Accused of making 999 calls and spitting in garda's face
A WIDOW who was before the courts charged with a litany of offences including making several 999 calls to the gardai and emergency services, spitting in the face of a garda, and causing a disturbance in an adoration chapel, is to undergo a psychiatric assessment to establish her mental state and fitness to plea.
Christine Horgan, aged 55, who has addresses at The Cottage, Fortlands, Charleville, and Bruhenny, Churchtown, Mallow was before Kilmallock Court charged with four counts of failure to comply with the direction of a member of the gardai, four counts of engaging in threatening, abusive or insulting behaviour in a public place, and three counts of obstructing a peace officer.
The offences are alleged to have happened at various locations in Charleville on dates between September 7, 2011 and May 23, 2012.
Superintendent Alan Cunningham of Bruff garda station alleged that on January 24, 2012 the defendant made numerous 999 calls requesting the services of both the gardai and the ambulance service.
He said it is the prosecution case that when the gardai came to her assistance, the defendant verbally abused them and lashed out with her fists at the patrol car.
Supt Cunningham said that Horgan was asked to leave the area but failed to do so.
He alleged that Horgan then became aggressive with the ambulance crew who arrived on the scene.
"She had to be physically restrained by the gardai because of her aggressive behaviour," said Supt Cunningham.
The court heard that on May 14, 2012, the gardai received a number of calls in relation to the defendant's behaviour at a number of public houses in the Charleville area.
Supt Cunningham said the defendant was arrested under the Public Order Act.
The court further heard that on May 23, 2012, gardai received a report that the defendant was causing a disturbance at the adoration chapel at the local church. Supt Cunningham said that when the gardai attempted to remove the defendant from the church she began "shouting and screaming" at the gardai.
Supt Cunningham said that Horgan was again asked to leave in a peaceful manner. He alleged that after she was removed from the church, she tried to re-enter the church and had to be arrested. In further evidence, the court heard that on September 7, 2011 at 6pm, gardai were called to a phone kiosk at Main Street, Charleville where a woman had dialled the 999 emergency line stating that she was in distress.
Supt Cunningham said that on arrival at the scene, gardai spoke to the defendant who allegedly demanded to be driven home.
When the gardai explained that legally they couldn't drive her home, the defendant became "abusive and aggressive".
Supt Cunningham alleged that she "lashed out" and hit the side window of the car with her fist after she was told to calm down.
The court heard that when Horgan was asked to leave the area, she became "more and more aggressive" and allegedly "punched and lashed out at the gardai".
Supt Cunningham alleged that Horgan hit one of the gardai in the chest and was then arrested.
"She became so violent she spat into the face of the garda and had to be handcuffed," claimed Supt Cunningham who added that Horgan also shouted abuse at gardai and at passers-by.
The court heard that Horgan, a widow with five children, has significant difficulties with alcohol and also has psychiatric difficulties.
Defence solicitor, Brendan Gill, said Horgan's husband passed away a number of years ago.
He said his client's actions stemmed out of loneliness as much as anything else.
"She tells me that she suffers greatly from her nerves and from depression as well," said Mr Gill who added that his client is in receipt of disability benefit.
Mr Gill said his client needed some form of intervention.
Judge Mary Larkin said before proceeding with the case she would have to direct an enquiry into the defendant's mental state.
Judge Larkin made an order to establish Horgan's mental state and fitness to plea and to establish if she should be sectioned under the Mental Health Act. Horgan was remanded in custody to Limerick Prison for seven days to appear before Newcastle West Court this Thursday, February 21.
Horgan is to appear before the courts on March 7 in relation to a charge of burglary in Charleville on December 20 last.

When we contacted the company, they reiterated that the eggs were not sold in Indiana. The recall includes several brands of eggs with dozens of serial numbers. To see the full list, click here.
The recall involves eggs with the plant number P-1065, with the Julian date range of 011 through 012 printed on either side of the carton or package.
Salmonella can cause serious and even deadly infections in children or elderly adults. Symptoms include fever, diarrhea, nausea, vomiting and abdominal pain.

text: Heart Diet & Nutrition Tips Cardiovascular Health in Salinas valley The food we eat makes minor changes to our body, changes that become more and more significant as we fall into dietary habits. Foods high in sugars, saturated fats and cholesterol create plaque in the lining of your arteries which make it harder for blood to flow. The formation of this plaque is called atherosclerosis, which also hardens and narrows the arteries. This is a leading cause of heart disease such as heart attacks and strokes. Thankfully, even if you have not maintained a healthy diet in recent years, it is possible to reduce cholesterol before you experience a complication. Creating a Healthier Diet Make a list of foods you eat on a regular basis. Have you ever looked at the nutrition label before? Make a noted of the items listed below that impact your risk of cardiovascular disease, diabetes, high cholesterol and high blood pressure. Review your nutrition labels for the following: Sodium – Primarily found in salt, sodium is a main contributor to increased blood pressure. Sodium is used in nearly everything, and fast foods contain especially high concentrations. The U.S. Food and Drug Administration recommends you limit sodium to 2,300 milligrams per day. If you already have high blood pressure, consult with your doctor on how much your body can handle. Potassium – Even in a high sodium diet, you can keep your body regulated with potassium. Potassium acts in opposition to sodium by lowering blood pressure. Beans, bananas and tomatoes are all excellent sources of potassium. Saturated fat – High saturated fat intake increases your cholesterol and hardens your arteries. These fats appear in many foods, but are primarily found in red meat. The American Heart Association (AHA) recommends you limit saturated fats to 13 grams a day. Omega-3 fatty acids – There is a "good" form of cholesterol called high density lipoprotein (HDL) that is found in omega-3 fatty acids. HDL actually removes bad cholesterol as it moves through the bloodstream, but only in high concentrations. Consume anywhere between 250-500 mgs a keep levels high. Omega-3 can be found in several fish, almonds, walnuts and spinach. Trans fats – Even sodium and saturated fats have health benefits when used in moderation. Not so with trans fats, which have no nutritional value whatsoever. Trans fats are cheap and add flavor to food, making it a popular choice for food manufacturers and restaurant owners. Trans fat increase your cholesterol while reducing good cholesterol. They also raise chances of developing diabetes. Avoid eating trans fats whenever possible. Sugar – A diet high in sugars, starches and carbohydrates may lead to weight gain, insulin resistance and diabetes. Sugars are typically hidden in processed foods; and thus, these foods should be avoided. The daily recommended limit of sugar is 25 grams for women and 35 grams for men. Understanding Serving Size Most nutrient information on food packaging refers to the expected nutrients you will consume in a serving size. For most people, the serving size is much smaller than the amount they actually eat. For instance, a bag of chips may list a serving size as "1 ounce," which is about a handful of chips. You need to multiply the nutrition information according to the amount you are actually eating. If a serving size is one handful, and you eat 4, you have consumed 4 times the amount of sodium, trans fats, and other nutrients listed on the bag. Look for AHA Approved Foods Having trouble picking out heart healthy foods at the grocery store? It can be tricky. Certain companies have become wise to the growing health trend and attempted to "hide" discouraging nutrient information by renaming certain items or claiming to be "heart healthy" after meeting the bare minimum standards approved by the FDA. The AHA has studiously reviewed foods for heart health and marked them with their certified seal of approval. Look food labeled with a heart and checkmark. Make sure the label reads "American Heart Association Certified," as certain manufacturers have mimicked the heart check logo to mislead consumers.

