No dogs are allowed in the area Dec. 1-May 15. During the remaining months, dogs must be on a leash from the confluence of Spring Creek and Rattlesnake Creek to milepost 1.3.
Another popular Rattlesnake route, Stuart Peak Trail, branches off the main travel corridor at about the half-mile mark. For the next three miles, you follow an old farm lane along Spring Gulch. After a winding, steep climb for another four miles, you reach the wilderness boundary, near Stuart Peak.
At 7,960 feet, Stuart Peak is one of the Rattlesnake's highest points, offering great views of adjacent peaks and the Missoula Valley. There's no designated trail to the peak, but you can reach it by traveling cross-country for about a mile. From this vantage point, you can drop down to Twin Lakes or get back on the trail and head farther into the high country.
The trail continues northward past the Lake Creek drainage, which contains six lakes, and then descends past three more lakes into the Wrangle Creek drainage, where it joins the main travel corridor 15 miles for the trailhead.
Most of the high-country lakes have been stocked with cutthroat trout. However, there are no fish in Twin Lakes or Farmer's Lakes.
You'd be wise to carry plenty of water on this hike. It's demanding, and you can't always count on finding water along the way. If you do drink surface water, the Forest Service recommends that you boil or filter it first.
And please, tread lightly in this unique area. Because of its proximity to town, the Rattlensake receives a lot of use. Try to camp where there are established fire rings, pack out all that you carry in and be courteous to others you might encounter on the trail.

After some thought I can see that you're correct on this. In my defense it was late and I'm new so I guess I should have kept my mouth shut till I got a better picture of what goes on here and what is acceptable.
I agree that as non-believers we need to define our morality in terms other than having it dictated to us by "authorities". Which is another reason why I find the idea of giving any government, under any circumstances, the "right" to torture offensive to the general concepts of liberty. Who draws the line? Who decides who has valuable information?
There are a number of cases where US citizens were tortured in the US or were sent to prisons in countries where their willingness to torture on the US behalf is documented.
Sassan will tell you that he think it should be used on a limited basis, I guess torturing hundreds is a limited based on world population.
This how I was informed when you are in places we say we aren't or you are doing black ops, if you are captured your on your own. If you are killed they will inform your family that you disappeared somewhere else other than where you were. to large degree you are on your own, but you know that going in.
These types of situations are the reason I don't take what the government says at face value, what they tell the public and what they do is not the same.
Do these special protections that only apply to U.S. citizens apply to anyone who achieves citizenship, or only those who are 'natural born citizens' as required for qualification to run for president? If Geneva and Constitutional rights are extended to those who 'achieved' citizenship, are the also extended to those who retain foreign citizenships, as in dual citizenships? What if a natural born American emigrates elsewhere? Can they hold their birth right not to be tortured if they assume a dual citizenship rather than renouncing their American citizenship? This is a big can of worms that I thought the Geneva convention was supposed to eliminate.
"I could equally well say prayer has prevented another 9/11 attack from happening."
[.......................] After reading your quote as listed, one can only deduce that from your thought processing. You claim that your "prayer" would have had as much effect as keeping us safe from another terrorist attack than taking the fight to Al Qaeda and dismantling their terrorist network and organization. [.............................]. I have come to conclude you are most likely an atheist to "stand apart from society" rather than rationality and logic.

Manchester City's Yaya Toure signs new four-year deal
Manchester City midfielder Yaya Toure has signed a new four-year contract with the Premier League club.
The deal will keep the Ivory Coast international at the Etihad Stadium until 2017.
"This is where I want to be," the 29-year-old told the club website.
Yaya Toure factfile
- Age: 29
- Country: Ivory Coast
- Position: Midfielder
- Clubs: Beveren, Metalurh Donetsk, Olympiacos, Monaco, Barcelona, Manchester City
- Major titles: Greek Super League (2005-06), La Liga (2008-09, 2009-10), Champions League (2009), Premier League (2011-12), FA Cup (2011)
"I will never forget how I have been treated here by the fans, the club and the owners and nothing would give me greater pleasure than to finish my career as a Manchester City player."
Toure joined City from Barcelona for a reported £24m in 2010, having helped the Spanish giants win the Champions League title a year earlier.
The box-to-box midfielder has since been an integral member of Roberto Mancini's side, scoring the winning goal in the 2011 FA Cup final and a crucial double against Newcastle United last May to keep the eventual Premier League champions in the title hunt.
Yaya Toure"We must try to finish on a high note and then start preparing to win more next season"
Toure has scored eight goals this season as City have progressed to a Wembley FA Cup semi-final against Chelsea on Sunday 14 April, but his side made an early Champions League exit and are 15 points behind Manchester United in the league with only seven games remaining.
"Of course now it looks likely that we will not successfully defend the Premier League title and that is sad for all of us," Toure added. "But we can still finish second and win the FA Cup for a second time in three years and that is still an achievement for a club that won nothing for a long time.
"We must try to finish on a high note and then start preparing to win more next season. Football is always a challenge and always a puzzle to solve and that is why we all love the game.
"You have to use your skill, intelligence and strength to constantly improve and that is what we at City intend to do."

