The reports of Mitsubishi's death have been greatly exaggerated. Not only did the company ...
Indianapolis Motor Speedway has apparently firmed up plans with Crown Royal for the whiskey to be the title sponsor of next year's NASCAR Sprint Cup Series Brickyard 400. A press conference to confirm the news is scheduled for Thursday.
The official name of the NASCAR event, which will have Grand-Am and the Nationwide Series on the bill along with the Sprint Cup race, has not been confirmed.
The Sprint Cup race earlier this year at Richmond International Raceway was called "Crown Royal presents the Matthew and Daniel Hansen 400," which honored the U.S. Marine Corps as part of online fan voting.
Crown Royal last month announced the impending end of its sponsorship of Matt Kenseth's car at Roush Fenway Racing after this season. That's part of a change in sponsorship philosophy for the company.
The Brickyard 400 has not had a title sponsor since Allstate left after the 2009 race.

Baltimore County police have charged two men in connection with the murder of a 27-year-old Towson man.
Police said they found Al-Sawab Sawab on Nov. 25 suffering from multiple gun shot wounds at his residence in the 7000 block of Lachlan Circle. He later died from his injuries at Sinai Hospital.
Kenneth Johnson, 22, and Deonte Robinson, 18, were charged in connection with the death, according to a police statement.
Police said Johnson and Robinson went to Sawab's apartment to buy marijuana. A confrontation ensued when Johnson did not have enough money to pay Sawab, and Robinson pulled out a handgun, according to the statement. Robinson allegedly fired at Sawab, and continued to do so as the victim attempted to flee.
Johnson and Robinson took the marijuana with them when they left the scene, police said.
Johnson, of the 1200 block of Walters Avenue in Baltimore, was arrested on January 15 and charged with one count of first-degree murder and one count of use of a firearm during a felony crime, according to the statement. Police obtained a warrant for Robinson, of the unit block of Polaris Court in Parkville, on Jan. 23.
A booking photo for Robinson was not immediately available.

While taking my time getting the motor back together, I decided to try and get some of the smaller stuff checked off my to do list. The rear tire has been installed, and while doing so I noticed the bearings were locked solid. No movement at all. I tried to remove them by my usual method with a hammer and drift, but no go. Heat and penetrating fluid didn't make a difference. I found a thread on the sr500 forum that said to use a 5/8" concrete anchor bolt as a blind bearing puller. For less than $2, why not right?
Shove the bolt and sleeve through the bearing leaving the nut and washer facing out. Grip the sleeve with a pair of channel locks or vice grips and tighten the nut. Once things are nice and snug tap the bolt from the other side with a drift until they drop out. The first bearing on the brake side came out nice and easy, but when attempting to remove the second one, the sleeve got tweaked. Luckily I bought two.
I decided to try and pull two from the sprocket side at a time and see if that would be easier. They slid out like butter. That gave me enough room to knock the stubborn brake side one out with a drift.
All done with new bearings and seal from All Balls. Notice my 5 gallon pickle bucket under the wheel? It has a fancy
Irwin tool organizer
that was gifted to hold my tire and bearing service tools. I know you can by the wheel stands, but this thing doesn't take up much room, works great, and best of all was free. Changing tires is easier than one would think, and bearings can just drop in the bucket instead of chasing grease soaked parts across the floor or bench.
I've also been replacing a few seals here and there as well as some worn out hardware. Countershaft seal, clutch actuator and seal, clutch adjuster assembly, countershaft nut and locking washer. Currently the tx750 forks are apart for new seals and a general cleaning. More on those soon.

Three Essentials of the Electric Grid
This course sets out, in three linked modules, the fundamental knowledge that professionals should have for working in the closely intertwined fields of energy and the environment. Students may take one, two, or three modules for one credit each.
Module A: Engineering Essentials
The engineering realities of electric power grids and natural gas pipelines greatly constrain the choices that lawyers and policy analysts might otherwise make. This module will cover the engineering fundamentals inherent in the current and expected energy infrastructure.
Module B: Business Essentials
The energy and electric power industries in the U.S. are facing unprecedented challenges in meeting our society's demands for low-cost, high-reliability energy and electricity with lower environmental impacts. This module will introduce the major financial and economic factors that energy companies use in making production and investment decisions, and how emerging environmental regulations might affect these decisions. The module will also cover deregulated market structures in the petroleum, natural gas and electric power industries.
Module C: Legal Essentials
This module will provide an overview of the fundamentals of energy law in both the US and the European Union. It will focus on what financiers, engineers, and economists need to know about energy law in order to work together and with lawyers in the energy world. The course will address some of the most important problems faced by energy project development, including facility siting, environmental issues, and authority fragmentation. In every issue a comparative perspective will be adopted.

