Hunting for shoppers at Hunt Valley Mall
By MICHAEL OLESKER
November 26, 1996
The huge parking lot at Hunt Valley Mall looks like some barren moonscape. It's where the great American suburban dream ran out of gas. The mall is so bleak, so empty even in this Thanksgiving week, that it feels as if it's been quarantined and shoppers have been warned to stay away, at risk of contagion.Inside the big place, there's a sense of loneliness, of having made a wrong turn somewhere. You walk into stores where even the employees seem to have vanished. Maybe they've ducked out back for a smoke, or a quickie job interview at some other mall.

So I'm spotting at SNA today, and in a period of about 20 minutes, 3 out of 5 commercial arrivals aborted landing. First was a AA 752, then a WN -700 and lastly a CO 737. The CO and WN aircraft both eventually made another approach and landed. However, the AA flight never came back. Flightaware says it landed, but my eyes were fixed on that airport at the time it says the flight landed, so I can tell you indeed it did not. Does anyone know of a diversion?
Also, winds seemed calm. Could these aborted landings have anything to do with the wildfires that are going on?

Reuters article posted late Friday indicates Bebe is exploring sale of company. I'm very surprised that it has decided to explore this option now in the midst of the new management team in the early stages of repositioning the company. Very curious timing. Why now?? This would help explain the recent SEC filing amending the senior officer employment agreements regarding change of control.
Getting closer everyday.
This move makes sense. I posted a reply to a post on this board on Thursday AM. about trading this stock and someday a buyout. Manny Moshouf, the founder, still owns 60 % of the stock. He is in his 70s. His company has lost it's edge and his vision of 20 years ago is no longer hot. He may want to divest - even for estate planning reasons. He does not need the aggravation, or risk, of riding a "full turnaround". To sell out at 5-25 thousands shares a month will be a drag on the stock and take forever.
Steve Birkhold was likely hired by Manny with full expectations to get Bebe somehow in shape for Manny' and his equity to exit.
Steve is 51. Arranging a good deal for Bebes sale would be a nice career accomplishment - worth just as much to his professional reputation as completing a "turnaround". He will be rewarded. Steve will get millions in bonus, immediate full vesting of all stock options and incentive compensation for the deal by Manny and maybe the buyers - plus the buyers could incentivize him to stay on and mange the place or be a partner in the group. Steve wins, Manny wins, current shareholders are relieved, and Bebe moves on with private equity doing aggressive financial engineering, rationalization of stores and the business. All then outside of the trappings of a public company where shorts, public disclosure requirements, and others who may prey on the business and interfere, being neutralized and pushed out of the game.
This is all probably mostly around Manny Mosauf retiring from retail and getting the best dollar he can for his baby - or shall I say his BEBE - as he moves to a new phase of life. I wish Manny, Steve, and shareholders success I will be hanging in for the ride. No way I cannot make money on BEBE shares, now, in the next 18 months.
Sentiment: Hold
Your comments seem to be those of an 'insider' and certainly probable as outlined. I am one of those early retail-sucker-investors who was taken by glamorous glitz. I will use this investment as an example of "all the glitters in not gold". Keep the faith longs!
I wonder how much bebe shares are worth to a private equity group. I believe the brand still has appeal to the general public that's worth much more than where the shares are trading today

Hope you adjusted for the dividends that have been paid out and deducted from the price--usually reinvested by American Century holders.
Gold stocks can be risky--if you look at the GOLD:XAU--gold stocks are near their lowest point in many years. This could have to do with the gold ETFs that now proliferate, whereas they never did a few years back. But BGEIX is still about as cheap as ever in comparison to the shiny stuff.
I've been using this fund for since 1997 and feel that it furnishes the leverage you would expect to get out of gold stocks and is convenient to average into. I'm averaging into it now.
There are downsides, like the 1% fee if you hold less than 60 days and the fact that you only get the day end price. But it performs well when compared to GDX and GDXJ, especially when taking into consideration the dividends, which the Yahoo charts don't reflect as a reinvestment--they just get lost in the squiggles.
I am not a hold forever type and when the GOLD:XAU gets down toward its 200 day moving average in 2013, I presume, I'd be at least selling some of this.
Dividends are one thing, but volatile price swings are quite another. Are you sure you know what the fund's geometric standard deviation means?
Let me remind you.
It means that statistically - that would be one geometric standard deviation, which is about 68% of the time - the fund will have a yearly range of returns of between -29% to 40%. If two geometric standard deviations is used - that would 95% of the time - the fund's return will be between -63% to 75%. As a comparison, for the same time period, the S&P 500 Index has a annual compounded return of 6.79% and a geometric standard deviation of 20.76% So, really, by investing in this fund, you would have taken on 66% more risk for 15% less return. In other words, the S&P 500 Index is the better investment - risk versus return speaking.
Note, when it comes to price volatility - which is used as a proxy for risk - I'm more concerned about the downside risk, rather than the upside. In other words, I want to know how much I could lose.
Now, if one's risk tolerance is high, maybe this fund is something to consider. The potential investor just needs to know that for such a small long term return, he or she would be taking on a lot of risk. On the other hand, if the person is a trader - rather than an investor - none of what I've just said applies, as traders buy on price and not value.
Oh, and by the way, I'm not a buy and hold forever kind investor either. I'm a buy and hold and THEN sell when the asset becomes fairly valued kind of investor.

