Die-hard bug bytes Linux kernel for second time
The Linux kernel has been purged of a bug that gave root access to untrusted users – again. The vulnerability in a component of the operating system that translates values from 64 bits to 32 bits (and vice versa) was fixed once before – in 2007 with the release of version 126.96.36.199. But several months later, developers …
** Sigh **
This is what happens when you develop an operating system that purports to work "the same" across multiple architectures: It doesn't.
By looking at the code for both the bug and the exploit, they each appear to be heavily x86-32/x86-64 dependent.
I would venture that there is a high degree of probability that this bug/exploit combination does not exist, for example, in versions of the Linux kernel developed and compiled for IBM's midrange (AS/400 / System i / System p) and mainframe (S/390 / System z) iron, in versions of the kernel developed to work on Cell-based parallel processing systems, or in versions compiled against SPARC machines.
This leads me to believe that it is perhaps the x86-32/x86-64 architecture that is at fault, at some lower level, for not properly securing access to 32-bit facilities provided by 64-bit processors. This kind of bug could **conceivably** be used to compromise Linux-based x86 hypervisors, by allowing an intruder to context-switch out of the virtual machine and into the host OS.
Granted, the fact that a regression of this magnitude was re-introduced into the Linux kernel is regrettable, but it isn't difficult to understand how such a mistake can be made, given the kernel's rather heterogeneous target audience. No one person, or group of persons, can be an expert on all of the different processor architectures supported by the Linux kernel.
No frickin title
"This leads me to believe that it is perhaps the x86-32/x86-64 architecture that is at fault, at some lower level, for not properly securing access to 32-bit facilities provided by 64-bit processors".
I have a different suspicion, having just written (with some difficulty) a device driver that runs on i686("x86_32")/PAE. It turns out that, on x86, a significant portion of the driver core was written specifically on the x86_64 branch, completely separately from mainline x86. It wasn't back-ported, and x86_32 has significant problems, particularly if you're on PAE. This is made much worse by the fact that the 'documentation' and the relevant book are several years old, and talk extensively about features which the reader assumes will exist on any current kernel, but which in fact didn't work on the most common port at the time, and still don't.
In short, I'd be surprised if the processor is the problem here. Linux is my preferred OS, but it's obvious that there are significant management failings in the kernel development.
You're assuming that IBM/SunOracle by default would be "safe" by virtue of being different, this is an argument from obscurity, in reality the is more scruitiny of x86/x64 because of the availability and number of installations so issues are more likely to be found, these less common architectures aren't somehow magic. I would concur that this particular bug/exploit/weakness probably doesn't exist (byte order might, for example affect it), but that doesn't mean there isn't something unique to these architectures that x86 doesn't have.
The "heterogeneous target" excuse is also faulty, for example, the 10 year old bug in SPARC Solaris that allowed direct root login using telnet was re-introduced into Solaris 10, OK telnet is old hat and probably not active on most Solaris 10 installs, but it's just a well publicised example.
Being different
> You're assuming that IBM/SunOracle by default would be "safe" by virtue of being different...
In this case, yes. Given an examination of the code, there seem to be a considerable number of explicit references to x86-32-specific and x86-64-specific registers and features (%rax, %eax, %ecx, %edx, %rsp, etc.), which would obviously not exist on POWER or SPARC architecture CPUs.
> The "heterogeneous target" excuse is also faulty, for example, the 10 year old bug in SPARC Solaris that allowed direct root login using telnet was re-introduced into Solaris 10
I disagree on this point. telnet is an application, and so is not inherently architecture-dependent at the source-code level.
The x86-32/x86-64 call stack translation subsystem, being a hardware-oriented component of the Linux kernel specific to the x86 architecture, **is** architecture-dependent at the source-code level. This makes it very likely that this bug would not be reproduced in Linux kernels compiled against other CPU types.
You know the noise "facepalm" makes?
Sort of
That's really more of a *headdesk*.
"This is true, but the existence of vulnerabilities like these are a big deal in corporate, government and educational environments, where Linux is a mainstay. "
Well, I find the above flattering to the Linux community. Which is great. But can it be supported with some proof? Wouldn't something like "where Linux has a significant user base" or "where Linux is deployed in significant numbers" been a more defensible position?
Linux IS A Mainstay
Deutsche Börse - leading derivatives platform - soon all Linux
Google - all Linux
Facebook - all Linux
CERN - leading end-the-world-fear-attractor/Master Proton Smasher - all Linux
Android - Linux
countless faceless devices like DSL routers - Linux
Even though the financial sector has the money to buy from IBM and MS, they have discovered that it makes much more sense to go with the Google approach (hire smart and expensive people, use Linux and other FOSS).
Adobe, MS and Oracle demonstrated this year that their ability to adapt and fix problems is comparable to the ability of a slug to cross a highway. Eventually they will make it.
Linux fixes exploits in two days, normally. Now somebody fixed Adobe's crap with a hex editor. They don't manage even though they have the source. I guess their developers don't have time for that because they busily update their "personal performance metrics and professional development" Excel sheet. If they are not held up by a "global business intelligence meeting". Or by fixing their Visual SourceSafe code-fermentization&decomposition facility.
I once worked for Quark, and they did use VSS.
Can you cite a few sources for your linux use? I know for a fact that Google are pretty heavy Windows users, their servers may well be linux, but do you remember the rather large hack from China earlier in the year?
CERN and Other Scientific Linux Users
In General
Tokio Stock Exchange
Facebook & Linux
Google and Linux
AFAIK, all servers at Google are Linux. I interviewed with them and Windows was never asked about. But questions like "how do you kill a process if the max number of processes is executing" ?
Deutsche Börse & Linux
@Fraser: Don't need a source, just a brain.
Given the kind of computing power needed to do the indexing Google does to support as many users as Google does, if they were paying MS for even a significant minority of their servers, MS would be a far more profitable company than it is.
Some sources of Info...
@ Fraser
As I understand it the hack attack on Google was not their public search engine servers et all but against the corporate infrastructure, i.e. the network of desktop machines used in the corporate offices. See http://techcrunch.com/2010/01/12/google-china-attacks.
Google has also been reported to be kicking Windows to the curb in its corporate infrastructure. See
for more on that one.
@Tom - I do have a brain, my brain says to me that the hack of Windows machines that was plastered all over the Internet a few months ago suggests that Google are Windows users. I made no statement suggesting that they are exclusively Windows users, which would be idiotic as they are obviously heavy Linux users. Many companies run heterogeneous networks, it's very rare to find companies which use a single OS/Hardware platform.
@Stephen - Thanks for the serious reply...
