i got into a car accident, fast lane on the highway, everything was going smoothly, all of a sudden the vehicle slammed its break, i slammed mine, i slid into him, barely any damage, i would have been able to pull off to the left for the shoulder, but there was no shoulder on this part of the highway. Cop showed up 20 mins later and gave me a following too close ticket. Im not disputing the accident, but i dont believe i am guilty of the charge issued - judging by the definition of following to close. i have my first appearance tomorrow and would like to get the best deal or it taken away. If i cant get it taken away, i would like all my demerits to be taken away. What can i bring up in order to fight it and have a good chance?
This site is for United States law. Look for a lawyer in Ontario.
Ask a lawyer in Ontario, not in NY or any other state in USA
Look for a lawyer in Ontario Canada to help you out. Although there may not be too much difference in the law, generally, you have a duty to see what has to be seen on a highway and to maitain a safe distance. The fact that you slammed into the back of a person's vehicle is enough to say that you were following too closely and worse not paying attention.
Be weary of any possible lawsuit that may be commenced by the other driver. If one starts, you will like be liable because you struck the other person in the rear
I suggest you ask a lawyer in Ontario if the officer is able to issue a ticket for offense he did not personally observe .

Heartbreak A Stranger Lyrics - Bob Mould
Days come, days go by
So it matters, so you say
But it's all coming back in a way
And nothing will ever change
The words exchanged for revenge inside
You know these things take time
Now and then, these words
Make me laugh so powerful
Going through several lies
They've never been so true
I know that I'm used to time
You know what it is, don't you?
Some words make us all cry
It's so talented
If anybody could read my mind
And share with me these thoughts
Of all the enemies left behind
And friends that time forgot
Pretending nothing could ever faze you
Well, some things never change
Tell me why do these words ring home
How can you heartbreak a stranger?
Days come, days go by
So it matters, so you say
But it's all coming back in a way
And everyone knows a way
And everybody runs away
From somebody who cries

The European Patent Office (EPO) has published a new product that builds directly on and extends the Patent Teaching Kit. Developed in co-operation with the Office for Harmonization in the Internal Market (OHIM), the IP Teaching Kit is a much more extensive set of teaching materials that covers all kinds of intellectual property.
IP Basics, the first part of the kit, has just been released and provides the tools to give students from a whole range of different levels and backgrounds lectures and presentations on not only patents, copyright, trade marks and designs, but also smaller areas such as utility models and geographical indications.
The remaining two parts of the kit, IP Advanced and IP Search Tools, will be published in the coming months.
If you would like to learn more about IP Basics, visit the EPO website at www.epo.org/teaching-kithttp://www.epo.org/teaching-kits, where you can download the kit in English, French or German.

We are pleased to inform you that the European IPR Helpdesk has updated its Non-Disclosure Agreements (NDAs) that can now be used independently of the kind of negotiations that you enter into, both in the context of EU-funded projects and for international partnerships.
In addition to that, a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) for Horizon 2020 has been created. Alongside the one already available for FP7, the new document reflects the few changes brought by the new Horizon 2020 rules.
All these templates can be found and freely downloaded in the European IPR Helpdesk online library, under useful documents.
The "IP Key" project is the European Commission's financial vehicle for the EU-China New Intellectual Property Cooperation, an agreement between the EU and China. IP Key is a three-year project, ending in 2016, implemented by the Office for Harmonisation in the Internal Market (OHIM) in partnership with the European Patent Office (EPO). Its aim is to facilitate development of an IP framework in China for EU businesses that is increasingly effective, fair, transparent, and otherwise based upon international best practices.
This activity aims to gather questions from European businesses, government bodies, and other European institutions on the workings of the Chinese utility model system. The purpose of this exchange is: (1) to provide European stakeholders clarity on the workings of China's utility model system; (2) use this clarity to inform discussions on utility model patent quality; and (3) create an opportunity to let the Chinese government learn more about the utility model systems in Europe, and through this set the foundation for best-practices sharing at the SIPO-IP Key utility model patent seminar to be held in May 2014.
All questions will be collated and combined into one document, with askers' names remaining anonymous, and sent by IP Key to SIPO (by early April 2014). SIPO's answers, which IP Key will request to be as detailed as possible, will be returned to those participating in the questionnaire drafting (in late April 2014). Likewise, SIPO is compiling a questionnaire on the workings of the utility model systems in different EU Member States which will be answered and returned to SIPO.
To complete the questionnaire,please click here. The deadline for submission is 18:00, 26th February.

IP Marketplace is managed by the Danish Patent and Trademark Office and is an online display window where you can look for trading partners and other kinds of partnership. IP Marketplace is free of charge for both buyers and sellers.
At IP Marketplace you can put your patents, patent applications, utility models, design and trade marks - so-called IP rights - up for sale or out-licensing. You can also use IP Marketplace when searching for IP rights to buy or in-license, or when you are looking for partners for innovation projects that build on patentable knowledge.
You can access IP Marketplace here.
We are pleased to inform you that the European IPR Helpdesk has released a new fact sheet on the "Exploitation channels for public research results".
This fact sheet has the aim to present tools, tips and practices for public research organisations (PROs) to convert the knowledge resulting from publicly funded research activities into socio-economic benefits. This can be achieved in different ways, not only through direct commercialisation tools, but also via collaborative or contract research conducted in co-operation with or commissioned by the industry. In so doing, the dissemination and transfer of the generated knowledge to the market would therefore be ensured, with the objective of creating products and services to enhance social welfare.
OpenAIRE, an EU project whose aim is to support the implementation of Open Access in Europe, has recently released a study examining the legal requirements for different kinds of usage of research data in an open access e-infrastructure.
The existing legal framework regarding potentially relevant intellectual property (IP) rights is analysed from the general European perspective as well as from that of selected EU Member States. Various examples and usage scenarios are used to explain the scope of protection of the potentially relevant IP rights. In addition different licence models are analysed in order to identify the licence that is best suited to the aim of open access.
For further information, please click here; the full-text of the book is available free here.
The Creative Commons initiative is not incompatible with copyright and on the contrary is based on the existence of copyright protection, since it allows the work to be licensed to others interested in using the material.
Take a look at this new case study to see how the use of Creative Commons licences can be beneficial for dissemination of project results, without undermining legal protection.
This fact sheet, as a part of the series on "Commercialising IP", deals with franchising. According to the statistics of the European Franchise Federation, in 2009 the EU-17 Member States had more than 10,000 franchise brands, 10.8% of which represented the share of employment among small and medium sized-enterprises (SMEs). Franchising has been increasingly used by European companies and individuals as a route for exploitation of intangibles and expansion of their business to other territories and countries. This fact sheet will therefore help you understand what franchising is and particularly why it is an attractive business option, whether you are a potential Franchisor or Franchisee. Moreover, you will find in this document information on the legal environment in Europe and a checklist of the main steps to take when establishing a franchising partnership.
Last week the World Intellectual Property Organisation (WIPO) launched a new marketplace for environmentally friendly technologies: the WIPO GREEN.
According to WIPO, this free-of-charge database:

