Dear, sweet, intelligent, articulate, very happy, Internet savvy, English speaking, domestic Bird had fallen hopelessly in love with charming and versatile Charlie Too. Bird emailed the handsome Palm Cockatoo in New Guinea. But he could not read English.
When no reply to her email was received, Bird, rejected and despondent, no longer rejoiced in speaking her favorite English phrases such as "Hi, there", "Bye-bye", "Why are you doing that?", "Oh, no", "Don't go there", and "Uh-huh".
Constitution Day is September 17th.
What fun! Crafters are coming to the library! Squeaker loves people, and creative people are the best. September 8th was Buckner Branch's first Village Crafters get together. Mary Beth demonstrated making yarn out of old T-shirts. Everyone brought along the project they were working on, and there was a great show and tell, including lots of ooh-ing and ahh-ing over the beautiful things people were making. Knitting, spinning, plastic canvas, beading, and sewing were represented. We shared some great information about sources for materials and places to shop.
My name is Peyton and I've worked at the Lone Jack Branch for a little less than a year now! I've always loved reading, and have enjoyed getting to know many new books via Mid-Continent. Here are five books I love.
Sad books make us happy?
In July, I introduced myself to the readers of our blogs as "The slowest reader in America". I thought, maybe, I should give you an update on what I'm reading now. While, yes, technically I'm still working on the books I mentioned in my earlier post, I also have a couple more that I am excited to start reading.
Discovering Your True Colors
Do you have a favorite color? What does your choice of color reveal about you? With the onset of winter and darker days, color becomes even more important to us.
An optimistic, library clerk at a local MCPL branch directs a forlorn and frustrated customer to the Mango Languages Research Database, and give the family's lovesick, exotic bird a new lease on life.
If this story had ever reached the press, that is exactly what the headline would have read. It is the story that Bird tells everyone she meets.
Bird was completely content to sit upon the shoulder of any family member, hour after hour, surfing the net, day after day.
Am I joking? Is The Interrogative Mood: A Novel? really a novel? How could a book be composed entirely of questions and still be a novel?
Being Frugal
It seems like everyone is looking for ways to save money these days. I recently read an online article that gave spending tips from frugal billionaires. There were nearly 5700 responses to the article within two hours.

Ticket Info
Annual Easter exhibition of modernist and contemporary works depicting the missions and moradas of New Mexico, with prints, paintings, drawings, and photography. Artists include Morris Blackburn, Howard Cook, Lucille Leggett, Ralph Pearson, Craig Varjabedian, Theo White.
In addition to a great selection of modernist works, this year's exhibition features the work of contemporary photographer Craig Varjabedian, who's Morada Photographic Survey earned an award from the National Endowment for the Arts. Varjabedian's association with the Penitente Brotherhood also lead to the publication of an award-winning book and a PBS documentary that won an Emmy.
A unique culture of northern New Mexico and southern Colorado, the Penitente Brotherhood is a lay confraternity that arose after Mexican independence in 1821 when Spanish missionaries left the area. In the mid-nineteenth century, the region became an American territory and the Penitentes were compelled to continue their practices in private. And so their meeting houses arose in discrete locales, with their humble forms echoing their pious intentions. Varjabedian's quintessential photographs subtly convey the evocative spirit of these structures with within their powerful landscape settings.
The village of Chimayo's history of fervent devotion extends back centuries. A number of images in the exhibition come from the area of Chimayo, which to this day remains a pilgrimage site, especially during holy week.
This exhibition runs from March 29 through April 27, 2013, Mon–Sat, 9:30am – 5:30pm.

The perfect pair for your little fashionistas. If you dress your best in summer, why should your tiny tots be left behind? Flaunt them on your baby's feet and be prepared to get complements galore. The best accompaniment for any white or multi-colored dress. It would make a one of a kind baby shower gift too! A double layered sole makes it sturdy. Two pairs of snap buttons on the ankle strap make it adjustable for a custom fit.
Finished sizes of soled are used for gauge. Use any size hook to attain gauge.

