Best (and worst) sports bars to watch the Bruins
Best (and worst) sports bars to watch the Bruins by TD Garden in the Stanley Cup Final against the Blackhawks
One of the many great things about being a Bruins, Red Sox or Celtics fan is that there are countless bars just a few steps away from their home venues. Not every sporting fan base in this country has this luxury.
Hub sports fans can still get that great "all for one, one for all" atmosphere without paying $8 for a watered down Bud Light.
Bruins fans, in particular, like their beer and they like it cheap. Here are the plusses and minuses for watching the game at a bar around the house that Shawmut Bank built.
Vito's Sports Bar
54 Salem Street
If you want to venture away from the Canal Street bleep-show and get as far away as you can from the North Station T stop crowd, Vito's in the North End might do the trick. There are three large flatscreens in the front with three smaller screens behind the bar. The painting of boxer Rocky Marciano lets you know it's a true Boston sports bar and the framed autographed photo of 1990s WWE female wrestler Sable on the women's bathroom door lets you know you're in Bruins territory.
The Grand Canal
57 Canal Street
The outside patio is fun if its 75 degrees and sunny (which occurs here two or three times per year) with a scenic view of Route 93. Has plenty of TVs, which is a huge plus.
Boston Beer Works
112 Canal Street
Not the ideal place to watch a game. If you want a giant slice of watermelon in your beer, you probably aren't much of a B's fan anyway.
Porter's Bar & Grill
173 Portland Street
The best thing about Porter's is that it tends to hide and therefore you might actually be able to get a seat in front of a TV during a Bruins Stanley Cup game (unthinkable, right?). It has 12 beers on tap, one decent-sized projection screen and two small flatscreens behind the bar. There is a chance that this place could be a little too upscale for some die-hards, however. There's a sign above the bar that reads, "Hippies use the backdoor – No exceptions." Well, the average 20 or 30-something Bruins fan isn't known to be too shy around the bong – so Porter's will likely be a third or fourth choice for true puck heads.
The Littlest Bar
102 Broad Street
It's a little bit of a hike from the Garden but B's fans are a gritty bunch. It is what it claims to be – little – and has just a couple of TVs. Still, this place has the potential to get rowdy.
The Red Hat
9 Bowdoin Street
Also a bit of a hike from the Garden. Might want to rickshaw this one. But down those stairs is a solid B's atmosphere.
Stanza dei Sigari
292 Hanover Street
Want to smell like Bobby Orr and Phil Esposito did in 1972 after a night out on the town? Stanza dei Sigari is your best bet – because you can smoke cigars and rip butts INSIDE.
Hurricane O'Reilly's
150 Canal Street
As soon as the last goal is scored it has the potential to turn into an episode of Wicked Single – aka a messy grind-fest on the dance floor with a bunch of guys in Lucic jerseys looking to slide the puck past the goalie.
This place will be next to impossible to get into on a game night this week as it is a bandwagon fan's dream bar.
The Sports Grille
132 Canal Street
It's a sports bar with lots of TVs, food and beer. Inside you will find tributes to Kareem Abdul-Jabbar and Wayne Gretzky. Guessing the owners are either from LA or Generic-ville, USA.
The Four's
166 Canal Street
It was once voted the No. 1 sports bar in America by Sports Illustrated and you can eat a sandwich named after Ray Bourque. Another spot that will be next to impossible to get into but if you show up at 3 p.m. or so, you'll likely be set for a fun night and a $732 tab.
Sullivan's Tap
168 Canal Street
The quintessential Bruins bar where the PBRs and Bud heavy's flow like Coors Light, err, water. It's cash only, so be prepared to slip the fire marshal a couple Abraham Lincolns.
Other options: McGann's Irish Pub, Stadium sports bar & grille, West End Johnnies, The Greatest Bar, The Harp, Coogan's

text: First of all I would like to say how jealous I am of so Many of you that you knew about making money this way long ago. After randomly shooting a recommendation to a friend via LINKEDIN i got an email back and Thank {supreme being} I read it! He said he had changed the mutual line of work we were in but was dong something on the side I should check out. he mantioned making $X,XXX a month and i thought ok here comes the mlm speech, Id been selling junk on ebay for extra cash until then. Then he gave me a run down, (and a cpl screen shots) and I was hooked. He showed me a cpl simple ways to get started and here I am knocking on the door of 800 -900 bucks my first month using some very simple (esp for not computer savvy me). Luckily for me I get to ask questions and annoy him via IM all day, but Ive also learned to twist many methods I've seen on her and incorporate in to what I'm working on. I feel funny going out war driving to do my posts, but I figure doing what it takes now will make it all worth while later. Im not the greatest at writing ad copy but have focused on a particular niche that i dont see mentioned much on here and its working pretty well, Im planning to use earnings to buy some pva's and hopefully be able to scale my method a bit. I think if I can implement on a regional scale vs. fairly local i should be able to stash away $700-800 a week. I know thats nothing to some of you but its wonderful for a broke newly wed who used to meke a pile of money in a suit, and now makes barely anything in a suit..hehe So thanks again for all the reading ( Ive been quite the lurker) and I wanna give a shout out to my teacher (who i will let remain nameless ) who i met playing an MMORPG for showing me that the same methods i used to cheat on a game that simply wasted my time, could be turned into a financial gain. I hope to share more in the future about methods and help you guys the way reading your stuff has helped me. Also, for those thinking you have to be extremely computer savvy to pick up on things you don't you just have to read adn implement, you can spend time thinking, or spend time doing. theWombat :beach2: <-- that'll be me one day haha And also, for all the other noobs out there

