Years ago Dino Stamatopoulos wrote a musical comedy (or more appropriately a Light Tragedy with Music) about a small family surviving through a cold winter. Think Sam Shepard meets Moral Orel. Although this play was only performed once, in Chicago, it's being brought back in the form of a musical graphic novel. However, for San Francisco Sketchfest, for the first time since the original staging, Dino and guests will perform scenes and music from TRENT: a light tragedy with music.
SF Sketchfest was founded in 2001 by David Owen, Cole Stratton and Janet Varney as a way to showcase the talents of six Bay Area sketch comedy groups: The Fresh Robots, Kasper Hauser, The Meehan Brothers, Please Leave the Bronx, Totally False People and White Noise Radio Theatre. The festival debuted in January of 2002 at the Shelton Theatre in downtown San Francisco and has grown rapidly into a nationally recognized comedy festival that mixes national headliners, local favorites and the best up-and-coming groups from throughout North America for a month of sketch, improv, stand-up and alternative comedy. A favorite with audiences, critics, and performers alike, the festival has grown substantially to become a highly anticipated artistic showcase that consistently delivers top quality comedic performances, tributes and panel discussions. To learn about past participants, visit the Past Festivals page (coming soon).
Audiences have overwhelmingly responded to SF Sketchfest's diverse programming which has featured performers from every major North American television comedy smash of the last 25 years including Saturday Night Live, The Kids in the Hall, Mr. Show, Arrested Development, VEEP, The Upright Citizens Brigade, The State, Mystery Science Theatre 3000, Strangers With Candy, Key & Peele, The Simpsons, The Daily Show and more. SF Sketchfest offers its audiences the rare opportunity to see their favorite performers in intimate live performances and discussions.

Press Release:
WORD Bookstores and Friends of the Loew's is very excited to invite Jersey City and beyond to a night of laughter, books, and everything in between with comedians and authors Joel McHale and Will Forte on Wednesday, October 26, 2016 at 8:00 PM. Tickets available at the link…
For years, Joel McHale's stand-up performances have sold out venues across the country, and his role in the beloved cult series Community and as the host of E!'s The Soup have made him a household name in comedy and pop culture. This October, not only is Joel starring in CBS's new series The Great Indoors, he will also bring his razor-sharp wit to book form with the release of THANKS FOR THE MONEY: How to Use My Life Story to Become the Best Joel McHale You Can Be.
You probably know Will Forte best as the creator and Emmy-nominated star of the critically-acclaimed FOX-TV's hit Last Man on Earth, the lead in the cult-classic movie MacGruber, or as one of your favorite Saturday Night Live alums. But long before he became a famous comedian, a single, twenty-four-year-old Forte found his true purpose in life: giving men dating advice. This August, Forte, a forty-six-year-old bachelor, finally delivered his illustrated magnum opus, the master dating "guidebook" 101 THINGS TO DEFINITELY NOT DO IF YOU WANT TO GET A CHICK.
Join WORD Bookstore at Loew's Jersey Theatre in celebration of the release of THANKS FOR THE MONEY and 101 THINGS TO DEFINITELY NOT DO IF YOU WANT TO GET A CHICK, as Joel and Will take the stage together for a bit of conversation and a lot of comedy.
Each ticket guarantees admission to the event as well as 1 copy of THANKS FOR THE MONEY and 1 copy of 101 THINGS TO DEFINITELY NOT DO IF YOU WANT TO GET A CHICK!
In addition, ever the community advocates and strong supporters of local public arts programming, Joel and Will are thrilled that $3 of each ticket sold will go directly to our friends and Jersey City arts space staple, Friends of the Loews/Loew's Jersey Theatre.
Joel McHale is an actor, comedian, amateur knife enthusiast, and television host who starred on the acclaimed sitcom Community, the pop culture-skewering series The Soup, and the revival of The X-Files. He currently stars on the CBS series The Great Indoors – his most high-profile role since a breakout performance as Quicky the Clown on USA Network's The Huntress. McHale has appeared in the movies Ted, Blended, Deliver Us From Evil, and The Informant!, and hosted the 2014 White House Correspondents' Dinner. Born in Rome and raised in Seattle, McHale lives in Los Angeles with his wife, two sons, and many dangerous edged weapons.
Will Forte is an award-winning American actor, comedian, writer, producer and voice actor. He is best known for his work in television as a cast member on "Saturday Night Live", and as the creator and star of the sitcom "The Last Man on Earth." The drawings in 101 THINGS TO DEFINITELY NOT DO IF YOU WANT TO GET A CHICK landed him his first-ever TV writing gig on the Jenny McCarthy sketch show on MTV and then, later, landed him at "The Late Show with David Letterman." So, they're not ALL fun and games, just mostly.

