Topic of the Day: Lasagna. My recipe is to use the recipe on the noodles package or the ricotta cheese container...and I do NOT use cottage cheese like my sister used to. Then, I just double everything except the noodles. :)

Less hectic but still a workday.

I'm wondering what kind of camera DR Doug has--those photos are spectacular!

I was also wondering about the camera.
DR KevinH and DRJane: I didn't use anything special. I usually use my Fuji FinePix F200 but I left the battery in the charger at home so I had to use my little Toshiba Camileo S30 camcorder, which also takes still pictures, although the pictures would have been better (especially at large size) if I'd been able to use the Fuji.

DR Doug R - thank you for the photos of your visit to Barcelona. My sister's genealogy research has recently revealed to us that we have a first cousin in Spain.
And I meant to tell you that my husband had a similar experience in Reims to the one you described the other day. Our first morning there he left our hotel in search of someplace to get a carry-out breakfast for us and got lost. He was not properly oriented when he left the hotel and he found that the streets change names from block to block. He finally stumbled onto a visitors' center near the cathedral and they gave him a handy dandy map. He made the same comment you did about the city being smaller than he thought.
DR Ginny: Yes, it's easy to get disorientated when arriving somewhere new and unfamiliar. One of worst times for me in getting lost was in Belgrade, Serbia where street signs are in the Cyrillic script and although I had a map, it wasn't much use because the map had street names in our familiar Latin alphabet :)

Good morning to all

Does chicken marsalla count? it comes with pasta of your choice. (usually)

I've just received the UK Eureka 'Masters of Cinema' Blu-ray of TOUCH OF EVIL. I've always liked the film - long before it became newly "discovered". This set provides five variants of the film; the original version, the preview version and the 1998 reconstruction, in full frame and widescreen versions (the preview is only the widescreen version). It also has an excellent 56 page booklet. The highly detailed, heavily contrasted black and white photography looks wonderful. I like the reconstructed version apart from the fact that it omits Henry Mancini's title music, which I think does add a lot to the opening, even if it wasn't what Orson Welles intended.
-
La dee DAH da da da.
As Madame Rose is wont to say.
-
I forgot to say Happy Birthday to Fr RICHARD yesterday.....so Happy Birthday + one day!
-
TOD:
I like pasta alfredo....particularly with chiken.
-
TAR was okay last night.....very nice scenery......and results were okay. BUT I think the winning team has now made tactical errors in TWO legs of the race.
-
So how was the actor who extended the invitation to the show?
-
May CCBB will come to my house today.

And the word of the day is: FASCICLE!

Thanks for letting me know. The photos were really great!

I am off to do some Monday shopping. Hopefully the crowds will be thin.

Nice new avatar DR MATTHEW - or has it been up for awhile and I missed it?

Good question.

A month or so ago I found that iTunes was not accepting CD album artwork when I copied and pasted it into the info box. I'd never had any problem doing that before. I asked iTunes support who emailed to say I should uninstall iTunes, install latest Windows updates and reinstall iTunes and that all my saved CDs would remain in place. I did all that and although I had concerns that all my CDs would end up being deleted, they were still there when I reinstalled. However, I still can't add new artwork. Looking at iTunes discussions forums it seems that quite a lot of people have the same problem but no-one seems to have a solution - niether apparently does iTunes.
-
Good morning, all.
-
Page two!
-
tod: Pasta, the forbidden fruit. Linguine with clams, hold the linguine, has become my favorite dish. I also love pasta with a garlicky pesto and maybe some chicken. Butternut squash stuffed ravioli with brown butter sauce. You name it.
-
Monday morning greetings! We were awakened today by our lawn guys, who were here to do away with the blanket of leaves covering our back yard. They did a great job and finished just in time to avoid the rain.
-
Thank you to DRs George and JRand for the birthday wishes for Richard!
-
And the word of the day is: FASCICLE!
Cherry's always been my favorite flavor.
-
Listening to Sassy's collaboration with Sergio. The two didn't get along very well but the album is fantastic IMHO.
-
DR DOUG maybe that's one of the secrets that Steve took with him.

DR JMK did you get my email RE:TV Guide Fashion Layout?