Through public policy advocacy in Richmond, NVTC has long promoted a two-track economic development and job creation agenda to benefit its members and the Northern Virginia technology community.
Track 1: Enhance the Commonwealth's tools to attract mature companies seeking to expand, relocate, move corporate headquarters, establish research operations and otherwise bring job growth and tax revenue to the Commonwealth.
Track 2: Employ a comprehensive "grow your own" strategy to encourage entrepreneurs to invent, innovate, launch and accelerate their technology startups in Northern Virginia. NVTC has advocated for initiatives and policies to make Virginia the top state for entrepreneurs and a preferred location for those looking to do applied research, invent, commercialize intellectual property, attract early-stage funding, launch businesses and create jobs organically.
NVTC encourages its members to learn more about the NVTC-supported policies and initiatives listed below and how they may benefit your business.
Capital Gains Tax Exemption
CIT GAP Fund
Commonwealth Research Commercialization Fund (CRCF)
Angel Investor Tax Credit
One Stop Business Portal
Please note: The information below is provided as a resource for NVTC members so that you may learn more about the various new company formation and early-stage investment initiatives Virginia offers. The descriptions below are brief summaries of these initiatives, not complete program details. This information does not constitute legal advice and should not be relied upon as a substitute for visiting each of the state agency websites listed below. The external websites linked below are not maintained by NVTC.
Capital Gains Tax Exemption:
Entrepreneurs and investors who make qualified investments in early-stage technology, biotechnology and energy startups in Virginia through June 30, 2020, will be exempt from paying state income tax on their long-term capital gains throughout the life of the investment. If and when investments in these qualified companies are successful over the life of a company, any long-term capital gains attributable to the investment will be exempt from Virginia's income tax.
Please visit the Secretary of Technology's website at: http://technology.virginia.gov/initiatives/capital-gains-exemption-for-technology-businesses/ to learn more about this incentive encouraging entrepreneurs to come to Virginia to start their companies and investors to make substantial investments in Virginia companies over the next several years. The link above also provides information on how to be certified as an approved technology firm.
CIT GAP Fund
Through a public private partnership, the Center for Innovative Technology (CIT) validates the science behind next-generation technology, biotechnology and energy startups across the state and leverages a modest public sector investment with private sector investments at a rate of 16 times the public outlay.
Since 2005, the CIT GAP Funds have underwritten critical and immediate first financing for tech startups with high potential for achieving rapid growth and generating significant economic return. The GAP Fund's search areas include software, telecommunications, semiconductors, media and entertainment, e-commerce, networking and equipment, electronics/instrumentation, industrial/energy, computers and peripherals, biomedical and life science applications.
Visit www.citgapfunds.org to learn more about the investment criteria of this innovative program or to submit a business plan.
Commonwealth Research Commercialization Fund (CRCF)
NVTC is a strong advocate in Richmond for programs and initiatives to boost research and commercialization activity in Virginia. The goal is to promote innovation, grow and diversify Virginia's economy, provide Virginia's existing businesses with new products and services to use and offer customers, and create new technology startup businesses. One of NVTC's budget priorities in this effort is to ensure funding for the Commonwealth Research and Commercialization Fund (CRCF).
The CRCF accelerates entrance of new products and services to the market, incentivizes collaboration between institutions of higher education and companies engaged in research in high-growth, emerging industries and provides new resources to attract and retain eminent researchers at Virginia universities. Since its first awards in 2012, more than 600 proposals have been received requesting over $66 million in CRCF funding. The CRCF has invested $20 million in more than 230 of those projects to advance research in life sciences, advanced manufacturing, cybersecurity, energy and other strategically important areas. In FY2016, award recipients reported nearly $70 million in additional follow-on funding after receiving CRCF awards. CRCF is the only Commonwealth funded commercialization program that provides grants across multiple industry sectors. Funding for CRCF has dropped from $6 million in FY2012 to $2.6 million in FY2018.
CRCF awards contribute to the Commonwealth's overall plan to enhance economic development through technology research and commercialization. As such, CRCF awards must further the goals set forth in the Commonwealth Research and Technology (R&T) Strategic Roadmap and align with industry opportunities identified therein. In addition to identifying research areas worthy of economic development and institutional focus, the Roadmap provides a framework for aligning key industry sectors within the state, as prioritized by the private sector, academia, the broader research community and economic development professionals.
Learn more about the CRCF at http://www.cit.org/initiatives/crcf/.
Angel Investor Tax Credit
Virginia's Angel Investment Technology Tax Credit encourages early-stage investment in technology, biotechnology and energy startups. While Virginia is one of 20 or so states that have angel credit, ours is among the most competitive with a 50 percent leverage of the first $50,000 an investor puts into a qualified Virginia technology startup.
One Stop Business Portal:
Virginia's Business One Stop provides a single location for entrepreneurs to find and complete the needed forms to open their business, streamlining the process and paperwork entrepreneurs must undergo in seeking government permits to start a business. The system collects users' information, then provides and pre-fills the new business formation forms required by 80 percent of new businesses.
As part of the Business One Stop, the New Business Wizard walks entrepreneurs through the business formation process step by step, including business name registration; obtaining a federal employer identification number (FEIN); setting up state tax accounts, including employee withholding, unemployment tax and state sales and use tax; obtaining information on professional, occupational and specialty licenses; and getting contact information for local business licensing and zoning. As long as a user provides the system with complete and accurate information, the New Business Wizard will walk the user through the entire process of establishing a new business in Virginia, ensuring that each step is completed in the proper order.
While the goal of the Business One Stop is to be the single point of contact for all business entities in Virginia, the current system can only accommodate new business formation in Virginia. This is a new service that will be enhanced frequently.
Visit businessonestop.virginia.gov to get started.
Research and Development Expenses Tax Credit
During the 2011 Session, the Virginia General Assembly enacted legislation that established the Research and Development Expenses Tax Credit which is a refundable individual and corporate income tax credit for conducting qualified research and development in Virginia. The credit is allowed in the taxable year in which qualified research and development expenses are reported on the federal income tax return.
The Research and Development Expenses Tax Credit is comprised of a base credit and a supplemental credit that is available only to the extent that the total amount of credits granted for a fiscal year is less than the annual credit cap. The current credit cap is $7 million. The base credit is equal to: (i) 15 percent of the first $300,000 in Virginia qualified research and development expenses paid or incurred by the taxpayer during the credit year, or (ii) 20 percent of the first $300,000 in Virginia qualified research and development expenses paid or incurred by the taxpayer during the credit year if the Virginia qualified research was conducted in conjunction with a Virginia public or private college or university, to the extent such expenses exceed the taxpayer's Virginia base amount. Guidelines for the Research and Development Expenses Tax Credit are located here.
Additionally during the 2016 Session, the Virginia General Assembly established a $20 million R&D tax credit for larger businesses with Virginia research and development expenses in excess of $5 million. The new tax credit includes the same elements as described above for the alternative computation, except that it is not refundable and there is no annual limit on the maximum amount of credits allowed to the taxpayer. Guidelines for the Major Research and Development Expenses Tax Credit are located here.

