Holiday Gift Ideas: Chocolate-Chocolate Chip Cookies
I'm busy baking for my annual gift boxes. These won't be in them, because I"m working on two new cookie recipes I've never tried my hand at before. More on that later…
These are pretty and very tasty. They're easy and just a touch above regular chocolate chip cookies.
Chocolate-Chocolate Chip Cookies
- 1 cup + 2 tbsp butter
- 1 cup dark brown sugar
- 1/2 cup sugar
- 2 eggs
- 2 tsp vanilla
- dash of salt
- 1 tsp baking soda
- 2 cups flour
- 1/3 cup unsweetened cocoa
- 2 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 1 cup nuts (walnuts, hazelnuts, almonds or peanuts), chopped
mixing bowl and cookie sheet
Preheat oven to 350 degrees
Cream together butter and sugars. Add eggs and vanilla, mixing well. Sift together salt, soda, flour and cocoa, then add to butter mixture, blending well. Add nuts and chocolate chips. Spoon onto cookie sheet and bake at 350 degrees for 10-12 minutes. Cool on cooling rack.

Pumpkin Buttermilk Bundt Cake
This was a much more successful pumpkin recipe. Very moist, very flavorful And if you're creative, you can make it look like a pumpkin. Because I'm at high altitude, I should have remembered to add 2 tbsp extra flour. Next time.
Pumpkin Buttermilk Bundt Cake
- 2-1/4 cup flour
- 2 tsp baking powder
- 1 tsp baking soda
- 4 Tbsp buttermilk powder
- 3 tsp pumpkin spice
- 1 tsp cinnamon
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 15 oz can of pumpkin (not pumpkin pie filling)
- 3/4 cup butter, softened
- 1-1/4 cups sugar
- 3 large eggs
- 1 tsp vanilla
- 3/4 cup water
- 1 -1/2 cups powdered sugar
- 2 tbsp milk (more or less as needed)
- 1 tsp vanilla
bowls, bundt pan
Butter and flour bundt pan generously. In bowl, whisk together dry ingredients. In a large bowl, beat together butter and sugar until fluffy (about 3 minutes), add eggs, beat 1 minute. Add pumpkin and vanilla and beat on low until incorporated, scraping sides frequently. Alternate adding the flour mixture and water until all are incorporated with the pumpkin mixture and batter is smooth.
Spoon into the bundt pan and gently tap pan on the counter to remove any bubbles and even out the batter.
Bake at 350 degrees until a wooden skewer comes out clean, about 45 to 50 minutes. Let cool for 15 minutes, then invert on a plate and remove from bundt pan. Let cool completely before frosting.
Icing: Add vanilla to powdered sugar and then slowly add milk until mixture is smooth. Pour evenly over cooled cake. (I added yellow and red food coloring for some Halloween fun)
Pumpkin Squares Revisted
I make these every year and they disappear quickly. This year was no different. Not all my pumpkin creations are a success. Playing around with an oatmeal pumpkin cookie, I came up with an inedible concoction. Luckily Bixby and his playmates were not quite so discerning, so it wasn't a complete waste of ingredients. I was glad to whip a batch of squares up after that to restore my faith in my own cooking.
- 4 eggs
- 1-2/3 cup sugar
- 1 cup oil or butter
- 15 oz can pumpkin (not pie filling)
- 2 cups flour
- 2 tsp baking powder
- 2 tsp cinnamon
- 1 tsp salt
- 1 tsp baking soda
- 2 tsp pumpkin spice (less if desired, I like them spicy)
mixing bowl & 13×9 baking dish, greased
Beat eggs, sugar, butter & pumpkin together, add dry ingredients, mixing well. Spread into baking dish, bake at 350° for 25-30 minutes. Cool & frost (frosting below). These are rich, so I would cut them into at least 24 squares.
- 16 oz cream cheese, room temp
- 2 tsp vanilla extract
- 3-3/4 cups powdered sugar
mixing bowl
Mix together cream cheese, sugar & vanilla. Mix until smooth.
You can frost & freeze in an air-tight container for up to 2 weeks. Enjoy.

