Should You Switch to Windows 8?
In a word, no. Most people stick with the Windows version that came installed on their computers and don't upgrade. That way they avoid the chore of figuring out a new version of Windows. Also, Windows 8 comes with a particularly steep learning curve because it's quite different from earlier Windows versions.
Also, many of the biggest changes in Windows 8 work best with touchscreens — those fingertip-controlled screens found on expensive cellphones, tablets, and some of the latest laptops. No matter what device it runs on, Windows 8 looks and behaves the same, whether it's controlled by fingers on a touchscreen tablet or by a mouse and keyboard on a desktop PC.
On the positive side, if you manage to figure out Windows 8 once, you'll know how to run it on all of your Windows devices: a tablet, Windows phone, a laptop, a desktop PC, and perhaps even a touchscreen television. On the negative side, being designed for so many different things makes Windows 8 behave a little awkwardly on all of them.
Instead of upgrading, stick with the masses and stay with your current computer. When you're ready to buy a new computer, the latest version of Windows will be installed and waiting for you.
Windows 8 doesn't support Windows XP mode, a popular way to run a Windows XP desktop inside its own window within Windows 7. If you needed Windows XP mode in Windows 7, don't upgrade to Windows 8.
For more information about Windows 8 and its features, explore Windows 8 For Dummies, available online.

The Collection
Drawn to Excellence features eighty-six sheets created by seventy artists working primarily in Italy and France between 1500 and the 1830s. These works are from the outstanding American collection of a Smith alumna who is widely known for her discernment, connoisseurship, and generosity. The works in this exhibition represent only a portion of the collector's holdings. An ardent supporter of museums in both the U.S. and abroad, she has built her world-class collection over a brief sixteen-year period. Her devotion to the study of drawings and her willingness to lend works from her collection to public institutions has greatly expanded the available knowledge on these precious works of art.
Although the collection extends into the mid-20th century, most of the works date to between the 16th and early 19th centuries. The collection is predominantly Italian, and many of the collector's early acquisitions were of 18th century Italian drawings. The collector often favors works with well-documented provenance (history of ownership), and eschews collecting by artist name. The guiding principles are the collector's personal taste and her desire to take advantage of the best opportunities at hand. She lives with her drawings, displaying them in her home where they are hung salon-style and ordered roughly by national school and chronology. She also delights in sharing her collection with knowledgeable and interested viewers, and we are grateful that she has allowed SCMA to extend this circle through this exhibition.
The works included in Drawn to Excellence were specifically chosen to show the strength rather than the breadth of the collection, and were also selected to dovetail with the course ARH 240: French and Italian Drawings: Renaissance through Romanticism, taught by the 2012 Ruth and Clarence Kennedy Professor of Renaissance Studies, Suzanne McCullagh (Smith class of 1973).

Get the Look: Sarah Jessica Parker at the Met Ball 2012./
Makeup Artist Leslie Lopez created the makeup for Sarah Jessica Parker for the 2012 Met Ball using CHANEL products.
I was inspired by Sarah Jessica's dress – the dress always tells you what to do with the makeup! It reminded me of a party in Versailles, so I didn't want to do anything too harsh…we wanted her to be fresh and beautiful – garden chic!
I started by prepping her skin with CHANEL Sublimage La Creme Texture Supreme and used it on her neck as well. Sarah Jessica's skin looks gorgeous, so I used CHANEL Vitalumiere Aqua Ultra-Light Skin Perfecting Makeup SPF 15 in Beige 30 only in the places she really needed it and applied it very lightly, followed by my favorite product CHANEL Long Lasting Concealer in Beige Ivoire. I used a pink blush on her cheeks and then topped that off with Exclusive Creation Soleil Tan de Chanel Luminous Bronzing Powder in Sable Rose and applied that to the temples of her forehead.
For the eyes, I applied CHANEL Quadra Eyeshadow in Lilium. I used the minty green shade all over her eyes and then the dark shades in the crease and in the middle of the eye.
I finished the look by using CHANEL Rouge Coco Shine Sheer Lipshine in Chance, a fresh pinky shade and then I dabbed a bit of CHANEL Glossimer in Sirocco, a gorgeous beigy gold shade, in the middle of the lips for a soft pop.

