Oates to perform in Highlands
Published: Sunday, November 13, 2005 at 4:30 a.m.
Last Modified: Sunday, November 13, 2005 at 12:00 a.m.
HIGHLANDS -- Frannie Oates will perform at 8 p.m. Friday at the Instant Theatre Company's Studio on Main, 310 Oak Square, Highlands.
Oates is a storyteller, performance artist and spinner of songs. Her instruments are her alto-soprano range voice, Native American style flutes and guitar.
Oates will perform an eclectic blend of stories and songs from the rich multi-cultural heritage of the Southern Appalachian Mountains which will also include her errant odyssey of a drop-out debutante who shed the petticoat and pearls confines of early social obligations to the later freedom of befriending, and literally running with, a timber wolf, and her sojourns into Indian Country with the nearby Cherokee and beyond.
Tickets are $15 for adults and $7 for students 17 and under. For more information, call (828) 342-9197 or visit www.Instant-Theatre.org on the Web.

It happened at 4:07 near Lower Jarvis and The Esplanade, and EMS say the man was shot in the lower leg and taken to hospital. He's expected to live. The man has only been identified as 'around 18 years old.' Reports from the scene indicate one person was seen running from the scene, but that's yet to be confirmed by police.

I'm using wp_get_archives to display the last 6 months ('limit' => 6). I've been tasked to update this code to allow for a jquery 'reveal' of the rest of the months beneath.
Initially I figured I'd have 2x wp_get_archives 1 as above, and then one showing all months with an offset of 6 months.
I have since realised this isn't possible, at least not from the outset/what I can see.
Is there anyway to do this? Preferably without plugins although I'm open to that as a last resort.

The influence of decision power on distributive fairness
We study the influence of decision power on fairness in the division of gains from productive activity. In an experimental setting, two actors are involved in generating a gain, but only one contributes actively by completing a task. In three treatments, decision power to divide the gain is assigned to (1) the inactive, (2) both the inactive and the active, (3) the active participant. Results show that changes in decision power not only affect allocations in accordance with previous research, but that they also alter fairness perceptions. In particular, full decision power significantly enhances self-serving interpretations of fairness. We discuss implications for organizational design.

Rave On
I've really got to get over my habit of praising with faint damnation. Here I'm spending the entire afternoon bouncing on my bed to a new album, then I go and type up some complaints about the disc's under-recorded drum sound and append some arcane gender-studies quibbles just to cover my ass.
Well, prepare to behold my uncovered ass. I want to gush, to spew, to be the consumerist devil hovering over your left shoulder in the Fetus whispering for you to buy that White Stripes album, that Sean Na Na album, that Shakira album. (Definitely that Shakira album.) For once, I want to name the future of rock 'n' roll as I see it, or at least act as a witness at the christening.
Okay, here goes. End Transmission are the most exciting live rock band in the Twin Cities today. There, I said it. Felt good, too. Sure, my superego is already frantically summoning exceptions, noting that I haven't seen every band here and--Bah! I have taken my pledge of hype, and I won't back down. Instead, I'll concentrate on my memory of this Big V's show I stumbled into in March.
A typical evening. The familiar faces of musicians and roommates of musicians interacting between sets. A sprinkling of pouty gals arching their backs so severely they seemed in danger of spraining a boob. Some guy in a Motörhead shirt disapproving quietly of each band that took the stage. And End Transmission, whom I'd last seen back in 1999 and pledged to check back on a few months later.
Well, a lot can happen in 36 months. Hell, a lot can happen in a few minutes, as demonstrated by the extended instrumental vamp the band began with. This two-note guitar/bass punch stretched out across a flat four-four high-hat pulse, growing more tense and gripping as it lasted beyond all accepted bounds of introductory instrumental vamping--probably two minutes in real time, a comparative infinity in the here and now. Then, individual guitars and voices started jabbing forward, swerving hectically between the gaps in the increasingly complex rhythmic infrastructure erected by Bob Drake's drums and Jacy McIntosh's bass. McIntosh and guitarists Casey Nelson and Tom Kerkes lurched forward, Kerkes gripping the mic as if it were the only thing keeping him from being flung back into the drums. His mates staggered in just that direction.
Though necessarily lacking this visible intensity, End Transmission's new CD The Holiday of No Broadcast (Audio Liberation Society), offers up eight exercises in synchronized intricacy, each song detonating a series of explosions within explosions, with anthemic choruses making way for even more rousing codas. Knotty, unyielding, and probably hard to play, these riff-puzzles are constructed as if the band had something at stake and maybe even something to prove. Why else would their lyrics drop the word revolution so much? And though sentiments like "Justice must be the fate worse than death/So globalize your own ass" may be too knotty and too unyielding and probably too hard to chant for optimum proletariat mobilization, they do sound plenty progressive.
That's progressive in the Winona LaDuke sense, not in the King Crimson sense. Though never a three-chords-and-out primitive, I still wield prog as an insult, regardless of how many post-post-post-hardcorelings bow their guitars with slide rules. But there's an economy of attack and core of aggression that powers End Transmission past comparisons with austere math-rock sibs. True, when I listen hard, I can hear in "A Restoration Song" not just the sprung rhythms of Gang of Four but traces of the needlessly complex lockstep of glumsters like Tool. But I promised not to equivocate, right? So why don't we just skip to the part of this piece where I interview the band already.
Bob Drake lives in a typical suburban home in Brooklyn Center. At night, groundhogs puncture his lawn, headlights are infrequent, and bug chirps are the only buffer between you and the silence of the void.
When I arrive, Drake, Nelson, Kerkes, and McIntosh are sitting on the back porch drinking Rolling Rocks. Nelson, Kerkes, and Drake are founding members. McIntosh, who has been touring in punk bands since he was 14, is a ringer of sorts, an old friend enlisted when the band found themselves bassless last spring. He handles promotional duties for the group, and he chatters off details, such as the fact that the band records every rehearsal. "There's always a tape rolling," he says.
In the studio, songwriting is a collective effort. Still, editing duties fall to Kerkes. "I'll get a delivery-driving job and listen to the tapes while I work. If there's something really good that someone else forgets, I'll remind them."
Kerkes is also keeper of the tapes. Eighty tapes from the past year, plus 20 reels of 8-track, have been deposited in a Members Only gym bag he totes about. "Tom's been known to dump the tapes out on anyone's floor," Nelson says. "That's a very familiar and heartwarming sound to me now."
"They're not labeled," Kerkes says, explaining that he distinguishes them by small marks on the cassette shells. "They have little scratches that I recognize."
"It's very Conan," Drake quips of Kerkes's barbarian system of pictograms. He adds that the band has begun using hand signals to change parts for the song, increasingly relying on nonverbal communication.
Some of us, however, get to ramble on as much as we want. So, have I told you about End Transmission, then? Have I mentioned that they're a really, really good band? Really. I'm not just saying that.

