This article from Presidential Debate News summarizes what has been said on several important television public affairs programs recently, about the Commission on Presidential Debates and its exclusionary rule on who gets invited to debate.
Chuck Sweeny Says Fox Republican Presidential Debate is Flawed
Chuck Sweeny, senior political editor for the Rockford (Illinois) Register Star, writes here that the August 6 Fox Republican presidential debate is badly planned. The top ten Republicans, based on polls, will participate.
Sweeny says that instead, Fox News should hold two debates, each with eight candidates. Random procedures should be used to determine which eight candidates are in each debate. To make the two debates equal in viewership, they should both be in the evening, so that would probably involve debates on two different evenings (Sweeny doesn't say this but it seems to follow from what he does say). Sweeny says many polls only have 300 or so respondents and the Fox News decision is not only unfair, it is arbitrary because there continues to be a virtual tie for tenth place and also ninth place.
Pennsylvania Supreme Court Reverses Lower Courts and Puts a Local Initiative on the Ballot
On July 20, the Pennsylvania Supreme Court issued an opinion in Petition to Submit Ballot Question to Concord Township Voters, no. 126 MAP 2014. The issue was how to construe a Pennsylvania election law that governs local initiative petitions for a second class township to consider switching to first class township status.
The initiative petition had enough valid signatures, but it was rejected on the grounds that it was not filed in the correct year. The petition was submitted in 2014 by some voters in Concord, a township in Delaware County.
The law says, "At the first general or municipal election occurring, at least 90 days after the ascertainment that any township of the second class has a population density of at least 300 inhabitants to the square mile, and after a petition signed by at least 5% of the registered voters of the township has been filed, the question of whether such township of the second class shall become a township of the first class shall be submitted to the voters."
The lower state courts had interpreted this law to mean that such a petition can only be filed in the first year after the census results are known, which would have been 2012. The proponents of the initiative read the law to mean that the election should be held as soon as the population data is known and as soon as an initiative petition has been submitted. The Supreme Court agreed with the latter interpretation by a vote of 3-2.
Here is the dissent, which believes that the last time that law was revised, the drafters made a drafting error involving commas.
Donald Trump Has Had Four Partisan Affiliations
According to the New York City Board of Elections, Donald Trump registered in 1992 as a Republican. He remained a Republican until 1999, when he registered into the Independence Party. At the time, the Independence Party was the New York state affiliate of the Reform Party, and Trump briefly considered seeking the Reform Party's nomination for president in 2000.
In 2001 he registered into the Democratic Party. In 2009 he registered back into the Republican Party. In 2011 he became an independent, but in 2012 he rejoined the Republican Party.
Washington Post Article Highlights Absurdity of U.S. Policy of Denying Vote to Residents of Territories
This Washington Post story says thousands of Puerto Ricans have been moving to Florida lately, because the economy in Puerto Rice is bad. An accidental byproduct is that as soon as they have lived in Florida for a month, with the intention of remaining, they are free to register to vote. Then they can vote for President and Congress, whereas as long as they lived in Puerto Rico, they could not.
All of the other nations with overseas possessions, except Great Britain, lets residents of their overseas possessions vote in national elections. Those countries are France, Netherlands, Denmark, and Spain. Thanks to Michael Drucker for the link.
Ralph Nader Slams Huffington Post for Policy of Not Covering Donald Trump in its Political News
Ralph Nader has this op-ed in the New York Daily News. Nader's general point is that mainstream news media do a terrible job of covering candidates. His column is specifically triggered by the Huffington Post's policy of not covering Donald Trump in its political news, but instead in its entertainment news. Nader's piece also criticizes the Commission on Presidential Debates.

