Simply salsa
Recipes vary wildly, but you'll be surprised how easy these authentic Mexican sauces are to make
"That's OK!" she says. "What's great about Americans is that we take what's good about what everyone else does and make it our own. (Eating chips and salsa) is perfectly legitimate but uncommon in Mexico."
Has she ever seen chips and salsa on a Baja dining table? "No," she says, laughing, "For them, it's like eating crackers and ketchup."
When it comes to salsa making, Schneider has very few rules:
1) Keep it simple and fresh. Salsa is fast and easy to make, and the key to deliciousness is the freshness of ingredients.
2) Invest in a quality heavy cast-iron pan for slow-roasting vegetables on the stovetop.
3) Make salsas within an hour of mealtime, and don't refrigerate them.
4) Have fun! You're making salsa!
Everything else I ask Schneider about salsa making doesn't have defined answers. Should you use fresh or dried chilies? "It depends on the salsa, she explains. "Fresh salsas generally use fresh chilies, but not always. It varies regionally."
How about herbs? "Mexicans might use fresh marjoram or epazote, but not always," she says. Oftentimes the salsa is seasoned simply with a type of chili and toasted garlic or a bit of onion.
It's a recurring theme with Schneider: Keep things simple. Keep things fresh. She says, "Salsas are ridiculously easy to me. Yet, when you make homemade salsas, you look like a genius. You can serve the simplest carne asada or taco, but top it with the right salsa, and you're golden."
Given Schneider's expert tutelage, I'm certain that you and I will dazzle our guests with an array of savory salsas at our upcoming Cinco de Mayo celebrations. And just between me and you, I'll be serving chips and salsa at mine.
Mango Salsa
Versions of this salsa are wildly popular on both sides of the border, even though it is probably an American invention. If you can't get great mangoes, try orange-fleshed Mexican papayas, peaches, apricots or nectarines — whatever is in season and flagrantly ripe.
Makes about 1 1⁄3 cups
1 large mango, peeled, pitted, and cut into 1⁄8-inch dice
1⁄3 cup finely diced red onion
1 teaspoon kosher salt
2 teaspoons sugar
1 teaspoon white vinegar, preferably Heinz
1 tablespoon freshly squeezed lime juice, preferably from a Mexican limón
1⁄2 teaspoon minced fresh habanero chili or 2 tablespoons minced fresh serrano chili
1 1⁄2 tablespoons finely chopped cilantro
1 teaspoon finely chopped mint
2 tablespoons finely diced red bell pepper (optional)
Combine all ingredients in the order given. Let stand at room temperature for at least 30 minutes before serving. It should be used the same day it is made.
Raw Tomatillo Salsa
You'll wonder how you ever got along without tomatillo salsa — crunchy, acidic, full of flavor, just the right complement to rich food like grilled beef, pork carnitas or shrimp.
Makes 1 1⁄2 cups
6 medium tomatillos, husked and washed
1⁄2 cup diced white onion
1 large fresh serrano chili, stemmed
12 cilantro sprigs, stemmed
1⁄2 teaspoon kosher salt, or to taste

Weinstein Co. and Relativity Partner for 'Jane Got a Gun'
The Weinstein Co. and Relativity are teaming up to sign a domestic distribution for Jane Got a Gun, the Natalie Portman Western.
The deal will cap off on a high note the many ups and downs the production has faced in recent months, from losing actors such as Michael Fassbender and Bradley Cooper to having to find a new director when its original director left on the day of principal photography.
CAA is representing U.S. rights to the film, while Exclusive Media is handling international. Exclusive and CAA shared footage from Jane at the just-wrapped Cannes Film Market, both to domestic and foreign distributors. Insiders say Exclusive is in the process of closing deals for distribution rights in Eastern Europe, Latin America, Russia, Scandinavia and Australia. Other major territories were sold off earlier this year at the European Film Market in Berlin.
Details are unclear as to how the Relativity and Weinstein partnership will work since it is still coming together.
An unlikely hero who stepped in to aid the film — whose budget has grown from $15 million to north of $25 million — is noted attorney David Bois. His daughter, Regency Bois, is a producer on the movie, and sources say father and daughter have ponied up millions.
Other producers include Portman, Scott Steindorff, Terry Dougas, and Aleen Keshishian.
Jane's troubles first began when it lost Fassbender about month out of the start of production. Then director Lynn Ramsey dramatically left the day before shooting was to have begun in New Mexico.
A mad scramble led to director Gavin O'Connor boarding the movie which then lost some more actors, including Cooper. Cooper initially rode in as a savior but then had to bail due to scheduling complications caused by the Boston Marathon bombings.
With a domestic distribution deal underway, Jane, which is still in production, could ride into the sunset.
Pamela McClintock contributed to this report.

