No Fridge for a Week! Do You Know Your Renter's Rights?
A few weeks ago my fridge just quit and within about 24 hours of its final shudder everything inside was at room temperature. I contacted my landlord and heard back a day later via voicemail that someone would come to remove it next week. Momentary panic set in. Remove it... what about replacing it? Next week? It was only Monday so that was at least seven days away.
I tried to contact them but was sent to voicemail and while waiting for a response (which took yet another day) I decided to look into my rights as a renter and how others had handled the same situation.
Renters' rights vary from city to city and may depend on what your situation is or what agreements you have signed with your landlord. In my particular situation I live in a brownstone building that is family owned (i.e. no big corporation to deal with, which is good and bad) and my rental agreement is month to month. In Boston this is considered "Tenant at Will."
In the city of Boston a landlord is not required to provide a tenant with a refrigerator although the space and facilities for one must be available. However, in the case one is provided, it must be kept in good working order. Whew.
My refrigerator was replaced, and because it took over a week I requested (and was granted) a deduction in my rent the next month to help cover the cost of replacing the food.

Has anyone experienced a similar situation? How did you handle it?

Renter's insurance might also help offset the cost of replacing the food.
My coworkers had similar situations with their air conditioners here. Land lords are notorious for not honoring their side of the lease and their legal responsibilities since there's always a fresh replacement tenant to victimize. Most tenants are on the transient side and usually keep quiet and move on rather than fight being cheated since fighting seems a hopeless waste of limited funds. On the up side, when local tenants do take it to court, the judges usually favor them because they know all that.
Good to know, Kim!!
Boston's horrible landlords are the reason why I had my renter's rights memorized. I've had to call inspectors on more than one occasion to get a landlord to even pretend to try and fix anything. Horrifyingly scummy - in nice neighborhoods!
same thing happened to a girl in my complex. she specifically asked the landlords to check on her place while she was out of town, because the fridge was having some issues.
they said they would, but did not, and all of her frozen food (freezer was completely full) had to be tossed.
she asked for a discount on rent, and one was not granted. they provided her with a $50 gift card and called it a day.
not nearly enough to cover the cost of food, but she was a pushover.
Renters insurance would have helped cover the food - but a bit more communication and gumption on the renter's part would have been useful as well:
If you didn't hear from the landlord within a couple hours - Why did you wait until the next day? What if the landlord was on an extended vacation out of the country - Would you have sat on your hands and waited a couple weeks?
Were you incapable of calling a repair company to come out and service the thing? After hearing that it would take a week, did you ever consider going out and getting yourself a replacement fridge which could be delievered within a day - and sending the bill to the landlord? (If he chose not to pay, you'd still have a nice new fridge to take with you when you move)
IMO, you're as much - if not more - at fault for not having a functioning fridge for a week as your landlord.
My boyfriend's old landlord was AWESOME, and when their fridge died on New Year's Eve (right before a giant party, of course) she somehow arranged for another one to arrive New Year's Day. As a bonus it was the dead of winter, so everything survived a night in plastic tubs on the porch. Best. Landlord. Ever.
"tenant at will" is a common term used in most places to describe that the renter has the power to cancel the overall agreement.
Just check out your city's municipal code for detail-oriented questions. Most will put it online. For example, some landlords may only raise rent by a certain amount (like 4% in Jersey City). If things are generally inhabitable or very disruptive to your life then they are generally liable under the implied warranty of habitability or quiet enjoyment. Renter's court is a huge pain, but it is usually for small claims so sometimes it might be the best move b/c court costs won't destroy you.
I would never purchase my own fridge for a rental apartment as bepsf suggests... what are the chances the landlord will actually reimburse you for that expense?! Or argue that you bought a nicer/more expensive model that they would have gotten, that there was no prior arrangement made for reimbursement, etc. What a mess that would be (judging from my previous landlords).
Dear Bepsf,
Obviously...you're a landlord, and I'm guessing not such a stellar one. Have you ever had to have anything replaced while being a tenant? I agree with the "I'll get it fixed and send them the bill" idea in an ideal world. But honesty what tenant wants to be saddled with a fridge if the landlord doesn't reimburse (which is much more common and extremely easy on the landlord's side that you could imagine). Especially in Boston. How would I know? I have tenants! I fully understand the "gumption" approach to solving this issue and do somewhat agree. I would have hounded the landlord up to the point of obnoxious. No fridge? Unacceptable. But back off buddy. Not everyone has the financial room to purchase a fridge without assurance that it will be reimbursed.
Had that happen to one of my tenants last week. Repair company couldn't come for almost a week. I offered the keys to a vacant apartment so he could use the fridge in there. He refused but appreciated the offer. Hopefully this will never happen when I have a full house!
If the landlord is reasonable, then the wait for a fridge shouldn't be more than a day or two, and rent should be reduced that month according to the degree of damage to your food/ your inconvenience. If the landlord doesn't offer to reduce the rent, you can come up with an amount that feels fair and tell them, for example, that you're going to deduct rent for the days you went without a basic service that should have been provided. Most, in my experience, will just go along with that since they know it's pretty reasonable and they're not going to take you to court for a few hundred dollars. I think doing this keeps them honest and reminds them that you have the check-writing power in these situations.
As far as I know, there isn't any law in
Boston that states a landlord must replace a broken fridge within a day or something. I think as long as they are making a serious effort to get it replaced within a reasonable amount of time (a week is probably the LONGEST I'd consider reasonable for a fridge that is not working at all), and is willing to reimburse the tenant for the food lost and inconvenience (though I don't think they're obliged to, this should be covered by renter's insurance), the tenant should not get all up in arms. Generally I think if you approach people nicely rather than appearing that you're gearing up for a fight, it goes much better. If they don't respond well, then you can think about a fight.
I wish my rental kitchen looked like this one...
I recently moved into a new apartment and the unit came with an (older) washer and dryer - yay! Upon using the washer for the first time, it leaked water all over the tile floor. I called the landlord and he requested service; it was late on a Saturday, so the repairman couldn't come until Monday morning. By Monday evening, I was able to wash my clothes and did - no more leaking. Unbeknownst to me, the repairman wasn't fully satisfied with the repair and had ordered a new washer. I was pleasantly surprised when Home Depot knocked on my door the next Saturday and rolled in a new washer. Granted the lack of a heads up on the delivery by my landlord was odd, but I wasn't one to look a gift horse in the mouth. So far, this new place is working out just fine...
I have to disagree with the urgency of the problem of going without a fridge for a week. There a variety of situations in which it essential: a family with a new baby, and it was essential for keeping breast milk cold; a diabetic with insulin that must be refrigerated; a tenant/family on a budget, that can't afford to eat out for the next week. You know, like most of us. As a former tenant, that would have been unacceptable. As a current landlord, I'd never do that to a tenant.
Totally agree, however, on the the improvements and toys down the drain. I'll even reimburse if it's a true improvement, like a new thermostat, etc.
Nashville, TN, about 12 years ago, fridge died, landlord refuesed to replace, so we simply bought one. didnt bother w checking our rights. Until a few months later, the same landlord rented the entire house (was a large home-turned triplex) to a movie film crew. I was home w the flu when someone knocked on the door asking me to keep it down as I was messing w thier soundchecks. And they turned off the water. Only got worse. We sued. Turns out you cannot rent an already rented house! Worst landlord ever.
Our refrigerator broke down about a year ago. It was an intermittent problem where the cool air was not transferring to the fridge, only to the freezer.
But we're lucky on two counts:
1) We have an awesome landlord.
2) Our awesome landlord let my husband and father-in-law fix/diagnose it.
Granted, a free diagnosis is always wonderful. They were able to get it running, let the landlord know which pump was malfunctioning, and give us and estimated lifespan of the fridge.
Once the pump died, the landlord got us a new fridge with more storage (because it was the only appliance he hadn't replaced since 2008), and sold the old one to someone who could get and install the malfunctioning parts.
Our agreement has always been that in emergency situations, we call the landlord. If there are general issues, non-emergent maintenance requests, or just ideas, we email.
