VENTNOR – The Board of Commissioners introduced an ordinance Thursday, Nov. 20 that would offer tax exemptions for certain property owners who make improvements or build anew.
Officials are hoping a tax incentive would spur new construction that complies with new flood elevation standards and help the city improve its FEMA flood insurance rating, which would equate to discounts for residents on the cost of flood insurance.
CAMDEN – A federal court today issued a temporary restraining order to stop the New Jersey Department of Environmental Protection and Army Corps of Engineers shore protection project in Margate.
The order came after Margate filed a legal suit in U.S. District Court to stop the state and Army Corps from building sand dunes on the city's beach.
TRENTON – Department of Environmental Protection Commissioner Bob Martin announced Nov. 20 that Ventnor City would receive a $501,000 grant to restore historic City Hall. The building was one of four in Atlantic County selected for Sandy Disaster Relief Grants for Historic Properties to fund the preservation, stabilization, rehabilitation and repair of New Jersey historic structures that were damaged by the storm.
Other Atlantic County structures awarded grants include Fire Station 3 in Atlantic City, which received $338,289, Fire Station 2 in Atlantic City $205,649 and Gateway Playhouse in Somers Point $102,400.
MARGATE – Local firefighters and EMS workers who routinely arrive at drug overdose calls are now carrying the life-saving antidote, naloxone.
Chief Anthony Tabasso made the announcement at the Nov. 6 Board of Commissioners work session meeting.
MARGATE – City Clerk and Tax Collector Tom Hiltner will resign from both positions Jan. 1 and receive $260,000 payable in installments over the next two years as part of a settlement reached in his whistleblower lawsuit against the city.
Under the agreement, the city will also give Hiltner $12,000 a year for the next eight years for health insurance, and pay $50,000 in attorney fees to Jacobs & Barbone, his attorneys.
MARGATE – Despite differences of opinion regarding the dunes issue, the Board of Commissioners Nov. 6 agreed to uphold the wishes of the voters and proceed with an effort to stop the state and Army Corps of Engineers from building sand dunes on the beach.
Congratulating the advocacy group Margate Citizens Questioning the Beach Project, which lobbied to fight the dunes project, Commissioner Brenda Taube said she would join Commissioner Maury Blumberg and Mayor Michael Becker in support of voters who passed a nonbinding referendum Nov. 4 that asked if they wanted the city to spend up to $200,000 in legal fees to try to stop the NJ Department of Environmental Protection and the Army Corps from proceeding with the project. The unofficial vote count was 1,140 yes, 1,091 no. Provisional ballots are still being counted. Certification by the Atlantic County Clerk is expected Monday afternoon.
VENTNOR – The New Jersey Department of Community Affairs has awarded $230,000 in Post-Sandy Planning Assistance grants to help the city become more resilient to storms.
Mayor Michael Bagnell said the grants will help the city plan for the future after several years of struggling with the aftermath of hurricane Sandy, which flooded the city in October 2012.
Success is 'out there' for 419 AC High School graduates (SLIDE SHOW)
Written by Nanette LoBiondo Galloway Tuesday, June 24, 2014 01:15 pm

|Next >
ATLANTIC CITY – Members of Atlantic City High School's Class of 2014 were encouraged Tuesday, June 24 to get out of their own way to achieve success, whether it be in college, military or the workforce.
Families and friends attended the commencement ceremony held at Boardwalk Hall to support the 419 graduates, some of whom will be attending prestigious Princeton and Harvard universities.
Atlantic City High School Navy ROTC provided escort for faculty and graduates.
Salutatorian Steve Thai told his classmates that the last four years was "not all flowers and chocolate," but hard. However, being part of the Atlantic City melting pot is an experience that will stay with him throughout life.
"It has truly been a rollercoaster ride mixed with highs and lows. I have met driven teachers who have pushed me to my limit, tested my patience, and ultimately looked out for my best interest. I have befriended classmates who left their imprints on me," Thai said.
"My classmates have exposed me to different religions and cultures of the world. Just congregating with them was a learning experience in itself," he said.
Offering advice, he quoted author Suzan-Lori Parks, who said, "You can spend your life tripping on yourself. You can also spend your spend your life tripping yourself up. Get out of your own way."
He encouraged graduates. "Success is out there for anyone who reaches for it."
Valedictorian Erin Gallagher said she wanted to stand out with her speech, so she Googled "awesome valedictorian speeches." But when she read the template that had lots of "insert name here" blanks, she realized they were filled with clichés and platitudes. To stand out, she would have to do it on her own.
She offered thanks to parents who offered support, the "brave, patient teaching staff" for their encouragement, and Principal John DeStefano "whose first year on the job was a resounding success."
She offered classmates some words of encouragement for whatever path they take.
"Let's face it, we can't all win the Nobel Peace Prize. If you want, you can strive to be a leader, you can try to change the world, win awards, get your name in the history books. But success isn't measured by how many people know your name. Success is measured by how happy you are with your life and what you've accomplished.
"When you leave this building, do what makes you happy. Because no matter what you're doing, as long as you're living every day with a smile on your face, you're doing it right."
To garner a laugh from the audience, she mentioned a long list of people who gave her $1 to mention their names in her speech, including, "the guy at the next table at Applebee's" and "Rachel Kessler," who was mentioned five times.
Principal DeStefano highlighted the students' collective achievements this year, including receiving more than $1 million in scholarships to continue their education, winning state and Cape Atlantic League athletic championships, showcasing their talents in the spring musical and arts festival, participating in numerous academic challenges, building a solar-powered physics house and escorting Miss America contestants in the Show Us Your Shoes parade.
He told the graduates they obtained everything they need to build a well-rounded life.
"Be true to your belief systems. It takes discipline to make good choices. Choose to be happy; choose to serve others and choose to have a high level of self-esteem," DeStefano said.