Stem of phal regrowing and accidentally broke
I have had my phal orchid for over a year now. I finally got a new spike to form and was looking forward to seeing new blooms. I was trying to place the stem along a wire form that was provided originally to help keep the orchid in form. As I was doing this, the part of the stem with the newly developing buds fell off. There is still about 12 inches of stem left and it appears that there are 2 "nodes" distal to the break. I was just wondering what I should do exactly? Should I leave it be just the way it is? Should I cut back the stem to one of the nodes? or should I completely cut off the entire stem to the base of the leaves? I have read some posts about putting cinnamon on the "open" part of he stem where it broke off. Would this help or hurt it? And do I need to worry about it drying out now if I don't do anything. If someone could please let me know what to do I greatly appreciate it. I'm very upset because I have waited 8 long months for it to bloom again and hope that there is a chance it still might. Thank you!
In my very limited experience and knowledge, I think I would NOT cut it further down at this point but only make sure the break is a clean cut with a disposable razor. I do not put cinnamon on the open part of the plant when I cut it but just watch it carefully. Maybe someone more familiar with doing this can comment.
I see no reason why your phal should not throw off another spike from this one but it will take some time.
As far as I know, cutting of the entire stem makes the plant spike from "scratch" which is desirable when you want the plant to rest between flowering. Cutting back to the appropriate node give the plant a "head start" to the next flowering...so essentially, you will wait a bit longer but not 8 months.
Hopefully, two nodes will propagate and you will get twice the blooms :)
Good advice from eyedee. Make sure the break is a clean cut. Leave the spike intact, but cut back to just above the nearest node, and down the line one of the nodes may sprout another bloom spike. The flowers may be fewer and smaller but at least you'll get flowers. If you cut the spike off, you may have to wait until next year.
Been there, done that!

Travel Blogs from Orton
Today (Saturday) we're having a day off and spending it at the Speke Resort in Kampala. It's a very smart place on the shores of Lake Victoria and has a large swimming pool.
Juliet was about to apply her sun cream when we noticed that what she thought was sun cream was actually Spanish hairspray. She had been using it all day yesterday at Sanga and wondered why it had not been very effective!
... 270 people waiting. The site here is very beautiful with a large garden rising gently towards the church. There is a big tree in the garden for shade. Because we were here earlier in the week and knew where everything was we were set up pretty quickly. Joe and I filmed an interview with Najita who I had met on Monday. She is an English teacher and had been complaining of a hammering in the head, later diagnosed as high blood pressure. She told us she was the oldest of 35 ...
... and keep the waiting line reducing. Tom saw a 19 year old called Ivan with virtually no sight in his left eye. He also saw a policewoman who was delighted to receive a pair of bi focals which fitted her perfectly. He saw 35 people today! Janet, Eleanor and I weighed and measured some of the sponsored children and gave them worming tablets, toothbrushes and toothpaste. Julia treated a lady with a Colles fracture so gave her some exercises for ...
Just us
... afternoon Nanny, Grandpa and Uncle Mike took Alexander, Lincoln, Rosie, Brody and Marni of to a pantomime (Aladdin) in Lancaster.
Matt and I went for a walk to the Midland hotel, back along the seafront, through Morecambe village. We had and Irish and Bailey's coffee and then braved the icy 1 degree conditions on the way back...to the mayhem of family dinner.
6 days completed, shortest & easiest today!
We are now in Orton, don't know where Great Orton comes from, but this is a tiny, picturesque village. We are in a beautiful B&B, The Barnhouse, and it is 3.30 and we are relaxing in the wifi, having showered and washed. And eating scones (Amr is) which are always provided round here. Today is officially our shortest walk, and we left about 9.15 with high cloud, some a little threatening and looming, but no rain on us ...