Janet Novack, Forbes Staff
I write from D.C. about tax and retirement policy and planning.
In the last press conference of his first term, President Barack Obama today staked out his position on raising the nation's debt limit: He won't negotiate over the increase, won't use cute tricks to get around the limit, and will blame Republicans for any damage done to the economy if the country defaults on its obligations when it hits it borrowing limit sometime in mid to late February.
"Raising the debt ceiling does not authorize us to spend more. All it does is says America will pay its bills…We're not a deadbeat nation and the consequences of not paying our bills would be disastrous,'' Obama said. Republicans, he added, "will not collect a ransom in exchange for not crashing the American economy…the full faith and credit of the American people is not a bargaining chip.''
Obama added that he is willing to negotiate over further "balanced" deficit reduction including "modest" reductions in such entitlements as Medicare and increased tax revenue from closing "loopholes" for business and the wealthy, but not within the context of a threat to refuse to raise the debt ceiling. "I'm happy to have that conversation. What I will not do is have that negotiation with a gun at the head of the American people,'' Obama declared.
House Speaker John Boehner (R-OH) and Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-KY) has said they'll demand a dollar in spending cuts for each dollar the debt limit is raised going forward and some in Washington have expressed skepticism that Obama will stick to his no-negotiating pledge; he agreed to a spending-cut deal in August 2011 to avoid a similar debt default. But Obama insisted today that he intends to establish at the outset of his second term that the debt ceiling can't be used as a way for a minority to take an "absolutist position" and to demand changes in government programs every few months—changes which he said his reelection shows a majority of Americans don't support. "We've got to stop lurching from crisis to crisis to crisis,'' he said.
Congressional Democratic leaders, for their part, are calling on Obama to bypass Congress if needed to raise the debt ceiling. But Obama today rejected suggestions that he could invoke the 14th Amendment to raise the debt limit on his own. If Congress wants to give him the power to raise the limit, he'll take it, Obama said, but he doesn't now have it. Earlier, the Treasury and Federal Reserve issued a statement rejecting another gimmick that had been discussed to get around Congress—minting a trillion dollar platinum coin.
Asked about a Republican threat to refuse to fund the federal government when the current temporary budget resolution runs out on March 31, Obama said it would be a "mistake" that would harm the economy. But he also tacitly acknowledged it is a more legitimate use of Congressional power than refusing to pay the nation's already incurred bills and obligations.

