On your question 2… Not sure I'm right on this, but as a WP and Enfold 'newbie' I've been playing with sidebars and footers.
In the Dashboard, go to Appearance | Widgets
On the right hand side of the screen, at the bottom, create a new Enfold Custom Widget Area and name it 'Testimonials'
Once it's created, click on the arrow at the right edge of the 'Testimonials' widget name bar to open up the widget area.
From the main 'Available Widgets' list, drag 'Text: Arbitrary text or HTML' widget into 'Testimonials'.
Then, in the pop-up text box, just type in the title and text to create a reusable custom widget which you can use in your sidebar (or anywhere else).October 6, 2013 at 5:39 pm #171227
1) In WordPress dashboard you should go to Posts > Add New to add new blog posts http://i.imgur.com/WpHuXAo.jpg
2) You should go to edit page and click on "Default Editor" and you will see a magic wand http://i.imgur.com/FePn7St.jpg and add Testimonial element under Content Elements. Then copy that shortcode and go to Appearance > Widgets, and to your sidebar widgets, add a Text Widget and paste your shortcode into that Text Widget.
3) You can try some plugins for that one
Best regards,
YigitOctober 7, 2013 at 8:04 pm #171816
How do you get your default editor to show what you already made using Avia layout builder?

SUMMARY:A deaf toddler received an innovative device implanted at the base of his brainstem, allowing him to hear his father's voice for the first time. A video of the touching moment has gone viral.
A toddler who has suffered through terrible health problems recently received an incredible gift. Little Greyson Clamp, deaf since birth, can now hear because of a remarkable and groundbreaking operation. An amazing video captured the moment when Greyson got to hear his father's voice for the first time.
NBC News reports on the journey of three-year-old Greyson, who endured open heart surgery when he was just a month old, went blind in one eye, and still suffers congenital deafness.
Greyson's adoptive parents enrolled him in a clinical trial of a new treatment for deafness called an auditory brainstem implant. The implant is already being used successfully in adults, but Greyson is the first deaf toddler to receive the device.
After the implant operation, Greyson heard his father's voice for the first time. A video capturing the moment (which is going viral on YouTube) shows the little boy's head jerk up and his eyes open wide in surprise. Greyson's father, Ethan Clamp, was standing behind his son at the time. "Daddy loves you," Ethan said. After a moment, Greyson smiled and pointed in excitement.
Doctors hope that this implant will work well for children because their brains are still plastic enough to be able to adapt to changing signals. That has certainly been the case for Greyson, his parents say. The little boy shows no fear of the new sensory information. He exhibits excitement and curiosity, and is beginning to process the auditory signals just like any other kid. In fact, he has discovered a love of music.
Greyson is working with a speech therapist, learning how to form sounds with his mouth and mimic words as he sees others speaking. He has already begun babbling, which is an early milestone in speech development. It will take a lot of work and practice to transition from the sign language he learned as a baby to spoken language.
But Greyson's doctors are optimistic. The surgery itself went great, the implant is working perfectly, and Greyson is responding admirably. Greyson's parents are very supportive and committed to helping their son realize his full potential.
What a victory for a little boy who has soldiered through so much adversity in his young life! I'm sure he will remember, through all the hardships, just how much his parents love him. After all, that's the first thing he ever heard.

An alloy supplier is a company that provides metals that are comprised of two or more metallic elements. An alloy may be a binary alloy, which has two metallic components, a ternary alloy with three metallic components, a quaternary alloy with four metallic components or it can be comprised of even more metallic components in trace amounts.
An alloy produced by an alloy supplier will usually take the characteristics of the elements that it is made from, physical properties like electrical and thermal conductivity, reactivity and density, but this is not a guaranteed fact. At times, the alloy's engineering properties such as tensile and shear strength can be very different from those of the original metallic element. However, alloys are typically stronger, more durable metals with more desirable characteristics than those of their individual metallic components, such as increased hardness, corrosion resistance and malleability. As a result, alloy suppliers are vital businesses for companies in many industries including: industrial manufacturing, for use in application such as heat treating processes and for the production of many parts and components; construction, for use in many applications as versatile building materials; commercial, for use in flexible and rigid packaging and distribution of goods; petroleum, to be used in the extraction, processing and distribution of oil and gas; and defense, for use in combat vehicles such as gas turbines in jet airplanes and military electric motors.

David Ayer's gritty cop actioner "Street Kings" opens in six days this Friday, and it looks like a hell of a movie if you like the kind of film that has little room for heroes, and a whole lot of room for guys who are very kind of shade, including cold-blooded killers. "Street Kings" looks like it doesn't take any prisoners, and even Keanu Reeves' stilted acting probably won't dampen all the killing Ayer has put into this thing. (Check out the Red Band trailer if you haven't seen it yet.) Straight up gangsta, as the kids would say. There are new images from the movie below.
Tom Ludlow, a veteran LAPD Vice Detective, sets out on a quest to discover the killers of his former partner, Detective Terrance Washington. Captain Wander's, Ludlow's supervisor, duties include keeping him within the confines of the law–and out of the clutches of Internal Affairs Captain Biggs. Ludlow teams up with a young Robbery Homicide Detective to track Washington's killers through the diverse communities of Los Angeles. Their determination pays off when the two detectives track down Washington's murderers and confront them in an attempt to bring them to justice.
Starring Keanu Reeves, Forest Whitaker, Hugh Laurie, Chris Evans, Jay Mohr, and directed by David Ayer.

Mexican Coffee Bun (Rotiboy)
Mexican Coffee Bun (Rotiboy) – Sweet bun with coffee topping and butter filling. It's popular in Malaysia and Asia. Easy Mexican coffee bun recipe.
I have long heard about the legendary Mexican coffee bun or Rotiboy, a made-in-Malaysia bun with a crusty coffee topping and butter filling. The word "Mexican" might be misleading but this bun originated from a bakery in Bukit Mertajam, Penang, and now Mexican coffee bun is famous all over Asia, with many bakeries and copycat bakeries selling this popular Mexican coffee bun. I finally had a chance to taste this aromatic and wonderful bun when I was home in Penang earlier this year. For the Mexican coffee bun recipe, I turned to my contributor Siew Loon. Check it out and hope you get to try this bun soon.
Contributor: Ho Siew Loon
Recently an old friend of mine who has migrated to Australia started a small Malaysian bakery called Papparoti selling coffee-flavoured buns which happens to be one of my daughter's favorite. This has inspired me to revisit this Mexican coffee bun recipe and get to work. The aroma of this Mexican coffee bun bun is really tantalizing and makes you just want to eat it piping hot.
Mexican Coffee Bun is a bun stuffed with butter and has a very crispy coffee pastry topping. It is made popular by this Malaysian bakery called Rotiboy and now this bun is commonly known as "Rotiboy" in Malaysia and throughout Asia. This coffee bun is also a very popular snack in Singapore, Indonesia, Thailand, and even Korea. Mexican coffee bun is best eaten when it's just off the oven and fresh. The joy of baking this Mexican coffee bun or rotiboy is as fun as the joy of eating it hot and fresh.

