I really like the anime aspect of the movie. It has that traditional comedy feel to it, much like your Real Legend series. I also liked the story line in this one; it has a lot of potential. Keep making them.

You get points for your art, which was very good. However, the dress-up games are getting old, and have been for some time. So just drop the dress-up thing and use your artistic skills for something a little deeper.

Uneasy Spring
All of the unusually early activity is enough to make any gardener or farmer uneasy. If this is the end of winter, what will summer look like? And of course, there is the problem that a reversion to normal weather, with the chance of temperatures back into the mid- to low 20s, could damage the fruit that's beginning to form on trees and bushes in yards and orchards all around. Losing the early crop of figs wouldn't be too horrible - our fig tree sets another crop later in the spring - but most of the other fruits in my yard bloom and set one crop of fruit each year (Heritage raspberries, an exception, make an additional small crop in late summer). I'd rather not lose the blueberries, blackberries, black raspberries, and plums.
As the weather continues to be strange, I find myself making contingency plans for a "bad" gardening year. Grandpa Bill, gardening last year in Oklahoma's 60-plus days of above-100-degree weather, didn't really get a tomato crop. He got peppers, but he had rigged a shade over each plant to help protect the fruits from sun-scald. I am going to keep that strategy in mind - I have some tulle that I use over plants as a barrier to insect pests, but the same fabric could be used as a shade-cloth to lessen the sun's intensity over sensitive plants.
I usually start a few tomato plants in early April to plant out at the end of June, and I will definitely do that again this year, as insurance against a horrible July and August, and if we get a freeze that damages our main fruits, I'll make a big space in the garden for ground cherries, a tomato-relative that I usually grow just a few plants of. That would ease the pain of losing most of the fruit.
I'm thinking about putting in a patch of bush beans soon, too, and I wouldn't normally plant those for four more weeks. If a freeze kills the whole patch, I won't have lost much in the way of resources and time. I can just replant the 20-or-so square feet at the end of April, like usual. If we are past the last freeze, though, it will be good to have already made a start. Since the potato beetles are out and on the prowl, it's likely that other pests - and diseases - also will have made an early start. I'd like to stay ahead of them, as much as possible.
Gardeners have to be flexible - the weather is never exactly normal, but this spring is further from normal than any I've yet seen. It will be interesting to see how this all turns out.

I'm with you in hoping that summer isn't as much warmer than usual as winter was and spring is being.ReplyDelete
Owlfan - Were you able to find seed potatoes this year? Anything new going into your garden?ReplyDelete
Someone offered me some seeds yesterday - he "buys plenty" - and I had to laugh because I also, always, buy plenty. I don't have any new and exciting seeds to try this year, but it looks like the weather is going to provide plenty of gardening excitement. I went ahead and planted a little patch of bush beans yesterday; out at my friend's garden/farm I planted a big bed of summer squash, and I plan to plant zucchini in my own garden either today or tomorrow.
Hope you are able to get the big chunks of wood out from under your Mom's garden site without too much trouble! Those crazy subdivision builders ...
- BarbaraMarch 26, 2012 at 3:13 PM
This is my first year to try potatoes so I've not ever contended with potato beetles. I have, however, read about them so have been on the lookout. What organic/non-toxic method do you use to control?ReplyDelete
Last year those little worms came through and ate all the apple blossoms and leaves so no apples. I'm going to be upset if a late hard freeze gets this year's apples. They are hard and tart and make great jelly, chutney, and apple butter. Also - I like to shake them down in early fall and then sit on the deck and watch the deer come and eat them. (We're easily entertained in the country!) And berries - would hate to lose the blueberry crop or have a late freeze get early strawberries.
I'm having the worst time this year with fire ants already. They are making their way into my rasied beds and I am trying desperately to keep them away. Any suggestions?
Barbara - I haven't had to deal with the potato beetles in my own yard, but my potato patch is small enough that I would probably just pick them off and drown them in soapy water.ReplyDelete
My friends with the big garden/farm are not organic gardeners, and they use Sevin. Before I started volunteering out there, it had been a long time since I'd seen a container of that product! When I was a kid (many moons ago) my Mom used it in the house for fleas in the summer.
About fire ants - they are often a huge problem! At our old Plant a Row site, we used a product with Spinosid that seemed to at least chase them out of the veggie garden. I've heard of people using diatomaceous earth, orange oil, coffee grounds, grits and corn meal, too, but I don't have experience with those. This website has some helpful information: http://www.clemson.edu/extension/hgic/plants/vegetables/gardening/hgic1263.html
I'm still a little concerned about the fruit and the chance for a late frost, but the forecast is still for continued warm, so I'm trying to not think about it too much. Instead, I planted the zucchini today. It seems insanely early, but the ground is so warm ...
Yes the weather has been crazy. I too am concerned about having edible lettuce. I hope everyone has great yields this year.ReplyDelete
Shelly, Hope the variety(ies) of lettuce you planted are as heat-resistant as possible!ReplyDelete
No, no seed potatoes this year either. I hunted, but probably not as hard as I could have. This year things have gotten away from us and I decided that the limbs were just going to stay buried in the garden another year in favor of going ahead and planting. We got the first green beans planted yesterday. The weather has stayed unreasonably warm.ReplyDelete
Owlfan - Bummer about the seed potatoes. And I totally understand about leaving the branches under the garden space. In my neighborhood, the builders did the same thing - burying the pieces of trees that they'd had to remove to make room for the houses. In one yard, the "tree pit" was under the driveway, and over time that driveway just slowly caved in. It was a mess! However, the cratering did indicate that the tree stumps and parts were decomposing. Maybe if you can just hold out long enough, the bacteria/fungi/worms will do their magic on the trees under your Mom's yard.ReplyDelete
Most people around here have been calling the early hot weather "unseasonable." I like your word better - I'm going to start calling it "unreasonable," too.