Join Couchsurfing to see Mads's full profile. It's free!
About Me
I'm Mads. it's always a little difficult to get started on these descriptions of yourself - don't you think? Lets just get the basic info over with..
Im a 23 year-old guy from Copenhagen, Denmark. I study Philosophy and Social Science at Roskilde University. I live with my girlfriend Megan on Amager in Copenhagen in a 1-room apartment. It's small - but we dont need more right now! :)
In my sparetime i like to watch movies with Megan and go biking in Copenhagen. She often calls me a nerd because i also like to play video games.
I love travelling and we save up all the money we can for the next trip. I have been travelling alot with my good friend Mikkel - unfortunately he lives in Århus now, so i dont see him as much as i would like. I have met so many wonderfull people through Couchsurfing. So many people have been kind to offer us a couch while travelling around.
This is Mads' profile - but we thought it would be good to tell you a little about Megan too.
A quick "hey yall" from Megan! I'm a 23 year old American girl and current Dane-in-training. I'm currently persuing my Masters Degree in Applied Cultural Analysis (a close cousin of Ethnography and Anthropology) here in Copenhagen. Like Mads, and every single other Couch Surfer, traveling is a passion. And although my map may not have as many pins in it as others, I grew up fortunate enough to have an airline dad, and was able to hop on planes at a whim. I guess it's a "chicken-or-the-egg" case of whether my affinity for travel led to my fascination in other cultures, or visa versa. Either way, I'm always ready for another trip to somewhere unknown (or back to a favorite spot). I've never tried Couch Surfing before, but am excited to start!
uuuuh.... yes lets start the conversation there :)
Why I'm on Couchsurfing
I have couchsurfed alot in Europe, Asia and South America. I have also hosted a a bunch of people.. such as the amazing Maya from the United States and the two funny canadians Gibson and Alex and more
History and Ancient stuff.. music and good food.

Music, Movies, and Books
I like Fantasy and Gangster movies.
I enjoy all kinds of different music - it depends on my mood, but of international names I can mention, Beatles, Queen, The Strokes, Black Sabbath, Simon & Garfunkel, Pink Floyd (of course), The Tallest Man on Earth, Bob Dylan, film music from Ennio Morricone, Timbuktu, Bob Marley, Arctic Monkeys and alot of danish music too. oh... and i have to mention Ennio Morricone!

PYBAG implements a portable bag and is intended for fast synchronization and backup. It lets you use a portable digital storage device to carry your electronic documents similar to the way you can use a bag to carry paper documents. You can synchronize the bag with your original files easily. If a synchronization conflict occurs, it will be reported. You can specify rules for automatic conflict resolution. With PYBAG, you can backup files and synchronize any changes made to the original files with the bag. The synchronization process will only copy changed files. The program is cross-platform and independent from the OS and filesystem. You may easily synchronize files between Windows and Linux, for example. Symbolic links are supported on all systems (if the OS or filesystem does not support symlinks, then they are emulated). This program has a GUI and a command line interface.
The libcommon project is an API implementation in order to respond to general development needs for softwares written in C. This library gives to the developer some utility functions like advanced getopt management, an extra strings treatments function, debugging and tracing functions, and macros for generic lists support. Its goal is to avoid constant re-implementation of the same things for each new program. The libcommon API has been implemented in order to be multi-platform (compatible with i386, ia64, PPC, MIPS, and MIPS 64), hardened (high-level compilation restrictions and implementation requirements), and as few libc dependencies as possible.
Components 4 Java is a development tool for Java. It provides a framework to organize and separate different parts of code, and fills the gap between the class level and the library level as provided by the Java SE architecture. Additionally, you can organize your classes in well-separated and loosely coupled components. Those can be stuck together graphically into larger compositions. Finally, components and compositions will be distributed among Java archives as specified in assemblies.
AppLogger is a library that allows an application programmer to provide run-time customizable output from an application. It includes a function, applogger_log(), with calling semantics analogous to the standard C library's printf(), but with extra arguments to specify a classification for the output message. Calls to applogger_log() thus specify the classification and text of a message; calls to other functions in the AppLogger library determine the real-time policy applogger_log() applies to messages of a given classification: print to file, send over a network socket, ignore the message, etc. In short, AppLogger allows for the separation of message content and message output policy in an application.
Time Star is calendar-based software to make bookings, manage work, and issue quotations, job sheets, invoices, and receipts.

Create graphs using client, work, and financial data.
EasyCreator is an extension creator for Joomla!. You start by creating a 'frame' for your extension based on predefined templates for components, modules, plugins, and templates. You can also import existing and installed extensions. It also tries to assist with the creation of multilingual extensions by comparing the existing language file and examining the PHP and XML code for appearences of 'JText::***', then providing an overview of untranslated strings and missing and obsolete translations. An interface for creating config XML files is also provided.
iPfaces is a framework for simple creation of native, form-oriented network applications for mobile devices. The aim of the solution is to screen the programmer completely out from the mobile platform itself, and transfer the entire application logic to the central application server level. Developers with experience with one of the supported Web technologies (ASP.Net, Java, and PHP) may start working with iPFaces virtually immediately.

