Jaime Bayly Letts was born in Lima in February 1965, the third of ten children. His father, Jaime Bayly Llona, attended college in London but returned to Peru to work as an executive at his father's bank. Later, Grandfather Bayly gave his son's family a mansion with domestic servants and vast manicured gardens in a tony suburb of Lima called Los Cóndores. It was about as distant a setting as you could find from the cramped, dirty callejones of downtown Lima where little Jaime would eventually find himself. But the beautiful landscaping hid a divided family. Jaime's father and grandfather shared a frigid relationship.
Jaime's family mostly declined to speak with New Times for this article. For his part, the talk-show host remembers his childhood as a bitter standoff with his distant father. They interacted, he recalls, mostly when Jaime Sr. would punish little Jaime for no apparent reason. After any impropriety, the father would call the boy into the bedroom and order him to strip naked. Then he would lash his backside with the end of a leather belt until it bled.
"It wasn't until years later, when I had grown up, that I remembered that and thought: 'What the fuck? That is a very strange way of punishing your son,' " Bayly recalls. "My father had a comfortable, even luxurious life, but demons and phantoms were eating at his soul."
Bayly's mother, Doris Letts, came from an equally wealthy and widely respected family. Her brother, Roberto, became a millionaire mine owner. But Letts never went to college, instead marrying Jaime Sr. when she was 21 years old. She became a stay-at-home mother but was almost as aloof as her husband. A member of Opus Dei, an ultraconservative Catholic organization, she would come to Jaime's room and pray with him every morning before school. When she suffered a miscarriage while Jaime was a toddler, she grew more fanatically Christian.
By age 13, Jaime could barely stand to be around his dad. One night, fearing another brutal beating, he sneaked into his parents' room and grabbed a handful of golden necklaces and crucifixes. Then he shoved them into a backpack along with some extra clothes and slipped out. He made his way to downtown Lima, where he walked the dimly lit streets and pawned his mother's jewelry for a fraction of its worth. Then he visited several seedy hotels that denied him boarding until he finally bribed a young woman to give him a key.
The cash lasted only a week, and he returned home. But the boy escaped twice more until, finally, his mother sent him to live with her parents across town when Bayly was 15.
Around the same time, Letts arranged for him to work after school at Lima's second-largest daily newspaper, La Prensa. The next three years were a golden age for both journalism in Peru and Bayly. In 1980, much of the press was returned to private ownership after more than a decade of military dictatorship. Staffs expanded, and Bayly quickly graduated from filing clippings to writing sports and economics stories. But the teen was best when picking apart Peruvian politicians. By age 17, he had his own weekly political column, called "Banderillas" — named for the darts bullfighters thrust into their oversized victims.
"From the moment he arrived, he was spectacular," remembers Federico Salazar, a colleague at La Prensa. The boy was quiet and respectful with colleagues but a fearless reporter who once jumped into a famous economist's car to get an exclusive interview. In the evenings, as editors prepared proofs of the mornings' papers, Salazar, Bayly, and the rest of the newsroom would go out for drinks. Those were fleeting moments of true happiness before fame closed in around him.
After a year of "Banderillas," the upstart journalist received a call from Genaro Delgado Parker, owner of Canal 5, one of Lima's most popular TV stations. He asked the then-18-year-old to appear as a panelist on a nightly program called Pulse. Bayly was perfect: tall and handsome, brilliant and irreverent. He soon had his own nightly show, and strangers began to recognize him on the street. They called him "el niño terrible."
With fame came money, drugs, and casual sex with men and women, Bayly recalls. Soon, he was snorting so much Peruvian blow that sleep wouldn't come for two or three days. His habit worsened when he also took a TV job in the Dominican Republic, jetting frantically back and forth between Lima and Santo Domingo every two weeks to tape the two shows.
Finally, after a Sunday spent coked out of his mind watching Italian soccer in his Lima apartment, Bayly dialed his parents' house just before midnight. His father answered.
"Dad, I... I'm thinking of killing myself," Bayly recalls saying while staring out over his balcony.
"This is no time to be calling the house," his father answered before hanging up.
"That's when I realized that I was actually doing exactly what my father wanted me to do: destroy myself," Bayly says. "I decided I wasn't going to be his drug-addicted son."
Just as Bayly was kicking his cocaine habit, a previously unknown math professor named Alberto Fujimori won the 1990 presidential election in Peru. For two years, Bayly ripped the populist on national television. But when Fujimori suddenly dissolved Peru's congress, courts, and constitution in 1992, a friend warned Bayly that his name was on a list of journalists who were already being rounded up and thrown in jail. The fearless journalist caught the first flight to Madrid.

