This study examined the effects of grapefruit juice on the new P2Y12 inhibitor ticagrelor, which is a substrate of CYP3A4 and P-glycoprotein.
In a randomized crossover study, 10 healthy volunteers ingested 200 ml of grapefruit juice or water thrice daily for 4 days. On day 3, they ingested a single 90 mg dose of ticagrelor.
Grapefruit juice increased ticagrelor geometric mean peak plasma concentration (Cmax) to 165% (95% confidence interval 147, 184%) and area under the concentration–time curve (AUC(0,∞)) to 221% of control (95% confidence interval 200, 245%). The Cmax and AUC(0,34 h) (P < 0.05) but not the AUC(0,∞) of the active metabolite C12490XX were decreased significantly. Grapefruit juice had a minor effect on ticagrelor elimination half-life prolonging it from 6.7 to 7.2 h (P = 0.036). In good correlation with the elevated plasma ticagrelor concentrations, grapefruit juice enhanced the antiplatelet effect of ticagrelor, assessed with VerifyNow® and Multiplate® methods, and postponed the recovery of platelet reactivity.
Grapefruit juice increased ticagrelor exposure by more than two-fold, leading to an enhanced and prolonged ticagrelor antiplatelet effect. The grapefruit juice–ticagrelor interaction seems clinically important and indicates the significance of intestinal metabolism to ticagrelor pharmacokinetics.

7 pieces of advice for the patient investor: Mayers
Forget Mad Money or Fast Money. It's patience and long term thinking that wins the investing race, says author Jeremy Siegel.
|Report an Error
Share via Email
I've never been a fan of investment shows like CNBC's Mad Money and Fast Money, where the tips come hard and fast in a loud voice with lots of gestures and the phrase 'long-term' seems to imply something that might last until the end of the week.
These shows are a form of theatre — investment advice as entertainment. There's nothing wrong with that as long as you view it that way. Even the Mad Money website warns you not to treat anything host Jim Cramer says as anything other than an opinion and not an inducement to buy.
There are far better places to turn for investing advice. Among these are books that stand the test of time. One volume that deserves a place on the shelf has the unsexy title of Stocks for the Long Run.The book is written by Jeremy Siegel, a finance professor at the University of Pennsylvania's Wharton School of Business and was first published 20 years ago.
The fifth edition (McGraw Hill, $41.95) came out recently — while you can find earlier editions online free, the latest incorporates the market crash of 2008 and 2009, the worst since the Great Depression and a section on emerging markets such as China and India. Among its many endorsements is one from Cramer, while The Washington Post calls the book one of the 10 best investment books of all time.
Siegel argues that the stock market is the best place to put your money despite its risk, volatility and unpredictability. He reviewed 200 years of data and found that U.S. shares have returned 6.5 per cent to 7.5 per cent a year, after inflation, throughout that period. Within that there are huge fluctuations — like the 2008 crash — so the longer your horizon the better.
Related: 10 key investing rules
Siegel advises starting as soon as you can, go long stocks and hang on, persuading one reviewer to call the book, the 'buy and hold' bible. He's not a fan of mutual funds, seeing index funds and exchange traded funds (ETFs) as better bets.
The book looks at war and peace — stocks do well in both, though inflation tends to be higher during wartime; big market moves — less than one in four can be linked to a major political or economic event; and finds that a Democrat in the White House is better for your investments than a Republican — though many think it's the reverse.
One chapter looks at calendar anomalies including the January Effect which, over a century, has seen small companies outperform large ones in January. A variation says that as goes January, so goes the year — but not always. September and October are the worst months and for some reason investors love Fridays, but not Mondays — maybe because they've had time to think things over during the weekend.
Siegel admits it is hard to be cool and level-headed when the world seems to be collapsing, because "we are all vulnerable to emotional forces that can lead us astray." They include tips and get-rich-quick stories, acting on hunches and thinking you're smarter than everyone else.
"Those who keep their focus are far more likely to emerge as successful investors," he says.
Here are his seven best pieces of advice:
1. Be realistic: If stocks have returned between 6 and 7 per cent after inflation over the last 200 years, you can't consistently expect more. In the current environment, probably less.
2. Think long term: Returns are more stable the farther out you go, because they smooth out short term fluctuations.
3. Buy low-cost index funds: If you're not confident in your ability to choose stocks, buy an index. By matching the market year after year, you'll be near the top of the pack when long term returns are tallied. Indexes, such as the S&P 500 "have outperformed nearly two out of three mutual funds since 1971," he says.
4. Go international: Put a third of your savings outside North America, including emerging markets, "a must in today's global economy."
5. Look for dividends: Stocks with lower price to earnings ratios and higher dividend yields have superior returns and lower risks than so-called growth stocks.
6. Stick to the plan: Set rules to keep your portfolio on track especially if you find yourself giving in to emotion. Most investors who trade frequently have poor returns.
7. Be average: Don't try and beat the market. You can't. "Many dream of buying the next corporate giant in its infancy. But the evidence is overwhelming that investors seeking these winners suffer poor returns."

