To get your size, measure comfortably around your head where your cap will sit, with a tape measure. Take that number in inches, divide by 3.14 (pi) and round up to the nearest eighth. This is your cap size. See the chart for size conversions.

Best hat I've ever owned! This is my second Kromer, I have a Mackinaw for fall and winter and the Field Cap in Wheat for spring and summer. I can't say enough about how much I like it. I'm outside almost all of the time and this hat as proved to be very durable, and very comfortable, and after a summer I washed it and now it has an awesome patina. I don't use the flaps a whole lot, but when the wind picks up, it's really nice to have. Mine was a little smaller than I anticipated based on the Mackinaw (which I owned first), I would recommend ordering one size larger than measured.

Be careful with the size when ordering, I own an original Kromer and was wanting something for the spring and summer so I ordered the field cap in the same size as the original and I should have gotten it a size smaller as this one seems to run big. Wore it in the rain hoping it'll shrink a bit, we'll see... Otherwise seems to be of the same good quality as the original.
My wife bought the field cap for my birthday. Love the longer bill to keep the sun off my face while fishing. Great hat! -Bry Bry
My first field cap. I own 9 wool SKs and one waxed cotten. Might get some strange looks wearing wool this summer. So I bought a moss colored field cap. The field cap fits comfortable just like the wool. Being in construction this cap will work great for me.
Packed or wore this beauty to the duck blind in California. Wool was nice in the cold morning, but the extra bill was an eye saver as temps and sun rose. If it rained (and it didn't do much of that this year) pulled out the wax camo. -Chuck
The field cap is great for warmer temps.I have an original which works well for the cold winter, but with the lighter field cap I can go Stormy Kromer year round. Life is good! -Stephen
I have been looking for a cap to keep my bald noggin warm for years. I got my Stromy 2 years and it the best cap I have worn and believe me I have tried them all being bald. I will never give it up. Thanks for keeping me warm. -Chrome dome
I found my cap in graphite while shopping on vacation in Northern MI. I also have an original cap in black.
The cap is well made and the material is rugged but not too heavy. I appreciate that their caps are fitted as I'm no fan of all of those adjustable strap hats which always seem to come undone or tear. -Karl
So glad that you can up with a warmer temp option while keeping the Kromer style. Great for spring & summer. Keep up the good work. -yooper girl
Fits perfect, and worth every penny! -Tank
I was psyched to see SK come out with a lighter weighted Kromer for summer temps. Worn it for about a week now and breaks in quite quickly compared to most hats I own. Very comfortable as well.
Can't wait for summertime temps! -Loon
You might not need instructions to wear your Stormy Kromer masterpiece, but there is a right way and a wrong way. The right way involves putting the cap on your head, grabbing the ear band on both sides and pulling down. There's no unfolding or flipping, and you don't have to take your cap off. Just pull down and settle in.

Quebecois Fiddling
Carr, Kevin, Strings
French-Canadian "crooked" tunes meld rhythm and grace
THE FIDDLING OF FRENCH CANADA-by which I mean Quebec and Acadia, including parts of New Brunswick, Prince Edward Island, and Nova Scotia-is a rich blend of the various streams of musical culture that have intermingled in Eastern Canada over the last four centuries. French settlers brought their violons with them, as well as their haunting balllads, heartrending complaints, and stirring call-and-response songs. The first ball in Quebec city was recorded by a disapproving clergyman in 1647. Later waves of Irish and Scots immigrants brought their own vibrant traditions of dance fiddling. Quebec was a major destination for Irish fleeing the potato famine, and some estimates say 40 percent of all Quebecois have some Irish ancestry. Add to the mix some English dance tunes and some cross-pollination from the Scots-Irish tradition as it evolved further south in America, and you have a music with a wild Celtic soul, at times majestic, at times rhythmic and swinging, full of quirky syncopations and imaginative melodic and structural twists.
Fiddle music is primarily dance music, and in French Canada the reel (in cut time), the march, and the six-huit (a tune in 6/8) are predominant. Waltzes are played, but they are recent additions; according to Lisa Ornstein, a leading scholar of the music, respected elders in the rural tradition, such as Louis "Pitou" Boudreault, played no waltzes.
The term jig needs a bit of explanation in the context of Quebecois music. In the Anglo-Celtic tradition a jig is always in triple meter, whereas in French Canada the gigue is a tune used for step dancing, invariably in duple meter. I was once playing fiddle in a restaurant and was asked by a Native American man to play a jig. When I began playing an Irish jig, he frowned. I asked where he was from and when he responded, "A reservation in northern Minnesota," I tried "St. Anne's Reel," a French-- Canadian standard. Excitedly, he clapped and told me that that was the kind of music he had heard as a boy, from old fiddlers with "a lot of French in them." He told me that the native and mixed--or Metis-people learned a lot of their music from French Canadians who trapped in their lands and intermarried with their ancestors. He described the tradition of house dances where each week someone would "bake the cake," meaning take out the furniture and host the dancing, which would often last all night long.
French-Canadian music is wonderfully danceable. Because in general the people danced to the beat, not the phrase, tunes evolved away from the Anglo-- Irish standard of AABB repeated eight-bar phrases and 32-bar length. Thus the tunes have unique numbers of bars, or an extra beat or two to suit the melody, or a change of meter for a few bars. These irregularly structured pieces are called "crooked" tunes or airs tordus. It has been suggested that this structural fluidity is like that found in the old French songs, which makes sense as the song and dance traditions are so strongly linked in social practice. What it means to modern enthusiasts is that the tunes are quirky, surprising, and great fun to play.
The music has an emphasis on the first beat of the measure, and though syncopation features heavily, it is not a music that relies on a repetitive backbeat. Rhythm is enhanced by the ubiquitous practice of fiddlers clogging with both feet while they play. …

