AUSTIN -- Efforts by officials in Arlington and across Texas to push legislation allowing police roadblocks to snare drunken drivers are facing an uphill challenge as the 2013 Legislature nears the halfway point.It's not the first time. Sobriety checkpoint bills have died in every session of the Legislature since 1995.While advocates on both sides of the issue embrace the goal of reining in drunken drivers, the proposals have traditionally collided with arguments that police roadblocks could lead to racial profiling, maddening traffic tie-ups and improper detainment of innocent motorists.This year, supporters say they hope to improve their chances by including safeguards aimed at preventing law enforcement abuses while citing what they say is an urgent need to combat drunken driving. Legislation written by Sen. Wendy Davis, D-Fort Worth, contains features designed to prevent profiling and would require law enforcement to give advance notice of the checkpoints."All I know is we have to get these folks off the streets," Arlington Mayor Robert Cluck says. "It's no good the way it is now."Arlington has made the measure one of its top legislative priorities. In each of the past two years, alcoholic-related car wrecks in Arlington claimed 14 lives. In 2010, seven people died as a result of drunken-driving fatalities. The number of nonfatal Arlington car wrecks involving alcohol has climbed over the past three years, from 421 in 2010 to 456 in 2012.Cluck said he has been pushing for sobriety checkpoint legislation for several years, citing statistics showing that checkpoints have reduced drunken-driving deaths in the nearly 40 other states that have adopted the measures. In a 2008 report, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration said sobriety checkpoints resulted in an overall 20 percent downturn in traffic fatalities."Every time, I think the numbers justify it and I think the Legislature will do it," Cluck said. "But every time, I've been disappointed."Davis, whose Senate District 10 includes part of Arlington, said she has seen signs of movement toward the measure. "I got really close last session," she said, recalling that she was "one vote shy" of advancing the measure to the Senate floor in the 2011 Legislature.Asked about the chances for passage in 2013, Davis said, "I'm not really sure." But she added: "I do think there have been enough high-profile drunk-driving incidents that I hope members will understand the need for these checkpoints."One formidable opponent is Sen. John Whitmire, D-Houston, dean of the Senate and chairman of the Senate Criminal Justice Committee. "I don't think we need to require all law-abiding citizens to go through a contact point with law enforcement without probable cause," he said.Whitmire recalled going through a sobriety checkpoint in Louisiana last summer. "It was not a good experience," he said. "We were not drinking. You've never seen so much law enforcement in your life. ... It was such a fiasco that the locals had their lawn chairs out on the side of the road watching it all. The biggest show in town.""I don't say all that to minimize the importance of not drinking and driving," he added. "I believe intense police work will go a long way toward fixing that problem. And we do have very strict sentences."Allen Place of the Texas Criminal Defense Lawyers Association, which has traditionally fought against sobriety checkpoints, says the group opposes the concept of detaining motorists "without any sort of probable cause.""There are other ways to enforce existing law than to make impositions on everybody who's out driving, trying to get to work, trying to get home," said Place, the association's government relations director.Leading advocates include the Texas Police Chiefs Association, the North Texas Crime Commission, the Greater Dallas Injury Prevention Council and Mothers Against Drunk Driving.Not optimisticBill Lewis, the Texas public policy director for MADD, engaged in the fight for sobriety checkpoints in 1995 after his daughter was severely injured in a head-on collision with a car driven by a drunken motorist. She has since recovered, but Lewis, 68, has continued to press the issue, despite perennial defeat in the Legislature.Lewis acknowledges that he's "not terribly optimistic" about the bill's chances this time, but he cites earlier polls showing that more than two-thirds of the public support sobriety checkpoints as a deterrent to drunken driving. "We'll try to stress to the members of the Legislature that there is still a lot of support for these bills," he said.Keller Police Chief Mark Hafner, first vice president of the Texas Police Chiefs Association, said checkpoints would give law enforcement "another tool in our toolbox to identify, detect and apprehend people under the influence."Davis introduced the latest version, SB1418, last week, one day before the deadline for filing bills for the 2013 Legislative session.The measure would require law enforcement agencies to post notice of the roadblock no later than three days in advance, providing the date, time and location of the checkpoint. The selection of the roadblock must be made "without regard to ... the ethnic or socioeconomic characteristics of the area in which the checkpoint is located," according to the bill.Officers would also be required to ensure that the selection of vehicles to be stopped "is reasonably predictable and nonarbitrary," a provision designed to prevent random stops. Inquiries would take no longer than three minutes unless an officer found probable cause to believe the motorist had been drinking.The bill would also impose a 10-minute maximum on the length of time for a motorist to go through the roadblock.Dave Montgomery is the Star-Telegram's Austin bureau chief, 512-739-4471Twitter: @daveymontgomery

