I have purchased two of these rugs. They are soft and wear well. Am planning to buy another soon.
I went to every store imaginable looking for a green rug but had no luck whatsoever. I've never purchased a rug online before because I wasn't sure if the color I choose would actually be the color I received. Well, this rug is gorgeous. The color is perfect and the darker green outline offsets it nicely. I'm thinking of getting another one.
This rug looks like the picture (not every rug we ordered did), is a very good quality rug and feels nice. It does not need a pad under it. The only downside as other people mentioned is it does shed, but we noticed if you don't wear rubber soled slippers/shoes on it the shedding is greatly decreased. I would buy this again.
The quality of the rug was surprisingly good considering the excellent price I paid . Overall very pleased with the service and can only recommend this company!

I am very happy with my purchase. I was looking for an unusual color and wanted a specific size and material. I ordered wondering what I would see when it arrived. The rug is just as advertised and fits my goals nicely. Delivery and follow up was good. I will order again from this company.
The area rug that I ordered was exactly what was ordered and was of excellent quality.
My entire experience with Rugs Direct could not have more satisfying. The rug was exactly what I was expecting. The price was fantastic. Shipping was prompt.
I found this rug locally but they said they couldn't order in a size except what they have in the store. I'm thrilled to find I can order it...and for a better price than the local store...YIPPEE! The color is exactly what I wanted. The color online is a bit duller than the one I saw "in person."
As always, I am thrilled with this rug. This is my 5th purchase from Rugs-Direct, and I have never been disappointed. The rug is actually thicker than I thought it would be and very soft. The color is beautiful. Great value for a great price!!!
I am very pleased with this rug. The color is wonderful. So nice not to be so neutral all the time. Feels good under your feet and nice and thick.
I ordered the taupe and celery colored rugs in different sizes; the taupe has a nice contrast between the border and the center, but I was very disappointed in the celery. The color was the same on the border as in the center. It did not reflect the contrast shown on-line or in the catalog photograph. It was too much of a hassle to return it.
We've had this rug for about a month. I like the size and the color is pretty much true to the picture on the website...a nice green. But, in the past couple of days I noticed that there are faint horizontel lines on the rug where it looks like the color is fading. Maybe from being rolled up during shipment? I didn't notice it before, but it does look kind of weird. I don't know, I feel like you can find a better quality rug for the same price somewhere else.
Purchased this rug for my daughter's room and I am so impressed with the quality. It is thick and soft and the color is great. It's hard to tell from the picture, but this isn't a flat green -- there are very slight striations of color throughout. I Would definitely purchase from this line again.
Price was great, the rug looked exactly as I had hoped, it was shipped quickly. A perfect shopping experience.
The area rugs I purchased for my family room are great. I placed two of them in the room, one diagonal and one straight. It really helped pull the room together. The quality is excellent. They are very thick and dense. Much nicer than I expected. I scotchguarded them so stains come right off, even with three kids, two dogs and one husband. The only issue I am having is that the "fuzz" is still coming off. I am sure it is because they are so plush. I would definately order from here again. Especi
The rug was a great choice that helps bring our living room together. The two tones of green bring out the green accents (pillows, lampshades) in our living room. The quality seems good; the rug feels durable and doesn't pill or look worn. The only complaint is that I can still, four months later, see faint lines in the rug where it had been folded. Overall, I recommend this rug.
We spent hours searching for an area rug in a granny-smith apple green for out dining room--we first tried a small one(free shipping) but didn't like it, then stopped by the showroom in virginia (close by on another trip) and picked this one--the color is close to what we wanted and the price was excellent. it has shed a few fibers, but stood up to more than 6 months of traffic well without showing dirt, etc. we would buy this again! The p;hoto shows more significant "stripey-ness" than there is

The buzz is building around what new head coach Mike Leach will bring to the Palouse and the kind of offense Washington State will possess going forward. On Monday, they added another offensive piece to the puzzle, receiving a verbal commitment from wide receiver River Cracraft (Rancho Santa Margarita, Calif./Santa Margarita).
Cracraft said Washington State's sports management program played a big role in his decision, as did his relationship with Coach Leach, inside receivers coach Eric Morris and running backs coach Jim Mastro. But the Cougars new offensive system factored in as well.
"The Air Raid offense is any wide receiver's dream," Cracraft said. "I talked to Coach Morris and he thinks I can fit in anywhere on offense--H, X, Y, Z--and they can move me around."
Cracraft battled nagging injuries last season and finished with 42 receptions for 554 yards and two touchdowns for an Eagles team that was dominant on the ground. This spring, Cracraft fought through a slight shoulder injury to serve as the primary target during 7-on-7 events.
The 6-foot, 205-pound receiver said he wasn't looking to make an early commitment, but everything felt right to do so on Monday. Now he'll look to get in touch with some of his fellow Washington State recruits, starting--as any good receiver would--with quarterback Tyler Bruggman (Phoenix/Brophy Prep).
"I definitely think Coach Leach is going to turn the program around," Cracraft said. "The coaching staff is unbelievable."
Cracraft is the seventh commitment for Washington State and the third added over the past three days.

Asolo Rep and FSU/Asolo Conservatory to Reveal 2013-14 Season, 3/18
The 2012-2013 Season may still be going strong, but the spotlight shifts to the first official announcement of the 2013-2014 Season by Asolo's own Michael Donald Edwards, Producing Artistic Director for Asolo Rep, and Greg Leaming, Associate Producing Artistic Director for Asolo Rep and Director of the FSU/Asolo Conservatory for Actor Training.

As Asolo Rep prepares to enter its 55th year as Florida's premiere professional theatre, eager arts lovers will fill the house to be the first in Sarasota to learn of the offerings.

UPI 2.0 Could Be Great for Consumers, but Bad for Many Fintech Companies
Google is set to unveil a music streaming website of its own under the YouTube brand, a report in Fortune has indicated.
According to the report, Google will unveil a music subscription service within this year. There will be an ad-supported version that anyone can listen to for free and also an ad-free option, supported by a subscription fee. Similar to Spotify and other streaming services, both options will let users listen to virtually unlimited music.
The report doesn't mention if YouTube's service will be available in select geographies like most popular streaming website or, given Google and YouTube's universal appeal, to users around the world.
The report also claims that Google may add a subscription option to its Music offering in the Play Store. Users in select countries can currently buy tracks and albums from the Play Store, and Fortune claims Google is set to add a subscription model that will unlock yet unclear "additional features".
While Google or YouTube refused to comment specifically on the Fortune story, YouTube did release the following statement: "While we don't comment on rumour or speculation, there are some content creators that think they would benefit from a subscription revenue stream in addition to ads, so we're looking at that."
The music streaming industry is already pretty crowded with the likes of Spotify, Pandora and even domestic players like Saavn and Gaana. There has been plenty of buzz around Apple entering the market as well. Having said that, many people already use YouTube for their music listening needs, and a music subscription from the world's most popular video website seems like the next logical step.

