Perfect Soft-and-Moist Meat Loaf - Main Courses
Print version
Perfect Soft-and-Moist Meat Loaf
A tremendous comfort-food rating, and makes it a perfect partner for any pale gravy you'd like to pour over or around it
3 cups soft white bread cubes
1 egg
2/3 cup milk
1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
1 3/4 teaspoons salt
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
1/2 teaspoon dried basil
1/4 teaspoon dried thyme
1/8 teaspoon nutmeg
1 medium onion, finely chopped
1/2 cup finely chopped celery with leaves
1/4 cup finely chopped fresh parsley
12 slices bacon, lightly browned and torn into small pieces
2 pounds ground beef
1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
2. Place bread cubes in large bowl. Beat egg and milk together in small bowl, then pour over bread cubes. Let stand until bread absorbs milk, about 15 minutes. Mash and stir mixture until bread is in very small chunks.
3. Add mustard, salt, pepper, basil, thyme, nutmeg, onion, celery, parsley, and bacon. Mix well. Add ground beef, and mix well. Refrigerate overnight.
4. Turn mixture into 8 inch by 5 inch loaf pan. Bake in oven for 55 minutes. Let stand 5 minutes before slicing.
This style of meat loaf achieves its distinction by using cubes of white bread (not bread crumbs) that have been soaked in eggs and milk; the finished texture is very tender, and not particularly dense. The particular soft-and-moist loaf given here has a few other virtues. It is rather subtly seasoned, allowing the flavor of the beef to come through. It is not free-standing, but cooked in a loaf pan -- which minimizes the browning that occurs on the outside of the meat loaf, further emphasizing the soft and moist textural qualities. And it is pale, without any tomato coating -- which gives it a tremendous comfort-food rating, and makes it a perfect partner for any pale gravy you'd like to pour over or around it. Serves 6

Sinking their five-year-old differences, Maharashtra Navnirman Sena (MNS) chief Raj Thackeray today shared dais with Amitabh Bachchan and said that whatever happened between him and the actor is now a thing of the past.
Praising the actor for his immense contribution to the Indian film industry, Raj said Amitabh Bachchan is not the brand ambassador of any state in particular but of the nation.
Raj made it clear that he sticks to his words said in the past but also clarified that there was nothing personal between them.
"What happened in the past is done. It was never ever personal. Time and again, from my speeches, I have been repeating that an actor of his stature has not dawned on the screen in the past 100 years in the country and probably never would even in the future. And thus, he belongs to India and he is an ambassador of the entire nation," Thackeray said.
He was speaking at the seventh anniversary of his party's movie industry wing Maharashtra Navnirman Chitrapat Karmachari Sena (MNCKS) at the Shanmukhanand Hall in Central Mumbai.
"Just like citizens of Allahabad love Amitabh Bachchan, so do people of Maharashtra," Thackeray said, adding people in the country love Lata Mangeshkar, Sachin Tendulkar and Bachchan similarly.
"One must learn the command over the language from him. The finesse in Hindi that he possesses. While hosting 'Kaun Banega Crorepati' he is remarkable and could be learnt from," Thackeray said.
Earlier, Bachchan won the hearts of the audience by addressing them in Marathi. He congratulated and thanked Raj Thackeray for initiatives like life insurance policies for backstage artistes.
"Whatever I am today, is because of the tireless efforts by these artistes and technicians. By giving them an insurance cover, MNS has really honoured them. It is a proud moment for me to honour these artistes," Bachchan said.
In his bass barritone voice, the actor then recited a few lines from his father, the late poet Harishvanshrai Bachchan's poem called 'Agneepath', much to the delight of the packed house.

The duals of harmonic Bergman spaces
Abstract | References | Similar Articles | Additional Information
Abstract: In this paper we show that for , a starlike Lipschitz domain, the dual of the space of harmonic functions in need not be the harmonic functions in , where . We show that, as a consequence, the harmonic Bergman projection for need not extend to a bounded operator on for all . The duality result is a partial answer to a question of Nakai and Sario [9] posed initially in the Proceedings of the London Mathematical Society in 1978. We treat the duality question as a biharmonic problem, and our result follows from the failure of uniqueness for the biharmonic Dirichlet problem in domains with sharp intruding corners.

