How To Clean Stainless Steel Pots and Pans
Cleaning Lessons from The Kitchn
They look so bright and shiny when you first buy them, but over time stainless steel cookware can acquire brown spots and discolored areas that won't go away with routine dish washing. This type of staining is fairly common for stainless steel, but it's a little unsightly, particularly if left untreated.
Thankfully, no matter how stained your pot is, there is a super cheap and easy way to get it looking new again. It will require a fair amount of elbow grease, but the payoff is worth it.
The secret to cleaning stainless steel cookware? Bar Keepers Friend. You can pick up this non-abrasive, non-bleach cleaner for around $2 at most hardware stores. Combined with a little water and a good scrubbing pad, it does an amazing job at cleaning up stainless steel pots and pans!
How to Clean Stainless Steel Pots and Pans
What You Need
Bar Keepers Friend
Scrubbing pad (a Dobie pad or non-abrasive sponge is ideal to minimize scratches)
Rubber gloves (optional, but recommended)
- Pour a very small amount of water into the pot, then add a few generous shakes of Bar Keepers Friend.
- Mix the water and powder together. (My mixture was more watery, but you can use less water for more of a paste texture, too.)
- Using a sponge, spread the mixture up the sides and all around the pot.
- Now apply some vigorous elbow grease and scrub away at the stains! This could take you anywhere from 5 - 10 minutes. Add more Bar Keepers Friend to your sponge for determined stains.
- Repeat for the outside of the pot.
- Rinse and dry!
Note: For those of you wondering where the writing went on the bottom of the pot, I can promise you that this is the same pot. The All-Clad label that's so clearly visible on the bottom is still there, although it's very light now, probably due in part to the Bar Keepers Friend and the rough scrubbing pad I used in this particular case. It doesn't really bother me that the label isn't that visible anymore, but word to the wise: definitely opt for a Dobie pad or a non-abrasive scrubbing pad if you want to maintain the label on the bottom and minimize scratching.

Am I looking at the pictures wrongly or has all the writing on the bottom of the pan been scrubbed off too?
Really. Is that the same pan?
Yes, it IS the same pan! I've put a note into the post to clarify. The label is still there, although it's very light now.
I have found it's great for copper bottom pans as well - brings back the brightness of the copper and removes all the oxidation, which will reoccur of course when you cook again, but using BKF at every cleaning will keep them looking great! I have used it on my older aluminium cookie sheets as well. It cleans up the cooked-on oil and residue beautifully! One note of caution - BKF is harsh and will take the first thin layer of skin off your hands if you don't use gloves. I usually grab a cheap plastic food-prep glove for the hand I scrub with to avoid that.
i've been reading on another blog about using bon ami as opposed to BKF... apparently, bon ami has smaller and less abrasive compounds, so it is easier on the pan materials. any experience with this?
BKF is wonderful, I prefer the dry one over their liquid version. I use it everyday but for really bad bad cooked on, burned on stuff try Dawn Power Dissolver. Its sometimes difficult to find.
You spray it on, let it sit and its almost like oven cleaner. It sticks on and breaks down the gunk without much scrubbing.
and no I don't own the company.
This honestly looks more like a lot of scrubbing that apparently wasn't too friendly to the material at all (after all, how else woulld that tag on the bottom basically disapear?!).
Personally I'll stick to soda. At least for the inside of pots and pans it's the best way to clean: Put some in (depending on the size a tea- or tablespoon), add a good amount of water and put it on the burner. Let it simmer for a couple of minutes. Remove the pan, let the liquid cool untill you can comfortably touch it. Scrub a tiny bit, et voilà, the inside of your pan is sparkling. Use the liquit to clean the rest of the pan. This might take a bit more scrubbing, but then, who the heck needs sparkling clean pan bottoms?
I love BKF. It's great for kitchen and bathroom fixtures, too. For my pans I like to use BKF Cookware cleanser and polish instead of the regular BKF. I think it's not as harsh but does a good job.
I use both Bon Ami and BKF on my stainless steel and on my glass top stove. I prefer BKF for both--it works faster and I use less.
I do use baking soda to loosen stuck on food in my roasting pans like German Girl. I sometimes let it soak over night--no heating involved and clean them in the morning.
Bon Ami has been my cleanser of choice for many, many years, but it is no match for BKF when it comes to badly stained stainless steel...as I recently discovered when I let a small pot of water boil out. Neither Bon Ami nor baking soda and salt did any good. The almost universally recommended solution I found was BKF plus a fair amount of sweat equity in the scrubbing department. And by gum, it worked! It seems to be more a polishing away of the problem than an abradant, and I also found it very effective in removing ancient baked on I-don't-know-what from the outsides of some Farberwear I recently acquired that was otherwise in great condition. No major issues with scratching so am guessing the marks on the pot shown here are from the scrubber used rather than the BKF; in addition, the label on the bottom looks to have been stamped on the surface, not engraved, so the scrubbing and polishing could well have lightened it).
Funny timing as just this weekend I finally tackled my old, 'stained' bathtub with BKF (which I had never used before) since Comet/Ajax didn't work; lemon & baking soda didn't work, etc. Lots of BKF, elbow grease, and a sturdy scrub brush got that nasty tub WHITE.
I just wish I had known beforehand that it's best to wear gloves for such a big job as now my hands are really dry.
Still, worth it. I keep twitching aside the shower curtain just to gaze in wonder at my pristine tub.
BKF is now my BFF.
I use BKF regularly and I've never had to use that amount of elbow grease. I think if you do it more often it's not such an endeavor.
My pots have seen better days...thanks for posting this!
Whenever I want to super clean the insides of my SS pots I boil something acidic, think hibiscus flower or chiles for salsa. They come out spotless without the elbow grease. Guess vinegar and water would work. The bottom never gets like the one in the picture because I don't have a dishwasher and always scrub it before it gets too greasy.
I seem to recall that BKF was acidic and used that property to help clean stuff off as opposed to just being an abrasive like Bon Ami is, hence why it works better for many. In addition to the steel pans, I've also used it to remove stains from the cheapo countertops in my house.
I have used this product on my stainless steel pans for years, but one thing I never use is the harsh scrub pad that's pictured. I was told by multiple pros that the only scrub pad to use on stainless steel is the Dobie pad, and I'm wondering if the harsh scrub pad was the reason the words disappeared from the bottom of that pot. You can see the scratch marks that pad left behind in the second to the last photo. Stainless steel pots will also turn blue inside if used under too high flame, and most cook without too much staining or spotting if you be sure to properly heat them up prior to putting fat and food in them. I've had my pans for a long time and the worst I've ever cleaned from them is the bluish tinge.
I have had the same results with very little elbow grease using a thin paste of baking soda and water. I just scrub with my fingers, a washcloth, or a soft sponge. This is also the best way to get anything caked onto a glass top stove cleaned, which is the stove we are currently stuck with.
Use BKF every time you wash your SS pans and you won't have to do such a major scrub. If something is stuck on soak it first and use a brush to remove debris. My pans look fantastic every time. So happy!
Uh, Barkeeper's Friend IS quite abrasive. If you use it on aluminum, you'll scratch it right up.
It does do wonders on stainless steel pots. I recently burned a thick layer of unattended chocolate pudding onto the bottom of my favorite saucepan. I soaked it with hot water overnight, then drained it and added a few tablespoons of baking soda, water, and some white vinegar, and brought it to a boil, then simmered for an hour or so, scraping the bottom occasionally with a metal spoon. That lifted almost all of the solid black and Barkeeper's Friend quickly took care of the remaining bits and spots.
I've heard coca cola is really good for cleaning pans, leave it in the burnt pan over night, wake up in the morning and the burnt food just washes off, anyone else had a good experience with this? or can comment?
does no one use Oxiclean? I have had good success soaking a pan with burnt on goo with oxiclean overnight....Everything rinsed right out in the morning.

