NASHVILLE — Tennessee motorists would risk getting ticketed for letting pets sit in their laps while driving under a local lawmaker's bill that passed the House Transportation Committee on Tuesday.
Rep. Jim Cobb, R-Spring City, said his bill was intended to curb accidents, citing the story of a Nashville traffic fatality related to him by a former legislative secretary.
"One of her best friends was killed and the animal she was with was killed," Cobb said. "She was trying to maintain the dog while it was crawling around the vehicle."
Earlier, Cobb had Transportation Committee members amend the bill, which originally would have required any animal riding in the front portion of a vehicle be restrained by a harness, box, crate or passenger.
Cobb called the original version "ridiculous," saying the bill as drafted went too far.
Earlier, Rep. John Tidwell, D-New Johnsonville, said he thought the bill even with the amendment was over-reaching.
"I guess you know I'm the most rural of all of us up here, and a couple of things I've never done politically is vote against dogs and against children," he said.
It was then that Cobb related the story of the woman who had been killed. The bill was approved on a voice vote and now goes to the House Budget Subcommittee.
In other committee action, a bill sponsored by Rep. Vince Dean, R-East Ridge, that would let the state Transportation Department sell advertising on its HELP trucks ran into extensive questions from another Hamilton County lawmaker and was delayed.
Using wrecker services as an example, Rep. Richard Floyd, R-Chattanooga, said smaller companies could be put at an economic disadvantage. He noted "those vehicles belong to the taxpayers and also 6.3 million Tennessee people."
Dean said his bill is based on a Georgia law that appears to have worked without complaints. It would also raise $1 million in revenue for the department, he said. Dean told Floyd he would postpone the bill for several weeks.

I agree there should be no advertising on government vehicles or other property. The issue would be with what can be advertised? However, Not allowing advertising on municipal vehicles doesn't jive with Some government entities owning competing businesses such as Chattanooga owning two golf courses, a pharmacy, a hotel, a marina etc. etc. Why would the state prevent allowing and charging for advertising but allow ownership of businesses that compete with the private sector?

Opening Our Grandmother's Trunk by Pat Aronica
|Donna (front, center); Cathy, Leila, Pat Aronica, Mary Heilig,
family friend, Richie (middle row); Gil (back, center). c. 1948
at Uncle Fred and Aunt Betty's place in Bergen Beach, NY.
I can't remember the year, or exactly how old I was.
Mary (Hanna) Heilig and I had convinced Aunt Dot to let us look inside the trunk which contained our grandmother's belongings.
|Trunk shown in the Spring edition of Sear's 1906 catalog.
[Our grandmother, Mary Elizabeth [Fitzgerald] Merrill had died of the Spanish Influenza when our parents were still young children. Her husband survived another forty-seven years, forty-seven years in which he never ceased to mourn his loss.]
I can tell you that we were sworn to secrecy. We were never ever to tell "Pup" that Aunt Dot let us look inside the trunk. The look of shear terror on Aunt Dot's face was enough to let us know not to breathe a word to anyone.
|Dorothy aka Aunt Dot (top), Mary
[aka Lib & Pat's mother-to-be],
Gil, and Pup c. 1915 on the stoop
in Portsmouth, NH
[Pup was the name given to our grandfather when he was still a young husband and father. The name "Pup" was bestowed on him by his youngest daughter who had sat on the front porch, day after day, heralding his arrival for dinner. "Pop is home for supper." Many times later, the call became: "Pop is home for sup…" And then: "Pop … sup." Finally, my mother's announcement of her father's arrival to dinner was shortening to its final form, the name that we all came to call him: "Pup."]
Actually there were two trunks, but we were interested in the one that contained Mary Elizabeth's clothing. There were high buttoned shoes, one pair obviously newer then the other. They were still buttoned up to about where she could slip in and out easily. A special hook or tool was with the shoes. There were big hats, fans and gloves. Every thing was folded and placed very carefully as if it was just packed.
There was a blouse the color of a pale peach. It had pin tucks all along the bodice. These were ironed and still in place. The sleeves were long and the neck high. There were tiny buttons down the front. The fabric seemed to be cotton, but almost sheer. I do remember my mother telling us that she made most of her clothes, and she had a very strict schedule for days she did laundry, ironing and sewing. I can just imagine the time it would take to get those pin tucks ironed just so.
I seem to recall a skirt or two, either dark blue or black. There was some underwear, scarves, hankies … I don't recall any beads or jewelry.
There were aprons and housedresses. But it was that that peach blouse which made the most lasting impression.
The shoes were fun. I tried using the hook to unbutton one of the buttons. My attempt failed.
My mother did say that our grandmother used flat irons that were heated on the stove and were rotated as they cooled. It was especially hard in the summer months. My mother also said it was their mother that taught Aunt Dot how to sew.
I asked Mary Heilig to recall her impressions of what we found. Of course, everything we touched had to be placed right back to where it was. There was no time to open the other trunk. I understand it contained books, papers, maybe pictures but my sister Mary said she got to look inside it one day, but doesn't remember much.
Apparently, after helping Aunt Dot and Uncle Chuck to move, my brother Fred convinced them to get rid of the trunks as they were buggy and falling apart. It's too bad as they probably held some important papers, pictures, etc.

