First Look: Lebanese-Armenian at Almayass in the Flatiron
Lebanese restaurants aren't rare in this city, but they aren't especially common either—a shame for New Yorkers who'd rather pig out on eggplant and yogurt than foie gras and pork belly. Lebanese cuisine is Southern Mediterranean meets Middle Eastern, and can be as conservative or as exotic as you care for. At the newly opened, surprisingly fancy Almayass in the Flatiron, both routes are open to you. Want to stick to pita, hummus, and kebabs? No problem. Curious about quail egg-topped Lebanese salumi, beet root dips, or bulgur-studded tartar? They can make that happen.
This isn't the first incarnation of Almayass, a family business that now has restaurants in Beirut and Kuwait and franchises in Abu Dhabi and Qatar. The current owners, brother and sister team Varak and Alidz Alexandrian, have taken over the business from their parents. Their father, an Armenian transplant to Lebanon, began Almayass in Beirut as a Lebanese restaurant with Armenian influences, which includes the addition of chilies and a number of pasta- and pastry-based dishes like mantee (beef dumplings) and bureks. Their mother has decorated the Almayass restaurants since the beginning, and is responsible for sourcing may of the impressive pieces of art in the New York branch. all made by Lebanese artists.
Homestyle-but-dressed-up small plates are the main event here, which the menu divides into hot and cold sections—about 45 in all (there's a smaller entree section as well). Expect a wealth of dips to swipe up with thin Lebanese bread. Beyond several hummus variations you'll find mashed charred eggplant, mouhammara (walnut, roasted red pepper, and pomegranate molasses), and moutabbal Almayass ($9; pictured above), an Almayass original of puréed beets with lemon, tahini, and garlic.
Vegetable-forward dishes are plentiful, such as rice-stuffed eggplant topped with olive oil and yogurt ($9), stuffed grape leaves, pickles, and okra. But you'll also find plenty of grilled meat with sweet and sour pomegranate sauces, flaky pastries stuffed with cheese, meat, nuts, and vegetables, and Armenian classics like mantee ($15), which is baked in a ceramic dish and topped with a garlicky yogurt sauce. Harder to find cured meats also make appearances, like a spiced soujuk sausage and basterma, Armenian dried beef that tastes like Italian bresola.
The sophisticated but homey menu is priced surprisingly well for a restaurant this spacious and attractive (to say nothing of its Flatiron location). Expect Almayass to be popular with office lunchers looking for a taste of something different, including those who often have to drag along less adventurous eaters.

Mom allowed teen to set himself on fire for Facebook
CHARLOTTE, N.C. — Charlotte-Mecklenburg Police say a mother knowingly allowed her son to douse himself in fingernail polish and set himself on fire.
It's part of a Facebook challenge that encourages people to post a video of themselves on fire.
CMPD's Youth Crimes Unit was alerted to the video featuring a Charlotte 16-year-old in late July.
Youth Crimes Detectives and Social Services investigated the incident. They say the teen's mother, 41-year-old Janie Lachelle Talley, was aware of the event and facilitated the recording. Others put out the fire. The teen suffered minor burns to his chest and neck.
Talley was arrested without incident. She is charged with contributing to the delinquency of a juvenile.
Facebook has removed many of these videos and CMPD discourages everyone from copying the activity.

White Sox Assured of Second-Place Finish
Despite my outburst on September 18 when I wrote here that I couldn't wait for this season to end, I'm following the Pale Hose to the end.
While the Sox have long since been eliminated, I want them to finish strong and am relieved that as a result of last night's 5-2 win over the Red Sox they have clinched second place.
With that win and four games to go, the Good Guys are at 85 victories with an outside shot at 89 if they capture the finale against Boston and sweep the Tribe this weekend. It may not amount to all that much and won't vault us into the postseason, but it'll make the entry into the offseason a little easier to take.
Farewell to Freddy?: It's too early to speculate about Freddy Garcia's future, but whatever happens he exceeded all expectations this year and a case could be made that he was the club's most reliable starter. Garcia finished the year at 12-6 with his impressive performance last night and if it weren't for a few blown saves, he could easily have won at least three or four more. Garcia will always be remembered fondly by Sox fans for his role in the 2005 championship run and his highly-competitive nature.

Bilateral relations and further military cooperation were the topics of discussion by Yemeni President Ali Abdullah Saleh and Russian defense minister Igor Sergeyev at a meeting in Sanaa Sunday, reported AFP Sunday.
The agency added that the Yemeni president received a letter from Russian President Vladimir Putin, which dealt with enhancing bilateral relations.
Sergeyev headed a Russian delegation that traveled to Sanaa to celebrate the country's 10th anniversary of the unification of North and South Yemen.
During the visit, Saleh and Sergeyev discussed further military cooperation, the agency said.
Some 1,200 guests, including representatives from 47 countries watched a colorful parade that showed Russian-built MiG-29 and Sukhoi-27 planes, Scud missiles and T-72 tanks
Meanwhile, Yemeni Prime Minister Abdelkarim Iryani called Sunday for a fresh start in Arab relations, AP reported Monday.
The call came as Yemen celebrated the 10th anniversary of its unification with a military parade, jet fighters flying overhead and calls for leaving old Arab differences in the past, AP added.
"We call for solidarity and want to bypass disputes and start with a clean slate and look toward a new future," Al Iryani was quoted as saying before celebrations began in San'a's Sabeen square - (Several Sources)

- London 2012 - Cycling
Team GB continued their dominance in the velodrome as the women struck gold in the team pursuit.
The trio of Dani King, Laura Trott and Joanna Rowsell hammered USA in world record time of 3:14.051 to secure a fourth British gold on the track.
Rowsell got the home favourites off to a blistering start on the first lap, and they never relinquished their advantage as they powered to victory by nearly six seconds to break their own world record for the sixth consecutive race.
Australia were pipped to bronze by Canada, who finished third in a time of 3:17.915, which was faster than the American's effort in the final.
Jason Kenny remains on course for victory in the men's sprint after cruising into the quarter-finals. Kenny, who broke the Olympic record as he set the fastest time in qualifying, barely broke a sweat as he defeated South Africa's Bernard Esterhuizen in a time of 10.363.
The 2011 world champion, who was picked for the men's sprint ahead of 2008 gold medallist Sir Chris Hoy, will face Malaysia's Azizulhasni Awang in the last eight.
Meanwhile, Ed Clancy kept his hopes of a second medal alive as he sits in fourth place in the men's omnium. Clancy, who already has one Olympic gold in the men's team pursuit on Friday, is well placed at the halfway stage of the multi-discipline event.
After a blistering start, winning the 250m flying lap, Clancy slipped down the standings after finishing 11th in the 30km points race, but moved back up after a fifth place in the crowd-pleasing elimination race.