Top 10 must-see Minnesota music videos this week (Mark Mallman, Spooky Black, Actual Wolf, Hippo Campus, and more)
Tickle Torture - "You're Gonna Be My Baby"
Tickle Torture gets things heated up straight away with his sultry (and slightly NSFW) video for his pulsating new jam, "You're Gonna Be My Baby." The track is from Tickle Torture's highly anticipated forthcoming EP, Spectrophilia, due out on September 9 on Blood of the Young Records. The concept for the clip came from Mr. Tickle himself, Elliott Kozel, while it was directed by Ryan Kron Thompson, and produced/edited by Dan Huiting. There's an erotic quality to all of Tickle Torture's work, but he pushes those traits to the hilt in the red-hot track and video. Catch the carnal spectacle that is the Tickle Torture live show at the Entry on September 6, as Elliott celebrates the release of Spectrophilia with his cohorts Pony Bwoy and C. Kostra.
Black Diet - "Do A Little Wrong (Live at Hair Police)"
Black Diet have been all over local stages for months on end, and now the irrepressible sextet decided to get down and do their soulful thing at the unlikeliest of music venues -- the Uptown salon, Hair Police. But somehow the combination works brilliantly, as the group brings "Do A Little Wrong" to the stylish locale. The clip is shot in the vein of La Blogothèque's 'Take Away Show,' which delivered live performances from unique, distinctive locations. Director and editor David Tullis (Black Diet's drummer) does a wonderful job continuing that creative trend with this clip, as the band makes themselves right at home in the salon, while their patrons get a free show with their haircut. You can catch Black Diet when they open for the legendary Lee Fields & the Expressions at the Cedar on September 18.
Munqs - "At Night"
Back in June, the synth-drenched, electro-rock duo Munqs released their gloriously textured new album, How Dark. Now the tranquil, haunting centerpiece of the album, "At Night," has an equally compelling -- but shockingly violent -- video, directed by the relentlessly busy Adam J Dunn. The clip captures the moody vibe of the song perfectly, playing up the "At Night" theme, just with a vicious twist, as a sexy, drug-laden night around the campfire takes a decidedly dark, horrific turn. The song is enthralling and intoxicating, with expert production and arrangements by Corey Lawson, and with the help of this striking video, you won't forget the track or its accompanying visuals anytime soon.
The Ericksons - "My Love"
Folk-rock sister duo the Ericksons return with a glorious new album, Bring Me Home, on September 30. The first single and video lifted from the record is the utterly captivating, "My Love," which has a surprising electro-pop element to it that only compliments the golden harmonies of Bethany Valentini and Jenny Kapernick. The Ericksons decamped to Justin Vernon's April Base studio to record the new album, along with Beau Sorenson and co-producer Sean Carey. The talented songwriters assembled a top notch band around them (featuring Field Report's Ben Lester and Shane Leonard along with Minneapolis virtuoso Mike Lewis) to help bring these exquisite songs to life, and the results are stunning and quite moving. You can catch the Ericksons performing at MPR Day at the Minnesota State Fair tomorrow (August 29), as well as at the Varsity Theater with Jessica Lea Mayfield on September 16, and their big Record Release Show for Bring Me Home at the Cedar on October 3 along with BBGUN.
Allan Kingdom - "Wavey (Feat. Spooky Black)"
Allan Kingdom delivered dynamic live sets at 10 Thousand Sounds and last weekend's Totally Gross National Party, boldly asserting that he is one of the young MCs to watch in the current hip-hop scene. This video for "Wavey" -- one of the best tracks on his brilliant new album, Future Memoirs -- should go even further to solidify him towards the top of the modern rap game. Kingdom is joined on this song by his musical cohort, Spooky Black, who is blowing up in his own right. And the two prove to be quite potent and unstoppable when partnered together on this smooth, R&B drenched number. Kingdom produced the track along with Psymun, and the simple but striking video only compliments the laid back vibe of the number itself. Catch Allan Kingdom when he plays the P.O.S.-curated, The Fucking Best Show Ever, in downtown Minneapolis on Saturday, September 13.
Bob Mould - NPR Tiny Desk Concert
Bob Mould scaled things down just a bit for his Tiny Desk Concert at NPR. The legendary Hüsker Dü/Sugar frontman came in solo for his set, bringing along his trusty '87 Blue Fender Strat. Mould still rocked during this stellar performance, with the intimate setting not causing him to tone things down too much. He tore through four spirited songs during his set, including three standouts from his new album, Beauty & Ruin, "The War," "I Don't Know You Anymore," and "Hey Mr. Grey." But he didn't leave the NPR studios without reminding everyone about his illustrious back catalog, as he ended the brief performance by delivering a potent solo take on the Hüsker's Flip Your Wig classic, "Makes No Sense At All." Mould is in fine voice and spirits throughout this special performance, and the lively songs reflect a passion for music that thankfully doesn't show any signs of fading out anytime soon. You can catch Bob playing with his full band at the State Fair Grandstand as part of the stacked Minnesota Music on A Stick bill, also featuring Brother Ali, Doomtree, Cloud Cult, Har Mar Superstar, and the Cactus Blossoms.
Lizzo - "Bus Passes and Happy Meals (Live at Reading Festival)"
Lizzo recently headed across the pond to stir up the crowd at England's venerable Reading Festival. This performance of "Bus Passes and Happy Meals" finds the vivacious MC flanked by her cohort Sophia Eris, while performing a more intimate set at the Tree House specifically for BBC3. Lizzo certainly has caught the attention of the UK music world, as her Reading set was included as part of the Telegraph's list of "acts you shouldn't miss" at this year's festival, alongside bands like Arctic Monkeys, Disclosure, Metronomy, Paramore, and Jungle. Nice bit of company right there. This scaled back but no less vibrant performance won over the BBC DJs, who reacted enthusiastically and prominently shared the clip as one of the top things they saw all festival weekend. Lizzo is set to play the Yum Yum Fest in Madison alongside Four Fists, before she hits the road with Clean Bandit. Your next chance to catch her in Minneapolis is her sure-to-be smoking show at First Avenue with her bestie Caroline Smith on September 27.
The Lioness - "Dreamer"
Minneapolis MC The Lioness returns with another smooth hit, this time for the wistful, soul-infused new number, "Dreamer." The stylish, luxury-filled video was shot and edited by 13twentythree Photography, while the track was produced by Emazin. But the unquestionable star of the show is the Lioness herself, who deftly switches from the catchy, R&B chorus, to the rapid-fire rap flow that fervently pushes the song forward. The video is packed with costly extravagances that await everyone who wishes for the good life, but the Lioness isn't necessarily focused on those material trappings, she has something far more real in mind for her particular dreams. And, based on the boundless talent she has displayed through her music so far, she is going to achieve whatever goals she finds herself dreaming of.
Phantom Tails - "Dozer Journal (Live at Radio K)"
On August 19, Phantom Tails finally released their long-awaited new album, Phantom Tails Rides Battalion. And, to celebrate/promote the release, the moody electro-rock quartet dropped by the Radio K studios to perform a scintillating live session, which included this storming version of one of the new album's standouts, "Dozer Journal." The saturnine group is going to keep the momentum going from their new release, playing a free show at the Kitty Cat Klub on September 11, which also features Astronomique and Pallex.
Vision the Kid & Tru - "Devil"
Local hip-hop/production duo Vision the Kid & Tru have an energetic new album they are ready to release on the Twin Cities on September 2 called, Somewhere In The Dark City, and the first video/single from that collection is for the potent track, "Devil." Colin Kopp is the director/producer of the ominous black and white video, which adds to the dynamic nature of the track perfectly. Vision the Kid's aggressive flow pushes the song forward, while Tru's smooth production gives you plenty of indelible beats to nod your head to. The talented duo have a packed lineup planned for their record release show at the Entry on September 4, as they will be joined by Medium Zach, Homeless, Big Cats, Freez, and Poison IV, with DJ Snuggles hosting the festivities.

