The Good Wife Bosses on Will's New Foil and Peter's Next Move: He's in a Lot of Trouble
January 20th, 2014
by Kate Stanhope
Julianna Margulies, Chris Noth
The Good Wife's Alicia Florrick has been through quite a lot.
The close gubernatorial election. Her ugly exit from Lockhart/Gardner. But just when it seemed the worst was behind Alicia (Julianna Margulies), an incriminating video surfaced suggesting that Peter (Chris Noth) had rigged the election.
"We wanted to be true to the idea of the relationship and what started at the beginning of the series, which was this incredible betrayal," executive producer and co-creator Michelle King tells TVGuide.com. "Then, yes, they came together, but even when there's a whiff of something for her to lose her trust, she reacts a lot because of that initial betrayal."
2014 SAG Awards: Red carpet hits and misses
Even worse was Alicia's son Zach's involvement in the brewing scandal, since he was the one who first discovered the unsealed box of ballots and then testified in court about those ballots. "There's a problem there," executive producer and co-creator Robert King says. "[Alicia's] cynical enough or pragmatic enough to not mind that there's some dirty work to be done with the job. What she's really against is when the dirty work throws back on their kids. And that's one area that she will draw the line [on] no matter what."
After Alicia made it very clear that Peter needed to "fix" the situation in order to protect Zach (Graham Phillips), it will now be Eli's (Alan Cumming) job to try and keep Peter on the straight and narrow. "The problem Eli has is he knows Alicia is a benefit, but he also knows that Peter is most willing to break rules when it's about his family," Robert King says. "That's this delicate dance for Eli: How much can he guide him towards Alicia's ideas and how much away from Alicia's ideas?"
So what will Peter have to do to make this potential career-ruining mess go away? It might look a little bit like a real-life political scandal currently plaguing the governor of another state. "It's all about Chris Christie. It's so much about people in charge trying to deflect things on their underlings," Robert King says. "When investigators follow things, do they follow the smoking gun or where the money goes? Does it always go up higher and higher? Peter's in a lot of trouble, actually."
PHOTOS: The Good Wife's 10 biggest twists
While Alicia is dealing with these new challenges in her personal life, she will also be facing new challenges in her professional life — particularly a change in her relationship with Will. The producers say they will move slightly away from those heated Alicia vs. Will (Josh Charles) courtroom showdowns that have been happening frequently since Alicia went off on her own with Cary (Matt Czuchry). "The bottom line is how are they going to find something they can live with each other about," Robert King says. "You can't live in that level of passion forever." Adds Michelle King: "It isn't like we're never going to play that again. We're going to find different ways to go at the issue."
In the meantime, Will will have someone new to go up against in court: Matthew Goode joins the acclaimed drama later this season as a prosecutor. "He's a witty intellectual who is very much Will's peer. They compete against each other in the court with the Hunter Parrish case," Robert King says.
The Weeds alum guest-starred earlier this season as a college student named Jeffrey Grant who is arrested on a fake DUI and then accused of murdering a female classmate he claimed he had never met. Will represented Jeffrey, but after his DNA was found to be a 100 percent match for the killer, the case was set to go to trial and Jeffrey was left waiting behind bars. "He's like a likeable foil," Robert King says of Goode's character. "You like him, but he also applies an intellect and a wit to his prosecution."
The Good Wife airs Sundays at 9/8c on CBS.

Why Choose Sustainable Seafood?
People once thought that ocean fisheries could never be exhausted, but they were wrong. Increased demand and destructive fishing practices have damaged the health of the oceans.
Today, nearly 70% of the world's fisheries are either fully fished or over fished. Approximately 30 million tons of fish, sharks, marine mammals, sea turtles and seabirds die each year as by-catch (animals caught accidentally and discarded). We can all make a difference and change the future of the ocean!
Thank you to our sponsors!

After meeting Guerlain in Saks New Orleans and having a signed bottle Mahora became my sidnature scent
Written by Anonymous on December 11, 2010Read Review details ►
Mahora has been my go-to perfume for years now. I discovered it in a Guerlain gift pack and rarely wear any other scent. I find it both suitable for day and night wear, and receive compliments daily on how lovely I smell! It is strong at first, but gentle within moments. Truly my favorite perfume.
Written by agentkt on August 05, 2010Read Review details ►
Mahora is a beautiful, unique and very exotic fragrance; the kind that makes you feel beautiful when wearing it. It's not so heavy that it becomes stifling, but it will get compliments. A perfect mix of spice and flower. Very romantic and a favorite of mine and my husband's for many years.
Written by Marilyn on January 21, 2008Read Review details ►
Everyday I wore it I got asked what fragrance I had on. I received compliments from Men & Women.