Five Ways To Protect Your Retirement From Washington's Fiscal Follies
Since when does a request to stem runaway spending and balance budget become a "ransom" demand? Answer: when you have an administration that sees every pork item as a democratic vote getting tool. Amazing, the naivete of many Americans who do not see through the President's binge defincit financing plan–or may be they do and are conflicted because they are either wards of the Government (indigents , welfare gamers or the truly needy) or non-tax paying wealthy moochers.
Ganesh, "President's binge deficit financing plan" – Americans haven't figured that out but 'Ponzi' by any other name is still Ponzi.
Came across a well done article that lays out the crux of the biggest problem being ignored by the Administration and just about everybody else in Washington – The Fed and Indentured Citizens @
Until that gets fixed, the Nation's ills will continue "as is" – Ponzi on.
Obama has no interest in solving our nation's problems. He only has an interest in neutralizing (Republican) opposition to his agenda. The Republicans are the "enemy."
This is a perfect example of "Rule 13 – 'Pick the target, freeze it, personalize it, and polarize it." ("Rules for Radicals" by Saul Alinsky.)
This is what you get when you elect a community organizer as your president. It will be a very long 4 years IF he decides not to name himself "President for Life."
I really feel your pain. Third world countries like mine most times "elect" or are "compelled to elect" incompetent fellows for political offices; but we never, never, fail to see who is a fake or novice in leadership. Its just that we are kind of helpless lol. Americans on the other spectrum, have all the elective powers in the world but could not decipher a sly fraud for what he is but re-elected him…PATHETIC. The best things Obama does [in my humble opinion] is smear his opponents perfectly, create & bask in meaningless & trivial issues/news items supported by mainstream American media & get 65 million people fooled.
I find myself in complete agreement with you. However, I'd like to add that Republicans ALSO have no interest in solving our nation's problems, just in neutralizing the Democrat's ability to push their agenda.
Debt Crisis Con Job, aka Fiscal Cliff, aka we have too high Debt & Deficits, are ultimate proof that Republicans and the right-wing Media/Cabal, aka Wall Street gang, behind them, are the TRUE ENEMY within. Because here are the steps that would convert the US Deficits into a $16-T Surplus and they oppose all these Steps:
1- Cut the Military budget to be in size of US economy to World economy, which means cut it to $200-Bill, which would still leave US with the largest Military budget in the World by FAR. Such as give no more FREE Military to Rich countries of Germany, Japan, UK, South Korea, etc. This step would cut Government spending (Deficits) by $5-Trillion over next 10 years.
2- End the Afghan War and do NOT start new Wars of choice in Syria, Iran, etc.
3- Switch to Government run Universal Socialized health care (NHS), this would give health care to all American People while CUTTING health care spending by 50%. This step would cut Government spending (Deficits) by $10-Trillion over next 10 years.
4- Have everyone pay same FICA Taxes, matched by employer as it is in case of Middle Class, again NOT More, but just the same FICA Taxes as Middle class. This step would raise about $15-Trillion over next 10 years.
And further think, of above Steps which would convert the US Deficit into a $16-Trillion+ Surplus in 10 years, Democrats are only proposing a slight step regarding the 1st Step.
More: http://www.realnewspost.com/sa.php?a=61963
adding people to health care is not going to save money. I can't believe I actually just had to spell that out. Max, please find for me a country with socialized medicine that pays a smaller percentage of their total gdp into healthcare compared to us. Most of the people who don't have healthcare right now are young people…who don't want or need the healthcare! So they don't buy it!
Secondly, I get that all writers today are pretty bad at writing and keep inserting personal opinions but Janet Novack couldn't fall further into the tank or she'd be digging through basalt crust.
"He won't negotiate over the increase, won't use cute tricks to get around the limit, and will blame Republicans for any damage done to the economy if the country defaults on its obligations when it hits it borrowing limit sometime in mid to late February."
In other words, he is a super partisan hack. Notice how Janet calls spending cuts cute tricks.
here is another gem from Janet.
"I've spent much of my time reporting about taxes — tax policy, tax planning, edgy tax shelters, tax evasion, wacky tax credits, and Congressional tax malpractice. (Think AMT and the lapsed estate tax.)"
she equates the lapsed estate tax with malpractice…ahahahahaha. And here I thought she was protecting individual tax payers but no no no, Janet is making sure that big brother gets his measly 3 trillion.
Janet, explain that to all of the readers, why taking somebody's property after they die is morally just. Also explain how the hell it is moral when the person has already paid a sales tax on the items? Isn't that double taxing?
Max, I own a bridge that's incredibly valuable. I desperately need some money and I would be willing to sell it to you at an attractive low price. Please forward your telephone number to me right away.
How a "so-called" leader of the Free World will utilize every opportunity to divide his people is terribly shameful & sociopath like. I was shocked when Americans re-elected Obama…after that happened; nothing else relating to America can be a surprise to me. Obama; 4 more years of divide & rule, Emperor style, ITS I or nothing else!

White supremacists on the streets of Canada
It's hard to believe this is a scene from a demonstration in Canada. Your View contributor Ryan Dyer went out on the streets of Calgary to photograph members of the white supremacist group Aryan Guard as they attempted to stage a march. There were clashes and confrontations as anti-racism protesters tried to stop the march. Both Ryan Dyer and Shane Eaton documented the events as they unfolded and sent their pictures to Your View.

Siren song
Yeah, you know it: Clash of the Titans. Summer of '81. The dollar matinee show packed with grade eighters. Life in its purest state. Dare we continue to live vicariously through the entertainment lore of our youths? Dare we sit through boring work meetings fantasizing about how if we were Perseus, this meeting would be over by now? Dare we think that our own likenesses should be set among the stars as constellations to forever remind mankind of the values of heroism and bravery? Not if we want to maintain our employed status we don't. But don't think for a minute we aren't thinking about it! In the meantime, we'll just sit here quietly with our TITAN headphones stuffed in our ears.
Enter Skullcandy . . .

FORT MILL — The new Fort Mill History Museum opened Dec. 6 showcasing 500 years of history from Spanish exploration to the present day.
This is something that we are so proud to have, said Rufus Sanders, chairman of the museum board. Being able to share the history and pre-history of this town is something thats been long awaited for.
Sanders expects the facility, at 310 N. White St., will become a branding feature for the town.
Its exciting to see people getting excited, said Elizabeth Ford, past chairwoman of the museum board.
The museum operated a temporary location on Main Street and has hosted artifact collection drives, a book signing and other events. Just last week, there was a recognition for several lifetime members honored by the museum.
After participating in its first Fort Mill Christmas Parade on Saturday, the group also has plans for a Winter Wonderland celebration early next year.
Its a labor of love, Ford said. Its been a lot of work, but its been a labor of love all the way.
Visiting the museum will be like stepping into a timeline, Sanders said, with items from the early mill days and drug stores. There will be a research library for people to study genealogy and a gift shop for someone to shop for someone who has everything, he said.
Several prominent people in the towns past have rooms named for them. The museum also should be attractive, Sanders said, to people with little connection to the towns past.
They will appreciate where we are, and they will see the journey and the mission that were on, he said.
Ford says some local residents have told her theyve waited 60 years for such a place to celebrate Fort Mills history.
What museum leaders are finding is that the more history they share, the more there is still to uncover.
All kinds of memories are coming to people, Ford said. We really need to start carrying a video camera around.

