To make filling, melt butter in a wide frying pan over medium heat.
Add garlic and onion and cook until onion is limp.
Add chicken and veal and stir to coat each piece with butter.
Cover pan, reduce heat to medium-low, and cook until meat is tender (about 35 minutes).
Using a food processor or the finest blade of a meat grinder, finely chop meat mixture.
Blend with ricotta, Parmesan, egg, salt, and nutmeg. (If made ahead, blend meat mixture with ricotta, Parmesan, salt, and nutmeg. Cover and refrigerate. Mix in egg just before filling.)
To make white sauce, melt butter in a 2-quart pan over medium heat.
Stir in flour and cook, stirring, until bubbly.
Remove pan from heat and stir in chicken broth and milk.
Return to heat and cook, stirring, until sauce is smooth and thickened.
To make tomato sauce, melt butter in a 2-quart pan over medium-high heat.
Add shallots and cook until soft.
Cut tomatoes in half and squeeze out seeds (strain juice); finely chop tomatoes.
Add tomatoes and juice to pan along with chicken broth, basil, and salt.
Stirring occasionally, simmer, uncovered, until sauce is thick (about 30 minutes).
Cook fresh or frozen pasta, 4 or 5 rectangles at a time, in a large kettle of boiling salted water until al dente (2 to 3 minutes).
Remove with a slotted spoon, rinse with cold water, and drain.
When all pasta is cooked, fill by placing about 1/4 cup meat filling in a row along one long edge of each rectangle: roll to enclose.
Stir tomato sauce into white sauce until well blended.
Spread half the sauce mixture in a buttered baking pan.
Place filled cannelloni, seam side down and slightly apart, in sauce.
Pour remaining sauce mixture over cannelloni.
Top each cannelloni with a slice of teleme just slightly longer and wider than the top of each noodle.
If made ahead, cover and refrigerate until next day.
Bake, uncovered, in a 400° oven until hot and bubbly and cheese melts (about 30 minutes).

SAN DIEGO, May 10, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- Marshall Edwards, Inc.(Nasdaq: MSHL), an oncology company focused on the clinical development of novel therapeutics targeting cancer metabolism, announced today the closing of the asset purchase agreement entered into between the Company and its majority shareholder, Novogen Limited, and Novogen Research Pty Limited on December 21, 2010. The closing of the transaction follows approval at a meeting of Novogen shareholders on May 6, 2011. The agreement was previously approved at Marshall Edwards' Annual Meeting of Stockholders on April 13, 2011. Under the agreement, Marshall Edwards acquires Novogen's isoflavone-based intellectual property portfolio in a stock-based transaction.
"The closing of this strategic transaction gives us, once and for all, the flexibility to develop and partner these valuable assets and enables us to explore other potential drug candidates and indications within the portfolio," said Daniel P. Gold, Ph.D., President and Chief Executive Officer of Marshall Edwards. "We look forward to entering the clinic with two next-generation drug candidates, NV-143 and NV-344, this year."
Previously, Marshall Edwards licensed rights from Novogen for oncology drug candidates Phenoxodiol, Triphendiol, NV-143 and NV-128. Effective immediately, all prior licensing agreements between the two companies, including any potential future milestone or royalty payments, are canceled.
Each share of the 1,000 shares of Class A Preferred Stock is convertible into 4,827 shares of Marshall Edwards common stock for an aggregate of 4,827,000 shares, valued in total at $4 million based on the volume weighted average price over the 20 trading days prior to the date of the date of the execution of the asset purchase agreement.

Learn how to speed up time and create compelling visual effects with time-lapse photography. Join Rich Harrington in the field as he captures nature's patterns at Red Rock Canyon in southwestern Nevada, and shows how to frame your scene and choose the proper camera settings. He'll show you how to capture great images, whether you're using a DSLR camera and a motorized slider or just a smartphone you have handy. Then join him back in the studio to transform your still footage into a storytelling time-lapse video, using tools like Photoshop, Premiere Pro, and Final Cut Pro.
This course was created and produced by Rich Harrington. We are honored to host this content in our library.
Rich: If you've identified that some frames in a time lapse are unwanted, it's a good idea to remove them. But, what could make a frame problematic? Well, maybe you repositioned the camera or had a slight adjustment to the overall framing. Perhaps somebody stepped in front of your camera, or a bird landed on the end of your lens for a second. Maybe something distracting happened, like the light got flipped on in the room when you were shooting a night time Time Lapse. In any case, it's possible that the shot gets interrupted or that you make some tweaks and it settles down. In either case it's a good idea to remove the frames that are offensive and just delete them or move them to a new destination.
I've already grouped these into stacks and remember stacks have a little slide show making it very easy for you to drag through. Notice at the very end there, a couple of the frames shifted. I like seeing the shadow grouw up the side of the face so that's good, but those last frames are problematic. So let's expand that, and scroll down, there we go, and I can now click through. Well, there definitely seems to be a shift there on those last couple of frames.
I'm not sure if the camera got bumped, maybe we were fiddling with the intervalometer, but those frames don't match the rest. So I'll just select them, an then I can right-click, an move those to the trash, or move them to a new location. There we go, let's collapse that. And choose the next one here, and there's definitely a jump at the beginning.
There it is, these first two frames. I'll select those and press Cmd+Delete. Now this makes it very simple as you're working to check shots. And you can also drag through. Now, sometimes you may see what appears to be a jump, but it could be nothing, in that the raw file might just be decoding. There we go, that one looks good. Let's close that stack, choose this other one here, open it up, and that's all good.
They're moving. Everything looks fine, and I think that one worked okay. Let's take a look all the way through. Yeah, great. So we have those cleaned up. Now, as you delete frames, you're ending up modifying the overall numbering of the sequences. Plus, many of these files, could have repeated file names to other files on your hard drive. Let's take a look at some ways to prevent bad media habits.