Iraq was not notified on Turkish air strike
Iraqi leaders complained Monday that Turkey had not coordinated with Baghdad before sending warplanes to bomb Kurdish targets in northern Iraq. In Turkey, a U.S. Embassy official in Ankara said Washington was informed about the operation.
"It was a Turkish operation, it was a Turkish decision. We were informed," the official told The Associated Press. Iraq's Foreign Minister Hoshyar Zebari said the Iraqi government thought Turkey would coordinate with it before striking the rebels from the Kurdistan Workers' Party, or PKK, inside Iraq on Sunday. He also indicated that the fact Iraqi civilians died showed Turkey had not hit the right target.
"What happened yesterday was based maybe on misinformation," Zebari said.
As many as 50 fighter jets were involved in the airstrikes, Turkish media reported.
The attack came a month after the U.S. promised to share intelligence with Turkey to help combat the Kurdistan Workers' Party, or PKK and Turkey's military chief, Gen. Yasar Buyukanit, said U.S. intelligence was used Sunday. "America gave intelligence," Kanal D television quoted Buyukanit as saying. "But more importantly, America last night opened (the Iraqi) airspace to us. By opening the airspace, America gave its approval to this operation."

Town of closing Vt nuclear plant signs agreement
VERNON, Vt. (AP) — The select board in the Vermont town of Vernon has signed a contract with the owner of the closing Vermont Yankee nuclear plant that will stabilize the town's tax base through March 2015.
The deal sets the value of the plant at $280 million for the fiscal year while the current assessment is $300 million, Vermont Public Radio reported (http://bit.ly/1ddx7sQ).
The agreement is good for the town because the plant will stop selling power in December, halfway through the contract, officials said. Entergy announced in August of 2013 that it would shut down Vermont Yankee at the end of 2014.
"We negotiated a fantastic one-year contract for the town that really gives us some breathing space. But we all know what the future is," said Vernon Select Board chairwoman Patti O'Donnell.
Vernon has 2,100 residents and an annual budget of $2 million, half of which is covered by taxes from Entergy, she said.
"We have had resources for a lot of years that other areas in our area have not had. So we do have a large budget that needs to be cut," O'Donnell said.
The town is planning a public meeting on Jan. 20 to discuss budget cuts. The board will meet with Entergy again after town meeting to figure out a five- or ten-year tax agreement, O'Donnell said.

Al Jawad Group
Najwa is the leader and featured member of this group. She is a 35-year-old married mother of seven children, standing on the left in the picture. She owns a small business where she sells lingerie, perfume, and creams. Her husband is a retired military officer, and their combined revenue is not even enough to provide for three people, let alone for the four others. Her family is in an extremely dire situation, and Al Majmoua is most probably her last escape out of misery and poverty. In fact, she needs the Al Majmoua loan in order to purchase merchandise to enhance and expand her business, which might raise her revenue, and would allow her to provide a better life for her seven children.
Nisrine is a 36-year-old divorced mother of one child, who is still living under her protection and care. She owns a small international call center shop. She needs the Al Majmoua loan in order to expand and enhance her business by purchasing merchandise for her business, as well as installing perfuming machines in the shop.
Norma is a 25 year-old single lady. She owns a small hairdresing salon where she is in charge of the hairdressing section. She needs the Al Majmoua loan in order to purchase creams and shampoos for her saloon.
Additional Information
About Al Majmoua – Lebanese Association for DevelopmentThe Lebanese Association for Development – Al Majmoua is Lebanon's leading microfinance institution and the oldest Kiva partner in Lebanon. Al Majmoua's vision is to "be the leader in creating an inclusive financial system where all people in Lebanon have access to affordable services." Given Lebanon's diverse population, Al Majmoua lends to all nationalities, provided legal residency. The strong financial position achieved to date has allowed Al Majmoua to steadily lower its pricing over the years.
Based on the belief that non-financial services play a complementary role in improving the quality of life of the most vulnerable entrepreneurs, Al Majmoua has established a solid Business Development Services program for both borrowers and non-borrowers with a focus on women and youth.
This is a Group Loan
In a group loan, each member of the group receives an individual loan but is part of a larger group of individuals. The group is there to provide support to the members and to provide a system of peer pressure, but groups may or may not be formally bound by a group guarantee. In cases where there is a group guarantee, members of the group are responsible for paying back the loans of their fellow group members in the case of delinquency or default.
Kiva's Field Partners typically feature one borrower from a group. The loan description, sector, and other attributes for a group loan profile are determined by the featured borrower's loan. The other members of the group are not required to use their loans for the same purpose.
Loan tags help lenders find loans that match certain areas of interest. You can add up to 5 tags for this loan.

