Doctoral Candidate in Anthropology
My doctoral research focuses on how Christian churches in the Philippines define and organize themselves in the context of an increasing plurality of Christian groups. I am currently conducting two years of ethnographic fieldwork in the region of Mindoro, where I am exploring how churches institutionally respond to the changes in Christian practice brought about a denominational splintering. In particular, I am interested in how religious differences and similarities are socially framed within a shared Christian setting.
Academic/research interests: Philippines, Christianity, semiotics, institutional form.

@shahkr: Understand the motive behind creation of Pakistan. It is just hatred for India. What else can sustain it? India has more Muslims than Pakistan and many of them have prospered and will never set a foot in Pakistan, if given a choice.It is wishful thinking that Pakistan will stop its terrorism in India in exchange for a few $$$$B
Help pakistan by giving them FEW BN $. Pakistan is known for betrayal. India will not be fooled.
This is the best chance for Iindia to cash situatuion in it's favour.
Help Pakistan by few billion $$ and in return solve Kashmir problem for ever in favour of India. Also if possible try to get back so call azad kashmir or pakistan occupied kashmir back.
What Pakistan will do with all F-16s and naval ship and sub and tanks? if it promised for security umbrella by India?
Buy thase hardware for cheap.
Later or sooner Pakistan will have to do this.
@ apu2: "That will not happen unless Pakistan realizes that enmity with India on the frivolous issue of Kashmir is one key reason for its economic crisis"If not for enmity with India, what else can Pakistan represent? They have erased or trying to erase all marks of great Indian civilization. They are more Arabs than Arabs, more Muslims than Arab Muslims.
Some Pakistanis are trying to compare India's stock market crash of 2008 with Pakistan's current, acute economic disaster.In India, not many people invest in stocks. Mukesh Ambani's fortunes took a nosedive from $43 Billion to about $12 Billion, but he will somehow manage two sqaure meals. India's domestically driven economy remains strong and is expected to grow at 7.5% this year.
In contrast, Pakistan's economy is in shambles. Rupee has reached rock bottom, hyper inflation is on, the nation has little to export to meet foreign exchange demand. It will take a concerted focus on economy for the next decade to get out of this rut. That will not happen unless Pakistan realizes that enmity with India on the frivolous issue of Kashmir is one key reason for its economic crisis.
After reading Saks, I feel confirmed that the biggest enemy of Pakistan is from within. Dictatorships have halved the country already and now you see somebody longing for the return of the last dictator, Musharaf. So you would have a dictator any day, you say. And why don't you? Ask him to take part in elections and if he wins we will accept him. Pakistan has a democratic government and it happens to be secular also. The weakness can be turned into strength if dictator lovers support it also. I know Pakistan very well and know only Mohajirs support him. And they do not have a majority.
It's a pity that Pakistan has been driven into this corner. To add insult to injury, the country now has a very weak, indecisive and inept government courtesy its suicidal romance with 'demoracy'. We would prefer our benign dictator Gen. Musharraf any day. At least he didn't go down on his knees to America and its cronies and preferred relinquishing power. The country has been driven into a deeper morass eversince his departure.
If the current leaders had some sense - and courage - they would stand up and tell America and its allies that rather than being put on the dole, Pakistan should be handsomely rewarded for its huge role in the war on terror.
"Rohit L" and SharlfLThanks for your responses. I strive for clarity of thought and expression, but I am calm and collected. I try my best to be ruled by my head rather than by my emotions. No "umbrage" taken, whatsoever.Familiar, to some extent, with military life and wars between nations, I am no arm-chair jingoist. 1) In all my posts I have advocated closer trade and cultural relations between India and Pakistan. My hope is that the two countries will draw closer. 2) In the recent posts on this item, I am on the theme of "how did Pakistan spend it's resources - aid monies, military assistance"? That brought in some of the points "Rohit L" thinks of as "jingoistic dragging of India". The one about "beautiful women" was totally "tongue in cheek". I am disappointed that intelligent people like you, missed it. I now feel like "withdrawing" from my sense of humour.3) Like so many millions of people in most countries of the world, I am apprehensive about the fundamentalist inspiration that Islam is able to provide, more so, than any other belief system. Pakistan is in there too. I do not wish anyone to overlook it. That goes beyond just India-Pakistan. It may undermine humanity itself.
Indica: thanks for relatively sensible arguments. 'The evil that men do lives after them' said Shakespeare. We cannot undo history, but let us start a new era of understanding. Forget about beautiful women. Most of Pakistanis watch bollywood and think Ashervia Roy is the most charming woman. Arundhati is Christian, you may not know.Rohit: Thanks for your comments. We do not expect people to change their views, but some are real mean. Indian history is sad, there were so many invaders who came and conquered it. Look Moguls were brutal, but called themselves Indians, married with hindus. British, never met Indians socially, had clubs where Indians were welcomed only as waiters or cleaners and not as guests. Yet, we have come to live in their country and do not want o return. The average Brit had nothing to do with colonial past. Germans killed millions of Jews and non whites only a few decades ago, yet many of us are living there, even jews. Moral? forget history. Start a new life. People who hate are unhappy. That includes many Muslims also.
Whoa, calm down. You've so very articulately put the mischief by the other side into sharp focus; all I'm asking is that keep the arguement focused on the topic in question. Getting into a debate on what Pakistan did to India, or which country is at fault, or which is better, is totally irrelevant to the topic.
If you'd posted these comments against an article on say the Indian Embassy bombing, then Pak-bashing would seem relevant. The present crisis is Pakistan's own problem through its own doing. Let them stew in it. Why bring in jingoistic arguements and drag India into the issue?
I've read your comments in earlier posts too, and you seem to have a very deep understanding of the Pakistani psyche. However, I'd suggest you to put your point across when its appropriate. Thats all I have to say. If you still disagree, then thats your opinion.
As for your taking umbrage against my suggesting that we heal the partition in our minds - well, if we don't, then we'll forever be locked in a eyeball-to-eyeball confrontation with a people who will forever be our neighbours till the end of time. Geography says so. Try and refute that.
