Quick and Easy Pork Fried Rice With Corn and Shishito Peppers
Why specify white rice? Brown rice works just as well, and it's tastier (and healthier, but that's not even the point), so why not just write "2 cups of cooked rice"?
Video: The Food Lab's Foolproof Hollandaise in 2 Minutes
I use your recipe now, but before the invention of hand blenders I had found a foolproof way to make hollandaise in my restaurant. I would add the hot butter to the yolk/lemon mixture, not too slowly, just enough to combine. Then I would plunge the whole pot in hot water and whisk like crazy. This would thicken the sauce just to the right consistency. No danger of overcooking either. I used to love watching that miracle happen every night.
Homemade Pancake Syrup
Sounds excellent and I'm saving the recipe for when I move back to Mexico next year. Meanwhile, as long as I live in a maple syrup producing Canadian province, I'll stick to that.

Tour Guide and Author Lesley Tellez on What Everyone Gets Wrong About Mexican Food
It upsets me that you make it sound like this lady is somehow a pioneer. That is disrespect for Diana Kennedy, who travelled all over the country learning to make authentic regional dishes, way back when nobody was doing that. I lived in Mexico for 20 years, and apart from recipes that I obtained from my Mexican friends and neighbours (I make a mean goat barbacoa), I used Diana Kennedy's recipes regularly, and I still make pickled jalepeños from her recipe.

5 Delicious Coleslaw Variations
For locavores, cole slaw is one of the most local foods you can get because all the ingredients (cabbage, carrots, onions) are grown locally and keep well over the winter.
I always use red onion and 2 proportions of apple cider vinegar (also a local product) to 1 of plain oil. One TB sugar per ¼ cabbage. I eat some every day except in summer when local greens are in season.
The Secrets of the Juiciest, Most Tender and Flavorful Italian-American Meatballs
Apart from the pancetta (not available here in the boondocks), this is my recipe and I can vouch for it wholeheartedly! The only improvement I've made lately is to use buttermilk, since I always have some in the freezer because I make my own cultured butter.
I make a huge batch and freeze it in portions in zipper bags so that I can have some at nearly a moment's notice (I defrost the portion in cold water if I'm in a hurry).
Tender and Juicy Slow-Cooker Meatballs
P.S. The sauce I make is a simple tomato one, that's why it only takes 15 minutes.

I don't see any advantage to the slow cooker in this recipe. The sauce can be ready in 15 minutes; add another half hour with the meat balls while the pasta cooks, and supper's ready! I must admit it's better the next day, though, that's why I always make twice this recipe, and freeze in individual portions.

Viewer Comments: Broken Foot - Symptoms
Patient Comments & Reviews
The eMedicineHealth doctors ask about Broken Foot:
Comment from: Nancy, 45-54 Female (Patient) Published: December 13
I rolled my right foot at work and since I think I'm superwoman, I assumed I just sprained it. It took a while but it healed. I still had problems (soreness, weak, etc.) but never went to the doctor. I finally relented and went to a specialist. He took x-rays and told me I had broken it and promptly put me in a boot cast so I could still walk/work.
Comment from: Dee, 45-54 Female (Patient) Published: September 15
I slipped and fell on a hidden step in a hot tub and broke my 4th and 5th metatarsals. I was given a black boot and crutches. After 4 weeks, the X-ray showed not much healing. Now after six weeks it's still painful and swelling every day. I have an appointment to see an orthopedic surgeon so not sure what will happen next.
Comment from: Margie, 45-54 Female (Patient) Published: August 15
I was at the beach. I was seating on a deck in a steel bar stool, When I got up I didn't know my skirt was caught in the chair , as I ascended the steps on the deck the chair followed me and landed on my foot. I have never felt that kind of pain in my life. My foot swelled up 3 times bigger than it was normally. The outcome was to have surgery on my foot within 10 days or I wouldn't be able to walk on that foot again. I had pins and a rod put in my foot and was told I should not put any pressure on my foot for three months. I am now in a boot that I can only take off at bed time and in the shower. The pain after surgery was very hard. I have eight more weeks before I can walk again.
Comment from: Barbie, 55-64 Female (Patient) Published: August 01
I hyper-extended my foot falling down some stairs, causing a broken foot.
Comment from: Cindy, 45-54 Female (Caregiver) Published: July 14
I fell when my foot went into a small pothole. I got up and tried to walk and fell again. By the time I was X-rayed, the doctors tell me that my foot was broken in three places.
Comment from: lakegirl, 45-54 Female (Patient) Published: July 07
I walk three miles, five days per week with my dog. My foot began to hurt like a strained muscle. My doctor finally convinced me to get an X-ray, which revealed that my foot is broken. Now I'm in a cast. I can't wait until this is over.
Comment from: firstname.lastname@example.com, 45-54 Female (Patient) Published: May 18
Very painful, swollen at least twice it's normal size. There is deep purple bruising across the entire top of foot ankle alongside ankle and on bottom of foot. It has now been two weeks and the bruising is gone, however, the pain is still very much still there and a large knot on the side of foot. My foot is broken at the third metatarsal and is broken and one piece is sitting on top of the other. Today I go see an orthopedic specialist and don't know what will happen at this time.
Comment from: Brendan Carroll, 55-64 Female (Caregiver) Published: January 27
My wife broke and dislocated her ankle almost five years ago and she is now almost hardly able to walk. She had steel plates and screws put in, and they were left there for two and a half years, then when her foot got bad, they took out the plates, but by then her foot was completely locked, and even physiotherapy can't work. The bones are touching off each other and her foot gets inflamed and very sore.