1. Give yourself plenty of time. You don't
want to have to rush through your photos because you are running late
for the big dance. Make sure you start to prep several hours ahead of
time to ensure you will have ample time to take great shots.
2. While you're prepping, make sure to
skip any foundation that contains SPF. The titanium dioxide found in
SPF will actually reflect light away from your face--making you
appear very washed out in photos. Eek!
3. When Mom and Dad (and Grandma and your
neighbors and everyone else on your block) are snapping pics at the
house, be sure to carefully pick out your background. Try taking
photos in a lush garden or someplace with lots of flowers or
4. Be sure you're in a place where there
is a good deal of bright light. Natural light will make the colors of
your dress appear most true in your photos.
5. Maintain good posture: Lengthen your
neck, pull your shoulders back and tuck in your tummy just a bit.
Spend a bit of time practicing in the mirror before the big day.
6. We're big fans of standing at an
angle to the camera, which makes your body appear more slender. Just
don't hide your entire dress! Make sure the photographer can still
see both hips.
7. Get together with different groups of
friends. You are going to want pictures of yourself with the people
you spent your fabulous prom night with.
8. Nix the awkwardness and don't be
afraid to get close to your cutie. You and your date will be dancing
the night away and having a great time. Try to look like you like
each other in the photos (even if you're just friends!).
9. Smile! This is a happy day and you are
going to have a great time. Relax, and let your smile be genuine and
heartfelt. You don't want to look back at the pictures years later
and wonder why your grin looked so forced.

UNC Announces Stilman White Has Returned to the Team
Via UNC Athletic Communications: CHAPEL HILL – Stilman White, who started at point guard for the University of North Carolina in a pair of NCAA regional games in 2012, is returning to school and the men's basketball team.

And by badly, I mean it was impossible to get a feel for the kid. It was into this moment...

Female warrior using a bow
Sponsor's note: This YKTTW will not be launched. It currently serves as a starting point for a general reworking of The Archer. This is split off from the Tomboys Know Archery YKTTW. Rolling Updates. Will need Bow Women redirect.
Trope descriptionWant an Action Girl in the story, but not too much of an action girl? Enter the Bow Woman. The bow seems like a more graceful and elegant weapon than the sword or the spear, and it keeps the user safely away from the enemy and having to get her hands dirty -- and it opens the possibility of having The Hero rescue the bowwoman if the enemy manages to get close. In fictional contexts where warfare is expected, this is one of the more common weapons for women to be trained at. In other environments, wanting to learn to use a bow is one way to show that a woman is a Spirited Young Lady or Tomboy, especially if the people around her disapproves. While technically all women using bows will fit into this trope, the use of it has changed in modern times. The perceived need for action girls or The Chick in stories, while still keeping them secondary to the men, is part of what drives the current usage. Thus mythological characters like Artemis or the Amazons do not fit very well into the modern use of the trope. Subtrope of The Archer and a part of Guys Smash, Girls Shoot. Often an Action Girl, but as noted this is often a way to put limits on "action" and emphasise "girl". One of the common variations of a Lady of War.

The $279.5 million Omaha lead contamination cleanup that began in 1999 is nearly complete, and the Environmental Protection Agency is ready to begin declaring some properties lead-free.
The EPA said Tuesday that it is proposing listing 1,154 of the 11,425 properties in Omaha's superfund site as completely cleaned up.
EPA officials say less than 2 percent of the eastern Omaha children tested today have elevated lead levels. Before the cleanup, nearly 33 percent had elevated lead levels.
The soil in more than 10,000 Omaha yards has been replaced to clean up lean contamination that the EPA says came from a lead smelter that operated in Omaha for more than a century.
The EPA also stabilized the paint on more than 5,000 homes and set up educational programs on lead dangers.

- INCREDIBLE service & GREAT foodOpenTable Diner Since 2005VIPDined on 11/9/2014I enjoyed a pre-theater dinner here months ago and though of it to host a large family celebration on a Sunday afternoon. What a great decision. The manager was extremely responsive and helpful - even ordering special linens - and our wait staff absolutely could NOT have been better, Food was outstanding and very fresh: mouth wateringly delectable sea bass salad, subtle and spicy garlic prawns, the infamous bocce ball meatballs. Great for a small party of 8-12. No private rooms but they cater and have lots of experience with large groups. You can order family style meals if you like. Beautiful bar AND outdoor patio. The perfect balance between being treated like you're a guest in a friend's home AND at an elegant restaurant.Special Features:
- TerribleOpenTable Diner Since 2006Dined on 11/8/2014Terrible! Food tasted like it came from a jar/can. Prices were ridiculous, especially the wine list. Waste of my very rare dinner out.
- Expensive wine listMaxfoodieDined on 11/7/2014The restaurant is a strange mix: advertises itself as a pizza place but the wine list has very few moderately priced wines. For a restaurant with the kind wine list they offer, they should have a greater variety of entrees. Very little here for someone who is watching her carbs.
- Highly recommend this place......OpenTable Diner Since 2011Dined on 11/6/2014Great menu, food and service w/nice decor. Will return for sure!Special Features:
- Don't botherOpenTable Diner Since 2008Dined on 11/1/2014Poor neighborhood atmosphere. Across an alley from a 7-11. Next to a Starbucks. We parked next to a dumpster. Noisy. Hard to hear a conversation. Limited menu. Extremely expensive wine list for standard wines. Cork in the glass. Would not consider preparing vegetables without onions. We left before ordering.
- TravelledtheworldTraveltheworldVIPDined on 11/1/2014We love this "hidden gem" , probably should not write a review , want it to remain as it is!! Great atmosphere, delicious food and wonderful service, can't say more. We travel a lot and love to come home to this special neighborhood place.Special Features:
- thank youredhead65Dined on 10/26/2014We enjoyed our dinner at Cucina Venti so very much. We were celebrating our daughter's birthday and her 3 year old so was with us. They accommodated him with grace. We had the grilled lamb chops and my husband had the steak. They changed out the rice for mashed potatoes. The fella who suggested our wine made an excellent choice for us. It was a E16 Pinot Noir. We love going to this restaurant because it is so reliable, food is great, and the service is not intrusive.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.

