By Soyoung Kim and Jessica HallOct 18 (Reuters) - Several small-to-mid-sized healthcare assets have garnered interest from private equity firms, with Medtronic Inc's Physio-Control unit fetching bids after past efforts to sell the business failed, sources said.In February, Medtronic said it had restarted the process of finding a buyer for its Physio-Control unit, which makes automated external defibrillators. The unit has about $450 million per year in revenue.Although the Medtronic unit has failed to find a buyer in the past, it now has received interest from private equity firms in an auction process that is "pretty far along," said a source familiar with the situation, who declined to be named because he was not authorized to speak to the media.Private equity firms have been active in healthcare this year, as they bet on rising use of services by aging populations in the United States, Europe and elsewhere.Medtronic said it was proceeding with the divestiture as planned, but declined further comment.Meanwhile, World Courier Ground, which provides quick delivery services for medical samples, legal briefs and financial documents, has been put up for sale, sources said. The sources could not be identified because the talks were not public.The courier business has attracted a wide array of interest from private equity firms and rival delivery services, said the source.World Courier could not be immediately reached for comment.Meanwhile, Press Ganey Associates Inchas attracted takeover interest from firms including TPG Capital LPHellman & Friedman, sources said.Press Ganey collects data and performs surveys that medical centers and hospitals use to improve service, cut costs and increase patient care.Press Ganey, which has about $100 million in EBITDA (earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization), could fetch at least 10-times EBTIDA in a sale, sources said.Press Ganey, TPG and Hellman & Friedman were not immediately available to comment.Another healthcare auction, PRA International, fell apart a few weeks ago, sources said. It is possible that a bidder could come back with a low offer to try to scoop up the asset as a bargain, one source said.PRA, a contract research company, could not be immediately reached for comment. Contract research organizations provide drug research services to pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies.The last big private equity deal in healthcare was also for a contract research company, Pharmaceutical Product Development Inc . PPD was acquired for $3.9 billion in cash by Carlyle GroupHellman & Friedman.
* Co says sold record number of two wheelers in Q2Oct 18 (Reuters) - Hero MotoCorp , India's largest motorcycle maker, reported a better-than-expected 19 percent rise in quarterly profit, and said it is confident of growing sales despite concerns over rising inflation and fuel costs in Asia's third-largest economy.High interest rates that have dented car sales are expected to benefit two-wheeler manufacturers, with many first-time buyers plumbing for motorcycles or scooters in the world's second-fastest growing major auto market."We remain confident of carrying forward the buoyancy in our sales. We expect our retail volumes to peak during the festive month of October," Hero MotoCorp CEO Pawan Munjal said in a statement. He added the company was expanding capacity to meet the expected demand.Industry motorcycle sales in September rose 20 percent from a year previous, against a 1.8 percent fall in domestic car sales, industry data showed this month.Hero MotoCorp, which ended a 26-year joint venture with Japan's Honda Motors this year, said it sold a record 1.5 million two-wheelers during the quarter, a growth of 20 percent from a year earlier. The company has targeted sales of over six million vehicles in this fiscal year, Munjal had said in July.The New Delhi-based firm reported net profit of 6.04 billion rupees ($123 million) for its fiscal second quarter ended September, up from 5.06 billion rupees a year earlier. Net sales rose 28 percent to 57.84 billion rupees.Analysts on average expected net profit 5.6 billion rupees on revenue of 58 billion rupees, according to Thomson Reuters I/B/E/S.Raw material costs increased by more than a quarter to 42.64 billion rupees.Earlier this year, Hero Investments agreed to buy Honda's 26 percent stake in the joint venture, formerly known as Hero Honda, for around $851 million.The deal gave Hero freedom to explore new products and export opportunities in markets where Honda has a presence, a move it had been barred from while in the joint venture, but marked its former partner as a competitor for domestic sales.It also faces growing competition from rivals such as Bajaj Auto .Shares in Hero MotoCorp ended down 0.4 percent on Tuesday ahead of the results, after rising as much as 1.1 percent, in a Mumbai market that fell 1.6 percent.Hero MotoCorp shares, valued at $8.1 billion, are down 0.1 percent this year, compared with a more than 13 percent in the sector index and a decline of over 18 percent in the benchmark index .

