Roasting to the rescue. Well, under-roasting so that the broccolini is cooked but still a bit crunchy. Al dente broccolini, if you will. It kinda-sorta worked ... the broccolini was delicious straight from the oven but reheating still did some damage.
Easy Lemony Roasted Broccolini
Yield: 2 servingsPrep Time: 00 hrs. 05 mins.
Cook time: 00 hrs. 15 mins.
Total time: 20 mins.
- 15± fresh broccolini stems, washed and trimmed
- 2 cloves garlic, pressed
- Olive oil, as needed
- 1 lemon, zested
- Salt and pepper, as needed
- Preheat oven to 400°F.
- Spread broccolini on large jelly roll pan and toss with olive oil, salt, pepper, garlic, and lemon zest.
- Roast for approximately 15 minutes or until stems are crisp-tender and tops are slightly browned.
- Remove from oven and allow to cool. When reheated and ready to serve, sprinkle with a little lemon juice.
When I reheated the broccolini in work's microwave, the stalks stayed fairly firm ... but the lovely crisp tops went limp. Next time, I will pack in glass instead of plastic and try reheating the broccolini in the toaster oven. Perhaps they will retain their crispness a bit better that way?

This book offers a smorgasbord of sensory-based interventions for use by educators, occupational therapists and parents. This practical and well-researched tool is unique by focusing on middle and high school students, whose sensory needs are often overlooked. In suggesting interventions for this age group, the author emphasizes the importance of fostering independence, self-advocacy and self-regulation as a way to for teens with autism spectrum disorders to take ownership of their sensory needs as they transition into adulthood. Using simple terminology and lots of illustrations, the book also explains sensory integration basics, describes the sensory systems and their dysfunction and helps develop daily educational interventions through assessment of sensory needs. Parents and educational team members working with teens with autism spectrum disorders will benefit from adding this resource to their library.

It seems like ABC's The Bachelor/Bachelorette has a bit of trouble with lasting romance. Only two couples have remained together out of 24 couples that have been brought together on the reality show.
Just last week The Bachelor's Ben Flajnik broke off his engagement to Courtney Robertson, and Courtney was recently spotted snuggling up to Bachelorette runner-up Arie Luyendyk Jr. Just yesterday, the most recent Bachelorette couple, Emily Maynard and Jef Holm, have now officially split, confirming rumors that have been buzzing around the couple in recent weeks. Both Maynard and Holm issued statements to People.com.
"It was a very difficult and heartbreaking decision," says Maynard of her break up.
North Texas native Sean Lowe will get his shot at being The Bachelor in January. Can the All-American good guy crack The Bachelor/Bachelorette curse?

I'm going to let you in on a little secret: I'm not the best speller in the world. I guess I'm pretty good compared to most people, but any child who has gotten to the second round of a spelling bee could clean the floor with me.
What really saved my career as a journalist is the invention of spell check. Today I only have to get close to the correct word, and Microsoft Word, the program I mostly use to write, will suggest the proper spelling.
Related coverage:
Cloud services hacked via Google search
4 search engine snags and their satisfying solutions
On a separate note, I think spell check has also made folks a bit lazy when it comes to spelling. Case in point, back in college a fellow journalist who was also a bad speller told me his plan to get better. Whenever he ran across a word he couldn't spell, he took the time to look it up in the dictionary. After a year, he figured he would be much better at spelling and could leave the giant paper tome behind. And for him, it worked.
I however, came to rely on spell check. The red underline would flag misspelled words and I, having a modicum of spelling prowess, could select the correct word from the list. That worked, but I didn't really learn anything.
My biggest problem with Word is that there are some words that simply trip it up. When writing about temperature for our many rugged reviews, I always put "Farenheight," which Word thinks should be changed to "Fare height." That doesn't help at all.
However, when the same misspelled word is pasted into Google, it says, "showing results for Fahrenheit instead." There are quite a few other words that confuse Word but not Google. They are not difficult to find.
I have to wonder why Google is so smart when it comes to figuring out what word a user wants to use. My guess is that the database Google is pulling from is so massive that it's probably seen a lot of the same basic spelling mistakes. There are probably a lot of people who have wanted to search for Fahrenheit but typed in "Farenheight" instead. Nice to know that I've got company.
