It seems to me that we can see carved into the walls at Dendara the Egyptians holding a bulb. Why did they have to have electricity of any kind? Why couldn't the bulb light up just because they were holding it?
Certainly there was some kind of energy work going on there. Call it laser beams or concentrated energy. Something cut those stone blocks and put them up high. Was it magnetism? Were the pharoahs giants like they were carved? Were they so big that the carvings do not do them justice? That is how they picked up the stones and put them high. The tunnels in the pyramids were for the small beings to remember how to get back home. Like in "beam me up Scotty." The giants came in space ships to show the people on earth that they are energy beings, too. That is why you find Egyptian bones of only the small people. The giant pharoahs took off in their space ships after showing the small people the importance of energy. Notice the symbols of energy on top of their heads. We are oval energy beings. I think that these circles show that we release energy, but then it comes back into us. We are circles. When a circle is shown, but you see two leaf type structures on either side of the circle, I think that this is showing that energy goes out and it goes in, and it is a circle, too. We are open systems, receiving energy and sending energy.

Orange You Glad?
Orange You Glad?
Our latest addition to the certified farmers market at North Park is Lone Oak Ranch, bringing crispy Asian pears, giant Pommelos, Satsuma mandarins and other juicy citrus right now; they're also pretty well known to local chefs for bringing some of the state's best stone fruit in the summer months.Please stop by and welcome them and their fruit to the neighborhood.
Speaking of citrus…
Since citrus fruits and juices are so refreshing, many people think of them as summer fruits, but in California citrus thrives in winter. Right now some of the very best and ripest fruits are available from R&L, Smit and Lone Oak, including navel, Valencia and Cara Cara oranges, Oro Blanco grapefruit, tangelos and tangerines. Ruby Red grapefruit and blood oranges may be here as soon as this Thursday. Toss citrus sections with your favorite greens and sliced red onion from Suzie's or J.R. Organics for a simple salad, or add a piece of grilled fish from Poppa's or pork loin from Da Le Ranch to make a great dinner.
If they're bringing 10-20 cars into a riisdenteal area, causing traffic and parking problems absolutely. See, here's how rights work: your rights are yours to choose until they infringe on somebody else's rights then you have to compromise. Those people were creating traffic and parking problems in a riisdenteal neighborhood on a weekly basis and had already had one of their visitors hit somebody else's car, they were blocking others' driveways and parking on lawns. Doesn't matter if you're meeting to study the bible, play poker, or have ****** you cause a nuisance, you're infringing on other peoples' right to the quiet enjoyment of their own property.The point of the permit, by the way, is that to get one requires filling out information about how many cars will be there, how often, is there adequate parking that doesn't infringe on others, etc. If your meeting (again, no matter what it is for) is causing a neighborhood problem, you're not going to get a permit.Oh, and liberal *** kicker: the constitution allows regulation of gathering, religious or political or otherwise. The county isn't telling them they can't do bible study, they're telling them they can't infringe on their neighbor's rights. It's especially ridiculous in this case, because the group was offered *free* space at the local country library, which has adequate parking and private meeting rooms, but they turned it down and instead infringed on their neighbors' rights.I live in that county the christian news sources have done a very poor and completely biased job of reporting facts, preferring instead to call it religious persecution. Ridiculous. The county has done the exact same thing for weekly poker games. It's not a first amendment issue.I'm also sure this pastor would be the first one to scream to the county if his neighbors started having nightly islamic prayer services at their home Peace.

The Cleveland Browns on Thursday held their yearly conference call with season ticket holders, where those customers can ask president Mike Holmgren and general manager Tom Heckert questions.
There were some good tidbits, and here are the highlights (any bold is my emphasis):
Mike Holmgren: I'm pleased with the direction of the team; it's been an exciting offseason for us for a couple reasons. The coaches are excited about preparing properly; we didn't have that opportunity last year (with the lockout compressing the league's schedule).We're positioned well in this year's draft. We're strategizing. It's important to take that next step as a team. We played good defense, and special teams were OK. On offense, we weren't as productive as we could have been. Offense has been emphasized this offseason. I expect it to be better. Everyone's on notice.There were, as you might expect, plenty of questions about the team's inactivity in free agency. Tom Heckert: We'd love to have a lot of players out there; but it's easier said than done. We have our needs and what our priorities are. Free agency isn't over yet. We hope to add another player down the line.The teams that sign these higher-price guys, they often end up releasing players (for roster and salary purposes). Those are guys we'll take a look at as they get released.Of course, the quarterback also played a big role.Holmgren: We'll be committed to the guy playing for us at any time. We're always going to look for a young guy in the draft.Heckert: Colt (McCoy) has a high ceiling; my job is to get better players around him. When we ran (the ball) well, Colt played very well. I do think Colt has the ability to play in the league. With another year in the system, (with) better players, he has a chance to be really good."And the duo spoke with these customers shortly after Peyton Hillis' deal with Kansas City became official. Holmgren: I was happy for Peyton. There comes a time in some players' lives and clubs' lives when a fresh start is the best thing for both sides. We loved Peyton Hillis.We went through a contract thing where he was disappointed. The injury bug hit him. It was too bad. It broke in the newspapers, and it wasn't fair to the young man. We set goals for this team. There are also economic situations to deal with.
All journalists strive to never make a mistake. At Crain's, we have safeguards built in to eliminate them, and those safeguards usually work. Of course, there's a rare occurrence where a mistake makes the paper; some are worse than others. And while there have been plenty worse in other places, I was quite embarrassed Tuesday when one of mine was brought to my attention; I didn't adhere to those safeguards, and of course got burned. I won't bore you with details of how it happened, but I can tell you that Mike Ostrowski, the Lake Erie Monsters' chief operating officer, is not cheap, as I so eloquently referred to him in a Monday story about the team's ticket prices being hiked. Mike was gracious about it, of course, though apparently the folks at the Monsters' office got a good laugh.So to at least attempt to make up for the error, I asked Sarah Jamieson, the Monsters' communications manager, to ask around the office for ways her colleagues actually would describe Mr. Ostrowski, other than, y'know, cheap.Here's what she turned up: Scott Woodruff — COO of the Canton Charge and formerly the vice president of corporate sales for the Monsters: "O"riginal (Mike goes by "O" around here)Jeff Bowler — senior director of ticket sales and service: BoisterousPam Frasco — senior director of marketing and community relations: PassionateJoe Hamlin — senior Manager of corporate partnerships: PoisedCarl Manteau — group sales manager: OH-IO; this apparently stems from Ostrowski's die-hard sports fandom in Cleveland and Ohio, according to Sarah Jamieson. "He loves all things Cleveland (and Ohio) and wants the city to thrive and loves being part of one of the organizations that is trying to help that happen," she said.

