Almond milk is one of my new favorite things. I drink – literally – a gallon a week. By myself. I actually looked into buying stock in Blue Diamond, as they've seemed to gain a corned on the market (alas, it's not a publicly traded company. But if they ever IPO…!).
That said, I've long wanted to experiment with making my own almond milk at home. The process couldn't be easier (soak almonds, blend, strain, done), but I'd just never gotten around to it (or, more like, I'd just never planned ahead). I was recently asked to write an article for Actively Northwest highlighting nut milk and nut butters, which provided the perfect opportunity (read: kick in the pants) to make it at home. And wow! Was I glad I did. Not only was it as easy as I'd hoped, but the taste was remarkably better than what I buy at the store. The only catch: it doesn't last all that long in the fridge sans preservatives, so only make what you can drink in a few days (for me, this is never a problem. See above).
But if you're looking to use up some of that extra milk, there are a myriad of ways to cook, bake with, or otherwise consume almond milk, and I've highlighted a few below. Enjoy!
Almond Milk – Basic Recipe:
Soaking the nuts overnight – or even longer – will ensure a creamier texture. And while almond is the most popular nut, you can also make delicious, creamy milk out of cashews.
Place 1 cup raw nuts in a bowl and cover with an inch of water. Let stand 12-24 hours, uncovered. Drain and rinse the nuts, which will be plump and soft, then place in a blender with 2 cups filtered water. Blend at high speed for two minutes then strain in a colander lined with cheesecloth or nut cloth. Gather the ends of the cloth and squeeze tightly to extract as much milk as possible. Voila!
Almond milk rice pudding
I love rice pudding. And tapioca pudding. And pumpkin pudding. Luckily, all of these are simple to make, and all of them are equally – if not more – delicious when made with almond milk. Enjoy!
- 1 1/2 cups sushi or arborio rice, rinsed
- 1/3 cup sugar
- Pinch of salt
- 1 tsp vanilla extract + ¼ tsp almond extract
- 1 tsp cinnamon
- 7 cups unsweetened almond milk
- Toasted sliced almonds, peaches or berries, to serve
In a large saucepan, combine the rice, sugar, salt, cinnamon, extracts and 1 cup of the almond milk. Cook over low heat, stirring, until the almond milk is absorbed, 5 minutes. Gradually add the remaining almond milk, 1 cup at a time, stirring and cooking until the sauce is very thick, 25 minutes (it's like making a sweet risotto). Let cool, then stir in the remaining 1 cup of almond milk. Serve topped with almonds, berries, cinnamon, or other fruit (sliced fresh peaches are excellent)
Creamed kale with crunchy almond-herb topping
I know, I know, kale has had its day in the sun already, but this dish is actually quite delicious, and a departure from the ho-hum kale salads that seem to grace every menu in Seattle. While creamed spinach is more traditional, I prefer this recipe made with kale, which has more integrity than spinach.
Serves 6 as a side, or 4 as a main dish
- 2 bunches kale, washed, de-stemmed and sliced thinly
- 2 tablespoons butter
- 2 shallots, thinly sliced
- 3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
- 2 cups unsweetened almond milk
- 1/2 cup grated Parmigiano-Reggiano cheese
- 1/2 cup panko breadcrumbs
- ½ cup sliced almonds
- ¼ cup minced fresh parsley
- 2 tablespoons minced fresh marjoram
- Preheat the oven to 425°.
- Bring a large saucepan of water to a low simmer. Add the kale by the handful; allow each handful to wilt before adding more. Cook for 4-5 minutes until kale is tender. Drain and press or squeeze kale to remove as much water as possible.
- Dry the pot, then return to heat and add butter and shallots; cook over medium heat until soft. Whisk in the flour and cook for 1 minute. Add the almond milk and simmer until very thick, whisking occasionally, 5 minutes. Stir in the cheese and kale. Season with salt and pepper. Spoon into a baking dish.
- In a separate pan, toast the panko and almonds over medium heat. Stir in the herbs and sprinkle over the creamed kale.
- Bake for 15-20 minutes, until golden.
- Serve warm

