While this sort of sailing is pleasant, it is certainly not challenging, nor does it teach or demand much of the sailor aboard. No, sailing, and "seamanship" does not so much involve the thousand mile passage in ideal conditions, although it is involved in producing it - "seamanship" involves much more that hundred feet of contrary current off the point that one cannot make way against. It involves getting under sail in good manner and entering a harbor with proficiency after a passage. People like to think of themselves as 80% sailor and 20% motor-sailor - although such a ratio is dangerously close to a "yachtman's gale." They like to think in terms of hours underway, or miles underway, for this ratio. This disguises or belittles the fact that without the engine, had they encountered that hundred feet of contrary current and not been able to deal with it - even after a thousand miles, they would still have
to make port. Properly, then, their ratio should be expressed as 100% power-assisted sail, as they would have been helpless without the engine. It is important to note that in any activity that is judged by its completion, a 1% failure means 100% failure... Let us be 100% sailors..."

US missiles kill Haqqani 'coordinator' in Pakistan
Most independent analysts say Pakistan is either tolerating or supporting the Haqqani network to some degree because it foresees chaos in Afghanistan once America withdraws, and wants to cultivate the group as an ally there against the influence of India, its regional enemy.
Since 2008, the United States has regularly unleashed unmanned drone-fired missiles against militants in the border region, which is home to Pakistani militants, Afghan factions like the Haqqanis and al-Qaida operatives from around the world, especially the Middle East.
This year, there have been around 50 drone strikes, most of them in North Waziristan. Pakistani officials protest the strikes, which are unpopular among many Pakistanis, but the country is believed to support them privately and makes no diplomatic or military efforts to stop them.
U.S. leverage against Pakistan to get it to fight the Haqqani group is limited because it relies on the country to truck much of its war supplies into Afghanistan. The supplies of non-lethal material arrive in Pakistan's port of Karachi by sea before traveling into Afghanistan by land.
The convoys are occasionally attacked by insurgents, especially close to the border, where the militants are strongest.
On Thursday, gunmen opened fire and set ablaze five tankers carrying oil for NATO and U.S. troops in Sindh province, some 1,200 miles (2,000 kilometers) from the border, said police officer Khair Mohammad Samejho. The tankers were parked outside a restaurant in Shikarpur district when they were attacked, he said.
Associated Press writers Ishtiaq Mehsud in Dera Ismail Khan and Adam Goldman in Washington contributed to this report.

Wondering if you have a 5 ingredient recipe for creamy potato soup? Here in our American home my kids love the "loaded baked potato" version, especially as comfort food on chilly/cold days, so I purchase store bought. It's a chilly summer day here in Indiana, right now, and we polishd off another can, and this got me to thinking. I always refer to your site first as a reference point, but don't see your take on this? Perhaps it's something you've already experimented with, or in the process of? Please share. Thanks, Jules.

Hi, Jules,
With winter just around the corner, I hope that you are planning to add many, many more simple soup recipes to your recipe collection page. I could eat soup 3 times a day and not be unhappy. Please say that soups are at the top of your "to-do" list!
- November 12, 2011 at 6:14 pm
Ditto Linda – love the site, came here in search of a chicken soup recipe (even with more than 5 ingredients!), it's a shame there aren't more soup recipes here even though it's in the name of your blog :P Thanks, Sarah

Your carrot soup is so good….I was licking the bowl like it was ice cream!!

I agree with Jennifer, carrot soup is wonderful!

Hi, thought I'd just offer a tip when making the soups. Instead of bringing veg to the boil in water, try using a good quality stock. Adds depth to the flavour of the soup. :-)
- July 11, 2013 at 12:37 pm
Hi Jules! Have been searching FOREVER for your red curry potato cashew soup through books, and your website and I can not find it anywhere. It's one of my absolute favorite recipes. Do you have a link, or any guidance to where I can find it? It's on my menu plan for the week, and I'm wasting so much time looking for it when I could be making it. :)

Hi, how much liquid you are adding to White Bean and Eggplant soup?
- March 7, 2015 at 1:00 am
Hello Jules! I noticed that you use a lot of canned food in your recipes. Are you aware that they pack huge amount of sodium and preservatives even if you use "low sodium" or "no salt added" versions. This can affect your blood pressure significantly. I understand that they make it easy to prepare 10-minute meals, but this does not make them healthy meals.

Jeff Samardzija struck out 9 and allowed just 3 hits over 8 innings of 2-run ball (and threw 118 pitches) in Chicago's win. The game was tied until J.B. Shuck's 8th-inning sac fly. Box score
Chris Iannetta hit a 3-run blast in the 5th, part of a 9-run Angels inning, to help L.A. move within 4.5 of division-leading Houston. David Freese collected 2 RBIs to give him a team-leading 27 on the season. Box score
Prince Fielder homered twice and the Rangers held off a late Yankees rally attempt in a 10-9 win. Alex Rodriguez tied Babe Ruth for 4th on the all-time RBIs list (1,992) in the loss.
Ryan Braun went 3-for-3 with a 2-run HR and 2-run double, and 4 pitchers combined for a 3-hit shutout as the Brewers cruised past the Braves 11-0 in Atlanta.

