- Mexico pledges to cut greenhouse gas emissions by 50% by 2050, making it one of the few developing countries to set such a goal. They'll use solar power, wind power and other clean technologies to meet the mark. Officials hope other countries follow; via the Associated Press.
- The U.N. will allocate millions of dollars to help poor nations reduce emissions and adapt to climate change conditions, like droughts and floods. The money will come from a 2% levy on investments industrial nations make on green projects worldwide; from the Associated Press.
- More global warming news, the E.U. has reached a unanimous agreement on the "20-20-20" climate package. Under the plan, nations will decrease greenhouse emissions by 20% by 2020, make 20% energy savings and increase renewable energy usage by 20%; the AFP reports.
- While some large corporations, such as IBM and Dell, are improving operations to reduce greenhouse gases, many U.S. companies are "largely ignoring" the problem. Out of a possible grade of 100, the median score was 38. IBM scored 79 and Dell scored 77; more from the AFP.
- The EPA has launched its list of the "Most Wanted" environmental fugitives. Violators include a man who dumped his tanker truck into Little Beaver Creek in Ohio. And a father and son team who illegally imports cars into the U.S. that do not meet emission standards; via DiscoBlog.
- A disgraced tanker captain in South Korean was sentenced to 18 months in jail and fined $13,990 for criminal neglect when his ship caused the country's worst oil spill, causing $500 in damages and polluted a wide expanse of shoreline. The spill destroyed the oyster business; from ENN.

When it's cold everyone looks for comfort: comfort food, cuddly blankets, childhood memories and hot cocoa. There's something relaxing about classic food and remembering when you were a kid and snow was fun, not a whole chore. Molly's Cupcakes in Lincoln Park captures this childhood fun and comfort with their sweet cakes and playful atmosphere.
Molly's Cupcakes was created by founder and owner Johnny in honor of his third-grade teacher. She would bake her students' cupcakes for their birthdays. In addition to whipping up delicious cupcakes, they donate a portion of profits to schools in the community.
Their selection of cupcakes shows you the diversity they offer, but their specialty is center-filled cupcakes. They won Cupcake Wars during Season One on the Food Network with a lemon kiwi cupcake. The Ron Bennington is one of the most popular cupcakes at the shop, named after radio personality and comedian of the same name, but Chicago Magazine has named their red velvet the best in Chicago.
With all those options it was hard to choose just one, so this taste test takes on two comforting cupcakes, The Cookie Monster and Cookies-n-Cream.
The Cookie Monster
This cupcake is a chocolate chip cake topped with vanilla buttercream and filled with cookie dough. Paired with Sesame Street's Cookie Monster on the sign it was hard to overlook this filled delight. At first it seemed the bite-size chocolate chip cookie atop this cupcake was all that made it a "cookie monster." But when you finally got to the cookie dough in the center, it was magical. The creamy, soft frosting combined with moist cake and classic chocolate chip cookie dough was like a child's dream. If only you could ensure there was cookie dough in every bite.
This cupcake is a chocolate cake topped with a chocolate ganache and vanilla buttercream and filled with chocolate. Their vanilla buttercream is a classic, creamy and not too sweet, so it paired perfectly with the chocolate cake. The disappointing aspect to this cupcake though was how much chocolate was incorporated. Cookies and cream very often refers to an oreo-like flavor, so there should be a lot of chocolate, but this felt like it was lacking in the cream department of overall taste. Perhaps if they had filled it with vanilla frosting it would fit its name more accurately.
Molly's Cupcakes compliments the playful feeling of their cupcakes with vintage metal lunchboxes above the barista station, a sprinkle station to add assorted sprinkles to your cupcake creation, pop hits playing over the speakers and classic board games like Connect Four for customers to play. If that wasn't enough comfort in one location, you can sit on their oversized swings while enjoying your cupcake and even add a coffee or latte to keep you warm on a winter's day.

Quentin Tarantino dropped his "Hateful Eight" western movie project after someone went behind his back and leaked the script. Tarantino only handed the script to a few trusted people to read when offering them the different roles in the movie and now he is inundated with calls from agents, according to the BBC on Jan. 22.
He also added that he is "very very depressed" over this leak. The filmmaker offered one of the roles in the movie to Tim Roth, who has worked with Tarantino before.
Tarantino said that three actors were given the script, including Roth. He definitely knows it wasn't Roth who leaked the script, but believes it was one of the other two actors who showed the script to their agent. He didn't name the other two actors.
This is what Tarantino believes saturated his phone with calls from agents. The agents started calling plugging their clients for a role in the movie.
The "Hateful Eight" is no longer a movie script today, Tarantino plans on publishing the script as a book and down the line revisit the idea of making it a movie.
Can you imagine that an agent out in Hollywood is responsible for the Tarantino fans not having this movie to look forward to? After his "Django Unchained" movie's success, fans are looking forward to whatever Tarantino brings to the screen.
Tarantino has had a solid following of movie fans for years, who wait anxiously for his next movie offering. It looks like this western, the "Hateful Eight" won't be hitting the screen anytime soon, if ever. Check out the video above when he first announced the "Hateful Eight" movie project on Leno.