"valid account on the machine" is stretching things a bit
let's say your linux PC is a mail server, and it scans incoming mail for viruses. Let's also say there's a bug with the archive tool you use, meaning a malformed archive can be used to execute code on the machine (it's happened)
congratulations, you now have a "valid account on the machine" and can use this exploit. see also: anything that manipulates images, and a malformed image, etc. etc. etc.
you don't need to have SSH access; you just need to be able to run commands on the machine
linux kernel
Grows and changes every three-ish months.
Not to diminish this as having significance, but the Linux kernel is the largest software project on earth... it is always changing... that kind of makes it a moving target as far as exploits are concerned.
Currently it is at 2.6.35.x I think. The system is inherently safe anyway.
Inherently wha?
> The system is inherently safe anyway.
Not sure what you mean by that... No computer operating system, application, or platform can be called "inherently safe" unless it was specifically designed for safety from the ground-up. Very few general-purpose, consumer- and commercial-grade operating systems and platforms fall into this category.
Telco-grade Class 4 (4ESS) and Class 5 (5ESS) circuit switching equipment, certain automated railroad signalling systems, some types of industrial control equipment, and various medical device control systems fall may fall into the "inherently safe" category, but your home or office PC, even if it runs Linux, most assuredly does not.
I'm an ardent GNU/Linux supporter, and have been using it almost exclusively as my OS of choice for the better part of 10 years now (none of my home PCs run Windows or Mac OS X). Even so, I would be foolhardy if I trusted it to be "inherently safe."
While I do believe that GNU/Linux-based operating systems are **safer** in many ways than Windows and Mac OS X, I have seen my share of GNU/Linux boxes crash-and-burn (figuratively) because of poor configuration, lackadaisical patching, improper oversight, and yes, even the not-so-occasional bugs (both new and regressed).
> The system is inherently safe anyway.
Urrrrm, not.
You're not related to Steve Jobs are you?
General purpose, inherent safety
To clarify my earlier position: That is not to say that general-purpose computing systems with inherent safety don't exist. They do; they're just not very common.
One general-purpose computer design that **may** be considered "inherently safe" -- if properly implemented -- is a so-called "Harvard architecture" machine. This type of computer has physically separate data and code (program) buses and memories, so data can't grow to overwrite code, and code can't grow to overwrite data. The IBM ASCC/Harvard Mark I was the basis for this type of design. Modern examples of this kind of architecture include embedded systems based around AVR (Atmel Corp) and PIC (Microchip Technology, Inc.) microcontrollers.
what version?
"... the Linux kernel is the largest software project on earth... it is always changing... that kind of makes it a moving target as far as exploits are concerned."
Yes indeed, if all existing installations are patched or upgraded as soon as the new version is available.
What percentage of installations still use the original vulnerable kernel? What percentage use the first fixed kernel? What percentage use the second vulnerable kernel? What percentage are going to be patched today with the fixed fixed kernel?
How many users (home or business) actually upgrade the kernel every three-ish months?
It might be a moving target, but if it's a mile long it takes a minute to pass through your sights at 60mph... plenty of time to get quite a few shots off...
RE: General purpose, inherent safety
There have been some more general purpose examples of "Harvard architecture" machines, one example was the souped up StrongARM cpu released for the Acorn RiscPC.
I remember at the time a number of apps/utilities falling over as their self-modifying code tricks would no longer work (one legit use was executables that would self decompress and run back when hard drive space was a lot pricier).
I don't know if any of the subsequent ARM designs continued to make use of this or not.
To answer your question...
The ARM7 is von Neumann; the ARM9 is Harvard.
Just-In-Time Compilation is a modern case which Harvard architectures can't handle, either. Basically, any program that builds or modifies code to be executed on the fly (IOW, a program that necessarily blurs the code/data divide) cannot work in a Harvard architecture.
Your Stack is still unprotected, as the program *must* be able to change it. It is a bit more complicated, but still possible. Stack smashing does not necessarily include injecting machine code.
Simple Example:
there is a
int exec_shell(char* cmd);
function. All you have got to manage is to put "rm -rf /" on the stack, change the return address to the function above and you are set to delete the whole file system of that machine (assuming it is a root process).
This is just one of the simple examples, btw.
Harvard architectures are not guaranteed-secure
Just because the data and code memory sections do not overlap does not mean it is impossible to attack a Harvard architecture machine. While they make it much less likely to *accidentally* break the machine by overwriting code, it is still possible to use code that already exists to form programs. For instance, appropriately changing function return addresses to take you into very specific parts of known libraries, then forming those bits of known code into programs.
For reference, see "Code Injection Attacks on Harvard-Architecture Devices" by Francillon and Castelluccia at the 2008 ACM Computer and Communications Security Conference. You might also be interested in looking into return oriented programming, e.g. "The Geometry of Innocent Flesh on the Bone: Return-into-libc without Function Calls (on the x86)" by Hovav Shacham at CCS 2007.
title, I don't need no frackin' title
1/2 mile @ 60mph=1/2 minute
> Just because the data and code memory sections do not overlap does not mean it is impossible to attack a Harvard architecture machine.
I never indicated that attacking a Harvard architecture machine was impossible. I indicated that Harvard machines may be considered "inherently safe," depending on implementation.
Hence the " **may** be considered 'inherently safe' -- if properly implemented " bit.
It should be kept in mind that some of the more modern Harvard architecture machines are microcontrollers in embedded systems, which are (generally) more readily hardened against code infiltration and code rewriting attacks, by virtue of requiring the chip containing the software to be physically removed and mounted in an EEPROM programmer to modify the programs stored within.
However, even this level of protection only gets you so far. Not even a Harvard machine will stand up to a highly sophisticated attack, if the attacker can gain access to the processor's address and data buses, divert the bitstreams to an external system for processing and analysis, then inject specially-crafted data back into the system.
A given system can therefore only be considered "inherently safe" with regard to the purpose for which it is designed. A microcontroller implementation which is suitable for telco use, and considered "inherently safe" by the telecom industry, may not be suitable for running a nuclear missile launch control system. The device is thus "inherently safe" for one application, but not another.
Current Linux Version
> Currently it is at 2.6.35.x I think.
Actually, as of today (Friday, September 17, 2010), the current version is:
Linux Kernel 2.6.36-rc4-git3 (includes the patches for the most recent exploit)
I just downloaded applied the patch, compiled and installed it on my box.
[ejm@Galicja ~]$ uname -a
Linux Galicja 2.6.36-rc4-git3-ARCHMOD #1 PREEMPT Fri Sep 17 13:17:59 CEST 2010 x86_64 Genuine Intel(R) CPU 575 @ 2.00GHz GenuineIntel GNU/Linux
Patch Promptly Applied
> Yes indeed, if all existing installations are patched or upgraded as soon as the new version is available.
