you know like the Chick. in a Bis. crackers
Any help would be great. TIA |
Follow-Up Postings:
Sorry, but I tried all types of searches with no results. I have never made crackers because of the abundance of store-bought flavors, and Chicken in a Biscuit is one of our favorites. If anyone comes across with a recipe, I would be interested too! |
I had a thought. Have you ever made plain crackers? I'm sure there are plenty recipes out there for plain soda crackers or something similar to Ritz, but you can make a mixture of poultry seasoning and chicken bouillon to sprinkle on top before baking for the chicken-y flavor. Just a thought! |
You can do this, it is a big hit with my family 2 (10 1/2-ounce) boxes cheese crackers (recommended: Ritz Cheese Bits, not peanut butter flavor) Place the crackers in a large sealable freezer container. In a bowl, mix the oil, salad dressing mix, dill, garlic powder, and celery salt. Pour this mixture over the crackers, cover the container, and invert it to coat the crackers with seasoning. Refrigerate for at least 24 hours, turning the container every so often to keep the crackers coated. Let the mixture come to room temperature before serving. Store in the covered container in refrigerator. |

IFXPDFFactory 0.1.0 Alpha version now available
November 15th, 2013
First version of IFXPDFFactory for iOS is now available. It's an alpha version which means it has bugs and only the basic features are implemented but it lets you feel the API and test the concepts shown in the articles published so far.
There are 14 samples included in the samples browser application to show the features implemented so far. There is no Apple style documentation yet, but it will come.
Feel free to download the framework and take it for a test drive. Any questions you might have can be posted here as comments or sent by email to me.
IFXPDFFactory – part 9 – PDF optional content / layers
September 04th, 2013
PDF optional content (also known as PDF layers) refers to sections of content in a PDF document that can be selectively viewed, printed or hidden by document authors or consumers. This feature is now implemented in IFXPDFFactory framework.
IFXPDFFactory – part 8 – PDF fonts and text
July 30th, 2013
Support for the base 14 PDF fonts has been implemented. Also the text drawing methods have been implemented.
The base class for all fonts is IFXPDFBaseFont
. The standard 14 PDF fonts are implemented through the IFXPDFFont
class, which inherits from IFXPDFBaseFont
. The supported fonts are: Helvetica, Helvetica Bold, Helvetica Italic, Helvetica Bold-Italic, Courier, Courier Bold, Courier Italic, Courier Bold-Italic, Times Roman, Times Roman Bold, Times Roman Italic, Times Roman Bold-Italic, ZapfDingbats and Symbol.
IFXPDFFactory – part 7 – PDF images
June 28th, 2013
Support for drawing images on PDF pages has been implemented. An image drawn on a PDF page is represented by the IFXPDFImage
class. At this moment a PDF image can be created only from a CGImage object, later I'll add support for creating images directly from image files or memory.
PDF page imposition using CoreGraphics on iOS
June 11th, 2013
A recent question on StackOverflow asked about how to create a single large PDF page from multiple PDF pages. This process is known as page imposition, it lets you combine multiple PDF pages onto larger sheets to create books, booklets or other special arrangements.
My answer to that question handled only the situation when all the source pages had the same size and rotation. The code here is more complex and it handles any combination of page sizes and rotation.
PDF Frameworks and Tools for iOS and Mac OS X
March 13th, 2013
Working with PDF files using the native APIs provided by iOS and Mac OSX can be a daunting task so I decided to find projects and products that will make your life easier. The list is open for updates, feel free to leave a comment if you know a PDF related project that is not on the list.
IFXPDFFactory – part 6 – Vector graphics
March 12th, 2013
After a long break and finishing the implementation of several internal details that will support the future public APIs, the library is ready to create content. For the beginning I added support for vector graphics: lines, curves, etc.
Lets see how they work.
IFXPDFFactory – part 5 – Pens and brushes
January 10th, 2013
In the previous post I showed the color support in IFXPDFFactory. How are these colors actually used? Pens and brushes enter the scene here.
IFXPDFFactory – part 4 – Colors and colorspaces
December 20th, 2012
I finished implementing support for PDF colors and colorspaces. The following colors are supported: RGB, CMYK, Gray, CalRGB, CalGray, Indexed, Icc, Lab and Separation.
IFXPDFFactory – part 3 – PDF functions
September 03rd, 2012
I have finished implementing support for PDF functions. Usually they are a niche feature in PDF libraries and you might wonder why did I choose to implement them in such an early stage of the development. The answer is they are heavily used for defining separation colorspaces (does Pantone colors ring a bell?), PDF smooth shadings (gradients) and for other features.
Functions in PDF represent static, self-contained numerical transformations. In general, a function can take any number (m) of input values and produce any number (n) of output values. In PDF functions, all the input values and all the output values are numbers, and functions have no side effects.

