What really puts my teeth on edge is that Harvick's and Johnson's pit crews were good enough to get them in position to win the championship. Harvick's constant berating of his pit crews is well documented. I'll bet you the swapping of crews po'd the crew that got him to the dance. Look how well Bowyer has been running. And Johnson's scaveging of Gordon's pit crew was disgusting as it was right in the middle of the race. That's humiliation personified. I'm rooting for Hamlin even though I'm not a toyota fan. It's the principal of the whole thing

Teammates could play deciding role in Chase finale…for better or worse
By admin | November 17, 2010
By Richard Allen
NASCAR racing has never been quite as team oriented as Formula 1 where one teammate may be asked to pull over and allow another teammate to win a race. However, teammates do indeed play a role in stock car racing.
In NASCAR team assistance can be as subtle as allowing a fellow driver to squeeze back into the draft at Talladega or as obvious as slowing down to let a teammate lead a lap for the bonus points. So, with one of the closest championship battles in history coming down to the wire in this weekend's race in Homestead, what role might teammates play in determining the 2010 champion?
Don't be surprised if one of the Joe Gibbs Racing drivers allows Denny Hamlin to lead a lap in the early stages of the Ford 400 or if one of the Hendrick Motorsports drivers does not contest Jimmie Johnson too much if Johnson's car is not handling very well in the middle section of the event.
But in an odd way, the three drivers who are contesting the Sprint Cup championship may have less help from teammates than one might expect in such a trying situation.
Earlier this year, Johnson and fellow HMS driver Jeff Gordon had a well publicized spat in which Gordon openly suggested that Johnson wanted special favors from his mates on the track but did not necessarily want to return said favors. There were even a couple of bumps and scrapes exchanged between the two four-time champions during a couple of races.
And keep in mind that Gordon's car will be pitted by the same crew benched during the recent Texas race by Johnson crew chief Chad Knaus. Think there might be some motivation of the former #48 guys to prove they were wrongly cast aside?
During this year's Sprint All Star Race, Kyle Busch was so upset with Hamlin that he went into the #11 team's hauler so that the two could "discuss†the matter of an on track dust up.
Kevin Harvick has also had his share of disagreements with both of his Richard Childress Racing teammates. He has had on track tussles with Jeff Burton and Clint Bowyer over the course of their time together as partners. And like Johnson, Harvick exchanged pit crews in the midst of the Chase when his crew was sent to the #33 team and that crew was sent to him. Again, think there might be some extra motivation there?
This is not to say that any driver will intentionally sabotage the championship efforts of his teammates. However, could it be that one of these teammates might not help as much as he could?
Having teammates could be beneficial to Hamlin, Johnson and Harvick this Sunday in south Florida but it could also work in the other direction. A position given here or taken there, a case of boxing someone else in on pit road or not, or a case of racing another driver harder than would normally be the case in the early stages of the race could make the difference in a teammate gaining or losing an extra position. And one position could make all the difference.
So, how cooperative are these teammates going to be in the 2010 season finale?
The family motto of the Corleone family of 'The Godfather' movies was, "Keep your friends close and your enemies closer.†On Sunday in Homestead, it may be difficult knowing which is which for the three title Chasers.

Too bad Bill Davis and the special fuel that Waltrip racing was using is not in the final race, oh they are I forgot Davis was involved with Toyota even though Dodge was suppling the money and Waltrip (OJ Simpson) never found the person who put the special fuel in.

A 29-year-old Greendale man is facing charges for crashing his Lexus SUV into a Greendale home last April.
Jeffrey Mellock was charged in Milwaukee County Circuit Court Wednesday with one count of second offense operating while intoxicated and one count of operating a vehicle with a restricted controlled substance in his blood. If convicted, he could face up to one year in prison and $2,200 in fines.
According to the criminal complaint:
At 10:33 p.m. on April 20, 2011, Mellock drove his SUV into a home in the 6500 block of Parkview Road. Mellock then went to his home and parked the car in the garage. When police arrived, he was sweating heavily and had labored breathing, and they observed that the car had sustained heavy frontal damage.
Mellock then failed field sobriety tests and was suspected of being intoxicated. A blood test later revealed THC in his blood stream, which is the active ingredient in marijuana.
Mellock was previously convicted of OWI in 2005. He's scheduled to make his initial appearance in court Feb. 20.

