That is the sound of piece and quiet at my house... Lil one is off to school today.. First Day. Miss you baby Girl, but.......
......and now i'm off to quilt.. :mrgreen:
Mine start next week!!!!
Ours started two weeks ago. . . :-D
Mine goes Monday!
My kids spent the summer in Africa. I haven't seen or held them since June!!! God willing, they'll be back in a week, and start school 9/6. I can't wait to hug the stuffing out of them...
I start back at the end of the month, too. :(
Nice isn't it??! My last two started school last week. My youngest is 13 and the last of 6. I know that empty nest is going to hit me HARD..and while I have a few years left before that happens I am already starting to plan what to do with myself when I won't have to be taxi anymore. I bounce back between being excited and sad...where did all that time go? And who am I really?? Will I freak out when I don't have my full time MoM duties to fall back on anymore? Am I ready for this new phase of life?? Lots to think about....
If only I could find a school for retired husbands. :roll:
ROFLOL, I did! It's called college. He went all last year on VA scholarship at 62 years young, is getting his AS degree in Criminal Justice by way of Governors Award Degree for his life experiences (he's a retired cop). He will then go on to get his Bachelors in spring. Meantime, I have a 'honey-do' list, he bike rides, works for the neighbor when he can cutting wood, drives the VA van for the vet's needing rides to doctor appointments, does maintenance for our church, is Pres. of the mens group at church, and even tho we don't have a pot to pee in, we are happy and content.Quote:

If you live on the Wetcoast, you need these. The BFG is every bit as good as a Michelin AS3, but cheaper. No objectionable road noise either. Sidewall is compliant but not too soft. I would buy them again.

After reading a bunch of the reviews posted here, it's easy to pick out who actually bought the tires for the recommended use and who actually read the specs. First of all, this is a SUMMER tire as it's own title states. This is not an all season or a snow tire. Don't expect it preform like one. Secondly, this tire is one step away from a track tire. Only thing missing is a different compound. The reason why this tire handles so well is because it's stiff and it's an ULTRA HIGH PREFORMANCE TIRE. Just read what the tire is and you'll know what you're getting, not that difficult. If you want something that sticks on launch and in the twisties, I suggest these tires. This is an enthusiasts tire, not a BMW 7 series cruiser tire. If you want something for around town and grocery getting, buy an all season. If you are an "arrive and drive" track day type, this tire has your name on it.

These tires are awesome! Best tires I've ever owned, they aren't noisy at all. They handle amazing and launch extremely well also. I will definitely be buying another set after these wear out. Tredwear so for is really good as well. Wet handling is very good, have not hydroplaned at all.

I bought these tires today and within 20 mins I feel all the bumps just like dunlop sport maxx rt (summer tires). Good grip on the road but very noisy. I thought my Subaru rumble would overpower the road noise but it's louder than my engine and exhaust. Don't know about the snow weather but it's required to give a rating.

Great news: Obama says he's learned that "there's no such thing as shovel-ready projects" for public works
posted at 2:33 pm on October 13, 2010 by Allahpundit
Hey, we all make mistakes. This one just happens to involve hundreds of billions of taxpayer dollars.
While proud of his record, Obama has already begun thinking about what went wrong — and what he needs to do to change course for the next two years. He has spent what one aide called "a lot of time talking about Obama 2.0" with his new interim chief of staff, Pete Rouse, and his deputy chief of staff, Jim Messina. During our hour together, Obama told me he had no regrets about the broad direction of his presidency. But he did identify what he called "tactical lessons." He let himself look too much like "the same old tax-and-spend liberal Democrat." He realized too late that "there's no such thing as shovel-ready projects" when it comes to public works. Perhaps he should not have proposed tax breaks as part of his stimulus and instead "let the Republicans insist on the tax cuts" so it could be seen as a bipartisan compromise.
Most of all, he has learned that, for all his anti-Washington rhetoric, he has to play by Washington rules if he wants to win in Washington. It is not enough to be supremely sure that he is right if no one else agrees with him. "Given how much stuff was coming at us," Obama told me, "we probably spent much more time trying to get the policy right than trying to get the politics right. There is probably a perverse pride in my administration — and I take responsibility for this; this was blowing from the top — that we were going to do the right thing, even if short-term it was unpopular. And I think anybody who's occupied this office has to remember that success is determined by an intersection in policy and politics and that you can't be neglecting of marketing and P.R. and public opinion."
I won't rehash my annoyance at the Democrats' obsession with "branding" and salesmanship as the source of their troubles (suffice it to say, even doctrinaire liberals are starting to tire of it) but savor the irony of The One whining about having allegedly neglected to market his policies thoroughly while admitting that his relentless pre-inauguration marketing of the stimulus for "shovel-ready" projects was wrong, wrong, wrong. Why? Because he forgot to account for the cumbersome regulatory bureaucracy that project managers have to shoulder before those shovels can, in fact, be readied. As lefty Kevin Drum recently put it, "The whole concept of 'shovel ready' really doesn't seem to exist except for projects that are so far advanced they probably have funding already." Oh well.
I wonder when The One will realize there's no such thing as jobs "created or saved" either. Something for the next election cycle maybe, when "Obama 2.0" is in full swing. Can't wait. I'm going to leave you guys with this excerpt from the same Times piece, not because I think it's correct or insightful or even an honest assessment of Team Barry's thinking, but simply because the resulting freakout in the comments should be magnifique. Exit quotation:
Obama's aides say they will most likely set up their re-election campaign around next March, roughly the same as when Bush and Clinton incorporated their incumbent campaign operations. They are more optimistic about 2012 than they are about 2010, believing the Tea Party will re-elect Barack Obama by pulling the Republican nominee to the right. They doubt Sarah Palin will run and figure Mitt Romney cannot get the Republican nomination because he enacted his own health care program in Massachusetts. If they had to guess today, some in the White House say that Obama will find himself running against Mike Huckabee, the former Arkansas governor.

