Best lenses for your Canon EOS 100D: Wide Angles, Standards and TelephotosBy Kevin Carter - Thursday June 20 2013 Lens Recommendations
With its compact and lightweight body, the Canon EOS 100D / Rebel SL1 / Kiss X7 is the smallest DSLR in the firm's line-up. While it adopts a similar performing sensor to the EOS 700D, the body is around 25% of the size of that model by volume and presents its own set of challenges when selecting lenses for it. In this review, we've taken a look at the optical quality of 130 different lenses fitted to the camera but this time we're also making some limited recommendations about the handling and video capabilities.

Chemo brain is a common term used by cancer survivors to describe thinking and memory problems that can occur after cancer treatment. Chemo brain can also be called chemo fog, chemotherapy-related cognitive impairment or cognitive dysfunction.
Though chemo brain is a widely used term, it's misleading. It's unlikely that chemotherapy is the sole cause of concentration and memory problems in cancer survivors.
Despite the many questions, it's clear that the memory problems commonly called chemo brain can be a frustrating and debilitating side effect of cancer and its treatment. More study is needed to understand this condition.
Signs and symptoms of chemo brain may include:
If you experience troubling memory or thinking problems, make an appointment with your doctor. Keep a journal of your signs and symptoms so that your doctor can better understand how your memory problems are affecting your everyday life.
If you're currently undergoing cancer treatment, talk to your oncologist about your signs and symptoms. If you've completed treatment, you might start by making an appointment with your family doctor or a general practitioner. In some cases, you may be referred to a professional who specializes in helping people cope with memory difficulties (neuropsychologist).
Because appointments can be brief, and because there's often a lot of ground to cover, it's a good idea to be well prepared. Here's some information to help you get ready and what to expect from your doctor.
Your time with your doctor is limited, so preparing a list of questions can help you make the most of your visit. List your questions from most important to least important in case time runs out. For chemo brain, some basic questions to ask your doctor include:
In addition to the questions that you've prepared to ask your doctor, don't hesitate to ask any other questions that occur to you.
Your doctor is likely to ask you a number of questions. Being ready to answer them may allow more time later to cover points you want to address. Your doctor may ask:
Track your symptoms in a journal. Note the time of day and the situations when memory problems occur. Patterns in your symptoms may help your doctor better understand what could be causing your symptoms and the best way to help you cope.
There's no clear definition of chemo brain, so no tests exist to diagnose this condition. Cancer survivors who experience these symptoms often score in normal ranges on memory tests.
Your doctor may recommend blood tests, brain scans or other tests to rule out other causes of memory problems. But if no apparent cause can be found for your symptoms, your doctor may refer you to a specialist who can help you cope with memory changes.
It's not clear what causes chemo brain, and no cure has been identified. In most cases, cancer-related memory problems are temporary, so treatment focuses on coping with symptoms.
No standard treatment has been developed for cancer-related memory problems. Because symptoms and severity differ from person to person, your doctor can work with you to develop an individualized approach to coping.
Cancer and cancer treatment can lead to other conditions, such as anemia, depression, sleep problems and early menopause, which can contribute to memory problems. Controlling these other factors may make it easier to cope with these symptoms.
A neuropsychologist, who specializes in diagnosing and treating conditions that affect memory and thinking, can create a plan to help you cope with chemo brain symptoms. Doctors sometimes refer to this as cognitive rehabilitation or cognitive remediation.
Learning to adapt and cope with memory changes may involve:
No medications have been approved to treat chemo brain. But medications approved for other conditions may be considered if you and your doctor agree they may offer some benefit.
Medications that are sometimes used in people with these symptoms include:
More study is needed to understand how or if these drugs may be helpful for people with these types of memory problems.
You can take steps to ease chemo brain symptoms on your own. For instance, try to:
No alternative treatments have been found to cure chemo brain. If you're interested in trying alternative treatments for your symptoms, discuss the risks and benefits with your doctor. Alternative treatments for other types of memory problems are also touted as helpful for chemo brain, such as:
Chemo brain symptoms can be frustrating and debilitating. With time, you'll find ways to adapt so that concentration will become easier and memory problems may fade. Until then, there are ways to cope. Try to:

