Lincoln: A look behind the scenes at the Lincoln cottage
February 11, 2013 - 06:12 pm
The film "Lincoln" has sparked renewed interest in the 16th president thanks to Daniel Day Lewis' accurate portrait that Lincoln was a tenor.
Erin Carlson mast serves as executive director of the Lincoln cottage where Lincoln and his family lived during the summers of his presidency. Five years ago, the national trust opened the cottage on the grounds of the armed forces retirement home to public tours just as Steven Spielberg began to plan his film .
The cottage also got a visit from Liam Neeson, Spielberg's original choice to play Lincoln.

The Classicist: Veuve Clicquot Clicks with Riva Yachts
Filed under: Spirits, Yachts & Sailing, The Classicist
Renowned French champagne house Veuve Clicquot has teamed up with luxury Italian motoryacht maker Riva to produce an amazing new Grande Dame Cruise Collection of coolers and accessories for discerning yachtsmen. It's nothing short of a match made in style heaven of two very chic European marques. The top offering from the collaboration is an $80,000 made-to-order cruising trunk that resembles a small boat in itself and harks back to the golden age of traveling in style which we reminisced about recently. For something done on such a grand scale it's rather refined, a luxurious design without resorting to odious "bling" to attract those with more money than sense.
The trunk comes packed with four bottles (1988) and two magnums (1998) of Clicquot's coveted La Grande Dame champagne, six Riedel crystal champagne flutes and elegant table settings for six people. A smaller limited edition Cruiser Bag comes with a single bottle of Grande Dame and two flutes for more intimate occasions, and a matching ice bucket is crafted with marine flair to spare. All pieces feature the same lacquer work, mahogany inlay, chrome detailing and leather trim found on Riva's beautiful boats.
Riva, which dates from the 1800s, is an icon of the Italian Riviera's Dolce Vita style. The company first captured the attention of movie stars and the international jet set in the '50s. Its classic wooden craft, which inspired the Cruise Collection, have been owned by the likes of Brigitte Bardot, Richard Burton, Sophia Loren, Aristotle Onassis and Prince Ranier of Monaco. Their yachts, including more modern designs, can be seen at the chic European seaside resorts where the bon ton gather, and they have their own line of elegant nautical-inspired clothing as well.

Did the various families who left Babel leave any trace of their journeys? New discoveries in Israel hint at surprising complexity among the first wayfarers to pass through that land.
Except for one minor detail, this campsite might seem unremarkable. Camping near a lake, a group of people built a fire to cook fish and other fresh food, while others divided several other chores among themselves. What's unique? This amazingly preserved campsite was left by people who first spread out from Babel.
The site, Gesher Benot Ya'aqov in Israel's northern Jordan valley, adjoins the shore of a now-vanished lake from the post-Flood Ice Age. Recent digs have uncovered many remnants of an ancient camp that closely resembles what we might expect to find at a modern Survivor camp.
The complex division of labor surprises secular archaeologists, who date the site to around 800,000 years ago in the so-called Lower Paleolithic. This date also pushes back the use of controlled fire by nearly 400,000 years, by their reckoning—into the time of so-called "early" humans (Homo erectus), who were not supposed to be as advanced as "modern" humans (Homo sapiens sapiens).1
Because these remains are found in higher, post-Flood layers, creationists believe they were left by some of Noah's descendants who had dispersed from Babel. The remains of tools and hearths help us reconstruct many details about the people who were on the move. Though the tools are simple, their owners' intelligence is obviously not.
At one level, archaeologists uncovered different areas of human activity.2 One was a hearth with remnants of burnt wood, including wild grape, olive, ash, and oak. Nearby, they found discarded fish parts, mostly from an extinct carp, and the remains of freshwater turtles and crabs, as well as many seeds, nuts, and fruits.
Near the hearth researchers also found evidence that the campers were making flint, basalt, and limestone tools, such as hand axes, scrapers, and hammers. Many rock anvils showed pits that likely occurred from cracking nuts open.
So this group not only worked together in food preparation and tool-making, but they also caught local fish, hunted and slaughtered big game (such as elephant and fallow deer), gathered all sorts of fruits and nuts, and roasted this food over a fire. They also quarried different kinds of rock for tools.
Since no human fossils have been uncovered at the site, archaeologists can only assume what the inhabitants looked like, based on the other human fossils found in Ice Age (Pleistocene) sites, such as Homo erectus or so-called "archaic Homo sapiens." But even they realize that this is based on big assumptions.
Bible believers, on the other hand, would attribute this site—and its amazing preservation—to a much more recent group of travelers, who found themselves thrust into an unknown world after the Flood.