This may be a bit of a naughty situation, but if you're really desperate and want to mitigate your losses (food-wise), then I'd go out and buy a $100 small bar fridge/dorm style fridge so I could at least have some milk/eggs/cheese/whatever until I get a new fridge. Best case scenario, you can return the fridge a week later (buy it at WalMart and not a local mom & pop shop lol). Worst case, you have a spare little bar fridge for $100 just in case.
*naughty recommendation
I hate apartment repairs. I had a Denver apartment for 5 years, no problems. Then one winter the bathroom ceiling had this huge bulge the size of the tub. I called the emergency line & told them the upstairs pipe had burst, and they refused to do anything about it for 5 days since it was a holiday.
Then a week later my poor panicked downstairs neighbor pounded on my door-the same pipe system burst again, this time on her level and flooded her bed with scalding water while she was sleeping.
I demanded a rent reduction because I had been without the only bathroom for a week and a half in one month.
Their response? They evicted me since I was month to month.
This same thing happened to a friend of mine once. His landlord was away on a long weekend, and unreachable. The (old) fridge completely shut down. My friend tried to get someone to repair it and was told it wasn't repairable. So he purchased a new fridge, and took the cost out of the next months rent. The landlord was NOT impressed!
bepsf -- Your logic is way off, to say the least.
@hann12 --
No, I'm not a landlord - I'm a renter.
I also know that it's my responsibility to not allow an unresponsive landlord to mess with my life by delaying or ignoring issues that affect my comfort and well-being.
In the past 17 years I've been in my apartment I've twice had water leaks from faulty plumbing from the apartment upstairs (the first time resulting in all new carpets and one revamped bathroom, the second time resulting in the other bathroom being completely redone), a stove and refrigerator replacement, a new rangehood install, 2 garbage disposals, a wall torn out and repaired/repainted in the kitchen to replace old deteriorated drains, etc.
However, I've also replaced all the lighting fixtures and added/upgraded outlets & switchplates throughout the place, repainted my entire apartment (including doors and trimwork) 3 times, painted my kitchen cabinets inside and out twice and added door/drawer hardware, painted the floor of my balcony, replaced draperies and hardware, installed a customized wardrobe system and installed a keyless entry deadbolt system to my front door - at my own expense.
The way I see it - if the Landlord isn't going to make sure I have a functioning refrigerator so my steaks and Haagen-Dazs doesn't spoil, I'm not going to sit around for a week and watch hundreds of dollars worth of food rot when I can call Sears and have a new one delivered within a day. If I don't get reimbursed then I can take it with me when I move - My parents did the exact same same thing when they were in their mid-20's and they had that refrigerator in the various houses we occupied across the country for nearly 20 years.
bepsf -- LOL, wow. Are you actually proud to admit that you've invested so much of your own money into a property you don't own?
@ bepsf: you seem to be missing peoples' point. I don't have the money to buy a new fridge just out of the blue. A fridge --the cheapest fridge at Best Buy-- is half of my rent! Without reimbursement it would wipe out my emergency savings. Not an impact to just go, oh well, about.
And who cares if I can take it with when I move? 99% of apartments in my city already have refrigerators, which I would then somehow have to, what, store? At my own expense? Plus the added expense and hassle of moving a dang fridge every two or so years.
You've clearly been in your place for ages and plan to stay; most renters are not in that position even remotely, and that is why people think your response is unreasonable.
In re: "pay for it and deduct it from the rent"
Here in Chicago, a tenants' rights group advised me to only do so after giving at least two written notices to the landlord. If the issue went to court, you'd have to prove you did your due diligence to make the landlord aware of the problem, and that you also allowed for adequate time for a response. A matter of hours is not enough.
When I lived in LA the landlords didn't even provide refrigerators! It was the weirdest thing...you had to always get your own.
"Are you actually proud to admit that you've invested so much of your own money into a property you don't own?"
It's my home - Shouldn't I care how it looks and functions? Isn't that what AT is all about?
@tinystudio --
Many apartment buildings have storage rooms where they put old appliances, materials to renovate apartments between tenants, etc...
...and most houses have garages or basements - all these are places where the landlord's fridge can go if you have your own.
As far as folks not having at least a couple month's worth of paychecks in the bank for emergencies (IMO - a broken fridge is an emergency) Well, that's another topic altogether...
bepsf -
Obviously you've lived in your place so long that you take care of it as if it were your own. Nothing wrong with that. However, your problem is that you fail to realize that most people are not in your situation. Can you really not take yourself out of your own situation and see why what you said is wrong?
Most renters aren't in places longer than 1-3 years or so. Most renters are young and don't have any extra money to just go out and buy a fridge. To propose that idea as if it's normal just shows most of us readers how self-centered you are. Not everybody has the money to stock their fridge with precious steaks and haagen dazs ice cream! And most renters certainly aren't going to go out and buy a major appliance and say "oh well" when the landlord doesn't pay them back.
It's not all about you. MOST apartments dont have storage rooms at all, much less storage rooms that would fit a refrigerator. And MOST houses dont have basements, and MOST houses dont have room in garages to just stow our extra appliances, since we all just have tons of money to throw around on things we don't need.
And to make such an insolent and pretentious comment about people not having at least a couple month's worth of paychecks in the banks is totally unacceptable. Again, not everyone is as "fortunate" as you.
We've all painted a lovely picture of you as the pompous lady who looks down her nose toward those who arent as well off as her. Every additional comment you add only makes that picture more clear.
Sorry, bepsf, I have to agree with everyone else here. Buying a major appliance because you haven't heard back from your landlord within a couple of hours seems like it stems from impatience more than common sense. In Illinois, the landlord has 14 days to fix the problem before you're entitled to withhold rent.
This is one of the benefits of living in a boring, lack of character apartment community ... When my fridge died in the middle of the night with a full load of freshly bought food, it was replaced within a couple of hours. When I had a leak from an A/C unit at midnight, it was repaired within an hour. I also have a pool and a gym at my disposal. I love it!
my first apartment had the air conditioner slash swamp cooler system break, in the middle of summer. Took a bit over 48 hours to repair (the blower motor had failed), meanwhile I stayed in a hotel. They refused to reimburse.
Before anyone jumps all over my post saying how a/c is a luxury, this was in August, in Phoenix Arizona. The temp was 115 at the weather station at the airport, downtown it gets a decent bit hotter than that. A/C failing is absolutely considered an emergency. The heat? not so much. One night after 18 months of living in my second apartment there, I realized the heat didn't work. I bought a blanket. I let the office know but it took them a month to fix it.
Wow this is the first time I have seen anyone disagree with bepsf because I usually see people commenting that they agree with her/him. I strongly disagree that you should just buy your own fridge. That doesn't even pass the laugh test, in my book.
We've been over a month without the shower (here in Uk there are no electric plugs in the bathroom for safety reasons, but everyone has an electric shower, and that's the only way to have a shower): after the contractor called by the rental agency came and declared the shower "at risk of electroshock", it took a month to the lanlord to authorize the repair, to the contractor to find a similar shower (not to have to move pipes and electric cables) and to have the shower replaced. We complained, in written, and asked for a refund, the agency said we could use the bathtube (not taking into account that here there are 2 separate faucets for hot and cold water -so primitive, I know!- in the bathtube) so that the inconvenient was minumum(!). They also didn't let us call someone to replace the electric shower, because they wanted it to be done by their contractor. What should we have done? Take them to court?
Irs, I wish I could upvote you.
my former landlord once made me live without hot water....for three weeks..... in february....
@ales.ag - I'm totally confused by the idea of an electric shower. Can anyone explain?
I understand the inconvience of losing the freexer food, but I believe a simple colman cooler and ice would have saved most of the fridge food. I have expierenced massive power outages after big storms and this method lasted me 5-6 days without spoiling milk or eggs.
Anyone know where those stools are from?
@ embryoconcept: I'm totally confused by the idea of an electric shower. Can anyone explain?
Typical in the UK is that only cold water comes into the shower stall, and is heated on-demand by a large box with an electric heating element inside and a temperature control outside. This is probably what ales.ag means they're missing!
@Pythia - Thanks! I figured it must be something like that, but you never know! Sounds more efficient than a 40 gal. tank on the other side of the apt/house, certainly. Usually, in the US, only business and newer homes have that feature (according to the plumber).

