Shake Shack Coming to Paramus, NJ, This Fall
That's some motivation for shopping on the headache-inducing Rt. 17.
That's some motivation for shopping on the headache-inducing Rt. 17.
High five to my fellow eaters of bread rolled into a tight ball. I liked to moisten the bread ball with some saliva before rolling it.
Great article! I like both styles, but if I had to choose one I'd go with "classic Italian." Maybe it's just because I grew up with it, but when I think to myself, "I could go for an espresso" (or simply un caffe'), the Italian scenario is the one I want.
And thank you for confirming my impression that it takes forever to get an espresso in the U.S. :)
This is really nerdy, but I remember learning to read with a box of Kix cereal: "Low in sugar." I sounded it out!
She was great! Too bad the ham sketch isn't online.
There was/is significant post-World War II immigration from Italy.
Late to the party here, but I just want to chime in and say that espresso to go annoys the hell out of me. Glad to see it on the list! However, why does it seem that baristas in the US, even in NYC, can't make an espresso as quickly as baristas (err baristi) in Italy? Maybe I'm imagining things. Anyone else notice this? Is it because in Italy, almost everyone is getting espresso, whereas the variety of orders in the US slows down the whole flow?
Cucharamama is great! I'm happy to hear both restaurants have reopened.
As a side note, be sure to buy *several* votive candles-- we had 3 during the power outage and could barely play cards. :)
One more suggestion for a future visit: Andrea's Salumeria in the Heights.
Great to see an article about Jersey City. You should return to visit other worthy destinations, such as 30 Acres, Sapthagiri, Dosa House, the (New) Park Tavern, Pecoraro's, and (when it opens) Cocoa Bakery.
Am I the only person with little to no interest in doing anything creative with the leftovers? I don't mind a repeat of a good meal, and of course it's a well-deserved break when you've been busy. Sometimes my family gets together again for a reheated leftovers dinner, so everything gets eaten by Friday night anyway!
Wow, Letley, thanks for all the info!
My local Italian deli, Andrea's in Jersey City, carries the imported Italian Nutella, so I make sure to buy it there. I bet lots of NYC-area delis sell it.
In addition to the superior recipe, I also prefer the glass jar to the plastic one. Maybe I've just come to associate the glass jar with the better Nutella, but I don't know, it seems to add to the experience.
Great post!
With St. Joseph's Day not too far off (March 19), I'd like to point out zeppole (and sfingi) di San Giuseppe. I believe these are the cream-filled zeppole referred to above. They're very different from the street fair type.
Here's a WNYC piece about them:
There's a SE post on this very topic! That is, the *near* Penn Station part.
I love Kix, though I haven't had any in years. I learned to read the word "low" from Kix boxes-- "Low in sugar"
Sounds great. I bet that jar was like, 15 bucks though? All the more reason to try making it at home!
The archivist side of me feels the need to caution everyone that we have no evidence that this is *her* recipe. All we know is she wrote it down! :) For all we know, she never actually made it. OK, sorry, had to say that. It's still a really cool item.
Great post! I agree on all counts. I also hate chicken in pasta dishes, but that'd be a whole other article.
Wow, thanks for the photo of that salsa dispenser! And for clarifying the use of pineapple/tomato/onion in tacos al pastor. (Someone once told me al pastor used pineapple by definition, but I was pretty sure I'd had them without. On the other side of the fence is a friend who claimed the pineapple must be a yuppie addition.) Are the different methods based on region?
Whenever I buy a loaf of bread, I put about half of it in the freezer, in slices or sandwich-size lengths. I freeze fresh herbs; the frozen herbs are not as good as fresh but far better than dried. Also: pesto, tomato paste; portioned-out pancetta; sofrito in an ice cube tray; sometimes bananas and blueberries; leftover cake. Yay for the freezer.
@J.W. Hammer
Yeah, you must have seen the metal screens. I think they're common in various cheap pizza places. I don't know about the oiled surface, though.
Hot coffee all year round for me. I'll get an iced coffee maybe once or twice per summer, but never in the morning.
I like their coffee, croissants, and some of the soups and wraps.
However, I once tried a bagel, and it was literally the worst bagel I've ever had in my life. I didn't think it would be terrific; I figured it would be mediocre. But I was surprised (and frankly, pissed off) at just how horribly spongy it was.
Yes! I was pleasantly surprised to have a rather nice meal on Air France in 2009, in coach.
Thanks for this post! Hmm, I wonder what happened to that oven.
Has anyone noticed a decline in the quality of Ronnybrook products? The last 2 bottles of whole milk I purchased and the most recent container of whole milk yogurt haven't been nearly as good as I recall the products being in the past. Am I imagining things? I seriously wondered if the products were mislabeled nonfat versions, as there was no discernible cream.