Aspartame is a highly addictive mind-rotting artifical sweetner which is known to cause brain cancer, headaches and seizures. It has gained popularity as an alternative to sugar, particularly in diet soda products. It was first invented in 1965 by the G. D. Searle & Company. This company was purchased by Monsanto in 1985, including it's aspartame product which was branded as NutraSweet. Robert B. Shapiro✡ a Jewish businessman from New York City had worked for G. D. Searle and when it was bought by Monsanto was the CEO of NutraSweet. The FDA which had previously rejected aspartame, approved it in 1983.

Favio Theme Excerpt Issue
Hey there, I love the Fazio Theme but I'm having one problem that is extremely frustrating.
In the Fazio Theme Options there is a line that reads:
"Check this if you want to show the excerpt"
If that line is checked then when you are on the Home page of the site you'll see an excerpt of the posts. If it is not checked, you will not see an excerpt of the posts.
That's clear. Good so far.
Here's the thing, there is no option to turn the "excerpt" on or off on single posts. I can't find where the excerpt is in the editor either for single posts.
I want a nice clean look that flows neatly from the title of a post to its content without the repetition of an excerpt breaking things up.
Is there anyone who can help?
If you click on the home page of my site you'll see that the article does not have an excerpt. That's a good thing since I opted to not check that option. http://derekouellette.com
But if you select a single post you'll see that the except is there, which is ugly, unnecessary, redundant and breaks the flow of the article. http://derekouellette.com/launch-date-august-27-2012/
I appreciate any help someone can provide! Thanks much!

I also made a custom designed envelope (not pictured) from the Kaleidoscope DSP and the Envelope Punch Board. What a great tool that Punch Board is!
My dad was an American History teacher for 30 years and the globe is always a special symbol reminding me of him. He had several nice globes and maps in his office at home. I remember many evenings spent down there as he helped me study for tests and finding places on the globe. When I saw this stamp set, it just called my name and I had to have it! So glad I got it right away, because it was only available for a limited time.
Here's a tip for lining up your images with Framelits dies. Most Framelits have the word "Sizzix" on them. If you place that word at the top of your stamped image it will be perfectly lined up or you may have to adjust just slightly.
Stamps: Love You More (no longer available), Starburst Sayings (133185c, 133182w), Afterthoughts (retired)
Paper: Island Indigo, Kaleidoscope DSP, Whisper White, Basic Black, Strawberry Slush