Supervalu Makes First Quarter Progress
Thursday October 17th, 2013 - 12:04PM
These are shortcuts to your favorite social networking and bookmark sites. Add this story to your Facebook page, del.icio.us, DiggIt, and many others!
In the fiscal first quarter, Supervalu, Inc. posted net earnings of $40 million, or 15 cents per diluted share, versus a loss of $111 million, or 26 cents per diluted share, for the period a year ago. The company reported that identical store sales in the Retail Food segment were negative 0.9% while idents in its Save-A-Lot store network were negative 0.3%, even though those for Save-A-Lot corporate stores gained 4.6%.
Excluding one-time items, second quarter net earnings were $33 million, or 13 cents per diluted share. Earnings beat a Thomson Reuter's analyst average estimate of 11 cents per share.
Net sales were $3.95 billion versus $3.94 billion in the 2012 period. Operating earnings in the second quarter were $112 million versus a loss of $12 million in the year-prior period.
"Similar to what we outlined in the first quarter, we remain focused on delivering steady improvements in our business each and every quarter," said Sam Duncan, Supervalu president and CEO. "While our end goal won't be achieved overnight, I am encouraged with our results this quarter and, more importantly, the way we are achieving these results by building a strong foundation that is focused on our customers."

"Beautiful Beaches but dangerous parking" Toa Baja by lonestar_philomath
Toa Baja Travel Guide: 0 reviews and 3 photos
The two hours I spent at this beach to the east of San Juan was great. I soaked in the tide pool, body surfed, and sunned on the beach. By the time I got back to the rental car, all the windows where broken in and the radio and contents in the trunk!
Even though the policeman who stopped was polite, he refused to speak English to me but he could tell what had happened. He gave me his card and wrote a report. When I returned to the car rental company, it was fortunate that the extra insurance was taken BUT beware, this insurance does not cover personal effects that were stolen.
I would not recommend anyone go to the beaches outside of San Juan alone! Go with a Puerto Rican and ride with them!
To get to this beach, Head east out of San Juan on Highway 22.
Get off the highway at exit 13, route 167.
When you reach the coastline, turn east (left) and travel until you see the beach.
Best to meet your local contact at home, and take their car. Seems as if locals' automobiles are not touched by thieves.
- In a nutshell:Beautiful beach - Park at your own risk

My drawing buddy Farel Dalrymple has a new graphic novel out from First Second titled WRENCHIES. On the surface, it appears a post-apocalyptic adventure, but underneath it's a meta, existentialist, psychedelic, and deeply personal epic. WRENCHIES explores religious upbringing, guilt, addiction, and self-destructive tendencies while leavening it with moments of child-like, nerdy bliss and the most endearing chubby kid in a homemade superhero outfit named Hollis. Haunting and glowing. If you're in Portland, FLOATING WORLD is hosting a launch for the book from 6-10pm this Thursday, August 7th.

|pile of trash in fine art & folk art
|July 20th, 2014
For those of you asking about Dave Stewart's process coloring SPACE DUMPLINS, there's a great interview up at FROM THE GUTTERS.
Dave is tackling some ridiculously detailed panels. Here's one I just drew of an outer space landfill.
As ever, the reference is hodgepodged from both low brow & high brow sources. A) The FOLK ART side hails from the graveyard of cars rusting in the forest behind my parents' rural Wisconsin home. (See page 533 of BLANKETS for more wooded trash heaps.) B) The FINE ART side is Nancy Rubin's "Airplane Parts" sculpture at the Museum of Contemporary Art in Los Angeles.

Just returned from one month in France where I began a collaborative book with 72 year old French comics master Edmond BAUDOIN.
(A – Edmond with Cambodian cartoonist Tian, left. Amiens Cathedral, right.)
(B – Signing at the Palais du Commerce, left. Little Prince statue in Place Bellecour, right.)
After book signings at the A) Amiens BD festival and B) Lyon BD festival, Edmond & I retreated to his childhood haunts of Villars-sur-Var –
Our timing aligned with village festival of their patron St. Jean – documented in Baudoin's book LE CHEMIN DE SAINT JEAN.
Our collaborative project has just begun… the next step is Edmond visiting my stomping grounds in Portland & Wisconsin… BUT for the rest of the year, I plunge back into SPACE DUMPLINS to hit that deadline for a FALL 2015 release – the tenth anniversary of Scholastic's GRAPHIX line.