Watching: LOLOLOL I haven't really watched anything in ages. The last thing I watched was The Addams Family movies last week, and okay yeah I forgot how awesome that first one is. Morticia and Gomez foreverrrrrr.
Listening: Just regular old music. We're down a car again (honeyman's vehicle just keeps on breaking) and it's just harder to listen to podcasts and audiobooks on my commute if I'm not alone.
Eating: Coffee and a donut. #notgreatlifechoicesbutohwell
Thinking: I can't believe Beyonce's only 36.
Citizening: Planning to call my reps today about this DACA bullshit.
Anticipating: Reading. I'm in the mood right now to just really dig into all of my books. I'm doing a TBR Bingo thing on Litsy and I want to start crossing some books off! I'm hoping to break at least 70 books by the end of the year, and I want to hit a certain number of audiobooks… I know numbers are arbitrary, but whatever. I miss the times when I could read 100 books in a year.
Also, I bought some fall/autumn/Halloween stuff over the weekend so pretty psyched to decorate a bit too.
Exercising: I went to the gym like 2 weeks ago! And then my family came to town and I haven't gone again, but my knee didn't do too awful. I did the elliptical and it was fine, except I had to REALLY pay attention while I was doing it because every now and then I'd step or something in a weird way and jolt it in a painful kind of manner…. ugh. I want to go at LEAST once this week. I can manage that, surely? Just ONCE Sarah, come on.

Surprise !
A surprising word and an answer
to a reader's question about,
what, precisely, constitutes
an "elitist use of English"
A Word Whose Very Existence
Astonished Me
Recently I was spooked, not to say bouleversé, when reading a right-wing rag of a Canadian newspaper, to observe the reporter, a local Cro-Magnon bigot, use the verb "to dullen." Dismissively I thought, oh-oh, another semi-literate bozo unacquainted with the common fact that dull is both an adjective and a verb.
Yet so venerable a tome as the Oxford English Dictionary tells us that to dullen has indeed been a verb in our language since 1832 CE when quotation evidence points to its being coined by writer Leigh Hunt, perhaps as a chiming antonym to the long-existing English verb to brighten.
Of course the basic adjective dull, with variant orthography, appears in Old English before 970 CE, from a Proto-Indo-European root whose reflex in Modern German is toll which nowadays has both positive and negative meanings like 'wild, mad, crazy' but in much earlier German could signify 'foolish, like a dullard, stupid, not sharp.'
Now, class, let us employ our new verb in an illustrative sentence: Donald Trump dullened the intellectual level of candidates for the American presidency.
Elitist Words a No-No?
To introduce the conclusion of this column we may look to its first sentence and my elitist use of a French past participle bouleversé which means 'shocked, knocked on my ass, overwhelmed, upset, overturned.' It's from a French verb with Latin roots: Latin bulla 'ball' + Latin versare 'to turn,' its prime semantic being 'to turn over and over the way a rolling ball turns.'
Now I beg a picayune space to reply to an email complaint that I use far too many elitist words in my writing. Oh! My most fervid expectancy is that such a wanton indictment may teem with prejudicial surplusage!
The late Australian art critic, Robert Hughes ─ by my lights one of the best art critics who ever wrote in English ─ was labelled by fellow Australian journalists as "an elitist" - granted a given that Australian males (all named Bruce) comprise an archaic subspecies of humanity best left to themselves squeezing tits and popping a shrimp on the "barby."
Answering the flimsy charge of the Aussie galoots, Hughes wrote: "I am completely an elitist, in the cultural but emphatically not the social sense. I prefer the good to the bad, the articulate to the mumbling, the aesthetically developed to the merely primitive, and full to partial consciousness. I love the spectacle of skill, whether it's an expert gardener at work, or a good carpenter chopping dovetails, or someone tying a Bimini hitch that won't slip."
Hughes' is a quotable statement because it calls attention to the neglected divide between what is the good and what is the bad, between the artifact worth keeping and disposable schlock, the junk, the kitsch and the garbage choking modern life.
Hughes believed in talent, craft and skill, not welfare, not passing every moron in Grade Seven, not letting some defective brain-stem shoot a cop in the head just because said dunce has been "hard-done-by" or because the retard was deprived of licorice as a child.
Hughes did not agree that being able to read a soup can qualified a student to pass Grade 12 English. Hughes loved the thing well made, whether it was a perfect nautical knot, a great painting, or, like me, a superb sentence of English. Culture which endures needs more strict judges like Robert Hughes.
What, you may unwisely ask, is my own philosophy of column writing? In each column I try to select one word not merely rare, but a choice vocable that is in fact le mot recherché, a term uncommon to the point of pretentiousness. Email response reveals that readers of At the Wording Desk seek an expansion of vocabulary. So, mes enfants, why else am I here, if not to foist upon innocent readers the most obscure word-mosses scraped from oblivion's grotto?

Central London firm Finers has placed a £50,000 order with Axxia Systems.
The order calls for an integrated IT system, comprising networked PCs, a Unix server from Digital Equipment and software to connect the firm's fee earners to central information resources.
At the core is Axxia's Arista practice management system which includes Fee Earner Desktop, the Arista Windows client.
This module enables fee earners to interact with the system as well as benefit from its time recording facility. The system also integrates document management, in the form of Softsolutions 4.1 and Novell's Wordperfect 6.1 for Windows.
Philip Mitchell, Finers' practice director, said: "The system represents a significant investment which we estimate will pay dividends in increased fee earner productivity and improvements in client service."
Andrew Levison, of Grant Thornton, and Finers IT manager Susanne Jones were responsible for evaluating the technology.