A friend asked me if I could make a dog sweater. I thought about it and realized that I hadn't made my beloved, patient,
cat, Obi (means heart in Igbo, sash in Japanese), any annoying intrusive human or cuddly cat things. This hat is the 4th thing made in 4 days, beginning with a bed and followed by four decorative collars.
Obi has been very giving about allowing me to put on the hat.
Could also be New Year's or Party Hat.

Lashon Hara (Hebrew: לשון הרע), literally means "Evil tongue", is the Halakhic term for derogatory speech about another person. The sin of lashon hara is considered to be a very serious sin in Judaism.
The term lashon hara is mentioned in Psalm 34:14:
" נְצֹר לְשׁוֹנְךָ מֵרָע; וּשְׂפָתֶיךָ, מִדַּבֵּר מִרְמָה."
"Keep thy tongue from evil, and thy lips from speaking guile."
The act of gossiping is called in Hebrew rekhilut, and is also forbidden by Jewish law and it is mentioned in the Torah, Leviticus 19:16-
" לֹא-תֵלֵךְ רָכִיל בְּעַמֶּיךָ, לֹא תַעֲמֹד עַל-דַּם רֵעֶךָ: אֲנִי, יְהוָה."
" Thou shalt not go up and down as a talebearer among thy people; neither shalt thou stand idly by the blood of thy neighbour: I am the LORD."
The Rabbis note that the universe itself was created through speech. Of the 43 sins enumerated in the Al Cheit confession recited on Yom Kippur, 11 are sins committed through speech.
The Talmud tells that the tongue is an instrument so dangerous that it must be kept hidden from view, behind two protective walls (the mouth and teeth) to prevent its misuse.
In Jewish law, all things are considered to be secret unless a person specifically says

UPDATE: Name Of Pilot Who Survived Plane Collision East Of Cascade Released
July 07--One person died after two small planes collided in midair about 30 miles east of Cascade Monday morning, according to Boise National Forest officials. The name of the victim, a pilot, won't be released until family has been notified.
The other pilot in the collision survived without serious injury. She was identified Monday afternoon as Amy Hoover, a 52-year-old Ellensburg, Wash., woman.
The fatal plane crash occurred about 2.5 miles south of the Landmark Airstrip. The pilot and sole occupant of the plane died at the scene. The Valley County coroner has recovered the crash victim.
Hoover, who was also flying solo, was able to land. Early reports indicated that she landed the plane at the airstrip -- but an update from forest officials corrected the location of the landing. It was a grassy area about 1.4 miles southeast of the airstrip. Hoover was taken by air ambulance to the hospital in McCall. She was treated and released Monday.
The collision between the American Champion and Cessna occurred at about 8 a.m. Monday. Because of the remote location, it took a couple hours for rescue personnel to reach the planes, according to Boise National Forest spokesman David Olson.
Boise National Forest sent in firefighters via helicopters to put out the small fire, about a tenth of an acre. Others who were dispatched: a Forest Service firefighting crew, an engine and and law enforcement officer, four Valley County deputies, Cascade Ambulance and Cascade Fire Department.