What Is the Proper Way to Rate Your Hearing Aids?
It used to be that rating your hearing aids was relatively simple because there were only a couple of choices. In today's day and age, there are literally hundreds of styles to choose from and finding the perfect solution can pose quite a challenge. Ratings can be based upon technology, pricing, available features and your individual lifestyle. If you take the time to prepare yourself ahead of time, the decision will be that much easier in the end.
Begin your search by rating how advanced their technology is. The more advanced technology will be able to provide you with a much clearer level of sound, not to mention they are a lot more comfortable for the user to wear. One of the biggest issues is that they have trouble hearing speech over the noise in the background. Due to the recent technology advancements, users will have an improved level of hearing and be able to differentiate between the noise in the background and what the person is saying.
In the end, rating the technology all boils down to how much technicality there is in the hearing aid, how many features are available on the unit and how well will the unit be able to control different listening situations. Most of the hearing aid companies are able to make a hearing aid that compares to their competitors in terms of technology. Some of the highly advanced units will be able to offer you Bluetooth technology, artificial intelligence, recognition for various sounds and wireless features to name a few. When you start looking into the top models you can expect to spend upwards of $7,000 per pair, which can prove extremely beneficial if you are using all of the features that they have to offer.
Take a moment to consider what type of lifestyle you are currently living when it comes to choosing your hearing aid. This will help you determine exactly what features you are going to need and which ones you can live without. If you live a relatively quiet life with limited social gatherings, you will probably never end up using all of the features that the highly advanced units have to offer you. Before making the decision on which unit to purchase, decide how active your current lifestyle is. You can plan on replacing your hearing aid every five years or so. With that being said, take into consideration how active you think you are going to be over the next five years.
Hearing aid technology tends to be presented at various tiers: high, middle and low end. Depending on what features are available in each tier, you may notice a difference in how well you are able to hear in different situations. If you are someone who spends a lot of time at home, lower level technology may be the perfect solution for you. However, if you are the type of person who spends a lot of their time in an environment that is extremely noisy, you may want to consider one of the higher level devices. Sometimes you may be right in the middle, which is when you can take advantage of the middle level hearing aids. It doesn't matter where you fall in because there is something for everyone when it comes to hearing aids.
Don't just rate your device by the size or what it looks like. It's what you find on the inside of the hearing aid that matters the most. You can get the technology you need in any size or shape, so make sure that the technology is at the forefront of your mind before making the final decision. Make sure that you discuss your likes and dislikes with the specialist. This will allow them to help you find the perfect hearing aid to meet your needs. Once they know what they are looking for, they can help determine which style is going to work for your degree of hearing loss and your anatomy.

Last week, Treasure Fingers dropped a wobbly, club monster in the form of Honey Dip. While he reigned supreme for years at that top of the 'nu-disco' field, it appears he's since disavowed his affiliation with the glazed genre and shifted efforts to making some manic house tracks, and we really couldn't be any happier. Today, we're premiering the Sluggers remix of said track. After gaining a bit of momentum with releases on OWSLA and Fools Gold, the Miami duo are quickly carving out a name for themselves. Enjoy their free download of Honey Dip below, and get hyped to hear more from these new kids on the block.

Recognized as "the new sound of Miami," the mysterious SLUGGERS are quickly emerging with their fresh style that has won them releases on OWSLA, Slow Roast Records, and now Fool's Gold. Today, they've released two stand out tracks, "Courtesy" and "HYPR," that serve as their membership to the Fool's Gold Clubhouse. In celebration of this latest offering, the SLUGGERS have put together an eclectic, high-energy mix that runs through a spectrum of rhythms with tracks from the likes of Amtrac, Ballast, Worthy, Astronomar, and of course, some of their own original cuts. Enjoy the mix below and find the tracklist, as well as their Fool's Gold Clubhouse release, after the jump.
The newcomers on the OWSLA block Sluggers just premiered their video for the EP single 'Turbo Fade', and it is not for the faint of rave. The heart-racing blend of techno and stabbing house is complimented with an equally edgy visual story thats suggestive and intense… But we love that. Fans of Boys Noize, Mumbai Science and Destructo will be on point with this one. Check the video out above, and pick up their 'Phantom Fade EP' out now on OWSLA!
Sluggers on
Back once again with the 129th installment of The Dirt with Troy Kurtz & Three Wise. We're covering all the bases this week with some tasty new snacks courtesy of our friends over at Main Course, an energized remix of Beyonce, as well as Kastle's impressive rework of Drake which is nothing short of class.

Staff were just so courteous and friendly all the time. Location is great, close enough to the bus station and surrounded by bars and restaurants. Takes like a 3 km walk to Ephesus, which is pretty good since the archeological site is quite far away from everything else. Everything else worked fine, clean, secure. Would definitely recommend.

Loved the location of the hotel as well as Jimmy the owner and Ferhat who run and manage the hotel day to day. The breakfast every morning overlooking the patio was wonderful! The location is ideal as it is in the heart of Selcuk. Jimmy couldn't have been more helpful about the best tours and places of interest to visit. We had a great stay.. if you're looking for a hotel that is affordable and clean with great service..this is it. It is not uber luxurious and is not 5 star. But 3 stars