I smell salt water on your boots. You have to have somewhere to backup your games, i do believe.
I have 108 games on my 500GB USB Hard Drive, and I want to format it so I can play videos/music using wiimc. I read that to format the hard drive partition to fat32, you have to format the whole hard drive, instead of just the required partition. So I am asking if there is any way to keep my WBFS partition, and a fat32 partition without losing my games. I don't have anywhere to backup the files to.

I have 200GB of games, and the hard drive is formatted in WBFS. I don't have the money to buy another hard drive. I have a 1.5TB hard drive, but it's formatted to NTFS. Is there any way I can backup my games to that hard drive
If you try to resize your WBFS partition you are going to learn about extreme fail so don't try! You've got two options. Start over and re-rip all of your games after you've reformatted your drive to FAT32, or extract all of your current games and store them on your 1.5TB and put them back on your drive after you format it. It doesn't really make a difference format wise for temporary storage; My computer drives are EXT4 for example.
I want to move my games from my WBFS hard drive to my NTFS Hard drive, and then format my WBFS hard drive to NTFS and move the games to my newly formatted drive.

An appellate court has rejected a state prosecutor's bid to charge 12 low-level Escondido health-care workers with criminal elder abuse by using laws historically applied to nursing homes and those who run them, not to rank-and-file employees.
The dozen workers still face other misdemeanor charges related to allegations that they falsified records and neglected an elderly patient in October 2003 at a nursing home that until last year was known as SunBridge Care & Rehabilitation for Escondido-East.
All have pleaded not guilty to the charges. A trial date will be set later this month for the criminal case.
The Sept. 27 decision from the appellate court denied a request from the state Attorney General's office to reconsider a lower court decision that blocked prosecutors from using the codes to charge the 12 workers, who include licensed vocational nurses and certified nurses assistants.
The rejection is the latest development in the nearly two-year-old criminal case, a case that marked the state's first attempt at using the facility-oriented codes to go after low-level employees.
Defense attorney Benjamin Gluck, who represents one of the 12 defendants and has taken a leading role in fighting the charges, on Monday hailed the appellate court decision.
Deputy Attorney General Alan Robison said Monday that the ruling will not derail the rest of the case against the 12 workers, nor will it hamper his office in continuing to try to use the state code to prosecute other low-level workers in future cases.
Prosecutors allege the 12 workers failed such care-related tasks as turning the elderly patient often enough and giving her enough water.
The workers have denied wrongdoing.

His explanation is important, as it hits the nail on the head as to why many users are finding it easier to switch over to libre software. It all comes down to trust.

Barn dance, threshing event planned in Roberts
St. Croix Valley Collector's Association is hosting a barn dance and threshing bee event in the Roberts Village Park this weekend.
The St. Croix Valley Collector's Association is an organized group whose members collect various antique farm-related equipment and host an annual Threshing Bee.
SCVCA Vice President Joshua Sazama said the event started when Bob Bjerstadt wanted to have a 50th birthday party for his younger brother, Dick.
"For a different source of entertainment, Bob decided to pull some of their old farm equipment out of the shed and put on some equipment demonstrations," Sazama said.
The event started out as a small group of family members and close friends to the Bjerstadt family.
"The event went over so well that they invited a few neighbors the following year and eventually opened it to the public," Sazama said. "Today there are 115 active members and it's open for anyone to join the club or attend the Threshing Bee.
Sazama says threshing originated many years ago.
"As the older generations know it, neighbors would gather in the mid- to late-summer to harvest their grain (oats, barley, wheat). Threshing machines would separate the grain from the plant (today we know this machine as a combine). Since this was such a labor intensive process, it would take a big group of men to thresh hundreds of acres throughout the season. Even though it was hard work, neighbors worked together to harvest the grain, the ladies competed to prepare huge, mouthwatering meals and everyone had a strong sense of accomplishment. It brought neighbors and communities together," Sazama said.
The SCVCA Threshing Bee is always the third weekend of August. Planning for the event begins in early spring when a field is tilled and seeded into oats. Toward the end of July a grain binder is used to make grain bundles and the bundles are shocked. After the shocks dry and cure, the bundles are loaded onto wagons and used to run through the threshing machine. Planning and organizing committees for this event continue through the summer until the event.
On Saturday, Aug. 20, at 8 p.m. SCVCA hosts a Barn Dance in the park. Trigger Happy performs live country music for the dance.
"It's a great opportunity for friends, neighbors and newcomers to enjoy live music, dance and socialize. The dance is supported by donations from attendees," Sazama says.
Preparation for the threshing bee begins early Sunday morning, and threshing and exhibits start at 10 a.m. Tractors and other farm-related equipment will be on display all day. Other farm tractors and machinery are organized for demonstrations such as threshing, straw baling, corn shelling, corn shredding and a saw mill.
"The demonstrations are a great opportunity to educate attendees to learn about past farming methods used by farmers several generations ago. These methods are very important to the history of agriculture, especially in our strong, rich agricultural community," Sazama said.
Other events are a kid (pedal) tractor pull, slow tractor race, silent auction, dinner and a parade. The slow tractor race is a competition for anyone that brings an antique farm tractor to see who can get their tractor to go the slowest.
"Any children that come can enjoy the farm equipment demonstrations, kid tractor pull, homemade ice cream and the parade," said Sazama.
Mid-day Sunday there is a delicious meal. A pig is donated and roasted, sweet corn is donated and cooked, and attendees are asked to bring a dish to pass. There are many excellent dishes of food prepared and shared along with two club members' homemade ice cream. Beverages will also be available.
The parade begins around 2 p.m. Sunday. Anyone that provided equipment for display can enter it into the parade. Information about the equipment is announced as it passes in front of the announcer stand.
This event hasn't always been in Roberts.
"Typically this event is hosted on a farm near River Falls however it was decided to move the location of this event to the Roberts Village Park," said Sazama. "The Roberts Village Park is a great facility and we are able to work closely with the Lion's Club to host this event."
SCVCA appreciates the Village of Roberts and the Roberts Lions Club for helping to make the event possible, said SCVCA member Tom Lubich.
Sazama says the barn dance and threshing bee is a great event for people and families to attend.
"It's a chance to meet new people, learn more about the history of farming methods, ask friendly people agricultural-related questions, understand the importance of agriculture in the community and enjoy a fantastic home cooked meal," he said.
For more information about the event in Roberts, contact Pete Lubich at 715-425-1367 or Tom Lubich at 715-262-5807 or email firstname.lastname@example.com.

