Police Cadets
Officer Limon, Eddie
Officer Gibson, La Keisha
Age range: 14 –21 years
This program provides insight to those who would like to pursue a career in Law Enforcement. Cadets are given the proper framework to develop a sharp mind and physically fit body. Using a paramilitary structure, these uniformed volunteers work side by side with Police Officers on real police assignments. Cadets also develop a better understanding of our local form of government and learn the responsibilities as a citizen.
Deputy Auxiliary Police (DAP)
Officer Jackson, Deryl
Officer Norwood, Tiffany
Age range: 7-14 years
The department's youth development program, which provides disadvantaged children the opportunity to experience and participate in activities to occupy their time and energy. Children with this program generally have not had negative contact with the police and have a stable relationship with their parents. The real benefit is adult guidance and keeping sports in and gangs out.
Officer Jackson, Deryl
Officer Norwood, Tiffany
Age range: 7-18 years
The department's "youth at risk" program, which is founded on the belief that early intervention for a specific population of youth will reduce juvenile crime. The program identifies children who are at high risk in becoming involved in the dangers of a delinquent lifestyle. "High risk" usually includes one or more of the following; minor arrests, gang activity, truancy citations, runaways, and/or unstable home life. The program will provide them and their parents with the guidance and activities that will instill self-esteem and discipline; therefore giving the child a more positive and productive role in our society. Most referrals are received from Police Officers, schools, parents, and Juvenile court.
Police Athletic League (PAL)
The mission of the PAL program is to reduce Juvenile Crime and Delinquency by uniting Law Enforcement Officers and youth through quality activities designed to develop discipline self esteem, mutual trust and respect. The West Los Angeles PAL program is new and in and early development.
The goal is to have youth involved in a variety of athletic activities that promote discipline, self esteem and emphasize respect for the sports and others.

The iconic photos from the southern plains states during the Great Depression say it all: the haunted eyes of weary mothers, children with their faces wrapped against the choking dust and families piling their belongings into trucks and heading to California.In the two-part documentary The Dust Bowl, filmmaker Ken Burns (The Civil War, Baseball, Prohibition) focuses on the nearly decade-long drought that, coupled with unsustainable farming techniques, destroyed millions of acres in Oklahoma, Texas, Kansas, Colorado and New Mexico. "It was the worst manmade ecological disaster in American history," Burns says. "Franklin Roosevelt could sweep his finger across his Oval Office desk and come up with a little bit of Oklahoma."Through archival photos, vintage newsreels and interviews with dozens of elderly survivors, Burns tells the harrowing, ultimately inspiring tale (narrated by Peter Coyote). "This will be the last time anybody is able to record a firsthand story of what happened," he says.Though there are no "hard and fast villains," Burns notes, many preventable mistakes were made. "The government encouraged the settlement of dry areas that shouldn't have been [farmed]," he says. "Land speculators moved in and raised prices exorbitantly, and absentee farmers left their exposed land to blow on neighbors.""But," he continues, "it's also a story of the extraordinary forces that came together, mainly from the government, to help save the region." Because of technological advances, the southern plains land is once again a fertile breadbasket, but its future is still uncertain."The area gets its water from the vast underground Ogallala Aquifer that even the optimistic know will run out within our children's lifetimes," Burns says, adding that "black blizzards" created by droughts are still a threat. "There was a recent dust storm in Oklahoma that caused a multi-car accident," he says. "With climate change and other ecosystems on the brink of collapse, let us hope that the Depression Dust Bowl remains our worst ecological disaster."The Dust Bowl airs Sunday and Monday at 8/7c on PBS (check tvguide.com local listings).Subscribe to TV Guide Magazine now!

The Silence of the Lambs, produced by Edward Saxon, Kenneth Utt, Ron Bozman
MGM StudiosTraditionally, earnest dramas with popular social or political messages are named best picture, but The Silence of the Lambs defied tradition by becoming the first psychological thriller since Rebecca (1940) to win that honor. The dark story follows FBI trainee Clarice Starling (Jodie Foster, AA) as she pursues a serial killer (played by Ted Levine) with the help of notorious psychopath Hannibal Lecter (Anthony Hopkins, AA). The film's grisly subject matter did not scare off typically conventional Academy voters, and the tight direction, clever script, and Hopkins's compelling performance resulted in a sweep of the five top Oscars. The Silence of the Lambs became only the third film to win awards for best picture, actor, actress, director, and writer. The previous two were It Happened One Night (1934) and One Flew over the Cuckoo's Nest (1975).
The Silence of the Lambs, produced by Edward Saxon, Kenneth Utt, and Ron Bozman, directed by Jonathan Demme (AA), screenplay by Ted Tally (AA) based on the novel of the same name by Thomas Harris.

The New York Yankees take centerstage on Broadway in a new play called "Bronx Bombers." NY1's Roma Torre filed the following review.
It's obviously about the Yankees, but that's no reason for non-fans of the team to sit this one out. No, there are other reasons to do that. It's just not a very good play.
It's populated by a who's who of Yankee greats past and present, and at the center of it all is the inimitable Yogi Berra. The famed Yankees catcher is a natural for stage depiction with his trademark yogi-isms and stooped gait. And Peter Scolari's wonderful portrayal is a home run.
But Eric Simonson's play is a disjointed work divided into four disparate scenes. The first scene, the only one that qualifies as drama, features a notorious episode in Yankee history. In 1977, manager Billy Martin and slugger Reggie Jackson had it out in a Fenway Park dugout, and it was all caught on camera. As the scene unfolds, Yogi Berra, then the coach, tries to diffuse tensions by inviting Martin and Jackson to a hotel room along with team captain Thurman Munson to hash it out.
Scene two introduces Yogi's enthusiastic wife, Carmen, but little happens.
After intermission, fans will have a field day with scene three, a dream sequence detailing a dinner hosted by the Berras with guests Lou Gehrig, Joe DiMaggio, Elston Howard, Mickey Mantle, Derek Jeter and, of course, The Babe himself. Despite an attempt to humanize them all, they might as well have halos circling their heads.
Scene four takes place on the final game of the hallowed Yankee Stadium.
Performances are quite good. In dual roles, Francois Battiste playing Reggie Jackson and Elston Howard, and Bill Dawes as Thurman Munson and Mickey Mantle, are standouts, but it's those iconic pinstripes that steal the show.
"Bronx Bombers" is a work that defies dramatic critique. It's red meat for hardcore fans, and as a sentimental tribute, it scores. But theatrically speaking, it strikes out.

