"In the United States, more than 30,000 non-governmental organizations (NGOs), foundations, and citizens' groups are addressing the issue of social and ecological sustainability in the most complete sense of the word. Worldwide, this number exceeds 100,000. Together they address a broad array of issues, including environmental justice, ecological literacy, public policy, conservation, women's rights and health, population, renewable energy, corporate reform, labour rights, climate change, trade rules, ethical investing, ecological tax reform, water, and much more. These groups follow Gandhi's imperatives: some resist, while others create new structures, patterns, and means. The groups tend to be local, marginal, poorly funded, and overworked. It is hard for most groups not to feel palpable anxiety -- that they could perish in a twinkling. At the same time, a deeper pattern is emerging that is extraordinary."

We are using PSBI to adopt a baby from China. They have been wonderful! PSBI has helped us navigate the uncertainty of International adoption, and smooth the inevitable up's and down's. While I've observed other agencies engaging in questionable behaviors to place children, PSBI is honest, professional, trustworthy and always "does the right thing". It has been a pleasure working with them to grow our family.

Will it be Little Mix? 2NE1? Fifth Harmony? The Spice Girls? You decide!
The Destiny's Child superstar is determined to find the next great girl group — and if anyone can do it, it's her.
From Britney to Zendaya, check out our gallery of the most amazing Kids' Choice Awards Orange Carpet looks throughout the years to see how your fave celebs' sense of style evolved — or didn't.
Beyonce, Michelle Williams and Kelly Rowland do seem to truly cherish their friendships with each other, and for this we are grateful.
For better or for worse, these ensembles are permanently etched into the MTV Movie Awards' canon.
Beyoncé, Kelly Rowland and Michelle Williams reunited onstage on Saturday night (March 28) for the 2015 Stellar Gospel Music Awards.
Farrah Franklin, who was once a member of Destiny's Child, was arrested for disorderly conduct early Sunday morning, reports TMZ.
If you didn't get enough of Destiny's Child during their brief 2013 Super Bowl reunion, you'll want to check out Michelle Williams' new music video 'Say Yes.'
Destiny's Child fans were undoubtedly super psyched when their favorite female trio reunited on Michelle Williams' new gospel track, 'Say Yes.' And now the 'Say Yes' songstress herself is speaking out about the bond that she and her former DC ladies share.
Destiny's Child has (kind of) reunited on Michelle Williams' new song 'Say Yes!' The uplifting tune, which takes lyrics from a traditional Nigerian gospel hymn, features Beyonce, Kelly Rowland and even Solange Knowles on the track.

Twickenham to host Argentina v Australia in October
Twickenham will stage the Rugby Championship Test match between Argentina and Australia later this year.
Tournament organisers SANZAAR have confirmed Saturday, October 8 as the date for a fixture that will make history as the first Rugby Championship match to be played outside any of the competing nations - Australia, Argentina, New Zealand and South Africa.
The game, which is a 'home' fixture for Argentina, will conclude this year's competition. It starts on August 20, and also incorporates venues such as Sydney, Wellington, Buenos Aires and Brisbane.
It means that Argentina and Australia will be back at Twickenham almost a year after they met each other on the same ground in a World Cup semi-final clash that the Wallabies won 29-15.
SANZAAR chief executive Andy Marinos said:
While we witness the daring and exciting brand of rugby played by southern hemisphere teams on a regular basis, last year's Rugby World Cup well and truly showcased that skill and flair to the rest of the world.
Now, we are thrilled to announce that two of our national teams, Argentina and Australia, will be returning to the United Kingdom some 12 months later to contest what will be a historic chapter of the Rugby Championship.