Petit Jean State Park is a 3,471-acre (1,405 ha) state park in central Arkansas managed by the Arkansas Department of Parks and Tourism.
Petit Jean State Park is located atop Petit Jean Mountain on the Arkansas River in the area between the Ozark and Ouachita mountain ranges, in Morrilton, Conway County, Arkansas.
Legend and naming[edit]
According to legend Petit Jean was actually a young 18th century French woman. When she discovered that her fiance planned to explore the Louisiana Territory, she cut her hair, disguised herself as a boy and managed to find a position as a cabin boy. She survived the voyage and the expedition began their exploration. Once they had reached the area of the mountain, the young woman became ill, on her deathbed she revealed herself to her fiance, and was buried on the mountain, not under her own name, but under the name she had been known by on the ship "Little John".
Locals pronounce the name "PET-ih jeen" or "petty jeen".
The Park[edit]
Buildings of log and stone construction built by the Civilian Conservation Corps during the 1930s are scattered throughout the park giving it a rustic feel. A 24-room historic lodge called Mather Lodge sits on the edge of a bluff of a deep forested canyon. In addition to the lodge there are 32 cabins and 127 campsites available for park visitors.
The canyon and bluffs were created by Cedar Creek, which cascades into the canyon in an impressive 95-foot (29 m) waterfall. Above the falls, Cedar Creek has been dammed to create the 100-acre (40 ha) Lake Bailey which is used for pedal-boating and fishing.
Petit Jean has a visitor center and gift shop in the center of the park and a boathouse at Lake Bailey that provides boat rentals, fishing supplies, and a snack bar. Tennis and basketball courts, a swimming pool, and picnic areas are available for the use of park guests.
The Museum of Automobiles is less than a mile from the main camping areas.
The park also has several geological and archaeological features such as Bear Cave, Rock House Cave, the Grotto, Turtle Rocks, Carpet Rocks, and Natural Bridge. The scenic overlook at Petit Jean's grave provides a view of the Arkansas River Valley.
Petit Jean State Park provides a variety of events throughout the year, ranging from mountain man rendezvous, wildflower weekend, and camping weekends to the swap meet and auto show. Mather Lodge also has special programs for guests during the Christmas season, New Year's Eve, and other holidays. A free e-mail newsletter subscription containing notices of events is available via the park's website.

