I live in Canada near the Vermont border. My interests are handgun shooting (Glock,Browning Sig and H&K) + Trap (Browning Citori) + bow shooting and hunting!... a lot of things as you can see. I am interested in legal questions (as a lawyer myself for the Quebec government's workmen's compensation board)

BigL, AP, and Pierre welcome to THR!
@BigL - Swing on by and share your handgun knowledge with us in any of the three handgun sub-forums. Over in the shotguns forum you'll find a wealth of knowledge from Moderator Dave McCraken, and many seaoned veteran members. The stickies up top are full of good info.
@APWINNER - We'll go easy on ya, and if anyone is too hard on you let a Mod know; THR is here for shooters of all experience levels to learn and teach one another. It's great to hear that you're taking your son to the range and that you're getting your CCW. For more S&W Sigma thoughts take a look at this recent thread http://www.thehighroad.org/showthread.php?t=259392.
@Pierre - Great to see yet another international THR member. Many US members here are interested in gun laws around the world, particularly in our neighboring countries to the north & south. No doubt it will be great to hear about Canadian gun law from someone who works within the legal system there. The Legal & Political sub-forum should provide you plenty of stimulating conversation on the legal side of things. Of course the shotguns and handguns sub-forums will cater to those interests of yours, and if you scroll down a bit further you'll find the hunting sub-forum.
Again welcome to THR folks, and let us know what we can do to make your stay here more enjoyable.

Another new guy
Hello to everybody
I'm Bill, currently living in central Arkansas with my wife and three of our five kids. I retired from the USAF in '93 and have been kinda between jobs since '03. I started my military career in the US Army. Three years as Armored Recon in 1st platoon, G Troop 2/3 ACR. It was a trip shooting all the big guns cannons, missiles, Ma Duece, m-60, 16s, and fun/highly dangerous stuff. Looking back, I'm thankful there were no wars going on. 3rd ACR was one of the first units in to flatten Saddem's sandbox in Desert shield/Dersert Storm just a few years later. After the Army, I didn't so much as handle a weapon for thirteen years.
Anyway, one day I bought a Winchester 9422, and then inherited Dad's Ruger P-85, and then I bought a S&W 629 Classic, and after that a Ruger Mark II, and in September last year a NIB SIG P220R. That's when I began hanging around gun forums. There's so much to learn about guns or just about anything else I can think of. Good people and good discussion with the inevitable flare-ups (credit Pink Floyd, modified). It's facinating (credit Mr. Spock) that I always learn something when I visit this site, SIG Forum, Glock Talk, PDO, NRA/ILA and others.
Thanks to the creators, owners, and mod's for providing this place and to all the members for sharing your knowledge and experience with each other and with us newbies.

Hello all. My primary interest is historical fencing, but I can't resist any form of martial arts, or any weapons, firearms being only the latest and greatest. I have none at the moment, due to lack of money, and living in CA. Even worse, my next residence may be in NYC

New to THR.org, not to the life
Hello all, I'm pretty much from all over the western U.S. I was just drawn to this and several other forum sites by the recent Jim Zumbo screw-up, and am glad I got introduced to all of you!
I am a self confessed gun nut since my earliest childhood and it appears to have come honestly with me looking at my ancestors.
I love shooting at all levels, plinking, serious target competition, hunting, defensive competitions, anything that includes a gun of any style. My passion seems to be for semi-autos as that is what I mostly own, from a very low serial number Rem 740 in .30-06, to my 1100s, to my newest pride and joy-- a Benelli Super Black Eagle II ComforTech--my first BLACK shotgun. For handgunning I prefer a .40 Glock or my Ruger .357 or even the old High Standard .22 target pistol. (still a tack driver) I have had occasion to develop experience with an M-16 and opportunity, in the same vein, to play with an AK-47 some as well as an UZI.
I am passionate about Long Range shooting, whether target, hunting or more serious application. The uninformed anti gun people better hope they never succeed in really irritating our legitimate, law-abiding, gun owning population for to many of us defending our country's constitution and freedom is more important than kneeling before their foolish legislation.
I do swap hunting opportunities with others from different areas, so if you are interested, drop me a note.

Hi. I'm interested in pistols, rifles and pretty much all guns. I like shooting gophers and hunting deer and am interested in target shooting as well.

Hello everyone.
I am from southeastern Alabama. I enjoy target shooting with military surplus. Also I enjoy learning about military history from the American Civil War to the present day.
My main items are of WW2, both American and German, and post war German. I don't consider myself an expert, but I look forward to helping out on anything I can.
Persently I am collecting Bundeswehr items and on my first post a member steered me right to where I needed to go.
Not much else, except I am old and can't half see, and shoot mostly by sense of smell.

New guy from Cincinnati
Hi, new guy here. i'm a 43 yr old, married father of 2. My son is almost 16, my daughter almost 7. 20yr cop, Sgt. for the last 7. I live and work in a busy northern suburb of Cincinnati. I've been a "gun nut" forever. Only own one or two at a time, but have owned about 25 over the years. Currently I am issued a Beretta 92FS 9mm, carry a Sig P225 off duty (as soon as it comes back from the custom work). I have a .30cal M1 carbine that I dressed up with a Choate folding stock, my only black rifle as such. Enough for now, more with future posts.

Hi everyone, i've been surfing your forum for a few days picking up as much info as i could on pistols. I'm 24 years old and have never owned a firearm. I've always wanted to, but my family has never owned guns. I'm trying to research as much info as a can so i purchase the firearm i want and can use properly. I also plan to get my ccl to exercise my rights as a citizen. I appreciate forums like this and hope to learn a lot of information.

I am a 28 year old meteorologist in the USAF. I have been into guns since my grandfather bought me my first .22 single shot rifle. I still shoot it on occasion. Currently, my collection is kind of sad:
.22 single shot rifle mentioned above
.25 Auto forgot the brand but it's junk
.32 Auto CZ-50 also kind of junky
.32 (not .38) Colt Detective Special revolver pre 1966 blue
.357 Mag. S&W Combat Magnum Model 586 nickel with a 6" barrel- all stock
My plan over the next few years is to beef up my collection and upgrade my .357 with a new barrel, etc. I hope to get some help from you guys on this.

Hi folks. Just like it says, I'm bensdad. I'm a gun nut. got a dozen or so assorted rifles, a dozen or so assorted shotguns and four handguns. Came to firearms late in life (I'm now 40) so adding to the family as fast as my modest income will allow.
I read the thread on the puke ray. Laughed my butt off... had to join. You guys are too funny. Over on TFL, I'm "robc", but that was taken here. Hope I can keep it strait. You got cooler smilies.

