I am planning a trip to Belize in February/March. It will be a girls getaway for three girls in our early 30s. We would like to do a vacation with part of the time in the jungle and part at the beach. I think I know where to go in the jungle, but could use some help on which beach region to go to. Ambergis Caye? Cay Caulker? Placencia? Which has the nicest beaches? We also really like restaurants, shops, cute bars/cafes. Or, a resort that provides those...
Also, any advice on specific hotels/resorts on the beach/in the beach area?
Last... what is the scoop with the beaches there? Is it a nice beach vacation? Sun, swimming, relaxing with frozen drinks? I'm seeing some mixed reviews.
Thank you for any help you can offer!!
Which is the best beach area of Belize?

I wouldn't do Ambergris or Caulker for a beach vacation; the focus there is taking boats out to the reef to snorkel and dive. The beaches around town are mostly hardpan (tho some import sand), and the water has lots of seagrass (and docks and boats). Can't think of anything "cute" in those places.
Placencia is a much better bet, but check out your hotel carefully, if beach bathing/swimming are your aim.

I'd focus on Ambergris but also take a look at Placencia. Our beaches are fine but not stellar and better at some hotels and areas than others. Plenty of nice accomodating places to stay and you'll easily find one that matches your needs and budget

I prefer the beaches on Ambergris. The sand is softer and whiter, and the water is clear, Caribbean blue. They are narrow, and, especially in town, there are lots of docks.
There is also sea grass, it's the price of having the barrier reef less than a mile from shore. There are few waves, hence, the grass.
Placencia has postcard pretty beaches, but, at least in the village, the sand is darker and coarse. On my few trips there, the water hasn't been clear, nor was it blue.
What kind of budget are you looking at for lodging? -

We stayed at Victoria House on Ambergris and loved it. The beach there is big and has beautiful soft, white sand and the water is gorgeous. They have a restaurant and a bar that both offer dining. Also drink service etc. around the pool. There is sea grass in the water, so we did our swimming at the pool. Lots of hammocks and lounge chairs around, beautiful palm trees. We had the place to ourselves a lot of the time. We chose Ambergris due to its proximity to the reef and all the restaurant options in town. You can either bike to town, take a golf cart, or take a taxi for about five bucks. If it's in your budget, I'd go to VH.

I think that there is a tendency here to suggest favorites over what the OP mentioned: "a nice beach vacation? Sun, swimming,"
The intent seems to be beach swimming, and she's offered pool, and the narrowness of the beach is mentioned. Yes, some resorts have improved their beaches, but are really not what OP seems to be looking for.
However, there is more variety on Ambergris for lodging and dining. -

The place I suggested has a gorgeous beach, great drinks, relaxing, sun, and swimming at the pool. Ambergris also has a nice selection of great restaurants, bars, and the other things the OP was looking for. If someone goes somewhere and has a great experience then it seems logical that they would suggest it to other people. We spent a lot of time on the beach there and loved it. The snorkeling at Hol Chan is also amazing, and we loved swimming there. I'd love to go back.

I stand by my comments as well. I simply don't care for the beaches in Placencia. The sand hurts my feet, the water is dark and murky.
Ambergris, though the beaches are narrow, has soft white sand and beautiful Caribbean blue water. -
Report Abuse
OK, my last 2 cents; the sand is soft where it's been created at resorts (I say this after miles of beach walking), ditto the water for swimming (not so great due to sea grass, muddy substrate, and constant boats).
I liked it, but found the snorkeling so-so (Hol Chan was Grand Central Station, and not nearly as good as other places we've been), the "beach relax" vibe ok IF you are staying in a resort, and the beach swimming almost nonexistent.
(Viewing the actual resort sites will give an idea of size of beach.)
For lying in a hammock or beach lounge and watching water and people go by? Great. But, not so great if you are thinking of ocean swimming from the beach; it's all boat-excursion oriented. -
Report Abuse
Reading the OP, I see "girls getaway for three girls in our early 30s" and "We also really like restaurants, shops, cute bars/cafes" and "relaxing with frozen drinks"....all of that adds up to Ambergris in my experience. Much more to do there. The beaches are nice and I get the sense that the OP is using the term beach vacation as a general description of an island holiday.
We stayed in a lovely condo right next door to Victoria House. It was amazing. There are many places closer to town that are equally as nice. Katie is better to advice on which resort is best. -

AC is a coral reef so it is made up of coral and coral sand, no hard pan. You can see the beach very well on gmaps and youtube so look at it there. swimming is often done from the resort dock as the beach can be narrow and have seagrass.
Report Abuse
The beaches on Ambergris Caye are stunning...maybe not great for swimming but beautiful to be on. Placencia beaches which we had been told were white and "postcard" beautiful dulled in comparison. We went to both areas and if I were to return I would go straight to Caulker or Ambergris.