Voucher Guarantee
Getting more bang for your buck
Good news:
GrabOne's Voucher Guarantee means missing out on claiming your deal in time no longer means losing out altogether!
How does it work?
- A voucher is valid up to and including the expiry date stated.
- If you don't use your voucher before that date for whatever reason, it can still be used as credit towards that service with that business for an additional three months.
For example, if you buy a bungy jump deal but don't use it before the expiry date, you can still use the amount you paid for the voucher as credit towards a bungy jump, for another three months.
A few things to note:
- The GrabOne Voucher Guarantee does not apply to product deals, travel and accommodation-related deals, or time-dependent event deals.
- It's always best to use your voucher before the expiry date, so you get the most value for your money. And if you're a bit forgetful, we now automatically remind you if your vouchers are about to expire.
- During the extended Voucher Guarantee period, your voucher can only be put towards the service stated on the voucher.
- If the offer is seasonal, like a seasonal menu or chimney sweep service, the Voucher Guarantee can be put towards a similar offer at the merchant's discretion.
- The conditions on your voucher still apply during the Voucher Guarantee period.

Comment and opinion from Ekklesia's director, Jonathan Bartley You can follow Jonathan on Twitter at: www.twitter.com/Jon_Bartley
What would happen if just a small proportion of the £1.25 trillion in consumer debt we all owe on was defaulted upon or suddenly called in? Jonathan Bartley looks at economic revolutions, and revolutionizing economics from the standpoint of the Gospel.
Christmas is offensive, and always will be, says Jonathan Bartley. It legitimates the undermining of those in authority. But it is also about looking after not just those who are "deserving" of love, but those who appear disreputable and unworthy.
Among secular groups there is puzzlement and annoyance that government continues to 'pander' to weakened churches in areas like public service provision. This is because, says Jonathan Bartley, they have not grasped the mutual interests involved. These are as much a threat to the churches as an advantage.
Those hoping that when George W. Bush departs the Oval Office, religion will accompany him are likely to be disappointed, says Jonathan Bartley, if a book by the former Guardian religious affairs correspondent is right.
Recent stock market turmoils have disturbed the faith of financiers and scuppered the vulnerable, says Jonathan Bartley. Rather than accept that profit must always be the motivator, institutions can be built around alternative values.
The sixtieth anniversary of India's independence reminds us, says Jonathan Bartley, that the nonviolent activism of Gandhi and the the peaceful and environmental 'awkward squads' point to a more hopeful form of politics and social change.
Britain's schools, including those run by faith groups, talk of inclusion. But Jonathan Bartley's son Samuel has found that the church and education authorities are reluctant to put their money where their mouth is.
The uncomfortable fact is that the church's Christendom ('Christian country') assumptions put it into the position of arguing the same political point about national identity as the BNP. A different way forward is needed.
Jonathan Bartley reflects on the legend of St George, his subversive story, and how he has been co-opted by the powerful
In the brutality of the crucifixion, the political and religious order that put Jesus to death was laid bare. But the church has sweetened and sanitised its saviour far more than chocolatiers can ever do, says Jonathan Bartley.
As the bicentenary of the end of the transatlantic slave trade approaches Jonathan Bartley says we are enslaved until Africa is free
The announcement that there will be no opt-out for Catholic adoption agencies from the Sexual Orientation Regulations, has been interpreted as posing a threat to the involvement of churches in public life.
On the third Monday of every January, the United States marks Martin Luther King Day. The national holiday celebrates the birth and life of the civil rights activist and Baptist minister, whose Christian convictions about justice and the Gospel led him to a path of non-violence and peacemaking.
Anxious claims about anti-Christian discrimination come under scrutiny
Probing the possibility of emerging Christian violence

This is a time to be both politically and practically subversive in the face of a growing political consensus that is hurting the most vulnerable, says Jonathan Bartley. All of the main parties in the UK, including Labour, support the cut in housing benefit. Labour has said that it would not reverse it - or, indeed, most of the other welfare reforms - should it gain power at the next election. In the face of such a negative consensus, new social housing could become a central weapon in the Churches' fight to protect the poorest.
Theologian Tryon Edwards has suggested right actions in the future are the best apologies for bad actions in the past. In that sense, says Jonathan Bartley, true apologies are yet to be forthcoming in many areas of public life today.
The competitive nature of the top-down, corporate capitalist system means we can never truly be 'all in this together', says Jonathan Bartley. All we do is sacrifice the most vulnerable for the sake of maintaining an unjust order. Economic alternatives are essential, and go well beyond statism.

