No-Bake and Raw Sweets
Chocolate-Drizzled Apples or Pears with Date "Caramel" Sauce
Two or three crisp apples or firm pears plus vegan chocolate chips add up to a seriously good dessert. And if you have a few dates on hand (and a machine to blend them up with) you can make a caramel-y sauce to dip them into, though this is entirely optional.
Skillet Peach Crisp
Peaches are at their best from mid- to late summer. Make sure to get them already almost or perfectly ripe. Rock-hard peach that have traveled a great distance never seem to develop much flavor as they ripen, and often go to mush. This quick dessert can be enjoyed shortly after you make it — no baking or chilling required! Out of season, frozen organic peaches are a good alternative to fresh. Photo by Hannah Kaminsky of Bittersweet. more→
Skillet Berry-Apple Crumble
Berries and apples are my favorite fruit combination in crumbles and cobblers. I try to have blueberries and cranberries as often as possible for their powerful antioxidant goodness. Here's a way to enjoy a delectable crumble, minus the 30 minute baking time usually required. The twist here is that it's made on the stovetop rather than baked in the oven. This recipe originally appeared in Vegan Express. Photo by Susan Voisin, FatFree Vegan Kitchen. more→
Jamocha Silk Pie
This concept is not original – you can't throw a stone in vegan blogland and not find a tofu and cocoa-type pie. But the ingredients are what give it a uniquely rich flavor profile and texture. With the blend of chocolate and a hint of coffee, one slice will sate you for the day. And it's easy and pretty enough to throw together for last-minute company. This takes only about 10 minutes to make, plus about 30 minutes to firm up in the freezer — if you can wait that long. Recipe contributed by Ashlee Piper, of The Little Foxes. Photos by Hannah Kaminsky, of Bittersweet. more→
Raw Strawberry Tart
To make the most of the incredible strawberries available in late spring and early summer, try this raw strawberry tart created by Carrie Forrest of Carrie on Living. This easy recipe highlights ripe, sweet strawberries, which are nestled in a healthy, no-bake crust made of pecans, oats, raisins, flax meal, currants, and date paste. The recipe makes for a very thick crust, but, as Carrie says, "that's kinda how I like it." Chances are, you will, too. more→
Crispy Rice and Almond Treats
Contributed by vegan chef Beverly Lynn Bennett, these rich, no-bake treats are incredibly good. I know, because I've made them for my kids a zillion times while they were growing up, and they still love them when they visit. Easy to make, these are good for those who need a burst of sweetness and energy, without indulging in empty calories. Photos by Hannah Kaminsky of Bittersweet.
Velvety Chocolate Mousse
For some of you, avocado pudding is probably old news, but for others of you, this might be the beginning of a beautiful friendship. Avocado creates a silken texture that you have to taste to believe (and I promise you won't notice any avocado flavor). From Practically Raw Desserts * ©2013 by Amber Shea Crawley. Used by permission from Vegan Heritage Press.
Raw Apple Crumble
This dessert is easier and faster to make than an apple pie or crisp, and requires no baking. Instead of refined sugars, this recipe uses dates for sweetness, and lemon juice and nutmeg for that extra zing.Visit Cathy Fisher's blog at Straight Up Food.

Andrea Stuart: Uplifting stories of individual triumph, like those of Nelson Mandela, Desmond Tutu and Mary Seacole, don't do nearly enough to fill the knowledge gap
When Vladimir Putin's spokesman dismissed Britain as "a small island no one listens to", David Cameron defended our nation's honour by mentioning among its triumphs "that Britain helped to abolish slavery". He made this statement without any apparent irony, or awareness that Britain was also one of the originators of the institution of slavery, certainly in the Atlantic context.
As we approach the end of Black History Month statements like this make it clear how much it is needed – and, at the same time, how little these annual 31 days have done to address the widespread ignorance aboutcrucial aspects of our history.
The truth is that the trade in sugar and slaves helped build Britain's greatness and create some of our most beloved cultural symbols. It was sugar, harvested by slaves, that generated those great fortunes jockeyed for in the novels of Jane Austen, and helped to finance the splendid houses which provide the model for Downtown Abbey.
