Very Comfortable!!!
By Benz11
from Fonthill, Ont
I am surprised at how well these fit. A little generous, but better than a little snug!!. The suede is nice quality and the stones on the toe are lovely. I love that the toe box is not too deep to avoid the front looking heavy. And, the lower wedge heel is just up my alley for relief from my higher heels. I ordered the black and the blue,(it is really purple), and have decided to keep them both.

Castleton vault situation called 'pitiful'By Lucia Suarez
STAFF WRITER | January 11,2013Albert J. Marro / Staff Photo
Castleton Town Clerk Katy Thornblade strains to open the temporary outside vault, in which town records dating to the 1700s are stored.CASTLETON — Conditions at the town clerk's temporary storage vault in Castleton have raised concerns about the town's records — and about those who work with them.
Cyd Isleib, a paralegal who researches town records across the state, called it "a very pitiful situation" that has deteriorated to a point where some paralegals may refuse to do title searches in Castleton until things change.
"I go to four or five towns a day and none of them are like Castleton's," she said Wednesday.
Growing concerns include inadequate heating in the storage vault, having to work a large metal door while carrying records out of the vault, and uneven steps between the vault door and the town clerk's office. The list could grow, Isleib said.
"If it's windy, snowing or raining, I will not go to the town of Castleton," she said. "It's not conducive to do work."
Town Clerk Katy Thornblade said she has gotten complaints from paralegals and researchers on what can be called "a disastrous situation."
"It's complicated," she said. "I have been trying to get things done."
An auxiliary heat pump in the container-like vault only warms the interior to about 45 degrees, Isleib said. The vault doors do not operate from the inside, meaning any time researchers go inside the unit, they have to keep it slightly open, regardless of the weather.
If anyone has to take records to photocopy, the records need to be covered in plastic bags so they are not affected by the weather.
"It's really unpleasant," Thornblade said. "If those records were destroyed, nobody could sell their houses."
The town of Castleton bought the temporary vault for $5,000 when the town offices were moved from a building on Main Street in the summer of 2011. The vault was used previously by two Vermont municipalities before Thornblade recommended it to the town.
It is now parked across the street from the temporary town offices, next to the town clerk's office. It holds the majority of the town's records going back to the 1700s.
Last year the town clerk approached town officials with a $5,000 proposal to build a roof between the vault container and her office, but it was rejected because of the cost. She recently approached the board again without much success.
"It's a matter of concern," Thornblade said.
Town Manager Charles Jacien said the town is working on addressing the heat issue but not much more. He said they have used the temporary vault just fine for more than a year and the records will be maintained.
"The documents in the vault are the responsibility of the town clerk," he said. "It's not the most ideal condition. We are in a temporary situation."
Rachel Muse, records manager for the state archives, said state law does not have clear guidelines on how vaults should be kept. She said the state keeps its at about 65 degrees with 40 percent relative humidity, but acknowledged that not all towns can maintain those conditions.
Muse said the main concern is the safety of the records and making sure they are secure whenever someone goes inside to handle them.
"Without any clear guideline in statute, there is little enforcement possibility," she said.
Thornblade said sufficient heat and a cover to keep out the snow, rain and wind, would be ideal.

U.S. District Judge Rudolph Randa lifted the threat of contempt of court and jail time, at least temporarily, and asked for additional briefs from Feldman's attorney and Justice Department prosecutors. A hearing is likely to … Read more

The Route 66 Marathon is gaining speed.
It's only been around for seven years, but this year the race sold out for the first time, and 10,500 runners took to the city streets this weekend to celebrate the event.
Each runner out here has come with a goal, whether it's to beat their time from last year, or maybe just to finish or to have fun, but for one that passion stretches a little further and it's personal.
Julie Weiss is what you might consider a serious runner.
The Route 66 Marathon is her 34th race since March.
"I'm running 52 marathons in 52 weeks to raise money for pancreatic cancer and the pancreatic cancer network," Weiss said.
The idea came about after her dad lost his battle with pancreatic cancer two years ago, only 35 days after his diagnosis.
"There was nothing like the joy he got when he saw me run," runner Julie Weiss. "Everything he did, he did big and so I'm doing the same thing. I knew I had to do something big and help raise money for pancreatic cancer."
But Julie's not just running races with the help of her blog, Marathon Goddess, she's raised $107,000 for research, and she's not finished yet.
"Now I have the center of the universe in me, there's no stopping us now," Weiss said. "We're gonna beat pancreatic cancer because that's my only competitor. It doesn't matter how fast I go, all that matters is that we raise enough hope, awareness and money to beat this thing."
In eight months, Julie has logged nearly 900 miles for the cause.
And it's a feat that's hard for many to comprehend, but one that gives her more pride with every mile.
"I'm not crazy," Weiss said. "I'm just extremely passionate about finding a cure.
And with each finish line Julie crosses, she feels little closer to her goal.
Julie clocked in at five hours and 13 minutes, just in time to get her medal, fly back home to Los Angeles where she'll recover until her next run in Seattle in seven days.