The freedom to conduct food preparation anywhere you wish sums up the entire appeal of the Home Styles Kitchen Cart. Whatever the task entails, this cart is more than up to it with an easy-clean stainless steel top, four utensil drawers and two large interior cabinets with adjustable shelving. A drop-leaf provides greater surface area, and four wheel casters allow for freedom of movement and feature a locking function for safety. A spice rack add further practicality, while a natural wood grain finish has an appearance all it's own.

Comments about Home Styles Furniture Stainless Steel Kitchen Cart with Breakfast Bar in Natural Finish:
This cart is beautiful. It was easy to assembly although it took time. The quality is exceptional and the drawer space is better than what I thought. Some people think the drawer space is not deep enough but I think it serves the purpose for what I wanted it for. It's a great cart!
Love this Island Cart!
By Leslie
from Charleston, WV
About Me Midrange Shopper
I love this island! We are remodeling our kitchen and had taken out a bar section of our countertop that I worked at all the time in order to open up our kitchen. This island is perfect in that I can roll it in and out of the kitchen when needed, have additional workspace and storage and the stainless matches my new appliances. It is build very sturdy and the wheels roll easily. I highly recommend this cart to anyone needing additional workspace.
Great Design & Function
By FODA
from Cleveland, OH
This kitchen island is used for both eating (with flip-down wood panel raised) as well as stainless steel main top ideal for baking & food preparation.The flexibility to have panel extension raised or lowered allows for more space around the island when panel is in lowered position.Designing a larger extension would be ideal in providing more area for eating meals around.[...]
Solid Value
By Power of Cheese
from Earth, North American Continent
I've only had it for a few days but so far so good[...] instructions are clear and specific, there are extras of key pieces, and all parts are labeled for easy assembly. Assembly took me about three hours at a very leisurely pace.It is of reasonably high quality, including the precision of screw holes and such during assembly. The only exception is the back panels under the breakfast bar. They are just a little thin. Other comments regarding the depth of the drawers are accurate but it is only 18" deep so that should be expected. Perhaps the manufacturer should consider another model that is six inches deeper to satisfy this "complaint."All in all very pleased with no complaints. This item is very recommendable.
Wonderful kitchen island
By Jen G
from Montgomery, AL
This item has been so helpful for us. We have a large kitchen, but very little counter space. We really needed a good food prep area and this cart is a winner! Very sturdy, and the leaf matches up perfectly with the stainless steel, so it's easy to work across the entire surface. The drawers are a bit shallow, but serve our needs. We put our measuring cups and spoons in there, as well as infrequently used utensils. Works out great.I marked this as difficult to put together due to the time involved (took my husband about 4 hours) and the fact he had to redrill some of the holes which didn't line up. Other than that, it wasn't too bad and the overall quality is terrific. [...]
A Great Island for any Kitchen!
By Barb
from Michigan
About Me Budget Shopper
This is a great island, especially for the price. I priced so many of these and this was exceptionally low in comparison to most of the others. This has a great top, looks very classy, holds lots of things in the cupboards and drawers, although the drawers are on the smaller side. It has an awesome pull out breakfast nook, but I leave it up all the time with a couple of stools sitting up to the counter. We all really love this island and it adds a lot of class to the kitchen. The only negative about this piece is that the locks on the rollers don't work very well and it doesn't take much to have the island move. It seems the slightest touch will move the island a few inches. Other than that, it is awesome and I would highly recommend it to anyone. Oh also, it wasn't hard to assemble, but it is much easier with two people!
Very nice product
By Law Firm Manager
from Cleveland, Ohio
We purchased this cart to add to our counter space and storage space in our office's kitchen. It was not hard to assemble - FOLLOW THE INSTRUCTIONS and looked great and was sturdy in the end.The only gripe is that the drawers are seemingly a little narrow and not that deep.But the prep surface is great and we've used it twice to prepare food for in-office parties.
Cooking School Kitchen
By The Event Divas of Alaska!
from Anchorage, Alaska
We LOVE this kitchen island! Our last island was a bit too small. This one allows us the space we need when teaching cooking classes, and when family is over. The fold up breakfast bar is an excellent design. The island is heavy weight and sturdy, but it does roll easy. Stainless steel is stainless steel and it will scratch, but that just adds character. The island matches great with our cherry spice colored kitchen cabinets. We could sell a hundred of these carts every time we have folks over. Everyone wants one!
"Perfect Addition"
By KlevelandKim
This cart works perfectly as the center-of-the-kitchen work station & my daughter's breakfast nook. Although the stainless steel side scratched quickly... anyone having ss should expect it (unless you really don't cook)! The drawers ARE shallow/short, but work perfectly for storing utensils (by the stove) and both cabinets hold my deep pots & pressure cooker with space to spare [I chose not to use the shelving]. Overall I WOULD recommend this - sharp looking, well built Cart.

assembly went well.

plan about 2 hours, probably faster with help. I was able to do most everything by myself but an extra pair of hands would have been nice. all parts fit together just as they are intended.

