Recipe by Chef John
"Not only is this American classic American and classic, it is also one of the most comforting things you'll ever eat and the great thing about this dumpling recipe is that it will work on just about any soup or stew!"
Watch video tips and tricks
1 (3 to 3 1/2 pound) whole chicken
2 1/2 quarts cold water
1 large carrot, cubed
1 stalk celery, chopped
1 onion, chopped
3 sprigs fresh thyme
1 bay leaf
2 tablespoons all-purpose flour, or as needed
salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper, or more to taste
1/2 cup creme fraiche
1/2 cup milk
2 teaspoons chopped fresh thyme leaves
2 eggs
2 cups self-rising flour
4 sprigs thyme, for garnish
Just finished making this. Followed the recipe and video exactly. It is SO good and SO easy! I've never had success with making dumplings until tonight, and it is getting thumbs up from the whole family. Watch the video, it makes it impossible to mess up!
Followed the recipe exactly. Sauce was quite thin and didn't have much flavor, though I think the cayenne pepper actually saved it. It was fun trying a different version of the Chicken and Dumplings I usually prepare. Thanks for the post Chef!

Wonderful recipe. Fun to make and great to eat
Excellent made as recipe states. If you want to "zip it up" hit it with some Tony's Louisiana Seasoning. I think he spells his name Tony Chattere' of something like that. Dynomite in a bowl!
Great basic recipe. My changes will include, half prepared chicken stock/half water (not enough flavor for me), more carrot and celery. I used a slightly larger chicken and appreciated the additional meat. Thanks for sharing.
My wife loves to make chicken and dumplings, so I thought I'd surprise her with this more advanced recipe. I was a little disappointed. IT was very watery with very little flavor. The dumplings cooked up nice and fluffy, but I think the recipe my wife uses found on the bak of a bisquik box beats this recipe hands down.
Awesome recipe! I didn't have creme fraiche so I used sour cream plus I subsituted buttermilk for the milk. To add alittle thickness to the soup base one can of cream of chicken soup really did the trick. The biscuits were so light and fluffy but still had great texture and flavor. 'My family loves alittle heat...so I added a jalapeno cut lengthwise during the cooking process and fished it out before adding the dumplings! Most definetly will make this again!
This was really GOOD!! I used my old dumpling recipe because I didn't have self-rising flour or creme fraiche but followed the rest of it exactly. Mine was a little "brothy"; might try adding a little more flour next time. Added full 1/2 tsp cayenne pepper. Made it a little warm but certainly not too hot! My daughter ate 3 helpings!! Will certainly make again!

Welsh lodge appeal to RFU
12:10pm Friday 8th June 2012 in Rugby Union By Graham Moody, Sports Reporter
London Welsh submitted their appeal to the RFU last night as they began their fight for a place in the Premiership.
The Exiles won the Championship last week with a 66-41 aggregate final victory over Cornish Pirates but were denied promotion because the RFU deemed they had not met the relevant criteria for home games – which they plan to play at Oxford United's Kassam Stadium.
Yesterday was the deadline for Welsh to submit their counter argument, and chairman Bleddyn Phillips confirmed they had done just that, with the RFU setting a preliminary date of June 21 for the hearing.
Phillips also released a statement this morning, thanking those who have offered the club support in the past week.
The statement in full reads:
"London Welsh RFC would like to confirm that it lodged an appeal with the RFU yesterday, within the agreed deadline, against the decision by the RFU not to promote London Welsh to the Aviva Premiership on the grounds that the club did not meet all the relevant Minimum Standards Criteria ('MSC').
The board of directors of London Welsh would also like to take this opportunity to thank not only its traditional and very loyal supporter base for all the help and encouragement it has given throughout the 2011/12 Season (and especially over the recent very challenging weeks culminating in the reward of winning the Championship), but also all those more neutral observers who have overwhelmingly lent their support over the past week or so to London Welsh in its bid to secure promotion to the Premiership.
This includes not only the general rugby supporting public but more specifically owners and managers of Premiership clubs and other rugby clubs as well as leaders of clubs in the Football League and other sporting institutions.
These offers of help and encouragement extend not only to promises of financial and professional support but also to offering up, in several cases, sporting venues as stadia where London Welsh might wish to play their 'home' games in 2012/13.
We are most grateful to all of you for this, which to our mind underscores very sharply what we believe to be the fundamental issue at stake here, namely that any team which demonstrates on the field of play that it has the requisite skills and resources to win through to the top of its division or playing group should be allowed to move on to the next tier thereby upholding the competitive spirit of sport in general and the ethos of promotion and relegation on merit based principles.
That London Welsh, in common with other teams already based in the Premiership who ground share with teams from the Football League, has arrangements already in place to play its 'home' games next season at a top sporting venue which would rank, in our view, as one of the best grounds offering up Premiership rugby in 2012/13, to our mind makes our case for promotion even more compelling and the reasoning behind its rejection even more difficult to fathom.
Thank you again to everyone for your continued support, loyalty and understanding of the principles we are seeking to uphold and your unequivocal commitment to our case."