I thought that ALL the kids on Idol were off last night. But that's okay because Blaise won Top Chef All Stars and my Carla won FAN FAVE! HOOTIE HOO Carla, HOOTIE HOO! The woman who would tell her food how much she loved and thanked it before serving it to the judges. Now that's MY kind of cooking! Cannot wait to meet her which I hope will be soon. She's right outside of DC and is good friends with my friend Ariane, so, we'll see. Now, speaking of good friends….my really, really, REALLY close and good friend, the uber cool Sadie Nardini, Founder of Core Strength Vinyasa Yoga and co-conspirator on a line of yoga dvds we're still trying to find a home for is vying for the coveted cover of Yoga Journal magazine. I am her biggest fan and advocate as well and am asking you to vote for her too (link below!) Heads up (or should I say 'head stand?') this will not be the last time you hear this plea since we can vote once a day until we get her that cover, so, spoiler alert…..here, now, the link with my advance gratitude, blessings, and big giant LOVE!http://talentsearch.yogajournal.com/view/630
And don't forget that Shuistrology (Feng Shui + Astrology = YOUR best life ever!) goes to subscription tomorrow. Because it's going to be managed by an email company, Sarah, my Art Director asks that I ask your patience. For this first month all of the email addresses will have to be input or uploaded by hand so it may take a day before you see your April Shui. But, then, every month after that you will automatically receive your SHUISTROLOGY in your inbox on the first day. If you sign up after the 1st day of any other month but April you will not receive the unedited version of your horoscope and empowering advice until the first day of the following one. Hope that makes sense!
So you can spend the weekend reading your new April astrology right before you begin making your Treasure Maps at the start of the Aries New Moon on Sunday! As for all old maps you can keep them or you can dispose of them, it's up to you. I like to store them somewhere out of sight so that I can refer to them and be all wowza and wonder at how many of the agendas I've intentioned come true. Now, remember, I have a super secret symbol for your maps that I'm going to be gifting and sharing here on Sunday, so, c'mon, that's even better than marshmallow peeps…well, almost anyway.
Now, once you make that map (you should try to have a GOOD portion of it composed by the time of the following Full Moon on April 17) then you should, or so says Feng Shui, keep it in the FAME arena, a space devoted to your vision and your projections for your future. I keep it in the FAME gua of my main floor but that same place in your bedroom will work equally as well. If you are unfamiliar with the energies and areas associated with our other treasure map, the BAGUA, you can go to my website, www.ellenwhitehurst.com and hit that corresponding link to get all the info you need.
That said, Feng Shui shares that using the FAME area in this way will tap into your right brain as well as your creative awareness and that those energies alone can aid and abet all intention to effectively and positively influence your future.
Just so you know, there won't be ANY lacrosse images on my map at all this year! Ahhhhhhhh, that's all I have to say is ahhhhhhhhhhhhhh. Okay back to the map. Now, written goals can also be placed either on this map OR alongside it (like a list of 9 of them, written in red ink and reviewed daily) especially if you are a good grasshopper and place it in FAME. But, without question, besides some secret symbols that will grace the map with some extra added oooomph, the single BIGGEST trigger or activator of the energies and intentions represented is …. YOU! The WHOLE point of this visual board is to REMIND you, often, to visualize and put yourself in the position that you have recreated on your map.
Want a baby? SEE yourself in the maternity ward, easily and effortlessly giving birth. And see that same thing a thousand billion zazillin times a day. New job, new spouse, new opportunities or new house? You know what to do. BELIEVE! And then believe some more. This is the SINGLE MOST POWERFUL time of the entire year to put these efforts into place, so, screw that damn Lion in March…..and just say this…….
Sunday….Treasure Map…the mane event.
And don't forget to subscribe to Shuistrology tomorrow! As usual, I'm perfectly positive that you'll be glad that you did!
ONWARD into April! No fooling! ONWARD~ XOE

Crown vs Utica vs Weil-McLainHi,
What are the pros and cons of each and which is the 'best'?
Gas residential boiler, 150k BTUs, direct vent connected to indirect hot water heater.
Am I missing anything?
So many bad reviews on all three but I'm gathering that many have problems because of bad installers.
What are your thoughts?

What model?Also, as you have stated, 98% of the time it's the installer's fault but the appliance gets blamed.Bob Boan

Only 98% of the time?All three of those makes are excellent.
Virtually all of the bad reviews you will see -- not only of boilers, but almost any consumer-reviewed product -- are either installation problems (by far the most common) or stem from unrealistic expectations on the part of the consumer -- sometimes fed by unrealistic claims by the installer.
Bottom line: as has often been said here, if you are getting a new boiler installed (or an old one repaired!) you are really buying the installer, and his or her ability to do the job right. The best boiler in the world will misbehave if installed by a knucklehead, but some of the geniuses who write on this Wall can get pretty much any old teakettle to purr like a kitten. You get what you pay for.Jamie

