York Heat Pump Reviews | HVAC Consumer Ratings
York Heat Pump Reviews – York offers heat pumps with efficiency ranges from 13 SEER 7.7 HSPF to 18 SEER 9.4 HSPF. Ask many questions if you are considering buying a York heat pump or any other York product for that matter. Some features of York heat pumps are:
- heat pump condensers can come in custom colors including various college sports teams logos
- two-stage compressors in select York heat pumps
- Low RPM ECM condenser fan motor to help reduce airflow noise
- Capacity ranges from 1.5 tons to 5 tons making York heat pumps ideal for residential and light commercial use'
- can be used with gas furnaces when the dual fuel option is added
- Selected models use R-410A refrigerant
York Heat Pump Reviews – Various York Models
York has a top of the line heat pump they call the Affinity™ which has a two-stage compressor for two-stage operation. Other manufacturers are slowly changing their line of premium equipment over to modulating compressors where the system will modulate from 20 percent to 100 percent based on demand. York has not made it there yet but will likely soon follow the competition. I have seen York equipment out in the field and I have no reason to question the quality of the equipment. It works fine and is as good as the next manufacturer.
Always do your homework and ask a lot of questions. Buying a new air conditioner or heat pump is a major purchase and it is especially important that the system be installed properly so choose a good HVAC contractor to do the installation. Preferably a contractor that is recommended by the manufacturer.
York Heat Pump Reviews Conclusion
One word of note about York heat pumps and other products – They do not list much technical information about features for their heat pumps. I have always known York to offer quality products. Ask a lot of questions and encourage them to provide you with specific information so that you can make an informed decision about buying from them.
For more information on York and their latest models and efficiency ratings please see the York website.

Welcome to SparkPeople!
Are you competitive by nature? One of my daily goals is to hit 100 SparkPoints. When I do that, I've not only read articles, I've interacted with other members by reading and commenting on their blogs and writing my own blog. 100 points gets me here and gets me active each and every day.
When I started, I made the commitment to workout daily and write a blog about it. On days when I don't feel like doing it, I think about the blog I need to write and I certainly do NOT want to write that I was lazy and did not work out.
Maintain your goals on your SparkPage (that's what all the goal-setting gurus write about) and make the goals public on your page. Write about it on your blog every day.
Weight loss = calorie maintenance, cardio, and strength. Calorie maintenance is every day, cardio is at least five days per week, and strength is 3 to 4 days per week. I believe you need all three for a successful weight loss and fitness program.
Above all, be consistent. Doing something toward you goal every day will pay big rewards over the next few months. You can do this!

Hi Jackie and welcome to Spark People where you will find lots of information and tons of support and encouragement from all our members. You will find that we also have fun along the way. Drink your 8-8oz glasses of water a day (If you only drink one now, add to as you are able until you are drinking your 8 cups or more a day), watch your portion control (measure everything in the beginning...guaranteed it will get easier) and walk, dance or do any exercise you enjoy (start with 10 minutes a day or several times a day and add to it as you are able or have time). Use your fitness and nutrition tracker daily (guaranteed to work if you use them consistently and honestly). Pick one thing to change...one thing at a time. Don't try to change to many things at once as that can be very overwhelming. Just try to take one step, one minute, one hour, one day, one week at a time. They honestly will all add up to the bigger numbers. These tips will definitely help in lowering your numbers and increasing your ability to enjoy life. Don't expect miracles right away...this is a lifestyle change not a diet. You will be much healthier in the long run. Post any concerns, comments or questions you may have and someone will respond quickly.
Start each day with a positive thought just for that day. Reading and reflecting on an inspirational thought or message before you start your day can put you in a positive frame of mind.
Your thoughts determine whether you have a good day or a bad day. Fill your mind with positive ideas, suggestions, and thoughts. You will find it will change your attitude and changing your attitude can change your life.
Sometimes just reading an inspirational quote or a short paragraph helps one see the positive in a situation. Sometimes as your day progresses you just need to take a break...Take a mental break and read or think about a message of inspiration.
Never underestimate your power to change and improve! You are a good person, with wonderful qualities, and you can reach your goals!
If I can be of any help to you, please let me know with a spark mail or a comment on my page. I am here for you.
God bless you on your journey to a healthier you.

Derby recreation center closedApril 02,2013DERBY An indoor community recreation center in northern Vermont has closed due to financial problems.
Community National Bank has taken over Indoor Recreation of Orleans known as IROC in Derby on Sunday after the facility failed to pay its mortgage for months.
The chairman of the board and executive director said he hopes that the facility can be purchased and continue serving the entire community.
The center has a pool, skating rink, gym and offered fitness and recreation programs, as well as basketball, volleyball and soccer leagues.
The Caledonia Record reported that IROCs board of directors could not raise enough money to secure a low-interest loan to pay off about $1 million in debt. The facility also needed $150,000 in maintenance.MORE IN Vermont NewsA federal agency says a wireless Internet system funded by taxpayers is operating as it should,...