Very nice place, excellent service and top quality food. Pricey but well worth the money if you can afford it.
From ambience to flavorful foods to the attentive staff, Legal Seafood at Northshore is a must re-visit. Everything is excellent. Go a bit earlier than usual, particularly for dinner. Amazing experience.
While waiting for our harbor cruise, we decided to go to the bar inside "Legal" for drinks, appetizers and coversation. Our bartender was friendly and made a great maitai. This is a wonderful place at Long Wharf.
Went to this place with a couple of friends. The sea food was really great, but even the steak ordered by one of my friend was super !!
Legal's fish is always fresh and fantastic but it's pricey. Sea scallops $34,Halibut $32, Haddock $24? Two entrees and two glasses a wine each and the bill was $130. I get that fish is expensive but this is not Boston its a mall and there are less expensive and as good seafood options within 20 minutes. Still, the food is... More
Have come here 3 times within the last few times. Each time the food is awesome, my favorite the garlic pasta so delicious and fresh. Besides that my favorite thing here is the sangria the absolute best around.
First I love Legal's seafood. I have going there for over 40 years. I now go there once to twice a week -- either to Peabody or Burlington. In fact I am off to Legal's in Burlington in 45 minutes. But, and it is a big but, I no longer eat their fried seafood. The chain made the decision to... More
Maybe it was our mistake to eat so late, but all the chowder came out cold. The kids enjoyed their meals but we went for chowder and was disappointed.
The food and drink was delicious and the service very friendly and helpful in the early part of the meal, then the server disappeared. No check, no water, no buddy.
I ordered the clams and was disappointed. Hardly any batter and without much taste. Folks who ordered the steak loved it. Portions were generous enough and waitstaff very pleasant. I would go for a lunch while shopping and order a burger plate, but would skip this one for dinner.

Comments about 'Obama: Trayvon Martin 'could have been me' 35 years ago'

What do they mean that Zimmerman identifies as Hispanic? He is half Peruvian isn't he? He is Hispanic. That is not just what he identifies as. Does Barrack Obama "identify as black?" He is only half black after all. Or is President Obama black, at least insofar as society is concerned? This whole racial spin on the case is sort of odd, especially where all of the articles state Martin was black (since he was), yet always use the phrase "identifies as Hispanic" when speaking of Zimmerman.

Is barack saying that he was a racist 35 years ago and referred to white people
using racist terms?
Because that's what Trayvon did.
Shame on Trayvon, barack, and all others who think racism means whites treating blacks poorly.

I think that Ifel O'f'a-sofa brings up a good point. Are we calling Martin a victim because he was black, or because he was lawlessly shot (which a jury decided to not be the case)? I think that far too many people see Martin as a victim solely because he is BLACK.

If I had a son, he would be like Trayvon...Trayvon could have been me..
Pandering to his constituency to the utmost degree.
Meanwhile, Sir Charles Barkley stated that the jury got it right based on the evidence presented. He blames the media for giving every white racist and black racist a platform to vent their ignorance.

obama is fanning the flames of hatred and violence. he used pot as a teen . sadly this is our leader. he needs to stay out of this . if he needs to speak on this then he needs to say 'we are all Americans no matter our linage. pull together and work side by side to build our country not tear it down. please end the protesting and violence . show our young children with unity we are one strong country. teach our youth respect and not racism. pray and ask for guidance'. ya that would be good.

Pres. Obama gave an excellent well-reasoned and thoughtful speech, and was
careful to not question the outcome of the trial but to talk about the
continuing challenges of racism, noting that there is and has been much progress
with each succeeding generation. It was also interesting what he said about
govt. vs society's role in combating racism.
While Pres. Obama is bi-racial, society identifies him as being "black" based on his skin color. No doubt he has long worn that label, whether it was his choosing or not. So, of course it is legitimate for Obama to note that he, as a black teenager, could've been Trayvon Martin.
Trayvon Martin's toxicology results showed only trace amounts of THC such that it may have been ingested days earlier and played no role in his behavior.
Trayvon Martin told his friend he went out to buy "Skittles and Arizona" for his father's fiance's son.

Thank you, President Obama, for discussing a controversial issue with calm
dignity and wisdom. I agree that we are getting better; we are working towards
being a more perfect union. For example, my great, great grandparents had a
"hanging tree" in there community. How horrific! We still have a long
way to go, but we can't lose sight of the fact that we are getting better
as a nation.
I also agree with President Obama's comments about talk. Talking -- or writing for that matter -- doesn't do a lot of good. We tend to talk and gripe to people who are very similar in beliefs. In fact, talk can actually exacerbate prejudice. It's honest soul-searching, self-reflection, and experience with others who are different than we are that helps us overcome prejudice and discrimination.

He was talking about how black people are viewed with heightened suspicion due to race, the way Zimmermann thought Treyvon was somehow suspicious despite being some guy with convenience store items talking on a phone. That's the comparison he was drawing, but half the comments are busy not paying attention to context.

