I'm looking for a nice salad/dressing recipe that will go with Lasagna? Any suggestions/recipes? TIA! |
Follow-Up Postings:
I prefer vinaigrette type dressing with most pasta dishes. I often will include a few Tbsp of grated Parmesan in the dressing to pick up that nice cheese flavor, but if you prefer a plainer dressing, this is a nice basic version: INGREDIENTS: PREPARATION: |
LEMON SPINACH SALAD ˝ lb. sliced mushrooms Wash mushrooms and combine with spinach. Chill. Mix oil, lemon juice, salt, cheese and garlic. Chop up egg and sprinkle over salad. Add lemon rind to salad and grind pepper on top. Pour dressing over salad right before serving and toss. Note: Best if dressing is made about an hour ahead of time and garlic pieces removed before pouring on salad. Crumbled bacon pieces can be added if desired. |
i agree with alexa's take on things and can tell you that we've enjoyed ruthanna's recipe (minus the egg for us) many times. also--i don't have it at hand right now, but i hope someone will post MQ's fennel and mushroom salad--i think that goes great with pasta or beef recipes...here's one from a penpal that we also like a whole lot-- Jo's Greens and Prosciutto Salad Mix together, then cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate: Thinly slice a red onion and pour over it some red or white wine vinegar. Let it stand for 30 minutes and then drain it. Into a ˝ c of olive oil, slowly cook 4 cloves of garlic that has been chopped into Ľ" dice. Remove garlic and increase the heat and add Ľ C balsamic vinegar and 2 T red wine vinegar. Once it boils, add 2 T brown sugar and heat for another minute. Add the garlic back in with a little salt and pepper. Pour over the salad greens. |
This is a salad dressing I got from an Italian friend -- very simple but terrific on mixed greens. You'll have to work on the lemon juice to olive oil ratio to suit your taste. In bottom of large salad bowl, mix high quality olive oil with fresh lemon juice -- I like it about 50/50. Add a pinch of sugar, and salt and pepper as desired. Whisk well, put salad greens on top of dressing, toss to mix. I make about 2 T. dressing per salad serving. Can add herbs, finely grated hard cheese. Can change the lemon juice to balsamic vinegar. Salad can be simple greens or add either veggies of choice and olives, or dried or fresh fruit and nuts. It's by far my favorite dressing. Enjoy! |
Carol Ann's friend got it right: Simple is best with lasagna. I sprinkle extra virgin olive oil, red wine vinegar and garlic salt over lettuce, toss together. If I have tomatoes, olives, onions in the house, which I usually do, I add them. No need to whisk or marinate at all. Just sprinkle, toss and serve. |

They were all trying to comfort the 48-year-old Australian, who just days before had been shocked to learn she had invasive breast cancer. "You'll be fine, my love," Megan remembers her husband saying. Dianne just kept patting her right arm, murmuring that everything would be okay. But Gary Cushner held on to Megan's right hand all the way into the pre-op room--he was the very last to leave her side--and said one thing, and one thing only. "Don't worry, cutie pie," he told her, "you're covered. Now just concentrate on getting well."
Those words would drive the course of Megan Jones's life for months to come.
"If he hadn't said that, you see," Megan says, nervously pulling on the ends of the blond wig that unartfully hides the effects of chemotherapy, "I would've gone back to Australia. They have a different system for covering medicine and hospitalization. I would've been covered there for sure."
But because Gary Cushner, the man from whom she'd bought her health-insurance policy, assured his friend up until the last possible moment that she was covered, Megan went ahead with the surgery here. "They were telling her she didn't have much time to do it," Warren Jones says. "There wasn't a lot of time to lounge about."
"I had to know then if I was covered," Megan adds. "I kept asking Gary and asking Gary. I knew it was a serious diagnosis made shortly after the policy went into effect. I knew it might cause trouble, so I asked him directly. I said, `Gary, am I covered?' And he said, `Yes.'
Six months later, when Megan Jones sued friend and agent Gary Cushner, American Medical Security and United Wisconsin Life Insurance Company--the two corporations that underwrote and administered the insurance policy--no one disputed that Cushner had uttered those words. But despite the agent's assurances, AMS refused to cover Megan Jones's double mastectomy or any of the treatments that followed.
The company wouldn't pay, it said, because Megan Jones had a pre-existing condition.
Warren and Megan Jones came to Colorado four years ago. The Joneses had just sold their lucrative accounting business back in Canberra, Australia, and planned to use the proceeds to start up a coffee-bean business called Koala Bear. (They've since sold the franchise and taken accounting jobs.) They bought a small ranch house in Highlands Ranch and later, when Warren's "mum" prepared to move in with them, a larger house in the same development.
Megan Jones met Dianne Cushner in 1992, when the Joneses leased a car from Dianne's Englewood company. Dianne introduced the couple to her husband, an insurance agent, and the four quickly became friends, getting together for weekly dinner parties and movies, and even renting adjoining condominiums in Silvercreek that Thanksgiving so they could celebrate together.
Given how close the families became, it was only natural that the Joneses would consult Gary when they had questions about insurance. When the family first moved to this country, they'd applied for health insurance with a plan called Golden Rule. While the plan accepted Megan and her son, Christopher, it had declined coverage to Warren Jones because of a heart condition. In May 1994 the family switched to a Texas-based indemnity plan that would insure Warren, too. (Megan also kept her Golden Rule policy through June.)
But when Megan visited her regular physician, Linda Williams, on September 13, 1994, she was surprised to find that the Texas company didn't cover routine office visits. "I had just assumed the Texas plan was like Golden Rule," she says. "So I got back to the office and called Warren, and he said he'd call Gary."
Gary suggested Warren drop off a copy of the family's plan so that he could review it. "I brought it round the next day," Warren testified in court.
After that review, the Joneses say, not only did Cushner advise them that their plan was "no good," he recommended a better plan through AMS, a Wisconsin-based company. "He didn't tell us he was an agent for AMS," Megan says. "He just told us it was a good plan."
On September 16, 1994, Megan says, Gary Cushner called her at work and asked her to lunch so that she could sign the application. "I said to him, `But I haven't filled it out,'" she testified. "He said, `I filled it out.' I asked him how could he have filled it out, and he said, `I got the information from your application from Texas Life.' And I said, `You're very clever.'"
Under AMS, the monthly premium for all three members of the Jones family was $413. Gary Cushner arranged for the money to be automatically deducted from the Joneses' checking account.
The application was quickly accepted by AMS and its underwriter, United Wisconsin Life Insurance Company. The policy went into effect on October 1, 1994.
On October 20 Megan Jones was diagnosed with breast cancer.
No one was more shocked than she. After all, just eight months before, Megan had received what she thought were clinical assurances that she didn't have breast cancer. At the time, Megan had noticed "dimpling" on one of her breasts, and although she assumed it was due to some irregularity with her fourteen-year-old silicone implants, she expressed concern to Dr. Williams. The physician arranged for Megan to undergo a mammography and ultrasound testing. An April 11, 1994, letter to Jones contained the findings: "The results of your recent mammogram indicate no suspicion of breast cancer."