The Legacies of Spanish Texas
THE INDEPENDENCE OF MEXICO IN 1821 AND THE INCLUSION of Texas in that new nation did not spell the end of more than three centuries of Hispanic influence. Before joining the United States in 1846 as its twenty-eighth state, Texas experienced fifteen years under Mexican governance and another ten as an independent republic. 1 Given the state's past and its long, common border with Mexico, it is often difficult to separate Spanish and Mexican legacies, such as persistence of the Spanish language and Roman Catholicism. In those instances, it seems appropriate to blur distinctions. This final chapter assesses the lasting and important aspects of a Hispanic past, as well as the blending of Spaniards with indigenous peoples to produce the roots of Tejanos.
OVERALL, SPANISH INFLUENCES IN TEXAS APPEAR TO BE WELL out of proportion to the small number of Hispanics and Hispanicized settlers who were present in 1821. The most obvious, albeit superficial, legacy from the colonial period is Spanish names for counties, places, rivers, creeks, towns, and cities. Approximately one-sixth (42) of the 254 Texas counties have Hispanic names or Anglicized derivations such as Galveston and Uvalde. Hundreds of physiographic features like Llano Estacado, Guadalupe Mountains, or Padre Island perhaps serve as reminders of Spanish explorers and conquistadors who crossed parts of Texas well before the English settled the Atlantic Coast of North America. Every major river in Texas, with the exception of the Red, bears a Spanish name or an Anglicized derivation. 2 And there is the name of the state itself. Thanks to Indians in East Texas and the influence of a few Spanish officials who, for a change, insisted on a simple rather than complex name for the province, Tejas became Texas, not the New Kingdom of the Philippines. Surely most Texans are grateful for not being known as New Filipinos!

Mealtimes are memorable entertainment experiences for guests of all ages aboard the Disney Magic. When the ship relaunches, a helping of fun served with a full course of magic is on the menu. Elaborately themed restaurants with distinctly Disney touches combine with world-class cuisine to please the palate and satisfy all the senses.
Here are some highlights of the dining delights in store for guests aboard the Disney Magic:
Dining with an dash of animation magic
New restaurants and new technology are on the menu for the restaurants aboard Disney Magic.
Animators Palate, one of the most popular restaurants on the Disney ships, is updated with all-new, animation-adorned walls and larger high-definition flat-screens to provide the best views of the animation magic that takes place all around. New furnishings all around the interior of the restaurant, including custom-built Mickey Mouse chairs, provide a fun feast for the eyes, while the delectables and dishes provide a feast for the palate.
A heaping helping of entertainment is served up during the brand-new Drawn to Magic experience at Animators Palate. Throughout this deliciously fresh take on Disney Cruise Lines much beloved classic dinner celebration, the restaurants black and white blank canvas explodes into full color as favorite Disney and Disney-Pixar characters, such as Rapunzel from Tangled and Remy from Ratatouille, come to life right before guests eyes. The show culminates with the wait staff in a colorful, lively parade around the transformed restaurant.
From sketch to reality, Drawn to Magic is an innovative, memorable, and musical animation celebration being introduced on the Disney Magic.
On every Disney Magic cruise, guests will have an opportunity to experience the tremendously popular Animation Magic dinner show that celebrates the magic of Disney animation and allows families to create and participate in an innovative new way. First unveiled on the Disney Fantasy, Animation Magic invites guests to create their own hand-drawn characters that magically spring to life, become fully animated and join the show onscreen.
As guests are seated at their tables for dinner, they are invited to draw a character of their own using a simple template on their placemat. Then, just before dinner, house lights dim and a sprinkling of pixie dust illuminates the room.
On large monitors around the room, Sorcerer Mickey Mouse begins the show, inviting guests to enjoy a taste of animation as a montage of memorable food-themed moments from Disney and DisneyPixar films is shown, set to the tune Be Our Guest. After the number is complete, guests drawings are whisked away.
After dinner, Mickey returns for the exciting finale. With a musical crescendo, he works his magic and conjures the guests drawings now fully animated and brought to life into the onscreen action.
A parade starts as Mickey leads the guests drawings in a march across the screens around the dining room. The animation becomes more elaborate as the drawings step into scenes from beloved Disney movies, skipping and dancing side-by-side with characters such as Mickey Mouse, Jiminy Cricket, Cinderella and Snow White.
At the conclusion of the show, credits roll on screen showing each guests name listed as a guest animator. To commemorate the experience, guests drawings are returned to them with an added touch: a golden seal proclaiming them an Official Disney Animator.
More family dining, from elegant to casual
The vibrancy of Rio de Janeiro creates an energetic atmosphere in Cariocas, a new restaurant named after Donald Ducks parrot pal in The Three Caballeros, Jose Carioca. Festooned with lighted lanterns, the restaurant is designed to be fun by day, elegant by night, says Lanzisero.
During the day, buffet meals feature a festival theme before night falls and the atmosphere transforms into an after-hours scene of Rio de Janiero, with city-side windows softly illuminated and lanterns flickering overhead. A scenery scrim is drawn to conceal the buffet and kitchen areas for dinner service, providing a more elegant dining locale. Cariocas replaces Parrot Cay restaurant, currently on the Disney Magic.
Another new restaurant to the Disney Magic is Cabanas, a casual dining experience with food and beverage stations during daytime hours and a table-service restaurant during dinner. Drawing inspiration from Australian influences with uniquely Disney touches, Cabanas offers indoor and outdoor dining. The Australian setting of the Disney-Pixar animated classic Finding Nemo inspires the décor and guests can find hints of the films fishy and feathered friends throughout the restaurant. The beach-themed dining room, colorful surfboards, beach umbrellas and teak Adirondack chairs create a sunny down under setting for guests.
Cabanas (which replaces the current Topsider Buffet) also is expanding. Imagineers have added more indoor area to the popular restaurant and increased the total square-footage of air-conditioned space by nearly 3,400 square feet to more than 9,460 square feet. After dry dock, seating increases from 249 to 343 indoor seats and from 132 to 112 outdoor seats.
Palo specialty restaurant for adults
Disney Cruise Lines popular Palo restaurant receives a makeover with stylish wood fixtures, glass artwork panels, new stone floors, decorative lighting and hand-tufted carpet. Red and white striped poles reminiscent of those found throughout the canals in Venice are a design feature. A rich interior color palette inspired by Venetian artwork complements gourmet dishes that please guests palates.
While the look of Palo is enhanced, the world-renowned Northern Italian cuisine and elegant dining experience has not changed. Open to guests 18-and-above and available to book as much as 120 days in advance, Palo serves dinner and brunch.