So many of the hateful comments on this board so remind me of my uniformed,
bigoted ancestors.
For many reasons those older people from days gone by constantly used racial slurs against Japanese, Jewish, Italians, Mexican, Polish, Russian, Korean, Vietnamese, etc.
America must evolve beyond the racial slurs and hatred of those who don't see themselves as anything but white Americans.
As our thoughtful President stated today, "We are making progress".
Our children and grandchildren are leading the way in compassion and understanding in so many areas.
Hope I will live long enough to look back on this and find that my descendants are in denial that people ever acted in such a distasteful way towards anyone of any race.

OK, so I'll try this again:
Let's say that a white teenager was killed in an incident like this one. Then let's say that President Bush (or President Romney, as long as we're being hypothetical) said that the victim could have been him as a kid.
Would the people on this board be accusing him of "stoking hatred?" I'm guessing they wouldn't...

Very, very SAD that the most liked comments here leave out many facts and twist
Anyone who is not aware that Black sons are told by their fathers how to avoid being arrested and possibly shot, anyone who does not think that White people often show fear when they see a perfectly respectable Black man ---- educate yourselves, please!
The President's speech was heartfelt and moving, and suggests we solve a lot of issues that we have buried.
I especially invite anyone living in a very White area to educated himself on this, and not make assumptions based on your own experience alone.
If you went on a mission, and knocked on doors, some of the people showed you a little bit of the reaction that many Black people get every day.
........... and they do not have to be perfect to be American citizens

Since I'm not a black male and therefore have no life experience as a black male, I appreciate a black male taking the time to respectfully offer their personal knowledge as to whatever life experiences they have had as well as how those life experiences shape their world view.

"how does a 'white' person feel when a car comes up to them with a justice for Trayvon language with it."
Good point.
Black people across America who protest and riot because of the jury ruling are setting race relations back fifty years. This is not the way to bring Americans together or to make Americans sympathetic to the Black cause. White America cannot be forced to love and accept all non white races. There has to be a conscious effort to accept each other as brothers.
African Americans should thank their lucky stars they are here, despite all the challenges, and not in their country of origin... as should all Americans.

never mind that the FBI found no indication that Zimmerman was motivated by race, rather than merely suspicious behavior = indeed Zimmerman dated a black woman and has black relatives and is no more white than Obama is - the assumption that the ONLY reason anyone would be suspicious of an unknown kid in a neighborhood where crime had recently happened is because of his skin color - is Eric Holder/Al Sharpton/NBC/New York Times racialist stereotyping
Obama gave a good talk - then proceeded to prove he is the biggest panderer to racialism of all

No one here has spoken about why white people often feel uneasy around some
black males. There are reasons for everything. Black males are involved in a
highly disproportionate percentage of crime in this country. It's a actual
fact. And mentioning proven facts doesn't make anyone a racist or a
This particular fact means that blacks are at least somewhat responsible for some of the fear and distrust they sometimes receive, though not all of it. I don't mention this as an excuse for all such actions by non-blacks. But it nevertheless is a valid factor to at least consider.

From the article:
"And he raised the provocative question of whether Martin himself, if he had been armed and of age, "could he have stood his ground on that sidewalk" and shot Zimmerman if he felt threatened when being followed."
What ridiculous and dangerous logic. So, according to President Obama, a black person is justified in using deadly force on a white person just on the basis of fear of being followed, but a white person is not justified in using deadly force when actually being beaten by a black person. That seems to be the overriding message of all the protesters as well. Black people have different experiences, so anything they do is justified, and any acts of violence upon white people must be submissively taken without putting up a defense.
I think President Obama could have made a very important message by suggesting that people of any race should defend themselves with words, even heated words if necessary, but that escalation to physical violence leads to unpredictable and often tragic results, and Trayvon Martin would likely be alive today if he had followed that advice.

In response to Pres Obama's state ment that he could have been trayvon Martin 35 years ago - but the fact is he wasn't. Pres Obama took advantage of his education opportunities - was not suspended from school,and though he may have done minor things he should not have done - as do many teenagers - he succeded in becomeing a senator and President of the United States. He would have had the admiration and apporval of such great black leaders such as Booker T. Washington, Frederick Douglas, Martin King and yes how proud would be Bill Crosby! His recent address to this nation of all races, brought about by the unfortunate death of Trayvon Martin, could not, and did not unite or inspire many citzens of this coutry to live better and do better. In fact it had the opposite effect. As one who has lived long to have heard the Presidential addresses from Roosevelt, Truman, Eisenhower, Regan, and others, Obama's address was a dissapointment.

