Victorian dilemma
By crumblie (28 reviews) from Attleborough , 29 Sep 2009[Highly rated reviewer]
This film is a mix of scientific discovery and personal tradgedy and is imbued with victorian views and principles! It explores Darwins dilemma in that publishing his theory he goes against God and his wife a devout Christian! It is almost as though he is being punished in his personal life for his beliefs! A must see film if a little long and with too many agonised close ups of Darwins face for my liking!Fine acting throughout and wonderful photography.- Was this review helpful to you?

(91)A confused movie
By SGo (5 reviews) , 05 Aug 2013[Highly rated reviewer]
I think the movie needed more of an explanation about the fact that Darwin and his wife were first cousins. She was a Wedgewood. Marrying cousins is practiced among the elite in Europe regularly. A few of his children had issues or were poorly.The movie needed more of a historical context. There had been others proposing the idea of evolution before Darwin it wasn't a new idea.- Was this review helpful to you?

Darwin the Man
By Robinski (180 reviews) from Glasgow , 07 Jun 2013More about the man and his personal circumstances at the time of its writing than about the social and political consequences of the publication of his master-work, which is what I was hoping for. Still an enjoyable piece however, with good performances all around, Paul Bettany being the stand out.- Was this review helpful to you?

The first known and confirmed cyber super weapon has been discovered. It's called Stuxnet and technically it is a logic bomb. It is capable of spreading like a virus or worm, and can rewrite the operating systems controlling powerplants including nuclear. It is specifically designed to sabotage power plants, and it wants to do it too.
The CIA used a logic bomb in 1982 to destroy the Siberian gas pipeline in the Soviet Union; that explosion was visible from space. But that was a long time ago before the internet and USB sticks. Now things are much easier to destroy.
Stuxnet's new abilities including being able to rewrite the logic system in, say, the machinery of a power plant and then covering its tracks. The result? All manner of things could happen to the plant, including a meltdown, and a meltdown is something you do not want to happen at a site with a nuclear reactor. The kind of supervisory control and data acquisition (or SCADA) components Stuxnet targets are used in everything from chemical, electric and nuclear power plants to factories all over the world. In other words, this thing could seriously damage a country's physical economy, power grid or production capabilities.
In other words, all those movies we've seen where terrorists or governments use hackers to destroy the infrastructure of the United States; well it's all possible now, and Stuxnet is the first REAL example of this.

One reviewer called it 'sexist.' In that era, women were kept removed from the world, so men were the ones who made the initial contacts with reality and their sexuality. If Lawrence had written about that society in any other way, he would have been inaccurate. Lawrence shows the social conflict with both subtlety and brutality. Yet, Mellor IS a lover. There are sexual descriptions which are explicit, but within the coccoon of emotional bondings.
The way that Lawrence has essayed the class structure of England in that era is brave and accurate in all ways. He makes the posturing of the aristocracy both frivilous and full of assinine criteria at the same time he understands the willingness of those in power to offer their lives in the defense of the general welfare.
Lawrence notes again with unpleasant accuracy the detriments of an unchecked Industrial Revolution on the social structure of the time. He has Constance both witness these effects and suffer the olfactory damage.
This is a literary work which has an effect across the full spectrum of the possible. Finely drawn characters searching for a better way to survive their lives in a scenario that is rife with obstacles and unpleasantness. He has the touch of the finest artist working with the lightest gossamer and the blunt force of an ogre swinging a stone axe.
This was published in an abridged version because it was felt that the societal message it conveyed should be allowed to transit the draconian (by the less filtered standards of today) censorship of the era which DID focus on the sexual descriptions but could NOT stop the voice of social criticism any more than the same group could stop Dickens a few decades earlier.
D.H. Lawrence makes some striking observations about the state of the social classes in post WWI England, as well as providing some good insights into tough individual decisions we make in regard to relationships. I had limited knowledge of the post-war subject beforehand, but I felt that I learned a great deal in the process of reading. At times the book seemed repetitive, as if Lawrence were beating me over the head with his message, sacrificing character and plot in the process, but after all was said and done I couldn't say that it was a bad book. It's a very insightful, multi-layered work and I'm very glad I read it. The fact that the book was widely banned from publication in its early days is just another tempting reason to read it although, by today's standards, what was so risqué then borders on the ridiculous for us now. As long as you remind yourself of the time period in which it was written you'll be just fine...the laughs and raised eyebrows in conjunction with more serious themes are a pleasant mix.

