my favroite pizza shop – I love this pizza shop i think they have the best pizza in brooklyn.the service is great, the men who work there are very nice
I like my neighborhood pizza better than both Di Fara's and L & B. The crust is nice and crispy and the sauce and cheese go well together. The veggie delight pizza is also very good, though sometimes they don't heat it up enough.
I haven't tried anything else there; I'm just talking about the pizza.
One time I got pizza delivered and it took a really long time, but I think it was on a holiday or something.

L.A. architect's mission: Build a better animal shelter
When Rania Alomar was hired to design a new animal shelter for the city of Los Angeles, the architect was given specific instructions: Create a temporary home for animals that increases their comfort, and by virtue of the shelter's design, makes people want to adopt a pet.
But can architecture really reduce euthanasia when the city's shelters are filled to capacity? Yes, Alomar said, if it's a facility that people want to visit, a place where "you want to come in and feel like you are in a happy space."
The $9 million South Los Angeles Animal Care Center is scheduled to open next month with 270 kennels, and the hope is that the facility will challenge the outdated perception of the animal shelter as dismal dog pound.
It's a design experiment from an architect who has learned from experience -- designing an animal wellness center, an animal emergency room in Long Beach and a German Shepherd rescue facility in Santa Monica, where she is pictured here.
The exterior of the new South L.A. animal shelter is striking, with a front facade composed of a series of green stucco "ribbons" and concrete panels with overlapping foliage, shown at top. The modern design is a welcoming presence in a light industrial zone near Western Avenue and 60th Street.
But perhaps the most remarkable feature of the facility is its layout: Imagining the psychology of people who will come to the shelter to "shop" for pets, Alomar has designed the building with a retail model in mind. The architect thought of shoppers at a mall who allow themselves to be sidetracked by small boutiques on their way to a large department store, so at the shelter she created a series of displays with the hope of enticing them to consider "alternative" pets such as reptiles or bunnies or older dogs rather than, say, puppies, which are often the first to be adopted.

HTC has announced its new flagship smartphone, the new HTC One, which features the latest Android Jelly Bean OS and LTE network technology, and is powered by a 1.7GHz quad-core Snapdragon 600 processor.
Wrapped in an aluminium unibody, the updated HTC One device features a 4.7-inch, Full HD (1080p) screen with 468ppi resolution.
The new HTC One also introduces the company's new Sense innovations. At the center of the new HTC One experience is BlinkFeed, a new experience that transforms the home screen into a single live stream of personally relevant information such as social updates, entertainment and lifestyle updates, news and photos with immersive images so that users no longer need to go to separate applications to find out what's happening.
For the new smartphone, HTC developed a custom back camera with f/2.0 aperture lens and a sensor with the HTC UltraPixel Camera. Engineered with larger pixels, the UltraPixel sensor enables each pixel to capture more than 300% more light than most leading 13 megapixel cameras, the vendor said.
The new HTC One will be available globally through more than 185 mobile operators and major retailers in more than 80 regions and countries beginning in March.

Mon-Sat, 11am - 1am; Sun, 10am - midnight
Poor customer service – Had Sunday brunch with my family. It was super crowded so we had to use the valet service. The food was pretty good and view was great from the deck in the back.
When I got home I noticed that my lanyard on my car keys was missing. I have a push button ignition on my car, so I didn't check my keys until I got home.
I called the restaurant back and spoke with the valet manager and told her what happened. She did not apologize to me, and did not even know what a lanyard was. She then suggested that it probably fell off, and told me she would have someone look into it and call me back.
A few hours later with no call back, I call again, this time speaking to the night manager at the restaurant. She said she would get someone to call back again, but still no apologies or assurance that it will get resolved or any sort of compensation. The first lady I spoke with called me back and was very terse in speaking, and when I asked for an apology, she said she had no reason to apologize to me. Finally she said she would get someone to purchase a replacement and mail it to me.
tl.dr - Valet service lost/stole my lanyard. Managers have no customer service skills.
Nice View ... Bad Service – The only thing good about this place was my drink and even that wasn't the best I've ever had. Had the Walleye Fish and Chips. The Tartar Sauce was glorified mayo and the cole slaw had no seasoning at all. I can forgive mediocre food but the service was HORRIABLE. It was a monday afternoon - hate see what it is like when it is actually busy. Took forever to get our drink orders, had to ask for water refills and wasn't even offered dessert. Our waiter had the personality of a rock. Won't be back too many other reataurant to try -
Fun atmosphere, tasty food! – Always a fun place to go! The food is great, I love the buffalo chicken flatbread! I have dealt with both friendly and attentive staff, as well as the occassional rude waitress. When it gets really busy, sometimes we've had to wait for a while for service. I've had more good experiences than bad. It is my favorite lakeside restaurant in the area, so I will definitely come here again and again!
Tasted Like a Hot Pocket – We went on a Monday evening and sat outside by the water. While the view was nice, the limited bar menu was expensive. Sandwiches were between $10-$13. We got the Walleye sandwich and the grilled chicken panini. Both tasted like a hot pocket. Service wasn't that great either. I'll never go back here.
Maynards Rogers does not care about you or their service – I have never had a good experience at Maynards... 2 out of 4 visits my order was completely wrong (and not fixed), waited 20 minutes for a drink order & gave up and went to the bar myself. I could go on and on.... I've sent a letter to the manager explaining why I will never come back and he never even acknowledged it. Forget it, Maynards does not care about you or the service they provide.
Seven dollars for one beer, and then you beg the server to bring another – Okay food and a nice view of the lake, but the service is terrible. After being seated, we had to beg for every drink refill and the server left all of the used plates to pile up in front of us. If you are going to pay this much money for food and drink you would probably save money by renting a boat. Even the bartender and hostesses were rude to customers. GO ANYWHERE ELSE!
awesome food, and views – maynards has always had great food, and service. the lake is an added bonus, and if I had to recommend some items off the menu I would say you must get the waffle fries, and the buffalo chicken wrap... you won't be disappointed. Then go to the bar and get a great drink. The deck is awesome in the summer, but always packed, especially on weekends. The beer is always great.
Great Happy Hour – The Rogers location is great for happy hour. The menu is inexpensive and has diverse options: spicey green beans, buffalo shrimp, several flat breads, steak bites, lettuce wraps and more. Serice is fairly good.
Brunch was a bust – The Elk River Maynards has the strangest brunch I've every attended. Sweet and sour chicken and chow mein? I wasn' t sure if I was at a Asian "all you can eat" place or brunch. The worst thing, however, was the service which was horrible - we had to beg for coffee and water. I would not recommend this place.
Editorial Review by Annamarie Cumpston – Diverse menu options--Cajun to American--and a killer view of Lake Minnetonka draw locals to this Excelsior tavern.