Sri Lanka - Travel and visas
Getting there and away
Getting around
Entry into Sri Lanka has been streamlined for the cyber age. Whatever your nationality you can now get an Electronic Travel Authorisation (ETA) online that guarantees you an entry permit as a tourist for 30 days upon arrival. The details and the current cost (payable online by credit card) are available on the website www.eta.gov.lk. An ETA is required by every visitor, except those holding Singaporean or Maldivian passports, or those who are in transit. If you haven't got an ETA (it's a document you must download and print to show at the immigration counter) then you will have to join a tiresome queue at a special desk upon arrival to pay your fee and get one there. At the immigration desk, a sticker will be placed in your passport showing until what date you are allowed to remain in Sri Lanka.
If you intend to stay longer than 30 days it helps to have obtained a visa for the required period from a Sri Lankan consulate abroad before arriving. However, extensions up to 90 days from the date of arrival are possible upon application in Colombo. If you are visiting on business then a visa is required from the Sri Lanka mission in your home country.
Getting there and away
By air
Colombo airport (CMB) is served by various airlines from Europe, the Middle and Far East, and India. The major carriers are SriLankan (UL – the only one with non-stop flights from London), BA (via Maldives), Emirates (EK – with aircraft change in Dubai). Other airlines with scheduled flights include Aeroflot (SU), Air Arabia (G9), Air Asia (AK), Air India Express (IX), Air Italy (I9), Air Italy Polska (AEI), Air Sahara (S2), Austrian (OS), Cathay Pacific (CX), China Eastern Airlines (MU), Condor (DE), Eurocypria (ECA), Erofly (GJ), Etihad (EY), First Choice Air (TOM), Fly Dubai (FZ), Gulf Air (GF), Indian (IC), Iran Air (IR), Jet (9W), Jet Lite (S2), Kingfisher (IT), Kuwait (KU), LTU (LT), Malaysian (MH), Martin Air (MP), Mihin Lanka (MJ) (see below), Oman (WY), Qatar (QR), Royal Jordanian (RJ), Saudi Arabian (SV), Singapore (SQ), Spice Jet (SG), State Transport Co Russia (FV), Thai (TG) and Turkish (TK).
To Mattala Rajapaksa International Airport (HRI) there are time flights by Fly Dubai (from Dubai) and SriLankan (from Riyadh, Bangkok & Male).
The national carrier is SriLankan Airlines, descended from Air Ceylon, which became Air Lanka in 1979. A new name was introduced in 1999 after the management was taken over by Emirates Airlines of Dubai on an agreement which expired in March 2008. Then it became wholly Sri Lankan managed. It has an all-Airbus fleet with direct services to London, Paris, Rome, Frankfurt and Moscow; Singapore, Bangkok, Hong Kong, Shanghai, Beijing, Canton, Kuala Lumpur and Tokyo; Kuwait, Damman, Riyadh, Jeddah, Doha, Abu Dhabi, Muscat and Dubai; Malé (Maldives), and a network linking Colombo with cities in India, including Bangalore, Chennai (Madras), Delhi, Kochi (Cochin), Trichy, Trivandrum, Mumbai (Bombay) and Karachi. The planes are comfortable with each seat having individual in-flight movie screens and controls, including a telephone. Business class (there is no first) has reclining seats in a 2x2x2 layout, which means it is more spacious than its former partner airline, Emirates, whose business class is 2x3x2. The cabin crew are all Sri Lankan and passengers are greeted on boarding with the traditional ayubowan ('may you have long life'). If you have a chance to talk with the crew you will surely enjoy the flight since they are great ambassadors for their country.
By sea
Going to Sri Lanka by sea is almost impossible. There is no ferry service from India, and no regular sailings by passenger ships from anywhere. However, sometimes cruise liners of the Silverseas and Seabourn lines drop in for the day and it might be possible to cruise on them and disembark in Colombo. Disembarking at the Colombo port is a hassle; so many documents have to be supplied (by the ship's agent to the authorities) and there is also a tiresome customs check (no green channels). Some cargo/passenger ships call in too. If you are determined to come by sea, a good way might be as a crew member on one of the few private sailing yachts that occasionally visit Galle.
The port itself has very few facilities for visiting cruise passengers although temporary stands displaying souvenirs, gems and tea will be set up for the arrival of a cruise ship. Passengers are obliged to take a taxi into town (no shuttle buses) and the taxi drivers, who are hoping for full-day tours, are reluctant to take passengers on short runs unless tipped outrageously. However, it is worthwhile hiring a taxi in the port for the day as it will have a permit to enable it (and you) to get back in again. If you walk to the port gates (often a long hike) you'll have to walk back again from the gates after your journey as outside taxis aren't allowed inside the port. There are no ATMs, post office, IDD telephones or dining facilities available in the port.
Getting around
There is a school of thought which suggests that when you visit a Third-World country, you should travel the way the locals do. The idea is that you will then experience life in the raw, as the locals do. In Sri Lanka, forget it. You are there on holiday, so why subject yourself to the horrors of the cheapest local public transport?
You see, if you do try to travel the cheapest possible way, you might be depriving a Sri Lankan, who cannot afford any other method of travel, of a place on that bus, or a seat in that third-class carriage. The argument that travelling by public transport helps the economy is spurious. You would be contributing more, and more effectively, to the local economy by hiring a car with a driver for a private tour.
However, the main reason for hiring your own transport is convenience. You will be able to see all you want in the short time you have available, and you will be able to stop whenever you want. If you are on a bus and see a pretty spring bridge or a couple of copulating porcupines you want to photograph, you haven't got a chance.
Tourists on organised coach tours suffer in a different way; they are stuck with the stops decreed by the guide. His motivation often depends on getting his passengers to purchase something (overpriced spices, suspect gems, vulgar batiks) so he can earn a commission. It may be a strain on your holiday budget, or against the grain of your thrifty outlook but – believe me! – hiring an air-conditioned car with driver/guide is a worthwhile investment for a few days' touring.
By air
The opening in 2013 of Sri Lanka's second international airport at Mattala, in the deep south of the country, has brought with it scheduled domestic flights (although not every day) by SriLankan Airlines with seats available on the international flights that touch down at Mattala Rajapaksa International Airport.
By train
For travelling independently by public transport, trains provide the most enjoyable means of getting around. Buying a ticket is simple. You turn up at the station at least ten minutes before the train is scheduled to depart (or earlier so you can secure a seat if you are boarding at its originating station), go to the counter for second- or third-class travel (there may be a short queue), pay your money and collect your ticket. Reserved accommodation, booked no more than ten days in advance, is available on some trains.
Although the departure and arrival times quoted in this guide are based on the current timetable, intending passengers should check with the departure station for changes owing to rescheduling. There is a railway tourist information service on 011 2421281, ext 336. There is also an efficient timetable enquiry service run, not by the railways, but by the government (see www.gov.lk), which gives train times and fares. However, it does not list trains that go through Colombo (such as the Vavuniya/Matara/Vavuniya service) so some stitching together of connections and/or departures is necessary.
There are fast, daily Intercity Express (ICE) trains serving Kandy, Anuradhapura and Galle from Colombo. Colombo's main railway station is Colombo Fort; the other station is Maradana, which is also a terminus for trains on the Coast line. Except where stated all trains have second and third class.
By bus
The dedicated bus traveller has plenty of choice, although it is confusing. Basically there are two types of bus operation. The buses that look like buses, with an entry at one end and an exit at the other, rigid seats, and a high roof with room for passengers to stand, are run by a nationalised concern in different forms. They are still sometimes referred to as CTB (Ceylon Transport Board) buses and are generally a grubby aluminium and red or yellow in appearance. Where I mention these in the text, I refer to them as 'local buses' since they are more appropriate for short journeys from one village to the next than for long-distance trips.
The other kind are private buses, mostly of the coach type, built in Japan, with padded seats including some which flop down in the aisle, and rarely enough leg or head room. Some of these are air-conditioned intercity buses running between major towns, which do not (well, sometimes they do) stop to pick up passengers en route. Fares on these cost more than on stopping buses. (On all buses be sure to collect a ticket or receipt of some sort when you pay; there is a fine for ticket-less travel, even if you have paid.)
By road
The road network is good and extensive and the main highways are generally well maintained, although country lanes are very bumpy. By 2013, upgrading to most main highways throughout the country had been completed, although work was still underway on the A7 linking Colombo with Nuwara Eliya and on the A9 to Jaffna at the time of going to print. The opening of the (toll fee payable) Southern Expressway from the southern Colombo suburb of Kottawa to Galle has reduced the travel time from over two hours to just one hour. The country's second expressway, linking the international airport at Katunayake with the northern Colombo suburb of Kelani, opened late 2013.
Not all minibuses that take tourists have good springs, which adds to the agony of a long journey along country lanes. Traffic and other police wear brown uniforms and will suddenly step out into the road and blow a whistle to order a vehicle to stop, either because of speeding or some other perceived traffic violation. The driver is given a charge sheet detailing the fine payable for the offence he is deemed to have committed and must surrender his licence. The fine has to be paid to any post office, a receipt obtained, and the driver has to go back to the police station nearest to where he was stopped and collect his licence. Very tiresome if the driver is stopped far from home and has to make another trip back just to retrieve the licence. However, there was a proposal mooted in 2013 for a system of spot fines instead.
By taxi
In Colombo there are radio taxis and the major hotels also have their own cars, with hotel logo, for hire by the hour or by the journey (hotel cars have fixed-price lists and the fee can be added to the room bill for paying by credit card). The rate for taxis in Colombo (but bound to increase) is from Rs68 per kilometre, with a 3km minimum charge.
For short journeys around Colombo, a new service has been introduced using Indian-made Nano cabs: small mini cars. They're a bit cramped if you're tall especially in the back seat, but cheap and cheerful and more comfortable than the ubiquitous three-wheeler taxis. They are metered so if the meter's working you'll have a journey priced at less than a hotel's hired car. In the resorts, the usual form of transport will be by private minibus that can be hired through the hotel for touring. Arrangements can be made independently and the drivers will usually have a fixed-price list for standard tours.
By three-wheeler
Colombo and all towns and villages have clusters of three-wheelers. Called a ground-helicopter in Hikkaduwa, this is what is known as a tuk-tuk in Thailand, or an auto, short for auto-rickshaw in India, and also a trishaw. They have three wheels and are noisy; breezy too since they don't have side panels.
They can be hailed whenever you see an empty one. It is wiser, though, to look for one that is parked so you can agree on the price before boarding, as not all have meters (or the meter might be 'out of order'). The official minimum fare will be Rs50. You can bargain if you have the energy; don't bother to tip though, as the driver will include a tip in the fare he quotes you. Some drivers will tell you to pay what you think is a fair fare. You'll soon know if you haven't paid enough.
Tuk-tuks with meters are more easily available in Colombo where the first kilometre incurs a charge of Rs50, with subsequent kilometres at Rs32. Regulations were being introduced in 2013 for all tuk-tuks to have meters.