I don't know why I keep buying matte shadows when I know I just don't like them. I actually purchased this to line my eyes but it failed. Other pigments (like black black) are GREAT for lining my eyes, but this one was a heaping mess. The color, is rather intense and very pretty IF you are looking for a VERY dramatic purple. I just don't like matte shadows. I need to just stop buying them.
To me, this was a very true-to-crayola purple, with very small silver flecks. It is also rather opaque, and a little goes a long way.
More reviews by CatrionaShadowleaf
I bought a sample of this pigment and I adore it. A gorgeous dark purple that doesn't lean too red or too blue and is so highly pigmented that you need barely a touch of it to really make a statement. I have had no trouble using it on my eyes, even as a lower lash liner, and though my eyes are not extremely sensitive, there was no redness, swelling, or itch. I did not have any trouble blending it and have not seen any shimmer to it, though it is not exactly matte. I love using it on top of a wash of cream shadows and with other pigments, mostly other purples.
I would definitely recommend applying this and other pigments prior to your base makeup. There is a slight fallout issue and Grape specifically is very dark and so very noticeable if you just try to wipe it away.
Beautiful, beautiful colour. Don't toss it just because it says you can't use it near your eyes. Send it to me instead!

I was able to snag a sample of this and, while the colour payoff was great and I like the colour, I have many VERY similar colours that are a much better price point. I don't mind spending more if I'm getting something truly unique that I cant find anywhere else but (and this is why I don't purchase much from MAC), when something is easily duped for cheaper, I can't bring myself to spend the extra money, as I don't like paying more just for a brand name.
For those worrying about whether it's safe to use on eyes, for most people, it's fine. However, some people do have allergies to certain colorants used in the manufacturing of pigments (red seems to be more allergy-prone, and any purple colour would contain red to some degree), so MAC doesn't market them as explicitly eye-safe for legal reasons. If people use them on their eyes and have a reaction, MAC won't be held liable because nowhere did they state they were eye-safe. Obviously, many people have used them around the eye area with no problems, but there is still the slight chance you may have a reaction. You can test out a smaller sample before committing to buying a big if you're worried about allergies.

Dearest Grape Pigment:
Oh, How I love you. You started my love affair with MAC and you were the enabler to my pigment obsession. You really are the perfect deep purple. You're so pretty on my yellowish green eyes and I swear to love you forever.
I got this in the 2.5 g vial and I was really looking forward to it because I didn't have a deep purple eyeshadow BUT I read the instructions and it isn't eyesafe so it is completely useless for me now. I don't wear nailpolish and thats pretty all it is good for. Makes me sad...I should have just gone and gotten the violet.

I just bought the pigment today and i read on the package that it's not safe for the eye area. i'm really bummed because that's what i got it for... eyeshadow! does anyone know if you actually CAN put this on your eye and it won't harm it? thanks!
I hate this pigment. Not because of the colour, its a lovely colour - but this is the reformulated Grape that I have. This new, reformulated, repackaged Grape is horrible to use!
I got a sample of Grape a couple of years ago and it was shimmery, the colour payoff was fantastic and it was very easy to blend - I loved it. I recently aquired the new reformulated Grape pigment and it is more matte with pinky silver glitter, it is darker, it is hard to blend, chalky, the colour payoff is awful and it presses really badly. Also, new packaging, means less product. I am so so disappointed.
Why on earth did it need changing?
7 out of 7 people found this review helpful. Did you? Yes No
I got this is one of the christmas gift sets. I have never really used it. I just can't find a use for it. I will not buy it again since it is a color that is hard to use.
I love the color but it just does not go on as easy as the rest of the pigments. It is a little hard to blend and it is very hard to get off...
This is a true grape-like purple. Its very pigmented and works well as an eyeshadow. I got mine in the Holiday 2009 5 Cool Capers set and it works so well with all the other piggies but also looks great on its own. I love purple, so I'm glad to have this in my collection! I give this 4 lippies instead of 5 because, while this is a nice pigment and a nice color, I do believe that it is dupe-able. It is not extremely original. If this was not included in the set I purchased, I would not have sought this out.

