The family loved it and I liked having one less thing to prepare after the turkey was out of the oven.

REALLY bad - dry and flavorless.
Laurie18 Posted: 11/25/11Groton, CT
I made this and got rave reviews. Everyone thought that they were creamy and it was cheesy and went well with the turkey.
3Boys4Me77 Posted: 11/30/11
This was really tasty. I got lots of compliments. Maybe not spectacular, but a good, strong dish that I'd make again.
katiethurn Posted: 11/09/11
This has the makings of being a 5 star, but needs more flavor. The consistency of the russet and Yukon gold potatoes together was amazing, as was the panko and green onion topping, but other than that it was just potatoes. Next time (and I will make it again) I'm going to maybe mix in some bacon or pancetta and mix in some cheese with a little flavor, maybe some gouda.
jennitc Posted: 12/23/11
Super delicious! I loved it! I should've used more salt though.
MaryEliz Posted: 10/15/13
These were tasty but I expected more from a recipe included in an article titled "25 All Time Favorite Recipes (Oct '13). Hubby and I liked the flavor of the russet/Yukon combo and the texture from ricing them vs. mashing, as well as panko rather than bread crumbs. Will definitely make again, though!
JessieGeorges Posted: 10/05/13
I found this dish to be bland, dry and overall boring. If you make it, I highly recommend adding more salt and garlic at the minimum. I won't make it again since I have many potato dishes that are much better.
SueArch Posted: 11/21/13
Definitely a favorite in our house. We love garlic mashed potatoes and this hit the spot!
daneanp Posted: 04/13/14
I've never used cream cheese in mashed potatoes before and it was definitely a nice change up. I didn't need most of the saved water and I just mashed the spuds with my electric mixer to save time. Really watch it under the broiler at the end - I let it go a smidge too long and it burned a bit. It definitely needed more salt and I'd add some fresh cracked pepper too.

Announcing the WIRED Maker!
Congratulations @Bill_Porter! You're the WIRED Maker.
THE CHALLENGE: Do it Yourself! Make something on your own and tweet us a picture or video of your creation. @Adafruit's Limor Fried and Etsy will be our guest judges.
THE WINNER: Bill Porter's Tesla Hero, a Guitar Hero controlled Tesla Coil. Close seconds were the Nixie Clock by John Berube and RoboBrrd by RobotGrrl, an animatronic robot bird made from pencils & popsicle sticks.
From Adafruit: We're always impressed with Guitar Hero hacks. It's practically becoming a musical instrument on its own and like all things musical, it's better with a million volts. We also have a soft spot for Nixie clocks. This project shows a made-from-scratch clock with the iconic cold-war era displays of choice. We're looking forward to seeing what enclosure the clock eventually goes in.
From Etsy: We loved Tesla Coil! It looks and sounds good, and it's something that we would love to have in our living rooms.

Word is now filtering out that CM Punk had expressed his frustrations with WWE while speaking with people at the Wizard World convention in Portland this past Friday. Those in attendance stated that he seemed disinterested and disengaged from his job.
John Cena made an appearance at the Wizard World convention in Austin today, and he is now headed to Boston for the Survivor Series.
While many within WWE, including JBL, are pushing for him to be called up to the main roster soon, management currently does not have any plans of bringing Adrian Neville up from the developmental program just yet. The plan is to keep him in NXT until at least Wrestlemania.
"Adrian Neville. Not a doubt in my mind. I think he's just phenomenal. I don't know about his promo skills as I haven't seen them as much, but he's a guy who could go out there and perform on any card, anywhere in the world and be a help to that card. I would love to see him up in the WWE. He'll be there I just don't know the time frame."

Nike KD 6 "Blue Crab"
November 11th, 2013 by Aaron Hope | 4 comments
Black Friday equals 'Blue Crab' as the Nike KD 6 gives us a new colorway on November 29th. The design in question is inspired by Kevin Durant's childhood home in Maryland, where the nearby Chesapeake Bay gives birth to all kinds of yummy marine life. The 'Maryland Blue Crab' KD 6 is mostly blue with a water bubbling effect at the front and some Old Bay tossed onto the red speckled tongue and heel. There's also some gold speckling on the midsole that you might connect with butter, but either way, it looks rather appealing. Check out some new photos below and stick with Sneaker News for the latest updates as we approach the biggest shopping day of the year.