HYDERABAD, Nov 18: Activists of the Sindh National Party marched from the Haider Chowk to the cane commissioner's office here on Tuesday to launch the Save Sugarcane Movement.
The protesters — including children and led by Ashraf Noonari, Hakim Halepoto and others — also staged a sit-in outside the cane commissioner's office.
They also entered the office to present a memorandum but the cane commissioner and staff were not available.
To express their anger over the absence of the officials, the SNP leaders locked on the office.
Speaking on the occasion, they said sugar mills had failed to start sugarcane crushing season on Nov 15 despite the directives of the Sindh government.
They regretted that the cane commissioner had not filed any case against the mill owners for violating the law.
They warned that the SNP would continue their protest if growers were not paid their dues and quality premium before Eid.
PALIJO: Awami Tehrik chief Rasool Bux Palijo has said when Egypt, Iraq and Sindh were considered civilized nations, the people of Europe were living in the Dark Ages.
He was speaking on "New Awakening in Europe" at the concluding session of an educational workshop organized by the Sindhi Hari Tehrik in Pubban on the outskirts of Hyderabad on Monday.
Mr Palijo said the people of Sindh were more civilized than other nations at that time.
He said during the Dark Ages in Europe, a writer was burnt alive by the clergy for writing a book.
Sarwar Bari, Javed Rajpar, Darya Khan Rahujo, Gul Hassain Kerano and others also spoke on the occasion.
Mater plan: Hyderabad Jamaat-i-Islami Amir Shaikh Shaukat Ali has urged authorities concerned to prepare a master plan for the city without any further delay.
Talking to journalists and party workers at an Iftar party at the JI office here on Monday, he said the district government should improve water supply and sewerage systems and construct roads.
He called upon elected representatives to come up to the expectations of the people and realise their responsibilities.
Mr Shaukat regretted that instead of initiating road schemes and improving the traffic system, local councils were concentrating on the recovery of tax on motorcycles and cars parked outside shopping centres.
The JI leader also demanded that encroachments should be removed in the city.
He urged the Hesco administration to stop issuing detection bills to consumers.
District council member Rana Mehmood Ali Khan also spoke on the occasion.

OIG: Medicare Paid $1.2 Billion For Drugs With Invalid Prescriber Numbers
Medicare drug plans and beneficiaries paid pharmacies $1.2 billion in 2007 for more than 18 million prescriptions that contained 527,749 invalid prescriber numbers, indicating the agency lacks adequate procedures to detect fraud.
"The Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services and Part D plans do not verify that prescriber identifiers" are valid, said the Office of Inspector General said in a report released Tuesday. "Nor do they apply claims processing edits to check prescriber identifiers against known format requirements."
"These identifiers either were not listed in the National Provider Identifiers (NPI), Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) number, and Unique Physician Identification Numbers (UPIN) registries or had been deactivated or retired before Jan. 1, 2006," the agency said.
Additionally, identifiers on 17% of the drug claims with invalid prescriber numbers did not conform to length or format specifications, and Medicare drug plans and enrollees paid pharmacies $213 million for PDE records with invalid identifiers.
Ten of the invalid identifiers accounted for another 17% of the claims with invalid prescriber numbers. These 10 were the same length as a valid DEA number, but nine of the numbers were never valid and the remaining number was retired in 2005.
"Medicare drug plans and enrollees paid pharmacies $237 million in 2007 for drug claims that contained these top 10 invalid identifiers" the OIG said, and a single number accounted for $105 million of this amount. Five of the top 10 invalid identifiers appeared on claims with payment amounts totaling more than $10,000 per claim.
"A single company that is a large pharmacy benefit manager and mail-order pharmacy accounted for the majority of PDE (Part D Prescription Drug Event) records that contained one of the top invalid prescriber identifiers," the OIG said. The agency did not name the company.
The agency recommends that CMS
- Conduct period reviews to ensure the validity of prescriber identifiers and
- Require Part D plans to institute procedures to identify invalid identifiers and flag them for review
"CMS's efforts to determine the validity, medical necessity, or appropriateness of Part D prescriptions and drug claims may be limited without valid prescriber identifiers."
CMS officials agreed with the recommendations, but said that invalid prescriber numbers on claims "are not an automatic indication of invalid prescriptions or pharmacy claims."
In a letter to Inspector General Daniel Levinson, acting CMS administrator Charlene Frizzera wrote that invalid numbers "often reflect that the pharmacy did not have access to the prescriber's DEA number when filling prescriptions for non-controlled substances. So while CMS agrees that invalid prescriber identifiers can hinder program oversight efforts for monitoring prescribing practices of specific prescribers, this is not an automatic indication for invalid prescriptions or pharmacy claims."
This report is one in a series the OIG has issued dealing with invalid identifiers. In February, it found that Medicare allowed almost $34 million in 2007 for medical equipment and supply claims with invalid or inactive referring physicians' UPINs, including $5 million for claims with deceased referring physicians' UPINs.
That report also found that Medicare allowed more than $300,000 in 2007 for claims with invalid referring physicians' NPIs.

" Genre: Indie Rock & Punk - Goth / Artist: Specimen / Audio CD released 2002-10-20 at Jungle "
* Prices may differ from that shown
Specimen never released an album the first time they were together, only being able to muster up a few singles and an EP, in 1997 a compilation album called Azoic was released though and this features all of the band's 80s music.
Specimen have a raw early goth sound to them and are generally labeled in the so-called death rock category but unlike their dramatic contemporaries Sex Gang Children, they have a more darker moody sound to them which is chirped up by the camp sounds of the vocalist Olli Wisdom.
The band have some very catchy songs like "Returning from a Journey" which sounds like a new wave version of The Human League at their best and I'm surprised the song never broke into the mainstream. The simplicity of the electronic music added is a fresh of breath air in an era where it was common to fiddle with keyboards far too much as if it was a new toy. A lot of praise must go to outlandish keyboard player Johnny Slut for his superbly well-timed work. I think the band were a bit ahead of their time..the track Sharp teeth pretty teeth is unbelievably twee and sounds very Bowie influenced -
"Sitting on your high horse.
When the cowboys come for me,
Its sucha a crude form of transport,
A means to an end,
And an end and an end and an end."
The live tracks do sound a bit worse for wear though.
I enjoyed this album a lot, it's something which is ideal for playing in the background when you are doing things in the house, the album recently got back together and released their first full album "Electric Ballroom", an album I hope to review in the near future.

