Take the college student survey to share your opinions about your school and be entered into a $1,000 scholarship!
Reload the page and try again.
A A+F Overall Experience: I personally could not be more satisfied. The people here are great, the academics are challenging, and I am lucky that I like the cold. I chose this school specifically because it was a small liberal arts college with a charming atmosphere, great academics, and it is absolutely worth my seven hour drive from home.
B A+F Campus Housing: Living at Colby is pretty nice. The dorms are usually very cozy and each dorm has its perks. There are small dorms, but, as the owner of one, I find them perfectly big enough to get everything I need inside. Then there are much larger dorms that are very nice, and I heard that some quads and the senior apartments are of excellent size and quality. Dorms are scattered throughout campus, so depending on where you have class, it may or may not be tiresome. Since there are three dining halls, however, it is relatively easy to get to one. The atmosphere in the dorms can vary. Chem-free dorms are usually a lot more quiet, whereas other dorms are louder. The "Frat row" dorms tend not to be substance free, but are still quieter, and smaller dorms.
C A+F Local Atmosphere: Waterville is sweet, peaceful community... that can get a bit boring sometimes (that coming from someone from New York). There isn't much to do in Waterville itself apart from eating. The main attractions are outdoors activities. Portland is an hour away from campus, and has the L.L. Bean store where most people go shopping for winter clothes. Overall, the atmosphere around Colby is not the most interesting, and it is certainly good to get off campus to some other place during breaks.
B A+F Computers: There are plenty of computers at Colby. Colby is also 50% Mac and 50% PC, though I think at least in the biology labs, the desktops are all Mac. Computer software is always updated (currently at Windows7 and the most recent version of OSX software). The network speed is actually impressive, but the network reliability can be a bit shaky sometimes, especially in certain dorms. For some reason, the internet sometimes just shuts off and on. This can be quite annoying, and it happens for certain periods of time, but most of the time, the connection is rather strong. You do not necessarily need to bring a laptop, but it is just usefull to be able to use computer in you room. You can easily go to the library where you can print out black and white for free and color for a small charge.
Greek Life: There is no Greek life at Colby.
B A+F Off-Campus Dining: Surprisingly, though there may not be much to do in Waterville, there are quite a number of good restaurants. Students can easily get discounts or college-sized meals. The quality of the off-campus food can vary from fast-food to very good Maine cuisine (=lobster).
D A+F Off-Campus Housing: Let's face it, there is nothing around Waterville, or even in Augusta. It's just so much better to live on campus, near classes. Life at Colby is at Colby and not anywhere else.
B A+F Athletics: Colby is a Divison III school (with the exception of alpine skiing which is Division I). That being said, there is no UMichigan-sized football field, and certainly not as many fans. Colby does not have the best sports teams in the NESCAC division, but athletics are still taken seriously at Colby. Yet, though varsity sports are not top notch, the overall population at Colby is exceptionally athletic. The facilites are very accessible and of good quality to non-varsity athlete students. The Athletic Center is a very popular destination on campus before and after classes and on the week end. Academics comes before athletics: a rule that is probably found in many other colleges. The two main rivalries are between Bates College and Bowdoin. The school spirit is certainly not the best, but the Mule Mob does a good job in rousing the students to cheer.
A A+F Guys & Girls: Guys and girls at Colby are awesome. This doesn't mean of course that 100% of the Colby population is going to greet everyone with enthusiastic open arms and what not, but overall, the atmosphere at Colby is incredibly comfortable. COOT (Colby Outdoor Orientation Trips) really gave people the opportunity to meet and create close friendships from day one of freshman year. The type of people you find at Colby are very diverse, yet they get together incredibly well. Some are more athletic, others more creative, musical. It is very easy to talk to someone to get to know them. I have heard of past diversity issues at Colby and people feeling excluded because of the party scene. As an international student who is latino, I have to say that I have found no problem in adapting to life at Colby. For those who do not like to party, they can easily choose the substance-free dorms to live in, which are always quiet and cozy. People at Colby do not peer pressure. You can very realistically go to a party and not drink without being judged. Another thing about the people at the college is that they are dynamic and interesting. Planning ski trips and other fun activities on and off campus is very easy because a large number of people want to take part. In general, people at Colby, in my opinion, are the best.
B A+F Academics: Academics at Colby are certainly some of the best in the country. The most popular departments are biology and economics. The professors at Colby are very interesting, and the great majority of them are top notch. As a planned bio major, there are more than enough resources I can use, including great study abroad options specifically for my major. From personal experience, I have found that academic deans at Colby are excellent, and they really help you navigate the school, especially as a first year.
B A+F Academics: There are plenty of majors and minors to choose from at Colby. The language department does have a limited amount of languages to study (French, Spanish, Italian, Chinese, Russian, Japanese, German are the ones I can list from the top of my head) and some of these departments are quite small. The music department is also one of the smaller ones. The professors are great in general. They are interesting, affable, nice, and some are very amusing. They are always there to help, and every professor has office hours during which a student can come to ask for help, or simply chat. It is also very easy to ask a professor to lunch, just as it is easy to ask the president to lunch. The academics are rigorous. There is a lot of work, and to me, four classes is plenty. Certain professors can grade pretty harshly, but then again, it is very easy to ask for help in understand what that professor really wants. Overall, the academics at Colby are very rigorous and of great quality.