So, I seem to have a c70 in my driveway.
Somehow, I'm not too sure exactly, this C70 ended up in my driveway last night. It might have been my fault. I might have gone and looked at it....... Thought it would be a good idea..........and loaded it into my truck and brought it home. It might have happened that way. I'm not too sure, cause it sure looks rough today!
I'm missing many of the parts out of the down draft carb (its a 1971), the kick starter, the gearshift lever, the throttle, the points cover, drive chain, and nearly every fastener out of the engine cases! I'm also missing the headlight.
But, the seat is shiny, and the speedo sure looks nice.
I've wanted/needed a small bike for running errands, and to ride to the girlfriends and not freak out about my truck sitting outside full of tools, or my" big" bike leaking oil all over the place. I've been watching locally here, and it seems that anything that runs, is worth about $1000. I did see one CT90 for $850, but that's still more than my budget (which is as little as possible).
After looking at what I've got in the daylight, I'm thinking I might be ahead of the game, to just buy a 70cc Lifan engine for the beast and be done with it. I could pull the switcheroo to 12v then too, as I have no battery, and no light bulbs right now anyway.
I'm not sure if the regular headlight sold for the passports fits on the c70, I guess I'll have to send an email over to dratv.
Should I consider shoving a bigger engine in the bike, instead of another 70cc? Is it worth it to jump up to the 110cc? I suppose that would let me move up a tooth or more on the front sprocket and let me go faster, which is always a plus! I am such a cheapskate though...
Anyway, without further ado, here is the sweet monster:
Look at how nice that seat is.
The mill:
And of course, no c70 or the like comes with out this, the obligatory milk crate holding various parts.
Nice. A "real" one and not the "Passport" model. Looks like there are parts from several different bikes there. Do you have the plastics?
If you do an engine swap I don't see any reason to go with a 70cc when a larger one is nearly the same price. Consider going to a 125cc.
The way folks drive around here, you need all the power you can get to dodge them. Get the bigger engines, heck they go up to 140 cc for very little extra. That engine looks like it had been very wet, probably can not be saved.
I think it's all the same bike. This is a '71, which makes it a C70M I guess, it should be all gold, but has been painted blue.
I think these came without the sweet plastic leg guards/body work.
I was looking in the engine last night, and it's in shockingly great shape. But, with all the junk I'm missing, it's only another $100 or so to switch to a new 110 motor.
I see the yellow where the gas tank goes now. The C70 came with a large plastic leg shield. The CT70 was the trail model, and did not have the leg shield, but it did have a plastic cover over the main frame tube.
I second the motion about going big. eBay offers a Lifan 125cc semi-auto motor w/o carb or electrics for $258 and complete for $299 DELIVERED. I have one in both my fiddy and my C70 Passport and they run great at a low price. Highly recommended.
120cc Lifan that made it to Daytona and hung at JD's Scrub.
I have an 82 that I use daily. I sure would like one of the downdraft carbs, I hear they haul ass. Looks like a nice project. I am thinking of selling my last 81, as I don't want to deal with points, but the ones with points seem to be peppy.
I have a few ct90s so Im familiar with that engine and the whole original vs. Lifan dilemma. I still prefer the Hondas over the Llifans but sometimes it is hard to justify the cost of going original. One thing to consider about going with a Lifan is that it is not a straight bolt in and go. You will need to adapt the wiring and if your bike was 6v you will need to convert to 12v. On the cts the foot pegs are different along with the engine mounts, but I think with yours the engine mounts might be the same as the Llifan. And then there is the exhaust to work out.
<?xml:namespace prefix = o ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office" /><o:p></o:p>
The original carbs are not that hard to find on ebay or you can slap on one or the inexpensive replacements sold by the good dr. Im not as familiar with the C models but I thought the carbs were a forward facing side draft not a down draft?
There are a ton of cool high performance parts for the 70s that will take them up to over 100cc and they are pretty cheap compared to high performance parts for a bigger bike. Of course there are also some pretty cool high performance parts for the Lifans too.
I should add that when I started looking for parts for the C70 I was surprised at how readily available they were. Most come from the far east but the sellers were real easy to communicate and deal with (via Ebay). They also were very amenable to offering me deals on shipping when I bought multiple items. I was able to find all the rusted (and missing) chrome/lights and etc items right off the bat. The quality of the (aftermarket) parts were excellent. I was hoping to find some beefier spokes to replace the rusted ones on the scoot but unless I want to order custom (through Buchanan) I'm stuck with the skinny ones. I wasn't sure about the added power and speed of a 125 on a wheel with bicycle dia. spokes.
The C70 frame and wheels are plenty strong, just look at what they haul on them in third world countries. The brakes are adequate as long as cables and cams are lubed and shoes are in good shape. Also, having a bigger engine doesn't mean you have to ride at 60 mph but it's nice to be able to accelerate fast enough avoid being run over.
I'm still waiting on my paperwork, gotta have that in my hands before I start working seriously on the bike. I have inspected the engine I've got, and although crusty, it seems to be in pretty good shape. It's spotless inside, and has compression, so I'll probably just repair what I've got for the time being. It'll be cheaper anyway, and I am a cheapskate!

