Alright so I'm using nginx to forward communication to and from my server and clients. My server receives the communication via port 6543, and nginx forwards it to that port on that server (from port 80 on the nginx proxy server)
It works fine if I enter
http://mydomain.com/directory/ <- note the trailing slash
but if i enter
http://mydomain.com/directory <- no trailing slash
it becomes
http://mydomain.com:6543/directory/ which of course doesn't work, because the nginx server isn't expecting anything on that port.
I can't figure out how to fix this. Help?

Rated 5 / 5 stars
My kind of music
Outstanding! As many people have mentioned, sounds like early Marilyn Manson, which is great, I love this kind of music! =)
Rated 5 / 5 stars
but not grunge...at the begginig it reminded quite doom metal,but i think it is alternative
Rated 4.5 / 5 stars
pretty good but i don't think this song is grunge sounds more like progressive rock perhaps? or maybe if you remove a little bit of distortion ('cause the distortion sound good but in the solo i don't think so) could sound much better and you would have a 10 song right here ;)
Rated 5 / 5 stars
The Next Marilyn Manson?
Nice, so good... the vocals perfect, the beat perfect, the song PERFECT!
Rated 5 / 5 stars
Let me guess...
...you're a Marilyn Manson fan?
Don't take that as an insult, it's a good thing that the vocals are kind of compressed. It makes the song sound better, actually.

David J. Phillip, File, Associated Press
BERKELEY, Calif. — California hired Tennessee's Cuonzo Martin as its coach Tuesday, charging him with taking over another program after a successful run by his predecessor.
Martin replaces Mike Montgomery, who retired last month after six seasons in Berkeley. Martin went 63-41 in three seasons at Tennessee, including a 24-13 mark and an appearance in the regional semifinals of the NCAA tournament this season. He also was previously the coach at Missouri State.
Martin was scheduled to be introduced at Cal during a news conference Tuesday afternoon.
He takes over for one of the most successful college coaches in the history of the San Francisco Bay Area. Montgomery finished his career with a 677-317 record, having also spent 18 years at Stanford and eight at Montana. Montgomery also had two disappointing seasons as head coach of the NBA's Golden State Warriors between his stints at Stanford and Cal.
Replacing a revered coach is nothing new for Martin.
Martin, 42, took over a Tennessee program under NCAA investigation in 2011 and has averaged 21 wins per year. But, at times, he struggled to escape the shadow of former coach Bruce Pearl, who led the Volunteers to NCAA tournament appearances in each of his six years on the job.
Tennessee athletic director Dave Hart said Martin's departure came as a surprise.
"I did not know Cuonzo was involved in the California job until this morning," Hart said. "We did have a conversation. He was very emotional. The bottom line is he said in his heart he believed this was best for (him) and his family."
He said it was a tough year for Martin, calling him "an outstanding person" and a "terrific role model." He said he wishes Martin "nothing but success" at Cal.
When Tennessee was struggling earlier this season, disgruntled fans started an online petition to bring back Pearl, who has since been hired by Auburn. Martin began to silence his critics when Tennessee revived its season by winning eight of nine games before falling 73-71 to Michigan in the Midwest Regional semifinals.
Martin also spoke with Marquette about its coaching vacancy a few weeks ago, but he pulled his name from consideration. Hart said soon afterward that the university was reworking Martin's contract.
Martin also released a statement through the university on April 1 reaffirming his position at Tennessee.
"Tennessee is where I want to be," the coach said. "That has never changed."
Hart said he did not believe Martin left because of money. Martin was making $1.35 million per year, which ranked him in the bottom half of Southeastern Conference coaches, but Hart said Tennessee offered him a two-year extension worth $1.8 million per year.
Martin previously served as coach at Missouri State, going 61-41 in three seasons, including win totals of 24 and 26 in his final two seasons. In 2010-11, Martin guided Missouri State to the regular-season Missouri Valley championship and was named the conference's Coach of the Year.
As a player, Martin earned first-team All-Big Ten honors in 1995 at Purdue when he averaged 18.4 points per game and made 91 3-pointers. After playing two seasons in the NBA, he served on the staff at his alma mater from 2000-08 — first as an assistant coach and in his final year as associate head coach.