Re: New toy 2012 Mercedes E63 AMG Wagon
Re: New toy 2012 Mercedes E63 AMG Wagon
A lot of people say that about the old na 6.2 merc motor, I guess it was a beast, to get that kind of power with no turbos or blower is amazing. Anyhow, I'm real glad this did not become a shoot out arguement about which car is better because the real truth is one car might be better for one person and the other car for another person. I do see a real lot similiarities in both cars, the door lock system is very similiar, the luggage cover device in both wagons is nearly identical, although a little bigger in the Benz. It's obvious that both companies had engineer meetings about what the competition was doing and got ideas from each other. Materials are definately nicer in the Benz, but you pay for it. Myself I like the steering feel better in the Benz, to me my caddy wagon I felt I could not feel the road as good. In comp mode, I think the caddy might handle a little bit better, those magnetic shocks are truely amazing and the ride is better on the caddy for sure. The benz has even lower profile tires and you are riding on hard rubber airbags in the rear and they do tend to be a little more bouncy than the caddy which seems to dampen the bumps better. On smooth roads the benz rides like a dream and at high speeds in a straight line I'd say is smoother than the caddy and maybe a little quieter, although the caddy is very quiet to start with but the benz is that much quieter. The biggest thing I do like with the benz over the caddy is the increased interior room especially around the driver, the underseat storage compartments are very cool. I do like the powertrain better in the benz too, but that's just my preference. Others may like the caddy blower better.
True story - i recently (as in 3 mths ago) I bought a 2013 S550 twin turbo before buying my V. Very quick car. Loved the S550 but the V provides more bang per buck!

Re: New toy 2012 Mercedes E63 AMG Wagon
Heres a whole bunch of pics, just got the title today for the car. This dealer was great, really good to deal with, they cut me a very fair deal and they were very knowlegable about the Benz, the salesman I was working with drives a S class. http://www.skymotorcars.com/web/used...vania/1357509/ The above poster who claimed to have a S class, you must have lost a ton of money selling a new 2013 if that's true. My E class stickered for over 106K and I got the car lots less than that. I'm still really liking the car, been nearly 2,000 miles in around 2 weeks. Only complaint is around R.I the roads are very bad and this car does not like the rough roads at all, very tight suspension even in comfort mode and the 19 inch tires are very low profile and very stiff. The Caddy did ride a lot better, there are too many good things I like about this Benz though that makes it worthwhile for me having it over the Caddy though, mainly all the extra leg room, the higher rear hatch area for a lot of extra storage space, the powertrain, and oh, the sound of this motor, sounds completely different than the V, but I love the sound when she rev's, guess I woulda got that with a Corsa on the Caddy, but this cars got a AMG exhaust and nothing needed to be changed or altered

Fortunately, I didn't lose tons of money. It's all about who you know. Sticker was $128k. I'm trying to post a couple pictures on here of it but says dimensions are too high..
Not tech savy. Loved this car but wasn't exactly what I envisioned.
This is a pic of night I brought 'her' home.
Re: New toy 2012 Mercedes E63 AMG Wagon
Bridgett, what did you not like about the car? Benz's are known for being fairly firm, the seats are firm, the ride is firm, same as my VW Jetta, it must be a german thing I guess. The Caddy was a lot more Cushy, the seats were softer, the ride was softer except in comp mode. This won't be as much of a issue once I get to Florida as the roads there are smooth, but up north here you really feel all those bumps and ruts. A tune on my benz is tempting, I would like a little firmer shifts and the extra 100 hp or so would be nice too. I'm looking forward to getting this car to the quarter mile, should be low 12's right now. I just got a OBD II bluetooth reader that works off the torque app and need to check throttle position opening on my car because I do have hand controls and they may be preventing full throttle, I think I got em right, but gotta check for it. I'll see what throttle position opening is with the hand controls and then remove them and press the gas all the way down and make sure it's the same percentage. You really can't go by percentage alone as most cars will never say 100 percent.
I like those exhaust tips better on your S than my E, I may even change them out on my AMG E to tips like those, it would look a lot cleaner from the back of the car. I'm still kinda surprised I'm driving a German car at this point, I've always been a American Muscle type of guy, but the fact is this car just much better meets my needs than anything else I could be driving. Taking my Tennis chair in and out of the back last night was a snap, in the V wagon, it was tight fit and I could not even get my Handcycle in the back of the Vagon as the roofline was not high enough. The extra 150 mile range on a tank of gas on this car really helps out too.
I agree, the roominess is fairly bigger in the Benz than the V. I too, love the e class, as the s class was a bit more money but as you listed, lots of 'extras' as in smooth ride, seats, etc. But having owned many sports cars, that aren't daily drivers (my Vette sat in the garage for a whole year only 1000 miles driven), In hindsight my preference is more towards the 'sports car' look and feel, rather than a speeding 6000lb boat. And something that is rare, and unique. having purchased the last 2nd gen of the V, theres high hopes to keep this car as a collector. The V gives you IMO everything in a race car, of course less room, than an e or s class. But for me, the suit fits. Good luck on your e class 'super car ' endeavors.