Dose it not understand that they are there to help and not hinder clubs and supporters ? It's time to leave its amateur thoughts behind and listen to the rank and file . Well done London Welsh for winning on the field of play and that says it all to the RFU.

The Public Health Certificate (PHC) Program consists of five required courses. The PHC Program prepares participants with a broad understanding of the core areas of public health and skills necessary for public health practice in a wide range of public and private institutions. This certificate is ideal for those students who are working on a Master's degree in another field, but have an interest in or plan to work in a public health setting, or for professionals who are working in the field but do not have a degree in public health. The PHC is offered through the Master of Public Health (MPH) program. MPH faculty teach the required PHC courses, and students take courses along with MPH students. The UNF MPH Program is nationally accredited by the Council on Education for Public Health (CEPH).
The Certificate courses are accessible to working professionals. All courses are offered in one of three manners:
Students can take 1-2 classes per semester and complete the certificate in 3 to 5 semesters.
Students enrolled in any UNF graduate program may earn the Public Health Certificate, but students are not required to be admitted to a UNF graduate program. There are no pre-requisite courses required; individuals with a bachelor's degree in any field may be accepted into the PHC Program. Acceptance into the PHC Program is dependent on student eligibility and space in the program. Students who have graduated from the MPH program or are enrolled in the MPH Program are not eligible to earn the Certificate. All courses for the Certificate must be completed at the University of North Florida.

Reload the page and try again.
C A+F Diversity: Most people on campus are accepting and tolerant of others even if they don't agree with other's choices.
B A+F Diversity: The diversity is present in age, gender. Not certain about other areas.
C A+F Diversity: I think that we as a University accept all students. You will always have those who feel like an outcast or those that simply never feel like they fit in.
A A+F Diversity: AU is a very diverse school with students from all over the world. Most of the students I've seen came over from China, but there are people from other places as well. Still, most of the students are white, but that's not really out of place for a small town college. The school is pretty open and accepting of LBGT students as well. Religion wise, the campus is predominately Christian, but the people here are pretty tolerant of other beliefs.
A A+F Diversity: The campus has dozens of international students and is very diverse. There are kids from every background here. They come from different religions and countries. The LGBT community is also prominent.

By Joe Johnson, Athens Banner-Herald
A drunken Athens man in May used a key to get into the apartment of the mother of his children. He then choked her after she refused to loan him her vehicle.
Franklin Johnson was arrested and charged with simple battery for the assault, and less than a month later he pleaded guilty to the misdemeanor offense and was sentenced to one year on probation.
A local prosecutor and Athens area domestic violence advocates are currently working to change state law so that people can be charged with a felony when they choke a victim.

Solia Tourmaline Ceramic Ion Flat Iron (1-3/4")
StacieUnited StatesHairBlondeDry HairCurly HairFine or Thin HairFlattered With The Results!I expected this flat iron to work great, because of the testimonials here on folica.com and youtube.com. So, I was eager to test this on my locks of hair. I tried it out immediately after opening the package and as expected, it worked great! My flat hair even lasted during the raining humidity my area experiences. So, yep, this is a keeper!posted May 7, 2012Link to this post