DR JMK did you get my email RE:TV Guide Fashion Layout?
Yep, but I have to find my copy, so you'll have to be patient. :)
-
Good Morning!
I'm up, I'm up... And it's my second Monday in LA!
-
As for the Topic of the Day:
Gnocchi - Well-made gnocchi are hard to find, but when I find them... :) And usually topped with a basic tomato or marinara sauce, or bolognese.
Gnocchi alla Romana - This is version made with semolina, formed into a roll, sliced and then baked or broiled. Oh, and there's lots of cheese in the dough. -With a nice ragu.
Gnocchi gnudi - Yeah, more pasta dumplings, but these are ricotta-based, and a lot of time they're also made with spinach. -With pesto or just butter and parmesan.
And I have to say that a big of bowl of spaghetti and meatballs still provides lots of "comfort".
-
bk - It sounds like you had "gemelli" pasta that was served with chicken, mushrooms, etc. *Gemelli is Italian for "twins" since the pasta looks like twin tubes of pasta twisted together (when, in reality) it's just one twisted piece of pasta.
-
Belated happy birthday to Richard!!!!
-
I was out of town much of the day yesterday, so must now go try to catch up a bit.
(Is New Jersey considered out of town?)
-
And now it's time for a walk and some coffee, but not necessarily in that order.
Laters...
-
Had a shooting incident just round the corner from me a couple of days ago. Someone in the street fired a gun at the window of a house. Police came around but no-one had been hurt. The people who were living in the house who were targeted have now moved out. And I thought I lived in a quiet neighbourhood!
-
DR DOUG maybe that's one of the secrets that Steve took with him.
That would be unfortunate. I was hoping for a solution.
-

I ain't no doctor - I ain't got no patients.

He was okay.

I've been up since eight, but refused to get out of bed till nine.

It is, if you live in Texas.
-
Two and 1/2 days worth of postings to catch up on, but I am now caught up!
-
I am still considering what to add with THE BLACK ZOO for you DR MBARNUM.
-
JMK, Gary Gulman is indeed very handsome. I would certainly cast him in any production.
I checked out his website, also. There was a tab marked "Dates." I clicked on it, but it wasn't what I was hoping for.
-
BLACK ZOO just by itself would still make me very happy! Thanks JRand!
-
But JRand, I must apologize for SCIENCE FICTION DANCE PARTY....I listened to it this weekend, also...but it is now in my donation pile.
The music was great, but why did they need to add in all those voices, screams, and monster noises? It just ruined it all. I wanted music, only.
-
Sunday I took my grand-neice and nephew, Taylor and Ben, to downtown Portland to see the puppet show PINOCCHIO.
It was fun, if not a bit manic.
-
I think my sense of direction is really l getting worse as I get older. I had a heck of a time remembering the way back to the parking lot that we had parked at, which was some blocks away from the theatre. However, Ben and Taylor (5 and 10 years old, respectively) were able to locate it without any trouble.
Of course, finding the theatre in the beginning was also a chore. I kept thinking it was on Salmon St, when it was actually on Broadway.
Benny suggested that I had thought it was on Salmon Street because I was hungry for some salmon. :D
-

That isn't possible.

And that was the CD and not a date, right? Just asking.

JohnG, you are catching on well....or did Elmore ask you to carry on for him in his absence?
-
Just ordered the 25th Anniversary Edition CD and DVD/Blu-ray of Phantom of the Opera from amazon.co.uk. They were released today in the UK, but won't be released here until February! The article on broadwayworld.com said that the blu-ray was region free. I hope that's correct!

I find the same thing. I never used to have trouble remembering where I left the car but now I keep having to search for it. There's a wonderful system in one of the new malls near me where you simply enter your licence plate number onto an electronic display and it shows you where your car is. That only works of course if you can remember your licence plate number :)
-

I guess I was channeling him in his absence.

I didn't mind ALL of the sound effects - but then I wasn't really having a Dance Party.

I am reading a book that MR BK might be interested in....
BOOK ROW - the history of the used/rare booksellers on 4th Avenue in JoseVille - AKA New York City.

From DR Jose:
DR Jane - Enjoy your heated home!
Thank you though at the moment the heater is off while they finish the work.

From DR Jose:
DR Jane - My friend who accompanied me to the concert earlier today gave me a custom assortment of See's. Just thought you'd like to know that.
Thank you. I do appreciate knowing this. :)

I carry my hotel info with me in case I need to get a cab back. When I'm alone I do small circles looping back to the hotel & slowly expand my area as I become oriented to the neighborhood. At least I do this when I can.