Sotomayor's take-no-guff demeanor could alter court dynamics
WASHINGTON — Judge Sonia Sotomayor can be blunt, aggressive and impatient. So get ready for another public debate, and probably some insinuations, about her judicial temperament.
Twenty-two years ago, Robert Bork's Supreme Court nomination foundered in part over similar questions. Sotomayor's nomination resurrects the phrase but now it's packed with different meaning.
"It's her style," said New York-based lawyer Julia Heit, who counts herself among Sotomayor's fans and who's practiced in Sotomayor's 2nd U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals for three decades. "She wants answers. She wants the attorneys who appear before her to be prepared. And she's demanding, as she well should be.
"As an aside, I should say life will be easier when I don't have to confront her."
White House officials consider Sotomayor's take-no-guff temperament a sign that she can hold her own among the Supreme Court's aggressively conservative justices, starting with Antonin Scalia. They also know, however, that too much feistiness can undercut coalition building. Quietly, they surveyed Sotomayor's appellate court colleagues about her temperament, among other things.
With Bork, said David Yalof, a University of Connecticut associate professor, judicial temperament "was a proxy" for doubts about Bork's ability to empathize with the poor and underprivileged. With Sotomayor, by contrast, critics suggest that it's the actual temper that's the issue.
Jeffrey Rosen, a George Washington University law professor, first broadcast the complaints about Sotomayor in a widely circulated New Republic article, based largely on anonymous comments from law clerks and lawyers. Rosen's criticisms tracked lawyers' comments compiled in the nonpartisan Almanac of the Federal Judiciary, which is a kind of Fodor's guide to judges.
Sotomayor earned considerable praise among the lawyers quoted in the almanac. However, she also elicited critiques that range from "she can be a terror on the bench" and "she is temperamental and excitable" to "she can be a bit of a bully" and "she can get harsh at oral argument."
All told, her temperament drew a dozen highly critical comments. Another appellate judge who was considered for the Supreme Court opening, Diane Wood of the Chicago-based 7th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals, has uniformly positive almanac reviews concerning judicial temperament.
Sotomayor's colleague and former Yale Law School professor, Judge Guido Calabresi, became aware of the anonymous sniping after she joined him on the 2nd Circuit in 1998. He eventually concluded that the complaints reflected sexism among male attorneys.
"They didn't like the idea of a woman being as strong as her male colleagues," Calabresi said in an interview.
He further characterized Sotomayor as a "wonderful colleague" who doesn't mince words. He said she had "in a not insignificant number of cases changed my mind . . . both by charm, but mainly by the force of her legal argument."
The forcefulness — or fearlessness — showed even before Sotomayor graduated from law school. While she was at Yale in the late 1970s, The Washington Post reported at the time, she filed a discrimination complaint against a Washington law firm after a partner asked her questions that she considered objectionable.
The law firm subsequently apologized, twice, for the questions, which included asking Sotomayor whether she thought she would have been accepted to Yale Law School if she weren't Puerto Rican.
Heit said she didn't buy the idea that Sotomayor was criticized periodically now because she was a woman, but neither does she consider the judge's questioning to be bullying. Straight talk, she said, comes with the appellate territory.
"You are well over your time, so let's wrap this," Sotomayor told one federal prosecutor in a February 2008 oral argument.
Earlier, Sotomayor had bluntly confronted the attorney for the We the People Foundation, chastising him for advocating a particular legal view "even though you know, even though you know, that every court has taken a contrary position to your own."
Efrem Fischer, as a New York assistant attorney general, lost a case before Sotomayor. Nonetheless, he said he had no complaints about her temperament. Fischer, a Republican who's now in private practice, praised her as "one of the most prepared jurists I've ever argued before on every level."
Henry Mazurek, a defense attorney who's argued cases before Sotomayor, added that he thought the criticism about her temperament most likely came from prosecutors who were unaccustomed to being held to task.
"She ran a tight court," Mazurek said, "and that can result in some lawyers saying that she has a difficult temperament."

With a surgeon's precision on the mound and an angry bar bouncer's aggression at the plate, the Tampa Bay Rays methodically destroyed the struggling Astros on Monday night.
Quite simply, the Astros were overmatched at the plate and on the mound while opening the four-game series with a 12-0 loss at Minute Maid Park.
The Astros, who were outhit 17-2, could not have imagined a more lopsided defeat before a crowd of 12,722.
"It was just one of those nights that you just chalk up and we say we didn't play well and we move on," Astros manager Bo Porter said. "It's not too much to dwell about. It's not too many good things that happen and we move to the next game."
With their fourth consecutive loss and sixth defeat in seven games, the Astros (30-53) officially fell to the worst record in Major League Baseball.
Rays lefthander Matt Moore (11-3) threw seven scoreless innings while giving up only two hits and three walks with nine strikeouts to move into a tie for the second-most victories in the American League this season.
Conversely, Astros lefthander Dallas Keuchel (4-5) gave up eight hits and five runs with five walks and four strikeouts over 42⁄3 innings.
"It basically boils down to not making pitches with two outs," Keuchel said.
On a night in which Rays third baseman Ryan Roberts hit a pair of home runs and left fielder Sean Rodriguez had a career-high four hits with a pair of doubles and three RBIs, the Rays got all the runs they needed with a three-run rally in the third inning.
"It was just a tough, frustrating game watching them score the runs and just being on defense all day and watching it happen," said first baseman Chris Carter, who accounted for half of the Astros' hits while going 1-for-3. "Moore was tough today. We had two hits off him and he went seven innings. A lot of quick innings out of him and then we were on defense for a long time. It makes it tough."
Tampa Bay third baseman Evan Longoria was out of the lineup for the third straight game with plantar fasciitis in his right foot, but the Rays don't plan on placing him on the disabled list.
He took ground balls before the game.
Manager Joe Maddon said Longoria felt better Monday and they hope he can play sometime in the four-game series.
"It's still a day-by- day situation," he said.
The Rays added two runs in the fifth, four in the seventh and three in the eighth inning as their seventh, eighth and ninth hitters each had three hits.
Wil Myers led off the decisive third inning with a walk. Former Astros prospect Ben Zobrist followed with a double to left. One out later, Elkins High graduate James Loney gave the Rays a 1-0 lead with a sacrifice fly.
One pitch later, Roberts deposited a two-run home run into the Crawford Boxes to give the Rays a 3-0 lead.
With two outs in the fifth, the Rays added two more runs on Jose Lebaton's RBI single down the third-base line and Sam Fuld's RBI single to right.
"I put myself in those situations," Keuchel said. "I think I've been on a good roll, with no walks and attacking guys. Today was just one of those days where I couldn't get one more pitch. I felt that in the fifth I made a few good pitches to the catcher and to Fuld.
"They just got enough wood on it to get it out to the outfield and get it past (third baseman Matt) Dominquez. That's the biggest disappointment."
Fuld drove in another run in the seventh with a single to center, giving the Rays a 6-0 lead. Desmond Jennings followed with an RBI single up the middle, and Rodriguez drove in another run with a single to left.
Myers then greeted Hector Ambriz with an RBI single up the middle.
Rodriguez, who was 4-for-6, gave the Rays a 12-0 lead with a two-run double off the left-center field wall.
"What was the score, 12-0 and we had two hits?" first baseman Chris Carter said after going 1-for-3. "That's tough."

