Simple, tasty, relatively healthy, and super easy. I make this about once a week with various berries.
Easy & very good. Used wild blueberries, & 3/4 cup brown sugar. Almonds are a great touch.
Easy and delicious! Followed the recipe (plus added some raspberries) and found it came out a bit too sweet, so I'll cut back on the brown sugar the next time.
I used tart cherries and apples with amareto and cornstarch to bind it together. I also doubled the topping. Quick, easy and delicious.
It was a likable dessert. Good for everyday, but I wouldn't serve it for company as it was not so special. It goes well with ice cream to add enough sweetness to the fruit.
This is an easy, fast delicious recipe!!! Exactly what you're looking for.
Easy, fast and delicious! Great way to use blueberries or any other berries. Ditto on doubling crunch topping. Lots of room to play and adapt to your specific taste.
God, talk about simple and delicious! I kinda followed the recipe as far as I could; I only had a pint of blueberries so I lined individual cups in a muffin pan with some Reynold's wrap, spooned in the prepared berries and sprinkled the topping on. It came out in perfect serving sizes for my three year old and he loved it with vanilla yogurt. I will definitely be making this recipe again since it was so easy and so versatile. Things I added: A little orange zest and juice to the berries and chopped, roasted pecans to the topping.
Not bad at all... maybe a tad too sweet for my taste but I will know to decrease the sugar next time. It gets extra points for being a super-easy dessert - whipped it up in minutes.
This was fantastic -- I did double the topping as well. Since so many reviewers noted scarfing hungry husbands, let me add I live in a collective of lesbian Marxists and we all loved this communally as well. It's a keeper!

A day full of fun and music is promised for revelers at the second Kingsdown Rocks festival with headlining act X-Factor finalist Ben Mills.
The festival, on Saturday, August 2, will be held in the field at Kingsdown and Ringwould Primary School.
The afternoon starts with family fun including pony rides, a bouncy castle, hair braiding, face painting, balloon modelling and a children's disco.
And the music promises to be an attraction in itself with X-Factor's Ben Mills as well as Surrey's leading Afro/soul band Jam Side Up.
Gemma Green is on the organising committee. She said: "During the late afternoon and evening the great schedule rocks on with mixed live sets from soloists One love, Jack Wilby, Sarah Banks and the outstanding Elvis tribute-Darren Price."
She added: "The night continues with sets by top Kent bands including the seven-piece Caution Horses and As Is Now."
A Real Ale Tent will sell a selection of Kentish ales, there will be a barbecue and a traditional tea tent with homemade cakes and snacks.
The gates open at noon with the family events and the music continues until 11pm.
Despite the rise in the costs of staging this years event the entry has stayed low at just £7 for the day (£3 for children aged four and over).
All proceeds will go to school funds and local causes.

Excellent as usual. Is that a "The Yellow Wallpaper" reference?
Actually, it's a double reference, to Charlotte Perkins Gilman's 1892 masterpiece, The Yellow Wallpaper, and to Gaston LeRoux's 1908 locked-room mystery, The Mystery of the Yellow Room. Good eye! And well-read, too.
I'm extremely interested in how Reba's accent and grammar changes as soon as she's out of ear-shot of her employers … from "you knows we kin, chile" to "hurry, child, we haven't much time." *raises eyebrow* Fascinating … And apparently Reba is there in an attempt to thwart whatever Larch & Co. are up to. This will be GREAT …
Of course … now I have to wait along with everyone else to see what happens *gnaws on knuckle* Of course I'll be checking back so as to vote, which means at least I will be able to check comments. Exciting!!
Welcome back! I've missed the comic! Glad to have it back in my weekly read!
Uh oh, something's happening there, and I don't think it's right. I got the "Yellow Wallpaper" reference, I'll have to read up on the "Mystery of the Yellow Room"
Ha! I thought of the Charlotte Perkins Gilman story too, as soon as I saw that panel of wallpaper peeled down almost to the floor. Didn't get the LeRoux, though. Nice!
Ha! i think i found something! Wenn you read 'Reba' from left to ride, it is the german word 'aber'. The translation for this is 'but' . and her actions showed, that she up to bust the 'party' ^^ sorry for my bad english -_-'
A friend just turned me on to this and I read from start to current in one sitting! Loving this comic!!
I love "The Yellow Wallpaper"!
Little references like that make me smile. Thanks much for including it!
Oh son of a biscuit… they were going to do something horrible to her, weren't they?
Uh, Lissy, I hate to be the one to break it to you, but…it's not over yet.
Just getting into lovecraft (found yer site in the book "Cthulhu 101″). Like SLUgamer I've just read from the start in 1 hit. Great work, looking forward to more.
oh-oh! I don't like the sound of this at all–I hope Reba is successful!
Lazza – just voted again and I'm dis-GUSTED!
You're ONLY 73!
…well, you can't help your age…
But I re-FUSE to be-LIEVE there's 72 – SEVENTY-two? – online comics out there better than yours!
It's a bleedin' OUTRAGE!
…anyway, I'm now go'n'o put me straitjacket back on and return to me padded cell.