Lady Bulldogs remain perfect
A pleasant surprise for New Albany fans has been the recent play of the girls basketball team. Currently 8-0 with two games until division play, the Lady Bulldogs have performed well with a young team. Their most recent win came at Corinth last Tuesday, 70-60.
Corinth held a two-point lead after the first quarter, and led by one at the half. The Lady Bulldogs outscored Corinth in the third to take the lead and pick up their eighth win.
"We're excited about it," head coach John Stroud said of the Lady Dawgs undefeated record. "It's a big achievement to be undefeated in December, but we're just taking it one game at a time. Each one is just another game. It's very positive for us to be doing so well with such a young team, and it's great because we've had different girls step up each game and perform well."
Kabrina Lucas led the Lady Dawgs with 19 on the night, while Nyambi Penson followed with 17. Despite having such a young team – starting three sophomores and an eighth grader – Stroud has not had a problem keeping his team focused.
"They're a good group and they know each game is important," Stroud explained. "They're staying focused, but they're excited. They have had a good effort playing so far this season, and it hasn't been hard to keep them focused. They understand the importance of each game and it's been fun."
Stroud has been most impressed with how the youth of the team have performed so far, as well as the shooting of the team overall.
"We're shooting well right now, which is a surprise, but overall we have a great attitude," Stroud said. "I'm most pleased with the play of our young players right now."
One player in particular that has stood out is eighth grader Jazmine Spears. Spears has been a constant high scorer for the Lady Dawgs, and has performed well beyond her age.
"It's been a pleasant surprise to see how Jazmine has performed, and she is playing well against 17 and 18 year-olds," Stroud said. "She has good hands and good instinct. She's always in the right place at the right time, and those types of things are hard to coach. She has a lot of good skills and I know she has a bright future ahead of her so long as she stays focused and continues to listen to her parents and her coach."
Despite the good start, there are still some areas Stroud would like to work on, especially heading into division play next week when New Albany will host Tishomingo County.
"Rebounding is still an issue for us, as well as turnovers, so we would like to see some improvement there. We're turning the ball over more than we should be, so that's something to work on.We've been shooting pretty well, but we could be better in that area also," Stroud said.
The Lady Dawgs will be on the road at Ripley on Tuesday and at Lafayette next Monday night before opening divisional play versus Tishomingo County on December 12.

AbstractWe propose a Yb:SFAP laser system, using a novel resonator scheme, that will provide over 1 J per pulse output at 100 Hz at high efficiency, in a package far more compact, lower mass and efficient that conventional systems. The high-pulse-energy poweroscillator architecture is especially suited to space platforms where weight, volume, cooling and efficiency are particularly important. The proposed system will enable a 1 J/pulse 100 Hz system with efficiency and compactness far exceeding conventional systems. The efficiency and cost advantages of the Yb:SFAP system together are anticipated to break through the present cost barriers todiode-pumped solid-state lasers in commercial materials processing systems .

A recent JRC co-authored paper provides ecological water quality targets for lakes in Europe. The study provides an ecology-based definition for the "good" status of lake waters, based on criteria including the low probability of occurrence of cyanobacteria (blue-green algae) blooms, the low probability of a significant decline in macrophytes (aquatic plants that provide oxygen, cover and food for fish), and clear water. Since eutrophication is the most important pressure and one of the main causes of the less than 'good' ecological status of 44% of European lakes, the scientists established target values for chlorophyll a, which is a metric widely used to measure the impact of eutrophication in lakes. To determine these values for the two most common lake types in lowland Central Europe, they collected data from more than 400 lakes (some of which were sampled over several years) from nine Central European countries. They defined the 'good-moderate' status boundaries of chlorophyll a for moderately deep lakes (mean depth 3-15 m) and for shallow lakes (mean depth below 3 m) in Central Europe, based on ecological concepts and evaluation of risks of human impact. They recommend that this approach could be more widely used for other water body types and for biomonitoring schemes in other types of ecosystems.
Mainly caused by the presence in the water of substances such as nitrates and phosphates from fertilisers or sewage, eutrophication has severe consequences on the environment and water supply. Its effects include a great increase of phytoplankton in response to increased levels of nutrients and a depletion of oxygen in the water, causing a reduction in specific fish and other animals or an increase in population that negatively affects other species.
The European Water Framework Directive commits European Union Member States to achieve "good ecological status" for all waters by 2015. The definition of 'good status' is therefore a critical step to establishing river basin management plans while avoiding possible variations of interpretation.
Human impact on lakes degrades their ecological status. Eutrophication is the enrichment of an ecosystem with chemical nutrients – such as nitrogen and phosphorus – through fertilizers or sewage, which drives excessive growth of algae. It is one of the main causes of impairment of freshwater ecosystems and the main culprit for the ecological deterioration of 44% of European lakes. The effects of eutrophication include a great increase of phytoplankton in response to increased levels of nutrients and a depletion of oxygen in the water, causing a reduction in certain fish and other animals or an increase in population that negatively affects other species.

