Going into Sunday's Primetime Emmy Awards has Claire Danes feeling a flurry of emotions.
The Homeland star, 34, who is once again nominated for outstanding lead actress in a drama series, calls her nod "a nightmare come to life" – but not because she isn't grateful for the acknowledgment of her hard work.
"If you lose, you have to cope with that sting, and if you win, you have to get up and say something eloquent and charming, and remember to thank your husband or your wife," Danes tells PEOPLE. "It's always the vital person you forget to thank. It's terrifying. And then you see the clock ticking. It's awful, that particular part of it."
But once those dreaded few minutes are over, "the actual ceremony and the celebrations and seeing everyone in their beautiful clothes is actually really great," she says.
This year's show, in particular, will be especially fun for the actress and her costars because "many of us got nominated, so we all get to go to the prom holding hands – if not literally, figuratively – together," she says. "We really are a very close group, so I'm really looking forward to that particular part of it."
Danes, who recently filmed a "nonsensical and absurd" Audi Smart Performer commercial, has finally let the success of Showtime's hit series sink in.
"I think the first season especially, we were in a bit of shock [when the show got nominated]," she says. "And then in the second season, we were still processing people's appreciation of it. And I think now we've finally had a chance to accept that we have settled [into the] public consciousness … and because of that, the Emmys seem scarier for some reason."
Adds the former My So-Called Life star: "I was just so dizzy and didn't know how to process it. Now I've had the time to do that. I think, oh s–t, maybe we won't win and maybe that'll hurt. I have time to consider that possibility, whereas before I was like, 'Oh, my, oh, wow, we're on the stage now. We're walking away with trophies, holy moly.'"
But unlike other critically acclaimed TV shows that came out charging before eventually losing steam, Danes doesn't expect Homeland's success to slip as the seasons progress.
"The writers hold themselves at this incredible standard, and every time I think they've maxed out their imagination, they come up with another wildly inventive, exciting script," she says. "I have to believe that we'll stay on this wonderful trajectory. Everybody on the show cares deeply about it, and we all love working hard to make it as good as we can."
The 65th Primetime Emmys will come to CBS Sunday, Sept. 22, at 8/7c. Come back to PEOPLE.com for complete live coverage and the best dressed stars!

This is one of the dishes I made for Bacon Camp SF 2010 - it got 4s and 5s from the judges, so is guaranteed to be tasty! If you're a fan of bacon or fruit, give it a try.
This was inspired by Jess's BLT cups (bacon cups filled with lettuce, sliced tomatoes, and fresh garlicky croutons) were a hit at 2009's Thanksgiving II: Bacongiving. Thanks, Jess!
ETA: and you can see some great BLT cups on Not Martha, too. Apparently trebuchet03's bacon placemat was an inspiration!
Step 1: Tools and Ingredients
2 lbs Bacon (long skinny pieces are better than short fat pieces)
Fresh basil leaves
Homemade aioli (substitute: store-bought mayo + lemon juice)
Fresh mango, cubed
Large avocado, cubed
1/4-1/2 cup powdered sugar
1 teaspoon cocoa powder
1 large onion, sliced into thin rings
1 tablespoon brown sugar
Tools & Materials:
muffin tin
aluminum foil
baking tray large enough to contain the upside-down muffin tin
heavy pot for frying bacon
splatter screen (very handy!)
cutting board
food processor (or blender)
oven (preheated to 500F)
I'll have the laser-cut stencils up sometime after Maker Faire. ;)
Guess what we are doing one night for starters.....
Thanks poster.
...fattening >_<
What a perfect way to go.... Bacon heaven, here I come!
And yes, I tried bacon icecream. I don't know how they do it, but I had some at a nice restaurant.
And I've dropped the temperature recommendation to 450F. 500 was due to my impatience. ;)
principle more than you, keep it simple silly. I think the chocolate pig thing is getting trite. I'd leave out the cocoa so I can taste the avocado and mango.
Probably not the healthiest thing. But I'd spend some time on a treadmill to eat some of those things!
Bacon cups are multi-purpose.

