The President's Man
John Brennan took over the CIA after years working for Barack Obama. Now he's on the hot seat as lawmakers demand to know whether the CIA spied on Congress.
On Saturday, CIA Director John Brennan will mark his first year at the helm of America's most storied intelligence agency. But this is probably not the way he planned to celebrate his anniversary: publicly trading recriminations with members of Congress over one of the darkest chapters in the CIA's history.
Late Wednesday evening, Brennan issued a combative statement in response to news reports that some lawmakers have accused the CIA of interfering with a three-year long Senate investigation of whether the CIA tortured suspected terrorists and whether brutal interrogation tactics such as waterboarding produced useful information about potential attacks. Lawmakers reportedly also accuse the agency of not disclosing documents that bolster their findings. The Senate report, which remains classified and hasn't been released publicly, is said to be a blistering indictment of the interrogation program and an account of how the CIA misled members of Congress about it. "The report concludes the committee was systematically lied to over a period of years, and that's true," a former intelligence official told Foreign Policy.
And yet the most explosive part of the story may be yet to come, and it's one that will put Brennan, and his close ties to President Barack Obama, squarely in the spotlight. The question remains of whether the president or his advisers knew that members of Congress accused the CIA of interfering with their investigation, when they knew it, and what, if anything, the president did in response. On Tuesday, Sen. Mark Udall (D-Colo.), alluded to the question in a letter to Obama. "As you are aware, the CIA has recently taken unprecedented action against the Committee in relation to the internal CIA review," a reference to an agency document that reportedly backs up the committee's conclusions and that the CIA allegedly didn't disclose during the investigation. Udall called the action, about which he didn't elaborate, "incredibly troubling."
A White House spokesman would not comment on what Obama was or wasn't told. Asked publicly by a reporter this week whether he had any response to other accusations that the CIA had monitored the computers of congressional investigators, the president gave no answer.
Brennan, a former CIA officer who returned to the agency in 2013 after four years as Obama's counterterrorism adviser, has been dogged by quiet criticism that he was and remains too politically close to the White House. That's an allegation that Brennan's defenders dispute. Among some of those who have served with him, he was known as "the cardinal," and they considered his motives to be devoid of political influence and beyond reproach. But Brennan was also the most forceful and reliable public defender of the Obama administration's most politically divisive intelligence programs, including the CIA's use of drones to kill terrorist suspects. In 2012, Brennan gave a major public address justifying the program, which he helped run from the White House. It's generally viewed as the most spirited defense the Obama administration has ever given of the lethal use of drones and targeted killing of terrorist suspects, including U.S. citizens.
The question facing Brennan now, say former intelligence officials who maintain close ties to him, other CIA leaders, and congressional staff, is how to publicly defend the agency, maintain its credibility, and repair ties with its Senate overseers. Judging by the rebukes coming from both Brennan and lawmakers, that won't be easy. Failure, meanwhile, would have lasting repercussions, including a virtually certain Senate push to bring the agency's routine operations and most sensitive missions under more aggressive and intrusive congressional oversight.
The current scandal began earlier this week after several high-ranking Senate Democrats claimed that the agency improperly monitored the work of Senate Intelligence Committee staff reviewing classified CIA documents about the agency's harsh treatment of captured terror suspects and that the agency withheld the existence of the internal report that largely corroborates the committee's own findings -- namely that waterboarding and other brutal tactics failed to produce useful intelligence.
Lawmakers are calling for answers, and Brennan wasted no time defending his agency.
"I am deeply dismayed that some members of the Senate have decided to make spurious allegations about CIA actions that are wholly unsupported by the facts," Brennan said on Wednesday. "I am very confident that the appropriate authorities reviewing this matter will determine where wrongdoing, if any, occurred in either the Executive Branch or Legislative Branch. Until then, I would encourage others to refrain from outbursts that do a disservice to the important relationship that needs to be maintained between intelligence officials and Congressional overseers."
The CIA may have ammunition for firing back at its critics. According to a report by McClatchy, congressional aides involved in preparing the Senate report removed classified documents that they weren't authorized to have from CIA headquarters. The FBI is also now investigating the removal of classified documents from a CIA facility in Northern Virginia, according to reports. The CIA inspector general has also referred to the Justice Department questions about whether agency officials monitored Senate staff members' computers, reports said. Agency officials declined to comment, but a fuller statement from their side is expected in coming days.
For Brennan, the public controversy marks perhaps the most significant test of his leadership, as years of bitterness between Langley and the Hill have now spilled over into public view. The relationship between the spies and their overseers in the Senate are poisoned and at a low point, despite the fact that on other controversial matters, including NSA surveillance, the committee and especially its chair, Dianne Feinstein (D-Calif.), have generally been strong defenders of the intelligence agencies.
"The Senate Intelligence Committee oversees the CIA, not the other way around," Sen. Martin Heinrich (D-N.M.) said in a statement. "Since I joined the Committee, the CIA has refused to engage in good faith on the Committee's study of the CIA's detention and interrogation program. Instead, the CIA has consistently tried to cast doubt on the accuracy and quality of this report by publicly making false representations about what is and is not in it."
Another committee member, Sen. Ron Wyden (D-Ore.), has implied publicly that the agency may have violated a criminal statute meant to combat illegal computer hacking, suggesting that the CIA may have monitored the use of computers by Senate staffers who were combing through millions of pages of classified documents on the interrogation program.
If the CIA were found to have spied on Senate committee computers, it would be a scandal of monumental proportions and might well end with Brennan's resignation. A former senior intelligence official said he couldn't conceive of a scenario in which clandestinely monitoring congressional computers would have been permissible under law.
But it's not clear whether Senate investigators were using their own computers or those furnished by the agency when they reviewed documents at a CIA-controlled facility. (White House and intelligence officials, as well as congressional staff, declined to comment on that question.) Several former officials said it was highly unlikely that the staff would have been allowed to bring their own computers into a secure facility, and if the CIA was monitoring its own computers, it's not clear how that continues an illegal act.
But that the question is even being raised reveals how profoundly hostile and distrustful the investigation into interrogation practices has been. That's the breach that Brennan has to try to repair.
Brennan's return to Langley was greeted skeptically by many CIA employees, who hadn't considered him to be director material, former officials said. He was generally viewed as a White House loyalist, which is not unusual for a CIA chief. But had Brennan not hitched his wagon to the Obama presidential campaign in 2008, three years after he'd left the agency and embarked on a career in business, he would almost certainly have never been considered for the top job. He'd had a successful career, with a tour as station chief in Riyadh, and at the CIA ultimately rose to deputy executive director, a senior leadership position. But a final position as director of what became the National Counterterrorism Center was seen as a sort of graceful transition from a career in public service, with little expectation that he'd return. That all changed when Obama won election in 2008 and Brennan joined the new president in the White House the next year after serving as a national security adviser to the campaign.
In general, current and former officials say, Brennan has shown himself to be a strong defender of the agency's interests, and a stabilizing force after the brief, disastrous tenure of retired Army Gen. David Petraeus, who stepped down in 2012 amid a sex scandal. And having a CIA director who has the president's ear brings distinct though less tangible advantages.
Brennan has also been an effective guardian of the CIA's budgets. It stood at nearly $15 billion in 2013, a 56 percent increase since 2004, according to classified documents revealed by Edward Snowden, and there is no sign that the spigot will be turned off. Intelligence insiders credit Brennan for helping to maintain the flow. He has also managed to hold onto the CIA's drone program, despite public assurances from Obama that it would be transferred to the military.
Before Brennan returned to public service, he didn't embrace forceful executive powers so enthusiastically. "After 9/11, there was a need for urgent action, and sometimes without the fullest of discussion," Brennan said in an interview with this reporter in 2008, before he joined the Obama campaign. "Where I fault the [Bush] administration is that after the heat of 9/11 dissipated a bit...that's when it should have embarked to engage meaningfully with the [congressional] oversight committees and the judiciary, to put in place those programs for the longer term."
It remains to be seen whether Brennan will -- or can -- collaborate so peacefully with the CIA's overseers. Former officials doubted that the current controversy over interrogations would literally cost the agency in dollars. But its credibility is now on the line. If history is any guide, Brennan may do well to follow the lessons of a previous director, Leon Panetta, who won the admiration and the loyalty of the CIA rank-and-file when he publicly and forcefully defended the agency over similar allegations that officials had misled Congress about interrogations.
In that fracas, Panetta stood up to Nancy Pelosi, then the speaker of the House, who said the agency wasn't telling overseers the full story about brutal techniques it used on detained terrorists, including waterboarding. "There is a long tradition in Washington of making political hay out of our business," Panetta said in a message to CIA employees, a curious choice of words for a man who had no experience at all in running intelligence programs. "My advice -- indeed, my direction -- to you is straightforward: ignore the noise and stay focused on your mission. We have too much work to do to be distracted from our job of protecting this country." Pelosi backed down, and the controversy subsided.
"They liked Panetta. They couldn't stand Petraeus. Brennan, I think people said, 'Well, maybe,'" a former senior intelligence official said about employees' reaction to the director's return. "But it was a skeptical maybe. And it's still a skeptical maybe."
Coming days will show whether Brennan convinces his employees he has their back, and the president's.