Totally DisagreeDunkirk makes some very solid products and I've personally seen them go out of their way to correct issues caused by installers that weren't their responsibility.
Your other post says that you were "locked out of this site". Could it be because you take cheap shots like this one.Bob Boan

InstallersThe low bid might be the most expensive job in the long run... Find a reputable contractor to install the boiler, because the installation details will cost you a fortune over the long run, both in corrections and in extra fuel consumption. My experience agrees with other opinions here that most of the problems with and after boiler change-outs are installation related, particularly for steam systems due to mistakes in near boiler piping, failure to correct other problems which haunt the new boiler and significant changes in water capacity which are not compensated for in the condensate control system.
Just my $0.02 worth...

Utica?DunkirkIt's the same boiler, different names. Utica makes great boilers, I have been installing their cast iron boilers for over 20 years, and I have a few of the newest SSC series high efficiency boilers installed. Quality and customer support is outstanding. It'll cost a lot more than the cheapest boilers, because it's a great product.
Thanks, Bob Gagnon

Guess who's gonna need a bigger Pelican Case?
Email Us / Check my Portfolio / Follow me on Facebook / Follow me on Twitter
As I mentioned last week, I don't really do Christmas and I really don't expect any presents from anyone. But what I didn't mention was that I love treating myself with a nice new lens every once in a while.
Let me introduce the latest addition to my kit. (I'm talking about the cute piece of glass in the middle.)
So, this blog won't be called "A life at 85mm" but you are about to see a lot more photos shot at this focal length.
Oh, and for those who know a thing or two about aperture, that baby opens at f/1.2, so if you think I had a pretty shallow depth of field before, you should hang on to your boots because backgrounds are about to get very very blurry.

At Sea Behind the scenes - by Brice Ferre - Vancouver Photographer from Brice Ferre Photography on Vimeo.
Ever wondered how it feels like to do 90 Km/h on water?!
I never did, but I actually figured it out the hard way.
A couple of years ago, I was working on a project here in Vancouver, filming boats between Jericho, English Bay and the Vancouver Harbor.
The easiest way to film some of the boats was to ride on one of the rescue zodiacs during the patrol.
And this is what happens when a boat capsizes at the other end of the bay and no one knows if the skipper has surfaced yet.
The life guard, yells: "hang on to something!!!" and then floors it with no other warning. Those who know me are very much aware that I don't miss an opportunity to film or photograph, so I grabbed the boat with one hand and filmed with the other.
This is by far one of the most brutal experiences I have had to go through while shooting. Feeling that you are going to fly off the boat anytime.(This footage has not been sped up, it's the actual speed)
Everything is fine until you pass the Lion's Gate Bridge and then the boat starts flying…
Good thing Pelican cases are made for this type of adventures.
I have a shoot tonight and I've been asked to bring a long lens…
Here is what I'm taking with me.
I have 400mm (70-200mm + x2 extender) attached to my camera, that should do the trick. Those who know me, are well aware that this blog is not called "a life at 50mm" for nothing. So that should be a nice change for me.
I also made sure to add a monopod to my kit, as I don't want to hold that thing all night.
I'm not telling you what (or who) I am shooting yet, but you should see some photos here in the next few days.

While I am not a Christian, there is more to Shoebat's message than the religious message that he is delivering. He has a unique insight into the world of Islam and Muslims. Having been a former member of the PLO, and actually having participated in terrorist acts, he disabuses everyone who pays attention to what he says of the notion of a moderate Muslim, or of the notion that Islam is a religion of peace.