I felt her presence, along with Juhani and Jolee. I rose from my meditative state, and a flick of power leaped out, sealing the door behind her.
So predictable. I said, standing smoothly. The grand leader with her hounds at her heels.
You knew Id come, Bastila. She said with a sad smile. Its starting to look like it might be a habit.
Saving you.
I barked a laugh. As always you think more highly of your own actions than others would. How can you rescue someone from something they do willingly?
Ill never give up on you, Bastila. I know you can be saved.
Quit wasting your time. I see the Jedi for what they are. Weak fearful old fools that cling to a path no one in their right mind would follow. The Sith are the true masters of the Force, and have always been. You have forgotten that, Revan.
Now you must pay the price. Here on the Star Forge, the Dark side is supreme. This time you will die.
Please, Bastila. She said softly. We dont have to do this.
I do. As long as that bond exists I am linked to a whining cowardly being that doesnt have the decency to die. I can take my rightful place at my masters side without the anchor you have become. Without you I am superior to all but him. With you, I am nothing.
No. You have never been worthless. She said sadly. You are the one that put a shattered mind together. That redeemed me. I must try to do the same for you.
Dont make me laugh! I snarled. When I found you all I had to work with was a mewling pile of flesh without the wit to stop drooling! I didnt redeem you Revan. I put together a composite of one stupid woman with another and here you stand! All I did was reprogram your computer, and over-write it, as the Jedi would have wanted.
True. She smiled sadly. But did you actually read her files? There are memories here that are not hers. She tapped her head. Danika was from Deralia, true. But she worked in one of the resorts. She never saw what I was able to show you. She made sergeant because she was the senior person in her squad, not through any brilliance as a soldier. When it was her time to die she accepted it because there was nothing she could do.
Revan however went to Deralia on a hunting trip with her father and older brother just before she went off to the Jedi Academy. She met a girl a few years older than herself named Kalendra. Kalendra introduced me to the Tirlat, and the idea of compassionate love.
That memory, you lying on the ground asking me to bond, me above you. That was the same except it was me as a six-year-old girl on the bottom, She touched her chest, And a nine-year-old kneeling over me. Not the love you created for a much older girl. I didnt bond then because I had sworn to bond with the Jedi. It was I that didnt want to be separated, I that cried in her lap wishing I could change the world and stay.
Dont you see? She stepped toward me, hand out. You didnt just create another program as you think. You took what I was, merged it with a person so selfless that she died assuring we would live, and made me. I cannot help being what and who I am. You made me in the image of what you wanted in a companion and life mate. How else can we feel as we do?
I screamed and cut at her savagely. She blocked, and suddenly she smiled.
-It was evening, Danika faced me. We were dueling. Not with lightsabers, but with long springy vines. Our movements were fast and clean, but they were more two girls playing rather than a serious battle. Dance with me. She whispered.
-Stop it! I leaped back. She didnt follow. I laughed, but even I could hear a thread of panic in it. I see now why Malak followed you. A shell of what you once were but still a formidable opponent. I cant even imagine the power you once had and wielded as the Dark Lord. You were a fool to give it all up and follow the light.
I am as strong in the light as I ever was in darkness, Bastila. She replied.
Lies! The dark side has made me stronger than I have ever been. Stronger than Master Vandar, stronger than Vrook! I will have control of more power than their strait minds would even imagine!
As Malak teaches me the greatest secrets of the Sith I will unlock all of my potential. Eventually there will be will be no limit to what I can achieve. I will even learn to build another Star Forge!
As Ajunta Pall told me, all you will accomplish is death and destruction. Those around you, then yourself.
I shook my head. Ajunta Pall is dead for two millennia. He speaks no more. If any knew the true strength of the Sith it was he! All else is Jedi propaganda. The dark side is a tool, nothing more. A more efficient and cutting tool than the light. Eventually I will surpass my master. When I do, I will challenge him, and he will die.
Then I shall take on my own apprentice and the cycle will begin again. This has always been the way of the Sith. It assures that only the strongest rule us.
'We fought among ourselves to see who would be the greatest among us, and we brought our own fortresses down upon our heads'. She said.
As I said, I talked with the spirit of Ajunta Pall. Those were his words to me. The first true lord of the Sith, yet as he died he knew it was all a lie. She said. You doom yourself, you try to doom the Galaxy to an endless cycle of death and betrayal.
No, it is you that are doomed! I cut at her knees, but she blocked me. Then she began a fluid attack that had me backing away desperately. I leaped backward ten meters, throwing my lightsaber. She flicked it off with the force, then caught it. She smiled, then flipped it back to me.
You are growing tired! I can feel it! Your strength falters as the dark side saps the light!
Then strike me down, Bastila. She sighed, setting her lightsaber on the deck. I wont fight you any more.
Then die!
Bond with me. She knelt. You only see the pallid shapes of the bond, Bastila. You didnt know how to bond with an Echani, and all you get is glimpses. I know this because we would not be here like this if you had. I see it all and it is wondrous and magnificent. All that you are, all that you had, all that you feared. I see it!
Bond with me
. My mind repeated the phrase over and over. I remembered kneeling over her body. Frantically I had reached into her mind in a way I had never imagined, a dark place, yet in it was a single spark of life. It was a vision of a young girl, her heart racing, looking up at an older girl laughing at something. But even as I witnessed it the memory began to fade. She was older than I was so I substituted us for the girls. As the younger it was I that lay on that suddenly soft grass, touching the face that hovered above me.
Bond with me.
She had resisted, but I refused to let her go. She had kissed me, accepting the bond, and I felt myself kneeling again, holding her hand. She was alive, but if I moved away from her she spasmed as if being struck by seizures. I had to touch her every second.
The others had helped, carrying her on a stretcher as I ran along side. We had reached the escape pods, and the door had barely closed when the ship began to break up. Something shattered the pods engine, and we whirled away as the ship exploded.