THE Young Warriors will not be taking part at this year's Zone VI Games to be staged in Zambia next month.
According to the draw released by organisers, the Games will feature 10 men's Under-17 teams and four Under-20 women's teams. The football competitions at the Zone VI Games will fall under Cosafa.
The men's Under-17 tournament will see 10 countries split into two groups of five. Group A consists of hosts Zambia, South Africa, Malawi, Botswana and Seychelles, while Group B comprised of Angola, Namibia, Swaziland, Mauritius and Lesotho.
The matches will be played at the Nkoloma and Zanaco Sunset in Lusaka starting from December 7. The top two teams in each pool advance to the semi-finals.
Chef de mission for Team Zimbabwe, Joseph Muchechetere, said the lack of sponsorship forced them to restrict the number of participants at the Games. Zimbabwe will be represented in swimming, athletics, athletics in visually impaired and women's football team at the Games.
"There was no sponsorship for other sports like basketball, handball, U-17 football team, netball and other disciplines," said Muchechetere.

British Nuclear Fuels has pinpointed 2400 faults in an early version of the software that will monitor and control its new £1.8 billion nuclear fuel reprocessing plant at Sellafield known as Thorp. Although it is not uncommon to find large numbers of errors in earlier versions of software, it highlights the problem of ensuring the reliability of software that controls potentially dangerous processes.
BNFL used a computer simulation of the hardware of the plant to test the control software. Grenville Harrop, project and commissioning manager for Thorp, says 4 per cent of the faults 'could have placed a demand upon the safety systems' at the plant. All the faults detected have now been corrected, he says.
The government's nuclear watchdog, the Nuclear Installations Inspectorate, has confirmed that it will be analysing BNFL's software alterations. 'We will be conducting a software audit later this year to check how BNFL handles its ...

As the market closed on Friday, I decided to avoid purchasing shares of IRE stock. I liked the idea of a looming bailout, and a potential bounce. However, as the bailout is unfolding shares of IRE are down significantly in pre-market trading. The market does not feel bailouts are going to be enough to bring world economies out of their current funk. While a bailout will prevent a present failure, it does not guarantee there will be a recovery and eventual return to a healthy market. I am glad I held off on a purchase of IRE shares, maybe I will pick some up on the oversold side.

Reviewing penny stock markets determining opportunity, if any. Your guard should be up when researching penny stocks. Taking a company from a pennystock and eventually listing on a major exchange is a challenging feat. Many companies attempt it every year, many fail. One example is TRLG, initially a pennystock, recently bought out for $30 per share. Stocks like TRLG are rare, but they happen.

