Abstract. Bioleaching/minerals biooxidation and bioremediation have been widely used commercially for heap/dump bioleaching of secondary copper sulfide ores, sulfidic-refractory gold concentrates and treatment of acid rock drainage. Technical and commercial challenges, identified in this paper, remain for bioleaching of primary sulfides and complex ores. New frontiers for the technology exist in processing massive sulfides, silicate-locked minerals and in the more distant future in-situ leaching. Decommissioning of cyanide heap leach operations and stabilizing mine wastes using biotechnology are opportunities requiring intensive and focused research, development and engineering efforts. Introduction The past decade has been particularly dramatic in view of increasing metal prices to unprecedented high levels followed by an unparalleled event of precipitously declining metal prices, rapid increase in production costs, and the global impacts that these factors have had on the mining sector. The mining industry, however, has always been a boom-and-bust business which exhibits cycles of high and low metal prices. These cycles have a substantial effect on the growth and contraction of the industry. When metal prices decline, costs increase, or both, high-cost mines are usually moth-balled, production is often curtailed, mine plans may be changed to target higher metal grades, expenditures including research and development are often severely cut-back, and lay-offs that include research and engineering personnel are implemented. But do boom-and-bust cycles have an effect on innovations relating to metal recovery and the practice of these innovations? Those of us who research, develop, engineer and apply biohydrometallurgical processes for mine production and metals remediation tend to believe that biotechnical processes have lower capital and operating costs than competitive technologies and therefore should perhaps be more economical to implement during mining down-cycles than other processes. Is this really the case? To test this theory, the prices of two metals gold and copper were plotted against time and superimposed on these graphs are biohydrometallurgical processes for mine production and remediation that have been demonstrated or put into practice. This paper discusses these findings, other motivating factors (drivers) for biohydrometallurgical innovation, technical and commercial challenges of implementing biohydrometallurgy in an industry that is prone to the ups and downs of market economics, and concludes with a discussion of the future of biohydrometallurgy which includes both production and metals remediation technologies. Motivating Factors for Biohydrometallurgical Technologies Figures 1 and 2 illustrate the prices of copper and gold [1, 2, 3, 4], respectively, since biotechnology was first implemented for metals extraction and treatment of metal-contaminated water. These two metals were selected, because they represent the focus of most biometallurgical research, development and application. Included on the graphic representations are significant developments in biometallurgy. It is important to highlight that many of these technologies may have been under development for a decade or more before actually being put into commercial practice.

Fig. 1 and Fig. 2 do suggest that most biohydrometallurgical innovations have been commercially implemented during times of low metal prices, which could be interpreted to mean that the mining industry is more inclined to innovate and apply biohydrometallurgical processes during leaner times. The BioCOP technology was, in fact, demonstrated as the copper price was rapidly increasing. While increasing copper price was unlikely to be the only reason why the technology was not fully commercialized [13], it may have been a contributing factor. Metal prices, of course, are not the only motivating factor for employing biohydrometallurgical processes. Other drivers include: Cost of production. As energy costs have escalated, mining, processing, and environmental costs have substantially increased [14]. Some biohydrometallurgical processes for processing and remediation are less energy intensive than alternative technologies and can potentially reduce costs for the industry. Also, biohydrometallurgical processing methods eliminate Net Smelter Royalties associated with smelting and refining and potential penalty charges associated with smelting feeds with impurities. Sulfuric acid costs can be volatile depending on demand and location [15]; bioleaching/minerals biooxidation can be used in some situations for on-site acid production to eliminate or reduce acid purchases. Exploitation of ore deposits not amenable to conventional processes or otherwise difficult to exploit. One such example is the development of secondary copper sulfide ore deposits, which may be too small or too remote to be economically amenable to making a flotation concentrate either for shipping or onsite smelting. Another example is processing of sulfidic-refractory gold ore properties, located in regions where biooxidation technologies may be more suitable for cost and workforce reasons. A third example is ores deposits with complex mineralogy; such deposits are difficult to treat and biohydrometallurgy may be a viable alternative. Maximizing use of existing capital investment. Many copper operations already have solvent extraction-electrowinning plants that represent a significant investment. Applying bioleaching processes for processing copper sulfides allows for use and expansion of these facilities. Environmental permitting for mining operations can be long and difficult. The use of biohydrometallurgical processes for both mineral processing and treatment of effluents may offer some environmental advantages over more conventional technologies. In some cases bioprocessing is seen as a green technology.

