Arsène Wenger is delighted that highly rated teenager Jon Miquel Toral Harper is poised to join Arsenal in the summer.
The 16-year-old midfielder, whose mother is English, has been with the Barcelona academy but is set to move to Arsenal to pursue his career.
At his press conference on Friday Wenger stressed that such moves were common place throughout European football.
He said. "You forget that this boy is English. He has an English passport, his mother is English, and hopefully he will join us in the summer.
"We have done what is legal. I love Barcelona, I love Catalonia. I have nothing against them. But when a player who is half-English and half-Spanish wants to join us, why should we turn him down if it's all legal? If we have done something illegal, I will say 'sorry, my boy, we cannot do it'. But plenty of players leave us under exactly the same rule."Copyright 2017 The Arsenal Football Club plc.

Steering a PWC
Ignition Safety Switches
All PWC come equipped with an emergency ignition safety switch which is designed to shut the engine down if the operator is thrown from the proper operating position.
The ignition safety switch works by attaching a lanyard between the operator and the switch. If the lanyard is removed from the switch, then the engine will shut off. If your PWC does not come equipped with an ignition safety switch, you should have one installed. It is illegal to ride your PWC without attaching the lanyard properly between the switch and yourself.
If your PWC is not equipped with an ignition safety switch...
PWC without ignition safety switches must be designed to encircle the operator if he or she falls off. The engine will run at idle speed while the PWC slowly circles so that the operator can board as it circles. Be sure that the idle speed is always set correctly.

My First MAC- MAC Rushmetal Collection Pigment and LipstickThursday, August 23, 2007
Now, I have to say that I may now have been ruined forever! I too will now be looking forward to each MAC collection, and I'm thinking about which MAC pigments I need to try out! It is definitely possible to be a "Bobbi Girl" with a natural look and use (and love) MAC's products! Tonight I'll review my products from this summer's Rushmetal collection, coming soon a review on the 3D lip gloss.
Truthfully, I was at first a tad afraid of the pigment. It comes in what is actually a rather large jar, with nothing to prevent you from applying the entire thing at once to your face (or spilling it on your white carpet!) My pigment is a very pretty rose with gold shimmer, called Revved-Up. On the MAC site this is listed as an icy rose with frost, but I think that my description, and most especially my picture, are more accurate.
I LOVE this pigment! While it takes a little bit of practice to get used to using pigment, I think that this is pretty much the ultimate product in terms of versatility! I tend to use the powder that is inside of the lid, this helps limit what I pick up with my brush. I have found that when using pigment as a blush, it looks much more natural if I wipe the brush on the back of my hand before application. While I wouldn't wear this shade as an eyeshadow, I did try it out this way. The pigment was very easy to apply with an eyeshadow brush. The pigment is obviously very pigmented, so just a little goes a long way, it is easy to blend properly and long wearing. I've been looking at some of the pigments on-line to try out as eyeshadows, and I have to say that I'm excited to go to the MAC counter now!
I also tried out the Rushmetal Lipstick in Fastlane. Lipstick is what made MAC famous, and I can see why. This lipstick applies wonderfully, feels great on the lip, and is long wearing. While it didn't last me through a meal, it did last all morning without needing reapplication, a minor victory in my eyes! The shade I have is a very pretty dark mauve with a silver pearl finish, and it is incredibly flattering on me. Really, to the point of Holy Grail status!
I thought seriously about running out to my local MAC counter and buying backups of both these limited edition shades. However, I've opted to join the legions of MAC fans eagerly awaiting the next collection, Smoke Signals came out this week and I'm eager to see the shades in person!

Isn't MAC great??? You will love the 3D Lipglass in "Lightswitch", since you are a natural girl, it's a nice hint of pink with subtle shimmer.ReplyDelete
Eeek! Did the MAC pigments I sent you bring over to the other side?? I was *SO* hoping they would! LOLReplyDelete
welcome to the MAC world. Be carful though, the Limited Edition collections can become an addiction!!ReplyDelete
Vanessa- So glad you're here! Can you send me an e-mail, I have a question for you and you don't have a contact on your blog. :D I'll check out Lightswitch as well, I already have In 3D (reviewing it today actually), and I love that color! Such depth!ReplyDelete
Littlesunshine- OMG, you definitely contributed! I've been using the pigments you sent me the past couple of days, they are great pretty much everywhere- as highlighter, eyeshadow, with my blush.... You've corrupted me!
Heather- This is what I was afraid of, now I can't wait for the next collection! I'm already out of storage space, I need to buy some more... An addiction has been born!
LOL enjoy your new mac sadly it's the beginning of the end for you now! Once you get started on the road to MAC there is no looking back ;) Take advice from a MAC whore get out while you still can!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!ReplyDelete
Enjoy your goodies :)
MAC is addictive. But it is a fun addiction!ReplyDelete
i'm glad you've come to the dark side! mac is my absolute favorite. their pigments in ALL their makeup are so true, so long-lasting... i try and try other things but i love them best. now, that being said. i have had some wonderful natural looks done with mac makeup as well. just don't get too hooked on anything you buy limited, or you're setting yourself up for a lifetime of heartbreak! luckily, they usually have something lying around that can approximate. and sometimes certain limited things are made permanent. i'm just sayin'. :)ReplyDelete
OOHHH when you get addicted to MAC, you hit hard, find yourself at rock bottom and then try to sober up... be strong! just don't sell your soul on ebay trying to make money to support your habit...LOL!ReplyDelete
I love comments! Please ask away, provide info on how you liked something, etc. Note that spam, comments with random links (which I count as spam), anything not in english (again, spam) and comments that are completely unrelated to anything will all be deleted.