Nor should we forget that even today, more than 150 years after slavery was abolished, Africans and their descendants remain markedly disadvantaged compared to the descendants of those who promoted the trade against them.
So why does this ignorance persist, 25 years after Black History Month was launched in Britain? This month we've seen events that range from the sublime, such as the award-winning American musical The Scottsboro Boys, to the tokenistic. At my children's school, many heart-warming pictures of Nelson Mandela, Desmond Tutu and Doreen Lawrence have been produced, as well as innumerable portraits of black sportsmen from Usain Bolt to Theo Walcott. At a friend's school, the pupils have been encouraged to turn up dressed as a black pop star. Most of our children have become familiar with the travails of Mary Seacole. But these stories of individual triumph, however uplifting, don't do nearly enough to fill the knowledge gap. We need to integrate black history across the educational curriculum, and among adults, so that people like our prime minister will also comprehend it.

WakeUP Wake County and the League of Women Voters combined to put on a candidates forum Thursday -- City Council candidates only. Last night, the four mayoral candidates joined in at the University Park Homeowner Association's forum. Goodness, these were genteel events. Everyone there was so nice. (No Joe Wilsons.) But not everyone was there.
Top 10 things said and heard:
(Cross-posted from Triangle Offense.)
Your (our) Carolina Rollergirls put on a great show this weekend, playing host to the Women's Flat Track Derby Association's Eastern Regional tournament at Dorton Arena in Raleigh. The home team, unfortunately, was upset in the opening round Friday night by Boston, which cost them any chance to advance to the nationals in November. They bounced back Saturday to drub the team from Virginia, and on Sunday grabbed 5th place (out of 10 teams) with a convincing win over the Providence, Rhode Island club.
"What happened Friday was a big surprise to us," said Pink Slip, the skater a.k.a. Laura Slipsky, a Raleigh graphic designer. "After that, I think we all realized we had to pull together and do what we always do -- do what we practice -- and play our own game."
Boston, meanwhile, proved to be the cinderella team of the tournament. The Derby Dames upset Charm City (Baltimore) to finish third, behind Philadelphia and New York -- top three advance to the nationals, scheduled for November in Philly. (Correction: An earlier version of this, based on my misreading of the WFTDA website, said Boston was the regional champion. h/t to Hydra.)
This was your correspondent's first time at an R'girls event -- the first time, actually, that I've seen roller derby since the olden days on New York TV, where the tracks were banked, the villains dirty, the stars clean as snow white, and it was all, ah, predetermined. (Fixed.) But there's nothing fake -- other than the skaters' names -- about these new flat-track events. The women still skate hard, and they battle for position as before, but the officiating -- at least in the two games I saw -- is excellent, which means you win based on speed, strength, strategy and effort. In other words, it's a helluva sport, fast and gritty, and it's a lot of fun to watch. Regular-season games at Dorton draw an average of 1,400 fans, I'm told.
One of the little-noted details of all the health care reform bills floating out of congressional committees everywhere is they don't take full effect until 2013. The state-level insurance exchanges -- basically, a list of the private insurance products available to small businesses and individuals, plus (perhaps) a public insurance "option" something like Medicare -- aren't slated to go into effect for four years.
The insurance industry reform aspects of the bill -- no excluding folks because they have pre-existing conditions, or over-charging them, or dropping them when they sick, or all the other vile ways insurance companies make a buck by avoiding their obligation to actually insure people -- would come first. So would the money to train more front-line doctors and nurses and to figure out better "standards of care" so that wasteful fee-for-service practices (i.e., the padding of health care bills) can be reined in.
So a little light went on in my head tonight listening to President Obama talk about the public option. He's committed to it or something like it, he said. He mentioned coops. He mentioned triggers. But the point is, he said, and then repeated himself, everybody deserves a choice of good, affordable insurance products wherever they live.
Well, doesn't that mean that the insurance industry has four years to figure out how to offer good, affordable insurance products in every state? And if it doesn't -- if one overpriced United Health or Blue Cross product continues to be a monopoly in Alabama or North Carolina, for example -- reform would then "trigger" the introduction of a public option in the aggrieved state(s)?