Dog Adoption Debacle Garnishes Gobs of Response
By Patti Pfeiffer
Published: Friday, May 25, 2012 2:40 PM CDT
People are passionate about pets. No wonder the recent column describing a dog adoption process at a local humane society -- which left me not only dogless but my heart chewed to pieces -- generated passionate replies. However, much to my dismay, I discovered "our" new pet was adopted by someone who walked in off of the street during a pet store "adoption event" a week after our application had been submitted and was being processed.
The president of that human society emailed a letter to the editor which was published herein. With column space at a premium, I'm not going to correct her second-hand and/or third-hand information. I was there. I know what happened, how many timely emails were sent and calls made from me, how many hurdles overcome, and hoops jumped. I was vetted more thoroughly than the President of the United States.
My intent was not to bash the humane society or adoption organization. As an animal lover, I totally support their objective and appreciate their volunteers.
However, all the emails received were from people who had similar experience as mine. Weeks later, reader response is still coming in from near and far from wanna-be-rejected pet parents.
From Plano, Donna wrote, "The application process is a joke. It's harder to adopt a pet than a child? I've adopted years ago in Dallas and clearly the process has not changed. I understand that these groups are made up of volunteers. But, if you're going to volunteer, than complete the process and do it right. Clearly, it is and has been a broken, desperate system. A new one is needed and needed NOW. I do not want to purchase a pet from a pet store. They force your hand."
Another reader wrote, "...I had a similar situation with the SPCA...We found a cat we wanted to adopt and I didn't even receive a response to my online application for four days. We ended up going to the city of Lewisville Animal Shelter and found a beautiful tabby who had been at the shelter for over two months. Shelter staff was very knowledgeable and helpful...even gave us coupons for rabies vaccination and a free bag of cat food. I will be going back to them for my next pet. The shelter was very surprising well run and not a scary place like I thought it would be. Thanks again for your column and bringing attention to the fact."
Toni from Coppell wrote, "I raised a litter of kittens and when it was time to adopt them out, I was told they [the local humane society] wasn't going to 'accept' them into the program because they were black... It's not that it's a volunteer organization; it's that some people love the power. It's one person having the power to say no to another person and loving that level of control. I have two adopted kids and I refuse BS like 'home evaluations' it's a dog or cat or ferret for God's sake! Not a child. I have successfully adopted from rescues, two cats and a dog in California, a dog and a ferret here. I have a beautiful cat from Christmas-time that was starving and wandering our neighborhood. The Coppell pound has wonderful people, even helping me place my litter of black kitties without batting an eye.
I myself volunteer at several places and I manage to do my job well. There is no excuse for excessive delays and almost paranoid behavior. Call the vet, look at their application, watch their interaction and let the animal go"
Several people offered adoption websites such as
which lists dogs and their dates to be put down. Flower Mound resident Ralph wrote, "...Just a note that you may want to pass along, since I sense you are an animal lover yourself. There are wonderful groups out there who are always looking for homes for abandoned dogs and cats. We personally recommend STARS and HART, acronyms for two local groups who rescue dogs from shelters, pounds, or whom have been abandoned or given up by their owners. They both have their own websites. We hope that folks will look to these groups of wonderful animal lovers before making a pet store purchase. There are too many dogs out there in need of a good loving home and caring attention.
Amen! And too many are being killed...for no good reason.

Salamander Resort & Spa
Debuting August 2013
Set on 340 acres in the foothills of the Blue Ridge Mountains amid Virginia's famed horse country and lush vineyards, and just 30 minutes to the west of Washington Dulles International Airport, Salamander Resort & Spa is designed to blend into the natural environment in which it sits.
Opening August 2013, the resort features 168 luxurious rooms including 17 suites, a 23,000-square-foot lavish spa and unique "treehouse" treatment rooms, a full-service equestrian center with a 22-stall stable and practice ring, Virginia Piedmont-inspired dining overseen by James Beard-nominated Chef Todd Gray, a dedicated cooking studio, wine bar and a unique array of conference and banquet facilities.
Resort Owner Sheila C. Johnson has created an environmentally sensitive destination by placing 252 of the resort's acres into a conservation easement, and when the property opens, it will be one of the first luxury destination resort and spas in the United States to achieve LEED (Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design) certification.
Rates during peak season at Salamander Resort & Spa range from $425 to $575 per night for a deluxe 540-square-foot guest room, depending on views and unique features such as working fireplaces. Suite pricing ranges from $775 to $3,500 per night. Special group rates and packages for individual travelers are also available.