* Republicans question agency's authority over contractorsBy Ayesha RascoeWASHINGTON, Oct 13 (Reuters) - BP will be allowed to participate in an upcoming U.S. offshore oil and gas lease sale despite its role in the largest offshore oil spill in U.S. history, a top government regulator said on Thursday.Michael Bromwich, head of the newly formed Bureau of Safety and Environmental Enforcement, said his agency determined that it would not be appropriate to ban BP from obtaining new leases to drill offshore."They don't have a deeply flawed record offshore," Bromwich told reporters after testifying at a House Natural Resources committee hearing."The question is, 'Do you administer the administrative death penalty based on one incident?' and we've concluded that's not appropriate."The department has scheduled a lease sale in December, offering more than 20 million acres for development in the western Gulf of Mexico.It will be the first offshore lease sale since an explosion on the Deepwater Horizon rig last year killed 11 workers and ruptured BP's Macondo well, spewing more than 4 million barrels of oil into the Gulf of Mexico.In the days after the accident, observers raised the possibility that the government may bar BP from moving ahead with its offshore drilling program in response to the disaster.SLAP ON THE WRISTRepresentative Edward Markey, the top Democrat on the House committee, said he thinks the government should reconsider its decision not to suspend BP.He also called for Congress to raise the fines that companies face for violating offshore drilling regulations.The drilling enforcement agency issued citations on Wednesday against BP and its top contractors, Transocean and Halliburton , for last year's drilling accident. By law, the companies face fines of up to $35,000 a day, per incident for the violations.Based on that statute and length of time between the explosion and the capping of the Macondo well, Markey said that BP would face at most $21 million in fines for its seven citations. He said Halliburton and Transocean would each face at most $12 million in fines.Markey said he thinks the fines are not high enough, with BP's potential penalties representing just seven hours of profit for the company by his estimates."That fine obviously does not even begin to approach the amount needed to be a deterrent against a repeat of this tragedy. That fine is a slap on the wrist," Markey said at the hearing.Bromwich agreed that the penalties need to be raised, reiterating his call that civil fines should at least be in the six-figure range.The agency has not offered details on the amount of fines the companies may face. Bromwich said the agency will have to determine what time period would be used to assess fines for each citation.Some Republican lawmakers at the hearing questioned the agency's authority to issue citations to contractors. Traditionally, the agency has only regulated well operators.Bromwich said government lawyers believe the agency can go after contractors based on statutes in the Outer Continental Shelf Lands Act.
* Toyota to close 3 plants until at least Oct 15, Nissan still open* Nikon, Canon, Nippon Meat Packers also affectedTOKYO, Oct 12 (Reuters) - Honda Motor Co said its Thai plant remains under water as flooding in the centre of the country worsens, closing down 4.7 percent of its global output and hammering other Japanese firms that have made the nation their Southeast Asian production hub.The flooding, in some ways reminiscent of the March 11 earthquake and tsunami that destroyed factories and crumpled supply chains in Japan, has forced local and foreign companies to shutter plants or evacuate personnel as waters rise.Among Japan's big three automakers, Honda risks losing the most from the floods.Toyota Motor Corp has been forced to curtail production because of disruption to its supply of parts rather than any physical damage to its own facilities, while Nissan said it may experience some disruption."Cars at the facility (in Ayutthaya, central Thailand) appear to be floating," Honda spokesman Tomohiro Okada said.As no one is allowed into the area, Honda is still unable to assess the damage to production machinery or give any estimate of when output, halted since Oct. 4, can restart, he added."We think resuming production will take some time," Nomura analyst Masataka Kunugimoto wrote in a report.If it takes three months, that would mean lost production of 60,000 vehicles and could shave 25 billion yen ($325 million) off operating profit, he estimated. For the year to March 31, Honda expects operating profit of 270 billion yen.Honda's Thai plant supplies parts to other factories in the region, so the damage may infect its supply chain and hurt output in other locations unless it can rustle up parts from elsewhere."Capacity utilisation in Japan is already high to meet post-earthquake recovery demand, so Honda's Japanese plants may not be able to supply sufficient volumes," Kunugimoto said in his report.Toyota said on Wednesday that it would close its three Thai plants, which account for around 8 percent of its global production, until at least Oct. 15 because of a dearth of parts.Nissan's plant will operate normally until Thursday, a spokesman said, but output from Friday remains "a question mark".Other Japanese firms affected by the floods include Nikon Corp , which was forced to halt production of cameras in Thailand, while Canon said it would be unable to operate its printer plant in Ayutthaya until at least Friday because of flooding.Nippon Meat Packers , Japan's leading maker of ham and sausages, said on Wednesday that two of its plants in the region had been closed since Saturday and it was not yet sure when they would reopen.Shares of Honda fell 2.2 percent, compared with a 0.4 percent decline in the benchmark Nikkei average. Toyota fell 0.3 percent, Nissan dropped 1.6 percent and Nikon lost 3.5 percent. Canon ended the day 0.3 percent lower with Nippon Meat Packers losing 1.5 percent.
* At $3.4 bln, would be biggest fund buyout in Japan since 2008 crisisTOKYO, Oct 12 (Reuters) - U.S. private equity firm Bain Capital plans to finalise a deal to buy Japanese restaurant chain Skylark Co from a unit of Nomura Holdings Inc for about 260 billion yen ($3.4 billion), a source with knowledge of the matter said.At that price the transaction would mark the biggest private equity buyout in Japan since the 2008 financial crisis and highlight a revival of deal making following Japan's devastating March 11 earthquake and tsunami.Bain Capital began talks with Nomura Principal Finance to buy Skylark last year. Negotiations were put on hold after the March earthquake and slowed again in August after an outbreak of dysentery traced to Skylark restaurants.Talks between Bain and Nomura Principal are in the final stages and the two sides aim to reach an agreement by the end of the month before Nomura Holdings reports its earnings for the July-September quarter, the source said, speaking on condition of anonymity because the deal is not yet public.Nomura Holdings, Japan's largest brokerage, said in a statement that media reports on the deal did not represent announcements by the company.Officials at Bain and Skylark declined to comment.In dollar terms, the $3.4 billion price tag is the same as in March, before the earthquake delayed the deal.Nomura Principal, the broker's buyout unit, has been unloading portfolio companies, agreeing to sell ball bearing maker Tsubaki Nakashima Co to Carlyle Group for about $800 million earlier this year.Nomura Principal originally invested in Skylark in 2006 through a management buyout with UK private equity firm CVC Capital Partners . It currently controls a 77.8 percent stake in the restaurant chain along with other investors with money in a Nomura fund.
ISS, which advises large institutional investors on proxy voting, had criticized the board's lack of independence and poor stewardship even as News Corp reeled from the fallout of a phone hacking scandal at its London-based News of the World tabloid.News Corp hit back against the criticism. ISS' "disproportionate focus on the News of the World matter is misguided," the company said, but acknowledged the scandal could affect the wider business' operations.ISS had called for shareholders to vote News Corp Chief Executive Officer Rupert Murdoch, his two sons James and Lachlan, and 10 other directors off the board in the Oct. 21 election.The proxy advisory firm was also critical of the compensation package for Rupert Murdoch even as the phone hacking scandal threatened to destabilize the business.News Corp told shareholders its CEO's compensation reflected the performance of the company during a successful period.

U.S. Department of Labor
US Department of Labor petitions federal court to enforce judgment against Memphis restaurants
Tasty Buffet and Tasty China Buffet owe more than $450,000 in back wages and damages
MEMPHIS, Tenn. -- The U.S. Department of Labor has asked a federal court in Memphis to enforce a judgment of $459,658 against Tasty Buffet and Tasty China Buffet.
In 2007, the U.S. District Court for the Middle District of Tennessee awarded this judgment after determining that the restaurants' owners, Min Fang Yang and Huo Guang Huang, failed to comply with the Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA) by failing to pay the federal minimum wage, failing to pay overtime compensation for hours worked over 40 in a workweek and failing to maintain accurate records of the hours worked by employees at the two restaurants.
After the district court judgment, the defendants filed an appeal with the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Sixth Circuit, which subsequently denied the defendants' appeal of the district court's ruling.
The Labor Department's current petition asks that the district court require the defendants to show cause for why they should not be held in civil contempt, and failing to do so, be judged in contempt of the court and required to pay the full amount listed in the judgment plus post-judgment interest and the expenses arising out of this litigation.
"Employees have waited long enough for their back wages and deserve the earnings awarded them in the original court judgment," said Oliver Peebles III, acting regional administrator for the Wage and Hour Division in Atlanta.
The FLSA requires that covered employees be paid at least the federal minimum wage for all hours worked and time and one-half their regular rates of pay for hours worked over 40 in a workweek. Tips actually received by tipped employees may be counted as wages for purposes of the FLSA, but the employer must pay not less than $2.13 an hour in direct wages. Tipped employees are those who customarily and regularly receive more than $30 a month in tips. Effective July 24, 2009, the federal minimum wage increased to $7.25 per hour.
This investigation was conducted by the Wage and Hour Division District Office in Nashville, 1321 Murfreesboro Road, Suite 511; phone: 615-781-5344. For more information about the FLSA, call the Department of Labor's toll-free helpline at 866-4US-WAGE (487-9243). Information is also available on the Internet at www.wagehour.dol.gov.