Not all genetic defects can be detected at this point in science, so a plaintiff win could have disastrous consequences for sperm banks...
Perhaps the court will award restitution and put the plaintiff back in the position of an unfertilized egg.
Ahhh, Nurse Ratched, I am ready to make my deposit now.
So if I owned a sperm bank Id add 100 new tests and raise rates 10x and have everyone sign a 100-page risk factors/waiver form with a specific choice of law clause. Next, of course, the disgruntled natural children and divorced spouses will start suing the parents and the ex-spouses; no reason to limit this growth area in litigation to sperm banks.
What are the plaintiff's damages? She would not have existed at all without the sperm; it seems she can assert no damages unless the court concludes that her life has a negative net value-- i.e., that she would literally have been better off never having existed, which would have all kinds of interesting legal and philosophical implications.
It already costs around $400 per vial of sperm (eight vials on average are obtainable per ejaculate) and the average sperm donor (not a prolific one) nets a sperm bank around $500,000. Many sperm donors can bring profits in excess of a million dollars to a sperm bank. So it is not unreasonable that sperm banks start spending a little money on genetic tests. The retail price for a fragile X test is $62 but I daresay that a sperm bank could buy the test for under $20. At the moment it is rare to find a sperm bank that tests for more than CF. The statistics are shocking. A much higher percentage of genetically ill children are born from sperm donation than natural conception. With reasonable screening i should be the reverse.
nice, really nice!
Hmmm. If I meet a guy who has no visible genetic defects, and I conceive a child by him, I can sue him for child support. If I buy sperm, I have to support the child by myself. I would suppose that I would want to reduce my chances of having a "special needs" child in the case of purchased sperm even more than I would in the case of shared responsibility with my selected mate. A male carrier of fragile X will have more symptoms than a female who also has a normal X chomosome. Chances are that if I had met the fragile X male and spoke to him, I would have picked up on the fact that maybe he should not father my children. All the more reason why the sperm banks need to do careful screening or risk this type of lawsuit.

I was thoroughly impressed with your service. All items were packaged well and were delivered when requested. It was great to have fresh fruit, snacks and drinks in our room during our Disney World vacation! Amy from Texas
My husband and I traveled to Disney World with our 6 year old son for ten days.I knew that we would eat out alot but still wanted some groceries on hand for times in between. Garden Grocer made that happen with ease.
We have used Garden Grocer several times and you can't beat the convenience and high quality service they provide. I will always use them instead of taking up precious vacation time to go food shopping!

Banned for Life Bulgarian Top Sprinter Naimova Goes Political
Bulgarian sprinter Tezdzhan Naimova, who was imposed a life-long ban after her second doping offense was confirmed last year, has joined a new and controversial political project.
In an interview, circulated to the media, Naimova announced she has joined the populist party "Bulgaria without Censorship", founded and led by controversial former TV host, Nikolay Barekov.
"It all began with a phone call by Nikolay Barekov, who invited me to attend the founding forum of the party in the city of Veliko Tarnovo. The decisive factor for me was the trust that he has in me, even without knowing me personally," Naimova shared.
"I want to see Bulgaria changed. As an athelete I know one has to work hard to achieve one's goals."
At the end of October last year Tezdzhan Naimova was stripped of her European indoor champion title and imposed a life-long ban after her second doping offense.
International Association of Athletics Federations upheld the decision to this effect, which Bulgaria's athletics federation had taken in the middle of September.
Naimova was temporarily suspended at the beginning of June after testing positive for taking anabolic steroid Drostanolone at the European indoor championship in Gothenburg in March.
After reviewing the case, the Bulgarian athletics federation confirmed on September 17 the charges, imposing a life ban.
Naimova has been widely regarded as one of Bulgaria's most promising athletes.
Bulgaria's Tezdzhan Naimova won the women's 60 race at the European Indoor Athletics Championships in Gothenburg, Sweden, in 7.10 seconds, nosing out Mariya Ryemyen of Ukraine.
France's Myriam Soumare was third, while Bulgaria's Ivet Lalova ranked fourth.
At the beginning of 2009 Tezdzhan Naimova was banned for two years for manipulating a doping sample.

Bravo, Naimova! You cheated over the years successfully before being caught - of course with your credentials as a crook and cheat, you are the perfect candidate for the next parliamentary elections! Therefore your step is just consequent. I am wondering if you will become Minister of Sports or Minister of Health in the next Bulgarian government...Welcome to the nuthouse called Bulgaria!

