MCN says:
Last Sunday I rode from my home near Exeter to my in-laws' house in Birmingham. I must have passed over 100 bikes but, despite my cheery waves, only received half a dozen or so nods in return.
What's wrong with bikers these days; why does hardly anyone wave anymore?
Your answer could help. The best will be printed in next week's MCN,...

I think your right urbanfireblade.
If I'm on the dirt bike riding to the green lanes I never get nodded. The Blackbird on the other hand seems to carry more cred.
Have bikers really become snobs??

I do about 30,000 a year. That's alot of nods! The problem is, the nodding reflex is so well ingrained that I find my self nodding when I'm driving the other half's car, when I'm walking and see a bike, when I see a classic car, or anything else vaguely unusual. The other week I found myself nodding at a guy driving an ancient tractor. I think I need to see a doctor! (or maybe The Doctor!)
Oh, and I ride a Ducati 999!
In the future bikers won't nod at each other, the bike will take care of this for you. By the time you see another bike, your machine will already know that bikes proximity, approach speed and riding characteristics. An acknowledgement (electronic nod!) will be made between the two vehicles and they will pass each other having safely not crashed into one another. All those nodding neck muscles you spent a lifetime building up will waste away to nothing. As the years pass and you grow older your bike will eventually make the decision that you are not fit to ride and will take over the controls for you, turning you into just a passenger. And then, eventually, after all those years........ will you finally, finally be able to get that sodding knee down!!!

Strange, but I also nod to bikes when I'm walking to the shops. Could this be 'Obsessive Repetitive Behaviour'? Maybe I should go and see the quack?

They have got one thing right over in France, the nod\salute!! I guess the fact that they generally like bikers and even the Gendarme have been known to encourage "naughty" behaviour tends to add to the biker community sprit there. From my last trip over the channel I was extremely impressed by the number of bikers tearing around the normandy countryside bike cranked over and still managing to give the "v for victory" acknowledgement with their inside hand... I think they must have a contest to see see who can "get their knuckles down" saying hi!
I tend to say hi to everyone on two wheels, even grumpy Harley riders with skull bandanas on and tassles, I think its wasted on them, though, they just look at you like they think you're an alien...
Maybe the "nod" here is disappearing over here just like manners and etiquette generally, everyone seems to have the attitude of "fuck everyone else" nowadays so that translates onto the roads too... certainly does in cars...

Health & Pregnancy
Vacuum Aspiration for Molar Pregnancy - Topic Overview
Vacuum aspiration is a surgical procedure used to remove molar pregnancy tissue from the uterus. This procedure uses a hollow tube (cannula) that is attached by tubing to a bottle and a pump, which provides a gentle vacuum.
After the cervix is opened, or dilated, the cannula is passed into the uterus, the pump is turned on, and the molar tissue is gently removed from the uterus. While suction is being applied, the wall of the uterus is usually scraped with a sharp instrument, or curette, to remove the molar tissue.
You will be given general anesthesia, so you are not awake during the procedure.
Medicine (such as oxytocin) is used during or after the procedure to make the uterus contract. Uterine contractions help the uterus shrink to its prepregnancy size and help stop uterine bleeding after the growth is removed.