Why is it that royals called Charles have such a talent for winding up their lordships? Lord Rogers, the architect responsible for the Chelsea Barracks development, is furious that – by having the audacity to criticise his work – the Prince of Wales has set Britain on course for a full-blown constitutional crisis. But, as any nanotechnologist or GM food producer could tell you, there's no constitutional precedent to stop the heir to the throne from speaking his mind on issues outside politics. And with reform of the upper house on the cards again, we suspect it might be the unelected Lord Rogers' whose constitutional role is really under threat right now.

Arizona Secretary Bennett to testify before Congress
PHOENIX -- Arizona Secretary of State Ken Bennett has accepted an invitation to testify before the U.S. Senate Judiciary Committee on Wednesday in Washington D.C.
The hearing is titled "The State of the Right to Vote After the 2012 Election."
Bennett will join former Florida Gov. Charlie Crist, Iowa Secretary of State Matt Schultz, South Carolina State Representative Gilda Cobb-Hunter and Nina Perales of the Mexican American Legal Defense and Educational Fund.
Bennett said he's looking forward to offering insights on the election cycle and "shed some light on Arizona's system of elections."

The representative of Electoral District #2, Montserrado County, Sekou S. Kanneh, has described as the "beginning of failure" the alleged exclusion of Muslims from the reconciliation team set up recently.
Newly appointed National Reconciliation Commission (NRC) chairperson, opposition politician George M. Weah, last week, named 11 prominent persons to assist in the implementation of the objectives of the commission.
Mr. Weah, amidst controversy mainly among his followers, replaced 2011 co-Nobel Peace laureate, Leymah Gbowee, who abandoned the post alleging impropriety in government and lack of support to the commission.
According to the Montserrado lawmaker, no amount of efforts exerted can achieve total peace and reconciliation if one segment of the society is deliberately left out of the reconciliation process.
"You cannot say you want to reconcile the nation if you deliberately leave a segment, especially an important portion of the society, out of the process," he said.
He believes that not including Muslims on the Secretariat of the Reconciliation Committee represents a significant and inevitable beginning of failure considering the country's history over the decades.
The Analyst was unable to contact the NRC chair for comment. However, observers say the nation will succeed in its reconciliation drive only if it avoids demands for sectarian entitlements such as that which the lawmaker is demanding.
"The war in Liberia was not about religion; public officials should therefore not seek to search for peace and reconciliation through sectarian, political, communal, religious, or whatever representation," said one observer who spoke with this paper over the weekend.
He said it is insistence on sectarian entitlement that is the false start, not the exclusion of certain religious interests.
After all, he contended, if Weah's team comprises Christians, Buddhists, animists, or atheists, one things that is sure is that he did not appoint them as representatives of these religious group. "If that is the case, which denomination of the many competing sects represents the Christians?" he asked rhetorically.
Meanwhile, analysts say as initial step, NRC needs to organize national debate on whether the search for peace in Liberia requires consideration for sectarian entitlement in order to put to rest the expectation of sectarian advocates like Rep. Kanneh.
"Kenneh is not alone; he presents a silent majority of community, opinion, political, and tribal leaders who seek to maintain their relevance in claiming disadvantage and exclusion. If he succeeds, we will have tribal and other advocates coming out to make their claims for inclusion. Can NRC afford a reconciliation secretariat that comprises representatives of the 16 tribes, 22 political parties, 50 or so civil society organizations, and representatives of the media, youth groups, and hundreds of religious groupings, if entitlement becomes a criterion for balance?" they wonder.