I might be reading the chart wrong, but Windows OS is higher in some categories
This was the biggest waste of news I've seen on this sight. Pointless information that shows nothing.
lol looks like some kid just made a chart lol wtf 0 percent of windows owners have a bill more than 200 lol thats what im talking about
It is what it is. This is what has been bothering me the entire time I've owned iphones!
Even though my bill is $70/month, it is still too much just to own one!
So I don't see why carriers keep pushing Android phones. For their own benefit with monthly residuals, this would mean that they are better off pushing iPhones on perspective buyers.
Well people do like their iPhones
man i just got done playing with my friends s3 i shouldve bought one instead of the 5 im so dissapointed man all they did to the ui is change the dialer and i think thats just ios6 im beginning to think apple thinks im stupid or something
Dont know. I spent $45/mo with ST and very happy
Under $25 for a smartphone? I wonder which carrier they use and what services they get from the carrier. Maybe they get no data service at all? If so, what's the point of having a smartphone? Is it just to give others a fake impression?

I use Power Auras on all my toons all the time with no issues in any group or raid or bg or solo. I do experience the focus bug which is why I made a keybind to focus my target (it's in keybinds after all and ctrl+shift+f has nothing better to do). You can also target someone and /focus to do it manually.
Another common issue is trying to /inspect people. Once they get out of range, or into combat, and especially if they are from another server, things get screwy fast. You can ignore this error with no problems, but if you constantly have it, then something is trying to inspect people.
So make sure all your addons are up to date. The focus thing has been around forever, as has the inspect thing, so just ignore those (well if you have something trying to inspect everyone, I would question why you need this). If you are having problems outside of this, then try not loading everything and slowly adding another once you are sure it's not that.
Addon Control panel is your friend for this. Good luck.

A life of learning is not for the meek
against your views some will loudly speak;
jackals sneering and snickering in their folly
and in that moment others may seem jolly.
Persevere in all your thoughts as most are not that flawed
as when all beauty meets a beast and so then must be pawed
like a raging vandal they will come roaring in their glory
it is your peace and confidence that illustrate the story.
Becalm the savage verbal gale with your gentle words and reason
it is in your words the logic lies and most will find that pleasin'
and when the storm subsides and skulks away
know that in your learning - you taught someone today.

For many centuries in Europe, homosexuality was conceived principally as certain sexual acts... we must not be complicit in this dehumanization. These "sodomites" were human beings with whom the modern gay man may claim brotherhood and the modern lesbian recognize as sisters. To divide history in two in 1869 at the moment when the word "homosexual" was coined is to deny this bond. To adopy Michel Foucault's view that the homosexual did not exist "as a person" until this time is to reject a rich and terrible past.Crompton is survived by his partner of 40 years, Luis Diaz-Perdomo.

Definición de rationalism en inglés:
rationalismSaltos de línea: ra¦tion¦al|ism
Pronunciación: /ˈraʃ(ə)n(ə)lɪz(ə)m /

Happy birthday to Mr.Kalashnikov who turned 94 today. If you don't recognize him and know what he has achieved then do some research.
>TAMPA (CBS Tampa) — Artist Jon McNaughton is standing up for gun rights in his latest painting.
>Titled "Stand Your Ground" – a controversial law brought into the limelight when George Zimmerman fatally shot Trayvon Martin in Sanford, Fla. – his work depicts a man dressed in soldier fatigues holding both an assault rifle and an American flag.
Can this be any more American ?
This might make me lose some followers, so be it.
Does anyone remember this girl? Probably not, but she was murdered in 2012 by two teenagers. Why? They wanted to steal parts from her bicycle. Strange though, I don't remember seeing the Miami Heat riding bicycles on to the court. I don't remember seeing any celebrities putting pink streaks in their hair.
The two teens could have easily pushed this girl off her bike and taken it, getting what they wanted. Instead they chose to beat a defenseless 12 year old girl to death and stuff her body in a trash can. One of the murderers is such a complete and utter SCUMBAG that he went to her memorial vigil praying for her safe return and "liked" the Facebook page created for her. Since everyone else is using the race argument the last couple days, enjoy this:
These were two black teenagers that willingly chose to brutally end a 12 year olds life (official causes of death were blunt force trauma and strangulation). She was beat and then strangled until she took her last breath. An innocent 12 year old girl went through an enormous amount of suffering because two wanna be thugs wanted to steal her bicycle.
Where is the justice in the national media? I don't remember seeing any celebrities showing support. I must have missed the event where Lil Jon wore his "Justice for Autumn" shirt.
If the skin colors were reversed in this incident, Jesse Jackson and the NAACP would have swarmed south Jersey crying "hate crime" until they were blue in the face, but since that's not the case here, you probably haven't heard about this case, that happened in October 2012. You didn't hear about two teenagers luring a girl who was friends with one of her soon to be killers to their house. You didn't hear about a clear cut case of the 1st degree murder of a 12 year old girl…. somebody's daughter… somebody's sister… someone's classmate who won't be joining them in 7th grade in September.
Why? Because the media doesn't want you to. There is more money to be made in overhyping a murder trial where someone is claiming self defense than a little girl's body in a trash can…. but I guess that's just the world we live in.
You don't have to like this.
You don't have to reblog this.
But hopefully you read it.
Hopefully it opened your eyes.
RIP Autumn Pasquale