I was thinking about ordering the Blu-ray/DVD combo from England because I at least have a region code-free DVD player, but Amazon.co.uk says that it's Region B/2. I don't know if it's just a general thing that they put on their listings or if it really does have a region code. Anyway, I'm ordering it. If nothing else, I can play the DVD. :D

It's interesting when things are released here vs. England.
Phantom of the Opera at The Royal Albert Hall CD:
England: today, November 14 (for only £8.99...or approximately $14.30)
USA: February 2, 2012 (for $26.99)
Phantom of the Opera at The Royal Albert Hall Blu-Ray and/or DVD:
England: today, November 14
USA: not yet determined (but it's at least possible to pre-order it)
Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows, Part 2:
USA: November 11
England: December 2!
Torchwood: Miracle Day (season 4):
England: today, November 14
USA: "Sign up to be notified when this item becomes available" :P

Blu-ray forum says it's region free and I'm sure they are right. Amazon simply give the code of the country it's issued in.

We are under a tornado watch until 9pm, which is why I've decided to stay home instead of running errands. If the sirens go off, I want to be near our basement!

BK,
When can we expect the next episode of OUTSIDE THE BOX?
I thought that it was going to be a weekly series.
How many episodes are there?
-
No storms here yet.
-
Good Afternoon!
Well... Just in case any DR has been wondering: FedEx's LapNet system is not Mac-compatible - no matter what the signs and managers may tell you. -And the LapNet program is also a "corporate virus".
-
BK,

I believe a new episode of "Outside the Box" will be "released" every two weeks. Thus making it a bi-weekly series.

DR JOSE did you see DR DOUG R's question about ITunes?
DR JRand - Yes, I did.

I ordered the new DRAGON software that is voice activated.....we shall see if it works.

DR Doug R - Is the issue only a problem on the PC version of iTunes? I haven't noticed any issues with my Mac (version), however... I do get tired of the "No Artwork Found" message even after I have added my own artwork.
Sorry I can't be of more help right now.
-
However, yet another new version of iTunes was just released, so...
-
And now I need to finish up another chart or two for tonight's rehearsal.

How can one tell if Yogurt has gone bad. I bought a couple of containers the other day at the store, but I didn't notice that they were still in the bag rather than the refrigerator for about six hours. Considering all of the problems I have been having with my bladder and other things, I really would rather not eat something that might make me sick. But I hate to throw away edible food if I don't have to do so.
Is this the same as asking how you know if sour cream has gone bad?

DR TCB - Yogurt is somewhat indestructible. If it has truly gone bad there will be a "gasp" of air when you open the containers. Otherwise, it is like sour cream.
However, if you are feeling "uncomfortable", then: "When in doubt, throw it out."
-
And I finished two more charts... And just three more to go. :)
-
And now I'm going to get ready to head to rehearsal. -I have to run a few errands on the way, so...

DR's Doug & MBarnum, I'm glad you enjoyed the short dog clip.
-
DougR, I forgot to mention how much I enjoyed your photos from this weekend! Such a beautiful place!
Thanks. So glad that everyone liked them.

DR TCB I must get one of those GPS key chains. Sounds like just what I need.
-
BK,
When can we expect the next episode of OUTSIDE THE BOX?
I thought that it was going to be a weekly series.
How many episodes are there?
New episodes every two weeks - season one (like most web series) is comprised of six episodes, so will air over a twelve-week period. Then there's a hiatus, we shoot season two, and that goes up sometime in March or April.
-
Did the four-mile jog, had a sandwich and no onion rings, picked up a package and an important envelope, went to the editing room, and am back but will be on my way to LACC shortly. One of our LACC gals just informed everyone she wouldn't be with us on Saturday - she's the gal we're "sharing" with another show there - apparently she WILL be there for that rehearsal but will miss ours - and this is the one gal out of the three who needs the rehearsal the most - so I've written the faculty about it and we'll see what happens - we have a fourth LACC gal who's covering all three roles and will play two of the three tracks at the matinees, so she can do it, but I'm not happy that this gal thinks she can do this.

I don't think they were very expensive either, Doug.

I won't be at rehearsal on Saturday either.

DR Jane (and anyone else) do you still watch UNFORGETTABLE (Tues- CBS)?
I saw a preview for tomorrow night's show. And the guest star is Marilu Henner.
I think that is totally awesome.
UNFORGETTABLE is about a woman who can remember every detail about pretty much every day of her entire life. She sees something once and she remembers it.
I first heard about this phenomena when watching THE VIEW. There were a few people (there are not many in the world who have this) on the show who had this. And Marilu Henner is one of them. I think it is very neat that she will be on the show. I wonder if they quizzed her about what kinds of things her "powers" can do and not do.
-
IT was very mild here today (17C or high 60sF). Only thing was it was quite windy.