(credit:livestreamingsport.com) The Sydney Sixers play the Brisbane Heat in the opening game of the first edition of the Big Bash League. The match will be played at the Sydney Cricket Ground. Watch & bet on live Big Bash League 2011 streaming at Bet365 > live streaming > cricketThe Sixers named a solid squad to begin with but injury issues have robbed them of some of its sheen. There is no Shane Watson for this game while Patrick Cummins is ruled out of the entire tournament. There is another worry for the Sixers and it is to do with the lack of clarity around the availability of their captain Brad Haddin. Haddin is the national wicket-keeper and is under pressure to retain his place in the Australian squad after some poor batting in recent times. Coach Trevor Bayliss will have a problem deciding on the captain in case of Haddin's absence.The Brisbane Heats have no major injury concerns barring the absence of overseas player Daniel Vettori. Vettori may have to skip the entire tournament thanks to his hamstring injury that occurred during the recently concluded tour of Australia. Nathan Hauritz should lead the spin bowling attack in Vettori's absence.With James Hopes as captain of the side and Darren Lehmann as coach, the combination can be expected to dole out a gritty performance in the middle. Matthew Hayden's return to cricket will be keenly followed although it may not be easy for him to get going immediately. Brendon McCullum will open the innings for Brisbane and if he gets going with the bat, the Heats should get off to a flier. His battle at the top of the innings against Sixers' pace bowler Brett Lee could be the highlight of the game. The Sydney Sixers v Brisbane Heat Big Bash League 2011-12 game will begin at 8.00 am GMT on December 16.

WE-EF wins Red Dot Award 2015 for Design Excellence of CFT500
In addition to technological advantages, the use of LEDs also offers a completely new perspective in terms of luminaire design. The international panel of 38 judges were so impressed by the ring-shaped CFT500 LED post top luminaire series from WE-EF that they granted it the Red Dot Award 2015 for Product Design, which this year celebrates its 60th anniversary.
The experts in the panel discussed and assessed each of the 4,928 submissions from 56 countries. Only product designs showing quality and innovation were awarded prizes. WE-EF's CFT500 LED for lighting public spaces, promenades, pedestrian zones and parks was easily able to convince the judges that it merited being awarded the well-established Red Dot seal of quality.
"LED technology opens up fresh scope for new design vocabularies," according to Petra Denst, Head of Product Design at WE-EF. An excellent example of this design approach, the new CFT500 LED post top luminaire, was presented by WE-EF at Light+Building 2014.
"The minimalist, precise alignment and clear, functional contour allow for an unobtrusive, timeless design that creates a surprisingly soft impression," Petra Denst explained. The ring-shaped luminaire housing has led to the development of new LED boards. WE-EF previously used square boards for streetlighting and public space luminaires, so the new semicircle LED boards open up additional design possibilities, especially in terms of future product developments.
For more than 15 years, WE-EF has worked intensively on applying LED technology in sensible economical and ecological ways, continuously sounding out their enormous potential in terms of both technology and design. Today, the WE-EF product range is entirely tailored to LED technology.
"WE-EF develops and manufactures LED-capable luminaires by using technology that is tailor-made to suit this light source," emphasised WE-EF LEUCHTEN CEO Stephan Fritzsche, who added that "effectively cooled LED modules, optics that are adapted to suit point light sources and the use of intelligent control gear are all indispensable prerequisites for making the most of the benefits that LEDs offer when compared to conventional light sources."

The Z87H3-A2X Extreme is a top mid-range socket LGA1150 motherboard targeted for the "Haswell" processors (fourth-generation Core i3, Core i5, and Core i7 processors), coming with all the bells and whistles you can imagine, including Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, and more. Let's see what this motherboard has to offer.
The full name of this motherboard is "ECS L337 Gaming Gank Machine Z87H3-A2X Extreme." Why make it simple if you can complicate it, right?
The new Intel Z87 chipset provides two important upgrades compared to its predecessor, the Z77: six USB 3.0 ports instead of four, and six SATA-600 ports instead of only two. Another important difference between the two chipsets is where the video outputs of the motherboard are connected. While with both chipsets the video is generated by the CPU, on the Z77 the video signal was routed to the chipset, and the video outputs were connected to the chipset. On the Z87 chipset, the video outputs are connected directly to the processor. Both chipsets support up to three independent video monitors. The Z87 supports all other features provided by the Z77, such as Smart Response (installing an SSD as a cache for the main hard drive), Smart Connect (allowing the computer to receive emails and refresh webpages while it is in sleep mode), and Rapid Start (faster boot times) technologies.
You can see the ECS Z87H3-A2X Extreme motherboard in Figure 1.

I have several good recipes that call for a can or a jar of gravy (mostly beef gravy). I do not care for any of the brands of gravy I have tried and in my opinion it adversely affects the outcome of the casserole I am using it in. Do any of you have a favorite brand of beef gravy or do you know of any tricks to make it taste better or more homemade? Any help will be greatly appreciated.

Here's this weeks Blog-aroke lyrics! Care to try to figure them out? I dare you…but without the convenience of Google, of course!
Here's how it works. I give you a portion out of the song and you must guess the correct song title and artist. No googling, please! If you haven't yet thought of that, then, forget I mentioned it.
Okay, so here we go!
With pieces of the old dream
They're gonna light the old flame
Doin' what they please
Leavin every other reason behind
This one is a bit of a hard one. I'll give you a hint even! Wikipedia has this to say about our "Mystery" song!
The song hit number one on both the US and Canadian Country charts in 1988. The song is about a truck driver called Charlie who is retiring after 30 years to spend the rest of his time with his wife. The song mentions Charlie receiving a gold watch, a common retirement gift.
Well, so do you have any idea yet? Ask friends! Ask family! Then comment below when you have your answer! As always, good luck and happy Blog-aroke!

