To the Editor: Down's syndrome is the most common genetic disorder; it is recognizable at birth because of its associated cognitive and adaptive impairments. The neuropathological and neurochemical similarities between Down's syndrome and Alzheimer's disease and the role of cholinergic agents such as donepezil hydrochloride as proven symptomatic therapies for Alzheimer's disease led our group to publish what we believe to be the first report on the use of donepezil therapy in Down's syndrome (1).
A subsequent study was performed by Hemingway-Eltomey and Lerner (2). We commend these authors for drawing attention to the needs of patients with Down's syndrome and agree with their rationale for the use of cholinesterase inhibitor therapy (e.g., donepezil) to treat this syndrome. The authors reported on three patients with comorbid adult Down's syndrome and Alzheimer's disease, aged 57, 59, and 65, respectively, who developed adverse effects when treated with donepezil (2). Two patients were reported to develop urinary incontinence during donepezil therapy (one after 4 months; the other after an unspecified period). The third patient did well taking 5 mg/day, but the patient's behavior worsened when the dose was increased to 10 mg/day. At this point, the investigators discontinued the patient's therapy.
Our experience with the use of donepezil in adult patients with Down's syndrome has been different. In our initial pilot study (1), four patients (mean age=38 years, range=24–64) were treated for an average of 40.5 weeks (one individual was treated for 80 weeks). There were no reports of urinary incontinence or sustained worsening of behavior. Two of the four patients also met DSM-IV criteria for dementia. All of the patients had begun treatment with 5 mg/day of donepezil, which was increased to 10 mg/day after a minimum of 6 weeks. Transient diarrhea in one patient and agitation lasting 2 weeks in another patient at the time of the dose increase were the only side effects we observed (1). We have since treated five additional patients (mean age=42 years and 8 months, range=23–42) for an average duration of 18.2 weeks (range=5–27 weeks) and found tolerability to be good (unpublished data).
These data highlight the difficulties encountered in extrapolating tolerability and causality of adverse events from small case studies. In addition, elderly patients with Alzheimer's disease and Down's syndrome often have multiple comorbidities and are taking concomitant medications that can confound the attribution of causality for adverse events in uncontrolled studies. For example, in patients with Alzheimer's disease, agitation can result from the natural progression of dementia, from environmental or social triggers, from worsening of medical illnesses, and/or as a side effect of their medications. Clinical experience with more than 1 million elderly patients with Alzheimer's disease worldwide has suggested that donepezil is generally well tolerated.
In data from the U.S. phase II and III pivotal Alzheimer's disease clinical trials, which ranged from 3 to 6 months' duration (donepezil-treated group: N=747, placebo-treated group: N=355), 3% of the individuals in the placebo group reported urinary incontinence, compared to 1% of the donepezil group. Agitation was reported in 7% of the patients taking placebo compared to 4% of those taking donepezil. The dose of donepezil in the phase II trial ranged from 1 to 5 mg/day, whereas in the phase III trial, it was either 5 or 10 mg/day after 1 week at a dose of 5 mg/day (data available from Eisai, Inc.). In general, cholinergic side effects can be minimized by increasing the dose from 5 to 10 mg/day more slowly (e.g., after 6 weeks, rather than 1 week) (from donepezil package insert), by instituting temporary drug holidays, and/or by decreasing the dose from 10 to 5 mg/day if side effects occur at the higher dose (3). However, readers must bear in mind that donepezil has not been systematically investigated for use in patients with Down's syndrome. Randomized controlled clinical trials of cholinergic therapy are warranted in adult and pediatric patients with Down's syndrome; both are currently underway at our center.