Janice Park Rivers has established a new QuickJobs scholarship fund in the Midlands Technical College Foundation in memory of her son, Blair Park Rivers.
This new fund will be used to award up to 10 awards in support of the college's QuickJobs programs.
The Blair Park Rivers QuickJobs Scholarship Fund will provide scholarship support in the college's Corporate and Continuing Education division for students in the Cardiac Care Technician, Certified Nursing Assistant and Phlebotomist QuickJobs programs.
"I made this pledge in memory of my son Blair, who understood that he needed to learn a specific skill that could be his career, something he would enjoy rather than pursuing a four-year degree and waiting to see where that led," said Ms. Rivers in making her gift. "I want to help people find meaningful, joyous work that provides a good lifestyle and pride in what they do, and I believe the QuickJobs program provided by the college is a perfect fit."
"We are grateful to Ms. Rivers for providing this generous contribution to the MTC Foundation," said Tim Nelson, Associate Vice President for Development. "Gifts like these from individuals in our community help people get jobs that will provide a livable wage to support themselves and their families."
QuickJobs at Midlands Technical College (MTC) was developed in response to this growing challenge of jobs without people and people without jobs.
As technology continues to impact the skills needed for today's high-growth, high-demand jobs, QuickJobs assists displaced workers by retooling their skills for the new economy.
Training programs range from three weeks to 15 months at an average cost of $2,500 and cover careers in business, healthcare, computer technology, manufacturing and skilled crafts.
Since the launch of the QuickJobs Scholarship Program in the spring of 2010, nearly $300,000 has been contributed to the MTC Foundation by individuals and local business partners.
The MTC Foundation, a group of business leaders from the Midlands, is the structure through which individuals, corporations and other private sector interests can demonstrate their support for the academic programs and economic development services offered by Midlands Technical College. MTC enrolls approximately 18,000 credit students annually, and provides training for 30,000 individuals and services to hundreds of area businesses each year.


text: I got an Omega 8005 about 3 weeks ago and I love it! It only takes a few minutes to clean after juicing (that is a big deal to me) and has done a good job with everything I've juiced in it. The motor is slow and does not heat up the food at all. I haven't made baby food yet, but I have a 4 month old so I will soon! I think you'll like the Omega.

The Principal Financial Well-Being IndexSM: American Workers
The economic outlook brightens as more American workers report feeling secure about the state of the U.S. economy. Despite the increasingly positive view of the economy, American workers remain cautious when assessing their expectations for the next year. Workers also report planning for retirement and share what they plan to do with their tax refunds.
Key findings from the first quarter 2013 report (PDF: 140 KB), include:
- While 40 percent of workers think the economy will improve throughout 2013, a majority (60 percent) still believe the economy will stay the same or worsen.
- Many (44 percent) employees are holding off from making long-term financial commitments, such as buying a home or a car, due to the current state of the economy.
- Americans are planning for their retirement. Only 28 percent said they have not yet planned for financial security in retirement, down from 32 percent last quarter.
- Of the 64 percent of workers who expect to receive a federal or state tax refund, almost half (46 percent) plan to save or invest the refund.

Written by PETA
Last year, Renningers Farmers & Flea Market in Mount Dora, Florida, banned elephant rides after PETA provided evidence of Liebel Family Circus' long list of USDA violations, its history of animal neglect and abuse, and the unavoidable risks posed by elephant rides. Now we are hoping that Daytona Beach, Florida, will follow suit, thanks to footage taken during Liebel's March visit to the city.
In 2005, Liebel Family Circus entered into a settlement agreement with the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) and was assessed a civil penalty of $2,885 for multiple violations of the federal Animal Welfare Act (AWA), including failure to provide adequate space and veterinary care for animals, failure to have an experienced elephant handler, and failure to provide a safety barrier between the animals and the public. And it's easy to see why from this footage. Talk about a disturbing picture: An individual who was charged with controlling an elephant named Nosey holds a toddler by one hand and in the other holds a bullhook—a sharp, steel-tipped device that workers use to strike, stab, hook, prod, and intimidate elephants in order to make them obey. Not only that, but at one point Nosey was allowed to pick up a bucket while people were on her back. If she'd decided to throw the bucket, someone could have been seriously injured.
In light of this evidence of dangerous misconduct at Liebel's stop in Daytona Beach, PETA has sent the footage to the city's mayor along with a letter asking him to support legislation to prohibit elephant rides in the city.
In the wild, elephants travel in family groups, and female elephants stay with their mothers for their entire lives. Elephants who are trapped in circuses and forced to live in boxcars and endure years of abuse often become depressed and neurotic. Nosey, Liebel's only elephant, has been with the circus for decades and has already attacked at least one of Liebel's employees. In 2004, Nosey injured a worker, and after you read the worker's affidavit to the USDA, you can't really blame the elephant for her outrage. In the report, the worker recounts the frequent use of electric shock devices on the elephant and details an incident in which a trainer "used the bullhook handle, turned off the lights in the performance ring and beat the elephant. He at the time directed others to take part in that by using other objects such as [a] sledge hammer and shovel handles. At that time, the elephant was staked down by all four legs …." The employee also states that Nosey's attack "was not the first time the elephant had reached or struck out at people who worked at the circus."
Want to help shut down circuses that abuse and neglect animals? Refuse to go and tell your friends and family members to do the same.