Three programs that give Grade 8 students an opportunity to engage in hand-on learning and unique out-of-classroom experiences are accepting applications for the 2016-17 school year.
Each year, the ScienceTrek, EcoQuest and Let's Lead—Nīkānētān programs bring together students from throughout Saskatoon Public Schools' elementary schools to build diverse classroom communities that focus on experience-based learning opportunities. The programs are open to any Saskatoon Public Schools' student who will be in Grade 8 beginning in September 2016, however students must apply to be a part of the programs.
The EcoQuest program is based out of City Park School, but its mobile classroom approach to education allows students to experience everyday adventures while learning in urban and wilderness settings. Learning experiences are based on seasons, student ability and the focus of study, where the places visited by students become the teacher, and the experiences and personal relationships form the content. Ecoquest challenges students to strengthen their social and academic skills, and this intensive experience will most benefit students who thrive on actively participating in the world around them. EcoQuest applications are due April 8.
The ScienceTrek program combines hands-on science opportunities with outdoor pursuits to create an exciting learning environment. Based at Montgomery School, ScienceTrek is a field-based science program created to inspire Grade 8 students to grow academically, socially, personally and culturally. Students make their own trek to attend this program which blends hands-on science activities with outdoor excursions. Students in the program share an interest and passion for science and will have opportunities to work with science professionals and experts within the scientific community.
All Grade 7 classrooms will be visited by the program in early March and a ScienceTrek open house is scheduled for Monday, March 21, 7 p.m. at Montgomery School. Applications are due April 8.
Through experiential education, students in Let's Lead—Nīkānētān plan for their future by developing leadership and teamwork skills in a culturally responsive way, thereby enriching their lives and our community. Based at Westmount Community School, Let's Lead—Nīkānētān is a full-year program for students who want to spend their entire year learning the curriculum through hands-on, out-of-school experiences while building their leadership and teamwork skills. The program is particularly geared toward students who have leadership potential, but who may not have been able to realize or develop it due to financial barriers.
All Grade 7 classrooms in Saskatoon Public Schools will be visited during April by Let's Lead – Nīkānētān staff to answer questions and explain the program in detail. A family information evening will be held at Westmount Community School on Tuesday, May 3, at 7 p.m. Applications are due May 6.
More information on ScienceTrek, Let's Lead—Nīkānētān and EcoQuest and other unique learning opportunities in Saskatoon Public Schools in available in our Unique Programs Handbook.

ConcertFestival Hall
RACHMANINOV'S Third Piano Concerto — aka the Rach 3 — is famously difficult to perform. The pianist is under huge pressure to deliver a piece of theatre worthy of the now dubiously immortal pianist David Helfgott, as portrayed in the film Shine. Concert programmings of the work will stipulate that the pianist "be so overcome by the music that he slips off the piano stool into a pool of his own sweat, nearly dying of nervous exhaustion, thereafter spending innumerable years in a psychiatric hospital".
Well the sturdy young Muscovite Boris Berezovsky seemed to be having none of that as he strode up to the Festival Hall's Steinway last Friday night and scowled at it as though he intended to kill it. The audience was…

Maintenance Training into the 21st Century
EP Editorial Staff | April 1, 1997
Old tried-and-true training methods often fail to achieve the desired results in today's maintenance and reliability improvement environment. Much has changed in recent years because of workforce in transition, skills shortages, new equipment technologies, downsizing, and cost cutting. The next logical step is to fundamentally rethink our training approaches. Accelerating the maintenance and reliability learning process is essential for the success of modern industry.
New and renewed organizations often include a smaller workforce, fewer, if any, middle managers, new job designs, overhauled compensation and reward programs, delegated responsibilities, empowered work groups, and a relentless focus on results. Many of the old ways of working have changed, often not by choice but rather out of the need to survive in a new world order, and in a new work order. In this new work order, training methods must be transformed by taking into account how adults best learn, how to accelerate the learning process, how equipment works, and how to improve performance.
Here are four steps to improving training and learning effectiveness and efficiency.
First, adults learn best through applied learning methods that are immediately applicable to their needs and interests. Classroom or large group training classes are the most ineffective and inefficient ways for adults to learn. In general, every person in today's job roles has different learning needs. Although adults may require the same skills, they enter the learning environment with vastly different experiences, aptitudes, and abilities. Here are a few key points to help adults learn maintenance and reliability improvement skills:
- Focus on the needs of the individual and the needs of the business and the equipment or process. Adults learn what they want to learn.
- Involve the employees in developing the learning content and approach. Buying training in a can and delivering it does not work.
Second, the learning process must become more efficient and more effective than in the past. With many training methods and learning technologies available there is no need to stick with one method or format of training media. The media must fit the subject matter and the learner and also must be applied in the right setting, where learning will be most effective. Here are a few hints:
- Match the subject matter and the training method with the media and the subject being taught. For example, teach coupling alignment or bolt tightening with a brief video, followed by a hands-on demonstration and practice until each person demonstrates proficiency. Discuss and demonstrate related information such as proper tool selection, safety, record keeping, applicable company procedures, and the results of doing or not doing the task correctly.
- Do not use a video program by itself to train an employee and then send the learner into the workplace "trained" to perform the task correctly. This method is highly ineffective and dangerous.
- Some tasks are best taught one on one in the plant on the equipment. However, avoid an informal buddy method.
Third, the more employees understand about how the equipment and processes work the easier their jobs become. Quite often, such knowledge is withheld from personnel who operate and maintain the equipment in an attempt to keep jobs simple. Many businesses have learned the power of engaging people with manufacturing and equipment processes. Learning how to maintain, repair, troubleshoot, and improve equipment is accelerated if people know how and why equipment does what it is supposed to do.
Fourth, all learning must focus on measurable results in the workplace. Improved performance of the individual and the equipment is possible within a few hours or days of completing training. Training focused on the needs of the plant, equipment, and process as well as the needs of the individual employees becomes highly effective. Focusing on equipment performance problems heightens return on the training/learning investment.
Training for the sake of training or training in general subjects rarely leads to a sizable and sustained return on the investment.
By following these steps to improving training and learning effectiveness, employers and employees will find that training is no longer a cost but rather an investment in improving equipment effectiveness and process reliability. MT