It seems Mother Nature has her own political platform, and her vote this election goes to - neither party!
That's right. The final arbiter of our sunny skies or cloudy conditions has spoken on convention season and apparently has no favorite between the R's and D's.
Hurricane Isaac shortened Tampa's Republican National Convention and now a lingering set of storms has crashed President Obama's Charlotte crescendo. Wednesday, the Democratic National Convention decided to move Obama's speech from the massive, 73,000-seat Bank of America stadium to the covered and cozier 20,000-seat confines of the Time Warner Cable Arena.
Seems like a reasonable move, right? There's a 30 percent chance of storms, and one flash of lighting could force evacuations from the football field.
But wait a minuteconspiracy theorists abound! They, and we're talking mostly of Republicans here, with a large grin, wink and nod imply - rather shout - that the move has nothing to do with the weather. They insist Team Obama was worried about filling all those seats. They also know the media might choose to focus on an empty row in section 430 rather than the President's policy lines on Medicare.
Can't you see the headline on Drudge?
Either way, the decision was made and that meant the most entertaining back and forth we've seen inwell, just daysbut at least it was better than the spat over who built what and if who couldn't instantly answer the 'are we better off now' question. True, those are real issues but the ensuing battles over how they've been handled, frankly, is mostly white noise.
So too, is this. But at conventions, where the 24-hour spin cycle turns at such a furious pace, sometimes a discussion over cloak and dagger forecasting decisions is just the political levity we need.
The laughs come easy after watching this back and forth between Obama's Deputy Campaign Manager Stephanie Cutter & Romney surrogate, John Sununu. Here's what they told me immediately after the decision was made:
Of course, the end result means about 50,000 fewer people get to see the POTUS in person. The consolation prize: a conference call for those scorned ticket holders with the man himself.
Unless of course, Mother Nature decides she's not done just yet and knocks out the phone lines next.

The Ultimate Arkansas Bucket List: 80 Things Every Arkansan Should Do at Least Once
There are certain things every Arkansan should do at least once. Consider this an Arkansas bucket list, or at least it's a start.
Discover Arkansas: Find Yourself at Home in The Natural State
There is a place for everyone in Arkansas, a 179-year-old state with a history and culture as colorful and diverse as its physical landscape. The state is divided into geographical regions, each with its fair share of excitement, beauty and history.
Little Rock's Role as Central Arkansas' Hub More Exciting Than Ever
At the heart of Arkansas you'll find Little Rock. The capital city's downtown area thrives with restaurants, art galleries, museums, boutiques, bars, hotels and high-rise condos. State government, banking and financial centers and statewide media are located here, most within walking distance of the bustling River Market District.
Head Forth Through North Central Arkansas' Rustic Tranquility
The North Central Arkansas highlands and its mountain valley towns are a world of their own. It's a popular region for retirees and vacation-home owners, thanks to the tranquility of the area, and a place Arkansans converge on for float trips, cavern exploring, festivals, lake weekends and world-class fishing.