In his first tie-breaking vote of the 2013 session Lt. Gov. Bill Bolling sided with Democrats to delay implementation of a measure designed to tighten Virginia's voter identification law.
The measure sponsored by Sen. Dick Black, R-Loudoun, would remove utility bills, social security cards, bank statements, government-issued checks and paychecks from the list of acceptable identification voters can use at the polls to prove who they are.
Senate Democrats introduced an amendment that would delay implementation of the bill until July 1, 2014, should the measure pass the evenly-divided chamber Tuesday. They argued that the measure was designed to suppress voter turnout, and that with voter identification changes last year the state did not have the time or money to launch another voter education effort ahead of the 2013 elections. The bill also would not go into effect if the General Assembly does not include money in the budget to fund a voter education campaign.
Bolling said he supports the measure to limit the forms of acceptable identification, but agreed with Democrats that the time frame for changing the law be pushed back.
"Let me be clear, I support the purpose of SB719," Bolling said in a press release. "I think it is a reasonable effort to tighten voter identification requirements and assure greater integrity in the voting process. However, we just changed Virginia's voter ID requirements in 2012, and we cannot change these requirements every year. I am concerned that this would create unnecessary confusion among voters about what forms of ID are required at the polls."
When the measure comes up for a vote on Tuesday it is likely to result in another tie, which Bolling indicated he will break in Republicans favor.
He has also thrown his support behind a measure by Sen. Mark Obenshain, R-Harrisonburg, that would require photo identification only at the polls and includes a computer data base of voter photos for use by election officials at the polls. That measure already has a 2014 effective date. The Senate will vote on that bill Tuesday also.
"I will support passage of (Obenshain's bill) if it comes before the Senate and results in a tie vote," Bolling said. "I have always supported photo ID because I believe it will help improve integrity in the elections process. However, it would make no sense to have passed comprehensive changes to our voter ID laws in 2012, to pass the additional changes set forth in SB719 in 2013, and then attempt to implement a pure photo ID requirement in 2014. It is this type of constant change in our voter ID requirements that I fear could create unnecessary confusion in the minds of voters."
Voting with the Democrats is an example of the once stalwart Republican's new "independent voice." Bolling dropped out of the race for the GOP nomination for governor against now presumptive nominee Attorney General Ken Cuccinelli.
Bolling has said he will announce whether he plans to run for governor as an independent in March.
One of the seven Republican candidates hoping to replace Bolling as lieutenant governor, Hampton Roads-based minister E.W. Jackson slammed Bolling for his tie-breaking vote Tuesday.
"I am greatly disappointed at Lieutenant Governor Bolling's vote to kill Sen. Dick Black's bill to help ensure that our electoral process is fair, open, and honest. Valid elections are the very cornerstone of our system and this step toward ensuring a secure process is not a change that should wait another year," Jackson said in a press release.
To be clear, Bolling did not vote to kill Black's legislation, he just voted to delay implementation of the measure should it become law.

Fancy South Africa might be shot after yesterday but would be amusing if France failed to score a goal.
The results are not dissimilar to their performances in 2002 really, both now and then saw them pick up 1 point from their first two games, in both this tournament and that they drew 0-0 with Uruguay. Now we just need South Africa to play the role of Senegal and finish the job.
At least this result will make people understand that france in this WC not comparable to 06.. Everyone refering to their slow start to previous WC, forgetting the fact that they used to have makelele, viera, zidane in the team. This team has half the class of the previous one, besides no experience of winning majors together. If anything, their performances more or less mirroring their euro 08 debacle.
This is why I hate Diaby. One great game and a completely liability for the next few. Bye bye and good riddance Domenech.
Oh the delicious irony of the French being virtually eliminated by a team in green
Nothing but joy watching that game eh? Well deserved by Mexico, and now France should be out.

Breaking Douchebag News: Jon Gosselin Axed! Show Renamed Kate Plus 8!by Hilton Hater at .
Great news for Jon Gosselin: he'll soon have more time on his hands to flirt with anyone with boobs and possibly get into Las Vegas threesomes.
The attention-starved, vagina-hungry father of eight has officially been axed from the TLC series that made him famous, as the network announced this morning the show would only feature Kate Gosselin.
As of November 2, it will be titled Kate Plus 8.
"Given Jon's recent antics, there was no way the show could continue to portray him as a doting Dad, not while all this other crap was going on," a source told People.
After Jon and Kate announced plans to separate in June, the series took a six-week hiatus and returned on August 3 to just 4.3 million viewers. Since then, Jon has gone public with his relationship with Hailey Glassman and said he despises his ex-wife.
"Given the recent changes in the family dynamics, it only makes sense for us to refresh and recalibrate the program to keep pace with the family," TLC president Eileen O'Neill said in a statement. "The family has evolved and we are attempting to evolve with it; we feel that Kate's journey really resonates with our viewers."
Moreover, O'Neill implies, Jon Gosselin is a giant douchebag.
Will you watch Kate Plus 8?

Good for TLC! I haven't watched the show yet this season. Now with him more out of the picture I will watch again. There is just something so endearing about those 8 kids. I am so glad he is off the show, maybe he will be out of the news too and we won't have to hear about him chasing young girls and babysitters any more.