Universal Vote by Mail
PSN on March 16, 2006 - 2:19pm
Following the 2000 election, everyone saw just how flawed an election could be. In 2004, even without the same closeness, America witnessed other problems including extremely long waiting times to vote: a sign that America was no longer even preparing for moderately high turnout elections. Meanwhile, one state was chugging along, doing just fine.
Oregon adopted universal vote-by-mail in 1998 and put it into practice in federal elections in 2000. Since that time, voter turnout has been up, public costs have been down, and election day hassles have all but disappeared. With its widespread popularity in Oregon, neighboring states are taking a closer look: Washington state is inching ever closer to universal vote-by-mail and California officials are reportedly eyeing the reform in the face of yet more voter machine issues.
The fact is, when it comes to election issues, vote-by-mail solves virtually all of them. Long, frustrating lines at polling places? Abolish Election Day. Concern over a lack of paper ballots? Switch to universal vote-by-mail, they'll all be paper ballots.
And universalizing vote-by-mail even solves some problems that mixed systems don't avoid. For example, moving to a universal vote-by-mail system saves money because of reduced overhead from running polling places. Checking change of addresses keeps the voter rolls up-to-date and can serve as a protection against fraud. And having most votes into county offices by Election Day means that elections results are reported quickly and accurately.

A journey that began with for a possible run against a 30-year Congressional veteran ended Tuesday night with a resounding victory against a 13-year veteran of the City Council.
According to the Associated Press, Assemblyman Hakeem Jeffries, D-Brooklyn, has won the 8th Congressional District Democratic primary against challenger Charles Barron—a triumph that should pave the way for a November victory.
As of late Tuesday night, Jeffries led with 72 percent of the vote over Barron with 94 percent of precincts reporting, the AP said.
"All of the political pundits said this would be a close race," Jeffries told the packed room at Clinton Hill's Sanders Studios in his victory speech. "That was before the people had spoken."
He went on to thank his wife, his two sons and a campaign team that ran a race short on mistakes.
In his victory speech, Jeffries vowed to stand up for seniors, schoolchildren and President Barack Obama in Washington, D.C.
"I think he's doing a great job," Jeffries said of the President. "Brooklyn is sending a message that help is on the way."
In attendance at Jeffries' victory party was Public Advocate Bill DeBlasio, former city Comptroller and mayoral candidate Bill Thompson and a packed house of enthusiastic supporters.
"He's a serious and meaningful guy...who is going to help us move this city forward," DeBlasio said.
At Barron's campaign event in Bed-Stuy, the mood was understandably much more subdued as it became clear that the night belonged to Jeffries.
"When we lodged this campaign we knew that we were going to be up against powerful opposition," Barron told his supporters. "Never in the annals of the political history of this state has the candidate had to go against the entire New York National Democratic political leadership—Gov. [Andrew] Cuomo had to do robo-calls."
Based on early returns, it appeared that Barron trailed Jeffries even in East New York, where his council district is centered.
In his remarks, Barron struck a defiant note in regards to his opponent.
"At the risk of sounding like a sore loser, honesty compels me to say there will be no congratulatory statements to the opposition tonight only because the way the campaign was run and the things they did, the character assasination," he said of Jeffries. "And the opponent didn't stand up and say, 'I have enough money, I have enough backing to win—don't do that to another black man in front of the entire nation.' ... Not to do that shows a lack of character."
Outside his campaign event, Jeffries told reporters that it was the "chattering class" that made the race seem closer than Tuesday's election results indicated.
"There is not a single part of this district in which we didn't do well," he said.
Amy Sara Clark contributed reporting.

This recipie was super easy and yummy! I made it for lunch and it was perfect! I also added a tomato to liven it up a bit more! Be sure to used plenty of lemon pepper for more taste!
Cristin McKee
Pretty tasty, though I did take some liberty with the recipe. I used a mix of pastas, spirals, egg noodles, and whole wheat egg noodles, for more of a salad feel. I cooked the broccoli in a separate pan with a thin layer of water. I never boil veggies because it leeches the nutrients. I used most of a fresh lemon and a liberal amount of pepper on the chicken as it cooked in a separate pan. When I mixed it all together it still wasn't strong enough so I added a great deal more pepper, lemon, salt, some fresh cilantro, and a healthy dose of olive oil. Now that's tasty! Next time I'll try cooking the broccoli and chicken in the same pan for a while to mix flavors.
Awesome! Very light tasting and a refreshing change from those heavy pasta salads.

