume, residual mode, recirculation, defrost and heated rear window can be directly controlled by buttons in the front control panel. Other climatisation functions such the auxiliary heater, perfume atomisation, ionisation and footwell temperature can be accessed via the climate status display in the head unit, where the air distribution and ventilation modes are also accessible.
The air volume and distribution control have been developed further and improved in comparison to the climate control system in the preceding series. This means:
- Automatic modes "Medium" (comparable to the same mode in the previous model), "Diffuse" (for the lowest possible airflow, and not aimed directly at the occupants; most of the air flows into the interior from the defrosting and footwell vents) and "Focus" (a higher volume of air mainly from the ventilation vents)
- Separately adjustable fans for the driver and front passenger
- Front footwell temperature can be individually made warmer or cooler in five stages, and separately for the driver and front passenger.
The heat exchanger in the heating circuit has an output of 9.7 kW at an air volume of 8 kg/min. Diesel models are equipped with a heat exchanger featuring three integrated PTC heating element rows with a selectable six-stage heating output of 1.5 kW. An electronically commutated auxiliary water pump allows residual heat operation when the ignition is switched off. The flat-tube evaporator in the refrigerant circuit has an output of 8.8 kW. In non-hybrid models the refrigerant compressor is variably externally controlled, and incorporated into the belt drive system via a magnetic coupling.
A large number of sensors are used to regulate the automatic climate control, e.g. venting and evaporation sensors, potentiometers in the vent selector wheels, multifunction sensor with moisture measuring cell and a ventilated interior sensor for the interior temperature in the area of the overhead control panel. Solar radiation is registered with the help of two separate solar sensors on the left/right of the interior, a sensor in the cockpit and a sensor on the parcel shelf. GPS navigation data are used to determine the direction of the sun and the altitude above sea level (elevation). In case GPS navigation data are not available, a fallback calculation of the sun's direction is made on the basis of the vehicle-encoded country of delivery, the time of day and the date.The air conditioning control system is then able to respond to a heat build-up caused by direct solar radiation, even when the solar sensors have not yet registered any change in the interior, e.g. if it is wholly or partly shaded by the A/B/C-pillars or roof.
Energy-efficient climate control: economical heating and cooling
Various measures have been incorporated to make the climate control system as energy-efficient as possible.
- Energy-efficient controlwith variable evaporation temperature and misting sensor
- PWM (pulse width modulated) blower control unit
- Internal heat exchanger with efficient cooling circuit
- Externally controlled refrigerant compressor with magnetic coupling (non-hybrid models)and internal oil separator
- Electronically controlled refrigerant compressor which can be operated within the most efficient range, whatever the engine speed
- Maximum heating combustion as efficient auxiliary heating for diesel models
- Green-tinted thermal insulation glass all-round as standard
- Optional extra: thermally and noise-insulated, infrared-reflecting laminated safety glass all-round
- Efficient surface heating as an optional extra
- Thermal insulation of the interior in combination with NVH measures.
As an optional extra, an auxiliary heater with radio remote control is available as part of the climate control system. In this way the interior of the parked vehicle can be heated or ventilated with fresh air, with activation as follows:
- Control panel in the vehicle
- Preset function using COMAND Online and the central control panel. The activation time is calculated automatically as a function of the vehicle's external and internal temperature
- Radio remote control with acknowledgement of successful transmission, also display of the remaining heating or ventilating time.
VIII. Under the microscope: Interview with Marc vom Ende - The fourth dimension of sensuality
Marc vom Ende developed the fragrances for the new perfume atomisation system in the S-Class. The 44 year-old is a senior perfume specialist for the fragrance manufacturer Symrise in Lower Saxony, heads its perfumery school and is a member of the jury for the innovation awards of the German perfumery retailers association. We spoke to him about his creations for Mercedes-Benz.
Mr vom Ende, you have already created world-famous perfumes such as "IcebergHomme" or "Alain Delon". Was it a particular challenge to create fragrances for a vehicle this time, for the new S-Class?
When I apply a body perfume I am expressing my personality and the mood I happen to be in. The requirement is similar for the interior smell of the S-Class: here too we should reflect the character of the individual driving the car, and also the atmosphere of the car itself. It was fundamentally important to me that the fragrances reflect certain personalities and characters. I did not want bland fragrances without a clear profile, but rather distinctive fragrances as an expression of a distinctive personality – in keeping with the ideals of the Mercedes-Benz brand.
How does a perfumery expert tackle this task, how were the perfume compositions for Mercedes-Benz created?