April J.United StatesHairDark BrownThick or Coarse HairThe Worst...I purchased this flat iron back in December and it was cool at first. As time when on it just wasn't working right. I should have never cheated on my Sedu... I purchased a new one today. Smh!posted May 6, 2012Link to this post
Julia D.Port Clinton, OHHairMedium BrownNormal HairDry HairCurly HairColor Treated HairThick or Coarse HairI'm Blown Away!I have thick naturally wavy-curly hair. Notice that I didn't say one or the other. Curly hair is good, and wavy hair is good, but a combination of the two is just plain a pain in the butt. When you lay on it and wake up it's in every direction possible and the only way to control it again is to wash it....again, a pain in the butt. So, for years I simply wore it super short. My Sister, who has the same hair type as me, but wears it long, just let it dry naturally, and lived with the mess. It wasn't very attractive, but her sparkling personality balanced it well. Then, one day, she bought a flat iron and used it and told me of the great results. On a recent visit to her house, I saw the results first hand and was blown away by how great her hair looked. It was then that I had hope that I could grow my hair out and have beautiful long hair too. I bought the Solia after reading so many great reviews and couldn't wait for it to be delivered. When it arrived, I immediately went and tried it on my hair. Again, I was blown away by the results. For the first time in my life, I had straight hair. It was silky and beautiful. And, the best part of all of this is that I can go for three days straight without washing my hair, because when I sleep on it, and wake up, it's still straight! I could probably go longer, but it starts to look dirty....:) It's nice to be able to put some oils back in my hair, and I can tell that since using the Solia my hair is getting healthier and healthier. I pair it with a really nice Macadamia Healing Oil, which makes my hair smooth as silk. I couldn't be happier with the results and I am finally able to grow my hair long....something I haven't had since I was a young child. Thank you Solia!!!posted May 1, 2012Link to this post
KimWorks Great... When It Works.I have been using this Solia flat iron for years now... I liked it better than other flat irons because it lasted so long and really worked great. I had gone though many flat irons that only lasted a year or so before they broke. The first one I had lasted me a good 5 years. When I got a new one, it lasted me maybe 6 months and just randomly stopped working. I sent it back in and they gave me a replacement.... which also stopped working after a few months. This morning, the replacement for my replacement (which I got a few months ago) just stopped working. No explanation, no obvious reason. I have decided that I'm finished with this flat iron. Time to try a new brand!!posted Apr 19, 2012Link to this post
JessicaCaliforniaHairPlatinum BlondeDry HairColor Treated HairThick or Coarse HairThe BestThis is the best hair straightener I have ever used. I've owned over 12 different hair straighteners and none have worked this way. My hair is thick, frizzy, wavy, and unmanageable. It would take me 45 minutes everyday to straighten my hair with my old flat iron and with the Solia flat iron it now only takes me 12 minutes. I love my Solia straightener. Best investment i have made this year.posted Apr 13, 2012Link to this post
Sadie F.HairDark BrownOily HairCurly HairThick or Coarse HairGodsent Straightener !I can't help but shake my head at the negative reviews posted about this straightener. And some of these reviews don't do justice for this tool. This Solia is well beyond what I expected, and I was expecting the worst but hoping for the best. I got what I hoped for. I can't find a damn thing wrong with it! I am mixed and have curly, thickass, unmanageable hair like you wouldn't believe. If my camera wasn't broken, I would've posted proof. The heaven-sent Solia makes my hair perfectly straight, smooth, and shiny. I used to have the Instyler, and that is one of those hair tools that claims to be a miracle, but honestly, it's a nightmare. The Solia is rescue from all the damage done by that thing...but, that's a whole another review. Highly recommended, GET IT! Don't listen to the negative reviews they're either false or over exaggerated!posted Mar 30, 2012Link to this post
Denise G.United StatesHairMedium BrownCurly HairThick or Coarse HairIt Really Does The Work...My hair is extremely THICK. I have been using this iron for over 3 years now and I haven't had the need to switch to another flat iron. I can curl with it and I can straighten my hair with it. I'm adding here a picture of my daughter (6), whose hair is what you might call CURLY! Really curly! I've been straightening my hair since my teen years (I'm 28) so I guess it comes easy to me to do my own hair. But what I wanted to show is the difference in my daughter's hair. I was at awe!!! The best thing is that her hair does not need a relaxer (she's never had one nor will I ever get her one unless she decides she wants it at an older age) and she has the best of both worlds, straight hair and curly hair. I use a heat protector on her hair as well as as an ant-frizz cream. That's all that I need to get this result. Just look at the picture and see for yourself! After seeing these results, who would want to try anything else? I absolutely LOVE Solia!posted Mar 19, 2012Link to this post
RebeccaHairDark BrownFine or Thin HairLove The Iron And FolicaThis iron leaves my hair so smooth and flattens it quickly. In addition to being a great iron, I can highly recommend buying from Folica. I purchased this iron and after 11 months it suddenly wouldn't turn on. I returned the iron to Folica, and had a brand new iron in my possession 2 days later. Will be buying all my hair tools from them going forward.posted Feb 26, 2012Link to this post
Kathleen M.LouisianaHairDark BrownThick or Coarse HairI Love My SoliaI just got my Solia in a few weeks ago. So far I LOVE IT! It is by far the best straightener I have ever used. My hair is long and thick. Before I purchased my solia I had a chi it lasted me for over two years. It was a great straightener but it took forever to straighten all of my hair. My chi stopped working and I started researching all the different straighteners out there and came across Solia and Sedu. I was really leaning towards Solia but was waiting to spend over $100 for one. It took months for me to finally decide to buy it and the reason I finally did was because there was a huge sale and I got it for $60 plus a free hear proof pouch and free shipping. What a steal! It keeps my hair straight ALL day. My chi only kept my hair straight for a few hours. I highly recommend this product if you have thick long hair!
PS something else I loved about this product it came with a 2 year warranty :)posted Feb 20, 2012Link to this post