Wishing a very Happy Diwali to all the readers. May your Diwali be as colorful, joyous and noisy as ours!

Chole Video
This recipe for chole is part one of a two part recipe of a Punjabi food favorite, chole bhature. Chole bhature can be found at fancy restaurants, street side vendors which line the streets of Bombay (famous for spicy Punjabi food), railway stations and many more places.
Chole is chickpeas cooked in spicy gravy and bhature is the bread – deep fried bread – which is what makes it such an extra special treat. Next week I'll be posting our video recipe for bhature. In the meantime, you can get in some practice on the main dish.

Palak Paneer Video
One of the best things about making these videos with Mummy-ji is that it has given us something to connect over. As I'm still struggling to learn Hindi, Mummy-ji and I cannot say much to each other. How do you bond with someone when you can't talk and joke with them? It's been a tricky situation and one I often struggle with as I would love to be close with her. Spending everyday in the kitchen, hovering over her shoulder or under her elbow has certainly helped to bring us closer together. Before I publish a new video, I always show it to Mummy-ji so she can see the results of our work together. I love to see the smile that spreads across her face when Hubby and I share with her the comments and emails so many people send us aboutRead More
Shahi Paneer Video
This recipe comes from my new friend and Hindi teacher, Seema. Everyday we meet for an hour and half and I struggle through not being allowed to speak English. When I told Seema I write a blog about Indian cooking and that I make videos with my Mummy-ji, she immediately invited me to her home to make some videos with her and her family. I went to her beautiful home and met her sister-in-law, Madhu, who joined us in the kitchen to show us how she makes one of her best dishes, Shahi Paneer. Shahi Paneer roughly translates as "Royal Paneer" and the taste of this dish lives up to it's glamorous title. Seema and I recorded a great video on how to cook perfect rice, which will be posted next week. For today, we all get toRead More
Magazine Interview
I am absolutely thrilled to share with you my first magazine interview. Poor Taste Magazine has featured a fun interview with me as their October Blogger of the Month.
If someone would have told me a year ago that I would see my interview in a magazine, I would have looked over my shoulder and wondered who they were talking about!
Check out the interview for some fun back story about the blog and a few personal tidbits.Read More
Chai Video
I have got many of my friends addicted to chai. Once they experience what real chai tastes like, they tell me a store-bought chai just doesn't do it anymore. I've sent many a new chai addict home with their own bundle of Indian tea and an index card with instructions, to help them enjoy chai anytime they'd like. Now, with the help of this video recipe, they can make it whenever they want. Maybe I'll start coming to their place for chai.Read More
Ganesh Festival
It was such a great coincidence that we arrived in India at the beginning of one of the biggest festivals in Bombay; the Ganesh festival, known in India as Ganesh Chaturthi. It's 11 days of dancing in the streets, handfuls of colored powders being thrown in the air and an endless processional of loud drums. It's an annual celebration of the birthday of Lord Ganesh. Each neighborhood builds their own enormous Ganesh statue, housed in a fantastic temporary shrine for all the locals to come and pay homage. The 11 days of celebration culminates in the dismantling of each shrine and a countless number of parades begin carrying the larger than life statues of Lord Ganesh to the nearest ocean, where they are immersed. For Bombay,Read More
Aloo Gobi Video
Our first full cooking video with Mummy-ji is here. This was one of the first recipes we made together, potatoes and cauliflower known as aloo gobi in Hindi. It is one of Hubby's childhood favorites and a dish I like to turn to when looking for something quick and tasty.
As for making the first full video tutorial, it look me this entire week to learn how to edit in iMovie and it has been well worth the trouble. I have always wanted to make step-by-step videos as watching someone make a recipe is the way I learn to cook, so I'm thrilled to finally have the opportunity to offer this to everyone.Read More
Cooking Videos
Mummy-ji and I have been cooking up a storm this week. She has been a great sport while I've gotten myself in the strangest positions, trying to find the best possible angles to capture each recipe. More than a few times my dupatta (scarf) has been in danger of catching on fire during a few particularly acrobatic angles.
This week, we are working on editing the footage and into great step-by-step videos of Mummy-ji's wonderful cooking. Here is a snippet of what is coming up in the next few weeks:Read More
Annual India Trip
We are on our annual India Trip and this year I'm spending most of my trip in the kitchen. Mummy-ji and I are side by side almost everyday while she teaches me each and every step of some of her favorite recipes. Hubby's made it known which dishes are top priority to learn from her while I'm here. I thought it would be fun to include some detailed videos of our readers' favorite recipes, featuring the cook who makes them best. So check back soon and keep your computers and kitchens ready for a series of how-to videos.
Here is a preview of the recipes and videos to come. Stay tuned as more and more videos will be making their way to the blog faster than you can say "how do you make navratan korma?"Read More
Exploring Felton
On a Friday night it's more than likely to find Hubby and I packing a weekend's worth of Indian food into the trunk of our car and heading over the hill to Aptos and La Selva Beach, where my parents live. We spend most of our weekends enjoying the good weather of Santa Cruz County, especially during the summer months. So when I got the chance last week to speak at a blogging event in Felton, an old-fashioned town in the Santa Cruz mountains famous for it's redwoods and railroads, I was surprised to realize I had never spent any time there before.
The town is amazingly picturesque as if it were pulled from the pagesRead More
Handmade Dough
I've been having a curious desire to return from machine made to handmade. It all started from a realization with chapati dough. I had learned to make chapati dough by hand, using a traditional Indian dough pan. When the day came to make a new batch of dough, I dreaded it. The job was time consuming and tedious, mainly because the large pan was so shallow I wasn't able to mix easily. Eventually I switched to the food processor and soon progressed to the electric mixer, complete with dough hook attachment. These convenience machines made the once daunting task quick and easy, with hardly any effort on my part; until it came time for cleanup. They may knead dough in record time, but every crevice and attachment had to beRead More
Making Paneer
If you've been joining me in trying a hand at homemade ghee, you know I decided to carry out a little experiment to see how much it would cost to make my own ghee using butter bought in bulk from Costco. The results are stacked in my fridge…two large jars worth. The savings were so inspiring that I began to wonder what other ways I could cut kitchen costs.
My new curiosity: would this work with paneer? Twice a month, I buy two full gallons of milk at Costco. Even though Hubby and I are avid chai addicts, this is much more milk than we need, but it's still so much cheaper than shopping at my local Safeway. So I decided toRead More
Ghee Recipe
I've noticed it takes about half an hour to make ghee, whether I'm boiling two sticks of butter or sixteen sticks of butter. The first batch I made, I assumed it would take an hour. So I set the timer and walked away. When I came back the ghee had over cooked and all the butter was browned. It wasn't exactly what I was hoping for but it wasn't a complete loss either. Browned butter has an intense flavor, which is somewhat sweet. So if you happen to over cook your ghee and end up with browned butter, don't throw it away. It's often used in pastries and is a great accompaniment to caramel desserts.Read More
Homemade Ghee
Whether you want to save money, or you don't have access to store bought ghee, making your own ghee at home is cheap and easy. I've always bought my ghee from the Indian store, being perfectly content getting it ready made. I never would have considered making my own…until I noticed the price of ghee slowly but surely increasing. The twenty ounce bottle of ghee I add to my basket every couple months started out around seven dollars and now costs me thirteen. I didn't think much of it beyond wishing the price would stay put. Then on a trip to India, I saw so many people in the neighborhood making their own ghee at home. To them, store bought ghee was completely unnecessary, a waste of both time and money.

