I recently ordered a Canon Powershot SD800 IS digital Elkph, installed the battery and camera card. when I press the shutter, the camera makes a sound much like the one year hear when you hit a key at your computer that does not take you anywhere. I tried to look up the proper procedure of getting started, but the basic guide in the use of the camera is in Spanish.

By Tibor Shanto – firstname.lastname@example.com
Every day around the globe thousands if not hundreds of thousands of leads are created. Some are created by nice marketing folks, others by sales, some at trade shows, probably a few on your site, some are inbound, many are outbound, and frankly some are nowhere bound, but there is nothing but hope and blue skies at the point they are created.
But many of these leads never have the opportunity to grow into viable leads, delivering their full potential, evolving into prospects and finally full blown sales. No, many leads are wasted, ignored, sadly forgotten, and like so many before them, end up being another "might have been", the latest addition to a pile of unrealized business cards.
Waste is never good, especially when what's being wasted has real potential. It is especially sad when many sales people are begging or Jonesing for leads. Normally people are careful with a resource in shortage, in this case leads, and the ultimate finished good, sales and customers, sellers should be working leads full out, not wasting them. While leads may be a renewable resource, that's no reason to waste or be casual with them, if you don't want to work them, someone else will. Each of these leads has the opportunity to reward you now, and pay dividends well into the future. So why do people in sales allow, and at times deliberately set out to, waste and squander leads. After all, a lead is a terrible thing to waste.
Some have told me that they are not wasting these leads, but allowing them to "fully develop". Why just last week, during a review with an IT sales rep, he told me that the lead was "not real, they are not looking to buy for another six months." The sales version of the glass half full routine. Where I saw a good runway to build rapport and understanding, he only saw something wasting his time. "What's a good lead?" I asked, "Someone ready to buy now, not next year." I followed up and asked how long his sales cycle normally was, he told me six months. I tried explaining to him, but he insisted that there was no point in engaging with them for another six months.
While you can forgive the stupidity of the above, what is not forgivable, are those know what they have to do but don't do it. Follow up once, twice and then punting, is wasting. But it takes effort to develop and execute a good pursuit plan. On the other hand so does whinging about the quality of leads you get from marketing, I mean how many times can we hear the same story.
Better use of that energy is to develop a plan for maximizing every lead. The plan should take the emotion and guess work out of maximizing a lead. Outlining the specific steps to take in converting a lead to a prospect will take the emotion and the effort out of it. You will be there early, you will do things to build rapport as time moves forward, and you'll be the right person at the right time. Not late because you were were waiting for the perfect time, trying to get that right is a waste of time and leads. And you know what they say, "A Lead Is A Terrible Thing To Waste".

When we thought drag racing can't get more entertaining, this video surfaces.
If drag racing powerful cars gives you the thrills, just imagine how it feels launching a motorcycle that bumps out more power than your average sports car.
While racing their 350 HP Suzukis at Australia's Thunder 400 drag race, Perth, Learmonth and Maurice Allen lined up next to each other to contest in the semi-finals for Round 2 of the event, not knowing they'll both provide one of the most entertaining 400-metre finishes we've seen in quite a while.
In contrast to the usual low 7-second passes, this one lasted for more than a minute, so forget boasting the fastest time as the race quickly transformed into a mad marathon to the finish line. Literally.
After both riders stalled their bikes when the green light flashed, Learmonth had the brilliant idea to start pushing his machine down the line, determining Allen to do the same. With the risk of spoiling the outcome for you, Allen already had quite a big lead, but that didn't stop Learmonth from trying.
The result was clearly obvious, and some could say that Learmonth's effort was in vain; although this video would prove them otherwise.

I can't help but be disgusted with these people, how can any person not realize that being homosexual is totally wrong and perverse. Any LGBT people who read this please, stop what you're doing, it's not too late to come back to God and be forgiven! Paradise awaits those who humble themselves and obey the Lord. God is a farmer, he harvests the grain and puts it in His barn. Then He burns the chaff!

You are right about one thing. God will decide because He already has! Do you understand the word "abomination?" I also, like Peter at #1 pray they repent before it is too late. YHVH is not willing that any should perish but that all come to repentance. T'shuvah now homosexuals. You make YHVH puke.

Dammit, hurtful comments are part of life. As Tom (#7) wrote, "it ain't fair." No, it's not fair, but it comes with the territory, like it or not. We've all made them, and we've all taken the brunt of them. If these wussies insist on parading their sexual proclivities in public, they better grow up and learn to accept that not everyone is going to agree with them. And they better learn to deal with it in a mature manner instead of behaving like spoiled children.

True, you don't dismiss a person because of differences. Homosexuality is an emotional sickness, get help and quit pretending it's ok and it's normal. Deal with the problem instead pretending there is a no problem. I salute those who MK's that have enough courage to call it what it is. Yes, God does condone homosexuality, black and white; it destroys the participants and the society supporting it. Charles, doesn't believe, so research the matter with no less vigor than you would if you were buying a new car.

As a lot of other TB's, I also disagree with homosexual lifestyles. However, I would NEVER be hateful, humiliating etc. Here IS my issue with the LGBT agenda, you don't see heterosexuals have everything but intercourse in public & then SCREAM discrimination from the rooftops when they are corrected. You don't see heterosexuals DEMAND to use the opposite genders dressing/bathroom at restaurants & clothing stores! I could care less what you do in the privacy of your home but, personally, I'm angered by constantly having to give up the rights of my children & family because of a group of people that have the whole country scared to say anything (except supportive, loving, kind, make me puke kind of crap) for fear of being sued! The LGBT people are gonna keep it up & there will be a revolution alright, I don't think they're gonna like it! You are free to live your own life & have your own beliefs but SO AM I!!!!!