'Star Trek's' George Takei narrates powerful Holocaust piece by Schoenberg
In its "Harmonic Convergence" concerts this week, the Nashville Symphony Orchestra presents four compositions spanning the second half of the 20th century. Cellist Johannes Moser joins the orchestra for Shostakovich's "Cello Concerto No. 1" and actor George Takei reads the textual component of Schoenberg's "A Survivor from Warsaw."
Giancarlo Guerrero will conduct the Feb. 7-9 performances at the Schermerhorn Symphony Center.
"Harmonic Convergence" begins with Charles Ives' "The Unanswered Question" and concludes with John Adams' "Harmonielehre."
The Men of the Nashville Symphony Chorus perform with Takei in "A Survivor from Warsaw," which was written in 1947 by Viennese-born composer Arnold Schoenberg. It tells of people singing a prayer song in defiance of the guards brutally rounding them up for transport to a death camp during the Holocaust.
"That Schoenberg piece is a powerful piece and a moving piece," Takei said.
He first performed it last fall in St. Louis with the Arkansas Symphony.
The invitation came as a result of Takei's connection with Arkansas, where he spent part of his childhood in an internment camp for Japanese-American citizens during World War II.
Takei spoke by phone from New York City, his resonant voice giving a preview of his upcoming Nashville appearances. He's in New York working to bring "Allegiance," a musical exploring the consequences of the internment policy, to Broadway.
Below are excerpts from a conversation about that and how the legacy of those internment camps informs his approach to the Schoenberg piece.
You were between the ages of five and eight when you were interned, do you have specific memories of the camp?
I remember the barbed wire fence that confined me and I remember the tall sentry tower with machine guns pointed at us. I remember the searchlight that followed me when I made the night runs to the latrines from our barracks. These are very real memories, but to put it in context, I thought it was kind of nice that they lit the way for me…I was too young to understand.
What do you draw on for the Schoenberg narration, then?
Long conversations with my father when I was a teenager. Sometimes those conversations got very heated because I was an idealistic teenager reading civics books and American history books with all the shining ideals of our democracy. I couldn't quite reconcile that with what I knew to be my childhood. For my father, it was a whole different story, he was a man who suffered and struggled through those horrible years. He used to say: 'They took my business, they took our home, they took our freedom. The one thing I didn't give him was my dignity.'
When did you become involved with the musical "Allegiance?"
From the beginning. We had the world premiere at the Old Globe Theatre in San Diego…Now we're transferring to Broadway this fall.
I was fortunate enough to come across this wonderfully gifted composer/lyricist Jay Kuo. We hope that this becomes a movie as well and more people will see it, but you know Broadway is the biggest and most important stage in America and that's been our goal from the time that we started developing this musical.
How often do you perform these pieces with symphony orchestras?
I do one every few months. The other symphony I do is the "Lincoln Portrait" by Copland. There's another symphony I do a lot of, it's sci-fi themed and of course that's because of my association — that will be with me throughout my life, I'm sure — with "Star Trek." [Takei portrayed Hikaru Sulu in the original series and in six feature films.]
Isn't it funny that we got this far into the interview without mentioning that?
Which is refreshing actually. [Laughs.]

My Pop sent me this, thought some of you might enjoy it...
Farm Kid
Dear Ma and Pa,
I am well. Hope you are.
Tell Brother Walt and Brother Elmer the Marine Corps beats working for old man Minch by a mile. Tell them to join up quick before all of the places are filled.
I was restless at first because you got to stay in bed till nearly 6 A.M. But I am getting so I like to sleep late.
Tell Walt and Elmer all you do before breakfast is smooth your cot, and shine some things.
No hogs to slop, feed to pitch, mash to mix, wood to split, fire to lay.
Practically nothing.
Men got to shave but it is not so bad,there's warm water.
Breakfast is strong on trimmings like fruit juice, cereal, eggs, bacon, etc., but kind of weak on chops, potatoes, ham, steak, fried eggplant, pie and other regular food,
But tell Walt and Elmer you can always sit by the two city boys that live on coffee.
Their food plus yours holds you till noon when you get fed again.
It's no wonder these city boys can't walk much. We go on 'route marches,' which the platoon sergeant says are long walks to harden us.
If he thinks so, it's not my place to tell him different.
A 'route march' is about as far as to our mailbox at home.
Then the city guys get sore feet and we all ride back in trucks.
This will kill Walt and Elmer with laughing. I keep getting medals for shooting. I don't know why.
The bulls-eye is near as big as a chipmunk head and don't move, and it ain't shooting at you like the Higgett boys at home. All you got to do is lie there all comfortable and hit it.You don't even load your own cartridges.They come in boxes.
Then we have what they call hand-to-hand combat training. You get to wrestle with them city boys.
I have to be real careful though, they break real easy.
It ain't like fighting with that ole bull at home
I'm about the best they got in this except for that Tug Jordan from over in Silver Lake.
I only beat him once.
He joined up the same time as me, but I'm only 5'6' and 130 pounds and he's 6'8' and near 300 pounds dry.
Be sure to tell Walt and Elmer to hurry and join before other fellers get onto this setup and come stampeding in.
Your loving daughter,