Ex-UBS Trader Kweku Adoboli's E-Mail to Accountant: Full Text
Below is the text of an e-mail former UBS AG trader Kweku Adoboli sent to bank accountant William Steward on Sept. 14, 2011, describing how he accrued trading losses.
The e-mail was read out by prosecutor Sasha Wass at Adoboli's fraud trial in London today.
The subject line for the e-mail, sent from Adoboli's home e-mail account, was: "An explanation of my trades."
Dear Will,
It is with great stress that I write this mail. First of all the ETF (Exchange Traded Funds) trades that you see on the ledger are not trades that I have done with a counterparty as I previously described.
I used the bookings as a way to suppress the PnL losses that I have accrued through off-book trades that I made. Those trades were previously profit making, became loss making as the market sold off aggressively though the aggressive sell-off days of July and early August.
Initially, I had been short futures through June and those lost money when the first Greek confidence vote went through in mid-June. In order to try and make the money back I flipped the trade long through the rally.
Although I had a couple of opportunities to unwind the long trade for a negligible loss, I did not move quickly enough for the market weakness on the back of the first back macro data and then an escalation Eurozone crisis cost me the losses you will see when the ETF bookings are cancelled. The aim had been to try and make the money back before the September expiry date came through but I clearly failed.
These are still live trades on the book that will need to be unwound. Namely a short position in DAX futures [which had been rolled to December expiry] and a short position in S and P 500 futures that are due to expire on Friday.
I have now left the office for the sake of discretion. I will need to come back in to discuss the positions and explain face to face, but for reasons that are obvious, I did not think it wise to stay on the desk this afternoon.
I will expect that questions will be asked as to why nobody else was aware of these trades. The reality is that I have always maintained that these were EFP trades to the member of my team, BUC, trade support and John Di Bacco (Adoboli's manager).
I take full responsibility for my actions and the stilt storm that will now ensue. I am deeply sorry to have left this mess for everyone and to have put my bank and my colleagues at risk.
Thanks, Kweku.