Technical and Commercial Challenges of Implementing Biohydrometallurgy Commercial Challenges. Biohydrometallurgical technologies for mineral processing and metals remediation are developed by mining companies, biotechnology companies, government laboratories, university research scientists and engineers, and mining consultants. The path from laboratory research to commercial application of biohydrometallurgical technologies developed by these various entities has many obstacles and challenges: Time - The time required to research, develop, pilot and commercialize the technology can be 10 years to as long as two decades. This calls for long-term commitment of the scientists and engineers developing the technology, by management in the case of industry, and of finances. Site specificity - Bioprocessing and metals bioremediation technologies are usually site specific. Therefore, nearly every process that is developed requires on-site piloting and perhaps even large-scale demonstration. On-site pilot trials and demonstration-scale testing can be very costly and time-consuming. Long-term commitments of time, money, facilities, personnel and management are required not only by the mining company whose property and resources will be used, but also for the company or institution whose technology is being evaluated. Competitiveness - Biohydrometallurgical processes must compete technically and cost-wise with alternative technologies. In the case of bioleaching/minerals biooxidation, the technology must compete with making and selling a concentrate, pressure oxidation, roasting/smelting, and emerging chemical leaching processes. Metals bioremediation must compete with alkaline precipitation a process that has long been used by the industry and other technologies, such as ion exchange and reverse osmosis, which are used by the industry under certain circumstances. There are a number of factors that the mining industry must consider when selecting a processing or remediation technology. Bio-processes may not always meet all of the criteria. Risk - New technologies whether they are bioprocesses or physical/chemical processes have a modest chance of success. The risks involved in commercially exploiting new technologies have been detailed by others [16, 17]. Technology failures are not only financially costly, but can harm the reputations of individuals, institutions which developed the technology, engineering companies involved in final design and commissioning and the mining company itself. Capital investment - New technologies often require a substantial capital investment, since new unit processes may be required on the front-end and the back-end of the actual biohydrometallurgical process. For example, the 20,000 tonne per annum BioCOP demonstration plant at the Chuquicamata Mine in Chile was estimated at US$60 million [18]. A full-scale plant would, of course, have cost substantially more. Intellectual property Patents are usually used to protect intellectual property associated with new technologies. Mining companies often patent bioprocesses to protect their own use of technology they have developed. Entrepreneurial companies patent technologies in order to raise financing and to protect business interests. Some universities and government or quasi-government agencies also patent biohydrometallurgical processes to potentially exploit developments through licensing arrangements. Mining companies, however, often balk at paying licensing fees or royalties for technology. There are several reasons for this: changes in ore type may preclude future need for the technology; newer processes could
negate the value of the technology; licensing fees may stifle business deals the mining company may undertake; mining companies may be reluctant to open production logs a move that may be necessary to assess licensing fees; quite often new technology is a singular unit process whose success is largely dependent on upfront unit processes that are part of conventional processing; and there may be a certain amount of not invented here mentality at play. Licensing fees or royalties for biometallurgical processes can be difficult to negotiate particularly for metal production, because there are many factors affecting production that are beyond the control of the technology owner. Process guarantees The mine owner may request process guarantees for mine production and environmental biotechnologies. Guarantees can be very complicated to devise particularly for processes such as heap bioleaching or environmental cleanup, because there are many variables that cant be adequately monitored or controlled. There is also a certain futility in technology guarantees, because the mine owner, in fact, owns the risk. The mining company has invested heavily in the process, controls the quality of the feed to the plant whether it is a mineral processing or environmental technology, and is in command of how the process is operated. Availability of skilled engineers and scientists Dramatic declines in metal prices nearly always result in the mining industry cutting-back on research and development, which means lay-offs of experienced scientists and engineers who may have worked decades on biohydrometallurgical processes. Industry is not the only sector subject to the loss of talent. Declining metal prices and a sluggish economy usually result in less money for R&D at universities and government laboratories. Mining schools may even cut-back curriculum and professors, who have long been involved in biohydrometallurgical research. Such cut-backs in talent and R&D can have a serious impact when the economy recovers and decisions are made to consider biohydrometallurgy as a processing option. Talent is no longer available and corporate memory is lost. It may take years before less experienced scientists and engineers can become acquainted with techniques and historical developments and constructively contribute to the state-of-the-art of the technology.
Technical Challenges. The commercial challenges of implementing biohydrometallurgy should not discourage research and development. Despite the boom-and-bust cycles of mining and metal industries, companies do rely on innovation to remain competitive, decrease production and environmental costs, confidently process complex ores, surmount environmental permitting issues and maximize investment. Some of the technical challenges and opportunities to be addressed by research and development are discussed: Heap leaching of primary sulfide minerals. Progress has been made recently in the heap bioleaching of chalcopyrite [19], but more research and development are necessary to fully understand the conditions under which primary sulfides are leached, how to achieve the conditions necessary for the bioleaching to occur and how to successfully engineer the heaps to maintain the necessary conditions. A more fundamental understanding of the slightly reducing conditions that can occur with the use of thermophiles is needed and particularly in relation to how these conditions correlate with the dissolution of chalcopyrite and other primary copper sulfide minerals. Heap bioleach model development, integration, and validation. There have been mathematical models developed for various heap leaching aspects such as hydrology and heat balance, however, more robust modeling is needed for the microbial aspects of heap leaching. To fully exploit the value of heap modeling, the models must be integrated and validated using data from existing commercial-scale operations. This effort not only