It's a long title for a muffin, I know. But I had to describe these muffins accurately.
These muffins are healthy! And ridiculously easy! And simple! Best yet, they are absolutely delicious.
Actually, they are based on a scone recipe. Have you met a scone that wasn't baked with layers of cold butter? I hadn't, until I came across this South African scone recipe. It was fabulous, and I didn't have to travel to South Africa because instead it came to me.
An intern at work, who was in the States for grad school, but was originally from South Africa, gave a presentation. After her slide show she passed around her freshly baked scones, which she explained were her grandmother's recipe. When I looked at the accompanying recipe I was shocked that there was no butter and that they were remarkably simple. I went home and immediately adapted the recipe for breakfast the following morning. I wanted the scones to be even more nutritious. I swapped the oil with pumpkin puree, and the white flour for wheat.
I had a scrumptious fat-free, light and fluffy pumpkin "scone".
Since these are baked in silicone muffin cups, I am going to just go ahead and call them muffins instead of scones.... but wonderfully, they bear the same airy, moist crumb as a scone.
For this batch I stirred in fresh cranberries. When they baked, their beautiful magenta juice burst into whimsical swirls against the backdrop of orange batter. Doesn't it almost look like a flavor ribboned scoop of ice cream?
You can make your own flavor combinations in these muffins, which is what's fun about it. Keep the base the same, but you could substitute apple sauce for the pumpkin puree, or toss in nuts, dried fruits, or blueberries. You could even get a bit decadent with chocolate chips. There have been far worse combinations than pumpkin and chocolate...
Enjoy these muffins gently warmed, with a smear of jam or butter. I'll warn you that they will disappear quickly (they do in my house), but they are so easy to make that you could put another batch on the table just as fast.... which is why they certainly deserve their long, descriptive title, and I hope that you agree!
...The Easiest and Most Delicious Healthy Muffins... adapted from "Ma's Scones"
1/3 cup pumpkin puree
1/2 cup milk
1 egg
zest of 1 orange
2 cups white-wheat flour (I use Trader Joe's)
4 teaspoons baking powder
3 teaspoons granulated sugar
pinch of salt
1 cup fresh cranberries
Whisk together the pumpkin, milk, egg, and orange zest. In another bowl, sift together the flour, baking powder, sugar, and salt. Add the wet ingredients to the dry and stir until just incorporated (do not over stir, you will get tough baked-goods!). Gently fold in the cranberries. Divide evenly among 8 silicone baking cups or greased and floured muffin tin. Bake at 400 degrees for 15-20 minutes. They are done when a toothpick comes out clean.

January 16, 2007
The sun was shining from a cloudless sky just outside Venice as Cunard Line's new Queen Victoria was named at Fincantieri's Marghera yard on Monday. Carol Marlow, Cunard Line's president and CEO, did not hide her happiness as the rebirth of probably the best known shipping company in the world took a major step forward. "The Cunard Lion is roaring again," she said in a speech, referring to company's house flag that features a golden lion rampant holding a globe in its front paws.
Queen Victoria is slated for launch in December 2007.
The celebrations comprised two events, the first of which was the placement of two coins in the foot of the mast on the uppermost deck of the new ship. The first one was a golden sovereign from the reign of Queen Victoria (1837 - 1901) and the other one a modern euro coin of Italy. Marlow pointed out that the figure of St. George slaying a dragon that is featured on the sovereign was actually carved by an Italian, thus making it even more suitable to the occasion. Cunard Line was founded by Samuel Cunard in 1840, when Victoria had been on the throne for mere three years (though it must be noted that at the time, the line was known as the British and North American Royal Mail Steam Packet Company).
The coin ceremony was performed by Maureen Ryan, who has served with Cunard Line since 1963 and who is the only person the company is aware of that has worked on all of its Queen liners: Queen Mary (1936 - 67); the first Queen Elizabeth (1940 - 68); Queen Elizabeth 2, which was introduced in 1969; and Queen Mary 2, which is 3 years old.
Once the coins were in place, both Ryan and Marlow in their turn welded part of the transparent screen that covers the coins in place under the watchful eye of Corrado Antonini, chairman of Fincantieri and a large number of guests and shipyard workers.
It is difficult to believe that the ship is scheduled to enter service in December of this year: Although the steelwork appears to be in place, the decks are still minus their covering and interior spaces are just endless wastelands of steel floors, while miles of cables and ducts make the bare ceilings to look like a perfect nightmare of chaos and confusion. In what will be the Royal Court Theatre, scaffolding still runs through the three decks it will occupy as workmen are installing the ceiling proper to the room. It will be the first theatre on any cruise ship that will feature private boxes.
Other main public rooms on Deck 2 included in a tour for guests still lacked all the elegance and flair that they will have once the ship is completed. Cunard Line has published a range of images that show an interior style that heavily capitalises on traditional British interior design, but with touches of modernity where needed.
The Britannia Restaurant in the stern still appeared equally bare and had makeshift flooring between the upper and lower levels. However, this will disappear as the ship nears completion and thus create a two-deck-high area near the entrance on the starboard side of the room.
Once the brief tour was over, the time had come to move to the dockside, where a naming ceremony was about to follow. A stand had been erected on the quay, where hundreds of people soon congregated. Marlow and Antonini made brief speeches and the local chaplain blessed the vessel. Then the highlight of the day was at hand: a brass band played "Fratelli d' Italia," the Italian national anthem, followed by "God Save The Queen," the British anthem.
Marlow then asked Ryan to act as "madrina" of the vessel and pull the trigger that released a bottle of Champagne against the side of the ship. Hardly had the bottle burst when the applauds of the crowd were overwhelmed by the mighty blast of the siren of the ship and that of Carnival Freedom, which was nearing completion in the dock next to Queen Victoria. The valves that control the access of water to the graving dock where Queen Victoria is being built were opened and so the ship came in touch with its natural element for the first time.
However, this was a gentle introduction as a shipyard official admitted that some work still had to be carried out before the ship was ready to leave the dock. Alas, the valves were soon closed again and the new monarch of the Cunard fleet will have to wait until next week until she can graciously leave the dock.
In the meantime, check out these new developments:
Cunard lifted a bit of the veil of secrecy that has covered its itineraries. After two maiden cruises from Southampton in December and a world cruise from the same port in January 2008, Queen Victoria will make liner voyages, exotic voyages, European voyages from Southampton, and Atlantic crossings. The next question is when will the ship be doing what? And here a bit more patience is needed as a Cunard official admitted he did not quite know himself.
The new ship will feature many signature Cunard features, such as such as the Golden Lion pub, Chart Room bar and Todd English restaurant. Those occupying the best cabins will dine in the exclusive Queens Grill and Princess Grill restaurants, but now there will be an opportunity to dine al fresco at a courtyard reserved for the grill-class passengers.
A winter garden will offer casual light meals adjacent to the lido and the pavilion pool on Deck 9. Cafe Carinthia on Deck 2 is a new feature that will serve light snacks, sweet pastries and fine teas. On the entertainment side, the Hemispheres on Deck 10 promises to be an interesting place: In the daytime, it will be the venues for various classes with a 270-degree view and at night -- well, a nightclub.

