Desperate. And it just so happened that I was going to dinner at his parents' place that Friday night, so I thought.. I'll make him challah, he always whines that it's nearly impossible to braid GF dough so I thought I'd try! Anyway, i was looking for gf challah recipes and instead I came upon this which just looked too good to pass. I made it on baking sheets since I didn't have the french bread pans and I made slashes at the top to make it look like a baguette. Wouldn't you know, when I took it out of the oven, the slashes made it look like it was braided! And my bf's mother ooohed and ahed telling me it tasted just like glutenous challah. So, regardless of what kind of bread it is, it's good and crusty! email@example.com:blogger.com,1999:blog-19281824.post-25944720110863313812010-09-01T17:58:29.964-07:002010-09-01T17:58:29.964-07:00Thanks for the help.

Many people report they can "taste" the Ener-G Egg Replacer. Perhaps I'm just used to it. I'm thinking- what if you added a teaspoon of sugar to fight the bitter aftertaste you detect? Or is there another vegan egg replacer you've come to enjoy?

Please do put your flour mix into the recipe when you have it ready. I keep the individual flours, so when I read this, I could go make it NOW without waiting. Also, I can't have rice, so many packaged flours are off limits for me.
Thanks! I've had a French Bread pan for years! but had only used it once or twice before I went gluten-free. Can't believe it has been over 6 years! No gluten, grains, beans, eggs, milk or soy, and only a bit of cheese. I, too, carry boring things, just so I will have a bite to eat when I'm out. Your recipes help give me hope.
I know that woman does not live by bread alone, but by the living word given by God. However, to prove that God loves us, he provides this joyous, delectable food--almost heavenly--bread. It is His sign of love to me that even in this flawed fibromyalgic gluten/egg-free body, I can sit with my love, a loaf, and wine on a blanket and ENJOY life.MarlaM-mamahttp://email@example.com:blogger.com,1999:blog-19281824.post-53837420178649077872010-06-27T15:46:46.743-07:002010-06-27T15:46:46.743-07:00I just broke down and ordered French bread pans, a...I just broke down and ordered French bread pans, after staring at these baguettes for the past few days.

The sorghum and millet in the Pamela's mix creates a rustic bread- with more flavor than typical white flour baguettes. That said, I'll be experimenting with my own flour mix soon, now that I have the French bread pan.

As for the pan, if you don't have one or want one, you could always line a cookie sheet with parchment paper and form two long loaves on it.

Dance queen Lady GaGa fashions booming career
By Cortney Harding
NEW YORK (Billboard) - Sprawled on her bed in an Amsterdam hotel, Lady GaGa is channeling Lady Godiva - sans the horse.
While the 23-year-old has famously worn everything from Kermit the Frog to a hat made to resemble the solar system, today she's rocking the one constant in her ever shifting wardrobe-underpants. And nothing more.
But despite her dominance on the pop charts worldwide and bleached blonde hair, GaGa is not the average pop tart. She's an accomplished songwriter and performer who seems to have come out of nowhere, bursting from the corner of Ludlow and Rivington fully formed and fabulous. In conversation, she's chatty and articulate, but gives off the distinct sense she's 10 steps ahead of everyone else -- while the Internet is still buzzing about the lampshade she wore over her face in a TV interview, she's plotting her next move.
Of course, if she invests wisely, she may never need to work again: Her debut album, "The Fame" has sold nearly 1.3 million copies in the United States since its low-key release last September via Interscope. For the year, it's both the best-selling set for a debut artist, and the fifth-best-selling album overall.
Her digital single, "Just Dance," has sold 4.4 million copies, according to Nielsen SoundScan, the No. 2 best-selling digital song of all time. Earlier this week, she snagged nine nominations at the MTV Video Music Awards, sharing the lead with Beyonce.
In addition to co-writing all the tracks on her album, GaGa has previously written for Fergie, the Pussycat Dolls, Britney Spears and New Kids on the Block.
"Getting into writing for others happened naturally, because at the time, I didn't have a record deal," GaGa says. "I don't have an ego about other people singing my songs."
And-as surprising as it may seem amid her outre outfits and the nudge-nudge-wink-wink lyrics-GaGa's path from behind-the-scenes songwriter to cultural phenomenon was a smart, regimented plan. Before she was Lady GaGa, she was Stefani Joanne Angelina Germanotta, an Italian Catholic schoolgirl from Yonkers, N.Y. She played piano and studied music as a child, but it wasn't until she hit her early 20s that her songwriting and performance style clicked. Continued...

Former Scotland full-back Andy Irvine was confirmed as tour manager and immediately turned his attention to the identity of the next head coach. McGeechan had declared the epic series defeat by South Africa in 2009 would be his last in the post, but his name remains synonymous with the Lions following seven tours as a player or coach.
Irvine insisted the 63-year-old, currently Bath's performance director, would be an outstanding candidate if he could be tempted to reverse his decision and said: "Geech is back in the fold at Bath. We've very much got an open mind on Geech - his record speaks for itself, he's Lions through to the core and did a fantastic job on the last tour."
He added: "He has to be a consideration. If he rules himself out I wouldn't want to put any pressure on him.
"Whoever coaches the Lions has to want to do it, but if Ian throws his hat into the ring we'd seriously have to look at it.
"The last tour got an awful lot of things right and that should be the template for the way forward."
If he changes his mind, McGeechan's strongest rival for the post is Gatland, though a significant obstacle would have to be overcome for the Wales coach to be appointed.
Irvine deems it unlikely that any of the coaches in the 2013 Six Nations will be considered due to the demands of the Lions. For Gatland to be involved a break clause in his contract with the Welsh Rugby Union, which has been extended until 2015, would have to be negotiated.
The WRU are unlikely to be pleased at the prospect of losing the central figure of their management team for up to a season and Irvine admits availability is an issue.
"It's not feasible for a head coach to run the national side in the Six Nations prior to the tour because it would be asking too much," he said. "The national sides would probably baulk at that idea anyway because their national coach's eye would be taken off the ball."Reuse content