They told us he had been missing for nearly two days, that he probably drowned. They told us a lie.
Megan was 10 years old when her older brother, Zac, went missing among the cliffs, caves, and beaches that surround the small seaside town of Whitecliff.
A decade later, a car crash has claimed the lives of her parents.
Megan and her younger sister, Chloe, return to Whitecliff one summer for the first time since their brother's disappearance. Megan says it's to get her parents' affairs in order. There are boxes to pack, junk to clear, a run-down cottage to sell. But that's not the real reason.
Megan has come to confront her family's past after receiving a postcard on the day of her parents' funeral. It had a photograph of Whitecliff on the front and a single letter on the back.
"Z" is all it read.
Z for Zac.
A totally gripping psychological thriller that will have fans of Louise Jensen, Sue Fortin, and The Silent Child absolutely hooked.

"Bland & Predictable"
I very rarely rate a book less than 3 stars. This is only the 3rd 2 star rating I've ever given after over 300 audiobooks over the years (I was listening to audiobooks when cassette tapes were the in thing). The narrator is the only thing that saves this book & the only reason I was able to even finish. The story is extremely bland. There are way too many side subjects that never really go anywhere. I'm left quite disappointed.
"Last ten chapters were the best"
This was OK certainly not a psychological thriller. Wasn't an edge of your seat read
A lot going on, it's simply was not a well thought out novel. The ending was a let down due to the prologue. I found this Audiobook simply unlikabe.

The two sisters both have such different personalities but their shared tragedies produce a symbiotic relationship. Exciting, fast paced with a lot of guessing right up to the end. Great narration too.
The narration was monotone and the story too long for the disappointing ending. Will not listen to other books by this author or narrator
"Didn't Grab Me!"
This book was hard work, i can usually go through a book in a few days but this one seemed to go on forever, I am not saying its a bad book its just not one of the best. it just didn't grab my attention
I love Kerry's Jessica Daniel Series they are amazing so yes defo, and i would read another stand alone book
I like Alison's narration on all the books she has read, she has an easy to listen to voice
Tough question, it was quite predictable and i guessed who the 'baddie' was pretty much straight away so reading it right through and finding i was right was a bit disappointing. but yes, give it a read
The story was quite unrealistic and it would of been good to get to know the characters a bit more, to see them develop to delve more in to Megans eating disorder and her relationship with her mother and the obviouus chemistry between her and Van
"Two sisters"
I expect that this is a good book but, the narrator was very annoying....I made it to chapter 9 and couldn't listen any more. I had to return!
"Ploughed through it...."
A less predictable storyline.
Hell yeah. His Jessica Daniel series is ace.
She just didn't grab my attention like other narrators usually do. And considering 95% of the cast is apparently Cornish, you'd never know it from the voices she gives them.
As the title says, I ploughed through this just to find out what happened with Zac. With the exception of a bit of a twist at the end it was fairly predictable throughout. I would probably have given up on it had he not left revealing the truth about Zac until the last half hour.
Unfortunately I will be returning this for a credit refund.