Healthline Best Health Blog ContestNovember 22, 2013 at 9:40 am | Posted in rheumatoid arthritis (RA) | 2 Comments
Tags: arthritis, award, blog, healthline, Rheumatoid arthritis, rheumatoid arthritis blog
Hurrah – Pollyanna Penguin's blog has been nominated for Best Health Blog by Healthline … along with a HUGE number of other blogs, including a goodly number of those in my blogroll … maybe even all of them, I haven't checked – certainly Carla's Corner and Rheumablog are up there too, as is Rheumatoid Arthritis Guy, Rheumatoid Arthritis Warrior – who came second last year, pipped to the post by a breast cancer blog.
You can vote for US ALL (and more) here if you want to – or if I manage to set up a nifty little voting widget like Wren has on Rhuemablog you can vote through that – and if you can cope with the slightly convoluted 'Vote via Facebook or Twitter' system and the fact that to find the blog you're looking for you have to keep clicking on 'alphabetical' and guessing what page it's likely to be – here's a clue – I think we're on page 15 at the moment and all the others beginning with R are not far after!🙂 However, make sure you're in 'alphabetical' and not 'popularity' or you'll be completely thrown!
All votes greatly appreciated – there are many more deserving than me – so go vote for them … but while you're at it I'd love to have a vote too! <Grin>
Three-monthly blood testsNovember 19, 2013 at 9:56 pm | Posted in arthrits, rheumatoid arthritis, fibromyalgia, joint pai, Me, rheumatoid arthritis (RA) | 7 Comments

The hospital has decreed that patients on methotrexate for RA no longer need monthly blood tests – they will now be three-monthly instead. Now I don't have a problem with having my blood tests every three months – as yet I've never had a single blip in my tests and if the hospital say three-monthly is safe I suppose I have to believe them and not just assume this is purely a cynical money-saving exercise: 'Hey, what's the odd life lost compared to a few thousand pounds saved, eh? Let's do it! Right lads, down the pub …'
What I do have a problem with is the fact that they can't book tests three months in advance, and yet we've been told to contact the rheumy nurse to make the next appointment. There IS NO WAY to contact her except by making an appointment to see her … a bit of a circular argument! My sensible and lovely nurse realised this straight away and in fact pointed it out to me with a comment on the lines of 'I've told them ALL individually in reception, so don't take any nonsense if they tell you that you should have booked it through me!'
OK, so that's hopefully sorted out even before it becomes a problem, but how crazy that we can't just book the tests when we see the nurse!
The surgery have also arranged monthly 'walk-in clinic' tests for the months we don't see the rheumy nurse … but that's a whole nuther story … a post to come in a day or so.
At last – significant, coordinated research into the WHYs of RA!October 9, 2013 at 11:27 am | Posted in arthrits, rheumatoid arthritis, fibromyalgia, joint pai, rheumatoid arthritis (RA) | 3 Comments