|les petits riens
|June 10th, 2014
"Little Nothings" — that's the title for a book Maurice Sendak was working on when he died- based on Mozart's first ballet.
In the last year of his life, Maurice became an adopted grandfather and we chatted weekly on the phone. I transcribed bits of his conversations, almost all of which are too personal or vulnerable or hilariously vulgar to share here on the blog… but to commemorate his birthday, I found something petit. On July 31, 2011 speaking of his other project left unfinished – "THE NOSE BOOK", Maurice said,
"I am writing something. A door is opening — moreso a WINDOW is opening. It's FUNNY. I've never written anything funny before. No tragic overtones… just plain silly. But I'm not gonna judge it, or condemn it. … Which is very unlike me."
The photo is with my dear cartoonist buddy Aaron Renier who introduced us in 2011.
In a later conversation, Maurice said, "I've been feeling fetid in my efforts at writing. Feel as if the creative spirit has departed. It better not leave me or I'll have a SHIT FIT!" That's how I was feeling when I left for France – I'm in Paris today – taking a breather from SPACE DUMPLINS to work in a sketchbook outside the studio again.
One more: "You just gotta get old and whatever was unattractive about your work is suddenly all right. Everything becomes silly."
Still miss him everyday.

Related to the straight-to-sketchbook project mentioned in the last post, I'll be spending the month of June in France. While there, I'll also participate in the Amiens BD festival and the Lyon BD festival to compensate for my abbreviated French presence during 2011's HABIBI book tour. As some may recall, the French edition of HABIBI was late from the printers and so I'd done press at that time, but no signings.
To prep for travel, my friend Lucie is tutoring me in French. Here's a little excerpt from my study notebook — a homework exercise to "write (& draw) a dialogue with two (or ten) characters" in which Little Zacchaeus (from CARNET and SPACE DUMPLINS) interacts with references from some favorite bande dessinée – including PETIT VAMPIRE VA À L'ECOLE by Joann Sfar, LES OGRES by David B. & Christophe Blain, CÉFULUS by Ludovic Debeurme, and SALADE NIÇOISE by Baudoin. (Translated or not, it makes no sense.)

|digital pencil & analog ink
|May 1st, 2014
Thanks for the reminder about the Cintiq post, Dan. As mentioned back in August 2013, I've been experimenting with the Wacom Cintiq as a way to shake up & expand my working methods. The 13″ felt too cramped & claustrophobic, so early this year I upgraded to a 22″ Cintiq on an Ergotron arm – inspired by Fiona Staples, whose work on SAGA I admire.
For the past couple of months, I wrestled with the machine & have settled on a compromise common among comics pros – I pencil the pages digitally, then print out blue lines and ink on actual paper.
The advantage of digital penciling is I can see a chapter all at once (top right photo), cut&paste, zoom in close, edit on the fly, and work standing up (top left photo, avec Momo). But digital inking still looks too slick to me — I prefer the flawed & tangible qualities of fussy sable brushes on paper. Foot in both worlds!
Finally, my advice to young cartoonists is to keep it organic & raw and not get bogged down by plug-in devices. In a month, I'll be starting a direct-to-sketchbook project like CARNET DE VOYAGE to relearn working on the fly outside the studio.

|kazim ali & jens harder
|April 10th, 2014
This morning's clutter on the drafting table – inking several SPACE DUMPLINS pages simultaneously. Also my friend Kazim Ali is in town for a reading from his new book SKY WARD at Reed College TONIGHT (6:30 Elliot Hall Chapel) for those of you in Portland. Here he's writing Arabic on my new Cintiq (more on that in some future post… As evidenced above, I'm still inking with actual India ink & brush.).
Finally, this just arrived in the post – BETA (…civilizations volume 1) by German cartoonist Jens Harder. In this intricate, mind-boggling, coolest possible coffee table book, Jens catalogues the history of human evolution & civilization. Every image in the 365 page tome (apparently the first in a trilogy) is sampled from existing media – cave paintings, etchings, pottery, photographs, film, comics, etc. then redrawn in Jens' meticulous brush lines. For those of you who thought HABIBI was nuts, this takes it to the next level. Speaking of which, here's a page that references HABIBI in the development of written language.
A favorite page of mine groups CHRIS WARE alongside Caravaggio, Courbet, and Magritte to name a few.

|color tweaks & carnet's tenth
|March 5th, 2014
Just wanted to share some of the incredible work Dave Stewart's pouring into the SPACE DUMPLINS colors.
We decided the palette was getting too muted & subdued, so he's tweaking the pages just enough to infuse the grimy dinginess of outer space clutter with a burst of cartoony, kid-friendly levity. Previous incarnations on the left – updated versions on the right.
In other news, I realized that today is the exact ten year anniversary of my CARNET DE VOYAGE travel & book. To celebrate, I dug around for a photo or two, but they were sparse, because as noted in the back of the book, zero cameras were used in the creation of it. It is my unaltered travel diary begun March 5th, 2004 and ended May 14th, 2004. The week following, my buddy Frédéric and I scanned the three sketchbooks and layed out the book in Lyon, France – no edits other than a proofread from my non-native English speaking friends.

