The first major product by Taco Bell was developed in the mid 1970's and then relaunched in the mid 1990's. It was created to compete with the major burger stores being created. It contained taco meat, diced onions, shredded lettuce, tomatoes, and cheddar cheese all inside a big bun. It was more like a sloppy joe kind of burger. The original cost in the mid 1970's was $0.50 for the burger and a water.
The Taco Bell Supreme Fries are loaded with taco meat, cheese, red peppers, and sour cream. They go on and off the menu during different trends and seasons.
Taco Bell's headquarters in in Irvine, California. They have about 275,000 employees nationwide. Their Doritos Locos Tacos and their Mountain Dew Icys are very successful. They will continue to be successful for a while if they keep up with the trends considering they have been successful since the 1960's. The nearest location to us is in West Roxbury about 10 minutes away.

This African curry is a much lighter and fresher affair than Indian curries, more akin to a Thai curry in some respects, and the fried sweet potatoes were a wonderful accompaniment. I could have just eaten a plate of those on their own... I served it with some fresh wilted spinach in lieu of some greens, mainly because we had just had some delivered as part of our weekly vegetable box, so that part of the dish is not necessarily accurate...
500g Chicken
2 Large Sweet Potatoes
1 Large Onion
2 Tomatoes
2 Cloves of Garlic
2 Stalks of Lemongrass
1 Red Chili
350ml Chicken Stock
350ml Yogurt
2tbsp Ginger Puree
1/4 tsp Cardamom Seeds
2tsp Curry Powder
Fresh Coriander
1. Heat a large pan of water. In this, place the sweet potatoes, whole and in their skins, and simmer for 10 minutes. Remove from the heat
2. Whilst this is happening, Blanch the tomatoes in boiling water and remove the skins
3. In a large pan, fry the chicken until golden (about 10 minutes) and then remove the meat.
4. In the same oil, fry the onions, garlic and ginger for 5 minutes, and then add the tomato, cardamom, curry powder. Cook for a few minutes and then return the chicken to the pan, along with the stock and lemongrass
5. Cover the pan and simmer the curry for 15 minutes.
6. In a frying pan, heat some more oil. Slice the sweet potatoes into thick slices and then fry on each side until golden
7. Just before serving the curry, add the chopped chillies and yogurt, allow to heat through and then serve with the sweet potatoes and garnish with fresh coriander. Enjoy!