I agree. Creative smilie use is an art.
(Even if some of the more fuddy duddy adults
may frown on their use. Just ignore them. )
(Not to mention creative use of bold, underline, italics,
Here are the THR smilies, rearranged slightly but significantly from their order on the Smilies bar:

define " new" .....
just joined the group - yesterday , I think. My friends think of me as a crusty old fart interested in nearly any sort of projectile weapon and a few psychological ones (grin). Alcohol, tobacco and firearms are all wonderfully fulfilling hobbies. Shakespeare said " ...brevity is the soul of wit..." so with that in mind "nuff said. See you round the forums

Just signed up on here after many years of random lurking. I live in the Atlanta area and I own/have owned several guns including Glocks, HKs, Sigs, etc. My current stable includes an HK USP .40f, an HK USC .45 carbine, and 3 AR15 builds that are under construction. I also have plans to pick up some NFA toys within the next 6 months. I've signed up on THR because I'm concerned about trends in legislation and what can be done to protect the second amendment.

Trying to get back into it...
Hi all. New here, but not really new to guns, just trying to get back into it. Reader's digest version: Got into shooting about 15 years ago, right out of college. My first boss, God bless him, got me hooked as he was a certifiable gun nut (in the good sense ). I ended up buying a S&W 586 (first love and still my favorite) and later a Glock 22. Boss also got me into reloading on his Lee single stage equipment, and I was hooked.
Marriage, kids, and the unfortunate (gun) suicide of a good friend got me out of the sport for some time, and I finally sold everything I had. Later, I managed to talk the wife into (me) getting a Remington 870 20ga right before Y2K for a SHTF gun. I've kept it but haven't fired a round since before Y2K.
A buddy of mine who has never shot a gun in his life recently expressed interest in getting his first firearm, after moving out in the country. That's what's got me inspired to take it up again. I'll get him hooked like my old boss did me and go from there. I'm looking forward to getting into reloading again, this time with my own stuff. I see a lever gun on the horizon too.

Hello all!
I am an outdoorsy pacific northwester! I joined the forum several months ago but am still new.
My absolute favorite gun is the .44 magnum. It is a stronghold in history and a classic round! I can't wait to visit Alaska again (or to move up there would be a dream!) and go backpacking with my baby at my side... i don't mind the extra weight because i know it is worth it. Anyway, that's all I got. Thanks for the opportunity to introduce myself.
I greatly appreciate people who believe in individual rights - this forum gives me hope that not everyone is trying to vote away our freedom! Thank you to those who started it and God bless you!

A New York police officer has been arrested on charges of plotting to kidnap and eat women, the FBI says.
According to a criminal complaint dated Wednesday, Gilberto Valle, a New York Police Department officer, conspired with an unnamed partner "about kidnapping, cooking and eating body parts of women".

Charged NYC officer 'A very good person'
New York City police officer Gilberto Valle was charged with plotting to torture women and then cook and eat their body parts.
"The allegations in the complaint really need no description from us. They speak for themselves," FBI acting assistant director Mary Galligan said.
"It would be an understatement merely to say Valle's own words and actions were shocking."
The FBI learned about Valle's plan in September when he discussed it on emails and instant messages from his home computer, according to the complaint.
A search of his computer allegedly revealed files kept on at least 100 women, each with a name and photograph and often personal details such as address and descriptions.
Valle is believed to have used law enforcement databases to gather his list and concoct a "plan to abduct and cook an identified woman, researching methods of disabling and drugging women, and agreeing with at least one other individual to kidnap a woman in exchange for a sum of money".
During one online conversation that took place in July between Valle and the unidentified co-conspirator, the complaint says, Valle was asked "how big is your oven?"
Valle allegedly answered: "Big enough to fit one of these girls if I folded their legs."
Further discussing the culinary aspects of the plot, the co-conspirator allegedly asked Valle what his "favourite cut of meat" was and advised against using a spit over a fire.
"Spitting kills the girl. Have to put her into a kind of cage," the co-conspirator wrote.
"I was thinking of tying her body onto some kind of apparatus," Valle allegedly responds. "Cook her over a low heat, keep her alive as long as possible."

What is in this article?:
More About:
Phomopsis seed rot is caused by several different fungi that are part of a complex. This is a seed pathogen, and severely infected seed is chalky white in color and does not germinate. Fludioxonil is one of the primary treatments. In our lab, the strobilurin fungicides were compared in a rolled towel assay and pyraclostrobin treated seed also provided protection in seed lots with 35% level of Phompsis infection.
Overall use high-quality, healthy seed, plant into soil that is optimum for seed germination and growth, as well as plant to optimum depth and moisture levels. Remember, don't beat the rain and have one of those 3-4-in. dumpers that will saturate the field for days. If your seed is not protected you will most likely have to replant that field.

project for my thesis.
The text file contains bit stream of 12 lead ECG signals, and I need
to convert them into dicom waveform format.
Can you suggest me, what should I do ? Do you know open source dicom
waveform library based on C or C++ ? I've tried to found, but the
resource is too limited. I think NEMA should has a verified library

New GF Product
Jane Anderson
, About.com Guide
Nabisco, makers of the very gluten-y Wheat Thins, Ritz and Triscuit cracker varieties, is launching a new line of rice-based gluten-free crackers in three flavors.
Rice Thins
will be available in the cracker aisle (next to the brand's conventional options) and will retail for a suggested $3.69, the company says.
The crackers come in Original, Sea Salt & Pepper, and White Cheddar flavors, and are manufactured in a gluten-free facility, a Nabisco spokesperson tells me. They conform to the U.S. Food and
Drug Administration's definition of "gluten-free."
The Original flavor contains only three ingredients: white rice flour, high oleic safflower oil, and salt. The other two include brown rice, potato flour and corn flour, and the White Cheddar crackers also include dairy ingredients and yeast. All the crackers are made on equipment that also processes soy, sesame seed and tree nuts. The snacks are baked, not fried, according to Nabisco.