The Acuvue Oasys lenses are the most comfortable lenses I've tried. I have been wearing contacts for a little over a year now, so I'm fairly new to the game. My eye doctor started me off with Air Optix Aqua, and after going through a box of those lenses, I was pretty fed up. They were thick, dried up easily and gave me irritation when I was on the computer. I have a desk job, so while I'm at work, I am ALWAYS on the computer. I went back to my doctor and then tried the Biofinity lenses. Definitely an improvement, but still gave me a horrible, dry gritty feeling, and the clarity was AWFUL! I had to squint while they were in, which defeats the whole point of contacts! Then I tried the CooperVision ProClear Compatibles. These were the best out of the bunch, and my vision was actually better than 20/20 with these, but they would still get very dry on me. I was reluctant to try the Oasys because they are a 2-week replacement lens but they are great. The clarity is good, it feels like NOTHING going in your eye which is amazing, as the Air Optix had a big "edge" you could feel. I wear these ALL day (16+ hours) and have occasionally worn them overnight with no issues. GREAT lenses and definitely the best I've tried so far!

I have worn contacts since I was 17, 40+ years. Progressed from "hard" hourly lenses thru many generations of softer and extended wear lenses. Have used Oasys now for 24 months or so. First order, lenses were 95% correct and were comfortable for 2 weeks of extended wear. Maybe only removed overnight 2 or 3 times in two weeks. ALWAYS rinsed and rubbed every morning. Problem began with second order... every 5th lenses was suctioned onto the foil lid when opening packet. After peeling lenses off foil, it was either deformed or "nicked". Chuck em! The 3rd order, which I am just now finishing were only about 66% usable...every 3rd lense was damaged as noted above. I phoned and emailed Clearly Contacts and they said there is no warranty available from them. Only offered me small credit on next order. I will NOT order this brand again. Also, I sense a big resistance to C/C honoring their $ adjustment when I order tomorrow. If they welch, I'll shop elsewhere... At only 66% usable, their product is no longer a bargain. Big-Box will easily match their price.

Contact lense Performance and uses

About Me Single Lens User
Need only 1 lens so usually change weekly. Very comfortable.
Not a good choice
By Me
from ontario
These are hard to put in and they fall outthey are really thin and rip easily
Bottom Line No, I would not recommend this to a friend
By Tasha
from Montreal
I have been wearing glasses since grade 3! And now that I'm in my second year at university I realized that I needed a change, so either switch to contacts or get laser eye surgery. The latter was too expensive so I decided to get contacts. So long story short, these bi weekly contacts are just amazing. My eyes are very and i mean very sensitive and tend to get irritated easily, but not with these. I usually wear them for 9-10 hours a day and towards the end of the day they do get a little dry and my eyes turn a bit red but i use eyedrops and then its fine! honestly i would recommend them, I never thought it was going to be this easy! Also delivery time was just excellent!

About Me Fulltime, Middleage
I use them most days of the week for now, as I have misplaced my glasses in a lake! They do the job for me (though I need reading glasses due to 'middle age'. They feel very good in for many hours, but, come evening I have to admit it feels good to take them out and switch to glasses.

Amazing delivery. Product arrived in 2 days. Price was great as well.
I won't order again
By Alongwaydown
from Ontario
I gave these contacts a try after using monthly wear contacts for years since I sometimes work in environments that can be hard on contacts and I disliked throwing them away 'early'. Of the six contacts in the box, one was already ripped when I opened the package, I find them uncomfortable and they don't sit as well as the contacts I have been wearing in the past. May work for others but I won't be ordering them again.

