Regional MPs push for local television

Regional MPs have raised concerns about moves by the Gillard government to dump so-called reach rules for television broadcasters unless they provide guarantees about local news content.
The existing reach rules prevent a merger of a metropolitan free-to-air television network with a regional broadcaster, posing a roadblock to a potential merger between Nine Entertainment Co and Southern Cross Austereo.
The removal of reach rules, along with changes to licence fee rebates and Australian content rules, were announced by Communications Minister Stephen Conroy in December. They are not expected to form part of more contentious media reforms, including a public interest test, a new press council and rules that could curb the sharing of content among media companies Senator Conroy is hoping to put to cabinet this week. These changes may not be endorsed by his colleagues, who question the wisdom of introducing, in an election year, rules opposed by Rupert Murdoch's News Limited.
Senator Conroy is keen to introduce ownership rules that would prevent News Ltd from acquiring more media assets through a measure that prevents one company from owning more than two out of four types of media (pay-TV, free-to-air TV, radio and newspapers) in a single market.
The appointment of former News Corp executive Hamish McLennan as the new chief executive of Ten Network Holdings and the potential Nine merger with Southern Cross have thrown the spotlight on media ownership.
MPs warn of resistance to changes
In a sign that the changes to reach rules could face scrutiny from regional MPs through Parliament, Nationals senator Barnaby Joyce and independent MP Tony Windsor said any changes resulting in regional viewers losing services could face resistance. Senator Conroy is expected to force broadcasters to maintain regional news operations similar to rules introduced when radio ownership laws were deregulated.
Nine Entertainment and Southern Cross are understood to have had preliminary discussions about a merger if the reach rules are scrapped. The combined business would cover metropolitan radio – through Austereo's Today and Triple M network – regional TV, digital, ticketing and metro TV on the east coast of Australia, with combined annual operating earnings of about $460 million.
The catalyst for the deal is the expiry of affiliation deals between Nine and WIN Corporation as well as Ten and Southern Cross. Nine boss David Gyngell would not comment on any discussions but told The Australian Financial Review: "Nine is committed to getting full value for its content".
A spokesman for opposition communications spokesman Malcolm Turnbull declined to comment on the issue, saying he would first consult with the party room and await details of the government's proposal.
Senator Joyce said: "The best way to think about it is this – would the people of Melbourne like all their news pumped out of Sydney? And if the answer is 'no', well guess what, the people in St George, or Tamworth or Wagga, they don't want their news pumped out of Sydney either."
Nine expected to hold up NSW network
Mr Windsor, who represents the seat of New England in northern NSW, said while he needed to do more homework on the issue, it had the potential to hurt regional consumers.
"If it does become a significant regional issue, it may well struggle ... if people see it as a net loss to their services," Mr Windsor said, adding that the ABC had led the way in providing genuine content for country audiences as "opposed to the make-believe dummy stuff" of other media outlets claiming to provide localism.
"I guess there's a key word in all of this, it's localism," he said.
Nine is likely to hold up its NSW regional network, NBN Television as an example of a successful regional network. NBN broadcasts one hour of mostly local news to 1.9 million people from the NSW central coast to the Queensland border and west to Moree and Narrabri.
It is believed NSW independent MP Rob Oakeshott, whose electorate of Lyne is partly covered by NBN, does not oppose the scrapping of reach rules.
Mr Windsor said he could see Senator Conroy's motivation in attempting to modernise media legislation. "That will help some people, and may well hurt others," he said. "They'd want to see what the benefits are."
Mr Joyce said any pledges by media companies to spend more money on regional news broadcasts would need to be measured against their actions.
"Promises in regional Australia don't really mean much. It's how it actually looks in fact: have you got an office in a regional area? Have you got reporters in a regional area?"
National Party watching changes
"Some have said; 'don't worry, we'll look after you from Sydney'. Well, that won't work for us."
Senator Joyce foreshadowed the Nationals would be watching closely to see how the changes would affect people.
"We all know, (media companies) want to do one thing; they want to have one news room that supplies across all mastheads and all areas.
"It's best personified by the weather maps. They don't even show not only your town, but any of the towns near you."
Greens communications spokesman Scott Ludlam said he was, in principle, supportive of dissolving reach rules as they were becoming redundant through technological changes.
"But we don't want further concentration in ownership," Mr Ludlam said.
Scrapping reach rules is supported by all free-to-air broadcasters. A Ten spokesman dismissed speculation that the network had broken ranks on the issue.
"Our position has not changed," he said. "The removal of the reach rule needs to be part of a sensible, comprehensive media reform package, not an ad hoc change. There are other, critical reforms the government needs to address."