Orthofix International N.V. Stock Upgraded (OFIX)
- OFIX's revenue growth has slightly outpaced the industry average of 5.3%. Since the same quarter one year prior, revenues slightly increased by 2.9%. Growth in the company's revenue appears to have helped boost the earnings per share.
- Looking at where the stock is today compared to one year ago, we find that it is not only higher, but it has also clearly outperformed the rise in the S&P 500 over the same period. Although other factors naturally played a role, the company's strong earnings growth was key. Turning our attention to the future direction of the stock, it goes without saying that even the best stocks can fall in an overall down market. However, in any other environment, this stock still has good upside potential despite the fact that it has already risen in the past year.
- The net income growth from the same quarter one year ago has significantly exceeded that of the S&P 500 and the Health Care Equipment & Supplies industry. The net income increased by 133.6% when compared to the same quarter one year prior, rising from -$35.80 million to $12.02 million.
- Net operating cash flow has significantly increased by 160.74% to $48.97 million when compared to the same quarter last year. In addition, ORTHOFIX INTERNATIONAL NV has also vastly surpassed the industry average cash flow growth rate of -6.03%.

Data Updates
Keeping you up to date on the latest data releases.
September 2014
- 03.24.2010
- New Home Sales
- The pace of new single-family home sales weakened further in February, declining 2.2 percent to a 47-year low of 308,000 annual units. The drop was pervasive in all regions of the U.S. except the West, which saw a 21 percent increase. January's report was revised upward, from an 11.2 percent drop in sales to a still-weak 8.7 percent drop. Year-over-year growth slipped from −4.3 percent to −13.0 percent in February, and since recent months have seen nearly solid declines, shorter-term growth looks even shabbier, at −24.5 percent for the past six months. The estimate of new single-family homes for sale in February came in at 236,000, representing a 1.3 percent increase over January and 9.2 months− supply at the current sales rate. After peaking last January at a whopping 12.4 months, the months− supply relaxed slowly to 7.3 in October but has been on-the-rise again ever since.

Live music at a freeway rest area
I learned today that some of my blog readers missed my blog posts when I fell a week to ten days behind. Learned by hearing from them by phone, e-mail and Twitter.
Sorry, readers. Yes, I have fallen behind, and yes, Diane and I are OK. Thank you for asking. I'm working now to fill in the back entries.
I also learned today that we will be hauling freight later this month further north into Canada than we have ever been before. Learned when we received and accepted that load offer.
After that delivery, we will be over 1,000 miles from the nearest U.S. city where freight can be reasonably expected to be found. It will be OK financially because there is enough money in the load to get us back to a U.S. freight center while still making the run profitable. We would not have accepted the run if that was not the case.
This run means putting great faith and reliance in our truck. A breakdown that far away from a Volvo dealer would be a big problem. Truckstop showers are not likely to be easily found on the remote route. The shower and other creature comforts in our big sleeper will be put to full use.
I don't talk much about our run details in this blog and do not recall ever talking about a run in advance. But the freight is what our carrier calls "freight of all kinds" (FAK). It is ordinary freight. There are no security protocols attached. We have a lot of flexibility with the delivery date.
I'm talking about it now because we are excited about this run. It will be a new adventure into new territory. It will also dominate our run acceptance strategy for the next week. We need to be at a certain place the week after next to pick up this load. Load offers we entertain next week will be considered with the Canada run in mind.
We're going to a place where our Minnesota accent will be viewed as a southern accent to the locals. The coming week will give us time to brush up on speaking Canadian. Sounds good, 'eh?
• We woke up this morning at the freeway rest area on I-79 in Kirby, Pa. We moved there yesterday to be closer to Pittsburgh and improve our freight chances. A load offer came in this afternoon which we accepted and immediately rolled on. The load will deliver on Monday morning, giving us an easy weekend to complete about 12 hours of driving.
• One last thing: I saw something at a rest area today that I have never seen before; a live singer.
This is one of the nicest rest areas Pennsylvania has. The newer building features a little museum about coal mining and coal miners. There is also an area for exhibits. Today's exhibit was a photo contest. Photos taken by young people were on display. Visitors were asked to vote for the one they liked best.
Our truck has an RV style bathroom but the more we use it, the more we have to service it. When there are easy alternatives, that's what we use. When I came through the door to use this easy alternative, I was surprised to see a smiling woman with a guitar standing in the lobby, singing away, and filling every corner of the hard-surface rooms with her strong voice and guitar music. From the signs that were posted, it was clear that she was a sponsored act and was there with the approval of whoever manages the rest area.
So what do you do when you need to use the rest room, enter the building, find yourself alone in the lobby, except for a singing woman and an attendant seated at a table next to her; and that woman makes direct eye contact with you while continuing to smile and sing?