You know you've got one. Maybe it's a half-melted, hand-me-down beige rubber spatula you still use to stir risotto. Or a scorched, chipped T-fal sauté pan that sloughs random bits of "non-stick" coating onto your fish. A friend of my wife has managed to retain not just one, but two tempered-glass cutting boards from the 1980s; small wonder her Wiltshire StaySharp knives won't cut through anything tougher than a wet slice of bread. (A side note to potential StaySharp buyers: A knife can't stay something it never was.)
I'll admit that I'm just as guilty: Somewhere in the cupboard to the left of my stovetop, there's a very expensive salt grinder gathering dust and ignominy. When's the last time somebody said, "All this dish needs now is a little freshly ground salt?"
Canada's kitchens are littered with useless, obsolete cooking equipment. Even many people who profess a love of food don't have the basic tools to make good cooking possible, much less pleasurable.
( Tell us: What's your most under-used/overrated kitchen gadget? Share here)
It's time to set things right.
After consulting chefs, hard-core home cooks and a cross-sampling of food geeks, we've come up with a short and somewhat-affordable list of the 16 cooking tools every home kitchen needs.
Where some of the picks seem expensive – the $140 chef's knife, the $215 saucepan – we've chosen them because they last forever and work much better than cheaper versions. We've also advised where it makes no sense to buy more expensive options; if you spend more than $35 on a stock pot, for instance, maybe also consider filling it with cash when you get it home and setting it on fire. (Another note: Don't neglect your local restaurant-supply store. They are often far cheaper and better stocked than kitchen boutiques.)
This list is not meant to be exhaustive. It assumes that most kitchens already contain the absolute bare basics, such as a cookie sheet, a casserole dish, a Joy of Cooking, measuring spoons and cups and a colander of some sort. But it's a solid starting point. And it will let you make risotto that doesn't taste like melted rubber spatula, guaranteed.
Stirrers, grabbers, flippers
Some cooks prefer wooden spoons with square bottoms, some prefer round (I'm agnostic); either way, they're cheap and 100-per-cent indispensable. Get them 10 inches or longer, and get a few. Cost: $2 each.
If your fingers haven't built up years of heat-resistant kitchen calluses, you're going to need to turn those chicken thighs and toss searing rapini some other way. (And no, you shouldn't use a dinner fork.) Get yourself a pair of long (10 inches is perfect), locking, stainless-steel tongs. You want locking because they'll stay closed in your drawer that way. $6.
There is no better flipper than a fish flipper. They're flexible enough to slide under delicate eggs, fluffy cottage-cheese pancakes and buttery sole fillets, and just wide enough so that your food doesn't droop over the sides. But the best part is the sharpened front edge: If anything's sticking, a fish spatula will free it. $4 at restaurant supply stores, $30 everywhere else.
Silicone spatulas are heat-proof to 500 F, don't go hard and crumbly with aging and are virtually indestructible. They come in pretty colours too. $12
A balloon whisk is useful for combining dry ingredients in baking recipes (I never sift flour and salt together; a quick whisking is good enough), making lump-free sauces and gravy and, yes, even beating eggs. $4.
You don't need that 16-piece knife set. All you really need is three knives.
A high-quality eight-inch chef's knife should be your kitchen workhorse. They're made for slicing, dicing, chopping, mincing and carving and even for peeling garlic (just lay the blade flat over a clove and slam it with the side of your fist). The best ones are made from a single piece of high-carbon steel that extends from the knife's tip to the end of the handle. Treat it well, and keep it well sharpened. It will live longer than you do. $140.
You need a serrated bread knife. The best one we've tried is made by Forschner and has an offset handle so that you don't scrape your knuckles on the cutting board. $24.
Also get a paring knife: short, simple, great for hulling and slicing berries, peeling, well, pears, and other finicky cutting tasks. Restaurant supply stores sell razor-sharp ones for peanuts (though you can also use them on other foods); just replace it once it's dull, after about a year. $7.
If peeling potatoes sounds to you like drudgery, that's because you don't have a Swiss Y-peeler. "Life-changing" might be overstating it, but not by much. $5.
You'll also reach for the Microplane rasp grater far more often than you would think: It zests citrus, grates nutmeg, minces ginger, turns amaretti cookies into a spectacular garnish for creamy pastas and shaves hard cheeses such as Parmesan into fluffy, ultralight wisps. $14.
And don't forget the cutting board. End-grain wood is the best, but expensive. Thick plastic boards are also excellent; they're soft on knives and easy to clean. A great size is 12 by 18 inches. Put a damp paper towel or cloth underneath to prevent it from sliding. $12.
A 16-quart stainless-steel stock pot is go-to equipment, perfect for boiling spaghetti, blanching green vegetables or cooking whole lobster. You can even make stock in it. Don't bother buying anything fancy: You're using it to boil water and thin liquids for the most part; water doesn't generally burn. $20.
Four-quart and 1½-quart saucepans are stovetop MVPs; I use mine nearly every time I cook. The four-quart size is great for everything from steaming broccoli and simmering tomato sauce to reheating soup; the one-and-a-halfer is perfect for making rice, tempering chocolate or whisking together delicate sauces. Quality is key here: A pot that is triple-ply construction (stainless steel outside, aluminum core, stainless steel inside) from the base all the way up the sides (many have only triple-ply bases; be sure to check) will heat evenly and be less prone to scorching and hot spots. It will also last a lifetime. Avoid non-metal handles; pans with those can't go in the oven. $215 (four-quart), $100 (1.5-quart)
A properly seasoned cast-iron pan browns meat and vegetables beautifully, lasts forever and, unlike many "non-stick" sauté pans, won't typically stick to food. Lodge makes excellent versions, but they're heavy enough that you think twice before hauling one onto the stove. Even better, grab an older, lighter cast-iron pan at a garage sale or antique shop: They're cheap and easy to find, and often they're perfectly seasoned. You'll be hard-pressed to spend more than $15.
The gateway appliance
Few kitchen tools can open up worlds of possibility more readily than a stand mixer. With a good mixer, you can make batter and dough for cakes, cookies, breads and pastries, beat eggs and whipping cream easily and even whip homemade marshmallows from gelatin, light corn syrup and candied sugar. Kitchen Aid stand mixers are the gold standard: They're tough, they last and there are plenty of excellent attachments available, from a pasta roller to a (very good-quality) meat grinder. Better still, the price keeps falling. It's not uncommon to find the basic model (all you need) for $200.
Cast-iron tips
When you buy a cast-iron pan, clean it with steel wool if necessary to remove any light rust, particularly if it's second-hand. Rinse the pan and dry it, then brush a film of vegetable oil inside and out with a paper towel. Finish the process on the barbecue if you have one; crank the heat, put the pan on the grate, upside down, and leave it for an hour or so. (You can also use a 250-degree oven, leaving the pan in for at least a couple hours; be prepared for a bit of smoke.)
To maintain the pan, don't use soap unless absolutely necessary; scrub it with hot water and a stiff brush or copper scrubbing pad. Dry once it's clean, and then rub with a thin film of vegetable oil. High-acid foods such as lemon juice and tomatoes are best left to stainless; the acid will pull out some of cast iron's seasoning.
For delicate foods such as pancakes, use a lower setting than you're used to (cast iron retains a lot of heat) and give the pan time to heat evenly. But for meat, burgers and greens such as sautéed rapini, let 'er rip.
After you put your meat in the hot pan, go pour a drink or something: It needs a little alone time to sear. Then it will "release" from the pan's surface, and you'll be able to turn it without sticking.

