Four fourth graders gave the selectmen a break from their paperwork on Sept. 14, when they brought to Town Hall four of the 400 pumpkins grown on town land near Moharimet School.
Speaking for the 385 Moharimet School students, Melanie Banafato thanked the selectmen for allowing the school to have the garden. She was supported by three other fourth graders: Nico LePore, Lindsey Stenmack, and Miles Goldberg, as well as kindergartener Andrew McEwan.
Moharimet School Principal Dennis Harrington added a note of appreciation "for all Madbury's done for this school." Food Service Coordinator Doris Demers promised that there would be pumpkin soup.
Parents/gardeners Karen Niland and Rebecca McEwan stressed that the pumpkiin garden is a community endeavor, pointing out that the watering was made simpler because Shaler McReel loaned a soaking hose.
Four pumpkins were left to decorate the Town Hall. The annual Pumpkin Walk will take place on October 25.
Business items taken up by the selectmen on Sept. 14 included appointing Gregory Bisson as a part-time police officer. Jay Moriarty reported that Artisan Electric of Madbury will be replacing the electrical panel at the library and that some trees on Mast Road near the Proulx garage will be removed since they could be a hazard in a storm.
It was voted to offer the part-time Building Inspector's job to Justin Corrow. The selectmen noted that they had received applications from seven "qualified candidates" for this job. Each applicant was interviewed.
Paving of the right-of-way to the Old Stage Campground will take place soon, and there will be some new paint applied to the front of the Town Hall this fall.
According to Town Clerk Kitty Cornwell, there are 1,271 registered voters in town. On Sept. 11, only 363 cast ballots: 216 Democrats and 147 Republicans. Of particular interest is the fact that State Representative Janet Wall (Madbury) received the greatest number of votes cast in the District 6 House race.
District 6 encompasses Durham and Madbury and will have five representatives. The other four on the Democratic ticket are Durham residents. Only two Republicans were on the ballot, hence both will be on the Nov. 6 ballot. One of these is David Childs of Madbury.
The Town Clerk reported that 45 voters didn't have a photo ID; three expressed opposition to the new ID law which will be enforced aafter Nov. 1. Cornwell said that it is possible to obtain a free ID from the state and that vouchers for IDs will be available from her office after Oct. 1.
Also available at Town Hall is an "Explanatory Document" relative to the new voter ID law, which lists eight types of IDs which will be accepted by the ballot clerks. This new law becomes effective Nov. 1, but any voter who does not present an approved photo ID on Nov. 6 will be allowed to vote after executing a "challenged voter affidavit."
Voting hours on Nov. 6 will be from 7 a.m. to 7 p.m.
Fall activities at the Madbury Public Library are under way. September 24 (tomorrow) will be busy with the following:
(1) Story-time for pre-schoolers at 10:30 a.m.
(2) Daytime Book Group at 2 p.m. (October's book: "Home" by Toni Morrison)
(3) McGregor Emergency EMS at 6 p.m. for CPR session
(4) Quilters at 6 p.m.
Rosa, a Registered Reading Dog, will visit the library on the first Monday of each month (October, November, December) from 3 to 5 p.m. Any youngster may sign up now for a reserved 20-minute session of reading to Rosa.
The Evening Book Group is reading "Music and Science" by Rose Tremain. They meet at 7 p.m. on the first Monday monthly and welcome new members. The current book is available at the library.
While story-times for preschoolers are scheduled for Mondays and Thursdays at 10:30 a.m., the story-time for this week on Thursday, Sept. 27, has been cancelled.
The Friends of Madbury Library have scheduled Book Sales for Nov. 3 and Nov. 6.
Pumpkin harvest big success for Moharimet School

We don't often talk about ourselves here on Hatch, because this blog really isn't about us – it's about modern design and about you — our awesome customers. But if we're being honest (and we're in the habit of doing so) our team here at Design Public is amazing with a capital A — so we thought it might be nice to highlight them this holiday season!
So why is our team so awesome? Well, they love our customers. They love our designers. They love modern design. Most of all, they are passionate about the intersection of those three and it shows in their work every single day.
Of course, when you see amazing design day in and day out like we do, it's almost impossible not to develop a few favorites. So, this holiday, we thought that we'd bring your our staff's top picks for the holiday season! Hopefully you'll find some inspiration for the design buff, the love of your life, or even that hard-to-shop for person on your list.