Shrimp, Ham, and Kale in a Garlic, Lemon, and Butter Sauce
We watched an episode on The Food Network where a New Orleans joint offers a dish called Shrimp Magazine – named for the street where the restaurant is sited. I watched the chef prepare the dish on the video a few times and figured I had it down. A few days pass and I am less sure but I forge ahead. The only recipe a search turned up looked close but seemed a little off from my memory. The chef dredged the shrimp in seasoned flour and sauteed them in butter, turning once to brown both sides and then started adding all the rest of the ingredients: Artichoke hearts, diced ham, tons of garlic, lemon zest and juice, grated Parmesan, green onions, chopped basil, white wine, and salt and pepper – serving it all over angel hair pasta. I went with kale instead of artichoke hearts and didn't add the basil.
I knew the shrimp wouldn't like being with the kale as it cooked down so I removed it to a dish as soon as it was done and only added it back to the pan with the cooked pasta to toss prior to plating. I used white wine to help break down the kale and added lemon juice and zest along with salt and pepper. I minced at least six cloves of garlic, using some with the shrimp as it cooked, the rest after the shrimp were removed, along with a bit of olive oil.
Everything worked pretty well although I wish the ham had a better dice, I chopped some thin sliced ham that helped the flavor but did nothing for texture. I think next time I may use crispy bacon lardons. Mmm… bacon!
Oh, and I need a better name for it.
Bourbon Baked Apple Crisp
Wandering around the web today, someone posted a recipe for Bourbon Baked Apples. Hmmm, I have bourbon. I have apples. Guess I need to bake some Bourbon Apples, stuffed with oatmeal crumble.
Bourbon Baked Apple Crisp
- 4 large favorite apple
- 1/2 cup oats
- 1/2 cup packed brown sugar
- 1/4 cup flour
- 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
- dash of salt
- 1/4 cup softened butter
- 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
- 1 cup apple cider
- 1/4 to 1/2 cup bourbon (depending on taste – you can substitute more cider if you prefer)
- vanilla ice cream
In a bowl, combine oats, brown sugar, flour, salt and cinnamon. Add softened butter and vanilla, and mix thoroughly. You want it to be crumbly.
Cut the top off the apple, enough to use as a lid. Scoop out core and seeds, being careful not to pierce the bottom of the apple. Sprinkle with additional cinnamon if desired and then stuff with the oats mixture, packing it in and covering out to the edges of the apple. Place the top of the apple back on and press down.
Place apples in a large baking dish. Pour apple cider and bourbon in the bottom of the pan. Place in a 400 degree oven and bake for 30 to 45 minutes, until skin is soft and wrinkled and flesh is soft. During the baking period, baste every 10 minutes with the cider/bourbon mix.
Serve immediately with ice cream.

WineSimple Introduces Ground-Breaking New App To Benefit Wine Retailers And Consumers
SAN FRANCISCO, April 11, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- San Francisco-based WineSimple ( www.winesimple.com) announced the launch of its mobile app that uses a proprietary matching algorithm to recommend specific bottles of wine to consumers based on their individual taste preferences. By offering personalized recommendations, WineSimple takes the complexity and jargon out of wine giving retailers a more effective way to market wine and consumers the confidence to try new wines.
The WineSimple app initially identifies a consumer's taste preferences using the WineSimple Taste Quiz™ and then suggests those wines specifically matched to those preferences. When a consumer rates wines, WineSimple's matching algorithm learns more about that consumer's likes and dislikes and fine tunes the recommendations for that individual in real time.
Recommendations work best if the product is available where the consumer is shopping. Therefore, WineSimple uses geolocation services to identify when a consumer is at a participating retailer's store and recommends wines that are both matched to the consumer and available at that location.
WineSimple also offers a better way to buy wine as a gift. Instead of picking a wine for a friend based on price, a WineSimple user can view a list of recommended wines for his/her friend who uses the app. In addition, whenever a consumer views his/her list of recommended wines, the app indicates whether a specific wine is also a match for his/her friend.
"Lots of products tout being the Pandora of this or that," said Will Glaser, advisor to WineSimple and co-founder of Pandora™. "I've looked at WineSimple's approach in detail and it's extremely well thought out and effective. I'm totally comfortable with their claim that WineSimple is Pandora for wine." The WineSimple app offers wine retailers a better way to help the 80 million consumers who purchase wine each year. Many of those consumers are overwhelmed or confused by the number of wine choices and are looking for help in narrowing the options to those wines they will enjoy and are available where they are shopping.Check Out Our Best Services for Investors