Google shareholders vote down proposal on censorship

Pension fund nudges Google, Yahoo on censorship
December 14, 2006
Google "must make special efforts to avoid being seen as complicit in human rights abuses...and not be proactive in censorship," said Patrick Doherty, a representative of the New York City Pension Fund, which submitted the resolution. When it created its Web search site for China, Google said it would remove results from its www.google.cn Web site that would likely offend the Chinese government. Yahoo shareholders face several similar resolutions at their annual meeting.
Before the shareholder vote, Google chief legal counsel David Drummond said the board opposed the measure because it would do more harm than good.
"We appreciate the spirit of this proposal, he said. "However we oppose the proposal because we don't think that at the end of the day it advances the causes of free expression and access to information...Pulling out of China, shutting down google.cn is, to us, not the right thing to do at this point and is not the answer to the Internet censorship problem."
In a meeting with reporters before the shareholder meeting, Google Chief Executive Eric Schmidt defended the company's practices.
"Without in any way defending their laws and policies, the censored or omitted data comprises less than 1 percent of the answers...the index is better, more relevant," he said. "We believe that as a result, the Chinese citizen has more information and more choices than they would had we not been in the country."
Schmidt serves as a member of the board at Apple, whose shareholder meeting was earlier in the day and where stock options backdating was a main topic of discussion.
Meanwhile, Schmidt gave an indication of how the company is transitioning from being a search and advertising company to being a provider of Web applications for things like e-mail, calendar and productivity applications like documents, spreadsheets and presentation software.
"We're going to start using the phrase 'search, ads and apps' to define what we're trying to do," he said. "There is a big opportunity before us which is to move to a new architectural platform...based on the data in the cloud."
Google is seen as targeting Microsoft's core desktop business by offering free versions of software online that Microsoft sells for use on desktops. Google has denied that charge. Regardless, its moves have prompted Microsoft to boost its Web services but the efforts have not paid off.
'Criticism is healthy'
During a question-and-answer session, a shareholder asked what Google's response would be to the criticism that it is becoming the next Microsoft in the sense of being perceived as a disliked dominant player in the industry. "We make decisions based on our users," said Schmidt. "We have made a commitment to not trap user data."
The topic was broached during the meeting with reporters, with Schmidt saying he had been surprised at the virulence of some of the criticism over the years of Google. "I think in our position we are going to be criticized and that criticism is healthy...I think it makes us stronger," he said. It's part of where we are. I've been in other spots and I'll take this spot."
Google co-founder Larry Page said the company's practices, such as its use of open-source software that can be freely modified and used as opposed to proprietary software such as that from Microsoft, was a testament to its integrity.
As Google gets bigger and more successful "it's natural for people to think those things," he said. "We encourage people to give high revenue share to our partners when we're running our ads on other peoples' sites...I'm pretty comfortable about it having come from a kind of academic background and really grown up on open source. I think we can do a lot to improve the state of the world in very positive ways."
Schmidt said that his biggest worry is scaling the business and growing without losing the benefits of having a consensus-driven, "creative, collaborative culture." He listed mobile and local search as the areas for the biggest growth opportunity from a product standpoint.
With regard to the proposal to purchase online ad company DoubleClick for $3.1 billion, the company filed its application for regulatory approval with the U.S. government last week and should hear back within three weeks, giving it an idea of how long it will take to finalize the deal, said Google general counsel Kent Walker. The company had not yet filed any paperwork on the deal in Europe, he said.
Meanwhile, Google is testing a set of tools it calls "Claim Your Content" with a few content providers that is designed to automate the process of discovering and seeking a takedown of copyright-protected content that has been uploaded to YouTube, Schmidt said. "That is ultimately the answer to the complaints," he said. "We're also trialing various advertising formats and monetization models." The company has been sued by Viacom over clips of its programming that people post to the site.
"We are their best hope to monetize that content online," said Page. "We are the logical partner to enable monetization and distribution."
Sergey Brin, who co-founded the company with Page while they were graduate students at Stanford, was out of town and did not attend the meeting with reporters or the shareholder meeting.
Asked about how the roles of the troika have evolved over the years, Schmidt said: "We're the same three clowns, let me tell you," he said. "In the division of labor, Sergey is still focused on deals and cultural aspects...Larry is interested in the physical plant, the building strategies."
Looking forward, Schmidt predicted that "someone will found the next Google. These things have cycles...There's always another set of young entrepreneurs. Maybe they will be at Berkeley, right Larry?"
"I doubt it," Page said.