Transperancy, honesty, and protecting the rights of my constituants in the 35th district and all Illinois residents.
Reduce income taxes;
Provide property tax relief and simplify the process for determining tax; and
Significantly reduce pension underfunding.
Business development and job creation are among my top priorities for the 35th District. Fostering a friendlier business climate will stimulate growth and put Illinois back to work. Investing in key infrastructure projects will also boost our local economy.
Last year, the legislature raised the corporate tax rate to 9.5%. This rate is the 4th highest in the country and is significantly higher than any neighboring state. In response to this increase, many businesses fled the state in search of a less oppressive tax system. The General Assembly in turn needed to dole out reactionary incentive packages to stem the tide of business flight.
Ultimately, this process has frustrated and confused businesses and residents. Our tax code is crying out for reform. The loopholes, exemptions and incentives offered to few are financed on the backs of small-business owners.
A lower, more evenly applied corporate tax rate is needed in Illinois; such a system would be more easily understood and much fairer than the current system. This shift could help bring businesses back into Illinois and provide much needed assistance to struggling business owners. Small-business owners are the backbone of the local economy in my district; lessening the burden the state places on them is one of my top priorities.
Investment in local infrastructure projects is another tool for economic recovery. Such projects create short-term jobs and allow for easier access between commercial areas. The southwestern section of the 35th District would greatly benefit from the planned extension of I-355 to I-57 near Peotone, as well as the proposed Illiana expressway project. Similarly, residents and businesses at the eastern edge of the district would benefit from the proposed expansion of the CTA redline from 95th St. to 130th St. As a State Representative, I will strongly advocate for both of these projects.
Ensuring residents have affordable access to higher education is another priority. If elected, I intend to work with the Legislative Audit Commission and the Inspector General to address the problems at Chicago State University. For too long, taxpayers have pumped millions of dollars into failing programs at Chicago State. Reforming the practices and making it a viable option will not only benefit my district, but the entire City and adjacent suburbs.
The state-of-the-art campus, reasonable tuition rate, and location should make Chicago State a logical choice for students in my district. Its course offerings are consistent with the needs of many students; and options for advanced degrees, specifically in education, fill a void. Unfortunately, its poor reputation and low graduation rate cause it to be overlooked. Instead, too many students opt for community college programs, forgoing the option of a four-year degree.
When significant taxpayer resources are invested in an institution like this, the General Assembly has a duty to ensure public funds are not being misused. With proper oversight, Chicago State could be a great school helping prepare young adults to enter the professional world. This would fill a need for residents of my district; and, if elected, I hope to work toward that goal.
- Clean up the state's budget.
- Focus on infrastructure to rebuild our community and put people back to work.
- Improve local schools to give our children the world-class education they deserve.

Similar to the answer above
Transperancy, honesty, and protecting the rights of my constituants and all Illinois residents.
Fulfillment of Pension commitments
Job creation;
Provide leadership to bring fiscal responsibility;
Balancing the state budget
Reducing the income tax -being sure the temporary increase is temporary
Ethical standards for elected officials
Illinois politics has become a national joke. Corruption, waste, and greed have become commonplace in our state. Our residents have come to expect the worst from their elected officials and with good reason. So, my top priority for our state would be major ethics reform aimed at restoring public trust in government.
Wasteful spending, corruption, and tax increases have disenfranchised the public. As a show of good faith to the public, elected officials should share the burden with an across the board 10% reduction in legislative salaries and expense accounts. While this amount will not solve our budget crisis, it will be a rare gesture of leadership by example from Springfield.
Legislators should also share the pain of pension reforms. Currently, State Representatives, Senators, and Judges have a pension plan that offers cost-of-living increases that are far greater than other state workers. As these positions offer some of the most generous pension benefits, I support efforts to align their increases with those of every other government worker.
Government officials need to be more accountable to the public. I support mandatory disclosure of income tax returns for all elected officials and other high-ranking government officials. In addition, our existing economic interest statements should be more thorough and required for all state employees in decision-making positions. These measures will help expose potential conflicts of interest and help the public better understand the leaders of our government.
Illinois needs to adopt a zero-tolerance policy for public corruption. For far too long the State Legislature has been used as an economic engine for the politically connected. I believe that government officials who are convicted of serious ethics violations should automatically forfeit their pensions and receive mandatory jail time.
Nearly every month, a watchdog group or investigative report uncovers a new instance of overwhelming fraud or waste in our government. If these groups can find the waste in Springfield, why can't our elected officials? As the press is the taxpayers' strongest and most effective advocate, I oppose any efforts to weaken the recently-enhanced FOIA laws.
In addition to these reform measures, the Legislature must keep its word to the public by not extending the "temporary" tax increases passed last year. By following through with its promises and enacting the aforementioned reforms, the General Assembly can restore taxpayers' trust in their state government. Doing so will be my top priority for our state.
- Clean up the state's budget.
- Focus on infrastructure to rebuild our community and put people back to work.

