Cheese Library
Pont l'Evêque
One of France's oldest cheeses, Pont-l'Eveque (pohn leh veck) takes its name from a village in Normandy, the region where the cheese originated centuries ago. Historians believe that its early name was Angelot, a cheese mentioned in a 12th-century document as the dessert served at all the best tables.
A washed-rind cow's milk cheese, Pont-l'Eveque was initially a monastery cheese, made by Cistercian monks from their own cows for their own sustenance. Gradually they began to sell the cheese beyond their walls. This story is a familiar one in Europe, where monasteries have a long tradition of cheesemaking.
Barrel Aged Feta
One of our most popular cheeses, Arvanitis Barrel Aged Feta is a PDO cheese made from Sheep and oat milk that's made in Greece in the traditional way, brine aged in oak barrels for several months before release.
Arvanitis is one of the last remaining family owned traditional Greek dairy companies. Established in 1980, and now run by the 2nd generation, Arvanitis embodies the northern Greek mountain terroir. Located in the best dairy region (the province of Macedonia), Arvanitis is supplied by over 250 farms, many of whom are muli-generational families engaged in tradtional sheep and goat milk farming.
Brillat Savarin
Are you looking for a triple crème cheese, look no further than this store and staff all-time fave.
Rich in butterfat with a thin, edible, pillowy white rind, Brillat Savarin melts on the tongue with flavors of fresh cream and white mushroom.
Brillat was created in the 1890s as Excelsior or Délice des Gourmets. Cheesemaker Henri Androuët renamed it in the 1930s as an homage to 18th-century French gourmet, writer and political figure Brillat-Savarin.
Brillat-Savarin is produced all year round in Burgundy and Normandy. It comes in 5 inch wheels and approximately 1.5 inches high, and is aged for one to two weeks.
Cana de Cabra
Caña de Cabra
Reminiscent of Bucheron, this pasteurized, soft-ripened goat cheese log is made from the same rich Murcia goat milk found in our very popular Capricho de Cabra.
The flavor is creamy and mild, with the soft citric tang one expects from a fresh goat's milk cheese. Creamy and mild, with tangy citrus notes, this soft-ripened goat cheese log is much like the French Boucheron. Murcia is famous for its rich quality goat's milk. It's aged for a minimum of 21 days and is creamy, mild and intensifies as it ages.
Vacherin Mont d'Or
What's the perfect holiday cheese? Well IMHO, it's Vacherin Mont d'Or, an oozy, creamy, complex and stinky cheese from the French or Swiss Alps.
Served at room temperature or warmed up in a slow oven, Vacherin is a great party cheese, and goes well with crisp white, light red and sparkling wines.
Vacherin Mont d'Or is a seasonal cheese, only available in the winter months, made from the milk of mountain cows who have been brought down from their pastures for the season.
It's related to other mountain cheeses such as Emmentaler and Gruyère, but made in much smaller rounds and also treated differently, so that the cheese is almost liquid when fully ripe.
This unique artisan product has a deep woodsy smell and flavor, Vacherin has an almost liquid interior. It comes in a round pine box, with the cheese enclosed by a birch or spruce strip called a sangle, and a velvety reddish/brownish rind.
To eat the cheese, allow it to breathe at room temperature for several hours before slicing off the rind and enjoying the soft cheese inside, or warm it up,

Our version - called Petit Vaccarinus - is thermalized so that it passes FDA muster, but still delivers the wonderful stinky, oozy cheese you know and expect.
Considered one of the world's greatest cheeses Comté captures the essence of raw, mountain pasture-fed cow milk. Its full name is Gruyère de Comté, which should give you some indication of its flavor profile.
Comté is a French cheese produced in the Jura Massif region of Eastern France. The unpasteurised cow's milk used is mainly from Montbeliarde Cattle or French Simmental (or cross-breeds of the two). This hard mountain cheese is matured to perfection in the silence and darkness of special caves where the cheese gets its unique taste, texture and color. There are several maturing cellars in the region where Comté is ripened for a minimum of 4 months to 18 or 24 months. Comté is only made when the cows are outside grazing in the lush Alpine pastures; when it's cooler and the cows aren't on pasture, their milk is used for the fabulous Vacherin Mont d'Or.
The cheeses are made by the farmer, who then transfers the 90 lb rounds to a ripening cellar, or frutière. Each frutière has a slightly different recipe for aging the cheese to perfection, so in essence, each wheel of Comté tastes different (hundreds of farmers, dozens of aging rooms, different breeds, different times of year for the milk, etc., etc.)
Vlaskaas. This pasteurized cow milk cheese is richer than Gouda, delivering bold flavors and great meltability. Try it in a cheese plate with fruit, sliced in a sandwich, or melted (grilled cheese sammy or as the filling in an omelet).
The recipe for this cheese from Flanders dates back many centuries. Its name means Flax Cheese, owing not to an ingredient but to the plant that dominates the local countryside. In the Middle Ages it was quite popular and always served at the annual oogstfeest (Flemish harvest festival). During the harvest celebration the traditional meal was slijtepap, fresh multigrain bread with thick slices of Vlaskaas.
Similar to Gouda but richer, creamier and deeper yellow in color, Vlaskaas' purple rind distinguishes it from all other cheeses.
Gold medal winner at the 2004 World Championship Cheese Contest.
Moliterno al Tartufo
Produced on the Italian island of Sardinia Pecorino Moliterno al Tartufo is a raw sheep's milk cheese shot through with thick veins of black truffle.
Unlike most other truffled cheeses, the truffle paste is infused after Moliterno has been aged to perfection from 5 to 8 months, so that the cheese develops its own character before the truffles are injected. Injecting the truffle paste into the Moliterno is a delicate operation.
Though the truffles are only visible in the "veins," the truffle flavor permeates throughout the entire paste of this amazing cheese. During the aging process, oil and vinegar are applied to the cheese's rind to prevent weight loss.
Fiscalini bandage wrapped Cheddar
Fiscalini Bandaged Cheddar Award winning cheesemaker Jorge Mariano Gonzalez handcrafts and inspects every 60 pound wheel of Fiscalini Farms' bandage-wrapped raw-milk cheddar. It is quite rare for an English-style farmhouse cheddar like this to be produced in the U.S.
All natural ingredients are used in the cheesemaking process. Made from Fiscalini's own milk and aged for 18 months on the property, this cheese was voted "Best Farmhouse Cheese" at the 2002 American Cheese Society Awards. It's a wonderful example of the success of the artisan cheese movement in the U.S. today. Rich, buttery and sharp, Fiscalini Farmstead Cheddar is a world-class cheese.
Montasio is a raw cow's milk cheese from NE Italy. Montasio is the only DOP cheese of Friuli-Venezia Giulia, specifically Carnia, the northern portion of the province of Udine where the Alps meet the Adriatic. The cheese originated about 300 years ago in and around Tolmezzo, supposedly the invention of a lonely Alpine monk with a herd of cows to milk and some free time on his hands. Today the official production zone also extends to portions of the Veneto, but Friulians justly claim Montasio as their own.