A health headache ahead
Published: Wednesday, March 27, 2013 at 1:00 a.m.
Last Modified: Tuesday, March 26, 2013 at 8:57 p.m.
WASHINGTON - Insurance companies will have to pay out an average of 32 percent more for medical claims on individual health policies under President Barack Obama's overhaul, the nation's leading group of financial risk analysts has estimated.
That's likely to increase premiums for at least some Americans buying individual plans.
The report by the Society of Actuaries could turn into a big headache for the Obama administration at a time when many parts of the country remain skeptical about the Affordable Care Act.
While some states will see medical claims costs per person decline, the report concluded the overwhelming majority will see double-digit increases in their individual health insurance markets, where people purchase coverage directly from insurers.
The disparities are striking. By 2017, the estimated increase would be 62 percent for California, about 80 percent for Ohio, more than 20 percent for Florida and 67 percent for Maryland. Much of the reason for the higher claims costs is that sicker people are expected to join the pool, the report said.
The report did not make similar estimates for employer plans, the mainstay for workers and their families. That's because the primary impact of Obama's law is on people who don't have coverage through their jobs.
The administration questions the design of the study, saying it focused only on one piece of the puzzle and ignored cost relief strategies in the law such as tax credits to help people afford premiums and special payments to insurers who attract an outsize share of the sick. The study also doesn't take into account the potential price-cutting effect of competition in new state insurance markets that will go live on Oct. 1, administration officials said.
At a White House briefing on Tuesday, Health and Human Services Secretary Kathleen Sebelius said some of what passes for health insurance today is so skimpy it can't be compared to the comprehensive coverage available under the law. "Some of these folks have very high catastrophic plans that don't pay for anything unless you get hit by a bus," she said. "They're really mortgage protection, not health insurance."
A prominent national expert, recently retired Medicare chief actuary Rick Foster, said the report does "a credible job" of estimating potential enrollment and costs under the law, "without trying to tilt the answers in any particular direction."
"Having said that," Foster added, "actuaries tend to be financially conservative, so the various assumptions might be more inclined to consider what might go wrong than to anticipate that everything will work beautifully."

This is, hands down, my favorite recycled item EVER, lol!
I thought you might get a kick out of a project my husband and I spent a few weeks working on. We re-purposed an old entertainment center that we had and didn't use and we turned it in to a play kitchen for my daughter instead! I thought other "green" mamas would appreciate that we didn't just take it to the dump.
I'm too lazy to re-type it all (*blush*) but here's a link to it on my blog : http://www.parrforthecourse.com/2012/01/our-diy-play-kitchen-pipers-christmas.html
She absolutely LOVES it and I am so pleased with the way it turned out!! :)

That is like, the cutest play kitchen I have EVER seen! I want one!
None of the ideas expressed above are actually mine. They are told to me by Luthor and Ferdinand, the five inch tall space aliens who live under my desk. In return for these ideas, I have given them permission to eat any dust bunnies they may find under there.
That is awesome!!!

Happy International Day of Happiness!
I started my day watching a solar eclipse, so why shouldn't my nails be smiling? I only wish I were further north! Did you see it too? If you're not smiling, do something nice for yourself, and turn to happy! :-)☺:-D
I started with white nails, and stamped the smileys with Bundle Monster BM-304 and Mundo de Uñas #2 Black, and my new Creative Shop stamper that worked from the start.
I used the leadlight technique and lots of sheer polish. I finally bought some polishes for leadlighting. What I didn't think about was that the different polishes didn't have the same pigmentation. So I had to apply two coats of some colors or mix some of the colors. It might have looked better if I only used one brand...
Sheer polish used:
Ellagee: Cadium Glass - yellow
El Corazon, Aquarelle tints: #07 - red
Dance Legend, top coat aquarelle collection: Chagall - purple
Dance Legend, top coat aquarelle collection: Levitan - green
Nailstation: Whisper - orange with orange glitter
OPI: Houston We Have a Purple -blue toned red
The OPI, the green and the purple were very pigmented. The yellow was as I expected, but I needed two coats. In comparison the other two looked more pastel, even after 2 coats.
Levitan makes me think about the movie Leviathan. Have you seen it? It kind of made me feel that there's no point fighting for something...
I've not been very active here and on G+, twitter and facebook lately, but I'm trying to share photos on Instagram. If you are on Instagram, I would love to follow you. I'm nailphotosbylani. If I don't already follow you, please write your IG name in the comments section.
Can you tell that the photos of the plate are inspired by the solar eclipse? LOL!
Happy polishing!

Lovebirds - Valentine's Day Nails #11 - stamping nail art
Happy Groundhog Day!
I made this neon pink lovebird mani today. I stamped the black images on and added three rhinestone hearts. I used a marshmallow stamper to shrink the image on my index finger. I used a Konad stamper and added more black with a brush on the ring finger. On my screen this looks a little orange, but I hope it looks pink on yours.
Products used:
Ruby Kisses: RHDP01 Hot Pink Obsession (neon pink)
MoYou London: Tropical Collection 06 (lovebirds, hearts)
MoYou London: Explorer Collection 23 (flying bird)
MoYou London: Heartshaped rhinestones
Mundo de Uñas: 2 Black (stamping polish)
XL marshmallow stamper (shrinking)
Konad stamper
The MoYou plates are available in this size and XL size. So remember to measure your nails before buying them.
I really like these bird images, but I wish they were smaller. Luckily I can use this image, but on Tropical 06 most of the images of the birds are to wide for my small nails, and it was difficult to shrink an image without distorting it. (This is not a problem for most of you, because most of you have bigger nails than me.)
But if you are reading MoYou, please make the important part of each image small, and if you add a leaf or something, please include the whole leaf, and keep everything very detailed. That way it's easier for both us with small nails and those with bigger nailbeds to use each image successfully.
I had planned to make a Groundhog day mani, but let's hope I'll do that next year... Did you see the movie? It's very romantic, so it would be perfect for a V- day mani.