Its not often I have a sit down restaurant lunch during the working day, however it was cold, rainy and miserable in Melbourne and the warmth of a restaurant meal appealed more than sushi or a sandwich then back to the office. When you choose an unfamiliar restaurant you don't always know the details of what the food will be like.
On this occasion the company was good so there were no real issues with the 45 minute wait for our food to arrive. It wasn't until about the 35th minute that we noticed the length of time we had been building out appetite. The size of the establishment wasn't massive, we weren't in a school food hall. The little cafe of choice sat a mere 10-12 people tops.
I chose the burger, salad and chips and Bids ordered a chicken salad. In terms of expected cooking time, it immediately screams a 10-15 minute to turn around and serve. That would be a solid effort when you consider that the local fish and chip shop on a Friday night manages to do a burger amongst 30 other orders in about 10 minutes.
As Australians continue to learn on Mastershef night after night, preparation is the key. Considering that the only "cooking" of our order as such was the chicken for the salad, the burger meat and my chips this should have been a piece of cake.
Let's just jump forward to the meal arriving, as whilst I had 45 minutes to wait for the food I am sure you don't have that time to waste on reading cooking tips when you have your 30 minutes of George, Matt and Gary to watch this evening.
Utter disappointment is the most appropriate word to describe my feelings when finally, my meal of burger, salad and crisps arrived. I had obviously misread the menu and believed I would be getting hot chips as a side. Instead I got a handful - barely half a packet of the smallest packet.The kind of small packet from one of those mega packs that Mum's get to throw in the school lunch over the course of the week.
There is no real lesson here other than read the menu properly before ordering, or just stick to the Fish n' Chip shop burgers where you know your minimum serve chips with your burger will be on its way to your stomach within 15 minutes of ordering.
And another thing....
Ordering coffee at many of Melbourne's cafe's is a key part of many people's day. Finding a barista that you like, has good banter, knows your name and your order and or course most importantly makes good coffee is high in determining if your work location is a good one or not.
So for the baristas out there that often only get one opportunity to make it happen for a customer, consider the following as a guide to winning a chance at repeat business in the future. So here are a couple of early tips - there will no doubt be more to come.
1. If making a coffee to go - make it that little bit hotter - as often you are moving somewhere before sitting down to drink. I know there are anal people out there that are worried about burning the milk, but if all you do most of the day is make coffee, then you should be able to make it hot enough to not burn, but to be warmer than room temperature five minutes later.
2. When I have my coffee to dine in and order before someone else orders a coffee to go - then do as a queue was designed for - serve people in order, or in English give me my coffee first. Too many baristas obviously don't love the pressure of people standing around the till waiting for their coffee. Bad luck, why should I wait just because I am choosing to sit down. When I do order take away I am more than happy to wait - just make sure the coffee is the right temperature.

Upon completion of a 1974 study on the status of women, the Alexandria City Council established the Commission for Women in order to eliminate gender discrimination and to encourage equal opportunity for women in all aspects of their lives. Today, the Commission's members continue to provide advice and consultation to City Council on issues concerning women.
For more information or to join an Alexandria Board or Commission, contact the Alexandria Clerk of the Council at 703.746.3975. To contact the Commission for Women, e-mail the Commission Chair or call 703.593.0610.
The Commission for Women is composed of 15 volunteers, appointed by the City Council, and an Executive Director from the City staff. The Commission meets the second Tuesday of every month, from September through June, at 7:30pm in Room 2000 at City Hall. All Commission meetings are open to the public. We welcome residents to sit-in on a meeting.
Commission sub-committees include advocacy, monitoring city workforce, women's history, Salute to Women's Award Banquet, and Take Our Daughters and Sons to Work Day.
Commission efforts are largely centered on:
(1) Supporting existing City programs that focus on women, specifically the Domestic Violence Program (DVP), the Sexual Assault Program (SAP), and the Alexandria Campaign on Adolescent Pregnancy (ACAP).
(2) Providing guidance and advice to the City on relevant legislation and public policy issues.
(3) Sponsoring awareness and outreach events, including the Annual Salute to Women Awards Banquet and Take Our Daughters and Sons to Work Day.
(4) The preservation and promotion of women's history in Alexandria through the Women's History Tour and related projects.
In addition, the Commission stays very active on affairs within the city. Commissioners learn about and provide insight on local issues by attending Council meetings, hearings and symposia, inviting speakers to Commission meetings, and attending educational and civic programs within the City and around the region. In FY 2011, the Commission has hosted several local organizations at its monthly meetings to discuss topics such as promoting healthy families, sexual assault, sex trafficking, and the City's anti-obesity efforts.
For FY 2012, the Commission for Women is focusing its advocacy efforts on teenage pregnancy prevention through assisting the Alexandria Campaign on Adolescent Pregnancy (ACAP).
The Commission for Women sponsors annual community events, such as the Salute to Women Awards Banquet and Take Our Daughters and Sons to Work Day; and is a coordinating partner for the annual Walk to Fight Breast Cancer.Through its non-profit arm, the Friends of the Commission for Women, the Commission also assists with an annual fundraiser whose proceeds are designated for a specific program or area of need each year and a winter holiday Women's Art Party showcasing the work of local women artists.
Other activities throughout the year include:
There are many opportunities to volunteer for the Commission for Women. Examples of one-time service projects include staffing the Commission's table at the Old Town Farmer's Market or helping clean up at the Walk to Fight Breast Cancer. Longer-term opportunities might include becoming a guide for our Women's History Tour or serving on the Friends of the Commission. To find out how you can get involved please send your contact information, interests, and availability to the Commission at firstname.lastname@example.com