About the Chamber
- Details
Following the resolution that led to the downfall of the colonial Spanish government, patriotic fervour among the country's business leaders paved the way for the establishment of the Chamber of Commerce of the Philippines (CCP) in 1903. Barely half a centry after, a group of industrial lists founded the Philippine Chamber of Industries (PCI).
On July 1, 1978, the marriage of both chambers gave birth to one strong force in the business community, the Philippine Chamber of Commerce and Industry (PCCI). With the signing of then President Ferdinance E. Marcos on December 7, 1978 of the Letter of Instruction No. 780, the PCCI was recognized and bestwoed the designation as the country's "single voice of business."
PCCI is the voice of Philippine business recognized by government and international institutions. As a proactive catalyst of development, PCCI promotes and supports the drive for globally competitive Philippine enterprises in partnership with government, local chambers, and other business organizations.
The main responsibility of PCCI is to provide focused advocacy for business growth and sustainable development by providing business services for the advancement of grassroots entrepreneurships, chamber development, international trade relations, business innovation and excellence, and operating efficiency. These will be achieved through a professional organization working in close cooperation with various stakeholders in public and private sectors.
Steadfast suppot for the promotion and growth of micro, small and medium enterprises nationwide;
Pioneer policy reform initiatives to improve the business climate and sustain socio-economic development;
Spearhead national and international networking thorugh business matching, trade misisons, and information sharing;
Support capability building for local chambrs and industry associations.

The fixture looks great overall.
Although the fixture looks great overall, there are a few items that I would have changed. I don't like that the globes are plastic and the bottom globe is glass. The difference in materials impacts the way the light is perceived. Also it was hard to figure out what color bulbs to use as light below uses a different bulb than the globes and the colors didn't match up. I also feel its' a bit expensive considering it's not custom. By:Grant , Designer (New Orleans, LA, USA) Free Shipping. Price Guarantee. Easy Returns.