PE Toolbar
The Position Editor Toolbar provides quick access to the most commonly used features from the menu bar. The buttons have the following action:
- Open - bring up a file selection dialog to load a previously saved image.
- Back - move backwards in image history list
- Forward - move forward in image history list
- Cut levels - bring up a dialog of showing the distribution of pixel values for the displayed image. The minimum and maximum display levels can be set either with the slider or the Auto Set buttons.
- Catalogs - opens the catalog navigator for defining and executing custom guide star and image server queries. It is also useful for seeing the detailed results.
- Images - queries the the default image server using the base coordinates of the observation selected in the Program Editor. If no default is set then a Image Server dialog (below) queries the user to select a server. The default can then be changed by selecting a new server from Catalog -> Image Servers in the menu bar (the current default is marked with a black dot) or by selecting an image server with the Catalog Navigator and pressing the Store Settings button (the icon of the default is shaded yellow).
- Manual GS - opens the Guide Star Selection dialog (below) for doing quick guide star searches. The coordinates for the search is the base position of the observation selected in the Program Editor. Likewise the Instrument is set using the instrument component of the selected observation in the Program Editor. The Guide Star Type and the Catalog is remembered from the last query. The combination of the instrument and guide star type determine the minimum and maximum radii and the limiting magnitude for the query. Custom queries can be constructed using the catalog navigator.
- Auto GS - initiates a UCAC3 guide star query and automatically selects the brightest allowed guide star in the patrol field. This applies to the Peripheral and On-Instrument wavefront sensors; selection of GSAOI/GeMS guide stars will be described elsewhere. The allowed WFS patrol field is the union of the patrol fields for all offset positions where the WFS is set to guide (not freeze or park). This field is shown by the green line in the PE. The magnitude limits for the guide star candidates are determined by the WFS and the observing conditions constraints. If no guide stars that match the conditions constraints are found, but guide stars are available for better conditions, then the following dialog appears:
Clicking the Manual Search button will open the Manual GS dialog. Note that making the conditions constraints better may require approval from the appropriate Head of Science Operations.
If a position angle of PA+/-180 degrees is acceptable for your observations, then is check the box labeled "Allow +/-180 degree change for guide star selection" in the GMOS component.
With this option permitted the guide star selection will automatically change the PA if a brighter guide star is available at PA +/- 180 degrees. If this options is not selected and a brighter guide star is found at PA +/- 180 degrees, then will ask if the PA should be changed and this star selected.
If you prefer that the OT not ask this question, select the box labeled "Don't ask about alternative options again." This will affect all sulbsequent automatic guide star queries in all programs in the OT. To re-enable this prompt choose Preferences from the Edit menu in the Science Program Editor and then check "Alternative guide star options."
If no guide star is available at the current PA or PA+/-180 and PA is not important for your observations, then you should check if a guide star is available at another PA. All guide stars that are usable with the current conditions constraints are marked with red circles on the Position Editor and can be quickly selected with the + GMOS OIWFS PE button.

What is the difference between hydraulic and mechanical disc brakes? Are hydraulics more reliable? Or more powerful? All I know (I'm an amateur and a new user) is that hydraulics seem to get more attention and seem to be on professional bikes. I'm just curious, and I probably won't upgrade anytime soon (I currently have cable discs), so I don't need an urgent answer. Thanks!
Hydraulics are used on higher end systems, cables are a certain sign of a cheap brake set, so your observations are correct regarding "professional" bikes.
Cables have the disadvantage of friction that hydraulics virtually eliminate. It is significantly easier to modulate hydraulic brakes, you get more force delivered to the pads, hence more stopping power for the same input, and faster/more reliable and predictable pad retraction when releasing the brakes. As the Hydraulic system is sealed, grit and grim cannot get in to jam up the moving bits, making them virtually maintenance free (replace worn pads is about all need doing) Hydraulic systems are also easier to set up and adjust (with the right tools - next to impossible without them). Cables have to the exact length, and need "tweaking" as they stretch from new.
That said - a good quality and well maintained cable system will out perform a poor quality, cheap hydraulic brake set, so you cannot state "Its hydraulic therefore it's better".
Disadvantages of hydraulics occur when you get a leak such as hole in a hose or blown seal. They are less "field serviceable" than cables, essentially the brake is rendered useless and unrepairable (in the field) by a minor fault - which fortunately happens very rarely, and usually caused by poor transport rather than while out riding.
Watch out in the future for Hydraulic shifters.... Available now if you have the big $$$$, lighter weight than XT and XX level components, almost certainly more reliable and easier to setup....
Here are a couple of downsides of both types, that I have witnessed.
Hydraulic. Leaking oil tends to get into the pads and rotor, rendering the first useless and the second in need of professional cleaning.
Mechanical. Cable failure is very perilous. Essentially one moment you have full stopping power, the next moment the brake is disengaged fully. Additionally, this tends to happen when you squeeze the brake lever hard. When does one squeeze the brake lever hard? Correct - when you need to stop NOW and HARD.
The first incident I only observed. The second has happened to me multiple times with possibly misconfigured Shimano BR-M416
In addition to @mattnz's response; most cable disk brake systems work by operating one pad only - and squeezing the rotor onto a stationary pad. This means that as the pad wears down, you typically have to wind in the moving pad (usually the outside one) to keep the right bite point.
Hydraulic systems usually have opposing pads that self adjust for central alignment and also as the pads wear out.
(When I manufactured disk brake parts, I used to use cable disk brakes a lot on test rigs because they are so adjustable. However, out on the trail, a good set of hydraulic brakes are much better performing all round)