It was giving me pretty good life but that was offset by random reboots sucking up battery, when I have time to be unstable again I'll grab logs but for now I can't afford it to be locking up and rebooting. Seems its just me having this issue so my phone just may not like this kernel, not worth it to change anything, just to bad because I do like it otherwise.

Programming Compensations for System-Monitor Synchronisation
In security-critical systems such as online establishments, runtime analysis is crucial to detect and handle any unexpected behaviour. Due to resource-intensive operations carried out by such systems, particularly during peak times, synchronous monitoring is not always an option. Asynchronous monitoring, on the other hand, would not compete for system resources but might detect anomalies when the system has progressed further, and it is already too late to apply a remedy. A conciliatory approach is to apply asynchronous monitoring but synchronising when there is a high risk of a problem arising.

Things are heating up on Pretty Little Liars . Are we any closer to learning the real identity of "A"? Will Aria find out that Hanna tried to set her and Ezra up to be found out by her mother? In the next new episode airing on February 7, Aria discovers the art show ticket in her father's pocket. After discovering that, she's doubting her belief that her mother wasn't present that night to see her on her date. When she brings up her concerns to Hanna, she brushes it off, because she's obviously afraid that Aria could find out about her part in the ploy. Meanwhile, Spencer decides to approach Toby about tutoring him, and dismisses Emily's concerns. Instead, Spencer is convinced that Toby might know more about Alison and the whole situation than he's letting on.

