Find a pet to adopt |
My name is Olivia!
Facts about Olivia
- Breed: Domestic Shorthair
- Color: Gray, Blue Or Silver Tabby
- Age: Young
- Sex: Female
- Hair: Short
Olivia's Info...
I am already spayed, up to date with shots, good with kids, not good with dogs, and not good with cats.
Olivia is a beautiful gray Mackerel tabby with a pretty white face and pink nose! Olivia was abandoned and had kittens in November. Her kittens are all adopted and she is ready for a home of her own now! She is a very sweet cuddly and loving girl! She loves her people and would rather keep them to herself so she would be fine as an only cat!

Why Adoption is a Great Option
Olivia, a Harrisburg Domestic Shorthair cat was adopted! Here's how you can benefit by looking at adoption as an option to buying a Domestic Shorthair for sale in Harrisburg, or seeking a Domestic Shorthair cat from a breeder in Harrisburg.
- Rescues and shelter volunteers in Harrisburg already know the personality and tendencies of their pets. This means they can match you with the right pet. That will makes it much easier transition to owning a pet for yourself and your new pet.
- On average adoption fees are much less than you'd pay a Harrisburg breeder, or pet store. Plus most often rescue pets have already been to the veterinarian for a check-up, had a round of vaccinations, and are spayed or neutered. That is a lot of savings!
- You will become a hero, and give a needy dog or cat a loving home. In fact, there are even Domestic Shorthair breeders who help with Domestic Shorthair rescue. One puppy or kitten adopted in Harrisburg paves the way for another one to be saved.

Stickers and decals, maybe the best choice for any type of indoor or outdoor advertisement or promotional activity as they have the ability to remove and replace at anytime, anywhere. Switching of promotional stickers becomes easier because of such a flexible and removable printing stock, printed stickers on cling or vinyl are easily removable. They are durable and specially designed for provisional applications. Removable characteristic makes them ideal for temporary use; they really can work wonderfully on planar and non-porous exteriors like glass, metal or plastic.

They were easier to put on then I imagined they would be. I didn't use the center counsel cover just front seats with headrests.

Chilean Rose Tarantulas
Chilean rose tarantulas (Grammostola rosea) have hairy legs and abdomens with often pink cephalothoraxes. They are 11 to 13 cm in size and may appear larger than they are, due to their dense hair.
Chilean rose hair tarantulas (Grammostola rosea) reside in hot, dry climates and are found most commonly in Bolivia, Peru and Chile. Desert areas are particularly attractive to this species, as are scrub forests. They are a popular tarantula in the pet trade because of their often docile personality. Very little is published about their life in the wild.
These spiders prefer to prey upon crickets, while large specimens also consume frogs and mice. They hunt for prey and do not weave hanging webs as traps.
Prior to mating, male rose hair tarantulas create webs within which they deposit sperm. Males then cautiously approach female specimens while vibrating their bodies and tapping their legs. Females interested in breeding will respond to these stimuli.
Females are commonly larger than males and have been known to attack and devour males after mating. Rose hair tarantula males anticipate this danger and attempt to flee immediately following fertilization.
After mating, fertile females lay up to hundreds of eggs within one egg sac.
Chilean rose tarantulas are relatively docile arachnids and usually will not attack unless threatened. Although they possess venom, rose hair tarantulas only bite when provoked, and their venom is not a medical threat. Most bites cause localized pain, and bleeding may occur due to the size of the fangs.
The urticating hair of a Chilean rose tarantula irritates skin when touched. They are capable of flicking these barbed hairs in the direction of potential attackers. In the event of any severe effects, seek medical attention.