|Topic Review (Newest First)
not so much stuck in traffic it was a lane closed and big trucks were going in and out clearing the road, a truck had to drive evasively to miss all the people that had gotten out of their cars as the one lane that was open was quiet narrow.
a traffic contoller directed the people to get in back in their vehicles and people started abusing him...renta cop...blah, blah.
i thought the situation could have gotten dangerous quickly and if anyone got hurt it would of course been the someone else's fault other than the people who had ignored the signs and verbal directions and they would try get a damages claim no doubt.
mebbe i am just getting old and angry.
Lol no joke!!!!
I had to get a polygraph done two weeks ago and he was pretty funny when it came to some of the questions. He made it very clear that he didn't expect me to be perfect, it was okay if I had taken pens home from work, taken a cookie when I worked at Subway, etc. Those are all technically stealing, but they don't count them.... I wonder why.....
|Megan...great minds....
Who ever says they don't is lying. who hasn't driven over the speed limit? Cruised thru a stop sign on a lonely road? Jaywalked? there are so many "little" laws it would be impossible not to break them at some point.
I'm pretty sure it's not a law to get out of your vehicle when stuck in traffic.
I think anyone who says they have never broken ANY law is either a liar or a saint. How many people have gone even 1 mile over the speed limit? Law breaker. Who has turned right on a red when it says no turn on red? Law breaker. How many people have taken someone else's medication? Law breaker. I think there are probably certain things that we all follow to the letter, I do not turn right on red where it says not to, I know too many intersections where you can NOT see even if you think you can and can easily get into an accident if you do turn on red. I am sure the people behind me find it annoying that they have to wait until the light turns green to turn right.
I know there are certain things I find annoying when people feel the need to ignore or not take seriously.
do you break "little" laws
was caught in some roadworks and there was a delay on the lane. several huge signs said - "remain in vehicle..." sure enough various people started getting uot of their cars to have a stretch, chat, whatever and other people err remained in their vehicle as i did.
i seen the same thing on jets where you gotta stay seated until the little sign comes up and always a few people decide the will unfasten their seatbelts and get up when they feel like.
there a lot of "little" laws that some people just ignore - i figure they say stay in yr vehicle or seated on a jet for a reason.
how many of these little laws do you break and do you find it annoying when people break them??
just musing

Posted by James McQuivey on November 16, 2010
Time to get my hands a bit dirty. Last week I posted an eBook forecast with a brief explanation of why the book business may complete its digital revolution more quickly than other media businesses have. Turns out this assertion was more difficult to hear than I anticipated and I got some very insistent (and worth reading) comments. The discussion that ensued both on the blog and outside of it was very complex, this is not a simple matter. However, there are parts of it that are very simple that I have to clarify, even though it means rolling up my sleeves a bit. Allow me to draw into this discussion John Thompson of Cambridge University who gave a very worthwhile interview to the Brooklyn Rail this month to discuss his recently published analysis of the book industry, Merchants of Culture. I will refer to just one of his specific comments:
"There are many people who just love books and they love the ideas that are expressed in books; they love the stories that are told through books and all of it. They're very attached to it.... They cherish the book. And they believe that this is an artifact that they want in their lives. And some of the technological commentators in this industry just completely miss this point."

According to the New York Times (Why Science Majors Change Their Minds), the decline in the number of science majors in the United States has come about in part because the subject matter is too difficult. If this explanation is true, then we have not properly prepared these students in grades K-12. I also believe that the poor state of funding of American science is an important factor. My Columbia University colleague Stuart Firestein expressed this idea in his letter to the Times.

I am making this so whoever is putting in an aftermarket amp and subs to go along with their Double-Din Monsoon system, they can look here on how to install it.
This install was done on a 2002 GTI VR6. This install works with all Double-Din Monsoon sounds systems in a Jetta/Golf/GTI.
NOTE: This install will also work with the SINGLE-DIN MONSOON, SINGLE-DIN NON-MONSOON, AND DOUBLE-DIN NON-MONSOON sound systems; however the install will be just a tad different. If you would like install help on something other than the DOUBLE-DIN MONSOON system, feel free to e-mail me. I have the wiring schematics for all of those systems.
1) You are going to run the power wire from your battery to the rear of your car. To get through the firewall you are going to pull this little grommet out and feed the power wire through.
2) Since there are no RCA outputs on the back of the Double-Din Monsoon headunit you have to make your own. I purchased a line-out converter from Radio Shack. Once you buy that you will need to find the Monsoon amp in the back of your car. Once you find that you will notice that there are two wiring harnesses connected to it. Remove the GREY harness. There should be some black tape wrapped around it. Peel that away so that you can see all the wires. You will need to tap into these four wires in correspondence with the line out converter wires.
NOTE: To my knowledge, Radio Shack doesn't sell their line out converter's anymore. When you are purchasing your LOC, be sure to get one with only 4 wires connected to it.
Right Rear Positive = Brown
Right Rear Negative = Black (right under the brown wire)
Left Rear Positive = White
Left Rear Negative = Black (right under the white wire)
As of right now, the color code for the wires have only been varified for my 2002 GTI VR6. I am not sure if this is different on the 2003 models. If someone could check, I can edit this post to make sure everyone knows.
I used these wire taps from Radio Shack:
And here is what it looks like after all four wires are tapped into the line out converter:
3) You will need a remote turn on lead wire so that when you turn on your headunit, your aftermarket amp will turn on. Find the wiring harness that you would plug into your 6 CD-Changer or already have your 6 CD-Changer plugged into. Peel back the black wrapping around the harness. Find the GREY wire inside that harness. This is the wire you will tap into for your remote turn on wire for your aftermarket amp. Here is what it looks like when done:
OPTIONAL: It may be a good idea to use a relay instead of powering the additional amp turnon directly from the cd changer harness. One guy accidentally shorted the wire and blew the turon circuit in his HU which would be a bummer.
A relay is simple to do: Get a 30 amp automotive relay. Hook it up in the following manner:
Relay coil A :Gray changer wire
Relay Coil B: Ground (I took it right from the - terminal on my subwoofer amp.)
Relay Common: +12V (I took it right from the + terminal on my subwoofer amp.)
Relay N.O. Terminal: Amp turnon terminal.
The blue wire is the wire that I tapped into the grey wire. The blue wire runs to my aftermarket amp.
4) Finally, you will need to ground your aftermarket amp. I also have a capacitor connected to my system. So I grounded both at the same location. There is a little hook type thing in the back of your hatch/truck. Most likely it is to hook a net on. I just removed the hex screw from the hook and put the two ground wires on that screw and screwed it back in.
Your setup is done. Now, just connect the power wire to the battery. Remember, disconnect the ground from the battery first, then connect the power wire. Then replace the ground to the battery.
Turn your car on, turn your headunit on, pop in your CD of choice...and crank it up.
If you have any questions, please feel free to IM me.
SINGLE-DIN MONSOON and NON-MONSOON SCHEMATIC
DOUBLE-DIN MONSOON and NON-MONSOON SCHEMATICS
PLEASE NOTE - This HOW-TO is not meant to help you setup a system that can be put into "a SPL contest hitting 100 cycles or lower". (Kain420). It is meant to help people out that would like to keep their OEM headunit but have aftermarket subs.