Kirk Hanefeld is thrilled to be making a return trip to a place where he made a bit of history in 2011, and hoping he can make a lot more history in 2012.
The PGA Director of Instruction at Renaissance Golf Club in Haverhill, Mass., is seeking to become the first three-time winner of the Southworth Senior PGA Professional National Championship presented by Mercedes-Benz USA.
The Championship returns to Creighton Farms in Aldie, Va., and River Creek Club in Leesburg, Va., on Oct. 11–14, for a second consecutive year.
Hanefeld, who also won the title in 2008, will try and separate himself from four others; Mike San Filippo of Hobe Sound, Fla. (2002, '05), Ed Sabo of Tequesta, Fla. (2000, '01) Roger Kennedy of Pompano Beach, Fla. (1992, 1994) and Tom Joyce of Huntington, N.Y. (1990, '91), who have each won twice.
"My game is really starting to round into shape and I hope I can play well enough to have a chance at a third title," says Hanefeld, who lives in Acton. "It's going to be fun to get back out and compete in this event with some great players."
Last year, he executed the shot he needed for a 72nd-hole birdie, holding off Ken Martin of Wellington, Fla., to win the 2011 Southworth Senior PGA Professional National Championship.
Hanefeld had not surrendered the lead all week until the 69th hole, capping off an erratic round with a 96-yard wedge approach at 18, which landed just past the flagstick and spun back to within 18 inches of the cup. His birdie putt was enough to hold off Martin, who had briefly held a two-stroke margin before bogeys on his final two holes.
"I had the lead most of the Championship but had a bad stretch and almost gave it all up," says Hanefeld. "It ended up being pretty back and forth between Ken and I, but I was able to hit a great shot at the end to win it. This is a crazy game."
In his three appearances in the Championship, Hanefeld has not finished worse than a tie for 23rd.
"Golf's pretty funny. It just seems like in October, when this Championship is held each year, is when I am playing my best," says Hanefeld. "It's really all about timing for me."
Hanefeld will be joined by 10 past Champions in the national championship field: Bill Britton (2009) of Rumson, N.J.; Jeff Coston (2006) of Blaine, Wash.; Tom Joyce (1990, '91) of Huntington, N.Y.; Bill Loeffler (2007) of Castle Rock, Colo.; Ed Sabo (2000, '01) of Tequesta, Fla.; Pete Oakley (1999) of Palm City, Fla.; Mike San Filippo (2002, '05) of Hobe Sound, Fla.; Robert Thompson (2010) of Huntsville, Texas; Jeff Thomsen (2003) of Boise, Idaho; and Jim White (2004) of Lincoln, Neb.
The 264-player field features PGA Professionals at least 50 years of age, as of the Championship, who have qualified through one of the 41 PGA Sections.
The low 35 finishers will qualify for the 2013 Senior PGA Championship presented by KitchenAid, at Bellerive Country Club in St. Louis, Mo.
The top eight finishers, including ties, will receive exemptions into the 2013 Senior PGA Professional National Championship.
In addition, the top five finishers will be exempt into the Champions Tour National Finals at TPC Eagle Trace in Coral Springs, Fla., provided they have submitted an entry by the entry deadline.

IntroductionTo get the perfect picture, Claudio Gotsch has been known to spend hours hiding in a camouflage tent. "The animals must come to me, not the other way around", explains the photographer from Switzerland's Engadin Valley. He portrays the region's diverse fauna in expressive pictures that reflect his reverence for nature. Particularly impressive are his breathtakingly intense black & white shots. They open our eyes to the wildlife of the Alps, showing us an animal kingdom worth preserving.
Gotsch's calming landscapes are also a testament to the idyllic and yet imposing mountains of his homeland. The monumental mountain panoramas leave us longing to become one with nature. We can almost smell the fresh mountain air.
A passion for photography has followed Gotsch since his early childhood. "It is amazing what you discover when you open your eyes to the natural world", says the artist. His gentle, thoughtful approach presents a stark contrast to the fast-paced living of today.Bio

Either the feds are up to their old tricks again or some of the individuals behind the "crash the tea party" campaign are taking things too far – Muskogee Tea Party leader Jamison Faught received a call yesterday from a man who tried to get him to agree to shooting the President, a clear attempt at entrapment as anarchists prepare to stage false flags at today's tax rallies in an effort to frame the Tea Party movement as violent racists.
"Law-abiding Tea Partiers are apparently being infiltrated and made to look extreme," writes Andrew W. Griffin of the Oklahoma Watchdog. "Growing evidence points to provocateurs that bring to mind the protests of the Vietnam War era and COINTELPRO."
As we have been tracking, with the establishment media drooling at the prospect of mayhem and violence during this week's tax protests, so that they can finally ally their baseless rhetoric about the vast majority of Tea Party members being violent extremists and racists with something tangibly shocking, so-called anarchists soon arrived on the scene to announce that they would infiltrate and pose as Tea Partiers before carrying out false flag incidents to portray the Tea Party movement as dangerous bigots.
Now the dirty tricks have intensified, with provocateurs posing as violent racists calling for assassination attempts against the President and attempting to get Tea Party leaders to agree with their rhetoric.
Oklahoma Watchdog received a tip Wednesday noting that a Tea Party activist, Jamison Faught, with the Muskogee Tea Party, had received a call from a man threatening violence at their Thursday Tea Party in Muskogee.
Faught said the man – using a blocked phone number – called him asking him if he was the head of the Muskogee Tea Party. He said he was.
"He then asked, 'Can I bring my gun?' I told him I didn't think it would be a good idea in light of the shooting at the mall this past Saturday," Faught said. "He then said, 'Don't you think someone should shoot the president?'"
Alarmed by the direction the conversation was going and what the man was saying, Faught said gun violence is not necessary and that the Tea Party advocates changing things at the ballot box. The caller said he "wanted to shoot somebody" and then said that the Second Amendment – the Right to Bear Arms – was "all about shooting n*ggers."
"That's when I hung up," Faught said. He said they shared this information with the Muskogee County Sheriff, the District Attorney's office, the U.S. Marshals and the Muskogee Police Department.
"There are people out there who want to portray the Tea Parties as racist," Faught said. "That they are against African-Americans and the federal government. We're not."
- A d v e r t i s e m e n t
- {openx:49}
Would a genuine racist with any remaining intellect deliberately broadcast his desire to shoot the President, knowing that Faught would immediately report him to the authorities?
Invoking violence and attempting to get the intended target of your sting to agree is a favorite tactic of the feds every time they attempt to radicalize and bust some two-bit retarded militia or Muslim group, but this could just have easily been an adherent of the "crash the tea party" initiative, whose founder preaches non-violence but whose members subscribe to the opposite. It could have been a genuine Tea Partier, since any movement comprised of millions of people is bound to contain at least some fruitbats, but with all the hype surrounding violence and promises on behalf of anarchists to stage false flags while posing as Tea Partiers, the most likely culprit is clearly one of the former two groups.
Remember, it was the feds, paid for with your tax dollars, who directed phony right-wing radio host Hal Turner to make death threats against federal judges in Illinois and lawmakers in Connecticut.
The supposed white supremacist worked for the agency from 2002 until 2007. "His job was basically to publish information which would cause other parties to act in a manner which would lead to their arrest," Michael Orozco told the Associated Press.
As Griffin points out, the fact that the call was put through to a leading Tea Party representative in Oklahoma, the same location as the 1995 Oklahoma City Bombing, perpetrated by the FBI-directed patsy Timothy McVeigh, allied with the recent controversy surrounding efforts to create a volunteer Oklahoma militia to counter growing federal power in the state, strongly suggests that this was some kind of attempted set-up that would have been used to provoke authorities into crushing the Tea Party movement in Oklahoma.
As we reported yesterday, the Oath Keepers organization was forced to withdraw from a "Restore the Constitution" rally in Virginia because participants in the march were spewing violent rhetoric and threatening to brandish guns during the event, which is precisely what the establishment media wants to see so they can exploit such scenes to demonize Constitutionalists as unhinged extremists with gun fetishes.
With Crash the Tea Party leader Jason Levin having apparently organized leaders across 65 cities to coordinate the plan to "infiltrate and dismantle" the Tea Party rallies, we can expect all manner of dirty tricks to be played during today's events, but the acid test on whether they have any impact will be down to how genuine tea partiers react and whether or not the corporate media takes the bait.
The Axiom For Liberty blog has put together a useful guide on how to deal with provocateurs in the event of them attempting to cause mayhem at today's protests. The key thing is to never lose your temper and always keep the anarchists, feds, or whomever they be me within the confines of a camera lens so that their false flags can be exposed for all to see.
By the way, people who know what's coming are taking advantage of our healthy & delicious storable food!