Look around the RA blogging community for a while and you'll see some consistent themes. One is that it's hard to explain to Joe Public what RA is – another is that most of the drugs are by-products of research into other diseases (methotrexate for example, and most of the biologics were developed as cancer treatments) and there is little fundamental research into RA.
That picture has been getting better over the last few years, and it's taking another step in the right direction. Arthritis Research UK, along with the Universities of Glasgow, Newcastle and Birmingham, is funding a major new initiative, the Rheumatoid Arthritis Pathogenesis Centre of Excellence, to be run from Glasgow. The centre's main focus will be on why RA starts, why it attacks the joints, and why it doesn't stop. These are fundamental questions, basic science, but the answers, if they can find them, are likely to lead to a host of potential new treatments.
As I understand it the 'centre' is virtual rather than physical, but it will mean the three universities and other partners undertaking major collaborations into these fundamental areas.
Science is a slow business – results may be a long time coming – but it's great to know that there is a good level of funding for this fundamental research into rheumatoid arthritis.
And remember – if you're based in the UK too, you can get 20% of Physicool products until 9 November 2013.
Hip hip hooray!August 13, 2013 at 8:45 pm | Posted in arthrits, rheumatoid arthritis, fibromyalgia, joint pai, Me, rheumatoid arthritis (RA) | 5 Comments

I've just been to see my GP about a very painful hip that's been bothering me for about four weeks now and getting worse rather than better. (There's little point in going until one is a few weeks into the pain as they just say 'Come back if it's not better in a few weeks' if you do that!) I had been getting rather low thinking that the methotrexate increase wasn't working – but in the back of mind I was wondering if it was arthritis at all. When I saw my rheumy nurse for the monthly blood test a couple of weeks ago I mentioned the hip pain and said, 'Honestly, I don't think it's arthritis – I have plenty of movement in that hip. I could dance the can-can if I had the legs for it!'
Still, it's funny how one's mind can almost split into two on things like this; (well, my mind can, anyway). One part of me was thinking 'Of course it's not arthritis' while the other part was thinking, 'Doom, gloom, despair! My methotrexate increase hasn't worked – there aren't many options open to me if it doesn't … will I end up in a wheelchair?'
Anyway, I saw the doc today and she confirmed that it's NOT arthritis (or at least very unlikely to be, anyway) – far too much movement in the hip. She has referred me for physio for a dodgy ligament (technical term, that!) but the chances are, she thinks, that it'll clear up in another few weeks by itself – so I'll just cancel the appointment, because that'll probably take three months to come through anyway!
The hip pain (and associated other pains including referred pain in the knee) has been making my life a misery and continues to do so. I have to limit the driving I do because it's incredibly painful – it also affects work, but I'm very very happy it's (almost certainly) not arthritis … though I would like to know what on earth caused the ligament to get upset because I haven't done anything to it!
Update – RA, Cholesterol, Cats, Life etc.August 10, 2013 at 10:15 am | Posted in rheumatoid arthritis (RA) | 3 Comments