This is not the cleanest animation but It moves away from the circle containing the character.
Sunday, December 03, 2006
Things change, people come into your life, and they spark a change for the better. But as quickly as they come they move away, sometimes they come back, sometimes not. At first this drawing was in response to the intial excitement of something new and better. I viewed the drawing as a new world being created, not just by me but by this new force.
Looking at this drawing now it captures and holds that excitement, but I see how unstable this new world can be. The shapes are floating in space, seperate. Nothing can be created intill they come together. Building this unstable world takes time, and patience. Sometimes though you have to let go of your feelings and be patient.
All this said, this work is still about things that can't be defined simply, which is why each drawing gets more and more complex.

This was the first time I hit a girl. I sucked at it.

Drawing #4(undecided, undefined),
I'm throwing this out in a rough state to get some feedback. I'm in the process of exploring sound and hope to have a score for this soon. But I like the default sound that comes from the fragments of music and conversations while I was making this.

Corner Performance
Nobody But Me playing by The Human Beinz, nobody but me in the corner. I love the double meanings the music adds to this piece. This performance crosses a lot of the walls I've put up for myself and the meanings I'm finding in it seem to grow each day.
I've Been Hit Harder
This is the Alison's Lesson's video.

Sunday, October 29, 2006
I saw this on my walk to school the other day. It captures the suttle reflections that I need to stop and enjoy more often.
This is a drawing from the first stop motion animation I created last week. I find myself attracted to the traces of the old character that are left behind and intrested in the vortex that is created where the character once was. I will upload the videos as soon as I add sound to them.
Monday, October 16, 2006
I shot 3 different videos over the weekend in the same space using two cameras at two different angles. This time instead of being slapped I was given permission to slap three different girls. This changes the slaps for it becomes violent and less humorous because I'm slapping girls, which Is socially wrong. But in the videos it's obvious that they are willing participants in the exchange. They begin to critique the way I hit them, and the videos become more about how I slap like a pansy. I'm given tips on how to slap them with more force. They give me permission to hit them but to not hurt them.
I found in these videos that I've become more aware of my size, I see more of a contrast in my size in relation to these girls that I'm not aware of normally. As well I notice that there's a line I don't cross. I never go too far; I never lose control.
Sunday, October 15, 2006
Text Teasers
I don't get it lately I've been plagued by a number of the text teasers. They text me messages like what up G? And I being an idiot stupidly take the bait and text them back. What follows is a tirade of messages back and fourth that seemingly could go on for hours. They use acronyms like LOL and WTF. My favorites are the girls I've been texting and when I call they don't pick up. Because they really don't want to talk to me, they actually have no interest in even dating me. They're just afraid of being alone. Constantly tapping away on their phones when they can't get to a computer to post Myspace bulletins.
Sunday, October 08, 2006
These were some experiments with adding color to the drawings. They seem to lose something with color added to them.
New Drawings
These drawings are partly about attention. Wanting the spotlight, even starving for it but being weary of completely going into it. The character is an undefined mold that is constantly morphing and changing. The time element of these pieces is non-linear, the different characters in the drawing are all the same person just at different times. The drawings take place in a spotlight and on a stage with much of the action taking place behind the scenes. Making visible vulnerabilities I seem all to willing to display.
These images are stills from videos I shot where I asked girls to slap me. I like that these slaps where staged. I'm expecting the slap, like expecting a certain rejection. i found in the begining of doing this that I couldn't look the girl in the eye, I diverted my eyes and wanted to laugh.In the last videos I did i started to look the girl right in the face, and laugh at the absurdity of the situation.
I find visually i'm more attracted to the image of me being slapped then to the videos.
Anti-Personal Ad Business Cards,
This project grew from the idea of selling an idea of myself. I have one thousand of these business cards that list negative aspects of my character, and previous relationships. I have to give them out to anyone I meet and I am not allowed to take a card once given away.
This is an update of a project I did earlier this year, the main difference being that I put my name on it this time and linked it to a Myspace account. I've also started a blog where you can post your own personal ad.

text: The Mount of Olives overlooks the Old City of Jerusalem. Prophets would come up from the desert and crest the Mount of Olives before walking into the Jerusalem. The view is spectacular - but for prophets and pundits, there is no better place to cast a vision than from the Mount of Olives, and no better time than during Easter - especially this Easter, sandwiched between the release of the latest Gnostic Gospel, The Book of Judas, and the worldwide launch of The Da Vinci Code. Both pose an enigma wrapped in a riddle inside a mystery: was the real message of Jesus co-opted when Christianity became the state religion of the Roman Empire? Our pilgrimage to answer that question sheds more light on the human condition than on the religious one.

Finding Christmas: Experiencing Christ's Presence During The Holidays Series
So many times we get caught up in the many activities that characterize the holiday season that we come out the other side simply happy that it is all finally over. We think that the world is a different place today with all the commitments and responsibilities we have in our lives. We might even think that it was easier to experience the power of that first Christmas so many years ago. However, upon a closer look, we begin to realize that the same challenges facing us today were experienced by those who were part of the Christmas story, yet they discovered the secret for experiencing Christ's presence. If you'd like to tap into this Biblical truth this Christmas, then you won't want to miss this series entitled, "Finding Christmas."