Systems up to 30 kW have the option of receiving an expected performance based buydown (EPBB) or a performance based incentive (PBI). Systems larger than 30 kW are only eligible for the PBI.
EPBB (effective 6/1/12):
Residential: $1.40/watt AC
Commercial and all PPAs: $0.85/watt AC
Non-profits and Government: $1.60/watt AC
Income-qualified residential: $4.00/watt
PBI (effective 6/1/12):
Residential: $0.212/kWh
Commercial and all PPAs: $0.129/kWh
Non-profit and Government: $0.242/kWh
Income-qualified residential: $0.632/kWh
PBI is awarded for the first 5 years of the system's operation.
Pasadena Water and Power (PWP) offers its electric customers a rebate for photovoltaic (PV) installations, with a goal of helping to fund the installation of 14 megawatts (MW) of solar power by 2017. The rebate amount varies depending on the customer class installing the system and the system's size. Systems up to 30 kilowatts (kW) are eligible for the Expected Performance Based Buydown (EPBB) or can opt for the performance based incentive (PBI). The EPBB provides a one-time lump sum payment after installation and inspection approval based on the system's estimated AC energy output. The energy output is estimated using the California Energy Commission's Clean Power Estimator, which accounts for installation factors such as current and future shading and system orientation. The PBI awards payments based on the actual metered electricity production of the system during its first five years. Larger systems, over 30 kW and up to 1,000 kW, are only eligible for the PBI.
As required by the California Solar Initiative, the PBI and EPBB incentive levels will step down annually over the 10-year life of this program. As of June 1, 2012, the base rate for the EPBB is $1.40/watt AC for residential, $0.85/watt for commercial, $1.60/watt for non-profits and government, and $4.00/watt for income-qualified residential. These levels are reduced depending on the Clean Power Estimator's analysis of the system. The current rate for the PBI is $0.212/kWh for residential. $0.129/kWh for commercial, $0.242/kWh for non-profit and government applicants, and $0.632/kWh for income qualified residential.
Must use CEC-certified [http://www.gosolarcalifornia.org/equipment/pv_modules.php PV modules] and [http://www.gosolarcalifornia.org/equipment/inverters.php inverters].
Systems must be grid-connected.
Inverters and modules must each carry a 10-year warranty.
PV modules must be UL 1703-certified
Inverters must be UL 1741-certified, and tested by the Energy Commission

columnBy Bekai Njie
Hello readers, welcome to the another edition of the Environment. In this edition, we would like to share with our wider readership agriculture and forestry, and their relations to climate change. In doing this analysis we would feature the recently concluded validation process of the country's Nationally Appropriate Mitigation Action (NAMA) for the Agricultural sector, in line with efforts towards reducing Greenhouse Gas emissions, as well as contributions to sustainable development in the country. The NAMA is aimed at reducing the effects of Greenhouse Gas emission in the efforts to combat climate change.
The deputy permanent secretary at the Ministry of Agriculture, Abdoulie Danso, on the occasion of the validation workshop, revealed that agriculture and forestry alone contribute significant amount of emissions of Greenhouse Gases.
The Gambia, he said, being located in the Sahelian Agro-climatic Zone is exposed to unpredictable weather conditions, including droughts, floods, declining soil fertility and pest and diseases outbreaks. "These incidences have overall negative effects on agricultural production and productivity more significantly in the medium and long terms, and consequently on food security, poverty alleviation and economic growth, all of which directly expose the realisation of our development strategies at risk," he asserted.
However, the deputy Agric PS outlined government's vision for the agricultural sector in transforming the country into major supplier of agricultural products to local and international markets between 2012 and 2015 by increasing food security and boosting the income-generating capacity and the nutritional status of farmers, especially women and youth; transform the agriculture sector from a traditional subsistence economy to a modern market-oriented commercial sector; increase and sustain agricultural production and productivity and enhance beneficiaries productive capacity through supervision, coordination, regulation and advice.
Danso outlined that climate change as a constraint to agricultural development, and a vector for socio-economic growth, has become a recurrent agenda of discussion.
NAMA for Agriculture
The NAMA document, entitled'Mitigating Greenhouse Gas Emission and concentration in the atmosphere through promotion of an integrated crop and livestock system in The Gambia', which was recently validated by experts from the agricultural sectorand stakeholders, seeks to reduce Greenhouse Gas emission and contribute to sustainable development in the country. The document in itself contained 10 mitigation actions with only four being proposed from the agriculture sector.
Speaking at the closing occasion, the minster of Forestry and Environment, Fatou Ndey-Gaye, said that developing this important project for the nation's agriculture sector is timely and appreciated, while maintaining that when funded and implemented, it would support the farming communities of CRR and URR to addressing issues related to reduction of the emission of Greenhouse Gases from crop production, animal husbandry and horticultural activities.
"The project will also enhance sustainable development in the two administrative regions and produce development spill-over at the national level. It is hoped that food and nutrition security will be partlyin these regions," she said.
The minister went on: "Your dedicated services are appreciated. The project document is in an excellent state ready for uploading into the UNFCCC registry of Nationally Appropriate Mitigation Actions in the name of The Gambia."
Madam Gaye said bilateral and multilateral development partners, particularly developed country parties to the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change are expected to pick up the project and provide financial, technological and capacity building support for the implementation.

