Be a master at one thing, or be highly capable of many things, but never excel?
I was thinking more along the lines of one area or subject. Examples could be sports, education, arts, etc.
Feel free to share any ideas. Interested in hearing your thoughts and opinions.
Thank you :)

Jul 16 2012: When it comes to the decisions we make, I think it is useful to consider the options that actually face us. I think the option of developing competency in a number of areas along with mastery of one or two is a goal many can attain. This approach also facilitates interdisciplinary work and interdisciplinary understanding, which are fundamental in the solution of problems which do not fall along specific disciplinary lines.Jul 29 2012: Change your frame of reference. The person who has a wide variety of skills - but not the "master" at any one of them is, however, in a position to be a master facilitator between others. To coordinate projects that require many specific experts, to translate between groups, and so on. A CEO needs to understand some IT, for instance, and some organizational psychology so he can understand and coordinate the people under him who know a ton of psych but no IT and vice-versa. Ship's captain. President. Peacemaker. etc.

Jul 16 2012: It seems right to me to suggest doing one thing well! Probably most of us know people who try to do too much and don't do anything well. Maybe this topic is very subjective in nature--depending on the person!! Maybe doing one thing includes many tasks, but management of it all well, giving one's full attention, is the one thing well done.
- +1
What is the basis for your question? Could there be truth in saying doing one thing well results in greater benefits to society? Is it true that if a person cannot do anything well because he is too busy trying to do too much that such persons do not help people? Is such a person foolish?
Could there be benefit in being talented at doing many things?
Sometimes I thinketh we humans thinketh too much!
Jul 17 2012: The question arose from a discussion my boyfriend and I had about majors and careers. He believes that it is important to stick to one thing or major so that you can put your all into that area or else, just like you said, one may try to do too much and not do anything well. Whereas I found that to be questionable because if you chose something for the sake of choosing, you may end up putting your all into one thing and miss opportunities that could have better suited you. It's all circumstantial of course, which is why I find this to be a difficult question to answer!Jul 17 2012: Mark and Daniella,
I love that Mark..."sometimes I thinketh we humans thinketh too much!"......so true!!!
I agree Mark that this topic is very subjective and depends on the person. You help cleaify your question with your comment above Daniella.
I think/feel one thing that is helpful is how we define "excel" and "master" as individuals. I don't feel that I am a "master" of anything, and I DO feel that I have excelled at many things in the life experience.
I agree with your boyfriend Daniella, in that it is important to put energy wholeheartedly into our experiences. That being said, we have a lifetime to pursue a number of various activities, careers, and experiences.
For me, there have been priorities throughout my life. One thing or another takes center stage. When I first had babies, being a mother was a priority. I owned and managed businesses from my home and played sports, but the kids were the focus, and my life revolved around the family.
As they grew older, I pursued a career that took me further from the home. I was obviously still a mother, and very much engaged in that, and as the kids grew, they didn't need my physical presence as much, so I had time to pursue other things.
At the same time, my interest in sports was increasing, and I got to the point of participating in a couple different sports competitively.
Over the years, my interests have changed, time committments changed, careers have changed, physical abilities changed, and I've had a very full life (in my perception) excelling in several activities and master of none. I believe that what we focus on at any given time is the important piece of the puzzle. I have followed my heart, and used the logical mind to determine how to achieve certain goals. Never, have I chosen something "simply for the sake of choosing". Once something is chosen, however, it has my priority for a certain amount of time, and there is no looking back for missed opportunities.
Jul 18 2012: Colleen you seem like a very well-rounded person and I enjoyed your response.
I do agree with my boyfriend as well, however I feel that there are people, students in particular, who are pressured into finding their niche or major right away. This is where I derived choosing something for the sake of choosing.
I suppose, though, that this situation could be comparable to marriage. You chose a person you are passionate about and try to work things out for better for worse, for richer, for poorer, etc.
Maybe it is a matter of knowing when to keep putting your energy into something because you know it can work out, or realizing that it's not going to work the way you had imagined and move on. I know he also believes in marriage to be something eternal and if it doesn't work out, you never give up. There is always the possibility your partner may need a few years to get out of some phase or funk they are in. This is why I'd like to compare the two because I find myself in agreement with him more and more, yet at the same time I can understand, for example, why divorces exist.
"I believe that what we focus on at any given time is the important piece of the puzzle." I love this and I agree with you 100%!
Jul 19 2012: Hi Daniella:>)
Thank's for your kind words. I do indeed feel "rounded" and "grounded" as I navigate the life adventure:>)
I agree that unfortunately, there are people who are pressured to take certain paths. It's important for all of us not to feel pressured in ourselves, or contribute to the feelings of pressure by others. We are all on different life paths, and part of the enjoyment for me in the life adventure, is recognizing that we ARE ALL DIFFERENT, with different thoughts, feelings, ideas, beliefs and opinions.
My daughter and I used to have this conversation when she was a teen. She was interested and participated in almost everything....intellectual pursuits, music, drama, art, sports, etc. She had 3 very special friends in high school...one was an accomplished musician (not interested in sports at all...prefered to spend time playing/studying music), one an accomplished writer/scholar (passionate about writing and studying the writings of others...no sports or music) and one an accomplished athlete (all she wanted to do was play sports...not interested in music or intellectual pursuits). My daughter was close to the top of her class (the intellectual friend was at THE top) played several sports, played 3 instruments, was involved in drama, chorus, various other interests, and had a job.