NPL Daisies - Ruby Wing: Eternal - stamping over color changing polish
Hello everyone!
I had fun with color changing polish again. This time it was Ruby Wing: Eternal, which is made with SolarActive® Technology. It looks turquoise in the shade/ inside and outside/ in the sun it looks dark green- grey. What surprised me, is that the white stamped flowers also changed from white to light pink. I bought Eternal and Crowd Surf in May 2013. They are both from the 2013 Summer Collection, and are still available and cruelty- free (source (look for Forsythe Cosmetic Group)).
I made this in June 2014 when the theme was "Daisies" in the G+ group Nail Polish Lovers. It was too difficult to paint them, and this image was the closest I could find. Two plates from MoYou London's Pro collection have this image: 08 (regular size) and 10 (XL). I don't remember, but I think I used the biggest here. To fix some flowers, I added a little white. And I think that's why the color of the flowers looks uneven in the sun. But now that I've learned that, I'll make sure that the stamping is good next time.
I'm very far behind with my blogging, so I still haven't even showd you all the nail art from 2014, and the polish I was wearing in 2013... not to mention the haul posts the last two years...
Back inside:
What do you think about this? Have you tried color changing polish?

Nire's Desire: Prana
Hello everyone!
with top coat |
I've enjoyed reading many "favorite polish lists" this week. So I started writing one too, but realized that I hadn't even showed them to you... well you have seen a few of them...
That's why you're looking at Nire's Desire: Prana today! :-)
It's one of my top 10 favorite polishes from 2014. It's a multichrome that looks red, purple and blue at the same time. It shifts to a more red or purple/blue. It doesn't have a chrome finish like the ILNP's. It's more like a shimmer. And I like that it doesn't have any holo sparkles. It's a part of The Yoga Trio Collection. It is not tested on animals and Big 5 Free.
My photos were taken in December, so they may look a little too pale because of the winter daylight. Sadly the sun wasn't shining.
2 photos without top coat:
Nire's Desire Polish is a US indie brand, and can be bought on Etsy.
She was very kind and gave me Nire's Desire's top coat with the cool name "The Shining". Have you seen the movie?
Prana was shiny on it's own, but when I applied The Shining, I felt that the polish came to life. I also felt that the red became more visible. But I don't think it's as fast drying as Seche Vite.
2 photos with top coat (The Shining):
Prana is similar to Crows Toes: Indian Summer, but I think Prana is more red, and Indian Summer more blue. The Crumpet has made a good comparison.

Pink Flower Skittlette - Water decals from Born Pretty Store
Hello everyone!
I hope you all had a wonderful New Year celebration! We visited someone who's neighbour sent up a lot of fireworks. Needless to say, we had a very good view from the window, but it was scarily close. And after midnight three deer ran through the garden!!! ♥ First a big one (a male?), and later two smaller (females?). So for me it was an unforgettable start of the new year. It wasn't that fun for the terrified deer though...
I made this skittlette a few months ago to show you these water decals that Born Pretty Store gave me:
I also wanted to try 3 new polishes:
Deborah Lippmann: 12th Street Rag
Misa: Kiss the Bride
Lynnderella: Ten Pipers Pinking
Deborah Lippmann and Misa are cruelty - free. Misa is also vegan (source). I can't find any information about Lynderella regarding animaltesting. (I thought I'd checked that before buying it...) Lynderella can be bought from NorwayNails.com and GlitterConnect.bigcartel.com.
Before adding the water decals:
Thumb and pinkie: My first (and then) only Lynnderella. This is Ten Pipers Pinking. A pink microglitter with holographic glitter - 2 coats + 2 coats of Poshè
Index finger: Deborah Lippmann: 12th Street Rag - a pink metallic - one coat without top coat
Ring and middle finger:
Misa: Kiss the Bride - a classic white creme polish - 3 coats. When I had nearly finished painting a nail, I kept getting too much on the brush, and later ruined it when I thought it was dry. After a lot of frustration, I learned to use 3 thin layers.
Water decals from Born Pretty Store. Sadly I applied one of them without using top coat first... So I had to redo the ring finger a forth time... and then I didn't have time for that, so don't look too closely on the not so perfect white nails. The water decals are perfect, it's my fault.
The first time I tried these water decals, I wanted to make a mani with a pink- grey gradient as background. But I found out that the decals have a little white on them, so I decided to make something else. So now I always do a little test before I start brainstorming about what could work together with the water decals:
I just cut out a piece, hold it with tweezers in a glass of warm water, slide it over to my wet finger, take a look at the colors, slide it back to the wet paper, and let it dry until it's time to use it.
♥ Thank you Born Pretty Store for giving me these pretty water decals! ♥
♥ Happy New Year! ♥