U2 is back, playing arenasThis is the tour where U2 was applying for the biggest band in the world and I think they got the job. Popmart was huge, Pop didn't do so well, so U2 needed to make a change and what a change it was!! Seeing them again in an arena setting for the first time since ZooTV was amazing!! I went with my sister this time. They came on stage with the house lights on for "Elevation". Since Joey Ramone just died, they played "I Remember You". And we saw Bono playing piano during "The Sweetest Thing". That was a big surprise!! Seeing them playing "Bad" again (for myself the first time since the arena ZooTV tour) was incredible and touching. "The Fly" was a surprise also. The last thing I remember was watching The Edge during his "Walk On" guitar solo at the end. It was so moving and I tried to take a mental snapshot of that solo. Almost ten years later and I still remember it, so it was just great to see them playing it again at the 360 Rose Bowl show.

It was hot and muggy Sunday morning, with thunder, lightening and a massive 10-minute downpour. Southern California made the news because we had some weather. I wasn't in the mood to heat up the house too much with cooking, so I decided to make a go of Bon Appetit's Cook the Cover Challenge with the August cover - Tomato, Onion and Roasted Lemon Salad. The only cooking involved was roasting lemon slices tossed with sage, sugar and olive oil, and I was able to "play" with the gorgeous heirloom tomatoes, purple onions, and micro greens in my plating and photography. I wish I could say these tomatoes and herbs came from my garden. I do have a few herbs in window boxes on my patio, but I still needed to supplement with some better looking sage and micro greens. I was able to come up with a few sprigs of homegrown parsley...
Once I got into the zone, spending a good part of Sunday preparing food, styling and photographing, listening to music, hanging out with Trapper, and sipping on some wine, I was reminded of how much I enjoy all of that. I just wish I still had the motivation and time to cook, photograph and blog a few times a week.
The dressing for the salad is an interesting combination of pomegranate molasses, olive oil and allspice. I love pomegranate molasses and also used it recently in Bon Appetit's Sweet and Tangy Hummus.
|Trapper just thinks he wants a tomato
The Mighty Untouchables played upbeat dance music, we had a good turnout, and the food was easy and fun. Jim & Carmen took the prize with their Spicy Shrimp and Forbidden Rice Wraps! The only thing missing was dessert, and I really had a sweet tooth that night!

Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad is speaking at the United Nations this morning, calling for a new world order that does away with the "hegemony" of the United States.
"No one feels secure or safe, even those who have stockpiled thousands of weapons and atomic bombs," he said. "Human beings do not deserve to be suffering under the current situation."
Criticizing other nations for "accepting the hegemony of arrogant and expansionist powers," he said that "the current world order is discriminatory and based on injustice," and "based on the principle of domination and the conquering of others."
Although he did not mention the United States by name, Ahmadinejad's vision conveniently sees a smaller world for "world powers" in the new world order, and a greater voice for smaller nations.
"The need to remove the structural barriers" that allow smaller nations to participate "in governing the world has never been greater," he said.
The speech comes one day after President Barack Obama's speech to the General Assembly, in which he warned Iran that time is not "unlimited" to resolve disputes over its nuclear program.

Ola! Here is Wally's brother Gus from Rocket Monkeys which is an animated series that airs, or is going to be airing on Nickelodeon. This next lesson is going to simply show you "how to draw Gus from Rocket Monkeys". Gus is the responsible one of the two. He is the eldest, which means he is also naturally the captain of their ship. Gus has a more focused expression on his face, which means he must do a lot of planning and thinking. Drawing Gus should be pretty simple so make sure to tackle this tut especially if you are looking forward to watching the show.

Do you go with a real or artificial Christmas tree — and how do you (or did you, if you've done it already) choose?
Lots of folks in Colorado go with a tree they cut themselves. If that's what you want, Suzanne Brown has scoped out how and where to do it in this Colorado Style story.
But if a trip to the forest with a saw just isn't your party, your choices are down to real and artificial.
So we grilled Doug Berard, the garden buyer for Home Depot who's in charge of selecting merchandise for its Colorado stores. He answered a few questions for the Colorado at Home blog from his perch in Seattle.