Emanuele Giaccherini's agent says he hasn't been in contact with Napoli, but didn't shut the door on a move to the San Paolo.
In the summer of 2013, Sunderland looked to have made a brilliant signing in the form of two-time Serie A winner Emanuele Giaccherini.
Snapped up for £8.5 million, the Black Cats had acquired a player with a penchant for working hard and exceeding expectations in the face of adversity.
Former Juventus coach Antonio Conte is often said to have never forgiven the club hierarchy for selling Giaccherini, the industrious midfielder a favourite of his.
Yet Giaccherini struggled to adapt in his first Premier League campaign, not giving all to Gus Poyet's side that observers had anticipated.
In the summer the 29-year-old chose to brush off offers to return to Italy, and returned this season 'a totally new player' in the words of Poyet.
That didn't last long, however. In his first start of the season against West Ham – a match in which Giaccherini did quite well – the diminutive midfielder came off injured.
And he's been on the treatment table since. That being said, he's reportedly wanted to replace an injured international team-mate of his at Napoli – Lorenzo Insigne.
Giaccherini's agent spoke to Radio Kiss Kiss to address the Partenopei rumours, noting there had been no contact but not ruling out a move.
Furio Valcareggi said: "I know their sporting director Bigon and if he wants a player of mine he calls me, which he hasn't done.
"Giaccherini is well at Sunderland, but the idea of Napoli is flattering and a return to Serie A is intriguing. There are similarities between Emanuele and Insigne.
"With a call from Bigon [could a move happen]? I don't know, if you want something to happen, you make it happen – there is nothing that can stand in the way of will."
The ball seems to be in Napoli's court for any move given Valcareggi's words, though it's uncertain how Sunderland would react to an offer for the Italy international.
Giaccherini should return to fitness in the coming weeks, which will give an indication as to where Poyet believes he stands in the squad.
Napoli's list of targets to stand in for Insigne is quite extensive at the moment and it remains to be seen if Giaccherini is a top option or an alternative.
The Partenopei may pursue hardest whomever they're able to get on loan in order to assess whether they'd like to make the move permanent even when Insigne returns.
It's not yet clear whether Giaccherini could be that man, though his agent doesn't seem to have any objections to bringing the Italian back to Serie A.

The Salt Covenant:
The Ancient Hebrew Covenant that Holds the Key to The Next Great Awakening
By Ron Miller
The Salt Covenant is an ancient Hebrew Levitical covenant found by name in the Bible three times (Lev. 2:13, Num. 18:19, 2 Chr. 13:5) and alluded to throughout both the Old and New Testaments. This covenant has often been confused or mistaken with a Middle East loyalty pact also called the Salt Covenant. However, the Levitical Salt Covenant in the scripture has nothing to do with wedding ceremonies, loyalty partnerships, or friendship covenants.The biblical Salt Covenant is so powerful that when Abijah the King of Judah with four hundred thousand men faced Jeroboam King of Israel with eight hundred thousand men, he said these words before they engaged in war: �Ought ye not to know that the LORD God of Israel gave the kingdom over Israel to David forever, even to him and to his sons by a covenant of salt.� (2 Chronicles 13:5) Can you imagine standing before an army twice the size of your army and warning them that they ought to consider before attackingus that we are in the Covenant of Salt! This was the mother of all Jewish civil battles in Israel�s entire history. One million two hundred thousand Jews on the battle field ready to engage in battle and Abijah preaches about the Salt Covenant. What happened next proves the power of this covenant. Jeroboam rejected the warning and attacked Abijah�s army. Five hundred thousand of Jeroboam�s men died�the largest slaughter of mankind ever to occur in one day in all of history, even to this very day. Consider the power of this covenant, and consider an army of royal priesthood, New Testament, spirit-filled believers walking in the power of this Salt Covenant!
We are watching our nation implode morally right before our eyes! We are in the mother of all spiritual battles! We are following the same pattern as ancient Israel by rejecting warning after warning! We must have a move of God. We must enter into intense covenant power with God. This is the time for all New Testament believers to grasp the revelation of the Salt Covenant and walk in it! What is pictured in the Old Testament is produced in the New Testament.
The first mention of the Salt Covenant is in Leviticus 2:13 and establishes a very powerful biblical truth�every sacrifice must have salt on it. Jesus confirmed this in Mark 9:49b, �And every sacrifice shall be salted with salt.� Actually,Jesus is quoting Leviticus 2:13b, �With all thine offerings thou shalt offer salt.� In Mark 9:50 Jesus confirms that salt is the type of personal holiness, �Salt is good: but if the salt has lost his saltness, wherewith will ye season it? Have salt in yourselves, and have peace one with another.� All through the scriptures we find salt to be, not just a type, but the true type of personal holiness. There has never been a genuine move of God, (although they may not have known to call it the Salt Covenant) that did not include the salt of personal holiness; nor will there ever be. However, the Salt Covenant does not just include salt. There must be a sacrifice for the salt to go on. A common offering in the Old Testament was bread. This is why Jesus said He was the bread (John 6:47). Jesus is the one and only sacrifice for sin. His blood alone provides imputed righteousness for those who receive Him (John 1:12). We are not the bread and never can be. Jesus said we are the salt (Matthew 5:13).
Our personal holiness has absolutely no atonement in it whatsoever. We are supposed to be the salt, not bread. The problem is that many want to try to turn their salt (personal holiness) into bread (imputed holiness) by trusting in their salt for either full atonement or a portion of it. On the other hand, many want to only speak of the bread. Walking in the Covenant of Salt is the perfect balance connecting the imputed righteousness of God and the personal righteousness that every recipient of grace has the privilege and duty to walk in. Walking in the Salt Covenant will keep you from the horrible death of self righteous legalism and religious bondage. It will also keep you from the ineffective life which is the result of no salt.
The Pharisees that Jesus scathed for their religious bigotry is an example of salt with no bread. Lot in Sodom is an example of bread with no salt. Lot was justified and even called �just Lot� (2 Peter 2:7). Lot had no testimony or effectiveness, even with his own children. His fruitless ineffective life is forever a testimony of the travesty of bread with no salt on it. God even turned Lot�s wife into what she refused to be and what could have spared the city, salt! Jesus reminded us of it with one short but commanding statement in Luke 17:32, �Remember Lot's wife.� We must remember Lot�s wife, for we as a nation are fast becoming a modern day Sodom and Gomorrah! Every truly justified saint (bread recipient) needs to be the salt of the earth! The most commonly used revival verse has the Salt Covenant in it. 2Chronicles 7:14, �If my people, which are called by my name(bread), shall humble themselves, and pray, and seek my face, and turn from their wicked ways (salt), then will I hear from heaven (when the bread has salt on it), and will forgive their sin (when His own people repent) and will heal their land(revival that becomes a reformation). Paul said in Romans 12:1, �I beseech you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God(bread) that ye present your bodies a living sacrifice (not a sin offering but a burnt offering), holy, acceptable unto God(salt) which is your reasonable service.� Why should we ever think to offer Him anything less, less than �Walking in the Covenant of Salt!�

This is my Third Round Entry for the Marx Foods Ridiculously Delicious Challenge.
The rules for round 3 are as follows:
"For Stage 3 the 15 top vote-getters will "make over" the recipe of their choice from any of the other 15 top vote-getters, except their own. In their post, they must also specify which recipe would have been their second choice for a makeover.The contestants whose recipes are the 8 most made over will advance to the next round. (to be clear, by making over someone's dish, you are voting for them to advance to the next round). Also, two of the contestants who did the best job making over their chosen recipe will also advance to the next round (as judged by Marx Foods). If there is a tie in the number of times a recipe is made over, or if fewer than 8 recipes are chosen to be made over, the tally of "second choice" comments will be used to determine additional contestants. If there are still fewer than 8, Marx Foods will choose additional contestants.For the make-over, contestants must use 3 of their remaining surprise ingredients (not including the two they used for their own original recipe). Contestants should feel free to interpret "makeover" inclusively, as long as the made over dish relates in some obvious way to the original. Make over the dish by going high-end with it … or by making it rustic. Twist the flavor profile, re-imagine it, or reinterpret it. Make it your own."
After quite a bit of of soul searching, I decided on remaking Eats Well With Others Oven Fried Tepin Chicken and Waffles, re-imagining their wonderful creation as a warm salad on top of spicy rice waffles. My Second choice ended up being Leslie Uhl's Coconut Creamy Bread Pudding in which I reworked it into a Cherry and Mixed Berry Charlotte – you can find That recipe HERE.
First up,
Savory Tepin Chili and Fresh Herb Rice Waffles
Makes 4 Waffles
1/2 Cup Rice
2 Teaspoons Tepin Chilies
1 Tablespoon Olive Oil

Reviews | Written by Ryan Pollard 17/08/2015
Reading the book does feel like hanging out with Felicia Day, and throughout you get to know and understand what it is that drives Felicia, where she comes from, and what her ambitions in life are. As you read each line, you can definitely hear Felicia's unique voice and quirky sense of humour through the words written on the page, whether it's her criticising her own fashion sense, her World of Warcraft addiction or recalling her most weirdest fan requests.
Yet, at the same time, she doesn't shy away from being blunt and truthful about being an actress and the Hollywood industry in general; she recalls about being chastised by her coach (who she describes as being "the embodiment of a human turd") during acting classes, and how, in an attempt to finance The Guild, one digital executive wanted to take control of what is her brainchild away from her and being quite sexist about it.
Even though The Guild was her baby and had been universally received worldwide, Felicia doesn't shy away from the cold hard facts about how tough making the series was and how it was depressing letting it go after so long. She's open and honest about her struggles through anxiety and depression, which is something that many of us can suffer from yet feel stigmatized by it and therefore don't share.
In many ways, this book is sort of a love story about discovering a community through gaming and the Internet while still remaining proud and confident in ones' own loves and passions (and geeky nerdiness), despite the negativity encountered in one's own mind and/or through trolls. At the beginning of her book, Day refers to herself as "that quirky chick in that one science-fiction show" or as "usually the lone female on lists of prominent nerds." Yet, throughout her career she has proven to be much more than that.
Yes, she had prominent roles on cult fan-centric shows like Buffy the Vampire Slayer, Supernatural and Eureka and she famously played Penny in Joss Whedon's online musical phenomenon Dr. Horrible's Sing-a-long Blog. But it was really the Internet where Day found her voice, and through The Guild and Geek & Sundry, she's been expressing her creativity, as well her love for gaming, to everyone and has inspired a legion of fans. Like Joss Whedon, she cares passionately about her fanbase and is very much in touch with her fans and what they want of her.
As Whedon stated in his foreword for the book, Felicia is "more than a self-made woman" and reading this book is definitely like spending an afternoon with her and getting to know what goes on inside her strange and brilliant mind. In a way, the title perfectly sums up the moral to Felicia's story and why it's inspirational to everyone: It's about embracing what makes you different and having the bravery and courage to share it with the world, and that's why the digital misfit that is Felicia Day is a talent not to be reckoned with.