BREWERTON, N.Y. -- It may have been a mild day on land, but the water was still chilly at Oneida Shores Sunday. But that didn't stop hundreds of brave souls from running into the lake.
The sixth annual Central New York Polar Plunge raised money for Special Olympics New York.
Participants we spoke with say the good cause and support from their friends and family helped make the cold water bearable.
"Once we went in there, you didn't even think about it. You just go. I've got my daughter with me, my coworkers, my husband. Brought them all in today," Syracuse resident Deyanira Flores said.
"We just wanted to give back like we always do and have a great time doing it, show our kids what it means to give to a great cause," Munnsville resident Rob Wojsiat said.
Two Special Olympians, Diane Budnar of Cazenovia and Andrew Bowman of Camillus, helped kick everything off with the torch run.

A famous blend used by top chefs around the world is now available for your own home. Arabica beans are electronically selected and slowly roasted in two different degrees: "Normale" (delicate aroma, lighter aftertaste) and "Scuro" (stronger and with more character). The grinding is calibrated for all espresso machines, but excellent results are also obtained with the traditional American "drip" coffee machines. Also available in Decaf. A can contains 8.8oz of ground coffee. Available in lots of 1 or 2 cans, or cases of 6.
Green coffee beans are usually shipped in 132lb bags, (60 Kilograms) and world-wide production statistics are compiled on the number of bags.

Michael Rosso ♦ Lets all do our part and start brewing more coffee
MannyGate7 Very informative thank you!
Philip Coats Interesting to see that coffee comes from such a wide variety of places. Curious to know just how much the taste of each varies (with a similar roast temperature) due to soil composition and other localized variables.
Dean Dahlstedt Absolutely amazing that coffee is the 4th most popular drink in the world, yet it appears to be produced in such small quantities in many regions. This truly is a special drink. I now know why Hawaiian coffee so expensive. Only 100 bags a year! How many times have I roasted a Panama Esmeralda Gesha or a Kenya AA without realizing that those are the very best of only 90 and 850 bags per year respectively. These fact really make me realize how truly lucky we are to be able to enjoy the very best of this wonderful drink. Great article, thanks.
paul hees Great stuff, a lot of interesting information presented in a condensed but appealing format. As a big fan of both, it never occurred to me that Ethiopia produces 8 times as much as Kenya. Wondering if China is still growing- thought Yunnan was on course to rival Vietnam? Thanks!
As you're enjoying the last rays of summer, consider that in a few years you could be lathering on the coffee to prevent skin cancer. Findings published in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Science suggests that chemicals commonly found in coffee have the ability to absorb UV radiation when applied directly to the skin. Researchers at Rutgers University genetically engineered mice to suppress the same enzyme that caffeine does in humans and have found that they were slower to develop skin cancer. Because of its ability to suppress ATR, the enzyme responsible for turning damaged skin cells cancerous, scientists have suggested that caffeine could be added to sunscreens to boost protection levels.
In a strange twist, caffeine molecules may also help you develop a nice tan in addition to protecting your skin from tumors and cancer. Caffeine has actually been shown to stimulate pigment cells, urging them to produce more color. So, a safer tan may not be too far on the horizon.
If you're tired of the same old drinks, break out of the rut with a creative latte. This month's recipe is perfect for the adventurous latte lovers out there.
- 3 shots of espresso
- 6 oz of milk
- ½ oz of Monin Dark Chocolate Syrup
- ½ oz of Monin Caramel Syrup
- ¼ oz of Monin Hazelnut Syrup
- Ice
In a tall 16oz glass, combine the espresso, syrup and milk. Stir the contents and add ice. Garnish with whipped cream, if desired, and enjoy!
With St. Patrick's Day right around the corner, may the luck...and drinks, of the Irish be with you. Given the upcoming festivities, now is as good a time as any to take a look at the history of one of the most (in)famous, drinks in the world—the Irish Coffee.
In true Celtic fashion, think Leprechauns and pots of gold, the origins of the Irish Coffee begins with a local folklore...Legend has it that the drink was invented in a cafe at the now-defunct Foynes Airport. In 1943, on a particularly nasty winter evening, a flight bound for Botwood, Newfoundland made the critical decision to return to Foynes after several hours in the air. Consider that 1943 was during WWII and commercial air travel was really in its infancy—think well-heeled men and women on a flying-boat voyage. The circumstances of the diverted flight were trying at best and left passengers a little bit more than peeved.
Upon making the decision to head back to Foynes, the captain reportedly sent a Morse-code message to the control tower, alerting ground operations personnel of the impending return. At the terminal, preparations were made to welcome back the crew and passengers. I know, you're skeptical already; but keep in mind, this was the 1940s...flying was a glitzy affair.
Back to the regularly scheduled story...Head chef Joe Sheridan of the airport restaurant was hastily asked to make something to warm the passengers and lift their spirits. He decided to...well...add a little spirit to their drinks. After all what could keep you warmer and happier than a hot coffee and some good old Irish whiskey? As the night progressed and everybody had been served, one of the passengers approached Sheridan to thank him for the hospitality. Making small talk, the passenger asked if Brazilian coffee had been used to prepare the drink...To which Sheridan responded "No, that was Irish Coffee." The rest is history.
From that night forward, Irish Coffee was served to all passengers going through Foynes Airport. The tradition continues to this day; dignitaries arriving at Shannon Airport are still welcomed with a warm cup of Irish Coffee. Want to celebrate St. Patrick's Day in style? Try this authentic Irish Coffee Recipe:
Joe Sheridan's Original Irish Coffee
Preheat an Irish Coffee Mug using hot water. Try our Stout, Classic or Pedestal version of the mug. Pour freshly brewed coffee into the mug; add sugar and whiskey. Top with cream.
Jesse Nice Another version... ^_^
Cream as rich as an Irish brogue
Coffee as strong as a friendly hand
Sugar as sweet as the tongue of a rogue
Whiskey as smooth as the wit of the land
BIll Price Love your website, and that's a nice story about Irish coffee, but... the recipe leaves a lot to be desired.
3ml is about a half tsp whiskey. Perhaps you meant 30ml (1 oz.) or 3 Tbs (1 jigger). Similarly, 2 tsp of whipped cream is an almost invisible amount. More like 1/4 cup (4 tablespoons).
My favorite addition to Irish coffe is to wet the rim with whiskey, and frost it with raw sugar after the glass is warmed. Flaming the glass w 2 tsp whiskey helps seal it to the rim.
Angelo Palmieri I love Irish coffee in winter when I need something warm and sweet to help me make the day. I like your recipe, Bill, and one of this day I will try it. Thanks, AP