" Brand: Uncle Ben's / Type: Rice "
* Prices may differ from that shown
I work from various sites and don't have much time to make lunch in advance for work everyday. I'm not one for cheating at something as simple and straightforward as rice BUT this product really does lend itself to a quick tasty, warm meal while at work when you don't have much time.
I tend to buy with it John West Seared Tuna fillets - found in the tuna aisle. The rice takes two minutes in the mike and the tuna takes 30 seconds - making them perfect for each other! And will always get "ooh that looks tasty and healthy" from your colleagues.
So, the rice, it comes in packets with enough rice in for two reasonable portions but I often want more. It's vacuum packed, so you have to remember to squish the bag up before tearing it a little and putting it in the microwave.
The bags themselves get really hot, obviously, so the only criticism I have is that when you tear the bag right across it always gets a bit fiddley at the end and you end up battling with a hot bag with little bits of rice dropping out while trying to finish the tear.
The rice tastes fine, it's a really reliable quick addition to your meal. The other flavours are ok, other people I know like them, but I prefer the plain rices myself.
I do sometimes end up throwing some away so think the bags could be smaller/cheaper, but you can plan to share or fridge it. Not sure about reheating it twice though.
Look out for deals on this rice, quite often you will find it going for £1 (co-op, ASDA) - at full price it's quite costly given what it is and how much it would cost to make from scratch, but as I said, it's a really handy thing if you're strapped for time, cooking utilities but want something reasonably healthy and filling halfway through your working day.
Rice is one of those kitchen cupboard essentials that I always make sure I have a stock of. Rice can go with a variety of different dishes, both hot and cold. Now there are many different types of rice and different brands. But long grain rice is one of the most popular and Uncle Bens is one of the leading brands. You can purchase Uncle Ben's long grain rice in a variety of forms including loose, express and boil in the bag. Now the one thing that I hate about rice is that it seems to get everywhere when cooking it, not only does some stick to the pan it also sticks to the serving spoon and some always seems to escape somewhere in the kitchen. So this is the main reason that I purchase the boil in the bag rice as it keeps it all enclosed during cooking.
The only downside to Uncle Bens rice is the cost as compared to the supermarkets own brand rices it can be rather more expensive. But to me it is a great quality and tasting rice so I always look out for it being on special offer and stock up when it is. You can purchase the rice in boxes that contain different sized bags, one that has 8 x 62.5g currently for £2.76 (currently buy one get one free) at Tesco or a box that contains 2 x 125g bags for £1.75. I tend to purchase the boxes of 62.5g bags as I find each bag provides just the correct amount for one adults serving.
The rice comes in special bags that you boil the rice in. These bags are waxy feeling, transparent plastic bags that have holes in to allow the water to drain from the bag when the rice is cooked. The bag also has other features including a loop at the top to allow you to lift the bag out of the boiling water with a fork so you do not need to touch it and also a cold corner of the bag so you can hold it as soon as it comes out of the water to stop you burning your fingers. There is also a pre-cut 'v' at the top just to the side of the corner of the bag to allow you to tear the bag easily to remove the rice.
Cooking the rice is very easy indeed you just need to follow the simple illustrated instructions on the back of the box:
1. Bring a large pan of water to the boil.
2. Add the required number of bags of rice to the pan and simmer for 10 minutes.
3. Remove the bag with a fork and hold over the pan for a few second to allow the water to drain from the holes in the bag.
4. Tear open the bag at the pre-cut 'v'.
5. Serve and enjoy.
This for me has always produced perfectly cooked rice. The bag also means that there is no rice left to stick in the pan and no rice escaping anywhere.
As far as the taste and texture goes in my opinion this is the best cook at home long grain rice that I have tried. I find that compared too many of the rice's I have tried this one cooks beautifully well and is never too starchy and soggy or too hard. Some rice's I have tried have been very sticky and seem to stick to the inside of your mouth but this one is very nice to eat and not at all sticky. It also has a lovely clean fresh taste to it and goes well with so many dishes including sweet and sour, curry, stuffed peppers etc. You can also use this rice to make lovely fresh rice salads from so it is very versatile.
Overall in my opinion this is great rice and one that I will continue to buy time and time again it is just a shame that it is so expensive!
Normally this is the sort of product that I would laugh at for being ridiculous and unnecessary. Rice in a bag? But you can just boil it up yourself, it's not exactly rocket science! However, my other half seems to have real issues with cooking rice correctly and he has resorted to buying these Uncle Ben Express rice packs. They can be found in most supermarkets and the Long Grain Rice variety cost £1.42 for a 250g pouch from Tesco.
The rice is part of the Uncle Ben's range which includes many different varieties of easy cook rice, along with pre-made cooking sauces. The rice comes in a compact plastic pouch weighing in at 250g which is just right for 2 portions. The bright orange packaging certainly makes it stand out on the shelf and you can tell straight away that it is made by Uncle Ben's. I haven't used any of these products before as I prefer to cook my own rice, but I decided to give this a go one day when I was very pushed for time and feeling poorly so I couldn't be bothered to cook anything more involved than opening a packet.
Product description: "Uncle Ben's has steamed this long grain rice for maximum freshness and flavour. Perfect every time. No artificial colours, flavours or preservatives."
With Uncle Ben's Express Rice you can choose from many different types of rice and some have special flavours such as Mexican or egg fried rice. I used the basic Long Grain Rice and was actually very glad of having such a basic and easy to prepare item in the store cupboard. The selling point here is that the rice has already been steam cooked, so to prepare it yourself you only need to open the packet and bung it in the microwave for a few minutes. It really is that simple, as laid out in the cooking instructions below...
Directions: Store in a cool dry place. Once opened refrigerate unheated rice for up to 3 days.
How to prepare:
1/ Squeeze the pouch to separate the rice.
2/ Tear a 2cm opening to vent.
3/ Heat for 2 minutes at 700W.
Cooking instructions for pan: Boil 30ml of water. Add contents of pouch, cover and simmer for 3 minutes.
Unfortunately I hadn't quite read the instructions correctly, and after squeezing the pouch to separate the rice I tore off the entire top strip of the packet rather than just opening a smaller slit to allow any steam to escape. After I got it out of the microwave it seemed to have cooked through nicely anyway, and although it looked plain and not hugely appealing, it is only rice and rice never looks that exciting!
The rice had a nice moist feel to it which I was pleasantly surprised by, as a lot of the time when I have had ready meals or reheated rice using the microwave the rice has come out rather dry. I expect that as the rice has already been steam cooked and there is a small amount of oil and orange juice listed in the ingredients, this may have helped the rice to retain its moisture and avoid drying out in the microwave. The taste was as I expected, quite bland but I don't usually pick long grain rice as I prefer the more fragrant type such as basmati. To add a bit more interest and make it taste nicer I added some dark soy sauce which is one of my favourite cooking ingredients. After this the rice had a more lively flavour and I munched my way through the whole 250g amount of it rather than splitting it into two portions as recommended. I think that the texture and moist feeling of this Express rice is lovely, and it was certainly a very easy thing to prepare. The pouch was handy and created no mess at all so there wasn't even any clearing up to do afterwards. The only thing which wasn't quite to my liking was the plain taste, but this can be made more to my liking by the addition of spices, flavourings or sauces after cooking.
I think this is a helpful product if you are really pushed for time, or if you have problems cooking rice without turning it to mush. It was extremely easy to prepare and I was grateful for such a simple way of cooking this rice as rice is one of my favourite comfort foods and I always eat it when I'm feeling unwell, and don't feel like making too much effort cooking. I would recommend this Express rice, and would consider buying it again but looking at one of the different flavour varieties such as the egg fried rice or basmati rice.