Is this the same as asking how you know if sour cream has gone bad?
I find the little ones can last even past their expiration date. The way i see if they have gone bad is that it curdles. I've had this happen even on yogurt that is supposed to be good (although i've only seen this happen in the individual packets).
I think you could tell by tasting it if it was truly bad. It would not taste good.
I have a problem with sour cream too! I usually just go by a) the expiration date b) if it gone moldy.

I bought a couple of containers the other day at the store, but I didn't notice that they were still in the bag rather than the refrigerator for about six hours. Considering all of the problems I have been having with my bladder and other things, I really would rather not eat something that might make me sick. But I hate to throw away edible food if I don't have to do so.
Is this the same as asking how you know if sour cream has gone bad?
I find the little ones can last even past their expiration date. The way i see if they have gone bad is that it curdles. I've had this happen even on yogurt that is supposed to be good (although i've only seen this happen in the individual packets).
I think you could tell by tasting it if it was truly bad. It would not taste good.
I have a problem with sour cream too! I usually just go by a) the expiration date b) if it gone moldy.
Thanks Jose and Jennifer. I think I may risk it. It wasn't like it was the middle of summer here.

I won't be at rehearsal on Saturday either.
Slacker.
;)

DR TCB I must get one of those GPS key chains. Sounds like just what I need.
I don't think they were very expensive either, Doug.
Okay, maybe they are more expensive than I thought they were.

But I guess it is all a matter of prospective. After all, I am worrying about throwing away a seventy-five cent container of yogurt!

DR Jane (and anyone else) do you still watch UNFORGETTABLE (Tues- CBS)?
I saw a preview for tomorrow night's show. And the guest star is Marilu Henner.
I think that is totally awesome.
UNFORGETTABLE is about a woman who can remember every detail about pretty much every day of her entire life. She sees something once and she remembers it.
I first heard about this phenomena when watching THE VIEW. There were a few people (there are not many in the world who have this) on the show who had this. And Marilu Henner is one of them. I think it is very neat that she will be on the show. I wonder if they quizzed her about what kinds of things her "powers" can do and not do.
I'm tempted to watch the episode with Marilu Henner. Will she also have the same abilities? We stopped watching half way into the 2nd or 3rd episode.
Of the new shows we are only watching PERSON OF INTEREST, TERRA NOVA, & A GIFTED MAN. We think Person of Interest is top notch. While not great we enjoy Terra Nova. Gifted Man has some excellent episodes & others that annoy us. Keith really doesn't like the dead ex-wife. I don't know how much longer we will be watching it.

Mikey, have you seen that weird Heineken commerical? It is kind of like a mini-Bollywood movie.

You meant Jennifer. I was just about to respond.

TCB how did the yogurt taste?
-
I may give up on GRIMM, even though it is filmed in Portland. I thought last Friday night's bee episode was pretty stupid. Still, they did eat Voodoo Doughnuts last week.

My apologies to Jennifer. Too many J's on this damn board.

TCB how did the yogurt taste?
Give me a minute. I don't move very fast, and the fridge is six feet away.
-
TCB how did the yogurt taste?
It tastes like a creamsicle.
-
LOL-Is that what it is supposed to taste like? I think you would know by the taste if it was safe to eat.

Yes, it was Orage Cream. Lucky I didn't mix it up with the other one. That one is chocolate.

I hope my rudeness didn't cause Jennifer to leave. If you are going to be confused with someone, Jane is a pretty good choice.
-
Time for Nicky and I to go to bed. Football is ready to start, and it is cheaper to watch it in bed with the electric blanket than to watch it in the living room and heat the whole damn apartment.
-
G'night!

;D I'm positive you didn't drive Jennifer away. Thank you for the compliment.

Did they have to wait in line for 45 minutes to get them?

Computers are great, aren't they? Until they crash.
-
Did your computer crash? :(
-
I've had computer troubles for a couple of days.
-
Then you must have some COMPUTER VIBES!!!!!!!

I'm now off to my parents' house. My mom's making chili and cornbread. I'm sure that it'll be quite tasty!
Be back later.
But before I go...
-
PAGE SIX DANCE!!

I can't believe the heater guy has to return tomorrow. I'm not sure what he is doing. The plumber is supposed to come as well. We have full functioning heat today which is probably why Sherlock decided to hang out on the deck tonight.

