Recently, my family and I attended a party celebrating a milestone for a scouting unit. It was held at a local catering hall. The boys in the troop and adult leadership wore uniforms; other guests dressed for an occasion. There was an open bar. I was surprised but admit that I had a drink since I wasn't driving. My adult children also had a drink; obviously, my minor children did not. The question came up at the party as many people were curious and most thought that no alcohol could be served at a function where scouts were in uniform. Is there such a rule and would it apply to a situation like this?

The key to the answer is whether or not this was a scouting event. If the troop organized it, someone probably goofed on this one. On the other hand, if it was a spontaneous gathering of several family members, some of whom happened to be wearing scout uniforms, it's open for discussion.
All of our district recognition dinners, Golden Eagle Dinner, and a number of other district/council events are served in an alcohol served setting. Scouters who wish to drink come without uniform so they think they aren't noticed. The only non-alcoholic event is the council recognition dinner because the Eagle scouts are recognized at that event. They wouldn't want their double standard to be so evident in front of the Eagle scouts.

/when you say district recognition dinners, do you mean adult only? I have no problem with alcohol at that type of function. This was a family event, though, with cub scout aged children in attendance as well. There was one adult leader in uniform, and many boys in uniform.
Scout policy notwithstanding, I think you will find that your council, CO, and other adults will not much care about this issue after the fact just as you and your adult children were unconcerned during the event. Then again if the CO dismissed adult scout leaders that would be fine with Schiff. Seemingly, the reality these days is that the most we can hope for is for all to drink responsibly, i.e., adults are not driving after consuming and adults are not spending scout funds on alcohol.
My unit stopped attending events where alcohol was served - ball games and even CO events due to safety concerns.

5scoutmom, There will probably be no repercussions since there were no bad consequences during or after that event. I am pasting in the words from the Guide to Safe Scouting: "It is the policy of the Boy Scouts of America that the use of alcoholic beverages and controlled substances is not permitted at encampments or activities on property owned and/or operated by the Boy Scouts of America, or at any activity involving participation of youth members."
That last part (any activity involving participation of youth members) is the part that your unit violated, IMHO. My advice is to read the Guide to Safe Scouting. READ it, don't merely let the words pass by your eyes. There is much more in that document besides the policy on alcohol.
What happened was not only clearly a BSA policy violation, it was also very bad judgment. No drinking in the presence of youth period; if it's a scout gathering, it's a scout gathering. It makes no difference if a leader is in, or out, of uniform, he or she is still a scout leader. This is about safety and being the correct role model for all scouts.

Rick_in_CA commented03-03-2014, 02:19 PMEditing a commentI agree with Old Eagle. It doesn't matter if you are in uniform or not, if it's a scout function and youth are participating then it's against BSA policy.
jblake: great phrase! I'm going to steal it!
Thank you all for your thoughts.
Packsaddle, I am familiar with the rules you mention and I have feasted my eyes on them. That is partly where my inquiry comes up. The unit involved is NOT my unit and I had no input into the planning of this event. My family left this unit a number of years ago because we didn't like how it was run but we attended this celebration to mark the time we had spent in it and to honor those who came before the current adult leadership. In my current unit, adults do not drink in front of scouts at any type of scouting related function and we emphasize that scouting and drinking do not mix. My husband's father died of alcoholism related illnesses and we are, therefore, incredibly diligent with our children and those we are responsible for in scouting about how we treat alcohol and drinking. I did have a drink at the function but only because there was an open bar; I would not have complained had there not been one. To that end, I was modeling responsible drinking for my own children but I told them that I was shocked that there was a bar at the event.
I will state that I did not see any adult uniformed leader drinking but I wasn't watching all the time and I wasn't sitting at the same table.
Someone at the party who was also upset about it told me that I should contact the DE but then I saw him at the party. I didn't see him drinking but he wasn't in uniform. Again, I wasn't paying that much attention to him.
After reading these responses, I think that I am not going to do anything other than make sure that my own scout functions, to which the other unit will be invited because we share a CO and some overlapping members, are properly run. We are planning a party for an upcoming unit anniversary and are going to hold it at our CO (a religious facility) which will doubly ensure that no alcohol is served.
I guess I was just surprised and wondered if there had been any changes in the rules that I was unaware of.
If it was an "open bar", to me that indicates that the organizers of the event paid for the drinks.
Was this an "official" Scout celebration? or a privately organized (SM retirement party done by his family?) sort of thing. If the former, I would feel the necessity of politely, diplomatically , reminding the organizing party of the above named policy. Uniformed Scout youth were in attendance, and , it seems, were expected. If it was the latter case, perhaps it was only poor taste and not a violation with "prior intent"; but still, if it LOOKS like a Scout event and people ACT like it's a Scout event and folks come to it EXPECTING it to be a Scout event, then it IS a Scout event and should have been treated as such.
SSScout -
The organizers didn't pay for the drinks. The attendees paid for the open bar and tickets cost a great deal of money. There was a discounted price for current unit members, everyone else paid much more. It cost me close to $400 to bring part of my family to this party. There was no choice given as to whether you wanted to pay extra for an open bar as is done at my company holiday party (I would have declined). It was a scout event honoring the unit, not any individual members. It was billed as a celebration of the unit, there was a glossy magazine with the history of the unit and advertisements. People were expecting a scout event.
I guess I just find it hypocritical.
Okay, Cash Bar and Open Bar are two different things in my dictionary, but never mind that. It was billed as a "Scout" event, Scout youth were in attendance and by good sense, BSA policy and public decorum, the event should have been non-alcoholic.
At our Quaker Meeting, we receive many requests to use our Meeting House and Community House for private parties (retirement parties, weddings, receptions, etc.) and when they hear our policy of no alcohol AT ALL, the askers often back off, no matter how picturesque or inepensive it might be. Too bad, so sad.
This is wrong on so many levels... If this happened in my unit, I would complain loudly. There may be no repercussions this time, but it would never be allowed to happen again. A clear violation of G2SS, and common sense would tell you that it sends the wrong message to the Scouts.
I agree it is poor form, however - it goes on probably more than you would think. I have attended district and council dinners (adult award / pat me on the back / see my nifty kilt I made to go with my adult scouter wanna-be 3rd world general uniform). Several had scouts (both Eagles and non) in attendance as color guard and buffet servers / busboy type taks. They have had a cash bar at some / others have been 'dry' (non-alcohol) events. Additionally, our council has at least one to two Scouts night at the Padres games.... they serve alcohol at the stadium. Some of the scouters have a beer, others do not. While I think it was ppor form, I don;t see a huge issue with it (even if it was a 'scout function') because presumably every scout there was under the direction / care of his own parent / guardian. Same as at the baseball game. I don;t condone it, but I don't see a big deal about it. The big deal comes in when you have a scouter that is responsible for scouts under his / her care and they choose to consume alcohol. I agree its best to leave the booze alone anytime there is youth around, but you going to a dinner with your family and having a drink is no different than doing so when you go out to a regular restaraunt, IMHO. Beer at summer camp, adults drinking on a unit campout an then driving kids home, I see as a much bigger deal. Its poor form, but in the gray area of G2SS. heck, maybe they should have it for the FOS presentations.... it would make them more bearable, and likely increase the donations Dean