American Samoa And Commonwealth of the Northern Mariana Islands:
Employment, Earnings, and Status of Key Industries Since Minimum Wage Increases Began
GAO-11-956T: Published: Sep 23, 2011. Publicly Released: Sep 23, 2011.
Additional Materials:
- Full Report:
- Accessible Text:
(202) 512-3149
Office of Public Affairs
(202) 512-4800
In 2007, the United States enacted a law incrementally raising the minimum wages in American Samoa and the Commonwealth of the Northern Mariana Islands (CNMI) until they equal the U.S. minimum wage. American Samoa's minimum wage increased by $.50 three times, and the CNMI's four times before legislation delayed the increases, providing for no increase in American Samoa in 2010 or 2011 and none in the CNMI in 2011. If further increases are implemented as scheduled, American Samoa's minimum wage will equal the current U.S. minimum wage of $7.25 in 2018, and the CNMI's will reach it in 2016. Recent economic declines in both areas reflect the closure of one of two tuna canneries in American Samoa and the departure of the garment industry in the CNMI. GAO is required to report in 2010, 2011, 2013, and biennially thereafter on the impact of the minimum wage increases. This testimony, requested by Congress, summarizes GAO's June 2011 report, which describes, since the increases began, (1) employment and earnings, and (2) the status of key industries. GAO reviewed federal and local information; collected data from employers through a questionnaire and from employers and workers through discussion groups; and conducted interviews during visits to each area.
In American Samoa, employment declined 14 percent--from 17,852 to 15,434--between 2006 and 2009, and average inflation-adjusted earnings of those employed fell by 11 percent over the same period. In addition, roughly 2,000 to 3,000 temporary federal jobs will end when funding is no longer available. Employers in the tuna canning industry attributed most of their past and planned actions, including worker layoffs and hiring freezes, to the minimum wage. Cannery officials also expressed concern about American Samoa's loss of competitive advantage in the global tuna canning industry. Workers principally expressed concern over job security. Analysis of alternate models suggests that moving tuna cannery operations from American Samoa to another tariff-free country with lower labor costs would significantly reduce cannery operating costs. In the CNMI, employment fell 35 percent--from 43,036 to 27,897--between 2006 and 2009, and average inflation-adjusted earnings of those employed remained largely unchanged. Also, fewer than 1,000 temporary federal jobs will end when funding is no longer available. Employers in the tourism industry generally attributed their employment actions to multiple factors, such as immigration law and a decrease in the number of customers, more than to the rising minimum wage. Workers said they would like pay increases to help meet rising prices, but they were concerned about losing jobs and work hours. CNMI hotels have generally absorbed minimum wage costs rather than raise room rates. If this trend continues, scheduled minimum wage increases would increase hotels' operating costs due to payroll from approximately 29 to roughly 34 percent of total operating costs between 2010 and 2016.

We first saw David Stewart on the phone outside his home where Russell Sublett crashed a car, and exchanged gunfire with police during a three-day standoff.
Authorities were attempting to serve Sublett with a search warrant for a sawed-off shotgun, when a high-speed chase began in Glasgow, Ky., and ended in Stewart's home.
Now Stewart has his own legal troubles, pleading guilty to four counts of tax evasion from 1999 through 2002. According to the justice department, Stewart failed to report more than $640,000 in income, with a tax obligation of $169,000. His sentencing is set for August 16, 2007.

These unique cups make a striking statement as part of a dessert table. They are the perfect size for nuts, candy, or hors d'oeuvres. To use for baking, simply place the white baking cup in a pan and bake. Then place the cooled cupcake back in the foil wrapper. Just please don't put the gold foil cupcake wrapper in the oven, or things could get really messy!
Set of six 2" tall x 1-1/2" Round Cups with Gold Foil Holders.