I read the Bible in its original Hebrew along with rabbinical commentaries in Aramaic and Hebrew. Every good and G-d fearing Jew knows that it is a sin (actually a bunch of big sins, starting with vanity but not limited to just that one) for us to think that we have the ability to read between the lines on our own. We have rabbis and other learned people who teach us. Most of all a good Jew knows not to make any presumptions about a person's outlook based upon just one post. For example I won't say that you have no better argument than to trot out a personal insult directed at me. I will just leave that alone. For example I will not say that you are the one who needs help because then I would be judging you as you have judged me. And I surely will not say that you a creation of G-d are evil and that you should repent from your evil!!! I will not do any such thing Instead I will pray to G-d in Heaven and ask Him/Her (in Judaism G-d has both a male and female aspect) to bring you to the light of true understanding! Mostly He/She should bring you to respect of self so that then you can respect your fellow man instead of sending out insults.

IILM Plans First Islamic Dollar Bill Sale of Up to $1 Billion
International Islamic Liquidity Management Corp. plans to sell as much as $1 billion of the first global Shariah-compliant dollar bills by the middle of the year, according to Chairman Zeti Akhtar Aziz.
The Kuala Lumpur-based multinational agency postponed the offering last year as it awaited a credit rating, an issue that will be resolved at a meeting in the Middle East this month, Zeti, who is also governor of Malaysia's central bank, told reporters in the capital today.
"That meeting will finalize many issues," said Zeti. "We hope soon after that we we'll receive the rating and following that the process of issuance."
The corporation was formed by 12 central banks and two multinational institutions in January 2011 to provide Islamic lenders with a broader range of instruments in which to park idle funds. The Kuala Lumpur-based Islamic Financial Services Board estimates the $1 trillion industry will grow to $2.8 trillion by 2015.
Growth in Malaysia's Islamic banking deposits has outpaced non-Shariah-compliant counterparts by almost three times, increasing an average 17.6 percent over the past 10 years, compared with 7.1 percent, according to the central bank's 2011 Financial Stability and Payment Systems Report issued today.
"The continuous demands and challenges of effectively managing liquidity and the associated asset-liability maturity mismatches have provided the impetus for wide-ranging efforts to further enhance the liquidity management framework," the report said.
Bank Assets
The country's Islamic banking assets rose 23.8 percent to 434.6 billion ringgit ($141 billion) last year and accounted for 22.4 percent of the total, according to Bank Negara. Shariah- compliant insurance assets, or takaful, climbed 15.8 percent to 17 billion ringgit.
Sales of sovereign and corporate Islamic bonds, which pay returns on assets to comply with the religion's ban on interest, almost tripled over the past five years to 353 billion ringgit at the end of 2011, according to today's report.
The Southeast Asian nation, which pioneered the industry 30 years ago, remained the world leader with a market share of 60 percent, or $108 billion, in outstanding Shariah-compliant bonds, or sukuk, it said. Malaysia accounted for 73.2 percent of global issuance last year, Bank Negara said.
Sales of foreign currency-denominated sukuk in Malaysia increased to $2.1 billion, accounting for 14.5 percent of U.S. currency Islamic bonds globally, according to the report.

Suarez puts top four finish first
Luis Suarez would be happy to sacrifice personal glory if it meant Liverpool were guaranteed to qualify for the Champions League - but insists his Anfield future is not dependent on a return to Europe's elite.
The Uruguay striker has earned numerous plaudits for his performances this year and his 24 Premier League goals puts him in line for the Golden Boot with his nearest challenge being team-mate Daniel Sturridge (18).
With Liverpool currently second in the table, six points ahead of fifth-place Tottenham, there is every chance Suarez could achieve both ambitions this season but he would settle for getting the club back into Europe's premier club competition.
"I'd actually prefer not to win this Golden Boot and for Liverpool to qualify for the Champions League this season," said Suarez in an interview in the April edition of FourFourTwo magazine.
"Any player would miss the Champions League. We've not been good enough since I've been here to qualify but this could definitely be our year.
"It would be a frustration not to get fourth because we've done everything possible and given our maximum to qualify.
"Everyone says Champions League nights at Anfield are amazing - memories you guard forever.
"It would be an unforgettable experience and it's been too long since that happened. I think to finish in the top three, which is still possible, would be incredible with the players we have in the squad."
Suarez, having tried to manufacture a move away last summer, signed a new vastly-improved contract in December.
There has been speculation it contained a bona fide clause which would allow him to leave if the club did not qualify for the Champions League, but he insists a failure this season would not necessarily see him walk away this summer.
"I signed my new contract because I'm very happy here and I want to stay where I'm enjoying football and life. Playing in the Champions League isn't dependent on that," he added.
"This is my best season yet. I feel in a very good place, physically and mentally.
"Every day I feel better in this club. I hope to continue down this path because we want Champions League football for Liverpool and, personally speaking, I want to continue that mentality throughout the World Cup with Uruguay."

U.S. first lady Michelle Obama will be on-hand to help celebrate
Sesame Street's 40th birthday in November, the show's producers said.
The wife of President Barack Obama will be seen teaching the residents of
Sesame Street about the benefits of planting a garden and healthy eating as part of the show's ongoing
Healthy Habits for Life initiative.
All these seeds need to grow are sun, soil and water. If you eat these healthy foods, you're going to grow up to be big and strong, like me, she tells the kids.
I know you're going to like these vegetables, because in addition to being healthy, they really taste great!
It is truly an honor to have Mrs. Obama join us in our premiere show on this landmark 40th anniversary season, Carol-Lynn Parente, executive producer of
Sesame Street, said in a statement.
Obama is to appear Nov. 10 on the iconic pre-school program's 40th season premiere.