Tony Perkins Claims LGBT Community will Cause Anti-Christian Holocaust
June 10, 2014 by Hayley Miller, Digital Media Associate
Tony Perkins, president of SPLC-designated hate group the Family Research Council, stated on his radio program that he believes that the LGBT community will cause a holocaust against Christians. Perkins said, "I'm beginning to think, are re-education camps next? When are they going to start rolling out the boxcars to start hauling off Christians?"
Perkins was interviewing Nicolle Martin, an attorney for a bakery that was fined for discriminating against LGBT customers in Colorado, when he made the offensive remark. Martin agreed with Perkins stating, "…I guarantee that we are going to continue to see the witch-hunt…"
Perkins, of course, speaks out often against LGBT people: he authored the marriage section of the GOP's 2012 party platform, has dramatically proclaimed that marriage equality will soon lead to a "revolution" that will "explode and just break this nation apart," and even supported Ugandan legislation that would subject some LGBT people to prison.

I have it bubbling through for the next 24hrs. Very quiet and compact. Great Skimmer By Harold on 4/19/2013 Harold would recommend this product to a friend This is the best skimmer I have owned to date... and I've owned quite a few. The skimmer has only been in my sump about 4 or 5 days ands its already producing more skimmate than my euro reef did and I liked it pretty well. The water in the main display is noticeably clearer. I'm really happy with the Vertex Omega 150 so far. Great skimmer good price By Joe on 3/22/2013 Joe would recommend this product to a friend I have the skimmer running for 48 hours works great. For the first 24 hours the skimmer broke in and the foot print on the skimmer is 81/2"-11" not 11"/11" Stop looking and buy By Todd on 3/5/2013 Todd would recommend this product to a friend I've been planned my build for a couple months and was hung up on a few different skimmers. I was able to see one in person and all I have to say is don't bother with any other skimmer in the price range. So save some time and just buy it. You'll be glad you did. Great quality for the price... By Troy on 3/2/2013 Troy would recommend this product to a friend Great construction, very easy to setup...Follow the directions to break it in and it will work great! Well built By Renoreefer on 3/2/2013 Renoreefer would recommend this product to a friend Nice quality. Haven't got my wet yet but right out of the box it looks nice and solid. The directions say 7"-9" inch water depth with optimum being 7.5-8" with minimal water level fluctuation for best results Amazing Skimmer By JREEF on 2/26/2013 JREEF would recommend this product to a friend The Vertex Omega 150 is an exceptional skimmer. It is by far the most quiet skimmer I have ever owned. It is easy to adjust and the build quality is amazing (thick plastic, tight fitting, titanium screws). It prefers to sit in 7.5" -9.5" of water. I recommend it for anyone looking for a quiet and efficient skimmer. Worth the extra money! By MadCityReefer on 2/8/2013 MadCityReefer would recommend this product to a friend Right out of the box you can see and feel the quality! I was amazed at on how nice this skimmer is at this price point. Very quiet and easy to dial in. Had dark thick skimmate in just two days!

Getty Museum, Los Angeles
4 Reviews
4 Reviews
Favorite thing: The Getty Museum - high in the hills over Westwood - offers some fantastic views of the ocean and much of the city as well. The dramatic architectural and landscape design (Richard Meier) is everything you could hope for. The collection is itself pretty spectacular, but what impressed me the most was the way that the building was so well suited to its site. I hope that it is really as earthquake-resistant as it was designed to be!
Favorite thing: I absolutely love the Getty Museum. Incredible architecture, gorgeous landscaping, amazing views and of course an unbelievable art collection. I'm SO EXCITED about going there again! Check it out: http://www.getty.edu/visit/
Favorite thing:
Go to the Getty Museum. The building's architecture and landscape, let alone the art it houses, is magnificent. I go every year, and I'm still not tired of it.
Fondest memory: I used to spend summer weekends basking in the sun at the beach at Marina Del Rey. I would read a book, people watch, plane watch (taking off from Los Angeles International Airport), boat watch, jog to Venice Beach and back, and close my eyes to listen to the waves.
Fondest memory: One of the most beautiful places in L.A. has to be the J. Paul Getty Museum. Atop a hill in Getty Center, you can see the city below. You'll admire the gardens and artwork, which the museum is known for.