I am not sure if this photo gives the scale of these hydrangeas. By the end of the summer they are 6 ft tall and 10 ft deep. Can I transplant every other one or divide their roots to minimize their size. Even with hard pruning they are eating all most all of the front steps. I don't want to destroy them as they bloom all summer, but I need some way to control them |

You dont mention what type of hydrangea. If you have hydrangea paniculata ( big white to sometimes light pink flowers) you will always have a problem with size. And the best choice is to remove. Hydrangea macrophylia ( big blue or pink to red flowers) most dont get that large, unless maybe you are fertilizing too much. However whatever you have ---- it is too big! And needs to be constantly pruned to keep to the proper size. Either way, I would remove two plants on either side of front door, and plant a smaller shrub/conifers that does not over grow and crowd the front door. Mike |

The physical realm is one of polarity. The areas in which you find yourself intolerant are actually indicators of the "areas" within yourself that you are viewing (judging, labeling) with only half the picture (half the understanding of) and need to experience more of in order to obtain enough information to complete the understanding of (two halves make a whole) in order for you to see and understand the whole picture.
I've become more tolerant of others by realizing we are each vibrating at our own individual signature frequencies (stages) of consciousness (conscious of being conscious development), meaning just because you see another in an "adult" body form does not mean they have accumulated enough experiences to view the world around them from a "conscious of being conscious" viewpoint until one has experienced both sides of duality, which takes time and space.
People run on autopilot programs like the ones installed by the environment and those around them when they were young, while they are getting used to experiencing the polarities of the physical world while being in a bodily form, until they come to acquire enough experiences to write their own script from which to view and respond to the external world. They also realize and accept that they can deliberately bring a state of conscious of being conscious awareness (deliberate, conscious awareness) into each and every action /reaction of every moment.
Thus, each of us is doing the best we can with the tools of development we presently have in that moment, instead of becoming irritated plant seeds of information for the other to take into contemplation in order for them to evolve into the next stage. The energy of anger upon them only serves to cause them to block your seed of information, so delivering the seed with the energy of unconditional love and understanding where they are at in that moment is very important, both for your own development and theirs.

Part 1 of a 3-part series
Maricopa County Sheriff Joe Arpaio's main campaign promise is to keep doing what he's done. Tent City, chain gangs and meager meals for inmates all stay, even as the agency steps into a new era with the opening of two more jails.
What won't go away easily — whether it's Republican Arpaio, independent W. Steven Martin or Democrat Robert Ayala who is elected Nov. 2 — are some of the issues that have plagued Arpaio in his 12 years in office and some that have arisen in his most recent term: Crowding and understaffing of the jails; low pay for deputies and detention officers; and a number of lawsuits that potentially could cost county taxpayers millions of dollars.
"I think I've done a great job under difficult circumstances, as evidenced that the people believe I did a great job. That's why they keep re-electing me," Arpaio said.
Martin said Arpaio did do a great job his first four years in office but then turned his focus from law enforcement to selfpromotion.
"I think after the second election it took him about a year, year-and-a-half to develop the 'I'm the king theory and whatever I do and whatever I say is right,' " Martin said.
Ayala, who retired from the sheriff's office after 30 years, said Arpaio's clearance rates of crimes are too low and jail conditions too deplorable for Arpaio to have done a great job.
"We're still short of deputies in the field," Ayala said.
Arpaio began his latest term in 2001 under a budget crisis forcing him to, among other measures, cut inmate meals from three to two per day, close satellite booking centers, cut a deal with a major vendor to obtain a cash advance and change his way of doing business.
Still, he finished fiscal 2001 almost $3 million over budget.
"Since I've been the sheriff for 12 years we've never been over budget except that one time," Arpaio said, "But it's been taken care of."
Auditors wrote in a 2001 report that the county's Office of Management and Budget and the Board of Supervisors would "closely monitor" the sheriff's spending.
Arpaio's financial director, Loretta Barkell — who was hired in late 2000 and is credited with cleaning up the financial mess — started to describe the monitoring as "a lot of oversight."
Sitting at her side, Arpaio got testy and took issue with Barkell's characterization of the monitoring, saying it was simply "better coordination with the county on our figures."
"They don't supervise this sheriff. I'm elected, it is no oversight," Arpaio said. "What we did was we kept closer track of our expenditures along with the county finance (office)."
The sheriff 's office still works closely with the county's finance people and they communicate better than before, Barkell said.
"We always give them a heads-up so they will not be surprised when we come to them for contingency," Barkell said.
She said the sheriff cuts it close every year and returns about $100,000 to the county.
The 2001 budget deficit was caused mostly by fuel costs and excessive overtime used to cover a shortage of 616 detention officers, Arpaio said.
Since then, the county, using some of the $900 million from a 1998 voter-approved one-fifth cent sales tax, has funded the 616 positions needed to adequately staff the current facilities. An additional 713 detention officers will be needed for the new jails and that funding becomes available in January.
That is still not enough staff, Arpaio said.
Barkell said that since October 2003, 490 detention officers have either been fully hired, are in the training academy or in field training.
"Thank God for the sales tax," Arpaio said.
The daily jail population runs between 9,200 and 9,600, nearly double the capacity of 5,200.
Arpaio has managed the crowding by doubling up inmates in single cells, using double and triple bunks in dormitories and converting day rooms into dormitories.
The new jails, in downtown Phoenix and southwest Phoenix, will add 4,549 new beds, but they won't immediately ease the crowding.
Plans are to remodel two other jails, which will require their temporary closure, and demolishing a third. The inmate population has been growing at an annual rate of almost 4 percent.
Tent City, an outdoor jail where inmates live in government surplus military-style tents, will never close as long he's sheriff, Arpaio said.
Shutting it down would be one of the first things Ayala said he would do if elected because the new jails will ease crowding.
Martin has no plans to close the facility, but said he would make it safer by housing only first-time offenders convicted of minor crimes rather than mixing them with hard-core criminals.
"We can't afford to close Tent City," Martin said.
On every sheriff's budget the last four years the agency has identified low pay for deputies and detention officers as a major issue. The department can't keep qualified people or find qualified people to replace those departing.
Both Martin and Ayala said they'll fight for higher pay for deputies and detention officers and they can free up money by cutting what they call an unnecessarily large command staff and some of Arpaio's programs they say are not needed.
Arpaio said he has won a 32 percent pay increase for deputies and detention officers and he is going to fight for more.
"That helps us in recruiting," he said.
The county also approved a mass hiring of 42 deputies, all of whom are in the field, he said.
And even though there are currently no vacancies for deputies, Arpaio said he still needs more.
One of the more painful and controversial chapters in Arpaio's tenure ended just before his current term began. In December 2000, the Department of Justice ended a civil rights investigation into the 1996 death of Scott Norberg, a 33-year-old Tempe man who died after detention officers strapped him into a restraint chair.
No charges were brought against any of Arpaio's officers and the sheriff vowed to keep using the restraint chair to control unruly and violent inmates.
The wrongful death civil suit brought an $8.2 million settlement, most of it paid by an insurance company, and angering Arpaio because he was given no say in whether to settle.
Then on Aug. 6, 2001, detention officers put Scottsdale resident Charles Agster in the restraint chair after Phoenix police arrested him when he was acting bizarrely in a convenience store.
Agster, who had taken methamphetamine, stopped breathing in the restraint chair as detention officers strapped him in. His family took him off life support a few days later in the hospital.
Arpaio vowed not to settle the suit brought by Agster's family and attorneys are appealing a U.S. District Court's ruling in August against dismissing the sheriff from the suit.
Michael Manning, the Agster family's attorney, said in court papers he will ask the jury for $20 million.
The vow not to settle applies to other cases in court. Arpaio said too often the county settles without telling him.
"I'm going to insist on fighting these cases," Arpaio said.
Arpaio may get his wish since there currently are a number of potentially explosive and damaging lawsuits in court involving inmates who died or were seriously injured in jail, jail conditions and people wrongfully imprisoned.
County records show 11 cases were filed in the past two years in which the Risk Management Department has alerted county insurance companies of potential losses greater than $5 million, the county's deductible.
Martin said lawsuits are the result of insufficient training.
He predicted there will be a lawsuit arising out of a July 23 SWAT team raid in which an Ahwatukee Foothills home burned down and a dog died.
"We will see a lawsuit over this, whether it is the insurance company or the homeowner," Martin said.
Ayala said one way to avoid lawsuits is to improve training and secure jail accreditation, which would involve intense scrutiny, high standards and commitment to adhere them.
"They put you under the microscope," Ayala said.
Arpaio said he changed his vehicle pursuit policy in November 2003, prohibiting deputies from chasing people suspected of minor crimes, stealing cars and traffic violations in part because of lawsuits, but mostly for public safety.
Don't expect much else to change if voters re-elect him, Arpaio said.
"Nothing changes. I continue my programs, my policies. I continue the Tent City. Nothing changes in policies, especially in the third-largest jail system in the United States," Arpaio said.