... side and looks as if it's WW or WAW on the other
Answers (3)
3 Jul 2012
If the tablet is blue with a 10 on one side and a DAN with four numbers on the other, it is 10 mg Valium.
If it is a green tablet with a 10 on one side and DAN and four different numbers, it's probably methyphenidate, a brain stimulate. Either of these medications requires a prescription from a doc. If the tablet is a different color, and you said it had WW or WAW on one side, call your pharmacist or poison control in your area if you need to know specifically what the med is. That's my best information.
Oh it was meant for you!!! Right answer!
Thx Rajive,
How are you feeling lately? How is your leg and foot? Hope everything is healing nicely with minimal pain. Great to see you!!!
Thanks Laura, my leg is 95% cured but now the pain is unbearable & I have vowed never to near a pain killer, because I am susceptible to addiction, gave up alcohol & cigarettes with great pain don't want t get into narcotic meds.

Urban and Land Development
Satellite imagery for urban and land development can be used to gather strategic planning information pertaining to a district or an entire city. High resolution satellite imagery and LiDAR incorporated into a GIS (Geographic Information Systems) and CAD (Computer Aided Drafting) has gained popularity among Planners, Developers and Engineers for large scale mapping of any region for most urban and land development applications.
Information from satellite images when combined with GIS mapping is used for analysis in evaluating construction costs as well as environmental impact of alternative routes for utility and transport corridors; land cover and land use classification; identifying population groups at risk where human intervention is most needed to limit and prevent hazards during development stages.

Satellite Imaging Corporation (SIC) is experienced in negotiating custom satellite images within both satellite and client-governed time-line. We work with satellite image data from many United States and foreign operated satellites to procure the desired satellite image data needed for city planning and urban land development projects. Our geodetic and mapping experts create two-dimensional interactive mapping projects by overlaying third-party data, such as land cadastre ownership information, census data, and labels of geographic features.
Satellite image data is highly useful for creating or updating base maps and detecting major changes in urban land cover and land use due to their multispectral band combinations, which allows for frequent coverage and overlaying of different time sequences to classify soil and vegetation areas for the proposed development area(s). Other applications include:
- Updating information on road networks and other urban infrastructure
- Collection and analysis of data on population density, distribution and growth
- Preparation of housing typologies
- Analysis of watersheds

RUSH tasking orders for satellite image data around the world are accepted by SIC in support of live events, natural disasters, global security, and various other applications in which FAST delivery of image data is critical. In most instances, we can provide image data within 24 hours after the initial data has been acquired and delivered via FTP and DVD media.

Originally written on Fox Sports | Last updated 6/6/12
The Baltimore Orioles signed 49-year-old left-hander Jamie Moyer to a minor-league deal Wednesday, and assigned him to Triple-A Norfolk. The Colorado Rockies released Moyer at the end of last month, a little over a month after he became the oldest pitcher to win as a starter. Moyer is expected to start for Norfolk on Saturday against Buffalo. On April 17, Moyer earned the win with the Rockies in a 5-3 victory over San Diego to become the oldest starter ever to win in the majors. Moyer is 269-209 with a 4.25 ERA in his 24-year career, playing for eight teams. He pitched for the Orioles in 1993-95, and also has spent time with Philadelphia, Seattle, Boston, St. Louis, Texas and the Chicago Cubs. He missed the 2011 season while recovering from reconstructive elbow surgery.

About Stuff the Bus
As the Signature Project of The Junior League of Bryan-College Station, Inc., Stuff the Bus works to provide school supplies to over 16,000 students in Bryan-College Station every fall. In 2013, the Stuff the Bus Committee, along with many Active, Provisional, and Sustaining members, donated more than 1000 volunteer hours June through September. There were more than 300,000 school supplies purchased which equates to 35 pallets (more than a semi-truck full) that were distributed to 32 different local schools. With the help of our generous sponsor, HEB, we were able to collect over $15,000 in tear-pad donations (over doubled from 2012) and $11,000 (almost a 40% increase from 2012) worth of pre-packaged school supplies for local in-need students.
Together with community partners, our League has successfully distributed supplies to over 150,000 students since the project began in 2000. From start to finish, this project is executed by Junior League members. Over the summer, Stuff the Bus boxes are placed around town to encourage community participation. In 2013, we had over 100 boxes placed around the community! Supplies are sourced, ordered, sorted, bagged and distributed by League members.
This program tremendously and positively impacts the youth in our area. The Junior League is very proud to lead this effort and to be able to work with the community in such a meaningful manner.
If you have a child in Bryan ISD (BISD) or College Station ISD (CSISD) that is in need of school supplies, we encourage you to communicate that need to your child's school. The Junior League of Bryan-College Station, Inc. provides all of the school supplies directly to BISD and CSISD for distribution to their students.

Death Will Smile Upon You 2
When classic shoot 'em ups like Ikaruga and new, HD titles like Söldner-X 2: Final Prototype are sold for cheap via download services, a $50 retail product such as Deathsmiles becomes a questionable purchase. If one were to judge solely on playtime, they'd see a game that lasts 20 minutes. Calling that a pittance isn't an exaggeration; it's fact. In most shoot 'em ups, the underlying value comes from challenge and replayability, ...37 out of 40 found this review helpful.
Duped 2
I'm a lover of the shooter genre and have been a big old-school player, combing through years of insane romps through bullet ridden levels. Throw in a dash of Japanese styled mayhem and I'm all over it. This release, which I had no idea was coming sparked my interest immediately. So much to the point that I didn't care about reading any reviews before picking it up. Problem is 30 minutes later I had already made my way through all the levels and unlocked over 200 achievement points, with only a ...1 out of 7 found this review helpful.
Death Smiled apparently and So Did I 0
I have spent nearly a week dabbling around on this game and have to admit that it possesses some non-simple, unidentifiable element of fun within its nest of flying cow heads, skull orb collecting, pink bullets that may or may not hurt you and flying, just recently post-pubescent angel schoolgirls. Admittedly I am a sucker for cheesy, niche titles such as these. I am not really sure why. They have just always scratched some unforeseen itch that I acquire from time to time. However, I have ne...0 out of 2 found this review helpful.