This part of ISO 148 covers the verification of the constructional elements of pendulum-type impact testing machines. It is applicable to machines with 2 mm or with 8 mm strikers used for pendulum impact tests carried out, for instance, in accordance with ISO 148-1. It can analogously be applied to pendulum impact testing machines of other capacities and of different design. Impact machines used for industrial, general or research laboratory testing of metallic materials in accordance with this part of ISO 148 are referred to as industrial machines. Those with more stringent requirements are referred to as reference machines. Specifications for the verification of reference machines are found in ISO 148-3. This part of ISO 148 describes two methods of verification. a) The direct method, which is static in nature and involves measurement of the critical parts of the machine to ensure that it meets the requirements of this part of ISO 148. Instruments used for the verification and calibration shall be traceable to national standards. The direct method shall be used when a machine is being installed or repaired, or if the indirect method gives a non-conforming result. b) The indirect method, which is dynamic in nature, and which uses reference test pieces to verify points on the measuring scale. A pendulum impact testing machine is not in compliance with this part of ISO 148 until it has been verified by both the direct and indirect methods (see Clause 7). The requirements for the reference test pieces are found in ISO 148-3.

Are there "dragon-kings" events (i.e. genuine outliers) among extreme avalanches?
Predicting the occurrence and spatial extent of extreme avalanches is a longstanding issue. Using field data pooled from various sites within the same mountain range, authors showed that the avalanche size distribution can be described using either an extreme value distribution or a thick-tailed distribution, which implies that although they are much larger than common avalanches, extreme avalanches belong to the same population of events as "small" avalanches. Yet, when looking at historical records of catastrophic avalanches, archives reveal that a few avalanches had features that made them "extra-ordinary." Applying avalanche-dynamics or statistical models to simulate these past events runs into considerable difficulty since the model parameters or the statical properties are very different from the values usually set to model extreme avalanches. Were these events genuine outliers (also called "dragon-kings")? What were their distinctive features? This paper reviews some of the concepts in use to model extreme events, gives examples of processes that were at play in extreme avalanches, and shows that the concept of dragon-king avalanches is of particular relevance to describing some extreme avalanches.

Paranormal researcher Thomas D'Agostino has spent three decades hunting the dead. He shares with ABC6 News why an old clothing factory site in Foster, is the most active place he's ever been.
The Ramtail
Factory site was officially listed as haunted in 1885 by the Rhode
Island Census. This following the death of one of the clothing mills
owners, Peleg Walker, and the subsequent noises and eerie sitings that
came after.
Thomas D'Agostino believes Walker's spirit
still surrounds the site because of the mystery of how he died.
D'Agostino has investigated over a thousand haunted areas in New
England, but there's something about Foster's old Ramtail Factory that
draws him in.
"This area is very active. There's a lot of energy here and it doesn't seem to be going away," D'Agostino said.
about a five minute walk into the woods off Ramtail Road, before you
reach the site of where the wool factory used to stand. In the early
1800's, this area was home to a village. Today, it's desolate.
described one experience, "I was out here with a friend and we saw a
glowing form that was moving about the trees where the factory would
have been."
D'Agostino says Peleg Walker married into the Potter
family and became a partner in the clothing factory business. When
negotiations soured in 1822, Walker is said to have hung himself from
the bell rope he rang to signal a shift change. After his death, many
villagers claimed the bell kept ringing.

I start teaching tomorrow and I'm THRILLED and then I start grad school next week! Oh MY!
In preparation for graduate school I have a very intense need to organize everything REALLY well now, knowing full well that once I am facing a full course load during concert season I won't be able to breath. With that in mind I am creating some tools for myself in hopes that I can stay one step ahead of everything by improving my efficiency and time on task while I am at work. My goal this year is a new one. I REALLY don't want to take any work home with me because I'll need every minute at home for my own personal study.
Since I was creating this tool for myself, it only took about two clicks to create a version that I can share with everyone. Perhaps you will find this to be a useful tool… Perhaps you will include something similar to this in your own planner. Maybe you have great feedback! Whatever your thoughts, please feel free to leave me a comment.