Popular Teas from Whittard of ChelseaSee All 217 Teas
Recent Tasting Notes
My first Oolong! Also, my first gong fu experience. I really enjoyed the experience. The tea has a very floral taste, very light. Extremely flavourful. I am just venturing into the world of Oolongs, but let's say that if they are all at least as good, I'm pretty sure I'm in for a great ride :)
Flavors: Floral
A sample from MissB. :) Thank you!
I decided to cold steep this one based on some Facebook conversations about icing and cold steeping teas. I generally stick to fruit teas, and am trying to branch out.
So this. Overnight in the fridge.
Sadly, it was like drinking spinach water with a touch of seaweed. For some reason most green teas do this to me. I keep hoping they'll be delicious cold, but then they aren't.
I appreciate being able to try this, but I think that for me it would have been better hot.
On my last cup of this after reveiving a few bags in a sampler. It's a pleasant enough all day, every day cup of tea but it's nothing special. Has mild malt and smoke tones with little to no richness or strength which is what I look for in a teabag. It's not dusty which is a plus point so I can tell it isn't cheap but it's just the lack of strength knocking it down points for me.
I don't have too much experience in instant teas, but this one is really tasty. I'ts a nice combo and you can taste all of the flavours. Maybe I'll try some other instants of Whittard. Their range seems tempting.
Flavors: Apricot, Honey, Vanilla
Wow, this is lovely and hearty! I have only recently started appreciating heavier, richer, non-flavored teas. This one is almost nutty and kind of creamy. The first few sips were really smooth, but it is starting to get bitter as it cools. Adding a bit of cream takes the edge off the bite. I'm not totally taken by this tea, but I may keep it out of the ATTB and try it again soon.
This is the last of the samples given to me by Whittard of Chelsea and it is wonderful!
The hibiscus is not overwhelming in this blend, thank goodness, it is just pure, blueberry deliciousness. I coldbrewed it overnight and split it with the wife and we both love it.
I don't know what else to say, but this is a delicious brew. Oooh, I should try this in some pancakes…
I only steeped this for 30 seconds, I could not believe how dark gold the tea got in such a short amount of time – and holy crapnuggets, the flavour! I don't like floral teas – I especially don't like rose teas. Most of the time it's like drinking shampoo. BUT NOT THIS ONE. Which was my point. Really strong flavour, but really nice.
Part of the incredibly generous sample pack sent to me by Whittard of Chelsea!
I had to try this one coldbrewed. I just had to. And I wanted to see if it was as good as Goji Pop. I took a sip of this before I added my sweetener and holy hibiscus, Batman! Tart as sin and not half as fun. But the sugar calmed it down a bit, thank goodness.
I first discovered the flavor of acai through Red Leaf Tea's Brazilian Acai Matcha, which I adored. To me, acai tastes like the bastard son of blueberry and raspberry. I really like it. It's rounded out and juicy like blueberry, but it has an edge, like raspberry.
This coldbrew captures that perfectly. And with the goji, it is out of this world. It's incredibly refreshing on this hungover day, and I'd even pick it over Goji Pop! The only reason I might keep Goji Pop stocked instead of this is because DavidsTea is much more accessible for me. Still, I've got enough of both to give me a yummy summer.
I didn't like that the package wasn't resealable in any way, in fact, you had to cut it open. Luckily I have a few empty tins kicking about. Also, again, so much hibiscus. Though it is making me start to wonder, is 45% hibiscus normal for an herbal, or is it a high percentage? I almost wish the percentage of each ingredient wasn't listed, because without that, I wouldn't have been so focused on the amount of hibiscus when I first tried it.
So my wife makes me a cup of this and my first response is "Wow that's really green!"
Maybe because it's a green and not black as I was, for some reason, expecting.
This was delicious! But if there was bergamot in it I could barely taste it. The mango was the dominant taste, but it didn't completely drown the green. The green had a faintly toasted flavour to it, not too strong. Worked well together. Very calming cup for something caffeinated.
Drinking this one cold-brewed right now. My wife put it in the fridge to steep overnight, and I'm really enjoying it! I'm not a huge iced tea drinker but this one is good. It's not too tart, not too floral, not too grassy, just sweet and blueberry-y. I think hot it would come off as too sweet, but it's a great choice iced.
Flavors: Berries, Jam
Whittard of Chelsea sent this along with the rest of the samples offered to me! Yay!
That sentence is awkward, but I have fuzzy brain at the moment and I don't care. I'm not an earl fan, but my wife is and she was very, very excited to try this. So was I, after smelling the dry leaf. Juicy, juicy mango with a citrus undertone.
My wife tried it first, and she let me know the bergamot wasn't very strong, which gave me the courage to go after a cup tonight. It's the lemony freshness of bergamot, but the mango smooths out the rough edges. This is lovely. I need to try it side-by-side with the Marquis De Gris from RiverTea and see how they compare, but I think I would prefer this one. I remember the bergamot being stronger in the other blend.
Don't be frightened by the bergamot, this is a wonderful introduction to the flavor if you've never tried it.
Lately, despite the fact that it is freezing outside, all I want are cold drinks. Tons and tons of ice cold drinks. Which is all well and good, but requires some planning on my part. Either I need to cold brew or stick soda in the fridge or harass my wife into refilling the brita when she uses it. In a 24-hour period this weekend, I went through two sprite "double gulps" from 7-11…which I just discovered were 64 ounces each. Yikes. I meant, they were 3/4 ice, but I ate the ice too, so I don't really get much leeway there.
Anyway, what I'm trying to say is I am thirsty. This is a cold brew I made for today and it was heavenly. Sweet and floral with a berry burst that I adore. So, so good. It went perfectly with my lunch of a reuben, homemade chex mix, and clementines.
I used 2 bags for 25 ounces of water.
Another of the generous samples Whittard of Chelsea shared with me!