If this were a boxing match between Best Buy
Circuit City got clobbered in the third quarter, as Best Buy continued to take advantage of its superior position. Now the two finish off the round that is fiscal 2007, with Circuit City looking a little more than wobbly, and dizzy from yet another series of blows from the electronics-retailing champ.
If Best Buy's latest quarterly earnings conference call is any indication, the competition, including Circuit City, is about to feel the heat get turned up a notch or two. Like any good boxer, Best Buy is sensing the vulnerability of the weakening competition, and is fully prepared to drop the hammer on them.
An important new partnership showcases Best Buy's intent to go for the knockout. Gleaning insights from the latest call, we will explore the strategy in more detail.
A partnership forged by customer-centricity
By far the most important observation that came from this conference call was news of the expanded partnership between Best Buy and Apple
My astute colleague Ryan Fuhrmann, who noted in a recent take, "Conditions may only become grimmer for the competition, now that two of the best-performing franchises in electronics have decided to join forces," didn't miss the potential impact of the deal. Grim indeed -- I am thinking Grim Reaper grim, not just for other electronics retailers, but for PC manufacturers as well. Yep, you better believe that Hewlett-Packard
What's the big deal, you say? Well, on the surface it doesn't look like much of a deal, to be honest. All that we learned from the call is that by fall, Best Buy will have approximately 200 operational Apple store-in-stores. That's it.
But let's look a little closer at the details. Though "200" doesn't leap out at you, it is actually a substantial investment for Best Buy, considering that this represents roughly a quarter of the Best Buy stores in operation to date. Capital expenditures are expected to amount to $800 million to $850 million for the year, and it's a good bet that a good portion of the "improvements in the customer experience" are related to this partnership.
It is on this topic of customer experience that I believe we begin to see the true impact of the partnership. When announcing news of the partnership, Best Buy COO Brian Dunn introduced the topic by stating, "While I'm on the subject of customers (emphasis mine), I would like to take a moment to announce with great pleasure that we'll be expanding our relationship with Apple in 2007." Later, Dunn added that the partnership is "an example of standing up for the customer." And again he points out, "We're still learning the fundamentals of this: the discipline of building everything from the customer back."
The emphasis placed on tying the partnership together with the customer only makes sense if you tuned in to earlier remarks in the call made by CEO Brad Anderson. Here, Anderson talked about the transformation under way at Best Buy and how it understands the meaning of customer centricity.
Anderson took time to talk about the adoption of the traditional view of customer centricity, which took place five years ago by the electronics retailing industry, including Best Buy. From this perspective, retailers would look at an important new product like flat panel HD televisions, and then look at ways they could serve the customer by providing superior sales and services tailored to the product. What Best Buy realized however, is that such an approach doesn't consider "what the customers' needs are and how they're ultimately served by the product."
Today, rather than beginning with a product and trying to serve up a customer, Best Buy begins with the customer, his or her "problems, wants, needs, and desires," and then serves up solutions. Anderson sums it up like this, "Our business broadly defined is about meeting the needs and wants of customers." Well, duh, that's common sense, right? Apparently not -- according to Anderson, the rest of the industry is still signed on to the old understanding of customer centricity.
But it is this new understanding of the term that has led Best Buy to expand its partnership with Apple, providing strong clues of where the customer is at today. If Best Buy is now beginning with what customers are looking for, then we can deduce from this that one of the conclusions drawn from the company's research is that customers want more Apples. Best Buy plans to meet that want and desire by opening up Apple store-in-stores.
A partnership that could transform an industry
Expect the 200 or so Apple store-in-stores to be operational by the fall. We can conclude that expenses related to the store additions will be felt more severely in the first half of the fiscal year. Couple this with another revelation made in the call: that its acquisition of Five Star in China will continue to weigh on profits through the first half of the year. Together, investors can look for "modest declines" in Best Buy's operating income growth rate in the first half of fiscal 2008. In contrast, look for acceleration in the back half that will lead to the company gaining an average of 14% EPS growth for the year.
Apple investors, by the way, should see a continued acceleration of desktop and laptop sales as the year progresses, culminating in a blockbuster holiday season. Ultimately, a year, two, or three years out, once the Best Buy and Apple partnership is fully solidified and Apple computer sales have taken serious chunks of business away from Dell, Hewlett-Packard, and yes, perhaps even Microsoft, look for a transformation to begin taking place among old PC stalwarts. With Apple raising the bar for how we think of personal computing, I expect the competition to respond. One day perhaps, we will see the hip Mac pitted against an equally sharp looking Dell or a stunning Hewlett-Packard. And those who will benefit most are consumers.
So what can electronic retailers like Circuit City do to remain in the competition? My suggestion is for them to get on the horn to Apple as soon as possible and start striking their own deals while tossing out their conventional customer centricity business model.
What are investors to do? For prospective investments in the electronics-retailing segment of the market, keep Best Buy at the top of the food chain.

Transcontinental Transmag & Seattle Times go with NELA
Monday, July 28, 2008
Press release from the issuing companyOakdale, MN – July 25, 2008 – Two more North American printers decide on NELA equipment to automate and control their plate flow in the prepress department.
NELA is proud to be one of the partners of Transcontinental Transmag on their new press project in Montreal, Canada. The NELA system will vision register, punchbend and inspect plates exiting three (3) CTP devices. With the help of NELA NPS Barcode & Page Tracking Software, the plates will be then transported to the quiet room next to the press consoles. Plates destined for the upper press deck will be navigated by a plate lift onto a multi-bin plate stacking system positioned next to the press units.
"We are excited to work with Transcontinental Transmag on this automation project that handles plates all the way to the press.", says David Klein, President of NELA. "This system will allow Transcontinental to maximize their plate through-put and quality and offers them a more efficient way of plate handling."

Backup failed in iMac with new hard drive
Hello everyone.
I am using iMac computer with Operating System X 10.6.8. I tried to back up my data and after first backup attempt, got this message:
"The backup task was aborted because the destination volume's mountpoint changed."
I tried to find out the problem and open the backup hard drive. It is a brand new model of Western Digital with 2TB of capacity. It is quite empty and not that much of files are there. Then why it will abort the backup procedure, can't get it.
I will be grateful if anyone helps me to understand the error message. Thanks in advance.

The New York-based Bcom3 Group agency, which won GM's first consolidated urban account early this year, created one 30-second spot for the all-new Vibe. The Vibe, which ranges in price from $16,900 to just over $20,000, is aimed at recent college graduates who have entered the work force and are living in the city, Pontiac has said.
Vigilante's spot will
Pontiac projected Vibe sales of 40,000 units this year. Of the 53,276 units Pontiac sold through June, 12,475 were Vibe, according to AdAge.com sibling Automotive News.
Pontiac's total first-half sales of 269,117 units are off this year vs. the same period a year ago, when it sold 281,398 units.
An East Coast Pontiac dealer told AdAge.com he has been selling a "large quantity" of Vibes to buyers 50 years and older.