A Bay State solar panel developer that landed a state loan from Mitt Romney when he was Massachusetts governor has gone belly up — a day after the GOP presidential hopeful ripped President Obama's green-energy investments.
Lowell-based Konarka Technologies announced late yesterday that it filed for Chapter 7 bankruptcy protection and will cease operations, lay off its 85 workers and liquidate.
"Konarka has been unable to obtain additional financing, and given its current financial condition, it is unable to continue operations," CEO Howard Berke said in a statement. "This is a tragedy for Konarka's shareholders and employees and for the development of alternative energy in the United States."
The demise of Konarka could become a hot topic on the campaign trail because Romney personally doled out a $1.5 million renewable energy subsidy to the Lowell startup in 2003, shortly after taking office on Beacon Hill.
And on Thursday the GOP candidate was stumping outside the shuttered Solyndra solar-panel factory in California, blasting the Obama administration's $535 million loan as a symbol of "crony capitalism."
"If Romney gets a little bit of heat because he participated in some of these policies at a point in time, it's all fair in the world of politics," said state Sen. Marc Pacheco (D-Taunton). "He's criticizing on one hand, he's got to take criticism on the other."
A Romney spokesman could not be immediately reached for comment.
In its 11-year history, Konarka collected a total of $20 million in government research grants, along with $170 million in private capital. The company makes thin, flexible solar panels that its customers build into other products such as deck umbrellas, backpacks and portable chargers.
Konarka has fallen into the same bankruptcy shadow cast by Bay State clean-energy crashes Evergreen Solar and Beacon Power, both backed by controversial taxpayer subsidies.
Berke indicated in Konarka's announcement that he hasn't given up hope that a "rescue financing or acquisition" would materialize during the bankruptcy proceedings. He noted "worldwide interest in the company, including from the Chinese government" — whose subsidies for its solar industry prompted the Obama administration earlier this month to impose punishing tariffs.
Berke, who was not available for comment, founded Konarka in 2001 with Nobel Prize-winning chemist Alan Heeger and a team of scientists at UMass-Lowell.
Konarka has only $113,541 in cash remaining, according to a financial statement filed in bankruptcy court. That's after paying out about $715,000 in severance to employees.
The company's assets, which would help resolve some creditor claims, include hundreds of patents and patent applications along with a manufacturing plant in New Bedford.

Ole Miss Crushes Tennessee in SEC Opener
Posted: 7:43 PM Jan 9, 2013
Reporter: Associated Press
KNOXVILLE, Tenn. (AP) -- Marshall Henderson scored a career-high 32 points Wednesday night as Mississippi defeated Tennessee 92-74 in the Southeastern Conference opener for both teams, giving the Rebels their first road victory over the Volunteers in 22 years.
Mississippi (12-2) had lost 11 straight times to Tennessee in Knoxville since a 93-88 triumph on Feb. 27, 1991.
Jarvis Summers scored 16 points and Murphy Holloway and Reginald Buckner each had double-doubles for the Rebels, who have won four straight games. Holloway had 15 points and 12 rebounds. Buckner scored 13 points and pulled down 15 rebounds.
Jordan McRae scored 26 points to match his career high for Tennessee (8-5), which closed a six-game home stand with its second consecutive loss. Jarnell Stokes added 15 points and 11 rebounds.
Mississippi capitalized on a major edge at the foul line. The Rebels went 38 of 44 on free throws. Tennessee was 17 of 26.

