Where Rivers (Creeks, Prongs, etc.) Run Through... and Beyond It
Here is a partial list of streams that flow past the boundary of Great Smoky Mountains National Park. In addition to the waters outside the park lying within state, municipal or other jurisdictions, some are under under private ownership. Access to private property is a privilege, not a right. See very important notes on the topic "Access To Private Land For Fishing Streams and Rivers" on TWRA's web site. (Scroll down once the page opens.) Similar guidance is likely available through the N.C. Wildlife Resources Commission site.

Trout like fall colors too
Just wondering if the rainbows might be moving further down the Little Pigeon toward the Greenbrier entrance during the reprieve from leaf lookers and rock chuckers. There are some nice cabins in Pittman Center across the road that may have vacancies for a change this time of year. I'm afraid I have exceeded my vacation budget ceiling for this year.

Cosby Creek is stocked as well, beginning immediately after it departs the national park. I have several cabins on Cosby Creek several miles downstream from the NP, and there are always plenty of nice stockers to catch.
The locals, however, fish Cosby Creek for food as much or more as for sport, so the areas that are public can get cleaned out pretty quickly.

As I've mentioned before, it's a drag being on (and writing for) the Internet around Christmastime. Most people are too busy spending time with their families (gross!) to bother with updating their own websites, and the articles you do find are the same, tired Christmas-themed articles you see every single year. News stops, the Internet stops. The whole net just becomes a massive collection of Christmas articles.
Well, let me help you out. This year, instead of going all over the Internet and reading everything you come across, I'll save us all some time and just tell you the kind of Christmas articles you're going to see. This year and every year. Articles like ...
4"Stop Making Christmas Illegal!"
Sounds Like:
"Look, all I'm saying is, you can't walk down the street with a smile on your face because your Christmas Spirit might offend some of the left-wing Holinazis. It's political correctness run amuck, that's all I'm sayin'."
The Articles:
I think one year, in one town, in one store -- years ago -- employees were instructed to say "Happy Holidays" instead of "Merry Christmas." And we, as a nation, have been paying for it ever since.
This is what Photos.com thinks "War on Christmas" is, and I have no reason to argue.
It's why every year, without fail, you'll see a dozen "War on Christmas" articles show up starting in early December. Writers complaining that everyone's gotten so politically correct that they're afraid to hang Christmas lights. Pundits feeling like they're being persecuted for buying Christmas trees (In Jesus Christ's America, dammit!). Desperate politicians wondering "why our children can't [something something] Christmas [something something] schools, but meanwhile [something something] gay people!"
"Jesus, Santa Claus, America: Gooood. Muslims, Tattoos, Homosexuals: Scaaary."
Fox News has an entire page of their website devoted to the War on Christmas. One of their headlines says "School Bans Santa Over Religious Concerns!" If you click and read Fox's mini summation of the article, you get a story about how, since 1960, firefighters would dress up as Santa and hang out with children, until this year, when it was banned. Which, yes, is ridiculous. It's so ridiculous, in fact, that I clicked even further to read more of the story and found out that the ban has since been rescinded, and that the firefighters are free to dress as Santa and give presents to children all they want. But the headline is still "Santa Claus Banned From Schools" and the title of the page on which it appears is War on Christmas! Because a Massachusetts superintendent hastily making a stupid move is clearly an act of religious war.
You know what I've never heard? Anyone, in my life, attack someone else for saying the words "Merry Christmas." Not once. I've never seen someone ask someone else to take down a Christmas decoration for being offensive, even if some houses look objectively terrible. And I have never seen or heard someone say, "Excuse me, I know your son is 9, but he is not allowed to celebrate, be happy about or be aware of Christmas as long as he is in a public school. That is why I gave him detention when he wore a Christmas sweater."
But do you know what I do hear and read? Hundreds of "War on Christmas" articles and videos from writers and pundits who feel like they're the most put-upon class of people in human history simply because they want the freedom to celebrate Christmas. A freedom that I have never seen anyone try to actively suppress. I don't even understand someone who can live in the same world as I do, where radio stations play round-the-clock Christmas music, TV networks count down the 12 days of Christmas in the form of Christmas movies, houses are decorated and sales and Christmas promotions start as far back as October, and then say "This War on Christmas is UNACCEPTABLE, it's like living in Communist China, for Christ's sake!" I don't know if it's ignorance or just some elaborate prank. I saw Christmas promotions at a JC Penny before Halloween even happened this year!
These people are just feeling persecuted and hurt, I guess. Because life is always hardest on white, upper-class Christians, especially at Christmas time.
3"Stop Putting Christmas EVERYWHERE!"
Sounds Like:
"I don't know if it's ignorance or just some elaborate prank. I saw Christmas promotions at a JC Penny before Halloween even happened this year! Waahh, I'm a baby."
The Article:
Ugh. Boooo. The writers who publish those "Why can't I celebrate Christmas if I want to?" articles and the writers who publish these "Why must I be bombarded by Christmas EVERY SINGLE DAY?" articles should just get it over with and fuck already.
I get that America makes way too big a deal out of Christmas. And I get that it's totally unreasonable that we start preparing for it earlier and earlier every single year. But the thing is, everybody gets that. There's no reason to write articles or go on the news and ask "Are we celebrating Christmas too soon?" Everyone who lives and exists in the world has that exact same observation. That's like a standup comedian whose entire set is "You know who's different from men? Women, am I right? That guy knows what I'm talking about. That woman, too. Anyway, that's my time, you've all been great."
"And can we talk about the DMV for a second? I don't care for the lines, but I guess they provide a good service. You've been terrific!"
If the observation you're making is the same one that your fellow students make, or the same one that your coworkers make around the office, there is absolutely no reason to publish an article on the subject as if you were the only one who noticed.