I am not a child of the Illinois political system. Therefore, I can vote for/against a proposition based upon it's metits not someone's political agenda or party dictate.
My strengths come from my experience with each state position:
1. Illinois Auditor General's Office where compliance and performance audit's gave me knowledge of "what should be done by law" and how government works.
2. With the Illinois and Wisconsin Racing Boards I promulgated statute and administrative rules for each govermental entities.
3. For Hawthorne, I was a Management Director for Pensions and H&W Trusts for track parimutuel clerks. This provided me with great understanding on how the pension funds are funded and disbursed to annuants.
I possess a firsthand understanding of the challenges faced by families today. As a single mother of three children, I have worked two jobs to support my family; and I can honestly say that the tax increase that passed last year hit our home hard. I understand the struggle that so many people face; I know the worry, live with the angst, and feel the heartache. Too many of our friends and neighbors are forced to choose between mortgage and tuition–-and felt overwhelmed just trying to get by.
Understanding the problems and the difficulties is only one piece of the puzzle. With my background in public and community service, I also understand the solutions. For the past twenty years I have helped the residents of this community with issues big and small. I have helped young families appeal their property taxes and senior citizens apply for circuit breaker grants. I have worked with college students on financial aid options and struggling parents in need of utility assistance. My long history of service to this community has left me with a unique understanding of constituent services.
I have seen the good that can be done when residents work together with government to solve problems. I realize that the most important part of my job will not take place in Springfield--my job, above anything else, is to be responsive to residents of this community. If an issue is important to one resident, then it is important to me. That is the way I have conducted myself for the past twenty years, and that is how I intend serve the residents of the 35th District.
During my time as a former President and current four-term Trustee, the Firefighters' pension fund has had the highest investment performance, the lowest investment related expenses and the lowest administrative expenses of any of Chicago's public pension funds. I am also President and Co-Founder of the Ende, Menzer, Walsh, Quinn Retirees, Widows and Children's Assistance Fund which has distributed approximately $4.9 million over the past eight years to 471 widows living at or near the poverty level and to all children who have lost a parent who was an active member of the fire department.

Public employees were hired and promised a pension. These employees were contributing per their contracts/agreements and Illlinois needs to honor those commitments. Adjustments have been made to future public employees and that is adequate and should be monitored going forward.
I do not support reducing pension benefits through a bill like SB512. Due to the demanding, life threatening nature of their job's, I believe police officers and firefighters should be exempt from the pension benefit roll-backs that have been imposed on other public employees.
I do not believe in deliberately violating an expressed provision of the State of Illinois Constitution.

Write and pass laws, tightening up the public pension language to eliminate double-dipping of pensions. Pension dollar give aways, improve returns/lower expenses on invested funds by eliminating political associates from having control over the investing process. I would also use new gaming/lottery revenues and funds from any state, county, or city lease to be used to reduce the arrearages.
The State of Illinois must honor its commitment to state employees by providing them with the pension benefits they were promised when hired. At the same time, lawmakers have a responsibility to the public to find solutions to the pension crisis that do not include a debilitating tax increase. I support a combination of badly-needed reform measures and moderate expansion of gaming.
A series of reforms is needed to prevent the corruption and abuse that has eroded the pension funds. First, automatic benefit increases for judges and legislators, which are currently higher than those of other state workers, should be brought down to the level of other pension recipients. As early retirement offerings often create pension deficits far greater than the budget shortfall they are aimed at addressing, the publication of a cost-benefit analysis should be required before any such program is offered. Finally, while pension obligation bonds will almost certainly be needed to address some portion of the pension crisis, I support a state law prohibiting the use of bond revenue for employer contributions. Any proceeds from such an issuance should only be used to reduce unfunded liability-–NOT to make employer contributions that would ultimately free up operating capital.
While these reforms are a strong step in the right direction, they will not stabilize our system. A new dedicated revenue source is the only viable option. Therefore, I would support the expansion of gaming to offset unfunded pension liabilities. I would also support other potential changes to the pension system, provided they are agreed to through collective bargaining.
As a four-term Trustee and former President, I have extensive experience in pension management and investment with the Chicago Firefighters' Pension Fund. There is significant debate as to whether public funds appropriate level of funding is 90% or 70%. These plans are not private plans, and should be treating accordingly. The cost of the unfunded liability should be amortized in a manner that ensures future fiscal sustainability. Additionally, the state and municipalities must aggressively weed out fraud and abuse.

It must expire as the law reads and was promised by state legislators. No tax increase is acceptable, however, this temporary increase should be used to pay the pension deficit and past due bills of the state. We also need to emphasize that a true balanced budget be approved.
The General Assembly must keep its word to the public and allow the income tax to expire in 2014; to do otherwise would further erode public trust in government. That being said, I also understand how dependent our State is on this additional revenue. Therefore, I support creating a bi-partisan commission to create a plan for our State to live without this "temporary" revenue.
If we do not begin working on alternatives now, it will be impossible to roll back those taxes when the time comes. We must find new, more efficient ways to deliver quality services to the citizens. With so many families struggling to make ends meet, tax relief is the most responsible course of action.
First, we must do a thorough assessment of the state's obligations, find places to cut waste and steamline, as well as reform parts of the state tax code to generate more revenue. While I do not support making the tax increase permanent at this point, it is unlikely we will be able to forego that revenue and balance our short term budget.