My Dogsled is a Hybrid - My Christmas Day Nails - stamping nail art
Hello everyone!
This mani is inspired by the name of this green OPI polish from the fall/ winter 2014 Nordic Collection: My Dogsled is a Hybrid.
I think it's the best nail polish name ever!!! :-) A hybrid sled would be nice if the dogs were tired. But how can it work? Do you turn it around and it drags the dogs? Or do you put the dogs in the sled and drive it with a gasoline motor? A battery would not last very long in the cold... Or as my boyfriend suggested, the driver would have to drag the dogs and the sled...
This is what I was wearing on Christmas Day. This manicure kind of evolved, so I'll show you the pictures in chronological order.
Step 1. Paint nails with OPI: My Dogsled is a Hybrid
When I noticed that the sun was actually shining, I ran outside to take some photos.
Not sure why my index nail looks strange.
Step 2. Stamp the trees, dogs and birds on.
Then I hurried out before the sun went down, and I went for a long walk, as is our family tradition on Christmas Day.
winter sunset |
This nail polish name also brings back a lot of memories from my childhood...
... and a few years later...
...our neighbours came with us. Our parents probably wanted to walk fast, so I was allowed to be in the pulk with the other children. We lay there, all four of us, in a pulk made for 1 or 2 kids, but we talked and laughed and had fun. It's one of the happiest moments from my childhood...
...I took a course in dog sled driving. We only used 3 dogs, and it's a long time ago, so sadly I don't remember enough to do it today, but it gave me enough reasons to buy this bottle because of it's name, even though I had just bought the "little NORTHIES mini nail lacquers" set, and I think I alredy have some similar green polishes... You might remember them from my Summer Vacation haul post.
Here my skin looks pink because of the cold. I couldn't wear gloves, because they would have made my nails look hairy... LOL
Yes, I know it's upside down |
Step 3. Add "snow".
Sadly, I didn't look at the pictures until I came home. So it was then I added the snow on "the ground". I just used the brush from OPI: My Boyfriend Scales Walls.
Ott- Lite |
Step 4. Add glitter.
It was so cold outside that it looked like someone had sprinkled tiny diamonds everywhere. That's why I felt that the mani needed some glitter.

Products used:
OPI: My Dogsled is a Hybrid - green creme
OPI: My Boyfriend Scales Walls - white creme
OPI: My Voice is a Little Norse - silver holographic glitter
Stamping plates:
Dashica Beauty Shop: Infinity Nails 75 - trees
MoYou London: Explorer Collection 23 - birds
MoYou London: Princess Collection 03 - dogs
Stamping polish:
Konad SN White
Konad SN Black
Seche Vite
As you see, exept for the stamping, I only used OPI. I don't have a sled image plate. LOL! So I had to leave the actual dog sled outside the design. Any suggestions?
Here's one photo taken in daylight, where you can see that it's shiny:

What do you think? Does this nail polish name give you good memories too? Any dog sled drivers among you?

Let it glitter! Golden Star - My Christmas Eve Nails
Hello everyone!
I hope you all had a nice Christmas Holiday!
This is what I was wearing on Christmas Eve. Red with glitter.
The base is 1 coat of a red H&M creme called Dark Red. It's from a 6 pack mini set that's still available on H&M.
The glitter is called Golden Star. It's from a dutch indie brand called Let it glitter!. I had to try this brand after seing some beautiful holos on Maria's blog. The holos and Golden Star are from the Hohoholographic Collection. Golden Star is a clear base filled with tiny gold stars and hexagonal regular sized and small white glitter. This is one coat, and then I dabbed on a little more of the white glitter, and dipped the brush and picked up more stars with a dotting tool. Then I used Seche Vite, but I should have used more of the clear base first or Pochè, because I scratched myself a little. On her web page you can see how beautiful the glitter looks over black.
Look what winter did to my roses:
If you buy something from Let it glitter! remember to also buy O Holo night, or you'll regret it later...Now I wish I had bought big bottles... Do you like this?

how do YOU cook bacon?!?
- 59 Comments
- Follow
I know HOW myself, but wondering if you have a special technique?? I don't cook a lot of bacon & agree it can be a bit messy. Today, decided to make a wilted spinach salad with hot bacon dressing. Had maybe 1/4 lb of bacon in fridge. I layed it out in big non-stick skillet, set it on LOW and ... just walked away. Turned it over once and pretty much just let it go on a VERY low sizzle... coulda been 30-45 minutes. Pretty much NO spatters & result was crispy pieces ready to crumble. Thinking a big old cast iron skillet would thing it was at a SPA to enjoy all that bacon grease for 45 minutes.
Thinking the mess comes from rendering the fat. Once it's pretty much liquid... not much spattering at all.
Have baked it in overn... rack on baking sheet. Another method that needed little attention. And sprinled with raw or brown sugar... bacon CANDY.
Have cooked it in microwave, between layers of paper towels.
And HOW do you like it cooked? Neice & I agree that we don't like it "bendy". We like it just this side of crumbly/crispy.
I prefer oven-baking but NOT on a rack. It stays flatter and renders more evenly and thoroughly when laid directly onto the sheet pan. 375, check at 15 min. Timing depends on thickness and type of cure, those with sweet ingredients being more prone to over-browning sooner. When close to done, I shut off the oven and let the pan stay there until the rashers look right. I pour off and save the fat for cooking. Microwaving renders well, too, but the bacon will be more leathery than crispy. And the fat does not develop the browned flavors of heat-rendered bacon fat (to collect it, instead of paper towels just lay a piece of parchment loosely atop the bacon before nuking it. That prevents spattering.
re: greygarious
+1 on greygarious' method.
I cook it in the oven. I just place it on a rimmed baking sheet. Perfect, crisp, melt in your mouth bliss!
The only time I cook it in a skillet is if I'm camping.
0 -
COLD oven, bacon on a lined sheetpan. Turn oven on to 425, perfect bacon in about 17 minutes,
re: twyst
I do the same thing, but 400 instead and it takes about 20 minutes. ;) Oh, and I don't line my sheet pan, I use a stoneware "bar pan" instead.
re: tzurriz
Yeah lining the dish isnt really necessary, but it makes cleanup a ton easier when you can just roll up all the grease in the foil and throw it away without ever getting the sheet pan dirty!
re: twyst
must have followed the same recipe. Works like a charm
I like my bacon crispy without any drippings plus easy clean-up. So I prefer microwaving in between paper towels.
re: selfportrait93
I'm with you self. Unless I'm doing a lot of bacon--in which case I use a large SS pan--I go for the microwave which gets it nice and crispy with easy clean-up.
I'm a fan of oven, on a rack, except this time of year when you don't want the oven on.
I alternate between just past bendy and crisp enough to be cracklins.