requires a team effort by researchers and engineers, but also the commitment by industry to support the effort by providing information on heaps. Some of the information necessary to validate models will require heap leach data that are currently not collected. Better understanding of secondary copper sulfide heap leaching. Although crushed ore heap leaching of secondary copper sulfides has been widely used for over a decade, there are still some production issues. Some specific technical questions follow: o How long does it take for the microbial population to develop in the heap when the source of the organisms is the raffinate and natural development in the stacked ore? o Would inoculation of the ore be of any benefit? o Is aeration necessary during the entire leach period and what aeration rate is really needed? o Why does the temperature in most secondary copper heap leach operations remain quite cool? Is this a result of slow oxidation of sulfides, the absence of pyrite oxidation, or are there other reasons? o What is occurring at the microbe/mineral interface in terms of ORP, pH, and dissolved metals and how does this relate to what is observed in the bulk solution? Designing heap leaching for complex polymetallic ores, massive sulfide-type ores, and silicate-bound minerals. Heap bioleaching of complex ores can result in conditions considerably different than those observed in secondary copper heap leaching [19, 20]. For example, pyrrhotite, which may be present in complex ores, releases substantial amounts of heat rather quickly and consumes acid, creating operating conditions that must be carefully managed in order to effectively utilize microbial leaching. There has been very limited experience in the bioleaching of massive sulfide deposits. Yet both complex ores and massive sulfide deposits will be exploited in the future and these represent opportunities for bioleaching studies to better prepare us for future use of the technology. Silicate locking of minerals is a significant challenge in many existing mining operations and there are limited options for dealing with the problem. Microorganisms may provide a processing option, but R&D must be closely coupled with economic realities to address this opportunity. In-situ leaching. As the world becomes more urbanized, it is inevitable that more people will live closer to mining operations. Therefore, it is increasingly important that we lessen the footprint of mining. In-situ mining is an approach that could substantially diminish the surface impacts of mining. How to effectively accomplish in-situ mining for many minerals is a huge challenge. Can biological methods somehow be exploited? Can we use microbial technology to contain leach solutions in subsurface deposits? Can we use microbes to increase the permeability of subsurface deposits? Can we use bioleaching? Are there alternative electron acceptors that can be used in the bioleach process? Are there new microbe-based mineral dissolution processes that we should be considering? While in-situ technology for some minerals is far in the future, it is not too soon to begin to develop the fundamentals around such a processing option. Technology for decommissioning cyanide-leached heaps. Rotating biological contactors were developed and used to treat cyanide-, thiocyanate-, and metal-contaminated waters resulting from gold treatment. However, the technology has not been fully developed and evaluated for degrading cyanide and thiocyanate in decommissioned gold heap leaching operations. Biotechnical methods to hasten the decommissioning process could result in substantial cost savings for the industry. Such technology may also be applied
to decontaminate tailings that contain residual gold values locked in sulfide minerals enabling the biooxidation pretreatment of the tailings for re-processing. Technology for stabilizing sulfide-bearing wastes. Insufficient research has been undertaken on using biotechnology for stabilizing sulfidic waste rock and tailings. New thinking is needed to look at microbial products and processes that will prevent acid rock drainage from ever forming.
Biometallurgys Future Biohydrometallurgy for both mine and production and remediation will continue to play an important role in mining and metal industries. Bioleaching lends itself economically and technically to the processing of small deposits that cant support high capital costs, remote deposits where making and shipping concentrates may not be a viable option, low-grade ores that cant be cost-effectively treated by existing technologies, and complex ores. Bioleaching also offers opportunities as an adjunct process for on-site generation of acid for adjunct operations, such as base metal oxide heap leaching. Bioleaching, in some cases, may be more environmentally acceptable than other technologies resulting in faster permitting of operations. Despite its commercial successes there are technical challenges that need to be addressed even for existing applications. While emphasis has been placed largely on the bioleaching of sulfidic-refractory gold concentrates in stirred-tank reactors and on the dump and heap bioleaching of secondary copper sulfide ores, development is underway on heap leaching of lowgrade chalcopyrite ores [21]. Nevertheless there are new opportunities for bioleaching that have yet to be fully realized. Complex polymetallic deposits, massive sulfide deposits and silicate-bound minerals are new frontiers for bioleaching. Even farther in the future is in-situ leaching using microbial processes. While in-situ leaching is used today for the extraction of certain metals for example, uranium the potential of using microorganisms exists. Substantial research, development and engineering efforts must be mounted to develop viable microbial technologies for these opportunities. The commercial challenges described earlier must also be addressed. Metals bioremediation has been extensively exploited for acid rock drainage treatment using passive methods such as constructive anaerobic wetlands and employing more engineered processes [22, 23]. The degradation of cyanide and thiocyanate complexes and the sorption of metals have seemingly not been commercially exploited to such an extent, despite having been successfully engineered and commercially employed in the early 1990s [6]. There are important opportunities for bioremediation in decommissioning cyanide heap leach operations and for the stabilization and isolation of mine wastes. These opportunities require focused research coupled with aggressive development and engineering. References [1] Information on http://www.kitco.com/charts/livegold.html [2] B.