Home-style noodles add old-fashioned appeal to this soup but you can use a cup of uncooked dried fine egg noodles instead.
Chicken thighs are ideal for long, slow cooking because the rich, dark meat doesn't dry out, as does leaner white meat such as chicken breasts.

It is always hard to say goodbye.
This is the last issue of Linux Journal that I will be editing. I am moving on to do programming for Red Hat Software.
I have enjoyed editing Linux Journal.
Linux Journal has been and will continue to be an important part of the Linux community. And I am not really saying goodbye to LJ in any real sense—I intend to continue to write LJ articles. I will be busy doing things, rather than talking about them, and I enjoy occasionally writing about the things I am doing.
Hello It's me, your new editor. My qualifications?
I've been a musician since the age of 16—guitars and (now) mandolin;
my first computer, a Kaypro, ran CP/M;
my first Linux was 1.1.54;
I survived nearly fifteen years as a sysadmin in a CAD design environment, and have the nervous tics to prove it;
and I've been the editor of a weekly magazine.
Phil and the rest of the Linux Journal staff have taken me in despite this checkered past. For this I thank them a lot.
I'd like to assure them, and you, that I won't be trying to fill Michael's shoes. That's too big of a task. Besides, it's too early for that kind of hubris; maybe after you get to know me better. Nor do I think that you'll see any big changes... for a while.
The wizards at SSC will help keep me from crashing and burning. What I want most of all is for us to keep doing what we do best—serving the worldwide Linux community. That's you.
I'm looking forward to working with this crew and meeting as many of you as I can. To use one of the most over-used words in what passes for discourse these days, I'm excited about being able to give something back to the Linux community through this magazine; this is going to be fun.
I look forward to seeing you next issue.
Linux has become a key foundation for supporting today's rapidly growing IT environments. Linux is being used to deploy business applications and databases, trading on its reputation as a low-cost operating environment. For many IT organizations, Linux is a mainstay for deploying Web servers and has evolved from handling basic file, print, and utility workloads to running mission-critical applications and databases, physically, virtually, and in the cloud. As Linux grows in importance in terms of value to the business, managing Linux environments to high standards of service quality — availability, security, and performance — becomes an essential requirement for business success.

Spring 2013 Leadership Certificate Program
Managing your most valuable asset. Human capital is the most valuable asset in
any organization. Discussion on the importance of acknowledging staff as people
more than just "worker bees" and defining the difference of a manager versus a
leader is key to developing positive employee relations in any organization. To
be successful, you must be able to attract and retain qualified staff.
Participants will walk through the recruitment process with focus on creating
accurate job descriptions, interview questions which uncover applicant
competencies and behaviors, understanding the value of using personality
assessments, how to complete reference checks and determining when
credit/background checks and drug/alcohol screenings should be used. Discussion
on performance management will include; how to prepare and set the stage for
the formal evaluation process, how to coach and write-up poor performing
employees up to and including termination without fear of liability.
Participants will share in a review of common state and federal laws that
employers are required to follow.

dash of pepper
" Eat to grow, Progression to get stronger " - mesmall
I eat mine with some mayo and thats it, no wheat.....
a tuna sandwich is a perfetc meal because, the wheat is good carbs, the tune, protein and with some mayo you have some fat..
A good balanced meal..
If you have more than one sandwich there is more carbs, thats all you have to take into account...
I split a can into 2 sandwiches, that way the great taste lasts longer!! I use 'fat free' miracle whip and white bread. I think i'm gonna try tuna on a lettuce salad also. mmmmm...mouth is watering just thinkin bout it!!

TRAVERSE CITY — A man who took his computer for repairs at Best Buy faces four felony counts of possession of child sexually abusive material after store technicians tipped off police.
Employees contacted a Traverse City police sergeant and indicated the computer "remotely contained images suspected to be child sexually abusive material," according to court documents.
A Best Buy manager provided police with the computer owner's information.
Police used a search warrant to enter the West 10th Street home of James Christopher Knight, 44, court documents show.
In Knight's residence officers located a Toshiba desktop tower, 82 pages of printed images, VHS tapes and other computer equipment.
The charging documents indicate a Sept. 26 offense date.
A computer forensic examiner evaluated the hard drive and found numerous child sexually abusive images.
Knight faces an additional charge of possession of marijuana, which was discovered during the search warrant.
A preliminary examination is scheduled for Feb. 19.