Passing the Bar: Lights! Camera! Drinks!
Though Williamsburg teems with restaurants, bars and clubs, and boasts two bowling alleys within blocks of each other, the neighborhood has long been missing a movie house to satisfy cinephiles hungry for a steady diet of first-run features. Now, Nitehawk Cinema, a twostory theater and cafe that opened in June, has filled the void—it not only delivers fine new films on three screens, but heightens the cinematic experience with classy cocktails and a full menu of sophisticated snacks and comfort food on which to nosh.
To design Nitehawk, owner Matthew Viragh enlisted the help of architects Caliper Studio and RePop, a vintage furniture shop in Clinton Hill. Upstairs, the theater's lobby is dominated by a refurbished 19th-century bar, with eight rotating, mostly local, craft beers on tap and a full bar with a list of film-themed specialty cocktails devised by Jen Marshall, formerly of Prune. Patrons can sip libations before or after a show, but not in the theaters, since New York laws prohibit it. Inside the theaters, seats are paired with small tables that are lit from underneath to make it easier to order from the enticing brunch and dinner menus crafted by Saul Bolton, the Michelin-starred chef of Saul in Boerum Hill and The Vanderbilt in Prospect Heights.
Downstairs, a sleek, serpentine bar offers stools to sit and enjoy the same drinks offered upstairs, while maroon vinyl tufted banquettes, tables made from repurposed wood and elegantly crafted metal chairs fill the cafe space.
On my first visit to Nitehawk, I caught Tabloid, Errol Morris' new documentary about beauty queen Joyce McKinney and the "Manacled Mormon" case. After the movie, I went for a cocktail downstairs, since the lobby bar felt more like a pre-show spot. I was intrigued by the low-lit, relaxed atmosphere of the ground floor cafe. The menus rotate regularly, and Marshall and Bolton create food and drink pairings for each film. I bypassed the themed cocktail for my flick, the Chloroform ($11), since its mix of Bache-Gabrielsen cognac, Peychaud's bitters and simple syrup with an absinthe rinse and twist of lemon seemed too heady for my taste. I opted instead for the Ty Webb ($8). A nod to Chevy Chase's playboy golfer character in Caddyshack, the Arnold Palmer-inspired drink blended housemade mint lemonade and black tea. Though it was cool and refreshing, it tasted slightly diluted and wasn't quite as tangy or sweet as I had expected.
On another visit to Nitehawk, I began with the Orchard ($11), the themed drink for The Tree of Life, which was a festive concoction of Laird's applejack, lemon juice, maple syrup and allspice dram that the bartender said tasted like Christmas.
Though it did have a yuletide aroma, the allspice was nicely balanced by the apple and lemon. Next, I tried the Colonel, a tart, potent mixture of Old Forester bourbon, strawberries, lemon, sugar and mint that could have used a bit more sugar and a hint more mint to cut the sourness of the lemon. The cocktails, overall, were palatable and well conceived, but the ingredients sometimes tasted disproportionate. Perhaps these are simply the kind of kinks that all new establishments have and can work out over time.
For those who prefer beer and wine, Nitehawk has it covered. In addition to the craft beers on draft, which have recently included local brews such as Brooklyn Brown Ale ($6) and Kelso India Pale Ale ($6), as well as Maine's Peak Organic Summer Session Ale ($6), Nitehawk offers inexpensive canned and bottled beer like Pabst Blue Ribbon ($3) and Lone Star ($3). International red, white and sparkling wines go for $7 to $11 per glass.
Nitehawk's fusion of high-quality film, drinks and food with an informal, easygoing approach make it an appealing spot to while away a few hours (and dollars). Whether with friends or a date, it's a pleasure to spend an entire afternoon or evening there shifting from theater to bar to cafe in an environment entirely devoted to the love of film.

BEIJING—U.S. Defense Secretary Robert Gates held talks with commanders of China's nuclear arsenal, as he wrapped up a trip to Beijing that he called a success despite China's defiant move to test its new stealth fighter.
U.S. Defense Secretary Robert Gates says U.S.-China military ties are improving as he concludes his visit to the Asian giant. Video courtesy of Reuters.
Mr. Gates on Wednesday visited the headquarters of the People's Liberation Army's Second Artillery Corps, which commands China's nuclear missile force. In brief comments to reporters afterward, Mr. Gates said he discussed nuclear strategy with military leaders there and secured an agreement from a senior Chinese general to visit the U.S.
"I felt it was a pretty wide-ranging conversation and pretty open," Mr. Gates said in Beijing afterward. He said Gen. Jing Zhiyuan, commander of China's nuclear arms, had accepted his invitation to visit U.S. Strategic Command in Omaha, Nebraska, which oversees American nuclear weapons. U.S. officials say such visits are important to prevent dangerous misunderstandings.
China's foreign and defense ministries didn't respond to requests for comment.
Mr. Gates pronounced his trip to China a success, saying he had expected evolutionary progress in building the military-to-military relationship, rather than headline-grabbing breakthroughs.
But the visit also exposed divisions in the Chinese government about pursuing closer relations with the Pentagon. The People's Liberation Army, or PLA, conducted its test flight of the J-20 stealth fighter just hours before Mr. Gates met with Chinese President Hu Jintao on Tuesday—a brash display of military might that fueled doubts about the extent of Mr. Hu's authority just a week before his state visit to the U.S.
Mr. Gates on Wednesday confirmed the earlier account of a U.S. defense official that China's civilian leadership didn't seem to know about the J-20 test before he asked Mr. Hu about it in Tuesday's meeting. "The civilian leadership seemed surprised by the test and assured me it had nothing to do with my visit," Mr. Gates said.
Julian Barnes and John Bussey discuss whether China's President Hu is really in control of his country's military after he appeared unaware of the first test flight of China's stealth fighter during a visit by U.S. Defense Secretary Robert Gates.
China's state media had largely sidestepped reports of runway tests of the J-20 over the last several weeks, but on Wednesday they gave prominent coverage to the test flight. China Central Television aired photos of the J-20 in flight, and carried the first public comments by China's military on the episode. Gen. Guan Youfei, deputy director of the foreign affairs office of the Ministry of National Defense, echoed Mr. Hu's remarks that the test flight wasn't aimed at any country and wasn't related to Mr. Gates' visit. Mr. Guan said the test was part of a "normal working schedule."
Mr. Gates' nuclear talks Wednesday represented an improvement over the silence between the two sides last year, when China's military refused to talk to the U.S. in protest over its weapons sales to Taiwan. But the latest discussions didn't appear to go beyond previous advances the two sides have achieved.
Gen. Xu Caihou, a senior officer who is one of two vice chairmen of the Central Military Commission that oversees the PLA, visited U.S. Strategic Command in October 2009. And former U.S. Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld visited the Second Artillery headquarters in 2005.
U.S. officials said Mr. Gates' visit was important as a part of a renewed effort to convince the Chinese military to be more open about its nuclear arsenal. Chinese officials have been reluctant to discuss the subject, potentially because they have been nervous about revealing any new details about the size of their arsenal, U.S. defense officials have said.
Although Mr. Gates appeared to acknowledge that there were some in the Chinese military skeptical of building ties with the Pentagon, he also emphasized that the military leaders he sat down with were open to improving ties.
There "are those who have issues, possibly, but I certainly didn't meet them on my trip," he said.