The Miami Dolphins have one of the building blocks for their revamped offensive line.
NFL Media Insider Ian Rapoport reported Thursday, per a source who has seen the contract, that the team signed first-round pick Ja'Wuan James, the No. 19 overall selection in May's draft. The team later announced the move.
Unique in the deal? It's the first time a No. 19 pick has secured a fully guaranteed contract (skill, injury and cap) under the new CBA, per Rapoport. James received a four-year deal worth approximately $8.4 million with a signing bonus of $4.45 million. That's far more money than the No. 19 slot typically receives, Rapoport noted.
James is slated to start at right tackle on Day 1 and will represent one-quarter of the new line following the Richie Incognito-Jonathan Martin controversy. The only holdover is center Mike Pouncey.
James was durable at Tennessee, setting the university benchmark for career starts with 49.
NFL Media draft analyst Nolan Nawrocki called James "very smart, mature and highly respected."
That's just the kind of locker room presence the Dolphins need after a disastrous 2013.
In the latest edition of the "Around The League Podcast," the guys make the case that multiple teams have closed the gap on the Seahawks and 49ers in the NFC.

Many homeowners who regularly have guests stay at their place or enjoy entertaining choose to transform a bathroom into a guest bathroom for convenience. This allows them to keep a master bathroom with accessories and fixtures that especially appeal to their personal taste, while offering a similar space that visitors can use while passing through.
However, there is a certain amount of planning that needs to go into creating a guest bathroom, making it a project that merits the input of an expert. As an interior design professional, it's important to understand how the bathroom will be used and who will be utilizing it on a regular basis. For example, the guest bathroom may be tucked away near the guest bedroom specifically for people who are spending the night. On the other hand, it might be in the middle of the home where all visitors have easy access to it.
HGTV reports that the first thing designers should address when renovating a bathroom is the amount of lighting that flows into the room. If the existing fixtures in the space are providing little illumination the room may appear smaller than it really is. A lack of light can also take away from the decor of any living space.
When thinking about adding new lighting fixtures to the bathroom, interior designers might also want to add a mirror to the space. This can help reflect more light and make the room feel larger.
If the guest bathroom will only be used for overnight guests, designers might want to give the room a luxurious hotel feeling with heated towel racks and small items that can be used during the visit, such as a bottle of shampoo or lotion. Warm towels can provide additional convenience and make guests feel more comfortable.
Homeowners who want to go the extra mile might also be interested in radiant floor heating to keep the solid floor in their bathroom comfortable and warm to the touch.
Although it may seem like an easy project, an ample amount of planning needs to go into renovating a bathroom in order to make it satisfactory to guests and homeowners alike. Finishing touches such as elegant lighting fixtures and heated towel racks can go a long way when it comes to making a space truly perfect.

In India's multifarious regional cuisines, each ingredient chosen plays an important and intricate role in creating the complexity of any given dish.
Take dal, for instance. There are thousands and more ways to make a dal, and the diversity of flavor in each dal recipe begins, at the most basic level, with the choice of lentils used.
Most Indian cooks have a half a dozen or so lentils in their pantry, give or take a couple, each with a distinct flavor. But the ones you'll find featured most commonly in dal recipes are chana dal, tuvar dal, masoor dal, udad dal and moong dal.
Each traditional dal recipe is associated with a specific lentil. For instance, dal makhani is made with udad dal while a Maharashtrian varan is made with yellow split peas or tuvar dal. Some South Indian kootus and masials use moong dal while some Bengali dals use chana dal as a base.
You could, of course, substitute other lentils in these recipes, and the results could be perfectly edible, but they wouldn't be dal makhani or varan. Get it?
Each dal recipe, no matter what it's called, usually starts with boiling the lentils to tenderness (I do this in a pressure cooker and sometimes in a microwave), and ends with a tadka, which is a process of heating oil and adding a few spices to it, like mustard or cumin seeds or garlic or curry leaves. The tempered oil is then added to the dal to give it a crowning dash of flavor.
I usually use tuvar dal, masoor dal or moong dal to make most of my dals. But the recipe I am about to share today is made with udad dal, a tiny white lentil with a black skin.
Udad dal has a mildly bitter flavor and a slightly slippery-sticky texture which makes it great as a binding agent in dishes like idlis, steamed rice cakes, and dosas, lentil and rice crepes that are popular in South Indian cuisine and restaurants around the world.
In this dish, the udad is combined with a number of spices, and their fire is toned down at the tail end with the addition of a dollop or two of vegan butter that also adds a smooth creaminess.
Spicy Urad Dal
- 1 cup urad dal (black lentil dal)
- 3 tomatoes (pureed. I used fresh tomatoes because they're abundantly available in the market right now, but you can use 1 1/2 cup of canned tomatoes)
- 10 cloves garlic (minced or grated)
- 1 inch ginger root (grated)
- 1 tsp garam masala
- 1 tsp cayenne pepper
- 1/2 tsp turmeric
- 2 tbsp vegan butter
- 1 tbsp vegetable oil
- Cook or pressure-cook the dal along with the ginger, red chilli powder, turmeric and some salt until tender and mushy.
- Heat the oil in a skillet or saucepan.
- Add the garlic and stir quickly for about a minute. Add the tomatoes and cook until they express the oil.
- Add the cooked urad dal and garam masala powder and stir together. Check for salt and add more if needed.
- If the dal is too thick, add some water.
- Simmer for about 15 minutes on medium-low heat.
- At the very end, add the 2 tbsp of vegan butter. Stir in. Turn off heat.
- Garnish with chopped coriander leaves.
- Serve hot with rice or rotis.