Ever since we first started buzzing about who would play Christian Grey, Ian Somerhalder has been acting like he's got the role locked down. And even though Alex Pettyfer was cast by Gus Van Sant as Christian in his test film to impress producers, Ian is still acting like he's been personally handed the part by E.L. James. More proof: He wrote a vague tweet that sent Team Ian into a tizzy the other day.
The Vampire Diaries heartthrob updated his followers with, "bye-bye Barcelona- back to LA to break down the new movie with the one and only Ivana Chubbuck (my acting coach and guru)." In other words, his very own Elena Lincoln?!?! Ha! But seriously ... what new movie?!
Fans are gleeful that he means Fifty Shades. Sorry to be a buzzkill, but that just can't possibly be the case. As far as anyone knows, there is no "new movie" yet! Screenwriter Kelly Marcel hasn't finished a script, so there's really nothing any potential Christian Grey could possibly be "breaking down." Unless they were to be flying by the seat of their pants with some faux screenplay or stab-in-the-dark idea of what the script is going to look like. But what good could that really do?
More from The Stir: Ian Somerhalder vs. Matt Bomer as Christian Grey: Whose Team Are You On? (PHOTOS)
No, no. It must be that Ian is working with Ivana on another project. But that's okay. Any kind of coaching (especially with an older woman -- ow, ow!) will come in handy for his ultimate Fifty Shades audition. Any role he's able to take on that isn't Damon Salvatore will help him "expand his horizons," get some practice stepping into another man's shoes, and possibly get him even closer to owning the role of the BDSM-loving billionaire ...
What do you think Ian's next project will be? Are you rooting for him to play Christian Grey?
Image via CW
he certainly looks like he can handle the role, but then so do many others. It will be interesting to see the final results of who wins :)
everyone is ready for him to play Christian Grey. But in his tweet a couple of weeks ago..he did mention that he is going to be going to England for a movie..."
Packing-off to China!See you soon!ThenNY,Spain,Canada,Russia Hungary, Italy,France,Brussels, England(for movie)then back to NY then ATL 4TVD" so you tell me what movie he is doing...except for hi sTIME FRAMED movie...
not sure what he is working on but i have said it before and i will say is again IAN SOMERHALDER IS CHRISTIAN GREY!!! AND IF THEY DON'T SEE THAT THEN THEY ARE BLIND!! HE IS THE ONLY ONE THAT CAN DO THIS HE WAS MADE FOR THIS ROLE!!!! HOT SEXY BEAUTIFUL AND HE LOOKS WONDERFUL IN A SUIT!!! TO DIE FOR!!
Oh no please no! Matt Bomer is Christian all the way
When I started reading the books. Let me tell you, I have read all 3 so many damn times now! LOL I CAN see IAN being Grey. He IS Christian, inside and out! I pictured IAN being Grey since I picked up the first book and read it. He should take the role of Christian Grey, because he thinks he is becoming a hot known actor....guess what Ian?? You WILL be the talk of the years to come. :) TAKE THE DAMN ROLE and let's get the movie made already!
did u notice how buff he has gotten? he is getting ready for something! hopefully 50 shades!