I've recently upgraded to the Azure 2.1 SDK, and I'm now encountering a problem with part of my
web.config in a web role when running on the compute emulator. My
web.config contains this:
<location path="api">
<access sslFlags="Ssl, SslRequireCert, SslNegotiateCert" />
<allow users="*" />
I need this because everything under the
/api/ path requires clients to authenticate by providing client-side certificates over HTTPS.
By default, IIS is configured not to allow you to do this - the
<access> element under
system.webServer/security is locked by default. So I've always had a startup task that contains this:
SET APPCMD=%windir%\system32\inetsrv\appcmd.exe
SET APPCMD="%ProgramFiles%\IIS Express\appcmd.exe"
%APPCMD% unlock config /section:system.webServer/security/access
Without that, you would get a 500.19 error. Up until recently, this startup task has always successfully prevented that error, enabling my SSL configuration to work.
But it's no longer working, and as far as I can tell, this happened when I switched to the 2.1 SDK. Everything else in this web role works by the way - it's only when I try to access the services under the
/api/ path to which the SSL configuration settings apply that I get an error. And it's a 500.19. (The 500 is 'internal server error' of course, but the .19 signifies that it's a configuration error.)
As far as I can tell, it's happening because the attempt to unlock this configuration section is no longer working. The reason I say that is that if I find the
applicationHost.config file that the Azure emulator creates (in
C:\Users\<user>\AppData\Local\dftmp\Resources\<some random guid>\temp\temp\RoleTemp) and I manually edit it, replacing the
Deny for the
security element with an
Allow, I stop getting the error, and can successfully use the services that require client certificates.
That's no use as a workaround of course - this
applicationHost.config is regenerated each time you run the app in the emulator (and the exact location changes each time). I need some way to reliably unlock this configuration section automatically each time I debug the application locally. That's what
appcmd.exe is supposed to do, but it seems to have stopped working.
It did occur to me that the problem might be that it's picking up the IIS version of
appcmd.exe, even though the Azure SDK now uses IIS express. I'm not sure if they're different programs, so I tried adding this at the end of my startup command:
"%ProgramFiles%\IIS Express\appcmd.exe" unlock config /section:system.webServer/security/access
This explicitly runs the IIS Express copy. But it doesn't seem to make any difference.
The startup task is definitely running, before anyone asks. In the same folder as the
applicationHost.config, I see a
WaHostBootstrapper.log file, and it contains (amongst other things) these lines:
[00025156:00018324, 2013/08/30, 22:15:03.033, INFO ] Executing Startup Task type=0 rolemodule=(null) cmd="c:\dev\mm\DevInt\src\Mm.Cloud\csx\Debug\roles\Mm.Web\approot\bin\Startup\EnableClientCerts.cmd"
[00025156:00018324, 2013/08/30, 22:15:03.034, INFO ] Executing "c:\dev\mm\DevInt\src\Mm.Cloud\csx\Debug\roles\Mm.Web\approot\bin\Startup\EnableClientCerts.cmd" .
[00025156:00018324, 2013/08/30, 22:15:03.221, INFO ] Program "c:\dev\mm\DevInt\src\Mm.Cloud\csx\Debug\roles\Mm.Web\approot\bin\Startup\EnableClientCerts.cmd" exited with 0. Working Directory = c:\dev\mm\DevInt\src\Mm.Cloud\csx\Debug\roles\Mm.Web\approot\bin
This indicates that my
EnableClientCerts.cmd (the script that calls
appcmd.exe) ran without error.
I'm not entirely clear on how
appcmd.exe knows which particular web site it's supposed to be configuring. There are several - I've got IIS proper on this box, and there's also a non-Azure-related IIS Express site configured. Is it possible that it's failing to configure the correct target?
Also, I see a few of this sort of error in the
[00025156:00018324, 2013/08/30, 22:15:03.033, ERROR] <- WapGetEnvironmentVariable=0x800700cb
Could that be related?
Is there something missing from my script for unlocking the configuration section?

Hot answers tagged oauth
The implicit flow uses the url https://stackexchange.com/oauth/dialog, not https://stackexchange.com/oauth. You should just need to change the url, otherwise that looks correct.
The OAuth domain name is the domain name that will be used to restrict the value of the redirect_uri parameter when authenticating from your application. This is done as a security precaution to prevent others from using your API key and redirecting to a domain name that does not match the one specified in the registration form. The API documentation page ...
The fix for me was unchecking "Enable Client Side OAuth Flow"
You can register apps that aren't web apps. This page: http://api.stackexchange.com/docs/authentication, gives details for registering a Desktop Application. A mobile phone app comes under the category of a desktop application. You should use the implicit flow, so check the box at the bottom of registration form, and for the OAuth domain use: ...
Yes, I always get 86399 too. And, no, you can't specify an interval other than no_expiry. But you can call /access-tokens/{accessTokens}/invalidateDoc at whatever interval you wish. So, for less user annoyance, set no_expiry but then call /invalidate every, say, 8 days, for example.
This was fixed in the latest deploy.
We moved from nginx to HAProxy for our SSL provider this weekend as part of a larger rollout. In the move, we shifted our header checks to the now de-facto standard SSL protocol header. While I thought I fixed all the apps relying on the old header and standardized everything internally, stackexchange.com was left out and thought your auth requests weren't ...
Yes, each time you invoke stackexchange.com/oauth/ you will get a fresh access token, even though old ones may still be valid. For example: Go to /me/inboxLivedoc and hit Get Token twice, recording the token value each time (It will always be different). Then go to /access-tokens/{accessTokens}Livedoc and check each token. They will both still be valid! (...
The token does not appear because of the way urllib2 handles the redirect. I am not familiar with the details so I won't elaborate here. The solution is to catch the 302 before the urllib2 handles the redirect. This can be done by sub-classing the urllib2.HTTPRedirectHandler to get the redirect with its hashtag and token. Here is a short example of ...
This is status-bydesign. You'll note on the authentication documentation: Desktop applications cannot participate directly in OAuth 2.0 flows, however the embeddable browser controls available in most frameworks make it possible to work around this limitation. Desktop applications should use the implicit client-side flow, hosting the process ...
Well, my bad - I forgot to set the Content-Type header. Fixed code snippet: def oauth_explicit_two(client_id, client_secret, code, redirect_uri): params = {'client_id': client_id, 'client_secret': client_secret, 'code': code, 'redirect_uri': redirect_uri} headers = {'Content-Type': 'application/x-www-form-urlencoded'} # <--- ...
I found answer myself and posted in my blog post StackAlert Firefox Extension error key is not valid for passed access_token Solution in brief When you remove the application from StackExchange apps, and even after uninstalling the extension from Firefox, you will still have traces of that extension in Firefox. To make this extension work again, we have ...
Yes, calls to /access-tokens/{accessTokens} use API quota. You can see that by repeatedly running /2.2/access-tokens/XBWL0stf*YIOCl7WpJHqYA)) for example. With each call, the quota_remaining value will decrease. However, there is no reason that the token check has to use the same key as your main app. The token check and your main app would then use ...
In a nutshell and don't know ask me how to write this in C#: That first "500 error" page is normal. You must display that to the user and the user must approve. When the user approves, the page will redirect to a page (nominally stackexchange.com/oauth/login_success) with the access_token in the URL parameters. For example: https://stackexchange.com/...
A fix for this has been deployed. For some people it looks like communication with Stack Auth (for global login) was breaking down, causing the final redirect to not happen. I've slapped a timeout on the attempt to communicate with Stack Auth, after which we give up and do the final redirect anyway. Users so affected won't get global login sessions (...
If a user has any authorized applications, the apps tab appears on their profile pages. From the page linked a user can see their authorized applications, and de-authorize any of them. That link probably won't be conditionally displayed forever, but we haven't got anything to show in the "emtpy" case just yet.