Why Didn't We Visit?
When I first became hooked on genealogy, I quickly focused on my mother's side of the family. Mom's grandparents must have been an integral part of the first couple of years of my life.
|My brother and I about 1947 on East 35th St.
near Flatbush Ave.
I remember walking from our apartment on Flatbush Avenue to their home on Albany Avenue in Brooklyn, N.Y. It was a perfect summer day, and I was feeling very happy. I was walking with my mother and brother. I remember I was wearing one of my prettier dresses and my perfect, white, Buster Brown shoes. We were passing a neighborhood park with a wrought iron fence. I forgot to watch my steps, and I smelled my mistake. I had stepped in dog poop, and my little white shoes were no longer perfect. I looked up at Mom, and I could tell she was very annoyed. I began to cry. This was not my first misadventure with dog poop. I had been repeatedly cautioned to watch my steps, but continued to get lost in the world around me or in my personal imaginings. And so I had erred again.
And whether or not it was this day or another, I can't quite recollect, we reached a familiar house, climbed a few steps, and Mom knocked on the door. It was opened by a woman who filled the entrance way, and she embraced each of us, smothering us with hugs and kisses. She was my Great Aunt Marie. I remember my brother trying to squeeze between Aunt Marie and the door jam, trying in vain to escape untouched past Aunt Marie's welcoming and overpowering embraces.
Once inside, all was somber. And it was made clear that we were not to make any noise. I remember being ushered into a room with a huge bed, standing so close to it, and my eyes just reaching the top of the mattress. A very old person was propped up on pillows. It seemed like I stood there for a long time. Eventually, we were ushered from the room, and …
That is all I can remember.
|Maria Augusta (Schulze) Bals
The very old person must have been my great grandmother, Auguste (Schulze) Bals, who died not many days after my second birthday.
After that day in 1947, I don't remember ever entering that house again, although I may have and just don't remember. My great grandfather lived six years thereafter, and I don't remember ever visiting him. I have wondered why I have no more memories of visiting my great-grandfather, Conrad Bals, after I was two years old. He was alive until I was 7 1/2 years old.
I asked my mother: "Why didn't we visit your grandfather?" She always side-stepped giving an answer. Now, I will never know why.

REMEMBERING CHAUNCEY STREET 15.Babies by Pat Aronica
|Jim and Fran with their first child, Jimmy (1951).
Jimmy was my parents's first grandchild.
My brother, Jim, and his wife, Fran, got married and had their first child, Jimmy, when I was ten or eleven years old. I was delighted to have a child in the family who I could watch. Eighteen months later, Karen was born. Fran had to be hospitalized after only three days. The children were left with my mother until Fran was better and able to care for them. I can remember running home from school so I would get there in time to feed the baby. She was the color of peaches and cream. Just beautiful. Anna and Billy's daughter was born a few weeks before Karen, but I didn't get to see her very often. Anna's mother watched her while Anna was at work. Billy was still in the service and stationed in Germany.
Dotsy and Lou weren't married quite a year when they had their first baby, Johnny. On their first anniversary, Dotsy and Lou went away for the weekend. They left Johnny with me (and of course, with Mom too.) I remember taking Johnny to Sunday Mass and holding him in my arms as if he belonged to me.

REMEMBERING CHAUNCEY STREET 13.Playing by Pat Aronica
|Freddy on a hot summer's day on Chauncey St. c. 1948
Chauncey St. was designated a PAL street for the summer. The street was closed to traffic. Delivery trucks, fruit men, and junkies were all diverted. The city provided camp organizers, games, craft materials, permission to use the fire hydrants, and mostly anything needed to keep the neighborhood kids busy for the summer. We had use of pick-up-sticks, jacks, art supplies, playing cards, and a shower attached to the fire hydrant. We would be outside from early mornings 'til the street lights turned on, unless, of course, our mothers called us in for meals. On especially hot nights, we were allowed to stay out 'til 9:00, as long as we stayed on the stoop.
My sister, Mary, was interested in dress design, and somehow she acquired "modeling dolls." They were similar to Barbie dolls, which we didn't have then. When I was sick or alone, I got permission to play with these dolls. Using scraps of fabric, scarves, and ribbons, I could design all sorts of elaborate outfits for these dolls.
|Patsy played Potsy
I'm sure everyone interested in games of this era has heard of stick ball, box ball, johnny on the pony, hop scotch, jump rope, street skating (with metal wheels), roller rink skating (with wooden wheels), hand ball, and on and on. We did not play hop scotch. Instead, we played a similar game called potsy. The boxes for potsy are arranged in a different configuration. To us, it was a very significant difference, like being a Dodger as opposed to being a Yankee fan.
Whenever a mother's clothesline broke, we would rejoice. The old clothesline became a new jump rope for the kids in the neighborhood. Never mind the poor mother. Her wash lay in the dirty alleyway, and it would have to be washed again, on a wooden scrub board by very chapped hands. Jump rope was a big sport. I can still turn double-dutch, although I don't think I could jump it anymore.

