Cooking Up A Delicious and Healthy New Year
By Janet Tharpe
I recently read an editorial piece written by a gentleman who was adamant that moderation is the key to happiness. While at first it seemed like a whopper of a contradiction, I thought about it some more and really like the notion. In this new year, why cut things out? Why deprive ourselves? Why not instead balance ourselves by evening out what we do... and what we eat? There are too many wonderful foods on this planet to eat just a few of 'em. I've been carrying the idea close to my heart and there are a TON of terrific cooks in this Club who are offering up delicious recipes perfectly suited to a balanced diet. (Starvation diets, be gone!)
Ms. Angie Webb is a perfect example of a cook who is balancing tradition and healthfulness in her cooking. Her Mamma Ang's Cavatini has earned this Centennial, CO gal a soft spot in the collective heart of the Kitchen Crew. "My mother used to make Cavatini for me on special occasions," explains Angie. "Unfortunately, I never got her recipe. So, I came up with the closest I could find and added some lower fat options since I try to make healthy food for my family." By substituting whole wheat pastas, lower-fat cheeses and turkey in place of more traditional (and fatty) ingredients, Angie is helping her family stay healthy while at the same time making them happy. "My kids LOVE it," she says. "[They] had seconds AND thirds!" All I can say is thank goodness this recipe makes enough for a crowd... because we just can't get enough.
A great pairing with Ang's Cavatini is the Grilled Vegetables with Goat Cheese and Balsamic Glaze recipe from Denise Lepard. This delightful, nutritious dish also spans the generations. "My mom and grandmother would make this when they had leftover veggies," says Diane. "I've seen this done on so many cooking shows and have made it so often. It never really makes it to the dinner table!" The key to this scrummy recipe is the slow-roasting (or grilling) of the veggies coupled with the syrupy tang of the balsamic vinegar. Beyond that, feel free to mix up the ingredients to suit what you have on hand. "You can swap out the goat cheese for any cheese you prefer, and use any vegetables you like," says Diane, who also suggests serving the veggies with crunchy Italian bread or pita chips. The versatility of this recipe is just as divine as its flavor.
Soups are another great way to lighten the load while still keeping a happy tummy. And by making recipes like soup from scratch, you can more easily moderate the amount of salt and such that you're eating.
Diane Eldridge of Chattanooga, TN knocked our socks off with her recipe for Homemade Cream of Tomato Soup. While we love the canned stuff too, it was a fun change of pace to whip up our very own tomato soup from start to finish. Diane came up with this warm hug of a recipe while looking for a way to heat things up on a cold day. What makes it so good? Well, in part it's its simplicity. By combining chopped tomatoes and 1% milk with aromatic herbs, Diane has captured the soulfulness of classic tomato soup while moderating all the guilt-inducing ingredients. Love!
The only way to make Diane's magnificent moderation even more tasty is by pairing her soup with a savory Grilled Chicken Sandwich from Portland's Lauren Mitchell! Lauren keeps things light by using boneless, skinless chicken breasts sprinkled with taco seasoning. Grill them to perfection, then top with her ought-to-be-world-famous Cilantro Lime Mayo. "This was a spur of the moment idea that turned out great, super fast and healthy," says Lauren, who makes sure to use light mayo when whipping up her sandwiches. Add avocado, tomato and red onion for a delicious and nutritious lunch.
Who knew that balanced eating could be so delicious? That article I read was right: balancing the stress in our lives and what we give our bodies is truly key. And while it may take some time to get there, each baby step can make a heck of a difference. I'm starting small and working my way up... without sacrificing the richness of occasional indulgences as I go. In fact, I can't wait for the moment when the only thing I have to worry about balancing in life is the plate of cookies on my lap.