Happily After All: Turning a Blog Into a Webpage: HTML Codes, Part Two
Turning a Blog Into a Webpage: HTML Codes, Part Two
Turning a Blog Into a Webpage, Getting Started, Little Things, Codes Part One
Now it's time for the finishing touch on your webpage. This first part isn't HTML related, and in fact, is quite simple. But you'll need to do it before finishing the project.
Lining up your links in the order you want them to appear, instead of the order you type them
As you write a post, the most recent one shows up first on your blog. For a wedding website, though, you'll want the welcome page to show up first. Or an equivalent. And you'll likely want the links on the left to run in a certain order. You have two options for this. You can type them in starting with what you want last, and ending with the homepage. That's a good strategy, until you decide to add pages after you think you're finished. The other option, is to follow these steps.
Write out all your posts, and don't worry about what order they are in. As you can see, my Welcome page is all the way at the bottom, which means it would show up at the end of the list on the blog.
Then when you're done with that, go into whatever post you would like to show up second. You don't have to worry about the Welcome page because it will have the most recent published date when you're done with this.
Scroll to the bottom of the text box, and you'll see a link that says "Post Options." Click on it, and it will drop down another window of options. At the right, click on the button that says "Set date and time" and then enter a date or time, that is previous to when you wrote the Welcome post. If they were all written at the same time, the easiest thing to do is just enter the previous day's date and a time that is late at night.
As you can see, I put in yesterday's date and 11 PM.
Continue to do this with all of the posts. The next you will do would be the post you'd like to show up third in the links list. Just set it to the previous day's date again, and put in 10PM. Do the same thing with the remaining posts, setting each one back another hour, day, minute, etc. Whichever you'd like to do.
By leaving them in hour increments, it gives you room if you decide to put in another post you'd like to go between the second and third. You can put the time to 10:30 and it will now be the new third link, and all the others will drop below it.
You can see here how the order has changed from the first picture. The posts are now in the order I'd like for them to show up, even though I wrote them in a different order.
And as you go to the website, the Welcome page is the first thing you see.
And on the left, the links are in the right order. But it is still listed by date, and it saves 2009, blog archive, etc. Clearly, you're still looking at a "blog." The next step will take care of that problem.
Turning your blog archive into "website links"
This is the look we're trying to achieve. All you see on the left are the links to take you to another page, just like you see on a typical website.
First thing you need to do is click on the Layout tab and go to Edit HTML. There is a small box at the top of the text box that say "Expand Widget Templates." You need to click on this to get to the section we need to be in.
Now may be a good time to save a copy of your template, if you'd like. Just in case you mess this up horribly, you can upload everything you had saved up until this point. That option is at the top of the page.
Scroll down until you find this section, it's towards the very end.
Of the three highlighted lines, erase the bottom one and replace it with the following:
Under the line you just entered, enter the following:
Where it says 'websiteoflink' replace it with the website of the link you want. For instance, the first one for my website is the Welcome page. So I would go to my website, click on welcome, and in the bar at the top it would say
http://www.happilyafterallwebsite.blogspot.com/2009/11/sample-post.html
It says sample-post instead of welcome because that was the original title of that post. This isn't a huge deal to me, but just be aware that when you change the title of a post, the web address doesn't change.
So I would insert that whole address into the 'websiteoflink' area, but make sure you leave the ' and ' at the beginning and end of it.
Then where it says linkyouwantdisplayed I put Welcome because that is what I want the link on the left hand side to say.
Repeat this for every entry that you have. If you click on the picture it will enlarge and you can see how I put in every post.
At this point, click save and go look at your website. If you did it correctly it should look like this.
The links at the top have replaced the previous words "Blog Archive." At this point you still have the archived links below it. Now we'll remove those.
Go back into the edit HTML section. Scroll a little above the section we just edited. Look for the following:
Now delete the highlighted section. You'll be left with this.
As you can see, the two lines that are highlighted now were in the previous picture, and the space in between is the text you just deleted. Save the template and go look at the website. You should have something that resembles this if you did it correctly.
At this point you can be done if you'd like, your website is now de-blogged. Or you can look out for the final episode of this mini-series. There are just a few more codes to tweak your website, so stay tuned.