a stark and brilliant new
story inspired by paintings
based on the film business
THE stand-in could now take the place of the actress under the rain machine; Phae Lavery was going back to her dressing room to rest until the close-ups. She beckoned her hairdresser and make-up artist with a slow flick of her wet hand; they ran to her, took up position on each side of her and made as if supporting her to her quarters.
The director called her back, and she turned, making her weariness a plain reproach to him.
"I'm going to have bruises tomorrow like Mike Tyson after the big match."
"That's why we're going for the scene - the whole of the scene - today."
The stand-in walked over to the puddles in the fake tarmac under the dripping lee of a SoHo fire escape, and looked over her shoulder for someone to take her dressing gown. Underneath, she was wearing the same light, swinging summer dress as the star, fastening with small mica buttons down the front. They were sewn on to press studs, so that when Jed Mulster, the male lead, pulled at her from behind, the buttons flew off easily.
The male lead and the stand-in were to perform the next segment of the scene in the rain, which Phae Lavery had refused to do. He had to throw his right arm round her, under her chin, and turn her till her body was bent backwards into a stretched arc. When he practised, the director saw her ribs lift and part slightly, like the fragile lips of a pink scallop, and he whispered an instruction to the lighting cameraman.
"That's how I'm meant to flip her around," Jed Mulster whispered to her. "And then - well, you saw - I grab her like this, and ..."
The director came over and pushed her head back so that it was hooked over backwards against Jed Mulster's shoulder and moved his right arm higher, so that he looked as if he was holding her in an armlock. Then he moved the actor's left arm down to her groin.
"Flex your hand. Yes, like that. Good, perfect in fact. That's the basic position. Now to the deed of darkness."
Jed Mulster's face would stay in view; the scene demanded his grimace of pleasure. She - his Cressida in the director's remake of Shakespeare's Troilus - was his whore, and the director wanted the brutality unbuttoned.
"You, Jed, think of something you really like. I want an expression of pure bliss on your face, animal ecstasy. You're appetite, the kind that cries hungry from the pit of the stomach and wants what it wants with no other thought. You're lust, greed, tyranny let loose upon the world, the enemy of innocence, the end of hope. So give this scene all you've got. And now, you - " He hesitated.
"Fernanda," said the stand-in, relaxing out of the pose, and throwing him a tentatively friendly smile, since she was working for him for the first time, and liked his films, admired the elaborate excesses of his aesthetic, his grotesque and unlovely visions of the damned.
"We both begin with F - "
A stand-in had no face, she had a thousand faces. Fernanda had gone to drama school, and registered with an agency as a model. She acknowledged she would never be used as a cover girl, she didn't have that kind of looks. But she had a figure, and she liked it being seen. Soon, casting directors came to know her work: her legs and her arms were in demand. Standing in for Phae Lavery had followed: Phae had a baby and a habit and the one had darkened her nipples and the other had puffed the skin on her body, on her thighs and upper arms especially.
In spite of the incomprehensible title and the rancid, unremitting cynicism of its squalor and savagery, The Gegg of the Pandar reached a huge audience after its release when the Americans refused to grant it a video certificate - not even at their highest exclusion rating. So a small-budget, bizarre art-house movie based on a lesser known Shakespearean tragedy became a $25,000,000 grosser and a cult film. Projectionists took out their razor blades and snipped the reels for prized souvenirs. A frame from the rape from behind in the rain became a favourite trophy. Phae Lavery's naked body in the gaping dress, arched and forced by a modern Diomedes, turned into an icon of the high street. You couldn't see her face, just the actor's hands, one jammed across her parted ribcage, twisting her right breast, the other shoved down against her crotch, with her head thrown back and her thin neck aquiver and stretched, and a glint of tooth, above the strange taut apex of her upside-down chin.
It had been a closed set when Phae Lavery was playing the events leading up to the rape, but the technicians were back and busy checking the rigs and the lights during Fernanda's scene. Still, some of them later remembered that she had stood in at the crucial moment of the notorious shot, and when they bumped into her, at a screening or a trade party, they'd nudge her knowingly. Some would say she'd missed out there, and yet others would urge her to take the case to the union and get some money for her famous ribs. It was now being bootlegged by art students and designer of fanzines and CD covers; it was rapidly becoming, on this side of the fin-de-siecle, what Monroe in The Seven-Year Itch in that white dress lifting over the subway grating had been in the Fifties. But Fernanda laughed, as if at the very thought of it. "Look at me," she'd say. "Think that's me?"
She had two small boys now, growing up, and she wanted to keep from them the knowledge of this kind of work in their mother's past. But also, though she hardly put this into words herself, she wanted to remain fluid, a woman with many faces; she did not like to be recognised.
The image came up in discussions about the prevalent complaisance of the media with open incitements to rape; Camille Paglia retracted, on several programmes, that she had ever said that women liked rough sex. Jed Mulster made a public service broadcast, earnestly advocating the use of condoms. The director expressed no surprise that his attack on the scabrous decade had become merely more fodder for mass fantasies. He would not offer any apologies: the obscenity was not of his making. He was merely a pair of eyes, a pair of ears. Phae Lavery for her part frequently expressed heated indignation, in interviews, when "that shot" came up, which it always did.
Then the photograph appeared in an advertising campaign for a famous brand of designer jeans with a witty and lubricious double entendre in the slogan. Phae Lavery sued; she pleaded mental distress at the image of herself raped circulating round her wherever she went. The defence of the designer jeans and their advertisers had no difficulty finding plenty of witnesses who, for reasons they did not quite understand, found it rather satisfying to testify in court that the famous image of Phae Lavery had not been posed by her at all.
The stand-in was traced; Fernanda was called to give evidence. Afterwards, when she went to pick up her boys from school, they and their friends looked at her curiously. Phae Lavery was awarded damages, all the same, as the jury decided that her grievance was genuine since everyone thought the raped girl was her. The advertisement was withdrawn, but the company did not care; it was felt that the image had now lost its aura.

i had my membranes stripped yesterday, walked a lot yesterday, and just got up (its 1am here) and saw my mucus plug when i wiped. i was 3cm and 50% effaced yesterday... basically does all this mean nothing? i can keep going around dilated and all without anything more happening? im so nervous and excited and everything one can possibly be. birth is scary... and wonderful. i think its scariest when youre sort of in and out of sleep and not really sure whats going on. if membrane stripping worked for you, how long afterward did you go into labor?
membranes stripped, lost mucus plug
Mommy to Jeryn (6/22/06) and Kaydence (6/28/12)
is it common to have the water break and not go into labor with the membrane stripping?
with my last I had my membranes stripped and lost mucus plug and bloody show for 2 weeks until I had him. Sometimes it works and sometimes it doesnt. If your body is not ready nothing will induce you
mommy to 5 soon to be 6!