text: While I haven't gotten there myself (too much coverage, too little time to play), I wasn't surprised to see a familiar screen pop up before the game started, as you can see in the image above. I don't know just how bad the level is (in terms of violence, morality, or whatever the Activision developers working on the game could cook up), but it's there. Be ready to be disgusted, taken aback, and to hear complaints for awhile from self-righteous parents and videogame violence advocates.

Topic - NEW ARTICLE: Kendal Speaker Profile: Chris Sharma
UKC Articles - on 23 Oct 2009
Chris Sharma will be at the Kendal Mountain Festival on 19-22 November. Mick Ryan gives us a brief profile of Chris.
" I can remember bouldering with the Brit, Jerry Peel from Lancashire at the Peabody boulders in the Buttermilk Country home to such Sharma milestones as the Mandala. Jerry spotted Sharma bouldering over at the Grandma Peabody and was dying to meet him. We walked over, introductions were made, I think I introduced Jerry as one of the John Gill's of UK bouldering, and they posed for photographs together. Jerry was as pleased a punch."
.......and Björn Pohl finds out what Sharma thinks of bouldering and routes these days.

Since pairing up, we've released a few movies under the nineLegends banner (nineLegends being firstly Oivind's competetive gaming team, but secondly a loose affiliation of friends who play games together) including but not limited to (!)
nineLegends: Origins

which was a compilation of 4 years worth of tournament highlights and

[video] Quick Take: S&P 500 Could Hit 1,850 During 'Santa Claus Rally'
NEW YORK (TheStreet) -- The S&P 500 could hit 1,850 by the end of 2013, according to Keith Bliss, senior vice president of Cuttone & Company.
Bliss said the S&P 500 is not yet overbought, according to his firm's quantitative and technical models. Near the 1,860 level is when the S&P 500 begins to get ahead of itself, he added.
So although there are only three trading sessions left in 2013 following the close on Thursday, he suggested it wouldn't be unlikely for the index to tag 1,850 by year's end. He added that when volume is light, which is typically the case during the "Santa Clause Rally" -- the time between Christmas and New Year's Day -- it is very easy for price action to get overdone.
Bliss added that the rally should continue into 2014 as well. Money should begin to flow into the stock market in the beginning of the year, known as the "January Effect."He concluded that both institutional and retail investors will likely be buying U.S. equities since stocks were the best-performing asset in 2013. -- Written by Bret Kenwell in Petoskey, Mich.

