NEW YORK (TheStreet) -- Major U.S. equity markets fell the most in five weeks Thursday as the U.S. Capitol was briefly lcoked-down following an apparent shooting near the building and
President Obama warned Wall Street that a prolonged shutdown and failure to raise the debt ceiling would have a wide and negative impact on the economy.
The S&P 500 dropped the most since Aug. 27, the fourth time in five days, losing 0.8% to 1,680.94. The Dow Jones Industrial Average also fell 0.8% to 15,018.71 while the Nasdaq declined 1% to 3,777.80.
Thursday marked the third day of the partial government shutdown, a closure sparked by a Congressional impasse that prevented funding federal offices as well as programs previously approved the legislature. "Non-essential" federal employees remain on furlough without immediate pay.
President Obama told CNBC Wednesday that Wall Street should be "concerned" that Congress has yet to forge an agreement to fund the government and raise the debt ceiling, which the Treasury Department expects to reach on Oct. 17.
The U.S. Capitol was placed on lockdown Thursday afternoon after reports of gunfire outside the building, reportsThe Associated Press. Officials said at least one police officer has been injured. The female suspect was killed at the scene, Reuterssays. Police enforced shelter-in-place orders for for those within the Capitol and surrounding area.
The trading began with comparatively good news for economic recovery as jobless claims for the week ended Sept. 28 rose less than anticipated. The Labor Department Thursday said personal filings totaled 308,000. Economists polled by Thomson Reuters were expecting claims of 313,000. The four-week moving average dipped to 305,000 claims.In company news,BlackBerry (BBRY)shares slid 2.3% to $7.78 after a Wall Street Journal report said private-equity group Cerberus Capital Management is seeking a confidentiality agreement to allow access to the smart-phone maker's financial information in order to submit a new bid. United Technologies (UTX) shares dropped 1.4% to $103.49 after the company announced it may furlough more than 5,000 U.S. workers if the shutdown continues into November. The company said it expects some 2,000 employees who construct Black Hawk helicopters to be furloughed on Monday, and that the total could rise to 4,000 by next week on furloughs for its Pratt & Whitney and UTC Aerospace Systems division.
Tenet Healthcare (THC) shares were leading the S&P 500 a day after Fitch Ratings the company's acquisition of Vanguard Health Systems would enhance Tenet's geographic reach of its acute-care hospitals and add diversification through Vanguard's health-plan business. Shares rose 6.2% to $46.62.
August factory orders did not report on Thursday because of the shutdown. The Institute for Supply Management's non-manufacturing index for September came in at 54.4, which declined from the previous month's revised 58.6 reading. Analysts were expecting the index to hit 57.4. -- Written by Joe Deaux in New York. >Contact byEmail. Follow @JoeDeaux

Customer questions about this product
- What is the difference between granulated onion, minced onion, and onion powder?
- The difference lies in the grinding process. Granulated onion is ground into granules with coarse texture, like fine cornmeal. Minced onion is coarser in texture; minced onion pieces have a larger cut than granulated onion, but a smaller cut than fresh, chopped onions. Onion powder is ground into a fine, flour-like substance. This makes onion powder ideal for dispersing in liquids. It dissolves almost instantly when incorporated into any dish; granulated onion takes a few minutes to dissolve and release its flavor. While powder is cheaper, it can be a bit more difficult to work with (it adheres to damp surfaces and has a tendency to stick to the pan).
Use the following substitutions for granulated, minced, powdered, and fresh onion. Please note: All measurements are approximate.
- If substituting onion powder for granulated onion: 1 teaspoon onion powder is stronger than 1 teaspoon granulated onion; start with just a pinch of onion powder and adjust accordingly
- If substituting onion powder for minced onion: 1 teaspoon onion powder is equal to 1 Tablespoon minced onion.
- If substituting granulated onion for minced onion: 1 Tablespoon granulated onion is equal to 1/2 cup minced onion
- If substituting onion powder for fresh onion: 1 teaspoon onion powder is equal to 1/4 cup chopped fresh onion
- If substituting granulated onion for fresh onion: 1Tablespoon granulated onion is equal to 1/4 cup chopped fresh onion
- If substituting minced onion for fresh onion: 1 Tablespoon minced onion is equal to 1/4 cup chopped fresh onion
Add an onion-sweet zest to any meal with Regal Onion Powder! This powder is made from finely ground dehydrated onions. Use this granulated seasoning as a quick and easy substitute for fresh onion. It's easy to use, requires less labor and prep time, and has a longer shelf life than fresh onion. No need to peel, slice, or dice! A member of the lily family, onion has a pungent and sweet flavor.

Mix with butter to create onion butter for vegetable enhancement, or mix into biscuit or bread batters, salad dressings, and any recipe where easy dispersion of onion flavor is needed. Note: When substituting onion powder for fresh onion: One teaspoon of onion powder equals 1/3 cup fresh, chopped onion.