Shenzhen OCT Properties Co
Unbuilt Design Award Submission
This project is an extension of a highrise residential community located between an existing lake and a highway in Shenzhen, China. The project consists of 1416 residential units, retail, a cultural center and parking for 3600 cars. The site is conceived as a series of layered terraced landscape levels which contain public, semi-public and private uses. These terraces provide multi-level connections to existing adjacent residential highrise communities and are designed to contain and differentiate open space for immediate residents, public open space for the larger surrounding community and exterior plazas and open spaces which work in conjunction with cultural and retail facilities. Below these terraces are vehicular circulation points and parking.
The terraces serve as a platform for a series of point towers containing three and four bedroom units. All primary living spaces face south to respect Chinese tradition. Exterior voids in the towers contain sky gardens which vertically extend the ground plane landscaping and provide visual permeability for a very dense residential environment.

While most of us plan ahead for a successful career, it was in fact quite the opposite for Elle Daftarian whose career pursued her.Originally from Vancouver with a background in fashion and design, Elle began her career in the creative sphere as a buyer whose sharp imaginative flair was quickly noticed and admired from a very young age. Exposed to an array of cultures and environments via her extensive travels to Miami, New York, Paris, Italy, India and Pakistan to name a few, Elle's unique and meticulous eye inspired her ability to intertwine fashion, play and lifestyle, leading her seamlessly into her real passion – throwing elaborate social event experiences.In 2006 this modern day Martha Stewart partnered up with good friend Caspar Haydar to start Madison8 Event and Flower Laboratories – a full service luxury event and design firm that was immediately recognized for its innate talent and flawless execution. But this ambitious beauty saw an opportunity to expand their events business when she met cake decorator and dessert connoisseur Yolanda Gampp who shared with Elle her vision of a company that specializes in creating elaborate and highly stylized 'sweet tables.' Driven by passion and an entrepreneurial spirit, it didn't take Elle long to work with Yolanda and Caspar on turning this vision into a reality and in 2010 Sweet Fix was born. In an effort to provide a 'home' for both Madison8 and Sweet Fix, the dynamic team opened the doors of Petite & Sweet – a sleek and stylish storefront boutique where clients can enjoy a tasty macaron and espresso while discussing their event needs.As a single mother to 8-year-old Sophia, Elle's biggest challenge is finding enough hours in the day to weave all of these passions together. However as her business partners will attest, nothing is impossible for Elle! It's this go-getter attitude that has contributed so greatly to the success of anything she becomes involved in.Caspar Haydar

A humbling experience
There's something about the ordinary, somewhat subliminal [without getting all psycho-physical] suggestive of seemingly ordinary, which sounds strange as soon as I try to say something about it: the human experience. I found a suitable German word [for it] meaning something along the lines of concealed in familiarity, which is playing 'on the tip of the tongue' with me now. All of this is a pretext to say that I enjoy, every now and then, living amongst strangers–speaking languages I don't understand. During one of these sojourns I happened to meet a gentleman who did tapasu in Himalayas some 50 years ago. Given my fascination with conscious experience I asked him 'what it is like?'
Crazy, complete breakdown of the boundary separating reality from whatever it is not, a trip lasting months, years; you wouldn't go live all by yourself in a cave buried in snow if you care about living is how he seemed to describe the experience. I told him, since I enjoy talking about myself, that I am writing a grammar [textbook that nobody wants to study] for a language [that many think everybody should learn]. I felt that he didn't register the weight of it; so, when I got a chance to talk about myself again, I boiled it down: I'm good at math.
Oh, ya?
Needless to note, I didn't like the sound of it. As I was contemplating a counter befitting O'ya! I heard him tell me that it took me 15 min. to go to the railway station and that it took him 20 min. since he was really old. How far is the station from the motel, he asked. It didn't take me long to realize that this was one of the those smart Alec questions: What do elephants do when it rains?
Have sex?
That's what I thought not because my brain is infested with sex but because in the movies that I grew up watching I noticed a strong correlation between romancing and pouring rain.
Obviously I wasn't amused when I found the answer: elephants get wet.
Compounded by all these wayward thoughts, I couldn't bring myself to calculate the distance; and when he asked me, after few days, if I knew anything about equations and volunteered the even more humiliating info that that question was a 2 marks bit in one of his high school midterms or pop-quiz, I tried to find the distance traveled given the time it took me and the time it took him to travel the distance but to no avail. Finally on the day I was checking out he told me, while twisting my right ear like a high school math teacher from a bygone era that he must have been, the answer, which made me want to drown myself in a 3 inch puddle I was looking at. On the train back to my sister's place I saw colimit [huddled with other low spatial frequency sightings of paddy fields spreading all the way to rocky mountains reaching up to the clouds carrying coded messages across the overarching skies] at a distance.
Wish me good luck as I befriend the twins (least common multiple, greatest common divisor; colimits / limits) in the 2 marks question smiling at me :-)
Happy Subrahmanyam Sashti!

Palladino: Scheduling woes aplenty
|WOLCOTT, CT - 4 February 2013-020413EC07-- Wolcott's Michael Bozzutto gets the ball stolen from him by Saint Paul's Nicholas Villani (5) Monday night. Behind them is Saint Paul's Jordan Rowley. It wasn't enough to stop the Eagles, who won the home game, 60-48. Erin Covey Republican-American.
So, now what do we do? Our contingency plan needs a contingency plan. Remember Plan B? We are now on Plan L.
As I write this Sunday afternoon my street remains unplowed and impassable. I have contacted area athletic directors to find out what they are doing with games, postponements and schedule changes, and the answers have been direct and definitive: "We don't know yet."