Your article could not be more right on Janet. People are so quick to cut the pleasures, they forget it is how much you are eating more as well as what you are eating. Other than for medical reasons, you actually hurt your chances for long term results when you restrict yourself too much. I am also of the opinion that if people would eat rounded diets there would be no need for multi vitamins. Tho ones that are most compatable to our bodies are in our food.
Catherine Zaring Cookiez54 - Jan 3, 2012
I learned this lesson over 2 years ago when I was diagnosed as a Type 2 diabetic. Looked at the boring meals that the dietitian gave me, did some research and decided that I could still enjoy food as long as I balanced my foods properly and used portion control, i.e. divided plate method. It has worked for me...I have lost over 30 pounds and am now considered "pre-diabetic". If this carb queen can do it anyone can! :)
Carol Harpel Kitzer - Jan 3, 2012
Catherine - Congratulations!! I'm glad your brain took over!!
anne muzzy muzzy460 - Jan 4, 2012
Can't wait to try the tomato soup. I've been having problems with my blood pressure so will have to use mrs. dash instead of the season salt but I think it will work. I also agree that moderation is key!!
Colleen Sowa colleenlucky7 - Jan 4, 2012
Congratulations everyone!!! Diane... I especially congratulate you my friend! xo


text: Well I know there has been some talk here and there about dank and the comics on the site. Just thought I'd start a post devoted to the caveman inventor. There hasn't been much of an update in the past couple of weeks. I for one would like to see a semi daily dank. I still find the comic pretty hit and miss with humor but if they kept going with it I'm sure it'd get better. ( I almost gave up on it until I saw the comic with the bird) Also I don't think that is going to be the only comic either so hopefully we see some of the others soon too. So yeah I think it would be great if people posted some of their comments or suggestions for our caveman inventor

The face-tracking technology called SOEMote was confirmed to be headed to Everquest Next, said game director Dave Georgeson. The tech was unveiled at E3 last year and is currently available to the public for free in Everquest II -- all you need is a webcam and you're good to go. Though still a little rough around the edges, it shows promise of what the future of what personal virtual interactions could be like. Cutting to the chase, I'm surprised the porn industry didn't beat them to it. That's where all technology comes from, so I'm told.
Everquest Next will also feature less fumbling with your keyboard when moving across environment through some automatic parkour wizardry. In the video shown above you'll notice that when the characters confront small boulders they simply swings around it with liquidity. No button pressing is needed to perform these actions, which they're calling "Heroic Movements". When combined with double-jumping and magical items (like gliding boots) the tedium of moving across a field begins to sounds like less of a chore.
SOE Live wraps later tonight, so we'll continue to prod the developers for more details. Is there anything you've seen you're curious about? Let me know and I'll try to corner someone!view full story + comments
Matt Higby doesn't know what the future of his game may hold, and he's frankly OK with that. We prodded him with questions about Player Studio, the new marketplace we've blogged about before where gamers can upload and sell their own creations (similar to Valve's strategy).
Mr. Higby wants more of it in there: "People are doing a great job on camos, but there are almost no decals -- which is shocking despite being the easiest to create." You can make some real world loot by submitting helmets, decals, camo patterns, cockpit decals, hood ornaments. "Eventually, you'll also be able to submit vehicle cosmetics and even weapons," he added.
When we asked him what the company does with ugly submissions he smiled and admitted that "Some stuff frankly sucks, but the community is great about telling people (in the forums) about what's good and not good. We can't let everything through, but some really great stuff has come in."

In a move nobody could have predicted, Sony Online Entertainment is showcasing not one but two new EverQuest properties today: EverQuest Next and EverQuest Next Landmark -- and the latter may be arriving as early as this winter.
EverQuest Next is a re-imagining of the original 1999 classic, while Landmark is essentially a free-to-play sandbox with rich voxel modeling tools that will usher some of the community's penis-free creations into the future world of EverQuest Next.
Crafting and digging deep into the earth's crust only scratch the surface of what's new. The new games are a radical departure in three other ways: multi-classed characters can mix and match abilities, there's an "Emergent AI" that does not rely on static spawn points, and permanent changes to the world are dictated by the outcomes of wars. These four pillars prop up what, if my eyes don't deceive me, is an otherwise gorgeous-looking next-gen game that absolutely deserves all the whispers and hype since its E3 stealth debut.