this item will be great in Use in salads such as potato, pasta, chicken, tuna or ham. also in other great things like sauces and more.
Jonathan D. from Zackey joe's Posted on 10/20/2014
These are top quality spices that can compare to any top brand. They are not second rate spices. The price is a steal. Plastic containers are not thin and lid fits securely.
Stefan F. from Chef Stef Posted on 08/09/2014
this is a great product. we do a lot of cooking and use a lot of spices. You can't beat the price on this item.
Brian R. Posted on 08/08/2014
I use this onion powder in everything. It stores really well and goes a long way. It is definitely a top quality grade onion powder.
Horace D. Posted on 05/27/2014
This onion powder is fragrant and finely ground. We like it on our baked snack mix. It's also nice to have on hand to make a super quick, flavorful sauce when you don't have an onion available. I suggest running a piece of clear tape over the label. It isn't stuck well nor made of water resistant material so kitchen wear can be rough on it.
Stephanie H. Posted on 03/15/2014
We use a lot of onion power for that perfect flavor. Regal Onion Powder 9 oz. is a good size container and has a very fresh onion smell and taste. good price.
Rachel Y. Posted on 01/14/2014
This is an awesome value considering how much you get for the price. It comes fresh and is so nicely packed. I highly recommend buying from here for any spices you need.
Chris H. Posted on 12/11/2013
This is onion salt is plainly much better than what you would get at your local grocery store. A very good bargain in my opinion.
Deborah S. Posted on 10/13/2013
A high quality onion powder at a great price. Allows me to add onion flavor to dishes without having to have the texture of onion.
Cheri W. from Countryside Cakes Posted on 07/22/2013
The onion powder has a very nice texture. It doesn't clump like some have in the past. I'll be buying another to have one at home also.
Marolyn J. Posted on 03/27/2013
This is a great quality spice but with it only being available in the 9 oz size I wish there was a bulk quantity. Besides that there are no compliants here.
Rick C. Posted on 09/02/2012
We use the regal onion powder but especially in our homemade mash potatoes. this spice provides great season and taste. Doesnt taste to garlicy. Great price
Aaron h. from The new haven cafe Posted on 03/10/2012
Regal Onion Powder is great for making sausages or even for making hamburgers! A Dash of it results in a creamier product with a hint of onion! Great price as well!!!
Eric K. Posted on 11/22/2011
This onion powder is excellent in my opinion, it seems to have a fresh aspect because the flavor is so true to what I like to see in a good onion powder. I recommend putting it on means, as it makes all the difference in the world!
Allyson S. from Breads, Buns, n' More! Posted on 11/08/2011
This is not your ordinary onion powder, It is much better than you will buy in your local super market. It gives steaks and seafoods that extra taste.
Daniel O. Posted on 01/30/2011
In the soups that we use this spice in, it adds a nice, fresh flavor. We like that it comes in bulk and is such high quality.
Deanna N. from Scratch Posted on 09/29/2010
The Regal onion powder is a good value.The taste and freshness and price is what makes this a good buy.Very pleased with quanity for the price.

Lunch At Michael's: Paging George Clooney! Fern Mallis is Saving You a Seat at Fashion Week!
What recession? The dining room at 55th & Fifth was buzzing with the usual assemblage of bold face names, social swans and television types that tucked into their Cobb salads with gusto while digesting some of the week's harrowing headlines. Hollywood figured heavily into many of today's conversation with folks reeling from the shocking death of Heath Ledger and others seriously contemplating the possibility of a celebrity-free Academy Awards. IGM's Fern Mallis, who is days away from kicking off Mercedes Benz Fashion Week, hopes cooler heads will prevail on the left coast and everyone is back on the red carpet come Oscar night. "With the economy tanking, it's not about seeing pretty dresses on the red carpet," says Fern. "It's about having so many people being put out of work as a result of the strike. We need this Oscar to happen for a lot of reasons." The one bright spot: since the stars aren't working at the moment, Fern expects a slew of celebrities to show up at Bryant Park. At the top of her wish list: George Clooney. "I'd always find a seat for him.' Perhaps when the newly minted best actor nominee wraps up his rumored role in the negotiations to get everybody back to work, he'll make time for a pit stop in New York. Here's hoping …
Here's the rundown on today's crowd:
1. 'Mayor' Joe Armstrong, Sharon Hoge and a table full of handsome gents.
2. Richard Rubenstein.
3. Peter Price.
4. Esther Newberg with 'Barefoot Contessa' Ina Garten.
5. Harper Collins' Jane Friedman.

This just in, sort of, from New Hampshire: It's Mitt Romney for the Republican win. But this time, it was Jon Huntsman who was hot on his heels at that political prognosticating epicenter, Dixville Notch.
The narrowness of the front-runner's lead doesn't matter to his rivals, though, who are now "piling on Romney like Newt Gingrich on a younger, healthier wife," as Stephen Colbert so eloquently put it Tuesday night. Next up: South Carolina. —KA

Thanksgiving Turkeys: Butchering Time
First off let me say sorry for the lack of posting this month, I started a new job and have been busy with the transition. So with that said , this weekend we needed to get started butchering the turkeys we started growing out in March.
I was concerned that the turkeys would be too big for the chicken plucker to work effectively, and at first there were some issues. My dad and I were able to rework the idler pulley to get some more tension on the belt and it seems to have solved any problems. I also started trimming the wing feathers down a bit just for some extra room in the drum. Here's how we worked it!
The work areas were the first order of business, we set up 2 propane burners to heat the water and got a medium sized washtub to dunk the birds in , since they wouldn't fit in the pot like the chickens did.
And of course the star of the show, the whizbang chicken plucker, this thing has already paid for itself ! Im kidding actual but it does make short work of plucking… you just have to get you water temps right and not over heat the birds.
The butchering takes place on a white fold up table, nothing really special here , we put it up on blocks so its a little higher and a little easier on yer back!
Lets get to it!
The actual process goes alot quicker now with the plucker, we didn't time it but I think from bleeding to bagging probably takes about 30 minutes per bird.
We pick the turkey and bring them to the bleeding station, which is the tractor with the bale spear attachment, we hang the bird off that.
The turkey gets bled and hangs for a few minutes, the we take it to the hot water dunk!
After the plucking comes the gutting and bagging, we got some shrink bags that work great. Just put the bird in , tie it off and dunk in hot water, the bag does all the work.
Well there you have it, almost a step by step guide. Stay tuned for more!

Tim Jamison says Muskrat must be the best option - otherwise government wouldn't be pushing it. WOW! Isn't that about the scariest bit of logic you've ever heard to support a massive investment of public funds over a 60 year period? I can only hope that Tim Jamison is not a real living person - that it is a pseudonym like John Smith created by one of government's expensive PR agencies to sell this obscenely flawed project to an unsuspecting public. As disgusting a use of public funding as it might be, I can accept that there are people out there who - for a price - will write whatever their clients want to hear, no matter the consequences for their fellow citizens. It would be almost depressing to contemplate the alternative - that fifty years after the Churchill Falls fiasco, we would still have people in this province so eager to accept that something is good simply because government says it is good. Is that how far - or how little - our individual and collective powers of reasoning have evolved in a half-century? Please tell me it ain't so!

Muskrat Falls is the best option and the government would not be pushing it if it wasn't. All these leftwing conspiracy theories are completely insane. You guys are fighting Muskrat Falls because you're fighting the conservatives. You're playing politics with our electricity and it's Totally Cracked.