" Brand: Lolita Lempicka / Type: Fragrance / Concentration: Eau de Parfum / Gender: for women "
* Prices may differ from that shownMore Offers
I bought Lolita Lempicka's Si Lolita eau de parfum last month when I saw it on cheapsmells.com for just £15.99 for 50ml. It is currently £21.15 and the recommended retail price is £48.00.
~ Bottle ~
The bottle is in the shape of a shamrock. It is made from clear glass with gold coloured lining highlighting the shape of the shamrock.
There is a cute little fabric bandana around the top of the perfume bottle. It is white with purple dots on and a red coloured flower design.
The dispenser button on the top of the bottle is gold coloured and over the top of this button there is a hinged ring with the words 'Si Lolita' made from gold metal. This can be pulled to the front or pushed to the back of the bottle when the perfume is being used and I think it is a nice addition to the bottle design.
I have the 50ml bottle, as mentioned and it is a nice size. The bottle is quite cute and I'd love to see the 30ml bottle, which must be even cuter.
I like the bandana, which is also very cute. The shape of the bottle and the gold lining is pretty.
Despite the shamrock shaped bottle, perhaps suggesting an Irish connection, Lolita Lempicka is a French fashion designer based in Paris.
~ Scent ~
This perfume is interesting.
At first it is very strong. It is slightly spicy with a touch of sweetness to it.
The perfume contains notes of bergamot, mandarin, pink pepper, sweet peas, elemi, patchouli, Tonka and amber.
I am not a fan of spicy scents, but I actually like this perfume. My usual fragrances tend to be fruity and/or floral so this one is very different for me.
I find the dry down reveals a woody element to this fragrance, with a defined amber scent present as well.
It is a warming, sensual and romantic perfume. I don't think anyone would find it offensive.
I think this is one of the better offerings from Lolita Lempicka.
This perfume would be suitable to wear any time of day. It is not too heavy for day time wear, but deep enough for night time wear and I think the scent would be suitable for women of all ages.
I have found that it is long lasting on my skin and it has good sillage. It is still evident 8 hours after application.
~ Price and availability ~
This perfume is available at cheapsmells.com in 30ml, 50ml and 80ml bottles.
30ml is now £16.99 (RRP £34.00).
50ml is now £21.15 (RRP £48.00).
80ml is now £29.00 (RRP £62.00).
The fragrance is also available as an eau de toilette.
~ Conclusion ~
I like this perfume. It is woody with a slightly spicy element, but it is not too harsh. It is a warming scent.
It comes in a nicely shaped bottle, with a cute little bandana around the neck. The metal 'Si Lolita' on a hinged ring is also a cute little extra.
It is also very reasonably priced and long lasting on your skin.
I am pleased with this perfume, especially getting it at such a bargain price.
Lolita Lempicka was born in 1954 and her passion for designing clothes began at a very early age. Years later, Lolita started her own fashion label offering feminine and modern fashion pieces. In 1997, her first fragrance was released and was aptly self named. Since this time, a few other fragrances have been released include one for the men.
*~*~*Si Lolita*~*~*
Si Lolita is the new fragrance from Lolita Lempicka. It is an Eau de Parfum and matching products including a shower cream and body lotion can be purchased to allow the wearer to layer up the fragrance. Si Lolita is described as being "so feminine" and invites you into a world of happiness.
The bottle containing Si Lolita is a head turner and one which is sure to entice. It is based on a four leaf clover with large and curvy leaves ardorned with a striking gold border. Its top is attached over the top of the sprayer and confirms the Si Lolita name in gold. A white scarf adorned with polka dots and floral emblems is wrapped around the neck of the bottle and completes the look with a Parisian twist.
Si Lolita captures its floral and spicy essence with a blend of fragrance notes.
*Top notes - we are welcomed to appreicate Si Lolita with an opening blend of pink peppercorn, bergamot and mandarin. Top notes allow us to determine the initial scent for a short time.
*Heart notes - the heart of Si Lolita offers us a topping of Wallflower, sweet pea and heliotrope. The heart notes create the body of the scent and can last for several hours.
*Base notes - we are treated to a base of Elemi gum, amber, patchouli and tonka bean. The base notes offer the final scent on the skin.
*~*~*Availability and Price*~*~*
Si Lolita is available in many online outlets. The main and extensive collection can be purchased through the European website www.parfumslolitalempicka.com. UK websites offer the following price options.
30ml - £33.00
50ml - £46.00
80ml - £42.00 (reduced from £60.00)
300ml shower cream - £27.00
300ml body lotion - £30.00
30ml - £17.50
80ml - £30.99
*~*~*My Thoughts*~*~*
I have got into the habit of bulk purchasing perfume samples on ebay now. I am in the frame of mind that I don't want to spend a hefty amount of money on a big bottle for it not to suit me. By purchasing samples, I get to pay a small fee and try lots of different perfumes over a space of time and decide my favourites whilst eliminating the nasties. I purchase several of each perfume to allow me to get a good feel for the scent as perfume takes time to settle on the skin and can grow on you from persistant use.
Si Lolita is one such perfume that I recently managed to get hold of a few samples worth. My pretty vials are pink and come carded in a cardboard pack depicting the design present on the scarf around the bottle. What a bottle this perfume comes in though. I mean WOW! I have had the pleasure of owning some distinct bottles in my time but this one is a statement design and is not like any I have seen before. For that purpose alone, I would happily treat myself to a bottle! I haven't tried any of the other Lolita perfumes and although I am familiar with the name, I am not confident in knowing much about it at all.
Si Lolita is a hit from the first spray and one spray on the wrist and neck is plentiful for a good coverage. I only came to know the actual notes present when researching for this review and in this instance, my nose was able to determine the notes before I check up on them. This doesn't often happen as I sometimes have trouble pin pointing notes unless of course jasmine, rose, vanilla etc. On this occasion, I was pleased I could sense the notes and I took to them really quickly.
The initial blast of Si Lolita is powerful and packs a punch as it gets right up my nose. At first it seems a bit too strong but it quickly settles to a pleasant and more manageable level and at this point, I can begin to fully appreciate all that this delightful perfume intends on offering me. The peppery opening offers a spicy and sweet treat. The peppercorn takes the lead role and whilst it overtakes anything which dares to interupt its superiority, the scent has a fresh and fruity base within the top notes which is strange though appealing and each of the top notes advised are present and correct.
The peppercorn remains at a consistent level as the top notes start to dwindle after a few moments. It smoothes out to blend with the heart notes but remains at a high level. It is quite heavy and brings a dessert like aroma to the scent as it jumps into a mix of light flowers and something pleasantly sweet. The scent transforms to become very gourmand like..it is scrummy and indulgent and a true treat for my senses and those nearby to experience. The heart of Si Lolita remains at a strong and confident level for around 5hours before settling down to a gorgeous base.
The base of Si Lolita exceeded my expectations and offered a truly, unusual and appealing scent which I have come to fully appreciate since I began wearing it. The spicy aroma which has been apparent and edgy from the initial spray, is still there but subtler and it has developed into a sweeter note. The amber in its perfect state, warms up the base on my skin and the tonka bean adds a delicious twist of sweet and pudding like aromas which whilst strong, do not overpower in a sickly sweet way. The base notes blended together have created a sweet and spicy scent which is a honour to be wearing on my skin.
The base notes last on my skin for around 3hours before almost disappearing and choosing to leave a tiny vanilla like trace on my skin which can be detected up close. The complete scent from initial spray to the base notes dwindling lasts approx 8hours which is acceptable for an EDP.
Si Lolita is a heavy scent and its sweetness would allow it to suit a modern female for wear during the winter months. It is too heavy and sweet for the warmer weather.
*~*~*Conclusion and Recommendation*~*~*
Si Lolita took me by surprise as its note combination provided a scent to die for and one which offers an indulgent treat. It lasts for most of the day and its scent had me dreaming of sitting on a cosy sofa with a large throw and roaring fire..comforting and warming and ideal for this time of year. I am going to drop some hints for a bottle of this for my upcoming birthday in March as it is a delightful perfume and one which I fully recommend!
Thanks for reading x
At first glance, I couldn`t stand the look of this perfume bottle from Lolita Lempicka Si Lolita, but at second glance... Well, I still can`t stand it! However, all though I do not enjoy the design of this bottle ( it just creeps me out ) , I have to say that the perfume hiding inside of it is rather lovely, actually it`s one of those fragrances I use for when I want to look and feel at my very finest, which is not all that often... Hmm..... :)
Well, a shamrock shaped bottle with polka dots on its scarf, that`s more than enough to make me a bit scared, I got to say! Yes, it`s original and yes, it`s brave and bold, but for me, it just remains a bottle that I cannot stand to look at for too long... However, the first time I applied this perfume onto my skin, I forgot all about the bottle, because the fragrance was of such lovely scents that I was mezmerized! I prefer perfumes with a fruits and citrus in them, I`m not too eager on very heavy and intense fragrances, but flowers, lemons, tangerines, I`m buying it! So, the main notes of this perfume is mandarin and bergamot, two scents that suits me perfectly and rested lovely on my skin, after a couple of minutes the smell of sweet pea and pink pepper also showing its presence, all though much more vaguely... When the perfume had been resting on my skin for about two hours, it also started giving off the scent of vanilla and amber, and after all in all eight hours, I applied another spray onto my skin, meaning that this perfume in my opinion comes with a superb lasting power! I bought my 30 ml bottle of Lolita at amazon for the ok cost of 29.99, and as it doesn`t need a lot of re-application, the bottle is long lasting.
Both thumbs up, all though I have to say that the bottle could manage to give me nightmares...
Launched: 2009
Group: Oriental floral
I recently bought a Si Lolita miniature fragrance in order complete my trio of Lolita Lempicka fragrances. Known for their well thought-out and researched design concepts and modern but high quality fragrances, I was looking forward to testing the new addition to the Lolita Lempicka stable.
Breaking away from the previous, apple- or pebble-shaped bottles that Lolita Lempicka, L de Lolita Lempicka and their numerous spin-offs are housed in, Si Lolita comes in a distinctly ornate bottle that's shaped like a shamrock. Each 'petal' of the shamrock is shaped as a heart. The cap is round with a small polka-dot and floral scarf around it. Of course only the large bottles come with the ribbon. The box is white and repeats the polka-dot floral theme of the ribbon.
You just got to love the packaging and design of Si Lolita! Based on a fairytale concept just like its predecessors, Si Lolita is chic, very 'parisienne', feminine and of course a bit mischievous. The concept is very French with baroque details, I'm instantly thinking boudoirs with Louis XVI sofas, mirrors and dressing table, dreamy drapery and wallpaper; luscious, ornate and decadent details to the core.
Top notes: bergamot, mandarin
The scent is everything but. It's light as a breeze. It starts out with a burst of fresh elemi. I have made some shower gel using elemi and allspice essential oil a while ago as I love oriental spices and Si Lolita's start instantly reminded me of it. Elemi is a resin and its essential oil has a peppery-citrus profile. The fresh, citrusy start backed up by some light peppery tone only lasted for a few minutes though before it got swooped up and transported into proper pepper land.
Heart notes: pink pepper, sweet pea, elemi
As the heart started to develop, the more peppery accords started to lead the scent due to the presence of pink pepper and creating a quite spicy, peppery, but unmistakeably light and sheer scent. nowhere near as powerful and peppery than the pink pepper used in Yves Saint Laurent Elle that came out a few years ago. The transparent accord consisted of an only slightly sweet, light floral edge and a fresh spicy one that lasted for about two hours. Too bad it went so quickly though I did apply a few drops on my arm which is more than a few spray's equivalent.
Still in the heart, Si Lolita moved into its predominantly floral phase where I started to detect the a light and sweet floral note that wasn't drowned out by pepper or any other spicy note now. It stayed in the background though, luckily never becoming too sweet or too floral.
Again, the sheerness and lightness of Si Lolita surprised me, I expected more oomph from an Eau de Parfum, especially one that was launched last October so possibly intended for winter wear. Overall, the now floral heart was light and feminine and not overly sweet with a slight touch of spices still lingering around which was pleasant though not memorable.
Base notes: patchouli, tonka bean, amber
As soon as the heart notes disappeared (which again, is a bad sign, rich and complex enough perfumes retain some of their heart and even top notes right into the base), the characteristic sweet, warm, vanillary, almondy and also spicy, hay-like odour of the tonka beans appeared. Unfortunately, the base felt subtle with practically no sillage at all and stood on its own until within an hour it got swallowed up by a nondescript, creamy and skin-flavoured vanilla note.
The drydown lasted a mere two hours on me. Neither the patchouli nor the amber notes came through on my skin, which was again, a slight disappointment as my skin develops oriental base notes very well in general. I guess it's the poor concentration they come in here that stopped it from happening.
If you're interested to know, tonka beans are the seeds of the Dipteryx odorata tree that belongs to the pea family. The seeds are fragrant and has long been used as a vanilla substitute. They contain coumarine which is an anticoagulant and is lethal in large doses. Many prescription anticoagulant drugs are based on this substance. Due to its toxicity, coumarine is now synthetised in perfumes.
To sum up, Si Lolita comes nowhere close to Lolita Lempicka and L de Lolita Lempicka in staying power or even originality and complexity. Even though the fragrance did have a promising and interesting start, it was clear from the beginning it was never going to become a spicy,
powerhouse fragrance like its predecessors. I didn't quite like the way the base notes developed. The generic, sweet vanillic base was such an easy way out.
Being a light, spicy oriental, Si Lolita is a safe, summer choice if you're looking for something more complex and well-done than an average fruity floral. It's fresh and enchanting, spicy and intriguing. As expected from the house, it is definitely a quality affair, nonetheless reflected in the price tag, but due to its lightness, it's only a shadow of its sister fragrances.
Available in department stores and fragrance shops as 30ml, 50ml and 80ml Eau de Parfum, from £33 to £60 depending on the size. Prices are somewhat less online.
Thanks for reading.