In Their Own Words – The Lake
This "In Their Own Words" is by Taran Burns, a young man with Asperger Syndrome.
I have Asperger's Syndrome. I've known since I was 16, now I'm 23. My daily life is filled with anxiety, agoraphobia, paranoia, and usually a deep depression that takes a lot of effort to snap out of. When I decide I need a break from the chaos of work and the cacophony of city sounds, being completely crowded and yet so alone, I escape to Wales.
This lake in Wales gives me an instant sense of relief. I am one with the world and completely at peace. The lake connects me to my childhood, nature and a feeling that I am alive. Here, in my own company, I do not feel alone.
"In Their Own Words" is a series within the Autism Speaks blog which shares the voices of people who have autism, as well as their loved ones. If you have a story you wish to share about your personal experience with autism, please send it to firstname.lastname@example.com.

My 2 year old son was recently diagnosed with autism and although we don't know where he is in the spectrum yet, this gives me a better understanding of what he might be going through when he is stimming or having "tantrums". My new quest is to find his "lake" too. Thanks for sharing Taran!
September 6, 2010 at 12:59 pm | #6
Dear Taran,
Thank you for sharing your experience. My son is nearly 4 years old and has autism. He loves the water and various water activities very much. Please know that you are not alone. The picture of your lake that you've shared is very peaceful and serene.

Glenn Adams / The Associated Press
AUGUSTA — In a preview of his State of the State speech to be given Tuesday night, Gov. Paul LePage said hours before the scheduled address that his passion for education issues stems from his tough childhood.
"Through all hardship I knew education was my key to climb out of poverty, escape a life in prison or on the streets," the governor said in a tweet of the text of his speech, which is to be given at 7 p.m. before a joint House-Senate session and before a statewide radio and television audience.
Families were expected to be the central topic in his second annual State of the State address, but education and energy, as expected, were major issues, LePage's tweets indicated. LePage's office released pieces of the speech on Twitter hours in advance of the event, making it the first time a Maine governor has used social media to promote the annual policy address.
Democrats, meanwhile, went to YouTube to get their message out, in which they also listed education and energy as two of their priority issues.
In an excerpt from his speech, LePage wrote his passion for education "is not an attack on public schools."
"As a homeless child on Lewiston streets, (it) never occurred to me one day I could be a successful businessman, mayor or even Governor," LePage tweeted. "Through all hardship I knew education was my key to climb out of poverty, escape a life in prison or on the streets."
"Education is what saved my life and I cannot accept any child not being given the same opportunity I had," LePage's message said.
LePage's tweets also touched on his energy policy, including a message touting a plan to fast-track permits for natural gas drilling, similar to a 2008 law that streamlined Maine's wind-power regulatory process.
"I am going to do the same for natural gas infrastructure," LePage tweeted. Another message says the average Maine family spends $3,000 or more a year to fill their oil tank, but with access to natural gas, they would save average of $800.
Democrats, who hold House and Senate majorities, issued a statement on YouTube hours ahead of LePage's speech in which House Speaker Mark Eves of North Berwick outlined the Democrats' four-point plan to invest in Maine's future: workforce development, education, lowering energy costs of energy and health care and making key investments in roads, bridges and research and development.
Eves also took direct aim at LePage's proposed $6.3 billion two-year budget, saying, "It is impossible to cut our way to prosperity. The Legislature must work to put more money in the pockets of Maine families and businesses, so they can spend it locally and help create jobs. The Governor's budget proposal will do just the opposite."
LePage's speech comes a day after the Republican governor met with Democratic House and Senate leaders to discuss the new legislative session. LePage had refused earlier to meet the Democrats and had canceled a meeting with Eves and Senate President Justin Alfond of Portland on Dec. 4. During the meeting, which also included GOP leaders, the officials discussed their legislative priorities for 2013.

Clothes Fire Closes Dickinson JCPenney StoreDICKINSON - "The best team ever," is how JCPenney manager Doug Erickson described employees while standing near the entrance of the store Friday, as smoke fumed out the doors.
By: Jennifer McBride, Forum Communications
DICKINSON - "The best team ever," is how JCPenney manager Doug Erickson described employees while standing near the entrance of the store Friday, as smoke fumed out the doors.
No one was injured in an afternoon fire that forced an evacuation of the store and had some employees manning fire extinguishers while another called 911. Others said they were a little scared.
It was not known as of Friday afternoon how a clothes rack in the men's department caught fire.
"My heart was racing," employee Cora Tormaschy of Dickinson said. "After I saw smoke, I knew it was serious."
Though rattled, she managed to close the doors leading to the rest of Prairie Hills Mall, where the store is an anchor.
The damage is minimal compared to what it could have been — some merchandise and possibly some of the floor is damaged, Erickson said after the fire was out, but before having a chance to go back in and assess the scene.
He could not put a dollar amount on the loss of merchandise, and he was not sure when the store would reopen. The fire is under investigation.
Soaked and burnt clothes were strewn in front of the building Friday as firefighters set up fans to ventilate the store. Co-workers standing near the entrance talked about the blaze while watching firefighters walk in and out.
Employees said they noticed a rack of clothes was in flames and some of them grabbed fire extinguishers and sprayed it. The flames would subside briefly, but shot right back up. Soon the store was smoke-filled, they said.
"It was two minutes after I heard the word 'fire' and it was completely smoke-filled," Tormaschy said.
Erickson said he was upset about the situation, but glad everyone was safe.
"They handled it like they had done it before," he said.