The Poems of S.T. Coleridge - Samuel Taylor Coleridge - Google Книги
William Pickering, 1848 - 372 страници
Riot rude
On the Christening of a Friends Child
To William Wordsworth composed on the night
To a Lady offended by a sportive observation
arms beautiful beneath bird breast breath bright cheek child Christabel close cloud dark dear death deep dream earth face fair fancy father fear feel flowers gaze gentle give green hand hath head hear heard heart Heaven hill hope hour lady leave light LINES listen living look Lord loud maid meet mind moon morn mother moved Nature never night o'er once pain passed poem poor rest rise rock rose round seemed shadow Shape ship sigh sight silent sing sleep smile soft song soon soothe soul sound spirit stars stood strange stream sweet swelling tale tears tell thee thine things thou thought tree turned voice wild wind wing wood young youth
Страница 259 - Alas ! they had been friends in youth ; But whispering tongues can poison truth ; And constancy lives in realms above; And life is thorny; and youth is vain; And to be wroth with one we love Doth work like madness in the brain.

Страница 223 - And now the storm-blast came, and he Was tyrannous and strong: He struck with his o'ertaking wings, And chased us south along. With sloping masts and dipping prow, As who pursued with yell and blow Still treads the shadow of his foe, And forward bends his head, The ship drove fast, loud roared the blast, And southward aye we fled. And now there came both mist and snow, And it grew wondrous cold: And ice, mast-high, came floating by, As green as emerald.

Страница 114 - Had thrilled my guileless Genevieve; The music and the doleful tale, The rich and balmy eve; And hopes, and fears that kindle hope, An undistinguishable throng, And gentle wishes long subdued, Subdued and cherished long. She wept with pity and delight, She blushed with love, and virgin shame; And like the murmur of a dream, I heard her breathe my name.

Страница 227 - There passed a weary time. Each throat Was parched, and glazed each eye. A weary time! a weary time! How glazed each weary eye! When looking westward, I beheld A something in the sky. "At first it seemed a little speck, And then it seemed a mist; It moved and moved, and took at last A certain shape, I wist.

Страница 242 - Laughed loud and long, and all the while His eyes went to and fro. "Ha! ha!" quoth he, "full plain I see, The Devil knows how to row." And now, all in my own countree, I stood on the firm land! The Hermit stepped forth from the boat, And scarcely he could stand. "O shrieve me, shrieve me, holy man!" The Hermit crossed his brow. "Say quick," quoth he, "I bid thee say What manner of man art thou?

Squirrel Chatter: Scratch That
Bummer! BUT, it may be better that they just did it on the spot, rather than scheduling it, leaving you to worry and hurt for a few days.
I hope you feel better soon. I've never had a root canal, but I understand they aren't fun. :(
Ugh. Double ugh. But maybe you'd feel that much worse if you hadn't had the weekend away?
Yuck, I had a doozy like that a few years ago. I feel your pain. Mine was in a front tooth. It was horrible. The root canal was actually easier for me than getting a cavity filled. Hope you are feeling better soon. Be glad I think I was in pain for weeks . . . . don't know how I standed it. I had to pay out of pocket and I barely made anything at my first design job out of college. It was for Midwest Outdoors Magazine. The owner is a millionaire but he's VERY cheap.
You are all right. :) I am glad they went ahead and did it right away and that I didn't have time to prepare because it would probably stress me out all week thinking about it. And it was good that I recharged before it happened because I would probably be having a total melt down now instead of just being exhausted.
Root Canals are the worst... and expensive, too! I had a double root canal a couple years ago. Yuck. But I hope your tooth is feeling better!