Is it wrong to post primal waters for 28g a piece, because everyone else is selling there's for 40g each. While just a week ago they were about 18g each. Some jackass comes in buys up all the primal waters and resells them for insane prices. In the end everyone either looks for a cheaper price via trade channel or they go farm there own.
Farmers like me on the other hand are happy when this happens. I have 300+ primals in my bankers bank... So when this happens I sell them for much more than I would of but, I am still way under the competition.
I spend very little time in Trade channel, I mostly use the AH. But I strongly dislike when things are ridiculously overpriced. At these times I'll hit the Trade channel and sell bargain basement. A primal life costs me only time to assemble; I can probably get 4-5 in an hour (I haven't timed it). They used to be about 18g each, now they're about 35g each. I can list them for 32-33g and easily move them, but if they're 40g+, I'd rather help out my faction (in my mind) and sell them in Trade for a price I'm comfortable with...and I've still turned a pure profit.
In practice, people just do a couple more dailies rather than go farm their own.
Maybe some people go farm their own, but for the most part people are very willing to pay extremely stupid prices on Arena Points Day to enchant their gear, or on We Just Killed Felmyst Day to get a new gem or enchant.
My sever has a fairly insane market, but it's vastly profitable if you're up for being a supplier or a smart reseller. Some days I can make upwards of 600-700g just by scanning the AH and buying underpriced things. I can't really be bothered to do dailies or farm primals, but I sure can find them on the AH from someone willing to undercut by more than the difference in the AH fees, so I make my money that way. I've got around 22k in the bank, but it's still fun to see how high the numbers can go...

Beyoncé will take the stage to sing the national anthem at President Barack Obama's inauguration later this month. The inaugural planning committee for the Jan. 21 event announced the news on Wednesday.
Bing: Watch Beyoncé perform 'At Last'
The star performed a rendition of Etta James' "At Last" at the Neighborhood Inaugural Ball when the president took office in 2009, and she has been chosen to sing for President Obama and first lady Michelle again to mark the beginning of his second term in the White House.
The singer will perform "The Star-Spangled Banner" at the ceremony, which will take place in Washington, D.C. Kelly Clarkson will also sing at the event, performing the traditional "My Country 'Tis of Thee," which Aretha Franklin tackled for the president four years ago, and singer/songwriter James Taylor will play "America the Beautiful."

Shane 2/20 Reviews
"Shh... You won't remember any of this, not me, not anything. And you'll not be able to move." I added the last note as if it were something trivial, trying to keep my gaze form his.
"What?!" Clay exclaimed. "Let go!" He was already becoming weak, his eyes were reddening up as well.
"There's a bonus though. You'll be able to feel me." I ravished his neck with kisses and lay him down. A few minutes until he was completely immobile.
"What's happening?!" He was trying to sit up again.
"I'm going to give you one last experience before you go. It's a favour really." I smiled, but not really at the quaking boy before me. It was a sad smile. One last nice thing, then he'd be gone.
I undid his jeans and pulled them off.
"You won't remember anything of me." I pulled down his undies. He yelled in startled protest but I took no notice. This was to be the last time with him, reasonably sober too. I smiled a grim little grin and without further warning took him into my mouth.
I always be nice to guys before I let 'em go. For once, I be nice to them, and let them feel good in thier last day of blackouts and pain....
He sat rigid in my front car seat, staring blankly. He'd given up, well and truly. Just accepting cruel fate.
I'd drive around near his house until he fainted, then sit him by a tree, holding a bottle. The perfect way to hide evidence.
"Shane..." He croaked.
"What is this all about? The ... The pills and......" I stroked his cheek.
"...It's just business to me. I liked you Clay, you liked me. Therefore, you have to leave." I have never been more sad to see somebody off. I tried not to let it on but was failing. I had fallen in love with him, if love can be so contradictory and onesided that is.
"Business? What business?!"
"You were my favourite." I gave in too, into pity for him. I only pitied Clay. Out of all my targets. Just him. That was love to me. When we were out together, just doing normal things, he was the closest thing I had to a proper friend in months. I could feel normal at times too.
Now I was just waiting until he blacked out. He'd never know me but I'll always know him.
This won't change my ways, it was simply because I'd become attached to him. Nobody comapared. More than a whore to me....
"I really loved you Clay. I hope that if you remember anything, it's that." I kissed him on the forehead and held him close. I heard soft sobs and wanted to add to them myself.
I wished we could meet again. I could imagine him walking down the street, he could walk right past me too, and never notice. To start again... No, I shouldn't ever love someone properly, not someone llke Clay, someone who I treat so oddly.
But I can't. I'm a pervert and love isn't something I can do. It could get me in prison. I've chosen my fate and hey, I enjoy all of the stalking and shit. Love shouldn't be natural to me, it really shouldn't. Yet that is the most human thing about me at all anymore. Supressed lvoe is so much more hungry.
I held him to me, praying he'd forget everything. All the times I'd decieved him, abused him. We were good friends too. Now this was the last time I'd allow myself to see him. Clay isn't just any of my.... my 'people', we started as real friends, I didn't mean for it to end up like all the other boys and girls. But, it was too tempting, I enjoyed the dominance over him even more than I do with the others.
Clay's head sunk and I knew this was it. I watched his motionless body for mintues,cherishing the last moments I could have him all to myself. He was out cold on a double overdose by my standards. I carried him to a tree, made him clutch an empty bottle of brandy to frame him, so he'd look like he'd got drunk. Nobody would ever find out. Everyone would assume he was at fault...

text: Robert's Heirloom Tomato Martini Last week, our resident mixologist Robert Crosson made an appearance on the Martha Stewart Radio Show. He shared four summer cocktail recipes: the "chef special" (grapefruit juice & tequila), a peach tarragon mojito, lovage lemonade, and an heirloom tomato martini with drops of basil oil (pictured above). As requested, here's Robert's step-by-step recipe for the martini. HEIRLOOM TOMATO MARTINI w/ Droplets of Basil Oil 2oz. lemon vodka 4oz. heirloom tomato water (see below) spl. lemon juice spl. simple syrup Combine all ingredients. Add ice & shake vigorously. Strain into a chilled martini glass. Add a few drops of basil oil. Garnish with a skewer of baby heirloom tomatoes. Optional: Rim the glass with Maldon Sea Salt & black pepper (pictured above). HEIRLOOM TOMATO WATER RECIPE 4 or 5 large over-ripe heirloom tomatoes 1 lemon (juice and peel) 1 orange (juice and peel) 1 jalapeno (deseeded and chopped) 5 basil leaves pinch of salt 1 cup of vodka Place all ingredients into a large bowl (except for the peels). Puree with submersible blender. Beat the peels with the back of a spoon (to release the oils) & add to the puree. Let set 12 to 24 hrs, then strain through paper towel, cheesecloth or coffee filter. This process will take a while, so it's best to refrigerate overnight. DON'T RUSH THIS PROCESS. The result will be a very clear & beautifully fragrant liquid. BASIL OIL RECIPE large bunch of basil leaves large bunch of parsley leaves 1 cup canola or veggie oil 1/2 cup olive oil pinch of salt Wash and pick basil & parsley leaves. Blanch & shock. Squeeze out excess water. Chop finely and separate. Pour canola oil into blender. Turn on blender and add the basil parsley mixture a little at a time. Add a big pinch of salt. Puree until it has the consistency of a loose pesto. Pour into container, then stir in olive oil. Place in refrigerator for 24 to 48 hrs. Then strain (same process as tomato water above). Result will be a beautifully clear dark green oil.