Simplify money and take control of your life choices
You spend your entire life working for the retirement of your dreams. Just like almost everything else in life, it won't be handed to you, at least, not the money for it.
Unlike the days when employers, along with government programs, guaranteed our parents' retirements, the only way to retire comfortably today is to have something invested that will produce the income we need.
But… before investing, it's paramount to get out of debt because your debt is probably charging you more than your investments can earn. Before getting out of debt, we need to save money in order to pay it off, and the only way we can save money is to track our spending through a budget. Yes, that's right: a budget.
The problem with most budgeting methods is that they only look in the past and tell you what you've spent. At that point the toothpaste is out of the tube. Standard budgets present the user with an overwhelming amount of disparate numbers and the user has absolutely no clue where they stand or what the numbers mean. The result is uncertainty, which leads wrong action, or even worse, inaction.
Budgets don't need to be rocket science or require the credentials of a CPA. They should be simple and easy to understand. They need to show the user exactly what their financial snap shot looks like in a single glance.
Liquid succeeds on all counts - the first budgeting method for today's fast-paced world that gives you instant certainty of where you stand with a single number. Based on a proven, patented system, it's the only method that successfully integrates and optimizes the fundamental relationship between cash, income, credit card debt, and expenses by distilling all numbers into a single number. That number shows you exactly where you'll be at the end of the month.

Creamer, Park long for more rough at Kraft Nabisco Championship
RANCHO MIRAGE, Calif. — Defending champion Inbee Park and Singapore winner Paula Creamer were disappointed to see the short rough at the Kraft Nabisco Championship.
"It's a shame it's not 5 inches," Creamer said. "Definitely, you can hit a 5-iron out of the rough if you do hit it in there. The greens, I'm sure, will get faster as the weekend comes around. They're so green. I've never seen this golf course so green and lush."
The rough is only 2-3 inches, taking away a big advantage for straight hitters.
"This golf course, I think, definitely needs more rough," Park said. "It's a major. We're used to seeing narrow fairways on this golf course. I still feel there is a rough still, but it's not as long. Even if you're in the rough, you can go at the green. Last few years you couldn't go at the green. You just had to punch it out.
"Obviously, how I've been striking the ball, I really want it to be longer. . . . It opens up a little bit more to the field. A lot more players can win now."
In Singapore, Creamer made a breaking, downhill 75-foot eagle putt on the second extra hole to beat Azahara Munoz in the HSBC Women's Champions.
"I get to show my kids that one day," Creamer said. "When they say, `I'm not cool,' I can say, `I did this, though.' "
The victory was her 10th on the tour and first since the 2010 U.S. Women's Open.
Stuck in second
Third-ranked Stacy Lewis has five runner-up finishes since winning the Women's British Open in August.
"I definitely would have liked some more wins, especially in the last six months or so, but I feel like I'm moving in the right direction," said Lewis, the 2011 Kraft Nabisco winner for the first of her eight LPGA Tour titles.
The Texan has finished in the top 10 in 15 of the past 16 tournaments she has completed. After her top-10 streak ended at 13 with a tie for 40th in Singapore, she tied for second two weeks ago in Phoenix and tied for sixth last week in Carlsbad.
"Last week, I didn't feel like I played my best golf, but I still had a chance going into Sunday," Lewis said. "That's what I'm really proud of."
She has been thinking about the Kraft Nabisco for months.
"Probably in December, as soon as the year is over," Lewis said. "I work all offseason to get ready for the majors and to be peaking at the right time, to get ready for this week."
Annika major award
The major champion who earns the most points in the five major championships will receive the Rolex Annika Major Award.
Annika Sorenstam won 10 major titles during her Hall of Fame career.
"Who better than Annika Sorenstam to represent the best in performances, at the biggest events," LPGA Tour commissioner Mike Whan said in announcing the award.
Points will be awarded to the top 10 at the five tournaments, with a victory worth 60 points, second 24, third 18, down to two for 10th.
Sorenstam was asked if she was responsible for requiring a player to win one the events to be eligible for the award.
"I had a little bit to do with that," Sorenstam said.
The winner will get $100,000 and a watch.
Amateur lineup
Nelly Korda, Bahamas winner Jessica Korda's 15-year-old sister, is one of nine amateurs in the field.
The younger Korda tied for 67th last summer in the U.S. Women's Open. Her father, former tennis star Petr Korda, is working as her caddie.
Korda is paired with Charley Hull, the 18-year-old English player who played in the Solheim Cup last year and won her first pro title last month in Morocco.
Korda is joined in the field by four other junior players — 15-year-old Angel Yin, 16-year-old Brooke Henderson, and 17-year-old Australians Minjee Lee and Su Hyun Oh.
Lee, ranked 110th in the world, will be part of Australia's four-player team in the International Crown in July at Caves Valley in Maryland.
Alabama's Emma Talley, the 2013 U.S. Women's Amateur champion, also is playing along with Southern California's Annie Park — the NCAA champion — and UCLA's Alison Lee and Clemson's Ashlan Ramsey. Stanford's Mariah Stackhouse turned down a spot because of a conflict with a college tournament.
Top pairings
Defending champion Inbee Park will play alongside 2012 winner Sun Young Yoo the first two rounds.
They will open Thursday morning on the 10th tee, followed by the groups of Lydia Ko-Ai Miyazato, Stacy Lewis-Anna Nordqvist, Cristie Kerr-So Yeon Ryu, Jessica Korda-Brittany Lincicome, and Na Yeon Choi-Yani Tseng.
Karrie Webb is paired with Lizette Salas in an afternoon group that will start on No. 1. Other top afternoon pairings include Michelle Wie-Angela Stanford, Lexi Thompson-Azahara Munoiz, and Paula Creamer-Sandra Gal.