The last time Dalton High School's football team started a season with two losses was 1975.
But Catamounts coach Matt Land finds such trivia trivial — especially this early in the season.
"It's the first time I've heard that, so it's not in our mind," said Land, a Dalton graduate who was a longtime assistant before taking over as head coach in 2010.
Still, starting with an 0-2 record is a real possibility for Dalton, which heads south to state-level power Calhoun tonight for a cross-classification matchup with the Yellow Jackets at Phil Reeve Stadium. The Cats were off last week after opening the season with a 33-27 triple-overtime loss to Ringgold on Aug. 23.
In tonight's other games involving area programs, Christian Heri-tage is at Murray County, Coahulla Creek is at Gordon Lee, North Murray hosts Dade County and Southeast Whitfield welcomes Gordon Central.
All kickoffs are at 7:30 p.m.
Calhoun has reached the Class 2A state title game each of the past five seasons — the Yellow Jackets' lone win during that stretch was in 2011 — and is a unanimous No. 1 in the Georgia Sports Writers Association's Class 2A poll this week.
On top of that, the Yellow Jackets (1-0) have won four consecutive meetings with Dalton, a Class 4A program.
But just as Land's not paying much attention to history concerning this year's Dalton team, neither is Calhoun coach Hal Lamb when it comes to his Yellow Jackets, who kicked off their 2013 schedule last week with a 37-0 thrashing of Ridgeland — which advanced to last year's Class 4A state championship game.
"First of all, it really doesn't matter what the records are when these two teams play," said Lamb, who is in his 15th season at the program and has a record of 158-29 in that time. "It's a rivalry that goes back a lot longer before I got here."
That rivalry was long heavily tilted in Dalton's favor, though. According to the Georgia High School Football Historians Association website (ghsfha.org), Dalton leads the all-time series 34-7-1, with Calhoun making up ground by winning five of seven meetings since the rivalry resumed in 2006 after a 17-year layoff.
All of that means little to Dalton and Land, who is ultimately looking toward league play and the goal of a region title. Dalton's Sub-region 7B-4A schedule begins Oct. 4 at home versus Ridgeland.
"We want to win every game we play, but the reality is our true season — the one that establishes our goal — technically doesn't start until we play Ridgeland," Land said.
That doesn't mean Dalton is happy with losing two weeks ago to Ringgold, the first time that had happened in 30 years.
"The whole team is hungry, especially after a loss to Ringgold," senior free safety Nathan Bryant said.
Last season, Calhoun won a 55-41 shootout in which Dalton fumbled the opening kickoff to set up an early Yellow Jackets field goal and lead. That loss gave last year's senior class the dubious distinction of being the first in program history to lose four times to Calhoun. This year's senior group faces the same potential outcome.
"We don't want to be another (class) to lose each time to them," senior cornerback Chris Childs said. "We hurt ourselves with mistakes on special teams."
Special teams were costly against Ringgold, too. Two blocked extra-point attempts and a blocked punt are part of the reason for that bad taste. Land said the team works on special teams 15-25 minutes each practice. He also said that the time wasn't increased during the past two weeks' practices.
Kelvis Rhodes, Dalton's junior running back who gained more than 1,500 yards as a sophomore, didn't dress out against Ringgold because of a lingering injury from the offseason. Land classified him as a "game-time decision" for the second straight game and did not make him available for comment. Wide receiver Tyler Britton, a junior, has a broken growth plate and also is questionable.
In Rhodes' absence, sophomore Tyler Noland started at tailback and rushed for 123 yards on 17 carries
"I don't know the status on the kid but we're going to plan for him to be there," Lamb said of Rhodes, who scored six touchdowns in last year's game. "Their offense is not going to change."
Christian Heritage (0-1) at Murray County (0-1)
Murray County's quest to end a 19-game losing streak will go on without a valuable member of the Indians' senior class. Clay Thornbury — a standout two-way lineman and one of just four seniors who has been part of the team the past three years — is out for the remainder of the season.
Thornbury, an offensive guard and defensive tackle, suffered a knee injury in the first quarter of last week's season-opening 35-9 defeat at Coahulla Creek.
"Clay was our best lineman by far," Indians coach Chad Brewer said. "It's so sad because as a senior he had been with the program for four years. He was on every special team. He was in great shape. He is irreplaceable."
Two players will try to fill the void — senior Seth Gilbert on defense and sophomore Diego Leon on offense.
"We still have to line up and play against a good Christian Heritage team," Brewer said. "If we come out and play like we did in the second half last week, I can't ask for any more."
The Indians, who have struggled to even avoid a running clock in the fourth quarter in recent seasons, were competitive at times against Coahulla Creek, cutting the lead to 21-9 in the fourth quarter.
Lions coach Preston Poag anticipates a much closer clash than last year's 55-7 waltz past the Indians.
"Chad has them playing hard in his first year there," Poag said. "We'll have our hands full. We have to hold onto the ball."
Five turnovers proved Christian Heritage's undoing in a season-opening 35-28 setback to Model.
Lions quarterback Trevor Brown threw four touchdown passes — three went to Nich Bartley, who had 10 receptions for 222 yards — in that game.
Coahulla Creek (1-0) at Gordon Lee (1-0)
If the Colts want to win back-to-back games for the first time in two years of varsity football, they'll have to contain Gordon Lee running back Zack Cobb.
The Trojans senior rushed for 216 yards and two touchdowns on 20 carries in last week's 33-7 win against Lakeview-Fort Oglethorpe. He also made six tackles from his cornerback spot.
"They ran the ball extremely well," Coahulla Creek coach Jaren Hamlin said. "They are very physical. Cobb is pretty tough, and it is the same way defensively. They fly around to the ball and are very physical."
Gordon Lee coach Charles Wiggins said that while his team has had success running the ball in both a scrimmage and the season opener, there is still plenty of room for improvement.
"We basically have four new starters up front," Wiggins said of his offensive line. "You never know what you are going to get from them this week. They adapted well on the run and gave our backs a chance last week.
"Our deal is fixing ourselves. It is much like an English teacher with a paper. It is a thing that you can always make a little better."
Coahulla Creek will counter with a running game sparked by Cameron Burton, who had 132 yards on 16 carries against Murray County last week, and quarterback Blaine Williams, who accounted for 180 yards of total offense.
But like most coaches at the beginning of the season, Hamlin saw a lot more things his team didn't do.
"We have to cut out mental mistakes ... penalties and turnovers," Hamlin said. "We had two touchdowns called back off of penalties and a couple of other things that held us back. We left a lot of opportunities on the field that we can't do this week."
Dade County (0-1) at North Murray (0-1)
The Mountaineers are another team hoping to eradicate a bad taste in their mouths.
North Murray spent this past Friday searching for answers in a 35-12 loss to Southeast, and now the team hopes to regain some of the offensive magic it had last season as it welcomes Dade County to Chatsworth.
The Mountaineers scored 57 points against the Wolverines in 2012, winning by 13 to clinch a 2-0 start and guarantee the best record in program history. North Murray had won just one game total in two previous varsity seasons before last year.
"I think we scored about 30 in the third quarter," North Murray coach David Gann said.
And don't think Dade County has forgotten, either.
"So hopefully they remember it and play better on defense," Wolverines coach Bradley Warren said.
Dade County lost 19-13 last week to Alabama's North Sand Mountain. The Wolverines return seven starters on defense and five on offense from last season, while the Mountaineers have three returning on defense and just two on offense.
"It's pretty similar to the Dade County team we played last year," Gann said. "Offensively, they're a smash-mouth kind of football team and defensively they like getting to the ball."
The loss to Southeast included many mistakes for the young North Murray team, which has just 10 seniors on the roster. After returning the opening kickoff for a touchdown, the Mountaineers only gained 170 yards on offense and allowed 323, including 250 on the ground.
"Our biggest problem right now is just ourselves," Gann said. "I hate (saying) 'We're young and inexperienced' because eventually that goes away."
Gordon Central (0-1) at Southeast Whitfield (1-0)
The weather in northwest Georgia feels like mid-summer even though fall is weeks away, and high school football players are feeling the effects of that heat in practices and games.
Southeast coach Sean Gray's Raiders — who are trying to start the season 2-0 for the first time since 1989 — will look for the offense to turn up the temperature against the Warriors tonight.
Gordon Central coach David Humphreys knows how much warm temperatures on game night— and thus, conditioning — can factor in as the clock rolls toward the fourth quarter. A mild summer didn't give teams a chance to acclimate as well as some in the past.
"Last Friday was really the first time the humidity really jumped on us, and we really hadn't practiced all summer in any kind of heat at all ... really until the last two days last week," Humphreys said. "That took its toll on us a little bit, especially mentally."
Gray's defense turned it up a degree to hold North Murray to less than 200 total yards last week, something he hopes the team can continue. One of the defensive leaders against North Murray was senior linebacker Austin Allen, who led the team with 16 tackles.
"He's an outstanding athlete. He's very tough and physical," Gray said of Allen, who also wrestles. "He hasn't played until this season. Our entire defense really set the tone for the game. We swarmed to the football and we picked up right where we left off last year."
With that strong defensive play, Gray is hoping for a continuation of opening night: a 35-point offensive output and a total team effort.
"We averaged 6 yards a play last week, and we ran the ball extremely well," Gray said. "We had 12 different kids touch the football, and five different kids scored a touchdown. I feel like we really have some depth on the offensive side of the ball."