We always work with images that inspire us, and which we try to recreate with fragrances. As perfumers we know the entire range of available raw materials, and experience tells us which combinations lead to what results, creating certain harmonies. We gradually approach this ideal image.
When I started the development work I paid a visit to the interior designers in Sindelfingen. We had a very interesting exchange of views which caused me to deviate from the approach I had envisaged. Originally I wanted to work with the smell of leather, but then realised that the car itself smells of leather, and that my fragrances must go hand in hand with this. A visit to the research workshops allowed me to see the brand from a completely different point of view, and gave me new ideas for suitable fragrances. The presentation of the F800, for example, inspired me to create the perfume DOWNTOWN MOOD. The car is so delicate in structure, so light and airy, and I went home with the idea of this perfume in my mind.
So when creating the perfumes you took your inspiration from the interior of the S‑Class?
Yes, I already got to know the S-Class during an early development phase. But far more important to me was the brand itself and the working approach of the designers. I was very impressed with the care taken when selecting the individual materials and colour combinations. This gave me a new stimulus and point of view for my own assignment.
Have you had an opportunity to experience the perfume atomiser in the new S‑Class 'live'?
Yes, I was able to test the perfume atomiser in an S-Class, and during the creative work I also had a portable atomiser available. Being able to test the perfume atomiser was extremely important to ensure that the intensity of the fragrance is at the right level. We initially work with strips of paper, but the result produced by the technology used in the S-Class is different. In this case the perfume reveals its entire sensuality.
Could you briefly characterise the four S-Class fragrances – FREESIDE MOOD, DOWNTOWN MOOD, SPORTS MOOD and NIGHTLIFE MOOD?
Lightness predominates in FREESIDE MOOD, with pleasant, high-quality citrus touches. The fragrance is very balanced without excessive nuances, and therefore does not polarise opinion. It is unobtrusive yet present. DOWNTOWN MOOD outstandingly suits the interior, and has a floweriness with a subdued metallic effect. Warm, musky nuances make the fragrance sexy, and thanks to a touch of powdery sensuousness, it is the most feminine of all the perfumes. After a while the fragrance has a very atmospheric effect on the interior, without really being prominent. During the test drives I absolutely fell in love with this fragrance. SPORTS MOOD enlivens with a pleasant, natural freshness reminiscent of young light-green leaves, rounded off with slightly flowery nuances. And right from the start, NIGHTLIFE MOOD reminds one of opening a box of expensive cigars bedded in an aroma of warm, luxurious wood. A touch of ambergris accentuates the high quality of this fragrance. I associate NIGHTLIFE MOOD with the image of a heavy leather armchair in front of the fire in a room panelled with exotic wood, a glass of brandy on the side table (lending a fruity touch) and a cigar.
IX. Under the microscope: actuators make the S-Class more comfortable - More than 100 little helpers
The new S-Class features highly sophisticated, automatic climate control functions. The seats likewise lay claim to being the benchmark in automobile engineering. In both cases this is accompanied by maximum operating convenience, ensured by numerous actuators and electric motors – there are over 100 of these in the interior alone.
In the fan filter tract of the air conditioning unit the air is taken in by a blower consisting of a twin-shaft motor and two impellers. The temperatures in the four air mixing chambers are regulated to the desired vent temperatures by the use of mechanically coupled cooling and warming flaps. A total of 14 step motors control the flaps of the mixing zones and air vents, and three step motors (four if the optional THERMOTRONIC rear automatic climate control is specified) control the flaps in the air ducts to the side vents and rear centre vent. There is also a step motor in each of the two air deflectors in the rear footwell. Plus there is the rear fan and a fan for the temperature sensor, making a maximum total of 21 motors.
With full specifications, up to nine seat adjustment motors bring each of the front seats and EASY ADJUST luxury head restraints into position. There are also six seat ventilation motors. In the rear there are up to twelve motors for each seat. This means that in an S-Class, 54 actuators take care of occupant seating comfort, while two more move the steering wheel to the desired position. There are also 14 pneumatic massage cells per seat, each of them activated by solenoid valves.
Other motorised helpers:
- Four power window motors
- Five motors controlling exterior mirror adjustment, folding and the parking position for the front passenger mirror
- Five motors for silent closing of the doors and boot lid
- Two motors move the tweeters in the mirror triangles if the Burmester® High-End 3D Surround Sound system is ordered (incidentally this has 24 speakers)
- A vibrating unit in the steering wheel in conjunction with Active Lane Keeping Assist
- A fan motor for the central display
- Two motors powering the panoramic sliding sunroof and sunblind
- Three motors powering the electric sunblind for the rear window and those in the rear doors
- Two motors for the rear belt feeders, two motors for the reversible belt tensioning in the front
- Two motors for the DVD players.