Jimmy Paredes went 3-for-5 to raise his average to .353, Manny Machado had a key 2-run double in the 8th, and the Orioles beat the Marlins 8-5. The loss was the 7th straight for Miami (16-26). Box score
Ryan Braun belted a 2-run homer in the 1st and drove in 2 more runs in a game where six Brewers collected RBIs as struggling Milwaukee ended their 2-game slide. Box score
The Rangers and Prince Fielder (2 HRs, 4 RBIs) led by as many as 7 runs early, but after late HRs from Garrett Jones and Mark Teixeira had to sweat out a 10-9 victory over the Yankees tonight in the Bronx. Box score
David Freese's sac fly in the 8th brought home Albert Pujols, his 27th RBI on the year. Freese is on pace for his first career 100-RBI season. Angels lead the Red Sox 12-5 in the 9th. Follow live
Brandon Belt's home run off Rockies starter Kyle Kendrick tonight was calculated at 437 feet, the longest of the Giants first baseman's career. San Francisco leads 3-0 in the 7th. Follow live

Chris Archer went 5.1 innings, giving up 6 hits and 1 run while striking out 8. But it was Evan Longoria's 3-run blast in the 5th that gave Archer the run support needed to claim his 5th win of the season. Box score
Shuck with the sac fly and the White Sox lead 3-2 in the 8th. Samardzija now in line for the victory. #WhiteSox
The Tigers' J.D. Martinez's second home run of the month came at an opportune time. A third-inning 3-run shot was the difference in Detroit's 6-2 win over Houston.
Felix Hernandez struck out 8 and improved to 7-1, Nelson Cruz hit his MLB-high 17th HR, and the Mariners beat the Blue Jays 4-3 in Toronto.
Brandon Moss went 2-for-4 with a solo HR and 2-run double as Cleveland defeated Cincinnati 7-3. While the Indians have won 4 straight, the Reds have lost 6 in a row. Box score
Belt's HR was the 33rd that reached the upper deck at Coors. Nate Schierholtz was last Giant to reach the 3rd deck here in 2011 #SFGiants
The Giants' Brandon Belt homered tonight vs. the Rockies, his 4th in the past 6 games. This hot streak has come after he had 0 homers in his first 30 games of the season. Follow live

Agencies more aggressive in suspending, debarring contractors
Friday - 10/21/2011, 3:52pm EDT
Agencies are more aggressively suspending or debarring federal contractors who break the rules.
In 2010, the Interagency Suspension and Debarment Committee (ISDC) found departments suspended 612 vendors, up nearly 200 from the year before. The committee also found agencies debarred 1,651 contractors, up 150 from 2009, and proposed 1,945 companies for debarment, an increase of almost 1,200 over the year before.
"Suspension and debarment are the government's most powerful tools to protect taxpayers from entities who engage in dishonest or illegal conduct or are otherwise unable to satisfactorily perform their responsibilities," the committee wrote in a report sent to lawmakers in June but only posted the Office of Management and Budget website earlier this month.
"While the basic federal policies and procedures governing suspension and debarment in procurement and nonprocurement activities remain sound, reports issued in recent years by agency Inspectors General, and others, serve as important reminders of the heightened attention that agencies must continually give to how these processes are managed. Such attention is essential for ensuring that agencies are able to apply these tools whenever necessary to protect taxpayers from bad actors," the committee wrote.
The Army, the Defense Logistics Agency, the Department of Homeland Security, the Environmental Protection Agency and the Office of Personnel Management (OPM) were among the top agencies in terms of number of debarments.
DLA, Army, Air Force and the Department of Housing and Urban Development suspended the most contractors in 2010.
The report comes as lawmakers are focusing more on making sure agencies don't contract with vendors who break the law. There have been several bills to suspend or debar contractors who owe back taxes. President Barack Obama issued a memo in January 2010 requiring the IRS to review tax records of companies doing business with the government.
Additionally, the Government Accountability Office recently testified at a House hearing that agencies are not doing enough to police vendors.
But the ISDC report shows a significant increase in not just suspension and debarments, but the use of show cause letters and administrative agreements to alert the vendor that there is a problem that needs to be fixed immediately.
"More agencies are establishing formal suspension and debarment programs, dedicating greater staff resources to handle referrals and manage cases, strengthening policies, providing training, and acting decisively to root out illegal behavior and irresponsible actors," the report stated.
The committee also highlighted steps it has taken to improve the contractor oversight governmentwide. These included working with the Federal Acquisition Regulations Council to develop rules and steps for the launch of the Federal Awardee Performance and Integrity Information System (FAPIIS) and working with the General Services Administration to improve the Excluded Parties List System (EPLS).
"The board has implemented a number of modifications to strengthen controls," the report stated. "For example, agencies must use standard contractor identification numbers for all actions entered into the system, which should help prevent companies from operating under different identities. In addition, agencies are required to periodically review their points of contact information to make sure it is up to date. Suspension and debarment officials are also now required to enter actions on EPLS within three rather than five working days."

Still Crazy is a 1998 British comedy film about a fictional 1970s rock band named "Strange Fruit", who, after being split up for two decades, are persuaded to get back together to perform at a reunion of the same concert venue where they played their last gig. The film focuses on the personal lives of the band members and those closest to them, and their individual experiences with approaching middle-age and the success that eluded them.
It was nominated for two Golden Globes in 1999.
Hughie Case is giving a commentary of how, due to the pursuit of "fame, fortune and fornication" (as well as the drug overdose of their original singer, Keith Lovell), that was their last performance. At the start of their set, lightning strikes the stage and technical problems befall their equipment so the band prematurely ends their performance, frustrated over competing egos and various members' lack of self-control. Ray still has delusions of grandeur. Les still resents Ray for having replaced Keith; Les and Beano (and Hughie, although he has little influence in the band) have little hope for the band, firmly believing both Keith and then Brian were the main talent; and Tony begins to make advances to Karen, but she is reluctant to respond as she had always been deeply attached to Brian.
The band, however, is able to break out the bus and the band quickly skips town. On the bus next morning, Les apologises to Ray for his previous remarks (prompted by a white lie from Tony that Ray tried to commit suicide because of Les' comments), and Ray apologises for his behaviour and shares with the rest of the band that, while in the canal, he "received a positive message" from Brian's ghost.
The bus breaks down and Karen confronts the band about their lack of confidence. They meet a girl who's heading to Antwerp wearing a Strange Fruit tour T-shirt. She says it belonged to her father. The band believes this to be another positive omen. The next few shows go down without incident and go over well with audiences and they become slightly more optimistic.
As the band members return to their former lives, Karen and Claire visit Keith's grave to pay their respects.Brian decides to back out of the show, but gives his blessing for the rest of the band to perform. Brian is pleased to hear the band playing the song, which helps him finally overcome his demons and joins the band onstage to play an inspiring guitar solo, much to the surprise and delight of everyone.