Infographic on Cons of American Two-Party System
Ready for a new party? Ready for one that is Solutions Based, not Excuses? www.veteranspartyofamerica.org
America needs a Centrist party. The Republican party can become this party by kicking out the social conservatives and the right wing wackos. The far right keeps blaming moderate Republicans for election losses when, in reality, it is the out-of-touch views of the right that turn off the majority of Americans. The Democrats are moving too far to the left at the same time the Republicans are being held down by the right.
I believe that the Democrats are not becoming more left, but the entire political spectrum in the U.S is shifting Right. What is Democrat philosophy now is what Republican philosophy only a short time ago. Yes, I agree with you that a third party is needed to be made out of some progressives and moderate Republicans and right leading Democrats to establish a centrists agenda to allow today's Democrats to actually shift a little more Left; therefore, creating balance in the political debate and isolate extreme elements. Creating this new party is being made easier by the fact that the Far right of the Republican Party , and associates (PACs) is targeting moderate politicians to be eliminated in the primaries in various districts.
I would argue that we desperately need a third party. I don't care who is part of it unless they would disagree with the following
1. Drastic Campaign Finance reform- elections shouldn't last several years and cost us billions
2. Drastic cuts in the military- starting with the billions serviced away in black budgets
3. End of nuclear power plants- It will be the end of us if we do not
4. Reigning in of NSA and the CSA who have consolidated powers unchecked for decades
5. An end to calling other nations either good or evil. There is no existence of an entire country that is evil
6. An end to America, backed by the elite and corporate power structure, that dictate its policies and mandates as the worlds police force.
Unfortunately, I don't see these important changes taking place without a complete change in power. The Democrats and Republicans have had their chances and have failed miserably. We need a People's party, or a mass collectivism started to combat the millions spent to bring back this country to a time it hasn't seen in a long, long, time. Thank you, Adam 36
Adam you are right on target!!!
I enthusiastically agree. I was even more convinced, if that's possible, after reading "Dog Whistle Politics: How Coded Racial Appeals Have Reinvented Racism and Wrecked the Middle Class." Without a complete sea change there's no hope for America. NONE.
The Veterans Party of America is that new Centrist Party. www.veteranspartyofamerica.org
We don't need a third party. We need citizens to become active in the party which most closely represents their views. Local parties should focus on informing the public on the issues and not just elect someone within their parties power structure. The state parties should be driven by the local party organizations instead of the local party organization being puppets to whatever the state party tells them.
We also need churches to start informing their congregations on political issues and to start taking stands on the political issues. Churches are allowed to do this but unfortunately avoid the issue and try to avoid offending anyone in their membership.
That's absurd. Church and State should remain separate. Further, "most closely represents their views" is also a ridiculous notion. I consider my self centrist. What...am I supposed to side with the Democrats because I believe that we do need some form of universal healthcare? (although I don't agree with Obamacare) or should I side with the Conservatives because I believe that social services are out of control and we should reduce the duration that unemployment lasts. Or should I vote for a third party because I believe that the government is just too darn big and needs to be trimmed down significantly. Your idea of choosing a side based solely on one notion is just plain stupid. We need a third party that is a common sense party that doesn't bow down to lobby groups, is a party of real leaders that understand how to balance things, and a party that isn't afraid to tell the American people that we are broke and this is going to hurt, but we're going to make changes that are fair. For example, how about increasing the corporate tax rate on Profits that are not put into R&D or into wages for those people making less than 200k. That is the cause of the wage gap, companies executives that continue to give more pay to CEO's who destroy a company than to the workers that build it up. I'm part of the top 10% with upwards of 200k /year family income. I'm not rich, live pretty modestly too, and I am tired of paying so much in taxes when I see lazy people who would rather get unemployment then go out and get a real job because they get more on unemployment. That is wrong. I believe that you should only get out what you put in (plus interest)
A third party would only result in more backroom deals. it is bad enough that we are so divided within and between the our major political parties, a third major party would make things even worse. 'divided we fall'.
When you study American history, it was the Christian values that guided America in her early years. I would certainly agree that too often people claimed to do things for Christianity when they were really doing them for their own self interest. They did not have religion, they had greed. When a person believes in GOD, their actions reflect that. They do what is right because they fear GOD more than they fear men.
FYI - I reread my previous statement and do not see where I said that anyone should follow one party. I think it makes sense for people to get involved in the party they are most closely aligned with but I believe you should vote for the person based on where they stand on the issues, not because of the party they belong to.
I do not believe we need a heath care system. Where do people get the idea that the government should always take care of them and that they are not responsible for themselves. They seem to feel that they can smoke, drink, take drugs, become pregnant, etc. and when the time comes that they need health care due to their foolishness, government should incur their medical costs.
WoW!! So forget the whole separation of church and state? We indeed need a third party and a fourth! Truly look at our history and where we are now and ask yourself where we have been brought?
Your right in a few aspects...we need citizens to become active. But I would argue that it would be for naught if it was in the current platform of democrats and republicans. I will list just a handful of very important issues that have not been addressed for decades
1. Lack of campaign finance reform
2. Lack of reigning in military spending and the powers of the CIA and NSA
3. the current existence of an American worlds police force
4. Federal reserve and unlimited money printing
5. The fact that most of congress is bought and are millionaires
6. The fact that we now rank over 40th in the freedom of the press.
Frankly, how do you really think the two existing parties have done in addressing these issues?
I think your comment about health care system doesn't take into account a number of costs to society. The basic tenant about personal responsibility for health is fine, but when one individual smokes, takes drugs, gets pregnant.. this has a massive effect on the rest of society (ignoring the effect of themselves). That person will eventually use the health care system whether they pay for it or not. When one becomes pregnant, the child will be a cost if that woman was not even able to take care of themselves. In theory (to paraphrase Ron Paul), people that don't take care of their health should bear the consequences, even if that means not treating them will let them die, and then the cost will be gone. But that is very simplistic, as many that can't afford healthcare will turn to crime until they eventually die.
Providing healthcare is not for individuals, but for the health of society. People that live longer, produce more, and increase opportunity. We can argue for ages on the best method of providing that health care (universal, government paid for by increase taxes; mandatory insurance, or a combination of both), and the pro's and cons of each (competition increases efficiency), but the premise that everyone should have access to healthcare is what has made productivity and growth so remarkable in the west for the past century. At a minimum, governments should provide only 3 things: Education, Defense and Healthcare. Everything else is negotiable (i'll add infrastructure, but that could be more local)
"I am tired of paying so much in taxes when I see lazy people who would rather get unemployment then go out and get a real job because they get more on unemployment." A) People with your income are paying much less in taxes than ever before B) The vast majority of people on unemployment are NOT getting more on unemployment and desperately want to work.
If what you call a "real job" is going out to pick vegetables instead of getting unemployment, of course nobody with any sense in their head will do that. Why should they? They paid into the unemployment system and they should be able to access that while seeking employment that can keep them out of poverty. Unemployment isn't just some handout for the "lazy" you have to look for work AND you have to prove you're looking for work.
Yes. If you'd look at Eisenhower and Truman you'd probably see more in common with each other than with either party today. The parties have been hijacked. Their platforms seemd designed deliberately in order to split the vote. Both parties ignore what the majority of Americans want on issues like immigration, trade, taxes and foreign policy.
Both parties represent the 1%. Corporations (for pennies on the dollar!) buy politicians by way of sponsoring the multi-million dollar election process. Meanwhile corporate media marginalizes, ignores or demonizes any threat to the two party system unless it is a corporate created third party such as the pro-corporate Tea Party. The end result is that no mainstream party currently represents the public interest. Democracy is an illusion in the U.S. and the culture of celebrity worship has replaced our civic responsibilities in governing ourselves. It was once said in the U.S. that... "in the Soviet Union you can vote for anyone... as long as it's Joseph Stalin." The same can be said here. "Vote for anyone... as long as it is either the Democrats or Republicans."
Much talk is going on in Washington about a civil war within the Republican Party. Some say that it could split the party in two and a three party system could emerge. The problem that keeps a viable third party from forming is that third parties that have been tried in the past have attempted to slice the electorate with conservative fiscal policies and liberal social policies.
Funding for historical third parties has come from the same 1% that now funds the two party system. If a third party has to form, this historical approach best suits them. This way, the 1% can control whatever party emerges as it already controls the status quo two party system. For the 1% can manage manipulation of conservative fiscal policies and really aren't too concerned about the outcome of social issues that do not affect the bottom line.
The party that could emerge free of the 1%'s bindings is a party that is socially conservative and fiscally liberal. Of course this party would be anathema to both the Republicans and the Democrats as well as the 1%. The Republicans would lose not only their socially conservative base but an even greater percentage of the independents that are in fact socially conservative and fiscally liberal. The Democrats would lose a minority of their party that are there because of a fiscally liberal agenda yet they would also lose that large independent vote that makes their majority in Federal elections. And the 1% would lose control of Middle America's vote.
This party concept has never really been done for it makes no sense in a two party system. Yet, as the Republicans infight to rid themselves of the social conservative stance, the third party that could emerge from that fight could grow sufficiently strong as to split America's vote into thirds.
The consequence of such a structure would be to force moderate legislation. Both extreme parties would be forced to court the vote of such a large contingent. And rather than the public breaking back and forth between the Republicans and Democrats every two years in an attempt to moderate the direction of extremes, this third party would moderate legislation from the outset.