I apologize for not being as present here as my colleagues. Most of the time has been spent at the piano, and if not, basically at Facebook and Twitter. I would be delighted to see everyone there. I enjoy the interaction and discussions, chats etc, rather than posting in one voice. Interchange of ideas is crucial. I will try to return here and contribute to this fantastic site! Please keep updated via the website www.jeffreybiegel.com. My webmaster recently retired, so I learned how to use kompozer and Core ftp. However, for posts other than bio texts, I found a new webmaster who will add new pages and updates.
Author ArchiveI admit, Facebook has taken me over. Since mid-2009, I have added over 2,000 friends–and most I know, and new ones are now in my FB 'family'. Some remarkable things have happened from FB–like the time when Jill Arbetter Karni found me on FB and wrote to me asking if I could perform Tschaikowsky's First Piano Concerto on less than a week's notice. I agreed, although I did not have the music with me in Colorado at the time. The piece came back to memory in three hours. The concert was in Bogota, Colombia, where I had never been. It was a fascinating journey, and the orchestra was splendid! The Richard Danielpour concerto project, "Mirrors", was premiered in February 2010, with the Pacific Symphony Orchestra, conducted by Carl St. Clair, their devoted and brilliant maestro. The PSO staff is quite special, and we'll be working again together in November 2010 for the World Premiere of William Bolcom's "Prometheus" for piano, orchestra and chorus, which will kick off a nine member consortium project through 2012. At the moment, I am proud to announce that the newly created Trio21 will be represented worldwide by Craig Urquhart, who happens to be a wonderful musician, composer and pianist too. He was Leonard Bernstein's assistant and runs the Bernstein Estate, and just started The Craig Urquhart Agency based in New York and Berlin and has some illustrious soloists and conductors. We are very excited about this, and, since our inception in January 2010, a generous grant will allow for Kenneth Fuchs to compose a piano trio for us, and, we are assembling a consortium for a new "Triple Concerto for Viper, Electric Cello, Piano and Acoustic Orchestra" by the master electro/acoustic artist and composer, Mark Wood. The inaugural season for Trio21 is 2011-12. During 2009, E1 released Volume 1 of the Complete Sonatas by Mozart (with my own Mozartean improvisation in the repeat sections), and, Naxos released the Vivaldi "Four Seasons" for solo piano, accompanied by solo piano arrangements of Vivaldi's "Concerto for Lute in D Major" and "Concerto for Mandolin in C Major"–all done 'by ear' by the amazing Andrew Gentile–a long time friend growing up on Long Island. Only a genius of this calibre can create a solo transcription just by listening to recordings of the original settings with orchestra without musical scores! In 2010, Naxos digitally released the World Premiere recordings for the "Millennium Fantasy" by Ellen Taaffe Zwilich, which had be commissioned by 27 orchestras and several private donors and foundations in 2000. With this work, Ellen's "Peanuts Gallery" and "Images for Two Pianos" are on the cd. Maestro Alexander Jimenez leads the very gifted Florida State University Orchestra, and, we enjoyed a week of recording sessions led by producer, John Hadden. John was a joy to record for, as he gently muscled us though the cd sessions. I return to the studio in June, with producer Steve Epstein (I still get goosebumps when I think about it!) for an all-Bach recording–and, I am just now working on the Baroque embellishments for this cd. It is a soul-searching creative project, one which brings me as close to the spirit of JS Bach as one might imagine. I am being extremely careful in adding the ornamentation, almost as though they already exist in an old edition. In my zany pursuits to keep commissioning projects alive, I began a monumental endeavor in mid-2009: the Ellen Taaffe wilich Global Commissioning Project–a project designed to join orchestras worldwide in cultural diplomacy, all the while keeping their share fees for the composer's fee affordable. We have five orchestras thus far on board, and anticipate more to come during this year. I do hope that 2010 is a good year for everyone, and that you are enjoying what you do and bring joy to those close to you. Hello everyone~ been a long time since the last post. Hope this finds everyone doing well and healthy! I can't believe I haven't posted since September 2008–I can pretty much blame Facebook for that–which takes up the time we have to share everything going on in our lives. Working on getting two new works ready for premieres: Richard Danielpour's "Mirrors" for piano and orchestra, and, William Bolcom's "Prometheus" for piano, orchestra and chorus–both to be performed with the Pacific Symphony in 2010. Created the first worldwide commissioning project which will feature a new work for piano and orchestra by Ellen Taaffe Zwilich. Premiere will hopefully be 2011-12, as there are several orchestras on board at the moment. Working with a new manager in Hamburg, Kevin Wood, who is very dedicated and very well rounded. This year also brought a beautiful orchestration by Lucas Richman for my 'Hanukah Fantasy for choir and orchestra. The LeDor Group, Lucas' company, will have it available through their web site. The Hal Leonarde Corporation will have the SATB/piano version. Please let me know how you are doing–hope we'll stay in touch–and feel free to stop by Facebook where so many of us have re-acquainted or become new friends. Best wishes, In the return to Brooklyn College, I noticed a difference in my teaching–as did my pupils who responded positively to it. I remember how my teacher, Adele Marcus played during lessons and was able to say exactly what needed to be done–I always wondered if I would be able to do the same, as a servant of the music, a transmitter of the traditions to the next generation. I think it finally clicked, at the age of 47! I felt the ease and flow of playing and verbalization for my students–well, most of them, and it felt, well, great! Can I keep that up for the 14 week term? Will they 'get it'? Will they improve? Do we, as teachers, always have that spark that flames the imagination of the student week after week? This being my tenth year at Brooklyn College, I have seen some amazing talents come into our midst, some achieving wonderful dreams now, and a new flock studying to make their dreams a reality. There is also a sense of nostalgia, as this will be our last year in the building before they start a new arts center in 2009-10–wow! Traditions are instilled in the cracks of the walls of the institution, but we will take those traditions into the next phase of this college as it develops. I wish everyone a splendid year of teaching, concerts, writing and everything that makes us musicians and stewards of beauty. A brilliant icon in the world of classical music in the USA, Mr. Henry Fogel, took time to generously focus and share his thoughts regarding America's own composer, Leroy Anderson. After many years of chiming in about Anderson's Piano Concerto, I am indeed proud to see the success of the concerto and its acceptance in the concert world. Due credit must be given to Erich Kunzel, who initially sought permission to perform, record and release the concerto, which he recorded for the first time in 1992. I was present at the performance in Cincinnati the evening before the recording sessions commenced, and was immediately enchanted with the piece. Erich graciously suggested I contact the Anderson family, which has evolved into a special and endearing friendship. After performing the concerto at its birthplace, the Grant Park Music Festival, in the mid-1990s, I had eventually convinced [the late] Maestro Skitch Henderson, founder of the New York Pops, to bring it, with me, to Carnegie Hall. I've proudly carried the concerto close to my heart since then, and was thrilled to have recorded it with America's own maestro, Leonard Slatkin. Leonard is famous for promoting, recording and premiering new works, and this occasion was, for me, an event. Here is the blog entry from Mr. Fogel: Leroy Anderson: An American Treasure, Unjustly Neglected In 1981, I traveled to Mexico (my first airline trip!) with my high school choir. Although I graduated in 1979, I was invited to accompany the choir, which I was very close to, having many friends still in the school. The choral director asked if I would perform a recital in Mexico City's National Institute of Fine Arts (Pinacoteca Virreinal) and I did, which was followed by the choir performance. I remember the concert grand was a Petrov and the sound reverberated for quite some time–quite beautiful actually! The altitude was an experience to get used to, for we followed our time in Mexico City with the long and winding road down to sea-level Acapulco. The old roads back then provided a movie backdrop, of beautiful mountains, towns, and the sight of Cuernevaca. We finally made it to Acapulco, and it was indeed enjoyable. A few years ago, I became friends with the Mexican maestro, Eduardo Alvarez. He invited me to perform now with his Acapulco Philharmonica Orchestra, which he founded 10 years ago. Some amenities I took notice of include a personal mini-van with private driver, their own specialty shirts with their logo, and a very dedicated staff. During my visit so far, I managed to find where I stayed and walked 27 years ago! Not much has changed there, but the rest of Acapulco is constantly growing and building. Once a haven for movie stars and celebrities, it still has the seaside charm and attracts international travelers, although, I am here during their rainy season. It rains heavily, then passes, though I am sure the January-February period must be drier and quite blue. As for Maestro Alvarez, he is a warm and generous man and formidable musician. We are already thinking about programs for next year, with pleasure!
Carl Fischer Publishes Two New Choral Works by BiegelPosted by Jeffrey Biegel in UncategorizedCARL FISCHER PUBLISHES TWO CHORAL TITLES BY JEFFREY BIEGEL "A Different Kind of Hero " Two-Part "Ho Ho Hanukah!