I believe the state tax rate should be "fairly" restructured to a graduated tax. Corporate give-backs should be tied to job creation and/or stability to continue to receive tax breaks otherwise fines, penalties, or reduce tax incentives.
As outlined in my response on priorities in the district, I strongly support shifting to a lower corporate income tax rate, applied more evenly to all businesses.
I do. This is not just a question of closing tax loopholes versus business incentives. Just as with everyday citizens, every business pays in and be stakeholders in our states economic good health. By ensuring that all businesses pay something, and pay proportional to their stake and economic holdings, we could increase our revenue, while decreasing the burden on small businesses and those Illinois will rely on to put people back to work.
- [ + ]Hodorowicz
- [ + ]Hurley
- [ + ]Martin
The corporate tax rate should be analyzed and significant emphasis on any tax incentives should be tied to job creation. Tax incentives should be offered to all employers who hire those unemployed over 6 months. By generating jobs, we will increase the state's tax revenues and reduce costs/spending and amounts owed vendors.
Unfortunately, most of the incentives the state has offered to the business community have been offered to large corporations; and the benefits only seem to be extended when companies threaten to leave the state.
Illinois needs to end this game of corporate blackmail and instead focus on aiding the small and midsize businesses that form the backbone of our economy. Following are some initial steps lawmakers can take now to provide that assistance.
The Research and Development Tax Credit should be made permanent. During the Veto Session the legislature temporarily extended these credits. Businesses don't need temporary solutions, they need long-term cost certainty. R&D Credits encourage businesses to invest in new equipment and develop new products. They also tend to benefit pharmaceutical companies, high tech start-ups, and green sector businesses--the sectors of the national economy that are growing. R&D Credits will help establish and keep these businesses in Illinois.
Use of the Economic Development for a Growing Economy (EDGE) Credits should be expanded. These benefits allow big businesses (like Sears) to avoid paying employer payroll taxes for a certain period of time in exchange for keeping jobs in Illinois. The state should provide similar benefits to small and midsize companies who hire new employees; this will spur job growth by lowering employment costs.
The Workers Compensation Commission should be strengthened. One of the most frequent complaints about Illinois' hostile business environment is the high cost of Workers Comp claims. The General Assembly enacted some important Workers Comp reforms last year, but they didn't go far enough. Compensation awards should be randomly audited to uncover fraudulent claims; and the work of Commission members should be regularly reviewed to ensure they do not have relationships with attorneys and claimants, which has been alleged in the past.
We are still feeling the effects of the worst economic crisis since the Great Depression. On day one, I will work to find ways to put people back to work by addressing our growing need to improve infrastructure.

Some borrowing is needed now since the state has put these entities into a distressed position.
Please refer to my answer above relative to your question on SB512. By accomplishing this we would have available funds to pay bills in the normal course of state activity. Our vendors then would not have to borrow or layoff current employees.
Given our history of excessive borrowing, many are reluctant to see the State acquire more debt. However, some targeted borrowing to pay down old bills could save the taxpayers money in the long run. School districts, library boards, and other local government entities are being forced to take out loans right now to cover the holes in their budgets that have been created by the State's inability to pay bills. The State could get a much more favorable interest rate by borrowing on the front end and paying off debts to local governments immediately. In other words, a single borrowing plan by the State will ultimately cost the taxpayers of Illinois less than hundreds of smaller loans taken out by individual local governments.
Given the current economic crisis in Illinois, it is not feasible to let the income tax increase expire at this time. We must also broaden the corporate income tax base. Doing so would increase revenue, promote a better business environment and lighten the burden on small businesses who we need hiring to put people back to work.

Legislators should stay out of the contracts with organized labor, enough damage has been done already.
Ultimately, the Governor is the chief executive and his office must take the lead in negotiating collective bargaining agreements. But it is important that the Governor and his staff not operate in a vacuum. Because the General Assembly appropriates the funding for employee contracts, the Governor must work in much closer collaboration with the Legislature. A representative of the General Assembly should be present at negotiations, and the Governor and General Assembly should share projections on contract costs and whether future revenues will sufficiently cover salary growth. We don't need a repeat of the AFSCME contract agreement the Governor signed last year, which the legislature could not fully fund.
I am not convinced such a proposal is viable.