It's that time of year again. Daylight saving time (DST) for spring of 2013 will occur on Sunday, March 10 at 2 a.m. United States residents will prepare to wind their clocks forward one hour, with the exception of the states of Arizona and Hawaii, where the tradition is not observed.
According to the Huffington Post, the idea of DST was first introduced by Benjamin Franklin in a jesting suggestion that Paris could save money on candles by adopting the system. The idea was officially proposed to the Royal Society of New Zealand in 1895 by George Vernon Hudson, a prominent entomologist. In 1916, Austria and Germany became the first countries to adopt the DST system.
According to the National Atlas of the United States, standard time zones in the U.S. were begun by railroads in 1883. With the ability to travel long distances in a short amount of time, railroad companies had a need for a standard time zones in order to accurately schedule stops at various localities. Many of these localities followed their own "sun times," which were determined by a local, standard clock, such as one on a town's church steeple.
According to the Department of Transportation, the original time zone system adopted by railroad companies consisted of four zones (eastern, central, mountain, and Pacific). Time zones in the U.S. were later expanded to include the following: Atlantic, eastern, central, mountain, Pacific, Hawaii–Aleutian, Samoa, and Chamorro.
According to the National Atlas of the United States, standard time zones were not part of established law until the Standard Time Act of 1918, which laid out specific time zones for the continental U.S. and also established DST.
According to the United States Naval Observatory, DST was repealed in 1919, at which time it became an issue debated by local governments, but it was reinstated during World War II and standardized under the Uniform Time Act (UTA) of 1966. The UTA decreed that daylight time would begin on the last Sunday in April and end on the last Sunday in October each year at 2 p.m. local time. The UTA allowed for local exemptions from observance.
In 1974, daylight saving time began in January, and in 1975, it began in February, due to an energy crisis, as declared by Congress. In 1986, the U.S. reverted to the original dates declared by the UTA, according to the United States Naval Observatory.
For 1987, the starting date was changed to the first Sunday in April, but the end date remained the same. In 2005, both dates were changed under the Energy Policy Act, and as of 2007, the beginning date for DST is the second Sunday in March, and the end date is the first Sunday in November, according to the United States Naval Observatory.

To fig connoisseurs, Calimyrnas are the Rolls Royce of figs. Comparing them with other varieties is like comparing hamburger with filet mignon. If you don't particularly like figs, you probably have never tasted a fresh Calimyrna. Since they are extremely perishable, most of the Calimyrna crop is used for dried figs, confectioneries and pastries.
Calimyrna figs are a high-energy, nutritious fruit. They are high in vitamins, calcium, phosphorus and iron, and are an excellent source of fiber. Golden yellow in color, these delectable fruits can be added to muffins, cookies, puddings and pies.

Feb. 12, 2014 — FRANKFORT A federal judge has ruled Kentucky's ban on recognizing same-sex marriages performed in other states violates the U.S. Constitution's Fourteenth Amendment's equal protection clause.
U.S. District Judge John Heyburn ruled while religious beliefs are important to society they aren't a justification to discriminate based on a class of people. The suit was brought by four gay and lesbian couples.
Heyburn wrote in the memorandum accompanying his order that "recognizing same-sex marriage clashes with many accepted norms in Kentucky" and went on to say many Kentuckians "may be confused — even angry" when a court decision like his calls those views into question.
He said those reactions "are understandable and deserve an answer." He goes on and writes that "assigning a religious or traditional rationale for a law does not make it constitutional when that law discriminates against a class of people without other reasons."
Heyburn cited the U.S. Supreme Court ruling striking down the federal Defense of Marriage Act in striking down part of an amendment to the Kentucky constitution approved by voters in 2004. That amendment says "only a marriage between one man and one woman shall be valid or recognized as a marriage in Kentucky."
In the 23-page opinion, Heyburn does not say Kentucky must permit same-sex marriages to be performed in Kentucky but that it must recognize those from other states.
He rejected arguments by the Family Foundation that recognizing same-sex marriages would undercut the role of procreation in marriage.
Martin Cothran, spokesman for The Family Foundation, blasted the ruling saying it proves Kentucky voters' votes don't count when they don't correspond to the "political ideology of liberal judges."
Paul Chitwood, executive director of the Kentucky Baptist Convention, called Heyburn's ruling "tragic and disappointing."