UPDATE: Brandon Lowe lost his battle to cancer on Friday morning. Funeral Arrangements are pending.
PREVIOUS STORY: It's been 17 months since one North Georgia boy was diagnosed with cancer and now after a long battle, doctors aren't sure what else they can do.However, Lafayette, Georgia community members aren't giving up just yet.Hundreds of people came out to donate to one family, in hopes of a miracle."He's so sweet. He's probably the nicest guy you'll meet," said Tara Clark."He's everyone's friend, he gets along with everybody," said Tyler Hatton.Brandon Lowe is 19 years old and a graduate of Lafayette High School. Nearly a year and a half ago, he was diagnosed with cancer."It sunk in after a while, when he stopped coming to school and then when he did come back he didn't look so well, and we were like oh my gosh this is really happening," said Clark.While Brandon's family pulled together during the emotional journey, the community pulled even closer."It touches the whole town and our hearts go out to Lisa and Skip and we just want to help them," Leeann Burnette.Cars flooded the parking lot of Sonic Thursday night, wrapping around the building and down the street.All for one boy, many of them don't even know."We were backed up at 5 minutes after 5, it was just crazy," said Burnette."The first lady I talked to said she didn't even really know him, she just wanted to come out and support him. So people that just know his story are here to help him," said Clark.Brandon was placed on a ventilator 14 days ago, after having problems breathing.Doctors say there isn't anything else that they can do. But those who know him, tell Channel 3, that hasn't kept them from praying."He's such a fighter. He's determined to beat this, even though he's in a hospital on a ventilator, he's expecting his miracle and so are we," said Burnette."He's like a brother to me. I've never gave up on him yet-- and I won't," said Hatton. "I think miracles will happen," said Clark.20 percent of every check at Sonic went to the Lowe family.Leeann Burnette tells me they raise over $2,300.

For those of you despairing about the nasty tenor of elections today, the ugly partisanship of politics, the polarity of the press: Be happy you weren't around in the 19th century.
Fox News vs. MSNBC? That was nothing. The early 1800s were known as the "Dark Ages of Partisan Journalism," says Gil Troy, a history professor at McGill University. Too much talk about Cherokees? Big deal. The fight between Thomas Jefferson and John Adams, in 1800, got so ugly that Abigail Adams despaired that the shenanigans could have "ruined and corrupted the minds and morals of the best people in the world."

UNDATED (WSAU) - Some things shouldn't be passed down from one child to the next. Your car seat is probably one of them.
EMS Specialist Kathy Bruckbauer from Portage County says the older car seats tend to crack and break, making them unsafe for your children. She suggests bringing them in and not risking your kid's safety. "Car seat recycling day is April 20th at the Village of Plover Fire Department, so if you have any old car seats, bring them over. We'll take them down and recycle them for you."
If the car seat is over six years old, has been recalled by the manufacturer, has ever been in a crash, or has missing or broken parts, you should just recycle it and not use it.
Many communities are collecting old car seats today. You can also take them to the Judging Pavilion at Marathon Park in Wausau or the Marshfield Fire Departments between 9:00 a.m. and noon.