Field Hockey: Maryland Terrapins vs UNC Tar HeelsPosted by Christopher Blunck at 9:01 PM
Yuchen put the idea in my head to cover the #1 UNC Tar Heels vs the #2 Maryland Terrapins in Field Hockey down in Chapel Hill NC. After Julie gave the nod I made preparations to attend.
I contacted a coworker I'm friends with at Zenoss who lives in the Raleigh-Durham area and he offered me a place to stay for the evening on Friday night. I also had Al contact the associate athletic director for communication at UNC and request the credential. Dana responded very promptly and positively: Come on down!
I pulled up Google maps and plotted my way from College Park to Chapel Hill NC. Google said it was about 300 miles and would take me 6 hours. I checked in with Mark in Durham and he confirmed the route. I decided to leave early on Friday afternoon to avoid traffic.
The drive down to Chapel Hill was great: mixed clouds and sun and the terperature was in the middle to upper 70s. The leaves were turning orange and red for the Fall season, and there was very little traffic. I drove through Port Royal and through Bowling Green and there were very few cars on the road.
With satellite radio the drive goes quickly. And I was very excited to cover the field hockey game on the road.
When I arrived in Durham I went to dinner with Mark. We split some chicken wings and burgers at a local watering hole. Since Wake Forest, Duke, UNC, and NC State are all without about 20 miles of each other most restaurants and bars down there are mixed-use: there is memorabilia from all 4 schools up all over the place. There were also jerseys and photos of the Carolina Hurricanes and Panthers. My skin was crawlin being in a place like that!
Fortunately I didn't wear my Maryland colors on the way down. I think I would've been run out of the restaurant if I had worn them!
I headed over to Chapel Hill in the morning and drove around campus looking for the field hockey arena. Fortunately the people in North Carolina are very nice and very helpful. I located the facility without any problem and was about 90 minutes early. The water was running, and I was surprised by that given the drought conditions.
After parking I pulled out my bag, knee pads, and hat and headed over to Francis E Henry arena. I met up with Dana in the media office on the 3rd floor of the stadium and introduced myself. I asked her what kinds of rules they have for where photographers can and can't go.
She told me to basically stay behind the nets and to stay out of the way from the team benches. It was pretty laid back. I asked if I could go out onto the field during introduction and she said I could not. That was ok though because of the way that the sun was positioned in the sky.
The flag was on one side of the field and the sun was on the other. That meant that the teams would be backlit while looking at the flag. That would blow out the shot so it didn't bother me that I couldn't get it.
Dana left to go attend to other duties and I was left to get my gear set up. I was happy to find the "Tar Heels" network was wide open and got me out to the Internet. At Maryland the WiFi is protected and a pain.
I chatted with some of the video people and found out from them where the visiting team bus typically arrives. I then put my 17-55/2.8 DX lens on my D200 and attached my SB-800. I headed downstairs to take some test shots of a fence.
I don't know very much at all about flash photography, but I have a great appreciation for it's complexity and for it's power. I purchased Nikon's "Introduction to Creative Lighting" and have read it over 3 times. I still only understand about 25% of the material, but I'm learning...
I read about guide numbers, and the general rule of thumb regarding dividing by 10. It says that if the guide number is 110 you should use f11 at 10 feet away. Adjusting the guide number increases (or decreases) the flash output.
I wanted to take some test shots with different GN settings. When I shot my nephew and niece I didn't make any adjustments and some of the shots were way too bright. With the team coming off the bus I wanted to make sure I got the settings right so I decided to test.
When the team stepped off the bus I was ready. I got some great shots of a few players. Unfortunately most of the players were looking down at the ground as they stepped out so I didn't take very many shots. But, for the players and coaching staff that looked upwards I grabbed a shot.
When Coach Meharg stepped off she came up and shook my hand and thanked me for traveling to cover the game. I was excited and happy to do it. I hope that Maryland reconsiders giving us a media credential.
As the players headed for the locker room to prepare I returned to the media room to switch lenses. I met up with Yuchen and we exchanged some travel stories while we set up our gear. With 60 minutes to go before face-off there was a lot of time to kill. It was a nice day though, and so I made the best of it by enjoying some cheese nachos and some bottled water. There wasn't much food selection at the stadium!
I regretted not taking the time to meet up with Al to pick up his belt. I wanted to carry my 17-55/2.8 DX lens with me while I had my 70-200/2.8 and 400mm on my 2 bodies. But since I didn't have a belt I had to put the 17-55/2.8 DX lens in my pocket. I had cargo shorts on, but it's still a big lens. And from time to time you have to move quickly along the sidelines to get a particular shot. I didn't look forward to carrying this expensive lens in my pocket during the match.
But I was glad I took it with me because I was in a great position when the team moved out onto the field. Fortunately they stayed close to the bench and that meant I could stay behind the net and still get my shots of them in a huddle. The lighting was off, and if I could move onto the field I would've gotten a great shot. But I didn't want to push my luck so I stayed off the field as I was instructed.
When the game began the Terps were shooting with the sun on their back as they came up the field. That's a really difficult lighting situation because even under open sun you still have to open the aperture up to f2.8 and slow the shutter down to 1/800th in order to expose the players faces. And when you do that you often overexpose other areas of the image.
You also tend to get halos that form around the players. This is especially prevalent in female athletes or men that have long hair. The backlight gets into their hair and bounces all around in it. You end up with these photos where there's a ton of light in their hair and their faces are rather dark. Unfortunately I don't know what you can do about it...
The Terps didn't take any shots during the game and so they spent very little time on the offensive side of the field. With about 20 minutes left in the half I moved down to cover the Terps defense.
This was a good move because the Terps ended up playing 90% of the entire game on the defensive side of the field. I ended up in the corner and got some well lit shots while covering the Terps defending against Carolina. I didn't get any celebration photos (because there were no points to be had by Maryland), but I did get my share of action shots.
At half time the Terps hadn't managed to take a single shot or receive a penalty corner. Carolina had something like 11 shots at that point and 3 or 4 corners. I was hoping that the Terps would come out from halftime regrouped and ready to play. And I was looking forward to it because they'd be shooting into the sun.
Unfortunately they were pretty flat coming into the 2nd half and spent most of their time on the defensive side of the field. I readjusted my position and moved from the endzone corner that Maryland shot against to about 1/3 of the way into the offensive zone on the sideline.
The 400mm is plenty powerful for field hockey and I didn't want to get too close to the action. If Maryland did manage to score I wanted a chance at some decent light, but at the same time I realized their hopes were fading fast. When Carolina scored their first goal with about 11 minutes to play I realized the game was pretty much in the bag. The Terps still hadn't managed to take a shot or force a corner. It didn't look likely that they would rally from a deficit...
Carolina then scored 2 additional goals to make it 3-0 with 2 minutes to play and the game was finished. I geared up in anticipation of the players coming off the field. I hoped to get some good shots of them with the 17-55/2.8 lens but they looked pretty sad after the game. I understand it though - they faced off against the #1 team in the country and they didn't play particularly well. As a result I threw away most of those shots.
You can read my full writeup of the game here.
I packed up my gear and headed north to College Park. I wish I was racing home to photograph the football game between the Terps and the Cavaliers. But I think we're a ways off from being able to cover a game like that.
I made it home in time for the game and watched it from the comfort of my living room on HD while enjoying some beer and reviewing my field hockey photographs. I would have preferred to have been there in person, on the field, capturing the moment. But being at home with my wife, some beer, and my photographs is equally enjoyable.