Police authorities identified tuesday a parolee who allegedly robbed a West Covina credit union, then led officers on a vehicle chase throughout the San Gabriel Valley.
Jerry Lee Franklin, 39, of Whittier robbed the First Federal Credit Union at 2530 E. Garvey Ave. shortly after 10 a.m. Monday, said West Covina police Lt. Joseph Sevilla.
Police chased Franklin's white van first westbound, then eastbound on the San Bernardino (10) Freeway, then south on the San Gabriel River (605) Freeway into Whittier.
On a surface street, the van slowed to about 10 miles per hour and a woman believed to be Franklin's girlfriend grabbed onto the side and pulled herself into a rear driver's side window. Police identified her today as 36-year-old Yvonne Jeanette Farano of Whittier.
Franklin kept driving a short distance but came to a stop near Whittier Boulevard and Penn Street after police tried a PIT maneuver, Sevilla said.
Farano got out of the van and surrendered, but Franklin remained inside until a police dog was sent in. He scampered out of the vehicle with the dog biting at his pants as cash spilled out of the van onto the street.
Franklin was taken to a hospital to be treated for a dog bite, police said. An undetermined amount of cash was recovered, as was a gun that had been
tossed from the van during the pursuit, Sevilla said.
The gun was not used during the robbery, he said, adding that Franklin handed a teller a note.
Franklin was booked for robbery, felony evading, resisting arrest and a parole violation, Sevilla said. Farano was booked for robbery, conspiracy to commit robbery and resisting arrest, he said.
Franklin was jailed on a no-bail hold at the Twin Towers Correctional Facility in Los Angeles and Farano was being held in lieu of $50,000 bail at the West Covina jail, according to Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department online booking records.
Both were due in court in West Covina Wednesday, according to the sheriff's department website.

The Cowboys probably aren't going to make the playoffs. At 3-5 and playing horribly on offense, that's pretty obvious. A Week 10 loss in Philadelphia would seal their fate, however, while a win would leave the door of optimism cracked open just a bit longer. Here's what to watch. . .

Not quite as flavorful as I hoped - add more spice to the bean mixture before pureeing. Still, not nearly as heavy as most bean dips, since the corn, rice, and cilantro kept things fresh. Definitely needed more salsa in the layers.

World Wetlands Day 2007
Fish for tomorrow?
World Wetlands Day 2007
Message from the Secretariat
Will there be fish for tomorrow?
Fish for Tomorrow, our slogan for World Wetlands Day 2007, is one that touches almost all of us, wherever we live and whatever we do. One billion people rely on fish and shellfish as their main or even sole source of protein, and most of us include fish as part of our regular diet. Yet the current state of the world's fisheries is a matter of great concern. Most of our commercially important marine fisheries and many of our inland stocks are currently being overfished or are being fished at their biological limits, yet the demand for fish will continue to grow as the global population increases. The majority of our fishers are small-scale fishers: their livelihoods depend on making sure that there will be fish for tomorrow.
We hope that this World Wetlands Day will be an opportunity for you to look at local and national fisheries issues, and to make that vital link between healthy, well-managed coastal and inland wetlands and the long-term sustainability of your fisheries.
The potential solutions to the problems facing the world's fisheries are many, as our World Wetlands Day materials illustrate, and while some of them require international cooperation, many depend on national and local commitment. The true success of WWD and its outcome depend on that all important ingredient - the local and national 'flavour' that you can add to this year's focus - so that your WWD targets are well informed of the issues and their role in finding solutions.
We wish you a happy and productive World Wetlands Day 2007. Let's make sure that there will indeed be Fish for Tomorrow.

The Single Global Currency - Common Cents for Commerce
AbstractAs globalization continues, businesses are increasingly importing and exporting from countries with different currencies. To conduct that business, they must pay fees for exchanging one currency for another and they must determine the exchange rate for a particular time. If the transaction is to be conducted over time, they may purchase currency instruments to hedge against currency fluctuation. The costs of these tasks to such firms are significant. As an increasing number of international businesses understand that these expensive tasks are unnecessary for trade conducted within a monetary union, these businesses are likely to lead the effort to implement a Single Global Currency, to be managed by a Global Central Bank within a Global Monetary Union. In short, a "3-G" world. It's common cents. Much further research is needed to identify the benefits of a Single Global Currency and the steps and schedule necessary for implementation.

Some charges stemming from a major
drug bust in Burlington were tossed.
Burlington Police, the FBI, ATF,
U.S. Marshals and state troopers all took part in the raid on Spring Street
last March. Victor Allen and Maria Twitty were arrested.
But a judge ruled there's not enough
evidence to prove that authorities knocked and announced they had search
warrants before going in, which is law. Police believe someone did, but can't
recall who that was. So, charges against the pair involving the raid were
Allen still faces other drug charges.