When I'm cooking with rice there is only one for me and it has to be of course.....Uncle Ben's long grain rice, not the ones in the pre packed bag but the loose kind.
Uncle Ben's rice is the only food Item I always keep stocked in my kitchen purely because you can do a lot with rice whether it's a dinner or desert.
If your budgeting you can stretch it out with rice on a number of dinner idea's or if you want to impress by cooking a banquet then this rice will still do the trick, for all you novice cooks out there it is probably the easiest thing to cook because everyone knows how to cook rice, once it's soft enough for you to eat then its done....just make sure it's not crunching and you will be fine.
A quick thing I have to say if your not too sure if you can cook, well I'm going to say to you what was said to me..."if you can read you can cook".
The box is identifiable with its famous orange colour with Uncle Ben's name in Blue across the top with a wok filled mainly with rice and also some vegetables in the background, then to the left is a fork with rice on it like its about to be eaten.
And just under the fork is "10 Minutes" on a blue background (just so you can see it takes only 10 minutes to cook), right at the bottom it tells you "An Adults Guidline Daily Amount"
which is:
Kcal 215
Sugars 0.3g
Fat 0.8g
Saturates 0g
Salt 0g
They come in (as I have seen) 3 sizes
on the side of the box you see like a little tab that opens up to make it easier to pour.

The taste I find can vary depending on what I am making, for example, if I'm making a steak and rice I find that after I season it and flavour it I find it more sterner than if I was making rice for a curry which is more softer and creamier just as creamy as if you were making rice pudding.
The rice is a small hard grain that is slightly yellow in colour but as it boils away it doubles in size and takes on a white colouring which now looks more desirable.
There are 2 ways you can cook rice, either in the microwave (which I can find a bit rubbery) and on the stove which is always the preferred way.
This is my method to cooking basic rice
Fill up your kettle and put it on to boil, when that's done take out your saucepan place it on the cooker and turn it on.
pour the boiling water from the kettle into the saucepan add salt and add the Rice.
After about 10 minutes take it off the stove and drain the water out of the rice, should be nice and soft but not so soft as to become like mash.
the box says for every amount of rice you use add exactly double for the water amount, but to be honest even if you use a little amount of rice and a lot of water as long as you remove it around the 10 minute mark you should be ok.
if you like it harder take it off earlier or if you like it softer then leave it longer, just keep tasting it till its at your desired level.
Uncle Ben's is probably the only rice I know to not stick together or be too starchy.
So if your going to use rice you
can't really go anywhere else.
I'm a bit like Gordon Ramsay in the kitchen, the bit that swears and stomps around a lot... Unfortunately that's were any similarities end. I do enjoy my food though, therefore I have to cook, but the reality is that I try to keep things simple when and where I can.
Uncle Ben's long grain rice allows me that luxury. It even says on the front of the packet "Perfect Every Time" and it's really true. This rice has never let me down. Apparently, every single grain is carefully selected. What an exciting job that must be!
I purchased the 250g pack, which is "Boil In The Bag" (I did say that I liked to keep things simple) 2 x 125g sachets. There are easy to follow instructions on the back of the packet with little pictures to make it completely idiot proof.
Step 1
Bring a large amount of water to the boil
Step 2
Add bag (And salt if required) and simmer for 10 mins
Step 3
Remove bag and drain well
Step 4
Tear open bag at pre cut V
Step 5
Serve and enjoy.
Simples! With excellent results every time this is perfect for me. Light fluffy rice that never sticks in just 10 minutes. No wonder Uncle Ben looks so self satisfied on the front of the packet, in my opinion he really is the governor when it comes to rice.
Available at all the usual outlets at a price of approx £1.80. Apparently Tesco are selling packs of 8 x 62.5g bags at £1.48 at the moment, which sounds like great value.
I love rice and have it really very often. I don't know about anyone else but I find it really hard to cook and to get to perfection each and every time. My prefeered brand is this one cos I can get perfection every time I cook it with hardly any effort at all which suits me just fine lol!
The Packaging:
This is available in either a 250g price (which costs about £1.61 a box) and in a pouch or as I always purchase it in a 500g box (which costs around £1.93) and of course it is available in other varieities such as Chinese style rice, Wholgrain and Pilau.
The Packaging:
Whether you buy this in the pouch or box they look the same in the way of there colour scheme and information listed. The pouch is plastic and easy to open and close and stuff. However I mainly purchase the box as I like the bigger size! So on the box is orange and has an easy pull out spout to the side of it. On the front there is a photogoraph of the rice and then I'm told that it is Uncle Ben's 'Perfect Every Time' Long Grain Rice that cooks in 10 minutes and that it's superior quality and never sticks and there is an at a glance nutritional chart and the size is stated to the bottom of the box. Other information on the box includes being told a bit about the product, instructions on how to cook it, nutritional information is given, contact details for Uncles Bens is listed and up one side of the box there is a guide to how much rice you need per person with little windows.
To Cook It:
Bring a large amoiunt of water to the boil in a large pan pour in desired amount of rice. cover the pan and cook for 10 minutes and drain well.
The Rice:
Small and translucent and a sort of beige in colour this is so easy to cook! I add as much rice as I think I need to a pan of water and each and every time I get perfect rice! Basically to cook this you need one part rice to two parts of rice and in my view it is important to add salt to this to bring out the grains flavour.
When cooked it goes to brilliant white looking unstodgy rice with no slime (so rinsing in my opinion is optional though I always do with freshly boiled water). It never clumps up or goes gloopy and never are there tough bits of uncooked rice in it! I like the way that the rice stays al dente, doesn't go to mush and keeps very seperate. Great to add as accompient to meals of any type but I like to add it to Oriental dishes such as stir fries and things like that and it is very versatlie indeed.
Excellent quality every time with no fuss and in quick time! What is there to not like about it, it's superb!
Available in all good supermarkets etc.