The manipulation of subcounscious
The Spraying Of Our Skies causes long-term health effects, climate change, drought.
For decades now, and largely in secret, the US military-industrial complex has been engaged in the systematic "spraying" of large swaths of our sky in one of the largest and least-discussed global planetary experiments in human history. These observed persistent 'contrails' are visible for several hours – and evidence suggests the contrails are aerosol sprays of metal oxides meant to reflect incoming solar thermal energy so as to cool the Earth by 1-2% and offset the greenhouse effect of increasing atmospheric CO2.
What's in these sprays in our skies—and are they toxic? Global scientific data collection paints a picture of a multi-year systematic effort to engage in "climate geoengineering" through this spraying program, with troubling environmental consequences. For example, post-spray rainwater tests made in Canada, the United States, Europe, and New Zealand reveal the presence of aluminum, barium, strontium, and other heavy metals in varying amounts that are unsafe, often radically so, according to various official criteria (EPA, US states, Canadian provinces, UN, etc.).

Did you know that over 300 issues of Model Aviation magazine are available online right now, freely accessible by anyone?
Model Aviation Magazine
The Academy of Model Aeronautics (AMA) is the world's largest model aviation organization. Model Aviation (MA) magazine is the flagship publication of the AMA, sent free to all open members. That means that the monthly readership of Model Aviation is over 150,000. By my reckoning, that makes Model Aviation easily the model airplane magazine with the largest circulation in the world.
Like so many other things, more eyeballs usually means more money to create great contents. Over the years I have probably subscribed to every American model airplane magazine on the market. Several of them are no longer in circulation. In my opinion, there is no contest. Model Aviation is easily the best model airplane magazine.
Before I get some angry emails, let me clarify. I said American magazine. Once in a long while I buy a copy of one of the British magazines. They are excellent. But they cost me about $10 an issue. Also, looking at the advertisements is a lot of the fun of reading a magazine. Unfortunately, the British advertisements filled with products I cannot get do not do much for me.
Treasure Trove
The AMA has been working hard to scan and put online issues of MA for many years now. The last time I looked at it the online collection was very incomplete. The interface was a bit clunky and the web site was not very fast. I think slow is the word I am looking for…
The new website (link below) looks completely different. It is a lot snappier and looks much better, too.
The plan is to have every single issue online, starting with the very first issue of MA from July 1975. Right now the archive is freely accessible by anyone. Because of the free access, the most recent year available is 2000. That is still over 300 issues online right now. Eventually you will need your AMA number to gain access. At that point every issue right up to the current one will be online.
This used to be called the AMA Archive. Because of the plan to include every issue through the present, it has been renamed the AMA Library. Makes sense.
Search Function
It is not just that they are online. I am sure we all have stacks on old MA issues lying around. The real value is in the search function. It is excellent. It is fast and returns high quality results.
There is an advanced search mode that shows up after you have done a preliminary search. With it you can search for a specific phrase. You can also exclude certain words from the articles in the results.
Even better, the search function returns articles, not pages. I remember that being a problem with the old archive website. With most feature articles getting spread out throughout the magazine, it was time consuming to read an entire story. No more.
Here is a tip for making the most of the search function. Right now, the date of the MA issue where the article is from is not shown in the results. I'm sure it will be fixed soon. In the meantime, just hover your mouse over the link. At the bottom of your web browser you will see which issue it is from.
Time Limit
If you live outside the United States and are not a member of the AMA, I would not hesitate to take advantage of this wealth of information. Like I said, there is no telling when the access for non-AMA members will be going away.

Münchner Oldtimer Reifen GmbH was founded in 1984 by Valentin Schaal Jr. As a lover of classic cars, he realised how difficult it could be at that time to get the right tyres. Starting out in his parents' tyre shop in Otterfing, Bavaria, he devoted himself entirely to procuring tyre sizes that were difficult or impossible to find. His travels, especially across America, put Valentin in contact with those few manufacturers that still made classic tyre sizes. This was the beginning of his tyre import business. The market for tyres for vintage cars developed rapidly, such that European manufacturers such as Michelin, Dunlop and Avon returned to their roots and once again began making some of their classic tyre models. Many models were brought back at Valentin Schaal's suggestion. Soon his tyre store had outgrown its original space and the shop moved to its current location in nearby Holzkirchen in 1999.
It's now possible for us to have almost every special tyre our customers need in stock and ready for quick delivery. Whether it's bias tires for the legendary VW Beetle or Opel Kapitän, American wide whitewalls for your Cadillac or Hot Rod, white-letter tyres for the muscle cars of the 60s and 70s, racing tires for pre-war cars or beaded-edge tyres for the very early vintage models, we can supply most within 2 days.
We are especially proud of our patented vulkanisation process for whitewalls on tyres previously only available in black. Give your your classic of tomorrow that extra bit of class with some retro styling. We can also offer you comprehensive service for spoked wheels. In our own wheel repair shop, we can centre, repaint or even replace the spokes on your wheels.
Switching to single nut wheels?
We can order new spoked wheels from MWS and Borrani with all the necessary accessories such as the central lug nut adapter, knock-off center caps and mounting hardware.
We also manufacture wheels for your pre-war car with drop centre rims, snap ring rims or also beaded-edge rims.
Curious or do you any questions Just write us at: email@example.com or give us a call at: +49(0)8024-6794
Our professional consulting team is looking forward to hearing from you!