[Note: Guidance for ENERGY STAR Certified Homes Version 3.0, Revision 08 is coming soon.]
Builders, raters, and installers use this portion (Section 1) of the HVAC System Quality Installation Rater Checklist (HVAC/R) to confirm and document that the contractor has completed proper procedures and processes in sizing HVAC equipment.
This page provides the full language for the selected checklist requirement and shows the applicable footnotes describing how to comply; however, a full measure guide showing installation information is not needed.
The numbers in parentheses (included in the measures in this Section 1) refer to measures included in the HVAC System Quality Installation Contractor Checklist (HVAC/C). For information about installing HVAC equipment, see Sections 2 through 11 of HVAC System Quality Installation Rater Checklist (HVAC/R).
The footnotes for this measure are listed below. The numbering corresponds to the original checklist document so some numbers may appear out of sequence.
1. This Checklist is designed to align with the requirements of ASHRAE 62.2-2010 and published addenda and ANSI/ACCA's 5 QI-2007 protocol, thereby improving the performance of HVAC equipment in new homes when compared to homes built to minimum code. However, these features alone cannot prevent all ventilation, indoor air quality, and HVAC problems, (e.g., those caused by a lack of maintenance by occupants). Therefore, this Checklist is not a guarantee of proper venilation, indoor air quality, or HVAC performance.
2. The Rater is only responsible for ensuring that the Contractor has completed the Contractor Checklist in its entirety and verifying the discrete objective parameters referenced in Section 1 of this Checklist, not for assessing the accuracy of the load calculations or field verifications included or for verifying the accuracy of every input on the Contractor Checklist.

Teacher Elisabeth Wignacourt admits the first week she tried to teach French to first graders in Kaysville, it was a bit rough.
But after a short time, her young students at Morgan Elementary School caught on.
"It's really amazing how quickly they get the language," Wignacourt said.
Wignacourt is one of three teachers from France that the French government is paying to work in Utah schools as part of the state's dual-immersion program this year. And Monday, Utah education leaders signed an agreement with French officials to continue the cooperation in hopes of bringing more French teachers here from France and eventually sending Utah teachers there to teach English.
"The world continues to be a broader world each day," said Larry Shumway, state superintendent. "Creating these opportunities for students to encounter the whole world in their education is crucial."
In all, 25 Utah schools now have state-funded dual-immersion programs, including the schools where the three teachers from France work, said Gregg Roberts, a world languages specialist at the State Office of Education. Typically starting in first grade, students in the programs spend half their day with a teacher who speaks English and the other half with a teacher who speaks either French, Mandarin or Spanish.
Roberts said dual-immersion language programs will expand to 14 more schools this fall. The teachers can generally stay here for one to three years, Roberts said.
The state office already has agreements with Spain, Mexico and China, which help supply some of the state's Spanish and Mandarin teachers, Roberts said. Utah became the 12th state Monday in the country to sign a memorandum of understanding with a French education system, in this case the Academie de Grenoble, said Kareen Rispal, a cultural counselor at the Embassy of France.
She said the partnership is a good way to build relationships and for France to promote the French language, which is spoken in more than 50 countries on five continents.
"We truly think that in our society, being able to express yourself in another language that's not your mother tongue is something that will foster relationships between countries," Rispal said.
The French teachers added they enjoy the opportunity to see a different culture, practice their English and learn about a different education system. Caroline Hubac, who teaches French at Diamond Ridge Elementary in West Valley City, has noticed American students learn more by repetition and spend more time on reading and math than French students.
She said she uses a lot of pictures and visuals in her lessons to help first-graders understand her as she's speaking French.
Lisa Twitchell, a facilitator at Edgemont Elementary in Provo, said the French immersion program there has proved popular. About 75 Edgemont first-graders are now learning French, and she said the school might have to create a lottery to get into the program next school year.
"These kids will be fluent French speakers," Twitchell said. "It's a real marketability when they get into the real world to be able to speak another language."

"It's crazy, but you have to be ready to adapt and roll with it. It's all I really can say," said Green. "To me he's really disciplined. He's really disciplined in the DB room. I feel like I'm really getting a better understanding of the defense with him each day. I feel like he's really a great teacher."
Last fall, defensive backs talked about the differences in former coach Marvin Sanders and Corey Raymond. They said Raymond was a technician and focused on the little fundamental things at corner – tearing many of them down and building them back up.
While some might think having three coaches in one year could be a blessing, with players taking the positives from each coach, Green doesn't look at it that way.
"You have to listen to your coach, so sometimes you have to drop what your other coach might have said," said the junior. "You can see the different perspectives though and how much a defensive back is about technique and different crafts."
So what has Green had to drop?
"We are now kind of playing off man and press. We will be a little more balanced."
Green made 10 starts in 2011, recording 48 tackles and snagging one interception. He says the biggest thing he worked on physically about his game between the bowl and spring practices was his press techniques.

Subway Tops McDonald's as No. 1 Worker Lunch SpotBy
Let's face it: More often than not these days, a working lunch involves footlongs, not oysters and martinis. Between attending meetings and watching late-night reruns of Friends in a midrange hotel, most businesspeople are catching quick meals at fast-food joints, cafeterias, and airports. So much for glamour. Clearly people are not taking full advantage of their expense accounts.
In the first quarter, Subway beat McDonald's as the most popular lunch spot for workers, according to Certify, an expense report management software company, based on 1.96 million U.S. expense receipts from the first three months of the year. The sandwich chains were followed by Starbucks.
It makes sense, based on the chain's ubiquity: Subway has about 25,870 U.S. restaurants and McDonald's has about 14,160. Despite having more locations, Subway is only now taking the lead. In the full year 2012, Subway ranked second for working lunches after McDonald's, while Starbucks and Panera Bread came in third and fourth, respectively, according to Certify data.
"A lot of people who are traveling Monday through Friday, professional service workers, consultants, have got to grab something on the go and keep on working," says Robert Neveu, chief executive officer of Certify, based in Portland, Me. "People do go out for the big meals, but when you look at the vast volume of transactions, unfortunately it's fast food in America."
Certify identifies the top 10 lunch spots* for business travelers. Based on the average bill, some restaurants, like Panera and Chick-Fil-A, are more popular for group meals than others.
1. Subway (average bill: $10.79)
2. McDonald's ($7.16)
3. Starbucks ($8.09)
4. HMS Host, i.e. airport or convention center ($14.57)
5. Panera Bread ($38.66)
6. Culinart, i.e. office cafeteria ($9.50)
7. Wendy's ($8.33)
8. Burger King ($15.51)
9. Chick-Fil-A ($24.25)
10. Chili's ($26.69)
*Based on Certify data from January through March 2013

It's not a good time to be any other car in Cadillac's lineup besides the CTS. While the brand's new sedan racks up accolades and fresh converts, the other vehicles wearing a wreath and crest badge stand around like the siblings that didn't grow up to be president.
Then there's the 556-hp CTS-V, Cadillac's brand new halo car, a role that used to be played by the XLR hardtop convertible. The XLR has a V version, too, but it has only 443 units of whoopass under its hood. It was, however, refreshed for the 2009 model year and can now be found resting comfortably in the shadow created by everyone crowding around the CTS-V. Let's see if the 2009 Cadillac XLR-V deserves its fate in the shade.