On February 7, 1984, President Ronald Reagan withdrew the U.S. Marines from Lebanon—an action that was "perhaps the most purposeful and consequential foreign-policy decision of his presidency," Micah Zenko writes. In this article, Zenko discusses the unclear and unachievable mission of the United States in Lebanon, and Reagan's subsequent decision to withdraw.

"[T]he number of medium-to-large civil wars under way—there are six in which more than 1,000 people died last year—is low by the standards of the period. This is because they are coming to an end a little sooner. The average length of civil wars dropped from 4.6 to 3.7 years after 1991, according to Kristian Skrede Gleditsch, a professor at the University of Essex.
Mr. Gleditsch is one of a growing number of political scientists studying civil wars. The field, long overshadowed by studies of superpower conflict, is coming into its own. Its participants do not claim that all civil wars are the same—the range of causes and types of conflict is obvious. But the sheer number of civil wars allows scholars to attempt, at least, a quantitative approach to the factors that affect the wars' outcomes."

BLM Partnership Restores Landscape in Kane County
Kanab, Utah—Beginning Jan. 20, the Bureau of Land Management (BLM), Color Country District will implement a 2,146-acre cooperative project with the Utah Partners for Conservation and Development (UPCD). This statewide consortium of local sportsmen groups, landowners, and other state and federal partners will work to enhance public lands located west of Highway 89 and north of Hancock Road near Kanab, UT.
The project improves watershed conditions, restores mule deer habitat, and reduces hazardous fuels for enhanced wildfire protection. Operations begin with aerial seeding to increase the presence of vegetation designed to meet landscape objectives. This is followed by removal of pinyon and juniper using "bullhogs," also known as mechanical shredders. The project is scheduled to be completed May 2014.
While the project is active, please adhere to safety signs surrounding the treatment area. For more information and/or to add your email address to our local information contact list, please contact Nick Howell at (435)865-3026 or Paul Briggs at (435)865-3002.
Follow Us on Twitter @BLMUtah
The BLM manages more than 245 million acres of public land, the most of any Federal agency. This land, known as the National System of Public Lands, is primarily located in 12 Western states, including Alaska. The BLM also administers 700 million acres of sub-surface mineral estate throughout the nation. The BLM's mission is to sustain the health, diversity, and productivity of Americas public lands for the use and enjoyment of present and future generations. In Fiscal Year 2015, the BLM generated $4.1 billion in receipts from activities occurring on public lands.

text: Hey Mamas out there! Question...MY 5 month old started grabbing at the sweet potatoes on my plate so I began to put some mashed sweet potatoes on his bumbo tray to play with. Today I whimsically added some hot water to the mash and made it more like a puree and fed him a bit with a spoon...I do however feel guilty about this because while my sons Ped says he recommends starting solids at 4 months i know its best to EBF until six months of age...that being said, he seemed to thoroughly enjoy the bit of mash he got from the spoon and tried his hardest to eat some from his own fingers. I should add my son had silent reflux and wakes 4-6 times a night to comfort eat (he barely sucks for 3-4 minutes before he is asleep again) so the GI suggested we try an ounce on BM with a teaspoon of oatmeal in a bottle which I tried for the first time to see if his night wakings lessen in amount...I, once again, feel guilty. A part of me enjoys saying hello a couple times in the night because these nursings are so quiet and cuddly (during the say he nurses for 5-10 minutes and is usually SO distracted so he is very fidgety). Has anyone tried e bit of cereal before bed and seen an improvement in night wakings (preferably those who have reflux babies)? I don't want to get a slap on the wrist but if anyone disapproves of this I'd like to hear why and how long to wait before trying again? I'm not in a rush to start weaning but I am returning to school Jan 3 (a few days before he turns 6 months) so I was wondering if solids would ease him being away from me (he is VERY attached to me...we are in loooove :-) Please no one suggest co-sleeping...we tried bed-sharing and it was disastrous because he nursed every 45 minutes. he is now in a crib not 2 feet away from my bed and a small part of me wonders if he awakens to nurse because he knows im there...either way I'd appreciate if the wakings were more in the 2-4 range! sorry for the long post...please comment and tell me your experience with solids/sleep! thanks!

