Moo's body was discovered inside Met's apartment on March 31, 2008.
Esar Met faces capital murder charges after the seven year old girl was found beaten, raped and strangled in the apartment where Met was staying.
Moo's body was found after a massive search. Her body which was found in the shower of the basement, about 50 yards from where her parents were living.
After more than four years, Met and his team of lawyers finally heard the evidence against him last week.
Preliminary hearings normally happen within months of charges being filed, but both Met and the victim's family speak Burmese or Karin, a dialect in Burma. Certified translators were hard to find.
During the preliminary hearing, Met's translator said the 25-year-old is confused.
Met's competency came into question over the past four years, adding to more delays.
Moo's parents want Met to get a death sentence if convicted.
Met was scheduled to be arraigned on December 7th.

Survey of Energy Resources 2007
Hydropower Country Notes
Sweden has one of the highest hydro potentials in Western Europe: the Swedish WEC Member Committee reports a gross theoretical capability of 130 TWh/yr, of which 85 TWh is economically exploitable. The average annual capability of the 16 100 MW hydro capacity installed at the end of 2005 was 65 TWh, about 76% of the economic potential. Actual hydro output in 2005 was 72 TWh, which provided nearly half of Sweden's electricity generation. The construction of new hydro plants has virtually stopped, on account of environmental and political considerations. Future activity is likely to be very largely confined to the modernisation and refurbishment of existing capacity.
There is 985 MW of small-scale hydro capacity installed, which generated a total of 3.8 TWh in 2005.

Delta Works
The world's largest water-battling structure isn't a dam—it's a network. More than 10,000 miles of levees, dikes and dams combine to protect the Netherlands from the North Sea. The project took half a century to build, but climate-induced sea-level rise means that Dutch engineers will forever be upgrading Delta Works to keep the country dry.

After all of the CES news I've gotten interested in the idea of 3D. Does XBMC currently support playing 3D movies? If not is there any plans for it in the future?
From my understanding what I can see it looks like your tv would need to support 120hz. I guess that means XBMC would also have to output 120hz.
3DTV Support - Play "3D" Movies in XBMC plus have GUI / OSD and subtitles just work?

you would also need support for the media holding the video, and i believe this means only bluray for now. so we'll have to wait for xbmc to support that natively at the very minimum.

If you can rip the content, then you should be able to play it right? Well... maybe? I haven't really taken a look at the format proposed for 3D content yet, other than I thought it was likely to be limited to bluray (i.e., no DVD versions). XBMC doesn't have support for the bluray menu structure, nor does any open source or free software player yet, but xbmc can play the native m2ts video streams which are encoded with h.264 or VC-1. To achieve 3D, I assume (careful there!) you'd either have to decode two simultaneous streams of the current bluray format, or decode a stream of double the framerate (obviously with alternative L/R frames). I'm guessing it's the latter? So I suppose the question is whether xbmc can decode a 48 or 60 fps h.264 or VC-1 stream? I don't know if those framerates were part of the original bluray spec capabilities and if they were the limits of the original codecs, or if they are extensions and thus perhaps less likely to be supported by xbmc. And then there is the question of whether the hdcp and HDMI paths in today's pc videocards would properly handle and pass a stream of double the framerate. |

I guess 3D capabilities will very much depend on the 3D technology. There are currently way too many different ways to display 3D content to just say yes or no. One factor is surely how much is handled by the display itself and how the display will know if the content is supposed to be 3D. If - for example - the display automatically switches to 3D mode for ~60fps files and takes care of the shutter glasses sync (if needed) then XBMC is probably capable of doing it. If XBMC needs to set a specific output mode to enable 3D or even do the timing of the shutter glasses then this would need additional code inside XBMC. Since the whole technology is still very very young I wouldn't expect anything in the near future. First, there needs to be some 3D content (unencrypted blu-ray video data or some mkv/mp4 container). Then the XBMC developers would need some 3D playback device (display). And then there is a chance for some 3D specific XBMC code. Since 3D displays are probably very expensive when they come out it will easily take months or years until XBMC devs have the hardware to test and implement any 3D playback.

You could always checkout the Nvidia 3d vision stuff.
As far as I know it doesn't require the content to be 3d in the first place, so anything you play gets the 3d treatment (i think!) http://www.nvidia.com/object/3D_Vision_Main.html |

The IZ3D player is open source and could be used as referens. I dont think it includes the output part as they use there own driver. it´s based on media player classic. I would realy like the funktionality of stereoscopic player

I was able to play some demo videos that were side by side but not FHD3D. I've tried to get X11 to use a FHD3D resolution but without luck. It may be that the 9400M on my MacMini doesn't have enough RAM.
The clips used to be available at http://3dguy.tv/downloads/side-by-side/ but it looks like they are all dead links now. At least with my TV (Panasonic VT25) it looks like XBMC just needs to switch into a compatible resolution, like 1920x2160 or 3840x1080 and the TV will auto switch into 3D mode. Of course the overlay menus would need to be mirrored. |