Spinal Decompression Therapy
In this article
If you have lasting back pain and other related symptoms, you know how disruptive to your life it can be. You may be unable to think of little else except finding relief. Some people turn to spinal decompression therapy -- either surgical or nonsurgical. Here's what you need to know to help decide whether it might be right for you.
What Is Nonsurgical Spinal Decompression?
Nonsurgical spinal decompression is a type of motorized traction that may help relieve back pain. Spinal decompression works by gently stretching the spine. That changes the force and position of the spine. This will take pressure off the spinal disks, which are gel-like cushions between the bones in your spine.
Proponents of this treatment say that over time, negative pressure from this therapy may cause bulging or herniated disks to retract. That can take pressure off the nerves and other structures in your spine. This in turn, helps promote movement of water, oxygen, and nutrient-rich fluids into the disks so they can heal.
Doctors have used nonsurgical spinal decompression in an attempt to treat:
- Back or neck pain or sciatica, which is pain, weakness, or tingling that extends down the leg
- Bulging or herniated disks or degenerative disk disease
- Worn spinal joints (called posterior facet syndrome)
- Injured or diseased spinal nerve roots (called radiculopathy)
More research is needed to establish the safety and effectiveness of nonsurgical spinal decompression. To know how effective it really is, researchers need to compare spinal decompression with other less expensive alternatives to surgery. These include:
- Nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs)
- Physical therapy
- Exercise
- Limited rest
- Steroid injections
- Bracing
- Chiropractic
- Acupuncture
How Is Nonsurgical Spinal Decompression Done?
You are fully clothed during spinal decompression therapy. The doctor fits you with a harness around your pelvis and another around your trunk. You either lie face down or face up on a computer-controlled table. A doctor operates the computer, customizing treatment to your specific needs.
Treatment may last 30 to 45 minutes and you may require 20 to 28 treatments over five to seven weeks. Before or after therapy, you may have other types of treatment, such as:
- Electrical stimulation (electric current that causes certain muscles to contract)
- Ultrasound (the use of sound waves to generate heat and promote healing)
- Heat or cold therapy