Neville hails Shawcross example
Ryan Shawcross returned to the England fold after a two-year absence with Gary Neville claiming his old Manchester United team-mate is the best possible example for youngsters to follow.
Due to his status as captain of unfashionable Stoke, and also the tackle on Aaron Ramsey in February 2010 - just days before his only previous Three Lions call-up - that incensed Arsene Wenger and left the Arsenal man with a broken leg, Shawcross' abilities have largely been overlooked.
Yet the 25-year-old's tenacity has continued to shine through, just as it did in those early days at United before he was released in 2008 after making just a couple of League Cup appearances.
It was fitting therefore that, speaking at a coaching clinic at St George's Park as part of the FA and McDonald's Community Awards programme, Neville should have such a perfect example to offer to his students.
"Any kid who has a dream should look at Ryan Shawcross maybe more than people at the highest elements of the game," said Neville.
"He is a great story and the fact he is in the England squad this week is something I am proud of.
"I remember playing with him when he was 16. He was a raw talent but someone who really wanted to make it. He wanted to use the last ounce of his energy to become a professional footballer.
"He had to leave Manchester United to get his chance.
"Not giving in and continuing to fight is a huge strength and he has been absolutely fantastic for Stoke.
"He deserves his opportunity this week and I am looking forward to seeing him because he represents the best of attitude, of working hard to get where you want.
"I am sure he will improve and get better."
Like all the other fringe players in Roy Hodgson's squad, including Liverpool's Jonjo Shelvey, who has been called up for the first time this afternoon, along with Chelsea's Ryan Bertrand after Kieran Gibbs was forced to pull out with a thigh injury, Shawcross will hope England opt for an experimental side against San Marino, officially the world's joint worst team.
Skipper Steven Gerrard and Liverpool team-mate Glen Johnson are ruled out through suspension, whilst any player carrying a slight knock will not be risked either given a far more testing trip to Poland is looming next Tuesday.
That includes Ashley Cole, who is eligible to make his 99th appearance despite being landed with an FA charge over his ill-advised comments on Twitter last Friday.
Cole has until Thursday to respond and if found guilty is likely to be hit with a fine and FA sources insist no pressure will be applied to Hodgson over the 31-year-old facing San Marino, with that issue determined purely by the coach's team selection.
The balancing act between keeping players fresh for Poland, whilst not giving them too much time off, is the most difficult thing Hodgson must negotiate this week.
San Marino have no FIFA ranking points and have won just once in their entire history - against fellow lightweight Liechtenstein in 2004 - and never in a qualifying game.
Whilst it is famously remembered San Marino scored after a record 8.3 seconds when the sides last met in November 1993, it should also be noted England went on to get seven, adding to the six they got in the reverse game at Wembley.
It should be a fixture that dispels the myth there are no easy games in international football.
"My mentality when I played in games of this nature was always to scare myself," said Neville.
"It was a preparation tool. I thought of what might happen, and believed the world would collapse if I didn't win.
"That is what I used to do when people told me it was a certainty.
"I can't stand here as an England coach and say England shouldn't do anything but win on Friday. Nobody can."
Complacency is an obvious danger but Neville is confident the England squad are professional enough to ensure their own preparation is as focussed as it would be against the best teams.
"The players are the managers of their own destiny when they get to this level," he said.
"They are really experienced. They have been here before. They have been round the block.
"They know the pitfalls of any game of football if you don't approach it in the right way."

'99 Yukon Slooooooooooooooow radiator leak
Hi guys, just intro-ed on the newbie forum. Here's my problem. It appears that I have a coolant leak that I can't identify. Seemed to have just started when the weather warmed up. I get mini-puddles along the front of the car, but they stop dripping after a couple of minutes (pressure off?). Not leaking enough to drain the system, but enough to make the driveway look bad. Bar's stop-leak helped not at all. I was thinking drain valve or freeze plug, but before I start tearing off cowlings and skid plates I'd like to know if this rings a bell with anyone?? Thanks.....

These are pictures from the Blizzard on January 26, 1978. I was only 2 years so I don't remember the blizzard. I'm glad that my kids are all old enough that they will be able to witness and remember this unlike I am able to. So in a way this is my first Blizzard experience as well. Hope you enjoy these pictures.