A clean and good hotel with Courtyard standarts. It was not that far from San Francisco. 35 min with car from Union Square.
Breakfast was not included and the internet was useless
Downstairs restaurant
Our rooms were very clean and we didn't have any complain while we were there. The Wi-fi wasn't excellent but works.
The staff was great. Particularly Jorge that treated us at the front desk. All of the Taft was great. Very clean and comfortable room. Great location with a Chevys in walking distance walmart a cross the intersection and right off the freeway.
The breakfast at the hotels cafe/dinning area looks very nice and the staff was GREAT but the food is very overpriced for the quality of food. I spent $13 for scrambled eggs with freezer potatoes and freezer sausage that was not good at all. This was my only negative. Otherwise a great stay. I would stay again and recomend to others but would not by breakfast at the hotel.
The staff was excellent!
The staff was very friendly and helpful. The breakfast was outstanding. The common areas were comfortable and attractive.
The towels were thin. The mattress was somewhat hard. The bathroom did not have a vent.
The staff was wonderful!!!! Wendy went out of her way to help us out while we were there for Cal Day. The ladies in the restaurant were just sweet and polite.
We stayed Thursday night, checking out on sunday and all I can say is that at least we got 1 good night sleep, which was Thursday. Friday, there was someone cursing up a storm at the top of this lungs and would not sUP. I called the main desk twice, they did send security but after he left, he started again, by the time the guy finally gave up or passed out, it was 4:30am and i had to get ready for the day. Saturday, was the same thing, people on the floor having a party til 2 AM, called front desk and they sent security but once he left, the party started all over again. I also suggested to the front desk that they should really place a privacy panel to seperate the "bathroom sink" area from the sleeping quarters as to night have to wake those sleeping if you have to turn on the lights to use the sink in the morning to get ready.
No AAA discount!!!! Check-in wait time was excessively long because of only one check-in staff available; I waited in line with 7 people ahead of me!!!!!
Everyone was so friendly! My room was beautiful and perfectly clean. When my TV had a problem, it was fixed within five minutes! Location was really close to my meeting.
Hey Marriott, why no free breakfast? I thought everyone had a free breakfast bar! No HGTV, either, just golf channel!
Staff was very attentive and professional Good value
Nothing really.
Lovely! Staff was so friendly! Beautiful contemporary room, lots of parking, and such a nice view for such a low price!
Great room with balcony - clean and comfortable beds. Staff was accommodating and friendly.
Too expensive for the location.

'Zatoichi and the Chest of Gold' Synopsis
In the 1840s, Ichi, blind masseur and quick-draw swordsman, travels to the village of Itakura to pay his respects at the grave of Kichizo, a man he killed two years' ago. The villages in the area, after several years of famine, have struggled to raise 1,000 ryo in taxes they owe. The money is stolen while in transit to the governor. Ichi is accused as is Boss Chuji, a samurai Ichi respects. Ichi sets out to find the money and clear his own and Chuji's names. Along the way, he must face Kichizo's sister, some of Chuji's own gang, a corrupt governor, and his henchmen. Loyalties shift even as Ichi's moral compass stays true.

Q: I saw the "Dateline NBC" news story on Internet predators and I am sufficiently concerned about the Internet in my house. What can I do to protect my children? — Janice
A: For any parent who did not see the "Dateline NBC" program "To Catch A Predator III," I would highly recommend a visit to the MSNBC Web site (http:// msnbc.msn.com) to watch the posted videos on the most recent roundup of Internet predators.
During a three-day period, 51 individuals showed up at a home in Riverside, Calif. expecting to have a sexual encounter with a 12- or 13-year-old child who was supposedly home alone. The transcripts for every encounter showed that the predators clearly knew that they were communicating with a young child, or so they thought.
I am often approached by parents who believe they don't stand a chance of controlling a technology their children grasp much better than they do. They are looking for a quick software download to become the babysitter, but software filters are only part of the solution and they can be compromised.
The bottom line for any parent in the Internet age is that you must take the time to educate yourself about this technology or not allow it in your home. In the real world you would not allow a 40-yearold stranger to walk right into your house and right into your child's room, but millions of parents are allowing this to happen in the virtual world every day.
The single biggest mistake made by parents is placing an Internet-connected computer in a child's room where they can lock the door and wander off into any part of the Internet without any limits or supervision. A common mistake that many kids make (especially younger ones) is that they post too much personally identifiable information on their online profiles or, worse, post alluring pictures of themselves. Predators use any information they can to manipulate children into thinking that they can be trusted.
Instant messaging and social networking Web sites like MySpace.com are targetrich environments for sexual predators. By posing as another teen or a slightly older person, they attempt to develop a relationship with the expressed purpose of manipulating them into a sexual encounter. This does not mean that all instant messaging and online "buddies" are predators, but a recent Pew study suggests that 89 percent of solicitations occur in chat rooms and instant messages.
Educating yourself and getting involved with your child's online activities is the best advice that I can give, and starting them off early with keen awareness of the dangers is key. We have posted a free Safe Surfing Guide for parents (www.datadoctors.com/parents) that covers issues like warning signs that your child may be having a problem with the Internet, common mistakes parents make, a family contract for Internet use and an Internet glossary with common chat lingo.