Over the past year, the Obama Administration has made several arms control missteps, including pursuing overly ambitious policies that have emboldened Russia and have left America's allies uneasy.
The following Heritage Foundation research outlines the dangers pursuant to the Administration's arms control policies while providing policy recommendations that will better defend America and its allies.
START Follow-On Treaty Could Interfere with Conventional Strike Systems
WebMemo No. 2704
The Obama Administration is currently rushing to establish a treaty to succeed the expiring Strategic Arms Reduction Treaty (START). Any successor treaty should:
- Not subject conventionally armed intercontinental ballistic missiles and submarine-launched ballistic missiles or bombers to the limits on delivery vehicles;
- Exclude conventionally armed delivery vehicles from the definition of equipment subject to numerical limitation—particularly if it differentiates between conventionally armed delivery vehicles and those armed with nuclear warheads; and
- Be adequately verifiable.
The Senate's role in the making of treaties is to serve as a quality-control mechanism. The Senate should not fail to perform its constitutional duty just because of the pressure applied by an Obama Administration infatuated with arms control.
Arms Control: One Year Later, the Obama Administration Needs a New Strategy
WebMemo No. 2771
President Barack Obama's haste to conclude the successor treaty to START and make progress on the "road to zero" (a world without nuclear weapons) is damaging the arms control process. The U.S. needs a different strategy, which should:
- Move Moscow away from a nuclear posture based on the ability to threaten or intimidate the U.S. and its allies and toward a fundamentally more defensive posture.
- Submit a plan for the modernization of the U.S. nuclear weapons complex and arsenal that is sufficient to sustain an effective nuclear arsenal.
- Ensure that the new treaty is adequately verifiable. There is absolutely no rationale for rushing to sign the treaty if the verification mechanisms fall by the wayside.
These are the prerequisites for an acceptable treaty and the foundation for a new U.S. strategy.
Not a Good Start: The Future of Arms Control
Fact Sheet No. 43
In addition to reviewing fundamental arms control principles, as well as the Obama Administration's desire to "reset" relations with Russia, this fact sheet provides several critical recommendations for a better arms control solution:
- Pursue arms control conservatives support. Conservatives support efforts to reduce the likelihood of aggression and war, not just the number of armaments, and reduce America's vulnerability to attack.
- Protect and defend. The U.S. should pursue a "protect and defend" strategic posture, missile defense, and nuclear modernization.
- Moscow Treaty. The U.S. should negotiate a verification and transparency protocol to the Moscow Treaty, which expires in 2012 and lacks detailed verification procedures.
- Multilateralism. The U.S. and Russia should encourage other countries, such as China, to join an intermediate nuclear forces treaty, as well as the multilateral cooperative effort they have spearheaded to address the threat of nuclear-armed terrorism.
The U.S. should not pursue an overly ambitious arms-control strategy, try to conclude a START follow-on treaty at a breakneck pace, make unilateral concessions in order to conclude the negotiations and/or prevent a new arms race, accept a Russian strategic posture designed to threaten the U.S. and its allies, or further reduce its nuclear threshold.
Dangerous Trajectories: Obama's Approach to Arms Control Misreads Russian Nuclear Strategy
Backgrounder No. 2338
As the deadline for START follow-on treaty negotiations approaches, U.S. policymakers need to focus on the long-term objectives rather than the short-term goal of simply concluding arms control agreements at any price. Specifically, the U.S. should:
- Negotiate a transparent, verifiable, and enforceable protocol;
- Pursue a "protect and defend" strategic posture;
- Fight anti-Americanism with more effective public diplomacy; and
- Propose a realistic, detailed, transparent, enforceable, and verifiable joint arms control and nonproliferation agenda.
Nuclear weapons have been center stage in U.S.–Russian relations since the 1950s. Today, both countries can avert a new Cold War and move beyond the "mutually assured destruction" paradigm of the 20th century.
Strategic Nuclear Arms Control for the Protect and Defend Strategy
Backgrounder No. 2266
The Obama Administration should observe the following eight rules in pursuing a new strategic nuclear arms limitation treaty with Russia:
- The U.S. should not enter into a negotiation from which it is not willing to walk away.
- Arms control should not become an end in itself.
- In arms control, process should not dominate substance.
- The U.S. should seek treaties in narrowly defined subject matters.
- The U.S. should seek treaties that reduce the likelihood of conflict, not only the number of armaments.
As the Founding Fathers wrote into the Preamble of the Constitution, military forces are designed, first and foremost, to provide for the common defense. Diplomacy and arms control should be used to prevent aggression.
As the Obama Administration and the Senate consider the arms control options with Russia, they need to honor these fundamental principles. They should be determined to use arms control to test Russia's willingness to commit to the same principles. If Russia proves unwilling to do so, arms control should and will fail.
Policies Needed to Protect America
Rather than pursuing arms control for the sake of arms control or to assuage the international community, the White House should focus on making the policy decisions that will best protect America.

Pyrex Dish With Lid
3 reviews from the community
Review of "Pyrex Dish With Lid"
"Plastic lid's close over these rectangular Pyrex"
Pyrex Dish with LidI have owned and used many Pyrex glass dishes I even have some that were my mothers. Most of my Pyrex dishes are very old 40 years and older.
Pyrex dishes and plates are made from Borosilicate Glass which has high thermal shock resistance Pyrex is Stain Resistant does not retain flavours. It is
Ovenproof, Freezer, Dishwasher & Microwave Safe.
Most of my Pyrex dishes which I have owned for many years are round casserole dishes with glass lids. Recently I treated myself to a couple of rectangular Pyrex dishes with plastic lids! These are clear lids not the ones which are coloured or have green edges.
Now since the family have left home if I am cooking for just hubby and myself I find a casserole cooked in one of my older dishes too large for just 1 or even 2 days meals and its not so economic just to cook a casserole for one meal for 2 people. As I get bored with eating the same meal 2 or 3 days on the trot I usually freeze the left over portions. I find my new dishes ideal for freezing casseroles and lasagnes in and many other recipes too. Read on to find out why
These dishes are rectangular. There are no grips or lips along the edges. They come in various sizes
19cm x 14cm x 4cm deep. 0.8litre - 22cm x 17cm x 5cm deep 1.5litre - 25cm x 20cm x 7.5cm deep 2.6 litre 27cm x 23cm x 9cm deep 33 x 27 x 9.5cm 4 litre and probably more.
At the moment I have only 2 of these, this situation might change soon.
l==l Use
First I will warn about the lid, its plastic and will melt so not suitable for the conventional oven or the dishwasher they are ok in the microwave placed loosely on the dish saves splatters.
I have found these dishes really good. I like the rectangular shape easy to fit into the oven (Oven safe up to 300 degrees,) or microwave. A good shape for the dishwasher and ideal for the freezer no wasted spaces as there is with a round dish.
For storing in my cupboard space saving not only do the straight dish sides fit better I find that they will nest inside each other.
I have used my dishes for cooking casseroles in, toad in the holes, lasagnes, liver and onions and many other meat dishes. I have also used for baking sponge puddings in and cakes.
The cooking uses of these are many.
I do find these dishes ideal for storage. The lids fit very well do not get dislodged fit tightly.
When we visit my mother in law less able now in her late 80's, I often take her a meal a casserole or a lasagne I find the small ones of these ideal. A good sized portion, slightly too big for grandma in fact. Also the contents will not spill all over the car in transport we live about 2 hrs car drive away. Ideal for her to store till she need's them
These like all Pyrex are very durable have a 10 year gaurentest do not dishwash o0r melt the lids in the oven.
Amazon also have a set of 4 different sized ones for £29.73
l==l Price, availability
These dishes can be bought seperatley or as a set . Prices vary do a search for Pyrex dishes with plastic lid to find your best option.