on April 21, 2014 Source: Policy Dialogue on Entrepreneurship
'Necessity entrepreneurship' isn't a phenomenon that occurs only in emerging economies and countries reeling from natural disasters like the Philippines -- it happens here in the U.S. as well. And as the overall health of the economy improves, the number of individuals engaged in entrepreneurial activity as a way to 'make ends meet' continues to drop. This shift away from being self-employed contributed to a drop in business creation rates for a second straight year.
According to the annual Kauffman Index of Entrepreneurial Activity, released earlier this month, the rate declined slightly from 0.30 percent of American adults per month starting businesses in 2012 to 0.28 percent in 2013. That translates into approximately 476,000 new business owners per month in 2013 compared with 514,000 the year before.
The Kauffman Index reported last year that the new business creation rate had declined from 0.32 percent in 2011 to 0.30 percent in 2012.
The 2013 index includes new data on trends in entrepreneurship among new entrepreneurs who are not coming directly out of unemployment (sometimes called "opportunity" entrepreneurship).
The research indicates that the share of new entrepreneurs who are not most recently jobless was much higher in 2013 than at the end of the Great Recession.
"The 2013 business creation rate signifies a return to levels that we haven't seen since before the recession," said Dane Stangler, vice president of Research and Policy at the Kauffman Foundation, which conducts the annual study. "While we have speculated in recent years that changes in entrepreneurship rates could be driven by labor market conditions, this new data provides the strongest evidence we've seen of this correlation."
From a geographic standpoint, entrepreneurial activity rates declined in all regions of the country.
Among states, Montana had the highest entrepreneurial activity rate, with 610 per 100,000 adults creating businesses each month during 2013.
Rounding out the top five states were Alaska (470 per 100,000 adults), South Dakota (410 per 100,000 adults), California (400 per 100,000 adults) and Colorado (380 per 100,000 adults).
The states with the lowest entrepreneurial activity were Iowa (110 per 100,000 adults), Rhode Island (140 per 100,000 adults), Indiana (160 per 100,000 adults), Minnesota (160 per 100,000 adults), Washington (170 per 100,000 adults) and Wisconsin (170 per 100,000 adults).
San Francisco's 0.57 percent entrepreneurial activity rate was the highest among the nation's 15 largest MSAs in 2013. Philadelphia scored the lowest rate, 0.18 percent.
The complete report plus interactive data of annual entrepreneurial activity nationally by state and select MSAs since 1996 is available at http://www.kauffman.org/kiea.

I installed new springs on my garage door over the weekend. After installing them I operated the garage door opener through a complete cycle with no problem. I decided to check the safety sensors so i started the door down and put my hand in front of one of the eyes on door track and the door stopped and went right back up like was supposed to, but now when I try to lower door it only goes down about a foot and stops. Have made sure both safety eyes are solid green and when I put hand in front of beam the receiving eye goes out like supposed to. This is a Craftsman 1/2 hp chain drive, probably about 15 to 20 years old. Any suggestions? |

Release the door from the opener and operate by hand to check for excess heaviness or binding. If the door is properly balanced it should stay in place approximately half way between open and closed. I would also remove the cover and check the condition of the drive gear. This is a white nylon gear just in front of the motor. It will be obvious if it is going bad. |
just recently my door stopped going down completely. i tried everything the manual said to do...the sensor lights are on full-time. i adjusted force and distance. today i released the door from the chain...then i tried to open and close it...opened fiine, as it did with door connected. stopped going down just as it does with the door. should i try more adjustments? if so, which ones. btw...it does this with all remotes. |

I just replaced the worm and drive gear on my 1/2 hs gdo. It was bad when we got the house so it had not worked until i made the repair. It will raise and lower now but it only goes down about 2 feet and then back up the same distance. Not sure what would be causing this. Thought it might be the sensors, not sure. one has a solid green light and the other a solid orange light. When i cross the "plane" of the sensors i do not see any change in the sensors to indicate a block. I have tried re-aligning, but no luck so far. Any help would be greatly appreciated!! thanks, |

If when the door reverses the main light flashes 10 times it is a door sensor problem. Most likely though this will take care of it. Make sure you put the black cup back on the end of the motor shaft and that it is pressed all the way on. Make sure the RPM sensor is plugged in. If neither of these are the issue, then you probably did not have the motor shaft pushed all the way back when you tightened the coupler after replacing the worm gear. Loosen that coupler up and from the front of the motor (opposite end in which the coupler is on) push the shaft back as far as it will go. Hold it there while you tighten the coupler back up and then try it. |

the ups (of which i'll mention a couple below) have made the downs much more bearable though, so that's always a plus. how has your week been? let me know in the comments :)
i had a creative spurt, which (as well as other things) lead me to do a bit of marbling. well, marbling with old nail polish. i want to try to make it look a bit more like proper marbling but i can never seem to get the water temperature just right. better than just throwing out old unused nail polish, anyhow. will probably use these as collage backgrounds.
my work was in the financial times! well, that was at the end of last week, but i didn't do a snapshots post then, so..there it is.
i found these super cute little burger, doughnut and ice cream stickers whilst sorting through some things. gotta love some cute food stickers!
a short while ago, i won the debenhams lovedenim competition, which was an amazing prize of £500 worth of vouchers, half for me, half for the boyfriend. i bought mostly things i've wanted for ages like the paul smith rose perfume, mac lady danger lipstick and some brown chelsea boots. also, a nice black bag, as well as some other things. what an amazing win!

Outline of Need:
The Library will improve the quality of life by pro-viding workforce development and educational re-sources in a rural area. St. Helena Island is considered primarily minority community characterized by high unemployment and extremely low per capita income.
How Rural Development Helped:
Rural Development provided $6 million loan and $2.5 million grant assistance to Beaufort County.
The Results:
The St. Helena Branch Library project will provide educational, informational and economic opportunities for the St. Helena Community and will address literacy and learning needs of a severely under-served and under-employed population. The project will initiate programs to develop literacy and lifelong learning. It will increase professional, personal, academic, and workforce success. It will also support the preservation and dissemination of the Sea Island Culture.
The library will provide access to state of the art technology and self improvement resources. The library will be located adjacent to the historic Penn Center campus where, in 1862, an African-American school and cultural facility was established to educate freed slaves.
The St. Helena Branch Library will partner with the historic Penn Center which will increase visitors to this historic site and create awareness of their historic mission and accomplishments.
This project will help the community grow in the short term by saving or creating 75 construction jobs and 25 to 30 library staff jobs. In the long term, the library will provide St. Helena with free success-building resources for all ages. It will function as a center for education, learning, connecting the com-munity to its past, as well as to the internet, ideas and job training. It will help bring economic activity and opportunities to this small community

New cards list 'father's name' or 'mother's name' twice

The change comes after three families with gay parents petitioned the Population, Immigration and Border Authority.