Learn more about Cleveland Clinic's top-ranked urology program in the nation
Cleveland Clinic's Andrology Laboratory and Reproductive Tissue Bank has provided therapeutic sperm banking services since 1980 – longer than any other facility in Ohio. The laboratory staff is trained in the latest, most effective freezing, storage and recovery techniques, and works under the direction of a sperm cryopreservation specialist. The highest standards are used in accurately labeling and identifying specimens. Cleveland Clinic's laboratory is CLIA – certified and is also accredited by the American Society for Reproductive Medicine and the College of American Pathologists. Our sperm banking facilities are inspected by the FDA and in compliance with FDA regulations.
Additionally, home sperm banking is available from Cleveland Clinic.
Download Cleveland Clinic's Sperm Banking Treatment Guide
Sperm banking is used when a man may want to have children in the future, but current circumstances prevent the certainty that they'll be able to conserve through traditional methods. This can be because of dangerous military deployment overseas, cancer or other disease treatments which cause infertility, and many other situations.
If you want to have children, when undergoing major procedures, it is a good idea to ask your doctor about any potential negative complications that could lead to infertility.
Sperm banking is a muti-stage process to ensure quality control from specimen collection to long term storage.
At your first visit, you will be asked to complete a questionnaire about your diagnosis and planned treatment and a contract and other legal forms related to sperm banking. You will be informed by the technologist making the appointment of any documents or records you need to bring in order to complete these forms.
An appointment is required for all visits. We generally can schedule one within 24 to 48 hours. After your first visit, weekend times are available for subsequent banking. At the time you make an appointment, we will request the following information:
Semen specimens are collected on-site at Cleveland Clinic's Andrology Laboratory in a private collection room. We recommend collecting the sample at the laboratory, because the sample's freshness affects fertility. Within minutes after ejaculation, the number of living sperm cells and their activity begin to drop off rapidly. You will be given a sterile collection cup for your specimen. Manual stimulation to orgasm, either by yourself, or with your wife or significant other, is the only recommended method. Using oral sex or intercourse to ejaculate could contaminate the semen with bacteria.
Every specimen is carefully labeled and coded to ensure accurate identification and confidentiality. Cleveland Clinic's Andrology Laboratory and Sperm Bank has a system of checks to ensure that specimens are properly identified at the time of storage, during storage and at the time of release. Each specimen is marked with your name, patient identification number, an internal control number and the date. Each donor's complete record is kept in the Andrology Laboratory. As an additional safety measure, your photograph or driver's license photocopy is taken at your first visit and becomes part of your permanent file for identification purposes.
A small part of the sample is drawn off for testing. The rest of the specimen is divided into small amounts and placed with a cryopreservative (a chemical that helps protect sperm during the freezing process) in containers called cryo vials. The freezing process begins right away, with the cryo vials being placed in a freezer for 8 minutes at a temperature below freezing. This step avoids killing sperm from a too-rapid drop in temperature. Specimens are then put into extremely cold liquid nitrogen vapor for two hours. Finally, they are lowered into a storage tank containing liquid nitrogen for permanent storage.
Semen may be stored indefinitely at the final temperature of -196° C. A man may store his sperm with Cleveland Clinic's Andrology Laboratory and Sperm Bank for an open-ended period of years, with an annual storage fee.
Every time you store a semen sample, a small portion is separated out before freezing for testing by a specially trained laboratory technologist. A complete, computerized semen analysis is performed. This analysis will reveal:
Between 24 and 48 hours after the samples are frozen, one post-thaw vial is thawed and the specimen is analyzed to measure the percentage of sperm that recover from freezing. The better the semen quality in general, and the higher the recovery rate after thawing, the fewer specimens that need to be stored. Based on the results of these tests, the laboratory director can recommend the optimal number one should consider freezing in order to have the best chance of successful fertility treatment in the future. You also may receive feedback on whether artificial insemination or in vitro fertilization would be your most viable treatment option.
If semen quality is high enough to permit artificial insemination as your eventual choice of fertility treatment, the chance of a successful pregnancy will increase with the number of samples you bank. More samples allow more attempts at insemination. If the treatment will be in vitro fertilization, one sample may be enough, but it is still a good idea to store several samples. For each pregnancy that you desire, you should bank between three and six specimens, depending on their semen quality.
Whenever a man banks sperm, we advise him to obtain a court order that would authorize a spouse or family member to withdraw any samples remaining in storage in our sperm bank after his death. Some deceased men's wives or fiancées have wanted to use stored sperm to create offspring with fertility treatment. Parents have sometimes wished to create a grandchild with stored sperm, using a friend or a paid surrogate mother to carry the pregnancy. You may wish to have your samples destroyed in the event of your death, or you may wish to designate a specific person in the amendment to semen collection & storage agreement, giving the designated individual a legal right to make decisions about your samples in that situation. We will only release your samples to another sperm bank. Any further use of them would then be under the control of the person you had legally appointed.
When you are ready to use stored sperm for infertility treatment, you must notify our laboratory at least four weeks in advance. You or your legally appointed executor must also complete a release form. Specimens can be shipped to any physician or laboratory that can store them in liquid nitrogen until thawing is required. Cleveland Clinic will arrange shipping, but you are responsible for a withdrawal fee for each sample, as well as any shipping costs.
Samples of semen do not deteriorate even over many years of deep freezing. Banking sperm before cancer treatment may allow a teenager or young adult to become a father years later, when he is ready to start a family. For a man who is about to have a vasectomy, therapeutic sperm banking provides an option to father a child if his life circumstances change.
The option to bank sperm should be discussed as early as possible after a diagnosis of cancer, because it is best to collect semen before treatment begins. Usually, it is considered safe to collect sperm samples during the first week of chemotherapy or radiation treatments. Although chemotherapy and radiation can damage the genetic material in developing sperm, the mature sperm found in a man's semen are resistant to damage.
Fortunately, storing semen samples does not have to delay the start of medical treatment. It is best to collect a specimen after 48 hours of abstinence from sexual activity. Although sperm constantly are being produced in the testes, it takes some time to replenish the sperm level after each ejaculation. To allow recovery of maximum semen volume, the second sample should be collected after another 48 hours of abstinence. If scheduling of a medical treatment does not allow that much time, waiting 24 hours between collections is usually enough. Men are advised to store several samples, but preserving even one may be worthwhile.
Semen quality is measured in several ways: by the sperm count (the number of sperm cells present in one milliliter of seminal fluid), the sperm motility (the activity of the sperm cells), and the morphology (the percentage of the sperm cells that have a normal shape). Semen quality can be damaged temporarily or permanently. Men who recently have been diagnosed with cancer often have poorer semen quality than usual. Some of the problem may be related to the illness itself and some to recent medical procedures, such as biopsies or surgeries that involve general anesthesia. A high fever or recent exposure to toxic chemicals may affect semen quality, as can chemotherapy for cancer or radiation therapy aimed near the testes. A man's age has only minor influence on semen quality, but being a heavy smoker or abusing alcohol sometimes can interfere.
Semen quality also varies with each ejaculated specimen. If you have poor semen quality, the laboratory director will discuss the issue with you before your specimens are stored permanently.
With modern infertility treatments, it makes sense to bank sperm even if you have a low sperm count or motility. New techniques of in vitro fertilization often can achieve pregnancy by injecting just one live sperm cell into an egg. The embryos that develop can be transferred into the woman's uterus. Men with better semen quality may be able to use their samples to create a pregnancy by simple insemination of their partner, a much less expensive and involved procedure than going through in vitro fertilization.