Google releases 'Glass' user interface video - How you can get a pair
Google has released a video from the point of view of people wearing their glasses. "Project Glass" is a device that you wear, like glasses, that is connected to the internet. They are voice-activated, allowing the user to search the web, find directions, take photos, record videos, and more.
The "glass" is in the upper right corner of your right eye, and works as a small screen that displays information. They seem to bridge the offline and online world, creating a constant connection to the web.
In the past, Google had supplied the glasses to a number of developers, but the company is now opening up the testing process, allowing people to apply for a pair. However, in reading the fine print, those selected to be part of the testing program have to purchase the glasses, which have a price tag of $1,500 a pair. A selected user must also personally pick them up from New York, San Francisco, or Los Angeles.
That's a lot of work to ask your glasses for directions to the grocery store.

Cloakroom Suites: Buy Leading Brands OnlineA cloakroom suite differs from a bathroom suite because it does not include a bath. We provide a number of different complete cloakroom suites, from some of the industry-leading manufacturers, which includes a basin, pedestal, toilet pan, toilet cistern and seat all in one simple package to make ordering as quick and easy as possible.
Cloakroom Suites: Common MisconceptionsA cloakroom suite is so called because it includes a toilet and a basin - and so it includes the 2 items found in a traditional cloakroom. It does not mean that these products are any different to those in a bathroom, it's simply a bathroom suite without a bath. There are a number of space-saving cloakroom suites where the projection of the items is less than normal - this is documented in the titles of the products where applicable. The most common layout for a cloakroom suite would include a close coupled toilet pan, cistern and seat, along with a basin and full pedestal.
Space Saving Cloakroom SuitesIf you are considering purchasing a chinaware pack for your cloakroom or small bathroom, you will want to consider a space-saving cloakroom suite. The main difference between a space-savinge suite and a normal cloakroom suite is the short projection of the pan and basin, allowing it to fit in a tighter space. For the most cramped rooms, try a corner cloakroom suite where the basin and cistern is shaped at 90 degrees.
Why Our Cloakroom Suites are BespokeManufacturers bring out collections of products, but all pieces are usually sold separately. To help our customers out, we have compiled packs of the 5 pieces you will need for your cloakroom - what you see in the picture is what you will receive. You may notice that the product codes are not comparable with other codes - this is because we have created them ourselves. There are not many other retailers who go to this trouble - but it eliminates the problem of someone ordering the wrong cistern or pedestal.
Cloakroom Suite DeliveriesIf you are in the mainland UK, you can expect to receive most cloakroom suites within a week. We can usually order direct from the manufacturer, meaning there are no middle men trying to take a cut. That is why we pass the savings on to you, as well as offering free delivery - a business model that not many are able to mirror. Because of the nature of the items, cloakroom suites are delivered on a pallet via a courier company - it keeps the breakage rate down. This does mean that any outlying islands are likely to incur a sizeable delivery charge - please contact us for more details!