- Service was amazing!widgetVIPDined on 10/13/2014The food was great, and the bar scene was quite creative. Even more impressive: I was coming in for a group special occasion. They bent over backwards to make sure my group was happy. I was quite appreciative as it led to a very special dinner. Easy walk to the Google campus for those catching the shuttle ;-)Special Features:
- Cucina Venti is fantasticcarolVIPDined on 10/10/2014We go for dinner and then to the movie which is across the street. My husband likes the pizza and I like the specials. I had the pumpkin special with 3 generous slices of roasted pork. Included was a small hollowed out cooked pumpkin, a beautiful presentation, with pumpkin rosato for $19. The beet salad was great too. The warm bread is always a treat. The wait staff is very friendly and efficient. This is a place we like to introduce to friends because it is special and different. I left my credit card by mistake and of course they secured it for my return.Special Features:
- Hidden gemZebragirlVIPDined on 10/4/2014I love the secret location for such a fabulous restaurant. It's in a strip mall that is nothing special but the ambiance when you walk in takes you away and transports you to a lovely little dining spot. A great place to grab a real meal before or after a movie as the theatre is across the street.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- AnneAnneDined on 10/3/2014Cucina Venti is a surprise find off Shoreline in the business park on the Moffett Field side of 101. Excellent personal pizza! Delicious pasta! Very good filet mignon if you want to splurge. I come here with friends and all four of us love it! Perfect for dinner before seeing a play at the Pear Theatre or before or after a movie at Shoreline.Special Features:
- OpenTable Diner Since 2006Dined on 9/27/2014Fabulous! Wonderful, wonderful food here...many items on menu, good service!Special Features:
- A FindStentorDined on 9/19/2014I needed to find a place for a business dinner in Mt View where one of the party needed to catch an SFO flight. CV is convenient to 101, and the food was great. Loved the octopus salad. Took a little effort to find, but worth it.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- blue dogbigBDined on 9/17/2014Needed a quick Mt View review for dinner with friends for out of town near the area. Did not need to be overly foodie but good. Saw 4 plus star rating on Open Table ok give it a try. Friendly people, sat outside next to expressway but nice evening. Service fairly attentive and cordial. Food was good but not "foodie" which I might have expected to some modest degree at the Open Table rating level. 2 matinis, 2 apptizers, 2 glasses of wine, three entrees, 1 salad. Food "B" nothing wrong with it but no 'wow" factor on anything. $175 included 20% tip.Special Features:
- Fast service when you need itOpenTable Diner Since 2007Dined on 9/12/2014We were held up it traffic getting to the restaurant and needed to make a play at the Pear Theater down the street. The staff at Cucina Venti understood the problem without us having to say a thing. The service was excellent, the food delicious, and we made our play.Special Features:
- something for everyoneOpenTable Diner Since 2005VIPDined on 9/11/2014we brought a new friend to dinner this night and we loved sitting outside in the front patio...great night, pleasant service and food choices for all. great salads and tasty warm-baked bread. the short ribs are a favorite! we didn't stay for dessert this night but will next time, for there will be a next time...with more friends!Special Features:

I also highly recommend the Bocce Meatballs- wonderful!!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- great for groupsOpenTable Diner Since 2005VIPDined on 8/13/2014we had a party of 20-22 for lunch and the staff was great - the food was served so quickly, that it made the most of our busy work day luncheon celebration! food was great on all levels. did i say the staff was wonderful??? we LOVE coming here for dinner onesies, twosies and groups of 20! great variety of food choices for all palates and requirements - flexible too. one of our company faves!Special Features:
- Great food, great serviceMiranda2showDined on 8/9/2014We were a party of 4 for dinner. Food was great, and so was the service. I really love the friendly atmosphere, white lights and outside tables. In a hurry up world, I felt like we were not rushed and made to feel welcome and attended to. I am taking my boss to lunch there today!Special Features:
- Great food, hiccups with serviceDragonflydebDined on 8/2/2014We ate at Cucina Venti for the second time before a concert at Shoreline. There were 4 of us, & it was early so we were eating a bit light. My hubby & I split a greek salad and a pizza. One friend ordered an entree salad & a bowl of soup, the other a green salad & the short ribs. We were asked if we wanted the salads to come out first, & we said yes. Our friends received their salads, but we did not get ours until the pizza came out. The short ribs came out before our friend had a chance to eat her salad. We talked to our waiter (who was wonderful) and he said that he did ask for it to be timed differently, but sometimes the kitchen gets busy and doesn't read the order. In summary, the food was good, but the experience wasn't as good.Special Features:
- The following 108 reviews are from the Cucina Venti reviews archive.
- Great spotwestcoastfoodieDined on 7/27/2014Everything was great - food, service, value- we will return. Sit outside - it's really noisy insideSpecial Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Good service and a good mealSteveDined on 7/16/2014Kinda tucked away in a corner of a bustling strip center, we were fooled by the location thinking we ran across a simple pizzeria. How mistaken we were. The menu was broad enough to satisfy our party of 12 without one person ordering what I'm sure was probably very good pizza! Wine list was adequate and our servers attentive. Don't plan on making it a late night here though, they started tabling chairs and mopping floors before we were ready to leave....obviously they close early. Overall, very enjoyable.Special Features:

Fettucine carbonara must have been a recipe that I have never tried before. Lots of mushrooms, chunks of fresh tomatoes, kind of soupy and the pancetta tasted like it had been parboiled with very little taste. The pasta was fresh and good. Caesar salad was mix your own. Plate came with chunks of lettuce and croutons with sauce on the side. We extra ordered some anchovies. Not memorable.