Though board-certified plastic surgeon Dr. Thomas Jeneby specializes in transforming patients' appearances, his own face may look very familiar. The diplomate of the American Board of Plastic Surgery has shared his extensive knowledge of both adult and pediatric plastic-surgery procedures with stations such as ABC News and KENS 5, and he was named one of the best area plastic surgeons by S.A. Scene. Dr. Jeneby also offers expertise as a national trainer on topics such as Lipotherme, SmartLipo body sculpting, and DOT therapy laser skin resurfacing.
At the equally acclaimed Plastic & Cosmetic Center, Dr. Jeneby and his staff perform surgical and noninvasive procedures ranging from rhinoplasties to SmoothShapes laser cellulite treatments. The facility houses a convenient onsite lab for blood draws and a concierge room where family members can watch television or their own DVDs from home. Clients can head upstairs to Spa Black to be treated with lasers that remove unwanted hair, banish pigmented lesions, or read barcode versions of Shakespeare.
Ideal Facial Plastic & Laser Surgery's offices, associated with Straka & Mcquone, Inc., are all designed to make patients feel comfortable and safe. Yale graduate and board-certified surgeon Dr. Paul Leong performs all facial treatments, except for laser hair removal, which is done by a trained technician and supervised by Leong. Each option includes a full, personal consultation with Dr. Leong to discuss treatment options and design individualized plans. Laser hair removal works over six sessions to gradually reduce hair growth, and is considerably less painful than getting dipped in hot wax and coated in feathers. The sessions may be used for underarms or any small areas—upper lip, chin, fingers, toes, or ears—but may be upgraded to a medium-sized area (such as bikini line) for an additional $59 per treatment.
Dr. Dennis Hurwitz and the team of skinsmiths at Hurwitz Center for Rejuvenation rewind face clocks to an earlier time with a dizzying array of skin-revitalizing treatments. During the doctor-supervised microdermabrasion treatment, a steady-handed aesthetician removes the outermost layer of skin, revealing a face that's as brilliant as a glow-in-the-dark copy of The Republic. The exfoliating technology can stimulate collagen production, fade fine lines and scars, even out skin tone, and give faces enough confidence to play hide-and-seek with the Invisible Man. Meanwhile, 20 units of Botox injected into the facial muscles behind crow's-feet or frown lines can calm nerve impulses, relaxing wrinkles and leaving faces smooth and sleek.
When Dr. John Neary isn't editing textbooks, publishing articles, or lecturing worldwide, he's performing restorative oral procedures at his medical center. He and fellow dental surgeon Dr. Matthew Pavlick helm a range of surgical operations, from corrective jaw surgery to wisdom-teeth removal to stuck-on wax-lip removal. The surgery center also houses a cosmetic branch, where doctors perform rhinoplasties, face lifts, and Botox injections as well as laser hair-removal and other non-invasive procedures.
During his three decades of dental experience, which included a six-year stint as a general dental officer for the United States Air Force, Dr. John N. Santin has seen a lot of smiles. And from both of his Akron Area Oral, Maxillofacial & Facial Cosmetic Surgery Center offices, Dr. Santin continues to gaze at pearly whites, keeping teeth healthy and bright with surgical and cosmetic dentistry services including corrective jaw surgery, wisdom-teeth extractions, and bone grafting. But teeth aren't the only thing on Dr. Santin's mind. He also provides his patients with a range of cosmetic treatments, from rhinoplasty and facial implants to Botox injections and chemical peels. The offices even come equipped with advanced ActiveFX and DeepFX fractional lasers, which are designed to blast away layers of sun damage, dead skin cells, and temporary tattoos that seeped down into the dermal layer.
At Legacy Plastic Surgeons, Drs. James Lehman and M. Devi Prasad Tantri combine more than half a century of medical and cosmetic experience. With more than 70 published articles under his belt, Dr. James Lehman is well versed in all areas of cosmetic plastic surgery, specializing in breast reduction, breast implants, and abdominoplasty. His counterpart, Dr. M. Devi Prasad Tantri, boasts more than 25 years of medical experience, and demonstrates special proficiency in hand surgery, breast reduction, and the removal of cancers from the head and neck.
Together, the doctors lead a team of skilled clinicians—many of whom have served with the doctors for more than 10 years—who revamp and beautify faces with noninvasive techniques such as microdermabrasion, facial peels, and Botox injections. Before administering any procedures or treatments, doctors consult with patients to understand their subjects' expectations and tolerance for witty knock-knock jokes.

"Yummmmmmm! This is quite possibly the best Balsamic Dressing ever. Served over salad with mixed greens, tomatoes, dried cranberries and goat cheese. Delish!"
"Fantastic Beth! I didn't have smoked salt so I brushed liquid smoke on the ribs and sprinkled with sea salt. WONDERFUL! Thank you! Update: Found Hickory Smoked Salt on-line and it is awesome on the ribs."
"This was so good Papa D! Made as directed. Served over mashed potatoes with a side of horseradish cream sauce. Delicious!! Thank you!"
"Wonderful! The key is to caramelize the onions first (took mine about 20 minutes), then add garlic right before you add the kale. The balsamic vinegar really adds to the dish so don't skip it! Thanks Daphne!"

HISTORY: This collection was gathered from the general collections of the Mercantile Library almost in its entirety and bears witness to the fact that the Library collected many items printed in the Confederacy as the war wore on. The Library itself was an intellectual battlefield during the Civil War in a border state, and many of these works were probably collected as a result of its having a strong Southern sympathizer as its head librarian through 1862; the fact that the collection is relatively small undoubtedly indicates the suppression of similar items after this date by a strong Unionist board of directors and its hand-picked head librarian. Additional items are occasionally added to this collection.
SCOPE: Material printed in the American Confederacy, 1861-1865, mostly laws of the secessionist legislatures, but including literary pieces, medical and scientific works, and other topical tracts.
HOLDINGS: Approximately 50 items.
ACCESS: The collection, M-123, is catalogued, and special files of the holdings exist on site. Portions of the collection may be photocopied, digitally scanned or photographed, depending on condition.

So I get rid of the nerdy kids in the park, one of them drops the red paint, I point with the cursor to pick it up, Hector obeys but after he's done the game freezes. When I re-load the game the kids are dancing their rave, but the paint is gone from my inventory! And because of the shoddy saving system I'm forced to restart all over again. It's frustrating, especially since this is a good game otherwise, and it's a shame that because of this bug I've stopped playing.
Anyone else ran into this nasty?

Item Description
Folks here is a Stax product that I have had for 30+ years. I have NO idea why I bought it. I do not remember owning Stax Ear Speakers at any time. It looks in perfect condition and I have kept it wrapped up in a box, why?, I do not know. Before I throw it away and create more landfill unnecessarily, if there is someone out there that could use it, or more importantly knows how to use it, you are welcome to it. You basically would pay shipping, the $2 transaction fee and the $4 ad fee, if it works. I have gone to the Stax website, so I know that these were made starting in 1979, and I must have bought it, not too long thereafter. Any questions, or answers, please feel free to email me. Thanks, Roy

"I used this recipe to make a copy cat of the Cheesecake Factory's White chocolate raspberry cheesecake... Instead of graham crackers I used 20 oreos (filling removed) the first time. This time around I wanted to try a thicker crust so I crushed 30. White chocolate chips on top of the crust then layered thinned, seedless rasp. preserves with this ..."
"Great recipe, however, the fillings made enough for 3 cakes (I used 2 9'' rounds).. The strawberry glaze was a bit overpowering, so the second time around I added more strawberries and I cut the top layer of cake in two, so that I had two layers of filling.. it made for a much more decadent treat! In two days, family and friends devoured two cake..."

SYNOPSIS: Five recent college grads go for one last vacation in the woods during the summer of 1984 and one of them is infected with a mad scientist's synthetic rabies virus. REVIEW: One of the most intriguing areas of horror film making is the low budget horror film.