Rudy Fernandez, former Nuggets guard, will play in Spain
As expected, Rudy Fernandez will play overseas instead of returning to the NBA, the former Nuggets guard announced in Spanish on his Twitter feed, @rudy5fernandez. He came to Denver last season and played in 31 games, averaging 8.6 points, before suffering a season-ending back injury, which resulted in surgery.
Fernandez wrote that he signed a three-year deal with Real Madrid, the same team that he played for during the NBA lockout.
With the addition of Wilson Chandler – and the surprising quality play of Corey Brewer – Fernandez might not have played too much for Denver in the coming seasons, if he was to have re-signed.
Fernandez did have a special bond with Denver coach George Karl – this was one of my favorite features I wrote last season.
And he did make the coolest assist of last season:

~This adorable banner was made by my dear friend Sekhmet!
Hear ye! Hear ye!
This is your conscience talking. Also your sense of humour, your sense of pride, and your intuition, and we all say you should read The Harry Potter Literary Storm!
*M_O_M enters*
Me? Have anything to do with your conscience, sense of humour, sense of pride and intuition telling you to read the humour story Im proudest of? I dont know what youre talking about. But, you know, they are pretty important aspects of you, so for the sake of them, Id say why not try it? After all, if your conscience, sense of humour, sense of pride and intuition abandon you in protest of you not reading Happys story, itll be far worse than (almost) anything that could happen as a result of you reading it. Right?
Anyway, my names Georgia, Ive recently fallen in love with the Prewett family, I have a long term humour story which you may have noticed Im attempting to promote
I mean, which your conscience, sense of humour, sense of pride and intuition think you should read, of course-
And I like to hide behind supposedly witty remarks and a bent sense of logic.
To avoid digging myself into a deeper hole, Id like to dive in and tell you about my stories.
Prewett'd: Wedding Tears, Funeral Tears
This is my entry to the third run of the Gauntlet. It's from Gideon's perspective (thus the 'Prewett'd' bit), and is the darkest piece of writing I think I've ever put together. I'm really, really proud of this story, and really hope people read it - although it was for the Gauntlet, this is now a part of the lifetime of (my version of) the Prewetts.
The Harry Potter Literary Storm
Its an ongoing humour fiction starring an OC called Happy OBrien, who, in this alternate universe, is responsible for the creation of Harry Potter. He and his assistant Jackie van de Geissen and crack team of anonymous authors have put together the Harry Potter books in a very different way to what youre used to.
The rumours are true, the first drafts are too, and this story had been nominated thrice for best humour fiction.
THATS RIGHT, NOMINATED THRICE FOR BEST HUMOUR FICTION; can you believe it? *Will never get over the flattery*
and the lovely Schmergo put in nomination for best OC too, with Happy.
*Pats Happy on the head*

Chapter Six promotional banner:
Chapter Seven, Part Two and Three promotional banner:
Jackie and Barry side-kicks banner (Barry's a dude from my Dean's Corner series of artpad movies)
Prewettd : Gucky and the Fork Tree
Its a one shot of pretty good length, about Gideon, Fabian and Molly as children, submitted for the One Shot Challenge: Muggle Artifacts. Its the first story Ive written about the Prewetts, and certainly not the last.
And he Turned Around Snobbily and Walked Away
Another one-shot, inspired by the quote from Prisoner of Azkaban, when Snape accuses James of strutting. Good for a grin or two, or so Ive been told.
Ginny's Midnight Drama
One-shot; basically a gag in story form. It was my first submitted story, and will always be special. Good, special ficlet. *Pats*
The Letter-Opener
Definitely more serious, and certainly not a humour story. But it came third in the One-Shot Challenge: Borgin and Burke's. Just thought you should know.
Well, its a big thing for me. I find Tom Riddle difficult to write, at any age.
~Thank you to joanna!
The Acromantula and its Ability to Consume the Most Repulsive Beasts on This Earth
This is a fun story about Draco Malfoy being cocky ^^
Nothing for Chrismas
Chaptered, and complete. It's light and fluffy and about the Weasleys. I like it more now, because it mentions Gideon and Fabian Prewett, and even Morticia, an OC of mine.
Oh, and that was nominated (by the fantastically wonderful HermyRox12) for the Quicksilver Quills best General Fiction award.
T'was but a Puddle
It's a poem, and I think it's fun. ^^
And this was nominated for Best Poem. Thank you, HermyRox12!
The last part of chapter seven of The Harry Potter Literary Storm. The very last. Eep!
A ballad about a gnome called Gary the Green
And most likely, plenty more Prewetty stuff.
Somehow, I doubt anyone will read this. Ever. But if you did, well done, congratulations, thank you, and Im sure youll enjoy my stories a lot more. So please, scroll down a bit and read about them all over again. Maybe even read the things themselves! *Noting pointlessness of having just written all of this*
Anyway, a nice day to all, and to all a nice day!
December 3rd, 1980
It is a dark day for Gideon Prewett.
His fiancé has died at the hands of Voldemorts followers. His brother has been missing for two weeks. Now, numbness and desperation are beginning to get the better of him, and the line between Right and Wrong is fading.
This was a story of the Gauntlet, third run.
The locket the cup the snake something of Gryffindors or Ravenclaws
Oh no! Ginny has found her in an emergency situation of dire need. Harry lies before her and Ron and Hermione are long gone. Whatever shall she do? Well, it looks like Ginny is feeling a bit Dramatic.