Go Back
Dear relatives and friends, when my last breath
Grows large and free in air, don't call it death --
A word to enrich the undertaker and inspire
His surly art of imitating life; conspire
Against him. Say that my body cannot now
Be improved upon; it has no fault to show
To the sly cosmetician. Say that my flesh
Has a perfect compliance with the grass
Truer than any it could have striven for.
You will recognize the earth in me, as before
I wished to know it in myself: my earth
That has been my care and faithful charge from birth,
And toward which all my sorrows were surely bound,
And all my hopes. Say that I have found
A good solution, and am on my way
To the roots. And say I have left my native clay
At last, to be a traveler; that too will be so.
Traveler to where? Say you don't know.
But do not let your ignorance
Of my spirit's whereabouts dismay
You, or overwhelm your thoughts.
Be careful not to say
Anything too final. Whatever
Is unsure is possible, and life is bigger
Than flesh. Beyond reach of thought
Let imagination figure
Your hope. That will be generous
To me and to yourselves. Why settle
For some know-it-all's despair
When the dead may dance to the fiddle
Hereafter, for all anybody knows?
And remember that the Heavenly soil
Need not be too rich to please
One who was happy in Port Royal.
I may be already heading back,
A new and better man, toward
That town. The thought's unreasonable,
But so is life, thank the Lord!
So treat me, even dead,
As a man who has a place
To go, and something to do.
Don't muck up my face
With wax and powder and rouge
As one would prettify
An unalterable fact
To give bitterness the lie.
Admit the native earth
My body is and will be,
Admit its freedom and
Its changeability.
Dress me in the clothes
I wore in the day's round.
Lay me in a wooden box.
Put the box in the ground.
Beneath this stone a Berry is planted
In his home land, as he wanted.
He has come to the gathering of his kin,
Among whom some were worthy men,
Farmers mostly, who lived by hand,
But one was a cobbler from Ireland,
Another played the eternal fool
By riding on a circus mule
To be remembered in grateful laughter
Longer than the rest. After
Doing that they had to do
They are at ease here. Let all of you
Who yet for pain find force and voice
Look on their peace, and rejoice.
The longer we are together
the larger death grows around us.
How many we know by now
who are dead! We, who were young,
now count the cost of having been.
And yet as we know the dead
we grow familiar with the world.
We, who were young and loved each other
ignorantly, now come to know
each other in love, married
by what we have done, as much
as by what we intend. Our hair
turns white with our ripening
as though to fly away in some
coming wind, bearing the seed
of what we know. It was bitter to learn
that we come to death as we come
to love, bitter to face
the just and solving welcome
that death prepares. But that is bitter
only to the ignorant, who pray
it will not happen. Having come
the bitter way to better prayer, we have
the sweetness of ripening. How sweet
to know you by the signs of this world!
Love the quick profit, the annual raise,
vacation with pay. Want more
of everything ready-made. Be afraid
to know your neighbors and to die.
And you will have a window in your head.
Not even your future will be a mystery
any more. Your mind will be punched in a card
and shut away in a little drawer.
When they want you to buy something
they will call you. When they want you
to die for profit they will let you know.
So, friends, every day do something
that won't compute. Love the Lord.
Love the world. Work for nothing.
Take all that you have and be poor.
Love someone who does not deserve it.
Denounce the government and embrace
the flag. Hope to live in that free
republic for which it stands.
Give your approval to all you cannot
understand. Praise ignorance, for what man
has not encountered he has not destroyed.
Ask the questions that have no answers.
Invest in the millenium. Plant sequoias.
Say that your main crop is the forest
that you did not plant,
that you will not live to harvest.
Say that the leaves are harvested
when they have rotted into the mold.
Call that profit. Prophesy such returns.
Put your faith in the two inches of humus
that will build under the trees
every thousand years.
Listen to carrion -- put your ear
close, and hear the faint chattering
of the songs that are to come.
Expect the end of the world. Laugh.
Laughter is immeasurable. Be joyful
though you have considered all the facts.
So long as women do not go cheap
for power, please women more than men.
Ask yourself: Will this satisfy
a woman satisfied to bear a child?
Will this disturb the sleep
of a woman near to giving birth?
Go with your love to the fields.
Lie down in the shade. Rest your head
in her lap. Swear allegiance
to what is nighest your thoughts.
As soon as the generals and the politicos
can predict the motions of your mind,
lose it. Leave it as a sign
to mark the false trail, the way
you didn't go.
Be like the fox
who makes more tracks than necessary,
some in the wrong direction.
Practice resurrection.
Like the water
of a deep stream,
love is always too much.
We did not make it.
Though we drink till we burst,
we cannot have it all,
or want it all.
In its abundance
it survives our thirst.
In the evening we come down to the shore
to drink our fill,
and sleep,
while it flows
through the regions of the dark.
It does not hold us,
except we keep returning to its rich waters
We enter,
willing to die,
into the commonwealth of its joy.
The hill pasture, an open place among the trees,
tilts into the valley. The clovers and tall grasses
are in bloom. Along the foot of the hill
dark floodwater moves down the river.
The sun sets. Ahead of nightfall the birds sing.
I have climbed up to water the horses
and now sit and rest, high on the hillside,
letting the day gather and pass. Below me
cattle graze out across the wide fields of the bottomlands,
slow and preoccupied as stars. In this world
men are making plans, wearing themselves out,
spending their lives, in order to kill each other.
The poem is important, but
not more than the people
whose survival it serves,
one of the necessities, so they may
speak what is true, and have
the patience for beauty: the weighted
grainfield, the shady street,
the well-laid stone and the changing tree
whose branches spread above.
For want of songs and stories
they have dug away the soil,
paved over what is left,
set up their perfunctory walls
in tribute to no god,
for the love of no man or woman,
so that the good that was here
cannot be called back
except by long waiting, by great
sorrows remembered and to come
by invoking the thunderstones
of the world, and the vivid air.
The poem is important,
as the want of it
proves. It is the stewardship
of its own possibility,
the past remembering itself
in the presence of
the present, the power learned
and handed down to see
what is present
and what is not: the pavement
laid down and walked over
regardlessly--by exiles, here
only because they are passing.
Oh, remember the oaks that were
here, the leaves, purple and brown,
falling, the nuthatches walking
headfirst down the trunks,
crying "onc! onc!" in the brightness
as they are doing now
in the cemetery across the street
where the past and the dead
keep each other. To remember,
to hear and remember, is to stop
and walk on again
to a livelier, surer measure.
It is dangerous
to remember the past only
for its own sake, dangerous
to deliver a message
you did not get.
The ewes crowd to the mangers;
Their bellies widen, sag;
Their udders tighten. Soon
The little voices cry
In morning cold. Soon now
The garden must be worked,
Laid off in rows, the seed
Of life to come brought down
Into the dark to rest,
Abide awhile alone,
And rise. Soon, soon again
The cropland must be plowed,
For the years promise now
Answers the years desire,
Its hunger and its hope.
This goes against the time
When food is bought, not grown.
O come into the market
With cash, and come to rest
In this economy
Where all we need is money
To be well stuffed and free
By sufferance of our Lord,
The Chairman of the Board.
Because theres thus no need
To plant ones ground with seed.
Under the seasons sway,
Against the best advice,
In time of death and tears,
In slow snowfall of years,
Defiant and in hope,
We keep an older way
In light and breath to stay
This household on its slope
The year begins with war.
Our bombs fall day and night,
Hour after hour, by death
Abroad appeasing wrath,
Folly, and greed at home.
Upon our giddy tower
We'd oversway the world.
Our hate comes down to kill
Those whom we do not see,
For we have given up
Our sight to those in power
And to machines, and now
Are blind to all the world.
This is a nation where
No lovely thing can last.
We trample, gouge, and blast;
The people leave the land;
The land flows to the sea.
Fine men and women die,
The fine old houses fall,
The fine old trees come down:
Highway and shopping mall
Still guarantee the right
And liberty to be
A peaceful murderer,
A murderous worshipper,
A slender glutton, Forgiving
No enemy, forgiven
By none, we live the death
Of liberty, become
What we have feared to be.
Geese appear high over us,
pass, and the sky closes. Abandon,
as in love or sleep, holds
them to their way, clear
in the ancient faith: what we need
is here. And we pray, not
for new earth or heaven, but to be
quiet in heart, and in eye,
clear. What we need is here.
It may be that when we no longer know what to do
we have come our real work,
and that when we no longer know which way to go
we have come to our real journey.
The mind that is not baffled is not employed.
The impeded stream is the one that sings.