Thoughts from Our President,
Sherri Clay
This is a wonderful time of year! The mornings are crisp, the holidays are around the corner, and we are planning an excellent line-up of speakers, like Dr. Lisa Hendrix, over the next several months.
By now, you may have heard that
Dr. Rodney Ford
will be returning to Little Rock next year on
October 14, 2014
. Dr. Ford is a world renowned gluten-free expert from New Zealand. He will speak on what he has learned over his 37 years of clinical experience as a Pediatrician, Gastroenterologist, Nutritional Consultant, and Allergist. He was recently honored as one of the best speakers of the year!
When Dr. Ford came in 2012, we had a sell-out crowd. So for his next stop in Arkansas, we have reserved double the space at St. Vincent's. We estimate our costs to be in the ballpark of $3,000, and we want to keep the price of tickets at $10. So we need to raise some money. If you have experience in publicity, we need you!
Each person who attends Dr. Ford's seminar will represent many people that they in turn will influence. Please consider how you can help in this worthy mission!
Upcoming Meeting Info
Monday, October 21st
, 6:00-8:00pm
Dr. Lisa Hendrix
, with
Paragould Allergy & Wellness Clinic
Topic: Dr. Lisa Hendrix will talk about several topics including gluten, vitamin deficiencies, infertility, thyroid, adrenal, etc. She will also answer some of our questions.
Please RSVP for this month's meeting to LaDonna (

YOUR Opinions
From Sherri on Facebook:
We had a delicious catfish dinner at the
Catfish Hole
(603 Spriggs Rd.) in North Little Rock tonight. They only use cornmeal on their catfish. Yum!
From Sheryl on Facebook:
Hi Friends! Some cool new GF products I have come across. 1) Pillsbury "slice and bake cookies"-Delish! It is packaged in a tub so you can make as many or as few as you like. 2) Udi's muffins - Although not a new 'find,' the autumn/pumpkin flavor is out of this world. Hadn't had a muffin in over five months and I felt like "Wow! This must be what heaven is like." 3) Pasta power-house Barilla announce they are coming out with a GF pasta. This is a great company, so I am certain it will be a home run!
From Connie on Facebook:
This year the
Arkansas Times Craft Beer Festival
in North Little Rock (Nov. 1, 2013) will have GLUTEN FREE BEERS from four breweries! New Planet, Schlafly, Widmer, and Dark Hills Breweries will have all-you-care-to-taste gluten-free beers. Who says beer tastings aren't for us!
From Sherri on Facebook:
The gluten-free Udi's frozen cheese pizza gets my teenage daughter's and my stamp of approval!
From Whitney on Facebook:
I think my lipstick is making me sick...is gluten in lipstick a common problem? Any gluten-free recommendations?
From Mandy on Facebook:
I know Avon has a list of GF lipsticks. You may have to have a rep get ahold of a district manager or something to get ahold of it. Other companies I know that have GF lipsticks are Arbonne, Jane Iredale, and Red Apple Lipstick.
From Julianne on Facebook:
I use Ecco Bella for lipstick. GF and not full of toxic ingredients.
From Sheryl on Facebook:
Hi friends! Does anyone know if the Pumpkin Spice Latte at Starbucks GF?
From Mandy on Facebook:
Here is a link you can check out
. Also,
I will say that in years past, when Starbucks wasn't quite so ambiguous about their GF items, the Pumpkin Spice Latte was stated to be GF. I have enjoyed them in years past, and as nervous as Starbucks is about staring what's in their drinks, I've never had a problem. But it is risky.
From Donna on Facebook:
Does anyone have any suggestions on substituting GF cream of mushroom soup in recipes? The GF mushroom soup I found was really runny. Thanks!!
From Anne on Facebook:
Pacific makes GF cream soups - chicken, mushroom and celery. They can be found at Drug Emporium, Whole Foods, and Fresh Market.
From Christie on Facebook:
Pacific is plenty thick, but I find it so heavy on the garlic that it's off-putting, and I like garlic!
From Marsha on Facebook:
Nativ Forest canned coconut milk is rich and creamy and makes a fine Alfredo sauce. Totally different product than coconut milk in a carton. Kroger has it in organic section, or Amazon.

from Cooking2Thrive®
Cheri Thriver
Need a quick substitute for mayonnaise? I don't really keep mayonnaise in the house because it gets old before I use it. If you've made a transition to gluten-free that involves fewer sandwiches, this may be true for you as well. Sometimes I still want to make a quick tuna salad for lunch, so here's what I do. I grab some plain yogurt and a lemon. Just a squeeze of fresh lemon juice in yogurt gives me all the binder I need for my tuna, onions, and pickles or my tuna, salted almonds, and golden raisins. It's quick, it's easy, and it uses things I always have in the house. In a pinch? Give it a try!
Almond White Chocolate Chunk Cookies
from Barbara Owen
Yield: 5 1/2 to 6 dozen cookies
This recipe has been in an advertisement for Hershey's White Chocolate in several magazines. My daughter made them using g/f flour that she mixes herself. The cookies are very good and crispy.
My daughter's GF flour:
1 cup each of white rice flour, cornstarch, tapioca starch
(she shifts her flour 3 times)
1 Tbsp potato starch flour
1 tsp xanthum gum
2 1/2 cups flour mix
1 tsp baking soda
1/2 tsp salt
2 sticks butter
1 1/4 cup sugar
2 eggs
1 1/2 tsp almond extract
8 oz. white chocolate chips, coarsely chopped
1 cup slivered almonds
1. In a bowl, mix the flour, baking soda, and salt.
2. In a separate larger bowl, beat the butter and sugar until fluffy.
Add eggs and almond extract to butter mixture until well combined.
3. Gradually add flour mixture to larger bowl and stir to combine.
4. Stir in chocolate and almonds.
5. Drop cookie dough on an ungreased cookie sheet and bake in 375F oven 12-16 minutes until slightly browned.
6. Cool 1 minute on cookie sheet, then on rack.

Event: First Carbon-CAP Stakeholder Workshop [viewed]
The first stakeholder workshop of the Carbon-CAP project will focus on the theme of 'The Role of Consumption-based Emissions in Climate Policy,' and will be funded by the EU's Seventh Programme for Research (FP7). Consortium members will present research results from the first year of the project. Experts from around the world will be invited to participate and contribute to maximizing the event output for the project's future work. Three sessions, held over two days, will include presentations on: carbon footprint models; options and business experience with consumption-based environmental policies; and interactive modeling of transformation scenarios. The Carbon-CAP project has two objectives: stimulating innovative European and international climate policies through improved knowledge based on consumption emissions; and realizing a more effective policy mix for moving to a competitive low-carbon economy in 2050.