Four years to curb their costs, insure all comers, pay out when they should and stop with the blizzard of paperwork, and turn themselves into the health-care equivalent of a public utility, doing what the public wants but in a private, for-profit or nonprofit way. Actually, make it three years, because a public option will need a year or so to get off the ground.
Here's what Obama said:
[S]ome have suggested that that the public option go into effect only in those markets where insurance companies are not providing affordable policies. Others propose a co-op or another non-profit entity to administer the plan. These are all constructive ideas worth exploring. But I will not back down on the basic principle that if Americans can't find affordable coverage, we will provide you with a choice. And I will make sure that no government bureaucrat or insurance company bureaucrat gets between you and the care that you need.
Think lovely thoughts, Congress. But just in case the bastards can't do it, do load the public option into your legislation and attach an easy-to-pull trigger. With a three-year deadline.
Excellent turnout in downtown Raleigh for the pro-health care reform rally put together by President Obama's Organizing for America bunch -- easily 1,000. (Update: DNC says 1,500, which I wouldn't dispute; I've copied their press release below the fold. Amazing how the local media just about ignored this event -- for the "why" on that, Washington Post columnist E.J. Dionne is worth reading.) Interesting that they weren't all that cranked up by OFA Deputy Director Jeremy Bird the first time he spoke, nor by Congressman David Price, though they liked both. It wasn't until Rhonda Robinson, as she was winding up, declared "I'm for the public option, there's no other way," that people really started to get into it. Dustin Bayard, the Raleigh ACORN leader, stoked the crowd when he handed Price a stack of petitions with a pro-public option message. Then Dana Cope, the SEANC leader (state employees association), ripped into Blue Cross Blue Shield of NC and its CEO Bob Greczyn's $4 million a year take-home ("and they are a nonprofit," Cope sneered), demanding: "We need a public option, and we don't want to compromise."
Cope got a huge response, prompting him to get even madder. "They are afraid," Cope snarled at Blue Cross, "they might go out of business if they have to compete with a public option? I say, pack 'em up, boys!"
The crowd roared its approval. "Let's keep the fight alive," Cope shouted, his voice at its breaking point, "and don't let those bloodsuckers take it away from us this time!"
Now the crowd was chanting, "Public option! Public option! as Bird came back for a wrap-up. "I thought no one out there was supporting health insurance reform," Bird tried gamely, referring to the idiot coverage of the health care debate on the cable news nets. But the crowd wasn't into the "insurance reform" meme. "Public option! Public option!" Almost everyone there was yelling it out.
Bird, jazzed that the crowd was jazzed -- and stepping up to the challenge of matching Cope's energy -- then went over President Obama's principles going into his scheduled address to Congress next Wednesday night, primetime, for all the marbles. First, "cutting costs," Bird said. Second, for those with insurance, "preserving and protecting choice." And third, for the 45 million Americans without insurance, "We are going to give you an option, including a public option!"
They were the magic words that the crowd needed to hear. As Bird wrapped it up -- no more insurance b-s about pre-existing conditions, or dropping your coverage because you're sick, and no more whopping co-pays and deductibles with your so-called insurance, 1,000 voices let loose with the trademark Obama blast: "Yes, We Can!" they chanted. And then, "Yes, We Will."
No doubt the President's team is polling all the issues of health care reform like crazy. But about one question, they should be in no doubt: The people who are most devoted to Obama, and to health care reform as a cause, want a public option as part of reform -- and think that if it isn't, if the President gives it up, it won't be reform at all.
Updated Friday, September 4 and again Tuesday, September 8.
Times are tough, I know. And yes, we all deplore the sway of big money in politics. But c'mon, if you can't raise any money from anybody, isn't that kind of an indication that you, uh, don't have any supporters? Either that or you're not very good at asking people for help -- which, money aside, is a bad trait in a public official.
And on that score, the early returns from our Raleigh City Council candidates, when I perused them yesterday, were pretty punk. Doesn't John Odom have any friends? I know he does, but they're not giving him anything. Lee Sartain? James West? Seriously, with early voting starting in two weeks, these guys ain't -- to quote my old football coach -- showin' me nothin'.