First Impressions: Blogger Carmen Huter on what surprised her about New Zealand
Carmen Huter moved to New Zealand from her native Austria to study business English, only to see the school go bust.
Surprisingly, she stayed and has since become a successful travel blogger and Instagram star, showcasing New Zealand to the world.
Now based in Auckland, the 23-year-old has also lived in Wellington and Christchurch and travels up and down the country whenever she can.
Here are five things that have surprised her most about her new homeland:
15 things no one told me about living in Wellington
15 things no one told me about living in Auckland
15 things no-one told me about living in Invercargill
Our open-mindedness
Maybe it's because we're so far away from everyone else that we have to be tolerant of, or even nice, to those around us. Or perhaps we're just enlightened. Huter still hasn't worked out just why it's the case, but she's convinced New Zealanders are world champs at being open-minded and inclusive.
Our hotchpotch food
That inclusiveness stretched to our cuisine it seems. Huter said she was surprised to find that Kiwi cuisine isn't "very particular" but rather "a little bit of everything" with influences from all over the place. Which sits fine with her. While she said you wouldn't bat an eyelid if you saw sushi in a Chinese restaurant in Austria, she's been very impressed with the authenticity of many of our eateries, whether they're focused on Europe, Asia, the Pacific Islands or elsewhere.
The startling scenery
Like most visitors to New Zealand, Huter was expecting stunning scenery. She'd seen Lord of the Rings. But what really amazed her was how different it is in different regions. She got to see the snow-capped mountains and fiordlands the silver screen had promised, but she'd never expected white sand beaches. We're certainly happy to accept her theory that the varied landscape is a reflection of our complex characters.
How well-travelled we are
Given the relatively few number of Europeans who have braved the long-haul flight to New Zealand, Huter said she was surprised how many Kiwis had travelled to her part of the world, and overseas in general. Big OEs aren't at all common among Europeans, she noted, as people tend to take short, regular breaks to other countries (usually nearby ones). While she misses being able to pop off to Italy or Spain, say, for less than your average monthly mobile bill, she believes nothing beats an extended trip that gives you the time and freedom to get to know a place properly.
The New Zealand Dream
While Huter said it's hard to get anywhere in Europe without a stellar education, she said Kiwis have a much more relaxed attitude to the notion of "required experience". She has found that people are much more willing to give others a go and that it's possible for anyone to achieve their career goals if they're willing to put in the hard graft. Even in the often competitive realm of social media, Huter said Kiwis are good sorts, always willing to help out and share ideas. All in all, New Zealand has provided her with the perfect platform for being able to live out her philosophy of "seek, do, love".

From the very start of the HOS debate and the proposed mandate of electronic logs, many people in the trucking industry have theorised that it was all a plan to get rid of the little guys. Small trucking companies and Independent owner operators felt they were being pushed out of business.
While this agenda may or may not have been the case, it looks as though, if in fact it was, it has backfired in a big way!
The push of the electronic logging devises and changes in the HOS, have hampered big business and cost manufacturers millions of dollars because they are having to pay for more trucks to move the same amount of freight due to the hours of service. This is something they are outwardly admitting.
Some say that driver pay has been reduced because the 14 hour clock does not stop once it's been started and on-time deliveries have become harder to make. We are seeing the re-powering of loads to get on-time deliveries made and more trucks sitting for their mandatory break requirement that they may or may not need. There has been an increased shortage of truck parking and the list goes on. Basically, what's happened is, all these new rules that were supposed to help, have only created more problems. And as far as the electronic logging devices, most of us have figured out by now that they have not made anybody safer and we know for a fact that they are editable, that's right, listen up here, people! ELECTRONIC LOGGING DEVICES ARE IN FACT EDITABLE! How do "I" know this? I have had the absolute pleasure of using more than one type of these devices and have figured it out! In most cases, all it takes is a phone call. They are unreliable and some of them don't even work some of the time, which costs the driver more time trying to input data that has been lost or using a paper back up. Now what's the point in that?
So is anybody profiting from all this?
Other than the obvious ones who've raked in the cash by the millions by selling fear to the ATA members, who fell for their marketing tricks, hook line and sinker, and brainwashed them into thinking EOBR's are the "safer future". There have been a few patient people, waiting in the wings to take advantage of this debacle. Who are they?
Well, let's take a look. Now this is just my opinion but it seems to me that the ATA has been contradicting their previous statements on more than one issue. Big Trucking companies are losing drivers, freight contracts and MONEY!
While some have given up, many smaller companies have been sitting back and waiting through stay after stay of what's been deemed as a death sentence for the little guy, have figured out a way to cash in! They have successfully taken some of these big money contracts away from the bull dogs of the industry because they are able to get the job done in a more efficient manner. They are getting top dollar too. Some independent owner operators and small trucking companies are contacting new customers and increasing their productivity and income while some of the big guys are literally getting their chairs pulled out from under them before they can sit down.
I can't wait to see what lies around the corner!
All I can say is, I am personally grateful to OOIDA for all the spirit, hard work and determination they have put forth to help bring the truth to light!