Naturally some football days are far easier to write about than others. Saturday was one of those that proved thoroughly enjoyable from the early start to the late finish.
We often take an indication from the weather as we leave our abodes on matchday so during a period of particularly damp, dull and drab days the glorious sunshine that accompanied our group's early morning departure suggested a fine day could lay ahead.
And so it proved...
A top 'full English' in a cafe near West Ham station helped fix any hunger issues before we headed to our recommended pre-match hostelry to enjoy the matchday build-up. I use that description as the establishment I have used for the last 20 years or so has recently become the latest to succumb to the current big supermarket chain takeover that seems to be leading to the closure of so many long running and historical public houses in our country.
Far from being disappointed, we were made extremely welcome in our 'new' away day pub and consequently it was very much a major part of our highly enjoyable day. A big thanks to landlady Mary and her staff, we'll be back I'm sure :-)
Our East London neighbours have always made Upton Park a tough place to get a result down the years and Saturday was no different. The atmosphere both inside and out was exactly as you expect from a London derby, the three thousand or so Gooners present providing a large chunk of the noise.
When it comes to desire, sharpness and sheer footballing ability we could not have started the game any better. Half an hour of total dominance, however, lacked that all-important goal or two. As a consequence, the fact our hosts' opener was such a great strike didn't make it any easier to take.
As half-time approached I remember thinking the break might be just what we need to re-group and start again. What preceded it of course, was even better. Olivier's perfect run and finish was awesome in its simplicity if nothing else. The first fine jostle ensued and our scorer's name simply echoed into the evening sky to the tune of 'Hey Jude'.
Theo's entry into the proceedings could not have been better timed. Both sides had looked to try and take all three points but his pace added that extra dimension often required when a game is on a knife-edge.
With another hefty contribution from Olivier in the build-up Theo's finish was quite superb and produced the kind of pandemonium you would expect in the away end when taking the lead in a London derby. Get in!
Yet again Santi was quite superb, one of many fine performances on the day. His quite stunning goal and our third put the icing on the cake.
All in all it was one of 'those' football days for me. A great few hours containing every little thing that makes them so special.
It seems a shame that we have to wait two weeks now to do it all again and it comes in the shape of another away day, this time at Norwich.
Despite the wait it might be a good idea to enjoy the enforced 'break' - the trip to Carrow Road kicks off a period where we play seven games in three weeks!
Given the Canaries' colours we will very much be behind the red and white that day... after Saturday, however, for now I can't help but admit I do like us in yellow.

Before every Arsenal fixture, we'll bring you a Scouting Report on the Gunners' next opponents.
Former Arsenal midfielder Stewart Robson will give his pre-match view and you can get his post-match verdict in our Talking Tactics feature on Arsenal Player.
Arsène Wenger and his side face Blackburn Rovers at the Emirates on Saturday so, to find out more, we also asked local journalist Andy Cryer for his thoughts and analysis.
"Blackburn base their gameplan around a well-organised and disciplined defensive strategy. When Christopher Samba and Scott Dann are at the heart of the defence they can afford to defend deeply because both are excellent headers of the ball. Yet when they have been missing, the likes of Gael Givet and Grant Hanley have also shown a desire to defend with skill and tenacity. This defensive structure means that they rely heavily on counter-attacking football and set plays to score goals.
"As Arsenal will should be aware, both these aspects of their play caused Arsène Wenger`s men problems at Ewood Park. Junior Hoillett is key to their counter-attacks because he is a brilliant runner with the ball and will makes runs behind teams who play too high and too square."
"They normally play a 4-2-3-1 with one up front, two sitting midfielders and then three men looking to push forward with the striker.
"Yakubu has been the key man for them this season in that lone striker role but, of course, he will be serving the last of a three-match suspension. In this game, Anthony Modeste, who signed on loan from Bordeaux in the January window, will probably play in that position again. He made his full debut last night against Newcastle.
"Then you have Steven N'Zonzi in the holding role alongside Radosav Petrovic, they are the most likely pairing in the middle. Those two allow Junior Hoilett and David Dunn the opportunity to get forward and create.
"I think they will approach this game quite defensively. It tends to be the case for away matches now where they try and soak up pressure and hit teams on the break. They aren't too bad on the counter either because Hoilett, Dunn and Martin Olsson are all decent attacking threats.
"There have been games where they have played quite well - they are probably better away from home than they are at Ewood Park to be honest. At home they have had some shocking results and some shocking performances. Away they tend to be better because they don't have to take the initiative when teams come at them and so they just look to hit the opposition on the break.
"They have been playing a little bit better than the results have suggested but they haven't got too much of a killer touch and probably deserve to be where they are.
"Arsenal probably play straight into their hands. I expect them to have all of the ball, all of the pressure and Rovers will just defend, defend and then defend some more until they can catch them out on the counter.
"Players like Hoilett will be a threat for Arsenal. Unless they score early, Arsenal will just keep piling forward and it could work favourably for Blackburn. It could be just like what happened at Old Trafford and Anfield.
"I have to be a little bit hopeful from Rovers' point of view. If Arsenal get one early then it's game over for me but if Blackburn can keep them out in those early stages they could get a 1-1 draw or even sneak a win. That is me being very optimistic though."