You would think it would be simple for word processors to use the same type of technology to improve their accuracy, but I suppose that would involve capturing data from their users and then making the connections between common mistakes and the accurate spelling.
I thought that is what spell check was supposed to do, but instead I think it just matches the misspelling with words that are somewhat close to what you've typed. And Google obviously goes beyond that to associate common mistakes with actual words.
Although I think adding user-mistakes to Word would work, I won't hold my breath. Privacy advocates would say that a word processor that does something like that is overreaching, even though Google does it and a lot more.
So I've come up with my own solution to my spelling problem. I've purchased a huge dictionary, and every time I don't know how to spell a word, I'm going to look it up, just like my friend in college did. That book will be an albatross around my neck until I become a proficient speller. Then I won't care how accurate the spell-check software is, because I'll be better.
About the Author
John Breeden II is a freelance technology writer for GCN.
E-Mail this page
Printable Format
I have had the same problem as the author with spelling my entire life, which has now reached 70 years. In the past I've used MS-Word based tools and encountered the same problems. The MS spell-check and suggestions are at times ridiculous, time consuming and frustrating. Enter Google Docs and their excellent spell check about 3 years ago. Contrary to the author's experience I've found that Google has made me a better speller, still not great, but better. If you take the time to notice that the checker has again caught the same word you take the time to find your error. I recently tried using MS-Word which brought me to this posts title. Google should offer to help Microsoft, I sense a deal here.
I have recently found that Google has an error every time with past tense, present tense, and future tense. I typed in "When did James Monroe's parents die?" and it corrected it to "When did James Monroe's parents died?" This has happened to me many times on various occasions, and I do think that grammar (other than spelling) is Word's better side.
I too am a writer for a the travel blog, http://www.MikesRoadTrip.com and I get so frustrated with Word, Mac Mail and other programs that can't spell as well as Google. I always get what I want from Google, but as you eluded to...often Word gets tripped up. I'm a terrible speller, but I know when I see the work spelled correctly. I would think by now programs like Word would be using a search engine database for their spell check.
I'm almost to the point of using Google Docs over MS Word and Excel. Not because the application is that much better over Word. Because let's get real, Word has been around for over 20 years now (30 years in development), and Google's Docs maybe 2 or 3 years. But the only reason why I will use an application that is that much younger, is because its BETTER! Better word processor? No. Better at processing words! I think Word programmers need to take a page out of Google's book. For the most part, when I see the red lines under words. I don't right click and correct but highlight and copy, and paste into Google. Because Google gets the correct word I'm trying to spell about 98.9% of the time. And 100% of the words that MS Word misses. Which is a high rate of, "almost all the time". :)
So two things Microsoft, the supposing king of software! Either change the name of Word to Processor. Or get spell checker to work. Like Google has in such a short time frame. Because MS Word does such a bad job on, What?! Words!?!
Ironic? No, Microsoft!
I did something similar with a dictionary before auto spell check was even available. Every time I looked up a word in the dictionary for its definition I would put a dot next to the word in the margin. (It is my dictionary and I can write in it if I want to.) When a word had 3-4 dots next to it I should know the meaning.

Rick Perry cranks up Republican fear of women for another round
Texas Republican Governor Rick Perry on Wednesday launched another battle to pass sweeping abortion restrictions after a marathon speech by a Democrat lawmaker briefly halted a bill critics say could shut most abortion clinics in one of the nation's biggest states.
Democratic Senator Wendy Davis, once a teenage mother who went on to earn a Harvard Law degree, was propelled on to the national political stage when she spoke for more than 10 hours to block a measure that would ban abortions after 20 weeks of pregnancy.
It proved a short-lived victory for women's groups and abortion rights advocates fighting to stop abortion restrictions across several states. Perry called for another special legislative session to reconsider the proposal on July 1…
I wouldn't expect anything less from a Texas Republican. They respect the truth even less than they care for women's rights.
Davis' filibuster of the Republican supermajority in the Texas legislature was streamed live on some national media websites.