Nature has enough to satisfy man's needs but not to satisfy his greeds
– Mahatma Gandhi.
Today, man has exploited natural resources to a great extent just to satisfy his luxury and his greeds. However, many efforts are being taken lately to spread awareness about and take measures for the conservation of our environment. One such step in support of environmental protection is Earth Day. Every year, April 22 is celebrated as Earth Day all over the world. Various activities and events are held across the globe to contribute some bit towards the green cause.
This year, to mark Earth Day, the Bombay Natural History Society (BNHS) organised a painting competition for underprivileged children at its Conservation Education Centre (CEC) in Mumbai on Tuesday, April 22. The theme for the competition was 'Sparrow, my friend'. Around 45 children from localities near the centre in Goregaon, living in slums, participated in the competition. They were divided into two groups: 5th to 7th standard children, around 20 of them, comprised the first group, and 25 children from 8th to 10th standards formed the second. the competition was two hours long and all the materials required, like paper, paints, reference material, etc., were provided to them by the organisers.
The young artists were seen completely engrossed in their art works centred around their winged friends – sparrows. Their canvases were soon adorned with colourful images straight from their imaginations and the innocent interpretations of the theme. Trees, mountains, butterflies, birds, and everything else from nature found place on their drawing sheets, along with messages like 'Save Sparrows'.
An artist from Mumbai, Chitra Vaidya, was the judge for the event. She is an avid painter and a popular art teacher. Appreciating the initiative by BNHS, she said, "Organising such a competition will provide these children with a good opportunity to do something in their summer vacations. The theme being so easy and simple, will enhance their observation and liking towards the humble bird, which can easily be seen around our homes. The only thing I expect from them and I would like to see is how well they express their observations on paper."
The prizes for the winners included binoculars, sparrow-nests, kids birds' books, BNHS caps and badges and other exciting gifts. However, the enthusiasm and the happiness of the children was in itself rewarding. Riya Shinde, a 10th standard girl, speaking about the sparrows said, "The number of sparrows is reducing now-a-days because of the pollution caused due to industries. To save sparrows, we have to decrease the number of industries." Such innocent thoughts lay the foundation for big ideas. "Earth Day is celebrated to save our planet Earth as all the things – trees, birds, animals – are declining in numbers. Something needs to be done about it."
Sparrows were one of the most common birds in Mumbai, but now its population is dwindling. The BNHS event was their way to demonstrate their concern towards the feathered little neighbours. While green lifestyles need to be imbibed for all the 365 days of the year, occasions such as Earth Day can be a good chance to embark on such as journey. If each one of us takes the responsibility to contribute towards making a difference, however small it be, the Earth would be a better place to live in.
About BNHS-CEC:
The BNHS-CEC, in Goregaon (East), built on 33 acres of forested land, next to Sanjay Gandhi National Park (SGNP), is truly a delightful place amidst much green cover. Several innovative programmes are held to achieve environmental awareness among target groups ranging from students, teachers, government officials and corporate groups. Through the CEC, the BNHS aims to support biodiversity conservation in and around protected areas as well as around human habitations.

Why the ruffled feathers? More than 300 million turkeys are killed in the U.S. every year - 40 million for Thanksgiving dinners alone. In nature, turkeys are protective and nurturing parents, as well as fast runners, who are able to use reason to outwit their pursuers.
Turkeys killed for Butterball are raised in unnatural conditions, crammed by the thousands into windowless warehouses, where disease, smothering and heart attacks are common. These turkeys are drugged and bred to grow so large, so quickly, that their legs are often unable to withstand their own weight. At Butterball's slaughterhouses, turkeys are roughly snapped into moving shackles and have their throats slit by a spinning blade, often while fully conscious.
Turkeys, and other fowl, are excluded from the federal Animal Welfare Act and Humane Methods of Slaughter Act, leading to institutionalized and rampant abuse that would warrant felony cruelty charges if the victims were dogs or cats.
Watch the MFA undercover investigation video to see for yourself what conditions are like for turkeys inside industrial slaughterhouses:

Adverse conditions, like the one-month delay in monsoon and the hailstorm that hit the onion belt of Maharastra in April, are likely to push up the prices of onion to close to Rs100 a kg in a couple of weeks, according to available market indications.
According to data released by the Agriculture Produce Market Committee (APMC) at Vashi, the supply of onions has been steadily going down. In the past, the wholesale market used to receive 80 truckloads a day; but now their number has dropped to 60. Each truck carries 12 tonnes on average. But, not only has the supply come down but the quality of the onion is also bad. At least 20 per cent of the supply is non-usable and is declared as waste during sorting. "Really speaking only 50% is of usable quality which can be stored for more than a week. Thus, the shortage is huge," director of APMC, Ashok Walunje told dna on Monday. The Vashi APMC market is the vegetable and fruit selling hub and is the main source for supply to Mumbai city and suburbs.
According to Walunje there will be a record increase in prices in July and August. "Currently, we are selling onion at the rate of Rs22-27 per kg. Last year, the record was Rs60 per kg in the wholesale market," Walunje said. Given the huge profit margins of the retailers, the price is likely to hover close to the Rs100 per kg mark in the retail markets.
Meanwhile, late in the evening, PM Narendra Modi, aware of the looming prices, asked states to take urgent measures to remove hitches in supply chain and ensure "uninterrupted" flow.
Modi directed consumer affairs secretary Keshav Desiraju to write to chief secretaries of all states to take corrective steps. Soon after, Desiraju wrote to the states saying urgent measures at the state level are required to tackle the situation.
Nanansaheb Patil, chairman of APMC at Lasalgaon, told dna that this year there was a double whammy for onion crops that resulted in a surge in prices. Lasalgaon is the biggest onion-supplying market in Asia. "A few months ago, most of the onion crop was damaged in hailstorm and unseasonal rainfall. And, whatever the crops were harvested by farmers were not of storable quality and were disposed of immediately. Normally, farmers stock summer-time-produce for sale during August. But this time, they were forced to dispose of their stocks early because of the high levels of rotting. Therefore, only 20 per cent super quality of onion has remained in the farmers' godowns," Patil said.
He said another major reason for onion price rise is delay in monsoon. "Entire June has gone without rainfall. So, there is no new onion plantation activity in major onion supplying districts in Nashik. It will have affect onion prices further. Even, suppose the rain starts in first week of July as per the Indian Meteorological Department's predictions, still there will be a gap of 90 days before the crop is harvested. Thus, an upward push in prices is to be expected. This crisis is beyond the control of farmers," Patil added.
Tukaram Patil, potato and onion commission agent in Dhule said if the central and state governments are really serious about easing the prices of onions and other vegetables, then they should directly buy the produce from farmers and sell through retail chains like Apana Bazaars or NGOs. "Otherwise, putting a cap on export and cracking on hoarding is not going to help this time. There is no high production of onion and hence there is no question of anyone hoarding them for better prices," said Patil.

This is a great project to bust your stash of yarn! The rug is super soft and feels great on bare feet. :)
You'll need some plastic rug grid and yarn of course. You can find rug grid at many fabric stores. I was lucky enough to find mine at the thrift store.
Once your poms are made, tie them to the squares on the grid.
You'll need to make quite a few poms! But, it's soooo worth it!
I put non skid on the back.
I haven't figured out how I will keep this clean other than shaking it out. I'm keeping mine on the side of my bed so my bare feet hit it's royal softyness every morning. No dirty shoes for this baby!
so cool thanks! oh i love your allstars! (>^~^<)
i love this but i think i have a stupid question... how do you make the pompoms? lol
your trug is amazing and i love the way you laced up your shoes
This is the coolest idea ever > . <
I'm so making this..
u lace your shoes funny
Great idea!! Whenever I see those lovely, expensive yarns, on clearance I can't resist buying it. Over the past several years, I have bought a lot of yarn, but not a lot of one color/type, so I am always looking for creative & innovative yarn projects that incorporate a variety of colors and yarns.
How adorable and fluffy soft that looks. Great idea! May suggest using Scotch Guard to help keep it clean. You use several thin coats, letting it dry in between. To wash it I would fill your bathtub with enough lukewarm water to cover then some gentle detergent like Woolite and just gently agitate it a little with your hand. Then rinse with cool water and lay flat or hang to dry.
looks sooo fluffy!!!!!!!! i love it!!!!!
thank you!!!