Fred Penner says he's always amused by Maurice's creative mathematics. A friend who knows Maurice once told me that Maurice once told him that one can make a rational argument that two plus two equals five. Seems he got the idea from reading Plato or Aristotle or someone like that. So on this Penner makes a valid point. Yet in general Maurice makes a lot of good arguments but as Ben Franklin said about John Adams - sometimes it's just crazy. It's a bit much to analyze all the issues of MF. To do it alone requires one to be an expert in everything, and there's not many of those around. Not to say that there's not value in common sense too. I think Maurice has added a lot to this debate, raising concerns, despite not always showing expertise.
- Winston Adams
- July 13, 2012 - 09:11
They keep repeating that we will have to ration electricity and that any alternative to MF is escalating in cost so it doesn't matter if MF costs go up . Both of these assertions are false. We have a slight problem with our winter residential heating load, which has been handled for decades by Holyrood for about 100 million a year for oil. Meanwhile our residential and small commercial heating and hot water is very inefficient, to the extent of 600 Megawatts of wasted electricity, that's more than the average output of MF. We can convert to efficient systems for one fifth the cost of MF. And the cost of conversion gets cheaper not more expensive. The cost of equipment continues to get less per kw of heat they produce. Nalcor says NFLDers are not interested in this approach.. Who wouldn't want electricity at the equivalent of 2 to 5 cents per kw hour, which is what these systems deliver heat for . Are NFLDers no longer trifty people? Maybe I'm wrong, perhaps waste is the way of the present generation. However, being properly informed is a problem here. Our government doens't practise what it preaches. Their EFFECIENCY POLICY talks about the need to develope a CULTURE OF CONSERVATION through effeciency, but it doesn't apply to Nalcor and the MF project. Almost nothing to assist residents on this CULTURE CHANGE. Just Talk without intent of meaningful action. And could some reader out there reading this, with some knowledge of the amount of electricity waste care to contradict my figures? We have a lot of professional engineering people who chose to remain silent- wonder why. The average reader must doubt that we could be wasting 600 Mw of electricity, which is very economic to use, yet we are to proceed with more multi blliion dollar capacity. Madness to me. Cracked, crazy, foolish, silly , senseless--in terms of meeting our winter heating needs. Maybe MF isa great project for mining companies in Labrador, residents of Nova Scotia and the NE Usa. Should'nt the beneficiaries be the other way around? Only in Nfld could this happen, and so far not a major oposition, unless one assumes the polls reflect the slow process of the public becoming informed in bits and pieces.

It is clear that the Muskrat Falls hydro electric project will be required to be developed in order to provide the electricity for future development in Newfoundland and Labrador and Atlantic Canada. The question is when should the project be built and under what financing conditions? Is it possible that Hydro-Quebec could buy the controlling shares of Nova Scotia Power and thereby control the corridor through which electrical power from Newfoundland and Labrador must flow to get to markets in Nova Scotia and the United States of America? Is it possible that increased construction and operating costs for the project will exceed 40%? Will the total construction costs exceed $10 Billion? Why is it necessary for the Province of Newfoundland and Labrador to bear the lion's share of the debt for the Muskrat Falls project? There are many unasked and unanswered questions regarding Muskrat Falls. It appears that the passage of Bill 29 or the Cover-up Act as it locally known was designed to make it impossible for the media, public and opponents of the Muskrat Falls project to obtain information regarding Muskrat Falls from Nalcor and the Government of Newfoundland under Access to Information laws. This troubling iron handed secrecy only serves to make the viability and advisability of proceeding with the Muskrat Falls deal at this time even more suspect! It appears that the Premier of Nova Scotia has been informed that all is not well and that the Emperor may not be wearing any clothes in Newfoundland after all. It appears that Premier Dexter may be getting concerned and dropped in for a chat with Premier Dunderdale to see for himself and to be reassured that all is well. Whether Dexter believes what he is told remains to be seen. If I were Mr. Dexter and the Government of Newfoundland told me that the Earth was round I would ask to see a satellite photograph and a scientific report to prove that the Earth is round or at the very least oval!

Nalcor's VP Muskrat Falls (Gilbert Bennett), Tom Marshall and Minister Kennedy have repeatedly said that Holyrood operates at capacity in winter, and that when operating at capacity it uses 18,000 barrels of oil a day...... At $100 per barrel that would be about $200 MILLION in winter...... After requesting the info since May, I just received word from Nalcor that over the last 9 years Holyrood operated AT CAPACITY at less than 2% of the time (1.58%) ... less than 6 days per year. SO when operating at capacity in winter, oil (when operating at capacity) would only cost --- not $200 million, but about $3 million a year. Of course, it operates at less, and much less than capacity as well. So on average (2002-2010) Holyrood oil has cost about $92 million a year, and in 2011, Holyrooddid not operate AT CAPACITY at any time. See www.vision2041.com

Clearly the Muskrat scheme was predicated on a lie from the outset. The problem with a lie - especially a whopper like this one - is that you have to make up even more lies to cover your tracks. This project matches the Upper Churchill for sheer stupidity but certainly exceeds it for deceit.
- Cold Future
- July 13, 2012 - 06:57
Even with the creative and new math economics as well as the unmonetized approach, nothing adds up. With all of that, it is balancing act to justify the project and even the so called experts stated that the pending closure of Corner Brook pulp and its 120 MW back inthe system would change the viability. There is no way to compete with energy from Quebec into Labrador without massive subsidy. Any increase in the project numbers further makes the project a lose lose lose situation for NL ratepayers. NL has given enough to Quebec. We don't need to so generous again with NS or anyboby else. Its time to recognize that the ship is sinking and bale out as quickly as possible.

So now we need Muskrat Falls to provide Danny's multi-billion dollar mining giants power at 2-4 cents/KWh, power that to build and transmit will cost island ratepayers 20-30 cents/KWh ---- WE, island ratepayers/taxpayers will thereby lose billions to placate the mining giants of Labrador...... It makes more sense, for everyone, for the mining companies to buy their power over the fence from Quebec for 2-4 cents/KWh.