The Feather River College volleyball team continued its incredible winning streak last week, and was just one win away from reaching to the state championship tournament's final four.
FRC hosted Santa Rosa Junior College on Nov. 27. Details of the match were not available at press time. Coverage of the match can be found in next week's Sports section.
With a victory over Santa Rosa, the Eagles would advance to the state semi-final match Saturday, Dec. 1 at Fullerton College. The championship match is scheduled for Dec. 2.
The Eagles played their first two playoff matches last week against Solano on Nov. 20 and Cabrillo on Nov. 24. FRC beat both teams in three games apiece.
The Eagles currently have an amazing 31-2 record. They went undefeated in conference and haven't had to play a fourth game since Sept. 19.
Solano held its own through all three games. The two teams were tied up 15-15 in the first game before FRC blasted away to win the game 25-18. The Eagles stomped Solano in the second game for a 25-9 victory. Solano had an early advantage in the third game and led 5-3. Feather River came back to take the game 25-20.
Amber Hall led the team in kills with a total of 12. Callie Aberle contributed 10 more, along with six digs. The Eagles' setter, Marilyn Agae, had 25 assists.
FRC's match against Cabrillo was an amazing feat for the Eagles. Cabrillo was seeded seventh in Northern California. The Eagles made a statement by beating Cabrillo in only three games.
FRC dominated the first game 25-14. The second game was more even. At one point the two teams were tied 16-16. The Eagles ended the game 25-21 with an ace from Agae. The third game was also close in the beginning, but the Eagles never tired and won 25-20.
Lindsey Ball led the defense with 14 digs. Aberle made 12 kills and several digs. Hall made 11 kills and two blocks. Agae played phenomenally, as always, and assisted 24 times.
"This is do or die time," said the team's coach, Sarah Ritchie. "Our goal from the start of the season was to get to the state championship, so let's reach our goal."

Republican senator Chuck Grassley now says the ATF wasn't just letting guns walk is part of operation fast and furious.
But also possibly buying guns the proof he says turned up at a high profile murder in Mexico.
Correspondent -- martian maps has the latest from Walsh -- way.
Well a question that is how did a gun belonging to a high ranking ATF official end up -- a crime scene.
In Mexico now and November the day after Thanksgiving Mexican police gotten a shoot out with a single cartel.
Afterwards police recovered several weapons including a powerful Belgian made semi automatic pistol.
It was traced back to Jorge to let the assistant special agent in charge of ATF in Phoenix during the fast and furious investigation.
-- it now works at the ATF headquarters in Washington.
Police -- a second weapon to burial pitino.
The key suspect in the case not congressional investigators want to know how long gun belonging to the number two -- ATF showed up.
At the same place on the same day a thousand miles away three years later next to the gun of the Fallon that he was chasing.
Why would the assistant.
In charge of that office be buying guns in the first place and that would raise a question the extent to which.
That person might be involved in the gun trafficking that was going on in profiting from it.
Among those killed in Mexico was beauty queen Maria -- police found -- -- -- and sixty shell -- Next to her body records -- Gillette purchased his weapon at legendary arms the peace gun stores.
And on the federal form used to buy four guns Gillette used the ATF office address twice missile labeling it as an apartment.
And on another occasion he used a strip mall now accorded the law but Gillette and forced buyers are required to use their residential address.
About we did attempt to reach Gillette through the ATF and his attorney but he didn't return calls he did tell another outlet however that he sold that -- on the Internet.
Right fairway we'll follow it thank you.

Application Note: Switching Midstream
Everyone has had the experience of reaching for an object at the bottom of a pool of water only to find that it is not at the location where your eye says it should be. This well-known phenomenon is the result of light refraction at the water's surface. At the micro-level this same phenomenon can be used to alter the course of a light beam in an optical circuit. A small mass of liquid moved in or out of the path of the beam can redirect it by refraction or reflection into a different path.
This concept is particularly attractive in connection with optical fibers where once a beam enters a fiber it is trapped by internal reflections. To make optical circuits of any complexity, it is necessary to have a 'switch' that can redirect light from one fiber to another. A successful switch must be robust, fast acting, easy to make, and consume little energy. Needless to say, there is a considerable amount of research currently underway to develop an effective optical switch (see, for example, Scientific American January 2001).
One concept that has been proposed is based on thermo-capillarity. A small drop of liquid is placed in a micro channel that intersects a fiber-optic light beam. When the drop is moved along the channel to where the beam must pass through it, the beam is reflected into a different fiber. The drop is moved by differentially heating its two sides. This causes changes in the surface tension in the menisci on either side of the drop such that the drop is pulled toward the cooler end of the channel. The accompanying figure shows a FLOW-3D simulation of a drop of water in a 14mm-wide channel that is being heated at the bottom.
A light beam may switch when it is mid-stream of the liquid drop, but there is no need for you to switch software mid-stream for your optical-switch or other MEMS research. FLOW-3D has a comprehensive kit of physical modeling tools that will satisfy nearly all your MEMS needs.