The 81st annual Academy Awards, also known as the Oscars, take place on Sunday. People seem to love that award show above all others for a number of reasons: Some love the films, some love the history, some love the outfits and some just love the drinking games you can play while watching (a shot for every television shot of Jack Nicholson, etc). Not surprisingly, Apple's App Store is filled with iPhone and iPod Touch applications for all types of Oscar lovers.
Apple has actually complied a list of the applications it's recommending you check out before the show. Seeing as an Apple recommendation can propel an app to stardom, I asked what the criteria were for selecting these apps and was told that it was nothing scientific, just a scan of the App Store for related apps that were getting good reviews. This sounds similar to the approach Apple takes when selecting which apps it will feature in stores and on its commercials — it's all merit-based, which is refreshing. If you make a good app, you, too, have a shot at stardom (and the riches that can come with it).
And the awards for best apps for Oscar night go to . . .

BEIRUT — A new round of Syrian government air raids on rebel-held areas of the northern city of Aleppo killed at least 15 people on Tuesday, including three children, activists said.
The strikes extended the furious aerial assault by President Al-Bashar Assad's warplanes and helicopters on the embattled city into its tenth day. Activists say more than 360 people were killed in the first nine days of the campaign, which began Dec. 15.
Foreign Affairs Minister John Baird called the use of force deplorable, and urged rebels and government forces to allow emergency relief workers safe passage.
"The appalling level of violence the Assad regime continues to inflict on the Syrian people will only stoke further violence and brutality on both sides of the conflict," Baird said.
"Canada's position has been clear: the only way to end the crisis in Syria is through a Syrian-led political transition. The Syrian people must believe that they have a place in a new, free, democratic and pluralistic Syria."
Tuesday's airstrikes hit the rebel-held Sukkari neighbourhood of Aleppo, the Britain-based Syrian Observatory for Human Rights said, which said at least 15 were killed.
Another activist group, the Aleppo Media Center, said at least 33 people were killed and 150 were wounded. Disparate death tolls are common in the chaotic aftermath of such attacks.
The Aleppo Media Center said the strikes were carried out by jets and helicopters, and hit at least three sites, causing extensive damage, toppling apartment buildings and setting houses and cars ablaze.
The soaring death toll and massive damage caused by the aerial campaign prompted the U.S. and Britain on Monday to both condemn the assault on Aleppo.
The main Western-backed Syrian opposition group, the Syrian National Coalition, also threatened Monday that if the bombing campaign against Aleppo continues, it will not take part in UN-sponsored peace talks planned for Jan. 22 in Switzerland.
The U.S. and Russian-brokered talks aim to find a political solution to Syria's conflict, which has killed more than 120,000 people since it began in March 2011.
In Damascus, mortar rounds slammed into the Zablatani neighbourhood, killing four people and wounding 20, the state news agency said. Mortar shells believed to be fired by rebels frequently land in central Damascus, causing casualties and damaging buildings.