It was December 1st, 1905 when McCaughey and McCaughey bought
113.05 acres of land from Mr. L. Brooks. They took part of this land
to build a sawmill along the Stillaguamish River and started business July 27th, 1905 naming the sawmill McCaughey Mill Company. The new train had
reached Darrington and the whole area was in a boom and sawmills developed along the tracks. A settlement
sprang up around this mill and by 1910 the population had grown to
130 people. By 1915 it had become a major employer for the area, the average wage for a 12 hour day was $3.50. In the height of McCaughey Mill Company's success it was severely damaged by a fire some time around 1915. McCaughey leased the L.D.R Mill to the east to make repairs and stay in operation while making repairs and rebuilding the McCaugney Mill. During this time the damaged sawmill went through reorganization and was renamed Fortson Saw Mill. Stocks of $100,000 were sold and the company regained their capital and the mill was rebuilt.
By 1926 Fortson had grown to a population of 320 people. It was close to 1929-1931 when Fortson again burned during the hard times of the Great Depression and It would be a couple of years before Klement and Kennedy rebuilt and got the mill up and running once more. Much needed road improvements were being made to the Arlington-Darrington Road, now known as SR 530. Severe storms washed out the road at Hazel and the road was rerouted to the south of the tracks further way from the Stillaguamish River. Truck traffic was increasing and the Fortson Mill invested in 4 logging trucks. The Bennettes moved their store to the east corner of Mine Rd. and SR 530 and put in the first gas pumps for the Whitehorse area. This is now the present location of the Whitehorse Mercantile and gas station. The Train remained a primary method to move logs and lumber for several years to come, however times were changing for the area. As traveling became easier by road a growing population moved closer to the highway.
Fortson was sold to Burke Barker in 1954, and he later moved the mill to the Three Rivers Mill in Darrington, later known as Summit Timber, and now known as Hampton Lumber Company. When the mill moved men needed to be closer to work and so the families moved to Darrington or closer to the highway for ease of traveling to wark. Metal roofing and pipe was sold for salvage to the Taylor Mill downriver near the Cicero Bridge. Some of the dwellings were moved off site for homes and the cook house was moved to be an office near the community of Whitehorse.
The Mill at Fortson was powered by steam. Throughout the massive concrete ruins you see the round holes where pipes once ran. There was a waterwheel north of the small pond where the fish ladder is now near the railroad bridge. This supplied electricity for lighting until the town was able to connect with Seattle Power and Light.
This is where the De-Barker once was. Now the Darrington Volunteer Fire Department holds the Juvenile Fishing Derby in the Spring. You can still see the large grooves cut into the concrete embankment where tracks ran down to the pond to bring up logs to the De-barker.