10:11 a.m. Karst: In terms of apple grower-packer-shippers making those 20-year horizon type of decisions and investments, what types of things are important to the future of the deal?
10:12 a.m. Armock: One of the things we are excited about in the last five years is that we have been able to turn the corner on being able to give the consumer product that we can be much more confident that their expectations are going to be met. One of those key factors is the customer going to go in and get a better eating sensation consistently. As an industry, we weren't that good at it a number of years ago.
There were literally people who bought apples in the fall time of the year and they tended to become much less likely to buy apples during the late winter and summer months. Today with the advent of SmartFresh, we deliver a better eating experience than we ever did constantly throughout the season. We think that is real positive and our business has grown because of it. And the other side of all this is the fresh cut segment of the food industry has started to grow with apple fries at Burger King and fresh apple slices at McDonalds and the causal eating restaurant industry has started to put apple slices into sandwiches and salads. So that's a segment of the business that didn't exist for us before and is starting to eat up some of our production increases.
We see real positive things coming along, so how do we capitalize on all of this and enhance it? One thing is we can now look inside that apple and find anything that might be a storage disorder, any internal problem that may be in a very limited amount of the fruit that were packing and shipping that the consumer might buy, but it takes away the possibility of disappointing them.
This is the early (development) stage of this near infrared technology. We found a couple of (capabilities) that the people who sell this who have brought to market this technology, they didn't know existed and we managed to use it to help our customers from getting exposed to (bad apples). This is all evolving and now we are able to test for brix. That is big, very big. We are going to be able to segment brix levels as we move along here. We're going to get better at it and better at taking it to market.
We really aren't quite there on pressure, but when the consumer buys apples, they have certain expectations of what that experience will be like. The number one complaint is so often a mushy apple. There is always going to be mixed maturity in these pome fruit crops, we are going to be able to separate that out and not deliver that (mushy apple) eating experience to someone. We are not far away from having that and having this whole industry adapting that. It will allow us to be that much more competitive against the citrus industry, the banana industry.