Cisco Thursday said it will acquire privately held Cariden Technologies, a maker of network planning, design and traffic tools for telecom service providers.
Cisco will pay about $141 million in cash and retention-based incentives and, after the close of the acquisition, Cariden will become part of Cisco's Service Provider Networking Group under Shailesh Shukla, vice president and general manager, Software and Applications Group.
The company's specialty is capacity planning and management tools for IP/MPLS networks, and Cisco plans to leverage Cariden's technology in its nLight platform for IP and optical convergence, as well as for WAN orchestration. The idea, according to Cisco, is that service providers will be able to make their network infrastructure more programmable and more efficient.
"Given the widespread convergence of IP and optical networks, Cariden's technology will help carriers more efficiently manage bandwidth, network traffic and intelligence," Surya Panditi, senior vice president and general manager, Cisco Service Provider Networking Group, said in a statement. "This acquisition signals the next phase in Cisco's packet and optical convergence strategy and further strengthens our ability to lead this market transition in networking."
[Related: 12 Recent Networking and Infrastructure Deals To Keep An Eye On]
Sunnyvale, Calif.-based Cariden has a number of major partnerships in the networking space, with Cisco as well as with some of its biggest rivals, including Alcatel-Lucent and Juniper. It's been a member of Cisco's Developer Network Partner Program for a number of years and has a substantial reseller and system integrator program.
After a year of minimal M&A activity during its global restructuring, Cisco in 2012 returned to its usually frequent pace of acquisitions, most recently buying cloud-managed networking specialist Meraki for $1.2 billion. Among its acquisitions in the past six months have been NDS Group, vCider, ThinkSmart, Virtuata and Cloupia.

The Consortium of College Testing Centers (CCTC) is a free referral service provided by the National College Testing Association (NCTA) to facilitate distance learning. The purpose of the CCTC is to make test administration services available to students at educational institutions away from their campuses. These services are provided in traditional paper-pencil formats as well as by on-line, web-based servers at some sites. A test administration site does not have to provide web-based examinations in order to participate in the Consortium. All participating institutions must be NCTA members in good standing, and all participating institutions are expected to adhere to the CCTC guidelines. Listings are not available to individuals who wish to serve as proctors.

Rajah Maples is an Anchor and Reporter for KHQA.
QUINCY, ILL. -- It was beginning to look a lot like Christmas at the Crossing in Quincy this week.
The community stuffed 255 shoe boxes with toys, necessities, and school supplies, which will be shipped to children in more than 130 countries.
The Quincy area is participating in a program called, "Operation Christmas Child."
The idea is to give gifts to children who've never received them before and in the process, teach them about Christianity.
"These children are living in desperate situations, and the boxes are used as a tool to present Jesus Christ to the children," organizer Mary Shelor said.
Organizers hope to pack about 2000 shoe boxes.
They will be collecting items all this week.
For more information you can contact Mary Shelor at (217) 223-2536 or log onto samaritanspurse.org.

I agree, I spent some time in a right to work state, where the employees had almost no rights, it was pretty bad, they could and would fire people over liking the "wrong" sports team and things like that and they did not even have to give a reason for firing the employee.Hire you on at one wage then change it, if you dont like it quit, no other recourse. I am certainly no fan of unions, but a happy medium is needed.
Why do most right to work states have a lower unemployment rate than the People's Republic Of Kalifornia.

Easy to clean - with the high pressure nozzle on the garden hose - and let it sit in the sun until dry.