You like games. I like games. And the Blob certainly likes games, because it's so often accused of playing games.
So, here's your game for Tuesday: Who Had The Worse Day?
In this corner, the Detroit Lions, who hired former Colts head coach Jim Caldwell as their new head coach, prompting all Lions' fans who remember Caldwell's beige tenure in Indianapolis to shriek "Nooooooo!!!"
And in this corner, the Chicago Cubs, who unveiled a new mascot -- Clark is his name -- that provoked ridicule (and some crude embellishments) all over the interwebs because Clark looks like, well, a Berenstein Bear who's not wearing pants.
Hence the crude embellishments on Deadspin and elsewhere. This being a family Blob, they will not be posted here, but you can probably guess what they are.
(Clue: Again, he's not wearing pants).
Poor Lions/Cubs. No matter how hard they try, they simply can't get out of their own way.

REDLANDS, Calif. — Investigators say a 15-year-old, would-be thief who jumped into a Jeep Cherokee was being watched by a Southern California policeman who rented the SUV.
The plainclothes officer used his remote to lock the Redland's teenager inside.
Redlands police spokesman Carl Baker says the San Manuel Indian Reservation officer was on assignment Wednesday when he saw the teen climb into the SUV.
Baker wrote in a statement that the officer took the youth into custody and waited for Redlands police to arrive and make the arrest.

Why Brent Sutter could be the right coach
Jean Lefebvre
July 16 2009 08:54AM
Just to follow up on Two-Line Pass' recent entry about how Flames fans should feel fortunate that the Sutter brother No. 5 has agreed to pace behind the Calgary bench, let's look at the major reason why Brent could be the right man for the job.
Will coach for a couple million dollars' worth of food

Flames - minor issues
Kent Wilson
July 12 2009 12:00AM
Things are shaping up to be interesting at both the major and minor league levels for the Flames organization heading into the new season. The majority of the off-season will be spent analyzing the former so let's take a brief look at latter.
Abbotsford will be the third iteration of the Calgary owned/operated AHL team since Sutter took over the team. The Omaha Ak-Sar-Ben Kinghts lasted a couple of seasons before moving to Quad Cities this past year. Each version of the Flames farm team has been mediocre or worse for various reasons, primary amongst which was a dearth of high quality prospects in the system. The rare impact youngster that has appeared on the org's radar has spent little or no time are the minor level (Boyd, Phaneuf) while other high draft picks have fizzled (Chucko).
There has been a concerted effort by Sutter to shore up farm's ranks early this summer, indicating an impetus to make the Abbotsford move a successful one. Less than a month into free agency, Darryl has already signed minor league veterans Jamie Lundmark, Kyle Greentree, Riley Armstrong, Jason Jaffray, Staffan Kronwall and Garth Murray. These are the actions of a GM weary of his minor team missing the play-offs I think.

The Virginia Tech Hokies did a solid job of recruiting for the Class of 2013 and made a late surge right before National Signing Day. This surge led to the addition of a few more players to the Hokies' recruiting class including 4-star wide receiver Isaiah Ford. Another one of the additional commitments for the Hokies was 3-star DE Kevin Bronson from Delray Beach, Florida.
Despite being a three-star and not a four or five star, there was a lot of hype around Kevin Bronson being one of those under the radar recruits from a big state. Bronson also already had above-average size at 6-4 and 233 pounds which was definitely something that very much intrigued many. Bronson seemed like a future starting defensive end for the Hokies when he committed to Virginia Tech.
However, Bronson will not be headed to Blacksburg via this tweet from Wells Dusenbury of ESPN 106.3.
Big area recruiting news: #VaTech DE signee Kevin Bronson (Village Academy) has been granted a scholarship release. Will enroll at #USF.
— Wells Dusenbury (@DuseReport1063) July 3, 2014
Dusenbury's tweets also suggest that there were some communication issues that were part of the reason why Bronson ended up asking to be released from his scholarship. Also, later tweets from Dusenbery would reveal more specific reasons for Bronson's decision to leave Virginia Tech and enroll at South Florida.
Per his HC, Bronson was a point shy on ACT of qualifying. VTech had said from beginning they'd be able to get him in, but started to waver.
— Wells Dusenbury (@DuseReport1063) July 3, 2014
Bronson & family thought #VTech had been giving him the run-around, so he asked for release on Tues. #Hokies granted it & he's now with #USF
— Wells Dusenbury (@DuseReport1063) July 3, 2014
It is definitely disappointing that Kevin Bronson was just barely unable to qualify academically to enroll at Virginia Tech but the Hokies definitely seem like they will have the depth they need, especially with how they could end up with more than 2 defensive ends in the Class of 2015.
The odd part about this is the reported circumstances about the communication issues that Kevin Bronson and the Hokies had. If there wasn't a communication issue, Bronson would have likely gone to a prep school for a year instead before going to the collegiate level. However, the disconnect between Bronson and the Hokies along with his previous good relationship with South Florida are two big reasons why Bronson is no longer a Hokie.
This is disappointing but there is no reason for concern with the Hokies traditionally not having communication issues with recruits.