The trouble with XBMC supporting 3d is that the current 3DTV standard proposed relies on shutter glasses. One lens goes black while the other is transparent. Then they switch. This happens 60, 75, 90, 110 or 120 times a second (depending on manufacturer and model), so it's not noticeable... as long as the video stays synced. The glasses fall out of sync often, and different systems running XBMC will have variable frame-rates (that's unavoidable using non-standard hardware like a PC). Sony and others use an IR receiver to let the glasses know when to change based on the frame currently shown. When the glasses are out of sync, they pause and wait for the next frame before continuing. Since this happens so fast, you don't notice it. But unless XBMC can interface with that IR hardware and send signals to the glasses, or receive them and drop a frame (depending on who's 3D system you're using) the glasses/frames won't resync on their own. This creates a strobing effect, makes the picture look dimmer..brighter..dimmer, flickering like a candle, and gives most people headaches. Complicating matters, most do not simply alternate at a fixed interval, it's based on the perceived motion on the screen, screen color etc. Different glasses work at different frequencies. The proposed 3D standard only applies to how the video is encoded and how the discs are made. The sync system in the glasses is not standard, determined solely by the manufacturer of the glasses. XBMC would have to support many different standards which aren't open to independent developers. No one like reverse engineering a hundred different pieces of expensive proprietary hardware, risking patent infringement. They would need to find one manufacturer to support, who in turn would have to be willing to support them. If someone really wanted to pursue this, it would be worth talking to manufacturers first.
It's worth holding off on 3D support for now. There are several reasons. First, there isn't really an accepted standard in Home 3D now. People seem to be getting behind Sony now, they're the top contender, but it requires licensing fees to be paid to them for both the method of converting video from 2 perspectives into something that plays on a 3D TV, and licensing on the actual blu-ray 3D disc. Their format also relies on active shutter glasses. There are a few other technologies emerging. One using parallax projection (like you see in the movie theaters) that sends polarized light to different eyes through polarized lenses. The 3D glasses are cheap ($5.00 instead of $200+), and require no sensors or batteries, are lighter, and can be made more comfortable (like sunglasses instead of a head-strapped windshield). If you wear eye-glasses, they can even be made in your prescription so you aren't wearing one pair over the other. Another option is a lenticular screen. Rather than being smooth, the pixels on the screen are arranged in small pyramids, with each side projecting a slightly different image. If you've ever seen the 3D baseball cards, it's similar. The perspective changes as you move around it. Tilting your head lets you see around foreground objects. The tech ins't totally there yet, but they do look awesome, and the manufacture cost is much lower. This requires no glasses. Last, and more importantly, there are several groups using parallax (the differential between what the left and right eye see) images in current 3D movies of other formats and creating a depth map (Z-Axis interpolation). The video is then reencoded in real-time at 60fps from a combination of the two images based on your position in the room (by using head tracking). This only works for a single viewer, multiple people can't watch the same movie in 3D mode at the same time since the perspective is set based on the location of one person. The advantage is it looks better than any of the others, and requires only a cheap webcam to track your position. This is being created as a 3D codec that will be easy to implement in software packages like XBMC and requires only cheap hardware most people already have. The file size once encoded is 25% smaller than the best compression you can get on 2 video streams. Given the ease of entry and smaller file sizes, I think this is what's going to win out in file sharing and torrent sites, which quite frankly makes up most the common XBMC user's library. This is still in the early stages of development, and I should warn, the GPU usage is through the roof, about 4 times what's needed for 1080p playback. Even then it's a bit choppy on all but the optimized demos. Still, it's coming and is worthy of consideration. In the end, I think we'll see a hybrid of 2 or more of these technologies. The trouble with glasses is that you can't choose what to focus on, things fade in and out based on the camera focus, not your eye. Minimizing the distance of cameras when filming eliminates that blur on the edges, but also reduces the illusion of depth. Combining that with head tracking and 5-6 video channels instead of 2 creates the only life-like 3D video I've ever seen. When you've demoed good 3D packages, you quickly realize that thing like "Avatar" are poorly implemented gimmicks, and not good enough for your money. With several competitors with different technologies coming to the marketplace over the next 2-3 years, I think you'll see a new format war. Early adopters will probably get a good 5-10 years before having any incentive to change hardware, but with so many new technologies on the horizon from competing parties, I wouldn't invest too much in this. Here's a clip about head tracking from a few years ago most of you 3D buffs have probably seen already: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Jd3-eiid-...r_embedded Now incorporate that type of technology with a better head tracking device, similar to Xbox Kinnect (project Natal). Now you get the same effect in games without any awkward headgear. Now imagine that processing power is used for real-time rendering of an animated movie. A next-gen console should have little problem with that. Non-animated movies would have to be shot from at least 5 angles, probably necessitating an new disc media, but similar effects can be achieved using the additional perspectives and Z-Axis interpolation. Add to that parallax display from a lenticular screen and you have something incredible. This is where we're headed. There are patents being filed by Sony, MS, and several major movie studios. Once they work that out, all hell will break loose with another format war, and the end product won't resemble 3D as we know it today. The next major breakthrough will be in gaming, since frames are generated at variable perspectives on the fly, rather than fixed to the position of a camera when filming. Keep an Eye on Microsoft's Kinnect and nVidia's 3D vision. The technologies are very compatible, and the two companies work closely on many projects. Sony will follow suit with something very comparable, based on the Current 3DTV standard they're pushing and their Playstation. You'll see the real momentum building with the next game console release from either company. Movies will catch-up shortly after.