Exactly, lostnumberwar.
You assumed the vast majority have common sense. They don't.
I don't think people realize how very little of what they have or buy on a day to day basis that they think they "own" is not made in the US, but overseas or in Canada/Mexico.
ALL of that would be affected by this.
But, that's the US for you, don't care until it affects them -.- And even then, they usually don't care much.

Every game I've ever played was complete without the DLC.
I'm guessing you've never heard of how Capcom locked some of their games' characters and stages from player use while still having all the necessary coding in the game to make them usable, only adding another code to lock them unless players paid them extra. Or Day 1 DLC that they make just to try and force used purchasers to give them money.

You realize there are parts of the country that were/are actually considering making women who have been violated (that R word) and impregnated keeping said life no matter what. And there was talk about making abortion punishable by death -.-
People do not think about consequences, they just do because, as I said, a lot of the US has that "doesn't affect me, don't care" mentality.
The fact it has gotten up to Supreme Court should have everyone VERY worried about the consequences and implications of the outcome of the case.

We must exhaust every avenue to unearth every clue. We've settled for too long with unsubstantiated truisms and imperfect absolutes. Even a perfect crouton is just stale bread that's been re-baked and served fresh.
I was sitting on my front porch the other day, plucking a six-stringed prayer to the heavens, when a man stopped and asked for directions. He was perhaps new to town and wanted to know the best way to find a church.
I told him there was no best way because a church could be found in any direction. He undoubtedly took that as a sign from God and walked away with a broad and peaceful smile on his face until he stepped in a fresh pile of dog markings left unceremoniously on the neighbor's lawn.
I took that as a sign from God and high-tailed it out of there in search of a metaphorical pic-a-nic basket, hopefully without croutons.

Yet the Chinese government has continued to paint its fight against Uighur groups as part of the international war on terror -- a strategy, many experts say, intended to garner international support for its actions.
Chinese authorities say they have made dozens of arrests of terrorists within its borders this year. According to state-run media, authorities have broken up rallies, executed Uighurs suspected of terrorism, and closed down mosques.
In particular, Chinese authorities have identified a group called the East Turkistan Islamic Movement (ETIM) as the greatest terror threat in China. After two Uighurs killed 16 border police in the western Chinese city of Kashgar this week, authorities there said that the suspects' homemade guns and weapons resembled those seized from an ETIM training camp last year.
But far from resembling al Qaeda, the group is more like the Basque separatist group ETA, which has used terrorist tactics of bombing to wage a war in Spain for their own state, according to U.S. officials. Unlike the Basque group, however, the East Turkistan Islamic Movement has not yet exhibited a substantial ability to conduct bombings or organize insurgency, the officials said.
Another group embracing violence has also appeared in recent months. Known as the Turkistan Islamic Party, the group has released two videos in recent weeks, calling for jihad and threatening an attack during the Olympics. It also claimed responsibility for recent bus bombings in the Chinese cities of Shanghai and Kunming. Chinese authorities have dismissed the group's warnings, and experts say there is no proof the group has carried out any of the attacks that it claimed responsibility for. Some terrorism experts say a continued crackdown could lead Uighurs to more violence.
Rohan Gunaratna, head of the International Center for Political Violence and Terrorism Research (ICPVTR) at Nanyang Technological University in Singapore, wrote in his recent report, "The ETIM Threat to the Beijing Olympics," that ETIM's goals have already changed from nationalist ones to global jihad.
In his report, Gunarata wrote that groups of Uighurs in Pakistan have joined al Qaeda and the Taliban, and constitute a real threat to the Olympic Games and targets outside China: "Today, ETIM follows the philosophy of al Qaeda and respects Osama bin Laden," he wrote. "Such groups that believe in the global jihad agenda do not confine their targets to the territories that they seek to control. ...ETIM presents a threat to Chinese as well as to Western targets."

This is an index to the second book Certificate of Intent to become a citizen of the United States. These are sometimes called First Papers. The years range from 1881 through 1903.This book is located at the Frank Walker Museum in Stockton, KS. Copyright 1999. Darlee Sissel [contact link] Rooks Co.,KS, page 43, listed as Joseph J.