We're Here to Help
Stay Smart This Holiday Season
10 Holiday Shopping Tips
- Make a list and set a budget. Write down who you are going to buy for and how much you are going to spend on them. Include an idea you wish to purchase for each person on your list. Make sure you stick to your list and don't purchase on impulse.
- Do your research. Looking through store flyers and Web sites can help you research, compare prices, and plan more accurately. Taking the time to do this can save you lots of time, money, and aggravation.
- Everyone loves a bargain. Take advantage of days like Black Friday and Cyber Monday. These popular shopping days can save you lots of money, especially on items like electronics, where you can save almost 50 percent. Makes sure to also look for special sales and store coupons before you begin your shopping!
- Say no to store credit cards. Although the store may offer you 10-20 percent off your purchase if you apply for a store credit card, it doesn't outweigh the potential downfall to your plan. Pay in cash or with your Campus Federal Debit or Credit Card. Most of us find it harder to deviate from our budget and plan when we have to hand over cash for something.
- Give the gift of savings. If you cannot come up with the perfect gift, you may want to consider a Visa gift card, cash or a savings bond. Although you may think these types of gifts are not exciting, they may be much more appreciated than you may realize. We offer Visa gift cards for purchase at all of our branches.
- Stay safe while shopping this holiday season. Carry as few credit cards as possible and periodically check to make sure you still have them. Avoid carrying your Social Security card and passport unless it is needed. Remember to dispose of credit card and ATM receipts properly.
- Keep your Debit and ATM Card safe. Keep your PIN to yourself. No company or individual needs to know your PIN; not even your financial institution. Memorize your PIN, and never write it on your card or store it with your card. Never let a cashier, teller or other stranger enter your PIN for you. Treat your card like cash and always store your card in a safe place.
- Always be aware of your surroundings. When using an outdoor ATM such as in a parking lot, look for suspicious activity before you begin your transaction. Make sure to remain alert and on guard when walking to your vehicle not only in the evenings, but also during the day.
- Shop carefully online. If you initiate an online transaction and must provide personal data, look for indicators that the site is secure, like "https" in the Web address or the closed padlock icon in the bottom frame of your browser. It is also wise to conduct financial transactions on wired Internet connections only. Wireless connections can be more vulnerable to attack.
- Get in the holiday spirit. Be joyful and merry! Have a very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!

U.N. seeks $1.5 billion to help suffering Syrians
By Stephanie Nebehay
GENEVA (Reuters) - The United Nations appealed on Wednesday for $1.5 billion to help save the lives of millions of Syrians suffering a "dramatically deteriorating" humanitarian situation.
The twin appeals are for $519.6 million to help 4 million people within Syria and $1 billion to meet the needs of up to 1 million Syrian refugees in five other countries until July 2013.
The United Nations said they comprised the "largest short-term humanitarian appeal ever", but still fell some way short of a comprehensive relief plan.
"The violence in Syria is raging across the country and there are nearly no more safe areas where people can flee and find safety," Radhouane Nouicer, U.N. regional humanitarian coordinator for Syria, told a news briefing in Geneva.
Noting that Syria's capital Damascus was the scene of "daily shelling and bombing", he added: "It is a realistic appeal that takes into consideration what we commit ourselves to achieve. It is not a comprehensive response plan, it is limited to what we can do in such a difficult operating environment."
U.N. Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon called on countries to respond generously to the appeals presented to donor governments in Geneva as winter takes hold in the region.
"I'm considering convening an international donor conference, in close coordination with key partners, early next year," he told reporters in New York.