I'm a descendant of Nicholas and Frances (Lignon) Gerard. My great grandmother, Martha Frances (Gerard) Omanson, was Charles Lewis Gerard's daughter. Charles is a son of Nicholas & Frances. I've had the family history info for years but never got into research until just last week. We're having a Cousin's Reunion on my grandmother's side next summer but because I have more Gerard info than Omanson, my search has led me in the Gerard direction for now. They had 9 children: Mina R. (Briggs) of Osceola, Mary M., Martha Frances Gerard (married to Charles Frederick Omanson and my great grandparents) who lived in Elmira, IL, Caroline A. (Aunt Carrie), Sylvia Eden (Aunt Ellen), Anna L. Gerard (married to a Trent), Charles N., James Isaac and Edith M. Gerard (married to an Imes). I would love to be in touch with those who have info so we can make any corrections and compare notes. I have some photos and some I'm sorry to say I don't have names for. I'm on My Heritage, having just started. I'm originally from IL and have visited Bradford (for family reunions) many times. I'm now living in Lapeer, MI (since 2001 when my husband and I retired). I would be happy to compare notes. Probably private e-mails would work best for me but if you'd prefer to contact via this board, that's fine, too. Notify Administrator about this message?

Tennessee Football Team Jerseys
I believe The University Of Tennessee football team should be able to wear black as an alternate jersey color. I believe they should be able to wear them for any of the following reasons. 1. Tradition - The First Jerseys ever worn by UT were in fact black. 2. It's Awesome. 3. Players and recruits love them. 4. More Revenue for the Athletic Department. 5. Will cause some of the "down in front" crowd to give up their season tickets making room for much needed new blood

Paybar: The Bar That Still Pays
Nov 17, 2001 (Updated Mar 16, 2002)
Site Ease of Use:
Customer Service:
Effort vs. Reward:
The Bottom Line
You don't have to do much to make money with Paybar.
Full Review
Call me silly for using a get-paid-to-surf program now, but I had heard from trusted sources --- not just random people soliciting referrals --- that Paybar actually does pay. It takes some time to reach the $20 minimum but, in the end, you'll get your hard-earned money through Paypal or by check. You choose.
Paybar will reward you with $0.60 for every 1000 ads viewed, and you have to be actively using your computer or the viewbar will stop counting after 3 minutes. Bear in mind that this is not a per-hour rate, and that you will only be paid for viewing 15,000 ads a month, bringing your maximum personal earnings per month to $9 only. Given that, it will take at least 3 months to reach the minimum payout level without any referrals. Admittedly, these earnings are not much and you probably won't get far if you don't have at least 2 or 3 referrals.
Speaking of referrals, you'll get $0.15 for every 1000 ads viewed by your direct referrals and $0.05 for every 1000 ads viewed by your indirect referrals (people referred by your referrals --- 5 levels deep). My referrals showed up in my account immediately after they registered. No problems there.
One of the things I like most about Paybar is that it doesn't make my computer crash or slow down one bit. This is really very surprising, and it must be the only viewbar that doesn't do so. The only itch is that if I disconnect from the Internet without turning Paybar off first, it takes forever to log off. However, this is easily remedied by going to my Task Manager (Windows 2000) and ending the process from there.
You'll be paid as long as your net connection is live and you've been moving your mouse around or typing something (but NOT by using a cheat program!). The active window does not have to be your internet browser, like most get-paid-to-surf programs require. For example, I'm writing this review in MS Word right now, and it's still counting up banner views.
Some times the viewbar refuses to recognize my user ID and I have to try two or three times before finally getting through. The ID, by the way, is extremely long and I haven't bothered to learn it up by heart. If the viewbar isn't on, or isn't working, I always have to copy-and-paste it from my email before being able to access my stats . Ofcourse, it's also saved into the viewbar and I can just login through there.
Oh, and the popup ads! Every few minutes the viewbar produces ads in popup windows. Highly irritating, I must say! Even if you don't close the last popup window, another one is bound to pop up.
I can't say the website is at all professionally designed. Information available is quite sparse, and I was left hanging with some questions at first. But customer service is great: My queries were answered very quickly. Account information is fairly basic --- it shows stats for the current and previous months for you and your referrals, and you can view your payment history or change your information. Stats are updated every 10 minutes or so.
If you opt for Paypal as your payment, you'll get an extra dollar along with your earnings; This is probably because Paypal doesn't have any mailing costs. Non-US members have no choice but to use Paypal, and if you're a US member and don't want to use Paypal, you'll have to wait till you reach $50 for a check. Earnings are sent within 60 days after the end of any month in which you reach the minimum.
The Better Business Bureau badge is, in a way, quite reassuring because you have to be a reliable program to join. The BBB does not guarantee any of its members performance, however: it's just that they're required to keep to the standards.
The only thing I'm worried about that I know will eventually pull Paybar down is that almost all their ads are CPA (Cost Per Action). This means that they only get paid if a user actually shops or signs up for a program, which is less often, and not if they just view or click an ad.
I mainly use Paybar so that I can recharge my Paypal account. The viewbar docked the bottom of my screen doesn't bother me much because, like I said earlier, their viewbar doesn't slow my computer down and I don't even notice it all that much.
UPDATE: As predicted, "Due to a lack of advertising inventory, the PayBar service has been discontinued indefinitely."