My favorite cider in the world is elderflower cider and as soon as I spotted this tea on their website, it flew onto my wishlist. It flew. For reals, people. Everything elderflower that I've ever had, I loved (most of it courtesy of IKEA), so I was so excited to try it. I love that it is individually packaged. I'm not a huge teabag fan, but when the bags come from a reputable company like Whittard, I'm willing to try them, I trust it to be more than just tea dust.
Loose leaf, this tea would knock my socks off. In a bag, it's still pretty damn good. As far as bagged tea goes, this is wonderful. A little heavy on the hibiscus (seriously, why does berry tea always have to equal copious amounts of hibsicus) but I've long since learned how to deal with the dreaded hibby.
Still, this is a tea I plan to keep stocked in my purse and I can't wait to coldbrew it. It smells really floral, but it's only vaguely floral in flavor with a bright, tart berry. I definitely get the feeling of "blackberry" as opposed to a generic berry.
Points off for the 45% hibiscus and for the teabag, but this is still a winner!
This is another generous sample given to me by Whittard of Chelsea. You guys rock!
As is my habit with drinking white teas, I gave this a low temp and short steep. The scent made me think of berries, but there are no berries or berry flavorings. Hmm. Oh well!
Even with a 30 second steep, this came out dark-ish for a white tea. It was enjoyable, rosey without being overly floral. Thank goodness, because florals are not my thing. Too often teas with rose in them taste like perfume or shampoo, but that is not the case here. I highly recommend this if you are looking for a good rose tea, because it is definitely that. I can't wait to try this cold brewed.
That all said, rose teas are not my bag. It won't be hard to drink this one down, because it is refreshing, but I won't feel the need to restock.
I rarely crave things the way I crave this tea. Usually my craving are more vague, something fruity or something minty. But when I crave genmaicha, I want genmaicha and nothing else will do until I've had a cuppa. It's rare, this craving, but it is strong.
And this blend always hits the spot. Roasty and toasty and perfect. Really helps my often-angry tummy too.
This is another of the seven generous samples Whittard of Chelsea sent me!
Genmaicha is one of those teas I always pass over when I'm buying tea, because I'm not a fan of greens. But then I go out for teppanyaki or sushi, get a cup of roasty, toasty goodness, and wonder why I don't have any in my cupboard.
So when Whittard of Chelsea offered to send me some free samples, I thought this would be a good one to try, to see if I like it outside of my favorite sushi places!
And oh, I do. I added about half of the amount of sugar I usually add (1 lump instead of 2) and it tastes like a less-sugary cup of Sugar Crisp cereal! Which I love, love, love. I don't think I've ever loved a green tea this much. It smells a touch seaweedy dry, but that doesn't translate over to the liquor at all. It's just roasty toasty goodness.
I don't drink a lot of Genmaicha, but I like this more than I've ever liked anything I got in a sushi place. Of course, I don't get to control the steeping parameters there like I do at home, so that might be part of it. Still, I am very glad to have this in my cupboard and will do everything I can to keep it well stocked!
Oh wow. I wasn't in the mood for tea this morning (yes, I know, such a thing is possible) until my wife waved the bag under my nose. Then I had to have a cup – and I was not disappointed.
Dry, it's rhubarb and cream – a little bit tart, a little bit sweet, a bit of white chocolate scent. Dusty black tea somewhere in there.
Brewed, it was exactly what it said on the tin. A tart treat that mellowed out with the creaminess. The black base was rich but not overpowering, worked really well with the cream. The rhubarb was the strongest at the beginning of the cup, by the time I got to the bottom it had cooled a little and it was much more black tea. A bit of an Irish breakfast in taste.
PS I have a list of teas that I've drunk but haven't logged so if it looks like I'm drinking a ton of tea, I'm just catching up.
Flavors: Cream
This is just as tasty cold as it is hot, if not more so. Creamy rhubarb goodness. This is a tea I am absolutely in love with. To cold brew, I put about three teaspoons in my DavidsTea Mason Jar that holds 25 oz, and I filled it with water and let it chill overnight. It's not bitter at all and I love it. It's great. If you have any of this and like cold tea, do yourself a favor and cold brew it.
So a few weeks ago, Whittard of Chelsea contacted me to ask if I would be interested in trying and reviewing some of their teas! I was extremely honored and excited, so of course I said yes! I made a wishlist and sent it to them, but I also requested that they send me ones that are their favorites and I absolutely must try. This is one of seven extremely generous samples they sent to me. Based on my interactions here on Steepster alone, I would order from them in a heartbeat.
Onto the tea! I opened the package and took a deep sniff and immediately fell in love. I ran over and made my wife smell it too and ended up having to make two cups of tea instead of just one, ha! It just smells so deliciously fruity and juicy it made my mouth water.
And boy, did it live up to that smell. The rhubarb was delicious and the black tea base was present, but not overwhelming. It got astringent towards the end of the cup, but I drink my tea lukewarm, so that's likely my fault. Still, my wife and I kept exclaiming "It's so good!" as we drank down our cups. I got a hint of creaminess towards the end of the sip, but all three flavors mixed together wonderfully.
My grandmother-in-law makes a coconut rhubarb cream pie that my wife absolutely loves, so maybe I'll break open a can of coconut milk to see if I can recreate that in tea form. I already have some coldbrewing in the fridge, I am dying to see how this does cold!
My only complaints would be towards the end of the cup, the black tea became astringent and the rhubarb began to taste artificial, but that may all have been user error.
It's a good tea but not one that I would buy for myself. It does indeed have an imperial taste to it. Reminds me of something they might serve at high noon with a biscuit. In some ways this reminds me of a Ceylon. Maybe that's why I'm not such a fan. The added flavors make up for that though. It's a good blend, even if it is a little weird.