"The Sing-Off" season two begins Monday, December 6 on NBC. Ten amazing groups will compete for a Sony recording contract and cash prizes. We'll be featuring profiles of each group leading up to the debut, and during the show's run, we'll have a review of each episode. Have an opinion on any of the groups, or the show? Comment on any article or our forum
For the past decade, a group of experienced musicians has been pleasing audiences all over the Pacific Northwest. Now, this septet brings their unique brand of vocal stylings to TV audiences around the world. Groove for Thought, a Seattle, Washington based a cappella group, will take the stage for NBC's "The Sing-Off" in December for a chance at winning $100,000 and a Sony recording contract.
Each member of the group brings an incredible musical background to GFT. For instance, Amanda, the lead soprano, has been singing or playing music since she was eight years old. Stephanie, second soprano, was playing three instruments by the time she was in middle school. Jeff, bass, was performing in show choirs at age six. Each of the members has a long history in musicianship and brings it all together to form a cohesive entity of sound.
GFT has been said to be "loaded with ear candy" and once you hear their tight vocal harmonies, you will soon agree. Calling on the muses of Bill Withers, Three Dog Night, Billy Joel and many others, GFT infuses their arrangements with a Jazz and R&B feel. Their arrangements are stunning representations of the possibilities of vocal harmonies – their crisp rhythmic movements, close intoxicating harmonies, and playful personality makes a winning combination for this group.
GFT is excited for the opportunity of singing on national stage. They are grateful for the chance to share their music with a huge audience and to work with some amazingly talented people on "The Sing-Off" cast. They appreciate the support of their fans and, for those of you who aren't a fan yet, they look forward to making you one!
Groove for Thought's Jazz style and sensibility is something brand new to "The Sing-Off." Tune in on December 6 at 8PM EST and experience their original sound. Check local listings for details.

About the author:
Jeeves Murphy: "I've only heard the a cappella version of that song before." If Jeeves had a nickel for every time he's said that, he'd be a rich man. Jeeves has been singing ever since he can remember (even before he was "Jeeves"). He's performed in classical and renaissance a cappella groups, as well as contemporary groups and barbershop quartets. He helped found multiple groups while he was in college, including the first of its kind at UMBC (The Mama's Boys) where he graduated with a degree in English Literature. Jeeves currently works in Columbia, MD as an ITS Engineer. In his spare time, he is an all around musician - playing piano, bass guitar, cajon, and of course singing Tenor (high-tenor), arranging, and vocal percussion. He's the Maryland State Ambassador for CASA and writes semi-regularly for the site (or at least when the mood strikes). Jeeves' articles focus mainly on performance and CD reviews.

Cosmetic Dentistry... how will it look when it's done?/
One of the most frequent cosmetic concerns patients ask me to correct for them are pointy "fang" (canine) teeth. What I often hear is "can't you just file down the tooth?" The solution is usually not taking away tooth material but actually adding more to the tooth, either with composite resin (white filling material) or porcelain veneers. When I suggest adding instead of taking away, it can be hard for patients to visualize what I am recommending (well, they are patients and not dentists, right?) Let's therefore go over one of the best ways to show what cosmetic enhancements can be accomplished by cosmetic dentistry today.
Yesterday I had a young woman with an attractive smile in the office who wanted this very type of esthetic improvement. Now I can show her on a computer what it may look like but seeing is believing. So using composite resin (the white filling material we use) I added to her teeth to show her the different types of improvements I can offer. I didn't bond the material nor spend a lot of time matching colours or polishing the composite as I was performing what we dentists call a "Cosmetic Mock Up".

Axel Oxenstierna Mug
Axel Oxenstierna was the High Chancellor of Sweden for a VERY long time - from 1613-1656, and during that period he watched the star of Sweden ascend to previously unimaginable heights. Sweden carved out an Empire from its incredible victories, and Axel Oxenstierna was there, for every moment of it, good or bad, joyful or bitter. His work in bettering the position of Sweden distinguishes him from his peers, and makes him more than worthy of his own mug, as well as his own Patreon tier.

Product contains 4 images of Axel Oxenstierna in a wrap around style, with a blue finish on the handle and inside the mug for a slick, polished look that all Swedes can be proud of.