Alessandro Benetton is on a mission to find a cure for the ailing global economy and he's asking 100 million or so jobless young people to pitch in.
The 48-year-old chairman of Benetton Group launched the family business's latest "UNHATE" advertising campaign on Tuesday, highlighting the plight of unemployed people under 30 who are striving to find meaningful work every day.
"In this case there will be a contest. It will be a contest done on the web, where these young people, 19-30 which is 100 million people, can subscribe and be entitled to either propose a project, which can be an entrepreneurial project, a project for the society, for the country, town," the slender scion of one of s best known family retail brands told Reuters.
The ads and video which show determined young people at protests, in work attire waiting for interviews or at the unemployment office are bound to be less controversial than Benetton's last campaign.
Benetton's advertisement depicting Pope Benedict kissing an imam on the lips resulted in the company agreeing in May to make a donation to a Catholic charity.
The latest global campaign will consist of posters, t-shirts, a film and a contest to choose 100 "unemployees of the year" who will each receive 5,000 euros ($6,600) for their pet projects.
Contestants must be between 18 and 30 years old and unemployed. They must submit their story and project idea to www.unhatefoundation.org and will be chosen by an online poll of their peers on the same site.

Still no fingerprint scanner? Come on! It's almost 2016 and especially with Android M on the way with native fingerprint support you would think they would future proof it. Also make the dang phone thinner!! Motorola is still using an original 2013 design with only minor differences. While I love stock Android for once I think I will go with the galaxy s6 edge for my upgrade next month. Also I've had iPhone since the iPhone 4 and am definitely switching because iOS 9 brought minimal new features that android already had.

Not all of them are the same. Some have whatever the remains of old Imperial or Nationalist blood. Some have experienced a century of British administration. Loyal, unlike some other Crown subjects.

Apple does listen to their customers what they wanted. Did you know they asked early iPhone 5 buyers what they want most. 2 years later up to 2014, they got what they asked for. Bazing!!

Guys, let's hope Apple makes a thinner version or make the bezel take advantage of it like touch the area where the switch is to activate mute/silence which switches it. Just an idea. If we can spread the word, maybe Apple can get this idea and everybody is happy.

I went there during October 2013 for a holiday getaway. It's a good budget hotel, not to expect much but nice quiet comfy place to rest in. Very near from the beach. good hospitality, good behavior, good stuff. Not very professional though.
Upon checking in on 31/05/15 till out on 03/06/15, lift was out of order. We, a group of six couples in our fifties n sixties, daily have to climb the stairs with heavy luggages, worst when we checked out for this is our purpose of coming to Langkawi. Housekeeping was upon request despite the standard n room charges unlike other...
i stayed here for 4 days and 3 nights.The room was not packed a days.The pool is very bad, small & messy.Elevator damaged.Other residents making noise and very not customer friendly.The stairs and corridors are a danger to children.
We stayed for 4 nights and the stay was comfortable and memorable. The rooms are well maintained. The hotel is in the busy market area with the duty free shopping mall just opposite to it and the night market just a few blocks ahead. Different restaurants and the Mc Donalds is also nearby so its really easy to stuff oneself....
I was pleasantly surprised at the quality of this establishment. The rooms was spacious, nice and well equiped. Most importantly, the location was strategic, easy access to shops, restaturant and Chenang Beach.
I stayed here for 2 nights with my family at their suite. The view is really because you can see the beach and the scenery of pantai cenang from your room but the suite is quite small and nothing great about it.

we stayed here 2 nights..the pool is very bad i dont think it should be operational. The room was spacious and both the room and toilet was very basic. The a/c did not work well, they do not provide any breakfast. its about 5-10 min walk to the beach, hence it has no great views. Its not value for money...

I stayed there for only one night but it was enough to know that we will never stay there again. Not even for free! I know, it's cheap. But, believe me, you will get an unpleasant stay. Dirty, completely outdated, smelly, nothing really god to mention.
I don't know for the rooms but we had a little cabin near the pool. It was really disappointing. Sheets were dirty, spider web on the wall, lot of dust behind the bed, tv signal very bad, wi-fi in the room so so, no phone, no water bottles (only place out of 10 we didn't have any water bottles), service...