Introduction. As yet, a summary of research evidence concerning the efficacy of psychological treatment in male sexual dysfunction is lacking.
Aim. Our systematic review gives an overview of the efficacy of psychosocial interventions in all male sexual dysfunctions.
Main Outcome Measures. Main outcome measures included, for example, psychometrically validated scales, interviews, and clinical assessment by an independent rater. The efficacy of psychosocial interventions was measured, for example, by the frequency of and satisfaction with sexual activity and sexual functioning.
Methods. The systematic literature search included electronic database search, handsearch, contact with experts, and an ancestry approach. Studies were included if the man was given a formal diagnosis of a sexual dysfunction (International Statistical Classification of Diseases and Related Health Problems [ICD10/-9]; Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders [DSM-IV/-III-R]) and when the intervention was psychosocial or psychotherapeutic. The control group included either another treatment or a waiting-list control group. The report of relevant outcomes was necessary for inclusion as well as the design of the study (randomized controlled trials [RCTs] and controlled clinical trials [CCTs]). The assessment of methodological quality comprised aspects of randomization, blinding, incomplete outcome data, selective reporting, and allegiance.
Results. We identified 19 RCTs and one CCT that investigated the efficacy in male sexual dysfunction and two further studies that examined male and female sexual dysfunction together. Twelve out of 20 trials in men used either a concept derived from Masters and Johnson or a cognitive-behavioral treatment program. Overall, psychosocial interventions improved sexual functioning. While one study found that psychotherapy is superior to sildenafil, another study found the opposite. In men with premature ejaculation, behavioral techniques proved to be effective. A shortcoming was the rather low methodological quality of included studies.
Conclusions. Most of the compared interventions proved to be similarly effective. Possibly, there are underlying constructs throughout all therapies that have an effect on the outcome.