New York Yankees' Derek Jeter: End of an Era or Pause in Greatness?April 22, 2011
I'm not a sabermetrics guy.
Instead of numbers and formulas, I prefer to rely on what I glimpse with my own two eyes, and judge what I see not with a calculator but with instincts that have been honed through a lifetime of watching baseball.
For the last year, sabermetrics supporters and analysts have been saying that Derek Jeter is done.
I have not believed them.
When I looked at Jeter I saw the same thing everyone else did; an aging shortstop with diminished range and offensive production that was rapidly declining from Hall-of-Fame level to simply average.
But I gave Jeter the benefit of the doubt. If anyone has ever deserved it, it is the Yankee Captain. The goodwill and respect that Jeter has earned in his professional career are not things that are easily erased. His accomplishments can never be taken from him, and have certainly earned him a lifetime pass among baseball fans.
I explained away Jeter's subpar 2010 season as the simple result of a player entering a different phase of his career who was having trouble with the adjustment. He wasn't done by any means—he just needed to alter his game.
For the pro's pro, this would be no problem. His struggles in 2010 would be quickly forgotten once things got back on the right track.
Or so I thought.
Watching Jeter in 2011, I fear my hypothesis on his recent shortcomings is not looking so good.
I am unfazed.
Baseball is a game of ebbs and flows. Slumps are commonplace, even for the game's best. Although Jeter has continued to struggle this season, it is important to remember that the current MLB season has given us only the smallest of sample sizes. There is ample time for Jeter to right the ship.
And I remain optimistic that he will be able to do just that.
Although Jeter has clearly been frustrated with his bat speed and lack of success at the plate, his work ethic is unparalleled. There is no doubt that he is putting in the work necessary to bring his game back to an acceptable level.
After all, if David Ortiz can hang on and remain productive in the autumn of his career, it is only logical that Jeter can do it too. Especially considering that Big Papi is nowhere near the athlete Jeter is, nor does he posses the legendary drive of Mr. November.
Some will argue that baseball players, even legendary ones, tend to drop off and drop off quickly in their professional golden years. Once you lose that extra step, that half-second of bat speed, you become a dinosaur simply waiting for extinction.
While this is generally true, I still cannot believe that Jeter has fallen to this level quite yet. He is in the midst of a slump, that much is undeniable. And that slump has come at the worst possible time following his 2010 struggles.
But Jeter still has something left in the tank—I'd be willing to wager on it.
Although he has not been good in 2011, the reports of his demise have been greatly exaggerated. He isn't Mickey Mantle playing first base just yet. He isn't even Lance Berkman playing first.
Jeter will pick it up. He probably won't get to a batting average north of .300 again, and he probably won't be an 80 RBI guy either.
However a declining Jeter, taken over the course of an entire season, is still a pretty darn good player.
Last year, Jeter was often and publicly maligned for his efforts.
But he still hit .270 with a 179 hits, 67 RBI and a .710 OPS. As I said, I'm not a huge numbers guy, but there are a lot of teams who would take that kind of production from their shortstop, especially if they came with Jeter's leadership and intangibles.
Like for instance, basically any National League team located outside of Philadelphia or Florida.
For Derek Jeter, last year was a regression. For most players, it would be considered a productive campaign.
I still believe that Jeter isn't done yet. The great ones always seem to have a trick or two up their sleeve before the end comes, and he is one of the greatest. He is out of his prime, to be sure. But primes don't last forever. Just because he has peaked doesn't mean he is totally out of gas.
For Derek Jeter this slump, like many others in his career, will pass. It just happens that because of his age and decreased defensive range, this slump is more widely discussed and panicked over than others.
Once Jeter shakes off his early-season struggles, he will be productive once again, albeit at a lower level than ever before. But productive nonetheless.
For the Yankees, who don't have any realistically appealing options to replace Jeter at shortstop, the best move is to ride out the storm while standing behind the man who has supported the franchise for his entire career.
It's not as if New York, flush with talent as always, can't absorb a few bad weeks from a normally productive player. The Yankees have the talent and flexibility to give Jeter the credit he deserves, and hope that he can work through this rough patch.
To count Jeter out completely is a mistake. He has proven too many times that he is a player who will bare his teeth and rip your heart out if you doubt him.
Slump or no slump, he is still that player.

Softball Ranked No. 1 in NJCAA Pre-season Poll
The National Junior College Athletic Association (NJCAA) Division III Pre-Season Softball Polls were released earlier this week. The Herkimer College softball team is ranked #1, fresh off their 2013 NJCAA national championship.
The Generals are returning 13 players, including six starters, from last season, when they finished with an overall record of 43-2. They include 2013 first-team All-American Sammy Smaldone (Delmar, NY), All-American Delaney Buckley (Utica, NY) and All-American Toni Secreti (Baldwinsville, NY), who was named National Pitcher of the Year as a freshman. Also returning, and expected to have big seasons for Herkimer, are captain Alyssa Balfe (Oriskany, NY), National Player of the Year Tina Karaqi (Thornwood, NY), All-Conference selection Ashley Sterritt (Accord, NY), All-World Series Team member Rebekah Kitchen (Delmar, NY) and Kathryn Dolly (Herkimer, NY), who looks to take over the first-base duties.
The Generals will begin their 2014 season in mid-March when they head to Myrtle Beach, SC for their annual spring trip, before returning home to begin their regional and conference play. The Generals are led by head coach P.J. Anadio, assistant head coach Dan Stalteri and assistants Steve Speno, Stephen Sydoriw and Emily Woudenberg.

It's the weekend (a long one at that). It's unofficially, officially summer. And that means I have a valid excuse to (over) indulge in several of my favorite things for the next 4 months. Barbecue. Berries. Baking. Booze. Which are all things I wholeheartedly indulge in on a regular basis, but now I can do so without people judging as much. It's slightly comforting.
My main goal or the summer will probably be attempting to combine my four favorite things in as many different combinations possible, as frequently as possible. What can I say, I'm a simple girl. It doesn't take much to make me happy. As you can see from the recipes I'm planning on making this weekend, I would say that this summer is already off to a great start! 🙂
Things I Made This Week:
- Gluten-free Crispy Portobello Mushroom Fries
- Gluten-free Strawberry Black Pepper Crisps
- Gluten-free Southwestern Pizza
Things I Want to Make Next Week:
- Watermelon & Jalapeno Margaritas! (The Sugar House Blog) Um… Yes. Please. Now. Thank. You.
- Barbecue Chicken Burgers (Annie's Eats) I've been hankering to make homemade BBQ sauce.
- Three-Bean Salad with Dill Dressing (Homesick Texan) Beans. Dill. Sold.
- Strawberry Summer Cake (Smitten Kitchen) I have 4 pounds of strawberries to use. It would be rude not to.