HOME / article / PRINCIPLES OF SCREEN PRINTING PROCESS
Screen Printing : In this type of printing, the image and non-image areas are carried
on a mesh (woven) screen, the image areas being open or 'unblocked' in the form of a
stencil. The non-image areas are formed by 'blocking out' the mesh by coating
The paper is placed under the screen. After the screen is lowered into contact with the
paper, ink is passed across the upper surface of the screen. Where the screen is open, ink
goes through to the paper beneath.
Screen printing is an example of the stencil printing process.
Screen printing is a process in which ink is forced through a screen. The screen
printing stencil serves as a printing plate. The screen is a fine fabric made of natural silk,
plastic, or metal fibers/threads. Plastic or metal fabric is generally used nowadays. Ink is
imprinted/transferred through the image-specific, open mesh that is not covered by the
stencil. The screen printing plate is therefore a combination of screen and stencil.
It is the material, the fineness of the screen (the number of screen threads per
centimeter of fabric length), the thickness of the screen, the distance between the top and
bottom sides of the screen, and the degree of opening of the screen (the degree of screen
opening areas as a percentage describes the ratio of the total of all mesh openings to the
entire surface of the fabric) that determine the printing properties and quality of the fabric
(screen). Fabrics can be obtained in levels of fineness from 10 to 200 fibers/cm. The most
frequently used fabrics are those between 90 and 120 fibers/cm.
The screen work and printing of very detailed illustrations necessitate the use of very
high levels of fabric fineness that are matched to the resolution requirements of print image
reproduction. For screen work, fabric fineness (threads/cm) should be around three to four
times greater than the screening of the print image (lines/cm) – therefore nine to sixteen
different screen dot area surfaces per screen cell.
The stencil on the fabric defines the actual print image. The stencil is on the side of
the screen opposite the side on which the squeegee (blade) works, to avoid damage and
wear to the stencil. Manual stencils, which can be produced as drawn or cut stencils and
transferred to the underside of the screen, are used for simple solid-area print work.
Screen printing (formerly called silk-screen printing) is a stencil process whereby ink
is transferred to the substrate through a stencil supported by a fine fabric mesh of silk,
synthetic fibres or metal threads stretched tightly on a frame. The pores of the mesh are
'blocked-up' in the non-image areas and left open in the image area. This image carrier is
called the screen.
During printing the frame is supplied with ink which is flooded over the screen. A
squeegee is then drawn across it, forcing the ink through the open pores of the screen. At
the same time the substrate is held in contact with the screen and the ink is transferred to it.
The principle is shown in Fig.
Because of their simplicity, screens can be produced cheaply and this makes it an
attractive process for short-run work. Furthermore, since the image is produced through a
screen rather than from a surface the impression pressure is very low. This makes it ideal for
printing on fragile boxes or awkward shapes.
Irrespective of the type of machine the printing procedure is generally the same. A
working supply of ink is placed at one end of the screen and the screen is then raised so that
the stock may be fed to register guides or grippers on a base. The screen is then lowered
and a rubber or plastic squeegee drawn across the stencil to produce the print. Ink
replenishment is undertaken as necessary.
On most flat-bed machines the base to which the substrate is applied is of a vacuum
type. This prevents the stock sticking to the screen and being lifted by tacky inks. To a
certain extent the thickness of the ink film printed can be controlled by the pressure,
sharpness and angle of the squeegee blade.
The more upright the blade the thinner the deposit of ink. Thus, in general, fine work
requires a more upright blade. However, the type of ink, stock and machine govern the blade
setting also.
Advantages of Screen Printing Process
One of the major advantages of the screen process is the ability to obtain prints on
non-flat objects. For example, printing on bottles or other cylindrical objects is achieved by
using a press of the cylinder type described above but the object to be printed is placed in
the machine where the impression cylinder is shown. After each impression the bottle is
removed and another unprinted one substituted. There are few limitations on size or shape.
Special screens and jigs are produced for printing on shaped objects such as cups with
handles or tapering cylinders, and screens with high elasticity combined with shaped
squeegees are used for conforming to irregular objects. Print heads can also be bolted to
automatic production lines, so that printing becomes a part of the total production process of
such objects as filled polythene bottles.
i. Screen Printing on Flat Surfaces
Posters and Graphics Printing in Short Print Runs.
Large-format posters in particular can be produced relatively conveniently in fairly
small print runs. The quite thick ink film produces coloring that is very brilliant and resistant
even with halftone color impressions.
Traffic Routing Systems and Signs. Large printing surfaces for high resistance
inks are found with traffic signs and routing systems. The requirements they impose are best
met using screen printing.
Vehicle Fittings and Instrument Dials. With vehicle fittings a narrow tolerance