Diabetes and nerve damage
Nerve damage that occurs in people with diabetes is called diabetic neuropathy. This condition is a complicaiton of diabetes.
Alternative Names
Diabetic neuropathy; Diabetes - neuropathy
Causes, incidence, and risk factors
In people with diabetes, the body's nerves can be damaged by decreased blood flow and a high blood sugar level. This condition is more likely when blood sugar level is not well controlled.
About half of people with diabetes develop nerve damage. Symptoms often do not begin until many years after diabetes has been diagnosed. Some persons who have diabetes that develops slowly already have nerve damage when they are first diagnosed.
Symptoms often develop slowly over many years. The types of symptoms you have depend on the nerves that are affected.
When the nerves that control digestion are affected, you may have trouble digesting food. This can make your diabetes harder to control. Symptoms of digestion problems include:
When nerves in the arms and legs are affected, symptoms often start in the toes and feet, and include tingling or burning, or deep aching pain. As the damage gets worse, you will likely lose feeling in your arms and legs. Because of this, you may:
When nerves in your heart and blood vessels are damaged, you may:
Other symptoms of nerve damage are:
Signs and tests
The health care provider will do a physical exam. The exam may find that you have the following:
Tests that may be ordered include:
Follow your health care provider's advice on how to slow diabetic nerve damage.
Control your blood sugar (glucose) level by:
To treat the symptoms of nerve damage, your health care provider may prescribe medicines to treat:
When you have nerve damage in your feet, the feeling in your feet can be reduced. You can even have no feeling at all. As a result, your feet may not heal well if they are injured. Caring for your feet can prevent minor problems from becoming so serious that you end up in the hospital.
Caring for your feet includes:
Expectations (prognosis)
Treatment relieves pain and controls some symptoms.
Other problems that may develop:
Calling your health care provider
Call your health care provider if you develop any symptoms of diabetic neuropathy.

Hands Across the Border 2006
Date of News Release: 06/06/06
Released on 5/16/06
(I-65, Tennessee Welcome Center) - A joint press conference with the Kentucky Governor's Highway Safety Program and the Tennessee Governor's Highway Safety Office was held at the Tennessee Welcome Center on I-65 just south of Franklin, Kentucky on Monday, May 15, 2006 at 10:00 am. The press conference was conducted to announce the "Hands Across the Border" enforcement imitative and was attended by state and local law enforcement agencies from both states.
Featured speakers at the press conference were Colonel Walker, Commander of the Tennessee Highway Patrol; Kendell Poole, Director of the Tennessee Governor's Highway Safety Office, and Lt. Colonel Dean Hayes, Director of Operations for the Kentucky State Police. Tennessee law enforcement agencies in attendance were: Tennessee Highway Patrol, Robertson County Sheriff's Office, Montgomery County Sheriff's Office, Franklin Police Department, Millersville Police Department, and Smyrna Police Department. Kentucky law enforcement agencies in attendance were: Kentucky State Police, Simpson County Sheriff's Office, Franklin Police Department, and Fort Campbell Military Police.
The "Hands Across the Border" enforcement initiative is part of an enforcement effort for the "Buckle Up in Your Truck" and "Buckle Up Kentucky - It's the Law & It's Enforced" Mobilizations, May 14 through June 4, 2006. This endeavor sends an important message to the motoring public. We are working with one purpose, one mission and one goal.to reduce injuries and fatalities on our roadways, regardless of jurisdictional boundaries.
Traffic safety checkpoints are being held on both sides of these state lines, simultaneously to remove impaired drivers from the roadways, to increase the use of safety belts and to ensure vehicles are mechanically sound and the operators have valid insurance. During the past week, the Kentucky State Police partnered with officials from Tennessee as well as local departments on both sides of the state lines to provide seamless enforcement of the laws.
Kentucky's current seatbelt usage rate stands at 66.7%. 15 points below the national average. Our goal, through this campaign, is to increase the usage rate and we know we will see, as a direct result of this increase, a decrease in injuries and fatalities on our roadways.

Topic - 5.10 Anasazi VCS, painfulness
Lukeva - on 23 May 2012
I have purchased a pair of 5.10 Anasazi VCS the same size as my Sportiva Katanas. They are a ˝ size smaller than my street shoes size. Now, I realise that I should have gone a full UK size down after reading previous threads. Too late!
My katanas were tight when new but not really painful unless I walked around in them for too long, now pretty comfy. I tried my Anasazis last night, good god they hurt, a lot, toes curled right up. Are these destined for sale immediately or should give them chance, will they bag somewhat and break in? I realise this may have been debated before but would really appreciate any advice.