How often do you........................
Find a Conversation
|Fri, 05-22-2009 - 8:10am
Not often enough! I always feel too guilty to take time for myself during the day, especially if the house is dirty or there is laundry to do. I have to force myself to leave it sometimes so I can scrapbook. But then I am usually up late at night cleaning the house, LOL, because I can't go to bed if the house is messy!
I would LOVE a girls lunch out one of these days, most of my friends work though so it's next to impossible to arrange something!
|Fri, 05-22-2009 - 12:07pm
I hear you, Beth. I don't take enough time for myself either! I have been trying to go see a movie with my best friend once a month! I have been up all night cleaning my house too. I like to clean when no one is around, so since I home school and DH is up in the afternoons as well as my oldest is home some during the day, it is just easier for me to clean at night!
Ohhh, a girl's lunch sounds like a lot of fun!!!
|Mon, 05-25-2009 - 8:53pm
NO - I don't!!!! That is one thing that DH has been bugging me about as we both try to get me back to my normal pre-fertility treatment stressmonster self!
Today, however, I took a 3-mile walk and it felt great. Felt a little guilty not being with DH and DD on the holiday, but it was only about 45 minutes and I really needed it.
I am SUCH a list maker, but DH can't understand why I don't book 'me time' into my lists.
How do we fix this ladies??? What a stress-reliever if we actually have proper time to ourselves!
|Mon, 05-25-2009 - 10:52pm
Go Aimee! That is awesome that you took that walk today! I think we are better women, mothers and wives when we take care of ourselves. I am a list maker too and I have started scheduling exercising and at least one other thing that I want to do during the day! It might only be reading one magazine article, but that 10-15 minutes of peace is so refreshing! Today I painted my toe nails and read some of my book while they dried!
What I need to stop feeling guilty about is getting a sitter so DH and I can have some time together. DH wants to go away for a weekend and I get this pit in my stomach when I think about it. I know the kids will be fine with a grandparent, but I don't know if I can be away from them that long!!! EEKK!
I am all for relieving tension and stress!!! :)

Tuesday's OTA Notes
Here are a few updates from Tuesday's practice.
Jason Garrett seems to be a little different during practice so far in 2009. Yesterday he actually got mad at Jason Witten when he had a false start, yelling…
"get me another tight end!"
The same thing happened when a false start was called on Leonard Davis.
"Get me a new right guard!"
It was reported that Davis walked over to Garrett and said something, but Garrett just ignored him. Wade Phillips pulled Davis from the first team for one play because of the false start. There is something about this that I like. Many people have said that this team is too soft and we all know how many penalties they have been called for in recent years. Most of those penalties were at the worst possible times.
Although it has been reported that Tony Romo and Roy Williams have been working a lot together. In yesterday's seven-on-seven drills they were not on the same page as they missed on several passes. Looks like they need to keep working. Which is what these OTA's are all about.
Sam Hurd was the latest to hit the injury list with a sore quadriceps muscle. It is not believed to be anything serious. This goes along with injuries to Isaiah Stanback (torn meniscus), Rodney Hannah (broken finger), Tim Anderson (toe), Jason Hatcher (knee), Kyle Kosier (foot) and Nick Folk (hip).
Mike Jenkins and Orlando Scandrick received first team reps opposite Terrence Newman. Mike Mickens has yet to attend the OTA's until he officially graduates. DeAngeloSmith has worked at corner and safety. Newman broke up multiple plays on Tuesday while also coming close to intercepting a Romo pass that could have gone for a touchdown. Fifth round pick safety Michael Hamlin has been getting praise from coach Brett Maxie for his play and he also calls him a sponge. Everything that is asked of Hamlin, he then takes it onto the field and performs at a high level.
The Cowboys released cornerback Tra Battle and defensive tackle Casey Tyler on Tuesday.
A new twist to the Cowboys offense was when the first team scored in the red zone on a Marion Barber halfback pass to Patrick Crayton.
It's still early, but I'm starting to like many of the things I'm reading about the Cowboys. I especially like the toughness from Garrett and Phillips. I think that is what this team needs. They need to be coached and praised when everything is working, but also called out when things are not working. I really hope that not being in the spotlight (Hard Knocks) this season will help them. Keep working guys. It will all pay off in the end.
Awesome! Sounds good to me. I really like that toughness from the coaches you are talking about. We have needed that for a while!
Stanback is hurt, and the summer is hot.
And I like that about Garrett too, but let's not go cutting Witten! J/K.
All Im saying is they need to work on false starts! PENALTIES KILLED US!
I'm surprised Flozel didn't jump off sides.
What is the deal with these back up receivers?
It's always something with these three!!!
Isiah Stanback
Miles Austin
Sam Hurd
Kinda frustrating if you get what I mean…
Well im glad he is making an effort on cutting down on false start. Than means our beloved Flozell Adams better get his timing right, we all know he lead the NFL on false start last year.