REMEMBERING CHAUNCEY STREET 12.Swimming and Skating by Pat Aronica
I remember the blizzard of 1947, when the city was at a standstill. The mountains of snow piled along the sidewalks were this kid's dream. I had a wooden sled. My brothers convinced me that it was far superior to the flexible flyers which the other kids had. I remember playing for hours on that sled. When our mittens got wet, we placed them on the radiators to dry. Meanwhile, we went outside with socks on our hands. This worked just fine.
Maybe once a year in the summer, we went to Coney Island. I remember my father taking us one time. Mostly my mother took us on those safaris to Coney Island. We were allowed one ride each on the Steeple Chase. Since I was too young or too afraid to go on it, or on the race horses, the cyclone, or on the slides, I got to go on the merry-go-round.
|Dotsy c. 1949.
Mostly, we went to Cypress Hills' swimming pool. We took the el train from Chauncey St. and Broadway Ave. After a couple of stops, we got off and were right by the pool. Most people didn't know, or maybe they have forgotten, about the roller skating rink that was in the back of the pool. It was part of the same recreation facility. Once we got to the pool, if the weather looked like rain, we would opt to skate.
Swimming was my preference, but my sister, Dot, loved to skate. She was very good at skating. As time went by, she would take me skating every weekend, sometimes on both Saturday and Sunday.
Dotsy could dance on the skates and was determined to master every glide, turn, and move possible. How she put up with me, I'll never know. I did learn a dance called the glide waltz. Once, Uncle Chuck was at the rink and was duly impressed with our performance. Of course, Dot just about carried me through the routine, so we would look good.
|Lou c. 1954
After a while, Dot learned where other rinks in the area were located. We travelled to Hillside Rink and the Empire Rink. Dotsy acquired a pair of competition skates and continued perfecting routines. In time, she met the floor guard at the Empire Rink. And here, entered her future love and husband, Lou.

The pilot reported that he was repositioning his floatplane from a land-based airport to a seaplane base. The takeoff was performed using a dolly, towed by a pickup truck with a 60-foot rope. He stated that the tow vehicle accelerated to flying speed; however, he prematurely rotated. The airplane did not have enough airspeed for the pilot to be able to maintain control. He climbed to an altitude of approximately 60 feet, stalled the airplane, and subsequently impacted the ground. The airplane received substantial damage to the wings and firewall. The recorded wind at a weather station three miles west of the accident airport, about the time of the accident, was variable at 5 knots. The pilot reported that the engine was operating properly and that there were no preimpact mechanical failures or malfunctions.

The Twins' final series at the Dome is inflated with more than nostalgia. Two down in the Central with three to play -- stranger things have happened.
Baker. Blackburn. Liriano. Perkins. Liriano. Swarzak. Make ya' famous.
Francisco Liriano gathered his first win of the season last night. It should come as no surprise that said victory coincided with Joe Mauer's return.

Our friends from SpiderLabs, issued a warning today on their blog about increased activity on their honeypots looking to exploit the old JCE (Joomla Content Editor) vulnerability.
JCE is a very popular component that can be found enabled on almost any Joomla site. It has had a few serious vulnerabilities in the past (around 2011 and 2012), and unfortunately we still see thousands of unpatched sites out there. In fact, we get to clean and disinfect many sites compromised through it every single day.
You can read SpiderLabs' full analysis here:
[Honeypot Alert] JCE Joomla Extension Attacks
And an old one we did on UnmaskParasites about the increased scans we started to see for it a few months ago:
If you run a Joomla site and haven't patched your site lately, please do it as soon as possible. If you are still on the Joomla 1.5.x branch, you need to do it today. There are exploits live in the wild for it, and if you have been lucky and didn't get hacked yet, it will happen soon.

This dressing is really good. I was looking for a replacement for artificial Kraft ranch dressing and this is a good alternative. I also enjoy Annie's green garlic dressing.

This is a great replacement for heavier ranch type dressings. Organic dressings at a reasonable price are hard to find in Japan. Will order again.
Another great annie's product

You can't go wrong with the Annie's naturals dressings. Great taste. Too bad that these are in glas bottles. Adds too much weight for international orders.

Elves gather at Warners
Thurber will write, direct and produce the feature, whose format is undetermined.
The original comic, which the Pinis initially self-published starting in 1978, followed a tribe of elves known as the Wolfriders in their attempts to survive and link with other dispersed elves on an Earth-like planet with two moons while on the lookout for tribes of humans and trolls, both of which acted as allies and enemies.
The series — which at certain points in its history was published by both Marvel and DC Comics — attracted a more mature audience as it went along, with scenes of battles and sexuality that were intense for that time.
Hollywood has long tried to adapt the series, and several attempts at an animated series or feature have been made over the years.
Courtenay Valenti is overseeing for Warners.
CAA-repped Thurber, a commercials director, broke through into features with the 2004 Ben Stiller hit "Dodgeball: A True Underdog Story." He also wrote and directed "The Mysteries of Pittsburgh," an adaptation of the Michael Chabon novel.
The Pinis are repped by RWSH and Hansen Literary. (partialdiff)