Great coffee. Consistent quality and great flavor. Makes great crema with Gaggia machine. I have exclusively use this illy coffee for over 3 years now.
I have enjoyed the flavor of the bold Illy Espresso dark roast for about 6 months now. I prefer a dark roast that is not bitter but smooth as this one is. Some of the others I have tried that were highly recommened were more of a medium roast. Being from the souther region of the states I am used to a richer, more robust coffee but I personally draw the line at the "coffees with chicory". Again, too bitter but I must say that following Katrina when we were without power we brewed slow drip coffee on the gas stove on the spackleware coffee pot that was my husband's grandmothers. It may just have been the surroundings following that event but that was some of the best coffee I have ever tasted. No, I regret to say it was not espresso but it certainly could have been that day! Illy is vacuum sealed with regards to being a ground coffee and I have been exceptionally pleased with it.
I drink double or triple cappuccinos and have for 11 plus years now. I tasted my fitst one on vacation in San Diego and became immediately hooked. Do not get me wrong.very little stands between me and my first cup of coffee in the morning aside from walking the pups if they're up (one can always hope). However, after working as a barista and tasting a cappuccino there is no substitute.

Electronic-Waste Recycling in Full Swing in PA
Throwing out that old TV? Not so fast, the Pennsylvania Covered Device Recycling Act has taken effect. – Also, a list of upcoming e-waste collection events throughout the county.
Residents and businesses across Montgomery County, and throughout the state, are no longer allowed to toss out their old TVs, computers or other electronic devices with their regular trash pickup.
Instead, they will have to adhere to the Pennsylvania Covered Device Recycling Act (CDRA), which was passed in 2010 and went into effect Jan. 24.
According to a recent press release by the Pennsylvania Department of Environmental Protection (DEP), unless a municipality has a curbside electronics collection program, trash haulers will not collect electronic devices and its components, and will leave them on the curbside. Such electronic devices must be taken to an electronics collection location for proper recycling.
"This law is an important step toward further reducing the amount of waste disposed in our landfills," DEP Secretary Mike Krancer said in the release.
According to DEP literature on CDRA, as technology advances, electronic products become obsolete and "constitute one of the fastest growing streams of today's consumer and commercial waste."
Such e-waste contain both precious recyclable raw material, as well as hazardous materials that, when left in landfills, raise environmental and health concerns, according to the DEP.
The CDRA requires that manufacturers, retailers and consumers of covered devices take certain measures to ensure that such devices are properly recycled.
"We think it's great. Before there wasn't a consistent means of recycling such materials," Charles Nygard, co-founder of the electronic recycling company eForce Compliance, said.
According to the CDRA, certain certifications must be achieved before a company may become an electronics recycling facility, including the R2 (Responsible Recycling Practices Standard) Certification and the e-Stewards Certification.
Founded in 1982, Nygard said the Philadelphia-based recycing company was among the first electronic recycling companies to achieve such certifications.
Nygard said nearly all electronic devices contain potentially hazardous heavy metals, which make putting them in landfills undesirable and potentially dangerous to the environment.
He also explained that the process of recycling electronics is both costly and meticulous. If the device cannot be reused, it is taken a part and stripped of precious metals and then given to vendors for metal reclamation.
"We track material down to its raw material state," Nygard said.
While consumers can bring their electronic devices to the eForce Compliance operation facility, or to other electronic recyling companies, eForce Compliance also provides free electronic collection events throughout the city and suburbs. These collection events are in partnership with municipalities, nonprofit groups and civic associations.
According to Nygard, eForce Compliance collected over 3-million pounds of electronics through its collection programs in 2012 and expects to nearly double the amount this year. [See list below for dates and location sites]
Most small, household electronic items will be accepted, but not larger appliances, such as refrigerators or washers and dryers. Residents should contact their respective municipalities to inquire about bulk trash collection.
According to Nygard, it will be up to the individual municipalities to enforce the law, but hopes that environmental education will guide consumers toward proper electronic recycling.
In addition to holding the collection events, Nygard said eForce Compliance was also the first to partner with the Environmental Protection Agency in its Sustainability Partnership Program. This program connects members with schools and municipalities to help promote recycling education.
Montgomery County also hosts an Electronic Collection Program. According to a county spokesperson, the 2013 schedule is expected to be released in the coming weeks.
According to a flyer from Montgomery County's 2012 schedule of electronic collection program events, items that would be accepted at electronic collection events include, but are not limited to:
- Computer Monitors
- Printers
- Scanners
- Fax Machines
- Keyboards
- VCRs/DVD players
- Cable/Satellite Recievers
- Cell Phones
- Stereo and Radio equipment
- Microwaves
- Vaccuums
- Other small household appliances
For more information, visit http://eforcecompliance.com or the Montgomery County recycling website.