Lana Del Rey, Paradise
Last year was Lana Del Rey's year. So much was said about the former Lizzy Grant - much of it negative. But hey, at least they're talking about you. Born to Die: The Paradise Edition was released late in the year, including the original album and this eight-track extended player.
It's worth it for the opening track Ride alone, from the light intake of breath at the start to the lyrics that paint a picture to match the languid, summer evening, breeze-in-your-hair vibe of the song. Ultimately it's the song that proves Del Rey's image is a key factor in your enjoyment of her music.
Those with sensitive ears will want to miss the otherwise brilliant Cola and its vulgar opening lyrics, and Blue Velvet seems like an obvious choice of cover version.
But there are plenty of strong tracks, including the trippy Gods And Monsters, which more than make up for any shortfalls.

What is echinacea?
Echinacea (say: "eck-in-ay-sha") is an herbal product that may help the body defend itself from the viruses that cause colds, sore throats, and the flu. You can find echinacea products in most drug stores or health food stores.
How should I use echinacea?
Follow the directions on the package label, or talk to your doctor before you buy an herbal product. Don't take echinacea on an empty stomach. Instead, take it with food or a large glass of water. Do not take echinacea for more than 2 weeks without talking to your doctor first.
How do I safely take echinacea?
Read the directions on the supplement label to learn how much to take and how often to take it. If you have any questions about how much to take, call your family doctor or pharmacist.
Follow these tips to make sure you are taking the right amount of echinacea:
- If you are taking a prescription medicine, ask your doctor if it's okay to also take echinacea.
- Take only the amount recommended on the label. Don't assume that more echinacea will work better or quicker. Taking more than the recommended amount can be dangerous.
How can I safely store echinacea?
Store all herbal products up and away, out of reach and sight of young children. Keeping these products in a cool, dry place will help prevent them from becoming less effective before their expiration dates. Do not store them in bathrooms or bathroom cabinets, which are often hot and humid.
Can echinacea cause any side effects?
Minor side effects can include an upset stomach, nausea, and dizziness. Serious side effects can include worsening of asthma symptoms, and allergic reactions such as rash, swelling, and difficulty breathing. If you have a history of an allergy to daisies, ragweed, marigolds, chrysanthemums, or related plants, you may be more at risk of having an allergic reaction to echinacea. Talk to your doctor right away about any side effects you are having.
Who should not take echinacea?
If you are regularly taking other medicines or are being treated for a chronic condition, check with your doctor before taking echinacea. Echinacea may interact with medicines and reduce their effectiveness or cause unwanted side effects. You should also tell your doctor if you drink alcohol, if you smoke, or if you use illegal drugs. These substances may affect the way echinacea works.
Do not take echinacea if you have any of the following conditions:
- An autoimmune disorder (such as lupus)
- Multiple sclerosis
- Human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection
- Acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS)
- Tuberculosis
You should not take echinacea if you are also taking immunosuppressants because echinacea may interact with these medicines. If you are pregnant or breastfeeding, talk with your doctor before you start taking echinacea.