It means that courts should not act in a way that demeans the jurisdiction, laws, or judicial decisions of another country.
Islamabad has replied to India's note on December 17, which sought clarification on Pakistan's demand for sending a judicial commission to record the statements of additional chief metropolitan magistrate RV Sawant Waghule and investigating officer Ramesh Mahale.
They recorded 26/11 convict Ajmal Kasab's statement, among others on February 3, just ahead of the foreign secretary-level talks.
India had also proposed sending a panel mandated to obtain the voice samples of the masterminds who gave directions to 26/11 attackers in Mumbai.
In its reply, Pakistan has sought clarifications on terms and reference of the Indian panel.
Afghanistan and UN
The two sides also discussed the ways to address issues such as Afghanistan and working together on issues before the United Nations.
Rao on Qureshi's comment
Sounding caution about going rhetoric on bilateral issues, Rao pitched for making the right atmosphere for the dialogue process to gather momentum. When asked about Pakistan foreign minister Shah Mahmoud Qureshi's recent interview, where he said India should take a fresh look on Kashmir, Rao said "I haven't seen the interview". "We must create a right atmosphere to begin with. Rhetoric will not help," she added.

Awesome review! Love Fall of the New Mutants :)
Fall of New Mutants has been an amazing arc. Really looking forward to reading this issue!
The cover certainly looks awesome! With all the hell stories and the vampires, Marvel must have picked up that people are wanting some horror in their books or something?

This IS a great issue because this story links all the way back to Inferno. I'm going to miss Zeb Wells.
Nice review. But isn't hell and limbo two different things? Because I believe Limbo is the setting for the New Mutants stuff and Hell is where Wolverine and Thor are.

New Mutants got pummeled way to easily, I have to wonder if the Inferno babies will join up with New Mutants after this is over, lots of interesting chars, the black guy had a helmet at the end. Is he a telepath or a speeder?
True still its also appears that he has sometime of molecular destabilization seeing as he killed some of the soldiers and has blood on his uniform.

I agree as he seem to have ran through general combest and vaporized him at the end of NM 16, maybe he has some kind of hyper kinetic ability like speed of young avengers. Also he was seen in the amoeba kid alex in NM 18 speed inside with karma and cannonball or am I mistaken?

"People still have their personhood at the core of who they are," said Dr. Peter Reed, senior director of programs at the Alzheimer's Association. "So the effects [of the disease] do not diminish the individual's need for social interaction, it doesn't diminish their need for dignity and meaning in their life."
Alzheimer's typically causes an individual to forget all but those they see near them regularly, he added. "So, people learn familiarity with the people around them," Reed said, and with that, "they become more comfortable."
The persistence of emotional needs after declines in memory makes some sense on a neurological level, another expert said.
"The Alzheimer's pathology starts in the memory and learning areas of the brain and then spreads," said Dr. Gary Kennedy, director of geriatric psychiatry at the Montefiore Medical Center in New York City. "The direction and extent of the spread varies tremendously from one person to the next. For some, their thinking and memory are largely gone, but their emotional expressiveness may be relatively intact."
Emotions may often be less guarded as Alzheimer's advances, with people showing less reticence to express affection, he added. "In some instances, emotional expressiveness may be augmented by the illness -- in other words, inhibitions may be taken away," Kennedy said.
Sexuality can enter the mix as well, and that's where relationships between Alzheimer's-affected patients get more complicated, Schempp said.
Depending on a person' level of cognition, "there's a kind of moral-ethical issue as to when someone can be consensually involved," she noted. "Some nursing homes just categorically say no, other nursing homes work on it on a case-by-case basis. Some nursing homes say no because the families object, and some nursing homes say yes because the families are OK with it."
Schempp said that, i