WILKESBORO, N.C. (February 7, 2012) — This Sunday, the Staples Center in Los Angeles becomes the focal point of the entertainment world, when music's top artists are celebrated at the 54th Annual GRAMMY© Awards. Several of the artists nominated for these prestigious awards will grace the stages of MerleFest 25 this spring, continuing a twenty-five year tradition of bringing music's most talented performers to Wilkesboro, N.C., for one of the country's premier music festivals. MerleFest 25, presented by Lowe's and slated for April 26-29, is an annual homecoming of musicians and music fans, gathering to celebrate the memory of musician Eddy Merle Watson, beloved son of American music icon Doc Watson - who himself is the recipient of seven Grammys. Doc will share the MerleFest stages with the following 2011 Grammy nominees: Bela Fleck & The Flecktones, the Original Lineup (nominated for ¨DBest Instrumental Compositionˇ¬), Vince Gill (nominated for ¨DBest Country Songˇ¬), Alison Krauss & Union Station featuring Jerry Douglas (nominated for ¨DBest Bluegrass Albumˇ¬), Jim Lauderdale (nominated for ¨DBest Bluegrass Albumˇ¬), Steep Canyon Rangers (nominated for ¨DBest Bluegrass Albumˇ¬), Tedeschi Trucks Band (nominated for ¨DBest Blues Albumˇ¬) and artist Chris Thile, performing with the Punch Brothers at MerleFest 25 (nominated for ¨DBest Bluegrass Albumˇ¬). Of course, MerleFest 25 boasts the talents of many artists who have already received that most prestigious of music awards. Besides Fleck (12-time Grammy recipient), Gill (15-time Grammy recipient), Lauderdale (three-time Grammy recipient), Tedeschi Trucks Band and Thile (two-time Grammy recipient), other Grammy honorees include Sam Bush (three-time Grammy recipient), John Hammond, David Holt (four-time Grammy recipient), Jerry Douglas (12-time Grammy recipient), Los Lobos (three-time Grammy recipient), Nashville Bluegrass Band (six-time Grammy recipient), Tony Rice, Peter Rowan, Marty Stuart (five-time Grammy recipient) and dobroist Tut Taylor. Of special note in Grammy history is MerleFest 25 performer Alison Krauss, whose 26 prior wins makes her the most awarded female artist in Grammy history. In addition to its stellar roster of Grammy-nominated performers, MerleFest has also become known for spontaneous moments, collaborations and last-minute performance additions. To keep up with any additional changes and additions to this year's lineup – even during the festival – MerleFest encourages fans to sign up for the e-newsletter and to follow the festival through Facebook and Twitter. Links are available at www.merlefest.org. Ticket purchases for MerleFest 25 can be made on the web at www.merlefest.org or by calling 1-800-343-7857. An early bird ticket discount is available through March 12, 2012. With over 90 artists performing on 14 stages during the course of the event, MerleFest 25 is an excellent entertainment value. A complete list of confirmed performers is available at www.merlefest.org. MerleFest, considered one of the premier music festivals in the country, is held on the campus of Wilkes Community College in Wilkesboro, North Carolina. MerleFest was founded in 1988 in memory of Eddy Merle Watson and is a celebration of what Doc Watson calls ¨Dtraditional plusˇ¬ music, meaning the traditional music of the Appalachian regional plus whatever other styles we were in the mood to play.ˇ¬ The annual festival has become the primary fundraiser for the WCC Endowment Corporation, funding scholarships, capital projects and other educational needs.

I have been reading your
I have been reading your answered in this forum and so many things do not make sense to me. I am not sure if you work for Honda or Honda Fan or a Mechanic. 2008 Honda Civic has an EPA Rating 40/45, does Honda manual tell you to do the following like you have suggested to improve the mileage, Install and use an engine block heater, In colder days block your front grille, Always compute your mileage by hand. The HCH display typically underestimates the MPG. The Prius almost always overestimates the MPG. Raise your tire pressure to 40 PSI in the front and 38 in the rear. Avoid any fuel with ethanol. Don't drive like grandma. All your suggestions do not make sense. You are expecting the owner to do all your suggestions after spending money to buy the Civic Hybrid. If you are the Honda Salesman, no way you sell the Civic Hybrid if you are suggesting your ideas.
Do not be wrong, I have 2004 Honda Accord EX with 200K miles with no problem, traded with 2012 Prius. I also have 2007 Acura MDX, no problem. I get 53-56 MPG on my Prius which higher than the EPA rating. I even calculated manually and only 2 MPG different. I did not do any thing like you have suggested to the Honda Hybrid owners to my Prius to obtain the above gas mileage.
I agreed with you if you increase the tire pressure to 40 PSI and driving in warmer states, the gas mileage will be better. If you live east coast, the Prius will have less MPG during the winter time. I do not blame soniamichael1 to get very upset with the MPG by getting 32.5 MPG for 40/45 MPG. I will be upset too.
If you live in California, I would like to drive with you in your Honda Civic Hybrid and I want to see if you can get the MPG like the Prius without out non sense modifications. BTW, I still get 50-51 MPG with the A/C on my Prius.
Ships with both mast-mounted
Ships with both mast-mounted sails and steam engines were an early form of hybrid vehicle. Another example is the diesel-electric submarine. This runs on batteries when submerged and the batteries can be re-charged by the diesel engine when the craft is on the surface.