One reason why I opened this thread was to get some detailed input from the more experienced posters so I could perhaps rank some of these players properly, and so far I haven't gotten it.
Well nonp, not sure what to tell you. Tilden had a minimalist motion with a low toss, it was absolutely fluid however, and relaxed. One nice thing about it was that even though so simple, the linkage of his body-parts was perfect...and that is the key to power. Not wild knee bends, or back arches, or huge grunts. Tilden of course, had to leave one foot down, but he did get all his weight behind the serve, and even the best of jumps probably only add about 10mph max. (and I tend to think that generous) to the serve. (and in the case of many amateurs, probably causes a bit of loss from other links, that might even result in a wash!)
Ellsworth Vines, the next big server after Tilden, thought Sampras (89,90ish Sampras....note this his motion did change a bit around 1991 and again, around 1994/5) motion was just like his. He thought the arm motion, body movement etc were the same! From the footage I've seen, it's not, but Tilden sees something, probaby in the looseness of the arms, and the rhythm, as well as their general build!
In any case, I"ve studied all these servers to the best of my ability, but not sure that there is any way to place/rank them with any certainty.
I would say, that their biomechanics, as well as the speed ratings we do have, and the fact that a good wood server can come within a few mph's of what he can do with graphite convinces me that, while they may not have had such an aggressive (ace on every first serve) mindset, they could bring the heat, in a way very comparable to today's players, when they wished. Don't let the hype about improvements in mechanics fool you. It's largely unscientific gibberish. The really important fundamentals haven't changed...they're a function of the human body....and the greatest servers always had them. In fact, if anything, I think efficiency has gone downwards, as we went towards more of a big knee bend, pause, big leap phase, rather the continuous, relaxed motion. The former is more efficient in terms of energy used, though ultimately the outcome is probably almost identical when maximized! Some players, like Vijay Amitraj, thought that players of his era, who tended towards low ball tosses with quicker motions were more deceptive (he compared it to Krajicek in one interview), and of course, Goran, arthurs, Tanner, Curren, and many others have been among the most difficult to read. I recall even Agassi saying Leconte's low ball toss, quick motion was hard to read. But again, I think ultimately a great outcome can be achieved with any of these styles....as the varied greats demonstrate!

Tablet. Hotels for Global Nomads
Travel Better.
Pasaje Alana no.2, Ayllus de Solcor, San Pedro de Atacama, Chile
Check availability as rates may vary for dates. Best rate guaranteed.
The Atacama of northern Chile is one of the most sublimely bleak and stunning landscapes on this planet and possibly others — if they were making a movie about Mars they could do worse than this vast red desert. The inhospitability of the place demands an extra measure of luxury from its lodgings, and it's this contrast, between harsh surroundings and luxe interiors, that makes Atacamadventure so inspiring.
Calling it a hotel is perhaps a stretch; there are just two units here, a two-bedroom and a one-bedroom suite. Capacity is seven at most, so there's a chance of sharing the living room and the communal kitchen (and dedicated cook) with at most a small handful of strangers. Otherwise it's all yours: each unit constitutes its own wing, and comes with its own jacuzzi in its own luxurious bathroom.
Creature comforts are only half the package in an Atacaman eco-lodge — the other half is about unearthly expeditions. From desert plains to high mountains to hot springs, by foot or horseback, the whole Atacama is at your feet. There are day trips tailored to anyone's taste, but for the aspiring adventurer there's an overland trek to Bolivia, a four-day 4×4 campaign that takes in salt flats, hidden lakes and high mountain volcanoes.
How to Get There
Atacamadventure is approximately a 1 hour and 45 minute drive from El Loa International Airport (CJC). Please contact email@example.com to arrange airport transfers.