Report: Rielle Hunter Wants Paternity Testby Free Britney at . Comments
As if Elizabeth Edwards' book tour - one seemingly designed only to humiliate John Edwards and Rielle Hunter - the former presidential candidate's furious mistress is demanding he submit to a DNA test, according to National Enquirer.
NOTE: Before discrediting this report based on the source, do recall that it was this very celebrity gossip tabloid that broke the story of his affair - and the possible love child that Rielle gave birth to in February 2008 - in the first place.
When Edwards finally came clean regarding the affair last August, he said the father was his former aide, Andrew Young, and Hunter declared that there would not be any paternity testing on her daughter, Frances Quinn. Quite convenient.
But now, the Enquirer says she wants proof that John Edwards is the father of her 14-month-old love child and is working with a lawyer to take legal action.
The blonde divorcee, 41, has been derided as pathetic in the new book, Resilience, written by the ex-senator's cancer-stricken wife, Elizabeth Edwards.
Rielle's sudden move to determine paternity is a clear signal that she is no longer willing to protect the philandering politician, according to sources.
Having been thrown under the bus by Elizabeth Edwards in her new book, an enraged Rielle Hunter is apparently trying to take John Edwards down with her.
Edwards is also the subject of a federal investigation into the possible misuse of campaign funds in payments made to Hunter's "production company."
"Rielle - probably naively - now realizes she had held onto a false promise that if she continued to take part in the cover-up John had engineered, they'd be together in the future," a source close to Hunter told The Enquirer.
Of the likely fabrication that Andrew Young is the father, the source adds:
"[Rielle Hunter] was willing to protect John for the sake of the child. She agreed to allow a crony of his to claim publicly that he is the baby's father, and she even kept the name of the father blank on the birth certificate."
"But now she can see there's never going to be a future with John - and she feels he's lied about his promise to keep Elizabeth from trashing her in the book."
"Rielle is so infuriated by his and Elizabeth's actions that she's throwing her loyalty to him out of the window! Rielle wants the paternity of her daughter Frances finally established. She knows it could ruin John for good."
Ruin him how? Quashing a third presidential run?
Seems like he's pretty ruined as is, but why not pile it on? He's still probably lying about the child, after all, and we'd hate to see him get away with that. Seriously, who cheats on their cancer-stricken wife while running for president?
Think a small part of Elizabeth Edwards is loving this right now?
Lisa Druck played John Edwards for a sucker AND HE FELL FOR IT LIKE A TON OF BRICKS~ Druck is past 40 and wasn't interested in having children until BIG BUCKS JOHN EDWARDS CAME ALONG AND WAS SUCKED IN BY A SLUT! Now Druck has big sucker John Edwards right where she wants him AND SHE WILL HORN IN ON ELIZABETH'S FAMILY TO TAKE AS MUCH AS SHE WANTS.JOHN WAS SUPER STUPID AND DRUCK IS LAUGHING ALL THE WAY TO THE BANK. SHE WANTS THAT DNA TEST AND SHE WANTS IT NOW!
Rielle Hunter (aka Lisa Jo Druck/Hunter) had a bit part in a film...she played a trashy whore in the movie 'Overboard' :-) When Goldie Hawn's character gets injured and goes missing, her philandering husband picks up some trashy, slutty women to dance around half naked on his yacht. Wonder if that's where she got her inspiration...talk about life imitating art...okay, so maybe not art ;-)
John and OShrop are absolutely right. How does John Edwards not take most of the responsibility for his actions? He was arrogant enough to cheat on his ailing wife. He should step up to the plate and take the paternity test and be a man and not the weasel he has shown the world he is. The innocent child is the one who gets hurt in the end. And unfortunately, if the child turns out to be his then Elizabeth will have to come to grips that she (the baby) will be a part of John's life if he does the honorable thing and takes part in her life.
It is amazing to me how all the blame for this affair falls on Rielle Hunter. If Mrs. Edwards wanted all this noise stop all she had to do was not write the book. Here's the simple truth....IT TAKES TWO for a affair to take place. All Mr. Edwards had to do was say NO. Just like most liberals....blame it on the other person. Mr Edwards didn't know what he was doing. He was in a weakened state...Bull...I blame him more then Rielle...He's the whore!
Elizabeth is using her husband's affair with Rielle to sell copies of her book. How pathetic is that? Elizabeth criticized Hillary for her decision to stand by Bill, yet finds herself in the same position. Don't believe she made the decision for her children's sake -- if she put her children first, she wouldn't have included the affair in her book, and go on a promotional tour to criticize the mother of her children's half sister. John is no prize. He should stand up and be responsible for his youngest daughter.
Rielle Hunter is a tramp plain and simple. You don't go up to a man and say, "you are so hot" without wanting to get laid! John fell for it and then a child, mayby his. Like Elizabeth said on the Oprah interview that affair and possible child is part of his life, not hers. She is dying of cancer and her children will be without her. She is trying to move forward with what life she has left with her family. There is time later for a DNA test and John to have some kind of relationship with that child if it is his, if he so wishes. Rielle wants to hurt Elizabeth more by demanding the test now. Retalliation for the book being written. Mrs. Edwards has every right to express her feelings. If it gets under Rielle's skin being called a groupie and pathetic, well if the shoe fits wear it!
Lisa Druck aka Rielle Hunter is 45. Surprising she got pregnant at all.
The Rielle(Real) Hunter is a Gold digger,
a woman who associates with or marries a man chiefly for material gain. As you all continue to discuss Lisa Druke's lastest pay day story from the National Enquirer. I think you all should remember these important
John and Elizabeth Edwardsa have been married for 31 years.
They had four children together, three are living, and one, recently, died. Elizabeth Edwards has stage 4 cancer.
Any decent human being would not have inserted herself
into their lives, and then sold stories about them to the National Enquiererfor monetary gain.
Lisa Druke, a.k.a. the Rielle (Real) Hunter fills me with disgust. I hope someday to never hear anything about her again. By the way, whose fault is that the Rielle (Real) Hunter does not know who the father of her child is?
I don't think she is 41.