"SharifL""Your point on Kashmir": Perhaps, you are not in touch with Indian or Pak. media.Starting with Arundhati Roy ( a nice Hindu name), many Hindus, some well-known columnists, have called for a re-think on Kashmir. I too support this call. BUT the logistics of how to go about a PLEBISCITE is NOT so clear. People of Jammu and Ladakh will never be anything other than Indians. We are only talking about the valley and some districts. No Indian, man or woman, will ever be harmed for the views he or she expresses. No Hindu "suicide-bomber" as yet for anyone to fear.In the past, some Kashmiri Pandits (they are Hindus, in case you did not know) had argued for "azadi" for Kashmir, but that was before Pandits were killed, their women raped, their homes and temples destroyed right under the nose of 600,000 Indian soldiers. 430,000 Pandits are now refugees in Jammu, Delhi and some scattered throughout India. We have every reason to oppose fundamental Islam and Islamists. So have you in Pakistan. You will soon find out.How could you take my remarks on "we have more beautiful women" that seriously? BUT it is known to us that Pakistanis have in the past talked about how much taller and fairer they are compared to "Indians", how one Pak. soldier was "equal" to ten "chawal-dhal" Indian soldier. "Laughing we got Pakistan, fighting we will get New Delhi"..... Remember? You all meant it seriously- until 1971, whereas I did not mean it that way about "beautiful women"."Rohit L"I do not see any "name-calling" by any Indian here. Hitting below the belt? Bombing the Indian embassy in Kabul, printing fake Indian rupees and distributing millions of them in Indian cities - those are hitting "below the belt"- a war of death and subversion. War of words is better, my friend.You say, "some of us haven't even tried healing the mental partition". I am amazed. Read history to know how many conciliatory measures India has initiated, including granting MFN to Pakistan BUT Pak., has NOT reciprocated. More visas are granted to Paks to visit India (9,600 of such visa holders NEVER returned to Pak, they are still somewhere in India) but again that is NOT reciprocated by Pakistan. India yields, is conciliatory but Pak always finds some issue - the latest, is this "water issue", although, international authorities have said that India is within its rights to do what is proposed. You need to understand the psychology of what a person or nation is acting from. Pak., will dispute with India, no matter how much India yields. They will find issues. Read through actual events. In the 1980s, on the BBC, a former American Ambassador to Islamabad was saying, about his times there, "If one more Pak. army general had said to me how "wicked" Hindus are, I would have puked (vomited)".Notice how "Sarif L" (below) says, "I want to hear one HINDU say...". Not one INDIAN but Hindu..!! That "mental partition" the Rohits of this world better make a good note of.Make peace only if it is likely to last. Or else, it is like yielding concession after concession in the search for peace that will NEVER materialise. In their minds the "Hindu" bogey will always be.
I m confused. should I be more worried about my Country's down falling socio-economic condition or the bilateral anglo-oriental bifest??
Problem Solution: All Pakistani people should strive and change our current political leadership bcz the global financial slurp aint affecting us as much as Pred. Zardari's ***** character.
I'm appalled at the sort of comments some Indian readers are making. As an Indian myself, I find it extremely disturbing that some of us have to indulge in this kind of name-calling at Pakistan when it is facing a situation of crisis. As one Pakistani reader correctly pointed out - this amounts to hitting below the belt.
Fellow Indians - please grow up. You're doing a big disservice to your country by making such comments on a public forum. True, we have a lot of differences with Pakistan, but such kind of 'war with words' is not going to solve them. The physical partition happened sixty years back. But some of us haven't even tried healing the mental partition.
I do not think Pakistan has had any friends. The country has always had fair-weather friends!Pakistan is fast becoming a basket-case. If it wants improve the lives of the people, it should stop meddling in other countries' affairs and wasting precious resources on defence and start focusing on economic development.According to the Economist's Country Briefings, GDP per person ($ PPP):Bangladesh: $1,233India: $ 2,784Pakistan: $2,480Sri-Lanka: $4,200Malaysia: $13,000South Korea: $ 24,000Malaysia and South Korea had GDP per person below South Asian Countries in the 1960's. Leaders and (some people) of South Asian countries should stop pretending that they have power and start investing in their countries' future, if they want to avoid becoming basket-cases. If they do not do this, they will soon need to find large begging bowls and go on begging trips abroad. Even the begging trips may need to be financed by charities!
Only option pakistan is left is war. they can do it in three ways. civil war(kill yourself and die), go war with india which is of no use( either militarily or economically, there are too many indians) or go on war with middle east(punish who didnt rescue in times of trouble and get control of oil). If others can let u live you should not let others live
Yes it every possible to get some good faces in billiion
did u see vajpaii or singh i think they are also too cute
any ways if we say u more beautifull then soo what
but we know who are more beautifull
Any way i think u should grow up if ur too power full and economical strong why u steel water
Now india become a water steeling nation blocked water of channab
So too strong too big not think of think pakistan blaa blah
whats this
A Hypocracy
Some of you Indians are behaving like spoiled children. Hitting below the belt is not suited to readers of Economist. No pakistani denies the superiority of Indian development. What is this about Indian beautiful women and men? I thought we are all from the same race. Most of Muslims were originally Hindus. So where is the problem? Except those who come from the north are not as dark: that is the main reason for so many actors from north. Dilip Kumar, raj Kapoor family, Dutts, Dev Ananad and a long list.So you have more good looking people. Congratulations. But Let kashmiris decide their future. I want to hear one hindu who can stand up and say, yes, Kashmiris should not be occupied with nearly million Indian soldiers. Only one.
Bitter-truthAtleast our stock market has no floor. Brokers are atleast active. KSE broker now sleep on benches. sonn they will sleep in streets. Pakistanis are proud to be beggars. Thus only thing pakistan deserves is a aluminium plates
To take your mind off economic worries, I want to say to my Pak. cousins: "You will NEVER have as many beautiful women and handsome men as we in India have. That includes some of the most sensational Muslim women, such as Sania Mirza and Katrina Kaif. Salman Khan and Sha Rukh belong to us too."I have lost count as to how many of our Indian girls have WON the "Miss Universe" contest. "Nut Head", Please do your research and give us a list of all our beautiful Indian women, as at present. On the publication of your list, I want to be able to tell our Pak. cousins:"You can now go out to the Karakorum ranges and scream your heart out."
I have not come across many Indians who "hate" Pakistan. We know that you are the same bunch of Jats, Rajputs, Gujjars, Deccanis, Khatris, Baniyas and (some) brahmins, as the rest of the sub-continent. But many of you are "wannabe arabs". That is strange to us, yes.1) In truth, most Indians do not think of Pakistan, except when they see strangers up on Tiger Hill in Kargil. We have our list of problems that takes up most of our time...but, we are moving forward as a country. We can stand up on our two feet and may be, jump a little. Some of our private sector companies are now world players.2) What some Indians, may be saying to Pakistan is: "You guys spoilt the party for the sub-continent in the 1940s when you forced your "two-nation" theory upon it, taking a heavy toll in lives and property. Fine, what is done is done. BUT,what has become of the promised "pure land" you created after squeezing out millions of non-Muslims? You were prepared to set back the entire sub-continent's excellent prospects for this...this.. what we are witnessing?