boy aint that the truth. we had a foster kid go to boot camp last summer, he brought back videos of it. what a joke, baling hay would have killed 90% of them kids. let alone do the chores and milking before and after hay.
working on a sewer and water pipe crew is 10 times more work than what he told us about. he ran alot more. big deal he didnt have to carry 140 lbs of concrete in 2 pails through dry sand up and down banks of the deep ditches. or anything like that. and the drill sargents couldnt even yell at them kids. I was screaming at the tv watching the video telling them kids to move there lazy ars.
walking into the union after a couple weeks of work they asked me what i did before this, told them milked cows in a stantion barn and fed with wheelbarrows all my life. they said they guessed something like that.

I'm trying to setup a system on my board's roleplaying forums that lets our users exchange a fake-in-board currency (Rings).
What I want it to do is allow people to login, and just trade their fake money around. Each user would get a starting balance, and it would deduct from that.
Does anyone know of a script that might do the trick, or even someone program it?
It does not need to make use of the board's user system. Separate accounts would be added by an admin.

It's All Politics
Among Israelis, Romney Appears The Favorite
Originally published on Sun October 28, 2012 8:51 am
Israelis view the American presidential election much the way they tend to view most issues: What does it mean for Israel?
And by a wide margin, Israelis seem to believe that Republican candidate Mitt Romney would be more attentive to Israel's interests than President Obama.
The Peace Index Poll, commissioned by Tel Aviv University and the Israel Democracy Institute, found that Romney was favored 2-to-1 by Israelis back in August.
Such pro-Romney sentiment is rare outside the U.S. A recent BBC poll of 21 countries found Obama favored in 20, with Romney taking only Pakistan.
Israel was not included in that survey, though, and Israelis are long used to being a prominent — if not the dominant — foreign policy topic in U.S. presidential campaigns.
In Monday's foreign policy debate between Obama and Romney, Israel was mentioned more than 30 times — far more than Europe, Afghanistan or the Arab Spring, let alone Africa or Latin America.
The only country mentioned more often than Israel was the one the Israeli government keeps trying to draw the world's attention to — Iran.
Obama has what is widely seen as a cool relationship with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, and many Israelis have never warmed to the American president.
Romney has repeatedly accused Obama of not being supportive enough of Israel, accusing the president of having "thrown allies like Israel under the bus."
The Obama administration has denied this, saying the security relationship between the countries has never been stronger.
Israeli conservatives have long advocated closer ties with the GOP.
But former Mossad spy chief Ephraim Halevy, this past week in The New York Times, noted that "whenever the United States has put serious, sustained pressure on Israel's leaders — from the 1950s on — it has come from Republican presidents, not Democratic ones."
Nevertheless, the verdict seems clear: If the race were up to Israelis to decide, Mitt Romney would be the next president.
There are many American citizens living in Israel who will cast ballots, and get-out-the-vote activities are under way.
One purportedly nonpartisan organization, iVoteIsrael, has come under fire for allegedly favoring Romney, a charge the group denies. Whomever they're voting for, there are indications that more Americans in Israel are voting this year than in past contests.