What's chicken salad about?
re: Sue in Mt P
Actually, both questions. Is there something special, traditional, regional etc. about chicken salad served at luncheons? What's the difference between the Episcopalian and Eastern Star versions?
When I posted that, I was thinking about the teriyaki chicken plate lunch fundraisers that Japanese-American churches in California are known for.
re: Melanie Wong
I doubt you will find much difference between one version of chicken salad and another.
re: Sue in Mt P
Thank you, I am curious how the difference is price is justified. Maybe one gives you a dessert or something.
re: arbyunc
Now arbyunc, you know those nice ladies are fund-raising for their cause. You would go to both, right?
And yes, I'm envious of the trip too.
re: arbyunc
I'd certainly welcome someone to drive me or ride shotgun! Come one, come all, c'mon over to Edenton (drop me an email, address in my profile).
The hard part is that I want to stop at Weeping Radish on the way to Edenton from Nags Head. It doesn't open until 11am on Friday, and then I have more than an hour's drive to get to Edenton. On Saturday I'm tied up with judging through the lunch period and probably until about 2 or 3pm. I'm gonna have to prioritize my lunch choices, and I don't think I can miss the pig pickin on friday. I'm thinking of stopping by the chicken salad places and asking if I can pay and reserve a lunch for pick-up on Saturday after the HogFest.

I can not comment on your issues but I find it so delightful to see your on the SouthEast
site since I fondly remember you as a lengend with Chowhound in the SF Bay area
I recently(10 months ago) left Berkeley to move to Asheville, NC
You really should visit here -it is so much like Berzerkley in so many ways
I never thought I would leave Berkeley and settle in the South
But this is a great place to retire
re: mustardgirl
Hi there, mustardgirl, thanks for the kind words. And I recall when you'd be posting on both boards, and had wondered what your situation might be. Tonight my Charlotte friends (whom I've known since I was a child and then we all went to UC Berkeley together) asked me if I'd be heading to Asheville because it's just like Berkeley. Unfortunately, not this trip, but some day.
In case anyone is headed to the festivities today. I arrived in Edenton yesterday and tried the St Paul's chicken salad lunch. It is a sit-down affair.
The plate is brought to your table. It includes chicken salad, pea salad, homemade sweet pickles, Smithfield ham, warm roll and butter, ice tea, and lemon bar served on real dinnerware. The recipes are in their recipe book, Take the Tour for the Taste of Colonial Edenton.
I tried to find out how this spread differs from the $7.50 Eastern Star luncheon. Eastern Star includes a cupcake and deviled egg and its served on a paper plate.
I missed the pig pickin yesterday cuz I was given the wrong directions. The volunteer sent me out to the fairgrounds. The American Legion was selling BBQ plates and I thought that was the event. I got to talk to the guys who made the barbecue and see their pit.
In previous years they'd chopped and pulled the meat by hand, but that was too much work for the volunteers. This year they borrowed a couple of pig picking tools to pull the pork butts.
And here's the sandwich, $5, with slaw.
They said the sauce looks darker than usual because it was all cider vinegar instead of a blend of white and cider. It also has brown sugar, "butt rub", salt, and other secret ingredients. Taste was very black peppery, and plenty of smoke influence, though the meat was rather stringy in texture.
Later I did find out about the pig pickin' in town and dashed over there before 3pm, but already sold out. The crew said they'd take care of me today, so hopefully I'll get to try their handiwork too. They did cook a whole pig, a smaller one because of the size of the smoker, and supplement it with some extra butts.
re: Melanie Wong
On Saturday, the American Legion hosted the People's Choice for the whole hog contest at Hogfest. The competitors' whole hog meat was served up to 100 lucky people who were quick on their feet to buy a $10 ticket for the privilege.
Winding up the balance of eats associated with the Pilgrimage for future reference:
I caught the end of the fish fry luncheon hosted by the Fannie A. Parker Woman's Club. Potatoes were already sold out, but more than enough slaw and fried catfish left to put together a fine plate. Too bad I wasn't the slightest bit hungry to enjoy it more. Thick filets of catfish, greaseless golden brown coating. Peppery cole slaw, not too wet and tangy sweet pickle note.
The fish fry was set up in Colonial Park on the water. Leon Nixon Catering took care of the food and I heard from a local that his BBQ is standard in town. Nixon also has a buffet a couple days a week at Nixon Family Restaurant. Here's the view from my picnic bench.
Saturday morning I grabbed an early breakfast sponsored by the Rotary at the high school. Normally I don't eat before judging BBQ but for some fruit and juice. But these pancakes were so light and fluffy, there was room to spare. The $7 breakfast was all-you-can-eat, but one pancake and a bite of the eggs and sausage were plenty for me.
I'd told the folks at Iredell House that I'd be back for a plate of their whole hog bbq after the contest. They'd saved me some. Well-seasoned and good smoky notes, but on the dry side from holding. Still I was glad to have the opportunity to taste what's typical for backyard picnics in these parts. The slaw was a bit sweeter and more finely chopped. The vinegar sauce was stained red from chile flakes and packed a nice punch.

