As it is with many people these days, my computers and my portable devices have become audio entertainment centers. I have the Logitech Z305 speakers on my primary computer, a Lenovo laptop, but while they produce excellent sound, they aren't very loud. Logitech provided me UE Air Speaker to review and I am glad to have the opportunity to work with because the Air Speaker fills a need.
The Logitech UE Air Speaker, on the other hand, is perfectly capable of filling a 400 - 500 square foot area (living and dining areas and kitchen) with clean, distortion-free audio. Bass response is surprisingly good. When testing with a Windows laptop, I used the Air Speaker with a third-party program called AirFoil that provides AirPlay functionality on the Windows platform. AirFoil provides an equalizer capability. I tweaked the settings just a bit and got pretty solid bass from this compact unit.
The Air Speaker is a nice piece of design. The exterior case is plastic, but very sturdy. The unit measures about 7 x 15 inches and is 4 inches deep. It fits nicely on a crowded shelf. It is on the heavy side: I would estimate 5 pounds or better. The front is fabric covered and does not seem to be a dust and debris magnet. The back of the unit has two bass ports and a row of connectors. On top, there is a power switch, mute switch and volume control.Read more ›

Imagine getting premium quality sound from something so small - the Logitech Airplay Speaker does just that! The unit itself has a sleek design and will add a distinct flavor of elegance to any decor.
You can enjoy playing your music in a variety of ways. You can pop out dock to connect your iPhone or iPod. You also can use the 3.5 mm auxiliary input for other brand MP3 players (cable is not included). If you use the dock it will also charge your Apple device at the same time. There is plenty of space to dock your device without removing it from a cover or case. Finally my favorite way of using the speaker is by using the Airplay feature via your WiFi network. Once you install the UE Air app (pops up automatically when I connected my iPhone to the speaker's dock) you can control the volume, treble and bass controls directly from your Apple device. Just use the Airplay feature on your Apple device and "wa-la" it is instantly playing on the Logitech Airplay Speaker. This works on all our families Apple products - iPod Touch, iPad, and iPhones. Lets not leave out the iMac and Windows computers that have iTunes installed on them. You just need to verify you have the most current iTunes update (10.6) and you will see the Airplay icon on the lower right hand corner of the iTunes application screen.
Overall this a small speaker that delivers a huge sound. You will be quite impressed, I surely was. Logitech for me has always been a brand that I can rely and trust, they never seem to stop amazing me with what they come up with next. Comes with a one-year warranty.
There are other reviews with specific instructions on how to pair this speaker to your wifi network so I won't get into that, it's relatively painless using the app. I did find a solution to the intermittent dropouts that I was experiencing and other reviewers have noted as well so let me get into details about that:
A disclaimer: I am not a wifi engineer. If you are a wifi engineer, that's awesome you probably don't need this advice and/or will find errors in my analysis. But I'm a technically competent guy who had a problem and solved it and wanted to share that solution with others.
Initially I set this speaker up to connect to my primary wifi network which is 802.11ac from my Airport Extreme in the basement and 802.11n from one of my Airport Expresses setup as a network extender upstairs. I have 6 Airport Expresses upstairs hardwired to the network with audio out from each one connected to a separate audio zone on my whole-home audio amplifier. This gives me AirPlay to each room of the house. Wifi was turned off on 5 of those Airport Expresses. The UE Air Speaker is placed in our master bath (where we don't have in-ceiling speakers) and worked well, but when I would play from my iPhone I would experience audio dropouts every 5 minutes or so. This speaker is an 802.Read more ›

I have lived in Columbus since 1986. My wife, Rabiab, and I love the area and never plan to move. We have four sons, all grown, and three married. We also have five grandchildren. I am retired from the Air Force and now teach technology classes at MUW. Rabiab is retired from United Technologies and now keeps up with our rental homes.
Richard Holden purchased this house in 1988
The vacation rental was our home, but we bought and moved into the house of one of our sons in 2010. The move was partially because our son had to leave and houses were not selling well. Also, his house was smaller and we were ready to downsize. Turning our former home into a vacation rental then became a logical choice since we did not want to sell it.
We love the peaceful, country setting and spacious yard with private, in-ground pool. We occasionally see deer in our backyard on the hill near the gazebo. The sunroom and large downstairs den are, arguably the two favorite rooms in the house. The convenient location is another plus. Downtown is only 3 miles away.
My husband and I and my sister-in-law and her husband so enjoyed our stay here. The accommodations were fabulous and our hosts were pleasant and attentive to our needs. We look forward to coming back soon!
Very convenient to all locations my family and I wanted to visit. The owners are very nice people and offered their assistance in our stay. Nice pool during the hot part of July. Most items were there for our use, such as dishes, cooking pans and the sort. There was no toaster though, but we managed. The seventh day free was a great marketing facter as well.
We had a great stay at this rental house. We came for the Alabama / Miss. State game and it is only a 20 minute drive to Starkville. The home felt was warm and welcoming. It felt like we were at our home away from home. The owners are very courtious and accomidating.
Thanks for a great memory!
We enjoyed our stay very much. This rental was very easy to find and very conveiently located to the base. It was very clean, peaceful and had everything you neeeded. I would definately recommend this rental to anyone. We stayed here for Hopefully, we can make it a week trip next summer and take advantage the the very well kept and beautiful pool. We also got to see a TON of deer, and being from Airzona, that was a big deal!
Property well maintained. Beautiful home with pool. Excellent location to town and air force base. Owners were very helpful, kind, and attentive to all our needs. They take great pride in this property and want your stay to be pleasant and enjoyable. I highly recommend staying at this property. We plan to return in November.
We enjoyed our stay very much. So great to have our very own pool to swim. This rental was very easy to find and close to everything. It was very clean, peaceful and had everything you neeeded. I would definately recommend this rental to anyone. Hopefully, we can make it a week trip next summer.
Holden Family,