For the past 15 years, St. Paul's Episcopal Church in Wilmington has hosted the Massing of the Colors, a very special veterans day ritual. A overwhelming sense of American pride filled the church.
"This is the day we can thank veterans for what they have done," said Lt. Col. Gary Greene.
"I have never missed one of these. I also think of several friends that did not make it home," added World War II veteran Tanky Meier.
Veterans and their families sang, prayed, and talked about the history of the Massing of the Colors.
"After World War I, the folks that were part of General Pershing's Army decided that they needed to have somebody who could recall how bad things were in that war, and they decided to get an organization together called the Military Order of the World Wars," said Green, a veteran of the Air Force.
The program allowed veterans to come together with their unit flags and American flags to commemorate the good things that came out of the war. Thus, the Massing of the Colors.
Delivering the Veterans Day address was Carolina Beach native Col. Jeri Graham, a 24-year Army veteran.
"Every day is an important day to thank a service member for what they do, what they have done, to serve this nation," said Graham. "I'm very proud to be part of that brotherhood and sisterhood."
Col. Graham knows many people who work at the hospital in Fort Hood. She commended their bravery. "I think in tragedy certainly what we have seen out there is how people pull together to focus on the care," she said.
"I hope most folks can remember a veteran that they know and give them a little bit of thanks, just give them a phone call, a handshake, something that says i do recognize that you've done service to our community, to our country, and I thank you for that," said Gary Green.

Sadly another disappointing ratings return from this week's Top Chef Masters, which for episode 8 of the 4th season only attracted 883,000 viewers and a 18-49 demo of 0.40. After exceeding 1m viewers in each of the ten episodes from Season 3, so far 4 episodes in Season 4 have been below 1m and in fact all four have been below 900,000. Season-to-date the average after 8 episodes is just 962,125 viewers and a demo of 0.44. That's a whopping 17.64% down in total audience and in the 18-49 demo, which is how Bravo sets their ad rates, the negative territory being reached is almost 24% at 23.91.
With another Top Chef spin-off, Life After Top Chef debuting on October 3rd, Bravo would have been hoping for better ratings for this fourth season of TCM. At Bravo Ratings we're beginning to wonder whether like Real Housewives that the Top Chef franchises have seen better days. So, it will be interesting to see you Life After TC does next month.
Those poor returns at the 10pm coupled with guests; Kevin Jonas and Lance bass, meant that for the 2nd time this week Andy Cohen's solo vehicle Watch What Happens Live, again failed to place in the nightly Cable Top 100 rated shows.

Dish Network (DISH) Stock Higher After Deal Announced With Disney (DIS)
NEW YORK (TheStreet) -- Dish Network Corp.
(DISH - Get Report) and The Walt Disney Co.
(DIS - Get Report) announced a groundbreaking deal that makes Disney content -- including WatchABC, WatchDisney and WatchESPN, among others -- available on-demand to Dish Network's 14 million subscribers with Internet connected devices.
Shares of Dish Network were up 2.4% to $63.70, while Disney shares were up 1.5% to $81.26 on Tuesday.
Must Read: Warren Buffett's 10 Favorite Stocks
Dish Network customers can now stream live Disney content as well as have mobile access to episode replay services from the company.
TheStreet Ratings team rates DISNEY (WALT) CO as a Buy with a ratings score of A+. TheStreet Ratings Team has this to say about their recommendation: "We rate DISNEY (WALT) CO (DIS) a BUY. This is based on the convergence of positive investment measures, which should help this stock outperform the majority of stocks that we rate. The company's strengths can be seen in multiple areas, such as its revenue growth, solid stock price performance, impressive record of earnings per share growth, compelling growth in net income and notable return on equity. We feel these strengths outweigh the fact that the company shows low profit margins." Highlights from the analysis by TheStreet Ratings Team goes as follows:- DIS's revenue growth has slightly outpaced the industry average of 3.9%. Since the same quarter one year prior, revenues slightly increased by 8.5%. Growth in the company's revenue appears to have helped boost the earnings per share.
- Powered by its strong earnings growth of 33.76% and other important driving factors, this stock has surged by 38.97% over the past year, outperforming the rise in the S&P 500 Index during the same period. Regarding the stock's future course, although almost any stock can fall in a broad market decline, DIS should continue to move higher despite the fact that it has already enjoyed a very nice gain in the past year.
- DISNEY (WALT) CO has improved earnings per share by 33.8% in the most recent quarter compared to the same quarter a year ago. The company has demonstrated a pattern of positive earnings per share growth over the past two years. We feel that this trend should continue. During the past fiscal year, DISNEY (WALT) CO increased its bottom line by earning $3.38 versus $3.12 in the prior year. This year, the market expects an improvement in earnings ($4.02 versus $3.38).
- The net income growth from the same quarter one year ago has exceeded that of the S&P 500 and greatly outperformed compared to the Media industry average. The net income increased by 33.1% when compared to the same quarter one year prior, rising from $1,382.00 million to $1,840.00 million.
- The return on equity has improved slightly when compared to the same quarter one year prior. This can be construed as a modest strength in the organization. Compared to other companies in the Media industry and the overall market, DISNEY (WALT) CO's return on equity exceeds that of both the industry average and the S&P 500.

