5 More Sources for Good Cocktail Info Online
We recently shared a list of 8 cocktail blogs you should be reading, but of course the world of cocktails online is not just limited to individual blogs. Here are a few more great sources for cocktail chat, recipes, and advice on the web.
eGullet Spirits & Cocktails Forum
The eGullet discussion boards cover restaurants in lots of regions, plus kitchenware, recipes, and more, but I find the cocktail section to be one of the most engaging. The group (which includes quite a few bar professionals) chats about topics ranging from what makes a good cocktail-focused liquor store to which recipes they like in various cocktail books, what to make with lesser-known liqueurs, and how to tweak old classics. There's an interesting thread nominating the best cocktails of the decade and another recommending good affordable bourbons for mixing. If you have some time on your hands (and you've already exhausted the SE: Drinks archives, of course), this is a worthwhile way to spend it.
Mixology Monday
Since 2006, cocktail bloggers have participated in a monthly cocktail challenge, contributing a drink recipe related to a given theme. Then the posts are all rounded up on a rotating host's blog. The topics can be anything from fire to vegetables to equal-parts drinks, and reading along can introduce you to new cocktail bloggers as well as new cocktails. Want to participate in this cocktail community event? Here's how.
Kindred Cocktails
The design's not super-slick, but if you're wondering what drinks you can make with, say, gin and sparkling wine or bourbon and lemon, you can throw those ingredients into the handy search tool at Kindred Cocktails and get craft cocktail recipes from enthusiasts and bartenders around the world.
Free online education from the likes of Dale DeGroff and David Wondrich? That's a pretty good deal. These lessons start pretty simple (what's a shaker?) and include videos to help you get the hang of skills like muddling, shaking, and straining. There are recipes and advice about which drink goes in which glass, too.
Coming Soon: PUNCH
Launching in October, Talia Baiocchi and Leslie Pariseau's PUNCH will explore cocktail culture, wine, and spirits in a narrative format with writing from talented folks including Jordan Mackay and Brad Thomas Parsons. The online magazine will be made in collaboration with Ten Speed Press. Stay tuned for their first issue!

LONDON — London woke up Friday to the "day after" of what has been called the worst assault on British soil since World War II.
As the British cope with the tragedy of Thursday's terror attacks, they will also have to confront what the attack means going forward and how it will or will not affect their daily lives.
NBC News Correspondent Martin Fletcher, based in Israel, has spent years living through and reporting on terrorist attacks.
In an interview with MSNBC.com, he talks about the differences he sees in the British and Israeli responses to terror.
Can you describe the mood in London?
The population of London is somewhere around seven million, so to generalize is totally impossible. But what I've noticed from the media coverage is how proud the British are of their stiff upper lip.
Everyone is congratulating themselves about how everyone is carrying on, and on how life continues as normal. Saying things like, "We are not going to let the terrorists change our way of life," and all these kinds of proud statements. [They're] comparing London today to the Blitz and saying that nothing can phase London.
What you see in the streets is a completely routine scene. I'm sitting now in a café just down the street from Russell Square, where there are still bodies down inside the tube that have not yet been taken out. But here where I'm sitting, you wouldn't know that anything was happening there. Everything seems completely normal.
That's the way it normally is in Israel or anywhere else. Within, say, half an hour of a bomb happening, in Israel anyway, the streets have been cleaned up and people continue to travel again.
One thing that is definitely different here is that there are far fewer people and far less traffic than normal because so many people have been told to stay out of the center of town if they don't need to come here.
Unfortunately, you have an inordinate amount of experience with terrorist attacks from your experience living and reporting in Israel. How is the British reaction to the terror attacks similar or different from the reaction in Israel?
I'd say it's very similar, to be honest. As I say, you can't see a big difference. Presumably, there is more awareness of security. At the British Museum they were searching people's bags, but I don't know if they do that normally or not.
But at most places here, it is wide open to terrorism. There is no attempt to search people's bags as they go into busy shopping malls or stations or buses. The awareness of the dangers of terrorism here — in practical terms of what they are actually doing about it — is close to zero. London proudly says that they have more surveillance cameras than any other city in the world. Apart from that, though, there is really no way here to stop a terrorist from attacking.
Whereas in Israel, a bag that has been left by itself in the street for more than two minutes, someone will report that bag to the police, and then the bomb squad will come and close off the area and investigate the bag and maybe blow it up. And all of that happens within minutes, literally within minutes. Whereas here, it is just wide open.
How is the Israeli culture of awareness different from that in London?
The most effective weapon against terrorism is simply public awareness and education about what constitutes a danger. In Israel, people live with that daily. Here, no one lives with that for a moment.
I can't imagine that anyone here, before Thursday, was thinking about bomb attacks. And it's probably the same in New York.
Right after 9/11, all the reports were, "Oh, now Americans are going to have to get used to a different way of life." They started making comparisons to Israelis, saying they are going to have to start showing their bags more frequently, etc.
But, today in New York, is anyone overly concerned about terrorism? Of course not, no one's bags get checked. Whereas, in Israel, they've maintained that vigilance daily, for many years.
In New York it lasted a few weeks, maybe. And in London, even today — the day after the bombing, you don't see any kind of extra security, that's noticeable anyway.
There is always the question, "Will we have to change our way of life?" That is the critical question. And the fact is, yeah, Israelis did change their way of life. And that's how they live daily and it helps.
That's the most important weapon against terrorism – that public awareness. That does not exist in London and probably not in the United States, too. The problem is, you learn that the hard way.
How will some of London's precautionary measures — like closed circuit television cameras throughout the city — help in the investigation of the attack?
Yes, the critical thing in the investigation is the closed circuit TVs. There are about 8,000 of them in town, and about 2,000 of those closed circuit TVs monitor the tube or subway network.
The thing is that that they are useful only after the attack; to look at the old tapes and see what looked suspicious in hindsight.
The question is: Are they being monitored all the time properly, in such a way that they can prevent an attack?
Obviously, the answer is, no. Because you had four attacks here and no one had the slightest idea anything was happening.
How do you monitor tens of thousands of people pouring into the tube station every hour? You can't, at least not with the technology that they have.
So, the fact that they have all of these closed circuit TVs, it's helpful afterwards, but it's extremely unlikely that it will help prevent an attack. What are you going to look for, suspicious behavior among tens of thousands of people, all over London, at the same time? But it is very useful afterwards as part of the investigation of the crime scene.
The question then becomes, how many of those cameras were actually rolling? How many had tapes in them?
Every time this happens, it turns out that half of the cameras aren't working. It will be interesting to see what the results of this investigation are.
Finally, how is the British resolve and so-called 'stiff upper lip' helping people carry on?
At the moment, we know that 50 people were killed, but there will probably be more and several hundred were wounded. But for the time being, it's a one-off thing.
They are calling this the worst carnage or the worst loss of life in London since the Second World War. So that tells you something about how peaceful life has been here for so long.
When you ask about how people are carrying on, I think most people aren't even thinking about it. It happened. There is no sense whatsoever that anyone is worried or looking suspiciously about. I think life seems completely normal, except there are fewer people around. There is much less traffic.
A lot of people were told not to come to work and to stay out of the city center if possible. Since it's a Friday anyway, I'm sure a lot of people figured, why bother, I'll make it a long weekend.
Martin Fletcher is the NBC News Tel Aviv Bureau Chief and lead correspondent. He is on assignment in London to cover the terror attacks. You can see more of his reporting on the similarities and differences between British and Israeli reaction to terrorism on NBC's Nightly News with Brian Williams tonight.