"I absolutely loved this invitation. I was able to customize all of the information to fit my needs. The paper it was printed on was beautiful. I am disappointed in the envelopes that were sent with them. I ordered square envelopes, which is a must for this invitation, and got rectangular envelopes. Beautiful invitations!!"
"I waited until the last minute to order these invites. They shipped very quickly and I loved the outcome. Very cute and fun. I had a hard time finding just a simple cute card for a baby girl shower and this totally fit the bill. Loved it!"
"This card is even nicer in person. The colors are vibrant, and this invite is absolutely perfect for a gender neutral baby shower!"
"These invitations are absolutely lovely. Dainty is the perfect description. The lavender is a beautiful color and I'm excited to send these out for our Baby Shower."
"I fell in love with this design when searching for woodland-inspired invitations for my sister's baby shower. Just so darling! Initially I had decided to go with the "smoke" version of the design because I feared that the white parts of the design would not show up as well on the pale pink (the website the pale pink card's details seem harder to see). BUT, I took a chance and went with the pink, and I'm so happy I did. BEAUTIFUL results! The images and text show up perfectly. The cards are nice and thick, the printing great quality. AND, the delivery was so fast, even though I chose standard shipping! I ordered these on the 18th, they were shipped on the 19th, and I received them on the 21st! Everything about this order was impressive!"

Dodge Charger 1968 blown hemi
this is Nick suckow's car in September 2008 before it was stolen. If you
have any information about this dodge charger please let me know.
http://www.weau.com/home/headlines/33732019.html# Back in 1984,
high-schooler Nick Suckow bought himself a '68 Dodge Charger. He was gonna
fix it up and roar down the road. Nick was born a gearhead. A hot rod. From
the first time he drove, he drove hard. The redline was always at hand.
When he joined the Army out of high school and shipped to Germany he got
hooked on the autobahn, where you could ease over to the left lane, stomp
the foot-feed flat, and shoot, they just let you go. "Fast," Nick likes to
say, "isn't the same as reckless." All that racing around, and then life
served up a grim little joke: The day Nick Suckow wrecked - the day his
life changed forever, the last day he ever stood on his own two feet - he
was going 35 miles per hour with his seatbelt on. He'd been married two
weeks. He and his wife were on their way home from their Wisconsin
honeymoon, making the run back to Texas in Nick's Gran Prix. They were
towing a rusted-out Ford Bronco - Nick always had his eye out for a cheap
beater, and he had found one up north. On a rough stretch of road Nick
crawled in the Bronco to keep it straight. The front tire hooked a pothole.
The tie rod snapped. The seat belt broke. He landed in the ditch. The
Bronco landed on his neck. Nick says he remembers the sun in his eyes. Then
the darkness closing in. A lot of years, then. Hospitals. Home. Hospitals.
The marriage ended. Back to Wisconsin. Rehab, and more hospitals. The speed
demon, not going anywhere fast. But eventually he had them drag that
Charger out. Arranged to get it in the shop. Whenever he had a little
money, he'd get some work done. "They whittled away at it," he says. "I
told my mom, if I die, dump my ashes in the fuel tank, and I'll go down the
drag strip one last time." Seventeen years. Seventeen years of learning how
to live from the neck up. Seventeen years of whittling. Hed show you the
latest pictures - a quarter panel here, a shot of primer there, a couple
tires. He'd get down to the shop, supervise in person when he could. He
couldn't run the wrenches, but he could run the show. He'd sneak out for a
little speed fix sometimes - once a paraplegic friend strapped Nick's chair
to a motorcycle sidecar and they blew down the road, one good pair of arms
between'em. Nick says it was good to feel the wind on his face. On a sunny
day in October of 2006, Nick Suckow's pals helped him slide from one set of
wheels into another. They strapped him in the passenger side, and you could
see the anticipation on his face, even behind the mirrored shades. The car
cruised out of the lot, and then picked up speed, the blower making a Mad
Max whine as the wheels warmed to the road. After a nice easy ride, the
Charger pulled to a stop on an isolated little stretch of blacktop. There
was a quiet moment, before the driver wound that 426 fuel-injected blown
Hemi up tight. Then Nick Suckow gave the nod and went fishtailing down the
blacktop on a journey that had never really ended.

2. Sew your skirt panels together. Denim frays like crazy (I learned this the hard way) so make sure you serge your seams or stitch over them with a zig zag stitch.
3. Hem the bottom
4. Cut the waistband of the jeans into a front piece that's 1/2 your tot's waist measurement + 1″ for seam allowances. Cut a back piece that's about 3″ longer. Cut a piece of elastic that's a little less than half your waist measurement. Slide it through the back waistband and tack it down at each end. Now you have a gathered back for easy on and off
5.Slide your skirt into the front and back waistband, overlapping at the side seams and tucking in your raw edges. Sew in place along the bottom edge

Firmly tannic on the finish, yet the ripe purity pushes through. True to form Monte Bello in a classic style."
Reviewed by: Wine Spectator - 95pts
Prices, promotions and availability may vary by store and online.
2012 Justin Cabernet Sauvignon
"Clear with a medium ruby, purple core and light violet rim. With medium-plus intensity, it's a beautifully classic cabernet sauvignon mix of ripe blackcurrant, black and red cherries with vanilla, cedar, sweet tobacco, and licorice accents. Medium-plus body with dark fruit of cassis and black cherry on the entry. Barrel notes of vanilla and cedar with savory black tea and herbal notes come through on the mid-palate. The finish is long and clean with lingering bright cherry and spice of sassafras and licorice, surrounded by smooth firm to medium tannins. A traditionally styled cabernet sauvignon in all respects – beautifully balanced and food friendly, the 2012 Justin Cabernet Sauvignon is a good match to burgers and steak right off the grill."