Consumers could find the cost of home mortgages and car loans dropping as a result of the Federal Reserve Board's decision to chop the cost of loans it makes to member banks by half a point to 8.5 percent, analysts say.
But the apparent further easing of Fed credit policy will pinch other consumers' pocketbooks by lowering the return on some savings accounts, economists say.
''For anybody with an (existing) adjustable-rate mortgage there will be a substantial impact. And new home buyers will benefit,'' says Paul Boltz, vice-president at T. Rowe Price Associates Inc., a mutual-fund company.
Car loan rates often take longer to respond to changed credit-market conditions than do mortgage rates, analysts caution. And the interest charges on credit cards and department-store charge accounts are even stickier; they may not even budge as a result of the Fed's action.
Corporate loan rates react more rapidly to Fed policy shifts. Many analysts now expect banks' prime, or base, lending rate to fall from its current 11.75 percent level. That would boost business loan demand and stimulate economic activity.
By year's end, the prime could drop to ''about 11 percent,'' says David Jones , chief economist at Aubrey G. Lanston & Co., a government securities dealer.
Whatever the time lag in interest-rate changes, sales in interest-sensitive sectors of the economy (automobiles and housing, for instance) are expected to accelerate, analysts say. The change in the discount rate signals a further easing in Fed credit policy, most analysts say, which will lower interest rates and stimulate interest-rate sensitive industries.
For example, Mr. Jones sees the interest rate on fixed-rate mortgages falling from the current 13.55 percent level to 13 percent by year's end, while adjustable-rate loans could dip as low as 11.5 percent in the same time frame.
If the economy does rebound as a result of lower interest rates, it could finally move the civilian unemployment rate off the 7.4-to-7.5-percent plateau where it has been stuck for the past six months, Mr. Boltz notes.
But the recent cut - the first cut in the Fed's discount rate since December 1982 - also is likely to have an adverse financial impact on many individuals. That is because the action probably will lower the return paid to savers on accounts that are tied to the rates on government securities, experts say.
''If you have a variable-rate mortgage, this will help you. If, on the other hand, you are primarily dependent on interest income or have a lot of such income - as is the case for retirees - this will hurt you,'' says David Wyss, senior vice-president at Data Resources Inc. (DRI), an economic forecasting firm. And because of the growing number of savings accounts tied to market interest rates, there will be almost as many losers as winners from the Fed's move, he says.
Most analysts say the Fed's action shows growing concern - but not panic - about the pronounced slowdown in the economy. ''They have to be shaken by the barrage of bad economic news over the last few weeks,'' says Mr. Jones. He cites the 4.1 percent drop in durable-goods orders in October, the downward revision in the government's estimate of the seasonally adjusted growth rate of third-quarter gross national product to 1.9 percent, and the fact that retail sales have declined for three of the last four months.
The Fed's own announcement of the action noted that the move was taken ''. . . in the context of distinct moderation in the pace of business expansion. . . .''
While concerned by the slowdown, ''I don't think the Fed is panicked by any means,'' Boltz says.
That view is bolstered by recent comments by Fed officials. New York Federal Reserve Bank president Anthony M. Solomon said last week that ''signs of outright weakness are likely to prove temporary.''
In a speech delivered Nov. 20, Mr. Solomon, who oversees the Fed's operations in the financial markets, noted that ''the classic preconditions for recession just do not seem to be present.'' For example, he noted that business inventory levels are not overly troublesome, consumer confidence is strong, and business still has surplus production capacity in its factories.
The stock market seemed cheered by the Fed's action, rising 18.78 points to 1 ,220.30 on Friday, the first trading day after the move. The Treasury Department hailed the cut in the discount rate as ''welcome and appropriate.'' Treasury Secretary Donald T. Regan has recently complained that the Fed was keeping too tight a grip on the money supply, thus risking a recession.
The cheers from Wall Street and Washington come despite the fact that a change in the discount rate ''is more psychological than practical in its effect ,'' DRI's Mr. Wyss notes. The level of bank borrowing from the 12 regional Federal Reserve banks is relatively low. But a change in the rate does signal the Fed's intentions. The seven Fed governors voted unamimously to drop the rate last week.
Some economists also say the change in the discount rate also removed a floor below which other interest rates could not fall. ''The Fed is getting the discount rate out of the way so it can push the federal funds rate down,'' Wyss says. (The federal funds rate is the rate banks charge one another for overnight loans of reserves.) By increasing the amount of money banks have to lend, the Fed can raise or lower the federal funds rate. That rate plays a major role in setting banks' cost of funds and thus what customers are charged for loans.
By year's end, federal funds will be trading in the 8.5-to-9-percent range, vs. 9.25 percent on Friday and an average of 9.5 percent in recent weeks, says Deborah Johnson, a Fed watcher at Prudential Bache Securities.
In the same time period, 30-year government bonds, which on Friday were priced to yield 11.30 percent, will drop to the 10.8-to-11-percent range, she says.
Analysts are divided on the future course of Fed policy. Some, including Prudential analyst Johnson, say they think the monetary authorities will wait to see the impact of recent actions rather than move to ease monetary policy still further at a policy-setting meeting slated for Dec. 18.
Others, including Mr. Jones, say the recent cut in the discount rate shows the Fed ''will be sensitive to (new economic) data, and we may well get further aggressive easing'' in credit conditions at the mid-December session.

In The Creation, E. O. Wilson has a chapter called "How To Raise a Naturalist." It's full of good advice: buy the child a microscope; take the child to museums, zoos, aquaria; provide ample outdoor play time; and so on. All good advice, but I would guess pretty much irrelevant. Forty years ago when I did my one-mile walk to college through woods and meadows, along streams and pond, I never failed to encounter kids, mostly boys, building "forts," fishing, rafting, whacking each other with clubs made of goldenrod galls, and otherwise getting grass-stained and dirty. Today I meet no one along the Path except walking or jogging adults with ear buds. The kids, I would guess, are at home sitting in front of a computer. Nothing wrong with computers, but don't expect naturalists. "The child is a savage, "in the best meaning of that word," writes Wilson. "He needs to thrill to the excitement of personal discovery, to mess around a lot and learn as much as possible on his own."
I mentioned here once before the time I attended a gathering of nature writers on Martha's Vineyard, which included Ed Wilson, as always his soft-spoken, gentlemanly self. On the first morning, we took time to introduce ourselves and say a bit about how we came to be interested in the natural world. I was struck by how often the experience of a drainage ditch gave direction to our lives. I wrote later: "We were mostly children of the suburbs. More often than not it was while mucking about in a ditch that we discovered what would become the passion of our lives. Ditch water, in dribble or flood, is the stuff of creaturedom, the great animator that turns cracked suburban mud into Darwin's tangled bank. Loosestrifes soak their feet in it. Knotweeds slurp it up. Striders stride and whirligigs whirl on its slovenly surface. A seasonal zodiac of frogs, newts, salamanders, mudpuppies, crayfish, turtles and snakes. Even a trickle of ditch water is an invitation to play -- dams, canals, bridges, boats -- squishing barefoot in the mud among the cattails, shattering the gothic webs of argiope spiders. That was the story for so many of us: ankle-deep in ditches, struck unconsciously and unalterably with the prodigiousness of life, a burry, buggy, algae-slicked introduction to nature's inexhaustible capacity to surprise."
When we have paved over the woods and fields, when chemically-addicted suburban lawns stretch in unbroken continuity from sea to sea, when ATVs and snowmobiles have invaded the last vestiges of wildness, there will still be ditches. Down at the back of the subdivision, at the side of the road, behind the mall. Places where a curious, outdoorsy kid might discover her inner savage -- in the best messing-about, budding-naturalist sense of that word.

