Here's how to do it without the lift operator seeing you have a shnowball:
1. Get in the lift line. (Or do the follwing steps before entering the line.)
2. Make a shnowball if you're further back in the line (out of the operator's sight.)
3. Place your shnowball(s) in your binding and fold the highback down over the top to conceal it/them while you get on the lift.
4. Enjoy. (BUT DO NOT THROW AT OTHER SNOWBOARDERS!* The cool thing about this is that skiers don't have bindings like us, so they simply cannot have their shnowballs on the lift...therefore, we have gained yet ANOTHER advantage over them! We must have a feast to celebrate this victory!)
*Unless they are doing the annoying group-sit thing as mentioned above.
Or you could just do it the common way, by using the snow on your board to make shnowballs while on the lift. But by doing that you're not guaranteed to get the perfect shnowball, of course.
Whenever I'm with a tiny person I tell them ridiculous stories that make no sense at all and insist that I'm telling the truth (unless his or her parent is there xD)
For some reason I've never dropped snowballs, but I've shaken snow off of my board. Never again.
I've only seen someone jump once and it was some guy whose friend bet him $5 and both of them were sitting next to me.
He jumped but never got the money :/

Texas received the go-ahead Tuesday to cut off Planned Parenthood funding, pending an October trial. It's the latest legal twist in the ongoing Women's Health Program funding court drama.
Since the Women's Health Program was formed in 2005, taxpayer money never funded abortion providers. Last year, the Texas legislature took the measure a step further when it reauthorized the law and banned organizations affiliated with abortion providers from receiving state subsidies.
Nine Planned Parenthood clinics--which do not provide abortions--filed suit, claiming the law violates their First Amendment rights. Attorney General Greg Abbott argued the state gets to determine how state money is spent.
The plaintiffs won that round. Planned Parenthood received a temporary injunction, blocking the enforcement of the law. The federal judge in Austin even went one step further, saying there was sufficient evidence the state's law is unconstitutional.
Tuesday, however, the 5th Circuit Court of Appeals dealt another reversal. In a 2-1 vote, the three-judge panel overturned the injunction, freeing Texas to cut off funding.
Gov. Rick Perry has insisted that if the state is forced to include Planned Parenthood in the WHP, it will shut down the program altogether. Perry has said the state would find another way to pay for low-income women's health programs.
The trial is set for October. Federal Judge Lee Yaekel warned both sides a decision likely won't be reached before Nov. 1, which is when the state had said it would eliminate the program.

SALEM, Ore. (AP) - An Oregon woman will be the first openly lesbian lawmaker to lead a state legislative chamber in the U.S.
Democrats in the state House Thursday night chose Rep. Tina Kotek of Portland to be the next speaker. The decision must be formally ratified in January.
Kotek's selection notches another milestone from an election that brought a series of victories to the gay community. Voters last week elected the first openly gay U.S. senator and the first bisexual member of Congress.
Kotek will be the first gay woman to get the top job in a legislative chamber.
Gay leaders will also control the House or Senate in four other states: Washington, California, Colorado and Rhode Island. The Gay and Lesbian Victory Fund says that's more than ever before and up from two before the election.

Foresight – Based on Centos 7
Foresight Linux will be based on Centos 7. We will have a stable core and maintained for years.We will have whole centos main repository available and whole epel 7. We will have own repository for additional packages and packages that we need to tweak, for fitting into foresight and make it unique.
There is already a way to install it and use conary as package manager. read more at: http://wiki.foresightlinux.se/index.php?title=Installation
Remember, this is a early beta stage.
We already have whole main repository from centos and fully updated. We also have epel repository, but not built with deep closed checks. That means if you install filezilla or similar, you might need to add missing packages on your own. Or it will tell you that you are missing libraries, that filezilla needs. No huge issue at the moment, it will be fixed in near future.
We will write more about foresight, when we are starting to get somewhere. If you need any help, easiest to get help is from irc or mailinglist.
How to install Foresight 3
We have written down how you can install Foresight 3 and get cinnamon or openbox as desktop. (more desktop env will come)
Read all about it here:
About the issue: exceptions.ImportError: libpopt.so.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
That error is probably gone, but has the information there, just in case.
We know that conary updateall or conary update *** doesn't work for the moment, because the groups are out of sync. But will be fixed later.
Leave a comment if you wonder anything.
Note: The old wiki is located here: http://www.foresightlinux.se/wiki-en
The new wiki will live here: http://wiki.foresightlinux.se
Remember, these wiki's are unofficial ones. But worth mention.
Forum is down, we are working on it
We know that forum is down at the moment, we are working to get it up and running again.
In meantime use irc, mailinglist or unofficial forum to ask questions or to get in touch with us.
Announcing Foresight Linux 2.5.3
Foresight is a Linux distribution for your desktop that features a rolling release schedule that always keeps your desktop up to date; a revolutionary package manager, Conary; the latest GNOME2, Lxde and Xfce desktop environment and an innovative set of excellent, up to date software applications.
We have new set of iso for GNOME2, Lxde and Xfce.
We hope you enjoy using Foresight as much as we do. Because your distro should be cool!
Foresight is currently dependent on rBuilder to build anaconda images. Because Foresight is a rolling release with regular updates, updating install images was perhaps lower priority, but also, rBuilder quit working for building Foresight images quite some time ago, which really got in the way of posting new images.
Note: these images still use an older version of anaconda and an older kernel, so some new hardware is still not supported. Also, ext4 is not supported in these images. Sorry. New kernel will be installed after installation and running updateall. For the moment, the version available in stable repository is 3.4.38
The brave ones can follow this guide to get ext4 support from start: http://wiki.foresightlinux.org/wiki/display/docs/Foresight+Linux+ghetto+install+HOWTO