2009 Mount Eden Cabernet Sauvignon Estate
"Deep ruby. Powerful, smoke-accented cherry and blackcurrant aromas are energized by zesty minerals, picking up pipe tobacco, cedar and dried rose nuances with air. Fleshy and broad but focused too, offering intense dark berry flavors and a suggestion of bitter chocolate. A sweet vanilla quality rounds out the impressively persistent finish, which shows superb clarity and solid but well-knit tannins."

2011 Ridge Monte Bello
"The 2011 Monte Bello (87% Cabernet Sauvignon, 9% Merlot, 4% Cabernet Franc) emerges from the glass with tobacco, grilled herbs, smoke, incense and plums meld together in this soft, beautifully textured Monte Bello. The 2011 is a wine of exceptional textural finesse. The 100% new oak is totally integrated. In 2011, Ridge used a total of 18 of a possible 24 lots for the final blend. The presence of 88% Cabernet Sauvignon is the highest since the 1980s. I expect the 2011 to be a relatively early drinking Monte Bello, but time will be the judge."

Jidu is a cute Asian babe who models part time. She is a real beach bunny who enjoys the outdoors especially when she is naked! She has a nice set of tits and a hot body that anyone would want to throw a fuck into. But she only has eyes for her electric fuck buddy! I have seen her in commercials on the tv once in a while too. She is just beginning to get a web site started with her adventures in modeling on it. When it is done it should be really great!

Google's Brin and wife plop half-million into Wikipedia's hat
The Wikimedia Foundation, the non-profit publisher of Wikipedia and its affiliate sites, has received a $500,000 grant from the Brin Wojcicki Foundation, a philanthropic organization set up by Google cofounder Sergey Brin and his wife Anne Wojcicki, cofounder of "personal genetic information" website 23andMe. "This grant is an …
They owe them at least that much...
Like many I use Google for Wikipedia searches, almost never go directly.
Google must have made much more than $500,000 from ads on results linked to Wikipedia.
I bet I gave them more
Proportionately. $20!
Errors in this coverage
Myslewski seems to have made a few mistakes with this article. First, Jimmy Wales didn't "found" Wikipedia. He's not the "founder". Wales founded a mistake of an encyclopedia project called Nupedia. Dr. Larry Sanger pushed to Wales the idea of an openly-edited wiki to help save Nupedia. Sanger named this new project Wikipedia. Sanger issued the first public call for participation on Wikipedia. And Sanger worked for the first year of Wikipedia's existence, hammering out policies and guidelines that are still in place today.
Second, a donation to the Wikimedia Foundation, though it may feel good, is mostly going toward waste. According to the Form 990 filed by the WMF to the IRS, only 46 cents of every donated dollar actually get targeted to the program services that fulfill the non-profit's mission. Other legitimate educational non-profits strive for ratios of 75%, 80%, 85%, or higher. This donation is not really to be applauded until the WMF can demonstrate that they're going to get serious about not wasting everyone's money any more.
@Gregory Kohs
Looks like every one of your 21 posts under this name are anti-wiki. Got a little chip on shoulder there I suspect, or perhaps just a publicity hound. Doubt you've ever done anything of equivalent value to mankind. Makes me doubt your impartiality, so the form 990 is to be found here <http://wikimediafoundation.org/wiki/File:WMF_2009_2010_Form_990.pdf>, perhaps you could break it down for us so we understand where the 46 cents per dollar claim come from.
Not that I don't trust you or anything, just that I don't actually ... you know... trust...
Anyway, please let us know.

So I guess what AC @ 19th November 2011 23:32 GMT is saying is "citation needed" :o)

The world would be hit like this by Asteroid 2012 Da14 At last NASA calculates out that the near-Earth asteroid 2012 DA14 won't hit our home planet in 2013 as it speculated before. NASA researchers say. The asteroid, which astronomers estimate to be about 150 feet (45 meters) across, will give Earth an uncomfortably close shave on Feb. 15, 2013, coming nearer to our planet than the satellites we've lofted to geostationary orbit. But 2012 DA14 poses no real impact danger on that pass, according to NASA scientists. "Its orbit about the sun can bring it no closer to the Earth's surface than 3.2 Earth radii on February 15, 2013," researchers with the Near-Earth Object Program Office, at NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory in Pasadena, Calif., wrote in an update today (March 6). One Earth radius is roughly 3,963 miles (6,378 kilometers) at the equator. So by this reckoning, the nearest 2012 DA14 can get to us next year is 12,680 miles (20,406 km). For comparison, satellites in geosynchronous orbit circle our planet ...
OH God! we are safe: The Mid-Size Asteroid Won't hit the Earth