Yea... it only works if your body is right on the edge of going into labor anyway. There are two risks when having your membranes stripped:
-accidental water breaking
I think PP was saying her water happened to break after her membranes were stripped, but it didn't break during the process on accident- and yes even though your water breaks you might still need to be induced :-/
With DS mine were stripped and nothing happened.
I will have mine stripped mon this time and I've been feeling a lot more constractions this preg so I'm hoping it will "work" this time...
I know it's hard to hear but yes, you can walk around at 3cm dialated for weeks :-/

Datalogic to Resume Paying Dividend, Seeks Acquisition Targets
Datalogic SpA, Europe's largest maker of barcode scanners, will resume dividend payments this year after posting "exceptional" results in 2010, Chief Executive Officer Mauro Sacchetto said.
The company, which didn't pay a dividend last year, will pay about 10 euro cents ($0.14) per share, corresponding to between 28 percent and 30 percent of 2010 net income, Sacchetto said in a phone interview. About one in three supermarket-checkout scanners throughout the world is made by Datalogic, whose clients include Wal-Mart Stores Inc., Tesco Plc and Carrefour SA.
"It's been a very positive year," the CEO said. "We've gained market share and I see no reason why we shouldn't share this with shareholders."
Datalogic, based in Bologna, Italy, said Jan. 18 that preliminary revenue for 2010 rose 26 percent to 392.7 million euros. Sacchetto said that last year's revenue and profit were already ahead of targets for 2011 in the company's three-year business plan presented in October. The CEO said the company may raise targets around midyear.
"I'm confident 2011 will also be positive and we'll keep gaining market share," Sacchetto said. "It will be difficult to replicate last year's performance."
The company, which has about 2,000 employees in 30 countries across Europe, Asia and the U.S., is looking at acquisition opportunities in the factory-automation business. Datalogic is seeking to add as much as 100 million euros in revenue at the unit through an acquisition, the CEO said, focusing on sensors, identification and laser-marking products.
"There are negotiations under way but we are not going to overpay," Sacchetto said. The company may finance acquisitions with debt or through a share sale, as "shareholders are ready to back us if we need fresh resources," the CEO said.

Preparing Applications for Deployment
Updated: March 28, 2003
Applies To: Windows Server 2003, Windows Server 2003 R2, Windows Server 2003 with SP1, Windows Server 2003 with SP2
Windows Installer is the engine for deploying software packages when you use the software installation extension of Group Policy. It is a core service of the Windows operating system, which enables software administrators to manage the state of software applications. The process of preparing applications involves determining the appropriate packaging method, as indicated in Figure 8.2.
Figure 8.2 Preparing Applications for Deployment
Windows Installer technology uses the following two components to help you install and manage software:
A Windows Installer package (an .msi file), which is a database containing information that describes the installed state of an application. The Windows Installer package performs the installation, modification, and removal of the software.
An application programming interface (API) that allows applications and management tools to interact with Windows Installer to install or remove additional features of the application after the initial installation is completed.
The managed state of an application includes installation, modification, upgrade, or removal. Windows Installer provides you with consistent and reliable methods to customize installations, update and upgrade applications, and resolve configuration problems. It can assist you as follows:
Helps you manage the state of software during and after installation.
Defines a standard format for application setup and tracks components such as groups of files, registry entries, shortcuts, and other aspects of the application that must be managed together.
Detects whether software is installed correctly or whether a program file is missing. It can immediately reinstall the damaged or missing files.
Repairs applications and ensures that they are installed or removed without overwriting or deleting files that are required by another application.
Enables you to modify an installation by adding or removing features after the installation.
Enables you to deploy 32-bit and 64-bit Windows applications (Version 2.0).
Versions of Windows Installer earlier than version 2.0 can install and manage 32-bit Windows Installer packages only on 32-bit operating systems. Windows Installer version 2.0 supports all of the setup functionality that is available in earlier Windows Installer versions.

Special needs children exhibited their talent at the 15th Punjab State Special Olympics, held in Sangrur from November 3 to 5. Over 446 differently-able children from Punjab participated in the event organised at War Heroes Stadium. Among the participants were 308 athletes from 27 special schools and 138 children from various districts enrolled under Sarva Sikhsha Abhiyan (SSA).
The students participated in different events like 20 meters, 50 meters, 100 meters, 200 meters race; throw ball, fast ball, and basketball and bocce ball. Students of Ek Prayas distinguished themselves in the event. Sandeep made the school proud by winning gold medal in 200 meters and silver medal in 100 meters race.
Mohit Arora, also of Ek Prayas won gold medal in fast ball and silver medal in 50 meters. Gagan bagged silver medal in throw ball and bronze medal in 100 meters race. Gurnoor bagged one silver and one bronze in 20 meters and 50 meters respectively. Sanky, Paramveer, Amisha and Nitin won silver medal in bocce ball. Chief Parliamentary Secretary Parkash Chand Garg gave away the prizes.
The chairman of the organising committee, Dr A S Mann said the 16th edition of the games will be held next year in Ludhiana.
The students and their family members were thrilled about their achievements and the familymembers were all praise for the institute for taking great effort to encourage student participation in all fields.
The president of the Social Action group, Samira Bector said: "We are very proud of our children and we will make sure that they are able to participate more in such events in the future. Such events not only provide an opportunity to such children to exhibit their talent but also boost their morale and make them more confident to face the outside world."

While there are class restrictions in the online career, you need to own a car in that class to participate in such a race. If you only own one car in that class, then you can only race that car online.

If you've never heard of TED Talks, you've really been missing out. Professionals from around the world give talks to groups of people (they must be less than 20 minutes long), and TED records a video of the talk and puts it online. The idea is that great ideas spread around the world and everyone has access to incredible inspiration.