titanuim cookware is the latest (stupid) idea, that i bet, will draw lots of stupid (i.e. stoooopid) people to its greatest, and yet totally non-related, uses yet!!!
first of all... the word "titanium" almost vibrates, with all too many, as something only "superman" can possess, let alone understand and own!
if they make a titanium "razor blade" (with only hints of titanium), for ten times the money, for one stupid example... then a titanium "frying pan" must make food ten times better!!!!
look people.... first of all, no pan you buy will be made of pure titanium, and the name is only used to sucker you in to pay more!
the mere thin veneer you recieve of titatnium, will be on a "non-stick" surface.
HINT#1 to serious cookers: Just say "NO", to outragiously priced, non-stick, pans, with the latest voo-doo mineral, or element.
most serious cooks, want a somewhat "sticky" surface, with a high heat capacity, like the good'ol iron pans, or all-clad stainless surfaces, or aluminum, that leave good concentrated food bits on the bottom (for de-glazing and taste goodness).
it is a fact, that stainless steel cooks more consistently than the most expensive material, and latest new-comer, titanium.
unless you are a Mt. Everest climber on a daily basis, and you need the maximum strength to weight ratio (i.e. as if you will be cooking an omelette and need a non-stick pan!!!!, whilst using the pan to beat a "sasquantch", in those conditions!!!!.. AS IF!!!), you are wasting your money, and time, on something less desirable, but way more expensive!
who gives a crap, about a "new" non-stick surface, that costs loads of money, that does not offer anything above the normal non-stick pan, other than a fancy strength_and_material name... that hopes to sucker in a bunch of new_age cookers.... for lots of extra money... who should NOT be worrying about the strength_to_weight ratio of their god damn frying pan cuz they burn their eggs to begin with!?!?!?
sigh... (sorry... i lost my head!)
* picks up head, and asks 'clown#3' to screw it on. *
i lost my head there. its back now.
just say "NO" to expensive new-age-metal non-stick pans.... and learn to cook an omelette on your great grandmothers ol'iron pan (with butter)... (or cheaper non-stick-non-titanium pan if you must!)
p.s. just say NO!
sorry to get clown#3 involved. i was hoping to keep secret the fact that i have a family of clowns that live within my head (and sleep under my bed), who bicker and snicker all night long... with their big, huge, clown feet.... and stuff and such.

But, it is, after all, just an assumption.
Personally, I love the idea of washing my frypan with a cheap paper towel. But, the practical side dictates a bit of soap and a rinse, then a towel.
I was just crushed, however to learn that scanpan has PTFE. In your rampages, have you EVER seen a truly non-toxic non-stick pan, and if so, give it up. SHARE!

shea... 'crushed' is a relative term theses days.
if you opted to get a "flu shot", you just got inoculated with mercury.
are you 'crushed'?
but hey.... keep worring about the little things.... like paying 5 times the money, for a non-stick pan,.... (that all it is, but ain't).
that don't even "cut the cheese"...so to speak.
p.s. repeat: "that doesn't even do!", relative to a flood of cheapness that does.

Maybe you've missed the point of titanium? It's not a strength to weight ratio or anything else. For some reason the "Teflon" sticks better to it allowing them to make a tougher non-stick surface so you can use metal utinsels. That's it. I have several titanium lined pans (sautee and small frypan) that I use for eggs, bacon, stirfrys etc... Everything else I use my "stick pans" for.
P.S. You don't have to pay a fortune for titanium. I paid $20 for my egg pan and $40 for my Sautee pan at TJMaxx

I heard that titanium cookware is used only for camping (due to weight advantage and prohibitive price).

Aluminum would serve that purpose much better. Titanium is a terrible conductor of heat and is also horribly expensive per pound.

The reason for the expense of titanium has always been a question of mine. Afterall, it is the fourth most common metal (1-iron, 2-aluminum, 3-copper, 4-titanium) and the eight most common element in the earth's crust.

I read on The New Scientist magazine (my favorite all time favorite science magazine, they had a large article on a new extraction process of titanium) that titanium is so expenxive becaue of how involved the extraction process is. The article was featuring a new method of titanium extraction that would have made titanium possibly cheap enough to make cutlery out of. I have not seen any titanium cutlery recently however so I guess the process was not a success.

Even if a cheap process for extracting and refining titanium were to be invented, it would still have no place in kitchen knives because of its low hardness and wear resistance.

That is so interesting. I did not know titanium cutlery existed. When the first Blade movie (starring Wesley Snipes) came ou I saw a few threads on why his "acid etched titanium sword" would not work in real life. The major issue would be hardness. A titanium sword might be stronger than a steel one, but not harder, so it would lose its sharpness very quickly. I wonder it the titanium cutlery in the above post is actually a titanium alloy. It probably could be made harder than titanium alone.

Titanium cutlery sounds like a gimmick (or fraud). Even though JWW is a respectable source.
The only advantage would be weight.

I agree with SirSpice, titanium/titanium alloy really has no practical place for knives unless you need the acid resistance for cutting sulfuric acid infused tomatoes all day long!

I highly recommend Swiss Diamond. It is pressure cast aluminum body with bonded (not sprayed-on Teflon) material that contains industrial diamond particles, which are good heat conductors.
I have used mine for a solid two years and they look brand new. They release burned-on food with just a wipe and a quick rinse. They can be used with metal utensils and go in the dishwasher (two things I would never do!) They also have a limited lifetime warranty and nifty glass lids with vent knobs.

The recruiter still gets his fee, does less work and is happy. The school gets me so of course they're extremely happy ( WB rolls eyes at self) The recruiter told me about some available jobs and we narrowed it down to two I was interested in and I went for an interview at one school and checked it all out and really liked it and the people there so I took that job. If you're looking for work from outside Korea, I'd never just take a job from a recruiter without talking to the school directly. In my expereince, recruiters are often dealing with so many positions that they tend to get the small (but often VERY important) details wrong... thinks like getting to Korea and finding out that you ARE teaching kindergarten afterall, oh, and your work day finishes at 8pm, not 6pm...

They were also recommended to me by someone on this site. When I registered with them, they asked for professional references which I know they followed up because I am still in touch with my ex-Employers. The positions offered to me were all large chains, and were always followed with email addresses of present teachers and interviews with the directors'. Footprints personally checks out all the schools and I was sent photo's of the housing and schools. I was actually disappointed that the position I ended up with wasn't through them, because these guys really work for that recruiters fee, and deserve it.

I don't need someone to 'hold my hand' or negotiate for me. What I was asking, rather, was how to circumvent the recruiters entirely. I know they can introduce me to a school, but many only tell me about schools I'm not interested in. How can I find schools without using a recruiter?