End of quarters cost Heat in Game 5
More News from Associated Press
SAN ANTONIO — The Miami Heat will be lamenting 8 bad minutes. Eight very bad minutes, actually.
So bad that they took away any realistic chance of winning Game 5 of the NBA Finals on Sunday night. So bad that they put the reigning champions on the brink of elimination. So bad that they ensured the Heat season can only be saved by winning two games in Miami, or else they will face the indignity of watching an opponent celebrate a title on their floor for the second time in three years.
San Antonio closed the first quarter on a 15-2 run, then wrapped up the third with a 12-1 burst. And those flurries generated more than enough cushion than the Spurs would need on the way to a 114-104 win that put them one win away from their fifth championship since 1999.
In those two bursts, the Spurs shot a combined 10 for 12. The Heat, 1 for 11.
More than anything else, those two stretches will be the ones that cause the Heat to cringe when they watch the tape Monday.
"Our focus is … can we put together our best game on both sides of the floor in Game 6?" Heat coach Erik Spoelstra said. "We do feel good that we're going home, but we've got to earn back that home court."
Game 6 is in Miami on Tuesday. Game 7, if necessary, would also be there Thursday.
It was 17-17 with 4:45 left in the first after LeBron James tied it for Miami with a 3-pointer. The score at the end of the first: Spurs 32, Heat 19. And it wasn't just the ending that was bad for Miami. The Heat shot 30 percent in the period, their third-worst performance from the field of the entire season — while the Spurs sizzled away at 63 percent.
Slowly, things moved toward leveling out. And an inspired start to the third by Miami cut what was a nine-point deficit at intermission to just 61-60 in the first 77 seconds of the second half. Then with 3:05 left in the third, a jumper by Dwyane Wade, followed by a free throw by Shane Battier on the same play (he was fouled while setting a screen) got the Heat within one again, 75-74.
That's when the bottom fell out — again.
"Once we got it back to one, we felt that we'd weathered the storm," Spoelstra said. "Then we missed a couple shots that we normally are accustomed to making, and it just snowballed downhill from there."
Danny Green made a 3-pointer to start the San Antonio surge to close the third, and Manu Ginobili scored seven more points before the end of the period to help push the Spurs' margin to 12 at 87-75 entering the fourth.
By then, the Spurs had more than enough space to weather Miami's last rally. The Heat cut it to 109-101 with just inside of 2 minutes to go, which surely made getting outscored by 24 combined points to end the first and third quarters hurt that much more.
And now, Miami's task is simple. Win Tuesday, then win Thursday — or else.
"Got no choice, now," Heat guard Mike Miller said.

Gadget Review: Swann Surveillance Flashlight DVR
If you routinely poke around dark areas and need to take pictures of what you see (such as a home inspector peeking underneath a house), you could use a camera and carry a flashlight. However, carrying two items can be clumsy, so as a simpler alternative, you could carry Swann Surveillance's unique flashlight that combines a digital camera with a video camcorder.
The flashlight requires three C batteries and weights 520 grams (without the weight of the batteries). It's rather large for a flashlight with dimensions of 3.11 inches at its widest point, which is its front, 3.85 inches high, and 12.83 inches long. The head of the flashlight contains the bulb and the built-in camera and microphone. If you're used to ordinary household flashlights, this unit will seem monstrous in comparison. However, if you're used to typical police style flashlights, this item simply sports a larger head for its lens.
There are three levels of illumination that you can choose. Just turn on the flashlight, aim it, and now you have the option of taking still pictures or video. If you choose video, you can capture audio as well. The camera captures images at 640 by 480 resolution, which is acceptable but definitely grainier than typical digital cameras or video camcorders.
The flashlight captures video in MPEG-4 format at 30 frames per second (fps) and can a maximum of 18 minutes stored on its built-in 128Mb memory. If you plug in an optional SD card, you can store up to 1.5 hours of video on a 1Gb SD card.
After capturing pictures, video, or audio, you can download the data to your computer through an included USB cable, which plugs into any USB 1.1 port.
Despite the limited camera resolution, this flashlight can be especially handy for taking pictures wherever you can point the flashlight, such as inside a car engine or in an attic. For security purposes, the flashlight can help you record events without another person's knowledge.
Since the camera and microphone are hidden in the flashlight's lens, you could point the flashlight at anyone and record video and audio without their knowledge, which could be handy for storing crucial visual and audio evidence. The built-in microphone captures adequate sound, but don't expect crystal clear fidelity. Overall, the built-in microphone and cameras are sufficient for typical uses for this flashlight.
The Swann Surveillance Flashlight DVR may be a bit expensive for ordinary use. However, if you need a hidden camera and microphone tucked inside what appears to be an ordinary flashlight, this product is truly one of a kind.

This product is rubbish. It is of poor quality and poor control. Also, it will run out of battery very soon.
The company does not sell too much of it and even sold, almost 100% returned to the factory.
If I were you, never buy it.
Capturing pictures, video, or audio are the good facilities about this flash light offers for us.