Winnipeg Free Press - PRINT EDITION
Historical novelist eyes underground railway
The Last Runaway
By Tracy Chevalier
Dutton, 320 pages, $28.50
After writing bestsellers featuring historical figures such as poet William Blake, British fossil collector Mary Anning and Dutch painter Johannes Vermeer, American-born author Tracy Chevalier turns to more humble characters in her latest novel.
In The Last Runaway, the London-based author of Girl with The Pearl Earring turns her attention to those quiet folks who ran the mid-19th century underground railway, a network of secret safe houses for escaped slaves on their way to Canada.
A young English Quaker woman, Honor Bright, recently arrived in the small Quaker community of Faithwell, Ohio, becomes tangled in the clandestine network because of her opposition to slavery. Known for her skills with needle and thread, Honor had packed up her quilts and travelled to America with her sister Grace, already engaged to an Ohio dry goods merchant.
But tragedy quickly befalls the Bright sisters, with Honor violently seasick on their entire voyage, and Grace dying of yellow fever just days after landing on American soil.
As life unravels before her eyes, Honor struggles to comprehend the culture and patterns of her new country. Pushed to marry in order to find a place for herself, Honor can't understand why her new husband's family, also Quakers, won't participate in the underground railroad.
Initially they ignore Honor's clandestine activities, but they soon expressly forbid her to feed and shelter the runaways. Compelled by her Quaker beliefs to speak the truth and help those in need, Honor gets tangled in a web of lies and deceit in order to save escaped slaves on the run.
Although pregnant with her first child, Honor chooses to run away herself rather than defy her convictions. She finds shelter at the home of Belle Mills, the sister of a local slave hunter, who helps the very people her brother seeks to capture by operating a stop on the underground railroad.
Honor picks up a needle to assist Belle in her millinery business, and along the way, learns a few lessons of loyalty, friendship and the necessity of few well-placed stitches in bonnets, and in life.
Chevalier stitches together a compelling piece of commercial fiction of a young woman caught between her principles and her family duty. The only solace Honor finds in her new country is in making quilts, but she realizes quickly that even patchwork is different in America.
Chevalier provides intricate details about the style of quilts Honor is skilled at making, writing long paragraphs about the techniques of the English paper pieced quilts, needle threading and quilting bees, called frolics, and the struggles she has in adapting her quilt-making to local styles.
Readers unfamiliar with the attraction of putting needle to fabric to create a quilt might find the sewing details slightly tedious, but Chevalier is just following her time-tested pattern of explaining her subject matter in detail, whether it is grinding pigment in Girl with the Pearl Earring or identifying fossils in Remarkable Creatures. Winnipeg novelist Joan Thomas released her novel on the early 19th-century fossil hunter, Curiosity, at virtually the same time in 2010.
Quilting metaphorically stitches together the layers of The Last Runaway, the first novel Chevalier has set in her native country.
As Honor grows to appreciate the beauty of American appliqued quilts, which feature fabric shapes sewn onto a large backing, she finds her place in her new country, transforming from a timid newcomer to an American firmly stitched into the landscape and culture of a new country.
Winnipeg journalist Brenda Suderman sews patchwork quilts in her spare time.

Sound Devices Hosts PIX Seminar At Los Angeles Film School
Attendees Get an In Depth Look into PIX Features, Functionality and Workflow
LOS ANGELES, JANUARY 12, 2012 â Sound Devices, experts in production sound and video products for field production, will host a PIX seminar at the Los Angeles Film Schoolâs LAFS Theater on Saturday, February 4 from 10 a.m. â 12:30 p.m. The presentation highlights Sound Devicesâ new line of portable production video recorders, PIX 220 and PIX 240, and will explore the benefits of using an external recorder to acquire the highest quality picture and sound in the field.
With the increase in popularity of high-performance, portable external video recorders, along with Sound Devicesâ recent introduction into this marketplace, the seminar will delve beyond the typical feature lists to highlight applications and usage of the product, from camera to post.
âWe are excited to showcase the benefits and real-world functionality of PIX at the LA Film School,â says Paul Isaacs, technical development manager for Sound Devices. âA broader range of professional and DSLR-type cameras being used today has created a need for portable production video recorders. We are excited to further educate the industry on how to easily integrate our PIX recorders into their workflow.â
Sound Devicesâ PIX 220 and PIX 240 connect to cameras with HDMI (plus SDI on the PIX 240) and record directly to QuickTime using Appleâs ProRes or Avidâs DNxHD codec. Since PIX recorders use ProRes and DNxHD, files recorded in the field can be used directly in post production, making the workflow simple and fast. The PIX 240 adds even more flexibility, with its time code and sync generator, simultaneous SDI and HDMI outputs, and hardware scalers. Both the PIX 220 and PIX 240 bring the companyâs award-winning audio expertise and performance to their video products.
To RSVP for this event, register at http://www.sounddevices.com/pix-la/.
Sound Devices, LLC designs and manufactures portable audio mixers, digital recorders, portable video recorders and related equipment for feature film, episodic television, documentary, news-gathering and acoustical test and measurement applications.