Big History Featured in the New York Times | September 2014
So Bill Gates Has This Idea for a History Class ...
By ANDREW ROSS SORKIN
Published: 5th September 2014
Source: The New York Times
In 2008, shortly after Bill Gates stepped down from his executive role at Microsoft, he often awoke in his 66,000-square-foot home on the eastern bank of Lake Washington and walked downstairs to his private gym in a baggy T-shirt, shorts, sneakers and black socks yanked up to the midcalf. Then, during an hour on the treadmill, Gates, a self-described nerd, would pass the time by watching DVDs from the Teaching Company's "Great Courses" series. On some mornings, he would learn about geology or meteorology; on others, it would be oceanography or U.S. history.
As Gates was working his way through the series, he stumbled upon a set of DVDs titled "Big History" - an unusual college course taught by a jovial, gesticulating professor from Australia named David Christian. Unlike the previous DVDs, "Big History" did not confine itself to any particular topic, or even to a single academic discipline. Instead, it put forward a synthesis of history, biology, chemistry, astronomy and other disparate fields, which Christian wove together into nothing less than a unifying narrative of life on earth. Standing inside a small "Mr. Rogers"-style set, flanked by an imitation ivy-covered brick wall, Christian explained to the camera that he was influenced by the Annales School, a group of early-20th-century French historians who insisted that history be explored on multiple scales of time and space. Christian had subsequently divided the history of the world into eight separate "thresholds," beginning with the Big Bang, 13 billion years ago (Threshold 1), moving through to the origin of Homo sapiens (Threshold 6), the appearance of agriculture (Threshold 7) and, finally, the forces that gave birth to our modern world (Threshold 8).
Christian's aim was not to offer discrete accounts of each period so much as to integrate them all into vertiginous conceptual narratives, sweeping through billions of years in the span of a single semester. A lecture on the Big Bang, for instance, offered a complete history of cosmology, starting with the ancient God-centered view of the universe and proceeding through Ptolemy's Earth-based model, through the heliocentric versions advanced by thinkers from Copernicus to Galileo and eventually arriving at Hubble's idea of an expanding universe. In the worldview of "Big History," a discussion about the formation of stars cannot help including Einstein and the hydrogen bomb; a lesson on the rise of life will find its way to Jane Goodall and Dian Fossey. "I hope by the end of this course, you will also have a much better sense of the underlying unity of modern knowledge," Christian said at the close of the first lecture. "There is a unified account."

OK, a few different issues, let me deal with the easy one first, the credit card. If you know the date the card went delinquent, then you know the date it will fall off your report (7 & 1/2 years from date of delinquency). If you are near this date, wait it out. If you decide to pay if off, make a deal with collectors IN WRITING that they will delete the account from your report once paid. Otherwise, you'll re-age the account and it will stay on your report for 7 & 1/2 years from date you pay it off.
You say Cap One took you to court - was that the car or credit card? Do you mean you now have a judgment? If so, you need to write to bureaus and Cap One and ask for "Proof of Service". No guarantees that will work, but worth a shot.
Car repo - did they sell the car? If so, they are only able to ask for the amount they are short. If you bought the car for 10K and they sold it at auction for 5K then you only owe 5K. Ask for all their documentation regarding the sale of the vehicle. Also, if they say they have "charged-off" or "written-off" the debt, tell them they can't come after you for the balance because they already reported the charge-off to the IRS as income.
Hope this helps somewhat, I recommend you visit www.credit.about.com for all questions credit related. Best of luck!