In March 2014, "Ballet Classics" springs to life at Fayetteville State University's Seabrook Auditorium and Methodist University's Reeves Auditorium. "Ballet Classics," danced by the North Carolina State Ballet and the Fayetteville State Dance Ensemble, is directed by Charlotte Blume and will feature two separate Ballets.
The featured Ballet will be "Swan Lake" Act II. With Lyrical choreography by Lev Ivanov and a haunting score by Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky. "Swan Lake," may be the best known of the Classic Ballets. Prince Siegfried is on a hunting trip with friends. They come upon a mist-covered lake and find "Swans" circling and landing. As Siegfried is about to shoot an arrow at a white swan, she turns into a beautiful girl. She tells him that she has been transformed into a swan by the sinister Rothbart, who assumes the form of an owl. If Rothbart dies, the girls must remain swans forever. Only true love for the "Swan Queen," can break the spell and free them. Siegfried promises his love. With hope renewed, dawn approaches. Rothbart reappears as the girls return to the lake.
Part II of "Ballet Classics," will include "Variations" from the Ballet "Raymonda," with music by Alexander Glazunov, and a neo classic piece, "Jupiter,", from "The Planets,", by Gustav Holst.
Reservations for public and school performances may be made by calling the Ballet Company at (910) 485-4965 or through our Website. Tickets may be purchased through EventBrite, or at the door. Tickets go on sale February 15, 2014.

The Mighty Bright book light
People on my Facebook may have seen this on my status last night — I learned a new word, librocubicularist, which means "someone who reads in bed."
Because I am an unabashed librocubicularist, I often read in the dark, because I like drifting off to sleep in the middle of a book. In the latter half of 2010, though, my nocturnal reading was severely curtailed (maybe this explains the drop in last year's reading figures) because I was without a book light for some period of time: my Lumos lightwedge went out of commission (batteries leaked and stuck in the narrow terminals, and their customer service could not give me any advice on how to get them out!); the Really Tiny Book Light turned out to be the Ridiculously (Expensive but) Flimsy Book Light that conked out after a less than a dozen uses; and the lightwedge clone turned out to be, well, a dud.
My book club friends and I were making our rounds of the bargain bookstores one day when I spotted a row of little rectangular boxes on a shelf full of toys and school supplies. It was labeled: Mighty Bright Flex II and when I saw it was a book light at an amazingly low price, I quickly called everyone over and we happily trooped to the counter with at least one box each.
The Mighty Bright Flex II is a compact book light with 2 LED Lights, and it really is mighty bright!
It comes in different colors (at the store there were black, lime green, and pink lights to choose from), and it has a standing base with a built-in clip (the kind that won't ruin the pages of your book), a flexible neck that bends in any direction but holds its shape when you adjust it, and a power switch that gives you the option to use two LEDs or just one LED light. The device is powered by three triple A batteries, but there is an adapter jack so you can also plug in with any AC adapter.
Here it is in action:
I've been using it for about three weeks now, and I must say I'm loving it so far. The light is bright and even, and I like that it stands on its own so I don't have to keep adjusting it every time I turn the page. It feels sturdy, and the push-button power switch presses firmly, so I don't have to worry about accidentally jostling it in the middle of the night and turning it on by accident.
I love that it offers different options in terms of lighting (one light – two light) and power source (AAAs are so much easier to find than round batteries, plus I can get rechargeable batteries, too; and I simply adore them for the AC adapter option!). I also love that I can fold it down into a compact size that I can easily slip into the pocket of my carry-all when I travel.
Not bad, for a bargain bin find! Must remember to get some spares next time I'm at that store.

Not bad! Thanks for the info, now I know I too am a librocubicularist :)
I have a similar looking book light from Energizer. It's around P300-400 and has LED light also. The replacement batteries(round, flat ones) cost around P40 something per pack. Bought it at Ace Hardware. I love it cause the long thin handle of the book light is very flexible!
Pero now, that's something cheaper and looks like it can perform as well. I keep on changing batteries because I wear them out easily so I might need something cheaper. :P
Hi there! No more in stock at the store we bought from, and I haven't seen this brand locally since then.
More types of booklights are making their way to the local book stores, albeit still pricey, around P400 and up. I've heard good reviews of the Energizer book light, in case you want to try it out.
Sorry, I missed your question. I got mine at the Central branch, but I was hoping for a restock and wala na talaga. Oh yeah, this post linked to your post about the Light wedge clone. Would you be interested in getting a new Light Wedge? Because I saw lots for sale at True Value hardware in Trinoma. The price is pretty steep though, 2000+ for the original size.