Axl Rose attacks camera man at LAX – Video.
Axl & Tuesdae of Chelsea Girls at a Hollywood night club a few years back.
Axl flips out again. Is anyone shocked?
We at Metal Sludge are not shocked at this but we are shocked to see that baldy has ditched the corn rows and seems to have some new hair style going on. Stay tuned for new pictures.
Guns n' Roses are headed to Taiwan to kick off some tour dates and that means Axl had to mingle with common folk along the way. And what happens? He turns a trip to the airport into a scandal.
Axl Rose is a fucking animal. There are little kids and elderly people standing only feet from him at LAX airport as he errupts. And this jerk calls the paparazzi belligerent. Shame on you Axl.
Watch the video clip found >HERE< on TMZ and see the mayhem unfold.
This here below is courtesy of TMZ.
Before the brawl, Axl warns the paparazzi about a photog who was allegedly getting close to a woman in his entourage saying, "touch her again, I'll break his f**king neck."
Seconds later, the woman can be seen scuffling with a photog — and that's when Axl charges in and swings for the photog's head … knocking the guy right on his ass.
As members of Axl's entourage tried to rip the Guns n' Roses singer away, the rocker continued to stomp and kick the man while he was on the ground.
Members of Rose's crew eventually tore him away and walked to their gate. In the footage, it's clear two TSA agents observed the fight, but we've learned they never notified airport police.
Axl has since posted an article on his MySpace page, in which the paparazzi are described as "belligerent" — it also states Rose was uninjured in the "unprovoked attack."
A post on the official Guns n' Roses MySpace is >HERE< giving their side of the incident.

The Blood Type Diet Archives Volume 9
Posted By: MichelleDate: Saturday, 20 February 1999, at 4:01 a.m.
In Response To: Goal Busters (Loni)
I did ok this week except for giving in to EVERY single CHOCOLATE craving... I discovered Hershey Dark Chocolate Nuggets with almonds.....bad bad bad bad me. I feel like I did *terribly* this week, although I exercised every day sometimes twice a day. Not real intense workouts, but workouts nonetheless. The chocolate craving thing is killing me. I am down to NO other carbs (grains) at all...I just eat beef, fish and salads, and steamed or other raw veggies. I am not even eating sweet potatoes. And have not lost any weight. I crave chocolate after every meal, and in between meals! I have gotten some advice on our O mailing list as to taking calcium/magnesium supplement, maybe I am deficient in Magnesium, I will start the supplements on Monday. AND give up chocolate. I *know* what to do, I just feel like I lost my will power. I want to try getting into ketosis...I think I would probably be there if it weren't for the candy. I really really *really* want to lose those last 5 lbs. My clothes don't fit like I want them to. I was skinny as a vegan and now, I am dealing with people telling me all the time "...you've got BACK now!" and "...you're getting thick!" and comments of me looking "healthier" all the time, which that one I don't mind. I *know* I look healthier, people comment on my color (which used to be lacking in my face!), hair, skin, etc....but the weight comments are starting to hurt. I have gained between 5-10 lbs. Well, let's see...right now I am 136 I used to be 129. *sigh* I know that this is no national emergency...I am glad that I am healthy! Yes, I am thankful. VERY thankful. But I am one that used to have an eating disorder and weight plays a very important emotional role in my life. I don't know why, cause otherwise on this diet, I am soooooo happy!! I am emotionally UP UP UP all the time!!! This has taken almost 6 mos. on the diet to get like this, but I wouldn't trade this feeling for anything!! I am high on life it feels like! I know that this is way more important than my *weight* !!! But nonetheless, I am still hung up on the silly numbers. The comments from co-workers don't help. Oh well...Thanks for reading my probably incredibly boring post. I rambled....
SO, I think the goal for next week is NO CHOCOLATE!!!! aaaaaaaaaarrrrgh! Thanks, it felt good to let a little steam go!
Love you guys!!!!! thanks!
Michelle :-) smiles, all