(Fyi, campaign fundraising and spending reports were due to be delivered or postmarked to the Wake Board of Elections Tuesday. On Wednesday, some had arrived, some hadn't. I'll check again today as time permits, but despite the fact that we are now nine years into the 21st century, these reports aren't available online. To see them, you have to trundle downtown to the BOE office and break out the looseleaf binders.)
And now for the early returns:
The big pro-Obama health care reform rally you're going to read about in the printed Indy today when it hits a coffee shop near you -- the Let's Get It Done: Raleigh National Bus Tour Stop (Health Insurance Reform Now) rally that was scheduled for Thursday night, 5-7 pm at the WakeMed North campus -- well, they've changed the venue. No, really. I just talked to Lindsay Siler, who is state coordinator for Obama's Organizing for America operation. (She's in Greensboro today, btw, delivering petitions to Sen. Hagan. She's got a lot on her plate.) The WakeMed site fell through at the last minute, she said. OFA will have people out there re-directing folks to the new site, which is:
The Progress Energy Center plaza (in front of Memorial Auditorium)
2 East South St. (south end of Fayetteville Street)
5-7 pm
The HCAN website, incidentally, lists the location as "steps of the State House," wherever that is. Pay no attention to that listing. HCAN -- Health Care for America NOW -- is the coalition of labor and activist groups pushing hard for reform with a "robust" public option. OFA, reflecting President Obama's diffident p.o. stance, is for a public option, but not that insistent, if you get my drift. But ... they're allies ... same rally ... somebody tell HCAN Central where the Progress Energy Center is.
Let's Get It Done: Raleigh National Bus Tour Stop (Health Insurance Reform Now)
After the fifth or sixth person asked me if I knew who was behind the push poll in District D (Southwest Raleigh) last week, I started calling it "the push poll" myself. But since push poll is such a dirty term in politics, let's not jump ahead of ourselves. There was some automated calling done in the district. A recorded voice asked "questions" about the District D incumbent, City Councilor Thomas Crowder -- questions that were not really questions at all. They were along the lines of: Would you vote for Crowder if you knew that he (insert criticism or innuendo)? Well, would you still vote for him if you knew that he (insert additional criticism or innuendo)?
You know, like push polls do.
I called Crowder's opponent, Ted Van Dyk, to ask him if he knew who did the poll. "There are interested people" who did it, he said. "There was a poll done ... I did not have direct grimy hands on the questions ... I am party to the information [collected]."
In short, if he knows who took it -- and presumably he does, because he acknowledged getting the results -- Van Dyk wasn't saying. I finally asked him if he was the client. Was it his poll? "I'm not going to say it is my poll, and I'm not going to say it isn't," he said.
On one point, though, Van Dyk was definite. "It was not a push poll," he insisted.
So what is a push poll?
Opponents termed it a monster's head, a dragon's head, a clenched fist aimed at their Pullen Park/West Morgan neighborhoods. It was the western-reaching appendage of the new comprehensive plan's FLUM (Future Land Use Map) that sought to extend the Central Business District -- as shown in red in the graphic -- to an assemblage of property at the intersection of West Morgan and Hillsborough Streets known to the community as the Bolton tract.
But the dragon won't be eating the neighborhoods, at least any time soon. Because after months of political in-fighting, the City Council Monday voted 5-3 to chop its head off, lifting the CBD designation from the 6.7-acre Bolton tract and instead making it (along with some nearby properties) into a special study area. In other words, the tract will be the subject of a small area plan to determine the most appropriate future land uses there in some detail.
The vote was a victory for a coalition of neighborhoods including Pullen Park and West Morgan on the south side of Hillsborough Street and the Cameron Park and Cameron Village neighborhoods on the north side. (Disclosure: I live in Cameron Park and supported our neighborhood's position.) On the other side were the owners of the Bolton tract, a Charlotte firm called FMW Real Estate, who fought hard to keep the CBD designation, and some adjacent property owners who supported them. The Bolton tract consists of some 11 separate lots assembled by FMW, including the long-vacant Bolton Corporation building itself.