It was JT's birthday last week, so I took her to Milk Bar for fun times :D
First thing I noticed when I walked in, was the beaaautiful aroma of foods cooking, I mean look at those giant jam donuts that the owner Josh was busily piping away, I was so tempted to get one but had to rush and do some things so couldn't be distracted!!! They were seriously huge, like the size of my fist if not bigger! And look at that injection nozzle thing, totally awesome!!
Anyhoots, busied myself preparing JT's birthday cake before she got to Milk Bar. I was making a banoffee pie cake, had already made the base and dulce de lece at home, so just had to whip up some cream and cut up bananas.
So there I was whisking the cream for like 10 minutes, and Josh was like "you have around about 30min left to go before it thickens" and I was panicking big time cause Jess would arrive in 10!!! I was whisking so hard my arms felt like they were going to fall off! LOL
But I persevered and got it thick enough, probably not as good as it could have been but good enough to plate! I quickly cut up the bananas and began to construct the cake. Josh took over not to long after and kindly popped the cream on, making it look all pretty! Thanks! :D
He even put all these cool chocolate balls on as well as those fancy chocolate patterns in the middle! Wadda cool bean right? :P
I'm like SMILE YO! And he was like "nooo" HAHA so that was the best I could do, until next time!! :P teehehe
JT arrived soon after, and we got our seats and scoured the menu.
The menu was super awesome, a mix of usual breakfast options, and then there were specials such as AI's freakin awesome chicken wings, soft-shell crab omelette, shakes and sundaes! They had such a comprehensive list of milkshakes that we had the biggest grins on our faces. There was peanut butter and jelly, bounty, rocky road, miso caramel and manyyyy more!
We got the peanut butter and jelly and miso caramel ($7.5 each), as well as the soft-shell crab omelette ($15.50) and AI's freakin awesome chicken wings ($14)! The wings come topped with either vinegar and shallot, crab or hot sauce. We were recommended the vinegar so we went with that :)
Not long after, we were served our soft-shell crab omelette on a cute little wooden table! It came with a side of fries and wasabi mayo!
The crab was piping hot and fresh, and after squeezing a bit of a lime onto it, we dug in!
It was deeelish! The egg was cooked perfectly, stuffed with super crisp and flavoursome crab and avocado and there we had the perfect composition of flavours! Not to mention the delicious chilli crab sauce that was lathered on top! Oh and the fries dipped into the wasabi mayo was sooo goood! Loved the mayo!!!
Next we grabbed ourselves the chicken wings from the cute white basket, which were again cooked to crispy perfection, they were sooo juicy and the sauce..ombelly the vinegar and shallots were so tasty, zesty, totally addictive. I distinctly remember me spooning around for sauce in the basket even after the meats were all gone :P
Loved the presentation of the food, kinda cute, kinda rustic and very aesthetically pleasing :)
And unto the milkshakes. Oh my golly foodness. These were amazing. And I loved how they filled the glasses to the top, and gave us the remaining milkshake on the side!
The PBJ was a glorious concoction of the obvious peanut butter and raspberry jelly, but there was also salted caramel ice-cream and blueberry jelly :O WICCCKED! Hahaha
And the miso caramel was a simple mix of miso paste, vanilla ice-cream and caramel and it was freakin a-m-a-z-i-n-g. It tasted like a salted caramel milkshake BUT BETTER!!! It had all the salty flavours there but didn't make me feel sick even after drinking the whole glass plus more! Woahs. Sooo addictive! It just jumped to the top of my milkshakes list!
Soon after, the cake came out, with a couple of the staff singing happy birthday :D
I was so excited that I forgot to take a photo of the cake lit up, sparkles and all :( but I promise there were sparkles, super pretty ones!!!
After devouring our massive slices of cake we got ready to leave, but not before spotting..
MOREEE peanut butter and jelly goodies!! NOT GIANT PEANUT BUTTER JELLY SCROLLS??? Oh mans they were massive, double the size of my fist. O.O I was thinking to myself, hmm when I get one, would I bite straight into it? Would it even fit in my mouth? Or would I have to cut it? LOL weird food thoughts.
And their donuts looked amazing too..my goodness everything looked so amazing that I vowed I would be back soon. Not that I wouldn't be back for the awesome company anyway :D
Tarts..pastries...strawberries and custard. I'm drooling at the site of these pics, and now officially hungry again.
It was such a fantastic date at Milk Bar and super excited to go back!! Thanks Josh and staff for all your help, you made it all possible! Hope everything went swell that day, and keen to hear all about it next time! :D

Great pants and worth the price We saw a pair in the store but were too big for my daughter we asked the employee if we can order a pair in her size and we did. We ordered both the small and medium and would return the one which did not fit. The pants are made of a thicker material then others additionally the knees and butt areas are padded. I feel the price is worth it over some of the thinner pairs we looked at. August 16, 2014
did not like the fit These were not a great fit for my daughter. were very baggy and not well fitted around the waist. April 23, 2014

Klun to Continue Another Year as
Interim Dean of Professional Studies
(715) 836-4741
(715) 836-2900
MAILED: March 8, 2000
EAU CLAIRE Dr. Carol Klun will continue in her role as interim dean of the College of Professional Studies at the University of Wisconsin-Eau Claire for another year, Chancellor Donald Mash announced today.
The College of Professional Studies Search and Screen Committee, chaired by Dr. William Dunlap, determined that it could not forward names to the Chancellor and Provost for consideration. Dunlap asked that his committee be discharged and a new search committee formed.
"We are fortunate to have a qualified and respected colleague who is willing to continue in her role as interim dean through the 2000-2001 academic year," Mash said of Klun. "We are confident that Dr. Klun's leadership will allow the college to continue to thrive as we search for the very best person to lead it in the future."
Klun, who previously served as associate dean of the School of Human Sciences and Services, was appointed interim dean in May 1999 when Dr. Ronald Satz was appointed Provost and Vice Chancellor. Patricia Christopherson, former chair of the social work department, has assumed Klun's associate dean responsibilities and will continue to do so through the 2000-2001 academic year.
The College of Professional Studies is made up of the School of Human Sciences and Services, the School of Education and the School of Nursing. Satz said he will meet with faculty and academic staff in each of the three schools before a new search committee is elected this spring. During those meetings, he will review the search and screen procedures and lay the groundwork for an aggressive search that will begin in the fall.