Yes, I agree - over the past 5-6 years, I saw a lot more schools and fewer recruiters. Now, it is seemingly the opposite - almost all the ads are either recruiters or the big chains, with very few independent schools. Someone asked me once about the Canadian husband-Korean wife recruiting team I know/trust in the Seoul area; Dave, at 011.239.9803 I also know that there are a couple of other websites that host schools info as well, but, err, I don't know if I can/should post info links here about that. As for the Wookie, I have been following his posts for awhile, and had no idea he was a recruiter. I'd trust him, based upon what I have read of his and the advice he has given.

Me too! I only found Moya just before last Christmas. I had no idea she did solo albums and then I saw one in the shop (TH) and just jumped forward and grabbed it off the shelf, nearly knocking this poor little kid over in the process Since then I've fallen in love.
I should also admit that I didn't really like Enya at first, but as I got used to Clannad and Moya, I've begun to warm more to Enya's music as well. I still prefer the 'other sister' though (Moya and Clannad ) to Enya, but I'm beginning to like her work much more.

Solar City
Solar City
Yes. We have contacted Solar City, given them the specs and photos of the install area. After a series of missed phone calls and us initiating a follow up call, because no one got back to us. We were told we need to sign some contract first before they will come out and do an official quote. They said we needed to sign the contract confirming we are working solely with Solar City before we could get any quote. We don't sign contracts before we know what the estimated cost will be. We told them to send the contact for us to review and an estimate cost of installation and to date we haven't received anything, no contract, no estimate, no phone call/email. Very disappointing experience with Solar City, especially since they are a preferred vendor recommended by Tesla. We are contacting other local electricians and solar companies and getting quotes with no problems or contracts.
Stay away from Solar City even though there is some ownership commonalities between Tesla and them. I wrote on another link that I had a very similar experience as jayzaqt. They kept trying to get me to sign up for a complete house solar distribution set up before they would come out and give me a quote. Wanted me to send pictures, etc of the garage, but never wanted to discuss the install of the outlet.
Finally, I got an electrician to come out and install it.
You might want to make sure they actually do service in your area first because they don't cover all of the United States yet.
Why is the treasury going after solar city? Is this what is keeping tesla stock flat?
Anyone have a good experience w/ Solar City? There seems to be an inherent conflict of interest w/ Tesla but that being the case what are other folks doing for electric charging?
Conflict of interest? Commonality of interest, rather.
Solar city is commonality of interest for Tesla but it's also a conflict of interest in having them recommended by Tesla without a disclosure or obvious disclosure that Elon's an investor.
Solar City's model is as flawed as Tesla's current model. The misguided federal government subsidies have created a non-sustainable model.
We would be best served by figuring out what's a good model to support these initiatives and if this is or is not commercially viable long term.
that being said, i'm a fan but just being critical about the current state.
SC is unique in its leasing arrangement, I think. It also has no connection or commitment to any particular panel brand or design, so is free to use the latest greatest at the time, which is subject to rapid change (as Solyndra etc. discovered to their dismay).
Solar City has been good for me and i'm in Antelope Valley. They installed our Solar and also our High Power Wall Connetor. They were professional,quick, clean and responsive. Now we havent heard of solar city before we had solar so we yelped them. Some good reviews some bad...so i really think they just got a bad installers.
Luckly for me they were good. If they were terriable i would have plastered that on all the reveiw sites so no one would fall into the same trap like i did.
My wall unit charger, SC called from mountain view ca and they were very polite and professional. I just snapped a few shots of garage and my breaker unit and answered a couple of questions and that was it. No one had to come to my house. Although we had a snag with signing the documents, but i think that was an adobe issue.
I dont own any stock of tsla or affliated with them. Just an average joe giving his 2 cents.
Just want to make a correction.... SC is going to setup my wiring to prep for my wall charging unit. They will finalize when i get the wall unit. Still new to this site and dont know how to edit my previous post.
You can't. This site has no edit functions, except for the author of a thread who can edit or delete the original comment (hover the pointer over the Tesla logo upper left to see those options.)
Doing the solar city quote process. How many folks are putting solar on their roofs as well?
@rwang | OCTOBER 25, 2012: Doing the solar city quote process. How many folks are putting solar on their roofs as well?
Having Solar City install a 32kW array on our roof. Currently in the "System Design — Drafting Site Plan" stage. They are not installing the HPWC, because it's a trivial installation and my electrician can do it cheaply.
We just signed a solar lease with sc very happy to lock in to electric rates for twenty year fixed price.
@Alex K - 32kW! Holy c***! How many panels is that? I have a Solar City 4.62kW 22 panel array that takes up half the roof of a 1500 sq. ft. home. I was very happy with Solar City's work.
@stevenmaifert@a... | NOVEMBER 4, 2012: 32kW! Holy c***! How many panels is that? I have a Solar City 4.62kW 22 panel array that takes up half the roof of a 1500 sq. ft. home. I was very happy with Solar City's work.
They didn't say how many panels, but from the preliminary site design, it looks like 133 panels which would make them 240W panels (it's actually 31.92kW). It covers about 9000 sq ft. of roof area. It has been over 6 weeks since they came out for the site inspection, so I'm still waiting to hear back on how they will be installing them. I did a prepay for the lease, which means that my electricity will be "free" for the next 20 years.
@Alex K - Wow! Very impressive. We did a prepay 2 years ago when they were offering 15 year leases. When they finish the system design, they will email you a PDF file with very detailed drawings for your approval.
Alex K;
What does that lease average out to over the 20 yrs, and how does that compare to your grid expenses at present?
@Brian H | NOVEMBER 5, 2012: What does that lease average out to over the 20 yrs, and how does that compare to your grid expenses at present?
The one time lease payment is about $30K. My average monthly electric is $425, it takes less than 6 years to pay for itself if you don't factor in the time value of money. They do have several monthly payment options for the 20-year lease; the cheapest was about $300/mo with a 4-5% increase every year.
Counteracting the time value of money is the likely increases in electric charges. Good deal.
That is much better than what I was offered. $8000 to cover ~$70/month electricity (about 40% of my bill). Would take almost ten years to pay for itself--and I'd still have a bill from the power company.