Well, I've been very remiss posting lately, I must say … so prepare for a very long and rambling post – perhaps I'll put headings on so you can skip to the bits that you might find interesting! A combination of being very busy and yo-yo health – but fortunately, mostly busyness.
Anyone remember the game 'fortunately, unfortunately' where you'd take it turns to make sentences beginning with either fortunately or unfortunately, to make up a story? Well I was wondering whether to write an entire blog post like that, as my life seems to fit that pattern quite well right now – but thought it might get tedious, for you and me! Here's an example though in case you have no idea what I mean:
Fortunately I have been doing a lot of fun things lately.
Unfortunately doing a lot of fun things is rather exhausting.
Fortunately I am, on the whole, sleeping quite well.
Unfortunately my Spanish teacher forgot I only drink decaf coffee and made me two fully 'cafinated' coffees last week, and I had a terrible night's sleep (or lack of it) trying to climb down off the ceiling.
Etc. etc.
So – here we go with the update on the health front: About three weeks after my methotrexate increase in May I started to feel much better – go methotrexate! All those 'regular' niggly aches in my hands and feet were spirited away – I was still getting twinges and some knee pain (my knees probably being the worst affected bits of me) but no stiffness and none of that constant, nagging, draining pain. Hurrah! Unfortunately … sorry, just slipped into it there … it's now about twelve weeks later and I'm feeling really pretty rotten. If you're reading this then the chances are that I don't need to describe that rotten feeling – you either know it only too well or you probably know me and I've moaned at you enough already – so suffice it to say I'm just not feeling good!
I'm hoping, and thinking it most likely, that it's a temporary blip rather than that the methotrexate is ALREADY not doing the job.
On top of that I had my annual cholesterol test recently … hmm … suffice it to say I am now SERIOUSLY on a diet!😦 It's very boring – actually that's not really true – there's a lot of GREAT and tasty food out there that's fine for dieting, including much delicious fruit – but remember being a kid and having plenty of toys and games and friends, but you're BORED and you DON'T WANT ANY OF THOSE? Well that's how I feel right now about peipono melon and strawberries and lovely home-grown courgettes (zucchini) and all the other apparently delicious things in the fridge! I want caaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaake! But fortunately (sorry!) the weight is coming off so that's encouraging me to avoid the cake and stick to the melon! Also I do NOT want to be on Statins at 46!!
And so to cats – it's been absolutely ages since I mentioned my cats (or indeed my poor hubby, but he might have to wait for another post!) They are still, of course, a central part of my life (as are you hubby-dear, before you read this and complain) and in fact we may have to rename Enormous Cat as Mr. Handsome, as he has dieted (or perhaps I should say we have dieted him?) way more successfully than his penguin, so far. I should get encouragement from him – he's ten years younger in sprightliness and joi de vivre, although (like me) he does complain loudly that he's hungry sometimes! And Tiny Cat 2 has really come on – she's gone from being a practically feral scardeycat to a real member of the family – she's even been known to sit on my lap for twenty minute at a time and stay quite happily curled up next to hubby when he's sat down beside her. (Not often – but increasingly.)
Having fun (and occasionally working)
So … the rest of life: I had a lovely visit a few weeks ago to Bro and SIL's new(ish) house in the Midlands – and we've visited some other friends and had some friends visit us; Hubby and I have been doing quite a bit of wildlife surveying which is fun; I've been doing a lot of crochet, trying to get something ready for a competition but I fear it's NOT going to be close to ready – but on the bright side I did get third prize in our local show for my crocheted St. Edwards Crown last month, so that was nice. I have also been trying out 'Canadian smocking' which is fun. Just small samples so far, practising on an old gingham curtain, because that way I don't have to mark out squares on the fabric! I have a cunning plan for a clutch bag based on this technique – but no hurry … and the Spanish is coming on nicely – although to be honest I can understand my Spanish teacher fairly well but plonk me down in Barcelona and ask me to translate and I'm sure I still couldn't understand a word! Still – getting better! And in amongst all this fun, fun, fun – work has, thank goodness, picked up lately, so we're busy there too. No wonder I'm tired!
Phew – sorry that was so rambly – I'm off for a lie down now … although Mr Handsome is trying to persuade me to feed him instead.
But what if …May 17, 2013 at 8:47 pm | Posted in arthrits, rheumatoid arthritis, fibromyalgia, joint pai, Me, rheumatoid arthritis (RA) | 13 Comments

So I'm increasing my methotrexate. Flippers crossed that all will go well, I won't get any nasty side effects (except maybe appetite loss, which would actually be a great benefit!) and it'll keep my disease in control for at least another five years … but what if it doesn't?
Well I asked my consultant this at my last appointment. He'd said, 'I'm happy to increase your methotrexate to 17.5 and then to 20 but after that we'll have to start considering other things if that isn't doing the trick'.
So I asked him point blank what other things? 'Oh' he said airily, 'there are lots of other things available.' Well it's now or never I thought and said what's been on my mind for a while: 'I know about biologics, but I won't qualify for them on the NHS, will I?' He looked a bit startled and then had to admit that no, I didn't stand a chance. With my fabulous blood results that never show anything wrong, I've got no chance of being offered them at all at the moment.
So … where would I go if the methotrexate doesn't work or causes problems? Well, I can add sulfasalazine to the mix and see if that does any good. 'Some people are on three DMARDs' said the consultant, but even he didn't sound really convinced about it.
So what it boils down to is that with the usual NHS foresight, if the methotrexate increase doesn't work and then the sulfasalazine doesn't work, I would have to wait until I was in a really bad way, unable to work, probably unable to walk (given that feet and knee are the worst bits of me) before they'd even deign to consider me for other treatments. As usual, let's not make the effort to keep people OK and working – let's wait until they're falling apart before helping, even though surely doing it that backwards way doubtless ends up costing 'the system' more in the end!
Well, back to crossing those flippers and hoping it never comes to that!
You? Arthritis? Aren't you a bit young?May 2, 2013 at 9:37 pm | Posted in arthrits, rheumatoid arthritis, fibromyalgia, joint pai, rheumatoid arthritis (RA) | 10 Comments