The Minnesota Vikings have been publicly mum about the status of star running back Adrian Peterson, officially claiming he'll be a game-time decision against the Jacksonville Jaguars on Sunday. Even those within the organization have kept the decision quiet.
But if you're looking for one strong indication that Peterson will be on the field to make his triumphant return after suffering a torn anterior cruciate ligament last December, here it is: The Vikings plan to announce their offense over the public-address system to the fans at Mall of American Field.
Would they do that if Peterson wasn't going to be there to receive the thunderous ovation?
"We'll definitely have an answer on Sunday, one way or another," coach Leslie Frazier deadpanned Friday.
In addition, Peterson has informed the coaches that he fully plans on playing, and he has been convincing and positive about his rehab throughout. If Peterson does follow through on the plan to play, it's not clear how much he'll be on the field.
He'll be evaluated on a series-by-series basis to gauge his readiness and effectiveness.

Why Pilgrim's Pride Shares Popped
Is this meaningful? Or just another movement?
Although we don't believe in timing the market or panicking over market movements, we do like to keep an eye on big changes -- just in case they're material to our investing thesis.
What: Shares of chicken-processor Pilgrim's Pride (NASDAQ:PPC) were looking tasty today, jumping 10% after its larger rival Tyson Foods (NYSE:TSN) beat earnings estimates and forecasted higher chicken prices.
So what: In its earnings report, Tyson said meat production would continue to shrink this year, and demand for chicken has been growing as consumers switch from beef. It tripled operating profit in its chicken segment in the quarter, and said that chicken prices climbed 8.2% in the period. Last summer's drought in the Midwest has hurt livestock production across the board, and beef, in particular, and Tyson forecasted a 1% decline in beef, pork, and poultry production for the year.
Now what: Pilgrim's Pride reports earnings February 15th, and clearly the bar just got raised. Analysts had been expecting a $0.06 loss as the industry is seasonal, but will probably raise their expectations after today's news. I don't see any long-term competitive advantage in Pilgrim's Pride, but in the near term, the company looks poised to benefit from the drought and higher poultry prices.

Performance Management at UTC
A summary of the UTC Staff Performance and Development Review policy and procedure can be viewed HERE.
What is Performance Management?
Performance management is the systematic process by which an organization involves its employees in improving organizational efficiency and effectiveness in the accomplishment of the organization's mission and goals through ongoing communication.
According to best practice, employee performance management includes a cyclical process of:
1. Planning work through setting goals and expectations
- Define job criteria by which performance will be measured based on job description/position description questionnaire (PDQ)
- Establish performance standards and goals/objectives
Setting performance standards and goals/objectives that are directly linked to the employee's job responsibilities assists the employee in understanding what needs to be accomplished to be successful in the job. Communicating specific standards/goals and desired results for the employee to work towards during the annual review period is an essential step to successful performance management. You may choose to use the supplemental Goals and Objectives Form to assist in identifying such goals and objectives.
When setting individual employee performance standards and/or goals/objectives, it is important to ensure that each is aligned with the departmental, division, and university mission, performance standards, and goals/objectives.
- Communicate expectations to employees
- Rework objectives of performance standards if necessary
Interim performance reviews (quarterly, bi-annually, etc.) can be useful to determine if any of the originally established performance standards and/or goals/objectives need to be revised based upon changes in job responsibilities. Interim performance discussions can also assist in providing opportunities for ongoing feedback.
2. Performance Coaching
- Continually monitoring performance
- Giving effective feedback to promote growth and development
- Developing the capacity to perform
The Individual Development Plan (IDP) form can be used as a resource for developing employee-specific plans to obtain necessary knowledge, skills, abilities, or experiences needed to enhance job performance and goal attainment.
- Document discussions and progress
The Individual Development Plan (IDP) and Goals and Objectives Forms may be useful resources for documenting the ongoing performance coaching discussions and agreed upon action plans between supervisor and employee. These supplemental forms should be maintained and updated throughout the year to provide a record of performance and progress towards goals at the end of the annual review period. Information from these forms may be used to support the final Performance Review Summary Form that is submitted to Human Resources for retention in the permanent personnel file. All supplemental forms utilized throughout the year may be attached to the Performance Review Summary Form and submitted for retention in the employee's personnel file.
3. Annual Performance Reviews
- Annually assessing performance, following UT performance review process
The recommended UTC Performance Review Procedure is:
- First
Supervisors should ask employees to complete a self-evaluation of the employee's performance. The Staff Self Evaluation Form may be used for this purpose. In addition to this supplemental form option, the Peer 360-Degree Review Form may be used to obtain the perspective of the employee's performance from a supervisor, peer, or subordinate (or all three!).
The Staff Performance Report and Development Proposal Form may also be used in lieu of or in addition to the Staff Self Evaluation Form at the supervisor's discretion. This form allows the employee to provide a self-report of performance accomplishments during the review period and propose professional development opportunities they would like to pursue during the next review period.
- Second
The supervisor completes the Performance Review Summary Form to provide an evaluation of the employee's performance during the review period with respect to five key performance elements. For employees with supervisory responsibilities the supplemental Supervisory Addendum Form may be used to evaluate key supervisory performance elements (Planning & Organization, Performance Management, and Control) in addition to the five general performance elements evaluated for all employees.
To ensure consistency and accuracy, the supervisor should discuss the employee's performance review with his/her immediate supervisor. (This provision does not apply to executive-level supervisors who report directly to the Chancellor and Vice Chancellors.)
- Third
The supervisor schedules a meeting with the employee to discuss the written performance review and provides the employee with a copy of the performance review prior to the meeting.
- Fourth
The supervisor and employee meet to discuss the employee's performance during the previous calendar year. Such discussion may include job duties, performance standards/expectations, goals/objectives, and professional development plan for the employee.
The Performance Improvement Plan (PIP) Form must be completed for any employee receiving a summary performance rating of 9 or below and is strongly recommended for an employee receiving a 14 or below. The Individual Development Plan (IDP) may be used for any staff member with rating of 10 or above to assist in planning for ongoing professional development opportunities. The IDP document may be used as a developmental goal setting tool during each annual performance review meeting or as Performance Coaching tool as developmental needs arise throughout the review period.
- Finally
Following the formal annual performance review meeting, the supervisor makes any necessary adjustments to the written Performance Review Summary Form, signs the performance review and presents it to the employee for signature. After the employee has signed the performance review, the supervisor submits it to the supervisor's immediate supervisor for review and signature. After obtaining all required signatures, the supervisor submits the Performance Review Summary Form with any attachments or supplemental forms that were utilized to Human Resources for review and entry in IRIS and for retention in the employee's personnel file. Human Resources will return to the department any Performance Review Summary Form without all required signatures.
*Note: The Performance Review Summary Form is the only document required by UT Performance Review policy to be completed and submitted to Human Resources for retention and record keeping. However, any supplemental performance management document listed above that is utilized to formally review employee performance and establish performance standards/expectations and goals/objectives, may also be submitted for retention in the employee's personnel file at the supervisor's discretion.
- Rewarding good performance
Employee recognition is not just a nice thing to do. Employee recognition is a communication tool that reinforces and rewards the performance standards and behaviors that drive organizational performance and effectiveness. A helpful tip for successful reward/recognition of good performance is to recognize and praise the performance close in time to when the behavior was displayed or the performance occurred. In order to provide such immediate feedback, supervisors must continuously monitor performance The annual performance review meeting, interim performance review meetings, and other team/departmental meetings are great opportunities to reinforce good performance through recognition.
Because performance management is viewed as a continuous cyclical process, following the annual performance review meeting and evaluation of performance during the previous review period, the supervisor should repeat the process by revisiting the elements of Step 1 (Planning Work through setting goals and expectations) for the next review period. Referring to the employee's PDQ and completing a revised Goals and Objectives Form may assist in beginning the performance management cycle for the new performance review period.
Each element of the performance management cycle is essential in ensuring ongoing employee and organizational development through effective communication between employees and their supervisors.

