This recipe was tucked away in one of my mom's old files! I'm not a big asparagus fan, but others in my family have enjoyed this for decades!
Top Review by Rita1652
Well my DH did it to me again! Eating my cooking ingredients before they get into the recipes I plan to make. I had to sub the cashews because someone ate them! I used walnuts! This was good and very easy! I didn`t cook the aspasragus that long, we like it crisp and tender. Thanks!

I had the privilege of helping a customer who was using Data Rescue PC 3 for the first time as most users, to recover data from his failed pogo plug drive. I did not know what a Pogo Plug drive was, but after I looked it up, I found out that it takes a regular hard drive and makes it accessible over the internet to share data like cloud storage. He had seen what were early signs of hard drive failure when a colleague of his was loading data on to the drive and took a long time to do so. He thought it was because of a slow internet connection. Then when he got to his house he was trying to connect to the drive and could not.
Data Rescue PC 3 to the Rescue
He called Pogo Plug and they told him about Prosoft's data recovery software-Data Rescue PC 3. I helped him clone the drive first as the drive was getting slow reads and drive failure warnings on the scan. After the clone finished he scanned the drive and then saw the scan results. He had found a lot of data. The drive was a 1Tb drive with 400Gb of data on it. He was happy with the results and called me back to tell me that he was able to successfully recover his files.

Electrical Project on Static Converter
Static Converter is a good electrical project which tells about the static converter in Railways. The static converter is made using a half controlled single phase bridge rectifier at the input, a DC link filter and a three phase IGBT based PWM inverter. All functions of the converter are controlled through 32 bits Digital signal processor (DSP) together with an EPLD & host of digital gates and analog amplifiers. You can also Subscribe to FINAL YEAR PROJECT'S by Email for more such Projects and Seminar.
All trains are provided with a battery to provide start up current and for supplying essential circuits, such as emergency lighting, when the line supply fails. The battery is usually connected across the DC control supply circuit.
Recommended Project: Project on Solar Automatic Panel
Generic term for any solid state electronic system for converting alternating current to direct current or vice versa. Where an AC supply has to be converted to DC it is called a rectifier and where DC is converted to AC it is called an inverter. The word originated in the US but is now common elsewhere.
The converter consists of following sub-modules:
A. Input Section
The input section consists of input fuse (MF), Metal oxide varistors and input bus bar. Input fuse is used to protect the converter and for ensuring safe operation of the converter under worst input conditions. Metal oxide varistors (MOV) are used to protect the converter from surges.
B. Rectifier Section
The rectifier section is made using a half controlled single phase bridge rectifier. This consists of a half controlled bridge rectifier, made up of 2 thyristors and 2 diodes.
When the input AC voltage is positive, one of the thyristors is fired with a predetermined delay. It starts conducting and the voltage of the DC link rises. There is lot more information on the report, so do check it out and use this report only for your reference. Thanks to below authors.

During 1991-92, clarinetist Eddie Daniels and vibraphonist Gary Burton teamed up on a tour, performing a tribute to Benny Goodman and Lionel Hampton. Never mind that they sound nothing at all like their predecessors. On the CD that resulted from the collaboration, the duo use pianist Mulgrew Miller (who sounds much more like McCoy Tyner than Teddy Wilson), bassist Marc Johnson and drummer Peter Erskine for 11 songs associated with the King of Swing plus Bix Beiderbecke's "In a Mist."

School Cafeteria Peanut Butter Bars
Recipe by Julesong
Remember those flat peanut butter bars you used to get in your school cafeteria lunches? Well, here they are!
Top Review by KitchenCraftsnMore
Yum! I like these so much, I had to write in and tell everyone about a variation I just made that turned out really nicely. Add 1/2 cup chopped peanuts to the batter. Pour a regular size bag of semisweet chocolate chips over the top of the bars as soon as they come out of the oven. After a few minutes to allow for melting, evenly spread the chocolate over top. (This makes a very fast and easy frosting). Top with about a tablespoon more finely chopped peanuts. Everyone loved these, and I'm sure you will too!

Ingredients Nutrition
- 2 cups flour
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1⁄4 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup butter
- 3⁄4 cup peanut butter (such as Jif or Skippy smooth or chunky, your choice, and NOT reduced fat, "natural peanut butter" no)
- 1⁄2 cup granulated sugar
- 1⁄2 cup packed dark brown sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 egg
- 2 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips (optional)
- 1 cup milk chocolate chips (optional)
Directions See How It's Made
- Combine flour, baking soda, and salt and set aside.
- Cream together the butter, peanut butter, granulated sugar, brown sugar, and vanilla in a large bowl.
- Beat in egg.
- Gradually beat in flour mixture.
- (If you'd like, you can add 2 cups of semi-sweet chocolate chips to the mixture, but I know*my* school could never afford such luxuries as chocolate!) Spread batter into a 13x9x2 inch pan.
- Bake at 375F for 15 to 18 minutes.
- (If you'd like to go the extra mile past what your school could probably afford to make for your lunches, you can take 1 cup of milk chocolate chips and put them on the surface of the peanut butter bars just after you've removed them from the oven. The bar) Let the bars it cool in the pan on a rack then cut into bars.
- Enjoy!
- Note: reduced fat peanut butter for this recipe is not recommended, as it might make the bars drier than you'd like.