Guarapo de Cana - Sugar Cane Juice; Yerba Buena?
I am trying to recreate a mojito I had recently in Miami. They used sugar cane juice. Apparently this is sometimes available fresh at Latin markets. Goya sells it in cans. Does anyone know any place to get this in the Boston area? Has anyone made guarapo from fresh sugar cane? If so, where is a good place to get fresh sugar cane: Super 88? I understand that organic sugar cane is preferred by many -- any ideas? How about finding yerba buena, which is a wild Cuban mint?
I don't know of fresh juice options, but Chinese markets also sell sugar cane juice, but in drinkable box types. Obviously, this will be diluted with preservatives. Fresh sugar cane can be found in some Chinese markets, though it's more rare these days. Fresh sugar crane is not easy to extract juice from (woody and tough texture), so even if you found it, I'd be hard pressed to believe anyone would extract anything from it unless you have an incredible, beyond-inustrial stregth juicer/blender. If worse comes to worst, you may want to consider buying pure cane sugar (found in Chinese markets) and dissolving that with water for your recipe.
A decent number of the Brazilian bakeries and snack places have machines that extract cane juice and sell it (would guess frozen cane, but not certain). Some Brazilian products, though suffer from variable availability so you might need to hunt around. In Somerville I believe Sweet Brasil on McGrath, Brasilegal on McGrath, and Pastelaria Vitoria are among the places offering it. I haven't seen boxed cane juice in Brazilian markets.
In a few cases where I have needed sugar cane, I have used a canned product from thailand which is available at Market Basket and the Super88. If you were really energetic, you could slice these and try crushing the juice out with a heavy
rolling pin... but is probably easier.
You could also dilute cane syrup which is available from Whole Foods and might be purer than some of the boxed options.
Thanks for the info. I've found both the canned Thai sugar cane and two brands of canned sugar cane juice - or really sugar cane drink - at Super 88. I am still looking for fresh juice and I will try some of your suggestions.
Pressing your own cane seems to be out of the question. I read about it on an Australian website for vegetarians. Apparently there are presses made just for this. The pictures were of old ones. They looked like they were cast iron and about the size of a refrigerator.
Any ideas where to get fresh sugar cane (for garnish) ? I know you can get it in the area, because I had some in my basement refrigerator for months after a random purchase somewhere. Whole Foods (Newton) does not have it and neither does Super 88. I may have gotten it at Haymarket one Friday.
Also yerba buena (or hierba buena) anyone?
Thanks again.
re: headbroad
If you are in Newton, it maybe easier for you to head to downtown Framingham than Somerville. I know Padaria Brasil Bakery in downtown has served cane juice. And if not there are 2 other bakeries to try, plus the Gol market near downtown.
I vaguely recall Belo Market in Allston possibly also serving it at their snack bar, but am not fully sure about that. There also is the Brazilian Bakery on Harvard Ave which might or might not have.
re: headbroad
Could you please pass on the brand and company name for the sugarcane juice you mentioned?
Itaunas mentioned this place below. Was there this morning and they were making fresh Guarapo as I was buying breakfast. Link to the thread:
Padaria Brasil Bakery
125 Harvard Ave. Allston - 617-202-6783
(Just off the intersection of Harvard and Brighton Ave. towards Commonwealth)
re: StriperGuy
I just noticed your reply on an old thread. Thanks, this is so close to me.
re: headbroad
I saw a sign for yerba buena yesterday at La Chapincita Market on Moody St. in Waltham. I think it was with the cilantro in a refrigerator case. In any event, you may want to give them a call first to be sure it's fresh and not dried, since I wasn't looking specifically for it and may be mistaken.
re: headbroad
I have since had fresh guarapo there. Tasty...
re: headbroad
headbroad I think you mentioned on another thread that you are working in Medford. You might want to give Cabana Grill across from BJ's on Middlesex ave (the right hand side of the 28/middlesex split at Kappy's). I believe they do serve it, but not certain if its all the time. And if you commute back through Somerville, Pastelaria Vitoria Broadway mentioned above which always has it is just off 28 or 99. There are even more options in Everett (Main St is faster than Broadway).... Its called Caldo de Cana at Brazilian markets (and while you are there try a "batida de abacate" a sweet avocado shake). These days it appears to mostly be fresh, but sometimes frozen.
Since this old thread has come to life, I will say that I've found fresh pressed sugarcane juice at Ba Le (vietnamese bakery and banh mi) on Dorchester Avenue. It's authentic caldo de cana and the machine they use is a hell of a lot cleaner than the ones I'm accustomed to in Brazil. Ba Le has a number of fresh sucos and batidos as well as their vietnamese offerings.
Ba Le
1052 Dorchester Ave
Dorchester, MA 02125
(617) 265-7171
The Indian grocery store next to Harvest food coop in central square has a guarapo machine and fresh sugar cane juice.
Yerba buena and guarapo are 2 different things. U already know "guarapo" is sugar cane juice. Now, Yerba buena literally means "good grass", but it is nothing more than spearmint. The next time you make a Mojito, substitute spearmint for the regular mint and you'll have I think a cocktail which is deeper and more pronounced than one made with regular mint. I make it at home in Florida all the time.
re: sinoteveo
I've also gotten fresh squeeze guarapo at Oriental de Cuba restaurant in JP. They are about $3 for a 16oz? cup. It's been awhile since I'd pick one up. But it's squeezed to order. I'd usually ask for it with no ice else it comes with some ice and a wedge of lime.
Kinda wish I have one now. lol