Separate names with a comma.
Discussion in 'TiVo Mini' started by cmonroe, Mar 8, 2013.
You would need to plug the USB dongle into the Mini. The Mini does not have built in Bluetooth.
I broke down and bought an XL4 and Mini to watch shows in our master bedroom (wife is pregnant).
Activated both at 5:30pm EDT and still can't connect the Mini to the XL4. When I log onto tivo.com and look at my account, it says it's still processing and may take up to 24 hours.
WTH? Does anyone have a realistic time frame to have everything active? I can't even use my TiVo Stream now until the new DVR is registered (don't have a spare CableCard to install in the old Premiere).
My Mini was 100% functional during the 24 hour processing time at tivo.com. How do you have them networked? What is happening on the mini? Did you select "allow live tv on other devices" on your XL4?
Yes, I selected allow live TV on other devices on the XL4 (1 tuner). The Mini is connected via MoCA. It's getting a network connection because it's downloaded software updates (or at least connected to the network and downloaded something).
It's stuck on a screen that it can't find a compatible DVR on the network.
Have you tried rebooting the XL4? Note that after getting a new TiVo it does take 48-72 hours for MRV/MRS to work properly, so this could be related. Make sure you login to tivo.com and enable TTG functionality such that system information screen has A,A,A for TiVoToGo. If that's still I,I,I that could be your problem.
Twice, and reconnecting to the TiVo center as well.
I wonder if it has something to do with the fact that I activated the XL4 on the multi-service discount plan.
When I log into tivo.com, I was allowed to transfer season passes to the XL4, but when I click on my account it says "We're still processing your activation. Try again in 24 hours." When I click on find shows, it still defaults to the old Premiere and doesn't show the XL4 in the drop down menu.
Uh oh. I have the same situation and I have an existing Premiere. I have an XL4 coming tomorrow and the TA and cable card the next day and the mini on Friday. I hope I don't have this problem.
Is your XL4 getting channels?
It's likely the XL4 hasn't made a VCM connection yet, which is different than a service connection. It does take a new box awhile to show up, Why not give it the 24 hours it's asking for?
Yea the XL4 was getting channels. Had it up and running fairly quickly. Took Comcast an hour to send the refresh signal. (If you have Comcast, Google their CableCard activation number to save time. Don't call their general number.)
At any rate all is working now. I unplugged the XL4 and Mini, plugged the XL4 back in after a few minutes, then plugged the Mini back in after 15 or so minutes. Not sure if that did it or if the TiVo system just updated (it still says processing activation under the my accounts).
I was able to see it on my iPad with my Stream, so maybe just the Mini needed rebooting. I'm guessing I didn't leave it unplugged long enough to clear the memory the first time I rebooted.
I'm impressed with the picture quality and responsiveness of it. Even switching channels manually is not as bad as I had read before. I was looking through the network status section and saw my MoCA status had transmit and receive rates of 240 and 245 Mbps. Is that actually how fast it's working? I thought MoCA1.1 was limited to around 170?
The Best Buy in the DFW area has a few on the shelf. I just picked up 2.
First of all my setup:
Tivo XL4 with a tuning adapter hardwired into a switch which is hardwired into a router. One tuner configured to use the Tivo mini (and yes, that tuner is dedicated to the Tivo mini live TV and cannot be used by the XL4 at all. You do NOT need to allocate a tuner to the Tivo mini if you don't want to watch live TV on it)
Tivo HD connected to the router wirelessly
Tivo Mini hardwired into a switch which is hardwired into a router
I hooked up the Tivo mini. It's boot time was almost as long as the XL4's, which is amazing. Only Tivo engineers can manage to have something boot that slow off a chip. Guess they are having it calculate pi to the 10,000th digit as it boots.
Went through a guided setup similar to the XL4s but minus the ZIP code and cable company configuration. At the end of the setup, it was loading guide data, which took forever and made no sense since it's using the guide data off the XL4 from what I can tell (keep reading and that'll make sense to you).
Set up my remote to control the TV, named the Tivo mini and all that other fun little stuff.
Main menu claimed my XL4 could no longer be found. I unplugged the network cable and plugged in another straight from the router (so bypassing the switch). I get a message that I no longer have internet connectivity and it didn't go away even after I plugged in the network cable again. Found a place to have it test my connection. It went through the test and then hung at the last step "Disconnecting."
Found that somewhere along the lines I lost live TV on my XL4, everything else on it still worked. Could be an odd coincidence, but I'm guessing the Tivo Mini somehow jacked that up.
Rebooted the XL4. Power cycled the Tivo Mini (still hung at "Disconnecting).
All worked well, I could watch live TV and recorded shows, forward, rewind, everything with no apparent lag.
I wanted to post my experience on the forums and while I looked for a good place to do so, I found someone asking if the Tivo Mini played video off the USB port. Just for kicks I copied .AVI, .WMV, .MP4, .MPG and also a .JPG picture to a USB stick and plugged it into the Tivo mini. I got an error that the Tivo Mini does not support storage expansion and saw no way to browse or play the files off the USB stick (I checked under Photos as well to see if maybe you could show .JPG pictures, but no option for the USB stick there either).
Tivo Mini now gave me the error that it could not find the XL4, yet I was still able to watch live TV (but not recordings). When I tried to use the guide, it just gave me an error that it couldn't find the XL4 (which leads me to believe that it's using the XL4's guide, not it's own to where loading data when it connects should not be taking as long as it does).
I removed the USB stick, rebooted the Tivo Mini and no more error. Tried several channels of LiveTV, then noticed that I didn't have the switched channels.
Checked the XL4, sure enough, no switched channels. Rebooted tuning adapter (guess I should have done that when I rebooted the XL4 earlier, but tuning adapter reboots can be such a pain).
Tivo Mini gave an error that the XL4 was doing something using all it's tuners (makes sense for a tuning adapter reboot). Then I was back to it not being able to find the XL4 (UGH!!!). Rebooted the Tivo Mini, all seems well.
I tried some switched channels, apps and Live365 streaming radio off the mini without issues.
I have the suggestion banner on the top enabled on my XL4. I don't see an option to disable that on the Tivo Mini, so it must take over the setting from the XL4 for that. Since the Tivo Mini doesn't come with Netflix, I wondered what would happen if I tried to go into one of the suggestions it listed from Netflix. Want to guess?
If you guess that Tivo Mini no longer found the XL4 and required a reboot, you are a winner!
BTW, it can only Stream of the XL4. It sees my Tivo HD, but won't let me browse it or anything.
I'll use it some more and will let you guys know if I find out anything else, so far the losing connectivity to the XL4 when anything unusual happens and me having to reboot the Tivo mini seems to be the only major issue.
I guess you just have to watch what you select until they fix their bugs (I guess they had some lame beta testers for me to get the error as many times as I did and they didn't catch it in beta)...
03/13/2013 Update:
On subsequent service connections, I noticed that loading the guide data is much faster.
The mini downloaded and installed a service update last night. No message detailing the changes like there usually is on the regular Tivo boxes, I just know because I noticed that there was a pending restart and when I manually restarted, it applied the update.
Even after the update, the Mini intermittently kept giving me errors that it lost connection to the XL4 despite Live TV working fine. I tried static IP addresses for both which made no difference. I suspect that that rather than using the IP address to contact the XL4 directly, Tivo must use something broadcast-based for the heartbeat and maybe that's not always making it through my two switch/router setup.
This morning I changed over to a secure MoCA connection (I do not currently have a POE filter hooked up). During the setup, at first the Mini was acting as if it wasn't seeing the XL4. Then it saw the XL4, but claimed there was an issue connecting to the Tivo service. As before, a reboot fixed 'er up and I was able to use Live TV, Stream shows, use Live365, look at shows on the suggestion banner etc. My advice is definitely if you make any changes to the Mini configuration whatsoever, reboot it.
03/14/2013 Update:
Since switching over to MoCA, I've not received any more lost connection errors or other issues, so I guess I'll keep using encrypted MoCA rather than ethernet. Seems to work fine without a POE filter and I'm probably not going to install one since I don't need a performance boost and am worried that it could interfere with cable company communications (i.e. the tuning adapter communicating back to Time Warner to get a stream), so I'll go with "if it ain't broke, don't fix it." Since I'm using encrypted MoCA, I don't have to worry about the MoCA signal making it to my neighbors and them streaming off my Tivo... ;-)
After than statement, I'm sure someone will tell me that there is a way to crack MoCA encryption, but based on what I'm using MoCA for and that there aren't many MoCA devices out there to where probably nobody else in a mile radius has one, I'm not too worried...
I hope my experiences above prove useful to somone and that either everything works for you right after you hook up the Tivo Mini or that you get any issues squared away quickly so you can enjoy your Tivo Mini. Good luck everyone!
This will be the final update unless I run into any major issues that just haven't manifested themselves yet.
Well, I'll be going through this Friday. Looks like a bunch of reboots and hope you did it in the right order!
I think you can only stream from other Premieres.
Thank you for the above
Does the HD support streaming.
No it does not. You can only stream from Premiere models. You can't use a TiVoHD with a Mini. You can only use series 4 boxes with a Mini and you have to have at least a four tuner Premiere to even setup a Mini. But once setup you can stream from a two tuner Premiere.
You are correct, per Tivo the HD does not support streaming. I merely included this info because a lot of times when a company claims something won't work, it still might, they just don't support it.
I figured someone might find the actual confirmation that it won't work useful.
Streaming didn't even exist on the Premiere units until an update last year. The S3 and TiVo HD units have not received a software update in almost 3 years. The S3/HD units are end of life. They will never get another update. So if you're unhappy with the functionality they provide your only option is to upgrade to a Premiere.
That is enough for me to skip the mini. I really don't like the idea of losing my 4th tuner to have a mini that rarely gets used.
You don't have to - just allocate 0 tuners to the Mini and problem solved.
Tell it not to assign the tuner then. One shortcut Ben mentioned on this week's Engadget HD podcast is if you have an iPad or any of the TiVos app you can browse the guide via that. Then select what you want to watch so it starts a recording. You will be able to select that and watch that via the Mini.
I believe you can also do the same thing by browsing the Guide from the Mini.
This way you don't lose a tuner, but you have to start recording whatever live show you want to watch.