This is a vegetable cookbook.
Whether or not it's a vegetarian cookbook depends perhaps on your point of view, and your food politics.
It's not written by a vegetarian, or with the intention of persuading you or anyone else to become a vegetarian.
But in the sense that not one of the recipes here contains a scrap of meat or fish, then it is indeed quite strictly vegetarian.
If you've seen my shows and read my books, you may be feeling a bit baffled to find yourself reading an article written by that notorious carnivore Hugh Fearnley-Whittingstall about the joys of eating less meat.
I can appreciate that.
But I really have been eating a lot less meat lately and I'm feeling almost evangelical about persuading other people to do the same.
Let me be clear: I have not become a vegetarian, nor do I think I ever will.
So the dialogue I'm keen to begin with other meat-eaters is not about vegetarianism, it's about vegetables.
I would love to persuade you to eat more vegetables. And thereby to eat less meat – and maybe a bit less fish too.
To summarise, we need to eat more vegetables and less flesh because vegetables are the foods that do us the most good and our planet the least harm.
Do I need to spell out the arguments to support that assertion? Is there anyone who seriously doubts it to be true?
Just ask yourself if you, or anyone you know, might be in danger of eating too many vegetables.
Or if you think the world might be a better, cleaner, greener place with a few more factory chicken farms or intensive pig units.
We eat too much meat in the west – too much for our own health and far too much for the welfare of the many millions of animals we raise for food.
I believe that factory farming is plain wrong – environmentally and ethically.
So it saddens me to say that, despite some recent significant gains in the UK on poultry and pork welfare, the problems associated with the industrial production of meat are, globally speaking, as bad as ever.
I still believe in being a selective omnivore, casting a positive vote in favour of ethically produced meat and sustainably caught fish.
However, I now understand that in order to eat these foods in good conscience, I have to recognise, control and impose limits on my appetite for them.
To that end, over the last 18 months or so, I have undergone a sea change in the way I cook: it began as an exercise, but it became nothing short of a small revolution.
It is now the case that most of the meals I eat contain no meat or fish. And I can tell you, with my hand on my heart, that I eat better than ever.
River Cottage Veg Every Day! in the River Cottage Amazon shop >
Hi Hugh how are you? Greetings from Brazil.
I´ve found the River COttage Veg series one of the more intrestings to watch. You certainly made my mind. I was so carnivorous as you and now i eat meat and fish two times a week or so.
I´m sharing the recipes from the show in my blog for the people in Brazil, and i pair them with good artisanal beers to complement their flavor.
I´ve already tried Gill´s Beet Tarte, Tim´s Melanzane Parmigiana, Jamie Pastie e your ketchup chickpea curry.
Now i´m after to begin planting my fav veggies in my apartament. You have done the difference for me.
Best Regards. (hope you understand all that i wrote)

Gosh why do people have to take everything so seriously and get into political arguments over everything??
This a great cookbook..end of. Regardless of the reasons behind it being written or whether you are a strict veggie or a meat lover. Really tasty recipes and many are very simple to do. I can't wait until I have some lovely home grown salad veg to use to make these recipes. Already love the leeks on toast, cauliflower and sweetcorn fritters were a huge hit and the tomatoes roasted with honey and garlic are absolutely delicious! I am always looking for new ways to use veg that might tempt my children (and husband), not always to replace meat based meals but to serve alongside them or just as a light snack.
So stop looking too deeply into this..it is a cookbook and a damn good one. Well done Hugh!!
Congratulations Hugh. Your body, the animals and the planet will thank you.
I hear what you say that you don't ever intend to become vegetarian. I was the same when I embarked on a lower meat diet. However, once I started feeling better on such a diet it was not only hard to go back to my old ways but also hard not to test how little animal products I needed. My own path went from omnivore to semi-vegetarian/pescetarian to vegetarian to vegan to low-fat vegan (mainly raw).
I have made a post on the forum to this effect. Unfortunately it has been locked due to a disagreement between a couple of members:
I find myself to be far more concerned now about a great many food issues as a result of HFW and his ceaseless battling with issues surrounding food production and consumption. to me, HFW is arguably now one of, if not the most, influential voices on food consumption and production. I for one consider it a privilege to be able to share in this growing movement for change in how we eat and how we think about what we eat
The veg thing is a real kicker - books ordered, when it gets here we're going to two veggie only days a week from the off, possibly more when we get our heads around it all properly. Like a lot of people we're in the "but where do we start" mode having been so used to seasoning our roasts and stews for so very, very long
Things have to change
Hugh, with you on the veg - we've found we're far more energised and feel healthier with a larger balance of veg and fruit in our diet. We regularly swap veg with friends who've grown a glut of particular veg. We also love meat and are very fortunate to have great local butchers and local abortoirs and are happy to pay more for quality. Incidently visiting Italy we found meat priced at a premium which premumably is better for the farmer and the consumers diet.
100% correct as ever, will comment more later, no time.
This is a big change for a big meat and fish eater like yourself Hugh and I can only think it's about selling a book, I have attended a few events at River Cottage and eaten great meat and fish in the canteen at Axminster, I hope you soon get back to your roots
Hi Hugh
Your new cook book sounds fantastic!
I agree that we need to eat more vegetables. Since moving out of the city my partner and I have put in a vegetable garden, and we both really enjoy both working in the garden, and eating the fresh produce - somehow it just tastes better than supermarket veges!
We've been watching River Cottage for a few years now. When my partner and I first got together, I was a strict vegetarian. Mainly because New Zealand has the same issues as the UK - factory farmed pigs, caged chickens... and it was difficult to tell whether what you were buying was free range or not - especially when it came to pork. In the last year however, there has been a major turn around. Footage of factory farmed pigs is shown on tv in the ad breaks, and people who had no knowledge of the condition these pigs were kept in before our now starting to look for pig welfare packaging. Your show also has a large following in New Zealand, and I really believe that you have made a big difference world wide.
Now that we live in Waikanae, I have gone back to eating meat. Our local butcher only stocks free range pork, and it is DELICIOUS! He also sells free range chicken, so we have a weekly shop and stock up on meat at the butcher instead of buying from the supermarket. I really hope that more butchers around the country will start to do the same - our butcher certainly has a lot of fans!!
Keep up the good work - and COME TO NEW ZEALAND!!!!
To some extent I agree with you Hugh, but be honest it's about selling a book at the end of the day!!
Great news about the book, Hugh! Our daughter Sara will be delighted, she s been a vegetarian for nearly two years, and is a fan of yours, she'll even be more of a fan now. We've been growing our own for many years now, some years more, some less, but this year has seen the best harvest for some time, and we will be adding three raised beds to the plot soon. I agree that eating less meat (I myself don't eat any 'red' meat) is healthy and good for us and the planet. Ordering the book now, looking forward to perusing it together with Sara.