GG+A Webinar: Strategic Planning for Your Strategic Plan
GG+A Webinar: Strategic Planning for Your Strategic Plan Presented by:...
"Perception is strong and sight weak. In strategy it is important to see distant things as if they were close and to take a distanced view of close things" — Miyamoto Musashi
Barney Ellis-Perry, Senior Vice President, brings to the firm over 30 years of experience in alumni relations and fundraising for a wide variety of organizations. Barney works hard to balance unique and creative ideas with execution rooted in strategy. His experience spans all aspects of nonprofit organization's needs with expertise in strategic planning, board and constituent relations, campaign visioning and planning, marketing and branding, and in spearheading innovative and immersive alumni engagement strategies across various digital, social media and in-person platforms.
Before joining the firm, Barney served as CEO of the University of California, Irvine (UCI) Alumni Association and as the UCI's Assistant Vice Chancellor of Alumni. During his 3.5-year tenure, Barney worked collaboratively with campus leaders and alumni volunteers to develop and implement a new vision and strategic plan for the University and the alumni endeavor. He also designed a system for tracking alumni engagement metrics, launched the Bridge Media program to improve online alumni and donor engagement, and led a re-branding of the organization. Under his leadership, alumni engagement increased from 7,650 to 10,533 from 2015 – 2016 and reached 13,161 in 2017.
Before his role at UCI, Barney held several fundraising and alumni relations positions during his 14-year tenure at the University of British Columbia (UBC), including Director of Alumni Engagement Campaign and Director of Alumni Relations. From 2000- 2005 he served as Strategic External Relations Officer at UBC Land & Building Services where he created Canada's first campaign for aging university infrastructure. Through government relations, corporate partnerships and University partnerships, he raised over $125 million CAD in new revenue for campus infrastructure. At Alumni UBC, he created a new strategic vision and departmental structure to increase alumni engagement in Vancouver and Hong Kong. He also successfully designed, launched and co-led Start an Evolution, the world's first dual-goal campaign for a major university, with goals of raising $1.5 billion and of doubling active alumni engagement by 2015. In support of the campaign, he also conceived and led a ground-breaking social media campaign—your evolution— in 2011, connecting alumni with each other and the community through a collaborative online project-sharing platform. Under his direction, Alumni UBC met the campaign's engagement goal a year early.
Prior to UBC, Barney worked as a fundraiser for a number of large organizations and served as a founding partner in a fundraising consultancy for three years. From 1996-1999 he served as Director of Annual Giving at St. Paul's Hospital Foundation of Vancouver where he created and executed the innovative Lights of Hope campaign and developed a major gift program for the Foundation.
When not at work, Barney is an active volunteer at the local and national levels. In 2012, the Prime Minister of Canada and Queen Elizabeth II awarded him the Diamond Jubilee Medal for his social engagement and community service, most notably with Volunteer Canada. He serves as the Chair of the Newport Sea Base Oversight Committee; Board Member of the Heart Cup Foundation; and Adviser for Gays4Good. He is also a member of the Newport Sea Base Rowing Committee and a member of the Board of the Orange Country Council Boy Scouts of America.

Denver Real Estate Market Hot
Happy Wednesday afternoon!
Hi, Roberts Johnson, with Cool Denver Homes.
The real estate market in Denver and surrounding areas is hot right now! I'm personally working with a half a dozen individuals and couples trying to buy right now. What's the reason you ask? Uncertainty in the mortgage industry is one big reason. Interest rates are still the lowest the have ever been and they may spike after the upcoming election; of course, no one for sure what will happen until after the election. So with low interest rates along with low house prices combined with low inventory has created a little mini sellers market. Some of the lower priced homes are now in the middle of a bidding war. I've personally had buyers offer above asking price in hopes of securing a home and even then we were out bid several times before we were successful.
Good news for the Denver Area Real Estate Market! Call me for more good information on how we can get you the Highest Dollar for your Home as well as help you find your Denver Area Dream Home. We can also help you with Bank Owned Homes in the Denver Area.
And as usual, think of me when you have a Real Estate need, call, 303.525.7599 or email, [email protected]
Roberts Johnson

Pioneer DJ equipment is respected and used worldwide by top DJs.
Seen the high end CD decks in almost any decent nightclub? Yes, they're made by Pioneer.
Seen DJs at top gigs using a Mac with external time coded CDs on decks? They are the very same Pioneer decks.
Pioneer DJ equipment is a reference in the DJ world.
Pioneer DJ
Pioneer are better known for their advanced Pioneer DJ CD players which have led the field for years.
The only club I've DJed in which didn't have Pioneer gear was a bar/club and lower profile. Any club in the top rankings of your home town or city will have this gear rocking their clubs.
You'll see that Pioneer DJ gear isn't the cheapest.
But if you were buying a car, would you buy some cheap ass motor that broke a year later?
If you can afford it, get the Rolls Royce of DJ gear! Pioneer.
The CDJ 2000
Pioneer CDJ-2000 Professional Multi Player is a high end beast of a CD deck.
It's already taking over at some of the top nightclubs across the world and has been used by countless top DJs to play with.
You can playback any digital files (MP3, wave, aac, aiff) not only on CDs but also from USB ports or SD ports.
The LCD screen means you can read the wave form of the music that you're playing, which makes it pretty much like a DJ console CD player hybrid.
It can be linked to other CDJ 2000s to share the same music source.
The needle drop facility is also pretty cool as it lets you touch down instantly at any part of your track.
The CDJ2000 is pricey, but very high quality gear.
Check it out in more detail.
Pioneer CDJ-2000 Professional Multi Player
Pioneer HDJ-2000 Headphones
Pioneer HDJ-2000 Reference Professional Dj Headphones are every DJ's dream.
High quality gear and robust resistance are the order of the day here.
These headphones will last you for years.
What would you prefer, spending twice as much and your headphones staying perfectly functional for 10 years or buying a cheap new pair every 2 years?
You'd end up spending twice as much on cheap gear if you go for less.
It's pretty obvious that spending more on your cans is an investment and shouldn't be seen as an expense as such.
Phones are more likely to break than any other DJ equipment. If they do, believe me, you don't want to be in the middle of your set.
My tip is to spend wisely and well on DJ headphones and they'll serve you far better over the years.
Pioneer HDJ-2000 Reference Professional Dj Headphones
Pioneer CDJ 350
The Pioneer CDJ-350 CDJ-350 Digital Multi Player is a great mid range DJ CD player.
If your budget can't take in a CDJ2000, then this could be the one for you.
A far better visual display, easy to search tracks and full digital compatibility makes this gear another hybrid digital and CD DJ's ideal player.
Some added functions that you'll find on DJ consoles are also on this cool decks, like Rekordbox track find software function.
You can perform loops, lock BPM, sync tracks and easily search through your MP3s.
The best function is being able to create playlists on the go, which is perfect for managing stress when you're trying to find tracks you can't remember.
We've all been there!