Republicans managed to stop her about two hours before the midnight end to the special legislative session, citing parliamentary procedures, but they were unable to complete voting on the abortion bill before the deadline…
If the measure ultimately passes, Texas would become the 13th state to impose a ban on abortions after 20 weeks and by far the most populous. In addition, the legislation would set strict [phony] health standards for abortion clinics and restrict the use of drugs to end pregnancy.
Republican backers said blah, blah, blah…
The U.S. Supreme Court legalized abortion nationwide in 1973, but conservative states have enacted laws in recent years that seek to place restrictions on the procedure, especially on abortions performed late in pregnancy.
The debate rages across the nation. Twelve states have passed 20-week bans, including two states where the bans take effect later this year, according to the Center for Reproductive Rights. Courts have alreaady blocked the bans in three of the 12 states – Arizona, Georgia and Idaho.
Folks outside the United States have to understand that the rule of law only means obedience to 19th Century ideology for what passes for Republicans, nowadays. Science, honesty, dialogue, consensus, democracy and respect for all citizens – are meaningless words leftover from some time warp when traditional American conservatism valued those standards.
Texas abortion bill stopped by brave women who occupy state legislature – UPDATED
There have been dramatic scenes in Texas after a bill that threatened to close every abortion clinic in the state was overturned just hours after it was passed.
The law was initially approved by the Republican-controlled senate after a day of extraordinary scenes during which Democrats were accused of attempting to filibuster the bill by embarking on a marathon speech to run the debate out of time.
But Texas Lieutenant Governor David Dewhust has now reversed his decision after acknowledging Republicans missed the deadline to pass the vote after protesters reportedly shouted them down during the final 15 minutes before the vote deadline.
Republicans insisted they had started voting before the midnight deadline and passed the bill in time. But computer records of the voting were checked and revealed they were out of time.
The new law would have banned abortion procedures after 20 weeks of pregnancy and demanded that clinics upgrade their facilities and be reclassified as 'ambulatory surgical centres'.
The bill also demanded doctors performing abortions must be granted the right to admit patients to their clinic first by a hospital within 30 miles of the premises…
Speaking before the vote, Cecile Richards, president of the Planned Parenthood Action Fund, said: "If this passes, abortion would be virtually banned in the state of Texas, and many women could be forced to resort to dangerous and unsafe measures."
During the debate women's rights supporters had screamed protests from the public gallery while in the hall outside the Senate chamber, hundreds more protesters wearing orange T-shirts queued for a seat.
In dramatic scenes Democrat Wendy Davis was accused of filibustering after she began speaking against the bill at 11:18am and was only halted at 10:03pm, less than two hours before the midnight deadline, after three complaints from Republicans.
Senate rules dictate speakers must stay on topic and remain standing without physical support or breaks for meals or to use the bathroom…
Governor Dewhust eventually halted the speech after determining Ms Davis had strayed off topic when she talked about a sonogram bill passed in 2011.
Texas' miserable bible-thumping governor, Rick Perry, called this special session of the state legislature just to pass the latest attack by Republican political hacks on women's rights. He didn't count on women throughout Texas spontaneously marching upon the Republican-controlled state legislature to do everything they could to impede passage of the bill.
Republicans tried everything in their trick bag to stop Wendy Davis. They ruled she was out of order when one of her fellow Democrats helped her put on a back brace to ease the pain of standing, trying to school the ignoranuses before her.
Meanwhile the visitors' gallery filled with women from all over the state. Lines snaked out to the street of women clamoring to get in to speak out against this reactionary and patriarchal law. And when Ms. Davis was finally forced to relinquish the podium, the mass of women began to shout out individually and collectively from the gallery.
The tumult forced delay after delay until the Republicans were finally defeated by the clock.
UPDATE: These rat-bastard Republicans actually tried to change the time stamp on the voting record printout to save their miserable anti-women law. They were confronted with a side-by-side comparison of the attempted fraud – posted on Twitter.
Congressional lobbyists maintain Old Boy tradition of pay inequality
Women led eight of Washington's 50 most politically active trade lobby groups and earned about $600,000 less than their male counterparts, according to salary data compiled by Bloomberg.