You'll Like The 2009 Honda Odyssey If...
If you'd rather be driving a nice sedan but you have a family, a dog and a load of luggage to haul on vacation, the 2009 Honda Odyssey makes for a livable compromise. With all its nifty features, some of your friends may even think it's cool.
You May Not Like The 2009 Honda Odyssey If...
If you don't like the traditional minivan look, about the only choices left are Nissan's spacey Quest or the sporty Dodge Grand Caravan. Bargain shoppers put off by the high price tag should look toward newer competitors, such as the Hyundai Entourage.
What's New
The EX-L trim receives the Touring's power rear lift gate, while the optional satellite navigation system gains Bluetooth hands-free phone connectivity.
Interior Features
There are plenty of innovations worth noting inside the Odyssey, as well as a couple of surprises. Honda engineers have made the third-row seat more accessible, thanks to sliding second-row seats. The third-row seat is also split on a 60/40 bias and very easy to fold flat into the floor. The second row features power windows plus optional twin captain's chairs and a clever in-seat storage compartment (dubbed the PlusOne Seat by Honda). There are three sets of LATCH child safety seat anchors: Two on the outboard second-row seats and one in the middle third-row seat.
Exterior Features
Rather than pushing beyond the expected limits of minivan styling, the 2009 Odyssey emerges as a refined version of its former self. Honda's designers have conceived an Odyssey that is both sleeker and more sophisticated than previous generations. The Odyssey's wide stance gives it a more secure visual stance. Appealing features such as available power sliding side doors and a power rear liftgate bolster the Odyssey's desirability.
Driving Impressions
One of the goals of every minivan is to deliver a car-like driving experience. If the car in that comparison is a large sedan, the 2009 Honda Odyssey succeeds on some levels and comes close on others. With plenty of horsepower and usable torque, the Odyssey moves quickly from a stop and easily merges with traffic. Once moving, the ride is smooth and well-controlled, even if rougher roads don't go unnoticed. While few will call its performance inspiring, the Odyssey brakes and corners with a capability some may find surprisingly good for a vehicle of its proportions, and the strong engine can get you quickly back to cruising speed.
Pricing Notes
The least expensive 2009 Honda Odyssey is the LX, which has a Manufacturer's Suggested Retail Price (MSRP) of about $27,000. The EX with leather, DVD and navigation runs close to $38,000, while a Touring with navigation tops out just over the $40,000 mark. A look at the Fair Purchase Price shows the typical transaction price paid by consumers in your area, so be sure to check it out before you buy. The Odyssey's pricing may seem high, but keep in mind that over a five-year period it holds its value better than the Chrysler Town & Country, Dodge Grand Caravan, Kia Sedona, Hyundai Entourage, Nissan Quest and even the Toyota Sienna.
Notable Equipment
Every 2009 Honda Odyssey (LX, EX, EX with Leather and Touring) includes the disappearing third-row seat, in-floor storage, CD player, dual-zone air conditioning (tri-zone in EX-L and Touring), power windows, keyless entry and cruise control. Standard safety features include frontal and side airbags up front, three-row side-curtain airbags and Vehicle Stability Assist with traction control. The standard 3.5-liter VTEC engine gives way to a similar, higher-mileage i-VTEC engine with variable cylinder management (VCM) in the top two models.
Notable Options
Features available only on select trim levels or as stand-alone options include the stowable eighth seat, leather seating, power sliding doors, four-way power passenger seat, six-disc in-dash CD player, 360-watt stereo, Bluetooth hands-free communication link, memory-linked tilt-down side view mirrors (standard on Touring), more fuel-efficient i-VTEC engine with VCM, power moonroof, nine-inch rear DVD entertainment center, plus a navigation system with voice recognition and an integrated rearview camera (models without navigation display an image in the rearview mirror). Available only on the premium Touring model are a memory driver's seat, power-adjustable pedals, front and rear parking sensors and a run-flat tire system.
Favorite Features
In-Floor Storage
A carpeted panel in the floor in front of the second-row seat lifts to reveal a compartment big enough to swallow the available eighth seat. When you need the room for something else, an optional Lazy Susan makes it easy to access items that might otherwise require a reach.
Comprehensive Safety Features
From Vehicle Stability Assist with Traction Control, Electronic Brake Distribution, Anti-Lock Brakes and Tire Pressuring Monitoring (to help keep you out of trouble), to the Advanced Compatibility Engineering Body Structure, Active Front Head Restraints and a full complement of airbags (to help protect you if trouble should occur), the Odyssey offers its occupants an extremely comprehensive set of safety features.
Under the Hood
Until someone drops a V8 into a minivan, the Odyssey's 244-horsepower V6 is the most powerful engine in the class. The Odyssey's 3.5-liter V6 is a solid piece of work. Strong, quiet and fairly fuel-efficient, its performance attributes are only enhanced by its bulletproof service and repair history. On EX-L and Touring trims Honda adds its Variable Cylinder Management (VCM) which, depending upon load, deactivates some cylinders for improved fuel consumption.
3.5-liter V6
244 horsepower @ 5750 rpm (LX and EX)
244 horsepower @ 5700 rpm (EX-L and Touring)
240 lb.-ft. of torque @ 5000 rpm (LX and EX)
245 lb.-ft. of torque @ 4900 rpm (EX-L and Touring)
EPA city/highway fuel economy: 16/23 (LX and EX), 17/25 (EX-L and Touring)
Editors' Notes
Dads will tell you the best vehicle to transport the wife and kids is a big, burly SUV, but Moms know better. Despite its less-than-macho image, the minivan is still the best family transport ever invented. Large sliding side doors make for quick and easy entries and exits, while a low and level cargo floor means minimal muscle is required when loading. If a minivan is in your future, there are a number of makes to choose from, and at the top of that list is the 2009 Honda Odyssey. Renowned for its spacious interior, powerful engine, comfortable ride and exceptional safety rating, the Odyssey leaves little room for criticism. About the only deterrent to purchasing an Odyssey may be its high price and limited ability to pick and choose stand alone options.

The tapered design of conventional wells is as old as the oil and gas industry itself. And despite its refinement over all that time, it still has some fundamental limitations.
Designing a well involves detailed engineering to make sure that the progressively narrowing diameter is still sufficiently wide when it reaches the reservoir to enable economic production rates.
Unexpected encounters with unstable formations can require an additional string of steel pipe, reducing the final hole size though the reservoir and restricting the production from the well or even preventing the well from reaching the target depth.

My boss was so tough that his desk was equipped with front and side airbags. His annual performance reviews resembled notes from a psychiatrist. They bristled with observations about employee behavior – real and imagined.
My boss was so tough that his desk was equipped with front and side airbags.
His annual performance reviews resembled notes from a psychiatrist. They bristled with observations about employee behavior – real and imagined. If he liked you, he would give you a kick at the same time he gave you a raise. If he didn't like you, he would just give you a kick.
He demanded a level of loyalty that would have made Richard Nixon proud. ("I want you to stonewall it," Nixon said to his White House staff during Watergate.) But despite all my boss' outrageous excesses, he never fired anyone.
Yes, he did make what appeared at the time to be punitive transfers, like sending someone to the Fargo office from New York. Nevertheless, he adhered to a kind of military ethos: As long as the troops focused their fire on the enemy, they could stay to fight another day.
President Obama's recent firing of Gen. Stanley A. McChrystal reminds me of other bosses I have had.
One such boss would garner opinions and make decisions that he hoped would please the most people. He managed by LIFO: last in, first out. It was critical to be the last staffer to speak to him before a decision was made, because he always acted on what he had just heard. He was pleasant and encouraging, but one wondered whether he had the gravitas to arm wrestle with the suits. (In the end, no one really can beat the suits.)
The suits believed in metrics. Show them the money. You can have the greatest, most-esteemed product in the world, but if it does not sell, it won't exist for long.
The best boss I had was a player-coach. He could do my job better than I could and when he discussed work, he earned our respect.
The worst boss I had was insecure about his talents, his place in the management structure and his hair. He got more haircuts per month than some New Zealand sheep. He was a fop and a poseur and wore what best can be described as costumes. He loved flowered ties, wide, brightly colored suspenders and loafers with sporty tassels. He used all the classic business clichés, leveraging, picking low-hanging fruit, letting the trees to fall the way we wanted them to, not walking on a field filled with rakes. His synergies had synergies.
He believed in face time. You didn't have to be the first to arrive in the office but it was really good to be the last to leave. He was constantly reorganizing his staff. Every nine months there would be a shakeup and a change in one's duties and responsibilities. He called it dynamic tension. When everything is new and a challenge, people put out their best efforts, he said. Most of what I observed was confusion, paranoia, pain and suffering and angry wives and husbands.
In the end, he was let go. But like some willful neutrino he floated upward and landed a job at a prominent firm. We all wondered: How does he always seem to do that? These days when people are fired or laid off, they usually take a year to find another job and it usually is at a position that is at least two levels below the job they had.
Being a boss is difficult. Getting people to do their best work, day in, day out, is a challenge even for the best managers. No wonder most of my bosses were always stepping on rakes.