In a society where parenting is expected, some of us do not have children because our partners are unable or unwilling to make babies. That's what this blog and my book, Childless by Marriage, are about. The book is available now in paperback and as a Kindle e-book. Here on this blog, let's talk about what it's really like.

Should you stay with the guy who doesn't want kids?
Anonymous said...
My boyfriend and I have been dating for going on five years and he has said repeatedly that he does not want anymore kids. He has two kids from previous relationships and basically refuses to even talk about what would happen if we have an accidental pregnancy. I do understand where he is coming from, he lost his daughter in a horrendous and long custody battle after his divorce, and although we see his son on a regular basis, he simply doesn't want anymore children. I very much want to be a mom at some point, and though I'm only 25 (he is 33) I know I want a child of my own too. I love his kids but it's heartbreaking and makes me incredibly envious and even a smidge resentful. I have nightmares about being pregnant and him leaving me because of it. I'm terrified of the possibility of becoming pregnant because I love him more than anything and don't want to lose him, but what if I do get pregnant even while on birth control? I want to know he won't leave me in that circumstance, but he won't give me any reassurance on the issue. Any advice would be appreciated!
Oh boy. As I noted in my reply, my gut instinct is to tell her to get another boyfriend. If he would leave her if she got pregnant even by accident, come on, that's not right. At least that's my opinion.
I know what it's like to be in a relationship that is not good in some ways but still feel like I would absolutely die if he left me. More than once. And you know what? Eventually these men dumped me. Maybe I was too clingy. Maybe I scared them with my dreams of marriage and children and a nice house in the suburbs. Maybe they were just jerks. I'm no expert on relationships, but it does seem to me that if you can't discuss an issue as important as whether or not to have children, the relationship won't last. Also, if this guy is so anti-children, why doesn't he get a vasectomy so there won't be any accidents?
I would love to hear other opinions on this situation. If you read the other comments on that post, you'll see that this particular anonymous writer is not the only one struggling with this. It all comes back to the same question: Do you love this person so much that you're willing to give up having children for him or her?
Please comment.

In this situation I'd say to start looking for a new man who can fulfill your dream of being a wife and mother. Don't sell your life short to a man who doesn't care enough about your wants and desires to help fulfill them and be happy and proud to do so. Would you be "happy and proud" to give up the dream of being a mom just so he can be happy? Does he (and his kids) give you enough joy in life that you desire nothing else than to be with him/them? It's a hard choice I know, but at age 25 you've got time to find a new relationship that can be better matched to you.
Another angle is to ask why he doesn't want kids, for most men it's about money/child support. So if it's just about the money, work on 'your' finances, find a better job, etc. and then afford the baby with or without him.

I am in my mid forties and been married for 14 years. I'm not happy with having no children but it is now not possible for me to have them with my husband or anybody else. I love my husband and I married him before we knew there was a problem. So I'm sticking with it. If I was 25 though and it wasn't a bio problem I think I would see it more as "we are not suitable life partners". I know it is not easy as I could leave my hubbie to adopt (which he doesn't want to do). I have considered this long and hard and was tempted but couldn't bring myself to do it. At 25 though - there is a lot of life to be unhappy.
- January 22, 2014 at 2:57 PM
Leave him and find someone who shares your desire for children. You are too young to give up on your desire for children just to be with a man that is too selfish to give you a child. Trust me, you will REGRET spending all of your childbearing years with a man who won't give you a child.
I have been with my husband for 14 years. I am 38, and my resentment about not having another child grows stronger by the day.
You are young enough to find someone who shares your desire for children. Don't give this selfish man all of your childbearing years. You will deeply regret it in the end.
- March 9, 2014 at 7:26 AM
I would tell her to find another boyfriend. If he doesn't want kids then let him never have sex with her again. Because any kids would NOT be an "accident".