Sometimes, she expressed the feeling that she was "speading herself too thin", and perhaps she "should" focus on one or two things. I always told her to follow her heart...pursue whatever she felt like pursuing....be focused with what you are doing in the moment, and don't do more than you think/feel you are comfortable with.
All 4 of these girls (now in their 40s) are accomplished young women... still very good friends. One important thing they have in common, is that they all followed their heart...pursued what they were passionate about...continue to live life with integrity, curiosity and love....that's what it's all about...in my humble perception:>)
Paul Redling
Jul 16 2012: I think that I would be the master of one thing. I mean, if you're THE master, you have all of that time to go around learning NEW things and to try them out. I think that I would make myself the master of playing Bass.
- +1
Jul 17 2012: Play 3 hours a day for 10 years :)Jul 19 2012: No one will pay you to teach mediocrity... Well actually... They will. But, it's a problem.
Mastery of anything, is a guarantee that when the next generation comes along, you have something worth while to teach them.Jul 17 2012: I think it depends on the economic climate at the time, allied to your own interests and natural talents.
In times of instability and change, it is better to be more of a generalist - enabling a grasp of the workings of specialisms within the bigger context. It is the knowledge of the bigger context that will facilitate lasting change - not specialisms on their own.
When things are stable economically, it is ok to specialise. It seems less crucial to have generalist knowledge, because we would then know that the broad context is healthy.
To give an analogy in ecology - if one (or many) species are in danger of extinction, we know that something is going wrong somewhere. To benefit that species, one does not only study and try to conserve the species alone. It is necessary to study and conserve the entire ecosystem in which that species lives. This favours lasting change for the whole ecosystem, rather than the temporary and unrealistic change for a single species.Jul 17 2012: You can master anything you are determined to master. The question is why master it?
Jul 18 2012: I like it! Great question!Jul 18 2012: To follow desire.Jul 17 2012: i heard it from many of my friends and even people saying its good to be a master in one rather trying hands on every other thing.
my mind keeps on vacillating inorder to decide one out of two.
i feel its good to know couple of things in life because we cant say when the knowledge of a particular thing would be helpful,but at the same time,if you want to be successful in a particular area,you need to be the master in it.
'Master in one which you are most interested in.'Jul 17 2012: Why not master two things?
Jul 18 2012: In reality I would encourage people to master as many things as they can handle! But just for fun and discussion, if you had no other choice, which of the two would you chose?
Jul 18 2012: You can't simply master everything, and everyone isn't the same; some may never be able to master something, so what, plenty more things than where that comes from. Never give up on a passion though, even if you are terrible, like me and snowboarding.
A lot of thoughts when suggesting being a master:
+ It takes 'time' more than anything else to be a master; practice and education.
+ Most important, as in everything else, desire!
+ A lot of factors go into being a master of any single subject, skill, ability, talent, etc.
++The biggest being the communities that would create the criteria of a 'master.'
++ Each type/group of community has their own culture.
+ Personally, I find that 'master' is the ability to re-master the terms of mastery. Reconfiguring and reassembling given data, style, thoughts, aesthetics, hypothesis, etc. and expanding, create new systems or thoughts to build on..
+Being a master is no small feet, is all I am saying! Unless it is a self proclaimed master status, lol.
If the question was if having basic knowledge in all categories - tense, that I can put my mind to.
But, even as far as specializing - we shouldn't aim for one or all. We should aim to combine, work with and/or practice two, or even three.
We are a generation of enhancers, re-innovators, and creative pioneers. There are plenty of sub- and sub-sub-fields/arts that involve the categories in which mastery or specialization (things). Need to inspire to create more of them and do our generational duties! lol I mean, to be an originator today is to reanimate older ideas, I would argue! The philosophy of video games, geometry of cognition.
Random notes:
+ In college, if someone is a liberal arts student, you should be dual majoring or double minoring. Approach different fields, differently.
+ Also, the attempt to master something may be very euphoric in life.
+ Originality isn't usually original.
My two only fields? Cog. psychology and humanities - both pretty broad fieldJul 16 2012: I agree. Develop at least one skill to a very high level, but learn many others too.Jul 16 2012: I would spend time finding out what area pays well and mostly what you r purpose is.
I would also note that knowledge is not just book learning the application is where rubber meets the road and in my opinion is infinitely more important as application is the acid test of finding out if you know it or you don't.
There is also the idea of having to do something for 10,000 hours before you become really good at it. In this video (I recommend it for you) the one salient point is that quantity trumps quality every single time.
Jul 17 2012: The video was great! Especially in response to this question. It reminds me of my high school years actually. I never thought of myself as a "math person" or having a "math mind", so I never really put in the effort to go forward and ended up doing the bare minimum. Now that I am in college, rather than have the mentality that I am incapable, I put in the true effort and time it takes to understand concepts (youtube has helped me immensely). I believe patience plays a key role in that. I think knowing that there is struggle in learning and with time comes understanding, is really empowering. I only wish I put in those hours in during high school!Jul 16 2012: To master one thing is excelling in my book. I am content to allow others to use their strengths and I will use mine where I can. How does one define success?
Jul 17 2012: I think my grammar may have been a bit confusing. What I meant was: being a master at one thing vs. being highly capable, but never excelling.
The definition of success!
One word that comes to mind: achievement
Another word: complex :)