It is an unusual feeling as an artist to perform works by composers who attend your performances, to say the least. But I was not nervous, rather, inspired to give the man who wrote this truly fine work, a chance to experience another artist's rendering of his composition. The benchmark performance is Keith's own recording with the London Philharmonic on the ELP album, 'Works'. In the 1970s, 1980s, and perhaps into the 1990s, programming or offering a work as such would have proved fruitless, unless in an isolated situation. The piece was performed in Kentucky in 2000, and in China more recently. I plan to blanket the orchestras with this concerto, for I believe in its merits and accessibility to audiences–especially those who were raised on ELP. Here is a story about Keith and his visit: Here is a review of the performance: C-U Symphony, pianist sparkle in season finale "Leroy Anderson's Piano Concerto is like everything by this great composer of light music, full of glorious tunes and wonderful twists of orchestration. Biegel clearly loves this piece and played its stormy and tender passages from the heart. [Keith Emerson's Concerto no. 1] is refreshingly bold and saucy. Emerson is impatient with transitions, and there are many clashes of keys and moods, as well as wild endings to the first and last movements. The ghost of composer Paul Hindemith, of all people, turns up near the beginning, and the propulsive start of the finale owes something to the Khachaturian concerto. Biegel played with his usual brilliance, and during curtain calls, Emerson loped onstage to embrace Biegel and [Steve] Larsen." It will be a journey to take Keith Emerson's Concerto on the road, and to see who will find it attractive to program. It is a special work with its own sound, harmonic language and melodic invention. I think it's time has come. Back in the early 1990s, my friend, Don Pippin, told me about Richard Hayman, the veteran arranger, harmonica performer and conductor. He had already been the Boston Pops arranger appointed by Arthur Fiedler after Leroy Anderson, and recorded over 50 cds for Naxos, was principal pops conductor for orchestras such as the Saint Louis Symphony, Grand Rapids Symphony and others during his long career. I knew he was getting up there in years, and as the years passed, and our schedules conflicted, it seemed less possible that we would share the stage. Well, that changed this year–on March 15th. Our schedules coincided, and Richard invited me to perform with his Space Coast Pops in Florida. He plays golf quite regularly these days, and, at 87, he turns 88 on March 27th. That's one year for every key on the piano–well, not the Imperial Bosenforfer, as he said! I brought two works: Leroy Anderson's Concerto in C, and Gershwin's Rhapsody in Blue–the 1924 version with the original piano part, which has some 88 measures in it which had been edited out in the best known editions of the 20th century.Of course, Richard knew this piece his entire life, and also plays it on harmonica–a half-step higher than written! When I brought the solo piano score to Richard, which is indeed much larger than the tiny conductor score (Richard said, 'With such a famous piece, why can't there be a larger conductor score??!!) he decided to conduct from my solo version, which has all of the missing measures. His conductor markings are now added in my solo score, which I will cherish. I was taken with the fact that he was willing to do this version, which he had no idea existed. He liked it too. Many of Richard's arrangements are still performed throughout the world today. But watching him conduct his own arrangements was a gift indeed. He feels the music from the inside out, and conducts it as he sways to the music, with the energy of a young man, as though the music was just off the ink press. His arrangement of 'Mack the Knife', adapted from the Kurt Weill song, is genius. He plays it on harmonica with the big band and added strings, and then breaks into the vocal like Louis Armstrong! Simply divine! This 51-piece big band is probably one of the only bands of its kind, and they were able to go from big band to Gershwin, to Anderson, to Dorsey. We surely hope Richard will grace the stages for many years to come, but truly, this icon of his generation is rare, and the audience of over 2,000 filled the Baptist Church of Merritt Island, knowing that they were in the presence of a true master of his genre. I knew it, and was in awe to be able to play these wonderful pieces with someone like Richard Hayman conducting. His humility is inspirational, as he would say, 'I'll follow you–you're the soloist, and you know what to do with these pieces'. His interpretation of the second movement of the Anderson concerto was heartfelt–reminding me of how Skitch Henderson conducted it in Carnegie Hall with me in the mid-1990s. I am indeed blessed to have worked with these legendary artists. |