Do development and scientific study conflict with conservation?
Pat Shipman
One of the intriguing things about C. nanus is its colorful and enigmatic history in the scientific literature. The snail was first described in 1888 by Charles Johnson Maynard, an eccentric zoologist and professional specimen collector. Maynard somehow persuaded a schooner captain who was sailing several hundred kilometers from Kingston, Jamaica, to Grand Cayman to let him off on Cayman Brac, the middle-sized Cayman Island. How Maynard got to Little Cayman is unrecorded, but he probably got a fisherman or turtler to take him the remaining eight kilometers.
Maynard became a Cerion specialist, although he used an older generic name, Strophia. Maynard was not only eccentric, he was also an overly enthusiastic namer of new species. In his life, he named 248 species of Cerion, 10 of which came from Little Cayman. One of these was the dwarf Strophia, S. nana, which later became Cerion nanus. Only two of his Little Cayman species, Cerion pannosum and C. nanus, are accepted by modern scientists. Maynard published his snail work in 1889 in a journal of his own invention, Contributions to Science, which was printed in very small numbers. He explained in his inaugural issue:
I have long felt the need of some organ wherein I could publish papers upon various scientific subjects, where they would be accessible. To be sure, this could be done in the journals of various natural history societies, but this procedure would defeat one of the very objects that I have in view, that of placing my work of this description in a concentrated form, where it can be had by any one who chooses to procure it, without subscribing to the publications of half a dozen societies.
Reading this, my husband and I deduced that Maynard—self-educated in science with some decidedly peculiar ideas about taxonomy—had suffered from rejections by those journals of various natural-history societies. Nonetheless, what Maynard observed about C. nanus would be irresistible to any curious natural historian. He wrote:
The island of Little Cayman is only ten miles long with an average width of two miles [sic], and is thus a mere spot in the waters of the Caribbean Sea, and the Dwarf Strophias occur in a space which is only five or six yards wide by twenty long, on this little key…. I consider that this species has the most restricted range of any animal with which I am acquainted.
Not only did Maynard conclude that C. nanus existed in a single, small population, he also found it almost exclusively on one plant species now known as Evolvulus squamosus. Also called the rockyplains dwarf morning glory, the species is patchily distributed on Little Cayman but also lives on many other Caribbean islands and in Florida. Maynard pronounced C. nanus "dwarfed to an extreme degree, from feeding on the pungent leaves of the plant described." At only about half the length of C. pannosum, C. nanus seemed to compete with the larger, more ubiquitous snail.

Dr. Adnan Cutuk practices orthopaedic sports medicine and shoulder surgery, but his practice isn't limited to high school, college and professional athletes — many of his patients fall into another category.
"The weekend warriors," Cutuk said. "The people like me who love to play sports and are not necessarily competitive, but don't want to give it up."
Dan Story is one of those people. Story, a runner, tripped during a jog in August 2011, breaking his leg and tearing three ligaments and his hamstring.
Story's injury was so severe, he was rushed to the emergency room. There, he was treated by Dr. John Watson and Dr. Cutuk.
"Even when I was riding the morphine-induced state, Dr. Cutuk was able to explain everything to me in a way that made sense," Story said. "He didn't lie to me. He told me it would be a long recovery, but that we would get me back to my former state."
Story had two surgeries over the next two days to fix the bone, reattach most of the ligaments and stabilize his knee. He spent five days in the hospital.
"Dr. Cutuk and his team took care of my health needs, but they were also conversational, and remembered details of my life," Story said. "Anytime I had a question, I would call his nurse, Melody Swehla, and within mere hours I would have a call back and an answer to my question."
His recovery was slow, but with physical therapy Story was able to get around on his own. Still, however, he was unable to run.
So in April 2013, Story had another surgery to reconstruct the final ligaments and restore full function to his knee. Within weeks, he was walking again.
Story continued to check in with Cutuk and Swehla regularly. Last February, Story had his final appointment. Two weeks later, Story went on his first run since the injury. He now considers himself recovered.
"It was a bittersweet appointment when Cutuk told me it was the last time I needed to come into SLUCare," Story said. "He told me good luck, shook my hand and said I would probably be able to ice skate by next winter."

So it would be 13 1/2 by 19 7/8 for a 8 frame box is this correct?Simply reduce the width by 2-3/4" which is the amount of two frames.
You got it! Lid and bottom board reduce width by 2-3/4" as well.
Regards, Barry
I don't have plans for eight frame boxes but I have instructions on how to cut down 10 frame to 8 frame:
Which will give you the roughly the same advice as Barry gave. The typical eight frame box is either 13 3/4" outside or 14" depending on who you buy them from. At 13 3/4" you need to reduce the measurements of all widths by 2 1/2".

Cutting the Mustard
So why did Health Canada choose to add a food like mustard seed to its list? According to Food Allergen Program Manager Michael Abbott, the government agency not only looks at which allergens are the most common, but which ones are mostly likely to produce the most severe reactions, because they especially need to be clearly labeled on food packaging.
Then, to narrow down the possibilities, Health Canada uses specific, science-based criteria: things like double-blind, placebo-controlled food challenges to confirm the allergy; case reports from physicians; evidence that demonstrates serious allergenicity even in small quantities; and proof that the food is commonly used in Canada.
Although several foods, including onions and garlic, were in the running, only mustard ended up making the cut because there was sufficient scientific evidence to show its allergenicity, and because while allergies to mustard are rare – a small fraction of peanut allergy rates, in fact – the reactions tend to be serious.
As well, mustard is often hidden in ingredient terms such as "spices" or "natural flavours", making it especially difficult for allergic shoppers to protect themselves.
"We're trying to minimize risks associated with inadvertent consumption of these allergens and maximize choices for people who don't want over-labeling," says Abbott. Not surprisingly, Health Canada also regularly hears from people with serious allergies to foods that haven't made the list. "I feel for those people as well. But we are trying to address the foods that are most commonly associated with severe adverse reactions so we get the maximum benefit."
Like Peas in a Pod
Currently, Health Canada is not seriously considering any other allergens for its priority list, but Dr. Ham Pong believes the list will have to continue to grow and adapt as our diets, and our bodies, change over time.
Sunflower seeds are common culprits in his practice – far more than mustard seeds – and he also has his eye on legumes such as lentils and chickpeas, which are top allergens in countries including India, where they form a staple part of the diet. He also expects to see more allergies to tropical fruits such as kiwi, mango, lychees and longans as their popularity in North America grows.
Dr. Susan Waserman, an allergist at McMaster University in Hamilton, agrees. In her practice, allergies to lentils and fresh fruits such as kiwi and mango have appeared, whereas they were unheard of in the not-too-distant past, and more parents are reporting severe symptoms with chicken than with wheat.
Waserman emphasizes that these emerging allergies are still relatively rare, and that the top allergens are still the offenders behind the vast majority of reactions – but that is always subject to change.
"It's a moving baseline. Over the past few decades, people have become more allergic. We have different lifestyles, different exposures, different drugs, different immigrant groups who are coming in with different cooking patterns – and all of these things are likely interacting to affect the natural history of the old allergies or bring up new ones," says Waserman.
"So I never say never any more. No matter what somebody says they've had an adverse reaction to, it's worth looking into."