Passed CEH with 94%!
It's difficult trying to get certified, but just to share my story how I did it. I attended the CEH v5 back in March 2007 and been procrastinating until only trying out the exam in March 2009 since it's going to be retired in June 2009, since I got the free voucher, why not go for it? I only prepare for the exam in Jan 2009.
so I have the offical courseware v5 which is totally heavy (it's all information and their photos or print-screen is not really that good!). so I ignored the official courseware books.
I brought the following:
1) CEH Official Certified Ethical Hacker Review Guide - Kimberly Graves
2) Exam Prep : Certified Ethical Hacker - Michael Gregg
3) The CEH Prep Guide: The Comprehensive Guide to Certified Ethical Hacking by Ronald L. Krutz and Russell Dean Vines
Of all the books,
1) is very summarized, but it's good to have it.
2) is very detailed and hands on.
3) is very detailed and theory based.
In addition, you need to do a lot of the sample questions from all 3 of the books that comes with their own cd-roms.
The only one that comes closed to the exam is Pass4sure exam. Do this over and over, you'll get thru. In fact, my first attempt in the exam was 69%. I retook the exam after 2 weeks, and scored 94%.
I'm now looking for ECSA/LPT. and currently working on my CISSP (again).
Good luck!

A man accused of racking up $3 million of fraud offences has claimed in court that Maori Party co-leader Pita Sharples and former Cabinet minister John Tamihere took payments from a casino outfit.
Loizos Michaels made the allegation under cross-examination at the Auckland District Court where he has denied 31 deception charges brought by the Serious Fraud Office.
He told the court that former Christchurch Casino chief executive Stephen Lyttelton was planning to take over Sky City with his friend, National Party president Peter Goodfellow.
Part of the plan was to bring people on board to stir up a negative media campaign about Sky City and bring the share price down.
Michaels told Crown prosecutor Christine Gordon SC that Dr Sharples and former Labour MP Mr Tamihere received money from Mr Lyttelton.
"Mr Sharples is a big gambler and I think [Mr Lyttelton] paid him about $100,000 to $120,000."
Asked when the alleged meetings took place, Michaels said he could not be sure because he had been in jail for two years.
Michaels said Mr Lyttelton met Dr Sharples several times and money was handed over at a marae in the West Auckland suburb of Kelston.
Ms Gordon cut in: "You're just making this up as you go along, aren't you Mr Michaels?"
Michaels said: "Not at all."
He said the two politicians were brought in to help stir up controversy and damage the Sky City share price.
"I have to defend myself eventually, yes, that's exactly what happened ..."
Ms Gordon asked Michaels how he believed Mr Tamihere was involved with Mr Lyttelton. Michaels did not answer the question.
Dr Sharples and Mr Tamihere have not been called as witnesses.
In a statement to APNZ, Dr Sharples said: "There is no truth to the allegation. I have absolutely no idea what he is talking about."
Mr Tamihere also rejected the claim that he received payments.
"If I did, it would be fairly easily traceable, there would be evidence of it and there's not."
Mr Tamihere said he met Michaels after being introduced to him at a bar on Ponsonby Rd. He said a group of people were sitting around and talking about a casino takeover.

That woman is just beauitful, I mean mostly all seems to think she is a fool but that's just an act, it does require some skills to become one of the most famous people in the world.
I am looking forward to seeing the Valentine's Day.I think it's really cool!
I would like to see Sir Paul McCartney as Simon's replacement.I just feel that the British influence still needs to be present and who better personifies music than Paul.
Howard Stern, are you kidding. What musical background does he have? He makes me uncomfortable when I have listened to him, can't imagine it. I would love to see Elton John or Jamie Fox, but I, also, think Gene Simmons would be good, too.

Oh, the sheer pleasures of putting in a hand-crafted letter into the envelope, affixing a stamp on it and dropping it yourself into a postbox! With the letter-writing activity almost gone out of our lives, this previously used to contribute in many ways to a child's nurturing the fine art of writing. In today's age, what with the texting and email mania, writing with hand has almost gone out of vogue!