Yes. Most americans are probably independent. Neither Democrate or Republican represent the general public accurately. Corporate america is to ingrained in the decision making process. Although Occupy Wallstreet was disorganized and uneffective I believe that same spirit could be channeled and redirected into a the formation of a legit 3rd party.
We were just discussing the "system" here at work. Some people justify the current system because of its age or what they were taught in civics. The system should be flexible enough to be modified and improved. There is no reason a 3rd party couldn't exist. The current system itself is broken. There is gridlock in Washington because there are only 2 groups. I would be so bold as to say the new party should be called the "Middle Class Party" and all the members running for office cannot be the benefactor of inherited wealth. The middle class party would look moreso like the demographic of America. There be people of all races (and incomes)not just the predominately rich white guys who cater to corporations that we currently have now.
I don't agree with the people saying our system can't be changed. Democracy should be flexible enough to accept the change it needs otherwise it isn't a democracy at all...
The Americans are naïve to think they don't need a Liberal Party. Obama is a Liberal and many Republicans would be Liberals. Romney is equalivent to Harper a Reformist/conservatist.
We need to abolish both parties so government is not about the extremes of either. We then can vote for people according to their beliefs and not their parties.
Abolishing the parties would be a violation of first amendment rights. Also, each party fundamentally represents a basic concept of government: big v. small. The ideologies of parties exists in the minds of the people and therefore cannot be abolished. On another note, people join parties because of their beliefs so by voting by party they choose based on their belief. Not only that, but ~40% of Americans are not in parties and therefore the largest party of people is the people not in a party.
Yea I was thinking about that after I said it.
american needs a second party. seems we have just one with two names.
If America had a third party, and the votes were spread out in the percentages of 30% 33% and 37% for the popular vote, you don't even have half of America's support on the elected candidate. With two parties there will always be at least half of America's support on the winning candidate.
America does not need a third party. In a two party system the winning party receives the most votes, obviously. If, for example, the candidate that wins receives a 51-49% victory then just over half the nation supports him, leaving the other 49% to less supportive. This means each candidate must strive to be the most appealing option available, because if he's not the other man wins. In a three or more party system the winning candidate does not need to be so broadly supported. If, for example, Party One receives 33%, Party Two receives 33%, and Party Three receives 34% of the vote, then Party Three wins the election. In that example the winner did not need to be as appealing, and now 66% of the nation does not support him. The more parties there are the less votes and therefore less appealing a candidate needs to be. The most important point is that in a two party system each candidate needs to be as appealing as possible so as to attract the most voters to support their candidacy, whereas in a three or more party system, since there are more options each candidate needs only appeal to their constituency and needs to appeal less and less to the minority. All that being said, America does not need a third party. What America needs is two parties that better represent the American public. The closest to the middle that each party is, the better because that means they are representing in some way a larger portion of Americans. Besides, having a third party isn't going to make a widely appealing centrist candidate suddenly appear. If that man exists, chances are he's already affiliated with a party. What needs to happen is each party must change from within to better represent the people. The creation of a third will only result in less people to being represented by their politicians in office.
I hope that helps explain why the American two party system is the fairest form of our version of democracy.
Make voting Compulsory in America, then a third party can actually have a chance. The reason why it is so polarized is America is because the only the fanatics on each side vote, therefore the politicians pander to those Extreme views, and ignore the issues facing the majority of people in the middle.
Voting is not just a right, but a Responsibility! Then centrist can't just complain that they didn't vote for the guy in office, which normally less than 30% of people actually vote for...
many people now, not afraid to state it anymore, would argue that with all of our current problems and corruption and highjacking of our country by the elite and corporate power system, there is indeed a reason not to vote. Never should voting be mandatory as it could very well be the only way that we can make change. I know that must sound crazy for you but until we can get a true party representing the people rather than the 1% then I do not want to exacerbate the problem. People inherently wish and want to vote! I know I do. But I feel as if I can't support either the Democrats nor the Republicans...and our system is set up to where I have to in many elections. And I just can't do it anymore.
But i think making voting compulsory will create new parties, instead of the current duopoly. The main reason why there is only 2 parties is because of lethargy that there is only 2 parties. The US requires simple plurality to win would, and would easily allow a 3rd party to only require around 40% to be elected. If, as polls suggest, people hate both parties, it will be easier to vote for a third if it was required to vote. Money will be less of an influential factor when the people that don't vote will have ignored the money spend (advertising etc) and make a choice based on there own knowledge and agenda.
The function of a "third party" is to allow one of the two existing major parties to fade into irrelevance.
As the Republican Party increasingly becomes the Dixiecrat Party, something resembling a sane conservative party looks to be needed. It says something that there is currently only one sane conservative politician on offer for President. (And he's electable, too!) That would be Barack Obama.
It really is no wonder that much of the left is dissatisfied with him. But look at what their alternatives are. Can anyone really believe for an instant that any centerist, let alone liberal, would even consider for a second voting for the nut-cases that the Republicans seem determined to nominate? Even some of us Republican conservatives can't stomach them.
Inn case anyone takes issue with the "Dixiecrat" label, ask yourself this: Can you name any Republican President since the middle fo the last century whose record would be at all acceptable to the current Republican base? Or any Republican President ever?
Since the founding of the United States, the only President these folks might even maybe approve of is Jefferson Davis.
Does America need a third-party? Yes. The crystallisation of many democracy is interesting. In Europe we have mostly a three party constellation, a conservative, social and a liberal landscape. The liberals mostly a minority turn the balance of power for example in Germany. In Holland a struggling minority liberal government had the make a deal as Shakespeare wrote and Prokofiev put to music as the Montagues and Capulets. A liberal party seems to be the conscience of politics which America needs. A green party in America has little chance.
Regards Terence Hale
The best third party would be a party in which only economists could be nominated. This would be the Economist Party.
I guess the third party would call themselves "Dee-public".
Our system is fine, it's the people running and maintaining it that need working on. Fine, let's make a new party, watch us turn into the same sulk of Great Britain.
America doesn't need a third party. It just needs Ron Paul to win the Republican nomination.
He is the only one who MIGHT actually oust Obama-- if only because of his anti-war credentials.
But, the mitilary-windustrial-spanking complex would exactly like him exiting our entanglements.
Plus, the US would have a really substantive debate for a change. . .