"DIRECT FUNDING" for the Delegate Process!Submitted by Ralph Waldo on Sun, 03/30/2008 - 08:05
While the efforts of the RP volunteers far exceed those of any other campaign, the "Delegate Process" could be even more effective if it had sufficient and direct funding.
While some volunteers do not need outside funding, the reality is, sufficient funding could enable more people to be more effective in the various tasks that require both time and money.
Hiring part-time campaign workers and providing expense money to perform these organizing activities is both legal, smart and an efficient use of campaign resources.
(These funds could come from the official HQs or a separate and independent pool of money)!
Using this approach would also help RP supporters
convert delegates from other camps as is now beginning to be done with McCain delegates. This is where HQ should be putting their funds!
It's the Ground Game Baby, It's the Ground Game!!!
This idea is one that could work.
Ron's campaign could have done more. He should have just hired the grassroots. We would have worked much harder for a lot less. $350 a week and I could have put an easy 40 hrs into spreading freedom. I did what I did at my own "free" time and expense but I have to work a job... my time was limited and so were my funds.
Mathew 5:9 Blessed are the peacemakers: for they shall be called the children of God.
I agree
!Many RP people are fired up and would love to be able to put more time into the process but can't because of their financial and family responsibilities.
Hiring campaign workers for one or two months to organize, recruit and educate would be a much more effective use of the funds, and there is still the possiblity of converting the other delegates.
$33 million divided by 50 states = $666,000 per!!!
Follow-up on my post below..
I was thinking about this further..
Isn't that what the campaign was supposed to be paid for? I don't know but I would think you would do more then sit around an office all day..
I would think you would do everything in your power to give speeches, call radio shows, write local newspapers..
You are paid by the campaign to get out the message..
Just my opinion...
Mathew 5:9 Blessed are the peacemakers: for they shall be called the children of God.
My feelings exactly!
Just imagine if that $33 million had been used to directly fund the delegate process - It would have changed the world.
Paid volunteers?
Hmmm. All this sounds quite good. I hope something can be put together to establish a working (yet decentralized) organization that is not only geared to and focused on success but is able to achieve success. Some thoughts...
If I were to participate (speaking for myself of course) I would not under any circumstances be a part of being an "employee" that is susceptible to all the federale, state and local interferences of payroll taxes, assorted deductions, statutory controls and manipulations, etc. Instead I would be interested in a "private contractor" or "joint venture" type of arrangement. The "employer / employee" relationship has been taken over by the socialists, nazis and communists among us as though they were ordained by their unGod to control everybody. Besides that a private agreement between aware sovereigns is the Paul thing to do.
I'm not really interested in doing this as I have my hands already full with all the things I'm currently doing which includes waking up our local and neighboring communities, operating my business, etc. Others are perhaps busy in a similar manner. They may not want to drop their existing lives to become full-time politicos. So perhaps a "Care Package" could be tailored for each meetup interested in or needing assistance. You (DWB) would need a small staff to get this up and running properly. Monthly feed-back would be a requirement and qualification for each new monthly "Care Package". Prove the money (by report and receipts) was used as stipulated or there is new check in the mail.
Things we have been doing that could be duplicated elsewhere.
1) Small town newspaper ads are inexpensive. We can place a quarter page ad in our local weekly paper that reaches 10,000 readers for about $290. The ad is out there for a week. Our tiny meetup placed some ads but it severely taxed our resources. We could use some help on that.
2) Distribute the Russo AFTF dvd. Our meetup has distributed around 500 copies in our community and surrounding communities. I feel we need to give away another 1,500 before a real impact moves this place back to freedom thinking; i.e., 10-20% saturation. We also need a few large yard signs.
3) We have begun weekly classes on the Constitution. This effort needs some funding for books and study guides available from
4) Educating ourselves as to the voting/delegate process already in place across America. It has been a revelation how little was known by us about this system.
5) Grooming and training awake people to run for local and state offices.
These efforts appear to be working well for us though they could work a lot better if adequately funded. I feel they could represent a program of sorts that other meetups could adapt to their local conditions.
A 1099 contract is the way to go.
The way to simplify the process would be to do it as a 1099 contract worker; that way the recipient is responsible for any taxes. However, taxes are not due until a certain minimum is reached.
I think a pilot project (or projects) would be the way to test it.
My thoughts lately
I have been considering this exact idea for a few weeks and I'm looking for ideas so that I don't create a situation where funds are just wasted.
Over the last few months I've been watching volunteers in our local area who seem to get a lot of work done with relatively few resources.
I have the idea that if these people had a salary they could be freed-up from the constraints of a job and devote more time to campaign activities.
One idea would be to form a corporation, hire the individual as a marketing representative or even an educational consultant.
I have a relationship with a PPO, which is a company that administers the payroll and benefit packages of people employed by small businesses for a fee. So for instance if I hired a few individuals to work as campaign workers, this PPO would take care of paying salaries, employment taxes and medical insurance. They would then charge my business account for those expenses plus a fee for their services.
My question is;
What areas would I want the paid staff to focus on for best results?
"PunJab! Bring me my checkbook!"
"Josie the Outlaw"
That sounds like an excellent idea and methodology!
I would say it varies with each situation and would best be determined by the local RP supporters. You could set it up similiar to grant requests but make it as simple as possible. It could be done in 3 steps:
1. The RP agent emails a basic description of their situation and how funds would help.
2. This is followed up with a phone conference.
3. Funds are dispursed in increments with a report on what each allocation has produced.
Post it on the Daily Paul and away we go!
Question for DWB...
Can you be reached by email?
These people can spend their time attending every meeting possible and going to churches to speak, call in radio shows, high schools, colleges..
Also, writing to local newspapers and such.
I would love to do more of this stuff, and I am sure most RP supporters would, but the reality is that we work 50-60 hr weeks, have children and life (chaotic as it is) to deal with. We do what we can, but the idea of being "freed-up" to focus full-time?? Wow.
Something like this would be amazing, but of course they would have to be screened extensively. Not everyone speaks well, writes well, or can organize appropriately.
Mathew 5:9 Blessed are the peacemakers: for they shall be called the children of God.
I think you are exactly right
Having some funds to work with would free up a lot more people for RP work and would be money well spent.