Long hours had passed, and the others had fallen off to sleep. I was bound to Revan by that link I maintained so I did not get any sleep. Then I felt the wreckage shift. I looked up, just as a faceplate blackened. It was the real Danika. She was dying from anoxia even then. Somehow I reached out a second time, feeling her thoughts and memories flowing through her. Then starting to fade as she died. I touched her mind, and was suddenly inundated in those memories. While she had consciously known she must die, her spirit had railed against her fate. I found her memories trying to force themselves into my mind clinging to me, and I frantically pushed them away into the only receptacle free for them, the now empty mind of Revan. As the shuttle came alongside, I felt the last of them pass through me into Revan.
When I was done, two people had become one. She awoke in the sickbay, remembering Danikas life vividly. Yet I could feel her questing outward for something, and when she felt my mind, we had bonded.
Now I could feel her questing again, pushing along the bond like an eel slipping through a crack in a wall. Revan-
Bond with me or kill me. She whispered. I who was once Revan Chandar Bai Echani ask you Bastila to bond with me in full. To share the joy and the sorrow the pleasure and the pain, to share all that two people can share until death. To stand with me until the universe dies. She closed her eyes, looking down. Dont make me go through life alone.
She was defenseless! I could kill her! I raised my lightsaber, ready to cut down-
-The only person who had never asked for more than I might give at any time. Never berated, never screamed, never pressed too hard. The person that had held me in my pain at my fathers death. That had forgiven me for what I had done to save her life. The person-
-Whose hand I touched so delicately. Her fingers spread, and I felt my own interlace. My other hand came up unbidden, and those fingers locked as well. I found myself looking at her as her eyes opened, and in them I could see myself. Not the inner picture of yourself you create. Not the mirror that you preen before. The memories flooded into me. I saw myself dirty and bedraggled in a slavers cage, snarling at my rescuer. Pontificating to both her and Carth. Woebegone as she stood on the floor of the apartment on Taris. Deep in thought as I puzzled out the first star map. Stricken when I learned of my fathers death. Huddled in pain when we found his body. Bleary when she had taken off that collar on Manaan. Screaming in fury as I had charged Malak. Haughty when I faced her in the temple. Then the same sneering face when I fought her here.
Yet all had the same glowing quality, as if the person saw deep within, measured all my good, all my faults all my petty worries, then cast them aside and embraced all I was in a love that cannot be matched by any hate. I felt as if my father held me again, as if nothing would ever hurt me, and I knew she would protect me from anything as long as she lived.
At the same instant I understood why she was always so hesitant around me, I realized that she had been feeling and seeing all of this from the moment she had found and sealed the bond. My doubts about her ability, my lies when I spoke to her on Taris, on Dantooine, every lie I had spoken since my terror at being linked to someone else this tightly. All transparent to her except when I was consciously blocking it.
Yet she had continued to reach out rather than thrust me aside. She had felt that I was betraying her trust, no,
I was betraying her, but what she saw had convinced her to strive to maintain the link.
Only now I felt it, a soft whisper of thought. Mine being answered, hers touching me in ways no one had ever done before. It should have been terrifying, but I had been doing the same clumsily to her all this time.
I saw myself kneeling in meditation as I decimated the Republic fleet. While I had felt the glee of having her where I wanted her, she was feeling my worry, my fury, my determination to kill her, she counter-pointed those emotions with regret. She knew what I felt, what I wanted, even now. She felt regret that she might have to kill me. I suddenly saw her afterward, Malak dead, me dead, the Republic coming to kill the Star Forge, and not caring that she would die with it. For her there would be no life afterward.
I found myself kneeling with her, my head buried against her neck, hugging her tight enough to cause bones to creak, but she never wavered, her voice crooning softly to me. I couldnt hate her. I could never fight her. It would be like slicing off my own hands.
I always had faith in you. She whispered, her lips brushing my cheek.
I opened my eyes, then suddenly spun, staring at the battle. The Republic fleet was being smashed before my eyes. What have I done! I wailed.
You can help them. She said. She reached out, touching my face. I must deal with other business.
But I can help you!
Do you think youre strong enough to face Malak again? She whispered gently.
I shook my head. It had been too easy to turn me to the dark side before. She must know my own strength. You are right. Go, I will help the Republic fleet as long as I can.
Only if you promise me one thing. If you feel as if the force has left you suddenly, run. Get to the ship. Get away.
I dont understand.
Trust me. She walked toward the door. She looked back, and gave a small wave. I knew she didnt expect to see me again.
I reached out, feeling the struggling Republic soldiers stand a little straighter. I will be here when you return. I whispered.
Coruscant Glory
The Republic troops felt it almost as soon as Bastila had begun. On the ships, the crews were no longer scattered men doing their best against impossible odds. They were smoothly operating cogs in a mammoth machine directed by one woman with omniscient vision.
There! Admiral Dodonna pointed. A weakness in their left flank. Have Green squadron punch through!
On it! Trev Collo replied. The Aleph class fighter jumped in his hands as he aimed at the Star Cruiser
. All right guys! Lets rock! Behind him, the seven remaining fighters of his squadron leaped into the fray. As they passed, the fighters blasted the huge ships. Trev detected the collapse of the gravity well generator aboard the cruiser and shrieked with joy as his fighters punched through. Ahead of him a bare minute away was the Star Forge. He climbed sharply to make another run.
Weve broken through!
Understood. Dodonnas voice was still calm. Hed never heard her any other way. The Dark Lord of the Sixth they called her. Bastila is now assisting us with her battle meditation. Lets capitalize on it. Red Squadron, keep that hole open! All capital ships punch through and support the fighters!
Like the behemoths they were the other capital ships of the fleet forged forward. There was only thirty odd left, and as they advanced, one fell out of formation, breaking up. Behind them the Sith fleet was pushing in, but if they could get through the gap and attack the Star Forge, the loss would be worth it.
Red squadron in the larger Crucis class fighters bored in. Their heavier guns ravened across [/i]Mammoth[/i], and her sister ship
. Both fell out of formation, air forming clouds like blood around them as the capital ships raced past them. Hundreds of Sith fighters came in, facing less Republic fighters now, but the Republic knew they could win. Even if every ship died in this system, they would win if they destroyed that huge suddenly fragile target before them.
'To argue with those who have renounced the use and authority of reason is as futile as to administer medicine to the dead.' Now who said that?
From the one who brought you;
What we die for...