Kidney Shaped Desk by John Wiggers
As we've noted before, John Wiggers makes some very interesting, exotic furniture from unusual woods and highly-figured inlays. His furniture is deeply spiritual and philosophical, informed by his many travels around the globe and interactions with various aboriginal people. Wiggers has long been a proponent of healthy forests, and has been involved with the Forest Stewarship Council (FSC) on many levels, including Treasurer and Chair on the Board at FSC Canada. This commitment to responsibility, combined with his spiritual connection to his work, has led to his varied, holistic approach and his furniture's unique aesthetic. Take the Kidney Shaped Desk, for example. The intricate details, curvilinear shape and exacting dimensions of the desk are carefully proportioned to be consistent with the holistic design principles of Feng Shui and the Vastu Shastra of the ancient Vedic tradition in India. The desk is the winner of the 2005 Adex Platinum Award for design excellence, and is available for sale at Vivavi. Each one comes signed, dated and numbered by John Wiggers. ::Wiggers Furniture

Tell who? Tell what? Is anybody listening?
So many listening styles – Relational, task oriented, but…
They counterfeit the questions. It's over now…
I need you more than you thought. I need you more than I'm willing to admit.. they have me analyzing and thinking critically. They're right. Added. Tag on. They're right.
I'm thinking about you..
I'm going to get lost, ok?
I'm in the nebulas swimming the intricate galaxies. Do you see me?
No. Well, then come and see me.
Come and be One with me.. away away away. I'm sayin'

I'm getting lost because I need me. Join me- my Spirit feeds We.

You keep crossing my mind.

This weather has me sick. You took the shine from me…
I'm like a pale rock. A pebble.
I wish I was bolder. I wish I wasn't a pebble, but instead a boulder.
But I am a pebble. Run away with me..

We can see new sights. We can reach new heights
Love me. Love me stupid. Love me numb. Love love love…
that's all they ever talk about.
I'm running on empty.
They're right. They have me thinkin' critically and analytically.
They have me thinking about you.
I'm getting lost because I need me.

Good communication, car picked up, job done and returned. All good
Perfect, would highly recommend this garage and I would use them again in the future :-)
Excellent service! will definitely use again and recommend to family and friends. The work was carried out the same day at a very competitive price!!
Timing belt work carried out as agreed so happy. Car had to have bumper removed to fit timing belt, however bumper was not re-fitted correctly and had to be returned twice. However this was done with a minimum of fuss and no inconvenience to me. So i would recomend this garage and will use again.
Great job 10/10 for job..service was 100 per cent grt grt service definitely be back!
Took the car in the next day and it was straight on the lift when I dropped it off, took just under an hour. Great price would recommend 10/10.
Excellent service, nice guy, very prompt, would recommend
Got it done straight away so I'm happy
Avoid like the plague. Accepted quote on Thursday but they could not carry the work out until Monday, then Monday came and when I spoke to the same person (Ryan) they did not know anything about the job and could not arrange a pick up/drop off (as previously arranged on the Thursday) and asked me to bring car in. Hopeless!
Great service.
Repair work carried out after car failed mot delighted with price as thought it would be more expensive Steven explained and showed me exactly what needed done thank you very much this is my new repair centre well worth a visit if your having problems with your car.
Really impressed with the service, really fair pricing & everything explained brilliantly. Will be back next year!
Great service, would definitely go back
Car went in for MoT and Service and failed MoT based on brake pads and discs. I knew that the brakes were nearing their life span and Stevie and his team just confirmed it. Stevie very quickly quoted me a price for the additional work and sorted on the same day. He also noted a few advisories regarding a ball joint and window washer. Funnily enough my car was going in the day after the MoT to a Kia franchise as the ball joint was a warranty issue that I knew about but didn't say to Stevie and the team. It was a good catch from them to spot it. Also the window washer turned out to be a warranty issue and both were resolved the next day at the franchise. Stevie also picked up and delivered back my car in good time as requested. So to summarise: Very personable chap in Stevie. No talking down to you. Very clear on any issue etc. Very good workmanship. My breaks are chalk and cheese from the previous state. Good spot of advisories that Stevie didn't try to up-sell. He just pointed them out. In conclusion I will be utilising these guys for any future repairs etc and I will be recommending friends and family to do the same.
Can't recommended this garage enough. Stevie went above and beyond to make sure I got my car back asap. It ended up needing more work than we thought (my fault). They worked late to get it finished bcos of the extra work. I'll be sticking with this garage now for any future work my car needs. I'll also be recommending to family and friends.
Very pleasant and fast as a got my driver side coil done and it took and hour and half
Job done within the day and I was given a courtesy vehicle as I do not live local to garage. Job completed to a high standard and everything was explained before and after. Customer service was excellent and even though the garage is 10 miles away from me, I will use again.
Took my car in at the time I was told the staff were great fixed my car within the hour will use this garage again thank you
Excellent service .
Cannot fault these guys, best value quote courteous on the phone and work was carried out promptly and offered a free thirty day recheck on the wheel alignment to ensure everything is still ok. Will definitely use them again.
Absolutely fantastic!
Highly Recommend this garage. I Booked my car in for a Full Service and MOT. They Collected my car from my home address at at a time that suited me (9.00am) The gentleman who collected and returned the car was very pleasant and friendly. The car was returned to me at 2.00pm all washed and cleaned inside and my service book stamped and paperwork received. The gentleman that took the payment from me over the phone was also very friendly and polite. This is the best service I think I have ever received from a garage, and will definitely use them again for future services.
Fast service. Helpful and friendly staff. Would definitely use again.
They done a great job considering how difficult the job was. Really impressed and would highly recommend them to everyone will be going back
Fantastic! Job ended up being less than what was originally quoted
Excellent job and value good advice very happy with service.would recommend no problem
Happy with service would use again
They took care of the rust, sprayed some undercoating plus did a full MOT check and fixed a few other issues. My L200 now looks much happier. All of this when other garages refused to even try and fix the car. Satisfied customer.
I would recommend this garage to friends and family cheaps in town good work done.
I can honestly say, that this garage (Robert) was SO professional, courteous and prompt. I didn't actually think there were any garages left that provided this level of service. Thank you very much. My car is an old banger but Robert was still informative and realistic as to its diagnosis. Thank you very much, I wouldn't hesitate to use this garage again. AND they were by far, the cheapest quote!