We've just returned from a fun filled 16 days on the beautiful island of Sri Lanka. The food was fantastic, the people friendly, the markets chaotic, the temples serene, the mountains breathtaking, the wildlife plentiful and the weather ? Well, you can't have everything, it was mostly hot, and at times very wet.
Why Sri Lanka ? We loved time spent earlier this year in southern India, especially the food. Sri Lanka lies just off the southern tip of India and has been influenced over time by various invading Indian dynasties. Often referred to as the spice Island, it's been an important trading post for centuries. Other countries have also played their part in shaping Sri Lankan cuisine. The Portuguese arrived in the early part of the 16th century, the Dutch gained control in the 17th century, the British had control by 1815, and independence was proclaimed in 1948. Throughout these years, Chinese traders also contributed to the evolution of Sri Lanka.
So, what's the food like ? Delicious !
Our first night was spent at a homestay in the coastal city of Negombo. All day the rain bucketed down. It was difficult to go anywhere else, so we asked our hosts to provide dinner. Good move !
The rain let up long enough for a quick quick visit to the fish market, the first of several we'd see.
Our hostess made 10 different dishes including a mango curry where I watched her pluck the fruit from the tree in the front yard. There was sour fish curry, chicken curry, dal, several veggie curries, chutney, two rice and roti bread. The meal cost 900 rupees pp, or about $6. Gosh it was good. Lousy photo, some better ones to come.

"… and so it begins!"
Welcome to "Tales from the Fragrant Harbour"!
In the next couple of days I am hoping to take you to a little excursion to Hong Kong to explore the local food and food culture as well as maybe a little bit more about my personal culinary background. I hope I can give you a good impression of what life is like on this side of the globe and am looking very forward to answering questions, engaging in spirited discussions and just can share a bit of my everyday life with you. Before starting with the regular revealing shots of my fridge's content and some more information on myself, I'd like to start this blog and a slightly different place.
For today's night, I 'd like to report back from Chiba city, close to Tokyo, Japan. It's my last day of a three day business trip and it's a special day here in Japan: "Doyou no ushi no hi". The "midsummer day of the ox", which is actually one of the earlier (successful) attempts of a clever marketing stunt. As sales of the traditional winter dish "Unagi" (grilled eel with sweet soy sauce) plummeted in summer, a clever merchant took advantage of the folk tale that food items starting with the letter "U" (like ume = sour plum and uri = gourd) dispel the summer heat, so he introduced "Unagi" as a new dish best enjoyed on this day. It was successful, and even in the supermarkets the sell Unagi-Don and related foods. Of course, I could not resist to take advantage and requested tonight dinner featuring eel. Thnaks to our kind production plant colleagues, I had what I was craving …
(of course the rest of the food was not half as bad)
Todays suggestion: Unagi (grilled eel) and the fitting Sake !
For starters: Seeweed (upper left), raw baby mackerel with ginger (upper right) and sea snails. I did not care for the algae, but the little fishes were very tasty.
Sahimi: Sea bream, Tuna and clam ...
Tempura: Shrimp, Okra, Cod and Mioga (young pickled ginger sprouts).
Shioyaki Ayu: salt-grilled river fish. I like this one a lot. I particularly enjoy the fixed shape mimicking the swimming motion. The best was the tail fin
Wagyu: "nuff said ...
Gourd. With a kind of jellied Oden stock. Nice !
Unagi with Sansho (mountain pepper)
So, so good. Rich and fat and sweet and smoky. I could eat a looooot of that ...
Chawan Mushi:steamed egg custard. A bit overcooked. My Japanese hosts very surprised when I told them that I find it to be cooked at to high temperatures (causing the custard to loose it's silkiness), but they agreed.
Part of the experience was of course the Sake. I enjoyed it a lot but whether this is the one to augment the taste of the Unagi I could not tell ...
More Unagi (hey it's only twice per year) ...
Miso soup with clams ...
Outside view of the restaurant. Very casual!
On the way home I enjoyed a local IPA. Craft beer is a big thing in Japan at the moment (as probably anywhere else in the world), so at 29 oC in front of the train station I had this. Very fruity …
When I came back to the hotel, the turn down service had made my bed and placed a little Origami crane on my pillow. You just have to love this attention to detail.

OK.... here we go again!!! While this post is a bit premature (we don't take off until around 1:30AM tonight), I am extremely excited so I figured I'd just set up the topic now. As in previous foodblogs, I may post a bit from time to time while we're there, depending on how good my internet connection is, and how much free time I have... but the bulk of posting will really get started around July 9th - the day after we get home (hopefully without too much jetlag!!!)

Hi everyone,
Recently, I just found this paradise for Foodie and it is my pleasure to be here. My name is Ian and I am from Salzburg. I love to eat but have to hold myself back before I could roll faster than walk. Last month, I started my own food blog (mostly about restaurant, travel and stories). Reasons I want to be here are to improve my knowledge about food/wine and to learn more how to describe ingredients around me.
Thank you and have a great week =D

We're 50 something Aussies who enjoy travelling, eating, cooking, markets, kitchen shops, cooking utensils, animals & plants (often food related), architecture & photography (both kitchens and food) and exploring different cultures (of which food is a big part). The trip was January 14 - February 6, it was just marvellous. My favourite meal is now masala dosa with sambar, I had many. Here's some highlights of the food.
A late afternoon snack of Sichuan pepper squid was washed down with a beer at the Ajantha Seaview Hotel on the promenade in Pondicherry. It's a colonial building with a first floor terrace overlooking the colourful display of women in their finest, and the Bay of Bengal. We're here on a Monday public holiday for the Pongal festival, a four day celebration of the harvest, with many different ceremonies and traditions.
A visual bonus, cows (and sometimes goats) get their horns painted and wear flower garlands or other decorations.