"Oh my god," one of the show's lead characters exclaims, "I'm a Republi-cunt." Breitbart TV explains that context, which in no way mitigates the insult: While HBO's Award winning "True Blood" a popular vampire drama has had a long-running narrative with the bad guys cast as southern conservative politicians, last night's episode took it a step farther, calling Ted Cruz supporters a**holes and offensively referring to conservative woman in eveningware as "republic**ts" When two of the main characters, vampires Eric Northman and Pam De Beaufort, are planning to crash a fictional fundraiser for Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX) held at the George W. Bush Presidential Center in Dallas they are warned "They only let in a**holes." While dressing for the event in cowboy hats and Western evening attire Pam De Beaufort says "Oh my God I'm a republic**t" And finally De Beaufort enters the gala proclaiming "Of all the horrible things I've seen in the last hundred years this could be the most disturbing."

In need of some kick-butt appetizers!
- e
- Ed Buckley Mar 4, 2009 05:45 AM
Planning a very special house party and would really like some over the top appetizers. Any suggestions?
Smoked Salmon Cheesecake by Emeril Lagasse
Emeril's Lobster Cheesecake
re: Antilope
I love the look of Emeril's Lobster Cheese I wonder if you could do it as mini cheesecakes rather than serve it in wedges?
re: maplesugar
Probably, I don't like a big cake or quiche, people are less likely to eat it. It is also extremely rich, I tried it. I couldn't eat it. Made it for a small party get together. No offense, a great recipe, just way to rich for me and 2 of my friends.
I like to My filet mignon bites on a baguette with a horseradish cream fresh arugula and a olive tapenade. Toast the baguette, rub with garlic then top with a olive tapenade, some fresh arugula and a nice thin slice of filet mignon, marinaded in a simple garlic marinade and then topped with a horshradish cream.
I make lobster cones, just using puff pasty and making small cones when they are baked and then make a lobster salad with fresh dill a a yogurt mayo, add some thin sliced cucumber, red pepper and jicama stuff the cones.
These are not fancy, but popular. I get large grape tomatoes, cut a hole in the top and stuff with a large black olive, then I use a herbed cheese (buy or make your own either or) and stuff the olive. They are fun and pretty and they love to gobble them up. I do soak both the tomatoes and olives in vodka prior to stuffing.
Shrimp and citrus skewers, simple but great flavor, marinade the shrimp in a little teriyaki, ginger, orange and grapefruit juice, honey and red pepper, then skewer just a couple of shrimp and some slices or orange and grapefruit. Once grilled I stick them in a grapefruit. Cut a slice off the bottom so it sits well and put on a platter, but several in the grapefruit for almost a centerpiece then the rest around. I make a honey lime cilantro and sour cream dip. Simple but it accents the shrimp.
Small potato and spinach cakes with roasted red peppers served with a spicy mustard and chili sauce.
For munchies I love pancetta wrapped bread sticks (very plain, but people love to nibble on them. I use the mini bread sticks.
Ok, cabbage, pork, cranberries and apples, all thin sliced and some pecans rolled up in puff pastry and then surved with a greek yogurt, honey sauce with some nutmeg and cardomon. Make one long roll and then cut into bites.
Cranberry, turkey and goat cheese fried ravioli and any baked ravioli is great. I make one with salmon, dill gruyere and then serve with a lime lemon sauce.
I love baby stuffed white potatoes, hollow out and stuff with everything from crab, chicken, cheese, vegetables and caviar
I also love to thin slice my smoked salmon paper thin and roll with a simple marscapone filling, some diced olives and scallions paper thin. They aren't fancy but just pretty and very well liked. I also do the same version with tuna, scallions, thin sliced jicama and carrots and an asian sauce.
I like finger food rather than forks. These are some of my favorites, some are easy ... some more difficult. I have found with most parties, since I cater a lot that sometimes it is beneficial to serve things NOT to different, but it depends on you friends attending. You know best with your friends. I have some very adventurous, and some not and the same with some of the parties I cater, so I try to go inbetween.
re: kchurchill5
Can I come to one of your parties?
re: jcattles
Sure, FL, right now 75 and sunny!! Give me a days notice :)
re: kchurchill5
All of your ideas sound awesome! Thanks for sharing!
re: kchurchill5
Thanks for the fantastic ideas! Problem is, they all sound sooo good, the lobster, the tomatoes, and the filet are sure to be their! Thanks again, and you are always welcome.
re: phantomdoc
I do the same, but with goat cheese instead of bleu. One of my favorites!
The Kilted Cook's signature Appetizer:
Basil-Mango Shrimp
1 Mango
12 leaves fresh basil
1-2 lbs shrimp.
1-2 Tbsp Cajun/Creole spice blend, Mesxican spice, Chile Powder, etc
Peel and pit the mango and toss the meat in a blender with the chopped up Basil. Whirrrr until you get a thick puree. Chill.
Toss the shrimp with the spice and saute with a splash of EVOO until cooked just right. Chill.
Shrimp Cocktail - put the sauce in margarita glasses and hook a half dosen shrimp around the rim.
Shrimp "Shooter" - put the sauce in shot glasses and put a single shrimp on top.
Shrimp To Dip. Put the shreimp on a platter with a serving bowl of the dip and an empty for shells.