State: Man charged in '69 murder wanted to teach boy 'a lesson'
Trial in 43-year-old Mass. slaying gets started
Forty-three years after his body was found bound and gagged in a field, the murder case of John McCabe is being argued in a Massachusetts courtroom.
Opening statements in the trial of one of three men charged in connection with the slaying got under way in Middlesex District Court on Tuesday.
Michael Ferreira of Salem, N.H., is charged with murder in the September 1969 death of McCabe, 15, of Tewksbury.
McCabe died of asphyxiation after being bound and gagged and left in a Lowell field.
"The evidence will show it was jealousy. They were going to teach him a lesson," prosecutor Tom O'Reilly said.
Prosecutors say McCabe was kidnapped after leaving a dance and assaulted by three older teens after he flirted with the girlfriend of one of them.
O'Reilly said Ferreira told the other teens involved, "If anyone says anything, I will kill (them.)"
The men were charged after another man, Edward Allen Brown, told police he knew what happened to McCabe.
Defense attorney Eric Wilson said Brown's account is "a fabrication" and the story "doesn't fit the evidence."
Wilson also said police never followed up on two phone calls to local priests, in which a man said "I killed that boy."
In one call the man claimed he had the boy's belt, which police never recovered.
"Police overlooked things that will haunt you," Wilson told the jury.
The now 58-year-old Ferreira was arrested in April 2011. He has pleaded not guilty.

Outfit Post: Sweatshirt Chic
It's a rarity to be able to shop by myself these days, let alone not think about prices, or buying things for the kids/house so you can imagine my excitement when I opened my gift and two shiny Nordy's cards were staring out at me.
It helped that a few weeks prior I had run into Nordy's to return some pants, completed my transaction and was walking toward the elevator when I'm sure I let out an audible gasp.
There was this wicked looking sweatshirt in all it's leathery and shimmery glory.
The metallic sheen woven throughout add that touch of sparkle I'm always looking for while the faux leather shoulder panels and zipper detailing give me a much needed edge for a Tuesday morning.
I like that both of those elements combine to make what would be a "simple grey sweatshirt" as chic as it is comfortable. And y'all know I am all about that.

I have always wondered what was going to happen to technology in the future. That is why I am writing about the Future of Technology, because the future and our technology are both important. Did you know that every year human knowledge doubles and computer power goes up exponentially? Our technology is literally advancing faster than we can advance! Our technology may soon be smarter than it's creators.
Usually when people think of the future they think of way far off thousands of years. When I think of the future I think of the next 20-50 years. In the close future, cars may drive themselves and we may have elevators into space. What you will read will show you 5 hot technologies that will change the future in the next 20-50 years.
- Carbon Nanotubes: Carbon Nanotubes will allow us to continue to add more and more transistors onto our computer processors, without them We wouldn't be able to continue at the current rate. They will also be a base technology of things such as long life batteries, flat screen monitors and even poles for a possible elevator into space. They are also strong, 10-100 times stronger than steel and they are the by-product of certain chemical reactions and products being made. Nanotubes can form and operate as pretty much any technology, they can also be grown under certain conditions. In the future Carbon Nanotubes may replace oil as the basic material all advanced human technologies require to operate.
- Biosensors will revolutionize the way hospitals and medical facilities operate. Thats because they will be able to act like an independent doctor, it scans your blood for diseases and immediately attacks them with the appropriate drugs. They will do more than that though, when people are in need of new organs Biosensors may be able to acts as those organs. They so this all without the help of people. It is possible that Biosensors will also be able to scan and protect you from biowarfare a possible threat of the future. All foods may also be tested with biosensors. It will be like living in a society where no one gets sick.
- Self Driving cars, will change the way you drive. You won't have to drive because the computer in the car will do it for you. And they are closer to reality than you might think, forklifts already use autopilots to drive around warehouses, snowplows use an assist feature and auto driving cars have been tested in the desert and cities. You may even see them on the road as soon as 2025. These cars may be controlled by GPS, laser sensors, and infrared devices. All cars will be aware of each other and intersections where you stop will be a thing of the past. Toyota has developed self driving cars that don't slow down or stop at intersections they are all aware of each other and they drive just right so that none of them hit each other. But will people accept the idea? Some people enjoy driving and others don't want the danger of being hit by one in an accident. It may be possible but it may not go on as planned.
- The fuel cell, some are based on CARBON NANOTUBES (see how versatile they are) and they will replace batteries, generators and car engines. Many fuels cell run on hydrogen and others on methanol. These are both cheap and better for the environment than traditional combustion engines in cars today. Car companies are spending millions researching fuel cells, because they know it's the future of cars. Hydrogen is a fuel that can be produced cheaply and it is renewable and found everywhere. Fuel cells will defiantly revolutionize and change the face of our future.
- Robots. When most people think of robots, they think of large metal boxes with low growly voices, that though is not the future of robots. Many robots will be designed to look and talk exactly like humans. There is a small possibility that some will think similar to humans. Today most robots can't think but they can walk and some can run. One day the world of advanced computers and the world of advanced robotics will combine and robots will be smart. I can assure you that one day you will have a robot that can think for itself. Unless you are blind, you die, humans destroy themselves or robots that think for themselves are invisible.
The future looks bright! And thats only a small part of it. Later on some other day I will post more on the future and what it holds for us.