Protect Your Collectibles
The things that you collect need to be protected to preserve their value. A signature on a baseball can become smudged if it is allowed to fall into the hands of a child or left in a humid room during the summer months. An authentic 1993 Jim Kelly jersey could become worn or stained if it is not properly framed. Therefore, it is important that your collectibles are put in a case or a frame to be preserved for generations to come.
Preserve The Memories Forever
There is no better feeling than catching a foul ball at a baseball game or catching a puck that flies into the stands at a hockey game. These moments are the moments that you will cherish forever. If you were at the game with your dad or brought your son or daughter to the game, it is a moment that you will both remember fondly. Having a case that you can put the ball or the puck in will ensure that it is never lost or ruined as time goes by.
Signatures Can Fade
An autographed football or a baseball signed by your favorite player isn't going to last forever. As time goes on, the ink will fade or smudge due to age and other factors. The best that you can do is to put it in a case that will protect it for as long as possible. When protected in a clear case and stored in a room that doesn't get a lot of sunlight, the autograph can look as good as new for decades.
You Can't Hang A Jersey
It isn't possible to hang a jersey that is not in a frame. It will get ripped or have a small hole in it from where you tried to tack it to the wall. When your friends come over to see it, they may want to touch it or take it off of the wall. That causes the jersey to become soiled and ruined as time goes by. To truly appreciate the jersey, it needs to be framed and hung where no one can do anything other than look at it.
Sports memorabilia is something that everything is after. This is because everyone wants to keep alive the memories of the stadium, the players and the game that they love. If you want to shop for a signed football or jersey, you can find whatever you want online in minutes.

WinExpose is a truly amazing (and free) application that brought to Windows what I consider to be one of Mac's best features: Expose. When the Windows application was started back in September of 2006, new builds were being released once or twice a week. There were even several times where multiple releases occurred on the same day.
Unfortunately, the day has come for this application to be discontinued. The developer, known as "matonga" in the forum, announced that he lacks the time that it takes to continue improving WinExpose on a regular basis. For that reason he will not be adding any new features or releasing any versions in the future.
I am very disappointed that he can't continue to develop this application because I found it to be really great. He is a very upstanding guy and I am happy that he is at least turning over the source code with the hope that someone else will take the project under their wing to make it better.
There are other applications that add Expose-like features to Windows, but many of them you have to fork money out for like TopDesk, anthabounce, Reflex Vision, and Exposer for Windows. I haven't found many free alternatives other than iEx, which I think needs a lot more work than WinExpose.
It does what its supposed to, but if you enable the feature to include minimized windows it slows down a little too much if you have a lot of windows open. Not only that but every now and then it has a hard time taking the screenshots. For example, in the image above there is an application in the upper-left corner that just shows up as a black blob when in reality it is a Google Talk chat window. There is also the Windows Explorer window in the bottom-right corner where it couldn't take a screenshot of a small portion of the window so it returned a partially-black result.
I didn't expect the application to be perfect because it is free, but WinExpose was so close to being a truly amazing freeware program. I never really had troubles with it, so I will continue to use it in hopes that another programmer finds the application to be interesting and continues the development process. Thanks for all the hard work that you put into this "matonga"!
Thanks to "netster007x" for the tip!

Trail of tractors coming to Jackson
JACKSON -- Although Jackson's sesquicentennial celebration is more than a month away, folks in this southern Minnesota community are finding unique ways to celebrate their rural heritage all year long.
Such will be the case next Friday and Saturday, when the community serves as host to a caravan of antique and classic tractors -- 250 in all -- that will parade throughout the county in a two-day span encompassing a northern route and a southern route.
Sponsored by KICD radio of Spencer, Iowa, the tractor ride is in its seventh year. This is the first time, however, that the ride will take place all within one county's boundaries, according to KICD-FM program director Rhonda Wedeking.
The antique tractor ride camped overnight in Jackson two years ago, and the local residents enjoyed the visit so much, they asked KICD to bring the event back for the sesquicentennial, Wedeking said.
Registration begins at 12:30 p.m. Thursday at the Jackson County Fairgrounds, with the ride slated to begin at 7 a.m. Friday. The first day will take participants throughout the northern half of Jackson County, visiting the towns of Bergen, Heron Lake and Lakefield. That evening, at 5:30, an antique tractor pull will be conducted in front of the grandstand on the fairgrounds. While there is a fee to participate in the pull -- and some tractors taking part in the ride will be in the tractor pull -- the event is free and open to spectators.
Saturday's route will take tractor riders through Round Lake and Sioux Valley before returning to the Jackson County Fairgrounds.
All 250 slots for the ride were filled last September.
"We try to announce (the following year's destination) the first day of the Clay County Fair," said Wedeking. Ride participants consist mainly of tractor owners from Iowa, Minnesota and Nebraska, although some are coming from as far away as New York, Oregon, Arizona, Montana and Vermont.
Wedeking said the ride serves as kind of a reunion for some of the participants.
"They all get together and tell each other what they worked on during the last year," she said. "There's a lot of leaning on tires, telling stories."
For some, it's also a time to gather with the rest of their family.
There are dads and sons, brothers and entire families taking part this year. The Jones brothers -- four in all -- are among the expected participants. The men, in their 60s, will each drive a version of their family's favorite -- the Farmall. The quartet hails from communities in Arizona and Iowa.
The Taylor family -- including mom and dad, their son, daughter, son-in-law and granddaughter -- will all drive red tractors in the ride, as well.
As for the vintage of the tractors in this year's ride, Wedeking said they range from about the late 1940s through the early 1960s.
"Wayne Schneekloth (of Jackson) will drive his Minneapolis R with a factory cab," she said. "A 1943 -- it is a classic to say the least. It's one of the few cabs that will be on the ride."
Before anyone thinks all they will see are red tractors on this ride, Wedeking assures there will be plenty of different makes and models of tractors participating.
"There's every color imaginable," she said. "It's not just John Deere, it's not just International.
"Some of them have fancy paint jobs -- thousands of dollars in a paint job -- and we've got some (drivers) coming in their work clothes," Wedeking added.
When KICD sponsored its first ride seven years ago, the station had 75 people and their tractors in the lineup. The following year, the number of participants nearly doubled.
"After that, we put a limit of 200 riders on the ride and we still had a waiting list," Wedeking said. Last year, they increased it to 250 tractors, and there is about 50 guys on the waiting list for this year's event.
Spectators hoping to see the tractor ride are invited to park in any of the communities hosting the ride in Jackson County Friday or Saturday.
"The guys get a charge out of people parked at the end of the driveway and watching them go by," Wedeking added. "Most of these (tractors) are painted up pretty and they like showing them off."