I admit, I'm a real fan of flavored coffees - which I find add a festive note to the daily mug of joe. This Honey Nut Praline coffee is just amazing - the scent of honey wafts across the kitchen as this coffee is brewing, and the perfect blending of honey and praline is fabulous. I guzzled down my coffee this morning, and savored every drop. Double "yum!!"

No food in sight today. Instead, we follow some Catawba grapes from the vine to the bottle at the Oliver Winery. We'll finish the day with some mulled wine.
Thanks to warm temperatures in early October, this is the latest the folks at Oliver Winery's Creekbend Vineyard have ever been able to harvest Catawba grapes.

The Bruins return to Pauley Pavilion for their final two home games of October, playing host to the Oregon schools this Thursday and Friday. After three weekends of conference play, UCLA sits in fifth place with a .500 record in Pac-10 play. After this week's home series with the Beavers and Ducks, the Bruins travel to USC next weekend before playing two in the state of Washington to close out the month of October. After Friday night's game against Oregon, UCLA's next match in Westwood will be on November 1 against Stanford.
Bruins Stay at .500 With Bay Area Split
UCLA provided some dramatics last weekend, recording an exceptional comeback in game one of Friday's 3-1 win at Cal before traveling down to Stanford and recording a 1-3 loss. In the opening game of the match at Cal, the Bruins trailed 29-23 before scoring eight straight points to win the game 31-29, en route to a 31-29, 26-30, 30-21, 30-23 victory over the Golden Bears. In the game, sophomore libero Chrissie Zartman posted a career-high 28 digs, leading all players. Four bruins had double-figure digs, with Heather Cullen leading the way with 16, followed by Lauren Fendrick with 14, Brittany Ringel with 12 and Cira Wright with 11. Angela Eckmier posted a match-high seven blocks, all assists, as one of five Bruins to score double-figure points. On Saturday night at Stanford, the fourth-ranked Cardinal earned the 30-24, 25-30, 30-25, 30-22 victory over UCLA. In Saturday's match, three Bruins had double-figure kills, led by Ringel with 15, while Fendrick and Cullen contributed 14 and 10, respectively. Fendrick double-doubled with a match-high 19 digs, while Cullen and Zartman recorded 12 apiece. Eckmier and Wright each had five blocks in the match.
UCLA vs. Oregon State
The Bruins hold a 31-2 all-time record against Oregon State, including a 15-1 record at home. OSU's only victory in Westwood was on September 28, 2000 in Pauley Pavilion, a 4-15, 15-10, 7-15, 15-13, 16-14 victory that was the first over the Bruins in OSU program history. Last season, UCLA defeated the Beavers 3-0 in Pauley Pavilion on Nov. 16, but UCLA fell to Oregon State three days later in Corvallis, 3-1. The Nov. 16 match in Corvallis was originally scheduled for Sept. 13, but was changed due to the events of Sept. 11, 2001.
UCLA vs. Oregon
UCLA holds a 35-1 all-time record against the Ducks, including a 16-0 record in Westwood. Oregon's only victory over the Bruin women's volleyball team was a 3-1 win on Sept. 26, 1987 in Eugene. Last season, UCLA swept the Ducks with a 3-0 win in Pauley Pavilion on Nov. 15 followed by a 3-1 win in Eugene on Nov. 20.
Head Coach Andy Banachowski
In his 36th season on the Bruin bench, UCLA head coach Andy Banachowski remains one of the top coaches in his profession. On Sept. 1, 2001, in Hawaii, he became the first collegiate women's volleyball coach in history to record 900 career wins, and is just the second collegiate volleyball coach for either gender to reach that milestone. UCLA men's coach Al Scates, for whom Banachowski was a setter during his collegiate career, posted his 1,000th career win in February, 2000. The first women's volleyball coach to be inducted into the National Volleyball Hall of Fame in Holyoke, MA, Banachowski currently has a career record of 929-227 (.804), and has coached the Bruins to six national championships, including three NCAA titles.
Next Week for the Bruins
UCLA is away from Pauley Pavilion for the next two weekends, trekking across town next Friday for a 7 pm match against top-ranked USC at the Lyon Center. The Bruins will then travel to Washington and Washington State before returning to Pauley at the start of November.

Two asteroids are passing within the moon's distance from Earth today.
The Catalina Sky Survey near Tucson, Ariz., discovered both objects on Sunday. The Minor Planet Center in Cambridge, Mass., reviewed the observations and determined the preliminary orbits. The center's personnel concluded both objects would pass within the distance of the moon to Earth, approximately 240,000 miles. The asteroids should be visible with moderate-sized amateur telescopes.
Neither asteroid will hit Earth. Asteroid 2010 RX30 is estimated to be approximately 32 to 65 feet in size passed within approximately 154,000 miles of Earth at 5:51 a.m. EDT today. The second object, 2010 RF12, estimated to be 20 to 46 feet in size, will pass within approximately 49,000 miles at 5:12 p.m. EDT this afternoon.

Reviews for Onion Meat Loaf
"Really easy to prepare and delicious. We did use barbecue sauce instead of catsup, just our preference. The foil made it really easy to lift out. We will have this again for sure!"
"I have made it in the crock pot and in the over, my family loved it."
"Tasty and easy! I substituted a pound of ground turkey for half of the ground beef and baked in a conventional oven at 375 for an hour. Turned out moist and was a hit with our family! Will definitely make again!"
"This meat loaf was second only to my grandmother's recipe. It was delicious and moist and it was nice to have the oven free for other dishes."
"This was great!! I added some diced red pepper and some leftover diced onion. So it was nice and onion-y! Didn't have oatmeal so I used 3 slices of white, whole-grain bread that I crumbled. Was super easy and delicious."