Taking care of little kids and dogs at the same time
As much as I love animals, I shy away from owning a pet because my caretaking ability is maxed out at the moment (plus we have allergy issues in our family). So, when I see someone gracefully balancing caring for young kids and pets, I'm full of admiration.
My neighbor Sharaine has a busy schedule, two kids (6 and 3) and a very active chocolate Labrador (and two pet rats, but that's the subject of a future post). Every afternoon, in all but the most inclement weather, I see them walking together. The six year-old runs ahead, the three year-old sometimes walks, sometimes snacks or naps in the jogging stroller, and the dog frolics happily among them all. I've watched her do this as long as I've lived here -- since her first child was a toddler.
As a result, everyone in her family gets daily exercise, they know everyone in the surrounding neighborhood, and her kids learn responsibility. Sharaine's tools, depending on the weather: good quality rain gear (jackets, pants, boots), winter wear (jackets, mittens, hats, warm socks), summer wear (sunhats, sunglasses), and a jogging stroller with a rain flap.

One of those organizations is Aggie Cat: Aggie Catholic Apologetic Team. LeJeune estimates that 30 students are regulars at this apostolate. Under the guidance of a peer leadership team, the students pick an apologetics topic such as grace, salvation or authority; they research it, then give a talk about it to the group at large. A discussion follows.
"The students learn a lot," notes LeJeune. "It helps them to grow in their knowledge and being comfortable to talk about their faith."
Another popular program under way at the university's Catholic Center is "Ask a Catholic a Question." Trained students wear bright shirts emblazoned with the phrases "Ask a Catholic a question" on the back and "Ask me a question" on the front. They stand in high-traffic areas on campus to wait for questions.
Howard Sonnier, a senior bioenvironmental science major, wasn't afraid to show his faith as a campus bus driver a few years ago. He donned his brightly colored shirt and found the daily commute to be a great venue for apologetics.
"Every semester I would have a few people who would actually wait for my bus on their route in order to continue the conversation that we had previously begun," notes Sonnier.
LeJeune says that the majority of questions are from fundamentalist or evangelical students.
"There has been a lot of fruit from this," LeJeune says. "We don't try to get into arguments. I teach the students to have respect for the person asking the questions. They are there to offer themselves as an embrace of God." Continue reading.

Tons of Updates on Porniki
2013 was a strong year for Porniki, we siled past 10,000,000 unique visits and you guys just rock! It's been a blast to run this site for more than 7 years already, and I always enjoy adding more stuff when I get it.
I am keeping on with more updates and some redesign, you will notice that I made some changes recently with fonts and appearance that make the site a little easier to read, and also that make the site more consistent between browsers and such. I am also currently working on adding some features that will allow for links to pay per view and other movie sources per star, which will help you stay connected with your favorite pornstars and enjoy their best work.
2013 was also a big turnover year for pornstars, issues with condom laws and such have caused some stars to quit the business, while others have toned down their work or gone to doing girl girl only stuff. However, there are plenty of hot new stars like Noelle Easton out there to keep us happy. Top new site for 2013 has been Wow Girls, you guys rocked that one big time, so if you haven't check it out, you really should!Finally, starting in the next few days, I will have an update on the main page here to show you which sections have been updated and new galleries added. I am upping the system I use a bit to get more galleries on the site, you have to remember that everything here is really very manual, I have to check everything by hand to make sure it's good, so it takes some time.

Charmaine Rone, a reader from Redwood City, California, created this when she couldn't find a quick, easy, and delicious recipe for cooking pork tenderloin. We cut the tenderloin in half so it fits easily in a frying pan and cooks even faster.
Sunset NOVEMBER 2012
1. Preheat oven to 425°. Cut pork tenderloin in half crosswise. Mix garlic, rosemary, cumin, salt, and pepper and rub mixture all over pork.
2. Heat oil in a medium ovenproof frying pan over high heat. Add pork and cook, turning as needed, until outside is completely seared, about 3 minutes total.
3. Put pan in oven and roast pork until done the way you like, about 10 minutes for medium (150° on an instant-read thermometer). Let rest 5 minutes before slicing.

Watch Soul Food: Good to You vs. Good for You on PBS. See more from Independent Lens.
It'll fill you. It might thrill you. But it can kill you.
Soul food is rich—not just in taste, pleasure, comfort, but also in history. And yet, as documentary filmmaker Byron Hurt asks in Soul Food Junkies (2012), is this legendary culinary culture also poisonous?
Hurt, whose previous films include Hip-Hop: Beyond Beats and Rhymes (2006) and I Am A Man: Black Masculinity in America (1998), was partly compelled to make the film because of his father, Jackie, who died at age sixty-three from pancreatic cancer, a disease often tied to obesity.
Hurt stops short of simply indicting soul food for murder, for while Jackie loved his fried chicken and fried okra, his collard greens, his black-eyed peas, and his macaroni and cheese, he also loved fast food and, it would seem, ate plain too much of all of it. He grew obese, which, Hurt argues, led to his demise. Hurt, a former college football player with an activist, sociological bent, began to wonder about the history of a diet that both spiritually sustains and physically undermines so many African Americans and Southerners in general.
Scholars explained to him how plantation owners fed their field slaves thousands of calories a day in cheap stock foods like corn, rice, and yams in order to get the desired amount of work out of them, sometimes using recipes descended from African cooking. And because slave cooks were responsible for feeding their masters, the slave-quarters diet increasingly became the big-house diet, and soul food, with its recycled grease and pork fat, gradually became endemic to the South.
The film recounts other parts of this diet's history that have made it extra bittersweet for African Americans: In the Jim Crow period, experts and family recount, boxed soul food sustained travelers who weren't allowed into white restaurants. In the Civil Rights Era, Ms. Peaches of Peaches Restaurant donated her soulful cooking to Freedom Riders detained by the police in fenced-in areas of Jackson, Mississippi. "She couldn't even pay the bills," her son tells Hurt, "but she started feeding folks." Later in the '60s, soul food was adopted by soul politics, but in some cases became its target—the Nation of Islam and activists like Dick Gregory decried what they saw as "slave food" or, as Gregory put it, "death food."
As African Americans—like all Americans—became more sedentary, and soul food—like all food—became more processed and restaurant proportions grew, obesity, diabetes, high blood pressure, heart disease, and cancers all increased. Generations that had been brought up proud for having "turned survival food into a delicacy," as one commentator puts it, and who took comfort in this food culture, were being done in by it.
Hurt is understandably alarmed by the statistics. Consider that roughly four out of five African-American women are overweight or obese. From 2007 to 2010, African-American girls were shown to be eighty percent more likely to be overweight than non-Hispanic white girls. African-American adults are twice as likely as non-Hispanic white adults to have diabetes and, in 2009, were more than twice as likely as non-Hispanic whites to die from the disease. Deaths from heart disease and stroke are almost twice as prevalent for African Americans as they are for whites.
But soul food is well loved. Aside from being tasty, soul food carries its own social pressures, which Hurt describes in the film. Watch him squirm as he tries to duck the insistent hospitality of some friendly game-day tailgaters at Mississippi's Jackson State University who want him to sample from their "junk pot" of pig's ears, pig's feet, turkey necks, corn, and so on. Others decry the "plate police" who would strip their meals of all that delicious, buttery, sweet, salty, fatty wonder.
Hurt seeks a middle ground in this food battle. He chats up his uncle about the latter's beloved vegetable garden. He talks to activists battling what they see as a class-based food apartheid in Newark, New Jersey, and he visits with students at Newark's St. Philip's Academy, for whom fresh food and nutritional lessons are part of both cafeteria and classroom life. Battling stereotypes of healthy food being "white people's food," the school has students chant: "Vegetables are soul food" and teaches them that a good diet will make them, as one student puts it, "feel good about me."
Fittingly, Hurt ends his film with the wish that his daughter, Massai, will live to see him become a healthy old man. I'll drink to that: maybe some unsweetened iced tea, with just a tiny splash of lemonade.
Watch Soul Food Junkies at 10 p.m. on January 14 as part of PBS's Independent Lens series.