November is National Diabetes Awareness month. It's a good time to reflect on your blood glucose successes and have compassion for what you may view as failures. What's in a glucose reading anyway? It's just a number. It gives you feedback for a certain time period. Everyone struggles with maintaining good blood sugars. The important thing to remember is that you are not alone. In this issue, you will find everyday heroes who are committed to reminding other people that we are all in this together. Since dialog is what it's all about when dealing with your diabetes, I am happy to tell you about a new section of our popular web site, Diabetes Health Forums. It's a place where you can participate in an existing discussion or start a new one of your own. Learn more at www.diabeteshealth.com/forums.
John B. is an active participant in Diabetes Health Forums. He lives in Missouri and was diagnosed with type 1 in 1992. When we asked John why he patiently spends so much time answering people's questions on Diabetes Health Forums and guiding them to the information they need, he responded, "I want to do good by helping others. I want to work with like-minded people to find ways to improve diabetes care. I want to repay those who helped me and gave me hope by doing the same for others."
Fourteen-year-old Eva H. is another active participant in Diabetes Health Forums. She was diagnosed with type 1 when she was eight years old. Eva started several discussions (or "threads" in today's parlance) because she wants to become a pediatric endocrinologist. She thinks "it's a good idea for teens with diabetes to have a place to go to talk, vent, gripe, or just express success in pumping and with diabetes in general."
Eva's mother, Cynthia, wrote an article in this issue about her nine children, three of whom have type 1. Neither Cynthia nor her husband, Greg, has diabetes, and the three diagnoses were quite a shock. It's gut-wrenching to watch a child cope with something as challenging as diabetes. But Cynthia is an everyday hero. She rolled up her sleeves and became an advocate in the schools for better understanding of diabetes. She taught her children to pick themselves up and go on with life. Cynthia writes, "I think that all of my kids are who they are because of the experiences that have touched them. I like the people that they have become."
This issue of Diabetes Health also celebrates the heroes that live among us. Laura Dugan writes in "My Own Injection" about finding out that she had type 2 at age forty-five. She says she shouldn't have been shocked, her father had type 1, and other family members suffered from type 2. Her father died at the age of forty-one from a heart attack, but her mother "always insisted that it was partly because he didn't manage his diabetes well." But no one in Laura's family talked openly about diabetes. There was no exchange of information, so Laura had no idea what to do when her own diagnosis came. Thankfully, Laura has since taken control of her health. It's not easy. Diabetes Health Forums can support Laura and help her to remember that we are all in this together. We have shared experiences. We've all been frustrated. We've laughed. We've cried. We've carried on.
The awe-inspiring Jay Hewitt on our front cover has lived with type 1 since 1991. He's an elite Ironman triathlete (2.4 mile swim, 112 mile bike ride, 26.2 mile run) and three-time member of the U.S. National Team for Long Course Triathlon. He is a lawyer, father, and motivational speaker. This issue marks the beginning of his regular "Reaching the Finish Line" column in Diabetes Health. Each issue, he'll write about motivation, fitness, nutrition, and how to achieve goals in life and business.
If you like to stories about overcoming odds, don't miss the article about the Canadian pilot Steve Steele, who helped pave the way for pilots with diabetes to fly commercial jets in Canada. There's also Jean Roemer, MSN, MN, CRNP, CDE who gathers diabetic supplies and ships them to Malawi, Africa. Finally, there's Al Krause (diagnosed with type 2 in 2002) and Ruth Higgins, who worked hard to stick to Dr. Bernstein's low carb diet while vacationing Down Under.
It's a time to celebrate all of us: those who don't give up, who live by example, and who are helping us all live a better life.

Roasted Celery Soup
Author Notes: Celery roasted with a little fennel and garlic and then pureed with chicken broth and potatoes makes for a nice starter or light lunch. A touch of half and half or cream with a spritz of lemon finishes it off. - inpatskitchen
Food52 Review: WHO: Inpatskitchen is a prolific FOOD52er and -- as a retired teacher, paralegal, and seafood retailer -- a bit of a cook of all trades, too.
WHAT: A simple and elegant twist on cream of celery soup.
HOW: By roasting the celery and fennel, and boiling the potatoes in broth, inpatskitchen builds a lovely foundation of flavors. And of course, cream to finish is always a great idea.
WHY WE LOVE IT: This soup truly elevates humble, plain vegetables that are usually relegated to a garnish plate or side dish to a higher plane of existence. Given proper attention, lo and behold, they shine. - A&M
Makes almost 2 quarts
- 8 large celery stalks cut into 2 inch pieces
- 1/2 bulb fresh fennel cut into 2 inch chunks
- 2 large whole garlic cloves
- 3 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
- 3 medium redskin potatoes, peeled and cut into a 1 1/2 inch dice
- 6 cups chicken broth
- 1/2 cup light cream or half and half
- 2 teaspoons fresh lemon juice
- Salt and pepper for re seasoning if needed
- Celery leaves and fennel fronds for a little garnish
- Place the cut celery, fennel and cloves of garlic in a 9x13 inch roasting pan. Add the salt, pepper and olive oil and toss to thoroughly coat everything. Roast in a 350F oven for 40 to 45 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the edges of the vegetables just begin to brown.
- While the vegetables are cooking, cook the potatoes in the chicken broth until tender..about 10 to 12 minutes. Set the pan aside to cool a bit.
- When the vegetables have finished roasting add them to the potatoes and broth. Let everything cool a bit.
- In a blender puree the soup in batches. If you have a "liquify" setting on your blender use that. If you like you can strain the soup through a mesh strainer. Once pureed. return the soup to the pot and bring up to the boil. Stir in the cream/half and half and the lemon juice. Re season if needed and garnish each bowl with celery leaves and fennel fronds if you like.
- NOTE: For a little more pronounced celery flavor add a pinch or two of celery seed or salt when re seasoning.

I just made this soup; oh so yummy! I did skip the cream for allergy reasons and found that the potato gave it a creamy texture that was just right. I am sure the cream would have made it delectible but it is good to know it is wonderful without for those of us who cannot use cream. Also I used vegetable base, because I had some, to make it vegan safe!

Subbed an item out of necessity - a tbsp of dill for fennell. Added half a red onion (sauteed) because it was in the house and a couple extra stalks because I really had too much in the house! Soup turned out great and I'll definitely recommend it. :)

Also, I'm nthing the people who said you can skip the cream. I'm sure it's lovely with it, but potatoes + immersion blender yielded just the texture I was looking for even without it.

This soup is AMAZING. Every since I first had cream of celery root soup in Stowe, VT (one of those transformative food moments I'll remember forever) I've been trying to recreate it. Wrestling with gnarly celeriac is never my favorite, but worse, I could never get the intense celery flavor and velvety texture I craved. Turns out, I was coming at it the wrong way entirely. One bite of this soup and I was back in the ski cabin with the snow outside, so happy to be alive.