You know, when I was first diagnosed with rheumatoid arthritis six years ago, when I was 39, comments like that used to really annoy me. I lost count of the number of people who said things like 'Oh, aren't you a bit young for that? My granny has that. She's lost some weight lately though and feels so much better.'
'Why do people have to make dumb comments like that?' I'd wonder. So I'd try educating them – I'd patiently explain that what I had was rheumatoid arthritis, an autoimmune disease where my body has decided it's a neat idea to attack its own joints, whereas what their granny had was probably osteoarthritis.
My favourite response to that was 'Oh no – she had a big bowl of cereal every day and had really strong bones.' So I then had to explain that osteoarthritis was 'wear and tear' arthritis, and what they were thinking of with the milk was osteoporosis, which is a reduction in bone density that can lead to fractures amongst other things, and which can (maybe … sometimes) be avoided by a good calcium intake.
Usually, with a few deep breaths and counts to ten, I would manage an explanation that convinced them that granny and I didn't have the same thing – but it did used to drive me nuts.
Now, seven years on, I'm 45, overweight, look 50 on a bad day, and nobody says 'Aren't you too young for that?' any more.
I kind of miss it.
Niggles and GrumblesFebruary 13, 2013 at 10:02 pm | Posted in arthrits, rheumatoid arthritis, fibromyalgia, joint pai | 6 Comments

I've got grumbley hands and feet. I'm not sure that I'd use this description to the rheumatologist mind you, but it seems to fit. I'm not in agony; in fact,I'm not even in constant pain, but if I overdo it then the hands and feet … and knee of course, how could I forget the knee … grumble!
I've been getting a lot more grumbling going on over the last few weeks than I've had for ages. I think it all started with the flare that I had between Christmas and New Year, and there have been niggles ever since.
It doesn't seem to matter what I'm doing – and in fact my hands have been better today, back at work and typing, than they were over the four-day weekend I've just had. (Fabulous birthday weekend away, but that's a whole 'nother story!)
At least I'm not grumbling much about work right now – we've had two weeks of it being dead quiet, and now it's gone manically busy! It would be lovely it was a constant steady flow, but I'm much happier with it busy and buzzing than dead as a dodo.
Well, I don't have a rheumatology appointment until May, and things are nowhere near bad enough to make me subject myself to one earlier, so I suppose by then the grumbles will either have done what they usually do miraculously in time for a rheumy appointment, disappeared – or they'll be bad enough that I'll be able to have a proper grumble to the doc about them! In the meantime I shall just grin and bear it … or possibly grumble and bear it.
PIP gives me the pip!February 1, 2013 at 6:20 pm | Posted in arthrits, rheumatoid arthritis, fibromyalgia, joint pai | 2 Comments
Tags: arthritis, Arthritis Care, Disability, Disability Living Allowance, DLA, Motability, MP, NHS, nurse, Personal Independence Payment, PIP
The Disability Living Allowance in the UK is being replaced by PIP – the Personal Independence Payment; double-speak if ever I heard it! Everyone who currently claims DLA will have to be re-assessed for PIP, and Arthritis Care estimates that 42% of people who can currently get a car through the Motability scheme and higher-rate DLA will lose their cars through PIP.
At the same time I have just heard that the district nurses in a region near to us are no longer going to be doing what district nurses do, visiting people in their homes! So people are going to lose cars and then find themselves unable even to see a nurse. Apparently if people absolutely cannot, by any other means, get into the surgery, they will be provided with a courtesy car. I'll be interested to see how that works out, and how much it costs, considering the district nurses only ever visited the people who couldn't get into the surgery anyway!
The other thing that PIP is going to do to 'save money' is to change the current DLA walking test from inability to walk 50 metres 'reliably, repeatedly, safely and in a timely fashion', to someone who can't walk 20 metres 'reliably'. Reference to repeatability has notably been removed, so that anyone who can walk 20 metres on the day of their test will presumably not get PIP, even though with things like RA or MS, one might be able to walk a mile one day and no where the next.
2o metres is patently absurd; it seems to suggest that so long as someone can walk as far as the corner of their road or a neighbour's house then they are fit enough to fend for themselves. According to the MP briefing prepared by a campaign group that Arthritis care are involved in, the 20m has not been based on any medical or scientific evidence; so it's clearly a cynical decision to save money.
But in reality, much like the district nurses, how much money will it save? People who have their independence taken away from them will obviously be calling more on public services for help. The money will be being spent; just not from the same budget pot.
Who is this going to help?
Agree? Please write to your MP and tell them what you think and why. You can use the Arthritis Care Hardest Hit Campaign tool to help. All you have to do is put in your name and address; the tool will find your MP, produce a letter, which you can edit if you wish, and then you just press send to get it emailed over. It takes seconds – and it could make a real difference.