The Daily ACK!!!
by Scott Lawrence
So the end of the world came and went with very little if any fanfare.
Frankly, I'm somewhat disappointed in the Mayans. Not being known as an overly pessimistic person, I was still strangely looking forward to it.
Not in the sense of all things coming to an end, but in the hopes that perhaps it somehow lined up with God's plan and that it coincided with a new beginning; that blessed hope in the idea that the stupidity of our leaders and wars and disease and hunger and hate and innocent children dying were wiped away so that the lion would finally lay down with the lamb...
...and there would be peace.
Still, faith tells me we cannot be too far off the mark for the end and would still not be surprised to see it yet in my lifetime. Study tells me that while no man knows the hour or the day, a wise virgin will keep her lamp trimmed so that when the bridegroom cometh in the midnight hour we shall not be left in the outer darkness.
Wake Up America!! ACK!!!

Whether you met these classic characters while reading the novels of John Steinbeck or you're encountering them for the first time, they come to life at the National Steinbeck Center, a sprawling and modernistic museum and study center in Old Town Salinas. It is the largest museum dedicated to a single American writer.
The Nobel- and Pulitzer Prize-winning author, who grew up in Salinas, wrote about many things: migrant workers, labor "agitators," World War II, the Mexican Revolution, New England, Russia, even Vietnam. But his most endearing and enduring works centered on the people and places he knew best, from the coast and farmland of the Salinas Valley between San Francisco and Los Angeles.
The center opened in 1998 as a library and research facility and place to store and display Steinbeck memorabilia. While Steinbeck scholars can meet here to discuss his work and life, its 30,000 annual visitors also include ordinary fans and other visitors curious about his work and life. The area around Salinas is scenic and popular among tourists, with Monterey County wineries, the Pacific Coast and other attractions nearby. Big Sur, which has connections to literary figures like Henry Miller, Jack Kerouac and poet Robinson Jeffers among others, is 50 miles away.
Even those who don't know much about Steinbeck's work will come away from a visit to the center with a sense of his life and times. Curators have blended the work of artists, photographers and historians to bring back the atmosphere of the places he described, set mostly between the World Wars.
Here are the migrant labor camps; the louse-ridden bunkhouses of the migrant "bindle-stiffs" (as hobos were called); Lee Chong's grocery; and the entrance to the Bear Flag Restaurant, which was the name of Cannery Row's "stern and stately whorehouse," which Steinbeck described as a clean, one-price joint presided over by its formidable yet soft-touch madam, Dora Flood. Here is Ed Ricketts, "Doc'" in Cannery Row, the eccentric operator of a marine biological lab, who was a character in the book but also a real person and close friend of Steinbeck's.
Some incidents in his writings were also based on real events, such as the failed 1916 attempt to refrigerate lettuce in rail cars to bring the produce to Eastern markets, depicted in East of Eden.
And Steinbeck's mastery of the vernacular, an ability to write the way people then talked, in a beautifully unrefined manner, can be traced not just to his observations of speech but to input from a mentor, Tom Collins, an anthropologist who researched speech patterns and customs, according to museum archivist Herb Behrens.
Steinbeck's family had been ranchers in the Salinas-King City area, said Herb Behrens, the museum's archivist, and many of the characters in works such as The Red Pony and The Long Valley almost certainly reflected people the writer knew as a child. This sometimes got in him in the doghouse locally, since the not-always-favorable depictions often could be identified by townspeople.
Those researching his work for the many later screenplays of his books concluded that if anything, conditions were even worse than Steinbeck portrayed them. Steinbeck and photographer Horace Bristol visited migrant areas for Life magazine for a piece on the impact of floods in 1937 and '38, but Life rejected the pictures as too graphic, Behrens said. After the 1940 film "The Grapes of Wrath" won two Oscars and was nominated for five more, Life published the pictures.
Loops from some of the many movies made from his books play in the museum's pocket theaters. Many of the buildings in old photos in the museum remain standing in the adjacent Old Town, and are easily recognized. Steinbeck's boyhood home, a wedding cake of a Queen Anne structure three blocks from the center at 132 Central Ave., suggests stability and comfort. It is a restaurant now, called The Steinbeck House
Steinbeck said he initially wrote East of Eden for his for his sons because "I wanted them to know how it was, I wanted to tell them directly." His work and the Steinbeck Center have kept that world alive for others as well.