Austrian firm Noctua has earned an impressive reputation in just a few years for its designs that offer excellent cooling-to-noise ratios. More recently, the firm translated its technical prowess into an enormous cooler that should, by way of sheer size, be able to outperform most competitors' devices. Roughly 50% bigger than the average "big air" competitor, the NH-D14's $90 Web price is also around twice as expensive.
A great deal of installation flexibility adds some value to that high price, with support for single or dual fans and a full range of LGA 1156, LGA 1366, and LGA 775, plus AM2, AM2+, and AM3 processors. Noctua also adds two fan resistor wires for manual speed reduction.
An ultra-fine machined finish holds a thin film of thermal compound well, without being prone to the distortion that normally accompanies the polishing process. The NH-D14 appears to have the flattest mating surface of today's competitors.
Noctua claims many innovations in fan design, but perhaps the most innovative feature of the NH-D14 is its multi-fit LGA support plate. Peeling the center portion of its rubber pad allows the plate to fit perfectly on LGA-1156 motherboards, with full mounting pressure against the motherboard's integrated support plate relieving pressure from the circuit board.
Two curved brackets adapt LGA sockets from a four-screw to a two-screw mounting. These brackets, along with associated spacers, screws, and nuts, must be installed before the motherboard is placed inside most cases. Installing the sink inside or outside the case is as easy as unclipping the center fan to gain access to those two screws.