Tampa — Delegates to the Republican National Convention here this week were surprised to see men wear yarmulkes walking through the convention floor and mingling with other delegates.
"People kept coming over to us all night and asking what we were doing here," said Judah Ribiat. "We said we believe in the principles and values of the Republican Party. One of them asked, 'How can we get the other 80 percent of Jews to join you?'"
The men — 14 in all — were from Lakewood, N.J., and had come at the invitation of their synagogue president, Dr. Richard Roberts, who three months ago sold his generic drug company, Specialty Pharma Co., for $800 million and has long been a financial supporter of the Republican Party.
"Our mission here is a Kiddush HaShem [the sanctification of God's name] — it's not for business interests," said Roberts, a medical doctor who also has a doctorate in biophysics. "I told everybody that sometimes frum [observant] people need to show others how secularly and 'with it' we are. Our mission is to be our frum selves and to let people see what frum Jews are. And the reception has been overwhelmingly positive from many senators, governors and staff people, and from non-Jews who just come up to us to say hello."
He recalled one non-Jew coming up to him with "eyes wide open and saying, 'Jewish conservatives?' He was in shock." (In fact, there were only eight Jews in the New York delegation.)
One delegate, an ophthalmologist from Detroit, greeted Roberts warmly and said he believes that four years ago he and his wife were "the only Jews at the convention."
"I told him that as Orthodox Jews we have many of the same values as the Republican Party," Roberts said, adding that he told someone who handed him a Romney button imprinted with the Star of David that he didn't need such a button.
"Because we wear yarmulkes, we don't need buttons for people to identify us as Jews," he explained.
Because of Roberts' support of the party and its candidates, the group has had private meetings with a who's who of the Republican Party. On Monday, they met with Utah Sen. Orrin Hatch. On Wednesday, just hours after New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie delivered the convention's keynote address, they sat down with Christie and 40 other governors for a lengthy meeting.
Each has credentials to get into the convention. With the help of the local Chabad, they have had the use of a Torah all week and have conducted morning prayers in a hotel in Clearwater Beach, about an hour from the convention center. Roberts said he decided on the trip too late to book closer accommodations. They arranged to have kosher food sent to their hotel each day from kosher caterers in Tampa and Orlando. And each evening at 8 p.m., they hold afternoon and evening services in a private lounge reserved for the Republican Governor's Association, a group dedicated to electing Republicans to governorships throughout the country. Richards is a member of the RGA's executive roundtable. And they watch the convention from the floor or from a private skybox reserved for the Republican Governor's Association.
One of the group, Daniel Lemberg, stressed that they chose to become Republicans "because of a thought process; we're not just fundamentalists blinding following a leader. Jews, as well as the Republican Party, should be affected by values and should consider whether it's time to stop following blindly values they had without thinking about them."
Roberts, 55, who was raised as a Reform Jew in the Philadelphia suburb of Abington Township, is a baal teshuvah, a returnee to the faith who has embraced an observant lifestyle. He said he became frum at the age of 30 and five years later married a woman who grew up frum; they have six children and all were raised attending right-wing yeshivas in Lakewood.
"I always felt a strong nationalistic attachment to the Jewish people, although I knew nothing about the religion," he said after putting away his tallit and tefillin one morning.
Roberts credits Rabbi Michael Skobac with helping him become a baal teshuvah. He said when their first child turn a year old, he and his wife decided to move from Yardley, Pa., to Lakewood because it had a "more developed frum community with kosher stores, shuls and yeshivas. … My oldest daughter is this year teaching Navi [the prophets] in a frum high school."
Although he said his parents were at first "reluctant" to see him choose this lifestyle, Roberts said that when he married and started having children "they both appreciated the superior quality of life and the relationships we had in my frum family."
Because of his success in the pharmaceutical business — his company was the only one to receive Food and Drug Administration approval to develop and market the gout drug colchicine under the Unapproved Drug Initiative — Roberts has given back to the Lakewood community. Four years ago he built a shul, Kolel Ner Avraham. It now has a membership of 130 men and boys who pay no dues; any contributions they make to the synagogue are given to the neighboring shul that had previously existed there. There is a waiting list for membership in his shul.
Roberts' contributions to politicians over the years got him into some difficulty only once. During the recall election campaign of Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walker — a labor-backed effort to unseat him — Roberts sent him a $50,000 check.
"What I didn't realize was that five days before the election, Walker had to publish the names of his donors and the amounts they gave. I was the second largest donor. Two days later, I received threatening e-mails from pro-union advocates threatening my company and threatening me and accusing me of being anti-worker. One of the single mothers who joined my company as a secretary and is now in a significant management position was incensed that I was called anti-worker and said the opposite is true. So because of those e-mails, I immediately wired the Walker campaign another $50,000."
Roberts said Walker called him after winning the election and apologized for the threatening e-mails.
"I said, 'No apology needed, it's not your fault.' He said, 'I guess you doubled down.'"
Roberts said he told Walker that although many donors might expect something in return, "all I'm asking for is that he maintain his integrity because that is important for the country. I'm concerned about the future of this country and believe the Democrats are destroying the incentive for people to be productive, which also leads to decay in society."
"If you want to be kind to economically challenged people in the inner cities, giving them money to not work … is well intentioned but misguided. The Republican way is well intentioned and properly grounded to help people up."
This was the first national political convention any of the group ever attended. Larry Mandel said it was "good to be here and good to be seen — frum Jews participating in the political process. I don't think we'd be here if we didn't think we'd make a difference."

Bravo Mr. Roberts!!!
I support your thoughts and feelings 100%.
What a beautiful Kiddush HaShem! Indeed. How to get the other 80% of the Jews to vote intelligently? After this week's shennanigans, with Debbie Wasserman-Shultz caught in her lie regarding Oren, and the Democratic platform first removing G-d and Jerusalem as the capital of Israel then, in a sham vote, putting it back in, I don't understand how ANY Jew in America can support this president.