Spohn South to pay $21K penalty in heparin mixing error
CORPUS CHRISTI - Christus Spohn Hospital South has paid a $21,000 penalty in connection with a pharmacy mixing error last year that led to heparin overdoses to as many as 17 babies.
The Texas Department of State Health Services issued the penalty in June.
The penalty was the result of allegations that related to the hospital pharmacy's staffing, records and the distribution of drugs, according to the latest report of the department's enforcement actions.
"The allegations made by the department were denied by Christus Spohn but in an effort to avoid the further expense of administrative proceedings the hospital agreed to pay the administrative penalty," hospital spokeswoman Sherry Carr-Deer said.
Hospital officials have said the error occurred during a drug mixing process in the hospital's pharmacy in July 2008 but that the drug caused no direct adverse effects to any of the babies.
At the time, the hospital pharmacy was being managed by Cardinal Health.
"We're responsible because it's in our facility," Carr-Deer said.
Carr-Deer said that within the past year the health system has taken back the management responsibilities for the pharmacies at all its area hospitals.
That decision was based on an overall assessment and not directly related to the heparin overdoses, she said.

Hello everyone..
Just got back from D/MGM and EPCOT Center, where I spent a quick couple of hours checking out this year's Star Wars Weekends 2006 event and EPCOT's tamer version of Mission: Death, err.. Space, which I would lovingly like to call "Mission: Chickens in Space". Hahaha!!! I kill myself!!
First up. The geekiest event at WDW since the good old days of the Disneyana Conventions at the Contemporary.. "Star Wars Weekends 2006" Not to be confused with the frumpiest event in Nov or the gayest one next weekend in early June)... And when I say "geekiest" .... I mean it with LOVE since I am the Queen Geek of all things Disney, so look who's talking!!!
Arrived at MGM in mid afternoon and much to my surprise...the place was not as jammed packed as I expected it. As in previous years... you could not walk inside MGM when the Star Wars fans took over the place but I have to admit, I was shocked today was mildly crowded and not all that unpleasant. Of course.. I have to admit I am not a Star Wars fan and would be the last person to cry if Star Tours was given the pink slip, but today's event was simply low key. I have to admit further the only reason I went was to buy the event limited edition pin and Darth Vader Goofy plush for a friend, otherwise you would not be enjoying this little report. The highlight of the day: seeing Jake Lloyd from Star Wars Episode 1. Little Anakin is now grown up and a manly little man. Hubba Hubba. Short in height and cute as a button, he sat there autograghing away for fans of all ages and sexes. While he will eternally be remember as young Anakin Skywalker, I do hope he is able to shake that off and move on to other things in the entertainment field. Not sure what else he has done, but being as cute as he is... I would not mind seeing him do something else in the field.
Anyways... the usual stuff around the Studios... some Star Wars fans in character costumes, some of the (Disney-employed) character walkarounds posing with guests, the Jedi Academy show, photo ops with Jedi Mickey and Darth Maul and Vader...etc etc etc.
Studio Soundstage #1 (the former home to MMC, aka the show that launched Cristina, Justin and that tramp Britney) was transformed in the event's merchandise location. They also had some "pay" photo ops next to an X-Wing craft and other activities.
After about 45 mins in that area (seemed like most of the Star Wars event was confined to Mickey Ave.) I was bored and left for EPCOT to try the new tamer version of "Mission: Space".
Arriving at EPCOT, the lines at the front were a bit backed up but not as bad as I have seen on other days... and they moved expeditiously enough to be bearable. I headed straight (or gayly forward) towards Mission: Space, and immediatedly noticed the new signage out front by the ride. You are now required to make up your mind which way you'd like to do the ride: Intense or less-intense. If you want the full force version, then you choose to go on the "Orange" line. If you go on the tamer version, then you go on the "Green" line. A CM at the front of the line will ask which version you will ride and will provide you with a leaflet either green or orange in color with more advisories and lawyer-administered cautions. Later on, another CM will grab these leaflets from you and point you in the right direction. PLEASE NOTE: due to the dual ride version availability, the "single rider line" has been *eliminated*. Muahahahaha!!!!! Oh well.
Of course... the tamer version was posting a 5 min wait so I proceeded promptly and was immediately assigned into the briefing room, where we have to endure the Gary Sinese (sp?) spiel about training jada jada... But of course, this being WDW and this not being the perfect place it once was... the Gary intro came to a hault and nothing else happened. We stood there for about another 5 mins before a CM came thru the entrance to tell us they were having "technical difficulties" and would be moving to another briefing room... Bad news though... we had to watch that Gary video once again!!! Luckily, no one slashed their wrists at this point in time. The video has been edited so that new language refering to the tamer version was allowed to be inserted into it.
Anyways... we proceed to the final briefing before getting on the ride...Here, the last briefing video was re-edited and the part in which you are told to keep head against headrest and avoid looking sideways was edited out. From this point on... nothing else was different.
The ride itself remains exactly the same. Nothing in the ride's video has been changed. However.. there is no spinning at all. Yet, the sensation of speed is effectively achieved as the ride's pods tilt, shake and sway the same way they did before. The only difference I noticed was on launch. Seemed to me the pod tilted backwards much farther than it did before, allowing gravity to take over and achieving that "push" feeling we felt in the original version. The sensation of travel and light gravity was still effectively achieved with what was left there from the original version and in all honesty, it did not hamper the enjoyment factor one bit. I was still surprised at how well the ride plays throughout, especially at the ride's climax moments when your craft is about to land on Mars...the "drop" sequence as we decended upon Mars still gave me butterflies in my stomach. KUDOS!!!
Now... final thoughts on this. The ride does loose a bit of thrill without the spinning g-forces, however, the loss is so minimal, it doesn't really matter. I actually wondered for a second why not kill the intense version and leave the tamer version on permanently from this point on, but I realize Disney wants to give the vomit seekers something Universal is better at delivering. So I am OK in regards to living with both versions, and I feel this is one of Disney's best decisions of late to offer a tamer version of the ride.... However, there are still some restrictions to keep in mind. For example, pregnant women are still not allowed to ride the tamer version and I would not advise it either. For people who have hearing problems of are easily prone to dizziness due to ear problems such as ringing noise etc... I would not advise to ride either. Keep in mind that while your body is not being compressed against the seatback, you are still going to feel some "air time" in some portions of the ride.. so be cautions. Just in case, the vomit bags are still there just in case. Use them if you must, but aim away from me if we happen to share a ride...
...And that just about summs up my feelings on this topic.. and because I am nice I am sharing some of the pics I took today for your enjoyment.