Meg Farris / Eyewitness News
Email: email@example.com | Twitter: @megfarriswwl
NEWORLEANS- When it comes to body fat, location makes a big difference.
Belly fat and thigh fat are not equal when it comes to health.
And one type of fat can seriously hurt the entire body, including your mood. But there is a supplement that can help.
Your friends call it a beer belly, fitness expert Mackie Shilstone calls it VAT for visceral abdominal tissue, your doctor calls it dangerous.
'So if you can touch a person's abdomen and it feels firm, don't fool yourself. That's not muscle. That is the worst kind of fat,' said Dr. Henri Roca, Medical Director of Integrative Medicine at Greenwich Hospital.
It's called the omentum. It's underneath the muscle, close to the organs.
'Essentially that person has developed an entirely new organ. That fat has taken on a life of its own and is producing its own hormones and its own molecules of inflammation,' he explained.
That inflammation is in the cells and the entire body, causing ongoing damage.
'That inflammation will go and it will dysregulate insulin. It can actually go up into the brain and produce depression. It goes throughout the arteries and produces the openings in the arteries for cholesterol to be deposited, ultimately producing heart attacks and strokes. It can turn on cancer. It can turn on autoimmune processes,' said Dr. Roca, who is also on the faculty of LSU Health Sciences Center.
Doctors say VAT is sabotaging your health through diabetes and even sabotaging your ability to lose weight. More omentum fat means less of a chemical that reduces stress and inflammation, and that interrupts another hormone that controls hunger.
But there is help to your diet and exercise weight loss efforts with omega-3 fatty acids, or fish oil. It could help fight the inflammation, make your insulin work better and when taken by pregnant women, it could help prevent obesity in that child.
Unlike fat on the thighs, fat released from the belly area is more dangerous because it quickly goes to the liver to be processed and then to the arteries causing clogs.

Dr. Roca is a board-certified family physician by the American Academy of Family Practice and the American Board of Holistic and Integrative Medicine. He serves on the board of directors for the American Holistic Medical Association and as co-chair for the Consortium of Academic Health Centers for Integrative Medicine's Education Working Group. Dr. Roca is on the clinical faculty of Yale University School of Medicine and LSU School of Medicine, where he founded LSU's Integrative Medicine section.

The women were identified as 22-year-old Jessica Jackman and 29-year-old Valerie Rae Bradshaw, both of Sandy, Utah.
A 57-year-old woman was confirmed dead in the crash, though her name has not been released.
The three women were among 13 people, including seven adults and six children, on board the motorboat when it crashed against a houseboat. No passengers on board the houseboat were injured.
Rescue teams used SONAR equipment Sunday in their search for the missing women.
"This is what they do," Kane County Sheriff's Sgt. Alan Alldredge said of the dive teams. "They're really good at it, they'll keep looking and they don't generally give up. They'll keep looking until they find them."

Diabetes, known scientifically as diabetes mellitus, is a medical condition in which the body cannot efficiently break down sugar in the bloodstream.
The result is a chronically high level of blood sugar in the bloodstream. In addition, diabetes often causes increased hunger, increased thirst, fatigue, vision problems and frequent urination. The long-term effects of diabetes can include cardiovascular disease, chronic renal failure, retinal damage and, eventually, death.
Read more about 'diabetes'
Under normal circumstances, the body is able to regulate the level of sugar in the bloodstream.
In healthy individuals, a hormone called insulin is released from the pancreas into the bloodstream to help about two-thirds of the body's cells absorb a simple sugar called glucose. The body's cells use glucose for fuel, for energy storage and for other needs.
If glucose levels in the bloodstream jump too high (as they typically do after eating), the body will release additional insulin to help break down those sugars.
On the other hand, if glucose levels dip too low, the body will reduce the amount of insulin being released and in turn spur the release of stored glucose back into the bloodstream. The body does this by increasing the levels of other hormones, most notably glucagon, which has the reverse effect of insulin.
Diabetes covers an array of conditions in which blood sugar levels remain too high either because the body's cells have stopped responding to insulin or the body does not produce enough insulin.
Speaking broadly, there are three main types of diabetes.
Type 1 diabetes is the condition in which the body does not produce insulin and as a result can't use blood sugar for energy. A person with Type 1 diabetes needs to inject insulin into their body in order to regulate blood sugar levels.
Type 2 diabetes is the condition where the body stops responding to insulin. This is often the result of lifestyle choices, such as poor diet, lack of exercise, smoking and drinking alcohol. Age, ethnicity and genetics can also play a part in developing Type 2 diabetes.
Type 2 diabetes is the most common form. About 90 to 95 percent of all diabetics suffer from Type 2.
The third type, gestational diabetes, appears in pregnant women. About 2 to 5 percent of pregnant women will develop gestational diabetes but it often improves or disappears when the pregnancy ends. It can often be controlled through diet, exercise and, if necessary, insulin shots.

By Gianmarco Segato, Adult Programs Manager
Roberto Devereux is the final instalment in Gaetano Donizetti's "Tudor Trilogy" which also includes Anna Bolena and Maria Stuarda. Central to each of these operas is a soprano role which stretches the singer to the limits of her technical and dramatic capabilities. It's generally agreed that the role of Elisabetta in Roberto Devereux represents the summit of these prima donna (principal female) roles with regards to difficulty.
What makes it challenging is the equal emphasis Donizetti places on both virtuosic vocal and histrionic demands. It is common to dismiss bel canto (literally, "beautiful singing") opera of the early 19th century as being tied to conservative musical formulas. For example, the operas of Rossini, Bellini, Donizetti and those of the first half of Verdi's career, employed the two-part aria, whose first section (often a slower cavatina) was succeeded by a more rapid cabaletta to demonstrate a marked change in emotion. However, Roberto Devereux comes from late in Donizetti's career by which time his inspiration emerged more from the text, allowing him to break free of the constraints of any formulaic notion of melodic development.
For the character of Elisabetta especially, this approach yielded opportunities for brilliant singing which stems directly from emotions related to the text and also from the influence of the words themselves – the colour of the consonants and vowels of the Italian language. This requires a huge investment of dramatic as well as vocal energy from the singer – quite the opposite of the stereotypical view of the prettily-chirping bel canto "nightingale."
Musical Excerpt #1: Act I, Scene i: Aria: "L'amor suo mi fe beata" ("His love was a blessing to me")
Connection to the Story
Queen Elisabetta enters and greets Sara, Duchess of Nottingham, not realizing that Sara is her rival for the affections of Roberto, Earl of Essex. Elisabetta confesses to Sara that life without Roberto's love is not worth living, a revelation that makes Sara deeply uneasy.
Musical Significance
This is Elisabetta's aria di sortita (entrance aria) which from the start sets out her dual character as Queen and lover. It is written in the traditional cavatina (slower section)/cabaletta (quicker, more decorated section) form, which is one of the building blocks of bel canto opera. This excerpt begins with the cavatina in which the expressive vocal line floats above a very spare accompaniment. This too is characteristic of bel canto vocal writing: the voice is front and centre allowing the singer the freedom to shape the vocal line in a very personal way by speeding up and slowing down the overall tempo (called rubato); changing dynamics (soft to loud) and adding ornaments such as trills (rapid oscillations between two adjacent notes) and interpolated high notes.
Even though Elisabetta's opening cavatina begins as a beautiful, woodwind-accompanied declaration of love for Roberto, Donizetti reveals her nearly pathological fear of betrayal at 0:47 with sudden, threatening repetitions of the words "Ah! se fui, se fui tradita" ("Ah! if I have been betrayed") and then subsequently reinforces these emotions with sets of overblown trills (listen at 1:22) at "le delizie della vita" ("the pleasures of life").
As is typical with this aria form, the cavatina is delineated from the cabaletta with a short interjection by another character, usually a comprimario (supporting role). So, at 2:53 we hear Cecil announce that Roberto has been accused of treason which, given her strong feelings, inspires more outward vocal display in Elisabetta's emotional cabaletta. It begins at 4:07 – listen how the vocal line becomes more agitated than in the cavatina. This is achieved with the addition of coloratura (fast, scale-like passages) which appropriately descends into the soprano's lower register on the words "i tuoi nemici, ah! nella polve innanzi a te" ("your enemies will fall, in the dust before you") and, an overall, more insistent tempo.
Musical Excerpt #2: Act I, Scene i, Duet: "Un lampo, un lampo orribile..." ("A flash, a terrible flash of lightning…")
Connection to Story
Elisabetta speaks to Roberto of the past, when their love was like a dream. But then she begins to question him about his intentions. Roberto mistakenly assumes the Queen knows that he has fallen in love with Sara and then tries to cover his lapse. Elisabetta's anger is aroused and, dissembling, she offers to lead his bride to the altar if he would only reveal her name.
Musical Significance
This excerpt is universally acclaimed as one of the highpoints in the score. It is in fact a "double duet:" the more tender opening section centres around Elisabetta's reminiscences of happier days with Roberto, whereas the contrasting bravura cabaletta section expresses her desire for revenge once she suspects she might have a rival for his affections. The Queen's vocal line, heard at the start, rarely settles into anything approaching a smooth melody and is instead peppered with frenzied coloratura.
Interestingly, when Roberto joins in at 0:37, rather than repeating Elisabetta's incisive "un lampo, un lampo" ("a flash, a flash") from the beginning of the cabaletta, he sings a different melody, which passes through a number of keys before coming back to rest in the original major key. His somewhat smoother vocal line is nevertheless restless, see-sawing back and forth as he expresses the hope that he, and not his lover Sara, might be the sole victim of the Queen's deadly wrath.
Musical Excerpt #3: Act III, Scene ii, Aria: "Come un spirto angelico" ("Like an angelic spirit")
Connection to the Story
In his cell in the Tower of London, Roberto expresses the wish that he live only if he is able to defend the honour of Sara and die at the hands of her husband, Nottingham.
Musical Significance
Until Act III, Roberto has been mainly showcased in duets with other characters. This excerpt represents the first section of his big, double "prison aria;" a gentle cantabile which literally means "songlike" and is just another way of referring to the slower, more free-form part of a double aria.
This is a classic bel canto melody, not oversaturated with showy vocal gymnastics, but no less demanding in its insistence on perfect legato or, in other words, the creation of an absolutely smooth singing line in which one tone is intrinsically bound to the next. The endlessly flowing melody is uninterrupted by any vocal ornament, except appropriately, in the link between its two sections (at 0:47) and at the final cadence (final "resting" spot of the tune) at 1:45.
Musical Excerpt #4: Act III, Scene iii: Cabaletta: "Quel sangue versato al cielo s'innalza" ("That spilled blood rises to heaven")
Connection to Story
Roberto's death is announced and Elisabetta turns on the Nottinghams; she determines that their betrayal warrants no leniency and orders them led away.
Musical Significance
This excerpt is the cabaletta portion (the quicker section following the slower, opening larghetto) of Elisabetta's final scene, one of the most dramatic and demanding soprano assignments in the entire bel canto repertoire. Here, the Queen is pushed to the limits of sanity once she learns it is too late to save Roberto, her mental state clearly reflected in the vocal challenges thrown at the singer. Large intervals (wide leaps between one note and another) like those at 0:37 and 1:44 signify a human being reaching the breaking point, as does the sudden change of mood at 1:55 where the tempo quickens and the previously linear vocal line becomes embellished with quick coloratura runs. Unusually, at the repeat of the main theme (at 2:42), Donizetti sets a different text just as Elisabetta envisions the bloodstained block on which Roberto has died. Generally, in situations like this, the same words would be used for a repeated verse, but Donizetti's keen desire to heighten and specify the dramatic situation demanded a change in text.