Recent honours recipients celebrated in New York
This was published under the 2010 to 2015 Conservative and Liberal Democrat coalition government
On 8 April, British Consul General Danny Lopez hosted a reception for Kathryn Foster, Judy O'Rourke and Leila Straus at the British Residence in New York.
All three were recently honoured by Her Majesty The Queen for their services to Britain.
Kathryn Foster was made an Officer of the Order of the British Empire in the Queen's Birthday Honours in 2013 for her services to border security. She joined the UK civil service in 1986 and has worked for UK Visas and Immigration in many locations since, including Paris, Istanbul and Heathrow Airport.
"Kathryn was a major figure in the immigration team who helped to make the Olympic and Paralympic Games happen as smoothly and successfully as they did in 2012," said Consul General Lopez. "Her contributions to border security and customer service during one of Britain's proudest moments are unparalleled. She was awarded an OBE in recognition of her work on the Olympic programme, as well as her ongoing support for the charity Cancer Research UK over many years."
Judy O'Rourke is director of undergraduate studies at Syracuse University, New York. She was made an honorary Officer of the Order of the British Empire in a ceremony conducted by Her Majesty's Ambassador to the United States, Sir Peter Westmacott, earlier this year.
"Ever since the terrorist bombing of Pan Am Flight 103 in 1988, which killed 270 people, Judy has worked tirelessly to bring together the communities of Lockerbie and Syracuse both in remembrance and through hugely beneficial educational ties," said Consul General Lopez. "Shortly after the bombing, she created two scholarship programmes – the Lockerbie Scholars and the Remembrance Scholars – as a way to bring the two communities together in a positive way after all they had endured together. Since then, 50 students from Lockerbie Academy have studied at Syracuse and over 700 from Syracuse have served as Remembrance Scholars."
David Mundell, the Parliamentary Under-Secretary of State in the Scotland Office, said of Judy's award, "This honour could not be more deserved. Judy is a truly inspirational person who has been the driving force behind [Lockerbie's] relationship with Syracuse University, which many people in Lockerbie and the surrounding area consider to be the only good thing to have come from the 1988 Lockerbie Air Disaster."
Leila Straus was made a Member of the Order of the British Empire in the New Year Honours 2014 for services to philanthropy and the arts. She has been the chair of the American Associates of the National Theatre for a decade now, a period which has seen huge successes for the National Theatre in the US, including the Tony-winning commercial successes War Horse, The History Boys, and One Man, Two Guvnors.
"At times, Broadway can feel a little bit like Shaftesbury Avenue, and for that we have Leila to thank," said Consul General Lopez. "It would simply not be possible for the National Theatre to continue producing the quality of work it does without the philanthropic work of Leila and others like her. She has successfully expanded the work of the American Associates out of New York to Chicago, DC and California, and raised millions of dollars in the process."

Bangalore, July 29: Dashing Indian opener Virender Sehwag's penchant for high-octane batting sends dreaded reverberations through the opposition's attack. His belligerent approach to trifling with the opposition through a barrage of power-hits to the fence and over it, has broken the mould of the quintessential Test batsman's cautious and subdued temperament. These are the attributes that India will sorely miss when they take on England in the crucial second Test of their ongoing tour.
Viru's ultra-aggressive bent is aptly reflected in his phenomenal Test strike, which hovers around 81, while the rest of Indian line-up lags at the 40 to 60 range. Of the 87 Tests he has played, his knocks have contributed to 35 wins and in those matches, his strike rate has surged to 87. Indeed, with his ability to set a foundation, he also softens up the opposition's bowlers who are virtually demoralised by the time the Indian middle-order walks to the crease.
But India will especially crave his presence at Trent Bridge, where in 2002, he came up with a brilliant innings-shaping 106. This scintillating knock set the tone for the batsmen that followed. Although the match ended in a draw, he had handed his side the impetus to win the following Test and square the series with England.
Unlike batsmen who slacken up when retirement is around the corner, Sehwag has only grown from strength to strength. Sample this statistic - since Jan 2008, his Test batting average has surged to over 58 and the strike rate has hit 90! In Team India, only Sachin Tendulkar can boast a higher average.
But alas, Sehwag is far from the scene of his past heroics - undergoing rehabilitation from a niggling shoulder injury at Bangalore' National Cricket Academy. As of now there is no certainty as to when he will be handed a ticket to England. In the meantime, the present Indian line-up will have to find some way to compensate. Will Sachin be able to meet the challenge? As of now it's a tall order for the short batsman.

Fallout from a lawsuit, Jones's lawyers suggest he's a performance artist, and playing a character.
This is not really a surprise. But, unfortunately, this is the man that our President has publically lauded for his journalism, and "important work" and whose conspiracy laden scripts get turned into defense of questionable policy positions.
So, he's playing a character. Now, instead of the president loving the reporting of a genuine crackpot, the president is just taking cues from a guy who isn't a crackpot, but plays one on TV.
I'm not sure that's better.
Thoughts on the ramifications? if any? Have I missed something that makes this not even more disturbing than when we could assume he was genuine?
Views: 128
Yep. And that doesn't mean the reporting in its entirety is bogus. Jones knows he is a meme, and capitalizes on it. Everyone on television does it to an extent.
Infowars is about as crap as you can get. I've worked with a few of their journalists and I'll never visit their site again after meeting them.
So yes, I understand your concern Liam. Nothing about this presidency surprises me anymore...
Conspiracy theory: Jones and Trump have both been compromised by Duginists and are now unknowingly contributing to the execution of Russia's plans to destabilize the West.
Redpill me on Duginism.
Long story short:
Highly influential Russian intellectual / academic called Dugin writes a step-by-step instruction manual to destabilize the west and create a Eurasian empire run by Russia. Said intellectual / academic becomes senior Putin advisor and his books become mandatory reading in the Russian military academies. Plenty of what he plainly writes in black on white begins to actually happen IRL. Europe is already destabilized. The existence of NATO is being challenged. Russia is expanding its turf by taking over parts of sovereign countries as the West stands around and does nothing. Is the US immune? Or are things like the election hacking, fake news, the prominence of Jones, the ascent of Trump all the effects of Russia executing the Duginist plan?
It's certainly a conspiracy theory but IMO it's not that hard to believe. Especially since Jones and Trump frequently use language that is identical to Dugin's tenets and catchphrases.