range of the translucency of the impression is required in addition to its precision. For
example, it must be possible for control lights to light up in precisely defined colors.
Printed Circuit Boards for Electronics. Due to its simplicity and flexibility, screen
printing is an important process during the development of printed circuit boards for
electronic circuits. Accurate printing onto copper-laminated hard paper or glass-fiber
reinforced epoxy board with etching allowance, solder resist, or assembly designations in the
necessary coating thickness is only possible in large quantities with screen printing.
Restrictions are, however, imposed on the latter as a result of the extreme miniaturization of
components and printed circuit boards.
Photovoltaic. Special conductive pastes are used to print on photo resistors and
solar cells, which serve as the contact points for current transfer. In doing so, particular
importance is placed on high coating thickness in areas that are, at the same time, extremely
small and covered with printed conductors, in order to optimize the efficiency of the energy
production with the solar cells as fully as possible.
Compact Discs (CD). Screen printing is one of the major processes for printing on
CDs. Pad printing and more recently even offset printing are also used.
Textiles. The depth of the ink absorption in textiles calls for a large volume of ink to
be supplied and screen printing is the preferable process for applying it. Clothing, canvas
shopping bags, webs of material, and so on, can be printed in both flatbed and rotary
screen printing.
Transfer Images. Screen printing is frequently used to produce transfer images for
ceramic decoration. These images are put together from ceramic pigments for firing. The
pigment's grain size necessitates the use of a screen mesh that is not too fine. After
detachment the images are removed from the base material and placed on the preburned
bodies by hand. A recognizable feature of these ceramic products is the thick layer of ink.
The images can be placed above or below the glazing.
Decorative Products, Labels, Wallpapers. Seamless decorations such as textile
webs, wallpaper, and other decorative products, as well as labels often require rotary
printing combined with reel material. Special machines are designed for this. Rotary screen
printing with sheet material is used primarily for higher print runs.
Surface Finishing. Transparent varnish can also be applied using screen printing
technology (for spot varnishing, in particular) to finish the printed product as add on value to
attract the customers.
Screen Printing on Curved Surfaces
Almost any body that has an even, convex and concave (to a limited extent) not too
structured surface can be printed using screen printing. There are virtually no restrictions
with regard to the material of the body to be printed on. Ceramics can be printed directly
with screen printing. Ceramic pigment inks can be used for subsequent baking or just a low
durability varnish applied to the glazed product. It is not always possible to print directly onto
plastic components. Surface treatment, for example involving flame treatment, corona
charging, or the application of primer is often necessary to ensure that the ink adheres.
Bottles. Glass bottles with a baked finish or pretreated plastic bottles for the food
and domestic products sector are printed using the screen printing process.
Toys.Toys, such as balls, and so forth, can be printed in full in several operational
Glasses. The screen printing process is often used for drinking glass decoration,
with thick coatings of all inks and also gold being applied.
Advertising Media. The type of advertising medium that can be decorated or
provided with some other overprinting by the screen printing process ranges from cigarette
lighters or ballpoint pens to pocket knives and pocket calculators.
Following are the parts of a screen printing press of hand operated one:
1. Frame
2. Base
3. Screen fabric
4. squeegee
(1) Frame:
The frame serves as a support for the screen fabric. It can be made from wood,
metal or any other rigid material.
a) Wooden frame:
Wood used for screen printing should be soft, straight, grained and should resist the
moisture and temperature. Wooden frame are easy to handle and assemble. The cost of the
wooden frame is less than metal frame. Leveling is also important for wooden frames.
Coating the wooden frame by a two-component lacquer protects the wood from water and
solvent. Pine or popular wood is usually used for making frames. Before making a frame,
wood is seasoned. The corners of the frame is joined by miter, end lap, or spline joints.
Angle and corner irons are sometimes used to reinforce the corners of a large screen
printing frame.
(b) Metal frames:
Steel is used for screen frames as its rigidity, life is more when comparing the
wooden frames. For corrosion protection, steel frames are galvanized or coated with
lacquer, sometime with stored varnish. These steel frames are available as rectangular or
square section. For easier handling of large frames, steel is replaced by aluminium alloy, but
care must be taken in providing rigidity. Also aluminium frames are corrosion – proof when
comparing steel frames. Leveling of metal frame is very important. This leveling is done on a
special leveling slab. Before mounting the fabric, sharp edges and pointed corners should be
well rounded to avoid the tearing of fabric.
(2) Base :
This is the surface upon which the substrate to be printed is positioned and held. It is
usually made from a thin sheet of plywood or hardboard or table. This is longer than the
frame used. Loose-pin built hinges serve to hold the frame and base together