Healthy Thanksgiving Recipes Roundupby Sarah TheHealthyHomeEconomist November 18, 2011
Can you believe it? Thanksgiving is next week!
Do you have enough healthy Thanksgiving recipes to make and share? If not, I have plenty for you to consider for incorporation into your Holiday meal below.
Thanksgiving is a special holiday for this blog, as it marks the anniversary of filming and posting videos of how to incorporate Traditional Cooking techniques in your home.
The very first video I posted was of me making turkey stock with my leftover Thanksgiving turkey bones!
That video was a total lark but folks responded so positively that I decided to start doing them regularly!
I thought it might be nice to round up all the healthy Thanksgiving recipes into one place including any videos. I hope you find something in this list that makes your Thanksgiving hosting duties next week a bit more manageable … and healthy!
Healthy Thanksgiving Recipes
Video: How to Make Turkey Stock: Don't laugh – this was my VERY FIRST video for this blog about 2 years ago. The info is great but I am a serious dweeb on camera! I've hopefully improved a bit since then.
Video: Fermented Potatoes: If you have trouble with mashed potatoes, try this recipe. It makes all that starch a lot more digestible with the bonus of enzymes and probiotics from the fermentation process.
Video: How to Make Gravy: My hubby gets into the act and shows you his awesome gravy making skills in this video!
Pumpkin Pie: What is Thanksgiving without pumpkin pie? This recipe shows you how to make the best tasting pumpkin pie without that nasty evaporated milk from the supermarket!
Pumpkin Cookies (Grain Free): If pumpkin pie is not your thing, try these festive pumpkin cookies instead! Or hey, make both. Your guests will be happy I'm sure.
Pumpkin Bread: Anything pumpkin is a go for Thanksgiving, so if you have some leftover pumpkin puree from making the pies or cookies, try this pumpkin bread recipe.
Get Creative with Leftover Turkey: This post is a recipe for my homemade turkey salad.
Oh, and don't forget ….
If you're flying to your Thanksgiving destination next week, remember to insist on an opt out of the naked body scanners even if TSA agents tell you that they don't do any pat downs! It is your fundamental right, and they can't deny your request. Don't be a lemming like me and go through the machine by mistake!
I hope you get to enjoy at least 1 or 2 of these healthy Thanksgiving recipes during your holiday celebrations.
Bon appetit!

Why? Because you can! And pickle, and jam, or otherwise celebrate the resurgence of the domestic arts our forebears held so dear. Put on your best apron and step into our kitchen, won't you?
When summer fruits start rolling in, you might want to roll out this small batch of pectin booster. Add this apple and lemon pectin concentrate to your batches of low-pectin fruit jam.
Do you love making homemade jams and jellies? Do you enjoy squeezing every last penny out of your produce and mourn the waste of all those apple cores, rinds, seeds, and peels that go into the compost bin? Welcome to homemade pectin!
This pectin is used when you make a citrus jam or marmalade. It is simple or should I say as simple as you make it.
Have an apple tree? Don't miss the chance to make a wonderful jam thickener or fruit tart glaze. This recipe uses unripe apples to make a natural pectin stock, then turns the stock into a shelf-stable jelly.

Simon Cowell: 'I love Rebecca Black single'It might be one of the more agitating singles of recent times (so you've told us), but Simon Cowell has admitted that he loves Rebecca Black's debut single, Friday. Much like Justin Bieber, Black has become an internet sensation since she premiered her music video on Youtube last month, but has also been the subject of much criticism. When asked about the single, Simon Cowell told reporters: "Love it! I've never seen anything cause so much controversy. I think it's genius. "The fact that everyone's getting upset about it is hysterical. Any song to do with the weekend annoys you. "It reminds me of 'Saturday Night', do you remember that song by Whigfield?

Unexplored territories 2011Most film buffs agree that 'Mr India' is the best sci-fi film to have come out of Bollywood. This only shows how little this genre has been explored in India despite sporadic attempts such as 'Koi Mil Gaya' and 'Krrish'. Though the Hindi dubbing of 'Robot', starring Rajnikanth, attempted to bridge the gap in 2010, Shah Rukh's home production 'Ra.One' and the 'Krrish' sequel can help the genre develop. "Indian film industry is technologically proficient today. Whether a sci-fi film would work with the Indian audience depends on how much they can connect with the concept," asserts V Srinivas M Mohan, the VFX supervisor of 'Robot'. by Naina

TUESDAY, March 27 (HealthDay News) --Training more people to
perform CPR would significantly improve heart attack survival
rates, according to a new study in Denmark, where CPR training is
Researchers analyzed 29,000 cardiac arrests that occurred over
the course of a decade and found the proportion of cases involving
bystander CPR more than doubled from 20 percent in 2001 to 44
percent in 2010.
They also found patients who received CPR or were treated with
automated external defibrillators (AEDs) by bystanders before
emergency responders arrived were roughly four times more likely to
be alive 30 days later than those not helped by bystanders.
Cardiac arrest, which occurs when the heart suddenly stops
beating, can result from a heart attack or from accidents such as
electrocution or drowning. AEDs are machines that can restore
normal heart rhythm.
"This study is important because it emphasizes that an increase in bystander resuscitation has a direct impact on survival of patients," said the study's lead investigator, Dr. Mads Wissenberg of Gentofte University Hospital in Copenhagen, in a news release from the American College of Cardiology. "The study also demonstrates that increased availability of AEDs is likely to have an impact on survival."
Organizations in Denmark have promoted CPR training over the
past 10 years, including requiring elementary school students and
people applying for a driver's license to be trained in CPR. Also,
AEDs were placed in more public and private settings across the
country. Based on the success of those efforts, the researchers
said more training initiatives in other countries, such as the
United States, would likely produce similar results.
Despite the increase in bystander CPR, more than half of the
patients analyzed in the study still did not receive CPR from
people nearby, the authors found. AEDs, which are linked to
increased 30-day survival, were also used in less than 2 percent of
the cases examined.
"There is still room for improvements in order to increase the survival following out-of-hospital cardiac arrest even further," said Wissenberg.
The study's findings were slated for presentation Sunday at the
American College of Cardiology meeting in Chicago.
Research presented at meetings is typically considered
preliminary until published in a peer-reviewed medical journal.