We also dip into the old mailbag and do our best to find a solution to a listener's dilemma - he is needing something simple to record his FPV video at his ground station from his Sony 600TVL camera, so if you guys can offer something inexpensive that's better than what we came up with, send me a link and I'll get it to him!
Be sure that you get in on our contest; it's sponsored by our good friends over at SlowBipe.com. All you have to do is email me your favorite RC Tip, or even post it on our Facebook Fan Page. At the end of August, we'll throw all of the entries into a hat and draw the winner. That lucky person wins a MiniBipe kit!!! We've had a ball reading the 45 submissions that we've received thus far!
This week's show and links can be found HERE

Lives in South, AK, United States

Hey when Domino's admitted their pizza sucked and changed directions, sales sored. One of the great PR strategies that few understand. Nikon obviously learned from the Domino's pizza strategy, although, I still can't say I am a "Domino's pizza fan"
Well IF that 300mm performs, goodbye Sony hello Nikon. One of my favorite things to do was hike in Glacier NP and take some wildlife shots. Getting older just made it too hard to bring my prior Canon 400mm DO. However, this is a game changer for old geezers (not that old but old enough) like myself if performance is there.
Paul Kersey Photography: can't wait for the warm weather so I can harass people with this. Seriously though, regulating usage of these devices is a must, or need I start shooting them outa the sky?
Let's try shooting them out of the sky before entrusting our government to "regulate"
If I could afford it, I would buy it in a second. I really miss my MF days and this looks like a winner. I still miss my Mamiya 7.
I owned the original 400 DO and it was my favorite lens of all time. I got some amazing shots of wildlife in Glacier on long hikes that were only possible with a lens of this length and WEIGHT. The DO has gotten mixed reviews but I loved mine and I look forward to how this thing tests out.
HMM, it may just "force" me back to Canon.
These are JUST the types of "upgrades" or "new releases" that cause consumers to leave a brand.
I love gadgets, what can I say. I rarely spend much time reading about most "new" cameras and browse more than read BUT this thing caught my eye.
Most "new" cameras are pretty much variations of an old theme with different sizes, sensors, etc but this is really NEW
I have no clue how it will ultimately pan out in real world settings and it seems somewhat heavy but I like it.
Too much negativity about this. Maybe it is just a "Polaroid" as someone has suggested but in a way even though the Polaroid ultimately failed it also had a huge impact on the paradigm shift in the advancement of photography.
Priaptor: As much as I hate to admit it, whether you like or don't like this camera or some of the other new Sony releases, they have the balls to innovate and bring new and unique products to market.
They might not appeal to all, they may cost more than some are willing to spend BUT they are not short with their innovations and have made REALLY serious inroads into the photo world.
It was an expression. I don't hate to admit it. What I hate to admit is that Canon and Nikon, to a large extent have lost their innovative edge.
I am now, myself shooting with an A7R.
As much as I hate to admit it, whether you like or don't like this camera or some of the other new Sony releases, they have the balls to innovate and bring new and unique products to market.
They might not appeal to all, they may cost more than some are willing to spend BUT they are not short with their innovations and have made REALLY serious inroads into the photo world.
How much more "good will" would Nikon have achieved IF they just admitted to the problem when it was first discovered. This stuff never ceases to amaze me.
I have to say, I have always loved Leica, but recently had to give up. When companies like Sony are releasing competing products with leapfrogging technology with in many ways better build quality, how can Leica continue with the old "repackaging" and selling for a premium OEM products for equivalent prices.
Before I get attacked for quality of construction, my X1 had its leather exterior peel off, my Leica M9 was a painted silver that marred easily and both cameras while I enjoyed and felt had something to offer as there were few competing in this arena at the time, today, I don't see Leica as a legitimate choice either from a quality for technological perspective.
Photato: FF stand for Fullframe Fixation.
The high cost of 36x24mm sensor production will relegate this line of cameras to the niche of affluent enthusiasts and given it a competitive disadvantage.
APS-H is the way to go. For 1/3 of the price and almost the same quality.
You know, FF backward compatibility is no longer that important, specially with mirrorless much shorter flange distance where it makes a lot of sense to go with the much sharper native glass.
"almost the same quality"
And you know this how????
"relegate this line of cameras to the niche of affluent enthusiasts"
Why is that? Depending upon the lens roll out, this may be a very competitive product to those HUGE DSLRs that non-affluent enthusiast pay much more for.
My take is you just don't like Sony, which is fine, but your premise is nothing but misplaced assumptions.
Now that is awesome. Awesome enough to get me back into shooting wildlife in the dark
Congratulations to all who now feel better that DPREVIEW have validated their purchases.
From my perch, the Pulitzer, especially for writing and almost as much for photography has become a political joke, similar to the "Nobel Peace Prize".
Having read every Pulitzer prize winning book for the last 15 years I think Joseph would be turning over in his grave if he saw where this has gone. Same for photography
Deleted pending purge: Trophy hunters do not need more scopes. What they need is more basic education.
Whosoever takes life to posess a trophy should have their head examined.
Taking photos is just as exciting and no life is destroyed - isn't it time already to put a global stop to killing sports?
As to the Nikon ad... Why do we think that any camera manufacturer would stick to high moral values? It's against the credo of mercantilism, and the motto there is "Sell, sell, sell!"...
Interesting perspective. So given your comments I assume taking a life if no trophy is involved is morally acceptable??
Funny millions of human lives are taken every year in the name of " a woman's choice" which from your political slant you probably support.
It's a slippery slope when you make yourself the arbiter of morality as you often find yourself contradicting your own hypocritical views.
Me personally I don't understand the thrill of big game hunting or hunting in general love the environment and am as conservative as they come but don't pass judgement as readily as you seem to. Incidentally are you aware that the daming of our rivers have altered ecosystems and wiped out species more than any other act of man? Should we knock them down to rebalance our sensitive ecosystems in order to restore equilibrium and protect and restore those animals you seem to love and want to protect? I'm game.
This is what the iPhone 5 should have been
Priaptor: What is the RX-1? The best lightweight 35 mm fixed lens full sensor camera with kick ass results.
What isn't the RX-1? All the other crap you wannabes are criticizing it for.
You show your ignorance. I guess you missed the point?
Schonbeck: I have a long history of photography. Fron 35mm film to digital starting with the D70, moving to the D200 and lastly the D7000. All great cameras in their moments in time. Ihave 27 000 digial photos in my iMAC. Last week I bought the RX1. Since then i have taken approx 200 photos. And i can honestly say i have produced several of the top 10 photos of my life in that week. That is simply fantastic. One week. 200 photos. And several would move into my top 10 spots. I would even say the top 1 spot. You can say what you want about this camera. But above is in my world beyond value for money. One week. 200 photos. Several top 10 of my life.
It is a fantastic camera