By Dr. Farzanna Haffizulla
It's 2am on a Saturday morning. You awake in a panic. Your body is pulsing with electric jolts and your mind is racing uncontrollably! It is at this quiet, undisturbed hour of the early morning that it hits you: am I where I want to be in life? Did I meet my professional and personal goals? You close your eyes and the image of who you imaged yourself to be is vivid again. This image is so powerful that you awaken the next morning energized, ready to make this dream a reality! How do you continue to achieve our life goals? What is needed to create a mindset for success?
As working professionals, juggling your family life, careers and community activities, you are faced with the looming question: are you happy with your status? Have you been successful, and do you see more success ahead? It is important to realize that everyone has their own set of priorities in life with different permutations of family, work, scholarship and leadership. While there is no "one size fits all" solution, there are common ideals that allow professionals to maintain a mindset for success. This allows you to ultimately achieve all of your life's dreams and goals.
There are six steps to ensure personal happiness and professional success. These steps are the basic foundation of success in any endeavor, especially as a busy professional. It is vital to stay energized and focused on your goals always adapting to new variables that may be thrown your way.
1) Stay Positive: The first ingredient to success is maintaining and emanating strong positive energy from within, and surrounding yourself with positive people. Drawing from your own inner strength and not depending on external sources of confidence building ensures a continuous supply of "success fuel": positive energy. Meditation, reconnecting with your spirituality, self –reflection and engaging in activities such as exercise, sports and a hobby of your choice are ways to cultivate your inner sanctum of positive energy. Though it may seem difficult to smile or stay happy during times of social or financial difficulty, remember that everything happens for a good reason. Live without regrets and allow life to teach you; learn from these lessons. A well-known adage is "A fool is one who makes the same mistake twice." Visualize and state your goals out loud. This strengthens your inner visualization, making it a more concrete, definitive goal.
2) Maintain Academic Discipline: Develop self-discipline with regards to education. Treat your academic life with utmost respect and continue to pursue higher learning. This gives you an edge over others and allows you to find an unexplored, untapped niche in your profession that can allow for tremendous success. Tailor your education to suit your goals and align yourself with mentors who can nudge you in the right direction and give you valuable experience.
3) Make a Plan: Plan out your goals and put them into action. Create a work/life balance plan that factors in other aspects of your life that are important to you: family life, hobbies and other interests. Think about how your eventual goal will affect these other "spheres" of your life and decide where you are able to compromise. It is important to involve your significant other in these talks to avoid surprises and conflict. You must be pro-active in pursuit of your goals. If you continue to be consistent, responsible and show an edge and insight unsurpassed by your peers, you will shine and succeed.
4) Be Prepared: Prepare yourself for surprise scenarios that may interrupt your journey toward your goal. This could be a company upheaval or financial "hiccup." Take these changes in stride, never losing sight of your goal, but be open to modifying your approach. If problems arise, regroup to decide if you still want the same goals or if they need to be altered to suit your current situation. Your life is in your hands!
5) Be Humble: Never violate the cardinal rule of stepping on others to get to the top; this will eventually circle back around to you and has a negative snowball effect. Remain humble throughout your journey and accept criticism in stride. Winston Churchill once said, "Criticism may not be agreeable, but it is necessary. It fulfills the same function as pain in the human body. It calls attention to an unhealthy state of things."
6) Self-reflection and Re-evaluation: Frequent re-evaluation of your "happiness" thermometer is a good way to recognize if you are where you want to be in life. More angry or sad days than happy ones indicate that a change may be needed. Self-reflection, re-visiting your goals list and talking with your significant other is your next step in strategizing your move. Take a comprehensive worldly approach toward achieving your goals. Talk and interact with others who have already lived your goal and learn from their mistakes. Be willing to adapt to the new "climate" in your business life. As when the economy took a tumble years ago, instead of licking your wounds, remain open to new approaches within your area of expertise. This could be your golden opportunity to re-energize your career and professional goals.
There are many different ways to be a successful professional, even with the demands of other aspects of living. Choosing the best path depends on instinct, which must be honed over the years, and buttressed by the support you get from those closest to you. Open your heart and draw strength from within and envelop your life with positive thinking. You make your own mindset. The power has always been yours to use! You will learn through experimentation and good old-fashioned trial by error. Throughout your journey, keep this lesson at the forefront: With humility and drive you can yoke and harness your own inner strength as an adult and as a working professional, achieving all your life goals.

Lutz's 1st career HR lifts Reds over Brewers 5-1
Don Lutz hit his first career home run, a three-run drive off the right-field foul pole in the second inning that led the Cincinnati Reds over the Milwaukee Brewers 5-1 Sunday for a three-game sweep.
Lutz, who made his big league debut on April 29, homered off Wily Peralta (3-3), and pinch-hitter Xavier Paul homered in the seventh, sending Milwaukee to its fourth straight loss and ninth in 10 games.
Bronson Arroyo (3-4) ended a four-start winless streak, allowing five hits in 6 2-3 scoreless innings with one walk and five strikeouts. He had been 0-3 since beating Philadelphia on April 15.
Sam LeCure struck out Jeff Bianchi looking to end the seventh, Jonathan Broxton allowed an unearned run in the eighth and Aroldis Chapman pitched the ninth.
Peralta (3-3) gave up four runs - three earned - five hits and two walks in six innings.
Dusty Baker got his 1,603rd win as a manager, moving past Hall of Famer Fred Clarke into sole possession of 17th on baseball's career list, 16 behind Ralph Houk for 16th place.
Brandon Phillips and Jay Bruce opened the second inning with singles and, one out later, Lutz lined a 1-0 pitch 366 feet off the pole.
Cincinnati scored an unearned run in the third. After a throwing error by Peralta on a comebacker, Bruce hit a possible inning-ending, double-play grounder, but shortstop Jen Segura's relay sailed over first baseman Yuniesky Betancourt for another error.
Paul led off the seventh with second homer of the season, a 404-foot drive into the right-field seats on an 0-2 pitch from Mike Fiers, recalled from the minor leagues on Saturday and making his first big league appearance since April 16. Paul has four pinch-homers, including two this season.
Alex Gonzalez scored on Ryan Hanigan's passed ball in the eighth.