With earnings season having just gotten started, here's an options strategy that's perfect for a company about to report.
A straddle involves buying both a call and a put, at the same strike price (at-the-money) at the same time.
With options, you buy a call if you expect the market to go up. And you buy a put if you expect the market to go down. A straddle, however, is a strategy to use when you're not sure which way the market will go, but you believe something big will happen in either direction.
For example, let's say you expect a big move to occur, either up or down, based on whether the company reports a positive surprise or a negative surprise. With these strategies, you can make money in either direction without having to worry about whether you guessed correctly or not.
For example: let's say a stock was trading at $100 a few days before their earnings announcement. So you decide to put on a straddle by buying:
- the $100 strike call
- and the $100 strike put
Because you only plan on being in the trade for a few days (to maybe a few weeks), you decide to get into the soon-to-expire options.
Note: usually, I'd advocate buying more time and getting in-the-money options. And I still do -- when playing one side of the market.
But when playing both sides of the market simultaneously for an event you expect to take place in the near immediacy, the opposite is best. Why? Because at expiration, your profit is the difference between how much your options are in-the-money minus what you paid for them. So if you don't need a lot of time, this keeps the cost down and your profit potential up.
If you paid $150 for an at-the-money call option that will expire shortly and another $150 for an at-the-money put option that will expire shortly, your cost to put on the trade was $300 (not including transactions costs). If that stock shot up $10 as a result of a positive earnings surprise, that call option that you paid $150 for would now be worth $1,000. And that put option would be worth zero ($0).
So let's do the math: if the call, which is now $10 in-the-money, is worth $1,000; then subtract the $150 you paid, and that gives you an $850 profit on the call.
The put, on the other hand, is out-of-the-money, and is worth nothing, which means you lost $150 on the put.
Add it all together, and on a $300 investment, you just made a profit of $700. Pretty good -- especially for not even knowing which way the stock would go.
However, if you paid more for each side of the trade, those would be extra costs to overcome. But by keeping each side's cost as small as reasonably possible, that leaves more profit potential on the winning side and a smaller loss on the losing side.
Moreover, if the stock stays flat (in other words, the big move you expect to see happen doesn't materialize, thus resulting in both sides of the trade expiring worthless), your cost of the trade was kept to a minimum.
So buying a straddle by its very nature should be looked at as a short-term trade. If the outcome of the event that prompted you to get into the straddle in the first place now has you strongly believing that a continuation of the upmove or downmove is in order, you could then exit the straddle and move into the one-sided call or put and apply the in-the-money and more-time rules for those.
Here are 5 optionable stocks due to report earnings next week (week of 1/14 thru 1/18) that could see some volatile price action one way or the other:

He is expected to turn himself in over his role in the Galleon case.
The insider trader wrongly went with astrology.

The Galleon founder still isn't "clear" on what exactly he did wrong.
Shockingly, the prosecution and defense have different opinions.

The Coast Guard Academy is a prestigious institution of higher learning where admission is extremely competitive. For those who can earn admission through demonstrating a strong academic record, good standardized test scores, and a history of athletics and community service, the prize is well worth the challenging process of admissions: a degree from a highly ranked federal service academy, a commission as a Coast Guard officer, and a career as a future leader in the nation's premier multi-mission maritime agency.
As an officer in the U.S. Coast Guard, I have enjoyed my career immensely. From directing search and rescue missions over the Great Lakes, to serving as a contingency planner in Louisiana during the Deepwater Horizon oil spill, to serving as a reserve force manager for Sector Sault Sainte Marie, my career has been tremendously fulfilling and very professionally rewarding.
My educational background includes a degree in Political Science from Purdue University, a law degree (J.D.) from the Chicago-Kent College of Law, and I am admitted to the bar in the State of Illinois. I joined the U.S. Coast Guard Reserve in 2008. Prior to entering active duty as an officer, I served as an attorney for the Chicago Public School system where I enjoyed meeting with teachers, students, and parents on a regular basis.
If you have a passion for service and an interest in applying to the Coast Guard Academy, I look forward to hearing from you so that we can go over your plan for admission and so that I can discuss possible options with you. Do not hesitate to reach out, the earlier you begin this application process the more assistance I can provide! I hope to hear from you soon!
Sincerely, LT Gim Kang Admissions Officer United States Coast Guard firstname.lastname@example.com