For some background on the FLUM, see our Indy stories about it here and here. The monster's head has been in it from the December, 2008 get-go, with the Raleigh Planning Department staff and the Planning Commission backing it all the way against a growing chorus of neighborhood voices who argued that the Bolton tract simply isn't in the downtown CBD and shouldn't be treated as if it were.
When the issue finally reached the City Council, a flurry of 11th-hour maneuvering began. The neighborhoods were pushing for a special study. On the other side, FMW principal Jim Zanoni, his Raleigh lawyer Mack Paul, Raleigh Planning Director Mitch Silver and others concocted a 'compromise." The Planning Department's "Memo 9" proposed to change the Bolton designation from CBD to "Community Retail -- Mixed Use," a category defined in the comp plan as:
"... medium-sized shopping centers and larger pedestrian-oriented retail districts such as Cameron Village."
It seemed an odd fit, since Zanoni has consistently said that his firm will seek to have the property rezoned for a mainly residential project of about 1,000 units, or 150 units per acre. Not, that is, for a shopping mall.
The CBD designation calls for densities of up to 320 units per acre (and unlimited building heights). CRMU, on the other hand, is about shopping centers with some complementary residential units, but only 14-28 units per acre unless near a transit stop, in which case the upper limit would be 70 units per acre.
But wait -- in the 11th hour deal, the CRMU definition was proposed to be rewritten (as spelled out in Memo 9) to allow "the highest densities -- no more than 150 units per acre -- reserved for areas within a half-mile of a planned rail transit stop...."
Though the Bolton tract isn't located with a half-mile of a planned rail stop as yet, the Planning Department is pitching the idea of re-drawing the main TTA rail line so that it would be.
The idea is to pull the TTA rail line out of the Amtrak rail corridor as it approaches downtown Raleigh from the west and re-route it along West Hargett or West Morgan street -- making it an electrified streetcar, in effect. If that's done --and it's entirely possible that it will be done -- then a stop could be located not just near the Bolton tract but on it.
The rewritten definitiion -- 150 units, just what FMW wanted -- was posted to the city's website at about 4:30 Friday afternoon. Neighborhood leaders had no idea it was there until late Sunday night. By Monday morning, it was under fire. Mayor Charles Meeker, who on Saturday told me that he was inclined to support the CRMU designation (but at that point, I didn't know about the change to 150 units, and he didn't mention it), fielded a slew of emails and calls from irate neighbors.
When the issue came to a vote at the Council work session Monday afternoon, four Council members were lined up on the neighborhoods' side, and Meeker joined them. They were Thomas Crowder (the neighborhoods' district representative), Russ Stephenson (an at-large member), Rodger Koopman and Nancy McFarlane. Koopman and McFarlane represent other districts.
Voting the other way, against the special-study redesignation, were Councilors Mary-Ann Baldwin (the other at-large member), Philip Isley and James West.

More than a few Android fans are ready and willing to get their smartwatch on with the new Android Wear platform, so some German users must have been excited to see LG's G Watch pop up in the Play Store in Germany. AndroidPit spotted a small section of promo text for the device, and while it didn't include any photos or links and it was quickly removed, it certainly implies that the G Watch will be sold on the Play Store.
Fun fact: because of the enormous expense of shooting on location, a surprising number of American television series are shot and produced in Canada. Often when you see "Chicago" or "New York" on the small screen, it's really Toronto or Vancouver standing in as a body double for an entire city. Supernatural's Winchester Brothers are almost always running around British Colombia, and the rolling Wild West frontier of Hell On Wheels is really Alberta.
If you've been patiently waiting for carrier billing to come to your cell carrier, today might be your lucky day. Customers of Starhub in Singapore and A1 in Austria should now be able to charge app and content purchases from the the Play Store directly to their cellular accounts. A1 is the first carrier in Austria to support the feature, and Starhub is the second in Singapore.