Photo: Diageo Reserve World Class
Describe your approach to making cocktails in one word and tell us why that defines your style.
Hipster – I enjoy classic cocktails but what I really love is putting together flavours that, on paper, don't seem like they would work together. I love doing something for the first time, especially if no one else has done it before.
Where do you find inspiration for creating new drinks?
I take walks through markets. Sometimes you can find fruit and vegetables that you wouldn't normally associate with traditional bartending. I also find a lot of inspiration during my travels and I try to visit local markets whenever I am abroad. I believe that local markets are the best places to appreciate any food and drink culture because you get to see the very essence of the produce.
What made your creation stand out at this edition of Diageo Reserve World Class Singapore?
My winning drink was a take on the classic Bloody Mary. As random as it sounds, I combined tomatoes and lychees into my cocktail but it really worked. Those lovely top quality cherry tomatoes definitely made my creation stand out. The varying qualities of produce from farmers can make big differences in your tipple. If I had used local tomatoes, the drink would have been considerably different. I've always wanted to use cherry tomatoes in a drink and I was really inspired to use basil from visiting a pizza place. I also wanted to use something local, and a random walkabout in a supermarket left me thinking about lychees and pineapples and something told me they would work really well together.
Louis Tan's The Wolf's Peach Illusion, his award-winning take on the Bloody Mary.
How does a competition like this help you career-wise and on a personal level?
A competition like World Class is going to be phenomenal in anybody's career. It's just a fantastic learning experience being able to compete in an international competition with some of the most acclaimed spirit brands in the market. I absolutely think that the kind of exposure we get out of this program – globally and regionally – will inspire any bartender out there to be the best they can be. I must say the pressure of having to present our creations to three stern looking judges (during the first semifinal in November), and have the rest of the bartending community watch you in total silence, is unlike anything we face behind the bar. Being able to walk away from that competition with a spot in the national final has definitely made me more confident than ever.
What is your advice to anyone who wants to get serious about making good cocktails?
Invest in a good set of equipment. Any serious bartender worth his salt, will have his or her own personal kit. Get a shaker set that works for you, and get a dedicated mixing glass for stirred drinks.
"Any serious bartender worth his salt, will have his or her own personal kit."
What is your favourite cocktail?
The Gimlet. It's based on the classic "sour" (spirit, acid and sugar) family that works so well and is seen in many if not most of the classic cocktails of the world. The sour family is what I consider to be the building block of modern mixology, laying the foundations for most bartenders. In the Gimlet, there is no additional flavour from liqueurs or fruits; just gin or vodka, lime juice and sugar syrup. I like to use Tanqueray No. Ten and Ketel One for the drinks due to their subtle notes. It's a sour drink that has been stripped to its core. With a drink like that, you can never use bad ingredients – a slight difference in flavour, quality or technique will make the drink instantly unrecognisable.
What do you think of buzzwords like "mixology", "bespoke", "boutique" and "speakeasy" when it comes to describing cocktails and cocktail bars?
I think those buzzwords are there to create more noise for our humble profession. It is nice to see that bartenders around the world are becoming more valuable, and are now being seen as professionals, or even artists. At the end of the day, we are all still bartenders. Bartending is more than just about mixing drinks and being able to remember one million recipes in your head. It's honestly about being a host, and making your guests feel at home in your bar.
The holiday season is here, what are your recommendations for people looking to make some festive cocktails?
Egg nog! Making it is a great deal of fun, and does not require great technical know-how. The ingredients of eggs, milk, sugar, whipping cream and Ron Zacapa Rum make me feel like I'm baking. There is no standard recipe and everybody has his or her own variation; I've been making it every year for ages, but no two batches ever taste the same. There is no right or wrong with egg nog, so you can just dive right in and be creative with it!

The Player: Hard Hookups
Page 3 of 3
You know who they are: It's the group of exceedingly hot girls that hit the nightclub with the understood rule that they "arrive together and leave together." It's almost inevitable that one of them will spot a comely companion (that might be you) and try to break the rule, but her friends stand fast. They suddenly become a bunch of babbling overprotective mother hens, and the chances of scoring that night quickly drop to almost nil. Seems like one of those hard hookups, right? However, in much the same way you approached the seemingly unapproachable stunner in the previous tip, you simply need to get your chosen lady alone for a minute. It's the first step and it's really that simple. Even so, there is a gigantic difference in this situation, because under no circumstances must you ignore her friends. If you're just a faceless guy, that aforementioned rule will remain unbreakable. However, after getting to know the selected woman for a bit, you find a way to swing introductions to her friends. After that, all you have to do is be your regular ol' charming self, and you will quickly convince the mother hens that their friend's choice is a solid one. Some of the more jealous women may still object, but they're no longer your concern.
The female protector
who doesn't love a challenge?The easy hookups are quick fixes for whatever ails the male ego, but the hard hookups are just as crucial for the Player. "If you don't use it, you'll lose it." I'm certain you've heard this saying before, and it rings true in the romantic world: if you don't exercise and test your ability frequently, you'll soon begin to lose the skills you've worked so hard to obtain. Stick with the easy hookups long enough, and before long, all "easy" hookups will disappear. You'll be just another confused, awkward, intimidated dude in the bar, and you've come way too far to return to that teenager you left behind years ago. Yes, your success ratio will drop significantly when attempting hard hookups like the ones listed above, but so what? It's valuable experience, and a good Player knows that experience is entirely responsible for his growing repertoire. Don't ever forget that.