What Romney REALLY Thinks of Elders
You must have heard about all this by now – Republican presidential candidate Mitt Romney's remarkably candid statements about his disdain for half the U.S. population:
On Monday, David Corn writing in Mother Jones released several clips from a recording of an hour-long, private fundraiser Romney held with a some fat-cat Florida donors in May. More clips followed on Tuesday, but that first video above is the most devastating – both for the country and (I do hope) for Romney too.
Here is a partial transcript of the clip:
"There are 47 percent of the people who will vote for the president no matter what. There are 47 percent who are with him, who are dependent upon government, who believe that they are victims, who believe the government has a responsibility to care for them, who believe that they are entitled to health care, to food, to housing, to you-name-it, that that's an entitlement. And the government should give it to them...
"These are people who pay no income tax...[M]y job is not to worry about those people. I'll never convince them they should take personal responsibility and care for their lives."
What is shocking about Romney's comments is that they are not shocking. I suspect that everyone in the U.S. who is not a member of the rabid, far-right variety of Republican already knew this about him – that he disdains and scorns everyone who is not rich. We just didn't expect him to say it out loud so clearly.
Nevertheless, more elders support Mitt Romney's candidacy than any other single demographic. In the latest American Research Group poll, voters 50 and older prefer Romney to President Obama 52 percent to 43 percent.
Can that possibly continue after this contemptible and repugnant video? Romney's loathing for anyone he sees as below his station in life is disgustingly obvious not to mention – if I may steal a Republican trope – unAmerican.
Aside from that, Romney's numbers reveal that he has zero knowledge of the culture and circumstances of Americans who are not wealthy. Here is a tax graph of the U.S. population from the Tax Policy Center:
28.3 percent of taxpayers have enough deductions to zero out their federal tax obligation. But they still pay FICA and Medicare deductions which Romney, without a salary, does not.
6.0 percent earn too little - $20,000 or less - to pay income tax or payroll taxes.
That leaves the 10.3 percent of the U.S. population labeled "elderly" - the ones Time Goes By is concerned with – who pay no income tax nor payroll deductions but certainly have paid their share over a lifetime of employment.
As the Center for Policy and Budget Priorities explains:
"Most of the people who pay neither federal income tax nor payroll taxes are low-income people who are elderly, unable to work due to a serious disability, or students, most of whom subsequently become taxpayers.
"(In years like the last few, this group also includes a significant number of people who have been unemployed the entire year and cannot find work.)"
However, all the employed groups who pay no federal income tax usually pay state and local taxes and everyone, no matter how poor, pays sales tax. No one in these groups is shirking tax obligations.
Oh, wait. There is one group who is shirking. New York magazine enlightens us:
"...the most egregious members of the 47 percent are the 3,000 people who made more than $2,178,866 in 2011 (putting them in the top 0.1 percent of taxpayers), and yet paid no federal income taxes."
Do you suppose Mr. Romney's contempt for people he thinks are freeloaders includes these 3,000? The ones who likely stash their cash in the Cayman Islands and other tax havens? Like Romney himself?
Now that I've done all this explanation of who doesn't pay taxes, I feel a little foolish because Romney's speech in Florida was not about facts and figures. It was the most elite put-down of the riff-raff since Marie Antoinette.
In practical terms, what it tells us is that the Republicans are running for president an amoral man of contemptible character who, if elected, will do everything he can to throw elders under the financial bus along with the rest of the 47 percent.
Are you ready for the work house?
Like I said above, I hope this Romney speech will waken his elder supporters to switch sides in disgust at his condescension toward them. But, probably not. Here is what infuriates me about my own age cohort – from a comment at firedoglake:
"My Mom is one. A 75 year old widow whose singular reason for voting for Romney is to get rid of Obamacare to save her medicare. That's the simple truth and you will not change her mind. The mind control by Fox News is stunning."
I have no doubt that is true and that millions of elders are equally uninformed, ignorant and closed-minded and that scares the bejesus out of me for the entire 99 percent of every age if Romney is elected.
At The Elder Storytelling Place today, Johna Ferguson: What is Age?
Posted by Ronni Bennett at 05:30 AM | Permalink | Email this post
I'm so proud to say, as a liberal Georgian, that Jimmy Carter's currently unemployed grandson, James Earl Carter IV, was the person who unearthed the video and sent it to David Corn, whom he'd just met at the Democratic Convention. This proves that, if there is a God, she's a Democrat and she has a sense of humor.
You play such an important role in keeping the facts in front of us so we can make good decisions. May it be so!
Romney has said that corporations are people. Does he have the same opinion of the corporations who do not pay federal taxes?
Toastmasters! That might help.
Last week's issue of Time had a terrific article about how the government subsidizes ALL of us.
Yes, there are plenty of freeloaders out there, but I'm quite sure it includes its share of the 1%.
BTW, if he can't articulate his ideas better than that, how can I trust him to deal with issues that affect this country and world?
Well stated, Ronni. Romney is a politician and he was speaking at a fund raiser. He was 'talking to his audience' and saying what they wanted to hear. I'm sure President Obama has done the same thing – but hasn't been caught.
Remember all the promises that President Obama made during his first campaign. He didn't keep many of those either. Politicians say what they think will help them get elected – whether they believe it or not, whether they can do it or not.