One of the more far-reaching Android Police stories this year was our exclusive write-up of Virus Shield, an impressively popular anti-virus app that managed to make it to the top of the Play Store's sales charts in less than a week, despite the fact that it did absolutely nothing. After digging into the app's code, Artem Russakovskii and various Android Police readers found that it was nothing more than a few images and a toggle.
Google's regular expansion of carrier billing, which lets customers charge apps and and other purchases to their next wireless bill, has been mostly focused on Europe for the last year or so. But if you're a customer of the Total Access Communication Public Company Limited of Thailand, better known as "DTAC," you now have the option as well. According to the support page for the Play Store's carrier billing, DTAC joined the list late last night.
Carrier billing for the Play Store is slowly, slowly making its way across Europe, which probably isn't much comfort for those who want it and still can't access it. If you happen to be in Germany and use the third-largest carrier in the country, you no longer have to wait. German carrier E-Plus was added to the list of carrier billing supporters yesterday.
For the uninitiated, carrier billing allows users to buy apps, songs, books, movies, and in-app purchases by charging the amount to their carrier bill instead of a credit or debit card.
Good news, everyone! Well, everyone in four very specific European countries, anyway. After stretching the Movies section of the Play Store today, Google is also spreading Play Music to Greece, Norway, Slovakia, and Sweden. Users in these countries should now be able to purchase songs and albums starting today.
Even better, all four new territories can access the all-you-can-eat All Access music subscription service. That's generally been the way it works - currently all twenty-five countries supported by Google Play Music also have access to All Access.
Attention, parents: if you've used your Google account to buy apps, books, videos, or music on Google Play, your credit card information is stored. If you give your phone or tablet to your kids, they might be able to buy stuff that you don't necessarily want. That's a lesson that Ilana Imber-Gluck learned after her 5-year-old son spent $65.95 on Marvel Run Jump Smash. Unsurprisingly, she chafed at the experience, suing Google in a northern California court on behalf of herself and "all others similarly situated."
The central issue seems to be a 30-minute window after downloading an app, during which the user - whoever that might be - can rack up in-app purchases without supplying a password.
Owners of the Nickelodeon Edition of the kid-friendly Nabi 2 tablet have probably been somewhat jealous of their non-Nick counterparts, which got an over-the-air update back in December which added compatibility with the Google Play Store. Or maybe it's just the parents of the owners who care. In either case, the Nickelodeon Edition Nabi 2 now has access to the Play Store courtesy of the latest OTA.
In addition to the Google Play Store (accessible in "Mommy or Daddy Mode"), version 2 of the software adds Wings Explorer, a huge collection of basic reading, writing, and arithmetic lessons aimed at kids.
Were you excited to hear the Google Play is getting an expanded list of game categories? Well curb your enthusiasm - the switch to the expanded list was tentatively scheduled for "February," but as one reader noticed, the new categories haven't been implemented yet. The relevant Play Store support page has been modified, and now it says that the change will come sometime "around March."
Switching from the old list of just six categories to an expanded 17 (which contain the original six plus more specific sub-genres) would be a boon to both Android users and developers.

The 2013 Zipp 101 is a legitimate high-performance aluminum rear clincher. No shallow-profile design comes close to the performance of the 101 in the wind tunnel or on the road. Its 30mm deep, fully toroidal rim shape is faster than many deeper V-shaped rims and can save up to 42 seconds over 40 km compared to the industry's benchmark aluminum wheel. The rim's wide profile increases lateral stiffness for sprinting and cornering, resists pinch flatting, and improves handling by reducing tire 'squirm.' The Zipp 188 rear hub uses 10 Swiss steel bearings that roll more smoothly than many ceramic bearings, and the stiffest 17mm axle on the market. 20 bladed spokes are radial laced on the drive side and crossed on non-drive. 843 g.

:: Home > General News > Two more serious skiing accidents in Upper Austria > General News
09. 02. 09. - 15:00
09. 02. 09. - 15:00
There were two serious skiing accidents in Upper Austria on Thursday.
A man, 51, from St. Ulrich bei Steyr in Upper Austria�s Steyr-Land district, and a boy, 10, from Deutsch-Wagram in Lower Austria�s G�nserndorf district collided at the Wurzeralm skiing area.