I support gambling expansion at a moderate and responsible pace. I believe casino expansion partnership with the state, not city, would share revenues agreed upon based on services and impact for the City of Chicago. As history shows, the self-policing by the city is non-existant. Oversight should remain with the gaming/racing boards.
Horse racing should or could piggyback the lottery machines and slots and pari-mutuel machines shouldor could be allowed at the airports.
I support a taxpayer-owned casino in the downtown Chicago area. Revenue from this casino should be used to offset our massive unfunded pension liability. If in the future pension funds are stabilized, then revenue should fund infrastructure improvements.
Casino gambling is not a panacea for our budget troubles. Leadership in the House and Senate should ensure that a gaming bill does not come with legislative pork that dilutes the impact of the revenue stream. While any gaming bill is certain to include more than just a Chicago casino, I believe all expansion should be done in moderation as nationwide gaming revenues have been declining.
While I only support bringing casinos to Chicago in designated and targeted areas -- whether we like it or not, our residents do gamble. Our state loses potential revenue every time someone goes out of state to do so. With our current budgetary challenges, we cannot afford to turn our back on that potential source of revenue.

There needs to be serious consideration towards Illinois ethics and campaign laws. I support the law that limits contributions which places caps on the amount that can be contributed. Large contributions may put the candidate in a position that may be at odds with interests of the voters.
The most recent changes to ethics and campaign finance laws are a strong first step. In some cases however, the limits are excessively high. I support capping what state party leaders can donate during a general election and support reducing the caps on what political party committees can contribute during primary elections.
While I do believe in political parties' role in educating voters, I am open to limiting the amount spent on elections. With all of the budgetary, economic, and educational issues facing our state, it is not an immediate priority for me.

Yes, please refer to my earlier statements and responses.
I am in favor of instituting a progressive income tax; however, every citizen must pay something so that we are all stakeholders in our state's economic good health.

Spending should be limited to state services not pork projects until deficits are under control and pensions are fully funded. The property tax system is flawed, confusing many Illinois tax payers. It should be simplified and based upon a simple and direct percentage formula that is easier for the tax payers to understand.
Funding education through property tax has failed. Illinois should shift to a graduated income tax system to fund public education. This will distribute resources more equitably and improve schools throughout the State.
Nothing is more important to me than ensuring all our children receive a world-class education. We must prioritize spending, reform the tax code in a manner that generates sufficient revenue for the state to do so.

Marriage is between a man and a woman, the state allows for civil unions and that is adequate.
I support the civil unions law that was enacted by the state last year.
I was raised and am a practicing Catholic; however, as a state, we have an ethical and constitutional obligation to offer the same benefits and protections to every citizen.

Students at the University of Massachusetts at Dartmouth and three people who bought marijuana from Dzhokhar who did not want to be named told the Boston Globe that Dzhokha "earned at least some cash selling marijuana." Another person said "there was a permanent stench of marijuana in his room." Dzhokhar reportedly sold what he did not smoke himself, according to friends. The students describe Dzhokhar, who received a $2,500 scholarship from the city of Cambridge, as a scholarship student who had money for food and expenses but did not live a lavish lifestyle. He "drove his father's green 1999 Honda Civic" and also may have had a "mysterious" side business helping friends fix cars.