The bell finally tolled for the last of the "American Idol" wild-card picks on Thursday as Stefano Langone's survival story came to an end.
Langone was one of the feel-good tales of the audition season. He survived a near-fatal auto accident less than two years ago that forced him to re-learn how to walk. It would have been hard to guess that he still bears scars from that crash as he performed on the "Idol" stage, as he embraced the chance to be what passed for the sultry male crooner of season 10.
But Langone was never really in a position to contend, and he needed every bit of those skills at coming back from challenging circumstances to stick around this long. He wasn't one of the five men with the highest number of votes in the semifinals, and had to survive a sing-off to earn the wild-card spot. He had been in the bottom three in three of the previous four weeks entering Thursday's show, and did not look at all surprised when he learned he was the seventh contestant eliminated.Story: Will Jennifer Lopez return to 'Idol' next season?

James Durbin, however, was crushed. The resident metalhead showed a softer side by crying during Langone's farewell montage, and then hurried onstage to pick Langone up and envelop him in a bear hug. But Durbin doesn't need to worry too much, since he'll be seeing his buddy again up close and personal in a few weeks when the "Idol" tour kicks off.
Dodging a bullet
The folks who run "Idol" were probably happy that it was Langone who went home rather than Jacob Lusk, who was also among the lowest vote-getters. The elimination avoided what might have been a controversial result.
Lusk had to fight through a technical glitch at the start of his Wednesday performance, and as a result earned a bit of criticism from the judges for the stumble. Granted, it was nothing too harsh — if you expected otherwise, you haven't watched the show much this season — but it sure didn't help his cause.
Though Lusk mentioned it briefly Wednesday after he finished his solo, nobody else made a big deal of it, so it sounded a little like he was whining. Host Ryan Seacrest asked about it again Thursday and gave it the credibility it needed ... 20-some hours after it might have made a difference in the voting. Thanks for nothing, Ryan!
Not that Lusk sang well enough to feel secure, but everyone probably feels a little better now that he'll get another week. However, he did have to stay in the seats of shame longer than Haley Reinhart, who got the news that she was in the bottom three one second and was sent right back to safety the next. Jennifer "Save the Girls!" Lopez had to be thrilled with that one.Another TV talent show for J.Lo?
Queen Amidala herself?
The big names appearing on the "Idol" concert stage on Thursday (with all apologies to season seven winner David Cook) were Katy Perry and Kanye West. They performed "E.T" as Perry warbled on about an alien lover, dressed in an outfit and makeup that looked like something out of "Star Wars' " Queen Amidala's wardrobe. Unlike the last time Perry was on the show and brought an Adam Lambert cape, she did not wear anything depicting her favorite contestant. At least, nowhere visible.

West may have been a surprise to see on the stage, but given that Steven Tyler forces the "Idol" censors to always be on their toes, it's not like the rapper would do anything they hadn't seen before. Sadly, he did not push the microphone away from Langone and say that while he'd let Langone finish, someone else should have gone home instead. An opportunity lost.
Rater: See how readers scored Wednesday's performances
The "American Idol" group sings are rarely ever things of beauty, but the producers keep trotting them out every week anyway. The performances are apparently more appealing than the thought of having to write more witty banter for the Ryan and the judges.
This season's group sings have been mostly worse than usual, however, because the male voices don't play well with others. That was most noticeable on Wednesday night, when Paul McDonald seemed to be singing an entirely different song than the five women he was sharing the stage with.
But as if trying not to make McDonald feel too bad, Scotty McCreery, Casey Abrams and Durbin did a painful rendition of Coldplay's "Viva La Vida" Thursday. Three totally different voices and styles + one challenging song = painful television.

The US match was held in Milwaukee. Hanley had been getting pre-publicity as one of the big stars, but when they got to the USA, he announced he would not be speaking to the media. Les Boyd, on the other hand, did speak to the media, informing them that he was going to get Hanley. And, being a man of his word, he did!
Wigan won, 12:5, in front of about 7 and a half thousand extremely impressed spectators and, this being Rugby League, nothing whatsoever was done to capitalise on the event. Here's the clip:

The Cowon J3 is far from being abandoned by the user interface modding community (and the S9 and X7 benefit from being compatible). Well known Korean UCI designer Asurada presents a teaser video of his newest creation, ASUCI v2.
Using 45 degree tilted interface elements would usually be just a gimmick, but Asurada obviously put a lot of thought into the design and usability of his theme. Next to ergonomic left-handed usage I especially like the increased length of the slider bar, allowing for more precise scrolling in a track. It seems to hit a quite sweet middle ground between a portrait- and a landscape-oriented interface.