If i'm extra comfortable with you I'll do all that and:
- talk casually about porn and really perverted thoughts

- actually tell you when i'm upset
- try to make conversation with you
- just generally act really silly when I'm in a good mood
- tell you jokes even if they're bad
- there are smart people who believe in a higher power
- there are smart people who don't believe in anything
- there are idiots who believe in a higher power
- there are idiots who don't believe in anything
- a person's level of intelligence is not dictated by their view on religion

October 16 2013| Filed Under » Fundamental Analysis, Solvency Ratio
Solvency ratios are primarily used to measure a company's ability to meet its long-term obligations. In general, a solvency ratio measures the size of a company's profitability and compares it to its obligations. By interpreting a solvency ratio, an analyst or investor can gain insight into how likely a company will be to continue meeting its debt obligations. A stronger or higher ratio indicates financial strength. In stark contrast, a lower ratio, or one on the weak side, could indicate financial struggles in the future. Read the rest of this entry »

In rather significant fashion, the U.S. Bureau of Economic Analysis recently announced a change to the way it estimates gross domestic product (GDP). The change reflects the inclusion of research and development (R&D) as an investment or asset in the economy. The term amortization is an important concept to intangible assets (such as R&D or a trademark) and reflects the fact that intangible assets have value that must be monitored and adjusted for over time. Amortization helps take care of this, and we explain it in more detail below. Read the rest of this entry »

Most investors avoid trying to value financial firms due to their complicated nature.

The main purpose of equity valuation is to estimate a value for a firm or security. A key assumption of any fundamental value technique is that the value of the security (in this case an equity or a stock) is driven by the fundamentals of the firm's underlying business at the end of the day. There are three primary equity valuation models: the discounted cash flow (DCF), cost and comparable approaches. The comparable model is a relative valuation approach and is explained in more detail below. Read the rest of this entry »

Through an Initial Public Offering, or IPO, a company raises capital by issuing shares of stock, or equity in a public market. Generally, this refers to when a company issues stock for the first time. But as we will see below, there are ways a company can go public more than once. The IPO process is the locomotive of capitalism. This is because throughout history, the IPO has let the investing public own a small share in many companies that have grown large and hugely successful since they first went public.

On the face of it, figuring out how a bank makes money is a pretty straightforward affair. A bank earns a spread on the money it lends out from the money it takes in as a deposit. The net interest margin (NIM), which most banks report quarterly, represents this spread, which is simply the difference between what it earns on loans versus what it pays out as interest on deposits. This, of course, gets much more complicated given the dizzying array of credit products and interest rates used to determine the rate eventually charged for loans. Below is an overview of how a bank determines the interest rate for consumers and business loans. Read the rest of this entry »

Back in 2008, Warren Buffett made a bet with Protégé Partners, a fund of funds hedge fund manager, that the S&P500 would beat a group of hedge fund managers selected by Protégé. The bet officially started on January 1, 2008, and runs for a decade, ending on December 31, 2017. The performance is being measured by netting out fees, costs and expenses that go into running the hedge funds. Buffett made the bet to prove his contention that hedge funds underperform due to the fact that "costs skyrocket when large annual fees, large performance fees and active trading costs are all added to the active investor's equation."

An academic study, published several years after the peak of the dot-com bubble in March 2000, accurately described just how whacky internet valuations grew until the bubble burst. The study's first sentence basically stated that valuations lost touch with reality. During the internet frenzy, there was mention of "new economy" stock references to new valuation zones that should be considered reasonable. At the time, valuation metrics included measures such as customers per click, measuring "eyeballs" or time spent visiting a website.

The father of value investing, Benjamin Graham once wrote that making money on investing should depend "on the amount of intelligent effort the investor is willing and able to bring to bear on his task" of security analysis. He defined the intelligent investor as an enterprising individual that has the time and energy to do his or her own investment research. In contrast to the intelligent investor is the defensive investor who would prefer to have another individual pick stocks, bonds and other financial assets on his or her behalf. Hiring a financial advisor is certainly one alternative, but most retail investors (and also many institutions) prefer to hire a manager through the purchase of amutual fund. Below is an overview of when it might be a good time to invest through the purchase of mutual funds.

To get ahead as a financial analyst, you must become very skilled at using past information to make a reasonably accurate prediction of the future. When it comes to analyzing a company, successful analysts spend considerable time trying to differentiate between accounting items that are likely to recur going forward from those that most likely will not. A key part of this analysis is to understand items that qualify as extraordinary items or nonrecurring items. A savvy analyst will separate these items from recurring ones, and will stand a much better chance at predicting the future than one who simply looks at the bottom-line earnings companies must report in their financial statements.