What your shoes say about you
Footwear can have a powerful effect on first impressions.
People often form opinions about strangers from a glance at their shoes. A study led by Omri Gillath, an associate professor of social psychology at the University of Kansas in Lawrence, has tested the accuracy of those assumptions.
Related: 10 Commandments of Mascara
Participants not only made good guesses about people's age and earning based on their shoes, they also correctly associated feminine-looking shoes with agreeableness, and dull, neutral-colored shoes with anxiety about being rejected or abandoned by others.
Related: The Top 21 Drugstore Beauty Bargains
Among the many wrong assumptions: that politically liberal people wear cheap, round-toed, unattractive shoes in poor repair, and that emotional stability correlates with the absence of high heels and pointy toes.

Sunglasses under $50 to wear this season

When someone says "Julia Roberts," you think teeth. You think hair.

As for which designer she'll select—Gucci? Ralph Lauren?—that's anyone's guess.


text: The trial is the result of consistent effort and persistence of the ICTB. Last week, ICTB prosecutors filed an application [JURIST report] for formal charges against a former leader who allegedly committed crimes against humanity during the 1971 Liberation War. This application was filed in response to ICTB's request [JURIST report] for a submission of formal charges. However, the trial process faced some concerns when Human Rights Watch [advocacy website] pointed to reports showing threats of violence and arrest against defense lawyers and witnesses. HRW urged Bangladesh to stop such harassment [JURIST report] in order to have a legitimate trial against the accused. The trial was delayed [JURIST report] last month because the defense lawyers asked the court to review the charges against Sayedee. The court accepted 20 out of 31 charges [Al Jazeera report] that were filed [JURIST report] in July by the Bangladesh prosecutors.

Press Mentions
Upper West Side
Upper West, from Central Park West to the Hudson River, 57th Street to 110th Street.
Every ten blocks of the Upper West Side seem to have their own character: the 70s and 80s have their share of "Classic Six" prewar apartments (that's three bedrooms, a living room, dining room, and kitchen, as opposed to a "Classic Seven," which has all that plus a room for the maid or domestic staff, sometimes used as a home office.) Along Riverside Drive on the Upper West Side, there are contain some grand-scale apartment buildings with magnificent river views to match the street's name. Meanwhile, the southern bit of the Upper West Side embraces the Time Warner Center, which has some of the most spectacular luxury condos in the city, along with high-end shops like Coach and Hugo Boss, once-in-a-lifetime eateries like Per Se, and a giant subterranean Whole Foods that seems to hold every resident of the Upper West Side at once.
Located at Riverside & 64th Street with forever unobstructed views of the Hudson River and lush green parks, The Rushmore offers a lifestyle as extravagant as its surroundings. Located in the cultural heart of Manhattan, life at The Rushmore offers the bustle of a city and the serenity of an island with resort-like amenities including a spectacular La Palestra Wellness Center with indoor swimming pool, an exclusive collaboration with Kidville, NY, a parking garage, screening room, garden lounge, entertainment suite, billiards room, and sundeck. Surrounded by the finest dining and endless entertainment, there is no greater luxury than the lifestyle a Riverside address offers. Unrivaled amenities make life at The Rushmore the pinnacle of urban elegance.

During the election, I would hope that I was reasonably easy to get hold of for members of the public, maintaining a website and blog, twitter feed and facebook group (in addition to flickr, myspace and my photography blog) - and Edlemen even kindly ranked me as a top political tweeter. (for is there any higher acclaim?!)
Yet I don't agree that this was 'the' social media election - I think that's going to be 2015, maybe 2020. This was the TV election, thanks largely to the two defining events of the campaign, the first leaders debate and the 'bigotgate' moment.
I debated this point with Rob Brown, MD of agency staniforth and chair of the Social Media Panel at the CIPR. He's even written a book, 'Public Relations and the Social Web' - but I waded in anyway.
You can read the full interview debate online now at Communicate magazine.