The female chief executive officers were paid an average of $1.31 million in 2011, compared with $1.93 million paid to the 42 male CEOs. That means they made about 68 cents for every dollar paid to a man — a bigger salary divergence than the 72 cents women earned against every $1 paid to a man in the wider economy, as measured by the U.S. Census Bureau…
Washington is "the original boys' club," said Lisa Maatz, vice president of government relations for the American Association of University Women, a research group promoting female leadership. "Clearly there's still a hurdle, a glass ceiling, a bias about leadership roles…"
The salary figures show how discrepancies in opportunities and compensation exist even for the women operating at the highest levels of business, said employment consultant John Challenger, CEO of Chicago-based Challenger, Gray & Christmas…
"It seems like men and women would have equal lobbying ability — I can't see why there'd be any difference in pay," Challenger said. "The most obvious answer is that it's discrimination…"
The industry groups were ranked by the total amount spent lobbying in Washington during President Barack Obama's first term, in a Bloomberg Government compilation of documents filed with the U.S. Senate. The 50 associations since 2009 have spent a cumulative $1.85 billion trying to influence legislation on issues including health care, energy independence and tax rates, the data showed.
Even though this shouldn't come as a surprise to anyone experienced with how the United States economy is really run – the extra touch of just a bit more anti-woman discrimination in pay, say, compared to industrial workers, puts the icing on America's corporate cake.
The flunkies out in front of our corporate masters make it clear they will resist change all the way down to the last drop of blood in our bodies.
Smoking poses greater cancer risk to women
Smoking may pose a bigger health threat to women than men, say researchers.
Women who smoke have a higher risk of cancer than men, Norwegian investigators found.
They looked at the medical records of 600,000 patients and discovered the bowel cancer risk linked to smoking was twice as high in women than men…Female smokers had a 19% increased risk of the disease while male smokers had a 9% increased risk…
In the study, nearly 4,000 of the participants developed bowel cancer. Women who started smoking when they were 16 or younger and those who had smoked for decades were at substantially increased risk of bowel cancer.
The findings suggest that women may be biologically more vulnerable to the toxic effects of tobacco smoke.
Experts already know that women who start smoking increase their risk of a heart attack by more than men who take up the habit, although it is not clear why…
Although smoking rates have been falling among both sexes, the decline has been less rapid in women…
According to research in more than one million women, those who give up smoking by the age of 30 will almost completely avoid the risks of dying early from tobacco-related diseases.
Sarah Williams of Cancer Research UK said…"For men and women, the evidence is clear – being a non-smoker means you're less likely to develop cancer, heart disease, lung disease and many other serious illnesses."
That last sentence says it all.
My sister and I started smoking when she was 10, I was 12. We wanted to be like our parents. I was the only one who quit. You have to break the cultural chain if you're ever going to beat the thugs who profit from selling addiction.
Military equality, in her view, includes the draft
Now that women are allowed to serve in combat roles, Kristen Tsetsi thinks it's logical that women also be required to register for Selective Service just like men; and face the same consequences if they don't.
The Connecticut writer and feminist recently logged onto the Selective Service website to enter her name onto the draft rolls. As soon as she clicked "female" though, she was redirected to a page explaining that women do not register for the draft.
Tsetsi does not accept that.
"Not only should we be equally obligated to defend the country if the need arises and we're physically capable, but we should be so committed to our value in the military that we're willing to accept the less glamorous side of our participation, which is registering for the draft," she told Women's eNews…
Tsetsi said that requiring women to register for the draft is more than symbolic, given the consequences that men face for not registering.
"It would be mere symbolism if registering for the draft were completely voluntary for men or if it didn't threaten punishment for those who don't register," she said.
Jennifer Burke, a spokesperson for the Selective Service, said that more than 100,000 names and addresses of men suspected of dodging registration were reported to the Department of Justice last year.
The penalties for such men can be tangible, she added. "National headquarters and our data management center receive calls, emails, faxes and letters daily from men who are being denied financial aid, federal jobs, job training, security clearance and citizenship because they failed to register by law," she said.
Men who fail to register can also be fined up to $250,000, though Burke said that hasn't actually happened since the 1980s…
"For the existing law to include women in the Selective Service registration process, it would take a change in the law voted by Congress and approved by the president," she said.
Way too logical for Selective Service or Congress to deal with.