Connecting Riding Styles to Bikes
While all bikes are generally the same, with a seat (saddle), two wheels, and a frame, there are many variables that affect the type of bicycle appropriate for you. From upright bikes with internal gears designed for city riding to single-speed racing bikes, there is a wide variety of bikes currently on the market. The following section is an introduction to the most common bikes and the differences between them.

Wading through indoor heated pools, the instructors at British Swim School teach independent swimming skills to learners aged 3 months and older, adhering to a curriculum devised by British national swimmer Rita Goldberg. The 30-minute one-on-one sessions and small-group lessons, containing six or fewer swimmers, elucidate essential techniques for water safety and the importance of speaking fluent manatee. Swimboree (ages 3 months–3 years with parents) and Young Minnows sessions (ages 1–3 years without parents) teach wee swimmers basic water-survival skills, such as the back float. Turtle One and Turtle Two classes focus on freestyle, backstroke, and breaststroke maneuvers, honing more structured swimming skills in older kiddos. British Swim School's Shark courses enhance stamina and speed and teach even more demanding strokes, such as the butterfly and little-known mountain-goat flail. Certain British Swim School classes require parents to participate in the water or to supervise from the pool deck, and adults-only lessons allow grown-ups to refine their own abilities without the supervision of a toddler.
At each Jump!Zone locale nationwide, children aged 2–12 race through themed play areas, bounce on inflatables, and fly down giant slides. Boys and girls can become airborne in SpongeBob SquarePants and Atlantis-themed bouncers or slide near the vigilant figure of Batman, which, as in real life, is 16 feet tall and filled with air. Kids 18 months and older can tackle a multi-level play-zone maze, and the whole family can blast away in the ball-o-city ball-shooting arena. Meanwhile, Jump!Zone's interactive arcade caters to older children and teens who'd rather game than bounce.
Tots with aspirations to be firefighters slide into a bouncy fire truck, and hopeful time travelers acquaint themselves with their future by examining prehistory in the Jurassic Adventure. Pintsize play timers can dispatch their financial stresses in the Toddler Zone. While the kids play, their adult counterparts can enjoy complimentary coffee, relax in the café, use Jump!Zone's free WiFi and computer, and finally have time to recite the periodic table of elements in peace. Check the schedule for open-play hours.
Strikers Family Sportscenter invites guests to perfect their pin felling on 1 of 40 lanes. Bowlers handpick their favorite from a selection of neon balls and watch the 42-inch scoring monitors come to life with animated computer graphics. On weekend nights, flashing lights and music break up the rolling repetition during Rockin' Roll glow bowl. For cross-training, the arcade keeps bowling arms in tip-top shape with skee-ball and whack-a-duck. The snack bar restores nutrients lost performing the worm down an opponent's lane, hot wings and onion rings to a crisp and peppering 14-inch pizzas with a choice of 10 colorful toppings.
Within a neon-colored lair packed end-to-end with colorfully flashing games, GameRoom?s arcade master invite players of all ages to plunk down their tokens for a chance to experience games as they were meant to be played. Classics such as skee ball and claw machines reward skill with handsome prizes, and driving simulators and action games impress with modern graphics and head-to-head competition. Once the games are through, competitors can retire to the onsite Johnny Rocket's complete with 28 flat-screen HDTVs or tell their defeated friends which toppings to choose at the frozen yogurt shop.
First opened in 1968, the Electric Factory has been hosting rock shows for almost as long Puerto Rico has been a state. After dancing their faces off to headliners from Erykah Badu to the Dropkick Murphys, concertgoers can stop by The Chive Caf? to recharge with a cheesesteak or an all-beef hotdog on a potato bun, or refill their draft Yuengling at the bar. In summer, the Electric Factory reveals an outdoor location complete with more refreshment booths, vendors, and upgraded food stands.
The certified dance instructors at Arthur Murray Dance Studio teach beginner-level ballroom, Latin, swing, and social-partnership dance classes in group settings, and also offer private lessons to singles, couples, and singles perched on the shoulders of couples. Instructors emphasize technique, style, and variation of dance patterns during 45-minute group lessons. Group classes also give the opportunity to dance with a variety of partners, develop good dancing habits, and meet other students in the studio. The size of group lessons varies from as few as four students to as many as 20, enabling rhythmic upgrades for both small families and aspiring battalions. Classes take place Tuesday and Thursday evenings at 7 p.m. and 7:45 p.m.

The Global Intelligence Files
On Monday February 27th, 2012, WikiLeaks began publishing The Global Intelligence Files, over five million e-mails from the Texas headquartered "global intelligence" company Stratfor. The e-mails date between July 2004 and late December 2011. They reveal the inner workings of a company that fronts as an intelligence publisher, but provides confidential intelligence services to large corporations, such as Bhopal's Dow Chemical Co., Lockheed Martin, Northrop Grumman, Raytheon and government agencies, including the US Department of Homeland Security, the US Marines and the US Defence Intelligence Agency. The emails show Stratfor's web of informers, pay-off structure, payment laundering techniques and psychological methods.