The military needs both honor and accountability.
President Barack Obama bestows the Medal of Honor on retired Staff Sgt. Clinton Romesha for conspicuous gallantry, Monday, Feb. 11, 2013, in the East Room of the White House in Washington.
Photo: Pablo Martinez Monsivais, Associated Press - Ap
I read with pride and sorrow the article regarding the award of the Medal of Honor to Staff Sgt. Clinton Romesha ("Valor tinged by grief for fallen," Feb. 12). He and his teammates were true heroes in defending Combat Outpost Keating in Afghanistan.
But there was no mention of what happened to the incompetent officers who authorized and set up this indefensible base that cost eight U.S. soldiers their lives and got another 22 soldiers wounded. It would be good to know that, while we recognize and award bravery, our military also deals with incompetence that causes unnecessary casualties.

Joe is honored to have the endorsement of the following newspapers from around Colorado:
"Colorado's secretary of state should push for voter roll integrity yet maintain ballot access. And this elected member of the executive branch should do so without any partisan funny business.
With this in mind, we recommend voters choose Joe Neguse for Colorado secretary of state.
Neguse, a Democrat, is a sharp, public service-minded individual with an impressive record of achievement in many facets of his life." – The Denver Post
"When it comes to elections, there seem to be two philosophies. One would put hurdles in voters' way in the name of preventing fraud. The other would make voting easier, more convenient and open. The name for that is democracy. Joe Neguse is in the second camp. His priorities are exactly what is needed in the office of secretary of state." – The Durango Herald
"We were impressed with Neguse's commitment to making voting as easy as possible. As a first-generation American and the son of east African immigrants, he says the cornerstone of freedom "begins with the right to vote and the ability to participate in democracy." – The Grand Junction Daily Sentinel
"Neguse is a smart, capable political neophyte that doesn't sound much like a traditional Democrat or a Republican. That's exactly what this vital office needs to heal problems from the last four years." – The Aurora Sentinel