I'm not defending Romney. He took a raw statistic and twisted it to make himself look like the underdog (which, I think, he is) in order to get more money for his campaign. The 43% statistic not only includes the elderly (Social Security) but also millions of people who don't want to be there. People who are desperate for jobs, if they only existed!
Both the Republican and Democratic nominees have been bought and paid for by Big Business (financial, medical, etc.). I hope no one is naïve enough to think differently. All they're arguing about is the details. Each special interest group (and advocates for the elderly is a special interest group) will see nuances that make one candidate more palatable than the other.
Romney has been backpedaling like crazy since this video was released. His explanations are no more acceptable or satisfying to me than most things he has to say. Many sources have tended to be dimissive of the import of what Romney says on the clip, saying that this is what politicians do, play to their audiences. In that case, that is what is despicable about most politicians and is destroying "freedom and justice for all". If they do not have the moral fortitude, strength of character and backbone to stand before any audience and speak their truth, then how can they possibly lead with courage and honor? If Romney was speaking his truth, which I believe he was, then he is clearly not the person to lead the United States of America, because he is divisive and lacks compassion.
A local columnist pointed out today that the 47% who don't pay taxes includes many corporations. Our local example is Boeing, which hasn't paid taxes in four years, despite billions in profits. Yet, I doubt Romney would accuse them of being freeloaders.
I am putting in as many hours as I can working for Obama. The message coming from Mittens and his buddies is that those of us in the 99% are not worthy of things like food and healthcare -- we are here to cater to their needs. @Lauren -- the number of freeloaders is probably lower than you think. Getting assistance isn't just a case saying "I need help" -- it's hard work.
It's also humiliating and degrading.
What surprises me is that the race is still so close. That says something about us, but I'm not sure what.
I think he will be annihilated in the first debate. A lot will depend on the moderator.
We should also be concerned what Willard really thinks of Muslims. He reminds me of Barney Fife and Earl Butz.
Last night President Obama appeared on the Dave Letterman Show and this is just one of the many wonderful and interesting things that he said.
"When I won in 2008,47% of the American people voted for John McCain. They did not vote for me, and what I said on Election Night was..
Even though you didn't vote for me,I hear your voices, and I am going to work as hard as I can to be your President."
It is with some trepidation that I submit this comment. I preface making it by saying that I am trying to maintain an open mind between the candidates for a number of reasons.
My comment is this;. When I saw the video taken of Romney referring to the high percent of people receiving aide andnot paying tax. I assumed that he was saying his pre-election time is limited. Those who find the current government policies advantageous to them personally will not change their minds. In order to support them to become less dependent on government support, he feels he is using his time appropriately by going to those with capital with plans that
will encourage them to expand current businesses and develop new businesses to get the economy rolling again.
He had since realized how others have misinterpreted what he said--not that he was ignoring this group, but could not change their views at this time.
I thought the final quote in your well-written piece sums up what he is up against.
Dare I mention books by Ayn Rand describing what happens when government and society cannot achieve an equitable balance?
Even if I weren't already in the 47%, I could never vote for a man so arrogant and stupid.
In the years I've been reading this blog, unusual to see comments popping up recently here of the "you people are all wrong" variety. Why do they bother--an Ayn Rand mention, for goodness sake, surprised it did not include a link.
Good news is that desperation must be leading right-wingers to try selling their miserable, pinched ideas to those of us at the other end of the rationality scale.
If people want to do themselves in by who they elect into office then that's what they'll do. Like you Ronnie, I've tried to present facts and stay objective, but even my parents want to vote against their own best interest and get rid of President Obama. People are going to believe what they believe and I just have to except that. I don't think we have to worry about the President being one term. If Gov. Romney continues on his course we'll see Obama get a second term. Just give the man enough rope.....and well you all know the rest.
@Naomi. While Ronni has correctly banned bigoted hate-filled words, I don't recall a requirement to pass a political litmus test before commenting here. I welcome well-considered, respectfully submitted views, including those different from my own. I might learn something I had not considered. And conversely, someone might learn something from me or from the hundreds(?) of other commenters.
I still have to wonder why the Rep. candidate will not release his tax records? I'm finding it increasingly difficult to give him the benefit of the doubt that he's been paying his fair share of taxes. I would think if he has nothing to hide he would welcome the opportunity to assure all Americans of just how dedicated he is to what he espouses.
Perhaps this nation's financial status would be greatly improved if all those corporations and individuals who dedicate themselves to figuring out how to avoid paying taxes, would actually pay a bit more.
brbrsin2, you are very kind. Its too bad that you are not writing and rewriting for Romney. When he explained what he was really saying, I didn't hear any explaination near your interpretation of the original statements. I wish I could believe that Romney would be as kind as you.
This morning a Viet Nam Vet family member forwarded a link to a HuffPo article about the Veterans who would be included in Mr. Romney's 47%. The vets to whom he forwarded the item are all well over 60-years-old.
The general response? "Oh, Mr. Romney didn't mean veterans...he meant OTHER people."
The danger of generalizing bites another butt. A presidential candidate should know better.