Re: Jaguars radio guy fawning over the Ravens
Re: Jaguars radio guy fawning over the Ravens
Jags under Weaver started out well with Coughlin being both the original GM and Head Coach. Made it to the AFC Championship game in their 2nd year. With the performance, the locals figured the NFL was no more difficult than the SEC and the Jags should be 14-2 every year without any problems. After a couple more years Coughlin's hard ass routine tore the heart and soul of the the team - exit Coughlin and enter delRio. Jack got a mini renaissance for a couple of years of competitive football and then the continued poor drafts by the front office headed the team to the port-a-pot. The near 500 year delRio posted in 2011 had to have been a amazing job of coaching, since the same core group of players did their 2-14 season in 2012.
I too felt Baltimore was robbed during the expansion dog & pony games, that being said, I am glad the Mr. Model and the hand of reason decided to move the Browns to become the Ravens. The Ravens front office has had a steady hand on the helm and continues to plot winning courses - and it isn't done with smoke and mirrors - just hard nosed football.

Re: Jaguars radio guy fawning over the Ravens
The black-out rule is archaic and stupid. If they really wanted to make it stick, they should have it determined by turnstile attendance as a percentage of capacity (like requiring XX% by kick-off, or they switch to another game). But preferably it should be removed altogether. That way, owners could make their stadiums as big as they wanted, and not have to worry about the games being blocked out. Isn't it a bit odd that there are several college stadiums over 100,000, but no pro stadiums except for Jerryworld?

Jax is doo-doo, I live 85 miles south, and the locals think Gabbert is the answer. Sorry but Gabbert will ruin Blackmon, quicker than Boller ruined Heap.

Brown And Voges Guide Notts Home
Australian batsman Adam Voges continued his excellent start to the season with a fourth successive LV County Championship fifty to help Nottinghamshire defeat Somerset by six wickets.
Voges hit 10 fours in an unbeaten 73 to add to his first innings 63, and got Notts across the line alongside Ali Brown who scored 63 in each innings.
The result propelled Nottinghamshire to the top of Division One ahead of a four-week break in the competition.
"Adam has played very well in all of our LV County Championship matches and he's put in a match-winning performance for us today," said Notts Director of Cricket Mick Newell.
"We always believed when we re-signed him that he'd contribute more to the four day side in his second season with us and he has helped us make a fantastic start."
Voges and Brown shared a fifth-wicket partnership of 124 after Samit Patel fell lbw to Charl Willoughby. Voges, left out of Australia's squad for next month's ICC World Twenty20, hit consecutive fours to reach his fifty and Brown hit a six to secure the win.
Brown had been dropped by Willoughy after offering him a relatively simple return catch and benefited from a run out attempt by scoring five overthrows.

The new model, tentatively dubbed "Cajun," will be produced alongside the Cayenne and the Panamera. The decision by the company's supervisory board paves the way for over 1,000 new jobs to be created at the plant as well as at its headquarters in Stuttgart, with the addition of a 1.54 square-mile expansion of the Leipzig, Germany, plant to begin later this year. Details in the press blast after the jump.
[Source: Porsche]
* Supervisory board decides on production site for new model
* Leipzig factory in Germany scheduled for a substantial expansion
* At least 1,000 new jobs to be created in Leipzig and Stuttgart
The decision about the production site for the newest model in the Porsche range has been taken.
The new vehicle with the project designation 'Cajun' will be manufactured at the Porsche factory in Leipzig, in the Saxony region of Germany. This was decided by the supervisory board. The monitoring body authorised the board of management to finalise plans for the plant to become a fully-fledged production site for the 'Cajun', including body assembly line and paint shop.
Within the context of the 'Cajun' production, at least one thousand new jobs are to be created in Leipzig, and additional new jobs at Porsche in Zuffenhausen and Weissach. Subject to approval by the authorities, construction work at the 400 hectare (1.54 square miles) site is scheduled to begin in 2011.
"During the production of the Cayenne and the Panamera, our Leipzig plant has impressively proved that it can produce premium vehicles of highest quality," said Matthias Müller, chairman of the Porsche AG board of management. "The decision in favour of this location is proof of our trust in the skills and qualifications of our Leipzig associates, and at the same time another contribution to the economic advancement of the region."
Uwe Hück, chairman of the group works council, said: "We had tough but fair negotiations. The employees' representatives have always been convinced that it is worthwhile to make the 'Cajun' at our Saxony plant. At the end of the day, the high flexibility and productivity of our colleagues has convinced the management board and the supervisory board to produce the 'Cajun' in Leipzig. We are therefore very happy that the supervisory board authorised the board of management to plan the expansion of the Leipzig plant and turn it into a fully-fledged factory. The production of the Cajun is a very good sign for Leipzig. However, we cannot rest now but have to start talks about a further expansion of the Zuffenhausen plant in order to adapt our parent plant to future growth, too."
Burkhard Jung, mayor of the city of Leipzig, said: "The decision of the Porsche AG proves yet again that Leipzig with its professional city administration is an attractive, cosmopolitan city and, therefore, an international business site with a future."
With the efficient and agile 'Cajun', Porsche extends its SUV segment which is in high demand all over the world. In addition to the new generation of the Cayenne which has clearly managed to strengthen its market position as one of the most successful sporting all-wheel drive vehicles in the premium segment, the lightweight and refined handling 'Cajun' - so typical of a Porsche - will create further momentum. As a desirable entry modeI, it is expected to pave the way for new, younger customers to enter the world of Porsche, in addition to the Boxster, the market leader among two-seat mid-engined sports cars.
Since its inauguration in 2002, the highly modern Leipzig plant in Saxony, Germany, has been producing the Cayenne. After its first expansion, the four-seater Panamera Gran Turismo has been built there since 2009, which is produced in a model mix with the Cayenne. To date, Porsche has invested around 280 million euro in Leipzig.