Our Story
Founded in 1993 by Mark Allen, himself an environmental graduate, ALLEN & YORK was one of the first recruitment consultancies to specialise across sustainability.
An entrepreneur, inspired by his passion for the environment, Mark began to form what would become lifelong partnerships with environmental consultancies across the UK; conservation, environmental land management, ecology were typical areas in which we built the foundations of our specialist knowledge.
Driven to serve the wider sustainability community, we were quick to build teams across health, safety and well-being; as well as, sustainable design and planning throughout the late 90s.
The early 2000s heralded increased concerns about climate change and the importance of developing the world's renewable energy capacity. In response, we launched our energy team in 2006, which has grown to encompass expertise across; wind, wave, tidal, biofuels, as well as energy in buildings; compliance and energy efficiency.
Developing partnerships with global utilities, developers and manufacturers enabled us to develop a strong foothold in the more mature European markets.
Today we are a multilingual, international company, with operations across the UK, Europe and Middle East. Many of the junior recruiters who joined us at the beginning of our journey are now our Directors and Senior Managers, with 15 years+ of sector experience, technical knowledge and networks that are second to none.
Our teams have a passion for sustainability, many have environmental degrees, and we all have a shared vision to enable companies across the globe to move towards a more sustainable model in the protection of our planet and people.
Growth continues within ALLEN & YORK to reflect the developments within global sustainability.
In the 21st Century the big questions of energy resources, social and human impact, global agriculture, drive us forward with renewed fervour.
Innovations across the waste and recycling industry; waste mining, recycled manufacturing and biofuels; as well as corporate sustainability, social impact, community engagement and sustainable procurement, particularly across emerging global markets, enable us to have teams focused on sourcing the talent required to steer businesses towards a greener future.
We have lost none of Mark's original passion.
We are still fully committed to deliver sustainable recruitment solutions, ethically, honestly and transparently, and to be THE leading sustainability recruitment consultancy, worldwide.

Urban Environmental Program in New England
Since its inception, the UEP used a bottom-up approach. The UEP team developed a model to show this approach and how it can produce measurable results and create a sustainable infrastructure to ensure community involvement and continued improvements in the future. The model is called the UEP Community Development Pyramid and was unveiled at EPA's National Community Involvement Conference in Kansas City, MO in May 1999.
The model uses a five-phase approach to build local capacity from the ground up, beginning with the identification of issues and stakeholders, then helps develop partnerships and community awareness through each step of the process. The ultimate goal of this model is a sustainable community infrastructure that can access information and leverage resources to address environmental and public health concerns without permanent EPA financial assistance.
Click each phase for additional information.
Phase 1: Understanding the Problems & Identifying Stakeholders
This phase is the most critical step in a community-based approach to environmental protection. During this phase, the UEP must establish a strong foundation of community stakeholder relationships and begin engaging groups and listening to community priorities. It is also crucial that the community's greatest environmental and public health concerns and issues are prioritized and an honest commitment will be made to work in partnership to solve these problems equitably. The relationships created in Phase I serve as a foundation for future partnerships, collaborations, and projects. Activities include listening to community stakeholder concerns, facilitating public conferences to gather ideas, building relationships with a broad range of community members, and establishing credibility for the UEP in the community. Funding in this phase should support local community-based organizations that are working with residents on environment and public health issues. EPA technical resources are introduced in this phase.
Phase 2: Building Community Capacity & Developing Local Partnerships
During this phase, the UEP begins a focused effort to build a dialogue among stakeholders around a common topic or issue, facilitate working relationships, and start to fill information and data gaps. Effective methods of stakeholder involvement include convening task forces, developing coalitions, establishing networks, and facilitating group meetings. Success in this phase hinges on equal stakeholder involvement, and this goal is oftentimes extremely challenging given inherent disparities in interests, objectives, influences, or resources among different partners. However, these challenges have a much better opportunity for resolution when stakeholders are united by a common goal—such as preventing lead poisoning in children, eliminating urban vacant lots, or restoring a river or wetland to a swimmable, fishable condition. The UEP continues to leverage EPA technical resources through this phase—including supporting sampling efforts to understand the extent of perceived and existing contamination, or starting risk assessment and risk communication. A benefit to community partners is training to share information and provide the tools needed to better under-stand and resolve problems including GIS mapping, soil sampling techniques, grant management, process management, strategic planning and environmental or public health classes.
Phase 3: Leveraging Public Resources To Improve Public Health & The Environment
Once concerns have been raised, common threads identified, and different stakeholders are starting to work together, leveraging and directing public resources through collaborative projects must focus on achieving measurable results. Typically, this can be achieved through a partnership grant which allows stakeholders to share in a common success, such as turning a vacant lot into a community park in a neighborhood or reaching out to educate teachers in a "Train-the Trainers" program on lead poisoning prevention. In this phase, funding should support multi-stakeholder collaborative projects that are designed to accomplish positive, measurable improvements to public health and the environment. Projects should also have in-kind or other matching support from a range of organizations. UEP's role in this phase begins by a strong personal investment of the CPM to bring resources to the table to ensure that projects can be completed effectively, and it transitions into other stakeholders at the table supplementing the CPM efforts and position within the process. By the end of Phase 3, the UEP will leverage a broad range of internal EPA resources and assist community partners to ensure that other federal and state resources (technical, human, and fiscal) are identified to pursue together in Phase 4.
Phase 4: Effective Partnerships
As projects are completed, partners share in measurable successes and start to see meaningful results from their partner-ships and coalitions. At this point, the coalitions that have been supported through direct UEP and other EPA funding and technical resources have measurable environmental or public health results and a solid foundation to secure funding through other federal or non-federal sources to sustain work. These partnerships can take several different forms, including: local government & non-profit; public & private; state government agency & non-profit; inter-governmental; or other combinations of partners. The key to partnerships at this phase of the pyramid is that the organizations can demonstrate sufficient results and successes thus allowing the partnership to secure funding and resources to diversify and expand on the projects that the UEP supported during Phase 3. UEP financial resources are less intensive at this point in the model and continue to leverage internal technical resources as requested by the partnerships.
Phase 5: Healthy Communities
At this stage in the pyramid, the UEP plays a less visible role at the table in further developing stakeholder partnerships and no longer serves as the lead partner for projects. In fact, the ultimate success of this model is that by Phase 5 the UEP has transitioned out of a prominent and constant role at the table and the work will continue forward with community stakeholders at the lead. This phase indicates that the stakeholders are working together effectively and successfully securing resources to implement the strategy required to resolve their most critical environment and public health problems. This bottom-up model for community infrastructure development and environmental results only remains sustainable when Phase 5 at the top of the pyramid is reached. The UEP Community Development Pyramid demonstrates that this phase by phase approach produces significant, measurable environmental results that require minimal EPA resource investment and yields a maximum return on agency resource investment in urban areas.