Research Institution:
Abstract75832-Magnesium aluminate spinel is a promising structural and radio frequency (RF) window material for nuclear reactors, due to its remarkable neutron and ion radiation resistance at high temperatures. However, little, if any, effort has been expended in optimizing the strength, creep, toughness, and thermal shock properties of spinel structural components for advanced nuclear applications. This project will develop and demonstrate hybrid spinel composite structures that combine the best features of monolithic ceramics and fiber-reinforced spinel ceramic matrix composites (CMCs). A systematic approach will be undertaken for the fabrication of individual monolithic spinel sheets, fiber-reinforced CMC spinel sheets, and hybrid spinel structures consisting of alternating layers of the monolithic and CMC spinel sheets. In Phase I, hybrid spinel composites will be fabricated by hot pressing alternating sheets of momolithic spinel and fiber-reinforced spinel matrix CMCs. Physical and optical measurements, comprehensive mechanical property and thermal shock tests, and microstructural and crack pattern analyses will be used to examine the differences between the three structures: individual spinel monolithic, CMC, and the hybrid. Radiation testing and subsequent property measurements will be conducted in Phase II to validate the overall performance potential and benefits of the hybrid spinel concept. Commercial Applications and Other Benefits as described by the awardee: In addition to applications in future nuclear power systems, the hybrid composite spinel should find use in military and civilian vehicles, aircraft armor, and such industrial applications as boiler blower tubes, furnace windows, and oxidation-resistant turbine and rocket engine components.

Fix using ScreenTest (iOS)
Although there used to be several notable software applications available in the App Store for addressing dead or stuck pixels, that is no longer the case. ScreenTest, a free app available through the Cydia once you've jailbroken your iOS device, is one of the few alternatives currently on the market that has the potential to resolve the issue without costing you a dime. It excites pixels in the similar manner to UDPixel and LCD Repair, but does so on a mobile platform sans a Windows or web-based application. The process is a little more complicated than the previous methods, but you could always try watching the eight-hour Stuck Pixel Fix video on your device if jailbreaking seems out of the question.
1. Jailbreak your device: Because ScreenTest is a Cydia-exclusive, jailbreaking your device is a must before downloading and running the software. Check out our guide on how to jailbreak your iPhone, iPad or iPod Touch using Evasi0n if you haven't done so already.
2. Download and launch ScreenTest: Once jailbroken, run Cydia and download the free ScreenTest app from the store. When finished, open the program and agree to the various use and privacy conditions before continuing to the app's main menu.
3. Locate the questionable pixel: Tap the orange Maintenance button at the top of the main menu to cycle through a series of primary colors (red, green and blue) to locate the questionable pixel(s). Make a mental note of its location before returning to the main menu.
4. Run the repair software: Use the slider beneath the green Repair button to designate the duration of the color-changing cycle. Afterward, tap Repair button and allow the cycle to continue for the specified period of time. Make sure you're phone is plugged in to avoid any unwanted interruptions.
5. Check the results: When finished, tap the Maintenance button from the main menu same cycle you used to locate the dead or stuck pixel in step 3. Check to see if the questionable pixel has returned to normal, and if it hasn't, seek an alternative method.
What did you think of our guide on how to fix a dead or stuck pixel? Have a better solution for getting rid of those pesky, painful pixels? Let us know in the comments below.