Elephant Building (Bangkok)
Meet the Elephant Building in Bangkok, Thailand. Designed by Sumet Jumsai and completed in 1997.
Egg Building (China)
This beautiful structure known as "The Egg" is China's National Centre for the Performing Arts. This dome-shaped building is submerged in water and contains an Opera House, a Concert Hall, and a Theater. Remarkably, this building is just as massive and intriguing below the surface of the water. "The Egg" is home to underwater corridors, an underwater garage, and even an artificial lake. The structure took over five years to build.
Coin Building (UAE)
Aldar headquarters building in Abu Dhabi. Designed by MZ Architects and opened in 2010. This coin-shaped building is the world's first circular skyscraper.
Wood Skyscraper (Vancouver)
The seemingly radical idea of building a skyscraper out of wood is not so strange after all, as architect Michael Green is quick to point out, because of two main advantages that wood has over concrete and steel – it's eco-friendly and cost-effective.
'Tallwood' would be made of large panels of 'laminated strand lumber'—a composite made by gluing together strands of wood. Trees are a renewable resource, and they help to reduce air pollution. Sourcing from sustainably-managed forests could be deemed more environmentally sensitive, according to CNN.
Unlike concrete—which produces about 6-9kg of carbon dioxide for every 10kg of concrete—wood sucks carbon out of the atmosphere. And contrary to popular belief, wood actually is quite fire-resistant.
"COR" building (Miami, Fl)
A new high rise is going up in Miami's design district, and its a lean, green, eco machine. A collaboration between Chad Oppenheim architecture + design, energy consultant Buro Happold, and structural engineer Ysreal Seinuk, the $40 million, 25-story, "COR" building will incorporate mixed-use residential and commercial space, integrating green technologies including wind turbines, photovoltaic panels, and solar hot water generation. The building's exoskeleton is a hyper-efficient structure that provides thermal mass for insulation, shade for residents, and architectural elements such as terraces and armatures that support turbines.
With the aim to attract creative and design-oriented businesses and professionals, the interior of COR features sleek commercial and comfortable residential spaces ranging from $400,000 to $2 million. Each residential unit will include Energy Star appliances, recycled glass tile flooring, and bamboo-lined hallways. In total, COR will play host to 113 residential units, 20,100 square feet of office space, and 5,400 square feet of retail space (which already includes a café and furniture store).