Looks like both are large enough to work with 1000 & 2000 series chocolate molds. It appears that the Bakon is all stainless steel while the Mol d'Art is plastic and stainless steel. Wondering if this really matters for a piece of equipment with no moving parts. So is one piece of equipment more reliable than the other? Easier to operate? The Bakon costs a bit more than the Mol d'Art is the extra expense worth it?
Posted 26 April 2012 - 10:26 AM
Plastic body: I cover it with saran wrap before use, to make cleanup quicker. I've had it for 5 months, the plastic looks just like on the blessed day when it arrived in my mail. :-) I've had the 3kg melter for 2 years, still looks and works like new.
Another advantage for me is that it's lightweight. I can move it from counter to kitchen cabinet with minimal effort.
I haven't used the Bakon, but I can say I'd buy another Mol d'Art in a heartbeat.

Couple of thoughts - I love the light weight nature of the mold'arts. If you want to have dark and milk in temper at the same time the temperatures are going to be different so you kind of lose the advantage of the split tray. Also I wonder if the middle of the hotel pans suffers from getting cool because it's not up against the heater.
But it also comes down to cost - if I were able to pick up one of the big ones inexpensively - I'd still be snatching it up!

I've had some serious issues with "other" plastic melters.
Posted 26 April 2012 - 03:11 PM
Our local C.C. uses them, and when I went to the Calebaut Workshop in Montreal last year they had about 12 of them--one for each variety of couverture. Derrick said they had them for about two years and had no isues with them at all.
The ones I have serious issues with is the Martelatto brand--two units and each melted down into a stinking puddle of plastic and burnt chocolate.....
Posted 27 April 2012 - 07:52 PM
Good luck with your decision!!!
Posted 27 April 2012 - 08:54 PM
Patti, I thought you had a wheel temperer at the conference, not a melter (the melter still has a dial control). Good to hear that you have had success with the company. I have see the positive references on The Chocolate Life site and I think they organized a group buy of some other Bakon equipment.
Tough decision for me, the Bakon looks interesting but so many people on eGullet and the pastry circuit have positive experiences with Mol d'Art. Will ponder this one for a bit longer. Thank for all the feedback!

Puzzle platformers are a bit of a staple of independent games. Since Braid saw critical and commercial success in 2008, the genre has almost become saturated, and while each game may explore its own new ideas in various ways, it has become increasingly difficult to care about them on the level they deserve.
Vessel focuses on fluid dynamics as its central idea. Like any good puzzle platformer should, it constantly does something new with that idea, making for a densely packed game with little filler content. As a physics-based puzzle game, it suffers from a few pitfalls that keep it from being truly great, but Vessel is still a very good game and certainly worth the time and money spent on it.

What Has Possessed Me?!?
Bonus Triangles. That's what!
I have a huge box of bonus triangles to trim up...and I've put it off and put it off, but you know how it goes...eventually they niggle at me enough that I have to put them into something.
I spent yesterday afternoon with the Lifetime Movie Network on "True Story Thursday" and squared, de-dog-earred, pressed, and started piecing this border together. It's what I call an "EXTREME" border, but I am loving how it is going to turn out.
The hard part? I'm not sure how it's going to turn the corners....I'm just going on it and I figure I'll deal with it when I get there. Maybe not the smartest move, but there you have it. I'll piece it longer that the quilt center, and then figure what I need to do as far as spacer border to build up the quilt center to make my pieced border fit. Sound insane? probably.
The issue is...it's an on point quilt center (Can't show it to you yet! It's for next book! Nanananana!) SO to get the math right, I figured out that the border needs to be an on-point setting too, as this is. So...we will see how it works out!
I'm wishing I had been leader/endering this all along! AND...I am hoping it really helps deplete all these bonus squares that have added up over various projects (not to mention being gifted to me by students who didn't want to be bothered with them LOL!)
It is absolutely BEAUTIFUL outside. This afternoon I'd really like to take one of the dogs down to Salem Lake and walk/jog/hike the trails around the lake. I'm thinking it will be even busier down there tomorrow with everyone wanting to catch some rays and air, and I leave early Sunday morning for Michigan, so it's today or bust....
24 comments:
Wow -- great border and great use of left over triangles. When you said you're not sure how you will go around the corner. It made me think of the marching bands turning the corner at the Rose Parade. Some do it with an anchor person but others do it by some stopping earlier than others. So, think of way 2, but what would happen if you had every other row of triangles going sideways? Easy to think hard to describe. First row would face same as side border, second face top border, third would face side. Maybe that describes it better. Have fun with it.
ReplyDeleteBonnie - for those of us who want to get started EARLY on this VERY BEAUTIFUL POSSESSED BORDER would you be able to tell us the SIZE that you squared these to? I have a ton of them and just might get started squaring them up for my FUTURE OBSESSION!!!