A new drug target identified for RAJanuary 31, 2013 at 10:12 pm | Posted in arthrits, rheumatoid arthritis, fibromyalgia, joint pai, rheumatoid arthritis (RA) | 1 Comment
Tags: anti-TNF, arthritis, health, IRHOM2, medicine, R.A., RA, rhematoid arthritis, rheumatoid, Rheumatoid arthritis, rheumatoid arthritis (RA), rheumatology, science, TNF, TNF alpha, tumour necrosis factor
A protein called IRHOM2 has been identified as a possible new target for drugs aimed at treating RA, and could be useful for those who do not respond to anti-TNFs or even eventually replace anti-TNFs altogether. The full article on IRHOM2 can be found here, but here's a short summary.
TNF or tumour necrosis factor has a useful purpose in the body; it is a signalling protein and it signals the body to produce a protective inflammatory response. Thus if a part of you is infected, TNF starts the process of inflammation, which takes immune response cells to the appropriate area in the blood, and they start to attack the disease-causers. In this case inflammation is a good thing.
However, when too much TNF is produced, immune cells start to act on things they shouldn't, like our joints – leading to RA.
Anti-TNFs attack TNFs directly, and do a mighty fine job for many people, but they are toxic and can have nasty side effects.
IRHOM2 is a protein that helps to release TNF from where it sits harmlessly and inactively on the surface of cells, so attacking IRHOM2 should have the same effect as attacking TNF – reducing in TNF release and therefore reduction in inappropriately active immune cells, and so reduction in RA symptoms.
It is hoped that drugs targeting IRHOM2 would be less toxic, because they will only block TNF release from the specific cells that contribute to joint damage, and they could be an alternative for those who don't respond well to anti-TNFs.
There is, of course, a long way to go. This is just the identification of a possible target. The next step is to find something that will actually block IRHOM2 and be safe to use in patients. Then there will be the long, slow plod (quite necessary for safety reasons!) through clinical trials, with no doubt a few failures along the way – but some years down the line this could be a real breakthrough. Let's hope so!
p.s. I do hope this makes sense! I'm really, really tired and I haven't had hubby proofread it yet!

From their founding in 1998 to the release of this album in 2003, the Casket Lottery have recorded over 50 songs, including many that have appeared on 7" records and compilations. Possiblies and Maybes takes those rare, elusive tracks and combines them onto one compact disc, along with six additional tracks that are entirely new. The songs, both new and old, showcase the traditional Casket Lottery sound, meaning that there is a good range of poppy tunes combined with some more abrasive guitar numbers. All, however, fall within the emo genre one way or the other. With thoughtful lyrics and endearing vocals, this Kansas City three-piece can easily work its songs into the minds of fans anywhere. In many ways, this album serves as not only a great introduction for those unfamiliar with the band, but also perhaps the only necessary purchase for those who find themselves to be casual fans. ~ Kurt Morris

Welcome to Lost Acres Orchard
So, after losing the peach crop to the February deep-freeze, we are happy to have some apples on the trees. The crop is not spectacular this year - there was a frost when then buds were swelling, and rain when they blossomed, but such is life in farming!
PLEASE NOTE: Due to the limited apple crop and the volume of visitors we have had this September, our Pick-Your-Own Apples will likely end October 1st. We will continue to offer wagon rides through the orchard on the weekends until Halloween, and we have a small selection of local pumpkins, gourds and squash for sale.
Our bakery/farm store is open year round, and we'll be serving lunch on the porch through the end of October, weather permitting.
Our porch lunch menu includes wraps, salads, soups, quiche, flatbread panini, chicken pot pie, desserts and more. Hot mulled cider, fresh brewed iced tea and our own lemonade too!
We are open six days a week (closed Mondays) this fall. We will be open on Monday, Colombus Day, and will be closed on Labor Day.
Thank you for visiting our website. We tend to update our Facebook page more frequently than this site, so please visit us there for the latest on what's happening and what's cooking.
For weekly updates via email, please send a request to email@example.com and we will sign you up for our Orchard Newsletter.
OPEN Tuesday - Sunday 9am - 5pm
Apple Picking (as available) daily 10-4
(closed Mondays)
Lunch Served on the porch, 11:30 -2:30
We're on the same street, and certainly enjoy their wine and winery, but Lost Acres Vineyard and Lost Acres Orchard are entirely separate businesses. Of course, we certainly recommend visiting both of us while you're in the neighborhood.
To contact the vineyard, please visit Lost Acres Vineyard

It is awesome not only does it have action bt it also has comedy and some family essence to it as well. All the episodes are funny are great and they are sure to make you laugh. The animator is great all drawing are perfectly done. I really recommend this anime if you are looking for action, comedy, a family feel, and some light romance.