B A+F Campus Dining: There is nothing you can say about the dining halls at Colby. Yes, it is not home-cooked food or a gastronomic restaurant, but you can really eat good things. There are a bit less good things as well, but compared to other colleges I have visited, I can guarantee that Colby has far better food than most colleges. There are three dining halls on campus: Bobs, Dana, and Foss. Bobs has more international food (European, Asian), Dana has more fast food (pizza, pasta, fries, burgers, etc), and Foss has most of the vegan and vegetarian as well as the fish options. Bobs and Foss tend to have higher quality food than Dana. The three dining halls are well dispersed around campus, which can be good or bad depending on where you live, and if you are a picky eater. Overall, the food at Colby is of great quality. It is good most of the time, and healthy.
B A+F Facilities: Colby College has great facilites. They just built the best museum in Maine, and one of the best in the country, where students can go and view expositions free of charge. The college is also currently building a new building that will house the mathematics and computer science department. The library is currently being renovated. Dorms at Colby are very reasonable. Some are smaller then others, but some are truly a lot bigger than you would find on a "regular" campus". The facilities are always clean. The material is there. Colby has a beautiful campus and it does a great effort at keeping it that way.
B A+F Facilities: Many things set Colby apart from other schools. First, the diversity at Colby is omnipresent and is really felt. People from Europe, Asia, Africa, all over the world... you can find them at Colby. Second, the people are exceptionally nice. In fact, the people at Colby were the main reason I chose to apply early decision there. It feels like a tight community, yet the college is big enough so that things are not "too tight". Though Colby is in Waterville, and technically "in the middle of nowhere", there are plenty of things to do, especially if you are an outdoorsy person: skiing, hiking, canoeing, ice-climbing, rafting, nordic-skiing, and much, much more. On the week ends, there tends to be a lot of drinking (but hey! where isn't there any drinking?) but you can easily attend parties without being peer pressured to drink, and there are plenty of people on campus who do not party and find other things to do. SPB at Colby makes sure to bring events to you, and many great artists have come to perform at the college. You can have the choice to live in a substance-free dorm if you do not enjoy loud music and parties. Professors at Colby are really interesting. They are very engaged in their subject and they will most definitively help you if you are struggling in a particular area. Academics at Colby in general are great. I hear Colby gives excellent scholarships and grants to students. I will emphasize, however, that what sets Colby apart from the rest is the people.
A A+F Health & Safety: First of all, Colby College is set in a small town in Maine. Even there, it is isolated on Mayflower Hill. Life at Colby is campus life. There isn't much to do out of campus apart from a few very good restaurants. The Garrison-Hall is conveniently located near the center of campus, and I've heard that they take good care of people with injuries and sicknesses, though I have never been there myself. The blue lights security system is present as on many campuses, but generally, there just is absolutely nothing to fear on campus, which is set near a very nice neighborhood.
A A+F Majors: Although Pre-med is not a major at Colby, a lot of students are planning on going to medical school. There are a lot of biology majors.
C A+F Majors: I have not had an internship, but there is a jan-plan called pre-med academy where students can job shadow a doctor for the month.
B A+F Campus Dining: The food here is usually really good, but if you just go to Dana for every meal, it can get boring. Dana is the biggest dining hall, it is basically a classic foods dining hall with pizza, spaghetti, a homecooked meal (turkey, chicken, steak, or meatloaf usually) and something on the grill. Roberts is more of a bistro style dining hall with some great food. Foss tends to be more organic with many international options. Don't let the weird names on the menu scare you off though because Foss is the best dining hall as far as quality goes. Every week you get one free meal at the spa, but often the best food is not on the meal deal.
B A+F Facilities: There are three libraries on campus. Miller is the largest with 3 floors to study on, with the top floor being absolutely silent and the first floor being a talking space. Pulver Pavillion is where most students go to just hang out. The building is home to the spa, which is a small place to get food, the pub, the Pugh Center, Page commons, Cotter Union, the post office, and the bookstore. The athletic center is on the edge of campus, so it can be hard to get motivated to walk down during the winter. Overall, the campus is beautiful with a very classic college feel.
B A+F Facilities: There are clubs for basically anything at this school and if there isn't a club for it yet, you can make one. There is a campus-wide party at the beginning and end of every semester called Loudness. Every semester there is a big name concert. This semester was GROUPLOVE and last semester was Macklemore and Ryan Lewis.
A A+F Campus Strictness: In general, the campus PD is VERY lenient and chances are you will never have to talk to them.
A A+F Academics: Colby is known as one of the best liberal arts colleges in the nation. I am taking two labs right now, which is generally regarded as a heavy load, and the workload is in no way overwhelming. The science department has a lot of very nice (and expensive) equipment that students start using as early as general chemistry.
A A+F Academics: The professors here are generally very good with the exception of a few, but you can just ask around on campus and people will tell you who you want for each class. Registering for classes is easy and is done online.
B A+F Parking: Parking permits are free to Colby students. Generally cars aren't necessary, but it can be helpful to have one on certain occasions.
A A+F Scholarships: Students from Maine usually receive large grants. Other than that, I don't know much about financial aid.