MINNEAPOLIS (AP) Dwight Howard is sidelined again with an ailing shoulder and disgruntled Pau Gasol is back in the Los Angeles Lakers' starting lineup, where he believes he should have been all along.
Howard was scratched from Friday night's game at Minnesota with a sore right shoulder, and he returned to Los Angeles to receive platelet-rich plasma treatments. It's the same injury that kept Howard out of three games in January.
The All-Star center is day to day and planned to rejoin the Lakers in Detroit on Sunday. For a team struggling to scratch back into the Western Conference playoff race, it's the last thing Los Angeles needed.
``We got ourselves in this hole and we're the only ones that can get us out,'' coach Mike D'Antoni said. ``There's going to be some bumps along the way and this is a big one. But we have enough guys where we can win games and we have to do that.''
Howard's arrival from Orlando before the season was hailed as a return to championship contention for a Lakers team that was aging with Kobe Bryant and Gasol still the focal points. But Howard hasn't been his overpowering self very often this season. He was slowed early on while recovering from a back injury that occurred last season and is now hampered by a torn labrum that isn't going away anytime soon.
``It's always going to be there,'' D'Antoni said. ``Even if we shut him down for two months, it's still going to be there. Once he gets hit, it's going to hurt. It's a pain thing.''
Howard is still averaging 16.5 points, 11.9 rebounds and 2.4 blocks per game, but his level of intimidation and athleticism in the paint is not the same.
And the Lakers haven't been the same, either. They entered Friday night's game at 20-26, 10th in the Western Conference, and fresh off a loss to the lowly Suns.
The air of invincibility is not there, and Gasol's waning production is a big part of that. One of the most gifted post players of the last decade has been marginalized since D'Antoni replaced the fired Mike Brown, a process that culminated with Gasol being moved to a reserve role for the first time in his career.
Usually measured and level-headed in his public remarks, Gasol has not hidden his disappointment with D'Antoni's decision.
``Mike's been trying to get his philosophy through us and try to get our team to do it,'' Gasol said Friday. ``At the same time our personnel is a little different than probably what would fit best for that kind of system. It's a work in progress. We're all trying to get a feel for each other. We're all trying to figure things out. We're all trying to win. At the same time, it's been a struggle.''
Gasol is averaging a career-low 12.8 points while shooting a career-worst 44.8 percent. He's been bothered by tendinitis in his knees, bursitis in his left elbow and a concussion.
D'Antoni has been trying to diffuse the situation with his trademark tongue-in-cheek humor.
``I know he wants to start. I've just kind of got to coach the team the way I think is better,'' D'Antoni said. ``It's not a personality conflict. It's not a dance contest. I like him. My dance card's open.''
D'Antoni has been using Earl Clark as the starting power forward alongside Howard. He said he likes how the Lakers start with a smaller lineup.
``I still consider myself one of the best out there,'' Gasol said. ``It's a game that you can't be too self-centered and selfish. You have to put team first and have to make it work somehow. That's what we're trying to do. We're trying to make it work and I try not to be a negative influence at all.''
Timberwolves point guard Ricky Rubio defended his fellow Spaniard on Thursday, joking that if the Lakers don't want Gasol, the Wolves would take him. D'Antoni fired back, saying when Rubio coaches a team he can make those decisions. And Bryant took it a step further when asked about some of the criticism Minnesota All-Star Kevin Love has received this season.
``You can send him our way,'' he said.
Asked what he can do to keep Gasol from letting the disappointment affect his play, D'Antoni cracked: ``Pay him $19 million. Y'all figure it out. That should help. I think it's fine. He wants to play. I've got it. And he's going to play. He's always going to be in there in the end of big games.''
For one night at least, it wasn't an issue. Gasol was in the starting lineup and Bryant said it was imperative the Lakers figure out a way to get him back to being a featured part of the offense.
``We haven't used him to his full potential, everybody knows that,'' Bryant said. ``That's something we're trying to figure out and something we'll have to do a much better job at if we want to reach our full potential as a team. We have to use him more.''