While religion is not necessarily to blame for suicide, the association is 'troubling' according to the study author
Gays who were counseled from a religious leader were more likely to attempt suicide than those who sought no treatment at all, a new study has revealed.
The Williams Institute has found LGB people who received therapy from a medical professional were no less likely to attempt suicide than those who did not seek help, but assistance from faith-based counselors were associated with a higher suicide risk.

Australian Family Court Justice Peter Murphy has allowed two Australian transgender teens to begin stage one and two gender reassignment treatments with the support of their parents.

Who will adopt the millions of orphans worldwide who are already here, not perfect, and need us? Could lesbian and gay parents be the answer?
'Necessity is the mother of invention' goes the old saying. When there is a problem or an issue in play, a creative solution is often about to be realized. This point is nowhere more valid than in the area of LGBT couples having children and starting families.
When a new baby is born, now the parents are indicated as 'partners' instead of 'mom' and 'dad'
A hospital in Padua, in northern Italy's Veneto region, has started to write on new parents' bracelets 'partner' instead of 'mom' and 'dad'.
The new move was requested by a lesbian couple who gave birth to a baby on New Year's Eve, following an In Vitro Fertilisation abroad.
The two mothers would not accept a bracelet indicating one of them as a 'dad'.
The Padua hospital, like all the hospitals in Italy, provides the bracelets when a new baby is born.

Trevor MacDonald (MacDonald is a pseudonym), 27, from Winnipeg, has been nursing his infant son for 16 months, but was told by La Leche League Canada (LLLC) that he cannot lead support circles or serve as a breastfeeding coach because he identifies as a man, which goes against the organization's definition of motherhood.

Researchers from New Zealand's University of Auckland who conducted the country's first study into the needs of older LGBTs in aged care found staff feel other residents' homophobia is the biggest issue they deal with
University of Auckland researchers have conducted the country's first research examining the views and experiences of staff caring for older LGBTs in residential aged care facilities and retirement homes.
Findings reveal that staff believed sexual orientation had little influence on their ability to care for residents, but found dealing with homophobic attitudes and behavior by other residents a particular challenge.
But most staff also felt that community organizations that advocate on behalf of older LGBTs were a valuable resource to draw on.

Gay couples included in new paid parental leave legislation
Australia's welfare system recognised today that same-sex couples need as much support as straight couples when a new child arrives.
Legislation narrowly passed by the house of representatives will make 'Dad and Partner Pay' - two weeks paid leave at the minimum wage - available to the partners of birth mothers or the 'primary care giver' in the case of adoption.
Since January 2011, birth mothers and primary care givers have got 18 weeks paid parental leave in Australia. The change in law for fathers and partners will come into effect in January 2013.

Feuding lesbians in Florida spark global debate on motherhood
A lesbian who took the biological daughter of her partner to Australia has sparked a global debate on the question of motherhood and egg donors.
The American women, known only in the court papers as their initials, are both in their 30s and were police officers in Florida.
One partner donated an egg that was fertilized and implanted in the other, who gave birth in 2004, nine years into their relationship.
The couple separated two years later, and the birth mother eventually left without a trace taking the child with her.

Hello, We just recently bought a house with a well and started having issues. The submersible pump is ALWAYS running but the water pressure only gets to 18. I did follow the instructions on the sticky and replace the pressure switch as well as the gauge. The problem still exists. We have the pressure tank and the water filter left to tinker with, but I wanted to ask advice before I start switching things out. What are some possible causes for constant pump running and very low pressure? Thank you!!!! PS. Since we just moved in, I'll answer these as best as possible. |
Follow-Up Postings:
The well water level could be low The pump impeller could be fouled or eroded There could be a leak in the hose between the pump and tank. |
Could also be a leak in the piping from the well to the house or in/under the house. |

Jhasey How do you know its always running??? just curious we cant hear ours.... which I dislike, sort of, cause the old 110- 230 volt one, in the small pump house .I knew it was working. only aggravating ,cause the old owners(deceased) only had a small 6 gallon pressure tank... Jean |
Usually in the cases I have seen the pump impeller is worn and you will need to replace the pump. It could also be a leak between the pump discharge and the house. Did it work properly when you first bought the house and moved in? |