The Trimble County High School gymnasium was much like a sauna on a sultry Thursday evening last week as the Lady Raiders hosted Carroll County in volleyball. Trimble jumped to an early lead and never trailed in either contest en route to wins of 25-17 and 25-14.
Trimble Head Coach Ruth Staples noted her team at times had a tendency to coast after building a large lead. In the opening contest Trimble fronted 22-10 before allowing the Lady Panthers a run that brought them within 24-17 before Trimble closed the door.
"That's part of volleyball," Staples said. "When you get a good lead you have a tendency to relax. But I'm happy that they were able to regroup and focus and finish the game."
Carroll County Coach Kristen Hooper said her team plays in spurts and felt that playing on the road wasn't necessarily a factor in the loss.
"It's been a roller coaster," Hooper said of her team's season. "It's hard to diagnose, really. We've lost five or six games by two or three points and we just can't quite seem to sort it out. That's killed some of our motivation and team morale, too."
In the second contest the Lady Panthers stayed within range of Trimble, trailing 14-10 before the Lady Raiders reeled off four straight to lead 18-10. Trimble ultimately raced out to the final 11-point margin.
"Kelsey (Courtney) and Paige (Black) both had good games," Staples said. "They're working really hard on their attacks. But it starts with a good pass or serve receive. If we can receive the serve and pass the ball up to our setter –bump, set, kill—that's our game plan."
Hooper also had praise for Courtney and Black.
"Both of their girls in the middle did an excellent job on their part," Hooper said. "I felt our middle played well but in the end it just wasn't enough. I thought our serve receives were much better tonight than it has in the past. A few little serving errors here and there killed little runs that we could've had. But the main thing was our defense."
Coming off a loss to a strong South Oldham team had Staples concerned about her team.
"I thought it might affect us tonight and I think in the first game it did because I don't think we came out real strong," she said. "I think we felt timid after being beat up on by a strong South Oldham team. Luckily, we were able to get ourselves together. I hope we learn from playing a strong team like South Oldham."
Statistically for the winners, Sara Kuner was 10 for 10 serving and had 24 of 27 sets. Hannah Roberts was 13 for 14 serving with two kills and eight digs. McKenna Ginn was seven for seven serving and 24 of 28 sets. Courtney was four for four serving, had 18 kills and five blocks. Black was 10 for 10 serving, had 11 kills, 14 digs and was eight of 10 serve receptions. Kayla Greenwood was two for two serving. Micah Hess was one for one serving and had a dig. Jayde Snelling had five defensive digs.
"It looks like we only missed one serve," Staples said. "Missing one serve out of two games helps tremendously. We were 47 of 48 serves. I'll take that any day, especially after coming off a loss.
"I think the heat probably had something to do with it, too," Staples said. "We were playing with a heat index of right at 94 and I think that had a lot to do with a lot of things that happened on both sides. I think it affected both teams."

The cognitive changes caused by deterioration of white matter are subtle, Buckner said. "The changes in the crosstalk of brain regions are correlated with mild cognitive changes," he said. "People who have these changes are aging gracefully."
These shifts affect people differently, and not all the older people showed the alterations, Buckner said. Interestingly, some networks, such as the visual system, remained intact.
It may be possible to slow even this normal process of aging, Buckner said. "Maybe we can find ways to age even more gracefully," he added.
Buckner believes living right may help. "There are indications that staying cardiovascularly fit and healthy helps our brains age gracefully," he said. "We now have a way to study aging and to understand the factors that might help all of us age optimally."
The study points out the differences between healthy brain aging and Alzheimer's, one expert said.
"It's interesting that the normal process of brain aging is different from what we see in pre-clinical Alzheimer's," said Paul Sanberg, director of the University of South Florida Center of Excellence for Aging and Brain Repair. "One can tease away what is related to aging, and what is related to a disease."
It's important in developing therapies for Alzheimer's to be able to tell the difference between normal aging and disease, Sanberg said, because "it helps us make sure that we are affecting the right problems."
In addition, knowing how the brain ages normally might make it possible to create cognitive enhancers, Sanberg said.
Another expert noted that Buckner's group looked for signs of Alzheimer's in fewer than 20 percent of the older adults in the study.
"Since one can expect 20 to 30 percent of people in their 80s to develop Alzheimer's and Alzheimer's takes decades to develop, 20 to 30 per

Eric Garcetti is the 42nd Mayor of Los Angeles. Raised in the San Fernando Valley, he earned his B.A. and M.A. from Columbia University. He studied as a Rhodes Scholar at Oxford and the London School of Economics and taught at Occidental College and USC. As a Rhodes Scholar at Oxford University, Garcetti became close friends with Rabbi Shmuley Boteach and was a regular at his L'Chaim Society. Today, Garcetti is the first elected Jewish Mayor in the history of Los Angeles. Garcetti views Judaism as a vehicle for activism. As part of the 2014 Carmen and Louis Warschaw lecture, Mayor Garcetti will discuss the influence of his mixed heritage as a product of a Mexican family on his fa- ther's side and Russian Jews on his mother's side. Both sides of Garcetti's family settled just blocks from each other in Boyle Heightsat the turn of the last century - with his father's family escaping the Mexican Revolution and his maternal side fleeing the Russo-Japanese War. Garcetti grew up eating bowls of menudo at his grandpar- ents' and bagels at his cousins' house, and attended Wilshire Blvd. Temple Jewish summer camp. Garcetti was elected four times by his peers to serve as President of the Los Angeles City Council from 2006 to 2012. From 2001 until taking office as Mayor, he servedas the Councilmember representing the 13th District which includes Hollywood, Echo Park, Silver Lake, and Atwater Village - all of which were dramatically revitalized under Garcetti's leadership. His "back to basics" agenda is focused on job creation and solving everyday problems for L.A. residents.