California Elementary School Hosts Toy Gun Exchange – Is There An Agenda Here?
One day, when I went to pick up my daughter from the babysitter, I saw two neighborhood boys outside playing with toy guns. I heard a disturbing, "Bam, I shot you and you're dead now!" Are elementary-age children so desensitized to guns and killing that they play shoot-em-up? Of course, I'm sure even my dad played 'Cops and Robbers' or 'Cowboys and Indians' with the same toy guns way back before violence on TV or video games and the likelihood of these kids ever turning into psychopathic killers is slim but it still was disturbing to me

This was awesome. My Boys ate it up. They requested that I put this on the weekly fav list. My DH which is extremely picky said it was delicious. Can't wait to make something else of Nadia's.

Not my most favorite thing to cook since it takes well over an hour to prepare, but my family loved this. I will definitely make the bolognese again when I make pasta; it was excellent.

Not exactly hi-speed since it takes close to an hour, but easy and tasty. For tradition's sake we added a couple ounces of cream to the quickie bolognese, it just seemed wrong to leave the dairy out. Spend a little extra for San Marzano tomatoes and fresh mozzarella - in a recipe this simple, quality ingredients make a difference and it'll still come in under $2.50 a serving.

Esurance has a few ideas of what you could cover your home with — and it's not a slab of paint and some cute flowered curtains. As seen on this story from Deadspin's "The Concourse," Esurance's latest Chicago billboard on Canal St. contained a NSFW typo.
RedEye later discovered the photo of the billboard had been photoshopped and posted to Instagram. Read the full update here:

Area's newest greenhouse a source of supplies, advice
By Mariann Hughes - firstname.lastname@example.com
TOMS BROOK -- You may be tempted to succumb to the popular urge to "go green" with a garden, especially as warmer weather is peeking around the corner, but if the thought of starting one is intimidating, look no further than Toms Brook.
Scott Edmondson and Lynne Phillips, the owner and manager of the brand-new business, Natural Art Garden Center, on Old Valley Pike, are seasoned pros when it comes to plants, trees, shrubs, landscaping and hardscaping. Their greenhouse will be a one-stop shop for garden needs -- both for the merchandise and the advice.
"We don't know everything, nobody does," Edmondson said. "But if we don't know something, I know how to find out and get that information and tell [the customer]."
Boasting more than 20 years of landscaping and hardscaping prowess with his company C&S Landscaping -- he started it in 1987 -- Edmondson is hoping to geographically merge the two businesses next year to offer customers a more complete view of what he has to offer.
"They will be able to come here and see stuff because right now I travel to them and bring them samples," Edmondson said.
"And then [when they come here] they might see something they like that I didn't think they would like."
Edmondson has a well-rounded gardening resume, including being a Virginia-certified horticulturist, a Class-A contractor, and a Virginia Commercial Pesticide Applicator. Phillips ran an orchard for five years.
Meanwhile, their new venture this year is to offer a wealth of plants, both vegetables and flowers, trees and shrubs, as well as seeds and bagged goods at Natural Art Garden Center for both the experienced and the inexperienced gardener.
Edmondson and Phillips started building the greenhouse around Thanksgiving. While they are already open for business, they hope to celebrate a grand opening in early May.
They built the structure themselves, and, although still in the early stages, the structure and the surrounding area already show traces of the talent of Edmondson and Phillips and their crew.
A section of the roof over their office building boasts a multi-layered, specially engineered "living roof" -- a mat of sedum (small, drought-tolerant plants) growing in a "media layer," a soil-like substance. The result is a velvety carpet on top of their building that, according to Edmondson, keeps the building well-insulated in both winter and summer, reduces runoff and captures 70 percent of the rainfall. This "living roof" can be recreated for customers and is, of course, extremely environmentally friendly.
If Natural Art Garden Center doesn't carry the plant, tree or shrub the customer is looking for, the greenhouse will special order it. No matter what horticultural experience the customer is seeking, the crew will walk with them each step of the way, from helping plot a design for a garden, to delivering and planting. Staff also will offer knowledge and tips on flora to planning out an orchard, from offering advice on the best types of plants for a yard to adding the finishing touches with some lovely hardscaping.
Customers who are intimidated by the thought of growing a garden need not worry about the soundness of the advice they will receive at Natural Art Garden Center. Customer service is crucial to Edmondson and Phillips, and they show their enthusiasm for their work by giving excellent assistance. Not only are they themselves immersed in the plant world, they are careful to only hire workers who can help even those customers who are just stepping into the world of gardening. Their love of the outdoors is apparent in their animated conversation and the abundant plant life they good-naturedly admit is taking over even their home.
"His nickname is 'Tree-Hugger,'" said Phillips laughingly of Edmondson.
Edmondson has won a variety of awards for his landscaping and hardscaping. His latest success was an "outdoor kitchen" which won first place in Design/Insulation for Keep Virginia Beautiful. He has built trellises, patios, outdoor kitchens, brick walks, water gardens and much more. He can install outdoor lighting. He can create a pond in a backyard, or build a small one for a deck.
"The end product is all that matters," Phillips said of their work. "Usually we exceed expectations."
"That's what 80 percent of our customers tell us," Edmondson added.
The greenhouse is located at 27358 Old Valley Pike. For more information, contact the Natural Art Garden Center at 436-3130 or visit Edmondson's landscaping Web site at www.cslandscaping.com.