Good News Translation (GNT) | New International Version (NIV) |
1 Now, God has offered us the promise that we may receive that rest he spoke about. Let us take care, then, that none of you will be found to have failed to receive that promised rest. | 1 Therefore, since the promise of entering his rest still stands, let us be careful that none of you be found to have fallen short of it. |
2 For we have heard the Good News, just as they did. They heard the message, but it did them no good, because when they heard it, they did not accept it with faith. | 2 For we also have had the gospel preached to us, just as they did; but the message they heard was of no value to them, because those who heard did not combine it with faith. |
3 We who believe, then, do receive that rest which God promised. It is just as he said, "I was angry and made a solemn promise: "They will never enter the land where I would have given them rest!' " He said this even though his work had been finished from the time he created the world. | 3 Now we who have believed enter that rest, just as God has said, "So I declared on oath in my anger, 'They shall never enter my rest.' " And yet his work has been finished since the creation of the world. |
4 For somewhere in the Scriptures this is said about the seventh day: "God rested on the seventh day from all his work." | 4 For somewhere he has spoken about the seventh day in these words: "And on the seventh day God rested from all his work." |
5 This same matter is spoken of again: "They will never enter that land where I would have given them rest." | 5 And again in the passage above he says, "They shall never enter my rest." |
6 Those who first heard the Good News did not receive that rest, because they did not believe. There are, then, others who are allowed to receive it. | 6 It still remains that some will enter that rest, and those who formerly had the gospel preached to them did not go in, because of their disobedience. |
7 This is shown by the fact that God sets another day, which is called "Today." Many years later he spoke of it through David in the scripture already quoted: "If you hear God's voice today, do not be stubborn." | 7 Therefore God again set a certain day, calling it Today, when a long time later he spoke through David, as was said before: "Today, if you hear his voice, do not harden your hearts." |
8 If Joshua had given the people the rest that God had promised, God would not have spoken later about another day. | 8 For if Joshua had given them rest, God would not have spoken later about another day. |
9 As it is, however, there still remains for God's people a rest like God's resting on the seventh day. | 9 There remains, then, a Sabbath-rest for the people of God; |
10 For those who receive that rest which God promised will rest from their own work, just as God rested from his. | 10 for anyone who enters God's rest also rests from his own work, just as God did from his. |
11 Let us, then, do our best to receive that rest, so that no one of us will fail as they did because of their lack of faith. | 11 Let us, therefore, make every effort to enter that rest, so that no one will fall by following their example of disobedience. |
12 The word of God is alive and active, sharper than any double-edged sword. It cuts all the way through, to where soul and spirit meet, to where joints and marrow come together. It judges the desires and thoughts of the heart. | 12 For the word of God is living and active. Sharper than any double-edged sword, it penetrates even to dividing soul and spirit, joints and marrow; it judges the thoughts and attitudes of the heart. |
13 There is nothing that can be hid from God; everything in all creation is exposed and lies open before his eyes. And it is to him that we must all give an account of ourselves. | 13 Nothing in all creation is hidden from God's sight. Everything is uncovered and laid bare before the eyes of him to whom we must give account. |
14 Let us, then, hold firmly to the faith we profess. For we have a great High Priest who has gone into the very presence of God - Jesus, the Son of God. | 14 Therefore, since we have a great high priest who has gone through the heavens, Jesus the Son of God, let us hold firmly to the faith we profess. |
15 Our High Priest is not one who cannot feel sympathy for our weaknesses. On the contrary, we have a High Priest who was tempted in every way that we are, but did not sin. | 15 For we do not have a high priest who is unable to sympathize with our weaknesses, but we have one who has been tempted in every way, just as we are--yet was without sin. |
16 Let us have confidence, then, and approach God's throne, where there is grace. There we will receive mercy and find grace to help us just when we need it. | 16 Let us then approach the throne of grace with confidence, so that we may receive mercy and find grace to help us in our time of need. |

Make Money Money Take Take Money Money
Answer: Working on this street will earn you the most money without holding you accountable for any of your failings.
By Bess LevinMaria Bartiromo: [Five second face]
Dennis Berman: What is Wall Street?
Yes, people, Dennis Berman's answer (and column from yesterday's Wall Street Journal) would suggest that he's on to your little game. Don't even act like you don't know what we're talking about. You know, and we know, and Dennis knows. You get your bonus checks every twelve months, but the risks created by your work are spread over a longer time frame. By the time your fuck-ups (sometimes monumental, other times just run-of-the-mill) are revealed, it's too late. You've already blown your checks on the Wii (Sun Trust) or ten Wiis (Goldman) (and if you're Brian Hunter, tackle and bait). What's Bear Stearns going to do, repossess your sense of self-worth derived from buying that Scores girl a newer, bigger set of implants?
You'd have to bend over backward to a. not get an enormous bonus as a banker or trader and b. sexually harass everyone within a 100-foot, 2-floor radius (merely running the firm's hedge fund into the ground won't do it, right, John Costas?) to even flirt with the idea of getting canned. One "top merger banker" told Berman on Friday: "I'm underwater on every single loan on my book."
So get out there today and buy a million shares of Homebanc Corp. Georgia, which is probably about to fold and turn into junk. Then infect yourself with HIV via a Port Authority regular and pass it on to the boss's daughter. And don't forget to send your numbers to tips at dealbreaker dot com so that we might update our bonus bumper to reflect your handsome reward. Wall Street: long-term is just a fancy way of saying the next period of short-term.