I've been programming for most of my life, since I got my hands on a Casio Pocket Computer circa 1986.
Since then I have coded in both assembly and Basic for the TRS80, the Commodore 64/128, an HP48, and every single iteration of the x86 family since the 8088.
I have worked with a multitude of languages from assembly (65xx, z80, x86, Saturn, etc...), c/c++, java, php, basic, javascript and even a couple of esoteric languages such as brainfuck. That, of course, is meaningless unless you are able to create something useful with whatever language you use, and that's what I have tried do since I started programming.

Soldier Zero
Good Soldier Zero has legendary comic book writer and creator, Stan Lee, guiding the series! Stuart Trautmann (Soldier Zero) is a hero that we can all relate to. He's a guy that lost the ability to walk, due to a war in Afghanistan. We can see a whole bunch of relatable characters that Stan Lee created over the years he's been a writer. For example, Peter Parker, the Amazing Spider-Man. He was a kid that was picked on by the bullies and was the nerd kid in the class. He eventually got the power to change his outward appearance and could get back at his tormentors. However, he learned that he had to use his power with the utmost responsibility, and had to make all of the hard sacrifices to take up the road as a hero. Stuart Trautmann is almost the same as Spider-Man. Stuart Trautmann has a disability, however he doesn't let that disability get the better of him. That is really what it means to be a hero.
Throughout Stuart's day-to-day life, he has to deal with all sorts of trouble and adventure. For example, when Stuart was going to enter a mini market, he found out that wheelchair's aren't allowed in that building. When he met a young lady who was also in a wheelchair, she decided to crawl into the store, instead of letting her disability stop her from entering. So by seeing this, Stuart isn't the only one who has it tough. Another example is with his brother. James is just trying to look out for Stuart, so when some kids whisper something to each other, James takes it upon himself to stop them. The kids were not causing any harm, however they just didn't understand what it was like to be in a wheelchair. So really, it's just another way of people showing a relation to Stuart, but in their own unique way.
Trautmann is a guy that wants a second chance at life. His disability gets him mocked by others, and the people who help him, makes Stuart feel helpless. Before the accident, Trautmann was a captain of the army. He lost the ability to walk when his platoon ran over a land mine. He found out later that his lower torso is separated from the connection with his spine. Trautmann continues his life as a TA in astronomy. The alien parasite called Soldier Zero on the other hand, is a super high-tech guardian of the galaxy. While it's still just issue 1 into the series, guessing is always exceptional in a new story. However, when the alien technology falls out of Earth's orbit, and onto the building where Stuart Tratmann was talking with his date. Stuart was going to get crushed and so was she, while the alien technology was about to die from being shot by an enemy ship, fate played its hand, and joined both to become Soldier Zero!