So over the last few days we've been trying to get lo to start sleeping in his pack and play instead of his rock n play which is where he's slept since coming home from the hospital. I figured it would be easier to start during naps instead of at night because i don't want it to mess with his nightly sleep schedule. I have been putting him in the pack and play once he's fallen asleep after nursing in the afternoon instead of the rock n play, he wakes up about 5 minutes later whining, I leave him in there stay out of eye sight and calmly say his name and sshhh him. He usually calms down for a minute and then spits out his bink, i wait until he starts crying before getting up and putting it back in his mouth again he'll calm down for a few minutes then he'll start whining then screaming, we're talking screaming where he holds his breath and is literally screaming like he's seriously injured. I try to put his bink back in his mouth and he doesn't want it, i try ssshhh-ing and talking calmly and quietly to him and he's still screaming so after a few minutes i pick him up, feed him and/or just hold him until he falls asleep again, then put him back in the pack and play and repeat. Do i need to stick to what I'm doing and it will get better or should i be doing something differently?? Help please!
Btdt moms, need some advice please!

No it's not gas. He's usually gassy in the morning, the cry is different and tummy isn't hard. He'll sleep on boppy (for naps while I'm watching) his rock n play and on our bed but he's having areally hard time getting use to the pack and play. Hope that changes for you soon so you can get some decent sleep
Posted 02/11/2014
I have done that a couple of times and he just gets to the crazy crying stage right away. Would you suggest trying that a few more times?
Posted 02/11/2014
Someone on here for something similar suggested putting a heating pad in the pack n play first. Get the spot you will put him in warm and then obviously remove the heating pad. It might help him feel more secure
Posted 02/11/2014
It could be that he is more comfortable sleeping at an angle. Try to set up the pack 'n play at an angle. This worked for a friend of mine.

Mine does the same thing, she will sleep in the rock n play or in her crib but not the pack n play. Maybe its uncomfortable?