Hot Coffee
Because almost everyone has heard about the McDonald's coffee case, and most people believe they know what it's about, this project has a fascination for people. Of course, we go much further into the debate than just the McDonald's coffee case, but the case is a vehicle for people to think about their long held beliefs and whether they are valid. We think this movie has the potential, with the right funding and effort, to really change the way people think about our civil justice system and access to the courts.

Comments On May 20, 2015:Great gas can. Solidly built and has held up well. I also purchased a VP can. That can holds more gas, but uses thinner plastic and takes up more space. Both are a solid choice.
Was this review helpful?
Comments On Jan 03, 2015:It's a perfect size gas can for practice days, trail rides, etc. This packs well the only flaw I found was that over a year of use the spout broke. I'm not sure if this is just over use of the product of a weakness of the product. I'd buy another one without hesitation, but I will expect to break the nozzle again, unless I can find a replacement for just that part.

Comments On Dec 01, 2013:I purchased 2 of these gas cans and hate them. I first had to make my own filler cap gaskets because they were too soft of material, then the cap cracked because the they are made too thin. You tend to lift the gas can by the spout to fill your tank and guess what happens, it cracks and leaks all over your bike because they are made too thin. The can itself is heavy duty but the items that screw on them are made very poor.

Comments On Aug 18, 2013:Bought 3 of these cans and 2 of them are useless now. The fuel spout broke where it attaches to the hose on both cans. The rubber seals inside the cap on 2 of the cans does not fit properly and the cans leak. A very low quality can for a premium price. Buy something else.
Additional Comments On Sep 16, 2013:The hose broke off 2 of the 3 cans I have within a month. I contacted Matrix Concepts and received a response the next day asking for pictures of the broken hoses. I sent those in and receive a response the next day saying they world replace both hose kits no charge. These are great cans as long as the hose does not break off. Customer service at Matrix Concepts is the best, very quick to make things right, would definitely buy from then again as they seem to really stand by their products.

Comments On Mar 01, 2013:I have had this jug for 2 years and used it alot. What I like is the filler hose stays on the can so you don't break the seal. It fits under my truck bed cover easy since the filler tube is on the side. Easier to poor than the jugs with the filler tube on the top. I have not had any problems with this jug. Its an odd size but who cares,is the 1/2 gallon really going to make a difference? This can is much better than my 3 other jugs that have problems with them.

Comments On Dec 16, 2012:This tank is cool,and work well. There is no breather hole so you can't tilt high or the gas flow is jerky.

Comments On Oct 04, 2012:The gas can itself is high quality and fine, but the hose needs a better cap.

Can you mix it up and use different letters throughout? Below is my attempt.
1. During our monthly visit to the zoo, we made our way to the monkeys. This was a mob scene as they were the main attraction. Pushing through the crowd, it was a competition to be the nearest to the smudged Plexiglas partition. We braved odors, sounds and unwanted closeness to briefly view them hanging out in their habitat. Feeling rude in my resolve to reach the desired destination, I came to the realization that we were the ones on display.
2. I'm thinking Dr. Seuss the Sneetches would be an example?

FarFetch — the British e-commerce hub that connects you to indie goods from all across the web — and footwear showroom SIXLondon have rounded up six fashion bloggers (all at the top of their games) to create a limited-edition collection of exceptionally cool shoes. The blogs represented — The Man Repeller, Style Bubble, and The Facehunter, to name a few — are some of our favorites, and we're charmed to see that the resulting collection is actually really awesome.So awesome, in fact, that we're having trouble picking a favorite. Is it the muted floral desert boot/creeper hybrid made by Style Salvage, or is it Carolines Mode's brainchild: fire-engine-red boots with geometric studding? The shoes reflect the style and personality of the bloggers — Susie Bubble's shoes look like some kind of disco confection, The Man Repeller's heeled booties are fashion-girl in the front, studded pony mane in the back — and we love that they make blogger collabs look damn good. Available Nov. 22, the shoes will retail for £214 - £397 ($338.59 - $628.13). And only 20 of each shoe will be produced, so if you see something you like, you'd better get on it!

About LIM College
LIM College Named a 'Best in the Northeast' College by The Princeton Review
Highlighted in website feature on '2013 Best Colleges: Region by Region'
For the eighth consecutive year, LIM College has been named one of the best colleges in the Northeast, according to the nationally known education services company, The Princeton Review. It is one of 222 institutions The Princeton Review recommends in its "Best in the Northeast" section of its website feature, "2013 Best Colleges: Region by Region."
Says Robert Franek, Princeton Review's Senior VP / Publishing, "We're pleased to recommend LIM College to users of our site as one of the best schools to earn their undergrad degree. We chose it and the other terrific institutions we name as 'regional best' colleges mainly for their excellent academic programs. From several hundred schools in each region, we winnowed our list based on institutional data we collected directly from the schools, our visits to schools over the years, and the opinions of our staff, plus college counselors and advisors whose recommendations we invite. We also take into account what students at the schools reported to us about their campus experiences at them on our 80-question student survey for this project. Only schools that permit us to independently survey their students are eligible to be considered for our regional 'best' lists."
The 222 colleges The Princeton Review chose for its "Best in the Northeast" list are located in 11 states. The Princeton Review also designated 153 colleges in the Midwest, 122 in the West, and 136 in the Southeast as best in their locales on the company's "2013 Best Colleges: Region by Region" lists. Collectively, the 633 colleges named "regional best(s)" constitute about 25% of the nation's 2,500 four-year colleges.
For this project, The Princeton Review asks students attending the colleges and universities to rate their own schools on several issues – from the accessibility of their professors to quality of the campus food – and answer questions about themselves, their fellow students, and their campus life. Comments from surveyed students are quoted in the school profiles on The Princeton Review site. One surveyed student said LIM College provides "...the knowledge and experience needed to succeed in the fast-paced, business world of fashion, and they do this through industry professionals in the perfect setting: New York City!"

White House Jewish liaison departs
The director of Jewish outreach for the White House is calling it quits.
Jarrod Bernstein, whose last day was Friday, had been in the post for only 15 months.
He said in an email that he plans to return to New York "to take on new challenges," according to the Times of Israel.
His position will be filled at least temporarily by Zachary Kelly, a special assistant in the White House chief of staff's office, a White House official confirmed.
The Jewish outreach job is a notoriously tough one. As the Times reports, former President George W. Bush went through seven liaisons in eight years.
Bernstein is getting a rave review from the Anti-Defamation League as he heads for the exit. "Jerrod was a tremendous asset to the White House and to the Jewish community, both in good times and tense times," national director Abraham H. Foxman said in a statement to POLITICO.
"His deep knowledge of the Jewish community and his appreciation of the issues surrounding the safety and security of the Jewish community, having served for many years with the Department of Homeland Security, served our common interests well during his time with the Obama Administration."