28 year old man | Royal Oak, MI, USA | Seeking women 22-27 within 50 miles
Lets share some laughs and have a good time.
***Currently not subscribed*** A young, outgoing, well educated, and active professional looking for someone similar. My friends always say I end up being the life of the party and that I am really easy to be around. I agree. I enjoy making new friends and sharing experiences with others. Nothing makes me smile more than when I make someone's day. I believe my good nature has allowed me to accumulate a great group of lifelong friends that I am very close to. I am grateful for my loving and supportive family and friends. My family, along with my friends have always pushed me to do my very best and I try not to let them down. I am a very driven individual with a lot of goals in life, namely to be happy AND successful. This has led me to pursue a career in law. Upon graduation I hope to find an interesting attorney position with the government. When I am not studying for school or working I spend most of my time with my friends. You will likely find me out In Royal Oak, Detroit, or Ann Arbor having a good time. I like to think I have a great sense of humor and I enjoy making others laugh, although this used to get me in trouble in school. I am often found laughing (and cringing) in awkward situations, and I enjoy witty humor and comedy parodies. I also tend to fall victim to inappropriate humor from time to time, but hey who doesn't. Last year I took up Crossfit and I am addicted. It has been an awesome experience that has allowed me to push myself physically further than I thought possible. I am currently training for a marathon and the Tough Mudder race coming up this summer which I am very excited for. I am hoping to find someone that is also very outgoing, social, and driven. I am extremely attracted to intellectually mature women with a great sense of humor. Someone with an open mind who is curious about the world would make a great match for me. If you are the type of woman that is always ready to explore, enjoys brightening someones day, and has a positive outlook on life then give me a shout. Hopefully we can make each other laugh, and be there to support each other as we strive to achieve our goals in life.

You think you're hungry? Maybe you just need...
"..there are four [appetite] centers - four places in the brain where you have absolute cravings. You crave food, you crave water, you crave sleep and you crave sex. If you don`t have enough of one, you can take more of the other. People who don't have sex will crave more of the sleep, if they don`t get more of the sleep, they`ll crave more of the food. Over and over again," according to Dr. Oz.