A Dunedin man is concerned Otago residents are not aware of a
fault off the coast which could have an impact as great as
the Alpine Fault in an earthquake.
Otago is one of the least seismically active areas in the
country, so what is the actual risk that an earthquake will
topple the Dunedin Courthouse tower?
More than 50,000 people from Otago dropped to the floor and
sheltered under desks and tables as part of yesterday's
national "ShakeOut" earthquake drill, with organisers hailing
it as a success.
Research published in June suggests a one-in-three chance
of a magnitude 8 earthquake on the Alpine Fault sometime in
the next 50 years. Bruce Munro spoke to scientists, civil
defence staff and couples living in Dunedin, Queenstown and
on the Maniototo to create this fictionalised account of how
we might be affected if it happens this Wednesday.
Otago councils have agreed to investigate a joint approach to
deal with earthquake-prone buildings.
Dunedin's emergency response managers will take the
opportunity during New Zealand's first nationwide earthquake
drill to practise, in theory, how they would respond to an
earthquake emergency in the city.
A series of earthquakes over magnitude 5.0 has rattled the
Kermadec Islands over the weekend.
Although the odds of a major earthquake hitting Dunedin soon
are relatively low, citizens "should not be complacent",
geologist Prof Richard Norris warned yesterday.
A 4.8 magnitude aftershock has rattled Christchurch this
Owners of Dunedin buildings have two years from next July to
complete earthquake assessments, and work at a significant
cost is expected to be uncovered.

I wish I could buy these by the millions. They are indispensible to a small restaurant for storage and are the most affordable way to keeping prep items fresh.
Elise M. from backwater Posted on 07/13/2016
These containers are useful for soups, condiments, and sauces. When used for heating, it heats evenly and stays durable, without compromising its strength. Will be buying again.
D'Amber A. from The Smokin' Burrito Posted on 05/26/2016
These will become a staple for me. I wasn't sure if I needed microwavable, but once I had them I REALLY appreciated being able to ladle piping hot food straight inside. They are disposable, but are sturdy enough to reuse a few times if desired.
Menachem H. Posted on 04/30/2016
These deli containers are so useful. Whether for storing leftovers, extra ingredients, etc, they are great to have on hand. I appreciate that they are clear, so I can see exactly what is in the container. They are large and the opening is nice and wide. The fact that they are microwavable is a bonus. I have been using them to store homemade broths and soups and I find them to be very sturdy.
Sonia U. Posted on 01/18/2016
Purchased a small quantity to try these out. We found them to be too flimsy for our purposes of making/freezing stew. They cracked too easily from normal handling and several of the containers were actually cracked when they arrived - but it was too much trouble to deal with asking for replacements as we didn't like them anyway. We also found the lids difficult to work with and to get onto the container. We used them all but ordered a different product from webrestaurant.com when these were all gone and are much happier with the other product.
Darlene S. Posted on 01/12/2016
Thank you for the review, Darlene! We are sorry you did not like these containers. Instead, we recommend these 32 oz. Microwavable Translucent Plastic Deli Containers.

Easy to store, great to have on hand and a single sized lid fits multple sized containers. Worth every penny.
Melodie G. from Melodie Garner Posted on 12/10/2015
I purchased these to store sugar scrub and other bath and body formulas. Works great for storing larger quantities of lotion, sugar scrub, and more. Also wonderful for in the kitchen.
Robin V. from Desert Moon Bath & Body Posted on 10/25/2015
I love this sturdy and secure container for when I make huge batches of soups and stews. I also use it for cookie dough batches.
Chelsey G. from Dog Gone Good Time Posted on 10/19/2015
the backbone of a lot of kitchens with a nice price to match. these are kind of thin so you do not get as many uses out fo them as other quart containers but great price!
Eric H. Posted on 09/13/2015
these Choice brand containers are great, and we use them daily in our deli and cafe. We package our fresh salads for retail and the customers love them.