Saturday, February 21, 2004MARTIN, Tenn. (Feb. 21, 2004) -- East Tennessee State (3-2) opened day one at the UT-Martin Econo-Lodge Tournament Saturday with a 7-0 victory over St. Louis, but suffered a pair of set backs to host UTM and Indiana State each by a score of 3-2 at the Martin Recreation Complex in Martin, Tenn. Senior Tiffany McVay (Soddy-Daisy, Tenn.) hurled a two-hit shutout and improved to 2-0 on the mound, as the Buccaneers easily got past St. Louis in the tournament opener. McVay pitched all seven innings. She walked two and struck out two. ETSU busted out for three runs in the top of the third inning and added two more runs in the fifth. Outfielder Janine Sprague (Hillsborough, N.C.) led the Buccaneer offense with a 3-for-5 performance at the plate. Juniors Lindsay Lane (Erwin, Tenn.) and Mary Beth Hazelwood (Knoxville, Tenn.) each went 2-for-4 with a double. Lane also drove in three runs. In game two, UT-Martin broke a scoreless tie in the bottom of the fourth inning to take 1-0 lead. ETSU retaliated with two runs in the top of the fifth to take the lead, but the Skyhawks had the last word with a pair of runs in the bottom of the seventh off of Buccaneer pitcher Belinda Barrera (Fayetteville, N.C.). Barrera (1-1), a sophomore transfer from Gulf Coast Community College in Panama City, Fla., pitched her second great outing of the season. In 6.2 innings of work, she surrendered just five hits and struck out eight batters. McVay, who made the start in rightfield, tallied a pair of base hits, including a double and an RBI, in three at bats. The Buccaneers found themselves in an early hole versus Indiana State in the third game. The Sycamores took a 2-0 lead in the bottom of the first, scoring a pair of runs off of ETSU starter Courtney Jenkins (Knoxville, Tenn.). Jenkins settled down after the first frame and the Buccaneers tied it up on McVay's two-run homer in the top of the third. The score remained knotted until the bottom of the seventh, when Jenkins gave up a leadoff triple to the Sycamores' Melissa Biniewicz. Barrera then came in to relieve Jenkins and Biniewicz scored the game-winner on a sacrifice fly by Stephanie Spychaj. East Tennessee State will wrap up tournament play tomorrow with a game versus IUPU-Fort Wayne at 10 a.m. followed by a 12:30 contest against Oakland University.

The former CEO of Vail Resorts in Colorado said the employees and customers of Cedar Fair have little to fear if working for Apollo is similar to his experience.
"I have to tell you that meeting and getting a chance to work with the Apollo people was the most fulfilling, satisfying professional experience I have ever had," said Adam Aron, 55, CEO and chairman of Vail Resorts from 1996 to 2006. "It was always our theory at Vail, which Apollo supported all the way, if you really take good care of your customers, your employees and your community, the shareholders will do just fine."
Click HERE for continuing coverage of the Cedar Fair deal.
Apollo's public relations firm arranged a telephone interview with Aron after issuing a statement earlier this week saying it respects Cedar Fair's heritage.
Cedar Fair unitholders will be asked to vote in a few weeks on whether to allow Apollo Global Management, a private equity firm based in New York City, to buy the company and take it private.
Apollo has said it intends to keep Dick Kinzel as the company's CEO, and Kinzel said Apollo has assured him he'll remain in charge of the day-to-day operations at the amusement chain.
But the impending deal raises questions about what a change in ownership might mean.
Josh Kosman, a New York Post business reporter, is the author of a new book, "The Buyout of America," which argues private equity companies generally are bad for the companies they acquire. Private equity owners tend to emphasize short-term profits and often raise prices, cut customer service and cut capital investment, Kosman said.
Kosman said Apollo fits that mold. His book notes thousands of people lost their jobs after Apollo acquired retailer Linens 'n Things in 2006. The chain went bankrupt in 2008 and shut down. Five months before the bankruptcy, Linens 'n Things had 589 stores and 17,500 employees, the book says.
Aron, asked about Kosman's book, replied, "I can only talk from my own experience. My experience was not with the private equity industry. It was with Apollo."
Apollo turned Vail into a private company during Aron's first year but retained control of the board during his tenure.
Aron said during his 10 years at Vail, the number of employees grew from 2,000 to 16,000.
Hotel rooms grew from 72 to more than 8,000. Vail went from two to five ski resorts and from one to nine golf courses.
Kosman said Vail's experience was different from the usual private equity experience.
Typically, a private equity company buys a healthy firm it can milk for quick profits, Kosman said. Apollo acquired Vail after the previous owner went bankrupt.
It's possible the Cedar Fair deal could be a similar situation, Kosman said, as Cedar Fair essentially is using Apollo to refinance a crushing debt.

Fix natural numbers $n,m\in\mathbb{N}$. Given a partition $\lambda\vdash d$ with at most $n$ rows (and at most $m$ columns), we can define a partition $\lambda^\ast=(\lambda^\ast_1,\ldots,\lambda^\ast_n)$ by setting $\lambda^\ast_i:=m-\lambda_{n+1-i}$. Graphically, it is obtained by taking the complement of the Young diagram of $\lambda$ inside the $n\times m$ $-$ box $(m^n)$. Now, I'd be curious to learn about any combinatorial results involving this construction - but I don't know what it is called. If someone could tell me, that would be great - this way I'd not have such a hard time searching.

The "right" answer was given by Gjergji Zaimi in his comment above: Both "reverse partition" and "complementary partition" are terms that seem to be in use.