Preparing to Put an Offer In on a Home in Australia
You may have just made the big decision to go out hunting for an Australian home to call your own, or you may have already seen the home of your dreams. Before you make the big step of putting in an offer, you can do a few things to ensure you buy the right property for the right price:
Add up your expenses and subtract them from your take-home income to see how much you can afford to pay monthly on a mortgage.
Ask your lender how much you can borrow to buy a property.
Be clear about what you must have in a property, what you'd like to have if possible, and what you could live without — especially if you're buying with someone else.
Have a hard-headed friend come with you to look at a property that you're seriously in love with and research similar properties nearby to gauge what's a fair price to offer.
Drive by the property at peak traffic times, at night and on weekends to get a feel for the neighbourhood at different times of the day and the week.
Attend at least two open-for-inspections at different times of the day to see how the light moves through the property, and how it feels at different times of the day.
Talk to a neighbour or two to get a sense of the local community and, perhaps, some information on why the owners are selling.
Test out the drive from the property into work and back, or the time it takes on public transport.
Get a building inspection done on the property to discover any major structural problems that could cost you lots of money down the track.
Set a top price you're prepared to pay — and stick to it.
Find yourself a good solicitor or conveyancer to look over the contract of sale.

I've been sympathetic toward her since her imprisonment. But I have to remind myself that she wasn't a very nice person prior to all of this. I wonder if I'm viewing her as an underdog of the moment. Maybe this offers an insight into why we may sometimes be lenient toward transgressors no matter how egregious their offenses. We see them in their impoverishment and pity them. But we don't see or recall the act that led them to the consequence that now confines them.
In Celeste's case, there is a power struggle with another antagonist, Pierre. He probably desires her but also wishes to control and "impress" her with "his power." If he can dispatch the Mad King to an early grave, he would most certainly achieve his goal. But, I think, that if Celeste regains her bearings, she'll seek to outwit, defeat and punish Pierre for his transient and transitory governance over her.
Should this occur and Celeste finds her revenge, will she then shed her "underdog" status, the one I see her holding at present?
I think this could be a very interesting storyline. I recall that Celeste told the Sargeant that she had "a lot of connections everywhere." These may now serve her in good stead, I presume ...
But my initial question was: "Is Celeste really evil?" I'll probably ask this as long as I read the strip unless there's something definitive and glaring and screaming in my face that shouts: "Yes, she is, she is, she is!!"
So that's my drama and my hope is that the answer is no.

If you like seeing guys shred on boogie-boards, this video is not for you. If, on the other hand, you like seeing guys in wigs get absolutely pounded by some raw ocean energy, click play. Tee hee.
Think of it as an experiment in hydrodynamics. Will, for instance, an inflatable dolphin have a greater or lesser drag coefficient than, say, a foam surfboard that's been broken in half? How would we know the answers to such mysteries without scientific testing like this? Really, though, it's just kinda fun watching these guys (who are are all actually excellent surfers) get completely annihilated by some viscous shorebreak. Knocks the wind out of me just looking.

There is no time like the present, so don't let another day pass without having tasted this cherry pie! It's my Marilyn Monroe…my classic. Enjoy!
Pate Brissee (Short Crust)
3/4 cup plus 2 tablespoons tapioca flour
3/4 cup cornstarch
1/4 cup +2 tablespoons glutinous rice flour
¼ cup sorghum flour
1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
1 1/2 teaspoons guar gum
1 cup (2 sticks) cold unsalted cultured butter, diced
3 eggs beaten
2 cups sugar
1/4 cup cornstarch
1/3 cup water
2 pounds fresh Bing cherries, pitted
1 ¼ teaspoons pure almond extract
¼ teaspoon freshly grated nutmeg
Whole milk for brushing
Sanding sugar for sprinkling
Vanilla ice cream or sweetened whipped cream for serving
For the dough: In a stand mixer with the paddle attachment, add all the dry ingredients and mix to combine. Add the butter and mix on the lowest speed until the mixture looks like course bread crumbs. Add the eggs and mix on high until the dough turns in on itself and forms a ball. Turn the dough onto a counter that has been dusted with tapioca flour and knead for three turns. Divide in two and smooth each section into round disks. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 2 hours or for up to 2 days.
Remove both rounds from the fridge 15 minutes before you begin. Dust the work surface again with tapioca flour and roll out one piece of the dough to a 14-inch round. Place a 4 1/2-inch pie pan upside down on the dough. Using a very sharp knife, cut a round 1 inch larger than the pan. Repeat to make a total of 8 rounds, re-rolling the excess dough as needed.
Gently remove a pastry round and fit it into a pie pan. Repeat to line all 8 pans.
Repeat to roll out the second piece of dough and cut out 8 more rounds, the size and shape of which will be dictated by the size and shape of your pie pans. Cut out a decorative vent-hole of your choice. Place the dough rounds on a baking sheet and refrigerate.
For the filling: In a large, heavy saucepan, combine the sugar and cornstarch and whisk until smooth. Add the water and the pitted cherries. Gently stir to coat the cherries, using a very slight pressure so as not to bruise the fruit. Cook, stirring occasionally, over very low heat for 20 minutes, or until the juices begin to thicken. If the mixture thickens too much, add more water by tablespoonfuls.
Stir in the almond extract and nutmeg. Remove from the heat and let cool for at least 10 minutes.
Position an oven rack in the center of the oven and preheat the oven to 425°F. Remove the reserved top crusts from the refrigerator and place beside the prepared pie pans. Fill the pies evenly with the cherry filling.
Brush the edges of the crust with milk. Center a top crust over the pan and join it to the edge of the bottom crust by press the two together. Repeat to top each pie. Brush the top crusts with milk and sprinkle with sanding sugar over the tops for a stellar finish.
Place the pies on a baking sheet and bake for 20 minutes, or until golden brown.
Remove from the oven let cool on wire racks.
Serve warm or at room temperature with ice cream or whipped cream.
Makes 8 individual pies