It takes creativity to use whole pumpkin
By Judy Buchenot For Sun-Times Media November 5, 2013 10:01AM
Ann Mitzkus-Chen gets ready to cut the cap off her pumpkin to make an interesting roasted pumpkin casserole. | Judy Buchenot
The Food Swap
What: Food Swap, a time for home cooks to trade homemade food, drinks and garden products. Breads, home-canned goods, jellies and all other items are welcome. All items must be homemade, homegrown or foraged.
When: 7 to 9 p.m. Nov. 14
Where: McDonald Farm, Clow House, 10S404 Knoch Knolls Road, Naperville
Who: Event is hosted by Homegrown Naperville, a group of friends who are passionate about growing and sharing real food. The swap is open to all who wish to participate
Web: Learn more about the food swap concept at foodswapnetwork.com. RSVP to participate by emailing email@example.com.
Article Extras
Ann Mitzkus-Chen took on a personal challenge last summer to waste no food. She purchased a CSA (Community Supported Agriculture) share through the Green Earth Institute, which meant that every other week she received close to a bushel of produce grown by local farmers.
"I decided to try to eat everything in the box," the Naperville resident says.
And when she says everything, she means everything, including the leafy green tops to beets and radishes.
"My goal was to eat everything, including the greens as well as the roots," she says.
Needless to say, Mitzkus-Chen, 39, came up with some creative with ways to enjoy the produce.
"I pureed the green spinach, collard greens and beet tops to make a soup," she says.
She found that, if she added caramelized onions to the greens, it gave the soup more substance.
"I thickened the soup with rice or oatmeal, and it was very creamy."
She also found that radish tops were tasty when sautéed in a little olive oil and garlic. Carrot tops were the only item that she ended up tossing out.
"They were just too stringy to use," she sighs.
One of the benefits of her challenge was tasting new foods.
"It pushed me to try new things I might never have tried, like kale," she says. "I found that kale is very good when stir fried with a little olive oil, garlic and salt."
She didn't think she would care for the Brussels sprouts but found that when they were roasted, the exterior caramelized — making them very flavorful.
Cultural influence
Mitzkus-Chen was born in Taiwan and grew up eating foods prepared from whole natural ingredients.
"My mother made everything from scratch," she says. "We never ate fast food or prepared dishes. I think the Chinese culture is one of the few cultures that still cooks from whole ingredients. My parents live in Taipei and go to the fresh market every day."
Although she grew up enjoying Chinese cuisine, Mitzkus-Chen enjoys cooking foods from many cultures.
"My husband is German, so we cook things he likes, too," she says. "We try all different cuisines. I think the key to eating well is diversity."
Mitzkus-Chen tries to keep a supply of lemons, Parmesan cheese, ginger root, onions, potatoes, cilantro and Indian spices in her pantry. She finds these flavors to be helpful in creating new dishes
After meeting members of Home Grown Naperville at a CSA potluck, Mitzkus-Chen joined the group that shares her passion for eating locally grown natural foods. She is looking forward to their semi-annual food swap Nov. 14, when members share their home-canned and baked foods.
Her adventuresome approach to eating has taken her on some interesting cooking journeys. When she makes a recipe she enjoys, she often varies the ingredients the next time she makes it. For example, she made a ginger lime pineapple crisp that she liked. The next time she made it, she used apples in place of the pineapple and liked the dish even more.
"I like recipes where I can switch out ingredients," she says.
Mitzkus-Chen shares the recipe for the ginger lime apple crisp and for a spectacular roasted pumpkin that can be served whole at the table for a memorable presentation.
"Bringing the whole filled pumpkin to the table is exciting. The pumpkin can be sliced to serve or the filling and pumpkin can be scooped out together," she says. "I have tried many variations of the ingredients in the pumpkin with interesting results."
Pumpkin Stuffed With Everything Good
3-pound pumpkin
Salt and freshly ground pepper
1/4 pound stale bread
1/4 pound cheese, such as Gruyere, Emmenthal, cheddar or a combination
4 strips bacon
1/2 pound onions
1/4 cup snipped fresh chives
1 tablespoon minced fresh thyme
1/3 cup heavy cream
Pinch of freshly grated nutmeg
Line a baking sheet with a silicone baking mat or parchment paper. Cut a cap out of the top of the pumpkin like when making a jack-o-lantern. Clear away the seeds and strings from the cap and from inside the pumpkin. Season the inside of the pumpkin generously with salt and pepper, and place on the baking sheet.
Thinly slice the bread and cut into 1/2-inch chunks. Cut cheese into 1/2-inch chunks. Caramelize the onions being sure not to burn them. Fry bacon until crisp and crumble. Toss together the bread, cheese, caramelized onions, bacon and herbs. Season to taste with pepper. Pack the mix into the pumpkin. Mix the cream with the nutmeg and salt and pepper to taste. Pour into the pumpkin. Place cap back on the pumpkin and bake at 350 degrees. Bake 90 to 120 minutes.
The inside mixture should be bubbling, and the pumpkin flesh should be very tender when pumpkin is done. If desired, remove the cap during the last 20 minutes of baking to reduce liquid and brown the stuffing. Carefully transport pumpkin to the table. It will be very wobbly. Cut into wedges to serve or scoop out portions of pumpkin and filling.
Vary filling by using cooked rice instead of bread or add cooked vegetables, cooked sausage, ham or nuts to the filling.
Apple-Ginger Brown Sugar Crisp
1/2 cup packed dark brown sugar
1/2 cup unbleached flour
1/4 cup old-fashioned rolled oats (not quick-cooking or instant)
1/4 cup unsalted butter
Pinch freshly grated nutmeg
Kosher salt
1 pound apples
1 tablespoon fresh lime juice
1 teaspoon fresh lime zest
1 tablespoon finely grated fresh ginger
Cut butter into 1/4-inch chunks. Combine the brown sugar, flour, oats, butter, nutmeg and 1/8 teaspoon salt in a medium bowl. Using your fingers, rub in the butter until the mixtures is about the size of small peas and resembles coarse breadcrumbs. It should hold together when squeezed. Refrigerate, uncovered, while making the filling.
Dice apples into 1/2-inch cubes and place in an 8-inch square baking dish. Sprinkle with lime juice, lime zest and grated ginger. Toss to mix. Sprinkle the crumb mixture evenly over the top.
Cover with foil and bake for 20 minutes at 375 degrees. Remove the foil and continue to bake until the fruit is bubbling around the edges and the top is golden-brown and crisp, about 10 to 15 minutes more. Let cool for at least 15 minutes before serving.
For variety, pineapples, pears, stone fruits, and butternut squash can be used in place of the apples.
Ann's Culinary Cue
Don't waste bread. As slices become stale, cut them into cubes and allow them to dry completely. Use the cubes to make bread crumbs, panzanella bread salad, bread pudding or stuffing.