Thanks man
This is a tactic that other conservative media figures have used. In order to disassociate from an ugly/wrong/hateful statement that gets media attention, they claim to be joking or playing a character. Somehow though, other statements and positions are supposed to be taken seriously and given some kind of intellectual credibility. Then again, I never understood, in an emotional way, why one listens to such people.
Although, Jones has the additional layer of his divorce/custody proceedings and that's apparently that's the context in which his lawyer said that Jones plays a character, in an effort to make Jones look a little more sympathetic and capable of caring for children.
Regardless, nothing about him or what he says is deserving of the attention of anyone, let alone the office of the president.
Among other ties between the two, Trump appeared on Jones' program on December 2, 2015, and told him: "Your reputation's amazing. I will not let you down."

Hi Guys,
Can someone explain how to modify your listener.ora and tnsnames.ora files?
I adjust these with no problems in Windows using the graphical interface, but in Linux I need some help understanding the naming system.
I have many years of Linux and Oracle experience but not much with them together. I'm running an Oracle 10g Windows server (live) and now an Oracle 10g Linux server (soon to be test).
Thanks in advance

1st Post
The easiest way if it's available would be to copy an existing entry and change what needs changed. You should be able to copy the ora files from your windows box to your linux box and modify as needed. They're stashed away in the %orahome%/network/admin folder unless you have the TNS_ADMIN environment variable defined. If that's the case then they will be in the folder specified by TNS_ADMIN.
Hope that helped a little.

The Kelowna Yacht Club, situated in Kelowna's downtown, is currently having a new 24,000 sq. ft. facility built. There's quite a lot of local buzz around the new two-story structure, and many in Kelowna are looking forward to seeing the new building open. The KYC is a much loved part of Kelowna's heritage and community.
With the new building comes the addition of a dining area for the public, and an adjustment to the KYC's branding. The club approached Media Button to design their new logo. The KYC's new logo had to represent the club's image across print and web, and give a modern feel, while remaining true to the principles that underpin the KYC.

On September 3, Republican Party chair Jim Greer (left) was quoted as stating before President Obama's speech that he "was appalled that taxpayer dollars are being used to spread President Obama's socialist ideology."
On September 8, Greer was reported to have read the text of the speech prior to its delivery and to have found nothing to criticize. Of course, it's difficult to call subversive a presidential speech with passages such as the following:
But at the end of the day, we can have the most dedicated teachers, the most supportive parents, and the best schools in the world - and none of it will matter unless all of you fulfill your responsibilities. Unless you show up to those schools; pay attention to those teachers; listen to your parents, grandparents and other adults; and put in the hard work it takes to succeed.
How is it that Greer was ready to denounce Obama's speech and its supposed ideology before he had actually read or heard it? It's clear that Greer, who holds a position of responsibility in his party, was spouting off. The assumption on the right is that anything said or proposed by Obama must be "socialist" or "fascist" or any other label thrown about recklessly. Both terms have been applied with equal abandon by the eminent historian Glenn Beck.
As far as I know, Greer has neither issued an apology nor shown any embarrassment for his earlier ridiculous remarks. His later concession cost nothing and he knows it. He played a part in convincing gullible parents to keep their children home. One father in Texas did so, stating, "I don't want our schools turned over to some socialist movement." It's unfortunate for a father to keep his children home from school so that they can't hear a speech whose real message was to stay in school. Some students who actually heard the speech said the following:
"He made me think I can do anything I want to," Haley [Welch] said after the speech. "Even if I have problems at home, school is a different place where I can leave that behind."
..."I liked the speech," said Christian Cristin-Sanchez, summing up views of several classmates. "He said you have to work hard, to always listen to others and have respect."
..."Asking a question is not a sign of weakness, it's a sign of strength," Ella Zeiler added.
These, I suppose, represent the young minds indoctrinated by Obama. How many reckless charges must be made against this President before those–like Jim Greer–who make them are immediately dismissed as buffoons?