My six year old decided to pee in the shower and to keep it in a cup next to her soaps and shampoo. Her spa needed more personality because giving her barbies and horses toothpaste facials wasn't enough.
My toddler broke my iphone, again today. It's the third time this month. She also decided that laying in the bathroom next to her potty was the perfect place to take a nap. She then added some floor licking as an extra touch.
My fiance has been working for 14 days straight and I am in desperate need of a shower.
Mommy needs a drink and I've been dreaming of these babies all day.
Live, love, laugh, and drink some sangria for me.

What are the pros? thin skin, tasty, prolific
What are the cons? some yellow eggplants
I've grown several varieties of Asian eggplant and this is turning out to be my favorite. A light lilac purple color, it is thin-skinned, making it ideal for stir-frying. I haven't tried roasting it. Occasionally some of the eggplant turn yellow and end up in the compost heap. This seems to happen more with over-ripe fruit if you don't pick them sooner; although sometimes the first fruits are misshapen and yellow. I just take those off and within a couple of weeks, the plant produces long, lilac-colored fruit.
Very easy to grown--I haven't had any pests attack my eggplant.

What are the pros? Pretty
What are the cons? Poor yield, slow growth
I grew these eggplant in 2 different towns here in Idaho; 1 in my yard and 6 at my community garden. One are flood watered, composted and soil dug, other area composted with water overhead. The two areas soil completely different in structure and use. This eggplant did very poorly with both systems and I can only attribute it to dry, arid and hot summer. I grew a beautiful eggplant from Baker Creek called Barberella however that did very well no matter where I planted it! Apperently it is not available from Baker Creek anylonger.

What are the pros? Good Producer
What are the cons? none
I'm always looking for better varieties for what I like to cook and eat. I love this one for making veggie bacon (fake bacon, or 'fakon'). It's mild taste works the best for the recipe that I found on a website and the long shape gives the 'fakon' a look close to bacon. I have frozen this and eaten later, heated up and served with breakfast. Super tasty! I have also dehydrated a few batches to take camping and it's like having jerky. Absolutely super!!!
I also like the Rosita eggplant for slicing and frying, ratatouille, and Baba Ganoush. Highly recommend both!
9 out of 11 people found the following review helpful:
What are the pros? Almost everything
What are the cons? Skin not suitable for grilling
This was a very good producer throughout the entire season until the frost. I loved the color, and enjoyed the eggplant saut?ed. I preferred not grilling this particular variety because the skin turned a bit tough. I look forward to growing it again.
10 out of 16 people found the following review helpful:
What are the pros? didn't care for these
What are the cons? didn't produce
got one eggplant out of all the effort. we are semi-desert so I guess they did not like the heat. in fairness to these, the only eggplant that produced well in heat was edrienne.

Hiring great people is absolutely key to running a great business and often, new business owners think that means hiring smart people. Lee Iacocca once said his secret to success was to "hire people brighter than me and then I get out of their way." It's great to hire smart, but my experience is that smart isn't the most important quality. "Smart" people excel at certain types of jobs but overthinking can be a weakness, and causes people to go in circles. For me, the best hiring decisions have been made on three factors. Today, we'll look at those factors from least to most important.
This is an easy one to pick out. We all want talented people who can get the job done. Employees are the by far the largest expense in any service business, so having one expert who can do the work of five entry-level workers seems like (and often is) a great deal. Finding a truly skilled individual usually means someone who does fast, efficient, and most importantly, effective work.
Unfortunately, anyone who has spent time trying to hire knows there are a bunch of problems with evaluating potential employees only based on skill. The first and most obvious problem is that a good man (or woman) is hard to find. Candidates often inflate their resumés and it takes your precious time to weed out skilled candidates, especially when dealing with skills that are hard to assess.
Owners often have the experience of being a skilled worker for someone else before they start their business. If describes you, you know that people like you usually end up taking on more than their share of work and are the employees most likely to get burned out. Burned out employees often feel under appreciated and under compensated and end up looking for another job (or starting their own business.) When a skilled person leaves they create a gap in the business that often has to be filled by the owner, leaving the owner back working in the business instead of working on the business.
More important than skill is the ability to acquire MORE skills. Throughout the life of your business, things are going to change. An employee who is an expert in the tools and techniques of today is only skilled as long as those tools and techniques remain industry standard. Some skills tend to last longer (customer interaction) while others (product specific technical skills) can stop being relevant at the drop of a hat.
Growing a business requires people who can change and adapt with every changing circumstance. Owners need individuals who can take on a leadership role and managerial responsibility. These are skills that many technicians don't have.
The best employees have the ability to learn new skills and help others while the worst employees are the ones who stick to how they have always done things because they can't grasp the new, better way of working. Finding someone who has the drive and capability to grow with your business is far more important than any specific skill they have. Start with someone who listens well. You'll be able to judge this during the first interview. In their own words, can they repeat an answer you've given them and get the details right?
As much as I believe in a candidate's aptitude, far and away the most important quality an applicant can have is attitude.
The thing about attitude is that it drives all the other fundamentals that make an employee great. They set an example for the rest of the organization when learn new skills and help others learn, too. Their fellow workers love them because they take time to mentor and to make other employees feel appreciated. And customers really, really, love them.
The other reason to hire based on attitude is because it is, by far, the rarest commodity in the business world. Finding an candidate with a great attitude is like finding a four-leaf clover or a lamp with three wishes in it. People with a great attitude will help you grow your business because they care. They will spend as much time thinking about your business as you do and always pitch in when something needs to be done without complaining. Candidate who can find the silver lining in a bad situation help others stand on good ground when times are tough.
A smart, skilled candidate with the ability to learn and a great attitude is something every owner wants to find but they are few and far between. It's almost impossible to evaluate initially whether someone is, or could be, all of these things. But in my experience, your odds are much better if you start with attitude.