Many financial services firms try to help investors by sharing their opinions on a mutual fund. In a nutshell, they do a decent job of accurately rating a fund based on its past performance. The downside to this method is it isn't a good guide to future performance. But can using other information really make better predictions on future fund performance? At the end of the day, there is some value to the approach that fund raters take to rating mutual funds. Investors should use this data as a starting point and combine it with some factors noted below for a more holistic approach to weeding out fund losers from the winners. Read the rest of this entry »

44G-cupper Cassie Blanca is back at XLGirls and the blonde bomber's ready to be dicked, licked, reamed and creamed in a fresh pictorial and video. Cassie is relatively new at hot and horny modeling, compared to XLGirls like, say, Samantha or Sapphire. But she is a damn fast learner. The fact is, Cassie downplayed her superjumbos for a long time. "I always wore big sweaters," Cassie informed your friendly editorial staff. "The biggest cup size I'd ever find in a store was a DD so I had been wearing that for years. Then recently I went to get measured and they were like, 'Are you crazy?' And my bra size turned out to be a G. I was more of the nice girl who would do their homework. I was scared to express myself or experiment. Now if anyone suggests anything I'm willing to try it. Worst case scenario, you like it." After sampling a variety of fuck partners on camera, Cassie's sex drive is probably a lot higher than it used to be. "I do know what I want and that's why I'm here. It's a stretch for me to come from Arizona. So for me to do this, it's because I really want to." Enjoy the pictures! Enjoy the video!

In fact, you should get rid of any medicines that are even slightly past their
expiration date. Nearly all drugs lose potency over time, so the longer you keep
them on the shelf, the less effective they are likely to be.
Even if some old medicine is still as strong as when you got it—and how would
you know?—you shouldn't take it, because it might not be what you need now. Even if it is, you're probably going to need more than the three or four pills that are left in the bottle. So discard them and go back to your doctor.
"You should go through your medicine cabinet at least once a year and throw
away anything that's out of date or only partially used," says Jason Joyce, Pharm.
D., Pharmacy director at FirstHealth Richmond Memorial Hospital. "There's
no point in keeping out-of-date drugs, and they're a hazard. You could get them
mixed up with newer drugs you're supposed to be using."
If your doctor prescribes a drug and it doesn't work very well, it might be that
you need something else. But pharmacists say that it's just as likely that you aren't
taking the drug the way you should.
"There are a few basic things that everyone should know about their medication,"
Joyce says. "You should understand what it's for, what the most common
side effects are, how often you should take it and at what time of day, whether
to take it with food or not, and whether to take it with other medications. The
more patients know, the more likely they are to be compliant with how they are
supposed to take it."
John Walker, R.Ph., Pharmacy director at FirstHealth Montgomery Memorial
Hospital, says people should not hesitate to ask their doctor or pharmacist if there
is anything they aren't sure about. For example, you might want to ask if it's all
right to take a particular over-the-counter (OTC) drug, even something as common
as a headache remedy, while you're taking a prescription drug.
"If the OTC drug has some of the same ingredients as your prescription
medication, such as acetaminophen, then you may be at risk of an overdose,"
Walker says. "So, if you aren't sure exactly what's in both drugs, check with your
It can be tempting to stop taking a drug once your symptoms are gone, but
that is rarely a good idea, especially with antibiotics.
"You need to complete the full course of antibiotics, even if you feel fine, to
completely eradicate the infection," says Benny Morse, Pharm.D., a pharmacist
at Richmond Memorial.
Patients are sometimes less diligent about taking their medicines for diabetes
and high blood pressure, because these diseases may not cause any symptoms.
But if they aren't properly controlled, they can lead to serious, life-threatening
"It is extremely important to follow your doctor's instructions and take the
medication that he or she prescribes," Joyce says.
Joyce advises talking with your doctor if you are having trouble taking your
medicine as prescribed.
"If the medicine is causing a side effect or if it's expensive and you can't
afford it, your physician might be able to switch you to something else," he
says. "Whatever the concern is, you really should be communicating with your
Lisa Cutrell, Pharm.D., a pharmacist at Richmond Memorial, says patients
need to understand that it takes more than medicine to control some diseases.
"If you have high blood pressure or diabetes, for example, pills can help control
it, but it also takes diet and exercise and maybe other lifestyle changes," she
says. "You can't just rely on the drugs."
The first rule of drug safety is to
store all medicines—prescription and
over-the-counter—where children and pets
can't reach them. And when you discard
then, don't just flush them down the toilet
or toss them into the nearest wastebasket. Contact your
pharmacy. Many pharmacies have drug recycling programs
and will take back your expired medications and see that
they are properly disposed. If your pharmacy won't take
back your expired drugs, ask your pharmacist about what to
do with them.
Drugs should be stored at room temperature, unless
the label says otherwise.
"Heat causes a lot of drugs to deteriorate faster, so never
keep them in places that can get very hot, like the glove
compartment of your car," says John Walker, R.Ph., Pharmacy
director at FirstHealth Montgomery Memorial Hospital.
If you keep your medicine bottles in a bathroom medicine
cabinet, be sure the lids are tightly closed. Otherwise, the
steam from the shower might affect the drugs' potency.
People who take a number of different drugs sometimes
have trouble keeping up with which ones to take when. Pill
organizers, which most drug stores sell, can help. Otherwise,
you should keep all your medicines in their original containers.
"If you put them in another bottle, it's easy to get them
confused with something else," Walker says. "That can be
dangerous if you're supposed to take one pill a day and the
label on the bottle says to take them three times a day."
Pharmacists strongly recommend making a list of all
your medicines, updating the list whenever there is a
change, and keeping it with you at all times.
"If you have to come to the hospital, the doctors will
need to know all the medicines you are taking because
that can help them diagnose your problem and decide
how to treat you," Walker says. "One of your medicines
might even be causing the problem."
Jason Joyce, Pharm.D., Pharmacy director at FirstHealth
Richmond Memorial Hospital, says it is a good idea to show
the list of medicines you are taking to every doctor you visit.
"A physician you're seeing for one problem may
not be aware that you're going to another physician
for something else," he says. "If they don't know what
each other is prescribing, it can result in duplications in
therapy or drugs that interact with each other in a harmful

Emotional (Remix) Lyrics
This is how I feel everytime I round you.
I just lose control when I'm in the same room I get so
I'm so emotional, emotional, emotional
Hey, I never should have let you go.
Shawty walked out the door and it ain't never the same.
I don't walk my talk, alot of stress you know, at times that's when I walk down memory lane.
I don't't take pain well, it was accident.
I broke deep breath lung collapsed again.
If I'd a known wat it was to be lonesome enough, I feel like shorty got my tongue wrestlin' with myself.
This can't be happening to my health.
I wanna' turn back again, she done left.
And now I'm alone, pretty much I lost the keys to my home,
Nobody told me that she would be gone.I wasn't prepared for this, tell me I'm wrong.
So many emotions, I'm losing my focus, n steady I'm hopeless, I want you to know this.
[Verse 1:]
Damn, somebody tell me why the first girl I see when I walk up in the club is her (her).
Jiggy had told me that you was gone make sure I wasn't gone see this girl.
No not tonight, I wanted to give it time, I wanted her off my mind but now it's too late to leave, damn.
I wonder who that is she talkin' to.
Put his drink down now he's makin' a move.
I wonder where they're movin' to.
N just like a fool I'm watchin' her (her)
Brought up in my eye a tear (tear)
But I can't stop watchin, I'm watching
See I can't stop watchin, I'm wathcin
Now the only thing I feel inside of my chest
Is all this regret I never should of let you go, but I let you go.
The situations under my skin, there's a war goin' on with this
This is how I feel everytime I'm around you.
I just lose control when I'm in the same room I get so
I'm so emotional, emotional, emotional
[Verse 2:]
So what do you think?
Should I roll up like I do it on dubs?
Show her wat it is make her miss my love?
Yea, reminisce on us.
Look at me stressin', so caught up
Learnin' my lesson, I realize now it lookin' like it's too late.
Did he jus wrap his hands around that slim waist, my waist?
Please don't tell me she's dancing the same way she danced with me?
Man that could never be, that's what she said to me.
And that's why it's so hard to believe...
[Verse 3:]
Hey girl, I didn't see you standing there.
It's been a long time, it's really really good to see you smile.
Every once in awhile, thinkin' of you and me.
Life is good, I'm free, yea but wait
Baby I'm frontin', honestly I made a big mistake
I'm strugglin' with reality, it hurts more everyday.
I've been blaming you for makin' me feel this way
and now I'm crushed without your love
Hey, what I wouldn't do to get my shawty back.
I never been abused til she hit it like that.
Got away from the dude now my train's off track.
My mind's all confused now I can't relax.
I made a big mistake, let shorty get away.n everyday I gotta pay, I got her pictures in my face,
Like I wanted a boot camp with the tears on my face.
Now I think I'm a fool, I let a jewel get away.
Precious straight stressin', now it's late, I wanna know who she sexin'.
That'll take to just to keep me from stressin'.
Better days see my life reflecting
I don't wish this on my rest it on me.
Torture should stop at a certain degree
Now we apart I just can't be at peace
Like I'm in all n my power to leave, yea

The first frame I ever shot using a Leica back in the summer of 2006.

Click either image for gallery of Dwight's Nissan Xterra
Fact: A new episode of The Office aired last night in which Andy sells his Nissan Xterra to Dwight, who then puts it up for sale on eBay Motors.
Fact: the guy who owns the Xterra in real life works for the show and has put it up for sale on eBay Motors along with a script signed by the cast and props used during filming.
Question: how much is owning Dwight Schrute's Xterra worth to you?
The current bid is $15,300 (Kelley Blue Book says one in excellent condition is worth only $9,715) and no, your money will not go to an obscure charity. It will help this guy trade his SUV for a hybrid. That's so Hollywood. Thanks for the tip, Bojac!

TEAMS: Orlando Magic, Chicago Bulls
Beno Udrih and Nate Robinson were trading body blows as the Magic and Bulls played Friday night. There was no knockout punch to deliver. Just a major whiff from the Magic and Udrih. Orlando had the final possession, down by a point and got the ball to the guy they wanted. That would be the veteran point guard from Slovenia who scored 18 of his 27 points in the third quarter, willing the Magic back from a deficit and hitting everything within his sights. Jimmy Butler's length and athelticism helped close that spout in the fourth quarter, but Udrih had one more chance to create. He got the inbound and ran a pick and roll with Nikola Vucevic and dribbled left toward the paint. He spun into traffic and lost his footing. It is arguable whether he was fouled. Udrih tried to throw up a shot to get the call -- no whistle -- and the Bulls collected the rebound. Chicago was able to run out the clock as Orlando tried fruitlessly to foul, and a tired Chicago team held on for an ...

I'm seriously just so pissed off at this fandom to the point of where I would leave just because of it.
You tear down harry CONSTANTLY, its not like this happens every once in a great while. He is 18. He is a teenager. I'm a year younger than him so I feel I would understand that being in the spot light all the time at this age would create a bunch of anxiety on a teenager. Don't you guys ever think to give him a fucking break?
Honestly, half of you are fucking ridiculous and always try to find something about him to complain about. You are going to break that boy if you don't shut the fuck up and let him live his life. I just want to sit with him and let him spill his guts and hug him cause lord knows he would have a lot to say.
He has already said he finds himself a bit disappointing naked, oh so let's make him feel worse and pick out every flaw?? I'm sure most of us naked aren't perfect. Harry doesn't need or have to be perfect. He is a teenager with regular teenage flaws.
All I know is, harry searches his hate and I don't want to have him upset over stupid people saying stupid things about his appearence. His flaws make him 100 times more beautiful and if you can't see that then shut your mouth and leave.

Weekend Projects: Seven Tips for Managing Your CSA
Now that summer is in full swing, our CSAs are finally starting to fill out with more than just kale and arugula.
Not that we're complaining, but it's actually getting hard to keep up with all the produce! Our fridge is filled to capacity and we can see that it will soon become challenging to keep meals interesting when we're having zucchini for the fourth night in a row.
Here are a few tips we've come up with for keeping our CSA manageable and--most importantly--fun!
Seven Tips for Managing Your CSA
1. Deal with everything right away. We pick up our CSA on Saturday afternoons, which means we have no excuse not to aside some time over the weekend to sort, cook, and organize. If you pick yours up during the week, it's a good strategy to plan on an hour or two that evening and make it part of your routine.
2. Make a list of what you have. It's easy to shove your bundle of five radishes into the back of a drawer and forget about it until things get smelly. We like to keep this list posted right on the fridge so we see what's in there and cross things off as we use them.
3. Take a seat and plan out your meals. Meal planning for the week is a good strategy anyway, but it's even more handy when you're trying to use up your CSA and avoid making the same stir-fry night after night.
4. Organize your fridge. Group together the foods that go together: greens in one place, salad fixings in another--whatever works for you. We cut off the tops of beets and put the bulbs in a separate space from the leaves. We also like to trim and discard or compost any parts of the vegetable that we know we won't be using, like the tops of leaks (unless we're making stock!).
5. Wilt down greens right away. Since the leafy greens take up the most space and usually get wilted down anyway, why not wilt them down to begin with? An armful of chard wilts down to about a cup, which can then be stored in a container and added to dishes as needed.
6. Save what you can. Often we'll get very small amounts of something--a pint of blueberries or a handful of ramps--that aren't quite enough for a whole recipe. Since you're likely to get another pint the next week, try to determine if your first batch will keep that long and then combine them.
7. Freeze what you can. If all else fails and food is backing up, turn to your freezer. Berries freeze very well, as do many vegetables like beans and corn. If you have time, we recommend blanching vegetables until barely al dente before freezing them. This helps preserve the color and decrease cooking time on the other end.
Granted, this is a pretty Type A list! But we've found that being organized actually frees us up to be creative in our cooking and enjoy our produce each week.
We're curious what other strategies you've come up with for making sure your CSA doesn't go to waste?