Oscar for Best Director
Ron Howard: I became intrigued by what the director did primarily because when I was working on the show -- The Andy Griffith Show -- the actors, they were a blast. I had so much fun hanging around with them. They were interesting, they were smart, they were funny. They were playing practical jokes, then on a dime, they could focus and do great work. And even as a kid, I was impressed with these people. But I also really enjoyed spending time with the crew. They'd let me sit up there and work the camera or learn a little something about sound, how the microphone worked, and placement, and lighting, and things like that. And I enjoyed that time. And, after a while, I realized that the director was the one person who, moment to moment, day in and day out, really got to play with everybody. And the job just started to look very, very good to me. View Interview with Ron HowardView Biography of Ron HowardView Profile of Ron HowardView Photo Gallery of Ron Howard
Award-winning Stage and Screen Actor
I got a job off the back of a newspaper as a - what they call an "Acting ASM," I think it was called then. An acting assistant stage manager in a theater in Canterbury, a rep theater. A small wage but just enough to get by on, and I made props and I walked on and I changed scenery and I realized that I just loved it. Not the acting. I wasn't acting. I liked the theater. I liked the people. I liked the time that we worked. Now looking back I see what I was doing, but at the time I didn't know. You never know at the time. What I was doing was finding a way not to have to be stuck with any of the sort of people I'd been educated with, but finding a way of creating the life of a gypsy really, of being able to move from camp to camp, singing around the fire, getting to know those people and then moving on maybe with some of them -- or maybe not -- to another place.

It's allowed me to go on great journeys into other people, which I enjoy. I have a very blinkered mentality. I tend to -- there's good things and bad things about that. I tend to see what I'm after and go for it and everything else doesn't exist, which is very useful when you're creating a character, or when you're acting in front of a camera with 100 people, you know. It's quite difficult for those who live with you, who suddenly don't exist, like your wife or your children or your secretary. You know? But they're used to it now.

National Book Award
John Irving: I was a moody kid. I was an aloof kid, I kind of kept to myself. I think that an early sort of pre-writing indication that I had the calling to be a writer was how much time I liked to spend alone. I wasn't anti-social. I had friends, but I didn't really want to hang out with them after school. What I saw of them at school was enough. I needed to be in a room by myself even before I was writing, just imagining things, just thinking about things. If there was a weekend with too many cousins or other people around, I got a little edgy. I think the need to be by myself, which I've recognized in a couple of my own children, is one that was respected by my grandmother, with whom I lived until my mom remarried, as I told you, when I was six. And I was fortunate to be in a big house, my grandmother's house, and there were lots of places to get off by yourself and imagine those things that I didn't know. And I find -- I'm 63, and my capacity to be by myself and just spend time by myself hasn't diminished any. That's the necessary part of being a writer, you better like being alone. View Interview with John IrvingView Biography of John IrvingView Profile of John IrvingView Photo Gallery of John Irving
When I was still in prep school --14, 15 -- I started keeping notebooks, journals. I started writing, almost like landscape drawing or life drawing. I never kept a diary, I never wrote about my day and what happened to me, but I described things. If I had known how to draw, maybe I would have drawn hundreds of pictures of my grandmother's garden, but instead I wrote sort of landscape descriptions of it. I think that was what was so compelling to me about those Dickens and Hardy novels. Just the lushness of detail, the amount of description, the amount of atmosphere that is plumped into those novels. It's like nothing you read today, except from those writers who are essentially 19th century story tellers themselves: the Canadian, Robertson Davies; the German, Günter Grass; Garcia Marquez; Salman Rushdie. Basically old fashioned 19th century plot-driven story tellers. Among my contemporaries, I still like the old fashioned ones. Some exceptions, to be sure. I mean Graham Greene is such a good story teller that I forgive him for being as modern as he is. But I was never a Hemingway person. I never understood that. Moby Dick, there was a story. The longer, the better. I remember kids who were reading Moby Dick in a class and would be just complaining about, "Do we have to know everything about the whaling industry? Do we have to read about the blubber and all the rest of it?" I couldn't get enough of it, you know. I couldn't get enough of it.