A gently active holiday in the Cyclades
The Greek Islands have much more to offer than most would think: archaeological treasures, history, culture, dramatic landscapes over the azure sea and of course delicious food.
Our week starts in the ancient city of Athens, before heading towards three beautiful islands, Naxos, Santorini and Paros.
Cultural centre of ancient Greece, Naxos is a mountainous island (Mt Zas is the highest peak in the Cyclades) where we will discover picturesque villages, lush valleys and sandy beaches.
Exploring the irresistible island of Santorini on foot will certainly be the highlight of our week. The amazing caldera, the famous sunsets and the whitewashed villages await us.
What makes this trip responsible?
We have an excellent long-term relationship with our local operator, who has been looking after our groups for many years. As a part of our continued commitment to responsible tourism, we operate this trip in a way that aims to reduce impacts and to give as much back as possible to the local communities, therefore, wherever possible, we choose hotels that are run by local families and we generally eat in local tavernas and restaurant.
Trip Extension
Exodus also offers a moderate 8-day walking holiday on the island of Evia (Trip Code: TVE). On some dates it is possible to combine the two trips to make a fantastic 15-day itinerary.
Trip Notes contain all the detailed information you need. A full day by day itinerary, accommodation details, guides and other practical information. Download Now

On Thursday, House Speaker John Boehner, R-West Chester Twp., sent a letter to Secretary of Veterans Affairs Eric Shinseki addressing the backlog in VA benefits that cause veterans to wait an average of 272 days for their claims to go through.
The Dayton Daily News did a special report on the backlog earlier this year.
Below is a copy of Boehner's letter to Shinseki:

810 Vermont Avenue, Northwest
Washington, DC 20420
Dear Secretary Shinseki:
I write to express my concern regarding the lack of improvements in the benefit delivery system for our nation's veterans. In the four years you have served as Secretary of the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA), the benefit delivery system has not shown any noticeable improvement and America's veterans have yet to receive the VA service they deserve. Despite your transformation efforts, the compensation claims backlog remains alarmingly high and our veterans continue to have their benefit access stifled by a broken system.
In 2012, the Cleveland Veterans Affairs Regional Office (VARO) was among the first of 16 nationwide VAROs selected to begin a transformation process with the objective of reducing the VA compensation claims backlog by 2015. The July 9, 2012 "Transformation Kick-Off Event" initiated the Cleveland VARO's transformation process. Many members of the Ohio congressional delegation and VARO staff attended, and while this event generated excitement as to what the transformation changes might bring, the effort has yielded lackluster results.
An examination of VA compensation claims status statistics from the past four years shows an underwhelming performance by the Veterans Benefits Administration (VBA) both before transformation efforts and after the initial stages of implementation. Despite a multitude of transformation initiatives, the VBA has failed to decrease the amount of time it takes to process and adjudicate claims. As of February 15, 2013, the VBA is reporting on the Aspire Dashboard that, on average, the Cleveland VARO's "Rating Claims Processing Time (FYTD)" is 334.2 days. This is above the current national average of 272.5 days, and well above your stated goal of 125 days. In fact, since January 2012, the current national average has steadily increased by 17.7 percent, up from 231.5 days. Meanwhile, in the past year, the average time to process a claim at the Cleveland VARO has increased by 34 percent, up from 249.5 days. Furthermore, since the transformation process officially began at the Cleveland VARO, the average time to process a claim has increased by 20 percent from 278.5 days to the current 334.2 days.
Data from the January 24, 2009 Monday Morning Report showed the total number of pending compensation claims nationwide at roughly 390,000, 10,500 of which were pending at the Cleveland VARO, and 26.4 percent of which were older than 180 days. According to the February 11, 2013 Monday Morning Report, the total number of pending compensation claims has grown to 821,143, 71.5 percent of which are older than your goal of 125 days.
As recently as January 25, 2013, the VA promoted the fact that it has completed more than one million claims per year for the last three years. At the same time, as of December 2012, the VA also acknowledged that its accuracy rate for processing claims is only 86.3 percent, far below your stated goal of 98 percent. This data indicates that the VA has potentially made more than 400,000 errors in rating claims over the past three years alone. These inaccurate claims must then be submitted for additional review so veterans can have their benefits awarded appropriately through the filing of a Notice of Disagreement (NOD). Even though the VA is addressing the current backlog of initial claims, it seems as though the VA is disregarding the status of appeals. According to the February 11, 2013 Monday Morning Report, there are 251,443 pending appeals, an astonishing number, and most likely due to the 13.7 percent inaccuracy rate.
Since 2009, the VA has received a year over year increase in funding. In 2010, Deputy Secretary of the VA W. Scott Gould stated that current budgets provide the VA with the resources to increase veteran access to benefits and services, reduce the backlog, and end veteran homelessness within five years. At the same time, he stated, "A central goal for VA is to reduce the time it takes for a Veteran to have a claim fairly adjudicated. Regardless of how we parse the numbers, there is a backlog; it is too big, and Veterans are waiting too long for decisions." I could not agree more with Deputy Secretary Gould's statement.
It is realized and appreciated that the addition of three presumptive conditions to the herbicide exposure list has increased VBA work requirements. However, even using the transformation model that has been outlined for several years, it is difficult to understand why there is still a nagging backlog of claims. You have stated that an allocation of "31 percent of senior claims adjudicators" was made in 2011 to address the influx of new claims associated with the addition of three new presumptive conditions. You have estimated that the number of claims generated from these new conditions is approximately 260,000. According to Deputy Secretary Gould, the VA spent more than $300 million over the past several years to hire and train VA employees. However, the results show that the VA is still falling short of its goals and the nation's expectations.
Deputy Secretary Gould stated in 2010 that the VA invested $138 million in a paperless system that would be deployed in 2012. As of current knowledge, that system has yet to be fully implemented. What is understood is that the VARO has begun using the Disability Benefit Questionnaires (DBQ), Quality Review Teams, and simplified notification letters, and is in the initial phase of implementing the Veterans Benefits Management System (VBMS), cross-functional teams, "Unified Desktop" technology, segmented lanes, and Challenge Training. This is just a short list of the 40 initiatives and changes that will be coming to the entire VA to complete the transformation process.
The data clearly indicates that your stated goal of processing a claim in 125 days is not being met and it appears that this goal is more unattainable today than it was four years ago. VA stakeholders are asking extremely important questions and as someone who represents them, I believe they deserve nothing less than honest and direct answers.
• On January 14, 2013, the VA announced a nationwide transition to paperless processing of disability claims. Has the VBA started to convert old paper files to digital files? If, so, what is the end date of conversion? Does the VA plan to continue using the paper files until those present paper claims are completed?
• What are all 40 of the initiatives that are being discussed and when do you expect to have them fully implemented both at the Cleveland VARO and nationwide?
• The data indicates that the VA has potentially made more than 400,000 errors in rating claims over the past three years. What is being done to reduce the time veterans are waiting to have their claims reviewed and re-adjudicated?
• Long-term goals are usually preceded by several short-term goals and performance markers. What are the short-term goals of the transformation process, the performance markers, and the status of them? Do you feel that these markers have you on track to achieve your stated goals of processing claims in under 125 days and eliminating the claims backlog by 2015?
• All of the results from the implementation of the new processing model at the Cleveland VARO are not externally visible through public data. What are the Cleveland VARO's results to date?
Mr. Secretary, the men and women who have proudly served our great nation deserve a better benefit delivery system. When you were appointed as the Secretary of the VA, you said "At the end of each day, our true measure of success will be the timeliness, the quality, and the consistency of the services and support we provide. We will be measured by our accomplishments, not our promises. Veterans, Congress, and the American people expect that, and I do, as well." America's veterans are counting on you. I appreciate your consideration of the information outlined in this letter and I respectfully request a response to my questions within 30 days. Thank you for your continued service and your prompt attention to this very important matter.