Patch applied and kernel upgraded.
[ejm@Galicja ~]$ uname -a
Linux Galicja 2.6.36-rc4-git3-ARCHMOD #1 PREEMPT Fri Sep 17 13:17:59 CEST 2010 x86_64 Genuine Intel(R) CPU 575 @ 2.00GHz GenuineIntel GNU/Linux
It was a cake walk!
> How many users (home or business) actually upgrade the kernel every three-ish months?
I upgrade almost every time a significant patch comes along, and that can be once per week.
Maybe we should just make the kernel 'closed source' and then no-one would ever know about vulnerabilities.
Amazing how the cliky-clicky brigade gets all horny when a weakness in Linux is exposed.
Get a life. :)
is the poor little linux boy getting upset because someone is getting a taste of the same medicine every other OS gets when a fault is found.....
Be careful getting off your high horse - it's a long way down.
[Imagine catchy title here]
Being closed source hasn't kept Windows vulnerabilities from being made public..... Malware developers don't let a simple license clause making it illegal to disassemble code slow them down.
No matter what the OS, there will be vulnerabilities; even the old VIC-20 and C64 had their weak spots that would render them useless permanently.
I prefer using Linux over any other OS, but don't operate under a delusion that it is 100% safe. Among the reasons I am such a fan of Linux and other open source software is that I love to play around with the code under the hood.
Being open source...
...shouldn't this have been found and patched ages ago?
Oh wait, it was.
A Bug versus a Virus.
> is the poor little linux boy getting upset because someone is
> getting a taste of the same medicine every other OS gets
> when a fault is found.....
It's not the same "medicine" at all.
When Windows has a problem it's usually much more meaningful and real malware is released to the wild and people's systems actually get infected. The architecture of the system makes a bug like this far less dangerous.
Local root exploits are as old as Unix and predate Linux entirely.
its a legitimate point
No, the point he's making is that other OS's try to hide their crap code by keeping it secret.
By the way, if you have no strong views on the CofE being established or not, then your handle is a bit sad. I think I've made a similar point to you in the past. You do know what your handle refers to, I presume?
My handle, however, refers to something that I do frequently, one way or another.
Linux fans
"No doubt, Linux fans will be quick to point out that the bug can be exploited only by those with a valid account on a targeted machine in the first place."
This Linux fan tells you that it's a valid point, no matter you try to bashing it. Do you want to discuss the Print Spooler privilege escalation bug on Windows XP? I'm asking it because the existence of vulnerabilities like these are a big deal in corporate, government and educational environments. Sigh...
Are the Windows "news" of critical bugs boring nowadays?
Someone help me out here
...but is there even coverage on privilege escalation issues inside Windows?
I don't think there was any to-do being made after this Defcon presentation (http://vimeo.com/14581715) and, unless I missed something, there isn't any current defense against the escalation exploits much less "fixes".
Maybe I'm off base with that statement. I know the guys had practiced their demo, I know they could break into lots of things - including Linux - but the way they described what they were doing with Powershell appeared to indicate that there was a huge hole allowing you to do pretty much whatever you wanted once you authenticated.
Gee, thanks Red Hay. Nice one.
Largest? Really?
RE: t"he Linux kernel is the largest software project on earth."
I've never heard that before, is it true or just something that seemed cool to write?
Re : Largest? Really?
"I've never heard that before, is it true"
No. The latest release (2.6.35) has about 13.5 million lines of (non-documentation) code in it however, so it is quite substantial.
" or just something that seemed cool to write?"
Or is it?
If you think of the number of developers working on it, and the length it's been running as well as the code size, it might well qualify
That's some serious bloatware. No wonder they keep finding these bugs. Let's hope it never really goes mainstream or we could be in some big shit,.
Open = Secure?
Its an operating system. Bugs are part of the process, as are security vulnerabilities. Fortunately the Unix/Linux/Mac world is built on an inherently secure foundation (which is why in almost every corporate, government, and education environment some distant relative of BSD System V has a significant installed base) and why these vulnerabilities are rarely seen in the wild - it still happens and part of the inherent security is the relatively small adoption among non-technical users. Windows might be more vulnerable indeed, but its vulnerability is heightened by the large numbers of users not regularly patching, and not using security software which the OS developer says is needed, its part of their security strategy like it or not. I don't think Linux is the second coming of anything, but this is just one of those things that happens during the process, not worth going all chicken little about.
Inherently secure
Mr/Ms/Mrs/Dolphin captain_solo, it would really help your case if you didn't just *say* that unix-clones are inherently secure, but also provided some *evidence* of this Inherent Security.
Sounds like a code fork BORK
All multideveloper code has forks all over the place.
Something has happened to allow this bug back in to the codebase. The question is what ? Across the board the fact that this is not a frequent issue indicates the codebase management tools are pretty good.
Sheesh I can't even manage my own projects properly ! Or maybe I just can't program very well.
Who am I to criticise ?
Yes, this is indeed a problem
We should not look at *JUST* the bug but *HOW* it was allowed to happen and try and put safeguards against such a future recurrence.
Human beings will always make mistakes but we should try and minimize them.
One cannot deny this was sloppy.
However, one should look at the positive side of it. The bug currently in question was found and reported because someone out there could look at the source. And there are people out there constantly looking at it. It is definitely a plus that we can do this.
Who knows how many bugs remain hidden in, for example, windows because it is still closed?
we think a measured WTF is in order.
Is this official El Reg policy?
... what is the accepted unit of WTF with which it should be measured?

The car hauler was junk. Had to wait to have someone fix the latch so I could hook the trailer up. Then the lights quit working son I had to wait on that. Customer service is the worst I've seen.
The staff was friendly, helpful, courteous and professional. The equipment was excellent. We had no problems and will use this location again if the need ever arises.
thank you
Appreciated that they hooked everything up for me!
What an easy experience it was to rent a unit from. Owner was very friendly and helped hook the unit up. Very clean facility and a nice hunting and fishing shop. There was a group of good ol boys sharing stories inside. Will due business with again.
Nothing. Person was helpful, and helped connect the trailer to my truck.
Nothing. The person I spoke with was courteous, and connected the trailer to my truck. Very helpful.
The car transport straps were unusable! Had to chain vehicle to trailer and hope it made the trip. Truck was unsafe with a badly aimed headlight, poor steering, and had to add 4 quarts of oil to motor as it was almost EMPTY.
This drop off location was at a fishing shack on a river and the facility was very surprisingly uninviting when you walked inside. It was as if you were "not welcome". I would highly recommend you DO NOT have this as a UHaul location.