1 out of 1 people found this review helpful:Beelzebub Review ....Well, there isn't much to say besides it's a great anime. Everything all awesome. Except that last two episodes. I didn't really like how they forced the ending on this anime. Starting and ending theme songs where great, characters were funny, storyline was good besides the part they forced ended it.
2 out of 2 people found this review helpful:Not my Go-To for Slapstick, But Still a Good SeriesI wanted to like this series more than I did in the end (To Ep 60.) I liked the humor in the beginning, but it is a familiar humor and maybe too familiar for me. If I am going to watch comedy about delinquents there's Cromarite High School and for the random humor I have Gintama. The twist with this anime is that a delinquent is raising a demon prince who's going to destroy the human world. That ...Read more

Every episode I cracked up into tears! Plus there aren't many anime that has this unique story line. I recommend this to everyone!! You won't regret it!
3 out of 3 people found this review helpful:Overall great, small details bothers me, one of my favourite animes.This is easy one of my favourite animes out there today, and I sincerely recommend anyone watch this if you want a good laugh. The tempo of the anime is very well balanced, with none of the fights draggin out in a silly long way. I also find the characters very lovable and exciting. The biggest positive point I have about the anime is that it differs in story from the manga, but does so in a very ...Read more

Evolvable Systems: From Biology to Hardware

MUXTREE revisited: Embryonics as a reconfiguration strategy in fault-tolerant processor arrays

Embryonics' proposal is to construct arrays of processing elements with self-diagnosis and self-reconfiguration abilities able to tolerate the presence of failing cells in the same fashion as natural cellular systems do. Self-healing mechanisms found in nature and the implicit redundancy of cellular architectures constitute the foundations of embryonic systems' fault tolerance properties. It will be shown in this paper how by incorporating the biological concepts of chromosome and gene, the complexity of the MUXTREE embryonic architecture can be simplified, in comparison with the previous version. It is argued that by assuming a broader meaning for the concept of evolution it possible to classify embryonic arrays and other adaptable systems as evolvable.

Slain teen's mom satisfied with guilty verdict
CLAYTON COUNTY, Ga. - A man has been found guilty of murdering a teenager who wrote in her diary that he had attempted to rape her months before she disappeared.
"It's not over, but at least Candice has gotten some justice," Caffian Hyatt told Channel 2's Tom Jones after the verdict was announced.
Parchment wrote in her diary about how Hickman and Jermaine Robinson tried to rape her in 2010, three months before she disappeared.
"She convicted him in her own words," Hyatt said.
She said it was like her daughter was on the stand when prosecutors read from the diary.
"I was praying," Hyatt said.
Hyatt said her daughter told her about the rape but wouldn't say who the attackers were. Months later, police found the girl's body in a wooded area under a mattress.
Hyatt became emotional and put her head down as the verdict was announced, but Hickman barely moved. He will be sentenced at a later date.
Robinson previously pleaded guilty in the rape case but wasn't charged in the murder case. Hyatt said he should have been.

The Memphis German Club Message Board › German Imports in Memphis
user 83411542
Memphis, TN
Can anyone tell me what sort of "real" German products you can get in Memphis (or maybe what you wish you could get)?
I heard you now have Aldi, what about Lidl or Penny or other stores like that?
Can you get German schnapps, beer, wine, Haribo, etc?
Thanks for any input!
Edited by Frank on Mar 13, 2013 12:05 PM
|Brandon H.
user 10550754
Memphis, TN
Due to what I believe is part of the reality of 21st Century globalization, many of the imported products are not actually imported, but rather manufactured in US-based plants and then labelled as Haribo, Rittersport, etc.
Rittersport is the classic example I often reference and tell people, "look for the label with German writing all over it," for the one with English writing tastes different, despite it saying "product of Germany."
Indeed, the US has Aldi, though I believe it is ALDI Nord and not ALDI Süd, just as Trader Joe's has been in the US for a while now, though owned by ALDI Nord.
To the best of my knowledge, no Lidl or Penny stores have opened here, though I would be surprised if they brought anything new to the US. From my experience, most of these "German products" aren't really what you would eat in Germany, but altered to US taste preferences, which, unfortunately for me at least, happen to be contrary to my German taste preferences.
Last thing to offer some further clarity... when I came back from Germany in Fall 2008 after living there for a year, I went into an ALDI, which was recently opened in the northeastern US. The look of the store was similar to what one would find in Germany, though the products were not. They were, for 95% of cases, American "knock-offs" and not products actually from Germany. Possibly, people will disagree, though this has been the brunt of my experience here and this has not changed after living in South Tyrol for a few months, where tastes were more akin to Germany preferences.
For me, TJMaxx has offered more German labelled and thereby, actual German tasting products from Germany, than anywhere else I have gone. Specialty candy shops in San Francisco would sometimes have what I would call "proper Rittersport", though even this has become harder to find. I have just accepted that I will need to return to Germany to enjoy German tasting food, since it doesn't seem to be in the interest of someone to provide me with anything even close to suitable here in the US.
Possibly, this will answer your questions...