Rivera gets record 602nd save, Yankees beat Twins
Rivera stayed and accepted congratulations - Alex Rodriguez, Mark Teixeira and finally Jeter came over to him before the bullpen and bench got there while the Twins watched from their dugout.
"I think it shows what he means to baseball, what he's done," Yankees manager Joe Girardi said. "I also think it shows the class of the Minnesota Twins."
Eventually, the Twins went back to their lockers and the Yankees did, too. That meant Rivera was left on the mound. He tried to sneak off the field with them, but longtime teammate Jorge Posada pushed him, laughing, onto the mound, where fans cheered him once again.
And who would've thought it, at least back in 1995 when Rivera started out. He began his career as a starter, lasting only 3 1-3 innings and losing 10-0 to the Angels in his debut, before becoming a star in the bullpen. He posted his first save in 1996, working usually as a setup man for John Wetteland.
Rivera's 602 saves have come in 674 chances. Hoffman got his 601 in 677 tries.
Paid attendance was 40,045, less than the capacity crowd and attendant hullabaloo surrounding Jeter's historic hit. STATS LLC said Monday's makeup game drew the fewest fans since the new Yankee Stadium opened.
"Thank God it's over, too. Because I was getting a little uncomfortable," Rivera said.
New York now has another goal before heading to Tampa Bay to close the season: winning the division. The Yankees lead Boston by 5 1/2 games with 10 to play.
The Twins lost their ninth straight, tying a run in May as their worst of the season. The Yankees have been struggling, too - this was just their fifth win in 12 games.
Rivera has finished their last three victories, though. He got his 600th save in Seattle on Sept. 13.
Now that the milestone is behind him, Rivera can focus on getting ready for his 16th October in 17 seasons - that's when he really made his reputation. Those 602 saves don't count any of the 42 wins - in 47 chances - he locked down in the playoffs.
A.J. Burnett didn't make it past the fifth inning, but Cory Wade (6-1), Boone Logan, Rafael Soriano and David Robertson kept the Twins at bay until Rivera came on in the ninth, and Curtis Granderson hit his 41st homer of the year.
Granderson's homer off Scott Diamond (1-5) came in the first after Jeter reached on an infield single and Robinson Cano hit an RBI triple in the third followed by Swisher's single to make it 5-0. Rodriguez hit a two-out RBI single in the sixth - right around the time Rivera was realizing he could be called on in the ninth.
As he has been since he got his first save on May 17, 1996, Mo was ready in the ninth. The only thing he wasn't quite set for was the spotlight.
"Don't get me wrong, it feels good," Rivera said. "The reception was wonderful. I could not ask for anything more than that."

The sound going only through the temporal bone should seem quieter in a normal ear because the ossicles of the middle ear concentrate the sound energy at the oval window. Otitis media may produce conduction deafness so that the sound will appear to be louder coming through the temporal bone than through the ossicles (i.e., conduction deafness) (Deeper insight 16.2, on p. 598, Deeper insight 16.3 onp. 605, and Fig. 16.17 on p. 604).

Can someone tell me the size of the hole in the case around the headphone port? I have a set of Shure In-ear monitors I use and they have a fat body around the plug, about 3/8".
I have modified the Samsung case to make it work, but looks ugly. Kinda matches the side I cut to get the flip cover to work with it.
Looking for a new case and this one just came on my radar.

How do they expect to keep there customers happy if they never advertise a release of new Ultra bios or even that there is a problem with there cards. I realize they just started selling there own products on line, but now it is time to build a good report with there product owners. Not too happy that I bought PNY!

This was a time of change in the area: Pease saw the arrival of King Otto in the new Greek kingdom; he commented on the turbulent affairs of the Near East under Muhammad Ali; he was himself involved in the movement for social and intellectual reform in Cyprus. Keenly observant, curious, well-educated and a born linguist, Pease filled his diaries with accounts of the places and people he saw - customs, monuments, education and religious life, metereology and geology: for much he provides a unique and well-informed witness. He writes, too, of his mission, of the work of his fellow missionaries within the Ottoman Empire, and of his family - two of his children lie buried with him in Cyprus.