In honor of American Craft Beer Week, every day this week I will pay tribute to the six states and one city I have lived in since I was born in 1982, with a beer I haven't had before. It's basically a thinly-veiled excuse to drink a ton of beer, under the guise of "being personal." I'm cool with it if you are.
Day 3: Essential Pale Ale by Port City Brewering — Alexandria, Virginia
Why Virginia? Well, after being born in California and spending a good portion of my childhood inside the District, I moved to Virginia, where I spent many years being an insufferable pre-teen — who thought Smashing Pumpkins understood her inner 12-year-old angst, lulz — living near what would eventually become the Pentagon City mall. Not long after, I would spend a few more years being an even more insufferable high schooler living in Great Falls, Virginia.
Eventually I would move away from the Commonwealth to find myself in exotic destinations, unsullied by the folly of man, like Boston and… Ft. Lauderdale. But eventually I came back. And I brought Patrick with me. And while we were living in a crumbling pre-war apartment in Old Town Alexandria, we got married.
So in honor of those many years, I'm going to do something I haven't done in awhile to honor a beer. For one time only… until, of course, I do it again, it's time for my favorite laziness-inspired tradition, the beer haiku review.
Basically I'm just tired from a super long day at work. So the 5-7-5 missive below is all you're getting from me about the Essential Pale Ale.
Classic, no demands
That's good — I'm not listening
Seriously, sometimes the best beers are the ones that know when to keep it simple. Especially when I all feel like saying right now is, "That's about enough out of you, Wednesday."

Parent involvement
Saint Ignatius has a GREAT group of people (staff & volunteers) who work above and beyond to make the tuition affordable and bring extracurricular programs in for their students. We enrolled our daughter at St. Ignatius for middle school. She was welcomed with open arms by both the staff and the students alike. After having her at another middle school, briefly, where things were not so great, we feel blessed that we were led to Saint Ignatius. She will graduate 8th grade this year and has been accepted to two of the areas top Catholic High Schools. Thank you St. Ignatius (students, staff, & parent volunteers alike!) for being there. We sincerely appreciate you making her feel welcome, nurturing her; spiritually, academically, socially, and succeeding in getting her well equipped for high school - we ll miss you all but will remain in touch if you need us!
St Ignatius is a wonderful school. I met a lot of friendly parents. Teachers are great. I love the school and it is the best. My kids are happy attending the school. My daughter graduated on 2009, then my youngest is now in 8th grade. The education we looking for is what SI gave. We are happy to be a part of the school for 13 yrs.
Great School!! My son just completed the 3rd grade and had a wonderful experience! Everyone is very welcoming, it was a great school year!
Great school from K to 8, tuition is afordable, good teachers. 3 of my kids went there also one of grandsons graduated andanother 2 stiill there, parents involvement means a lot.
I am currently an 8th grader, and I came to SI in 4th. I really love this school! I have made long-lasting friendships throughout my few years here at SI. We now have a guitar class for grades 6-8 sponsored by the Education Through Music Foundation. It's a really fun learning environment and everybody gets along very well.
I attended St. Ignatius from 1984 - 1992. I enjoyed the school and made life long friends that are still part of my inner circle - the majority of us have been friends since kindergarten. After high school, I went on to attend Yale University. I'm proud of attending St. Ignatius and I'm happy to read the positive reviews. I have always felt that the teachers were sincere and caring, and were looking out for the betterment of the students. I do agree that parent involvement can be improved.
If you care about a quality education that is affordable you should really look into this school. You will be impressed with the children as well as the staff. Your child will excel here and you can be assured that he/she will be surrounded by peers who have integrity and determination. A wonderful school in Highland Park!
This really is a great school. The tuition is reasonable and the outcome is priceless. Your child will excel here. Your child will remember this school and make lifetime friendships and learn more than his/her grade level. Make an appointment to explore the possibilities!
I love this school, but most importantly my son does! The teachers are very caring, the students have love and respect for one another, and the school atmosphere is just amazing. I
I really like this school for so many reasons. The teachers are caring. The curriculum is challenging- if your child excels in certain subjects they will bring in materials from the next grade level for them to work on. The environment is secure and comfortable (there is no bullying tolerated at this school). The families are welcoming and there is a definite feeling of camaraderie among them. Enroll your child in this school and he/she will reap the benefits for a lifetime.
Great school- academics, activities, sports, no bullying- this Catholic school is a real gem!
A quality education, affordable tuition and wonderful teachers and staff. Take a tour and have your child sit in on the kindergarten class- you won't be disappointed.
I am a student currently in the 8th grade at St,ignatius. I LOVE THE SCHOOL! The school is all I've ever really known. it is although just like any other school. we have our friends ands stress over tests. over all I think its a pretty good school.
Our family is also a member of the parish since 1996 We have 3 girls attending SI, we have an excellent communication and support with the teachers. Many activities are available for the children. I really enjoy the after school help for an extra hour because the children get to start homework and the teachers are very helpful.
My family have been a part of this parish family since the 70's. I have two children attending this school. There is a sense of pride that this school has continued to improve and get better over the years. There is a great acedemic program and help with any struggling students. The teachers are helpful and will make time for you should the need arise. There are speech contests, science fairs, etc. They have a successful sports program that developed championship teams and athletes over the years. There is a wonderful Builders Club program that assists the community and helps get the children involved at an early age. The overall level of parent involvement needs to be improved. But that is a matter for the parents, themselves. I am involved on a daily basis with the safety valet and crossing guard program, as well as, other areas.
I am an alumn-1977. My daughter is currently a student here. Overall I think the school is good, however, I wish the parent involvement were bettter. We need so much help as far as getting the kids involved in other things outside of what SI can offer. Such as music, arts, etc. Unfortunately, we are not LAUSD so it limits our resource reach. The kids could/should be a bit more challenged academically, its a cruel world out there!
Excellent local with special attention in math, science and reading and writing - they have yearly events such as science fairs, poem/essay contents that are done anually. You can see a tremendous progress of your child during the course of the elementary years.
I went to this school and I graduated June 10,2004. It was a good school. The teachers are awesome and the students are very outgoing. If you want to enroll you child to this school you should becuse he/she would enjoy it.