Oracle BI Enterprise Edition Dashboard & Report Best Practices by Amy Mayer, Kevin McGinley | | NOOK Book (eBook) | Barnes & Noble® B&N Top 100 NY Times Bestsellers
by Amy Mayer, Kevin McGinleyAmy Mayer
BI Consulting Group has developed what is recognized as the most complete, most comprehensive set of dashboard and report design “best practice” standards ever developed, specific to Oracle Business Intelligence (formerly Siebel Business Analytics). These best practices have not been created simply to provide a “standard”, instead they are based on the most important litmus test – what standards actually cause dashboards to be used, and what “best practices” of dashboard and report development provide insight into the business, rather than just reports. This guide was started with the Siebel Analytics 7.8.x platform, before Oracle acquired Siebel. The current version of the guide reflects Oracle’s 10.1.3.3.x releases of Oracle Business Intelligence Enterprise Edition (OBIEE). Expect this guide to be enhanced and revised with subsequent major releases of OBIEE.

Go Sighting #11: Casio Tsumego Calculators
Casio Tsumego Calculators
Back in the 1980s, Casio came out with the TG-1 and TG-2 Electronic Calculator. TG-1 was not a calculator but only a handheld electronic tsumego game. The TG-2 included a calculator as well as all the functions of the TG-1. The TG-2 also has a contrast dial to adjust the contrast of the LCD screen. The above picture is part of a catalogue from 1985.
These gadgets came with the TP-11 Tsumego ROM which held 100 problems (40 beginners, 40 Intermediate, and 20 Advanced) by 3 Japanese pros. Each problem is for Black to solve. You can input the coordinate of the place you would like to place a stone and then either “check” it for a hint or “set” it if you think it is correct. The computer will play the next move or let you know if you are correct “Good” or will tell you to “Try again”. Once solved, you can replay the moves forwards and backwards. You can go to the next problem via the search function (left/right arrows) or via direct input of the level and problem number.
I was fortunate to be able to purchase a TG-2 shown below.
There is an optional ROM called the TP-10 which presents even more problems of the “Best Next Move” (次の一手) variety. I do not have this ROM but have included a picture I found of it below from an auction where the set was bid to quite a sum.

100in12: Straightjacket Mealing
Well, everything was fine until dinner. I overate. I don’t know why I did it. Maybe it was boredom, maybe it was because I didn’t exercise, maybe it’s because it’s almost time for…that time. (ugh) I don’t know. I just felt antsy and hungry and restricted, so I guess I acted out by eating stuff I wouldn’t normally eat? Maybe. The rest of the day was good though. And technically I did have veggies or fruit at every meal, so that goal was accomplished. Vitamins – Check!
Water – 76oz. better than yesterday, that’s for sure! Breakfast:
*oatmeal with blueberries, raspberries, slivered almonds
*sandwich: tzatziki sauce, roasted red pepper, spinach, toasted arnold’s thin
*100 calorie bag of 94% fat free kettle corn popcorn
*cup veggie crunchers Dinner:
*two big tacos: yellow rice, ham, corn, cheese, light sour cream, tortillas (whole wheat high fiber/lowcarb) Okay they were probably more like burritos, and I had two. They were either gigantic tacos or medium size burritos. Either way I ate too much.
Ok, I've gotta know, what are these veggie crunchers you keep mentioning??
veggie crunchers! they are dehydrated veggies coated in some kind of sea salt flavoring. they are addictive. they use green beans, carrots, taro, sweet potato, and zucchini, and they maintain their real shape/color and everything. http://thewwchick.blogspot.com/2009/06/product-review-veggie-crunchers.html

10. It may feel like you are in the middle of a Jules Verne adventure as you descend in to the depths of the world. After a one hundred and fifty meter climb down wooden stairs the visitor to the salt mine will see some amazing sites. About the most astounding in terms of its sheer size and audacity is the Chapel of Saint Kinga. The Polish people have for many centuries been devout Catholics and this was more than just a long term hobby to relieve the boredom of being underground. This was an act of worship.
13. Amazingly, even the chandeliers in the cathedral are made of salt. It was not simply hewn from the ground and then thrown together; however, the process is rather more painstaking for the lighting. After extraction the rock salt was first of all dissolved. It was then reconstituted with the impurities taken out so that it achieved a glass-like finish. The chandeliers are what many visitors think the rest of the cavernous mine will be like as they have a picture in their minds of salt as they would sprinkle on their meals! However, the rock salt occurs naturally in different shades of grey (something like you would expect granite to look like). .
17. Still, that doesn't stop well over one million visitors (mainly from Poland and its eastern European neighbors) from visiting the mine to see, amongst other things, how salt was mined in the past. For safety reasons less than one percent of the mine is open to visitors, but even that is still almost four kilometers in length more than enough to weary the average tourist after an hour or two. The mine was closed for two reasons the low price of salt on the world market made it too expensive to extract here. Also, the mine was slowly flooding another reason why visitors are restricted to certain areas only. The religious carvings are, in reality, what draw many to this mine as much for their amazing verisimilitude as for their Christian aesthetics. The above shows Jesus appearing to the apostles after the crucifixion. He shows the doubter, Saint Thomas, the wounds on his wrists.
19. Another remarkable carving, this time a take on The Last Supper. The work and patience that must have gone into the creation of these sculptures is extraordinary. One wonders what the miners would have thought of their work going on general display? They came to be quite used to it, in fact, even during the mine's busiest period in the nineteenth century. The cream of Europe's thinkers visited the site you can still see many of their names in the old visitors books on display.
22. These reliefs are perhaps among some of the most iconographic works of Christian folk art in the world and really do deserve to be shown. It comes as little surprise to learn that the mine was placed on the original list of UNESCO World Heritage Sites back in 1978. Not all of the work is relief-based. There are many life sized statues that must have taken a considerable amount of time months, perhaps even years to create. Within the confines of the mine there is also much to be learned about the miners from the machinery and tools that they used many of which are on display and are centuries old. A catastrophic flood in 1992 dealt the last blow to commercial salt mining in the area and now the mine functions purely as a tourist attraction. Brine is, however, still extracted from the mine and then evaporated to produce some salt, but hardly on the ancient scale. If this was not done, then the mines would soon become flooded once again.