Mr. JOHNSON of Georgia. Mr. Speaker, ladies and gentlemen, a shadowy collection of wealthy businesses and conservative Tea Party Republican State lawmakers is undermining our democracy.
Last week I discussed the connection between the American Legislative Exchange Council, known as ALEC, and the proliferation of shoot first and ask questions later legislation that supported the Trayvon Martin case that we all know about, and other draconian criminal justice laws.
According to the New York Times:
ALEC lawmakers typically introduced more than 1,000 bills based on model legislation each year and passed about 17 percent of them. A members-only newsletter from 1995, found in an online archive of tobacco company documents, bluntly characterized that success ratio as a ``good investment.''
I agree. ALEC's corporate members have gotten an outstanding return on their investments, but it's been at yours and my expense. Due to ALEC, the NRA, and the private for-profit prison industry, we are all less safe and more likely to be put in jail.
The for-profit prison industry, on the other hand, has reaped huge financial rewards from ALEC-sponsored efforts to incarcerate more Americans and put them, as well as illegal immigrants, into this private prison system. For the private prison industry, where some of the inmates are paid as low as 2 cents an hour to produce goods that are later sold for profit, business is booming.
But ALEC does not stop there. ALEC's corporate members are some of the world's biggest polluters and most profitable oil companies. ALEC's corporate bill factory has ghost-written legislation on their behalf to combat efforts to address climate change and oppose national renewable energy standards, among others.
In 1998, according to the Center for Media and Democracy, ALEC belched a resolution out of its smokestack calling on the U.S. to reject the Kyoto Protocol and banning States from regulating greenhouse gases. ALEC's Energy, Environment, and Agriculture Task Force has since turned out model bills criticizing the Environmental Protection Agency.
Recently, ALEC has focused on what it calls the ``EPA's regulatory train wreck,'' seeking to frame the EPA's enforcement of the Clean Air Act as ``higher prices, fewer jobs, and less energy.'' ALEC's dirty supporters, like the Koch brothers--named one of the United States' top 10 air polluters in a University of Massachusetts study--began attacking every effort to clean up the mess that they themselves have made. Why? Because they want to continue to make more money.
ALEC is dumping its waste right here in Congress. After the Tennessee coal ash disaster, ALEC began pushing a model resolution called Resolution to Retain State Authority over Coal Ash as Non-Hazardous Waste. Can you believe that? This resolution was approved by ALEC on June 3, 2010. Just over a year later, October 14, 2011, this House passed a bill that authorizes States to adopt and implement coal combustion residuals permit programs.
Mr. Speaker, this is only the tip of the melting iceberg. Yes, global warming is at work, and it is melting this iceberg that ALEC represents.
I encourage the American people to visit the alecexposed.org Web site, where you can view leaked ALEC documents, including model bills, as well as a list of ALEC members. About 60 percent of the State legislators in this country are members of ALEC.
Mr. Speaker, I'll return tomorrow with more on how corporations are using ALEC to install their agenda in the States and in Congress, undermining our basic rights and freedoms.

Guilin Shopping
Guilin Shopping
Where to Shop and What to Buy in Guilin
There can't really be an international tour without at least a few hours of shopping, can it? If you agree, you might want to know more about the kind of shopping you can do while you're in Guilin.
Guilin is quite famous for its art and handicrafts that you can buy at extremely reasonable – sometimes even bargain – prices. Most of these products are locally made by artisans and small shop owners, and they cover a wide range of objects right from porcelain, paper umbrella, pottery, and salt water pearls to medicinal material and the local edible products such as bean curd and water chestnuts.
Of course, these aren't the only things Guilin has to offer. There are also a number of large and modern department stores where you can find a number of things such as clothes, shoes, bags, etc. In other words, while you're in Guilin, you'll be able to buy whatever you want – be it some local Chinese item you want as a souvenir or some utility item you need while on the trip.
Here are some of the places that you might want to check out in Guilin:Read More
Artistic Pottery and Porcelain Factory
Yep, another art destination. After all, art doesn't stop at paintings, does it? This is one of the largest factories specifically catering to porcelain ware and artistic pottery. Those into exploring the culture of a civilization would find a goldmine of art here that's an integral part of the Chinese culture.
- Opening Hours: 9:00 - 18:30
- Address: 72 Seven Star Rd. Guilin
Ba Gui Da Sha
Ba Gui Da Sha, a center specifically for food and clothes also lies on the Zhongshan Road towards the west. It features a large number of stores selling different kinds of clothing across three floors. Moreover, you can also bargain here as much as you want – when buying things other than food. And mind you, the stand up comedian Russel Peters is probably right about how tough Chinese shop owners can be in terms of bargain. Regardless of what they say, try your best to bring the price down, and you might just be surprised!
The fourth floor in the Ba Gui Da Sha is specifically reserved for food, and it's named as "Hao Da Ma Cate Plaza."
- Opening Hours: 09:00 - 21:00
- Address: 29 Zhongshan Road Middle
Fuli Town
You can't imagine coming back from China and not bringing one of their famous paper fans, can you? Fuli, the town that impressed even the former President of the United States, Bill Clinton, is famous over the world for its hand-made and painted paper fans.
When you visit this town, however, do remember to keep your belongings safe and travel light – as this town is just as popular among pick pockets looking to make a quick buck at the expense of an unsuspecting tourist.
- Opening Hours: All day
- Location: 8 km east of a town named Yangshuo
Guilin Baguizai Calligraphy & Painting Store
This place features all the local art and calligraphy that you can choose from. This is a popular place for tourists who wish to take home something that has a uniquely Chinese identity.
- Opening Hours: 9:00 - 21:15
- Location: Nanlu, Ronghu
Guilin Book City
This is the largest store for books in all of Guilin, and it features a rich collection of local as well as international books. Perhaps not many tourists would be interested in reading books written in Chinese, however, you can definitely purchase a number of other things such as guides, maps, stationery, and videos.
- Opening Hours: 09:00 - 21:30
- Location: At a 2 minutes walk from the City Central Square towards north on Zhongshan Road
Guilin China Calligraphy & Painting Exhibition Room
If you are planning to take home a memorabilia from China, why stop yourself at just one art and calligraphy store, right? With that thought, here's another interesting place for the art enthusiasts out there. This exhibition room features a large collection of oil paintings as well as ink paintings created by local artists.
- Opening Hours: 9:00 - 21:15
- Address: #1 Beilu, Shanhu
Guilin Department Store
This one too is a very large shopping mall-like store with seven floors of space allowing for a very large number of items that are sold to both tourists and the local residents of Guilin.
Each floor features a different set of items just like any other mall. For example, the basement has a very popular food street; the first level contains stuff like clothes, bags, caps, etc.; the third floor is focused more on fashion rather than general clothing merchandise; the fourth floor is focused on sports goods and the likes; and the sixth floor features a gaming zone.
- Opening Hours: 19:30 - 23:00 daily
- Address: 122 Zhongshan Road Middle
Niko Niko Do Department Store
This is one of the largest shopping malls in Guilin featuring a wide range of items for sale including simple things such as clothes, hats, porcelain items and other more specialist items such as home fittings, special local products, etc. It also features a very large area for buying food items.
This mall was started as a joint venture with a Japanese franchise named Kumamoto, and has a strong support of the local civil, which means you will find pretty much everything you need right here.
- Opening Hours: 19:30 - 23:00 daily
- Address: Guilin Niko Niko Do Plaza, 37 Zhongshang Road Middle
Normal College Arts Shop
This is an art shop with a difference. Situated right inside the campus of the famous Guangzi Normal College, its surroundings are just as great as the work featured inside the shop. If you're serious about buying something really nice for yourself or a loved one, you might want to visit this place.
- Opening Hours: 9:00 - 18:30
- Address: Guangxi Normal College, Guilin
Smile Tang (Weixiao Tang)
This is another multi-storey shopping mall that features a popular food zone in the basement. It includes all the other stuff that you find at shopping malls in general. Weixiao Tang also features special local produce, which is quite popular among the tourists.
- Opening Hours: 09:00 - 21:30
- Address: Zhongshan Zhonglu