Padma Lakshmi Dishes on Top Chef 4, New Bookby Matt Richenthal at . Comments
Padma Lakshmi is a busy lady.
But she recently found time in her schedule to discuss her most recent book, Tangy Tart Hot and Sweet, along with the latest season of Top Chef.
"Yes, we just wrapped [taping for season 4] up last week in Chicago. It went really well and I ate like a pig. Now I'm going to have to exercise," Lakshmi said.
And how did it go?
"It's all amazing. The fact that this show just keeps getting more popular and it's attracting a higher caliber of chefs is what impresses me. And the food is outstanding."
Lakshmi also responded to criticism that she's isn't actually behind all of the content of her books. Setting the record straight, she said:
"You know, I get [questioned about that] all the time, and yes, absolutely, this book is 100 percent me. I wrote every single word and the text for every recipe. It was two years in the making and a labor of love for me. My fingerprints are on every aspect of the book, and it's more of me than anything in my life."
Matt Richenthal is the Editor in Chief of TV Fanatic. Follow him on Twitter and on Google+.Tags: Reality TV
Padma is right, when she said this book is her. nov.11,2007 I was in Novi, Michigan at her book signing, and she read 3 essays. From her cookbook about storys of her life in the past. You could see that this 2nd. book is her, and her life. People could be up close. Have there photos taken with her. And ask her questions, She would sign your cookbook. It was a great time in my life. Tobe able to see, and talk to one of the worlds most Beautiful Ladys on this planet. She looked as good in person as she is on t.v.I believe she did a great job on her cookbook. Padma will be a Superstar, like she is Supermodel. Shes #1 in my book.
Thats interesting, I'd check out Padma's book! Speaking of "top chef" Rocco DiSpirito has a new book out called Rocco's Real Life Recipes. Lots of quick, easy and healthy dishes in there. Rocco is also doing these great video blogs for Bertolli's Mediterranean style frozen dinners (which are also really easy to prepare) you can check out Roccos Bertolli vides at http://www.whatsyourmedstyle.c...
Lots of great dishes and tips from him there!! I have the inside scoop since I work for them, but these are great and a lot of fun!!

Electro Physiology Studies
Electro physiology studies or EP studies can be done as outpatient or inpatient. This type of a study is done in a special lab located in the cardiac catheterization area of the hospital. A special type of cardiologist known as an electrophysiologist performs the studies. The doctors are more simply referred to as "electricians." They study the electrical conduction system of human hearts. During this procedure the physician will study the current electrical pathway of your heart, as well as the likely hood of your heart going into strange, life threatening, rhythms. These pathways send currents from the top smaller pumping chambers (atria) to the bottom larger pumping chambers (ventricles) in a specific wave. When the currents are interrupted due to scar tissue or disease the EP doctor diagnosis the type of therapy you need. These therapies can be medication, ablation or insertion of a pacemaker or implantable cardioverter defibrillator.

Is it a Baby Beaver? A Nano-Norseman? No, the plane that shares
that ruggedly Canadian heritage, stout construction, and
round-engine attitude is a Radial Rebel -- the latest bit of sky
candy from the confectioners at Chilliwack, BC's Murphy Aircraft
Mfg. Ltd.
It's nothing but the proven and popular Murphy Rebel 2-seat bush
plane repowered with the proven and popular Rotec
2800, a 110-hp, seven-cylinder radial engine from
Australia, which is the first commercially successful new radial
engine introduced in over 50 years.
Murphy defines the Rebel as, "A fun flying, two seat STOL
aircraft capable of operating from wheels, floats or skis featuring
all metal construction, pre-formed and pre-punched parts making for
easy, straightforward construction."
Murphy has hinted at such a plane in the past, in response to a
tidal wave of customer interest. The engine that is an
intergenerational blend of 1930s concept and ultramodern CNC
manufacturing has been winning adherents on the North American side
of the Pacific, and Murphy's customers are perfectly in tune with
that ethic of classic visual appeal wedded to modern performance
and reliability.
Indeed, the photos here are from 2004; the bare engine on a bare
fuselage from the springtime (Aero-News file photos) and the
cowled, nearly complete Radial Rebel in front of the mighty Moose
for scale from AirVenture 2004 (Murphy's photos). We begged for a
picture of the complete plane, but they told us that they won't
give up its secret new paint job till AirVenture. Hmmmm... sounds
like a challenge for our News-Spies.
Despite the plane's brute-strength visual appeal, the engine
doesn't alter the Rebel's performance when compared to the usual
Rebel engines, the Lycoming O-235 and the Rotax 912-series. It's in
about the same weight and horsepower class as the O-235. "It's
basically a visual upgrade for classic airplane lovers," designer
Darryl Murphy admits.
If you love the style of the mighty Murphy Moose in it's radial
(360 HP M-14P) configuration, but don't need its staggering
load-carrying ability (or want to deal with its equally prodigious
fuel burn), the Radial Rebel, which looks like a Moose calf or
maybe yearling, is your ticket.
"Now customers can have that 'Moose look' in a smaller,
more-affordable airplane," Murphy said in a company statement.
Like all Murphy bush aircraft, including the new Yukon, the
Radial Rebel is built from riveted sheet aluminum and offered as a
51% compliant kit. Like the O-235 and Rotax powered Rebels, it
should be legal for American pilots to fly on a Sport Pilot license
or using Sport Pilot privileges.
All previous Murphy designs have offered some advantage in
performance, construction, or something, over previous ones. Why
offer a plane which differs only in style from the current
The customers made him do it, Murphy explains. "So many
customers inquired about this engine that I simply had to offer it
as an option. If a builder wants that classic radial look, he will
have a factory-developed design, with the installation and flight
testing proven by the factory."
Some customers had already been retrofitting Rotec R2800s to
Rebels, even as the company was studying the installation. But they
didn't have Darryl Murphy's intimate knowledge of the design,
experience, or talented engineering and R&D staff and
consultants. Like many designers, Darryl Murphy encourages builders
to stick close to the kit instructions for the best chance of
successful completion. "It's no fun as a kit builder, to have to
design a major system," Murphy says. "That's my job."
"Additionally, I'm always concerned that our customers get good
results, and if we design it, we can be confident offering it." If
some builder botches an amateur engine installation, his tale of
woe might be perceived, however unfairly, as reflecting on Murphy
You can see the Radial Rebel, and it's slick new paint job,
Darryl Murphy promises, at Airventure in Oshkosh in -- yikes! --
next month. The company is already handling customer orders for the
Radial Rebel kit.