Nashville-based vocalist, songwriter, producer, guitarist, bassist D.A. KarKos has issued the following update on the Jerry Gaskill (KING'S X drummer) solo record:
"As many of you know, before he had his heart attack, we've been busy demo-ing ideas together for Jerry's upcoming solo record. So let me fill you in with where we're at with it and what the plan is...
As of now, we have 11 killer songs that we believe will be some of Jerry's (and my) best work to date. And when the time comes, we plan on having some very special guest musicians/friends lend some of their talents to the record as well. Needless to say (but I'm saying it anyway), we are very excited about all of this!
And to quote Jerry speaking of his recent heart attack and recovery from his public thank you video: 'This is a really bad situation that I think has turned into a really good situation.' There is no doubt in our minds that we we'll see evidence of this truth on this record."
The Karkos/Gaskill partnership album will be released on EMMJAM records.
To help Jerry pay his medical bills, King's X are offering up a live MP3 concert called Burning Down Boston - Live At The Channel 6.12.1991. This release was edited and mastered from a stereo FOH recording. While the audio is far from perfect sonically, the performance documents yet another magical night on tour while supporting the Faith Hope Love album.
While many of the song titles are familiar, the band expands many of the cuts featured here, including performances that are blistering ('Moanjam'),heavy and funk-laden ('We Are Finding Who We Are'), beautiful ('The Burning Down'), and truly transcendental ('Over My Head'). A few songs from the show were omitted due to tape damage. However, included are three bonus tracks (an additional 15 minutes) from the same show that were not presented in the main tracklisting.
All recordings previously unreleased: 14 songs, 89 minutes.
'We are Finding Who We Are'
'Far, Far Away'
'We Were Born To Be Loved'
'It's Love Intro'
'It's Love'
'I'll Never Get Tired Of You'
'Over My Head'
'The Burning Down'
'Talk To You' (bonus track)
'Fall On Me' (bonus track)
'Power Of Love' (bonus track)
In addition to the gift with this download, anyone who wants to further make a personal gift to Jerry to help him with his medical bills know that they can send a check made out to Jerry Gaskill.
Mail it to:
Jerry Gaskill
c/o World Entertainment Inc.
P.O. Box 3095, Sea Bright, NJ
100% of your gift goes to Jerry Gaskill to help him defray his medical bills. Jerry Gaskill is an individual and not a charity. Any funds given to him would be a gift and no further tax deduction for charitable contributions would be coming from him.
All upcoming North American tour dates for King's X have been cancelled. Jerry will be spending these days recovering back to full health so that he can hopefully join the band behind the drums at some point in the future.

Visualizing Risk
Here are some ideas I have about some more simple things that might possibly work.
See them in bullet outline form at
Get a large bulletin board for the project. Get a bunch of index cards. Write the user stories from the requirements group on the cards. If a story is too big to fit on a card, get the user to agree with you about how to break it into multiple stories. If some small and closely related stories can reasonably be combined, do so. Put all the cards up on the bulletin board. Give the technical leads a half hour to review the cards and suggest any further splits or combinations needed so each card represents a single, cohesive user story. Get the users to agree to the cards or explain any revisions they need to these requirements.
Take a break.
Have the users prioritize the cards. Reorder the cards with top priority items at the top. Have the technical leads review the first priority group to give their opinion about whether all these items can be included in your three weeks. If so, decide which second to nth priority items will be scheduled for the release three weeks from now. If not, have the users decide which of the first priority items are most useful to them to have first.
If you have more cards than can be completed in the release for three weeks from now, have a scribe collect the cards, transcribe them, and put them on the project web site as "wish list for future versions, not scheduled yet".
You're done with the users for the morning.
Have the technical leads bring in their developers. Move all the cards to one side of the board, representing "high risk". Any developer who is confident that they can readily complete the software to fulfill the story, without having to learn anything new or to break a sweat, can move the card almost all the way to the other, "low risk" end of the board. (The far end of the board, "zero risk", is empty so far. Zero risk of development failure means that you've completed the software that passes the unit tests, and the user agrees that the software meets the requirement. Eventually all the cards for this release will be moved over there.) Any developer who thinks they can probably learn what is needed and do the job without too much trouble can move a card to the "medium risk" section.
Assign pairs of developers to conduct SpikeTests
on the high risk cards. (Start by asking for volunteers.) Any remaining developers are assigned to examine the "medium risk" items and to report back tomorrow on what would have to be done to move these to the "low risk" category.
Developers should spend some of their time writing unit tests that could only be passed by software that meets the requirements, and check the tests into the source control system.
Throughout the remainder of the project, as programmers complete work that lowers the risk of any particular card, move the card over as appropriate. Before moving a card, the development pair must check in code, documentation, and completed unit test results to the project web site. Developers will have the following priorities for the following three weeks: 1. Complete their current spike test, moving a high risk item to medium or low risk; OR realize that they're in over their heads on it, and request help. 2. Help others with their spike tests on request, or take over spike tests they could more readily complete. 3. Complete discovery of factors that reduce medium risk to low. 4. Research factors that would reduce medium risk to low. 5. Complete the unit tests for low risk code. 6. Complete low risk code that passes the corresponding unit test. 7. Check in and document low risk code which now is no-risk code. Look for the highest priority remaining item available on which the developer feels competent to contribute. If not all projects are adopted by volunteers, then starting with the highest risk projects, technical leads will use a random process to select among the most likely qualified developers.
I hope this is useful to you.
I had never seen risk-reduction dealt with so specifically before I read this. I actually read it half way through my story-writing session. While I ate lunch, I made some adjustments to my process to focus on risk-reduction where it was needed. Our customer tends to focus on what he can see, so some back-end stuff was not getting dealt with till we talked about risk. --

MONTGOMERY -- The Alabama Legislature has wrapped up its special session by approving tax breaks for individuals and small businesses.
The Senate gave final approval to a bill Saturday that will make sure Alabamians don't have to pay state income taxes on their federal economic incentive checks. That will save taxpayers $30 on a $600 stimulus check and $60 on a $1,200 stimulus check.
The Senate also gave final approval to a bill that will allow businesses with less than 25 employees to deduct from their state income tax 150 percent of what they spend on employees' health insurance. Workers at small businesses would get the same deduction for their payments toward health insurance. The deduction has been 100 percent.
The Legislature is paying for the $33 million tax break by closing loopholes that some large national corporations use to pay less state income tax in Alabama.