What a wonderful soup! I made the recipe almost exactly as written and did not experience the disdain that others have. The only thing I did differently is that I added balsamic vinegar to the vegetables while they were sauteing. I do need to note that I used french lentils which are the smaller green lentils. I would recommend this soup to be paired with a quick green salad and a baguette classique.
I loved the flavor of this dish. I used regular brown lentils and it came out fine. I substituted in homemade chicken stock instead of vegetable broth. I added 4 cloves of garlic instead of two and it didn't overwhelm the dish. I did blend two cups of the lentils and I was happy with the consistency. I would not make the balsamic vinegar optional. I think it really make the dish unique so a must for this recipe.
I made this close to as was written 'except' that I added one extra clove of garlic, used regular green lentils, and used chicken stock, and it took closer to an hour for the lentils to become tender. I used an immersion blender to semi blend a portion of the soup. {The next time I make this I will go to the specialty store get the recommended 'French Lentils' and try them out, although the regular green ones that I used the first time worked just fine.} I absolutely love the addition of the tomato & balsamic in this recipe it added so much to the flavor. This recipe will be my go to method of making lentil soup from now on.
We love this recipe - easy, super tasty, healthy, and freezes really well. We prepare the soup as-is (and it gets 4 forks as-is), and have also tried a million modifications (often out of necessity) and they all work. Our favorite modification involves adding fresh thyme, bay leaves, and sage (once the broth is added) to simmer with the soup. We also serve it with lemon slices to brighten up the flavor, which cuts down on the need to add salt.
Have made this recipe many times and it's always a hit. So easy, inexpensive, and healthy. I skip the balsamic.
Great recipe. I have made it many times but if you want to kick it up a bit use a can of diced jalapeños tomatoes.
Great flavor (yes, very tomato-y). We used chicken broth instead of veggie broth. One disappointment was that the lentils weren't cooked all the way through. I'd like to make this again; perhaps I need to soak the lentils in advance, though one reason I made this soup was that it was quick and easy.
I didn't like this soup at all. It had too much tomato flavour. I added several things to dilute the tomato, but nothing really helped.
Delicious soup! I've made this recipe twice now, as written, except I use french green lentils and add some herbs de Provence. I prefer it with the splash of balsamic vinegar at the end. I puree the soup with my immersion blender to a smooth consistency so that my four year old will eat it. It's a great way to get my daughter to eat her veggies!

Does anyone have some time to make me a new siggy? As much as I love my little snowman, I'm thinking it is time for the red and green to go. ;)
I'd love the same information that is in my current siggy and something spring-like that I can wear for a while would be great!
Thank you so much in advance for your help!

I love it, Sue! Thank you so much for making it for me. I'm excited to have something new to wear! :)

Madonna - Girl Gone Wild Remix (Montage)
Unofficial, but awesome.
(Source: youtube.com)
Last year, Spank Rock teamed up with Santigold on "Car Song," a track that appeared on his album Everything Is Boring And Everyone Is A Fucking Liar. Now, Seattle art-rap duo Shabazz Palaces have remixed the track, transforming it into sputtering, murky bass music but keeping its catchiness fully intact.

Tired of Lana Del Rey remixes? Not so fast. Because I hear my grandmother is in the process of preparing a "Born To Die" remix that will BLOW your minds. No, but seriously, I always love me a good RAC remix. And here we have a new one by the ways of Ms. Del Rey. Granted, I much prefer the Penguin Prison remix to this song (you can listen to that right here), but this one is something I'll have on repeat in my car throughout the weekend. And now that I've possibly introduced you to one of the masters of the remix, here are some other RAC remixes I recommend: (click to listen)
Ke$ha - Sleazy Remix 2.0 Get Sleazier
Normally, I wouldn't be caught dead posting a Ke$ha song. But if you could get past the painful hook, you have an amazing video that turned out better than if they had gotten Andre 3000, Wiz Khalifa, T.I., and Lil Wayne themselves. The old dude rapping T.I's part is where it peaks for me.

Reeemiiiixx Daaaaaaayy (did I use adequate e's & i's). Can't Stop Won't Stop.
She's not a huge fan of remixes. But who passes up the opportunity to have David Lynch remix your track? So here we have the first and only official authorized Zola Jesus remix, "In Your Nature," as heard through the ears of Mr. Lynch himself.
In accord with my previous post and what's bumping in my headphones today, I deem today "Reeeeeemiiiix Day." I got some good ones up my sleeve. Starting with this we'regoingbackwayback remix of Biggie's "Going Back To Cali."

Lana Del Rey - Born To Die (PDP 13 Remix)
Lana just got the remix treatment from our favorite Blur & Gorillaz frontman, Damon Albarn. Under the pseudonym PDP 13, Albarn strips the original song of its orchestral layer & creates a bass-heavy club track from the gloomy pop track. The result? The remix we all didn't know we wanted.

In an era where mixtapes are putting people on the map, A$AP Rocky can be singled out as one of the most buzzed about new artists for his recent LiveLoveA$AP mixtape. I have yet to form a real opinion on him (after Ke$ha, I vowed to never support anyone with dollar sign used to stylize their name), but I've been really enjoying his single "Peso" and some of the remixes of it that have since emerged. This one's my fave thus far…

I was quite convinced that Maria would win this match, but the way it happened is beyond what I expected. Really too bad that she could not close it when serving for the match at 5-1.
Have not seen the match but it looks that Maria is delivering some good tennis. I'm curious to see a video of the handshake thing, but I imagine Maria had quite a bit of tension to release. A tentative performance would have put some question marks to her sparkling start of the tournament so she was obviously the one with most to lose.
She did well it seems, and I think showing up in the QF is almost in the pocket..........
Well done Maria.