Matt Willkomm scored a game-high 16 points to lead the Arroyo Grande High boys basketball team to a 45-35 win over rival San Luis Obispo on Friday.
The Eagles improved to 2-3 in Pac 7 League play and 13-6 overall. The Tigers dropped their third-straight league game and fell to 1-3 in league.
Willkomm hit two 3-pointers for the Eagles. Andrew Midyett added 6 points for AG, while DeSean Scott, Brennan Rivera and Cobe Williams added 5 points each.
David Thoreson and Carlson Schwoerer led the Tigers with 11 points apiece.
The Tigers led 10-9 after the first quarter, but the Eagles took the lead for good in the second quarter and led 23-20 at the half. AG outscored the Tigers 14-8 in the fourth to seal the victory.
AG returns to action Wednesday against Paso Robles, while San Luis Obispo battles St. Joseph.

Colonial District Getting Solar-Powered Schools
The Whitemarsh Township Supervisors have approved the Colonial School District's plans for solar collector panels at two schools. Once the panels are installed and operating, they should produce 25,000 kilowatt hours of renewable energy each year, saving the school district an estimated $1.5 million on electric bills over a 20-year period. The rooftop installations at Plymouth-Whitemarsh High School and Colonial Elementary School will rise 18 inches above sheet metal and plastic foam bases. The existing roofs will remain, with no need to cut through them, and the funding comes from a state grant, not local taxpayers.

fiduciary relationship
Definition from Nolo's Plain-English Law Dictionary
A relationship in which an individual places complete confidence, trust, and reliance in someone who has a fiduciary duty to act for the individual's benefit. A fiduciary relationship need not be formally or legally established; it may be assumed where the fiduciary has superior knowledge and training compared to the person whose affairs the fiduciary is handling.

First place team of Capt. Sandy Melvin and Michael Vaughn |
It was a beautiful fall day for a fishing tournament on Tuesday, Nov. 22 as nine boats dipped lines in the water in search of redfish, for the 18th annual Gasparilla Island Fishing Tournament.
In first place was Capt. Sandy Melvin and angler Michael Vaughn. Second place was taken by Capt. Bob Melvin and his angler, Ron Walker.
The two-man teams fished from 9 a.m. until 2 p.m. to benefit the Gasparilla Island Maritime Museum, located next to Whidden's Marina. In all, about $3,600 was raised.
In keeping with what's become a tradition, both teams donated their winnings back to the Gasparilla Island Maritime Museum. "It was beautiful weather for fishing," said Capt. Sandy, the tournament coordinator. "We had high tides and a little wind, which made sight fishing a little difficult. But it was a great time."
The winning redfish was 19 3/4 inches long.
"We had a great party the night before, and had some amazing prizes donated by local businesses," Melvin said. "The grand prize was an Orvis 9-weight flyrod. PJ's did a great job hosting the party, and we are more than grateful to all the businesses that contributed raffle prizes."
Donations for the raffle were provided by PJs Seagrille, Betsy Joiner, Grapevine, Pink Pony/Dolphin Cove, Hudson's, Barbara Anne's, Ariel, Barnichol, Sun Porch, Fresh Produce, Boca Grande Outfitters, Temptation, Loose Caboose, Aqua and the Antique Boutique.

Gotta say that ass is fucking hot man, I love the ass being slightly pale and more white than the tanned legs
The answer is simple, summer went to Florida, I'm sure that will become her residence of the moment soon enough.
WRT to following the Summer round the world, has she and/or Wiggy even been outside the US since the pair hooked up? Wiggy generally sounds like he has absolutely no interest in the world outside of the States and also seems to hate the idea of travel anywhere.
As a matter of interest has Howard been to many places outside the States in his lifetime?

Must be she couldn't think of a title with the word "bliss" in it. Dumb twat.
it's not like she has to go back to school or back to work,etc. after a summer break.
it is summer vacation year round for this spoiled prostitute
Howard's working hard as usual
Fucking cunt. She's doing this on purpose. She should use what little time she has left as a "celebrity" to make peace with her stepdaughters.

Which is worse....looking up Seal's nostril while he is banging you or Howard's schnozz while he does the bunny vibrator dance. I guess you close your eyes, pretend you are laying on a beach late summer and ask, where did summer go?
I fucking hate her useless cunt existence and hope she gets a horrible, painful boil on that skinny anoxeric ass of hers.
Bet money Howard was wearing a summer scarf while taking that pic
Someone needs to teach this nitwit the seasons. I thought we went over this last year. She can't hold a thought in her head that long and got confused again.