Last night I did something I haven't done in years. YEARS. I….ate a frozen dinner.
As you might know, I went to Aldi for the first time the other day to check out "LiveGfree", their new in-house gluten-free product line. Among the things I picked up was a single-serving box of gluten-free ravioli.
I didn't expect to try it so quickly but last night my bff Jessica and I went to see comedian Maria Bamford. (side note: great show.) Before heading out, I decided to throw the ravioli meal in the microwave. Why not, right?
I opened it up. It looked fine. The actual ravioli were hard to see because of all the sauce and shards of frozen mozzarella that sat on top of what promised to be ravioli. As directed, I cut a small slit in the plastic and popped the tray in the microwave for five minutes.
Then I did what you do when you're making a frozen dinner: I hit up Facebook. Before I knew it, five minutes were up. The package told me to wait a minute before removing the dish from the microwave. I said to the package, "God mom! Stop telling me what to do!" No. Not really. I just continued to read Facebook.
After a minute, I took the meal out of the microwave. (It might have been a little more than a minute, you know how internet time goes. You sit down and it's light out and then you look up and it's dark. Wait? That does't happen to you? Never mind!)
My meal looked, how do I put this? Sad. The tomato sauce had spattered but was contained by the plastic wrap. And, still, I couldn't tell that there were ravioli in the dish.
Then, big moment here: I removed the plastic wrap! Finally I could see ravioli. YAY!
Even though it was a microwave dish, I plopped the ravioli onto a plate--although I did ponder the merits of just eating it out of the container. There were four ravioli. So not a huge portion but big enough.
I took a bite. HOLY MOLEY these were good! I really (really, really, REALLY) was surprised. I thought they'd be mushy or weird. Nope! They were tasty.
Honestly, I enjoyed my meal. The sauce was a little sweet for my taste but from microwave to plate it took six minutes; so let's not get all picky here. The ravioli were firm but still pillowy enough for my taste. The filling is your standard American ravioli filling: ricotta, romano cheese, and eggs. If you like frozen ravioli, you'll like this meal.
As I mentioned before, Aldi works with companies, called "copackers", to make their foods---and not just their gluten-free line. If I had to guess, I'd guess that this meal is made by Conte's. But that's just a guess. (I think it's a good guess. *cough*)
The price was great, too. The box cost me: $3.29.
The only bad news? These might not be available for very long. Aldi has stated that this is a "limited buy." However, I REALLY hope they keep these ravioli around. I'd buy them again!
Have you tried any of Aldi's products? Let me know in the comments!