Hello lan sambutan — a very warm welcome to our expat community in Surabaya, Indonesia. Like any new experience, it's best to draw on the advice of those who've done it themselves. Moving to a new country is no different, and InterNations is a resource for expats in Surabaya to share their experiences, acting as a sounding board for those moving to the city. Whether you're in the process of relocating, or have already moved to Surabaya, InterNations offers invaluable resources and acts as a point of dialogue between expats. There are so many considerations when moving abroad, and as an InterNations member you'll find that all of them are addressed on our expat network, including, "what is the quality of education for international children?", "do I have to pay for healthcare?", or "which area of the city has the best nightlife?". All of these are typical questions asked by expats moving to Surabaya, and all can be answered by fellow expats with first-hand experience.
Attend our monthly events and activities for Surabaya expatriates to get to know like-minded expatriates in real life.
Get trustworthy advice and local insights from fellow members in our Surabaya expat forums.
Surabaya is the second-largest city in Indonesia and has played a pivotal part in the country's history, having been the center of trading in the Dutch East Indies. Whether moving to Surabaya because of work or other reasons, expats will find the city a pleasantly clean environment for the most part — it has been compared to Singapore, such is the pride it takes in its appearance. Residents themselves have been known to take to the streets in cleaning teams to keep their area pristine. Days of leisure for expats in Surabaya offer a chance to take in the city's mix of historical sites and modern complexes, while the cuisine is a cross-section of traditional Indonesian fare and dishes from China, which accounts for much of the country's expat population.
Surabaya is known for its tropical equatorial climate and with the help of your fellow expats you'll quickly adjust and settle in to your new environment. Hobbies and areas of personal interest form part of our identity, and as part of the InterNations Surabaya Community you will be able to find and meet expats with similar tastes, an essential part of making friends and feeling at home in a new country. All we ask is you respect the opinions of other InterNations members, and that you demonstrate politeness and courtesy when interacting with other members, whether online or offline. So come along to one of our large community-wide social events or meet up with fellow members in a smaller setting by joining one of groups for different hobbies and interests. If there isn't a group open yet for your favorite hobby, feel free to start your own.

I'm already coming around to permaculture being the best way to produce food AND preserve the land, especially in our rather... challenging gardening conditions. Now Hemenway has introduced me to a completely new concept within permaculture, (well new to me anyway, I'm sure some of you have been doing this for years): the Hugelkultur! Well actually it should be spelled: Hügelkultur. Now for those of you not familiar with German, this should be pronounced hoogle-cool-toor, except for the first double o you should pout your lips forward like the Librarian of Unseen University who accidentally got turned into an orang utang, leaving a small round opening between your lips and pushing your tongue forward a tad towards said opening, as if to whistle and then you activate your vocal chords rather than whistle to emit an ü sound like in Bügeleisen. What you don't know that one either?
Anyway, enough of this sillyness, I was talking about me seeing the light! Serious stuff! So you know the way you keep doing a particular thing for no better reason than not knowing any better and all of a sudden someone tells how to do this better and solve a number of other problems at the same time? Well that's a Hugelkultur for you. (You still practicing that pronunciation?). Every year we prune our various trees, most of them in winter. The larger bits of wood coming off that we cut into logs and use the following winter in our fire to heat our kitchen, given them some months to dry out some too. Some of the smaller bits are handy to get your fire going, but the majority of the twigs and little branches just end up clattering up the place. So we wait until we have a pleasant, not too dry, not too windy, not too wet, not too hot day and build a bonfire. It takes a fair bit of effeort dragging it all to one place on a given terrace not too close to other vegetation, and stand over it all day keeping it under control. And the result: tidier terraces and a small pile of woodash, which can be incorporated into the soil (and coughing neighbours, but mind you they are chain smokers anyway).
Since today what we do is, gather it all up and pile it up neatly. A few rotten bits of bigger wood, which wouldn't be much good in the fireplace are also helpful. You cover that wood with the turf you previously removed from your chosen site and having turned them upside down. Find a few more turf squares and dump them on top. If you have some other organic material, old leaves, grass cuttings, on with it. Then shovel a load of soil on top, some compost if you have some spare and hey presto! You have a Hügelkultur (no hüüügel. Got it now?). It should look somewhat like this (once mature of course):
or this:
Now that sound like more work then simply burning I hear you say, so what's the point of this. So let me tell you:
- As the wood rots it slowly releases nutrients to the soil
- At the same time it releases heat, increasing the ambient temperature and enabling you to grow things earlier in the season then normal
- The wood has an incredibble capacity to absorb water, which is then slowly released again, eliminating or at least reducing the need to water.
- It increases surface. Compared to a standard flat bed you have at least 3 times as much surface area to plant on
- It won't need digging over
Now, whilst I had some work building this thing, it will actually from now on reduce my workload. Various sources seem to have varying opinions on what size this (incidentally Hügel simply means hill) hill should be. Anything from 2 to 10 feet gets bandied about. I made my decision based on the amount of wood I happened to have handy, which resulted in dimensions of approximately 8x4x4 feet. One of the few disadvantages quoted is that the rotting wood, at least in the first year or two, will deplete the soil of nitrogen. To get around that I started with sowing a couple of nitrogen fixers, i.e. peas and lupins.
Sepp Holzer, Austrian permaculture supremo and hillside farmer recommends that if you build one of those things on a slope angle it with the direction of the waterflow. As my terraces are not so wide, I've given it a bit of a diagonal angle, roughly south-east facing. And I placed it on one of the lower terraces, where a) the micro-climate is more humid and b) it's a bit far away from the main action, so you want to have a low maintenance bed there. Unfortunately I'm still camera-less, so you are just going to have to use your imagination.
In other news, spring has arrived yesterday and we have 3 new additions to the woodland garden: Ribena, the blackcrrant, Ellie, the Elaeagns X Ebingei
...and Paddy, the strawberry tree (also known as Killarney strawberry, hence Paddy)
Obviously it's not carrying that much fruit just yet... Ellie should also be producing some tasty and delicious berries for us in the future as well as fixing the soil and adding nitrogen for the nearby apple and cherry trees as well as for Ribena.

I thought hiding my email address when placing an add would be a good thing to protect me, but it has not worked the best.
I had three members contact me using the contact seller button, that I was not able to contact. When I would reply, it would bounce back. I'm guessing they have a old email in their profile.
I think on my next adds, I'll show my email address.
With each person that contacted me, I asked for a screen name and location, so I could check they were a MOA member. This seemed to work.