Mariachi El Bronx
"Going acoustic and dressing in black charro outfits is probably the punkest move they could have taken; El Bronx negotiate in exactly the same way as The Bronx – they don't. They fear nothing, explore everything and create from the rawest of emotion, making imperfections the very best bits."—NME
Punk rock. Mariachi. Two great tastes that go great together – er, right? Well, anyway, the two joined regardless one fateful August day in 2006, when The Bronx showed up to play on a television show. At the time, the Los Angeles-based punks were infamous for scabrous rifferama that suggested a return to L.A.'s golden age of hardcore (it's not coincidence that the band portrayed Black Flag in the Darby Crash biopic What We Do Is Secret, or went on their first tour with the Circle Jerks). The show requested the band play an acoustic version of "Dirty Leaves" from the band's second, self-titled album – a request that didn't sit well. "Going 'unplugged' was a '90s fad that I had a knee-jerk reaction to dislike," notes guitarist Joby J. Ford. "We wanted to do something a little bit different." Indeed, The Bronx took it one irreverent step further, donning uncharacteristic sombreros and arranging the song as a mariachi lament. "We never wanted The Bronx to be a soft, quiet band," says frontman Matt Caughthran, "but this freed up a whole new realm. Sometimes you don't realize the barriers around yourself until you step outside them. It was a big moment in our career, breathing new life into the band."
And thus Mariachi El Bronx was born. Between tour stops, Caughthran, Ford and their bandmates – Jorma Vik (drums) Brad Magers (trumpet), Ken Horne (jarana/guitar), and Vincent Hidalgo (guitarrón) – relentlessly studied instructional videos on YouTube to master the various mariachi styles: norteno, jorocho, juasteka, bolero, and corridos. "Mariachi has rules," Caughthran explains. "We learned everything we could out of respect, especially as we're a bunch of white guys – well, except for Ken, who's Japanese." (Mariachi El Bronx would eventually come to include Ray Suen on violin, as well as satellite members Alfredo Ortiz – known for his percussion styles with the likes of Beastie Boys and Money Mark – and acclaimed guitarrón player Karla Tovar.) The sonic merger of the two cultures wasn't so surprising considering the band's evolution out of California's ethnic melting pot. Caughthran grew up in Pico Riviera, on the outskirts of East L.A., where he was definitely in the gringo minority. "I know people are like, 'Where the fuck does this come from?', but growing up in Mexican neighborhoods, it feels automatic," says Caughthran. "My two favorite bands were always Black Flag and Los Lobos, so it all makes sense. Black Flag was all about aggression, no rules, no dress code, while Los Lobos opened me up to Neil Young, the Carpenters, Dinosaur Jr., Sonic Youth. Through them, I discovered a rebellious spirit in many genres." Caughthran was actually junior high schoolmates with Vincent Hidalgo, whose father David is a key member of both Los Lobos and the Latin Playboys. Vincent would eventually join Mariachi El Bronx in 2007, while el padre Hidalgo played accordion on "My Love" from Mariachi El Bronx's eponymous 2009 debut album. "For David to like something we did musically – it was our vindication," Caughthran says.
Los Lobos' nonconformist streak also proved inspiring. "We've definitely got our share of flack, but punk to me was not about playing fast and having a chain wallet," Ford says. "It's a way of life, not a sound." As such, while Mariachi El Bronx's culture clash initially seems exotic, in fact it follows in a grand punk tradition: The Pogues, for example, merged the traditional music of their Irish backgrounds with punk abandon, The Clash famously mixed raw garage guitars with Brixton reggae riddims, and Manu Chao continues to blend raw street anthems with Latin, folk, and African grooves. More currently, Mariachi El Bronx found kinship with the Gypsy punk of Gogol Bordello, with whom they toured Europe in 2010. "I would never have known there was a 'world music' category," Caughthran claims. "I wasn't thinking that big!" Hugeness ensued anyway: soon after the acclaimed release of the first Mariachi El Bronx album in 2009 – highlighted by the first single, "Cell Mates" – the band found itself moving from sweaty punk dives to playing Coachella and Glastonbury, and booking dates with the likes of The Flaming Lips, Foo Fighters (with whom MEB tours this fall) and The Killers (with whom they collaborated on a charity Christmas single, "Happy Birthday Guadalupe"). "We're doing some weird-ass shows," Caughthran laughs. "The experiment of El Bronx was a disguise to get us into parties where we didn't belong, places we didn't expect to go – and it worked!"
Mariachi El Bronx has always defied expectations: they were first revealed to the public via an unexpectedly stirring cover of Prince's "I Would Die 4 U," recorded for a SPIN tribute 25th anniversary of Purple Rain (find it on YouTube; it's awesome, trust.). Likewise, the band's latest album, Mariachi El Bronx (II), finds them exploring new ground – from collaborating with Grammy-nominated Mariachi Reyna de Los Angeles (the first all-female mariachi group in the U.S.) to an even greater emphasis on storytelling craft and emotion in the lyrics. "It still has the naïveté and blind excitement of the first record, but it's more vulnerable," Caughthran says. As such, songs like "48 Roses" paint picaresque portraits of men doomed with an insatiable appetite for love, while "Revolution Girls" details a border romance gone awkwardly astray. "A lot of people have gone down to Tijuana, fucked up and done something stupid – I certainly have," Caughthran admits. "There's a lot of regret and loneliness here. A lot of The Bronx stuff is in code, but in the tradition of the mariachi, El Bronx has become an outlet for songs about love, heartbreak, growing up and being a man."
"People were surprised that our embrace of mariachi wasn't a joke," Ford says. "Instead, being able to bounce back and forth between two musical styles we love and respect has proven the key to our longevity." In fact, Mariachi El Bronx (II) finds The Bronx on the verge of celebrating their tenth anniversary – a landmark that most likely will lead to some unexpected path yet again. "If you had told me when we started this that I'd find be playing mariachi ten years later, I'd tell you to go fuck yourself," says Caughthran. "The greatest thing about our band, and the most torturous, is that it's unpredictable for us too! We don't know where the chaos will take us, but that's a good thing – it's always exciting. Honesty, heart and the will to do things no one else is doing remain the driving force: I'm not saying we're the best band on the planet, but we're pretty fuckin' good. When we put the charro suits on, we feel invincible."