Recipe by Scarlett
"This is a very simple and yummy side dish. I learned in while living in France from an old Mediterranean lady. This is always a hit!"
Watch video tips and tricks
5 fresh tomatoes
5 shallots, coarsely chopped
1/2 cup olive oil
1/4 cup balsamic vinegar
1 loaf French bread, for dipping (optional)
I made this for a potluck and it was a hit! After marinating over night, the vinegar and onions were no longer overpowering and became almost sweet. It was super easy and I'll definately make it again!
is nothing special taste.

This is my favorite way to eat tomatoes! Light and fresh, the good tomatoe taste comes through. Use good Balsamic. I sometimes top with crumbled feta or blue cheese and black olives, use fresh basil confetti for added color and flavor. Perfection!
Great recipe and simple too...Perfect for Summer..I used Olive Oil that has been flavored with a crushed garlic clove and it added just a little extra.
I've been making my own variation of this all week with all fresh veggies from my garden. Added small cukes, green pepper, yellow tomato, red onion chopped. Didn't use as much olive oil or Balsamic as called for since we don't like the veggies swimming. Added just enough to cover and also added a little honey to take the bite out. Delicious...DH had 3 helpings!
Growing up in our lttle Italian getto in Chicago we ate an identical "salad" almost everyday.. all summer long. It was GREAT! Passed down from my Great Grandmother (who added a leaf or two of fresh mint to hers) it's also very healthy. She and my GGrandDad came here from Sicily, married, as teens quite early in the last century. I was lucky enough to know GGrandDad (who lived to be 98) as a kid and learned a lot. (How to ID edible fungi and other edible "weeds" for example). But the best, and most outstanding memory from their home was the smell, and taste - OF THE FOOD!!! (funny how certain foods invoke such strong memories)
This recipe turned out great! I didn't have the shallots, so I just left them out and made it with the tomatoes. I also added a little chopped fresh basil to the mix. My husband loved it and even took the leftovers to work the next day to let his 2 coworkers try them. They loved it as well!
Perfect side dish instead of a salad. I also had two warm multigrain baguettes that we enjoyed dipping in the dressing. Yum! I also added fresh garden cucumber slices around the serving tray and it just added to the presentation and tastiness.