It's no wonder inventors are racing to develop the best type of engine to power tomorrow's fleet of hybrids as automakers rush to get enviro-friendly cars on the road and consumers are tempted by a new $7,500 tax incentive being offered for buying one. But it's not only new inventions that are vying for a piece of the action: Microsoft co-founder Bill Gates, former Microsoft chief technology officer Nathan Myhrvold, and other entrepreneurs are attempting to put a new face on technology that's been kicking around for more than a century—an electromagnetic engine that turns mechanical into electrical energy.
The U.S. Patent and Trademark Office last week published a patent application describing an internal combustion engine that "converts mechanical energy of a piston to and from electrical energy during each piston cycle" submitted in October 2007 by Searette LLC, part of Intellectual Ventures, a Bellevue, Wash., company launched in 2000 to buy and license patents. Gates, who was still Microsoft's chief software architect at the time the patent was filed, is listed as one of 10 inventors on the application.
The patent app outlines several different options for configuring such an electromagnetic engine. Among them: using internal combustion of some sort of fuel (which the patent application refers to as a "reactant") to move a piston equipped with a magnet to generate electric current, or using electrical current (supplied by a battery or some other power source) to move the magnet (as well as the piston), or both. As Fast Company puts it, this is possibly a blueprint for a "hybrid engine without the need for two discrete drivetrains, as with today's hybrids."
Critics say Searate's proposed electromagnetic combustion engine is nothing new. The patent describes a conventional internal combustion engine with coils wrapped around the cylinder liners and a magnet on the bottom of the piston to react with this coil and move the piston during the engine's other three strokes (intake, compression, and exhaust), so that the engine doesn't lose too much energy while it's powering the car's drivetrain, says inventor Michael Walden, who in the 1970s designed, built, and demonstrated the first fully self-powered aircraft to use an electrokinetic, silent-field propulsion system. (The propulsion system works "like one of those room air ionizers—but a lot stronger," he adds.)
It's "not an efficient way they are talking about," he says. "How much energy are they going to use pushing that magnet through the coil?"
An engine built according to the configuration described in the patent application might require more gas to function (a definite no-no these days) than a normal combustion engine or it might include an external power source that adds more weight to vehicle, Walden says. He also notes that the patent application doesn't state how the engine would keep the relatively fragile magnetic materials cool or intact during the piston movement.
The invention of a type of electromagnetic piston engine that's far afield from the information technology that helped Gates and his colleagues make their name (not to mention their fortune) lends some ammunition to charges that Intellectual Ventures is little more than a "patent troll." A patent troll is a company that makes money by licensing the patents it buys (rather than offering its own products and service) and by suing those who infringe upon its patents. Indeed, the company (which is only nine years old) claims to own more than 20,000 patents.
"The situation with Intellectual Ventures is that nobody's quite sure what they're up to," says Ron Laurie, managing director of Inflexion Point Strategy, LLC, a Palo Alto, Calif. firm specializing in advising companies during mergers and acquisitions.
But Laurie points out that Intellectual Ventures has yet to file a lawsuit to protect any of its patents and that the company's founders have a strong track record of inventing important technologies.* "Within Intellectual Ventures there are actual research and development groups," he says, adding that to be a true patent troll, a company has to be a "non-practicing entity" (NPE). Laurie adds, "They're clearly more than an NPE."

