Ohio?s Jackson State Lake Park Proves Bigger Isn?t Always Better

Bigger doesn?t necessarily mean better, especially when it comes to state parks and their scenery. One of the nicest parks for camping and hiking in America is Jackson Lake State Park in Oak Hill, Ohio, which is just 106 acres in size. The serene Jackson Lake is the park?s focal point and offers an ideal [...]

On the Right Path: Scenic and Serene Ocqueoc Falls Offers Biking Satisfaction for Big and Little, Young and Old.

Before our mountain bike ride along Ocqueoc Falls Pathway, we walked over to take a look at the cascade itself, one of only two natural waterfalls in the Lower Peninsula. From the parking lot off M-68, it?s a short stroll to this series of rock ledges where the Ocqueoc River quickly descends six feet.

Amazon, which already had a significant video-on-demand streaming service, launched a free unlimited streaming service for its Amazon Prime subscribers in February. Redbox, which rents physical DVDs through kiosks in supermarkets, convenience stores and other locations, has also announced plans to start a streaming service. On Tuesday, Facebook became the latest to offer streaming of Hollywood titles by announcing an agreement to offer Warner Bros. films to its members.

One World Trekking Offers Mount Toubkal Trek

Mount Toubkal in Morocco at 13,665 feet is the highest point in Morocco, the Atlas Mountains and
North Africa. Surrounded by juniper forests and alpine meadows, Mount Toubkal is the central attraction
of the Toubkal National Park, an area noted for its summer hiking.


From September 7 to 17, 2011, One World Trekking (http://www.oneworldtrekking.com), a 22 year leader in organizing and guiding hiking adventure travel vacations, has confirmed its Moroccan group trip beginning in the colorful capital of Marrakech. Departing from the Pink City the OWT group will be whisked away into the glorious hills of the High Atlas, before hiking into the valleys that surround Mount Toubkal.

Expect some strenuous walking before arriving at the Refuge and enjoy the swapping of trekkers' tales while lounging in the late afternoon sun. The summit day is always an early start and as the group reaches the well known summit at 13,665 feet, they are treated to the vast expanse of the Sahara to the South and the Marrakech plain to the North.

The One World Trekking group will stay in a combination of hotels, mountain refuges and tented camping sites. This is a fully-guided and fully-supported hiking trip, so each member of the group will only need to carry a daypack with packed lunch, water, extra clothes, camera, while all the equipment and meal preparation is organized by our experienced Moroccan staff.

This is a short trip in the land of the Berber people that is not to be missed. For more information you can contact One World Trekking or visit their website http://oneworldtrekking.com/destinations/worldwide-trekking/221-morocco-across-the-high-atlas.html

New light bulb options emerge as technology evolves

Light bulb technology continues to evolve, providing new alternatives as incandescent light bulbs are phased out across the United States. While compact fluorescent light (CFL) bulbs are a popular choice, they're not as energy-efficient as LED light bulbs. Nor do most CFL bulbs fare well in rendering color as accurately as incandescent bulbs, which score a perfect 100 on the Color Rendering Index (CRI).

Many CFL bulbs, even when described as "warm white," emit an odd spectrum that can be greenish and off-putting. Disposal of CFL bulbs is another problem, since they contain mercury and are not supposed to be put into ordinary household trash. A few other options are worth considering.

Baked Farro Risotto

Here's something I don't think I've ever mentioned. And it may sound a bit strange. We have heat here in our apartment, we might even have air-conditioning. Never used either. I think what may have happened is this. We didn't use heat the first year we lived here, not sure why exactly - warm year? Beyond that, every time I thought about turning on the heat, I would consider the dust and god-knows-what-else accumulating in the vents and ducts. I would promptly put on a third sweater instead of reaching for the dial. The office has a fireplace, so I sit near that quite a bit. But the kitchen gets quite cold. So, when the weather cools off, I tend to bake. The oven keeps the kitchen cozy, and now and then I stand in front of it, crack the door, and let the hot air flow up under my sweater to warm me up. I baked this farro "risotto" last night instead of cooking it stove top, and it worked out nicely - lemon-kissed, bright tomato sauce, lots of Parmesan, and chopped fresh oregano. I use the term risotto loosely here :)

Baked Farro Risotto Recipe

So, here's what you do. Start the grains on the stove top, add all the liquid at once, cover, and transfer to the oven for the better part of an hour. If you have a medium/large oven-proof casserole, like a Le Creuset, you can go start to finish in the same pot/casserole. Although, I can't remember if the knobs on the lids of Le Creuset can handle a 400F oven? It may be too hot - you may still need to use foil to cover the pot.

Calling this a risotto is a bit of a stretch, it's not particularly creamy or loose. It won't run across a plate. But when I make it on a stove top, I use a risotto technique, so that's sort of how I think of it. If you think you might like a more oozy, cheesy version, use small cubes of good mozzarella in place of the Parmesan in the recipe below, or experiment with a blend. I mean, it's cheese - you can make it as cheesy or un-cheesy as you like. I was after something with cheese, but not over-the-top decadent here.

I walk. I walk a lot. Even before moving to New York, my preferred mode of transportation has always been my legs?and I lived in Los Angeles for decades, where the Missing Persons song is right: ?No One Walks in LA.? So when I was pregnant, I researched strollers like a fiend. I knew that when my son was born I needed an effective and reliable mode of transportation for him. Between a baby carrier?the Bjorn was my pick, though if I were to do it again I?d opt for the Ergo?and a stroller, I figured we were set.