dotTech Exclusive: Free Paragon System Backup 9.5 (unlimited licenses – free for everyone) and Paragon Backup & Recovery 10 Suite (30 licenses only)!
May 15, 2010 116 Email article | Print articleOnce again dotTech is teaming up with Paragon Software to bring dotTechies some goodies; this time around, however, we actually have two goodies instead of just one. What do I mean exactly? What I mean is free giveaways of Paragon System Backup 9.5 (System Backup 9.5 is the exact same as System Backup 2010 [$29.95 value] except System Backup 9.5 does not have WinPE recovery media while System Backup 2010 does) and Paragon Backup & Recovery 10 Suite [$69.95 value]!
Since this promotion involves the giving away of two different software, I will address each software individually, System Backup 9.5 first then Backup & Recovery 10 Suite.
Giveaway of Paragon System Backup 9.5 (Unlimited Licenses, Free For Everyone)
As I already mentioned, Paragon System Backup 9.5 is the exact same software as Paragon System Backup 2010, except System Backup 9.5 does not come with WinPE recovery media while System Backup 2010 does (System Backup 9.5 still has the Linux based recovery media, though). So, then the question is, what exactly is Paragon System Backup? As described by me in dotTech's full review on Paragon System Backup 2010…
Paragon System Backup is a snapshot backup software. What exactly is a snapshot backup software? Think of a snapshot backup software as a mesh between Windows System Restore and your favorite image backup software. Therefore, a snapshot backup software is, more or less, a software that takes regular "snapshots" (image backups) of your computer, and allows you to restore your computer to any snapshot, similar to how you restore your computer to a "restore point" with Windows System Restore.
Here is the a list of the key features of System Backup as per the developer:
(Click on image to view list in full size.)
If you want to learn about System Backup in more detail, you can read dotTech's full review or visit System Backup's homepage. However, when reading up on System Backup features, note that System Backup was just recently updated; new features have been added and improvements made (System Backup 9.5 includes all these new features and improvements) such as Advanced Backup Strategy Configuration (gives you more control over program parameters), Precise Scheduling (gives you more control over how to schedule automatic backups), Adjust Backup Process Priority (CPU processing priority is more intelligently controlled by the software for automatic backups so as to not burden your computer as much when creating snapshots), and Backup Object Selection (you can now select specific partitions/volumes to backup instead of being forced to backup whole computer). In fact the update is so recent System Backup's homepage has not yet been updated to reflect the new features. Think of dotTech as being honored by Paragon Software in the form of being provided the latest version of a software, even when Paragon's own website has not been updated to reflect the new changes yet.
That said, I am sure everyone wants me to shut-up and just spill the beans on how to get Paragon System Backup 9.5 for free. Well, wait no longer – read on to learn how you can get Paragon System Backup 9.5 for free:

- 20 licenses can be won by anyone.
- I reserve the right to award specific people licenses if I feel they have helped foster the dotTech community by being very active (the people who fall into this category is at my sole discretion).
- You may only enter once and only win one license. Anyone that tries to enter more than once will be disqualified.
- By entering this drawing, you give me the right to pass on your e-mail to Paragon Software (they will be the ones distributing the licenses).
When posting a comment, please make sure you enter an e-mail that is 100% valid and an e-mail you will check because the licenses will be distributed via e-mail by me. If you win and don't have a valid e-mail or an e-mail you don't check, your license will go to waste. However, please don't post your e-mail in your comment! You should never post your e-mail on a public form. Just enter the e-mail you want to be contacted at in the "E-mail" field when writing your comment – I will be able to get your e-mail from there.

The winners of this giveaway will be announced after the giveaway has ended in 72 hours, or on Tuesday May 18, 2010.
Good luck to everyone!