ETSU Baseball travels to #12 Mississippi State this weekend
Thursday, February 27, 2003JOHNSON CITY, Tenn. (Feb. 27, 2003) - The East Tennessee State Buccaneer baseball team will travel to Starkville, Miss. this weekend for a three-game series with the No. 12-ranked Mississippi State Bulldogs. The Bucs are 4-3 through seven games this season, after taking two of three from Binghamton this past weekend and then falling to Gardner-Webb on Tuesday. ETSU is led at the plate by sophomore outfielder Kevin Brotherton (Erwin, Tenn.) and junior outfielder Bo Calloway (Knoxville, Tenn.), batting .417 and .412, respectively. Junior second baseman Andy Howdeshell (Maryville, Tenn.) is tied for the team lead with two home runs and leads the squad with nine RBIs while batting .348. On the mound, several Bucs have been impressive in the early going. Junior lefty Josh Kite (Greeneville, Tenn.) has been great out of the bullpen, notching a 1-0 record with a 1.23 ERA. Freshman left-hander Steven Calicutt (Spartanburg, S.C.) has been phenomenal in his first two collegiate starts, going 1-0 with a win over Xavier on Feb. 16. He has a 2.38 ERA and has allowed four hits while striking out 13 in 11.1 innings. Junior lefty Tim Turner (Marietta, Ga.) was sharp in his last outing against Binghamton on Feb. 22, allowing just two hits and one earned run, while striking out seven in five innings for his first victory of the season. For ETSU this weekend, Kite will make his first start of the season on Friday, while Turner will get the call on Saturday and Calicutt will take the hill on Sunday. Mississippi State is 2-1 so far this season, having defeated Connecticut twice and falling to Birmingham Southern last weekend in the National Bank of Commerce Classic from Starkville, Miss. The Bulldogs finished fourth in the SEC West in 2002 after a 34-24-1 campaign (14-15 SEC). They return five of eight position starters and nine of 14 pitchers from last season. Bulldog head coach Ron Polk is a collegiate baseball legend having collected a 1,156-558-1 record in 29 seasons of coaching and a 922-446-1 record in 23 years at Mississippi State. Polk's teams have made 18 NCAA Tournament appearances and have advanced to seven College World Series'. Friday's game will begin at 5 p.m., Saturday's will be played at 3 p.m. and Sunday's first pitch will be at 2:30 p.m. Live statistics for all games will be available on Mississippi State's athletic website, www.mstateathletics.com. Friday's game will have a live audio broadcast available on the site.

Recipe by NC baking girl
"This is a delicious pot roast with peppers and onions. Just like at the Cuban restaurants in the malls! "
Hmm. None of these ingredients are on sale today.

Watch video tips and tricks
1 (2 pound)
beef chuck pot roast
3 cloves
red bell peppers, cut into large wedges
green bell peppers, cut into large wedges
yellow onion, cut into wedges
sweet onion, cut into wedges
1/2 (6 ounce) can
tomato paste, or to taste
1/4 cup
red wine vinegar
1/8 teaspoon
garlic powder, or to taste
1/8 teaspoon
seasoned salt, or to taste
salt and ground black pepper to taste
This is my recipe, except for all the changes they made, no water is added, and 1/4 cup red wine vinegar or dry wine should be added, and the peppers and onions should be added much sooner, to absorb all the flavors together, and I don't add any cayenne pepper, but do add garlic salt, garlic powder, and seasoning salt, done in this way it is 5 stars, done the way they listed, can't honestly tell you but doesn't sound right
Also, some other helpful tips, I use the same kind of beef you get for pot roast, and don't cut it up, after about 7 pr 8 hours of cooking it will start to fall apart, at this point open up the crock pot and pull it apart with a fork (if it doesn't happen easily - it's not ready yet) then cook another 15 minutes or so to absorb flavors best. Also I've found that half a can of tomato paste OR tomato soup works. Once this starts cooking it makes a bunch of "sauce" itself.
Adding some red wine didn't hurt either :)
hope you enjoy
As per author of the recipe, used red wine instead of water. Used a 'Bavette' (Flap) Beef and after 7 hrs, it came out quite tender. Wasn't crazy about the taste as it mostly tasted of the tomato paste and not much else. Probably my fault as I used one 13oz can of paste (too much).I also put all of the required spices, red pepper, green pepper, onion in 3 hrs prior to serving. Don't think I'll try this one again.

So glad I read your review before I made this. Your way sounded much better and was delicious. Sorry they messed with your recipe....
I made this recipe using the red wine vinegar instead of water as NCBaking suggested. It was excellent and my roommate who is cuban thought the same! I will definitely make this one again soon.
I made it like the reviewer (the owner of the recipe) said to make it and my husband and I really liked it. This was something good to eat that was different from your traditional pot roast (which I still love). I will definitely make this again.
This recipe was revised by the Allrecipes staff at the submitter's request on 9/10/2009.
Great recipe! As per other reviews, the more garlic the better. We put the Ropa Vieja on tortillas last night and are going to eat the rest on rice for dinner tonight. My wife cut up some fresh avocado to top the tacos and fresh lime is a must.
I add a can of tomatoes instead of paste. I prefer the whole tomatoes; just add the entire can, juice and all. That is usually all the liquid required. If I don't have whole tomatoes, I just use what is in the pantry. Onions, peppers, lots of garlic and pepper --- yummy and easy!

This year was the third year that the Unicoi County YMCA has hosted the ETSU Soccer clinic. "We saw some familiar faces. It is great to watch them grow up through our clinics," said head coach Heather Henson. "The smiles on the faces of the girls and boys were great. The 5-6 years olds were a great group this year. Their energy and enthusiasm to learn the game of soccer was energizing to everyone there." The day was sunny for the 65 children who attended the soccer clinic. Those in attendance were able to work with members of the ETSU soccer team to develop their technical skills and also were able to play in small setting games. The Bucs continue their season with a road trip to Tennessee Tech. this Friday, Sept. 3 at 3:00 p.m. before returning home to host UNC Asheville on Monday, Sept. 6 at 7:00 p.m.