We regret to inform you but we could not locate any available cars in that area.
You have the following options:
With the dramatic Great Smoky Mountains National Park as a backdrop, a Gatlinburg and Pigeon Forge vacation overflows with picturesque views and fun recreation. Get back to nature with a stay in one of the many cozy cabins or charming hotels, while spending your trip hiking through the mountainous wilderness. Take an exhilarating zipline flight over the treetops, a rousing rafting adventure or step back in history on board the Titanic Museum.
With plenty of things to do, a complete vacation package to Gatlinburg and Pigeon Forge is affordable and fun, a place where you'll find great deals, giving you more room in your budget to shop and explore. Sip your morning coffee overlooking the mountains or cast a line for your next meal on your thrilling Tennessee vacation.
The closest large airport is McGhee Tyson in Knoxville, while smaller flights land at Gatlinburg-Pigeon Forge. Pack for the seasons, though, because summer weather reaches the 90s and winter delivers occasional snow.

No longer content to just make
a shit-ton of money off Star Wars rule only sci-fi fashion, the Australian clothing like Black Milk revealed that they'll had into thw fantasy realm by releasing dresses and leggings inspired by The Hobbit and the Lord of the Rings movies beginning this Tuesday, January 22. Some of them are awesome (e.g., the Middle-Earth map leggings and dress), some are weird (a dress with a big honking picture of Liv Tyler's face), but I imagine the Gandlaf leggings are going to be worth their weight in Smaug's gold for the "YOU SHALL NOT PASS" jokes alone. You can check out these and some of the other styles below.

Riverside's most famous architectural treasure, the Mission Hotel Inn is both a popular ceremonial venue and a favorite location for wedding photography.
Start off your wedding day photo shoot at the hotel entrance, where the bride and groom can pose for a beautiful portrait in front of the large wooden door. Have your wedding photographer organize a group photo of the bridal party beside the ornate fountain at the front of the hotel. Afterward, venture inside the elegant lobby, where your photographer can take some relaxed photos of the bridal party lounging around on the chic furniture.
The members of your party can also pose for a group photo staggered along the lobby staircase. As you explore the lower levels of the hotel, use the numerous gorgeous corridors as settings for group and individual photos. The main courtyard on the ground floor is filled with an array of statues and sculptures, as well as colorful flower collections that will create the perfect setting for your wedding photos. Once you've finished at the Mission Hotel Inn, take a short limousine ride over to Fairmount Park, located less than a mile away. Here your wedding photographer can arrange a group photo of the bridal party on one of the expansive verdant lawns. The bride and groom can pose for an intimate portrait beneath any of the park's large shade trees or lakeside, with the tranquil Evans Lake serving as a backdrop. Finally, visit the park's delightful rose garden, where your wedding photographer can snap some great individual and group photos.
Covering over forty acres of the University of California, Riverside campus, the UCR Botanic Gardens will provide perfection location for your wedding photography session. The garden contains thirteen different floral collections, and you'll want to explore them all! Begin your wedding day photo shoot at the Rose Gardens, where the bride and groom can pose for some romantic portraits, surrounded by an array of vibrant clusters of rose bushes. Afterward, head over to the Iris Gardens, whose diverse selection of colorful iris plants, combined with scattered benches and tall shade trees, will make an ideal location for a photo shoot. You can then walk over to the Subtropical Fruit Orchard and have the bridal party pose for photos, using the orchard's lush greenery as a backdrop.
Once you've finished at the orchard, take a short walk to the Lath Dome, a unique structure with countless indoor displays that will take your breath away! The dome's Lathhouse can also work as an intimate setting for some portraits of the bride and groom, as well as shots of the groomsmen and bridesmaids separately. Finally, head over to the Botanic Garden's koi pond. This secluded area contains a miniature wooden bridge that will work well for group and individual photos. You'll have the chance to explore all these areas (and more!) during your wedding photography session at the UCR Botanic Gardens!

According to a press release from the Humboldt County Sheriff's Office, dated Oct. 12, 2012:
On 10-11-2012, approximately 9:30 a.m., the Humboldt County SheriffŌĆÖs Office assisted by the Eureka Police Problem Oriented Policing Team, and Humboldt County Drug Task Force served a Humboldt County Superior Court Search Warrant in the 2000 block of Sunset Ridge Road, Blocksburg. Upon serving the search warrant, deputies located and detained 17 suspects. As deputies arrived and announced their presence one of the suspects, identified as Johines Ibonnet, attempted to jump out the back window of the residence and broke his ankle. He was transported to a local hospital and treated for his injury prior to being booked into jail.
Upon searching the 45 acre parcel deputies found a very large sophisticated marijuana growing and processing operation. The operation consisted of marijuana plants being grown in two large greenhouses estimated to be between 60 feet by 100 feet, along with marijuana plants being grown out in the open and inside the residence. The residence and greenhouses were powered by two commercial sized 25 KW generators. The growing marijuana plants ranged in size from 6 feet to 8 feet tall and were budding. Deputies estimated the growing plants to have at least one to two pounds of marijuana bud being produced on each plant. There were a total of 718 growing marijuana plants located and seized on the property. Inside a large drying shed, estimated to be approximately 60 feet by 40 feet, deputies located and seized approximately 900 lbs of drying marijuana bud. Inside the residence deputies located two commercial marijuana trimming machines being used to trim the dried marijuana bud from the plants. Deputies also located approximately 132 pounds of dried marijuana bud along with numerous drying racks and 261 sealed bags of marijuana bud ready to sell, estimated to weigh approximately one pound or more each, along with packaging material, scales, a Norinco AK-47 assault rifle with several loaded high capacity magazines, a money counter and approximately $9,500.00 cash.
A total of approximately 1293 pounds of dried marijuana bud was located. Dried marijuana bud is being sold for approximately $2,000 a pound. The estimated value of the dried marijuana bud seized is $2,586,000.00 whole sale. If the live marijuana plants had been harvested they would had yielded conservatively an additional 718 pounds of dried marijuana bud estimated to be $1,436,000.00 wholesale. The value of the marijuana seized is estimated to be at least $4 million dollars in just marijuana bud, not including the leaves. Several of the suspects admitted to investigating officers they were hired to work at the marijuana grow as laborers.
The following is a list of those arrested at the scene and booked in the Humboldt County Correctional Facility on charges of Cultivation and Possession for sale of Marijuana, and Conspiracy to Commit a Felony:
- Elber Dejesus Ivonnet, male 53 years old from North Bergen, NJ -Bailed