We reach the end of the argument and find that the Universe had a cause. So, what is this cause?
All in Science
We reach the end of the argument and find that the Universe had a cause. So, what is this cause?
Is there a model of the universe that can avoid the beginning implied by the Big Bang Theory?
It all started with the Big Bang, right? Well, that's the question isn't it. If it did, then the Universe began to exist.
Everything breaks down. So, if the Universe is infinitely old, why hasn't it broken down yet?
In this episode, we will tackle the question of the absolutely infinite and its relationship to the age of the Universe - the first two (of four) reasons to think that the Universe began to exist.
If we're looking for a god, the origin of the universe might be a good place to start. Did the universe begin to exist? Did it have a cause? What might that cause be?
Can you be a scientist and a Christian at the same time? Hear from Georgia Tech professor Dr. Dewey Hodges.
Do science and Christianity conflict? Hear from Georgia Tech Professor of Chemistry, Dr. David Sherrill.
Science and Christianity: Conflict or Coherence?
Isn't science all about facts and Christianity all about faith? How could they possibly overlap? Which one should you trust?
If everything in this world operates on scientific laws, how can God act in the world? Wouldn't performing a miracle or answering a prayer break the laws of physics?
Can you believe in both science and Christianity at the same time? In this episode, we focus on the Big Bang Theory and Evolution.

From KeenWiki
The border or screen border is a rectangle of color that surrounds the playing screen in Keen Vorticons. Though subtle it has been used for surprising effect such as flashing when a Vorticon is killed. Most modern methods of playing render the border much less conspicuous meaning that patches relating to it are not of high importance.
Border color
This is controlled by the last value of the current palette.
Border flash
A flash occurs when a Vorticon is killed in Keen Vorticons. (Not all Vorticon enemies but rather the 'grunts' or basic Vorticons.) This can be disabled.

'The road to discovery is the most exciting journey there is.'

I believe it's imperative to shape a big awesome vision and a rich cultural experience informed by all different kinds of data, inputs and benchmarking metrics.
I have supported corporate, retail, FMCG and non-profit clients, as well as startup entrepreneurs, do more with what they already have, gain clarity on what they're missing or create something altogether new to capitalize on market white space.
Discovery, Connection, Authenticity and Innovation drive everything I do with a primary goal toward helping clients catalyze long term sustainable success reflective of the constraints and untapped potential of both their internal and external culture building opportunities.