Add comments to Tumblr
Tumblr strangely does not have any commenting functionality built into its blogging platform which is kind of a basic requirement for any blogging platform. Thankfully, we can get across this problem using DISQUS in 3 simple steps :-
Image via CrunchBase
1) Register your tumblr site at Disqus.com.
Enter your blog information and choose a shortname. For Example, I choose techstreak for techstreak.tumblr.com. Enter your primary disqus account information (This you have to do only once. To register other blogs you can use the same primary account.)
2) Choose appropriate settings and continue.
Select tumblr on install page.
Follow the instructions on this page. Open the blog customization page. If you are using the theme supported by disqus, you just need to use the shortname (in my case techstreak) you registered with. However if your theme does not show disqus option like mine, you will need to follow Manual Instructions.
3) Click on Edit HTML on customization page of your blog.
Copy the first snippet and insert it into correct location. For Example, I inserted the script after {/block:Posts}.
Do the same for other snippet, which I inserted before {/block:Posts}.
And it's done. Congratulations!!
Tip: You might wanna enable people to comment using their facebook, google IDs by modifying general settings in your Disqus account.

I hate when people say "A woman's body was designed to give birth."
No, giving birth is just something a woman's body can do.
If we follow that logic, then because a man's body can reach sexual climax via anal penetration, all men were designed for gay sex.
Needless to say, like gay sex, childbirth is just not some people's cup of tea.

When Sex Goes to School: Warring Views on Sex Since the Sixties by Kristin Luker (Norton, 416 pages, $25.95)
From a parent's point of view, it's easy to see how sex education would be a disaster: How can a teacher standing in front of 30 embarrassed pubescent boys and girls do justice to the complicated and personal issues around sex?
From a policy point of view, however, sex education is a necessary evil: It offers information that young people need but often don't receive from their parents (who would impart their own values in the process) because too many parents -- by message, example, or default -- teach their children that unprotected and non-monogamous sex is OK, pregnancy and sexually transmitted diseases notwithstanding.
Kristin Luker is right, then, when she argues in her new book When Sex Goes to School that values are at the heart of the debate over sex education. The central purpose of sex education, however, is not to teach values but to cut down on the social costs of unwanted pregnancy and sex-related illnesses. And it is here that Luker and I part ways.
As Luker shows, much of the history of sex education in this country has, in fact, been an attempt to teach not about sex but about values -- specifically values regarding marriage and the role of women in society. In a couple of engaging historical chapters, among the most interesting in her book, Luker takes us back to a little-discussed sexual revolution at the turn of the 20th century. That earlier revolution, spearheaded by prominent Progressives, was the first to introduce sex education into America. The movement was overtly feminist -- it sought to do away with prostitution and the exploitation of women. And it was overtly feminine -- the early sex-ed activists promoted a

Are you eating Chinese food on 8-8-08 ... what and where?
- rworange Aug 7, 2008 09:02 AM
Since that is a Chinese lucky number and the opening ceremonies of the Olympics ... it seems like a theme day.
I'm planning on eating at Jac's Asian Bistro in El Cerrito where every single item price ends in 88 cents. I'll probably go big-time and get one of the dishes that are $8.88.
Maybe the steak cubes and snap peas in xo sauce or baked Portuguese chicken.
What Chinese dishes are thought to bring good luck?
re: Robert Lauriston
Good one
re: rworange
Yes, I was thinking Larkin Street Deli, for similar reasons.
re: nicedragonboy
How about 8:08pm?
Braised Pork Hocks, the angle of the pork hock is like putting your hand behind you back for pick some loose cash. So this dish for Chinese New Years or before you go to wage can mean "riches from the back door". So tomorrow night is good luck food. Braise pork shank, Fat Choy mixed beef and pork meatballs and minced oyster lettuce cups.
Fat Choy a black sea moss or some kind of moss sounds like getting rich
Minced oyster hash in lettuce is also sound like getting rich.
Why go out when you can have home cooking.
From the Yutopian web site:
Eight- Ba Bao, Ba Xian, Ba Zhen
Ba is eight. Ba Bao, Ba Xian and Ba Zhen all refer to dishes of eight ingredients. Bao means treasures; there is Ba Bao Tofu, Ba Bao Fish and desserts of Ba Bao Rice Pudding and Ba Bao Stuffed Pears. Ba Xian came from the legendary story of the eight fairies; there is Ba Xian Sea Food. Drunken Ba Xian refers to dishes that use a wine base yeast. Zhen means precious, e.g. Ba Zhen Duck.
re: Xiao Yang
XY, did you wait to be the 8th poster in this thread? Thanks all.
i made an account just to reply to this message cuz no one had said it yet.
the word for fish in chinese sounds exactly the same as the word for abundance and good fortune in chinese, so chinese people eat fish on holidays.
i definately know theres more good luck dishes but I can't think of any at the moment.
re: Aeroshark
can't leave out chicken - another must have on those auspicious days!
re: gordon wing
Portuguese chicken it is then
if i wasn't celebrating my 8/8/(0)8 birthday, and didn't have other plans, i might consider trying out zone 88, based on reports here.
Since I eat Chinese food almost every day, it dosen't matter whether I do it on this day or not. Just be aware that wedding restaurants will be filled to the rim with wedding banquets today.
Memory plays tricks, but I seem to recall attending almost 20 years ago a co-worker's "red egg and ginger buffet" somewhere in Chinatown. It was, truth be told, a shotgun wedding (she wasn't even Chinese, her husband was), so now I don't remember if we were celebrating the impending marriage or the impending baby (I think it was the baby). But it was a buffet designed to impart good fortune. Aside from, well, red eggs and ginger, I don't really remember what was served.
re: Xiao Yang
In many cultures because of high infant mortality rates, you wouldn't celebrate too much until the baby had shown some indication it would survive. In China it's a month, but in some cultures, a child wasn't named until it was a year old.
re: Ruth Lafler
I was once at a one-year borthday party for a Filipino infant (first-born male). It was quite a bash, with a whole roast pig as the centerpiece of a feast.
In traditional Chinese homes, the mother spent a month in bed after giving birth. I think the ginger is to energize here.
Take out from Little Sichuan in San Mateo. I picked up the Cumin Lamb and the Dry Cooked Shrimp from the special Sichuan menu, pork dumplings, General Cho's pork, and dry cooked string beans from the regular menu (I had to balance the choices out a bit for my audience). Most everything was great (the string beans were a little boring) and my mom commented that it was the spiciest Chinese food that she's ever had, and my mom has a high spice tolerance. They certainly didn't tone down the spice for the non Chinese tongue.
re: JasmineG
Jaz, could you please say more about the dry cooked shriimp? Haven't had that dish at Little Sichuan.
Little Sichuan
168 E 4th Ave, San Mateo, CA 94401
re: Melanie Wong
The general preparation was similar to the lamb with cumin -- it had green peppers, onions, scallions, etc along with the shrimp (the leftovers are with my mom and sister, I think there may have been red bell pepper along with that, but I'm not sure). Very spicy dish, lots of sichuan peppers crusted the shrimp. Very flavorful, I'd order it again.
re: JasmineG
Thanks, and really, it's ok to not excavate the leftovers for microanalysis!