Publishers Weekly - Publisher's WeeklyPeel (the Eerie Indiana series) debuts a futuristic, thrill-a-minute serial, 2099, that will attract computer buffs as well as science-fiction enthusiasts. This first installment introduces four key players: Tristan, a 14-year-old boy growing up during the height of the digital age; Devon, his desensitized clone; policewoman Taki Shimoda; and Genia, a crafty 16-year-old crook who resides in the Underworld. The "doomsday" nightmare begins when Devon, born and raised without human interaction, unleashes a computer virus that spurs a series of mechanical failures and mass deaths. Tristan (unaware that he has a clone) accidentally logs on to Devon's account, discovers the virus and temporarily stops it in its tracks. In doing so, he exposes his identity to Devon and places himself in grave danger. Enter Shimoda, who is determined to discover the root of the recent chaos, and Genia, who holds a vital computer chip that could either save or destroy the world. With action whirling at a dizzying rate around all four figures, readers may be left too breathless to analyze their motives, morals and connections to one another, which is just as well since these issues are, for the most part, swept under the rug. Characters are less thoroughly developed than their cyber-game of cat and mouse, which leads to a cliff-hanger ending just as civilization is about to fall. Ages 8-13. (Sept.) Copyright 1999 Cahners Business Information.
Doomsday (Fear the Year 2099 Series #1)by John Peel
Packed with suspense for the next millennium, this new series combines science fiction, humor and attitude. Tristan Connor lives in a completely computerized America. His clone, a genius named Devon, has programmed a computer virus that is about to blow the entire system apart.

Doomsday (Fear the Year 2099 Series #1) based on 0 ratings. 16 reviews.
This Book Is Awesome. There Is Really No Other Way To Explain It. I am Currently reading the whole series and it gets more interesting as it goes along. If i had More Than 2 thumbs I would put them all up to this book.
I have just finished this book today, and it really opened my eyes up to the future. I have to say that this is the best book I have ever read, it's got action, sci-fi, cloning, and spaceships. To all those who love sci-fi I highly recommand that you read this book, it actually got me into reading books. I didn't really care to read books before this, I plan to get the rest of this series, and to think this was just sitting in my desk sense 1999!
I finished reading Doomsday, and now I'm about to go out and get Betrayal. I looved this book. I thought that this book was wery interesting and it was very innovative. I can't wait to read all of the books in the seres!!
this story was a different story. It was one of the only stories i found that had a computer and action in the saem story. well i would have to say that this book was pretty good. There are hackers that try to hack the net, which is the head honcho of the world, and this person name Tristan, the main character, triies to find his identity. He opens a virus name doomsday.exe and he ends up stopping it from spreaing he thinks. It spreads and if you read you'll find out whether anything is destroyed, which some things are, or nothing is destroyed.
Okay, I recently turned 18 and i found this book through my girlfriend's little brother's bookfair, I think he is in 3rd grade. This book was very surprising, it was a real page turner. I finished this book, and saw there was another, now i need to get them all to see how the series will end. To all the big sci-fi fans out there, this is a great read. Hell, if any of you out there are just trying to find something to get you're kids to read, this series just might be it!
I read this book for a teen book discussion group I was hosting. It is filled with suspense, mystery, intrique, technical information, and even explores the possiblities surrounding DNA and cloning. But . . . there was one issue that kept thwarting my enjoyment. Here is a 13/14 y/o boy with a girlfriend whom he 'can't bare to live without'. I feel that the description of his feelings about his girlfriend are too adult for younger teen readers. The relationship, however, plays a very minor role in the development of the plot of this first book of the Doomsday series. I give this book 3 stars because of its possible psychological impact and hope the relationship does not mature throughout the series. On a more positive note: this is an interesting and captivating series involving science technology and biology.
I have read alot of books in my life. This one stood out to me. I give it five stars because I know for one reason that most young readers out there have to agree that we love a good book. This one is full credit because it first of all is in the future, and second is that the adventure is the whole series. Thats why I give it five stars
this book might be one of the best books i have read.it is thrilling and hooked me in the first chapter.after reading this book i couldn't help but read the whole set and they were also outstanding.i am looking forward to reading more books by Peel in the future.
Doomsday, the first book in the 2099 series got me hooked on. It's filled with suspense and action. I love the series and now I have started reading other books by John Peel because this one was so good. I can't wait for the next book to come out.
this book is totally awesome!!!! it pulled me in and once i started reading i didn't wanna stop because i couldn't wait to see what happened next!! right now i am on the fourth one in 1 week and they are soooo awesome!! i recommend them to anyone who likes an action packed 'keep you on the edge of your chair' kind of book!!!
I really liked it..probably one of my favorite book series. Goal on books now READ ALL OF EM YESSS!!!!!!!(IF U LIKE COMPUTERS INTERNET AND SCI-FIC THIS IS THE BOOK FOR U!)
read it it is cool i just fineshed it i am 12 years old and i love john peel books and i love reading.
I LOVED this book! It is the start of the 2099 series. It was creative and held my intrest along with the intrest of my mother and my grand mother. He really left a major cliffhanger in the end and wanted you to pick up the next one and read it. Execlent!
I am 19 yrs old and i think that Doomsday is a terrific book not only for children but for adults as well. It is a book that you just can't stop reading. I read it from front to back in one day, it keeps you in suspense you dont know whats going to happen next.
It was an excellent book. All the charcters, the way everything blended together at the end. I couldn't put it down.