Ghana's mixed fortune as a dumping ground for e-waste
11 Jul 2003 18:29 GMT
The Truman Presidential Museum and Library in Missouri said on Friday the remarks were on three loose sheets of paper which were found by staff as they reshelved books.
"The Jews, I find are very, very selfish. They care not how many Estonians, Latvians, Finns, Poles, Yugoslavs or Greeks get murdered or mistreated as (displaced persons) as long as the Jews get special treatment," Truman wrote on July 21, 1947 in his journal.
"Yet when they have power, physical, financial or political, neither (Adolf) Hitler nor (Joseph) Stalin has anything on them for cruelty or mistreatment to the underdog," he wrote.
The Truman Library said the former president made the remarks during a meeting with Henry Morgenthau, a Jewish former treasury secretary who served under Truman's predecessor, Franklin Roosevelt.
The Washington Post reported Morgenthau asked to speak with Truman when European Jews who were fleeing Nazi genocide were refused entry into British-controlled Palestine.
"He'd no business, whatever to call me. The Jews have no sense of proportion nor do they have any judgment on world affairs," Truman wrote.
"Henry brought a thousand Jews to New York on a supposedly temporary basis and they stayed," he added in the journal entry.

Educators see creationism ploy in Indiana senator's bill
An Indiana senator is pushing a proposal that would require science teachers to provide evidence of what is being taught when students challenge the truth of it.
But educators say it's a ploy to bring religion — aka, creationism — into the classroom.
"This one's fairly new," Gerry Wheeler, executive director of the National Science Teachers Association, told the Indianapolis Star. "This is a creative new evolution that the creationists are going to."
Sponsoring Sen. Dennis Kruse, Republican chairman of the Senate Education Committee, was behind a failed attempt last year to allow Indiana schools to teach creationism alongside evolution. He says his "truth in education" proposal is a different approach from last year. "It won't mention religion. It won't mention creation. It will just basically try to establish truth in our public schools."
The website God Discussion says the effect of the new measure would be the same. "While the bill will not mention religion, deity or doctrine, it will allow students to challenge the science of evolution and force teachers to prove its validity. This will no doubt thrust creationism into the argument, forcing a discussion of religion in the public classroom."
Under the headline "Prospective anti-evolution bill mutates in Indiana," the National Center for Science Education said the bill was "drafted by the Discovery Institute, presumably along the lines of the bills enacted in Tennessee in 2012 and Louisiana in 2008, encouraging teachers to misrepresent evolution as controversial."
It may not be controversial to science teachers, but for politicians a bad answer to a question about evolution can be near-fatal. A report on CNN Wednesday said Republican Sen. Marco Rubio of Florida attempted to clear up his controversial answer to a question about the earth's age last month — a response that was largely interpreted as a chink in the political armor of the possible GOP presidential contender in 2016.
"Science says (the earth) is about 4.5 billion years old. My faith teaches that's not inconsistent," Rubio said at a Politico Playbook Breakfast in Washington. "God created the heavens and the earth, and science has given us insight into when he did it and how he did it."
"The more science learns," he continued, "the more I am convinced that God is real."
TheAssociated Press reported that Josh Youngkin, program officer for public policy and legal affairs for the Seattle-based Discovery Institute, is helping Kruse and lawmakers in other states promote the measure. He said approaching the issue as an academic freedom proposal gets around constitutional questions. He cited a 1987 Supreme Court decision that found teaching creationism on a parallel footing with evolution constituted a violation of the First Amendment's establishment clause.
"It frees teachers to teach both sides of scientific controversies in an objective fashion," said Youngkin. "The teacher would not be barred from saying 'Let's look at both sides of the evidence, and you guys can basically make a judgment,' rather than just accepting passively or memorizing by rote these facts and stating back these arguments on a test which would eventually determine where you go to college."
Some educators and lawmakers, even if they oppose the measure, say Kruse's bill won't do much but add to the "myriad of hoops that teachers have to jump through now that take away from actual instruction."
Democratic Sen. Tim Skinner told Think Progress that students don't need to be told by lawmakers to ask questions.
"If Senator Kruse had education experience he would know that students across the country are already doing that every day in the public school classroom," Skinner says. "They question everything, and I think a teacher who's actually doing their job will answer those questions."
Rep. Bob Behning, Republican chairman of the House Education Committee, told the Star that the bill was too vague and he wasn't interested in pursuing it.
The Huffington Post offered some helpful historical context.
"Creationism legislation has been on the rise nationally in the last year, with Tennessee passing a bill similar to Kruse's proposal, and several other states also proposing (though failing to pass) bills to teach creationism. Louisiana passed a 'truth in education' bill in 2008. Earlier this year, former New Hampshire state Rep. Jerry Bergevin, R-Manchester, suggested that the teaching of evolution led to the Columbine massacre and the rise of the Nazi Party. Bergevin left office Wednesday after losing a bid for a second term. New Hampshire lawmakers overrode Democratic Gov. John Lynch's veto earlier this year of a bill that would allow parents to object to any part of the school curriculum and allow the teaching of an alternate curriculum."