The older kids are different because I think Isabella is out of school and I am not sure about his son but I assume he has some flexibility with his schooling so it would be very simple for them to fly out and see him wherever and whenever they feel. Also he can speak to Suri via Skype, telephone whatever in this day and age. That is not abandonment by any stretch but just the reality of being a divorced working parent.

When this article came out (it was last fall) he claimed he could not see her because of work commitments but then he would spend his free weekends in London clubs with his other children.

It is one thing to say you are busy with work, but when you seem to have unlimited time to see your children who your cult, oops sorry church approves of, you have to wonder about his "work" story.

Personally I feel she is probably better without him around as I doubt he can turn off his Scientology.

Whether he is her biological father or not, he's her dad. And if he was going to be a dad who sees his daughter every chance he gets and play an important role in her life, awesome. But he isn't. Instead, he's a "Disneyland Daddy" (taken from The Baby-Sitters Club): someone who hardly ever sees his kid, but when he does he goes over the top trying to buy the kid's love without actually acting like a parent.

So, I think it would be best if he was going to parent her; second best would be to fade away and let Katie's next boyfriend or husband assume the parenting role.Karenhttp://firstname.lastname@example.com:blogger.com,1999:blog-37309174.post-64381640218751953942013-02-15T06:59:48.724-08:002013-02-15T06:59:48.724-08:00I think it is despicable that they are using a chi...I think it is despicable that they are using a child to go after Tom Cruise. Suri is exactly where a child her age should be which is in school and when she has holidays she sees her father. I don't see how that is abandonment or neglect. Tom and Katie seem to have reached a deal which puts the best interests of Suri first and I think Tom would be criticized if he insisted on having her taken out of school and tutored so she could travel more frequently to whatever set he is on. Take him on for scientology, workaholic etc but leave the kids out of it.smileyhttp://email@example.com

My father in law has a nice airless I guess I could borrow. I just need to figure out if I want a solid color or the antiqued look.
Has anyone used Rustoleum cabinet transformations? Just saw it at the box store.
How would you compare that finish to paint? Would it be worth it for a guy who is not the best at painting to spend the money on a product like that? How does it look close up?
I have about half of what you did to do. I am just so far up in the air on what I want. I want it nice and only want to do it once. I don't mind taking time to get it right. My original plan was to sand and stain but half of these cheap cabinets are not real wood. I like the white look so I may just stick with that. Decisions.
The g/f's kitchen is old, walnut cabinets and she just installed beautiful new granite. I am also thinking about painting them white to really make the granite shine.
I'm telling ya guys, white kitchens are back in style.
Spray it white and update the hardware.
I am doing black Granite counter tops. 12 x 12's like we used to do before slabs came out. Also have all black appliances. I think white will look pretty good.