Pilar takes the field. Photo: Michael Perez/AP Images
Way before that first kick-off of the NFL season, the Rookie Story emerges. Is he gonna start? Will he get cut? Is #Manzieling a thing?! But what about the other set of rookies standing in the tunnel, waiting for their cue to run out onto the field? The other professional athletes who also happen to be physician assistants, speech pathologists, and pre-med majors?
The NFL cheerleader is the real-life ultimate dream girl. The Kelly Kapowskis and Ali Larter-in-Varsity-Blue-s of the world. The Sunday afternoon eye candy that, lately, isn't taking any of the league's alleged precedent of crazily low (sometimes illegal!) standard wages bullshit anymore. After a visit to the City of Brotherly Love and questionable sports fans; after overhearing a kid eagerly albeit skeptically ask, "Are they real cheerleaders?"; and after seeing grown, adult men revert to their dirt-toeing 12-year-old selves when they walk by, I met her—or, fourteen of her. For two days, I embedded with the largest rookie class the NFL Philadelphia Eagles cheerleaders have recruited in years. Pompoms ahead.
10-ish a.m. On a muggy mid-summer Monday in Philadelphia at Lincoln Financial Field, the Eagles home stadium, it feels like the first day of school. Inside the staff entrance known as "Stadium Control," Barbara Zaun, director of the Philadelphia Eagles Cheerleaders, walks through the ground level staff-only area waving, stopping for a hug, exchanging good to see you!s.
Today will be a sort of dress rehearsal for that first September game day—it's an open training camp day for the players—and inside, the cheerleaders' locker room seems huge. A walk from front to back takes you past a bank of lockers painted signature midnight green and a brightly lit, mirror-lined bay for primping. Matching black mesh tote bags—each with a silver ruffled skirt, that says CHEERLEADER in block capital letters on one side, a bedazzled eagle head on the other—are scattered atop the room's countertops. In about an hour or so, when the entire cheerleading team, give or take a set of poms or two, it will seem much smaller. And tanner.
11:07 a.m. Upstairs, in a mid-level stadium concourse, a few cheerleaders are mingling with fans. (It's Military Appreciation Day, and all sorts of uniformed servicemen and women are here to be appreciated.) On one side a three-woman USO singing troupe belt out almost-comically patriotic tunes (think: Lee Greenwood's "Proud to Be an American") in army-themed pin-up-y getups. Six-foot-tall Swoop, the team mascot, posts up for photo-ops.
Nearby, 30-year-old Army sergeant Mark Flammer is here with his younger brother and stepdad. He's still grinning moments after snapping a photo with a few cheerleaders. They plan to send the photo to a friend who couldn't make it today, you know, to make him jealous. But that can't be reason enough for the smile that's still plastered on his face.
"It's kind of like awe," Flammer says, of meeting the ladies.
"And they seem to have a nice personality too," says his brother.
It's an exciting morning for the team's rookies, too. Jess, a physics and pre-med student at West Chester University who looks like a taller, slightly less baby-faced Selena Gomez, explains nearly punctuationlessly the day so far:
"Today? It's kind of been my favorite, really. All, our favorite. Our first like really big appearance, so it's really exciting, I mean, everything that's been going on is just completely exciting and we're all just like, everything that goes on, the rookies we're like, Oh my God, like pumped up to do this thing. People ask us sometimes what we're looking forward to the most in the season, and it's just like, we look forward to the next big thing in the season and then after that we're like, Okay the next big thing! And it's like there's not really one thing we're looking forward to, it's just the entire season is just full of so many things that we're so happy to be in and it's still very surreal for us, so most of us still wake up and go, Oh my God, we're an Eagles cheerleader, it's very exciting and just unbelievable. Really unbelievable."
11:24 a.m. Back in the locker room, there's skin everywhere. The space is now filled with 38 girls in the team's Vera Wang-designed uniform—the summer uniform, to be exact: bright white bra-like tops with midnight green and black accents, with matching itsy bitsy shorts, nude tights, black sequined sneakers, and sparkly earrings. The "a little revealing, but comfortable" uniform is about as close to naked as it can get on family-friendly Sunday television. Once empty countertops are now littered with cooling flat irons, overflowing makeup bags, and half-eaten plates of fruit.
The rustling sounds of 38 pairs of pompoms blend in with locker room chatter like, "Your makeup looks really good, by the way." It's dizzying. Everywhere you turn the prettiest girl you've ever seen is saying hi. Most sentences you overhear end in happy exclamation marks. And the smiling, so much smiling. Your cheeks ache just looking at it.
12:01 p.m. The Philadelphia Eagles Cheerleaders make their way onto the field. It's a pre-season Monday afternoon so the stadium is only a quarter full. But it's enough. Pompoms wave. In the stands, fans are screaming: "HI, LADIES!"
The Eagles pep band steps out and the first familiar notes of the fight song, traditionally played after every touchdown, begin to play.
Fly, Eagles fly, on the road to victory, (running in place with pompoms high in the air like they're crossing the finish line in first place!)
Fight Eagles fight, score a touchdown one-two-one-two-three. (Pom-covered jazz hands!)
Hit 'em low,
Hit 'em high,
And watch our Eagles fly. (Chests puffed, arms soaring, pompoms extended at full wingspan!)
Fly, Eagles fly, on the road to victory!
E-A-G-L-E-S, Eagles! (FIST! PUMPS! On the beat!)
It starts to drizzle as some stone-faced flag bearers take the field. Teetering with perfect pageant posture, the women bend their right leg and hold their left pompoms against their hips. They mannequin-freeze, mid-march, until the national anthem is over.
Someone in the stands screams: "AMERICA!"
12:18 p.m. The Eagles players are running around the field, presumably doing something worth watching, as the girls make their way back into the locker room.
In what feels like the blink of a silvery pom, Snow has transformed into the coolest girl at your office—stylish black and white patterned pants, a green top with an abstract black print, and a pair of low black heels. Her long auburn hair, styled in loose waves, has been swept up and tucked into a low bun. But the uniform's sparkly earrings—or as she describes them "the final cherry on the sundae"—are still there.
Next, she'll put on is the white doctor's jacket currently hanging in the front passenger seat of her light blue Scion in the stadium parking lot. As the training badge on the arm of her jacket indicates, Snow is a student at the Philadelphia College of Osteopathic Medicine where she's pursuing a master's in physician-assistant studies.
Snow moved to Philadelphia a little over two years ago following a year off after graduating from the University of California, San Diego in part to work as an EMT. It's here that she fell for football—"Moving to Philly, you get swept up in it—everyone's talking about it at work and you start following it and you're like, Wow, this is a big deal here"—and so, as a former pageant girl, figure skater, and Philadelphia Flyers ice dancer, she decided to attend the Eagles cheerleaders' open call a few months ago.
1:36 p.m. After 50 minutes of driving, Snow arrives at the Nouveau Cosmetic center in Newark, Delaware. The switch from pompoms to white-jacket-mode can be a difficult one sometimes, especially when there isn't much time in between, but she manages. "It's sort of something that you get used to after jugging different things for a long time," she says. "And I kinda like that constant amped up feeling. Being always on your toes."