Possibly the craziest day in UFC history just got crazier.
After UFC president Dana White cancelled UFC 151 due to an injury to title challenger Dan Henderson, the promotion started shifting fights around, moving light heavyweight champion Jon Jones to the Toronto fight card later in the month.
Just hours after the new main event for UFC 152 was announced, pitting Jones against former champion Lyoto Machida, another change has been made.
According to White, via a report by MMAFighting.com, Machida opted to turn down the fight with Jones. In his place, former UFC light heavyweight champion Vitor Belfort will move back up to 205 pounds from middleweight, where he's currently been fighting, to face Jones in the headline bout for UFC 152 in Toronto.
More MMA
Belfort later tweeted that he got a call directly from White and UFC CEO Lorenzo Fertitta offering him the fight with Jones.
He went on to say, "Where a lot of guys are acting like divas I think this is a big challenge for any fighter. I have all the respect for Jones. That's why you can't miss this competition. I will not let no one down. I come from the times of Carlson Gracie. He lives inside of me."
Belfort earned his Brazilian jiu-jitsu black belt under Gracie, who passed away in 2006.
Belfort has been in Florida working with the Blackzilians, preparing for his upcoming bout against Alan Belcher at UFC 153 in Brazil, but will now step up on a month's notice to battle for the UFC light heavyweight strap instead.
The UFC has not decided on a replacement for Belfort to face Belcher as of yet.
Stay tuned to MMAWeekly.com for more UFC 151 cancellation news as it develops.
To anyone who has said Jon jones doesn't owe the UFC or anyone anything. Where does his coward ass think he would be if the UFC had never signed him? They weren't obligated to do so! Every red cent in his bank account came because of the UFC. He should be fighting anyone they put in front of him when they tell him. I am a huge Sonnen fan but even I know Chael should have to take a few fights before getting a shot but the UFC called him. Plain and simple. I don't think it will happen, but I hope Belfort ko's Jones. Jones should be a lot less selfish and a lot more thankful.
Hell, I'll fight Jon Jones if no one else will! What's wrong with these guys?
Very interesting turn of events…Hendo is too incompetent and unprofesional to stay healthy within a week of the fight…a huge array of LHW's turn down the fight with Bones…Machida the number one contender turns down the fight with Bones in a month…The UFC brass makes a card so weak that it only takes one guy to pullo out to cancel the entire show…but it is all Jon's fault bc he turned down a fight with a MW in Sonnen who just came off a very bad loss…I cant really see how this is all Jonnies fault?
Dude, I've read this same post on three different articles, how many times did you post the same thing? I know you're trolling, but, Hendo having a training accident, in what way makes him incompetent? It doesn't matter who or how many turned down the fight with JJ what matters is Chael took the fight, JJ had an opponent with almost the exact style and is a 185lb'er, and he refused to honor his contract and fight at UFC 151. It doesn't matter who Chael lost to last, who he fought last or if he deserved a title shot, he doesn't, he agreed to step up when his boss called and needed him to. I agree the UFC should have had a plan to go on with the fight no matter who pulled out but not having either headliner show up would have looked bad, worse than canceling, and people would of demanded their money back and the PPV wouldn't have been watched.
cant agree with you anymore man. you tell em!
I agree with LG, Hendo should be of blame here. How in the world did his team let him get injured 1week b4 showtime. Bottom line is, Bones in the Camp, and what he says goes!
Great comments so far. I do agree that Jon should not be completely blamed for the falling apart of UFC 151. The card is pretty weak, and without a co main event with a lot of star power (No disrespect to Ellenberger or Hieron) the card was doomed to fail without Jon Jones and Hendo headlining. The UFC really needs to start making sure that the co-main event can sell itself if this should ever happen again.
That being said, I don't think Jon refusing taking the fight with Chael has anything to do with money or credentials. Jon would have made far more money fighting Chael than Hendo, as the ppv numbers would have been much higher, thus putting more money in Jon's pocket. As far as credentials go, I highly doubt that Jon didn't want to take the fight with Chael because he isn't "worthy". Chael is a pretty big name in the sport, and while he does have a dubious track record in the past, he has been winning fights against everyone other than Anderson Silva.
Jon didn't take this fight because of exactly what Greg Jackson said; it's a lose lose. Technically, Jon didn't prepare for Chael, and shouldn't have to fight him for the sake of the UFC or its fighters. If Jon wiped the floor with Chael, everyone would say that Chael is a middleweight who came into the fight having not trained. If Jon lost, he would be a laughing stock for losing to a middleweight. For a thinker like Jon, who appears to be businessman first fighter second, it's a lose lose.
On a personal level, I am sick to my stomach. Jon Jones really could have saved the day here like so many other fighters have done in the past. It was quite alright to take the Shogun fight on such short notice but not ok to take this one. Jon is not going to win many fans here, and he had better hope he beats Vitor because he is on his way to becoming the most hated many in MMA.
Dude, I only wanna read one article, then the comments, not an article within an article
Completely agree, jbj wouldnt have a penny to his name had the UFC never existed. Really bad character on his part, he bit the hand that feeds him. Where would Greg Jackson be if there was no ufc?
Thank God we have some real fighters like Vitor wanting to step up and be a real man. Weidman vs. Belcher for number one MW contenders match also makes sense now.
Go to http://www.gopetition.com/petitions/nike-drop-jon-jones.html to sign a petition for Jon Jones to lose his Nike Sponsorship for refusing to fight Chael Sonnen and cancelling UFC 151.
seriously?! LMAO!!!!
Anyone that signs that is just plain stupid. Like it or not, he had the right to turn down that fight. It's the equivalent of giving the death penalty to a guy that got a parking ticket. You people need to get a life.
MMAGod. Why don't you shove it up your chili ring. Who the fawk are you to be telling people their plain stupid and to get a life? I said it once before and I'll say it again.
Anyone claiming "GOD" in their name, in any way, shape or form, obviously has a small penis. It's well known and universal. With that said. Why don't you pull your mothers Alan Stryker FX-14 Penis Enlarger off of your 2 inch purple headed Jones boner. It's not gonna help.
Sign the thing already. We all know you're going to. You're a follower. So quit cracking on people for their opinions and follow like the bitch you are.
@ greaseygranny: I think it is great that they allow people with special needs to post on here, such as yourself. Your posts are all full of uneducated garbage that nobody can relate to. Here's a thought: Get out of your mother's basement and come and talk to the rest of us adults when you do. Until then, go sign your petitions and continue screaming at the TV when things don't go your way. You seem to be quite the keyboard warrior in your mommy's basement. What a pathetic loser you come across as.
Strike a nerve with the small pee pee comment eh'? It is what it is bro. You can find comfort in the fact that it's not by your choice. That little thing is handed down from your mom and dad. Just genetics. With that said, there's all types of routes you can go to get it enlarged.
For not, just do as told and follow my little bitch.
Jones is a fiery crotch. I won't watch that chump again. Burn bridges like a little punk. No respect in him whatsoever. Drunk ass fool.
just signed it
So he was supposed to fight Hendo, a natural 185er, then he was supposed to fight machida, also a natural 185er(though he fights at 205), turned down sonnen, again, a 185er, turned down Weidman, a 185er, Anderson silva even offered to fight him! And he's now fighting Belfort, a 185er… Will someone at 205 please stand up! Is there anyone left??
That was exactly my thinking. Where in the hell are the guys that are actually in the 205lb. division? Seems to me that people should be pissed at more than just Jones here.
silva actually offered to fight another 205lber not jones. Silva said he'd never fight jones.
Style-wise, Sonnen would have been the easiest fight for Jones…he should have took the easy payday. Good for you Vitor for showing balls. Vitor will probably get choked out but I would laugh if he flattened Jones. I like Jones but he could stand to get knocked on his ass at least once.
Dang that fight with Hendo had way more intigue. Jones should fight Belfort and Sonnen in he same night to make up the deference!
Welcome to Jones making a complete market $$$$sale out of a lot of viewers this past 24hrs. Now people will tune in or order his fight just to hope to see him lose(or win if your a fanboy). welcome to the media people.
Actually it's the opposite. I just saved $50 every time he's on a card.
Christopherrolland that is an interesting view. That's why I love this site. Opens my eyes at times. I guess the clues were there as Jones was worried before about Machida ppv numbers. I like different points of view. Love him or hate him…the ppv numbers will be great!
I'm sure Jones will win and I wont be buying. I will be right here reading MMAWeekly's play-by-play.
Shame on Jones for turning down the Sonnen fight, but I don't blame Machida for turning this down. He already lost to Jon Jones so if he does so again then his career is in big trouble. He should wait for a full fight camp.
I hope Vitor beats Jones. Then, he can drop down to 185 and fight Silva for a super fight!
THIS JUST IN!!!! Vitor turned fight down, now it looks like Clay Guida has agreed to fill in CANT WAIT! WTF UFC. Dont have bum cards , i only was getting this for the Ellenberger fight anyway(Since i grew up wit him) but reality of it is ,is that jones would beat machida ,vitor and whoeva the hell else 9 out of ten times infact i liked the dude but thought he was a boring fighter after Vera just beacuse of the lack of competition , hes only been touched a couple times,never hurt and always unanimous "BORING " but already great and none of this is his fault people need to question Hendo a little more,and the UFC should always hav stacked cards like that Nate Diaz Ben Henderson FOX Card coming up
Maybe they will get BJ to step up and take the next Jones fight. There don't seem to be any 205lb. guys willing to step up.
Good decision. A lose/lose situation for Jones. He has nothing to gain from beating a MW fighter, while Vitor has the speed and power to ko Jones.
Vitor getting Hendo's shot AGAIN?! What is this, groundhog day?!
People underestimate Vitor's grappling and TDD. if he beats Jones then Jones should be forced to fight Glover Texiera and after Glover destroys him cut him from the ufc . We don't need any primadonnas. It's one of the reasons boxing is so corrupt. Or if Vitor gets injured then maybe bring in Gegard
I personally like this fight better than the rest!
Jones vs. Vitor will be an interesting one to watch. This is really a 'Super Fight' between these two. Even if under the circumstances, I'm glad these type of fights can materialize.
Jones may come in the favorite, but even without a proper training camp, it's still a fight and anything can happen. Vitor is still as dangerous as they come, and has the power and speed to connect in an instant and knockout Jones.
i bet jones is wishing that he took that fight against chael now, because vito is gonna bring it to him like no other opponent that he has faced.
this a much more dangerous fight for jones and i wouldn't be surprised if vito knocks him the fuck out…and quickly.
i think that jones and dana should have to pay all of the other fighters for ufc151 anyway, it's there fault that the show cot cancelled. i mean if jones a "brand" now i know he can afford it and dana is doing alright, i'm sure…so stand up and do the right thing and pay those poor fighters, guys.
Jones is a business man who's good at fighting. These other guys are straight up fighters who are good at fighting. In the end it could be real bad business for Jones not wanting any other fight. That would suck to lose that Nike deal along with a lot of fans. I can't believe Lyoto didn't take the fight. I really wanted to see that. But Vitor is a very interesting fight so we're in for a treat.
No one has stated why Jones turned down Sonnen either, or how it went down, did he get a call and that was a knee jerk reation, or did he get time to think about it? was it because he didn't think Sonnen deserved it? or did he just think the risk outweight the rewards? I personaly have no interest in watching Sonnen fight for a title, nor do i think he deserved it.
These arn't the brawlers of old, the UFC is as much to blame, They are always trying to make it bigger and better and more professional, the have turned it into big business and mainstreem, and then expect their fighters to treat it like a bar brawl and start swinging at the drop of a hat.
It's crazy how so many people can wish so much hate on one guy…This card sucked from the get go. UFC got caught with trying to push one through with no other significant fights…I like Ellenberger but UFC signed Jay Hieron like 2 weeks ago… I think this should be a lesson for the UFC to start having true Co-Main events that can always step up in case of emergencies….I think personally as fan Jones should have took the fight but he didnt. Everyone is so surprised but I am not. I think you have certain champions like Jones, GSP that are so worried about game plans and what Greg Jackson thinks they loose site of the fact if your the best in the world or think you are you should fight. I respecet Chael for stepping up but lets be honest I heard Hendo got hurt like 10 days ago same time he Chael started his twitter war… I think he was calculating this potentially happening and was more ready then people realize. I am not that excited about Jones vs Vitor but Vitor is tough just worry about his cardio and the reach is going to be as always a huge problem… I rambled on too much sorry.
As a huge Vitor Belfort fan, I hope he gets lucky and knocks Jon Jones out. That would be an early Christmas gift for me.
You already ruined your boys victory by saying "gets lucky" lol. This fight is all good though. Vitor is awesome. And no weight cut now, and I'm sure hes in shape. War Vitor!
Dan is too incompetent and unprofessional to stay healthy for his fight that is one week away…a number of LHW contenders back away from the offer to fight Bones…Machida turns down a fight with Bones with a month to prepare…the UFC brass makes UFC 151 so weak that all it takes is one man to pull out for it to crumble…and this is all Jonnie's fault bc he didnt take a fight with a non-deserving MW contender who lost his last fight in devastating fashion. Interesting indeed
To just copy and paste the same comment in every single article? I know you want people to notice you, but quality of comment is more important than quantity.
I am with you MikeMc1983. No matter how many times he cuts and pastes it- it still sounds idiotic!
Definitely lost a lot of respect for Jones on turning down the fight. As Dana said it himself, he has NEVER seen this happen, as I cannot recall this at all too, with me being a big UFC fan for 7 yrs now, and have watched all the UFC events, free and the PPV ones. There have been a lot of fight change that have happened throughout the years. And what I have loved about the UFC is that all those scheduled fighters accepted the change on short notice. Another reason I love the UFC and hate boxing, is because it is suppose to be filled with fighters and not prima donnas. I do fill sorry for the other fighters in the UFC 151 card who needed this for their livelihood. Also feel very bad for the fans that bought their tickets even though they will get refunded. But I am pretty sure there are a LOT of ticked out fans out there that will not get their plane tickets and hotel reservations that they made to see the event. Man, I sure hope Vitor knocks the crap out of Jones!!
Nobody wants to see Jones fight Belfort, I will not pay to see it nor will I even go to a bar to see this fight. UFC plugging in fighters like Jon Jones = total fail.
Joe and Dana are rushing things. Take some time and put on a proper title fight
vitor will get injured in training like he always does and will not fight jones.i cant understand why jones didnt fight sonnen cause dan and sonnen are very simular except dans right hand and chaels wrestling is better.lyto machida wanted a rematch so bad but refused to fight in a month.that makes no sense.jones was scared he would lose his belt and he probrally would.but belfort will never fight jones
"I will not let no one down."
so he'll disappoint everybody. HIGH FIVE!
Why all the hate towards Jones. He did nothing wrong. He is not the first fighter to turn down a fight. The UFC is to blame not Jones. Some of you people sound real stupid. Just looking for any reason to be negative.
All the rambling and whining you cyber punks do here is not gonna change anything. Most of you have never even been in a real fight much less trained MMA and don't know what it is to even step in the Octagon. The worst ones are the ones calling fighters p***ies. There is no such thing as a professional fighter that is a p***y, if it was easy all of us would be fighting instead of talking smack on a forum. Get a life, if you don't like whats going on, don't watch it. I did it with boxing, you could do the same.
i agree with the majority of fans.dana white should have striped him of his belt for refusing to fight….i will no longer pay for any fight jones is involved with…