What's new
Foresight Linux 2.5.3 , released March 31th, features the latest stable packages. This release is for new users as well as for returning users and early adopters! Existing users of our previous release has the latest already from updateall!
GNOME, Lxde and Xfce
Foresight features the latest stable versions of GNOME2, Lxde and Xfce!
- GNOME is a popular, multi-platform desktop environment for your computer. GNOME's focus is ease of use, stability and first-class internationalisation and accessibility support. Running with latest firefox, pidgin, skype and alot more. Foresight still uses GNOME2.
- Lxde The "Lightweight X11 Desktop Environment" is an extremely fast-performing and energy-saving desktop environment, and a platform to easily build new applications upon. Using applications from GNOME to make it work in all kinds of different ways. Using notify-osd, chromium and thunderbird as default applications.
- Xfce is a lightweight desktop environment for UNIX-like operating systems. It aims to be fast and low on system resources, while still being visually appealing and user friendly. We have Xfce version 4.10, all Xfce applications are up to date.
Kernel 3.4
Foresight also includes the polished and refined Long Term Support 3.4 Linux kernel. If new and shiny is more your thing, you will be pleased to learn that the newly Linux kernel 3.8 is currently undergoing shakedown tests by Foresight's bravest and is slated to become available as a drop-in upgrade in the coming weeks for the adventurous kind!
Tons of new applications and improvements

We're proud to ship the very latest and greatest Chromium and Firefox web browsers, Pragha, Spotify, Wine, playonlinux, Pidgin, Gimp, Dropbox, and many more great applications for your delight!
Conary is a distributed software management system for Linux distributions. Conary tools can be used to package software for desktop distributions such as Foresight Linux, or for building software appliances and derivative distributions based on Conary.
Conary replaces existing software package management solutions with features developed to address some of the common problems in package management. Conary features software installed and maintained from networked repositories.
With dependencies defined at the file level, Conary's built-in dependency resolution brings in only the components needed from other packages instead of entire packages. Conary users can install and maintain software as well as to roll a Conary-based system back to a previous state before one or more updates.
A new update mechanism called "system model" is added. In this model, a file called /etc/conary/system-model describes what should be installed on the system. This file is modified by certain conary update commands, and can also be edited with a text editor. The system model allows a system to be updated relative to a search path that includes groups as well as labels, leading to more coherent sets of updated packages. It also allows re-starting updates with transient failures; the filename /etc/conary/system-model.next is reserved for storing the system target state during an update operation.
Downloading and Installing
Downloads are available at our downloads page, where you'll be able to choose from our GNOME, Lxde and Xfce images for both 32-bit and 64-bit systems.

When we first saw Lykke Li do "Little Bit," it was clear she liked to dance. This is all the more apparent in the Mattias Montero-directed video for "I'm Good, I'm Gone." (Actually, it looks like all of Sweden, including its elderly, like to cut the rug.) The song feels different than when Lykke sang it with the Swedish indie All Stars and in in the bathroom, though her Hammer pants and silky blouse resemble shower curtains.
Great stuff. Lots of slo-mo violence, but no worries: It's all good. Just dance.

Also known as the original iPhone, iPhone 2G, or iPhone EDGE, it was the first generation of iPhone designed and marketed by Apple. It was later succeeded by the iPhone 3G.
The announcement about its launch came on January 9, 2007 after months of rumors and speculation introduced initially in the United States, featuring quad-band GSM with GPRS and EDGE.
The original iPhone no longer receives software updates from Apple; its final firmware version was iOS 3.1.3.

Black women appear to have a more difficult time than white women recovering from breast cancer. Doctors at the Harvard school of public health followed nearly 20,000 women with stage 1 to stage 3 breast cancer over nearly 7 years. Non-hispanic black women had a 48%t higher risk for breast cancer death in the first three years after diagnosis compared to white patients. The difference was most striking for those with estrogen receptor-positive tumors. Those cancers are often considered treatable. More studies are being conducted to determine exactly why.