SURAT : Next time, the traffic cops would think twice before lifting and towing the four and two wheelers parked outside the government offices, which lacks proper parking facilities in the city.
For the first time the traffic cops had to taste the public anger for lifting and towing four and two wheelers from outside the premise of regional transport office (RTO). The RTO is the busiest government office in the city as the residents throng the office at Majura Gate throughout the day for works related to driving license, vehicle registration etc.
From the past few months, the towing vans of the traffic department would arrive at RTO office and tow four-wheelers parked on the road due to the unavailability of parking space inside the premises.
On an average about 100 vehicles including cars and two wheelers were towed by the traffic cops on daily basis and that the residents were made to pay hefty fine charges.
On Friday evening, the daily visitors at RTO offices were frustrated with the daily harassment meted out on them by the traffic cops and decided to fight out the issue. When the towing van arrived at the RTO office and started towing the vehicles, people literally cornered the traffic cops and that many lay down in front of the towing vehicles to voice their protest.
The traffic cops were so frightened that they decided to release all the vehicles being towed by them.
Pankaj Shah, a visitor who was present on Friday said "RTO office doesn't have parking space. It is not the fault of the common citizen who visit the office for work . We are really frustrated with the daily harassment from the traffic department and decided to fight it out on Friday"
A senior RTO officer asking anonymity said "We have requested the city police department and the Surat Municipal Corporation (SMC) for providing parking facilities for the people coming to the RTO office. In many cases, the traffic cops have towed the brand new cars and two-wheelers brought for registration."

Olympus EVolt E-620 Review Summary
Olympus E-620 Assessment
The Olympus E-620 is not just a very good DSLR, it is an excellent value with an outstanding and complete feature set. Image noise is a good as we have seen from Four-Thirds cameras and very close to recent rivals using APS size sensors. This can be compensated easily by bright Olympus lenses which often have wider apertures than comparable lenses made for larger-sensor cameras.
The Olympus E-620 is very compact by DSLR-standards. It is the smallest DSLR to feature built-in stabilization. It may be that the price to pay is a cramped design and low battery-life, but that is easily an acceptable compromise for having such a feature set. The main downside would be a tiny viewfinder that makes manual focusing difficult.
Interestingly Olympus has nearly the same feature-set in 3 sizes, the E-620, the much larger E-3 and the compact non-DLSR Micro-Four-Thirds E-P1. If size matters, then you've got choice here. The E-3 features a viewfinder with 100% coverage and the E-P1 has no viewfinder at all.
Rivals from other makes include the Canon EOS Rebel XSi
Canon EOS Rebel XSi, the Pentax K200D and the Nikon D60
Nikon D60. The K200D is the only weather-sealed camera here with a relatively large viewfinder and built-in stabilization. The XSi and D60 lack image-stabilization but show very low noise at high-ISO. The XSi also features the best live-view implementation out there.
Quite low image noise for Four-Thirds system | Poor auto-white-balance in artificial light |
Good dynamic range | Very small viewfinder |
Excellent metering, very resistant to blow-out | Questionable placement of controls |
Reliable auto focus | Complicated menu system |
Fast and responsive | LCD too reflective |
Effective stabilization | Short battery life |
Good dust reduction | |
Highly customizable | |

My big question is whether or not it will be necessary to buy tickets within a few days of the on-sale date. Do we think this comes close to selling out? USA/Mexico had 65,000ish people I think. I just wonder if its worth it to buy face value tickets or see if it fails to sell out and I can save a little money by going the Stubhub route. It works for football games... |