Venezuela's Capriles: Maduro won't last
MARACAY, Venezuela (AP) — Venezuela's opposition presidential candidate says he'll cut off subsidized oil to Cuba, distance his country from nations that disrespect human rights and shore up the South American country's own troubled economy with the billions it now sends abroad to socialist friends.
Henrique Capriles also told The Associated Press in an interview that he will seek better ties with Washington — always strained under the late President Hugo Chavez — but will demand respect from U.S. leaders, who he says have neglected Latin America.
And the challenger predicted more tough times ahead for oil-rich Venezuela if acting president and ruling party candidate Nicolas Maduro wins the April 14 election. He called Maduro incapable of governing this polarized nation and said its wealth of economic problems ultimate would force Maduro to resign or be forced out.
"Whatever the outcome, I don't see how Nicolas Maduro has the capacity to stay for an extended time in government," Capriles asserted after staging a rock-star-like rally late Thursday in the central coast city of Maracay, traditionally a Chavista stronghold.
"He will have to resign, abandon (the presidency) if he's able to win," Capriles said.
He did not elaborate on what would come, but in the back of many Venezuelans' minds is the unrest and violence that accompanied a brief 2002 coup against Chavez and a prolonged, opposition-led general strike against Chavez in 2003-2004.
Capriles, governor of Venezuela's most populous state, is waging a desperate campaign to unseat Maduro, who was foreign minister and vice president to Chavez and became acting president before Chavez died March 5 of cancer. Capriles lost to Chavez in an October election, but again is cross-crossing the country to rally supporters.
The abbreviated campaign has been marked by personal insults as Capriles insists Maduro is no Chavez, still beloved by millions. Capriles has tried to reassure voters he won't take away their state social programs while promising to address high crime, high inflation, nagging food shortages and recurring power outages.
Maduro's campaign strategy is to incessantly invoke Chavez, who tapped Maduro as his successor. He warns voters their social programs are at risk if Capriles wins, accuses foes of conspiring to destabilize the country and promotes his ties to an armed forces politicized by Chavez.
Exactly one month to the minute after Chavez's death, Maduro, members of Chavez's family and government officials paid tribute to the late president at the Caracas army barracks that hosts Chavez's tomb. Cannon shots were fired and taps played, followed by a remembrance mass.
Capriles previously had announced he had spoken with commanders he didn't identify about possible Cabinet posts. On Thursday, he said he believed most of Venezuela's 200,000 soldiers don't support Defense Minister Diego Molero's public endorsement of Maduro, an endorsement that violated Venezuelan laws that mandate the military's impartiality.
Capriles vowed to stop financing other nations with cheap oil and to redirect Venezuela's oil riches toward solving its own poverty. One of his first acts as president, he said, would be to expel Cuban military advisers from Venezuela's armed forces.
"We are giving to the Castro brothers' government ... nearly $4 billion a year," he said. "Because of that, the Castros love the possibility that this government remains."
The government stresses that in exchange for oil, Cuba has dispatched thousands of doctors and nurses who provide free medical attention in poverty-stricken areas that historically lacked services. Capriles has said previously he'd send the doctors home.
Capriles said he'd quickly chill ties with Iran and Syria that Chavez boosted.
"We have to take a look at the affinity we have toward Iran, beyond our shared interest as oil producers. There is none," he said. "With the Syrian government, there is none."
Venezuela has sent several shipments of diesel fuel to Syria's embattled regime.
"My political orientation is for democracy, not these authoritarian governments where human rights are trampled upon," Capriles declared.
The candidate said he wants better relations with Washington, but on an equal footing. Chavez frequently accused the United States of trying to unseat him, and Maduro has suggested it somehow injected Chavez with cancer.
Washington briefly embraced Chavez's ouster in the 2002 coup. The two countries haven't exchanged ambassadors since 2010. In March, Washington expelled two Venezuelan diplomats after Caracas expelled two U.S. military attaches for allegedly trying to turn Venezuelan soldiers against their government.
"I believe the United States has been erratic in its relationship with Latin America. It's made mistakes," Capriles said.
"I had big expectations of President Obama, that Obama was going to reach out to the South," he said. "The United States doesn't take into account the South's importance, and it must change the way it relates" to Latin America.
"We sell oil to the United States and we buy products from the United States," Capriles continued. "These are the huge contradictions of this (Maduro) government — it talks and it talks, yet it even imports gasoline from the United States."
Capriles blamed Maduro, as interim president, for a devaluation of Venezuela currency that weakened citizens' buying power. He also blamed Maduro, and Chavez before him, for frequent power outages, 23 percent inflation and rampant crime.
Capriles dismissed some polls that suggest Maduro, bolstered by enduring empathy for Chavez and a massive state elections machine, will win handily.
"Of course I can win," he said. "The act of voting is a rational, and emotional, act. I feel that that emotion is on this side. Maduro lacks charisma and leadership, he said.
As for Chavez' popularity rubbing off on his hand-picked successor, Capriles said "I don't believe in hereditary leadership."
Capriles' own charisma was on full display at a boisterous rally in Maracay's central boulevard before the AP interview — a 10-block display of passion among thousands that nearly resulted in disaster.
Whipped up into a near-frenzy by speaker after speaker over a waiting period of three hours, mobs pushed through successive security barriers until, by the time Capriles launched into his stump speech, dozens were crushed against a fence, struggling to breathe, the old and young alike crying and pleading for help.
Several people climbed building railings to escape the crush. Capriles' security detail pulled people from the crush. Crying children were separated from their parents; emergency personnel administered oxygen to a man prone on the ground. Dozens were taken for medical treatment.
When it was over, one of Capriles' aides found a wedding ring on the ground. She shook her head.

Haitian Community Partners, a local organization, will be holding a gubernatorial candidates forum at 7 p.m. on Thursday at the War Memorial Building, 156 West Elm St., Brockton.
BROCKTON – Brockton residents looking to learn more about the candidates in this year's gubernatorial election will have the opportunity to pose questions to the candidates themselves on Thursday.
Haitian Community Partners, a local organization, will be holding a gubernatorial candidates forum at 7 p.m. on Thursday at the War Memorial Building, 156 West Elm St., Brockton.
Democratic candidates Joseph Avellone, Donald Berwick and Juliette Kayyem and United Independent candidate Evan Falchuk will all be participating in the event, which is free and open to the public.
Democratic candidates Martha Coakley and Steven Grossman and Republican candidate Charlie Baker were invited to the event, but did not confirm their attendance.
"The purpose of this forum is to give candidates for governor an opportunity to address policy issues vital to our city's future," said Marline Amedee, the president of Haitian Community Partners, in a statement.
Jean-Claude Sanon, a prominent member of Boston's Haitian community, will moderate the forum. Sanon will begin the forum by asking all of the candidates the same opening question, followed by a round of additional questions.
Members of the audience will then have the opportunity ask the candidates questions.
Issues that will be addressed during the debate include: the environment, transportation, housing and economic growth.
Haitian Community Partners was founded by a group of residents from the Greater-Brockton Area in 2013 to address the widening gap between government and citizens, particularly those of minority background.
There were 5,000 people of Haitian descent in Brockton in 2000, according to the U.S. Census. In 2012, there were more than 12,000 people of West Indian heritage in the city, a number that includes people from all over the Caribbean.