Rumer Willis and Chord Overstreet: New Couple Alert!by Hilton Hater at . Comments
It looks like Rumer Willis is Gleeking out.
The occasional actress and daughter of Bruce Willis and Demi Moore was spotted holding hands with new Glee cast member Chord Overstreet at a party held at Seth MacFarlane's house on Saturday night. They don't appear to be hiding their affection for each other, do they?
Willis ended her relationship with Micah Alberti just a few weeks ago, while Overstreet actually used to date Demi Lovato's older sister, Dallas.
He's come aboard Glee this season as Sam Evans, a football-playing singer. These two looks awfully smitten with each other and we wish them the best.
smitten? uhh, it looks like she's into him. he has this look of disgust on his face. and it doesn't even look like he's holding her hand, just she's holding his. she's trying to make the move on him and he's not having it it looks like xD
Haahah that last comment made my day...but yes he has the ugliest look on his face while she's just happy a boy wants to be near her. Kinda sad
If this is smitten what does true love look like. Chord has a look of disgust on his face and the way the are holding hands is totally unnatural. Weird. Very weird.
No offense but she is not the prettiest apple from the tree but as long as Chord is happy then I am fine
Shouldn't he be dating Demi?

We The People pay the salaries of public servants, who serve us and we are their masters. It is high time that they be on notice that we will watch them and lawfully record them while on duty and hold them accountable for any and all abuses of the public trust which is a privilege we bestow them from our good graces. We are their masters, not the other way around. We should never have to dread interactions with police, bureaucrats or anyone else on the public payroll. That´s un-American.

Couldn´t agree with the Federal Judge more--however, the right to record police is easily abused. When does the execution of this right turn into harassment and/or obstruction?In the inimitable words of Yul Brynner in The King and I "...it´s a puzzlement!"

The Police have a way of exercising control over the citizenry which admittedly is often not legal, however the people who find themselves victims of that sort of behavior by the Police are usually the Antonio Buehlers´ of the world, they try to get the Police dealing with the enemies of our society, the protectors of illegal aliens, Muslim activists who constantly try to create scenarios where our enemies are "seemingly" doing nothing wrong.In fairness to everyone I don´t think the Police simply pick on innocent neighborhood organizers walking down the street. Do you? What the Police are DEALING with, are mostly anti-societal punks playing all the angles. On the other hand no one seems to care about Politicians and government agencies who usurp their power at the expense of the citizens the Federal Judge claims to be protecting. Can you say Obama, Holder, Pelosi or Harry Reid boys and girls.

#1 I agree. I support cops and know they have a very tough often thankless job. But I´m sick of that attitude also, the shooting of dogs for no reason, the excessive use of force on the elderly and handicapped, telling innocent civilians what they can or can´t do often in violation of the law or they will get arrested. It has to stop. If the cops are not violating the law then they shouldn´t have any problem with being recorded. I believe all cops should wear cameras to avoid incomplete videos being used against them. Spend more money on individual cameras and less on military assault equipment. I´m concerned the Feds are turning our own police against us.

A small win for the good guys. I do feel for the cops in that everyone makes small mistakes in their jobs. Most of the time we are able to brush it over and press on. If someone were following me around with a camera and publishing every mistake it would be at the very least unnerving.Unfortunately, the police code of silence has caused it to swing so far the other direction that all mistakes and even deliberate criminal activity are hidden. Truly evil bullies are as protected as the guy who forgot to calibrate his radar.Besides, the courts have decided that we have no expectation of privacy in public, so the government can record us any time they want, Soviet style. Sauce for the goose is sauce for the gander.

Wiretapping? That´s good. Perhaps my cynicism is shaped by all the cops I´ve seen hiding with radar guns, trying to generate revenue. One day coming home from work I saw four cops on motorcycles in a 2 mile stretch, with people pulled over. These new "unmarked" motorcycles and riders are almost Robo-coppish.

I have friends and neighbors who are cops. It´s a hard job and not well-paid. Most of them deserve our respect. There is a certain type of personality, however, that too often gravitates to either law enforcement or the military where power can be exercised. Now, both are using psychological testing to avoid those individuals.

There is an increasing effort to militarize the police in this county with this administration giving military hardware to Police departments knowing they will not be refused. Along with all this is the attitude of invincibility and superiority that can develop in some officers. Of course this administration is also creating crisis after crisis to fan the flames as well, so this is a good decision, but expect to see more of this chaos on You Tube!

Cops have known its your word against theirs, and they are backed by their friends at court. The cameras are good thing that make it no longer your word against theirs, and forces them to obey the law as well.

The moral of this story is to only record the cops if you´re set up to automatically upload the video somewhere else besides the camera. And password protect the uploading. It´s honestly doing a favor to good cops for the bad ones to be publicly outed and hopefully reformed or fired. And since when is ignorance of the law an excuse - it´s not and the cops should be deeply ashamed for even trying that angle.

A couple of things come to mind in relation to this.First, If he has been arrested 3 times for legally filming police in the performance of their public duties then the police department and the city of Austin have violated the federal RICO statutes which require 3 predicate acts to establish. RICO allows for treble damages.Second: If the officers knew that what he was doing was legal (which the Judge says they should) and they arrested him anyway then they have committed the criminal act of "Official Oppression Under The Color Of Law". He can and should ask the Travis County D.A. to file criminal charges against the officers.I believe in the rule of law and that means those that enforce the law must abide by the law.