Artist: Keith Whitley
Album: Miscellaneous
Genre: Country
I was sittin' at a table at a little club downtown
Playin' songs on the jukebox and pourin' whiskey down
When I heard a sweet voice saying, would you like some company
And I had to tell her this is just between an old memory and me
All my friends tell me I'm a fool for holding on
I know they're tryin' to help me but I've been a fool too long
I don't want to talk about it so why can't they just let me be
Can't they see this is just between an old memory and me?
I'm not hurtin' anybody as far as I can see
I just need to be alone sometimes
While she goes walking through my mind
I don't want to talk about it so why can't everybody see
This is just between and old memory and me
This is just between her memory and me

Silena River ((S'okay!)) 3/20/2012 #31Skye cringed and averted her eyes, though she knew it was Cecilia's fault. "I didn't-" she began, but thought better of accusing the brutal leader of the threesome. "-I'm sorry! Just...don't hurt me!" |
Zuria Maylin (Geez, poor Skye!) 3/22/2012 #32"Please. Like I could hurt you," Cecilia said, referring to her superiors. |
Silena River ((That's the point.)) 3/22/2012 #33"Like that's stopped you before," Skye muttered almost inaudibly, shaking her head. |
Zuria Maylin (I know, I know, but...you make her seem worse than ALISSA!!! And that should not be POSSIBLE!!!) 3/23/2012 #34Cecilia pulled a knife out of her pocket and pressed it to Skye's neck, ready to run her through with it. "You have anything to say to me?" she demanded. |
Silena River ((Hehe. Yeah, but she's only "Alissa-bad" to Skye. She's nice to everyone else who's an Original.)) 3/23/2012 #35Skye whimpered, but didn't move a muscle. Skye was used to death threats. She got one each week--on a good week. ((There's a spin on Dobby's line.)) "No," she breathed. "Sorry." |
Zuria Maylin (stop killing me.) 3/23/2012 #36 |
Rosie McDonald "I am contacting our supereors, they love to experiment on forgetful rebals!" Annie said evily. 3/23/2012 #37 |
Silena River ((Ha-ha, Zuria.)) 3/23/2012 #38Skye squealed, still rendered immobile by the blade at her throat. "No! I'm sorry, alright? Just...please. Mercy. Pity. Peace." ((Quoting a kid from Beowulf there. The child king whose father was killed, leaving him to be king said that. Can't remember his name, though. Beowulf said he would follow the child because he spoke of mercy, pity, and peace; "Good qualities in a king." Yeah, I DID just have that memorized. Hahahaha.)) |
Rosie McDonald "Stop quoting reader! You know there is consequences to your actions." Ave said while calling their superiors. 3/24/2012 #39 |
Silena River "It was Beowulf," Skye corrected Annie softly, her eyes downcast. "Please don't call them. I'm sorry." 3/24/2012 . Edited 3/24/2012 #40((Your character in this area is Annie, not Avelina. Haha, typo!)) |
Rosie McDonald "They alreadly know, I am just calling him for reasurence." Anie said. (Oopsy) 3/24/2012 #41 |
Zuria Maylin "No need," Cecilia told Annie, hanging up Annie's phone. She turned to Skye. "Watch yourself. Next time, I may just...slip." 3/25/2012 . Edited 3/25/2012 #42(You have no idea how much it kills me to say that to you.) |
Rosie McDonald "Fine then, but no more taking breaks from driving. You are getting back in front of the wheel now." Annie said pulling over for them to switch. 3/25/2012 #43 |
Silena River Skye nodded mutely, rubbing her neck where the cold prick of Cecelia's dagger had been. Opening the car door, Skye climbed out and took her place in the driver's seat. "What's our destination again?" Skye asked timidly, wondering, 'Why the h-e-double-hockey-sticks can't I stand up to these evil little pricks?' 3/25/2012 #44 |
Rosie McDonald " California, that is what our contacts say they are." Annie says climbing into the passengers seat. 3/25/2012 #45 |
Silena River "Oh, alright." Skye started the engine and pulled off the shoulder of the road. 3/25/2012 #46 |
Rosie McDonald "We haven't heard from Alex for a while, I wonder where she is?" Annie asked. 3/25/2012 #47 |
Silena River Skye focused on the road, wondering if she was supposed answer Annie's question. 3/25/2012 #48 |
Rosie McDonald "Well?" Annie asked mostly to make another nasty comment to Skye. 3/25/2012 #49 |
Silena River "Huh?" Skye asked, then gave a start. "Oh, sorry. Uhmm... I don't know." 3/25/2012 #50 |
Rosie McDonald "Well, ok then." Annie said. 3/25/2012 #51 |
Silena River Skye looked back at the road, contemplating her awful time with these so-called "Originals." 'What the heck is wrong with Clones, anyways? I've got to find those people in the daydream....' 3/25/2012 #52 |
Rosie McDonald 'I wonder if we will ever catch those horrible clones!' Annie thought to herself,'if Skye knew what they did to us, how many of us they killed. She would not be so fond of them, she would hate them as much as we do.' 3/25/2012 #53 |
Silena River Skye clenched her jaw, but said nothing. She wondered if Annie could somehow sense her thoughts. 3/25/2012 #54((Which she shouldn't because she can't read minds)) |
Rosie McDonald (Yeah,she was thinking you know.) Annie looked over at Skye and wondered what she truly thought of them. 3/25/2012 #55 |
Silena River ((Right-oh!)) 3/25/2012 #56Skye noticed Annie's glare, but ignored it best she could. Trying to keep her face free of emotions, the frightened girl focused on driving. |
Rosie McDonald Annie wondered if they were ever going to go back to a normal, probably not. 3/25/2012 #57 |
Silena River ((I really have no comment to that. Hahaha. I'm just gonna wait for Zuria on Tuesday morning, probably. Ah well)) 3/25/2012 #58 |