Just a 'quick and dirty' of some thoughts on the system and some software after a few days...
Console itself
- Plusses: much more quiet than the 360; comes to life from standby in about five seconds; saying "Xbox on" to bring your whole entertainment center to life is awesome; system updates automatically while in standby; Kinect recognizes what you say with great accuracy
- Minuses: learning when and in what specific order to issue voice commands takes some time (no natural language like Siri); some things can be hard to find (like settings); hand gestures to control things takes a lot of patience
- Plusses: feels a bit better in your hand; ridges in the thumbsticks lessen slippage if your fingers get sweaty; improved and enhanced vibration
- Minuses: no warning if your batteries/battery pack are running low; enclosed headset doesn't detach from controller easily
TV watching via OneGuide and a connected provider box
- Plusses: saying "Watch CBS" and having it go there is really convenient if you're not near your cable/satellite remote; using the OneGuide to say "What's on BBC America" and having it jump there is really great (saying the name of a show you see elsewhere on the guide and going there is even cooler)
- Minuses: the voice commands merely generate the same RF frequencies as a remote, and they're entered... very... slowly (changing a channel takes about five seconds as you watch each number pop up on screen); some channels simply flummox the system (you'll never get "Watch WPPX" to work); pass-through HDMI surround sound support is technically beta and takes digging to an obscure part of system settings to enable; Verizon DVR doesn't power-up upon start
Call of Duty: Ghosts
- Plusses: stunningly gorgeous; controlling Riley the dog is novel, and the multiplayer guard dog killstreak reward can be very helpful; getting Field Orders after an MP kill as an 'on the fly' way to get a bonus is a neat touch
- Minuses: multiplayer is a huge step back from the near perfection of Black Ops II (ex. level progression is slow, Scavenger is nearly useless again, maps are not amazing and really unfriendly to running a sniper class in free-for-all, only lock-on weapon to take down aircraft is obtainable only via a killstreak, Maniac killstreak stupidly overpowered); both Demolition and Capture the Flag are, at present, not among the multiplayer modes; playing the campaign on Veteran mode is not quite as challenging as early series titles (but you will still curse... a lot)
Need For Speed: Rivals
- Plusses: just plain, fun, speedy, forgiving pick-up-and-play arcade style racing, whether you're the cop or the racer; can do many minor events against many random cars you see; very friendly to people joining you and mixing your world with that of other instances of the game currently being held
- Minuses: my god, the music is so terrible; if your Internet connection drops out, you lose a lot of seemingly unrelated functionality; steering feels really sluggish, especially at slower speeds
Forza Motorsport 5
- Plusses: Simply a work of art from a graphics standpoint; if you want to adjust settings by a mm here or there to try and drop three hundredths of a second from your lap times, you can; a ton of exquisite cars, both modern and classic; the guys from Top Gear, 'nuff said
- Minuses: you feel like you're a bit handicapped if you're just playing with a controller and not a wheel
Dead Rising 3
- Plusses: another purely fun game that's easy to play since there's no overly tough combos; zombies are always awesome; killing them with a flaming scythe is even more awesome; constantly running clock provides a good bit of tension; some really great, inventive combo weapons and they last a good while; SmartGlass app on your phone put you more in the action, as in-game texts come to you personally, not just your character
- Minuses: constantly running clock prevents thorough, careful exploration; collectibles like weapon blueprints are disappointingly spoon-fed via map icons that display them from a good city block away; irritating NPCs abound
If you're only getting one game, get DR3. It's a blast.

sizes, and surface coatings further determine structure and function of these molecules. Each such material has been specifically designed for function, such as the fullerene C60, which is used for fuel cell applications. Very little is known about engineered nanoparticles and how they interact with cells or human organisms, noted Colvin.
Nanotechnology has direct beneficial applications for medicine and the environment, but like all technologies it may have unintended effects that can adversely impact the environment, both within the human body and within the natural ecosystem. While taking advantage of this new technology for health, environmental, and sustainability benefits, science needs to examine the environmental and health implications.
Recently, nanotechnology has received considerable attention from the media. Most of the initial reports have been positive; however, scientists should not forget that not all nanomaterials will be benign, said Kenneth Olden, National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences. Therefore, it is very important to identify the negative aspects of the technology before we introduce it to the marketplace. During the workshop, many speakers and participants spoke of the paucity of data for engineered nanoparticles and cautioned against solely relying on the research of natural and incidential nanoparticles.
Determining toxicity can be complicated because not all engineered nanoparticles are more toxic than fine-sized particles of the same chemical composition. The surface coatings of particles, exposure to UV radiation, and dispersion properties can change the behavior of the particles, noted Eva Oberdörster of Southern Methodist University. For example, in pulmonary studies, whether particles aggregate and then disaggregate once they reach the lung fluids as well as the process for generation of nanoparticles, for example, fumed versus precipitated silica seems to be relevant. David Warheit, of the DuPont Company, suggested that developing a working hypothesis for determination of particle toxicity will depend on the capacity of the particles to cause cell and lung injury, promote inflammation, inhibit macrophage function, and persist in the lung. Finally, Warheit observed that species differences complicate research; for example, rats appear to be particularly sensitive to particle-induced pulmonary toxicity.
Some current hypotheses suggest that some engineered nanoparticles may be more toxic (inflammatory) than other fine-sized particles of identical chemical composition, noted Warheit. This concept is based primarily on a system evaluation of three particle types: titanium dioxide, carbon black, and diesel particles. However, he noted that the current hypotheses are based on a paucity of data.
John Froines of UCLA raised the question whether the research that scientists are doing on airborne particulate matter related health effects has relevance