When I was little, my parents were very good about remembering to put a little present under my pillow every time I lost a baby tooth. It was so fun to wake up and discover the surprise. Almost as fun, was finding these adorable Tooth Fairy Kits by Notion Farm. We just got them in at Urbanic!
features include: "One letterpress Certificate of Record for filing with the local tooth fairy, and one reusable silkscreened cloth deposit bag for your first and all subsequent transactions"

I am surrounded by beautiful things everyday which is a major part of my inspiration here at Parcel Post. Lately I have been realizing that without the beautiful people I am surrounded by in and around the store, all of this would feel empty.
I love our family here at Urbanic! Above are some photo booth pics that our girls Tess, Janean and Cristin took this week. Celia is missing in these shots as she was most likely preforming somewhere (she is a brilliant singer songwriter). Joshua and I literally searched high and low for our staff. It was worth the hundreds of interviews because we adore these ladies with all of our hearts!
We work very closely with our brides (and grooms) and genuinely build relationships with them in the course of the whole invitation process. When a bride leaves the store overjoyed after picking up her invites, I get a gigantic rush of happiness. In my work environment, there is nothing that compares to this feeling of accomplishment. This is what we strive for everyday! This week I received a thank you card from one of our wonderful brides and it meant the world to me. I know how crazy and busy it is in the midst having a wedding. Her taking the time to do this was so thoughtful.
When I first opened the store 3 years ago and got my business cards printed, I didn't love how the color brown came out and felt sick about it since I had printed 8,000 of them. It was my fault because I chose the pantone, and couldn't justify re-doing the whole job since the 200lb stock paper was so pricey. I am happy to say that I have learned a lot about printing since then and figured out how to mix a custom pantone color! This week we finally reprinted the cards and our printers comped me the job, remembering the agony I went through when I first opened. They are amazing!
Everytime I see a customer signing up on our mailing list, I feel honored and even flattered that they want us to keep them informed of our happenings. I was watching a memory clip of Michael Jackson last night on the news where he was sincerely telling his fans that he loved them. I feel this way about our customers.
The mail arrived as I was sitting here writing this post. I got a card from Erika at Delphine thanking me for the order I placed at the NSS. This reminded me to include the talented group of designers we work with. Everything in our store is hand picked from who we consider the nation's top designers. It is so nice to receive friendly notes with our orders, mid day emails, and a random visits from them every now and then! I really appreciate some of the friendships we have built.
I think the sadness of yesterday made me a little more in touch with my treasures today.
happy weekend,

It is always exciting to get a new candle line in at Urbanic! Linnea's lights was a real treat to discover. The hand stamped packaging is to die for and how cute is it that it comes with a handy little box of matches?! Some of our favorite signature scents are, cashmere, currant rouge, yuzu, sweet grass and bamboo.

I Have been having a hard time getting back to work this week. This past Saturday, Joshua and I celebrated our 10 year wedding anniversary and had a little stay-cation at one of our favorite hotels right down the street. These 10 years have gone by really fast. Its even shocking for us to tell people.
I feel so lucky to be married to my best friend.

Dishwashing 101: Do's and Don'ts
I have mentioned previously that we recently became a dishwasher free household. What I didn't mention was that after a year with a dishwasher we had forgotten all the basics of washing dishes by hand. This last month has been a crash course in dishwashing 101. Here's what we re-learned.
Get rid of left over food straight away.
Separate and sort the dishes.
Leave space between items in the drainer.
Clean your dish cloths regularly.
Use really hot water.
Try some soap in a spray bottle.
Clean your sink after you've washed up.
Use homemade or grey water safe detergent.
Put food scraps is your water.
Overload the sink.
Over fill the sink.
Leave knifes in the sink or drainer.
Leave wet cloths or sponges in or around the sink.
Leave water around the sink.
I would love to hear your dishwashing tips!