Sartre's Roads to Freedom
Asked where he was coming from, my friend's son replied, "From the demo against the death of Sartre." It was April 19, 1980, and the definition fitted perfectly, for Sartre's funeral, attended by some 50,000, could be described as the last demo of the New Left. It was posthumous in another sense. The engagement associated with Sartre--the intellectual's or writer's social and political commitment--had been cast aside five years earlier by the self-appointed "new philosophers"--crude in thought but skilled in propaganda--who loudly proclaimed that any attempt to alter society radically was bound to end with the gulag. Indeed, the cliché fashionable well into the eighties was that Sartre's fellow at the highly competitive École Normale, Raymond Aron--an intelligent pillar of the Western establishment, a sort of superior Daniel Bell--had always been right, whereas son petit camarade Jean-Paul had always been wrong. But such was the pressure of propaganda that the other side merely snapped back that it was better to be wrong with Sartre than to be right with Aron.
Has the mood changed twenty years on? Six books devoted to Sartre have just been published here for the anniversary. Newspapers have been full of portraits, weeklies and monthlies replete with extracts, comments and assessments. Are these not signs, as many titles suggested, of a comeback, a resurrection? On the international scale, judging by the conferences held and books printed, Sartre has never quite been forgotten. Yet even in the narrow Parisian and political sense, one can talk only of a partial revival. Sartre is feted not because of his engagement but in spite of it. Of the books mentioned, only the smallest, that of Benoit Denis, which is devoted to literary commitment from Pascal to Sartre, does justice to the latter's contribution to the struggles of the intellectuals. Philippe Petit, who seems sympathetic to la cause de Sartre, writes essentially about that extraordinary monument of literary criticism, The Family Idiot, Sartre's 2,988-page unfinished analytical portrait of Flaubert. And Olivier Wickers elegantly muses on various aspects of this literary figure. But three others start from the premise that Aron was always right. Indeed, since they describe Sartre as Stalin's stooge and a servant of totalitarianism, we shall have to return to the heart of the matter. But first, why so much talk about the man at all?
Younger people cannot remember the impact, the extraordinary charisma, of this far from handsome little man with a lazy eye. I am not referring here to the postwar craze, when tourists invaded the caves and cafes of Saint-Germain-des-Prés in search of existentialists and innumerable youngsters took as their model the "free couple" of Jean-Paul and Simone (known as le castor, French for beaver, of which her name de Beauvoir was apparently a reminder). No, I am talking about the crucial part performed by Sartre for at least three decades after the war in the cultural and political battles on the international stage, about his role as the chief critic of the Western world (in retrospect, and considering the importance of The Second Sex, one should probably talk of the influence of the couple).
Prolific and many-sided are ridiculous euphemisms when applied to Sartre. We know from The Words that he acquired in childhood the habit of writing for six to seven hours a day, and much more (with the help of all sorts of drugs) when the issue fascinated him or the timetable required it. He wrote some philosophy with literary elegance and put philosophical ideas into his novels. But he was also a playwright, a major literary critic, a screenwriter and a cultural and political essayist, not to mention the innumerable petitions he wrote or signed whenever he thought injustice was involved. He turned down all the honors bestowed by the establishment, including the Nobel Prize for Literature. Herbert Marcuse once called him "the conscience of the world."
Fame and political involvement came rather late. Sartre was almost 40 when World War II ended. A teacher by training, he had already published an important novel (Nausea), a collection of short stories (The Wall); had had two plays staged (The Flies and No Exit) and had finished his major philosophical work (Being and Nothingness). Though he was vaguely leftish, he was not very involved in politics. More serious was his hatred for his own milieu, the bourgeoisie, which cannot be explained in purely psychoanalytic terms (his father died when he was 1, and his happy life with his widowed mother was interrupted eleven years later by his bourgeois manager stepfather). Sartre's Resistance record, while not heroic, was honorable. Yet it was only after the war that he began to preach the imperative of political commitment.
Most commentators attribute the change to his brief stay in a German camp for French prisoners of war. Sartre the individualist found himself for the first time in a popular collectivity and enjoyed it. This certainly helped, but the reasons were much deeper: It was the war, the Resistance and the situation after the conflict. Like Mathieu, one of the heroes of his Roads to Freedom, Sartre the libertarian individualist had finally to answer the question: freedom for what purpose? The subject of literature, he now said, has always been man in the world. The writer "must show the reader his power to make, or to unmake, in short to act--for man is to be reinvented every day." He even suggested that the task of the writer was "to struggle in favor of the freedom of the person and of socialist revolution."
This activist message accounts for Sartre's tremendous popularity as well as for the hatred he aroused as "the corrupter of youth" (right-wingers actually paraded with the slogan "Shoot Sartre"). This attitude corresponded to the mood of the times. France was torn, radicalized by war and occupation. The movement of colonial liberation was spreading. And the world was soon to be split in two by the cold war. It is interesting to note that at war's end, though he was unquestionably a leftist, Sartre took several years to choose his side. While now interested in Marxism and the class struggle, Sartre was very often the target of attacks by Communists, both French and foreign. He was among the writers about whom the Soviet hack A. Fadeyev said, at an intellectual congress in 1948, that "if hyenas could use fountain pens and jackals could use typewriters" they would be writing like them. But it was give and take. Sartre wrote that "the politics of Stalinist Communism are incompatible with the honest exercise of the literary profession." He argued that Stalinism had rendered Marxism sterile, because you cannot turn "dialectics into formulae for catechism." His monthly magazine, Les Temps modernes, did admit that "there is no socialism when one citizen out of twenty is in a camp." Indeed, for a time Sartre and other leftists tried to create their own movement, for a socialist Europe separate from the Soviet Union as well as the United States. It was only in 1951-52 that he chose sides.
The last days of Stalin's reign, with ghastly trials in Eastern Europe, may not have been the best period for conversion, but with the Korean War, the witch hunts and the hardening of lines on both sides, this was a time when choice was thrust upon people. Sartre reacted to the demonstration against NATO commander Gen. Matthew Ridgway, smashed in Paris by the police, with his famous "an anti-Communist is a dog." His basic premise at the time was that the Communist Party was the only revolutionary representative of the French working class and that the Soviet Union was a socialist state in need of repair (en panne). He then wrote a pamphlet in honor of a French Communist sailor resisting the French invasion of Indochina; he spoke at the peace congress in Vienna in 1952; he also traveled to Russia and wrote things that he should not have: for instance, that "freedom of criticism there was complete." Yet even then, collaboration between Sartre and the Communists was mutually suspicious, and it broke off in 1956, when Soviet tanks entered Budapest. Sartre then proclaimed that he would sever links with Soviet writers who did not condemn this massacre; "as to the men who at this time direct the French CP, it is not, and it would never be, possible to resume relations."
Never say never. Circumstances altered. There was some hope of a thaw in the Soviet Union and Eastern Europe and the putsch that brought de Gaulle to power in 1958. Add the anticolonial struggle (Sartre discovered Castro's Cuba and wrote the violent preface to Frantz Fanon's The Wretched of the Earth), especially the war in Algeria, during which, incidentally, Sartre's Paris flat was blown up by rightist OAS thugs. And so he reappeared on common platforms with Communists and resumed his fairly frequent journeys to the Soviet Union (we now know that these also had a sentimental reason: his beautiful translator and guide, Lena Zonina). But the collaboration was always strained, since Sartre was no man to march to a party line. For instance, he signed and published in his journal the famous "Manifesto of the 121," approving the desertion of French soldiers in the Algerian war, whereas the CP was against it. But the final break came in 1968: In May the student demonstrations and the strikes ultimately convinced Sartre that the French CP was not a revolutionary force. In August the tanks entering Prague persuaded him that the Soviet Union and its bloc needed much, much more than repairs. He ceased to believe in its progressive function.