Worst experience ever. Ordered on 16/08/2017 and estimated ship date was 21/08/2017, it's 06/09/2017 now and there is still no info when item will be shipped. Tried to contact pixels.com twice via contact form, no answer. Charger supposed to be gift for my father's birthday on 09/09/2017 but you managed to ruin it.

Behind UPS's Christmas Eve Snafu
Unexpected Surge in Online Orders Overwhelmed Louisville, Ky., Hub
In the earliest hours of Dec. 24, packages poured into United Parcel Service Inc.'s main air hub in Louisville, Ky. And they were piling up.
Employees responsible for sorting packages—already deep into a 100-hour week—were furiously getting them ready to be sent on to their destinations at airports around the country. But dozens of other workers responsible for loading those packages into planes to be shipped out were left standing around idle, because the unexpected glut of packages from last-minute shoppers had swamped...

Lake Mary residents sentenced in celebrity identity theft case
Kim Kardashian, Beyonce among celebrities targeted
Two Lake Mary residents who were arrested on suspicion of targeting and hacking personal information of celebrities such as Kim Kardashian, Ashton Kutcher and others were sentenced Friday.
Luis Flores, Jr., 19, and his mother, Kyah Green, 41, were arrested in August on federal charges. Flores pleaded guilty in October and has been sentenced to three and a half years in federal prison for credit card fraud and aggravated identity theft. The court also entered a money judgment for $16,802.
Green pleaded guilty to covering up Flores' crimes and was sentenced to three years of probation and ordered to pay restitution of the same amount for ATM withdrawals she took out of a bank account in which Flores had accrued more than $71,000, according to authorities.

According to court documents, Flores got the money in his account by making fraudulent wire transfers from celebrity bank accounts. The documents say he originally started out by depositing paychecks from his co-workers into his own account before getting fired. He was arrested in March 2013.
The official report from August said Flores and Green obtained the information of Kim Kardashian, her mother Kris Jenner, Paris Hilton and others.
Investigators also said that when they searched the pair's home computer, they found the personal information of first lady Michelle Obama, Vice President Joe Biden, Beyonce Knowles and more.

DUXBURY — Although surrounded by dozens of potential supporters, Gabriel Gomez kept to himself on a brisk Saturday morning last month as he went through a series of stretches.
Wearing a white campaign shirt emblazoned with his name in bold blue letters, black running shorts, dark baseball cap, and sunglasses, the 47-year-old Republican Senate hopeful slipped in earbud headphones and then, along with the others running the Lieutenant Timothy Steele Memorial 5k, took off as the starter's gun fired.
While some would argue that Gomez, a political newcomer battling long odds to fill John Kerry's US Senate seat, should spend each campaign moment talking with voters and donors, Gomez spoke to no one from the start of the race, just after 11 a.m., until his return to the finish line's yellow caution tape exactly 21:52 later.
But the former US Navy SEAL is using runs like this one — and the sweaty hugs, high fives, and out-of-breath conversations that follow — as a rather unorthodox way to bond with the electorate, especially in suburbs rich with independent and right-leaning voters.
The GOP candidate has competed in at least two races each weekend of the general election campaign, logging well over 100 miles since announcing his candidacy in February. What began as a way for the candidate to stay in shape in a grueling campaign has become the most recurring part of Gomez's public schedule.
"We did it the first time, and people just kept coming up to us, thanking him for running," said Marine Bob Tirehurst, the Gomez campaign's director of veterans affairs who has run a number of the races with Gomez, many of them for charities or fund-raisers for military families. "So he decided: Let's do one of these every weekend, every day if we can."
Road races have taken Gomez to Sutton, where he ran with Sheriff Lew Evangelidis, as well as to Hyannis for a Memorial Day race with Yarmouth Deputy Police Chief Steven Xiarhos.
At times his wife, Sarah, and their four children join Gomez in the races, bonding with other families running as a unit. Gomez has even become a forceful 5k evangelist among his campaign staff, goading many of them into joining him on the runs.
"Are you running tomorrow?" one campaign staff member asked another as they waited for Gomez to retrieve a bottle of water after a Saturday morning race. "Yeah, I guess," the second responded. "I don't think he's letting me get out of it."
In some ways, the races are reflective of Gomez's larger campaign strategy, as they are rife with avid runners and military veterans with whom he can relate.
"Marines like me, other former SEALS, ROTC members, there are always tons of military families out at these," Tirehurst said after the two completed a Saturday morning 5k in Winchester. "It's a great way to get him out in front of people who are going to love him."
After each race, Gomez pauses to catch his breath before making his way through the steady stream of runners finishing, congratulating them on their run and chatting about running playlists, stretches that can prevent cramps, and, of course, the upcoming election.
Gomez, who admits that he is far from a "smooth-talking politican," notes that his conversations flow more naturally when he is with other runners and veterans.
"They can see that this is who I really am and respect that I am out here running with them," the candidate said.
In a state known for loving its sports and its politics, political candidates have long showcased their athletic endeavors as part of their campaigns. The longtime senator Gomez hopes to replace, Secretary of State John Kerry, is an avid cyclist who has participated in the Pan-Mass Challenge. And the GOP long shot whose unlikely victory Gomez hopes to replicate, former senator Scott Brown, made his frequent triathlons a visible part of his campaign.
Gomez first made the road races an almost weekly part of his campaign schedule early in the primary, when he was an unknown political entity.
By April, he had completed more than a half-dozen races, including the Andover Run for the Troops, which doubled as a photo-op with Brown, who was also running.
Next, Gomez announced he was running the Boston Marathon, his fifth marathon, which he completed in 4 hours and 8 minutes, crossing the yellow finish line on Boylston Street about 50 minutes before the bombs went off.
The Gomez campaign, which has criticized Democratic opponent Edward J. Markey for not spending enough time on the stump, points to Gomez's frequent races as the type of grass-roots, retail campaigning that gives them a shot in a state where registered Democrats outnumber registered Republicans 3 to 1.
"You could run a 5k with Ed Markey, too," Gomez told a reporter who offered to run along with the candidate in a race. "But you'd have to find him first."
Gomez, once a relatively unpolished campaigner, has become increasingly comfortable in one-on-one voter interactions, hoping to replicate the personability often credited in part with propelling Brown to his unlikely 2010 Senate victory.
And those similarities could not have been more apparent in Duxbury, where not five minutes went by without a fellow runner bringing up that other Republican who ran for the Senate, largely on the back of a vibrant personality and retail campaigning.
"How about you go over and take a picture with Mr. Gomez, honey?" said Sean Varano, one of the road race's organizers, beckoning his reluctant young daughter to pose in front of his iPhone camera.
But the shy girl was not sure what to make of the sweaty Senate candidate standing before her with a smile: "Who is he?" she asked softly.
"Well you remember Scott Brown, how he was a senator?" her father said, prompting a slight nod. "Well, Mr. Gomez is going to be a senator, too."
And with that, she was convinced, skipping over to where a smiling Gomez — by now a pro at the post-race photo routine — was waiting.
The third and final debate of the US Senate special election campaign will take place Tuesday night at the WGBH studios in Boston. Sponsored by the Boston Media Consortium, the debate will run from 7 to 8 p.m. and be aired on WGBH, NECN, WCVB-TV, WHDH-TV, WGBH Radio, WBUR Radio, and Bloomberg Radio.