Skip to comments.Hormel: Another All-Time High for the Spam Seller
Posted on 02/22/2013 10:31:50 AM PST by Kartographer
If we keep talking about it, one day we might actually jinx Hormel's (HRL) stock -- but we're not there yet.
Shares of the Austin, Minn., food company were up 1.6% Thursday to $36.74, a level that, if it holds, would be an all-time closing high. This came after the maker of Spam, bacon and canned chili raised its full-year profit forecast following a first quarter in which it met estimates of 48 cents a share. Sales of $2.12 billion were slightly under the $2.14 billion consensus.
(Excerpt) Read more at finance.yahoo.com ...
Preppers' PING!!
Five days into a semi-starvation themed military survival course, we were given Spam, one can to every four men. Best meal of my life.
I heard somewhere that Spam is the acronym for Synthetic Processed Artificial Meat.
The shelf life of Spam, as indicated by the Hormel website, is "indefinate". It also states that spam will be safe to eat a lot longer than the Enjoy By date, although the flavor will decrease over time.
Any sealed(canned) container will remain safe to eat until a few things happen.
1) A break in the seal, through punctures or through corrosion of the metal.
2) Any kind of swelling of the container, or a outrush of gas upon opening.
The first is self-explanitory. The second is from bacteria build up in the container when it was sealed. Sometimes in the commercial canning industry cans get through that have not been sterilized properly. I'm not sure the exact number of these "tainted" cans that get through, but they are miniscule in comparison to the safe cans that make it through.
Also, remember that heat will do damage to canned foods. Keeping that can of spam in the pantry will allow it to keep much longer than it would in say the trunk of your car. It will still be safe to eat, and provide you with needed protein and sodium in an emergency, but it won't taste quite as good.
Hope this helps.
I just bought 50 15-ounce cans of Hormel chili at $0.60 a can with the coupon plus the store special. It's not gourmet food, but if we get hungry, that's a lot of adequate meals.
I've read that during the second half of WW2, the Soviet army would have starved if we hadn't shipped them thousand of tons of Spam.
High fat and protein content, stores indefinitely and can be prepared/cooked in a multitude of ways. What's not to like?
Popular product in Hawaii also...
They make some great food.
Mu-su-bi: Essentially nigiri style. sticky rice pressed into the bottom of a spam can, a nice thick slice of grilled spam, maybe some scrambled egg, and wrapped with a narrow strip of nori. Wrap it up in plastic wrap. Stick a couple in a day pack and they are Hawaiian energy bars.
Opened a can last weekend and nearly barfed. The dogs wouldn't touch it either.
FYI, the 32 oz jars of mayo have shrunk to 30 oz.
Officially, it means "pork shoulder and ham"
Have eaten the stuff on a number of ocassions...While it's edible, it's probably at the bottom of my list of desirable meats...
A person can actually live on about $1.50 a day, food-wise.
You won't get fat, and you won't be eating any filet mignon, but you won't starve!
Add a can of spray cheese and box of crackers and you're on a show with Robin Leach.
MY wife won't touch it. Or even buy it. Last year she helped me get ready for a camping trip by shopping. I thought, "HA, here's my chance..."
She bought me turkey Spam.
If we have a SHTF scenario the first thing you want to do is shoot those dogs. Too high maintenance. If she can't make Spam into a tasty meal shoot the wife also.
Spam musubi is hugely popular with high school kids around here. I was thinking of learning how to make it.
When I was a kid, one of our favorite meals was fried Spam with pineapple sauce on top. Haven't had that in years and not the least bit interested.
Agreed. I would prefer not to, but a 20 pound sack of rice will provide 5 days of cheap calories for a family of four. Throw in some Spam, sauces, and canned veggies, and you've got an adequate emergency food supply for ten days. Repeat as necessary, substituting pasta, flour, corn meal, potato flakes, or other cheap starches for the rice, but still including a variety of supplemental foods. Add some seeds and a garden, and a way of harvesting small game for fresh meat, and it's sustainable.
Hormel also makes Stagg brand chili.
I love SPAM! Fry it and serve on white bread with Dukes Mayonnaise. Awesome!
I have alot of egg noodles in storage, along with those dried gravy packs.
Cook the noodles and gravy, toss in whatever veggies/cheese/meats you have, spice it up a bit, you can eat pretty well!
I never was a very big rice fan, but I have some of that too.
i love spam too. i mix up yellow mustard and brown sugar and put it on while frying. messy cleanup but good with eggs or on sandwiches, cooked or cold after being cooked. probably ok cold. i suspect the ham slices meal in C-rations was round spam.
If only there was some place http://www.spam.com on the internet that you could verify that rumor. Man that's a tough one.
The soy and mirin is a nice touch. I learned using an old style spam can that could be open at both ends. the new cans only have a bead on the end you open. the musubi makers can be found online if that is preferred.
Prick two small holes in the bottom of the new style spam can, use some of the fat from the fried spam inside the can like one would a muffin tin. press the 3/4 inch of sticky rice into the bottom of the greased can, press in the slice of spam. Turn the can over and rap it squarely on the counter and a single musubi should pop out.
Think there will be musubi in the petro45acp house this weekend.
I have a "30 day supply" of MREs (90 total), and we'll go through one MRE a day for the family along with other foods. I consider variety important. I can go over a year on stored food without ever having the same starch or meat more than twice in a week. And I'm with you on noodles and dried gravy packs - compact and enjoyable.
I picked up a taste for spam when I was in HI with USN. It is like a delicacy there where many survived on it during WW2. I like it grilled almost black. It goes well with reconstituted powdered eggs. I pick up a case or two whenever Costco has them on sale.