Refaeli appeared in the French ELLE magazine, as well as becoming the first Israeli model to be featured in Sports Illustrated. The same picture was later published on the cover of Maxim. She appeared on the cover of the March 2006 issue of GQ Italy among many others. She appeared in the 2007 Sports Illustrated swimsuit issue for which she posed with Aerosmith.
She has been the spokesperson for fashion brand Luisa Cerano. She has modeled for Subaru, Accessorize, Brazilian clothing line, Besni, and Italian jewelry line Marco Bicego. She is signed to Storm Model Management in London, and 1/One Management in New York City. Refaeli will be the co-host of a Bravo special program Tommy Hilfiger Presents Ironic Iconic America which will premiere in early October. The program is based on book Ironic Iconic America written by George Lois.
In 2008, Refaeli has become the face of clothing line Hurley, and the new Diddy cologne I am King.
In 2009, Rafaeli will star in an English language film Session directed by Israeli Haim Bouzaglo. The film is a psychological thriller that tells the story of a manipulative psychiatrist, Josh Tellman, who becomes obsessed with a new young patient, Eden.
Bar Rafaeli and film director Shahar Segal have agreed to do a gratis campaign under the slogan "One Bag Less" to reduce the use of plastic bags.
In 2007, Refaeli became a source of controversy when it became known that she had evaded military service, mandatory for Israeli citizens over 18, by marrying a family acquaintance and divorcing him soon after. Refaeli stated in an interview with Yedioth Ahronoth, "I really wanted to serve in the IDF, but I don't regret not enlisting, because it paid off big-time," further adding, "Why is it good to die for our country? What, isn't it better to live in New York?" Refaeli has since said the interview didn't accurately reflect her statements and threatened to file a lawsuit for libel. Consequently, the Israeli Forum for the Promotion of Equal Share in the Burden threatened to boycott the fashion chain Fox if they hired Refaeli, but the two sides reached a compromise in which the model would visit injured IDF soldiers on visits to Israel and encourage enlistment in the army.

The oldest known stone-tipped projectiles have been discovered in Ethiopia. The javelins are roughly 280,000 years old and predate the earliest known fossils of our species, Homo sapiens, by about 80,000 years.

Life's not the breaths you take, the breathing in and out that gets you through the day ain't what it's all about. It's the moments that take your breath away.
My post wasn't an attempt to praise Clinton, rather I was trying to point out that spending too much money is a persistent problem in US government.
You philosophically don't agree with him and therefore nothing he could do would meet with your approval.
It is disingenuous to pretend to be upset with him because he did not follow through with all his campaign promises. No politicians ever can follow through with every campaign promise and in addition, the he does what he campaigned to do, the more upset people who voted against become.
I googled your source (this thread actually came up in my google search) and this guy seems like a little bit of a nutjob. A lot of the sites I found were part of the "Birther" movement
I also found Alinsky's Rules:
■"Wherever possible go outside the experience of the enemy. Here you want to cause confusion, fear and retreat."
■"Make the enemy live up to his/her own book of rules. You can kill them with this. They can no more obey their own rules than the Christian church can live up to Christianity."
■Ridicule is man's most potent weapon. It is almost impossible to counterattack ridicule. Also, it infuriates the opposition, who then react to your advantage."
■"The threat is generally more terrifying than the thing itself."
■"In a fight almost anything goes. It almost reaches the point where you stop to apologize if a chance blow lands above the belt."
■"Pick the target, freeze it, personalize it and polarize it."
■"One of the criteria for picking the target is the target's vulnerability … the other important point in the choosing of a target is that it must be a personification, not something general and abstract."
■"The enemy properly goaded and guided in his reaction will be your major strength."
It is amusing that this one site was bemoaning how unfair the Democrats are on their attacks, while it appears the campaign against Obama is following Alinsky's rules to a tee.
Republican or democrat - whomever sat in the Oval 95-99 was blessed with and gets credit for the "e" boom, price reductions for computing systems and the business efficiencies evolving from them.
As for Obama - he's getting skewered for his spending policies at a time the residents can't afford them.
Life's not the breaths you take, the breathing in and out that gets you through the day ain't what it's all about. It's the moments that take your breath away.