Lions Clubs International
Oak Brook, Illinois, USA — Lions Clubs International Foundation is supporting Lions in Africa in providing famine relief through an emergency grant for US$75,000 to help support refugee camps. These camps deliver humanitarian aid directly to those in need, including vulnerable children and women. Lions have provided more than eight tons of relief supplies.
Lions in neighboring countries are quickly responding by providing aid. Lions have formed a Lions Relief Team to coordinate emergency relief efforts and are collaborating with the Red Cross, UNICEF and other relief agencies in Kenya. Lions are also beginning to work with organizations in Ethiopia.
"The week of August 22, Lions of Kenya went to the affected areas to distribute our second emergency relief supplies. Lions from Nairobi and other volunteers went into the far North Eastern Regions and also managed to go into Somalia under Military escort to give out food relief and drinking water. It took our Lions, under the dynamic Leadership of Lion Irshad Sumra two days to get there and spent two days giving out vital supplies," said Past International Director Manoj Shah from Kenya. "We have finalized our next relief activity with UNICEF, which is targeted at providing for the special needs of more than 6,000 affected mothers and children at the Dadaab refugee camp on the border of Kenya and Somalia. Fourteen Lions will travel to this area and carry out this relief activity hands on."
Lions are helping the most vulnerable, who are children in the area of Northern Kenya and Dadaab, which is the largest refugee camp for the Somalia victims. Lions from Ethiopia are also assisting in the relief efforts. Dadaab, a camp designed for 90,000 people, now houses around 440,000 refugees, and approximately 1,000 more are arriving each day.
Somalia is experiencing the worst drought in 60 years, resulting in dehydration and famine. According to the United Nations, 3.2 million of the 7.5 million people in Somalia are in need of immediate lifesaving assistance. Already more than 29,000 children under the age of five have died.
In District 411A, Lions have put an emergency grant of US$15,000 from LCIF into use to provide famine relief, targeting an area near the Kenya-Somalia border. There, Lions distributed packs of food and supplies for people in dire need. Approximately 30 Lions helped over 3,000 Kenyans through this initiative.
During this activity, 550 family packs were given out. These packs contained a two week ration that would feed a family of five or six people, and consisted of flour, sugar, rice, salt, tea leaves and cooking oil. In addition, 200 women were given feminine packs, which consisted of clothing, slippers, soap, oil and more. Two hundred children were also given children packs, which contained slippers, juice, biscuits, a pencil, workbook and more.
"On behalf of the Lions of the world, we take this opportunity to thank LCIF for coming forward and the Lions of District 411A, especially Kenya, who were able to carry out this wonderful activity and joined the many humanitarian organizations of the world to assist the victims during their time of need," said District Governor Murtaza Dungarwalla.
More Lions around the world are helping, and some examples of Lions' generous giving to LCIF in support of this effort include:
Lions Clubs International Foundation is the charitable arm of Lions Clubs International, the largest service club organization in the world with 1.35 million members in 208 geographic areas and countries. Over the last 10 years, LCIF has provided US$50 million for disaster relief worldwide. Learn more about LCIF online at www.lcif.org.

"I made these noodles tonight to go along with some baked chicken. They were pretty good. I didn't measure anything out...just eye balled it. I thought it tasted similar to fettucini alfredo. I thought it needed something. Maybe some crushed red pepper and garlic. It would pair well with alot of dishes really. Pretty good and very easy!! "
"I made this soup tonight and it was AWESOME! I think pretty close to restaurant quality! I made it a bit different but pretty close to the original recipe. I used light cream cheese, and I did not peel the potatoes. I didn't have an onion so I used minced onion and some onion powder. I substituted cream of mushroom for the chicken b/c I didn't hav..."

"I really liked this recipe! I made this tonight, I had never made bruschetta before. It was easy and yummy! The only changes I made was 1) I couldn't find the bread it called for...had to use french bread cut small. And 2) I used feta cheese and a little mozarella and fresh chopped basil with roma tomatoes. My dinner guests really really thought i..."
"These were ok. I thought personally that they made better burritos. My husband and I both agreed that not adding the sauce over the top and just eating them as burritos was much tastier!Maybe it was the two cans of sauce, I think you could do just the one can and they would be saucy enough. "
"I used to eat these as a kid. I tried as an adult and I don't like them nearly as much as when I was a kid. Good if you are in the mood for something salty and slightly sweet. "
"I thought this was awesome! Totally ignore the poster who was nasty about it. Her loss!! What a great idea to grill it. I made it for my one year old niece and dusted it with powdered sugar and she gobbled it UP! I think I will try it with bananas rather than jelly or maybe do the honey just as a variation. I think I may even make it pb and choc ..."
"I thought these were great. I love love love a soft cookie. The dough was so soft I wasn't sure about them but they came out great. Very tasty!!! I would say though that the prep time in total is off. Bake time is fine but they take a lot longer start to finish than stated. "
"For ease this gets a five. I tried it thinking it would not be any good this way. I was shocked...it was actually very tasty and quick. I made one for my kids and they loved it. I am assuming it could possibly be lower in fat made this way if you go way easy (or omit)the butter. Yummy & quick! "

This blog is not written by Martina since she had to abandon the climb and was flown to the Nairobi Hospital. We still want to keep Martina's fans as well as friends and family of the 27 climbers who are still on the mountain informed about the last days of the climb. Here are today's events:
Obviously all awoke this morning gutted to hear the sad news that Martina had had to abandon the climb.
She was assisted down the mountain by porters and driven to the nearby Kilimanjaro Christian Medical Centre for assessment, then, as a precaution, she was flown to the Nairobi Hospital for further tests which showed she was suffering from high altitude pulmonary oedema – an accumulation of fluid in the lungs.
Dr David Silverstein, consultant in cardiology and internal medicine at the Nairobi Hospital, said: "Basically this is fluid in the lungs related to high altitude. It is potentially dangerous when someone is at high altitude, but once brought down, recovery is quick. Martina is doing well and will continue to do well.
Everyone was devastated that she would not be there to summit with us and her absence in the mess tent at breakfast was felt by everyone. However, everybody was well aware that a tennis great like Martina would not have descended unless she had to and were humbled by the good wishes she had sent via the tour leaders just before she had to leave the mountain. Fortunately the situation galvanised the whole team and made them even more committed to climb: not just for Laureus but also for Martina.
It had, rather unusually for this climb, been a clear night overnight and so the views as we set off this morning of the valley below were truly staggering. As everyone packed up the bags and refilled water bottles a few looked longingly at the comparatively sturdy wooden huts dotted around Horombo camp as they ventured out of their, by now very, soggy tents for Barafu. However, if last nights events had taught us anything it was that they were all very lucky to still be on this magnificent mountain Fortunately the team couldn't hang around for long as with 1000m of climbing to do this was always going to be a long tough day.
While the team still had strict instructions to go 'pole pole' (slowly slowly) there was definitely an extra sense of excitement about reaching the last camp before the summit. In addition, they wanted to get there with enough time to rest for a while also hoping that, by arriving early, they might avoid the worse of the weather.
This last aspiration turned out to be a pipe dream as the rain and then snow seemed to lash down on from every direction. This has definitely been the hardest day so far, not least because of the 17 hour day coming our way – starting at midnight tonight!
Among Martina's team is British Olympic badminton star Gail Emms and German Laureus Friend & Ambassador, Paralympian Michael Teuber, who said: "The whole group of the climbers is very sad about Martina's situation, but at the same time we are glad to hear that she is doing fine. Now we are even more motivated and want to reach the summit also for her. We will carry the Laureus flag up to the top and stick it in the ground for her."
From her bed at the Nairobi Hospital, Martina said: "I'm disappointed not to be able to complete this amazing journey. It was something that I have wanted to do for so long, but it was not to be. I am so pleased that we got it going and I will be watching and waiting for news from the climb when they reach the summit tomorrow (Sat). I didn't make it, but I think it has been a great success as we have raised funds and awareness for the work that Laureus does."