Discussion in 'HOW TO' started by kngtmat, May 9, 2012.
For all kinds of forks.
What are the ways to get old bicycle forks to except the newer bigger axles?
I file the forks a little on both sides.
Some form of filing or grinding to widen the slot. Do it carefully and evenly to make sure that the axle alignment is retained.
Or file the axle but i prefer filing the forks instead.
Axels are easier to replace if something happens.
Filing the axle creates a stress riser that could lead to a failure. Opening the fork up, not so much. Granted, it will probably not likely be an issue, but I wouldn't do it just on principle. There probably is a reason that the industry moved to a larger standard size. That, and I'd imagine a front axle failure could be, um, eventful...
Not sure at all, but, Ive worked with a lot of different kinds of steel through the years and the new, bigger dia. axles dont seen to be as good a steel as the old ones. My guess (and guess it is) is that the lower quality, but bigger dia. probably about equals the older, small dia. 'better' steel. Im inclined to open up the dropouts if needed.
Ok because part of the reason I wanted to know is that Spaceliner Klunker I have, whoever owned the bike did it when he turned it into a Klunker.

I'm overwintering a single 10-frame deep box inside the basement. (it was a weak hive, but seemed free of any noticeable pests before I brought inside). It has a clear entrance tube to the outdoors which I monitor every day. I've observed the workers dragging dead bees out from the hive and then leaving them in the tube. I find 5-10 newly dead bees in the tube every day. (I empty it every day). The actual rate be several higher/day - as some may be pushed to the outdoors.
Does anyone have any idea if this should be a concern? Or perhaps this is a natural mortality rate during winter.

The search for the next chancellor begins
UM system leaders say they don't have many details about what they're looking for.
COLUMBIA, Mo. - University of Missouri system leaders released new details about the search for the next person to replace Brady Deaton as chancellor. The UM Board of Curators wrapped up its annual meetings today on the University of Missouri campus. System leaders dedicated time to talk about the search process for the next chancellor. Deaton announced he's retiring after 24 years with the university on Wednesday.
System president Tim Wolfe says his ultimate goal is to have someone hired by November 15th, the day Deaton officially steps down. He says the search process has already started, but they don't have many details of what they're looking for.
Right now a lot of the details are still in limbo to see who replaces Chancellor Brady Deaton. Tim Wolfe says university leaders are trying to figure out who needs to be on the search committee. He tells ABC 17 News they want to make sure they get input of positions like faculty and administrative members.
"Going out to the constituency groups, asking for their opinions in terms of characteristics, skills, competency that they are looking for suggesting in the next chancellor," Wolfe says.
Wolfe agrees having someone hired in five months is a tight turn. In past large searches for positions like system president, the search lasted much longer than that. It took system leaders about a year to find and hire Wolfe. But he says what's on their side is they have previous experience with searches to this extent. The choice will have to get the okay from Wolfe.
"This is a choice the board will ultimately have to make because of the amount of funding, but it's the president's choice and it will be run under the structure he puts together," UM Board of Curators chair Wayne Goode explains.
Wolfe says the next person needs to have similar academic and leadership qualifications to what Deaton did. But they're not going to rush the process either.
"We will not sacrifice quality for time, so if in fact we can't come up with the right candidate pool or the right people to look at, we will not sacrifice for a lesser candidate," Wolfe explains.
The other aspect to this hire deals with money. According to university leaders, last year Deaton made a base salary of $333,076. When we asked Wolfe about how much the system is willing to pay, he wouldn't go into any details.

So for example, there are certain rinks in the NJ/CT area he uses again and again. He also knows a lot of people -former students, other coaches - that he can use to help him find a local rink if, for some reason, the rink he normally uses isn't available. But yes, this does sound like a lot of work, doesn't it?