I Can See Clearly Now
BY Michael Fairman
March 23 2009 12:00 AM ET
You had a great on-screen sparring partner in the one and
only Susan Lucci. As Erica Kane, she was always being
confrontational with Reese. How was working with La Lucci?
Oh, it's great working with Susan. She has been so supportive
of me, my being on the show and telling this story. It is fun
to have Reese go up against Erica in scenes. Who better to go
head to head with than the great Erica Kane?
Tamara, you are set to leave Pine Valley and the show
Yes, I am. I do not know when my last air date will be, but I
am wrapping up soon, and I am told there will be a happy ending
for Bianca and Reese.
How was working with Eden as your other half on-screen?
I love Eden. She is my friend and she opened her arms to me
when I came to
All My Children,
and we became fast friends. It was incredible. We would look at
each other at times and hold each other's hands. We were a
bit sad that the whole wedding was not happy, and that her
gorgeous vows were intercut with another section of the show.
Because of that and the fact that Reese kissed Zach the night
before, we just held each other's hands and said,
"Wouldn't it just suck if we didn't like each
other?" And we laughed, and we are so thankful that we
care about one other and respect each other.

NEW YORK (CNNMoney.com) -- Motorola Inc. announced Wednesday that it has filed three complaints against Apple over alleged patent infringements in its popular wireless and mobile devices.
The complaints were filed with the International Trade Commission as well as in the Northern District of Illinois and the Southern District of Florida.
The complaints allege that Apple's (AAPL, Fortune 500) popular iPhone, iPad, iPod Touch and some of its computers infringe on Motorola's (MOT, Fortune 500) patents in the areas of antenna design and other smartphone technologies. According to Motorola, Apple has infringed on 18 patents.
"After Apple's late entry into the telecommunications market, we engaged in lengthy negotiations, but Apple has refused to take a license," said Kirk Dailey, corporate vice president of intellectual property at Motorola Mobility. "We had no choice but to file these complaints to halt Apple's continued infringement. Motorola will continue to take all necessary steps to protect its R&D and intellectual property, which are critical to the company's business."
Representatives from Apple were not immediately available for comment.
According to Motorola, the company has asked the trade commission to issue an order that would bar Apple from importing, selling, marketing or warehousing the products in question.
The suit is the latest in a flurry of mobile patent disputes. On Friday, Microsoft (MSFT, Fortune 500) filed a lawsuit against Motorola, saying the smartphone maker had infringed on nine patents in its Android-based devices.
That suit alleges that Motorola violated patents on essential smartphone functions, including "synchronizing e-mail, calendars and contacts; scheduling meetings; and notifying applications of changes in signal strength and battery power," Microsoft said.
Apple filed a lawsuit in March against HTC, the Taiwanese maker of smartphones, for allegedly infringing on 20 Apple patents related to the iPhone's user interface, underlying architecture and hardware.
And in August, Oracle (ORCL, Fortune 500) sued Google (GOOG, Fortune 500) over what it says are software patent violations in Google's Android mobile operating system.