Martina, I am so sad to hear of what happened, but relieved to know that you are OK. You and your group are AMAZING in doing what you are doing.
I can't wait for all of them to reach the top.Speedy recovery Martina and thank you for all you do. -

Hope you´re OK, Martina. Good luck to everyone.

You'll get there yet, Martina. It's splendid from the top. Here's my personal challenge: recruit Roman Abramovich of the Chelsea Football Club to also make a second attempt. If he comes and puts up some serious money for your cause, and you're raising money for girls to play soccer in Africa, I will join you, and we will all see Uhuru Peak together.

Well done guys! Keep up the climbing, and we are all waiting for news of your final climb to the summit.
From Nairobi Martina is doing well and her breathing is easier today though still strained. She is longing to hear of news from 'her gang' on the mountain and hopes the donations will keep coming in to make their struggle worthwhile.
It has not been an easy trek for anyone and the trek organisers have said that this is one of the worst climbs, weather wise, they have ever gone through. Even some of the porters have fallen ill, which is very telling given their fitness and experience.
Looking forward to hearing from Gail, Michael and all soon….Good Luck and we at Laureus are thinking of you!!!
JP on 11.12.2010 14:12
Get well soon Martina. You are the best. That mountain is yours anytime you want it. Take good care.

I have cared for, and mourned the deaths of, friends who were dying of AIDS and who have been artists, writers, musicians and, yes, even some lawyers, doctors, stockbrokers and psychologists. Talented, loving, caring, beautiful human beings reduced to 89-pound skeletons, covered with Kaposi's sarcoma, blind from CMV retinitis, accepting death with equanimity, dignity, spiritual integrity and sometimes even humor--all dead, from infection by a virus that is an equal-opportunity killer. It has no preferences for sexual orientation or gender or social class. It is just as voracious in the body of a suburban housewife as it is in the body of an urban gay.
I don't think Mr. Cameron's hateful commentary should be encouraged by your or any other news service. Giving him a forum is tacit to sanctioning his behavior and his viewpoint. I agree with Professor James Cole, who says that Cameron is without "moral inhibition," and I think that is evidence of a serious behavioral disorder.
Sarah J. Chambers
Oakland, CA
As a socially conscious and productive member of the gay and lesbian community, I am outraged by the cover story regarding radical right, anti-gay zealot Paul Cameron. Although Ward Harkavy appears to try to diffuse Mr. Cameron's perverse and unscientific opinions about the gay community by allowing his vulgar proliferation to speak for itself, the article is negligent in its omission of factual information.
I find it incredible that a paper with your longevity and liberal reputation would devote a cover story to a man who ultimately calls for the extermination of all homosexuals. Not only is this shock journalism insulting to the intelligence of any sane, compassionate reader, but it gives a voice to ideas that should be reprehensible by today's consciousness without the benefit of countering them with scientific data. Mr. Cameron clearly has no business having any kind of public forum if he can "laugh" about the hundreds of thousands of gay men who have died from AIDS in this country. If Mr. Harkavy had written his article on a neo-Nazi skinhead who displayed a similar reaction to the Holocaust, I am sure the magnitude of this irresponsibility toward a viable segment of the community would have been realized.
Do Mr. Cameron and Westword not realize that AIDS is a worldwide epidemic with 60 percent of all known HIV infections transmitted through heterosexual contact? Why were this man's ill-formed observations allowed to stand without any facts to the contrary? In the interest of journalism, perhaps Westword should do a better job of informing its readers whether what they're reading is truth or cheap, dime-store fiction. In this case, Mr. Cameron's unchecked philosophy is too chillingly reminiscent of the propaganda of one Adolph Hitler.

Bolder Boulder
In response to the courageous (and ubiquitous) Name Withheld on Request who wrote the October 3 letter about Alan Prendergast's September 19 "Shut Up and Deal" and asked, regarding Boulder County's aggressive desire to preserve open space, "Is Boulder's abuse of power any better than that of other cities and counties that allow rampant development to occur on every square foot?" Yes.