- Greg Ostendorf, ESPN Staff Writer
PRICHARD, Ala. -- When it came time to make a decision, Vigor defensive end Justin Thornton was having second thoughts. The ESPN 150 prospect considered pushing his announcement back to the original date in August.
However, he told Recruiting Nation on Thursday that he's ready to go through with it and plans to announce his decision at 10 a.m. CT Sunday at his church.
"I just want to close to the door," Thornton said. "There's a lot on me. I'm going through it for the first time, and I don't know how to deal with it. I took my visits and I liked everything I saw. If I commit, I can focus more on my grades."
"I've kind of let it get to my head, but I'm going to change that and get to my old ways."
The decision will come down to a trio of SEC West teams -- Auburn, LSU and Texas A&M. Vigor coach Ashley Johnson said making a choice has been tough on Thornton, as all three teams have made a great impression.
"Everybody likes him," Johnson said. "They're all great programs. I think he goes and visits one, they talk to him, he visualizes himself there and thinks this is where I want to be, but then two weeks later, the same thing happens.
"He looks like a grown man, but he's just a kid still. It's a difficult decision for anybody to make, especially someone his age. I wouldn't want to put myself in his shoes."
Thornton visited Auburn this past weekend. The Tigers just picked up a commitment Wednesday from ESPN 150 linebacker Tre Williams, another Mobile product, and they also have a commitment from Thornton's high school teammate, linebacker Deshaun Davis.
"The visit went well," Thornton said. "I love their environment. It makes me feel comfortable. Auburn treats me like family. The new coaches are nice. I love them. I love them all. [Davis] says I need to get my butt up there."
Thornton grew up watching LSU and wanting to play for their defense, so it's no surprise the Tigers cracked the top three.
"I love their defense, love the coaches, love the environment, love the program," he said.
The third finalist, Texas A&M, emerged late in the process. Thornton recently visited College Station, and he liked what he saw and what he heard from the coaches. Also, his father lives not far from the campus.
"It went well," Thornton said. "Everything is nice. That's why I put them in my top three because they told me some good stuff, and I can believe them. I trust them. They told me I need to come up there because they've got a good spot for me, playing defensive end. They need defensive ends. And they've got a good environment."
It's safe to say that Thornton will choose an SEC school. Why the SEC?
"That's where the big boys play," he said.

Silvana was very welcoming. My partner and I ended up arriving a lot sooner than expected and she was very kind in letting us put out bags down so that we could sightsee sooner! She also allowed us to keep our belongings in the room a bit past check-out so we were able to see the Art Museum sans luggage.
Her dog is very shy and rarely barks. We were actually surprised at how quite she was.
Excellent experience. Silvana was incredibly accommodating and friendly. The room had air conditioning and was extremely comfortable.
Place is cluttered and not very clean. Also has bed bugs:(
Host is pleasant and communicative.
Neighborhood and location is great.
Bathroom shared by several other guests which is not clear in description.
Silvana was very nice and welcoming, and her dog was very cute. She really did her best to make our schedule work. I really appreciated that she left maps of the city in our room for our convenience. The house is in a great neighborhood and was comfy. It was a little cluttered, but definitely a good value.
Silvana made us feel like being at home. She offered useful information about the city once we arrived. The room is as described. We had a very pleasant stay at the place!
Hôte très réactive. Appartement bien placé et à proximité des bus.
Quartier sympathique avec bars et restaurants. Tout proche des musées.
Seul bémol : chambre un peu chargée (beaucoup de meubles!)
Excellent host. Silvana greeted us and made us feel welcome. The room was clean and comfortable, with a good location for accessing museums and eateries. The room had character and was a comfortable place to stay. Would definitely recommend.