I purchased some of the Mann Lake Styrofoam mating nucs:
The mini frames obviously don't have foundation.
What's the best way to "start" the frames, to get comb on them so the bees will have somewhere to have the queen lay?
Is this even advisable?
I though about modifying a standard Langstroth frame to put a couple of mini-frames in it, and then putting it in one of my full-size hives to get the bees to draw out the foundation.
What have others done?

Local hangout closes in Big Stone Gap
BIG STONE GAP, Va. - Most small towns across the country have a place where everyone seems to gather. It could be a barber shop or a garage, but for Big Stone Gap it's the Mutual Drug Store, or "The Mutual" as they call it.
The pharmacy, variety store and lunch counter will close on July 26, ending 60 years of doing business in the same location.
It was depicted in best-selling books written about Big Stone Gap and on any given day you'll find customers from all walks of life visiting and sharing conversation.
One customer has been dropping by since 1969; that's 44 years. "I was talking to one of the federal judges there as I was leaving. He's over this district. He hadn't been over here in seven years, lives in Abingdon and he said it would really hurt them on court days not having a place to eat," Barney Gilley said.
The pharmacy was bought out by a national chain, but there's hope the lunch counter will be bought by someone else and continue the long-running tradition.

Thank You, our stay in your apartment was wonderful
The apartment it's very nice,bright and clean.
The location it's the best in Lyon- 4 min to train station and the biggest shopping mall in Lyon,5 min to the river and the center oc the city. Vert quiet building,perfect for relax. We will visit againg Lyon as soon as possible. I love already this city!
Fantastic stay, great location. Highly recommend.
nice clean small flat, and located in the middle of lyon. Communication with emilie was great and fast.
Great spacious apartment with wonderful view over the river. Apartment had everything you needed and was very light. Very good communications with the owner, highly recommended. Nice walk into the town along the river and free parking on road outside.
Clean but too small for 2; shower leaks, good locale.
The studio was great! Centrally located - shops and attractions are either a short walk away or a short ride on public transport. The studio comes with free wifi and cable TV which is a bonus and is equipped with all necessary cooking equipment. The hosts Emilie and Mickael and great also.
Great little flat in the Croix-Rousse which is a handy neighbourhood for shops, metro, etc...
Great communication with Emilie, clean and very practical little place to stay. It is a bit dark though if you are planning on staying outside in the little courtyard.

As we learned a year ago when the NBA All-Star Game came to DFW, the party landscape changes minute-to-minute as events are added and dropped based on which celebrity can be secured and which venue is available. Another thing we learned during last year's blizzard conditions was that if celebrities and beautiful girls are in the house, people will come. Now all that is left is to do is get the scoop on where to go to see the hottest events. Or, as this is the first Super Bowl in DFW, which are the parties to see and be seen?
Annually, Playboy and Maxim battle it out for the best bash. The Playboy party will be Friday, Feb. 4, at the Aloft Hotel in downtown Dallas. Maxim's event is slated for Saturday evening inside Centennial Hall at Fair Park. And don't forget to check out GQ and its multiple parties at Land Co/7 Senses in Dallas Design District.
Sports Illustrated is hosting its party in Dallas at the Tower Building in Fair Park while ESPN The Magazine's NEXT bash is slated to take place as a private red carpet event at River Ranch in the Stockyards in north Fort Worth.
The Sports Illustrated B4 party is scheduled for Friday night and is promoting the Black Eyed Peas as its hosts. That means it will be going directly against The Event, featuring Prince, which will be held at the spot formerly occupied by Reunion Arena, the Pamela Anderson Super Bash at the Fashion Industry Gallery and the Leather & Laces party at Hotel ZaZa.
One thing is for certain, this is destined to be the biggest party week in the history of DFW!