I spent a month looking for this grill. Finally bumped into it during the closing down of Best Buy. I paid £52.00 for it from £64.00. I love it!
I bought a baby Foreman grill while at uni and was using it ever since 2002. Then this year I got bored of making only one bacon sandwich at a time when I moved in with my girlfriend. This new grill lets me comfortably cook 4 thick slices of bacon on one side while warming up 4 slices of bread on the grill on a lower heat setting. (I should also point out that when her mother came to stay I was able to use the baby Foreman grill as well, as it never ever ever let me down and still works today.) I'm not sure where they got those tiny bacon and sausages from that they show on the box! Realistically 4 bacons will get on the grill (from cold), and 4 slices of bread on the griddle.
I then started to expand my cooking on this new grill, from asparagus, fish, a full English; bacon, tomatos, mushrooms. My new favourite is a bacon and egg muffin. Thanks to the griddle its so easy to shape eggs so that they fit perfectly into a muffin. Even better than McD's!
This grill cooks food nicely and lets fat drip nicely, though it doesnt really fall onto the tray, it stays within the elevated grill bits. Its still a long way healthier than cooking in a pan in oil, really lets you taste the food instead of the oil/excess water. It also doesn't quite have the same weight and solid feel of the old baby Foreman, (the name smudged whilst cleaning it). It has been used frequently for the last 3 months and I am happy with it.
I've had this George Foreman griddle & grill for about a year, and go through phases of using it daily and then not bothering for a while. I think it depends whether you like fast food which just goes straight into the microwave or oven, or if you prefer to cook from scratch. This device makes it very easy to cook properly, which is good if you're trying to be healthy or lose weight. In this respect, you'll find you're frying a lot less food, and you can see the fat being drained into the little drainer pot they give you, which makes you feel better about what you're eating.
The grill is split into two sections, each having its own temperature control between 1 and 3. They both have red lights to indicate when they are on, which is useful because sometimes I've turned the wrong side on by mistake, or I've forgotten to turn a side off and the light has reminded me. I tend to cook most things on the number 2 setting, as it's midway so ensures the food is cooked without burning the outside.
The left hand side is the griddle which cooks meat, fish and sausages, and you can see the fat draining off the food. The other side is flat, and is for 'frying' vegetables, eggs and so on, but without having to use oil. We do our fried eggs this way as it's much healthier, although you do find if you don't use oil, it does make it harder to clean as it can stick to the surface.
The Foreman cooks a wide range of foods, and it comes with a leaflet which gives rough cooking times for different types of meat and vegetables. You will find you'll use this grill more often than most of your other kitchen 'gadgets' and it will reduce your oven use as it's so versatile. When my partner and I first moved into our house we didn't have a cooker for about 3 weeks (long story!) and we found we got by with the Foreman grill (and many takeaways of course!). We've cooked chicken, salmon, vegetables, eggs, sausages and bacon on this grill amongst other things, and it does reduce your cooking time a fair bit.
The only thing that puts me off using the Foreman sometimes is the cleaning aspect. It's not really difficult to clean, as long as you don't leave it too long so the food sticks on. I tend to just boil the kettle and pour it over the grill into the sink, then I gently use a scourer to get rid of any stubborn bits. There is a special scourer you can get which is supposed to be gentle on the surface, but I've not had a problem with scratching just using the normal scourers. I guess it's just a case of cleaning it each time whereas with the oven it only gets done once in a blue moon!
This device will be a welcome addition to your kitchen, and makes cooking from scratch easier, quicker and healthier. As long as you're willing to keep on top of cleaning it each time you use it, you shouldn't encounter any problems.
These were on offer at Tescos a few month ago, they were going for £50 the problem is that I had only gone in for some milk.
A few of my friends have the smaller George that just grills and it does a superb job in grilling chicken by retaining most of the flavour as opposed to doing it on a frying pan. This is supposed to be healthier for you too which is a great advantage. I bought this one because it also has a griddle, i can have meat going on the grill whilst cooking eggs and vegetables on the griddle.
The box had a picture of George Foreman on it which is enough to frighten anyone on the other hand the instructions were quite good and did contain quite a few suggested recipes. Style wise is looks OK, it may have been better if they used stainless steel for the body but then the price would have been higher. The grill/griddle use a non stick type coating which is supposed to make it easier to clean, but you have to really get in there and the cooking surfaces do not come apart so cleaning has to be done on the appliance itself.
Whats great is that you get temperature controls on both the griddle and the grill, these go from one to three, with three being the hottest. So you can be browning onions on the griddle slightly whilst having the grill on full whack for the meat. You do have to get used to cooking everything at an angle instead of flat, which takes a while to get used to but that is only because the oil needs to drain into the drip tray and this was probably the only way to do it. The advantage of the grill is that because it closes in on the meat, it cooks both sides evenly and any fat/oil will dribble out into the drip tray.
Overall, if they would spend more money on giving out better utensils with this grill or save money by not giving away that cheap plastic crap, i would have given it 5 stars. The grill / griddle itself cannot be faulted though. Once you've used one of these you don't know what you'd do without one. Every home should have one of these along with an oven. Yuo'd probably use the oven less overall.
This is the AMAZING! George Foreman Grill and Griddle! First of all, its big so you can cook lots of food! I thinks its '10 portions'. This is amazing if you like Full English Breakfasts like me. I absolutely love my food. This makes it all so easy and I can cook everything in one go. Also which makes this really appealing to me is that its heathly. Because it drains out all the fat... well maybe not all. It comes with a drip tray to catch that horrible fat and a spatula to help clean it out. This is a great addition to the kitchen.
Whats good about this grill and griddle is that makes cooking easier and a lot quicker. Also its healthier as Ive already explained. This is a great item because aswel as the grill, you can cook things on the griddle such as eggs and vegetables. I love everything about this item, its extremely helpful. Its not very heavy so you can store it away when your not using it and move it out about and stuff. The quality of the food that comes out is really tasty. It cooks really well.
Its a bit annoying to clean but I use the spatula to scrape off the fat, because you leave it to cool down before you clean it. I just use a cloth aswel to clean it as you cant exactly put it in the sink. There is a light on it that comes on when its ready to have food put on it. Ive not had it too long so the non stick is still good.
The price of this is also good, you can get this for around £50 which is well worth it.
I've been nearly buying a George Foreman for ages and originally wanted the smaller one but finally ended up winning this one on eBay and I haven't looked back since. The main cooking part of the grill is good size and is easily big enough for a family of 4 to cook a meal on and I often do a grill up on a Sunday which keeps the wife happy as she can see the amount of fat that's coming off everything dripping into the drip tray. The hot plate at the side is handy for cooking eggs tomatoes mushrooms etc on and also toasts the bread buns if you're doing burgers. We've even started to do pannies in the grill part and find that it works quite well and you don't end up with the burnt edges like on a standard oven grill. Both the hot plate and the grill have 3 heat settings so it's easy to control the temperate and cooks evenly, there is a light that indicates when its reach the desired level which then goes out although it doesn't give a temperature reading as such. A few moans that I would have about the product is the amount of space it takes up on the work top & we've found if we store it away in a cupboard we forget about it like with most kitchen gadgets but that could just be us. Its easy enough to clean and I haven't quite decided if it's best to clean it while it's still hot of leave to cool down. I have found that on ours some of the grease seems to run down one of the support legs which is slightly annoying as it misses the drip tray and goes on the work top which is extra cleaning but this could just be on our one. On a whole if you thinking of getting a George Foreman I'd recommend getting a big one like this if you have the room to keep it out on the work top all year round.
I've owned this grill now for 7 years. I originally purchased it from Makro for £30 although I have regularly seen this priced around £50. If you can get one for close to £30 then I highly recomend you do. I have used this extensively over the years and its very quick and easy.
I not sure why I enjoy cooking with it so much, I guess its like 'MAN COOKING' like a BAR B Q indoors!
Basically there are two parts to this machine there is the grill part where you cook your meat and the hot plate where you can do eegs, mushrooms, hashbrowns, peppers, chillis anything you can think of. Both the grill and the hot plat have independent heat settings so you can have the grill on high setting 3 doing your steaks and the hotplate with your onions ticking over on a low heat (setting 1).
This is actaully a very easy way to cook and cooking times are greatly reduced. Unlike a normal gril this cooks the meat on both sides at the same time which not only reduces the cooking time, but also cooks it evenly.
The machine comes with plastic utensils for manovering and flipping your food and also a drip try. Which brings me onto the next big benefit of cooking using a George Foreman Grill, the grill part is angled so the fat from the meat runs away and caught in the drip try meaning that your food is healthier as its not covered in grease oil and fat.
The machine is quite builking and does take up quite a bit of work top space. There are smaller versions available without the hot plate, but to me this is one of the best bits and I'm happy to sacrific a bit of space for such flexible cooking.
As with any products of this type they are a bit of a pain to clean, I recomend doing this whlie it is luke warm and girve it a wipe. The girll and the hot plate are both none stick so this does make things a little easier.
In our house this machine gets the most use on a sunday morning for doing a fry up. so retire your frying pan and use the lean mean grill instead, tastes great and better for you too!
Thank your for reading my review.......happy grilling
I purchased the George Foreman 11761 Grill & Griddle about three months ago. I'd diligently saved up my Dooyoo points and ordered this item via Amazon. I was really looking forward to receiving it because I'd heard great things about the lean, mean grilling machine...
I'd decided to buy a grill and griddle combo mainly so that I could cook a full a fry up on the machine. At the time I paid £65.00 - which I thought was pretty reasonable, but this is currently on offer on Amazon for £50.94 - so you can pick it up for even cheaper.
When the George Forman arrived I was amazed by its size - it's massive. I know that a lot of people buy George Foremans to take camping, but in my option this particular model is far heavy and bulky for that. It is almost the same width as my kitchen worktop!
The grill and griddle also came with an instruction booklet and we received a selection of speciality cooking utensils to use with the grill. The instructions are fairly simple because the Foreman is very easy to use.
You can cook quite a lot of meat on the grill and the griddle because of it's size. You do need to watch your food though, because if you overcook your meat then I find that it becomes very tough and dry.
You'll find that a lot of fat drips off your food- it also makes me feel ill when I think about it because in other circumstances that fat would probably end up in my body (yuck).
Although I like the way it cooks, the main thing that lets this product down is that it's a pain in the bum to clean. The grill plates don't come off the Foreman, the product is really bulky and because I can't detach anything I find it hard to get the utensil thoroughly clean. I can't put it in the washing up bowel - I just have to scrub everything separately. Also, removing the congealed fat from the drip tray is a really grim job...
Overall I'd say that I'm quite disappointed with the George Foreman grill and griddle... I thought it would be a quick and easy way to cook healthy food, but instead I've found that it consumes a lot of time, and nine times out of ten it's easier to use the conventional grill on the cooker.
I do like the George Foreman concept, but personally I think this particular model is too big, it's too bulky and it's too difficult to clean. I can only award it a disappointing two stars.
For those who are looking for an extremely quick and healthy way of cooking a variety of items I would recommend the Grill and Griddle in a heartbeat:
The double grill allows for the meat to be cooked from both sides at once cutting cooking times by almost half whilst the griddle allows for vegetables/eggs and other "frying" items to be cooked at the same time. The drip tray allows for excess fats/oils to be drained allowing for a healthier meal time.
The George Foreman is easy and quick to start up, needing only to be plugged in and switched on it is ready for use in a matter of minutes. Once you are finished it is also very simple to put away, needing only to be wiped down with warm water and stored away.
For myself it has offered a great alternative to messing around with ovens/griddle pans and saucepans and has made meal times much quicker and enjoyable especially when you are in a hurry.
Great for cooking a wide variety of foods I would recommend this to be a kitchen staple.
Go out and buy it. fantastic product. I leave it out on the kitchen worktop and use it everyday - great for frying eggs on, cooking bacon,sausages, nice and easy. Only pain is cleaning it all as plates are not removeable. Recommend this product 100%
Beats messing about with a gas or charcoal bbq when camping, providing theres electric hook up of course. Heats up really quick
I have cooked breakfast on it, saves grill saucepan, and frying pan.
I`ve done chicken, steak, mushrooms onion.
I found if you clean it with a kitchen towel straight away cleanings easier and i always use one cal, after i used this once i went back and bought another two for family and friends.
it was that big we could fit enough on at once for a family of four bbq. Also like the fact its like a hot plate keeping things warm while other things cook.
It has two different temperature knobs one for the covered side and one for the hot plate.
Its so versitile and lovely to cook breakfast outside with the family in the summer save sweltering in your motorhome/caravan.
Pity it hasnt got a carrier bag
George Foreman's going to mess you up....Grill & Griddle Style! / Short name: George Foreman 11761