A couple of years ago I went to a Hanukkah party that started with the best wines to pour at a latke fest: Light, sparkling wines like Moscato and Prosecco cut cleanly through the delicious oil that clings to latkes. We ate batch after batch, which provided a continual reminder of the miraculous oil that burned in the Temple and gave us reason to eat more latkes! But each batch of those latkes was more gorgeous and delicious than the last, having been crafted from different colors of potatoes, vegetables and fruits. The apples came in the latkes as well as in the sauce, along with latkes made from deep ruby beets, purple and blue potatoes, bright orange winter squash, the creamy ivory and green of cauliflower and zucchini, and the earthy tones of mushrooms and broccoli, studded with brilliant pomegranate seeds. It has become clear that it's all the rage to bring the garden into the latke pan, with the myriad recipes that all these wonderful pancakes require. So I want to provide you with two master veggie/fruit latke recipes (one for vegetables, one for fruits), along with a syrup and a delicious cream that lowers the fat content of the requisite sour cream on our plates of latkes. The basic recipes use eggs and varying amounts of flour, potato starch and/or matzoh meal, depending upon the moisture content of the fruits or vegetables. Suggested combinations are given with possible spices and herbs, but if you have something else on your shelf, garden or fridge, try it out! Part of the fun is in the personality your own creativity will bring to your latke party!
2 lbs. vegetables, peeled and seeded as needed, grated on biggest holes of hand grater, or shred with shredding attachment of a food processor 3 beaten eggs 1/4 cup flour or potato starch or 1/4 cup plus 2 Tbs. matzoh meal (not cake meal) 1 Tsp. salt (or salt substitute) 2 to 3 tsp. spice or dried herbs, as desired 1–3 Tbs. fresh herbs, chopped fine Olive oil or vegetable oil for frying If you're using mushrooms, green onions, spinach, Swiss chard, mustard greens, leeks, onions, green or yellow zucchini, or Napa, green or red cabbage: Clean thoroughly, chop or grate and combine with other grated vegetables. For carrots, parsnips, celery root (delicious!), yams, sweet potatoes, beets or golden beets: Peel and grate and add to the mixture. Use in combination or by themselves with just grated onion or chopped green onions. For butternut, pumpkin or other winter squash: Peel, cut open carefully and scrape out seeds. Grate as you would any other vegetable. Once you have your vegetables grated, you may want to add a couple of potatoes to the mix to add starch, body and crispness to the finished latkes. Peel and grate the potatoes separately and let drain for 10 minutes in a strainer placed over a bowl. Discard the liquid in the bowl, leaving the potato starch in the bottom. Dry the shredded potatoes with paper towels, add to your vegetable mixture, and mix in the collected potato starch. Some great combinations: • Zucchini, winter squash and green onions accented with dill weed, mint, and ground cumin • Mushrooms, broccoli, cauliflower and russet potatoes with shallots, thyme, tarragon, parsley, a dash of mace or nutmeg, and a sprinkling of pomegranate seeds • Beets, winter squash and grated or green onions with ginger, cinnamon, a wisp of clove and a tablespoon of honey. Serve sprinkled with toasted pumpkin seeds. • Leeks, red onions, mustard greens, slivered almonds and Yukon gold potatoes with chopped garlic and chives. • Getting the picture? Use frozen green beans, if you have them, with some thawed frozen corn, basil pesto, shredded cabbage, a bit of sage and red pepper, and add a dash of orange juice or zest. Thaw frozen veggies and dry on paper towels before adding the eggs, starch and seasonings or the latkes will be wet and not fry correctly. To cook veggie latkes, be sure to use enough oil in the pan to almost float the latkes. My mom — and her mom — say that 1/2 inch of oil in the pan is essential, heated slowly to shimmering. Add a bit of latke batter to the oil when you think it's hot enough; if it sizzles but doesn't spit, the oil is hot enough. Make your latkes from 3–5" diameter but make sure they are no more than 1/2 inch thick or they will remain raw in the center. When a latke is golden brown on the first side, carefully turn over and brown on the other side. Be prepared to add oil to the pans. Remember that the latkes will be absorbing some oil as they cook and to ensure the 15th latke is as good as the first, the oil level needs to be constant. When you add more oil, skim the crisped latke crumbs from the pan so they don't burn as your latke frying proceeds, and let the new oil come to the correct temperature before adding new latkes to the pan. Depending on the party you're having, you can keep your veggie latkes warm in a 200º oven and serve them all together, serve them hot from the pan (sometimes your guests or family will grab them before you can get them to the oven), or freeze them flat, stack them and reheat in the oven in a single layer at 350º Yield: About 20 3-inch latkes
1-1/2 lbs. apples, under-ripe pears, quinces, or any combination, peeled, cored and grated 1/2 lb. russet potatoes, sweet potatoes or butternut squash, peeled and grated 2 Tbs. lemon juice 2 Tbs. sugar or brown sugar, if the fruit is tart 1/3 cup flour, potato starch or matzoh meal, or a combination 3 beaten eggs 1/4 Tsp. salt 2 Tsp. vanilla (optional) Herbs and/ or spices (suggestions follow) Mix the fruit with the lemon juice. Add sweetener, potatoes or squash and flour, potato starch or matzoh meal. Mix in the eggs, salt, vanilla and spices. Some delicious combinations: • Try apples and russet potatoes with curry powder, sesame seeds and sesame oil • Bosc pears, Yukon gold potatoes, rosemary, honey, black pepper, and thin-sliced red onions • Quince, apples, butternut squash and red potatoes, fresh thyme, a dash of ground coriander and cumin • D'Anjou pears, purple potatoes, sweet potatoes, fresh sage, chopped walnuts, pomegranate seeds, tangerine juice • Have fun by adding apples or pears to a vegetable combination for a fresh, sweeter flavor in your veggie latkes. Yield: About 16 to 20 3-inch latkes
The method for these syrups is so simple you can make them while you are doing anything else in the kitchen. When you peel and core apples, quince or pears for latkes, pies, cobblers or sauce, save the peelings and cores, put them in a large pot and cover with water to about 2 inches above the peelings. Add one cup of sugar or brown sugar for peels and cores from about six pieces of fruit, add a half lemon, sliced, a stick or two of cinnamon, one or two cloves, two or three slices of fresh ginger (optional), and a couple of sprigs of fresh thyme or other fresh or dried herbs. Bring to a boil, reduce the heat to a simmer, and let cook for a couple of hours, adding water to keep the level the same throughout the cooking. If you don't have time to let the syrup simmer for two hours, just turn the heat off and bring the syrup back up to a simmer when you're back in the kitchen. Strain out the solids and return the liquid to the heat. Bring to a boil and let simmer until the syrup is just thick enough to coat the back of a spoon. Cool and serve warm or at room temperature instead of applesauce. To make a truly delicious dessert sauce, bring the syrup to a simmer and add 1/2 cup of heavy cream for each cup of syrup. Simmer until the cream is completely incorporated, about 5 min. Let cool, cover and store refrigerated. Reheat to use on ice cream, cobblers, pies, strudels or cakes.
Lebneh is a strained yogurt cheese widely used in Israel and the Middle East. It's tart, creamy, delicious, and very easy to make. 1 qt. natural yogurt with no pectin, gums or preservatives. (Greek, Indian and high-quality domestic yogurt are the best, preferably whole milk. Lowfat can work well if the yogurt is of excellent quality) Medium strainer or colander Eighteen-inch square of clean linen or thin tea towel Three-foot length of kitchen string One qt. bowl or container 1 tsp. kosher salt or to taste Line the strainer or colander with the clean cloth and rest it on the bowl. Pour the yogurt into the cloth, gather up the corners above the yogurt and tie firmly together with the one end of the string. Hang the yogurt in its cloth bag above the bowl, tying the string to a kitchen cabinet handle, a shelf in the refrigerator or, at night, the faucet of the kitchen sink. Let the yogurt hang for between two and eight hours, until no liquid drains from the bag. Replace the cloth in the strainer and untie the bag. Carefully transfer the lebneh to a bowl and whisk or stir in the salt. Store covered in the refrigerator for up to two weeks. To serve, vigorously stir the lebneh till smooth and creamy and use as a lovely substitute for sour cream with any of your beautiful, fragrant, colorful and very trendy latkes! And have a very healthy and happy Hanukkah!