Check out the new online chapter of Ken Wilber: Thought as Passion :
"Reaching Out to the World: Years of Application and Assessment"
An independent forum for a critical discussion of the integral philosophy of Ken Wilber
Publication dates of essays (month/year) can be found under "Essays".
David Christopher Lane, Ph.D. Professor of Philosophy, Mt. San Antonio College Lecturer in Religious Studies, California State University, Long Beach Author of Exposing Cults: When the Skeptical Mind Confronts the Mystical (New York and London: Garland Publishers, 1994) and The Radhasoami Tradition: A Critical History of Guru Succession (New York and London: Garland Publishers, 1992). For the reviewed book and its author see: www.americanguru.net
Andrew Cohen
Ken Wilber has never fully admitted how mistaken he was about Da Free John and his nefarious actions (lamely back-peddling, albeit slightly, only after the New York born guru was exposed in the national media). It is all too clear that Wilber hasn't a clue about the gurus he associates with or endorses. Or, to put it in a darker light, it seems as if Ken Wilber will chummy up with any guru provided he or she will give him a featured section in their monthly journal.
I have read a large number of books that have exposed modern spiritual leaders and their organizations, including The Bare-Face Messiah (L. Ron Hubbard), Monkey on a Stick (the Hare Krishna movement, Life 102: What To Do When Your Guru Sues You (John-Roger Hinkins), etc. I think that American Guru is a valuable addition to the growing literature devoted to exposing fraudulent gurus.
American Guru is not a mean-spirited book. It is, rather, a refreshingly honest one. I think American Guru should be required reading for all of Andrew Cohen's past and present students. Hopefully, it will be read by every spiritual seeker before they make a choice of becoming a student of this so-called master who cannot even reconcile with his own mother.
I personally think Andrew Cohen is in deep need of long term therapy. The first step in his recovery process should be for him to sit down and read American Guru closely line by line. After doing such, he should apologize first to his mother and then to every student he has ever taken under his wing. Hopefully, he will then refund whatever money he has manipulatively gathered in his name.
I don't think any of this is likely, but I do have confidence that anyone who reads American Guru will be properly forewarned not to buy into any of Andrew Cohen's childish antics.
If you are on the fence about Andrew Cohen and his methods, American Guru will help you get off it and provide you with enough telling detail (and, hopefully, some confidence) to walk away from this spiritual poser. His mother did and so should we all.

Shocking figures reveal the growth in UK's wealth gap
Inequality has risen sharply since the 1990s, according to a report by the Resolution Foundation thinktank
The super-rich – the top 1% of earners – now pocket 10p in every pound of income paid in Britain, while the poorest half of the population take home only 18p of every pound between them, according to a report published this week by the Resolution Foundation thinktank, which reveals the widening gap between those at the very top and the rest of society.
Inequality has grown sharply over the past 15 years, according to Resolution's analysis: the top 1% of earners have seen their slice of the pie increase from 7% in the mid-1990s to 10% today, while the bottom half have seen their share drop from 19% to 18%.
There was a dip in top earnings between 2009-10 and 2010-2011, but Resolution's analysis suggests that may have been because highest-paid employees brought forward earnings to avoid the 50p top tax rate on earnings above £150,000, which Chancellor George Osborne has cut to 45p from this April.
Matthew Whittaker, senior economist at the thinktank, said: "If we take the longer view, we see the very wealthiest have continued to prosper while many others have not.
"The growing gap in incomes is pronounced when you look at the top 10th of households, and overwhelming when you consider the position of the top 1%. The rest of society hasn't kept up. It's the squeezed majority, not just the squeezed middle."
Resolution's calculations do not include the impact of benefits and tax credits, which top up the incomes of the lowest earners, yet show the polarisation in the UK's flexible labour market between top earners' soaraway salaries and stagnant wages for those at the bottom of the pile.
The Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development used its annual health check of the UK economy to warn of the dangers of increasing inequality, saying: "Labour market conditions are widening the income gap between full-time employees and an increasing share of the workforce on part-time, insecure and low-wage jobs. This comes in a context where income inequality was already high and rising before the recession."
Tackling the gap between rich and poor is a growing political issue. The Labour leader, Ed Miliband, has called for a policy of "pre-distribution" to try to narrow the gap between the best and worst paid, while politicians from across the spectrum, including the mayor of London, Boris Johnson, have praised the idea of employers promising to pay the Living Wage, currently £8.55 an hour in London, and £7.45 elsewhere. The deputy prime minister, Nick Clegg, last week revived the idea of a "mansion tax" on homes worth more than £2m, or higher council tax bills for the costliest properties.
In its report, Squeezed Britain 2013, the Resolution Foundation will focus on the fortunes of middle-earners, many of whom have seen their real incomes stagnate over the past decade in the face of high inflation and weak bargaining power in the workplace.