Work has begun at the federal level to develop a nationwide dedicated, reliable network, which will provide advanced data communications capabilities to police officers, firefighters and other emergency personnel. The First Responder Network Authority (FirstNet) will enable public safety personnel to make cellular-quality calls and send data, video, images and text—similar to the capabilities offered on commercial networks. Incident commanders and local officials will have priority access and control over the network. Interoperability issues that result from stovepiped local systems, geographic limitations and other regional constraints also will be resolved.
The FirstNet program, which operates under an independent authority within the National Telecommunications and Information Administration (NTIA), has issued an initial set of requests for information (RFIs) and has received more than 270 responses from industry so far. "We are looking for great expertise from vendors," emphasizes T.J. Kennedy, deputy general manager, FirstNet, NTIA, Department of Commerce. A second set of RFIs will be issued after the existing input is reviewed, but no time frame has been set, he adds.
Currently, the organization's efforts are task focused. The goal is first to develop a strong outreach team and then bring in the right technology and people working in an atmosphere that will drive innovation into public safety, Kennedy reports. Then the group will transition its efforts to a building focus.
Eight emerging cybersecurity technologies ready for transition into commercial products will be unveiled at the Mayflower Renaissance Hotel on October 9. The U.S. Department of Homeland Security (DHS) Science and Technology Directorate is hosting the event, which will feature intrusion detection, removable media protection, software assurance and malware forensics capabilities.
The Department of Energy's national laboratories developed the technologies that the DHS' Transition-to-Practice program will showcase during the Technology Demonstration for Investors, Integrators and IT Companies East event.
Cybersecurity professionals and technology investors from private industry will learn about these new technologies through presentations, demonstrations and discussions with the research teams that produced them. Attendees also will have an opportunity to schedule a private one-on-one discussions with the researchers to discuss opportunities for commercializing the technologies and areas of interest to drive further cybersecurity research.
Attendance is free, but registration must be received by October 7.
The FBI is on schedule to finish implementing next-generation biometric capabilities, including palm, iris and face recognition, in the summer of next year. New technology processes data more rapidly, provides more accurate information and improves criminal identification and crime-solving abilities.
Domestic security officials aim to replace human divers with an autonomous underwater vehicle whose design is derived from nature: the tuna, one of the fastest and most maneuverable fish in the sea. The vehicle would be used primarily to inspect ship hulls for contraband, saving divers from hazardous trips into hard-to-reach areas below the waterline where oil and other toxic chemicals are part of the mix. Designers also envision the tuna-modeled robot could also be used for search and rescue missions.
The Biomimetic In-Oil Swimmer (BIOSwimmer) is an autonomous underwater vehicle (AUV) being developed by Boston Engineering Corporation's Advanced Systems Group, in Waltham, Massachusetts, for the U.S. Department of Homeland Security (DHS). This tuna look-alike can be operated either by remote control with a tethered cable or pre-programmed to operate autonomously, according to David Taylor, specialist, cargo security, Border and Maritime Security Division, Science and Technology Directorate, DHS, and program manager for the BIOSwimmer program.
"It was originally designed as a vehicle that could go inside cargo tanks and look in oil cargos for contraband," he explains. Based on subsequent feedback from DHS Customs and Border Protection (CBP) field officers, the BIOSwimmer's design has been modified to function primarily as an AUV that examines ship hulls.
Researchers at one of the premier national laboratories in the United States are prepared to hand the Defense Department a prototype system that compresses imagery without losing the quality of vital data. The system reduces the volume of information; allows imagery to be transmitted long distances, even across faulty communications links; and allows the data to be analyzed more efficiently and effectively.
The Persistics computational system developed at Lawrence Livermore National Laboratories (LLNL) derives its name from the combination of two words: persistent surveillance. The system is designed to revolutionize the collection, communication and analysis of intelligence, surveillance and reconnaissance (ISR) data so that warfighters do not find themselves drowning in a swamp of too much information. The ground-based system has demonstrated 1,000 times compression of raw wide-area video collections from manned and unmanned aircraft and a tenfold reduction of pre-processed images. Standard video compression can achieve only a 30 times data reduction.
The existing data processing infrastructure for national security is not designed for the amounts of information being generated by unmanned aerial systems and other platforms. In addition, the communication bandwidth supporting data transmission for air to ground and the archive storage capability are too slow to support fast-turnaround human analysis, according to LLNL researchers. "These [ISR] cameras are picking up more data than we know what to do with, and there are not enough humans on the ground to analyze every pixel," explains Sheila Vaidya, deputy program director, defense programs, Office of Strategic Outcomes, LLNL.