Have fun! If you want a place to keep track of what books you read this year, there are a number of challenge groups here to do just that. I'm a member of the 100 books challenge - feel free to drop by - and the best thing is that there is a record of what you read, what you thought of it (I leave flippant reviews, others leave thoughtful reviews), and then people talk to you. So fun! I have to admit that my favorite part at the beginning was putting my catalog together. Use the IBSN numbers; it is cleaner.
We missed you at book group. It was funny - most people were somewhere between "meh" and "OMGWORSTBOOKEVERWHYGODWHY" (me), but this one older lady started going on and on about how great it was and how Palahniuk is so right, the future is terrifying and awful and life was glorious in the 50s and blah blah blah. She made me get all Pollyanna on her.

Found you! Add some books! If you have a mild case of OCD like me, use the IBSN number to get the exact edition you have.

Albany-- Albany police continue to investigate a murder at the Albany mall. The suspect is in custody, and police expect to file charges against him soon. APD tells us the man shot to death outside the JC Penney store entrance Thursday was 41-year-old Terence Melvin Bowen.
Police arrested 24-year old Quantravious Lanier Upshaw shortly after the shooting that happened about 1:20 PM Thursday. He is formally charged in the shooting.
Witnesses told police there was a confrontation outside JC Penney. The fight between Bowen and Upshaw carried into the store, and then back out onto the sidewalk where it ended with one gunshot. The victim was shot in the chest.
Police blocked off the area with crime scene tape. Paramedics covered Bowen's body and eventually put it inside a body bag and into an ambulance.
"The Albany police department has been diligent in securing the witnesses. And they've been diligent in serving the search warrants. They were able to get the alleged shooter rapidly after the event. So I anticipate we'll have questions answered very shortly," says Greg Edwards, Dougherty County assistant disctrict attorney.
Police say Upshaw ran away right after the shooting.They caught him quickly at Westover Car Wash just across Westover Boulevard from the mall.
Some shoppers tell News 10 they were a little anxious at the mall after the shooting. There wasn't a big crowd at the mall Thursday evening--- only lots of parking spots.
Right after the shooting, most people at the mall continued to shop or eat the food court unaware of what just happened.
A few shoppers we spoke to say they can't live their life in fear everywhere they go, but they'll certainly be more aware of their surroundings.
"We're in small town Albany, but we can't say that anymore. We are an official metropolis. Unfortunately, then crime rates go up, and that's what has happened. It makes me a lot more cautious," says shopper, Talia Ashley.
"You never know what's going on around us anymore. It's getting scarier and scarier every day to go somewhere else. First it's the schools. Now it's the mall," says shopper, Melissa Williams.
Most stores remained open after the shooting Thursday, and the main entrance to the mall never closed.
The Albany Mall is one of the most visited places in Albany, and that area of town is the busiest retail center in southwest Georgia. The shooting worries a lot of people who own nearby businesses.
After a shooting left one person dead at the Albany mall, nearby business owners took action.
"Lock the door!" says Laurie Classon, who owns LaLa's Bear Factory--- which is just a few hundred feet away from where the shooting occurred.
"I got a phone call from my sister, and she said there had been a shooting at JC Penney," says Classon.
That shooting happened just before 1:30 PM. Classon locked her doors, "Probably at 1:45. This is the good part of Albany. Nothing ever happens like this at the mall," says Classon.
But even though it did, she doesn't feel the shooting will scare shoppers away. "People aren't going to stop shopping," says Classon.
Other nearby retailers aren't so sure. "Every one hangs out around here. This is the happening spot. I'm scared for what's going to happen later," says Jennifer Hall.
Jennifer Hall was working at Adventure Dive Center when the shooting took place nearby.
"I was pretty scared. That's something serious. Especially, since everything that happened at Virginia Tech," she says.
Hall predicts business may take a dive---but only a temporary one. "People may hide out in their homes for a little while. Eventually, over time every body will start getting out and about again," says Hall.
As for Classon, she's remains optimistic business will continue as usual---but will certainly be a little more cautious when it comes to running her own.
"If we have to from here on out we'll keep all the doors locked and if some drives up we'll let them in. If we're not real sure, we won't let them in," says Classon.

Metal Gear Solid 3 for 3DS Coming in 2011At Tokyo Game Show 2010, series creator Hideo Kojima revealed that the enhanced Nintendo 3DS port of Metal Gear Solid 3: Snake Eater will be released in 2011 (via Joystiq).
The port was announced at E3 2010 as part of the platform's official debut. The door is still open for MGS3 to be a 3DS launch title, however, as the new handheld from Nintendo is scheduled to be released before March 31, 2011.
It will be interesting to see how MGS3 controls on the 3DS, which has been fitted with an analog disc and/or nub (technical term). The absence of a second analog nub might make controlling the camera a bit difficult, but it worked out okay for Peace Walker after a bit of playtime.
Metal Gear Solid 3 is my favorite entry in the series so this might just be the game that gets me to buy a 3DS. It will all depend on new features, however, as my PS2 copy of MGS3 plays just fine on my superior, fully backwards compatible 60GB PlayStation 3.