Prelude on Ash GroveDouglas E. Wagner - Lorenz Corporation
Click to review
A delightful dialog between handbells (or handchimes) and organ is the highlight of this beloved hymn tune, frequently heard during the Thanksgiving season. After a brief original introduction played on bells, the organ part enters and is the first to introduce the main theme before giving it away. Available for either 2-3 octaves or 4-5 octaves, the bell parts are remarkably accessible and enjoyable to play, and the crisp, lively tempo makes it useful for any part of the service.

GXC: "Near is the social networking app on the PS Vita that allows you to check in to real life locations and pick-up and or leave gifts for other gamers to find and use in their games. You can also locate and connect with your PlayStation Network friends and other gamers nearby.
How many people have their Vita connected online near you?"
As low as 25, as high as about 60. Usually, though, from 30-45 or so.
Apparently there are ~80 people with Vitas within a 5mi radius of my home. I suppose that's not that bad for a 'struggling' handheld considering I am in a relatively rural area of SE Louisiana...
Near is a really bad social network and doesn't work nearly as well as Nintendo's Streetpass

Bill Lee, 80, And Going Strong
For the last 49 years, Mr. Lee has been a proud resident of Fort Greene, Brooklyn. During this time, he composed the original scores for Spike Lee's films Do the Right Thing, School Daze, She's Gotta Have It, and Mo' Better Blues
[Entertainment: Music]
In celebration of his 80th birthday, one of New York's most prolific living jazz legends, Bill Lee – who is also the father of filmmaker Spike Lee – was honored with a lifetime achievement award at City Hall "for his tremendous contributions to the cultural life of our nation."
As Council Member Letitia James explained, William James Edwards Lee III – affectionately known as "Bill" Lee – was born on July 23, 1928 in Snow Hill, Alabama. His mother, Alberta G. Lee, a concert pianist, and his father, Arnold W. Lee, also a musician, instilled in him a passion and skill for music that has been in the family for generations.
After finishing high school, Mr. Lee attended Morehouse College in Atlanta, where he studied with another great musician, Mr. Willis Laurence James. Lee then moved to Chicago and began playing bass violin with countless musicians, including Chris Anderson, Johnny Griffin, John Gilmore, Gene Ammons and Betty Carter.
In 1959, Mr. Lee moved to New York City, where he began working with folk musicians like Josh White and Odetta, which led to important introductions for his musical and theatrical writings.
For the last 49 years, Mr. Lee has been a proud resident of Fort Greene, Brooklyn. During this time, he composed the original scores for Spike Lee's films Do the Right Thing, School Daze, She's Gotta Have It, and Mo' Better Blues. He also wrote 11 folk-jazz operas, movie scores and more while cementing his reputation as one of the country's greatest living jazz legends. He recorded with Billy Wallace, Frank Strozier, Bob Dylan, Aretha Franklin, Pete Seegar, Chris Anderson, Johnny Griffin, Chad Mitchell, Ray Bryant and Judy Collins, to name only a few. Furthermore, he wrote for Max Roach, Richard Davis and Booker Little and also appeared with other icons like Billie Holiday, Dinah Washington, Dizzy Gillespie, Clifford Brown, Duke Ellington and Billy Strayhorn. Mr. Lee is also the founder of the New York Bass Violin Choir and a member of the Mo' Better Blues Quartet. He continues to mentor up-and-coming musicians.
As Bill Lee is always eager to make clear, despite his extraordinary musical contributions, he is even prouder of his family. With his wife, Jackie, now deceased, he has five children: Spike, Chris, David, Joie and Cinqué. Mr. Lee and his present wife, Susan, are the parents of Arnold VI, who is now a senior at the world-renowned Oberlin College Conservatory of Music.
"Whether recording work with other musicians, composing the scores for many of his son's films, or performing with other giants of jazz, Mr. Lee has enriched us all with his presence," the proclamation states. "He has deepened everyone's love for jazz and promoted harmony throughout our City."
In accepting the proclamation, Mr. Lee told the gathering that he was "honored to be honored." He said, too, that while, at age 80, he has slowed down, he is still hard at work making new music.

DANVILLE, Ky. – Centre College (11-10; 9-2 SAA) made a free throw with one second remaining in regulation and then outscored Birmingham-Southern (10-12; 5-6SAA) 14-8 in overtime to earn a 75-69 Southern Athletic Association win on Friday at Alumni Gym.
Centre took a 40-28 lead with 15:33 left in the second half only to see the Panthers fight back to cut the deficit to one on an Elizabeth Bromirski three with 2:39 left.
Trailing 60-59, Alex Adams, who led BSC with a career-high 28 points and eight rebounds, made a pair of free throws to give Birmingham-Southern a 61-60 lead with nine seconds left in the second half. Centre missed a layup with two second left but a foul was called on the rebound where Chelsea Benham made to force overtime.
Centre used a 10-2 run in overtime to take a 71-63 lead with 1:01 remaining and never let BSC get any closer than four points the rest of the way. The Colonels went 3-for-3 from the floor and hit 9-of-12 free throws in the extra session.
BSC shot 57 percent in the second half to erase a 30-25 halftime deficit and a 12-point second half deficit. The Panthers made 12-of-21 shots in the half and went 4-of-6 from 3-point range.
Caroline King followed Adams with 13 points and seven rebounds for the Panthers. Bromirski followed with 10 points and five rebounds. Melanie Short pitched in seven points and five boards while Kelsey Brown added six points.
Page Baechle had a game-high 17 points and 11 rebounds as the only Centre player in double figures.