Pakistan will release its most senior Afghan Taliban detainee, Abdul Ghani Baradar, a former military chief often described as the insurgents' ex-second in command, officials said Tuesday.
The Afghan government has long demanded that Islamabad free Baradar, whose arrest in January 2010 saw Pakistan accused of sabotaging initiatives to bring peace in war-torn Afghanistan.
He was arrested in Pakistan's southern port city of Karachi reportedly in a secret raid by CIA and Pakistani agents, an operation that was described as a huge blow to the group.
His release would bring to 34 the number of Taliban detainees that Pakistan has released since last year in what Afghan officials hope can encourage peace talks with the insurgents.
"Pakistan has decided in principle to release Mullah Baradar," Sartaj Aziz, advisor to the prime minister on national security and foreign affairs, told AFP.
Aziz said Baradar would not be handed over to the government in Afghanistan, but was "likely to be released this month".
Pakistani foreign ministry spokesman Aizaz Ahmad Chaudhry confirmed to AFP that the decision had been taken to release Baradar "at an appropriate time".
The announcement came two weeks after Afghan President Hamid Karzai visited Pakistan for talks with new Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif at which Baradar's release was again requested.
Afghan officials believe prisoner releases can encourage former detainees to talk to the Kabul government, although observers say there is little evidence those hopes have been realised.
Several prisoners are also understood to have returned to the battlefield.
Analysts say that Pakistan may be able to facilitate Taliban peace talks and help with logistics, but it cannot force the insurgents to the negotiating table against their will.
The Taliban brand Karzai and his government puppets of the United States and have publicly snubbed any prospect of talks.
Born in the southern Afghan province of Uruzgan, Baradar fought in the war -- covertly backed by the United States and Pakistan -- to expel Soviet troops from Afghanistan in the 1980s.
When the Taliban rose to power in 1996, Baradar's friendship with supreme leader Mullah Omar made him deputy defence minister.
After the Taliban government was toppled by the US-led invasion in 2001, hundreds of Taliban hardliners are believed to have fled over the border to Pakistan.
Although little is known about Baradar's more recent activity, Interpol has said that Baradar had been a member of the Taliban's so-called Quetta Shura leadership since May 2007.
At the time of his arrest, Baradar was reported to have been second or third-in-command of the Quetta Shura.
The New York Times -- which broke the story of Baradar's arrest -- said the commander was a close associate of Al-Qaeda leader Osama bin Laden before the September 11 attacks.
In early 2010, the Afghan government and the former UN envoy to Afghanistan said his detention had adversely affected efforts to talk to the insurgents.

Morganza levee bids dip by $1 million
Published: Monday, January 30, 2006 at 6:01 a.m.
Last Modified: Monday, January 30, 2006 at 10:46 a.m.
HOUMA -- The second time may not have been the charm, but it did result in a $1 million savings for a planned hurricane-protection levee.
Officials decided to try again when bids on the first section of Terrebonne Parish hurricane-protection levee came in more than $6 million over budget. The move delayed the start of construction by at least two months but appears to have saved roughly $1 million.
"I thought we would save more than that," said Tony Alford, president of the Terrebonne Levee Board, "but a million dollars is a million dollars."
The Levee Board plans to hold a special meeting this week to award bids for the work, if engineers determine the bids are acceptable, said Alford. The bids were still under review Friday by civil-engineering firm T. Baker Smith Inc.
The project, a roughly 3-mile section of levee beginning north of Island Road in Pointe-aux-Chenes, is part of the first piece of the Morganza-to-the-Gulf hurricane-protection system. Morganza, estimated at $788 million, is a 72-mile system of locks, levees, floodgates and dams designed to protect Terrebonne from up to a Category 3 storm. Work has begun on an access road leading to the site of the first Morganza project, a structure to support a natural-gas pipeline crossing the Pointe-aux-Chenes levee.
If bids are awarded this week, construction on the levee could start in the next two months, Alford said. The section is expected to take 12 to 18 months to build.
Members of the Terrebonne Levee and Conservation Districts board first accepted bids for the Pointe-aux-Chenes levee project last fall, but the lone bid received for the work in November totaled $15.1 million, significantly more than the $9 million budgeted for the project.
Soaring costs of fuel, materials and labor combined with the scarcity of contractors following Hurricane Katrina contributed to the lack of bids, said Jerome Zeringue, executive director of the Levee District.
The bid submitted by Thibodaux-based Ronald Adams Contractors last year, the only one received, came in higher than expected, even considering those factors, Zeringue said in November.
Alford said he feared accepting that bid would only invite pricey bids for future portions of Morganza.
In an effort to lower costs, the Levee Board opted to reject the bid, splitting the work into two projects in hopes of attracting smaller companies not competing for New Orleans-area contracts.
The Levee District recently opened bids for the two contracts. The first contract attracted two bids, a $5.2 million one from Low Land Construction in Thibodaux, and a $5.6 million one from Manson Gulf in Houma. The second contract drew one bid for $9 million from Ronald Adams Contractors in Thibodaux, bringing the total for the work to roughly $14.2 million.

We have a 3 bedroom house. Both my boys currently have their own room (my April 09 DS and Sept 11) . I'm expecting #3 in Feb, dont know the gender yet. By the time they would share DS1 will be 4 and DS2 will be almost 2 as baby will probably be in our room for 5-6 months. Some family members have said they don't think we should make DS1 "the oldest" share his room and should make the younger 2 share. My thought is the baby will still not be sleeping through the night at the point we move him/her and will wake anyone he/she shares a room with. My older 2 will sleep through the night.
I don't see a problem with my 1st DS sharing a room with his younger brother?! What are your thoughts/experiences?