I would tell anyone about to enter into a custody battle or if it's civil. Do not use this attorney. She is the definition of unprofessional. Showed up late inappropriately dressed and over an hour late to court. Some might say it was on purpose. She is the kind of lawyer who gives lawyers a bad name. She should be used as a last resort.
Posted: 6/13/2012
Ms. Barrett handled my divorce and did a great job. I have recommended her to friends having to go through divorce. She is professional and will not get bullied or pushed around. Her knowledge was able to get me out of (and keep me out of the same) scary situation. I highly recommend Holly.

text: Weather with Cliff Mass Mass: Expect A Sunny, Hot Weekend To Add To The 'Best Summer On Record' By Bellamy Pailthorp • Sep 5, 2014 Jeff Lilley This summer, we've already beat the record for the hottest July and August ever in the Seattle area. And this weekend, we can expect to build on that trend with clear skies and warming temperatures pushing toward what will likely be the hottest full summer season on record, says KPLU weather expert Cliff Mass. "We've been having the best summer on record here in Washington state, and it's not going away," Mass said. Mass: Cooler Weekend Ahead, But Don't Give Up On Summer Just Yet By Ed Ronco • Aug 29, 2014 Tim Durkan It won't be long now. Fall is just around the corner, says KPLU weather expert Cliff Mass, and that means the holiday weekend won't be all sun. "We'll see a different weekend than we've been used to in the past," he said. "Temperatures are going to drop way back. No more 80s." Mass: This Summer, One Of Hottest On Record, Is What Global Warming Feels Like By Bellamy Pailthorp • Aug 22, 2014 Elaine Thompson / AP Photo Keep the sunscreen and swim trunks handy. The clouds are melting away and the forecast predicts another hotter-than-normal weekend with temperatures above the mid-70s that are typical for this time of year. KPLU weather expert Cliff Mass says we are experiencing one of the hottest summers on record and could soon chart the hottest one in Northwest history. Mass: Summer In Western Wash. Went From Dry To Normal In Just One Week By Bellamy Pailthorp • Aug 15, 2014 Aaron Brethorst A week of rain has turned what was a dry summer into a normal one, says KPLU weather expert Cliff Mass. But don't let the clouds and drizzle get you down. Mass says the forecast will progressively warmer and sunnier over the weekend. This Weekend's High Temps, Sunny Skies Pushing Toward Record-Breaking Summer By Bellamy Pailthorp • Aug 8, 2014 Tim Durkan Go ahead and gloat. We've got one of those hot, sunny August western Washington weekends ahead that make it worth living here despite the long, dark winters. Low clouds will melt away, says KPLU weather expert Cliff Mass, as temperatures steadily rise over the weekend, hitting 90 maybe even as early as Sunday and certainly by Monday. "A warming period is going to happen," said Mass. "And that's because a trough that brought us cooler temperatures this week is moving off and a pretty high-amplitude ridge is building in its place." Why The Northwest Is A Potential 'Climate Refuge' From Effects Of Global Warming By Bellamy Pailthorp • Aug 1, 2014 Courtesy Cliff Mass The Pacific Northwest stands out as just about the only part of the country that will be largely spared from the ill effects associated with global warming, according to KPLU weather expert Cliff Mass, who mapped out all the calamities expected to result from climate change over the next century. Plenty Of Sun For Seafair, But Lightning Threat Spells Increasing Wildfire Danger By Bellamy Pailthorp • Aug 1, 2014 Elaine Thompson / AP Photo There will be plenty of sunshine for Seafair weekend, says KPLU weather expert Cliff Mass, but dry conditions and a chance of lightning could mean trouble for firefighters. Summer Is Back! Dry Weather And Warm, Sunny Skies In the Forecast By Bellamy Pailthorp • Jul 25, 2014 The last week of July is historically the driest week of the year. And despite record-breaking rain last week, the forecast for the days ahead fits the bill for this time of year, says KPLU weather expert Cliff Mass. "We're going to have sun, warmth and virtually no precipitation," Mass said of the week ahead. On Tap: Cooler, Cloudier Weekend With Chance Of Showers By Bellamy Pailthorp • Jul 18, 2014 Tim Durkan If you love sunshine, Friday's the day to get out and enjoy it. The cooling trend we've been experiencing will continue this weekend and even bring some rain with it, says KPLU weather expert Cliff Mass. Hot, Hot Weather Almost Everywhere This Weekend, Bad News For Wildfires By Ed Ronco • Jul 11, 2014 Tim Durkan Make sure you've refilled the ice trays. KPLU weather expert Cliff Mass says it's going to get hot in the days ahead. A Lovely Fourth Of July Weekend On Tap With Chance Of Clouds Saturday By Bellamy Pailthorp • Jul 4, 2014 Doug Mahugh Sunny skies on the Fourth of July are not something to take for granted in Seattle. But revelers can count their blessings this year, as the clouds are expected to burn off and give way to a decent day for picnics and fireworks displays, says KPLU weather expert Cliff Mass. "Much better than some other Fourth of Julys," Mass said. A Dose Of June Gloom This Weekend, But Sunnier Outlook For The Fourth Of July By Bellamy Pailthorp • Jun 27, 2014 Tim Durkan Keep your rain gear handy if you're headed outside this weekend. KPLU weather expert Cliff Mass says we're starting to pay for the drier-than-usual June we've had this year. But Mass says sunny days are around the corner; things will improve by the Fourth of July weekend. Good News, Nude Cyclists: Summer Weather Arriving Just In Time for Solstice By Bellamy Pailthorp • Jun 20, 2014 Tim Durkan The nude cyclists at Seattle's Fremont parade can look forward to comfortable summer temperatures on Saturday afternoon. And it might even be a bit too hot for runners at the Rock 'n' Roll Marathon, says KPLU weather expert Cliff Mass. A weak front has passed through, says Mass, and the clouds and sprinkles are expected to subside in time for the summer solstice Saturday. Mass: Go East For A Dry, Sunny Father's Day By Bellamy Pailthorp • Jun 13, 2014 Tim Durkan Friday will bear the worst of the weekend weather, says KPLU weather expert Cliff Mass, but don't expect sunshine on Father's Day. The rain returned on Friday with a "fairly good drenching" — "the first substantial rain" in nearly two weeks — and the clouds are expected to stick around for most of the weekend, Mass said. Mass: Sun-Filled Weekend Will Offer Short Reprieve From Infamous June Gloom By Bellamy Pailthorp • Jun 6, 2014 Tim Durkan It appears the infamous June Gloom will spare us — at least for now. "Normally this month, we have June Gloom: cloudy skies, temperatures in the 60s. But this year, it's been unusually nice, [with] temperatures above normal and extraordinary amounts of sun," Mass said. Weekend Curse Has Lifted: Sunny Skies And Summer-like Temps Ahead By Bellamy Pailthorp • May 30, 2014 Erin Hennessey It's time to get out the sunscreen and summer clothes.