I got Amsterdamned, The Lift & Down all for around $16 each as pre-orders from Deep Discount with the recent 15% off codes. They still have most of the recent BU releases quite cheap, and there's currently a 10% off coupon on there.
OK Thanks. I've never ordered from DD because I've heard they take forever to ship but those prices may sway me to finally open an account. I could give them a try and see how it goes.

- Wedding: October 2014 - Church
Simple question for Catholic bees or those who are doing/had a Catholic ceremony…
I am doing the last minute stuff for our wedding (putting together a program to help out those participating in our ceremony – readers and such). We are not having a singer, only a pianist, and I just noticed that the guide we have states "if the acclamation is not sung it is ommitted". I feel like a bit of an idiot but does that mean that it just does not take place at all??? Or that the verse is not read along with the Alleluia??? Thanks!

Play readings are an easy and fun way to get involved in amateur dramatics. Non-members are welcome.
Our next play reading will take place on Monday, 13th April. You may arrive at 7:00 pm and the reading begins upstairs at 7:30 pm.
"My Sister in this House" by Wendy Kesselman
Winner of the Playbill Award. This extraordinary drama is about a celebrated 1930's French murder case. Two maid's sisters were convicted of murdering their employer and her daughter. This very cinematically structured work explores the motivations that led the sisters to commit murder.
New York Times " A crucible of psychosexual horror".
New York Post "A subtle almost tender study of four lonely women whose strange and complex relationship ends in an outrage of violence…..a haunting beauty of a play".

Alps dad: Rider was hit target
THE cyclist murdered in the Alps massacre was embroiled in a "bitter £1million feud".
Sylvain's relationship with Claire was of growing concern
Police probing the September killings first focused on an alleged spat in the Brit family.
But now it has emerged Mollier, 45, had sparked a family row by shacking up with a wealthy heiress 16 years his junior.
Pharmacist Claire Schutz, 29, gave birth to Mollier's son, Louis, in June.
In October 2011, she had been handed a £1.1m pharmacy business in Grignon by her parents.
But divorcee Mollier angered the Shutz family with plans to take three years off from the factory where he worked.
A source close to the Schutz family said: "Sylvain's relationship with Claire was of growing concern. There was a bitter dispute and this got worse when Sylvain took three years off to effectively live off Claire's money."
Mollier's brother Christophe said: "There were serious frictions between the Molliers and Schutzs."
Engineer Saad al-Hilli, 50, from Claygate, Surrey, his wife, Iqbal, 47, and her mother Suhaila al-Allaf, 74, were found shot dead in their BMW.
The al-Hillis' daughters, Zeena, four, and Zainab, seven, survived the attack.
Lead investigator Eric Maillaud confirmed he was aware of the tensions between the French families.

New challenges demand tailored solutions designed to meet the needs of the modern day road, airports and construction sectors.
Conventional Bitumen may not be able to help address all of these challenges, but Polymer Modified Bitumen (PMB) is a proven solution to deal effectively with some of them.
Conventional bitumens modified with carefully chosen polymers can greatly improve the properties of the asphalt mixture providing benefits such as the following when compared with conventional bitumens:
- Improved rheology – elasticity recovery and viscosity.
- Reduced chances of fatigue cracking.
- Reduced chances of low temperature cracking.
- Improved fuel resistance.
- Improved adhesion/cohesion.
Shell Bitumen has been a leading player in the development of PMB technology over the last 40 years and has developed the Shell Cariphalte range of PMBs that have been successfully applied to iconic projects across many different continents. Shell Cariphalte PMBs are manufactured by blending selected high performing polymers with carefully chosen base bitumen. This allows them to be used in challenging situations where superior performance is required. Shell Cariphalte PMBs can be formulated to overcome specific challenges such as improved resistance to deformation or to provide better adhesion between bitumen and aggregate than conventional bitumen.
Key benefits:
- Durability – Due to its resistance to permanent deformation and superior resistance to stress compared to conventional bitumen, Shell Cariphalte is the ideal choice for busy roads.
- Reliability – The reassurance of knowing you have a reliable product created by one of the world's leading technical specialists in bitumen manufacturing.

- Shell Cariphalte High Performance - Enjoy a multitude of benefits.
- Shell Cariphalte Thin Surfacing - Designed to meet modern surfacing demands.
- Shell Cariphalte Dense Mixture - Designed for heavy use.
- Shell Cariphalte Fuel Resisting - Increased resistance where it's needed most.
- Shell Cariphalte Racetrack - A high-performance surface for high performance vehicles.
Solutions for tough conditions
Hockenheimring Racetrack, Baden-Württemberg
Germany's Formula One™ famed Hockenheimring Baden-Württemberg racing circuit, which has hosted Formula One and Deutsche Tourenwagen Masters (DTM) races, seats 120,000 spectators. It was considered too long (6.8 km) and impractical for spectators because various sections ran through densely wooded areas.
In 2002, a 62 million rebuild resulted in a shorter circuit and Shell Cariphalte Racetrack was chosen as the bitumen of choice for the resurfacing of the track. The Shell Cariphalte Racetrack used at Hockenheim was blended at a nearby plant to meet the track's requirements. Product qualities such as elastic recovery, penetration and softening point were all carefully controlled to meet the needs of the circuit's FIA Grade 1 licence.

This holiday season, we're spotlighting the artists and craftspeople who make beautiful objects in the cities we call home. Read on for a close look at our Bud Vase + Coffee pairing, which we created in collaboration with the New York–based small business ANK.
"I love all things, not only the grand but the infinitely small: thimble, spurs, plates, flower vases..." — Pablo Neruda
Ariela Kuh makes objects whose meaning extends beyond their designated use. As she says: "I make things that I would want to live with for a long time."
Ariela got her start while teaching at the tuition-free Fleisher Art Memorial school in Philadelphia, and was later a studio assistant to ceramic artist Julie Ahn in Brooklyn. Her handcrafted ceramic tableware can now be found in restaurants like Momofuko Ko in New York, and beyond.
We chose to pair ANK's bud vase with our coffee for one simple reason: They are beautiful companions at the table.
ANK Bud Vase + Coffee pairing is available at select New York Blue Bottle cafes or online. View the complete Support Local holiday collection.