It's great to have two talents QB's. They are by far the 2nd and 3rd best QB's in the state with Chuckie being #1. Can't wait for the season to get going. it will be a great year for the Cougs. They will be 8-4 even with a tough schedule. Mark it Down Crissy.

Two comments from the videos: quick hitter to the tight end. Need a lot of

Both quarterbacks, Taysom Hill and Ammon Olsen, are better than the QB's
playing at the little brother up north and the step child in Logan. Chuckie
Keaton is 0-2 versus BYU, including a loss last year to Taysom Hill. Advantage
Remember when Chuckie Keaton guaranteed a win over BYU in 2011? Aw...sometimes crow tastes so good.

Even with 3rd string QB's, Utah has had no problem beating whatever QB byu
puts on the field(including one of best QB's in country in high school).
Put whoever you want out there, Utah still owns you on the field.
Van Noy, Hoffman, Riley Nelson.. guess what they all have in common?
0 career wins against their rival!
2013 seniors will be 0-4(winless) in their careers against big brother Utah.
Know when last time byu went 4-0 against Utah?
After this year Utah will have had TWO separate 4-0 streaks in last 15 years

I love the arbitrary claim that Hill and Olsen are somehow better than ANY QB in
Utah. Clearly not better than Chucky (Are you a better team, yes, but he is the
better QB). And better than Utah's QB(s)? Based on what? 112 passing
yards against Hawaii? (Yeah, look it up) I remember this same hype last year
about Nelson. He was going to save the world. Give Hill a few games to prove
himself before you put him on a pedestal.
And don't quote me T.Wilson's stats. I'm not claiming he is better than anyone else. But time will tell.

I am a big BYU fan, always have been and always will be. We have some wonderful quarterback options this year, and I am grateful for that. I also respect the fact that other teams have great players too, in fact they're much better than most of the people that comment on these silly threads. Players in college football got there because they have the talent. BYU plays Utah and Utah State this year. I accept the fact that which ever teams shows up to play on offense and defense is going to win. My hope is that BYU shows up for all there games this year. I love college football! GO COUGS!

Beauty is a family business at Valeria Salon Med Spa Boutique, where co-owner Geri Palillo has been working side by side with her three daughters and a staff of more than 30 handpicked beauty experts for nearly a decade. Born into a family of cosmetic pioneers, Geri's own journey found her graduating from the classrooms of Vidal Sassoon and rubbing elbows with industry big wigs and their wigs at New York's Redken 5th Avenue Exchange. Today, when she's not busy personally selecting the Ray-Ban sunglasses and designer handbags that fill the shelves of Valeria's boutique, she continues to show off her styling finesse in the sunlit, marble-floored salon that constitutes one third of the business, showing her cutting-edge knowledge of the latest hairstyles through cuts, coloring, perms, up-dos, and straightening treatments.
Meanwhile, on the spa side of this three-part beauty haven, guests relax in private, Tommy Bahama-themed rooms as one of Geri's highly trained therapists and aestheticians administers one of six types of massage or body wraps ripe with natural ingredients such as ocean salt, ginger, or white tea. Facials tend to sensitive skin or revitalize dried out visages, and can also address the unique ailments of the male face, such as pores left from make-out sessions with monster trucks. The service menu also includes med spa treatments, such as laser hair removal, skin tightening and spider vein treatments and wrinkle-smoothing injections of Botox and Juvederm, as well as professional teeth whitening that combines the stain lifting powers of peroxide and light.

Gheen: Immigrants 'May Smile At You As They Hand You Your Cheeseburger' But They Really Want 'You And Your Whole Family To Die'
In an interview with the Tea Party News Network on Saturday, William Gheen of Americans for Legal Immigration PAC (ALIPAC) claimed that Mexican American immigrants "may smile at you as they serve you your cheeseburger or cruise across your lawn with a weed eater" but in reality they want "for you and your whole family to die."
Gheen claimed that Mexican schools teach students to hate America, so those who immigrate to the U.S. show "no type of mercy" to "anyone out there that's not a flaming socialist, communist or liberal" and will vote Democratic, based on "racial identity" and "what they consider to be reparations."
There's no type of mercy that anyone out there that's not a flaming socialist, communist or liberal is going to receive from these people. You're not going to be able to just stand up and say, 'Please, please spare us from this invasion.'
They're like, look, they're bringing in, they're using in drug cartels to bring in a new block of 80, 90 percent Democratic voters. And there will be no way the Tea Party or any other grassroots organization is ever going to be able to succeed against 20 million that are voting on racial identity and that will vote for more benefits and what they consider to be reparations. Some of them hate us for their perceived status in life. They're taught in Mexican schools that the reason they're so poor is because their evil neighbor to the north stole all their mineral-rich land, and of course our ancestors slaughtered all of their ancestors.
And when you teach people this from the time they're children, they develop a kind of hatred. They may smile at you as they serve you your cheeseburger or cruise across your lawn with a weed eater, but underneath it, when they look at you, they see a person who they blame to be responsible for their poverty and the genocide of their ancestors, and the only way you can make that even-Steven with them is for you and your whole family to die.
UPDATE: We have slightly edited the transcript of Gheen's remarks for accuracy.