1,4,7-Triazacyclononane, known as "TACN" which is pronounced "tack-en," is a cyclic organic compound with the formula C6H12(NH)3. TACN is derived, formally speaking, from cyclononane by replacing three equidistant CH2 groups with NH groups. TACN is one of the oligomers derived from aziridine, C2H4NH. Other members of the series include diazacyclohexane, C4H8(NH)2, and the cyclic tetramer 1,4,7,10-tetraazacyclododecane.

Hammed Shittu writes on the effort by the wife of Kwara State Governor Mrs Omolewa Ahmed to revive the dying culture among the young one through competitions and forms of rewards.
To the people of Kwara state, it is yet another giant stride at complementing the ongoing efforts of the present administration in its education reforms. The intent is to ensure that the literacy level of the people, especially among the school children improves.
It is on this premise that, a non-governmental organization, LEAH Charity Foundation, a pet project of the wife of the state governor, Mrs. Omolewa Ahmed was established upon assumption of office of the present administration in the state so as to touch lives of the less privileged people in the society and also to ensure a new lease of life for many others through various kinds of assistance.
However, LEAH's horizon was further broadened upon its collaboration with other stakeholders with more opportunities which has provided it with more opportunities to add values to the lives of the people in what was termed the SHE-Model; an acronym for social welfare, health and education, a multi dimensional action plan geared towards uplifting the socio-well being of the populace of the state and Nigeria in general.
In line with its passion in education, Leah Charity Foundation decided to put in place a reading culture initiative aimed at improving the educational development of young people in Kwara State. The foundation recently organized a reading culture competition among the schools in the 16 local government councils so as to encourage them to be more versatile in English and also improve their reading ability for the socio economic growth of the state.
The decision to take this initiative was not far -fetched as the children constitute a sizeable proportion of the nation's population hence the need to pay adequate attention to their problems and needs, especially if societal vices such as juvenile delinquency, cultism, prostitution, drug abuse, cyber crimes, truancy among others are to be eliminated from the society through reading culture among the school pupils.
It would be noted that, the four skills of English language are reading, speaking, listening and writing. Reading is a critical in the lives of the learners and students must learn to read well in order to make headway in their academic pursuits.
It was this aforementioned issues that gingered the LEAH Charity Foundation to design the initiative of reading culture tagged "LEAH Reading Club 2012", aimed at encouraging schools pupils to imbibe the habit of reading among themselves in order to enhance their academic excellence and thus assisting them to achieve their goals in their various chosen academic career in life.
The event which took place at the Sapati International school, Ilorin was also attended by over 200 students in 64 secondary schools in the state. The students would be competing among themselves on reading habit and those that excel will be given awards and other laurels so as to motivate them for future participation in such event.
Declaring the five-day event open in Ilorin, the state Deputy Governor, Elder Peter Kishra fingered dwindling reading culture as one of the factors responsible for rampant cases of examination malpractices in Nigeria.
Kishra said, "this is why the ugly menace called examination malpractice is still with us today. It can only be tackled when students imbibe the culture of reading." The deputy governor who was represented by the Commissioner for Education and Human Capital Development, Alhaji Saka Onimago explained that the effort was in tandem with the state government's reform agenda.
"Today, we are here to take another giant stride in our educational development by establishing clubs in all junior secondary schools in the state. About 202 students are here gathered to participate in the programme as reading ambassadors of their colleagues in all the sixteen local government areas of the state.
This is to revive reading culture in our schools. It is a great challenge to all of us as stakeholders in education to ensure the success of what is starting from here. It must be sustained so that this great work will not be in vain."
In a remark, the Founding Trustee of the Leah Charity Foundation and wife of Governor AbdulFatah Ahmed, Omolewa said the schools were selected after a thorough and competitive process.
She said that the "participating schools will become the first set of ambassadors for the foundation's determination to ensure that reading becomes an important part of the school live of our children. The process for the event started few months ago when the foundation embarked on the mission of selecting the first crop of schools to participate in this camp. It is our plan that these schools will ultimately become the pioneering schools with the Leah Reading Club which we intend to set up.
"During this one week exercise, participants are going to be exposed to the importance of reading and the skills that are necessary for reading. The reading clinic, which they will participate in, will focus on imparting basic reading skills, how to read and understand as well as the importance of reading as a life-long skill on the children. The children will also be mentored by carefully selected people who have good stories to tell about how reading has impacted on their lives.
"Although, Leah really desired to start this camp with more schools than we have today, the non-governmental organisation is constrained by resources, hence this modest take-off, which we hopefully will be building on in the very near future.
"To achieve this, we would like to appeal to the state government, corporate organisations and public spirited citizens of our dear state to kindly come forward to collaborate with us in our desire to prepare our children for the challenges of the constant change which our world grapples with.
"I charge each of the participants to invest the whole of their beings into this training. You must realise that the opportunity, which you are lucky to have is the same that hundreds of other children wanted but did not get."
By and large, with this event organised by the wife of the state governor, Mrs. Omolewa Ahmed, if it can be sustained, there would be a greater improvement in the academic development and thus prepare school students for a better tomorrow.