Great story, family rescues dog about to die & the dog saves them from a prowler in their house.

Watching "Little Shop of Horrors" for the first time since I saw the movie at the theater when it was reelased. I'm really enjoying it more on TV than I did in the theater

Hello, everyone! I am back from Hilton Head. We played to small houses, but the response was quite good. I have lots to say about Hilton Head, the show, and a pissy queen director in residence at the theatre who made life difficult for the men in the cast when he showed up to direct THE DROWSY CHAPERONE and threw our leading actor out of "his room" because the theatre did our housing carelessly. We had to move David into our residence on Friday night, and the brouhaha created tension for all the men having this jerk and his little dog too invading their party. I think the sonofabitch should have checked into a hotel until our show finished and we left and, to add insult to injury, the pissy thing didn't come to see our show. We all hate her.
-
Still and all, glad it went well, Larry.

Hi all. I've been doing a lot of stuff lately. I decided to move my books from the office computer to my home computer and I'm behind in entering all the info into the computer, so I'm working on catching up. It's kept me quite busy
-
Work has also been busy. A few things that have happened that have made me think I need to change the way I do things....but I don't, I just needed to refocus and not think about what everyone else is doing etc. Details are boring, but I'm back on track and feeling great about it
-
Getting back on track. That must feel good, CillaLiz. Wish I felt I were.

Today one of my clients stopped in. She had to leave and go to Guatemala and come back through the embassy. She's married to a citizen and has been working for a long time to get her permanent residency. Many people have to stay in Guatemala for several years before they get their visa and can come to be with their families. I got her back here in 4 months. She was thrilled and so was I. Today she brought me a really cool hand carved wooden cat from Guatemala. I love it!
-
John G. I just decided to refocus on what I'm doing and want to do and shut out the noise of what others are doing and it's working
-
I'm watching Diane Sawyer's story about Gabby Giffords. It's totally amazing how far she's come in 10 months. What an inspiration
-
I felt bad for JR on DWTS tongiht. He did 3 dances on a twisted (sprained) ankle. OUCH! I voted for him 5 times. I usually don't vote, but I don't want to see him go
-
Welcome home, DR Elmore!
-
Getting back on track. That must feel good, CillaLiz. Wish I felt I were.
I'm beginning to wonder where the track IS...
-
But I'll worry about that tomorrow - 'night!

Thank you. Think I'll do likewise.

Here are sme photos from the show; they're dress rehearsal shots. The little girl Broderick isn't in the photos because she was still at school. sme of the costumes changed over the course of the week as well; the shoes are all too n9ce for Appalachian dirt poor mners, farmers, etc.
this is the New Year Carol at the end of the show.
-
This is Rob McCaffrey singing "I Wonder as I Wander" during the sequence when
Mary Joy Linn gives birth.
-
This is our wonderful boy Jarod singing "How Far Is It To Bethlehem?" Not a dry eye in the house. Michael Hicks and David Lutken accompanied him on harmonica and autoharp.
-
This is "The Christ Child's Lullaby," begun by Joy Linn and Della (Julie Foldesi on guitar).
-
And, for some comedy relief, our moonshiner Wilmer (Steve McIntyre) and the men doing "Good Old Mountain Dew."
-
The West Virginia Mine Disaster, in which Mamie (Barbara Brown) tells her nephew about her husband's death.
-
Julie Foldesi leading "Go Where I Send Thee."
-
Great Photos Elmore thanks for sharing.
-
Great photos earlier, Doug
-
I'm all caught up on emails and I'm off to bed. First thing tomorrow, the post office.
I'll begin posting about my week in Hilton Head while I catch up on last week's posts.
-
Back from rehearsal - rough tonight - which is what happens sometimes after a day off when no one thinks they have to run their stuff.
-
Welcome sixty GUESTS!
-
I'm really tired.
-
Good Evening!
I'm really tired too.
-
...And, yes, it was a "rough" rehearsal tonight. Myself included. Now that more of my book and charts are in order, it's just a matter of getting my head in order now too. -But as soon as I got back "home", I updated two of my charts and downloaded the last bit of music that I still needed to procure. And I believe I will be turning in shortly. Very shortly.
-
DR elmore - Welcome Back! Welcome Home!
*I actually think I know the resident director of whom you spoke. Sorry he ended up throwing such a wrench into your works.
-
And...
Yes...
My brain is officially fried.
Goodnight.
-
Fried brain - yum.

Welcome back, Larry! Did you get my e-mail about last week's "Grimm"?