The idea that eskimoes have hundreds of words for snow is actually an old wives' tale. Wall Street analysts, on the other hand, this morning are coming up with hundreds of words for "flabbergasted," as in "we're flummoxed we didn't see how awesome Apple's fourth-quarter earnings would be."
Analyst notes this morning are throwing around words like "awe-inspiring," "stellar," "blowout" and "blockbuster" to describe Apple's fourth-quarter results, which stone-cold blew away analyst estimates, pushing the stock up more than 7% in early trading and making the company once again the biggest public company in the US.
Analysts are scrambling to raise their price targets for the stock, though one of the street's biggest Apple bulls held firm to his devilish target of $666 (it's currently just below $450).
That would be Ticonderoga Securities analyst Brian White, who last night wrote of the Applepocalypse:
Apple Crushes Even the Most Optimistic Expectations, $666 Here We Come. This evening, Apple reported 1QFY12 sales of $46.33 billion compared to our revenue estimate of $39.39 billion (Street was at $38.85 billion), while pro forma EPS of $13.87 crushed our $10.15 projection (Street was at $10.08). Recall, Apple's 1QFY12 outlook called for sales of $37 billion and EPS of $9.30. Looking into 2QFY12, Apple expects sales of $32.5 billion and pro forma EPS of $8.50 versus our revenue projection of $31.5 billion (Street is at $32.0 billion) and EPS projection of $7.57 (Street is at $8.02). … In our view, this is clearly a quarter to remember and speaks to the momentum at Apple that we believe has further room to run, ultimately driving the stock to our 12-month price target of $666.
Not satisfied with that note, White this morning wrote that Apple "takes our breath away:"
we remain aggressive buyers of Apple as we believe the market continues to severely underestimate the long-term, sustainable earnings power of the company and potential for a gusher of a cash dividend in the future. The stock is currently trading at just 7.5x our CY12 EPS estimate (ex-cash) and we expect Apple's product portfolio momentum to continue…
Canaccord Genuity analyst Michael Walkley, meanwhile, raised his target to $650 from $560 and said he thinks Apple might soon be doling out some of its massive, $97 billion cash pile:
Based on the remarkable iPhone sales, we estimate Apple's unit share of the smartphone market increased from 14% during CQ3/2011 to 23% in CQ4/2011"
We anticipate another year of record cash generation. With Apple expected to cross $100B in cash during the March quarter, we believe this milestone might push Apple to announce a dividend.
FBN analysts also raised their price targets to $650, from $515 earlier, and also get excited about a possible dividend:
The strong overall revenue growth (47% on $36B in revenue) and the very strong GM (44.7% vs. 40% guidance) show the strength of AAPL's current position in the market. Furthermore, with additional catalysts later this year (iPad3 perhaps in April, iPhone 5 in CH2, iTV in late 2012 or in early 2013), AAPL simply has too much going for it right now. Investors are rightfully wondering what AAPL will do with its net cash (now $97.6B, or $96/share, up from $82B or $82/share in the prior quarter); should it declare a dividend or more actively repurchase shares, then its stock price has more catalysts still.
Citi raised its target to $600 from $500 and sees a big buyback program coming:
We are significantly raising FY12 and FY13 EPS by 15% and 29%, respectively. The revisions are primarily driven by higher revs and gross margin estimates resulting from an improved iPhone shipment outlook. We note that roughly 11% of the earnings revision for FY13 is based on our assumption that mgt will initiate a share repo program starting in 2CQ12 and begin buying back $10B/qtr.
Goldman Sachs raised its target to $600 from $550 and sees a bunch of catalysts:
Even after this quarter's upside, we believe the year is chock full of catalysts to drive further share price momentum. We continue to expect a late March quarter iPad refresh and a lower price point for the iPad 2, as well as a mid-year iPhone refresh. We believe the MacBook Air will continue to gain share in the PC sector, and we believe Apple will finally launch an iOS-based television in late 2012 or early 2013. Finally, our expectation for a dividend announcement this year could represent a critical catalyst that brings a new class of investors into the stock.
Sterne Agee raises its price target, too, but to a more-modest $550 from $540. We admire their reserve, but this seems a little timid, especially considering they see a new iPad in our future:
Driving this was very strong pentup demand for the new flagship iPhone 4S, as well as strong momentum for the iPhone 4 and 3GS. In addition, it appears that the competitive impact from AMZN's Kindle Fire was much less than expected. Gross margin came in at 44.7%, much higher than expectations of 40%-41% due to a favorable component pricing, as well as a mix shift towards iPhone.
For its outlook, AAPL guided above consensus, which is rare for a company known for its vintage conservative guidance. For the March quarter, the company is looking for $32.5 billion in revenue and $8.50 in EPS vs. consensus at $32 billion and $8.03 in EPS. While AAPL does not pre-announce future products, we believe this guidance implies that there could be an iPad update in the quarter, which is consistent with what we have been seeing in our supply chain checks.
Hudson Square Research doesn't need to raise its price target because it already sees Apple going to 700 freaking bucks! It simply needs to lather on the praise:
Apple reported an awe inspiring quarter with sales above expectations across all product lines.
Pacific Crest called the quarter "unlike anything we have ever seen" and raised its price target to $580 from $470:
The launch of Amazon's Kindle Fire created no noticeable impact on iPad sales, and strong sell-through of iPad and iPhone prevented Apple from building its preferred level of channel inventory. Both signals point to an incredible level of demand for iPhone and iPad that should support robust unit sales for the foreseeable future.
Higher iPhone and iPad unit estimates drive our F2012 EPS estimate to $45.13 from $34.84, F2013 EPS estimate to $47.39 from $36.43. We are raising our F2012 iPhone unit estimate to 124 million from 102 million and raising our F2012 iPad estimate to 56 million from 47 million, which drives the EPS increase.

Erin Weir's campaign sent out an e-mail blast today entitled "Why We're With Weir" which lists excerpts from various supporters and endorsers.
Pretty standard stuff that we've seen from all campaigns except that this e-mail included a quote from somebody who I'm pretty sure isn't "With Weir"…ME!
I'm in good company as they also included quotes from Greg at Accidental Jurist, Scott at Canadian Political Viewpoints and Jim at Buckdog – none of whom, as far as I know, have formally announced support for Erin Weir's campaign.
[Edit: Just to be clear, the positive quotes from bloggers comes under a section with some positive quotes from journalists and I think the intention was that these two sections be seen as separate from the initial section with endorsers since, at least in the case of the media, it's fairly clear that these are positive comments rather than full-on endorsements. But given the title of the blast, I can also see why it could cause confusion. And there's also some other carelessness which could reinforce the idea that this misdirection is purposeful – all the former elected politicians who are supporting Erin are listed simply as "MLA for Melville" or "MP for Palliser" or whatever. These do come under a heading of "Former Elected Officials Support Weir" but again, there is potential for confusion for any readers not paying close attention or who don't realise the NDP hasn't had an MP for Palliser for at least a couple election cycles!]
Ryan Meili's positive approach to politics has obviously had a good influence on me as I'm not going to ascribe nefarious motives to this seeming mis-representation. (It happens – I remember a similar incident in the 2009 campaign when someone made a big stink after being shown in a Facebook album on Dwain Lingenfelter's campaign page in a way that implied that they'd endorsed him rather than just attended an event and been photographed with him.)
So how did I end up appearing in an e-mail blast as an apparent Erin Weir supporter?
As I've been clear, I see this blog as a place more for my own personal opinions where I can call things as I see them. I've been complimentary and critical of all candidates at various points during the course of this leadership campaign.
Of course it would be easy for me to just avoid saying anything nice about anyone other than my chosen candidate so my words can't be mis-used in this way but that wouldn't be honest, either to myself or my readers. (On the flip side, it would also be really easy for me to be a LOT more opinionated with my thoughts about the various other candidates than I have been – and which I probably would be if I wasn't so closely associated with Ryan's campaign.)
So instead, I'll just point out that Trent Wotherspoon's campaign hasn't mis-represented my words this way and since I'm still undecided as to how I'm going to rank my ballot, I will say that little things like this make me more inclined to rank Trent ahead of Erin.
And you can quote me on that!