Facebook users warned vs 11-year-old virus hoax
Users of Facebook were warned Friday against an 11-year-old virus hoax that has been resurrected and is now making the rounds of the social networking site.
In a blog post, security vendor GFI Labs said the old "Windows Live Virus" urged recipients to circulate the "Red Alert for Your Computer" to their friends.
"Don't panic. Raise a skeptical eyebrow. It's okay," it said.
GFI said the "Windows Live Virus" hoax is the latest variant of similar "deceptive notices" dating back to as early as 2001.
Such a hoax had already been debunked in site such as Snopes.com, it noted.
"As responsible users of social networking and media sites, it is important that we do some fact checks first before we share news, announcements and warnings to those reading our feed," it said.
The so-called "Red Alert" advises recipients not to open any message with an attachment called Archive (Windows live), saying it is a virus that burns the entire hard disk.
It also warned users against a supposed message "UPDATING WINDOWS LIVE."
GFI said following the message's instruction to "Please circulate this notice to your friends, family and contacts!" is "probably the worst thing you could do in this case."
"This hoax may spread needlessly within Facebook (and beyond) and cause unnecessary panic to those who deem it as real," it warned. — TJD, GMA News

Freedom of information requests have revealed that pregnant women may not have been given all the facts before taking an experimental treatment to prevent female fetuses from being masculinised as a result of a rare genetic disorder.
Research has provided some evidence that dexamethasone, a drug normally prescribed to relieve inflammation, can prevent girls with a rare hormonal disease from developing male genitalia and same-sex attraction if they are treated as fetuses. But as yet, no clinical studies show that this treatment is safe, says Alice Dreger of Northwestern University in Evanston, Illinois. She claims that researchers have misled an unknown number of pregnant women into taking the experimental treatment without properly informing them of its risks.
Since the 1980s, Maria New of Mount Sinai School of Medicine in New York has studied and popularised the idea of prescribing dexamethasone "off-label" to women at risk of having foetuses with congenital adrenal hyperplasia (CAH). The treatment is now taught as standard practice in medical schools. But because the drug must be given very early in pregnancy before the fetus' gender or CAH status is known, many fetuses are treated unnecessarily. A child with two carrier parents has a one-in-four chance of having the disease, and the treatment only works for girls.
There is little research available on the effects of dexamethasone, which mimics a steroid hormone. And because dexamethasone doesn't cure CAH but only prevents masculinisation of girls, it can be difficult to distinguish possible effects of the drug from other treatments the children receive after birth.
Developmental problems
However, some evidence suggests that the drug may be harmful to foetuses early in development. A recent study of 43 children in Sweden who did not have CAH but had been treated with dexamethasone as fetuses found that 20 per cent of them had some sort of developmental problem. (Journal of Clinical Endocrinology and Metabolism, DOI: 10.1210/jc.2012-1222).
Through freedom of information requests to Mount Sinai School of Medicine, Dreger and colleagues documented what they see as attempts by New's group to circumvent proper patient consent procedures for experimental use of the drug.
The researchers allege that, according to New's grant applications, she skipped important steps in patient consent, promoting treatment as "safe and effective" without informing parents that the claim is controversial. Years later, New's group then followed up a fraction of the patients to ask about side effects.
Because New doesn't have a financial stake in a drug company, the US Food and Drug Administration says that she is free to promote the treatment as safe and effective.
New declined to be interviewed, but in a statement from Mount Sinai, spokesperson Ian Michaels said the claims are "unfounded" because New's practices have previously been cleared by federal agencies and that the FDA has waived the need for dexamethasone to be approved as an "investigational new drug".

Apple had snafus under Steve Jobs—antenna-gate, MobileMe, the frequently obtuse Siri. Its latest snafu, a faulty maps application installed on the new version of the iPhone, isn't a testament to the inferiority of Apple's current management. The snafu will be easily rectified by, if nothing else, Google releasing and Apple approving a version of the Google Maps app for the iPhone 5.
For entirely different reasons, though, the map mess demonstrates why circumstances are turning against Apple's current business model. Simply, content is king again. However much it might benefit Apple's business model to force users to patronize its own maps app, the company won't get far in trying to deny them Google's far superior app. Apple for a while managed to tame the power of content and make it subservient, but that day is coming to an end.
TV Will Be Apple's Undoing