His broad shoulders and massive wingspan, tapering to a slim waist and short legs make him perfectly streamlined for the pool.
He proved it in Beijing with a record-breaking week-long medal binge that eclipsed Mark Spitz's achievement 36 years earlier in Munich.
Despite his gargantuan workload, Phelps always did just enough. His seventh gold, in the 100m butterfly, saw him pip Milorad Cavic by the narrowest margin. The Serbian touched the wall first, but Phelps did so more forcefully, triggering a victory by just 0.01 seconds.
The American's crowning glory came in the 4x100m medley relay, in which he set the fastest butterfly split of all time in the third leg, and Jason Lezak held on to secure Phelps a permanent place in Olympic legend.
It may have lacked the explosiveness of Usain Bolt, the artistry of Nadia Comaneci or the significance of Jesse Owens, but for sustained brilliance, Phelps's achievement surpassed them all.

After two decades of basketball stardom in Indiana, Reggie Miller is about to play in Utah.
A new documentary, Winning Time: Reggie Miller vs. The New York Knicks, will premiere Sunday at the Sundance Film Festival in Park City.
The movie is a treat for Reggie lovers who will delight in the three-point daggers he thrust into the New York Knicks.
But it is a bigger treat for Reggie haters who will remember all the reasons (the trash-talking, the throat/crotch grab he gave to Spike Lee) why Miller was Enemy No. 1 at Madison Square Garden. (Photo by Paul Bereswill, Newsday/AP)
The film will have its television premier as part of ESPN's 30 for 30 series (March 14, 9 p.m. ET).
From Patrick Ewing to Larry Brown (Miller calls him a "perfectionist in an imperfect game) to antagonist John Starks to Marv Albert, director Dan Klores gets everyone talking after the fact and even gets the Knicks to laugh about their former foe.
While Miller is the star of the show, his co-star is famed director Lee who had courtside seats and provided his own drama.
Cheryl Miller calls her brother "that bad itch you can't get to" and NBA analyst Mark Jackson, a then Pacers guard, talks about jacking up Miller to play the Knicks.
Jackson compares himself to Bundini Brown. "I had Ali and I was in his ear."

As everyone is now aware, Britain is by far the most cunning and malevolent of all Iran's enemies. And also one of the most enduring. In explaining Ayatollah Khamanei's remarks the other week, most news outlets drew attention to the UK's role in the toppling of the Mossadeq government in 1953. But that was just one incident among many. There was, for example, a short war in 1856, occasioned partly by what the British saw as Persian meddling in Afghanistan and partly by a diplomatic incident involving the British ambassador in Tehran, whose name was Murray. Murray employed the services of a local man. The prime minister, Sadr Azim, objected - and, when Murray refused to dismiss the man, accused the diplomat of having improper relations with his employee's wife. The truth or otherwise of this allegation I have been unable to establish. But it scarcely matters; after the usual diplomatic protests, the British prime minister Lord Palmerston sent a gunboat and the Iranians were swiftly defeated and forced to back down. Those were the days.
The following year, Sadr Azim sent Palmerston a flowery letter, protesting that he had always valued and promoted friendship with Britain. This drew forth a marvellous riposte:
...So far from your Excellency having been alone in endeavours to preserve friendship between the two governments, your Excellency was the main and principal cause of the cessation of that friendship. I have no doubt that your Excellency, in seeking a quarrel with England, believed that you were promoting the interests of Persia, and I am bound to suppose that your Excellency considered yourself as performing on that occasion the part of a true patriot; and this belief on my part strengthens my confidence in the future maintenance of friendship between the two governments and the two countries, because the events of the war, and the decisive victories obtained by the British troops over superior numbers of Persian troops, must have shown and proved to the sagacious mind and powerful understanding of your Excellency that the true interests of Persia are best promoted by peace and friendship with England, and that the sure results to Persia of war with England would be defeat and disaster.
With every wish for the health and happiness of your Excellency, and with a fervant hope that the reign of your illustrious master the Shah may be long and prosperous, I have the honour to remain your Excellency's most obedient and faithful servant,
Compare and contrast the impotence, ineffectiveness and desultory prose David Miliband's response to Iran's arrest of today's British embassy employees in Tehran.

LINCOLN WEDDING IN APRILApril, 2008 in Lincoln
"Our wedding was perfect. We used Cakes by Season for our wedding cake. People are still commenting on how great it was! Our DJ was the best I've ever seen. He truly exceeded our expectations. He was fun and played great music. He kept people on the dance floor without pressuring anyone. Windsor Stables was the perfect location for the dinner and dance. It is not ideal for a large crowd, but we had about 200 people and it was just right. Not too cramped, but definetally full! The food was to die for. It was so delicious! We flew off to Mexico for our honeymoon. We stayed at the Barcelo Resort, 5 star place, but the beds were horrific. Enough to make me never want to stay there again, but the Riviera Maya is gorgeous!"

"Chad and Gina are a couple that we met at a Bridal Show. I am so grateful we bumped into them. They made our wedding day stress free and we have some absolutley stunning pictures that they captured. I didn't have to give them a list of what I wanted, they already knew. They took time before the wedding to learn the names of our wedding party and family so on the day of they knew everyones names. They are putting a lot of work into our final album to make sure it's perfect and just what we wanted. You will NOT be disapointed if you choose to hire them. They are absolutley worth every penny!!"

You can only return up to a certain amount with a Drivers Licens a year if you don't have the receipt. I know we didn't get gift receipts for a lot of stuff we got. People don't always buy off your registry and in our case the registry didn't always show it was bough so we got multiple items of something. They are very hard to work with."