Hello Everyone,
Are there any ISP`s that have pledged not to introduce traffic shaping / traffic filtering. I am currently with Tiscali which has P2P traffic shaping and is generaly slow.
I don`t mind paying extra and would like true unlimited downloads. It has to be ADSL, a static ip would be nice too.
What ISP`s are you using ? How do you find them ? do they use traffic shapping ?

If you're looking for a unique and antique treasure, it's time to visit The Historic Carousel at Lighthouse Point Park located on the east side of the New Haven Harbor in the community of Morris Cove.
Built in 1916 the carousel has 72 figures mounted on a 60 foot platform. Decorating the carousel are original oil paintings of New Haven local scenery along with mermaids, trains, lighthouses, sailboats and beveled mirrors.
During the 1920's there were more than 10,000 such carousels in existence but today the Lighthouse Park Carousel is less than one of a hundred still in operation.
The highlight of the day for many years on a visit to Lighthouse Park was to ride the carousel. Over the years hurricanes and deterioration from it's location on the water took its toll on the carousel and the pavilion causing the building to be boarded up and closed down in 1977.
A group of citizens was appointed by the Mayor of New Haven in 1980 to come up with ways to restore the carousel. Through the dedication and commitment of many volunterrs who spent hours cleaning, painting and scraping along with an "Adopt "A Horse" prgoram that was developed to help pay for the restoration and funds allocated by the City of New Haven to rehabilitate the pavilion the carousel was brought back to life. In 1983 the Lighthouse Point Carousel was added to the National Register of Historic Places.
The 5,000 square foot pavilion that is home to the carousel is available for rental and the perfect spot for weddings, banquets and private functions with its magnificent views of Long Island Sound and the New Haven Harbor.
Hours of operation during the summer season (Memorial Day to Labor Day) are:
Saturday and Sunday from 1:00 pm to 4:00 pm.
Cost: 50 cents
There is a $10 parking fee for non-residents between Memorial Day and Labor Day.
Private rentals are available and group reservations are accepted.
For more information call 203-946-8327.
Take a ride today and enjoy a little bit of history and fantasy on the Lighthouse Point Carousel.

Operations personnel at many energy companies feel the pressure of achieving compliance with the NERC CIP standards. Some worry that they are not aware of the problems and security incidents that...
Better Safe Than Compliant
Protecting the smart grid requires a broader strategy.
result of secure two-way data flow throughout a system of meters, switches, gateways, SCADA/EMS control centers, databases and energy sources, the entire system must be viewed holistically and the data must be protected from the meter to the utility and back. In addition, utilities and regulators will need to take a new holistic view of resource allocation and performance expectations, balancing—or allowing the market to balance—benefits, risks and costs.
As Gartner Research observed in its April 2010 report The Myth of Smart Grid Security , "There is no such thing as perfect security, and residual risk will always be an issue. Utilities need to assess the risks and make good decisions over which controls are reasonable and appropriate to their situation." Of course, this approach might be problematic with the regulators. However, simple legislation and adding more rules might not help fill the gap to maintain security of the transmission and distribution grids. Therefore, there needs to be a balance between the accountability on which regulatory systems rely and the flexibility needed to respond to changing risks.
The weakest link in this chain will be different in every system and will change from day to day. Each link could yield a potential vulnerability to allow penetration by outsiders and chances of damaging mistakes by employees. But both cyber- and physical security vigilance across this system will be the price for the immense opportunities of real-time pricing, load and consumption management, cost savings, improved environmental impact, and more effective distributed power integration.
The industry has taken productive initial steps to increase cyber security vigilance with NERC CIP mandates—which don't directly address all smart grid deployments because of the NERC CIP focus on the bulk electric system. These actions have included participation in the NERC Smart Grid Task Force, the NIST Smart Grid Cyber Security Working Group, and GridWise, to name a few.
But in the intensive next phases of work to be done to protect the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of the smart grid's two-way data streams, the industry needs to consider a risk-based, holistic security approach that's more consistent with major global standards, such as ISO27001 and NIST 800-39, which are used across many industries worldwide.
Work is underway on that front. "NERC recognizes that there needs to be additional emphasis on identifying critical assets and increasing the focus on risk-based approaches to security," observes Mark Weatherford, NERC vice president and chief security officer. "NERC, DOE, NIST and selected utilities are currently working together in a public-private collaboration to develop cyber security risk management guidelines that provide a consistent, repeatable, and adaptable process for the entire electricity sector. These voluntary guidelines sit on top of current CIP standards and will enable organizations to proactively manage risk."
Tiered Defense & Tools
In implementation, utility smart grid deployments must be able to contend with potential threats on three levels: administrative, physical and logical security. In assuring the adequacy and currency of implementation, utilities and regulators must develop an expanded focus with a range of evaluation and oversight requirements that go beyond the current NERC