Actually, I like Charlie Rangel's approach to the whole question. Reinstate the draft. Specify no exemptions for politicians or their children. That alone should cut down on the number of wars our government seems to require.
Violence Against Women Act passes – in spite of Republicans
The House on Thursday gave final approval to a renewal of the Violence Against Women Act, sending a bipartisan Senate measure to President Obama after a House plan endorsed by conservatives was defeated…It amounted to a significant victory for the president and Congressional Democrats, who have assailed Republicans for months for stalling the legislation.
The successful measure passed the Senate last month with 78 votes — including those of every woman, all Democrats and just over half of Republicans.
The alternative unveiled by the House last Friday immediately came under sharp criticism from Democrats and women's and human rights groups for failing to include protections in the Senate bill for gay, bisexual or transgender victims of domestic abuse. The House bill also eliminated "sexual orientation" and "gender identity" from a list of "populations" that face barriers to receiving victim services — and stripped certain provisions regarding American Indian women on reservations.
With House Republicans divided, the leadership agreed that it would allow a vote on the Senate bill if the House version could not attract sufficient votes, and it failed on a vote of 257 to 166. Sixty Republicans joined 197 Democrats in opposition; 164 Republicans and 2 Democrats voted for it.
The newly passed legislation creates and expands federal programs to assist local communities with law enforcement and aiding victims of domestic and sexual abuse. Most notably, the bill goes further by offering protections for gay, bisexual or transgender victims of domestic abuse, as well as allowing American Indian women who are assaulted on reservations by non-Indians to take their case to tribal courts, which otherwise would not have jurisdiction over assailants who do not live on tribal land…
The legislation's approval underscored the divide in the Republican party as it struggles to regain its footing with women after its 2012 electoral drubbing among female voters. House Republicans — even split at the leadership level — ultimately bowed to what they saw as the best interests of their party nationally, even if that meant overriding the will of the majority of rank-and-file Republicans.
Last month, more than 1,300 women's and human rights groups signed a letter supporting the Senate legislation.
"Over more than two decades, this law has saved countless lives and transformed the way we treat victims of abuse," Mr. Obama said in a statement. "Today's vote will go even further by continuing to reduce domestic violence, improving how we treat victims of rape, and extending protections to Native American women and members of the L.G.B.T. community."
"Renewing this bill is an important step towards making sure no one in America is forced to live in fear, and I look forward to signing it into law as soon as it hits my desk," Mr. Obama said…
Various flavors of House Republicans will now spend the next few weeks fabricating the next generation of lies about why they voted against the Senate bill, why they tried to pass a bill riddled with loopholes.
This has been a bill generating automatic bi-partisan support for decades. It has grown in breadth and concern as have the same qualities among American voters. But, now, the nutballs in charge of the Republican Party not only reject growing and learning, they reject bipartisan discussion and negotiation – and most of all – they reject any bill which appears to reflect the leadership of President Obama.
They have the stature that tiny minds deserve. An STD infecting Congress!
Israeli coppers arrest 10 women for wearing prayer shawls
Israeli police detained 10 women at one of Judaism's most sacred sites on Monday for wearing prayer shawls, which Orthodox tradition sees as solely for men, a spokesman said.
The incident at the Western Wall in Jerusalem's Old City highlighted the divisions between the more liberal streams of Judaism and politically powerful Orthodox groups that traditionally limit the role of women in prayer.
Also a graphic illustration of Israel's fealty to theocracy.
The Western Wall is administered under strict Orthodox ritual law, which bars women from wearing prayer shawls or publicly reading from the holy scriptures.
Among those held was Susan Silverman, a reform rabbi who is a sister of U.S. comedian Sarah Silverman. Two other American citizens and Israeli members of "Women of the Wall", a group that campaigns for gender equality in religious practice, were also detained.
The group routinely convenes for monthly prayer sessions at the Western Wall, revered by Jews as a perimeter wall of the Biblical Temple in Jerusalem. Some of its members have been detained by police in the past for wearing prayer shawls at the site and released without charge.
Susan Silverman…the rabbi said in a telephone interview from the police station where the group was held that they had been among more than 100 women attending the hour-long prayer session…
Micky Rosenfeld, a spokesman for national police, said the women had acted "against regulations set by the High Court", citing a decision of a decade ago upholding Orthodox rules at the site to avoid friction between worshippers.