More Monkey Business
My hat's off to Westword for allowing the public to take a peek into the secret and sardonic world of animal experimentation in Tony Perez-Giese's September 26 article, "Going Ape."
I fail to see how a bunch of monkeys in a CU lab can provide scientific information about the stress a child goes through when absent from its mother. The truth is probably just as Dr. Cohen describes when he says that the "good old boy" network at the NIH allows people like Laudenslager to hoard tax money for their own selfish purposes. Besides, hasn't anyone ever wondered why, after one hundred years of animal experiments, we have not cured one disease? Anyone with even the slightest knowledge of chemistry and biology knows that the data from other species cannot be transferred to humans. For example, aspirin can kill a cat; arsenic kills humans but is harmless to guinea pigs, chickens and monkeys; chloroform, used successfully for decades in human surgery, is poisonous to dogs; digitalis raises blood pressure in dogs but lowers it in humans. The list goes on and on.
When will the American people finally wake up and realize that the biomedical community has no interest in curing disease? But why would they, since there's so much money in "treating" it?
Bernadette Sonfeld
I applaud Westword for having the guts to write about the controversial subject of animal experimentation. Ten years ago I read a book on this subject and was shocked to learn what I did. It's amazing how millions are spent to do the most hideous things to animals behind closed doors, things that if done by a private citizen would be labeled "cruelty."
This subject needs to be brought out into the open and become the focus of robust and healthy debate. The "scientists" should not have so much power to be able to perform such atrocities with impunity.
If it is wrong to leave a dog tied up in a backyard all day, it is also wrong to take an infant monkey from its mother. There are alternatives to these barbaric practices, and in many cases the experiments are so ludicrous that they don't require an alternative, they just simply need to be abandoned. This is clearly the case with Laudenslager's maternal-deprivation studies. Animals and humans suffer because of this gross misuse of public funds.

Transmission of Light in Transparent Materials
Name: Melissa Status: educator Grade: 6-12 Location: Mi Date: December 2007
This is nearly word for word an objective out of the Michigan high school curriculum for physics in the "nature of Light" section. The objective reads "Identify the principle involved when you see a transparent object (e.g., straw, a piece of glass) in a clear liquid." I am not sure what I am suppose to be teaching. Any thoughts?
Hi Melissa,
I think that this refers to the fact that when you do this and look into the glass sideways, the top of the straw appears to be at a different angle/position than the top of the straw due to the differences in the refractive indices of air and water. Have a look at
for more information.
Dr. Topper
This is probably a lesson in refractive index and angles of refraction. Your students are required to understand that the angle of incidence will be different than the angle of transmittance if light enters a medium with a different density than from where it came from. This will mean that the piece of straw will appear bent. Another interesting experience is that an object with the same refractive index as the liquid it is immersed in will not be visible. This is an issue of having the same refraction effect.
Greg (Roberto Gregorius)
I would check out refraction, reflection and magnification. I would also call the state education board and ask them just what they mean by this benchmark.
Patricia Rowe
Hum. Good question about a questionable objective. At first I thought it might be after refraction (pencil in glass of water looks bent due to differing speeds of light) but the "transparent object" part makes no sense and it says "in a ...liquid" not part in and part out. I suspect the person/committee that wrote the objective does not understand what you are supposed to be teaching. Change State (ha, ha).
Mike Loop
Hi Melissa They might be referring to the index of refraction of the liquid and the transparent medium. If they are the same, it looks like the object disappears when submerged in the liquid. You should be able to demonstrate this with a glass test tube and a beaker of Wesson oil. If you slowly lower the test tube into the oil, the test tube will seem to disappear leaving only the writing on the tube visible in the oil. Give it a try! Hope this helps.
Bob Froehlich
I went ahead and looked up the section (Michigan has it posted on-line) just so we are clear (ha!), so here it is:
P4.9 Nature of Light
Light interacts with matter by reflection, absorption, or transmission.
P4.9A Identify the principle involved when you see a transparent object (e.g., straw, piece of glass) in a clear liquid.
I agree it is not exactly clear (again!) what they mean. Perhaps this refers to refraction, and how different materials bend light differently. The light bends as it passes from one material to the other, allowing you to distinguish two transparent objects. I am a bit confused since 'straws' are not necessarily transparent, but it makes me think of a straw appearing 'broken' when it sticks out of a clear liquid, also a consequence of refraction.