Expert Reviews
2007 Nissan Frontier
It's difficult to imagine a mid-size pickup that's more like a full-size pickup than the Nissan Frontier. The Frontier shares much of its architecture with the full-size Nissan Titan. A powerful 4.0-liter V6 comes on all but the base model. Rated at 261 horsepower and 281 pound-feet of torque, Frontier's V6 tops any straight-5 or V6 the competition has to offer, and rivals the output of the Dodge Dakota's optional V8. Pair this with its strong chassis, and the Frontier offers up to 6500 pounds of towing capacity and a maximum payload of over 1500 pounds. Yet it's still maneuverable and easy to park.
New for '07 is a Crew Cab Long Bed, carrying the same 73.3-inch bed as the King Cab. (The standard Crew Cab bed measures just short of five feet, at 59.5 inches.) King Cabs come with two forward-facing rear seats; Crew Cabs feature a roomy passenger compartment with amenities much like those you'd expect in a sport-utility vehicle. Frontier is available in two-wheel drive or four-wheel drive, and in King Cab or Crew Cab configurations.
Additional changes for '07 include a passenger-side seat-belt reminder light and new MP3 input jack for the optional six-CD changer. V6 models now run cleaner than before, advancing from Low Emissions (LEV2 LEV) to Ultra Low Emissions (LEV 2 ULEV) status. Option packages have been revised, and new packages debut.
The Nismo version (Nissan Motorsports) features special off-road shock absorbers and tires, underbody component-protecting skid plates and an optional active traction system with technologies such as Hill Descent Control and Hill Start Assist.

Nissan Frontier XE ($16,050); Frontier SE 2WD King Cab ($18,950); SE 4WD King Cab ($21,650); SE 2WD Crew Cab ($20,800); SE 4WD Crew Cab ($23,500); SE 2WD Crew Cab Long Bed ($21,600); SE 4WD Crew Cab Long Bed ($24,300); Frontier LE 2WD King Cab ($22,900); LE 4WD King Cab ($25,600); LE 2WD Crew Cab ($24,600); LE 4WD Crew Cab ($27,250); LE 2WD Crew Cab Long Bed ($25,100); LE 4WD Crew Cab Long Bed ($27,500); Frontier Nismo 2WD King Cab automatic ($22,600); Nismo 4WD King Cab manual ($24,250); Nismo 4WD King Cab automatic ($25,300); Nismo 2WD Crew Cab automatic ($24,650); Nismo 4WD Crew Cab automatic ($27,350)
Walk AroundThe Nissan Frontier has a bold, aggressive stance, just like its big brother, the full-size Nissan Titan, though in less intimidating dimensions. The Frontier's wheelbase is more than a foot shorter than the Titan's but its overall length is some two feet shorter. This means the Frontier's wheels are closer to its corners, enhancing not only its stance on the road but its clearance for dealing with obstacles while away from pavement.
Frontier uses a bold grille design noticed by other drivers as it emerges and enlarges in their rear-view mirrors. Body-colored steel fender flares contribute to the Frontier's presence.
All Frontiers have four-door access to their passenger compartments. King Cabs have rear-hinged auxiliary doors while Crew Cabs have four forward-hinged doors much like those on a sedan or sport-utility vehicle. (There is no regular cab version.)
Frontier cargo beds are 18 inches deep and 44.4 inches wide between the inner fenders of the rear wheels, as well as 58.8 inches wide at the tailgate and 61.4 inches wide between the tops of the bed rails. Beds are 73.3 inches long on King Cabs and Long Bed Crew Cabs; 59.5 inches long on standard Crew Cabs. All Frontiers have tailgates equipped with a door-style lock.
A spray-on bed liner and Nissan's Utili-Track cargo security system come factory-installed on Crew Cab and LE King Cab models; these features on optional on Nismo King Cabs. Utili-Track includes special C-section rails: two in the bed floor, one along each top inner edge of the bed side rails, and one in the top of the bed header panel. Sliding cleats can be locked into position within the rails to secure a variety of cargo shapes, sizes and configurations. It's a great system and Nissan offers accessories that lock into it.
InteriorThe Nissan Frontier interior was designed to be as versatile as its cargo bed. Climbing in is aided by grab handles on either side of the interior windshield support (A-pillar), with an additional grab handle in the interior roof just above the passenger-side door.
The front seats are comfortable yet supportive. The driver grasps a nicely sized steering wheel with a rim that has a tab-like enlargement on each side, right where you want to rest your thumbs to maintain a proper 9 and 3 o'clock driving position. The gauge array is large and complete, and brightened by satin-chrome outlines around the dials and air vents. Controls for heating and ventilation systems have large knobs that are easy to find and to use. Similarly, the knob for switching between 2WD, 4WD, and low-range 4WD is easily accessible.
Defroster vents on the A-pillars are designed to quickly clear side windows in winter or humid weather. Sun visors have extenders to help cover the full width of the side windows. A deep dotted matrix behind the interior rear-view mirror helps protect the driver's eyes when driving into the sun.
A covered storage tray sits on top of the center part of the dashboard. The Frontier has a pair of glove boxes, with additional storage in the door pockets and center console. Three power outlets are provided. Cup holders have removable inserts so they can handle large beverage containers.
Passengers riding in the back seat of the Crew Cab shouldn't be complaining about being cramped, not with 33.6 inches of legroom. Adults riding in the two forward-facing rear seats in the King Cab might not be eager for a long drive, but still have more than two feet to stretch their legs.
Entry into the rear seat is aided by grab handles built into both B-pillars (the vertical pillar alongside the front seat backs). Rear-seat passengers in all Frontiers have access to a pair of cup holders. The windows in the rear doors of Frontier Crew Cabs power down all the way.
Storage containers are built into the nearly flat rear floor beneath the rear seats in both cab styles, and the seat bottoms can be flipped up to provide additional cargo space.
Driving ImpressionsThe Nissan Frontier is built on the company's F-Alpha platform, which is shared with the Titan, Armada, Pathfinder, and Xterra. This F-Alpha architecture gives the Frontier a solid foundation that can be tuned for hauling cargo, traversing rough trails and for providing a comfortable ride around town or at expressway speeds. Nissan builds the tough F-Alpha frame in various lengths for these different models, and deliberately kept Frontier short enough to fit in a standard garage.
The Nismo off-road model we drove seemed as capable at highway speeds as when we splashed through nearly two feet of creek water rushing across Texas ranch roads. The Nismo's trail capabilities include a 31.5-degree approach angle.
The optional Traction-Package technologies further enhance the Nismo Frontier's worthiness when off the beaten trail. Hill Descent Control walks the vehicle down steep descents. Hill Start Assist holds your position when you lift your foot off the brake while heading uphill. Limited-slip traction control helps redirect engine torque to the non-slipping drive wheels on low traction surfaces. It operates on the rear wheels on 2WD Nismo models and on all four wheels on 4WD Nismos.
Vehicle Dynamic Control (optional on LE and Nismo) can help the driver avoid accidents. It's set up to allow a little more sideslip than some electronic stability control systems, and we prefer this approach. Similar electronic stability control systems from other manufacturers often intervene too quickly to suit advanced drivers, but Nissan's VDC reminds us of the system in Porsches, effectively helping the driver maintain control without feeling it has taken over.
The speed-sensitive rack-and-pinion steering provides good feedback. The Frontier was stable and sure even when driven aggressively around curves. We found the brakes effective. The four-wheel disc brakes use big brake rotors for efficient cooling in repeated hard use.
The Frontier's 4.0-liter V6 engine is rated at 261 horsepower at 5600 rpm, which makes it the most powerful V6 in the mid-size pickup class. It provides 19 more horsepower than the largest engine available in the Chevrolet Colorado, 25 more horsepower (and while using regular fuel) than the V6 in the Toyota Tacoma, and as much horsepower as even the strongest V8 available in the Dodge Dakota. (The Dakota V8s develop more torque, however, important if you plan to pull a trailer.)
Nissan's six-speed manual and five-speed automatic transmissions are well-matched to the V6 engine, allowing the driver to exercise all of that power.
The Frontier XE's 2.5-liter four-cylinder engine generates 152 horsepower, which is certainly adequate. In fact, it's 84 percent of the power produced by the 3.3-liter V6 available in the previous-generation Frontier.
Built on the same mechanical platform as Nissan's full-size Titan, the mid-size Frontier boasts the most powerful V6 engine in its class, useful innovations such as the Utili-Track cargo securing system and spray-in bedliner, a comfortable cab and attractive styling. We think it's one of the best trucks in this class, sharing that mantle with the Toyota Tacoma.