'Nuff said. Avoiding friction by placing the most backwards sects in the nation in charge of law and order is all that can be expected from a court constituted to rubber stamp reactionary politics.
Tammy Duckworth applauds end of ban on women in combat
A congresswoman who lost both of her legs while serving in the Illinois Army National Guard in Iraq applauded the Pentagon's decision to to lift combat restrictions on women.
"The decision to allow women to serve in combat will allow the best man or woman on the frontline to keep America safe," U.S. Rep. Tammy Duckworth, D-Illinois, said in a statement Wednesday. "As a combat veteran, I know the inclusion of women in combat roles will make America safer and provide inspiration to women throughout our country."
Duckworth was the first woman injured in combat ever elected to national office, when she ousted former Republican Rep. Joe Walsh – a well known fool – this past November.
Duckworth operated a black hawk helicopter in the war in Iraq, one of the few combat roles open to women at the time, serving as a lieutenant in the Illinois Army National Guard. In 2004, during a mission north of Baghdad, the helicopter she was co-piloting was ambushed, struck by a rocket-propelled grenade. She lost both of her legs and partial use of one arm in the attack. Duckworth was awarded decorations for her military service, including the Purple Heart, the Air Medal and the Combat Action Badge.
"There has always been some level of opposition to increasing the diversity in our military whether it has been minorities or women. It is clear that the inclusion of groups like African Americans and Asians has made our military stronger," Duckworth added.
And why not women? By the time this is fully implemented in 2015 folks will be busy electing our military's next commander-in-chief. Quite probably a woman. :)
Republicans should stop whining about Roe v. Wade
It's hard to get 70 percent of Americans to agree on much of anything these days. But, for the first time, one of those things is Roe v. Wade, the Supreme Court decision that legalized abortion.
According to a new poll from NBC News and the Wall Street Journal, released on the law's 40th anniversary Tuesday, fully seven in 10 Americans say they would oppose the overturning of the Supreme Court decision. And perhaps more remarkably, 57 percent say they "feel strongly" that it should not be overturned…
The poll also shows for the first time that a majority of Americans (54 percent) support abortion rights. And a new Pew Research Center poll largely confirms those findings, showing 63 percent of Americans oppose overturning Roe, while 29 percent would like to see it scrapped. Even Republicans are split down the middle, with 48 percent opposed to overturning Roe and 46 percent who support overturning it…
The trend line is clear: Americans are becoming more accepting of abortion rights…
As they are with issues like gay marriage and illegal immigration, though, Republicans are now caught between their base and the general public.
While much of the GOP base remains firmly anti-abortion rights and those most passionate conservatives would like to see Roe overturned, Republicans need to recognize more broadly that overturning Roe is no longer sound politics.
What's more, the party has already begun to lose ground on issues concerning women's rights. Over the last two years, Republicans have struggled with issues like contraception, rape and "transvaginal ultrasounds" — so much so that a pollster at last weekend's Republican retreat went so far as to urge lawmakers to stop talking about rape altogether.
Abortion isn't as fraught an issue as the ones listed above, but it's still a wedge issue that is increasingly working against the GOP and risks turning off female voters, who stuck by President Obama more than a lot of other demographics in 2012.
Republicans have two years – or less – to turn away from becoming America's Christian Confederate Party. They can continue on the course of strict reliance on Christian fundamentalist conservatives with all the baggage that brings: homophobia, racism, subjugating women, opposing public secular education, fear and hatred of science, the endless mobius loopiness of 14th Century ideology and superstition. If they fail – and I think they will – they are likely to take their place as a permanent minority party.
If and when that happens, the clot of leftover Birchers, Cold Warriors, Confederacy fans, chickenhawks and 19th Century capitalists like the Koch Brothers will shout "huzzah" – and keep it going as a mouthpiece for their dedication to the worst of dead and dying politics.
An American history freak show.