According to a recent article of USA Today, the number of dogs being stolen has risen dramatically in 2011.
Stealing dogs with the intention of demanding a ransom from the owner is not
a new phenomenon. In fact, the first ever dognapping case was recorded in 1934. The stolen Boston Terrier was returned to its
owner after 5 long months so the story had a happy ending.
Dogs become part of our families. They will be just like a small brother or
sister to the kids. And when they are kidnapped and there is a chance that
money can buy them back, we pay gladly – provided that we have the money
demanded, that is.
Over time, as conformation showing became more popular, show dogs became the
targets of thieves. It's easy to see that if the owner of a regular dog is
willing to pay thousands of dollars in ransom, the owner of a valuable show dog
might pay tens of thousands of dollars to get his pooch back.
Dognapping – not only for ransom but reselling, experiments and a number of
other purposes – has become widespread in the United States by the 60's. So
much so that it had actually become one of the most talked about issues of the
time. The public dismay and the floods of letters demanding something to be
done put enormous pressure on the senate. As a result, the "Dognapping Law",
which became the Animal Welfare Act of 1966 was born.
1. A dog's parents will never visit you.
2. A dog loves you when you leave your clothes on the floor.
3. A dog limits its time in the bathroom to a quick drink.
4. A dog never expects you to telephone.
5. A dog will not get mad at you if you forget its birthday.
6. A dog does not care about the previous dogs in your life.
7. A dog does not get mad at you if you pet another dog.
8. A dog never expects flowers on Valentine's Day.
9. The later you arrive, the happier a dog is to see you….
10. A dog does not shop.
This has to be shared! Although I am a gal, I still find it funny. I came upon it , while reading another puppy blog, called "Miniature Yorshire Terrier" Blog. I do hope they won't mind me quoting them, but this is just too cute.
All dogs bark. Is that true? Well no. Not all dogs bark, but most do. Owners of a Basenji, an Alaskan Malamute, and an Afghan Hound can take it easy and enjoy the silence around them. However there are dogs that are typically big barkers and these include the Jack Russell, Yorkshire Terrier, Maltese, Mudi, Vizsla, Shetland Dog, Newfoundland, German Shepherd, Dachshund, Beagle, West-Highland Terrier, Toy Poodle, Doberman and the Schnauzer.
So what to do when you have to listen to incessant barking? Not only your sleep, but your neighbors' nerves will also be affected. Although one understands that barking is natural for dogs, there comes a time when enough is enough. What to do then? Training might help…but an anti-barking dog collar might do the trick as well.
What is an anti-barking dog collar you ask? Well this is special type of collar that triggers a reaction out of a dog…and after repetitively negatively stimulating the dog with every bark, the dog slowly but surely learns not to bark. There are different types of anti bark collars available. There are dog collars that deliver a light shock to your dog as a reaction to barking. There is also a type of dog collar that sprays mists of citronella. This smell is not welcomed by dogs and they sooner stop barking than continue smelling the fumes of citronella around them. This is a more humane solution because it does not inflict pain to the dog.
So how effective is an anti barking dog collar, you ask?
Just because you live in a small home or apartment doesn't mean you can't have a dog. There are a lot of small toy and companion breeds that can make excellent pets for people with small flats or homes. However, you should remember that even small dogs like variety and exercise, so be prepared to take your small dog for walks. Once you have made that commitment to yourself, you can choose which breed of dog is most suitable to you and your lifestyle.
Small dog breeds make the cutest puppies, and one of the cutest small dog puppies around is the Maltese. This popular small dog breed usually only grows no more than six or seven pounds in weight. It has a beautiful white coat. The Maltese is a very ancient dog breed and has a strong constitution. However, don't keep it in very hot areas, due to its thick coat. This is a very playful little dog. A Maltese makes a great companion if you like lively little pets and enjoy the grooming chores as well.
Another very cute long haired small dog breed is the Cavalier King Charles Spaniel . This lovely small dog is as elegant as its name and weighs about twice as much as a Maltese. The Cavalier is a friendly small dog that gives a lifetime of loyal attachment. This is the ideal dog if you prefer to lead a quiet life.
Top of the line in long haired small dog breeds is the Lowchen. If you enjoy spending long hours brushing, and don't mind the hefty price tag of this little dog, then the Lowchen is for you. The beautiful `Little Lion' dog can cost anything from $1000 and upwards. The Lowchen is a true indoors and it also seems to suffer from`separation anxiety' so don't get this dog breed if you are away for long hours every day.
If you prefer a little dog with a shorter coat,
World's smallest dog….. The smallest dog in history was a tiny Yorkshire Terrier from Blackburn, England. At two years of age and fully grown this little dude was an incredible 2.5 inches (6.35 cm) tall by 3.75 inches (9.5cm) long! He weighed only 4 ounces (113grams)! He was approximately the size of a matchbox.
Gotta love that face….
Being very portable, easily adaptable to different climates and more affordable in maintenance, it is no wonder that small breed dogs are growing in popularity. Noted for being lively and energetic, they make terrific pets for apartments and are comfort dogs as well. People living alone or the elderly feel better with them around. The following small dogs are popular for their uniqueness.
Shih Tzu's': Lion appearance demands attention and respect
Yorkshire terriers: Crave for owner's company and are known to be jealous.
Pugs: Sweet and huggable
Chihuahuas: Charismatic and have big hearts.
Smaller dogs tend to have a longer life expectancy and not subjected to health concerns of big dogs such as hip dysplasia or arthritis. However keep in mind that smaller dogs don't mean smaller responsibilities. They still need attention, love and visits to your local veterinarian.
Nature rewarded me with a love for dogs and an allergy for cats. Had it been the other way around, I might not be writing this article right now. Yet, although I steer clear of cats – for mostly this reason- I would find it unbearable if I were allergic to dogs. Yet some people are not so lucky, since they are allergic to dogs as well. For those dog lovers out there who suffer from allergies, upon high-fiving a doggy-paw, there really is a cure. A cure? Well…..apart from the anti-histamine tablets and nose-drops to alleviate post-nasal drip, the trick really lies in finding the right dog – and more correctly, the right dog breed – for you.
What are the reactions that cause humans to suffer from allergies? The allergic response is triggered when our immune system reacts to a perceived threat. Some people have a bad reaction to dander (flaky dead skin cells), saliva or secretion from the sebaceous glands of their dogs. Allergy sufferers can also react to the dust, pollen and dirt that gets caught up and spread around by their dogs.
So what is a hypoallergenic dog breed? Well, hypoallergenic dog breeds, are those breeds that are considered the most suitable for those who suffer from allergies. Although they do produce some dander, the amount is so small that very few people experience allergy symptoms when in contact with these breeds. Hypoallergenic dog breeds are usually single-coated, non-shedding (or low-shedding), generally smaller dogs, those dogs that retain the dander due to their curly coat, or are naked!
A list below shows those breeds that are best suited for allergy sufferers. If you have your sights set on another breed, then the best test to determine whether your allergies will be affected, is to spend 20 minutes in a closed off and confined area with the dog. Cars tend to work well for this. This is a simple test which can save the owner from heartbreak in the future.
However, do bear in mind, that no dog is completely 100% hypoallergenic. The ones below only have a much lower dander producing and shedding activity than the other 100 or so breeds and are thus recommended.
The former host of VH1's top 20 Video countdown is now a comedian! And she has the most adorable Yorkshire Terrier (Yorkie)! His name is Dignan. In the picture below, you can see that Alison has cut his hair short. She's mentioned that on her blog, as well as the fact that he's not a "Teacup" Yorkie.
Yorkshire Terriers are plucky dogs who retain their courage and self esteem in spite of the fact that they can have a small size. The breeding standards don't mention ideal height for the Yorkie, and so they can be extremely small, or sort of medium sized like Alison's.
Yorkshire Terriers are also more intelligent than most other dogs. They have a fantastic ability to remember commands and understand what they person is saying. As such, they are excellent candidates for jobs where such skills are required.
The tails of Yorkies are traditionally docked. However, there have been growing movements to stop this practice. It depends on the state you live in as well as the preference of the individual owner.
Phobe Price, who launched her new fragrance "Phoebe's Phantasy" recently, has her very own Yorkshire Terrier called Henry.
Phoebe was in the news recently for Suing Chanel for not letting her into an elite party! Nevertheless, her Yorkshire Terrier looks really handsome. And his name is Henry.
Though Yorkshire Terriers are looked on as toy dogs, they are remarkably self confident and intelligent. In fact, they will occasionally challenge dogs much larger than they are. However, they never assert themselves in a mean way among other dogs, and are therefore often chosen for inclusion into families with existing dogs.
They also don't need to be pampered all the time and will be content to walk instead of being carried. A leftover trait from their lives as terriers perhaps?
Want to see some more cute Yorkies?
The beautiful daughter of Donald Trump owns a Yorkshire Terrier. They have a very playful nature, and are the second most popular breed in the US after the Labrador Retriever. They are not noted for 'Alpha' male behavior and relate very well with other dogs. This is an advantage if you are looking for a second or third dog for your home.