Colby students love Colby. While they can always find something to complain about—the weather, the town, the lack of diversity, and the homework—they tend to be happy that they chose to come here. Most cite the academics and the friendly atmosphere. Classes and professors are undeniably wonderful, and the student body tends to be happy, friendly, and optimistic.
There are definitely things about Colby that should change. The school is not for everyone. The diversity issue is pretty serious and causes the most friction on campus. Also, many find campus to be claustrophobic at times. Being up on Mayflower Hill all the time can drive you crazy if you can't find a way to get into town every now and then. And even when you can get into town, unless you're eating or seeing movies, there's not much to do. The near-constant drinking can overwhelm some people. And the school really needs to work on a system of underground tunnels so students don't have to walk around outside in the winter. The campus, though, is bolstered by the student body's seemingly endless stores of energy and optimism, and most people have a positive Colby experience.

SOURCE Golf Academy of America
Wins Event Overseen By President George W. Bush By Nine Strokes
BIRMINGHAM, Ala., Sept. 30, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- On Saturday, Sept. 28, Ret. Cpl. Chad Pfeifer, an alumnus of Golf Academy of America, won the Warrior Open, organized by the George W. Bush Institute and overseen by President George W. Bush, by nine strokes, topping a field of 23 retired servicemen wounded in combat. The victory was Pfeifer's third straight, coming in the event's third year. Rounds of 71-75 at Las Colinas Country Club in Irving, Texas gave him a four-over par total of 146 for the event.
Last year, with former President George W. Bush as a witness, Pfeifer made a hole-in-one on Las Colinas' fourth hole en route to a 15-stroke victory.
The 2013 Warrior Open field also included current Golf Academy of America student SSG Andrew Montgomery, who finished in 19th place. Pfeifer graduated from Golf Academy of America's Phoenix Campus while Montgomery is currently enrolled at the campus in Myrtle Beach, S.C.
A PGA professional, Pfeifer works at Golf Club of Estrella in Goodyear, Ariz., and plays in mini-tour events.
While serving in Iraq in 2007, Pfeifer lost his left leg when a bomb exploded under the vehicle he was driving home from a patrol.
He took up golf as part of his recovery and enrolled in Golf Academy of America. He shot a career-best 65 while winning the 2011 National Amputee Championship.
"Chad's hard work and accomplishments have been an inspiration to our students and faculty," said Golf Academy of America president Jim Hart. "We are honored to have two of our students selected for this elite event recognizing veterans who have sacrificed so much for our country."
About Golf Academy of America Golf Academy of America (formerly the San Diego Golf Academy) is the largest and longest-running two-year golf college in the world.

Comments On Dec 10, 2013:Not too expensive. Looks cool. My OEM rotor was a tad warped so this new one helped out

Comments On Nov 08, 2013:Provide great braking power at alot less of a price than other brands.

Comments On Oct 26, 2013:Great price and fit is good. No issues with this item
Was this review helpful?
Comments On Oct 03, 2013:I can't feel any difference between this brake rotor and the OEM one and this one is about half the price. It's a no-brainer if you need a disk for an extra wheel or something. I used to swap my stock rotor between my three rear wheels. Now that I have a rotor for each wheel, the time required to swap my wheels has been cut in half.

Comments On Oct 02, 2013:They seem to be doing as well as much more expensive rotors. Looks are ok, but for the price I would def. buy again.
Was this review helpful?
Comments On Sep 18, 2013:I bought this rotor to replace the bent rear rotor thats been on the bike since I bought it 3 years ago. Installed with no problems. I only have one day of riding on it but thus far no problems and it looks really cool too.

Comments On Sep 13, 2013:Definitely a great buy, amazing product especially for the $$
Was this review helpful?
Comments On May 12, 2013:Exact fit, easy install and good quality. I got this pretty hot on one of the long winding roads up near Forest Ranch, CA. A whole lot of full throttle, then back down to some nice sliding in the corners. I was relentless on these brake rotors and they show no sign of warping or discoloration. If and when I bash this one up I will buy this one again.
Additional Comments On Sep 03, 2013:Well I bashed that one up and true to my work returned to buy another. Second one I ordered was as great as the first, shame I lost my skid plate as I'm sure the first would have held up really well with it in place. Armadillo skid plate in place now and another rotor, should be good to go for a couple seasons. RMATV/MC sent everything to my door in 2 days and FREE!! Can't beat the price and durability of Tusk. One of their stickers made it's way to my quad, I don't just stick stickers cause they send them, the product has to earn a spot and Tusk did! Tires, Tie Rod Ends, Rotors, Levers etc...everything I've purchased from Tusk has been outstanding!!