SANTO DA SERRA, Madeira Islands (AP) -- Scotland's Craig Lee took a one-stroke lead over American Peter Uihlein and Chile's Mark Tullo on Friday during the suspended second round of the Madeira Islands Open.
Lee shot a 4-under 68 to reach 9-under 135 at Santo da Serra Golf Club.
Uihlein, the former Oklahoma State star who won the 2010 U.S. Amateur, settled for a 64 after playing the first 12 holes in 10 under with an eagle and eight birdies. He bogeyed Nos. 15 and 16.
"It was really fun," said Uihlein, the youngest son of Acushnet chief executive Wally Uihlein. "I hit it well, I putted well and the first 12 holes were pretty special. It was just drawing out perfect. You have a game plan and you just execute it and that's all it was in those first 12 holes.
"There were some really hard holes on the way in and it got very cold at the end so I'm glad to be done. Today I just tried to put a little more focus on my scoring clubs and really put the ball in the right spot on the greens. ... I never really thought about the 59 to be honest, because I knew the holes coming in were tough but it was a really good day."
Tullo had a 69. France's Thomas Levet was fourth at 7 under after a 67.

Toughing It Out in Afghanistan
Preview (read now) Add to my own site Give this ebook to a friend Add to my wishlist Author's page Publisher's page
moreIs Afghanistan another Vietnam, a quagmire that the United States should escape as soon as possible? Or is it a crucial war than can and must be won? The daily news is sobering, with its continued attacks on NATO troops and a resurgent Taliban. In "Toughing It Out in Afghanistan", however, Michael O'Hanlon and Hassina Sherjan show that all is not lost-far from it. The authors acknowledge current difficulties in Afghanistan but also explicate how the war-torn country can emerge as a stable sovereign nation, free from the yoke of the Taliban and al Qaeda. "Toughing It Out in Afghanistan" is designed to help the reader understand more about the Afghan nation and to inform international debate on how to approach the conflict there in 2010 and 2011. The stakes are very high, and O'Hanlon and Sherjan are not Pollyannas. They acknowledge that the war could still be lost. But they consider the prospects for establishing a reasonably stable and functional Afghan state to be much better than is commonly perceived. Drawing on personal experience, eyewitness accounts, and the Brookings Institution's Afghanistan Index, O'Hanlon and Sherjan present the current lay of the land. less

Liverpool opened up the Premier League season with a narrow 1-0 win over Stoke City at Anfield on Saturday lunchtime. Daniel Sturridge scored the only goal of the game shortly before half time but it was Philippe Coutinho who was the creative hub for the Reds once again.
The Brazilian picked up where he finished last season, showing a silky touch and a keen eye for a pass. Watch individual highlights of Coutinho's display here:

As we already have got cissokho we should get that cracker of playeer William and if possible try to get another center-back like sakho as he would be available for just 6 mill because of his contract then there is no way arsenal can finish above us it would be between spurs , liverpool and chelsea for remaining two spots for champions league as I think there would be no stopping both manchesters, but if Bale leaves spurs then I dont see them making top 4