Hot times at the opera house
Camden — Toboggan Nationals weekend draws people from all over to the Camden Snow Bowl, but the sleds stop running after dark. On Saturday night, Feb. 9, the action will be at the Camden Opera House on Elm Street/Route 1.
Comedy tour on the stage
Maine Deputy turned comedian Juston McKinney's 16-county Maine "Deer Moose, Ticks and Hicks" makes a championship weekend stop at the Camden Opera House for a 7 p.m. performance. McKinney grew up on the border of Maine and New Hampshire and, after earning an associate's degree from Southern Maine Community College, he was hired as a York County sheriff's deputy to patrol the same border. In 1997, he turned in his gun and badge and left the dangerous streets of rural Maine and moved to New York.
In the Big Apple, McKinney worked his way into the weekend lineup at Comic Strip Live, Stand-up New York, Dangerfield's, Gotham and Caroline's on Broadway.
McKinney has made TV appearances include his half-hour Comedy Central Presents and a one-hour special "Juston McKinney — A Middle-Class Hole," which was released by Warner Bros. on DVD/CD. He has been on the "Tonight Show with Jay Leno," "Conan O'Brien" and the "Blue Collar Comedy Next Generation Tour with Bill Engval"; as we as on "The King of Queens" and "100 Centre Street." His movie credits include "The Zoo Keeper" and "Here Comes the Boom." McKinney has a weekly show on Sirius/XM radio, "Live From the Woods with Juston McKinney." He currently lives in New Hampshire with his wife, childrens and dogs.
Tickets are $18 ($2 discount for Camden Snow Bowl/Toboggan participants), available at the Camden Town Office, the Camden Snow Bowl lift ticket booth, HAV II on Elm Street and online at spotlight-solutions.com.
Disco fever on the third floor - SOLD OUT and POSTPONED, TBA
Starting at 9 p.m. and running to well after midnight on the opera house's third floor, the Great Cabin Fever Escape Dance Party Part II will feature Motor Booty Affair. The Central Maine-based Motor Booty Affair bills itself the ultimate disco party band and certainly looks the part; the funkmeisters are awash in polyester, platforms and huge Afro wigs as they play "Brick House," "Play That Funky Music" and more. Selections from Motor Booty Affair's CD "Feel the Love" were played regularly on MTV's "Real World" and "Road Rules" shows.
Also providing tunes will be special guest DJ Terry Frank of Global Grooves. The 21-and-older event is presented by John Orlando of Grand Banks Entertainment. Cash bar will be provided by The Chi Chi Chef. The event, a partial benefit for the Seton School, has sold out, according to Orlando, but some tickets may become available the day of the show; the event's Facebook page is the place to check or call Orlando at 706-6040.

A SHORTLIVED "big society" roads initiative at County Hall will be sorely missed, according to campaigners who have seen pay dividends.
Last week, council chiefs announced the area stewardship fund would be one of the casualties of £46m of extra cuts needed as a result of a 12 per cent decrease in the council's grant from central Government.
The fund was introduced about 18 months ago to link in with plans in Westminster for David Cameron's localism bill.
It divided a £1.09m pot of cash between councillors to pay for highways work requested by their constituents.
Money from councillors John Tanner and Chip Sherwood's slice of the fund was last week put into a £16,000 crossing in Weirs Lane, south Oxford, after 20 years of requests from residents.
Mr Tanner said: "The stewardship fund has enabled some very valuable projects and I'm very sad that it's going.
"But what's really important is that local councillors continue to have a say on the money that's spent in their areas."
In December, £25,000 from the fund was welcomed in Abingdon, where a new crossing in Spring Road will make children's journeys to school safer.
Another success story for the fund is a zebra crossing in Denchworth Road, Grove, which was put in in July last year after an eight-year campaign.
Roughly a third of the cash for the £20,000 crossing came from Lib Dem councillor and leader of the opposition Zoe Patrick's share of the fund.
She said: "The thing you hear a lot on the doorstep as a politician is that people don't see how their council tax is being spent.
"This was one thing we could do to prove we were spending some of the money on things they needed.
"People are going to be very disappointed about this. We weren't very happy to see that they are planning to phase it out."
She said the new crossing was welcomed in the Grove area, and helps pupils at Millbrook Primary School and Grovelands Pre-School, along with elderly people.
She said: "It's all in now and it's excellent. It's something we had wanted for many years."
Other initiatives paid for by the fund include traffic management schemes, refurbished footways, dropped kerbs and verge improvements in urban areas.
County council leader Ian Hudspeth said: "The fund has been very successful.
"It's been working in collaboration with parish and town councils on what they see as benefiting their areas.
"The main point to make about it is we're going to be putting the money back into the maintenance programme budget which will be used for the upkeep of the existing infrastructure.
"While we recognise the value of the fund, the priority has to be the road infrastructure."
The fund is between areas based on various social and population factors.
From this year's funding pot, £244,000 went to Oxford City, £234,000 to Abingdon, £244,000 to Didcot and £247,947 to Bicester.
Smaller or rural areas got less, with £114,507 given to Wallingford councillors, £116,532 to Faringdon and £111,285 to Thame.
Under the budget proposals, the fund will run for another year but will not be available from April 2014.
Cutting the highways fund is a double blow, as the council has also announced it will cut back on "pro-active" road maintenance schemes to the tune of £0.7m in 2015/16 and £0.3m in 2016/17.
These would include carrying out any non-emergency road repair, including pot holes.

Written on: 01/10/2010 by Ellejaycee (1 review written)
Stayed at this park for 14nights 10th Sept, not impressed with this FLAGSHIP resort! Accommodation was Platinum and not value for money, warning this caravan comes with a 16inch tv, WOW! Caravan was not as clean as you would expect, everything required another clean by ourselves. No battery in the CARBON MONOXIDE DETECTOR, staff didn't seem unpeturbed by this fact and went to see whether or not they could give me a battery, certainly no importance on this HEALTH AND SAFETY issue. The main amusement area very noisey. Too many dogs on site for my comfort, some of which ran freely and unmuzzled. Beach not the standard I expected, too much seaweed and although I can understand the ecological issues regarding this at times it was around a 10ft deep drift which came and went with the tide changes, overall it gave the beach a 'dirty' impression. VERY VERY hilly. Unsatisfactory signage to the site from the main roads. On the whole would not chose to visit this site again or recommend Devon Cliffs to others. This is supposed to be a FLAGSHIP resort but does not meet this expectation.

Iran's police chief warns Mousavi supporters
Iran's police chief has warned reformist leader Mir Hossein Mousavi that officers will "decisively confront" any protest over June 12's presidential election, Iranian newspapers reported on Sunday. According to Reuters, a letter to Mousavi from police chief Ismail Ahmadi Moghaddam was carried by newspapers after unrest across Tehran on Saturday.
"I announce that if the current situation continues the police, in line with preserving the society's and people's order and security, will decisively confront illegal activities," Ahmadi Moghaddam was quoted as saying, according to the Etemad-e Melli daily. "After the announcement of the election results your supporters, in an illegal act, poured into the streets and by disrupting public order and security disrupted society's atmosphere," the letter went on to say.
Ahmadi Moghaddam told Mousavi that "bandits are acting in the shadow of the illegal atmosphere created by you." According to him, 400 police officers had been injured in post-election unrest.
Meanwhile, the Iranian authorities have detained members of an exiled opposition group it blamed of being behind "terrorist activities" including setting buses on fire and destroying public property, state television said on Sunday. The arrests of members of the Mujahideen Khalq Organisation (MKO) were announced after unrest across Tehran on Saturday.