Squeeze your dishwashing sponge dry when done. Microwave for 30 secs when it gets funky.
Try to wash your dishes in size order so your larger pots and dishes are at the bottom of your sink, so you have a "cascade" of soapy water that saves soap and water.
Wash glasses first.
My sister in-law is nurse and was taught in school that it is more sanitary to let your dishes air dry then to towel dry.
If you need to lay your cutlery down to dry make sure the spoons are facing down so that they don't pool any water and you don't get dried on water spots.
Let air dry instead of towel drying ... except cast iron.
Instead of using gloves, use your bare hands to feel each item to make sure it's clean of specks and grease. I learned this from my mom, who is blind, and I didn't know it was "different" until I moved out and all my roommates left specks of food and/or grease on our dishes.
Always wash the glasses first, and lay them to dry on a towel on the counter. Then lay all the silverware (except knives) on the bottom of the (plugged, filled) sink, then the plates and bowls on top, submerging as much as possible. Go take 5 and let them soak, then wash the plates & bowls, then the silverware. Put any pots and pans in the sink. Take 10. Come back and wash and dry the pots and pans.
"Try some soap in a spray bottle."
Oh, that's brilliant!
I keep a sugar shaker full of baking soda (filled when the boxes in the fridge and freezer are replaced) next to the sink. A shake or two helps clean the dishes better than soap alone.
Rinsing the soapy dishes with running water feels wasteful to me. Instead, I have one side of my sink filled (not actually filled, maybe two to three inches of water) with vinegar water. I swipe over the dish with my fingers removing the majority of the suds then dip the dish in the vinegar water. It cuts through and removes any soap on the dish and helps it dry streak and spot free. It also helps the skin and nails; the soap and baking soda are very drying.
wonderful post...and yes agree with all of the above
so what do you do with your wet dishcloth once done washing? I've just made the switch from sponges to dishcloths, because I've read they're less germy and more reusable, and I currently hang mine to dry on a suction cup hook that I put on the sink backsplash. Is this a no-no?
@e53: I use a dish brush. I don't see the difference between a sponge and a dishcloth.
Soak everything in water first.
@e53: I agree with Sam I Am only if you never wash your dishcloths. We use one dishcloth for the day, hang it on a bar inside the cabinet under the sink between meals, and wash all of them with the regular laundry. The biggest difference between a sponge and a cloth is that the sponge can't go in the wash.
It's funny, because I don't see the difference between a scrub brush and a sponge - since neither of those can go in the laundry.
I'm still amazed at how many people see a dishwasher as a necessity when they rent, buy or build a place, too me it's a total luxury item. There was a post on AT a little bit ago with the model 300sq foot apartment and some people complained about the lack of a dishwasher. I was surprised because with 300 sq ft, 1 to 2 occupants, I was thinking there's other more important things to think about.
Don't let dishes sit, rinse off food right after done eating, wash shortly thereafter.
Change sponge out frequently.
I wash flat items first, plates, then glasses, then pots & pans.
Yes...don't leave knives and scissors in the dish drainer, they'll rust.
Having a small dish drainer keeps me from letting dishes sit, I even wash here and there, while I'm cooking.
It's funny, because I don't see the difference between a scrub brush and a sponge - since neither of those can go in the laundry."
Brushes aren't porous; as long as there's no food caught in the bristles they aren't going to harbor bacteria. They're also much easier to clean and much quicker to dry.
Do...ask your hosts their system, if you are kind enough to volunteer to do dishes. As a host, I prefer that my guests not do dishes, partly so they can enjoy themselves, and partly so that I can use my system. One of my peeves is when people use my countertop sponge to wash the dishes.
I've had problems with scrub brushes developing mildew when they are not air-dried properly. I store them upright in a jar near my sink.
My Mom taught me, and I always do this, to wash from cleanest to dirtiest. So usually glasses first, then plates or silverware, then pots and pans. That way, you're not washing your not so dirty glasses in greasy pots and pan water.
Believe it or not, we were actually taught how to rinse dishes in school. :) Rinse off all the oil and leftover food before washing. You can do this either by wiping it off with brown paper or newspaper; or take a small amount of warm water and rinse the plates and utensils. Wash the glasses first because it's the one that's least greasy. Follow with the utensils, then the plates.
I usually rinse one part before I soap the next. So rinse the glasses, then soap & rinse the utensils, then the plates.
We Dutch are famous for our dish washing habits, so it seems (read the unduchables).
Anyway, there are some good tips:
- use a dish brush. It has a little more power to it than a cloth/sponge and is less of an bacteria empire after a while. Ikea sells cheap ones. (we replace every month and use the old one for other cleaning jobs like the tub)
- use a dish washing bucket (bucket that is big, but not deep). Strangely enough I can only find these in the dollar store here in the States and not at an Ace or so where you would expect them, but there great help since you can clean dished in the soapy water in the bucket, and still rinse dishes next to the bucket (we place it in the sink).
- so we only use limited water. Start with the cleanest (glasses) then end with pots and pans.
- we do: clean water in bucket with little detergent, then wash all glasses, all plates. Then new water, then utensils and pots and pans. Air dry and rinse when needed.
YB: Interesting post. My Dutch friend stayed with me and when she washed the dishes I always had to rewash them because they were still dirty. ;)
"Leave knifes in the sink or drainer."
Knife = singular
Knives = plural
Note to self: "Proofread copy before posting."
My biggest pet peeves I can't get others to not do:
>Leave wet cloths or sponges in or around the sink.
>Leave water around the sink.
@Nancy_s- LOL! I saw a couple of typos but said nothing because I know how annoying it is when people like to jump all over a typo, but have nothing of actual substance to add to the discussion! Then YOU had to go & point your own out! LOL! Anyway, good post.
I agree with everyone here about rinsing or wiping first, washing cleanest first, air dry.... I'd also like to add that if it is possible where you live then try to pour all dishwashing grey water out into garden. I live in New Mexico- famous for low rainfall & rivers that have been dry beds for decades. Every drop of water needs to be conserved! All water from washing & rinsing dishes goes out back into garden. Yes, it's a little extra effort, but better in long run. At least we don't have to "fetch" the water from the pump or the well anymore, so carrying a bucket of soapy water to dump outside doesn't seem so difficult & it benefits the earth! (Also, depending where you live this method greatly saves on water & sewage bills. I've even done this in places where my water was included in my rent. Landlords noticed that the water bills were greatly lower than when previous tenants lived there & when I demonstrated my many water conservation methods I've been rewarded with a decrease in rent!) Rinse water can be used to soak clothes that are stained, can be used to wash other things like the counter tops & floors...
Another thing I'd like to point out (no pun intended) is that when placing knives in dish rack the tips should always face down. I have a huge scar on my wrist from reaching into a friend's dish rack years ago & slicing my wrist open on a knife pointing upwards. To this day she now puts the knives points down! Having to go home & rewash her bloody dishes after rushing me to the hospital for stitches was a wake up call!
I don't use a sponge or a towel for washing. I use nylon scrubbies made from the mesh bags that fruit come in. In some situations I will use old washcloths (after marking them with an X using a sharpie marker so they don't get confused with the good washcloths) then I just toss in wash with regular towels.
Good post!
This is a funny post. I was raised "pre-dishwasher", and this is what my Victorian family said:
1. Wash glassware and crystal first in a pan lined with a dishtowel - well now use a plastic pan.
2. Wash flatware secondly in that water.
3. Do the pre-scraped china next.
I've found that if the dishwater is clean and hot enough at all you can do the pots and pans in it. I usually drain and refill the dish pan several times when hand washing. And yes, I hand wash ALL my antique china, silver and glasswear. I NEVER wash my dishes with rubber gloves. I will not allow anybody to help me wash my dishes either. They usually want to use rubber gloves, and everyone I know who uses rubber gloves has chipped china and glassware. Some of mine is over a hundred years old, and I cherish it and enjoy the exprience of washing it all by hand. I don't even want granite or tile counters in my kitchen. The temperature shock and constant banging wears away at the "good" stuff. Wood or Corian are my preferences in counters.
Yes, I have a dishwasher and I use it regularly for my "modern" dishes that have glazes on top of the painted or decaled patterns.
Re sterling or silver plate - it can be washed in the dish washer, but be sure there is no other metal type in the dishwasher. Electrolysis will be established with other metals - especially if they are touching; but I wash my sterling in the diswasher only if I keep all other metals out. Drying silver well with a cotton towel is key to keeping it from tarnishing - although if you have an open flame gas heater, the sulfur from the gas is a nasty oxident. I remember hand drying my mothers "good" silverplate and making sure it was dried for a few hours before putting it back in the silver chest. Moisture and sulfur are deadly to silver.
Salt is your friend. I always keep a container next to the sink because of all that I can do with it...
*Lemon Juice and Salt will spruce up copper-bottom pots.
*Salt is an excellent and gentle scrub-assist...especially for cast-iron.
*50/50 salt and vinegar is a good soaker for removing stains in china and tea pots.
*Also, soak enamel cookware overnight in water plus a handful of salt, boil it for 15-20 min. the next day, then wash to remove enamel stains.
*Plus it exfoliates the skin.
I don't know how I'd clean without it.
dont stack them as my mother does, which makes getting anything out of the pile like a seriously grown up version of pick up sticks...
@ Sarah W.- yes! vinegar, salt, and I also use baking soda! I love the bubbly action of vinegar & baking soda together fizzing off the grease! And I will freshen up the drain with the soda & vinegar once a week.
If you are far-sighted, WEAR YOUR GLASSES while washing up.
My mother, who is famous in our circles for keeping a spotless home, has been having trouble with this area lately. Whenever she come to my house and washes up for me, I always have to rewash the dishes once she leaved because there are dirty. But I love that she tries!
RINSE (and rinse well!) everything after washing! It's disgusting if you don't.
I'm living in a country where no one rinses after washing: poor poor me!
Here are some of my tips, many of which have already been posted, but let's review.
1. Wash with bare hands and feel dishes to make sure you get all the grease and stuck-on bits, which can be very small and nearly invisible, especially when wet.
2. Wash from cleanest to dirtiest. My grandma always said to wash the dishes that touch your mouth first (cups and silverware), then the dishes that you eat off of, then the dishes that you cook in. I always wash glass first.
3. Either have a rinse tub or rinse last. We keep our dish drainer in our second sink (we use the counter to dry glasses on a towel), so I stack soapy dishes by type and size and rinse everything at the end. This also makes me do more dishes than can fit in the strainer normally, so I not only wash more dishes per time, but I stack the strainer very efficiently.
4. If your water looks or feels really dirty, it probably is. Feel free to dump and start with fresh.
5. Start off with less water in the dish pan so you can add more hot water as the water cools.
6. Don't use too much soap - it takes more water to rinse off!
Yay. I am happy to see so many other great dish-washing tips. We don't have a dishwasher in our house (boo...), but since there are just two of us, I think that means that we use our water much more efficiently.