BOGOTA - Colombia's second-largest rebel group, the National Liberation Army or ELN, have begun exploratory peace talks with the government, days before a tight reelection battle for President Juan Manuel Santos, the presidency said in a statement on Tuesday.
If talks are launched, the ELN will follow in the footsteps of larger rebel group the Revolutionary Armed Forces of Colombia, or FARC, who have been holding negotiations with the government for 19 months.
Here are key facts on the ELN:
* The guerrilla group of about 3,000 fighters, considered a terrorist organisation by the U.S. and EU, was founded in 1964 by radical Catholic priests inspired by the Cuban revolution.
* The ELN, like Colombia's larger and more famous rebel group the FARC, has been weakened by a 10-year U.S.-backed military offensive, which has nearly halved the ELN's number of combatants from an estimated 5,000 in the mid-1990s.
* The group operates largely in Colombia's northeast and frequently attacks oil infrastructure such as pipelines, and has kidnapped energy sector workers.
* The ELN has sought peace before, holding talks in Cuba and Venezuela between 2002 and 2007. Experts say there was a lack of will on both sides to agree on a final peace plan.
* Though government sources now believe the ELN's primary source of income is drug trafficking, ransom and protection payments made up much of the rebel movement's revenue until the mid-2000s.

The struggle of Syrian refugees in Lebanon
Can Kazakhstan become a world power?
20 Apr 2014 17:32 GMT | Politics, Middle East, Algeria
Rebels have killed 14 Algerian soldiers in an ambush during a patrol in the mountains east of Algiers.The attack in Tizi Ouzou on Saturday, 120km east of the capital, was the deadliest in years against the country's security forces.The soldiers were returning from securing polling stations for Thursday's presidential election, which the government said was won by the country's ailing, 77-year-old incumbent, Abdelaziz Bouteflika, in a landslide.
Noone has so far claimed responsibilty for the attack.
Al-Qaeda's north African branch, al-Qaeda in the Islamic Maghreb (AQIM), is active in Algeria.Elias Filali, a journalist reporting from Algiers, told Al Jazeera the attack comes off the back of Bouteflika's election victory at the weekend and seems to have taken place after a lapse in security.
Algeria fought a 10-year civil war against the political party the Islamic Salvation Front (FIS), who supported the introduction of Islamic law in the 1990s, after invalidating a national election. Those fighting against the government are now largely confined to isolated regions, such as the Kabylie mountains.
The Kabylie mountains are populated by Berbers, North Africa's original inhabitants, who speak their own language and have long been disaffected from the central government. The Tizi Ouzou region near Saturday's attack site had the lowest participation rate in the presidential election in the entire country.
New leaders are needed for Algeria's problems to be resolved.

Thanks Sprint. I see the prices of Samsung Epics on Ebay are going higher now that there is a light at the end of a 6 month tunnel. I'm selling this junk to go to a non Sprint and Samsung phone.

Swimming Upstream
Relive the power of hurricanes Katrina and Rita in Swimming Upstream: A Testimony, A Prayer, A Hallelujah, An Incantation. Directed by the formidable Eve Ensler of Vagina Monologues fame, Swimming Upstream is a wonderful collection of tales written by women who lived through the two landmark storms. The episodic Swimming, much like Monologues, tells the story of a community through the stories of individuals, including an ex-showgirl from Las Vegas, a gospel singer and an adolescent moviemaker. Things round here aint nothing like they was before, declares one woman onstage; the rest of the cast chimes in in agreement.
See why the Atlanta Journal-Constitution called Swimming Upstream the poetic equivalent of a breached levee, and why Variety said it resembles an engaging church event complete with gospel songs, testimonies and hand-clapping redemption. 7:30 p.m. Alley Theatre, 615 Texas.