Boy, did I have a problem with this one. I opened it to see what it was like. When I saw the message would take 18 hours tried to stop it. It said to get out of it to press Escape key or control plus C. I tried both and it just sat there. So I powered down as could not restart. Anyway, I had to end up doing a recovery. Took me from Saturday at midnight to Sunday evening at 4 PM. HP really messed me up and I will write a letter to CEO soon as I can.
I have Vista Home Premium SP 2.
101Hello, here are my answers:
1. Personal files, work files, school files and documents
2. My favourite feature is automatic snapshots
3. I think it's a very good program, only needs speed up a bit
4. I think $25 is a fair price, $5 less and it will be a great offer102Thank you for giving us a chance to get free the Paragon backup and recovery suite.
I want to participate. Here are my answers:
1. C drive backup ( containing Windows and Program files )
2. The simplicity of the layout.
3. big download size and slower speed .
4. I think $25 is a fair price.103@Anna Ruth: First, they were just foolin' with respect to the 18 hours. Initially, the program thinks for a bit and while it does, it calculates absurd times for the backup/restore.
It also seems odd that you'd have this problem while backing up, it will only overwrite your mbr/system (which was your problem) when it is restoring.
Bottom-line: (With all due respect), it was your stupidity that caused the problem.
The winners of this giveaway will be announced after the giveaway has ended in 72 hours, or on Tuesday May 18, 2010.No winners? :-)
107I can't believe: I am one of the winners:
I have received an email (with the registration datas) from Paragon a four hours ago. I am very happy. Thank you very much, for this great giveaway. :-)
Best regards, Christoph108@Anna Ruth:
Maybe next time try ctrl-shift-esc to bring up the Vista Task Manager. And go off and do something else for 15 minutes to give Vista time bring the Task Manager up, and terminate the process from there.
Having said that, my husband insisted on Vista for his laptop, and often task manager is out to lunch and stays out to lunch. It drives me nuts – I'm the maintanence person.
Bad luck on having to restore.
109Good to know that winners have been chosen however no announcement has been made. Ashraf if it is show then please publish the winners.
Thanks.110Too bad. That means i haven´t won anything. :-(
Maybe next time.111OMG. Just checked my mails. Yeah, i´ve won a free license. Thanks so much. :-)
112Oh! That mean I am not the winner. :-(
Anyways thanks Ashraf and dottech for the opportuity.113Wow!
My humble thanks to Ashraf – and to Paragon for this opportunity.
This is really a top class site.114Hello, here is my reply:
1. ALL FILES, Mostlu Personal files, work files, email and documents
2. My favourite feature is automation
3. I think it's a very good program, only needs to be faster
4. I think $25 is a fair price, $5-10less is better. Free is best.115Registration page says offer is over; however, you can still download the software and install it O.K. if you happened to have gotten a valid registration key previously and kept it. I have this funny feeling that if I say anything more about that, then such a message would be considered as out-of-bounds, so I'll just stop and ask if anybody else has any suggestions to help someone who does not have a time machine to get key.

ENLACES: Creating Leaders Through Art. Fundacion Calicanto's program works with children in social risk (from 7 to 12 years old) who live in the Historic District and its surrounding poor neighborhoods. With school journeys of just half a day, the kids spend a lot of unsupervised time in the street, exposed to violence and gangs. ENLACES is a program that uses contemporary dance as a tool for change; along with theater and art workshops, academic tutoring, and psychological support.
The children live in neighborhoods that are among the poorest and most violent in Panama, often combined with difficult situations at home of physical/verbal abuse, absent and overwhelmed parents. Due to overcrowding, schools work on half-day turns. This leaves children with a large amount of unsupervised, unproductive time. All combined with the lack of after school activities creates a void which is too often filled with television in the best cases, or exploited by gangs in the worst ones.
Under the conditions that these kids live, after school activities are a critical stabilizing influence. ENLACES provides a tool for change through professional dance and theater instruction along with a values-based education experience. The daily routine provides stability in their lives; all combined with psychological support, makes the children feel that they belong to a group and gives them the tools needed to cope with their environment and to become positive leaders.
To date ENLACES works with 35 children ages 7-12; they are currently working on the first phase of the program where we teach them how to understand their bodies through technique and corporal expression. The second phase works with them through their teen years, developing their abilities as artistic creators and letting them see the range of possibilities in the arts sector as adults.
Total Funding Received to Date: $6,431 Remaining Goal to be Funded: $16,569 Total Funding Goal: $23,000

Canadian Lobster Po-Boy
Posted 24 May 2008 - 02:23 PM
I went out to Albertson's and had them steam two of them with Tony Chachere's seasoning. They were a little over a pound each and the both of them cost 36 dollars at 15 per pound. Very pricy, I shook my head but smiled when I finished extracting the meat and saw how little was in the bowl. I noticed on the rubber bands that held the claws the words "Wild" and "Canada". I found it very easy to peel, almost exactly like a large crawfish. I used a heavy knife to crack the claws.
The standard Maine Lobster Roll recipe calls for diced cucumber, green onion and fresh taragon, mayo (I used blue plate) salt (didn't really require it) and cracked pepper. This is placed on a sort of hot dog bun that you toast in a skillet with butter, but I decided to use french bread.
I thought I would share with you guys my not so great pictures of a 20 dollar po-boy. I have to say it was very good, a bit better than the taste of crawfish but not that dissimilar. The salad recipe had a nice flavor and I'd like to experiment but at that price it probably wont happen.