Attention Local 6000 Retirees !!!
UAW retired members finance their own structure through voluntary retiree dues. These dues make their programs self-supporting. Since the Constitutional Convention in 1966, retirees have pledged that the UAW would not have to use active members' dues to support the retired workers' programs. Our retired members have kept faith with that pledge.
Originally, retiree dues were $1 per month. However, in 1986, the retirees went to the Constitution Committee entirely on their own and proposed changing the $1 per month voluntary dues to $2 per month. They explained that the retirees could not achieve their goals or continue to run essential programs on the current $1 per month. The Constitutional change was overwhelmingly approved.
Retirees are not required to pay dues, but today 75 percent of the retired members pay the new amount of $3 per month in voluntary dues. Of these dues, 35 percent stays in each local union retired workers chapter, 25 percent goes to the regional retired workers fund and 40 percent of each dollar goes to the UAW Retired Workers Department for their efforts on behalf of retired workers. Some of these efforts would be for collective bargaining, legislation, communication, education and representation on issues affecting seniors and retirees. The entire program of the UAW retired workers' movement is financed by retirees' voluntary dues.
Spouses or surviving spouses may request to become associate members of the retired workers chapters. Surviving spouses are also encouraged to participate in the voluntary dues program.
We now have almost as many retired members as active members. Retiree dues support all of the activities of the retired workers' programs and are now more necessary than ever before
Hello UAW Local 6000 Retiree!
Congratulations on your retirement! As you move forward
UAW retirees are activists in every sense: from community
Presently, there are two (2) retiree chapters for the retired
Chapter members are kept informedabout monthly meetings
Remember…Together we are union strong, providing strength,
Bob Sisler, UAW Region 1A Retirees Chapter Chair,

Monday Check-In
Happy Monday! I hope you had a great weekend! It was a fast one around here...but a good one, too. Here's how it all turned out...
- boot camp. Check! And this week I'm seriously wondering why I categorize this as fun. The way my muscles felt yesterday was anything but fun.
- hang out with Kailea. Check! Friday night we made cards together. She made cards to send to Jay and me while she is at camp and I made cards to send to her. I think writing her letters is my favorite thing about her going to camp, because being away from her for a whole week isn't so much fun. (It's all coming back to me now.)
- finish packing for camp. I'm sure this will involve a quick run to Target. I was wrong: this involved two trips to Target. Didn't realize she needed the 2-in-1 shampoo for camp. Guess we'll add that to the checklist for next year.
- clean. Check!
- laundry. Two loads – check!
- unpack some boxes from Michigan. My mom sent me home with some of her crystal…lots of boxes (hoping she used bubble wrap generously!) Okay, so what totally cracks me up is how much that last comment came back to haunt me as I unwrapped the crystal. You have never seen so much bubble wrap in one place in your life. So the crystal now has a home—that was the easy part. I'm still trying to figure out what to do with all of that bubble wrap!
- schedule eye exams. Check!
- schedule mammogram. Check!
The weekend flew by, but it was a nice one! Hope yours was great, too. Can't wait to hear about it in the comments!

Linux Mint to take Linux Crown from Ubuntu?
Linux Mint is now the 4th most used home operating system in existence. But can it unseat Ubuntu as the top Linux OS?
Ubuntu, currently number 3 (behind Windows and Mac) in the home OS theater, has received some stiff competition from Linux Mint. Distrowatch shows that Linux Mint has been the most popular Linux distribution over the last year, and their Linux Mint page has had about 2.5 times more visitors than Ubuntu's page. Though Distrowatch claims that their stats are for entertainment purposes only, Linux Mint is definitely on the rise.
Add to that long time Ubuntu users dislike of the Unity desktop, now the main GUI by default, and several issues with upgrading to 11.10 and you can see why some people are starting to look elsewhere.
Linux Mint may be an attractive alternative to many users. The install is familiar, it looks like Ubuntu, acts like Ubuntu and most importantly, it comes with the classic Gnome interface – not Unity.
With reports that it is very stable, I couldn't resist anymore and decided to give it a whirl.
The installation was almost completely identical to Ubuntu's. And once it is up and running, it looks just like Ubuntu with the classic gnome interface installed. Just a quick glance around and I fell in love very quickly.
First I liked the way it notifies you of available updates:
Also, looking through the menu, I found that it comes with the Firewall graphical user interface installed. You have to install it yourself in Ubuntu:
Just surfing around I felt very at home and familiar with the Gnome interface and the Ubuntu feel.
Okay, what didn't I like about Linux Mint?
The color scheme! There is just something about green on gray that just turns me off. But a quick theme download and background change and things looked much better:
Linux Mint 12, check it out!

Well, I can tell you it _doesn't_ work. You get logged into the gnome desktop, but you cannot move windows nor resize them. Lot's of other stuff does not work. Right-clicks on windows pass through them and work on the background instead. This is because somehow compiz is all messed up in Natty Narwhal. It is possible to fix some of these problems via the compiz config settings manager. Under window management, enable `move window´ and `resize window´. It does not work right away, you have to log out and back in for the settings to take. This is new, because settings in ccsm used to take effect immediately. Other stuff that is broken: blurred transparent terminal windows. Compiz just crashes on them or restarts multiple times per second when having that enabled. The mac-like exposé function is broken (move mouse to a specified corner and have all windows as miniatures on the screen so you can pick one; it's under window management->scale->initiate window picker for all windows). Lots of other problems. Might be a new but buggy version of compiz, or ubuntu specific alterations or a configuration to make compiz just right for unity or whatever. Fact is, for me, not only did Canonical add unity which is all but unusable and severely limited compared to normal Gnome compiz, no, they also _broke_ the old gnome compiz. Luckily I could figure out how to (somewhat) fix it. I can imagine that lots of other people may not be able to.
I made the switch about 12 months ago from Ubuntu. I like playing around with new distros just for the sake of it. But few actually made me 'switch'. Mint did that.
What I liked is that I had an old Dell laptop. Previously I had Ubuntu on it, but it was playing up with the drivers. I put WIndows XP on it, but obviously started running like a dog. I put Mint on it, and everything worked out of the box. Fast, smooth and error free. All drivers worked (wifi, gpu). By default it already had all of the media codecs I needed for movie playback.
I liked the classic Gnome GUI with a few extra touches (including the graphical firewall like you mentioned) – very good for basic users, and seems very solid and usable.
(I even liked the default colour scheme – unlike yourself)