Bois Santal Complet perhaps. It's lighter, softer and wanders into a different path.
I currently own, and really like, Acqua di Parma's Sandalo, however I'm really trying to trim down a collection and only own the smallest number of bottles possible.
With that in mind, I don't want any crossover between scents - and although I do have one 'woody' fragrance, I feel there's just about room for a specific sandalwood/creamy and light wood scent.
At the moment, I have Gucci Pour Homme - and I enjoy it - but it feels very much a leather-woody-olibanum scent. More on the opulent, 'strong' side of things. I'm still testing it out and may change my mind over the winter, but I would basically quite like a 'foil' to what GPH, or if I replace GPH with something similarly quite dark/powerful/oriental-woody. I know it's cedar, but to me, overall, it is still quite a dark woody scent when taken as a whole, so I would quite like an alternative. Something a bit 'lighter' in the wood stakes would be ideal.
I'm struggling to really think of where to turn. I'm not averse to something complex - I. not just looking for a solitary sandalwood note, and that's it - and I'm not averse to a 'sexy sandalwood', something a big designery, or interesting interpretations on it.
I have a sample of CdG Wonderwood on the way (as well as WonderOud) which I am hoping will fit the bill without wanting to build it up too much. I tried a tiny sample of Tam Dao a while ago but can't really remember too much about it...annoyingly.
I have also owned Geo F Trumper's Sandalwood Cologne, which I liked, despite reports it's similar to Egoiste (which I dislike), and tried Proraso Red, which wasn't quite as good in my pinion.
That's about all I can think of off the top of my head at this late hour, but there have definitely been others I've tried/owned, they're just not coming to me. Would love suggestions. Not averse to a mild hint of incense or spice in here, but as I bought Sandalo to be something suitable for quite formal use (weddings, funerals, and similar situations) I'd quite like something that would fit that bill as well.
Bois Santal Complet perhaps. It's lighter, softer and wanders into a different path.
Remember that while it is perfectly acceptable to criticize the content of a post - criticizing the poster is not.
Mean spirited, nasty, snide, sarcastic, hateful, and rude individuals on Basenotes don't warrant or deserve my or other Basenoters' acknowledgement or respect.
Thanks hednic, I'll give it a try.
To shamelessly plug my brothers sandalwood quest from a few years ago, and also because its actually not a bad reference point (keeping in mind its his opinion): http://www.basenotes.net/threads/430...wood-Fragrance
Its interesting to read your interpretation of GPH (Im assuming 2003), as I dont see it at all as dark or heavy or any of those type adjectives. I find it to be quite versatile and easy to wear. Not saying youre wrong but rather just different takes on a fragrance. I appreciate your view.
Good luck!

Thanks, I actually read parts of that thread months ago but completely forgot about it. I'll definitely give it a better look this time. It felt a bit impenetrable at the time but I'll give it a proper go and do it justice.
As for GPH, I'm trying to conceptualise and compartmentalise, which is always a hard thing to do. In terms of wearability, I find GPH (and Bentley Absolute) is good, and like a 'middling' and enjoyable position between depth and light, appealing and artistic, 'dark' and light. I'm not going to do it justice, but in my head - particularly for the first hour or so - the wood and leather isn't the easiest to wear, and with a really prominent incense accord, I would consider it (despite its fairly poor performance) a 'strong' fragrance. But strong is practically a nothing word. 'Dark' isn't great either tbh, and no doubt it isn't depths-of-the-forest dark, but it has a strong, deep woody, masculine 'strength' to it that I'd quite like an alternative to. It's not even particularly the woody notes, per se, I think it's more the leather and olibanum which makes it quite pungent and not always a 'safe' scent. Which is part of the appeal, but also why I think there's room for 2 wood-based scents in my (hopefully) sparse collection.
I'll definitely check out that thread though, thanks.
I see what youre saying. Thanks for further detail. BTW, Tam Dao is in that thread and may help remind you of what you had sampled. And also Wonderwood.

Being not too keen on sandalwood (it smells too often like sweat to my nose [Tam Dao = Bah²] I'd go for Santal by Floris...
Last edited by Trauerkraut; 13th September 2019 at 06:28 AM.
Tam Dao is definitely worth a try.
Chanel Sycomore edp is worth a sniff if you're not into straight up sandalwood.
...too many among us die at thirty and are buried at eighty. - Robin Sharma
Parfum dHabit and Guerlain Heritage for me.
Beware, the road to a satisfying sandalwood is full of skeletons of those who never made it Its a note that rarely shines when it is pushed to the front of the choir.
Follow me on Instagram @scentcurator
My 6x perfect sandalwood based fragrances I own and adore:
- Guerlain Heritage (vtg edp and edt)
- Santal Noble (vtg) by MPG
- Egoiste (vtg)
- Zino (vtg)
- Original Santal by Creed
- Lalique pour homme edp
My Top '11' of main current rotation in no particular order:
- Paco Rabanne: Pour Homme (vtg)
- Antaeus (vtg)
- Azzaro: Pour Homme (vtg)
- TF: Ombré Leather
- Cartier: Santos edt (vtg)
- Al Haramain: Excellent
- SA: Shaghaf Oud Abyad
- SA: Al Basel
- D&G: Pour Homme (vtg)
- Mancera: Red Tobacco
- Mancera: Aoud Vanille
D R Harris Sandalwood Aftershave is my favorite sandalwood. It has the performance of a Edc and is nice and spicy, it has this spicy woody kick that I find addictive to smell.
"There's No School Like The Old School."
My Current Favorites
1. Antiquity By Areej le Dore
2. Musk Cologne By Bortnikoff
3. Pegwell Bay By Haeckels
4. Sahraa Oud By Fragrance Du Bois
Forget all of that. Go to Feel Oud and pick yourself up a gram of natural sandalwood.
Etro Sandalo is very nice, but on me is short lived and with weak projection.
If you can find a sample of it, Creed Bois de Santal.
Guerlain Samsara is also very nice sandalwood scent.