"We knew we were all going to die," he says, casually.
I have heard this line many times in films, read it in books, but to hear it face to face, from a man who knew he was going to die, is something else. This is not a line we, born in free countries, quite appreciate when it is played out in the movies. To feel the real meaning of the words, make a trip to Momin Road in Chittagong, and find Binod Bihari Chowdhury, who lives in one of the bylanes in a small non-descript house. He had a bullet pierce his neck, but he has survived to tell the not-often-told tale of the Chittagong Armoury Raid in 1930.
Binod is 101 now, the last revolutionary alive among that group, mainly comprising students, who fought a battle that they knew would eventually claim their lives. He is as frail as can be imagined. Recently he has been to Kolkata for treatment. He struggles with high blood pressure, but still watches cricket, much to the chagrin of those who look after him. He struggles to talk, but likes to tell stories. Dadu we call him. Like a dadu, a grandfather, he has us sit around him and tells us of the people who fought for independence. He doesn't blink at all when he is talking. There are four of us there, and he looks into the eye of each, one by one, alternating, as he admits his memory plays tricks at times.
Once upon a time Binod was a student too. A student who, when moving to an English-medium school from the Bangla school, had to be demoted two standards to fit into the English school. "I didn't understand all that then, I did what my father asked me to," he says. From the age of 16, Binod's life has been one full of revolution, the fight against injustice, prison, hibernation, having a prize on his head – 500 rupees – but the most inspirational part of it has been the Armoury Raid, led by the legendary Masterda Surjya Sen.
The first thing he talks about when he realises we are from India is about the recent Bollywood film on the Chittagong Uprising, Khelein Hum Jee Jaan Se. "Why do they keep calling him Surjyo da, Surjyo da in the film? Don't they know nobody ever called him Surjyo da? He was always Master da." Just confirms how callous popular culture can be. How do you make a whole feature film on the revolution without consulting the only revolutionary alive?
At the age of 16, Binod joined Jugantor, the revolutionary organisation. A measure of how committed they were to the cause was how nobody got to know what he was up to. Not his father, not his mother, not his brother, not his sister, not the best of his friends. Such organisations had to be secret in those days, else they wouldn't survive. "One day I was chatting with Master da," Binod says. "And one of the revolutionaries saw us, and asked Master da, 'Why do you let him sit next to you? I have asked him to join us many times, but he keeps abusing you.' That's when Master da laughed and told him, 'He has been a member even before you.' That's how well we guarded our organisation. I still have secrets I have never told anybody, ever."
After meticulous planning, they put up their fight against imperialism, after which, albeit for a short duration, Indian Republican Army, Chittagong Branch, as they called themselves, tasted freedom. They took Auxiliary Forces armoury, and cut telephone and telegraph wires. Master da took a military salute, and the National Flag was hoisted.
"We knew if we claim their armouries in Chattagram [Chittagong], the Britishers wouldn't be able to do much. But we also knew we would be able to rule for only two-three-four days. We would soon be outnumbered… We knew we were all going to die."
We spent more than an hour with Binod, during which he told us about his and his friends' ordeals when the stronger British forces finally caught up, about his time in prison, about how the independence they fought for didn't turn out to be the independence they wanted, his role in the planning for the Liberation War of 1971. For about 10 minutes after we came out, nobody spoke a word. Films and books can never do that to you.