The mother of a preschooler stabbed her daughter's teacher to death in front of the class on Friday. This scene of carnage played out as the children at this French pre-school watched in horror as their classmate's mom repeatedly stabbed the teacher until she was lifeless on the floor of the classroom.
The mother, who was suffering from psychological problems, ended the last day of school for the children in a scene of bloodshed, according to USA Today on July 4. The child, whose mother did this horrific crime, was new to the school and had only been enrolled for about a month and a half.
A police official said that the mother, who was taken into custody, stabbed this teacher multiple times soon after the start of school on Friday. This mother had very little contact with the school until Friday when she killed the teacher.
According to Mail Online, the mother attempted to escape, but was apprehended by police close to the school grounds. Witnesses report that the mother screamed "I am not a thief" before plunging the knife into the teacher's abdomen. The victim is identified as a 34-year-old mother of two, Fabienne Calmes.
The motive for this killing is unknown, but Marie-Odile Gay, who is a member of the regional health and safety committee for the Education Ministry said that "the mother thought this teacher had called her daughter a thief." This was a misconception on the mother's part, but it might have been behind the mother's attack on the teacher.
The mother's five-year-old daughter didn't have any problems in school. It was not known if the girl was in school on Friday to witness her mother's carnage. She is now in the care of social services.
France does not see this type of violence and incidents, such as this are extremely rare. It is a country with very little crime in comparison to the U.S. and other developed countries. Even though it was an adult teacher who is the victim of this crime, the children of this classroom are also victims, as this will without a doubt leave them with psychological scars.
The mother who did the stabbing is not an unknown to police. She was accused of abandoning her 15-year-old-son earlier this year. The mother, who is 47, has been under psychiatric care as an outpatient in counseling previously.

MWC Monday roundup: Asus, ZTE and Nokia unveil latest smartphone innovations
Asus and ZTE bet big on phablets
BARCELONA: IT'S HARD TO BELIEVE that day two of Mobile World Congress (MWC) is already behind us, but what a day it was.
Monday was all about redefining the smartphone. ZTE, for example, is clearly betting big on mammoth screened devices, announcing the ZTE Grand Memo at the show yesterday. This phone takes Samsung's Galaxy Note 2 handset and makes it even bigger, as the ZTE Grand Memo touts a 5.7in screen.
The INQUIRER was quick to get its hands on the device. Well, we say get our hands on, but we could barely get our fingers around the Grand Memo, not to mention how stupid we felt when we held the phone up to our face.
Sure, we might just have abnormally small hands, but we couldn't help but think that ZTE had gone a step too far with the Grand Memo's size.
Following ZTE's announcement, we weren't expecting or hoping to see any larger phones on the MWC show floor, and then came Asus' announcement.
As well as announcing its latest Padfone device, which is a 5in smartphone with a 10.1in docking station, Asus shocked the crowd by announcing the Fonepad. The Asus Fonepad is, essentially, a 7in smartphone, a device that makes Samsung's Galaxy Note look positively small in comparison.
Asus' Padfone unveiling also arrived after Samsung's announcement of the Galaxy Note 8.0 on Sunday, an 8in tablet that also has the ability to make phone calls. However, Samsung seemed keen to point out that its 8in Galaxy Note is not a smartphone, but it seemed that Asus had different ideas.
Of course, not every company is betting big on phablets, and Nokia steered clear of mammoth screened phones during its conference on Monday morning.
That's not to say the firm didn't impress, as its Nokia Lumia 520 and Lumia 720 won over MWC attendees with their top-end specs and affordable price tags.
The Finnish phone maker also revealed the old-school Nokia 105 during its conference, a well-specified candy bar phone that will go on sale for a mere £13.
So, with 7in phablets and £13 phones on show on Monday, it seems that this year's Mobile World Congress is all about showcasing the diversity of mobile phones. Who knows what we'll see on Tuesday. µ

By John A. Huffman, Jr.
Friday, September 01, 2006
1 Corinthians 11:27-29
Whoever, therefore, eats the bread or drinks the cup of the Lord in an unworthy manner will be answerable for the body and blood of the Lord. Examine yourselves, and only then eat of the bread and drink of the cup. For all who eat and drink without discerning the body, eat and drink judgment against themselves.
Question: Do you have any memories of family reunions? I have some going way back to my earliest childhood memories.
One is a dim recollection of a big, old, white farmhouse with huge elm trees towering overhead. Off to the right is an apple orchard. Out back, a hundred yards or so from the house, is a barn. To the left is a fenced field in which some milking cows are grazing. A big circular dirt drive goes up to the house. Off to the right, by the orchard on the other side of the driveway, are parked at least several dozen late 1930s and early 1940s cars. There on the front lawn, gently sloping down to the county road, are picnic tables and blankets spread out on the ground. Close to the house, there are several big, long tables borrowed from a church. Some are loaded with steaming hot casseroles and meat dishes. Another has salads of all sorts. A couple more couldn't hold one more pie, cake, bowl of chopped fruit or a big half of watermelon, if you tried to crowd a place for it. Then there's that table with the beverages — big pitchers of lemonade, iced tea and those pots with coffee.
Picture people, perhaps 150, whose roots were attached to the name Huffman or perhaps Lambert. I can't remember whether it was my grandmother's or my grandfather's side. I do remember it was fun. There was food. There were people of all ages, from the tiniest of squealing babies, to us little kids, to the teenagers (so sophisticated), to the young couples, to the middle-agers, to the grandparents, to the great-grandparents, and even an occasional great-great-grandmother, smelling of lavender. Then my recollections blur. Nothing is left but the warm fuzzies of a youngster's happy memories of a grand family reunion loaded with cousins, second-cousins and second-cousins-once-removed, uncles and aunts, great-uncles and great-aunts, and fun and food and more fun and more food!
The second recollection places me at age 12 in Elkhart, Indiana, at a city park. Harry Truman was finishing his last months in the White House, and Dwight Eisenhower was in the process of being elected to replace him. The cars were a little bit more sophisticated and the environment a bit more of the city. Some of the people were the same, although this time I know it was the Huffman branch. By this time, I was interested in girls. I can remember that pretty little second- or third-cousin who had my same last name and, for some reasons I couldn't really figure out, I wasn't supposed to have a crush on. I periodically cast a furtive glance at her and perhaps only imagined her casting one back at me.

Harry Potter's two closest friends since the first installment in the series, "Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone," also share one of the saga's most strained relationships. Ron Weasley and Hermione Granger may embody predestined puppy love more than any of their Hogwarts classmates, but the bombshell kiss that Ron shares with Lavender Brown in [movie id="307087″]"Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince"[/movie] threatens to drive a permanent wedge between them, even as the darkest threat the series has ever seen descends on their school.
Born into one of Hogwarts' largest families, with five older brothers having enrolled there, Ronald Bilius Weasley's father was committed to the fight against Lord Voldemort as a member of the Order of the Phoenix. Both Hermione and Harry initially encountered Ron during their first-year trip on the Hogwarts Express, and though he would grow closer to both of them over the course of the series, as his immature impulses that early on sparked catty spats with Hermione also came to characterize their relationship.
Rupert Grint may have had one of the most unique entry methods into the now-famous "Harry Potter" cast. The previously inexperienced actor reportedly submitted hip-hop lyrics describing his character, which in turn earned him a screen test. The preteen freshman star was enthralled when he first saw "The Sorcerer's Stone" put together, calling the special effects "wicked" over and over again, in stark contrast to the maturing international star he has since become.
While Grint has matured, however, Ron Weasley's boyish mannerisms and shenanigans have lingered on. Even as Ron blundered, failing to impress Hermione when he invited her to the Yule Ball in "Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire," she remained reservedly charmed by him. Her enduring patience will be tested, though, when Ron latches on to Lavender.
Even if Ron's antics have finally put him in the doghouse with Hermione, his constant screw-ups at Hogwarts have gone a long way to launch Grint's career. Easily one of the most successful acting novices to emerge from Chris Columbus' "Sorcerer's Stone" recruits, Grint earned a role shortly after his part in the first film, alongside Stephen Fry and Paul Giamatti, in the family comedy "Thunderpants." Meanwhile, between his work on two "Potter" films this year, he has still managed to appear in the U.K. release "Cherrybomb," in addition to director Jonathan Lynn's new film "Wild Target," which also features Grint's recently revealed costar in the upcoming "Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows," Bill Nighy.

Texas Tech Closes Weekend With 3-1 Victory Over Montana
Aubree Piper connected on 13 kills to lead Texas Tech to a 3-1 victory Saturday evening.
Sept. 8, 2012
Box Score | Notes | Postgame Recap
MISSOULA, Mont. - Take away one set and Don Flora says he received the type of effort he wanted in Texas Tech's finale of the Best Western Grant Creek Inn Invitational.
Backed by a season-high .368 hitting percentage, Texas Tech took the opening lead and then overcame a devastating second-set loss en route to drop Montana, 3-1 (25-15, 11-25, 25-19, 25-15), Saturday evening at the West Auxiliary Gym.
"Montana is a team that has a lot of options and defends really well," Tech head coach Don Flora said. "They fly around and made us work really hard to earn the victory. I was proud in how we responded from the loss in the second and came back to take control of the match."
Aubree Piper and Emily Ehrle led the Red Raiders (10-1) with 13 kills each while Meghan Stacy added 12 of her own. All three attackers hit near .300 for the match with Piper leading the group with a .500 average followed by Stacy's .370 clip and then Ehrle at a .294 mark.
The Red Raiders hit over .300 in the first and third frames before responding with a .600 clip in the fourth which marked Tech's highest percentage in a set this season.
Tech's accuracy over the final two frames came in handy after a devastating 25-11 loss in the second, Tech's worse margin of defeat in a set this season. The Red Raiders connected on just eight kills in the frame and received some help thanks to two Montana (2-7) service errors.
"I like the pieces to puzzle with this team," said Flora, who improved to 24-3 in his Tech tenure against non-conference opponents. "I think 10-1 shows that we've earned some tough wins. We've played some tough teams to make us go get some wins and tonight was another example of that."
Emily Ruetter paced the Tech offense with 46 assists and six digs from the setter position. Rachel Brummitt also added a match-high 19 digs from the back row.
Paige Branstiter connected on 12 kills to lead the Montana offense that hit .254 as a team. Brooke Bray and Kelsey Schile also added 10 for the Grizzlies while Kortney James recorded 36 assists.
Tech finished second in the four-team format as Towson also finished 2-1 on the weekend and claimed the tournament title due to the head-to-head tiebreaker with the Red Raiders.
Towson swept the Red Raiders in straight sets Friday but fell to Montana Saturday afternoon before rallying to defeat Furman in the finale. Furman and Montana both finished 1-2 overall.
The Red Raiders return to the road next weekend at the Rice Invitational where Tech will face Houston Baptist, Cal State Northridge and the host Owls in the two-day tournament that begins Friday.

TUSCALOOSA, Ala. - The Alabama football team returned outdoors to the Thomas-Drew Practice Fields for a two hour practice in shells, Wednesday afternoon, as the Crimson Tide continues preparation for its season opener against Kent State.
The opener will mark the first meeting between Alabama and Kent State, the alma mater of Tide head coach Nick Saban. Alabama has won nine season openers in a row and all four under Saban.
"Players and coaches alike are all looking forward to Saturday's game," Saban said. "I am sure our fans will provide a tremendous atmosphere.