BBA's thought's on politics
Since everybody has become a political expert the past few months, heres my not-so-professional analogy of the current situation. It's not intended to start yet another debate, just to provide some light hearted entertainment from either side of the fence. Like it or not you should get a few laughs out of it:
Dubya enjoyed his time in the White House and decided to leave his successor a little surprise. So he took a dump in the presidential toilet without so much as a courtesy flush. Obama moves in, gets excited, and goes and drops a loaf of his own on top. He finishes up, flushes, and it doesnt go down. He starts frantically looking for a plunger but finds nothing. The bowl is pretty full but the water at least stopped rising.
Just then, Biden wanders in, Dude, Barry, we made it! This is gonna be aweso .oh my God. WHATD YOU DO?????
STFU Joe, Bush did it
I dunno man, some of that looks pretty fresh.
Okay fine, some of it is mine, but G-Dub clogged this shit up.
Pun intended?
Fuck you Joe.
Youre such a dick sometimes. Look at me, Im the first black president ..get over yourself, youre half white.
Obama looked pissed but let it go. You know theyre gonna blame all of this on me, right? We need to do something.
They stared for a few minutes and didnt have any great ideas. Suddenly Joe asked, Well have you tried flushing it again? as he reached for the handle.
No wait!!! Obama shouted, but he was too late and the flushing had begun.
As the clog stayed put the water level began to rise closer and closer to the edge of the bowl. As the brown water began flowing over the rim and onto the floor Biden looked at Obama, shrugged, and said, Well thats all Ive got. Good luck man and walked out. Obama muttered a few creative cuss words and continued to stare at the rising water on the floor. He grabbed a few throw rugs to try and cover it up but eventually they got waterlogged and sank to the stinky bottom.
Suddenly China wandered in, smelled the air, and looked at the situation. Uh oh, rooks rike youve got a probrem!!
No shit.
Rooks rike rots of shit.
Ugh. So are you gonna help or are you just gonna stand there?
I thin I can help. I have prunga, but it going to cost you. You want?
China ran out to go find the plunger and Obama continued to stare, frustration growing by the second. Just when he thought it couldnt get any worse, in wanders the UN.
Hey man, welcome to the party! Whats that smell?
I dont wanna talk about it.
Oh damn, did you do that???
No, Bush left it for me.
Yeah I bet. You should really consider changing your diet. This smells terrible and is really making it uncomfortable for the rest of us. You should try some of the vegan dishes weve been getting lately.
Yeah Ill think about it, that doesnt sound have bad. Can you give me a few minutes to get this taken care of?
Yeah whatever. Good luck, Im out.
Just then China bursts back in with a cheap looking plunger. Look I help, Im impotent.
You mean important?
That what I said, impotent.
Gimme that. Obama starts hammering away at the clog. Just as it starts to move the plunger breaks in half. Goddamnit!! Where was this POS made??
Figures. .I mean ..Sorry.
It cool, we know. You still owe me though. Im outta here. Good luck roundeye!!
He tries flushing more, jiggling the handle, kicking it, you name it ..but without a plunger the clog stays, the water level keeps getting higher, and the room keeps getting stinkier. Meanwhile, Romney is outside the gate jumping up and down and waving around a tooth brush, yelling, Look guys I can help, I have just the tool for the job!! Let me in!!!