The lessons I learned from my week with Japan's power-brokers | Will Hutton
The new Bank of England governor should heed Japan's efforts in trying to emerge from its lost decade
Most of us, including many bankers, now agree that the last 25 years have been a dreadful mistake. Western consumers and businesses have too much private debt, with Japan serving as an awesome warning of how that can drag an economy down for decades. There is a lot of hand-wringing over why regulation was so light-touch and why bankers were allowed to get away with so much. But those were the mistakes of a bygone world; the big question we face now is what to do next.
Last week, the governor-designate of the Bank of England, Mark Carney, and a man who was once a rival for the job, Adair Turner, both argued with one eye on Japan, where I have just spent an intriguing week, that it is time to open a debate about inflation. At the very least, declared Carney, we need to be very flexible about how inflation targets are met, keeping a weather eye on what is happening to growth and employment.
In a formidable speech, Turner went even further. The unthinkable – printing money to finance government deficits – should no longer be unthinkable, he argued. It should be one available policy tool, a way of countering deflation. In many respects, Britain's situation is even worse than Japan's in 1990 when its lost decades began. Our stock of private debt is much higher proportionally; our banks are in much worse shape; our productivity is disastrously low and falling. What's more, our loss of share of world export markets is the worst in the G20. Incomes per head are set to stagnate for 10 years, the worst in modern times. Our government, unlike the Japanese, is mulishly opposed to increasing public debt to compensate for the private sector trying to reduce its debt.
All that has stood between Britain and a Japanese-scale debacle is that at least the Bank of England has been obliged to keep inflation up rather than watch prices fall and it has been moderately imaginative about how it has done so. Nonetheless, it is crystal clear that it could, and should, have done more.
In Japan, I was simultaneously aware of what a toll two decades of deflation had levied on Japanese society, but also of the compensatory force of Japan's underlying economic strength. But gloom and pessimism still suffuse the country. Hiromasa Yonekura, the president of the Keidanren, Japan's all-powerful employers' association, told me that this lack of confidence, in his view unjustified, had become hard-wired into Japan's culture by falling prices. It affected even the birth rate and was the chief cause of Japan's rapidly ageing society. Nor is the birth rate the only sign of a society in stress. Young women's role in Japanese society is being knocked back by the fashion for coquettishness and cartoon-style prettiness, complete with singsong voices and contrived ways of walking. It is a return to suffocating traditionalism masked as fashionable faddishness. A society worried about its future becomes socially regressive.
Yet Japan's capacity to resist the malign element of deflation is very much greater than our own. It is still the third biggest economy in the world, with some fabulous companies possessing frontier technology, and going global rapidly. Hiroaki Nakanishi, the president of Hitachi, having just bought Horizon Nuclear Power from the Germans and aiming to build nuclear power stations in Britain, was worried that Britain was retreating from our global vocation. Tell your prime minister, he said, that Hitachi would consider it a disaster if Britain withdrew from the EU. I promised him that if the opportunity arose I would.
But Hitachi's commitment to frontier engineering is only one example; others are rail company Japan Central's investment in the Maglev train, which travels at over 300mph, and textile expert Toray's commitment to new carbon materials that are many times stronger than anything known to man. Japan is engaging in investment and innovation across the board and on a scale Britain can only dream of.
Time after time, as I questioned company leaders about their capacity to do this, I was referred to Japan's "public interest" or "stakeholder" capitalism – committed long-term ownership, partnership with the state to drive research forward and corporate leaderships keen to find commercial responses to the giant economic and social problems of our time. It is a world foreign to our own of shareholder value maximisation and gigantic personal bonuses, where interest in social problems is seen as "anti-business". This dynamism refuses to be submerged by debt deflation; Yonekura pointed out that, while New York had built 20 skyscrapers in the last decade, Tokyo had built 50. But to unleash this dynamism, Japan has had to break out of its monetary and financial trap. The newly elected government has gone some of the way, proposing a huge Keynesian stimulus and lifting the inflation target to 2%. But, as Turner argued, Japan's stock of public debt is now even more suffocating than private debt. Japan must go further: turn it from onerous debt into free cash by in effect printing money. Done right, this would not create inflation but steady the economy. There is an intense private battle raging between the Ministry of Finance and the Bank of Japan. Either the bank starts monetising public debt, as Turner argues, or the Ministry of Finance will launch another unthinkable, unilateral reduction of Japan's public debt burden by demanding borrowers accept worse repayment terms. Plans are being laid for a managed default unless the Bank of Japan prints money.
This is what happens when societies face impossible demands. To sustain the social fabric, investment and innovation, governments have to do non-conservative things – reframe their capitalism and break conservative financial rules. Japan is now ready to do this, the Liberal Democrat party feeling that too much is at stake not to act.
Carney and Turner are pointing the way in Britain. But there is a limit to what a central bank can do by itself. What is becoming clearer by the month is that every Tory maxim – leaving the EU, belief in smaller government, a hands-off approach to capitalism, junking the welfare state – is 100% wrong. Britain needs to learn from Japan. We don't need just a radicalisation of monetary policy – we need to recast, from top to bottom, how our companies are owned, financed and managed. Otherwise, we face an economic and social calamity. The final shredding of Toryism before brutal economic truths will signal the rebirth of the British economy.
InflationEconomicsJapanUS economic growth and recessionMark CarneyEconomic policyBankingWill Huttonguardian.co.uk
Carney's exhortations can't revive UK economy on their own
The Bank of England is trying to summon growth. But unless there is a change in fiscal policy, will it come?
David Cameron's problem is that, although he regards himself as the "heir to Blair", he did not have someone of the political courage and clout of Neil Kinnock to detoxify his party before he took over.
The Conservatives, especially under the chancellorship of George Osborne, are coming across as the worst of the old-fashioned, rightwing, bash-the-poor party that the likes of my late "wet" Tory friend Lord Gilmour hoped had been banished for ever.
For those of us Keynesians who think that it is not a sensible policy to cut public spending when the private sector is depressed – thereby adding to the factors inhibiting economic recovery – the present stance of the government is disturbing enough. But many of us, while we find present policies both intellectually offensive and emotionally repellent, do not suffer personally from the effects. Not so the poor and the disabled, who find their benefits being reduced in the name of austerity policies they are told are necessary because of the deficit and the supposed need to pay down the debt.
At a time like this, it is very important not to pay down the debt. It is what keeps us going, preventing an even worse depression. Unfortunately, so desperate is our beleaguered prime minister that he recently committed a classic "terminological inexactitude" by proclaiming in a party political broadcast that the government was paying down the debt when it manifestly was not.
It was perfectly fair, under the rules of love and politics, to complain that the deficit was attributable to the previous government, even though the fact is that it was largely the result of the financial crisis that afflicted most western economies, and only partly due to the specific policies of Gordon Brown. But to claim that public sector debt is falling when it is not is a step too far by a plainly rattled prime minister.
One country that was less affected than most by banking crisis was Canada. This seems to be at least one of the reasons why our chancellor was so keen to recruit its central bank governor, Mark Carney, to succeed Mervyn King at the Bank of England.
Now, regular readers may recall that I was pretty critical before Christmas of the way in which Osborne broke his own rules about the procedure for appointing King's successor. But it has to be said that Carney put up a reasonable performance in front of the Treasury select committee last week.
Given that, in the arcane world of central banking, Carney is considered "box office", I knew that there would be a queue to get into the hearing, but I did not get where I am today by queuing, so I decided to watch it all – or most of it; there are limits – on television. Carney himself took a similar view, and was 25 minutes late for his own hearing.
I say "reasonable" performance, and reasonable was the operative word, frequently used by the urbane committee chairman, Andrew Tyrie, and Carney himself. The other great theme was flexibility. When asked about his putative liking for targeting nominal gross domestic product (the sum of inflation and real growth), Carney gave the impression that he had rowed back from his earlier position, acknowledging there were measurement and operational problems with nominal GDP as a target for monetary policy.
Carney believes it is important that the public should understand what monetary authorities are up to, and it doesn't help if they are not quite sure themselves. However, in understanding his position, it is helpful to know that one thing Carney does emphasise is that, in the UK, nominal GDP is now almost 15% below what previous trends suggest it would have been in the absence of the crisis. In other words, there is ample scope for a major effort at expansionary economic policies in order to lift this beleaguered economy of ours out of depression.
Carney emerges as coming from what that great Canadian political analyst Colin Campbell describes as the school of "mainstream Bernanke". He believes in continuing with a flexible inflation target – that is, an Augustinian approach to financial virtue – and is emphatically worried, like Ben Bernanke, the US Federal Reserve chairman, about the high level of unemployment and the danger that, if unemployment persists for too long, the victims really will live up to the "unemployable" label so favoured by rightwing Neanderthals.
Now, it is all very well the Bank of England trying to stimulate growth. But certain words from Henry IV Part