Cliff Mass: It's A Holiday Crapshoot, But Consider Moving Your BBQ To Saturday By Gabriel Spitzer • May 23, 2014 Jean-Pierre Chamberland Well, it's complicated. The forecast for our long holiday weekend starts wet, then dries out, then gets downright motley as we move into prime barbecue territory. Cliff Mass: Gloom Looms As Sunshine Takes The Weekend Off By Gabriel Spitzer • May 16, 2014 Aaron Brethorst The weekend curse is back, according to KPLU weather expert Cliff Mass. After a week of unseasonably warm and dry weather, reaching up into the 80s more than once, temperatures are set to drop about 10 degrees on Friday, and step down another 10 or so over the weekend. Weekend Forecast: Still Some Rain Ahead, But Mother's Day Will Be Lovely By Bellamy Pailthorp • May 9, 2014 Denise Walker photo "First things first," said KPLU weather expert Cliff Mass. "For Mother's Day, it looks good." Mass predicts sunny skies and temperatures of at least 70 "and maybe even into the low 70s" for Sunday. But before then, there's some rain to get through. Heat Wave Is Over, Another Rainy Weekend In Store By Bellamy Pailthorp • May 2, 2014 AP Photo It seems the curse of the wet weekend is upon us again. This week's unseasonably hot transition from April to May is giving way to much cooler temps and heavy rain on Saturday and Sunday, says KPLU weather expert Cliff Mass. It comes on the heels of a gloriously sunny and hot work week. More April Showers This Weekend, But Saturday Will Bring Sunbreaks By Bellamy Pailthorp • Apr 25, 2014 C4Chaos / Flickr Don't put your parkas away just yet. It's classic April weather this weekend with lots of showers but plenty of sunbreaks, too, according to KPLU weather expert Cliff Mass. Saturday, in particular, is going to be nice, says Mass, who teaches atmospheric sciences at the University of Washington.

Warren / AP Photo Listen Listening... / 5:04 If you're planning any outdoor fun this weekend, Sunday's your best bet, says KPLU weather expert Cliff Mass.

Mass, who teaches atmospheric sciences at the University of Washington, says there will be a break from that today, but not for too long. Weekend Curse Broken: Saturday The Start Of 'Extraordinarily Nice Period,' Says Mass By Bellamy Pailthorp • Apr 11, 2014 Tim Durkan Get out your shades and sunscreen: this weekend promises to be mild and very sunny, says KPLU weather expert Cliff Mass.

I would like to selectively compile part of an (extremely bloated and large) framework only as the elements are used.
I've had a few ideas on how I can do this, but failed to implement either properly;
Use a define macro with the same name as a class or method which toggles a variable which causes that part of the framework to be included by the preprocessor. I had an idea for an implementation of this but got stuck.
Find a way to have all my function defined as templates so that the compiler doesn't generate them until they are required. I'm unsure however how I can make this work in a multi-file project.
Is there a good way to do this without using a third-party compiler or add-on/tool?