I have never been assaulted by a cop, stopped for no reason or questioned, or had my dog shot, had my door broken in, been accused of a crime I didn´t commit, Tased, pepper sprayed,handcuffed.......I´m a law abiding citizen and if you read the news, all cops are on the take, bullys, sociopaths,liars...etc. I reject that completely. Our police officers for the most part are just like you and me, they have families, they go to church, they want the society we live in to be a safe place.I encourage ride-alongs to meet the men and women we entrust with our safety. It´s free and it helps us better understand who and what they are.

Police Chiefs (to use a non-PC term) should obey the law and FIRE officers that cross the line in trying to prevent taping of their actions. Citizens shouldn´t be in the middle of the police business, but the 1A is not the 10A - it is FIRST of the Amendments for that reason, just as it is followed by the 2A regarding Right to Keep and Bear Arms.

#14; I wish I´d been able to film a cop at a bridge crossing years ago.A gate wouldn´t rise after I paid my toll and after several minutes a surely cop showed up and started to bark at me that I wasn´t in NJ anymore and told me to shut up. He was walking around my car telling me that ´we´ were always pulling ´stuff´ like this and he took out his handcuffs and approached me. My elderly mom and pop were in the car and he barked at them too, lest he arrest all of us.After several more minutes he raised the gate and let us pass.Cops aren´t just like you and me. They have to power to harass and arrest for any imagined slight.

The writer of this article misstated facts.The police were at the gas pumps as was the woman they abused. Bueller was across the street. He was capturing their actions by his cell phone but what brought him to his attention was the fact he was defending the woman and saw how the cops manhandled her which was nothing more than police brutality. The writer also failed to mention he had just returned from active duty in Afghanistan where he was a decorated serviceman.

Cops in NJ are very well paid, around $100,000 plus OT in many cases. The urban cops earn less while the cops out in the well-to-do suburbs do very well and get to drive around sealed off from the citizenry in their cruisers with little to do but prey on wayward out-of-towners. A recent survey of places for road trips in the USA listed NJ as eighth from the bottom. No wonder, as with 565 municipalities, and many having their own police force, the state is simply crawling with the constabulary. As someone mentioned above, Princeton, NJ comes to mind with a police presence that seems way too much. As for the dangers of the job, it doesn´t appear the top ten of US occupations.

HOLLYWOOD — Disney-owned ABC's new scripted cop drama "Detroit 1-8-7" dropped its "documentary" conceit as a result of the shooting death of a Detroit child during a police raid being recorded by cameras for a reality series on a Disney co-owned cable network.
In the wake of 7-year-old Aiyana Jones's death, some family members, and attorneys, suggested cops were playing to the camera crew during the raid.
"The main reason ...that was pretty real and pretty scary stuff," "Detroit 1-8-7" executive producer Jason Richman told TV critics about the May shooting death, when asked why the format on his fictional, scripted drama series had been changed.

Double Chocolate Raspberry Layer Cake
Community Recipe from
- Cake
- 3 ounce(s) fine-quality semisweet chocolate such as Callebaut
- 2 cup(s) hot brewed coffee
- 2 1/2 cup(s) all-purpose flour
- 1 1/2 cup(s) unsweetened cocoa powder (not Dutch process)
- 2 teaspoon(s) baking soda
- 3/4 teaspoon(s) baking powder
- 1 1/4 teaspoon(s) salt
- 3 eggs
- 3/4 cup(s) vegetable oil
- 1 1/2 cup(s) well-shaken buttermilk
- 3/4 teaspoon(s) vanilla
- ganache frosting
- 8 ounce(s) fine-quality semisweet chocolate such as Callebaut
- 1/2 cup(s) heavy cream
- 1 tablespoon(s) sugar
- 1 tablespoon(s) light corn syrup
- 2 tablespoon(s) unsalted butter, cut into small pieces
- Raspberry Filling
- 20 ounce(s) frozen raspberries
- 1/2 cup(s) sugar
- 2 tablespoon(s) cornstarch
- Preheat oven to 300F and butter three 9-inch round cake pans. Line the bottoms with rounds of parchment and butter the paper.
- Finely chop the chocolate and place in a medium-sized nonreactive bowl. Pour the hot coffee over the chocolate and let the mixture stand, stirring occasionally, until the chocolate is melted and the mixture is smooth.
- In a large bowl sift together sugar, flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, baking powder, and salt. In another large bowl with an electric mixer beat eggs until thickened slightly and lemon colored (about 3 minutes with a standing mixer or 5 minutes with a hand-held mixer). Slowly add the oil, buttermilk, vanilla, and melted chocolate mixture to eggs, beating until combined well. Add the sugar mixture and beat on medium speed until just combined well.
- Divide batter between pans and bake in middle of oven until a tester inserted in center comes out clean, 35-45 minutes.
- Cool the layers completely in pans on racks. Run a thin knife around edges of pans and invert layers onto racks. Carefully remove parchment paper and cool the layers completely. Cake layers may be made 1 day ahead and kept, wrapped well in plastic wrap, at room temperature, or can be frozen for several days.
- Make Raspberry Filling
- Puree the raspberries in a food processor, blender or immersion blender. Press the puree through a fine-mesh strainer with the back of a spoon, removing the seeds. Heat the puree in a small pot with the sugar and cornstarch until mixture boils, stirring constantly. As it boils, it should thicken quickly. Let it thicken to about the consistency of cold maple syrup.
- Let it cool complete before spreading it over two layers.
- Make frosting:
- Finely chop the chocolate. In a 1 1/2- to 2-quart saucepan bring cream, sugar, and corn syrup to a boil over moderately low heat, whisking until sugar is dissolved. Remove pan from heat and add chocolate, whisking until chocolate is melted. Cut butter into pieces and add to frosting, whisking until smooth.
- Transfer the frosting to a bowl and cool, stirring occasionally, until spreadable (depending on chocolate used, it may be necessary to chill frosting to spreadable consistency). If necessary, you can stir the ganache over a bowl of ice water to cool it off quickly and evenly.
- Spread frosting over the top and sides of the cake. The cake keeps, covered and chilled, 3 days. Bring cake to room temperature before serving.