Article — From the June 2004 issue
I first heard of Scott Speicher the day after his plane was lost, while sitting at my basement desk in the Saudi Arabian Ministry of Defense, which then housed the Operation Desert Storm command center. During the Gulf War, I was a battle-damage assessment officer on General Norman Schwarzkopf's intelligence staff; it was my job to analyze reports of Iraqi casualties and equipment losses. Among the documents detailing the first night of battle, I saw a reference to the downing of Speicher's plane. Initial accounts were sparse, but over the next weeks we learned enough to determine that Lieutenant Commander Speicher had not survived the crash. Fellow pilots reported having seen the plane blow apart and explode in a ball of fire. There was no evidence to suggest that Speicher had ejected from his plane or outlived the direct hit.
The first intimation that Speicher might have survived came in early 1993, when the CIA learned that pieces of a U.S. Navy F/A-18 were being sold on the black market in the Middle East. In December a small party of CIA-sponsored Qatari operatives, in Iraq to hunt exotic game, managed to locate wreckage from Speicher's aircraft roughly 100 miles inside Iraq, northeast of the Saudi border town of Ar'ar. It seemed the jet had not "disintegrated," as was previously believed, raising the possibility, however slight, that the pilot was alive.
The Speicher crash site eventually was investigated in December 1995. A group of inspectors from the Defense Department and the International Committee of the Red Cross discovered sections of the plane intact and were unable to find evidence of human remains or the plane's cockpit—all of which left open the possibility that Speicher had ejected from the plane and lived. The most curious find was a solitary flight suit, in relatively good condition, lying in the sand some distance from the wreckage. But this inspection team also determined that Speicher, prior to an ejection, would have been exposed to flames of up to 700 degrees Fahrenheit for at least three seconds; an oxygen mask fails at 400 degrees. The Pentagon's Kenneth Bacon said after the investigation, "Nothing the team found indicates that the pilot survived the crash."
In December 1997, I was a weapons inspector for the United Nations Special Commission (UNSCOM), in which capacity I would oversee fifty-four searches in Iraq over seven years. That month a member of my inspection team, a retired Delta Force intelligence operative who continued to do covert work for the Pentagon, requested that I add a site to my inspection list. He wanted to search the Hakmiya prison, known as the "Baghdad Hilton" to the U.S. pilots held captive there during Desert Storm and a possible home at some time to Scott Speicher. (I learned from the retired operative that in the summer of 1995 there had also been a similar plan, known then as the "Ritter option," to embed Delta Force personnel in my UNSCOM team; I, wittingly or not, would have led them to the Speicher crash site.) Although I was reluctant at first, eventually I cooperated with the former Delta Force operative, and the inspection of the Hakmiya prison went smoothly. I found no evidence of WMD activity; he uncovered no new information on Scott Speicher.
My only other direct involvement with the Speicher case occurred in March 2002, when the Iraqi government announced that it would allow a U.S. delegation to travel within Iraq to conduct a full investigation into Speicher's status. To my surprise, the Iraqis requested that I be involved. Within two days a senior staffer for Pat Roberts called to say the senator would like to talk to me. I had resigned from UNSCOM in 1998, frustrated with the United States for failing to support the work of the weapons inspectors, but I flew to Washington to meet with Senator Roberts, who had expressed interest in going to Baghdad himself to take part in the search. Later I traveled to New York to meet with Naji Sabri, the Iraqi foreign minister. Eventually Roberts' trip was deemed politically unacceptable both to the White House and to Roberts himself, and the plan was scrapped.

SINGAPORE (ICIS)--Asia is facing delays in deep-sea naphtha deliveries from the US of 150,000-200,000 tonnes as shipments were stuck earlier in the US gulf coast, traders said on Friday.
The vessels were facing rough weather conditions in the Panama Canal, the traders said.
Ships from the Atlantic Ocean cross the Panama Canal to the Pacific Ocean.
The vessels were supposed to arrive in Asia in the second half of December, but the arrivals will be due in January, the traders said.
Asia may receive up to 2m tonnes of arbitrage naphtha supply from the western markets during January, including volumes which were spilled over from December. They were mostly heavier grade naphtha, hailing from northwest Europe, the Mediterranean, Russia and the US.

I was on the phone with a good friend of mine the other day when she stopped me cold with a comment about working moms. She said, "I never wanted to put my kids in daycare. I could never do that to my children." It took me aback because 1) I'm a working mom and 2) I've never thought that having my son in daycare was a form of torture for him, or that it made me less of a parent somehow. As usual, I got flustered and said something like, "Er, well, it hasn't been that bad…"
I'll tell you the truth, though—putting our child in daycare when he was 12 weeks old was one of the hardest things I've ever personally had to do. But a funny thing happened as the months went by. I realized that having my son in a childcare program wasn't the worst thing imaginable after all. It's actually helped me to be a better, less neurotic parent (notice that I just said "less"), and our son is extremely social, will jump into nearly any situation with abandon, and has learned a whole slew of cool things from being exposed to a lot of teachers and kids with different backgrounds than our own.
By the way, I am by no means limiting this to stay-at-home moms who disparage career moms. I've had working moms say things that were just as horrible, like, "How could anyone stay at home? Aren't they completely bored?" Sometimes people have even implied that women who stay at home to raise their kids are less intelligent somehow, as if raising a child brings down a woman's IQ. Please! Since I'm a writer and work from home part-time now, I've kind of straddled the fence of stay-at-home vs. working moms in recent years. I will tell you that for me, raising a child has required every brain cell I've got pinging around in my dusty old noggin, and has often times been much harder than going into a nice, orderly office where people don't spit up on you or throw tantrums. (Well, not usually, anyway.)
So what's with all the judgment we heap on each other? The whole thing is starting to feel a little too much like the Sharks and the Jets from Westside Story. My theory: I think that mothers (and fathers, too) can sometimes feel like no matter what we do, it's not enough somehow, or not the right thing. I've had stay-at-home mom friends wistfully tell me about dreams they've given up for good, and I've had working mom friends get emotional over time they missed out on with their kids. Sometimes I feel like we just don't give ourselves—and each other— enough of a break. Instead of lifting each other up, I've realized that when we judge, all we're succeeding in doing is tearing each other down.
They even have a term for this—it's called "The Mommy Wars." But hey, war among moms is not the answer. We all know this is a really hard job, "The toughest job you'll ever love," as the old slogan goes. We've got to help and support each other through parenting, not rip each other to shreds. The truth is, we're all doing the best we can and we love our kids to pieces. Shouldn't that be enough?
I think we need to come up with a slogan that shuts down the judgment. Something like, "This is what works for my family, and I'm sure you'll agree that everybody has to figure that out for themselves."
What I also want to say is, "Remember, we're all in this together."
I'd love to hear your ideas on this one. We can start a judgment-free movement, right here and now.
Imagine that.