BY PETER RUSH, Investor's Business Daily
Mr. President, the campaign is over, now it's time to govern. I don't expect you to confess to being a tax-and-spend liberal, but you might want to admit most Americans are getting a tax increase. They know it and that will clear the air going forward.
And as you go into your final four years as president, the big issues that were ignored or kicked down the road continue to exist. Our children and grandchildren will pay the price if we do not act now.
Washington has a spending problem. Why a Democratic-led administration cannot find any place to cut spending is ridiculous. Now that tax increases on the affluent have been passed, it's time to address the other side of the equation.
Keeping spending flat for several years would be a big step in the right direction. Entitlement reform is necessary and everyone knows it. The steps will not be popular but are necessary, and the president must lead his party, not follow it, with specific entitlement reforms.
Tax reform is needed, but whenever that phrase is uttered, it means different things to different people.
The first place to start is with the original tax code — flat and progressive with few exemptions. Special interests on both sides of the aisle will fight for their special constituents, but some are certainly expendable.
(Does Hollywood really need a special tax credit?)
Our current corporate tax rate is the highest in the world, which makes the U.S. less competitive with its global rivals.
Under the current tax code, the small business formed as a Sub S Corporation or Limited Liability Corporation will pay 40% tax on profits while major corporations such as General Electric or Google pay close to nothing.
Doesn't this cry out for reform?
Undocumented individuals are another bipartisan cause that must be addressed.
Both Democrats and Republicans know that we are not going to deport 12 million people. And many of these young undocumented individuals have spent nearly their entire lives in the U.S. yet have no path to citizenship.
While there are emotional positions on all sides, providing a clear and predictable path to citizenship is the correct thing to do. It will take leadership and moral courage to accomplish it.
Energy independence has been a dream of politicians since the oil embargoes of the 1970s. The country is now on the path through technological innovations to finally achieve it. The implications for the U.S. and the world are profound because it untethers the United States from the world's oil oligarchies.
Our kids, at least many of them, are not doing very well. The reason, writes Harvard professor Robert Putnam in his just-published "Our Kids: The American Dream in Crisis," is the "two-tier pattern of family structure" that emerged in the 1970s and 1980s and continues to prevail today. Starting in ...
With Ted Cruz announcing and Rand Paul and Marco Rubio soon to follow, it's time to start handicapping the horses and making enemies. No point in wasting time on the Democratic field. There is none. The only thing that can stop Hillary Clinton is an act of God, and he seems otherwise occupied. As ...
Every day the Chinese go to work, Americans get a raise: Chinese workers, many earning each day about what Americans spend on a Starbucks latte, produce apparel, appliances and other stuff cheaply, enlarging Americans' disposable income. Americans similarly get a raise when they shop at the stores ...
Hillary Clinton's expected presidential run is being hailed as a chance to shatter the glass ceiling. That, of course, is nonsense. Hillary rose to power solely on her husband's sleazy coattails. She's not self-made. And it shows. The recent email scandal is the latest in a lifelong pattern of ...
It is amazing how a simple question can cause a complex lie to collapse like a house of cards. The simple question was asked by Bill O'Reilly of Fox News, and it was addressed to two Democrats. He asked what has Hillary Clinton ever accomplished. The two Democrats immediately sidestepped the ...