text: Democrats Increasingly Calling Opponents 'Un-American' Print article Send a Tip by Warner Todd Huston 14 Apr 2014 post a comment The Hill columnist Niall Stanage reports that Democrats have been calling conservatives and Republicans "un-American" in their political debate. Stanage claims that this habit of attacking others' patriotism is "mainly a weapon of the right," but that liberals are now also using the tactic. In his piece, Stanage presents some history on use of the word "un-American" and its companion "anti-American" tracing it all the way back to Thomas Jefferson who was considered "un-American" for supporting France over England in the days of our Quasi-War with France. But even earlier than that, both John Adams and George Washington were sometimes labeled as an enemy to the country, Adams for being too enamored of the trappings of the monarchy and Washington for his use of the military against American citizens during the Whiskey Rebellion. Of course, the country was essentially founded on the idea of being "un" something. The founders felt that they were being more British than the British and that the mother country was being the "uns." Stanage notes that in recent years several Republicans have used the epithet. Rep. Michele Bachmann, New Hampshire Governor John Sununu, and Sarah Palin have all indulged the accusation he writes. He also says that use of the accusation typically invokes the anti-communist campaign of Senator Joseph McCarthy. But The Hill columnist then reports that President Obama, Democrat Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid, and Rep. Elijah Cummings (D-Md.) have all recently began calling their political opponents un-America. While those who are right of center usually use the term to mean that opponents are violating American first principles, Stanage points out that liberals are using the term to attack "the rich." Where the term once had a mostly "geo-political" tone to it, liberals have given it a populist, anti-capitalist flavor with the term being applied to "the rich" by those on the left. Stanage quotes one university professor, though, who shows a total inability to understand what conservatives mean when they say it is possible to be un-American. "You have the right to any thought," said Tobe Berkovitz, a communications professor at Boston University. "This country is the marketplace of ideas. So if you want to be a communist, or a socialist, or a Nazi then--as long as you don't want to violently overthrow the United States--that should be your right." The prof conflates two things, here. No conservative is saying that Americans don't have the right to be a communist. What conservatives are saying is that it is un-American to be a communist, that it is an essential violation of American principles, not that it shouldn't be "allowed." Stanage ends his piece pointing out that the term isn't going away any times soon. "It is, after all, almost as old as the nation itself," he wrote.