Tony è una persona molto gentile, la casa molto comoda e pulita ad eccezione della cucina che era veramente sporca.
nel complesso buono il rapporto costo qualità.
chambre située sur la rue très bruyante. Pas de garage privé. Parking en face la nuit 19€.
Antonio is friendly and helpful. The flat is nice and in a great localisation. I recommend staying here.
Despite a bit of a language barrier (I speak no Spanish) between me and Antonio, he was helpful when we arrived and only met us at the beginning and end of our stay, so we had all the privacy we wanted :) I didn't realise we would be in a flat with a few other rooms (with couples who kept to themselves) and that there was a 25 euro deposit for the keys but no problems there.
In all it was definitely a good choice - the room was warm at night but opening doors/windows helped and there were no bugs/mosquitoes to worry about. The location can't be beaten - sufficiently quiet part of the Carrer de Valencia but two seconds and you're at the Sagrada and corresponding metro. Plus Tuscania restaurant around the corner/opp. the S.F. is a great place to eat if you want to pay a bit more but in return get really good Italian :)
The balcony was as cute as it looked in the photos - in fact, all the photos were accurate representations, always reassuring :) There may be better rooms in Barcelona but nowhere near as cheap or well located as this, I def. recommend it :)
P.S. there was a small lift to take us from the surprisingly fancy entrance lobby up to the fifth floor, very useful :)
central area. owner friendly and always present
zona centrale. proprietario accogliente e sempre presente
For one night going well ... Antonio must answer to mobile

Nice experience to share the apartment with people from all over the world. Host is really friendly and helps you with everything. Disadvantage of living in a shared apartment is that bathroom and kitchen aren't always clean although host is trying his best.
The apartment was clean, kitchen and balcony available, distance from the Metro favorable. The owner was friendly and accommodating. At first it was difficult to get into the apartment, because the bell was not working down and no phone connection was possible. The apartment bell worked then.
Die Wohnung war sauber, Küche und Balkon vorhanden, Entfernung von der Metro günstig. Der Vermieter war freundlich und entgegenkommend. Anfangs war es schwierig in die Wohnung zu kommen, da die Klingel unten nicht funktionierte und keine Telefonverbindung möglich war. Die Wohnungsklingel funktionierte dann.
Hello There,
We stayed for a short stay at Antonio guest. Antonio has been very nice and helpful. The room that we had is in a rented apartment that is rented for tourists. There are 4 or 5 rooms for rent there. Who does not have many claims, which can stay good for very little money. It's a little dingy. The kitchen we only used for cooling of fruit and drinks. Cooking I did not want there. We shower with slippers. As I said, the night it was completely ok. The apartment is centrally located. You can walk in 5 minutes at the Sagrada Familia and the metro station. Our room was facing the street, it was a bit noisy, but not all night. There were slight language barrier, because Antonio does not speak English so well. In the run I wanted to clarify how it is with "parking" is present meant. I asked if we could park for free. He said there were two possibilities, which unfortunately were not free but definitely. Directly opposite a car park for € 20.00 per day. Who has a car that can park their vehicle for € 7.00 a day for parking Vaiajeros (metro station "Badal", near the Camp Nou). One can conveniently book via internet, only then can the vehicle and move freely (always in and out whenever you want for the booked period). Another tip. We needed no day passes for public transport. We have (used in pairs) brought us two tickets with 10 trips and that has served us for 4 days, because the sights are already relatively close to each other. We are able to walk well, so we have really seen a lot. I hope you can what to do with my vote.
wir waren für einen Kurztripp bei Antonio zu Gast. Antonio ist sehr nett und hilfsbereit gewesen. Das Zimmer welches wir hatten ist in einer angemieteten Wohnung, die nur für Urlauber vermietet wird. Es befinden sich 4 oder 5 Zimmer zur Vermietung dort. Wer nicht viele Ansprüche hat, der kann für kleines Geld gut übernachten. Es ist ein wenig schmuddelig. Die Küche haben wir nur zum Kühlen von Obst und Getränken genutzt. Kochen wollte ich nicht dort. Geduscht haben wir mit Badeschlappen. Wie gesagt, zur Übernachtung war es völlig ok. Die Wohnung ist zentral gelegen. Man ist zu Fuß in 5 Minuten bei der Sagrada Familia und der Metrostation. Unser Zimmer war zur Straße raus, es war etwas laut, jedoch nicht die ganze Nacht hindurch. Es gab leichte Sprachbarrieren, denn Antonio spricht nicht so gut englisch. Im Vorfeld wollte ich abklären wie das mit "Parkplatz" vorhanden gemeint ist. Ich fragte ob wir kostenlos parken können. Er meinte es gäbe auf jeden Fall zwei Möglichkeiten, die aber leider nicht kostenlos waren. Direkt gegenüber ein Parkhaus für 20,00 € am Tag. Wer einen Leihwagen hat, der kann diesen für 7,00 € am Tag bei Vaiajeros Parking abstellen (Metrohaltestelle "Badal", in der Nähe von Camp Nou). Man kann das bequem übers Internet reservieren, nur dann kann man das Fahrzeug auch frei bewegen (immer ein und ausfahren, wann man will im gebuchten Zeitraum). Noch ein Tipp. Wir brauchten keine Tagespässe für die öffentlichen Verkehrsmittel. Wir haben uns zwei Tickets mit je 10 Fahrten (zu zweit genutzt) geholt und das hat uns für 4 Tage gereicht, da die Sehenswürdigkeiten schon relativ nah bei einander liegen. Wir sind gut zu Fuß, daher haben wir auch wirklich viel gesehen. Ich hoffe Ihr könnt was mit meiner Bewertung anfangen.

ANN ARBOR -- Add another preseason accolade to the shelf for Michigan sophomore forward Mitch McGary.
USA Today unveiled its 2013-14 preseason All-America list on Monday, placing McGary on its first team and ranking the Wolverines No. 8 in its preseason poll.
The All-America mention is the second so far for the 6-foot-10, 255-pound McGary in advance of the season. He was also named a preseason All-American by The Sporting News.
Also, per a release on MGoBlue.com, USA Today tabbed Michigan sophomore forward as a preseason All-America honorable mention.
McGary averaged 14.1 points and 10.7 during Michigan's run to the national championship game last season.
Robinson, who should spend more time at small forward this season, averaged 11 points and 5.4 rebounds per game as a freshman a year ago. He started all 39 of Michigan's games.