Are Delta and US Airways in an 'airline brawl?'
Could Delta and US Airways be engaged in a tit-for-tat battle over routes out of New York LaGuardia and Washington National airports? That's the opinion of Brett Snyder, author of The Cranky Flier aviation blog.
His column on the subject comes shortly after each airline announced new flights -- Delta at Washington and US Airways at New York -- following the collapse of a proposed slot transaction between the airlines.
RELATED: US Airways ramps up schedule at LaGuardia
RELATED: Delta expands schedule at Washington National
Noting that "US Airways will be adding a net of 17 new flights a day at capacity-controlled LaGuardia," Snyder wonders "where exactly are these magical slots coming from? According to US Airways, the slots were on a 'short-term lease' that has now ended. Hmm, anyone want to guess to whom those were leased? If your guess isn't Delta, hang your head in shame," Snyder writes.
And, since that slot-swap deal fell through, Delta announced it would expand at Washington National and -- now -- US Airways at LaGuardia. In the fallout, Snyder concludes that in the fallout of the collapsed deal, Delta "took its slots back from US Airways at National and decided to build them up. US Airways ... then took its slots back and decided to throw down in New York as well."
Snyder says: "Nothing says summer fun like an airline brawl, right?"
Check out Snyder's Cranky Flier column on the subject for of his take on the possible Delta-US Airways spat.

Associated Press
ANNAPOLIS, Md. (AP) -- The Maryland Senate has passed a measure to help develop offshore wind.
The Senate voted 30-15 for the bill on Friday.
The measure has been a priority of Gov. Martin O'Malley, who pushed unsuccessfully for the bill in the last two years.
O'Malley has conceded that challenges clearly remain to get the project developed off the coast of Ocean City. Still, he has expressed confident the measure will put Maryland on the right track to lead a partnership with neighboring states to lead offshore wind development off the East Coast.
Critics have cited the expense of such a project. But supporters say ratepayers will only pay for electricity once it is generated and won't have to invest in infrastructure.

In a recent article for Publisher's Weekly, Wired Magazine editor-in-chief and author of the new bestseller The Long Tail Chris Anderson writes: "Another transformative technology is print-on-demand. The costs of obtaining the rights and reformatting books to make them available are still too high for many older niche titles, but the technology is at the core of the booming self-publishing industry. Just as in music and, increasingly, video, the tools of production are being democratized."
For those not familiar with The Long Tail's premise, Anderson sums it up succinctly on his blog: "The theory of the Long Tail is that our culture and economy is increasingly shifting away from a focus on a relatively small number of 'hits' (mainstream products and markets) at the head of the demand curve and toward a huge number of niches in the tail. As the costs of production and distribution fall, especially online, there is now less need to lump products and consumers into one-size-fits-all containers."
It's a notion that we here at Blurb heartily embrace. It's our belief that books with an audience of dozens (or even just one) are just as deserving of being professionally printed and sold as those with an audience of millions, and we're happy to be providing ordinary people with the tools to do just that. Go tail!

Although Sebastian Vettel says it was a "small failure" that sidelined him in practice, he concedes it will have "big consequences" for his weekend.
Vettel's latest title defence has not gone according to plan as the German and his Red Bull team have been blighted by various reliability issues and a lack of pace.
As such he arrived at the Circuit de Barcelona-Catalunya for this weekend's grand prix with a new chassis and renewed hope.
It came to naught on Friday.
Just four laps into his running the reigning World Champion's RB10 broke down at Turn 5.
Red Bull confirmed that it was an "electrical problem" that "damaged the wiring loom" forcing the car to stop out track.
It also meant the 26-year-old could not contest the afternoon session, limiting him to just four laps for the day.
"We had a simple failure in one of the looms this morning, which caused a short and meant the car stopped," Vettel explained.
"We had to change the chassis loom, which is a big job so I wasn't able to go out this afternoon.
"It's a small failure, but a big consequence; there was nothing new on that part of the car, it was something new that happened in that area.
"Luckily it happened today (rather than tomorrow), but unfortunately we lost the chance to prepare for Sunday with two cars, so I have to rely on what Daniel did today and get into the rhythm straight away tomorrow."
Daniel Ricciardo finished the day third quickest, 0.985s behind the pace-setting Lewis Hamilton.