Let's Save Our Children
I hope and pray someone gets a clue that we have to stop this nonsense and head in a different direction and demand parents to be more participants for their children. When they are dead or in jail it's too late and the voices seem to get softer and softer.
I have watched over the years at how this country conducts its business and I am astounded at the hostility directed at our youth.
It's appalling to see grown people attack and disgrace and demean our children without blinking an eye. These are supposed to be educators not people who harass or hurt our children just because our children are brown.
I'm the mother of two son's and they are grown and living their lives productively and I am very proud of that. I did my job as a mother by being involved with my children's activities and watched their behavior and taught them right from wrong.
I wanted to raise good citizens and gentlemen, someone to be proud of and to be educated. When one does go to school our school system automatically is racist from the minute our children enter the doors.
My question to you is this. Isn't it about time that the Black community stop trying to keep our children in these schools and start our own? The system does not work and our children are ending up in jail and not being taught properly, it's obvious this is not working. Why isn't the leadership of the Black race seeing the spiraling of our children and help stop it? My God what are we so afraid of to help ourselves and protect our children and give them a good start?
I can't blame everything on the white man but I can recognize what he is doing to our communities and our children without a doubt. But I don't see us demanding better schools or books or teachers. We have a voice in this country and it seems to me we are not using it very well.
I hope and pray someone gets a clue that we have to stop this nonsense and head in a different direction and demand parents to be more participants for their children. When they are dead or in jail it's too late and the voices seem to get softer and softer.
Let's do something that makes sense and stop the nonsense before it's too late. Or is it?

sss203 necesitaba un nuevo diseño de página web y lanzó un concurso de diseño en 99designs.
Un ganador ha sido elegido entre 45 diseños de 12 diseñadores freelance.
This contest is for designing a super cool Wiki Skin template for use on the Mediawiki platform.
Desired Color Scheme:
Desired Style:
Accepted File Formats:
Standard Web Formats (.jpg, .gif or .png); Vector Formats (.eps, .pdf or .ai); Layered Formats (.psd or .tiff)
I am looking for a cool, intuitive, modern and simple Wiki Skin template design. If you're unfamiliar with Wikiskins, they are like themes for Wordpress.
If you take a look at the themes, currently out there on the market, you'll note that they are all pretty bland and look like the early Wordpress theme days. I'd like to catapult the offerings in this arena to modern times.
In particular, I'm looking for Wiki Skin template designs that would fit ontop of a Mediawiki software platform. I'm not looking for coding right now, but I figure if you've ever used Wikipedia that would give you a sense of navigation and function of the website (i.e., the purpose being for group collaboration).
Feel free to move menus, objects whenever you feel appropriate
- Standard fonts only.
- Prefer small number of colors.
Be creative. Think what a wiki template would look like if it were designed by Apple or for the Facebook, and college generation.
Just to give you a sense of some the better existing wiki designs out there, here are a few that I like:
http://en.opensuse.org/Contact (It'd be great if someone submitted a design inspired by the opensuse design, but a little more ipod like).
http://www.olpc.at/mediawiki/index.…Shiki_Wiki - I like the graphical edit, history and article editing buttons on this standard wiki template
http://download.xdrive.com/s/702960…MQlqoBAHuC - This is a link to a jpeg of screen shot of dialog box on another webpage that i thought was really cool and might be nice to inspire a modern Ipodesque wiki theme. A submission that took the coolness and look of feel of tailored it for a wiki would be awesome.
Winner must supply vector file and inform contest holder of fonts and all other details. The winner will transfer all rights to the design to the contest holder upon payment of the prize.

László Vass, the founder leader of Vass Shoes began his enterprise in 1978. Emerging from a generation of shoemakers adventurous enough to return to the roots of their craft, László Vass has revived a rich old tradition which has added impetus to the art of shoemaking in a new age. The primary aspiration of Vass Shoes is to make ready-to-wear or bespoke handcrafted shoes in a variety of styles that are both comfortable and elegant, but also sturdy and long-lasting. Traditional tools are used in our workshop and hundreds of meticulous operations are performed with meticulous care, and paying special attention to detail.
Due to our uncompromising approach, our customers arrive from all over the world in order to buy from our wide range of top quality, hand-made shoes.
On this page you can view the parameters that can help us to get a clearer picture of your requirements
when ordering your ultimate fit, high quality, hand-made Vass shoes.
We also manufacture bespoke shoes in our workshop upon request. During the last century, a hand-made shoe that perfectly fitted its wearer and that came up to the highest standards of quality, lasted for decades when looked after properly by the use of shoe trees, and when repaired regularly. In those days good shoes were an essential part of the dress code of decent people. Today, however, the emphasis is placed more upon exclusivity and luxury. This traditional shoe, carefully made after the measuring process may be worn for many years, unlike low-cost production line footwear, whose design, to the greatest extent, is dictated by prevailing fashions.
Bespoke shoes are ready to wear within six weeks from the time of the measurement process. Customers are then invited to the shop to try them on.