The shelves look good in person and were easy to assemble. They are not very sturdy though. One shelf started to break after I filled it with larger books. They are good for holding some books and decor, but probably not the best to be filled entirely with books.
As long as you're okay with putting together these shelves (which is not difficult) they are great if you're looking for extra storage but don't have a lot of room.
I am. Very happy with my new bathroom ladder to hold my towels, wash cloths and a shelf for my perfume and candles. It is perfect and I plan on purchasing one for my daughters new home. Love it.
I really like this shelf and am glad I ordered it. The underside of the shelves are not painted well but you can't see them so it really doesn't matter. The only thing I REALLY WISH is if the instructions were clear and gave caution to putting it together. Be VERY careful to attach the side pieces to the shelves. The dowels do not fit and pushing them into the sides will break the side piece. Instead, put the dowels into the shelves and hammer them in, then attach the sides. IF I had known to do that, I would not have broken the side pieces in two places. Nevertheless, it is a good product. It is very cute and I am pleased with the item.
Terrible quality, smelled of chemicals, and was falling apart. This is a very cheap and poorly made product. Don't get unless you want to rebuild it and air it for a number of weeks so that toxic fumes don't poison people around it (in my case, this was supposed to go into my baby's room.)
This ladder shelf is nice to look at, but it was not that easy to put together. It definitely takes two people to assemble it and two of the screws were missing so I had to buy two to finish it. Also the white plugs to cover the screws on the side do not stay in on their own. You need to super glue them on your own or they will pop out.
The shelving unit is put together as two separate units with the top shelving locked to the bottom portion. The side wood didnot align properly on one side. I place this fault against a wall where it could not be seen.
This is not a high quality piece of furniture, but for my use in my Granddaughters bedroom (age 9) it looks very nice. I was able to assemble this easily by myself. The finish could have used another coat of paint, but all in all, it's very functional and serves it's purpose.
was ppackaged well, went together easily (didn't need two people as suggested). would recommend.
This was a good deal for the price. I purchased two of the leaning ladders and my husband had to do some repair work on one of the ladders, but overall I would get them again because they are a good value. It helps to be handy and be able to fix the flaws. They both needed touch up paint.

Health A-Z
Kidney infection - What is a kidney infection?
Having a kidney infection can make you feel very ill, but if you don't have any other health problems and you get the right treatment, you should make a quick recovery. Kidney infections can affect men and women of all ages, but they're most common in women.
Most of the research has looked at women who aren't pregnant, so this information is mostly for them. Pregnant women may need to be treated in hospital.
Although most of the research has looked at women, treatment is similar for men and women.
We've brought together the best research about kidney infections and weighed up the evidence about how to treat them. You can use our information to talk to your doctor and decide which treatments are best for you.
Your kidneys are the organs in your body that make urine. You have two of them, each one about the size of a fist. They sit near the middle of your back, just below your ribs. They filter water and waste products out of your blood to make urine.
Urine drains from your kidneys down tubes called ureters. You have two ureters, one for each kidney. Both ureters empty into your bladder. Urine is stored in your bladder until you go to the toilet. When you urinate, urine passes out of your body from the bladder through a tube called the urethra.
The part of your body that makes and gets rid of urine is called your urinary tract. Your urinary tract includes your kidneys, ureters, bladder, and urethra.
You can get an infection in your urinary tract when tiny organisms, usually bacteria, get into your urethra and start to multiply.[1]
An infection that stays in your urethra is called urethritis. If it spreads to your bladder, it's called cystitis. Doctors sometimes call infections in your bladder or urethra lower urinary tract infections.
An infection in the lower part of your urinary tract may travel up your ureters to infect one or both kidneys. The medical name for a kidney infection is pyelonephritis. Doctors sometimes call kidney infections upper urinary tract infections.
If a doctor just says "urinary tract infection" or "UTI", they probably mean urethritis or cystitis.
There are two main types of kidney infections: uncomplicated and complicated.[2][3][4]
An uncomplicated kidney infection occurs when a person with a normal urinary tract and a healthy immune system gets infected with a common type of bacteria. This type of kidney infection is most common in women aged 18 to 40.
A complicated kidney infection happens when the infection is more serious for some reason. It might be caused by bacteria that aren't as easy to kill with drugs. Or you could have another medical condition that makes your kidney infection worse, or means your body can't fight it off as well as it should.

Nabil has been on hunger strike since August [Al Jazeera]
An Egyptian military court has sentenced a blogger who criticised the army to two years in prison, after he went on a hunger strike to protest an initial three-year sentence.
"In the name of the people, Maikel Nabil has been sentenced and punished with two years in prison and fined 200 pounds ($33)," the court said after a retrial on Wednesday.
Nabil, 26, who had criticised the ruling military on his blog and campaigned against conscription, had been handed a three-year sentence in April in a widely criticised trial.
This followed his publication of a blog entry called "The people and the army were never hand in hand".
On his blog, Nabil said the army had used violence against protesters. He claimed it had also used Cairo's Egyptian Museum as a place to torture civilians, and that the military forces detained women protesters to take virginity tests.
He was at the time found guilty of "insulting the military" and of publishing false news.
Nabil's was the first trial of a blogger by a military court since the Supreme Council of the Armed Forces (SCAF) assumed control after President Hosni Mubarak resigned on February 11 following 18 straight days of anti-government protests.
Nabil has been on hunger strike since August.
His brother Mark told the AFP news agency that Nabil "will escalate his hunger strike. He was drinking juice and milk, but now will only drink water".
Facing criticism
Egypt's military has faced criticism for sentencing thousands of civilians in military courts for offences ranging from assault and rape to insulting the ruling generals.
Rights groups had criticised Nabil's initial sentencing, saying that the move set a dangerous precedent at a time when Egypt was trying to transition away from the abuses of the Mubarak era.
In September, the military denied Nabil was a "prisoner of conscience".
"What Nabil wrote on his blog is unrelated to opinion; it was a clear transgression of all boundaries of insult and libel, and manufactured lies against the armed forces," the official MENA news agency quoted a military official as saying.
Military prosecutors also continue to detain prominent activist and blogger Alaa Abd El Fattah over accusations that he incited deadly clashes between soldiers and Christians in October.
Abd El Fattah had written on his blog that Egypt's military rulers were responsible for the killings.
"Instead of launching a proper investigation, they are sending activists to trial for saying the plain truth and that is that the army committed a crime in cold blood," Abd El Fattah told Reuters in October.
In an interview with Al Jazeera in October, Mona Seif, Abd El Fattah's sister, said he was being used as a scapegoat by the Egyptian military.
"He was arrested because the military are trying to find someone else to blame for the massacre that happened on the ninth of October," she said.