- Believe it or not, Proraso's Red Box aftershave is surprisingly good.
I have found the paradox, that if you love until it hurts, there can be no more hurt, only more love.
Mother Teresa
My two sandalwood gems are complex scents that don't open with a blast of sandalwood, but they close with a wonderful base of it:
Royal Oud: It's not an oud scent, so ignore the name and enjoy the smell. The opening is a bit challenging, but just a bit. It has a burnt cigarette sort of smell for the first few moments, but it quickly evolves into a wonderful smooth woody scent that's cedar and sandalwood. It's outstanding.
1725: It opens with lots of lavender and some licorice, but it evolves into smooth sandalwood with almond and a bit of vanilla to sweeten it up. Again, outstanding.
...as for Gucci Pour Homme... assuming you're talking about the 2003 version... I never got that much sandalwood from it. I owned two bottles, but I sold them both with no regrets. I loved the smell of it in the air, but the base wasn't that smooth, so once it started to fade it went downhill fast. I find sandalwood to be a tricky note. It's either fantastic or it is NOT. More often than not, it's not. And that's a shame. I love a really rich but smooth sandalwood!

Wonderwood and WonderOud may be closer as there's a bit more going on there (greater variety of woody notes, a little spice (pepper and nutmeg). Not sure that I'd class is as creamy and light. While there is some roundness from some of the sandalwood synth notes, its feels pretty dark brown to me (maybe just the power of suggestion due to the bottle...). Hewn wood rather than anything creamy.
Maybe Santal Majuscule for something in a slightly sweeter, more gourmand direction (some cocoa and a touch of rose).
1. No, never blind buy (I do, but do as I say, not as I do. I'm taking no responsibility for your fragrance gambling).
2. Get them both. You're a Basenoter and you know you're going to end up purchasing them both eventually.
3. Yes, it has been reformulated.
4. Looking for a signature scent? You've come to the wrong place.
I like West Third Brand Smoked Sandalwood a lot.
If you can find Bois des Iles EDT, it's the holy grail sandalwood for me. The EDP is more floral and creamier to my nose - still very good but not quite "right", and slightly more feminine and for evening wear than the EDT, which to me is very unisex and perfect any time.
There are similarities with Egoiste, but don't let that put you off - I like but don't love Egoiste and much prefer BdI. I find BdI is softer, classier and more beautiful than Egoiste.
[edited: sorry, I said the Sandalwood Cologne recommendation but didn't previously see that it was mentioned in the OP!]

Check out Art of Shaving Sandalwood if you can find it.
Trumper is easily one of the best I've tried.
The AdP is a nice fresh woody scent. But I find nothing really beats Sandalo by Villoresi for a true representation of the wood/note. It's not a fresh one though but the newer iteration (part of the 'Vintage Collection') is certainly lighter and projects from quite a distance.
Another recommendation to track down some real pure mysore sandalwood oil (I got some from Ensar Oud, but others have listed other sources). You just can't beat that, and it'll get your nose trained to recognize either real or believable sandalwood notes in other fragrances (a lot of stuff that lists sandalwood as a note really have nothing of the sort, to my nose).
Too bad Egoïste doesn't work for you, because that (and Bois des Iles) are sandalwood champions to me. I have the Bois des Iles pure parfum and that stuff is just swoon-worthy.
Another one that doesn't typically get mentioned is Cartier Pasha, which is a late 80s-early 90s style fresh fougere sitting on a really nice sandalwood base. My bottle is current (bought in the past year) and the sandalwood note reads believably to me.
The sandalwood note in Wonderwood is entirely synthetic, but pretty fun. I like it.
I never got much, if any, sandalwood from Gucci pour Homme ... mostly slightly spiced dry woods ("cedar"), woody amber, and incense.
Thanks everyone, great suggestions so far.
Good to see the Trumper and AdP receiving praise - I like them both in their own ways, and it's possible I'll stick with them (Trumper as aftershave, Sandalo as more of a perfume) but didn't want to settle just yet.
Also completely forgot about Villoresi Sandalo, something I wanted to try months ago but could never find, and just forgot about it. So thanks for that suggestion - and for all the others. Something to keep me ticking over in the next few weeks.
I know its tough to find and stupidly expensive but no ever mentions GUCCI RUSH FOR MEN when discussing sandalwood fragrances. The sandalwood really shines in this one. I was really lucky to find it at a decent price.

Fallout: New Vegas is a "different kind of licence," says Obsidian
Obsidian CEO Feargus Urquhart has told Joystiq that he considers Fallout: New Vegas to nearly be an original IP.
Speaking at Bethesda's pre-E3 event for American press in Las Vegas, Urquhart told the site it's a "different kind of licence".
"This is different than going off and making the Iron Man 2 game," he said.
"I mean this isn't a movie game. It's taking a license that, first off, we already love — and a lot of us actually were involved in making the original Fallout games. So this is sort of just something fun to do.
"I mean literally, when I was at Interplay, a lot of the reasons why I didn't leave when I probably should have left before was so I could get to make another Fallout. And so I kind of look at New Vegas as a different kind of license."
Senior designer for New Vegas Chris Avellone told VG247 at the press event for European journalists last week that the game's been in development since the last piece of Fallout 3 DLC was released, also explaining how development on the spin-off began.
"Bethesda basically approached us and said, "Hey, do you wanna do another game in the Fallout universe? We have the western United States to deal with. Choose a location there, give us a pitch, tell us what you think would be exciting and then we'll just see if we like it.
"And we were like, "OK. Well, here's our pitch and here's what we're excited about it. "hat do you guys think?". And they were like, "OK," and then we just started. [laughs] It was pretty cool, I was like, OK, that's awesome."
Get our full interview with Chris Avellone here. New shots are here.
Just like Fallout 3, Bethesda does have plans for DLC for New Vegas.
Fallout: New Vegas releases this fall for PlayStation 3, Xbox 360 and PC.