Will the Pesticides Keep Starbucks Out of Retail Tea?
Mike is a member of The Motley Fool Blog Network -- entries represent the personal opinion of the blogger and are not formally edited.
In mid-November, Starbucks (NASDAQ: SBUX) announced its intention to finalize a $620 million deal to purchase tea retailer Teavana Holdings (NYSE: TEA) by the end of 2012. Starbucks intends to acquire the company in a straight-cash deal that values each share of its stock at $15.50.
Based in Seattle, Starbucks is a wildly successful coffee retailer and distributor. It operates over 18,000 stores worldwide and sells its coffee products in many major supermarkets and department stores across North America. In recent years, Starbucks has diversified with investments in juice products as well as the "K-cup" segment of the coffee market.
Atlanta-based Teavana is a natural target for this drive to diversify. The company manufactures and distributes gourmet teas and operates about 300 retail units in North America. It caters to an upmarket clientele willing to pay a premium for pesticide-free loose-leaf teas and tea-infused beverages. Starbucks's board has signaled a willingness to expand the Teavana brand into international markets friendly to the consumption of high-end teas, including India and the Middle East.
If the deal goes through as expected, Teavana shareholders will receive $15.50 per share. This represents a small premium over the stock's December 5 closing price of $15.41. Shareholders who held the stock prior to the merger announcement stand to gain significantly more: Starbucks's offer represents a 53 percent premium relative to Teavana's November 13 closing price of $10.13. The deal is scheduled to be completed by December 31.
The Teavana acquisition brings to mind another Starbucks venture. During the late 1990s, the then-smaller coffee-maker paid $8.1 million to purchase Tazo Teas in a move that drew widespread skepticism at the time. Today, the Tazo brand is an integral part of the company's identity and contributes as much as $1 billion in top-line revenue. Starbucks offers Tazo teas in virtually every store and outlet that serves its own Starbucks-branded products. However, the Tazo brand largely lacks its own separate retail infrastructure. There is just a single Tazo outlet in existence today.
The Teavana deal represents a more ambitious purchase with an even greater potential payoff. Unlike Tazo, it already has a robust infrastructure of retail outlets across a wide geographical area. Starbucks plans to use these existing stores as well as the Tazo store to market-test new Teavana-branded products. It also plans to continue the brand's aggressive retail expansion in its home market as well as abroad.
Unlike Tazo, Starbucks plans to retain the Teavana name in retail signage and may feature it prominently in its promotional materials. Moving forward, it's unclear whether Starbucks will continue to utilize the Tazo brand apart from Teavana or whether the two will effectively assume a single identity.
The pending merger has been complicated by a high-profile disagreement between Teavana and an investment firm with a large short position in the company's stock. As they involve both the brand image and physical safety of the company's teas, the stakes of this disagreement are high. Glaucus Research recently charged that virtually all of Teavana's teas contain pesticides. This contradicts multiple on-the-record statements from Teavana employees. Glaucus alleges that some of these pesticides are known carcinogens and that the teas that contain them may not be safe for human consumption.
Although Glaucus's allegations caused Teavana's stock price to fall by about 5 percent on the day that they broke, most market watchers apparently believe that the allegations won't affect the deal. However, there could be devastating fallout for Teavana should they prove true. The company has made "pesticide-free tea" the cornerstone of its branding operation and stands to sustain a significant hit to its reputation if it's found to engage in misleading marketing practices.
For its part, Teavana responded to the charges with a statement that outlined its product-testing protocols and denied that its teas were unsafe. In a follow-up letter, Glaucus noted that the company did not explicitly refute the charge that it used pesticides in its teas. Starbucks announced on December 5 that is still plans on purchasing Teavana. However, investors in both Starbucks and Teavana must consider the possibility that the controversy will ultimately scuttle the deal or at least encourage Starbucks to re-tender an offer at a lower price.

It is one of the most serious books I have ever read. It certainly showed how dreadful African Americans were treated during that time, and, although the book was a very well written book, I found that I couldn't enjoy it because there were no uplifting parts. Pretty much all the characters I liked died or ended up miserable. It's a book you have to read sometime in your life, but now that I've read it, I don't plan to read it again.

Weight loss could mean portfolio gains
An expert discusses ways to invest in a new drug before a key panel review.
Written by Douglas Estadt
Adam Warner, our go-to options guy and the author of "Options Volatility Trading" and dailyoptionsreport.com, joins us to discuss alternative ways to invest in VVUS (VVUS) prior to the July 15 panel review date of the company's new weight-loss drug. The stock is currently in the $10 range for common shares, and it stands to rise substantially if the panel review is positive.
- A bullish approach—buying calls on the 10s and selling 15s, could triple your money if the panel's review is positive
- A bearish approach—buying a put spread (buy 10s, sell 5s)
- Options expire July 16th, just one day after the panel review
- FDA's decision on the new weight-loss drug will be made on October 23 and will depend heavily on the conclusions of the panel review
- VVUS has another drug following the weight-loss drug that should be more easily approved by the FDA and favorable for VVUS common shares

Here's a simple rule for Yoda Star Wars costumes. Unless your aged under 10 or a dog do not dress in a Yoda costume for Halloween. It's just impossible to make it look any good in fact it looks lame and almost disturbing. Need proof? See the examples below.
As you can see above Yoda costumes and older people don't mix
Even Martin Scorsese can't save this costume.
No matter how well the costume is made unless you're a midget the costume just looks wrong.
Dogs + Yoda Costume = Fucking Funny.
This is the eqivilent of the aligning of planets. You can't ask for more. Not that cats in Yoda costumes are non existent. That's probably because cats suck.
The only thing better than a kid ina Yoda costume is one with a hottie mom. And a celeb one at that!
There are 3 options for Yoda costumes. Above is official licenced Yoda hats for kids.
Secondly there is Yoda masks complimented with a Yoda T-Shirt. Not exacly staying true to the films but still says "Yoda" to potential houses when asking for candy.
Lastly there's home made custom Yoda costumes. As you can see kids don't like you cheaping out. Also how will George Lucas make money if you don't buy official licenced goods?
If you really have your heart set on a Yoda Costume for Halloween your best bet is to go as Luke Skywalker and have the Yoda backpack. It's the perfect comprimise plus you can use the backpack the rest of the year, not just at Halloween.
And if you're female you're basically limited to two Star Wars costumes. Sexy slave Leia and the Sexy Blue/Green Slave girl costume. Sorry thems the rules.
I would use my Jedi mind trick en masse right now.
Don't try and do a female Yoda costume. As Yoda should be like Smurfs. Male only.

The Sims 3 Facing DelayThough The Sims 3 was initially set to ship on February 20, publisher Electronic Arts tells Edge that it's "evaluating the launch window," suggesting a possible delay.
The official UK site for the anticipated PC lifestyle simulation sequel now lists a "TBA" release date, with the official US site promising that it's "coming in 2009."
While retailer listings are often an indication of a delay, online retailer Amazon.com shows both versions arriving during the week of February 15, with GameStop and Best Buy likewise indicating a North American release in the days following February 20.