I have this habit of thawing or defrosting things from the freezer a couple of days before I actually cook it. That's because I don't like the water-soaking technique on frozen stuff. I also detest room temperature defrosting so I usually defrost it inside the refrigerator.
Today, after my early self-inflicting pain (scheduled myself for my annual flu shot), I went home and rummaged the kitchen for something to whip for lunch. Lo and behold, I found 1 chicken breast, 2 small slices of liver and a small square piece of pork prolly from the previous dishes I cooked. The good kind-heart-ed alien inside me said "there are many unfortunate people in this world who cannot afford to eat a decent meal, don't throw your food away". And I was like, "Hoowkey?! So what will I do with all these pieces of different meat?
Make a noodle!
Lads and Gents, before anything else, I would like to say sorry to my Malaysian/Singaporeans/Chinese readers because I almost ruined your famous Char Kway Teow. This post should be with that title but I'm too ashamed to even call this dish CKT! (face palm!).
A few days ago, after following Spicytones food blog, I decided to make Char Kway Teow. I found the flat rice noodles in the supermarket but couldn't find Tofu. The noodle craving had been set aside until I could find Tofu in this so provincial place called Petah Tikva. And today, with all due respect to this amazing dish, I decided to make it with my raw meat leftovers. No, I didn't include the liver because I thought it will be too much and too mushy (and too shameful).
So, a bit nervous and at the same time hungry, I soaked my rice noodles in a deep bowl of water and waited for it to get softer. 20 minutes after, my rice noodles were still hard rice noodles (again, face palm). There are so many stressful things in this world!!. Anyhooo, I decided to cook the rice noodles in boiling water and cold rinse it. It turned out fine and I was able to make my fake CKT.
- 250 grams dry flat rice noodles; should be soaked overnight or you can soak it in lukewarm water for I guess, 1 hour or until soft.
- 50 grams of bean sprouts
- 50 grams cabbage; supposed to be Chinese cabbage; thinly sliced
- a handful of celery; chopped
- 4 cloves garlic; chopped
- about a 1 and 1/2 cup of cubed chicken breast and pork meat
- 4 tbsp. soy sauce
- 2 eggs
- 1 tbsp. spring onion; chopped
- 1 tbsp. chili paste
- salt and pepper
- a bit of hot water
- a tsp. of sesame oil
1. Cook your flat rice noodles in a pot of boiling water until soft. Drain and cold-rinse with tap water. Drain well and set aside.
2. Prepare your big deep wok by heating a bit of olive oil. Throw in your cubed chicken and pork tidbits. Season with a bit of salt and pepper and cook on high heat for about 7-10 minutes or until pork meat is tender enough. Transfer to a plate and set aside.
3. Using the same wok, on high heat, heat 2 tbsp. of olive oil. Throw in your garlic when your oil is steaming hot and saute (or shake the wok) until golden brown. Add chili paste and mix but take a bit of precaution because your wok is too hot. Add your soft rice noodles and stir fry it until well coated with garlic, chili and oil.
4. Add soy sauce and mix well by shaking your wok continuously. Add the cabbage, celery, bean sprout and cooked meat. Mix well with 2 wooden spoons and shake your wok from time to time until everything is fully incorporated. Add a little hot water if it's too dry.
5. Drizzle with sesame oil and mix. Make a small well in the middle and crack in the eggs. Wait for the eggs to be slightly cooked before mixing it with the noodles.
6. Season with salt and pepper to taste. You have to be careful with your salt because the soy sauce is salty enough but you can be generous with your pepper. I love noodles with lots of ground pepper.
7. Transfer to a serving dish and garnish with spring onions and serve with lemon wedges.
I know there are jaws that dropped way too low because of what I did to this recipe but, believe it or not, it's EFFIN' DELICIOUS!!! If you are looking for authentic Char Kway Teow, then this recipe is not for you. Authentic Penang CKT main ingredient is shrimps and not chicken or pork meat. It can be with Tofu too if you want a pure vegan noodle. But nevertheless, my experiment turned out delicious and I enjoyed it very much. The only consolation I could give to our dear Malaysian friends is … I ate this with chopsticks … for about 3 minutes … Well yeah of course, I ate the rest with the super convenient fork because I noticed that I could not pick a single noodle thread with my chopsticks.
I hope you'll give this a try or make your own because this dish is to versatile that you can throw in almost everything. Thanks Panyang for bolstering me that I didn't mess up this dish at all. *whispers "She finished a big bowl of it and asked for more, shhhh".

Post subject: Car battery question
On Tuesday night I realized I'd stupidly left my lights on all day and my battery was dead. I used jumpers, and plugged into the new car of a friend, for at least 20 minutes. Nothing.
Then I had a final to deal with so stopped thinking about the car, and drove Mr. Go's instead. Today I called Triple A and they showed up with this little box, and jumped my totally dead car in about 2 seconds flat.
I asked why it was better than jumpers, and he said that new cars don't jump cars well b/c the computer in them sends a blocking signal so as to keep it in good running order. I don't know if that's a load of crap or what, but I'm sure Mr. Triple A guy knows far more than I on the topic of cars.
Point here is, that box costs about $109. I'd love to get one so if I ever do this again (and since this wasn't my first time leaving my lights on, it's a distinct possibility), I could take care of it myself.
Which of the car-lovers (jrjo, I'm looking at you) can tell me what that little jumper box of magic is about?