Feathers wrote:You don't think it would be a good way to break attachment to food, and in particular comfort eating? (sincere question, not trying to be sarcastic or anything). I'm not aiming at weight loss specifically, though obviously that would be nice.
I understand where you are coming from. You need to address the root cause of the problem which is attachment, craving and to a lesser extent - aversion. If you have a strong practice foundation then adopting the eight precepts (which includes no eating after mid-day) can be very beneficial. If you don't have a strong practice then you could end up creating more problems. As you mentioned you are not yet a Buddhist then I will recommend that while you investigate Buddhadhamma to also investigate a health & wellbeing program that includes a calorie controlled, balanced and healthy diet and regular exercise. In time, your practice will complement your health and wellbeing program by directly addressing the root causes of your attachment to food and comfort eating.
kind regards,

Just ordered a 5 gallon Black Dog Ale kit from Midwest brewing supplies and I have some Saflager W-34/70 in my fridge. Would this be a good yeast to use or would I be better off with the Wyeast activator pack?
Take the 2-minute tour ×
Homebrewing Stack Exchange is a question and answer site for dedicated home brewers and serious enthusiasts. It's 100% free, no registration required.
If you plan to brew this as an Ale rather than a Lager then you will need to find a different yeast. The saflager W-34/70 strain is a lager yeast, and ferments best at 12C/54F. This will take longer to ferment and will produce a different beer, certainly less sweet compared to the description on the recipe.
I would get a packet of safale US-05 and ferment with that at 66F/19C. This will give you a clean tasting, balanced ale. If you want more malt forward, you can try US-04, or White labs WLP002. The ferment will also be easier since it will be quicker, and you don't need a temperature controlled fermentation chamber.

You are here: Home → Forum Home → Wynton Marsalis Discussion → Wynton Marsalis Discussion → Thread
i wnet to his gig at the brilliant corners jazz club (R.I.P) in saint paul MN.
me and a buddy sat about 3 feet away from him. we got to talk to him. it was killer.
thats awsom i think i started to play 10 times more than i was. by the way i play bass drums and piano. i have been known to throw some notes on my buddys trumpet
you guy are one of the few i now know that have met him
I got to talk to Wynton for the first time in 2000 at the ITG conference in NY and then again in 2003. I have now met up with him about 4 or 5 times and the last time I got to have a lesson with him for about 30 minutes in between sets at the Iron Horse club in Massachusetts. I found that his words are so powerful not only in performance, but also when he is teaching. He is so charismatic.
I met him after a gig on his Magic Hour tour. He was one of the coolest people I have ever met, and so charismatic.
Yeah I met Wynton after his concert at the Shnitzer in Portland OR. He's incredibly nice, and such a damn good trumpet player.
I have never spoken to him before. My son loves him dearly! Is there any way we could meet him? It would just blow his mind away! (my son's) My son plays alto sax, clarinet, berry sax and soprano. It would just make his life if he were to meet Wynton! He's sixteen and has plays sax since he was seven. He plays for two of our (Virginia) universities. (he loves jazz)
See Wynton's tour schedule in your area and…..
The best way to meet Wynton is to hang out and wait after one of his smaller gigs. Go near backstage door (like all good groupies do!)
Usually the LCJO have another engagement and rush off. On most occasions when Wynton plays with a smaller quin/sex tet he is more relaxed and avalable during breaks and after performing.
He is very cordial and ever so charming.
He rarely refuses anyone who waits to see him.
Your account is interesting. Wynton is lot of things to a lot of people. More of a lady's man and I guess I'll admit it- I am a lady.
He is into image. I have gotten this sense too-that he's lookin at nails, hair stockings, etc…
Not sure what it all means but I remember my mother use to turn us out as kids. As an adult I like to FEEL right.
To be in the right incidental place and to meet the right incidental people-I guess you have to look right too?
OR have a helluva way with your instrument. I have come to learn (not from being in the limelight like Wynton) that the public is into that.
I am a teacher. The kids look, their parents look, the principal looks.
IMAGE is you. One dresses how one feels one thinks-but YOU ARE in most instances HOW YOU LOOKS.
I' m not saying that Wynton is right but from getting the sense of him INSIDE and OUT you get the definate notion from not only who he is but HOW he is that these things count for something with him. (He is deep into BROOKS BROTHER'S CLOTHING)
You are right that you shouldn't be judged by how hard it is to get close to him. I appreciate that getting close to Wynton, that JAZZ isn't cheap!! Sometimes you have to forgo the beauty treatment in order to afford the ticket!!
Don't hold it against him. Just have a good, long and hard look in the mirror. Have a little talk with YOU about what he said meant to you. If it means something to you then learn from it. If it was about him, then I am certain he'll be brought to his knees on the issue.
Up Close AND Personal doesn't come without it's drawbacks!
"i'm glad someone acknowleges how concerned he is with his image".....Wynton loves and respects what he does, because of that he always wants to present himself a certain way, his comment to you was most likely meant as a joke, which is one of the ways he gets through to people, you (and it doesn't sound lke you have…) can't make a judgement on a person's personality from a brief encounter…I can vouch for the fact that he is one of the most down-to-earth cats I have met…..he loves eating at the Cracker Barrel when he travels, and knows the words to a TON of old country and western songs, he still eats , and this is fairly disgusting, coffee and crackers (mixed together ugh!) and can sing like Smokey Robinson….the public doesn't always see th e"real" guy, but gets a glimpse, his down home vibe is mixed with a bit of the exhaustion of trying to continuously push this music forward…it can some times be an interesting mix….are you really serious about jazz ? Post your email.
That's a good point, I think people(myself definitly included) forget how much pressure is on him. Tons of people find it easy to take shots at him for not playing a certain way or carrying himself in a different manner than many other jazz musicians. Its easy to forget that everything he does is to promote Jazz and to spread a love of this music. At that same time it must be so hard to maintain that image; to be on point all the time…I know I couldn't do it, there'e be times when i would really just want to go off by myself and practice some long tones to calm myself down and get away from it all. I wish the 'real' guy would show himself in public more, but I understand its hard to be real public with every aspect of your life…but it would make him more human to us. I dunno maybe i'm coming at this from a weird angle. My favorite musicians(who are still playing) are the guys who you couldn't even pick out on the street. There talent is hidden somewhere inside and you'd never know cause they look so unassuming. If i saw wynton on the street, even if i didn't know him, i think i'd look twice at him, he vibes. In any case i want to make sure that ya'll know I have much respect and am not talkin' any @!#$.
I think he is as "real" as he can be….probably more so than Duke, or maybe Bird..or someone like that, just do to the racial situation in America during their time… Jon, you have any online mp3s we can hear?
Once, I came to a large place by the water, where a multitude of trumpet players gathered…...and Wynton stood among us, and spoke of music, and played his trumpet, and asked the assembled trumpets to join him. But as it happened, many of the trumpet players did not have their trumpets with them (We were in the wilderness after all..Cleveland I think), and a great cry rose, and the trumpeters wailed and moaned..(without plungers.) Wynton rebuked us saying.."Oh ye of litte range."..and he took his Monette B993 and passed it among the assemblage, and all at once there were many Monettes, B993's, B994's, 997's , Anja's, Shakti's, Flumpets, Decorated Nirvikalpa Samadhi's, and 2000LT's and LTJ's, and XLT's..and many in Prana Configurations…and cornets and Piccs and other Monette Trumpets….and suddenly, the assembled trumpeters to these Monettes and made a joyful noise, with less effort, and in tune. Some played exerpts from "Gotterdammerung", and others blew on "Scrapple from The Apple"...and Wynton looked among the crowd, and smiled and spoke in double and triple tongues saying.."That's Cool."
Yo Juanmustard,
I understand what you mean and the whole 'real' thing, i guess i was slightly naive in thinking that. As far as any Mp3's not yet. I just played our concert with our Improv ensemble here at our school last night and they recorded it, but that @!#$ was pretty sad. I'm at a 'liberal arts' college which translates to a bunch of spoiled kids that don't work at anything…and that especially goes for the music kids. I'm one of the few people here who is actually trying to do something with jazz and music when they leave..so that translates to me practicing 4 hours a day and going to philly all the time to play with people that can actually play. If any songs fom the show are not disasters when i hear the play back i'll put one of those up (which will probably emerge years from now and embarrass the hell out of me). In a couple weeks I'm recording a demo/audition tape for Grad stuff, which i may or may not get into, as they say "trumpet is in season right now". I'm recording it with Charles Fambrough, and several other teachers here, so at least i'll have a killer rythm section, if i play anything interesting i'll find a way to get it up.
I havn't really attempted to put out any Mp3's yet partially cause everyone is all for critizing when they can't do better and have no advice for improvment, and it doesn't take a random person on the internet to let me know i could get housed by most people, haha
But i'll see what i can do, and if you have any Mp3's send em my way, i'm always game to hear anything and I understand all of our musical developments are works in progress
Go Guy-
You will be fine . I like your perspectives and I think you will meet Wynton. When you meet him again, you will find that he connects with you on a number of levels. He got YOU where it hurt! He made you think. Maybe it wasn't humour?
I think he has an inate ability to strike a cord in individuals. He touches..he connects with what is human nature!
Look out for him and I will you.
All good wishes for you and your trumpet!