Geno Smith will start for Jets
FLORHAM PARK, N.J. — Geno Smith is the new face of the franchise for the New York Jets.
Well, at least for the opening game of the season.
Beyond that, we'll see.
The rookie quarterback will start in the opener at home Sunday against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. The team finally confirmed Wednesday what had been expected since Mark Sanchez injured his right shoulder in a preseason game against the Giants on Aug. 24.
"They'll try to rattle my cage," Smith said about the Buccaneers. "I expect those guys to come out fired up and they want to make a statement. They've got a rookie quarterback and they'll want to hit me and get me off my game, but I expect those things. And I look forward to it."
But, will Greg Schiano's defense be able to unnerve him?
"No," Smith said with a confident smile.
Smith, who had an up-and-down preseason, was the team's second-round draft pick out of West Virginia after he was projected by many to be selected early in the opening round. After Smith threw three interceptions and took a safety in three-plus quarters against the Giants, it was widely assumed Sanchez had won the job. But Rex Ryan chose to put Sanchez in the game in the fourth quarter — and he suffered the injury that could sideline him several weeks.
"We realize that a rookie quarterback and all that, that's certainly a challenge," Ryan said. "I think our guys are ready to rally behind Geno, and the big thing we've told Geno is, 'You just have to be part of the solution."'
Despite announcing Smith as the starter for this week, Ryan wouldn't commit to him as the long-term guy under center. It was an approach that was echoed by owner Woody Johnson and general manager John Idzik.
"We'll always put the best player we can on the field on Sunday, and that will continue," Johnson said. "The competition's ongoing."
With Smith stepping into the starter's role, it makes Sanchez's status with the team unclear. Ryan has still never declared a winner to the competition — and he might not ever do so. If Smith can be solid during Sanchez's absence, he could make it hard for Ryan to pull him. And, by never saying whether Smith or Sanchez had won the job, Ryan would never technically have benched the anointed starter.
While many look at the move as the team moving forward with a new quarterback, Idzik was asked if, when healthy, Sanchez has a chance to be the starter again.
"Yes, of course he does," Idzik said.
The Jets also have the inexperienced Matt Simms, who had a terrific preseason, and recently signed journeyman Brady Quinn. But with Sanchez not ready to play Sunday, the choice for Ryan, Idzik and offensive coordinator Marty Mornhinweg was easy for this week.
"We'll go through some ups and downs, I guarantee you that," Mornhinweg told the team's website. "Knowing Geno, hopefully there will be more ups than there are downs."
Smith was off to a great start in training camp, going several practices without throwing an interception and outperforming Sanchez on some days. But Smith sprained his right ankle in the third quarter of the Jets' preseason opener at Detroit and didn't play in the second game against Jacksonville because of the injury. He started against the Giants, with the general thought being he could potentially secure the starting job with a solid performance.
Instead, Smith showed his inexperience during a miserable performance — hurt in part by his ailing ankle — that appeared to tip the tightly contested competition in Sanchez's favor.
"I don't think I've been rushed," said Smith, who took 69 snaps in preseason games. "They wouldn't put me out there if they didn't think I was ready."
But the quarterback situation changed when Sanchez took a crunching hit to the shoulder from the Giants' Marvin Austin.
"We all regret that Mark got hurt, and obviously that's unfortunate," Ryan said. "It's unfortunate that it happened, but these things do happen and we've moved on."
The Jets have said only that Sanchez — the starter since his rookie season in 2009 — was day to day with simply a "shoulder injury." The fact he hasn't practiced since, and the Jets signing Quinn on Monday were signs that Sanchez's injury was more serious than the team was initially letting on. But placing Sanchez on injured reserve doesn't appear to be an option at the moment.
"We're not looking at that," Idzik said.
Smith said his ankle is "steadily improving," and is "a ways away" from where it was in training camp, when he wasn't able to fully drive the ball as he planted his foot.
"Nothing is given in this league," Smith said about needing to prove himself each week. "I'm going to go out there and I'm going to do that."
Sanchez was once considered the future of the franchise, a terrific talent with GQ looks, and consecutive trips to the AFC title game in his first two years drew natural comparisons to Joe Namath. But Sanchez struggled over the next few seasons, including an NFL-leading 52 turnovers the last two years, and failed to develop into the elite passer the Jets had hoped.
Ryan benched Sanchez for a game last season and it appeared his days in New York were numbered. His contract, however, and the $8.25 million in guarantees for this year made him unmovable. Still some have speculated that the Jets could simply cut Sanchez and move forward entirely with Smith.
"Mark is going to be on the team," Johnson said. "I don't think there's a question."
It appeared in spring that the Jets would let Sanchez compete with veteran David Garrard for the starting job. During the draft in April, the Jets went for defense with their two first-round picks, selecting cornerback Dee Milliner and defensive lineman Sheldon Richardson. But when their pick came up in the second round and Smith was still available, they jumped at the chance to take him.
In May, knee trouble caused Garrard to retire, leaving the competition between Sanchez and Smith.
A few months later, Smith has the opportunity — starting Sunday against Tampa Bay — to try to prove he might be the type of franchise-changing quarterback the Jets have been looking for.
"I'd like to be," Smith said. "That's a tough question, but honestly, I'd love to be the franchise quarterback here. I think that's the reason they brought me here."
NOTES: Ryan announced that Vladimir Ducasse would start at left guard, and Antonio Allen would start at safety opposite Dawan Landry. Those were the two other main competitions in training camp. ... Simms will serve as the backup to Smith over Quinn on Sunday.