I don't know the age of your car but I think the newer cars have automatic shut offs for lights so the battery does not go dead.
As for the little power box thingy. If you look around you can find one for a better price than $ 100+. Try Sears, Pep Boys, or any other car parts store. The advantage is you can use it as a power pack in case of a power failure. Bad news is you have to keep it plugged in and charged at home. What if your car "dies" at work ?

I have one of those, and the fricken thing didn't work. MIL bought me a whole bunch of car things one year (a box with flares, jumpers, flashlight, a few other goodies in it) plus this long black & yellow thing that would supposedly restore my dead battery. It didn't work when I needed it, and I'm not sure why.
If you get one, I hope you have better luck with it.

If Ranger logs in, we'll get the definitive answer, but I think those Rescue Jumpers bolt out like 500 amps, where as regular jumper cables carry a whole lot less. If your battery was absolutely dead, short of a full recharge, which can take 12-hours on a charger, it's no surprise it took 'the box'.
Yeah, they're great for a rescue, so maybe worth the cost. Another thought I had was if your car has accessories like the clock, auxiliary lights and such that stay on all the time or extended periods after the car is shut off, draining the battery, you might want to consider a trickle charger. Small solar ones are pretty cheap..$30. They sit on your dash, plugged into the cig lighter while the car is off and continually top off the battery.
I'm not sure on that blocking signal with the computer. Nowadays, "the computer" gets blamed for all kinds of car probs.

We bought one at Sam's for about $100. It can charge in your home or it can charge in your car. (We bought it for a cross-country trip)
That thing ROCKS!!! It saved my lunch on at least three occasions. And it holds its charge for quite awhile. (At least three months in one case)
The beauty is, if someone needs a jump on a freeway/other dangerous place, you don't have to maneuver your cars nose to nose to help them out.

More and more everyday objects – from automobiles to refrigerators and thermostats – are gaining the ability to communicate via sensors that connect them to the Internet and make them smart. While the Internet of Things holds unbelievable promise, opportunity, and excitement for consumers and companies alike, it also poses some challenges. Bringing a connected device to market can be complicated, and designing products and scaling businesses that are at the intersection of physical product and digital experiences is no easy task. We brought in a diverse group of experts to discuss these challenges and more at a recent Smart Salon entitled "The Agony & Ecstasy of Connected Devices: Tales from the front Line," at Smart Design's San Francisco studio.
Panelists included:
Renee DiResta, Principal, O'Reilly AlphaTech Ventures
Kevin Lee, Director of Product Strategy and User Experience, Samsung
Mikal Greaves, Co-Founder and VP, Product Development, Play-i
Sean Murphy, Director of Design Engineering, Smart Design
As moderator of this group of experts, we engaged in a lively discussion around the challenges associated with creating meaningful connected products – and all four offered a number of best practices and practical considerations for companies of all shapes and sizes.
You can read about some of these challenges and considerations in three recent articles in Fast Company – Is Your Smart Device Dumb?, The Four Biggest Barriers to Connecting Everything and How to Pitch Investors on a Connected Device.
Please check out our full discussion here:
The San Francisco Salon followed a similar one held at the New York studio in late October, which focused on business considerations for connected devices, big data and predictions for the future of IoT. A third Salon on connected devices is expected in the first quarter of 2014 in London. Stay tuned for more details.

text: OSHA's hazard communication requirements for construction employers mirror the general industry regulations. The Hazard Communication Standard (HCS or hazcom) is intended to ensure that employers make their employees aware of the hazards to which they may be exposed. This is accomplished by having a written hazard communication program that addresses how they will communicate hazards to their employees, by using labels and material safety data sheets (MSDSs), and by having a training program. Hazcom is one of the most important and also one of the most frequently violated OSHA standards.