Three full-time Pulaski Technical College staff members have received scholarships through the Pulaski Technical College Staff Senate for fall 2008. The scholarships, each in the amount of $50, were presented to recipients on July 24 by Jerald Robinson, PTC Bookstore manager, and Lennon Parker, PTC Staff Senate president. Recipients can use the funds to purchase books and supplies in the college bookstore. Recipients include Ivon Granaldi, data analyst/assistant; Lisa Barringer, mail officer; and Chrystal Paul, payroll officer. "Staff members often take classes to better themselves and to learn new skills to perform their jobs on campus," Parker said. "Books and supplies can be expensive so providing staff members with this scholarship will help defray their costs and will show them how much they are appreciated." Pulaski Tech's Staff Senate meets monthly. Its primary function is to represent college staff, consider ways to improve employment conditions, to act in an advisory capacity to the college president, and to foster a spirit of unity and cooperation among all college employees. The goal of the Staff Senate is to better serve students by facilitating and maintaining effective communication among college departments, administration and faculty.

Film & Presentation: World Peace is a Local Issue
OSCAR-nominated, EMMY-winning local filmmaker
Dorothy Fadiman
PREMIERES a NEW FILM
WORLD PEACE is a Local Issue
A digitally remastered, re-edited production
Award-winning filmmaker Dorothy Fadiman will premiere World Peace is a Local Issue, at a celebration of local, community-based projects. Activists from East Palo Alto, Mountain View, Palo Alto and Redwood City will participate by presenting currently important local issues. The evening will include a Memorial Tribute in which former Palo Alto Mayor Peter Drekmeier will honor two former Palo Alto Council Members, Gary Fazzino and Ellen Fletcher who are featured in the film.
Fadiman's film documents a memorable event in mid-Peninsula history: the efforts of Palo Alto residents (in 1983) to convince their City Council to adopt a resolution endorsing a Nuclear Weapons Freeze. This drama takes place against a backdrop of worldwide grassroots efforts to rein in the alarming nuclear arms race during the Cold War era. The film focuses on the tension of the council meeting where impassioned pleas of residents result in two council members changing their positions, ensuring passage of the controversial Resolution.
The evening's program will also feature presentations by activists from East Palo Alto, Mountain View, Redwood City and Palo Alto, who are hard at work on local issues and who've been involved in past successful efforts. Guests will be welcomed by a local jazz trio.
HOST: Paul George - Director of Peninsula Peace and Justice Center
Isaiah Phillips: a young East Palo Alto activist (In The Name of Art), who will present three short video clips detailing a variety of citizen-based efforts in his town. The videos are YUCA vs Romic, The Weeks Neighborhood Plan, and Cultivating the Vision.
John Rinaldi: a Mountain View activist for the Day Worker Center. Mr. Rinaldi will recall the history of the arduous, eventually successful struggle to establish the Day Worker Center.
Erika Escalante: a Palo Alto activist who is President of the Buena Vista Home Owners Association. She is also President of the newly formed Save Buena Vista organizing committee. Ms. Escalante will discuss the effort to save nearly 200 low income residents from losing their mobile homes.
James Lee: a Redwood City Organizer and Secretary of Save Pete's Harbor, active in current efforts to save the Bay shoreline from commercial development, while fending off the displacement of dozens of low income residents.
MEMORIAL DEDICATION: During the program, Peter Drekmeier will honor the memories of Gary Fazzino and Ellen Fletcher. Fletcher introduced the Nuclear Freeze Resolution; Fazzino was one of the Council members after hearing from local residents, switched his vote to support the Freeze Resolution
RECEPTION: Following the formal program, presenters and attendees from local communities are invited to meet, share ideas and get to know each other.
CONTACT: Dorothy Fadiman, Paul George and all of the presenters are available for interviews.