Police shoot, wound knife-wielding man in downtown Skokie
By MIKE ISAACS Sun-Times Media August 31, 2013 6:22PM
Updated: September 1, 2013 6:41PM
A Skokie police officer shot and wounded a man who got into a confrontation Saturday in downtown Skokie with a business owner and then lunged at police with a knife, police in the north suburb said.
The officer — who's been with the department for 14 years — shot the man after he threatened officers with a knife, according to the police. The 53-year-old man who was shot was being treated at St. Francis Hospital. Skokie police were notified by Evanston police at 9:40 a.m. Saturday that a man had grabbed a woman's wrist on a CTA bus in Evanston, and the bus was heading toward Skokie.
Skokie Sgt. David Pawlak said the man repeatedly lunged with a knife toward officers dispatched to the scene, then took off toward Skokie Boulevard, where the police confronted him and hit him with a baton and used pepper spray, which failed to stop him, and he was told to drop the knife.
When the suspect again lunged towards the officers with a knife, one officer shot the suspect, hitting him in his left leg.


text: Jan 30, 2011 - I didn't try this product sooner because there weren't many reviews from 2c-3a girls like me and because of complaints about drying time. Then CurlMart accidentally sent me a jar and told me just to keep the order after I informed them of the mistake. Well, Curling Custard has changed my life. My hair has never looked or felt this good, and I can go three days with no touch ups. I diffuse using the pixie-curl method, which gives excellent results and takes care of the drying time issue. For my over-processed, very coarse hair, I leave in Deva Care One Condition (Knot Today is not rich enough), then use the Custard (had to experiment on amounts) and then put some curl keeper on the canopy. Fabulous results!