How I installed Fedora 18 with UEFI Secure Boot
Summary: Here's my experience of installing Fedora 18 with UEFI Secure Boot - and why the much-maligned anaconda installer is not as bad as a lot of people think.
8 of 17Image
Target Disk Drive Selection
Now I am going into the most critical - and perhaps most controversial - area, the disk layout.
The obvious part of this screen is the selection of the target physical disk. The less obvious part is lurking under Full disk summary and options... at the bottom of the screen. If you don't want to install a bootloader at all (unusual, but not unheard of), click this label to get the screen where you can disable grub installation. Also, if you want full data encryption click the check box for that. I click 'Continue' to proceed.
LVM Selection and Manual Partitioning
At this point I have entered enough information for anaconda to complete the disk partitioning. It will use LVM for disk/partition management; if you don't want LVM, click on Partition Scheme configuration and you can change it, as shown here, to Standard Partition.
It will also make the following assumptions about the disk layout:
- A new EFI Boot partition will be created
- A new swap partition will be created
- A root partition will be created
- A home partition will be created
If any of these assumptions are not to your likeing (almost none of them are to mine, as I want to use the existing EFI Boot partition that was originally created for Windows 8, the existing swap partition which I created for openSuSE, and I don't want a separate home partition on this system), then check the box for 'Let me customize...' Either way, click 'Continue' to return to the hub, or proceed to the detailed partitioning screen.
Disk Partitioning Overview
This is probably the anaconda screen which has gotten the most criticism.
It is, to say the least, not entirely intuitive what is going on here, what it is showing you, what needs to be done, and how to do it. Other than that, it is really good...
What anaconda is trying to do here is show the disk layout grouped by logical function or usage, rather than just showing a linear list or diagram of disk partitions.
This is probably a good thing (once you understand it) because it really does make more sense to look at it this way — but it is totally different from anything that has been done before, and that has generated a lot of backlash from users.
Particularly confusing is the fact that some "shared" partitions, such as EFI Boot and linux-swap, can be listed in several of the logical groups. That makes sense when you think about how they are used, they really are part of several different logical installations, but it is very confusing if you are accustomed to thinking of a single linear view of the disk layout.
The first group in list will be the new Fedora installation. As yet nothing has been allocated to it; if I click on the 'Click here to create them automatically' label, it will create the partitions as I described in the previous screen (EFI, root, home and swap). You could then accept that, or further customize it as you want.
However, I am going to manually create the layout that I want, so the first thing I do is click on the "+" at the bottom of the window, to create a new partition for the root filesystem.

Theater of Hate: Latest court filing from gay marriage opponents strikes familiar, laughable chord
Seemingly oblivious to the fact that righteous inevitability is indeed inevitable, yesterday the cabal of Christian circus freaks and handmaidens that includes the Florida Family Policy Council's grumblepuss John Stemberger filed a 43-page argument in a Miami circuit court ripped straight from the quack-science and idiot sociology handbook that already failed the group when gay adoption was made legal in Florida. By now, you're already aware of the Ruvin case that is seeking to overturn the state's gay marriage ban which you may have inadvertently forced into the Florida Constitution in 2008 because the ballot question was worded so poorly; there is a hearing in the case scheduled for July 2. Proponents of gay marriage representing six LGBT couples have made the case for a summary judgement from the court, something that the other side is willing to show its ass over in order to fight it. The argument goes something like this: All of these gay people are just whining, there is no evidence of discrimination or harm done, they are systemically breaking down the institution of marriage which lets the individual sexes know where they stand in society (!), all gays have AIDS, all gays are whores and kids should not be around gay people. Also, in other countries gay marriage has brought a change in the coupling habits (and out-of-wedlock child bearing) of whole cultures! And we don't believe in evolution! Don't believe us? Here's some cherry picking.
"Same-sex unions and comprehensive unions are not only distinct by nature, but also by how they are treated by those engaged in them. In the 1980s, two homosexual professors undertook a survey of same-sex couples in an attempt to prove homosexual unions are exclusive. However, contrary to their hypothesis, not one homosexual couple of those surveyed stayed sexually exclusive longer than five years.25 The study showed "[t]he expectation for outside sexual activity was the rule for male couples and the exception for heterosexuals."26 By contrast, 99 percent of heterosexual couples expect sexual exclusivity in their marriage, and violations of it are "the leading cause of divorce across 160 cultures and are one of the most frequent reasons that couples seek marital therapy."27 Similarly, a "U.S. survey found that the average number of sexual partners since the age of eighteen for men who identified as homosexual or bisexual was over two and a half times as many as the average for heterosexual men."28 Social science studies of the behavior of homosexuals disprove the assertion that same- sex couples are similarly situated to opposite-sex couples."
Or, we're all whores and heterosexual people are angels. Really. It gets worse. And filthy!
"In fact, it is because of this natural aspect of a female-male union that, historically, consummation required sexual intercourse and not simply any sexual act between the coup−le the idea was to join the parts that, together, have the potential to embody a whole. Thus, laws protecting marriage as the union of one man and one woman are advocating for a social good. The 'law reflected the rational judgment that unions consummated by coitus were valuable in themselves, and different in kind from other bonds.' '[T]wo men, two women, and larger groups cannot achieve organic bodily union: there is no bodily good or function toward which their bodies can coordinate,' like procreation."
GAH!!!! OK, here comes the kicker. Gay is not healthy.
"In memorializing the definition of marriage as the union of one man and one woman in the Florida Constitution, the voters of Florida acted to not only preserve and protect the social goods of marriage, e.g. stability, permanency, fidelity, sexual equality and the continuation of society, but also to promote health, safety and welfare. Social science, medical science, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, and even homosexual rights activists have established that there are inherent harms associated with same-sex unions, harms that would be financially and socially costly to the entire state. As psychologist David Pickup testifies, men having sex with men (MSM) comprise 48% of all individuals with HIV/AIDS in the United States, but make up only an estimated 2-4% of men in the population.72 "This is occurring in a context where MSM are reporting higher rates of sexual risk behaviors in recent years in spite of increasing cultural acceptance." (Pickup Declaration, ¶30). On May 9, 2014, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention published a report documenting significant increases in sexually transmitted diseases in homosexual men for the period 2005-2013, calling the trend a 'major public health concern.'"
This is in keeping with numerous other reports from the CDC cataloging health risks associated with homosexual conduct. For example, homosexual males are at exponentially higher risk of developing a variety of sexually transmitted diseases, and have increased risks of developing various cancers and medical conditions because of the nature of same-sex sex.74 As Dr. Reisman testifies, "[a]ccording to 2011 CDC statistics, we find that male-to-male sexual contact (without any injection drug use) accounted for 90.8% of all HIV diagnoses for males aged 20-24, and 92.8% of all HIV diagnoses for males aged 13-19."