My coworkers and I decided to try out the new creole place in the US Bank building - J Gumbos! It's an unassuming little spot around the corner from the Roly Poly and right near one of the doors - don't ask me which one. If you're at Ingredients - walk past it - past Roly - around the corner and toward the door - then it's on the right.
Everything on the menu looked and sounded great. They have 3 spice levels - mild, medium and hot. None of us dared the hot menu on the first try.
Here's a shot of all of our food:
Jeff said he wished he'd tried the Crawfish Etouffee instead for a bit of a stronger flavor. The shrimp were very tiny. Russ was very happy with his red beans & rice. It was the daily special and I was jealous!
This is my gumbo - a rich & hearty soup thickened with our homemade brown Roux, Chicken, Sausage, and fresh Vegetables. It was in the medium menu and was pretty spicy. The sauce is very brown - and I was watching Top Chef tonight and they said that's how Gumbo should be... It was okay but I definitely think I'd try something else next time.
The rice was great and the bread was nice. They have so many offerings on their menu - there is plenty to try! You can also try a spoonful beforehand to see if you like it. Next time I'm trying the Creole!
Next...save room for dessert!
Seriously click the picture - I wanted some!
I resisted the temptation...well sort of. We went to Tazza Mia and got a peanut butter cup cookie.
Overall - good price, unique flavor, I'd go back!

Student or Learner
I have got a question about the preposition in the sentence below. Is "with" the correct preposition? I think it might lead to misunderstanding.
It was so hot that I could go walking with a T-shirt.
And can we use "in" for shoes / sandals as well?
For example, I was in a hurry so I had to follow them in sandals.
If it's really hot ,you go without the t-shirt.
Not if you're female and avoiding arrest. :)
It was so nice here on Sunday that I went for a walk, and ended up taking off my sweatshirt and walking in just my t-shirt (on top, of course - I was also fully clothed and shod from the waist down). For November, to just be in short-sleeves was amazing.
Illogically, we also use "in bare feet" in the US. "I can't believe you ran out there in just your bare feet." Or "You can't come in here in your bare feet. Put some shoes on."
I'm not a teacher, but I write for a living. Please don't ask me about 2nd conditionals, but I'm a safe bet for what reads well in (American) English.
Do you use barefoot in AmE? We say in bare feet, but we could also use barefoot.
You can't come in here ...
barefoot; in bare feet; with nothing on your feet; with no shoes on.
Remember - if you don't use correct capitalisation, punctuation and spacing, anything you write will be incorrect.
Poor English learners.
Why not "On your bare feet"? Why not "You are barefeet"? After all, we don't walk IN our feet, we walk ON them. And both our feet are bare, not just one.
But that's the way it is!

Our Kickstarter campaign is over, but you can still get an OUYA. Head over to www.ouya.tv for more info and to place an order.
We just added game streaming through OnLive! Final Fantasy will be on OUYA...and we have an exclusive game! And VEVO has agreed to put their music videos on OUYA, XBMC adds a streaming media app, with TuneIn and iHeartRadio adding music!
We're honored by all of you who are backing us -- THANK YOU. We are focused on delivering for you, first come first served. We can only promise OUYA by March to our Kickstarter backers.
Engadget! PC World! Kotaku! The Guardian! Joystiq! Forbes! GameSpot! BusinessWeek! The Verge! Wired! IGN! The New York Times! Time!
We love console games.
There's something about a big HD TV and digital surround sound that fills up a living room. Shooters, platformers, sports games, arcade classics and experimental indie games just feel bigger on a TV screen. It's how most of us grew up gaming.
But maybe people are missing out.
We get it – smartphones and tablets are getting all the new titles – they're "what's hot." The console market is pushing developers away. We've seen a brain drain: some of the best, most creative gamemakers are focused on mobile and social games because those platforms are more developer-friendly. And the ones who remain focused on console games can't be as creative as they'd like.
Deep down, you know your best gaming memories happened in the living room.
You busted your ass just to find out the princess was "in another castle." You fought bosses that told you repeatedly how much "you suck." You taped a blanket to half of your screen so your friend couldn't see where you were. You traded the best players onto your team just so you could have the perfect season. And you did it all on the TV.
It's time to upend console gaming.
Let's open this sucker up! It's time we brought back innovation, experimentation, and creativity to the big screen. Let's make the games less expensive to make, and less expensive to buy. With all our technological advancements, shouldn't costs be going down? Gaming could be cheaper!
We're handing the reins over to the developer with only one condition: at least some gameplay has to be free. We borrowed the free-to-play model from games like League of Legends, Team Fortress 2, Triple Town, and many others. Developers can offer a free demo with a full-game upgrade, in-game items or powers, or ask you to subscribe.
OUYA: The revolution will be televised
OUYA is a new game console for the TV, powered by Android.
We've packed this little box full of power. Developers will have access to OUYA's open design so they can produce their games for the living room, taking advantage of everything the TV has to offer.
Best of all, OUYA's world-class controller, console, and interface come in one beautiful, inexpensive package. All the games on it will be free, at least to try.
Great games come from great developers.
Developers can wave farewell to the roadblocks of bringing a console game to market. Anyone can make a game: every OUYA console is a dev kit. No need to purchase a license or an expensive SDK. It's built on Android, so developers already know how it works.
That doesn't mean OUYA is an Android port. You can create the next big title in your bedroom – just like the good old days! Who needs pants!?
OUYA could change AAA game development, too. Forget about licensing fees, retail fees, and publishing fees.
And developers agree:
"This has the potential to be the game developer's console. It's about time!" -- Brian Fargo (founder of inXile)
"Who wouldn't want a beautiful piece of industrial design that sells for $99, plugs straight into your TV, and gives you access to a huge library of games?" – Jordan Mechner (creator of Prince of Persia, Karateka)
"If OUYA delivers on the promise of being the first true open gaming platform that gives indie developers access to the living room gaming market, yes that is a great idea. We will follow the development of OUYA and see how it resonates with gamers. I could see all current Mojang games go on the platform if there's a demand for it." – Mojang (developer of Minecraft)
"I'm excited for OUYA! I am a firm believer that there is always room to challenge the status quo." -- Jenova Chen (thatgamecompany, creator of flOw, Cloud, and Flower)
"The prospect of an affordable, open console -- that's an idea I find really exciting." -- Adam Saltsman (Semi Secret, creator of Canabalt)
"Our games will work so well on a TV, we just need an easy way to get them there. OUYA could be it." -- Marek Rabas (Madfinger Games)
"An open game console that gives independent game developers the flexibility to experiment with their games and business models on the TV, is something that's long overdue." – David Edery (Spry Fox, creator of Triple Town)
Design matters.
We believe a great console requires a great user experience. We are working with the award-winning designer, Yves Behar, and his firm fuseproject (designer of the Jambox).
We are designing the controller to be a love letter to console gaming. It will have everything you've learned to love: fast buttons, triggers, laser-precise analog sticks, a D-Pad – and it will have a touchpad for any games making the trek from mobile or tablet to the TV. It'll be just the right weight. We are working with select developers to play-test the controller through development. We call it 'the Stradivarius of controllers,' and we hope developers will be inspired to take gameplay to a new level with it.
Hackers welcome.
Have at it: It's easy to root (and rooting won't void your warranty). Everything opens with standard screws. Hardware hackers can create their own peripherals, and connect via USB or Bluetooth. You want our hardware design? Let us know. We might just give it to you. Surprise us!
- Tegra3 quad-core processor
- 8GB of internal flash storage
- HDMI connection to the TV, with support for up to 1080p HD
- WiFi 802.11 b/g/n
- Bluetooth LE 4.0
- USB 2.0 (one)
- Wireless controller with standard controls (two analog sticks, d-pad, eight action buttons, a system button), a touchpad
- Android 4.0
- ETHERNET! (Announced by Muffi 7/18)
It's entertainment beyond gaming.
Because OUYA is based on Android, any app developer could publish their Android app to OUYA. The possibilities are limitless, and conversations with potential partners are already underway. Here's our first: do you like watching StarCraft, or League of Legends? Watch Twitch.TV on your OUYA.
We've come a long way already. The user interface and industrial designs are far along. Our prototype is up and running. What we have left to do is simple, but it's expensive. (We're looking at you Mark Cuban! Woz! Help us out.)
All we need is you.
With your help, we need to:
- Convert our prototype to production-ready models and get all the regulatory approvals (yeah, we need these to sell them)
- Deliver developer kits (for early developers so we can have games on day one, though every console will include an SDK once we launch)
- Place our first production orders (we are working with a manufacturing firm with lots of game hardware experience, but we need to know how many to make!)
- Ideally, fund some initial game development (i.e., 1st-party games)
And if you're international, we want your help too…gaming is global, and we will get you OUYA. We still have a lot to figure out in regards to rights and countries, but it can be done. Look what we've accomplished already!
Show the world, through your numbers, that you're out there.
Show them you're ready to level the playing field. Enlist others. The more we raise, the more we can do.