A Look Ahead: Basketball soon starts to heat up
When you are getting into a cold pool, most people just jump right into it. Some sort of ease their way into the water so the shock of the coldness doesn't attack every nerve at once.
That is sort of the way it is with the high school basketball season as well. Usually there isn't a whole lot of meaning in the first month of the season, so no matter what happens, it really doesn't affect a team's postseason chances. So we are all still sort of easing into the water. -

Woo! New features!
It's definitely nice to have the buttons now to insert elements as opposed to just knowing the code to do em, so I like that, and also that you can hide that bar if you want.
I think the background color should be changed to white to make text more legible, and if you still want to use grey as a bg color, maybe try it in the bar above the chatbox.
Also- what does the email icon do?

Comments about Big Agnes King Solomon +15 Sleeping Bag - Double:
My girlfriend and I love this bag. It's roomy enough for both of us to be comfortable. The pad sleeve is a great idea and keeps 2 pads together very well. It's got collars, a drawstring top, and another fold down pad to keep out drafts. Overall it's really brilliantly designed.
The biggest problem, no way is this a 15 degree bag, more like 40. BA was really chincy with the down. An 800 fill bag in this model would be a great option, the UL looks a little too tight for comfort.
Best Uses
Comments about Big Agnes King Solomon +15 Sleeping Bag - Double:
We used this bag the weekend after Christmas 2012 in the Ouachita National Forest. It was reportedly 16 degrees F overnight in Langley, AR. We hiked 9 miles and I really wished the bag were smaller and lighter, but it is what it is and is probably better suited for car camping (BA now has a superlight bag that would be better for backpacking). We utilized the bag with BA's Dual Core insulated pads. Before our trip we tested the bag on a 30F degree night in Dallas with the Insulated Air Core pads and found that they did not provide enough insulation, so I would HIGHLY recommend utilizing the Dual Core pads with this bag at temperatures below 30F. The drawback is that at 5lbs for the bag and just under 2lbs. each for the pads you've got 9 lbs. of just bedding on your back. Again, back to my conclusion, this is phenominally comfortable and warm sleep system probably best suited for car camping.

Comments about Big Agnes King Solomon +15 Sleeping Bag - Double:
My girlfriend and I have used this bag down to about 40 degrees. Its been very comfortable. We both really like it. It packs small when used with an event compression sack. It has been worth the extra money.

Comments about Big Agnes King Solomon +15 Sleeping Bag - Double:
My girlfriend was bugging me for months to get a double-sleeping bag. After a lot of research, we decided on the King Solomon.
I am VERY pleased with this product. Quality of construction is excellent and it actually packs up fairly small (for a double sleeping bag that is). We love the sleeping pad and pillow sleeves (all sleeping bags should have these).
Even though it says that the bag is for those up to 6'2, I'm 6'3 and I fit just fine. I'm also a wide guy (230lbs) and there is plenty of room for both of us in this thing.
Our 20by72 sleeping pads fit nicely into the sleeves, but they would NOT fit anything bigger than this.
I do NOT think that this sleeping bag should be used under 25 or 30 degrees. There is no way it will be comfortable at 15 degrees.
Best Uses
Comments about Big Agnes King Solomon +15 Sleeping Bag - Double:
We use this as our primary 3 season bag. Thoughtfully engineered and by far the best design on the market. If you do your research before purchase this bag it will meet your expectations 100%. In cold weather, 25-40 degrees, I did sleep with only a beanie and wool socks and was too warm. Wife slept in poly pros and slept like a log every time. We have enjoyed this bag on numerous occasions and it really does work perfect. I can compress it down to about a soccer ball size. I would not trade this for anything other double bag on the market.