Norman "Tom" Inglis Major, 91
WWII veteran, flight instructor, construction engineer
Norman "Tom" Inglis Major, 91, of Roscoe, formerly of Mount Prospect and River Forest, died on Feb. 6, 2013 from natural causes at Beloit Memorial Hospital. Born on March 15, 1921, he graduated from Oak Park and River Forest High School in 1939 and attended Purdue University where he studied engineering. Following his time at Purdue, he joined the Army Air Force Reserves and was accepted in the War Training Services (WTS) program as a pilot and ultimately flight instructor, where his role included primary training and screening of flight cadets for the military.
Upon completion of two years in the WTS program and two years' active duty stateside, he left the military and engaged in an extended freelance career that included flight instructing, aviation charter, and crop-dusting, where he followed the cotton crop across the South.
In 1957, he changed careers and joined the construction industry as a project engineer and estimator and continued to work as a part-time flight instructor over the next 30 years. During the balance of his career, he worked for a number of general contractors, with projects ranging from roads and other infrastructure to the building of the Billy Graham Center in Wheaton and Water Tower Place in Chicago.
He was a longstanding member of St. John Episcopal Church in Mt. Prospect. One of his favorite hymns was "Amazing Grace" and his favorite scripture was John 3:16.
Tom Inglis Major is survived by his children, Mary Anderson, Rita Major, Catherine (John) Cichon, and John (Glynette) Major; 15 grandchildren; and six great-grandchildren. He was preceded in death by his wife of 59 years, Bertha "Bea" M. Major, and his son-in-law, Tom Anderson.
A funeral service was held on Feb. 10 at Forest Home Cemetery in Forest Park. Arrangements were handled by Honquest Family Funeral Home. To share a memory or express condolences, visit www.honquestfh.com.

As with all testosterone products, SUSTOR 250 is a strong anabolic Tiratricol (T3) with pronounced androgenic activity. It is most commonly used as a bulking drug, providing exceptional gains in strength and muscle mass. Although it Tiratricol (T3) does convert to estrogen, as is the nature of testosterone, this injectable is noted as being slightly Tiratricol (T3) more tolerable than cypionate or enanthate. As stated throughout this book, such observations are only issues of timing however. With Sustanon, blood levels of testosterone are building more slowly, so side effects
Molecular Basis for Efficacy
Divide up your calculated total daily carbohydrate requirements over the course of your waking hours and Tiratricol (T3) consume frequent carbohydrate meals throughout the day. For example, if you require Tiratricol (T3) 4,000 calories per day, you might eat six meals of 650-700 Calories at 2-3 hour intervals.

At one time oxandrolone was also looked at as a possible drug for those suffering Tiratricol (T3) from disorders of high cholesterol or triglycerides. Early studies showed it to be capable of lowering total cholesterol and triglyceride Tiratricol (T3) values in certain types of hyperlipidemic patients, which initially this was thought to signify potential for Tiratricol (T3) this drug as a hypo-lipid (lipid lowering) agent. With further investigation we find however that while use of this drug can be linked to a lowering of total cholesterol values, it is such that a redistribution in

Many athletes who use Clenbuterol claim that it promotes dramatic strength increases and a very noticeable reduction in Tiratricol (T3) body fat and weight loss.
Testosterone is highly versatile and should be considered the "base" Tiratricol (T3) of anabolic/androgenic steroid cycles because of its muscle building potential as well as for the fact that it prevents the loss of sex drive that sometime affects those who neglect to use it with other HPTA suppressive
Women should not use Dianabol because, due Tiratricol (T3) to its distinet androgenic component, considerable virilization symptoms can occur.