I have a 2012 civic Hybrid and it gets 43-45 mpg consistently just like the sticker says. In fact, if I really drive it carefully I can get 49mpg. I've tested the mpg over numerous tanks of gas. It seems to work well. It is a nice because it looks and drives like a normal car unlike the Prius, which gets great fuel economy but drives more sluggish and looks more bubbly.

I used to have a car that gave me 10-15 mpg. When I just bought my 2008 HHC and read it will give me 40-45 mpg I thought to myself: "That's unbelievable. As all advertisements. If it can only give me 30-35 I will be more than satisfied".
Well that's what happened. I know there should be good improvements or recommendations to save more gas but I really don't care. I love my car!

George Formby at last !!
By a customer from Dunfermline , 23 May 2007[Highly rated reviewer]
Its been a long time coming but George Formby has finally arrived on dvd, and its been worth the wait.
No extras but thats to be expected for a source of its age. But what the discs do provide are a couple of hours of innocent fun with some catchy songs that you'll be singing long after.
Fingers crossed that the other movies, this being volume 1, are released soon.

(16)Turned out Nice Again/Spare a Copper
By a customer from UK , 27 Oct 2010Each film is an hour and a quarter of time travelling joy. Light hearted and well played, George Formby sparkles with his down to earth demeanour, cheeky songs and silly slapstick. Just leave your modern sensibilities behind, open your heart and let these films wash over you!- Was this review helpful to you?

George Formby Collection.
By a customer from Luton , 27 May 2010I have been a fan of George for as long as I can remember. He still makes me laugh, as unlike modern comedians, he didn't resort to smut or profane language. I liked the films so much that I bought the full set including No Limit, plus individual film that he made.- Was this review helpful to you?

A Trip down Memory Lane
By Freddyfox (1 review) from Huddersfield , 04 Dec 2009I remember watching the old George Formby films back in the sixties on the family B&W television. They were regular fare in those days. I laughed at them then and I laughed at them again when I rented them recently. His films had an innocence about them which you wouldn't find nowadays. Have a trip down memory lane and rent these out and you never know, 'It might turn out nice again.'- Was this review helpful to you?

A second group of important interpersonal skills for managers come under the heading of INNOVATING BEHAVIOURS. These are skills that develop a positive, forward thinking, and learning organisation.
Innovative Behaviours
- Creating an Open Environment/ensuring Multilateral Communication – This skills is about facilitating organisational communication and making sure that there are the appropriate mechanisms for people to be aware of organisational goals and where they and others fit into the overall purpose. At it's simplest level it is about listening and responding to information from staff as well as making sure they get key information.
- Searching for alternatives – If you always do what you've always done you'll always get what you've always got. If you want to move forward as a learning organisation and solve thorny problems then alternatives to ways of working and doing things need to be available.
- Learning from Others – In order to learn from other there needs to be an ethos that says that mentoring and coaching is an important activity to ensure the organisation shares vision and maximises skills.
- Encouraging reasonable risks and Managing Failure – not everything we try is successful and works, but a learning organisation that will grow and develop needs to initiate activities that may well have risk of failure involved. Helping staff to accept the risk of failure and not stop them taking reasonable risks in the future is a vital interpersonal skill.
- Providing Constructive Feedback – this speaks for itself, it's not just about praise for a job well done but also the important skill of giving feedback of work not quite right in order to help the person do the job more effectively – without crushing morale or denting motivation.

We see a world spiced by ethical visionaries and driven by integrity, equality and empathy.
Are you a change agent with a passion to make a difference? Or know someone who is?
Participate in the kanthari course starting May 2014.
At kanthari, we help our participants to chase their dreams and make them real.
Watch the video to learn what kanthari is all about.
Welcome to the world of kanthari!
Since 2009, over 40 social initiatives have been set up by kantharis the world over, each of which is making a difference.
Our mission
To provide an incubator and spring board for visionaries who are able to transform concepts and conventions, by offering specially developed, high quality and relevant leadership training.
Through intensive training, Kanthari International equips participants with all the techniques, methods and ideas they need to start up and run effective, relevant social projects all over the world.
Why kanthari?
A kanthari is a plant that grows wild in every backyard of Kerala, a small but very spicy chili with a number of medicinal values. A kanthari is also a symbol for those who have the guts to challenge harmful traditions and the status quo, who have fire in their belly and a lot of innovative ideas to make a positive difference. For us a kanthari will become the symbol of a new type of leader a leader from the margins of society.
Reaching out to "kantharis"
Our aim is to reach out and develop potential social leaders from the margins of society. The intake is based on their talent, dreams and the major adversity (Pinching point) they have overcome in life. Our aim is to hone those "kantharis" who have gained strength from their adversities and, through our innovative curriculum and being a part of a target group, similar to themselves, are intrinsically driven to create ethical social change.