Mozambique, officially the Republic of Mozambique (Portuguese: Moçambique or República de Moçambique, pronounced: [ʁɛˈpublikɐ di musɐ̃ˈbiki]), is a country in southeastern Africa bordered by the Indian Ocean to the east, Tanzania to the north, Malawi and Zambia to the northwest, Zimbabwe to the west and Swaziland and South Africa to the southwest. The capital city is Maputo, formerly known as Lourenço Marques.
Between the 1st and 5th centuries AD, Bantu-speaking peoples migrated from farther north and west. Swahili, and later also Arab, commercial ports existed along the coasts until the arrival of Europeans. The area was explored by Vasco da Gama in 1498 and colonized by Portugal in 1505. Mozambique became independent in 1975, and became the People's Republic of Mozambique shortly thereafter. It was the scene of an intense civil war lasting from 1977 to 1992.
Mozambique is endowed with rich and extensive natural resources. The country's economy is based largely on agriculture, but with industry, mainly food and beverages, chemical manufacturing, aluminium and petroleum production, is growing fast. The country's tourism sector is also growing. South Africa is Mozambique's main trading partner and source of foreign direct investment. Portugal, Spain, and Belgium are also among the country's most important partners. Since 2001 Mozambique is one of the world's top ten for annual average GDP growth. However, Mozambique still has one of the lowest GDP per capita, one of the worst human development index and one of the highest inequality in the world, as well as having the world's lowest life expectancy.

College football: What they're saying about the SEC's football culture
The Southeastern Conference's football culture, created by its regional history, Southern pride and die-hard fans, has become legendary.
Here's what some experts have said about the SEC culture and what makes it different than anything else in college football:
CBS college football analyst Tim Brando, who was born in Louisiana and has covered the SEC for decades:
"I think people in the heartland — and I think this is also true in the Big 12; I'm not gonna leave out Texas and Oklahoma and Oklahoma State and a lot of the schools in the heartland — I think a lot of the schools in the flyover states, in general terms, are less inclined to be about pro sports and more inclined to be identified by either where they went to school, or where they hoped to have gone to school when they were kids.
"I think they identify themselves as human beings by where they're from, or what the state school represents."
Phillip Fulmer, who played at Tennessee from 1968-71 and won two SEC titles and a national title as its head coach between 1992 and 2008:
"The stadiums have gotten bigger, and you've got more really, really qualities coaches in this league right now. Maybe more than ever. The television and the dollars are bigger than they've ever been. The SEC television contracts put three or four big games a week out there. It is probably bigger than it's ever been, but it's also more exposed than it's ever been."
Texas Tech coach Kliff Kingsbury, who spent the 2012 season as Texas A&M's offensive coordinator:
"I think at a place like Alabama — where there's not a professional team — that's religion to them. You watch the fans come out, and they're there all day long, rowdy and rocking. That's their passion. They're raised on it.
"It's fun to watch and it's great for the game."
Former SEC commissioner Roy Kramer, quoted in the 2012 book, "How the SEC Became Goliath," by Ray Glier:
"Football was part of the recovery of pride in the South one hundred years ago, ninety years ago, eighty years ago. They were building a cultural pride, and if you were from Alabama, you said, 'That's my state, that's my team.' There is something to that, I think."
ESPN college football analyst Robert Smith, who played running back for Ohio State and the Minnesota Vikings:
"It's an absolute obsessive level that goes even beyond what you see in the state of Texas. They live, breathe and eat football down there."
New York Times reporter Warren St. John, who followed Alabama's 1999 football team in an RV and described the experience and crazed fans he met in his 2004 bestseller, "Rammer Jammer Yellow Hammer." From the book's introduction:
"I grew up in Alabama — possibly the worst place on earth to acquire a healthy perspective on the importance of spectator sports.
"A recent poll by the Mobile Register found that 90 percent of the state's citizens describe themselves as college football fans. … To understand what an absolute minority nonfans are in Alabama, consider this: they are outnumbered there by atheists."
Clay Travis, a Tennessee-based writer and radio host who has authored two books on SEC football:
"I think what Southerners have done is put football in the middle of the culture of the South, which is family, cookouts, drinking — probably to excess oftentimes. Football is a part and parcel of the experience, but it's really just a small part.
"Ole Miss says, 'We may lose a game, but we've never lost a party.' A lot of these fan bases have not been historically successful, but you still show up because it's almost like a big family reunion. It's a party. There's nothing that compares like it. I've been all over the NFL, and it's laughable to compare NFL tailgating and atmosphere with what goes on in the SEC."