Feeling that island vibe at Tommy Bahama's
Tommy Bahama
Where: 1220 Third St. S., Naples, 643-6889, www.tommybahama.com
Hours: 11 a.m. to 10 p.m. daily
Cuisine: Tropic inspired
Beverages: Beer, wine and Tommy Bahama's signature martinis and cocktails
Atmosphere: Island-themed and cheery
Service: Can get a little slow during rush hour, but otherwise is good
Recommended dishes: Scallop sliders ($11.50), Antigua quesadilla ($12.50) and Tobago pork tenderloin ($27.50)
Verdict: Some may say Tommy Bahama is too touristy, the truth is it serves solid island inspired fare in a very pretty setting
There are those who love Tommy Bahama and those who love to hate it and call it a tourist trap. The reasons both groups have for harboring such strong feelings, incidentally, are the same: the place is always packed, out-of-towners dig it and the restaurant has that cheerful Caribbean ambience people expect when vacationing in Southwest Florida.
Part of a chain that currently has 12 restaurants in six states, the Tommy Bahama in Naples happens to be the original one, occupying a large piece of prime real estate on glitzy Third Street South. Tommy Bahama is no come-lately, however. The restaurant was there when Third was nothing but the street between Second and Fourth. It was also one of the first restaurants I dined at during my early days in Naples, more than 10 years ago.
While the décor and atmosphere haven't changed a bit — the one-man band singing Jimmy Buffett tunes and the bright Hawaiian shirts are there to stay — the menu has gone through several facelifts. After trying several dishes over the course of a few recent visits I can say with confidence that Tommy Bahama is like certain cheeses, or George Clooney for that matter: It gets better with age.
Appetizers are large enough to share and feature Florida favorites such as coconut shrimp with papaya and mango chutney ($11.50) and intelligent takes on dishes that otherwise would be boring. Case in point: the Antigua quesadilla ($12.50) has little in common with your standard Mexican favorite and is stuffed with warm goat cheese, spicy Monterey jack and grilled asparagus, then topped with a sweet tomato jam, lime-infused sour cream and a sprinkle of queso fresco. The flavors — from the tanginess of the cheeses and cream to the sweetness of the jam — blend well together. The result is a starter that pleasantly surprises the taste buds.
Also worth a note are the South Seas scallop sliders ($11.50), a fun play on the mini-burger mania that has spread in restaurants everywhere. Two plump scallops are pan seared and then served on two small toasted buns, topped with fresh basil, Roma tomatoes and spicy chipotle aioli. The crispy shoestring onions that come as a side are an added bonus for those who love some fries with their burger.
Main courses, too, have a definite tropical flair, whether you order meat or fish. The Tobago pork tenderloin ($27.50) is one of the best dishes served at Tommy Bahama —brined for added tenderness, grilled to order and served with a gooey cherry and Merlot chutney and mashed sweet potatoes. The Boca Chica chicken ($21.50), chicken breast marinated in Cuban spices and grilled, comes with black beans, dirty rice and mango relish — simple flavors that work well together.
My all-time favorite entrée at Tommy Bahama, however, remains the Shoal Bay snapper ($29.50), a fresh filet of Gulf snapper encrusted in macadamia nuts and served with a dollop of spicy wasabi soy butter. Years ago the dish used to be made with mahi. Regardless of what white fish the chef decides to use, the macadamia crust is what makes this dish, adding a wonderful nuttiness to the delicate flavor of the fillet.
Although I'm not usually one to long for desert, there are a couple of sweet options on Tommy Bahama's menu that are worth the try — and the calories. One is Blackbeard's butterscotch ($6) an incredibly rich and creamy whiskey-and-vanilla pudding smothered in homemade caramel sauce. The other one is the pineapple upside-down vanilla cheesecake ($8), made with caramelized pineapple and cane sugar, then topped with homemade caramel sauce.
The caramel sauce is what makes both desserts. Not too sweet, and gooey to the right point, it's so good one could just eat it with a spoon.
A word of caution: unless this is your last weekend in town and you plan to never come back, wait for the slow season to give Tommy Bahama's a try. Waits can be as long as an hour, no matter which night you pick, no matter if you want to sit inside or outside.

Babcock After The Morning Skate
by Paul on 04/27/13 at 02:35 PM ET
Comments (1)
At the end of the interview, Babcock brought up a very good point, stating in a normal season the Wings play some games in the East which allows them to "freshen" up a bit.
But as we know there was no time to freshen up with all the games against the West which brought about some brutal travel.

I haven't heard from Georg today, so I am going to assume he is still dealing with food poisoning.
I will post any major news from the morning skate if need be, but let's hope there isn't anything major to report.
In the meantime, what are you doing to kill time until 7:00pm ET tonight?
Any superstitions you will bring out of the closet tonight or do you feel very confident the Wings will get at least one point, thereby making the playoffs for the 22nd straight season?
added 11:24am.
So far we know Richard Backman will be the starting goalie for Dallas and Nashville will have Chris Mason in goal tonight when they play in Columbus.

The 21-Year Streak
by Paul on 04/26/13 at 05:32 PM ET
Comments (7)
from Sean McIndoe of Grantland,
It's one of the most impressive streaks in recent NHL history: The Detroit Red Wings have gone to the playoffs in 21 straight seasons. In the 30-team era, it's a huge (some would even say impossible) feat that speaks to the consistency of one of the league's model franchises.
But heading into the season's final weekend, that streak is in jeopardy. After Thursday night's action, the Red Wings are still fighting for one of the final spots in the West.
As we try to wrap our heads around the prospect of witnessing our first NHL playoffs without the Detroit since 1990, let's take a look back through all 21 seasons of the streak. Here are five playoff moments that Red Wings fans will remember forever, and five more that they'd probably rather forget.