It does not provide the basis for a charge under subsection 84(1.1) of the Highway Traffic Act that a vehicle is in such a dangerous or unsafe condition as to endanger any person.

Fresh, what an interesting sounding wedding. Is it outdoors?
They have not caught the creep here yet. The police are thinking maybe it was a drugged out transient. Whatever the case may be, everyone is still on edge.
Today is my birthday and my daughters are taking me out to lunch. Hubby is at work so after lunch I think I am going to treat myself to a new pair of shoes. I'm 49 today and I can't believe it. Next year is the big 5-0 for me.

FSN, if you have time (and like music), the Rock Musuem is really neat. It's also attached to the Sci-Fi museum which is pretty neat too, even if you're a sci-fi geek by proxy as I am. About the daughter thing... Mother/daughter relationships are special and I truly believe we are not meant to live together which becomes especially apparent in the later teen years. This past visit, staying in a hotel TOTALLY changed my mindframe and I had a MUCH better time than I have in years. For whatever reason, staying with my mom just puts me right back in my 15-year-old mindset and I hate being there. It's irrational because I have many resources at the age of 37 and she isn't overly clingy when I stay here, but still. It's kind of like my inner child wakes up and says "Remember? We hate everything." LOL. If I can afford it, I will do hotels from now on.
Karla, happy birthday and enjoy the new shoes!
I got back last night. Feeling a bit weary but okay. We're having a painting party today with a few close friends and OP's family. It was scheduled well before my trip came about but it should be relaxing.
My visit was very nice but I am glad to be home.

Introduction to: Ontologies
In my most recent post, I introduced RDF as a flexible and schema-less data model. However, some of you may think then that using RDF data is going to be a complete mess. In some cases, that may be true; and it's fine! There are use cases in which all you want is messy data. What if you want to do more interesting stuff with your RDF data like infer new knowledge? This is where ontologies come in.
What is an Ontology?
Let me scare you for a minute. The computer science definition of ontology is:
a formal and explicit specification of a shared conceptualization

Even if you have seasonal outdoor allergies, following a few simple guidelines will help you can keep a beautiful, vibrant garden with minimal sniffling and sneezing.
Plan your plants
- Plant low-allergen varieties. If you already have a garden that's making you red-eyed and sneezy, you may need to replace some plants.
- Avoid plants with tiny pollen grains that are wind-sown. This includes many grasses, trees and shrubs.
- Choose plants that use their own pollen for fertilization, such as petunias.
- Choose plants that count on hosts for pollination. These usually include big, showy flowers. They rely on birds, bees, or butterflies to carry pollen from one plant to another. Since it's not carried on the wind, the pollen tends to be heavy, large and sticky. So few pollen grains end up in your eyes and airways.
- Stick with native plants if you can. They've already adapted to the climate, so they'll need less care—watering, fertilizer and pesticides. Local birds and insects may also be more attracted to native plants.
- Disease resistant plants are also a good idea, because they're less likely to harbor molds and mildew.
- Mow your lawn. Almost all grasses produce light, highly allergenic pollen. But, if you keep your lawn mowed, the grass can't flower and release its pollen. Since mowing can stir up allergens, remember to use a mask (or a gardener) for mowing.
- Shade trees, especially hardwoods, are also highly allergenic and should be avoided. Many of these trees bloom before their leaves grow in, allowing the wind to pick up and carry their pollen.
- "Seedless" or "male" varieties of trees and shrubs are also a bad idea. If you do include any of these highly allergenic plants in your garden, make sure you plant them away from doors, windows and high-traffic areas of your yard.
- Watch those weeds. Don't let any weeds grow to maturity. Pull them out before they flower!
Plan your day
- Limit gardening time. You may love nothing better than to spend the whole day digging in the dirt. But even if you're using only low-allergen plants, you may still sneeze and itch. For some people, prolonged, close exposure to even the traditionally safe plants may bring on allergies.
- For some people, the strong smells of many flowering plants can trigger allergies.
- While your garden may be relatively allergen-free, your neighbor's may not be. Pollen can travel great distances, even state to state!
- Watch out for molds, too. They often grow in composts and in the wood chips, bark, shredded leaves and similar materials used to mulch a garden. You may want to do away with that compost heap, and switch to pebbles instead of mulch. Mold, mildew, dust and pollen can also collect in the branches of hedges, so keep those hedges pruned!
- Skip mornings. It's a lovely time to garden, but it's also when pollen counts are highest. Better bet: late afternoon and early evening.
- Cool and cloudy? Garden away!
- Did it rain and clear up? The pollen count is likely very low now. Get out to the garden! The exception: A really brief thunderstorm can actually raise pollen counts briefly.
- Share the chores. Mowing the lawn and tending the compost pile will aggravate your allergies. See if someone else can do this for you. You may even want to do away with the compost, and hire a lawn service to keep your grass cut.
- Don't touch your face, especially around your nose and eyes, while you're gardening!
- When you're done, wash up. Wash your face and hands immediately after coming in from gardening. Be sure to shower and wash your hair as soon as possible, and get those clothes in the laundry!