Growing up we had very basic food, for the 4 of us kids. Not once did my Mom ever get spam.
I have been trying to find Bacon-flavored Spam, but none of the local stores seem to have it...
The article didn't say what products were doing well. Or why. Just the company overall.
I wonder if it is spam or their chili or whatever else it is they make?
If the spam - then is it due to people prepping or due to the bad economy and inflation of meat prices in the grocery store?
I would imagine the latter since us the number of us preppers is not huge (that I know of).
I don't eat it as a rule because I'm saving those cans. Sliced Spam, browned in a skillet is simply good as a sandwich with mustard. Also fried with an egg is good. I wonder if people are opening the can and eating it just like that without browning it to produce that good flavor? I would not eat it straight out of the can unless I had no way of browning it and that isn't going to happen because I've got several different fuels to provide cooking - enough for years of browning Spam.
I still need to get Dak ham and can't pass the Hormel products in the grocery store without getting something. All that meat just sitting on the shelf.
Most find consuming SPAM straight-from-the-can unappealing due to its intense flavor. SPAM's easiest entry into one's diet is as a pork sausage, bacon, or ham luncheon meat substitute. Keys to this use are quantity, thickness of slice, and skillet browning. This will mellow and use its flavor to good advantage.
One use I particularly enjoy is a small amount of diced skillet-browned SPAM added to eggs as they are being scrambled in the same skillet. Seasoned to taste and topped with a little cheese, this results in a very tasty and hearty breakfast produced with little effort. And doing so satisfies my appetite for either bacon or sausage, eliminating their use for that meal.
My introduction to SPAM was long ago. Though I didn't care for it then, I revisited it as part of my ongoing search for tasty, nutritious, economical, long shelf-life, pantry food-stock which I could easily obtain and readily work into my consumption rotation. SPAM and other brand equivalents met and exceeded my requirements. Not only was this unexpected, I was pleasantly surprised that less of it was required than the fresh foods it replaced.
Indeed, I have been exploring other canned foods of my youth with similar results. Most of these foods saw wide use in WWII. Served unmodified from the can, they are blandly pleasant and soon boring. Modified with seasonings and additional ingredients they become tasty meals. Most have less expensive store brand equivalents indistinguishable from the original. And these too are quite useful pantry food-stocks.
So, as you can see, I endorse SPAM along with its WWII canned contemporaries as essential to the well-stocked food pantry necessary for comfortable rural life. Given SPAM's and these others' long shelf-lives, they should not only be integrated with a normal diet, they should also be part of anyone's emergency and survival supplies considerations.
Given Hormel's rising fortunes, this is likely already happenning world-wide.
"I love SPAM! Fry it and serve on white bread with Dukes Mayonnaise. Awesome!"
You have to be crazy - Spam calls for mustard - if you listen you can hear the Spam saying, "Use me with mustard."
Dice one can of SPAM or a DAK Ham
Two #2 or #2-1/2 cans of cut yams (I drain mine)
One 16 oz. can of one othe the in following (packed in juice preferably)fruit cocktail, pinapple, peches (I don't drain)
Add a bit of brown sugar and a cinnamon to taste
bake, mircowave or I've cooked it in on the stove or over a fire in a pan while camping.
Just recently tried some Hormel tamales. Those were actually fit to eat!
There are 6 in a can, and one serving is 2 tamales.One serving is 140 calories. Hotted up some beans and flavored them with chili powder, cumin, garlic, oregano, and had some veggies on the side with one tortilla, and it was a good meal.
Here is a wonderful tasting dish I use with cut up bites of ham and the Spam would substitute:
Hawaiian Ham Supper
One box of Uncle Bens white and wild rice with seasoning packet (or use regular white rice or instant rice if that's what you have in emergency situation.)
Two cups or more of bite size ham (Spam) pieces.
One can pineapple chunks
Brown the ham (Spam) pieces with 2 tbsp. butter or other fat in an emergency.
Add the box of Uncle Ben's with seasoning packet or enough white regular rice or instant rice to equal a box which is about a cup of regular rice and two cups instant rice. If you use regular or instant, put in some seasoning like an Italian or French blend - not a hot pepper blend as this is a tasty sweetish dish.
Drain the liquid from the pineapple chunks and set chunks aside. Add enough water to the liquid to make 2 1/2 cups liquid (if using instant rice, just use 2 cups liquid).
Boil it until all liquid is gone. Add pineapple chunks and stir to make chunks warm/hot. EAT.
This is such a tasty meal with the Uncle Bens regular recipe wild rice box, I make it for people who visit and they eat it up. It makes a large skillet full although it doesn't look that way before it boils and takes up the pineapple juice/water.
I made it for my son when he was here this past Christmas (boy, did we have left over ham to use), and he just kept eating - I thought he was going to explode. It's so simple to do and yet so wonderful when it's ready. It looks like you have spent the day in the kitchen.
Your "SPAM or a DAK Ham" recipe sounds really good. I'm going to try it!
No it's the taste, and the price. It's a really expensive meat given it's size and lack of flavor. My mom had a lot of recipes that revolved around spam, I use most of them now, only I replaced the spam with kielbasa, now they taste good, and they're cheaper.
Wow. Looks like it would either be REALLY good or REALLY bad.
Have you tried any?
Can't find it locally, that's what I was saying...
Can order from Amazon or other places, but I ain't paying an arm and a leg for shipping.
I think it would be quite good. At least it would be more bacony than regular Spam, which is edible, but not great.