Wonderful travel mirror
By Denise
from Mountain Iron, MN
I bought this for a gift for my husband prior to traveling out of the country. It was the perfect gift for him! Very sturdy and easy to mount, it packed well too. The light on it is intensely bright. It did turn on during transit while traveling, but with brand new batteries in it, it was fine. We could have removed them but it does take a small screwdriver and we just didn't have one handy at the time.

Not Reliable
By Now Shaving in the Dark
from Valparaiso, IN
Unfortunately, I bought it for the bright light while shaving and once I mounted it permanently to my tile wall the light switch stopped working. Worked well for one shave.The name isn't indicative of its reliability..."The Best".
Bottom Line No, I would not recommend this to a friend
Hammacher Schlemmer Response: We apologize for your experience with this product. The Hammacher Schlemmer Institute conducts rigorous, unbiased testing to select the best product within a given category. During testing, the light switch functioned without fault. Please contact us if you would like to exchange this product. We can be reached at 1-800-321-1484.
The mirror works well and gets the job done
By Pops
from Lake Charles, LA
Very clear, fog free as claimed and works well. I gave it four stars because I think it could be better. The light is bright, but will not turn off if damp and if the image was magnified it would be more pleasant to the eyes. It is very light duty, but gets the job done and I am pleased.
Excellent Mirror!
By Dlinz13
from Kansas City, KS
I am a disabled person and wanted to find a good mirror for shaving in the shower, and I have been very pleased. The image is extremely clear, and the light is very bright. Built solidly! Overall it is an excellent mirror!
By Valsold
from Waterloo Region Canada
Bought this for my husband to put up in our nearly designed and completed en-suite bath for him to use while shaving in the shower. Have tried others which were met with disappointment but his one is perfect! Works and looks nice too!
Fogless Shaving Mirror
By Daywalker
from Albuquerque, NM
This product works exactly as well as described. My only complaint is that the LED light shines right in my eyes. So, I just don't use it.
What a flop!
By JJ
from Charlotte, NC
Mounted mirror in my shower - put batteries in as instructed. The lights do not work - the mirror fogs up! Typical hype! The darn thing doesn't work as advertised! I was duped!!

Truly Fog Free!
By IggieWan
from Florida
I've had a couple of so called "fog free" shaving mirrors for the shower but this is the first one that works as advertised! The simple process of filling up the reservoir behind the mirror truly makes it fog free. The magnification and LED light are perfect...if you want to shave in the hot shower with a mirror this is the one to buy.