CAMBRIDGE, Mass. (MyFoxBoston.com/AP) - A man has been arrested in connection with a stabbing in a Cambridge Park.
Police say they found the victim suffering from multiple stab wounds in JFK Park on Memorial Drive just before 9 p.m. Sunday.
Witnesses told police that the suspect approached the victim and muttered something about "being robbed in Oregon," before pulling out a knife and stabbing him multiple times in the back, hip and neck. The man was taken to Beth Israel Hospital with injuries that were not life-threatening.
Police said they arrested 25-year-old Nicolas Baker, of Guildford, Vt. in connection with the attack. He was charged with assault and battery with a dangerous weapon and malicious destruction of property.
Police said Baker became enraged while being booked and punched a booking room wall.
He will be arraigned in Cambridge District Court Monday.

Porting checklist
- Are there any camelCase functions left?
- Are all examples in scripts. Do they work?
- Should we rename anything? Now is the chance to do it.
- Are all the name changes in fixes/?
- If you renamed anything, you have to rename it also in 2.5 testing scripts, in fixes and in Orange 2.5 code. Orange 2 code should be left as is.
- Do you get any Deprecation Warnings? (Python 2.7 users should enable them python -Wall)
Avoid conversational style that was common in previous documentation (for example, rewrite sentences containing "you"). Avoid future tense; use present instead (for example, "classifier will be used" -> classifier is used").
Examples of documentation that is OK:
- http://orange.biolab.si/doc/reference/Orange.data.variable/
- http://orange.biolab.si/doc/reference/Orange.feature.scoring/
- http://orange.biolab.si/doc/reference/Orange.classification.knn/
Documentation checking stories: #882, #933, #939, #966, #986.
Code samples
Each code sample should be a python script and should only be (perhaps partially) referenced in the file. Never copy the code into the documentation. This also holds for most of the one-liners, as code in separate files is much easier to test and fix when interface changes.
Import just Orange and use full paths. Avoid exceptions. Never import *.
Use download to link downloadable files, for example
See :download:`this example script <../example.py>`.
Delete "uses dataset.tab" from introductions to examples, because data sets from the documentation can now be loaded easily. Decide whether the .py file needs to be linked yourself.
Referencing other classes, functions, methods
If it is clear what are writing about, use shorter form, for example, :obj:`~Orange.classification.rules.X` instead of :obj:`Orange.classification.rules.X`.
CamelCase to underscore_separated
Names of methods, functions, (object) attributes and keyword attributes of functions should all be underscore_separated. Abbreviations should also be in lower case. For example, we should rename AUCWilcoxon to auc_wilcoxon (and not AUC_wilcoxon).
For now, all C++ code is accessible both with CamelCase and underscore separated (detailed description). Python code should be converted with name deprecation decorators (see the page for an example).
Refactoring tool
Do forget to update the refactoring rules.
Output of models
Output of learning models. Learning models (classifiers, regressors) need to have __str__ defined. If it needs a parameter, also add a to_string method, but __str__ should still return something. For example
data = Orange.data.Table("titanic") c = Orange.classification.tree.TreeLearner(data) print c #prints out the model print c.to_string(max_depth=1) #with some special formatting
Model plotting
The most typical one should be plot(), but if there are multiple different plots, prefix them with plot_, for example plot_dendrogram.
Data set naming
In documentation, do not use table. Name of the data set is preferred (but just data is also acceptable), so write:
iris = Orange.data.Table("iris")
In code, use data.
General coding convention
General coding conventions can be checked using pylint (it checks many other things too, like unused variables ...). You can install it using pip, easy_install or your favorite package manager. There is a pylintrc configuration file in repository root - pylint will use it automatically if run from within the repository structure.
pylint Orange/classification/tree.py
To filter out only naming conventions
pylint -rn -iy Orange/classification/tree.py | grep C0103

Now, after a run that has had a tremendous impact on numerous charities, the Central Ohio Restaurant Association and the Columbus Food & Wine Affair are bringing those special events to a close.
Because of the vision and hard work of so many, wine experts and novices and culinary enthusiasts alike have enjoyed the Grand Tasting, Discover Hospitality, Cena di Vino and the Cocktail Classic, helping to raise over $500,000 to benefit local charities, including the Central Ohio Restaurant Association Foundation Education and Scholarship Fund, The Columbus Foundation, WBNS-10TV Family Fund, Franklin Park Conservatory, Mid-Ohio Foodbank and many others.Our event partners, leadership and volunteers deserve a sincere thank you for lending their expertise and energy to the Columbus Food & Wine Affair, helping to produce incomparable events that were enjoyed by all who attended. As well, we cannot express enough our gratitude to the hundreds of wineries and restaurants that joined us year after year, continuously adding to our success. Central Ohio is known for its philanthropic culture and, not surprisingly, has been warm and welcoming, proving how fortunate we are to live and work in such a generous community.
The Columbus Food & Wine Affair leadership believes, however, that it is time to make way for new vision and ideas. The door is open to create the "next big experience" that will showcase the finest in culinary and hospitality that central Ohio has to offer while playing a philanthropic role in our community. We look forward to sharing what this will be and presenting more spectacular, dynamic events in the future.
The Central Ohio Restaurant Association, it's Foundation, beneficiaries, partners and vendors wish to thank the central Ohio food and wine enthusiast community for joining us these past years. The successes that have been enjoyed are due to the amazing support of our vibrant and giving community.