More About Me
I come to the 'Marketing & Advertising' space in atypical fashion -not through business school or a communications degree- more from a storytelling and systems based design background informed by architecture and film making. I had an idyllic childhood growing up near the Mississippi Delta in a small town filled with farmers, bankers and other 'Busy Town' sorts where everybody knew your name and friendly conversation happened everywhere you went.
Within the past 4 years I've discovered I'm an INTJ personality type, characterized as 'mastermind' or 'walking think tank', the rarest type found in women [1 in 1,250]. Having viscerally experienced its impact for many years, I am now comforted by a better understanding of what's driving me 'in there', beyond my own cerebrally-informed Why. INTJ's are intellectually honest and approach life through a perspective-effectiveness orientation, valuing deep, careful, long range thinking around complex challenges, with an exceptional ability to perspective shift, detect patterns, intuitively perceive motivations and envision long range implications of actions. Simultaneously, we employ an effectiveness process satisfying our innate passion for achieving measurable benchmarks on-going to meet specific goals. In short, we're distinguished as Long Range Elegant Solution-ists for tackling complex challenges. All this to highlight my unique value in the context of a world requiring immediate results. I, like many others, can help achieve quick wins, and I also can help lead longer range ones, that foster greater, far reaching potential.
And finally, I believe the scope of life experience as a consumer is noteworthy, having walked in a few 'segment' shoes myself: child, pre-teen, teen, 20 & 30 something, young professional, bride to be, pregnant woman, new parent, parent of teens, parent of Millennials, daughter, daughter of in-firmed parent, personal & beauty care shopper, financial manager, health care/insurance investigator, Boomer, homemaker, wine enthusiast, vacation planner, activist, gardening enthusiast, fashionista, fitness conscious, sailing lover, plus many more.
The Facts + our Yearning for Fiction = Win Win Results
I believe we're all influenced by the Facts and our Gut --and regardless of the next sweeping wave of disruption or tech advancement this goal post shaped decision-making construct will remain, knowing one side may be more heavily weighted depending on the proposition. As for the seemingly irrational behavior we sporadically witness –it's still just a matter of digging deep enough to uncover the visceral motivation.
The Facts are 'out there' and measurable. The Instinct is 'in here' and most times requires greater lengths to understand. The most effective outcomes are expedited when these two align, as an energetic, catalyzing vibration -Right and Left Brain merged- through a visionary narrative that resolves business goals, practical operations and compels desired behavior by forging new connection or perceived innovation. And most times The Truth is a winner.
Most critical for developing any value proposition is 360 Research to unearth the relevant Facts plus Emotional triggers within a particular context. 360 Research includes exploring, as much as possible, the quantitative and qualitative data sets to reveal the most relevant Consumer, Cultural, Business Industry, Trends and Influencer inputs, to literally concoct an initial 'bubbling petri-dish stewpot' of potential. From this organic assembly, prioritized and foundational insights can be gleaned and a direction launched.
It's how you interpret this elemental alchemy early on, the collage of facts plus irrational triggers, that counts most in creating break out solutions that gain positive traction.

Just Like A Rolling Stone
Rachel Carr
On a flight to Barbados recently, I met Jade Jagger, the daughter of Mick and Bianca. Whilst being blinded by her beautiful jewellery, I remembered that her rock star dad lived next door to his ex wife, Jerry Hall, for years in the stereotypical leafy London suburb of Richmond. I grew up on the other side of the park (another leafy London suburb) and also shared a flat with Miss H of St Girons just down the road in the even leafier Kew. On a recent return to the homeland for various weddings, I took some time out with the dog and the mothership to meander down memory lane by strolling the tow path that runs from Petersham and Ham towards Richmond itself.
It's a stunner of a walk, and last year was part of the route of the Richmond Half Marathon, (on which I beat the husband by two and a half minutes. This is beside the point, but always worth putting in writing either way.) It is all but flat and takes in some fabulous views, which I hope that my below photographs do justice to. Revisiting the area made me remember what an incredible place to live Richmond can be. It is but a 20 to 25 minute train ride into Waterloo, on the air conditioned District line, but yet has all the charm of a provincial market town still. All this charm comes with quite the price tag, but that didn't stop me from dreaming about returning to this area as a homeowning resident. The place's extra curricular benefits are abundant, but importantly it has everything that this blogger needs to be happy: a huge park for the dog, a Marks and Spencers that sells food, and a Whistles
It also has some great eateries that could easily dispell any need for any home cooking. A couple of my favourites, in fact in the whole of London, are about 50 meters apart from each other in the quaint 'village' of Kew and miles apart in terms of food. The Kew Gardens Hotel has a large ground floor restaurant bar that hits the right note between relaxed London boozer and gastropub. Importantly, it is my go to London spot for the perfect burger. An accolade that I would never, ever, bestow lightly. Just over the road, is the fine dining destination: The Glasshouse. This Michelin starred restaurant is truly exceptional and is the owner of another difficult to gain accolade - it's the place that my beautiful sister in law longingly calls 'the cheese place'. Whilst its cheese board/altar is, indeed, out of this world, the other food it serves is elegant, delicious and all served by knowledgeable and accommodating staff.
Back on the mile and a half walk that the mothership and I took, we passed Gaucho, which I find hard not to enjoy even in spite of its over priced Malbec. However, given that it was mid afternoon we were not in the mood for a hunk of steak and ended up in the Pitcher and Piano on Richmond Bridge. I am usually a bit of a snob when it comes to chain bars (which I admit is often grossly unfair, a lot of the time they serve their purpose incredibly well), but this Pitcher and Piano has been frequented by yours truly more times than I can remember. It has a location that is pretty hard to beat, and if it is sunny and you are lucky enough to bag a table outside, you are well set.
It is Richmond Bridge that has made it into my shots this week several times. I have also included the picturesque Marble Hill House as well as Ham House, which is stunning though not quite in the way that this Jamon lover would like. I also thought that the Star and Garter building managed to look regal at the top of Richmond hill, despite the huge orange crane in front of it. All these shots are available in these sizes and prices - let me know of any other requests.