Pet Peeve: "Bisque"
- m
- Mitzimouse Jan 6, 2009 06:32 PM
Does this bug anyone else?
I hate when I go into a restaurant and I see items such as "Tomato Bisque" or "Squash Bisque" listed. Being such a food bioche, I politely say to the server, "Oh, so there's shellfish in it?" "No," they reply. "It's a vegetable cream soup." Since when did everything become a "bisque"? By definition, doesn't a bisque have a shellfish base? Have I overstepped my food arrogance?
Look forward to thought!
From Wikipedia: "Bisque is also sometimes used to refer to cream-based soups that do not contain seafood, in which the ingredients are pureed or processed in a food processor or a food mill. Common varieties include tomato, mushroom, and squash bisque."
You are a traditionalist. IMHO a bisque can refer to cream based soups without seafood. As long as it's cream based and the ingredients are pureed. I understand your side because traditionally a bisque contains crustaceans. But mushroom bisque sounds so much more appetizing than cream of mushroom soup.
re: torontoboy
like some of you have said, it's all about marketing, selling a dish. Slap "bisque" on there because it sounds fancy.....
I agree with mitzimouse.
Mitzimouse, I'm in full agreement with you on this one. And, after my 'feta' rant on another thread, I'm just left frustrated that traditionalists seem to be a dying breed...
according to Penguin Companion to Food, a bisque is "a rich soup of creamy consistency, especially of crayfish or lobster... an earlier use (was) for soups of game birds, (and) has fallen into desuetude". so strictly speaking I would have interpreted bisque to mean any type of creamy soup.
Larousse Gastronomique states the original term "bisque" was used to describe a highly spiced dish of boiled meat or game (pigeons or quails) garnished with crayfish or cheese croutes, and was not until the 17th century that crayfiish became the principal ingredient. The word is now used imprecisely for several pink pureed soups.
so strictly speaking, if one is a true "traditionalist", we would be looking for a Spanish spiced dish consisting of boiled meat or game from the Spanish province of Vizcaya!
perhaps we're getting a little technical here, i suspect most diners would interpret a "mushroom bisque" as a nice creamy mushroom soup rather than some weird crayfish mushroom soup. like "lobster cappucino" you wouldn't expect any espresso in a foamed up lobster soup!
re: doctorandchef
Yes. Language evolves over time, especially when loanwords are considered!
re: doctorandchef
Nice Doctor! you just taught me something I appreciate your effort.
re: mpjmph
The color "bisque" comes from bisque ware ceramics, not the food. It's a light cream color with a tinge of gray. Some would say a light beige.
As for the culinary bisque, yes, it absolutely unequivocally *IS* a flavor base of shellfish and mirepoix.
Yes, I am a traditionalist. I like to think the reason is primarily because communication of ideas is sooooooo much easier when everyone understands that red is red, hot is hot, and bisque is shellfish. I can't help but freak when I see things like "Carrot Bisque" or "Confit of Eggplant" on a menu. Drives me nuts! I realise that "confit" and "confiture", very different things in the classical culinary sense, are being used interchangeably, but why not let the language retain clear meaning? I have no problem with a confiture of eggplant, but a confit of eggplant drives me up the wall. And from Thomas Keller, no less! Does a Confiture of Eggplant sound less delicious than Confit of Eggplant? Does a Tomato Veloute or even Cream of Tomato sound less delicious than Tomato Bisque? What if car mechanics and the auto industry in general started using "brake" and "accelerator" interchangeably? Wouldn't THAT be a mess!
Okay. I'm going to go back to my Curmudgeon Cave and spend some time trying to figure out where the hell Keller gets his eggplant fat to make eggplant confit. <curmudge><curmudge><curmudge>
re: doctorandchef
Lobster cappucino - that's priceless!
Oh, and I always love the "carpaccio" of beet, tomato, whatever, anything but the true thing, BEEF!!
re: Mitzimouse
Lobster cappuccino may be priceless, but as you can see, White Miso Clam Chowder Cappuccino costs $6. It's good, also. (Contains no coffee!)
re: small h
Yes, it does taste very good! ;D
re: Mitzimouse
We were recently served artichoke "cappucino" in Bogota...delicious and interesting presentation in cappucino cup.
re: Mitzimouse
I once saw "pineapple carpaccio" on a menu. It was, you got it, thin slices of pineapple, undoubtedly served with some sort of coulis. Arggg.
re: MaryishSally
Pineapple carpaccio is fairly common in Europe.
re: doctorandchef
It's thought by some that Bisque comes from a stew originally made around the Bay of Biscay, which is on the north Atlantic coast, so it would inevitably have been made from seafood originally. The Bay of Biscay runs right up from Spain into France, so food from that region it isn't necessarily Spanish only.
BBQ = grilled
Lox = smoked salmon
The imprecision of language is indeed irritating. I hate it mainly because you now have to explain your terms, where the conciseness of a specific, well-accepted definition used to be very handy. Now you have to say BBQ, you know, the real stuff, low and slow cooking over embers. Or Lox, you know, the real stuff, brined but not smoked. Or Bisque, you know, the real stuff, made from shellfish.
But it is actually very arrogant to try and fight these general misappropriations of terms. Language does that - you can't stop the rain, and it's arrogant to think you can fight it.
So I'm arrogant. Sue me.
re: applehome
BBQ spread to grilling a long time ago, at least in places other than the American South. It's only with the evangelizing by BBQ champions, TV hosts, and food columnists that there has been a partial return to that original meaning. Even that original meaning is somewhat debatable if you look at some of the drawings of BBQ as first seen by Spaniards - those show all kinds of critters laid out on racks high above a fire. Which is that closer to, grilling, or smoking in a steel behemoth? And how about Mexican barbacoa, pit 'steaming'? But then we've debated the true origins and meaning of BBQ many times before.
There are some parallels with 'bisque'. A particular usage at a specific time becomes codified, declared to be the true meaning. Dig further and you find that earlier usage wasn't quite so specific or that there were, and still are, regional variations. We had similar debates over the pronunciation of certain words, such as caramel.
re: applehome
yes, I know I'm 5 years late, but someone else resurrected this thread.
Lox = smoked salmon?
Lachs, pronounced Lox is merely the word for salmon in Germanic languages including Yiddish. Since the only way the poor inland eastern Europeans got salmon was preserved (via salting and/or smoking), lox became the name for the preserved fish. Once they came to the New World, Lox became the American English word for salted and or smoked salmon while the fresh fish was called salmon. My great grandparents and grandparents either ate lox or salmon that came out of a can. It was only my parents generation (born in the 1920s) that first ate fresh salmon in the NY area.
Just to add in more dictionary definitions, my Food Lover's Companion defines bisque as "A thick rich soup usually consisting of pureed seafood (sometimes fowl or vegetables) and cream."
I don't really eat seafood, so I guess the seafood connotation didn't stick with me. Tomato bisque doesn't bother me, and I expect something richer than a tomato soup.
re: cyberroo
That's a good parameter - it has to offer something richer or deeper than your regular cream soup. Maybe I can suck it up and live with that :-)
re: cyberroo
But in Louisiana a bisque is made with a roux, contains no dairy, and may or may not be pureed. It may be served with rice, but the rice is never pureed. And the only variations I'm familiar with are shrimp, crawfish, and crab.
re: maria lorraine
I just carted 50 lbs of books to my desk to look this up. I had always been taught that rice is the thickener in a bisque, as in tomato bisque, but not so.
Quoting from chapter and verse:
Larousse Gastronomique, 1961:
Nowadays this is the French name of a culinary preparation in the form of a purée, more particularly a purée of crayfish, or other shellfish, served as a thick soup. In the olden days it was something quite different. In the beginning of the nineteenth century, the word bisque was not exclusively applied to shellfish preparations...
Joy of Cooking, 1975:
About Thick Soups
If you like to attach a label to your creations, know that a purée is a soup that gets its major thickeining from the vegetable or other food put through a sieve or blender and has butter swirled into it at the very last moment. By omitting the butter or lessening the amount of it and adding cream or egg yolk, you get – guess what?—a cream soup! If that soup is on a shellfish base—and only if it is—you may call it a bisque. If you add both eggs and cream and a Velouté sauce, to a purée base, you achieve a velouté soup.
The Professional Chef, The Culinary Institute of America, 8th Edition, 2006:
Traditionally, bisques are based on crustaceans, such as shrimp, lobster or crayfish, and thickened with rice, rice flour or bread...Contemporary bisques may be based on ingredients other than crustaceans and rely on a vegetable purée or roux as the thickener. A vegetable-based bisque is prepared in the same manner as a purée soup. If the main vegetable does not contain enough starch to act as a thickener, rice, roux or a starchy vegetable like a potato may be used to provide additional thickness. When the vegetables are tender, the soup is puréed until smooth. Consequently, the distinction between a purée and a bisque is not always clear.
re: maria lorraine
I learned this same definition as an Apprentice
re: maria lorraine
There is no rice in Jacques Pepin's "Cold Tomato Bisque." He uses potato.
re: GH1618
Everything became a "bisque" about the same time everything became a "fajita." Fajita came from Spanish, faja, belt or little belt strip of meat, a cheaper cut of meat eaten by caballeros in northern Mexico and southern Texas, popularized at Ninfa's restaurant in Houston in the mid 70's. Now, everything is a "fajita," chicken, shrimp, and even veggie fajita, all oxymorons. Ironically, the fajita craze came about the same time as the "buffalo wing" phenomenon, now they are everywhere.
re: James Cristinian
Yeah. Just chop up some veggies, throw them in a ramekin, and you have a terrine.
I was thinking the same thing, today, after a series of events that paired bisque with something wholly non-crustacean. The straw that broke the camel's back, so to speak, was NYT's Melissa Clark's Tomato Bisque with Goat Cheese...lovely! But, what constitutes bisque?Am I wrong? Obviously, I need to exercise greater ego caution, but I am willing to be more flexible. Still, I rather despise the creative writing aspect of a menu. I like being enticed, seduced but...it's not like when I retried cherry tomatoes, oh so many years ago, and exclaimed with glee, "They're sweet!" Not at all like their earlier versions I became acquainted with - as garnish on my TV dinner "salad" - on my many flights, elsewhere, especially, home to Greece. So, my great departure to Greek salad (doesn't have lettuce, people!) was the addition of any sweet tomato, incuding cherry. Someone earlier mentioned feta...don't even get me started on that. My recommendation, buy goat feta or feta from Arahova. Forget the Franco-Bulgaro shepsmilk product. One is too pretentious, too creamy and too expensive (French). The other, not very complex, but, a decent replacement for feta, if you aren't picky. But creamy and spreadable (almost) and expensive...not what feta is.
Anyway, great discussion! I may have learned patience. :)
"Bisque: A thick, creamy, crustacean-based soup." (from The Elements of Cooking by Michael Ruhlman). He goes on to describe application of the term to a thick, creamy vegetable purée as a "slipshod extension." Jacques Pepin uses it in the slipshod sense, so while I prefer the traditional usage, it's difficult to insist that its use in "tomato bisque" by others in incorrect.
re: GH1618
All this time I understood there was a culinary connection between 'bisque' and 'Basgue' and 'Biscay'
re: monavano
You are correct.
Cream of tomato. Tomato bisque. Tomato velouté. You could make all 3 and put them side by side and they would likely look very similar. The difference is how they are thickened.