U.S. delays F-16s for Egypt as el-Sissi calls for protests against 'terrorism'
Egypt's tense political situation appeared likely to worsen as the head of the country's military called Wednesday for Egyptians to demonstrate Friday against terrorism, in what many feared was a green light for violence against supporters of deposed President Mohammed Morsi.
Hours after the speech by Gen. Abdel-Fattah el-Sissi, whose titles include deputy prime minister, defense minister and the chairman of the Supreme Council of the Armed Forces and who is clearly Egypt's strongman, the Obama administration took its first punitive steps against the Egyptian military, announcing that it had delayed the delivery of four F-16 fighter jets to Egypt's air force.
Pentagon spokesman George Little said the United States no longer believes it is "appropriate to move forward with the delivery," though he did not cite a specific reason for the delay. Defense Secretary Chuck Hagel delivered the news personally to el-Sissi, Little said.
El-Sissi told a military graduation ceremony in Alexandria that a public outpouring on Friday would give the army a mandate to fight terrorists and combat violence. The military recently has used "terrorists" and "violence" to describe Morsi supporters and their activities.
Thousands of Morsi supporters have been demonstrating for Morsi's return to office since he was toppled July 3, including staging a sit-in near the headquarters of the Republican Guard, the elite military unit that many Morsi partisans believe is holding the deposed president. With so many Morsi supporters on the street, there are fears that the mandate el-Sissi is seeking is one that would allow the military to confront the protesters.
Gunfire from the military killed more than 50 Morsi supporters outside the Republican Guard headquarters on July 8, and at least 100 people have died since in violence.
El-Sissi's speech was immediately seconded by a spokesman for the country's civilian president, Adly Mansour, according to state media, which quoted Ahmed al Meslemani as saying that "Egypt will not be a second Syria, and those who push in that direction are traitors."
"I've never asked you for anything, but I want you to show the world that Egyptians have a free will," said el-Sissi.
The speech drew a variety of reactions, demonstrating how polarized Egypt has become in the weeks since Morsi was forced from office. Within hours of his speech, a car exploded in the northern Sinai city of Arish, a hotbed of Islamists, killing two soldiers and three militants.
Many Egyptians have become increasingly frustrated with pro-Morsi demonstrations, which have snarled traffic, led to bursts of violence, and created an atmosphere of uncertainty, and they voiced support for el-Sissi's announcement.
Analysts here also interpreted the speech as an effort by el-Sissi to demonstrate that the military's toppling of Morsi, the country's first democratically elected president, was a response to popular sentiment and not a coup d'etat.
"In normal circumstances there is no need for a mandate from the people," said political analyst Diaa Rashwan. But "if they take any action without the people's mandate, then that will prove that it is a coup."
The sit-in staged by Morsi supporters has become "a national security issue which is threatening all state institutions," said Eman el-Mahdy, a spokeswoman for Tamarod, one of the groups that backed el-Sissi's move against Morsi. She said that if people turn out to support the military, "no one will" call the military's action against Morsi a coup.
Ahmed Maher, the head of the April 6 Youth Movement, which was instrumental in the demonstrations that led to the resignation of Hosni Mubarak but was opposed to the way the military removed Morsi, said he was befuddled by why the military needs a public mandate to do its job.
The "army doesn't need a mandate to counter terrorism unless they are aiming for something big," Maher said. "Their role is to secure the country."
In his speech, el-Sissi also defended removing Morsi. He said the deposed president went back on promises of national reconciliation and instead told him he intended to give a defiant speech.
"We didn't betray; we gave advice and offered assistance," el-Sissi said, adding that he had warned the president that Morsi's religious supporters "would eventually misunderstand Egyptians who oppose them and will turn the situation into a struggle for God."
Members of the Muslim Brotherhood, the secretive Islamist organization through which Morsi ascended to the presidency, vowed to keep protesting and said the military was trying to stoke violence.
El-Sissi's speech "is a call for confrontation if it is not a call for a civil war," Brotherhood spokesman Gehad el Haddad said. "We are prepared to die."
Either way, the nation remained anxious about what would happen Friday, when both pro- and anti-Morsi partisans have scheduled demonstrations.

Vaas and Buck are two of the most savage, brutal characters you'll meet in Far Cry 3. They're prone to stabbing, and setting tigers to feast on your limbs.
But here's the thing about being this particular brand of crazy: it's usually followed by a heavy dose of delusion. Case in point: "We're not the savages. We are the shepherds." Ooookay my friend. A little too many drugs there. Cause you know I'm going to shoot you a lot — probably, hopefully to death — on November 29th, when the game comes out for Xbox 360, PS3 and PC.

June 22, 2008-Quiet Day In Bangkok
Sathorn Road
On a recent weekend Judy had to work both days and I lazed around the apartment. She decided to take a break from her work assignment on Saturday afternoon and we headed out onto the streets of our Bangkok neighborhood just to get out of the house.
We did some shopping in an inner city supermarket and stopped at the local bank branch to file some papers and just wandered around with the Nikon taking a few photos. But I was feeling a bit low on energy after a whole day on the couch and even photography seemed like too much work, so we found an Irish pub and had a pint while watching the end of a rugby match.
Eventually we found our way back home, which, for now, is a high rise apartment in the city. A bit of a change for a couple of sailors but we like it well enough.