I was lucky during this Labour Day Weekend to play with a couple of inexpensive, audiophile gems. One was the Pro-Ject Debut Carbon Turntable. Designed in Austria, but manufactured in the Czech Republic, Pro-Ject is known for producing high quality turntables at very reasonable prices, none more reasonable than the Debut Carbon.
My Debut was lime green (they come in a multitude of high gloss colours and with a dust cover) and came with an Ortofon Red cartridge. This particular Debut setup sells for $499 but was reduced to $399, which makes it one of the greatest bargains in high end audio. Don't let anyone tell you that you can't get into vinyl. Good vinyl, at that.
But what about a tonearm and phono cables?
No problem. Comes with detachable cables, which makes the 'table easily adaptable and upgradeable. Many budget turntables come with permanently attached phono cables. But, what blew my mind more than the value and excellent sound, was the all-in-one carbon fibre headshell/tonearm. A real work of art — constructed beautifully. And, all this, for THAT price!
The sound (through the phono stage of a bel canto receiver and entry level Chario floor standers) was detailed, sweet and quite well balanced. Only in instrumental separation and bass performance did the limited budget show in comparison with more expensive systems. 'Oh, well', you say, smugly! Weaknesses. Smile.
Not all is lost. We added the Pro-Ject Record Puck, a hefty record weight for $85 (which you can imagine as a free add on if your Debut is discounted) and the sound improved with eye opening significance. Bass? Better/Deeper. Treble? Better, with more accurate instrumental timbre (Monteux/LSO/Bolero — quite something to hear Gervase de Peyer on clarinet and Dennis Wick's trombone sound so much more lifelike with just some weight on the platter). Separation/Soundstage? Improved, albeit slightly. There's that smug look again! I mean, what the hell. It's less than $599 retail with the puck. For that price, the London/Maazel/VPO Rite of Spring never had it so good. I could even tell the horn glissandos were played by Viennese horns, with its unique timbre.
Even though the world economy is improving, the 'east' still operates differently than the 'west'. My buddy just conducted an opera in Bulgaria and the poor players were playing for tuna fish sandwiches, just about. Not good. I guess this is why Pro-Ject can offer such great entry level turntables so reasonably. In any case, the Czech workers produce a lovely looking 'table that would grace any audiophile's room. But, if you're a student looking to get into vinyl or on a restricted budget, Pro-Ject offers you a way in that is a home run. Very highly recommended. If I had the 'table for a full Audiophilia review, it would have received an Audiophilia Star Component Award. Yes, that good.

The Queens natives have ditched the bluesy sounds heard on their debut album and put forth a collection of spunky pop tunes fit for the dance floor or gym.
DJ Yonny, Salaam Remi, Kidz in the Hall's Double O, Damien Major, and David Berrie handle production duties, while rappers Melo-X and Naledge of Kidz in the Hall are the only two guest appearances on the opus. One of the effort's standout tracks is "Love Song," the twins' rendition of The Cure's 1989 track "Lovesong."

Prof. Lily L. Tsai
Spring 2005
How and why do we participate in public life? How do we get drawn into community and political affairs? In this course we examine the associations and networks that connect us to one another and structure our social and political interactions. Readings are drawn from a growing body of research suggesting that the social networks, community norms, and associational activities represented by the concepts of civil society and social capital can have important effects on the functioning of democracy, stability and change in political regimes, the capacity of states to carry out their objectives, and international politics.