I have heard stories about kids who turn into fanatical vegetarians because they learn about where meat comes from at an older age and it is too much of a shock to their world views.
I don't think I ever didn't know where meat comes from...
I had a funny thing about textures though--before I would eat anything, I had to know "Is it crunchy, or chewy?" I don't have many problems with texture now, though.
I confess that I'm going to my friend's wedding in Germany next month. :) I'll be staying in an apartment with two other mutual friends (plus one of their husbands). I'm excited. :)
It'll also be my first time away from Mia. I hope she does ok!
How fun Sarah! Mia will be fine. How long are you staying?
Just 3 days - arriving at the crack of dawn on Friday, wedding Saturday, leaving again Sunday night. I wish I could stay longer, but I have to be at work Monday morning.
Yeah, that's too bad. It'll be cool anyway!
I think i had duck once when I was in high school, before I really ever considered where my food came from. Where I am now I only eat standard mid-west farm food. Cow, chicken, pig. I actually have a lamb roast in the crock pot right now that dbf got from the organic farmer we buy our chickens from. I don't like lamb. It tastes bad to me.
My friend in Alaska only eats moose meat. Her and her husband and kids live on the side of mountain. They don't even have running water! Total live off the land hippies. I adore them. He built their house from trees he chopped down and literally brings home the moose. I've never had but I'm trying to plan a trip for me and the kids to go visit them so I'll try some then.
Gah, too much to catch up on!
First, Bridget, LOSE YOUR COOL. It's okay. No matter what your BF says when you lose it, you have EVERY RIGHT TO, and his behavior warrants you stuffing rocks up his nose and he should be **** happy you're GOOD ENOUGH not to do that for him. Grrr. I second Lydia, few people make me more angry than your BF. What does he think GOOD is? A woman who will just take his $hit? If that's the case, that IS what he deserves because you deserve far better. I wish, I wish, I wish, I could help you think of a way to change this. :(
Sorry about the death discussion guys, I know, it's a bummer. It is. No matter how you explain it. It really sucks that people die and that there's no resolution to that. Even if after death, whatever that entails (something or nothing or something in between) is lovely, looking at it NOW from our vantage point, it all just sucks. But I'm so glad Oscar is honest with his questions, and that I can be comfortably honest in my answers. Much easier than the freaked out fear I had as a kid.
I've eaten horse. Eh. Unremarkable. Dog was unremarkable, too (though seeing them stacked up behind a cyclo on a cart in China was disturbing, eating the meat was just a little blah). There's very little I haven't tried, though the unusual meats I'm not particularly fond of, just because I'm not used to them, I think. Though I have to say that Alpaca roast is one of the most divine things ever. If I can ever find another farmer who raises them for meat, I'll buy a whole animal. Goat, too, is excellent. Sea cucumber, however, is just stinking nasty. Like bits of jiggly pork fat.
Auto got his name because we got him at a strip mall while DH was buying a new computer at Best Buy. They were having a shelter-pet-adoption day next door at the PetSmart and we got him there. Sat outside the Best Buy waiting for DH and when I asked Oscar what he wanted to name the cat, he looked at the automatic door and said "automatic door." I said "okay, Auto for short?" and he said yes. So there you have it, sportsfans... :P
Yes, I think that's where the line is drawn for me too. If I see something as a pet, I can't see myself eating it. That said, I would probably try anything just to try it. I'm very adventurous when it comes to food.
And duck fat...mmm :wub: Crispy skin....:drool: Ok that might not even be a smily LOL
The restaurant I worked in last used to make its own charcuterie which includes smoked and cured meats such as cured duck "prosciutto". I think I ate more of that stuff than I served.
That's the biggest thing I miss about that place. Every day someone would walk up to me, hand me something different and yummy and say "try this". Gah.
I also quite like duck, but we don't get them very often here unless someone we know goes duck hunting, which happens not very often...
And crispy skin of any animal that's worthy is the best thing EVER. We recently made our own pork rinds (we buy whole pigs and this butcher sent me a crazy amount of skin) and they were sinful.
Speaking of crispy skin.. when I was still dating my ex, on Thanksgiving me, his mom, and his sister would always fight over the crispiest skin on the turkey. :) It's so good.
Seventeen replies later (sorry) - I think that connecting animals with meat is critical from the start. Children need to know where their food comes from. Oscar knows that our farmer friends (we know them and visit their farms) raise animals and we have them killed and butchered for meat. When he asks "what's this?" at dinner, he gets "this is pork, from our pig" or "this is beef, from Frank's cow." He gets it, and he knows some animals are pets or for laying eggs or giving milk, and some animals are killed for meat. Not knowing that is a dangerous disconnection, IMO.
We'd never kill one of his pets, or anything he was attached to, for food. That's cruel. :(
Yessss....turkey skin.... I could eat a plate of that, pass on the meat please. LOL
Too bad I'm going out for Mexican tonight! No crispy skin involved! Haha
Crispy chicken (and turkey) butts! You guys are killing me!
I'm making cheeseburgers and asparagus for dinner tonight. :)
And my favorite part, the tomato for the burgers. :) The ones I have now are actually starting to taste like a tomato!
All this talk of food is making me hungry...I just ate an apple and it didn't fill my tummy at all!
I love crispy chicken, I love crispy duck and pancakes from the Chinese take-away, I love cheeseburgers....lol
I might have to go get something else to eat....I'm such a bottomless pit at the minute!
Well apparently lunch set me off because I don't feel so good now :( Must stop reading about food...
One of my friends joined this FB group "Be kind to nurses. We prevent doctors from accidentally killing you."
I have no problem with nurses. They do a lot of the grunt work, and they stay with a patient a lot and keep up on a lot of labs and everything. But as someone who will potentially be a physician in about 8 years, this really bothers me. There are a lot of physicians out there who are wonderful. I'm so sick of them getting such a bad rap and hearing about how they don't know anything and they're ignorant and all that. I hear it a lot on here too and it bothers me so much. I don't want to go out in the field and automatically be assumed as someone who is incompetent.
I hope I don't offend anyone with what I just said. It just really makes me so frustrated.
ETA: I also want to add that when I was with my ex I lived with a nurse, and the amount of times she thought she had meningitis when she had a headache really pissed me off.
Nurses are no more competent than doctors. In my opinion, most PEOPLE, no matter their profession, are incompetent. Sorry to say that's my world view, but it is. I work with too many highly trained idiots to feel otherwise. :P
As much as I hated my microbiology professor as a teacher, I don't think I would mind working for him in a nurse/doctor setting. He was pretty funny and he is brilliant for sure, told it like it is and talked nice about nurses as well...he just crammed too much info into every test! LOL