Another trip into the Boxengeti, with one piece I have had finished for a few weeks and a set I finished this week. Both use a technique in which a blind bracket is combined with some peg hooks to create an animal. I talk about the overall process in this post.
First the Zebra:
Besides the obvious difference in painting, there are a few other things I did differently, in a more zebraesque (Note: I will use this made-up word two more times in the paragraph) manner. First of all, there was much more cutting of the hooks involved in this one to get it to more of a zebraesque scale. Secondly, I wanted a more zebraesque head, with the upper head made from a rubber stopper and the lower from a metal bit. I cut the ears out of tin and folded them over. The mane is in fact a piece of discarded velcro.
I also made another set of giraffes, and as I described the process will just let the picture do the talking:
"Boxille Zebra" is available for an adoption fee of $135 while the Boxille Set of Mama and Baby Giraffe is available for $250 total. Contact me with any questions, and feel free to check out other available animal assemblages here.

Now, THIS is how you debut a post baby body
Mother-of-two Jessica Simpson is proudly showing off the fruits of her fitness labour.
The billionaire clothing designer is the face of Weight Watchers and smoulders in the latest images of her campaign.
The weight loss company posted a behind the scenes image of the singer on their Instagram account, which sees Jessica posing in a fitted white dress and confidently posing for the camera.
Jessica recently told People magazine that she is back to her pre-pregnancy weight with the help of the diet programme.
She insisted she lost 50lbs since her baby girl Maxwell was born.
The starlet is currently engaged to American football player Eric Johnson.
She hopes to fit into her dream wedding dress as the happy couple plan to wed this year after dating since 2010.
The singer said the upcoming nuptials have been a huge motivation for the weight loss.
''The new year will definitely bring on the wedding bells, which is exciting … I think it's about time.
''Knowing that I have the wedding coming up is an incentive to stay on WeightWatchers, count my points and stay in the gym. I mean, when you see my dress, you'll know,'' she told the magazine.

RICHMOND — A Richmond man pointed his gun at a woman and pulled the trigger twice, but the loaded weapon did not fire, police said Thursday.
Odafe Omadhebo has been arrested on suspicion of assault with a deadly weapon for the incident on Wednesday inside his home on the 3700 block of Esmond Avenue, Richmond spokeswoman Sgt. Nicole Abetkov said.
Police have not released his motive, but said Omadhebo tried to fire his gun twice at a woman at around 1:15 p.m. The woman then called police. Omadhebo was later arrested when he returned home, and officers found a loaded handgun in his car, Abetkov said.
The man may be friends with the woman's daughter, authorities said.

Two insurgent attacks north of Baghdad killed seven Iraqi security members and anti-al-Qaida fighters on Friday, officials said.
Police officials said the first attack took place when gunmen opened fire on a group of so-called Sahwa fighters manning a checkpoint near the town of Dujail, 50 miles (80 kilometers) north of the Iraqi capital. Hours later, a roadside bomb exploded on a police patrol in Muqdadiyah, 60 miles (90 kilometers) north of Baghdad. Three policemen were killed and two were wounded in that blast, the officials said.
Two medics confirmed the casualties. All officials spoke on condition of anonymity because they were not authorized to talk to the media.
The Sahwa are Sunni Arabs who joined forces with the U.S. military to fight al-Qaida's Iraq branch at the height of the country's insurgency. They have since been regularly targeted by Sunni insurgents who seem them as traitors.
Violence has ebbed in Iraq, but deadly attacks against security forces are still common.

Chinese satellite navigation officials say they intend to field an operational system covering all of Asia by 2010, but they are giving few details on the deployment plans for their global system. In addition China has yet to complete frequency coordination with the United States, Europe, Russia and others.
In presentations April 23 here at the Toulouse Space Show, these Chinese officials nonetheless said their global Compass/Beidou system would be fully compatible with the U.S. GPS, European Galileo and Russian Glonass global navigation constellations.
Like GPS, Galileo and Glonass, Beidou/Compass would be free of direct user charges but also feature an encrypted signal for authorized users only, presumably including the Chinese military.
Chengqi Ran, vice director of the China Satellite Navigation Project Center, said the secure Beidou/Compass signal would be "a highly reliable signal dedicated to complex situations."
Beidou/Compass is designed to feature five satellites in geostationary orbit and 30 satellites in medium Earth orbit. Ran and Xiaohan Liao, a deputy director at China's Ministry of Science and Technology, said the first of the medium Earth orbit satellites, launched in April 2007, is functioning well but is still the subject of in-orbit validation.
Liao said China intends to operate a Wide Area Precise Pointing system using geostationary satellites. China operates three Beidou/Compass satellites in geostationary orbit. Liao said the wide-area coverage, to include all of Asia, should be in operation by 2010.
Liao said China wants to ensure that the growing population of GPS users in China will have a smooth transition from GPS-only devices to devices that receive both GPS and Beidou/Compass signals. He said the market for GPS gear in China is expected to reach around $5 billion in 2010.
China's intentions for Beidou/Compass remain a subject of concern in the United States, Europe, Russia and Japan, according to government officials representing those countries at the Toulouse Space Show.
China's plans for an Asian regional system are the most immediate concern to Japanese authorities, who are developing their own regional system, called the Quazi Zenith Satellite System, because its three satellites will be in a highly elliptical orbit whose apogee will be over Japan and Asia.
Satoshi Kogure, associate senior engineer at the Japan Aerospace Exploration Japanese Agency, said some in Japan fear the Chinese system and think "this is an important issue for Japanese national security."
Kogure said China and Japan have had few, if any, talks about their respective systems, although both nations are members of the International Committee on Global Navigation Satellite Systems. This committee is next scheduled to meet in December in Pasadena, Calif.
"All the [satellite system] provider nations have agreed in principle" to seek maximum compatibility and interoperability among the different systems to permit users to take maximum benefit from the proliferation of satellites now planned, said Anthony Russo, deputy director of the U.S. National Coordination Office for Space-based Positioning, Navigation and Timing. "But a lot of details still need to be worked."
Europe's Galileo managers are actively seeking Chinese clarification on plans for Beidou/Compass so European engineers can freeze their plans for the signal structure of Galileo this year, when contracts for the satellites are scheduled to be signed.
"Our position with the Chinese is that we need to make sure we all have the same understanding of the problem," said Paul Verhoef, head of the Galileo unit at the European Commission, which is financing Galileo's development. "It has taken the Chinese awhile for them to realize that it is in their interest to [coordinate signals and other compatibility issues] if they want to be in this community of providers."
Verhoef noted that when the U.S., Russian, Chinese and European medium Earth navigations are added together, there could be 120 operational navigation satellites in medium Earth orbit by the middle of the next decade plus the three Japanese elliptical satellites.