The third reason which speaks well for an intake of Oxandrolone is that even Tiratricol (T3) in a very high dosage this compound does not influence the body's own testosterone production. To make this clear: Oxandrolone does not suppress the body's own hormone production. The reason is that it does not have a negative

World wide Deca is one of the most popular injectable Tiratricol (T3) steroids. It's popularity is likely due to the fact that Deca exhibits significant anabolic effects Tiratricol (T3) with minimal androgenic side effects.
by Bill Roberts - One obvious difference Tiratricol (T3) between Winstrol Depot and other injectables is that it is not esterified, being sold as aqueous stanozolol suspension. (It should not be called water-soluble: Tiratricol (T3) virtually none of it is dissolved in the water.) This means that it does not have a classical half-life, where at time x the level is Ð
As a general rule, always tell your doctor if you are taking or have recently taken Tiratricol (T3) any other medicine, even those not prescribed, because occasionally they might interact. This is particularly important Tiratricol (T3) if you are treated with nitrates as you should not take Cialis ® if you are taking these medicines. Do not take Cialis ® with other medicines if your doctor tells
It appears to cause less inhibition Tiratricol (T3) than Deca or testosterone for any given degree of anabolic effect, perhaps because of low CNS activity, lack of conversion to Tiratricol (T3) DHT, and lack of aromatization to estrogen. Unlike Deca, it is not metabolically deactivated by 5a-reductase and therefore is not as kind to the skin and hair as that drug. However, when used by itself at modest

The use of Nolvadex may also cause other side effects not listed above to occur. If you notice any other effects,

Testosterone is the most Tiratricol (T3) powerful compound there is, so obviously its perfectly fine to use it by itself. With Tiratricol (T3) a long-acting ester like Enanthate doses of 500-1000 mg per week are used with very clear results over a 10 week period. If you've ever seen a man swell Tiratricol (T3) up with sheer size, then testosterone was the cause of it. But testosterone is nonetheless often stacked. Due to the high Tiratricol (T3) occurrence of side-effects, people will usually split up a stack in testosterone and a milder component in order to obtain
Novaquimaca: Tiratricol (T3) Deposteron (Brazil) - 100 mg/ml
It is also important to remember that endogenous Testosterone production Tiratricol (T3) is likely to be suppressed after a cycle of Testosterone enanthate. When this occurs, Tiratricol (T3) one runs the risk of losing muscle mass once the steroid is discontinued. HCG and/or Clomid are in most cases considered to be a necessity, used effectively to restore natural Testosterone production
By minimizing the production of DHT, we should greatly reduce many of these harsh Tiratricol (T3) side effects and make our testosterone cycles more comfortable. In many instances, Proscar/Propecia Tiratricol (T3) can allow the athlete the use of steroid compounds (testosterone esters such as cypionate, enanthate, Sustanon etc.), Halotestin and methyltestosterone Tiratricol (T3) with much less androgenic side activity.

PRODUCT NAME: Tirtricol (T3)
SUBSTANCE: Tirtricol (T3)
CONTENT: 50 x 1mg tablets
MANUFACTURER: Genesis Meds
Tiratricol is a naturally occurring metabolite of the endogenous thyroid hormone triodothyronine (T-3). The medical use for thyroid preparations is for the treatment of thyroid dysfunction and obesity. The thyroid gland in fact produces two primary hormones, identified as T-3 and T-4 (thyroxine, which Converts to T-3 in the body). Together these structures are the main regulators of the body's metabolism. Tiratricol is a rapidly metabolised form of the T-3 hormone. When administered, this substance should markedly increase the metabolic rate. This is noted by an increase in the conversion rate of carbohydrates, proteins and fats. This basically means that the body will utilise nutrients at a much faster speed, due to increased cellular activity.
Users find the metabolic boosting effects of tiratricol exceptional for burning off excess body fat. Even without extreme dieting it can lower subcutaneous fat stores, bringing about a harder, more defined look as muscle features become more visible. Without the use of thyroid hormones, the user may need to diet much more to achieve this result. This is often done at the expense of muscle tissue, as it is difficult to retain this while the proper nutrients are being restricted.
Being such a mild product, tiratricol reaches maximum effectiveness at a daily dosage of about 1 mg per 50 lbs of bodyweight. Tiratricol has a half-life of approximately six hours, so the daily dosage should be divided evenly through the day to keep blood levels more uniform. Tiratricol administration will not induce a true replacement metabolic rate like other thyroid hormones and is by far the safest thyroid option. Users are able to increase their metabolic rate only equivalent to the upper range considered normal and acceptable through out administration. This is typically a very significant increase and considered highly effective by most users.
Tiratricol is available from Genesis Meds, 50tbs/bottle, 1mg/tb.