I am a 40 yr old mother of 3, ages: 22, 19, & 13. Most of the damage to my body was a result of my first pregnancy. I was only 17 at the time and was horrified by my post-baby belly. I was a size 4 with very loose skin that hung below my waist line. I've finally gotten the courage to have the surgery. I had a breast lift done in December and was very pleased with the results and how I was treated by my PS and his staff. They were wonderful and answered every question I had to prepare me for my surgery so it was a no brainer to return to him for my TT.
My surgery is scheduled for May 27th and I can't wait! Just 10 days away!!! I'm also having a Brazilian Butt Lift done at the same time, has anyone else done this at the same time as a TT?
I was told I would have to lay on my side to stay off my butt. I am worried about this because I've been reading the forums and have learned that most women can't lay on their sides after a TT. I'm afraid this will hurt quite a bit.
I'm mostly concerned about having to walk bent over. How long does that last? When will I be able to stand up straight again?
I'll post before pictures soon, I just have to get up the courage to take them first. lol

6 days to go! I'm so excited, I can't...
3 days to go! Almost time!!! I had a visit...
I had a visit with my PS today and we had a long talk about my upcoming surgery. We discussed my having a full TT and BBL at the same time. He was honest and straight forward, didn't sugar coat a thing. He told me that it will be a more painful recovery if I chose to have a BBL at the same time as a TT. He said I would have to lay on my side where I will have stitches and that I would hurt. He wanted me to be fully aware of the decision I was making. He also told me I can change my mind as late as the day of my surgery before I go to sleep. But ultimately, it's my decision.
I've thought about it a lot and I decided that I want both. I'm going to be in pain for the next 2-4 weeks anyway, so why not get everything I want and heal from them all at once? I'm not the first woman to do these procedures at the same time. I found 2 on this website alone without even looking for them: http://www.realself.com/photo/266481?offset=64&topic_id=553 and http://www.realself.com/review/chicago-il-brazilian-butt-lift-tummy-tuck-worth-ityet (granted the second one didn't have a good experience, but I think that was because of her choice in PS).
Anyhow, the point is I've made up my mind and am doing both, I hope I get more support than ridicule. If not, I understand. I am going to continue to post my experience here because this is a diary of sorts for me and maybe it will help another woman make their decision if they are faced with the same choice.
Most likely I'll be posting just how much pain I am in and all of you can all tell me "I told you so" and I know I will deserve it. But please be kind, ultimately I am a woman, just like you, who has paid for an expensive procedure, just like you, and in pain because of it. And, also, just like you, I will heal and be happier with my body as a result of (or in spite of) my pain.

We called my PS and he called in a prescription for antibiotics and instructions to come in first thing on the morning. My PS is shocked to see me form an infection this far post op. He said this sort of infection usually only happens in week one.
Now my husband has to clean the site twice a day and pack the hole in with gauze. Literally push gauze into the hole packing it in. My PS wants it to heal from the inside out. So my husband now has to do this for about the next 4 weeks depending on how I heal.
I'm so unhappy right now I'm crying

On top of that the other side has formed an infection! So now we have to pack that side, too. Aarrg!
I just keep telling myself it will all be ok. It's just a delay and nothing more. Besides, the rest of the scar is healing beautifully! :)
It will all be ok.
It will all be ok...
I want to share a cute story with you ladies...
When I came home after my surgery my 13 yr old son was alarmed to see me in so much pain! I tried to explain to him that I had some muscled repaired in my tummy and the PS made my belly prettier. Not sure he understood but he accepted that story.
But seeing me in so much pain made him desperate to help any way that he could so I hired myself a new nurse: HIM! :)
We agreed on $5 a day for my care (he had been saving up for a new video game so he was excited about this!)
That was the best decision I made! My water glass is always full with fresh ice water, he brings me all my Meds on time, helps me sit up, makes most of my meals, tucks my blanket in around me when he thinks I'm napping... Just the best nurse ever!
I didn't allow him to do all the gross stuff like redressing my bandages or dealing with the drains, my husband did all that. But my son did offer to do that, too! Bless his heart :)
I feel like the luckiest mom ever! I'm no longer bummed about my infections now after writing this. I guess it is good to count your blessings! :)
My PC and hi staff were very wonderful. Answered all of my questions and concerns. This is my second plastic surgery with Dr. Adam and if I need another I'm definitely going back to him!

The only thing I hated about recovery is the drains (which come out in 2-3 weeks) and walking bent over, I hated that! lol
Don't worry about the anasthesia, you'll go to sleep and what fells like one minute later you wake up and it's all over. :)
Good luck on your big day, I just know you'll love your results :)

My PS hasn't allowed me to work out yet till I'm all healed, he doesn't want to tear the holes bigger. I can't wait till I can do stomach crunches! I paid $8000 for this belly and I'm gonna keep it! lol
I stopped wearing the binder my PS gave me at 7 weeks and now at 10 weeks I'm wearing no compression garment at all. It feels good to be back in small undies again! I haven't worn little ones in years! Yay for cute undies!!! lol

Central Park winter path. Shakespeare Garden in the snow.
I think back to days spent wrapped in the cold silence of freshly fallen snow in Central Park.
The labyrinth-like path leading from Shakespeare Garden lined by a wooden fence twists and turns in the snow winding its way under trees whose branches reach out to each other like eager arms awaiting the warmth of an embrace.
It's on days like this when the sun rests longer than usual and winter's essence seeps through every crack and crevice that the earth quivers a ghost shiver that rests in summer's memory.
The rustic wooden fence rests on a four acre section of Central Park known as the Shakespeare Garden which is located in the west part of the park near 79th Street. On the 300th anniversary of William Shakespeare's death in 1916, this area was dedicated to Shakespeare and named. The plants and flowers that are found in this area are all mentioned in the works of the playwright and are also plants and flowers that are found in his garden in Starford-upon-Avon. There is even a white mulberry tree on this four acre plot of land that is said to have grown from a graft of a tree planted by Shakespeare himself in the 1600s.
While the paths that winds through Central Park's Shakespeare Garden is gorgeous in the warmer months of the year, it's absolutely stunning when snow has freshly fallen.
This photo was taken during one of the last major snowstorms (a blizzard) in New York City back in 2011. We haven't seen snow like this, in this magnitude, since then. I have been going through my photos from the two blizzards we experienced that winter season wondering if we will ever see snow like this again. Who knows?