Jan. 12, 2012
Coming off their most successful regular season since 2004, the Mizzou women's tennis team looks to take the next step in 2012 under the leadership of first-year Head Coach Sasha Schmid. A successful coach at Stetson University, Schmid turned around the Hatter program and posted a record of 49-21 the last three seasons.
Schmid will have help on the sidelines, as Assistant Coach Jason Potthoff joined the staff in June. He is Mizzou's first-ever full-time assistant coach, as all previous assistants were at the part-time level. Additionally, the Tigers will once again be able to host outdoor home matches at home in 2012 with the completion of six new outdoor courts at the Green Tennis Center.
Thanks in part to the recent fall season, Schmid says the team is now fully acclimated to her system and can build on what in learned in the fall and put it toward the spring season.
"There was definitely a transition process in the beginning of the fall but we kind of hit our stride at the end of the September," Schmid said. "Once they got used to how we run practice and our expectations, it was great."
"Our goal is to be excellent," Schmid said. "That changes as the season goes on because we'll continue to be a work in progress, in that we're continuing to improve and reach our potential. That we're excellent in everything, behavior on the court, desire to be the best, work hard, in the classroom and teammates to each other and respectful of each other. That's always what we're working to do and there's never really a finish line to that."
"But in general, the team has a core of really good competitors," Schmid added. "They're tough, they're getting tougher but we don't think they even realize how tough they can be yet. They are going to compete. As coaches, that's the foundation and the one thing that you can't always change. We're really happy. They're really hungry and they want to go out and play hard."
The Tigers return four players from last year's squad and add the services of three newcomers, a senior transfer and two freshmen. Schmid will look to veteran senior Jamie Mera and senior transfer Nina Pantic to provide leadership during the season. A native of Tampa, Fla., Mera compiled a 15-10 singles record as a junior last season, including a win over Taylor Ormond of No. 7 Baylor.
"Jamie's really excited to have an excellent senior year," Schmid said. "She's a solid player who brings a ton of experience to the team and a lot of stability to the team as a leader. She has really high expectations so it's been fun to see her really buy in to our program and embrace making the most of her final season."
Pantic is a UCLA transfer who earned her bachelor's degree in December and is now enrolled in Missouri's School of Journalism's graduate program. The Lake Worth, Fla., native was the nation's No. 4 overall recruit coming out of high school, earned a Pac-10 Conference singles title as a sophomore and was a part of a Bruins team that made the NCAA Final Four a season ago.
"Nina brings a really high level of experience playing, that's a perspective that really helps our team as we try to move our program forward," Schmid said. "I think she's going to be someone who will be a tremendous player in singles and doubles for us. She has really bought into the program we have at Missouri and wants to help start our first year on a strong note."
Joining Mera and Pantic as upperclassmen are a pair of juniors, Maria Christensen and Annamijn Koenen. Christensen, who hails from Hellerup, Denmark, is coming off an effective sophomore season after posting an overall record of 16-8 in singles action, which included a 7-4 mark in Big 12 play.
"Maria is a tremendous talent and a tremendous competitor, I think she's really going to be someone who is going to be anxious to get on the court and play her best tennis," Schmid said. "She's in great shape and I think she's going to be able to get herself to a higher level this season playing against a higher level of opponent.
Koenen earned two straight set wins a year ago, her first at Mizzou after transferring from Arkansas, before but missed a lot of time due to injuries. She is now healthy and ready to help the Tigers.
"Annamijn came back in the last tournament in the fall and had a really good showing at Regionals," Schmid said. "I know she wants to springboard after that. She has a lot of natural talent in doubles and she will really be able to contribute with us. It will be really fun for her to be healthy and to get a lot of matches under her belt."
Schmid also has three underclassmen on the roster, sophomore Rachel Stuhlmann and freshman Alex Clark and Ashleigh Chiaf.
Stuhlmann returns for her second year with the program after a successful inaugural campaign. The St. Louis, Mo., native finished with a 19-11 mark in singles play last year, including an 8-3 record in Big 12 matches.
"Rachel is coming off of a really strong freshman year," Schmid said. "She's looking to improve her game and take it to the next level. She's really worked hard in all aspects in changing and making some improvements."
A native of London, England, freshman Alex Clark comes to Missouri after a successful prep career. In International Tennis Federation competition, she advanced to the quarterfinals in four singles tournaments and the quarterfinals or better in 11 doubles tournaments, including one final. This fall, Clark claimed a singles title in the Wake Forest Invitational in September.
"I think as the season goes on we'll continue to see Alex get better and better," Schmid said. "She's a huge talent and she really has no limit on what she can do this year. We're really excited to put her in a lot of matches and let her grow."
Chiaf, who hails from Edmond, Okla., helped her high school team to four consecutive state titles. She was undefeated as a freshman, sophomore and junior in doubles action and lost only one match as senior at No. 1 singles.
"We tweaked probably every part of (Ashleigh's) game," Schmid said. "She's been a great sport about it. She's really going to be excited to put all those new things in her game, her new strategy and her new mentality into competition. Now she just needs to play a lot of matches and let it all settle in. She's in a great position to do really well this spring."
The 2012 slate will be as challenging as they come, with 12 of the Tigers' 21 regular season matches against opponents ranked in the preseason rankings. After opening the season at the Indiana Invitational Jan. 14-16, the team travels to No. 20 Notre Dame (Jan. 22) and No. 7 Georgia (Jan. 27), where they will also face either No. 66 Fresno State or No. 72 Florida International.
Mizzou opens the home portion of the schedule on Feb. 4 as the team hosts Arkansas-Fort Smith. In all, the squad has eight home matches on the slate, including four against Big 12 foes.
"We have a very difficult schedule, it's really challenging. We have a lot of road matches against a lot of good teams. I just want to start the season and see what exactly happens."