Here's how RW members rated this race (190 votes).
In short: superb run withso many friendly facesIn full: superb run,fantastic marshalls and really well organised.A really friendly feel about the whole event,will be backDate of review: March 22, 2011
In short: Stunning scenery and a great atmosphere.In full: This race had a really friendly atmosphere. The route is beautiful and varied but quite tough for a road runner. I welcomed the change although my time was a couple of minutes slower than normal but the whole day was so nice that it didn't matter. Thank you to the marshall at mile 13,who made my day as did the other marshalls. Only hassle was getting out of the carpark as some idiot was trying to come down the narrow lane. Will recommend the race to everyone. Thank you :)Date of review: March 22, 2011
In short: 1st half marathon and loved it. The Marshall at the half way point should get Marshal of the year. She was brilliant xDate of review: March 22, 2011
In short: Very enjoyable, will be back next yearDate of review: March 22, 2011
In short: Spectacular! Loved it!In full: Fabulous race. My second half and really loved it!Special thanks to hot dog lady for keeping my sunglasses for me and to the Marshall by last bridge who let me have a sip of her water!Date of review: March 22, 2011
In short: Second time of running for me - just gets betterIn full: Enjoyed it more this second time round - it was nice knowing what was coming. Special mention to the "marshal of the year" on mile seven, and the two purple pom-pommed cheerleaders towards the end. You were great.Date of review: March 22, 2011
In short: The good, the bad and the ugly....In full: Starting in reverse order...The Ugly: Bottle neck near tunnel and stairs and an idiot who decided to block the path, pretending to reverse his car at the precise moment when all of us attempted to run a very narrow single file path. The Fast food outlet was rubbish, not only tasted burnt and greasy but the queue and waiting time was twice as long as the loos prior to the race! Give us some heathtly and FAST food, we were starving!The bad: No hills? then I must have got slightly lost as I certainly noticed a gradient.... And not enough T-shirts size small at the end.The good: and wonderful! The MARSHALLS! Best Marshalls I ever encountered during a race, cheering us on, smiling, having fun, just great, great great! The Host calling everyone's name at the finish was great. The car park was great location, the weather was great, the Drums were great and my wife was great as it was her firt ever race and she she did a sub 2h30.We will be back!Date of review: March 22, 2011
In short: Picturesque, well organised, and faster than most suggestIn full: The course is flat and, though off-road, not difficult underfoot, save for the loop at halfway that brings you back round to the riverside. It certainly has PB potential because I did one, unless of course I've not been trying hard enough in the few I've done before. Marshals, as everyone says, are excellent, smiley and supportive and the whole event has that buzz that makes you want to do it again. On the downside, no chip timing (though not a deal-breaker and, yes, I know it cuts down costs not to have them) is unusual these days, the parking arrangements could be better (but I suppose they could be better everywhere and there could be more toilets, especially since there are precious few opportunities that I could see to sneak off and find a bush (except maybe out on the course itself). Again, though, that's a problem common to all these races, and what do you do - provide one per runner? Thoroughly enjoyed it and will do it again.Date of review: March 21, 2011
In short: A lovely scenic race - great way to spend a Sunday morningIn full: Really enjoyed this race. It was only my second half marathon and I enjoyed the mix of serious and fun-runners. With only a few places too narrow to pass at the beginning and end, I found there was plenty of opportunity to overtake and get a good time. The mix of terrain kept my legs interested too. And the drums kept us going halfway and the medal and goody bag were a nice reward for finishing.The portaloo queues were big as always but we found the the toilets in the leisure centre which were far nicer!Date of review: March 21, 2011
In short: An excellent event held in idyllic surroundings.In full: I thoroughly enjoyed the event. It was extremely well organised and the marshals were so enthusiastic encouraging everyone. The marshal, who was stationed about half way as we turned left to come back, was wonderful. Definitely an event to do again.Date of review: March 21, 2011

About 80 teams in York came to battle it out in a 3-on-3 basketball tournament held at York College Saturday. The event was put together to help a fellow player.
The money raised from the tournament will go to a member of York Catholic's 2006 and 2007 championship teams, Amanda Weaver. Weaver has been diagnosed with stage 3 colon cancer.
"She went through such a difficult time and may have thought at one point there wasn't anyone for her, and this proves that everybody is right there backing her up and will always be there to back her up," said Scott Lehmann, event director.
After the tournament, former girl's basketball all-stars from York and Adams County high schools, along with some girls from the Capital Area All-Star team, reunited for an alumni game.

The Atlanta Audio Video Club
One of my favorite experiences of the show was getting to meet and speak with members of the Atlanta Audio Video Club (from left: Ken Green, Steve Gooding, President John Morrison, Dennis Juranek, Jennifer Dickinson, and a prospective member and longtime Stereophile reader whose name I regretfully cannot recall).
All those who attended Axpona were fortunate to have the Atlanta AV Club on hand, volunteering their time and providing many kind smiles. Members were stationed at desks throughout the exhibit areas, directing attendees to showrooms, answering questions, promoting raffles, and simply adding cheer to the event.
It was immediately obvious that members of the Atlanta AV club were eager to share their enthusiasm for hi-fi and music. Surrounded by this sort of passion and dedication to music and sound, we can be sure that the hobby is in very good hands.

The group is comprised of three multi-talented musicians, Martii Garcia, 24, D-Nero Garcia, 23, and Nazz Travagant, 23. Tha Tooonz bring catchy beats and clean lyrics in a fresh hip-hop style. Having performed at many schools in Los Angeles County and schools in Texas and Boston, Tha Tooonz have reached out and touched many young lives with a genuine care for their struggles at home.
"Kids write us MySpace messages thanking us for our concerts. They say it takes them to another place, away from everything they deal with at home," Martii said.
At almost every school where they perform, kids confide in them.
"(It) happens by us just being real... and (kids) just open up because we're not trying to be like demanding adults or parents," Nazz said. "When they hear it from us, they gravitate more toward it because we're younger and they listen more. They look up to us, and we're just giving out our positivity."
The members of Tha Tooonz specifically chose their message because they "gravitated toward the kids, and the kids are always looking up to us," Martii said.
"They always wanted to hear what we had to say. We are a positive group and we were like, why not project this positivity... why don't we let them know what we are really about?"
This is a group that lives out the very things it advocates. "We are a team, too, you know," said D-Nero, when asked how Tha Tooonz has made it so far. "All three Tooonz are high school graduates, so stay in school."
Diversity is important to them, and it shows in the make-up of their group. They wear all the colors of the rainbow to show that every shade is beautiful, and that they don't choose a specific gang color. They just "aren't cool with that" the group members quipped.
Being real, said Nazz, "wasn't something that we had to put together. We talked about different messages, but... we're just a fun, real group. This group is full of real people... we just give off energy that people want to have, because were just trying to change the world. Positivity wins everywhere."
Tha Tooonz name echoes its origin; cartoons. "We are characters in music, each one of us represents a different character, just like a cartoon would. We all have our inner superheroes," Martii chimed in.
Their first performance in the Santa Clarita Valley debuted on the night of the 2009 Summer Meltdown Concert at Golden Valley High School, while opening for the headliner Shwayze. The thunderous noise of screaming and applause filled the air and it was obvious the crowd loved them. The group is already confirmed to be part of next year's Meltdown.
Having worked with Will.i.am. and other stars, Tha Tooonz are climbing their way to the top with hits like "Mirror on the wall," "Maniac," "Adrenaline," "Jock N Me," and "Meant 2 Be."