Bad form under the guises of Scouting.... probably.
But I think a lot depends on contexts...... Kids are around it......We're Catholic and drink at almost all church functions! I think for us if it's a kid focus thing, booze is left out..... but I'm imagining an evening social thing as described.... my guess is that the kids didn't notice.
I've seen something new....actually twice now. Kid of a similar thing. I think actually looks worse. Once at our recent University of Scouting a leader form another unit, and again on a pack overnighter with one of our leaders. I think it's called "Vaping" or some such thing...... it's a little pipe/cigarette thing hanging on a neck lanyard, and they are puffing away on this thing like a cigarette. I just found it in bad form, and almost said something to the leaders both times.... but in both cases youth weren't present.
I know there's a rule about tobacco, but this aint tobacco!

The Monkees Announce Summer Tour
Wednesday, May 1, 2013
The Monkees have announced their full summer tour itinerary. The 24-date road trek has been dubbed, A Midsummer's Night With The Monkees, and kicks off on July 15th, at Port Chester, New York's Capitol Theatre and eventually winds down a little over a month later on August 18th at Portland, Oregon's Arlene Schnitzer Concert Hall. As with last winter's 12-date mini-tour, Mike Nesmith will once again join surviving members Micky Dolenz and Peter Tork for his second Monkees tour since 1997. Davy Jones died of a heart attack on February 29th, 2012 at age 66.
Micky Dolenz spoke about the band hitting the road for two years in a row, telling Rolling Stone: "The reaction to the last tour was euphoric. It was pretty apparent there was a demand for another one. . . I can be frank and tell you we are thinking about taking it everywhere. There's always been interest in Japan, Eurasia and Australia and New Zealand. There's a huge fan base in South America and Brazil in specific, which we've never really tapped into. There's also talk about Europe and the U.K."
Dolenz touched upon the fact that although Nesmith has stayed away from all but one of the Monkees reunion tours since 1986, his songs have always been heavily featured in the show: "We always kept his songs in the setlist. But when he sings the leads it brings a whole different feel and dynamic to the band. . . The two of us had such a nice blend on those early records. It was two-part harmonies like the Everly Brothers."
He revealed that unlike the 2012 concerts, which paid homage to Davy Jones throughout the show, this time out, the memorials will be somewhat scaled back, explaining, "This time we probably won't lean so heavily on the David situation. I think we have to move on. Everybody has to move on. He'll always be remembered and acknowledged, but possibly not as much as on that particular tour. We will, of course, still perform 'Daydream Believer' and all the other hits."
Dolenz wouldn't rule out the possibility of the Monkees regrouping for their first studio set since 1996's Justus, saying, "I'd love to make a new one. We haven't had any discussions about that beyond, 'Wouldn't it be cool to have a new one?' We're just taking this whole thing one step at a time."
Micky Dolenz explained that unlike nearly all of the Monkees peers from the '60s, because they auditioned for an already established and owned identity, the rights and licensing to the Monkees has nothing to do with Micky Dolenz, Peter Tork, Davy Jones, and Mike Nesmith: "The four of us, do not, did not, and have never owned the rights to the Monkees. We cannot use the name 'The Monkees' without permission from whoever happens to have bought the rights to the name and the logo -- which were never owned by us -- a lot of people never realized that."
Noted Beach Boys author, documentarian, and West Coast historian, Jon Stebbins told us that both culturally and musically, the Monkees are far more important than the rock community has ever recognized: "It's funny because if you think about it, they're one of the only iconic '60s bands that, y'know, you can have the four original members that we all know (what) their names were. I mean, how many other acts do we know the first names of all four guys? I mean, it's like nobody. . . Everybody wants to wash their hands of it now, but I don't know -- I don't understand that. I don't understand why, because their stuff holds up. Y'know the album tracks on their third and fourth albums are as good as any of the A-sides that anybody else was putting out around that time."