Hello and welcome to my shop! The ability to sit home and do arts and crafts all day has always been a dream of mine. Well, in reality I could never sit inside ALL day, maybe just rainy days  But I have always wanted to just do what I love and make a living at it. I have been doing arts and crafts all my life. Others include painting murals and faux finishing, making jewelry, and a little bit of knitting. I had seen some Capri Sun bags in the past and I saw one coffee bag purse and then it hit me. With all of the “green awareness” that has come about, I thought “what a great idea” I think I could pull that off.

16 Apr 02 - 18 Jun 12
There was once a King in the Western Highlands whose Queen died, leaving with him a baby daughter.
The Queen had been good and kind and beautiful and the King grieved long and sorely for her; and, indeed, all his subjects in the west country shared his sorrow. But as time went on everyone was agreed that it would be much better for the King as well as for the little Princess that he should take to himself a new Queen. And in due time the King saw that for himself, and he married again.
The new Queen was quite kind to the daughter of the first Queen, even when she had a little daughter of her own. But when the two Princesses were growing up and the Queen saw how much more beautiful the elder girl was than her own daughter, her feelings began to change. And jealousy---the monster with the green eye---came and dwelt in her breast, and caused her to be very cruel to her stepdaughter. She used to beat her very often, and she gave her very little to eat---and by and by she sent her out into the far-away field to herd the sheep. The poor young Princess had no one to help her. She could not appeal to the King, because he was away making war on another King in the Western Isles---and in his absence the Queen had complete authority over his kingdom.
The poor girl used to sit in the far-away field among the sheep, weeping quietly, and thinking how much better off they were than herself. But one member of the flock was sad when he saw her grief, for he loved his gentle shepherdess.
This was an old grey-horned sheep, but for whom she would certainly have starved, for he used to bring her food every day. And it greatly puzzled the cruel Queen to see that, although she gave her stepdaughter no food, she was not wasting away. So the Queen asked the henwife of the Palace---and a wicked creature she was!---to try and find out whether someone was bringing food to the Princess; and the henwife sent her daughter into the far-away field to spy on her. This girl, who was very sly and ugly, had---over and above the usual two eyes of other people---an invisible eye in the back of her head.
All day long she stayed out in the far-away field watching the Princess, who was growing hungrier and hungrier! But she dared not ask the grey-horned sheep for food, in case the henwife's daughter should see.
At last the latter began to yawn widely, and the Princess said to her: "Oh, poor girl, how tired you are! Do lie down and put your head on my knee and I will stroke your hair. And you will have a lovely sleep!"
The henwife's daughter, who was not a bit sleepy but only very bored, said she would do as the Princess proposed. And she laid her head on the Princess's knee and let her stroke her ugly hair. And presently her eyes closed and she pretended to be sleeping.
But her invisible eye was watching, and it saw the Princess beckon gently to the grey-horned sheep; and when the sheep came trotting up with food for her the eye saw that also. So the henwife's daughter went home and told it to the henwife, who told it to the Queen, that the grey-horned sheep was giving food to the Princess.
The Queen was very angry, and she sent the henwife for the Palace butcher, and gave him this order: "Go at once and kill the grey-horned sheep that is in the far-away field. Bring his flesh to be used in the Palace, but leave his skin and his bones in the field as a warning to the rest of the flock."
When the Princess saw the butcher coming she was very much distressed for her friend's sake, but the grey-horned sheep said: "You need not weep because I am going to be killed. Only wait until the butcher has gone away, then gather up my bones and roll them in my skin. You will see that I will come alive again and continue to help you."
And the Princess did what he told her, except that she forgot to put the sheep's trotters into his skin, so when he came alive again he was lame! But in spite of that he hobbled to meet her every day with food. And the Princess grew prettier and prettier, and the Queen grew more and more jealous for her own daughter.
One day a handsome young Prince from the southwest of Scotland came to hunt in the Western Highlands, and he saw a beautiful young girl herding sheep in a field. He stopped, enchanted, and he said to the nobles who were with him: "Find out who that beautiful girl is. I have never seen anyone so lovely!" When the nobles asked the country people about her they were told that the lovely shepherdess was a Princess whose stepmother was very unkind to her; and that while everyone was sorry for her, no one had the right to interfere with her stepmother's treatment of her.
By this time the young Prince had fallen deeply in love with the Princess, and he came again and again to the far-away field where she was herding, in order to look at her and talk to her. He told his nobles that---stepmother or no stepmother---he had made up his mind to marry her!
When it came to the knowledge of the henwife that a rich and handsome Prince was courting the Princess, she ran and told the Queen, who, furious at the idea of her stepdaughter making a good match, dcclared that the affair must be stoppedforthwith. So the Princess was ordered to leave the far-away field, and the Queen sent her own daughter there in place of her. She hoped that the Prince might prefer her to her stepsister---which, of course, was absurd!
She sent her stepdaughter to work as a servant in the Palace kitchen, and she gave her clothes of the servants to wear. The Princess missed the fresh air of the fields very badly, and perhaps she missed the Prince also ! Anyhow, she took every chance of stealing out for a little while into the fresh evening air, and she generally found the Prince waiting on the chance of seeing her.
One day he brought her a present---a pair of beautiful golden shoes, which fitted her dainty feet to perfection. She was so pleased with them---and with their giver--- that she stayed longer than usual with him; and when she realized how time had passed she took fright and started to run back to the Palace as quickly as possible. In her haste she dropped one of her golden shoes, and she was afraid to wait to pick it up. So the Prince picked up the little golden shoe and he ran after her; butwhen he reached the Palace the greatgate was closed. On the following day he took the golden shoe with him and went boldly to the Palace. He was just about to knock on the gate when it opened to let the Queen come out.
"Well?" she said graciously to the handsome young man. "Well, who are you, and what do you want?"
Showing her the little olden shoe in his hand he said to her: "Do you see this shoe? Its fellow is already within your gates, and I will marry the one whose foot it fits."
The Queen did a bit of quick thinking, and then--- taking the shoe from his hand---she said to the Prince: "Come along into the Palace then, and I shall help you to find the one whose foot this shoe will fit."
She led him indoors, and after inviting him to wait in one of the reception rooms she ran to the kitchen. There her stepdaughter was cooking the dinner, and the Queen hustled her into a curious sort of niche at the back of the fire-place and told her that on no account was she to come out until she was given permission to do so.
Then she sent for her own daughter, and when she came the Queen told her to try on the little golden shoe.
"Oh mother!" the girl said, "I could never wear this shoe. It is far too small! No one except my sister has such tiny feet!"
"Stuff and nonsense!" the Queen said angrily. "Are you going to allow a little discomfort to stand in your own light ? You must put on this shoe!"
And she called the henwife to come in, saying to her: "My daughter is to get that shoe on as quickly as possible. If the shoe will not fit the foot, make the foot fit the shoe!"
So the henwife seized the younger Princess's foot, and, regardless of her cries, she cut off the points of her toes and succeeded in thrusting her foot into the golden shoe.
"There you are!" she said. "It is a perfect fit!"
And the Queen went and fetched the Prince, saying to him: "Here is your bride ! See how perfectly the shoe fits her!"
The poor Prince was naturally much taken aback at this turn of affairs ! He had not imagined that there could be another foot in the whole world small enough to wear the little golden shoe! He did not know what to do, for he had definitely told the Queen that he would marry the one whose foot the shoe would fit---and there was no sign anywhere of his shepherdess.
The Queen insisted on sending out invitations to the Prince's wedding with her daughter, which she decided was to take place on the following day. The Prince could not sleep all night for perplexity, and when morning came the wedding guests began to arrive, and there seemed to be no escape for him! Soon a large and brilliant company was assembled; and the priest was just about to begin the marriage service when a bird came and alighted on the window sill, and said: "The blood's in the shoe, and the pretty foot's in the niche at the back of the fire!"
"What is that bird saying?" the young bridegroom asked.
"Never mind the bird---a horrid, beaky, lying creature!" replied the Queen. "Let the wedding go on!"
But, though she tried to chase it away, the bird returned again and yet again to the window sill; and the third time the Prince said: "I must hear what this bird is trying to tell us." And he went to the window, where he heard the bird say plainly, " The blood's in the shoe, and the pretty foot's in the niche at the back of the fire."
Then he turned to the Queen and said: "I am going to find out what he means by the niche at the back of the fire." And he left the room, to the chagrin of the Queen and the amazement of all the guests.
Room after room of the Palace he searched without success, but when he came to the kitchen he found the niche at the back of the fire, and standing in it, with a little golden shoe on one foot, was his beautiful shepherdess!
The Queen stamped and raged at the failure of her scheming, and she was still more angry when her own daughter---who had suffered agony when her toes were cut---kicked off the golden shoe that she wore, and said: "There you are! Take it away! I cannot bear it any longer."
And indeed it was little wonder that she wanted to get rid of the shoe, for it was full of blood!
The Prince's servants took and cleaned all the blood off it, and it slipped sweetly over the elder Princess's foot alongside of its fellow.
Never had such beautiful little feet been seen, and the Prince knelt down and kissed first one little golden shoe and then the other. Then, rising, he took the Princess by the hand and said:
"Thanks to the bird, I have found in the niche at the back of the fire my beautiful Princess with the dainty feet; there is now no blood in the shoes of gold!"
He took her away to his kingdom in the south-west, and there they were married and lived happily ever after. And the Princess always wore golden shoes.