This. Was. Fabulous.
I had tons of leftover celery from Thanksgiving. Raw celery is not my jam - it's so plain - but I was committed not to letting it go to waste when I found this soup. I subbed the cream/H&H for 2T butter and omitted the fennel since I didn't have any on hand. Oh...then I added some crumbled bacon to finish things off :) This was a great light, yet warming, dinner soup. Thanks for the recipe!

Perhaps dill? But not too much. Anise? Possibly just celery!
about 1 year ago sel et poivre
This looks fantastic. And I have a whole bunch of celery in need of some loving in my fridge. However, fennel is always hard to get (and oh so expensive) where I live. What do you think would be a good substitute? Thanks
about 1 year ago inpatskitchen
Thanks sel et poivre! Maybe 1/4 to 1/2 teaspoon of ground fennel seed and more celery? And lindamettler's dill suggestion sounds fabulous!
about 1 year ago sel et poivre
Thank you both! I will try it with fennel seed and maybe scatter some dill on top.
about 1 year ago inpatskitchen
Let us know how it goes..
about 1 year ago sel et poivre
Finally made this for dinner. Like you suggested, I added some fennel seeds before I roasted the celery. And I made a few other changes. I only had 2 smallish potatoes and a couple of sweet potatoes, so I just threw them all in. I also didn't have any cream so I just used milk. A pinch of sugar to round up the flavours and a sprinkle of chilli flakes at the end and guess what? It was so so good! Best soup I've had in ages. Thank you!

I'm so glad you enjoyed this and I like your modifications!!
about 1 year ago placidplaid
I will although I will leave the fennel out of the first batch just to get the celery essence.

I was required by the homeopathic doctor I was working with to eat 2 cups of cooked celery along with my dinner, this soup came to my rescue! SO glad I can just eat a large bowl of this instead of some cooked celery alone. Thank you, delicious!
about 1 year ago inpatskitchen
So glad it worked out for you! Thanks so much!

Teacher resources and professional development across the curriculum
Teacher professional development and classroom resources across the curriculum
Course Information:
Overview of the Course
"Patterns, Functions, and Algebra" explores the "big ideas" in algebraic thinking, such as finding, describing, and using patterns; using functions to make predictions; understanding linearity and proportional reasoning; understanding nonlinear functions; and understanding and exploring algebraic structure. The course consists of 10 two-and-a-half hour sessions that each include video programming and activities, provided online and in a print guide. The 10th session explores ways to apply the algebraic concepts you've learned in K-8 classrooms. You should complete the sessions sequentially.
Session 1, Algebraic Thinking
Discover what it means to think algebraically, and learn to use algebraic thinking skills to make sense of different situations. Topics covered include describing situations through pictures, charts, graphs, and words; interpreting and drawing conclusions from graphs; and creating graphs to match written descriptions of real-life situations.
Session 2, Patterns in Context
Explore the processes of finding, describing, explaining, and predicting using patterns. Topics covered include how to determine if patterns in tables are uniquely described and how to distinguish between closed and recursive descriptions. This session also introduces the idea that there are many different conceptions of algebra.
Session 3, Functions and Algorithms
Investigate algorithms and functions. Topics covered include the importance of doing and undoing in mathematics, determining when a process can or cannot be undone, using function machines to picture and undo algorithms, and recognizing that functions produce unique outputs.
Session 4, Proportional Reasoning
Look at direct variation and proportional reasoning. This investigation will help differentiate between relative and absolute meanings of "more" and compare ratios without using common denominator algorithms. Topics include differentiating between additive and multiplicative processes and their effects on scale and proportionality and interpreting graphs that represent proportional relationships or direct variation.
Session 5, Linear Functions and Slope
Explore linear relationships by looking at lines and slopes. Using computer spreadsheets, examine dynamic dependence and linear relationships and learn to recognize linear relationships expressed in tables, equations, and graphs. Also, explore the role of slope and dependent and independent variables in graphs of linear relationships and the relationship of rates to slopes and equations.
Session 6, Solving Equations
Look at different strategies for solving equations. Topics include the different meanings attributed to the equal sign and the strengths and limitations of different models for solving equations. Explore the connection between equality and balance, and practice solving equations by balancing, working backwards, and inverting operations.
Session 7, Nonlinear Functions
Continue exploring functions and relationships with two types of nonlinear functions: exponential and quadratic functions. This session reveals that exponential functions are expressed in constant ratios between successive outputs and that quadratic functions have constant second differences. Work with graphs of exponential and quadratic functions, and explore exponential and quadratic functions in real-life situations.
Session 8, More Nonlinear Functions
Investigate more nonlinear functions, focusing on cyclic and reciprocal functions. Become familiar with inverse proportions and cyclic functions, develop an understanding of cyclic functions as repeating outputs, work with graphs, and explore contexts in which inverse proportions and cyclic functions arise. Explore situations in which more than one function may fit a particular set of data.
Session 9, Algebraic Structure
Take a closer look at "algebraic structure" by examining the properties and processes of functions. Explore important concepts in the study of algebraic structure, discover new algebraic structures, and solve equations in these new structures.
Session 10, Classroom Case Studies
Explore how the concepts developed in "Patterns, Functions, and Algebra" can be applied at different grade levels. Using video case studies, observe what teachers do to develop students' algebraic thinking and investigate ways to incorporate algebra into K-8 mathematics curricula. This session is divided into three grade bands: K-2, 3-5, and 6-8.