John Irving: The foremost advice I'd give them is that they better read everything they can. They better read, read, read, read, read. They better read as many good books as they can. They better put the literature of the world into storage somewhere, because they're going to need it. The truth is, if you get to be a writer -- especially if you get to be a self-supporting one, which means you get to write all day, nothing else gets in your way -- if you get to do that, what happens is you'd rather be writing than reading. I'm not a good reader anymore because I write all the time. Literally, all the time. Well, I'm glad. I feel lucky that I was a good reader as a kid, because I don't know when else I would have done it. I'm not embarrassed that I'm not much of a reader now, because I'm not slacking, you know. I write seven days a week, I can write eight hours a day. Not everybody can do that. I couldn't do that 20 years ago, but I can do it now. Twenty years ago, when I wasn't writing screenplays concurrently with whatever novel I'm writing, I was a better reader. I used to read a lot of things when I was between one novel and not yet started in the next. But now I'm never between things, because when I finish a draft of a novel, I go immediately to one or two or three uncompleted screenplays. I just go back and forth. There's always something on my desk. There's always something I can be writing, and I'd rather be writing than reading.

After an initial phase of dissemination led by pioneers from a single country (1.0); after several years of intensive multilateral exchanges sustained by lifelong learning projects (2.0), it has become clear that the Community Supported Agriculture movement is entering a new phase.

Urgenci has been playing a leading role in several European projects focusing on experience sharing. CSA4Europe, in particular, has been widely recognised as a valid model for Community Supported Agriculture (CSA) exchanges between different countries.

"We want our community to experience a direct connection with our farm. My belief, which has guided me as a farmer, is that food is much more than just a commodity. It is connected to personal well being, to relationships to family and friends, to the vitality and persistence of community and culture, and to the care and respect for the land. Live Earth Farm is a place where everyone has the opportunity to reestablish their knowledge of how food is grown."

Sex toys give the ultimate orgasm to men! Wait a minute, aren't these things for women only? I know, most men object to woman using sex toys and enhancers, asking "Aren't I good enough?" Once men become comfortable they quickly realize that toys don't replace the partner, it significantly enhances partner sex, which can enhance sex for him too!
There are C-rings that encourage a reliable erection, or delay creams, like my Stay Hard Cream, that can help a man last long enough to bring a woman to orgasm.
A definite man pleaser is the GIGI. This can be used several different ways. When he is away from home and has the urge, or when you are talking dirty to him while he is away on business, he can use it on himself, with a little warming Lubricant; it will feel like the real thing. The GIGI can also be used for oral sex, slip it on him, put the tip of his penis in your mouth, hide under the covers and he may never know the difference. The GIGI can also be used as a bumper guard for that extra loooong man! The GIGI can come also in vibrating modes!
How many know where the man's G-Spot is? For those who do not know, it is their prostate, up inside the anal canal. For a man's ultimate orgasm try something like Jet Black or Onyx adventure! Massaging the man's prostate while performing oral can give a man that ultimate orgasm! Do not be jealous women; these two are great anal pleasure for you too!
So layback and get ready to be aroused in ways that will blow your mind. If you are interested in these or any of my arousing mind blowing sex enhancers, please email me. Parties are free, fun and educational.

So to quote Donna Hay's words - this recipe really is fast, fresh and simple. Have to admit have a bit of Donna Hay obsession lately and her recipes really are fast and very tasty.
These are paprika chicken burgers, with lemon mayonnaise and rocket leaves. We loved sweet spicy zestiness mix of flavours. Try them out today, especially that barbecue season will not last for long...
For 4 portions:
- tbs olive oil
- tsp paprika
- tsp dried red chilli flakes
- 2 x 200 g chicken breast fillets, trimmed and sliced lengthwise
- 2 bread rolls, halved
- rocket leaves, to serve
- 85g mayonnaise
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
For the burgers: So because it is a burger - we sliced chicken breasts in half lenghtwise. Than combine the oil, paprika and chilli and pour over the chicken, make sure fillets they are evenly coated. Preheat barbecue or the oven to 200°C. Cook the chicken for 3 minutes each side or until cooked through.
For the mayonnaise: place the mayonnaise and lemon juice in a bowl and mix to combine.
Cut the rolls in half, place them for 2 minutes on barbecue or in the oven, spread with the lemon mayonnaise and top with the rocket and chicken to serve.