I am trying to configure my wireless network on my laptop running Ubuntu 10.10 and am having a bit of difficulty. I am a complete Linux newb, but want to learn it, hence the reason I'm trying to set this up. Here's the vitals:
It is a Gateway 600 YG2 laptop. It was previously running Windows XP, but I installed Ubuntu 10.10 in place of it (not a dual boot, I removed XP altogether).
I have an old wireless card that I'm trying to resurrect. I haven't really used the card in a couple years, but it seems to still work, I just can't connect to my home's wireless network. The card is a Linksys WPC11 v2.5. When I plug it in, Ubuntu recognizes the network, but won't connect to it. My home network uses WPA encryption and the only connection type that Ubuntu's network manager is giving me is WEP and then it asks for a key -- I have no idea what that key should be.
So, basically, I'm asking, is there a way I can instead connect through WPA? I've tried creating a new connection in network manager, but that won't work, it keeps falling back to the WEP connection and asking me for a key. I have tried to install the XP driver using ndiswrapper but I don't know if that's working or not. Is there a way to tell if:
A) the card is working as it should B) the correct drivers are installed (again, I installed the XP one using ndiswrapper NET8180.INF, but I'm not sure what to do next)
Any help would be appreciated. Thank you.

What were your symptoms of Paget's disease of the nipple?
Comment from: 65-74 Female (Patient) Published: March 22
I noticed a tiny absolutely white spot on my nipple. In the next month there was some crusting over that spot. My gynecologist suspected Paget's but the surgeon he sent me to for a biopsy laughed at me and told me to go home and "try more creams." He believed that it was a fungus. For more than a year the lesion persisted and grew (but only incrementally -- it remained a small section of the nipple). There was rarely pain, more often intermittent itching. The gynecologist who replaced my doctor when he moved away would not even look at it -- there was already a report from a surgeon in my file saying that it was nothing. Seventeen months after I first noticed the change on my breast, I went to a new family doctor, a woman. She took one look and said that if it were on her breast she would get a biopsy immediately. I told her that was all I wanted -- just to know. She made an appointment that day. I had surgery three months later (Houston flooded and lost some medical labs) but eventually M. D. Anderson diagnosed the tissue. We did a deepish cone shaped lumpectomy and removed 11 lymph nodes from the armpit. The lymph nodes were clear. The follow-up was aggressive radiation -- because I had had the cancer for so long. There was no underlying breast cancer which I realize was amazing. I have been cancer free for nearly ten years now and am a very healthy 70 year old.