Liposuction Los Angeles | Large Volume Liposuction
Are you size 10 or more? What size where you when you were in high school or before you had children? Do you want to go down 2-3 sizes at one time? Large-volume liposuction makes this possible very safely.
As a Board Certified Los Angeles Plastic Surgeon I have had much experience with the safe removal of large volumes of fat in one session. It is not unusual for most of my patients to go down several sizes, or to be able to fit back into their old clothes. Having fought weight problems all my life, I can't tell you how excited I get when I see my patients come back wearing fitted clothing with a proportionate figure. They deserve it! They feel and look like a million! This boosts their confidence and encourages them to continue to better themselves and to maintain a healthy lifestyle.

2012 Kili Training Pugu Hills
- Details
- Category: Hiking
- Last Updated on Monday, 01 June 2015 11:35
- Written by Pugu Hills
- Hits: 93282
The test hike for students of the International School of Tanganyika from Dar es Salaam is a traditional event at the Pugu Hills Nature Centre.
The school tests some 40 students on fitness but also team work and other skills not only important for conquering the Kilimanjaro Mountain but helpful for future challenges as well. Half of the students will not make it this year and may try again next year to be one of the 20 who will eventualy go for the Mawenzi Peak.
The report of one of the students reminds us about the reward for a bit of sweating around the Pugu Hills. For some a hike in the forest may be more imaginable than jogging along the beach or the streets of Dar es Salaam. Both are having the same effect, you feel great afterwards with a good chance of even enjoying it while meeting yourself and do with your body what it is meant for - to move!
"So last week Friday and Saturday (9 &10 Nov.) we went to Pugu Hills for a practise hike that is meant to give us an idea of what it will be like when we actually climb kili. Sure, the terrain was a bit different because Pugu Hills is more on the dense forest site compared to Mt. Kili, but I thought it was a helpful experience because it helped me figure out some things I need to focus more on when I'm doing my training sessions outside of the Friday meetings.
For one, I need to do more endurance training for my legs especially. It wasn't too bad, but I noticed that my legs got tired sooner than I had expected. Couple that with how my feet were burning in my boots with the sun beating down on us and you don't get a very nice experience. That's something I've begun working on in Running Club (Tuesdays). When I start to get kinda tired, instead of slowing down to power-walk, instead I keep going until I've gone much further than what I thought I could deal with. It has proved very useful, because I find that I can run up to more than half way without stopping if I ignore that desire to just give up.
Second, and this is more of a general observation, I need to increase my intake of water throughout my day. It's easy to get dehydrated and not really notice until it's gotten much worse, and this ends up becoming more of a problem during Kili training and running since I sweat a lot which means water lost without getting replaced.
So, those are my observations thus far for Kili and Running Club. I've made noticeable progress in both activities which has me really excited :)"

Jimmy Choo Replica Bags: Why Are They So Hard To Find?Categories:Other Brands
First of all, those of you who've looked for Jimmy Choo replica bags recently surely noticed that they are very hard to find, just like Coach knockoff handbags. And those of you who wanted to buy Jimmy Choo bags from eBay probably wondered if those bags are actually real or not.
My research showed me that the Jimmy Choo Ramona bag is still one of the most sought-after bags from the brand even if it's like 9 years old! But since you'll find plenty on eBay, I thought I should point out the main differences between a Jimmy Choo Ramona replica and a real one.
How To Spot A Jimmy Choo Replica Ramona Bag
First of all, check both the exterior engraved logo and the interior logo on the inside metal tag. Remember how the "R" in the Prada logo is usually the easiest way to spot a fake Prada bag? Well, when it comes to Jimmy Choo bags, the "H" is usually the most important clue in determining if the bag is fake or not. The cross bar in the H should not be in the center of the letter but higher. The thickness of the letters could also be a giveaway since many fake Jimmy Choo bags have thicker letters than the original.
Then you should check the inside tag to see if it has the signature Jimmy Choo lilac color or if the shade is off. Then check to see if there is an embossed stamp right under the lilac label that says "MADE IN ITALY". This stamp and the inside tag should be on a leather patch that has the same color as the exterior of the bag. The "Made in Italy" stamp should not be embossed directly into the lining! And here's another tip for you: the "M" from "Made" should be placed under the first "M" in "Jimmy".
And speaking about the lining, the Jimmy Choo Ramona tote should be lined with camel/tan moleskin, not a different material.
The hardware engravings should have the same font and thickness as the logo on the clasp closure.
I think that once you check these details it will be easier to tell if you're dealing with a fake Jimmy Choo Ramona bag or not.
I admit I'd love to buy a Jimmy Choo clutch replica myself. They have some really beautiful clutches that we've seen on the red carpet on many occasions and they're not cheap at all. So any tip on where to find a good quality Jimmy Choo replica clutch would be very much appreciated!
I also tried to see what replica sites are still selling replica Jimmy Choo bags right now and I have to tell you, the offer is not great at all! Most of the sites I trust don't even have Jimmy Choo replica handbags, some have just shoes.
Here are some sites that have some Jimmy Choo replica handbags:
Handbagsebuy.com – mostly old styles. Con: when you try to access their Return Policy page, it says "We are sorry, but the page you are looking for cannot be found." So if you come across this site too, I suggest you avoid it.
Clutchknockoff.bid – this is the only place that has some Jimmy Choo replica clutches. The photos look legit. Cons: You can't return the bag if you don't like it and you can only contact them through a contact form which doesn't make them look safe at all.
Ilovebestbags.com: the site is safe but they only have the Jimmy Choo replica Zadie bag.
You will notice that most Google results for Jimmy Choo replica bags will redirect you to other sites that either sell Jimmy Choo knockoff shoes or something else. So as much as I tried to find a trustworthy Jimmy Choo replica site that I could fully recommend, I just couldn't find one.
So yeah girls, unfortunately there aren't many good news for Jimmy Choo replica lovers. At least not for those who are interested in their bags. I guess the situation was much different some years ago. Replica Jimmy Choo shoes are a bit easier to find though. And the fact that there are many Jimmy Choo copies on eBay is both good and bad news. I can't really explain why they are so difficult to find but I'm guessing the demand is just not high enough for replica manufacturers to invest in them.