|OWS Dead? Not So Fast
|no comments
When he was confronted by the New York Times' Jeff Zeleny to clarify a comment he made about Mitt Romney, Rick Santorum showed he's having trouble with the kitchen heat as his campaign begins to flame out.
It seems Santorum recently told some supporters he thought Romney was "the worst Republican in the country to put up against Barack Obama."
Then, when asked about his comment by Zeleny, Santorum went off on the reporter. "Quit distorting my words. It's bull****." Later Santorum declared he would take on the New York Times, whatever that means.
In the bare knuckles world of a national presidential campaign, it seems the former Pennsylvania senator can dish out the bull**** - Obama is leading Christians to the guillotine, for example - but he can't man up when it comes time to justify something inflammatory he said in a public forum. All he had to tell Zeleny was, "I should have added the words 'on health care'" and that would have been that.
But this is part of the "elite media" myth pushed by Santorum, Gingrich and proxies like Sarah Palin. When you don't like the message, attack the messenger and if you're a conservative and it's the New York Times, kill the messenger.
What does "elite media" even mean? Is it a compliment or criticism?
In the case of the New York Times, coverage of candidates has always been rigorous, regardless of one's political persuasion. Democrats get hammered just as much as Republicans. When Democratic congressmen Charlie Rangle and Anthony Weiner got in hot water, the Times' coverage and criticism of both was relentless. Obama is blasted on its opinion and news pages all the time, so what's Gingrich talking about when he says "the elite media is covering for Obama"?
It's a fallacy founded on the notion that coverage of anything conservative that attempts to present the good, the bad and the ugly is evidence of a "liberal media bias."
Mrs. Gingrich No. 2 decides to speak out on her ex's strange ideas about matrimony and Newt gets his knickers in a twist because - OMG! - the media are reporting what she said. But recall Gingrich had no such qualms when Bill Clinton was the subject of sallacious media coverage.
Not only is it hypocritical, it reveals the utter contempt Santorum, Gingrich, Palin and so many other conservatives have for the electorate who they regard as just so many sheep who must be spoonfed only what the candidates want them to see and hear.
By stupidly stumbling into the contraception mine field, Santorum discovered why, over the decades, his GOP predecessors wisely steered clear of this highly personal, emotionally charged discussion best left to women, their partners and, if necessary, the clergy.
It all began with an Obama administration directive to Catholic institutions doing business in the secular world that said women must not be denied contraception under health insurance programs offered by these institutions. Because Catholic teaching forbids the use of birth control, a firestorm ensued stoked mainly by the far right media and Republican presidential candidates who fallaciously charged the president with waging a "war on religion."
Enter Sandra Fluke, a Methodist student attending the Jesuit Georgetown University law school. She testified before a congressional committee expressing her gratitude for the new regulation. Fluke cited the financial burden students and other women at Catholic institutions shoulder in having to pay for a healthcare benefit typically covered by health insurance plans.
The episode was over. Or so we thought until Rush Limbaugh decided to weigh in.
Limbaugh vilely bullied Fluke on the air, calling her a "slut" and a "prostitute." In the predictable uproar that followed, Limbaugh continued his vicious attacks on the 30-year-old. Not until his sponsors began leaving did Limbaugh finally blink, issuing a tepid apology, claiming Democrats made him do it.
"Against my own instincts, against my own knowledge, against everything I know to be right and wrong I descended to their level when I used those two words to describe Sandra Fluke," declared Limbaugh on the air. "That was my error. I became like them, and I feel very badly about that."
More troubling than Limbaugh's cowardly attack and bogus apology, however, is the deafening silence from the GOP presidential candidates and conservative leaders in Congress.
Most all have daughters or granddaughters but none has condemned Limbaugh's cowardly assault on Fluke, no doubt because they're afraid to earn the wrath of the unofficial leader of the conservative wing of their party.
Instead, the GOP has earned the wrath of a far more important constituency: women.
Not only are women voters of all stripes lining up behind Obama in 2012, women also think Democrats should take control of Congress by a margin of 51 to 36 percent, according to a new poll done by Democrat Peter Hart and Republican Bill McInturff.
Having already angered and alienated Latinos, gays, conservative Democrats, moderate Republicans, union workers, young people, African Americans and many other voting blocks, Republicans seem intent on adding women to the list.
"It's devastating," a well known Republican strategist told the Washington Post. "I don't think it's going away."
We all seek the health and wellbeing of our children and grandchildren so we can watch them grow and prosper. We want our homes, cars, roads, food, water, medicine, and air to be safe. We expect to be treated fairly in our personal and business lives. We all work for economic security for ourselves and our families, especially as we approach or enter our retirement years.
We take the guarantee of these for granted, but there was a time inAmericawhen none of them was assured. For the republic's first one hundred years or so, it was anything goes, do as you please, don't worry about the consequences.
In that political and economic climate, only a few managed to thrive. For everyone else, there was slavery and child labor; hunger; exploitation of workers; illiteracy; poverty; polluted rivers; disease; dangerous work places; ravaged landscapes; fraudulent financial markets; unstable banking; contaminated food and medicines; unsafe products.
Americans were not created equal in those days. Nor was everyone entitled to life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness.
It took a Republican president to see the inequality of a system rigged to favor the wealthy and privileged. So Teddy Roosevelt pushed for reform. He broke up monopolies, advocated environmental conservation, fostered banking reform, protected food and drugs, and demanded railroad regulations.
Naturally Teddy was attacked, not by the many Americans he sought to help, but by the few who benefitted under the rigged system. Did TR succeed? His is one of the four faces onMt.Rushmore.
We've seen ample evidence that the system is once again rigged to benefit the few. The most glaring example was TARP. The banking and financial institutions that caused the economic disaster through reckless, unregulated practices were saved with hundreds of billions of tax dollars paid by the rest of us.
But it was we and not the perpetrators who suffered the consequences; tens of millions of lost jobs, foreclosed homes, drained bank accounts, and wrecked retirement savings.Many of us are understandably angry. But much of our rage seems blind and misdirected and the few who cashed in on the rigged system this time around want to keep it that way. They know if we ever open our eyes, we're going to realize who the culprits are.
So media surrogates belonging to the few stoke our anger with nonsense about fake birth certificates, fictitious "wars" on (fill in the blank), and phony conspiracy theories. Anything to deflect our attention away from the things we should really care about, like the future of our kids, our health and wellbeing, and our economic security.
Meanwhile, to maintain political and economic power, the few benefitting from the rigged system relentlessly push two demands. First they want bigger tax cuts for themselves because they claim to be "job creators."
So-called "trickledown economics" will benefit every American, they say, but there is scant evidence to support what George H.W. Bush once called "voodoo economics." In the decade since Bush Junior's tax cuts were enacted, we've seen the slowest period of job growth in decades.
The few also insist regulations kill jobs. Yet, most if not all regulations aim to preventAmericafrom sliding back into the dark days of anything goes. The few reject regulations, not because they kill jobs, but because they cost money.
Remember when the car companies claimed seat belts were too expensive to install in every automobile? They managed to avoid regulation for years. It turned out they weren't too expensive and millions of lives have been saved since seat belts were made mandatory.
Thus, these two arguments in favor of the few are deceptive. Tax cuts for the few don't benefit the many, and regulations are necessary to protect the many from the few.
So, what are the things we should support?
Our tax code is a good place to start. Do any of us really want to pay a higher percentage on income taxes than somebody making millions or billions? The few think we should.
New banking and finance laws protect you from the predatory lending practices of banks and credit card companies. Do you really want to see them repealed so you can pay higher interest rates and fees? The few would like that.Is your college graduate seeking a job? Do you really want your child going without health insurance while he or she looks for work? The few would prefer they do.
Is your teenager earning money for college? The few want to do away with the minimum wage.
Counting on Social Security and Medicare for yourself or a loved one? The few would like to eliminate both as we know them, the sooner the better.
Before you shout "class warfare" or "Marxism," take a moment to consider what Teddy Roosevelt had to say more than a century ago:
"Behind the ostensible government sits enthroned an invisible government owing no allegiance and acknowledging no responsibility to the people."
TR knew the American Dream could never be fulfilled for the many as long as the playing field was tilted in favor of the few. So, one last question: What are your own best interests and who is trying to serve them?
I watched a TV report on the Georgia birther hearing, a subpoena to which President Obama rightfully ignored. I was curious to see just who was behind this travesty. I wasn't disappointed.
Guess who showed up as the chief spokeswoman for the plaintiffs? None other than California Birther Queen Orly Taitz, the crazy lady who, a couple of years ago, breathlessly presented an Obama "Kenyan birth certificate" that quickly turned out to be a poor forgery. Taitz is now leading the charge in an Atlanta courtroom to "prove" Obama can't be on the 2012 ballot in Georgia because, the plaintiffs claim, he's not a citizen of the U.S.
Birth certificate duly issued by the state of Hawaii? Not good enough for Orly and her minions.
Having worked around television for 25 years, you see people like Taitz coming out of the woodwork all the time. At the height of the birther insanity, Taitz appeared over and over on TV and radio making her baseless claims. When nobodies like Taitz get hooked on being media "stars," they become like junkies. They can't live without the notoriety. Then, after they've been thoroughly discredited, as Taitz was, they wonder why no TV news/talk producers are calling anymore. Thus, it becomes critical for such sociopaths to grasp at any straw they think will help reignite their imagined "fame."
Welcome to Georgia Orly! I'm not buying your brand of crazy, but you'll find plenty of Obama Derangement Syndrome sufferers hereabouts who will.
In an effort to cloud the core issue - the one with which most everyone agrees - the far right noise machine has been working 24-7 to cast OWS and its supporters as (mix and match any of the following) unhygienic, law breaking, Communist, anti-Semitic, fascist, drug-addled, Nazi, whining, sex-crazed, nihilist, Marxist, spoiled, lazy, disorganized, unfocused, stupid, manipulated, socialist.
None of it really matters. A year away from the 2012 elections, GOP lawmakers seem determined to whistle past this graveyard in their effort to protect their well-to-do benefactors.