have lots of onions... ideas other than soup?
I have about 4 lbs of onions at home, and am moving in 3 weeks. I hate to waste food, and would like to use these up before then.
With this many onions I would typically make a big batch of french onion soup, but am wondering if anyone has other ideas for using up a fairly large amount of onions?
Marcella Hazan has a superb recipe for spaghetti with smothered onions, I think in her second book. At any rate, you slice a LOT of onions quite thin, then sweat them in a frying pan with oil, and she may use butter but I don't, then when they are practically a mush, you pour on a glass of white wine and let it evaporate. When the onions are golden brown, they're ready. Mix in the spaghetti, cooked al dente, and add freshly grated parmigiano. Instead of parmigiano, you can add a can of good-quality Italian tuna, broken up with a fork.
Fritatta with onions is also fabulous. Again, thin slice a LOT of onions and cook slowly until they are a sweet golden mush. Add them to beaten eggs and proceed as for any frittata.
re: mbfant
the smothered spaghetti sounds unique and tasty (and would also use up some other dry goods I have laying around the pantry). Does it use any herbs? I am specifically thinking thyme
re: mbfant
She also is known for her really simple pasta sauce recipe that is just a half a stick of butter, and half a peeled onion (not chopped) and a 28 ounce can of crushed tomatoes. Just throw it all in a pan and let it simmer for an hour or so.
Slice them and sautee, removing some when golden and letting the rest caramelize, then divvy up and freeze. The oil will keep them from being rock-solid, so you can pry off smaller amounts as needed to add to various dishes, burgers, pizza. Having cooked onions, and sliced/chopped raw ones, in the freezer really speeds meal preparation.
re: Becca Porter
I'll have to try to check that out, I "made up" a recipe with brisket and caramelized onions. Would love to see what they did with it.
My other recommendation was caramelized onions. You could also make it into an onion marmalade, if you wanted.
ETA: I forgot to add, if you want something "quick" to do with them, you could do a refrigerator pickle of the onions. Serve them in salads, or on top of tacos, things like that.
re: Scott D
do you need to pre-cook the sausage?
Onion Chutney....
Braised Pork Shoulder with Onions. I saw an episode on Lydia's Italy where she made the dish with four pounds of thin sliced onions.....looked great.
An onion tart - Wonderful as a side or even main dish with a salad.
Onion conserve to be used smeared on great big fat juicy blue cheese burgers
or as a stuffing for fat pork chops. Onion gravy/sauce is delicious with mashed potatoes.
This Zuni Cafe recipe for a Chard, Onion & Gruyère Panade is really delicious and uses 1 1/2 pounds of onions. It's not difficult; the directions simply look long because Judy Rodgers gives very detailed instructions.
This is a really tasty (and pretty) Tomato and Onion Tart from Gourmet.
You could also may this simple yet really satisfying recipe from Gourmet for Beer-Braised Beef and Onions. It would use 3 pounds!
As others suggesting, you could always make pickled onions (which I love) but then you'd have to move them with you. You could also make onion rings (baked or fried) or onion fritters.
re: toveggiegirl
this looks amazing. Funny -- I was in Sardinia recently and ordered soup for lunch one day. What came out was not regular soup, but (now I understand) a panade. I had no idea what it was, and had never seen/tasted anything like it before. So, thanks for the recipe and reminding me of a nice memory
re: jcarlile
Wow, I wish I tried it in Sardinia. I'm glad you solved the mystery! Let me know if you try it. It's pretty great.
re: toveggiegirl
I love that Panade recipe! It is really delicious and well worth making. I also love most french onion tarts and they will freeze well if you make a pair.
I'd caramelize the lot of them and freeze them in 1-cup increments for use later.
re: LindaWhit
Yep, was going to suggest the lovely caramelized....and I've read that you CAN freeze them for up to 3 months.
re: ipsedixit
Sorry to yuck your yum, but yuck. I thought my Dad was the only person in the world to eat onion sandwiches! I love onions, but not as the main event.
re: ipsedixit
No - an onion sandwich is made with butter and sprinkled with vinegar. Rye bread is good, though.
That said caramelize the onions (slow cooker is the least labor-intensive way if you have to pack) and make onion dip, onion soup, onions on sandwiches, on burgers, on pasta (I like with a good thick yogurt over pasta)
Slowly carmelize sliced onions in butter, and add a bit of sherry and rosemary at the end.
Make a pizza crust (fresh is best), and spread with the carmelized onion mixture. Top with your choice of other ingredient - a bit of blue cheese is wonderful, or black olives, feta cheese and fresh tomatoes. It works best if there's a bit of bite in the cheese, as the onions are quite rich.
Bake as you would a normal pizza.
re: classylady
Mujadderah (multiple spellings), which at its simplest, is lentils and rice which is both mixed and topped with crispy browned sliced onions. It can be done with vermicelli instead of the rice, or even bulgur. The onions completely make this dish. Ditto for Kasha Varnikshes (toasted buckwheat cooked and mixed with bowtie pasta (farfalle or farfallini) and topped with crispy fried onions.
How about a pissaladiere, which is a Provencal take on a pizza. You could use at least 3 or 4 onions and caramelize them slowly, as the coating for the pissaladiere's crust. Along with olives and anchovies, it is very savory.
I love onions in pasta. I usually caramelize red onion, but any would work. I toss it with roasted eggplant, cherry tomatoes, penne and feta. Or whatever is in the fridge. One time, I sauteed kale, and sliced a chicken sausage instead of the eggplant and tomatoes. Also, cook up a big batch of pierogies-or even make the frozen ones, and smother a bunch of fried onions on top. YUM!
Once found a 5 lb bag of onions that got "lost" in my totally organized kitchen?!? Long enough that a few had just started sprouting. Didn't want to toss but knew I'd never use them up quickly enough. I sliced them all up and caramelized the whole bunch. They cook WAY down. Ended up with brown goodies to start a pot of soup at a later date to stash in freezer.
re: ChiliDude
Yes! I have a recipe for a sort of onion tarte tatin that's made with a cheddar biscuit dough. Google "Supper onion pie"
Slice them 1/3 inch thick (horizontally) and put on an oiled and salted sheet pan (I just rub oil and sprinkle salt on a sheet pan covered in foil because I'm lazy and it's easier than coating each slice on both sides) then sprinkle upside with salt and olive oil. Roast in oven at 375 for however long it takes for them to roast and start to brown (I like really brown but take them out when you like). Oven roasted onion slices are the best side dish or condiment ever! Serve with burgers, as the veggie to go with roasted chicken or fish, etc.
re: chinaplate
Well, duh, never thought of this! Do they come out akin to carmelized onions? Thanks for the tip.
Haven't made it in years but after I got married (1968!) I
regularly made Julia's recipe for soubise - slow cooked rice
with lots of onions! Think it was probably in "Mastering" -
should be easy to track down.
- fried onion rings
- add them to meatloaf
- some batches of frozen sofrito
- rice pilaf
- hot onion dip, or french onion dip from scratch
- dehydrate some of them for later use
- caramelize onion and guyerre pizza with fresh thyme

Thanh Thao
Medium sized budget hotel
What we say:
Thanh Thao has rooms varying in price depending on their location within the building. In other words, rooms at the back are cheapest, rooms at the front have a balcony and are more expensive. Nothing spectacular going on here, all the rooms look exactly the same accept for their location. They have a fridge with mini bar, a TV and air con. Staying in the middle of the hotel wouldn't be fun unless you aren't a fan of natural light. Balcony rooms again offer the best deal here, but for the price, Hoang Son is better.

Now a writer can make himself a nice career while he is alive by espousing a political cause, working for it, making a profession of believing in it, and if it wins he will be very well placed. All politics is a matter of working hard without reward, or with a living wage for a time, in the hope of booty later. A man can be a Fascist or a Communist and if his outfit gets in he can get to be an ambassador or have a million copies of his books printed by the Government or any of the other rewards the boys dream about.