INDIANAPOLIS -- Dallas Cowboys nose tackle Jay Ratliff was arrested for DUI this offseason. He is coming off a very poor season and hasn't been able to stay healthy. He's also due $5 million.
Add it all up, and you would think the Cowboys would consider cutting Ratliff as they change defensive systems. It's not going to happen.
Coach Jason Garrett said he "absolutely" expects Ratliff to be on the roster this year in response to a question from Around The League. Garrett noted that Ratliff is a scary player when healthy and should fit new offensive coordinator Monte Kiffin's 4-3 defense well. (Garrett didn't mention that cutting Ratliff wouldn't actually save that much money against the cap.)
Some other highlights from Garrett's media sessions and one-one-on with Around The League:
1. Garrett was optimistic the team could restructure Tony Romo's contract this offseason. Asked about drafting a developmental quarterback, Garrett made it clear that he's happy with the two veteran quarterbacks he has: Romo and Kyle Orton. Translation: Cowboys fans shouldn't get their hopes up about a young player to groom.
"We believe very strongly in Tony Romo as our quarterback," Garrett said.
2. The Cowboys believe their defensive talent fits the 4-3 defense just fine. Garrett said they won't have to solely focus on adding to the defense because guys like DeMarcus Ware, Sean Lee, Bruce Carter and Ratliff already fit well into the 4-3 attack. Lee will get the "first crack" at playing middle linebacker.

I have used this product for a couple of years and swear by it for maintaining hydration and salt levels. All 7 of us used it on a LeJoG 5 day event last summer and not one cramp. Great for hangovers too (allegedly!)
Whether or not you believe the claims made for them, these Zym Electrolyte tablets are certainly convenient. You get 10 of them in a neat little green tube and all you have to do is pop one or two in a bottle of water and wait for the fizzing to stop.
It certainly beats carrying wraps of white powder around with you as anyone who has crossed a customs border, on tour or on their way to a sportive perhaps, and had to explain themselves to a stern faced man with a rubber glove and a quizzical expression will attest. Whether the customs officers think the tablets are worth the £5.99 you've paid for them is another matter.
These tablets contain various salts (sodium, magnesium, calcium and potassium) and claim to "combat fatigue, muscle cramps and lactic acid build-up. This provides athletes with fresh legs, natural energy and higher endurance." I'm no sports scientist and it's hard to test the science without recourse to a fully kitted sports lab but these salts are all present in sweat and will be excreted by the body during exercise, so it seems logical to replenish them. Whether you need these tablets to do that is perhaps a moot point. They don't contain any carbs though, these are designed purely to keep you hydrated, not fuelled.
I tried these during a couple of fairly hilly rides across Devon and would be hard pushed to know if they made any difference or not. I felt less tired and achy after the ride than I might have expected, but again, I couldn't say for sure that this was due to the drink. Having said that, they have a pleasant 'clean' taste and texture, which makes it easier to drink more and that can only be a good thing. They are flavoured with nothing nastier than citric acid and sucrose, so they don't have the chemically aftertaste that some sports drinks have. Dosage is a matter of personal preference. I used two in a 500ml bottle and they dissolved nicely, with no powdery remnants to surprise me at the bottom of the bottle.
Very convenient and probably better on long or hard rides than just squash or water. No carbs though, so if you normally use sports drinks to supplement your calorie intake you'll need to use something else besides. Not cheap though.

Warsaw (Poland): Holocaust survivors, politicians, religious leaders and others are marking International Holocaust Remembrance Day with solemn prayers and the now oft-repeated warnings to never let such horrors happen again.
Events today took place at sites including Auschwitz-Birkenau, the former death camp where Hitler`s Germany killed at least 1.1 million people, mostly Jews, in southern Poland. Today is the 68th anniversary of the liberation of the camp by Soviet troops in 1945.
In Warsaw, prayers were also held at a monument to the fighters of the Warsaw Ghetto Uprising of 1943.
And in Rome, Pope Benedict XVI warned that "the memory of this immense tragedy, which above all struck so harshly the Jewish people, must represent for everyone a constant warning so that the horrors of the past are not repeated."