I can see an unintended consequence here. When you have a recycling dropoff within a reasonable distance only about four times a year, and it's just in a four hour window, we're going to see a lot more old junk dumped by the side of the road.
5:52 pm on Friday, January 25, 2013
The Dreaded Unintended Consequences. We Know that they will always appear and yet we regularly fail to even try to identify them in advance. You make an excellent point. The trash collectors should have been 'invited' to participate. A once a year drive incorporated in to the regular trash collection would be far more effective. Nygard could partner with Allied (or whatever name they are using now, Evergreen etc.
There is not one collection on this list that is in the greater Lansdale area.
9:53 pm on Friday, January 25, 2013
That's always the problem with this. It's a great idea, but the implementation is terrible. There are far too few collections, and even when you do get to one, you often have to spend an hour in line. It's just not worthwhile unless you have a lot of stuff to dispose of. So instead people consider that even under the best intentions, their options are to either 1) track down a drop off, travel there, then wait in ridiculously long lines to dispose of their items, or 2) simply put it in the trash, with no real consequence for doing so.

I can surely appreciate your concerns. Our company, eForce Compliance, has been successful in reducing the length of time to wait at our events under 5 minutes. We are the only company in the area that specializes in collection events and we staff only professionals with collection experience. This makes a huge difference as many other organizations who sponsor events who employ the use of volunteers and are woefully undermanned. We have also heard of the horrific wait times at the 5 county events and if we get that contract these lines will disappear. We agree with having more consistency in the collection process but since we are not reimbursed from the manufacturers right now we have to limit our service. We hope to expand in the future.

This isn't exactly "a consistent means of recycling such materials." This is rather scattered and will mean long lines and frustration.

Many of our local communities already have voluntary e-waste recyling at designated areas in the townships. Taking advantage of these in addition to the "events" is a step forward for our kids.
I would like to see local "pick-ups" available for items (monster TVs, etc) too heavy to haul in or for folks that can't drive the e-waste to the events.
Charles Nygard

Also remember the new law references the use of only certified recyclers to the R2, e-Stewards and ISO 14001 standards. There are many who offer to preform the service for free but are not certified as the certification process is extensive and few companies can meet the high environmental health and safety requirements of the program. Recycle right with only certified recyclers who have the credentials required by the State.
6:29 pm on Saturday, January 26, 2013
The companies that sell these devices should be involved - voluntarily or not - in efforts to recycle them. They reap all the benefits while society is stuck with the repercussions.
Douglas Weiss

I would rather the companies who sell the stuff not be involved at all .its an open field with room to create small businesses that handle the pick up of electronic waste. Or the average person like me to pick them up disassemble them scrap the materials and recycle the plastic

"Such e-waste contain both precious recyclable raw material, as well as hazardous materials that, when left in landfills, raise environmental and health concerns, according to the DEP."
Sounds like they found a way to profit off of this waste! If the State of PA was so concerned about our environment, they would ban Fracking in PA. forever!!!

La Ville de Pins in Gangnam-gu, South Korea, was recently renovated by Seoul-based studio BANG by MIN. The restaurant has a very elegant appearance, suited for its French-inspired atmosphere and cuisine.
According to the architects, the original building of the restaurant visually stands out in its neighborhood, due to the white exterior. Straight lines and and an overall minimalism characterize the design of the L-shaped restaurant, a choice which the architect justifies as follows: "I wanted to express the spatial harmony of East and West. I think Eastern spaces follow the world of harmony and have the more delicate components, while the Western spaces follow that of control and order. I wanted Korea and France with the concepts different from each other to strike the balance between them and to be one as another world. I created a story of this space by making the sequence of spatial components and expressing the concept with design." The hollow spaces of the restaurant are expected to be liven up and given color by the presence of customers.

Tea party activists spoke out Thursday in favor of dismantling Kentucky's new health insurance exchange before it gets off the ground as a way for individuals and businesses to shop online for health coverage in a state plagued by high disease rates.
A dozen or so of the conservative activists attended a board meeting for the Kentucky Health Benefit Exchange, which will offer a website that's supposed to make picking health insurance similar to buying an airline ticket from an online travel site. The exchange will allow consumers to compare costs and benefits from various health plans. They'll also be able to find out if they are eligible for government help with their premiums for private insurance.
About 300,000 people are expected to purchase their health insurance through the statewide exchange, said its executive director, Carrie Banahan.
"It's going to be very consumer friendly," she said in an interview.
Tea party activist David Adams said the exchange creates an unaccountable bureaucracy with too much influence over Kentucky's health-care system.
"I want this whole thing to go away," he told reporters after the advisory board met.
Adams voiced support for a bill that would require legislative approval of the exchange. The measure, sponsored by a handful of Republicans, was introduced in the GOP-led Senate during the first week of the 2013 General Assembly session that resumes next month. Democrats control the Kentucky House.
Gov. Steve Beshear issued an executive order last year to create the statewide exchange. It's set to open on Jan. 1, 2014. He was among a group of governors who chose to have their states set up and run their own health insurance markets. A number of states turned down the offer to run the markets, putting the task on the federal government.
Adams said Kentucky's exchange is exerting taxing authority it doesn't possess, and said that's among the reasons its existence should be tied to legislative approval.
"If we took a vote of the people, which we haven't done, the people would not allow them to have this power," he said of the exchange.