June 14, 1777- Flag Day!
The day of June 14th is historic because the Continental Congress passed an official resolution on June 14, 1777, "that the flag of the United States be 13 stripes alternate red and white; that the Union be 13 stars, white in a blue field, representing a new constellation." With this decree came no specific direction of how the stars were to be arranged. Indeed, such lack of direction led to several different designs of stars - some arranged in a circle, and some arranged in horizontal lines. Practically, it was up to the flag maker's discretion as to how the stars were to be arranged on the field of blue.

One year with the Salsa Fargo
I just posted a longish retrospective on my first year with the Salsa Fargo on MTBR. The thread should be visible even for non-members, if anyone is interested. Most of it has already been posted on this blog earlier, so I won't repost it.

Brooklyn rapper Lil' Kim has reportedly mended a few broken hearted fans after becoming a no-show at a London concert over the weekend by meeting them in-person.
Although it is not known how many fans came through, Kim reportedly invited a handful to her London hotel this week.
The rapper has now addressed the controversy on Twitter.com and she even arranged to meet disappointed fans at her London hotel. In a message posted on the website, she writes, "(It) was a very long day. There were things that happened that were out of my control. I love my U.K. fans. I want to do a big meet n greet (sic)… Meet me at my hotel lobby." Lil' Kim subsequently published a picture of her meeting with fans, alongside the caption, "Meet and greet in London. I love u (sic) guys!!! I love London. I'll be back soon!!!" (Contact Music)
According to reports, concert organizers blamed the no-show on Queen Bee.
The musician was due to make her only live appearance in the UK this summer at the London music festival, but her set was scrapped ten minutes before she was due to go on stage. "Lil' Kim did not turn up to her set on time," the organisers explained in a statement. "The festival had no other option but to maintain the scheduled running order to ensure the other main stage acts were not disrupted." (Digital Spy)
Kim's camp has already fired back to down the accusations.
However, Lil' Kim's publicist Lizzie Grubman has since denied the claims, as well as issuing an apology to fan on the star's behalf. "NEWS ALERT: Due to circumstances that were out of Kim's control, her performance at #LoveBox was canceled," Grubman tweeted. "Kim was on site and on time for her performance, and apologizes to all of her fans for the inconvenience." (Digital Spy)
A few days ago, Kim posted a teaser to her upcoming "Looks Like Money" music video.
Lil' Kim celebrated her birthday by debuting her new single "Looks Like Money," and now she's giving her fans a taste of the video. In the brief teaser, which she filmed off her computer screen, the Queen Bee struts in a busty white outfit and black ponytail in front of two luxury cars parked in a driveway. The flashy clip was shot at nighttime in her hometown of New York. (Rap-Up)

Richard Hamilton joins Bulls for three years, $15M
By Neil Hayes email@example.com December 14, 2011 9:54PM
Richard Hamilton's pedigree is unquestioned and includes nine years and an NBA championship with the Pistons. | M. Spencer Green~AP
Updated: January 16, 2012 10:35AM
Ash Park is the throbbing heart of working-class Coatesville, Pa., a steel town of 13,000 located 40 miles west of Philadelphia. In the heart of Ash Park, between the swimming pool and a tennis court and down two flights of stairs, are two basketball courts laid out back-to-back.
Those were the courts Richard "Rip" Hamilton graduated to when he grew tired of the court near his father's house a few blocks away. That's where he began developing the game that made the Bulls opt to sign the former NCAA
and NBA champion, hoping he can be the player who propels them past the Miami Heat and into the NBA Finals.
''The summer leagues are there," said Rick Hicks, Hamilton's longtime friend. ''The senior leagues are there. Everybody goes to Ash Park if they want to play basketball.''
An NBA source said Hamilton's deal with the Bulls, reached Wednesday night, is for three years and $15 million and not the two-year, $10 million deal previously reported, although the final year of the contract is a club option. Hamilton had narrowed his choices to three teams, but a chance to play with NBA MVP Derrick Rose made Chicago his top choice,
Hicks said.
Rose may be the quickest player in the league with the ball in his hands. Although now 33, Hamilton also has long had the reputation as a player who can run forever. At Ash Park, he used to showcase the skills that will soon be on display at the United Center. Play lasted deep into the night — and sometimes into the early morning.
''You get generation after generation of the same people,'' Hicks said when asked how Coatesville has remained so talent-rich. ''You get the grandfathers, the fathers and then the sons. The people who live in Coatesville stay in Coatesville, so the same genes keep coming back around again.''
Hamilton wanted to play basketball from a young age. He was in the right place. Coatesville was and still is a basketball town. It was where Hicks starred on the perennially tough Coatesville Area High team and where, as a first-year coach, he first noticed a scrawny, 6-3 freshman during high school tryouts.
''His hand-and-eye coordination and his basketball IQ were unbelievable,'' Hicks said. ''He was throwing bounce passes from halfcourt. He could shoot the three, backdoor passes. It was like, he's ready.''
Then came the memorable showdowns with nearby Lower Merion and its star, Kobe Bryant. In the three high school games the two future NBA All-Stars played against each other — games Hamilton would later say brought out the best in him — Bryant averaged 25 points, Hamilton 22.
From there, his story becomes more familar. He was named the MVP of the Final Four when he led Connecticut to a national championship in 1999. He was a key member of the 2004 Detroit Pistons NBA championship team.
Hicks, who works out with Hamilton every summer and talks to him every day, said he's in great shape and has plenty left to help the Bulls.
''You're not going to find too many 33-year-olds in the same shape as him,'' Hicks said. ''The last two years, he started working out with a personal trainer and is at a whole different level of shape than when he was younger.
''He'll be perfect with that team because he passes the ball well and he's a team player. He's a very personable guy, and he loves the sport. He'll do whatever it takes.''