The owner was very reliable and helpful; a very friendly welcoming approach.... He went out of his way to organise the parking ticket for our car himself (minimal costing to us). A very nice freshly prepared candlelit breakfast! A good variety (we stayed 3 nights). Fold up bicycles available for guest use. We would definitely return to this bed and breakfast.
For improvement
We stayed with a 5 year old. If smaller children visit a stair gate may be appropriate as the stairs are windy and a bit steep. It would be worth investigating this before booking.
It would be handy to have some little slips of paper with the internet user name and password available (e.g. on the table where the visitors books are).

Hardwood Floors here in the Inn
Dubuque, IA was the lead mining captital of the world until the mid 1860's. As a result of this it was the law/common paractice around these parts up until the late 1800's that people use soft woods for their floors and save the hardwood for the lead mine shafts. The Mandolin Inn (Nicholas Schrup home) was built in 1908 and is one of the few historic homes in either Dubuque or Galena that has hardwood floors. Schrup was knighted by the King of Belgium in 1920 and wanted everyone that entered the home to know that he was Sir Schrup – note the German Cross Medallians on the Grand Hall floor. During the varied uses of the home over the course of time the beautiful wooden floors often had rugs glued on them in order to protect the wood – particularly during the period when it was a half-way house for juvenile delinquents and later when it was a college apartment/frat house. The nuns glued tile over the hardwood floor of the Ballroom so that the novice nuns could live there. The ballroom floor remains tile covered as it is currently used as a storage attic.

Architectural Walking Tour of the Jackson Park and West Eleventh Historic Districts – The Mandolin Inn is site #22
This tour starts on the hilltops that are part of the West 11th Historic District and then works its way to downtown. It takes 2 to 2 ½ hours. The hilltops do not have metered parking, whereas the downtown streets do, so you might want to leave your car on the hill and walk back to it at the end of the tour. Start at the corner of 11th and Prairie Streets. Local lore has Amelia Earhart spending a night at 596 W 11th in the 1930's. #1. 1295 (O) + 1209 Prairie Street (O, P) The exact building date of 1295 Prairie Street is not known, but some city records give the date as 1871. However, it is likely that Susan Lawrence, who owned the property since 1856, built the house before then. Gideon T. Stewart, proprietor of the Daily Times, bought the property in 1863 and city directories of the time note him living "on the bluff" and "on McDaniel's Hill". Former owners believed that the home was designed by A.O. Holland, based on similarities to the home he designed at 1298 Mount Pleasant Street. In 1880, James Wallis, wholesaler of dry goods and notions, purchased the house as a wedding present for his son and daughter-in-law, John W. and Mary Burton Wallis. The home remained in the Wallis family until 1947 and is still referred to as the Wallis home. Major additions took place in 1880, 1899, 1900, 1904, and 1910. The library ceiling and adjoining staircase wall have murals executed by Danish artist August Rasmussen around 1900. Roger and Paula Stenlund purchased the home in 1982 and spend the next 18 years restoring and remodeling it. They added a double garage in 1991 and a family room/sunroom two years later. The current owners have lived there since 2002. The central, square unit of 1209 Prairie Street with symmetrical windows, central entrance hall, massive columns, and low pitched roof are examples of the Federal style and was built around 1856 by H.S. Hetherington, one-time mayor. He purchased the land from Alfred McDaniel, who developed most of this area of Dubuque. The two story wing was added in 1869 and the sunporch in 1914. Prominent Dubuquer P.W. Crawford owned the home early in the 20th century. For 75 years, the McDonald family occupied the home. A.Y. McDonald established a manufacturing company after the Civil War and invented the monkey wrench and other tools for which he held patents. A native of Kentucky, Alfred McDaniel came to Dubuque in 1836 and immediately began to speculate in real estate. McDaniel eventually owned most of the land west of Main Street between 8th and 14th street, which he subdivided into building lots in 1853. McDaniel's subdivision today comprises the heart of the West 11th Street Historic District. Other socially and economically prominent Dubuque landowners associated with the development of the West 11th neighborhood include Jesse P. Farley, Henry S. Hetherington, and the first F.E. Bissell Take a right...Read More

I am a D R E A M E R. I have vivid dreams that are themed around purgatory.
I don't like following the rules. I think that they don't apply to me.
I will watch anything with Isabelle Huppert or MARLAN BRANDO or by David Lynch or JEAN-LUC GODARD or Wes Anderson.