Believe it or not, I've also heard of dissolving denture tablets in water and soaking in THAT.
Welcome to the Quilting Board!
Believe it or not, I've also heard of dissolving denture tablets in water and soaking in THAT.
I swagged an old lace tablecloth over a rod above my bedroom window. If the stains on yours are not too large, this might be a good use for a while.
There is a product called Retro Clean too that might help the stains. It's on sale at Fabric Depot right now. http://www.fabricdepot.com/index.php...&pageid=186716

Living in the foothills
peacefully colors my world.
I bought a crocheted tablecloth at a yard sale, that had a large stain, for $5. After a soak in Oxyclean, it is now spotless. :-)
Lucky you! Keep them - they are heirlooms.
Be very careful if you decide to cut the tablecloth into smaller pieces. I am thinking that if it was crocheted (Is that a word?), it will unravel if cut. Many tablecloths of that era were crochet. I would try getting the stains out. "Grandma's Stain Remover" works great. I got my bottle at my favorite LQS.
I love thread crochet items. Mostly because I know the amount of time it takes to make one. A hand crocheted tablecloth or table topper (doiley) is becoming a rare item to find.
Got fabric?
First try a long soak (2-3 days) in all fabric (non-chlorine) bleach. Gets out a lot of the age-type stains. I use it a lot on antique quilts.
Thanks to all you ladies! I will try to salvage them!
just a few thoughts on the "old" lace tablecloths...........I have a stash of them, along with hand embroidered tablecloths made for me by an dear now departed aunt, doilies crocheted by my mom, hand embroidered dresser scarves from antique stores, along with pillow cases....not to mention my "silverware" and "good china and crystal".....and as I grow older I am beginning to realize
these "things" will not be treasured by those who have to go thru my stuff......what to do............I still use these things at family gatherings, but will all this be given to "Goodwill", probably so.
Oh, please find a way to clean them. I did see a link in later messages. Then use the clothes for special or even not so special occasions. Much like our quilts, table linens were made to be used. Gentle, loving use will honor the maker and the intent of the makers. What a gift that you have. Heritage is our special connection to our past.

City says Incline hikers hike at their own risk
COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo. - A popular hiking trail officially opened up to the public on Friday. The Manitou Incline was legally opened at dawn to hikers, though crowds of people disregarded the "No Trespassing" signs for years.
Early morning hikers said they showed up early to beat crowds; they came out for a celebratory hike. A crowd gathered to watch Colorado Springs City Council President Scott Hente break a bottle of sparkling cider over a "No Trespassing" sign at 7 a.m. to signify its official opening.
The city of Colorado Springs now operates the trail. The trail is owned by Pikes Peak Cog Railway, Colorado Springs Utilities and the U.S. Forest Service.
Avid Incliner hiker Bryan Willis switched out his typical exercise gear for a cape, a beaded sash and a swimsuit top to commemorate the day. He has made the trip to the top more than 40 times since Jan. 1. He said he has never been injured during his hundreds of trips to the summit.
But Floyd O'Neil, an EMT and firefighter for Chrystal Park Fire Department, said Willis is one of the lucky ones. He said he's hiked the trail recreationally, but hiked it professionally "more than he would like to admit."
He said there have been days where a rescue crew has made three trips up the incline to rescue injured hikers.
"There are hazards up there, there are gaping pipes where, if you take a fall on that, you can do a good dash on yourself," said O'Neil.
Hente said when it comes to the party liable for hiker injuries, it will follow the same precedent as other city parks. He explained the idea of government immunity.
"You can go hiking in Garden of the Gods today and trip and fall and break your leg. When you have a lot of recreational activities in the city you have that. Now, what government immunity is, is it's basically hike at your own risk," said Hente.
There is still the possibility of a hiker suing if negligence comes into play. Sandi Yukman, vice president of Incline Friends, explained the idea. She said, for example, if the Incline isn't well-maintained and someone is injured in light of that, there is the possibility of suing for negligence.
Hente acknowledged problem areas on the trail but said the city is working toward improving those.
Yukman said the next step her group is taking for the Incline is to raise money for a $1 million project to tackle trail problems. She said parts of the trail are deteriorating and the goal is to give certain spots some "tender loving care" to ensure its longevity into the future.
Hiker David Prescott said he hopes this comes to fruition. He said he's like to see the city follow through with improvement projects for the trail.
Willis said the thing he is most excited about for the newly legal trail is the new people it will attract.
O'Neil said while he's also excited for the trail to open, he said he hopes it doesn't mean more rescue trips for his crew because of increased foot traffic.
He stressed the importance of making sure you're in proper physical shape before tackling the trail. He said people let their "egos get the best of them" and attempt the trail. He said people go into cardiac arrest because of their ill decisions. It takes O'Neil's team an hour to reach injured hikers and when a victim suffers cardiac arrest, the possibility of survival is very low.