Madagascar is the only country outside the UK where Kew maintains a permanent presence. Our local team, working with Kew UK staff and local institutions, makes a significant contribution to research and conservation in Madagascar and ensures that Kew's science has maximum impact at all levels from government decision-makers to local communities.
Our research and conservation programme is coordinated by the Madagascar Science Team, which consists of specialists with interests drawn from across the institution, and with institutional support from the HLAA African Drylands Team and the Millennium Seed Bank. The biodiversity crisis has forced us to place increasing emphasis on conservation and in 2009 the Madagascar office was reformulated as the Kew Madagascar Conservation Centre (KMCC) in alignment with the Breathing Planet Programme and with the objective of helping Madagascar achieve the targets of the Durban Vision, the Global Strategy for Plant Conservation and the Millennium Development Goals. The work covers three main themes: taxonomic and systematics research, species conservation and biodiversity conservation.
Taxonomy and systematics remain key foci. Kew is the leading institution for revising the large plant families of Madagascar and the Guide to the Rubiaceae of Madagascar, which is nearing completion, will be the next major contribution towards a completed flora. We also aim to use molecular phylogenetics and state of the art GIS-tools to inform conservation. The palms team have successfully demonstrated the application of niche modelling and predictive mapping, increasing the species total by 20 to over 200 and extending the known ranges of many poorly known species. Research questions include: the origins of the grasslands and drylands, the evolution of patterns of diversity and the extinction risks associated with climate change.
Species conservation is increasingly important as the newly enlarged protected area system nears completion. KMCC is developing strategies for engaging local communities in conservation, including protected area management and endangered species conservation. Model plant groups include yams, orchids, palms and coffees, and our ongoing work publishing full IUCN Conservation Assessments for these groups has greatly increased our understanding of the overall threats and patterns of biodiversity loss in Madagascar. The wider issues being addressed include food security, rural livelihoods and adaptation to climate change. Our projects aim to reinforce efforts to conserve forests as well as provide sustainable livelihoods that offer viable alternatives to slash and burn agriculture. Protected area management enables us to develop effective strategies for community participation within a legal framework established by the Government of Madagascar.
Biodiversity conservation is a developing theme as the Millennium Seed Bank Project (MSBP) evolves from ex-situ conservation as insurance against extinction to proactive enabling of use at the forefront of habitat restoration, sustainable livelihoods and species reintroductions. In 2010, Silo National des Graines Forestières became the first MSBP partner to reach its ten year target by banking more than 1000 species. Over the next ten year phase we aim to integrate seed-banking across the KMCC programme and involve local partners managing protected areas. We also plan to build in-country capacity for forest restoration, agroforestry, remote sensing and rapid botanical surveys, in order to contribute to the rehabilitation of ecosystems, adaptation of useful species and sequestration of carbon that will be needed over the long-term to ameliorate climate change and sustain quality of life.

School Integrated Pest Management (IPM) Grants
EPA's Office of Chemical Safety and Pollution Prevention (OCSPP) has launched an initiative to promote expanded use of Integrated Pest Management (IPM) in schools. To provide greater protection for children's health by employing IPM as a pollution prevention tool, EPA is increasing its commitment to school IPM and redirecting resources to increase the attention and support given to school IPM programs. This effort is intended to accelerate the move from demonstration to the implementation of school IPM to ensure that the millions of children in our nation's schools will benefit from the protection afforded by quality IPM programs.
IPM is a sustainable approach to managing pests that combines biological, cultural, physical, and chemical tools in a way that minimizes economic, health, and environmental risks. A school IPM program uses easily implemented strategies to reduce sources of food, water, and shelter for pests in school buildings and grounds. Verifiable school IPM is an ongoing activity that includes all of these documented elements: understanding pests; setting action thresholds for key pests, i.e., knowing when to take action against key pests; monitoring for pests, their locations and populations; removing conditions that allow pest infestation; and using one or more effective pest control methods including sanitation, structural maintenance, and nonchemical methods in place of or in combination with pesticides.
As part of this commitment, EPA's Office of Pesticide Programs, in coordination with the EPA Regions, is initiating a grant program to support projects that, through research, development, monitoring, public education, training, demonstrations, or studies, will support recipients' efforts to increase IPM adoption by kindergarten to 12th grade public and tribal schools.
Who Can Apply for a School IPM Grant?
In 2013, eligible applicants included the 50 States, District of Columbia, U.S. Virgin Islands, Commonwealth of Puerto Rico, any territory or possession of the United States, any agency or instrumentality of a State including State universities, and all Federally recognized Native American Tribes.
Local governments, private universities, private nonprofit entities, for-profit organizations, private businesses, and individuals were not eligible. In addition, non-profit organizations described in Section 501(c)(4) of the Internal Revenue Code that engage in lobbying activities as defined in Section 3 of the Lobbying Disclosure Act of 1995 were not eligible to apply.
What Types of Projects Will the School IPM Grants Support?
The School Integrated Pest Management Grants will support projects that promote the adoption of verifiable IPM practices in the nation's kindergarten through 12th grade public and tribal schools. Proposed projects must further through research, development, monitoring, public education, training, demonstrations, or studies the adoption of verifiable IPM by kindergarten to 12th grade public and tribal schools that identify and reduce the risks associated with pesticide use. EPA strongly encourages projects that utilize consortia, partnerships, and other collaborative means in conducting the project. Proposed projects must conform to applicable state and/or tribal pesticide application requirements and IPM regulations. This program will not support projects the primary aim of which is to address the use of antimicrobial and cleaning agents in schools or pest management in school greenhouses or demonstration gardens.
A summary listing of the school IPM grants funded by EPA since 1996 is available. Additional information is also available on the school IPM grants funded in 2012.