The Northern Virginia commercial real-estate market resembles nothing so much as an overweight, punch-drunk fighter. Reeling from the dot-com bust and the Sept. 11 marketplace, commercial rental space availability swelled as surviving Internet companies sublet space they had taken on as part of unrealistic expansion plans.
According to real-estate firm Cassidy & Pinkard's fourth quarter survey of office space, during the year, Northern Virginia vacancy rates more than tripled, going from 4.4 percent to 14.3 percent. Though the 14.3-percent vacancy rate is bad enough, the number blends less-affected areas like Arlington (with 9.2-percent vacancy) with areas like Tysons Corner (with 19-percent vacancy) that were hit harder.
The Costar real-estate listing-service vacancy numbers are slightly different because of the way in which the two firms measure vacancies. Costar puts Northern Virginia December 2001 vacancy rate at 13.5 percent. In the first two months, its statistics reveal a slight increase in vacancy, with current availability at 14.58 percent.
IT IS TEMPTING to place blame for Northern Virginia's commercial real-estate vacancy woes on the post Sept. 11 environment. The reality is the real-estate market's problem is a dot-com, dot-bomb phenomenon. Mary Petersen, Cassidy & Pinkard senior vice president, said that her firm "kept waiting for the other shoe to drop after the NASDAQ plunge (in November 2000). ... However, by the end of 2000 ... the vacancy rate was just 4.4 percent." It was when the sublet space came on the market that the situation changed. Bob Howard of Wellborn Management said, "A couple years ago, if you had a space listed in the morning, you would get it (sold) in the afternoon."
The abundance of rental space has created a renters' market. Tysons Corner in particular has been turned on its head. According to Cassidy & Pinkard's report, some properties that had rental rates per square foot in the high $30s and mid-$40s at the end of 2000 could, in December 2001, be had for rental rates in the low $30s.
Howard went on to say that "the landlord community is not suffering yet and probably won't." Many tech firms had to "have two years of deposits in some cases secured by letters of credit." If the tenant business failed, Howard said "financial institutions had to ante up the funds."
THOUGH COSTAR'S EARLY NUMBERS show a slight worsening in vacancy rates, the numbers show a slowing in the commercial market vacancy slide. New building projects are constrained to build to suit as developers wait to see what will happen next.
Howard was hopeful as he felt defense- and security-associated businesses would eventually fill the rental spaces. As Howard put it, "People ... will have to come where the space is." Cassidy & Pinkard's fourth-quarter 2001 report predicts that security and defense increases "will not likely ripple through the market until mid-2002."
Jack O'Donohue at Stratford Associates said that when the market changes and the security and defense firms look to get rental space, the market "within NOVA would grow outward from D.C." O'Donohue said traditionally the market has followed this pattern, and he saw no reason to expect the market not to follow that trend.
Cassidy & Pinkard showed vacancy rates in the Reston/Herndon area increased through the year from 5 percent to 19.3 percent.
Loudoun County's vacancy rate began the year at 4.1 percent and finished the year at 16 percent.
In the area around Route 28 South, vacancy rates started the year at 9.4 percent and ended the year at 16.6 percent.
In the 50/66 corridor, which extends westward from Merrifield to Fairfax, the commercial vacancy ranged, at year's end, from 10.7 to 15.4 percent.
In Alexandria, according to Cassidy & Pinkard's survey, through the year vacancy rates increased from 5.8 percent to 9.4 percent
Arlington's vacancy rates, as reported by Cassidy & Pinkard's survey, increased through the year from 3.4 percent to 9.2 percent.

This stew is amazing.
Trying exciting new recipes is always fun. When I saw this North-African modeled stew, I was intrigued and made a mental note to buy the ingredients on my next grocery trip. It just sounded so different from anything that I usually make. As it came together beautifully in the kitchen, it became this incredible marriage of spices and ingredients that resulted in heavenly smells wafting through the house. I was sold!
After reading the recipe reviews, I decided to make some major changes to improve the dish. You can see the original recipe HERE. My biggest changes included using red onion and canned chickpeas, adding garlic and chicken to the dish, sauteing the onion and garlic before adding the other ingredients and also cooking the stew on the stove top instead of a slow-cooker. Several of the reviews noted that there wasn't much flavor, and that all the ingredients sort of became the same consistency in the slow cooker. Because of this, I added extra flavor by using red onion and by sauteing the onion along with garlic before adding the other ingredients. This worked flawlessly and the vegetable broth deglazed the pan perfectly, adding even more flavor.
Also, cooking this on the stove top kept the ingredients from becoming the same consistency. The squash and carrots still had a little bite to them, and the flavor was incredible. The cumin, saffron and fresh ginger in this stew really push it over the top in the deliciousness department!
Brad and I found the finished stew to be packed with flavor, and upon first bite, I even got a "Wow!" from Brad. I think he was a fan. :)
Luckily, there are left-overs in the fridge, which makes me happy. I might serve them over brown rice tonight, or I just might serve it in a bowl all on its own again.
This is a keeper! Bon Appetit, my friends!

- Place the chicken breast in an oven-proof dish, drizzling it with about 1 tbsp. of the extra virgin olive oil. Season with salt and pepper and bake for approximately 40 - 45 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through. Cut into small bite-sized pieces and set to the side.
- In a heavy-bottomed stock pot or dutch oven over medium heat, drizzle 2 tbsp extra virgin olive oil. Add the red onion and saute until tender and slightly golden brown. Next, add the garlic and continue to saute for 1 additional minute.
- Deglaze the pan by adding the vegetable broth to the pot, scraping up the brown bits from the bottom.
- Add the squash, carrots, lentils, chickpeas, chicken, tomato paste, ginger, cumin, salt, saffron and pepper. Stir together well.
- Put on the lid, leaving it ajar, and simmer over lowish heat until the squash are tender and the lentils have begun to break down, about 45 minutes. While it's simmering, stir the stew every now and then, to make sure the bottom doesn't burn. If the stew starts to become too thick, you may need to add a little additional water during the process. (I ended up adding about 2 cups of water.)
- Just before serving, stir in the lime juice. Serve sprinkled with peanuts and cilantro.
Tips & Notes
- Make Ahead Tip: Cover and refrigerate for up to 3 days or freeze for up to 1 month.
- Note: Considered the world's most expensive spice, saffron contributes a pungent flavor and intense yellow color. It is sold in threads and powdered form.

FFmpeg Compilation Guide
This page contains a list of resources which describe the necessary steps required for compiling FFmpeg from scratch.
The following page provides generic compilation and installation instructions: Generic compilation guide
Attention: If you are using gcc-4.2 please read ticket 1464 first, and try to update your compiler. A message to that effect is printed on running configure off the master branch.
FFmpeg and its dependencies can also be installed with Homebrew or MacPorts.
- CompilationGuide/MinGW – MinGW Compilation Guide for compiling FFmpeg with Windows/MinGW/MSYS.
- CompilationGuide/CrossCompilingForWindows – Cross compiling for Windows is sometimes easier than using MSYS+MinGW.
- CompilationGuide/WinRT - Compiling FFmpeg for Windows Apps (Windows 10 and Windows 8.1)
- CompilationGuide/MSVC - Compiling FFmpeg using MSVC (see also the instructions on the reference web page)
Other Platforms

Performance Tips
There are numerous avenues to extract maximum performance out of FFmpeg when it is built from source. The following list describes some of them:
- If using GCC, consider adding -ftree-vectorize to --extra-cflags. Most recent versions of GCC do not miscompile FFmpeg with the auto-vectorizer enabled, and can easily reap a general 1-2% increase in performance from a FATE run (make fate-rsync; make fate), with gains varying across the codebase and compiler version. However, the project does not currently maintain a list of compiler versions under which the vectorizer works correctly, since even recent releases like 4.8.0 had problems. Therefore, configure by default disables the auto-vectorizer on GCC, and it must be enabled by the user explicitly if desired, such as via the method outlined above. It is highly advised to test at least a FATE run to ensure that things work correctly when the auto-vectorizer is turned on.
- If using GCC/Clang, consider adding -march=native to --extra-cflags to make slightly better use of your hardware. Alternatively, for a more general solution, examine the --arch and --cpu options. Gains are variable, and usually quite small. However, this is usually even more safe than the above, and is thus listed here.
- Depending on your use case, --enable-hardcoded-tables may be a useful option. It results in an increase of approximately 15% in the size of libavcodec, the main library impacted by this change. It enables savings in table generation time, done once at codec initialization, since by hardcoding the tables, they do not need to be computed at runtime. However, the savings are often negligible (~100k cycles is a typical number) especially when amortized over the entire encoding/decoding operation. By default, this is not enabled. Improvements are being made to the runtime initialization, and so over time, this option will have an impact on fewer and fewer codecs.
- Other options may be found by examining ./configure --help.

According to the Center for Disease Control (CDC) youth violence is a public health crisis in the United States. The recent dramatic incidents of school violence is not the only events that are creating fear and trauma for our youth.
• One in five high school students report being bullied at school.
• Almost a third of high school students report being in a physical fight each year.
• In 2008 more than 650,000 young people ages 10 to 24 were treated in emergency departments for injuries sustained from violence.
• Homicide is the second leading cause of death among young people. An average of 16 student age individuals are murdered every day.
What can be done to get to the root of this problem?
The David Lynch Foundation has a solution that's working. Over the past 7 years the David Lynch Foundation has been responsible for providing funding for schools that has enabled more than 250,000 at-risk students to learn the TM technique.
Watch this short video about what's happening all over the world through the introduction of the TM program in schools by the David Lynch Foundation.
David Lynch:
"You know I remember when I first heard that some little kid brings a gun into school and then you start hearing all these problems.
And then they introduced this technique where the students can dive within and enliven that inner happiness, inner intelligence, inner creativity and love. They see that the problems start evaporating."

Q: My whole family has tried to duplicate my grandma's pound cake recipe without any success. It tastes the same but doesn't rise and if becomes a really heavy dense cake. Any idea why the cake won't rise? I want to be able to figure this out and make it for her. She just broke her hip and she is 93 so who knows how much longer we have.
—Beverly Richards, Mount Prospect
A: I wanted to run your letter not just because your pound cake goes flat — though that's a problem — but because I think it's so important for families to chat among themselves about foods they love and swap recipes whenever they can. Too many people wait too long — until loved ones are dead and kitchens dismantled — before searching, often in vain, for Mom's piccalilli, or Aunt Jo's waterzooi or Brother's chili.
Talk it up, people. Before it is too late.
You are lucky. Your grandmother is still alive. A quick exchange of emails shows you've got an "official" recipe. Your grandmother's daughters made the pound cake successfully from it at one but can't do so now. Sugar may or may not be the culprit, you think.
"Everyone has given up on it," you write.
OK. But what about your grandmother? Has she given up? I would approach her, if at all possible, and tell her your pound cake won't rise. Did she ever have that problem? What did she do about it?
Your recipe is titled "Imperial Pound Cake." It calls for one pound of Imperial brand margarine. I talked it over with Paula Shoyer of Chevy Chase, Md. She's got plenty of experience baking with margarine as author of "The Kosher Baker: Over 160 Dairy-free Recipes from Traditional to Trendy."
Shoyer zeroed in on how your grandmother may have made the recipe, especially how she measured amounts. Did she use a measuring cup designed for dry or wet ingredients, or something else? Was her 1 cup a rounded measure or did she level it off? What kind of flour did she use? Did she add any baking powder? And what size eggs were available to her? Modern recipes call for "large" egg because they are a standard size, Shoyer noted, but cooks years ago used whatever size egg they had on-hand.
All these questions are important because "official" recipes change with time. People tailor ingredients to their taste, techniques to their abilities, baking or cooking time to their appliances. Your grandmother's pound cake surely evolved into a treat truly hers. Ask her about that. Somewhere, unwritten and between the lines of the recipe, may be the solution.
Shoyer, for one, recommends adding another egg to the recipe to see if it will give the cake batter more lift. She also notes that a pound cake by nature is going to be pretty hefty in terms of texture so don't expect some delicate airy thing.
I get a number of questions about lost family recipes. Here are some general tips folks can use in that search:
1.Go to the source if you can, even if earlier requests for recipes have been denied. What have you got to lose? Tell the cook you want him or her to be around for a long time making that wonderful family dish but, eventually, someone else in the family will have to take it on. And you need his or her help to keep the family tradition alive.
2.Convene a family pow-wow and talk to everyone, especially the older members of the family, about the recipe. What do they remember about it? Can they visualize the cook making it? What struck them most about the process: Aromas? Flavors? The messiness of it all?
3.If the cook's kitchen is still intact, check out the cookbooks and recipe boxes for clues to that elusive dish. The recipe may be scribbled out on a piece of paper and used as a bookmark in some food-splattered book. Did the cook have a favorite cookbook he or she turned to often? Check that volume particularly closely.
Here's Beverly Richards' family recipe for "Imperial Pound Cake," in case curious or ambitious readers want to take a crack at solving your problem. Send those solutions to me and I'll forward them to her, OK?
Imperial pound cake
1 pound each: margarine, powdered sugar
6 eggs
3 cups cake flour, sifted and measured for 3 cups
1 teaspoon vanilla
1.Cream margarine and sugar. Add 1 egg at a time beating well after each. Add sifted flour and vanilla.
2.Bake in 10-inch tube pan in a 325-degree oven for 1 hour and 15 minutes.

Corpse Party: Book of Shadows Brings the Scares to PSN Next Week
See this picture up here? Yeah, that's the tamest screenshot we could find. If you can't handle that, then you'll want to steer clear of Corpse Party: Book of Shadows when it comes out on the PSN next week.
But we're horror nuts over here at Arcade Sushi, so we're all in for the creepiness! XSEED's Tom Lipschultz has posted on the PlayStation Blog about the digital release of the sequel to Corpse Party, a horror/adventure game that came out for the PSP.
He says that Book of Shadows is full of standalone stories that are broken up into chapters, each focusing on a student and the supernatural happenings at their school. The chapter titles are Seal, Demise, Encounter, Purgatory, Shangri-La, Mire, Tooth, and Blood Drive. We can only imagine what kind of messed up stories these chapters will contain.
But you don't have to imagine since Lipschultz has provided spoiler-free descriptions of each chapter on the blog. Check out the trailer below to see whether or not you've got the stomach for all of the school-related horror when it comes out on January 15th, 2013 for the PSP and PS Vita.

National women's league launches in Bosnia and Herzegovina
Friday 16 August 2013
Article summary
The first united women's national league begins in Bosnia and Herzegovina this weekend thanks to the assistance of UEFA and its women's football development programme.
Article top media content
Article body
A historic moment has arrived for football in Bosnia and Herzegovina with this weekend's kick-off of the first united women's national Premier League. UEFA has made a significant contribution to getting the united competition underway in conjunction with the Bosnia and Herzegovina Football Federation (NFSBiH), as part of the UEFA women's football development Programme (WFDP).
Eight teams will take part in the league – five from the NFSBiH league: SFK 2000 Sarajevo, ZNK Zenica Čelik, ZNK Gradina Srebrenik, ZNK Salt City Tuzla and ZNK Mladost Nević Polje; and three from the league of the Republic of Srpska: Banja Luka, Radnik Bumurang (Bijeljina) and Mladost Novi Grad (Bosanski Novi).
The competition will be played over 14 rounds from autumn to spring. Until now, the women's championship had been played in the separate leagues, with the national champion emerging from a final round.
Thanks to the new league, women's football is sure to receive a massive boost at all levels in Bosnia and Herzegovina as part of the country's campaign to raise interest in the women's game and attract more women and girls to take part in the sport, either as players, referees, volunteers or officials.
In their WFDP project, the NFSBiH aimed to create a united women's Premier League, and pledged to help create stable clubs who will be able to attract youth players and sponsors. The new competition will also promote women's football through the development of stronger clubs, and another key objective is to increase both the number of registered female players and the number of registered women's football clubs – while at the same time promoting key values such as tolerance and fair play.
The new Premer League is seen as a long-term project with new clubs joining each season – thereby giving more women and young girls an opportunity to play football in a country which has a great passion for the game. Close links will be formed between the national association and regional bodies, and UEFA's financial assistance is seen as essential in helping the new competition and women's football in Bosnia and Herzegovina look forward to a sound future. A more long-term goal is the creation of a second division, along with regional Under-19 and U17 competitions.
SFK 2000 Sarajevo has enjoyed success in women's competitions, and has won the title ten times in a row. The club is confident of further success in the new Premier League, but is aware that competition will be stiff. "This is a major breakthrough for women's soccer, and after the first season of the joint league, the results will be visible," said Samira Hurem, coach of both Sarajevo and the national team, who finished fourth in their qualifying group for UEFA Women's EURO 2013.
"Our goal is for our clubs, as well as the national teams, to have more success in the UEFA competitions," she added. "More young girls will also be 'stepping into the water' to play football."
Earlier this month, SFK 2000 Sarajevo hosted qualifying round Group 1 matches in this season's UEFA Women's Champions League, and finished second, narrowly missing out on qualification after beating Cardiff City FC and FC NSA Sofia but losing to Konak Belediyespor.

Lesser Town Bridge Towers - Mostecká Street, Lesser Town
Mostecká Street, Lesser Town
From Mostecká street we can access the Charles birdge through a gate between two Les-ser Town Bridge Towers. The Romanesque lower tower is the oldest part of the whole bridge, the higher is one is on the other hand the youngest one out of all three defensive towers.
The Romanesque prismatic argillite tower had probably been built in the early second quarter of the 12th century as part of the fortification of the left bank of the river Vltava where it had defended the entry from the original wooden bridge. Later, it had been integrated into the complex of Judith Bridge, and after its destruction, also into new Charles Bridge. The arch of the gate between the lower Lesser Town Tower Bridge and the Romanesque predecessor of the today's higher Lesser Town Tower Bridge had been built in 1411; a prison for the worst felons had been in the tower. The Tower had undergone Renaissance adaptation in 1591, which gave it its nowadays form (some remains of the plaster, window surrounds, gables, roof have been pre-served); since that adaptation until 1784 it had served as a customs office, then it had belonged to various landlords, and since 1893 it has been the town property. A unique set of engravings from the mid-13th century has been preserved in the tower basement (they depict human figu-res, animals, arms, eight-pointed star and coats-of-arms). The small Renaissance house, the so-called customhouse, which had been annexed in 1591 to the Tower, houses a relief with a thro-ning and kneeling figure that is a rare relic of Judith Bridge decoration; originally, the house had been a seat of the Office of the Prague Bridge and Salt Office. The Tower interior, which is not open to the public at present, consists of a ground floor and three higher floors, each having a single room, that are connected with wooden steps. In the end of the staircase there is an entry to the gate arch, which is connected with the higher Lesser Town Bridge Tower. The Romanesque core of the lower Lesser Town Bridge Tower is the oldest part of the complex of Charles Bridge.
The higher Lesser Town Tower Bridge had been built after the year 1464 at the expense of King George of Poděbrady (1420-1471) in place of an older Romanesque tower. Similarly to its older predecessor, it features a simple prismatic form, but is built of large sandstone blocks. Without its finials and tips it is 45 metres high; the gallery is in the height of 26 metres. Late Gothic architecture of the Tower follows up the Old Town Bridge Tower built by Parler. Origi-nally, rich sculptural decoration had probably been intended, but the prepared recesses remained empty. Four turrets with castellated loop-holes protrude from the moulding corners; recesses are stoned up between the turrets to protect the gallery round the steep saddle roof. The construction had undergone complete repair in 1874-79 under the leadership of the architect Josef Mocker (1835-1899). The Tower had been used as a warning post and store-house; today, it is open for the public as a lookout point and exhibition area with permanent display of the history of Char-les Bridge.
The gate arch in the form of two Gothic parallel pointed arcades with serrated castellation had appeared after the year 1411 in place of an older Romanesque building; it is decorated with the coats-of-arms of the lands of Wenceslas IV (in the direction of the bridge: Lion of Luxem-bourg, Lion of Bohemia and Eagle of Moravia; two coats-of-arms of the Old Town of Prague below; in the direction of the Lesser Town: Eagle of the Vratislavs, Lion of Bohemia, sign of Lower Lusatia and coat-of-arms of the Lesser Town below). The gate arch is decorated with stone leafy circles with a viola growing in the middle; a water-shoot protrudes above in the cor-nice below the castellation. A double-wing oak door used to be installed in the gate.

The official launch of the new Stephen Hawking Centre at Perimeter Institute will take place over three exciting days, from September 16 to 18, 2011. To celebrate the expansion, the Institute's award-winning outreach team is planning a number of activities including:
- 'Science in the Pub' and 'Science in the Club' chats in Uptown Waterloo, where researchers will be on hand to discuss scientific questions in relaxed settings
- An open house at the original 35 King Street North facility – the historic clock tower heritage building and first home of Perimeter Institute for Theoretical Physics
- Tours and PI Public Lectures at the expanded 31 Caroline Street North research centre
The Grand Opening will take place in concert with Doors Open Waterloo Region activities occurring that same weekend and Celebrate Ontario, which is providing funding toward the three days of special events. "We are looking forward to sharing the new facility – and the research, training and outreach activities inside – with everyone from across the province and beyond," said Michael Duschenes, Chief Operating Officer of Perimeter Institute. "And we are very thankful for the support of Celebrate Ontario, which will allow us to showcase the Grand Opening events and Waterloo Region in a very high impact manner."
A full event schedule with complete details will be published in the months ahead. Free, online ticketing services will also be provided to ensure timed entry to the facilities.
About the New Centre In July 2009, to accommodate the growth of PI's scientific community, Perimeter Institute embarked on a 55,000 square foot addition to the existing research facility. The award-winning firm of Teeple Architects has designed the expansion such that it will double PI's current research space, yet still retain the productive interdisciplinary environment of the original facility. When complete, the building will accommodate up to 250 physicists and research trainees, making PI the largest theoretical physics research centre of its kind in the world.

THE SQL Server Blog Spot on the Web
The Microsoft Business Intelligence Conference 2007 has been a good conference. Not very good, probably as a result of its success.
Microsoft wanted to send the message "we are serious in the BI market" with this event. From my perception, half of attendees were "technical" and the other half were "manager" (or something else not so technical). If the goal was to reach only this second half, it has been partially achieved. Or fully - in fact the conference had more attendees than expected.
I think with a few corrections, the next conference could be better:
There is also something that was very good and I wouldn't change:

Two bits of awesome news! First there will be no contrived Wanted sequel, thanks to Angelina Jolie. Instead she's going to star in Gravity from Children Of Men director Alfonso Cuarón. Which is definitely the second bit of good news.
New York Magazine is reporting that Angelina Jolie pulled out of Universal's Wanted 2 picture, which sounded like it was going to resurrect her character in a convoluted, nonsensical way, judging from director Timur Bekmambetov's comments last summer. Plus there really was no reason for a second Wanted film.
Instead the actress plans to act in Cuarón's space drama Gravity. Which sounds like Moon mixed with Castaway:
Jolie would be alone on-screen for much of the movie, playing the sole surviving human member of a space mission, desperately trying to return home to Earth and her daughter.
Good news all around. Plus we're very happy that Cuarón's cerebral work is moving forward, now we have something thought-provoking to look forward to after Inception.

I installed CWM sometime back and switched back to a stock ROM. When I installed CWM I lost my userdata, by which I mean the phone started as it would for the first time after opening the box. I used
fastboot oem unlock to unlock the bootloader so I could install CWM.
I want to root my phone, but I don't want to lose all my userdata this time. Is CWM is a must for rooting?