Nice PR piece!
Bill Gates has *never* invented anything. Ever.
He's either bought it, copied it, or stolen it.
DOS Stolen. Office bought. Zune copied. Windows copied. Origami failed. Hot Mail bought. Basic on chip copied. Money? Stolen. The list really goes on to infinity. Like Great Plains Accounting.
Ask EOLAS. Ask the U.S. Justice Department. Ask any M$ customer if they've ever been cheated. Pay the Microsoft TAX with Conficker. Or any of the other 200,000 virii that thrive on this man's failures.
Oh, and he's a convicted MONOPOLIST.
Anything else, Scientific American? Anything on Population Control by Hitler?
With Bill Gates money, he can make anything happen and he can make it happen fast. I wish he would build an auto manufacturing plant that builds affordable electric cars so we can get away from coal and oil. I also wish he would advance me the capital so I can start building an all green news journal in America. I have the idea to make news papers all green, but living in West Virginia, I cannot find an investment broker that will advance me the start-up capital. I can put a green journal in every state and every county in America for under $300,000,000.00. The three hundred million would insure that the 5,000 employees get paid for a year while the journal establishes itself financially. I know that Bill Gates is a green thinker and he also knows the (all) profit in a well established green news journal. Give me a chance Mr. Gates and I will prove myself to you. With your resources, you can find me.
Reply | Report Abuse | Link to thisThere are many isssues confronting electric cars, including the fact that it takes a lot of electricity to move a vehicle down the road and this electric energy largely comes from coal plants which may produce as much pollution as the gasoline-powered cars this energy is used to replace. Gasoline is still much more efficient.
Further, vehicle cost is still a big issue. The GM Volt is projected to cost $40,000.
Finally, battery disposal itself creates big environmental headaches. We solve one problem and create another.
Bill Gates, like most business people, has the skill to take good ideas from many sources and bring them to market so that they become accessible to many people. For this, he deserves much credit.
Perhaps he can help spearhead and integrate new approaches to assist in overcoming the many problems that surround moving to a (or several) new power sources for the very economical but politically undesireable gasoline engine for automobiles.
Major auto manufacturers and many others are working on these issues and we can only hope that scientists, engineers, visionaries and business people can combine their talents to bring new solutions to market in the relatively near future.
Bill Gates inventor?
"company's founders have a strong track record of inventing important technologies, including Windows".
?? Windows was not invented, it was copied from OS/2 and the Xerox OS. BG is a businessman, not an inventor. Yes, BG has a ton on money that converts him a semi-god in the PR world, but not, he is not an inventor.
He is a smart businessman type, they bought DOS by X and sold it for 20X. They bought Word, Powerpoint by X and sold it by... Hey, they even bought the "Windows", "Word", "Powerpoint", "explorer", "excel" trademarks, something being them generic names is illegal but they bought it putting money over the table.
They copied OpenGL with DirectX, they copied Ipod with Zune. I don't thing they invented ANYTHING.
Please give credit when credit is due. To the real inventors that don't have so much money, so for you are not so important. I thought sciam people would know more about real inventors.
Thats not entirely ture lead acid batteries are the MOST recycled batteries out there. However most hybreds do not use those types of batteries and ALL batteries in hybreds are designed to be recycled. Lythium betteries tends to the most environmentaly freindly batteries and they are becomming more popular. The problem is in the storage of enough power to to ensure a adquate driving range.
I like the idea engine the generates electricty but it seems to me to be something that some one is "tinkering" with and not ready for general use.
I think the phrase this article is desperately trying to grope for is 'free piston engine'. Which is not a new invention.
This type of engine has a fatal flaw. The internal combustion engine, like all heat engines, has better efficiency the hotter it runs. The efficiency of the electromagnetic engine, on the other hand, drops dramatically with increasing temperature. So you have conflicting requirements for the two motors. So the electric motor has to be thermally isolated from the heat engine or new magnetic materials must be developed. Neither is an easy task.
BTW Bill Gates is a very, very smart and hardworking businessman, but is not and never was an inventor.
Has anyone noticed engines have gotten smaller and the number of gears in the transmission has gotten larger. Add more gears to the transmission and go to two speed differential. The accelerator pedal should be removed from controlling the engine. Most efficient engine speed and gear selection controlled by computer. Most large trucks and buses have 21 plus gears between transmission and differential.

While this is true, it might be better to lose 2% efficiency in the alternator due to heat efects, then lose 20% efficiency in the crankshaft and gears due to mechanical effects. With correctly chosen materials the effect you imply is a 'showstopper' might actually be tiny and unimportant.