Tours are an ideal way to learn more about a new city without resorting to drastic measures such as running for mayor. Get acquainted with this Groupon.
Choose Between Two Options
- $11.50 for a scenic train ride for two (up to a $23 value)
- $23 for a scenic train ride for four (up to a $46 value)
This Groupon is valid for Saturday and Wednesday rides, which are listed on the schedule and include themed excursions. Guests board a vintage passenger car built between 1919 and 1932 for a 90-minute journey through western Michigan's fields and farms. The train travels from Coopersville to Marne, where riders can disembark and watch the locomotive turn around the old-fashioned way. Each car is equipped with a restroom, and two cars are air-conditioned.
Children under 2 years old may ride the train for free. Children aged 2–12 are $9.50.
The Coopersville & Marne Railway Company
The Coopersville & Marne Railway Company whisks riders back in time aboard passenger cars from the early 1900s, a diesel locomotive built in 1952, and tracks laid in 1858. Trained volunteers dressed in period uniforms welcome passengers, who then set out on a route through scenic fields and family-owned farmlands as a soundtrack of 1800s train music plays in the background. Throughout the ride, the conductor shares stories about the train and its route, filled with glimpses of deer, wild turkeys, and eagles, as well as several flowing creeks. Upon request, passengers may join the engineer in his cab to see how the train works or perform duets of "The Ballad of Casey Jones."
The railway company regularly hosts special events aboard its trains, including the Great Train Robbery, a Wild West–themed escapade with volunteers playing Jesse James, the Earp brothers, and other legendary figures. To celebrate the holidays, the company operates a Santa train where kids can meet Kris Kringle; a bunny train with a walking, talking Easter bunny; and a fall-themed ride that includes a visit to a pumpkin patch.
85% of 378 customers recommend
"it is awesome!"
"Had a great time with our 3 year old grandsons. Everyone was extremely friendly and we enjoyed the day immensely. Thank you."
"Don't expect too much, but it is a nice ride if you like trains."

Linux Journal Contents #174, October 2008
This month's focus is Languages. Parlez-Vous Français? Wait, not those types of languages, programming languages. We've got a few different ones this time around: Inform, Sleep and Falcon. And, on a more traditional front, Guido Van Rossum talks about Python 3000. Our monthly columns also include discussions of JavaScript, PHP using Eclipse, and bash, and Chef Marcel talks about languages more generally. On other fronts, if you're interested in audio, we've got part II of Dave Phillips' Linux Audio series; Kyle Rankin shows you how to connect some musical instruments to your system and use them with a number of audio programs; and Dan Sawyer shows you where to store all that audio data in his review of the HP Media Valut. All that and more in this month's issue of Linux Journal.
Interview with Guido van Rossum
by James Gray
The new Python 3000 is bounding beyond Python 2. Python creator Guido van Rossum explains why you've got to try it.
A Tale of Two Languages
by Daniel Bartholomew
Not all programming languages are created for automating spreadsheets and device drivers—some, like Inform 6 and 7, were created specifically for making games.