It should go without saying that smartphones make our lives easier in many ways. They help us find directions to our next destination, maintain communication with loved ones and dear friends, and even waste precious time playing games like Words with Friends and Angry Birds. We carry our phones with us everywhere we go — whether it be our living room, work space, or even the bathroom — so why shouldn't we venture with it into the kitchen? Cooking apps are the next step in the complete mobile takeover, offering step-by-step instructions detailing how to make a fine oven-fried chimichanga, curate a weekly meal plan, or even tell when your apple is perfectly ripe. The app market is loaded with both premium and freemium offerings available on iOS, Android, and Windows Phone. Even though some cater more to the executive chef at the local five-star restaurant, others will help those of you who are still learning to dice an onion or boil water.
Here are top picks for the best apps for cooking, regardless of your kitchen expertise. Also, check out our handpicked selection of the best food and drink apps, along with the best iPhone apps and best Android apps.
Big Oven
iOS | Android | Windows Phone
Big Oven touts more than 250,000 recipes, but it also works as a meal planner. You assign recipes for each day at the beginning of the week, dragging them around or deleting them as things come up, and the app supplies a grocery list detailing everything you need. Though the freemium version offers access to recipes and and review, you will have to subscribe ($20) to abolish the ads and access all of the app's features, including those for looking up nutrition facts and taking photos of hand-written recipes. However, there's always the two-week free trial if you remain hesitant.
Food Network in the Kitchen
This wouldn't be a comprehensive list of food apps without a proper Bobby Flay appearance. Food Network in the Kitchen brings all your favorite chefs from the network directly to your smartphone, so you no longer will have to sit through an episode of 30 Minute Meals to find out how to make baked chicken. There are thousands of recipes and photos, which are searchable by chef, course, food type, and other options. Once you start cooking, you can even use the unit converter to figure out volume or weight, or simply revel in the app's multiple timers for multi-dish meals.
Perfect Produce
If you notice you end up throwing away a good deal of produce because you either don't know how to store it or how to test its ripeness, Perfect Produce isn't a bad investment. The app is set up alphabetically, outlining a plethora of useful information about a smattering of common fruits or vegetables you might possess in your fridge. Said details include everything from nutrition facts and recipes, to storage information and the best method for selecting particular fruits in the store. Furthermore, you can look up which veggies or fruits contain desired nutrients and components vital for good health (fiber, vitamin C, etc.).
Paprika Recipe Manager
Paprika is the ultimate recipe hub for your smartphone or tablet. You can upload personal recipes or search the Web for specific recipes to clip and save within the app. It also allows you to easily look up necessary ingredients at the grocery store. Since it's 2014, you can even sync saved recipes between nearly any electronic device connected to the Internet, and the app additionally provides tools for planning meals for up to a month. You can also sort recipes into folders or export your meal plans and ingredients lists to your smartphone's respective calendar and reminder apps. Plus, it offers offline access.
Weber's On the Grill
Grilling may be the staple of summer, but it's hard to find a large variety of quality grilling recipes online. Weber's On the Grill makes it easy, supplying not only 300 different recipes for an entire grill-prepared meal — dessert and all —but the whole process for preparing the dish. You can add and delete items on your grocery list once you select a recipe, and then, when it's time to add fire to the equation, you can enter the thickness of the meat and the app will automatically adjust the grilling time and temperature accordingly. You can even watch short instructional videos featuring celebrity chef and author Jamie Purviance.
Fun fact: Auguste Escoffier was a famous French chef who worked at the renowned Savoy Grill in London in the late 1800s. Featuring multiple kitchen timers and measurement converters, the aptly-titled Escoffier is designed to teach you the master chef's basics, allowing you to learn the ins and outs of cooking from the beginning. The app provides tools to help you before you begin cooking, such as convenient equipment and ingredient guides, along with a comprehensive glossary defining pivotal cooking terms ensuring recipes never become a guessing game. However, the app features a few cumbersome pop-up ads.
Having people over for dinner can be extremely tricky if every guest has a different food allergy or is intolerant to different dishes. Assuming you don't want to opt for a different group of friends, Substitutions allows you choose from a list of allergies and presents suitable alternatives for dishes with the offending ingredient. The app presents options for vegans and gluten-free guests, along with welcome substitutions for specific ingredients. Moreover, you can find alternatives to foods you simply don't like or don't have on hand, or use the app's basic search function if you manage to find a magnifying glass for viewing the smaller-than-normal font.
While reading and following a written recipe is fine for some, others benefit more from visual learning. That said, a step-by-step video accompanies each recipe within Appetites, shot from the perspective of the chef. Though the online bloggers who don names like "Brokeass Gourmet" and "Lick My Spoon" provide the bulk of the tutorials in lieu of traditional TV chefs, the respective viewing angle always allows you to clearly view what the food should look like when chopped or cooked. The downside? The Webby Award Honoree only possesses a limited selection of video recipes unless you purchase the assorted, premium recipe packs.
All the Cooks
iOS | Android | Windows Phone
If social media doesn't already saturate every aspect of your life, All the Cooks is the app for you. The app creates a virtual place to exchange recipes with friends, family, and strangers. When you're done cooking, you can upload a recipe with a picture of the finished product and others can comment. The wealth of comments range from potential substitutions for food allergies, to side dishes that would pair well with the recipe, each of which depends on the dish. Recipes are also sorted into different categories and the app creates a profile for you so you can see what others have uploaded and liked.
Pepperplate claims it is the only recipe app for serious cooks, which is a pretty hefty statement to make. While it may not be the only recipe app a pro could use, it is a comprehensive one. Though you can pull recipes from any website as well as upload personal ones, they don't always import into the app seamlessly. You can also copy and paste text and photos. Once a recipe is added to the app, you can add or alter notes so you can remember to increase the number of ingredients in the recipe to accommodate more guests. Users can also move recipes into different categories, providing quick access in most situations.
EatingWell Healthy in a Hurry
A cheeseburger always looks better when you're tired or in a hurry, but you'll pay for it later. Fortunately, EatingWell houses only quick, nutritious meals. Each of the app's recipes is preloaded, so you don't need Internet access to view them, and features lots of nutrition facts. Moreover, the app has a unique search function that lets you look up the benefits of each dish, such as those aimed at promoting a healthy heart or reducing your waste line. The app also compiles a shopping list, your bookmarks, and sends a daily recipe to your smartphone in case you are having a hard time deciding what to make.
Epicurious Recipes & Shopping List
iOS | Android | Windows Phone
Epicurious has been heralded as a flagship cooking app since the early days of the App Store and Google Play. It presents more than 30,000 editorially tested and member-rated recipes within a newly-renovated interface. The app allows you to manage your shopping lists and recipes across platforms, and even perform voice-activated commands sepcifically designed for hands-free cooking. Though editors of Epicurious offer their own selection of recipes, the app also manages to present those from the likes of Gourmet magazine, Self, and more.