Seriously though what's the Kenpom line? I'm curious. A note that Kenpom has expected an average margin of victory of 2.2 (we were supposed to lose Florida by 5, everything else was a predicted close win except 13 against SDSU), and our actual margin of victory has been 13.4. So I'd like to know the Kenpom line so I can add 11.2 to it. I know that is not how things work at all but I don't care we're playing in the National Championship eeeeeeeee EDIT: Per Ace on Twitter, Louisville by 5. |

Chances are they're too highly ranked to really make a difference on our rank. I guess technically they could fall out and everyone might get bumped up, but, I think its also reasonable (based on how they voted for Minnesota last week) that, any bump we get is decreased by voters suddenly putting West Virginia in the top 20. |

Sure, we're probably out of the running for the regular season conference title, but, if we can get hot right now, get a first round bye, we can definitely win a game in Detroit in March, which should get us into the NCAA tournament, if not two, which WILL get us into the NCAA tournament. |

We'll be ranked after we beat Oakland. I know that's a couple weeks off, but, if we can pick up a convincing win against a decent team like, them, we'll be ranked. As far as next week's poll goes, our only hope is killing EMU, and hoping #23 Davidson loses to a solid West Virginia team in Morgantown, and #20 Ohio State loses to an undefeated Butler in Columbus. It would also help if Dayton lost at Creighton, and, while its unlikely, South Carolina State upset Clemson at home. It's also not unreasonable that BYU loses to Boise State and/or Portland. As far as the rest of the bottom 5 and the teams that separate us from polls, I can't see Baylor, Marquette, Kansas, or Miami (FL) losing. |

UPDATE: Sheriff's detective recovers stolen flagsMonday, July 7th, 2014 Issue 28, Volume 18.
"I was patrolling Main Ave. at about 2 a.m. on the morning of July 5 when I saw three juveniles (approx. age 17) walking down the street with the flags," said Laibach. "One was wearing a flag as a cape." When the detective began pursuing the teens, they dropped the flags near Main and Fig and began to run. "I wasn't able to apprehend the suspects, but I did recover the flags," Laibach said. Laibach did not know who to return the flags to because no report had been filed at the time. The detective called the Village News today (Tues., July 8) and found out that the VFW had reported the theft to the newspaper. He promptly delivered the flags to the newspaper office where the VFW could pick them up. --- (previous version) Three American Flags stolen, mounting Advertisement Debbie Ramsey Managing Editor According to members of Fallbrook Veteran of Foreign Wars Post 1924, over the 4th of July weekend, three American flags were stolen and the related mounting hardware destroyed on three posts in the downtown area. The flags are posted in the downtown area all along Main Ave. on street lamp posts for patriotic holidays and special occasions such as the 9/11 remembrance. The VFW said someone desecrated the flags and "showed their disregard for our national symbol." One member said, "Our Flag is a symbol for which countless people have paid with their lives, their bodies, and their psyches to secure our way of life. The perpetrators of this act, if found, should be required to work in the Wounded Warriors, or the VA Hospital wards to see the price paid by volunteers that protect this country, and our way of life, which is symbolized by this Flag." 23 comments
This is very sad to hear not only because of what the flag stands for but because a lot of work goes into displaying the flags along main street.
Oh my....this couldn't have been done by our local home boys....maybe they thought it should have been the mexican flag put up in their neighborhood. Yup...let them keep coming and be sure to welcome them with open arms...right!
Kids being Kids. Let them be. In other news water is wet!
Of course this is going to happen. We are letting thousands and thousands of illegals into our country being given rides, flights, hotel rooms, dining out, hospital visits, you name it, on our dime. We do not know one thing about any of them and guaranteed there are plenty of murderers, rapists, drug manufacturers, transporters, human traffic'ing along with drug trafficing, etc. etc. OUR GOVERNMENT is allowing them to just walk right in and do whatever they want, where they want, an open ticket and that is exactly what they are going to do. Its a wonder they did not put up their own Countries flags in place of the ours they took down. Soon enough their countries will be flying. Very sad times, the worst in the USA that I have ever seen and am sick that my children and my children will have even worse to look forward to after my family worked so hard supporting and building this nation for 6 Generations.
OK..... where are the cameras? You have video SOMEWHERE on this - I say too find the culprits and make an example out of their (mis) behavior. The VFW works hard too remind the citizens of their patriotic responsibilities as an American. I truly disagree with the writer of LET THE KIDS BE KIDS. The problem here is that the 'kids' have not had their butts kicked by their fathers - oh..... absent fathers, I should say.
KH, Thats fine let kids be kids as my son has been serving in AGF for the past 9 months. Let it be know he is also a VFW member, and is not happy as to what has taken place.
yes I agree Grandma - I'm a legal immigrant and whether this was an act by a local liberal or an illegal this country is in big trouble - coming form Germany and not having a lot of recollection of the war bt knwo what my relatives have experience this is the beginnign unless we follow our constitution we will loose this country and so much for my parents coming over here to bein hope that we will have a better life. I would be better off now in the old country and we need to start becoming conservative and maybe even practicing isloationism !
wait, wait, wait, first of all i don't remember reading anything in this article that said anything about illegals taking down the flags? VILLAGE NEWS COMMENTS: You are correct. There was no mention of any particular individual/s that are suspects. The suspects are unknown. No descriptions available. D. Ramsey
I can't believe these comments related to illegals. What makes anyone so sure it is illegals? Don't turn this into something it's not. Things get stolen. Replace them and let's get on with life.
The only people that hang out in that area are the known gang bangers and illegals. Its been documented numerous times of the attacks on pedestrians and the protests against the United States. The VN has reported on these. If you hear hoofbeats, its a a horse. Don't ignore! Thanks you veterans for all you do!
Well....Welcome to the "Land of the Free" and everything Belongs to me attitude. Also Don't forget to press 1 for English.
Probably the same Flags That the Jerks were Burning In Murrieta the other day Shame on these People.
I'm not sure who is more ignorant, those who commit these petty crimes, or the people that accuse a certain group of people, without evidence, because of their status. 'Nuff said!
First 2 scarecrows then 3 flags! What has this world come to?
The American Flag is the highest symbol of freedom, sacrafice, pride & unity. To treat the flag in a negative manner is a disgrace - not to mention against the law. "Kids being kids, let them be" is a statment of ignorance (I'm guessing spoken by someone who doesn't have any sense of respect or responsibility). Vandalism is vandalism - and our community won't stand for it! And since many of us are in, or have family members who are in the military, an act of vandalism such as this hurts to the bone. This is unacceptable and as a community we need to find the low-life vandals and bring them to justice, no matter what their ethnicity is.
Whoever did this, the action should be condemned. I disagree with KH #3. "Kids" need to be taught that this kind of thing is not acceptable.
It is stupid to assume every illegal immigrant is from Mexico just like it would be stupid to assume every asian from China. It is even stupider to assume that because these flags are missing, that it is was done by illegal immigrants.
Should I put my 2 cents and mention the WHITE BOYS that stole my bike? Get over it, Illegals are here to stay, so get use to it.
Are the Main Ave American flags made in People's Republic of China?
Most people have no concept of flag etiquette. They fly the flag 24/7 with no light on it at night and use it as house decoration. It is supposed to be flown with reverence on national holidays and taken down at sunset. When hung on a wall or from a ceiling, the star field should always be on the upper left. The flag is not supposed to be used for business advertising. Places that do that don't get my business. I've had it with this shallow faux patriotism. It's all too much.
@KH....THAT attitude is why kids are like they are today.
Flags are not made in china, they are made in the USA.
No where in the article is said that it was Hispanic, Mexican race doing it, stop blaming Mexicans for every bad thing that happens in town, or the US, and to the person that said Main St is where the " homeboys " hangout your out of the subject, Main St is a main street, "homeboys" as you called them don't hang out in main streets, they find hidden places to hang out at so get your facts right. Oh and we don't mind you guys celebrations, we actually enjoy them as well, unlike you guys getting all butthurt when you see a Mexican FLag around. Haha