You have many different options. The best option depends upon the particular property, your personal financials, and other factors. I have closed on foreclosure's with an FHA loan. The buyer agreed to paint or hire someone to paint the bare wood around 2 back windows prior to closing. He did so for the equity he was getting and loved the home. I help Buyer's buy foreclosures and I help seller's as soon as they go into default and as late as when their redemption period ends. Realty One has established relationships with local attorneys who represent the foreclosing banks.We also have a full time researcher at the court house who can get all the research on the home prior to your making an offer. This can save you time & headache if there are unforseen title problems or just give you peace of mind & knowledge to make the best $ offer. Realty One Corp. takes the stress away so that there are no surprises.
Feel free to call me anytime 316-644-9101 or We will discuss all the possibilities and explain all your options, regardless of whether that involves us and our company at all! I am not far from you. We are located in Derby. http://www.realtyonkansas.com
PS~I have a buyer looking to purchase 125k in Mulvane. Is your home on MLS, I'll make sure it gets on the list if it has what they are looking for.
That will allow you to borrow the money to fix up the house.

Common Types of Hernias - Hiatal Hernia
A hiatal hernia (say "hi-AY-tul HER-nee-uh") is different from other types of hernias, because it involves the stomach instead of the intestine. It occurs when part of your stomach bulges up through your diaphragm and into your chest. The diaphragm is a sheet of muscle that separates your belly from your chest. You can't feel a hiatal hernia or see a bulge.
Most people with a hiatal hernia have no symptoms. But one symptom you may have is heartburn. If you often have symptoms, or if they are very bad, you may also have gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD). A hiatal hernia can lead to GERD. It's common to have both problems at the same time.

Salt Lake (11-4-9) moved one point ahead of Seattle (13-7-2) with its third straight victory.
After a scoreless first half, Salt Lake scored twice in a four-minute span at the start of the second. Plata, the shortest player in MLS (standing shorter than 5'2"), headed in a goal for a second consecutive game in the 53rd minute. Then Real Salt Lake got an own goal when Seattle's Ozzie Alonso was battling with Luke Mulholland inside the box.
Chad Barrett scored for Seattle in the 72nd minute after a wild sequence. Clint Dempsey's close-range attempt was blocked and Andy Rose's rebound header went off the post. Barrett finally put it past goalkeeper Nick Rimando, spoiling his bid for a third straight shutout.
The Sounders have another quick turnaround next week. They play San Jose on Wednesday at CenturyLink Field. Start time is scheduled for 7pm.

Two-dimensional (2-D) (d,k) codes have been proposed for multichannel recording systems. These codes increase storage density by employing a multichannel timing recovery mechanism. In addition to the (d,k) constraint, some recording systems require a charge constraint to meet the channel requirements. In this study, capacities of 2-D charge constrained modulation codes are derived and computed from the binary and runlength graphs of the codes. The power spectral densities of codes are computed from their runlength graphs. Finally, a method to construct 2-D charge constrained modulation codes is provided

Confessions of a Cookaholic
Love Cooking. Love Eating. Hate Doing the Dishes.

Pasta e Fagioli
So, its been nearly forever since I posted a new recipe on this thing. To be honest, I've been thinking more about the blog recently... missing the time I used to dedicate to my kitchen, missing the motivation to try new recipes, wishing I could get back into it. This, combined with the fact that I was (sort of) holed up in my apartment all weekend due to snow storm Jonas (25 inches in NYC!) AND that some of my dearest friends from grad school were visiting (who were major tasting partners during my prime blogging days), made me decide to snap a few photos of my kitchen creations this weekend and write a post or two.
I made this soup under the tutelage of my lovely friend Erin. Her whole family is Italian and she is one of my best experts on all foods within this cuisine. It reminded me how much I have missed cooking with her. The soup was wonderful. Warm and rich and perfect for a cold and snowy day. It was also incredibly easy and fast to make. I highly recommend it.
4 ounces pancetta, diced
1 large onion, chopped
3 stalks of celery, chopped
1 bay leaf
2 cloves garlic
1/4 cup white wine
1 (28oz) can crushed tomatoes
6-7 cups chicken broth
2 (14oz) cans cannellini beans
8oz ditalini pasta (or other small tube pasta)
grated parmesan
fresh parsley
In a large soup pot cook the pancetta over medium heat until it is lightly browned and has rendered much of the fat. Remove the pieces of pancetta, save for later. Add the chopped onion, celery, bay leaf and some salt to the pot with the pancetta fat (add olive oil if needed) and cook until softened and just lightly browned. Add the garlic and cook for another minute or two. Add some white wine to deglaze the pot. Add the crush tomatoes, 1 can of beans, and a few cups of the chicken broth and bring to a boil. Using a blender/stick blender puree some of the soup-- this helps to thicken it up. Return to pot, add the remaining chicken broth, some crushed red pepper flakes and salt and pepper (to taste) and the other can of beans and boil for about 20-30 minutes until the soup tastes really great.
Meanwhile, boil some water with salt and cook the pasta until al dente. When it is ready, add the pasta to the rest of the soup, give it a stir, let it cook another minute or two and taste for salt and pepper. Serve in bowls topped with pancetta, parsley, and parmesan cheese. And it goes really well with a piece (or two) of quick parmesan toast (baguette cut in half length-wise, add a bit of olive oil/salt/pepper/garlic powder/grated parmesan and bake in 350 degree oven for about 10-15 minutes, or until lightly browned).