I love lobster rolls but make them with lobster, mayo, salt and pepper only! I don't want anything to detract from the taste of the lobster.
I can definitely see where you're coming from, I was sort of thinking that the cucumber and green onion had a strong taste when I was eating it. I didn't really detect the taragon.
If I ever do it again I may cut way back on the cucumber and green onion, and possibly try a different mayo. Blue Plate is my favorite consumer brand but I've had some Japanese mayo that was really good.
I may also want to try a different bread.

I love the looks of your toasted bun. I didn't realize Maine lobster rolls were usually on toasted buns (the only ones I've had have been on untoasted buns). Toasting makes everything better! (as does frying)

.....I went out to Albertson's.........
Your first mistake.
I lived in BR for a few years and can say without prejudice that Albertson's is not a very good place to get seafood from either a value or quality standpoint. I understand what you were shooting for here flavor wise, but considering your proximity to great local seafood wouldn't a trip to Joey's for some crawfish had been a better use of your time and money?

I'll go dig up a pic.

Vinonola and HungryC : I'm very aware of the local crawfish in my area, but my idea was to do lobster. A friend, also a cook, raves about lobster all the time and I haven't really had a lot of experience with it.
I also have had a few bad experiences with Albertson's seafood, but the main reason I went is because they were live and they steam them for you in 10 minutes. I really don't see it as a mistake because the lobster meat was very good, much better tasting than crawfish in my opinion, but still not worth the money. My main goal was to satisfy my curiosity.
TAPrice : I may do it again for a special occasion, especially if I could find a source of live lobster for significantly less than what I paid.
CaliPoutine : I thought the meat tasted great, much better than the "Maine" lobster I've had in restaurants. Personally I would suspect the fact that yours was frozen had something to do with it.

I don''t get the lobster thing. Maybe because growing up in southeast Louisiana has spoiled me for really good seafood. I like OUR oysters and shrimp better than any others and I will take a crawfish boil over a lobster dinner any day.

Yes, they're the same. There was a bit of a discussion on this topic: Lobster Prices Tank. Some say cold nutrient-rich seawater makes for a better lobster. The Northumberland Strait (which separates Prince Edward Island from Nova Scotia and New Brunswick) has the warmest waters north of the Carolinas. Good for swimming, not so good for lobsters.Aren't Canadian and Maine lobsters the same (Homarus americanus)? What specifically makes them different?

BP Comment Quick Links
January 3, 2013 Prospect ProfileThree Late-Inning RelieversRelievers are a fickle species; every year, many relievers come out of nowhere to make an impact at the major-league level. There doesn't seem to be a clear formula for short-term success as a big-league reliever, but there are combinations that can be lethal in short doses, and right now the minor leagues house multiple arms that could impact a game near you in 2013. Today, we'll look at three of them. Marcus Stroman, Toronto Blue Jays Stroman was used as a starter at Duke, but the Blue Jays used him exclusively as a reliever after they nabbed him with the 22nd overall pick in last June's draft. There has never been a successful 5'9" starter in the major leagues, so Stroman as a starter would be unprecedented. He also struggled to hold his velocity as a starter, and so the move makes sense. Personally, I look at a guy with three weapons and a feel for pitching, which would have been enough for me to give him a chance as a starter before relegating him to a relief role, but Toronto has taken the road that most would have given Stroman's issues. People know that Stroman tested positive for a banned substance, but in 2013 he should provide additional reasons to remember his name. He's going to be an impact, late-inning reliever. Jake Diekman, Philadelphia Phillies Jake Diekman has a sexy package of tools, but here's my favorite fact about him: he was a 30th round pick out of Cloud County Community College in Concordia, Kansas. (Sorry, alliteraphobes. Next time, I'll bold my alliteration so you skip it over.) I don't know if alliteraphobia is actually a thing or not, but alliteration is only one reason to fear Diekman. He isn't perfect, but he misses a ton of bats and also has what it takes to be an impact, late-inning reliever.