"Another great stay!"
This is our 2nd time staying at Villa Miramar in as many years and it exceeded the previous stay with the owners improving it even further! The facilities are second to none but the location makes it even more appealing. You really don't need a car getting about the local area, beach 5 mins walk with numerous bars, restaurants and shops, the town of Nerja is a 15 minute walk with even more facilities. We're already planning coming back next year!

"Beautiful villa - perfect family holiday!"
We always say we'll write reviews of our holidays, but never seem to get round to it, but after this holiday – a review is a must! We truly had an amazing family holiday from start to finish!
The villa is beautiful, spacious, extremely well equipped and very clean. As a family of 7, ranging in age from 9 months old to 65 – it suited us all. Especially the little one who loved her high-chair, travel cot and of course splashing around in the gorgeous pool!
We visited in June (16th – 23rd) and the weather was fantastic so we made the most of the bbq area most lunch times, then either walked down the hill to the beach front restaurants at Burriana Beach (max 5 minute walk) or took a taxi (max 10 minute taxi drive) to the centre of Nerja, which is very traditionally Spanish, where we found some truly beautiful restaurants.
The bedrooms are all very spacious with lots of storage space, the bathrooms are large and of a high standard, and the living areas are fantastic too. Because the villa is set over two floors, it offers enough privacy for friends travelling together but with lovely terrace areas, both upstairs and down – makes for a very sociable villa. Especially when you all meet together for a pre-dinner tipple … as we did every night!
The welcome book tells you all you need to know and recommends some great bars and restaurants and the pool guy (sorry we don't know his name!) was lovely and friendly when he popped in to check the water – which is kept very clean.
We really do hope to return to this villa in the not too far off future and would like to thank the owners, Cheryl and Andy, for making this holiday very special for us all.
Our advice? Book the Villa Miramar and you won't be disappointed!

"Fantastic stay at villa Miramar"
We stayed at villa Miramar with extended family (7adults) and 1 child (aged 1 year). The villa was spacious, well equipped and met all our expectations.
Unlike other villas that we have stayed, villa Miramar was in walking distance to all amenities. Nerja is a beautiful place to visit with plenty to keep you busy if you wish.
Andy and Cheryl were very helpful indeed making our trip stress free.
Would definitely recommend villa Miramar and hope to return soon.

"Absolutely stunning villa we will be returning"
The Villa Miramar is a truly fabulous villa which has been beautifully and tastefully designed throughout. It is immaculately maintained and expertly kitted out from top to bottom. The kitchen in particular has every piece of crockery or utensil you may wish to use.