Author Tags: Outdoors, Politics
A grandson of J.S. Woodsworth, Glenn Woodsworth was born in 1943, the year after CCF-co-founder J.S. Woodsworth died. Having never known his grandfather, he was nonetheless deeply influenced by him. He knew J.S. Woodsworth's wife Lucy, who lived to age 102, and he gleaned some of his grandfather's political idealism from his own father, Ralph who, he claims, was most in tune with his grandfather's thinking among six siblings. In conjunction with a conference called Human Rights and Social Activism, Rethinking the Legacy of J.S. Woodsworth, at SFU Vancouver's Harbour Centre campus Sept. 22-24, 2005, Glenn Woodsworth and his wife Joy launched A Prophet at Home, an Intimate Memoir of J.S. Woodsworth (Tricouni Press, 2005), their latest title from Tricouni Press. The 54-page book features three of his grandfather's previously unpublished letters and a reminiscence of J.S. Woodsworth by his son Charles, likely penned in the late 1940s. Two of the letters were written by J.S. Woodsworth to his family during the Winnipeg Strike in 1919 and one was written to his daughter, Grace MacInnis. "My main purpose is to make sure the material isn't lost," said Glenn Woodsworth.
Woodsworth is the author of Cheap Sons of Bitches, An Informal Bibliography of the Publications of William Hoffer, Bookseller (Tricouni Press/Stephen Lunsford 1998). Also a past president of the B.C. Mountaineering Club, Glenn Woodsworth wrote the first rock climbing guide to the Squamish Chief in 1967 and is a former member of the Canadian Permanent Committee on Geographical Names. A geologist by profession, he wrote Hot Springs of Western Canada: A Complete Guide (Gordon Soules, 1977; 1999; 2014).

Press Release (2005)
J.S. Woodsworth's legacy rekindles debate on labour in B.C.
Legal, social and political change in B.C. will be at the forefront of debate at a conference celebrating the life and legacy of J.S. Woodsworth, a major figure in the evolution of labour in Canada.
Human Rights and Social Activism, Rethinking the Legacy of J.S. Woodsworth will be held at SFU Vancouver's Harbour Centre campus from Sept.22-24. Social scientists, politicians, labour and social activists will examine such issues as the effects of globalization on institutions and social policy, the contemporary erosion of social rights, community education and activism, aboriginal rights and justice, and gay rights and equality legislation.
Speakers will include Stephen Lewis, the United Nations Secretary-General's Special Envoy for HIV/AIDS in Africa, who will talk on Beyond Canada's Borders: Peace, Human Rights and Social Activism, at a banquet on Friday evening at the Hyatt Regency Hotel in Vancouver.
Other speakers include Allen Mills, Woodsworth's biographer, former MP Svend Robinson, Neil Edwards of the Ontario Human rights commission and David Sangha of the University of Northern BC., speaking Saturday on human rights and future policy discourse. Mills will give a free public lecture at Harbour Centre's Fletcher Challenge Theatre on Sept 22 at 5:30 p.m. For a complete list, registration and information, check www.sfu.ca/conferences/jswoodsworth
In conjunction with the event, Woodsworth's grandson, Glenn Woodsworth, will launch a short book about his grandfather, called A Prophet at Home : An Intimate Memoir of J.S. Woodsworth, featuring unpublished written material by Woodsworth. The book is being published by Glenn Woodsworth's publishing company, Tricouni Press.

NEW YORK (Hollywood Reporter) - ABC News' Charles Gibson has snagged the first interview with Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin since she was named the GOP's vice presidential pick on August 29.
Palin has been one of the most sought-after interview subjects, but presidential nominee John McCain's campaign has kept Palin away from the media amid speculation in some quarters about her relative inexperience.
Details of the interview have not been announced, but it's likely to take place within the next week and appear on all of ABC News' platforms, including "World News With Charles Gibson" and possibly a primetime hour.
There were no preconditions to the interview.
Gibson and executive producer Jon Banner locked down the interview Friday, when Gibson was in Los Angeles for the "Stand Up to Cancer" benefit telethon.