1199cc, 109bhp, 136mph, Insurance group 15
There was a time when Yamaha's Tenere range of bikes ruled the earth, literally. As desert and dirt blasters for Paris-Dakar like competitions, the name Tenere became synonymous with adventure and off-road riding. Then it all went quiet and BMW took on the mantle of Adventure bike champions with its modern-day GS range.Yamaha's revival started with the 2008 XT660Z Tenere, ...
1203cc, 103bhp, 131mph, Insurance group 15
Reworking an existing model to make an all-together different model can work, as Suzuki's Bandit and V-Strom range has shown – add panniers, taller screen, other accessories and they become good budget touring bikes. Buell's take on this is to rework the Ulysses adventure-based bike, add small panniers and top box and hope they can get away with an archaic ...
992cc, 85bhp, 134mph, Insurance group 15
The Ducati Multistrada 1000DS is a bold attempt at tourer/town/sportster hybrid motorcycle and mostly hits the mark. Whacky styling masks a truly versatile motorcycle mixed with Italian style. Low screen, smallish tank and limited performance from Ducati Multistrada 1000DS' air-cooled two-valve engine are only slight niggles. That and its ugly face.
1130cc, 85bhp, 130mph, Insurance group 13
BMW's R1150GS is heavy, pricey and relatively slow. It's also an expensive, imperfectly finished motorcycle and the engine design is something Noah would recognise. On the flip-side the BMW R1150GS handles brilliantly, will run forever and will cheerfully see over 200 miles from the motorcycle's tank.
1085cc, 80bhp, 122mph, Insurance group 13
On the face of it the BMW R1100GS isn't a particularly convincing motorcycle to drop your cash on. It's underpowered, expensive, looks ungainly and the gearbox is, frankly, poor. However, if you had to bet the house and kids on a motorcycle to get to Timbuktoo and back again (and show you a good time en route) the R1100GS would ...

Internet Explorer 8 takes longer than expected to start putting this here for ref while I restart pc
OK so I've installed XP SP3 with all the updates and IE8
now if I reboot the machine and startup IE8 it takes 45 seconds ish to open. I've never come across this before
no Antivirus or any 3rd party software installed yet, so its go me completely stumped.
Any one got an idea what it could be or how to fix this?
Cheers in advance
Internet Explorer 8 takes longer than expected to start putting this here for ref while I restart pc
Yep its the stupid addons! not sure which one mind.
installed the following which has been left enabled and works fine
flash, shockwave, google search
disabled the following
diagnose connection problem
windows messenger
enabled smart filter again
Machine also took 15 seconds less to boot, not sure how that would have interfered
Just encountered this problem myself. Recent MS Updates run and a few of our computers are now painfully slow to bring up IE8. thanks for the link.
I'm going to try and work my way through the advice to see if I can sort - or has anyone else already done this and isolated the add on that's causing the problem?
I thought it was something to do with the MS updates but now looking at the add ons I see good old Google cracked in three new ones today!!
Going to disable them and see if that works?

In a recent interview Robert Pattinson who plays vampire, Edward Cullen, in the blockbuster franchise "The Twilight Saga" said that he was bored with the mania surrounding the movies.
Talking to the New York Times the British heartthrob said he was very much looking forward to moving on and getting away from playing the part of Cullen in these movies.
"It can get a little boring. The good news is that the whole thing is done in seven months," he said.
While being heavily involved in "Twilight" Pattinson has also been able to work on other projects over the last number of years. These include the Salvador Dalí biopic, "Little Ashes" and romantic drama "Remember Me". He also has parts lined up in "Bel Ami", "Water for Elephants" and "Unbound Captives".

Used 2 ladders with pvc pipe to hold up clothes. Try to use tables instead of laying items on the ground.
They have a choice: they can live in my new world, or they can die in their old one." Daenerys Targaryen
I didn't start this thread to make people feel bad.
We had several tables lined up.
Each table had a price point and everything on that table started at that price. For example, we had a $15 Table, $10 Table, $5 Table, and a $1 Table.
Anything that didnt meet those price points were placed off to the side an labeled with a price.
Clothing was hung and priced at $3-4/each (we just wanted them gone).
Saturday everything was full price.
Sunday everything was half off in the morning, then cut-throat closer to the end.
The few things we didnt sell, we immediately put in hubby's truck and took to Goodwill. I did NOT want to haul stuff back into the house.

Review: Matthew Herbert Big Band Goodbye Swingtime
According to Duke Ellington, it don't mean a thing if it ain't got that swing. Such a declamatory statement should cause no insomnia for Matthew Herbert or those involved in his latest project. From the deftly brushed snares and lissome brass section of the opening "Turning Pages," the rhythmic fluidity of Herbert's big band is both plain to the ear and plainly pertinent. Herbert's personal beliefs are almost as well-known as his idiosyncratic working practices. Read more »

Chicago White Sox pitcher Monty Stratton is an affable long drink of water with an easy, whiplike delivery and a pitch so unhittable the young phenom racks up consecutive 15-win seasons. But Stratton's greatest victory doesn't come on the manicured green diamonds of our national pastime. James Stewart portrays Stratton, who loses a leg in an accident just as his career is on the rise...and whose triumph over despair and disability leads him to pitch again.