The Lost BirdBook
"Suspenseful...Solid characters and a keen sense of place...keep this tale humming." -- Publishers Weekly
From the critics

My favorite of the O'Malley/Holden series to date
The trafficing of white-looking Indian babies, murder of priest, nurse, coroner, etc.
I recently discovered Coel and am reading in order. This one has a HUGE surprise. I did not see that coming and am now impatient to get the next book. Coel is getting better with each book and she has added more depth to her characters. Very easy to read, and engaging.
Neither Vicky nor Fr. John knows how much they care about each other. But they know how well they work together, she as an Arapaho laywer, he as the Jesuit priest at the St. Franscis mission on the Arapaho Reservation. Fr. Joseph returns 35 yrs after leaving, and 2 wks later is murdered. Why? Does it have to do with his abrupt departure in 1964, the year the babies died from contaminated water? Sharon Davis, Indian movie star, born that year and adopted into a white family, never told of her Native roots, is sure she's Arapaho, and comes to Vicky for help. At first Vicky doesn't want to help, thinking it's a publicity stunt. Then when Fr. Joseph is murdered, and Sharon, Vicky, and Fr. John are threatened, they begin to take it seriously. Fr. John's superior wants him to leave, thinking he's taking it all too seriously, and that he's getting too involved with Vicky. Finally he insists, sending a young Boston Irishman. Fr. John caves in, and heads to Milwaukee to finish the long-deferred PhD and teach at Marquette, leaving Vicky behind. At the last minute, his boss lets him stay; Vicky leaves, knowing the res. needs him more than it needs her. One of the best in the series.
I really enjoy this author's books about Father John and the Wind River Reservation. While they are not as complex as some other mysteries, like those of Patricia Cornwell or Elizabeth George, they are more involved than say, Dorothy Gilman's books or those of Lilian Jackson Braun. Coel's books are fun mysteries with just enough difficulty in trying to figure out "who did it" that they keep your mind busy trying to find out who the villain is before the book ends! I like the tension of the relationship between Father John and Vicky, the lawyer, as they try to figure out just what they both want out of their friendship. I also like the suspense and the danger that is always implicit in her books. She is a good writer, her plots are well thought out, and her characters are well developed, and their motivations believable.

American Indians introduced tobacco to the Spanish, who in turn introduced it to the rest of Europe in the second half of the 16th century. It was not until the early to mid-19th century, however, that cigar smoking became popular. Cigars made in Havana, Cuba, from Cuban-grown tobacco became the standard of quality, and American, as well as European, markets made Cuba prosperous. In 1857, in an attempt to raise revenue, the United States put a high tariff, or tax, on Cuban cigars. Many cigar factory owners in Cuba continued to flourish despite these new taxes because increasing numbers of Americans began to smoke cigars, and "clear Havana" cigars were the best. To escape the costs of paying the tariff, some Cuban cigar factory owners moved their factories to Florida, New York, and other parts of the United States. They also prospered because their cigars continued to be made by Cuban workers from tobacco leaves imported from Cuba. Vicente Martinez Ybor was one of the cigar factory owners who moved his operations to Key West, Florida. In 1885 he relocated yet again, to an area two miles northeast of Tampa. This area, known as Ybor City, became part of Tampa in 1887.


text: England saved series against New Zealand on the last day of third Test in March [GETTY]New Zealand coach Mike Hesson warned England on Wednesday not to treat his side as the starter before they tuck into the main course of the Ashes series against Australia.England host New Zealand for two Tests, the first at Lord's starting on May 16 and the second in Leeds on May 24, before playing back-to-back Ashes series later this year."These are two hugely important Test matches for us," British media quoted Hesson as saying. "We're making progress as a Test side and certainly won't like to be the entree for the main course later in the season. "We're making progress as a Test side and certainly won't like to be the entree for the main course later in the season" Kiwi coach Mike Hesson "England's record in England in recent times has been outstanding. It's a tough place to tour and we know that we've got to be on the top of our game."The tour also includes three one-dayers before the International Cricket Council's one-day Champions Trophy tournament and ends with two Twenty20 internationals.It comes less than two months after underdogs New Zealand drew a three-Test series against England at home, having got to within a wicket of achieving a remarkable 1-0 series victory over the world's second-ranked side late on the final day."I've tried to forget about that game to be honest, especially the end of it," Hesson said."We felt we dominated but that's the game. These two Tests will be tough in very different conditions. We gained a lot of confidence, but it was a series in isolation and we can't get carried away."England batsman Kevin Pietersen did not play in that third Test because of a knee injury and has been ruled out of this month's two Tests, the one-dayers and the Champions Trophy, which is welcome news for New Zealand. "KP played against us in the first two Tests and missed out on the third and to be fair we weren't unhappy about that," Hesson told Sky Sports News.

Actress Eva Longoria has defended her upcoming TV show "Devious Maids" from critics over allegations the drama perpetuates negative stereotypes of Latino women.
The new series, produced by Longoria and created by "Desperate Housewives" creator Marc Cherry, features five Latinas working as domestic servants in the homes of Hollywood's rich and famous – and although it has yet to premiere in the U.S., the show is already drawing criticism from officials at heritage groups, who claim the storyline is offensive and demeaning to their culture.
Longoria has been bombarded with tweets questioning the show and now she has spoken out to address the controversy in a promotional video.
She says, "When we get any backlash for playing the stereotypical maids, my immediate response is, 'So you're telling me those stories aren't worth telling? That those people are lesser than?'"
The cast members agree, with actress Roselyn Sanchez saying, "We don't think that (by) playing maids we're being demeaning to the Latino culture." And co-star Ana Ortiz insists, "The more that we talk about it, the more people are aware of it, the better."
"Devious Maids" is set to air on cable network Lifetime on Sunday.