New York City in the snow. Central Park winter landscape at Bow Bridge.
There is something undeniably magical that occurs as the snow falls
swirling and twirling in the air
until it hits the ground heavy with the weight of a thousand promises:
exultations and dreams held close to the earth
in the stillness between wintry pauses
as the city lays in wait
like a snow-globe resting between giddy shakes of joy.
Bow Bridge is one of Central Park's most iconic structures. It was built between 1859 and 1862 and is shaped like an archer's bow. This particular image was taken during a snowstorm in Central Park, New York City. Bow Bridge sits covered by a beautiful layer of freshly fallen snow as the buildings that line Central Park West sit in the distance just past the snow-laden trees.
I am a bit giddy because it appears that New York City may actually get some snow tomorrow. I read this highly entertaining piece of writing by Andy Newman in the NY Times earlier: "Tomorrow, It Will Snow, Perfectly" which had me at hello with its opening paragraph:
"The ideal city snowstorm, meteorological Platonists say, blankets the landscape without burying it, beautifies but does not burden, transforms and cocoons without paralyzing or even particularly inconveniencing."
Of course, I always feel a bit like Winona Ryder in one of the best scenes from Edward Scissorhands (the music from that scene = awesome) during the first real snow of the winter season here.
Here's hoping! :)
P.S. Edited to add that yes, this is the same bridge that Dr. Who ran over in the Angels take Manhattan episode.

Central Park winter landscape. Angel of the Waters. New York City.
The silence that engulfs the world after a snowfall is deafening.
All heartbeats, all footsteps, all meandering thoughts and evocations are wrapped in a heavy blanket of snow.
Trees cease reaching for the sky, weighed down by the weight of the sky's tears of joy and there is scarcely a breath to be heard.
Winter muffles the earth silencing it's yearnings,
and all at once there is peace.
The definitive crown jewel of Central Park, Angel of the Waters is one of the most famous and universally loved fountains in the world. Also known as Bethesda Fountain, it was designed by Emma Stebbins.
This particular photo of a snow-covered Central Park was taken during a break in a bitter blizzard that hit New York City a few winters ago. The snowstorm dropped a few feet of snow on the city covering the trees and iconic sights in Central Park in a gorgeous coating of icy beauty.

Central Park winter landscape. San Remo through snow-covered trees. New York City
Summer's memories sit suspended like words caught in the throat of winter: stifled, muffled utterances barely able to escape in the form of speech.
But in the wide open expanse of dreams, words take flight as summer's memories break through the shards of branches conjuring up the outline of buildings and cityscapes on the condensation of winter's frozen breath.

Many Happy Returns: Calculating E-Learning ROI
Learning Circuits: E-learning may be the wave that carries the future of corporate training. But if that wave is ever to crest, corporations must be able to determine a financial return on their investment. Only if early adopters can truly demonstrate an ROI in dollar figures will e-learning wash over corporate culture and change its landscape. (2001-06-24)

Wrapping your palm and fingers around the textured handle scales you will feel its excellent grip and a sense of security, knowing no matter the situation, this Benchmade knife wont let you down. Deploying the drop point blade is as quick and easy as a flick of a finger due to the integrated flipper mechanism.

The reliable and tenacious grip of the Axis lock gives you peace of mind knowing that once the blade is up in its locking position, it stays that way until you manually release it. The aesthetics are just as notable as feature. A swirling combination of blue and black cover the contoured G10 scales as they lay over black stainless liners. This Benchmade plain edge knife does not favor one hand or the other. Its true ambidextrous dual thumb studs allows for left-handers or right-handers to enjoy its many marvels. Also included is a reversible tip-up pocket clip for a deep carry. A folding knife this great could only come from America. Like every Benchmade product, it is made right here in the United States. If you are avid knife collector or just looking for a perfect everyday carry knife, do yourself a favor and order the Benchmade 300-1 plain edge folding knife today.