Alicia B. from Cakes by Leece Posted on 02/11/2015
These containers were great for soups our classroom café made to sell. They were great for 6-8 serving. They heated up well in the microwave. I will buy them again for our school project.
Kelly M. from Jay High School Posted on 11/18/2014
We use these for shipping our feeders insects. They work perfect and for the price they can't be beat. We were buying them from a local store and paying double the price. These have save us about .20 each order and we ship out 30-40 orders a week so the savings have added up quick.
William M. Posted on 11/12/2014
We prefer to use these for all of our dressings, sauces, etc. it makes it way easier to refill squirt bottles and store in our coolers.
Jason t. Posted on 08/09/2014
We use these deli containers throughout our entire bakery! Our kitchen uses these containers to store prepped and weighed items, extra egg yolks/whites, and butter. They're the perfect size to package up our leftover soup for the local soup kitchen. I just wish they were a little sturdier. If you're not gentle pushing the lid on, the container may collapse.
Atlantic B. from Atlantic Baking Company Posted on 07/23/2014
This tall container holds a generous serving for two of my soups and stir-fries, or four servings of rice. I love that it is microwave-safe.
Kathleen M. from Dinner On The Spot Posted on 08/17/2013
I was looking for a low cost container for my homemade salsa and this container with lid was exactly what I needed and it works great!
Andrew S. Posted on 10/02/2012
These are good for both hot and cold foods. We pack cold salads and hot soups in these. They stand up well both in the freezer and in the microwave.
Tabitha L. Posted on 05/14/2012
I use these Containers/lids for everything, works great even in the microwave. lids fit perfect. Not a lot more then I can say about these items. Solid product and the the WEBstaurant Store makes it EZ.
Jason R. from Free World Skates Posted on 03/12/2012
I used this container to bring Tabbouli to my friends house and they worked wonderfully. The tabbouli looked great in the container and did not spill.
Natalie A. Posted on 11/16/2011
Fantastic containers for any kitchen! Great for storing leftovers and so much more! Excellent for fruits, pastas, sauces, stocks and even soups!! Great price and easy to store!
Eric K. Posted on 05/28/2011
I use whole bunch of deli containers but this 2-pound deli container is one of the prefered ones. It is very useful for storing large batches of salads, vegetables and soups. This 2-pound container is twice the height that of the 1-pound container, so when you stack a bunch of containers in the fridge, they all fit nice.

MOBILE, Ala. (AP) - Mobile police say a woman was killed in a traffic accident involving a police officer, who suffered a minor injury.
Corporal Charles Bagsby Junior said Tuesday a preliminary investigation shows that 54-year-old Patricia Layton Smith, driving a Jeep Cherokee, collided with 23-year-old Van Eric Petersons's patrol car at the intersections of Government Blvd. and Pleasant Valley Road.
The accident occurred at about 7 p.m. Monday. The officer, who was responding to a call, suffered minor injuries and was treated and released at USA Medical Center.
The wreck is under investigation.
Bagsby said the officer was eastbound on Government Boulevard when the woman's vehicle apparently turned from a parallel service road into the patrol car's path.

Local retiree plans 182-mile bicycle ride
Published: Saturday, March 24, 2007 at 6:01 a.m.
Last Modified: Friday, March 23, 2007 at 11:52 p.m.
HOUMA -- When most people think about retirement, they picture someone relaxing on a swing or playing with their grandchildren. Clayton Duplantis of Houma is celebrating his retirement in a different way.
Duplantis, who will turn 66 next month, plans to participate in the BP MS 150, a 182-mile bicycle tour April 21-22.
The British Petroleum-sponsored tour will donate 83 cents of every dollar raised to fight multiple sclerosis, a disease of the nervous system. The two-day tour begins in Houston and ends in Austin, Texas.
"Im doing this right after Im scheduled to retire from my job," Duplantis said.
According to Duplantis, more than 13,000 riders have signed up to ride in the tour.
Duplantis training regime has included riding his bicycle more than 100 miles per week. He has even spent time in the hills outside Houston where his daughter lives preparing for the tour.
"Ive rode my bike for the last 20 years," Duplantis said. "It hasnt been until the last three or four years that Ive really become active about it."
Duplantis said hes also involved in the Bayou Country Cyclist Club. The club, which was founded in 1993, is a nonprofit organization based in Houma that raises money for different local charities.
On April 15, the club will hold its 12th annual Cruisin on the Bayou run at Thibodauxs Peltier Park to benefit the McMains Childrens Development Center in Baton Rouge. The center is dedicated to assisting children with cerebral palsy and other disabilities.
"These type of clubs are good things for our community," Duplantis said. "The race Im riding in next month (BP MS 150) is all about giving back, and so is the event on April 15."
For information about the Bayou Country Cyclist Club, visit http://bcc.homeip.net:82/bike/index.asp or call 868-2582.