Why the ELL Gap?
2013-14 Test Scores Show Gains
New York State entered the 2013-14 school year—the second year of the Common Core era—with a pointed awareness of the challenges revealed by the 2012-13 test scores. The good news is that test scores released yesterday show progress across the board toward the goal of college and career readiness for all students in both Math and ELA.
The ABCs of NYC Charters
The NYC Department of Education (NYC DOE) released its 2012-13 Progress Reports for all public and charter schools*. Charter schools continue to earn a higher distribution of A and B grades than district schools; 69% of charter schools scored an A or B grade over 63% for the district.
NYC Council Education Committee Hearing
The New York City Council Education Committee held a hearing October 2, to consider three important resolutions, Res. 1263-2012, Res. 1395-2012 and Res. 1906-2012, regarding school utilization. The resolutions call for a moratorium on school closings and co-locations for a period of at least a year, require CEC approval for school co-locations, and create new procedures for parental notification of proposed changes in school utilization.
Scores and Rumors of Scores
Michael Regnier
"It ain't what people don't know that hurts them. It's what they know that ain't so." Whoever said that didn't know the charter school debate.* Especially after the release of state test scores, we actually have both problems.
NYC Charter Schools Among Bright Spots as State Sets New Baseline
UPDATE: We posted our in-depth analysis of charter school test scores. View it here.
When School Progress Reports Penalize Success
Study shows that a group of metrics called "weighted regents pass rates" may cause schools with high-achieving students to be penalized for failing to achieve mathematically impossible growth targets.
A Community Eager to Learn
Drawing nearly 600 parents, the first-ever Brooklyn Charter School Fair gave parents the opportunity to speak directly with charter school representatives and learn about all of their public school options.

Deutsche Bank AG (DBK) was sued by Sealink Funding Ltd., which accuses Germany's largest lender of fraud over the sale of $960 million in residential mortgage-backed securities.
The suit was filed today in New York State Supreme Court by Dublin-based Sealink, a fund created to manage Landesbank Sachsen AG's riskiest assets after it almost collapsed. The complaint accuses Deutsche Bank of misrepresenting information about loans that were pooled into 19 securities bought by Sealink in 2006 and 2007.
"Deutsche Bank originated, purchased, financed and securitized exceptionally high-risk loans into these RMBS, all while internally disparaging the poor quality of these loans and the RMBS they backed as 'pigs,'" Sealink said in a complaint, referring to residential mortgage-backed securities.
Sealink has filed similar lawsuits in the same court against Bank of America Corp., JPMorgan Chase & Co., Morgan Stanley, Royal Bank of Scotland Group Plc, Barclays Plc, Nomura Holdings Inc. and Credit Suisse Group AG in the past year. Sealink accuses them of misrepresenting the risks and characteristics of the loans underlying mortgage-backed securities.
The lawsuit "is without merit," Renee Calabro, a New York-based spokeswoman for Frankfurt-based Deutsche Bank, said in an e-mail.
Pools of home loans securitized into bonds were a central part of the housing bubble that helped send the U.S. into the biggest recession since the 1930s. The housing market collapsed, and the crisis swept up lenders and investment banks as the market for the securities evaporated.
The case is Sealink Funding Ltd. v. Deutsche Bank AG, 652174/2012, New York State Supreme Court (Manhattan).

39 And they baked the meal, which a little before they had brought out of Egypt in dough: and they made hearth cakes unleavened: for it could not be leavened, the Egyptians pressing them to depart, and not suffering them to make any stay; neither did they think of preparing any meat. | 39 With the dough they had brought from Egypt, they baked cakes of unleavened bread. The dough was without yeast because they had been driven out of Egypt and did not have time to prepare food for themselves. |

found a new home!
Plenty of my friends are looking

Find a pet to adopt |
My name is Brownie!
Facts about Brownie
- Breed: American Pit Bull Terrier/Boxer Mix
- Color: Brindle
- Age: Young
- Size: Med. 26-60 lbs (12-27 kg)
- Sex: Male
Brownie's Info...
I am already neutered and up to date with shots.
Brownie is a handsome, well behaved, 11 month old puppy. He loves to play and has lots of puppy energy. He is very smart, friendly and cuddly and would love to find an active family who can keep up with an energetic boy who can be a little overbearing. He already knows some basic commands, and with consistent training, his youthful exuberance could be easily kept in check. He loves to ride in the car, and sits quietly and patiently. He would do best in a home with a fenced in yard without young children, cats, or small dogs, because he is large, playful and young. Please e-mail email@example.com for more information on Brownie or to set up an appointment to meet him, or fill out an application on our web site ~ www.caresouthcoast.com
Other Pets at C.A.R.E. Southcoast
Why Adoption is a Great Option
Brownie, a Acushnet American Pit Bull Terrier/Boxer dog was adopted! Here's how you can benefit by looking at adoption as an option to buying a American Pit Bull Terrier/Boxer for sale in Acushnet, or seeking a American Pit Bull Terrier/Boxer dog from a breeder in Acushnet.
- Rescues and shelter volunteers in Acushnet 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 Acushnet 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 American Pit Bull Terrier/Boxer breeders who help with American Pit Bull Terrier/Boxer rescue. One puppy or kitten adopted in Acushnet paves the way for another one to be saved.