China's Ministry of Commerce forms two new sub-panels
5 November 2013
Tony Wollenberg, co-founder and senior partner of City firm Rakisons, is a man renowned for bringing his well-practised poker face from the casino to the boardroom. According to one former colleague, his poker death stare has helped in many negotiations - further assisted, presumably, by the tank of exotic fish swimming hypnotically to and fro in his office.
"I have always been fascinated by the psychology of gamblers and the business side of it. Being able to sit down at a table with 10 complete strangers and assess their strengths and weaknesses very quickly - that's a skill that's pretty important in just about every walk of life."
Wollenberg has 20 years of specialist experience in gaming law. He is also a former chairman of spread betting group City Index and is now chief executive of the Zetters pools business.
No doubt his entry into the last Vegas (poker) World Series was a useful warm-up for Rakisons' merger talks with Washington DC firm Steptoe & Johnson. Talks are in the final stages and the two hope to complete the merger on 1 October.
The news follows a string of failed merger attempts since 1992, as 14-partner Rakisons faced up to the increasingly popular notion that the days of smaller commercial firms were numbered.
Wollenberg says: "Having preached for 20 years that size doesn't matter and quality does, I have realised over the past few years that size is important - not per se, but because clients believe size matters. It is an unshakeable belief and you have to cater to it. Those that don't reinvent themselves will fall by the wayside. Real quality work becomes that much harder to attract if you're not a household name."
In late 1992, talks began with major US player Morgan Lewis & Bockius. According to Robert Rakison, who decided to quit for the US firm after the talks collapsed, a cocktail party helped sound the death knell of the merger - during the evening, the then Morgan Lewis chairman Alan Reed asked Wollenberg how long he had been with the firm. Enough said. "Morgan Lewis weren't the right firm for us," is all that Wollenberg will say.
His friendship with Rakison proved far more durable, and the pair continue to share a mutual admiration.
The tale of mergers was continued last year when talks with Stephens Innocent showed promise. This time Rakisons was left smarting after its intended partner announced it would instead join Finers, which advised on the merger talks.
Talks with US firm LeBoeuf Lamb Greene & MacRae also broke down at a late stage in February this year, after Rakisons' head of telecoms Chris Hoyle left for KLegal. LeBoeufs had been looking for a telecoms and IP/IT practice.
This time Wollenberg is confident of the match with Steptoe & Johnson. "We have had a constant eye on this kind of opportunity and as we got to know the firm better over the last few months the logic grew on us. It grew on both sides." The merger will mark a new era for Rakisons and, on the face of it, appears something of a betrayal of its origins as an independent firm.
Wollenberg set up the firm with Rakison in July 1979. During articles, training and post-qualification experience at Goodman Derrick & Co, Wollenberg was inspired by the great Lord Goodman, but quickly grew frustrated with the then establishment mentality of the business.
"I decided pretty early on that setting up my own operation would be the most exciting route rather than joining another set-up," says Wollenberg. Lunches with Rakison, then a senior associate at Travers Smith Braithwaite, confirmed that he was not alone in his distaste for a world that placed greater weight on the old school tie than on merit.
Their decision to set up Rakisons at a Chancery Lane address Wollenberg fondly remembers as an "attic" was ground-breaking in more ways than one. "What we really tried to create was a niche firm, a corporate finance boutique," says Rakison. Their aim was to bridge the huge divide between the "West End cowboys" and the "toffee nosed City", he says. It was a new concept.
The firm's single name - another novelty matched only by Freshfields and Gouldens at the time - owed much to the lingering anti-Semitic climate; Wollenberg insisted that the firm take the name Rakisons rather than his own Jewish name. Among other things, it was thought that Rakisons would be less susceptible to misspelling. As compensation, Wollenberg's name always came first on the firm's headed notepaper and he got the bigger office.
Wollenberg and Rakison also broke from the pack in their professional style. "It was so unusual at that time to go to clients and ask what they wanted to achieve and try to achieve it for them," says Rakison.
The firm's history of doing it the US way will surely sweeten the departure from the firm's roots. Wollenberg says: "There are very few firms of our size left in the City. We had to decide whether to be the exception that proved the rule or to go with the flow. Merging with a UK firm was not the answer. Merging with a US firm was. In many ways the firm is more like a US than a UK firm."
It is not a decision Rakisons has taken lightly. "It was critical to make the right choice. Everyone's futures are at stake," Wollenberg says. But while he predicts little cultural change for Rakisons' staff, there will be some changes for the firm.
The London firm's telecoms, IT and corporate disciplines will undoubtedly receive a boost, and the service to clients will speed up as delays on transatlantic transactions become a thing of the past. More lateral hires are also likely to follow. With Steptoe & Johnson on board Wollenberg says the firm will attract those who might previously have seen Rakisons as a "no-brainer choice".
Wollenberg is also looking forward to having the big financial punch brought by having the US firm on its side. "We've never had a resource issue either in terms of staff or finances, but having their might behind us will be a major plus."