Tibetan / Vajrayana
Vajrayana Buddhism is most closely associated with Tibet and can be characterized by the figure of the siddha, the master whose spiritual realization is so profound that he or she has power over the phenomenal world, and in whom the profundity and vastness of absolute truth is fully and completely manifested. Many of our most well-known authors come from this tradition of Tibetan Buddhism .
[Note: The tags for the various schools are not definitive as many books span multiple traditions, etc. They are meant to use as a starting point for exploring this collection.]
Buddhism through American Women's EyesThe Buddha's path to human transformation declares women and men equally capable of spiritual realization, yet throughout history most exemplars of this tradition have been men. Now, as Buddhism is transmitted to the West, women are playing a major role in its adaptation and development. The conversation presented here takes place among experienced practitioners from many Buddhist traditions who share their thoughts on the Buddhist outlook, its practical application in… Read More

Re: Vegetables and fruits that we have forgotten about....
I am a novice to veggie gardening, but Im interested in veg I cant buy as Im not very happy with the range I can get.
We only have major supermarkets to buy from & live in a country area that is not very multicultural. I find it very hard to get decent asian veg & when I can get it, its really expensive.
Last week I saw Okra so I grabbed some and the cashier didnt know what it was, same tthing a few monthes ago whren I bought artichokes.
I am also intested in growing old varieties, so Im going to join The Diggers Club.
Just yesterday I saw a seed packet with their logo on it for heirloom variety tomatoes. (Fothergills)
Will put up links as other Aussie forum members might be interested to join as well.

Re: Vegetables and fruits that we have forgotten about....
Hi Jamie
Here in rural Spain, Cardoon's are a local vegetable that is used whenever it is in season.
Our neighbours gave us some, and we have tried to use it the way the locals do - string them, as they are a very fiborous vegetable, they then boil them and place on top of other steamed vegetables and meat, or boil and then cover them in local olive oil (cold pressed olive oil which is wonderful).
Eaten raw is not good.
Have to say, they are tasteless, and probably better covered in a sauce, as least then you have some flavour.

Re: Vegetables and fruits that we have forgotten about....
there's heaps of online seed companies with plenty of great heirloom species , Diggers being only one of them .Have a look at
I've bought seed from all of them and the variety is amazing ! And you'll help food diversity and save a species maybe .Save the seeds too and pass them on

Re: Vegetables and fruits that we have forgotten about....
Hi Jaime,
I know its a bit late but my dad used to grow cardoons and my mum used to steam it and then fry it off in a little butter and garlic, or make a cheese sauce and make it into a gratin. Though she just called that cheesey thistles.

Re: Vegetables and fruits that we have forgotten about....
I believe they used to lightly boil the stalks of the cardoon - it's supposed to be quite bland... but I've never tried it... Meddlers used to be used in jelly (weird little fruits that look like a cat's bottom) The fruit of the Crateagus monogyna (hawthorn) can be eaten - that would have been eaten thousands of years ago - the young leaves of our native Hesperis matronalis (sweet rocket) can be eaten in salads - very strong though.... green gages you don't hear of much anymore.... sloes and loganberries.... I can't think of anymore at the mo but there must be loads of stuff that we don't eat anymore that we could... i did eat a conker once... that was surprisingly nice really - not sure if they are edible in large amounts though...

Re: Vegetables and fruits that we have forgotten about....
The choko vine that hangs off the traditional Aussie paling fence is native to Central America, Mexico and the West Indies called chayote. Grows like crazy, very subtle flavour, best eaten when approx. 10cm (4 inches) or the larger ones chopped up added to stewing green apples and/or rhubarb. Absorbs the flavour of the other fruit. They are probably used in bought/pre-fab'd apple pies.
The fruit I want to eat and enjoy more of is the Cape Gooseberry. Fantastic beautiful taste. I can never have enough.

Re: Vegetables and fruits that we have forgotten about....
I was thinking of the choko too phiona!! Last time I bought some home my fiance said "what the f is that!?" I love it boiled, steamed or best of all roasted. It is very plain, but I love it like that. I find it quite refreshing.
I also remember when I was very young we had a huge wild rasberry bush in the front yard. We thought nothing of it back then, but now when I think about it I would love one in our yard now. They were so delicious and sweet. Im sure they are a rarity now with the ever expanding building industry.
Another thing I love is the bush lemon. I dont know anyone that sells them and its a shame as they are just lovely. The 3 trees that were growing at my parents have now died which Im pretty mad about! I think they were just too old, or were lacking in attention. They were planted with the house which is almost 100 years old. We now have to stop on the way to pick them from trees on the side of the road in the neighbouring properties.

Other "forgotten" vegetables that I have tasted are the wild versions of parsley, celery, radish, fennel and that kind of stuff. I have tried a vegetable/herbal pie from my granny with these wild veg and they taste amazing and I could say much better.
But they are wild so I don't no if you can plant and cultivate them. I will ask my granny today and she would surely now some stuff that people don't eat anymore!