Conscious Living Workshop
Tuesday, Apr 23, 2013 , 9:00 AM – 5:00 PM
Morning Presentation (9:30am – 12:30pm):
Physical Mediumship: Fantastic Phenomena in the Séance Room
So called Physical Mediumship is the most spectacular, and most contested form of mediumship. Endless controversies about its genuineness have surrounded modern spiritualism from its beginning circa 1850 through the 1950s. Even most parapsychologists assume that this classic and rare form of mediumship does not exist. Lucius has participated in more than 70 séances with six physical mediums and their circles, experiencing a great amount of nearly unbelievable phenomena. In this presentation he will describe levitations, flying objects, spirit lights, the materializations of hands and faces, as well as significant apports (the paranormal appearance of objects)— for example, the apport of a written message from LSD discoverer Albert Hofmann.
Afternoon Presentation (1:30pm – 5:00pm):
Albert Hofmann and his LSD – A Long Life and a Significant Discovery
Swiss chemist Albert Hofmann (1906-2008) discovered Lysergic Acid Diethylamide (LSD) at Sandoz in Basel on April 19, 1943, deeply changing his own life and those of millions of people around the world. In this personal and illustrated presentation, Werthmüller, close friend of Hofmann and co-author of his biography, highlights little known and fascinating episodes about the long and unique life of this famous researcher and mystic.
"It is my firm belief that future generations will see Albert Hofmann as one the most important figures of the twentieth century, a Promethean visionary who helped to chart a new trajectory for the evolution of the human species." ~ Stanislav Grof
Lucius Werthmüller, consciousness researcher and parapsychologist, was born 1958 in Basel, Switzerland. He has been president of the Basel Psi Association (the biggest organizer in the field of the paranormal and the spiritual in Switzerland) since 1991; is editor of the Psi-Info; and co-author of Albert Hofmann's biography. He was project manager for eight years of the "Basel Psi-Days" (a congress on "border areas" of science worldwide), and is a founding board member of the Gaia Media Foundation.
Onsite lodging is $75 per person per night for a shared room or $99 per night for a single room. Registrations are based on available space, so please register early.

Will Turkey invade Syria to combat the 'Kurdish threat'?
With Bashar al Assad looking less and less legitimate, Syrians are considering what could happen once the dictator is toppled. Many believe the prolonged fighting has exaggerated sectarian divisions in Syrian society and, with Assad gone, civil war will be unavoidable.
The president is a member of the Shia Alawite sect and despite a number of Alawis joining the revolution, most Syrians consider sect members to be regime supporters. Assad is blamed for oppressing Sunnis and minorities like Christians and Kurds in Syria for decades.
But the division between Sunni and Alawi is not the only one to have emerged. They have kept a low profile for the first year of fighting but now the Kurds of Syria are taking a bigger role in the conflict.
This week they took the areas around Ayn al Arab on the border with Turkey. Kurds have declared these regions 'autonomous' and are preparing to group together a separate Kurdish area with its own government.
The Kurdistan Workers' Party (PKK) is attempting to remove opposition groups from this region and in turn in getting support from Damascus: a marriage of convenience for now.
Other Kurdish groups do not agree with this model but Turkey is already fearful that such a base exists close to their border and could potentially launch an attack on their territory.
Syria-watchers are now saying they fear a Sunni backlash in the form of Sharia law enforcement or an official call for Muslim Jihad (holy war.)
The more immediate reaction, though, could be Turkish troops sent into Syria to combat what they see as the Kurdish problem: something Turkish PM Recep Tayyip Erdoğan has so far refused to do in support of the Syrian opposition.
What do you think about Kurds establishing autonomous regions of Syria? Will Turkey invade? Tell us what you think below.
Top Headlines
most important thing is anyone to remember Turkey has the largest and most advanced military after USA and have allies around the region no one can should disrespect Turkey or cause any problems for it
I don't understand! Why don't the Kurds of Turkey, Syria & Iraq unite and fight off their main oppressors, the Turks and establish their own independent country by incorporating the Kurdish lands of Turkey, Syria & Iraq?
Kurds have deprived of their rights for a long time.They deserve to run ther own affairs in their own ancestral land within a framework of some kind of federalism similar to Iraqi Kurdistan .It is not in the best interests of Turkey to intervene militarily.This model will satisfy Kurds and it will keep the territorain integrity of Syria intact.
If You want a Kurdish state, Also I want it on condition that millions of kurds be deported to there.
The kurds establishing an autonomous region is their legitimate right. The first article of the united nations states that every people has a right to self-determination. The kurds and other oppressed people have a right to self-determination in the middle east.
I do not think turkey will intervene against the kurds in syria, because it already has a problem with kurds in its own borders. I don't think the turks are naive enough to attack kurds in syria and internationalize their conflict with the kurds, especially if they are not attacked from syria.
In the long run syria will fragment in different camps, I hope and think (as a kurd) that the kurds of syria are capable to consolidate their new-won autonomy and unify with the kurds in Iraq.
As for Turkey, I only see the PKK becoming bigger and stronger in the coming years; So what Bashar al-Assad said one year ago: 'when a room in a house catches fire, the neighbouring rooms will catch fire too' is probably a very accurate prediction.
brusk, there are more than 60+ Turkic/Caucasian/Muslim groups whose land is currently being occupied by Russia. I assume your supporting their independence especially considering they have legitimate ties to the land they live on while the kurds are foreign invaders from india.
I think Turkiye will very much intervene if the kurds in Syria so much as think of having anything to do with the PKK or even think of forming an separate state.
Don't get your hopes up. The 70 % of Syria that is Sunni Arabs won't let kurds steal their land.
LOL, PKK get bigger and bigger? With one of their main backers in Assad gone?
Newsflash buddy the only reason there's strife in Syria is because you have a plurality of the Syrian people (70 % Sunni Arabs) being oppressed by a 12 % Alawite minority.
There's no such situation in Turkiye so come back down to reality.
"their land"? - the funny thing is that turkey will - according to UN, EU and Israeli along with turkish domestic estimates - be in 25-35 years from now comprise of 45-55% of kurds. The main issue is that kurds give birth to 5.5 children while the average turk couple give 1.9 children, under reproduction rate.
So - Kurds might get their ancient land back - they might not get their land back - who knows? BUT one thing is for sure - the majority of current day Turkey, will be in the hand of the kurds in 50 years from now.
This above stated text is relying too much on the historical turkish "can-do-attitude" based on kemalism - something that even the current leadership is distancing itself from, because they now that the kurds have time on their side.
If anything - my text - although not conclusive in any matter - is the only factual statement worth reading.
Yes all Kurd must get unite along with each other then in any moment they most establish a state in the Kurdish areas.
No, they should move back to india where they came from. The "kurdish" ethnic group and kurdish nationalism are the inventions of 19th century european imperialists. Read christopher dickey's "Don't Redraw Middle East Map". The "kurds" in Turkiye, iraq, syria, and iran are all genetically dissimiliar and liguistically incoherent. The reality is that they are iranic offshouts from india who have always lived on other people's land. Even then the kurds in northen iraq have haplogroup J in frequencies of higher than 40 % making them more Arab than some Arabs. The kurds in Turkiye didn't even inhabit Eastern Anatolia until the Ottoman sultan defeated the Persian shah and gave a large amount of land to a kurdish servant of his. Historically, the "kurds" defined their allegiance by tribe, faith, or the nation to which they were stealing the culture from. Even kurdish nationalists admit that one-hundred years ago "kurdish" was mostly Turkish, Persian, and Arabic.
first of all Kurds parties must maintain their unity along with PKK, then they can establish a state in the Kurdish areas, this will encourage Turkey Kurds to rise and ask their rights afterwards.
fugitive Syrian Kurd soldiers have been getting trainings in Iraqi Kurdistan camps, at last they can manage an organized army.
Turkey will not dare to invade this part of Syria, because of PKK attendance there, its like playing with a nest of wasp! on the other hand if such attacks occur for sure Kurdish Peshmarga will definitely interfere, thus i dont think so !!
Hawler, those "kurdish partlies" won't be able to do anything. 70 % of Syria is Sunni Arab and Turkiye would crush them if they even so much as think of collaborating with the PKK or forming an independent state. LOL, "engcourage Turkey kurds to right"? What do you think "Turkey kurds" have been trying to for the past 30 years and miserably failing at? The PKK gave its best shot in the late 80's and 90's and it still got beat.
The short of the matter is that Turkiye will especially invade if there is any proof that the PKK is there. LOL, yes, bring your "peshmerga". They got their behinds handed to them by Saddam's fledling army backed with Soviet army surplus. What are they going to do against Turkiye?

Reviews for Festive Broccoli-Cauliflower Salad
Sort By :
"Made this for a birthday celebration at work and got rave reviews. Making it again tomorrow for a last luncheon at work since our jobs are being moved to another state. I love this recipe"
"I loved loved this salad."
"I suggest adding bacon to this recipe and using shredded cheese instead of cubed cheese."
"This is a delicious salad. One that is easy to prepare and seems to go well with almost anything. I love salads that have a crunch to them and as such usually add nuts or croutons to any that I make, but this salad did not need anything added to it, for it is naturally crisp. I did add a tablespoon of sour cream to the dressing to make it a bit creamier."
"I followed the suggestions of others and cut everything much smaller except the julienned green pepper and sliced onion. It was really good. I brought it to a family party and it was devoured. I was actually wishing we had some left over cause I was craving it today to have with my lunch."

All Blacks duo Tamati Ellison and Ben Smith might miss the rest of their team's end-of-year tour because of injury.
Both players started in the midfield in New Zealand's 51-22 win over Scotland last weekend. Ellison suffered ligament damage in his foot, while Smith has picked up a fractured cheekbone.
They are ruled out of the Test against Italy in Rome this Saturday, which should see first-choice centre pair Conrad Smith and Ma'a Nonu reinstated.
It is still being assessed whether Ellison and Smith will be able to provide cover for the rest of the tour.

Story of the year: Mesoraco receives his dream call
PUNXSUTAWNEY — 2011 was a whirlwind year for former PAHS — and current Cincinnati Reds' — catcher Devin Mesoraco and his loyal, local fans and one during which his dream of playing in the Majors became a reality.
When Mesoraco hit an eighth-inning home run during the first week of spring training with the Cincinnati Reds March 2, manager Dusty Baker said that the slugger hit the ball a mile, maybe even a mile-and-a-half.

• After nearly seven years of planning, the Area Transportation Authority broke ground and started its 140-day construction schedule. A ceremony was held to kick off construction of ATA's Punxsutawney Transit Center.

PUNXSUTAWNEY — Did you miss Groundhog Brew this year? Well, in the waning days of 2011 and the early days of 2012, it's back.
This week, the Straub Brewing Company of St. Marys introduced its 2011 batch of Groundhog Brew, the brewery's amber lager, as opposed to the light beer.
PUNXSUTAWNEY — Phil Mennitti never thought he'd write a book, but all it took was a bit of inspiration.
Motivated by the Occupy Wall Street (OWS) movement, Mennitti, who works for the Punxsutawney Area School District, wrote "A Commoner's Guide to Defeating the Aristocracy," a book about Wall Street's influence on the government and how its influence has destroyed the highest standard of living in the world.
"I was kind of inspired (by the OWS Movement) because I saw that everybody else felt the way I did," he said. "And it didn't die off. It kept growing — day after day."

PUNXSUTAWNEY — Carl A. Truance, for whom the Punxsutawney Holiday Classic has been named since 1995, was an avid fan of Punxsutawney sports.
He would have been pleased with the performance the Chucks gave Thursday night to be crowned tournament champions.
Punxsy's Cory Geer, playing off the bench, hit a shot with 38 seconds on the clock to give the Chucks a 53-52 lead, and the Chucks held on to win by that same score.
PUNXSUTAWNEY — The Lady Chucks fell behind early for the second day in a row and were unable to overcome the deficit to lose 39-33 in the consolation game against the Lady Cougars of Hazleton at the 17th-annual Carl A. Truance Holiday Classic Thursday afternoon in Punxsutawney.
The Lady Cougars' intense full-court pressure defense was a key factor in shutting down the Lady Chucks in the first quarter, and Hazleton converted early to jump out to a 13-5 lead in the first quarter.

It was the first time a state budget had been passed on time in eight years, those eight during the administration of former Gov. Ed Rendell.

Narrow your search
Samsung's solid N150 Netbook feels very roadworthy, but other Netbooks have a longer battery life.
The Epson WorkForce 310 is a cost-efficient all-in-one printer that gives you five separate ink cartridges with an automatic document feeder and a detailed control panel. Combine those features with its lightning-fast print speeds, and the WorkForce 310 is a worthwhile addition to your office arsenal.
The Epson Artisan 800 produces impressive color prints, photos, and text documents, and it outpaces the competition in almost all of our speed tests. We're impressed by its performance, but hesitate to recommend this printer based on the poor build quality and error-prone software.
Don't pick up a new, 802.11n-enabled AirPort Express if you're looking for superfast wireless networking performance. You should consider it, however, if you're in the market for a new Wi-Fi router that offers portability, ease of use, and the unique ability to stream iTunes over your network.
We like the Asus WL-500W for its wealth of unique features and its strong signal at long range, but its short-range throughput is substandard and there's no Gigabit Ethernet support. This is a good choice only for advanced users who will take advantage of some of router's USB features and aren't afraid to wade into those waters without help.
It's cheap, easy to set up, and delivers more than acceptable performance at shorter ranges. We like the sleek, white Edimax BR-6504N router, particularly for networks with a mix of Draft N and older 802.11b/g clients.
Pricing not available
The Apple AirPort Extreme Base Station is a solid router that keeps up with the Draft N competition. Unfortunately, we've yet to test a Draft N router that lives up to the promise of 802.11n. As with the rest of the .11n routers we've tested, we advise you postpone your purchase until the spec is finalized.
This printer's attractive photos and myriad printing options can't offset its weak overall output quality and print speeds.

1. Adding content
2. Cleaning up through "wiki-gardening"
Adding content
Adding to Ballotpedia is exciting because it helps your neighbors learn about their elections. You could take one ballot measure and become its expert, sharing with others everything you learn. Because it's a living archive, Ballotpedia is a move away from sound bites toward reasoned discussion and debate. Our "What people are saying" page is a testimony to the value readers find here.
Where to start
Here are some ways you can get involved:
- Look at the list of current projects for a project that interests you.
- Work on the Collaboration of the Month.
- Choose a stub article and expand on it.
- Visit your state page and expand on one of the articles listed there.
- Find a portal that interests you and start working on those articles. Each portal has a to-do list with suggested areas for expansion and improvement.
What to add
What should you add once you find an interesting article?
- References to source material
- Historical details
- Links within Ballotpedia to other relevant articles
- Links to relevant external pages
Wiki-gardening refers to a variety of small article adjustments that make them easier to read or navigate, such as adding useful category tags. There's always a lot of wiki-gardening to be done.
Here are some areas that usually need help:
- Check the Ballotpedia:To do list for general maintenance tasks.
- Look at Categories for red-linked categories. Then add a link on that category page to a relevant article.
- Look at Categories for two categories that are basically the same, but are typographically different. Eliminate one of the categories by putting all of its articles into the other category.
- Look in Broken re-directs and fix any that are broken.
- Review a set of ballot measures and add additional topic category tags to the article after reviewing this list of ballot measure topics. Most ballot initiatives fall into more than one category. (Read up on how to add category tags to articles.)

**** yea.
My last week of rehab before heading back to New Orleans. Excited about getting back with the team. #Hornets #silentassassin
**** yea.
"Every fight is a food fight when you're a cannibal."- Demetri Martin
Nb4 "he didn't say anything about playing."

New Orleans Hornets General Manager
"I'm not going to allow my putative owner to answer that question, this is an NBA related press conference. Paul Tagliabue and Roger Goodell have collectively sung their praises of Tom and if uh ESPN has a problem with that tell Mr. Skipper to call me at my office."
Of course he's coming back to New Orleans in a week. Once he's traded he'll need to pick up whatever crap he brought with him from Los Angelas to take back with him.
Like Aminu...his shoes...
Good news. At least he will be on the bench looking good in suits. I don't expect him to play the first day he gets back, but his Offense and Defense would greatly help this team.
unlike other fans, I feel like he'll prove a lot of people wrong and we go on a serious run.
Lmaoo, idk
New Orleans Pelicans-Seattle Seahawks-Atlanta Braves-Anaheim Ducks
RIP HunnyB
This fits HunnyB/FlyGirl so well- https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IyzTiSEfM00
Well i know fans are angry and frustated at the whole gordon situation...but he will be forced to play his best basketball to improve his trade stock if he doesn't want to be here. So this is a win - win for the team. Either he balls out and is traded later or he helps the team by his stellar play.
I just wanna watch this team healthy, preferably for at least 10 games lol.
The boss is back !
"I go so hard, I go so mean... I'm so NEW ORLEANS" - Lil' Wayne"We not stopping at no stores man ! We staying on the gas !" - Tyreke Evans
But if you go by any mocks out right now, James McAdoo and Alex Poythress could be late lotto picks.
For a full, complete breakdown of Gordon's Twitter account, you guys have to read this:
By Chris Trew. Hilarious.
Heh. Something is wrong with Chris Trew's brain.
may be naive...
but i think there's a chance playing with AD might change his mind about new orleans.
we'll see. he clearly has to play well for his trade value regardless
There's also the word of him not liking being second banana to Blake Griffin in LA. I can imagine competitive fervor, but if he was really upset about it, don't sit well.
Oh well. We'll find out.

Series 6000 - Soft touch, smooth shave
The Philips Norelco Shaver 6100 (formerly called SensoTouch 2D) has a soft touch for a smooth shave. The Gyroflex 2D system adjusts easily to the curves of your face and shaves even the shortest stubble with its DualPrecision heads.
Product features
Designed to handle the contours of your face, SensoTouch uses GyroFlex 2D two-dimensional contouring technology that's able to pivot in a circular motion and tilt inwards. Its contour-following system adjusts easily to every curve, minimizing both pressure and irritation. The result is a close shave that's easy on your skin.
SensoTouch delivers a close, comfortable shave with complete coverage and accuracy. It features DualPrecision heads with slots to shave normal hairs and holes to shave even the shortest stubble.
The patented Super Lift and Cut dual blade system lifts hairs to cut comfortably below skin level, while the low-friction SkinGlide surface slides smoothly along skin without causing irritation. There's also a precision-trimmer feature for mustache and sideburn grooming.
SensoTouch lets you shave any way you want. The AquaTec seal gives you the option of either a comfortable dry shave or a refreshing wet shave with shaving cream or gel. No matter which you choose, SensoTouch's slim, non-slip grip makes for easy handling.
With SensoTouch, you'll enjoy the convenience of cordless operation. One hour of charging provides up to 40 minutes of shaving time, and a 3-minute quick-charge option gives you enough power for a single shave. The two-level battery display lets you know when the battery is full and shows a low-battery warning when it's time to recharge.
SensoTouch is designed with a hair collection chamber that helps keep your bathroom sink neat and tidy. Additionally, the razor itself is easy to clean. Just use water and the included brush. An excellent travel companion, the SensoTouch features a travel lock, protective cap, and storage pouch for safe portability. SensoTouch also has a worldwide voltage function that automatically adjusts from 100 volts to 240 volts AC, making it ideal for international trips.

text: Ron Cox, associate professor of religion at Pepperdine University, explores the theme "The King James Bible in North American Churches Today." Cox tells the story of how the King James Bible has ceased to be the bible of choice among North American English speakers. The lecture includes a discussion of the democratization of the Bible through more accessible translations, as well as the consequences of the dethroning of the King James Version in North American churches.