Stocks end higher
popular .
Local stocks firmed up Tuesday after a three-day slowdown, in line with mostly buoyant Asian markets.
The main-share Philippine Stock Exchange index regained 10.34 points or 0.15 percent to close at 6,728.
Across the region, markets were mostly higher as investors hunted for bargains after the decline in previous days. Asian stocks rose for the first time in five days alongside the rebound in Japanese equities. The day's catalysts were a report that Japan's jobless rate in June stood lower than expected while the People's Bank of China conducted its first reverse repurchase deals since February, adding liquidity to the financial system.
However, investors were still generally cautious ahead of the two-day US Federal Reserve Open Market Committee meeting from which investors await clues on the direction of monetary policy. A statement from FOMC is expected Wednesday.
At the local market, trading was mixed across counters, with the financial index (+1.11 percent) leading the main barometer higher. Gains made by BPI (+2.59 percent) and BDO (+2.01 percent) perked up the sub-index.
The holding firms and services, meanwhile, posted marginal gains.
The biggest loser among the sub-indices was the mining/oil counter (-2.54 percent) while the industrial and property counters also ended lower.
The index decliners were Metro Pacific Investments
(-2.66 percent) and Semirara
(-2.11 percent) while SM Prime, Philex and Megaworld all declined more than 1 percent. Petron, Energy Development Corp., Universal Robina, Jollibee and First Gen also ended lower.
Total value turnover amounted to P7.27 billion. Despite the modest index gain, overall market was still sluggish as 58 advancers were overwhelmed by 100 decliners while 36 stocks were unchanged. Doris C. Dumlao

Cubs look to interview Rays bench coach Dave Martinez
OCT 14, 2013 8:57p ET
The person, speaking on condition of anonymity because of the confidential nature of the search, confirmed reports by several media outlets. The interview took place in Southern California on Monday. The person also said the Cubs will interview Tampa Bay bench coach Dave Martinez this week.
Chicago fired Dale Sveum after going 127-197 the past two seasons while hoping to develop young players. Renteria is known for his teaching ability and has managed in San Diego's and Miami's minor league systems.
Martinez has spent the past six seasons as the Rays' bench coach and could be a good fit with Cubs management because Tampa Bay relies heavily on statistical analysis.