I take it as one of my first duties to challenge this. The right to have a view is indeed equally shared, but this is does not imply the same for the idea itself. If all ideas are equal, then all ideas are worthless.
If we accept this, then we can meaningfully ask questions about how these views might be evaluated – true grist for the educational mill.
A fine line
An American bill, defeated ultimately by the Oklahoma Senate this year, attempted to legislate that students were not to be "penalised in any way because the student may subscribe to a particular position on scientific theories".
Obviously this terrain that must be carefully negotiated in the context of developing minds, but there is a core principle here that requires articulation.
Central to a liberal society is the right to discuss things. Not being able to do this is totalitarianism – the banning of unsanctioned ideas. So where on the continuum of controlling public discourse, if it is to be done at all, can we comfortably sit?
The further we move away from unfettered public speech the murkier the waters become, with calls of and for censorship beginning after the first paddle stroke. Where this boundary lies for and within individuals is highly significant in an educational setting.
Let me make the point in a broader social context, one that involves exploring that most cherished of hurts, the pain of being offended.

Outdoor Composting Bins
1 The Valentina Composter by Priscilla Woodworth: This one made the top of the list for two reasons: obviously, it's adorable. And it's compact enough for a balcony or small yard, making it a good option (albeit the price tag looms around $300). The concept looks very simple, too; put your scraps in, and compost winds up at the bottom, available through the little door.
2 Urban Compost Tumbler - UCT7: Read how one writer uses it to compost food clippings and biodegradable diapers.
3 Suncast Tumbling Compost Bin: We have this model in our yard and think it's pretty easy to use. Stuff decomposes really quickly, but we haven't yet tested the end product (according to the how-to booklet, compost can be ready in as few as two weeks). In any case, it has a small footprint and we're very happy with it thus far.
4 Lifetime 80 Gallon Compost Tumbler: A snazzy-looking compost tumbler; it's lightweight with a locking pin.
5 Exaco Trading ECO-88 90-Gallon Wooden Composter: Here's another compost bin that's easy on the eyes and on the planet. Made out of cedar, which is naturally bug and rot resistant, this is a pretty bin that has plenty of space for aeration.
For more information about composting, check out this all-inclusive post!

These all costs lots of money. I bought a second hand, big plastic round bin (so I can roll it around), 10 euros, and drilled lots of holes into it for oxygen.
I have the Suncast, as well. It is great!
Sorry I have not used any of these - I hate to think of using one made of virgin wood. We got the Earth tumbler from a local town, at cost, and it's flimsy - plastic, it cracked just from being put in the car (by the town folks) and I worry about the plastic leaching even though it's the supposedly nonleaching type. I like the most inert possible but that would probably be glass. Wish I could find a metal one.
Has anyone used the Valentina? I'm drawn to the idea of a bin that can double as a side table if needed. Would this be an okay place to rest a portable grill, or does that sound hazardous? Are there other composters out there that are similar in design?

text: The 2010 vintage is the result of an exceptional combination of dry weather - 2010 was the driest year of the decade - and of rather cool temperatures - with the coldest May for five years. These weather conditions produced a late, extended flowering period. The flowering, which was disrupted in some instances, resulted in significant flower abortion of the Merlot. One of the consegauences of this was relatively low yields. Weather conditions in the first half of July (summer temperatures but not a heat wave), allowed the veraison, which had been slowed down, to quickly be completed. The very low rainfall this year (fairly close to that of 2005) resulted in small berries and very well-ripened tannins.Merlot harvest: 27th September to 3rd OctoberCabernet Sauvignon harvest: 5th October to 10th OctoberCabernet Franc harvest: 6th October2010 Blend: 78% CS, 19% Me, 2% CF, 1% PVAverage yield was 38hl/hectare

This document is an older, unmaintained guide. There may be a new guide available for this software.
CouchDB is a non-relational document based database. Like other entrants into the "NoSQL" field, CouchDB attempts to provide a more flexible data storage system for use in custom application development. CouchDB is written in the Erlang programing language which supports an innovative concurrency model. While CouchDB does not use an SQL interface, it uses an HTTP interface and JSON as a data format for easy integration in application development.
Before installing CouchDB, it is assumed that you have followed our getting started guide. If you're new to Linux server administration, you may be interested in our using Linux document series including the beginner's guide and administration basics guide.
Issue the following commands to refresh your system's package database and ensure that you're running the most up to date software:
apt-get update apt-get upgrade --show-upgraded
To install CouchDB and all of its dependencies, issue the following command:
apt-get install couchdb
CouchDB will start as soon as the application is fully installed. You can use the "init script" located at /etc/init.d/couchdb to control CouchDB. Issue the following commands to start, restart, and stop CouchDB:
/etc/init.d/couchdb start /etc/init.d/couchdb restart /etc/init.d/couchdb stop
Congratulations! In most use cases, you will not need to modify CouchDB's configuration file. However, should you need to modify any of its settings, a number of options are set in the /etc/couchdb/local.ini file.
Most of your interaction with CouchDB will occur by way of the system's HTTP and JSON interface. CouchDB comes with a web-based administrative interface called "Futon". Since CouchDB is only accessible over the local interface by default, you will want to create a secure ssh tunnel in order to access CouchDB or Futon from your local machine to avoid sending data in the clear.
Once the SSH tunnel is in place or you have configured your Linode, you can access the CouchDB HTTP interface by making a request for http://localhost:5984. For a simple command-line HTTP client consider installing curl with the following command:
apt-get install curl
Now issue the following command:
curl http://localhost:5984
In response, CouchDB will return the following:
With the SSH tunnel active, you can access the Futon interface by visiting the URL "http://localhost:5984/_utils/" in a web browser on your local system.
Additionally, CouchDB provides an embedded JavaScript interpreter if you would like to interact with CouchDB directly. Access this interpreter with the couchjs command in your terminal by issuing a command in the following form:
couchjs duck-team-check.js
Where, duck-team-check.js is a file containing JavaScript code for the CouchDB interpreter.

Q: This is what Allentown needs: photo enforced stop signs. They have been very successful in California and Washington, D.C. These camera systems improve safety at intersections by monitoring vehicles and also help prevent pedestrians from being hit by cars that don't come to a full stop. Allentown certainly could use the revenue generated by these systems.
— Jan Waller, Allentown
A: Any revenue that might help offset the city's tractor-trailer load of long-term pension obligations certainly would be helpful, Jan.
Seriously though, opinions on stop-sign cameras, like those regarding their cousins, traffic-light cameras, depend on the view through each motorist's windshield, and vary widely.
I like the concept, and I think all varieties of automated photo enforcement, including speed-limit cameras, should be available for use statewide by PennDOT and by municipalities. Speed-enforcement systems would be particularly welcome in a state where municipal police are not even allowed to use radar — an absurd situation the Legislature refuses to correct.
Many people raise legitimate civil liberties and other concerns over photo enforcement, but I believe those can be addressed adequately through regulations imposed by law on the operation of the systems.
For example, in Pennsylvania red-light cameras have been approved for use in Philadelphia, and only there, since 2002. The state Vehicles Law section covering their operation is intended to prevent officials from shortening yellow-light timing to unjustly snare motorists, and it also controls the amount and use of ticket revenue. Images can be taken only from behind vehicles, and use of the images and other information relating to violations is strictly controlled. Such restrictions are not foolproof, but they and other reasonable precautions can be taken.
This year Harrisburg finally approved the use of red-light cameras in more municipalities, though not as many as proponents (including myself) would have liked. As of July, in addition to Philly the systems can be used in any city, borough or township with more than 20,000 residents and an accredited police force, so long as the qualifying municipality lies in Bucks, Montgomery, Chester or Delaware county.
State Sen. Dominic Pileggi, R-Delaware, introduced the red-light camera extension law. As of last week, Pileggi spokesman Erik Arneson was unaware of any newly authorized municipalities with plans to install red-light cameras. Cost may be contributing to any reluctance: Municipalities must pay to install and operate the systems. Though Philly and other cities have made money on their cameras, in Los Angeles and other cities outside Pennsylvania systems have been shut down because of problems including legal challenges and revenue falling short of expectations.
The libertarian National Motorists Association and others vehemently oppose red-light cameras, and though their concerns are justified, they're also overblown. It's easy to arouse populist ire and suspicion of governmental motives (generating revenue, invading privacy) in condemning the cameras. But they're really just an enforcement mechanism. And though nobody wants to get a traffic ticket (which helps account for the ease of building opposition to the cameras), it's very simple: Stop at the light, and you won't get a ticket, any more than you would with a cop following you.
There's been some dispute over accident statistics cited to support or oppose red-light cameras, but most traffic safety agencies strongly support the systems. Check out the testimonials from police officers and administrators in New Jersey towns where the cameras are used, displayed on the website of system provider American Traffic Solutions. Sure, it's promotional stuff for the company selling the cameras, but you have to be more cynical than I to discount all these people's experiences. This opportunity for improving safety and raising reasonable sums for public use should not be passed up.
Stop-sign cameras are a newer model coming off the same assembly line. Like red-light cameras, they basically act as police officers, on continuous duty watching for violators 24/7, at a tiny fraction of the cost of actual people doing the job. We simply could not afford to post cops at every dangerous intersection for this duty alone, even for hours a day, much less all day, all week long. These systems are classic examples of technological leaps forward.
In six Connecticut towns, motorists who blow through the stop signs that extend from stopped school buses that are loading or unloading students receive a just reward in the mail courtesy of cameras mounted on the stop-sign arms: $450 citations, according to information in our sister paper, the Hartford Courant. I think few people would argue with that procedure, yet red-light cameras provide exactly the same enforcement service; only the violation differs. If improving the safety of schoolchildren is important enough to justify photo enforcement, then a safety boost for all pedestrians and motorists should also qualify.
Redflex Traffic Systems, another photo-enforcement provider, reports that school bus stop-sign cameras are authorized for use in 10 states. The regular stop-sign cameras are farther behind; only three states allow their use: California, Alabama and Tennessee, according to Redflex spokeswoman Jody Ryan.
Seeing as how it's taken a decade to achieve just an incremental expansion of the use of red-light cameras here in Pennsylvania, we probably won't get the green light for stop-sign cameras anytime soon, Jan.
That's unfortunate, but it also provides incentive for Pileggi and other supportive legislators keep the throttle wide open in their drive to bring this kind of safety-improvement technology to every corner of the Keystone State.

Fox extends deadline for reaching new deal with Suddenlink
CHARLESTON, W.Va. -- News Corp./Fox has extended a deadline for reaching an agreement with Suddenlink Communications over how much the cable operator should pay for some Fox channels.
The agreement, which was set to expire at 5 p.m. Wednesday, has been extended to 11:59 p.m. Central Time on Thursday, both Fox and Suddenlink announced.
If unresolved, the lack of an agreement could result in Fox pulling national cable networks from Suddenlink's cable system. Affected networks: FX, National Geographic Channel, Nat Geo Wild, Speed, Fuel TV, Fox Soccer, Fox Deportes, Fox College Sports and Fox Movie Channel.
Fox's regional sports networks also could be affected, including Fox Sports Ohio.
The dispute would not affect WVAH Fox 11, a Fox television network affiliate that serves the Charleston-Huntington television market, said Sol Doten, Fox Networks' vice president of communications.
"The networks that are affected are Fox owned and operated stations," Doten said. Sinclair Broadcast Group Inc. owns WVAH Fox 11.
Fox News Channel and Fox Business also are not affected because they are part of a separate, longer-term contract.
Information about the dispute is posted on a website Suddenlink has established at www.SuddenlinkOnYourSide.com and on a website Fox has established at www.KeepMyNets.com
In an email Wednesday, Doten wrote, "Going forward, we will continue to actively negotiate with Suddenlink in hopes of reaching a fair agreement so Suddenlink viewers don't lose access to their local FOX television station and other Fox cable networks. We will attempt to keep our viewers informed of the situation every step of the way."
Gene Regan, Suddenlink's director of corporate communications, said in a Wednesday email that Suddenlink continues to negotiate with Fox in good faith and that progress is being made toward an agreement.