The proposed legislation could be signed into law as early as the end of this week. However, Google's DNS service started leaving the country on September 12th, the day President Rousseff announced her intention to require local storage of user data." more»

True. As is Wowhead. I've seen plenty of people asking for specific items in Trade and use the link for the recipe that will be used. I, myself, have used Wowhead to link the item I wanted made.
Though, the advice in the article does help out. It is less likely to get cheated by having the person link their profession. At least then you know they have the pattern in question. Doesn't really stop them from stealing the mats during trade, but that's a risk you take using Trade. It's not that dangerous. There aren't that many people out to steal your mats. Just enough people to make you wary.

Smart idea for building a basement bathroom can help increase the sale value of your house. A basement bathroom does not require a totally furnished basement. While designing such a bathroom though, make sure you have a detailed plan for the room.
Planning the schematic beforehand by understanding the current plumbing system in the basement can help you figure out proper locations for drainage pipe, sump pump system, electrical outlets, bathroom fan, and so on. Needless to say, determine the type of bathroom and major fixtures that you want in the basement.
Ideas for Designing Basement Bathrooms
- Basement bathrooms are better off with showers rather than bath tubs. Plus, you can opt for fiberglass shower enclosure.
- Going for an up-flushing basement toilet that pumps the water up to an overhead drainage pipe is one of the most popular ideas used in basement bathrooms.
- Try to place the basement bathroom in line with the plumbing of other bathrooms or kitchen in the house. It can help reduce the cost, to some extent.
- As a bathroom in a basement is likely to have small space due to low floor to ceiling height, include ambient lighting and choose large mirrors (place them strategically) for the room so that it does not look dark and constricted. You will need general as well as task lighting.
- Having a medicine cabinet for keeping emergency medications in the in the basement is another useful idea that can be incorporated for a basement bathroom.
- A basement bathroom, especially the one with a shower should be equipped with an exhaust fan in order to remove the damp air out of the house. Moreover, unless you are extremely skilled in plumbing and electrical work, it is better to leave these tasks up to a processional to avoid troubles in the future.
- Basement bathrooms often do not have windows and thus lack in natural light. So, to make the room appear bright, you can opt for light colored walls such as white, yellow, aqua, pink, etc.
- Consider adding a steam shower unit in the basement bathroom.
Here's a video showing how to frame and plumb a basement bathroom.
- Coming to bathroom storage, do not keep plenty of bathing supplies in a small basement bathroom. Just store the essential toiletries on shelves and in vanity cabinet. You can also get an over the toilet storage unit. Plus, utilize the space under the sink.
- You can opt for durable marble and tumbled flooring in the basement bathroom. Travertine floor tiles also look elegant. As for walls, you can use semi gloss enamel paint on them. You may consider solid vinyl wallpaper or moisture resistant wallboard as well. Vinyl wallpapers have the ability to withstand moisture and humidity. For finishing, use a sealant containing low polyurethane odor.
- Ideas for developing basement bathrooms usually lay emphasis on one-wall plumbing layout. Besides, it is suggested to assess the requirements of your local building code and consult your local estate agent to help you make a functional and effective plan.