Most people who have businesses on the Internet know about Google and Yahoo / Overture PPC programs. These are considered first tier advertising programs for those who need to receive targeted traffic to their website. Google and Yahoo / Overture also have publisher programs so that web publishers can place ads on their websites and earn revenue from the clicks on the ads.
Google's AdSense program accounted for record profits in the third quarter of 2005 ($957 million total for all programs). The Yahoo / Overture publisher program is still in beta but has been a welcomed alternative to many who would like to diversify off from Google, are disenchanted with Google or who have been dropped by Google for various reasons.
As a second tier publisher program, Miva (formerly FindWhat.com) also offers an alternative for the same reasons and there is a shorter wait in the application process than for Yahoo / Overture. Miva offers higher click rates than the third tier programs like Searchfeed or Kanoodle and features something quite unique that Google AdSense refugees will appreciate.
It's been well circulated on the message boards that Google will ban many publishers for 'invalid clicks' whether they were the source for these clicks or not. This arbitrary banning of publishers have led many to look for alternatives that are much more publisher-friendly.
In Miva's Partner Center, invalid clicks are accounted for and integrated with the click results pages. Clicks are categorized as 'clicks' and 'screened' and neither the publisher or Miva gets paid for the screened clicks. Miva will work with publishers by giving out the IP addresses of click robots that need to be banned through the Webmaster's host. This matter-of-fact, "Yeah, we know invalid clicks happen and this is just part of business on the web" approach will be refreshing for those who cower in fear of being dropped by their current programs for clicks that they cannot control. With this publisher-friendly approach, Miva cannot help but succeed when it comes to courting publishers who want more alternatives for their web properties.

What Ever Happened to Ground Zero?
In the News | By Scott Pelley | February 21, 2010
60 Minutes
"I describe it as a national disgrace." Larry Silverstein, the 78-year-old New York City real estate tycoon, shook his head slowly as we stood over the muddy pit known around the world as Ground Zero. It took three cameramen from "60 Minutes" to photograph the expanse of the 16-acre hole that was once the basement of the World Trade Center. True, some construction had begun, but as I stood there with Silverstein looking at rainwater pooling down below, I thought, "Nobody's gonna believe this."

ich lebe klaver(i love piano)
das musik ist sehr schon, nicht?(the music is very beautiful, no?)
leabe ist horan(to hear is to love)
auf deutch mein lebst(in german i love)
ein mannlinn mit grun augen(a man with green eyes)
und ein gross hartz noch(and a big heart too)
what do you think?
I feel so unbearably frustrated at the moment. Everyone keeps pissing me off and spring break honestly can't get here fast enough. I need a break, I feel like I'm working my ass off in every class with no end. :/
Ok I have a really quick question...
I wanna get a Wacom drawing tablet, and I was wondering if anybody knows of a cheap source to get it from. The cheapest one sells at best buy for like $100.
Any Suggestions?
I was wondering what you guys and gals and guy-gals and gal-guys like to draw. (that was a mouthful) Also your style. Also maybe if it's different then you're favorite subjects or styles.
I love digital art, and recently I got a deviantart account. Some of the art there is AMAZINGLY sick! I've actually got into looking at the Anthro stuff (animals drawn to look like they have more of a human structure, like hands *think cartoons w/ animals like tom & jerry or something*). It's pretty cool what some people can do.
If you like just Anthro stuff, there's also www.furaffinity.net
Last weekend I was in my school's production of the Laramie Project it was awesome. I mean I cried by the end of every show but it was amazing to be a part of. For those of you who don't know, Laramie Project is a play that is made from a collection of interviews with people of the town of Laramie Wyoming after the beating and death of Mathew Shephard in 1998 because he was gay.
I got a B+ on my Project 2 and I've started work on Project 3 already. I didn't get a good grade on my Math Exam 4 but my teacher told me to keep trying and that I can recover. I hated that for 3 of the ?'s,I had right numbers but just the wrong signs!
The Bonfire was really fun:). Spring Break was me mostly talking to a friend:) while doing some hwk and chores too. Last week's school was good,I finished my project 2 ,had a good crit and I got my Exam 3 and I got a C+:). Did I tell you guys I got a 75% on my Redo?
I had an OJ for breakfast,then watched The View,and went to the bookstore and got MyMathLab.com for Math, a soda and found out I only need supplies for Art(which I can find out what and get on Monday). I also got the prices/titles for my sisters' books. Man,is she going to pay A LOT if she gets em there and not online.
Because I feel like being a pessimist. I can't be entirely optimistic all of the time right? So I'm going to make a list of pet peeves and stuff. Because I'm bored...
Hey, I've listed links to each of the covers I designed.
Note: the second one is more of a joke than anything. I was bored when I designed it. It's still kinda cute though.
For those of you who want to see the good details: Hi-res
Belive it or not, that has nothing to do with anything, except this picture I drew earlier, it's really random... And I couldn't describe it to you no matter how hard I tried so here's a link:
It was just randomness. But I really like how it turned out.
Well, it was earlier.. I just went outside to get some fresh air and I was like "It's blue out" because the sky was overcast but everything felt really blue. X3 Whatever.