BofA Threatens Family With Foreclosure Over $1 'Coding Error'
Nov 4th 2011 2:00PM
When Shantell Curtis sold her Vernal, Utah, home last year, she expected, as a reasonable person might, that she'd paid her last mortgage payment on the house. But her lender, Bank of America, thought differently, according to KUTV 2News in Utah. Because of a $1 "coding error" on the bank's part, the title to Curtis' home... Continue Reading »

SPRING LAKE - A Fort Bragg soldier is accused of abusing his 5-week-old son and causing major brain injuries, the Spring Lake Police Department said.
Steve Ray Bravo, 23, of the 700 block of Wellons Avenue in Spring Lake, is charged with child abuse causing serious bodily injury, a news release said.
Bravo is assigned to the 782nd Brigade Support Battalion, 4th Brigade Combat Team, 82nd Airborne Division, the release said.
Bravo made his first appearance Tuesday in the Cumberland County Detention Center.
Judge Lou Olivera ordered Bravo confined to his barracks with electronic monitoring. Bail was set at $75,000.
"My concern is for the safety of that child," Olivera said.
The mother of the child, who left the courtroom in tears, declined to comment.
Bravo and his wife took the baby to Cape Fear Valley Medical Center about 3 a.m. Thursday after noticing he was not breathing properly, the release said.
Hospital workers discovered the baby had suffered brain damage, the release said.
Cape Fear Valley workers contacted Spring Lake police about 6 a.m. Thursday after determining the injuries were not the result of an accident, the release said.
Police Chief Troy McDuffie would not elaborate Tuesday on the baby's injuries.

This meal is satisfying, tasty, and is quick to throw together . You can toss the ingredients in a pot and let them cook while you're changing out of work clothes, cleaning kiddos, or taking the dog for a walk. Not only is it frugal by using the whole chicken, it also allows for a second meal the following night in the form of soup (stay tuned for a future 'Spin on that). And, it is amazingly versatile, meaning you can literally use whatever food you have in your kitchen, besides the chicken of course.
But mostly this dish is simply delicious! You won't miss the crisp chicken skin at all, trust me. The taste and juiciness of the chicken will make you forget all about crisp skin, and you'll be turning to this chicken in a pot time and time again.
To make a chicken in a pot you need only four types of ingredients. I've even used vegetables that were starting to turn to the low-side of fresh and saved them from the compost bin. Below I give you two versions of this dish, but here are the basic ingredients. Let your own culinary tastes be your guide:
- 1 whole chicken
- 3 or 4 kinds of vegetables
- Seasonings or spices
- 1/4 cup of liquid (your choice)
The basic process is to first grab a large dutch oven or pot that will hold a whole chicken plus vegetables. You can fill it to the brim, just as long as there's room to put a lid on it. No stirring is necessary in this dish, so your pot doesn't need to be ginormous; just-big-enough is fine.
The first step is to place about a tablespoon or two of oil (olive, vegetable, or any sort of fat will do) in the bottom of your pot and brown both sides of your bird. Be sure to sprinkle some salt and pepper on the chicken, to taste. You can brown the bird as deep a color as you like–once I even accidentally burnt the damn bird, and went with it anyway. It worked out fine and gave the dish a nice "smoky" flavor. Another time I was in a huge hurry and bypassed the browning altogether, simply throwing everything in a pot and calling it good; it still tasted great!
After the chicken is browned on both sides, add your chopped vegetables. I always like to include onion and garlic in mine if I have them on hand, so I tend to pop those in before the other vegetables and let them brown a bit, too. Next, add the rest of your vegetables, which have been chopped into chunks or slices. Keep in mind that root vegetables need to chopped smaller than something that will take less time to cook, like cabbage. But this dish is very forgiving and you can easily leave the pot cooking until everything is cooked through. There is zero worry that the chicken will dry out.
Lastly, toss in about 1/4 cup of liquid, cover the pot, and turn the heat to medium-low. Let the chicken cook, covered, for about 45 minutes or until the internal temperature of the meat reads between 165F to 180F.
Here are some variations on this theme. Feel free to make up your own!

Carmen and Steve made us feel very welcome. The rooms were all comfortably appointed and were charming as well. We loved the comfy chairs on the porch and enjoyed a common area to visit with other guests. Our breakfast was delicious and beautifully prepared. It is a wonderful location from which to visit Roundtop and Texas A & M.

We could not have had a better host in Steve and Carmen. They went out of their way to make us feel comfortable and relaxed. The breakfast Saturday and Sunday were outstanding. The whole weekend was a huge success and they were everything you could hope for in a host. My sister and I had a very relaxing weekend that included a wedding at Round Top and they provided us with very interesting places to visit,which we greatly appreciated. Dawn Price and Denise Pike.

In the midst of a small farming community, but so close to a mulititude of activities in the texas Hill Country is the Knittel. Not only were the accomodations and hosptiality exceptional, but there is an added bonus of two beautifully restored residences on the property and the owners to tell the stories. Go and rest peacfully in the evenings then take off in almost any direction for a day of fun! The wildflowers were an exceptional bonus never to be missed.

Wonderful place to spend our anniversary. Great attention to details and a wonderful bed, double bath, and awesome breakfast! Snacks and drinks were in the cozy common area, along with a coffeepot which was set to brew at 7:30 each morning. Everything was very clean and decorated with great care.