When would you use one over the other?
The different semantics between hard and soft links make them suitable for different things.
Hard links:
Symbolic links (soft links)
The point of both types of links is to provide a way to make a file appear in two locations at the same time. This has a lot of uses. 9 times out of 10 you want to use symbolic links.
Symbolic links, or "symlinks" work a little like Windows shortcuts. The contents of a symlink are a pointer to the real location of the file/directory. If you delete the real file, the symlink will become "dangling," and won't work. Deleting the symlink does not delete the real file. You can have as many symlinks to a single file (or even other symlinks) as you like.
Unlike Windows though, they work on the filesystem level, not shell or application level, so pretty much any application will "follow" symlinks as expected.
Hardlinks work even on a lower level. A hardlink is an actual, physical on-the-filesystem-level directory entry of the file. Technically, a directory entry is a hardlink, thus each file has at least one hardlink in a directory somewhere. Hardlinks are not separate from the file they point to; if a file has multiple hardlinks in different directories, deleting the hardlink with utilities like
I can't think of situation where use of hardlinks is common, or even needed, unless you intentionally want to prevent the files from getting deleted or are doing some weird low-level work with partitions or other filesystem related things. EDIT: There's great ideas in the other answers to this question, though!
Hard links are very useful for disk-based backup mechanisms, because you can have a full directory tree for each backup while sharing the space for files that haven't changed — and the filesystem keeps track of reference counting, so when the last reference to a given version goes away because the backup was expired/removed for space reasons, the space it used is automatically reclaimed. Some mail clients also use it for messages filed to multiple folders, for the same reason.
Hard links are just references to the same disk spaces, thath the 'why' you cannot hardlink something in other filesystem.
Symlinks are files linking other files (as Windows shortcuts), maybe in the same filesystem, maybe not.
EDIT: I will explain something more. Every file that exists has a minimum of 1 hard link. Hard links are the way to access the content of an inode of the filesystem. You can obtain the inode number of a file with
Thanks @geekosaur for this reference:
and this (edited):
"hard" links share the same inode
If I edit either foo or foolink there is only one file and it will be updated. If I remove only one of the filenames, the inode and data will persist, foolink will survive.
If I were to create the same, but with a "soft" or symbolic link, then There's one file, one inode, and a new file with its own inode pointing to the first.
If I edit either foo or foolink there is still only one file and it will be updated.
If I remove only the symlink, the inode and data will persist. If I remove foo, the data will be gone, the symlink will persist but point to a non-existent file.
A soft link points to another pathname. That pathname may or may not actually exist. The path isn't looked for until you access the symlink. If the path doesn't exist when you try to access it, you have a broken symlink.
With a hard link, you have one file with multiple names. You can't say that one of those is the "real" file and the others are just a link to it. They are all equal. There's no such thing as a broken hard link the way there are broken symlinks.
Hard links work only within a single filesystem. If you want to link to a file on a different filesystem (e.g. a different partition or a network share), you must use a soft link.
Another big difference is what happens when you delete a linked file. If you delete one of a pair of hardlinked files, then create a new file with the same name, you'll have two separate files (the link is gone). If you delete the target of a symlink and create a new file with the same name, the link will point to the new file.
A hard link will keep a file on disk until all hard links to it, even the first (a "filename" is technically a hard link), have been deleted. A soft link can be left "dangling" until the file it point(s/ed) to is replaced.

Carr's Table Water biscuits lose Royal stamp of approval
Last updated at 15:35, Friday, 02 March 2012
Changing tastes in the Royal household mean one of Carlisle's most famous exports can no longer boast of being in the Queen's cupboards.
Carr's Table Water biscuits – baked in historic works at Caldewgate – have proudly carried a crest as supplier to the Royals, first awarded in 1841.
But it is a claim the brand can no longer make, having lost its warrant of being "By Appointment to HM The Queen".
Management at United Biscuits, the firm which now makes the product, say they are sad at the move but insist Carlisle's connections to Buckingham Palace have not been lost.
And they have taken the opportunity of losing the warrant to instead boast of the biscuits' historic roots as a product of the city, using its crest where that of the Queen would once have sat.
A United Biscuits spokesman said the Carr's brand no longer carried the Royal Warrant due to "lower demand in the Royal household".
He added: "The Carlisle factory retains its Royal connections because it also makes McVitie's and Jacob's products and these brands will retain the Royal Warrant.
"McVitie's was also proud to make the chocolate biscuit cake for the wedding of the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge last year.
"While we are sad to have lost the warrant, the business is delighted and honoured that Carr's products now carry Carlisle City Council's coat of arms, which reflects the brand's heritage and its more than 180-year association with this historic city."
Queen Victoria was the first Royal to give Carr's Water Table Biscuits her seal of approval, granting its initial warrant in 1841.
Table water biscuits became so popular because water was used instead of fat to blend the dry ingredients to keep the biscuits fresh on long voyages.
They were created by Jonathan Dodgson Carr, the son of a Quaker grocer, who started baking using a brick oven.
He was originally from Kendal, but set up in Carlisle, first in a shop on Castle Street.
Carr bought a piece of land near the canal basin in Caldewgate for £800, built his factory and the Carr's biscuit works was born in 1835. It has been there since and is now part of the United Biscuits food empire.
That factory currently employs 800 people., making the historic table water biscuits and a range of other biscuits, including fruit shortcake, custard creams, bourbons and ginger nuts.