aspy, spergy, are you capable of actually typing anything you haven't seen le maymay shitlords posting before?
If the shoe fits. Not entirely sure what a maymay is but I'm sure you thought it was a very clever reference.
my god you really are a menopausal woman aren't you???
Afraid not. Just amused by your continued ranting
i wonder who is more amused?
Pretty positive it's me. Been laughing at your posts with a few dozen people for days now.
you know its ironic i figured you for the type to get so worked up they can't help but compulsively drag other people into their shitty internet arguments out of some pathological need to be emotionally supported
you literally are like a menopausal woman, you act exactly like my mother when she gets into some stupid argument in some stupid forum about some stupid topic (usually politics) and decides she needs to mention it to me when i see her, because the thought that nobody knows she's right drives her fucking insane
i on the other hand am having a good enough time i don't need to try and recruit myself a backup choir to make me feel validated BUT HEY i'm sure your shitty friends love hearing about your reddit tiff, be sure to tell them all about it!
Woah another big wall of words to show how not mad you are. Really hope you didn't think I was going to read any of that.
ouch, i must've hit a nerve if you've resorted to "lala can't hear you"
sorry bob :(
You can tell yourself whatever you need to I suppose. Won't make it even a tiny bit true though.
and that's on top of your compulsive need to try and have the last word, which in and of itself seems very emotionally unstable

so i bought this bronzer the other day and i really do love it, it is very build able and gives a beautiful summer glow, you only need a little bit to have a good effect on the skin so it wont run out any time soon
Very good bronzer indeed, got it in duty free for $ 30 CAD and to be honest I achieve same results / contouring with Rimmel Matte Bronzer for $ 6 CAD, wouldnt spend that kind of money again.
I'm an NC25 and this color is the perfect color for my skintone. It is a very buildable bronzer, and I love it's being a matte one. Great for contouring as well!
1 out of 1 people found this review helpful. Did you? Yes No
I would not purchase this bronzer again. I feel that it does not have very much pigmentation at all and is not very buildable. If you do get some colour it looks streaky. I am very disappointed with this product and I much prefer my MAC MSF in 'give me sun' for bronzing my face.
This looks like a nice subtle colour in the packaging, but I find that it barely shows up at all on my fair skin. I like to use bronzer to contour my cheek bones but this doesn't really do the job. It's ok for adding a nice, subtle colouring to my cheekbones and nose using a MAC 187 but definitely doesn't make enough of an impression considering the high price tag. I much prefer Benefit Hoola, especially for the summer months.
I have been forever looking for a matte bronzed that doesn't contain glitter or shimmer and finally I came upon this when in MAC looking for an alternative to my mineralize skinfinish natural. the MUA put on the studio tech foundation and then swept this across my cheek bones and it looked so gorgeous! I have fair skin, NC15 to be exact and this bronzer didn't look too dark, Orange or muddy on me at all. I had to have it and have been very happy with my purchase. I would definitely buy it again although it seems this one compact will last me forever!
I was only half satisfied with this bronzer. On the one hand, the matte colour was nice and natural, with no sparkle which was what I wanted. However I found that although natural, the colour was too subtle for me, and it was very difficult to build. For the expensive price it was used up quickly, and I would not buy it again
2 out of 3 people found this review helpful. Did you? Yes No
nice product, on me it looks natural, i have Hoola bronzer and some times i find it a bit yellow but the Matte bronze does not do that, even my daugther told me my cheeks looked much more natural with it, to give you an idea, i have the Machmaster in 1.5 and its perfict on me and i am NC 15 in fluid fix and it washes me out.
Good basic bronzer. Not the best, but a good one. Little orangey sometimes depending on skin type. But no dreaded grey tones either.
good price for amount of product.
use all year round..I sometimes use this as a contour shade -- it's very soft and natural looking around the eyes but it's a definite warm shade.
This is the perfect neutral-brown matte shade to use for contouring. What I love about it is that it's not extremely pigmented so its easily built up but not so sheer that it is time consuming. My skin tone can range from NC30-40 depending on the season, and I find this shade isn't too dark for me at any time. It creates almost a 'shadow' effect as it is very neutral-cool toned which is perfect.
It lasts about 8 hours on the skin I find which is standard for me with bronzers. The packaging as always with MAC is sleek and compact, with a mirror included. I am really impressed with this bronzing powder and I would recommend it for contouring on light-medium to tan skin tones.

Natural gas futures may fall next week as mild weather reduces demand for the power-plant fuel, boosting injections into storage, a Bloomberg survey showed.
Seven of 12 analysts, or 58 percent, predicted that futures will decline on the New York Mercantile Exchange through June 14. Four, or 33 percent, said gas will advance and one said prices will stay the same. Last week, 42 percent of participants said gas would decline.
Temperatures will be seasonal from the East Coast into the Midwest through June 20 with a chance for lower-than-normal readings in the Northeast next week, according to Commodity Weather Group LLC in Bethesda, Maryland. Gas prices yesterday fell to a 12-week low after government data showed the biggest weekly stockpile gain for the time of the year in four years.
"The storage injections during the summer are going to be a lot stronger than last year," said Carl Neill, a consultant with Risk Management Inc. in Atlanta. "We are building storage very rapidly and if you have mild temperatures that is going to continue to be the case."
Natural gas futures yesterday fell 17.4 cents, or 4.4 percent, to $3.827 per million British thermal units on the Nymex, the lowest settlement price since March 14. Gas has dropped 3.9 percent so far this week, heading for a second straight weekly drop. The futures are up 14 percent this year.
The futures yesterday broke through technical support at around $3.93 and $3.95, which may spur further declines as speculators unwind more bullish positions, Neill said.
Cooler Weather
The high in New York City on June 14 may be 67 degrees Fahrenheit (19 Celsius), 12 below normal, according to AccuWeather Inc. Washington's high may be 11 lower than the usual reading at 73 degrees while Chicago may also be 73 degrees, 7 below normal.
Power plants will account for 32 percent of U.S. gas consumption this year, according to the Energy Information Administration.
U.S. stockpiles increased by 111 billion cubic feet to 2.252 trillion in the week ended May 31, the most for this time of the year since 2009, EIA data show. Analyst estimates compiled by Bloomberg predicted an increase of 100 billion. The five-year year average gain for the period is 92 billion.
The gas survey has correctly forecast the direction of prices 50 percent of the time since its June 2004 introduction.
Bloomberg's survey of natural-gas analysts and traders asks for an assessment of whether Nymex gas futures will probably rise, fall or remain neutral in the coming week. This week's results were:

Food crisis in southern Iraq worsening, UN agency says
January 27, 2015
ROME – A food crisis is unfolding in southern Iraq, where thousands of internally displaced refugees who have moved there from other parts of the country do not have enough to eat, a United Nations agency said on Tuesday.