Illinois itself is not especially known for any particular cuisine, but Chicago is another story. Chicago-style pizza and hot dogs anyone?
Chicago-style pizza is deep dish and sometimes described as "stuffed." In Chicago's eternal "Second City" quest to overcome New York City, Chicago-style pizza is offered as a contrast to the wider but thinner-crusted Brooklyn pizza. A Chicago-style pizza stands tall and has broad shoulders.
The Chicago-style hot dog also aims to be original. It's supposed to be steamed or boiled, not roasted or broiled, and ketchup is strictly prohibited. Instead, the poppy seed bun is decked with yellow mustard, onion, pickle relish, a dill pickle spear, tomato slices, peppers and celery salt. There's meat in there somewhere.
You may also have to look for the meat in your Chicago-style pizza. The dish is so deep and there's so much stuff on top, the meat winds up in the middle.
A vendor can slop together a Chicago-style hot dog in a matter of a minute or so, but Chicago-style pizza is no fast food. The thickness requires about 40 minutes of oven baking; when it's done, you are at high risk of a pizza mess if you try to nibble on a piece in your hand. The basic eating method is to sit down with a knife and fork.
Post-War Pizza
Pizza really didn't take off in America until U.S. soldiers returned from Europe after World War II. In Italy, pizza was (and is) most often served as an appetizer. Today, pizza is far more popular in America than in Italy.
A 1956 report in the Chicago Daily News asserts that a chef at Pizzeria Uno, Rudy Malnoti, invented Chicago-style deep dish pizza in 1943. Uno's is now a national chain.
Malnoti's crust, unlike super-thick crusts nowadays that are labeled "deep dish," was not especially thick. The feature of a deep dish pizza is supposed to be a deep dish of toppings, not a regular quantity of toppings placed on a thicker crust. The Chicago-style crust has steep sides and is pre-baked in a deep round pan that is coated with oil for a fried effect, according to The Pizza Gourmet. Cornmeal is vital with the oil, not only for the crust's unique flavor, but also to provide strength.
A Chicago-style pizza chef has many options for toppings.
Malnoti preferred to put mozzarella or provolone on the bottom, in slices rather than shredded, followed by layers of meat with an emphasis on sweet Italian sausage. Next would come the veggies such as onions, mushrooms and bell peppers. After that, Malnoti would add primarily crushed or pureed tomatoes, as opposed to sauce or paste. Cheese would make a comeback for the top layer, with an emphasis on Parmesan, this time shredded so that the tomato mixture and the top cheese would bake together.
A Chicago-style pizza needs to sit for about 15 minutes before it is sliced, and is intended to be eaten warm as opposed to hot. Otherwise, the toppings won't hold firm when sliced and you'll have Chicago-style soup instead of Chicago-style deep dish pizza.

Is there such a thing as too much fruit? My DD would eat it all day long! She will eat a whole entire plum which I think may count as 2 servings . Also will eat about 1/2c of blueberries seems like too much?. I offer it to her 3x per day Breakfast, Snack & after dinner. But of course if she sees the fruit bowl she will just dive right in and help herself. She freaks out at the grocery store in the fruit section because she wants it.
How accurate is the 1tbl. of food = 1 serving???? She seems to eat much more than this? I let her decide when to eat & how much - do I need to step in. I guess it's better than her wanting to eat cookies all day, right? Am I just worried over nothing?

The NHL has canceled 82 regular-season games through Oct. 24 due to a lockout, the organization announced Thursday.
A post on NHL.com said, "The cancellation was necessary because of the absence of a Collective Bargaining Agreement between the NHL Players' Association and the NHL."
The 2012-13 regular season had been scheduled to open Oct. 11.
ESPN.com reported the league and players' association broke off talks Tuesday after only two hours.
The lockout began Sept. 16 over economic issues.

Diplomacy at the End of a Stick
Well, if you have been reading this blog for any length of time you know that I have a special place in my heart for the baseball-mad Bolivarian Republic of Venezuela and its idiosyncratic, coffee-swilling leader. It has been awhile since we last checked in but let me tell you, it never gets quiet down there.
For instance, just yesterday El Presidente had the national assembly allow a referendum that, if passed, would let him stand for unlimited terms as president. To put it in other terms, he's basically a more rotund and more friendly with Iran version of Michael Bloomberg. But really, can you fault a guy for trying? Who knows how many terms FDR would have served if he wouldn't have croaked in office.
There is also some other sad news out of Caracas. The Cleveland Indians' Venezuelan scouting supervisor died in a car crash Sunday night while on his way to a baseball showcase. Now, I have no love for the Indians and I have to admit that my first thought upon reading this was that it was a great opportunity for the Tigers to make their move.
However, I've said it before and I truly believe that baseball is one area that the US has not exploited enough in its diplomatic efforts. Although not as popular as soccer, it is a uniquely American sport that has come to be enjoyed and even dominated by southern neighbors we haven't always treated so well. Is there a better way to illustrate the American Dream in Latin America than by sending previously indigent kids out as ambassadors to show how they have succeeded in the United States?
So, even as the Bolivarian Revolution seeks to institutionalize itself and continues to demonize the US, it's nice to know that guys like Henri Centeno are out there bringing the American Dream to life for a few kids and proving that maybe we aren't so bad after all.