Found Dior Addict @ the perfume store in the Caribbean. Wasn't sure @ first -- like to marinate in it before I decide. My friend said "we'll take it" before I took it on a test run. Best perfume decision ever made. Always get compliments from men, from women, from children, from small dogs -- ok, i exaggerate about the children & small dogs but you get my point!! It's a haunting (haunting in a good way) fragrance that envelopes me in happiness. A lovely, lovely scent.

Dior Addict is wonderful and sexy.............. great for travelling as it can be worn all day for every occasion. Men and women have commented on the scent. A sales-person in a department store followed me around until she was sure that I was the one who was wearing what she liked!
Written by Carol in Boca on June 03, 2014Read Review details ►
Dior Addict is the "best ever" fragrance! I've worn it for years. And will continue to do so. Thanks to your reasonable prices I can still afford to wear it.

I keep all my empty bottles not sure why, but this will be bottle number seven. Every time I spray it on I feel wonderful. People always tell me how good I smell. Best scent ever.
Written by P. Coco F. on December 14, 2013Read Review details ►
I LOVE LOVE...did i say mention LOVE this! It smells so warm and sweet but without smelling like pure sugar. It a comfort smell and my husband like to snuggle with me and just smell this on me. If your on the fence about purchasing this I was too....so glad I decided to give it a go!

- Student Spotlight: Webb Running Club
Student Spotlight: Webb Running Club
The Webb Running Club (WRC) got its start in the spring of 2011, when a group of students, united by a common interest in amateur competitive running, expressed their collective desire to sample the racing scene across Long Island and beyond. In acknowledgement of the cost of attending events and the potential for recognition and increased school presence, the Administration of Webb Institute bestowed upon the student body a generous annual budget for the pursuit of all things fleet of foot, and thus the Webb Running Club was born.
In short, we run everything from local community fun runs with fewer participants than there are prizes to 10,000-runner plus club-sponsored events. If there's sweaty glory to be had, the WRC is happy to enter the field! With approximately 10 regular participants (13% of the student body!), the WRC regularly competes in events of one mile to half-marathon distance. The 2012 fall running season will be the Club's largest yet, with students having flown the Webb colors in four races to date and with as many as six more events to come before the year is out.
The past few races have seen some notable performances, with Webb runners placing unpredictably well in their respective age groups despite their predictable lack of preparation. For the first race of the year, six Webbies completed the gritty Survival Race 5k Mud Run in Riverside, NY. Over the following weekend at The 35th Great Cow Harbor 10k Run, freshman Erin Hub '16 cleaned house, placing 1st out of 105 in her female 13-19 division while Connor Bennett '14 took 4th place out of 87 in the male 13-19 division. The WRC then geared up to race for the third weekend in a row, entering an 8-person team in the 27th Ocean to Sound 50 Mile Relay and placing 10th out of 26 teams in the open male division.
The WRC looks forward to regaling you with tales of gnarly hills, hearty camaraderie, and legendary finishes at future races, including the St. Joseph's College 5 Mile XC Invitational, the Hauppauge Power of One Family Fun 5k Fun Run, and this year's ING NYC Marathon (best of luck to Daniel Dwyer '13 and Justin van Emmerik '13 come November).
From the Webb Running Club, we hope you take care, run fast, and run well.