Ernest Miller Hemingway (July 21, 1899 July 2, 1961) was an American novelist and short story writer whose works, drawn from his wide range of experiences in World War I, the Spanish Civil War, and World War II, are characterized by terse minimalism and understatement; they exerted a significant influence on the development of twentieth century fiction. Hemingway's protagonists are typically stoic male individuals, often interpreted as projections of his own character, who must master "grace under pressure". Many of his works, like The Sun Also Rises, A Farewell to Arms and The Old Man and the Sea, are now considered classics in the canon of American literature.


text: This is a surprisingly long and detailed article about a non-Native guy living on the Pine Ridge Indian Reservation in South Dakota, playing Assassin's Creed 3 with Native friends and getting their reactions to the first Indian protagonist of a AAA title. It's actually much more about the people of the rez than it is about the game, but it's balanced, funny, and really interesting. I've spent a little time on Pine Ridge, and my brother has lived there for years, and I appreciate this authentic account of the history and current lives of the people there.

At least the Chicago White Sox avoided the sweep to the Cleveland Indians on Sunday. Now it is time to focus on the Chicago Cubs with two games at Wrigley Field and two games at US Cellular Field this week.
Entering this upcoming series, the White Sox are 15-17 overall this season, as they are 4-6 in their past 10 games. The Cubs are last in the in the NL Central with an overall record of 11-18, as they are also 4-6 in their past 10 games.
So what can we expect of this series?
Neither team is over the .500 mark of the season, and neither team this season has really put together a good streak of wins, so who knows what will happen.
But, I really love this series (though it has lost a little luster), because it is always fun to play the Cubs, no matter what the record are of the two teams.
Last season, the White Sox were 0-4 against the Cubs, as the White Sox scored just eight runs in the series. They allowed the Cubs to score 32 runs in this four games for the Crosstown Cup.
The first game of this series should be a good pitchers duel with the White Sox sending Jose Quintana (1-2, 4.00 ERA) and the Cubs having Jeff Samardzija (0-3, 1.98 ERA).
Should be a fun series, and let's hope it goes better than last season. It is time for the White Sox to get some bragging rights for a change.
In other White Sox news:
• The Chicago Sun-Times says the White Sox are already missing Adam Eaton.
• The Chicago Tribune has a video on Dayan Viciedo following the 4-3 win on Sunday. He hit a three-run home run.
• ESPN Chicago wrote about Moises Sierra joining the active roster.
• CSN Chicago says the White Sox are looking for a spark heading into the Crosstown series.
• Da Windy City of FanSided wrote about Sunday's win.

He won't let up about "the party".(long)
|Wed, 05-02-2007 - 7:55pm
Hi all,
My 5.5 y/o ds is obsessed.
|Thu, 05-03-2007 - 10:36am
I had a similar problem with my daughter having a b-day party coming up and I wanted to make sure that her friends from school showed up. I volunteered one day for a school event and I really made myself known to the kids and their parents when they would come to drop off or pick up. It really made a difference, if you can find common ground with mom or dad or make their child happy by spending time with them, the rest should fall into place. You can also see who "Ds" really likes to play with at school and (more importantly) who you would want him to have a play date with. The other thing you might want to try is instead of asking for a play date, make it more specific, Can "Joey" go with "Ds" to Peter Piper Pizza this Saturday and invite the mom and any siblings they might have too. I wouldn't let "D" know that you invited anybody, I would just let him know about the fun time you planned with him and if know one shows up, he will never know. Keep trying eventually you will ask on the right day at the right time and "D" will finally get a play date. The nagging part I think comes with his age. Once he starts having some one on one playdates, I bet he will let you narrow the field down a bit on the party. I would also try to change the topic on him and get him excited about something else, like a movie that is coming out he really wants to see. I hope this helps little bit.

TUESDAY, April 10 (HealthDay News) -- The upcoming income tax
filing deadline might be taxing in more ways than one for
Americans: A new study suggests that fatal crashes jump on Tax Day,
possibly as a result of last-minute filers carelessly rushing to
the post office to mail their returns.
The study's lead author said the research indicates that
"stressful deadlines lead to driver distraction and human
"Almost all of these crashes could have been totally avoided by a small change in driver behavior. An awareness of this risk could lead to better road safety," said Dr. Donald A. Redelmeier, a professor of medicine at the University of Toronto.
But others who study traffic said it's hard to understand what
the findings mean since other possibilities, such as more cars on
the road, rather than lots of people too revved up to pay
attention, could drive up crash statistics on Uncle Sam's big pay
"The problem with announcing that any one day has a greater-than-normal number of traffic crashes is that often, when adjusted for the higher number of travelers, the crash rate isn't actually higher than a typical weekend day," said Tom Vanderbilt, author of the book "Traffic: Why We Drive the Way We Do (and What It Says About Us)."
For the new study, published in the April 11 issue of the
Journal of the American Medical Association, Redelmeier and a colleague examined a database of fatal U.S. traffic accidents from 1980 to 2009. They looked specifically at crashes on the date taxes were due and the same day the week before and the week after.
While the federal government's typical filing deadline is April
15, it falls on Tuesday, April 17, this year.
Although the risk of dying on Tax Day is extremely small, it's a
bit higher than on the other days. The researchers found an average
of 226 fatal accidents on annual tax-due days compared to 213 on
the other days. The increased risk is about 6 percent.
Increased risk was greatest for people younger than 65, the
researchers said.
Redelmeier, who has investigated traffic fatality rates on other
special days, said Tax Day is about as risky on the roads as Super
Bowl Sunday. In 2008, he also reported that fatal crashes are more
likely during polling hours on presidential election days, compared
to other Tuesdays around the same time.
He said he thinks stress is the accelerator here. "It doesn't
just hold on Tax Day but might also hold to other distinctly
stressful times, such as when you're going through a divorce or
something is wrong with your child or you've just lost your job,"
he said.
Chandra Bhat, a professor of transportation engineering at
University of Texas at Austin, raised questions about the study.
For one thing, he said, the study finds that people under the age
of 18 are involved in more fatal crashes on Tax Day. It's not clear
if they're passengers or drivers, he said, adding that if they're
drivers, it's unlikely the crash increase is related to the tax
"Traffic accidents are such relatively rare events that a one-day period of observation may be inadequate to make conclusive observations," Bhat cautioned. "While I appreciate that the analysis design followed by the authors is quite good and that the authors have considered several years in their analysis, I still would be somewhat cautious in drawing conclusions."
Since the study didn't account for factors such as sleep
deprivation, the authors recommend additional research that would
ultimately beef up efforts aimed at prevention.
For now, they said, drivers should be reminded to wear seat
belts, drive the posted speed limit and avoid alcohol on April