Assistant boss stole stock from Carlisle shop to sell on eBay
Last updated at 12:37, Wednesday, 15 August 2012
The assistant manager of an outdoors equipment shop in Carlisle admitted stealing stock so he could sell it on the online eBay auction site.
Martin Riley, 32, admitted stealing cash and goods worth £1,386 from the Cotswold shop in English Street between January and July of this year.
Formerly a man of good character, Riley, of East Crescent, Aspatria, told magistrates that he has now moved back in with his parents while he sorts out his life.
After entering his guilty plea, he said of his crime: "They were the acts of a fool.
"Moving back to my parents has been a stark lesson, and I now know that I can't afford to live beyond my means any more.
"I'm seeking help."
Adrienne Harris, prosecuting, said the defendant's court appearance yesterday was his first and so represented a sad day in his life.
She said Riley had worked as assistant manager at the Carlisle store since May of last year.
His crime came to light last month when the manager noticed that a pair of Oakley sunglasses disappeared from a display cabinet.
"Only staff had access to the cabinet key," said Miss Harris.
"But no member of staff appeared to know anything about it but checks showed the glasses had not been sold."
The manager later found an office computer was logged in, revealing it was left open on the eBay account of the defendant, which showed he was using the website to sell the stolen glasses.
When confronted, Riley admitted taking the sunglasses, and taking £130 cash from the shop's petty cash.
He went on to admit taking and selling other items of stock from the shop, including a tent, sold on eBay for £140; a jacket, sold for £100; and a sleeping bag.
He also said he had taken around £200 from the shop's safe, and said that he felt ashamed of his actions.
"He said he had debts of approximately £5,000, having racked that amount up on credit cards in living beyond his means," continued the prosecutor.
"He said his habit of buying and spending had got out of hand but he desperately wanted to pay back Cotswold."
The total amount missing from the shop was over £3,000 but the business had recouped some of that from his wages, added Miss Harris.
Magistrates imposed a one-year community order, and ordered Riley to co 60 hours of unpaid work in the community.
He must also pay court costs of £85 and pay compensation totalling £1,386 to Cotswold.

Very Disappointed
By Qballrail
from South Sound Area, WA
Was originally very excited to receive this product after reading the reviews, but now not so pleased. Started cleaning my G-III Bomber (my FAVORITE) at the collar before moving to the rest to test the product and it just didn't clean. The sheets dried out very fast and when the collar dried, it HARDENED! I am so disappointed and now my jacket may be ruined! It was not THAT dirty, just a little sweat on the collar, and normal dirt on the rest... only worn on special occasions. Tried reconditioning it but I'm afraid it's not returning to it's soft state. I am sooo disappointed in this AND Wilson's Leather. It's not like I can afford to just replace my jacket, either. I would NOT recommend this product because I am now out a nice leather bomber.

These wipes work, but I had to use several to get out tough dirt on my leather handbag straps. Still didn't take off entire stains. Leather naturally darkens when you use it. Make sure you keep the container closed tight otherwise the wipes will dry out.

London, May 20 (ANI): The phrase that today's hectic parents use most often in response to their kids' request to play with them is: "Maybe later", revealed a new study.
Researchers found that, despite children being parents" "main priority", 80 per cent admit they don"t devote enough time to them.
In fact, the report found working parents spend less than an hour a day giving their kids one-to-one attention – with the average child getting just 36 minutes with their mother or father.
Children"s responses to the survey painted a similar picture, claiming parents are too preoccupied with working, tidying and checking emails to address their needs.
The study of 3,000 working parents and their children by car insurance provider Admiral found that almost eight out of ten children said they were fed up of being parked in front of the television instead of being entertained.
The trend also showed adults are parenting "remotely" from their laptops or kitchen sink and continually promising their attention "later".
""The generation of "Maybe Later" kids shows a worrying trend of parents not spending as much time as they should with their children," the Telegraph quoted James Carnduff of Admiral, which conducted the research as part of its Family Journeys campaign, as saying.
""Parents admit their children aren"t getting enough of their attention, and children are also feeling the impact of this, desperate for their parents to spend more time with them.
""We live in ever busier times with many parents taking work home with them once they leave the office, but it seems this is having a negative effect on the relationship they have with their children.
""Parents need to remember that playing with your kids is a great way to relieve stress and forget about work.
""The responses from the children we asked show that parents can"t get away with simply sticking their children in front of the TV as that"s simply no replacement for quality time," he added.
The research also found on top of a normal full time working week, busy parents log onto their emails as soon as they get home from work at least four nights a week.
And at least one of the two parents misses dinner twice a week due to working late.
When at home, 70 per cent of mums and dads admit they spend much of their spare time cooking and cleaning rather than playing with their children.
And 56 per cent often find themselves promising to play with their children after they have finished a bit of work, checked their emails or completed household chores.
But kids are fed up with being treated like second best.
Two thirds said mum and dad are always saying they"ll help with homework or play "later".
Six in ten children said they wished their parents worked less and 55 per cent wished they would leave the cleaning until after they went to bed.
Sixty eight per cent said they would like it if their parents had more time to play with them.
""Trying to balance work and home life can be difficult in modern society, but simple things like going on trips as a family can be easy and fun, and don"t need to cost a lot of money," said Carnduff.
""We"re encouraging families to take more trips out together; these family memories are the things our kids remember from their childhood.
""Saying "maybe later" to children needs to become a thing of the past for parents, as the results of our survey show that the nation"s children are well and truly fed up," he added. (ANI)