Goodness, considering that John is only about 4 years older than Karkat, raising the troll would be quite a feat! Thankfully though, Dad raised both of them, all be it in very different ways and with very different methods of 'child' rearing in the case of Karkat.

ri C 1 ; I to Mr - -1 "- am 3 r'"'nM ii a M in-" i Volume 39 Number 35 .rain 71 o fo "71 iO oiiaiiiiiea tor -U- final election by Beverly Taggart Candidate of academic vice president, Jim Hajimomen, is unqualified to run for office according to the student government election by-laws. The by-laws state: "Candidates must be full time students and have a cumulative grade point average of 2.0 or greater." According to the registration office, Hajimomen is only registered for 4 credit hours this quarter. When the Signpost notified student government, they said they were unaware of the candidate's credit hours. Dave Nielson, election chairman, said Hajimomen was in violation and he would either have to withdraw from the election or be disqualified. He also noted, the candidate could appeal to Weber State College Student Supreme Court. At first, Hajimomen said he did ASWSC candidates state views on issues by Linda Ferguson All WSC students are entitled to vote for the student government candidate of their choice tomorrow and Thursday; hopefully more than five per cent of the studentbody will take advantage of their right. Final elections are tomorrow and Thursday for ASWSC officers. Poll times are from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. and 6 to 8 p.m. both days. Students must show their identification cards to vote. Polling booths will be in the Union and Social Science Buildings, and in the Science Center. Presidential Candidates Bryan Steele and Alan Bybee are the candidates for president. Steele would like to see campus organizations that receive money try to become self-sustaining. "When there is always this money coming in, "he said, "organizations tend to depend on it." "I would like to examine the reasons behind having a security police force on campus. A budget of $170,000 is alloted to them, when it seems like work-studies could give out parking tickets just as well. We could hire policemen on contract when we need them, as is the policy at USU," Steele stated. Steele continued, "Academic excellence should be emphasized siot not have to be a full time student to run in the election. He then said he was making up 8 incomplete credit hours from last quarter, so he had a total of 12 credit hours. However, Dean of Admissions and Records Milton Dean, said Hajimomen had to be registered for 10 credit hours this quarter to be a full time student. Milton noted that the 8 incomplete hours did not qualify the candidate to run for office. Hajimomen then said he had 13 credit hours for serving three years in the Iranian Army, so that could be added to his hours this quarter and qualify him as full time. Dean Mecham said, "No, that's not true. He has to be registered for 10 credit hours this quarter." Hajimomen has appealed to the Supreme Court, and at press time, the decision is unknown. more at WSC. After all, that's why a college exists, not just to have most awards going for athletics. If students know they will be recognized for academic excellence, they will try harder." Alan Bybee stressed the importance of continuity in government. "It is more viable to give the students a chance to complete what they have started. It takes time; we've been working on it all year, and now we've reached the point where it will hurt the students in the long run if experienced officers are not kept in office. We've been working with the administration and get along quite well with President Brady and the vice president ," he said. Bybee continued, "We're working on teacher evaluations, and with the international students. For example, I've reached a good, working agreement with the Indian students and so I know what needs to be done. We've cut back on spending and would like to maybe even arrange student fees so that the athletic complex can be completed even sooner. This would give us more raquetball courts and allow us to keep the gym open seven days a week."

He has been involved with student services activities with Brent Neal, current vice president. Four main projects Fronberg would like to further include an information center. "This could be a tape even, so that when potential students call up on weekends, someone at the front desk in the U.B. could just push in the tape. Catalogs would also be available," he said. Fronberg would also like to help married students, he said, "As I am a licensed real-estate agent, I would like to provide some mini-classes for married couples about buying a house. The advantages to buying a house greatly outweigh paying rent. Also, I would like to schedule a few talks by a marriage counselor."The Special Olympics and the Big Brother-Big Sister program are two other activities Fronberg would emphasize. Arave is a 21 year old political science major. He iwll be a senior next fall and is an Ogden native. He is currently a member of. the pre-law club, Executive Council, and on the sports committee for LDSSA. If elected Arave plans to reinstate the day care center, press for a married student complex, and get more students involved in student government.

|Weber's current student newspaper, the Signpost, first appeared on September 29, 1937. For two years prior to that time, campus news was disseminated via announcements posted on a bulletin board known as the "Signpost". As a result, the masthead of the first issue of the paper itself featured a rudimentary wooden sign with the title spelled out in rustic-looking letters. Over the years the paper has been published continuously, though the look, size and style has changed several times.

Get The Facts:
The Dangers of Possessing Exotic Animals
- In June 1999, a 10-year-old girl dies after being brutally attacked by one of her stepfather's "pet" tigers. The young girl is in the tiger's cage helping her stepfather groom the animal when the tiger attacks.1
- In December 1998, a healthy 5 month-old girl suddenly dies at home after contracting salmonella from the family's pet iguana. The girl has no direct contact with the iguana yet contracts salmonella.2
- In February 2000, a woman is viciously attacked by her "pet" macaque monkey. The monkey leaps from his open cage onto the woman's head, and makes gashes 6 inches deep and other cuts to her head, arms, and legs. The woman spends over a week in the hospital and must undergo more than 12 weeks of physical therapy. The monkey has bitten the woman on two other occasions and previously attacked the family dog.3

Large Wild and Exotic Cats Make Dangerous Pets
Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service
Miscellaneous Publication No. 1560
Large wild and exotic cats such as lions, tigers, cougars, and leopards are dangerous animals. The U.S. Department of Agriculture's (USDA) Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service (APHIS) believes that only qualified, trained professionals should keep these animals, even if they are only to be pets. Care and handling of these wild and exotic cats should be left to trained professionals who have the knowledge and means to maintain them properly.