Real men of genius. Today we salute YOU, mister I have more money than a third world country guy. Who cares if there are people living on the streets, you own the streets. No that's not a middle aged guy in a sports car, that is the man you wish you could be. So go ahead a crack open an ice cold Bud Light oh pillager of the middle class. Because it doesn't matter HOW bad the market's doing, as long as you're on top.
thats not a real bud light jingle is it?
Nah I winged it

Many people have dreamed of changing the dollar bill to have their own face on it and perhaps getting famous could do the trick; it seems to have done so in the 'Pop Culture Cash' series by James Charles. This series of photographs is entirely interesting as the famous people from Jimi Hendrix to Justin Bieber are featured in this set. What's amazing is that these dollar bills look insanely real, but couldn't be.
The coverage of pop culture icons is extensive, making this a thoroughly completed project as well. Even Ronald McDonald shows his face on a 20-dollar note with wrinkles and wispy hair to show his aging fame. My personal favorite is a bill featuring Van Gogh with his famous painting behind him. I would never spend that bill. Ever.

King James Version (KJV) | New International Version (NIV) |
8 But what saith it ? The word is nigh thee, even in thy mouth, and in thy heart: that is , the word of faith, which we preach ; | 8 But what does it say? "The word is near you; it is in your mouth and in your heart," that is, the word of faith we are proclaiming: |
9 That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved . | 9 That if you confess with your mouth, "Jesus is Lord," and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved. |
10 For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation. | 10 For it is with your heart that you believe and are justified, and it is with your mouth that you confess and are saved. |
11 For the scripture saith , Whosoever believeth on him shall not be ashamed . | 11 As the Scripture says, "Anyone who trusts in him will never be put to shame." |
12 For there is no difference between the Jew and the Greek: for the same Lord over all is rich unto all that call upon him. | 12 For there is no difference between Jew and Gentile--the same Lord is Lord of all and richly blesses all who call on him, |
13 For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved . | 13 for, "Everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved." |
14 How then shall they call on him in whom they have not believed ? and how shall they believe in him of whom they have not heard ? and how shall they hear without a preacher ? | 14 How, then, can they call on the one they have not believed in? And how can they believe in the one of whom they have not heard? And how can they hear without someone preaching to them? |

The view from above the Mist-o Trunk stool and side table is one that reveals a lovely tree-ringed timber top. The warm wood grain surface has been cut into a perfect square but remains as inviting as a true smoothed stump.
But a delightful illusion is achieved in the odd objects that's attributed to the use of transparent acrylic panels. A rectangular box was constructed to form the base of the furnishing so that each lumber block looks like it might just be floating. It doesn't always, but this marriage of synthetic and organic materials appears to work practically and aesthetically with a whimsical harmony. The Mist-o Trunk table and seating object would be an endearing addition to a minimalist space.

I just moved to SE Alabama from Orlando a few weeks ago. I put out a feeder Monday night and 5 minutes later a hummingbird came to it!!! Couldn't believe it! I think I scared him away because I got so excited. Do you know of any nurseries in area that carry a lot of hummingbird and butterfly garden plants. I am a big gardener for both and haven't found much plant wise so far. Thanks, |

HEPATIC METASTASIS from COLANGIOCARCINOMA
The patient I visited at the beginning of May, 2002 shows a grave weakening because of a liver neoplasm 10 cm in size. The mass was able to reach that size in spite of a prior surgical intervention on the colangiocarcinoma and
11 cycles of chemotherapy. The therapy was abandoned because of negative repercussions on the patient's body.
The daily infusions with sodium bicarbonate through a catheter located in the hepatic artery for six days caused immediately a sharp improvement of clinical conditions.
Further treatment cycles through arteries alternating with oral cycles led, in the following months, to the reduction and then to the disappearance of the hepatic neoplasm formation (doc 1, doc 2).
Doc 1: Before treatment with Sodium bicarbonateDoc 2: After treatment with Sodium bicarbonate
Doc 3: Declaration of the patient after about one year from the beginning of the treatment

Serves 2 (This recipe can be doubled to serve 4)
- 1 1/2 tablespoons red-wine vinegar
- 3 tablespoons olive oil, or to taste
- 1/2 cup cooked corn kernels (cut from about 1 ear of corn)
- 1 pound tomatoes, seeded and chopped [the secret of this recipe is to use the ripest, most flavorful ones]
- 1/4 cup thinly sliced scallion
- 1/2 pound fusilli or other spiral-shaped pasta
In a large bowl whisk together the vinegar, the oil, and salt and pepper to taste and stir in the corn, the tomatoes, and the scallion. In a kettle of boiling salted water cook the fusilli for 8 to 10 minutes, or until it is al dente, and drain it well. Transfer the fusilli to the bowl and toss the mixture well.