Obama's turnout pitch to Latinos: Get out there and punish your "enemies"
posted at 5:18 pm on October 25, 2010 by Allahpundit
I wonder how this rhetoric squares with his standard condescending line about Republican-leaning voters not thinking clearly because their minds are clouded by economic anxiety. Does economic anxiety also explain why Latino turnout isn't quite where the Democrats need it to be (although, per this new Politico poll, it's getting there)? Or is this the first, last, and only case this year of The One admitting that his own failures — specifically, the failure to pass amnesty — might be even partly responsible for the Democrats' predicament? And what about those supposed "enemies" that Latinos should be turning out to punish? Are they actual enemies like those shadowy bastards donating to the Chamber of Commerce or, as Obama himself once famously suggested, are they merely bitterly clinging to xenophobia to soothe their own economic frustrations?
Democratic demagoguery can be so confusing.
In a radio interview that aired on Univision on Monday, Mr. Obama sought to assure Hispanics that he would push an immigration overhaul after the midterm elections, despite fierce Republican opposition.
"If Latinos sit out the election instead of saying, 'We're gonna punish our enemies and we're gonna reward our friends who stand with us on issues that are important to us,' if they don't see that kind of upsurge in voting in this election, then I think it's gonna be harder and that's why I think it's so important that people focus on voting on November 2."
Referring specifically to Republicans such as Senator John McCain, who are stressing border security and supporting strict immigration laws like Arizona's anti-illegal immigration measure, Mr. Obama said, "Those aren't the kinds of folks who represent our core American values."
I'm half-disappointed that he didn't go the whole nine yards and call Republicans "un-American" just to put a bow on the last month of campaign rhetoric, but there's still plenty of time until the polls open next Tuesday. Meanwhile, via Jim Geraghty, in the same interview a guy who once touted his election as the moment the rising of the oceans would slow took care to warn Latinos not to expect amnesty overnight since, after all, "I am not king." Which is true: Having 60 seats in the Senate and a huge House majority evokes the power of some lesser nobility, like a duke. To be king, he'd need at least, say, 70 Senate seats. Is that what he's asking for now in order to pass stuff?

The appartment has an unusual but interesting and smart floor plan. Lots of rustic and old feel mixed with modern stuff.
We were missing a pair of scissors and a coffee mug or two, but after a mail to John we got the stuff the same day.
A faint odor from the very bottom of the stairs connecting the loft with the rest of the apartment but it wasn't too bad.
Overall we were very happy with our stay.
The Hollmark family from Stockholm, Sweden.
Nice, clean and perfectly located. Highly recommended!
I went to Paris to spent four days with my sister and I found a very dirty flat. Anyway the neighborhood was very nice. We had to change the sheets because they had stains. Under the table there were some dirty socks. Wifi was available only for first 24 hours. I had to contact with the owner five times and the only answer was "how can I solve the problem?, in most places of Paris there was free wifi."
I wouldn't recommend this flat because it's was a unpleasant experience with it.
We had a wonderful time in Paris and mostly because of our quite small but very comfortable and convenient apartment. It's situated in a strategic position: Although it's really close to any kind of shop and many good restaurants and bars, it's in the internal part of the building so it is very silent. Absolutely suggested.
The apartment is smaller than the pictures, and is no so beauty as the pictures.
Actually this is not a recommendable place.
When we arrived we think "We should have gone to an hotel".
We never met John as from what I understand this is a company of various apartments in Paris, so we were greeted by Guillermo (I presume an employee) a very pleasant guy who was happy to give us some tips on the Area but as he had to shoot off to another apartment could not stay to long and chat.
The flat is small, smaller than the actual pictures (30 m in totall / 2 rooms ) but nice and clean. Kitchen is also smaller in real life! Bathroom is a few years old but clean. To be honest we where a bit disappointed with the size since for this price I think we could have got a larger / nicer flat but due to late booking this was one of the few available for our dates and Area,
Advantages: The area, Le Marais is one of the better spots to stay in Paris , (close to everything) and the district is quite trendy with many places to dine and wine and shops / Galeries and the Sunday market is quite an experience.
Disadvantages, the price and size of apartment, being an attic with fairly high windows does not help too much, although the flat is quite bright.
In all not sure if we got our value for money here, I have seen better flats with similar or lower prices, however the service was good and no real complains with the company or Wimdu
Would I go back to the same flat, I dont think so as next time I would book in advance just to find a better deal for my cash.
Excellent location!!! The apartment is in a great supurb surrounded by some of the cities best cafes. Only downsides were it was on rthe 6th floor with no elevater and the hot water does not last long. Other then that, the apartment is well equiped and i would definately rwcommend a stay here
Excellent appartment and excellent location. Well equipped and suiteful for a sall family.
The apartment is charming, quiet and well situated. It has everything that you need. I would suggest a couple of improvements : 1. The fridge needs to be changed or fixed as it was leaking water. 2. The extra pillows have to be changed as they were too dirty.