Frequency of release: Monthly
Language: English
Geographical coverage: UK
Geographical breakdown: Region
The ONS House Price Index (HPI), previously published by the Department for Communities and Local Government (DCLG) is a monthly release that publishes figures for mix-adjusted average house prices and house price indices for the UK and its component countries and regions. The index is calculated using mortgage financed transactions that are collected via the Regulated Mortgage Survey by the Council of Mortgage Lenders. These cover the majority of mortgage lenders in the UK.
The HPI statistical bulletin provides comprehensive information on the change in house prices on a monthly and annual basis. It also includes analysis by country, region, type of buyer (first-time buyers and former owner-occupiers) and type of dwelling (new dwelling or pre-owned dwelling). Historical series for all accompanying tables are also available in the data section of this release.
The transfer of the HPI from DCLG to ONS took place in April 2012. All associated HPI tables that were previously published by DCLG (tables A1–A7 and live tables 502–508, 511–517, 521, 523, 534–540, 557, 571, 572 & 590–594) are now available in the HPI reference tables which can be accessed via the data section of this release. Note that ONS have renumbered these tables as part of the transfer. A full look-up table is included in each HPI reference table that will allow users to locate the new ONS table number. The content of these tables has not changed.
All historical HPI data previously published by DCLG will remain on the DCLG website for at least the next 12 months.
ONS has published Official House Price Statistics Explained, a guidance document that details the ONS HPI methodology and explains the differences between the different sources of official house price statistics.
Revisions this month
New mix-adjustment weights for 2013 have been implemented in the current release. This update has revised the January 2013 mix-adjusted prices (in tables 2, 4 and 6). For further details on the annual update of weights, please see the 're-weighting' section in the statistical bulletin. There are small revisions to the seasonally adjusted series for the last 12 months, which are expected from the monthly seasonal adjustment process.
Revisions expected next month
The March 2013 release will incorporate transactions from those lenders that provide data on a quarterly basis. This is likely to produce small revisions to January and February 2013 data.
Other useful information:
From the April 2012 statistical bulletin onwards, average mix-adjusted house prices are published rounded to the nearest £1,000.
ONS HPI monthly and quarterly tables (numbers 1 to 19). (3.22 Mb Excel sheet) This reference table provides full historical series for the monthly tables accompanying the House Price Index statistical bulletin. This month, tables 1 to 9 have been updated with the latest monthly data for February 2013. Average mix-adjusted house prices for January 2013 in tables 2, 4 and 6 have been revised to reflect new weights for 2013. The seasonally adjusted figures for the last 12 months in Table 7 have also been revised this month as scheduled. This reference table also contains all the quarterly live tables transferred to ONS from DCLG. No updates have been made to the quarterly tables this month. Please note that during the transfer ONS renumbered the live tables. Full details of the new table numbers and their corresponding DCLG table numbers can be found in the 'contents' page of the reference table.
ONS HPI annual tables (numbers 20 to 39). (1.14 Mb Excel sheet) This reference table contains all the annual live tables transferred to ONS from DCLG. There are no updates to any of the annual tables this month.