The International Supercomputing Conference is taking place in Hamburg, Germany this week, and Intel is there drumming up hype for its upcoming many-integrated-core (MIC) products. As you might already know, Intel's MIC efforts were born out of the ashes of the failed Larrabee project. Intel is shipping Knights Ferry MIC prototypes—essentially Larrabee silicon repurporsed for high-performance computing—to select partners in preparation for the debut of its first real MIC product, Knights Corner. Intel will base Knights Corner on the same 22-nm fab process as its next-gen Ivy Bridge microprocessors.
Intel says some of its partners at the conference showed early performance results obtained with Knights Ferry. Those partners include Forschungszentrum Juelich, CERN, the Korea Institute of Science and Technology Information, and the Leibniz Supercomputing Centre, which contributed a juicy quote for the press release:
"The programming model advantage of Intel MIC architecture enabled us to quickly scale our applications running on Intel Xeon processors to the Knights Ferry Software Development Platform," said Prof. Arndt Bode of the Leibniz Supercomputing Centre. "This workload was originally developed and optimized for Intel Xeon processors but due to the familiarity of the programming model we could optimize the code for the Intel MIC architecture within hours and also achieved over 650 GFLOPS of performance."
The appeal of Knights Ferry and Knights Corner is that they're based on Intel's existing x86 architecture—unlike GPU computing gear from AMD and Nvidia.
According to HPC Wire, Intel's Anthony Neal-Graves revealed more details during a press briefing last week. Reportedly, the 32-core Knights Ferry development prototype achieves a teraFLOP of floating-point computing performance in the SGEMM benchmark. HPC Wire expects Knights Corner to pack 50 or more cores when it arrives next year, which should allow it to "easily double" that level performance. (For what it's worth, the site notes that Nvidia's fastest Tesla product "probably" hits around 800-900 gigaFLOPS in the same benchmark, while AMD's quickest FireStream achieves "perhaps twice that.")
Intel says it's working with SGI, Dell, HP, IBM, Colfax and Supermicro to deliver servers based on Knights Corner hardware. We can't confidently predict how things will shake out between Knights Ferry and next-gen AMD and Nvidia GPUs, but at the very least, Intel looks set to give the Tesla and FireStream lines some real competition.

AN APOLOGY to a young mum asked not to breastfeed at a public pool was not enough.
That is the view of more than 30 mothers who plan to protest on Saturday outside a council-owned pool.
Liana Webster, 26, said she was humiliated and in tears after being asked to stop breastfeeding her youngest child at the side of the public pool while she was watching her other youngsters swimming.
Liana Webster, 26, was visiting Bribie Island Aquatic Centre, run by the Moreton Bay Council, with her three children.
Ms Webster said she was left embarrassed and ashamed when told by an employee she was not allowed to breastfeed while sitting alongside the pool.
A council spokeswoman apologised yesterday for the incident.
Ms Webster said she was told to move to the baby change room or to a more secluded area and to cover herself.
"I said that telling me to stop feeding was illegal, but the staff member insisted that it wasn't," she said.
"I was told I was offending other patrons."
Ms Webster said the incident made her cry due to the embarrassment of being told in front of her children.
"My boys are five and six," she said.
"They heard everything that was going on and they asked me why I was upset.
"We were at a pool where people were showing skin in all kinds of directions. It made me feel as though I was doing something I should be ashamed of."
Ms Webster said she asked for a refund as the family had to leave, but was refused.
More than 7000 people shared Ms Webster's Facebook posts about the incident.
Since then Ms Webster has started an open Facebook group inviting mothers to a nurse-in at the pool on Saturday.
"Anti-discrimination laws were broken and I was left publicly humiliated," Ms Webster said.
"I have organised this nurse-in to spread the word to as many people as possible that no matter what your opinion is, breastfeeding in public is not illegal."
Dr Maya Griffiths, from the Australian Breastfeeding Association, said under federal law breastfeeding was a right.
A Moreton Bay Regional Council spokeswoman said staff at the Bribie Island Aquatic Leisure Centre had received a complaint about a mother breastfeeding in the pool from a family also in the pool.
"Moreton Bay Regional Council regrets any distress caused to the mother or her family, and staff have been made aware of the relevant legislation in this area," the spokeswoman said.
A Sunshine Coast Council spokesman said the council had no policies, protocols or local laws preventing a mother from breastfeeding in council venues, facilities or on community land, unless it was a safety risk.
The breastfeeding bare facts:
Under Australian Federal law, breastfeeding is a right, not a privilege.
Under the Federal Sex Discrimination Act 1984 it is illegal in Australia to discriminate against a person either directly or indirectly on the grounds of breastfeeding.
In Queensland, breastfeeding discrimination is explicitly illegal.