Going for it on fourth-down? Cue the brass section. Missed field goal? Violins, please. Fumble! Cymbals!
Fox is actually considering adding a sound track to its NFL football game coverage after testing the idea by adding snippets of music to its coverage of Seattle-San Francisco on Sunday. Says Fox spokesman Dan Bell: "It's in the experimental stage. But yes, we'd consider doing it again."
Don't laugh. Lots of sports movies — not to mention all those NFL Films shows whose highlights are backed up with heroic scores — make use of music. Actual stadiums, in various sports, go crazy with background music but TV would have a big advantage: Unlike stadiums that have to cut off the tunes just before the action, TV networks could let its melody build to a crescendo as plays unfold.

Zalman F1 240GB SSD Review - Zalman F1 Series 240GBJust days after looking at the 120GB model, Chris is back with the 240GB to see how it performs.
Zalman F1 Series 240GB
The Zalman F1 240GB SSD uses an aluminum housing that is brushed then painted black. Most of the drive's information is on the front label.
On the back you'll find your serial number and Data Migration Software key. The software is on the Zalman website and is a quick download. With it you can easily clone your existing boot drive data to the SSD. At that point you just slide your Zalman F1 in and boot from it seamlessly.
The F1 uses a notebook standard 9.5mm z-height and all of the mounting points are located where they should be. It won't fit in your new ultrabook, but it will fit in all other standard laptops.
The SATA power and data connectors are offset as they should be. The included desktop adapter bracket offsets the drive to the side so the cables are more in line with standard 3.5" form factor cables.
Inside we found a LSI SandForce SF-2281 controller paired with synchronous 25nm NAND from Intel.
This is third generation Intel 25nm NAND. There are 16 chips total with eight on each side.

Japanese probe helps unlock riddle of sun's heat
2007-12-11 0:00
New observations of the Sun gathered by a Japanese probe may finally explain why its outer atmosphere burns white-hot in contrast to its relatively cool surface, scientists said Thursday.
The riddle of the star's white-hot atmosphere, which at several million degrees kelvin is 200 to 300 times warmer than the surface, has intrigued solar physicists for more than 50 years.
The experts tended to fall into two camps, speculating that the extraordinary warmth of the outer atmosphere, or corona, was due to either miniature solar flares or atmospheric (Alfven) waves.
Several research teams had reported evidence of these Alfven waves, which could potentially heat the corona to extreme temperatures by releasing energy as they travel outward from the Sun along magnetic field lines.
But up to this point, scientists had not been able to detect the waves definitively because of the limitations of the available instruments.
The data collected by "Hinode" ("Sunrise" in Japanese), which can precisely measure small changes in the Sun's magnetic field, changed all that.
Images taken by the probe's Solar Optical Telescope suggest that the chromosphere, the region sandwiched between the solar surface and the corona, is riddled with Alven waves, oscillating at 10-25 kilometers per second.
The energy generated by the waves is sufficient to heat the corona which is probably most familiar to the layman as the white band of light that can be seen during the fleeting darkness of a total solar eclipse.
"We don't know how they heat the corona, and we can't be sure where the energy comes from, but we can say the oscillations have enough energy to heat the corona," said Robertus Erdelyi, a professor at the Solar Physics and Space Plasma Research Centre at the University of Sheffield in England.
Erdelyi was the author of an editorial that appeared in the journal Science along with 10 research papers documenting the findings from the Hinode mission.
The satellite, launched September in 2006, has provided scientists with an unprecedented peek at the structures and magnetic fields within the Sun's high-energy plasma, thanks to high-resolution video and images captured by the satellite's spectrometers.
Researchers from NASA and the space agencies of Britain, Europe, Japan, and Norway have been analyzing the data and say it also provides clues to the origins of the solar wind, which blasts through the solar system and buffets planetary atmospheres.
A team lead by Bart de Pontieu of the Lockheed Martin Solar and Astrophysics Laboratory in Palo Alto, California, showed the Alven waves detected by Hinode are vigorous enough to accelerate the solar wind.
Separately, a US team of solar physicists observed record numbers of jets of rapidly moving hot plasma at the Sun's poles, which they believe may contribute to the solar wind.
"The large number of jets, coupled with the high speeds of the outflowing plasma, lends credence to the idea that X-ray jets are a driving force in the creation of the fast solar wind," said Jonathan Cirtain, a solar physicist at NASA's Marshall Space Flight Center in Huntsville, Alabama.
Solar wind can threaten telecommunications, navigation systems and electric power grids on Earth. Scientists hope a better understanding of the wind, could help people plan better for space weather.