Index -> Recipe Finder -> Miscellaneous Vanilla-Shortbread Sandies (July 2001) Shaped like sand dollars and starfish, these melt-in-your-mouth cookies remind us of treasures found on childhood beachcombing excursions. Whipped Potatoes with Lima Bean Swirl (June 2001) A pale-green swirl of puréed lima beans enlivens whipped potatoes. Herb and Lavender Rolls (June 2001) Herbes de Provence, a traditional French herb blend that usually includes rosemary, thyme, marjoram, sage, summer savory, and lavender, is the fragrant and flavorful surprise tucked between the layers of these rolls. If you like, make them even more Pesto Vinaigrette (June 2001) Drizzle this versatile dressing over a plate of sliced, ripe tomatoes for a simple and delicious summer salad. Balsamic-Grilled Summer Vegetables (June 2005) Although balsamic vinegar is more expensive than other types of vinegar, we recommend it in this recipe for the intense, sweet flavor it imparts. Besides, a little goes a long way, so it's worth the extra expense. Chocolate-Coconut Macaroons (June, 2001) These popular cookies are spectacular on their own, but to dress them up for a party, we dipped the cloud-like confections in bittersweet chocolate. Fire-Roasted Red-Pepper Salad (June 2001) Roasted peppers also make a colorful accompaniment to cheese boards or a simple side dish with pasta. Double Lemon Tart (June, 2001) This tart can be made ahead of time and chilled, then caramelized under a broiler just before serving. Blackberry-Grilled Pork Tenderloin (June 2001) We've taken full advantage of summer's blackberry crop by using the fruit for both this recipe's marinade and its accompanying sauce. Champagne-Fruit and Marsala-Cream Parfaits (June, 2001) Marsala, a fortified wine from Sicily, subtly flavors the creamy layers between the marinated summer fruit in this elegant dessert. Chilled Fresh Pea Soup (June, 2001) This refreshing soup, with its cool green hue, offers a powerful antidote to summer's sizzle. Blackberry-Cassis Jam (May 2001) This cassis-spiked blackberry jam is the filling for our Lemon-Blackberry Cake. Use any leftover jam as a topping for ice cream sundaes, waffles, or pancakes. Banana-Caramel Cake (May 2005) Banana cake + caramel icing = heaven on a plate. Overripe bananas are a must in this recipe. Coconut-Pecan Filling (May 2001) One tasty forkful is all you'll need to recognize the distinctive crunchy-chewy filling -- pecans and coconut cooked to a sublime finish -- of our German Chocolate Cake. Red Velvet Cake (May, 2001) Not-too-sweet ingredients furnish this cake with its delicate taste and texture. Vanilla icing coats this four-layer temptation. Maple Walnut Cake (May, 2001) Maple syrup isn't just for pancakes. Designed for those who simply can't get enough of the ever-popular flavoring, our Maple Walnut Cake's layers and frosting are both generously doused with this all-American syrup. Lemon Buttercream (May 2001) What better way to commemorate a special event than with a traditional made-from-scratch layer cake? Use this tart buttercream for our Lemon-Blackberry Cake. Fluffy Meringue Frosting (May 2001) What better way to commemorate a special event than with a traditional made-from-scratch layer cake? Try this fluffy meringue frosting recipe with our light-as-air Coconut Cloud Cake. Fudgy Cream-Cheese Frosting (May 2001) A tall, elegant cake filled and frosted with this easy-to-make chocolate icing will be the centerpiece of any celebration. Coconut Cloud Cake (May 2001) Coconut is the star of this elegant cake. Its distinct flavor is exotic yet familiar. Cinnamon Whipped Cream (May 2001) The moist and spicy layers of our Stacked Applesauce Cake (see Related Links) need nothing more than the cool complement of this cinnamon-flavored whipped cream to sandwich them together. Caramel Icing (May, 2001) Be sure to have a candy thermometer on hand -- it will help you to get this homemade caramel icing recipe right every time. Maple-Sugar Frosting (May 2001) Maple syrup isn't just for pancakes. Designed for those who simply can't get enough of the ever-popular flavoring, Maple-Sugar Frosting is generously doused with this all-American syrup. Cooked Vanilla Icing (May 2001) A tall, elegant cake filled and frosted with flavors and textures that are sweet, silky, and smooth becomes the centerpiece of the party. Try this icing on our Red Velvet Cake, a four-layer temptation. Lemon Curd (May 2001) This easy-to-make recipe yields a bit more than needed for our Coconut Cloud Cake (see Related Links). Any extra makes a terrific spread for toast or a filling for a baked tart shell, which can be topped with fresh berries for a quick but elegant des Hot and Sweet Iowa Skinny (April 2001) Midwesterners may lay claim to the creation of this fried-pork sandwich, but the rest of the country also finds it hard to resist. We added a little nip with our spicy honey-mustard spread. Philadelphia Cheese Steak (April 2001) Every Philly resident has his or her own preferred version of this hometown favorite. Beef -- in this case thin-sliced sirloin -- rules in this onion-and-pepper-smothered hot sandwich. Louisville Hot Brown (April, 2001) The Louisville Hot Brown was first served at the Brown Hotel, in Louisville, Ky., in the 1930s. Muffuletta Sandwich (April, 2001) Fans of this New Orleans specialty love it warmed. To heat it up, wrap the sandwich, uncut, in foil and heat it in a 350°F oven for 10 to 15 minutes. The Pilgrim (April 2001) Watch turkey leftovers disappear when combined with cranberries and sage-flavored cream cheese. The Fresh Cranberry Compote we spread on this sandwich also works well as a relish for roast turkey, chicken, and ham. Healthy Californian (April 2001) We used whole-grain bread to make this sandwich, but the combination of fresh vegetables and cheese also works well tucked inside pita bread or a whole-wheat wrap. Deli Coleslaw (April 2001) Try our Deli Coleslaw with a hot sandwich like the Iowa Skinny (see Related Links) for a cooling contrast. Side dishes offer powerful flavor and build harmony between the bread and main ingredients of a sandwich. Olive Salad (April 2001) Use this to make our Muffuletta Sandwich. Any leftover salad can easily be used for an antipasto platter or tossed with mozzarella and hot pasta for a quick and easy meal. Fresh Cranberry Compote (April 2001) This compote works well with our sandwich recipe, The Pilgrim, and as a relish for roast turkey, chicken, and ham. New York Reuben (April 2001) By substituting pastrami for corned beef in this recipe, you can make a "New Yorker" -- our version of this Big Apple deli favorite. Serve it with our Oven-Baked Sweet-Potato Fries. American Frites (April 2001) Who can possibly resist a side of shoestring American Frites? Using a two-stage frying process for these diner-style French fries is quite easy, and the crisp, golden-brown results are well worth the extra effort. Clubhouse Sandwich (April, 2001) Thought to have originated in the club cars of American passenger trains, the Clubhouse Sandwich stacks three tiers of toasted white bread with classic chicken salad, crisp bacon, crunchy lettuce, and juicy tomatoes. Blue-Ribbon Potato Salad (April 2001) A creamy scoop of Blue-Ribbon Potato Salad goes well with any straightforward diner-style sandwich. We used russet potatoes in this salad, but you can use a mix of small red new and baby Yukon Gold potatoes for a colorful alternative. Russian Dressing (April 2001) Condiments offer powerful flavor and build harmony between the bread and main ingredients of a sandwich. Here, ketchup and horseradish enhance homemade Russian Dressing. Try this with our New York Reuben. Oregon Hot Crab (April 2001) Produced for more than 100 years in its namesake Oregon county, Tillamook Cheddar comes from fresh milk whose natural enzymes are key to making quality Cheddar cheese. On this open-face crab-salad sandwich it's the icing on the cake. Rosetta Sauce (April 2001) Try this rosy-colored tartar sauce whenever you want a bit more kick than the traditional kind gives. Use this to make our Lobster-Salad BLT. All-American Burger (April 2001) The invention of placing a cooked ground beef patty between a toasted bun is viewed as genius by many. America's favorite sandwich might even be considered a national treasure. Gorgonzola Buttermilk Pasta with Arugula (March 2001) Gorgonzola -- Italian blue cheese -- blends well with peppery arugula and buttermilk in this easy pasta dish. Farmhouse Cheese Tartlets (March, 2001) These savory bites, made with goat cheese, buttermilk, and sun-dried tomatoes, are easy answers for casual entertaining. Buttermilk Chess Pie (March 2001) Smooth, sweet, and tangy, this dessert is a Deep South favorite. Creamy Carrot Parsnip Soup (March, 2001) Let this subtly sweet and colorful soup lift your spirits during the waning days of winter. Chocolate Sauce (March 2001) Try this Chocolate Sauce with toasted pound cake or Belgian waffles. Or, use it to top our Creme Fraiche Ice Cream. Fennel Slaw with Radishes and Red Onion (March 2001) Try this updated slaw with our Spicy Southern-Fried Chicken. Slivered radishes give it color and kick. Crème Fraîche Ice Cream (March 2001) A silky texture and tangy flavor are characteristic of this easy and elegant ice cream. Tiramisu (March 1993) First created by Italian homemakers from humble scraps of cake, coffee, and sweetened cheese, this once-rustic snack has become a popular dessert on the menus of many sophisticated restaurants. |