Review of Scalent's Virtual Operating Environment
by Logan G. Harbaugh
In Every Issue
As Linux continues to play an ever increasing role in corporate data centers and institutions, ensuring the integrity and protection of these systems must be a priority. With 60% of the world's websites and an increasing share of organization's mission-critical workloads running on Linux, failing to stop malware and other advanced threats on Linux can increasingly impact an organization's reputation and bottom line.

Most companies incorporate backup procedures for critical data, which can be restored quickly if a loss occurs. However, fewer companies are prepared for catastrophic system failures, in which they lose all data, the entire operating system, applications, settings, patches and more, reducing their system(s) to "bare metal." After all, before data can be restored to a system, there must be a system to restore it to.
In this one hour webinar, learn how to enhance your existing backup strategies for better disaster recovery preparedness using Storix System Backup Administrator (SBAdmin), a highly flexible bare-metal recovery solution for UNIX and Linux systems.

Online College ArticlesCampus College ArticlesRepresenting the cultural heritage and natural treasures of each state or the entire US Nevada Symbols
National & State Symbols
Nevada State Slogan"Battle Born"Adopted on March 26, 1937"Battle Born", the state slogan, was adopted on March 26, 1937. It means Nevada became the 36th state in the union, during the Civil War. Because of Nevada's inextricable ties to the Civil War, people still commonly mistake "Battle Born" as the state motto, Rocha said. It doesn't help that the nickname appears on the state flag and has been in use just as long as the actual motto. Thomas Fitch, who would go on to represent Nevada in Congress, is credited with coining the term "battle born" during Nevada's second constitutional convention, in 1864. The official state seal was selected at the same convention. Battle Born is "about as old as 'All for Our Country,'" Rocha said, "and I suspect the confusion is just as old." Nevada State Slogan: "Battle Born"Having achieved statehood in the midst of the Civil War, the Battle Born state has not only encouraged but also prospered from its errant image. Equally evident is the unconventional, rebellious, and anti-government reputation associated with Nevadans who, regardless of their location, have proven themselves proud and fiercely loyal to their state. Indeed, from 1937 to 1950, the state legislature approved of a state slogan designed to appear on all official stationery and advertising publications: "Nevada, one state without an income tax, a corporation tax, an inheritance tax, a gift tax, a sales tax. With cheap power, and liberal mining, corporation, taxation, and other laws. Welcome to Nevada." This slogan was repealed in 1951. |

Slim fit/Tailor fit Jacket?
Hey guys and girls,
I'm not to good in the jacket department so I'm looking for a slim fit jacket with some length to it. Something I can take on the hill on a warmer day and use it on the streets. Doesn't really matter if it's a shell or not. Post up whatever you know of and i'll take a look at it. I found this Thieves Jacket | Cappel Snowboard Jackets | Ride Snowboards 2011-2012 Seems like it's a more tailor fit. Looking for stuff like that. I'm 6',1" if that helps. Thanks! |
Have you checked out Holden? Also, L1 might have something you're looking for. |
1 Attachment(s)
L1, Holden, 686xFallen, AirBlaster, thirtyTwo.
I'll second people's thoughts on Holden. I'm 6' and 170 lbs. and Holden jackets fit perfectly.
This drives me crazy on all kinds of tops (jackets, shirts, sweaters, etc).
I have a 40" chest and a 31" waist. My chest puts me in a medium and my waist puts me in a small with just about every company. If I go medium the chest fits good but my waist is way to baggy. If I go small my chest is way too tight. I wish companies would start making a more athletic tailored fit. |
i have the thieves jacket. i really like it. i was unsure about getting a slim fit jacket and how i would look in it (i am 6'1' 165) but i have received a great many compliments on it and i havent seen anyone else with anyone remotely similar. i have also worn it out for things other than snowboarding and it looks rad as a street jacket. any other question let me know.
Backcountry.com's house brand stoic makes slim fit jackets that have some really good tech in them. And they aren't ridiculously priced either. I've had the bombshell for 2 years and really like it.
Id look at ski jacket brands. They are much more tailored then most boarding jackets. Spyder makes nice stiff, and so does Toni Sailer (although pricey).
Thanks for the input guys! I think i'm going to go for the Cappel jacket.
Does anyone have any idea how thick is the Pace jacket from Holden? Is it just a shell or does it have some insulation? Im looking at a great deal online...

PROS AND CONS: In N.Y., Phil Mushnick noted Converse dropping Latrell Sprewell for behavior "inexcusable and unsportsmanlike." Mushnick: "What a farce. This is the same Converse that last season won a bidding war with Nike for [Dennis] Rodman" (N.Y. POST, 12/7). But in Miami, Greg Cote gave "cheers" to Converse and told readers, "Show your appreciation. Take out a loan and buy a pair of Converse shoes" (MIAMI HERALD, 12/6)....Carolyn Davidson, who created Nike's swoosh logo, was featured on "Extra." Nike CEO Phil Knight said he didn't like the design when he first saw it: "That's just my nature. I don't ever like anything" ("Extra," 12/5)....Reds GM Jim Bowden contacted Nike "to suggest the repositioning" of spikes on the bottom of its cleats after three Reds players who wear Nikes have had bone and foot injuries (CINCINNATI POST, 12/7). OTHER NOTES: In Philadelphia, Bobby Hoying jerseys have become "this year's version of the Tickle Me Elmo doll ... high-demand, low supply." The Eagles made Hoying jerseys available through their AOL site on Wednesday and sold 21 jerseys in six hours (PHILADELPHIA INQUIRER, 12/6)....Mark Messier shot a new TV commercial for Lay's Potato Chips that will run nationally in the new year (VANCOUVER SUN, 12/7). NOTES: Imperial Tobacco announced Friday its decision to pull $50M in sports and cultural sponsorships effective October '98, putting the finances of sports and cultural events across Canada "into uncertainty." Imperial Tobacco parent company, Imasco, is a "major" sponsor of Toronto's Molson Indy (TORONTO SUN, 12/8)....Despite selling its in- stadium signage to Casio for World Cup '98, A-B will air three TV spots on network and cable TV World Cup broadcasts as part of its ad campaign (AD AGE, 12/8).

The Art Of Love & War, Angie Stone's Stax Records Debut In-Stores October 16
First single, "Baby" has garnered over 15,000 spins to date
Appearances on "Tavis Smiley," "Ellen" and "Jimmy Kimmel" scheduled
LOS ANGELES CA, October 12, 2007—Angie Stone's debut CD, THE ART OF LOVE & WAR, the marquee release on the newly-reactivated Stax Records label, will be in-stores next week, on Tuesday, October 16.
The CD's first single, "Baby," is currently #2 on both the R&R and Mediabase Urban AC charts with over 15,000 spins to date, reaching an audience of over 136 million listeners. Produced by Co-T and featuring R&B/soul/gospel great Betty Wright, "Baby" has an irresistible groove. The song, "My People," has become an anthem for the survivors of New Orleans' 9th Ward and was personally selected by Essence Magazine Publisher, Susan Taylor as the theme song for this year's Essence Festival.
Angie will make appearances on "The Tavis Smiley Show" on Monday, October 15, and "The Ellen DeGeneres Show" and "Jimmy Kimmel Live" on Tuesday, October 16.
Newsweek says of the new CD, "…(Stone is) one of the strongest soul singers to come along in decades…Her leagues-above voice and commercialism-be-damned attitude (and) Stone's powerful delivery and raw, emotive songs definitely command some major R-E-S-P-E-C-T."
"I'm happy and I'm blessed," Angie explains. "Everything in life is a journey, and THE ART OF LOVE & WAR defines this time and this place in my life."
The new CD is an exuberant statement of Stone's artistry. Stone's previous work earned her the reputation of a modern-day Aretha, rejuvenating classic R&B with her incomparable soul-baring intensity. She has found that and more with, THE ART OF LOVE & WAR, in many ways a creative rebirth. And Stax, with its legacy of gritty Southern-steeped soul, is her ideal home.

SBV to bail out banks in trouble
HA NOI — Insolvent banks unable to cover payment demands from depositors will receive support from the State Bank of Viet Nam or other commercial banks if their defaults were likely to have a negative impact on the entire banking system, according to a new circular issued by the central bank last week.
Issuance of Circular No 06 is also being viewed as an opening salvo in the regulatory process required to implement the nation's plan to re-organise the banking industry by 2015.
Under the circular, the State Bank would play a key role in requiring stronger credit institutions to refinance debt loads for weaker banks or would provide financing directly.
Credit institutions which have lost their payment capacity due to serious problems will receive loans at preferential rates equivalent to the re-financing interest rate announced by the central bank. If the banks receiving the support fail to repay the loans when due, they will be charged interest on past due amounts at 1.5 times of the initial rates.
The borrowers must use funds from preferential loans to pay their individual depositors. Using the loan proceeds to cover institutional depositors may proceed with the approval of the State Bank Governor.
A number of banks have low liquidity because they have used short-term deposits to fund medium- and long-term lending. Under pressure to meet credit growth and profit forecasts, banks have also lent a significant amount of money to the high-risk real estate and securities industries.
Although the central bank has allowed banks to use up to 30 per cent of short-term deposits for medium- and long-term loans, a number of banks have lent up to 70 per cent. At a meeting held in Ha Noi last week, State Bank Governor Nguyen Van Binh said that the nation now had nine poorly-performing credit institutions. These were now under supervision by the central bank in order to prepare for their reorganisation.
Under a plan approved by Prime Minister Nguyen Tan Dung earlier this month to restructure the banking by 2015, domestic commercial banks would be classified into three groups – healthy, temporarily short of liquidity, and fragile – in order for authorities to approve suitable measures, such as re-organisation, merger or acquisition, reform of risk management systems, or the interference of the State Bank or other agencies. — VNS

A little over a year ago, I won an international competition to be the citizen representative of Hopenhagen at the U.N. climate conference in Copenhag...
Read Whole Story
Winning this opportunity is an enormous honor--especially because many other contestants were worthy and capable of representing you. I thus asked a few other contestants for their messages of hope.
The talks at Copenhagen failed not just because of world leaders, but also due to the fact that while many people of the world say they want action on climate change, they rate the issue as a low priority.
The important people are your friends and your friends' friends...They are the people who you can influence.
By the end of this weekend's protests in Copenhagen, around 1,100 people had been arrested. The arrests, part of a pattern all week, felt like a warning: deviations from the "Hopenhagen" message will not be tolerated.
It's halfway through the conference, negotiations have barely moved an inch, and climate advocates are enraged at the lack of progress. How and why did we lose the dream of Hopenhagen?
Right now we are trapped in a dangerous cycle: borrowing money from China to buy oil from the Persian Gulf, and then burn it in ways that destroys the planet. Every bit of that has got to change.
With the countdown to COP15 under way, Hopenhagen.org will be releasing three videos these next few weeks to bring voice to the citizens of Hopenhagen...
Most people don't know it, but the fate of the world is at stake this December. The UN is holding a Climate Conference in Copenhagen, Denmark where th...
At the Brandenburg gate, which once sat in "no-man's land" between East and West Berlin, I wondered if, 20 years from now, abandoned coal power plants will be nothing more than museums.
Today young people are being turned away from the Bella Center in droves because far too many passes were given out by the United Nations.
Good news in Hopenhagen yesterday was the bold and binding proposal tabled by a group of small island countries in a last minute scrum against the backdrop of youth activists who had turned up.
It is the poorest and least responsible who are having to bear the brunt of the climate challenge as rising temperatures exacerbate poverty, hunger and vulnerability to disease for billions of people.
We are uniquely poised now, with the support of our barrier-breaking and visionary president, to chart an un-navigated course with innovation and sustainability as our guides. We have a renewable commitment to change.
It's not just world leaders who carry an enormous responsibility to improve the globe's climate in the future; the responsibility also weighs on individual cities and individual people.
On December 7, leaders from 192 countries will gather in Copenhagen to determine the future of our planet.
Al Gore reminded us today of how far we've come. He recalled that in Kyoto, only one head of state was in attendance. Now over 160 arrived to negotiate.
I asked Desmond "What gives you hope that we can solve climate change?"
Pointing the country toward a clean energy future is going to be a big job, requiring the skills of all of us -- carpenters, metal fabricators, tool and dye makers, scientists, truck drivers, software designers, engineers and others.

The generation that is coming of age right now is gaining insight about environmental issues that were foreign to generations before them. They understand the magnitude of their decisions.
A deal of sort has been sealed in Copenhagen. At 3:30 p.m. Saturday afternoon the 15th United Nations Climate Change Conference officially came to a close.
The Bella Center, the epicenter for Copenhagen's COP 15 climate negotiations, can hold 15,000 people, but over 30,000 were given accreditation.
Before becoming an official "ambassador," I first needed to meet the people who selected me, and I also had to learn what exactly Hopenhagen is.