"Tight means good."
Mmmm, Jade, that is REALLY good...
Oh lord. I'd go into the hug shaking, but still alive, and come out of the hug dead. And Gaga would be like "…well shit"
Tori- I love you
Jade- I love you
Sikowitz- *My plan is working!*
G irl next to Sikowitz: What? No kiss? WTF I paid $10 for this!
God I love how much Sikowitz wants them together.
Lane: Awww, cute lesbians.
Cat: I want to get in on this gayness too!
Yay, my parents are hugging!
Robbie: Aww, I knew they liked each other. If only Cat would do me.
Sinjin: I wonder if I can follow them home and watch through their window…
Yeah… Jade, baby, you know there were plenty of other ways to show Tori that you were "angry" that she made you hug her… But if wrestling her to the floor and getting on top of her was your favorite option, that's fine with me.

Scientists have found the first physical evidence of the universe expanding after the Big Bang ", and it's a huge deal
n a world-changing discovery, scientists have discovered the first direct physical evidence of the expansion of the universe in the microseconds following the birth of existence.
A team of Harvard-Smithsonian radio astronomers at the South Pole announced that they've discovered empirical evidence of gravitational waves showing the "universe ballooned out of the Big Bang due to a massive gravitational force generated by space itself." These gravitational waves created by the Big Bang are thought to have rippled throughout reality over the mere 10^-34 seconds required to expand the universe over 100 trillion trillion times. It's being called the biggest discovery in astrophysics in quite some time and has huge implications for our understanding of the universe and its creation.

Nike Air Huarache "Cool Grey"
March 25th, 2014 by Brendan Dunne | 3 comments
Did you miss out on this "Cool Grey" version of the Nike Huarache? If you've not yet learned – it's not a good idea to sit around and wait for any given pair of Nike Air Huaraches to show up in the US, as the sneakers have been stuck in the regionally exclusive mode for a while now. We can only hope that that spell will be broken once the OG "Scream Green" version shows back up in stores towards the end of the year. Continue reading for extra images on the 2014 "Cool Grey" Huaraches and keep in mind that you can grab them now at Caliroots, which will probably be cheaper than eBay.

13 Things It's Time To Stop Avoiding — 8. Understanding that "happy" doesn't mean not having problems, it just means being able to deal with them.
13 Things It's Time To Stop Avoiding | Thought Catalog
You have to stop avoiding the fact that happiness is something you find within yourself even if you're in the trenches of life; it's not something that will come upon you when you're out of them.
Best quote on coffee that has ever been enunciated: "it's like a hug in a cup."
The Unleashed Mind: Why Creative People Are Eccentric [Preview]
In Brief
People who are highly creative often have odd thoughts and behaviors—and vice versa.
Both creativity and eccentricity may be the result of genetic variations that increase cognitive disinhibition—the brain's failure to filter out extraneous information.
When unfiltered information reaches conscious awareness in the brains of people who are highly intelligent and can process this information without being overwhelmed, it may lead to exceptional insights and sensations.

The imperfect attracts us
by Paulo Coelho on December 15, 2012
Beauty exists not in sameness but in difference.
Who could imagine a giraffe without its long neck or a cactus without its spines?
The irregularity of the mountain peaks that surround us is what makes them so imposing. If we tried to make them all the same, they would no longer command our respect.
It is the imperfect that astonishes and attracts us.
A sunset is always more beautiful when it is covered with irregularly shaped clouds, because only then can it reflect the many colours out of which dreams and poetry are made.
Pity those who think: 'I am not beautiful. That's why Love has not knocked at my door.'
In fact, Love did knock, but when they opened the door, they weren't prepared to welcome Love in.
They were too busy trying to make themselves beautiful first, when, in fact, they were fine as they were.
They were trying to imitate others, when Love was looking for something original.
They were trying to reflect what came from outside, forgetting that the brightest light comes from within.
Waking up begins with saying "am" and "now".
I was never teribly fond of waking up.
[O]nly fools possibly escape the simple truth.
That now isn't simply now.
It's a cold reminder. One day later than yesterday. One year later than last year.
It takes time in the morning for me to become George.
The time to adjust to what is expected of George and how he is to behave.
By the time I have dressed and put the final layer of polish on the now slightly stiff but quite perfect George I know fully what part I'm supposed to play.
Looking in the mirror staring back at me isn't so much as a face as the expression of a predicament.
Just get through the goddamn day.
A bit melodramatic, I guess.
5. When in doubt, just wear black
The Only 5 Fashion Tips You'll Ever Need To Know | Thought Catalog
New York taught me this rule and I'll forever be indebted to the city because of it. Ever struggling over what to wear? Just wear black. I'm serious. If you're a girl, just put on a black dress and call it a damn day. If you're a dude, just wear black boots, black jeans, a white t-shirt (to avoid being too goth) and a black jacket. Done. Wearing black makes everyone look a little bit more high fashion, which is ridiculous because it usually requires no innovation or skill. When I dress head to toe in black, it doesn't mean I have a good fashion sense. It just means that I was too lazy to put in any thought to my outfit. It's your go-to, your "Get out of fashion jail free" card. Use it!