1mi1ez , 27 January 2010 15:05Is the Titan Fenrir unavailable in the US, or is it just ignored...
0jimishtar , 27 January 2010 20:50i have the mugen 2 coolin my q9400 @ 3,2 GHz at auto voltage. temps are ~40 idle, ~62 load, but watch out - its PASSIVE, honey ! no fans on it, its sheer size is taking all the heat away, although the case is HAF 932.
0redkachina , 28 January 2010 03:20Sunbeam core contact freezer includes 1156 bracket? I've been trying to find those adapter for some time-even tried emailing Sunbeam's tech support.. and now it showed up in Tom's.. anyone have any links of online retailers selling em'??
1Silvune , 28 January 2010 03:24Very useful article.
0frankgl , 28 January 2010 16:04I use a Cooler Master Hyper TX3, which keeps my CoreI5 750 at 29-32 degrees C. It is not overclocked, but it certainly leaves a lot of room with temps that low.
0brianthesnail , 28 January 2010 17:42great review...i have the freezer 7 pro(lga775) cooling my pentium D 915( oc to 3.2ghz) and it does a sterling job keeping the cpu,s idle temp at just 29°C...rising to 47°C(max)at full load..
i was looking at the corsair H50 however why fix it when its not broken....
that said i would choose the Scythe Mugen-2 if i had to replace the freezer 7 pro.....
good article !
0Anonymous , 29 January 2010 00:15Since I hear nothing but good things about the Titan Fenrir I am a little disappointed to not see it in this test...
0Anonymous , 31 January 2010 11:47why dont they have the prolimatech mega shadow in there?
i5 750 @ 3.6ghz @ 26 degrees in my pc best cooler available imo for 1156
1abhi_jollyguy , 1 February 2010 19:23Well, It's a very nice review. As we all knows that Noctua NH-D14 beats Prolimatech Megahalem by near about 2-4 degree C so may be that is why they have not included Megahalem in this test but overall a very nice review and from this review I have decided to buy Scythe Mugen 2 Revision B.
0thelivingflesh , 17 February 2010 03:31the freezer 7 looks neat with the white fan specially if you have the accellero xxx edition of inno3d graphic cards!
0bateman82 , 11 May 2010 01:15I have bought this one and are getting it tomorrow. Will be interesting to see the temp after installing Scythe mugen because now I have a some piece of shit to cooler and fan that keeps my 2,8 ghz processor at a 80 temp when full process and around 60~ in idle.. Plus it sounds like an airplane when the fan is on So this will be interesting and appreciated with a new cooler. Nice review!
0olivierhacking , 26 October 2010 00:06im not sure if I should get the hyper 212 plus or scythe mugen 2 rev b. the scythe costs me 50 euro and the hyper 212 plus just 30 euro. Is the scythe worth the almost double price? I am planning to overclock my i7 860 to 3.8ghz. And I am fine with cpu temperatures which are not above 70 C
0Anonymous , 16 January 2011 13:53great review, thanks. which PWM fan did you use to replace the thermalright one?
0niko935 , 29 July 2011 18:58noctua is one best cooler

Always wash hands, preparation surfaces and utensils in hot, soapy water before and after contact with raw chicken. Dry hands and surfaces with a clean towel or paper towels. Take special care in washing worn cutting boards as there may be hard-to-clean grooves or cracks that can collect bacteria.
Serve with smart sides, such as your favorite hot steamed vegetable and cooked brown rice.
Mix and match recipe using the chicken pieces you have on hand or what is on sale. Use all breasts, all thighs or a combination of both. Or, use boneless skinless chicken breasts, reducing the baking time if necessary. Each breast or thigh is one serving.

This is my go to recipe.. Being single, It's a quick easy meal. I do not use soup mix, but mix in dehydrated onion. I also cut the chicken breasts into bite size pieces.. When cooking, the sauce gets infused into the chicken better and it's easier to portion for lunches for the next couple days. AWESOME!
Tried this tonight and it was wonderful! The whole family loved it...even my little ones.

I have seen some awful things in my life, but the worst of them doesn't come close to seeing the way that women are treated in this country. Dogs are treated with more respect in Afghanistan than most of the women I've seen.
Kabul is a bit of an exception. I know many professional, educated Afghan women here, who move about freely. But woe to those women and girls in the rural provinces of this country.
Today I got a sneak peek at a UN report about violence against women—and it looks like Reuters did too—that has yet to be published.
The findings are sickening, and go way beyond Burkas.
There isn't a law against rape in this country, only one for having sex outside of marriage, a crime known as zina. This means that many rape victims are actually punished for being raped. Zina is punishable by death for both parties, but it is more common that the victim be forced to marry her rapist. Also, the victim's family may demand that the perpetrator's family hand over one or more girls as compensation, further widening the circle of victimization.
According to the report, rape is very common and widespread. Cases of fathers raping daughters or powerful men raping young girls happen every day in this country.
The report says that these atrocities stem from cultural norms and misinterpretations of Islam.
This is only a small part of the horrors mentioned in this report, which touches on how women are shut out of public life and threatened with death or killed if they step out of line. If I have time tonight I'll type up the relevant portions and post them, but the full report should be online in a few days.
Sadly, I fear that the US-led coalition does and can do little to alleviate the repression of women in Afghanistan. Sure, there are lots of seminars on woman's issues, roundtable discussion and NGO's that do tremendous work to try and remedy or bring these problems to light.
But in all the men-only shuras and meetings I've attended , no one has ever brought up these fundamental violations of human rights. As foreigners, most Americans (particularly the military,) don't want to be seen as imposing our cultural value system on Afghans. If we do so, we will lose popular opinion and thus the war.
As occupiers, the coalition is in a bind.
They watch as women are raped, beaten and treated to innumerable horrors, yet frequently do or say nothing because doing so would irreparably harm the military and nation-building mission here. They give money to start things like the Ministry of Women's Affairs, yet that ministry has zero power and nobody here takes it seriously.
So perhaps I have mislabeled this post. Rape isn't Afghanistan's problem. It is our own.