Since I have internet in my hotel room, it will be easy for me to blog when we visit Dongdaemun, or any other places that interest sewists.
In the meantime, for my friends and family curious about my non-sewing fun in Korea, check out my daughter's blog.
(disclaimer: I am not really a very mature or cultured person like I pretend. And my daughter... well, the fruit doesn't fall far from the tree... OK, you were warned.)
one more thing...
When the captain announces "Flight attendants, prepare for landing", I think that means "put the scarves and ribbons back on". At first, I thought the scarves and ribbons were a little odd, but I was won over. They rocked 'em.
...ummm, if I start wearing a scarf or a ribbon like that, please let me know it only works on Korean Flight Attendants. Thanks.

Tuscaloosa, AL (SportsNetwork.com) - Trevor Releford drained a 3-pointer with less than second to play as the Alabama Crimson Tide stunned the Ole Miss Rebels, 67-64, in a SEC thriller at Coleman Coliseum.
Releford finished with a game-high 26 points for Alabama (10-14, 4-7 SEC), which snapped a four-game losing streak. Nick Jacobs added 18 points, Shannon Hale chipped in 15 and Rodney Cooper cleared 10 boards.
Marshall Henderson paced Ole Miss (16-8, 7-4) with 14 points, although he connected on just 4-of-15 from the floor. Anthony Perez tacked on 13 points and LaDarius White tallied 10 points and eight rebounds. The Rebels had won two of their previous three games.
The Crimson Tide entered halftime leading, 33-26. They connected on 44.8 percent from the field in the first half, while limiting Ole Miss to 32.1 percent.
The Rebels improved to 42.9 percent shooting in the second period, while Alabama slowed to 37.9 percent. However, the Crimson Tide had a 64-58 lead with just over a minute to play. Ole Miss rallied, with Henderson nailing a 3- pointer and Jarvis Summers hitting a pair of free-throws in the final minute to tie the game at 64-64. Releford then saved Alabama from overtime with his last-second heroics.
Alabama outscored Ole Miss, 34-18, in the paint. The Rebels also had a 42-34 edge on the glass.

Before becoming governor, Malloy served as the mayor of Stamford for 14 years from 1995-2009, making him the longest serving mayor in the city's history. Prior to this streak, Malloy served as a member of the town's Boards of Finance and Education.
His experience in public service began as a prosecutor in Brooklyn, NY, where he served for four years as an assistant district attorney. Malloy is a former trustee of the U.S. Conference of Mayors, a former president of the Connecticut Council of Municipalities, and a former member of the Stamford Cultural Development Organization.[2]
Despite presiding among Democratic majorities in both chambers of the state legislature, since taking office, Malloy's characteristically liberal-Democratic approach to issues such as economy policy and public safety has caused occasional friction between the executive and legislative branches. For example, his 2011 plan to repair the state's budget deficit by raising taxes on retail sales, individuals and corporations angered Republican lawmakers who believed the increases were "massive and unnecessary."[3]
Malloy's first term was marked by the December 2012 elementary school shooting in Newtown, Connecticut, a tragedy which compelled states across the nation to re-examine their own gun laws. In April 2014, Malloy signed a highly anticipated gun control package giving Connecticut some of the toughest in the country, and his venomous, public responses to the National Rifle Associations criticism over the law escalated already rising tensions between gun-control and gun-rights institutions.[4]
On March 28, 2014, Malloy formally announced his bid for a second term as governor alongside 2010 running mate and current Lt. Gov. Nancy Wyman.[5] An early report from Governing named him among the five incumbents considered most vulnerable to losing their seats the 2014 gubernatorial election cycle.[6]
Malloy is the youngest of eight children and has six brothers and one sister. He grew up in Stamford, Connecticut and struggled with dyslexia throughout his childhood. Malloy has admitted he still does not write or type well, but has developed a strong memory and is able to speak with little reliance on notes. He attended Boston College, where he met his wife, Cathy, and then went on to earn his J.D. from Boston College's law school.[7]
Malloy worked as an Assistant District Attorney in Brooklyn from 1980 to 1984, moving to Connecticut to join the law firm of Abate & Fox in 1984. He was a partner there until he began his first mayoral term in 1995.[7]

Political career
Governor of Connecticut (2010-Present)
Malloy was first elected Governor of Connecticut in 2010. He assumed office on January 5, 2011.
Affordable Care Act ("Obamacare")
In December, 2012, Malloy declined to enter Connecticut into the federal health-exchange system established under the Affordable Care Act, otherwise known as "Obamacare," in favor of setting up a state-based system.[8] Connecticut is one of eighteen states - including Colorado, New York, Maryland, Massachusetts, and Washington - that decided to create and run individual health-exchange systems by the December 14, 2012, deadline. The exchange is an online marketplace for citizens to purchase health insurance.[9][10]
Gun control
Following the December 2012 shooting in Newton, Connecticut, gun control was expected to be a major issue. Malloy set up an advisory committee to look at the state's gun laws. According to spokesman Andrew Doba in January 2013, Malloy favored a ban on large-capacity magazines.[11]
Malloy signed a package of gun control laws on April 4, 2013, giving Connecticut some of the toughest in the country. Provisions of the package included a ban on the sale or purchase of ammunition magazines with more than 10 rounds, the creation of a council to establish school safety standards and an expansion of the circumstances disqualifying applicants for gun permits due to mental history.[12]
National Rifle Association CEO and executive vice president Wayne La Pierre criticized the laws, saying they would not have prevented the shooting at Sandy Hook Elementary School. Malloy shot back, stating, "Wayne reminds me of the clowns at the circus. They get the most attention and that's what he's paid to do. But the reality is that the gun that was used to kill 26 people on December 14 was legally purchased in the state of Connecticut, even though we had an assault weapons ban."[13]
Natural Resources Committee
In October 2013, Malloy was appointed Vice Chair of the Natural Resources Committee in the National Governors Association by NGA Chair Oklahoma Governor Mary Fallin and NGA Vice Chair Colorado Governor John Hickenlooper.[14]
Job creation ranking
In a June 2013 analysis by The Business Journals looking at 45 of the country's 50 governors by their job creation record, Malloy was ranked number 38. The five governors omitted from the analysis all assumed office in 2013. The ranking was based on a comparison of the annual private sector growth rate in all 50 states using data from the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics.[15][16]
Judicial appointments
As governor, Malloy is responsible for appointing judges to Connecticut state courts. In Connecticut, the governor appoints a judge following recommendations from a judicial selection commission. Before an appointee can take office, the nomination must be confirmed by the Connecticut General Assembly. For an up-to-date list of all of Malloy's appointees, see Judgepedia's page on his appointments.
Tax hikes
During the 2011 legislative session, Malloy pushed $1.5 billion worth of tax increases to help bridge a budget gap estimated at $3.3 billion. Individual and corporate income tax rates rose, along with inheritance, alcohol, cigarette and gasoline levies. Additionally, the retail sales tax rate rose from 6% to 6.35%. The Republican legislative minority strongly criticized Malloy and Democratic leaders, calling their plan a "massive and unnecessary tax hike."[3]
Mayor of Samford (1995-2009)
Malloy was first elected Mayor of Samford, CT in 1995 and served an unprecedented 14 years until 2009.[7]

Malloy is running for re-election in 2014 alongside Lt. Gov. Nancy Wyman, who was also his running mate in 2010.[5] He was uncontested for the Democratic nomination in the August 12 primary. The general election takes place November 4, 2014.
Race background
On March 28, 2014, current Democratic incumbent Gov. Dan Malloy formally announced his bid for re-election to a second term. He is re-teaming with 2010 running mate and current Lt. Gov. Nancy Wyman for the 2014 race.[5] Early on, Malloy was flagged as one of the most vulnerable incumbents of the 2014 gubernatorial election cycle.[19] As the campaign season has progressed, the Daily Kos has reaffirmed Malloy's tenuous position, labeling the race a toss-up. The rating was assigned in consideration of a series of polls showing Malloy behind or rivaling Republican nominee Tom Foley in potential general election match-ups.[20][21] The Cook Political Report, meanwhile, has consistently rated Connecticut as "Lean D," meaning the race is competitive but the Democrats have an advantage.[22]
Malloy won the governorship in November 2010 following a hard-fought general election campaign against Republican Tom Foley, a wealthy Republican businessman and former U.S. ambassador to Ireland under former President George W. Bush. The contest ended over a week after the general election took place. There were several reversed calls on the outcome of the race before Malloy finally emerged as the victor.[23] At the May 2014 State Republican Convention, delegates endorsed Foley for the second gubernatorial cycle in a row, bringing him one step closer to a 2014 re-match against Malloy. Although Foley was the resounding favorite at the convention, fellow GOP hopeful and current state Sen. majority leader John McKinney managed to garner enough delegate support to remain eligible for the nomination, preventing Foley from running unopposed in the August 12 primary.[24]
One Independent candidate, Joe Visconti, will appear on the general election ballot alongside Malloy and Foley. Former state Rep. and career political operative Jonathan Pelto also petitioned to run as an independent, but failed to collect the minimum 7,500 signatures required to qualify for the race.[25] Pelto backed Malloy's 2010 gubernatorial campaign before publicly turning against him for his policies on education and taxes, among other issues, during Malloy's first term in office. Pelto's 2014 bid gained media attention in August when his candidate petition was signed by Ralph Nader, the perennial third party presidential candidate perhaps best known for his indirect role in spoiling Al Gore's chances at the presidency in 2000 by siphoning crucial liberal votes. Nader's sudden presence in the Connecticut Gubernatorial race evoked a sense of deja-vu for Malloy and Democratic strategists, who immediately accused Pelto of running in order to manipulate the election's outcome, not to win it.[26]

Malloy ran for Governor of Connecticut in 2010. He faced Ned Lamont in the August 10 primary, defeating him by a margin of 57.7% to 42.3%.
Malloy faced Republican Thomas C. Foley in the general election on November 2, 2010. After several reversed calls on the winner of the race and more than a one week delay, Malloy finally emerged as the victor.[27]
Campaign themes
- Teachers: During a telephone town hall to 3,000 teachers on September 22, 2010, Malloy referenced the state's constitutional obligation to provide education and called binding arbitration a right that avoids strikes. "If you want a governor who understands that binding arbitration is the hallmark of quality education in Connecticut," Malloy said. "I am not going to change your right to binding arbitration... The other folks on the other side have a big target on your back." Malloy said funding from the state has not kept pace with general inflation, let alone the rate of education inflation. He called the concessions made by teachers to date "noble." "I believe a contract is a contract is a contract," Malloy said, adding that it is unfair that "public employees are singled out for these givebacks." Malloy said he would "hold school systems harmless" for the 14.5 percent cut in education cost sharing grants imposed by Gov. M. Jodi Rell (R). According to Malloy, the cuts were hidden through the use of federal funds from the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act. He said he would return ECS grants at least to their original level when the stimulus funds expire.
- Merit Pay: Malloy said he worried about the "potential unfairness" of merit pay or making salaries reflect test results. He said such proposals are "a little scary, a little frightening" and that some people might not teach in urban areas "for fear that their compensation would be withheld." Instead, he said he supported "a system of review to ensure high quality teachers."
- Pensions: "We're going to have to have the discipline to fully fund our pension funds," Malloy said about Connecticut's ranking as the fifth worst state for funding pension obligations. He said he had not given up on making defined benefit plans – pensions – work. "We can. We know we can," he said.[29]
Campaign donors
Comprehensive donor information for Malloy is available dating back to 2006. Based on available campaign finance records, Malloy raised a total of $11,949,238 during that time period. This information was last updated on July 8, 2013.[30]

How the Future Shaped the Past: The Case of the Cashless Society
AbstractThis paper invites readers to look into how beliefs about future events help to better understand organizational change. Our argument is that the adoption of information technology and the adoption of new organizational forms around it have been driven by shifts in collective ideas of legitimate organizational development. As an example we focus on the establishment during the 1960s of a vision within US retail financial services, namely of the "cashless/checkless society". The article tells of the power of this "imaginaire" to bring consensus in driving actual technological developments.