Matthew Birt says:
British rider Danny Kent says he was satisfied with a steady rather the spectacular debut in the Moto2 world championship in Qatar on Sunday night.
Kent, who won two out of the last four Moto3 races in 2012, has found the transition to the heavier and more powerful 600cc Moto2 machine a difficult one and in Qatar a lack of front-end...

Puts last season into perspective I think, along with the criticism Smith got for his rides on the bike. His team mate was generally nowhere, finished 20 something and Smith was at one point in 7th and not many points behind Redding.
The two current riders, one of whom was right at the sharp end of Moto3 have been nowhere in testing and nowhere in this race.
Kent is a good rider and deserves a better bike than this. Unless it improves results look a near impossibility.

"I am lacking confidence with the power of the engine. In Moto3 you could go from zero to full throttle by just whacking it wide open but on this bike you've got to be careful because the rear comes round really quickly on you"
OK... this makes sense but why wasn't he doing track days on 600/1000cc machines to get used to this a year ago? It's what we've all had to get used to, even on the road... come the 1st race he should have already adapted to this so that he can concentrate on actually racing... he's playing double catch-up, firstly with the machine & then the racing expertise. It's difficult to practice for the move to MotoGP but there are plenty of bikes that put down more power than a Moto2 600 that he could have used to get up to speed on.
I've got high hopes for Kent as he seems to be learning how to race & has shown some real promise... this isn't the sort of statement I was expecting from him.

testing rules apply making it not happen anymore, and this kid was under contract to not test till released, try to keep up now. still has plenty of time to learn and understand the bike this year, and maybe herve will listen and try to get thsi minstrel sorted out for the riders,or rider, one thing does make sense but not the result from qatar is using cortese as an excuse finishing 17th and danny 18th, not really anything to go by first race but that said at least he finshed the race, smith binned this bike more than i can rememeber and im sure kent is having that in mind too.
KTM make a nice RC8 & several other bikes he could have used at track days without upestting any sponsors or breaking any contracts which could even have been used for some PR shots (like Rossi did on the 1198). He most certainly wouldn't have been the 1st GP rider to turn up incognito to a track day for a blast round on a Honda 600 or 900... just ask Ron Haslam!
Instead he states that he's struggling to come to terms with one of the basic priciples of adapting to larger capacity machines.
It's not me keeping up that's in question here...

Riding another bike isn't going to help at all.
Only time on the actual race bike at the actual circuit will help with that.
This is a very competitive class. If you ignore the top 2 - danny was only 33 secs behind 3rd place. Over 20 laps and 16 corners its a matter of 1 /10 th down at each corner. and he was only 15 secs off a top ten finish.
there is no way you can get to that level of commitment at a track day. you also need your peers there so you can judge how you are doing.
more race time on the bike is the only way.

Good point Hedgey - Kent seems under-prepared.
"there is no way you can get to that level of commitment at a track day."
Erm... the proposal was that he could get used to the fact that he can't snap the throttle open like he could on a Moto3 bike... instead of already being used to that he's having to learn it along with everything else... he says it's a problem... it's something he could easily have got used to before racing & very easily replicated at a track day.
I agree, he's done brilliantly in his 1st race for someone who's arrived in the series with little preparation... think where he could be if he was just learning the 600 rather than having to reprogram his brain to handle bigger bikes.
how is he under prepared ?
the room for improvement is very small - a tenth here a tenth there. He is very very close to top 10 pace and he will not get any better riding around on a second rate test bike on trackdays.
in effect his times are so close to where he needs to be that he can only get there on the race bike.
you guys seem to think that he is some numpty who has never riden a big bike before so he should have spent some time on a 600- he is a GP winner, and his comments need to be taken in context, he may be light on the throttle, but its boils down to being a fraction of a second here or there.
maybe he should have got a courier job over the winter , that would have helped too.