Turtle Cheesecake
Last week, my work buddy Juan and I celebrated birthdays. Because, he's a Halloween baby, and my birthday is a couple of days earlier, the holiday is a special one for us.
As always, I was on the lookout for a special cake recipe to mark the occasion. I thought this turtle cheesecake would be just the ticket since Juan not only loves cheesecake but is known for the fabulous cheesecakes he bakes and shares with our work group.
This turtle cheesecake is incredibly decadent with an Oreo cookie crust, a layer of caramel and pecans, the cheesecake itself which is then topped with a chocolate ganache—and, for the grand finale—is then topped with a generous drizzle of more caramel and toasted pecans. All the flavors and different textures combine to make one very special cheesecake.
This outrageously delicious cheesecake had an unintended consequence. After the director of our group took her first few bites, she announced that it was the best cheesecake she had ever tasted. As soon as she said it, she realized that she had made a faux pas since Juan is known as Mr. Cheesecake! Uh oh…
Knowing Juan as I do, he is already plotting to make a cheesecake that will relegate this turtle cheesecake to 2nd place. I can't wait to see and taste it!
One year ago: Election Day Cupcakes
Two years ago: Fried Green Tomatoes
Turtle Cheesecake
Ingredients for the Crust
- 24 Oreo cookies, finely crushed into crumbs
- 6 tbl. unsalted butter, melted
- Pinch of salt
Ingredients for the Caramel-Pecan Layer
- 1 1/2 cups caramel sauce
- 1 cup chopped pecans
Ingredients for the Cheesecake
- 32 oz. cream cheese, at room temperature
- 1 1/4 cups granulated sugar
- 4 eggs, at room temperature
- 3/4 cup heavy cream
- 1 tbl. vanilla extract
Ingredients for the Chocolate Ganache
- 3/4 cup heavy cream
- 1/4 cup light corn syrup
- 8 oz. semisweet chocolate, finely chopped
- 1/2 tsp. vanilla extract
Make the Crust: Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Toss together the Oreo crumbs, melted butter and salt until all of the crumbs are moistened. Press into the bottom and two inches up the sides of a 9-inch springform pan. Place pan in the freezer for 10 minutes. Bake for 7 minutes, or until crust is firm. Remove from oven and cool completely.
Make the Caramel-Pecan Layer: In a small bowl, stir together the caramel sauce and pecans. Pour onto the cooled crust and gently spread into an even layer. Refrigerate while the cheesecake is prepared.
Make the Cheesecake: Beat together the cream cheese and sugar on medium speed until smooth and creamy, scraping the sides of the bowl as needed, about 3 minutes. Add the eggs one at a time, beating well until fully incorporated and scraping down the sides of the bowl between each addition. Add the heavy cream and vanilla and beat until well combined, about 1 minute. Pour the batter on top of the caramel-pecan layer and bake for 55 to 65 minutes, or until the edges are set, but the middle still jiggles a little.
Keeping the oven door closed, turn off the oven and let the cheesecake rest in the oven for 1 hour. After 1 hour, remove the cheesecake from the oven, and place the pan on a wire rack to cool completely, about an additional 2 hours. Once completely cool, refrigerate for at least 6 hours (preferably overnight).
Make the Chocolate Ganache: Combine the heavy cream, corn syrup, chocolate and vanilla in a small saucepan over medium heat, stirring constantly, until smooth. Set the glaze aside to cool and thicken at room temperature for 30 minutes.
Pour the ganache over the top of the cheesecake, gently spreading it to the edges. Refrigerate for 15 minutes, or until set. Remove the sides of the pan, garnish with additional caramel sauce and chopped pecans, and serve. Leftover cheesecake can be stored, tightly covered, in the refrigerator for up to 5 days. It can also be frozen for up to 2 months.
We also had a Halloween pot luck with some very creative and delicious punches. I'm after the recipes!

I picked this up for £90 from a reputable UK store. Originally intended to get a cheapo 4 octave controller to use with my Nord Nodular, but this was cheaper still!
Accept it for what it is. The keyboard is 5 octave, firm plastic feel, if you know what I mean, and the sounds are surprisingly good.
Polyphony stays fairly high even when you layer two sounds, (the pad sounds can sound very good layered), and the editing is so simple, you would have no hesitation about live work. If you are of a romantic disposition, there are some nice piano/e-piano and strings layers that are simple to set up and very playable.
In some ways, this is like the sound engine of the MV30 sequencer box. It sounds like a U20 with filters and basic effects. (The chorus is ON/OFF!)
You're not getting the sound quality of a D70 or a JD800, but then again, it's a hell of a lot easier to use! - you just sit down and play it.
That's what it's really for. Not programmers or tweakers. but people who actually play the keyboard.
I think I paid about the right price for this.

It's a very active thread, too, with several responses over the course of its existence discussing low level PvP as well as itemization and what's wrong with fury warriors. (That last bit may have caught my attention, not gonna lie.) So if you have some opinions that you can back up with reasonable arguments, head on over to the thread and give Blizzard a sense of what you're seeing in game.
It's open warfare between Alliance and Horde in Mists of Pandaria, World of Warcraft's next expansion. Jump into five new levels with new talents and class mechanics, try the new monk class, and create a pandaren character to ally with either Horde or Alliance.