Here are my observations of the most recent September transactions for Santa Clara County real estate and San Mateo County real estate. Your comments and questions are always welcome. If you see something in your neighborhood that you are curious about or have a question, please don't hesitate to share with us. If you have questions or a comment, please leave them here, or feel free to contact me through my website or send me an email.
General Market Observations and Comments -- The amount of homes (single family and condos and townhouses) available for sale continue to drift lower, continuing to advantage sellers. Levels reached are among the lowest in the last 12 years! Most areas in both counties have the characteristics of a seller's market with more than half of the closings during September had a sales price greater than a list price (59% in Santa Clara County and 50% in San Mateo County). That said, a well-priced listing has a tendency to attract more activity and multiple offers.
Which Half Are You? -- In September, it took just 13 days to sell half of the homes in Santa Clara County and only 16 days in San Mateo County! If you know of a home that has been on the market longer than the median days on market then there must be something wrong not only with the marketing strategy employed but with its condition, location, and oh yes, maybe the price. These are countywide averages.
In Santa Clara County, the fastest market is the Cupertino and Sunnyvale (zip codes 95014, 94086, 94087) market area with a median days on market of just 9 whereas the slowest is Los Gatos and Saratoga with a median days on market of 30 for those that closed escrow during the month. For San Mateo County, the fastest market area comprises the Bay Cities of Belmont, Burlingame, Millbrae, San Carlos and San Mateo with 13 and the slowest is the Coastal area of Half Moon Bay, El Granada, Moss Beach and Montara with 68.
Median Prices Increase -- Median prices of single family, condo and townhouse homes continue to march upward. For September, Santa Clara County's median price for single family residences, half above and half below or the middle transaction, increased to $649,000, compared to $598,000 the same month a year ago representing an increase of 16.2%. The median sales price for San Mateo County was $790,000.
Inventory of Available Homes for Sale Continue at Low Levels -- There were just 1,211 single family residences for sale and 257 condos/townhouse in Santa Clara County and just 598 single family residences in San Mateo County. Not record lows but each are about 55% lower than the same month a year ago.
Yahoo! HQ, Sunnyvale, CA
What's HOT and What's NOT -- In Santa Clara County, the hottest market area is Cupertino and Sunnyvale with a Days of Unsold Inventory (DUI) of 19. In San Mateo County, the hottest area is Foster City/Redwood Shores with a DUI of 20. What's not is Los Gatos/Saratoga in Santa Clara County with a DUI of 99 and the expensive areas of Menlo Park, Atherton, Portola Valley, Hillsborough and Woodside in San Mateo County with a DUI of 137.
History Repeats Itself? -- Median prices in some areas have either met or closely approached their all-time highs! Yes, you read that right. Median prices in Santa Clara County saw a bottom in place in the Spring of 2009 and have trended up since. When analyzing the different market areas in the county, we find that two fall into this category. They are: the Los Altos/Palo Alto (median price of $1,834,000) and the Cupertino/Sunnyvale (zip codes 95014, 94086 and 94087; median price of $1,049,000) market areas.
Thanks for reading! I'm Tom McEvoy, Realtor with RE/MAX Santa Clara Valley -- Let me know if you have any comments, questions, observations or any future topics you'd like me to address.

This week, Crime Stoppers needs your help in locating five fugitives wanted for drug charges.
Crime Stoppers is asking for the public's assistance in getting potentially dangerous dope dealers and drug users, along with the poisonous products they carry, off the streets. To that end, The Examiner will feature a list of five persons accused of drug-related crimes each week in High Five.

The complainant told officers that the injury possibly occurred Sunday, Oct. 23.

Phil Cannella – Phillip Cannella News: Phil Cannella is on the air every weekend broadcasting his Crash Proof Retirement Show® across the CBS network. If you tune in on a Saturday morning you can here Phil Cannella discuss his crash proof principals.
The Crash Proof Retirement Show® was not just a fancy gimmick or a means to get some marketing done. It was Phil Cannella's way of bringing some truth to the American retiree that was otherwise getting no mention on main stream media.
Once Phil Cannella had established himself as a consumer advocate and developed a foolproof way to protect retirement savings, he wondered why more people didn't know about these Crash Proof™ investments. As he discovered, the reason was that mainstream media were not reporting on these vehicles. Instead of reporting on Crash Proof™ investments that are capable of protecting savings in a market crash, the media chose to hype risky investments that claimed the biggest returns. These investments largely favored the mainstream media outlets, all of which are owned by corporations that thrive off of stock market investors.
Phil Cannella won't let anything, including mainstream media get in his way of bringing truth to the American retiree and thereby providing them with a real solution to the financial predicament that is plaguing our nation.


text: So, I'm taking the ABATE motorcycle training class soon and plan to get my endorsement soon after that. I know you don't need a bike to take the class, but I also know that once I get said MC endorsement, I'll be chomping at the bit to put it to use. In that vein, I've been searching the internet, seeing what the going rate is on bikes. I've been able to find things like this Suzuki http://indianapolis.craigslist.org/mcy/2951969715.html that, as near as I can tell, are fairly priced. But I'm a little wary of making my first bike purchase a used bike. After all, isn't that saying about used vehicles go that you're just "buying someone else's problems?" If it were a car, I wouldn't be worried, since I know how to inspect a car, and can work on them to a good extent. But bikes are pretty foreign to me. So, what's the verdict? Should I stick with a CPO or new bike from a dealer for the first one, or am I blowing it out of proportion?