Human pride took a bruising when Deep Blue beat Gary Kasparov in 1997; it may never recover if robots win the World Cup. However, an annual international robotic football competition hopes to achieve just that.
RoboCup's goal is to develop a team of fully autonomous, bipedal bots that can, by 2050, win against the victors of the human World Cup.
Around 140 robot teams from 90 countries will face each other in a knockout competition in Singapore in mid-June. There are six categories, from "small" (less than 15cm high) to "humanoid" (130 cm plus). Continue reading
The stack is a design strategy that, although east Asian in origin, is being co-opted across the world. It's a combination of simplified forms that appear to have been piled on top of one another in an ad hoc way.
An early example in Todoroki, a suburb of Tokyo, showed the potential of the form and now it's causing a buzz in Europe and the US. An ambitious stacked skyscraper in Jersey City in New Jersey (1) is planned, but the current king of the pile is Herzog and de Meuron's Vitrahaus (4), their furniture-design HQ at Weil-am-Rein in Switzerland, which opened in February.

If you commission an artwork, you don't expect to have to help build it. Yet Milanese design group Controprogetto have made client participation key to their work, along with using as much reclaimed material as possible.
Their first commission in 2003 -- rebuilding a playground in a small town in Kosovo -- forced the team to be resourceful and rope in the community. The four members of the group, straight from university, sourced scrap building material for free, slept in locals' houses for the month-long project and ended up building it with them.
"To build the structure we needed concrete -- we didn't have that skill, so we did it with them," recalls Davide Rampanelli, now 31. Continue reading

On the third Saturday each month, April - October, the Oregon Department of Forestry hosts trail work parties on the non-motorized trail network in the Tillamook State Forest that are open to the entire trail recreation community. Trail work parties focus primarily on hand construction of new trail for use by the equestrian, hiking, and mountain biking communities. Sometimes work parties will focus on trail maintenance such as cleaning out drainage structures, blocking illegal trails, or clearing down trees and on trail upgrades such as installing drainage structures, spreading gravel to harden trails, or constructing reroutes to create a more sustainable trail system.
Each year, volunteers from the hiking, equestrian, and mountain biking communities donate approximately 600 hours of their time helping to build and maintain trails in the Tillamook State Forest.

Ensuring safe, healthy babies and children.
The decision a young mother-to-be makes now will probably be one of the hardest she'll ever have to make. It is important that she make an active decision and not just let things happen or be pressured into a situation.
Our case managers provide tools and information for our mothers-to-be so they have all the necessary emotional support and resources to make the best decision for themselves and their newborn concerning adoption vs. parenting. Safe Babies Healthy Families collaborates with several local adoption agencies who provide guidance, support and counseling in making a birth plan.
If the birthmother decides that the best option for her is to place her child for adoption, our case managers provide prenatal education, emotional support and community resource referrals for the entire pregnancy to ensure a positive outcome for the young birthmother and her infant.
Adoption is a legal process in which you, as birthparents, terminate or end your legal rights to your child and a new set of parents takes on the responsibility for raising your child. You continue to keep all rights to your child until your parental rights are terminated in a court hearing.WHY CHOOSE ADOPTION?
Adoption is a big decision for you. It is a choice you make for yourself and your baby. Caring for a child is not an easy job. Look at yourself and decide what you want to do with your life. Think about your school and job situation. Think about who can help you with the baby and about the life-long responsibilities you assume when you become a parent. Think about your baby and decide what you want for your child. You make the choice. Our case managers will provide you with support and tools to help you through your decision process.WHAT ARE THE DIFFERENT TYPES OF ADOPTION?
Adoption today takes many forms. It gives you, as birthparents, options as to how much involvement you wish to have in choosing an adoptive family for your child. It also gives you some choice as to how much you wish to know about the adoptive family. You have a right to plan for your child's future, and should carefully think about how you want to do this. Our case managers can explain your different options so you can make an informed decision.A Recent Adoption Story...
At age 16, Lisa was pregnant and unsure what she wanted to do about her unplanned pregnancy. Her doctor referred her to the organization so Lisa could receive the comprehensive support services she needed.
Lindsey, one of our case mangers, met with Lisa and discussed her options with her, including how to stay in school. Lisa decided to attend a specialized program called SAPAR. The SAPAR program is a school program in Waukesha for students who are pregnant. After a few meetings with our case manager, Lisa started talking more and more about adoption as an option. Lindsey referred Lisa to several different adoption agencies, Lisa chose to work with Bethany Christian Services.
Lindsey accompanied Lisa to all of her meetings with Bethany Christian Services to provide emotional support. Lisa gave birth to a healthy baby boy that weighed 7 pounds and 12 ounces. The adoptive family offered to let Lisa see the baby whenever she wanted and currently gives her monthly updates on how the baby is doing.
With the help of the organization and one of our local adoption agencies, Lisa was able to successfully make a very difficult decision to place her baby for adoption.

Explained: Apple's not-so-secret favorite patent argument
With patent lawsuits all the rage nowadays, one term is popping up more frequently: "frand."
Frand--also known as "rand" in the U.S.--is an obscure legal acronym that stands for "fair, reasonable, and nondiscriminatory," and is based on the principle that fair licensing of intellectual property is often needed because sometimes certain ideas and patents just need to be shared for everything to work together properly. It's a fairly simple idea, but one that's been rocking the tech industry in recent years.
Apple loves frand, as it's become one of … Read more