Page Navigation
Web links catch the eye (or ear) and tell a user a lot about the nature of your content; be sure to maximize their potential and avoid user confusion by following these tips.
For more, go to Tips for writing great links and learn about dirty magnets.
Avoid using language that reminds people they're on a website. (Example: "Click here"...) When reading a book, the author does not tell you to turn the page; the same principle applies to the Web.
To avoid text referring to the medium:
Do not use the same link text over and over. People will scan the links on your page. Give them meaningful information instead of a repetitive list of unhelpful phrases like, "Read more... Read more.... Read more" or "Click here.... Click here... Click here."
Use English for link text. Do not use plain URLs as link text; instead, use human-friendly text. The complete URL (http://www.etc...) is "machine-language" and is often not informative about the content behind the link.
Use the title of the page being linked to as the text for the link. The reader deserves immediate reassurance that the link and the page delivered are actually related. The title of the page is also usually informative about what the reader is likely to see when they get to that page, helping them make an informed decision about whether it's worth their time to click the link.
Put links at the end of phrases. When you put the link at the beginning of the sentence, the reader has to complete the phrase or sentence to figure out if the link is worth investigating, and then backtrack visually to find the link.
Keep links relevant. Links on a single page should be related to one another to avoid distractions from your content. If necessary, you can direct visitors to additional information by using links in a "related content" area.
Do not open new browser windows. Leave the choice about opening a new browser window in the hands of the user (right-clicking on any link gives the option of opening the link in a new window). Forcing people to open a new window can be disorienting, and it breaks a critical navigation item: the "Back" button.
It is generally preferred that web pages be offered in HTML format, since those are the most accessible and cross-platform compatible. PDF files can also be accessible, although since they require additional software to view and aren't very friendly for screen-reading, careful consideration should be given to the type and number of documents offered in this format. Learn more about accessible PDFs.
Links should indicate that a non-standard web page will be opened (since a person can browse a page by looking only at the links on that page, this information should be included in the link itself): Sample Link (Word) (PDF). If your document is long and might take a while to download, you should indicate a page count, for instance: (PowerPoint, 7 pages).
Links to sites with audio or video must also be identified; users should not be surprised by sound or motion that starts unexpectedly.
For accessibility reasons, the Unitarian Universalist Association (UUA) requires that all documents on UUA.org must be delivered in HTML or accessible PDF format. This means that any Word, Excel, etc. documents must include a PDF or HTML alternative.
For more information contact web @ uua.org.

Hi, this is Debora. The first thing you have to know is that I am not the Owner but the Manager. I was born in Lucca 45 years ago and have been living here ever since... I think I will stay in Lucca for ever.. Travel a lot but always return.. Lucca is home for me. That's also the main reason of my job. Invite you to come and love Lucca!
After a degree in business and economics and a long experience in my family company (coffee industry), I'm now happily running my Exclusive Holiday Rentals Agency and dealing everyday with a lot of people from all over the world.
I rent apartments, country-houses and villas in Lucca and it's surrounding area, with a special attention towards the historical center, within the beautiful city's walls.
It is important you to know that I personally select all my properties, I choose the right one after a long process.. I sleep in the property a couple of nights, I cook in the kitchen, I read newspaper in the living room.. and use bathrooms. But the result it is exciting: I'm very proud of my wide range of unique and self-catered properties, which I think are perfect for a great and comfortable stay... I invite you to contact me for any questions and information you may need. I am very pleased to help you. Also you can start by visiting my website LuccaHolidayHomes where you can see all the properties I deal with...
Debora Del Sonno purchased this farmhouse in 2005
This is the real sample of what our rural style was in the past centuries. The villa is old hundreds of hears… It is huge, massive. The panorama from windows and from the garden is one of the best in all our countryside. I also know very well the property manager… and I know how well she works… I strongly recommend this place to enjoy our countryside.. only few minutes driving from Lucca's walls.
Panorama, Quietness, Peace.
The Santo Stefano Villa lies in a wide and working estate producing a lot of typical products like olive oil, wine, honey and cheese. You can take a walk or cycle around and discover this extraordinary landscape.
The Villa Santo Stefano is located in the Pieve di Santo Stefano area only 9 km away from the medieval Walls of Lucca. On the road to Lucca you can find, and try, two of the most famous restaurants of the area: they are only a short ten minutes walk away.
Other Activities: walking, trekking.

In 1999, pro skater Geoff Rowley collaborated with Vans to produce this shoe. The result was a creation ahead of its time that revolutionized modern skate footwear. The world had not yet been exposed to a skate-specific performance shoe of this caliber, and it hasn't been the same since. This is a re-issue you won't want to miss.