Must agree with Pat Tilney, a question that has not been answered. What has happened to Carrs high bake water biscuits ? Don't they make them any more? Why not? They were the best, bring them back please!

Huron High School Class of 2013 Graduation
In years past , always had Fred congratulating students. No picture of the one getting $500+ per day to do same job ????
Well 1luckydog you must not have looked at all the pictures. If you had you would have found the interim sup't in picture slides numbered 227, 230, 237, 256, 257, 271, 272, 281, & 282. I was just surprised to see the other two board members present. Seems they only want to show up to do the easy & public work.
One last comment because I cannot stand the slanting of the facts by Fox supporters. You, 1luckydog, pointed out that the current sup't is making 500+ per day.
A fact you can check on Buckeye Institute at www.buckeyeinstitute.org/ at the time Fred was fired he was making 114789.00 per year (this figure does not include fringe package just straight salary). He was to work 260 days which comes out to $441.50 per day. So the current salary of 500+ (a figure that DOES include fringes) is very comparable to peers in similar positions. Included in Fred's salary of $441.50 per day is his fringe package, and 20 vacation days that accumulate, personal days, sick leave which accumulates and 13 paid state holidays. Add to that mileage to and from his girlfriend's place of employment or designated rendezvous spot and Fred had a pretty good gig! If I were him I would be fighting to get that job back!
Congratulations to all the graduates!!
Congrats, tigers! Hmmm...I think I still have my red and white gown still somewhere. How the time flies.

New and rapidly evolving digital technologies are having an enormous impact on the publishing industry and have created the need for educational publishing programs to adapt, innovate, and keep pace in order to produce better-prepared graduates. Anne Willkomm, director of the graduate publishing program at Rosemont College, was recently featured and interviewed about these changes and the challenges they pose in an article appearing in Publisher's Weekly.
In his PW article, Preparing for the Future, reporter Gabe Habash looked at eight highly-regarded publishing education programs across the country, including Rosemont's, and explored how these new and fast-changing digital technologies have forced programs to substantially and quickly retailor their curricula in order to stay on the cutting edge.
As pointed out in the article, one of the many exciting things Rosemont College has done to respond to the challenges posed by digital is to have students learn about and create book trailers for soon-to-be released books at the nearby WHYY TV studios in Center City Philadelphia.
Individuals who are looking to embark upon or enhance their career in publishing must look at the current trends in the marketplace and find the best program to fit current industry needs. That's why leading publishing programs are revamping their offerings to give their students the new skills and experience that publishers are increasingly demanding when hiring employees – including IT, social media, web design, electronic content management, mobile technology, and video production.
According to Willkomm, while the publishers with whom she has spoken are talking digital, "most still don't have specific requirements for potential employees," though, Willkomm says, "no doubt that will come." And while digital advances are pushing publishing programs to incorporate these technologies more and more into their curricula, she and other educators stress the importance of sticking to the fundamentals and not losing sight of the basics: including good old-fashioned writing skills.
"I think the thing I am seeing the most is a need for students to slow down," she says in the article. "In this age of instant gratification and need for content, there are so many errors. Now there is the added benefit of being able to quickly correct a typo, a misspelled name, or flat-out incorrect information, but I am trying to pass onto my students that accuracy is still important. We can't simply rush to post content and worry later about accuracy, both at a mechanical level and at a content level."
Willkomm and the other publishing educators surveyed in the PW article concur that digital technology will only continue to affect how books are published and distributed. "I loved the PW piece because Habash really dove in to look at how educators are preparing future publishing professionals for this kind of continued change," says Willkomm.
And does all this technological change mean the death of books as we know them? Willkomm doesn't think so.
"There is such rapid change going on in publishing, (but) books are not going to disappear," said Willkomm. "As Stephen Fry said, 'Books are no more threatened by a Kindle than stairs are by an elevator.' Still, digital is the wave of the future and I do believe a balance will be found."
Rosemont College's Master of Arts in publishing program is prepared for this exciting new era in publishing by offering the perfect balance of the innovative and the traditional. Rosemont's new graduate ePublishing certificate provides the tools needed for students to master today's rapidly changing technologies and succeed in a variety of ePublishing sectors. The graduate certificate in ePublishing can be earned in addition to the M.A. in publishing or as a stand-alone certificate.