Industry officials foresee
changes in network security.
Cyber industry experts predict a number of coming developments in the cyber realm, driven in part by government strategy and funding uncertainties. The future may include a greater reliance on law enforcement to solve state-sponsored hacks, increased automation and more outsourcing.
Earlier this year, the White House released the Administration's Strategy on Mitigating the Theft of U.S. Trade Secrets. It calls for an increase in diplomatic engagement; makes investigation and prosecution of trade secret thievery a top priority; and promises a review of legislation regarding trade secret theft to determine what changes may be necessary. The strategy contains "lots of hints" the administration will rely on law enforcement in addition to national security channels in some cases involving nation-state-sponsored hacks, says Kimberly Peretti, a former senior litigator for the Justice Department Computer Crime and Intellectual Property Section.
"The big gorilla in the room is what we do with state-sponsored attacks. One of the priorities of the strategy itself is having the Justice Department continue to make investigations and prosecutions of trade secrets a priority. So, if we see a lot of these trade secret thefts happening by Chinese hackers or state-sponsored attackers, that could be incorporated into the strategy—to start looking at pursuing avenues criminally as well as on the national security side," says Peretti, who is now a partner in the White Collar Group and co-chair of the Security Incident Management and Response Team, Alston and Bird Limited Liability Partnership, a law firm headquartered in Atlanta.
The United States is one of the best in the world at protecting civil liberties, Gen. Keith Alexander, USA, director of National Security Agency (NSA) and commander of the U.S. Cyber Command said at the AFCEA Cyber Symposium in Baltimore.
Edward Snowden, the NSA contractor who leaked reams of data about NSA monitoring activities to the press, has been called a hero whistleblower by some, but Gen. Alexander contends that the employees at the NSA, FBI, CIA and Defense Department, who protect the nation while protecting civil liberties, are the real heroes.
As he has before, Gen. Alexander said the leaks have done irreparable harm to national security. "Public discussion of the NSA's trade craft or the tools that support its operation provides insights that our adversaries—to include terrorists—can and do use to hide their activities. Those who wish us harm now know how we counter their actions. These leaks have caused significant and irreversible damage to our nation's security. Historically, every time a capability is revealed, we lose our ability to track those targets," he said. "What is going on with these leaks is unconscionable in my opinion."
Gen. Alexander pointed out that approved processes exist for whistleblowers to express concern, and he pointed out that Snowden leaked information to the press rather than following those approved processes. "There are lawful and legitimate mechanisms to raise concerns about these programs. The NSA, the Defense Department and the director of national intelligence all have investigator generals who are in a position to do this. An individual acting nobly would have chosen one of those to voice his concerns," he declared.
He also repeated claims that the monitoring programs have helped protect the United States and its allies on 54 occasions. He added that a recent oversight report found zero instances where the monitoring programs led to civil liberty violations.
U.S. government officials are traveling the country warning companies about a new round of cyberattacks that have targeted 27 companies, compromised seven and may ultimately affect up to 600 asset owners, according to Neil Hershfield, deputy director, control systems security program (CSSP), Industrial Control Systems-Cyber Emergency Response Team (ICS-CERT), Homeland Security Department.
Hershfield made the comments while taking part in a critical infrastructure protection panel discussion as part of the July 25-27 AFCEA International Cyber Symposium, Baltimore.
"The reason we're out and about across the country is that we're seeing a new adversary taking a new approach—rather than spearphishing, they are going after vulnerabilities with [structured query language] injections, and they're then trying to get across the networks as fast as they can as broadly as they can," Hershfeld reported. "We've been working with our intelligence community partners on this and we're now going around the country letting people know about it. We basically do this jointly with the FBI, with field offices across the country. When we're done, we'll probably talk to 500-600 asset owners."
Getting the word out is crucial because "the mitigation strategy here for this kind of exploit is significantly different than what you might use in other cases," he added.
Hershfield is part of an industrial control systems working group, a public-private partnership that is co-led by one person from the private sector and another from the government sector. The group typically meets in-person twice a year, sharing information between the public and private sectors.
In the midst of a raging controversy over widespread National Security Agency (NSA) monitoring, the head of the NSA and U.S. Cyber Command defends cyber surveillance efforts and calls for greater consolidation of cyber activities among diverse organizations.
Up until now, elected officials, in consultation with military and intelligence experts, have made strategic national decisions about the role of the United States in global security. But the current congressional budgeting approach is turning this procedure on its head: military leaders will tell the elected what they can accomplish with the appropriated resources.