In Pope related news, I read The One Trick Rip-Off. I'm fairly new when it comes to Paul Pope's work (I've only read Batman: Year 100 and 100%, both I love a lot), so I muttered a few extra swear words at finding out he did this in his early 20's. It's cool to see his early work. I wish I could read it in b&w but the coloring is really good.

When life gets crazy, bake a pie.
White Peach & Blueberry Pie
- 8 white peaches
- 1/2 cup blueberries
- 1 T. cardamom
- 1 T. cinnamon
- 1 T. sugar
- 1 T. flour
Cut up peaches and combine in bowl with blueberries, cardamom and cinnamon. Set aside.
Pie Crusts:
- 2 1/2 cup flour
- 1/4 sugar
- 3/4 cup cold butter
- 1/3 cup cold water
- 1 tsp. cardamom
- 1 tsp. cloves
Mix flour, sugar, cardamom and cloves together. Place dry mixture into food processor and combine with cold cubes of butter (or use the old cutting method.) Once the butter is thoroughly mixed in with the dry mixture, add the cold water. Knead into a pliable, smooth dough and then form into a ball. Divide ball in half and form each half into a pie crust wider than the diameter of the pie pan.
Once the first pie crust is in the pan, pile the fruit in the middle. Sprinkle with one tablespoon flour and sugar and cover with second crust. Fold edges of first crust over the second crust and push up against the sides of the pan so you can show off your style on the crust. I went for a simple aesthetic; you might want to illustrate the battle of Hogwarts around the sides of yours.
Once you're styled your pie, crack an egg yolk into a cup and combine with a splash of cold water. Mix up and brush lightly over the crust. Sprinkle with sugar and pop in the oven for 15 minutes at 400 and 40 minutes at 350, or until golden brown.
Once done, cool for an hour before instagramming, eating, serving to loved ones or saving for next day's breakfast.
Not to go all Keri Russell on you, but there is a definite magic to making pies that calms me. I'm not even hungry for it when I'm done making it, but I feel emptied out of everything that was previously consuming me. It's a type of meditation. Each recipe changes with the day you create it, with the fruit that you find and the mood that you're in.
Today was filled with meetings, production budgets and shooting schedules and ended with a simple, beautiful new pie recipe.
Actually, I lied. It's actually ending with a Breaking Bad marathon.
There goes the calm I just cultivated. ;)

aspects of both—many see computer programs as involving both authorship and invention. This not only makes it difficult to draw meaningful boundaries between patents and copyright, it also raises the question of whether alternative intellectual property paradigms should be explored. In other countries, the dichotomy between copyright and patents is not so strong, and other intellectual property paradigms, such as utility models and industrial designs, exist and are widely used.
Sui generis approaches are an alternative to existing intellectual property paradigms. Sui generis forms of IPR are unique property rights designed to protect a specific new technology that does not fit easily within existing IPR categories. They have the advantage of specifically recognizing the special issues posed by new technologies and tailoring protection to the specific problem. Moreover, developing a sui generis law allows the problem to be dealt with as a whole, rather than piecemeal in the courts. It can also avoid potential harm to the technology and to the law itself from applying an inappropriate legal framework.
Sui generis approaches have a number of disadvantages, however. They require legislative action, and, as pointed out by Morton David Goldberg in Chapter 14, it can be difficult to design a law that is flexible enough to maintain the desired balances and degree of protection in the face of continuing change in the technology and industrial structure. Moreover, both John Barton (see Chapter 11) and Goldberg note that it may be harder to undo errors in sui generis laws. Another factor weighing against a sui generis approach is the need to negotiate new treaties on emerging technologies for which there is little consensus as to the appropriate form or degree of protection. There is concern that sui generis laws make IPR law more complex, confusing, and uncertain.
The international dimension adds another level of complexity to adapting intellectual property systems to new technology. A key difficulty is trying to achieve international consensus on an IPR approach to new technologies when there is often no consensus within countries on the appropriate approach and when the economic interests of different nations may dictate a different balancing of interests in the IPR law. These seem to be the issues that are holding up agreement on specific IPR rules in the Uruguay Round of the General Agreement on Tariffs and Trade (GATT) negotiations.
Computer programs may provide an example of the difficulties. The

It was a tradition each spring, that wonderfully crazy "The Odd Ball" party at Real Art Ways in Hartford.
So there was some lamenting when RAW executive director Will K. Wilkins announced it would be no more as the non-profit arts entity looked for a new fundraising idea.
As fate would have it however, there will be a "The Odd Ball' this year after all, but at a new time of year and with a new name.
"We're really excited about it," Wilkins said about the Oct. 26 "Odd Ball Halloween" that coincides with what is expected to be a weekend full of wild costumes Halloween parties in the area.
When the announcement was made in April that there would be no ball, Wilkins stated it was time for change because the annual event wasn't growing.
However, moving what will be the 5th Annual 'Odd Ball" to Halloween time, will address that concern.
"It's is a party that has a remarkable amount of creativity in terms of the costumes," said Wilkins, referring to the out-of-the-ordinary costumes worn by guests at previous balls. "Moving it to Halloween will mean that many more people participating. "