This install also features Keisler's complete hydraulic clutch actuator kit. The hydraulic clutch eliminates all the moving parts of the original mechanical system. It is the easiest way to actuate the clutch, while reducing pedal effort at the same time, and increases header clearances. The system includes an application-specific master cylinder, slave cylinder with release bearing, reservoir, and all fittings and brackets for installation. For 2004, Keisler has changed to an improved hydraulic throw-out bearing. It features a self-centering preloaded bearing, piston with wiper and silicon-molded dust boot, solid adjustable spacer mount, forged aluminum hardened case, and a spring which keeps the bearing in contact with the clutch fingers at all times for quiet consistent operation. Additionally, this unit does not require an air bleeder line like the old model.

|August 14
In 1385, this day marked the de facto Castilian conquest of Portugal because the army of King John I and his Aragonese, Italian and French allies emerged victorious from the decisive Battle of Aljubarrota fought at São Jorge place, between the towns of Leiria and Alcobaça.
Battle of AljubarrotaHoping to crush Castilian ambitions to the throne, Portuguese forces under the command of General Nuno Álvares Pereira had, with the support of English allies, forced a decision in the 1383-5 Crisis. But a French allied heavy cavalry charge in full strength disrupted order in enemy lines which were then devasted by the advance of the enormous main line of Castilian forces.
The strategy had backfired spectacularly for King John I of Portugal (pictured) who had failed to build upon his status as the Master of the Order of Aziz. Instead of a Royal House of Aziz ruling an independent Portugal, the interregnum ended with the Castilian House of Trastámara seizing the Portuguese throne. And King John I of Castile ruled for five glorious years before his death in 1390.

"I am thrilled with this birth announcement. The quality of the paper and photos are superb. I like the modern feeling of this card; it doesn't have a stereotypical "baby" feel to it. I couldn't be happier with this purchase. Strongly recommend."
"Ordered this announcement for the birth of our son and the print and paper quality were excellent. I loved the fact that it offered spots for 4 photos but that they were separated. We received tons of compliments on the gorgeous announcements that we sent out."
"I got so many compliments on my card. The option of putting in two photos is great and including all the birth information on one card. So happy I purchased this card. Very easy to design and input the info. A good service was given as the photo I originally submitted was blurring and the Tiny Prints designer came back and suggested another photo. Well worth it. Thank you."
"Tiny Prints is fabulous!!! Very easy to create our baby announcements online...beautiful, high-quality cards with several options for envelopes, etc. The processing and shipping was quick - they were delivered 2 days earlier than expected.

High-fat diet during pregnancy could lead to lifelong obesity in children
The offspring of obese mothers consuming a high-fat diet during pregnancy are at a higher risk for lifelong obesity and related metabolic disorders, than children of thin mothers, a new study has found.
Conducted in mice, the study by researchers at Yale School of Medicine and the University of Cologne, showed that the offspring of mothers who consumed a high-fat diet during lactation had abnormal neuronal circuits in the hypothalamus - a key brain region that regulates metabolism.
"Our study suggests that expecting mothers can have major impact on the long-term metabolic health of their children by properly controlling nutrition during this critical developmental period of the offspring," study's co-lead author Tamas Horvath, the Jean and David W. Wallace Professor of Biomedical Research and chair of comparative medicine at Yale School of Medicine, said.
Horvath and his collaborators at the Max Planck Institute for Neurological Research and at the University of Cologne developed a mouse model of metabolic programming.
They found that mouse mothers fed a high-fat diet during breastfeeding had offspring with abnormal neuronal connections in the hypothalamus, as well as altered insulin signaling in this brain circuit.
As a result, the offspring remained overweight and had abnormalities in glucose metabolism throughout life.
Horvath and his colleagues said the study helps identify the key point in pregnancy when maternal nutrition has the most impact on an offspring's metabolic health.
The study is published in the journal Cell.

I am heading to the store in a bit and was planning on buying eggs for a couple of recipes I want to try this week. However, I've heard you can buy cartons of liquid eggs (or egg whites, which is what I would probably get). Or maybe even just an egg substitute. Does anyone have experience with these things? Do they cook just like normal eggs? Do they taste the same? I'm clueless here but it seems like an easier way to cook. Thanks!

I bought a carton once, & I thought they were disgusting. I just made them like regular scrambled eggs, though. Perhaps it wouldn't matter so much if you were using them in a recipe. They did cook the same, but the taste was very strange to me.

I bought frozen egg whites once. While I was defrosting it in the fridge, the bag split open. Egg everywhere.
I like to stick with real eggs, since I'm trying to eat as natural as possible.

It really depends of the brand you buy. I really like egg creations and simply egg whites, they cook just like normal eggs(scrambled of course) and I find they taste just as good :)

Is there any medical reason (ie. allergy) why you need to avoid eggs?
If not, why not get the real thing instead of a processed or fake product? If you can't, or don't want to, eat eggs, then eat something else!

I eat liquid eggs almost every day and I think they taste great and cook very well. They are a great, low-fat, low calorie source of protein for ovo-vegetarians and don't consider them a fake product as they are made from real egg whites. I use both Egg Beaters and Better'n Eggs and like them both.
Advice is worth exactly what you pay for it.