Comments about Big Agnes King Solomon +15 Sleeping Bag - Double:
I bought the bag with the Insulated Air Core pads based solely on reviews. The bag is great! The pads, not so much. I initially thought the combo was fine but my honey was uncomfortable and also complained about noise. The pads were the source of most of the noise, once we switched to REI Trekker 1.75 pads. MUCH quieter and did not lose any warmth. The bag is great for us. I use a Sea to Summit eVent dry sack to compress the bag down to about the size of a basketball.

Comments about Big Agnes King Solomon +15 Sleeping Bag - Double:
I was finally warm for the first time ever while camping! We've only used this once, but slept through a freezing downpour. I had no idea how cold it was outside until I got out of this sleeping bag. I am a small female who tends to get cold easily and my husband is always hot, and he surprisingly was not too hot in this bag. I'm so happy being cold does not have to be a part of camping anymore. The bag is obviously bigger than a regular one person bag, but if you were taking it backpacking you are only taking one bag for 2 people, which is actually lighter than lugging 2 separate bags. We did have to buy one more sleeping pad in order to have matching sleeping pads, but we needed one anyway. 1 bag, 2 people...less is more! I love it! ***and I am finally warm!*** If your wife or girlfriend is always cold, get this bag! (Oh and we got the non-down one first as a gift, but exchanged it and paid the extra for the down...VERY WORTH the extra money.) I figure we will have it for a very very long time, and just after one camping trip I am so glad we spent the extra money and got the down bag...down lays so nice over your body and the temp control is unbeatable. :)

Comments about Big Agnes King Solomon +15 Sleeping Bag - Double:
My wife and I recently used our Big Agnes King Solomon for what was to be a four-day backpacking trip up the West Fork of the Dosewalleps R. in Olympic NP. However, after this experience, I now have to say that my earlier enthusiasm for this bag may have been a bit premature and overly optimistic.
In a nutshell: The King Solomon is rated to 15 degrees F, but at 35 degrees F outside temp (confirmed), the bag simply didn't hold warmth. My wife and I were inside a tent with adequate ground pads and the air was still. But, even bundled up in wool leggings, socks and three tops, we both felt cold penetrating the top baffles of the bag to the point of shiver.
So, realizing that the bag wouldn't be adequate at 25-degree temps we anticipated near Anderson Pass, we decided to terminate the trip early - a major disappointment.
For the high price of this bag it seems to me that BA could use 750-or-higher rated goose down, and more of it, and perhaps thereby meet the +15 warmth claims while keeping the weight low. But they chose not to.
The King Solomon is wonderfully roomy and it does have some great design features. And as long as adequate (R5 or better) ground pads are used, it is really comfortable down to about 40 degrees F. But at 15 degrees you'd simply freeze.
I feel the manufacture is exaggerating low-end temperature ratings for this bag and, on this basis alone, I now have to rate the King Solomon unacceptable.

Comments about Big Agnes King Solomon +15 Sleeping Bag - Double:
Oh Big Agnes, how I love thee!
My wife and I had been eying this bag for quite a while before it was given to us as a wedding gift. After taking it out I have to say it was the best night of sleep I have had with my wife in the back country yet! We had always zipped our mummy bags together in the past but whenever you moved in the middle of the night you would always get tangled up in them. Not in the KS! You can toss and turn and it feels just like your bed at home with a down comforter over you. We also notice that our Big Agnes pads didnt make as much noise in the KS when you moved around on them. Here is the key points of this sleeping bag:
-Roomy, I am 6'4 and while my long pad sticks out of the top of the sleeping bag I still have enough room because I can lay diagnoley.
-Packs simple, One takes the tent, one takes the sleeping bag.
-Big Agnes pad in bag design, creates for no more sliding off the pad nights
-Cozy, if you like to cozy up next to your partner to stay warm in the outside this is the perfect bag for you.
-Light weight, the bag weighs around 5 lbs which if we were both bringing in a sleeping bag together they would be about the same.
Price- If you think about it, you are getting TWO down bags for the price, a steal of a deal if you think of it that way.
Things you should know:
- Cold spots, there is a lot of room on the inside of the bag so cold spots form easily.
-Big opening, Because the opening at the top is designed for 2 people it is significantly bigger and while it does synch down there is still a lot of room for warmth to escape. Dress accordingly and this should not be an issue.
-Pack size, this bag is 2 bags in one and it packs that way. Even in a compression sack it still only gets to be about as small as the small bear canisters and takes up every inch of the bottom of a bag. Only becomes an issue with overnight packs.
-Storage sack. BA did not make an extra large storage sack for this while it is not being used so it barely fits into their normal single bad storage sacks.
-Really cold nights, this bag is probably not the most ideal bag if you are going to be getting into weather below freezing because of the lack of the ability to capture all your body heat.
All in all I LOVE this bag and would recommend it to anyone that enjoys backpack or camping with their significant other.
Best Uses
Comments about Big Agnes King Solomon +15 Sleeping Bag - Double:
Used this bag for 5 weeks straight on our camping, road trip honeymoon. It held up well. We love the zippers on each side for individual temperature control. We used it in hot, humid weather in July as well as in below freezing temperatures and were comfortable in all conditions. We have taken it car camping, multi-day backpacking, and alpine mountaineering. It is an amazing bag! The hood is so adjustable to keep out the unwanted air. I can't think of anything I'd change about this bag!!