Cole says Au Revoir to Chelsea
Paris St. Germain will beat off major competition from both Manchester clubs and Real Madrid this January.
The Daily Mail are reporting that PSG will offer Chelsea £23million for Ashley – who is rumoured to be unhappy at Chelsea, with contract talks breaking down.
Chelsea owner Roman Abramovich has brought in a new policy at Chelsea – with any player over the age of 30 only earning themselves one year deals.
Cole is believed to be upset with this arrangement due to the performance's and reliability he has given Chelsea over the years.
Carlo Ancelotti - head coach at PSG, called Cole 'the best left back in the world' earlier this month when asked about the clubs interest in his former player.
PSG are set offer Cole a three-year deal as they continue their drive to becoming the biggest team in European football.

I'm trying my hand at some fondant animal figures. My first attempt is a giraffe. It's not too tough, but I can't seem to get the neck to stay up and long. The weight of the fondant is too much (and the neck is not that high). Is this because I am only using fondant? Do I need to add tylose powder so that it dries quicker?
Any help is greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance!!!

Key message
Poor waste management system has been identified as one of the most important environmental problems in Serbia.
Wastes and waste management have been recognised as a major public issue. However, people generally tend to consider wastes as somebody else's problem, so solutions are expected from the government, its agencies, local authorities, industry, etc. The need for cooperation in solving the problems of waste disposal is only recognised in moments of crisis and public concern.
It is important to remember that waste, per se, represents the loss of materials and energy, and that its collection, processing and landfilling need large amounts of additional energy and labour.
Communal waste
To create a national database on landfills, the Environmental Protection Agency set up two projects in 2006 for:
- the establishment of a register of waste disposal sites;
- the establishment of a register of unofficial and old landfills and dumps.
Serbia has 164 landfills that are used by local utility companies for the disposal of wastes (Figure 1). Twelve of these are situated within 100 m of a settlement – highlighting the risks to the local population from contaminating emissions and possible diseases carried by vermin around landfills.
Waste covering is practised at 117 landfills and is done mostly with earth or some other inert material. Daily covering is practised at 15 landfills, monthly covering at one, and covering is only done occasionally at 101 landfills.
Types of waste discharged into landfills are given in Table 1.
Indicator | Year | ||
2006 | 2007 | 2008 | |
Total amount of generated communal waste (million t) | 1.73 | 2.07 | 2.55 |
Total amount of collected and land filled waste (million t) | 1.04 | 1.24 | 1.52 |
Average percentage of generated waste landfilled (%) | ~60 | ~60 | ~60 |
In the period 2006-2008, the amount of municipal waste generated increased by 30 %. This huge growth is not in accordance with household consumption in Serbia during the same period and can only be explained by better quality of delivered data.
Illegal dumping sites
Industrial waste
In the same year, data on generation of hazardous industrial waste identified more than 150 facilities producing around 1.90 million t, but the total may be slightly larger because of data without a waste catalogue number.
The Environmental Protection Agency has no data on packaging and packaging waste, only very rough estimates derived from communal waste composition in 2008. The necessary by-law for reporting was adopted, and the first accurate data will be delivered, in 2010.