OK, enough. You can read all 43 pages of drivel – along with an affidavit from the alleged "expert" Dr. Reisman being utilized to paint gays as abusive whores – below. Attorney Mary Meeks, who is one of the lawyers fighting for the freedom to marry, dismisses the filing outright. Procedural nonsense. Carry on.
"This is all the same tired and discredited arguments that have already been soundly rejected by courts all over the nation," she writes in an email. "We are focused on going to court on July 2 and making the legitimate constitutional arguments that we hope will bring marriage equality to our amazing plaintiff couples, and will align Florida with the growing list of equality states."
Still it's better to know the idiocy being used to define you, even if certain people would have you believe that everything is fixed now and there's no more "activist" fight left to sweat over. Read, weep.

GreatSchools Rating
Teacher quality
Principal leadership
Parent involvement
I have 2 students that are recieving an excellent education as well as an experience.
I keep reading about how Sparta students don't get into good schools, but I'm a Duke grad. Of my friends who I graduated with, we have Princeton, Yale, Dartmouth, Harvard, UVA, and Stanford represented. I'm not sure what they're talking about when they say "You'll be lucky to get into Community College."
This school is average. There are highs and lows. Many teachers will support you if you want. If you're lazy, they will not hesitate to let you fall behind. I attend MIT now, and a few of my graduating class also attend Ivy league schools. While I wasn't accepted to MIT due to my being at Sparta high, being in college now, I value what i did learn here. My education here was very good, because my parents decided to make it so. You can go far from being a Sparta graduate, but not without outside help. All in all, Sparta is a good platform to jump off of or fall from, but it really depends on your legs to see how far you land and how well you stand.
I attended Sparta High School and am proud that I went there. The teachers and coaching staff were excellent overall. I participated in cross-country and track. Ms. Lockhart was a fabulous, patient algebra instructor. I felt a part of the school community. GO SPARTA!
Our daughter graduated from Sparta & had a wonderful experience; many great opportunities; She went on to a good university where she excelled thanks to the good education she had received a Sparta!
Sparta High School Doesn't make the grade. Test scores don't lie. The most recent state testing indicates that Sparta High is ranked #42 in the "I" school district out of a total of 48 schools. This places Sparta High near the very bottom of their district. Yes, the school has been remodeled and they are trying their annual curriculum change. However, this has been done almost every year and the results continue to disappoint. Things will not change until they get rid of the Superintendent and his supporters on the BOE that have driven this once proud "Blue Ribbon" school district into the ground. High taxes and poor school performance all add up to a bad school choice. Private school in Sparta is a must if you want your kids to get a good education!
We moved here from a state in which we thought that the public school system was less than adequate. We had read and heard from our realtor that Sparta High School was in the top tier of the state. What a huge shock to find that not only was this school below expectations, but our "less than average' school system from another state was far superior in terms of SAT scores and overall education scores. Our children expressed out of control classrooms, teachers who teach in a politically liberal if not accurate sense, and a staff that leads out of fear of parental retribution. The students who graduate from SHS are not attending Ivy League schools. In fact, many are happy to get into community college. The students run this school, and the leadership allows it. If you are reading this and considering moving to Sparta for the school system...make sure that you have enough built into your budget for private schools. You'll find it you are going to need it!
I am disappointed by the Sparta BOE. I moved here speciifcally for the educational system 8 years ago. I have been going to nearly all the BOE meetings and sadly see all the wasteful spending that they do. At a $64 Mill. budget they just keep spending. They make careless decisions and keep all the focus on the high schoolers and not on the younger elementary kids. The educational system is trending downward; they need to get new leadership from the BOE and the super.
Sparta just passed the largest referendum in the state showing the communities commitment to keeping the schools great in Sparta. They consistently pass budgets and have an Education Foundation that is active is raising the funds needed to keep excellance in the schools.
The music programs haven't enough funding, the building is falling apart and the new addition won't be finished for years (putting students in trailers for classes), sports are overemphasized, teachers are unsympathetic and uncaring. Honors and AP classes are mostly a joke and consist of an arbitrary unduly long application and testing process for acceptance, extremely small classes, and the same studies as the regular programs but with more homework. I would not at all recommend this school.
Academics not important at SHS: athletics matter infinitely more. Best department is music; music teachers very best in school. Superintendent is horrible. Very few students allowed into AP and honors classes. Most students have little or no homework. Teachers hand out mimeographed papers (copious) with illegible handwriting. Suggestion - if you want your kids to get a good education, bypass Sparta High.
I'm not a parent but a graduate of the Sparta school system. I've recently graduated from college with high honors and am working in my desired field, well ahead of many of my piers. SHS served as a superb starting point for a successful future. I had the privilege of learning from some of the best teachers (some better than many of my college professors) I've ever known. I took mostly AP/Honors classes throughout my HS career and learned a great deal. An earlier review said that the selection process for these classes is arbitrary, but I assure you that's not the case. As long as you took the time to apply and proved that you belonged there, you can join these classes. The same review also said: 'If your plans include a top college, then forget it,' but all of my friends went on to prestigious institutions, including Harvard.
I think it is a great school. I feel my children and their friends have learnt a lot and have contributed equally back to the school and community. Sparta has seen growth in population in the past few years. With growth comes new problems - housing, schools and safety. Sparta has handled these problems quite well.
While the school is a bit overcrowded and the facilities are a tad dated, the quality of education is second to none. The teachers are top notch, the sports teams are successful and the arts programs are diversified and well run.
Academic excellence is not a priority at Sparta High School. A large number of the experienced teacher have retired or moved to other schools. Teachers don't want too many honor or AP students and the school administrators have devised an arbitrary formula to reject potentially eligible candidates. The school is overcrowded and there is a neverending battle between the Superintendent and the Township about building a new high school. The sentiment in the township is against it. Many people believe that there is room in the present school for expansion at a much lower cost. If you are interested in football, soccer, or baseball or don't have much academic expectations for your kid, then Sparta High is not a bad choice. If your plans include a top college, then forget it.

Omega 3 oils could help cut age-related macular degeneration risk.
Washington, July 23 (ANI): A diet high in omega 3 oils can lower the risk of developing age related macular degeneration macular degeneration, eye disorder causing loss of central vision. The affected area, the macula, lies at the back of the retina and is the part that produces the sharpest vision. , says a new study.
The study has been published in the August 2009 issue of the American Journal of Pathology.