Treasurer's Report
During the second year since our conversion from a fiscal year to a calendar year APNA remains financially sound. The audited financial statements for the year ending December 31, 2011 can be found in Appendix E. These reports are consolidated to show the complete APNA financial position to include the APNA Foundation. During the year APNA and the Foundation's funds are accounted for separately. The former are under the supervision of the APNA Board of Directors and the latter are under the supervision the Foundation Board of Trustees. The results show a total positive return from operations of $171,405. Of this amount, $177,682 is attributed to APNA and $(6,277) is attributed to APNF.
In an effort to oversee the integrity of its financial statements and maintain a system of internal control APNA established an Audit Committee made up of Jeanne Clement, Dorothy Hill, Larry Plant, Ben Evans and Avni Cirpili. The committee's responsibilities include reviewing the results of the audited financial statements with the independent auditing firm annually. Last year's audit resulted in an unqualified or "clean" opinion with no material misstatements.
In addition to the statements discussed above, we have prepared the following chart reflecting the revenue, expense and net operating results from July 1, 2004 through December 31, 2011.
The Board of Directors functions as the investment committee for APNA funds. It utilizes the services of an investment manager who invests the funds in accordance with the APNA investment policy. The investment policy calls for a diversification of funds with moneys invested in cash, equities, bonds and precious metals. The following chart shows the results of APNA investments from June 2004 through June 2012. APNA investments have returned a total of $362,054 over that period.
It is my honor to serve as APNA Treasurer and I appreciate the support of staff, the Board and the members who make these positive results possible.

Reuters yesterday declared Adam Sandler the new Tyler Perry. That's not an unreasonable comparison – both churn out product annually or semiannually, and manage to gross their budget back several times over with comedies that leave the critics cold.
But despite the similarities, this seems like a strange point to compare the two movie stars because, unlike his recent collaborations with director Dennis Dugan from Happy Madison Productions, Jack and Jill kind of works.

Ashley Wagner's sour face is already a top Sochi Games meme, so the American figure skater is hoping it can play cupid, too.
Wagner tweeted a picture of a Valentine's Day card Friday similar to the small cards traded in grade school all over her home country, with her face and the message: "You won't be disappointed with your score this Valentine's Day."
Her message to go along with the picture: "From Russia (kind of) with love...Happy Valentine's Day Twitter ! Xoxo"
Wagner's expression (and colorful utterance) became an Internet sensation after she reacted to her short program score during the team figure skating competition.
She quickly became this year's unimpressed McKayla Maroney, the gymnast who became known for her purse-lipped smirk at the London Games.
TiVo said it was the one moment people rewound the most from the weekend, and Facebook said it was one of the most talked about subjects on the social network.

I was browsing eBay when I saw some cake eyeliners by Stargazer.
Stargazer is one of those funky, goth-emo type brands that I think, appeal to a teen/young adult audience, and is very affordable because of it.
I love cake eyeliners! I love the way its like painting, but quite often, although some eyeshadows can be used wet, I find that most will seal up if you constantly apply water to them. There were £2.25 each from eBay.
There are three shades, silver, white and gold:
You can tell this is a real cake liner – when mixed with water, it become like a thick paint:
The colours are pigmented and quite easy to use:
Now, I haven't tested these yet for durability – but I am tempted to use it with something like a sealing gel so that I get maxiumum wear out of it, or a MAC gel mixing medium (Bare Escentuals and Illamasqua also make them).
These come in lots of different colours, black, green, red, blue you name it, they do it! Stargazer is a fun brand, so I am going to check out the other fun colours they do in this cake liner.

Rep. Janice Hahn marked the first week of Women's History Month by speaking about her experience in Congress at a forum hosted by the Library of Congress.
About 75 people sat in the library's wood-paneled Member's Room as Hahn (D-Los Angeles) and Rep. Candice Miller (R-Mich.) answered questions from Library Deputy Director Colleen Shogan about how they got into politics and what Capitol Hill is like for female lawmakers.
First elected in 2010, Hahn has said she is leaving Congress in January because she can have a bigger effect if elected to the Los Angeles County Board of Supervisors.
If Donald Trump or Ted Cruz is at the top of the ticket for the Republican Party come November, Rep. Pete Aguilar (D-Redlands) can take a bit of a breather.
A new analysis by the nonpartisan Cook Political Report, which handicaps U.S. House races, shows seats held by Aguilar, Rep. Jim Costa (D-Fresno) and Rep. Raul Ruiz (D-Palm Desert) were upgraded from "likely" to "solid" Democratic seats, thanks to their heavy Latino population.
Cook defines "likely" seats as those that are not currently competitive but that have the "potential to become engaged."
Few would have ever predicted that California, one of the most reliably Democratic states in presidential politics, would play a major role in the 2016 contest on the Republican side.
And yet, that's exactly what looks to be in store come June 7.
On this week's California Politics Podcast, we take a closer look at the fascinating inside dynamics of how Donald Trump, Texas Sen. Ted Cruz, and Ohio Gov. John Kasich may be clamoring for delegates in some of the most politically liberal parts of the Golden State.
Now that California voters will play a larger role in choosing both the Democratic and Republican presidential nominees, another local politician is calling for his party's candidates to debate in San Bernardino.
First Rep. Pete Aguilar (D-Redlands) sent a letter to the Democratic National Committee last month asking that the city be considered as a host for a scheduled May debate in California between Hillary Clinton and Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders.
Now Paul Chabot, a Republican military veteran who is challenging Aguilar, is asking the Republican National Committee to bring the remaining GOP presidential candidates to San Bernardino, where 14 people where killed last December in the deadliest terrorist attack on U.S. soil since Sept. 11.
Two things should be debunked about Donald Trump: One is that he's the new Arnold Schwarzenegger. Another is that he's continuing what was started by another California governor, Pete Wilson.
I've read and listened to these comparisons in some news media recently and they're simply stretches of baloney.
The General Services Administration will remind government agencies that federal regulations allow employees to use ride-sharing services such as Uber and Lyft on government trips.
The General Services Administration "will continue to monitor trends in the travel industry, including the use" of ride-sharing services, Associate Administrator Lisa A. Austin wrote. "These trends can lead to opportunities for the government to take advantage of new technology and innovation that will increase efficiency and avoid costs."
Each federal agency gets to decide whether its employees can use the services, according to a letter announcing the reminder.
Sen. Dianne Feinstein (D-Calif.) called on the Commerce Department and Federal Emergency Management Agency to provide detailed guidelines for federal agencies to comply with the Obama administration's recent executive order on earthquake preparedness.
In a letter to the agencies, Feinstein also urged them to develop a plan to upgrade seismic-safety standards to encourage that buildings be designed for post-disaster occupancy.
California's 53-member House delegation voted along party lines Thursday on a resolution that allows Speaker Paul D. Ryan (R-Wis.) to file an amicus brief on behalf of the entire House chamber opposing President Obama's immigration orders.
The resolution was approved by a 234-186 vote, with five Republicans voting against.
The Supreme Court is scheduled to hear oral arguments Friday in a case challenging President Obama's immigration executive actions. A decision will probably come right before the court ends its current session in late June.