Sign Filppula?
by Paul on 04/26/13 at 12:29 PM ET
Comments (83)
In a paid subscription article, Craig Custance of ESPN had this to say about Valtteri Filppula.
Regardless of the frustrations he causes Red Wings fans at times, if Filppula goes to the open market, he'll get paid. No doubt about it. There aren't many centers hitting the market, and even fewer in his age range (29). Keep in mind that he's represented by the same agency (Acme World Sports) that got Ville Leino a six-year, $27 million contract from the Sabres in free agency.
This certainly hasn't been a contract year for Filppula, but he's just one year removed from a 23-goal, 66-point season. Considering the lackluster free-agent class, the Red Wings' cap room and even the possibility of Datsyuk leaving down the road, I think Ken Holland finds a way to get this deal done. He has to.
Agree or disagree?

Red Wings will still have to earn a point in Dallas to make the playoffs
by George Malik on 04/25/13 at 11:18 PM ET
Comments (25)
FYI: The Columbus Blue Jackets defeated the Dallas Stars 3-1 on Thursday night, so the Detroit Red Wings (23-16-and-8, 54 points, 21 regulation-or-OT wins) will have to at least earn one point in Saturday's road game against the Stars--because Columbus (23-17-and-7, 53 points, 18 ROWs) can max out at 55 points if they defeat Nashville at home.
In such a situation, Columbus would have 24 wins and a maximum of 19 regulation-or-OT wins, but even with an OT or shootout loss in Dallas, the Wings would have 21 ROWs, so they'd win the tiebreaker.
The Blue Jackets asked the Stars for a favor...

Red Wings-Predators quick take: worth the standing ovation
by George Malik on 04/25/13 at 10:18 PM ET

The Detroit Red Wings' 5-2 win over the Nashville Predators began with the team frustrating the hell out of its mostly-full rink's worth of playoff-ready fans at Joe Louis Arena and ended properly, with a standing ovation in the home finale...
And somewhere in between, despite the fact that the Columbus Blue Jackets could force the Wings to beat Dallas outright to earn a playoff spot, the Wings slowly but surely found their form, found themselves and just absolutely dismantled the Nashville Predators.

'Mr. Hockey' movie isn't just a father-and-sons story
by George Malik on 04/25/13 at 04:30 PM ET
Comments (1)
Mr. Hockey: the Gordie Howe Story will air on the CBC this Sunday at 8 PM EDT, and will air on the Hallmark Channel on Sunday, May 4th at 9 PM (before going straight-to-DVD on Tuesday, May 11th). Ahead of the film's debut, the actor playing Gordie Howe, Michael Shanks, has made the rounds discussing his role in the film, but as the movie's premiere approaches, the Canadian Press's Victoria Ahearn notes that the movie's about the partnership between Mr. and Mrs. Hockey as much as it is about the elder Howe's time spent playing for the Houston Aeros aside his sons, Mark and Marty:
"Gordie was this giant on the ice and this giant figure in the hockey world but he'd spent so much of his life devoted to that, that I think even in their later years without her he was kind of lost because she handled everything else," Vancouver actor Michael Shanks, who plays Howe in the film, said in a telephone interview.That's one of the reasons the movie is dedicated to her. It demonstrates this unsung hero, Mrs. Hockey, who was really where everything flowed back into."
"She was doing things that women just didn't do at that time," said Hamilton-born "Beverly Hills 90210" star Kathleen Robertson, who plays Colleen. "She was very involved and very influential in all the business dealings of what it was to be Gordie Howe in that time period. She was very protective of her sons, she basically negotiated their deals, she was their manager and she was really smart and really tough."

Red Wings-Kings wrap-up and Wings-Predators set-up: one down, two to go
by George Malik on 04/25/13 at 03:56 AM ET
Comments (17)
The theory goes something like this: as the Red Wings' 3-1 win over the Los Angeles Kings gives the 22-16-and-8 Wings both 52 points and 20 regulation-or-OT wins, if the Wings earn a win over the Nashville Predators tonight (7:30 PM, FSD/FS Tennessee/97.1 FM) and the Dallas Stars (48 points, 20 ROWs) defeat the Columbus Blue Jackets (51 points, 17 ROWs), the Wings will make the playoffs outright, and won't have to worry about Saturday's regular season-ending match-up with the Stars (and all three teams have 2 games left to play).
But the Red Wings don't want to count on anybody but themselves controling their playoff fate, especially playing on back-to-back nights against a spoiler-happy Predators team--possibly without the services of Johan Franzen--and especially given the way the Blue Jackets have been winng, Detroit still wants to "win out."
There's no doubt that the Wings received an assist from the NHL in the form of Dustin Brown's suspension before tanling with the Brown-less Kings, and it's Brown's suspension that the Los Angeles Times' Lisa Dillman's recap focuses upon...

This paper presents a method for implementing several high-performance math functions through polynomial approximation on the fixed-point Blackfin ADSP-BF533 architecture. We present a strategy to overcome the performance given by the Blackfin 's C library using a fast emulated floating-point format. We also discuss the methods applied to generate the polynomial approximation for the sine, logarithmic, and exponential functions, as well as the optimization schemes used to implement these functions. This work contributed to a maximum cycle reduction of 85% over the standard math library.

Taking tips, chasing leads, and solving problems
Color of nutrition label can trick us into thinking candy is healthier, study shows
Consumers are more likely to think a candy bar is healthy if the nutrition label on the front is green than if it's red or white, according to a new study.
The study, published in the journal Health Communication, shows just how easy it is to deceive consumers with marketing.
As part of the study, an assistant communication professor at Cornell University showed 93 college students an image of a candy bar with a green or red calorie label on the front of the package and asked them how healthy they thought the candy was compared with other candy bars. The participants were also asked whether they thought the candy bar had more or fewer calories than the other one.
The students thought the candy bar with the green label was healthier than the red one even though both had the same number of calories.
The professor also tried a comparison between green and white labels. The more important healthy eating was to the participants, the more they thought the white label was less healthy.
As the authors of the study point out, two leading food-industry trade organizations - the Grocery Manufacturers of America and the Food Marketing Institute - voluntarily added the front-side labels in early 2011. The labels contain calories, saturated fat, sodium and up to two nutrients that consumers should be encouraged to eat.
The intent of the front-side label was to help consumers make healthier choices. But the study suggests design and color of the front-side label may be as important as the information it conveys.
The professor behind the study suggests that the U.S. Food and Drug Adminstration take the results of the study into consideration as it considers developing a new, uniform labeling system.