You won't find Franz Ferdinand -- the band or the Austrian archduke -- in this Top Pop Albums of 2004 extravaganza. The cheeky Glaswegians were the hands-down darlings of critics this year, but to these ears, FF's self-titled debut sounded like a bunch of same-sounding B-sides from Rod Stewart's "Do Ya Think I'm Sexy?" days. Wilco, the Libertines and the Streets -- also faves of music snobs the world over -- didn't goose me much, either.
What you will find here are the 10 albums from '04 -- a phenomenal year for newbies and old favorites -- that spent the most time spinning in my CD player, long after the reviews were written.
Okay, are we ready? Good. Commence grumbling . . . now:
The Killers, "Hot Fuss." Just might be the album of the year. Kinda chilly, slightly glammy and totally yummy blasts of '80s-style British new wave -- from four young dudes in Las Vegas? Led by charismatic singer Brandon Flowers, the Killers are by far the best of the new retro rebels. Think New Order with more heart. Or the Cure with less Dippity-do.
Gretchen Wilson, "Here for the Party." Not since Tanya Tucker have country fans so embraced such a hell-raising hottie. The Bud-swilling, boy-teasing belle of the Muzik Mafia -- a collective of outlaws, also including Big & Rich, who are looking to spice up Nashville -- gave a big howdy with the irresistible double-wide anthem "Redneck Woman."
Loretta Lynn, "Van Lear Rose." White Stripes goon Jack White producing the Coal Miner's Daughter sounded like a bad idea. But this May-December couple works wonders, from heartbreaking laments about lost loves ("Miss Being Mrs.") to wicked honky-tonk kiss-offs ("Mrs. Leroy Brown").
Ludacris, "The Red Light District."Atlanta's Ludacris, the Cheech and the Chong of hip-hop, throws his best bash yet. His rhymes are silly, his hooks are huge and his punch lines hit more than they miss. Check out the bump-and-thump of "Number One Spot," built on a stuttering sample of Quincy Jones's "Soul Bossa Nova" (aka the "Austin Powers" theme song).
Kanye West, "The College Dropout." The most impressive hip-hop debut since Jay-Z dropped 1996's "Reasonable Doubt." Hard to imagine that producer-turned-performer West will ever top the chilling gospel thunder of "Jesus Walks," but it'll be fun listening to him try.
Green Day, "American Idiot." The most influential band of the past 10 years goes to the opera -- a pop-punk opera -- and gets its "Tommy" on for this epic about a wacked-out teenager named "the Jesus of Suburbia." Who knows what frontman Billie Joe Armstrong is howling about, but the sudden shifts in genre, melody and mayhem remind me of the latter half of "Abbey Road."
Gwen Stefani, "Love. Angel. Music. Baby." The No Doubt singer's solo sabbatical is the guilty-pleasure hit of the year. If "Rich Girl" -- a hip-hop remake of "If I Were a Rich Man" -- doesn't put you in a better mood, you have serious problems, pal.
Nellie McKay, "Get Away From Me." Randy Newman in a cocktail dress? Ben Folds with a perm? Eminem loose in the Blue Note? On her double-disc debut, this piano-playing New Yorker raps, rocks, scats, croons -- and defies categorization with cocky verve.
Courtney Love, "America's Sweetheart." Yeah, that's right. I totally dig Courtney Love. Really. I adore her. On this glorious train wreck of pop, metal and mania, she thrashes around like a crash-test dummy in a Maybelline puddle, a cautionary tale tottering down the gutters of the Sunset Strip in broken heels. I find that refreshing.
Velvet Revolver, "Contraband." You just know former Stone Temple Pilot Scott Weiland has more bad headlines in his future. And ax-wielding guitar star Slash certainly isn't long for this world. But on "Contraband," these metalheads pump out a blistering hairball of killer licks, rowdy anthems and, most importantly, zero irony. Definitely the rock album of the year.
Of course if you corner me tomorrow -- "Where's Nas?" "Have you even heard of Keane?" "How about Interpol, muttonhead?" -- there's a very good chance that the aforementioned list will shift and shimmy. Here are 10 more from '04 that will keep me waffling:
Modest Mouse, "Good News for People Who Love Bad News"; U2, "How to Dismantle an Atomic Bomb"; The Mavericks, "The Mavericks"; Prince, "Musicology"; Brian Wilson, "Smile"; the Zutons, "Who Killed . . . the Zutons"; Big & Rich, "Horse of a Different Color"; Scissor Sisters, "Scissor Sisters"; Travis Tritt, "My Honky Tonk History"; and Ricky Fante, "Rewind."
And then came the clunkers. Perturbed Parrotheads sent surly letters when I deemed Jimmy Buffett's "License to Chill" to be a manipulative dud. But I like getting mail, so I'm saying it again: It stinks like a weekend pirate with a Corona hangover. Lenny Kravitz's "Baptism" was like a "Mad TV" spoof of a Lenny Kravitz album. And on Tim McGraw's mushtacular "Live Like You Were Dying," the behatted pretty boy makes wife Faith Hill sound tough and Dr. Phil sound wise.
As for live shows, there were several humdingers. Hank Williams III tore up the Black Cat. Velvet Revolver, the Scissor Sisters and John Fogerty made the 9:30 club feel like the center of the rock universe. And alt-country crooner Allison Moorer warmed a chilly Birchmere.
But the best bangs for your buck were a trio of shows at MCI Center. A charming, funny Prince broke out the hits -- and played them straight -- for three booty-bumping hours. Beyonce, Alicia Keys and Missy Elliott joined forces for the Ladies First Tour, an all-night spectacle that moved along briskly despite the lavish stage designs. And the Vote for Change finale, featuring a who's who of left-leaning rockers -- Bruce Springsteen, John Mellencamp, Dave Matthews, the Dixie Chicks, and then some -- was light on Bush-bashing, heavy on the classics and unforgettable no matter what your political persuasion.