Happy New Year for all! Let it be better and more creative than 2004 ! :)
All of the good of Engine_v0.2 is here, other things are rewritten >:) Rewrite process tooks 5 months and there is some incomplete stuff still. Session in the University comes closer, I have less free time in the end of the year. Unfortunately I have no time for new demos. Release of 0.3 version postponed till next month or two. Right now the Engine is in the working condition (68kb of shaders, 970kb of cpp|h files, 56kb of scripts). You can download demos of beta-version here (640x480 39Mb) and here (320x240 15Mb, VERY low quality). 3 test scenes (graphics is at the "Cubes vs Spheres" level) contain: indoor/outdoor scenes; hardware stencil and depth shadows; point, cubemap modulated and directional lights; systems of particles; flares; HDR; physics and 2 fortuitous bugs :). Other features of the Engine, which are absent in demos: 3D sound, hardware skinning. There are no downloadable sources because it's a raw beta >:) All of test scenes and the Engine itself are controlled by scripts like that.

Great thanks to
for the
GeForce 6800 GT
, and especially thanks to Keith Galocy and Great Britain NVIDIA office.
This splendid card surpasses my old
for 2-4 times.
I had the same feelings when I switched from MX to FX family :)
FPS is exceeded in all of the demos and all of them are still without nv40 optimizations :)
The card has excellent overclocking potential - it runs without problems on 400/1100 MHz
(I didn't tryied further tests).
I have 300W power source (PowerMan) and there is no any troubles with power (AthlonXP 2500+, 2 HDD).
So, I could recommend it to everyone ;)
Some "warm" words about UPS:
27 September I received a phone call from Moscow concerning the load from Great Britain. I was informed that I had to pay rather large customs duty. So I was shocked a little and moved to the Tomsk custom-house, where I got to know that goods costing more than 300$ could be delayed during transfer (I guess UPS has collusion with customs). A week later UPS had sent bills to me (customs duties $125 + UPS service $65). Transferring money throught banks took another week. As a result a passage from Moscow to Tomsk lasted 18 days and costed $190.

Engine_v0.3 (which is coming soon, but whether it be open or closed source is the question) has it's own C interpreter for a long time. Interpreter turned out to be amenable and convenient for external objects integration. What it can't to do: structures (and it isn't planned), arrays (very likely to appear). Vectors, matrixes and strings are the standart data types. External variables, functions and classes could be easily added into the interpreter. Based on this, I wrote GLSHell interpreter, which has built-in basic OpenGL functions, GLApp access and PBuffer, Mesh, Texture, Shader classes. As a result one could create simple demos without using a compiler, so it's very convenient. I'll write more detailed documentation concerned abilities and usage of interpreter, if I have time.

Terrain lods geomorphing via vertex shader. Joints of lods are absolutely invisible now. Height map is 1025x1025 in size. The terrain is renderred too fast , so here is simple but very realistic water to use free resources ;) There is a pseudo-AI to control camera. This terrain will be presented in Engine_v0.3.