A house fire Tuesday afternoon has closed down traffic on Highway 17 in Jones County.
The fire happened around 3:45 p.m. at a home north of Pollocksville. Fire trucks have one lane of the busy highway blocked. Authorities are alternating traffic between the open lane.
Traffic was backed up to Maysville at one point, so motorists should avoid the area.
The home is a total loss because of the fire. The fire marshal says it appears to have started because of an electrical problem in a front bedroom. No one was at home when the fire broke out.

If you tend to be extremely dry, you can use a cream or lotion containing a humectant such as glycerin or an antioxidant emollient such as tocopherol acetate (vitamin E). For oily skin, go with a gel, spray, or lotion with a high water or alcohol content that will evaporate quickly from your skin, try one of the new SPF cleansers, or use a mineral suncreen powder. Look for "oil-free," "hypoallergenic," and "noncomedogenic" on labels. Those with sensitive skin should try a water-based lotion with physical UVA blockers, since chemical sunscreens often irritate their skin. Blue Lizard is a favorite brand for people with extremely sensitive skin.

I went there on a Saturday night with other 6 friends. All girls!
We've signed up before on the online guest list so we pay only 5 pounds at the entrance. If you want to go there without guest list you pay 10£.
I stayed there dancing from 10 pm until almost 3 am. Few pros and cons below:
- nice music, good selection of hip hop, dance, 80s and 90s.
- not so crowdy place, we had our...more
For such a big venue, The Clapham Grand sure do have trouble managing their stock levels. Every time I've been here the taps are off and the beer in the fridge is warm, not really ideal.
I don't really get the insistence on a live band playing the same boring covers over and over, although the last time I was here the guy had a pretty good repertoire - busting out a solo version of 'Shake it...more
Always a good night! Right next to Clapham Junction station so super convenient for the trains and over ground. Drinks aren't exciting but there quite reasonable for London, around £4.50 for a G&T. Good atmosphere and some awesome events - went to Rebel Bingo there; beyond fun!more
The Grand, Clapham is an old time music hall theatre. It is a bit run down and scruffy but it has a huge stage, bar, and private boxes or stalls seating. They have singers and groups performing from 70s groups like the Chi-lites to more contemporary acts. It is also the venue for a beer festival.
It is quite an historic building.more
Very cool venue. Did this place used to be a theatre? It almost looks like it could've been with the circle and upper circle. It certainly seems very 'grand' and a great place to party. There's a good sized dance floor area with plenty of places to hang around the sides. A reasonable sized bar too. I went to The Clapham Grand for an event rather than as a regular clubber so I can't say what...more

■ (AGN MEDIA DIRECTOR of Commentary Dave) Henry: HUD gives homey Amarillo a hurdle (Low-income housing could cost city $290,000):
Governments shouldn't be buying houses for people anyway.
When you help someone buy a house who cannot afford to make the payments afterward, is anyone surprised when they default on their loan? This is one of those feel-good programs where emotion and good intentions trump logic and common sense, and that usually makes (a poor person's) financial/credit situation worse than it was before.
old time farm boy
In some of the cases mentioned, the borrowers didn't default, but they sold the house prior to living in it five years, and are consequently required to repay the subsidy, but apparently are not.
■ THE NEW FACE of food stamps: working-age Americans:
Working people should get the help.

■ EDITORIAL: TAKE WHAT you can get in D.C. (U.S. Rep. Mac Thornberry votes in support of House spending bill):
So, the point of this editorial really is compromise is the art of politics. Glad to see this lesson being relearned by Congress.
■ LETTER: HUSBAND CONCURS: Dumpster-diving is necessary:
My daddy was a proud dumpster diver from years ago. After he retired he picked up this new hobby. If he could recycle it for cash, he did so. If he could clean it up, it went in a garage sale. Mama was embarrassed to say she wore clothes from a dumpster (he found some nice stuff), so she said it came from "playmart." It gave him something to do after he was retired/disabled from the Air Force, and no one would hire him. He never bothered anyone by dumpster diving, and he got a lot of enjoyment out of his hobby. The extra money he earned was an added bonus. Fining someone for digging in the trash is stupid.