OK, so I needed some replacement freewheels, nothing fancy, but decent. So I did a quick Google search: 6 speed Shimanos for $9, 7 speed Shimanos for $10.
The source? That evil place, Walmart.com. Got them in two days, they did not come from Walmart, I'll have to check the box. Appears they are trying to compete with Amazon, hosting stuff for other sellers.
Price was significantly less than Niagara, and the service speaks for itself.
Also bought an 8 speed cassette, with in store pickup, no shipping.

Rated 4.7 out of 5 by 90 reviewers.
Rated 5 out of 5 by NinjaGirl1983 Stunning I was totally surprised as the bed frame is really well made! Easy to assemble as others have mention, all you need is a screwdriver and a bit of muscle to hold the pieces together during assembly. I first caught sight of it on HGTV Property Brothers and had to have it!! Beautiful and definitely a stepup from Ikea jigsaw puzzle furniture. May 15, 2016
Rated 5 out of 5 by gabriela great daybed Love it.Good quality.Its grey ..but not what you would expect. It looks very well with rest of my brown/black furnitures .Would recommend. April 9, 2016
Rated 5 out of 5 by MDallas I love this Daybed !!! I bought this Daybed almost a year ago. I'm so glad I did! I have gotten so many compliments. I also bought the tan burlap mattress cover that goes with it. It came un assembled but my husband no problems putting it together. It is sturdy and a twin size pillow top mattress fit perfectly. March 8, 2016
Rated 5 out of 5 by MissKate Kind of in love with it. I'd been thinking about buying this for a couple of years. I finally made the move and bought it. I live in a very small house and this is now my main couch. I was able to put this together by myself in about 10 minutes with just a rusty old screw driver. It's sturdy and looks great. I feel confident it will hold up over the long run. I put a 10-inch thick tempur-pedic style mattress on it (thank you Amazon) and bought one of the mattress covers available here at World Market. This is incredibly comfortable. It is large, and as wide as a twin bed yet it takes up less space than my old couch did. I am kind of in love with it. February 7, 2016
Rated 5 out of 5 by Sara35 Beautiful Daybed This is a beautiful piece of furniture, very sturdy and unique. I use it as a sofa with an 8 inch Memory Foam twin mattress and it fits perfectly and is very comfortable. Easy 15 minute assembly. Color is greyish/whitewashed brown. Would definitely recommend. February 6, 2016
Rated 5 out of 5 by OBXgirl22 Beautiful Love this!!!! It is a beautiful matte gray color. It is sturdy and beautiful and is perfect in every way. January 29, 2016
Rated 5 out of 5 by teamkimme Looks great First off a single mattress fits perfectly. We bought one with box spring built in so it sits a little high but very comfortable. We bought this to transition a toddler to regular bed. It was extremely simple to assemble. The hardest part was taking it out of the box and bringing inside. We bought a twin comforter and sheet set and fits perfectly. I would buy again if needed. January 20, 2016
Rated 5 out of 5 by mango13 Perfect for small room Beautiful piece, very easy to assemble. Color is as exactly as pictured. I was torn between a 10 inch and 12 inch mattress, decided to go with 10 inch and glad I did. The 10 inch memory foam mattress I purchased hits right at base of backboard allowing for approximately 4 inches between top of mattress and base of side arms. January 20, 2016

SYDNEY, Australia — Australia's competition to see how far someone can throw a tuna will be missing something next year: the fish.
Organizers of the Tunarama Festival held each January in Port Lincoln on the remote Eyre Peninsula are replacing the real thing with polyurethane replicas for the highlight event, the frozen tuna toss.
Each year, contestants in four categories hurl fish weighing up to 22 pounds as far as they can.
The fake fish have been sculpted by an artist to look just like the real thing.

"The dimensions are perfect," Merriwyne Hore, the acting manager of the 2008 festival, said. "We road tested it with one of our champions. He had a few throws, and he was really impressed. It felt good, very balanced."
Hore told the Australian Broadcasting Corp. that the switch was being made to avoid wasting perfectly good fish, among other reasons.
Hore said some people had objected to the change, but it was judged necessary on ecological and monetary grounds.
"Some people don't like it because it's not original, but it's time we got green, got realistic about this," she said.

"My fiancé and I loved these invitations! We were able to personalize the wording and picture which was perfect. Thanks WPD!"
"I ordered this invitation for two of my friends' engagement parties and it was so great. I customized the card with their names, and the proof came back exactly how I wanted it. The card was delivered on time, and the fitted rectangular envelopes didn't require any extra postage."
"I absolutely loved how these invitations came out. The black background really made all of the other colors pop. The example online really does not do it justice. We received several compliments on the invitations and the gold ink we used for the addresses on the black envelopes."
"I am more than satisfied with this product. It looks elegant and cute and the delivery was pretty quick. I would definitely recommend this!"
"Wedding Paper Divas have made everything so quick and easy. They took the guess work out of making our engagement party invitiations. The process is simple and the invitations turned out fantastic. Delivery to us here in Australia was quick and we could not have been happier with the quality of the paper and the printing."