Breaking Bad Star Aaron Paul Engaged

Filed under BridalStars, Celebrity engagements
Aaron Paul, who won an Emmy as Best Supporting Actor in a Drama Series for his role as meth dealer Jesse Pinkman in AMC's Breaking Bad in 2010 has now won the heart of the woman he loves.
While Parisians popped the corks on bottles of champagne on New Year's Eve, the actor popped the question to Lauren Parsekian during their romantic holiday getaway, US weekly reports.
Sharing the happy news with family and friends via Facebook, the bride-to-be (who is the cofounder of the Kind Campaign to end girl-against-girl bullying) shared a photo of her engagement ring and stated that the proposal "Couldn't be more perfect. I'm so happy and excited and honored to share my life with the most amazing man on the planet."

David Mitchell owns Bunyan Industries, a Salt Lake City-based manufacturer of roller screeds. In this article from Public Works sister publication Concrete Construction, he explains why superabsorbent polymer (SAP) wasn't used on a pervious concrete slab embellished with the American Concrete Institute's new logo.
He says "people are misguided about that being the essential component for successful pervious or as a shortcut in moist curing."
Au contraire, says the executive director of the National Pervious Concrete Pavement Association.
ProCure LLC CEO Dale Fisher says in this article that SAP's an industry-accepted and proven alternative to curing with 6 mil plastic sheeting.