Home loans in TAS
Tasmania is the smallest state in Australia with the lowest population. More than any other state, most of Tasmania's inhabitants live in the main metropolitan areas of Hobart – the state's capital, and Launceston. This fact promotes demand in these locations; however, property prices in Tasmania are generally cheaper than in most other Australian states.
The state also has specific duties and taxes as well as grants and concessions that should be taken into account when acquiring a home loan in Tasmania.
What is Tasmania's economy and property market like?
In the past decade the Tasmanian property market has been somewhat undervalued, which has now caused a sharp rebound in prices. Though more expensive than in previous years, Tasmania's property prices remain less expensive than other states. This includes both Hobart and Launceston, which have average property prices well below the averages of similar cities, such as, Brisbane and Canberra.
Despite the cheaper property prices, Tasmania suffers from high rental market demand. This results in limited supply with rental prices generally high for the main towns of Tasmania.
Is it easy to get a home loan in Tasmania?
The legal systems underpinning Tasmania's property market are similar to most states across Australia. Due to the state's smaller population and high rental demand, there is usually high interest from interstate and foreign investors. In addition, you will find demand is highest in Hobart and Launceston, which have more employment opportunities and provide a better quality of life than other parts of Tasmania.
Tasmania is more susceptible than other states in Australia to cold weather spells, including strong winds and periods of snow. It is recommended you should ensure the property you are looking at purchasing can withstand the weather conditions and is fully insulated.
What are the costs and fees of buying a property in Tasmania?
If you purchase a property or land in Tasmania, the state government requires you pay both a Property Transfer Duty (formerly stamp duty) and a Land Tax. These are common fees in most states across the country and are calculated based on the value of the property. You should ensure these are budgeted for before securing your home loan.
Can I get any grants or concessions for getting a home loan?
The Tasmania government offers grants for first home buyers looking to get into the local market. The main two are First Home Owner Grant (FHOG) and First Home Builder Boost (FHBB). You will only be eligible for these one-off payments if you are buying or building a new home. The Tasmanian government offers several concessions for both the land tax and property transfer duty it you have special circumstances. These include if it is your principle place of residence or if the property is transferred between partners who are married or in a significant relationship. These grants and concessions often change and should be fully researched before making an application.


text: A detailed but accessible introduction to forest ecology, with an Oregon treescape as case study. Luoma (A Crowded Ark: The Role of Zoos in Wildlife Conservation, 1987, etc.) is a born explainer and popularizer of scientific concepts. Using the Andrews Forest of central Oregon as his setting, he distills the great mass of research that has been done there—more than 1,200 published research reports, articles, and books to date and literally hundreds of others now in the works—to reveal just how old-growth woodlands work. Along the way, he gives his readers a short course in such complex issues as forest succession and the virtues of biodiversity, whereby trees and plants of differing ages and species host a variety of forms of life, from microrrhizal fungi to megafauna (—of a single gram of forest soil . . . about a thimbleful, may contain a hundred million bacteria, and several miles of fungal hyphae—). He instructs readers in the politics of forestry as well, a touchy subject if you happen to live in big timber country; he writes that foresters have long used the model of trees as crops that can be planted and harvested regularly, accepting a virtual commandment of conventional forestry since its birth early in this century in central Europe that younger is better than older, and consistency is better than diversity. The Andrews Forest, he demonstrates, is a model for a healthy and sustainable ecosystem, and the scientific knowledge that has come from studying it has in fact been put to use in modifying the federal government's management of public woodlands—formerly the scene of wanton devastation and now the scene, in many key areas, of a restored wildness. A fine contribution to the environmental literature.

I love this machine. It is quiet, starts automatically when I put my mask on and has a ramp up feature if needed. The settings for the humidifier are easy to change. My only complaint is that the water chamber leaks.

Marathon, a 10-mile-long city considered by many to be the middle of the
Florida Keys
, is located mainly on Vaca, Fat Deer, and Grassy Key. To the east of the city is the world-famous Seven Mile Bridge (MM 47), seen in many movies. On the west end of the city is Tom's Harbor Bridge (MM 61). Marathon, like much of the Keys, is a major sport-fishing destination; it has several marinas with charters for
in either the Gulf of Mexico or the Atlantic Ocean. It is also a popular diving, snorkeling and spearfishing area, and an open lobster season. Marathon is a great place to try to catch a few.
Sombrero Reef, part of the only living coral barrier reef, is a popular diving spot because it's just a few miles offshore. Beyond that, on the Florida Straits, you can go wreck diving on artificial reefs. The
Hawks Cay Resort and Marina
and the
Dolphin Research Center
are two fun places to get up close with the local sea life. Both offer interactive dolphin encounters with educational experiences the whole family can enjoy. Crane Point, another place of interest in Marathon, is a 64-acre tropical hardwood hammock with nature trails to enjoy and explore. Marathon has the only airport in the Keys. It's not big, but it stays pretty busy. There are many unique boutiques and quaint little shops to browse for that something special, be it a t-shirt or jewelry made of local shells or gems, to always remember your trip to the Keys.
Places to Eat
As the day ends and it's time for dinner, Marathon has some great places that offer everything from local seafood favorites to delicious steaks and other delights.
Hideaway Café
is located at MM 58 on Grassy Key at the Rainbow Bend Resort ocean side. They've been there for over ten years and serve breakfast and dinner. Their dinner menu, with a definite "French Cuisine" feel, includes escargot selections, crepes, roasted whole duck, lobster, and fresh local seafood, all paired with a wine list that is second to none.
View Website »
Island Fish Company
, located at MM 54, bayside in Marathon, has it all: great shops, wonderful views and a Tiki Bar where they'll make you any drink you can think of, 365 days a year. Upstairs you'll find fresh local fish direct from the boat. Their menu focuses on fresh seafood, but they offer some chicken selections as well. Check your stress at the door and come on in.
View Website »
Seven Mile Grill
is a landmark restaurant in the Keys, located just north of the Seven Mile Bridge at MM 47.5 on the bayside. The grill offers chicken, steak, sandwiches, homemade soups and, of course fresh, local seafood. This local favorite has been open for over 45 years.
Butterfly Café at Tranquility Bay Beach Resort
, located at MM 48.5, is a great place to enjoy sophisticated dining in a beautiful garden setting. When you book your stay at this world-class spa and beach resort, you also get the benefit of a wide variety of eclectic foods found along the world's coastlines, capturing the essence of the islands. The menu and wine list change seasonally, but always fresh, local seafood and other ingredients. The café is open daily for dinner, and has a special menu for the kids. They also have a Tiki bar poolside and one on the beach, so you can enjoy the fabulous sunset and cool off with a fruity tropical drink.
View Website »
Much of this community's heritage is rooted in fishing, and the town itself has that the old-Keys style and laid-back feel that make the Keys so inviting. Lobster season is a big draw to Marathon, but all summer long it's a great place to visit. The people are nice, the fishing is great, the
is eclectic and the rum is flowing. Come on down and enjoy! They have a dolphin waiting to meet you.