Shrimp Salad - Lay down a bed of Mesclun or micro greens, add a few shrimp and spoon the sauce over.
re: KiltedCook
You can't go wrong with shrimp!
Smoked trout salad in endive leaves
Crostini with seared skirt steak and chimichurri
Smoked salmon-horseradish mousse on pumpernickel rounds
Piquillo peppers stuffed with white anchovies and goat cheese
Chicken tikka masala drumettes
Corn blinis black bean salsa and carnitas
One of my new favorites is small skewers with cheese tortellini, cherry tomatoes, & sugar snap peas marinated for a couple of hours in a Champagne Vinaigrette. The colors are beautiful and it's an easy make-ahead dish that got plenty of oohhs.
re: chowser
They are always a fave. I love them as well
Baguettes with an olive tapenade (I know I already used it but it is good) smoked salmon and a creamy dill sour cream, Easy and quick. Most of mine other than the grilled skewers and pancetta bread sticks are made ahead.are made ahead. I like to do as much before.
Artichoke mixed with garlic and carmelized onion on a baguette with some parm cheese and fontina melted as amazing or just simple marinated artichokes, add some diced olives and top a baguette, top with a roasted romato slice. Make the tomatoes the day ahead same with the artichoke sauce.
Bacon wrapped filet bites, Single filet and chicken bites wrapped in bacon and then baked and then served with a mustard dip and a horsradish dip or a spicy chipolte dip or an asian dip. Your choice. Simple tooth pick in each, very simple. I do the same with grouper bites, or cod or halibut, Make with a coconut and panko crust and then saute, put a tooth pick in and serve with a apricot, ginger and soy dipping sauce. Easy and quick.
re: chowser
Thanks, sounds like a keeper to me!
re: Ed Buckley
Use milk jalapeno, most of my guests don't like spice, I do however. Always good and a favorite.
Stuffed jalapenos. Remove seeds and ribs, cut in half and stuff with cream cheese, proscuitto, chives and cheddar, just a little of each. Stuff and wrap with pancetta and then bake 20 minutes at 350. Great appetisers. Just check with guests for hot stuff. as all. I love the shrimp dish, my favorite by far.
re: chowser
Mmmm, I love these too.
spicy tuna sashimis cut in bite sized cubes, arrange them neatly with pretty picks. Quick, easy and realitively healthier than all the puffy pastries.
This is a lot of work but i've baked my own mini slider buns to 1-1.25 diameter and had spiced lamb sliders topped with a slice roasted beets, aoli/ olive tapenade and pretty microgreens, held together with a longer skewer (found in asian markets). it was a huge hit. The guys loved it (they are always whining about hunger). Alternatively, you can do tempeh or cook up some veggie burger patties.
i'd love to do a linguini eaten out of a crab shell on my next event.
it's a stable for us but braise or roast some short ribs in some spicy and sweet combo., debone them and serve in chunks on toasted brioche or something. mm..
re: jeniyo
Interesting idea the crab shell, do you mind if I borrow that? Also, love the thought of short ribs on brioche, sounds like a hit! Thanks so much.
I love sliders, I did a party with quality beef, sun seafood crab and shrimp sliders and then turkey.
Offer a bar a ingredients, kids loves them, so do adults, lots of sweet potato fries and some zuchinni chips and appetizers, Offer all the toppings. It is a lot of fun and even great for adults equally. A turkey slider with a little spice, some avacado and a chipolte mayo is great with fresh arugula. Kids can still eat them with lettuce and tomato, Grilled mushroom and onions for the beef and the seafood, fresh spinach tomato and a herbed vinaigrette. Even a veggie or a lamb burger with roasted romatoes and spring greens, endless possibilities. Don't worry about buns, I either have my regular grocer which most will make them now a days for minimal cost or I use just small dinner rolls. Never had a complaint.. They are really a lot of fun. Like I said appealing to both teenagers and adults. Other than just the end cooking, everything made ahead. Easy entertaining, maybe some pastas on the side, some fun appetizers and relax and enjoy. Maybe some fruit kabobs for desert and even maybe a grilled pasta salad, again made ahead. I did this party and everyone loved it.
Anyways, FYI
I like crostini with mushrooms and anything involving smoked salmon or bacon, preferably caramelized.
Mini Reubens:
I ask the baker or grocery store, mine will make it for me a thin almost a baquette sized pumpernickle You can cut the wholes slices in circles or something fancy it you want. I like the baguette size. I just slice and lightly toast. Add some thousand (fresh home made if you can), sauerkraut that was lightly sauteed with some red onions. topped with corned beef and then of course swiss cheese. Mini reubens. Really good and fun.
I chop shrimp (un cooked), some scallions, a dash of chili sauce, parsley and a little honey and orange juice. Mix well, add a few dried bread crumbs and mix. I roll out pieces of proscuitto and spread the mix out on the piece of ham and wrap tight, secure with a tooth pick. Bake 15 minutes at 400. They will be lightly brown and the shrimp cooked. I serve with a creamy melted gruyere cheese flavored with a little orange zest, orange juice and honey and red pepper flakes. Really good. These are fine at room temp, but the cheese should be warm. Heat up and the cheese stays warm for quite a while. Different easy and bit size pieces.