It was great seeing him on stage, and I liked that part best. Not only for telling the story of mysterious actress, but also for reminding Guare's great hits, like "Six Degrees" or "Lydie Breeze"
— Mary, New York
June 21st, 201311:07 am
What I mostly treasured was the centerpiece of the night. Omar Sangare's vocal and physical dexterity contrasts nicely against John Guare's professorial delivery.
— Ruby, LIC
June 21st, 201311:07 am
What a thoughtful, wonderful, vibrant show!
— Irma, NY
June 21st, 201311:07 am
The experiences portrayed on stage are interesting and the actors figured out how to make them theatrically engaging. Another success of John Guare.
— Betty, Midtown
June 19th, 201311:13 am
This is a very accurate review. The treasure of the night is the second part. The show wouldn't be the same without it. Before there is a tasty apetizer, though, just to make you want more. More is delivered immediately after.
— Geoff, greater ny
June 19th, 201311:13 am
This was such a disappointing play. The writing and acting was unacceptably
bad. If there had been an intermission, the theater would have emptied.
I can't understand how the Atlantic Theater group decided to produce it. Their
supporters deserve better.
— Barbara, NYC
June 17th, 201312:12 pm
Now I totally understand John Guare's decision to tell this story by himself. A great debut and a touching goodbye to a friend. He couldn't have a better stage partner, this all makes it worth to go and see this show.
— Leilah, NY
June 17th, 201312:12 pm
Parts one and two made me think Guare is a closet essayist turned lecturer. And what's with two people giving the lecture, with no rhyme or reason why one talks at any particular time? Two guys behind podiums talking about incidents does not make theater. At the end of the play, people barely clapped, so i wasn't the only one watching the minutes crawl by endlessly.
— DM, New York, NY
June 17th, 201311:59 am
Save your time and your money... probably the worst play that I've seen in this very unrewarding theater season!
— JVC, Paris
June 17th, 201311:36 am
The first piece was an interesting monologue, I will give the show that. The second piece is recycle from the Fringe Festival and I understood maybe 5% of what Mr. Moran said because of his thick accent and garbled talk, speech coach anyone? The third piece was a Gilbert and Sullivan wannabe meets Titanic (the disaster, not the musical)... It was such a mess, I started blocking it from mind while I was watching it, ugh.
June 17th, 201311:32 am
An incredible, captivating and inspring piece.
— Vince, Hoboken
June 17th, 201311:06 am
These stories can be uplifting and devastating at the same time, and this is the power of this play. Courageous characters played by talented actors. There could be some improvements in the final part, but the first and—mostly—the second make that up to you.
— Molly, Newport, CT
June 10th, 201311:46 am
John Guare on stage? You bet I'm there. Heard a lot of positive things about this piece.
— A follower, New York
June 10th, 201311:46 am
I enjoyed the show a lot for the two first parts. The third one was the biggest disappointment. The only thing I remember is the f-word used repetedly for no reason
— Jeff, NYC
June 10th, 201311:46 am
John Guare's mind is a repository of amazing stories. I mostly enjojed the duet performed by Guare himself with Omar Sangare, an actor who played young Paul in the Polish production of Six Degrees of Separation – together they tell the intricate, fabulous, sad story of the actress who left Poland when she married American journalist David Halberstam and almost never acted again. It's a nutty chunk of theater, well-staged and worth seeing.
— Lizzie, New Rochelle, NY
June 10th, 201311:46 am
John Guare has written a smart, funny, thought-provoking play. The styles seem different than previous plays. I found myself very moved by the first and second pieces, but the third one did not make itself known to me. My brain was rebelling against the storytelling methodology.
— Ms. Tari, New York
June 10th, 201311:46 am
Martin Moran tells the slight but interesting tale well. The author, playing himself, and charismatic actor Omar Sangare tell a fascinating story. Pittu as the playwright Gombrowiz acquits himself honorably. The rest of the ensemble shall remain nameless.
— Bob, NY
June 10th, 201311:46 am
The third part is awfully straightforward. The first two have theatrical magic, the second one in particular, got the longest lasting and loudest applause to none of my surprise.
— Barb, Queens, N.Y.
June 10th, 201311:46 am
I found this excerpt from the opening of this play, just so everyone can get a glimpse:
"This is a story that a friend of mine told to me a few years ago. I was sitting in his house in England. I was going through some personal troubles and a solution to them stymied me. I brought my bag of woes to him.
He listened and then said "Let me tell you something that might have relevance to you." He poured a drink. The afternoon light came in. And this is what he told me.
My friend was in his late twenties in the early 1950s. At that time, my friend found himself covered with a rash that was extraordinarily uncomfortable. It had begun as a small itch as if a gnat had bitten and left its teeth. The itch grew. He thought it must have come from wool in his underpants, his undershirt. He switched to cotton. The itching continued. The itching now a bright red rash spread down his legs and up his chest. At first he felt his body was blushing. He looked down and watched the crimson spread. In some weird variation on Kafka, was he turning into a tomato? He felt like an Easter egg someone had dipped into fuchsia. He felt like a tropical flower out of Gaugin. He felt his body was the red of anger. But anger over what? He had graduated successfully from Oxford. He worked successfully, even happily, for an international manufacturing company. Yes, he was happy. He was healthy. He was successful. The rash now reached the bottom of his feet."
— Little Star, New York
June 10th, 201311:46 am
I must admit I didn't like everything about this play. But what touched me most were the moments of choices, especially in the second and third piece. The actors do great job understanding when their characters are in doubt and what kind of decisions they are about to make. Great mix of local talents, Atlantic Ensemble members, the playwright making his debut, and his magnificent co-star from Poland.

Great to see how this piece evolved since it was first shown at the Atlantic Stage 2. Two good choices: keeping the Polish actor, with a rare talent of expression, and replacing the other one with John Guare himself. Plus all the names known to Atlantic audience, doing their job really well in the two other stories.

This play proves to me what a great playwright can be capable of. Guare's writing at its best, but with totally unexpected stories, and three different forms at once: one actor play, a duo of the playwright with a charming and skilled actor, and a more traditional piece with ensemble and music (good score!). Could be a bit shorter, but it's still in previous, mayble they'll make some cuts.

I found it corresponding with current discussion on the immigration reform. It helps you understand how hard is to be on the exile, and how differently people come to the decision of leaving their country.

Avoid this show at all costs. While the first monologue is intriguing, the second piece is a useless 92nd St Y lecture and the 3rd piece is like going to a dinner theater in Orlando FL (except that costs $24.99 and comes with frozen chicken). What a sad evening at the theater.

This is a pearl among hundreds of pieces shown in this city every night. So different and unique. You can't really understand it without knowing the history of 20th century, and with no compassion or empathy. These are not stories some guy made up after a few drinks—they happened for real. Highly recommended.