First off, this is not a post about roleplaying games (my usual fare). This is a post about blogging, specifically blog comments and who owns them.
Who owns the copyrights to comments left on blogs?
The comment author?
The blog author or owner?
You see, I'm currently working on publishing an anthology of roleplaying game blog posts from 2008 and before. The project, called Open Game Table, has been a labor of love for me and (much to my surprise) has benefited greatly from an overwhelming number of supporters and volunteers from the RPG blogosphere. The 48 blog posts that have been selected to be included in the anthology were selected from over 130 posts that were nominated by blog authors and readers. I'm now in the process of doing the layout, design, and editing of the anthology's manuscript and recently the subject of blog comments and who owns their copyrights came up. Two of the contributing blog authors expressed concerns over my use of selected comments in the anthology without the expressed consent of the comment authors. To be completely honest, this struck me by surprise as I had assumed that the blog comments were considered part of the blog article itself (much like an addendum) and were therefor the property of the blog owner. Thus, I had assumed that by obtaining permissions to publish the blog articles in the anthology from the blog authors this would in turn include the comments as well.
Not so fast.
It turns out there is very little in the way of legal precident for this. Go ahead and Google it. You see a whole lot of talk talk talk by blogs cut from all different cloths; but very little actual legal precedent. There's one case I know of that involved a MySpace blogger who refused to remove comments from their blog when the comment authors requested it. But that's about it.
Of course, standard US copyright law clearly supports the author in that [paraphrasing here] "as soon as you write it down it is copyrighted". This would lead you to believe that the author of the comments owns the comments, even though they appear on some other medium they do not own. Some would say it is fairly cut and dry. Others say that its not so simple.
But do they own their comments after they are published?
The comment authors have no control over them, since the blog owner can often delete, edit or otherwise suppress any comment left on their blog. Furthermore, things become much more complicated if you consider third-party applications that republish weblog comments, such as Twitter, Friend-Feed, Google Reader iPage, etc. Disqus does a good job of summing up the real issues here.
This becomes even more bizarre when you consider that many bloggers are running advertising on their websites that is context sensitive (such as Google AdSense; which is in place on this blog). If someone else's comments are helping generate the ads that appear on a blog due to their content, but that person is the owner of those comments, not the blogger, then shouldn't they be also entitled to some royalties or payments from the sale of ads? Surely not.
Where then do you draw the line?
What about then the situation with the anthology I am publishing. Each and every one of the blog authors have signed permissions agreements that stipulate that I have the right to republish their blog post in a printed book. Should I also then seek the permissions of each and every blog comment author whose comment (that adds value to the article as a whole) I may also want to include? What if the comment author used a fake email address or was simply anonymous? What if they were under the age of consent (18)?
These are all issues that bloggers should consider. Many bloggers outside our little RPG blogging community have already considered these issues. You will often find, especially on commercial blogs, a Terms of Service agreement that clearly stipulates the status of the comments left on the blog. I have added one to The Core Mechanic as a result of this minor brouhaha and you can find it in the footer below, or on the comment page. Section 5, Information Rights is the part you will want to pay attention to. I've provided here as well:
"5. Information Rights. The Proprietor does not claim ownership of Content you submit or make available for inclusion on the Service. However, with respect to Content you submit or make available for inclusion on the Service, including without limitation comments you post to the Service, you grant the Proprietor world-wide, perpetual, irrevocable, royalty free, non-exclusive, fully sub-licensable license(s) to use, distribute, reproduce, modify, adapt, publish, translate, publicly perform and publicly display such Content (in whole or in part) and to incorporate such Content into other works in any format or medium now known or later developed."This basically means that the blog owner ("The Proprietor") can do whatever they wish with the comments left on the blog; and the author of the comments can as well. The copyright is, however, still technically owned by author. I've since seen some other blog TOS's where the comments fall under a Creative Commons license; still others I've seen where the comments are released into the public domain.
I would urge anyone who is writing a blog of their own to consider this issue of comment ownership and permissions; if only for a moment. You may never know when, in retrospect, you had wished you had a Comment Policy or some other TOS agreement in place. I'm not a lawyer, and after reading several dozen blogs and other websites about the copyright status of blog comments, one thing is clear to me: this is a very grey area that I have no interest trotting in ... I tend to think that blog comments are functionally the same as addendums to the main blog post and the comment author is giving up their control of the content once they post it on the blog owner's site. But, that's just my opinion - and with regards to Open Game Table - I'm not interested in putting everyone involved in the project at risk of some sort of infringement of copyright permissions simply because I wanted to include a selected number of comments in the Anthology.
In the meantime, I've stripped the manuscript for the blog anthology of all comments for the time being. I'm perfectly happy publishing the book without them included, although I do recognize that blog comments are our currency and often times it is the comments that "make a post", not the post itself. Bahh....

Clothes-recycling is far from an exact science. Garment recyclers must still sort textiles by hand, an inaccurate and time-consuming process that results in significant quality loss and waste. A possible light at the end of the tunnel? A Dutch consortium known as Textiles 4 Textiles has unveiled a new fabric-sorting machine that uses sensors to detect and divide fibers by chemical composition and color. Supported by a grant from Eco-Innovation, a sustainability initiative spearheaded by the European Commission, the technology could make it easier to shred and re-spin this month's castoffs into next season's fashions.
Slated to debut in November after three years of development, the machine is said to be capable of wading through 4,0000 tons of textiles each year. It uses infrared light to identify specific fabric types before harnessing air-stream technology to "blow" each item into separate bins for wool, cotton, polyester, acrylic, and common fiber mixtures.
Slated to debut in November, the machine is said to be capable of wading through 4,0000 tons of textiles each year.
Slated to debut in November, the machine is said to be capable of wading through 4,0000 tons of textiles each year.
Although the sorting machine costs between €200,000 and €500,000 ($250,160 and $62,540), Textiles 4 Textiles says it will pay for itself quickly. Because fabrics are most easily recycled into fabrics of the same type, the value of textile waste increases when the composition of the sorted fraction is known. (To wit, the purer the lot is, the more it's worth.) Fibers derived from the pulped and shredded garments are re-spun into new apparel or household textiles such as curtains and carpets. Shorter fibers can be used for building insulation and automobiles.
"The trick is to develop better techniques to get quality fiber, but the beginning of that good quality is sorting," Sander Jongerius, the project manager at KICI, one of the organizations involved in the creation of the machine, told the International Herald Tribune on Monday. The Dutch charity collects used garments in nearly 1,100 bins throughout the Netherlands, accounting for 30 percent of the 240,000 tons of clothing that the nation throws out every year.
"We do this as business, but also from a sustainable point of view, we see a lot of material is wasted in Holland," Jongerius added.