In Iowa, Accountable Care Begins To Make A DifferenceLatest News Monday, November 25th, 2013
By Jenny Gold
Kaiser Health News Staff Writer
This Kaiser Health News story was produced in collaboration with
For years, Phil Bretthauer was one of the most expensive patients at Unity Point Health in Fort Dodge, a small town in western Iowa. The 70-year-old was frequently in and out of the hospital with heart attacks, COPD and prostate cancer.
"I always keep thinking, there's something else coming," says Bretthauer. "If it's going to happen, it's going to happen to me."
His primary care physician, Dr. Lincoln Wallace, was worried about the same thing. "It's a demoralizing position to be in to watch a guy like Phil go out the door and to anticipate that he'll have some event that will likely either threaten his life or end up in the end of his life, and you have little or no way to stop it from coming," says Wallace.
But this year, Unity Point – which includes multiple hospitals and doctor practices in Iowa — decided to do something to stop the expensive cycle of illness and readmission for patients like Bretthauer. The hospital signed on to become an accountable care organization, a Medicare program created by the Affordable Care Act that economists say could be a pathway to the holy grail of health care—providing better care at a lower cost.
Here's how it works: a group of doctors and hospitals get together to form a network responsible for taking care of a group of Medicare patients—in this case, about 9,000 Iowans. If the network can prove it's keeping those patients healthier and spending less money to do so, it gets to keep some of the savings. The ACO can then use that money to do things Medicare doesn't usually cover—like reaching out more to patients at home. But if the ACO does not succeed, it may face a financial penalty.

A television episode centered around a main character's birthday with no mention of his/her new age.
A staple in most classic sitcoms and animated television programs is the "ageless birthday episode." This is an episode that centers around a specific character's birthday but never mentions the character's new age. If this character's actual age is part of the show's status quo (see: Status Quo Is God), then you can expect his/her age to remain the same even after the "birthday episode." The inevitable numerous guests (see: 24 Hour Party People) and fancy decorations at his/her birthday party raise even more curiosity as to what this character's age is, as such a party would only seem to make sense during a monumental birthday like his/her 21st or 40th.

A little about me...
I am a lively, spunky, energetic, entrepreneur who has owned my business for 15 years. I love music, dancing, theater, concerts and dining with positive people. I love to dress well on a budget and make a male proud to be seen with me and I wish him to have that same sense of pride. Navigated the many ups and downs of life and find that I cannot judge anyone for their journey thus far. Life is tough and we don't all handle it perfectly. I am committed to my family and my faith. I have loved and lost and am looking forward to love again.
About the one I'm looking for...
I want to laugh and enjoy activities and family. I am looking for a peaceful relationship with an outgoing, gentle, self assured, non- smoker, Christian with a playful spirit and deep thoughts. I am looking to enjoy a relationship that is trustworthy and easy. I am not really looking for marriage at this time at all. I would like a monogamous partner who I can respect and has respect for me. This partner would be professional and operate with honesty and integrity. I am a social drinker, a non smoker, and can handle myself in anything from a high brow affair to a bit of time on the farm. I have a very diverse background and have travelled only on the many roads of life. I am looking to meet someone who does not take themselves too seriously but knows the value of a serious relationship.
I'd just like to add...
I don't have the perfectly sculpted body with blonde hair , et al. I hope there are realistic gentlemen on this site that are looking for reality rather than a fantasy. I'm sure I am I hope you are too.
P.S. If I have something on this website in this writing that is offensive or a turn off will you take the time to share your thoughts with me..... Tell me what I'm doing wrong!!!