{Wedding Of The Year} Ms I-Hua & Zeboy Get Hitched!
Food blogging royalty, Ms. I-Hua and Zeboy recently said 'I Do' after being together for something like 11 years!
Not only was I invited to such a prestigious event, I was asked to help with the wedding cakes, along with fellow bake-a-holic Thanh. I immediately said yes, even though I had a feeling it wouldn't work out as perfectly as I had envisioned in my head.
But first the wedding, and what a beautiful wedding it was! Ceremony and reception both held at the Middle Brighton Baths, over looking the ocean. It was lovely to step out onto the deck to witness the vows, then step back inside for the food, and no 3 hour gap in between!
The food of course was very good for wedding food. Luckily being foodies, they chose a good place! For food descriptions, check out the bride's blog post.
Now to the cake buffet!
We had cake meetings, outlandish ideas (rainbow cake was not allowed ), pinterest boards, you name it. We were the #cakesqaud and weren't going to let anything get in the way of helping to make Haz & Gaz's day one to remember.
I took on the responsibility of making 3 cakes… which in the end of the turned out into 6 cakes… more on that later; whilst Thanh pumped out the melting moments and a red velvet cake.
The groom's favourite cake is Black Forest, so I put my hand up for that. I have wanted to try a recipe by Martin Boetz that I saw on Food Safari years ago. It involves Heston's recipe for chocolate mousse, 6 layers, cream, kirsch, and a LOT of chocolate
I baked the vanilla cake, only to realise I would struggle to get three layers cut out of it, so I made another one, and put extra baking powder in the chocolate layer to ensure I'd get the height for 3 layers.
I had hoped to find carbon footprint cherries available for decoration, but they were no where to be found. So in a moment of genius, I bought frozen ones and put green sugar flower wire in them to make them look realistic.
Assembly was a job itself. Then it was time to make the ganache look good, which took quite some time, but I was happy with the final result. Topped with "fake" cherries and more chocolate, this cake weighed a tonne. Luckily my fridge could accomodate such a beast of a cake, and I had help when transporting it, even if I drove like a grandma haha!
I also made a flourless chocolate hazelnut cake for those gluten intolerant at the wedding. It's Bill Granger's recipe I've made before, and topped with edible disco dust and some dried flower buds, this cake looked like a true party cake. For the record, I think more things should have disco dust.
The disaster story with this cake; I baked it in a silicone mould cos my other tins were in use. When I tried to remove it from the mould it broke and flopped and looked AWFUL. I wanted to cry. Seriously. This was the last cake I had baked and I had to redo it. No way was I taking a broken cake to the wedding. When at the supermarket, I picked up an extra springform tin to bake it in. Best investment I did. The crack on this cake was part of the baking process, and not be trying to get it out!
The other cake I made was one of my favourites, lime and yoghurt cake. I'll be blogging this recipe soon. It's tangy, zesty and never dry. I doubled the quantity here and it turned out at a good height.
I had issues with the icing, I should have used a royal icing instead of the one in the recipe. I ended up putting two coats on, and tried to hide the rest with ribbon and my hand made sugar flowers. That's right, I made all those flowers. I've never made sugar flowers before either! Thanks to google, I did a brilliant job
High praise all around from everyone about our cakes… THANK. GOD! I was stressing they weren't gonna be great, but I always stress like that!! They ended up serving my Black Forest with either all 6 layers or only 3 …. and the worst part was I didn't even get to taste it!!! Or was the worst part that I didn't get to taste it, and there was still half the cake left in the kitchen? Ah well, I heard that it was amazing, and I let the bride and groom take home the remaining half to polish off.
It was great to be part of such an awesome wedding, and the way it centered around food, us food bloggers didn't feel out of place at all.
To Ms. I-Hua and Zeboy,
Wishing you both a life time of happiness.
May you be the cheese to each other's macaroni, the bacon to each other's eggs, and dance Gangnam Style every year to celebrate
Thank you for letting me be part of your special day <3