Dishing Up Delights: Vaca Frita and Croquetas de Jamon
One of the first things I decided on making when Raul and I chose a Cuban theme for the party was vaca frita. Vaca frita literally means fried cow. Basically what it is is steak that has been boiled with flavorful spices and then fried to tasty deliciousness. Well since I was serving some other heavy foods at the party, I wanted to find a way to lighten things up. Luckily this had already been done for me. Although this recipe takes some time, most of it is inactive time and you can get to work on the other things you will be serving with this. In my case, it was cilantro rice and Cuban-style beans which were really a great accompaniment to this meat.
As you can tell, this menu was pretty meat heavy, but there were some vegetarian options including the recipes I shared yesterday. Another meat option I served were ham croquetas. A few months ago I made coxinha which I guess are technically Brazilian, but I wanted to make something similar, but with less work. I found this easy recipe for croquetas so I cooked some up. They were so good and crispy on the outside and creamy and full of hammy tastiness on the inside. One of the best things is that you can make the mix the night before and then fry them up on the day of the party.
4 pounds flank steak, cubed
5 medium-sized yellow onions, three halved, two chopped
Place the steak, water, onion halves, bay leaf and salt in a large pot and set over medium-high heat. Once the water comes to a boil, cover and reduce heat to medium. Simmer the steak for 45 minutes – 1 hour, or until tender.
Remove the steak with a slotted spoon and let cool to room temperature. (Run the remaining liquid through a fine mesh sieve and use as a base for soups, or freeze.) Use 2 forks or your hands to pull the steak apart until it resembles pulled pork. Mix the orange and lime juice together in a small bowl or measuring cup.
Preheat your oven’s broiler. Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat and add the olive oil. Once the oil is hot, add the chopped onion and saute until soft and beginning to brown, about 7 minutes. Add the shredded steak and half of orange/lime juice.
Saute for 2 – 3 minutes, then taste and add more orange/lime juice and salt to taste. (I used all of the remaining juice and just a pinch more salt. It is very important to taste for salt because you may not need it)
Spread the contents of the skillet onto a cookie sheet and place under the broiler until the beef and onions crisp and brown, about 10-20 minutes, you may need to stir half way through cooking. Remove and serve with rice and beans if desired.
(From For the Love of Food)
Makes 24-30 croquetas
2 cups (12 ozs.) smoked or baked ham, minced and then ground to paste with a food processor
3 eggs, mixed with 1 tablespoon water
In a large skillet, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the onion and cook until it’s soft. Add the 1/4 cup of flour to the butter and onions and whisk in the pan. Gradually add the evaporated milk; cook over medium heat, stirring occasionally or until the mixture comes just to a boil and is thick and creamy. Add the ground ham, parsley, wine, pepper and nutmeg; mix well. Cook for 4 to 5 minutes over low heat. Taste the ham mixture. It should be salty enough, but if not, add some salt to taste.
Pour the ham mixture into an 8 inch square baking pan. Cover the pan with plastic wrap and let cool in the refrigerator for 30 to 45 minutes so that it will solidify a bit and be easier to work with. This can also be done overnight.
Beat the eggs with water in a small mixing bowl until frothy. Combine the bread crumbs and flour and place in a second wide bowl or plate. Divide the ham mixture in the pan by cutting it into thirds crosswise and in eights lengthwise. Shape into logs that are about 1 1/2 inches long and 3/4-inch wide.
Dip the croquetas into egg and water mixture and then roll in the crumb mixture until evenly coated. Place croquetas back in the pan and cover with plastic wrap. Refrigerate for 30 minutes.
In the mean time, heat the oil in a large cast iron pan so the heat is at 177°C (350°F). Fry croquetas for 2 minutes or until golden brown. Drain on paper towels. Serve the croquetas warm.

the food you made looks delish.
Your food looks beautiful but the ham croquettes really caught my eye. I'm really tempted to put my diet aside and give these a try.
I WANT those ham croquetas! I think I could have gobbled up a whole bowl of them! :)
Josh LOVES flank steak- I know he'd be a huge fan of the Vaca Frita.
I can just imagine the vaca frita in a sandwich with some melted queso or monterry jack. Yum!!!!!
i love croquettes of any kind! your jamon croquettes look scrumptious!!! sounds like a tasty party
Esi, oh the shame! You're making me drool...
I love Cuban food, but I have yet to try making it at home. Thanks for the inspiration!
Those croquetas look seriously good.
Starving right now and wishing I could tuck into a bit of both. My guys would inhale either. Carnivores. Seriously.
Both of those recipes sound fantastic! Brilliant textures.

Seeking the Path to Financial Nirvana Archive for the ‘Uncategorized’ Category
Once you’ve gathered all the paperwork you have, take a few moments to take mental stock, brainstorm or do some research to answer a few questions: Do you have all of your income statements? What IRS and state tax forms do you need? What is your filing status? What sort of deductions are you entitled to? Will you e-file or mail your return? Should you hire a tax professional? Is there anything you need that is not physically represented in your pile of “stuff”? Answering these questions will likely lead to other questions that are more relevant to your situation. Being able to address these issue during the planning stage will save a lot of time and trouble later on during the process.
Now comes the real substantial part of doing your taxes; crunching the numbers and filling in the forms to determine your tax refund/liability. The steps you’ve taken to this point should greatly ease the process. Be sure to take your time. Rushing only leads to mistakes that can increase the likelihood of an audit. Double check the numbers, make sure you enter your social security number correctly, and remember to sign and date your return. If possible, have a fresh set of eyes glance at your return to help catch any obvious errors.By now you should know what your tax refund or liability is. If you are getting a refund, seriously consider using direct deposit. You will get your money in a matter of days and it means less work and hassle for you. If you owe money, make your check payable to the “United States Treasury” and include your social security number. If you cannot pay your tax bill, don’t panic. There are options. Just be sure to file your return and send whatever you can towards what you owe. I will cover this issue in depth in an upcoming post.