Age-related macular degeneration Age-related macular degeneration (ARMD)
Degeneration of the macula (the central part of the retina where the rods and cones are most dense) that leads to loss of central vision in people over 60. (AMD (Advanced Micro Devices, Inc., Sunnyvale, CA, www.amd.com) A major manufacturer of semiconductor devices including x86-compatible CPUs, embedded processors, flash memories, programmable logic devices and networking chips. ), loss of vision in the center of the visual field (macula) due to retinal damage, is one of the leading causes of legal blindness among the elderly.
Now, a group led by Dr. Chi-Chao Chan at the National Eye Institute in Bethesda, in America, has found that mice fed a diet high in omega three oils had slower progression of the leisons in the eye and some improvement.
These mice had lower levels of inflammatory molecules and higher levels of anti-inflammatory molecules, which may explain this protective effect.
The results "further provide the scientific basis for the application of omega-3 fatty acids This is a list of omega-3 fatty acids.

DEFINITION of 'First To File Rule'
A rule stating that whoever is the first to file suit is awarded their home courts. The first to file rule provides an advantage in that the litigator may be familiar with the judge/court, and will not have to incur any extra costs such as travel expenses, nor leave their home for the duration of the trial. The first to file rule is just a general rule. It is not law, and exceptions can be made.
INVESTOPEDIA EXPLAINS 'First To File Rule'
Often, a change of location can be made as per a request, however, you run the risk of offending the local court as well as impeding on another, perhaps more crowded court. This means that the trial may be put on hold and dealt with in the order it was received by the new court which could be a significant delay.

JustTextGiving by Vodafone
Terms and Conditions
The Guidelines:
You can find some useful information about the JustTextGiving £100 challenge (the "Challenge") on the Vodafone Hub.
To enter the Challenge you must:
- Be a UK based employee of one of the following companies:
- Vodafone Limited; or
- Vodafone Group Services Limited.
- Select a UK-registered charity to raise funds for. Note, if your charity isn't a JustGiving member charity you'll need to follow the JustTextGiving 'nominate a charity' process to get their approval to raise funds for them. In support of the £100 challenge, JustGiving are providing 3 months membership for free, you can find out more on the Vodafone Hub.
- Set up your own JustTextGiving code (also known as a Vodafone Individual Code or "VIC") for your chosen charity via the Employee Fundraising Hub, or link a VIC you already have. This is how we'll monitor how much we're raising. We won't be able to match funds raised on a VIC which is not connected to the Fundraising Hub.
If you raise at least £100 of text donations (excluding GiftAid) via JustTextGiving between 16 September 2013 and 24 December 2013 we'll double it and pay £100 of matched funds to your charity.
You can add a maximum of two VICs, supporting two different charities, to the Fundraising hub for the challenge and receive up to £200 of matched funds (£100 matched funding limit per VIC), even if you raise more than £100 (subject to availability of Vodafone Foundation matched funding).
Once you reach £100, you will no longer be able to unlink or switch the individual code you are using for the challenge.
If you are fundraising as part of a group with more than one eligible employee, each of you must have your own personal VIC as we can only make one £100 matched funding payment per employee and VIC.
Although you must have your own VIC, you can carry out fundraising activities with colleagues. If you've already got a VIC that friends or family members (not Vodafone employees) are using as well, you can still use this VIC to claim the £100.
If you raise more than £100, or money through alternative means (i.e. online donations) you can get the rest of the money matched via the normal employee matched funding scheme. If you're a Vodafone mobile employee you can apply for matched funding here; if you're a fixed line employee you can apply for matched funding here. Remember, the £100 you raise, and resulting matched funds through the Challenge cannot be matched again.
Other information:
- Where we need to, we'll use your details to run the Challenge, verify details and contact you.
- We'll try and fulfil our obligations to run the Challenge smoothly however we will not be responsible if something happens which isn't in our reasonable control.
- We reserve the right to decline support where the fundraising event may conflict with Vodafone's values and principles.
- You must follow these rules or we may have to disqualify you!
- By entering the Challenge we'll take that as your acceptance of these rules.
- The Challenge opens on Monday 16 September 2013 and closes at 23:59 on 24 December 2013. Sorry but money raised after this time will not be counted towards the Challenge.
If you have any questions or want more info please email email@example.com.
Good luck.

Why would this movie be considered a family/Christian film when one movie review says it has "minor" language and uses God's name in vain? I will not be purchasing this movie because of the language used and feel it is a disgrace to even be on this web site if it indeed uses God's name as a cuss word. What a tragedy.
Duke - DVD – James R, 01/04/2014
FANTASTIC movie, very well done! Great acting, HDTV quality, Duke the dog was the highlight and wow what a totally trained canine :-) Could of done without the minor swearing though and God's name in vain once!
Duke - DVD – Richard and Linda D, 12/15/2013
Duke tells the "based on true events" story of a wounded veteran (Terry Pulaski, played by Steven Weber), who abandons his family, due to his physical and mental difficulties. Yes, this is a heart-warming film (almost solely due to the actions of Duke); but the actions of the spouse, while limited in our viewing of them, would seem to indicate that she was not concerned about dealing with the difficulties of her husband's war wounds, which led to the tragedy of his family abandonment). Duke, played by Zeek, is truly the star of this film. Enjoy!

Alice S: I generally like Hallmark movies. Dog stories usually have a heart-warming plot that feature not only the relationship between the character and dog, but among the characters, too. The dog seems to facilitate healing of a person's wounded spirit, so the person can relate to others in a more open, loving manner. May 29, 2013

Trader Joe's. What is it??
- Davwud Jan 18, 2011 08:39 AM
Hey Hounds
So Mrs. Sippi was telling me yesterday that they may be opening a TJ's in Huntsville, Al. I have two questions.
First of all as she asked me, I'll ask you. What is Trader Joe's?? Is it like a Costco (which is what I thought it was) or is it like Wholefoods?? If B then is it actually like WF or does it lean more towards Earth Fare (Same idea but you don't need OAC for purchase there)??
The second question is, should I be happy or indifferent. I like EF but don't shop there all that much. I do not like WF and seldom go. I'll only go if I'm looking for something specific. I really won't pay more for something simply because it's organic.
Preachers need not apply.
Trader Joe's has a lot of items in pretty packaging, but I have yet to find any items other than their ice cream, nuts or candies that I would make a special return trip for. Their breads are often stale, their produce is not the best and I find their dairy products seem to spoil quicker. The later seems to be due to the way they accept their deliveries. The times I am in the store, I often see the daily deliveries sitting on the floor and not put away in any refrigeration.
I am not a fan.