I'm getting ready to move, and will be "in between" houses for about a month or two. I have a large jewelry box with a lot of jewelry in it that I need to transport safely. The rings and earrings I can throw in a box of some sort, or even a plastic bag, but the necklaces I'm not sure what to do with. I don't want them to get tangled. For the things I will wear regularly, I have a small travel case. Does anyone have any tips or suggestions for traveling with ALL of their jewelry? Thanks for any suggestions :) Christy |
Follow-Up Postings:
It takes FOREVER, but the only success that I have with moving chain type jewelry is to buy a package of small zip top bags. Michaels or any craft shop has them...they are about 2" square. I put the CHAIN in the bag and leave the medallion hanging free, then gently zip it up (over the chain). They all go back into my jewelry box which I pad the inside cubbies with small chunks of bubble wrap and then tie shut with an old nylon. I had varied success with cutting small squares of lightweight cardboard. Cut a small slit in both sides of the square. Hook the medallion through one slit, wrap the chain around the card and put the catch through the other slit. It works, but not as well as the plastic baggies IMO. I have moved a LOT of times, can you tell?? LOL |
How about rolling them in a piece of felt or other material? |
- Posted by talley_sue_nyc (My Page) on Sun, Feb 1, 09 at 14:12
You could use shirt cardboard, cut into strips, and wind the necklaces around them. Cut a slit in the edge of the cardboard at the beginning and end of each necklace, and slide the chain into the slit to anchor it (sort of the way the thread is anchored on the edge of a spool of thread). http://welcome.solutions.brother.com/NR/rdonlyres/0DCAECA7-B93A-4734-A058-D1478463B32C/12299/2.jpg |
For regular chain necklaces and bracelets: plastic straws! Unclasp the chain, thread through the straw, cut the straw to 1/2 the length of the chain and clasp the chain closed. It should have only a little bit of slack. For chains that have big clasps, I'd slice the straw lengthwise, "cradle" the chain inside and then clasp it shut. |
- Posted by talley_sue_nyc (My Page) on Wed, Feb 4, 09 at 14:06
Ooh, I love that plastic straws! I would bet that even if there *were* more slack, that part wouldn't get tangled very easily. There wouldn't be enough length. |
just make sure any of your fine jewelry stays with you... |

Against the dark taupe, a bright yellow confetti-like print is completely eye-catching.
In an ethereal blue, this silk strapless dress is just so pretty.
An elastic waistband makes the blousy chiffon dress that much more flattering.
What we imagine a cute French girl on a bike would wear.
The sash on the left gives a dose of sass to a (very) little strapless number.
If you look closely, you can see the cool—and totally unexpected—python print.
The oversize bow neck is sweet; the hemline is outrageously sexy.

I'm getting all too familiar with the view at Irwin. Second floor is my normal spot, you can usually find me in the stacks somewhere usually with my friend Kelsey. Currently, I am studying for my Religions of the World final that I have tomorrow at one.
I already got my Starbucks fix, which I needed because I already took a nap at 630 – 7 in Irwin. Speaking of Starbucks if you didn't know they have a secret menu! It's awesome. Right now I am drinking a Red mocha, which is white chocolate/chocolate mocha and two shots of raspberry. Click the link to see the awesome secret menu!
Shockingly I am not too stressed about finals week. I am slightly worried, but all this studying has me pumped. I feel pretty confident so hopefully I am not jinxing myself. Plus Butler has been awesome with their stress less week, which they had really awesome things. They had dogs come in, doodle night at A Town and so many other things.
Hopefully all this fun/stress free life stays with me through finals week! Good luck everyone! Just to keep you from not going crazy, check out what Butler frat, Phi Delt, did to their house! So awesome!

Our journey is not complete until our gay brothers and sisters are treated like anyone else under the law, for if we are truly created equal, then surely the love we commit to one another must be equal as well.
With these words in his second inaugural address, President Barack Obama affirmed the essence of the gay position in America and in the world.
These beautiful words are in sharp contrast to the ugly words of Pope Benedict, who has stated he believes the love experienced by gay persons is disordered.
In Pope Benedicts defense, he has never claimed to be among those for whom it is self-evident that all persons are created equal. He doesnt claim to be part of the American journey.
But Winona Catholics do make that claim. How then can Winona Catholics further the American journey and still support Pope Benedicts disordered belief?
They cant. Yet many Winona Catholics continue to drop money in the basket on Sunday to support Bishop Quinn, Pope Benedicts faithful promoter here in Winona, where it is becoming increasingly self-evident that Pope Benedict and Bishop Quinn are both wrong in this mattermorally wrong.
I believe the Catholic priesthood is unable to resolve this dilemma, becauseand I ask you to consider this seriously and honestlyit is an organization significantly influenced by, and perhaps dominated by, self-rejecting homosexuals, so deeply closeted many cant even say the word gay.
Furthermore, their self-inflicted doctrine of papal infallibility has trapped their moral understanding in the Dark Ages, making it impossible for them to reconsider their misunderstanding of the Bible concerning gay people and their primitive understanding of human nature.
Worst of all, they remain oblivious to the bigotry, bullying, and self-hate they are causing by preaching their ignorant theology.
I believe that in the future when we look back in history at this issue, we will see that truth and justice emerged in our time, not from the Catholic hierarchy, but because the people of God decided to help complete the American journey.

1/2 cup
egg substitute
1 cup
half-and-half fat-free or substitute low-fat milk

WASHINGTON (AP) - Neil Heslin says it's all about his slain son, Jesse.
The 50-year-old construction worker is set to testify to the Senate Judiciary Committee on Wednesday in support of legislation by Democratic Senator Dianne Feinstein of California to ban assault weapons.
Heslin says he's gotten involved because of his boy, 6, who was one of 20 first-graders and six staffers who were fatally shot at Sandy Hook Elementary School in Newtown, Conn.
Other witnesses include William Begg, an emergency room doctor who treated Newtown victims that day.
Across the Capitol, the House Education and Workforce Committee planned to hear from school safety experts and counselors about how to keep students safe. Witnesses before the Republican-controlled House panel were expected to emphasize the role of school resource officers, who are sometimes armed.