System reserved partition (system, active) on Slave drive
Current Master Drive (C : OCZ-VERT EX2 SCSI (my SATA Drive) - 60 GB
Current Slave Drive (D : WDC WD10EARS-00Y5B1 ATA - 1 TB
My computer used to have a boot file set on my slave drive, but OS installed on my
master. So i eventually reformatted it so that my boot AND OS was installed on my SATA (master) drive.
Recently a USB gave a conflict to my boot priority and wasn't letting me boot with both my hard drives intact. Solved it by loading start up repair via a win7 disk and "repaired" it.
However, now there's the partition of my slave drive, that is marked as system, active now. Before it was just "unallocated space". How can I "shift" that over so that nothing "boot worthy" or "system active" is part of my slave drive?
Thank you for your time. Please take a look below at the screen shot.
|My System Specs
|20 Dec 2011
XP / Win7 x64 Pro
Disk management (right click on My Computer, Manage, Disk Management) should allow you to simply delete that partition if you don't need it. Just make sure you don't need it before doing so. I'd unplug the slave from the mobo and boot the computer to make sure everything is fine without it.

Hey, it seems I fixed the problem. I switched the cabling between master and slave disk, and it's now reading the system files off the master. I then formatted the "system" space in my slave drive and it all works fine now. Thanks for your help anyway. If anyone has a similar problem, PM me and I can walk you through it.

Gastric Bypass Surgery- What No One Tells You
What was once believed to be only for the rich and famous is now becoming a popular procedure for ordinary folks. Gastric bypass surgery is a way to improve a person's health as well as their appearance and this type of "stomach stapling" surgery also affects how a person eats and how their food is digested when they do eat. It is important to note that this form of surgery is not geared towards individuals who have only a few pesky pounds to lose but is instead meant for those who fall into the extremely obese category.
Gastric Bypass Facts
Before you schedule a visit to your doctor's office to discuss having gastric bypass surgery be aware of some important points that no one will tell you automatically just because you are considering the surgery:

Healing Offices concept
In 2013, D/DOCK launched the Healing Office concept, which revolves around creating an environment that contributes to a natural balance for employees. Healing Offices is characterized by a diverse interior design, advanced technology, diversity and room for relaxation. By applying various workplace typologies, a flexible office is created, suitable for various work methods. This has a positive effect on the social interaction and creativity. The combination with an accessible supply of healthy food and encouraging exercise is part of a healthy work environment.
A place that allows people to perform better, also contributes to higher productivity and less absenteeism. Research shows that the application of the Healing Offices concept leads to a 30 percent reduction in sick leave, a 20 percent increase in productivity and a 5 to 10 year increase in life expectancy. D/DOCK has also implemented the concept in its own work environment, and in doing so, is gathering knowledge that is applied in projects.
Healing Hub
Under supervision of art director Jochem Straatman, D/DOCK introduces the recent innovations of the Healing Offices concept in the exhibition 'Healing Hub'. Healing Hub offers a future vision to an optimal work environment and beyond. This exhibition is launched at design tradeshow Salone del Mobile in Milan from April 4 to April 9 2017. Healing Hub serves as a sort of tribal village; a place to work empathetically, to create rituals, to meet, to share, to have fun, to feel connected and to get inspired. "We do this by designing in layers, in which four fundamental layers can be distinguished: shape and function, rituals and culture, intuition and emotion, spirituality and magic" Jochem Straatman explains.
The central space in the area is the community table, designed by Aldo Cibic, with dynamic seats that invite an active posture. The energy lounge is an energizing station, where guests can rewind by means of light, audio and scent. In the 'forum' inspired by the tipi tent, presentations and lectures are organized.
In the mind room, the visitor is given a meditative experience at a virtual level. Wearing a VR headset, the guest visits 7 quiet rooms. Several designers sought inspiration from the 7 chakras that symbolize character traits. D/DOCK believes that the strength of a team is partly determined by the opportunity given to every individual to use their strengths, such as knowledge, insight, harmony, creativity and ability to organize.
The sensorama is a relaxation area fitted with a tatami – Japanese floor mat - and a massage mat. Here, visitors can have their stress levels measured. This takes place in collaboration with D/Science, the research branch of D/DOCK. The painting of the Norwegian artist Thomas Pihl, and a sculpture of Fabrizio Loschi invite visitors to a meditative moment in the here and now. The moodscape across is an artificial view, inspired by the sunlight shining through leaves. D/DOCK applies this concept in areas with little daylight, to invoke the sensation of being outdoors.
Healing Hub, Beyond the working world.