Anonymous wants to avenge Aaron Swartz's suicide
Hacker collective Anonymous is out to avenge the death of activist Aaron Swartz. Google Earth is used to spot North Korean labor camps. And some of the web's most famous felines come together for a good cause.
Anonymous wants to avenge Aaron Swartz's suicide
Anonymous is challenging the American justice system. The hacker collective has claimed responsibility for Saturday's cyber-attack targeting the Federal Sentencing Commission website. The government agency's homepage was momentarily replaced by this video; a message from Anonymous threatening to release the internal Justice Department documents retrieved during the operation.
The hackers say the attack is in protest of the US Justice Department's handling of the Aaron Swartz case: the 26 year old computer genius and activist who campaigned for the free flow of information on the Internet, committed suicide on January 11, a few weeks before he was set to go on trial. He was facing a lengthy prison term on computer fraud charges, prosecutors say he had downloaded millions of scientific articles from a subscription based research database, with the goal of disseminating them for free.
His friends and family believe it was the judicial harassment that drove the young cyber activist to suicide. His death has sent shock waves across the web and also fueled debate over computer crime and the US criminal justice system. California congresswoman Zoe Lofgren has proposed reforms to the law used to prosecute Aaron Swartz, so certain acts of piracy will no longer be liable to criminal prosecution. She is endeavoring to get the bill passed as soon as possible in honour of Aaron Swartz.
Google Earth used to spot North Korean labor camps
Blogger Curtis Melvin has been studying these newly provided Google Earth satellite images, and raised the question as to whether North Korea has recently built another prison camp. Over the past few years the American economist has been using the mapping software to try and expose the secrets of the Pyongyang regime.
Other bloggers are also using the satellite photos to gather information about the labour camps dotted around the country. Pyongyang insists the camps do not exist, but Human Rights organizations estimate that as many as 250 000 political prisoners and their families are languishing in these North Korean gulags.
Joshua Stanton has been compiling information about six of these camps on his blog, pinpointing guard posts, accommodation units and even coal mines. The lawyer backs up his findings with testimonials from the few people who have managed to escape. People like Shin Dong-hyuk who was born in one of these concentration camps and escaped in 2005. He has recently published a book describing the horrors of living there.
Google Earth's satellite images give a unique insight into one of the world's most secretive countries, and also provide information on other aspects of North Korean life. Curtis Melvin's blog for example lists the railway stations, schools and factories identified using the mapping software, so experts can get a better idea of the country's economic activity.
Woman vows to eat only at Starbucks for a year
A fan of unlikely challenges, one American woman called Beautiful Existence, that's her legal name, has vowed to eat only at Starbucks, morning, noon and night, for an entire year. She is chronicling her day to day menu on her blog "1 woman,1 year, 1 challenge" with a primary objective of finding out whether the coffee shop chain will be able to provide her with a balanced diet.
Famous felines of the Internet come together to help cats in need
The most popular cats on the Internet are coming together for a good cause. The website Amazecats has put together a pack of playing cards featuring the photos of famous felines including Henri, the Black Cat, Colonel Meow and Shishimaru. You can buy the deck of cards for 12 dollars and all proceeds will be donated to a charity for stray cats.
Video of the day
Wanting to give his kids a treat, one American dad decided to build an ice rink in his Chicago back yard: it involved five days of hard work and a great deal of courage and determination. He documented the huge undertaking, step by step, and you can check it out in this time lapse video which is currently dong the rounds on sharing sites.

Rashkin's Work
Sam Rashkin is the recipient of The 2012 Hanley Award for Vision and Leadership in Sustainable Housing.
Eli Meir Kaplan
With a small staff and shallow budget, Rashkin presided over the growth and technical development of Energy Star for Homes that to date has reached more than 1.3 million qualified homes.
While working for the California Energy Commission in the 1980s, Rashkin continued designing passive solar energy-efficient homes.