These are great tips, I never thought about wilting down greens right away. I also trim my veggies right away - beet greens, carrot tops, etc and feed the trimming to my guinea pigs. (Yes I know you can eat beet greens, but I really don't care for them)
I write my "local inventory" on a post-it and stick it on the front of the fridge. This helps A LOT.
Also, the Moosewood cookbooks are really great resources for using up these veggies. You can adapt them to use meat if you like. The Daily Special is my favorite.
I absolutely agree that dealing with everything right away is important to making sure nothing gets accidentally wasted.
And I stand by my salad spinner as absolutely KEY in the battle against sandy CSA greens.
Last year, my CSA would send out an email the morning of pickup day (pickup was Wednesday evening) listing what was in the baskets. It was really helpful to have a heads-up on the contents, so I could browse through recipes beforehand.
Wow I don't think I'll ever be able to do this
Missmimichi, it does sound overwhelming but when you get into the rhythm of what's in season it gets easier - you have more time to scout for recipes if you know you're getting an item for a few weeks in a row at least. Also, you can do what my family calls "food show": make a display of all the food and enjoy the colors and textures, then it gets your creative juices going!
We were too late to get into the CSA this year and we're just making a regular trips to the farmers' markets. We were pleased to find out that the prices got down (or store prices went up, so the market's prices seem ok). Either way, I think we're going to stick with the market. We only buy what we like, want and plan on using. And in case we're away we should not worry about rotting veggies. I think unless you are really into vegetables and/or have enough people to share them with - it just does not worth it ($10-20/wk spent on farmers' market vs $50 /wk CSA share)
What I love most about my CSA veggies is freezing them to stock up for the winter. I take out what my husband and I can eat during the week, and the rest gets blanched (including swiss chard, kale, etc.) and frozen. Then all winter long we have a supply of organic veggies ready to go.
My biggest issue with my CSA is all the lettuces i get. My bf doesn't really eat them and there's only so many salads i can eat before they wilt in 2 days!
Any ideas?
So right, about #1 especially. After an epic vegetable cleaning and prep session before weeknight cooking last week (dinner was served, on the coffee table, at 10:30), we instituted a new policy of washing and prepping (ends off green beans, stems out of mesclun mix) on Saturday right after the pick-up. The great part about this is building excitement for what to do with the great, fresh veggies on "cooking night" Tuesday. It also gives us time to plan.
BTW, Nudik, our CSA works out to about $10/week for a big box of veggies from Wayward Seed Farm given the long growing season in Ohio. Sure it means a whole lot of "what the heck do we do with all this Napa cabbage?" but it also introduced us to turnips (I know, the shame!). Plus, the CSA model allows for more market-resistant and risk-taking farming from our local farmers.
Our CSA just added a peak season option. Maybe that's a good way to get one's feet wet without the big commitment?
mh330 -- Firmer lettuce actually makes a decent soup, just substitue it in any cabbage soup recipe. Softer lettuce makes a great base to steam dumplings on.
As far as getting sand out goes, I don't have a salad spinner, but I do have a neat trick: I fill my sink with water and dump in as many greens as it will hold. The sand falls to the bottom and I pull out sand-free leaves. Sometime with kale or leeks it will take two rounds, but it always works well.
Hi: another way to use up all your good stuff is to HAVE A BIG PARTY and share with friends! I'ts also a good way to get others turned on to CSA.

Solid Desk
TATEone from North Carolina
I bought this desk because I had just moved into my first house and it was time to have something that wasn't from my college days. I wanted something nice and simple but also solid and modern looking. This desk is both of those things. I managed to put it together myself and move it into place, and I can attest that this thing is well made. Being 63" this desk gives plenty of room for a wide screen monitor, cable modem, eternal hard drive, etc. without looking at all cluttered. I don't know what else I can say except that this desk was exactly what I was looking for.