Two optimizations for stencil shadows and lighting, which make possible to increase FPS 2-3 times without any new extensions :) Before I couldn't believe GeForceFX 5800 being able to render 9 ligths with shadows at the speed of 40-60 FPS... But now I can :) The first optimization is the extrusion of shadow volumes to the length equal to the radius of light source, it allows to increase FPS from 27 up to 40. With it there is no need for GL_EXT_depth_bounds_test extension anymore. The second one is a clipping of triangles, which is placed on distance greater than light source radius, via simple vertex shader. The shader moves these triangles to the infinity and sets their size to zero, so they are always invisible. I haven't seen this technique before, althought it increases FPS more than twice. There is also GLSL support and greatly updated base files. Theoretically there should be no problems with ATI cards...
PS: All these optimizations will be included in Engine_v0.3 (this demo was just another successful experiment :))

Release of Engine_v0.2 is ready. Unfortunatelly I was unable to test it on ATI,
so there could be some problems :( There are many new features:
correct physics with joints and ragdoll,
easy interpreter for configs with for/if/else,
ARBtec1.0 "shaders" (ARB_texture_env_combine+dot3 parser),
work on all cards beginning from GeForce2,
post screen processing,
playback ogg, mp3 and wav files via OpenAL,
mesh export plugin for Maya,
and may be something I forgotten :)
Great speedup, big bugfix.
If you have some problems with running of the Engine_v0.2, you could see it's work here (17Mb). Some screenshots: 00, 01, 02, 03, 04, 05, 06, 07, 08.

Calendar 2019-2020
Approved by the faculty 5/10/17
NOTE: Because no Williams student should ever have to choose between important religious, academic and athletic commitments, College policy provides for students who wish to participate in religious observances that conflict with other obligations to make arrangements with their instructors to do so.
The policy, approved in 1984 by the faculty and trustees in compliance with the laws of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts, states that "Any student who is unable, because of his or her religious beliefs, to attend classes or to participate in any examination, study, or work requirement on a particular day shall be excused from any such requirement, and shall be provided an opportunity to make up such requirement which s/he may have missed because of such absence now-provided, however, that such makeup examination or work shall not create an unreasonable burden upon the College. No adverse or prejudicial effects shall result to any student" who makes use of this provision of college policy.
The faculty (including coaches) receive annual reminders of this policy, and are encouraged to work carefully with students in anticipating and resolving conflicts to their mutual satisfaction.

Two Hospices on Different Continents Joined by a Common Goal
GAINESVILLE - Gainesville's Haven Hospice has partnered with the Grahamstown Hospice in South Africa 11 years ago.
But they've never actually met their members overseas until now.
"I think its been incredible. We came as strangers and we are leaving as friends," said David Barker, director of Grahamstown Hospice.
Haven Hospice President, Tim Bowen said, "the essence of who they are and what their staff do, is the essence of our staff and volunteers, that commitment is true, even though we are on two different continents."
Have Hospice here in Gainesville primarily provides for cancer patients and end-of-life care.
In South Africa, it's a very different story, according to Trish Gillies with the Grahamstown Hospice.
She said, "we have a lot of poverty and lack of resources, whereas in America, everything seems to be easily available."
So Grahamstown must provide the very basics, like beds, food, and shelter before dealing with patients' medical needs.
The majority of their patients are also living with AIDS.
There is also the differences in society, according to Sibongile Matambo, who told us, "in African culture it is hard to speak about death, it is a very patriarchal society, men have the say even though the homes are run by women."
Representatives from both hospices were thrilled to finally meet after so many years of working together, apart.