Vanilla & Cinnamon Sugar Donuts
Just last week I was telling a friend that I was done blogging. I explained to her that I hadn't felt inspired recently and didn't feel like taking pictures of food anymore. And then, 36 hours later, I made these. Silly me. I guess all it took was one bite of these cinnamon-sugar-vanilla-butter-donuts to get me back in the game.
1 cup all-purpose flour
1 cup cake flour
1 1/2 cups sugar
2 teaspoons baking powder
1 teaspoon cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
1 large egg, beaten
1 1/14 cup buttermilk
2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
6 tablespoons butter, melted
1/2 cup sugar
3/4 teaspoon cinnamon
seeds of 1 vanilla bean
Whisk together the dry ingredients in a large bowl. In a smaller bowl, mix together the egg, buttermilk, melted butter, and vanilla and add to the dry ingredients. Fold together and do not over-mix.
Pour into donut pan and fill each mold approximately 3/4 full. Bake at 350 degrees for ~10-15 minutes, or until lightly browned and a toothpick comes out clean. Remove from oven, let cool for 5 minutes, then remove donuts from mold and let cool.
Once cool enough to handle, prepare the topping by blending together the sugar, cinnamon, and vanilla bean seeds. Dip each donut in the melted butter (on all sides) and then coat with the cinnamon vanilla sugar. Let the topping set, then serve and enjoy!

Raspberry Coconut Oatmeal Bars
I haven't really been blogging much in the past 5 months.
Or at all.
This is, in part, due to the fact that I have been lacking in inspiration. The rest is due the recent influx of busy and exciting new things happening in both my personal and professional life, including applying to and matching at a predoctoral internship, finishing graduate school, and prepping for my move to NYC in 6 weeks!
I've been so busy that I rarely spend Sundays in my kitchen like I used to. But, today I had just that kind of day. I've missed these Sundays and have decided to make them a priority in the future. I made these raspberry coconut oatmeal bars to bring to my very last meeting on campus tomorrow, and thought I'd snap a photo and post it. The best thing about these bars is that they are sweet enough to be dessert, but have a distinct oatmeal/jam flavor, so they can also pass for a breakfast-on-the-go. I plan on eating them for both breakfast and dessert tomorrow. I hope you enjoy them as much as I already have! Recipe from http://amandeleine.com/.
1 1/4 cup flour
3/4 cup packed brown sugar
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 1/2 sticks unsalted butter, cold, cut into pieces
1 1/2 cups old fashioned oats
1 1/2 cup sweetened shredded coconut, divided in half
12 oz. seedless raspberry jam/jelly
Preheat the oven to 375 degrees. Take half of the coconut and spread in an even layer on a baking sheet. Toast in the oven, stirring every 2 minutes, until lightly browned. Remove from oven and set aside.
Using a food processor, mix together the flour, brown sugar, and salt. Add in the butter pieces and pulse until the mixture forms a dough. Pour into a large bowl and mix in the oats and toasted coconut with your hands. Remove 3/4 cup of the dough and set aside. Press the rest into the bottom of a parchment-lined and greased 9x13 pan. Next, spread the raspberry jam in an even layer on top. Crumble the remaining dough on top of the jam then sprinkle the rest of the coconut (untoasted) on top.
Bake for 20-25 minutes, until bars are golden brown. Remove from oven, let cool completely, then cut into squares. Serve and enjoy!