MMK Museum für Moderne Kunst Frankfurt am Main
When artist Peter Roehr, born in Lauenburg in 1944, died of cancer in Frankfurt in 1968, aged only 23, he left behind an oeuvre of great unity and recognizable rigor which many artists of the 1960s and 1970s referred to. The some 600 works he produced follow, without exception, the idea of serial repetition. From everyday materials that he found Roehr mounted (more or less) square collages or assemblages. In this way, he produced a surprisingly coherent body of photo, text, typography, object, sound and film montages that investigate the concept of redundancy without running the risk of becoming redundant themselves. Without any additional commentaries, Roehr put together words, pieces of wood, stamps, buttons, photos, items of advertising, from magazines and brochures to make a picture. Nothing has been manipulated, added or taken away. Never does the artist appear in the foreground. Faced with the flood of images presented by modern art, Peter Roehr uses a concept that does no more than select and name.
Peter Roehr's art did not find a wider audience until after his death. The radical reductions of his pictorial media and his uncompromising method of calculated seriality were, at the time, provocative and breathtaking, and they still are today, more than four decades later. In parallel to Andy Warhol's Brillo boxes and Campbell's soup tins, Roehr produced a work that combined the industrial materials finds of Pop Art, the aesthetic stringency of the Minimal movement and the intellectually radical nature of Concept Art.
However, as is demonstrated by the exhibition "Peter Roehr – Works from Frankfurt Collections", simultaneously presented as a cooperation between MMK Museum für Moderne Kunst Frankfurt/Main and the Städel Museum, Roehr's strict formalism is much richer and more garrulous than it might seem at first glance. And whereas MMK focuses on the photo and film montages, at the Städel Museum the artist's minimalist and formalist oeuvre with its clear, reduced formal vocabulary is assembled.
The exhibition has been sponsored by the City of Frankfurt/Main's museum cooperation pool.

can we reform the discussion surrounding gender inequality?
As of late, the gender discussion seems to dominate the mainstream discussion on social justice. The alarming trend that I have noticed is that it has become a real battle of the sexes where one side accuses the other of causing its demise, which means any progress for one gender is seen as a loss for the other. I am proposing that we start to reframe the gender debate in a way where we can honestly address issues faced by men without saying "men just don't have as bad", in a way where we can address female issues without saying "women complain too much, get over it.
We must remember that progress in gender justice is (or should be) a benefit for all not a sum zero battle. Often, we get caught up if tallying up a score on who has it worse, rather than finding ways to address issues for both sides, simultaneously.
What will you tell your sons or your daughters when they come to you for advice?

Jun 30 2012: Dany, I have to place much of the blame on media coverage. They report the extremes and exploit the "gory" details of all incidents. How often do you hear the good things that are happening in the world of EEOC, advances by people and companies, seldom because it is not news worthy. Tabloids and bad media keep the fires stirred up.
We do not need to re-focus or reform ... we need to accentuate the positive ... eliminate the infatuation with the negative. Perhaps a better way would be to resolve the issues on a smaller scale. Resolve them one on one not as a office issue where everyone must take a side.
My sons can all cook, sew, do dishes and have changed diapers. My daughters can change tires, do plumbing, and household repairs. The is no man / woman work .. there are tasks that need to be done.
All the best. Bob.
Jul 1 2012: I am so glad that you are raising your children do defy the stereotypes, to simply be who they want to be, outside of gender role restrictions. I also wholeheartedly agree with you that the media does tend to sensationalize the negative rather than give us more positivity. It would indeed help to have a little hope that things are on their way up