Surrounded by water that's chock-full of fishies, South Florida has basically two kinds of restaurants: seafood and other. So it stands to reason that we eat a lot of sushi. Once the bastion of the brave, sushi bars are now nearly as American as hamburger stands -- only wimps and wussies are afraid of chowing down on a little raw fish sittin' on a ball of vinegared rice. So, we've selected Sushi Blues because it's not for the ramen rookie, gari greenhorn, nigiri neophyte, nori novice, or temaki tenderfoot. Once you've mastered the beginning levels of the sushi/sashimi maze, the nothing-if-not eclectic Sushi Blues is ready to take you higher. Kenny Millions, the jazz trumpeter who also runs Sushi Jazz down the street, has messed with the menu here, adding odd items like filet mignon tataki in chardonnay wasabi, weird rolls (barbecued eel with... papaya?) that you won't even hear of anywhere else, plus wonderful (and hard-to-find!) unfiltered sake -- slightly sweet and milky-white, with a faint ester of banana -- the perfect accompaniment to Sushi Blues' slightly adventurous fare. So raise the bar, raise your chopsticks, and accept Sushi Blues' challenge.

Wide receiver Jared Abbrederis and center Corey Linsley missed practice on Friday.
Rookie safety Tanner Miller joined the ranks of the injured with an ankle issue.
Linebacker Mike Neal returned to practice on Wednesday, while safety Morgan Burnett pulled out after injuring his ankle.
Linebacker Jamari Lattimore was a new addition to those sitting out practice on Sunday.
It was revealed Jerel Worthy has a lower back injury, Mike Neal has an abdomen issue and Nick Perry continues to have problems with his foot and knee.
Meanwhile, defensive linemen Letroy Guion and Jerel Worthy were declared to have non-football injuries.
OTAs will provide a glimpse into how far several Packers players have recovered from injuries last season, such as Clay Matthews, Bryan Bulaga and Casey Hayward.
While Ted Thompson might feel pressured to make a trip to every Packer fan's house this Christmas to explain why he's not playing Aaron Rodgers today, it's nothing compared to the pressure felt by Mike Shanahan and Robert Griffin III.

What makes it so great is its simplicity.
It does everything you need it to do but in a user friendly straight forward way.
Eventsnova is not overpopulated with hundreds of confusing options.
Eventsnova team offers one of the best support in solving my queries & helped me a lot to achieve what I want on my site.
Defiantly gonna be an extension I always have on board and will always put forward to friends.
The support team is also very expeditious in responding, very nice, and handles issues immediately.
Finally I got something out from Joomla community which can help me to compete with other available technologies.
Eventsnova is the component which can lead this stream.
Features I liked the most are:
- Extra ordinary support & quick response. Excellent service.
- Easy to configure. Documentation – to the point.
- Unlimited domain support / installations.
- Easy integration with Joomsocial / CB
- Watch list / waiting list
- Powerful search
- Video upload & radius search
It comes with a big bunch of other useful features to serve core purpose efficiently.
Great work!!
The two important feature I needed were easy customization (layout etc), extended multi language support and strong integration with social.
Now I wonder how this could have 5 stars review, that in my opinion are simply untrue.
Just to recap the experience I had with my points
1) Customization: templating mechanism is just a pain to get and totally non-standard, at least compared to what other pugin vendors do
2) Multi language: a few of my German and Russian customers complained about a poor translation, mostly similar to a BOT. In addition there are problems displaying unicode chars
3) Social: integration with Jomsocial does not work at all
Probably these are solvable issues, however right now I don't feel giving 5 stars is honest.
We have documentation for all features, however we would love your feedback. Our support forum is available 24 hours if you would like to post an issue there, you can also email email@example.com.
1) Customization: templating mechanism is just a pain to get and totally non-standard, at least compared to what other plugin vendors do
Reply: This is the easiest template system we have developed. If you wanted then we can built up the template for you.
2) Multi language: a few of my German and Russian customers complained about a poor translation, mostly similar to a BOT. In addition there are problems displaying unicode chars
Reply: We are not professional language translators.
3) Social: integration with Jomsocial does not work at all.
Reply: you must have to install Jomsocial plugin for Eventsnova. We are providing JomSocial plugins as well as there is a back end setting to integrate eventsnova with jomSocial. So all profile links will be redirect to JomSocial.
This is really rubbish review which was given by this user. Its totally fake review. You can see, this user has already been given many fake reviews to all the events component on the same day. How this could be possible? So please ignore this review. One more thing we have no message or FORUM support.