Hello. We're involved in a new build and our builder is about to order windows. We're talking about vinyl, double-hung. He originally recommended PlyGem Pro Series, Classic (I think that equals the 600 series). We were fine with that. Then last night I was checking JD Power ratings for appliances when I saw they also rate window companies. Their ratings for PlyGem are not very good. Then I saw that they really like Simonton. I know that installation has much to do with the final product and in that area I feel good. Should I press our builder to look into the Simonton ProFinish Contractor series instead? We've had terrible windows in the past and the idea of getting a new house full of bad windows with a bad company didn't let me sleep last night. Thanks! |

JD power is not what I would consider a valuable evaluation tool for window quality. Where are you building the home? |
- Posted by HomeSealed (email@example.com) on Mon, Mar 19, 12 at 16:23
Plygem and Simonton are pretty much on par with each other in their better offerings, which I'd say is probably B-grade. If you are located out west, those options are probably about as good as you'll get, but if you are East or midwest, Softlite, HiMark, and Sunrise are superior. |
We are building in VA. Would you say okay JD is alright for things like appliances? I know that the individual comments are usually motivated by people who are upset with a product, which is why I thought the ratings would be helpful. I'm sure a lot of this is jitters because once we put in the order there's no turning back. :) |
- Posted by UneedaWindow (email@example.com) on Mon, Mar 19, 12 at 17:09
The JD Power rating is a customer satisfaction survey and in terms of customer service Simonton is hard to beat and they do manufacture a good window. I would look into the Simonton Pro-Finish Brickmold 600 Series it�s nicer looking compared to the Contractor Series |
- Posted by HomeSealed (email@example.com) on Mon, Mar 19, 12 at 21:36
In VA you probably have access to Sunrise, HiMark, and Softlite. Those are the elite choices in vinyl IMO. If Windows on Washington covers your area you'd be well served to contact him to access a higher level of product than what you've seen... You are absolutely correct to question the motivation of salespeople, reviews, etc. When in doubt, the only objective measure is the performance ratings, both thermal and structural. |
Perhaps I should be a little more specific, we're in central VA about 100 from DC. Thanks for all the comments. I feel better hearing that PlyGem isn't terrible. I'll also ask our builder about Sunrise et al, although I understand how he'd prefer to go something he's familiar with. He did steer us away from the vinyl Pella. |
agree with the other poster, both simonton and plygem do offer their own " premium lines" which get a B rating, you could look into the higher quality vinyl such as HiMark / Okna , soft lite, or sunrise. |
- Posted by windowsonwashington (email@example.com) on Tue, Mar 20, 12 at 8:51
You can get Okna down there as well as long as you are willing to pick them up. |
"both simonton and plygem do offer their own " premium lines" which get a B rating" From whom? |
- Posted by millworkman (firstname.lastname@example.com) on Wed, Mar 21, 12 at 19:32
window professionals |
- Posted by HomeSealed (email@example.com) on Wed, Mar 21, 12 at 21:29
I second that. :) |
ply gem vinyl new const are the old m&w windows they still use the old string and spring balance system simonton has a few more glass options available though. |
- Posted by windowsonwashington (My Page) on Thu, Apr 5, 12 at 8:01
String and spring balance? You say that like it is a bad thing? The newer block and tackle systems provide more linear force, are more resistant to debris fouling, and have a longer cycle ratings. |
- Posted by EcoStarRemodel (My Page) on Fri, Apr 6, 12 at 0:40
+1 Top end manufacturers like Sunrise and Marvin use B&T on their entire line of windows. It's tested to 40,000 openings as opposed to constant force, which is usually tested to 4,000 openings. Either system will provide many years of trouble free service. |

Hello arll,
hope you all had a good new year's eve.
I am looking for those butterflies patchwork cutters. I cannot find a store where i live that carries them.
I live in Canada, Ontario. to be more specific i live in Newmarket.
You can definitely find patchwork cutters at Global Sugar Art. I'm assuming they are called the same thing with the suppliers. I believe it's a brand name.
I'm in Ontario Canada. Here are a couple of stores:
www.sugartiers.ca Click on Shop, they have lots of Patchwork Cutters reasonable prices.
www.flourconfections.com They have Patchwork Cutters too.
Good Luck
Quinte West, Ontario, Canada www.TeriLovesCake.ca Strictly Wheat & Gluten-Free
Is this what you're looking for?
deborahannehttp://grandmasugarskitchen.blogspot.com/http://fromlinetocolor.blogspot.ca/Life begins at 325° F, and, yes, that IS powdered sugar in my hair.
I got mine at http://globalsugarart.com. Product ID #18562, but then I got Product ID #28095 and life was a bit easier. I hesitate to shop at Global without a Paypal account because they were having problems a while back so I'd recommend going to http://amazon.com and typing 'fondant butterfly cutters'
thank you
how come you didn't like product id # 18562? is it the quality or is it just hard to work with them, which is what i was told
I sell Patchwork cutter in my shop and use them quite often. If you go to the Patchwork site they do have a list of suppliers and you might find one in your area.
Please note that many Patchwork cutters are not for use with fondant, and that could be the reason why people dislike the cutters. They're simply using them the wrong way. Patchwork recommend Mexican paste, and many of the instructions with the cutters include a recipe for Mexican paste.
Have you purchased a set yet? I accidentally ordered 2 and have a set just sitting here waiting for someone to use it. I love my set, If you give me your address I will send you my spare. Happy Belated Boxing Day!
BTW, I was referring to the Patchwork cutters, not the plunger cutters. I just don't like the look of the plunger cutters. Look like moths to me.
I bought them from GSA and love them, but accidentally purchased 2. I was going to return the one set, but forgot and hung on to them. Don't use them with anything other than the Mexican Paste. I tried and that works the best. Alan even has a video to show how to get the best results with those butterfly cutters. I am so glad I purchased them. Good Luck!