There are many issues confronting electric cars,
JDThe only real issue is big auto hates them because they rarely break and last forever. Jay Leno has a 1911 Baker Electric that goes 110 miles
and 45mph, faster than the roads then and still has some of the original batteries of Nickel /ironi Edison batteries, not exactly bad environmentally. Neither are LiFePHo4 batts. Even lead is the most recycled material in the US.
Why did Chevron buy the NiMH battery patents and then force Toyota, ect to stop making EV size ones? The RAV4 EV's now sell for $75k vs the $45k they sold for 8-10 yrs ago? They go 85mph and 130 mile range.
including the fact that it takes a lot of electricity to move a vehicle down the road
JD EV's need 30% of the energy/mile than gas cars.
and this electric energy largely comes from coal plants which may produce as much pollution as the gasoline-powered cars this energy is used to replace.
JD, another lie. According to the EPA website EV's from coal make much less pollution than gas cars do. And that's old data as present coal plants are much cleaner. But unlike gas cars EV's can use RE electricity directly making them 50x's less polluting than a gas car. Plus one can make their own for transport and home..
Gasoline is still much more efficient.
JD It's lies like this that will keep us deeply in debt. EV's are 3x's as eff as gas ones.
Further, vehicle cost is still a big issue. The GM Volt is projected to cost $40,000.
I built my EV's for under $5k. My service car style trike gets 600mpg equivalent and my 3 seat sportwagon gets 250mpge. Keep driving your gas cars if you want but EV's once in real mass production or build your own is many times less expensive.
Finally, battery disposal itself creates big environmental headaches. We solve one problem and create another.
JD I can only guess you work for either big auto or oil as your post is filled with lies which have hired for yrs trolls to put garbage like this on the web. Since your lies also directly support Iran, Russia, oil dictators and terrorists their are other things you could be called. What would you call those who support our enemies?
On the free piston engine it too is a ineff joke. A constant speed very small ICE running a gen and an EV drive is by far the most eff system for fossil fuel but as Li will allow 300 mile range EV's even that is moot.
I'm from russia ?and here in russia we have some scientific magazine(like "Popular mechanics") called "Youth Technique" in 1970-s authors mentioned about some engine that worked as Bill Gates' engine.(The idea has about 40 years history!!!!!!)
So he just grabbed idea's of others,and used it/(((((((((((((
Sincerly yours,with respect for you dear readers , and with disrespect for Bill Gates)))))
i have the answer to Bill Gates engine which is not correct i have a concept for building an engine that need no fuel all it needs is money to bring it to life replacing the fuel driven engines of the world iwould be happy to give my idea to Mr Gates because i think he and the people he employs can make my idea into a working engine that will make the atmosphere clean and blue agin in our lifetime and i also this could help third world countris by not having to burn fuel to raise crops i have thought of so many things this engine can be used for.
Hopefuly Mr Bill Gates will respond to this thru you fine people at SciAm.

Recipe by hrgdane
"A simple quiche that doesn't require a great deal of time to prepare but still has good flavor."
Watch video tips and tricks
2 tablespoons butter
2 cups sliced mushrooms
2 cups reduced-fat sour cream
4 eggs
1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
1/4 cup all-purpose flour
1 tablespoon heavy whipping cream
1 teaspoon onion powder
1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
1/4 teaspoon salt
6 drops hot pepper sauce, or more to taste
1/2 (10 ounce) package frozen chopped spinach, thawed and drained
2 cups shredded Cheddar cheese
This is the most amazing and delicious quiche I've ever made, and I've made a ton of quiche. The only thing I changed was subbed Greek yogurt for the sour cream, and included a chopped onions with the mushroom, omitted the onion powder, and added a tablespoon of ground mustard. A winner and a keeper for sure!! Thanks for sharing.
I made it as written, and while edible, I found it a little too sour (as in sour cream). I used low fat sour cream, so perhaps if I had used regular sour cream it would have been better.
21 Ratings
This is ALMOST a real 5 star recipe, quite unlike any crustless quiche I've ever made. I followed the recipe exactly, because I think it is unfair to rate a recipe that has been modified. It is delicious as it stands - the texture is so smooth and it is very, very rich. The directions are easy to follow, and it is uncomplicated to make. There were three of us at dinner, and I divided it into fourths, but it would easily serve six, as none of us could completely finish our portions. My husband commented that it could be more colorful, so I think I'll add some diced sweet red pepper to the mushrooms next time I make it. I might also use diced onion and garlic, as some reviewers have suggested. Also, it took mine a full hour in the oven to be ready to eat. Thanks for the great recipe; we all agreed that I should make it again, soon.
Awesome. I was fridge-raiding to use up my overstock of eggs, but didn't have all the ingredients, so I used different cheese (mozzarella and a basil/tomato white cheddar mixed) and threw in a little Sopressa for kicks and this quiche turned out better than most I've purchased at bistros. I highly recommend trying this out and/or adding your own twist. It was easy to prepare before baking as well, which is important to me.
This was delicious and easy! I subbed greek yogurt for the sour cream, used fresh spinach instead, and added some extra spices instead of using hot sauce. The sourness of the greek yogurt had me a bit concerned, so I sprinkled just a few dashes of sugar in, too. Like previous commenters, I sauteed the mushrooms with minced garlic. I also used pecorino instead of parmesan because it was what I had on hand. Thanks very much!
My husband and I thought this was delicious! It was certainly easy. None of my kids would try it however, but I don't know why.
This quiche was great! I substituted half a chopped onion and 2 minced garlic cloves for the onion and garlic powder and just sauteed with the mushrooms. It had tons of flavor this way! I also did not have cheddar on hand, but had monterey jack so I just used that. Still great! Will try with cheddar next time.
Incredibly delicious, easy to make, and healthy too! Very little prep time involved as using a blender to make the egg mixture speeds up the process - - pop it in the oven and go about doing other tasks. Made changes based on suggestions by some reviewers as well as an aim to reduce the fat content and pack this already healthy quiche with more vegetables. Instead of 2 cups sour cream, used 1-1/4 cups sour cream and 3/4 cup nonfat Greek yogurt (6 oz. tub) based on several reviewers feeling it was a tad sour tasting. Added 1/4 red bell pepper, 1 large carrot, 1/4 Vidalia onion, 2 cloves garlic, and the entire (10 ounce) package frozen spinach. Left the egg mixture pretty much as is except for adding 1 more egg and subbing almond milk for the heavy whipping cream. Used a 9" deep dish ceramic pie baker, and the dish was filled perfectly. Took 50 minutes to bake given the extra ingredients which were added. The only change next time would be to adjust the seasonings a little for our personal preferences and be a bit more liberal with the hot sauce. Thank you for sharing, hrgdane, and this recipe is destined to be a winner on this site.