The 2020 outlook
Key message
What is the waste 2020 outlook?
The short-term objectives, 2009-2013, of the Waste Management Strategy are related to the establishment of an integrated waste management system.
The long-term objective, 2014-2018, of the Waste Management Strategy is to re-use or recycle 25 % of the total volume of packaging material waste – glass, paper, carton, metal and plastic. Waste prevention will start with a public awareness campaign.
Existing and planned responses
Key message
Waste - Responses
The Law on Environmental Protection related to waste management sets out an integrated system of waste management from generation to disposal, covering waste import, export and transit, staff training designed to upgrade knowledge and raise awareness, and information access and participation of the public in decision-making processes.
The Law on Packaging and Packaging Waste Management sets out the environmental requirements which packaging must meet in order to be marketed, management of packaging and packaging waste, reporting on packaging and packaging waste, economic instruments, and relevant issues regarding packaging and packaging waste. The law is in compliance with the EU regulation.
Upon enforcement of the current Law on Hazardous Waste Management, the preceding law ceased to be valid with the exception of the following by-law that shall be applied until new sub-acts take effect:
By-law on conditions and methods of sorting, packing and storing of secondary raw materials which sets out in detail conditions and methods of sorting, packing and preservation of waste – secondary raw materials which may be used after treatment, and which originate from technological production processes, recycling, processing or regeneration of waste substances, services, consumption or other activities.
The waste catalogue and waste lists aligned with the EU regulations are in print.
Until new sub-acts are adopted on the basis of the Law on Waste Management, regulations on the basis of the previously valid Law on Environmental Protection shall be applied. This sets out criteria for determination of the location of hazardous substance landfills, the method of sanitary and technical development of landfills for environmental protection, as well as methods of landfill restoration, methods of managing certain types of hazardous waste, producing inventories of types and quantities of hazardous substances in production, use, transport, marketing, storage and disposal, and providing waste categorisations in accordance with the Basel Convention on the control of transboundary movements of hazardous wastes and their disposal.
Hazardous waste
The Law on Conformity with the Basel Convention provides internationally aligned mechanisms and instruments for the control of transboundary movement of waste.
The Law on Waste Management prescribes the requirements for batteries and accumulators, waste oils, waste tyres, end-of-life vehicles, waste electrical and electronic equipment (WEEE), waste fluorescent tubes, persistent organic pollutant (POPs) waste, health-care waste, asbestos waste, and waste from industries using titanium dioxide which are harmonised with EU regulation.
National plan
The first National Waste Management Strategy was adopted in 2003 and its goal was to harmonise national waste management with EU strategy, and transpose and implement EU waste handling principles.
It was revised in 2009, and the Revised Strategy is in the process of adoption. This determines the basic orientation of future waste management in accordance with EU policy and the strategic determination by the Republic of Serbia; directs activities of harmonisation of legislation in the process of EU approximation; identifies responsibilities for waste and the importance and role of ownership-oriented capital; sets waste management goals for the short and long term; and establishes measures and activities for achievement of these goals.
National Strategy of Sustainable Development
The National Strategy of Sustainable Development was adopted by the government in 2008 and the Action Plan in March 2009. The strategy's goal is to balance economic growth, environmental protection and social equity, creating a coherent entity supported by a corresponding institutional framework. It contributes significantly to the elimination of gaps between policy creation processes, harmonisation of possible conflicting objectives in policies, as well as identification of their mutual advantages.
Draft National Programme for Environment Protection
This programme defines the strategic objectives of environmental protection policy, as well as specific objectives for the protection of air, water and land and the influence of certain sectors on the environment – industry, energy, agriculture, mining, traffic, etc. It also identifies priority objectives within environmental media and sectors and suggests their reforms in order to achieve all the changes necessary for achievement of the objectives.
Waste prevention for Serbia
The Waste Management Strategy as well as the Law on Waste Management contain the waste hierarchy principle.
The objectives for 2009-2013 in the Waste Management Strategy are related to the establishment of an integrated waste management system.
The longer-term objective, 2014-2018, of the Waste Management Strategy is to re-use and recycling 25 % of the volume of packaging material waste – glass, paper, carton, metal and plastic, etc.
Waste prevention will start with a public awareness campaign.
The Waste Management Strategy governs the management of different types of waste, from the moment of its creation until its disposal, with the basic aim of establishing an overall system of waste management that will be organised in accordance with national and EU requirements and standards.
Policy instruments
Regulatory instruments
Bans are defined by the Law on Waste Management and harmonised with EU legislation and practice, and cover such areas as the disposal and incineration of waste which can be reused, mixing hazardous waste with municipal waste, etc.
Obligations defined by the Law on Waste Management prescribe waste prevention, prevention and reduction of waste production, reduction of unavoidable waste, and recovery or disposal of such waste including deadlines for achieving the goals.
Market-based instruments
At present, the only widespread economic instrument for waste management in Serbia is charging users for the collection and disposal of municipal waste. Typically, the collection of charges is carried out by public utility companies that deal with waste collection, transport and disposal.
Serbia lacks a number of significant economic instruments for waste management. In order to improve the current situation, the existing system should be reorganised and new economic instruments introduced. The starting point is:
- maximum observance of the principle that the polluter is the one who pays for the costs of pollution;
- establishment of an efficient, reliable and coherent system of instruments.
The producer responsibility principle is prescribed by the Law on Waste Management, and also the strategy. Manufacturers, importers, distributors and retailers of products that affect amounts of waste are responsible for the waste generation that results from their activities. The manufacturers bear the greatest responsibility because they determine the composition and characteristics of products and their packaging. The manufacturer is obliged to ensure reduction of waste generation, production of recyclable products, and the development of a reuse and recycling market.
There is as yet no tax on landfill, but one is proposed by the Waste Management Strategy. A system of service charging allows a tax on waste disposal to landfills.
There is also a proposal to introduce an eco-tax for specific products such as packaging materials for drinks and plastic bags.
Information-based instruments
The producers and importers of batteries and accumulators, as well as the producers and importers of appliances in which they are used will be obliged to mark them in ways that include information on separate collection, heavy-metal content, recycling and final disposal, etc.
The producers of waste oil, depending on the quantity produced per year, shall be obliged to provide a place of receipt and to inform the public until it is handed over to a duly authorised person for the purpose of treatment.
The producers or importers of electrical and electronic products shall be obliged to identify the recyclable components in order to inform the public.
Producers or importers shall be obliged to provide information on dismantling and appropriate treatment of end-of-use vehicles.
Voluntary instruments
As prescribed by the Law on Packaging and Packaging Waste: Voluntary agreement shall mean written agreement concluded between the government and the economic sectors concerned, which shall be open to all parties who wish to meet the conditions of the agreement, with a view to fulfilling the national objectives of this Law.

