Complaint: Library of Congress biased
The U.S. Equal Employment Opportunity Commission could issue an opinion soon on an ex-Library of Congress worker's discrimination allegation because he's gay.
Half of the staff is gay anyway...that's probably NOT why he was fired.

Canids display a wide diversity of social systems, from solitary to pairs to packs, and hence, they have been extensively used as model systems to understand social dynamics in natural habitats. Among canids, the dog can show various levels of social organization due to the influence of humans on their lives. Though the dog is known as man's best friend and has been studied extensively as a pet, studies on the natural history, ecology and behavior of dogs in a natural habitat are rare. Here, we report results of an extensive population-level study conducted through one-time censuses in urban India to understand the foraging associations of free-ranging dogs. We built a model to test if the observed groups could have been formed through random associations while foraging. Our modeling results suggest that the dogs, like all efficient scavengers, tend to forage singly but also form random uncorrelated groups. A closer inspection of the group compositions, however, reveals that the foraging associations are non-random events. The tendency of adults to associate with the opposite sex in the mating season and of juveniles to stay close to adults in the non-mating season drives the population towards specific aggregation. Hence we conclude that to be or not to be social is a matter of choice for the free-ranging dogs, and not a matter of chance.

After the brawl, he went to the local blacksmith and was apprenticed three days later. A few years later, he learned that his teacher had recently begun cheating everyone out of what few coins they had. Confronting him, the elder blacksmith denied any knowledge of what the boy was talking about until a swift kick was delivered to the old Ork's face. After a verbal battle and a severe pummeling, the old Ork finally succumbed to the boy and gave him ownership of the smith and all the tools within. He died in his sleep fifteen days after Sora'oso's 23rd birthday, and was cremated and cast to the winds. On his 26'th birthday, he was given a summons to Meka to help construct parts and pieces for the various machines, items, and weapons produced there.

Auburn Tigers (13-10)
@Mississippi St. Bulldogs (18-5)
Saturday, February 04
Humphrey Coliseum
Attendance: 9,026
Mississippi St.
Starkville, MS (Sports Network) - Arnett Moultrie scored 21 points and pulled down seven rebounds to lift No. 22 Mississippi State to a 91-88 win over Auburn.
Renardo Sidney had 17 points, Dee Bost added 15 points with seven assists and Jalen Steele had 13 points off the bench for the Bulldogs (18-5, 5-3 SEC), who bounced back from a loss to Florida last Saturday.
"We had things going a lot of different ways tonight," said Mississippi State head coach Rick Stansbury. "We had five guys in double figures and you'll win a bunch of games if you get scoring from that many people."
Kenny Gabriel had 22 points and 11 rebounds while Frankie Sullivan added 16 points for the Tigers (13-10, 3-6), who have dropped three of four. Varez Ward had 24 points and five assists in the loss.
Near the midway point of the second half, the Bulldogs held a 13-point lead on a Moultrie dunk, but the Tigers got a layup and three-pointer from Sullivan and Allen Payne followed with a dunk to make it a 68-62 game.
Two free throws from Gabriel with nine minutes to play made it a 69-64 game, but Moultrie and Sidney followed with a pair of free throws each.
It stayed close the rest of the way and Payne made it a four-point game on a jumper late in the contest as the score was 88-84, but Shaun Smith made his two from the line.
A quick layup from Sullivan was followed by a Moultrie free throw and Sullivan was then fouled on a three-pointer, but he made just two of his three shots and it was 91-88 with 0.2 seconds to play.
The Tigers led early, but Rodney Hood hit a three-pointer and Moultrie followed with a pair of baskets for a 16-12 lead seven minutes in.
The game stayed close for the rest of the half, but Payne hit a pair of free throws and Gabriel made a three-pointer late in the half to give Auburn a 44-43 lead at the break.
Bost opened the second half with three straight three-pointers to give Mississippi State a lead it didn't relinquish the rest of the game.

Top 10 Condiments
Duck sauce? Fucking duck sauce? Thats just the yellow bag of goo you throw out after you grab the soy sauce packet from the Chinese delivery bag. Outrageous claim. So lets dig in here.
First thing's first, I'm gonna define what I call to be a condiment, because its a grey area. I'm gonna say anything that enhances the flavor of the food you're eating is a condiment. If its a dip of some sort that is the main thing you're eating, its not a condiment because its the main focus. So, for example, bleu cheese is a dipping sauce put onto wings. Therefore, its a condiment. Salsa Con Queso is a dip that you eat using chips because you basically need something to chew while eating it. Therefore, not a condiment. Also, we're just gonna say that cream cheese is not a condiment. Its just too different from other sauces and what not. It would trump pretty much everything and shoot to number 1 on the list.
10) Barbecue Sauce – If given the choice between barbecue sauce and sweet and sour sauce, you always choose barbecue. Especially at Wendy's. A Wendy's 5 piece without barbecue sauce is like a gun without bullets
9) Ginger Dressing from Japanese places – Personally, "in a vacuum," these ginger dressings are my favorite thing in the fucking world. When I get Chinese food, I put it on everything. Salads, dumplings, sushi, whatever. Its delicious. I'd shower in it if I could. Problem is, its so specific to Chinese and Japanese food. You can't really get it anywhere else that you're eating. To rare to make the top of the list.
8 ) Sour Cream – An absolute must have if you're eating Mexican. Tacos, quesadillas, burritos. All of them need sour cream.
7) Oil and Vinegar/Balsamic/Italian dressing – For the times when you want chicken cutlet sandwiches with mozzarella cheese and hot peppers and shit, and obviously don't want to combined all that with mayonnaise. More of a dressing than a condiment, but a perfect compliment on italian subs and chicken cutlet heros when other sandwich spreads don't mix well
6) Chipotle Ranch – This is pretty much strictly a bar thing, but I spend a lot of my time eating bar food so I put it in the 6 hole. Just straight up a delicious blend of spicy and tangy. Amazing on chicken fingers, frickles, sandwiches. A rare but fucking delectable condiment.
5) Hot sauce – The most versatile and powerful of all condiments. Can overpower the flavor of virtually anything its placed on – which helps in college or when you're traveling and the food sucks. It can range from scrambled eggs to pizza to soul food. Provides the kick and spice thats missing from a lot of foods.
4) Mayo – The quintessential sandwich condiment. Ham, turkey, bolgna – they all belong with mayonnaise. Pretty much every single deli sandwich cheese, except mozzarella, belongs with mayonnaise. Bring out the Hellman's and bring out the motherfucking best. The best sandwich condiment, period.
3) Ketchup – Probably the first thing that comes to everyone's head when you say "condiment" is ketchup. It was like the originator, right after salt and pepper. Hamburgers, french fries, hot dogs. Eggs, breakfast sandwiches, grilled cheese. Meatloaf, hashbrowns. Out of the respect for ketchup's career alone, you need to make it top 3.
2) Brown Mustard – Controversial decision to put brown mustard over ketchup. Especially right after waxing poetic about ketchups dominance. The thing is though, I'm a big hot dog guy. And I'm a firm believer that ketchup on a hot dog is disgusting. Its disgusting, its irresponsible. Its borderline Communist. So if you take away my mustard, you basically take away my hot dogs. You take away my freedom. Just for the sheer "can't live without it" aspect, mustard over ketchup
1) Bleu Cheese – The champ is here! The GOAT. Bleu Cheese and buffalo wings – the greatest combo of all time. Shits on PB&J. Its the Jordan and Pippen of food combos. The creamy cool feeling it provides when eating spicy buffalo is the best condiment achievement ever. Without Bleu Cheese, buffalo wings lose some of its appeal. THATS the reason its number 1. It affects the deliciousness of wings. And I don't wanna live in a world where wings aren't as delicious as they possibly can. And dont even MENTION ranch. Ranch dressing is for chicks and gays, end of story.
Honorable Mentions – McDonalds Secret Sauce, Bearnaise sauce, the fictional Franch Dressing from Breaking Bad

Paul Smith: still the best of British (Telegraph)
"'Quirky and cool' work well to encapsulate his output, from his first boutique in Nottingham in 1970 selling standard shirts with colourful stitching around the buttonholes, to a business empire that today stretches to 75 countries, with a turnover of £400 million."
H&M August sales hit by warm weather (Reuters)
"World no.2 fashion retailer Hennes & Mauritz on Monday posted an unexpected drop in like-for-like sales in August, blaming a heatwave in key European markets for keeping customers away from stores."
London Fashion: Rethinking Luxury (On the Runway)
"It's good to see Tom Ford nail down a hot look again. Two years ago he staged a private little show in his New York store, asking friends like Julianne Moore, Rachel Feinstein and Rita Wilson to model his first women's line since leaving Gucci and Yves Saint Laurent."
A Label That Has Regained Its Luster (NY Times)
"In other words, Americana chic has gone mainstream. Just visit the nearest mall. Club Monaco unveiled a Made in the USA collection last year, in collaboration with Mr. Williams. J. Crew cashes in on Americana chic by selling domestically manufactured Alden shoes, Levi's Vintage Clothing jeans and Billykirk leather goods."
Sarah Mower on what it takes to be a BFC ambassador (Telegraph)
"When word reached my friends that I'd been appointed the British Fashion Council's first ambassador for emerging talent in 2009, an emailed tease dropped into my inbox from a former Bath Convent schoolmate: 'Handing round the Ferrero Rocher, then?' No, actually. Non-stop swanning around embassies murmuring about marvellous British frocks isn't all there is to it."

Artificial recharge by floodwater spreading estimated by water balances and groundwater modeling
Publiceringsår: 2014
Språk: Engelska
Publikation/Tidskrift/Serie: Hydrological Sciences Journal
Volym: 10.1080/02626667.2014.881485
Dokumenttyp: Artikel
Förlag: Taylor & Francis
Water harvesting and artificial recharge have been the main and parsimonious solution for water scarcity problems in the arid and semiarid Middle East for thousands of years. These techniques are increasingly being encouraged and at present there has been a renewed interest to find improved methods for water harvesting and artificial recharge in many arid countries. In the present study water balance calculations and groundwater modeling were utilized to investigate the performance and hydrological function of an improved water harvesting technique called floodwater spreading system in arid Iran. The recharge amount varied from a few hundred thousand cubic meter per month during drought periods to about 4.5 million cubic meter per month during rainy periods. The gain through artificial recharge, however, was depleted by too much groundwater abstraction by numerous new-drilled pumping wells. Hence, the groundwater declined in spite of the artificial recharge. With a balanced pumping, however, this research showed that the floodwater spreading system could be an efficient way to increase groundwater resources in arid and semiarid areas. Further research is needed to optimize the floodwater harvesting system for improving the management in view of uncertain frequency and magnitude of inflow.

I found some scans of Kangana Ranaut wearing some very pretty dresses in a Femina issue that appeared a while back. Here they are with my commentary (I really can't shut up it seems).
Dress 1:
I am ambivalent about this Moschino dress she is wearing. Maybe it's the styling or maybe it's the pose but it looks a bit prom-ish too me.
Dress 2:
I know I ranted about the Gauri and Nainika dress Bipasha wore during LIFW but this creation of theirs is gorgeous. The colour and the flow of the dress are so flattering and flirty. Oh my, did I just compliment someone?
Dress 3:
This Nalanda Bhandari creation is pretty enough but it doesn't really stand out to me. Blame it on the red riding hood theme of the pic if you will, but it doesn't do any favours for the dress.
Dress 4:
Correct me if I'm wrong, but this BombayElectic dress does nothing for Kangana's figure. She's a very tiny girl and this dress does unflattering and widening things to her hips.
Dress 5:
This is another Gauri and Nainika creation which does not come close to rivaling the yellow dress. It's not bad, it's just not earth shattering.

Oh Anu, she is very pretty and has an offbeat look that instantly separates her from the B-wood pack rats, but the whole persona just rumples when she opens her mouth to speak. She really must hire a good speech trainer to change her very Northie accent to a neutral one. She's not able to express herself in English very well, in some of her interviews that I've seen, and if she could just improve in that area, it would really giver her an edge!

Get some perspective please ilovecheese! Don't you think it's highly (and shamefully) paradoxical that those who attain stardom mouthing Hindi in films should be looked up at for giving interviews in fluent neutral accented (funny term, really) English???? Hightime we Indians got out of this slavish grid-lock.

quote:Not making any impact plays ever. I mean even the blind squirrel will crawl over a nut every now and again but not Malcom... he excels at avoiding making plays. Takes real talent in my opinion.
quote:Yes, now he has 2 more pass deflections than garret hartley.
quote:he was also responsible for covering Meachem on the play where Meachem dropped a TD in the back of the endzone. He got to far up the field on that one too. And the fake by Rivers on that second TD to Meachem was pretty half ass. I'm not sure why Jenkins would bite so hard on that. He did have the tip that caused Harper's interception so he sort of redeemed himself. But that first half was the worst I've ever seen him play.
quote:Sean saw all last night, and is keeping a list.
quote:Just so y'all know...Harper and Jenkins are ranked 19th and 22th in total tackles so far, which is 2nd and 3rd among among DBs in the league.

RGB Warped is a trippy arena survival game using very basic visuals that work to create a great atmosphere with challenging gameplay, but it's a challenge that can prove to be quite frustrating.
Players must run around an arena – avoiding snakes, giant heads, cacti, and more – trying to pick up slot machine icons strewn about. Players can only pick up an item of the same color as them, and the colors proceed in a red->green->blue sequence after each pickup. Picking up all the icons in a level is the way to get to the next one, but there's a scoring element to them as well. Collecting icons extends a chain timer, and keeping that going to the end of the level grants bonus points. Collect a chain of three of the same icon to get a large bonus. Players can do a dodge 'jump' that goes through enemies and other hazards that uses up one of the icons, so that can be a way to not just survive, but make a bonus chain happen. Of course when madness is all about, good luck trying to do that!
The visuals are very simple, relying on a three-color scheme that's both minimalist and functional given the game mechanics. There's enough of a visual blur there too that the game takes on a Jeff Minter vibe, along with the single-screen arenas feeling like his iOS game Minotron 2112 just in general. But this also has something of an 80's PC essence to it as well that is its own thing. CMYK mode, which gets unlocked after reaching a certain points threshold, feels kind of like Hotline Miami with all the neon.
The soundtrack is a great fit to the game, but it overrides whatever music is currently playing. If I want to try and dodge glowing snakes and a giant head to the sounds of Skeletonwitch, why can't I? I mean, the whole setup is pretty metal.
The controls prove frustrating: the protagonist moves so slowly that he just feels stiff. Dragging anywhere on the screen makes the game work ambidextrously, but it gets to be too easy to obscure the game action with one's finger, especially as there's usually action happening where the finger is, and item collection and contact is based on where the player character's feet are. It makes navigating tricky hazards and picking up items to be more difficult than this game already is. I hope this game supports gamepads once they start releasing to the public.
And really, the disappointing thing about RGB Warped is that because it's so committed to being challenging, it will likely keep most of its content locked away for only the most skilled players to ever experience. While I certainly appreciate a challenge, I think the game would be just as much if not more fun if it was a bit more forgiving.
Still, RGB Warped is a worthy experience, and one for those who aren't afraid of a little challenge.

"That there is no Jewish candidate in this particular race is more a consequence of personal behavior on the part of the potential Jewish candidate than anything else," quipped Flora Davidson, a professor of political science and urban studies at Barnard College, referring to Weiner, who resigned from political life and abandoned an expected mayoral bid shortly after distributing the photo.
In L.A., however, it's not just coincidence at play. There, the high visibility of Jews in this election cycle in fact reflects the power of the city's Jewish community as a voting bloc.
Jews make up just 6% of the population of the City of Los Angeles, compared with 13% of New York's. Jews in L.A. vote, however, at rates that more than double their political influence relative to their size. That's still a small bloc. But unlike in New York, L.A.'s primaries are wide-open, nonpartisan races in which parties play relatively minor parts. This allows well-organized minority ethnic blocs to exercise their clout more directly, without the mediating ethnic considerations the Democratic Party weighs when meting out electoral offerings.
"Because the system is not cluttered up with parties and boroughs and the deep, deep political organization culture that New York [has], a few groups, if they vote in large numbers, can be very significant," Sonenshein said.
According to Sonenshein, Jews in L.A. are the fourth most important ethnic bloc in the city, after Latino, Asian-American and African-American voters. They also have a history of forming powerful electoral coalitions with other minority groups.
That means that the Jewish vote in L.A. could be key to putting together a winning coalition. The Jewish bloc was originally expected to go to Zev Yaroslavsky, a county supervisor and high-profile L.A. politician who is highly identified with the Jewish community. Yaroslavsky, who was born in L.A., was widely considered to have a serious shot at the mayoralty if he chose to run this year.
In the end, Yaroslavsky stayed out. That left the Jewish vote wide open.
Two candidates with nontraditional Jewish backgrounds currently lead the L.A. race. Both have played up their Jewish credentials in their campaigns.

Quoted from brinyskysail I used to be very convinced that ghee gave me problems, but it was actually other foods I was eating with it. I can't really image why ghee would cause a problem, unless maybe if you have problems digesting other fats. What symptom(s) does it cause? I've spent the past 4 years trying to figure out reactions to foods - it's so complicated!
Quoted from 14428 I can have grapefruit and lemons, but all fruits make me hungry, and I can live with that. I can only rarely have the sweeter stuff and only a small amount or my blood sugar starts to yo-yo. I don't think I can have any grains either...nada...thanks for the article, looks like a good one... But you can eat ghee Brinky?
Quoted from brinyskysail If you don't have gastrointestinal problems from fruit then I guess you don't have fructmal.I actually like living completely grain-free. I don't have to deal with constantly trying to find gluten free products or trying to figure out what caused a bad reaction. I just eat meat, veggies, nuts, etc. and forget the rest - it's easier.And, yes, I can eat ghee.
Quoted from Vicki Was this store bought ghee or homemade?How does it look and smell?If store bought, which brand?
Quoted from brinyskysail http://www.foodsmatter.com/dig.....in_no_pain_rose.html
Quoted from 14428 Brinky that's a GREAT article. I have gone through that list and I do react to most all of them...rice now being the final one...I haven't had Teff or Sorghum so I don't know about them, but it explains why Millet bread is a problem for me... It also say's that Quinoa is ok but most likely cross contaminated. I have thought that I react to it as well, but now I'm wondering it it wasn't rice all along...like you said it's very complicated.
Quoted from 14428 I understand totally. No, no GI problems with fruits... I do like my diet mostly, and can honestly say I could never go back to eating the SAD...ever...don't miss that. YUK but I can't have most nuts either so it really narrows my food choices. I can have hemp seeds and do love them and also flax seed, so I'm going to practice gratitude...thanks Brinky... Not hearing from anyone else that ghee bothers them...?? I can't be the only one, was hoping for some other insight...
Quoted from Possum My reactions to fruit & grains can range from constipation, skin bumps, (usually both) or at most, slightly less formed stools, but rarely your typical gut reaction of diarrhea...so imo I would say that frucmal couldn't be ruled out as different ppl have different reactions...
Quoted from Possum brinky (love how O nonnie called you that ) - it would be unusual to have any lactose remain the ghee if you make your own, since it separates out into the oily part of the butter & the milky part Ghee is very healing to the gut so should help you...
Quoted from Lola http://www.dadamo.com/protocols/19.htmlUse this protocol for 4 weeks.
Quoted Text [/quote]A lot of people have called me brinky. I guess I should have put an underscore or something in my name to make it more obvious (briny_skysail). oh well - it really doesn't matter[quote]

Shift Drinks at Pops for Champagne

Dan Deoliveria, Michael Killmer, and Peter Vestinos at Shift Drinks at Pops for Champagne
Last night's Shift Drinks at Pops for Champagne to raise money for Shawn Koch of Paramount Room was a great success. Peter Vestinos from Wirtz Beverage Group, Dan Deoliveria and I banged out some classic cocktails for the hard working industry folks of Chicago. All of our tips went to our friend Shawn at Paramount Room who is recovering from brain cancer. We had a great time at this week's Shift Drinks at Pops for Champagne.
Be sure to stop in at Pops every Monday night to enjoy a local chef or mixologist highlighting his/her skills. All tips go to charity of their choice. Here's a short video of Colleen L. Healy from Pops for Champagne talking about why she likes Templeton Rye Whiskey during "Shift Drinks" the Monday Industry Night in Chicago, IL:

Sadly, we really loved Vino until he was busted. We imagined him as an attacking tornado.
All the venga's are a reference to Saiz's tendency to yell 'venga venga venga' nonstop through a megaphone while driving behind ONCE riders in TT's.
Of course, this is another reference to Landis' possible DQ from the tour. I think at about the same time Menchov was awarded the '05 Vuelta from Heras' DQ.
Thor's love of fish and Moreau's wussiness – two more recurring themes.
schmalz comment
Ah Vino! We really did like you at one time. Now you are dead to us - or will be the subject of our spite. We toss Moreau in there again, just because.
Where's the list Papp? you piece of crap.
Careful what you wish for. Clean riders just don't thrill the way the villains did.
Venga, Vino! Nice attack today. Looked human, but courageous!

Beauty Tested, Beast Approved is a grooming blog for normal guys. My wife, Amy (the beauty director of Allure magazine) has tried thousands of products over the years—mostly on herself, but often on the human guinea pig who sleeps next to her. Here are some of my picks, and for all Beast Approved entries, head here.
I'm constantly looking for new ways to simplify already simple tasks—I excel at laziness. This is especially true when it comes to grooming products. If I think a product will save me even a minute, I'm game to try it. But unfortunately, in my experience, I often find that the results aren't worth the convenience—they're sacrificed for the sake of speed. So even if I've saved a minute, I've actually wasted my time.
But that's not the case with Olay's Daily Facials Wet Cleansing Cloths for Sensitive Skin ($5.99 for a pack of 30 at walgreens.com). These handy pre-moistened wipes will clean your face just as well as the old-fashioned method in a fraction of the time, so they're perfect when you're feeling rushed or just plain lazy. Since they don't require water, you can also use them when you're on the road or in the woods for a weekend. And because the formula is fragrance-free, the wipes don't irritate or over-dry your skin.

Western Gas Partners acquires Anadarko's 50% inerest in joint venture
Western Gas Partners (WES) announced that it has acquired Anadarko's (APC) 50% interest in the Delaware Basin JV gathering system. The Partnership paid no consideration at closing, but agreed to make a future payment on March 31, 2020 equal to eight times the average of the asset's 2018 and 2019 earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization, less the capital expenditures incurred by WES from the closing date through February 29, 2020. Based on its current forecast of the asset's performance and capital needs, the Partnership currently estimates the future payment will be $283M. "This immediately accretive acquisition is another step towards the consolidation of our significant Delaware Basin position," said CEO Don Sinclair. "We will benefit from the asset's strategic position, the world-class resources in the Delaware Basin, and the addition of a 100% fee-based asset into our portfolio. Furthermore, the flexible financing structure assists us in maintaining our growth targets in a challenging environment." In conjunction with the acquisition, Anadarko has amended its existing gathering agreement with DBJV to extend the term to December 31, 2024. Gathering rates are determined using a cost-of-service methodology under which DBJV earns a targeted rate of return of 18% over the life of the agreement. The Partnership estimates that the net present value of the purchase price payment is $176M and that the asset will generate $15 to $25M of EBITDA in 2015. The terms of the acquisition were approved by the board of directors of the Partnership's general partner and by the board's special committee, which is comprised entirely of independent directors.

Body of literature that comprises those works (excluding the New Testament) written by Christians before the 8th century. It refers to the works of the Church Fathers. Most patristic literature is in Greek or Latin, but much survives in Syriac and other Middle Eastern languages. The works of the Apostolic Fathers contain the earliest patristic literature. By the mid-2nd century, Christians wrote to justify their faith to the Roman government and to refute Gnosticism. In the 4th and 5th centuries, Augustine of Hippo and others laid the foundation for much of medieval and modern Christian thought. Significant patristic authors include Justin Martyr, Origen, Tertullian, Eusebius of Caesarea, Athanasius, Basil the Great, St. Gregory of Nyssa, Gregory of Nazianzus, John Chrysostom, Ambrose, Ephraem Syrus (306?–373), St. Jerome, Theodore of Mopsuestia, St. Cyril of Alexandria (circa 375–444), St. Maximus the Confessor (circa 580–662), and Pope Gregory I.

Literary work dealing in a usually artificial manner with shepherds or rural life, typically contrasting the innocence and serenity of the simple life with the misery and corruption of city or court life. The characters are often the vehicles for the author's moral, social, or literary views. The poet and his friends are often presented as shepherds and shepherdesses; two or more shepherds sometimes contend in "singing matches." The conventions of pastoral poetry were largely established by Theocritus, whose bucolics are its earliest examples. Virgil's Eclogues were influential as well, as was Edmund Spenser's Shepheardes Calender in the Renaissance. The idea of pastoral as meaning a simpler world that somehow mirrors a more complex one also appears in novelists as different as Fyodor Dostoyevsky, Lewis Carroll, and William Faulkner. Seealso eclogue.

Body of written works produced to entertain or instruct young people. The genre encompasses a wide range of works, including acknowledged classics of world literature, picture books and easy-to-read stories, and fairy tales, lullabies, fables, folk songs, and other, primarily orally transmitted, materials. It emerged as a distinct and independent form only in the second half of the 18th century and blossomed in the 19th century. In the 20th century, with the attainment of near-universal literacy in most developed nations, the diversity in children's books came almost to rival that of adult popular literature.

Latin American poetic genre that imitates the payadas ("ballads") traditionally sung to guitar accompaniment by wandering gaucho minstrels of Argentina and Uruguay. By extension, the term includes the body of Latin American prose literature about the gaucho way of life and philosophy. Long a part of folk literature, gaucho lore became a subject of 19th-century Romantic verse, as well as prose that often explores themes of conflict between the old and the new.

Romance language spoken by about 170 million people in Portugal, Brazil, and other former Portuguese colonies. The first literary works in Portuguese date from the 13th–14th century. Standard Portuguese is based on the dialect of Lisbon. Dialectal variation in Portugal is limited, but the differences between Brazilian and European Portuguese are more extensive, including changes in phonology, verb conjugation, and syntax. The four major dialect groups are Northern (Galician, spoken in northwestern Spain), Central, Southern (including the Lisbon dialect), and Insular (including Brazilian and Madeiran) Portuguese.

5 Simple Tricks for a Better Relationship
We're having a destination wedding in Las Vegas. All of our friends and family members are paying their own way to get there, but I was wondering whether we had to pay for their wedding transportation around town (from the hotel to the chapel, and then from the chapel to the reception site). We've booked limos for the wedding party and our immediate families, but I don't think we can afford them for everyone else — what should we do?
You don't have to provide your guests with transportation once they're in town whether you're wedding at home or in a far-flung locale, but it is always a nice perk. If you have a small number of guests and they're all staying in the same spot, you could consider chartering a bus or vans to take them to and fro (everyone doesn't have to roll up in a limo). Those will get your guests where they need to go without bankrupting your budget. That said, since you are wedding in a major city, you could let guests fend for themselves -- after all, taxis will be available. If that's your plan, be sure you let everyone know well before the wedding that that's the deal. You don't have to be blunt (no "find your own ride" warnings necessary); instead, when you send other info about accommodations and so on, include the numbers of local cab companies or suggest spots where it will be easiest to catch a ride.

COLT Icons - Sam Dekker
Scene Info
COLT Icons - Sam Dekker
From the most trusted name in all-male erotica and continuing to set the standard in masculine appeal, COLT Studio Group and it's COLT Men are a cut above the rest. Standing at the apex of sexual expression, the men of the COLT Icon Series are the cream of the crop.COLT Man Sam Dekker is a man that likes all things rough and rugged. His hard muscled body looks like it was built from long days of hard work, giving blood sweat and tears on the job, rather than from the latest gym routines. His shaggy dark hair, his bulging hard working muscles, his firm round ass; all hallmarks of a true COLT Icon. Decked out in western wear or a tattered tank top, or even just in the nude, Sam Dekker looks like a tall glass of water any way you slice him. See for yourself in this collection of rarely seen images from the COLT Vault.

The first movie under John Rutherford's direction at COLT studio, after purchasing the studio in 2003, was
RELOAD. Making a hardcore COLT Movie of this quality certainly required some dexterity. The production
had its challenges due to the underwater sex sequence involving Marcus Iron and Rob Romoni. Rutherford
wanted to push the boundaries with the ways viewers got to look at COLT Men by staging innovative shots
of underwater penetration. Award-winning videographer, Todd Montgomery, used an underwater camera
to capture the scenes up close far before anyone else in the industry was doing it at the time. The scenes
were seen up close and the performers were very excited to try something new. The COLT Movie
RELOAD and its underwater scene will be one to remember.
The mood on the COLT Movie set was overall very positive, as each of the guys knew they were making
history and helping to take COLT Studio in a great new direction for the new owners. Of course, having
the opportunity to participate in so much man-on-man action, with a group of muscular men, was also an
incentive to do great work on the set.

Beware of False Prophets

The blog is not owned by any individual, nor is it affiliated to or associated with any political party or religion.

Len Ao: I had been constantly suffering from headache so one of my friend took me to a visionary. When he looked at me he told me that I had brain tumor and that I have to start my treatment from him which cost 8k per treatment. When I told him that I need to console a doctor first, this guy told me that nobody can cure me except his medicine, traitor! Our society need to wake from such prediction.
King Terho Letou: Many people are using the name of our Almighty GOD and cheating the common people. It is becoming a trend. It's clearly written in the bible that during the second-coming of Jesus, many false prophets will arise. So, we should see that we are not fooled by those false prophets. And, we need to go to the doctors to let them diagnose our sickness and prescribe medicines. We need to refrain from soothsayers who are just cheap cheating fellows. With these few lines, I don't mean that we should stop believing in those people with whom God shows us His wonderful works but to keep watch of ourselves so that we may not fall into the trap of Satan! And I saw a beautiful line in a doctor's room some years ago. It says: "God could not be everywhere to take care of our sickness so He created a Doctor!!" So let's make use of the Doctors whom God created for us.
Kingdoms: I want to share this info to the general public. Last year, a famous Chinese-American ENT specialist from USA visited CIHSR (Referral hospital) Dimapur and I assisted him. We saw around 40 patients and their complaints were the same "Sinus ase ho". Surprisingly, only 2 patients had sinusitis. The rest had allergic rhinitis and so on. He was like, "what the heck?". My point is, don't jump in to conclusion that you have sinusitis just because you have headache and stuffy nose.
Did you Know?
Manhei Nyahkai: This is amazing stuff. It will not only clear your fundamentals on some old English sayings , Read on.
1. In the 1400's a law was set forth in England that a man was allowed to beat his wife with a stick no thicker than his thumb. Hence we have 'The rule of thumb'
2. Many years ago in Scotland , a new game was invented. It was ruled 'Gentlemen Only, Ladies Forbidden' and thus the word GOLF entered into the English language.
3. Men can read smaller print than women can; women can hear better.
4. Coca-Cola was originally green.
5. It is impossible to lick your elbow.
6. Each king in a deck of playing cards represents a great king from history:
Spades - King David Hearts - Charlemagne Clubs -Alexander, the Great Diamonds - Julius Caesar
7. 111,111,111 x 111,111,111 = 12,345,678,987, 654,321
8. If a statue in the park of a person on a horse has both front legs in the air, the person died in battle. If the horse has one front leg in the air the person died as a result of wounds received in battle. If the horse has all four legs on the ground, the person died of natural causes.
9. Q - If you were to spell out numbers, how far would you have to go until you would find the letter 'A'?
A - One thousand
10. Q - What do bulletproof vests, fire escapes, windshield wipers, and laser printers all have in common?
A - All were invented by women.
11. Q - What is the only food that doesn't spoil?
A - Honey
12. In Shakespeare' s time, mattresses were secured on bed frames by ropes.
When you pulled on the ropes the mattress tightened, making the bed firmer to sleep on. Hence the phrase 'Goodnight, sleep tight.'
13. It was the accepted practice in Babylon 4,000 years ago that for a month after the wedding, the bride's father would supply his son-in-law with all the mead he could drink. Mead is a honey beer and because their calendar was lunar based, this period was called the honey month, which we know today as the honeymoon.
At least 75% of people who read this will try to lick their elbow!

Again, I realized that I shared a bunch of nice pizza recipes (see: tacos), but not the one I make practically every other time we make pizza for dinner: white pizza with caramelized onions. Continue reading
Pizzataschen (AKA Pizza Hamentashen)
Can you believe Purim is right around the corner!? Of course, our fellow bloggers are busy working on creative hamentaschen varieties. It's hard to compete with all of these delicious recipes, and we usually revert to our favorite original version, but this year we decided to go with a super simple, savory pizzataschen!
Kosher Vegetarian Moussaka
I'm an eggplant convert. I never ever used to eat it, but I've been experimenting with it lately, and really it's not so bad! The key is the salt drain—never skip it! I started off simply with eggplant parmesan, and eggplant with meat and tomato sauce, but now I'm going way out of my comfort zone with this vegetarian moussaka. Continue reading

Holiday Gift Guide—Kosher Foodies Edition
Not sure what to get your fellow foodie friend for Hanukkah this year? We're not big on gifts, but if someone wanted to send us something from this list, we wouldn't complain!
Here are some of our favorite things in the kitchen these days, along with some things we've been eyeing—might have to treat ourselves this holiday season! Continue reading
Cacio e Pepe Macaroni and Cheese
We're leaving town today for an extended Thanksgiving celebration, so I didn't want to go shopping to make dinner yesterday, even though we still had to eat. I still managed to feed my family a pantry and cook-everything-that-might-spoil kind of dinner. That's how this cacio e pepe mac & cheese came to be. Continue reading
Fassoulieh, or Great Northern Bean Stew
This is a classic Syrian dish. We often eat it on Shabbat, but really it's the perfect weeknight dinner. It's a make ahead meal, so you can make it on a weekend, pop it in the fridge, and heat it up, make rice and a salad or simple roasted veggie, and dinner is ready! Continue reading
Slow Cooked Veal Roast with Fresh Figs
I've only ever made veal roast in rubut, and while that's amazing and delicious, I wanted to try something new.
Fig season came to Brooklyn a little late this year, so we had extra time to think up recipes using fresh figs. Fall came a little late, too, and the idea of not turning my oven on was appealing last week while the air conditioning was shut off, but we still had summer temperatures inside my apartment. That's why when I found this recipe, I turned it into a CrockPot recipe.

Add me to cRc - eMail Kashrus Alerts
The following Passover programs by Agudath Israel will be available in the Chicago area:
Walgreens Extra Strength Pain Reliever Acetaminophen sold for adults whose dosage is almost identical to that of the ones produced for children, and it is recommended for Pesach and year round use. Your doctor should be able to tell you how to adjust the dosage for children.
There are very specific private label liquid ibuprofen drops sold for infants under the CVS, Rite Aid, and Walgreens brands which are recommended for year round and Pesach use. They are recommended only in either the 0.5 oz or the 1 oz package and only when the lot number begins with 007.
There is a chewable Walgreens ibuprofen tablet (Orange and Grape Flavors) which is recommended for year round and Pesach use.
If these are not available, you should consult with an Orthodox Rabbi for his suggetion.
As is the case with all medications used on Passover, they should be kept away from the kitchen and other food areas. All spoons, measuring cups, droppers, etc. that are used with the medications should also be kept away from the kitchen and other food areas.
To our knowledge, the only veggie wash that is acceptable for Passover use is Fit brand which is certified by the OU. It does not require a Passover certification on the label. We also recommend that one use a small amount of dish liquid in water, as it is acceptable for use year round as well as Passover and does a better job in removing insects.
The Following Lipsticks are Accepted for Passover Use Revlon - ColorStay Overtime Lipcolor Topcoat Lipstick (all varieties) Revlon - ColorStay Ultimate Suede Lipstick (all varieties) Revlon - Super Lustrous High Shine Lipstick (all varieties) Revlon - Super Lustrous Lipstick Cream (all varieties) Revlon - Super Lustrous Matte Lipstick (all varieties) Revlon - Super Lustrous Pearl Lipstick (all varieties)
Lancome - Baume In Love Lipstick (all varieties) Lancome - Color Design Lipstick (all varieties) Lancome - La Laque Fever Lipstick (all varieties) Lancome - L'absolu Nu Lipstick (all varieties) Lancome - L'absolu Rouge Lipstick (all varieties) Lancome - Rouge In Love Lipstick (all varieties) MAC - Dazzleglass (all varieties) MAC - Satin Lipstick (all varieties)
The Following Lipsticks are NOT RECOMMENDED for Passover
Revlon - ColorStay Overtime Lipcolor Basecoat Lipstick Revlon - Just Bitten Kissable Balm Stain Lipstick
MAC - Amplified Creme Lipstick (all varieties) MAC - Cremesheen Lipglass (all varieties) MAC - Cremesheen Lipstick (all varieties) MAC - Lustreglass (all varieties) MAC - Matte Lipstick (all varieties)
The cRc only accepts quinoa for Pesach that has a reliable certification for Passover. The following are accepted by the cRc:
Lemon and lime juice under the "Real" brand are accpetable for Passover with only the OU on the label. Passover certification is not necessary.
We have been informed by the OU that Reynolds non-stick foil and non-stick grill foil are acceptable for Pesach as is their regular aluminum foil.
Keurig machines do not need to be toveled but they cannot be kashered.
Nori, the seaweed sheets commonly used for sushi, is not recommended for use on Passover without a reliable Passover certification.
The following brands of parchment paper that are certified by the OU are also accepted for Passover use without Passover certification on the label.
Some of the common names of possible chometz alcohol listed as an ingredient in such things as cologne, perfume, hair spray and mouthwash are:
There is a fast spreading rumor that all new self-cleaning ovens are now made to operate with a much lower cleaning temperature that is not sufficient for kashering. The fact is that while some of the new ovens are indeed manufactured with these new specifications, many are still made with the older method of operating with a much higher temperature that would definitely qualify for kashering at libun gamur. One should check with the manufacturer's specs to determine the temperature which the self-cleaning mode operates.
Pedialyte freeze pops, liters, singles, and powder packs are acceptable for use on Passover as long as they bear an OU on the label. They are all kitniyos and are therefore only suitable for cholim.
Last year we were able to determine that Zen Soy brand soy milk was chometz free. Unfortunately, we are not able to make that distinction this year.
Last year we stated that all Dole and Fresh Express brands of fresh salads that are acceptable during the year are also acceptable for Pesach even without the "P" Passover designation on the bag. However, the Star K has stated that does not apply for 2014 and those bagged salads now require a Star K -P kosher for Passover certification.
Bagged vegetables such as pre-washed lettuce (other than Dole and Fresh Express brands), baby carrots, shredded carrots, shredded cabbage, raw cole slaw mix, etc. are acceptable for Passover use if they do not contain sensitive ingredients. However, they should be purchased prior to Passover and must be checked for insects when necessary.
On our Passover Shopping Guide we state that Lactaid brand milk is acceptable if purchased prior to Passover. This applies to the generic brands of lactose-free milk as well.
Dried chili peppers are fine for Pesach without hashgacha as long as they are pure, without additives and just dried.
Ground coffee beans (not instant coffee) packed at the coffee bean company that are not flavored or decaf, are fine without Passover certification. However, if the coffee is ground at a retail store, you must be certain that the grinding machine is completely clean, which may be close to impossible to do.
Starbucks VIA coffee is not certified for Passover.
Fox's U Bet syrups are accepted by the cRc for Passover and year-round use.
All Pompeian brand Grapeseed Oil is acceptable for Pesach with only the Star K on the label. The "P" Passover designation is not needed.
Spectrum brand unrefined coconut oil is kosher for Passover when bearing the OU on the label. Specific Passover certification is not necessary on the label.
All Green Mountain non-flavored and non-decaf "K" cups with the plain OU is acceptable for Pesach this year.
Once again there will be a Kosher for Passover Almond Milk produced by Lieber's that is under the certification of Rabbi Weismandel. This is preferable to the soy and rice milk listed in our Passover Guide which are kitniyos. It is also preferable to the almond milk listed which are only for cholim since they may be made on chometz equipment.
The following OU certified products are Kosher for Passover without special Passover certification.
There are basically two types of parchment paper, Quilon and Silicone. All Quilon type paper requires a reliable hashgacha during the year while the silicone type does not. Both require special Pesach certification. This is not to be confused with wax paper or freezer paper which do not require any certification during the year or for Pesach. All parchment paper under the certification of the Star K is permissible for Pesach even without Passover certification. The following brands certified by the OU do not require Passover certification:
Kirkland Member's Mark Reynolds
All Pillar Rock Salmon (with only salt and water added) in both cans and pouches is acceptable for Pesach with only the OU on the label. The "P" is not required.
ALL shelled pecans now require Passover certification. Other nuts, including chopped, remain acceptable without Passover certification if they are free of BHA and BHT, do not contain any added kosher for Passover sensitive ingredients such as flavoring and are not blanched or roasted. Peanuts are kitniyos.
K-Cup coffees and teas now require Passover certification even if the contents are just plain unflavored coffee and tea. The brewers may not be used on Yom Tov or Shabbos and the brewer must be one that is only used for Passover.
The following Gerber 2nd Foods baby food products are halachicly acceptable for use on Passover by infants and those that are ill when bearing an OU on the label. There may be some Passover issues such as kitniyos, so special precautions should be made accordingly. Carrots Green Beans Peas Squash
Joyva products are certified by the Kof K during the year but they remove their certification for Pesach due to the corn starch being used.
******************************************************************************* The following are some brands of raisins that do not require special Pesach certification if they are not oil treated. The OU alone is sufficient. The "P" is not required.
Click HERE for information on rice that is certified for use on Passover by Sephardim.
Although cRc certified during the majority of the year, certain packages of products manufactured by the following companies may have the cRc logo removed or covered during a short period after Passover. Please be careful to check those products as the cRc does not certify those specific items unless the cRc is on each package.
The following Chicagoland stores are either owned by gentiles or have arranged to sell their chometz for Passover. Please check with your local kashrus agency for details regarding stores outside of the Chicago area.

Quotable Lyrics
"You remind me of my coupe, I wanna ride
Something like my gun, I wanna pump it baby
You can be anywhere in the world, but you're here with me
Tonight I'm giving that shotta luv, luv
Tonight I'm giving that shotta luv, luv
Tonight I'm giving that shotta luv, luv
Hit her office, toughest, put it in her service
All my cars got curtains, tell them niggas, it's currents"

Comics A.M. | Taking a closer look at the convention boom
Conventions | Rob Salkowitz, author of Comic-Con and the Business of Pop Culture, looks at the uptick in comics conventions — he pegs ticket sales at $600 million, which is 80 percent of the dollar value of the whole comics market — and discusses some recent events and trends, including the new cons that are popping up all over and the increased international interest in connvetions outside the United States.

Help Ace Kilroy fight the vampire Nazis
Here's a two-fisted webcomic for fans of Clark Gable and old action movies: Ace Kilroy, the story of a Gable-esque tough guy who is sent by his good friend, President Franklin Roosevelt, to investigate a Nazi plot to harness vampires and other supernatural creatures to further their cause. Ace is a smart guy, but in true B-movie fashion, he knows when to let his fists do the talking. And the strip is smart, too—that's Secretary of State Cordell Hull hovering in the middle panel, behind FDR. I bet he doesn't show up in too many comics these days.
The webcomic launched on Halloween (of course!), and it updates daily, with a big color comic on Sundays. The archives are a quick read, and there's also a nicely designed dossier on the characters that shows that creators Rob Kelly and Dan O'Connor have really put some thought into this comic and are in it for the long haul. Kelly and O'Connor are trying to raise enough money via Kickstarter to work exclusively on the comic for a while, as well as to start work on a print edition and do some publicity. The Kickstarter campaign runs through this Wednesday, so if you like what you see, don't dally! Awards include, in typical 1930s fashion, membership in Ace's Allies, which I can only hope includes a secret decoder ring.

Nuclear receptors (NR) classically regulate gene expression by stimulating transcription upon binding to their cognate ligands. It is now well established that NR-mediated transcriptional activation requires the recruitment of coregulator complexes, which facilitate recruitment of the basal transcription machinery through direct interactions with the basal transcription machinery and/or through chromatin remodeling. However, a number of recently described NR coactivators have been implicated in cross-talk with other nuclear processes including RNA splicing and DNA repair. T:G mismatch-specific thymine DNA glycosylase (TDG) is required for base excision repair of deaminated methylcytosine. Here we show that TDG is a coactivator for estrogen receptor (ER). We demonstrate that TDG interacts with ER in vitro and in vivo and suggest a separate role for TDG to its established role in DNA repair. We show that this involves helix 12 of ER. The region of interaction in TDG is mapped to a putative -helical motif containing a motif distinct from but similar to the LXXLL motif that mediates interaction with NR. Together with recent reports linking TFIIH in regulating NR function, our findings provide new data to further support an important link between DNA repair proteins and nuclear receptor function.