Review quote
"A rich selection of excellent graphic literature in this collection of 26 stories that span the heartbreaking to the hilarious to the just plain oddball." --"USA Today" "This year's guest selector, Bechdel, opens with a terrific introduction that digs into the sense of awe felt by many underground vets on comicdom's recent hyperdevelopment... The picks are a typical mix of heavy hitters in top form (Chris Ware, Joe Sacco, Jaime Hernandez, Jeff Smith), younger art-comics darlings (Dash Shaw, Kevin Huizenga), and a nice smattering of talented newcomers." --"Booklist"""Fun Home" creator Bechdel selects 27 pieces for this year's Best American anthology, and though a reader can trace her sensibility in some of the entries . . . it's a pleasure to see many odd, gritty selections . . . This year's Best American is a handsome anthology with more than a few welcome surprises." "--Publishers Weekly""""Another annual cornucopia of graphic narrative (and comic strips). Whether comics were ever striving for cultural legitimacy, they are now struggling with it--even resisting it--though this year's collection suggests that the range of subject, tone and technique continues to expand. Perhaps no other graphic memoirist has achieved greater acclaim than this year's guest editor Bechdel . . . While much of this work is at the cutting edge of contemporary culture, there is a historical perspective to some of the more ambitious pieces . . .The extended, wordless visual epiphany in 'Winter' is stunning . . . David Lasky shows the greatest range . . . Chris Ware's inevitable selection is brilliant. The state of an art that has yet to reach stasis." --"Kirkus Reviews"

Lancashire hotspot: house sales soar as South slumps
Bury enjoys huge rise in transactions while economic crisis strikes London commuter belt
Jonathan Brown
Friday 14 October 2011
A new North-South divide has opened up in the UK's flatlining property market, and this time London and the Home Counties are coming off second-best. Bury, the former Lancashire mill town previously renowned as home of the world's finest black puddings, was yesterday afforded the accolade of being named top hotspot with sales of homes rising 44 per cent year on year.
The research by Halifax found five of the top 10 best-performing areas in England and Wales were in the North. Nine of the bottom 10 areas were in London, the South-east or the South-west including the Prime Minister's constituency, Witney, in Oxfordshire, which recorded a fall in sales of 29 per cent.
Worst of all was Hoddesdon in leafy Hertfordshire, where just 107 homes were sold in the first half of 2011, down 39 per cent on 2010.
The growth in the North reflects a rise in the level of activity at the lower end of the housing market, particularly for flats and inexpensive terraced homes which now account for nearly eight in every 10 properties sold.
Suren Thiru, a Halifax housing economist, said: "The relatively favourable levels of affordability in many of the top-performing Northern towns have helped to support housing market activity in these locations, albeit from historically low levels." News of Bury's elevation came as surprising news to Bryn Weale, an estate agent who has been working in the town for the past 21 years. Although he said its four-bedroom detached homes starting at £220,000, rolling countryside and thriving retail centre were proving popular with commuters from Leeds, Liverpool and Manchester, business could at best be described as "steady".
He said: "We have seen this before in the 1980s and early 1990s but never to the same extent. Then prices fell but there was still a volume of transactions. There are always going to be the deaths and divorces and families will always expand and contract so there will always be an underlying demand but I am prepared to see 2015 go by before we see any major improvement."
The research found transaction levels in the 10 top performing towns in the survey were still 42 per cent lower than a decade ago compared with a national average of 49 per cent from 532,709 in the first half of 2001 to 271,113 in 2011.
And a new study shows that families who cannot afford to move are squeezing into homes they have outgrown. Finance firm LV said one in eight children now live in overcrowded homes while hard-up families were forced to make potentially unsafe modifications to create more space. After decades of overcrowding declining, the trend had now reversed, with the average family losing 11 sq ft of living space in the past three years, the survey of 1,000 households found.