Friday, April 05, 2002Johnson City, Tenn. (April 5, 2002) - Matt Traylor's (Knoxville, Tenn.) first collegiate home run in the bottom of the eighth inning was the difference tonight, as East Tennessee State ended a seven-game losing streak with a 9-8 win Southern Conference baseball win over Georgia Southern. The win improved ETSU's overall record to 8-19, 2-8 in the SoCon. Georgia Southern fell to 21-13, 9-4 in the conference. Each team scored single runs in each of the first two innings, with Davis Burklin (Knoxville, Tenn.) and Jeremy Terry (Cumberland, Ky.) getting RBIs for the Bucs, with Terry's coming on his second home run of the season in the second. Georgia Southern took a 4-2 lead in the third off of ETSU starter Donnie Sharp (Oak Ridge, Tenn.), getting a pair of doubles from Matt Herring and Brendan Gilligan and an RBI single off the bat of J.R. Revere. ETSU answered with four runs in the bottom of the inning to take the lead for the first time in the contest. Caleb Moore (Knoxville, Tenn.) reached on an error, and with one out moved to second on a single by Brandon Cross (Bluff City, Tenn.). Kirk Keithley (Peoria, Ill.), who went 4-for-4 on the night, brought both runners home with a double to right center. He later scored on a balk before Terry and Michael Giroud (St. Petersburg, Fla.) rapped back-to-back doubles for the final run of the frame. Georgia Southern fought back, getting a pair of unearned runs in the sixth on a single to right by Herring with runners on second and third. In the seventh the Eagles put together four hits, including another RBI single by Revere, and a run-scoring groundout by Chad Hall that tied the game at 8-8. Leading off the eighth, Traylor deposited a 1-0 pitch from Jared Comstock over the wall in left. Jarrod Hyder (Elizabethton, Tenn.), who had come on in the sixth, made it stand up, getting the first two hitters in the ninth before hitting pinch hitter A.J. Zickgraf. Hyder then got a ground ball from Chris Walker to get the force at second to end the game. Hyder picked up his second win of the season, going the final four innings, allowing two earned runs. Brian Rogers started for Georgia Southern, but came out of the game after walking the first batter he faced due to a stiff shoulder. Comstock came in and took the loss, allowing 16 hits and eight runs in 7.1 innings. Keithley drove in four runs with his four hits, including ripping a pair of doubles to lead ETSU's 16-hit attack. Rocky Baker had four hits in five trips for GSU, driving in and scoring a pair, including swatting his sixth home run in the first. ETSU and Georgia Southern will continue the three-game set with a game tomorrow at Cardinal Park at 2:00 p.m.

About Our BETTY BOOP Merchandise
What can we say about our Betty Boop T Shirts? Boop-Boop-A-Doop! Few Cartoon Characters are more easily recognized than the iconic Betty Boop. The unofficial queen of cartoon merchandising, Betty Boop's feminine caricature has adorned countless pieces of retail since she first came to life in Comic Strips and movies during the Great Depression.
Betty Boop, whose revealing outfits and bubbly personality made her the first sex symbol of the animated screen, is a product of the more carefree days of the Roaring 20s. The star of several animated cartoon films in the 1930s, Betty Boop's popularity lay dormant for many decades before marketers rediscovered her image in the 1980s. Since then, Betty Boop T Shirts has far outdistanced her exposure in movies, with many folks not even aware of her cinematic creation. Check out our endless variety of superbly printed Betty Boop Tee Shirts, perfect for the special lady in your life! Always expect to get a high quality garment when you buy a Tee Shirt from us.

I used about 2 cups of chopped arugula, or about 2 generous handfuls before chopping.
I whisked together the extra-virgin olive oil, minced garlic, and red chili flakes.
Whole What Spaghetti with No-Cook Sauce of Tomatoes, Arugula, Olives, and Capers
(Makes 3-4 servings, recipe adapted slightly from Spaghetti with Tomatoes, Arugula, Capers, and Olives by Rose Gray and Ruth Rogers in Bon Appetit August 2006. I couldn't find the recipe online.)
3 large ripe tomatoes, chopped (the original recipe said to cut out the seeds, but I didn't)
15 Kalamata olives without pits, sliced
2 large handfuls baby arugula, chopped (about 2 cups chopped arugula)
2 T capers, coarsely chopped
3 T extra-virgin olive oil
2 tsp. finely minced or pureed garlic
1/2 tsp. red pepper flakes (more or less to taste, this was just a little spicy)
8 oz. whole wheat spaghetti (I love Garofalo Organic Whole Wheat Italian Spaghetti)
salt and fresh ground black pepper to taste
After 30 minutes, bring a medium sized pot of water to a boil, add a generous amount of salt, and cook spaghetti until it's barely al-dente (Pasta should still be a bit chewy. I cooked my spaghetti exactly 9 minutes for al dente, but follow package directions for cooking time.)
Drain spaghetti and return to cooking pot, then add the sauce mixture and stir to gently combine. Season to taste with salt and fresh ground pepper and serve hot.
This doesn't keep well in the fridge, so only make as much as you'll eat right away.