A former elementary school principal is speaking out against her termination, saying she was fired for going against a school policy that has harmed her kids, CBS 4 Denver reports.
Noelle Roni spoke to CBS 4 Denver after being fired back in the fall from Peak to Peak Charter School in Lafayette, Colo. Roni was with the school for nine years.
The trouble started when the school enacted a policy requiring kids to get their hands stamped if they didn't have enough money in their lunch account.
"The kids are humiliated. They're branded. It's disrespectful. Where's the human compassion? And these are little children," she told CBS 4 Denver.
When she fought with her bosses about this, she said they brushed her off.
Some parents are siding with Roni, saying she is the victim of school politics and workplace bullying.
The school attorney told CBS 4 Denver that Roni's accusations are absurd and her claims are baseless.

I took a class a while ago where I learned to inset a circle into a square using Freezer Paper and Glue. Thought I'd share because this method actually results in a ROUND circle. :lol:
You need background fabric, coordinating fabric, freezer paper, glue (washable, I use both glue stick and Elmer's School Glue), paper scissors and fabric scissors, pencil, ruler, and something to mark a circle.
Step 1: Prepare freezer paper square. Draw the circle in the center. Make sure there is at least 1" between the edge of the circle and the edge of the square.
Step 2: Cut the circle out of the paper.
Step 3: Iron the freezer paper to the wrong side of the background fabric.
Step 4: Mark the circle on the fabric.
Step 5: Cut a circle out of the center, leaving about 1/2"
Step 6: Snip the fabric around the perimeter to just before the pencil mark.
Step 7: Using the fabric glue stick glue the fabric tabs to the paper. Pull them taught.
Step 8: Cut a square of the coordinating fabric larger than the circle.
Step 9: Dab Elmer's school glue (or glue stick) on the fabric tabs and lay the fabric square (fabric side down) centered over the circle.
Step 10: Leave to dry.
Step 11: Carefully pull the tabs off the freezer paper. Make sure to support both sides of the project so you don't distort the fabric or pull the tabs off.
Step 12: Pull the freezer paper off the background fabric.
Step 13: Attach the zipper foot to your sewing machine. Set the piece under the foot so the fabric square is on the bottom. Sew the two fabrics together as close to the drawn circle as the zipper foot allows. Please refer to the picture.
Step 14: Trim the fabric square and attached tabs to about 1/4".
Step 15: Press both sides. (Note: If you want the circle to be truly inset, press as shown. If you want the circle to be raised, press the seam into the circle.)

High temperatures and little breeze did not stop us from hiking the Dragon's Back trail on eastern Hong Kong island on Sunday. Nevertheless, by the time we finished the 2-hour long hike, we were in need food and ice-cold drinks.
Big Wave Bay (Tai Long Wan), a scenic little beach where the trail ended, had a few restaurants scattered between surf shops. Tong Kee, a noodle shop that also rents surf and boogie boards, had a no-frills outdoor eating area that was filling up with beach-goers. Always a good sign. We struck up a conversation with the family that owns the eatery, who told us that Tong Kee has been opened off-and-on for 40 years, long before the other restaurants on the strip moved from town.
You wouldn't think a hot bowl of noodle soup would be good after a long hike in the scorcing sun. But sitting in the shade under a fan and sipping lemon iced tea has a remarkable cooling effect. (AC, you were not missed.) We ordered a plate of stir-fried choi sum (Chinese flowering cabbage) and big bowls of pork and beef tendon soup. What's in the broth, we asked one of the owners, that makes it so flavorful? She brought out the magic spices: bay leaf, star anise, and nutmeg. Also, she added, we cook the beef - lean cuts, fatty cuts, and offal alike) - in it for at least 4 hours.
After lunch, we were rested enough to endure the 3 minute walk to dip our feet in the ocean.

[ Academia ] Intellectual Property: Cyberlaw & the Internet
Why it is relevant for ...
[ Academia ] as a Related Elective for those interested in Technology : This course should be useful for future privacy lawyers as well as all those who will litigate disputes in a world with an increasingly staggering amount of available digital information. The course considers the effect of technological changes on privacy law, e-discovery, legal research and the delivery of legal services.
General course Description:
Legal technology is rapidly transforming both the practice and nature of law. This class seeks to explore both the current trends and the future possibilities of this transformation, as we begin to train the future generation of technology savvy lawyers, and technologists who understand the intricacies and potential of what the law could be. Legal informatics could be defined as a computational perspective of law: where does legal information reside, how is it manipulated, and which algorithms and data structures are used in various legal functions? Note that there are no prerequisites for this class beyond an interest in the subject. There are numerous examples of technologically driven legal transformation. Case law search has moved from hard copy to closed digital systems such as Westlaw and LexisNexis, and into free cloud-based systems such as Google Scholar and Wikipedia. More and more statutes are available online. Changes can be seen in e-discovery, privacy, the delivery of (online) legal services, and the budding legal technology startup community. As a result, questions arise as to the proper statutory and ethical boundaries between humans and machines in implementing legal activities. Beyond the current and near-term technologies, however, are core academic and philosophical questions that will have increasing import as machines gain in sophistication and capability. For example, although the law differentiates between the responsibility assignable to minors compared to adults, we are far from identifying the point at which an agent or robot is morally responsible for its own actions, as opposed to the responsibility being assigned to its creator.
Course Style: A Substantive/ Perspective course looks at law from an external or non-traditional standpoint.
Course Frequency: Offered once a year