FLORHAM PARK, N.J.— Brandon Marshall thinks Darrelle Revis has something in common with Michael Jordan.
No, not jaw-dropping dunking ability. The Miami Dolphins wide receiver told New York reporters on a conference call Wednesday that the Jets' Pro Bowl cornerback receives preferential treatment from officials.
Revis was defending Marshall on Oct. 17 when he intercepted a pass from Matt Moore and returned it 100 yards for a touchdown in the Jets' 24-6 win. Marshall, who'll face Revis again Sunday at Miami, implied that Revis committed a defensive pass interference penalty on the play.
"My technique could've been better, but at the same time, I think they gave him 'the Jordan Rule,'" Marshall said. "You get a little close to Michael Jordan, they're going to call a foul. It works that way in football. Some guys you know they are scared to throw the flag on, and he may be getting that rule."
Marshall added that one would've been thrown "nine times out of 10" if someone other than Revis covered him.
"I am one of the faces of football, but it's not as big as Darrelle's," Marshall said, "so when they have to pick, they pick Darrelle."
Marshall has 77 catches for 1,177 yards and six touchdowns, and was selected for the Pro Bowl. He said he has noticed in his film study that teams appear to be throwing in Revis' direction more than in previous years.
"Darrelle is one of the best corners in the league right now, but he's still human," he said. "I look at my matchup against Darrelle and it reminds me of a boxing match. It's 12 rounds. It's a fight. We're both physical players, we're both tough, smart players and it's fun. I love competing versus the best and look forward to the challenge again this week."
Marshall added that he and Revis have a "cool" relationship off the field and they "go at each other" during games, but don't cheap shot each other or talk trash.
The Dolphins wide receiver clearly isn't afraid to speak his mind, though. When he was asked about how much the loss of safety Jim Leonhard means to the Jets' defense, Marshall said Brodney Pool and "No. 33" were doing a good job in his absence.
"What's 33's name?" Marshall then asked.
He was told it's Eric Smith, and was then asked what he thought of his play this season.
"He's got to get Cruz on that play, man," Marshall said, laughing. "He's got to make that play."
Marshall was referring to the 99-yard touchdown reception last Saturday by the Giants' Victor Cruz, who hurdled a diving tackle attempt by Smith on his way to the end zone.
Before the teams' last meeting, Marshall promised to get kicked out of the game by getting into a fight. Instead, he played the whole game — and he has no grand plans for this one.
''I was thinking about getting kicked out again, but I'm looking forward to next season," Marshall said. "I don't want to start the home opener at home suspended."

TAMPA, Fla. (AP) - The Republican Party will delay the bulk of its convention until Tuesday afternoon because of the severe weather forecast from Isaac.
That's according to Republican National Committee Chairman Reince Priebus.
Priebus says the convention will convene briefly Monday and then immediately recess until Tuesday afternoon, once the storm is expected to have passed.
He says in a statement that the party made the decision after consulting with Florida Gov. Rick Scott and federal and local emergency officials.

Sin Cara is going to be making his return to the wrestling ring soon, but it will not be for WWE. The masked star is set to work a show on February 1, 2014 down in Mexico, which is a further sign that a contract extension with WWE is not in the works.
While the initial plans had him working a match against Sin Cara, WWE may have changed their mind on how to use Rey Mysterio at Wrestlemania 30. There are those within the company that are now leaning towards him working a match against Alberto Del Rio with his mask on the line.
Dixie Carter placed a clue on Twitter about the new arrivals by writing the initials "DR" and "EE", which prompted Jeremy Borash to guess that it was Dusty Rhodes and Eric Embry. The widespread speculation is that it is Davey Richards and Eddie Edwards.
In a video, Dixie Carter revealed to Jeremy Borash that NFL star Pacman Jones is the former world champion returning to Impact Wrestling this week.

First Sgt. Nancy Morin keeps alcoholic energy drinks on her desk at work--not because she drinks them, but because she hopes someone will ask her about them, particularly parents.
The drinks--with cool-sounding names such as Joose and Four Loko--look a lot like the caffeinated energy drinks that are so popular with young adults.
But some of the drinks are loaded not just with caffeine, but with as much alcohol as you'd find in four beers.
"Most parents are shocked to find that they are alcohol because of the packaging," said Morin of the Stafford County Sheriff's Office. "They look just like the regular energy drinks, and they are sold right next to them."
The drinks come in enticing flavors such as watermelon, blue raspberry and fruit punch. They're classified as beer under Virginia law, and sold at convenience stores such as the William Street Market in Fredericksburg.
The manager there said the drinks--especially those with the highest alcohol content--are extremely popular among young customers.
"College kids love them," he said, asking not to be named. "They go out in threes and fours."
For many years, Sparks, made by MillerCoors, was one of the most widely recognized alcoholic energy drinks. It boasted a fizzy orange flavor, 6 percent to 8 percent alcohol and 215 milligrams of caffeine.
But in 2008, a group of attorneys general from states including California and
Sparks is now strictly alcoholic, stripping it of the ability to keep people awake and active who might otherwise get drowsy from the alcohol.
As part of the deal, the company also agreed to stop targeting a young audience in its ad campaigns.
But the deal had an unintended result: Several new alcoholic energy drinks appeared on the market, notably Joose and Four Loko. Put out by United Brands and Phusion Products, respectively, these drinks have higher alcohol contents than Sparks and an undisclosed amount of caffeine.
Since the drinks are not regulated by the FDA, the makers are not required to say how much caffeine they contain.
The drinks are "hugely popular" among young adults, said Michael Emmons, a senior at Virginia Commonwealth University.
Along with alcohol and caffeine, ingredients commonly found in alcoholic energy drinks include ginseng, guarana and taurine.
Taurine is an amino acid that occurs naturally in the body. Guarana is a small berry that has one of the highest caffeine contents of all plants (7 percent).
Ginseng has been used for thousands of years
"I don't know if it's safe to be drinking it in such quantities," local registered dietitian Nancy Farrell said.
Farrell said the effects of these ingredients have not been sufficiently studied and their effects in large quantities--and mixed with alcohol and caffeine--need further review before they could be deemed safe to consume.