Family Adventure Safari
Tanzania has a lot to offer families traveling with children. This amazing adventure holiday destination give children an opportunity to learn about nature, interact with local children, and experience a way of life completely different from their own.
It's a great way to bring the whole family closer together, and offers activities that are specifically geared towards learning, as well as kid-friendly meals, and patient, knowledgeable safari guides. Don't miss this opportunity to experience the real Africa with the whole family.
Tarangire – Ngorongoro – Serengeti – L. Manyara – L. Natron & L. Eyasi – (Bushmen Village) – Zanzibar
Day 1: Welcome to Arusha, Tanzania
Arrival in Arusha at the Kilimanjaro International Airport you are welcomed by our representative who will usher you into a waiting vehicle and transfer you to the Karama Lodge Hotel in Arusha. Our representative will have a short safari briefing session with you at the lodge and leave you to relax and have dinner.
Day 2: Arusha town/ community tour for acclimatization.
Here you will visit community activities, including local Maasai market, Snake Park in the outskirts of Arusha, Visit to the Children's Orphanage that we support and late in the noon/evening return to your Hotel for rest, dinner and overnight at Karama Lodge Hotel.
Day 3: Arusha to Arusha National Park
After breakfast you are met by our professional tour guide/driver, who will deliver a short safari info briefing, after which we travel east to the Arusha National Park. This small but beautiful Tanzanian National Park is the closest national park to both the famous Arusha "safari town" (30 km) as well as the Kilimanjaro International Airport, thus making it ideal for 1-day safaris or tours. Not only is the animal life in the park abundant, but it is also one of the most beautiful and topographically varied parks in Tanzania. The park's three most significant features include the rugged Mount Meru (Tanzania's second highest peak at 4566m), the notably different colored Momela Lakes, and the 3km wide Ngurdoto Crater, which was formed about fifteen million years ago!
You will enjoy lunch at the Momela view picnic site and do an exciting morning game drive and afternoon game drive, visiting both the Momela Lakes and the Ngurdoto Crater. Wildlife which could be seen includes African buffalos, elephants, hippos, giraffe, warthogs, antelopes, zebras, blue monkeys and sometimes a rare leopard or hyena. Late afternoon we depart back to Karama Lodge Hotel for dinner and overnight.
Day 4: Arusha to Lake Manyara
Our Tanzanian safari starts at 8:30 as we drive from Arusha to Lake Manyara with a picnic lunch en route. We enter the majestic Lake Manyara Game Park and embark on the first of the six Tanzanian safaris. This small park is sandwiched between the Rift Valley escarpment and the large sodiforous Lake Manyara. It is a pretty location, with a good range of game, including giraffe, elephant, baboon and the rarely seen tree-climbing lion. Overnight: Bougainvillea Lodge.
Day 5: Manyara – Lake Natron
After your breakfast at the Lodge you will be on your way to Lake Natron which is apparently the breeding site for the lesser and greater flamingos who migrate here every year from as far as Lake Nakuru, and Baringo in Kenya. On your way you will view Masai villages and after an hour you will be at Engaruka village where you will have brief stop to visit the Engaruka ruins. These are ruins of an ancient mysterious city with confiscated irrigation canals that are believed to be more than five hundred years old. You will be shown the canals and remnants of the buildings and graves. There after you will be on your way again to Lake Natron, with views of more Maasai villages and wildlife; arriving in time for lunch at your lodge. After lunch at the lodge and a short rest you will go for a walk at the Lake and depending on water levels you can take a dip or go for a boat ride. You will have the chance also to walk upstream of the Ngaresero River up to the water falls. On your walk upstream you are likely to encounter monkeys and baboons along the way. In the afternoon you can go for a sundowner at the Lake Natron. Overnight at Lake Natron tented camp
Day 6: Lake Natron- Serengeti
Today you activities will start with a walk at the Lake again if you wish and thereafter leave for the Serengeti National Park. You will cross the Loliondo Game Controlled area where apparently the wildebeests herds cross on and around November and December when they are coming from Masai Mara in Kenya. After the registration formalities at the Klein's Gate you will go for game drive in the vast plains of the Serengeti National Park (on your way to the lodge) where you will get the chance to see lots of animals and birdlife alike. Among animals that can be seen here includes the zebras, buffaloes, baboons, topis, impalas, cheetahs, leopards and the recently introduced Rhinos, which were the only member of the big Five that was missing in this park. Overnight at. Meals and overnight at Ikoma bush tented camp.
Day 7: Full day in Serengeti Park
Safari in Tanzania is not complete without a visit to Serengeti National park. At day break you are out to the Serengeti plains for a sunrise game drive that normally offers the only chance of sighting the nocturnal species retiring and also the diurnal species waking up to a new day before you go back for breakfast. After breakfast you will leave for a full day of game drives exploring the Serengeti. Depending on the season and time of the year, this is where you will witness the magnificent natural phenomenon of the 'Great migration' where more than one and a half million wildebeests accompanied by hundreds of thousands of gazelles and zebras brave the crocodile infested rivers and cross the border into the Masai Mara in Kenya in search of green pastures and water. The resident animals and birds that stay all year round in Serengeti makes sure that the park is must visit whenever one travels to Tanzania. Later in the afternoon you will drive back to the campsite for dinner and overnight at Serengeti Ikoma bush tented camp for dinner and overnight.
Day 8: Serengeti to Ngorongoro Crater

Day 9: Full day, Ngorongoro Crater
This day we will start early morning at 07:00 for the game drive (with a picnic lunch) inside the Ngorongoro Crater. As very few animals migrate in and out of the crater with its 2000 ft. high walls, you can expect to see lions, elephants, zebras, hippos, flamingos, jackals, rhinos, antelopes, many birds and other species. Your Driver/Guide will be in contact with other safari drivers and will amaze you with his skill at locating the hidden animals. After great all exploration in crater the drive will drive back to your lodge. For overnight and dinner at your lodge, Rhino lodge.
Day 10: Ngorongoro – Eyasi
Today's activities will start by heading to the Lake Eyasi area for a cultural encounter of a life time. Eyasi is the home of a hunter –gatherer tribe known as the Hadzabe people with who have stood all the odds of westernization and still leave the ancient way of making a living through hunting animals and gathering fruits and tubers for food. The Hadzabes are a small ethnic group that has been able to co-exist harmoniously with nature. You will have the chance to meet also the Datoga people a small tribe also with a rich cultural heritage.