Re: INDEFINITE INTEGRALS
Hi Jerry,
whats wron with ArcTan[x/Sqrt[a]]/Sqrt[a] it is the correct result.
The Log[-1+x]-Log[1+x] is simply a expanded version from the relation
ArcTan[x]==I Log[(1-I x)/(1+I x)]/x

Judy Huddleston
Love Him Madly: An Intimate Memoir of Jim Morrison
Published by Chicago Review Press
Jun 20, 2013 Web Exclusive
In the late '60s, fresh out of high school, Los Angeles teenager Judy Huddleston began an on-again-off-again love affair with The Doors' Jim Morrison. In Love Him Madly, culled partly from her diaries of the time, Huddleston documents her wild youth with Morrison. Huddleston's book is engrossing, despite being written in the confused, idealistic love-addled prose of an obsessed teen. The subject matter is not much better, as Huddleston paints a picture of her teen self that seems to justify every negative stereotype. She pants after a Morrison who shows little real affection, for no valid reason that is made known, and despite being mistreated by the singer. When Huddleston describes being raped early on in the text, one is severely tempted to put the book down. Huddleston's time with Morrison is primarily sexual, although juicy descriptions are largely (and thankfully) withheld. Morrison abuses drugs and alcohol (as does Huddleston), and he is gone for days or months at a time, always calling Huddleston sooner or later, in the middle of the night, for a rendezvous. Huddleston, predictably, jumps at every chance and then wonders why things aren't working out to her satisfaction. This pattern repeats itself numerous times in the text.
Where Love Him Madly does find some redemption is in its portrayal of Morrison as a silly teenager (perhaps as much so as Huddleston herself). He's prone to whims. He pontificates. He's sullen. He takes pictures with fans on the street. Despite all the despicable qualities Huddleston relates, and though neither of the book's subjects are portrayed in a particularly likeable light, seeing Morrison so child-like (and childish) is interesting to read and contrary to every idealized version of the man.

Big Heroin Bust In Onondaga County
Onondaga County Sheriff Kevin E. Walsh this morning reported that members of the High Intensity Drug Trafficking Area Task Force made several arrests and confiscated a large amount of Heroin, US Currency, and several firearms.
As part of an High Intensity Drug Trafficking Area Task Force Initiative, members of the Onondaga County Sheriff's Office Special Investigations Unit in conjunction with agents from the DEA, and narcotics enforcement officers from the Syracuse Police, United States Border Patrol, Homeland Security, New York State Police, and the Onondaga County District Attorney's Office, concluded a several month investigation into a major heroin trafficking organization in the City of Syracuse and Onondaga County.
Several search warrants were executed in the City of Syracuse and the Town of Clay that resulted in the recovery of over 20 ounces of heroin packaged in over 18,000 individual packets, $10,000 in cash, and 3 illegal handguns. In all, 14 defendants were arrested for felony gun and drug charges and are currently incarcerated at the Justice Center. The heroin recovered had a street value of approximately $200,000.
DEA Special Agent in Charge Brian R. Crowell stated, "There has been a 106% increase in the number of people dependent on heroin within the last year, and our primary focus is to bring justice to those responsible for distributing this poison. This organization epitomizes the flow of heroin from New York City suppliers to druggangs throughout the Northeast sending heroin in individually packaged bundles for a quick sale throughout our communities. The DEA and our law enforcement partners will never tolerate the consequences of heroin distribution and use-addiction, increased crime, violence, health care costs, and overdose deaths. I commend the men and woman from the NYSP, Syracuse Police Department, Onondaga County Sheriff's Office, and the DEA Task Force who worked tirelessly to make our communities safer from these heroin traffickers."

Michael Sheen finds career in real people roles
By Michelle Nichols
NEW YORK (Reuters) - Actor Michael Sheen has played former British Prime Minister Tony Blair twice -- in "The Deal" and "The Queen" -- but he described his latest film role portraying television host Sir David Frost as liberating.
The film, "Frost/Nixon," is about Frost's 1977 interview with former U.S. President Richard Nixon, three years after Nixon was forced to resign over the Watergate scandal. The interview gripped viewers around the world as Nixon admitted for the first time he made mistakes and had let the American people down.
Director Ron Howard's film is based on Peter Morgan's Tony Award-winning play of the same name and stars Sheen and Frank Langella, as Nixon, in the roles they played on stage in London and New York.
Sheen spoke about playing Frost in the film which debuts in major U.S. cities on Friday and nationally and globally in the coming months.
Q: What was it like to play the character of David Frost for the movie after performing the role on stage?
A: "It was kind of liberating I suppose to do it in front of a camera after about 16 months altogether of doing it on stage.
"After doing it for that long you build up such depth, if you are lucky. We were very fortunate, me and Frank, in the production that we both kept each other honest, in a way, on stage in that we both bounced off each other and both kept each other in it, rather than it becoming a little stale as it can over a long period of time.
"Being able to go from (the play) to the (the film) was quite a challenge but having a new cast helped." Continued...

It doesn't get the same attention as Kansas City's quest to become a mecca for the life sciences or our push to be America's most entrepreneriurial city, but Kansas City's zeal to be the global center for animal health research is far further along than any of those efforts.

text: Yesterday, at about this time, I flawlessly installed 5 CDs containining a week old distro of Fedora Core 3.9, aka Fedora Core 4 test 3. Having installed Red Hat from 7.1 to 9 and Fedora 1, 2, 3, I thought the install was flawless until I tried to use Redhat Package Manager, up2date and then yum to update the many changes that occur in development in a week and a half's time. RPM up2date hung on the second panel, yum could get to extras but not to the development rpm repo at redhat or its mirrors. I being a user of some experience and a supporter of Fedora could see a potential enterprise user or newbie becoming real distressed. If Fedora Core 4 is released without better update resource managers, then we will not obtain the kudos that I believe F4 deserves. After 2 hours of frustration I began downloading single pkg updates, each time muttering, where's pup? Today, in a more refreshed mood, I looked at my dog Spot, who gleefully chases snakes, but had been unable to help, yesterday. The problem? A missing python library effecting both up2date and yum. Spot's to old to obtain a pup, but I am not. The need for a reliable "pup" may not become a part of Fedora 4 (due to devlp. time), but the need is sufficient enough to not have it relegated to extras. Many good ideas on the forum. Need core developer leadership on this one. Cheers to what I believe may be the best Fedora distro, yet.