Quick quotes: Gordon Freeman is not dead, says Valve
"We are not done with Gordon Freeman's adventures. I have nothing other than that to tell you today, but hang in there with us." – Doug Lombardi, Valve Software, speaking to Ausgamers.

There's no way they can let him die anyway!
I had pretty much completely forgotten about Half Life Episode 3/Half Life 3 until I saw this post. Where is it!?
I can't even believe they're still making it. Surely it'll be part of HL3, or whatever it's going to be?
i say it again: i havent played ep 1 or 2 at all, coz i said im gonna wait for the 3rd and play them straight in a row.
Im still standing by my word!
How can you kill an iconic character anyway? Freeman is in the history books.
Famous beardie comments on this story.
I'm not sure that they are making episode 3. I think they are making Next Source Engine and Counter Strike with Half-Life 3.
@mojo Is that a good idea? ep 1 and 2 will probably be showing their age by now.
If we will trust in Valve then we will see some serious shit. =]
8: yeah i know. I can take it.
With Portal 2 in wraps……..I'm hoping for Half Life 3 new engine reveal at E3!!!!
@7 Gabe Newell's said before that the episodes are Half-Life 3.
Quite the opposite, actually. They've said a Half-Life 3 will arrive after Episode Three or whenever the episodes end. Either way, the episodes aren't Half-Life 3.
The Right Man at No Place can make no difference, Valve.
@7 I completely agree with you
Episode 3 would have to be in an all new engine otherwise it'll be severely outdated. My point being I think they're gonna skip Episode 3, and conclude the whole thing with HL3. Fuck episode 1 and 2 (granted 2 was awesome), they're like expansions to HL2 and always felt that way to me, despite what Newell said about them being "part 3″.
@13 Actually they did say at one point that the episodes were instead of making a whole new game. As they put it, instead of waiting another 5 or so years for a full new game they would bring 3 episodes out in shorter time span and they did say they probz should have named them Half Life 3:Episode 1 & 2. That was a while ago so they've probz decided to go the Half Life 3 way instead.
Ep2 ended on such a cliff hanger, i've been waiting over 3 years to what happens next!

Green Day
The link brings up a 404 page not found error message. May be because I am in Canada though. I will head to Fox Sports and hope for the best. I'm dying to see this!
I just love this baseball photo. I hope you are enjoying time with your family and friends and we will be here for you when you return to touring!!! Cheers from Canada!
Stupid sports network is showing the game, but didn't show the ceremonial pitch! Aarrrgh! I hope we can get it here later. I guess they probably won't show the fireworks either :(. I hope everyone who can be there has a great time! The network would have had better ratings if they had shown Green Day!
I wish I could be there, but California is a long way from Ontario, Canada. I hope you have a fantastic time!
I can't seem to be able to access the article so will have to buy the magazine. Oh well, it will add to my collection of magazines featuring the boys!


text: Final Rasmussen Virginia Poll: Romney Up Two Print article Send a Tip by Tony Lee 5 Nov 2012 post a comment Mitt Romney leads President Barack Obama by two points in Virginia in the final Rasmussen Reports poll before Election Day. Governor Romney maintains 50% of support from Virginians and leads Obama by 21 points among unaffiliated voters. The poll found Romney leading Obama 50%-48% among likely voters. The GOP presidential candidate leads Obama by 21 points (58%-37%) among Virginia's unaffiliated -- or independent -- voters and has the support of 90% of the state's Republicans. He leads Obama on the economy by six points and on national security and energy policy by two points. Only 19% of voters in Virginia think the economy is "good or excellent," and 42% describe the economy as poor. Romney also has a better favorable/unfavorable rating (50/47) than Obama (50/49). Rasmussen surveyed 750 likely voters in Virginia on November 4, and the poll's margin of error is +/- four percentage points.

Formula One boss Bernie Ecclestone may find himself in legal trouble in Germany over allegations that he bribed a bank official $50 million. According to Yahoo Sports' European arm, prosecutors are currently gathering evidence against the F1 honcho.
The would-be charges center around the deal that led CVC Capital Partners to own F1. The courts say that Gerhard Gribkowsky, who worked with CVC Capital Partners, deposited $50 million into an Austrian account in order to avoid paying taxes on the funds. Prosecutors are currently trying to tie Eccelstone, who is currently employed by CVC as the head of F1, to that money.
Not surprisingly, Eccelstone is denying the accusations, saying that he's done everything in his power to work with investigators on the matter, but that as far as he knows, there are no problems. Gribkowsky, meanwhile, is currently being held in jail on charges of tax evasion, corruption and fraud.

This is, perhaps, Nantucket Nectars most sophisticated tasting product to date. Featuring 20% juice (consisting of peach, carrot, orange, pear, and peach) this product has a very natural tasting fruit base and mild hints of carrot. What makes this beverage different? Nantucket Nectars has added a splash of ginger, which gives the product a very mild spice. Overall a great product!