Leading up to SportsCentre's Year In Review on Christmas Eve, TSN and TSN.ca look back at each of the Top 10 stories of 2012.
Today, TSN Radio 1050's Scott Ferguson looks at the headline-grabbing offseason of the Toronto Blue Jays.
There has to be an end before there can be a new beginning.
And the Toronto Blue Jays' disaster of a 2012 season got full closure when the ball club worked out an arrangement with Boston in October to allow skipper John Farrell to take his "Dream Job" of managing the Red Sox. Though not considered direct compensation by MLB rules, the Jays received veteran middle infielder Mike Aviles from the Red Sox in return for pitching prospect David Carpenter. And just like that, it was the end of the John Farrell era in Toronto (154-170).
At that point, no one knew quite what to expect. It was clear when the Blue Jays lost three starting pitchers to injury in a four-day span in June, the club had to add some veteran arms to the rotation in the offseason. Most believed they might be able to land one ace and maybe one of two more who could slot in at the back end of the rotation. But it soon become clear we had underestimated the resolve of general manager Alex Anthopoulos and the sudden willingness of Rogers to spend significant money. We could call this the 58 days that shook the Toronto Blue Jays universe.
From the day Farrell left town, Anthopoulos acquired not one, but three pitching aces who at various times had been the lead men in their club's rotations. They also came up with a star shortstop and a somewhat disgraced left fielder who was blossoming into stardom.
And to just about everyone's surprise brought back a manager who had only been gone about four years. The first strike came on Nov. 3, a mere appetizer if you will. The Jays shipped catcher/DH Yan Gomes and Mike Aviles to Cleveland for hard throwing right reliever Esmil Rogers, another strong arm to go with the two relievers they had picked up at the July 31 trade deadline - Steve Delabar and Brad Lincoln. Nov. 8 - Step 2. The Blue Jays signing utility infielder Maicer Izturis away from the Angels as a free agent to a three-year deal, plus an option worth a guaranteed $12 million. On Nov. 14 came the trade that will be talked about for years. The Blue Jays pulled off a 12-playes mega-deal with the salary dumping Miami Marlins. The Blue Jays acquired two bonafide top of the rotation arms in lefty Mark Buehrle and right hander Josh Johnson. And if that wasn't enough, they added star shortstop Jose Reyes, infielder/outfielder Emilio Bonafacio and catcher John Buck. The deal wasn't officially approved by Commisioner Bud Selig until Nov. 19, largely over concerns the Marlins were ripping their franchise apart just a year after moving into a largely publicly funded state of the art new ballpark. In the end, the deal went through with the Marlins receiving seven players - including two veterans and four who could be considered pretty good prospects. The Marlins got right-hander Henderson Alvarez, lefty Justin Nicolino, shortstop Adeiny Hechavarria, outfielder Jake Marisnick, veteran catcher Jeff Mathis and pitching prospect Anthony DeSclafani. In terms of numbers, it was the largest trade in Blue Jays history. The day after that trade was confirmed, there was another flurry of activity. The Blue Jays brought back John Gibbons as manager, a move that surprised reporters and fans alike. Gibbons's name had never surfaced in the rumour mill after Farrell had left. Gibbons, an affable man with southern roots and a deep passion for baseball, had managed the Jays to a (305-305) record from 2004 when he replaced Carlos Tosca in season, to 2008 when he was replaced in turn by Cito Gaston. That same day, the club confirmed the signing of veteran lefty fielder Melky Cabrera to a two-year deal worth $16 million. Cabrera had left San Francisco in a shade of disgrace after being suspended for 50 games in the heat of a pennant race for testing positive for elevated levels of testosterone.
Though the move appeared a bit risky, Gibbons - who knew Cabrera - from his coaching days at Kansas City vouched for him as a player and a person. That move showed just how committed the Jays were to being top-notch contenders in 2013. It would have been a lot easier to avoid the controversy and not sign Cabrera. And Anthopoulos wasn't done yet. He wanted one more blue chip starting pitcher - one who could be his ace.
After countless rumours, the New York Mets were going to trade Cy Young-winning knuckleballer R.A Dickey. It finally happened, when they realized they couldn't get his name on a workable contract extension. On Dec. 17, the Mets swapped the 38-year-old Dickey and his magicial pitch to the Blue Jays along with his personal catchers Josh Thole and Mike Nickeas (who hails from Vancouver) for two prime prospects catcher Travis D'Arnaud and right hander Noah Syndergaard, along with catcher John Buck and outfield prospect Wuilmer Becerra. This is arguably the greatest off-season makeover of a team in baseball history. It's certainly the only time I can remember an organization acquiring three potential No. 1 starters in such a short period of time. The Blue Jays have also bumped their payroll for 2013 into the $125 million range, about $40 million over last season. Oddsmakers in Las Vegas have already made them the favourites to win the World Series. It's truly amazing how far this team has come in less than two months. And to think - the two biggest rosters moves the Blue Jays made in May and June of last season were the signings of Vladimir Guerrero and ageless lefty Jamie Moyer to minor league deals. Neither panned out and both were released before suiting up in Toronto. At the time, both of those moves generated some excitement in the city, but just a ripple compared to what has happened over those 58 days in November and December.

Can bunnies have as much alfalfa hay as they like??
Can bunnies have as much alfalfa hay as they like??
I think the amount they eat should be monitored, as Alfalfa is high in calcium. Might be worth feeding half and half with another hay. Certainly not recommended for Rabbits prone to bladder stones/sludging.
I didn't think rabbits were supposed to have alfalfa at all?
Edana and the boys
What made you think the Edana?
I always thought Alphalpha was fine for baby/growing buns and elderly buns, but in moderation, and as Louise says shouldn't be given to buns with sludge prblems.
C.A.R.R.O.T. (Care And Rehoming Rabbits Of Tayside)
Thanks guys, glad I only bought Sophie a little bag and have given her only a few peices at a time!!!! Think I will stick to normal hay, she likes that just as much!!!!
This article by 'the bunny guru' says alfalfa is too high in protein, calories and calcium for bunnies (except maybe growing youngsters)
Edana and the boys
phew, glad I checked it out with you very knowlegdeable (sp??!) people first!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :wink:
I thought it was only discouraged as a staple hay or main part of their diet but as a treat is fine (for buns with no calcium problems). Mine get alfalfa cubes as occasional treats.
RIP My Babies: Fudge, Zeus, Athena, Violet, Cosmos & Pierre!
I feed alfalfa daily, but only give one handfull a day, as that's what it says on the bag. Jack enjoys it a lot more than regular hay, I mix it in to encourage him to eat more ordinary hay.
Bkz I didn't know how much to give Sof, that's what I was doing too!! No wonder she enjoyed the alfalfa so much... all the yummy things are fattening/bad for you
*goes to look for chocolate!*

After over a century of being banned, gay youth are now allowed to be a part of the Boy Scouts. But gay adult leaders and parents are still not permitted to participate.
More than 1,000 voting members of the group's national council took part in Thursday's historic decision; 61% voted in favor.
More than 1.5 million signatures were collected in support of the anti-gay ban. The Golden Spread Council Boy Scouts says "89% of all youth in the Golden Spread Council are 15 or younger; It is therefore unlikely that this new membership standard will impact much in the way scouting is delivered in our area."
A NewsChannel 10 Facebook poll conducted Thursday reflects 68% of the people agree with allowing gay youth, the rest are against.
Current membership standards will remain in place until changes take effect beginning of next year.