Force India failed to score a single point in the United States GP, slowest overall excluding Marussia and Caterham...
Force India failed to score a single point in the United States GP, slowest overall excluding Marussia and Caterham...
Force India:
Paul di Resta: "I made a good start and was in reasonable shape for the first stint. But it soon became clear that we were struggling for pace and not really in the zone with the tyres. We were pushing to do a one-stop race, but the tyre wear was a bit higher than expected and I ran out of tyre performance with nine laps to go. It was hard to defend my position so I had to make a second pit stop. It's a shame because we were quite optimistic before the race and we thought the warmer weather might play into our hands. So it's a bit disappointing, but we will pick ourselves up and look to end the season with a better result in Brazil next weekend."
Adrian Sutil: "It feels like I ran out of luck this weekend. Up until Saturday morning I was looking competitive and was happy with the car, but all of that promise disappeared with the problems we had in qualifying. In the race I made a good start, gained a few positions and was racing ahead of Maldonado on the back straight. For some reason he hit my left rear wheel and I immediately lost control of the car and crashed into the barriers. I don't really understand why he was so close to me because the track is so wide there. I stayed on my line and there was a lot of space to the right and the left. So it was an early finish and a very disappointing day."
Jules Bianchi: "It's fair to say that today was the toughest race of the season for me. With just the one pitstop, switching from the Medium to the Hard tyre, it was a really long race with so much of my focus being given to looking after the tyres. Anyway, the start was good - enough to put me ahead of van der Garde - and then I'm really happy with the race I drove as we were easily able to keep both Caterhams behind. I have to say a big thanks to the whole Team as there has been a great deal of work not only to help us resolve the problems of the weekend, but also to bring new parts to the car and make them work to good effect at this late stage of the season. A really good race for us today and we go into the final race in Brazil next week able to feel more confident."
Max Chilton: "Heading into this race with the drive-through penalty to serve, I was always aware that this would be a tough and lonely race for me. I lost 15 seconds in the pitlane and the reality is that you are simply going to hit the blue flag phase much earlier and pay a hefty price for that in the second half of the race. I'm pleased with the job I did to try to play catch-up and I think my fastest lap reflects that. Unfortunately the other factors defined my race. On the bright side, I've finished yet another race - my 18th out of 18 - and the car is performing well versus the Caterhams, so we'll throw everything we have at the final race next weekend."
Giedo van der Garde: "Off the line I passed Chilton and was right behind Giedo and Bianchi at the end of the first lap. However, the car balance today was the same as it's been all weekend, just not quite there, which meant I couldn't push at all. I was keeping up with my teammate for the whole race, up to the drive-through in the last couple of laps, but we just didn't have the pace today to put in the normal sort of race performance we've seen for most of the season. We have the chance to bounce straight back in Brazil, and we'll work hard over the next few days to understand what we need to do to find a setup that allows us to get the most out of the package. I had my highest finish of the season in Brazil last year so we'll aim to sort out the setup issue and be there to take advantage of anything that comes our way."
Charles Pic: "I didn't have a good start and was behind Bianchi at the end of the first lap. From there it wasn't possible to pass him as, even though I had a quicker car round the whole lap, his straightline speed was better than mine and every time I got close my front tyres started graining because the car was understeering a lot so I couldn't make a move past him stick. Sometimes it's like this, there's not much you can do when you're so evenly matched. Despite how today went, overall it's been a good week in Austin. The track is good and the atmosphere in Austin and at the circuit is amazing, but obviously for us we need a bit of a crazy race to be in with a chance of reclaiming tenth in the Championship, so now it goes down to the wire in Brazil. We're ready, we just need to see what happens."