Rashkin completed a degree in architecture in 1974 from Syracuse University, where he "got the bug" for energy efficiency.

From his first day of work at Energy Star in 1994 (pictured with his father-in-law, Marvin Burstein) to his last day in 2011, Rashkin was a tireless advocate and educator.
Rashkin has written hundreds of technical papers and articles and last year published "Retooling the U. S. Housing Industry."

As the founding director of the EPA's Energy Star for Homes program, the industry's oldest and largest national residential rating system, Sam Rashkin—an unassuming fellow with a brilliant mind and passionate energy—almost single-handedly changed the way America builds houses.
Logging more than 100,000 air miles annually as the program grew, he crisscrossed the country for 17 years enthusiastically pitching the advantages of Energy Star-qualified homes to builders, product manufacturers, consumers, and anyone else who would listen. Meanwhile, inside the EPA, he steadily built a low-budget, high-impact program that few well-funded for-profit corporations could match.
Rashkin's unwavering mission has paid off handsomely for builders and their buyers, as well as the environment. Energy Star for Homes, which Rashkin led until a year ago, has qualified more than 1.3 million dwellings since its inception in 1995. The EPA, which administers the program, says those homes have saved nearly $350 million on utility bills while avoiding greenhouse gas emissions equivalent to those produced by more than 450,000 vehicles. These significant numbers were accomplished with very few resources. The driven Rashkin, his tiny six-person staff, and a meager $1.5 million annual budget returned energy savings and increased revenues to local governments that he estimates add up to $4 billion over 17 years.
His laudable accomplishments and tireless focus and dedication have led Rashkin to be named the winner of The 2012 Hanley Award for Vision and Leadership in Sustainable Housing—the industry's premier award for extraordinary, lasting, and far-reaching contributions to the advancement of sustainable housing in the United States.
"Sam Rashkin has changed the face of our industry," says Michael J. Hanley, founder of The Hanley Foundation and creator of the award. "Given the magnitude of his impact on housing, he has earned his place as one of our industry's pioneers, and we are proud to name him as this year's Hanley Award recipient."
The Hanley Award is sponsored by The Hanley Foundation, EcoHome and Builder magazines, and their parent company Hanley Wood, LLC. Rashkin, the program's third recipient, will receive the award and its $50,000 prize at a dinner during the American Institute of Architects national convention in Washington, D.C., in May.
Before Rashkin, a licensed architect, moved to the Department of Energy's (DOE) Building America program last June, the EPA began phasing in more rigorous Energy Star for Homes Version 3 guidelines. Once fully implemented this year, these new guidelines will result in houses at least 15% more efficient than those built to the 2009 International Energy Conservation Code (IECC), along with additional energy savings and improved performance from a comprehensive approach to building science.
Alex Wilson, founder of Environmental Building News, called Rashkin the ideal recipient of The Hanley Award. "I think Sam has done more to transform mainstream home building, making homes more energy efficient and more environmentally responsible than anyone else," says Wilson, the 2010 recipient of The Hanley Award and a judge in this year's program. "He was the champion from the start, and he's made tremendous progress."
Rashkin's supporters say that his unequivocal success not only can be pegged to his tireless marketing campaign but to his innate understanding of how to get things done in a behemoth federal bureaucracy and in the profit-driven home building industry. They add that few people have been so effective in both the public and private sectors.
"I don't think it is any exaggeration that the million homes built and the billions of dollars and carbon emissions avoided would not have been achieved without Sam's leadership and passion for improving the functioning of buildings," says C.R. Herro, vice president of environmental affairs for Meritage Homes, one of the nation's largest companies building to Energy Star standards.
His supporters also point to his deep-felt commitment to making homes more energy wise and comfortable to live in. "It's not a 9-to-5 job for Sam," says David Lee, Rashkin's boss both at the EPA and now at the DOE. "He just really loves it. He has passion for it."
In his usual modest fashion, Rashkin, who says he's an introvert who recharges by being alone, is quick to say he had a lot of help.
"We did it with a cadre of supporters and groups. It's an amazing story. It took so little money to see that kind of impact."