Check out Big Lots, sometimes you can find Jacobs Kaffee there as well as a few other things. My sister says that there is a German deli in Dallas that will do mail order.

Aldi is actually Aldi Sued.
Depending on the products you will get some real german Aldi products (mostly in seasonal items)
or globalized crap. E.g. the chocolate is mostly the real deal made in Germany or Austria, but the Haribo is
made in Turkey, so they could throw in all the chemicals and artificial color Germans won't accept
in theirs. The overall quality is less than what you would expect from Aldi, but it still beats most others.
I am more saddened that stores now sell Beer labeled Beck's or Paulaner but which is brewed in St. Louis.
What I am missing most are good options for bread, rolls an pastries without food coloring (they even throw yellow in croissants...)

Fresh Market offers plenty of imports, though much of it seasonal. Chocolates from Germany can be found all over Memphis. Kroger has an international section, best in the Byhalia Road store, although limited. I've never seen anything really German in Aldi's, except for Marzipan and a few other seasonal chocolates. In fact, I don't like any of their other foods - all seem ultra processed. For good bread, almost identical to broetchen, get the Alexia white rolls in the frozen section of Whole Foods, and sometimes Fresh Market, and often Target Superstore in Cordova. They are all natural, have a great crust and soft insides and are amazing. Whole Foods has some other German items, as well. While TJ Maxx has a few, and so does Marshall's, they are often not fresh. For pastries without food coloring or real butter croissants, go to Whole Foods. They also have the German Rye bread, pumpernickel, etc. Good Luck!

The new Kroger's (Poplar Plaza) has a German section in their international aisle. I didn't look too carefully to see if they were 'real' German products, but the pumpernickel and other breads were the same as I have bought at Big Lots.

Ready for my close-up
Like most people who take food seriously enough to enroll in culinary school, I care about how my food looks. It needs to be interesting to the eye. For a long time before I even considered pursuing a career in the food industry, I was drawn to beautifully designed and photographed cookbooks or food magazines. I would flip through a book like Tartine and wish I knew how to make everything I saw.
Now that I am studying Basic and Classical Cakes, I'm realizing how difficult it is not just to make something taste good but to make it look gorgeous. Our class works in a sort of daily alternating schedule–one half of the room works all day on production of cakes and icings and so on, while the other half of the room works on assembling cakes that were baked the previous day. The following day, of course, the two halves of the room switch roles. When I saw the syllabus, I fully expected my cake assembly days to be a breeze–I've always been good with my hands and have a smattering of architecture courses in my academic background, so designing and/or decorating a cake did not intimidate me.
Little did I know. Making it pretty is hard! My first cake took me about two and a half hours to assemble, and Chef told us that by the end of this course we should be able to do that very same assembly in thirty minutes. Her demo of the process made it look effortless. But when it was my turn, I made mistakes like it was my job. Then again, as a student, I suppose making mistakes and learning from them is my job at this point.
I try to take a photo of everything I bake. Partly because I'm interested in food photography and food styling as future career possibilities, and partly because the visual aspect of food is just so important to me. No matter how good the cake tastes, if it doesn't look appealing, I don't feel it's right. And while nothing I've made here has looked stunning enough to belong in a cookbook, the mocha buttercream torte I put together yesterday (the second of my attempts at cake assembly) was photogenic enough to make me proud. The rest of the class made equally nice versions of the same cake, and with another week of class to practice, our cakes will only get more and more photo-worthy.

Yeah, it should just ignore failures to write the statcache. I think for trees opened readonly it's still useful to try to update the cache so that it can accelerate access where possible. -- Martin