All Things Considered Music
All Things Considered Director Bob Boilen answers your questions about the music you hear between stories.
How do you pick the music?
Some directors listen to stories ahead of time and preplan what they play. My style is much more like an improvising musician. That is, I pick most of the music, while we are on the air -- and just before we need it. I often listen to the story while you are hearing it, get an idea of mood, see how much time I have to play music, figure out what I need to transition to. I have a CD player in front of me and a pair of headphones. Before I come into the studio, I bring a selection of about 15 CDs from our very large collection. When I hear something I like, I hand the CD to our engineer, and they cue it up in one of the on air CD players. Some of the CDs I bring into the studio are randomly selected, some purposely selected, based on the stories for the day. I am known for making mad dashes out of the studio during the program, to my office to find a piece of music.
Why do you play music?
The music on our program has many purposes. It fills the time -- since we have certain "time posts" we have to hit so stations can break away -- and it's used for transition, to get us from, say, a story on Witches in the Military, to a story on Moths. It is also useful for setting or continuing a mood. Say you have a very powerful story, it can give the listener a chance to breathe, or in some cases a chance to laugh.
Where do you find the music?
People send us CDs. Most are available in any good record shop, but most radio stations don't play much of the great music that is out there. But that's another story.
What's your favorite?
My favorite, that's a hard one. I always look forward to something that is challenging but accessible. Tuatara fits into that category. So does Don Byron, or Gustavo Santaolalla. Both Eno brothers, Roger and Brian. But I also like the standards and by that I mean the music of the 30s and 40s, Irving Berlin, the Gershwins. I think great American music, melodies that are part of our language, are wonderful touchstones for our program.

LARAMIE, Wyo. -
The Cowgirl tennis team had another tough battle on their hands as they closed out the weekend with a 4-0 loss against the 28th ranked Auburn Tigers. The match was played at the Lubbock Country Club.
"Overall, I felt like this was a good weekend for us," head coach Dean Clower said. "We got better on a lot of things we have been working on. The one thing we have to do better is taking our chances when they come which we didn't do today."
In doubles action, the Tigers took two out of three matches needed to win the first point of the day. Pleun Burgmans and Emily Flickinger earned a 6-1 win over Magdalena Stencel and Jessica Parizher, while Michala Kucharova and Paula de Man clinched the point with a 6-4 win over Silviya Zhelyazkova and Dorottya Jonas. Alma Espinosa and Christa Gecheva were 5-4 in their match against Jen Pfeifler and Reka Muller.
At the number one spot, Stencel dropped her match against Burgmans, 7-5, 6-0. Dikosavlievic defeated Zhelyazkkova in straight sets, 6-0, 6-4, while Muller beat Parizher, 7-5, 6-2 to close out the match. Jonas was down a set against Flickinger, but did not finish, while Gecheva and Espinosa were each in the first set of their matches and not completed.
The Wyoming tennis team will be back in action on Friday, Feb. 13 as it hosts the first home match of the spring. The Cowgirls welcome the Denver Pioneers beginning at 11 a.m. MT at the UW Tennis Complex.

Did you go to private school?
I'm just curious in the public vs private school debate: is private school better?
My cousin went to a private Catholic school for elementary while I went to public school. I don't think either of us are smarter than the other over all. He did seem to really hate public middle school though whereas I had no problems at all with it. We went to high school together and I'd say we were both pretty average as far as students went.
Do you think private schools are an advantage over public schools?
I was going to a kind of private school - it was technical school with alot of mathematic and physics). We were smart pants - all of my classmates, but you know what? Now we are at the same level with my friends who went to public school
I went to public school. I knew some students who went to private school but I don't think there is any difference between us, other than in their minds - they seemed uppity back then, haven't seen them in over 20 years so not sure how they are now.

Epsom salt "paint" creates an almost magical painting experience -- the liquid dries into crystals that look like snow or frost. The wow-worthy process happens when water evaporates out of the Epsom salt -- magnesium sulfate -- solution, leaving behind nothing but magnesium sulfate crystals. Mix your own versions for glass or paper painting, or create a special coating to decorate the outside of candleholders.
Frosted Glass Paint
A super-saturated Epsom salt solution turns into a homemade frost paint to cover entire window panes with a crystalline film that looks like ice or frost. Mix 1/2 cup warm water with 1/3 cup Epsom salt, stirring until the salt dissolves completely. Stir in a drop or two of liquid dish soap. Dip a soft cloth into the salty solution; then wipe down a clean window pane. As the water evaporates, it leaves behind magnesium sulfate -- or Epsom salt -- crystals. Painting shapes such as snowflakes or snowmen on a window may prove difficult since the solution will run and drip. If you wish to create specific designs, tape a stencil onto the glass or make one from masking tape, cutting away the areas you wish to paint. Peel the tape or stencil away once the crystals form.
Paint for Paper
Pour 1/2 cup Epsom salt into a glass container such as a measuring cup that holds more than 1 cup of liquid. Boil water; then pour 1/2 cup of the hot water into the Epsom salt, stirring to blend the materials completely. Brush the paint onto thick dark paper such as indigo or black construction paper while the liquid is fairly warm, creating straight lines, words or designs. Allow the painted liquid to evaporate without going back over the same lines again; otherwise, the crystals may not form properly.
Wild Watercolors
Create your own crystal-forming watercolor paints using Epsom salt, table salt, food coloring and water. Pour 1 tablespoon each of Epsom salt and water into a shallow container, adding a few pinches of table salt and a drop or two of your favorite liquid food coloring. Swirl the container around to mix the materials, then paint with it on thick watercolor paper. Once the moisture evaporates completely -- which may take an entire day -- it leaves behind colored crystals atop the painted paper, adding an extra dimension to your creative work.
Crystallized Candleholders
Turn plain glass jars or candleholders into frosty translucent wonders by coating them with Epsom salt. Create stripes, chevrons or shapes with strips of masking tape; then paint between the paint strips with decoupage medium or a watered-down school glue. Roll the glass vessel through a shallow tray of Epsom salt to give the glass a crystalline coating. Allow the glass to dry completely before removing the tape. A candle or tealight candle within the glass illuminates the frosted areas for a soft, ambient effect.