Health Information
Gallstones (Holistic)Skip to the navigation
About This Condition
Eat wheat bran
Decrease cholesterol build-up by eating more wheat bran-containing foods, or by taking 2 tablespoons (30 ml) a day of unprocessed wheat bran with plenty of liquid
Stay slim and trim
Lower your gallstone risk by keeping an eye on calories and cholesterol, and maintaining a healthy weight as you age
Get fit for life
Start and continue a regular exercise program to reduce gallstone risk
Go vegetarian
Choose a low-fat diet rich in vegetables, beans, and other vegetarian foods
Uncover food allergies
Work with a knowledgeable professional to see whether food allergies are triggering your gallbladder attacks
About This Condition
Gallstones are hardened formations, composed primarily of cholesterol, that develop in the gallbladder.
Gallstones are commonly associated with bile that contains excessive cholesterol, a deficiency of other substances in bile (bile acids and lecithin ), or a combination of these factors.
Gallstone attacks cause extreme pain in the upper-right quarter of the abdomen, often extending to the back. This pain can be accompanied by nausea and vomiting.
Healthy Lifestyle Tips
People with gallstones may consume too many calories1 and are often overweight.2 , 3 Obese women have seven times the risk of forming gallstones compared with women who are not overweight.4 Even slightly overweight women have significantly higher risks.5 Losing weight is likely to help,6 but rapid weight loss might increase the risk of stone formation.7 Any weight-loss program to prevent or treat gallstones should be reviewed by a doctor. Weight-loss plans generally entail reducing dietary fat, a change that itself correlates with protection against gallstone formation and attacks.8 , 9
In women, recreational exercise significantly reduces the risk of requiring gallbladder surgery due to gallstones. In a study of over 60,000 women, an average of two to three hours per week of recreational exercise (such as cycling, jogging, and swimming) reduced the risk of gallbladder surgery by about 20%.10
Use of birth control pills significantly increases a woman's risk of developing gallstones.11 , 12
Eating Right
The right diet is the key to managing many diseases and to improving general quality of life. For this condition, scientific research has found benefit in the following healthy eating tips.
|Eat whole bran
Decrease cholesterol build-up in the bile by eating more wheat bran-containing foods, such as some cereals. Drink plenty of water when you eat bran.
Constipation has been linked to the risk of forming gallstones.13 When constipation is successfully resolved, it has reduced the risk of gallstone formation.14 Wheat bran, commonly used to relieve constipation when combined with fluid, has been reported to reduce the relative amount of cholesterol in bile of a small group of people whose bile contained excessive cholesterol (a risk factor for gallstone formation).15 The same effect has been reported in people who already have gallstones.16 Doctors sometimes recommend two tablespoons per day of unprocessed Miller's bran; an alternative is to consume commercial cereal products that contain wheat bran. Bran should always be accompanied by plenty of fluid. Adding more bran may cause gastrointestinal symptoms in some people. If this occurs, consult a doctor.
|Enjoy coffee
Coffee increases bile flow and therefore might reduce the risk of gallstones. Caffeine appears to be the protective ingredient, as decaffeinated coffee has not been linked with any protection.
Coffee increases bile flow and therefore might reduce the risk of gallstones. In a large study of men, those drinking two to three cups of regular coffee per day had a 40% lower risk of gallstones compared with men who did not drink coffee.17 In the same report, men drinking at least four cups per day had a 45% reduced risk. Caffeine appears to be the protective ingredient, as decaffeinated coffee consumption was not linked with any protection. People at risk for gallstones who wish to consider increasing coffee drinking to reduce risks should talk with a doctor beforehand. Caffeinated beverages can aggravate symptoms of insomnia , peptic ulcer , panic attacks , and a variety of other conditions.
|Go vegetarian
Choose a low-fat vegetarian diet rich in vegetables and beans.
Most studies report that vegetarians are at low risk for gallstones.18 In some trials, vegetarians had only half the gallstone risk compared with meat eaters.19 , 20 Vegetarians often eat fewer calories and less cholesterol. They also tend to weigh less than meat eaters. All of these differences may reduce gallstone incidence. The specific factors in a vegetarian diet that account for a low risk of gallstone formation remain somewhat unclear and may only be present in certain vegetarian diets and not others. For example, some studies have found that vegetarians eating a high vegetable fat diet had elevated rather than reduced risks of gallstone formation.21 , 22
|Cut the cholesterol
Some studies link cholesterol to the risk of gallstones. Eating more vegetables and fiber while avoiding eggs may reduce your risk.
Cholesterol is the primary ingredient in most gallstones. Some,23 but not all,24 research links dietary cholesterol to the risk of gallstones. Some doctors suggest avoiding eggs, either because of their high cholesterol content or because eggs may be allergenic. (See the discussion about gallstones and allergies below.) A recent study of residents of southern Italy found that a diet rich in sugars and animal fats and poor in vegetable fats and fibers was a significant risk factor for gallstone formation.25
|Uncover food allergies
Work with a knowledgeable professional to see whether food allergies are triggering your gallbladder attacks. Eggs, pork, and onions are common culprits.
Gallbladder attacks (though not the stones themselves) have been reported to result from food allergies . The one study to examine this relationship found that all of the participants with gallbladder problems showed relief from gallbladder pain when allergy-provoking foods were identified and eliminated from the diet.26 Eggs, pork, and onions were reported to be the most common triggers. Pain returned when the problem foods were reintroduced into the diet. Doctors can help diagnose food allergies.
Our proprietary "Star-Rating" system was developed to help you easily understand the amount of scientific support behind each supplement in relation to a specific health condition. While there is no way to predict whether a vitamin, mineral, or herb will successfully treat or prevent associated health conditions, our unique ratings tell you how well these supplements are understood by some in the medical community, and whether studies have found them to be effective for other people.
For over a decade, our team has combed through thousands of research articles published in reputable journals. To help you make educated decisions, and to better understand controversial or confusing supplements, our medical experts have digested the science into these three easy-to-follow ratings. We hope this provides you with a helpful resource to make informed decisions towards your health and well-being.
3 Stars Reliable and relatively consistent scientific data showing a substantial health benefit.
2 Stars Contradictory, insufficient, or preliminary studies suggesting a health benefit or minimal health benefit.
1 Star For an herb, supported by traditional use but minimal or no scientific evidence. For a supplement, little scientific support.
1 Star
Betaine Hydrochloride
Refer to label instructions
People with gallstones may have insufficient stomach acid and may benefit from supplementing with betaine HCI.
According to one older report, people with gallstones were likely to have insufficient stomach acid.27 Some doctors assess adequacy of stomach acid in people with gallstones and, if appropriate, recommend supplementation with betaine HCl . Nonetheless, no research has yet explored whether such supplementation reduces symptoms of gallstones.
1 Star
Lecithin (Phosphatidyl Choline)
Refer to label instructions
Phosphatidylcholine (PC)-a purified extract from lecithin-is a component of bile that helps protect against gallstones. Supplementing with it may help dissolve gallstones
Phosphatidylcholine (PC)-a purified extract from lecithin -is one of the components of bile that helps protect against gallstone formation. Some preliminary studies suggest that 300-2,000 mg per day of PC may help dissolve gallstones.28 , 29 Some doctors suggest PC supplements as part of gallstone treatment, though the supporting research is weak.30
1 Star
Milk Thistle
Refer to label instructions
Milk thistle extracts in capsules or tablets may be beneficial in preventing gallstones.
Milk thistle extracts in capsules or tablets may be beneficial in preventing gallstones. In one study, silymarin (the active component of milk thistle) reduced cholesterol levels in bile,31 which is one important way to reduce gallstone formation. People in the study took 420 mg of silymarin per day.
1 Star
Refer to label instructions
In one study, a mixture of essential oils successfully dissolved gallstones. The most effective herb in that mixture is available only by prescription, but peppermint oil is similar to it.
According to preliminary research, a mixture of essential oils dissolved some gallstones when taken for several months.32 The greatest benefits occurred when the oils were combined with chenodeoxycholic acid, which is available by prescription.33 However, only about 10% of people with gallstones have shown significant dissolution as a result of taking essential oils. Peppermint oil is the closest available product to that used in the research described above. Use of peppermint or any other essential oil to dissolve gallstones should only be attempted with the close supervision of a doctor.
1 Star
Vitamin C
Refer to label instructions
Vitamin C is needed for the body to convert cholesterol to bile acids and may help reduce symptoms of gallstones.
Vitamin C is needed to convert cholesterol to bile acids. In theory, such a conversion should reduce gallstone risks. Women who have higher blood levels of vitamin C have a reduced risk of gallstones.34 Although this does not prove that vitamin C supplements can prevent or treat gallstones, some researchers believe this is plausible.35 One study reported that people who drink alcohol and take vitamin C supplements have only half the risk of gallstones compared with other drinkers, though the apparent protective effect of vitamin C did not appear in non-drinkers.36 In another trial, supplementation with vitamin C (500 mg taken four times per day for two weeks before gallbladder surgery) led to improvement in one parameter of gallstone risk ("nucleation time"), though there was no change in the relative level of cholesterol found in bile.37 While many doctors recommend vitamin C supplementation to people with a history of gallstones, supportive evidence remains preliminary.