Big news
Published: Wednesday, January 1, 2003 at 4:30 a.m.
Last Modified: Tuesday, December 31, 2002 at 7:13 p.m.
The election season that ended with a new Republican state senator, the ouster of two incumbents from the Henderson County commission, a hard-fought sheriff's race and a Republicansweep in Polk County topped local stories of 2002.
The Times-News Top 10 stories of the year is based on an unscientific poll of employees in and outside the newsroom. This year's ballot contained 42 nominations of major stories in Henderson, Transylvania and Polk counties throughout the year.
The Top 10:
1. Elections The primary season dragged on well past the usual date of May when a court fight held up the drawing of lines for the state Legislature. When the dust cleared, Sheriff George H. Erwin Jr. had defeated challenger Michael Brown with 59 percent of the vote to Brown's 41 percent. Brown waged an aggressive 15-month campaign that questioned the sheriff's budget, the use of a helicopter and the assignment of its patrol force. Erwin called Brown's criticisms misleading and ran as an experienced veteran who had modernized the department after his election in 1995. County commissioners Don Ward and Marilyn Gordon were tossed off the board, losing their seats to newcomers Shannon Baldwin and Larry Young. Another political newcomer, Tom Apodaca, upset county commissioner Grady Hawkins and local businessman Ralph Ledford in the primary for a new Senate seat and went on to win the Senate seat. In Polk County voters narrowly rejected a $15.5 million school bond referendum. In November Republicans Jack Lingafelter, Kim Talbot and Harry Denton won three seats on the county commission.
2. Factory shutdowns Two pillars of the region's manufacturing economy shut down, putting approximately 1,000 people out of work and driving up Transylvania County's jobless rate to 9 percent. The X-ray film plant owned by Agfa Corp., which under previous owner DuPont had employed 1,300 people at its peak, completed a shutdown it announced in 2001. RFS/Ecusta shut down and declared bankruptcy after management and the union representing workers failed to reach an agreement on wage concessions. As the year ended, the bankruptcy court in Delaware had ordered the plant to be auctioned.
3. Babe Ruth All-Stars Henderson County's 13-year-old Babe Ruth All-Star team won the North Carolina championship and advanced to the World Series in Abbeville, La., in August where the team finished fifth out of 10 teams, going 3-2 overall. In its run to the World Series Coach Gene Grant's team won the hearts of the folks back home and of fans in Abbeville for their hard work and determination. After losing their first game, the team and coaches pulled together to win their next three games before losing to Lakeshore, La., in the semifinals.
4. Child predator convicted Laurence McKisson, convicted on nine charges of molesting four children in Henderson County schools, was sentenced in January to 62 years in state prison. The jury took less than three hours to find the former teacher's assistant guilty of nine of the 11 charges he faced during his trial. Saying 53-year-old McKisson violated a position of trust when he assaulted the boys, a Superior Court judge sentenced him to the maximum amount of time in prison allowed under North Carolina law. McKisson had been charged with more than 40 counts of sexual assault.
5. Justus dies Nine-term state legislator Larry Justus died suddenly Oct. 20 of complications from upper respiratory problems. His death shocked the community and left Republicans scrambling to find a successor two weeks before the election. The GOP named his wife, Carolyn Justus, to fill the seat. Mrs. Justus, who was also the legislator's aide, said she will take up her husband's torch on many issues. Those include getting Interstate 26 widened and trying to reopen the Henderson County Correctional Center.
6. Bryson ousted Conflict at Blue Ridge Community Health Services culminated in the ouster of CEO Dale Bryson on Dec. 23. Bryson became the third chief executive since July 2000 to leave the organization, which has struggled to climb out of debt.
7. Bike Bash fizzles After weeks of lively debate, angry letters to the Times-News and organized opposition from neighbors, organizer Jeff Myron dropped plans to hold the Fourth of July Blue Ridge Bike Bash in Etowah. The promise of a $16 million boost to the economy did not outweigh in residents' minds the arrival of 30,000 motorcycle enthusiasts to the small retirement community. The town of Woodfin also turned down the event, and Myron finally held a scaled-back bash at a vacant industrial site near Biltmore Mall.
8. Prison closes The Henderson Correctional Center on Mountain Road closed in a last-minute state budget cut last fall. The closing of the minimum security prison housing 114 inmates put 33 people out of work and took away a cheap labor force for the county and the local office of the N.C. Department of Transportation. At year's end, N.C. Rep.-elect Carolyn Justus vowed to make reopening the facility a priority.
9. I-26 derailed Opponents of the Interstate 26 widening in Henderson County won a major victory when a federal judge blocked the project. U.S. District Court Judge Terrence Boyle issued an injunction that at least temporarily halts the planned $75 million project to widen the interstate to six lanes for 14 miles in Henderson County. Environmental groups argued that the DOT failed to do required environmental impact studies before approving the work. A final decision from Judge Boyle is expected later this year.
10. Murders A series of shooting deaths late in the year shocked quiet rural areas of Henderson County. On Dec. 7, 53-year-old Joseph Herman Levi was found dead in his home on Anders Road off Gap Creek Road near the South Carolina line. His son, 22-year-old Adam Steven Levi, was charged with the murder. The younger Levi's girlfriend, Erin Lynn Ashton, 17, was charged with being an accessory to the crime. Four days later, an Etowah couple was murdered in their home. Charged in that case was 27-year-old William Henry "Billy" Raines, a longtime friend of the victims, Philip and Pam Holder. Investigators say the murders of the Holders may have been part of a robbery in the home. A 1997 Nissan pickup truck and several guns were taken from the Holder's home. Raines was apprehended in Greenville, S.C., two days later in the stolen pickup truck.
Raines and Levi remain in Henderson County's jail awaiting trial