Head lice prevention: What works, what doesn't?
By Mayo Clinic staffOriginal Article: http://www.mayoclinic.com/health/head-lice-prevention/AN02174
- With Mayo Clinic internist
James M. Steckelberg, M.D.
read biographyclose windowBiography of
James M. Steckelberg, M.D.
James Steckelberg, M.D.
Dr. James Steckelberg is a consultant in the Division of Infectious Diseases and a professor of medicine at Mayo Medical School.
A native of Fremont, Neb., Dr. Steckelberg was a Rhodes Scholar and graduated from the Mayo Graduate School of Medicine as a resident in internal medicine and a fellow in infectious diseases, and is board certified in both. He is the former director of the Infectious Diseases Research Laboratory at Mayo Clinic.
Dr. Steckelberg belongs to numerous professional organizations. He is a founding member of the Musculoskeletal Infection Society and a fellow of the American College of Physicians and of the Infectious Diseases Society of America. He has served on many Mayo Clinic committees and is a member of the Department of Medicine Leadership Committee and of the executive committee of the Division of Infectious Diseases. He also served on the editorial boards of "Mayo Clinic Proceedings" and "Antimicrobial Agents and Chemotherapy" and has been an editorial reviewer for more than a dozen publications.
Dr. Steckelberg's research interests include experimental models of infection, epidemiology of infection, and antimicrobial resistance and therapy of bacterial infections.
Head lice prevention: What works, what doesn't?
A child at my daughter's school has lice. Can head lice prevention products prevent my daughter from getting lice?
from James M. Steckelberg, M.D.
Some over-the-counter products claim to repel lice, but more scientific research is needed to prove their safety and effectiveness.
A number of small studies have shown that ingredients in some of these products — mostly plant oils such as rosemary, citronella, eucalyptus, tea tree and lemon grass — may work to repel lice. However, these products are classified as "natural" so they aren't regulated by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA), and their safety and effectiveness haven't been tested to FDA standards.
Because instructions for using these products aren't regulated either, it may not be clear how to use them safely. In fact, some products may:
- Be flammable
- Irritate the lungs if fumes are inhaled
- Be toxic or irritate skin
Head lice prevention products can also be more expensive than typical hair care products, and they need to be used repeatedly to maintain their protective effects. Without a guarantee that the product will work, the cost may outweigh the benefits, especially if you're treating more than one person.
Until more research proves the effectiveness of head lice prevention products, you can take simple measures to minimize your child's risk of getting lice:
- Ask your child to avoid head-to-head contact with classmates during play and other activities.
- Instruct your child not to share personal belongings such as hats, scarves, coats, combs, brushes, hair accessories and headphones.
- Instruct your child to avoid shared spaces where hats and clothing from more than one student are hung on a common hook or kept in a locker.

- I took my inspiration from the Victorian style that I had the opportunity to see very closely, during my stay in San Francisco. I thought about the possibility to realize an ornament inspired by victorian ruff but in a more contemporary style.
- In this piece, the leather is regularly cut by hand in a symmetrical way. The color is the king of elegance: black!
Ph Valentina De Meo
MUA Eva Mardhaja
Model Lucrezia
-It's an ornament in the middle between a necklace and a ruff and you can wear it on a very basic dress or on a impalpable shirt, just to give them a unique touch.
-The collar is adjustable and you can close it behind by a little knot.
-It's entirely made by hand, by me, in my atelier in the very center of Bologna, Italy, and it's a unique piece. As every one of my creations there is a little brass tag with my brand sign on it.
-It will arrive to you in an elegant black envelope of glossy paper closed by a delicate indigo ribbon.
22 cm x 21 cm (the shape is irregular and adjustable so these dimensions are approximate)
- Weight:

Material Used
Italian recovery leather, colors: black; harmonic steel structure.

After much success on eBay and collector forums such as Nintendoage.com, we sought to create an online store for collectors to shop conveniently with a discounted price over eBay. In September, videogameboxprotectors.com celebrated 1 year as a successful website. Now in our second year, we are rolling out a new website with an easier to use shopping cart that will eventually offer bulk discounts automatically.
We feature custom size archive grade plastic boxes for video game collections. As collectors ourselves we understand the thrill of acquiring complete, mint condition games and the desire to preserve their condition.
Thanks for your support and check back for new sizes