Reviews of this property
five stars - it was a very fine place to the price. The house is central in the middle of the very charming area. The house was clean and it is great that the house have two toilets. One thing there would improve the place, is to clean up the garden, then it could be a lovely place to sit
Last weekend we stayed at Kazzos room. Over all it was a really nice stay. Our room and the whole apartment was clean, for breakfast there were different cornflakes options and most important for us the house is centrally located.
The only thing that was not ok was the window in our room, which even closed created a strong draught, so the whole room was really cold.
Everything worked wonderfully. From the nice contact via email to departure everything was great. The room is big enough and everything is clean. The bathroom has also been always clean. WiFi has always worked. Top Location of the apartment with a very close metro station.
And has it undwürden there really liked this apartment always a friend
Es hat alles wunderbar funktioniert. Vom netten Kontakt per Mail bis zur Abreise war alles super. Das Zimmer ist ausreichend groß und alles ist sauber. Das Badezimmer ist auch immer sauber gewesen. WLAN hat immer funktioniert. Top Lage der Wohnung mit einer sehr nahen U-Bahnstation.

text: Producers and consumers in North America should be very happy to have strict standards and trustworthy (generally, we hope) businesses in terms of both human and animal health. China is in the news for milk, again. This time it is China Mengniu Dairy Company, the nation's largest dairy producer according to Bloomberg News China. Mengniu was found to have tested positive for aflatoxin likely from moldy feed. Yesterday the publicly traded company dropped 13.4 percent ($1.4 billion U.S.) in market value. Consumers in China have been rattled in recent years with multiple milk scandals. While this might seem to be a boon for non-Chinese producers of dairy products, we worry that it could simply lead to a distrust of all milk products with repeated scandals. China's trouble started in 2008 as melamine (added to raw milk to boost protein levels) sickened several thousand infants and killed a handful. In April 2011, a Chinese dairy farmer was caught adding salt nitrite to a neighbor's milk. That isolated case caused 3 deaths and hospitalized 36 people. Just two weeks ago, the farmer in that case was sentenced to death. Following the investigation from the original melamine scandal and the nitrite case noted above, China shut down 45 percent of their dairy companies (likely 45 percent of the farms or factories, but not 45 percent of the milk or products). Also, in 2011, some pig farmers were accused of feeding illegal supplements to their animals. We're sure that China will continue to move forward, but it will be a slow and developing process. While consumers have had other issues with products from China in the past (lead paint on toys as recently as 2007) those fears have largely been subdued. But we've heard rumors that things like antibiotics just don't carry the harsh penalties as they do in the U.S. We won't spread rumors, but let's just say hot tanks or trucks wouldn't cause us much concern, financially. So that leaves us to answer the original question: What is going on? China has two routes it can take with its ever-growing population: 1. Follow the methods and red tape of the Western world to prevent most of the outbreaks. 2. Rely on other countries to supply their food. While we cannot imagine a system where China is not a large food producer (world leader in pork production), it is also hard to imagine a time where you have no problem pouring a glass of milk with "produced in China" stamped on the bottom.

i cant wait to see this movie! i really feel this is a good transition for selena as well as vanessa. there is violence, sex , alcohol and drugs in this movie which is very intriguing. there is also a lesbian scene but they have said selena is definately not involved in this and not involved in sex and violence. But the other three are. i think the lesbian scene is with vanessa and ashley because of what they were talking about in the interview.

Re: geoffp are you watching!
Sorry to be so long in replying. What I actually said was that I know of at least 40 different "curries"
"Curry" is a generic name we use for the spicy, asian style of cooking, but it actually covers a multitude of different kinds of dish.
Here are some of the distinctly different forms - in no particular order:-
dhansak, korma, bhuna, dopiaza, rogan josh, salan, aachar, kaari,
biryani, Andhra style, keema, dalcha, madras style, makhani, Bombay style, gashi, Chettinad style, Kerala style, vindaloo, Parsee style, patia, Goan style, Molee, khadi, Kashmiri style, Sindhi style, thoran, kalan, olan, pilaf, sorpatel, xacuti, rechad, resala, Country Captain, maachi, malai, sambar, tikka, cholay, patiala, tandoori.
There are also the variety of kebabs - seekh, sharmi, kofte, tika etc.
These are all from the Indian subcontinent - and there are many others I haven't named, such as all the Nepali sandekho dishes, and the many Bangladeshi variations.
In addition we have the Thai red and green curries, the satays, the Malaysian rendangs, the Muslim Chinese curries, the Mongolian steamboats, and many many others.
All these curries are prepared with different meats, seafoods, cheese and vegetables - some such as molee are only with fish, or vindaloo with pork or duck - others are prepared with many different main ingredients - not forgetting the dals, of course.
Then there are the more recent innovations - the baltis and the karahis, and, of course the infamous chicken tikka massala (all invented in England)
I really ought to mention the accompaniments as well - the various ways too cook rice, the many different breads, and the multitude of chutneys, pickles and raitas, as well as the dals and other basics - but those are all subjects in themselves.
You won't find most of these curries in restaurants - though there will be subsets of them, depending on the restaurants own style. Most restaurants at the lower end of the market don't prepare curries individually, but instead prepare (or even buy in, curry sauces, which are added to the cooked meats/fish/cheese/vegetables at the last minute - you can recognise this from the menus, which ade often divided by type (usually a dozen or so standard styles), and then subdivided by the meet/fish/cheese/vegetable.
No proper curries use "curry power" which is practically unknown in India! Insrad, the indvidual spices are cooked, ground, mixed and blended as apropriate for each dish, and fresh ginger, garlic and chillis etc are used.
However, if you are just starting to cook curries, you won't have the necessary ingredients to hand. I would suggest that to start, you buy good quality curry pastes, and follow the instructions on them. Go for the genuine article, such as Patak's or Laziza or Koh-in-Noor (all of which I have seen used in India or Pakistan). Alternatvely, you can cheat using tge "cook-in" sauces from the same producers - avoid using the Supermarket's "own-brand" stuff, or the "Home Pride" or "Uncle Ben's" imitations!
So, any different types, styles and regional variations on what we call "curry" - lots to learn, and even more to enjoy. I'll try to post a few of my favourites over the next few weeks, but I'll hae to retype mist of them,since they have beenculled frommany different sources - books, friends, observations and visits as well as some from the internet.
I don't have any favourites - or rather, I have too many favourites - I've cooked all the curries mentioned above, and haven't found any I wouldn't do again. I always serve two or three different curries in a meal - meat, dal, vegetable, with appropriate bread or rice, and half a dozen different pickles/chutneys, and a fresh raita -it all makes for a balanced meal. I usually precede this with pappads and pickles,but rarely follow with anything sweet (occassinally a kulfi ir perhaps rassmalai if I have guests and can be bothered!
Recipes follow!