Hi DT,
Trader Joe's a specialty grocery store (like Whole Foods) that carries a lot of "speciality" products, many/most of which carry their own "Traders ___" brand name (although my understanding is that they do not produce or manufacture their own prodcuts). Unlike a regular grocery store though, they do not have many products...most stores that I have been to have been fairly small in size.
I have never been to Earth Fare so I cannot comment, but I will say that most prices at Trader Joe's are very fair. It is not really like Costco in the sense that it is not a wholesaler, and it does not make you buy large quantities.
I think opinions are somewhat mixed as to whether TJ's is super or not. However, personally, I like TJ's a lot and always make a point to visit when I'm in a city with a TJ's and stock up on snacks to bring back to Toronto.
Hope that helps!
Be happy.
Trader Joe's is neither like Costco nor Whole Foods. It's much, much smaller than a warehouse store with packaging in conventional sizes. It's also much smaller with less selection per item than Whole Foods.
But that's what it isn't. What it is is a market with friendly people, a great selection of wines, liquors, cheeses, nuts & dried fruit and packaged baked goods. If you're a baker you won't get a better price for top quality chocolate anywhere else. They carry a good inventory of general items and prepared foods at really good prices. It's a market with conveniently packaged produce like a bag with small packets of peeled garlic cloves or a package of the variety of fresh items you want for guacamole: an avocado or two, a jalapeño, a small tomato or two, a shallot and a lime (also great for gazpacho BTW). It's an interesting cross between the inventory and prices of a supermarket with some of the ambiance of a small neighborhood market.
They also get great seasonal items at Christmas.
There are lots of Trader Joe's threads. Most of them will sound like "preachers" but that's because it's a great concept for a market and done very well. The only downsides I would identify for Trader Joe's is that when they sell spiced foods like their prepared Indian dishes or add spices to their nuts they tend to overdo it, when you fall in love with something it could disappear if they don't get the price they want or everyone else didn't love it as much as you did and the parking lots are almost universally too small because everyone shops there.
Be sure to try it. I bet you'll like it too.
PS: I don't know Earth Faire so I can't make a comparison to that. In case Earth Faire is a health food store, Trader Joe's doesn't make that claim tho the emphasis is on food with a minimum of artificial ingredients and moving things through quickly rather than relying on a lot of preservatives.
Wow, another TJ thread :^/. I buy egg and dairy products, maple syrup, nuts, frozen fish, and a few other odds and ends at TJ's. Nothing that needs to be especially fresh. They specialize in items that don't fit in the typical supermarket commodity business model, so, they are able to charge less.
Trader Joe's is a discount store that sells restaurant quality items. Many people use foodstamps there. It is like a costco, in that they do not advertise, and they run their business tightly (more than 50% of a product's cost actually spent on the product).
It is also nice for good staples, like Marcona Almonds, steel cut quick oats, etc. But you'll love it for the frozen section.
If you shop at a Costco regularly, you'll see a lot of similar stuff, but in smaller quantities. And TJ leans more towards prepared foods. I never buy their produce.
If you like german imports, TJ's can't be beat. best in the country.
Grovery stores carry about 50,000 items, TJs has about 4000.
Dairy, produce, floral are locally sourced, so quality varies from region to region in the US
Prices for similar items are better at TJs. Hence the hundreds of threads.
You should be receiving a "Fearless Flyer" in the mail once one opens near you. It will explain the seasonal items, the limited in quantity items, mention why they can charge less for something...
Or you can look up your local Fearless Flyer online. www.traderjoes.com
And as you can see from the length of the "TJ food you love that got discontinued" thread, don't ever count on something at TJ's being there forever. Too bad if you get hooked on something! Oh, Ultimate Chocolate Sauce, I still miss you...
They are reliable for having the cheapest goat cheese and Greek yogurt, and certain other "staples". Good prices on vitamins et. al. and some toiletries.
In my area, WF responded to the coming of TJs by reducing prices on directly competitive (same brand and flavor organic cereal, for example) so they matched TJ. So it helps if you do ever shop at WF.
If your store has wine/beer, they usually have some interesting stuff at good prices but the selection varies a LOT.
Don't count on it for fresh vegetables and meat.
Do buy a Tarte D'Alsace. If they ever discontinue those there will be a revolution.
A Trader Joe's opened near me recently. In fact, I have to pass it on my way to Fairway. When I first checked it out I thought, nope, not for me. Definite emphasis on prepared foods. Thanks, but I prepare my own.
It's been a few months now and I'm beginning to learn what works for me in terms of both quality and price--and I'm finding a lot more than I first thought I would. Their McCann's Steel Cut Oats cost less than anyplace else near me as do their Empire Kosher chickens. During the holidays they had two different kinds of vacuum packed chestnuts, both very good, for less than half the price of French chestnuts in a jar that I usually buy. I've found excellent prices on skinless, boneless, sardines; brown rice; boxed, organic, low-sodium stocks. Their price for Australian rack of lamb rivals Costco.
It will never be one-stop shopping for me; not by a long shot. But it's definitely worth checking out. I don't like WF either. This is a different animal entirely. I'm very happy to have found a few quality products at very competitive prices, but I admit that it did take me a few visits and a few misses to find them.
There are a handful of items I will make a special TJ's trip for - peanut butter, some crackers/cookies, nuts, dried fruit, frozen fish.
Produce and dairy products depend greatly on the location of the store in relation to their distribution center. I've seen a lot of people complain about produce, but the produce at my TJ's is generally pretty good. Last week I had a bag of honey crisp apples that were some of the best I've had. They do over-package produce. I've had bad luck with bread though, usually turning moldy within a day of purchase. They would refund me for the bread if I asked, but it isn't worth the effort for me.
re: mpjmph
Yeah, I'm surprised to see negatives about TJ's produce. The produce at mine is just fine. Maybe not exemplary but just fine for everyday cooking. 'Course I grow a lot of my own so it's not my primary source of produce all year round but it's plenty acceptable in my area.
re: rainey
Same here...the produce at the TJ I shop at is great. Love those honey crisp apples that mpjmph mentioned. The bananas are almost always slightly green like my wife likes. and I haven't experienced problems with bread going bad ay faster than any other fresh bread.
re: rainey
Perhaps it's because my TJs is close to Fairway where there is a far larger selection of produce and the quality is superior across the board. Perhaps there's an expectation at my local TJs that since Fairway IS so close by that that's an area in which they can be a little slipshod. And I find odd lapses. You can buy shredded cabbage, but not a whole cabbage. The bunch of scallions come in a plastic bag and lasted less than half the time a bunch of scallions from Fairway would. The shallots, the one time they had them, were pretty sorry looking. Evidently the selection and quality can very considerably from one store to another.