18 Amazing Liquor Bottles You'd Buy Just For The Bottle
Packaging is an effective and powerful part of a brand's marketing strategy, but sometimes packaging becomes a bit more than that. For many liquors, the bottle that holds it can be as much a reason to buy it as the drink contained within — Absolut Vodka is a brand that comes to mind. And sometimes, the bottle itself can become the object of desire…and even a collectors' item. Whether rare, luxurious, aesthetic, or otherwise interesting, here are some of the most sought after bottles money can buy.
This one-of-a-kind crystal Lalique decanter was commissioned by the famed Speyside distillery to be crafted using the ancient "cire perdue" method (also known as the "lost wax" method) and holds the oldest and rarest Macallan single malt ever bottled. It sold at Sotheby's for a whopping $460,000 in 2010, making it the most expensive bottle of whiskey ever sold. Largely thanks to that final price, 36 other bottles of the same single malt were later sold for around $16,000 a piece. So, in effect, at about $450,000 you could say this is the most expensive bottle ever sold.
The Bombay Sapphire Revelation collection featured just 5 Baccarat crystal bottles designed by Karim Rashid, with the diamond and jewel decorated caps supplied by Garrard. At $200,000 per bottle, the entire collection was worth a cool $1 million, though they were shipped to 5 separate cities across the globe (New York, London, Dubai, Sydney, and Singapore) to promote the brand with proceeds going to the smile train charity. The purchaser of each bottle would also receive a year's supply of Bombay Sapphire gin.
Louis XIII Cognac is at the very top of high-end cognacs. It's a unique and rare blend of liquor aged between 40 to 100+ years in the Grande Champagne region of France. Though normally the brand goes for around $2,000 per bottle, this limited edition "Black Pearl" is listed for 4 times that amount. The bottle may look like steel or silver, but it is in fact a uniquely colored Baccarat Crystal that reflects and refracts light like no other bottle before.
The premium vodka brands are getting into the fancy bottling racket as well, it seems. Ladoga created this classy Venice glass decanter design for their Imperial collection inspired by Faberge eggs and detailed with 24-karat gold trim; open the egg to reveal the bottle and 4 cleverly mounted shot glasses within. The "eggs" comes in a variety of colors, each suitable as a lovely collectors' piece for any Russian vodka fanatic.
According to Crystal Head Vodka's website, 13 crystal skulls have been found throughout the world and they date anywhere from 5,000 to 35,000 years old. The truth is, none of the skulls made available for study presented anything that would suggest they were manufactured any earlier than the 19th century. There is still some dispute on those accounts. Regardless, this is one of the more popular non-traditional bottles you might find in your neighborhood liquor store. And for under $50, it's a bit more accessible than some of the above bottles. In fact, if you aren't interested in the liquor inside and prefer the package instead, eBay has them going for just about $10 a piece (plus shipping).
If you have some time to learn about the legend behind this bottle, you'll discover a story line like no other. But it's the bottle itself that I'm most interested in. The pictures simply don't do it justice. From the front, it looks like a figure (man) attempting to escape the bottle. Turn it to the side, however, and the figure follows you until he disappears completely (from the side). It's an impressive and creepy holographic trick that certainly fits the narrative. I'm sure the vodka is pretty good, too…
This Armenian brand takes its bottle designs very seriously. La Collection features a number of hand-blown glass bottles representing a number of animals including a bull, a horse, and an elephant, plus a few guns, a sword (with sheath), a menorah, and a lady shoe. Definitely a brand worth collecting just for the unique glass work alone.
The first time I saw this bottle, I wasn't sure I was in the right place… Is this a liquor store or…? At a closer look, it became clear it was simply two liquors in a single hand blown crystal bottle. Milagro produced the above bottle to celebrate 2 complimentary styles of tequila:
"The 3 inner chambers are filled with 100% Blue Agave Select Barrel Reserve Anejo, each chamber representing a year of its aging to maturity. The outer chamber is filled with 100% Blue Agave Reposado aged to perfection for 9 months in oak barrels." – Source
The bottle below, however, is another piece of art that also happens to contain tequila. The hand-blown bottle features a tequila plant within for a breathtaking visual experience.
Keeping up with the tequila theme, this bottle is designed after a handgun and contains an ironically smooth tequila from Hijos De Villa. Along with the Crystal Head Vodka bottle, this is one of the more common non-traditional bottles you might be able to find locally and is also quite easy to find on eBay (sans liquor).
There are a number of other cool gun shaped bottles, but this one from Kalashnikov vodka takes the cake. It's the realistic gun case and included dog-tags that sells it, really. Not that the bottle itself isn't great: it even stands up on the butt of the gun nicely without it (though I wouldn't display it that way long – it's still too tall), but the realistic case gives it that final detail for the full experience.
Medea Vodka has done something truly remarkable with their bottle design that we find impressive. The LED display can remember up to 6 messages of up to 255 characters each. It's actually more advanced than Twitter! The batteries last about a year, according to the website. Just check out the video below for more info:
At first glance, this bottle may look like the Bombay Sapphire Revelation design. And while it's far short of $200k, (retails around $70), each bottle does come with one of 5 precious stones in the cap. It's the poor man's version of Revelation, but a vodka by Jewel Lines.
This Russian made vodka, called Samurai, features a bottle design that's clever in a minimalistic sort of way. It appears as though the bottle was cut in half by a samurai sword, and stands that way. Simple, aesthetic, and clever.
This bottle, inspired by the Mayan culture, appears to be a stone replica statue and contains an unknown brand of Anejo tequila. Even though we don't know much about the brand, one look at this unique bottle and I knew I needed to include it on my list anyway.
Pshenychnaya is another vodka brand that's explored non-traditional shaped bottles. This time, instead of glass, the bottles are made from porcelain and painted to match the design more accurately. Along with the car (above), this brand also has an AK-47 design, though it's not nearly as aesthetic.

I never knew so many specialty bottles existed for some of those brands. From the marketing perspective, do these 'payoff', or is their creation more of a celebration expense?
On another note, this must have been fun to research!
I know exactly what you mean! My Boyfriend's Mother purchased a 2ft Tall bottle of Tequila that was in the shape of a Tommy Gun, and it was the smelliest most disgusting tequila I have ever had! this company must be doing well based on the bottle, as it certainly is not for the taste! Also, there is a Russian Vodka that sells it's mediocre vodka for no less than $100 a bottle. They sell it based on the fact that it is distilled with diamonds (which does nothing), mean while you don't get a diamond in the bottle or anything just a glass mold of one on the bottle. It truly amazes me what people are willing to spend money on for glass! Great post!
In the Big Bang Theory season 6 season finale they were in a liquor store. There was a monster/gargoyle head bottle on the shelf any ideas of what it is. I can not find out anything from searching for it.
One of the bottles you left out was manana tequila.
I have an unopened bottle kings ransom blended scotch. It has to be at least 70 years old.what do you think it's worth.
One of the most unique bottles that recently came out is the Flashbang Tequila bottle. It is a replica of an M84 grenade and actually opens by pulling the pin to let the handle fly off. It has won tequila awards and tastes really smooth for 100 proof. Only comes in a 50ml though. I would love a bigger one. http://www.flashbangspirits.com
I have two unopened, four chamber bottles, ( four different liquors), by Marie Brizard & Roger. The only date on the bottles, is the est. in 1755. they look pretty old. Can you give any info on them? I've been searching everywhere!!
Shirley, That date is the date the company was founded so I highly doubt that it is quite that old, although if it is, you are a millionaire and dont know it
Great find — Lady shoe Bottle Design can you tell me the History of the bottle and the Value
the hispanic statue bottle is from LA COFRADIA Brand Tequila as a part of the Prehispanic Brand. http://www.tequilacofradia.com/demo/productos2.php?tipo=prehispanico

Whats the deal with String Theory?