Okay – stop the presses – I'm going to agree with you Allen (It is your birthday after all!) – but I think you are right about using baseball to help the United States with diplomacy. You would have thought that the soon-to-be ex President – with his love of baseball – would have thought of that.
Who knows how different history would be if Castro had stayed a pitcher and the game of baseball transcended politics too? That's life.
Good point about Castro, Tom. We could have had diplomatic relations with Cuba over the art of throwing a slider, if nothing else. Great idea, Allen, about sending out special ambassadors. Peace through baseball!
The "World Baseball Classic" is kind of doing this job although it needs to be much more at the heart of the season than at the beginning.

Open House
After leaving high school, many students look for jobs to enter the workforce and start making money. Others spend the summer getting ready to leave the nest and go to school away from home. On the other hand, there's the local community college path. Another alternative is attending a technical, or "career" school to gain practical training, become qualified for a new career, and gain greater opportunities in a specific profession.
At Orleans Technical Institute, operated by JEVS Human Services, students spend time learning the "real-world" skills needed to begin a career in the building trades industry. Graduating seniors who want to continue their education this fall are invited to Orleans Technical Institute's open house. Visitors can learn about hands-on career training programs in air conditioning, heating, carpentry, electrical, plumbing or building maintenance. Students in these programs gain the technical skills that employers are looking for in as little as six months. Upon graduation, Orleans' employment specialists work with each student to connect them with employers throughout the area who are currently looking to fill open positions with skilled tradespeople.
Orleans Tech's open house visitors will have the opportunity to tour the school, get financial aid details and step-by-step admissions information, meet industry-experienced instructors, and learn about job search assistance. To register for the open house, go to www.orleanstech.edu/register or call 215-728-4700.

Subject: Report Card Message from the State Superintendent
Good afternoon,
This is to update you on activities related to the Report
Cards. We have been working closely with Deloitte Consulting
to deliver the data to schools and districts this week.
If you read the weekly message you know that this is the
first year the process is completely electronic. It is also
one of the major components of our data warehouse initiative
that includes the e-Grant Management System and Student Identifiers.
The process this year is being managed by Deloitte which is
building the format and plugging in the data.
Staff in Data Assessment have been working late hours and
over the weekend to ensure accuracy of this years report.
I deeply appreciate the hard work put in by everyone, in particular,
Andy Metcalf, Richard Yong, Connie Wise, Shuwan Chiu, Warren
Summers, Lynne Curry and Clay Slagle who came in over the
weekend to keep the verification process going.
At this point, the State Report card reflecting statewide
results, is close to completion and is expected to be available
to us this afternoon and may be released to media as early
as tomorrow (Tuesday). The District and School Report Cards
still have some verifications that need to be addressed and
are expected to be accessible online to districts as early
as Wednesday.
Please join me in thanking Data Assessment for their diligence.

They say the neon lights are bright—in Forestburgh?
May 19, 2011 —
FORESTBURGH, NY — This June, when asked for directions from Monticello to the Forestburgh Playhouse (FBP), I'll be more specific than usual: "Take Route 42 South to the blinker, make a hard right, then a quick left. Next stop: 'Idaho!'"
Yes, "Idaho!," the "homage to the golden age of classic musicals" will make its pre-Broadway debut in Forestburgh to work out some of the inevitable last-minute changes that always take place when mounting a new production heading for the Great White Way.
For 65 years, the Forestburgh Playhouse (FBP) has been delighting audiences with a wide array of shows. Although there have been some straight plays, a few serious pieces, and some world-famous blockbusters, what the playhouse is possibly best known for is it's presentations of popular musicals. And for the past 20 years, managing director Norman Duttweiler has been bringing Broadway to the Catskills, so it seems fitting that he is now instrumental in bringing the Catskills to Broadway. I sat down with Duttweiler last week to discuss this impending venture and his enthusiasm was infectious. "I'm so excited to see the Forestburgh Theatre Arts Center [FBTAC] taking off in a whole new direction" he told me. "To kick off my 20th year at the FBP with an original musical is thrilling."
The road trip from "Idaho!" to New York has been a long one. No new musical simply lands in Times Square. Often, there are years of writing, scoring, casting and sometimes, starting all over again. (Can you say "Spiderman?") I took a peek at the website created just for this show (www.idahomusical.com) and scanned the authors' notes. Composer and co-lyricist Buddy Sheffield's musings on how the show came into being were moving. "I think my love of theatre, especially musicals, is what really shines through in 'Idaho!' he writes. "It's really a love letter to the great classics of the Broadway stage."
That road began in 2008, when the newly written show got its start with its first full-blown production at the New York Musical Theatre Festival ( www.nymf.org ), an organization with a mission: "To provide a launching pad for the next generation of musicals (and their creators) to ensure the continued vitality of America's greatest art form… we discover, nurture and promote promising musical theatre artists and producers at all stages of development, in order to inspire a diverse audience through vibrant, accessible new work."