I also found that if I use a Distress Ink stamp pad right onto my non stick craft sheet, I can then use this pen to pick up the color and use it to paint. This pen will get a lot of use from me...and the nib cleans easily by just wiping it on the non stick craft sheet a few times.

that's going to be so great...she had some really good songs on Animal that just needed some new beats..I was wandering if she was just goin to let them go or was she goin to remix them or what...I'm really excited here..I think it's very smart what her label is doing...she's definitely not in her teens and she is definitely moving in a new direction..so she needed new songs..new album...new sounds...
I just heard Kesha is preparing to re-release "Animal" this holiday season. What a GREAT stocking stuffer?
"Cannibal" will contain eight new tracks plus a brand new remix of her already released song "Animal". It will be available to be bought separately as an EP and also as a bundle called "Animal + Cannibal". Here are the links for pre-order on Amazon.com:
sweet!!! looks like my hopes were correct...either a 2 pack, or by itself
and since ive never seen we r who we r online anywhere, chances are they are 8 new songs never heard before
cant wait!!!
yeah i saw that online...its supposed to be called "cannibal" and contain more songs
chances are theyre the same songs that have been floating around on the internet for some time...
i kinda hope she does the same thing lady gaga did with the fame monster, and release a version with just the new songs

Over the last few years, these tools have met with growing success when applied to a wide range of problems, including protein design, protein-structure prediction, enzyme design, and drug design. Our goal is to utilize available state-of-the-art structural bioinformatics tools, as well as to develop novel methodologies, as part of a collaborative effort—within the Vaccine Research Center, with other intramural portions of the National Institutes of Health, and extramurally—to assist in vaccine design against HIV-1 and other viruses.
The efforts of the SBIS can be divided into three areas:
Recent progress in the field has provided encouragement that development of a vaccine for HIV-1 is possible. By combining the power and efficiency of computation with the plethora of information encrypted in protein structures, SBIS can play a central role in the vaccine design process.

Somatic Populations of PGT135-137 HIV-1-Neutralizing Antibodies Identified by 454 Pyrosequencing and Bioinformatics. Front Microbiol. Epub 2012 Sep 11. SBIS contribution: Jiang Zhu carried out a benchmark study of the 454-pyrosequencing-induced sequence variation using plasmids of 10 HIV-1 broadly neutralizing antibodies as input. He then investigated the somatic variation of three neutralizing antibodies (PGT135–137) that target an epitope containing an N-linked glycan at residue 332 on HIV-1 gp120 by combing 454 pyrosequencing and bioinformatics analysis. The results indicate that the sequence diversity observed with the PGT135-137 antibodyome was notably higher than observed with the 10-plasmid controls, suggesting that this diversity results primarily from somatic maturation.

EMISSIONS ESTIMATES: Alberta's oil-sands companies are required to reduce the intensity of their greenhouse-gas emissions under the province's emissions trading scheme.

The Best Science Writing Online 2012
Showcasing more than fifty of the most provocative, original, and significant online essays from 2011, The Best Science Writing Online 2012 will change the way...

Alberta's $57 million carbon-cutting program is failing, according to the latest report from the Canadian province's auditor-general, Merwan Saher. Like many such programs around the world, it includes an emissions trading scheme, which allows polluters to meet their emissions reductions targets by buying carbon offsets from a selection of approved projects. The offsets are supposed to be real, measurable and provable. But the report claims that the province, despite earlier warnings, has not improved its regulatory structure—and calls the emissions estimates and the offsets themselves into question.
Nature looks at the hurdles faced by Alberta and other jurisdictions over their emissions trading schemes.
What carbon trading schemes exist around the world?
In addition to Alberta's scheme and the expiring Kyoto Protocol's Clean Development Mechanism (CDM) run by the United Nations, emissions trading schemes are operated in the European Union (EU), New Zealand, the city of Tokyo and by a group of northeastern US states. Several other countries and regions, including California, India and Australia, are also planning to start their own schemes.
The EU emissions trading scheme includes 11,000 power stations and industrial plants that produce half of Europe's total carbon emissions—but it is struggling in the economic downturn (see "European carbon market plummets").
Alberta's scheme, called the Specified Gas Emitters Regulation, was passed by the Alberta legislature in 2007. It sets limits on the intensity levels of greenhouse gases emitted by Alberta facilities—oil sands operations and coal-fired power plants, for example—if they emit more than the equivalent of 100,000 tonnes of carbon dioxide a year. These facilities must reduce their greenhouse-gas emissions intensity—emissions per unit of production—by 12 percent each year, but they are not required to reduce their overall emissions.
How are emissions measured?
Not all greenhouse-gas emissions are measured in the same way—or with the same level of accuracy. In industrial settings, continuous emissions-monitoring systems can directly monitor flue gases for CO2 and other greenhouse gases. Less-accurate emissions estimates are calculated based on surrogate measurements, such as the number of kilowatt hours of energy produced or miles driven. Alberta, unlike other jurisdictions, has opted to link reduction targets to a facility's production output.
Who checks the emission estimates?
In Alberta, the Department of Environment and Water requires facilities to have their emission estimates (and offset projects) independently verified. The department also uses another set of verifiers to confirm reports for a sample of those facilities that are signed up to the scheme. The UN's CDM keeps track of all eligible projects in an online registry.
What can you get credits for?
Alberta facilities can receive carbon credits by investing in a variety of Alberta-based projects. These range from paying farmers to adopt low-till or no-till agricultural practices—thereby turning fields into carbon sinks—to the collection and combustion of landfill gas.
Examples from the CDM include siphoning off the methane produced by pig farms and feeding it to a power plant that would otherwise have used fossil fuels; investing in the development and operation of an energy-efficient rapid transit system in Delhi, India; and dissemination of efficient wood stoves in Nigeria to reduce wood demand and deforestation.