I buy the egg substitute (liquid egg whites) that Costco sells and mix it with real eggs just to save a few calories. I do eat a lot of real eggs and consider them healthy.

I use Trader Joe's cage free liquid egg whites (carton) and I think they taste pretty good. This is how I can get more protein without all of the calories of using full eggs and the mess of separating out the egg whites from whole eggs.
For scrambled eggs, it usually tastes better to add a whole egg with your egg whites.

I love the "Just Whites" egg cartons. They cook well in the microwave or on the stove. I sometimes pour some in a sprayed bowl, mix in bacon bits and throw on some shredded cheese after microwaving.Mix it up, add some ketchup, enjoy a low cal, yet indulgent breakfast for about 300 calories.

Simply egg whites is what I go with. Fills me up more then regular egg whites from the shell do. Throwing some lean turkey/chicken on there makes it a protein filled breakfast/lunch. I use to eat 5 servings of that with a whole packet of purdue baked chicken. Protein overload.

I like to crack a real egg. I feel it is fresher, and it just feels more natural and less processed, although I know you can get the organic liquid eggs which I've tried and also not hated.
I've become pretty good at separating yolk from white, so if I make an omelette or something I usually just use a few whites and a yolk.
You do need the yolk, at least some of it, for all the amino acids and nutritional benefits of eggs. Although, that is the part with cholesterol if that's what you're worried about...

My school cafeteria made omelets with them, and I never noticed the difference. I always buy fresh eggs though. I trust them more than eggs in a carton, which I would guess or highly processed. I also make a point to eat the yolk, since that's where all the healthy nutrients is. The only time I cut it out is if I'm baking or something.

A bit older and have to limit cholesterol for me and hubby so egg beaters for the win. He has southwest and I have regular, have lots of veggies in the morning in the eggs so no difference in taste really, have had it both ways as the eggs are fine a few days a week. The liquid is faster though. It is eggs folks, just without the yolk. Not fake egg folks, those are disgusting.

If you're going to eat them as scrambled or in a recipe, I don't think they're that bad. You'll be saving calories and it's easier if you're not good at separating real eggs.
I prefer to use real eggs because they are cheaper and I like to make eggs different ways (scrambled, griddled, microwaved for sandwiches).
I say up to you!
ETA: I also like to use one yolk with a couple of whites for an omelette. You just don't have the versatility with carton eggs.

which are unlikely to change unless specifically addressed by instructional strategies. Persistent preconceptions often limit student's conceptual understanding and ability to apply new knowledge appropriately to new contexts.
In the pages below an expanded summary of Baumstark's presentation, the learning outcomes proposed by workshop participants, as well as additional ideas and cautions put forward by participants during plenary discussions, are detailed.
When a conscientious college instructor designs a course for undergraduates, the usual questions are: "What topics do I need to cover for these particular students? What are the prerequisites for the course, and do they serve as prerequisites for other courses? What textbook or materials should I use? Should the course include a lab experience? If so, to what extent is it possible to correlate the material covered in the lecture with that in the lab?"
Rarely, however, is much thought given to answering two other crucial questions: "What, explicitly, do I want the students to know and be able to do at the end of the course?" and "How will I assess whether they have achieved those learning outcomes?" Yet answers to the latter questions are critical in determining what is taught and how it is taught (Wiggins and McTighe, 1998; Huba and Freed, 2000; NRC, 2001). This is not a new or radical view. In a now classical text on instructional methods, Tyler (1949) describes the logic of starting with learning outcomes: "Educational objectives become the criteria by which materials are selected, content is outlined, instructional procedures are developed, and texts and examinations are prepared…[the objectives] indicate the kinds of changes in the student to be brought about so that instructional activities can be planned and developed in a way likely to attain these objectives" (pp. 1, 45).
Barbara Baumstark, Georgia State University (GSU)
What then are the processes by which a college instructor develops a series of learning outcomes for a course? In her workshop presentation Wandering Through the World of Standards, Baumstark described her experiences with Quality in Undergraduate Education (QUE) (http://www.pewundergradforum.org/project9.html).

50 Shades of Frozen
by Mike Stanz
posted Aug 15 2014 5:00AM
It was almost bound to happen. Whenever something new and hot comes along, someone has to mash it together with something old that was hot.
Take for instance
50 Shades of Grey
. The first trailer was released a couple of weeks ago for the film that's not due out until February 2015, and it caused quite a buzz. That's the new and hot thing.
was hot for months after being released last year, and its biggest song, "
Let It Go
," was covered and parodized by many regular citizens. That's the thing that was hot but is now old.
So someone decided it was time to put the two of those things together.
The result:
50 Shades of Frozen
Funny, and just a little bit creepy. But you decide for yourself…

Photographs by Evan R. Wexler
Perched high above an industrial stretch of East Williamsburg, a menacing robot nine feet high and seven feet wide surveys the street below, watching cars steal past graffitied factory buildings as if they were prey. Its fierce head sways and dips when a wooden rudder protruding from the back of its neck catches the breeze.
This is the Brooklyn Griffin. It almost never was. An earlier edition was destroyed on orders from an unsympathetic building manager.
"We managed to salvage a whole hand and two thumbs," said one of the two visiting British artists who built the griffin. The rest was relegated to the trash. Read more…