Re: Vegetables and fruits that we have forgotten about....
and for the history: The earliest description of the cardoon comes from the fourth century BCE Greek writer Theophrastus. The cardoon was popular in Greek and Roman cuisine. I read it in wikipedia!

Re: Vegetables and fruits that we have forgotten about....
there is an herb which grows inthe fields which tastes of vinegar, and farmers ate it when they were faraway from home harvesting frumento or erba medica in summer, it was an antidoto to thirst, one other vinegar tasting herb grew in the holes of pebbles walls around my nonna's house. We ate that and after chewing we spit it it was our dissetante while playing hide and seek, I still remember the taste. mmmmmmmmmm
Chewing gum wa made with grains of "frumento", we took the spighe, crushed them in the hand and then blew away the ****, the grains chewed after a while became our "gome merecane", we were very proud of our self-sufficiency
it's not medioevo but almost

IOM Trafficking of men Belarus and Ukraine
2010-10-15 10:21:00.0
Download right click "save as"
To date, trafficking in males has been underconsidered in research despite noteworthy signals that it is a violation faced by many males, adult and minors. Often severely exploited male migrants are overlooked as victims of trafficking (VoT). The noteworthy number of men exposed to trafficking necessitates assistance tailored to their specific needs and interests. Tailoring of services is required to the specific profile of male victim, not least according to their trafficking experience, whether they are a minor or adult and the family and social conditions to which they will return. The specific experiences of trafficked males of Belarusian and Ukrainian nationality highlight some general patterns in terms of how trafficking takes place from these countries and, equally, some of the needs and interests of this specific target group. Attention to the gender dimensions of trafficking must be increasingly considered in research and anti-trafficking interventions. More information about human trafficking on the website of IOM.

Thanks again Dan
Thanks again Dan
Beeman, after reading your post #37 could you recommend a yeast. I'm getting ready to buy my equipment for my first batch. I was going with Lalvin D-47, but now I'm looking at Lalvin EC-1118. What would you recommend?
Thanks Steve

No racking right?
4 weeks for yeast to ferment?
Then how long for the mother?
Braggs ACV has a sediment in the bottom, is it yeast?
Then I'd rack it off of the fermenting lees Add the Braggs. You should see a mother beginning to form within 6 weeks. It should remain undisturbed for 10 - 12 months.
The sediment in the bottom of the Braggs is remnants of the mother, I believe.
Good luck.

I squeeze apples and ferment with honey for good drinking. Found a bottle marked '94 crabby. It was in a champaign bottle and bubbled all the way down. Even the wife liked it. I keep my vinegar operation in another location from the mead/beer projects to avoid contamination. One more Q--how can I test for % acid. We pickle lots of veggies from the garden--they're quite good. Local farmer's marketers indicate regulators specify 5%--I don't know why
My mead vinegar so far has stayed the blond color.
Beemandan can you answer this question? I have a mead that I made using 3lbs of honey for a gallon of mead. I did not take a reading of the must, because at the time I didn't know how to use a hydrometer. Anyway I want to make vinegar with this mead and I am afraid that there will still be honey left in it because the yeast I used only goes to about 12 percent. The question is, can I go-ahead and pitch another yeast in there that finish's higher to see if it will use up all the honey, so I end up with a dry mead?
Got the results back from the lab--my vinegar is 3.5 % acid. I plan to sell at local farmers market. May sell pickles too. I have redish colored and very blond. Apples/honey/well water ferment and turn over a year's time. The only difference was the original yeast. Go figure.
Buz I thought it had to be 4% to pickle?
Guess I could add water...........lower score is more acid.
> lower score is more acid
Perhaps you are thinking of pH instead of percentage? With pH, distilled water is a 7, with increasing acidity as the numbers get closer to 1. Numbers higher than 7 are increasingly alkaline.
USDA Zone 7A Elevation 1400 ft
Beemandan - When you do your initial mead fermentation with the Champaign yeast do you add any acid, yeast nutrient, tannins, or use campden tablets in the brewing process? Or is it just the must and yeast? Thank you

Winter Foods for Healthy Skin (Page 8)
7. Soymilk
Soymilk may help to preserve skin-firming collagen because it is rich in isoflavones. In a study published in the Journal of the American College of Nutrition, mice fed isoflavones and exposed to ultraviolet radiation had fewer wrinkles and smoother skin than mice that were exposed to UV light but didn't get isoflavones. The researchers believe that isoflavones help prevent collagen breakdown.