Federal court allows schools' Jewish and Muslim symbols, bans Christian nativity Associated Press (via fortwayne.com) ^ | Thu, Feb. 09, 2006 | Associated Press http://188.8.131.52/focus/f-news/1575478/posts
NEW YORK (AP) - A federal appeals court has upheld New York City's policy on school holiday displays, which allows symbols of Jewish and Muslim holidays but prohibits Christian nativity scenes. Santa Claus, reindeer and Christmas trees are permitted.
The 2-1 ruling by the 2nd U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals agreed with a lower court judge, who said allowing secular symbols neither advanced nor inhibited religion.
The appeals court said no objective observer would believe the city wanted to communicate to its million-plus students "any official endorsement of Judaism and Islam or any dismissal of Christianity." Instead, the court said, the purpose was to use holidays to encourage respect for diverse cultural traditions.
Dissenting Judge Chester Straub objected that the policy "utilizes religious symbols of certain religions, but bans the religious symbols of another."
The original case was filed by Andrea Skoros, a Roman Catholic mother of two sons who attended public schools, who said the policy promotes Judaism and Islam while conveying disapproval of Christianity. Her purpose was not to bar Jewish and Muslim symbols but to have schools add Nativity scenes.
ALERT UPDATE: EPA PROPOSED RULE ALLOWS CHEMICAL AND PESTICIDE TESTING ON KIDS Thanks to everyone who responded to the OCA Alert in the last issue of Organic Bytes. So far, the EPA has been deluged with over 20,000 comments from OCA supporters demanding changes in the EPA's controversial proposed rule on human chemical testing, which contains loopholes that would allow the testing of chemicals and pesticides on children. EPA's proposal flies in the face of massive public opposition and directives from Congress and the National Academy of Sciences to stop industry from carrying out unethical studies on children. In the wake of this strong citizen backlash, the EPA is frantically trying to discredit the OCA and other organizations working on this issue (such as the Natural Resources Defense Council, the Center for Health and Environmental Justice, and Public Employees for Environmental Responsibility, etc.) by flat out denying that the proposed rule contains exceptions for testing toxics on children. Unfortunately for the EPA PR greenwashing efforts, the actual proposed rule is still posted on the EPA website, where the public can look beyond the agency's rhetoric and read the rule themselves. We invite you to read these sections of the proposed regulations, which allow chemical or pesticide testing on children under the following circumstances:

Product DescriptionLighter than their older Marta SL Rotor, Magura's Storm 6 Bolt Rotor is standard on their Louise Brakesets, and it can be used with Marta brakes as well. It's lighter because it has vent holes drilled into the braking surface, and its gentle sawtooth shaping decreases the chances that you'll experience brake squeal. The Magura Storm 6 Bolt Rotor will work with any 6 Bolt compatible hubs. It comes with fasteners.

text: Oelschig Nursery, Inc. has been a Savannah tradition within the horticulture business for over a century. A deep love and unshakable faith in the greenhouse industry has kept the Oelschig Corporation firmly rooted and growing strong since 1882 when a August Carl Oelschig emigrated from Halle, Germany, to the United States. After a brief stay in Long Island, NY, August ventured down south to open a nursery business in Savannah, GA. Within a few years Oelschig's business had flourished and by the 1900's Oelschig Nursery was the first U.S. producer of field grown roses and the world's largest shipper of rubber plant cuttings. Through the next half century the business was divided between the family resulting in 3rd generation George Oelschig operating the George Oelschig Greenhouses. Fourth generation family business owner Kurt Oelschig now runs the greenhouses with the same devotion and drive that built a business from a brick over 100 years ago. After receiving his Bachelor of Science in Agriculture from the University of Georgia Kurt stepped in the position of CEO and continues to uphold the Oelschig reputation of quality product lines and excellent service. As a wholesale only business Oelschig Nursery, Inc. serves the coastal southeast from Brunswick and St. Simons to Charleston with outstanding quality and reliable service.

The photo is courtesy of Michael Martin. He says it is a "1940 group photo (HK Police and reservists) taken in the Central Police Station".
Michael's grandfather, AJ Savitsky, joined the Hong Kong Police Reserve in 1936.
I've labelled the men in the photo. If you recognise anyone, please could you let us know their name in the comments below?
Thanks & regards, David
AJ Savitsky is 2L.
Thanks to Cyril Martin, A J Savitsky's son, for the following additional information:
Sitting (front row):
Standing (second row):
Standing (third row):
Back row: Names not known to A. J. Savitsky
Names printed freehand on the photo mount by A.J. Savitsky. There are discrepencies in the second row naming as A.J. Savitsky is the 12th person in the second row (left to right) in the photograph, not 14th as named. (Sixteen reservists in the second row). It appears that two officers from the left and right hand side of the photo were cut out (reason unknown, perhaps to fit an album).
The photo was taken by "King's Studio" 16 Queens Rd. Hong Kong.
I believe the old Police Training School building in Mong Kok, in the background, is still there.
Bob Tatz writes:
I had a look at the list of policemen in the photo and did recognize one chap - Affanasieff. I somehow doubt that he was in Stanley, but I might be wrong. A policeman that was in Stanley was Veriga. I knew both of them before 1941.
If I was older I might have morre information to share, but on the other hand age has a habit of affecting memory! Cheers.
I don't see Affanasieff on the list of internees shown on the Stanley Camp list, so it looks like you're right. There are a few brief notes about Vic Veriga at http://gwulo.com/node/12936.
Henry Ching writes:
I wonder if "3P - P.C. (R) Strademoore" is Stradmoor (looks like him) who later joined the Kowloon Wharf Police, and whose daughter in more recent years joined the RHKPolice and rose to gazetted rank.
I'm not sure, but it sounds likely. To add to the confusion over his name, The Hong Kong War Diary website lists a "Stradmore Mr. Room 521 MCH" on the page of non-uniformed civilians.
Thanks for the extra input,
Regards, David
If it IS the same man, Stradmoor ended up commanding the KWP as a superintendent. They were a well trained and led independent force. A group of them, responding to an earlier robbery victim's tip-off, arrested double police muderer, murderer of a young female office worker and prolific street robber LAM Ho-yin in 1984. Hopefully he is still rotting in gaol.

