TO WATCH DOWNTON ABBEY season 4 episode one from the US.....This will not be released in the US until January 2014.....You will need to have a UK IP Address.
You can also use this site which is completely free to set up a UK vpn account, which someone just told me about.
http://www.ukipvpn.com/
or this site
http://www.expatshield.com/
Follow the sites directions to set up your connection, then click on the Downton
Abbey link below:

and use this zip code SW181AA
and you can watch from the US...... I watched last nite twice....the first episode of season 4 is fabulous.
You can also use this method to surf UK sites that you otherwise can not reach.

VPN also has a Canadian link if you want to watch Canadian TV online.

dial the number and ask for the PRESIDENT's OFFICES......and there if you
are lucky you will find the last vestiges of customer service in america!
Tonight, I found out that GOOGLE........has renamed my town. OMG!

Hi Deborah,
I apologize for the misunderstanding on my part in our previous email exchange.
I have attempted to change your profile to say Holland, but it keeps reverting to Village Shires. We use Google Maps for towns and cities, and when I went to check Google Maps, it lists Holland in Village Shires, PA (see attached screenshot). Therefore, our system will not allow us to list you as being from Holland, PA. I'm sorry for this inconvenience. Please let me know if you would like it to say Churchville or Village Shires, since they are the only two areas closest to you that Google Maps will permit.
Kind Regards,
Emily G

So I went to google maps to try to report the problem.....and yes, there were direction how,
but all led me to a circuitous go screw yourself roundabout.

so tonite I wrote to their press department, that if they do not fix this....I am going
public.....I mean really public, not my blog which probably 2 people read....but will write
to anyone and everyone that will listen.
GOOGLE is an advertising company....NOT AN AUTHORITY. suddenly anything that they publish
is fact..........that is scarey considering.....that they have renamed my town.....to a condominium......and have my town residing in that condominium complex....don't you think?
I would love to hear your thoughts on this? It disturbs me, greatly!
oh so tomorrow, guess who I will be calling........1-800 operator to get the google presidents office......bet his customer expediters will fix this mess.........till tomorrow....
smiles,
DC

Please come if you are in the King of Prussia/ Plymouth Meeting area it should be interesting.
The contents are first and that starts at 4pm....and the real estate will follow.
Hoping the house sells so I can get this all behind me....sooner rather than later.
Wishing you all a great summer day.....

Mexican Black Bean Soup with Chipotle and Sausage
It is cold and damp outside, fall has come and it is here too stay. Leaves falling everywhere, and the winter storm damage of last year is still being repaired, here.
It was a busy summer for me, soaking up all the rays of sunshine I could find, doing my storm claim, getting quotes and contractors and finally the work has begun. The house got painted, the garage doors were replaced, the back door is almost finished...the electric box still needs to be repaired. Broken tree limbs were cut down and made into firewood for what I believe will be another record cold winter with lots more snow.
So....today, I started my first pot of homemade soup. I try to make 3 or 4 for the winter months storing the extra in smaller containers in my freezer. Today's soup is my version of Mexican Black Been soup. Here is the general recipe...feel free to add in other things which will interest your tastebuds.
1. one bag of dried black beans soaked overnight in six cups of water, bring to a boil and simmer for 2 hours with one large dried chipotle pepper,seeds removed. Drain.
2. one large onion and 3 cloves of garlic and half of a large carrot, chopped...and sauteed in olive oil, until lightly browned. Remove and put aside.
3. brown 1-1/2 lbs of sausage lightly in olive oil. use any combination or all, smoke sausage, andouli, chiorizio.... set aside.
4. when bean are cooked......drain taking the dried pepper and cutting it. put drained beans, pepper onions, garlic, carrot mix in large stock pot, with the cooked sausages. Add 64ozs. of chicken stock plus 2 tbsp of tomato paste. Bring to a boil...and then simmer. Add the following spices to taste:1 tsp cumin, 1tsp mexican oregano, 2 tbsp cilantro, 2 tbsp lime juice, sea salt and ground black pepper. And if you like very spicy a chopped jalepeno or two. Simmer for an hour or two...
5. Let soup cool. Remove sausages and cut into bite sized pieces....put aside. Puree beans and soup broth in a food processor. Put puree back into pot, and add sausage pieces, Stir til blended.
6. Serve soup with garnish of chopped tomatoes, chopped onions, chopped jalepenos and sour cream....YUMMMMMMMMM.
Hope you enjoy........
Smiles to you all,
DC

keirsey temperament sorter
check out this site.........
here are my results.....which were not a surprise.......
Custom Keirsey Temperament Report for: deborah
Your Keirsey Temperament Sorter Results indicates that your personality type is that of the
Artisans are the temperament with a natural ability to excel in any of the arts, not only the fine arts such as painting and sculpting, or the performing arts such as music, theater, and dance, but also the athletic, military, political, mechanical, and industrial arts, as well as the "art of the deal" in business.
Artisans are most at home in the real world of solid objects that can be made and manipulated, and of real-life events that can be experienced in the here and now. Artisans have exceptionally keen senses, and love working with their hands. They seem right at home with tools, instruments, and vehicles of all kinds, and their actions are usually aimed at getting them where they want to go, and as quickly as possible. Thus Artisans will strike off boldly down roads that others might consider risky or impossible, doing whatever it takes, rules or no rules, to accomplish their goals. This devil-may-care attitude also gives the Artisans a winning way with people, and they are often irresistibly charming with family, friends, and co-workers.
Artisans want to be where the action is; they seek out adventure and show a constant hunger for pleasure and stimulation. They believe that variety is the spice of life, and that doing things that aren't fun or exciting is a waste of time. Artisans are impulsive, adaptable, competitive, and believe the next throw of the dice will be the lucky one. They can also be generous to a fault, always ready to share with their friends from the bounty of life. Above all, Artisans need to be free to do what they wish, when they wish. They resist being tied or bound or confined or obligated; they would rather not wait, or save, or store, or live for tomorrow. In the Artisan view, today must be enjoyed, for tomorrow may never come.
There are many Artisans, perhaps 30 to 35 percent of the population, which is good, because they create much of the beauty, grace, fun, and excitement the rest of us enjoy in life.
Artisans at Work
Artisans seek to make an impact upon the organizations where they work and upon society at large. Their alertness to current realities, the joy they take in variation, and their tendency to follow their instincts to 'what works' make them good troubleshooters and negotiators, talented performers and craftspeople and excellent leaders in all kinds of emergencies and chaotic situations.
Your heightened aesthetic sense can lead you to craft and perfect whatever work you take on. As a result, in your ideal job you would likely have the freedom to gather observations, collections of facts, and sets of skills in order to do your work. You can be thrilled when you slip through a window of strategic opportunity that colleagues or the competition haven’t yet seen.