Re: geoffp are you watching!
Aab Gosht - Kashmir (Lamb Cooked in Milk)
A very mild dish, with no chillies, ginger or garlic
Serves: 4
Preparation Time: 45 mins
Cooking Time: 90 mins
8 saffron strands or 1/2 tspn saffron powder or 1/2 tspn turmeric
700g stewing lamb, cubed or chops
100g shallots
4 tblspns oil
250g lamb bones for stock
1 bay leaf
2 cloves
6 green cardamoms
2 x 4cm cinnamon sticks
4 cups (1 litre) milk
2 tblspns cream
1 1/4 tspns ground fennel
1/2 tspn ground cumin
1/4 tspn ground white pepper
1/2 tspn sugar
salt to taste
1) Soak the saffron strands in 1/4 cup water. Soak the lamb in lukewarm water for 30 minutes, until lightened in colour.
2) Purée the peeled shallots in a food processor, and fry in 2 tblspns of the oil in a frying pan until golden.
3) Boil the meat and bones in a cooking pot in 6 cups water, along with 3/4 tspn salt, the bay leaf, 1 clove, 3 cardamoms, 1 cinnamon stick and the fried shallots until tender. Lift out the meat and set aside. Strain the stock and discard the bones.
4) While the meat is cooking, bring the milk to boil in another pot, with the remaining clove, cardamoms and cinnamon stick. Put a wooden spoon into the pot to prevent the milk boiling over.

Now add the meat and 3 cups of the stock to the milk.

Fry for just 10 seconds, then pour the oil mixture into the meat, add the sugar and milk; season with salt to taste. Cook for a few minutes with lid on to prevent the meat from darkening.
6) To serve, reheat uncovered and simmer for about 2 minutes. Add the saffron just before removing from the heat.

Country Captain Chicken
Americans in thedeep south have claimed this as their own - but this is the real original Indian recipe.
whole chicken
Serves 4
Preparation time less than 30 mins
Cooking time 30 mins to 1 hour
1 large roasting chicken, cut into 8 pieces
120g/4oz butter
3 large onions, thinly sliced
2 garlic cloves, finely chopped
1 tbsp grated fresh ginger root
2 cloves
2 bay leaves
2.5cm/1in cassia stick
1 tsp turmeric
2 tsp freshly ground black pepper
¾ tbsp finely chopped fresh green/red chilli
200ml/7fl oz chicken stock
½ lemon, juice only
salt and freshly ground black pepper
fresh coriander leaves, to garnish
To serve
200g/7oz rice, cooked according to packet instructions
red onion, sliced into rings
bacon, cut into thin strips and fried until crisp
fresh coconut, grated
1 free-range egg, hard-boiled and chopped
1. Heat a large frying pan until hot then add half of the butter and all of the chicken pieces. Fry the chicken, stirring frequently, until golden-brown on all sides, then remove from the pan and set aside.
2. Melt the remaining butter in another large frying pan over a medium heat. Add the onion and fry for 3-4 minutes, until softened and golden-brown.
3. Add the ginger and garlic and fry for one minute.
4. Add the cloves, bay leaves, cassia stick, turmeric, black pepper and chillies and fry for 1-2 minutes to release the flavours.
5. Add the chicken pieces and half of the stock. Reduce the heat and simmer for about 20 minutes until the chicken is tender and completely cooked through. (If necessary, add more stock during cooking to prevent the chicken from sticking to the pan.)
6. Add the lemon juice, season, to taste, with salt and freshly ground black pepper and garnish with chopped coriander leaves.
7. To serve, place a spoonful of cooked rice onto each of four plates and spoon the curry alongside. Sprinkle with red onion rings, crispy bacon, coconut, peanuts and hard-boiled egg.