I am new re ETP can u tell me what % of div is depc and return of capt. How much div. would increase cost basis ?
About 80-90% of distribution is tax deferred. Do not understand your other question since ETP is a partnership and at the end of the year you get a K-1. The K-1 allocates profits, interest income and other stuff. A simplified basic rule of thumb for cost basis is Cost +/- allocated profit/loss on line 1 of K-1, minus distributions paid.PS- you cannot predict the numbers beforehand!ARB
"you cannot predict the numbers beforehand!"Of course he can.He'll be wrong, but most predictions are wrong anyway.

Gators, Among Others, to Play in New "Barnstorm Event"
Athletic Director of Michigan State, Mark Hollis is known for his unusual marketing tactics when it comes to sports. Now, he has come up with another wild idea.
ESPN.com is reporting?a four-team "barnstorming event" that will involve Michigan State, Texas, Florida and North Carolina -- to take place in 2018. ?It'll be an eight-day, three-city tour. New York City (Madison Square Garden), Chicago (United Center) and Los Angeles (Staples Center) will also host the event, with each city getting a different match-up.
The plan will be to showcase UNC vs. Texas/MSU vs. Florida at one venue, Texas vs. MSU/Florida vs. UNC at another, and Texas vs. Florida/MSU vs. UNC at another.
It's scheduled to start Dec. 15, 2018, per the report.
Hollis told ESPN.com Wednesday that all four schools, their coaches and athletic directors have confirmed their participation.
"It's a very cool idea," Michigan State coach Tom Izzo said Wednesday. "At first I thought it was crazy, but it's during break so we don't miss any school. It's three big games in a row, and with the ACC-Big Ten Challenge and other events [Champions Classic] we could have six or seven big games. So many of these kids know each other from AAU and everything else that we felt this would be a great way to travel," Hollis said. "I worked with [ADs] Steve Patterson at Texas, Jeremy Foley at Florida and Bubba Cunningham at North Carolina on this. They and the head coaches are all excited about the opportunity for the student-athletes."
The teams also will have tours of each city's attractions which helps make this a nice bonus recruiting tool, too.
It also indicates on some small level that all of these coaches hope to be coaching at their programs in 2018.

BAZETTA - State ethics law could halt trustees from making certain decisions if a candidate with ties to a township police officer and a seated trustee is elected.
But candidate Stephanie Hovis insists she will be an effective trustee while working within the bounds of Ohio ethics law and says a letter circulating the township by those opposing her election contains incorrect information.
''We don't want to hurt the township at all,'' Hovis said this week.
Hovis' husband, Mike Hovis, is a Bazetta police sergeant.
Another seated trustee whose term has not expired, Paul Hovis, is the police sergeant's brother. The combination could present a unique situation should an issue arise involving Mike Hovis' township position that might require a trustee vote, and a possible abstention from two of the three board members.
Stephanie Hovis said before running for office, she asked the Ohio Ethics Commission what limitations the relationship might present. Trustee Paul Hovis requested a similar opinion in March.
Now the question is being raised by a committee of concerned citizens.
The committee circulated a letter stating that ''neither Hovis is permitted to vote on any issues that concern the police department,'' an assertion Stephanie Hovis claims is not true.
Former township clerk Cheryl Tennant, who is a member of the opposition, said the committee wanted to bring out the potential conflict that could prevent some public decisions from being made.
Those decisions would be limited to those directly affecting her husband, according to statements and an unofficial opinion from the Ohio Ethics Commission.
Ethics law could prevent trustees from making any decisions regarding disciplinary or other actions directly involving the police sergeant since two trustees would need to abstain from the vote.
If two of the three trustees cannot vote on an issue, there is no other avenue to seek passage.
''One trustee does not a board make,'' said Ethics Commission advisory attorney Jennifer Hardin.
The trustees could decide collective bargaining issues, as long as the contract affects all police officers equally, according to Hardin.
Contract talks are ongoing and may not be done until after the election, Paul Hovis said, adding he believes bargaining agreements would not affect Sgt. Mike Hovis any more than his fellow officers.
The commission also told Paul Hovis he could negotiate and vote on police contracts provided Mike Hovis is not a member of the negotiating team. The commission opinion added that Stephanie Hovis cannot be on her husband's health insurance and still vote on police contracts.
Stephanie Hovis said her husband served as a negotiator in the past and that she is on his insurance. However, she expects he will step down as negotiator if she is elected. He also would drop his insurance through the township and get on a new policy through his wife if she is elected, Stephanie Hovis said.
Also, neither Stephanie nor Paul Hovis could vote on disciplinary action involving Mike Hovis, according to the opinions. Stephanie Hovis said that discipline should not be a problem because the acting chief of police would take action on it first. She also said that her husband did not mind the commission's opinion that he would be barred from advancement if she were on the trustee board.
Neither Stephanie nor Paul Hovis believe the trustees would have problems voting on police matters if Stephanie Hovis is elected.
Sgt. Mike Hovis is one of two ranking members in the police department, according to Paul Hovis. The other is Tom Miller, the township's acting police chief. The ranking members negotiate separately from the nonranking officers, though they are covered in the same contract.
''If we're talking about a major police force with thousands of sergeants, then there's not a difference. If it's a very small police force with one sergeant treated differently then yeah that would affect the application of the law,'' Hardin said.
Township attorney Mark Finamore did not believe there would be a conflict if all officers are under the same contract.