If you want to go from Miami to Key West you essentially have only two practical options. You can either take a Miami to Key West guided coach bus which provides door-to-door service from your hotel or you can get a Miami car rental and drive down yourself. Of course, you can also get there by air and sea as well, but these last two options tend to be costly and less enjoyable as you will likely miss out most of the amazing sights offered when traveling by land.
Each option has its advantages and disadvantages. The Miami to Key West bus tour option is more economical if you are traveling in a group of four or less people. Additionally, the Miami to Key West bus tour allows you to enjoy the ride down without the stress and danger of having to drive yourself. On the other hand, if you are a group of four or more, it might make more sense to simply rent a car. The cost of sharing a car rental may be lower than the cost of taking a tour from Miami to Key West for groups of four or more. Additionally, the freedom of driving a rental car from Miami is undeniable, as you can stop and go as you like. Nonetheless, don't forget to add in the additional costs of fuel, parking, and liability insurance.
Key West is an island in the Straits of Florida on the North American continent, at the southernmost point and tip of the Florida Keys. The island is just over 90 miles from Cuba. The distance from Miami to Key West is 168 miles. By car, it will take approximately 3 hours and 21 minutes to travel this distance. By taking a bus from Miami to Key West, you will increase your travel time by about 30 minutes, or roughly, a total trip time to Key West from Miami of 3 hours and 51 minutes. Which isn't really that bad when you consider it would take you 52 hours to walk there, and about 14 hours to ride a bicycle. Obviously, there are different advantages to each mode of transportation, but the most popular forms of transportation to Key West from Miami being by car and by bus. No matter which way you choose to visit Key West, our team is here to give you all your options. It is likely that if you are looking for a carefree and economical way to get from Miami to Key West, direct non-stop bus service is probably your safest option.

Just in time for ALA's Banned Books Week later this month, Daily Kos just gave us a tip about the TIME magazine article on Presidential VP nominee Sarah Palin and how she tried to fire librarian Mary Ellen Baker for not banning questionable books.
Stein says that as mayor, Palin continued to inject religious beliefs into her policy at times. "She asked the library how she could go about banning books," he says, because some voters thought they had inappropriate language in them. "The librarian was aghast." That woman, Mary Ellen Baker, couldn't be reached for comment, but news reports from the time show that Palin had threatened to fire Baker for not giving "full support" to the mayor.
Over at Librarian.net, one of the commenters listed the books Palin tried to ban from the library including such literary gems as:
A Wrinkle in Time by Madeleine L'Engle
Brave New World by Aldous Huxley
Catch-22 by Joseph Heller
Anything by Stephen King
Everything by J.K. Rowling
Most of William Shakespeare's work
and my personal favorite
Webster's Ninth New Collegiate Dictionary by the Merriam-Webster Editorial Staff
Maybe if she didn't want to ban Our Bodies, Ourselves by Boston Women's Health Collective her daughter Bristol wouldn't be having a shotgun wedding.

American manufacturing is dead, right?
Not exactly.
American manufacturers are still successful, but that success has come at a cost — the number of manufacturing jobs in this country has collapsed as factories replace workers with machines.
Adam Davidson of Planet Money traveled to Greenville, South Carolina to answer the question: what is the state of the low skilled American worker? He wrote about that experience for The Atlantic Monthly.
Davidson will join Kerri along with Larry Sills, chairman and CEO of Standard Motor Products to talk about American jobs and American manufacturing.

The biggest story in the world right now is the ongoing war in southern Israel, with Israel bombing sites in Gaza, and Hamas firing rockets into Israel. By last night every network had the time to send people to the region, and that was reflected in TV coverage.
CNN: CNN had by far the most coverage of the conflict, dedicating just about every segment in every hour from 7-11PM to the conflict. Much of the reporting was done from the region, including Anderson Cooper in Gaza. The only exception was 9 PM's "Piers Morgan Tonight," which secured an important "get," an interview with Israel's President, Shimon Peres.
Fox News: FNC had less reporting from Israel and Gaza last night than CNN had, but still dedicated more time to the conflict than any other story. It was the lead story and the closing story on "Fox Report," at 7 PM, and took up the first 20 minutes of 10 PM's "On the Record." That said, "The O'Reilly Factor" did not cover the conflict at all, instead featuring a segment on Mitt Romney, a segment on Libya and Dennis Miller talking about Twinkies. At 9 PM "Hannity" dedicated the first half-hour of his program to the conflict, though the bulk of the time was a talking head panel. That said, the 9 PM hour led off with a report from David Lee Miller in southern Israel.
MSNBC: MSNBC had by far the least coverage of the conflict, choosing to cover politics instead. The Nation's Greg Mitchell takes the network to task for its lack of coverage, and a quick check of TVEyes confirmed that the network only had about 15 minutes of coverage between 7 PM and 11 PM, mostly in two brief segments on "Hardball," and at the top of 9 PM's "Rachel Maddow." At 8 PM and 10 PM, "The Ed Show" and "The Last Word" did not mention the conflict once. Stories they did cover included Paul Ryan, the 2016 election campaign (gah!) and, yes Twinkies.

Where to toast New York and the military, find cocktail camaraderie during San Diego's LGBT Pride weekend.
Everyone will be here, here or here: Right up in the thick of things in gay-friendly Hillcrest, there's Fiesta Cantina (142 University Ave.; (619) 298-2500), a thatched-roof bar that feels like it's beach-side. Across the street, there's Urban Mo's (308 University Ave.; (619) 491-0400), a drink-and-food compound and perhaps the No. 1 place to be seen with your shirt off year-round. Up the street, stumble to that giant club Rich's (1051 University Ave.; (619) 295-2195).
Places to escape everyone: OK, there's no real escape. But Pecs Bar (2046 University Ave., North Park; (619) 296-0889) is a little jukebox gem slightly removed from the Festival scene and rated one of America's top 50 gay bars by Logo. For views from up above, try the rooftop lounge at Top of the Park (Inn at the Park, 525 Spruce St., Bankers Hill; (619) 296-0057) or the second-floor outdoor patio at Martinis Above Fourth (3940 Fourth Ave., Hillcrest; (619) 400-4500).
More LGBT-friendly destinations? Ask someone cute to point you toward: Baja Betty's (great for group eats, big drinks), Bourbon Street (lady friendly), The Brass Rail (the oldest bar in Hillcrest, has a great dance floor), Eden (a party complex), The Flame, Flick's, Gossip Grill (chick bar, with food), The Loft, R Gang Eatery, Numbers or Voyou (a wine bar that has a new "cocktails" sign).
Then, of course, there's the Festival in Balboa Park: See the beer garden, where good times abound. Click here for more info on our big party. sdpride.org
Correction: This article originally suggested Bacchus House as a pit stop, but it's closed.