It's difficult to comprehend the scope of the current power-outs affecting a sizeable portion of the Washington D.C. area, but recent space-based photographs provided by NASA are offering a startling glimpse into the scale of the outages.
These before-and-after images were taken by NASA's Suomi National Polar-orbiting Partnership satellite, showing the geographic distribution of the power outages in Washington and Baltimore. The outages are a result of a freakish, fast-moving storm that swept through the area on Friday, June 29th. NASA offers some insights into the storm and its aftermath:
Known as a "derecho," the storm combined intense lightning and rain with hurricane-force winds that were upwards of 60 miles per hour (~96.5 kilometers per hour). It killed 22 people and caused some 4.3 million households to lose power for days.
According to the National Weather Service, the gigantic windstorms of a derecho are as powerful as tornados, but the winds don't twist, instead driving in a straight line. To be classified as a derecho, the swath of wind damage must extend more than 240 miles and the storms are powered by hot, humid weather.
The Washington Post is reporting that more than 155,000 customers, or 8.2% of the region, still had no electricity as of 9:30 p.m. on Tuesday night. It's expected that most of the power will return by the end of the week.

More Than A Thousand new song
I really really hoped the front page just cut off the "s".
Their last album was generic as fuck, but highly enjoyable..
Who's fucking idea was it to overproduce the cleans and add a billion unnecessary breakdowns? They ruined everything good about this band.
Digging: First Fragment - Dasein
That was HORRIBLE. Those lyrics were excruciatingly painful to listen to.
Their lyrics were always bad, but their last album was a lot of fun for a genericore album, but WTF happened to the cleans on this
Jesus christ my ears
They used to be good.
vol. I was so awesome, they're getting more generic and bland with each record.
still love these guys anyway, they're fun
It's pretty much the same stuff than their first album but tuned lower lol. It's okay.
This is awful. And I'm from Portugal.
And they treat these guys like they're the kings of the metal scene around here. Pfff.
'And they treat these guys like they're the kings of the metal scene around here.'
i thought that was moonspell.
More than A thousand new songs of what ?
of Demon fighting apparently
"For Being Shit" should be an option when flagging a youtube video.
Stupidest band name since Chunk No Captain Chunk.
"This is awful. And I'm from Portugal.
And they treat these guys like they're the kings of the metal scene around here. Pfff."

Why does my sister's email get hit with xxx rated "chat ads"? mine doesn't ever…would you have had to visit a site of that type or signed up etc. to be getting those kind of ads?
To the relief of those whose partners have asked (or accused) something along the same lines the answer is an unequivocal no.
The reverse is also true: not getting porn spam doesn't imply you haven't been out surfing porn either.
They're unrelated, and I'll explain why. And I'll also explain how they can be.
When you visit a web site – like Ask Leo! for example – you don't provide you email address to view what's on the site. You can view all the pages here and aside from an IP address, which tells me almost nothing, I have no idea who you are. I couldn't email you if I wanted to.
The same is true for porn, or any other web site for that matter. There's just no way for them to email you unless you somehow give them your email address.
Now of course … you might. For example, you might sign up for my newsletter, and I'll send that to you once a week. I'm sure that the porn industry has similar products – newsletters, subscription sites, discussion forums – all of which might require that you provide an email address. And yes, once you give them your email address, they will probably start sending you email.
In the worst case, they might also give your email address to someone else who'll start sending you email. (For the record, I do not.) And some or all of that might look like spam, including porn spam.
Porn and other shady industries on the web are also notorious for trying to infect your machine with viruses and malware that in turn could grab your email address from your email program – along with everyone in your contact list. That could land you on spammers lists.
But just surfing web sites – and doing so with appropriate anti-malware precautions and common sense – doesn't give them that information. If you haven't provided your information, they have no real way to know how to email you.
So why are you getting porn spam?
The same reason you're getting any spam: it happens. Most people get spam. Some more than others, but most all do.
At some point your email address made it onto a list of email addresses used by a spammer. That list may have been sold to another spammer, and sold to another, and another and another until your email address might be on several spammers' lists. Some of those might be drug spammers, some who send phishing attempts, and others who want to help you increase the size of certain body parts.
And, of course, some might be porn spammers.
But that's all unrelated to where you've been. It's more related to how visible your email address has been, and whether or not you've responded to (accidentally or otherwise) spam in the past by clicking on a link or replying. Once spammers realize that an email address is valid and reaches a real person, they prioritize sending spam in your direction.
So, no, if your spouse, child, partner, friend, employee or whomever starts getting porn spam it doesn't mean they did anything related to it.
It doesn't mean that they are surfing porn.
Just like the lack of spam doesn't mean they haven't been.