No need for new legislation; some fine-tuning of existing law can meet the desired objectives of reform
There is scope for reducing corruption through e-governance, making company law administration transparent, accountable and effective.
THE MCA-21 Initiative of the Ministry of Company Affairs facilitating e-filing of documents under Indian Company Law is commendable in many ways. First, this is perhaps the first time a government in independent India has moved swiftly to put in place a mechanism that is imaginative, technologically savvy and stakeholder friendly. In a record time of 60 weeks, the MCA-21 Initiative has gone live. Second, there is a good public-private partnership between the Ministry and Tata Consultancy Services (TCS) whereby the latter will man the front offices of all Registrar of Companies (RoC) offices across the country to facilitate easy stabilisation of e-filing of documents under company law.Last, inspection of any document relating to a company allowed under company law can now be done online from anywhere on payment of the prescribed fee. So far so good.
Role for e- governance
A major factor for the absence of transparency, accountability and effectiveness in company law administration in India is corruption in RoC offices and in the central bureaucracy in charge of company law. While e-filing will reduce public interface with RoC offices thereby minimising the scope for corruption, unless comprehensive e-governance embracing all aspects of company law administration is introduced, rule of law for the corporate sector will remain a distant dream. MCA-21 should be used imaginatively as a stepping stone for total e-governance. While e-filing of mortgages is possible today, it should be possible to secure a certificate of registration of mortgages through e-filing with a marginal change in the law. The approvals under the company law should be available through e-filing in one or two months. Wherever approvals are delayed or denied, clear reasons for the same should be posted on the ministry website. The plea of confidentiality to deny such information should be made very rarely. Whenever the Department of Company Affairs represents before the High Court under Section 394 A of the Companies Act, 1956 in respect of an amalgamation or de-merger of companies, its written representation should be posted on its website. These are some cases to illustrate the scope for reducing corruption through e-governance, making company law administration transparent, accountable and effective.
Outdated tribunals
Once company law administration is brought under e-governance, the extant law as contained in the Companies Act, 1956 will not appear to be behind times. Tribunalisation has not met with much success in India. One of the drawbacks of tribunals in the Indian context is their perceived lack of independence in contrast to Constitutional courts. Unless this aspect is effectively tackled, no tribunal can replace courts. To that extent, the proposal to set up national company law tribunals in their present form will not serve the cause of the rule of law for the corporate sector. Further, the proposal for a new company law following the recommendations of the Irani Committee has to be pursued with caution as the same is likely to be stuck in judicial controversy over excessive delegated legislation. As almost 90 per cent of the Irani Committee proposals is already on the statute book, what all is required is some fine-tuning.
Time for a re-look
While companies should be free to shift their registered offices from one State to another, doing away with confirmation of the Company Law Board is not desirable given the peculiarities of the Indian corporate sector. The charge that such confirmation takes a long time is not warranted as in most cases it does not take more than 3-4 months. While the freedom to do business through many subsidiary companies should not be restricted as suggested by the committee, the requirement to co-opt an independent director of the holding company on the board of each subsidiary should continue, especially in the case of listed companies, to provide healthy oversight of their operations.The number of independent directorships a person can hold should also be set down in law. Ideally this number should be much less than ten. The committee has not recommended this.
Audit committees
The composition of the audit committee is quite important from a corporate governance perspective. Any dilution in independence and competency levels of the audit committee will directly impinge on the level of corporate governance. Hence, the committee's recommendation that at least one member of the audit committee should have knowledge of financial management or audit or accounts is not appropriate in the Indian context. The prescription in the revised Clause 49 of the Listing Agreement as mandated by SEBI for listed companies should be the law for listed companies as far as audit committees are concerned. The committee has rightly recommended the presence of one independent director as mandatory even at emergency board meetings. Such an independent director may be present in person or through video conferencing or some other electronic mode.The recommendation that the chairman of a meeting should have the power to overrule the demand for a poll under certain circumstances may go against the grain of corporate democracy. Instead the threshold eligibility for demanding a poll can be fixed at one-tenth of the voting power or shares of paid up value of not less than Rs. 50 lakh whichever is less.The committee has recommended that participation or non-participation by interested shareholders on a matter of business at general meetings should be left to the companies to make appropriate provisions in their articles of association. The credibility of company law as a tool of corporate governance rests precariously on such provisions. Hence it is important that interested shareholders of listed companies should be barred from participating and voting on such matters at general meetings.A recommended provision in company law allowing quasi loans to directors and funding of their expenditure to be repaid later will lead to pernicious practices.The committee wants the present Section 208 that allows payment of interest on share capital with Government approval should be deleted. On the other hand it should be retained given the peculiarities of the Indian corporate sector, with exemptions provided for infrastructure and other long gestation projects as may be prescribed.Today mergers in India are completed in 4-6 months barring notable exceptions. Hence, any change of law in this regard should be mad with caution. The recommendation to permit contractual mergers without the intervention of a court or tribunal is misconceived.
Sound recommendations
However, except for the few mentioned above, the recommendations of the Irani Committee are quite noteworthy. Past efforts of the government to re-codify the company law have failed miserably. And re-codification at this time may be a long drawn process with no commensurate results. With the notification of many of the provisions already brought in by the Companies (Second Amendment) Act, 2002 and some of the suggested changes of the Irani Committee being implemented by way of amendments to the Companies Act, 1956, company law reform may have been achieved to a large extent. It must be reiterated that any further reform can be attempted largely through the introduction of e-governance in the administration of the company law with minor amendments to the existing law.L.

Baby Name Dilemma: A No-Nickname Name
We have a spunky smart little girl named Ivy Catherine. Her name is perfect. Having a rough time for the boy due in September.
I like names that don't have nicknames attached. Better to be traditional than trendy, for me. But I like somewhat unique….. Help?
Ivy's such a great name—and definitely one that doesn't lend itself to nicknames. But it does seem like plenty of boys' names end up with nicknames. (I remember how my aunt was insistent that my cousin was Matthew, not Matt—but he goes by Matt now!)
Here are some names that might work within your parameters—I've highlighted a few of my favorites.
Henry does have Hank as a nickname, but most of the Henrys I know don't go by it. This is a royal name with a long history—it actually means "ruler." And it never goes out of style.
Jude has been on a bit of a popularity climb since the turn of the 21st century, but it appears to have leveled off for the past few years in the top 200, making it popular but not overused. It's most well known for the Beatles song, and the patron saint of those in trouble. It's one of my favorite picks for boys.
Rory and Ivy make a lovely sibset. Rory means "red king," and it's one of those rare unisex names that's actually skewing more toward the boys right now.
Ian is the Scottish take on "John," and it's been a steady top 100 favorite since the 1980s. I like that your kids would have the same initials, without being too closely related.
Wyatt and Emmett are two classic names with a nice, sharp T ending that pairs nicely with your last name, Meier. Or look for names that end with the "ee" sound, like Ivy. I like Ari and Bailey, which don't lend themselves to nicknames.
Three other one-syllable names that might work for you: Shane, Miles, and Jake.
Okay, readers, it's your turn: What other names do you think suit our reader's parameters? Share them in the comments.
If you have a big baby name dilemma, share it with me at firstname.lastname@example.com, and I'll share my help with you here—or you might just be featured in a future issue of our sister publication, American Baby. (You can also do some DIY name picking with our Baby Name Finder.)

The fact that he dug in his heels in the State, when others were fleeing, his towering presence, his love for music and his silence which conveyed more than words were among the aspects that found mention at a condolence meeting of R.P. Goenka arranged by FICCI, the Indian Chamber of Commerce, CII and the Merchants Chamber of Commerce.
Among those present were: S.K. Birla, Deepak Khaitan, Sisir Bajoria, K.K. Bangur, C.K. Dhanuka, Guarav Swarup, Dipak Jalan, Rajiv Mundhra, former Lok Sabha Speaker Somnath Chatterjee, Rajya Sabha member N.K. Singh and West Bengal Chief Secretary Sanjay Mitra
Mr. Chatterjee said that as far as West Bengal was concerned there was no question of repaying the debt to Goenka who expanded his business activity during difficult times.
Speaking of a man he knew for 49 years, Mr. Singh said that it was wrong to describe Goenka as a takeover king. "He should be called makeover king as he shaped lives by taking keen interest in academia, society and heritage. He leaves behind a challenge for this generation," he said.