CHARLESTON, W.Va. -- Longtime West Virginia Adjutant General Allen Tackett was sworn in as a member of the Central West Virginia Airport Authority Wednesday.
And the longest serving adjutant general in West Virginia's history believes he brings a lot to the airport authority's table.
Tackett says his experience working with state leaders in Washington, as well as local officials will greatly benefit the airport authority.
Tackett pointed out that he has worked well with Sen. Jay Rockefeller as well as Congresswoman Shelley Moore Capito and Congressman Nick Joe Rahall on a variety of issues in the past.
"When we need political help, or federal dollars, I know how to make that happen," Tackett said.
Tackett was instrumental in keeping the Air National Guard's Charleston-based 130th Airlift Wing base at Yeager Airport open in 2005, Kanawha Commission President Kent Carper said.
"He (Tackett) saved the guard at the airport," Carper said.
Tackett is the Kanawha County Commission's appointee to the airport authority board. He is serving out the remainder of Harold Carter's term.
Carter left the board because of poor health. His term would have expired in 2019.
Tackett was also instrumental in rebuilding the air base at Yeager Airport, he said. He believes this construction background is another benefit to the board.
Yeager Airport Director Rick Atkinson agreed, saying Tackett's construction management background would be an asset.
The board members will also prize Tackett's experience leading the state's National Guard units, Atkinson said.
"And he just knows quite a bit about the operation of the airport," he said.
"He's very well respected by our delegation in Washington and our state leaders," Atkinson said. "I just think he's a tremendous asset to have on our board."

Archived - MobileMe: Backup intended for backing up files in your Home folder, but not your entire startup disk
The Backup application, included with a MobileMe subscription, can be used to back up your important files. However, it is not intended to back up startup disks, Mac OS X installations, or your entire hard drive.
What kinds of backups is Backup intended for?
Backup is designed to back up personal data and settings that are in your Home folder, such as items on your desktop, preferences, iPhoto pictures, iTunes songs, your movies, and so forth. In other words, files you "own".
External disk or other (non-bootable) partition
You can use Backup to back up files you own that are on an external disk or other disk partition as long as the disk is not bootable (you can't start from it, that is). With Backup 3.2, this is determined by whether or not the hard drive has a /System folder at it's root level. Note that you must have permissions to the files you want to use Backup with. You can configure an entire volume (except your Mac OS X volume) to ignore permissions if you wish.
What kinds of backups is Backup not intended for?
Entire startup disk
Backup is not intended to back up applications or system files (files in /Applications, /System, /Library, and so forth), or your entire hard drive, because it runs with the same file permissions as the currently logged-in user. Not all files outside of a user's Home may be accessible. Similarly, Backup is not intended to back up a bootable Boot Camp partition.
Backing up items outside of your Home folder may appear to work, but the backup may not be successfully restored using Backup. If you want to check for specific files that may not have been backed up, check the backup.log file (open Console or System Profiler in /Applications/Utilties/ and click Logs).
A backup of your entire startup volume made with MobileMe Backup may not successfully back up, or may not be usable after restoring it.
Files in other user's Home folders
Because Backup runs with the same file permissions as the currently logged-in user, you can't use it for backup up files in other user account's Home folders even if they are on the same computer. Log in as the other user before using Backup.
Additional Information
With Mac OS X 10.5 Leopard or later, you can use use TimeMachine to back up your entire hard disk.

The Power of the Word
Poetry and Prayer: Continuities and Discontinuities
29-30 June 2012
An international conference organized jointly by the Institute of English Studies and Heythrop College, University of London.
Venue: Senate House, University of London
"Prayer is the little implement Through which Men reach Where Presence—is denied them", Emily Dickinson
The analogy and continuity between poetry and prayer, the poetical and the mystical, has often been discussed. T he psychological mechanism used by grace to raise us to prayer is, Henry Bremond wrote, the same as that set in motion in poetic experience. Both poetry and prayer are rooted in an inner experience of concrete and fundamental values so that both invite, using the language of John Henry Newman, a real rather than a notional assent. Reading a poem can be perceived as a prayerful experience. W.H. Auden wrote: 'to pray is to pay attention to something or someone other than oneself. Whenever a man so concentrates his attention – on a landscape, a poem, a geometrical problem, an idol, or the True God – that he completely forgets his own ego and desires, he is praying.'
And yet it is also true that we have no shared understanding of the terms 'prayer' and 'poetry'. Some might claim that there is no connection between them. The traditions of poetry and prayer are numerous and the connections between them elusive. And poetry is, self-evidently, not exactly the same as prayer.
The conference will consider the similarities, interrelatedness and differences between poetry and prayer. What do poetry and prayer share? How do they differ? In what ways do they relate to each other? Theoretical reflections and historical surveys will provide a context for the discussion of individual texts and authors from different countries and cultural and religious traditions.