The gorgeous new, five-floor Burberry store on the Mag Mile (check out these snaps of the gorgeous retail emporium here) is our latest local shopping obsession. Since this city hasn't had an opening like this for quite some time, the Brit brand offered up a spectacle of trench coats, simulated rain, and tunes from the other side of the pond to help spread the word.
Even though we've been dodging our own rain drops lately, Burberry brought in its own "storm" for 700-plus guests at the store's official opening. Gorgeous models armed with umbrellas snapped their well-manicured fingers, mimicking the sound of rain as a "rain shower" of eco-friendly confetti sprinkled down from above. Lay your hungry eyes on the proceedings here. But what really excited us wasn't the cocktails, Billy Zane (in the house!), or Brit musician Carl Barat from the Libertines (also in the house). It was our own beautiful Chicagoans.
As a part of Burberry's Art of the Trench campaign, some of Chicago's hottest tastemakers (Jessica Zweig, Seth Putnam, Azeeza Khan, and more) were snapped wearing the brand's iconic coats for photos that appeared on huge LED screens throughout the store.
Sounds like fun, right? Well, don't worry — you didn't miss out. Click through to see some of the city's most familiar faces, U.K. style!

1 pound
ground beef
onion, chopped
4 cloves
garlic, minced
1 small
green bell pepper, diced
1 (28 ounce) can
diced tomatoes
1 (16 ounce) can
tomato sauce
1 (6 ounce) can
tomato paste
2 teaspoons
dried oregano
2 teaspoons
dried basil
1 teaspoon
1/2 teaspoon
black pepper
I have used this for years. I have played around with it a little and found that a teaspoon of sugar cuts the acidity of the tomatoes. And if you want to make it taste a little richer, stir in a quarter cup of cream before serving. Also, I drain grease off the beef before adding any vegetables, that way you aren't pouring out all your garlic/onion flavour!
Easy, painless, and tastes good. I will def use as a base recipe again. Maybe it's in the asian in me that likes to marinate everything... but if you marinate the beef in 2 tb of soy sauce, 1 tsp sugar, 2 tsp of Worcestershire sauce and a 1/4 of salt for 15 minutes before sauteing...it adds a world of difference to the flavor in the beef. It no longer just just tastes like tomato sauce drenched in flavorless meat. Also add salt and pepper to the meat (to taste) while sauteing with the onions and garlic and peppers before adding to the sauce.

I love this recipe and it has become my favorite with a couple of small changes. I like my sauce more creamy with the tomatoes less chunky, so I use "crushed" instead of diced tomatoes. I love mushrooms, so I also add a 7 ounce jar (drained) of button mushrooms (usually Pennsylvania Dutchman available at my regular grocery). The button type mushrooms are good because they are easy to see in the sauce and can be left off the spoon for those eaters who don't like them.
This recipe was very easy and tasty. It's a really hearty sauce and next time I'll add sauteed mushrooms. I'll certainly make it again!!
We used this recipe for a benefit where we fed over 400 people, everyone enjoyed it. We increased the ingredients by 500, did the math, added a little more beef than what it called for, but it turned out great and was fairly easy to do. If I am crazy enough to do another benefit, we will use this recipe.
Five stars for a quick, easy, delicious recipe! I DID use 1 1/2 lbs beef and a large can (29oz) of diced tomatoes (I wanted a little extra sauce), but those were the only changes. Thanks to Hank's mom!
This would be a great recipe if you left the peppers out. Otherwise it is perfect
I absolutely loved this spaghetti sauce and so did my father and brother. I used "Italian Seasoning", but other than that, I didn't have to substitute anything.