Orofino Chamber of Commerce
The future of printed media
Paul Emerson is retiring in May after 28 years as the Managing Editor of the Lewiston Tribune (LT). He was the keynote speaker at the April 7 Orofino Chamber of Commerce luncheon and outlined some of his background and his hopes for the future of printed news.
He began his LT career at the very young age of 22 as a sports writer. His grand scheme for his life was to work in that position for three years and then move on to Seattle to work for a bigger paper. He stayed and worked his way up to Managing Editor at the age of 33.
Emerson said when he began working for the LT, articles were typed on paper and given to an editor who edited them with a #2 pencil, after which, they then were given to a typesetter. There were 15 Linotype machines in the composing room, which were used to transfer the articles onto lead plates for the press. As it is with the Clearwater Tribune, the process now is paginated at a computer by the editor.
Emerson said he has had many proud moments in the past but none more so, than when his team of reporters covered the floods which hit the region in 1996 where his reporters and photographers were able to get to areas even the post office was unable reach.
Looking at the future of journalism, with instant and online news available, Emerson emphasized the need that people seek out well-rounded reporting by checking different sources. He stressed the necessity of getting balanced reporting to get the whole picture.
Dworshak update
Paul Pence, Natural Resource Manager for the US Army Corps of Engineers, stated that Dworshak Reservoir is at 52% of the normal snow pack for this time of year. It is at the lowest level it has been since 1961. Pence said that a very optimistic prediction would be to get within 8 feet of full by the end of June or the first week of July, but that the reservoir is not expected to fill.
New members
Two new members have joined the Chamber: Riverside Pizza and Pub, and Back Country Medics.
Loren Whitten-Kaboth, Director of Clearwater County Economic Development, was introduced by Joe Pippenger.
Business after hours
The next Business after Hours get-together will be held at Brookside Landing, Thursday, May 13, between 5 p.m. and 7 p.m.
Community Clean-up
and Arbor Day
The OCC is sponsoring community clean-up and Arbor Day Saturday, April 24, at the Orofino City Park, 7 a.m. to 12 noon. Chamber members are responsible for clean-up of Heritage Plaza.
Chamber packets
Heather Burnham, Executive Director, is requesting member businesses provide brochures and information about their companies for the packets that are given out to visitors and mailed to interested businesses.
Next meeting
Representatives of the Pierce- Weippe and Kamiah Chambers of Commerce, will visit at the next regular meeting. The meeting is scheduled for April 21, at 12 noon, at the Ponderosa Restaurant.

Electrons and TV Screens
Name: Unknown Status: student Age: 30s Location: N/A Country: N/A Date: 11/15/2004
What happens to the electrons that bombard the screen of a television when it is switched on? They cannot just disappear. Only when the television is turned off and on does the electrons stick to the outside of the screen. Also, when I switch off my computer screen electric discharge sounds are heard at the back of the electron gun. Please comment.
You are right in that electrons do not disappear. They move along the back of the screen through the power supply that is keeping the inside of the screen at a very large positive voltage (perhaps 25,000 volts) so the electrons are accelerated toward the screen to cause the correct phosphors to glow when they strike it. I do not know why there are electric discharges at the back of the electron gun when your computer is turned off; perhaps it continues to be charged up with electrons, but the electrons are not accelerated towards the screen since that voltage may already have fallen to zero. This could make the gun very negative and the resulting discharges are the electrons escaping.
Best, Dick Plano...

Fire captains play very important roles in today's society. Fire captains are responsible for their station and they report to the fire chief. A fire captain who works in a large station may have somewhat more narrow job requirements due to the fact that their staff can be quite large. However with smaller stations, fire captains have a large range of responsibilities. Some of their duties include managing the fire station, performing safety inspections, checking equipment on a regular basis, ordering new equipment, and they are often times in charge of training new firefighters. The captain is also held accountable to evaluate fires and determine how their firefighters should respond to each and every fire. They are also responsible for finding quick solutions to any problems that may arise.