To produce a product that gives you a 1/1 in every box at a decent price is astounding – especially something that is truly unique – not just a different background color or foil. It's something that the sports market has never truly embraced and it's a shame. Posted March 13, 2013 at 5:50 pm | Permalink

A very unflattering and disturbing description of what happens behind the scenes at the Whitehouse. A must read/listen during this very important time in history and the election process.
I'm a Grisham fan, but this latest work was very disappointing. Lacked his normal punch and listening was more of a grind, just to get it done. Story line was more than a little far fetched in my opinion. Narration was slow, halting, and detracted from the story. Don't waste your time.
"Fascinating Story"
Erik Larson is the next David McCullough! Loved The Devil in The White City and Isaac's Storm did not disappoint. I was vaguely familiar with the Galveston Hurricane and this book makes me want to read more about it. A thoroughly entertaining and informative listen. Highly recommend it. Thunderstruck is next on my list.
"A Must Listen During These Troubled Times"
Just finished this book today and it is a must listen during these troubled economic times. The author provides an excellent review of the major New Deal legislation, policies, and players and the effect that these had on the nation's economy. Definitely worth listening to; I'm going to get the print version!

Working out isn't always the easiest thing for someone to do, even for those who try to convince themselves that they need to do it.

With that in mind, they want to help you get in shape, without throwing it in your face. Instead, they'll wrap it on your wrist. This new watch from Nike, called the Nike+ SportsWatch, is integrated with GPS, and will track your work out to help you out if you're not doing too well.

As UN Council Weighs US Invasion of Haiti, All Eyes on the Junta
THE Clinton administration may well win endorsement from the United Nations this week for a US-led invasion to oust Haiti's illegal rulers.
The debate then would shift to whether such added UN clout would finally persuade Haiti's military leaders to resign or if only full-scale invasion could restore democratic rule to Haiti. For now, it is anyone's guess.
``If the Security Council adopts the US resolution, that would make [invasion] legal under international law ... and I'll bet the US would invade,'' says Anthony Clark Arend, a UN expert at Georgetown University in Washington. (US views on invasion, Page 4.)
Thomas Carothers, an international lawyer with the Carnegie Endowment for International Peace, says UN authorization would be a major boost diplomatically and legally for the United States. Still, he doubts the UN blessing would boost lackluster US domestic political support. ``That's what has really stopped an invasion, not lack of legal authorization,'' he says.
People such as Rep. Bill Richardson (D) of New Mexico are still pressing for a diplomatic solution. He met with Haiti's military commander Lt. Gen. Raoul Cedras last week and said the general definitely ``feels the heat'' of US pressure.
The US hopes to gain Council authorization for an invasion by the end of this week, US officials say. US Ambassador to the UN Madeleine Albright says there is ``remarkable unanimity'' on Haiti in the Council. ``I think everybody understands the necessity for moving on this,'' she has said.
The UN has made several efforts to resolve the impasse in Haiti. UN officials helped broker the now-collapsed Governors Island Accord aimed at returning Haiti's elected President Jean-Bertrand Aristide to power. The Council recently toughened sanctions on Haiti and condemned the regime's ``defiant'' July 11 move to oust about 100 human-rights monitors of UN and Organization of American States (OAS).

Paris Hilton Isn't the Best Record-Keeper
How does Paris Hilton keep track of all of her various comings and goings?
Pretty much the same way that everyone else finds out about her activities—she Googles herself, according to Us Magazine.
Hilton—who's currently being sued for $8 million for allegedly failing to promote her comedy Pledge This!—testified in a pre-trial hearing in Miami on Thursday that she doesn't keep a diary for her business meetings.
If the 28-year-old heiress—who further testified that she makes about $11 million a year—needs to remind herself of what she's been up to, "I just press my name and Google it and see."
Likewise, Hilton's not too fastidious with her phone records, either. Pressed by lawyers about phone calls with producers, she declared, "With my phone I never know, because I lose it all the time. I probably get a new cellphone, like, every two weeks." When presented with a copy of her cell-phone bill, Hilton replied, "I've never seen a phone bill of mine in my life."
But sloppy record-keeping aside, Hilton assured that she had met her obligations in publicizing the 2006 film. "Any chance I got, any red carpet, any press, if I was doing something for another product...I would just bring it up, 'Oh, my new sorority film, it's going to be sexy, it's going to be really hot girls,'" Hilton noted. "Like, I really, you know, did my best."
And that's all that anyone can ask of you, dear.
Also, here are some photos of Paris vacationing yet again with her current boyfriend, Doug Reinhardt, on a secret island location, that she posted on her Twitter feed. Just in case she needs to Google herself later on to remind herself what she's doing.

Environmental groups are working to designate 22 miles of the Mad River in Clark County as recreational space. The process is being delayed due to controversy as to what that label will mean for residents.It's a win-win situation for Clark County according to Aaron Rourke, he's with the group Rivers Unlimited, that's working with the Ohio Department of Natural Resources to designate the area as recreation.That means the state agency will manage that portion of the river which Rourke says is a good thing because it will improve the landscape.

Oprah Winfrey Interviews Benh Zeitlin on 'Super Soul Sunday' : The well-documented "Oprah Effect" has been a huge boon to books and products that have been mentioned on Winfrey's talk show in the past. While "Beasts of the Southern Wild" has already garned over $8 million at the box office, this is potentially major exposure to new audiences for a debut film with a cast primarily made up of first-time actors. Also, it's adorable to watch Zeitlin struggle to receive Winfrey's enthusiastic praise in the exclusive clip below: "Benh, I actually love you so much for this."