Damn right...I said so all day yesterday on this board...
our core players were rewarded with their salaries and were given multiple chances to prove their worth and they've failed yet again...Gainey right now, isn't looking to make deals like moving prospects, he wants to change the culture of this team, he wants a new face.
I hope he succeeds, cause those contracts to namely Koivu & Kovalev are going to be hard to move.
I don't see how the core has failed. What's the core? Koivu, Markov, Kovalev? Anyone else?
Most would agree that Koivu and Markov are core-player worthy, and Kovalev a legitimately strong support-core player.
Kovalev and Koivu are each paid roughly market value. Markov's paid below market value.
So given the fact that Montreal has a small core as it is, and we could all agree that they are not spectacular relative to the other cores of the league (though still worthy of being part of the foundation of any franchise), why is it that such a small amount (roughly $10.5m) is being spent on the core?
Why is roughly $6.5m being spent on #5, #6, #8 defensemen? (Dandenault, Bouillon, Niinimaa respectively)
While we value what Johnson has provided, he's earning an awful lot for a mediocre offensive player who provides energy, but not much in the way of grit. Same goes for Bonk.
Samsonov was identified as a core player (according to his salary), but hasn't worked out for a variety of reasons, which means Montreal's added more support scoring when a core player was needed.
Look, my point is that Montreal's core is not bad, it's just small. Teams have two options:
1) Small, elite core, a la Pittsburgh, Tampa Bay, et al.;
2) Larger core, filled with depth and talents that complement eachother, a la Nashville.
I don't believe Kariya or Sullivan are much ahead of Koivu, for example. Nor do I believe Timonen is much better than Markov. The difference is primarily that Nashville has a couple of more core players which allows a player like Hartnell and Radulov to thrive in a specific depth role, whereas Montreal relies on its Hartnell/Radulov equivalents (players like Plekanec, Higgins) to provide a bulk of the offense.
A primary difference is the blueline. Nashville's got a deep, puck-moving defense. Montreal's defense is a weakness in the puck moving department.
Take the example of Detroit: Zetterberg, Datsyuk are the only forwards that have exceptional talent in some way or another. Datsyuk is not an exceptional player on the whole ... he's streaky, soft, suspect defensively and suspect when the going gets rough. Zetterberg is phenomenal, in my view, and a legitimate star. But then Detroit has the likes of Samuelsson and Cleary playing on the second line there, so we can make a claim that Montreal's talent up front is greater than Detroit's.
So why is Detroit better than Montreal?
In part due to Zetterberg, as he's really that good and helps mold their team as a whole, but largely due to the defense. Lidstrom, Kronwall, Lebda, Chelios, D.Markov, Schneider. They can all skate. They can all move the puck. They're all solid, unspectacular defensively and they're efficient.
Montreal's only efficient defenseman is Markov and at times Dandenault. Komisarek's useful, but the rest are average at best in their own zone. Rivet, as much as I like him, is not a puck mover and not a sufficient threat in transition, which makes him an average defenseman. He's worthwhile due to his character, but when there are three defensemen (Komisarek, Rivet, Souray) who are not efficient and they're all offering the same characteristics (character, grit, physical presence), then there's a problem. (And yes, I realize Souray's got a cannon of a shot).
My point is that this
has not failed. Koivu, while he's struggled horribly of late, also played well above his head earlier in the year and played like one of the better Cs in the league for a stretch. He's balancing himself out right now. Kovalev's played below par for himself this year, but we can likely all agree that he's more of a support to a core player than a core player himself, ideally.
The overpayment of depth players, the lack of an additional core forward added into the mix, and the subpar puck movement on the blueline are true causes for this team's return to mediocrity, in my view.
I can't think of another team in the league that relies on 1.5 core forwards to lead a team to the playoffs. Especially if the blueline isn't exceptional.

LG Unveils New Ultra-Stable Chicken Cam
As cell phone companies continue to improve their cameras, users are finding it increasingly easy to take better photos. Aside from resolution and low light capability, most phones now offer some sort of Automatic Image Stabilization. The technology works by either moving the sensor or lens to counteract unwanted movement before the image is converted to digital information.While some companies struggle to communicate how the image stabilization operates, LG has found a hilarious alternative to technical jargon.

So yesterday was the official day of celebration for Winter Solstice. I apologize for missing the specific date but I wanted to pass on my well wishes to all those who celebrate this wonderful, peaceful, accepting holiday/tradition. I didn't know much about the celebration so I did some studying for this post. I hope you find some things in this short essay that you didn't know before and find a new respect for a great holiday with a long, proud history.
May the year to come bring many happy days to everyone. This is a time of celebrating rebirth of the seasons as from now on the days will get longer. The celebration of rebirth during the Winter Solstice is also because it represents the end of one year and the beginning of another, Stonehenge is a perfect marker of this event.
Another extremely interesting site that marks the Solstice is Newgrange, a megalithic structure in Ireland which is estimated to be 5,000 years old which is older then Stonhenge by about 1,000 years and even older then the Great Egyptian Pyramids!!! It is a tomb that lights up with the allignment of the sun of the Winter Solstice and is believed to symbolize the rising of the dead into the Heavens upon the rays of the sun.
Since many didn't survive the cruel winters within the ancient communities, the Solstice was (and still is) a time to reflect on the previous year, celebrate surviving another year, give thanks for the many benefits received and look forward to the arrival of spring, pregnant with possibilities. Is it any wonder then that spring was/is linked to the goddess veneration and celebration of sexuality, what a beautiful and sacred time.
There is a Taoist element to this time of year as well. It can be seen in the East Asian celebration Dongzhi or Toji Festival which celebrates the balance and harmony between dark and light, sun and darkness. It is usually celebrated around 21 December.
These are but just a few of the Winter Solstice type celebrations, it is venerated throughout the world which places it as one of the most popular and widespread holidays of all humanity.
May all realize harmony during this time of year and look forward to a new year of happiness, joy, good health and much love for all people.
~Peace to all beings~

Hi! I found your blog doing research for my essay on the solstice, which you can find by linking through my signature. I did not know that the black and white yin yang symbol evolved from the winter and summer solstice as well.
I found it quite interesting that the circle in Buhhdist tradition and the wreath in the pagan (and now, Christian) celebration of the solstice stem from the same rebirth and renewal message.
Mysterious. We are all as one...
Happy belated solstice back, from one who enjoys the day. - 12:16 PM

this year we celebrated the return of the light with a Yalda meal of fresh fruit, etc... We always mark the solstices in some way.

I love the Yin and Yang symbol. It is so simple yet very profound.
Oneness indeed. It's such a reassuring piece of wisdom.
Thank-you for the well wishes.
What a beautiful way to celebrate the return of light. I am new to celebrating the solstice but I am excited to really honor it. - 12:38 PM