I have a gray scab like spot next to the areola. It also itches.
Comment from: PEGGY, 75 or over Female (Patient) Published: January 22
I had an irregular shaped rough spot on my nipple. My gyno misdiagnosed it as a fungal infection. My dermatologist suggested Paget's disease and sent me to a different gyno. He biopsied it and was surprised that it was Paget's disesase as it is rare and he had never seen a case before. I had a modified radical mastectomy in September 1985. The diagnosis was infiltrating ductal and intraductal carcinoma of the breast, Paget's disease of the nipple, and 22 axillary lymph nodes free of metastatic tumor. I had no further treatment. I am alive and well 27 years later.
Comment from: lcc, 35-44 Female (Patient) Published: February 01
I just had a very small dry spot in the breast and I put Vaseline I get it was very dry, but 1 month went by and still the same but little bit bigger and I call my doctor and send me to do a mammogram and sonogram and it was good, but I got sent to a specialist and I am going to have a biopsy, and see what it is.
Comment from: tomw, 75 or over Male (Patient) Published: March 22
Yellowish discharge from the nipple. Spotting of blood on bed sheet one night. A small (.5cm ) lump below the nipple.
Comment from: Letter Carrier, 35-44 Female (Patient) Published: March 03
I had no symptoms. All of a sudden one day I came home and undressed myself and my nipple was stuck to the inside of my bra. That's how I found out there was a problem. A clear liquid was then present on the surface of my nipple after my shower and the surface of the nipple was kind of raw and red. One day later it was gone. I thought the Neosporin was good for it and that's why it went away, but I was wrong.

Rangoon NoodleLab brings Myanmar cuisine to the Jefferson stop in Bushwick
The restaurant is a pop-up, open on Wednesdays, inside the wine bar Bodega Wine Bar with Burmese comfort food:
These noodles can take the form of stir-fries, soups, or cold summer salads, with some dishes toggling between those modalities. Individual recipes vary from week to week, so that one Wednesday if you order beef shan noodle —attributed to a state in eastern Myanmar bordering China— it may be a heap of slippery and pungently oily rice linguine shot with beef nuggets, shredded omelet, crunchy peanuts, and cilantro, tasting powerfully of fish sauce and secondarily of tomato. Another week, the sauce might be thicker and more tomatoey, with a heap of ground beef almost like an Italian ragu. Either way, the noodles are memorably tasty. [Read more...]

A mathematical formulation is presented of the simulated evolution algorithm, a novel optimization technique, followed by a thorough analysis of the associated Markov-chain model. A hierarchical approach is used to solve the placement problem for medium to large circuits which incorporates elements of both placement and circuit partitioning in a single algorithm. It is found that the new hierarchical method not only reduces the overall execution time but also significantly increases the quality of the final result. Its success can be attributed to the fact that it reduces the number of local minima that the optimization algorithm encounters. Therefore, the global structure of the placement can be optimized first, regardless of intermediate limitations imposed by local constraints. By gradually refining the granularity of the optimization method, a solution close to the global minimum can be achieved. A standard cell placement program is described based on the new approach whose preliminary results are comparable to the best simulated annealing algorithms

This is really easy tasty Christmas treat. The original calls for glace cherries, but I only had candied orange which worked just as well, just not as colourful!
Ingredients Nutrition
- 200 g dark chocolate, melted
- 60 g slivered almonds, roughly chopped
- 90 g chopped glace cherries, red, green and yellow
- Grease and line a tray with non-stick baking paper. Using a teaspoon, spoon a little melted chocolate onto baking paper (although it might be easier to pipe it) and spread out in the form of a wreath shape.
- Decorate with almonds and glace cherries.
- Repeat with remaining chocolate, almond and cherries to use all ingredients and refrigerate until firm.

Notre and votre, like mon/ma, ton/ta, son/sa and leur are singular forms of the possessive adjectives:
Nos and vos are plural, like mes, tes, ses, leurs.
Additionally, le(s) nôtre(s), and le(s) vôtre(s) are the corresponding pronouns. Like le(s) mien(s), le(s) tien(s), le(s) sien(s), le(s) leur(s).