Community garden planned for Hawley
March 21, 2012 —
Kyle Hannel would like to build a community garden in Riverside Park. And to move forward with his intention, Hannel, a student at Lackawanna College Lake Region Center, approached the Hawley Borough Council on March 14. He said he is working on the project with his friend, Sean Brown, also of Hawley.
Laying out the plan and the garden, Hannel said the garden would contain 15 plots that would be 75 by 75 feet. He suggested that interested gardeners would pay a $25 fee to rent the plot and pay a $25 refundable deposit when the plot is cleaned up at the end of the season. He said a community garden would be useful because many residents have small lawns with no room for a garden.
Planning to give back to the community, Hannel said proceeds will be donated to Hawley.
The plan would need approval from the Pennsylvania Department of Environmental Protection (DEP), since the area is a protected flood plain. If approved, Hannel would like to see senior citizens involved. He said businesses could be encouraged to participate by sponsoring planters that would show the name of their business.
Hannel has discussed the proposition with the Hawley Parks & Recreation Committee, and both that group and the Hawley Borough Council expressed support for the concept.
Hannel, who is pursuing a degree in ecological sustainability, said that eco-friendly materials could be used at the garden so as not to contaminate the nearby water and protect the environment.
Also at the meeting, the board said that Hannel could move forward with another initiative, a clean-up day in Bingham Park to be held on May 19.
Hannel is a lifelong resident of Hawley and lives in Hemlock Farms. He graduated from Wallenpaupack High School in 2010.

Well, i found it at Target! remember? i showed you before we had to leave the book section at Target. It was only the first book. oh and our school librarian has all three books you could check out, i saw them there last year.
Love the book!!
The history is SO awesome. And I love the fact that the story will never be completed. Don't get the wrong idea. If you look at it as a whole, the story started when Eru created the Valar and Melkor. This thing will only come to an end when Melkor comes back from the void and that legendary final battle takes place. Don't exactly remember it's name.

The befores
-Sand lightly using your 220 sandpaper (just to make it smooth).
oh wow! Super cool it looks great! I have a question though! does it have a sticky feel to it? like tacky?
Love the afters!! look so much better!
I just wanted to let you know I left you an award on my blog! =)
Looks Great!
What kind of clear lacquer did you use?
Thanks, Lauren
Great job! I love your furniture now. It looks so clean and stylish! God's blessings, Sarah :D
So you sanded after primer but before painting? Hmmm, maybe that's what I should have done with mine. It didn't turn out as good as yours. Also, did you use spray paint for the black or did you use a brush or roller? I have discovered I'm not that good with spray paint :). Was the clear lacquer spray paint as well?
Ahh that might fix some of my problems then! =)
The Lacquer helps with the sticky feeling. I used Bulls eye shellac. I bought it at Lowes and it is in spray paint form. The black paint was in a can and I just used a regular paintbrush. (bristle kind worked better then the foam.)
That looks great! I'm impressed you did all that with spray paint.
You did a fantastic job! Thanks for all of the tips! It's a beautiful transformation!
I'm so glad you added your project to the Show & Tell too! :)
I've wondered how particle board furniture would look "redone" and it looks...amazing. Great job!
Looks really good! For a temporary hardware fix, you could try threading ribbon into the drill holes and knotting on the inside of the drawer to create a handle. I've seen this idea in a magazine. or two.
I can't believe that you sanded that all by hand! My desk nearly killed me and I used a sander.
Great rescue:)
They look so great!! Love that you went with black... can't go wrong with black paint! ;)
Love this! It looks like a new bedroom set! Thanks for sharing those tips. I wish I had found this a few months ago when I was making over a particle board entertainment center. It would have been a lot easier!
Holy nelly they don't even look like the same furniture. Amazing. I love black it makes everything look so classy. Thanks for linking up.
It looks great!
Wow what a makeover! Looks way better now! Thanks for sharing!
Fantastic job!
You are inspiring me Crystal!
They look so good! Thanks for all the great tips. I never would have thought to putty the dings and scratches! Our living room furniture is all banged up from my boys and I would love to paint it. Do you think spray paint would work for the color too?!?
wonderful!! doesn't even look like the same piece!!
You did a great job!
You know I have been looking at this, and haven't clicked it till now, don't know why, this is awesome. Your furniture turned out so flippin cute. I can't believe it, how long has it been since you did this? Is it still looking great??? Thanks for the wonderful tutorial, I love it.
Bella :)

Nice job!! Just a suggestion for anyone else atttempting this... Oil based paint is prolly the best to use here. Not spray paint or latex. It turns out soooooo much better!!
Hello, im abt to attempt this and was wondering what kind of putty to use? Is it wood putty?
Thank you for sharing, it was very helpful.