WILMA 2005 (credit: Marte REBOLLAR/AFP/Getty Images) Twenty-two deaths have been directly attributed to Wilma: 12 in Haiti, 1 in Jamaica, 4 in Mexico and 5 in Florida. The hurricane caused severe damage in northeastern Yucatan, including Cancun and Cozumel, and widespread damage estimated at $16.8 billion in southern Florida. RITA 2005 (credit: ROBYN BECK/AFP/Getty Images) Devastating storm surge flooding and wind damage occurred in southwestern Louisiana and extreme southeastern Texas with some surge damage occurring in the Florida Keys. Rita was responsible for seven deaths, and it caused damage estimated at $10 billion in the United States. KATRINA 2005 (credit: NOAA via Getty Images) Katrina is responsible for approximately 1200 reported deaths, including about 1000 in Louisiana and 200 in Mississippi. DENNIS 2005 (credit: Chris Graythen/Getty Images) Dennis caused 42 deaths - 22 in Haiti, 16 in Cuba, three in the United States and one in Jamaica. The damage associated with Dennis in the United States is estimated at $2.23 billion. JEANNE 2004 (credit: Joe Raedle/Getty Images) In the United States, damage is estimated to be near $6.9 billion. IVAN 2004 (credit: Spencer Platt/Getty Images) U.S. damage for Ivan, which crossed southern Florida, is estimated to be near $14.2 billion, the third largest total on record. FRANCES 2004 (credit: ROBERT SULLIVAN/AFP/Getty Images) Frances produced a storm surge of nearly six feet at its Florida east coast landfall and caused widespread heavy rains and associated freshwater flooding over much of the eastern United States, with a maximum reported rainfall of 18.07 inches at Linville Falls, North Carolina. Frances was also associated with an outbreak of over 100 tornadoes throughout the southeastern and mid-Atlantic states. CHARLEY 2004 (credit: Mario Tama/Getty Images) Although ferocious, Charley was a very small hurricane at its Florida landfall. The total U.S. damage is estimated to be near $15 billion, making Charley the second costliest hurricane in U.S. history. ISABEL 2003 (credit: PAUL J. RICHARDS/AFP/Getty Images) Isabel was the worst hurricane to affect the Chesapeake Bay region since 1933. The most intense hurricane of the 2003 season directly resulted in 17 deaths and more than $3 billion in damages. IRIS 2001 (credit: nhc.noaa.gov) The winds and storm surges of Iris caused severe damage over portions of the southern Belize coast. The storm was responsible for 31 deaths, including 20 in Belize, 8 in Guatemala and 3 in the Dominican Republic. The deaths in Belize occurred when the M/V Wave Dancer capsized in port, killing 20 of the 28 people on board. TROPICAL STORM ALLISON 2001 (credit: nhc.noaa.gov) The greatest legacy of the cyclone was the widespread heavy rains and resulting floods along the entire path of the cyclone. Houston, Texas, was the worst affected area, as the Port of Houston reported 36.99 inches and several other locations reported more than 30 inches. The storm also spawned 23 tornadoes. Allison was responsible for 41 deaths and at least $5 billion in damage in the United States, making it the deadliest and costliest U.S. tropical storm of record.

A savvy natural products store with the right arrangement can host farmers' markets at their store thereby encouraging farmers and shoppers to become regulars.
In July, the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services conducted a public meeting in which they received 49 comments pertaining to the 2010 Dietary Guidelines for Americans (DGA) Advisory Committee Report.
News about promotions, new hires, retirements and in memoriam.
In its September issue, Consumer Reports included a report claiming that dietary supplements are dangerous to people's health and posted a list of "12 supplements you should avoid."
Seattle, WA—Many studies have focused on the benefits of fish oil, which has high levels of omega-3 fatty acids, EPA and DHA. Now a new study, published in Cancer Epidemiology, Biomarkers and Prevention in July, found that it can also reduce the risk of breast cancer.
The old adage "you eat with your eyes before you eat with your stomach" holds true for several cases. Brightly colored foods entice people, but foods that are artificially dyed can be very detrimental to one's health according to the Center for Science in the Public Interest (CSPI) report entitled, Food Dyes, Rainbow of Risks. CSPI wants food dyes to be banned because they are a threat to public health.
Researchers at Worcester Polytechnic Institute (WPI) have measured cranberry juice's ability to ward off urinary tract infections (UTIs) in humans at the molecular level. During the study, Terri Camesano and his team closely examined E. coli bacteria, which are believed to cause UTIs.
The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) is seeking public comments as they draft guidelines to help implement a new federal law that requires the posting of calorie content and other nutritional information on menus at certain chain restaurants, similar retail food operations and vending machines.

T'ai Chi Beginning Practice DVD with David-Dorian Ross
Featuring T'ai Chi master David-Dorian Ross
One on one with Champion and Master David-Dorian Ross. This is the way to learn T'ai Chi. With this program created to be more like personal instruction, you'll learn more intuitively as you explore each move, so you feel more confident right away. You will understand how T'ai chi will help you move closer to that elusive life priority, balance. Known as "the ultimate workout" in China, T'ai chi is a more physically charged form of energy practice that resembles martial arts in slow motion and will give you the benefits of weight training, aerobics or sports conditioning while exercising your mental-spiritual strength at the same time. You'll see more balance in the way you move, think and feel every day. U.S. and world T'ai chi medalist David-Dorian Ross' clear, masterful instruction is captured live in this unique DVD.
The result is more candid, thoughtful expression that's in tune with you as you move, with pointers that both sharpen your form and deepen the benefits. David guides eight essential T'ai chi ch'uan poses, from Parting the Horse's Mane and to the empowering Crane Spreads Wings. A total-body workout that is more physically charged than its sister practice Qigong, this is like a martial arts dance, with breathing and mental imagery techniques that intensify the effects. 70 minutes.
"T'ai Chi completely surprised me. As an endurance athlete I am used to fighting for energy — and sometimes simply oxygen. T'ai Chi is a beautiful counterbalance to my overachieving personality. I love tapping into an unending source of energy!" - Sada McCormick, Portland, Oregon