I would say TJ is nothing like Costco or Whole Foods, but oddly they do seem to appeal to the same crowd (there may be a sociology masters thesis in there somewhere).
To try to put it in terms that someone who has not been to a TJ would understand, if you've ever been inside an Aldi's, then upscale it several notches and supply it with a rather eclectic variety of foods, with a strong tilt to organic and "ethnicy" packaged goods, many of them store brands, and then you will have a decent idea of what TJ is. The stores are fairly small, nothing as large as a Whole Foods. If you like what they have you will like it, but I think most people would have a hard time using it as their sole grocery source, because they really don't carry lots of the staples that we need and generally get at supermarkets.
Coming back to the sociology theme, I would say TJ is definitely a blue, not a red, store. Put another way, IMO those who tend to shop at Wal-mart would not tend to be TJ shoppers. I'd be interested to hear others' opinions about that assertion, tho.
(Note--I am not suggesting choice of food store is a political statement, nor am I seeking to start a political discussion. Rather, I'm suggesting that one's basic view of life tends to shape one's choices of all sorts of things, that there are patterns in these choices, and that in this case these patterns say something that goes to the question originally asked by the OP).
Davwud, you might want to peruse some of the many TJ's threads that have been started here on the Chains board over the years...it's a popular topic - the store and its products inspire quite a passionate debate among Hounds, and it could give you an interesting perspective on things. i'm personally beginning to think it has as many haters as it does fans here, and that realization surprised me!
your happiness or indifference will depend largely on your food preferences and shopping habits, and it would certainly be worth checking out at least once to form your own opinion.
re: goodhealthgourmet
TJ's is NOT a replacement for your regular grocery store, doesn't carry all the items and leans more towards specialty things, and its stock is not necessarily consistent. Prices are good/better on SOME items. It's owned by ALDI, which has the same "faults". Some of its stuff is great, and some sucks (their coffee, for instance, although the packaging is cool). I like their bread and cereal and have never had a problem with it. Like their cat food, don't care for their dishwasher detergent or paper products. NOT impressed with their produce or produce prices, but very impressed with their wine and beer selections and prices--and no not just the Chuck (which is fine for cooking, and even drinking once in awhile). And the people are so happy and cheery! I hear from a former employee that's a bit of a farce, though. GO HUNGRY, unlike most shopping because you can often eat your way through that place.
And maybe I am PURPLE or schizo, but I refuse to go to either WalFart or Hole Foods. One is too un-PC to me and I refuse to support that, and one horrendously overpriced and pretentious. Target is okay--I just never think about going there to specifically grocery shop, although I will if I am there anyway. I like Costco the few times I've been there, but I don't need five gallons of ketchup or a case of toilet paper. People seem to go a little crazy there and go home and end up with piles of STUFF all over the place.
So, go and check it out, but don't count on becoming a total convert. I guess you need to feel lucky too, because it's said that they get hundreds of requests per day from people wanting them to open in their area.
re: goodhealthgourmet
I precisely didn't want to read those things because I wanted to know what exactly the store was. Not so much what products do they carry because they may vary from one store to the next. And seasonally as has been pointed out.
I've got my answer and I guess it should come as no surprise that the thread is this long. TJ's seems to be a real hot button 'round here.
re: Davwud
The problem is that Trader Joe's IS the products they carry. Unlike Costco, where you know you'll have to buy in bulk to take advantage of good pricing, or Whole Foods, where you presume everything you buy is organic and you pay through the teeth for it, Trader Joe's is all about product. That's what they advertise. Try OUR brand of Cheerios; cheaper and better for you. Try OUR brand of chocolate; as good as the expensive stuff at nearly half the price. It makes it difficult to talk about Trader Joe's generically and why, I think, so many discussions about the store almost by default become discussions about their products.
re: Davwud
hope we've been helpful.
you gonna check it out?
if so, let us know what your thoughts are! ;-)
re: Chowrin
Absolutely gonna check it out. Sounds promising.
re: Davwud
gotcha. i was thinking more about the discussions regarding *why* people shop there (or don't) and what the experience is like, rather than the yea/nay or discontinued product threads...but i see you've arrived at [what i think is] the most useful conclusion...to just check it out for yourself!
re: goodhealthgourmet
I guess it boiled down to whether I made a point of going or waiting 'til the opportunity presented it's self. As it turns out, the answer is somewhere in between.
re: Davwud
I'm sure you've figured this out already but don't go in the first week or two. TJ does a good job of whetting people's appetite and they're mobbed when they first open.
The broadest comparison I can make is that Whole Foods is a place for people who like to cook from scratch, Trader Joe's for people who like to (mostly) buy things that are already made, i.e., packaged goods.
The things I really like at Trader Joe's are their English Breakfast teabags, which I use for iced tea, an extra-sharp cheddar I grate for grilled cheese, cage free eggs, and their Empire Kosher chicken. But I cook everything from scratch. Recently, I was put off by the fact that I couldn't buy dried beans there without some kind of flavoring kit..
re: Jay F
Funny you mention dried beans. I was looking for them last week and was really surprised they didn't have them. The place is just so idiosyncratic. And I agree 100% that it has far less appeal for those of us who cook from scratch. Although to say that Whole Foods is, is, in my opinion, not quite right either. My local WF seems to do more business in prepared/take-out foods than in fresh. Not surprising since the prepared foods section takes up at least 50% of the store.
I think the others posting here have covered it pretty well! I agree completely that the quality of their produce and meat varies widely from store to store. I was over there last week and they had no green beans or broccoli, so selection varies from week to week as well. I used to shop a lot more in TJs, but it is out of my way so I go there once in a while for speciality items or to satisfy a craving.
Last week we got some fantastic specialty joe-joes (their answer to oreos) - chocolate covered, peppermint filled dipped in dark chocolate, peanut butter filled, and ginger. o.m.g. so delish!
Go in, browse, take your time to check it all out. :)

BARTOW, Fla. (AP) - A jury began hearing testimony in the trial of a Polk City couple accused of animal cruelty in the single largest animal seizure case in Sheriff's Office history.
The Lakeland Ledger (http://bit.ly/ZXEwB6) reports that the trial continued Wednesday.
Prosecutors say Charles and Diane O'Malley were trying to care for hundreds of unwanted dogs at their home, but their conduct became criminal when the task proved too much for them.
During opening statements, prosecutors told jurors that deputies and animal control officers responded to an anonymous tip on May 26, 2010, and found 261 dogs living in poor conditions.
Their lawyer says the dogs weren't mistreated and that prosecutors retreated from the original charges because deputies failed to conduct a proper investigation.