In autocommit mode (the InnoDB default behavior), MySQL does a commit after each SQL statement that was executed without errors. That makes it impossible to roll back an committed statement. When we start a new transaction, the autocommit mode is disabled implicitly by MySQL and enabled again once we commit the transaction:
START TRANSACTION; -- ... -- add all insert & update statements here -- to save the received order -- ... -- on success: COMMIT; -- in case of failure: ROLLBACK;
InnoDB supports a feature called savepoints. A savepoints makes partial rollbacks of a transaction possible:
START TRANSACTION; -- -- add all insert & update statements here -- to save the received order -- -- in case something went wrong: ROLLBACK; -- otherwise set a savepoint called "order_added" SAVEPOINT order_added; -- -- add a success message somewhere: -- insert into logging values (123, 'no errors occured') -- -- -- execute other statements... -- in case of problems, rollback to savepoint: -- ROLLBACK TO SAVEPOINT order_added; -- -- the success message is not logged, -- but the order was saved -- -- on success: COMMIT;
When writing InnoDB transactions, it's important to keep in mind that there are several statements that cause InnoDB to commit the current transaction. Afterwards, a new transaction is started automatically. Here are a few of them, for a more complete list see the "additional information" section below:
Additionally important: If you don't commit a transaction that you have started using START TRANSACTION before you close the connection, InnoDB performs a implicit rollback.
Since this example is just a introduction, make sure to take a look at the useful information about InnoDB and transactions in the MySQL documentation:
We just came across such a documentation, a very detailed explanation of SQL join types. We felt that we have to share this with our readers. It's a very nice follow up reading for everybody who's currently learning about MySQL joins. Beside many interesting facts you'll find probably the most interesting visualisation of joined tables we've ever seen as well as a visualized classification schemes for SQL joins.
There are different classification schemes and different criteria according to what joins are classified. As a result there is a bit mess in the process of understanding them. I haven't found a nice scheme or even textual description how each one of various classification schemes and join types relates to other. In the following Meta model there is one possible variant of that, however theoreticians probably would break lances around other possible classification schemes. - SQL join types
The site is approx. 1,5 years old and it grew slowly. The first few month nothing really happened, then people somehow started to link to us , people on stackoverflow.com started to reference us and things like that. To me, this looks really organic. However, the traffic dropped overnight from approx. 1500 unique visitors per day to approx. 300 unique visitors.
If this update works to fight again spammy sites in the organic results, I'm fine with it. Even though I have no idea why Google penalized us (no message in webmaster tools or the like), it looks like it makes some form of "reverse SEO" possible: Instead of focussing on improving your own search engine ranking that much to outperform the competition, simply attack the competition by whatever Google now obviously doesn't tolerate any more.
Honestly, do you as a reader thing the MySQL Join Tutorials are spam? Is it "valuable content" as it's called by Google? A lot of people who commented on the posts seem to be happy about them.
We're open to new ideas! What would you love to see as a tutorial as well? What don't you like about our current tutorials. Any feedback is more than welcome.
Thank you very much, Jan

Who Would You Like to Thank?
Ron Peterson
I admire the social worker who helps a family place their loved one in an assisted living facility; the chaplain who gives a patient peace near the end of life; the executive who fights for the tools her staff needs to best do their work; the employee who walks a lost patient to his destination and the lawyers who wade through the details of our business decisions and contracts.
I see the housekeeper who rushes to wipe up a spill so no one will accidentally fall; the medical student who asks me to intercede in an insurance dilemma that's stalling a patient's surgery; the facility worker who coaxes an out-of-date elevator back to life; the chef who comes up with a new dish that puts a smile on a patient's face; the surgeon who agrees to pro bono treatment of a child from a foreign country, and the anesthesiologist and rehab specialist who also sign on to help.
I know about the assistant who goes out of his way to ease the burden for his hardworking boss; the patient accounts coordinator who walks a frustrated patient and spouse through their complex medical bills; the X-ray technician who gently maneuvers a patient in pain; the oncologist who gives hope and life to a patient who had been told that medicine had nothing more to offer; and the parking attendant whose quick thinking averts an accident in our garage.
These are the people I would like to thank—the people who have made my career so abundantly rich and who make Johns Hopkins such a miraculous place to work.

Apple has been found guilty of infringing patents held by a licensing firm owned in part by Nokia and Sony.
A jury in the Delaware US District Court ruled that Apple's iPhone violated three patents held by MobileMedia Ideas LLC, a US patent-holding firm which specialises in the smartphone handset space.
According to MobileMedia, the jury found that the Apple iPhone violated patents related to mobile phone cameras, call handling and call rejection. No word on damages or a potential appeal was given.
"MobileMedia Ideas is pleased that the jury confirmed Apple's iPhones use our patented technology," said MobileMedia chief executive Larry Horn.
"MobileMedia Ideas' objective is to make these important technologies and others used in mobile phone and other portable devices widely available. We welcome Apple and others to enter into licences for the use of these technologies."
The case is one of several MobileMedia is currently pursuing against big name smartphone manufacturers. The company said that it has filed similar suits against Research in Motion and HTC.
Apple is no stranger to patent litigation. The company has spent much of the year pursuing infringement cases against a number of Android handset makers, including Samsung and Motorola Mobility, around the world.
Though Apple has won a number of rulings, the company has also found itself receiving countersuits from Samsung and others.
Shaun Nichols is the US correspondent for V3.co.uk. He has been with the company since 2006, originally joining as a news intern at the site's San Francisco offices.