The man made a left turn while skiing fast and ran into the slowly-moving boy with such force that he flew into the air and turned a full summersault before landing on the piste.
Rescuers took the seriously-injured boy to the valley and then transported him to Rottenmann hospital. The man injured his knee and possibly broke his breastbone. The boy was wearing a helmet, but the man was not.
In another incident, a boy, 15, from Kematen an der Ybbs in Lower Austria�s Amstetten district fell while skiing alone at the Kasberg skiing area. A doctor who happened to be in the area and a rescue team gave the boy first-aid, after which he was helicoptered to Linz General Hospital.
The boy suffered severe head injuries despite wearing a helmet. His fate lends credence to the view of a top sport medic who claims helmets are effective only at very low speeds.
Karl-Heinz Kristen, vice president of the Deutsch-�sterreichisch-Schweizerischen Gesellschaft f�r Orthop�disch-Traumatologische Sportmedizin (GOTS or German-Austrian-Swiss Association for Orthopedic-Traumatic Sport Medicine) has said making helmets mandatory doesn�t make sense.
He said: "A helmet is not a panacea," noting a helmet provided adequate protection of the head only when the speed of a skier�s collision with an immovable object was no higher than 20 kilometres an hour - slower than speeds reached by most skiers.
Helmets made sense for members of Alpine groups such as rescuers, ski instructors, emergency doctors, care-givers and professional skiers, Kristen added.

The federal government somewhat clarified the confusing status of certain undocumented youth on Friday.
U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Service, part of the Department of Homeland Security, updated its website on Friday, which now says that for those youth who qualify for Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA), "your period of stay is authorized by the Department of Homeland Security" and they are "considered to be lawfully present in the United States" (although it specifies that "deferred action does not confer lawful status").
According to the ACLU, that means it is clear that those youth are eligible to receive driver's licenses. "The federal guidance issued today sends a clear message to the states – these young immigrants, who were brought to the country as children, are authorized to stay here," meaning that their ability to apply is "required by law."
Last fall, a spokesperson for the Michigan Department of State argued that undocumented youth should not be able to apply for licenses because, as he told Michigan Radio, "If you look at what U.S. citizenship and immigration services agency has put out, they've made very clear that the DACA participants do not have lawful status in the United States."
Since last summer, when Homeland Security initially announced that some young undocumented immigrants could apply for deferred action as long as they met certain requirements — meaning that they would "then be eligible for work authorization" according to the department's guidelines — some states would not issue them driver's licenses, creating a problem for those who rely on automobiles to get to work.
Those state's include Arizona, Michigan, Nebraska, and Iowa, according to the ACLU.
A recent study conducted by the Department of Motor Vehicles found that unlicensed driver's are three times as likely to cause fatal car crashes, prompting advocates to argue that allowing undocumented immigrants to apply for them could reduce deaths, reported the Los Angeles Times. Opponents claims it rewards those who immigrate without authorization.

I've been going to Dr "
I did not like to be photographed because of old black fillings in my front teeth which were crooked and discolored with age. I had previously consulted another dentist, but went to Dr could be done and quoted a charge that was less than half of what had previously been quoted. The end work was six front teeth that were capped resulting in a beautiful smile. There was no waiting time for appointments and all of the staff were friendly and helpful. I am more than pleased."
The office is neat and in a nice location. The personnel is courteous and efficient. I saw Dr. was because the work in his office would have to be done by two different doctors, and I wanted to find just one doctor who would do everything needed. After I am done with the implants procedures, which will take about one year and a half, I will go back to "
Dr. to the dentist that much better. The dental hygienist is very gently, nice and also very professional. You rarely have to wait as appointments seem to always run on schedule."
of this practice..Dr. "
Over all, it is a great place. I am happy I went and I am going back. I picked long time for the doctor that was recommened, finally letting another doctor look at my son. In the end, we loved Dr. Hearrean!! My son said that Dr. Hearrean is is his favorite dentist. I brought my daughter back to see him the next week and she loved him too. I (the BIGGEST FRAIDY CAT) went to see him myself yesterday. I think he is great too. I have to say also... that "