Last month, the National Renewable Energy Lab released their State of the State report – a 231 page document (PDF) that tracks the progress of renewable energy development, as well as the policies and support mechanisms being implemented to encourage this development.
The exhaustive report provides a detailed picture of the status of renewable energy development in each of the U.S. states using a variety of metrics and discusses the policies being used to encourage this growth.
The five major categories are: biomass, geothermal, solar, wind and hydroelectric growth.
Data is tracked from 2001-2007, and includes factors such as state tax incentives, renewable energy access laws and production incentives. Page 104 of the document summarizes state renewable energy development policies.
All renewables combined only account for about 8% of the nation's energy generation. Interestingly, solar generation is the lowest producing renewable energy, producing only 0.01 percent. The highest producing renewable energy is hydropower, with almost 6 percent.
However, wind resources experienced the largest growth of the renewable energy technologies in recent years, increasing 30% from 2006 to 2007. Solar electricity generation has increased at a much slower rate, with gains of only 12.7% between 2001 and 2007.
The statistical analyses reveal several interesting results. States that implemented net-metering legislation in 2005 had significantly more renewable energy generation in 2007 than states without such a policy. However, this analysis does not find any single model for a renewable portfolio standard that is correlated with significant increases in development.
The report shows positive correlations between the total number of market transformation policies within a given state (including both barrier reduction and technology accessibility policies) and the total megawatt-hours (MWh) of renewable energy generated within that state. This relationship is particularly true when considering individual renewable energy resources.
In 2007, generation from renewable resources constituted 8.49% of total national electricity generation.
Solar energy still represents a small but growing fraction of total renewable energy generation. This portion is likely to grow in future surveys given the increasing numbers of concentrating solar power projects are being either proposed or have come online after 2007, particularly in the Southwestern states.
Wind energy accounted for the largest percentage of nationwide growth in renewable generation between 2001-2007, as well as between 2006-2007. Generation from wind resources grew by 411% from 2001 to 2007, and by 30% from 2006 to 2007.
The state that provides the highest generation of wind energy is Texas, followed by California.
Washington state provides the grid with the highest amount of electricity generated from renewable resources, with a total of 82,559,749 MWh. See page 172 to find your own state's ranking.
Kansas leads the pack in total growth of renewable energy generation, with a growth of 70,236 between 2001-2007. See page 176 to see where your state ranks.
California provides the overwhelming majority of solar power, with a kWdc amount of 528,262. New Jersey follows second with 70,236 kWdc.
Also provided is an overview of 14 contextual factors that may affect renewable energy development and policy effectiveness at the state level. Each state has a unique set of circumstances, and the same contextual factors may affect states differently, depending on specific state conditions. From a qualitative perspective, all 14 factors influence the bottom-line economics for renewable energy projects. The interplay among the various contextual factors is less quantified at this point. An increased understanding of these interactions – and how policies can be used to account for and take advantage of the interactions – will improve the future effectiveness of policy design and implementation.

Last Thursday started with a bang, thanks to a wonderful event hosted by local London legends, The Ragged Priest, along with 19 year old Polish über babe, Joanna Kuchta, to launch their beautiful collaborative collection entitled: Sleep Tight.
The collection itself is playfully simplistic, featuring classic cuts and shapes, against a super-soft pastel palette. Think fluffy clouds and My Little Pony 🙂
And to make things even better, the launch was supported by two of our favourite brands: Pistonhead and Voodoo Ray's! Thanks so much for the free beer and pizza! We love yooooooou!
So don't forget to shop the collection here, and then check out the rest of our exclusive pics from the night below…

Recently some unusual vintage metal garden pieces came in and were finally put up for sale on Monday, after I'd spent some time in trying to identify them.
After much delving through all the literature I have here, finally I came across a photo of an identical pond with fish fountain, bird table and sun dial in THE GREAT BOOK OF HOLLOW-CAST FIGURES BY NORMAN JOPLIN. The author stated that he believed them to have been made by a London company who traded as B&S but very little is known about them....other than in 1950 they brought out a series of metal miniature garden items (this pond being one of them) and that they are absolutely nothing to do with the Barrett and Sons Company who often marked their products B&S.
|The fish fountain slots snugly onto the central point of the pond. The beige paint is a little worn in places but that doesn't matter - it all adds to the character I think! Needless to say this was snapped up very quickly as soon as it went up for sale.
|This bird table stands at a height of 3 1/2" high.
|This beige painted metal sundial is suffering greatly from metal fatigue both on the base and top particularly. It measures 2 1/2" from base to top of dial.
So the very heavy metal pond with fish fountain, bird house and sundial had been identified.
Am assuming that the spade and garden roller are also made from the same company even though they did not appear in Norman Joplin's book. The garden roller has MADE IN ENGLAND embossed onto the handle and both these items have the same "feel" to me as the pond, bird table and sundial.
Anyhow...no sooner had these gone up for sale on Monday afternoon and a KT Miniatures Newsletter gone out, then a wonderful person emailed to say that she too had a pond just the same and knew what B&S stood for......"BYRITE & SELMORE". So there we are... it is very satisfying when a puzzle is solved! I must admit I don't know anything about Byrite & Selmore but needless to say, if anyone else out there can add anything to this, please do let us know - we would love to hear from you.
At the time of putting up this posting, just the lawnmower and sundial are still available to purchase. These can be found on the following KT Miniatures' page:

This homemade costume for boys entered our 2015 Halloween Costume Contest.
A word from Hina, the 'Legoman' costume creator:
My 4 yr old son Saksham s wearing the costume, he loves Legos n is too much into Legos right now. So I thought of making him legoman while not spending much. So I took a carton box n my hubby's t shirt. I cut the holes in carton n put the shirt on it. Made the face with yellow poster paper, got the gloves from dollar tree, took colored print outs of Lego logo. For Lego hat I used a red hat that we got from fire dept open house n stuck Lego logo on that too!!!

I love pumpkin and I never get sick of it. So last Christmas, I made this pumpkin dip recipe I found online. It takes 5 minutes and it's a crowd-pleaser.
Pumpkin Dip
8 ounces of soft cream cheese
16 ounces of sifted powdered sugar
1 can of pumpkin
1 tbs. of cinnamon
1 tbs. of pumpkin pie spice*
Mix together, chill, and serve. It's fantastic served with Stacy's cinnamon sugar pita chips or even with ginger snaps. I've seen it served with graham crackers and pretzels too. Pick your dipper and enjoy.
*If you don't have pumpkin pie spice, here's what you can do...mix 1 1/2 tsp. of cinnamon, 1/4 tsp. nutmeg, 1/4 tsp. ginger and 1/8 tsp. ground cloves.