In November 2007 these residents in Caldecote, the tiny hamlet
near Newnham at the most northern tip of Hertfordshire, formed an
organisation named 'Caldecote Church Friends'.
Its purpose is to raise funds for the maintenance and restoration
of their beautiful little mediaeval church. Large scale maintenance
work is carried out by a wonderful organisation, aptly known as
'The Friends of Friendless Churches', but the committee
of the new local group will help with the many smaller tasks.
The parish itself is under the care of the Rector of Ashwell,
and a service is held in the church annually, usually on the patronal
feast of St. Mary Magdalen.
Apart from religious services, the group aims to open the church
to the public for communal events such as concerts, art exhibitions
and so on.
A Fuchsia Festival held in 2006 was a huge success, and showed
widespread interest in this little hidden heritage gem – over
500 people came to visit.
There are only seven houses in Caldecote, so the group needs help!
Anyone wishing to become a member of the group can easily do so
by filling in an application
form (24K Word File) and paying a one-off joining fee. How much?
As much or as little as you like!
You are not obliged to do anything else apart from showing your
support in this way. You will be kept advised of future events and
important happenings.
If you want to donate money at any time, please send a cheque made
out to 'Caldecote Church Friends' to the Secretary.

With dummy payload. SpaceX got a big headstart on ORB re contract signing. Now its time to show what ORB can do. I'm holding long.
Sentiment: Hold
Seems there is only a 45% chance of launch on Wed due to weather.
Fingers crossed! We definitely need this one given the resources and time put in to its development.
Given Orbital's track record over the years and the fact that one of its own then-Vice Presidents (later to become NASA Administrator) Michael Griffin said that Orbital "is the goat of the space industry." I was there when he said that, I'm betting a 70% chance it will go in the drink and fail. Let's see here... Pegasus XL 75% fail rate on the first four..... the two climate satellites, 100% fail rate on two birds.....

Did you find the inks more difficult to work with or needed more cleaning than the other inks? Also, I'm using a Windows PC so is there a good RIP program for that (I think Harrington's is only Mac but I could be wrong).

ActiveSLIM is a clinically proven formula to fuel 3x more fat burning whenever you move. Its rapid fat burning ability makes every body movement work harder for you. Packed with 4 Active Thermo-Factors, it effectively transforms and shapes your body towards a slimmer silhouette.
When we restrict our diet, we may notice 25-30% of weight loss. Unfortunately, this is a result of water loss, muscle loss, and bone loss instead of the desirable FAT LOSS. This form of strict dieting slows metabolism and makes our body stores fat faster. Once regular diet resumes after extreme dieting, there is a high tendency of weight rebound.
When we exercise to support weight loss, our body starts burning off stored glucose and only minimal stored fat. Upon 20 minutes of exercising, our body starts to use stored fat as fuel and fat burning increases with longer exercise duration. Most of the time, we may not exercise long enough to burn off our stored fats.

Obama vows federal help for Irene victims
Sep 4, 2011, 10:57 p.m.
By Matt Spetalnick
PATERSON, New Jersey (Reuters) - President Barack Obama on Sunday urged Republicans not to play politics with federal disaster aid as he toured flood-stricken New Jersey and pledged to do everything possible to help states recover after Hurricane Irene.
With rain-swollen rivers receding in the Northeast after the region suffered its worst flooding in decades, Obama was greeted by cheering crowds of several thousand people lining the streets of the working-class city of Paterson, one of hardest-hit from the storm.
The Democratic president was joined in his first look at the storm damage by New Jersey Governor Chris Christie, a budget-cutting Republican who has bucked some of his party's fiscal hawks in Washington by calling for expedited federal aid to help his state's recovery.
Standing on a bridge over the rain-swollen Passaic River in central Paterson, Obama noted there had been a talk of a slowdown in aid and dismissed that, promising: "We are going to meet our federal obligations."
"The last thing that residents ... need is Washington politics getting in the way of making sure we're doing what we can," said Obama, who did not mention Republicans by name.
Earlier, Obama consoled homeowners at his first stop in a poor neighborhood in the town of Wayne, telling them the federal government would do everything possible to help them.
"I know it's a hard time right now," Obama told a group of residents clustered around him on the street. "You guys hang in there. We'll do everything we can to help you."
Irene cut a swath of destruction from North Carolina to Vermont and was blamed for at least 40 deaths. Total economic losses have been estimated at more than $10 billion.
New Jersey was especially hammered by flooding in the storm's wake last week. The floodwaters swept away homes, swamped roads and bridges and left hundreds of thousands without electricity.
Paterson now faces a massive cleanup after the Passaic River overflowed its banks in the center of the city of 150,000, dealing the latest blow to a one-time industrial powerhouse that has fallen on hard times.
Obama declared New Jersey a disaster area on Wednesday, making the state eligible for federal disaster aid.
He is expected to ask Congress for extra funds to help recover from Irene, but Washington's unrelenting budget battles -- and a deepening ideological divide between Republicans and Democrats over the role of government -- could complicate relief efforts.
"When disaster strikes, Americans suffer -- not Republicans, not Democrats, not independents -- and we come together," White House spokesman Jay Carney told reporters traveling with Obama.
Eric Cantor, the No. 2 Republican in the House of Representatives, said last week that any new disaster aid must be offset with spending cuts elsewhere to avoid adding to the budget deficit, projected to hit $1.3 trillion this year.
But Christie, a rising Republican star and blunt-talking fiscal conservative who has repeatedly denied any interest in seeking his party's 2012 presidential nomination, has called for immediate assistance for his state.