Creamy brown rice risotto is great for a weeknight meal. (AP photo/Matthew Mead)
I'm always searching for ways to make a healthier version of risotto, one of my favorite winter Italian dishes.Risotto traditionally is made with starchy white rice. That starch is essential to producing a creamy, thick risotto. But I wanted a whole-grain version. Trouble is, brown rice doesn't release nearly as much starch during cooking, so substituting it often produces risotto that is thin and uninspiring.It took me a few attempts, but I eventually figured out how to have my whole grains and my thick and creamy risotto. And it was simple. I just needed to add starch.Once I had that down, then I needed to add flavor. For this recipe, I came up with two variations, one with Brussels sprouts and apple, another with asparagus and tomatoes. Both are incredibly delicious.------CREAMY BROWN RICE RISOTTO TWO WAYS -- WITH BRUSSELS SPROUTS AND APPLE OR ASPARAGUS AND TOMATOESStart to finish: 40 minutes (20 minutes active)Servings: 4 1 cup short grain brown rice (or brown sushi rice)2 cups water1/2 tablespoon olive oil3 ounces prosciutto, chopped1 tablespoon minced fresh rosemary1 medium yellow onion, finely diced1 pound Brussels sprouts, quartered AND 1 firm tart apple, peeled and dicedOR1 pound asparagus, trimmed and cut into 2-inch pieces AND 1/2 cup oil-packed sliced sun-dried tomatoes (drained)1/2 cup white wine1 1/2 cups low-sodium chicken broth, room temperature1/2 tablespoon cornstarch mixed with 1 tablespoon water1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheeseSalt and ground black pepper, to tastePurchased balsamic glaze, to serveIn a medium saucepan over medium-high heat, combine the rice and water. Bring to a boil, then cover, reduce heat to simmer and cook for 20 minutes.Remove the pan from the heat, leaving it covered. The rice will not be completely cooked and there will be some water in the pan. Set aside.In a large skillet over medium-high, heat the oil. Add the prosciutto and cook until crisp. Use a spoon to transfer the prosciutto to a plate and set aside. Do not wipe out the skillet. Return the pan to the stovetop over medium-high heat and add the rosemary and onion. Saute until starting to brown, about 4 to 5 minutes.Add the Brussels sprouts and apple OR the asparagus and sun-dried tomatoes. Cook for about 5 minutes, then add the wine and stir vigorously for 1 to 2 minutes to deglaze the pan. Add the rice and any liquid in the pan. Add the chicken broth and stir well. Bring to a simmer and cook, stirring frequently to prevent sticking, until the liquid has thickened and reduced, about 10 minutes. Stir in the cornstarch mixture, then cook for another minute.Stir in the cheese until melted. Season with salt and pepper. Top with crisped prosciutto, then drizzle with balsamic glaze just before serving.Nutrition information per serving for the Brussels sprouts and apple variation: 420 calories; 90 calories from fat (21 percent of total calories); 10 g fat (3.5 g saturated; 0 g trans fats); 25 mg cholesterol; 62 g carbohydrate; 8 g fiber; 12 g sugar; 21 g protein; 880 mg sodium.Nutrition information per serving of the asparagus and tomato variation: 400 calories; 100 calories from fat (25 percent of total calories); 11 g fat (3.5 g saturated; 0 g trans fats); 25 mg cholesterol; 52 g carbohydrate; 5 g fiber; 6 g sugar; 20 g protein; 890 mg sodium.------EDITOR'S NOTE: Food Editor J.M.

We had extended family staying for a week to attend a wedding. It was everything we needed and more. The rooms are all quite spacious and the family room is nicely separated from the living room which is great for a large group . A quiet relaxing neighborhood..pool was wonderful..yet close to everything.. Ron and Kelly could not have been nicer and more helpful. Everyone would have been happy to stay another week. Highly recommended.

Square Pegs tells the story of a person with the mind of a three-year old, named Dượng (Roger Kwok.) He is the son of the Đinh family who sell cakes and bread for a living. Viewers were made to believe that he was born that way. Jessica comes from a decent family. Her mother died early so her father remarried and has a daughter named Lăng Thái Điệp (Leila Tong, who is Jessicas little step-sister). Roger really likes Jessica, but she only sees him as her little brother. Leila likes this rich guy named Bao Kế Tôn but he only likes her older sister. Its a bit complicated. It is then revealed that the stepmother had lost a gamble with Mễ Châu Liên (Rogers mother) who then asked the stepmother to give Leilas hand in marriage to Roger. The stepmother knew that Roger was a stupid guy and didn't want her own daughter to marry him. So she devised a plan to make Jessica marry Roger instead of Leila. The stepmother told Jessica that her father had been kidnapped and she must marry into the rich Bao family to get money to save her father. Jessica agrees to the marriage even though she doesnt like Bao Kế Tôn. Then on the wedding day, the brides were switched. Leila went to marry Bao, and Jessica unknowingly went to marry Roger..