According to The Desert Sun News ....Coachella Sold 68,000 of 160,000 tickets during the presale.
the info is based on last year...but it would make sense they are going about it the same.

Jesus Christ. Last year, the presale lasted an entire week. They put the REMAINING tickets up for the onsale. This year, they sold almost all of their tickets within hours.
So... Cat Power and La Roux will be there?

no, save it for evidence in the future, a place to direct people when baily spouts off in other threads.
You started this, motherfucker. Enjoy burning in hell.
How so? It went the entire week and nothing ''sold out'' except for tent camping. So give me some more logic on how what they did last year is the same from this year? So they sold only 68,000 tickets in 4 hours cause they wanted to match that number again? Get your head checked

Hooked - (Stacia Naquin)
Updated: 10/11/2013 - I'm SO CLOSE to being able to do a pull-up. So my trainer introduced something new into my training.
The Pikes Peak Regional Building Department reports that 101 permits to rebuild homes lost to the Waldo Canyon Fire are now issued.
Construction on dozens of homes is already well underway in the neighborhoods most affected by the fire, but the issuing of permits approaching one-third of the total homes lost represents a major milestone for Colorado Springs Together, the citizen led partnership of private, public and non-profit sectors along with neighbor representatives formed to facilitate and coordinate rebuilding and repair in Mountain Shadows.
"We have the utmost respect for the spirit and courage that those who lost homes have exhibited," said Bob Cutter, president of Colorado Springs Together. A total of 347 homes were lost in the fire, and many more were damaged.
"Understandably the emotional impact of the losses has been significant, but we know that the insurance claims process, while slow for some property owners, is well underway, with most companies having settled the majority of their claims," said Cutter. "Not that there aren't claims remaining to be settled, because there certainly are, but one look at the building activity and we can see the rebuilding process is moving forward."

Well Art Discussion recently seems to be more or less 'How do I do insert topic here' so I just thought I'd ask a light hearted question.
I remember a video from John Cleese I believe it was, on creativity. Where creativity is fostered under certain conditions that got me wondering because I almost always find myself inspired to draw at night. It fits all the criteria but I think I've done it so consistently over time that is has become conditioned to the point where the urge comes at a certain point of day/night. I often draw before bed then wake up and the urge to finish what I'm working on just vanishes. I never feel like drawing in the morning. Then if I don't get an urge to draw in the day, inspiration almost always hits around the same point that night.
Anyone else experience this?

Tail Mixes.
Fiona, from Boulder, has a range of products, most of which are wheat free, but not gluten-free. This Strawberry Mango quinoa crunch is one of her gluten-free options, and it's so good. We had it for breakfast with almond milk. The ingredients are: Organic Quinoa, Sorghum, Organic Agave Nectar, Safflower Oil, Organic Strawberries, Mangos, Pure Lemon Oil
These trail mixes by Enjoy Life were another road-trip must-have. We snacked on them in the car while driving. So delicious. The ingredients are: Mountain Mambo: sunflower kernels, pumpkin seeds, raisins, apples, (dairy-free) chocolate chips, and cranberries. Beach Bash: sunflower kernels, pineapple, pumpkin seeds, cranberries and apricots.
Andy preferred the Mountain Mambo, while I preferred the Beach Bash. The girls couldn't decide—they loved them both.
Happy traveling :-)
♥, Kelly

Former West Chicago bank transforms into immediate care facility
WEST CHICAGO – West Chicago recently welcomed a new, state-of-the-art healthcare facility to the Mosaic Crossing Shopping Center, according to a news release from the city of West Chicago.
A former drive-up bank building at 1865 N. Neltnor Blvd. has been renovated to become Access Urgent Care and Vein Clinic, an immediate care facility that is expected to provide community members with a less expensive alternative to an emergency room, the release said.
"The city of West Chicago is delighted that the vacant bank building has been meticulously repurposed into a modern and convenient healthcare facility for our residents, and we welcome Access Urgent Care and Vein Clinic to our community as a local business partner," Mayor Ruben Pineda said in the release.