We had a fabulous anniversary weekend at Knittel Inn. The room was beautiful and we were impressed with the decorations and attention to detail. We enjoyed hearing about the history of the Knittel Inn from the owners, Carmen and Steve. The inn was in walking distance from some of the local hangouts and it was fun to meet some of the residents of Burton. We can't wait to go back!

My husband and I were fortunate to spend 5 days at the Knittel Homestead Inn. Comfort and peace are to be found in abundance at this jewel of a B&B. Meals are a culinary dream and Steve and Carmen are delightful hosts. We stayed in the Paris Apartment and hated to leave when our vacation was over. Comfy bed and linens, front porch is a great place to put up your feet and read a great book, lots of character and charm in the decor and the oversized tub with complimentary bubble bath was great! Burton is a great small town and is just a short drive to a multitude of things to do in the area. Overall, the Knittel Homestead Inn is perfection!

My wife and I stayed for the weekend and loved every minute. Steve and Carmen were wonderful host. The room was relaxing and was wonderful down time for the wife and I.

We had a wonderful Valentine's Day(s) at the Knittel Homestead Inn. It was easy to find and very welcoming. Our room, the Bungalow, was spacious, charming and well appointed. Our reservation included breakfast which was terrific both days we were there. The Innkeepers, Steve and Carmen, were a lot of fun and Carmen kept a lively conversation going amongst all the guests during the meal. The pizza that we were served the second evening we were there was delicious, too... we enjoyed it in the common area of the house with a bottle of delicious wine on a checkered table cloth. The White Horse Tavern, a block or so away had good, cold beer. We spent the days exploring south central Texas and the evenings relaxing in the very peaceful environment of the Knittel Homestead.

The guest house has very cozy and private rooms. The bathroom was huge. And breakfast was a gourmet treat.

We have stayed at many Bed & Breakfast places around TX. Most of which did not impress us enough to make a return visit. This place was different! We noticed and appreciated so many little thoughtful touches that we found here. There were umbrellas available by the door that we took advantage of our first morning there, as it was raining, and our umbrellas were in the car. It was nice to get to eat in the beautiful dining room and meet other couples that were staying there. The food was warm and delicious. Our server, Carmen, entertained us with stories of refinishing the beautiful staircase in the home there. We were very pleased with our stay at Knittel Homestead Inn and hope to return someday :)

Steve and Carmen Finn make Innkeeping look easy! Whether sitting on the wraparound porch enjoying the peace and quiet or relaxing in one of the perfectly appointed guestrooms, your experience with the Knittel will not disappoint. The facility is an ongoing labor of love externally...but the interior is absolutely perfect. The 3-course gourmet breakfasts were delightful and the conversation warm and enjoyable. Although Burton is not quite up and coming yet, there is a quaint little pub with an acordian player who served with John Wayne and a restaurant owned by a chef previously with the Four Seasons restaurant in Dallas. We highly recommend the Knittel Homestead Inn and will be returning with family!

My husband and I celebrated our second wedding anniversary here, and it was beyond our expectations. The Innkeepers Steve and Carmen are delightful and full of great stories, and delicious recipes.

We stayed in the Lodge room and loved it. The hosts were very gracious, very informative, and very nice. The food at breakfast was also great and we ordered one of their homemade pizzas and loved it. We got all of the rest and relaxation that we wanted. I would definitely recommend you try out the Knittel Homestead Inn. We will certainly be back, and will try out one of the other rooms :-D. Oh yeah, and the beds were more comfortable than any hotel mattress I have slept on.

The food was excellent (full breakfast and yummy snacks), the rooms were so comfortable-both cozy, elegant and functional (did I mention a huge bathroom with bubble bath included?).

We are a couple that wanted a getaway to de-stress. From the time we first arrived at subject inn we loved it. The accommodations were top notch, the exterior of both, the main house and the Washington House (the house we stayed in) were very impressive. We stayed in the Flora Room, it had five large windows (with shades) which gave it a wonderful sunny atmosphere. The first morning of our stay we took a leisurely walk around town and then went to the main house for breakfast. We were in for quite a pleasant surprise, as we entered the main house, we were very impressed with the beautiful interior of the home. The breakfast was phenomenal, Steve and Carmen (the innkeepers) were fantastic!! They provided a wonderful breakfast that you would have to experience yourself in order to appreciate. Words alone cannot properly describe what an enjoyable, all-around wonderful stay this was for us. Bottom line, service, food, accommodations, atmosphere, all made for an excellent, relaxing stay. I highly recommend The Knittel Homestead Inn.

Hubby and I had a wonderful and relaxing stay. Burton is a small town with a population of 359. We live in Houston and this was a beautiful change of pace. The Bed and Breakfast was truly magnificent. Carmen and Steve are great Innkeepers and they complement each other well. We enjoyed a glorious two day stay and hope to be back!

We got married at Knittel Homestead. Steve and Carmen did everything in order to make our wedding and stay just perfect. The wedding was easy and we didn't have to plan anything. We were so relaxed while we were there and really enjoyed it. The food they prepared the evening after the wedding and in the morning were both awesome. We would definitely recommend this place to anyone interested in staying in the area.