Originally posted by Mentat
I find this odd (though I must confess that you're making sense), since Michio Kaku (one of the strongest supporters of String Theory) has always described it as the next step that Einstein had been trying to take, but couldn't. He (Kaku) always says that String Theory is just like Relativity, except that it requires more dimensions. Now, of course, I know that this is an over-simplification, but I didn't know that string theory was trying to negate GR, in it's attempt at unification.
despite rather many interruptions I want to continue pursuing this thread
here is the link I promised to Enrique Alvarez "Loops versus Strings"
the article is interesting and credible for several reasons
he is actively engaged in string research
(around 16 string/brane articles since mid-1999 show in arxiv, you can check in arxiv to see how much they have been cited by other authors---compare e.g. Kaku zero articles since the one in mid-1999 and that one has been cited only once, according to the arxiv citation-bot)
the article is recent----mid 2003
the article was an invited talk at the mid-2003 HEP
conference at Portoroz called "What comes beyond the standard model?"----that is, other HEP theorists want to hear what Alvarez has to say
the guy is senior and broadly knowledgeable----so capable of doing an intelligent overview and making a useful string vs loop comparison
CAVEAT: his viewpoint (and that of his HEP audience) is very
UN-general relativity, his perspective is HEP/QFT/string. So you dont get a relativist perspective. I cannot vouch for his article
beyond mentioning the circumstantial evidence that he seems to be senior, currently active in research, and respected.
Mentat, the situation in quantum gravity is currently exciting, the picture is changing, the split between General Relativity and the relativists on one hand and the (far mor numerous, almost mob) of string/braners on the other is fascinating, or so I find. It points to a deep division in the foundations of physics concerning the nature of space and time (this is what "background-independence" is about---and the problem that string-thinking doesnt have it). So these things are IMHO very worth trying to follow, even enlightening, maybe historical in some sense.
I dont know of any other 2003 article of the "Loops versus Strings" overview/comparison type from the string side! This
Alvarez one is all I could find! So I offer it to you or anyone who wants to follow the action, to look over.
But on the other hand there are quite a few recent overviews of developments in quantum gravity from the loopers or, to put it more clearly, the GR people involved in quantizing GR.
Smolin has a 2003 paper called "How far are we from a theory of quantum gravity?" which has been extensively cited, to mention just one, and Rovelli even has this book "Quantum Gravity" in current draft form at his site.
I will get some links for these things, and also check the arxiv bot to get citation numbers for some current Ashtekar, Smolin or Rovelli work---it is an interesting quantitative measure of how important or useful a research paper has been---I've mostly been judging by the citations I see in other papers I happen to read, a partially subjective assessment which I believe is also important to make. Bear in mind that QGR is a small field and the numbers are small, but there seems to be a shift underway (in science a small active minority can sometimes bring about change)
Oh BTW you mentioned the fact that, while GR appeared in 1915, Einstein spent much of his time in later life working on a unified theory of other stuff besides gravity. The essence of the 1915 GR is its background-independence---you dont specify a static spacetime geometry ahead of time but let the geometry be dynamic and variable. I DON'T KNOW if Einstein's later efforts at unification retained this essential, and new, view of space and time! He may have given up and gone back to some fixed background approach like "special" relativity. Today's particle/field theories (QFT, Standard Model, whatever) are fixed-background.
My GUESS would be that Einstein would have kept to the dynamic GR spacetime and tried to bring other forces besides gravity into the picture which as we know is very hard and would help explain why he met with frustration. In effect that line of effort is only just beginning to get results and make testable predictions! So what you decide, on a verbal level, to call a continuation of Einstein's project is kind of subjective and depends on how detailed a picture you have of
he was trying to construct a unified model.

It's been 5 years since Pantene put out a magical commercial that transcended what most imagine a commercial should be. To this day, I still watch it from time to time just to get some inspiration. Yes, it's a touching storyline, but more importantly from a marketing and advertising perspective the way that they set up the "money moment" at the end when you see the glowing air flowing in artificial wind was pure brilliance.

Scams: Too Good to Be True
Be careful when you're hunting for deals online -- poeple are eager to scam you with offers that seem great but don't pay off in the long run.
Recession Mama Michele Ashamalla: While looking for a place to stay in New York City for an upcoming vacation, I ran across an ad for a two bedroom Midtown apartment with a couple of lovely photos. It was advertised for the bargain price of $120 a night. I emailed, indicating my interest, and I received a quick response. The apartment was in a building with an elevator and a doorman (and here's the kicker) was quite spacious -- 1600 square feet. I knew it was a scam right then. I've spent plenty of time in NY and knew that either that a 1600 square foot apartment was Manhattan-adjacent (like in Delaware) or nonexistent. The seller was willing to give me a break on the price -- $300 for three nights, but needed a $500 security deposit by MoneyGram.
Umm, right. My brother-in-law asked if it needed to go to a relative's in Nigeria. I replied that I was sure I would get a supply of free Viagra with it. (If you're not aware of the above scams, you must have a really, really good spam filter ...) I joked about the listing with friends and tried to report it to the authorities, but the posting had been taken down.
Unfortunately, many people, lured by a great deal, send hundreds and thousands of dollars to crooks like these who disappear with their money. The Internet makes it hard to track people, so most of the con artists get away with their scam time and time again. Be smart. Check things out. Looks for ratings and reviews on people you do business with and businesses you patronize. Do not send money to strangers in a way that cannot be recovered or contested. Be suspicious of the offers that seem too good to be true -- because often, they are.
A former state deputy attorney general and current stay-at-home mom, Recession Mama Michele Ashamalla has three kids and ten years of experience stretching one salary to cover the necessities and more. She's all about saving money whenever you can, so you have it to spend on whatever you want!
it is truly sickening the number and types of scams i've heard about online!
for a recession mama you spend alot of money IMO