For most children's migraines, placebos as good as pills: study
REUTERS - A drug-free placebo pill prevents migraines in children and teens just as well as most headache medicines, according to a U.S. study.
Researchers published in JAMA Pediatrics found that only two drugs known to help migraine-plagued adults reduced the frequency of children's headaches better than a placebo. Even in those cases the effect was small - a difference of less than one headache per month compared to the dummy pills.
According to data from the Cleveland Clinic, about 2 percent of young children and 7 to 10 percent of older children and teenagers up to age 15 get migraines.
No drugs have been rigorously tested and approved for preventing migraines in children, so doctors have to rely on medicine for adults, experts said.
"All the drugs in our analysis have been found effective in adults with migraine headaches, but few were beneficial among children," wrote study leader Jeffrey Jackson from the medical College of Wisconsin in Milwaukee, and colleagues.
"This suggests there may be something different about pediatric migraines or that the response to treatment differs between children and adults."
In the study, Jackson and his colleagues looked at 21 trials comparing headache drugs to each other or to placebos. They found that only topiramate (marketed as Topamax) and trazodone (Oleptro and Desyrel) significantly reduced the frequency of headaches in children and teens who got regular migraines.
Other adult headache prevention medicines, including flunarizine, propanolol and valproate, were of no help.
"Parents should be aware that our medication choices aren't as good as they should be," said Jennifer Bickel, a neurologist and headache specialist at Children's Mercy Hospitals and Clinics in Kansas City, Missouri, who was not part of the study.
Placebo pills alone led to a drop in children's headache frequency from between five and six headaches per month to three per month, which might have to do with the effect of seeing a doctor and being reassured the pain isn't due to anything serious, Bickel said.
She said there is the least research on the one percent of children who are most severely affected by migraines, those with chronic daily headaches.
For those youth, "we don't have any evidence to suggest that the medications are enough," she said.
According to a report from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration published in the same journal issue, two drugs - almotriptan malate (Axert) and rizatriptan benzoate (Maxalt) - are approved to treat, but not prevent, headaches in children and teens.
For children who get headaches once a week or less, Bickel said the pain can be treated with over-the-counter painkillers, or even just wait it out in a quiet place. SOURCE: bit.ly/PoqxGc (Reporting from New York by Genevra Pittman at Reuters Health; editing by Elaine Lies)

For the past number of years the Super Monkey ball series of games has been on of my favourites. For pure Arcade pick up and play, addictive fun there are few better franchises out there and I have spent many an hour playing these titles. Thus when I bought my 3DS recently I immediately managed to get hold of Super Monkey Ball 3D to go with it.
With in excess of 75 levels, all with new designs this will keep you busy and fans and new players alike will find this fresh and with plenty of great new ideas as you would expect from Sega. You also get a few mini games including monkey race and monkey fight but the sad thing is whereas previous titles have had 50+ mini games, this only has the two.
All in all this is a wonderful pure gaming title that is fun to play for all ages, challenging for all ages and addictive. Maybes lacks the fun of mini games from other titles in the series but still a worthy addition to any collection!

Rate as somewhat helpful
The review is not always objective or founded on evidence from the author's experience. The presentation and structure are unclear.
Rate as very helpful
The review covers a wide range of product features and the author's position is clearly-explained, well-structured and founded, for the most part, on solid evidence. This review would be of great use to somebody making a product choice, but would have to be used in conjunction with other information sources.
Rate as not helpful
The review is not a helpful decision-making aid. The information it provides is subjective and lacks foundation. Perhaps the content contains comments which do not relate to the product and may be offensive to other members.
Rate as helpful
The review is accurate and clear. The author may not provide complete information but what (s)he does say is useful. The review would give readers an idea of the quality of the product.
Rate as off topic
Reviews relating to products in other categories, or those which stray onto unrelated subjects should be rated "off topic". This will let other readers know that they need not read the review when seeking information that would be useful in a purchase decision.

"Yes, we have had a reversal of the wealth effect but it has been very significantly tempered by the continued existence of growth in home equity," Greenspan told the House Financial Services Committee.
The Fed chief said while the overall value of the stock market's decline exceeded the rise in home equity, consumers are more likely to tap home wealth for spending.
In addition, he said the stock market slide was a bigger factor for wealthier consumers, while home wealth was a more significant factor for lower-income groups.