Free agency has gotten off to a slow start this summer. Carmelo Anthony and LeBron James have yet to make their respective decisions, and that seems to be holding everything up. Once they decide where they will sign, everything else will fall into place for the rest of the NBA.
Free Agency
With the Portland Trail Blazers not in the running for big name/high paid players, they presumably made quick use of their MLE (Mid-Level Exception). Reports surfaced Thursday evening that Chris Kaman had reached an agreement to a two-year $10 million dollar contract with the Blazers.
Once Kaman officially signs after the NBA's free agent moratorium ends on July 10, this will leave the Blazers with 1 remaining roster spot. With that roster spot, it is looking more likely that the Blazers will bring back Mo Williams.
On Saturday, CSNNW's Chris Haynes reported that Mo Williams' return to the Blazers was still a possibility.
Haynes breaks down the possible deal that he would be able to sign with Portland:
"The Trail Blazers can bring Williams back by using the non-bird exception. It is 120 percent of his previous salary or 120 percent of the NBA minimum, whichever happens to be greater."
Williams opted out of his two-year deal with Portland that would have paid him nearly $2.8 million this upcoming season. According to RealGM Basketball, it looks like Williams' eligible minimum salary figure would come out to be just under $1.5 million. Taking the larger of the two, Mo would be able to sign with Portland for around $3.3 million.
Shortly after Haynes' report, word came out that the Dallas Mavericks (Mo's other option to that point) were closing in on a deal to bring back Devin Harris. This would give the Mavericks two point guards in Harris and newly acquired Raymond Felton – likely pushing Williams out of the picture in Dallas.
With Dallas' three-year signing of Harris, Williams' return to Portland becomes more feasible.
Unless the Blazers make a trade, the roster will look similar as last year's, with the addition of Chris Kaman and loss of Earl Watson. The addition of Kaman gives Portland some much needed frontcourt depth. A veteran big is something that I felt they needed last year.
Summer League
The Blazers will kick off their 2014 Las Vegas summer league on Saturday, July 12, at 1:00 PM against the New York Knicks. All of their summer league games will be aired on CSNNW.
Assuming the roster sits as mentioned, it will be up to Portland's young players to step up if they wish to improve as a team, and those improvements start with summer league. The addition of Kaman will help, but the addition alone doesn't transform them into a role as a championship contender. In a deep Western Conference, they will likely need a massive improvement from one or more of their young guys to have similar success, or even go further in the playoffs.
Other Notes
As of writing this, I saw that Mo Williams was still planning to meet with the Dallas Mavericks on Tuesday, July 7. Although, it still seems unlikely to me that he would go to Dallas. They would then have 3 point guards who are fairly equally talented. If he in fact does sign with Dallas, that would set Portland back a little bit, while also opening up that final roster spot. We'll have to wait to see how this plays out. That spot could then be filled by either a free agent with Portland's bi-annual exception or by one of the guys from the summer league roster. Two players that I'm looking at to potentially make the roster during summer league are Keith Appling and Davion Barry.

AROUND 100 police cadets will take part in a day of realistic crime workshops.
Cadets from Hartlepool and the rest of the Cleveland Police Force area, along with others from Durham and Northumbria forces, will head to The University of Teesside, in Middlesbrough, where they will have the opportunity to participate in a variety of challenge's in the university's realistic Crime Scene House and Law Court.
The sessions will include fingerprinting, footwear analysis, custody office procedure and interview techniques and will culminate with a group court session where cadets will witness a live trial and also have the chance to take part as members of the jury.
Chief Constable Jacqui Cheer said: "The day has been designed to take into account the knowledge police cadets already possess and focuses on enabling them to learn and practice a range of policing skills and techniques.
"We hope this session will promote and encourage their interest in policing and I would like to thank the university for hosting this event."
The Police Cadet Programme is open to young people ranging in age from 13 to 17 years of age.
Cleveland's Police and Crime Commissioner, Barry Coppinger added: "This is a great platform to give these young people an insight into the practical
skills required by a police officer and a chance for them to develop their self-confidence.
"The cadet programme is almost completely volunteer led by police officers and staff."

Camaro5Fest IV ...Mid Atlantic Final route W/Hotel stop in Dayton OH on July 31st
1 Attachment(s)
Here is the list of attendeed so far!
This is going to be an awesome event. 11 hours can be done in one day or two. We have chosen two days with a stop in Dayton Oh on July 31st. We will depart August 1st at 11 am to Lucas Oil Raceway, which is about a three hour ride. We will meet up with all caravans or groups coming down I70 from points north, south, and East. Feel free to reserve rooms at the hotel udsing our group for a great group rate. Let me know if you want to travel with us.
Initially we were set to go two routes, but the amount of people dropping out seemed to change the thought. We will head north together for those who will join in. I hope everyone joins up. If you are going to meet in Fredericksburg, there are hotels, or you can meet us in the morning.
We are going to stay off 70W until Columbus OH due to all the traffic. It is terrible this time of year and the maps are littered with construction east of Columbus. We can duck under and make better time. The route is attached. I will list the eating spots this weekend. If we eat in Athens, they have a parking garage on the block where we can safely park. I am looking at other spots as well. I will keep us safe. :thumbup:
So, who is going???:drinking::drinking:
RdBlan2 is the group leader for Hagerstown MD? Please contact him if you are meeting up with him at the outlets.
Hotel info is listed below for those wanting to get a room the night of July 31st. This hotel is located about 2.5 hours out from Indianapolis, and it is situated on I-70 right after the I-75 junction. I figure this will be a great location to group with other caravans and make a grand entrance into Indianapolis and Lucas Oil Raceway. :happyanim::headbang::drinking:
The hotel is a large hotel with plenty of rooms and a huge parking area with security. They have started us with 25, and will increase as we go over. Any travelers can reserve to this group if you are going to LOR. Judy Snell is the coordinator. She has given us the ability to cancel room reservations by 6pm the night of our stay. If you feel you will be going and you want to get a room with the group, or if you are with another group and want to stay and hook up with our group, call and book a room. [U][COLOR="Blue"]The room info is listed below. Due to there location and the amount of travelers, I can see these rooms and the hotels in the area booking up fast. Book as soon as you can, and if plans don't work you can back out up to 6pm on July 31st, the night of our stay. I look forward to meeting up with everyone soon... :drinking:

What is the deal with GEO Group?
I have been a Hemodialysis nurse (RN) for several years and I'm looking to do something different. I just applied to work at a local prison that is owed by GEO Group in North Florida. I just want to find out there pay scale, benifets, etc. Most importantly I want to know how they treat their employees. Any info would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks :spin:Jun 20, '07I worked for them but wouldn't do it again. The pay was extremely low compared to anything else in my area. I also didn't feel very safe there, mostly because they only paid their CO's $9 an hour and, because of that, they were always short staffed so ... they were always trying to pull my CO from medical. It was a constant battle to keep your medical officer.
Plus, their CO's weren't peace officers so they had no pepper spray or batons ... only radios to call for help and some of the staff did suffer serious injuries because of it. There was only one peace officer with weapons to cover 600 inmates. And, because the GEO staff was paid so low ... a third or more of them were compromised by inmates. At least one staffer was walked off the property every week.
Everything ... and I mean everything ... was sacrificed for profit, including safety. I only worked there to get experience for a better job and, thankfully, only worked there for a short time but, I would never do it again.
:typingJun 2, '10Would like to pick this thread up again. DO NOT bother applying at GEO in Arcadia, FL. BAD PEOPLE and a WORSE working envioronment. Stay away!Aug 29, '10Yep, do not work for Geo Group and certainly do not go to the facility in Arcadia, FL. Very unsafe and if you don't kiss ass forget about working there!!!May 19, '11The GEO Group is advertising up here in Queens, NY for nurses. With the type of IM we get in Queens, they had better get their s*** together!Jul 11, '11This company will make you wish you never became a nurse, much less working in corrections.Jul 20, '11Regarding GEO Arcadia FL: I notice they are looking for a utilization nurse recently and of course, the usual openings for full and prn RNs and LPNs. Anybody working there now who is on this forum? If so, could you let me know how its going down there? (Even though I have a good idea!!!)Jul 30, '11They were sued by I/M family in OK and lost. Jury awarded family 6.5M. Cellie killed I/M and officers didn't know for 2 days. The Celliie asked the officer to do something cuz his body was starting to stink. Crazy but true story.Aug 2, '11Wow! This is why forums like this are so important. That is very good information. I have wondered about them, have seen many ads. Now I know why!Aug 3, '11I see in the past few days GEO Arcadia looking for a nurse manager too. Things must really be jumping there lately!
Anyone know any recent news on the place?Mar 27, '12Seems like I can't add a new topic. But GEO Arcadia is once again advertising for nurses. So how many NM's they been through lately? What a joke!Apr 9, '12Sheri257's response should be required reading for anyone in state or county government who believes that privatization is the solution to their money problems.
I currently work in a state facility that was originally built and operated by one of the largest private prison firms in the country. It was run so badly that the state finally took it over about seven years ago. Incredibly, privatization reared its head again during the last legislative session. The only way that a private company can do what we do for less is to understaff, underpay and deny services - none of which are good options. The state retains legal liability even though they have handed off the day-to-day operations, and they have relinquished direct control. The state can only complain to the corporate office and hope that they do the right thing.

Main Attraction
Keep On Coming Back….
2006, MTM Music/Zink Music
Rating: 4.0/5
Benneck Lyngboe started out as singer/songwriter in 1987 and started working with local acts. In 1995 it was time for him to release a self-financed EP called LEAVES OF FALL, and the first edition of 1000 copies sold out. During 2001, Mr. Lyngboe felt that it was time to focus more on his own material, and it was around then he met Terje Eide and they formed a duo. With help from Eirik Gronner they released a five-track demo and a studio album. Due to musical differencies, Mr. Lyngboe left the project two years later. He took some of the material he wrote for the duo with him and released a new album under the name Main Attraction.
The Norwegian Main Attraction delivers neat and well-played melodic hard rock with a very melodic approach. I can understand why Mr. Lyngboe decided to form a melodic hard rock act, because his voice really fits this kind of music.
There's nothing much to say about the 12 tracks except that they are EXCELLENT; all the material is great and there's not a single weak moment on the entire album.
My favorite tracks are "Calm before the Storm", "Remember", "Under My Skin", "Calling You", "Over the Top", "Up the Wall", and "Man In Change".
I recommend this to any fan of melodic hard rock and I really hope to hear more from Main Attraction in the near future.
Paul Benneck Lyngboe – lead vocals
Ronny Heimdal – guitar, keyboards

Zsolt Meszaros – drums

"The goal of Breast Cancer Awareness Month is to bring awareness about breast cancer, stress the importance of early detection and screenings and inform the public about the many resources and services available to residents of Somerset County," said Freeholder Walsh.
"On the national level, the number of deaths attributed to breast cancer continues to decrease. However, in Somerset County, the incidence rate for female breast cancer is higher than on the national level.
"With that in mind, there is much that needs to be done to reduce breast cancer in our county," said Freeholder Walsh. "It's important that we choose healthy lifestyles, become informed on cancer-screening guidelines, share information with friends and family and follow the American Cancer Society's current recommendations for annual mammography screenings," she said. "Statistics show that mammography for women age 40 and over is beneficial in detecting breast cancer in earlier stages when treatment outcomes can be more positive."
Refreshments will follow. RVSP by Tuesday, Oct. 8, if you plan on staying by calling RCDC Public Health Coordinator Lucille Y-Talbot at (908) 203-6077 or emailing email@example.com.