Getting A Card
|A person must be at least 5 to get a card. A person over 18 will be issued a purple adult card. A person under 18 will be issued a yellow juvenile card. If under 18, a parent or legal guardian must come to the library in person to sign for a juvenile's card with proof of identification and address.
|A current library card in good standing allows users to borrow materials including books, audiobooks (tape and CD), films (VHS and DVD), magazines, kits, SOL bags, and more! It also allows users to access
|TCPL cards work for the public libraries in Bluefield Virginia, Richlands, and Tazewell.
|Library cards are valid for 1 year. When a library card expires, public computer use will be denied. To renew a library card (it's free!), a borrower must come to the local library and verify a current address and telephone number.
|It's free!
|To apply for a card, a patron fills out a form in person at the library and provides proof of identification and address. The library accepts a driver's license, passport, VA identification, DMV statement, utility bill, tax statement, printed checks from a local bank, or lease agreement.
|If a new borrower does not share an address with someone currently in the library system, the library will send a postcard to the address given to verify it. Library staff will hold the borrower's card until the borrower physically returns the postcard to a library staff and receives a library card. Until the postcard is returned, borrowers may check out up to 2 library items and use the public computers.
|By signing the application form, a library patron agrees to comply with the rules of the library, including the public computer use policy, and to pay whatever fines may incur for damage or loss of library materials. Replacing a lost library card is $1. A parent or legal guardian must be present for a minor to replace a card.
Using Library Material
|Returning Material
|To avoid fines, return library material on time in good condition. Borrowers may return material at any of the three library buildings (with the exception of interlibrary loans). All buildings have book drops for after-library hours. Any library material may be returned in a book drop with the exception of an Interlibrary Loan.
|Requesting A Renewal
|Borrowers may renew library materials in person, by telephone, or online. Materials will not renew if someone else has requested the material, and fines will acrue for overdue material.
|Library patrons may reserve material that is already checked out or at another library location. Contact library staff to place material on reserve. Reserves are filled in the order received. Borrowers will be notified by telephone when the material is available. Reserve material is held for 7 days.
|Borrow Responsibilities
|Borrowers must treat material with appropriate care and return borrowed library material in good condition. Borrowers must not remove book jackets, write on materials, spill liquid on materials, or leave materials in cold or hot vehicles or environments, or otherwise damage library material. Items that are returned damaged or lost will be assessed a fine.
|Overdue Notices

I doubt it'll work, but I'll see if it can be run on VirtualBox.
Phoronix: Intel, Nokia's MeeGo Linux Hits Version 1.0
Back in February, the Moblin and Maemo projects from Intel and Nokia, respectively, made love and out came MeeGo. The two industry players had joined forces to come up with what they feel is the best Linux platform for mobile devices ranging from netbooks to in-vehicle information systems. Version 1.0 of the MeeGo Core Software Platform has been released today...
I doubt it'll work, but I'll see if it can be run on VirtualBox.
oh, it'll need SSSE3, so it's pretty much Intel only. No sense in testing on an AMD CPU then
Wow, that was fast. Can't wait for the Phoronix review.
How scaleable are these anyway? We got a decent set of platforms now, but they are all tailored towards super high end phones. This typically means, huge form factor, really bad battery time, and super slow startup time, and an annoying touchscreen.
I'm still looking to pick up simplistic phones, but i wouldn't mind beeing able to wrap up a custom program, and some freedom on how it displays and works.
There doesn't seem to be anything like that, such phones i like use custom operating systems.
I'm more interested in passive applications, typically changing the behaviour of the phone itself.
I find that most phones are shit when it comes to displaying information quickly. I want to know what week it is, what date it is, how much money i have left right there on the front screen.
More like customizing the OS rather than writing stand alone applications.