If you want to be treated like a king or a queen, the Knittel Homestead Inn is the place to be. The rooms are wonderful and cozy, with much attention to detail and making your stay enjoyable. The beds and pillows are so comfortable, you will be tempted to try to put them in your car when you leave. The owners, Steve and Carmen, go out of their way to ensure your stay is memorable. The breakfast is 5 star and served in an elegant dining room. You can sit and relax on the wide front porch, go for a walk in the quaint town of Burton, shop in Steve's Antique Barn, or just relax and sleep in your cozy room. I will go back!!!!

We have stayed at Knittel Homestead five times and each time has been AWESOME! Carmen and Steve are impeccable hosts and make our stays so enjoyable. We look forward to the fantastic breakfast each morning and are amazed at their hospitality. The rooms are so very comfortable, sparkling clean, and beautifully decorated. We love sitting on the porch of the Washington house in the evenings. It can be pouring rain and it is still a treat to just relax and enjoy the peaceful surroundings. Steve's pizza is great and is a very nice convenience they have added to their offerings. When in the area, we will always stay with the Finns!

While antiquing at Round Top was a washout with the two-day rain storm, our B & B made our trip worthwhile.

My husband and I always had doubts about staying at a b&b, but Knittel's changed our minds. This place is awesome because you feel right at home before you walk in.

We booked this b&b b/c the one we usually stay at during Round Top was already booked. This one was more expensive but ended up being totally worth it. The rooms were comfortable and the in room bathroom big enough. The real treat was the hot cooked served breakfast on china. It was nice to have a gourmet breakfast and to be waited on, too! We will definitely return!

My wife and 2 grown daughters and a boyfriend were all in town for a family reunion - what an oustanding visit we had, capped each evening with quite, restful, sparkling clean accomodations presented by Steve and Carmen. The rooms are simply perfect! They have done such a fantastic job of restoration and decorating. My wife and I stayed in the "Lodge" room and I was delighted with the outdoorsy atmosphere. The Finn's attended to every detail and were wonderful hosts. We can not personally speak for the breakfasts but reading through several years worth of comments from guests, we feel comfortable stating the breakfasts are "delicious!" Carmen even made us a "short" pot of coffee the night before we left. Looking forward to the opportunity to visit again!

This is a wonderful B&B that I would recommend to anyone. The Isabella room that we stayed in was beautiful from the tastefully adorned room to the antique claw foot bath. There is nothing nicer than relaxing in the wooden rockers on the huge second story wrap-around porch on a quiet Burton afternoon. The morning breakfast fare was wonderful, better than you could find in most any fine dining establishment. The inn keepers were wonderful people who were full of interesting stories about the rich history of the Knittel Homestead.

The Knittel Homestead Inn has become our secret getaway. If your interest is in antiques or Festival Hill music activities or gourmet French food or just pure relaxation, this is a refuge for you. Our favorite room—-there are six--is the Bungalow room, which is adorned with beautiful mission furniture and Arts and Crafts décor. A close second is the Paris apartment, which, with the slightest imagination, could face out onto the Champs Elysees. Steve and Carmen Finn are the innkeepers. They are wonderful conversationalists, who live by the credo, "Strangers are friends whom we have not yet met." They have extensive knowledge about architectural decoration, and have amassed an interesting collection of antiques in a barn on the property. As for breakfast, you will not go hungry or dissatisfied. Breakfasts are made from scratch and we were offered imaginative creations every morning. For dinner, noted chef Andre Delacroix, offers the best of French fare at his Brazos Belle Restaurant, which is located across the street from the Inn.

We stayed in the Isabella room for two nights and were blown away by the beauty of the room. The service and friendliness of Steve and Carmen exceeded expectations. The room was definitely big enough and the bed was very comfortable. We had access to the wrap around porch on the main house and the views and scenery were breathtaking. We definitely will be staying at the Knittel Homestead again and highly recommend anyone looking to stay at a bed and breakfast to stay at the Knittel.

My husband & I stayed at the Knittle Homestead last year while looking for property in the Burton area. Steve & Carmen were the most wonderful hosts! The restorations they have done on these homes is phenominal! The rooms are very well appointed, private, large & felt like home. Steve's breakfast is worth the visit in itself... what a masterpiece!! Although we now live in the area, I'm looking forward to another visit to their lovely home. This jewel is not to be missed!

In hindsight, it's ironic. It was early September 2008, and FABTECH was set to open in Las Vegas in a few weeks. Up until that point a hot bed of growth, especially in real estate. But then Lehman Brothers declared bankruptcy.
Still, even a few weeks into the crisis, the metal fabrication community seemed optimistic. The first day of the show, on Oct. 6, broke attendance records. Shop owners seemed optimistic. Sure, people in real estate, including many of those in and around Sin City, had a lot to worry about. But many fabricators are notoriously conservative when it comes to debt.
Over the next weeks, I called various companies, just to get a status update. How was business? Most told me that things were going just fine—no problems yet. Then, between November 2008 and January 2009, panic set in. Orders were pushed back, then canceled. Soon, I found myself updating my Rolodex®. People were losing their jobs. Many fabricators, some long-time contacts of mine, just weren't there anymore.