Losing Control
It was only my third day in Kazakhstan, but it was an important one. It was the day volunteers were taken home by our host families, the people we would live with during our three months of training in villages around the city of Almaty. A nervous energy filled the air as we packed and repacked our belongings, trying unsuccessfully to find a place for the water distiller and medical kits given to us by the Peace Corps. We all dressed in our Sunday best, whispering and gossiping like nervous girls about to go on their first date.
Only, we had more to fear than bad movies, stale popcorn, and sloppy kisses.
Most of the families arrived together, sharing rides in vans and cars whenever possible. Waiting on the steps of the sanatorium, I looked at every person, every family, wondering which one would come and get me. One by one I watched my friends get located by their host families and taken away, but I still hadn't been found.
For that eternity of waiting, not being picked up was almost as frightening as being picked up. Like being last-picked for the kickball team in gym, only instead of playing a game I was to be whisked away by people I didn't know speaking a language that I couldn't understand.
At last I saw them, my new host father and sister, being led up by one of the staff members. The man was about my height and somewhat plump. He had a pale complexion and round, European eyes; had I not been in Kazakhstan, I would have thought him German.
"Good afternoon," I said in Russian, holding out my hand which he shook with a firm grip. "My name is Amber."
"My name is Sergei," he smiled. Some of the tension in my shoulders dissipated. No one could smile like that and be a bad person, right? "This is my daughter, Anastasia."
A thin wisp of a girl with long brown hair looked up with a shy smile. It was difficult for me to guess her age. She was so small and skinny that I thought pre-teen, but the mature look in her eyes said otherwise.
"Hello," she said in English.
And with that, Sergei grabbed my luggage and we started walking to his red Volkswagen van.
There were about ten other people huddling around the vehicle, pushing in luggage and cramming into the three rows of seats. My host father was a driver, and had agreed to give four other families a lift. I rode shotgun.
I'm not ashamed to admit the complete overwhelming sense of fear that I felt as I rode away in that big red van, wondering if I was going to live with serial killers or if I would be sold into slavery or if they would just steal my things and leave me on the side of the road to die. I didn't know how to contact anyone; I couldn't use the phone and didn't know any numbers to call even if I did. I had no idea where I was or where I was going.
If I did manage to escape from whatever terror my mind was imagining, I had no language skills to ask someone for help. Saying my name and good afternoon had exhausted my vocabulary. Literally, the overweight smiling man driving the red van could do anything with me that he wanted, and I wouldn't be able to do a thing about it.
At that moment I could feel the shattering of an illusion that had deceived me for the entirety of my life. Growing up, I believed that my parents had control of everything, that they would keep me safe. As a teenager, I had taken that control for myself and was the master of my life and destiny. Nothing happened to me that I didn't plan or couldn't influence in some way. I was the boss of my life and I knew it.
No more.
Really, I had never had control; I only thought that I did. At any time a drunk driver could have killed me, a serial killer could have targeted me, lightning could have struck me, any of a thousand things could have happened that were 100 percent out of my sphere of control. This was not an easy realization, and I fought it as long as I could. I had to have control, didn't I? Wasn't that what I had been taught?
When that car drove away from the sanatorium, I could no longer buy into that illusion. Neither did the Peace Corps. Oh, they took steps to try and have as much control as possible. But if my new host father decided to shoot me and bury me in the backyard to fertilize the strawberries, neither me nor the Peace Corps would have been able to stop him. That was truly a scary thought and one I have never forgotten.
My future was in their hands entirely; I would just have to trust them.
I glanced over at Sergei from time to time as we rode away from the sanatorium, and his expression was serious, his eyes focused ahead, though the volunteers and their host families in the back seats kept up a steady stream of conversation.
The road wound down and around the foothills of the mountain, dirt for the most part but fading into pavement as we descended. I couldn't keep my eyes off the mountains and the lush viridian grass that carpeted the slope, speckled here and there with blossoms and tall, majestic trees. The sky was a little clearer that day, and snow-capped peaks were visible in the distance.
The hum of conversation in the van was comforting in that it made the silence in the front seat less awkward. I attempted a conversation.
"Where's your mom?" I asked the daughter whose name I couldn't pronounce. She sat on a consol between Sergei and me; it didn't look comfortable. Still, she had said something in English so I was hopeful.
Her eyes were wide as she looked at me and shook her head, moving perceptibly closer to her father.
Brows furrowing, I struggled to remember what I had read in the Learn Russian in 60 Minutes lesson I had brought with me from home. Finally it came.
"Mom?" I asked in broken Russian. "Where?"
"Она дома, дома," Sergei answered.
My incomprehension must have been clear because my host sister made a similar face to the one I had a moment ago as I struggled with my memory. "Home," she said. "Doma."
"Doma?" I repeated. "Does that mean home?"
She smiled and nodded. I sighed, repeating the word several times in order to stick it in my mind. This was a useful word; one I would most likely need.
My host father looked at me, then pointed at the mountains. "Gorey," he stated, smiling.
The snow in his hair was reminiscent of the mountain peaks. I smiled back – a lopsided, confused, but hopeful smile – and nodded.
"Gorey," he repeated, gesturing again.
Oh, I thought. He's telling me the name of the mountains. I liked this game. "Gorey?" I said, pointing at the mountains.
A big, satisfied grin exploded across his face, like a parent when a young child accomplishes something surprising. "Gorey, Gorey," he chuckled.
Equally exultant, I turned to a volunteer behind me. "They call these the Gorey mountains," I explained, feeling like a genius. About a month later, I would learn that the Russian word "Горы" literally meant mountains in English and wasn't the name of the chain of mountains as I had thought. It wasn't one of my brighter moments.
When we entered the village proper and began dropping off volunteers at different houses, I tried to keep track of where I was and where everyone was in relation to me, but it quickly became apparent that this was an impossible feat. Every road to me looked like the one I had ridden on before – dirt and gravel streets lined by a canal and full of mud-brick houses trimmed in blue. There were a few paved roads, but not enough to help me get a grasp on any real landmark.
Mostly there was dust and pot holes.
As silence slowly settled over the van with each decrease in passengers, I became likewise increasingly nervous. I was certain that I couldn't find my way anywhere if my life depended on it, which I was worried it might. The language game had been fun, but it also made more apparent just how dependent I was on the two people sitting next to me. It was an uncomfortable, chest-tightening feeling.
We pulled up to a house – tan and red brick with a blue gate – and Sergei cut the engine.
Squaring my shoulders, I took a deep breath, putting into it the fear and confusion and paranoia I felt. Then I exhaled, opened the van door, and let go of the reins on my life.

Comments about Kartell T-Table:
I placed this table (tall) next to an antique Louis XVI chair. I love the juxtapositon, thinking it makes the chair much less stuffy. This is a quality table that can hold its own in a modern or traditional setting.
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend
