Much more frequent in Hollywood than the emergence of Cinderella is her sudden vanishing. At our party, even in those glowing days, the clock was always striking twelve for someone at the height of greatness; and there was never a prince to fetch her back to the happy scene.

Read more about Phonsavan
The lively town of Phonsavan is the capital of Xieng Khuang province and is famous for two reasons.
Firstly, the area was one of the most heavily bombed in Laos, and that's saying something in the most heavily bombed country in the world. Today the region remains littered with unexploded ordinance (UXO) and the evidence is everywhere. The resourceful locals use bomb casings and other remnants for every purpose imaginable: as fences and parts of their housing, as tools, vegetable planters, decorations and barbecue fireplaces.
Secondly, the province is the site of the mysterious Plain of Jars. The centre of Xieng Khuang province is littered with clumps of large stone vessels, believed to be ancient funerary urns. The origin of these enormous jars is unclear, inciting international debate.
The scenery in the province is very different to any you'll see in the rest of Laos. Rolling hills are covered in the wet season with green grass and sparse forests of ... Read our complete Phonsavan travel guide

I think by now we all know that Amazon Kindle is run by crazy monkeys on typewriters - obviously the ideal situation for everyone is to have all titles available for all platforms, but with Amazon's baffling censorship policies, it's becoming difficult for us at DMP to understand or predict what action they'll take towards a book.
To make sure you guys don't lose any sales because of angry Amazon-baboons, groups with blocked books are free to advertise their works as "TOO HOT FOR KINDLE" or something similar.
As of 4/4/2012, here's the list of blocked DMG books:
- Touching the Night Stars
- Son of the Mimura Family
- My Sweet Home
- The Faithful Dog Waits for Flowers
Go stick it to Amazon, guys. If you have any questions about the titles or have an extra promotional idea, feel free to mail firstname.lastname@example.com or get in touch with me (Kozato!).

Lint/dust/pollen build up and need to be cleaned out. Have you checked the owner's manual? If you don't have it, you can probably find it online. It probably shows how to take the cover off and get to the drain.
Sometimes, the drain line gets kinked. You need to check it out to verify. There is a sloped pan underneath the evaporator coil to collect the condensation. At the low point, is the drain hole.Sometimes a pipe cleaner or a wire or something can be used to poke through it and clear out whatever is plugging it.

My name is Matt Holck.
I have been a dishwasher a Janitor and food prepper for a Bistro, a small Cafe, a large business park Cafeteria, and a Pizzeria in my life for a combined 5 years of experience. Taking cue from the dish washing machine and the drying cycles, I am a multitasking expert setting up one task while another runs its cycle. I work to keep the dishes ready to be prepared for any sudden rush or unexpected need that requires my attention away from my post. I organize the products for machine loading and return them to their station without disturbing the flow of others. I'm proud of my work and strive to keep a clean station. When I am caught up on my work, I search for other tasks.
For three years at the bay front downtown, I rode a geared Rickshaw(pedicab) searching for smiles to keep my spirit light. I'd glide slowly along streams of walking tourist and regulars offering rides to local restaurants such as the Star of India and the Fish Market. As they rode, I'd ask them where they where from and what they were doing. I'd listen for connection to my own experience to chime them through conversation. Levity and utility were my selling points and the passenger's happiness was my happiness.

text: After working over fourteen hours today, with perhaps three hours of sleep the night before, my boss on the DC consulting job took me out for dinner at a diner, nearly the only restaurant still open in Bethesda at that hour. After dinner he asked for a Banana Cream Pie, his usual self-treat after this sort of marathon work day. The night chef told us it is no longer available. Montgomery County outlawed Trans-Fats and such pies are now contraband. For a moment I considered asking if there was a back room where one could gorge on smuggled pies, but thought better of it. Such secret places would be only for locals and those known to the Mafia, not for transient gypsy engineers such as myself.

I know they wanted to keep expectations down because the mantra was (and seems always is with a film about women) that this is unprecedented and there is nothing to compare it to. I'd like to now retire these delusional thoughts. Women have starred in successful franchises, action movies and comedies. Maybe we just need to start keeping our own statistics to help people out.

Important Disclosure Regarding the Guarantee Program

If Byrne had won a national title Ags would have drug him out of his bed in the middle of the night, bronzed him and put him right next to the statue of Sul Ross......
Texas A&M athletic director Bill Byrne made his retirement official today at a press conference in College Station. Calling his 10-year run "an incredible journey," Byrne said he will take on a the role of special advisor to the A&M president R. Bowen Loftin as of today.
One wonders just how much advice Loftin will actually seek from a man he's pushing out the door. As we suggested this morning, Byrne announced that he will indeed retire in full at the end of August, gone by football season as expected. He will then receive a settlement "equal to the present value of the last year of his contract" which runs through the end of August in 2013.
Associate AD John Thornton will take over as the Aggies' interim AD until Lofton can land a replacement. A&M's president called the divorce amicable, adding: "It's no secret Bill and I haven't seen eye-to-eye on various issues."
The main issue being Texas A&M's jump from the Big 12 to the SEC. Byrne said he had no role whatsoever in that decision (or in the hiring of football coach Kevin Sumlin, for that matter). "Those are decisions made above my pay grade," he said. "You're taught to salute and carry on and that's what we'll do."
Loftin said of the SEC decision: "His input was sought. It was never ignored… The decision was ultimately mine."
In the end, Byrne oversaw dozens of Big 12 titles and 17 national crowns during his tenure. None of those came in football, however. If they had, he might not have been forced into retirement. "The one thing I wish we would've done is win more in football," he said.
Aggies everywhere no doubt nodded in agreement.

DISGUSTED with how I was just treated by a staff member. Apparently your service department didn't want my business and told me to call Sloan Appliance instead!!! What a shame since I am buying a new investment home and need appliances for the entire kitchen and a washer and dryer..guess I will take my business somewhere else!
These folks are the real deal. Prices are usually competitive or a little higher (we've gotten some great deals), but the jewel in their crown is service. It is so worth every penny to call and have them tell you they'll be out today or first thing tomorrow morning. We have bought a number of appliances there, and wouldn't go anywhere else.
The only appliance dealer in Chapin - Good service, good folks – I have purchased several appliances from Wessinger's and have been pleased with the service and the people.
You can often buy stuff cheaper at Lowe's and Home Depot, but to have someone deliver to Chapin usually costs extra, and you never know what those guys will do when they get there.
Wessinger's brought out our new dryer, took away the old one, hooked up the new, showed the wife how to use it... all at no additional cost. You won't get THAT from Home Depot!
Good folks!

VeriSign Inc. subsidiary and security intelligence specialist iDefense reported this week that it has discovered hard-coded commands within the recent Sober-X variant that intended to launch the next wave of Sober assaults on Jan. 5, 2006.
According to iDefense, the planned attack was discovered by reverse-engineering the Sober-X variant
Ramses Martinez, director of malicious code operations with iDefense, said that starting on Jan. 5, the worm would begin generating a series of dynamic URLs specific to domains in Germany and Austria. From those domains it would attempt to download the next portion of code to carry out the attack.
"We don't know what the code is going to do, so it may be anything," Martinez said. "Based on the functionality and experiences we've had with Sober, we assume that it will be used for sending spam, but it's really impossible to know for sure."
Sober has unquestionably been the most publicized worm of 2005. Dozens of variants, many of which have been mass-mailers, have been on the loose at various points throughout the year.
One such outbreak happened in May, when the Sober-N worm dropped the Sober-Q Trojan on compromised machines and began spewing messages touting German nationalism. Interestingly, the Sober strike slated for Jan. 5 would be the 87th anniversary of the founding of Germany's Nazi party.
More recently, in addition to the mid-November variants, just after Thanksgiving antivirus firms discovered that the latest iteration, Sober-Z, was spreading spam so quickly that it accounted for a staggering one in 14 e-mails traveling across the Internet.
The early warning though may have largely mitigated any potential damage. Allysa Myers, virus research manager with Santa Clara, Calif.-based McAfee Inc.'s AVERT Research Center, said that it remains to be seen whether the upcoming Sober variant will still be able to download itself on Jan. 5.
"Any number of things could be put into that file location between now and then," Myers said. "It's likely that between now and the fifth, the site where it's trying to get downloads from will be taken down."
Martinez agreed, saying that several antivirus firms along with German authorities and ISPs are working diligently to track down the source of this and past Sober variants.
Though Sober has received copious media attention due to its many iterations, Myers said it shouldn't be considered as great of a threat as some other worms, most notably the IRCbot.
"IRCbot has been spreading much of the spam this year and has been used for all sorts of criminal purposes," she said. "It's been used for DoS attacks against Web sites, for extortion purposes and for sending spam, all sorts of nasty things."
Still, Martinez said this discovery shows that Sober and other types of mass-mailer worms are still a threat.
"It's been said that they are a thing of the past, but they really aren't," Martinez said. "As we saw in the past few weeks, they can still have a pretty big impact. Although e-mail worms aren't as big of a threat to the enterprise as they were two years ago, they can still cause enough disruption to affect them, and we're going to see these things for a while to come."

Google TV Based on Android Plans to go Open Next Summer
SDK will be available early 2011, compatible with Android apps that don't require phone services to function.
In addition to Android 2.2, the other major announcement at Google's I/O conference keynote was Google TV, an Android 2.1 based, Intel chip powered device that adds search and web integration to televisions and DVRs.
The device uses the proprietary Chrome browser to display Web pages and also makes use of Flash 10.1.
What's interesting for open source enthusiasts is the way Google TV interacts with the Android Marketplace. Any application that doesn't require the use of phone-specific features will work on Google TV, opening up an entirely new platform for app development.
Like Android 2.2, Google TV distributes apps through the cloud, so if an app is downloaded on a computer or mobile device, it will appear on Google TV automatically.
Google TV launches Fall 2010. An SDK for Google TV will be available Winter 2011, with the entire project expected to go open source, integrating back into the Android and Chrome source trees. Google CEO Eric Schmidt said that it was the victory of open source that made the project possible.

The legions of Freddy the Pig fans will know that in the very first Freddy book (To and Again), our friend Freddy wasn't the hero; he was just one of the 13 Bean Farm animals who took a vacation trip to Florida. Similarly, in the second volume in the then nascent series (More To and Again, in which the gang journeyed to the North Pole), Freddy was, at best, a costar. Yet, by volume 3 (Freddy the Detective), the plucky pig was front and center, the indisputable star. How did this evolution come to pass? Well, when Walter R. Brooks, Freddy's creator, was asked why a pig instead of a dog or a cat should have become his "permanent hero," he mused in reply, "Perhaps it is because Kurt Wiese draws such very sympathetic pigs."
The simpatico Wiese (pronounced we-see) was, of course, the man who—with dash and verve—illustrated all 26 Freddy books; the man who gave Freddy a face (and a full figure!). With more than 400 books to his credit, Wiese was one of the most prolific and gifted children's-book illustrators of the twentieth century. The critic Barbara Bader has written that Wiese had "an outstanding visual memory. He could work in a variety of mediums and styles, draw animals and people with equal sympathy, convey ideas and information effectively, and he became, almost immediately, the most versatile and productive artist in the field of children's books." How's that for high praise?
Like many other celebrated illustrators who began working in the U.S. in the 1920s and '30s, Wiese (1887–1974) was an immigrant, having been born in Minden, Germany, where, as he put it, he grew up "under a remarkable collection of paintings of the Dusseldorf School." Nevertheless, he was not encouraged to study art; instead, he was sent to Hamburg to learn the import-export trade. "After being able to count the threads of a ten-shilling shirting just by feeling it with my hand," he once recalled, "I was sent out to China." Arriving in 1909, when he was just 22, he spent the next five years traveling, trading, and becoming conversant in Chinese. With the outbreak of WWI, he was taken prisoner by the Japanese in 1914 and turned over to the British. The next five years were spent as a prisoner of war, one year in Hong Kong and four in Australia. It was there that he discovered his gift for illustration. "Deeply impressed by the landscape and the animal world of Australia, I began to take up drawing and writing." Returning to Germany in 1919 with a bulging sketchbook, he worked for four years designing children's books and sets for a film company. Then, longing, he said, "to live under a warm sun again," he set sail for Brazil in 1923 and spent a year "traveling through jungles, surviving a revolution, and meeting Indians." Following these adventures, he settled down and spent the next three years illustrating textbooks and children's books for a Brazilian publisher. He also did work for a newspaper drawing cartoons and a weekly children's page.
Then came 1927 and "wanderlust again," Wiese recalled. "This time, the call of the North. I landed," he continued, "on a gray winter morning at a snow-covered pier in Hoboken, New Jersey, was taken to Ellis Island for a glass of milk and a sandwich and then came long weeks of traveling through the canyons of Manhattan with a collection of sample drawings under my arm."
History suggests that not too many of those weeks were spent trudging through Manhattan canyons, since a job with Collier's Weekly soon materialized, followed by his first two book commissions. By 1929, his career was in full flower as he demonstrated by illustrating the first American edition of Felix Salten's immortal Bambi. Though he may be best remembered for his remarkably fluid and dynamic line drawings (as in the Freddy books), he was also a master of the technique he used in Bambi: the lithograph. His work in color lithography is especially notable as in the case of Phil Stong's beautiful Newbery Honor Book Honk the Moose (Wiese had nearly as fruitful a collaboration with Stong as with Brooks, the two men working together on 14 books).
It was Wiese's life in China that seems to have left the most indelible mark on both his visual memory and its manifestation in his work. "He put the stamp of his style on China for a generation," Bader observes. Indeed, 2 of the 19 books he both wrote and illustrated—You Can Write Chinese and Fish in the Air—were each Caldecott Honor Books. More fondly remembered, perhaps, are the illustrations he did for Marjorie Flack's classic The Story about Ping, the tale of a little Chinese duck who is the last to reach the houseboat in the evening and to receive a "spank!" for his troubles. Ping is historically important for having been one of the first picture books to have been written by one talent and illustrated by another. Previously picture books had been both written and illustrated by the same person.
If China lived in Wiese's memory, the man himself lived, more prosaically, in New Jersey. Recalling his early days in America, he once said, "I married and bought a little farmhouse at the edge of the woods which cover the rocky banks of the Delaware River about twenty-five miles above Trenton, New Jersey. It's a good life. I can sit at my window and the animals come to me. They make me understand how they live."
Is it too much to hope that one of those animals was a talking pig named Freddy?

Accra Brewery Donates to 29th Farmer's Day Celebrations
30 October 2013
Accra, Ghana. 13th September, 2013: The Ministry of Food and Agriculture (MoFA) has today received a presentation of 220 cases of assorted products worth GHC 6,500 from Accra Brewery Limited for the 29th National Farmers' Day celebration. The event, which is slated for Friday, 6th December, 2013 at Sogakope in the Volta Region is under the theme" Managing Post Harvest Losses."
The package, which is a sign of appreciation to Ghanaian farmers for their significant contributions towards the growth of Accra Brewery and the nation's economy, constituted 20 cases each of eleven brands of the company, namely Eagle Lager, Club Premium Lager, Castle Milk Stout, Stone Strong Lager, Chairman Malt Liquor, Club Shandy, Castle Milk Malt, Club Cola, Club Muscatella, Club Orange, Club Quinine Tonic and Club Soda.
Ms. Adjoba Kyiamah, Corporate and Legal Affairs Director of Accra Brewery Limited, said during the presentation to MoFA, "We take a lot of pride in the use of locally grown raw materials in the production of some of our brands and at the beginning of this year, we launched a new beer, Eagle Lager, made from 70% cassava."
She stated that the cassava is purchased directly from cassava farmers in the Eastern and Volta Regions through their partners, DADTCO Cassava Processing Ghana Limited. She explained that they are currently processing cassava in Ve-Golokwati and its environs in the Volta Region.
She revealed that together with Club Premium Lager and Chibuku Shake Shake, Eagle Lager brings to three the number of ABL brands that use local raw materials.
"Our annual donation to the celebration of the National Farmers' Day is driven by our immense appreciation of our country's hardworking farmers, and Accra Brewery Limited will continue to support the occasion that celebrates the achievement of our farmers in the future," she said.
During the presentation, Hon. Amed Alhassan Yakubu, Deputy Minister of Food and Agriculture in charge of Crops said "It is heart-warming to see organisations that use farmers' products show appreciation and commitment to them. We want to assure you that the donation will be used for the intended purpose. We thank you so much and we do recognise your donation. The National Farmers' Day celebration would not be successful without your donations."
This is the 29th consecutive time that Accra Brewery Ltd. has donated to Farmers' Day and it continues to highlight its strong commitment to supporting the Ghanaian economy through increased use of local raw materials, thereby creating rural wealth.
This is a SABMiller subsidiary news release, it was first published in its local market on September 13th, 2013.

In Pictures: 14 Heart Numbers You Should Know
Beyond cholesterol levels and blood pressure, consider your sugar intake, exercise, sex life, and sleep
1 of 15
A long life free of heart disease does not come just from controlling the standard measures like blood pressure and cholesterol. Sure, keeping tabs on these indicators is essential to gauging your heart's health, but a few other numbers—some surprising—can be meaningful as well.
It's awareness worth having. The American Heart Association (AHA) noted in its annual review for 2011 that while the death rate due to cardiovascular disease in the United States fell between 1996 and 2007, the burden of the disease is still high. One in nearly three deaths was related to heart disease in 2007.
U.S. News consulted with cardiology experts to round up the target numbers you should strive for to keep your ticker in good shape over the long haul.

Shattered Lives: Immediate Medical Care Vital for Sexual Violence Victims
Publication Types
Publish Date:
March 2009
Through this report, Médecins Sans Frontières (MSF) shares its experience in
providing medical care, counselling and other forms of support to thousands
of victims of sexual violence in many countries around the world. The report is partly born out of outrage about the inexcusable acts that these people have been subjected to and the damage inflicted upon their lives. It demonstrates why it is imperative to make immediate care available, and truly accessible, for those who have been sexually assaulted. MSF hopes that this report will inform and inspire health officials, aid workers and others who should be involved in providing such support.

February 21st ONLY - pay what you will (at the door) Directed by John Jaeger STARRING: James Heath Brad Craddock Mark Casey David Woodworth Aiden Baker Jeff Miller Ed Scutt Pulitzer Prize–winning playwright David Mamet's ROMANCE is an uproarious, take-no-prisoners courtroom comedy that gleefully lampoons everyone from lawyers and judges, to Arabs and Jews, to gays and chiropractors. It's hay fever season, and in a courtroom a judge is popping antihistamines. He listens to the testimony of a Jewish chiropractor, who's a liar, according to his anti-Semitic defense attorney. The prosecutor, a homosexual, is having a domestic squabble with his lover, And all the while, a Middle East peace conference is taking place. Masterfully wielding the argot of the courtroom, David Mamet creates a world in micro-cosm in which shameless fawning, petty prejudices and sheer caprice hold sway, and the noble apparatus of law and order degenerates into riotous profanity. "It made me weep with delight…ROMANCE is funny. Extremely funny." —Wall Street Journal. "A wild ride…An outrageous, hectic comedy composed in the hyperliterate pro-fanity that made him a legend…For fans of Mamet at his most joyfully vicious, it's everything you ever wanted." —NY Magazine. "An exhilarating spectacle…[Mamet] is a connoisseur of fiasco." —The New Yorker. "A fiesta of forbidden laughter…A giddy, glorious, bad-taste valentine…" —NY Newsday. visit our website @ www.limelightprod.org for more info!

2008 Community Events in Bayside
Over the past few years, the Village of Bayside has connected as a community in a variety of forms. From the weather events that defined each season, to the community gatherings that take place throughout the year, each resident has had an opportunity to enrich their experience in Bayside.
Several events help promote the community spirit, connectedness and neighborhood pride. Over the past year, the Village's only park, Ellsworth, became a main focal point for events. The annual Village Picnic, Music in the Park, and Fright Night events are now all held there. The park provides a mutual meeting place that offers amenities to residents of all ages.
Siegel, Fehring, Christensen Win
First, I'd like to welcome the hundreds of new readers to this blog. Blog traffic has been 10 times normal this week, and I hope I've provided a service to the public with this election series. Stick around.
When I first started writing about Whitefish Bay's election, I attempted to be an objective observer for the public. I admitted I would make endorsements at the end of the race. After interviewing all the candidates, it was easy to select who I wanted to vote for .. it was excruciating writing about it. It's tough to pick one person over another and let the world know about it.
There's more to M.L. King's murder than race
The Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. fought strongly for civil rights. He became the non-violent voice of people of color,and he pricked the conscious [finally!] of White America. He forced America and Americans to deal with questions of racial discrimination, Jim Crow laws, school segregation, housing restrictions, etc. He remained alive doing this.
When Dr. King moved his crusade to labor, corporations, and greed of the few, he was killed. James Earl Ray was later convicted of King's murder. But James Earl Ray was a petty criminal who barely squeezed out a living. How did he end up being found in England? Who supported him? What strings were pulled and where did his new-found money come from? Certainly not from bigots who were opposed to King's civil rights activities. The civil rights battle offered many easy opportunities to kill King. But when it came to the economics of capitalistic/fascistic America, he had to go.
Pizza Joint, Aurora .. WFB grab-bag
Just a few quick items that may have slipped under the rug during the election frenzy.
The Plan Commission will have an interesting April 29th meeting. Two items:
Sal's Pizza (of Cedarburg) is interested in opening up in the old Ciao Café spot. This is good news, it's always good to have a pizza joint on the block. Dine in/Take Out/Delivery.
Aurora Health Care is renewing its application to start a medical clinic in the old Talbot's / Famous Footwear location. Here's where the fun starts. As I've written a number of times Silver Spring needs a home run on that property, and Aurora isn't it. One would hope the Plan Commission will squint at the zoning regs and come up with a reason to send AHC somewhere else.
Let's hope they read "That the establishment of the conditional use will not impede the normal and orderly development and improvement of the surrounding property for uses permitted in the district." and apply it with some imagination of what could be there.
Aurora "probably won't hurt"
A few more items about the Aurora clinic today..
A loyal reader reported back from Aurora's meet & greet at the high school. He stayed an hour, and estimated 7 other people drifted in. He said they displayed a number of posters of the project which included pictures of the vacant buildings on Silver Spring .. a not-so-subtle way of Aurora saying "See? Love us. You have no other choice."
The Cost of Opportunity
Between the remaining primaries we are getting reports on how much the candidates have raised for their respective campaigns. It will cost about $100 million to get some of the elected that will make $400,000 annually. If we ever thought about the other uses for the money? At least one of the candidates talks about the opportunity cost of a portion of the federal budget. More specifically, they will address the amount of money spent on the war in Iraq, and if we had used and money and spent it on domestic programs, we could have replaced bridges, schools, highways, and many other things. However, if we want to reduce the federal budget deficit, that amount of money would have had to have gone unspent. And of course, not a dime of it would have been wasted had it been better spent.
But what about the candidates money? All three of the major candidates are touring the country, or will tour this summer. And all three will have their hand out. They will be asking citizens about the country to donate to their cause and campaigns. Of course the true believers will donate-as they should. As noble and just we think that public financing is, I think it is among the worst uses of tax money. In fact, it should be the other way around. We should be using the campaign money to fund the programs that the candidates are talking about. Why waste all kinds of money on TV commercials that are run so often we become sick of them after one hour? That money could be spent on the first six days of a socialized healthcare program. That would give the average citizen, five days more of keeping their own money, instead of having to fork over to the government in the form of higher taxes.
Are Christians cannibals?
Lots of misplaced faith goes into our judgments about "other' religions. Wars have often been fought over trivial matters that seemed important at the time, but in retrospect seem tragically silly. Religious people are quick to judge others who do not fit their narrow path.
How damned am I, for example, for thinking that...
Shoreland Owls
In case you want to see some unique wildlife in Whitefish Bay .. there is a family of owls living in a pine tree on the 5500 block of Shoreland.
The pine tree is on the East side, and you really can't miss it. A little more than half way up the tree, you'll see some bare branches. I was told there are three owls, an adult and two teenaged owls.
What Climate Change Advocates Don't Want You To Know
If you've been outside lately, have you noticed anything changing? Does it feel like the universe is getting warmer? Perhaps it's the earth, getting warmer. Maybe it's climate change caused by man. Maybe spring has finally arrived.
One piece of news that you are not going to see on TV is scientifically based on what has actually been happening with the surface temperature of the earth. You may see it in a newspaper or of course it will be buried. This is the fact that they temperature of the earth has actually gone down 1° from last year. This is that I only watched temperature that the left-wing media has been convincing us that is climbing higher at an alarming rate. It is the subject, that Al Gore is now dedicating his life to. It may even be a topic for the presidential contenders later this year.
Purchasing ourselves away from democracy
I gotta have that! Oh, those shoes are so me! Last year's computer is so passe! Oh, a Hummer! Have you tried Kobe beef? I finally could afford a $300 bottle of wine!
are we doing to ourselves? And when another nation doesn't bend
to our self-spoiled demands or needs, invade, boycott, or shock and
awe! I want that! And the U.S. economy is totally dependent
now on our perpetual spending spree. What a group of
unenlightened, bourgeois boors we have become! How we kneel
to corporate advertising!
How I Learned To Stop Worrying and Love the 'Bama
So here's the deal. I love Hillary. That's a polarizing statement, I know. I also know that Hillary can be a polarizing figure. Though I feel that she is routinely maligned in the media and by politicos, and commonly the butt of sexist attitudes (overt or institutional), I can understand why some people dislike her. The sad fact is that most of the complaints against her are complaints that could easily be levied against any other--dare I say it--male candidate. She's bossy? She's self-righteous? Claims credit or exaggerates her role in world/political affairs? Gets her facts wrong? I don't know why it is that we've treated her differently than every other male candidate that's running for office. George W. Bush is notoriously stubborn in staying on point and sticking to his agenda. The role of the politician in society is to claim credit for his / her accomplishments. Misspoke? Misstates? Happens to the best--and the worst--of them. Nary a pundit blinked when John McCain needed Joe Lieberman to correct him that Iran was not supplying aid to Al Qaeda in Iraq, a mistake he repeated a few days later.
Further, I have to say this: there is no reason why America cannot or should not accept a woman president. Many democracies have had women leaders. And my favorite example is Israel. Regardless of your opinions of the middle east conflict, if Israel, a nation under constant threat, war, and terrorist attacks on home turf, can have a woman in charge, then why not America? Why not us?
Rep Newsletters
Whitefish Bay's own Milwaukee County Supervisor Joe Rice put out an e-newsletter today. I gotta admit, I love this kind of stuff.
How often do your elected officials communicate with you? Not very often. Besides the occasional news McNugget in the paper, you know very little of what your officials are doing on your dime.
The Bird for the Pope
I swear there has not been a golf story involving a tournament in the past 10 years, where it also had to include the status of Tiger Woods. There is also on another interesting parallel to this type of reporting, including the Catholic Church. Or for that matter, any religion story involving controversy. All references to Catholics have to include a tagline about priests molestation.
There was a time when the pope would come to the United States, and there would be pomp and circumstance. Now there's just circumstance. Of course, there's only been three popes who've come to the United States, however it's ruined for them already. Here's some examples: It doesn't matter if there is news coverage of a bizarre cult- at least they're not as bizarre as the priests. How about that compound of fundamentalist Mormons with bigamy? All those children are still not as bad off as the altar boys. And the Branch Davidians? The priests attacked the boy is there too. And what if Reverend Wright is wrong? Well, he's still not as wrong as the priests. Attacks like these are commonplace on the Catholics. Unfortunately, there's no one sticking up for the Catholics. It's become acceptable and politically correct. Yet it's plain wrong.Not all of the Catholics have been molested. This may come as a shock to many. If the same attacks were done to Muslims, have the world would be up in arms. Even though they are at much smaller percentage of Americans. The same can be said of the Jewish people. I'm not condoning or excusing the behavior of the priests who did do people wrong, but can we try to cut down the numbers from every mention? It's time to move on. I am getting compassion fatigue from the constant victim mentality.
Garbage costs, Recycling saves the Village moneySince the early part of last year, the number of tons of recyclables collected by the Village continues to decrease. As we collect your garbage, recycling and yard waste, we are asking to help preserve the environment and at the same time save tax dollars. In 2007:· Bayside residents generated 1,426.79 tons of garbage, or 682.5 pounds per person.· Bayside residents generated 425.4 tons of recycling, 203.49 pounds per person. · Bayside property owners generated 566 tons of yard waste, each residential property in Bayside generated 696.61 pounds per house. New in 2007, all 566 tons of residential yard waste will be mulched, composted and or redistributed within the community. This change in operations will save the Village between $20,000 and $24,000 per year. How can you do your part? Recycle more. Imagine if we could only reverse our recycling and garbage numbers!
The Flu Shot Fraud
The pharmaceutical companies clearly have to be behind this one. After an abundance of available vaccinations, we got reports that this was the worst year for flu in more than four years. This of course comes after last year when we had a so-called shortage of vaccinations. Of course there was no shortage, there was just the fear put in by the pharmaceutical companies that enough people would not get their shots so that more people would be consulting their doctors in order to get the flu shot. And of course who pays for these flu shots? Either the government or private insurance companies.
So why does an abundance of available vaccinations result in a larger number of cases? Well the easy answer and the most probable answer is that the vaccinations were not effective. We now know that there is a type A flu and a type B flu. The vaccinations only cover type A.
Giving and Taking
The deadline for filing taxes has just passed. So how did you do? Did you pay enough? Did you pay too little?
I believe one of the benefits of our current tax system (yes there are a couple of good things in here) is itemization. I believe the way the system is right now will encourage homeownership, higher education, and charitable giving. Advocates for a flat tax or the fair tax will disagree. We should be able to choose some of the not-for-profit organizations that we wish to support and have tax favorability for it. We can donate to either the church of our choice or a cause for which we believe in what the national head injury foundation or the American Cancer Society just to name a couple.
Which handgun would Jesus carry?
How many square feet would the home of Jesus have?
How many taxes for the poor, sick, homeless, disabled, children, would Jesus complain about?
The Presidential Race Home Stretch
Although it may seem hard to believe, we are about to enter the home stretch for the presidential race. Under the two-year process, we are finally getting into the last six months of this race. Hopefully, by this point, you have had a chance to make up your mind on who you want to be the next president. Looking back over the whole process let's ask, are we really going in the right direction?
A large number of people polled said that the United States is not heading in the right direction. Although I won't disagree with that statement, I'm still not convinced that we will be choosing the right person to head as in the right direction in many of the areas that we are now faltering. Over the past nearly year and a half, I have expressed dissatisfaction with the pool of politicians we were offered to select the next commander in chief. On one hand that may seem unfortunate, because we have very good people running yet on the other hand, I still think we could have done better. After all, this is the most open race that we have had for a presidential election in over 50 years. Is this the best we can do? Maybe it's not just the candidates, but the way we select the president. This includes the process in which we grill every move they make and every word they say. The proliferation of the Internet, cable news channels, and gossip tabloids have not made the process better.
Emmisions Testing-Did Anyone Notice It's Backwards?
In a move that makes almost no sense, the DMV has moved to exempt older cars from required emissions tests. Now I do not believe that more government regulation is needed in my life, but doesn't this moves seem a little backwards? Isn't it the older, less maintained cars that cause more pollution? Aren't the newer car supposed to be the ones that are more fuel efficient? How did this get out of Madison?
Madison, being one of the most liberal cities and the country, I would expect that the last thing that they would to is exempt older cars from being tested. Isn't this contrary to the global warming theory? More pollution is going to cause more greenhouse gases that will in turn, keep the planet and boil us all. And now Madison is letting this happen. And they go further to say that the reformulated gas and more ethanol will cut down on the pollutants that are coming out of cars made pre-1996. Yet I still have to ask, whose brainchild is this? Who thought it would be a good idea to inconvenience the people who are driving the war, well maintained cars and to give a complete pass to the old more polluting cars? It's got to be the Doyle administration in action.
Reverend WRONG?
Sigh. I thought things were going to change for the better, one way or another. Hillary won in Pennsylvania. For the first time in years, I made a political donation and became one of contributors to her $10 million post Pennsylvania cash influx. Days after posting an article about how I was coming to terms with Obama, I was ready for my second wind. Or third. Or whatever. And actually, briefly, I felt the race might become reinvigorated.
Then the media had to go and screw it all up. Damn media. They had to cover Reverend Wright's speech at the NAACP event. Now, of course Wright had to be there, which didn't really help. But the media, for some reason, thought his speech was newsworthy. Perhaps it was noteworthy, in that it would give the man some well-deserved voice, and an opportunity to clear things up. But that's not how it worked out. See, I have a theory about Wright. I call him an active-passive-aggressive. Passive aggressive because he acts in a manner that suggests he's not within the fray, but causes spiked reactions. Active passive aggressive because he relished the opportunity to take the center stage. I agree with Obama that the Reverend's comments and actions have helped create a distraction; and that he is attention-seeking. This is unfortunate because the venerable NAACP gave Wright an opportunity to be square with Obama. And Jesus. And, to a large extent, Wright blew it.

text: Popular Florida Foods A Slice of Key Lime Pie, Please! 9 Florida Food Recipes by Lisette Mejia 2/22/13 32 Reactions 14 Shares Print 0 8 6 0 0 As we enjoy the South Beach Wine and Food Festival, we'd like to pay homage to all the wonderful dishes that hail from the Sunshine State. If you haven't had a chance to visit and taste them firsthand, then we've got good news for you: you can make them in your own kitchen with these famous Florida recipes. Think seafood and Cuban dishes, and ready your taste buds for a whole lot of Southern savor. Mojitos What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 No roundup of the Southern state would be complete without a good mojito recipe. Get your fixings of rum, lime juice, and mint, and then give the classic drink a twist by adding raspberries and sparkling wine. 1 / 9 Kumquat Marmalade What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 Did you know the Sunshine State is one of the largest producers of kumquats and even hosts a Kumquat Festival in Dade City every year? Turn the tangy fruit into a kumquat earl grey marmalade for an unexpected toast spread. 2 / 9 Shrimp What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 Rock shrimp make their way from the state's East Coast-bordering Atlantic Ocean and straight onto the plates of many Floridians. They're known for being small with an extremely hard shell, but once they're cracked, we think they'd pair perfectly with three killer shrimp dipping sauces. 3 / 9 Oysters What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 Known for producing some of the tastiest oysters in the country, Florida gets most of its bivalves from the Apalachicola Bay. Ditch the lemon juice or hot sauce — and the restaurant — and prepare your own oysters with a Champagne mignonette at home instead. 4 / 9 Conch Fritters What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 Tasty conch fritters are another must-have treat to come out of the Florida Keys. The mollusks with intricate shells are usually fried and come with a kick; this recipe, for instance, incorporates just the right amount of spice. Source: Brown Eyed Baker 6 / 9 Cubano Sandwich What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 If you're looking for a true cuban sandwich, then look no further than a typical lonchería in South Florida. Find out what really makes it authentic, and how you can make it yourself, by looking past the slow-cooked pork. Hint: it's all about the buttered bread. 6 / 9 Slow Cooker Cuban Chicken What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 All it takes is 20 minutes — and a slow cooker — to take Cuban chicken from meh to marvelous. Then all that's left is for you to savor the dish's complex sauce and truly tender meat that you'd find in Florida's Little Havana. 7 / 9 Scallops What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 Many Floridians can't wait for Summer because it means major scallop season on the Gulf Coast. But you don't have to hit the waters to enjoy scrumptious seared scallop topped with rich wine sauce. It's so simple, even a beginner can master the recipe. 8 / 9 Key Lime Pie What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 You'd be surprised at how easy it is to whip up some sweet and tangy key lime pie, named for limes found in the Florida Keys. All you really need is key lime juice, egg yolks, and sweetened milk in a pie crust to join the ranks of those who've made Florida's official dessert. 9 / 9 0 8 6 0 0 Back to Homepage Comments Read More SOBEWFFFloridaCubanRecipes SOBEWFF Ruth Reichl Forsees the Future of Food 3/09 Jeni's Splendid Ice Cream Is Inspired by History — Not Trends 3/07 The Fabulous, Famous Chef Friends of Rachael Ray 3/05 Steak and Bone Marrow, Marc Forgione's Way 2/27 What Jeff Mauro Would Be the King of If Not For Sandwiches 2/26 Paula Deen: Then and Now 2/25 Get a Personalized Living Newsletter!

TOLEDO, Ohio - The fourth-seeded Iowa Central volleyball team settled for a split on the opening day of the NJCAA Div. II National Tournament Thursday at the Owens Community College gym.
After sweeping No. 13 seed Monroe in their opening match by scores of 25-12, 25-20 and 25-21, the ninth-ranked Tritons (35-11 overall) suffered a five-game setback to tournament host and No. 12-seeded Owens in the quarterfinals, 25-20, 23-25, 26-28, 25-17, 15-8.
Iowa Central, which is making its second straight appearance at nationals but just the fourth in program history, was without the services of sophomore outside hitter Nadia Morneau (sprained ankle) for yesterday's action.
"Against Monroe, we passed the ball well and were able to serve effectively," said ICCC first-year head coach Fredrick Wagner. "It was a bit of a struggle, though, with the loss of Nadia, but we did our best to make some adjustments.
"Owens is basically at home in front of a partisan crowd, and they're playing really well right now. It required a great game for us, and (Thursday) just wasn't the day for a great game. I'm still proud of our kids for working really hard and fighting back in several sets."
Awaiting the Tritons in the elimination round this afternoon is Wagner's former team and No. 9 seed Kansas City Kansas (31-7). Start time is scheduled for approximately 2:30 p.m. on Court 2.