Aug. 10, 2010 — We are headed into the dog days of summer, but my mind is thinking it's the fall season all because Lassen High School starts on Monday, Aug. 16. My thinking hasn't changed on such an early start day — it's just simply crazy. Of course, the old mantra is that the early date has to do with fall sports and the school denies it. I won't argue that point except to say the first Grizzly home football is Friday, Aug. 28.
Aug. 3, 2010 — Everybody remembers the first time — it's human nature.
Way back in 1999 I enjoyed my first summer working at the newspaper and learning my way around Lassen County when I got my first glimpse of what seems to be an unfortunate and all too frequent occurrence in our part of the country — a raging wildfire. Growing up in the city, I had no real experience with our kind of fire.
July 27, 2010 — The Lassen County Fair is much more than just carnival rides and cotton candy — it's a chance for Lassen County residents to celebrate our community and our way of life in Northeastern California.
Once again, it's time to congratulate all the good people who organize the fair every year and say thank you for a job well done.
July 20, 2010 — Flags were flying half-staff last week across Lassen County and the state of California in remembrance of State Senator Dave Cox who died Tuesday, July 13.
Typically when one hears the word senator, thoughts head in the direction of politician and that equates with special interest groups and a self-serving agenda.

Eileen Fisher Washed Linen Cases
Favorite Sheets
Every since we bought our first set of these a few years ago, they're the only sheets we've used year-round. Unfortunately, they wear out. We've already replaced the fitted sheet, and recently decided to replace the top sheet. Fortunately, the colors always coordinate from season to season.
December 10, 2013
Great Fabric, Not-Great Fit
The feel of this linen is luxurious. Sadly, after one washing (cold cycle, low tumble dry) the fitted queen sheet doesn't fit my mattress very well. Can barely pull it down the sides.
December 1, 2013
Great color but wrinkles
I was wary to order a linen comforter cover but the color won me over. The color is beautiful and rich however linen is a fabric that wrinkles and this is no exception. Love the color, love the texture but the pervasive wrinkles frustrate me. I wish the color was available in another fabric.
November 25, 2013
Lovely linen
Not any more expensive than any other linen sheets and cases of this quality which seems pretty substantial. Hopefully they'll last a long time to justify the price. I do love sleeping on linen in the summer.
November 25, 2013
A Splurge
Beautifully made and a lovely lush bittersweet orange color. Eileen Fisher clothing and home goods are always so expensive but sometimes I just have to splurge. I'm usually not disappointed and I wasn't with these linens.
November 25, 2013
beautiful linen sheets
Because they were on sale, I bought the pale pink linen sheets that I had my eye on for, well, probably two years. They are just the ultimate in delight to sleep on, such a nice heft to the fabric, a lovely color, and they feel so comfortable, I just like looking at them. It is fun to make a bed when it is dressed up so elegantly.

Welcome to Yazoo City
In fact, I never even thought about what life would be like for myself in Yazoo City.
Now, though, as the sports editor of this historic newspaper, I am excited to begin a new chapter of my life at the Gateway to the Delta.
Although I've only been on the job for two weeks now, Yazoo has quickly become my favorite town in the delta and considering I was born and raised near Dallas, Texas, that's saying something.
Since this is my first column for The Yazoo Herald, I'd like to use it as medium for you (the reader) to get to know me a little bit.
I recently graduated from Delta State with a degree in journalism and a minor in history this past summer. As I worked towards my degree, I spent those four years working at local newspapers in Cleveland, both as a simple writer and as a sports editor (twice). I also spent two years working for the school newspaper, The Delta Statement, including one year as the managing editor. I've won four awards during my time in Cleveland, one of which was for the best sports section.
As I mentioned before, I grew up in Arlington, Texas (roughly 25 miles west of Dallas) where I played football, baseball and even soccer for a couple of seasons. I first came to Mississippi July 2007 to attend Delta State, but my first visit to Yazoo City wouldn't come for another year or so.
Now that I'm here, though, it's time to get to work.
I hope to continue the successful sports department here and make it even better through game stories, features, columns and pictures. However, my ultimate goal is to make this sports section the best in the Magnolia State, even if that means lots of work and long nights in my near future.
But I'm not going to be able to do it all by myself. So, if you have a story idea, suggestion, picture or even a story already written, I'd love to hear from you.
I shouldn't be too hard to find. Just look around the local sporting events. I'll be the guy with the camera around my neck, paper and pens in my pocket and running around to make sure I get the best information and pictures for you.

Friendly, unapologetically Texan and full of Western heritage, living in Fort Worth apartments for rent will put you right in the middle of one of the fastest-growing cities in the country. From the Sundance Square - Fort Worth's charming downtown area, to the Wild West heritage in Stockyards National Historic District, this popular city has everything you'd expect from a sprawling Texas metropolis. However, the burgeoning arts and culture scene, surprising affordability and family-friendly attractions here may surprise you.
Because Fort Worth is part of one the largest metropolitan areas in the country - there is something for everyone in Fort Worth apartments for rent, whether you're a student or part of a family of four. According to City-Data, people are flocking to apartments in Fort Worth, as it has seen a more than 39 percent jolt in population from 2000 to 2010. Clearly with all of its growth, Fort Worth is place that many people are excited to be part of. Some of the most popular neighborhoods in the area include the Stockyards District, the Camp Bowie District and Sundance Square - known as a very walkable hub within the city. For students, the University/TCU area is a popular place for residents seeking Fort Worth apartments in a more collegiate atmosphere. Need another reason to move here? The average winter temperature in Fort Worth is around 51 degrees, giving you temperate weather year-round. Fort Worth is definitely an urban sprawl - the metro area encompasses nearly 300 miles - so you will probably need a vehicle to get around the city. However, its large size can also give you plenty of options for rentals since the Fort Worth is so large and diverse.
Even though Fort Worth apartments for rent are located in one of the most sought-after metropolitan areas in the country, you wouldn't know it by its affordability. According to City-Data, the overall cost of living index in 2012 was more than 5 points below the national average. According to AreaVibes, the average cost of a gallon of gas is around $3.61 per gallon, which is a similar rate to the rest of the Lone Star State. The Fort Worth Housing Authority offers plenty of Fort Worth apartments that are perfect for low-income tenants.
One of the biggest and most esteemed colleges in the Fort Worth area is Texas Christian University. Many students flock into Fort Worth apartments every year in the University neighborhood to attend this institution; however, there are several other colleges in the area, including Texas Wesleyan University and a branch of the University of North Texas. Although oil production was once the number one industry in the area, manufacturing and tourism are the leading fields today. In fact, Fort Worth typically welcomes 5.5 million visitors every year, making it the number one tourist industry in Texas. Some of the major corporate employers in the Fort Worth area include American Airlines, RadioShack, Pier One and Lockheed Martin.

There is also the long experience of operating in the desert that leaders such as Belmoktar have, and the complex relationships between different and often fractious groups.
Another factor is that the United States has not developed the sort of intelligence infrastructure in this region that it painstakingly built up in the tribal areas of Pakistan and Yemen. In December, U.S. officials began discussing with Algeria the possibility that it might acquire its own satellite surveillance system to monitor terrorist movements in southern Algeria.
Analysts warn that however successful the first phase of the French operation in Mali, it is likely to encounter challenges similar to those faced by U.S. and British forces in Iraq as the campaign evolves.
"For months jihadists in Mali have been preparing for a military intervention by creating a network of hundreds of weapons caches and safe houses in the desert where they've stored weapons, ammunition, and food and set up communication channels," Benotman told CNN.
He said Belmoktar in particular may be hard to track down. "He's a survivor -- he knows when to go into hiding when necessary," he told CNN.
That's why French intelligence officials have dubbed him "The Uncatchable."

Beef Goulash! Thick Hungarian Soup, Thin Austrian Stew, or None of the Above?
*Note: real goulash is more like a soup, so if you want yours thinner, just add 2 or 3 extra cups of broth.

I'm sure this is delicious and I prefer to think of it as "goulash" which has nothing much to do with Hungarian gulyás which is pretty different. You could add as little or as much water to this goulash and still be nowhere near gulyás leves (pronounced goo' yash le'vesh).
However, there is not a lot of consistency in the Hungarian recipes either. Well, there is some, but there is also a lot of variation. When I first married my Hungarian husband more than 40 years ago I went to many good cooks in the family and beyond. No one gave me the exact same recipe. - January 15, 2013 at 2:28 PM
- Kristi in the Western Reserve said...
You probably know this already, but a gulyas is a cow herder or a cowboy on the plains of Hungary and this is cowboy soup which they cooked (and still do) over an open fire in a kettle suspended from a tripod.

Sorry for one last comment! Your version is pretty authentic for the Austrian versions that I've eaten in restaurants in Austria and Germany since the early 70s.

Chef John, thank you for this fantastic looking (and surely fantastic tasting) version of goulash.
I grew up in Austria, and pretty much every family has their own favorite version (as with so many other basic dishes). My mother used the same weight of onions and meat (with very little water/broth), and the juices from the onions would become the liquid in the stew.
Now, I prefer pork over beef. I start with a pork loin, and use the lean center part for Wienerschnitzel, and the other a bit fattier parts for goulash.
Thank you for all your inspiring video recipe ideas. - Wolfgang - January 15, 2013 at 2:55 PM

My favorite is the Dominican version. There's a place in Providence, RI called Pito's II. They make this beef stew with carrot and tomato that's served over rice. Delicious!

I am German and the goulash we make in our family is completely different. Like Christmas traditions, it differs form region to region. We eat kassler (best ham like pork ever), mettenden (fantastic sausage) and a kale/potato mash (that is to die for). Others I know eat beef, fish, rabbit, lamb, other pork dishes, Ive heard it all now. Goulash is just another thing that everyone does differently. We actually make ours in a pressure cooker with a much bigger focus on the beef flavour. It is delicious, but very far removed from what I would consider a more traditional goulash (going into this direction, but soupy). -Matt

Chef John, it's a very nice recipe. Not the Hungarian style for sure, but very nice anyway.
So 'whatever' is 'mindegy'or'tök mindegy' in Hungarian. The second one is a bit of a slang with 'tök', which actually means squash, the vegetable. :) Don't ask, no reason.
One thing that strikes me is adding sugar to pörkölt or gulyás. It just seems a little bit odd to me (even with the tomato). But mindegy. :)
Greetings from Hungary! - January 16, 2013 at 3:02 AM
- Ligeia said...
Well, I'm as Hungarian as they come, but I sure love my pörkölt served on noodles, and your version looks absolutely stunning, Chef John! Also, thumbs up for writing the Hungarian words correctly, and using sour cream. Thank you for another great recipe! :)
- January 16, 2013 at 7:44 AM
- Rita said...
yet, another tasty recipe.
just like the other posters say, every family have their own traditional goulash recipe... and we have tried many different variations from different countries and families since we've been living here in germany - and they're all good! that goulasch would be good with some kind of knödel. now, i'm hungry again :) - January 16, 2013 at 2:03 PM

Chef John!
I liked the video, I think this dish is awesome, but it is not the authentic hungarian goulash, but I love this recipe.
The world gulash is used to refer a stew in a lot of langeuges, but in Hungary the word gulyás means soup.
I think you would love the authentic version too. It is made in a cauldron. First we melt some rich bacon(in hungarian szalonna). In that bacon fat we cook the onion, after that we add the mild paprika, black pepper and some water. After that we put the meat into the cauldron. We usualy use two meat type at the same time. We put some beef shank and pork.After that we add the potato. Sometimes we add some beans and carrots too. It is not so healthy, but delicious.
I'm happy because when I read the commments I saw how many types of gulash made around Europe. Taesting of the other nations cuisine is a good way of getting know the other cultures

The great thing about food are there are sooooo many different and delicious varieties to try. I've tasted many goulashes from various places around the world and will be making this one for dinner tonight. - January 17, 2013 at 3:03 AM
- Marco Barisione said...
Just a suggestion, you should not toast the paprika. Paprika tends to burn and get bitter (due to the high sugar content) if left in a pan without liquids. The traditional way of adding paprika is to first remove the pot from the heat, add the paprika and then add some liquid. When using paprika it's important that there is some fat as the aromatic components are fat soluble, so you are not going to extract them with just water or using dry paprika.
- January 17, 2013 at 3:56 AM
- esztiklock said...
The real gulyás is cooked way different than what you made but this was also delicious looking.
You have to visit our country ones! Hungarian cuisine is the best in the world.
You know what? Right now I officially invite you to visit us here in Hungary , Székesfehérvár! :)

- January 17, 2013 at 4:45 PM
- Roberto said...
I made this last night with a couple of minor changes. I toasted the other spices, but not the paprika because it burns so easily. I simply added it seconds before deglazing the pan. I also omitted the sugar. It seemed WAY too spicy just after it was assembled, but the flavors mellowed a lot after 2 hours, so my worries were unfounded. The result was very close to Goulash I've eaten in restaurants in Austria. This recipe is a keeper.

I made this last night. I have a question, I bought a cut of beef chuck top blade roast boneless and the meat came out a little hard. The stew is very good but the meat did not come out tender enough. I simmered it for 2 hours. At the store there were a lot of different cuts of beef chuck, I did not know which one to choose. Any recommendations?
- January 19, 2013 at 6:06 PM
- Chef John said...
You can never go strictly by time with a stew. There are many variables. It's about 2 hours OR until tender. So just keep cooking! That's it. :)

Just wondering.......why use CHICKEN broth in a BEEF dish? Why not use BEEF broth?
- January 20, 2013 at 1:56 PM
- Chef John said...
You could but most chefs like the more nuetral flavor of the chicken. They don't want beef flavor from broth to complete with meat's flavor.
- January 20, 2013 at 3:05 PM
- willowe said...
I have prepared many of Chef John's recipes and most all of them have made it into the regular rotation of dinner ideas. Yummy! But...just made this and got a giant thumbs down. Maybe we just don't care for caraway seeds but if you aren't positive you like them, I would cut back by half the amount the first time through the recipe. Thank you Chef John, for inspiring me to cook new things!

My wife (she's Hungarian) keeps pointing out American gulyas recipes with tomato, macaroni and ground beef. She finds it hilarious that none of the ingredients actually match anything they put in gulyas in Hungary. As a consequence, I really enjoyed the fun intro to your recipe :)
- January 20, 2013 at 10:18 PM
- Sheila said...
Thank you for this recipe, it was perfect. Many moons ago I work as a front desk clerk in a hotel, one of the Chefs was Hungarian and would make goulash and spaetzle for me on occasion and I loved it. I have never tried to make it myself, for fear it would not meet my expectations, I am happy to say your recipe exceeded them.
Thank you!

Whatever translates into hungarian as "mindegy", and i have to agree with you on this one. However it is traditional to do this kind of dish with dumplings, but it's only natural that in urban areas, recipes tend to change, for time conserving etc. These kind of dish is good with almost any kind of side dish. There are people who eat it with a type of pasta called "tarhonya" these are little cylinders about 2-4 mm in diameter and 2mm in height, it's prepared somewhat like rice, only with a slight tosting in oil beforehand.
One personal remark for our hungarian related friends out there, there is no point in arguing how the traditional "goulash" or "gulyás" is made. Throughout history our country was segmented way too many times to keep one original recipe of a dish, just look at the "traditional" fish soup recipe (which i'm quite fond of), it's made differently in every region or county of our country, that is why there are events like the fish soup festival in "Baja" county. Just an impression i thought worth sharing with you. :)
Have a nice day!

I'm going to be trying this out next week - getting the ingredients with my weekly shopping.
I'm 18 and just moved into a place with my boyfriend, he can be quite a picky eater and I'm trying to get a solid list of meals that he really does enjoy!
I'd tried a couple of your recipes on my sisters beforehand and needless to say the plates were always clear at the end of dinner time!
I may not be the best cook (In actuality I'm more of a baker, I have a massive sweet tooth which doesn't help) and it might be my first time actually cooking with beef (eep!) but I have no worries at all!
Thank you Chef John for making your recipes so clear to follow and so god damn tasty, I don't know what I'd do without you! - January 22, 2013 at 6:56 AM

I had Hungarian Goulash from an Eastern European co-worker at an office potluck years ago. I have been trying to find a recipe that was close ever since. This hits the mark! I almost ate the whole pot in one sitting.
- January 24, 2013 at 12:52 AM
- Azalea said...
Thanks I just made this tonight. The sour cream really complemented the spices.
It turned out really good.
However, the meat was a little tough. Is this because I didn't cook it enough or too much? - January 24, 2013 at 5:44 AM
- lisa0116 said...
Chef John, This dish is wonderful too! I forgot to comment on it when I made it the week you posted it. I think you read my mind and then put up recipes of what I have thawed out. Had thawed the chuck roast the night before! LOL! It was very good and who cares what it is called. We call it YUMMY here at the OK Corral!
For those with tough meat, you did not cook it long enough the way Chef John told us to cook it. If it is not the tender he tells us in the video in the time period it took him, then cook it some more until it is to that tender point. All stoves and ovens cook differently. Chuck roast has to simmer for a long time to get tender and then it is really tender and great! - February 7, 2013 at 9:02 PM
- lisa0116 said...
One more thing Chef John, I just want you to know that my husband after every meal I cook from your recipes says thank you Jesus, Chef John, and Lisa! Just thought you should know that.

I made this using smoked paprika and it was overwhelming. Maybe it got burnt or using so much paprika I should use a sweeter variety?

Yes, smoked paprika would be way to strong for this!

Wow. Such a good meal to make while watching the snow fall in NC. Ran out to get caraway seeds and let it simmer thru the morning.
Thanks, Chef John. - February 16, 2013 at 11:42 AM

Thank you such great recipes. I made this the other night and stopped by the store the next day to make sure I had the necessary ingredients on hand to make it again. The creme frache really accents this dish well.

Hello Chef John
I don't own an oven at the moment so could you please tell me how I would make this in a slow cooker.
I do love a lot of your recipes and would really appreciate any you can convert to a slow cooker.
Many thanks,

Would have to test, but just simmer in the SL until fork tender!

I have made this a few times and it is delicious. It takes too long to cut the beef into small pieces, I think bc I dont have a good knife...so I buy it precut. Any brand knifes you would recommend to cut the beef?

I made this last night and it turned out excellent. I just went with what I had on hand which did not include caraway unfortunately, and I had hot smoked paprika. So I'm sure the recipe tasted different but I was pleased. It came out very spicy due to my heavy hand with the cayenne. I don't eat grains so I just had a bowl plain with cole slaw and a marinated cucumber salad on the side. Not very East European...closer to Indian style. I'll make this again. Simple and comforting.

My husband is Hungarian so I have tried "authentic" gulyás but after trying this, I have to say I like this recipe better personally.