Mexico Beach Mobile Home Rental Photos and Description
2 bedrooms on opposite ends, two full baths, sleeps 8
Home is pet friendly as are the Gulf County beaches. Imagine lounging on the beach with a special person, or pet and your favorite beverage watching a breathtaking sunset melt into the Gulf of Mexico. You can't see the ocean from my vacation home but you can HEAR it! Do not have to pay for the view either.
The house is a renovated 1994 MOBILE home only 1.5 blocks from the sugary white sand of secluded St Joe beach. It is not situated in a mobile home park, but rather, on a .3 acre lot in a quiet, peaceful residential neighborhood.
Home smells great! Living room has ceramic tile. Both bedrooms, along with kitchen have laminated flooring.
New for 2012 - Queen bed in master bedroom has a new, sturdy, 'better than a box-spring' steel foundation.New Adirondack rocking chairs and hammock are enticing during a lazy afternoon and evening. What a great way to rest and feel the cool, ocean breeze.
Vacation home has two bedrooms and two full bathrooms on opposite ends of the home. Great for privacy. It is large enough for two small families as it sleeps 8 comfortably.
Home is in the middle of the second block about 250 yards, from the beach. Easy stroll for most people.
1500 square feet of home which includes Florida room (enclosed porch). Home is large enough for 2 small families.
Free use of kayak stored at rental home.
These beaches are among the best in the United States. It doesn't get much better than this! The sand is so fine it literally squeaks when you walk on it…almost like it is purring.
Sheltered by St. Joseph Peninsula, Mexico Beach has little or no undertow. The whole family can swim safely, wade, snorkel, and find souvenir seashells.
The months with the least rain are October and November.
This area is a fisherman's paradise with St. Joe Bay, marina and Apalachicola Bay nearby. Scallop season usually kicks off in June and lasts until September. This area is not polluted and over commercialized.
A short thirty minute drive away or one mile by boat is St. Joseph Peninsula State park voted #1 beach in America in 2002 by Dr. Beach of the travel channel. Dogs are not allowed on state park beaches. Hairy men should not be, but they are allowed. Go figure!
A seven mile bike path winds through the beautiful scenery of Windmark Beach and is only one mile away.
The seafood here is delicious with several wonderful restaurants from which to choose.
A must visit and only thirty minute drive is the quaint, historic fishing village, of Apalachicola. Sorry, the sports illustrated swimsuit models left town in October 2011, but it is still worth a visit. SI used the beaches of St George Island for their photo shoot.
Apalachicola has many quaint shops including two on Avenue E and Blue. If you love antiques mixed with art, gifts and trendy accessories, these shops are for you. The men can sit outside on a bench or go eat oysters and sip their favorite beverage as you shop.
Come to the beaches to relax with your favorite book or pursue one of many recreational activities the area has to offer. This area is referred to as the forgotten coast as it is unspoiled like Old Florida free of heavy commercialization. Discover the forgotten coast before it becomes discovered by big business and high rise hotels.
The Cape San Blas lighthouse is located approximately 5 miles before St. Joseph Peninsula State Park on highway SR30E.
St. Vincent National Wildlife Refuge, in Franklin County, Florida, is an undeveloped barrier island just offshore from the mouth of the Apalachicola River, in the Gulf of Mexico. St Vincent has a large variety of exotic and endangered wildlife.
Come stay with us for the Port St. Joe Scallop Festival in August or the Mexico Beach Artificial Reef Association Annual King Mackerel Fishing Tournament in August.
Other upcoming Mexico Beach events include the Blast on the Bay Songwriters Festival. The Mexico Beach Art and Wine Festival is usually in October as well. Date for 2012 is Oct 6.
Great place on the panhandle for family and friends to enjoy the beach and wonderful sunshine.
You must be 24 to rent this home. You are welcome to send a note as there may be exceptions.
If you are a scuba diver, off Mexico Beach is the wreck of the Empire Mica, a British tanker sunk in 1942 by a U-boat. High speed internet connection is available in my vacation home thru Mediacom cable. Also have a wireless connection in the home. There is a wirelss hotspot in Dockside Cafe at the Port St. Joe Marina, Scoops and Mexico Beach Welcome Center.
A few golf courses are within 15 miles of vacation home.
Tyndall Air Force Base is 15 miles away so you are sure to see jets if you stay the week.
I accept credit card payments through Paypal and PPI.

About Mark Barnhart
A family man from Ohio investing retirement savings into a home in Florida. I tried to get my family to go on vacations when I was young but it was too expensive for a large family. I try to make this home affordable for large families.
Mark Barnhart purchased this mobile home in 2007
Why Mark Barnhart chose Mexico Beach
Quiet neighborhood, white sandy beaches and unspoiled by commercialism.
Guestbook comments from the owner
We throughly enjoyed our weeks stay here. As a family of 6 there was plenty of room and all the comforts of home. Mark went above and beyond to make sure everything for taken care of. From the simple things like dish soap to having a VERY CLEAN and organized home. I would definitely recommend this home away from home. We are already planning another trip.
My kids really enjoyed their spring break here.

A grandmother who set off a frantic search for three missing children earlier this week won't face any criminal charges.Instead, Gresham police said 58-year-old Barbara Cameron will undergo a mental health evaluation. Officers took her to Portland Adventist Hospital on a mental health hold.A Gresham police spokesman said officers consulted with the district attorney's office and mental health services after learning the circumstances of the children's all-night event.Cameron and the three kids left home Sunday afternoon, and then were reported missing by the children's mother at 9:52 p.m.Police sent out an alert to media, and a man watching FOX 12 saw information about Cameron's car.Less than two hours later, he saw that same car during the morning commute and called 911. John Stursa followed the car for about 10 minutes until police could stop Cameron.The children were safe and reunited with their mother."I've got kids too. I can only imagine how the parents felt," Stursa said.The grandmother did not want to talk to investigators.