He needs to be shipped off back to his motherland. Sick of hearing about him and his inability to act like a civil adult.

Don't let the so-so website fool you, this park is a real gem. Located next to an Army Corps. river/dam recreation area, it used to be owned by the county, but a really nice family took it over two years ago, and they're doing a stellar job keeping it lovely, clean and green. Campsites are HUGE, and there's lots of room to roam. They offer lots of fun activities, and it's a good central point to explore Amish country PA. There are 12 seasonal campers but their sites are super clean and nice. This is the best place to stay in this part of PA. We were nicely surprised. Patronize it if you're in the area, you'll enjoy it. - LiveWorkDream

So we're on the cusp of finding out if our bubba # 2 is a boy or girl and so DH and I have been conversing about circumcising. He was, for religious purposes. When I had my girl 3.5 years ago, we had decided that if it had been a boy, we would have circumcised, as it seemed at the time that research still pointed to an overall reduction in infection rates in circumcised boys.
My confusion lies in the fact that I have been reading in several places -mostly boards like this, I mean- that the WHO now does NOT favour circumcision, and that was the stand I first took up with this baby. DH was not sure, so we have been doing some research, and it turns out, the WHO does not feel any different than from 3.5 years ago. While their controlled tests were carried out mostly in Africa, where HIV rates are abnormally high, I feel that this might be a somewhat skewered group to bring results out of. DH thinks that by testing in Africa, it would actually put to test the fact of whether circumcising does or does not help with reduction in infection rates.
Can anyone point me to anywhere where it says otherwise? I know about the AAP reco, and in fact, this also reverted two days back to finding that circumcision DOES reduce the possibility and instances of infection of several types.
What do you think?

Sen. Al Franken is asking Apple for more clarity on privacy and security concerns he has with its use of fingerprint recognition technology in the new iPhone 5S.
Sen. Al Franken is asking Apple for more clarity on privacy and security concerns he has with its use of fingerprint recognition technology in the new iPhone 5S.
The iPhone 5S, which went on sale Friday, includes a fingerprint sensor that lets users tap the phone's home button to unlock their phone, rather than enter a four-digit passcode.
But Franken said that the fingerprint system could be potentially disastrous for users if someone does eventually hack it. While a password can be kept a secret and changed if it's hacked, he said, fingerprints are permanent and are left on everything a person touches, making them far from a secret.
"Let me put it this way: if hackers get a hold of your thumbprint, they could use it to identify and impersonate you for the rest of your life," the Minnesota Democrat said in a letter to Apple CEO Tim Cook.

Apple Inc. officials didn't immediately return an email seeking comment on Franken's letter.
But the Cupertino, Calif., company has said that this kind of technology significantly boosts security for users.
According to Apple, the fingerprint data is stored on the phone in a place that's inaccessible to other apps and to Apple's remote servers. Apple also has put in a number of safeguards, including requiring a passcode after a restart and 48 hours of inactivity. In addition, Apple says it's not possible to take an existing fingerprint and convert it into something the phone will recognize, as the sensor reads a sub-epidermal layer of the finger.
Joe Schumacher, security consultant at Neohapsis, said Apple's fingerprint technology seems different and possibly more accurate than older readers, so most people shouldn't need to worry. But he said it could still be "a risk for any possible targeted individual," and much of the risk comes from not knowing many details.
"There is a big security risk with Touch ID without explicit understanding of how Apple is handling this data from storage to sharing with other entities," he said in a statement.
Meanwhile, anyone worried about fingerprint scan has the option of disabling the feature and sticking with the passcode.

Fantasy becomes reality for local musician, fan
In the summer of 1958, the Kingston Trio exploded onto the music scene with their hit single "Tom Dooley." In the era of Do-Wop and Elvis, their clean, crisp brand of folk music was like nothing anyone had ever heard before and it took the country by storm, quickly becoming the definitive sound of a generation. Other familiar songs of the Trio include "Scotch and Soda," "Sloop John B," "The Lion Sleeps Tonight," "Greenback Dollar," and "Where Have All The Flowers Gone." Scores of other artists and musicians followed down the trail the Kingston Trio had blazed and folk music reigned supreme until the music scene went electric with the arrival of the British Invasion.