Nashua police aim to add two dogs
"At this time, we are ready to bring on two canines and two handlers to replace vacant positions," Police Chief John Seusing said in a written request to the city.
Seusing is asking that $13,000 in drug forfeiture funds be used to purchase a German shepherd and a Belgian Malinois.
The aldermanic Finance Committee will review the chief's request on Wednesday.
Sgt. John Harvey of the Nashua Police Department led the search to find the two new working dogs, which are expected to join the Nashua Police Department's Canine Unit that was established in 1996.
Harvey has visited with the two new police dogs, testing and evaluating them with their future handlers from the police department.
"It was important to find dogs that were not only the right temperament and match to the officer, but also the officer must have the right personality and style to match the selected canine to train and work together effectively," said Seusing.
There are currently two police dogs on the city's force, including Ginger, a bloodhound tracking dog, and Mautz, a German shepherd patrol and narcotics dog, Deputy Chief Scott Howe said.
The dogs are handled by officers Jeff Connors and Robert Dunn.
Most of the expenses for the police canine unit are paid with drug forfeiture money, although additional costs are defrayed by local businesses though donations of supplies.
"At one point we had four or five dogs, but now we are down to two," said Howe. "We are hoping to get the number back up to four, and eventually have six dogs on the unit."
The dogs are a tremendous asset to the Nashua Police Department, Howe said. They are used to track criminals from crime scenes, search for lost individuals, apprehend fleeing suspects and more, he said.
Dogs from the city's police department were used in drug searches at North and South high schools last fall, and they are also utilized in various community policing initiatives.
According to police officials, the new dogs and their handlers will be trained by Troy Casey of the Boston Police Department, who has been training the city's canine unit for many years. The dogs will be enrolled in a Police Canine Academy, according to the proposed purchase agreements with TBLACKK9 of Middleboro, Mass.
Arex, a male German shepherd, and Tango, a male Belgian Malinois, are each being sold for $6,500, according to the agreements. If the dogs cannot be certified as police canines, the seller will replace them with other dogs or issue a full refund.
"This is a big commitment for our handlers," said Howe, explaining the dogs are sent home with the assigned officers and become a part of their family.
Still, he said city officers are often eager to take on the dog handling responsibilities associated with the canine unit.
Wednesday's aldermanic Finance Committee meeting will begin at 7 p.m. at Nashua City Hall, where the proposed purchase of the two canines will be discussed.

18 people were hurt after a small fire at a cargo building at JFK Airport on Tuesday evening.
Four of the victims were hospitalized, one with chest pains and the other three with smoke inhalation after the fire.
The first call came in at about 7:30 p.m.
There apparently was a minor trash fire at loading dock 5 at building #23.
The Port Authority say the fire was put out quickly and it did not affect airport operations. The cause of the fire was still under investigation.

I began taking this BC in 2008. When I started I was 100 lbs. Within one year I gained 10 lbs. I am now up to 150lbs. I have tried dieting, working out, etc. and see ZERO results. In addition, before taking this, I would get the emotional type of PMS, crying because someone looked at me oddly. Nowadays, I am a mean mean person.

I'm 25 and I didn't go on birth control until last year because I was skeptical about it. I didn't like the idea of having to take it at the same time everyday and I was afraid I'd gain weight. I talked to my doctor and she recommended ortho tri cyclen lo. I'm on the generic brand of it but I've never had any issues. The first couple weeks I spotted a little but it was just ...

Ease of Use
Overall ortho tri cyclen lo is an effective pill, due to the fact that I haven't gotten pregnant. It's very easy to take since it's a tiny pill. There are a couple of cons though: this pill caused me to experience vaginal dryness (I'm 22) and my periods lasted longer (almost a whole week) I'm definitely not going back to this pill and I'm switching it up with my doctor.

For all you Verizon and Sprint MiFi users with an iPhone or iPod Touch, listen up. There's an app called Mi-Fi that lets you monitor your Mifi's bandwidth, connected IPs, connection time and battery level. I'm not sure how it jacks into this info, but I'm assuming it's done over WiFi and doesn't require any special tinkering. I especially like that someone built an app for a product that isn't available from AT&T, but rather their two competitors.

What is Jeune Syndrome?
Jeune Syndrome is caused by defective cilia (hair like protrusions that protrude from the cell), which underlies many genetic conditions that are collectively known as 'ciliopathies'.
Jeune Syndrome is an autosomal recessive genetic condition which means that both parents must carry a defective copy of a Jeune gene, and that any children that they conceive will have a one in four chance of developing Jeune Syndrome.
The estimation of how many people with Jeune Syndrome there are varies hugely, from a meagre 250 worldwide to a probably more fair estimate of between 60 to 70,000 cases worldwide.
In the UK alone, 1 in every 100,000 births results in a child with Jeune Syndrome, with an estimated 600 people in the UK with Jeune Syndrome currently.
Thanks to modern techniques in post natal care, many of these children are now living well into their teens and adulthood.
Unfortunately, due to its rarity, Jeune Syndrome is severely under diagnosed with many experienced geneticists and paediatricians never having seen a case before.
A suspected case of Jeune Syndrome is usually picked up on at or shortly after birth. These families are then referred on to their regional genetics service who make the diagnosis on certain Jeune characteristics, primarily taken from X ray imaging which may show abnormal pelvis configuration, shortening of the ribs and long bones (limbs), small thoracic cavity and abnormally shaped interphalangeal articulations (the hinge joints between the fingers).
Although Jeune Syndrome is its most commonly used name, it can also be referred to as Asphyxiating Thoracic Dystrophy (ATD or JATD).