It will take anywhere from 3 seconds to 1 minute for your pic to upload, depending on how big it is.
You're going to see this message every time you post a new pic. So, we're making the text really long so that it'll take you at least five picture uploads to read it all. Here's what we're thinking...While your first picture is uploading think about someone you want to kiss. When you upload your second pic think about one friend who you can beat in a race. On your third photo upload think about your favorite food that begins with the letter H. While your fourth picture is uploading think about how great it would be if you were a world class breakdancer. While your fifth picture is uploading try to think of the best candy to eat if you were a mime spending a month in New Zealand. If you upload a sixth and seventh picture please just read all of this again.
We're setting up your Fundraiser page right now. It will take anywhere from 3 seconds to 27 seconds.

Police say a suspected drunken driver collided with a police cruiser and crashed into the Muskegon Heights campaign office for Democratic presidential nominee John Kerry.
The crash happened early Monday. When one campaign volunteer got to the scene, she saw a wrecker hauling the car out of the middle of the building.
The damage is expected to be repaired and the campaign office is expected to be back in action later this week.
The 36-year-old driver escaped injury. He was being held at the Muskegon County Jail for third-offense operating a vehicle under the influence of liquor and for driving with a suspended license.

Getting Schooled
Most people consider couples counseling to be for serious conflicts only. Yet, as you've probably read in just about every self-help screed ever published, the best way to solve problems is to head them off before they become problems. During an engagement, that means understanding what's behind the feeling that you're meant for each other.
If you're getting married under auspices of your religious faith, said faith may require some level of counseling – either alone with the officiant or in a larger class filled with couples preparing for marriage. Whatever you do, it'll likely be elementary and may occasionally seem quite bizarre, but you're well-advised to take the process seriously. Not only will it give you insight into your relationship (How do you achieve balance as a couple? What do you expect from marriage?), but it may also give you more talking points the next time somebody asks you what you like so much about your fiancée.
If you plan a secular marriage, or if your faith doesn't require any counseling, you can likely still find local professionals who will see you and your fiancée for a nominal fee. If you feel like you're flying blind into impending marriage, this cash outlay could be money well spent.
Of course, if everything's just peachy, don't force the issue. Some people need counseling and know it. Some people don't think they need counseling but do. And some people just don't need it.
Keep the Romance Alive
When you're planning an event for 100 guests or more, it's easy to lose track of the "little things" – including the very precious love that brought you and your fiancée together. During the engagement, we recommend you go out of your way to remind your fiancée of the passion and deep feelings that sparked your romance.
Of course, if you're the kind of guy who's uncomfortable with words like "passion," "romance" and "deep feelings," we can talk in more practical terms: You may reach a point in your engagement when your fiancée is so stressed out that she no longer wants to have sex. If that occurs, we recommend you go out of your way to remind her of the passion and deep feelings that led to your first sexual encounter. Here's how:
Go on dates. Spend some quality time alone together before you have a house full of kids. Dinner and a movie, a picnic in the park, surprise skydiving lessons, even takeout Chinese food with a movie rental can fit the bill nicely. Make a promise to each other that you will not discuss the wedding for the duration of the evening.
Go out with friends. If you and your fiancée have been grappling with some pretty tough decisions, blow off some steam with a gang of your closet friends.
Give her massages. She's stressed out. You have strong hands. It's really not that hard.
Give her a day at the spa. She's stressed out. You have weak hands but a strong credit card. It's really not that hard.
Buy her flowers. Almost all women like getting flowers, especially when there's no particular occasion, so order or pick some up and surprise her.
Consider dance classes. Dance lessons will get you in peak condition for the all-important first dance at your reception, and it's impossible to go home from these classes without getting a little action.
Write Your Own Marriage Vows
Most people opt to follow the traditional vows (to have and to hold, for better or worse, till death do you part). But if you're looking to fan the flames of passion, few activities are less effective than drafting wedding vows straight from the heart. If you and your fiancée want to try it, follow these guidelines:
Establish ground rules. Discuss what the vows should be with your fiancée and/or your officiant.
Focus on your fiancée's most positive qualities. Trust us: Zingers like "I promise never to complain about your cooking" will not evoke riotous laughter when you're standing before an entire congregation. You'll just sound like an idiot.
Write them down. Even if you're a state debate champion, you'll never know how stressful it can be to stand at the altar (or under a huppah) with the rest of your life on the line. You may be convinced you have your vows memorized, but keep a hard copy in the inside pocket of your wedding jacket, just in case.
Practice. You'll be speaking the vows to your bride, but dozens or hundreds of guests will be listening right along with her. In fact, your officiant may even hold a microphone to your lips, amplifying the vows for the entire audience – so now is not the time to be stammering. By preparing in advance – and reciting your vows at least a dozen times – you won't find yourself tongue-tied on your wedding day.