Some key details are missing, such as how or indeed if the official(s) will be elected and what form of non-profit will be formed - a section 503(c)(3) created on the basis of educational and/or scientific services may also offer tax exemptions for sponsors in the US for example. I'm expecting these to be clarified at the anniversary CloudCamp event on 24 June 2009 and with lots of eyes on the details there will be no room whatsoever for shenanigans - as I won't be there be sure to ask plenty of questions if anything still seems out of place. In particular it should be burnt into the memorandum and articles of association that the organisation cannot be sold or have its assets transferred to another entity that is not similar in spirit (e.g. non-profit), and that the objective of the organisation should be to educate about cloud computing rather than promotion of commercial interests (e.g. the infamous trade association). The officials should also be elected by organisers and/or participants (within say the first year if not immediately at launch) who should be true members of/subscribers to the organisation and thus able to vote; that way if our illustrious leaders lose interest (or their minds) then the community can continue. These requirements remove all temptation and make us less of a target for subversion, thus guaranteeing CloudCamp's continued viability (at least until we're so successful that it's no longer relevant and "cloud" fades into the background like "client-server" did a few decades ago).
In order to further improve transparency relating to the handling of money I will set a good example by being 100% transparent with CloudCampParis. That is, I commit to make available all details of money received and spent for public scrutiny. So far we have a number of €250 and €500 sponsorships confirmed or in the works and quotes for €1,200 and €1,500 in catering (depending whether we go for bags or buffet - I'd still prefer beer & pizza though), as well as something like €750 in flights to get Dave there for this first French event - we're on track to break even. I have already committed to sponsors to ensure that all funds raised will be spent on the event itself and encourage other organisers to follow suit. For those who raised concerns about potential improprieties I encourage you to challenge the organisers to justify their expenses with receipts and hope that they will do so proactively in future; with complete transparency there is no need for trust (and angst when trust is lost).
The real news of the day though follows on from my being (again) silenced by a "consensus" (which included many of those implicated by my earlier allegations) and then immediately after flat out accused of "only becom[ing] involved for one reason -- to try to fork the community" (only now deprived the right of reply). This is clearly BS as if I wanted to fork the community I just would have done so by feeding the growing unrest rather than pushing the committee to put its cards on the table; I have about as much interest in being at the "top" of what I believe should be a completely flat structure as I do in contributing to something which I believe could/will be eventually subverted for the enrichment of a few individuals. Although I've been sharply critical at times (more often than I would like), everything I post is [believed to be] true and almost always links back to a primary source; this was a flat out lie and it resulted in a flat out threat should it not promptly be proven or retracted with an apology.
Immediately after Reuven forwarded my message clearly marked CONFIDENTIAL to the public list, he and I got on the phone for half an hour (the first time we've actually spoken) and discussed our differences. He does a good job of summarising it so I'll just quote him:
I just got off the phone with Sam. After almost a year of public feuding, we finally actually spoke in person. First let me say that email probably isn't the best method for dispute resolution. I probably should have called Sam long ago. It's clear we share the same passions for open cloud computing. In regards to my previous statements about Sam's intention to fork CloudCamp, he has assured me that isn't the case and he is committed to making the Paris CloudCamp event a success we can all share. I believe him.Unfortunately those of you who found all this rather entertaining will have to go back to watching WWF as we're finally going to get on with furthering the interests of cloud computing rather than [in]fighting (which makes no sense whatsoever given we're not even competitors) or "inside baseball" according to one article. As TheOtherSam pointed out:
Going forward we agreed that continuing our feud is childish and does more harm then good. We are going to actively work to strengthen our relationship and put this ridiculous feud behind us. My request to Sam is that in the future is if he does have a grievance he call me directly before we take our frustrations public, we both agree this is a better approach then a public battle.
Reuven recently wrote about two watershed epochs in the development of the cloud industry. Given the energy and passion of these two individuals, this event might mark a third!Given things like the ill-fated Open Cloud Alliance now have some chance of seeing the light of day, duplicate initiatives like the Unified Cloud Interface (UCI) and Open Cloud Computing Interface (OCCI) can work together and fiascos like the Open Cloud Manifesto are less likely to occur behind closed doors this may well prove correct - one thing you can be sure of is that where I'm involved there will be NoBullshit™
So let's close this chapter and get on with it...

2012 Fall Festival Diane's Team Day 2 Booth Reviews
Diane's Team—Day 2 of Fall Festival Booth Reviews
**Booth 67-- (St. Peter's UMC) (Deep Fried Mashed Potato Balls) OMG!!!!!!! These are absolutely fabulous and a unamimous choice by the entire team; they are spectacular and very original. They are mashed potatoes around chopped bacon, onion and cheese, then deep fried to perfection! Served with ranch or horseradish or enjoy them by themselves! **WIKY Pick Booth of the Day**
Booth 68—(North Band Boosters) (Smores Funnel Cakes) This was outstanding as well. Take a traditional funnel cake and cover it in hot fudge, marshmallow and graham cracker crumbs. It was really tasty, but could have been just a bit hotter. It's definitely worth trying.
**Booth 69—(University of Evansville) (Haystack in a Nacho Cheese Doritos Bag) What a great idea to capitalize on the popularity of the Doritos Tacos at Taco Bell. We absolutely loved it! The chili was hot and flavorful, the Doritos were crushed up and we almost ate the whole thing. Plus, the guys working the booth were so friendly and adorable; born salesmen! **WIKY Pick Booth of the Day**
Booth 70—(Delta Zeta Lambda) (Jalapeno Poppers) Hats off to another college-run booth! We've been impressed by the friendliness of these booths, plus their food is outstanding. The jalapeno poppers were excellent and can be served with either ranch or horseradish; we chose the horseradish and it was fantastic.
Booth 71—Impact Ministries (Cajun Shrimp Soup) This is one of the healthier choices on the street and also one of the prettiest soups you'll see. Very colorful and flavorful! They also offer some pretty rockin' Cajun sausage!
Booth 72—Montessori Academy (Chocolate Covered Cricket) This was Julie's first time ever eating a chocolate covered cricket and it was hilarious to watch! This was the quote when it was all over, "I feel like I've got a leg stuck in my teeth!" They also are offering Cricketts for the more adventurous. These are actual crickets that are either bacon, sour cream and onion, or salt and vinegar flavored. Be brave, grasshopper…..no wait, that's cricket!
Booth 73—(Tau Kappa Epsilon, aka "The Tekes") (Stromboli) This is an outstanding Stromboli! Their secret is the use of banana peppers (a bit hit with our group) and they also put the banana pepper juice in the meat. Very flavorful and served piping hot…..the guys were also super friendly!
Booth 74—(Right To Life of Posey County) They don't serve food at this booth (by this time, we were very thankful to have a bit of a break….LOL! But, they do have some pictures of adorable babies in their cute baby contest.
Booth 75—(Vanderburgh Humane Society) (Fried Green Tomatoes) The VHS is famous for their Fried Green Tomatoes, and they didn't disappoint! Delicious and we had them with horseradish sauce. They also have the Fried Mac and Cheese Balls.
Booth 76—(Cynthia Heights PTA) (Donut Bank Sausage Slider) Outstanding! Also, make sure to try their famous Fudge Puppy. BTW, they also take credit/debit cards.
Booth 77—(Young Life of Evansville) (Whit Chicken Chili) This is one of our favorites every year and it didn't disappoint. As a matter of fact my mom dispatched me to bring some home to her!
Booth 78—SWIRCA (Green Tomato Cobbler) This was delicious, and my friend April was a bit dubious at first. But then, she took a bit and this was her reaction, "Holy Cow, that's amazing!" They also have Blackberry and Peach Cobbler.
Booth 79—(St. Paul's Lutheran Church) (Chicken 'n Dumplings) This was outstanding. The gentleman who served us said it's his daughter-in-law's recipe and the dumplings were absolutely homemade and rolled by hand. Yummy! They also sell their cake balls.
Booth 80—(Westside Improvement Association) Stuffed Baked Potato…..always good, always tasty and good for you too! They also have a vegetarian stuffed baked tater and deep fried pepper jack cheese balls.
Booth 81—(Special Olympics of Vanderburgh County) (Italian Beef Sandwich) This is a new item for this booth and it was delicious! One of the things that made this so tasty is the melted cheese that mixes with the tasty hot shredded beef.
Booth 82—(Democrats) (Gyro Sandwiches) Always excellent! The lamb is succulent and very tasty, but the real secret here is the cucumber sauce…..outstanding!
Booth 83—(Evansville Association for the Blind) (BBQ Grippochos) Major points for the originality of putting pulled pork on a bed of Grippos potato chips.
Booth 84—(Eagles 427) (Funnel Cake) Delicious and fried to perfection.
Booth 85—(Christ Gospel Church) (Apple Dumpling) Outstanding!! The apples used come from Fairview Orchards in Mt. Vernon, IN and they are especially sweet and tasty this year because of the drought. Don't miss this one!
Booth 86—(Chandler UMC) (Beignets) These are the only ones on the street. We waited several minutes for a fresh batch and they were outstanding! Don't miss this New Orleans treat!
Booth 87—(7th Day Adventist Church) (Vegetarian Haystack) This was really good and this entire booth is vegetarian and always has been. They also offer items for folks that are vegan as well.