http://www.phoronix.com/scan.php?pag...item&px=OTU0Ng) and further discussed in the forums, it's a temporary codename until the respective company makes their public announcement... If I say what it is much in advance, the company probably won't be too thrilled. At that point, there's a 4-page Phoronix article in the queue that explains what is 'dirndl.'
Michael Larabel
Sadly phoronix has become (or always was?) a tabloid. Who can take this site seriously with stunts like this? Boasting scoops and annoying people when the article hardly lives up to the headline. Always shamelessly advertising itself via links in articles back to phoronix articles (have you ever read an article here that contained fewer than 5 links back to other phoronix articles? I think not..). Always going on about the "test suite", etc etc.
It's a shame this site is the only (sort of, there are others like osnews, ars technica, slashdot, etc. But there isn't really another place where almost everything is gathered in one place) site that gathers most linux news in one place. Until such a site appears (hint, hint) I shall be forced to visit this place every once in a week to see if i missed something off the other sites (if I can be bothered to scroll through the endless "does xxx boot faster than yyy" articles and similar garbage)... On the other hand if this tabloid/crap "benchmarking" can stop here then I would be happy to return. But I won't hold my breath.
I'm hoping it's a CPU optimization; otherwise announcing results for Intel SB and AMD Opterons would be a deliberate attempt to fool us all.
Maybe some geniuses developed a breakthrough C compiler which can automatically parallelize non-optimal code over 4 or 8 cores (like loop unrolling, but over multiple cores). Kudos if it uses SSE2 and/or finally forgets about 32-bit compatibility.
I'd be happy to see that in the GCC, but it's more realistic to expect such an improvement on a competitor.
As mentioned there are things I would prefer to be different in regards to the way certain articles are presented, but I can't understand how some people can be so negative when those 'gripes' pale compared to all the great stuff Phoronix offers, and again for FREE. Compared to 99% of the so called 'technology sites' covering Linux out there Phoronix is PURE WIN in my opinion, despite it's warts.
And hopefully its gcc compatibility is better than icc's, so all our favorite software that compiles with gcc will compile with EKOPath.
Of course, all of this is speculation, but the story seems likely:
*PathScale and Phoronix have a working relationship; PathScale representatives post here and Michael writes articles about pscnv
*Amazing performance coming out of PathScale wouldn't exactly surprise me, it's to be expected (their whole company mission is to make compilers that produce high performance)
*PathScale already writes open source software (they like the BSD license) in the way of pscnv and that C++ library for BSD
*Someone found out that EKOPath used to cost $1795 USD for a single license back when it was a commercial product, and Michael separately said on his twitter feed that the big news is related to a piece of software that costed $1795
*I haven't seen any posts on the forums recently from the PathScale guys; they are probably on a hush order or they are too busy getting their software ready for the big unveil
The evidence points to it pretty strongly, but who knows, maybe the "news" is just that Michael learned about the -O3 and -flto options in gcc. (although that wouldn't agree with the very significant performance increases in the teaser benchmarks, since these two options tend not to affect the performance of your typical program in such a dramatic way!)
If "real-world" performance gains for CPU-intensive tasks like encoders and decoders, physics engines and software renderers comes anywhere near the benchmark performance gains with EKOPath, this will be a huge benefit to the open source ecosystem -- provided their gcc support is compatible enough to compile things like libjpeg, libvorbis, libtheora, bullet, mesa, etc.
I'm not too fond of the news he generates by himself, though, with PTS and OpenBenchmarking.org -- I still think they are too difficult to use for the average user, and thus not something that everyone needs to know about. But Phoronix always manages to be the first to unveil pretty important news coming from the Linux hardware/gaming/enthusiast communities at large.
At heart, Michael seems to really care about finding the kinds of stories that I personally find interesting (PTS exempted). The Unigine stuff was fun. News about the open source graphics drivers is always fascinating. I've bought all the HIBs directly as a result of them being advertised on Phoronix. I've even submitted a couple stories myself.
If Phoronix is a tabloid, then I'm one of those people who buys trash magazines at the grocery store and sits down 10 minutes early to catch Inside Edition and Access Hollywood on TV every night.

It is our primary wish that you equip yourself with the correct information so that you will park properly and avoid these enforcement measures. Please don't find out the hard way! Review this web page or call 862-1010 for information. Already towed? Pay online now and follow release instructions posted here.

Very often when I see Indian dishes they are accompanied by freshly made naan. Naan is a yeast based Indian flat bread that is traditionally baked in a tandoor oven at very high temperatures. I thought that it would be nice to have some freshly made naan as a side for my palak paneer dinner. I have to admit that I had tried to make naan before and it did not work out too well. I baked it in the oven but it baked hard before it got all nice and golden brown so this time I decided to try something different. I figured that I would have more control if I pan fried the naan and since they were brushed with ghee or butter anyways they were all ready for pan frying anyways. The pan fried naan worked out really well! I was able to get the naan nice an golden brown on both sides! The tops and bottoms were also slightly crispy and the insides were nice and light and fluffy and moist and best of all still warm! I cannot believe how good, and addictive, freshly made naan is! I had a hard time resisting just eating my fill of naan despite the fact that the palak paneer was really good as well. I can't wait to make another batch of naan!
Naan(8+ naan)
Printable Recipe
1 1/2 teaspoons dry yeast

1 cup water (warm)

4. Place the dough in a large greased bowl and cover.

6. Punch the dough down and knead it for 10 minutes.

Pumpkin Chip Cookies Recipe

These golden cake-like cookies are my favorite, especially around the holidays. They disappear quickly from my dessert trays. The subtle pumpkin and cinnamon flavors pair nicely with chocolate chips. -Tami Burroughs, Salem, Oregon

- 2 cups quick-cooking oats
- 2 teaspoons baking soda
- 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 2 cups (12 ounces) semisweet chocolate chips
- In a large bowl, cream butter and sugars. Beat in the pumpkin, egg and vanilla. Combine the flour, oats, baking soda, cinnamon and salt; gradually add to creamed mixture. Stir in chocolate chips.