Colorado says goodbye to "unforgettable" craft beer institution Danny Williams
NOTE: This story was written by Mitchell Byars of the Boulder Daily Camera.
Danny Williams, who was the cellar master for the Great American Beer Festival for more than a decade and was well known in the Colorado beer industry, died Monday night at his home at the age of 52 after a battle with cancer, according to family friends.
From his job handling almost 4,000 brews for the Great American Beer Festival to the gold mine he converted into a beer cellar at his Sunshine Canyon home, Williams was legendary in the Colorado beer industry.
"He was pretty unforgettable," said friend Mike Bryant. "Anyone that met him never forgot him. He was a good, genuine person who wanted to help everybody."
Rueben Verplank, the owner of Rueben's Burger Bistro, said Williams was one of the most likeable people he knew.
"Picture in your head the guy you would like to sit down and have a beer with, and that was Danny," Verplank said. "He was friendly, outgoing and he loved everybody. No one was more fun to be around."

There's a candid just caught feeling here. I like that. I think this could have converted well in to B&W and with a bit of levels contrast play became quite noir, as if you've spied someone waiting outside.

SAN FRANCISCO — Bruce Bochy gave as encouraging a report on Marco Scutaro as he's given all year before Thursday's game. Ten days into a 20-day rehab that will likely determine his fate for the rest of the season, Bochy was asked if he has been hearing news that the veteran second baseman is finally starting to make real progress overcoming his cranky back.
"I am, which is good news," Bochy said. "We'll see how he gets through it today (a five-inning stint, his first back-to-back). This will be a big test. But if all goes well, the next couple of days we could see him at (Triple-A) Fresno.
Asked if he expects Scutaro to be with the club at the end of the 20-day rehab stint, the manager said, "I'm hopeful. I think you have to have that. Without that, you don't have anything. But the fact that's he going back to back, and got a couple of hits including a double yesterday, the back must be feeling pretty good."
What would Scutaro's return mean?
"That would be awesome news," Bochy said. "If it's not where he can go out there every day, and it's just 2-3 times a week, I think that works. I think he would improve our bench. He has a short swing, a swing that'll work as a pinch-hitter. He has experience, which will help the other guys, too. He's a popular guy in the clubhouse, too. I think the guys would like to have him around here."

**It's true, it's true – look, look!**
Watched the final commercial several times and we've spied me in this VERY fast-paced commercial at least 4-times already. YAY – I didn't wind-up on the editing floor! #WhompWhomp
Whatta day it was – I watched some very entertaining, creative, talented & professional crew-of-brothers film. Tis fascinating how all of those takes came together as they did to birth this commercial masterpiece – baffling, like magic.
Okay, logistics – as I'm sure you're dying to know. *w* The commercial will be airing shortly. Sadly, I do not know as to which channels it will be on nor the exact air date, However, with us being in winter attire in the commercial factored with Christmastime decor already in stores, I think I'd be safe to assume it'll be airing on TVs nationwide VERY soon so be sure to keep-on the look-out!
I want to, once again, express how thankful and honored I was to be chosen to partake in the filming. Not only did I get to 'work my craft', but I met a lot of nice people. It was most definitely an adventure-of-a-day.
And, a VERY special thank you out to … The Herbert Brothers, zappos.com, and Patty Bamber whose filming, awesome customer service and talented photography gave me a memory I shall never forget! I'd be humbled to work beside any of you again – truly humbled.
Hugs …
'ZAPPOS' COMMERCIAL: (I appear at the: 00:05, 00:07, and 00:09 – 00:11 marks)

The holidays are upon us. Often this time of year inspires weeks of personal reflection and heartfelt nostalgia while simultaneously evoking a need to scribble out a long list of resolutions. The top of my list for 2013? A juicing cleanse to kick off a healthy new year! But who am I kidding? Now is not the time to start said cleanse- there is still a whole week left in 2012 to indulge in sugar-toned gluttony and deep-fried tastiness!
Here is a recipe from Coronado-based author Jill O'Connor to get you through the holidays with a bit of chocolatey, liquor-laced cheer!
Grown-Up S'mores from Sticky, Chewy, Messy, Gooey by Jill O'Connor
Serves: Makes 15 S'mores
For the chocolate filling: 8 large egg yolks 1-½ cups confectioners sugar sifted 2 tablespoons white crème de cacao 2 tablespoons Kahlua 2 teaspoons Cognac 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract 1/8 teaspoon salt 1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter 2 tablespoons Dutch-Processed cocoa power 12 ounces semisweet or bittersweet chocolate, finely chopped 1 ½ cups heavy cream, whipped to soft peaks
For the marshmallow fluff meringue: 3 Large egg whites Pinch of Salt Pinch of cream of tartar ¼ teaspoon pure vanilla extract 1 cup of marshmallow fluff
For the graham cracker crust: 3 cups crushed graham cracker crumbs ½ cup (1stick) unsalted butter, melted 1 tablespoon granulated sugar
Preheat the oven to 350°F.
To make the crust: Combine the graham cracker crumbs with the melted butter and granulated sugar until will combined. Press into the bottom of a 9-by-13-inch metal baking pan. Bake the crest until starts to brown and become crisp, about 10 minutes. Transfer to a wire rack and let cool completely.
To make the filling: Using an electric mixer, beat the egg yolks and confectioners' sugar together in a large bowl until they are thick and the color of butter. Beat in the Cognac, crème de cacao, Kahlúa, vanilla, and salt.
Melt the butter in a medium saucepan over low heat and whisk in cocoa powder until smooth. Remove the pan from the heat, add the chocolate, and stir until the chocolate is melted and the mixture is smooth. Let cool slightly, then gradually beat into the egg mixture.
Fold the softly beaten heavy cream into the chocolate mixture just until combined. Spoon the chocolate cream over the graham cracker curst, smoothing it evenly with a spatula. Cover the pan with plastic wrap and refrigerate until very firm, at least 4 hours or up to overnight.
When ready to serve, make the meringue: Using an electric mixer set at low speed, beat the egg whites until foamy. Add the salt and cream of tartar and beat at medium speed until soft peaks form. Beat in the vanilla. Add the marshmallow Fluff to the egg whites a little at a time, beating constantly until stiff peaks form.
Carefully cut the S'mores into 15 large squares. Place each S'mores on a dessert plate. Top each with ½ cup of the meringue in a large dollop. Use a small kitchen torch to carefully burnish the meringue until tipped with golden brown. Serve immediately.