Writing Workshop: The Essential GuideIs the writing workshop the only way to teach writing? No. There are a variety of approaches or programs, but none of them matches the writing workshop when it comes to growing strong writers. That's why, despite the pressures of testing, the writing workshop has endured and even flourished in thousands of schools across the country. Today we face a time when as many as ten million new teachers are entering the profession. It is for these teachers, and others who are unfamiliar with writing workshop, that Ralph Fletcher and JoAnn Portalupi wrote this book - as a way to introduce and explain the writing workshop . . . to reveal what a potent tool the writing workshop can be for empowering young writers. Above all Writing Workshop is a practical book, providing everything a teacher needs to get the writing workshop up and running. In clear language, Fletcher and Portalupi explain the simple principles that underlie the writing workshop and explore the major components that make it work. Each chapter addresses an essential element, then suggests five or six specific things a teacher can do to implement the idea under discussion. There's also a separate chapter entitled "What About Skills," which shows how to effectively teach skills in the context of writing. The book closes with practical forms in the appendixes to ensure that the workshop runs smoothly. Fletcher and Portalupi's twenty-plus years working with teachers have convinced them that there is no better way to teach writing. This important book is the culmination of all their years of effort, a synthesis of their best thinking on the subject. |

Is "Display Plot Styles" checked in the Page Setup? If so, uncheck it.
Box is not checked.
Occurring in model or paper space or both??
Change layer setting. Seems to have worked.
Hi - Can you explain how you solved this issue in more detail? I'm having the same problem- layers show up as gray in both model and paper view but colors are correct in the properties pane.
Thank you for this post!! I had the same problem and the Display Plot Styles did not help.
I dont know what the solution was for the original poster, but
If you have been playing with maps and data connect, this may help.
Type in command line: mapwspace
Task Pane On/Off <on>: hit enter to accept on
a task pane bar will load, you need to expand it by clicking on it (looks similar to prospector or panaroma bar).
Click on Display Manager tab, make sure Default is unchecked.
Solution also found here.....
Hope this helps!

Bacon & Brussels Pizza
Bacon & Brussels Pizza
Yield: 4 servings
- Nonstick cooking spray
- 12 ounces brussels sprouts, stems removed, halved (larger ones quartered)
- Kosher salt and ground black pepper, to taste
- 1 tablespoon balsamic glaze
- 1 tablespoon sriracha
- 5 slices hardwood smoked bacon, cut crosswise into 1/2-inch pieces
- 1/2 red onion, thinly sliced
- 1 ball of pizza dough, store-bought or homemade
- Cornmeal (optional)
- 3/4 cup pizza sauce
- 3 large button mushrooms, thinly sliced
- 1/2 cup shaved Parmesan cheese
- Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. Spray rimmed baking pan with cooking spray. Place brussels sprouts on pan; lightly spray with cooking spray. Sprinkle with salt and pepper. Roast until sprouts are very brown, about 20 minutes, stirring occasionally. While still warm, transfer sprouts to bowl. Add balsamic glaze and sriracha; toss until well combined.
- Meanwhile, cook bacon in large skillet over medium-high heat 6 to 8 minutes or until crispy. With slotted spoon, transfer bacon to paper-towel lined plate. Reduce heat to medium. Add onion; cook 10 to 15 minutes or until deeply caramelized, stirring frequently.
- Increase oven to 450 degrees F. Press pizza dough into large circle on pizza stone or pan (spray with cooking spray or sprinkle with cornmeal first if you're worried about dough sticking). Bake 10 minutes or until light golden brown and almost cooked through.
- Remove crust from oven. Spread with pizza sauce, then top with mushrooms, cheese, brussels sprouts, bacon and caramelized onion. Bake 5 to 7 minutes longer, or until crust is cooked through and toppings are hot.