Chicken Korma
Korma is a classic North Indian dish of which there are many variations. The recipe below, cooked with readily available ingredients, is like no Korma you've had in a British restaurant and is closer to the 'classic' korma dish.
Serves: 6
Preparation Time:
15-minutes, plus time to marinade.
Cooking Time:
1.5kg/2.5lbs chicken breasts or chicken joints, skinned and washed
1-inch cube of root-ginger, finely grated
150g/6oz thick natural set yogurt
1-medium onion, coarsely chopped
2-3 dried red chillies Buy...
3-4 cloves garlic, peeled and coarsely chopped
6 tbsps ghee or cooking oil
450g/1lb onions, finely sliced
1 tbsp ground coriander
¼ tsp powdered black pepper
1 tsp garam masala
1 tsp ground turmeric
225ml/8fl oz warm water
75g/3oz creamed coconut
½ tsp salt
2 heaped tbsps ground almonds
2 tbsps finely chopped coriander leaves
Juice of ½ a lemon
1. Cut chicken breasts into 1½ inch chunks or, if using joints, separate leg from thigh.
2. Mix the chicken with the ginger and yogurt and cover and leave to marinade for 3-4 hours or in the fridge overnight.
3. Put the chopped onion, red chillies and garlic into a food processor or liquidiser and liquidise to a smooth paste. If the mix is too dry add a little water.
4. In a wok or large cast-iron pot, heat 4 tbsps of the ghee or oil over medium heat and fry the sliced onions until they are golden-brown. Remove the pan from the heat and, using a slotted spoon, transfer the onions to a bowl for use later. Leave any remaining oil in the pan.
5. Add the remaining 2 tbsps ghee or of oil to the pan over medium heat.
6. When hot, add the ground coriander, garam masala and turmeric stirring rapidly for about 1-minute (take pan off the heat if the oil is too hot).
7. Adjust the heat to medium and add the chicken along with the marinade. Stir fry for about 10-minutes.
8. Add the liquidised spices and continue to stir-fry for about 8-minutes.
9. Add the water and slice the creamed coconut into the pan. Bring to the boil stirring until the coconut is dissolved.
10. Add the fried onions and salt.
11. Reduce heat to low, cover the pan and simmer until the chicken is tender (30-40 minutes).
12. Remove from heat, sprinkle on the ground almonds, chopped coriander leaves and lemon juice and mix well.
Serving ideas: Serve with Pilau Rice and Onion Bhaji.

Another billboard mystery in Minnesota?
posted at 11:36 am on March 15, 2010 by Ed Morrissey
Somehow, I think people will miss this man more than the one featured in the "Miss Me Yet?" billboard that appeared outside the Twin Cities in Minnesota last month. Another anonymous advertisement has appeared on the roadside of a major interstate freeway in the outer-ring suburbs of the Minneapolis-St. Paul metropolis area, on I-94 just outside of Albertville on the way from St. Cloud to Minneapolis. This ad recalls a President that never got his due in Minnesota:
Who paid for this ad? There are no indications on the sign itself, just as with the previous "Miss Me Yet?" sign with George W. Bush. Ronald Reagan never won Minnesota in either of his two national elections, but clearly someone recalls him fondly. It's not cheap to pay for this kind of advertising, and it would be interesting to discover who's behind this one.
Update: This is not a photoshop. I contacted Franklin Outdoor Advertising, who confirmed that they have this sign up at I-94. It was funded by a private effort, but the person to whom I spoke did not know who specifically that includes.
Update II: Also, just for some background, the "Miss Me Yet?" billboard was purchased through one of Franklin's competitors.
Update III: Not sure why people are still insisting that this is a photoshop, but maybe King Banaian's eyewitness account will help:
Ed posts about a sign on I-94. I saw it for the first time on Saturday morning as I drove to the Twin Cities for meetings and eventually the MOB party. … It gets very good visibility after you come out from under the Albertville overpass on the road traveling east. I did not realize how fresh the sign was, but Saturday was the first time I saw it.
King also recalls Reagan's speech at Westminster in 1982. Be sure to read it.
Update IV: Local alt paper City Pages picks up the story, and gives proper credit back to Hot Air. Hart Van Denburg also gets confirmation from Franklin.
Update V: CBS News' Brian Montopoli picks up the story as well:
A billboard has appeared in Minnesota featuring a photograph of former President Ronald Reagan and the words, "Remember real hope and change?"
The billboard, first reported by Ed Morrissey at the blog Hot Air, is reminiscent of the "Miss Me Yet?" billboard that appeared in Minnesota last month.
The CBS folks believe that the photo I used has been retouched in some way, although it looks more like the process of converting it to JPG format has created some irregularities. CBS also confirmed that the billboard exists with Franklin's owner, Keith Franklin. I'll ask friends in the area to take a fresh picture of it and send the raw file back to me.

Ed, I'm guessing folks thought is was PS because the photo is so clear and the billboard pops out of the picture.
Good job to whoever took the photo. They know their business. It also looks very clean and fresh, so I'm guessing the billboard hasn't been up to long and that goes towards folks thinking it's PS.