The is an OUTSTANDING addition to any site! It's easy to setup.. easy to configure.. easy to maintain and most of all VERY USER FRIENDLY!!
The Support for this is also top-notched! For basically an event this is awesome!! IF it's not the best already it will be by the time its all said and done! I guarantee it! I have tried a few and finally.. finally found something that both myself and my users really enjoy!
Take it from me.. you will be VERY happy with this package, not only from the ease of use but again the outstanding support you will get if you run into any trouble.
I give 5 stars to this component it is really awesome!!!! also have a really great support team!! i have to say this is the best component and support ever!
Lastly Simple + powerful = perfect.
Congratulations EventsNova Boys!
it has a Amazing features like Unlimited Categories, Events, Groups, Custom Fields and Payment gateways which really boost my Work.
Thanks guys for making this wonderful component. Good Luck.
Thank you for your good product guys!

TORREY, Utah (AP) -- A man and woman from Tennessee were killed in a head-on collision in Utah's Capitol Reef National Park.
The Utah Highway Patrol says 43-year-old Stephen Foster and 41-year-old Kristina Foster of Knoxville, Tenn., were pronounced dead at the scene Wednesday morning.
Troopers say the Fosters were eastbound on State Route 24 near Torrey when the driver of an oncoming Chevy pickup truck drifted off the roadway, overcorrected and then struck the Fosters' car.
According to troopers, the Fosters were not wearing seat belts and were ejected from the car.
The truck driver, whose name was not released, was taken to a local hospital with minor injuries.
The cause of the 9 a.m. accident is under investigation.

College marketing professors spend their days researching which promotional techniques and strategies work, and which don't. They're unbiased sources of information with a deep understanding of what drives sales, referrals and bottom-line profits. So we searched out some of the collegiate world's most respected marketing experts and gathered their best advice below:
Tip #1 – from Philip Kotler (Professor of International Marketing at the Kellogg Graduate School of Management):
Stop soliciting everyone and anyone and instead identify a specific category of clients you want to acquire. Figure out what that target audience really wants, then build a reputation for doing that better than anyone else. Write articles, give speeches and send marketing materials that all position you as the best of the best in those key areas.
Tip #2 – from Jeffrey Pfeffer (Professor of Organizational Behavior at Stanford):
Too often, sales people view networking as something uncomfortable and inauthentic; a marketing effort cloaked in personal friendship. But it doesn't need to be that way. Before trying to network with someone, use social media to learn as much as you can about them. Once you find something(s) you both have in common, it will be far easier to strike up an honest, heartfelt conversation that could lead to a long-lasting and productive working relationship for the both of you.

EPA fines two Albany area companies for hazardous waste misdeeds
Send this to a friend

Two western Oregon companies will pay close to $1 million in civil penalties related to improper storage and transportation of hazardous materials.
Oregon Metallurgical of Albany and TDY Industries of Millersburg will pay a combined $825,000 in civil penalties to the state. The penalty, reported by the Environmental Protection Agency, aims to "resolve alleged violations related to improper storage, transportation and disposal of anhydrous magnesium chloride," which is a reactive hazardous waste that can pose serious fire and explosion threats.
Oregon Metallurgical and TDY Industries allegedly illegally shipped approximately 160 million pounds of hazardous wastes to Oregon landfills that weren't equipped to dispose of untreated reactive wastes.
The facilities produce and process titanium and zirconium, which generate large quantities of anhydrous magnesium chloride as a byproduct.
The companies are wholly owned subsidiaries of Pittsburgh-based Allegheny Technologies Inc.

Solunar theory: The moon's effect on hunting & fishing.
Moon Phase Weather Forecasters
John Alden Knight, an avid fisherman and author, is widely credited with the development of the solunar theory. Knight's theory validated local folklore that animals and fish move according to the location of the moon, not the sun. The theory says the best time to fish or hunt is when the moon is directly overhead in the sky or directly underfoot in the opposite side of the earth's sky.
Because changes in the moon aren't always visible, it can be difficult to identify its positioning throughout the lunar cycle. AcuRite Weather Stations track the phases of the moon conveyed through simple lunar phase icons.