Helping Haiti
Categories: Making Our Difference: TBL CSR, Rantings of Responsible Bootmakers
The shock of yesterday's 7.0 earthquake in Haiti is being felt around the world.
We wait now for news of both damage and survivors … we pray for those whose lives and families have been devastated … and we unite, in concern and compassion and with a desire to do whatever we can to contribute to the relief and recovery Haiti and its community desperately and urgently need.
Waiting is unavoidable. Praying is, for many, instinctive. But uniting in common concern and acting, in hopes of turning devastation into renewal, is where our greatest power now lies.
A few months back, Timberland announced its partnership with Yéle Haiti – a grassroots movement that builds global awareness for Haiti while transforming the country through educational, cultural and environmental programs. At the time, the vision for our partnership with Yele Haiti was one of reforestation – building a tree nursery in Gonaives , a city in northern Haiti devastated by a series of hurricanes and storms; enlisting local farmers to maintain it; and using the trees grown there to reforest the hillsides surrounding the city.
Yesterday afternoon, our partnership with Yele Haiti took a dramatic and unexpected turn. Many communities in the island nation have been reduced to rubble … and instead of focusing on ways to positively transform those communities, Yele Haiti today is mobilizing medical and emergency supplies to provide them critical relief.
As part of our partnership with Yele Haiti, Timberland makes a donation to the organization for every pair of Earthkeepers™ Yele Haiti boots and every Yele Haiti t-shirt that we sell. While the original intent for that donation was to support Haiti's reforestation, we're now rededicating our efforts – and our donation – to the country's earthquake relief.
It is good intent and good effort … but undoubtedly not enough. Should you wish to contribute personally to the massive relief effort underway, this link will allow you to donate directly to the Yéle Haiti organization. You can also donate $5 to the Yele Haiti Earthquake Fund by texting the word "yele" to 501501.
While the enormity of this earthquake has left destruction beyond comprehension, the will, spirit and soul of people around the globe who are willing to help a nation in need will equally astound. Together, we can and will help Haiti and its people heal, strengthen and recover.
Jeff Swartz
President & CEO, Timberland

Because who doesn't love receiving socks for Christmas?
Socks are often written off as a non-gift. It's what you give someone in the office or buy for the Secret Santa raffle. But socks do not deserve this reputation. They actually play a pivotal role in your outfit and should be treated with respect. First of all, they serve an important protection purpose: they keep you warm and make the experience of wearing heavy boots and shoes pleasant. But, as with everything else you wear, your socks are an extension of your personality. Bright or sombre colours? Wool or cotton? Stripy or check? The alternatives are endless. Perhaps you wear black ones while at work and let loose over the weekend? But even in a formal environment, socks are an excellent way to add a bit of humour to your outfit.
Our Corgi cotton socks are made in Wales and our first pick of the bunch are these subtle floral patterned pair, which add a perfect edge to the navy background. Fancy going all Technicolour on your socks? The pink and yellow colour combination will ensure your feet get the attention they deserve. But the Fairisle wool pair is the daddy of all Ben Sherman socks. In either black/white or navy/white, the pattern is subtle yet directional, the perfect Christmas sock… maybe even good enough to double up Christmas stockings?

Everybody praise Tumblr founder David Karp, for he has managed to complete a bajillion dollar renovation on a stunning Williamsburg loft, all the while avoiding the tacky Star Trek vision that most people conjure when picturing the abode of a tech founder. That is the takeaway from a design story in the New York Times, which spotlights Mr. Karp's recently completed spacious loft apartment in the heart of South Williamsburg.
Mr. Karp's new digs shun the traditional emblems of tech geeks: there are no screens or shiny modern touches. Instead, his fancy interior designer described it as "mildly steampunk," with giant windows, exposed brick walls and a massive clawfoot tub placed smack in the middle of the top floor.
As the visionary behind Tumblr, Mr. Karp is very particular about design, including the notion that drywall has destroyed Tribeca. Likewise for fancy condos gentrifying Williamsburg–with its rustic charm, Mr. Karp's loft is in no way similar to the other tacky buildings driving rent up in Brooklyn:
"I get so nauseated when I see these big glassy things," he says, which look like "something out of Florida." He denounces the spread of "generic, superbland architecture by people who decided that contemporary architecture is big glassy buildings. The stuff bums me out."
Regardless of his questionable choice in fixtures, he's got one thing right: Palo Alto certainly does seem like a miserable place to live.

Frank Moses (Bruce Willis) used to be a hired gun for the CIA. Along with Joe (Morgan Freeman), Marvin (John Malkovich), and Victoria (Helen Mirren), Frank's specialty was carrying out contracts that the government didn't want the public to know about. These days, Frank and his old gang are all retired, but the powers that be are still concerned that they know too much, and dispatch a team of top assassins to ensure their silence. Desperate for a place to hide out, Frank flees to the apartment of Sarah Ross (Mary-Louise Parker), the bored, cubicle-dwelling phone jockey charged with ensuring that his pension checks arrive on time. While Frank and Sarah have developed a friendly phone rapport by exchanging notes on trashy romance novels, Sarah isn't too happy to find an unfamiliar face lurking in her darkened living room. With the bad guys closing in, Frank kidnaps Sarah and races to seek out the help of his old cohorts in killing. Now, Frank and his former team members realize that their only hope for survival is to break into CIA headquarters and expose the truth. But once they're in, the group uncovers evidence of a massive cover-up that promises to rock the very foundation of our government.
It's hardly a revelation that the cast of RED is one of the film's most appealing features. Not only do all the main players look like they're having a blast with the heavy artillery, but they share an onscreen camaraderie that makes watching them just as fun. The comic chemistry between Willis and Parker propels the action nicely early on, but once Malkovich comes bounding out of the brush, things really kick into high gear. "Unhinged" would be an appropriate adjective to describe his performance as an intensely paranoid assassin whose brain has been remapped by LSD, and his wild-eyed antics alone are nearly worth the cost of admission. Freeman is a wily combination of canny and loose, hitting all of his comic marks right on target, and elegant Mirren looks positively radiant accessorized with an MP5. An unlikely romantic match for Mirren given his gruff demeanor, Brian Cox is strangely affecting as an indispensable Russian ally, and Karl Urban shares the screen with these imposing veteran players with style and confidence. Incredibly, Richard Dreyfuss is almost more hammy here than he was in Piranha 3D, if that can be believed.
Director Schwentke displays a commendable flair for action, working well with cinematographer Florian Ballhaus (son of acclaimed DP Michael Ballhaus) to serve up high-energy sequences that don't sacrifice coherence for style. And while Schwentke's lively direction seems to grow a bit more pedestrian with each passing scene, RED still looks great, and moves at a brisk pace as veteran editor Thom Noble works overtime to smooth out some minor but noticeable pacing issues in Jon and Erich Hoeber's clunky screenplay.
A playful action blockbuster with a top-shelf cast and a refreshingly unconventional concept, RED is a fast-moving action film that younger audiences will be drawn to because of its energy and graphic-novel roots and older audiences will enjoy for the cast and the script's playful subversion of geriatric stereotypes. leave a comment --Jason Buchanan

Trim back plants and debris around the condenser. Remove bushes, trim branches, and make sure that everything is out of its way so the condenser can readily breathe. Bushes should be kept at a distance of 2' around and 4' across the top.
Make sure the fins on the coil stand up true. If these get bent, they'll block airflow. Using a piece of flatware or a fin comb, carefully straighten any fins.
Check and make sure the condenser is level.
If the condenser is off level, put a piece of pressure-treated lumber underneath one side to bring it back level.
Disconnect the power and rinse the condenser thoroughly with the garden hose, making sure to remove all loose debris that might have fallen on the unit.