Brief Synopsis
A Scotland Yard inspector struggles to get through a typical day on the job.
At the home of George Gideon, a chief inspector at Scotland Yard, Gideon is promising his wife Kate that he will bring home a fresh salmon for her dinner party when he receives a phone call from Herbert "Birdie" Sparrow, one of his informants. In a hurry to reach the Yard before meeting with Birdie, Gideon runs a red light and is pulled over by Simon Farnaby-Green, an earnest young police constable. To Gideon's annoyance, Simon disregards the inspector's rank and sternly issues him a ticket. After Gideon drives his eighteen-year-old daughter Sally to school, Sally realizes that she has forgotten to give him a ticket to her concert recital that night and asks Simon, who has followed them to school, to deliver it to Gideon at Scotland Yard. Upon reaching the Yard, Gideon irritably summons Sgt. Eric Kirby into his office and suspends him for accepting bribes. Gideon then goes to meet Birdie at the church in which he works as a caretaker. Before Gideon arrives, the church's vicar, Rev. Julian Small, is derided as a "sissy" by a group of street urchins. Gideon hopes to obtain more information about Kirby's bribes from Birdie, but their conversation is cut short when the inspector is called away to investigate a payroll robbery. At the scene of the robbery, the police find a tire track belonging to the thieves's car. Gideon then goes to question Kirby's wife at the lavish apartment she shares with her husband. Mrs. Kirby becomes agitated when Gideon suggests that the couple's elaborate furnishings have been purchased with her husband's ill-gotten gains and orders the inspector to leave. As Gideon walks down the corridor outside the apartment, a police officer arrives with the news that Kirby has been run down by a car and killed. When Gideon relays the message to Mrs. Kirby, she breaks down in tears. Soon after, Scotland Yard is alerted that a psychopathic killer is on his way to London from Manchester. Upon reaching London, the killer, Arthur Sayer, visits his niece, Rosie Saparelli. When Rosie leaves the flat to run an errand, Arthur sneaks up the stairs and murders her daughter Dolly. After exiting the house, Arthur drops his Manchester newspaper on the sidewalk. The paper is picked up by Simon, who follows Arthur to the washroom of a theater where the agitated killer declares he was driven to commit the murder. Later, at Scotland Yard, Simon is brought to Gideon because the young constable has been credited with cracking the case. Gideon initially does not recognize Simon, but when he finally does, instead of praising him, Gideon upbraids him for the traffic citation, causing the flustered Simon to forget to deliver the concert ticket. After Simon leaves, word comes that the tire tracks from the payroll robbery match those of the car that ran down Kirby. Soon after, Mrs. Kirby comes to Scotland Yard and tearfully admits that her husband had been associating with "shady characters." Gideon then shows Mrs. Kirby a woman's photograph they found in Kirby's locker, and she identifies the woman as her husband's consort. Meanwhile, Birdie is being pursued by two thugs who suspect him of being a police informant. While taking a break at a pub, Gideon is accosted by Birdie's drunken wife, who warns that her husband is in danger and begs the inspector to lock him up for his own protection. The thugs follow Birdie to the church, and when they begin to menace him, Rev. Small, a former war hero, overpowers them, thus earning the respect of the watching street urchins. After the woman in Kirby's photo is identified as Joanna Delafield, Gideon goes to question her, but she denies knowing Kirby. Gideon then brusquely informs her that Kirby has been murdered and leaves. Gideon next goes to interview Walker, the payroll master who was robbed. When he is shown Joanna's photo, Walker recognizes her as a recently hired employee. After an investigation into Joanna's criminal record reveals that she has been involved in several other payroll robberies, Gideon goes to her apartment to arrest her, but is met by Joanna's gun-wielding husband Paul, who claims that the robberies were justified because the money allowed him to pursue his true talent as an artist. Handing the gun to Joanna, Paul instructs her to watch Gideon while he finishes packing. While Paul flees out the back door, Gideon tells Joanna that she will hang for Kirby's murder, prompting her to lower her weapon is horror. At the end of the day, Gideon is about to go home when a call comes in about a break-in at the exclusive St. James Safe Deposit. Fitzhubert, a young aristocrat with a penchant for crime, and several of his confederates were about to break into the safe when a dowager stopped by to deposit her jewels. The dowager notified the police, who now arrive to cordon off the area. Using a bullhorn, an officer beseeches the criminals to come out peacefully, but Fitzhubert runs out firing his gun and is apprehended by Gideon. Gideon, bearing his salmon, returns home long after both dinner and Sally's concert have ended. Sally then arrives, accompanied by Simon, who used Gideon's ticket to attend the concert. Just then, Scotland Yard phones to inform Gideon that Paul has been traced to the London airport. Simon offers to drive Gideon there in his old jalopy, but along the way is stopped for a traffic violation. When Simon protests that the ticket should be forgiven because he was driving the chief inspector on an important mission, Gideon smiles.

David delicately slices off the choicest pieces, wiping his razor-sharp knife between cuts. He gently arranges the slices on a fluffy bed of parsley.
He knows that the pork will be judged on appearance, among other qualities, so he is looking for those pieces with a pronounced smoke ring, a tell-tale sign of good barbeque.
Taste and tenderness are the two additional judging criteria, each weighted more heavily in scoring. So as David cut his slices, he's also looking for the section of the meat that is most tender and more flavorful.
Many competitive cooks refer to this to as the "money muscle."
According to Scott Nelson of Swine Assassins from Mason City, cooks must quickly decide which parts of the pork will yield the highest marks from judges.
"My money muscle is on the back, on the other side of the bone," he explains. "It's medallion size, about two inches in diameter, sometimes smaller."
"1:03," warns Melissa. David does not seem rushed. He continues at the same careful pace, arranging the contents of the box, making it look perfect.
Just before the clock turns to 1:04, the box is sealed shut and wrapped in an ordinary white kitchen towel to keep it warm.
It takes Melissa less than one minute to walk from the Pork County BBQ trailer to the turn-in table at the Judges Tent. (She did a timed practice run the night before.)
Melissa is steady and calm but wastes no time as she walks up the street holding a box of meat cooked with smoke. She delivers the pork to the judging area with plenty of time to spare — at least 30 seconds under the wire.With his "runner" safely off, David turns his attention to the final meat, brisket, just off the smoker. He only has 20 minutes to decide which portion of this cut to put in front of the judges. The clock is ticking.