Hi, I'm Sammy. I'm endlessly curious, and I'm trying to figure out who I am. If you laugh at my jokes, I'll love you forever. My obsessions include: Orphan Black, Game of Thrones, Orange is the New Black, Brittana, The Walking Dead, Pretty Little Liars, The Hunger Games, Divergent, Harry Potter shitty reality television, comic books, my ukuleles, Twitter, and reading. Katniss Everdeen is my hero. I become too emotionally invested in television shows and movies and the characters in them. I blog about my life a fair amount and I'm clearly shit at keeping things brief.

Create True Intimacy in Your Marriage
- Wednesday, October 12, 2005
In a world full of troubled marriages, people often settle for a marriage where they simply get along. But God intends for marriage to be so much more. And with His help, you and your spouse can achieve the real intimacy He wants husbands and wives to enjoy.
Here's how you can create real intimacy in your marriage:
Know why you need to leave your past. Understand that if you drag baggage from the past into your marriage, it will sap the energy and life out of your relationship with your spouse. View your old loyalties (to your parents and other strong influences in your life) as secondary to the new bond you need to develop with your spouse for a strong marriage.
Know why you need to weave. Understand that if you have contempt for the differences between you and your spouse, you'll block the blessings God wants each of you to experience from learning how to work together. Realize that your differences can complement each other. Remember that God wants to weave the different colored threads of your lives together to create a beautiful tapestry.
Know why you need to cleave. Understand that if you don't intentionally pursue the goal of growing closer to God alongside your spouse, your marriage will stagnate. Remember that your relationship is a living organism that requires regular investments of time and energy to grow.
Consider the meaning of marriage. Recognize just how important marriage is in the world. Think about marriage as trinity (it reveals God's relational nature and His love for creation), ethics (it helps you learn how to be good to each other as God is good to you), eschatology (it's a foretaste of what it will be like to be in an intimate relationship with God in heaven forever), revelation (it's meant to be a relationship that shows the world God's glory and goodness as He acts in your lives).
Leave your past loyalties. Realize that trust can never fully be established in your marriage unless you sever the bonds of loyalty that controlled or influenced you strongly in the past (your relationship with your parents, other family members, friends, jobs, past boyfriends or girlfriends, etc.). Understand that by no means does this call for breaking off these relationships, but simply setting boundaries designed to protect young trust that is beginning to take root between you and your spouse. Make space for faithfulness. Give yourselves the space you need to build trust without undue intrusions or complications.
Know that marriage should change all aspects of both your lives as you merge them together to create something new. Understand that anything that might compromise the opening of your hearts to each other must be left behind as you pursue intimacy together.
Realize that building trust is a gradual process -- that trust is earned over a lifetime through small moments of faithfulness. Respect your spouse's privacy by refusing to reveal matters that might cause embarrassment or shame for him or her. Show your spouse that you have the integrity to keep confidences. Keep secrets only between each other; never allow secrets between one of you and someone else.
Establish the primacy of your marriage over relationships with all other people -- forsaking all others for the sake of your spouse. Don't give into efforts to divide you and your spouse. Make it clear to others that the power to make decisions is in you and your spouse's hands, working together. Invite your parents and other people to offer their wisdom, but don't feel obligated to obey their desires.
Share the full details of your pasts with each other so you know your spouse's story, and he or she knows yours. Then intentionally merge your lives together to pursue a better present and future together.