* Thinking interdependently
* Remaining open to continuous learningThis volume brings together--in a revised and expanded format-concepts from the four books in Costa and Kallick's earlier work Habits of Mind: A Developmental Series. Along with other highly respected scholars and practitioners, the authors explain how the 16 Habits of Mind dovetail with up-to-date concepts of what constitutes intelligence; present instructional strategies for activating the habits and creating a "thought-full" classroom environment; offer assessment and reporting strategies that incorporate the habits; and provide real-life examples of how communities, school districts, building administrators, and teachers can integrate the habits into their school culture. Drawing upon their research and work over many years, in many countries, Costa and Kallick present a compelling rationale for using the Habits of Mind as a foundation for leading, teaching, learning, and living well in a complex world. ...show less

Gleeful squealing rings out across Jump Mania's nearly 10,000 square feet of green, purple, and blue inflatables during jump hours. The laughter is coming from children as they bound through the obstacle courses, bounce houses, and air-filled slides comprising the indoor playground's 10 mammoth inflatables. With private party rooms, the springy arena also entertains bouncers for birthday parties, which are enhanced by goodies such as pizza, ice cream, and grab bags. Additionally, the facility welcomes caretakers with free admission, letting them enjoy a grown-up approach to the youthful excitement without having to sample play-doh sushi.
With dance classes available for kids as young as two, Edge Dance & Performing Arts aims to instill its peanut protégés with self-confidence at an early age. The center's team of instructors follows the lead of director Elizabeth DeRusha, a mother of two who started dancing at age two and now shares her passion by training children and adults of all skill levels. Together, Elizabeth and her team guide youngsters through various forms of dance, including ballet, hip-hop, tap, and jazz, and organize seasonal theater productions, as well.
The subterranean chefs at The Abbey Underground sate hungry stomachs with a menu of burgers, sandwiches, and traditional British and Irish dishes. Unleash inner anglers on the fisherman's stew ($5.99/bowl), an ichthyological gathering of haddock, clams, and blue mussels hot tubbing with fresh herbs and tomatoes. Culinary spelunkers partaking in the Abbey cottage pie ($9.99) tunnel through a thick layer of cheddar mashed potatoes to find a trove of rib eye, beef gravy, and veggies, and teeth invading mounds of fish 'n' chips ($12.99/full order) encounter luscious pieces of haddock that are hand-battered before being paired with golden fried taters due to compatible online-dating profiles. Sugar-laced epilogues bring mouths to a close around desserts such as the Guinness ice cream sundae ($6.99), a slab of brownie cake topped with two scoops of homemade Guinness stout ice cream.
The Irving Symphony Orchestra serves Dallas-area tune-seekers by lining up an ear-friendly array of diverse and distinctive live musical presentations. On March 12, the symphony's songslingers take the night off to make way for the virtuosic vocals of songstress Christine Ebersole.
Tucked away from life's daily barrage of appointments, meetings, and expectations, Dallas Yoga Center provides a tranquil haven for self-discovery and the mental truces that achieve inner peace. An arched Indian doorway marks the threshold between the outside world and the refuge of the 8,000-sq.-ft. facility, which houses four spacious, naturally lit studios.
Inside, instructors lead groups through more than 65 classes per week, which focus on a variety of yoga styles. During the studio's Beginners Yoga classes, aspiring yogis learn the basic motions and breathing techniques that serve as the jumping-off point for their yogic journeys. From there, they can explore the gentle calmness of Yin Yoga, the intense exertion of a hot Ashtanga Yoga class set at 85 degrees, the prop-aided poses of Iyengar Yoga, or the ab-toning workouts of Yoga Core. They can also take part in t'ai chi sessions that leave minds spry and energies recentered. After class, students can propel their practices forward by stocking up on the center's selection of yoga clothes, jewelry, props, accessories, and DVDs. For those seeking even deeper enlightenment, the center also sponsors yoga teacher training, and even arranges retreats to India, where students study ayurveda and yoga straight from the source.

Tire Rack Street Survival School
Stats Canada reports that motor vehicle accidents are the leading cause of death among 15-25 year olds; more than drugs and violent crimes combined. They account for over 70 percent of accidental deaths in that age group.
In an effort to reduce this risk and save lives, the Trillium Chapter of the BMW Club of Canada has teamed up with the Upper Canada Region of PCA to deliver the Tire Rack Street Survival School. This program is designed for relatively new drivers, within their first 10 years of driving, IN ANY CAR. There is no need to be a member of either the BMW Club or UCR to participate.
The Tire Rack Street Survival School goes beyond traditional driver education programs; the primary emphasis of the program is a "hands-on" driving experience with in-car skills-development in a closely supervised environment. Participants perform a series of exercises designed to teach the handling limits of their cars and make them safer drivers. Where else would students learn these skills and have the opportunity to practice them, before needing to use these skills in an emergency?
• One-on-one, in-car coaching
• In-classroom learning and collaboration
• Emergency situation recovery and avoidance maneuvers
• Skid pad and other car control exercises
• Safety demonstrations by professional emergency services personnel
• Lots of learning and lots of fun in a friendly and supportive environment!
The school is supported by volunteers and sponsors who care about our communities.
• A valid Ontario G2 or G Driver's Licence, or equivalent, for each participant. A G1 licence is NOT accepted. For non-Ontario license holders you must have an equivalent valid G2 or G license to participate.
• A car for each participant (alternatively, one car can be shared between 2 participants) – cars are NOT provided.
• click here to begin the registration process (if the link fails, mail direct to email@example.com) The registrar will arrange payment and register the student who is to attend. A parent may register their son or daughter but whoever is actually taking the course MUST HOLD A G2 or G.
• Check out and 'like' our Facebook page!
• To get involved as an in-car coach or volunteer, please email Mario Marrello. Thanks for your support of this program!