Apple Cider Caramels
Peppermint Bark), I made these apple cider caramels. Wowza, these have some serious flavor. They taste like a bite-sized caramel apple with tiny bits of sea salt that you notice as you chew on them. Goodness, they are good. And as far as candy making goes, these were really simple and are jam-packed full of flavor. Make them! Recipe adapted from Smitten Kitchen.
4 cups apple cider (not juice)
1 cup granulated sugar
1/2 cup light brown sugar, packed
1 stick butter, cut into pieces
1/3 cup heavy cream
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1 teaspoon sea salt
1 candy thermometer
Pour the apple cider into a 3 quart saucepan and place on the stove over high heat. Bring to a boil, stirring occasionally, and let reduce until the liquid measures about 1/2-1/3 cup (this will likely take 30-45 minutes).
Meanwhile, measure out the sugars, butter, and cream and set aside. In a small bowl stir together the salt and cinnamon and set aside. Prepare an 8x8 inch baking pan by lining two strips of parchment paper on the bottom, leaving extra hanging off the top for easy removal once the caramel hardens. Set aside.
Once the apple cider has reduced, remove from heat and add the sugars, butter, and cream and stir to combine. Put back on the burner on medium-high heat and bring to a boil until the mixture reaches a temperature of 252 degrees F (about 5 minutes). Promptly remove from heat, stir in the cinnamon/salt mixture and pour into the parchment paper-lined pan. Let cool/harden on the counter (~2 hours) or in the fridge (faster).
Once hardened, remove the caramel by pulling up on the sides of the parchment paper and place on a cutting board. Using a well oiled sharp knife, cut into 1-inch squares and wrap in parchment/wax paper, twisting the sides to keep the caramel sealed. These will keep fresh for approximately 2 weeks on the counter. You can store them in the fridge, but I found them to be too hard when cold and just perfect when room temperature.

Hot Cocoa Mix
4 cups granulated sugar
4 cups granulated sugar
3 tablespoons vanilla extract
1 pound semi-sweet chocolate, chopped
1 pound milk chocolate, chopped
2 cups cocoa powder
In a food processor pulse together the sugar and vanilla until combined and smooth. Pour into the bottom of a very large bowl. Add half the chocolate to the food processor and process until completely ground (do not pulse too long, or else the oils will be released and it will start to clump together). Once all the chocolate is pulsed/ground, pour it into the bowl with the sugar. Finally add the cocoa powder and whisk to combine all ingredients. You may need to break up any small clumps of cocoa or ground chocolate as you whisk.
Pour into jars and close tightly. Attach a note with directions on how to make each cup of cocoa. Directions are as follows: Warm 1 cup (8 oz.) of milk in a microwave or on the stove. Add 3-4 tablespoons of cocoa mix and stir together to combine. Serve and enjoy!
Will last approximately 10 months.

Vanilla Bean Buttermilk Pie
1 9-inch raw pie crust (store bought or homemade)
1 cup sugar
4 large egg yolks
1 vanilla bean, seeded
1/4 cup cornstarch
1/8 teaspoon kosher salt
1 1/2 cup buttermilk
1/2 cup heavy cream
3 tablespoons melted butter
Preheat oven to 425 degrees. Pre-bake the pie crust for 10 minutes with parchment paper lining the crust and pie weights or beans on top of the parchment paper. Remove crust from oven and reduce oven temperature to 350 degrees.
In a large bowl whisk together the sugar, egg yolks, vanilla bean seeds, cornstarch, and salt. The mixture will be very thick. Slowly whisk in the buttermilk and cream until well incorporated. Slowly stream in the melted butter and whisk well. Pour into the bottom of the (slightly) pre-baked crust and bake at 350 degrees for 15 minutes. Then turn the oven temperature down to 325 and bake another 30 minutes, until pie is just set in the middle but still jiggly. Remove from oven, let cool to room temperature. Serve slightly chilled.

Anneke Wills reads this exciting classic novelisation of a Second Doctor TV adventure.
In the far future a group of humans is living an idyllic existence on a distant planet. Their colony is run like a gigantic holiday camp, and nothing seems to trouble their carefree existence.
When one of them claims that the colony is being invaded by hideous monsters, no-one takes him seriously. But the Doctor's suspicions are immediately aroused.
What is the terrible menace that lurks at the heart of this apparent paradise? Why are the colonists unaware of the danger that lies before their very eyes? And what is the Macra Terror?
Anneke Wills, who played the Doctor's companion Polly in the BBC TV series, reads Ian Stuart Black's complete and unabridged novelisation, first published by Target Books in 1987. Duration: 3 hours 5 mins
There's always death on the rock when the Beast's about.'
Fang Rock has always had a bad reputation. Since 1955 the lighthouse has been out of commission, shut down because of fire that gutted the entire tower. But now, finally updated and fully renovated, the island and lighthouse is once again about to be brought back into service.
Students have gathered on Fang Rock to celebrate the opening of the 'most haunted lighthouse of the British Isles', but they get more than they bargained for when the ghosts of long-dead men return, accompanied by a falling star.
Colonel Lethbridge-Stewart is brought in to investigate what he believes to be signs of alien involvement. But it is not only Lethbridge-Stewart who has an interest in Fang Rock. Anne Travers is called to her family solicitor's, who have in their possession a letter from Archibald Goff, the paranormal investigator who once visited Fang Rock back in the 1820s, and along with it a piece of alien technology.
What connects a shooting star, ghosts of men killed in 1902 and the beast that roamed Fang Rock in 1823? Lethbridge-Stewart and Anne Travers are about to discover the answer first hand...
Written by Stephen James Walker