" Brand: Breville / Type: Electric Cookers / Capacity: 3.5 L "
* Prices may differ from that shown
I have an electric hob which takes forever to heat up and uses up so much
energy. When I told my Dad, he spotted this on offer in Morrissons about 10 months ago for about £15, I think, and bought it for me and it has been so useful. This uses a fraction of the energy of an electric hob or an oven and you can leave it on all day without having to worry about the expense. Whether, you're looking to be greener or save money, you win! Another advantage of slow cooking is that you only have one pot to clean up too!
With the Breville model, you get a very modern design: mine is brushed metal on the outside with a black inner pot that you put all your ingredients in, It has a black dial on the front, the handles are also black and the removable lid is glass so you can see what's going on in there without letting heat escape.
I've no idea how this compares to other brands and models of slow cooker but I have found mine very easy to use (simply plug it in a turn the dial to your desired setting) and has opened up a whole world of cooking. I started off with the basics like bolognese but hope to move onto more adventurous meals like curries. This product also comes with a recipe booklet to give you some inspiration.
I hope to have a very long and happy relationship with this appliance!
I have been quite interested in getting a slow cooker for quite some time now after hearing people say how good they were but I had always put it off. However after reading a few reviews on them I decided to take the plunge and purchase one.
I had a look online at some different models but then I stumbled across a Breville one on Littlewoods.com and it was half price in the sale. The slow cooker cost me £24.00 and this came with free delivery as I have a catalogue account with Littlewoods. I felt that the Breville name was one that I could trust and the fact that it was half price meant that it was a bargain too and something I couldn't leave!
The slow cooker comes well packaged in a large cardboard box with polystyrene holding the cooker in place. The slow cooker is white with the Breville logo on the front as well as the cooking dial. There is a large crock pot with a 3.5 litre capacity which is removable and a glass lid. The cooker itself is quite bulky so if you did decide to purchase it you may wish to store it in a cupboard in between uses. I haven't stored mine away as yet as it is still in the "new" phase and I am intending to use it regularly.
As I mentioned the capacity of the cooker is 3.5 litres and you are advised not to overfill the crock pot, only filling it to around 2/3 of the way up. I have found that most of the meals I have made so far come up to around the half way mark on the crock pot and this makes a meal for my son and I plus a very generous amount for freezing.
I work twelve hour shifts on the days that I work and the days that I am off I like to prepare home cooked meals for my son and I like to do this most nights of the week. The idea of a slow cooker is that you can throw all your ingredients in the crock pot and then set it off to cook slowly throughout the day. This is so convenient for me as when my son is at school during the day I would prefer to spend time with him when he comes home rather than being chained to the cooker all evening! This way I can throw something together earlier in the day whilst he is still at school and know that when we are ready for it there will be a hot home cooked meal waiting for us with minimal effort.
To use the slow cooker as I mentioned earlier you can simply throw your ingredients into the crock pot and then set the temperature you require. This particular model has three different temperature settings and these are as follows:
Low: This setting simmers the food for an extended period of time such as over night. It can also be used as a keep warm function before serving your meal.
High: This setting is used for baking, cooking dried beans or pulses. You can also use this setting if you want your meal to be cooked a bi faster as it will cook foods in half the time required for the low setting.
Auto: The auto setting starts off cooking on a high temperature and then automatically adjusts to a lower heat setting. This is a perfect function for slow cooking meals when you are away for most of the day and the function I have used the most so far.
When you have chosen which temperature setting you require the power indicator will light up red and the cooker will begin cooking.
As a guide if a recipe needs 30 minutes normal cooking time you can cook it on the auto setting for 4-6 hours or on the high setting for 1.5-2 hours.
So far I have made three meals in my slow cooker. I have made a chicken curry, a chilli and a sausage casserole. I can honestly say I am really impressed with how the meals have turned out. The meat in the meals has come out so tender and full of flavour. I know people say you can use very cheap cuts of meat with a slow cooker but as yet I haven't done this as I am a bit wary of fatty meat as it makes me gag! I must also say that I have made sure I browned all the meats before setting them to cook in the slow cooker as apparently this helps them to soak up flavour. I also say I feel a bit more confident in having just browned the meat off quickly too.
Another thing that I have found I really like about having a slow cooker is the lovely smell which fills your house as the meal is cooking! Not only are you preparing a home cooked meal quite effortlessly but you can also smell how appetising it is throughout the day. The glass lid with this cooker is a great little addition too as you can peep into the cooker to see how things are coming along without the need to remove the lid.
The removable crock pot is a brilliant feature to this slow cooker as not only can you serve the meal directly to the table if you wish but it makes for easy cleaning of the cooker. I have noticed that during cooking some of the sauce can burn on the sides of the crock pot but if you get this into the washing up quite quickly after serving the meal it is easily removed after a quick soak in the water.
I have read online that you can also roast meats and even bake cakes in the slow cooker but I think I maybe need to invest in some recipe books so I can make full use of the cooker!
I am really pleased I bought a slow cooker and I think that it will be a brilliant tool for the winter months when I can make warming casseroles and soups for my son and i. I am looking forward to trying new things in it in the future.
I would recommend this particular slow cooker to people as it is a decent brand and a good price too. I think it would be a perfect kitchen addition for families as it is an easy way to cook lovely home cooked meals-even if you are out all day!

StyleBlazer Of The Day: Alicia Keys
Today's StyleBlazer of the Day: Alicia Keys
The Look
When we first saw Alicia Key's new Reebok wedges, there one pair in particular that we thought wouldn't match anything. Low and behold, Alicia has found a way to match those exact pair with the outfit she wore to her Reebok Classic spring collection event at Nordstrom in L.A on Thursday.
The singer chose to match her shoes with her multicolored (yet matching) sweater. Her jeans choice is a totally different color to avoid being too matchy-matchy. We like this look. It's smart, fun and very Alicia.