The Stack is back on this Thursday of Super Bowl week and there are a few stories that made headlines on Wednesday so let's get right to it and see what made "the stack" for today, Thursday, January 31:
Super Bowl storyline number five
Every year, there are defining moments for a team and the two teams in the Super Bowl this year, the San Francisco 49ers and Baltimore Ravens, are no exception. Sure both teams could have made it to this very spot had the ball not bounced a certain way or if they hadn't won a particular game, but the road would have been a lot more difficult. Excluding the playoffs and just focusing on the regular season, let's take a look at a couple plays that changed each team's season and is a major reason why they are playing for the Lombardi Trophy...
The San Francisco 49ers had a few big plays and moments this season. Their first one started right away at Green Bay in week 1. They were pretty dominant right from opening kickoff, but it was David Akers record tying 63-yard field goal right as the first half expired that helped propel the 49ers to a big win. They won 30-22 and had they not won that game, they would have had to travel to Green Bay for the playoffs instead of Green Bay traveling to San Francisco in the divisional round.
A fairly decent 24-13 whooping by the Minnesota Vikings in week 3 helped the 49ers re-gain focus as they crushed the New York Jets 34-0 the following week, but the next big season changing moment wouldn't happen until November 11, week 10 against the St. Louis Rams. For it was on that day that the fortunes of the 49ers appeared to change for what we know now was the better. Alex Smith got knocked out with a concussion in the first half; more accurately took himself out with concussion like symptoms and into the game came in second year quarterback Colin Kaepernick. A lot of 49ers fans were in Smith's corner and wanted to see him succeed, particularly after the success of last season leading the 49ers to the NFC championship game against the New York Giants. The 49ers and the Rams ended up tying, a significant result in and of itself. Had the 49ers lost, the Seahawks would have won the division later in the year. The tie was a huge blessing in disguise for the 49ers, but a cloud of mystery surrounded the team regarding the health of Alex Smith.
The next week, on MNF against the Chicago Bears, Kaepernick started after head coach Jim Harbaugh made a late decision and Kaepernick shined. He destroyed the Bears as the 49ers won 32-7. He was on target, throwing for 243 yards and two touchdowns and it was his poise and "hot hand" as Harbaugh would later reference, that made him the starter for the rest of the year. Now, look at where he and the 49ers are now. In New Orleans trying to win Super Bowl XLVII. Don't know if it can get much more season defining than that.
For the Baltimore Ravens, they too have had some significant moments this season that have helped them reach New Orleans. Joe Flacco really set the tone for his season with a 299 yard, two touchdown performance against the Cincinnati Bengals in week 1. The major game was in week 3 when Torrey Smith put together a heroic effort just hours after learning of his brother's death. He caught 6 passes for 127 yards and two touchdowns to lead the Ravens offense, but they would need rookie kicker Justin Tucker to squeek a game-winning field goal just inside the right upright (a kick that some people today still feel like he didn't make) for the Ravens to win 31-30 over the New England Patriots and improve to 2-1.
The Ravens would eek by with a couple of close wins the next two weeks including a 31-29 win over the Dallas Cowboys in week 6 in which Ray Lewis tore his triceps. The season looked over for Lewis, maybe even his career. The Ravens certainly didn't look ready to play without their leader the next week as they were destroyed by the Houston Houston Texans 43-13. The Texans sure looked like the team to beat in the AFC, not the Ravens. Fortunately the bye came at just the right time for the Ravens.