15 Responses to "Bacon & Brussels Pizza"
Never had brussel sprouts on pizza before, I love them and think it's a fabulous idea, and of course bacon is always good on anything. Sounds amazing.
Thank you for the comments. You can put brussels sprouts and bacon with anything.
Brussels sprouts are my favorite vegetable too. They're great steamed, roasted, sauteed, even raw. I would definitely enjoy this pizza!
I have to say I have not really eaten brussels sprouts raw . . . But, I imagine they would lend a nice touch to a dish in thinly sliced form.
Jeff you make good pizza! I love brussels sprouts on top of my pizza. That extra crisp, crunchy topping is just what pizza called for.
Thanks for the feedback. I am glad you enjoy my pizzas – I have plenty of delicious ideas on the way.
Good way to eat your brussel sprouts, I have to say I have only been a fan in my latter years but with bacon, oh ya!!!
It is strange . . . I liked brussels sprouts when I was a kid. Maybe it is because my mom didn't force me to eat them in order to get dessert.
Never would have thought of this combination for a topping before, but now that I've heard about it… I have to try it!
Thank you for the feedback. So glad to have opened your mind up to the world of strange and awesome pizza toppings.
Love the unique flavours in this tasty pizza! Thanks for sharing the recipe…
No thanks necessary. For me, pizza is a passion . . . Only made better by using strange ingredients that I love.
We have a weekly Pizza Night (Fridays) in our house, and I'm always looking for new topping combinations. We're *definitely* going to have to give this one a try!
Thanks so much, Michelle. I hope you enjoy it!
I'll let you know if/when we try it!

RIP Frank Jobe, 'The Grand Budapest Hotel', marathon heat and more
What went wrong for the Lakers last night?
ROBYN BECK/AFP/Getty Images
Los Angeles Lakers Pau Gasol (R) sits on the bench with his teammates in the fourth quarter against the Los Angeles Lakers March 6, 2014 at Staples Center in Los Angeles, California. The Clippers defeated the Lakers 142-94.
It was a historic night at the Staples Center last night, but not in a good way. The Clippers absolutely destroyed the Lakers. The Clippers beat the Lakers 142-94, a 48 point loss the worst in Lakers franchise history. That's going back to 1949 when they were in Minneapolis.
The game didn't start out so poorly, so when did things go wrong?

Colin Cooper blasted his Hartlepool squad for failing to heed his words as they ended their season with a 2-0 defeat against Exeter.
The Grecians jumped over Pools in the Sky Bet League Two standings with victory, achieved with first-half goals from Jimmy Keohane and David Wheeler.
Pools' only chance to get something came with a Jack Compton penalty but that was saved in the 45th minute.
"Too many players had an end-of-season mentality," fumed Cooper.
"All the right things were said before the game, the right messages, but nothing happened.
"Everyone can say things, but it's about actions and too many disappointed me with their actions.
"It's a home game, in front of our own fans, and I didn't see enough energy or excitement from our players.
"We allowed Exeter time and space and it let them play. We were miles off it, miles off.
"It's frustrating to end the season in this way. As I said the right words were spoken, but not carried out.
"To finish on that makes me hugely frustrated."

Indiana Jones and the Ill-Thought Out Escape
Location: Mojave Wasteland, South of Goodsprings
From the town of Goodsprings make your way to the southeast along the road. As you're going you will see a refrigerator lying a short ways off of the road, noticeable by the white of the device on the browns of the Wasteland. Head on over to investigate the icebox where you will find a unique hat, the Suave Gambler Hat, alongside a curled up skeleton that was once an intrepid adventurer.
For those who are blissfully unaware, this is a reference to the infamous refrigerator scene where Indiana Jones hides inside of a lead-lined refrigerator to escape a nuclear bomb. As one of the silliest stunts in all of Hollywood history (or at least in a non-straight-to-DVD movie) this is more than likely what would have actually occurred had our good doctor tried pulling such a silly stunt in real life.
Location: Random
While out wandering the Mojave Wasteland you can eventually speak to Rex to start up this little quest. Whether it is available or not has little to do with how long you've had your companion but it more related to how long you've played the game. Regardless when you talk to the Cyborg puppy he will respond with a somewhat confused "Aroo?" instead of his usual barks which leads into a rather humorous exchange.
Once you actually figure out what the problem is, namely that dumbass Jimmy being stuck in a well, a map marker is placed near the northeastern part of the map. Making your way over there you will find a well, appropriately named Jimmy's Well, in front of Field's Shack. Climb down inside to find a mole rat and dead Jimmy. The main reward here is the Abilene LE BB Gun and a good laugh at this old reference.

For one of the most random, and amusing, of the Wild Wasteland encounters you're going to really have to go out of your way. This encounter only happens in Freeside, the exterior part of New Vegas, when you're coming out of a building here. You have to find Cerulean Robotics, a large grey building that houses a bunch of stuff for you to loot and nothing more. Upon entering and then leaving the building you will meet these ladies.
Other than laugh factor, and to be totally goddamn random, there's no benefit to this encounter. The three ladies are weak, die rather easily and don't give you too much for the little bit of trouble they cause.
No More One Liners!
Location: New Vegas, Ultra-Lux
This is a fairly minor Wild Wasteland event, simply changing the appearance of one of the dead bodies you can find during the "Behind the Beef" quest in New Vegas' Ultra-Lux casino. During the course of completing this quest you will be sent to look at the Ultra-Lux Hotel room of an investigator who was looking into the disappearance of a guest of the Ultra-Lux. Marjorie tells you to speak to Mortimer at the front desk about the investigator who should still be at the hotel room.
Above: Well I guess he's… off the case.
After speaking to Mortimer and getting the key to the room head on up there to find the dead man lying in front of the bed. The investigator, named Crusoe, is very obviously a reference to the CSI front man David Caruso. The red hair, the suit and the cheesy glasses all paint the picture that our friend fared no better in the video game world than he did in the world of television.
Above: Yeeeeaaah!
Owen and Beru
Location: Nipton
Time for another rather random movie reference. Make your way to the destroyed town of Nipton and head for the eastern entrance to the town. From the Nipton sign right near the burning pile of debris head to your north, past the first house to find a pair of bodies lying on the ground that have been scorched to the bone.
If you haven't already gotten it this is a reference to Luke Skywalker's Uncle Owen and Aunt Beru. The two relatives get sizzled by some Imperial Stormtroopers who are on Tatooine looking for R2-D2 and C-3P0.