"Rottnest Island ~ Island of the Quokkas" Top 5 Page for this destination Rottnest Island by icyjo24
Rottnest Island Travel Guide: 239 reviews and 577 photos
Rottnest Island is located 18km off Fremantle, which is just a 25 minute ferry ride from Victoria Quay. The island is 11km long and just 4.5 km wide at some parts. The climate here is of a pleasant semi-arid Mediterranean type.
The island was named 'Rottenest' , which means rat's nest, by Dutch explorers in the 17th century as they have mistook the marsupials, now known as quokkas, as huge rats.The island has a history of being an Aboriginal convict settlement, a military installation and a salt-gathering place.
If you like natural coastal scenery, you can spend a day cycling around the island. The island is also surrounded by many fine beaches and bays, which is popular for snorkelling, scuba diving and swimming. Although its supposedly the Land of the Quokkas, I didn't manage to see any in the wild as I just saw one in the main settlement area.
- In a nutshell:Scenic Island, perfect for a great day trip.

Michael Mucci Illustration: Michael Mucci
The Airbus A380 represents the pinnacle of global aviation. It is especially the jewel in the crown in Singapore, where the government-owned Singapore Airlines was the launch customer. But when an A380 was coming in to land at Singapore's Changi International Airport on the morning of November 4, the emergency ground crews were filled with trepidation. This was a disaster waiting to happen. This A380 was the Nancy Bird Walton, the flagship of the Qantas fleet.
All the ingredients were in place for the 90th anniversary of Qantas to be marked by a catastrophe. I don't think many people, outside the experts, realise how close it came to a spectacular end to Qantas's brilliant run as the world's safest major airline.
Flight QF32, Singapore to Sydney, departing at 9.30am, was in distress just six minutes into the flight when the number two engine blew up. The plane was put into a circle pattern over open water for more than an hour as the five-member flight crew worked furiously on diagnostic checks to see what controls they had and what had been lost.
The hydraulics system was badly compromised. There was total loss of hydraulic fluid in the Green system, while the Yellow system remained intact. There was an open gash in the wing, with a fuel leak, and a second massive leak in a mid fuel tank. The left inner tank was also leaking. Part of the fuel distribution system had ceased to function, so fuel imbalances could not be fixed, or fuel jettisoned from the tail tank. It meant they would not be able to balance the aircraft properly for landing.
There was more: a hole in the upper wing surface; damage to leading edge slats on the wings; only partial use of speed brakes; shrapnel damage to some wing flaps. The pilot was unable to shut down the number one engine using the fire switch, thus no fire protection was available for that engine. The auto-brakes were compromised. The anti-skid mechanism was gone. One of the two engines that could provide reverse-thrust on landing was no longer operating.
The pilot, Richard Champion de Crespigny - remember that name - was going to have to battle the plane down with numerous elements inoperable that would have stabilised the aircraft. One tilt of the wings, one crumpling landing gear, one burning tyre, and sparks would shower on the tarmac. With an open and leaking fuel tank, sparks could create a fireball.
Four hundred and fifty-nine dead. The airline equivalent of the Titanic.
The crew decided to get the plane down rather than wait. They were concerned by the plane's worsening lateral imbalance. With so many pieces missing, the captain would need almost every metre of the runway, and fuel would be leaking throughout. The plane still had 80 tonnes of fuel. It was overweight. It would also have to make a high-speed landing. Every emergency crew at Changi was being positioned to lay down fire-retarding foam.
At the moment of crisis, the largest, most complex plane ever created was dependent on a pilot to get it down intact. By the time Captain de Crespigny brought the plane to a halt, he had just 120 metres of tarmac to spare. A reconstruction of events would make a compelling documentary. Several important and perhaps unappreciated elements emerge from this story:
- This was not a problem of Qantas's making. It was a new jet, with new engines, all tests made and all systems checked. This problem was created in the Rolls-Royce factory in Derby where the Trent 900 engine was manufactured. Vested interests have conflated this incident into a wider industrial argument about the standards of Qantas maintenance. The two issues have nothing to do with each other.
- Disaster was avoided by the one thing Qantas did control - the training and quality of the flight crew. They were outstanding. Qantas maintains world-best-practice in training.
- While Qantas has grounded its A380s, Singapore Airlines, which flies the same aircraft with the same engines, temporarily grounded three A380s to replace engines, but kept eight of its 11 A380s in the air. Singapore Airlines enjoys a reputation as one of the world's best airlines.
- This abundance of caution by Qantas would be partly caused by an unhappy spate of in-flight mechanical incidents requiring aircraft to turn back. All airlines suffer grounded flights, and sometimes these come in clusters. On Friday, a Virgin Blue flight made an emergency landing in Melbourne. But the Australian media is on a constant drip-feed of negative information about safety at Qantas as part of a union campaign against maintenance being outsourced overseas.
- The most detailed account of the QF32 incident appeared anonymously on the internet before any news stories or detailed statements from Qantas. It turned out to be accurate, more evidence that the internet is making the world more transparent even amid all the disinformation that also pours through cyberspace.
- The Airbus A380 is a commercial aviation engineering project of unprecedented ambition. In a system so large and complex the number of things that can go wrong is also large. Perhaps the A380, with its vast bulk, is operating closer to the limits of technology than we first understood.
I've never been on an A380 but I won't blink when the time comes. I look forward to it. Every time we step into a motor vehicle, or ride a bicycle into traffic, we have already done a risk/reward assessment. It's no different with planes, except that the odds are still better in the air.