Ignoring symptoms of hypoglycemia, on the other hand, can be extremely dangerous, particularly if they occur while you are driving. In that situation, you not only endanger your own life and that of any passengers in your vehicle, but also that of other motorists.
The take-home message is this: If you think your blood glucose level is low, address the problem promptly. Stop what you're doing, check your blood glucose level with your meter, and have a snack if necessary, even if you have to stop your car or interrupt a conversation to do it. (If you don't have your meter with you or can't use it for any reason, go ahead and treat your symptoms of hypoglycemia without checking your blood glucose level first.) Chew and swallow four glucose tablets (containing about 4 grams of carbohydrate each) or drink about 5 ounces of orange juice or a regular (not diet) soft drink. Taking glucose tablets is a good way to treat low blood glucose because it helps you to avoid overtreating.
Sometimes, when people have had consistently higher-than-normal blood glucose levels for a long time, they feel symptoms of low blood glucose when their blood glucose level starts to approach normal. For example, a person who has an average blood glucose level of 200 mg/dl might start to feel symptoms of low blood glucose when his blood glucose level approaches 100 mg/dl. This person is not at risk for serious hypoglycemia. The way to know the difference between a potentially serious low blood glucose level and a false perception of low blood glucose is to check your blood glucose with your meter when you first feel the symptoms. However, as stated earlier, if you are not in a position to check your blood glucose level with your meter, the safest response is to assume it is low and treat it promptly.
Severe hypoglycemia is usually defined as a low blood glucose level that you must have assistance to treat (because, for example, you are too confused to eat or have lost consciousness). If you have ever experienced severe hypoglycemia, it is a good idea to have an emergency glucagon kit in your home or workplace (or both). A friend or family member can learn to give you a life-saving shot of glucagon in case you cannot eat or drink to raise your blood glucose level. However, if neither you nor a companion can deal with your low blood glucose level, instruct your companion to call 911. Paramedics can inject a glucose solution that immediately fixes the problem.
It is a good idea for anyone with diabetes to wear a medical identification bracelet indicating that he has diabetes, just in case he is ever unable to speak for himself.
Avoiding monitoring errors
Your blood glucose meter can provide you with some very useful and important information. When used properly, it can help you learn how specific types and amounts of food, physical activity, and possibly stress affect your blood glucose level. This information can help you plan what to eat and when to exercise, so you stay in better control and avoid low or high blood glucose. If you take insulin, your meter readings can guide you in tailoring your short-acting insulin doses to cover favorite meals or snacks.
To provide you with all of this information, however, your meter needs to be in good working order, and you need to know how to use it correctly. Here are some questions to ask yourself to help determine whether you're using your meter correctly for the most accurate results:
- Does your meter need to be cleaned periodically? Some do, so check the instruction manual that came with your meter.
- Do you use control solution occasionally to check the accuracy of your meter?
- Are the date and time set correctly on your meter? This may be less important if you always record your blood glucose readings immediately by hand in a log, but if you rely on your meter's memory to keep track of your numbers, you need the correct date and time to observe trends in your blood glucose levels.