re: alwayscooking
Absolutely, the chicken and shrimp jambalaya croquettes sound fantastic! And if it is not too much trouble, the mini pork & bok choy potstickers sound great as well. Thank you.
re: alwayscooking
1/2 pound fine chopped lean pork
1/2 pound fine chopped bok choy
3 water fine chopped chestnuts
2 slices grated ginger
1 tablespoon oyster sauce
2 teaspoons soy sauce
1 tablespoon mirin
1 teaspoon granulated sugar
1/2 teaspoon sesame oil
Freshly ground white pepper
Wonton wrappers - cut down by 1/3 (app size)
Combine ingredients. Put some of the mixture in a small bowl, nuke, taste, and adjust flavors. Fill wontons into potsticker form. Use immediately or freeze. Cook as with any potsticker - brown bottoms in peanut oil, add water to cover the bottom of the pan, cover, steam for a few minutes, uncover and boil off the remaining liquid. Serve with dipping sauce.
Any potsticker recipe would work - they just need to be bit-sized for apps. You can make them yourself or some restaurants will make them for you.
1 1/2 c long grain rice
1 1/2 c low -sodium chicken broth
1 (14.5 oz) can tomatoes diced
2 t Veg oil
1 lb shrimp (31 - 40 per pound) diced (save the shells)
1 C bottled clam juice
8 oz andouille sauage diced
4 bone-in chicken thighs diced
2 T parsley
1/2 t fresh thyme leaves
1 med red pepper diced
1 celery rib diced
5 med garlic cloves minced
1 med onion diced
2 bay leaves
1 t salt
Unlike a trad Jambalaya, everything needs to be small because each of the ingredients need to end up in the end product.
Make the jambalaya: Saute the onion, celery, red pepper until soft - add the sausage and brown. In a separate pot, simmer the chicken stock with the shrimp shells and chicken bones. Add the rice and brown in the pot. Add the herbs and garlic. Then add tomatoes, some of its juice and the clam juice. Add 3/4 of the stock and stir. Watch as the rice cooks and add more stock when necessary - the end texture needs to be rather dry since it needs to hold together. When barely done, add the shrimp and finish. Let cool.
Croquettes - form mixture into balls (use bread crumbs if too moist. Roll in flour or breadcrumbs and fry. Service with a dipping sauce like roumalade.
re: alwayscooking
these were a huge hit at our xmas party. I did them exactly like the recipe as well I stuffed some with goat cheese, and used chipotle instead of paprika on some. so fast, so delish! get as big of shrimp as your budget allows, do not over cook! they only take about 4 mins.