"Lame, Formulaic Storyline"
The storyline is just so formulaic and boring. A very weak story created as an excuse to get from one seduction/sex scene to another. I'm all for light entertainment and I wasn't expecting some deep story - but this is just bad.
"Ended too Soon"
This book ended in the middle of the story. The villian was easily/quickly foiled and Nina never learned and/or explored her new powers. There was so much more that should've been expanded upon but wasn't. That being said, it was otherwise an enjoyable listen that kept me entertained.
Probably not
I wouldn't likely try another book by this author because there are too many books to spend my time hoping the next by this author is interesting. This book lacked any semblance of an engaging story.
If there was a real plot aside from a few secrets being kept and forgiven
The story progressed nicely and kept me engaged. I liked that the storyline was on the light side where you can just sit back and enjoy.
If you like this book you'll like anything written by Molly Harper.
This book was entertaining - it held my interest throughout. I will definitely purchase the books from the rest of the series.
The narrator is so bad at foreign accents! I don't think she actually knows what a spanish or russian accent sounds like because she got them all wrong.
"Cheesy and Lame"
The story focused solely on this werewolf wanting to force himself on a vampire for 6 chapters - to the point where I lost interest in the book. I couldn't make myself waste more time on this boring, lame book. There was no story or character development at all. The only reason to read this book is as supernatural porn - that's about it. I don't mind books with explicit love scenes but a story should be the primary focus - not the other way around.
I like that the story is light yet entertaining enough to hold my interest and keep me engaged in the story.
Probably not - I find Olivia's irrational and semi-stupid character annoying. The story is OK and entertaining enough but Olivia's character drags it down to where I don't think I will continue listening to this series - especially when there are so many books I'd rather listen to that are better. So I couldn't recommend this to someone else when I'm not even sold on the series.
Have Olivia stop being irrational and also, perhaps, listen to the people who have experience with danger instead of insisting she (who has had no experience) knows better. And perhaps discuss her relationship concerns with Cash instead of internalizing it. But of course doing something as common sense as communicating properly would've taken out a major part of this story - god forbit
"Didn't feel compelled to finish book"
I would not recommend because, though the author is talented at painting a picture and is a true wordsmith, I just felt no connection or interest in the characters and what happened to them. I can see where others may like this book but its not for me.
"Potential - but not engaging"
I would not recommend it because I found the author put too much extraneous information in there and the characters were not interesting at all. The basic premise of the story is good but not enough to make up for everything else. It's also kinda cliche - to the point of being slightly corny.
Was difficult to distinguish between characters as they all sounded pretty similar, if not the same
Yes, good story
It toke me a little bit to get into the book - but once the premise of the story was established and the story really got going, I enjoyed it. I will definitely be getting the next book in the series.

The highest paid athletes in the world with Cristiano Ronaldo and Beckham
The highest paid athletes in the world. Cristiano Ronaldo and Beckham, the two were among the biggest earners in sports according to the list released by Forbes after they bought in a combined $88.5 million in salaries and endorsements last year.
David Beckham and Cristiano Ronaldo both feature in the list of the top 10 highest earners in the world of sport compiled by Forbes.
The former England captain pipped the Real Madrid star to eighth place, earning $9 million at LA Galaxy with $37 million coming in from various endorsements in 2011.
Ronaldo's salary dwarfed Beckham's, with the Portuguese raking in $20.5 million for his services at the Santiago Bernabeu last year. He made less from endorsements, however, having earned $22 million for his 'extra curricular' activities.
The wing duo, who both wore the No. 7 shirt for Manchester United, brought in a massive $88.5 million together but that total is only slightly more than the figure boxer Floyd Mayweather received for just two fights on his own.

Hi D, I agree about having people overnight. It just breaks the routine and is tiring for some reason. Strange about that, but true.
hope you enjoy your quiet home time tonight....
|Wed, 02-27-2013 - 9:42am
Hi D,
Actually the outing yesterday did me no good at all. Feel like crap again today, the running /stuffed nose is back and I'm tired. Just not ready for outings yet.... I could not sleep well either, I woke up in such a sweat I had to get up and change my pj's and wipe my neck,,,, "sweating it out" I guess... hate that....
Today I was back to doing nothing, TV, a bit of reading, IVillage and em's, that 's all..... blah.
|Tue, 02-26-2013 - 8:50pm
I've been doing okay, not great, not bad.
Getting lots of water, exercising most days, eating healthy.
Sometimes my portions could be smaller, but doing pretty good.
I've just had two days and two sleep overs of my two youngest grandloves due to another snow storm and the closing of all schools. The kids are so good and easy to take care of, but just having people in my home is exhausting with the extra work of meals and constant tidying up and entertaing them so forth. Enjoying our quiet home tonight.
Have a good week everyone!!
|Tue, 02-26-2013 - 8:38pm
Suzan...Hope you are sound asleep now and will have a restful night.
Good you're able to get out and walk around. Hope you'll continue to get well now.
Good job on choosing fruits over sweets too!!

Monday: rested , drank water, etc... was a good girl
Tuesday: I drove to the supermarket to pick up some "grub". Dh has been doing it but I really needed to get there and pick out all the things he's forgotten... I passed the cookies and candies counters: that's a good sign. I've been trying to eat more fruit. Normally I would not have gone out as it was snowing but I really think I need to try to gain back some stamina after this flu.... so little by little I'll start to do stuff. (no noth cleaning). Walking around mainly.... to improve my gait and instability..... giving myself a gold start and I'm sure I'll sleep well tonight.