CHICAGO — Shortly before he won a $1 million lottery jackpot, a Chicago businessman inked a deal with his partner to ensure that his share of several dry-cleaning stores went to his wife in the event of his death. Several weeks later, he died mysteriously from cyanide poisoning.
The unusual inheritance agreement is sure to fuel the fight among relatives of Urooj Khan over his estate, once estimated at $2 million.Khan's siblings already had raised concerns that his widow, Shabana Ansari, might keep the lottery winnings for herself instead of sharing the proceeds with Khan's 17-year-old daughter from a previous marriage.
Khan's sister, Meraj Khan, said her suspicions of Ansari's motives have intensified since learning yesterday of the business agreement. "Things are getting more clear about why my brother is gone," the sister said. "Out of nowhere, she's the beneficiary for … the business?"
Ansari has been questioned by Chicago police detectives in her husband's death, but she has denied wrongdoing and has not been accused of a crime.
The business contract means that Ansari owns half of the dry-cleaning operation and its real estate, valued at more than $1 million, instead of those assets being divided among heirs in probate court, said her lawyer, Al-Haroon Husain.
When the estate's final value is determined, it probably will be split evenly between Ansari and Khan's daughter, he said. "He died without a will, so under Illinois law, it would be split 50-50," Husain said. "The only difference is, 50-50 of what?"
Khan, 46, won the lottery prize in May and died suddenly in mid-July before collecting.

For the second year in a row, Palmdale ended the Nipomo High boys soccer team's season in the second round of CIF. The visiting Falcons scored three first half goals and held on to beat the Titans 3-1 in a Division 3 game on Wednesday.
The Titans finished the season 13-10-4. Palmdale, which is ranked 9th in the state and 28th in the nation according to MaxPreps, improved to 23-4-2.
The Falcons were threatening inside the box in the 18th minute when Nipomo defender Jesus Valdez was called for a foul. Oscar Torres, the team's senior co-captain, sent the penalty kick by goalie Johann Ayala to give Palmdale a 1-0 lead. Just eight minutes later, Ruben Gomez sent a cross to Erick Martinez, who bent his shot just inside the far post to make it a 2-0 game. Jose Tobar scored his 19th goal of the season in the 33rd minute to give Palmdale a 3-0 lead at the half.
The Titans got on the board in the 65th minute on a goal from Caleb Doane, assisted by Ben Jimenez.
It marked the final prep game for eight Nipomo seniors, including leading scorer Caleb Doane (13 goals, 11 assists), Jonathan Gomez (9 goals, 5 assists) and Ben Jimenez (5 goals, 13 assists).
The Central Coast went 0-4 in second round games on Wednesday. Los Padres League champion Santa Ynez lost 1-0 at home to La Sierra. Pac 7 champion Righetti fell 3-2 at home to Godinez. Arroyo Grande lost on the road at Tahquitz 1-0.

A solid cedar top and mahogany body give this beauty singing tone.
The La Patrie Concert Classical Guitar has a solid cedar top and solid mahogany back and sides. Also features mahogany neck with rosewood fretboard, rosewood bridge with compensated saddle, gold "lyra" style tuners with pearloid buttons, and semi-gloss satin finish. The Concert guitar is La Patrie's top-of-the-line of the mahogany/cedar models. The Concert receives eight coats of lacquer that are buffed down to a highly responsive high gloss finish. This special process takes eight days to complete.
800-Year Old Trees
All LaPatrie guitars feature solid cedar tops. The wood used in these tops can be found only in cedar trees that have an average age of about 800 years. The tight, straight grain in this wood makes it strong in the direction of the string tension while at the same time flexible across the grain lines. It is this combination of rigidity and flexibility that give the guitar top its resonance. The vibration of the guitar top is the most crucial element of its sound.
Lacquer Finish
LaPatrie guitars are finished with a special lacquer formula. This finish is light enough to allow the wood to breath and vibrate freely. The tops resonating capacity actually improves as the guitar is played over an extended period of time. This gradual improvement in the response of the top is often referred to as "aging". Poly finishes inhibit top vibration and are therefore never used on LaPatrie guitars. Many other guitars use a thick plastic finish that smothers top vibration and prevents the benefits of aging.
Classics that are comfortable to play
Classical guitars of the past have typically been made with thick neck dimensions, while this promoted a certain amount of neck stability, it often made certain playing aspects difficult to execute. It is for this reason that special attention was directed to the neck design of the LaPatrie guitars. Neck width and string spacing conform to classical standards, but a new truss rod system allows the profile of the neck to be reduced producing a neck of extraordinary comfort, while increasing stability. The LaPatrie necks are carved from Honduras mahogany. All LaPatrie models feature a rosewood fingerboard and bridge. Case sold separately.