noun \ˈjä-sh(ə-)wə\Definition of JOSHUA
: the divinely commissioned successor of Moses and military leader of the Israelites during the conquest of Canaan according to the account in the book of Joshua
: a mainly narrative book of canonical Jewish and Christian Scripture — see bible table
Origin of JOSHUA
Hebrew Yĕhōshūaʽ
First Known Use: before 12th century
noun (Concise Encyclopedia)Leader of the Israelite tribes after the death of Moses. According to the biblical book of Joshua, Joshua led the people of Israel westward across the Jordan River to invade Canaan. Under his leadership the Israelites conquered the Canaanites and gained control of the Promised Land. The book begins by recounting the battles, including the famous demolition of the walls of Jericho. Joshua then divides Canaan among the 12 tribes of Israel, makes his farewell speech, and dies. The book was compiled much later than the events described, perhaps during the Babylonian Exile in the 6th century BC.

Poor Ben Stephenson, he's probably sitting in his controller of BBC drama commissioning office (door open, naturally), head held wearily in his hands.
But then, everybody at the BBC is probably doing that right now, given that a day doesn't go by without somebody having a go at the Corporation (some with good reason, most without, in my humble opinion of course). But Stephenson seems to weathering a particular storm at the moment (even from within the Beeb itself). It started with veteran TV producer Tony Garnett having a pop at the ethos operating within BBC drama right now (covered on TV Today last week).
And so, as you'd expect, Stephenson invoked right of reply, and also sat for an interview for the Guardian, which surfaced yesterday (and seems to paint a somewhat cautious portrait). But it seems that some of Stephenson's words from his first response piece have got some danders up, words which in retrospect might have been misjudged (if totally innocent).
"And with passion comes debate, discussion, tension, disagreement. If we didn't all think differently, have different ideas of what works and what doesn't, wouldn't our lives, and more importantly, our TV screens be less interesting? We need to foster peculiarity, idiosyncracy, stubborn-mindedness, left-of-centre thinking."
It's the reference to "left of centre" that has upset people, particularly the Conservatives (well there's a surprise.
"No journalist or editor should be following a political agenda, let alone someone as senior as a controller,"
Shadow Culture Secretary Jeremy Hunt has said in the press (and trust the Daily Mail to pounce on this one with such gusto). But let's pause to consider that Stephenson was not speaking politically here - in fact, it makes more sense to assume he wasn't speaking politically.
I mean, why would he be speaking from a political viewpoint? I would think it more likely Stephenson means "left field", to be radical or experimental. Yes, "left of centre" sounds political if you want it to, but it doesn't make any sense given context of the debate here.
That's my reading of it anyway. Not that it would be like a politician to get all sweaty palmed and go tilting at windmills when there's some quick political point scoring to be had - especially when the BBC are concerned.
Whatever you think of Ben Stephenson's stewardship of BBC drama (and he's barely been in the job a year), can we at least give him some credit for not being that stupid.
Or am I being naïve and tilting at my own windmill here? This one, clearly, could run and run…

In this video, IL postcards editor Len Galvin visits a guitar maker in the town of San Bartolome, near Cuenca in Ecuador.
San Bartolome is one of Ecuador's "guild villages," a system inherited from Spain that means each town or village specializes in a craft. San Bartolome (about an hour from Cuenca) is the village of the guitar makers—this video is of Snr. Uyaguari, a master guitar maker, and his son, Jose, who helps make the guitars and is an accomplished guitarist.
Editor's note: From craft villages in the mountains where the air is crisp and cool, to the colonial splendor of the capital Quito and the beautiful Pacific coast beaches, Ecuador is a country that has the perfect lifestyle to suit you, whatever your tastes.