The MIT Collaboratorium: Enabling Effective Large-Scale Deliberation for Complex Problems
Mark Klein
Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) - Sloan School of Management
December 2007
MIT Sloan Research Paper No. 4679-08
While current online discussion tools such as email, chat, wikis, and web forums have been enormously successful at enabling unprecedented global knowledge sharing, they face significant limitations from the perspective of enabling effective large-scale deliberation around complex and controversial issues such as climate change. This paper describes the design and rationale of a system, called the Collaboratorium, which was developed to transcend these limitations by supporting large-scale on-line argumentation.

|Depicts a group of Australian soldiers talking and telling camp stories in front of a tent at an encampment in France. Around them is their personal military equipment, including helmuts, swags and tin mugs. Power was born in Dunedin, New Zealand in 1877. When he was young his family immigrated to Australia and settled in Melbourne. At the age of 14, Power ran away from home to pursue a career as an artist. He developed a passion for drawing animals, especially horses, and found jobs that involved contact with animals. In 1900 Power moved to Adelaide where he worked as a political cartoonist with the Register, and painted in the Adelaide hills with Hans Heysen. In 1903 Power was the first Australian artist to receive a commission from the National Gallery of South Australia. In 1905 he traveled to Europe to study at the Academe Julian in Paris. Power eventually moved to London, where he was able to indulge his passion for animal painting with commissions from wealthy English patrons, and he regularly exhibited at the Royal Academy throughout his career. In 1917, Power was appointed an official war artist with the rank of honorary lieutenant and attached to the 1st Division AIF. He worked in France from September to December. He was commissioned for a second time from August 1918 to March 1920, and then contracted on commissions for the Australian War Memorial until 1938. A number of Power's commissions were for large paintings depicting significant campaigns of the Australian Light Horse during the First World War, including Leaders of the Australian Light Horse in Palestine, 1918 and Ziza. In 1922 the Melbourne Public Library commissioned a large mural depicting the Middle Eastern Theatre and the Western Front. In 1927 the Commonwealth selected Power and fellow artist W B McInnes to depict the opening of Parliament in the new Commonwealth building in Canberra. Septimus Power earned a legendary reputation for his vivid depictions of animals, particularly horses, featured in so many of the paintings he produced for the Australian War Memorial as an official war artist.

It's time for Fall Fest again and this week we're celebrating brassicas – a genus of plants that includes cabbage, cauliflower, brussels sprouts, and more. I chose to focus on brussels sprouts because they are currently available on the stalk and I think it's fun to take home a giant, awkward stalk of brussels sprouts!
Up until a few years ago, I had never even seen brussels sprouts on the stalk. I really hadn't thought too much about how they grew – I guess I assumed they grew out of the ground like tiny little heads of cabbage. Thinking about it now, that seems a little silly, but you have to admit that the way they grow on this crazy stalk is a little silly looking, too!
I'm a sucker for strange looking produce, and as long as they seem fresh, I can never resist buying a hefty club of brussels sprouts when I see them at Trader Joe's, Whole Foods, the local supermarket, or a Farmer's Market – yep, they're sold pretty much everywhere around here during the fall.
Harvesting the sprouts from the stalk is much simpler than you might think. Don't make the mistake I did the first time I was presented with the challenge. The sprouts don't need to be cut off with a knife – it's much easier (and safer) to snap them off with your fingers. It takes no time at all and you'll end up with a big bowl of beautiful, fresh brussels sprouts – my stalk yielded close to two pounds. The sprouts will probably range in size from teeny tiny to very large, so if you're cooking them whole, you might want to sort them according to size and start cooking the larger ones first. If you're going to shred them like I did, size doesn't matter.
I had this great plan for my brussels sprouts – I wanted to cook them with shredded apple and onion in a bit of bacon fat then toss in some cider vinegar, chopped walnuts, and blue cheese. I had been dreaming about it all day. But when the time came to actually make the dish, I realized I was out of both apples and blue cheese! Oh well, at least I had some good bacon and a bag full of fresh walnuts from my uncle's ranch. I simplified the recipe in my head and continued.
I rinsed the sprouts, trimmed the bottoms, and removed any ugly outer leaves (there weren't many – these were a gorgeous bunch of brussels sprouts). I briefly thought about slicing them by hand but laziness took over and I decided to send them through the slicing blade of my food processor instead. The Cuisinart accomplished the task in about a minute.
Since the walnuts were still in the shell, I got out the hammer and cracked enough to equal about half a cup (plus enough to snack on while cooking). If you've never had good, fresh walnuts, you really need to find some. The flavor is amazing – rich and sweet with absolutely no bitterness. If you don't have a nutcracker, no problem, it's simple to open them with a hammer. Just hold the nut on a hard surface with the pointed tip facing up and hit the top with the hammer (not too hard) until it cracks open. It will split in half or into four pieces and you can pick the walnuts out with your fingers (or a fork if they're being stubborn).
I toasted the walnuts at 350 degrees for about 8 minutes before chopping and adding to the sprouts. I also ended up adding some sugar to the cider vinegar dressing since I didn't have apples to provide the sweetness I was looking for. I added a drizzle of walnut oil since I had some handy, but you could use a neutral-flavored oil or even a splash of apple cider to cut the vinegar in the dressing. I loved the simple combination of brussels sprouts, bacon, and walnuts and didn't even miss the extra ingredients I had planned on using. But I'm still going to try it with apples and blue cheese next time!
Shredded Brussels Sprouts with Bacon and Walnuts
2 tablespoons cider vinegar
1 tablespoon brown sugar
1 tablespoon walnut oil (or oil of your choice, or apple cider)
4 slices thick cut bacon
1 pound brussels sprouts, trimmed and shredded (I used shredding blade on my food processor)
1/2 cup toasted chopped walnuts
kosher salt, to taste
fresh ground black pepper, to taste
In a small bowl, whisk together vinegar, sugar, and oil; set aside. In a large skillet, cook bacon until crisp. Remove bacon, cut or crumble into pieces, and set aside. Pour off all but 2 tablespoons of drippings in pan (if there aren't enough drippings to equal 2 tbsp, add a little butter or oil). Heat drippings over medium-high then add shredded brussels sprouts. Cook, stirring constantly, for 3 to 5 minutes, or until just tender. Remove from heat and stir in bacon, walnuts, and dressing. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Serve warm. Serves 4.

Contribute a whole post, or a comment—whatever you wish. It's meant to be fun, viral, fluid. No pressure, just delicious. Simply leave your tip or recipe or favorite links in the comments below a Fall Fest post on my blog, and then go visit my collaborators and do the same.
The cross-blog event idea works best when you leave your recipe or favorite links (whether to your own blog or someone else's) at all the host blogs. Yes, copy and paste them everywhere! That way, they are likely to be seen by the widest audience. Everyone benefits, and some pretty great dialog starts simmering.
Or think bigger: Publish entire posts of your own, if you wish, and grab the Fall Fest 2010 pumpkin badge (illustrated by Matt of Matt Bites).