Annie's Mailbox: Sister-in-law obsessed with bleach
Monday, January 18, 2010
Dear Annie: My sister-in-law is overly obsessed with bleach. She uses it to wash dishes, and within minutes before she bathes her two small children, she wipes down the bathtub with it.
I have told her that the fumes are not good for anyone. She says germs freak her out and this is what her mother did. I informed her that there are eco-friendly products on the market and even dish soap with bleach, but she is not open to change.
Should I just leave her alone and mind my own business, or should I keep on making the effort for the sake of her kids?
— Just Wondering in Southern California
Dear Wondering: It's possible your sister-in-law is watering down the bleach sufficiently so it is not hurting her children. Bleach can be toxic if undiluted and swallowed, inhaled or allowed to touch the skin. It also can be damaging to the environment. Your sister-in-law should never use it on items where her children will come into immediate contact.
Try to be understanding of her germophobia, while explaining that she might want to switch to white vinegar for the tub and dishes. Vinegar also kills germs but is more benign. If she refuses, tell her to please be careful and watch her children for signs of toxicity — stomachaches, coughing, irritated eyes or skin. She should never mix bleach with ammonia, and if something should happen, make sure she has the number of the National Capital Poison Control Center at 1-800-222-1222.

I swear, it's like it's a holiday season or something, with all these books on sale. Today there's a saga that's best described as historical fiction, and more Johanna Lindsey, too.
Through a Glass Darkly by Karleen Koen is on sale for $2.99. It was originally published in 1986 and was a bestseller. While some Amazon reviews mention typos that sound like scan errors ("…On page 507 the word "be" should be "he" in the sentence "If be kisses me, she thought…and she could not finish the thought."")
Karleen Koen's sweeping saga contains unforgettable characters consumed with passion: the extraordinarily beautiful fifteen-year-old noblewoman, Barbara Alderley; the man she adores, the wickedly handsome Roger MontGeoffry; her grandmother, the duchess, who rules the family with cunning and wit; and her mother, the ineffably cruel, self-centered and licentious Diana. Like no other work, Through a Glass Darkly is infused with intrigue, sweetened by romance and awash in the black ink of betrayal.

Secret Fire is $1.99 digitally. And that cover is SO TOTALLY SUBTLE LIKE WHOA.
He'd caught only a glimpse of her from the window of his carriage, but the young prince knew he had to have her. Within minutes, Lady Katherine St. John was dragged from the London street and carried off to a sumptuous town house — for the pleasure of her royal admirer…
From the tempestuous passion of their first encounter, across stormy seas, to the golden splendor of palaces in Moscow, she was his prisoner — obsessed with rage toward her captor even as an all-consuming need made her his slave. Yet theirs was a fervor beyond her understanding, carrying them irrevocably toward final surrender to the power of undeniable love.

Tender is the Storm is $1.99. Mail order brides out west? Oh, yeah.
Headstrong heiress Sharisse Hammond wants no part of the New York society marriage that has been arranged for her. So she heads west across a vast and dangerous land — with no intention of honoring her agreement to become the mail-order bride of a rugged Arizona rancher.
But Lucas Holt needs a wife — any wife — if his plan to destroy his most hated enemy is to succeed. And this gullible Eastern lady would do quite nicely. However, their separate schemes to use one another are complicated by raw, aching passion. For Lucas's beautiful, unsuspecting pawn was not supposed to be so irresistible alluring. And freedom-loving Sharisse never dreamed she could ever desire one man so much!

A Gentle Feuding is $1.99. I never spell "feuding" right on the first try. Ever. And, if I recall, the feuding isn't very gentle all the time. I remember these two fighting like rock'em sock'em romance characters.
Duty demands that Sheena, the beautiful jewel of the Fergusson clan, wed to end the violent feud that has devastated her family. But never could she give herself completely to the handsome and dangerous laird Jamie MacKinnion – the most feared man in the Scottish highlands.
The captive prize of Jamie's sword, Sheena struggles in vain to escape the desire awakened by his touch. And though pride insists she hate her dashing enemy, Sheena's heart begs her to yield…and to surrender to Jamie's passionate love.

Silver Angel is $1.99 -$3.99 depending on retailer. I think that, among romance readers who have read a few Johanna Lindsey novels, everyone has their favorite: a book that, despite some "No, really, I know this sounds insane but…" moments, you re-read and love every time. Silver Angel is that Lindsey novel for me. The heroine's name is Chantelle, she gets put in a harem, the pasha isn't who he says he is, and there's politics that play out in the harem bathing quarters. Even with some "OMGWAT?!" moments in the book, this is the Lindsey that makes me sigh and roll my eyes at myself at the SAME TIME every single time I read it.
Abducted and sold into slavery, Chantelle Burke has been brought to the palace of the mighty Pasha. Vowing never to bow to this ruthless master's will, the young Englishwoman weakens within the silken splendor of his chambers, and after on glance into his piercing emerald eyes.
The stunningly handsome Pasha is a powerful, muscular figure yet he caresses the lovely addition to his harem with a fond tenderness that only succeeds in driving her wild. But beneath his exotic eastern garb, the cryptic Pasha shrouds his true identity — one that he finds difficult to conceal when he wants so much to surrender his hearty and soul to the irresistible Chantelle.