Great experience on a one night weekend stop. Exactly what we wanted, easy access, clean facility, comfortable quiet room, friendly helpful staff. A good nights sleep.
Thoughtful staff allowed our grandchildren who live near Mendota to use the pool while we visited them. Good breakfast choices. We were quite happy with our stay.
The room had an intense orange cleaning product smell. Don't know what they were trying to cover up but it could not have been as bad as the cleaning product. So strong it gave me a headache

Organic farm near Parkers Prairie offers shares of its produceFor health-conscious people looking to incorporate clean, pesticide-free foods into their daily diet, Minnesota's Community Supported Agriculture (CSA) may be the answer.
For health-conscious people looking to incorporate clean, pesticide-free foods into their daily diet, Minnesota's Community Supported Agriculture (CSA) may be the answer.
Individuals now have the opportunity to buy a share of this type of produce through Ploughshare Farm, a CSA organic farm near Parkers Prairie.
Share types include the full share, which will feed a family of four who eats a mixed diet; or a family of two who follows a vegetarian diet.
The mini-share will fill the needs of a couple or a couple with a small child.
Ploughshare Farm was named Edible Twin Cities' 2009 Farm Hero of the Year because of its high quality vegetables and fruits.
"Members who buy the summer share will get seven to 12 pounds of fruits, vegetables and herbs, 10 to 15 kinds. In late summer and fall, they'll receive 25 pounds," said Gary Brever, farmowner. "The summer share runs from June 3 to September 30. All shares are delivered weekly."
Other share varieties available are the Heart of the Season share, delivered weekly from July 22 to September 2; the fall storage and the frozen winter shares.
All shares are priced separately. Members receive a 3 percent discount if they pay by check, and include Coupon Code 4565.
Ploughshare Farm delivers to drop sites in Alexandria, Fergus Falls, St. Cloud, Rogers, Augsburg College, Plymouth, South Minneapolis and St. Paul, Minnetonka, and Fargo-Moorhead.
Brever, who has farmed since 1998, started his 160-acre CSA farm in 2002.
At the beginning for several years, he sold his produce to area grocery co-ops. From their feedback, he dedicated himself to improve the quality of his fruits and vegetables.
Ploughshare Farm now sells exclusively through the CSA, ensuring that its members receive the best of the harvest, Brever said.
Individuals can sign up to buy a share/membership at Ploughshare Farm's website, www.ploughsharefarm.com; or they can call (218) 267-5117.

Hi moms! Has anyone started juice yet? My daughter just turned six months old and the doctor gave me the okay (yet somehow I want to ask here before going ahead, haha.) I know it should be diluted and no more than 4oz. a day but I still feel strange about it. For those of you who have given your babies juice.. what type of juice? How much? Also, I see that a lot of people recommend not feeding juice via bottle but a sippy cup. Seems to me like a six month old wouldn't get it. Any info would be helpful. Thanks! :)
Juice yet?

I started to put diluted apple juice in LO's sippy cup at 6 mos. It's more of a chew toy and a drumstick for him right now. We're just starting on the sippy cup thing and he does ok with it. Every once in a while he actually suck on the spout instead of chewing and he'll get some juice. He's not always a fan, but I refuse to put milk in it, which will help with weaning later on. I'm pretty laid back about the sippy cup, I just give it to him when he just ate his meals and I'm cleaning up. But I guess alot of moms are doing more with it right now. GL!

I had to start giving Sophie some juice bc she was wayyy constipated, now I just give her like 2 oz a day to keep her regulated and its worked like a charm. We started in the bottle, bc i didn't want to totally overwhelm her with a new drinking apparatus AND a new beverage, but now I try to do it in the sippy cup. We found one that uses a soft nipple much like her bottle, like a transition type cup. Andshe drinks apple-prune. She actually is not a huge fan of apple, but this stuff she really likes.
Good luck!

The handout my doctor gave us at the 6 month appt said it's ok to give juice but when I asked her what kinds she said she wouldn't give her juice - it's all sugar anyway. She said to just give her water instead. So that's what I'm gonna do for now. Still waiting till she can sit up on her own to give her water in a sippy cup.
Thanks for answering everyone :)

He uses it more as a chew toy than drinking from it but Dr. said to use the sippy cup so he can practice. If he is really thirsty he will drink the juice. I give him juice around 3 pm as a snack along with 2 tablespoons of cereal.

I give it to him 2oz dilute with 2oz of water twice a day (total 4oz of juice per day). I usually give it to him when he's eating cereal.
Introduce juice like any other food, try one type of juice for 3-4 days no other new foods.
He drinks the juice (and water) from the sippy cup (we tried several sippy cups until we found one that has a very soft spout that he likes).

We just introduced juice today to help keep her regular (darn those bananas!). She had 1 oz water and 1 oz 100% prune juice in a bottle. Day care said she LOVED it and completely flipped out when it was all gone.
Now that we know it's a hit, we'll try it in the sippy cup tomorrow. Maybe it'll motivate her to actually use the sippy cup instead of just playing with it.

I just started giving my LO motts for tots. She can have 4oz a day, total. She really only drinks about 2oz.
She also has watter in her sippie cup, about 2-3 oz.