They got their act together in a hurry, rattling off four wins coming out of the bye including a win at Pittsburgh, but it was the last of the four victories that truly defines their season. Down 13-10 late in the fourth and facing 4th and 29, Flacco got the ball in shotgun formation. He looked downfield. No one was open. Finally he checked it down to Ray Rice, who turned and charged upfield. He cut back and several San Diego Chargers took terrible angles to tackle Rice. He saw the opening, he saw the chains and lunged and picked up what looked to be a first down. A lengthy review concluded that Rice did indeed pick up the first down. The Ravens tied the game and later won it in overtime 16-13. In the postgame press conference, Rice dubbed the play "Hey diddle-diddle. Ray Rice up the middle." Very clever and very important as it would turn out. The Ravens lost three straight after that before winning a must win game at home against the defending Super Bowl champion New York Giants. They lost a meaningless game to the Bengals to end the year, but had Rice not converted that 4th and 29 and the Ravens lost that game, the Bengals would have finished 10-6 and in first in the AFC North while the Ravens finished 9-7, winding up as the wild card. Sure the last game would have most likely been played differently, but "hey diddle-diddle, Ray Rice up the middle" is thee defining play, the defining moment for the Ravens in the regular season.
As we have found out, both teams have rode the wave of momentum to the Super Bowl in these playoffs whether it be on the legs of Colin Kaepernick or on the emotion of Ray Lewis amid his retirement announcement. But if not for a couple of big-time season altering plays, neither team may be in the spot they are now, a chance to win Super Bowl XLVII and hoist the Lombardi Trophy.
Rudy Gay traded to the Raptors
In a move that isn't shocking, but definitely perplexing, the Memphis Grizzlies have traded Rudy Gay to the Toronto Raptors for forward Ed Davis and guard Jose Calderon. Calderon will then be traded to the Detroit Pistons for Tayshuan Prince and Austin Daye who will go to the Grizzlies. This move was clearly about taking money off the books for the Memphis Grizzlies. Gay was due to make a lot of money, over $50 million this season and the next two seasons. It seems though that this may weaken the Grizzlies this year. They had a chance to be one of the top four teams in the western conference. Sure they have struggled in recent weeks, but they still had a ton of talent on the team. They have good pieces like Marc Gasol and Zach Randolph, but the loss of Gay will hurt them this year more than it will help them. This summer will be a different story.
The Raptors clearly see this as a golden opportunity to add a key piece and make a run at the playoffs, especially given the injury to Rajon Rondo and the Boston Celtics. They are currently 5.5 games out of the eight seed, but with half of the season remaining, the Raptors can definitely make that up. This will be interesting to see how the Raptors come together and make a run at the playoffs.
Tuiasosopo inteview to air Dr. Phil
Ronaiah Tuiasosopo, the mastermind behind the Lennay Kekua hoax, will have an interview by Dr. Phil McGraw aired Thursday on the "Dr. Phil" show. Already, some pretty interesting information is coming out. Tuiasosopo said that he fell in love with Manti Te'o through this hoax. When Dr. Phil asked if he was gay, Tuiasosopo said yes, before eventually saying that he was "confused." He also said that Te'o "absolutely, unequivocally" had no participation in the hoax whatsoever. This is going to be a pretty interesting interview to watch in its entirety. Surely there will be more that comes out of the interview and if it's anything like what we've heard so far, we're bound to laern a lot more.
Coming up Friday: Super Bowl XLVII preview and prediction

not a surprise at all he had never been to Gainesville dont think the staff ever really thought he was going to be apart of the class
We have some many unproven players DT and we prove that we NEED and USE significant depth on the DL. Easly is the only proven DT and he is a SR. So weak excuse.
On a Miami site, the rumor is both Moten and Cook are going to commit to Miami this weekend. While I'm not surprised with Moten, I'd be shocked with Cook. He was just out in Oregon recruiting for UF.
U should stay off the Miami site, they are going to say the first thing that comes to mind. While I would be sad, but not shocked if cook ended up elsewhere, it won't be to miami
UF still has JUCO and High school targets at DT they has not shut down recruiting in the position. This is not a shock to anybody. I really like where we are at this point in the recruiting process overall.
I think if you go back and watch the tape of Orr early in the year and Jacobs late in the year you will see we have 3 proven tackles but all 3 of those guys are upper classmen. The freshmen class of DT's should be a special group but of course they are not proven
I consider UF having 9 commits right now. We have 10 but I dont count Paul. Would be shocked if a few more ended up elsewhere the end result will be great just like last year.