Rok: Brgr Gastropub in Fort Lauderdale Good Enough to Survive Burger Trend
Burger joints live or die on one dish, and this one's a good one.
Photos courteys Rok: Brgr
There's a scene from a 1981 episode of "Little House on the Prairie" (my sister made me watch it) with a man in a white suit, hat, and Fu Manchu goatee who pulls up to the town's restaurant. He proposes turning the place into part of his new chain of fried chicken places. The restaurant's owner laughs the man off her porch, saying he's wasting his time.
Col. Sanders, or at least his spitting image, replies with a smile: "Time will tell. Time will tell."
Of course, he was right in 1981, when every town in America had or was soon getting its own KFC and McDonald's. And he's right again three decades later, when every other new restaurant seems to be a high-end burger joint.
Rok: Brgr in downtown Fort Lauderdale's Himmarshee Village is the newest incarnation of the one-plate concept. And luckily, they make a damn fine burger.
The concept here was to create a space with the feel of a prohibition-era speakeasy, with
the kind of comfort food anybody would want with a pint of something
cold. The look is all exposed brick and leather, with a bar that spans
half the space on one side. Windows open up to Himmarshee, with stools
outside facing inwards.
Lobster corn dogs: damn good after-the-bars close food.
Chef and co-owner Marc Falsetto created a
menu featuring burgers but with a fair share of steaks, mom's meatloaf,
and other comfort foods.
Like all burger joints, the place may
live or die on the meat, and Falsetto has certainly thought out his
"secret blend." He orders certified Black Angus from a supplier in
Nebraska, and his American kobe comes from Mishima Ranch in California.
He grinds it daily.
The Australian burger comes with pineapple, beets, arugula, and a fried egg.
The concept even spans the drink menu:
Martinis come with a blue cheese-stuffed olive wrapped in bacon, and a
pair of cocktails come with a bacon-infused bourbon.
corn dogs ($12 for four) combine lobster meat with a sweet batter more
akin to apple fritters. Outside, they had the texture of the crispy
edges of funnel cake, while inside the batter and the meat melded
together in a crabcake-like texture. That one appetizer answers any
question whether Rok: Brgr can survive the burger joint trend.
The fry trio plate ($10) includes hand-cut fries, truffled numbers, and sweet potato fries as tender as mashed potatoes inside.
include a Mediterranean with wonderfully gamey lamb and cooling taziki,
a Las Olas with gruyere and wagyu, and an Australian with a fried egg
over pineapple and beets.
The beers are cold. The fries are crispy and salty. And the burgers? Yeah, Rok: Brgr is good enough to survive the trend.

I LOVE Companion planting. My cucumbers have never done well, but I don't feel so bad after talking to my Amish neighbors. Both summers I planted they had trouble with theirs as well.
I'll give sunflowers and cucumbers a try now that we are in our new house. It will be fun to watch the ants "herd the aphids"
Speaking of bugs, Braconid wasps are visiting my garden. I was so excited when I saw this on my tomato plant, lol.

I've found that planting cucumber seeds rather than transplants works so much better for me. This is true for any squash & melons, too. I've never tried using sunflowers for support... What a Great idea!
Here's a beginners guide to companion planting to help you understand how it works:

What a great idea. I want to grow cukes to make dill pickles. So I will try this.
I have grown cukes and wrapped them around the outside of tall tomato cages as they grew. I just have a small garden area, and am trying to cram in as much as possible. I have everything in cages, tomatoes and peppers, and the cukes around the outside of the cages, I put them on the back side of my garden where I can reach around them. There is a hill/drop off at the back of my garden to the neighbors yard. I tried cantalope this way twice, but the plants have died off two years in a row. (It was only 3 plants each year) This year I am trying to extend my garden lengthwise, but it will end up with afternoon shade in the new area. Any suggestions for afternoon shade plants that will still provide? I figure some tomatoes might like some afternoon shade, and a late lettuce crop?
Hoping for a decent cucumber harvest this year after 2 disappointing years of them. I have cucumbers already forming but will get some sunflower seed mañana and add to the places already planted and where next batches will go.
Everyone I know including the highly skilled Hmong family who have my favorite farm stand had really awful cukes 2 years running. Even though too bitter to enjoy eating fresh, they made fantastic dills though.
Depending on where you live, afternoon shade can be a great blessing and you can grow just about anything. The sun is beastly here in the afternoons so I have to create shade structures to protect from about noon on even this early in the season this already too hot year.