General Issues Tips for Owners of Tires Consumer Division also cautions used car dealers to replace recalled tires, or to give buyers written notice that recalled tires on vehicles may pose a danger. DES
MOINES-- The Attorney General's Office issued a bulletin today
with tips for consumers who have tires recalled by Bridgestone/Firestone
company. The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration is investigating
over 60 deaths and many injuries that could be linked to the tires.
The " Consumer Advisory" provides information on how to determine if tires are part of the recall, how to obtain replacement tires, how to obtain refunds, and where to get more information. Bridgestone/Firestone has recalled all Firestone ATX and ATX II tires in the P235/75R15 size, and Wilderness tires of that size that were made in Decatur, Illinois. The Advisory spells out how to determine which Wilderness tires are subject to recall. Bridgestone/Firestone is offering free replacement tires and reimbursement up to $100 each for tires replaced with other brands. The Consumer Protection Division also is advising several thousand licensed used car dealers in Iowa to remove recalled tires from vehicles on their lots whenever possible, and to provide written notice to customers if tires on a used vehicle are subject to recall and may pose a danger. The Advisory, an information sheet telling how to identify recalled tires, and the letter to licensed car dealers are available at the Consumer Protection section of the Attorney General's web site: www.IowaAttorneyGeneral.org. The letter to dealers states that failure to replace recalled tires or provide a clear written notice to buyers might be found by a court to be an unfair sales practice and a violation of the Iowa Consumer Fraud Act. "Your cooperation is needed," the letter states. "Thank you for taking these measures for safety and fairness." The letter to dealers is going out at the end of this week. Bridgestone/Firestone is providing compensation up to $100 each for recalled tires that consumers replace with other brands. The company asks consumers to return the recalled tires to a Firestone retailer. The Attorney General's Office recently wrote to Bridgestone/Firestone President Masatoshi Ono urging swift replacement of all recalled tires and asking the company to explain how it will handle situations where consumers replaced but did not turn in recalled tires - especially if the consumers had not received notice to return them. The Consumer Advisory invites Iowans to contact the Consumer Protection Division if they have difficulty with obtaining replacement tires or reimbursement. Consumers should write to the Consumer Protection Division, Hoover Bldg, Des Moines, Iowa 50319, call 515-281-5926, or send e-mail to: email@example.com. Detailed
information about the tires and recall arrangements also is available

to Identify Tires Being Recalled
Bridgestone/Firestone has recalled certain tires, offered replacement tires, and offered reimbursement, including for recalled tires replaced with other brands. At this time (Aug. 25), tires recalled are all Firestone ATX and ATX II tires in the P235/75R15 size, and all Firestone Wilderness AT tires in the P235/75R15 size that were built at the Decatur, Illinois, tire plant. Auto dealers and citizens are advised to monitor whether the recall is expanded, and to replace all recalled tires. Here are sources of information about the tires and recall arrangements: Bridgestone/Firestone - 800-465-1904. Web site: www.Firestone.com Ford Motor Co. - 800-660-4719. Web site: www.Ford.com National Highway Traffic Safety Administration web site: www.NHTSA.DOT.GOV Using information from those sources, here is more detail on identifying recalled tires: 1. Tires being recalled: all Firestone ATX and ATX II tires in the P235/75R15 size and all Firestone Wilderness AT tires in the P235/75R15 size that were built at the Decatur, Illinois, tire plant. (Note: the recall may be expanded without further notice to you by the Attorney General.) See below for details on how to identify the recalled tires. 2. Vehicles with these tires: Firestone recall tires were installed as original equipment on the following: Ford Explorers1991-2000; Mercury Mountaineers 1996-2000; Ford Rangers 1991-2000; Ford F-Series pickups 1991-94; Ford Broncos 1991-94; Ford Explorer Sport Tracs 2001; Mazda B-Series 1994-2000; and Mazda Navajos 1991-94. (However, not all tires included on these vehicles are subject to the recall.) Recall tires also were sold in the aftermarket and may be on any light truck or SUV with P235/75R15 tires. Tires are being recalled regardless of the vehicle they are on. Details
on how to check if the tires are included in the recall:
The recall includes ALL ATX and ATX II tires of size P235/75R15 (but not other ATX sizes.) The tire size is located on both sides of the tire in raised black letters. The recall includes certain Wilderness tires: Wilderness AT P235 tires made in Decatur, Ill. (Wilderness HT and LE tires, other size ATs, and tires made elsewhere are not recalled at this time.) If you have a Wilderness AT P235/75R15 tire, here's how to determine if it was made in Decatur, Ill.: Find the "DOT code" on the back or blackwall side of the tire. Tires made in Decatur have numbers beginning with VD - for example: DOT VDHLA 16089. The code is ten characters following "DOT," and only tires starting with "VD" are made in Decatur and subject to recall. Remember: you can always take your vehicle to a Bridgestone/Firestone store if you want them to determine whether your tire is included in the recall. Ford dealers also will check Ford vehicles, and most tire retailers will check your tires as well. Dealers
and citizens also should check with vehicle manufacturers or tire retailers
to be sure replacement tires are acceptable for their vehicles. - 30 - |