"At the national level, new laws and regulations are enacted and top judges deliver many landmark decisions giving shape, content and legal effect to these principles," says Dr. Zakri, who also serves as Joint Chair of the Malaysian Industry-Government Group for High Technology (MIGHT). "The judiciary therefore remains a crucial player in promoting compliance with and enforcement of laws critical to sustainable development goals."
Among their objectives in Malaysia, judges and legal experts will exchange views, knowledge and experience related to environmental law implementation. Regional co-operation will also be promoted, including the collation and sharing of information and material via such tools as ECOLEX (http://www.ecolex.org), a comprehensive database of information on environmental law maintained UNEP, the UN Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO) and the International Union for the Conservation of Nature (IUCN).
A world environmental organization with influence akin to WTO's
Participants will also consider the adequacy of today's institutions to cope with looming global and regional environmental challenges. A growing number of voices worldwide are calling for an international environment-related institution comparable in influence to the World Trade Organization.
In his brief for the meeting, Bakary Kante, Director of UNEP's Division of Environmental Law and Conventions, notes "arguments that international environmental governance is incoherent because there are so many layers of bureaucratic fragmentations between multilateral environmental agreements and has evolved as a system that is too loosely connected."
"The heart of the incoherence problem is the very fact that the primary international organization responsible for environment, the United Nations Environment Programme,

Aloha Stadium
Attendance: 33,671
Honolulu, HI (Sports Network) - Bryant Moniz completed 24-of-39 passes for 264 yards and two touchdowns, and added 62 yards rushing with two more scores to lead Hawaii to a 45-34 win over New Mexico State in Western Athletic Conference action at Aloha Stadium.
Joey Iosefa added 90 yards rushing and two touchdowns for Hawaii (4-3,2-1 WAC), which generated 503 yards of total offense, including 227 yards rushing.
Matt Christian completed 18-of-34 passes for 224 yards and two touchdowns for New Mexico State (3-4,1-2). Kenny Turner had a solid game for the Aggies, rushing for 119 yards and one touchdown, and also catching seven balls for 61 yards.
Hawaii took an early 7-0 lead after Moniz found Justin Clapp for a 24-yard touchdown pass at the 4:30 mark of the first quarter. Hawaii added another touchdown about three minutes later, when Kamalani Alo returned a blocked punt 13 yards for a touchdown to make it 14-0.
New Mexico State got on the board when Todd Lee found Austin Franklin for a 47- yard touchdown pass with 36 seconds remaining in the first quarter.
The final three minutes of the second quarter were wild, featuring three touchdowns. Both teams traded touchdowns, as Moniz hit Allen Sampson for a 25- yard touchdown pass at the 2:55 mark and Christian found Taveon Rogers for a 41-yard scoring strike at the 1:29 mark.
Moniz went back to work on the next drive, rushing for a touchdown from 17- yards out with 38 seconds left in the half to push Hawaii's lead to 27-14.
Both teams scored late in the third quarter. Iosefa rushed for an 18-yard touchdown with 3:10 remaining in the third frame, giving Hawaii a 33-14 lead with the point-after attempt failing.
New Mexico State responded with a score 37 seconds later, as Turner scored on a 46-yard touchdown run. The Aggies trailed 33-20 after a two-point conversion attempt failed.
Iosefa and Christian traded short touchdown runs early in the fourth quarter, with two-point conversion attempts failing after both scores. Moniz gave Hawaii more cushion midway through the quarter, rushing for a 19-yard score to give Hawaii a 45-26 advantage after another two-point conversion attempt failed.
Christian found Rogers for a nine-yard touchdown pass with 1:48 remaining, and the two-point conversion attempt was successful after Christian hit Lee in the endzone to make it 45-34. But the ensuing onside kick attempt failed, preserving Hawaii's eighth consecutive win over the Aggies.
The loss snapped New Mexico State's two-game winning streak, and marked the third win in four games for Hawaii.

Forgive me if I'm using the wrong name, but has anyone had any luck growing sweet peas (yes, the vegetable) in zone 10? I'm in Port Charlotte (FL) and new to vegetable gardening. If they're difficult to grow in my zone, perhaps you could suggest some easy-to-grow vegetables for fall. Thanks in advance! |

Here is a link that might be useful: English peas in Florida
What area of Georgia are you in Farmerdill? I'm in 8b GA and I never seem to get my peas in on time. The Univ. of Fl. recommends January, but I'm ready to plant in December now. It gets too hot before they are finished in May. |

Augusta. In th e photo above, the large blossoming plants were planted thansgiving, those just to right mid December, and the little ones to the right of onions February 1. All did exceedingl well this year. |
I'm like zackey. I'm in 7b SC and I never seem to get my peas in on time either! Fall planting doesn't work for me at all. If I plant in late Feb. and the weather cooperates I get some. But it seems to go from too cold for germination and growth, then it gets too hot for making peas. I had perfect weather for growing this spring, but it was too wet to get them planted! I have built a raised bed just for peas, for next year. I plan to sprout them before planting. People that say that they don't like English peas have never ate them fresh from the garden! It is one of my favorites! |

I bought several tomato varieties at a local nursery. All are healthy and growing excellent, except for my sweet cluster variety. This plant is still the same size as when I brought it home while the other have more than doubled in size. I have never grown this variety before. Is this common for this variety, or should I be worried? Other than not really growing it appears healthy in every respect.
�hanks for any help, Jon |

Bruce Springsteen fans received an unexpected -- and apparently unintended -- holiday gift over the weekend.
The New Jersey rocker's new album, though not due out until January 14, the 12 tracks from "High Hopes," appeared for sale on Amazon.com's mobile download site for a few hours on Saturday (December 28) before being taken down.
It's not know if the leak was planned or accidental, but the former seems most likely as Backstreets.com reports Springsteen's camp has been serving cease-and-desist notices under the Digital Millennium Copyright Act to websites subsequently offering the album for download.
There's also no word on how many copies Amazon sold before "High Hopes" compiles new and old recordings, including a fresh take on "The Ghost of Tom Joad" and a studio version of "American Skin (41 Shots)."
Tom Morello, the Rage Against the Machine/Audioslave guitarist who sat in for Steven Van Zandt during Springsteen's Australian tour last year, appears on the album, as do late E Street Band members Clarence Clemons and Danny Federici.
A limited edition version of the album will come with a DVD of the E Street Band performing "Born in the USA" in its entirety earlier this year in England.
Springsteen and company hit the road again on January 26 in South Africa, followed by Australian and New Zealand dates that wrap up March 2.