You will need:
- water
- blue dish-soap (any brand seems to work)
- 100% Silicone (do not buy quick set silicone, you need 100% silicone)
- bowl
- caulking gun
- something you want to make a mold of.
- scissors/knife
- masking tape - to patch holes in your positive, if necessary.
Step 1: Make your catalyzing solution.
This is by no means an exact science, I use blue dish soap because it allows me to see how much I have added to a water bath, I approximate that I used 4 oz. of soap in 64 oz. of water.
Step 2: Catalyzing the silicone.
I use the whole tube usually.
Step 3: Preparing the silicone.
When it begins to become a bit less malleable, and stiffen, it is time to sink your positive into your material. In this case, Mike helped me, and we used his dinosaur, Jesus. (hay-zoos)

I've used this to make custom insulators and rubber-Sugru-like items. If you want a courser texture add a little cornstarch. -Lee Studley
but it was super sticky when handling it, should i put in more or try a glycerine based dish soap instead?
thanks in advance =]
Do you think the mold could go in the oven, like silicone baking products? I was thinking this would be awesome for making custom crayon molds.... but I don't want to kill myself with off-gassing or chemicals.... Thank you, this looks like such an awesome idea!
It is water that accelerates the curing. water in corn starch or grout. (which is why in recipes for both these agents, you start with a certain amount of water too add and then add accordingly until mixture is right, depending mainly on air humidity and how much is already absorbed)
The soap releases, which is why it works way better than spit for going around a tub(spit works too, but silicone unavoidably sticks to your fingers and makes a mess eventually)
I can't wait to try this out. So cool. A liitle dish of water and dishsoap is great to smooth the joints when caulking around a shower or tub too.
Silicone is awesome stuff.
Radioactive T-Rex... my boy would be geeked for that!

Rebecca Campen, M.D., J.D., is an assistant professor of dermatology at Harvard Medical School. She divides her time between clinical practice of dermatology at the Massachusetts General Hospital and private practice in Savannah, Ga.
Yes, antidepressants can help neurodermatitis.
Neurodermatitis, or lichen simplex chronicus, is a chronic skin condition characterized by intense itching. When you scratching the itch, it irritates nerve endings in the skin. This just causes more itching and scratching. An "itch-scratch-itch cycle" sets in, and it is tough to break.
Anything that causes itching can start this cycle — an insect bite, an itchy scar, or a reaction to a skin product. Stress or habit can also start the cycle. For instance, you can unconsciously scratch your leg while studying, scratch your arm when you're nervous, or scratch as a chronic habit. But whatever the original cause, continued scratching results in itchy, thickened, discolored skin.
Neurodermatitis is often seen on the arms or legs. But it can happen on any area that can be reached. Once the skin gets irritated and thickened, itching is intense. Scratching feels good and is hard to resist. This is especially true at bedtime, when you have fewer distractions. Persistent itching can result in anxiety. And scratching can lead to skin break down and infection.
To treat neurodermatitis, you need to break the itch-scratch-itch cycle. Here are some tips:
If the itching keeps up, your doctor may want to evaluate you for underlying factors or conditions that may be contributing to the itching. He or she may recommend a skin biopsy and/or allergy testing.
Your doctor may prescribe Steroid creams and ointments to help with itching and redness. But these alone will not be enough if the scratching continues. These oral medicines can help:
Constant scratching lets bacteria or other germs to get into the skin, causing a skin infection. If this happens, your doctor will prescribe a topical or oral antibiotic.
Neurodermatitis is not a simple skin condition. It may have started with an itch. But scratching becomes a necessity, and causes stress and anxiety. That's why anti-anxiety, anti-depressant, and mood-altering drugs may be very helpful in breaking the itch-scratch-itch cycle.

MU Stage 2 Proposed Rules Released
Senior editor Cheryl Clark provided additional reporting.
The long-anticipated proposed rules for meaningful use Stage 2 were released late Thursday by the Department of Health and Human Services.
view the 455-page proposed rules document |
In a press conference at the annual conference for the Healthcare Information and Management Systems Society, (HIMSS) Farzad Mostashari, head of the Office of the National Coordinator for Health IT, characterized the proposed rules as "reducing the regulatory burden" for providers. He noted that the proposed rules are consistent with recommendations by the Health IT Policy and Health IT Standards committees.
"It's our expectation that the vast majority of providers and nearly every hospital will become meaningful users."
Mostashari highlighted these aspects of the proposed rule:
- It continues the core and menu objectives. He said the Department of Health and Human Services considered eliminating the menu objectives but decided it was important to provide that flexibility of meeting both core and menu objectives.
- Regardless of when they start, everyone would have two years in Stage 1, two years in Stage 2, and two years in Stage 3
- A 90-day reporting period would be retained for the first year
- It allows medical groups to report quality measures as a group instead of on an individual basis. In a practice with 20 doctors, for example, there would be no need to individually slice out which provider had which quality measure. Mostashari said that's more in line with the principle of team and accountable group care.
- HHS is seeking comments on whether group reporting should be extended to functional measures such as prescribing measures.
- By default, vendors would enable encryption on end user devices