I know, I know, I know. It's winter. Pumpkin recipes are usually best left for fall. But you see, this past fall, I stocked up on canned pumpkin and actually made a lot less pumpkin dishes than I anticipated making. So alas, here it is January and I find myself with a whole lotta pumpkin. So what's a girl to do? I've had my fill of pumpkin pie, pumpkin cookies, pumpkin bread and pumpkin muffins so the next logical thing, in my mind anyway, was to make pumpkin soup. Velvety, luscious, pumpkin soup with a bit of spice from red curry and a touch of sweetness from coconut milk to be more exact.
I actually got this idea from a friend. She tried a curried pumpkin soup at a local restaurant and raved and raved about how good it was. I told her that I would try to make it and put it on the blog. This was a couple months ago, you know, back when pumpkin dishes were all the rage. But not one to go back on my word, I did make this soup and now after I've made it I am beginning to wish that I had bought even more pumpkin.
A juicy cheese burger topped with whiskey caramelized mushrooms, onions and soft and creamy Dubliner cheese.
Everyone's favorite theme park treat gets turned into a popcorn snack with this churro popcorn loaded with cinnamon, sugar and white chocolate.
These quick and spicy pickled onions are all kinds of easy and all kinds of delicious. I love putting them on tacos, nachos, taco salads and I've even been known to just snack on them. They are super yummy, friends, but then again you know I love anything spicy. And speaking of all things spicy, […]
If you like peanut butter and chocolate you are going to love this Nutter Butter Fudge Swirl Ice Cream.
Flat iron steak is marinated with fresh oregano, olive oil, vinegar and garlic and then grilled to perfection.
Tomatoes, garlic, olive and salt are all that top this bruschetta and it is divine.

Yield: 24 single-serving cakes
Serves: 24
Advertisement - Continue Reading Below
- 2.25 c. flour
- 1 tsp. baking soda
- 0.50 tsp. salt
- 1 tsp. ground cardamom
- 2 eggs
- 1.50 c. sugar
- 1.50 tsp. vanilla extract
- 1 c. applesauce
- 0.50 c. butter
- 2 tbsp. butter, melted
- 0.50 c. sour cream
- 1.50 tsp. lemon zest
- 1.50 c. peeled and chopped Granny Smith apple
- 1.25 c. confectioners' sugar
- 3 tbsp. apple cider
- Heat oven to 400 degrees F. Butter and flour 24 3 1/2-ounce cake molds or 2 12-cup cupcake tins and set aside.
- Sift the flour, baking soda, salt, and cardamom together and set aside.
- Beat the eggs and sugar together, using a mixer set on medium-high speed, until the mixture forms a thick ribbon when the beaters are lifted from the bowl. Reduce speed to low and mix in the vanilla and applesauce. Add 1/2 cup of the melted butter, sour cream, and zest and beat until combined. Gradually add the flour mixture and mix until smooth.
- Fold in the apples and divide the batter among the prepared molds (about 1/4 cup per mold). Bake until a skewer inserted in the center of the cake tests clean -- 20 to 25 minutes.

- Stir the remaining melted butter, confectioners' sugar, and apple cider together in a medium bowl until smooth and drizzle over the cooled cakes and let the icing set before serving.

Cobalt Technologies, Inc. signed an exclusive global cooperation and supply agreement with ANDRITZ Inc., the U.S. subsidiary of international technology Group ANDRITZ, to integrate Cobalt's proprietary lignocellulosic pre-treatment process for the production of n-butanol with ANDRITZ's customized pre-treatment systems.
The primary alcohol, n-butanol is a widely used industrial chemical found in paints, lacquers, and other surface coatings. It has traditionally been produced from fossil fuels. Engineered to achieve low production costs, Cobalt's technology naturally converts both C5 and C6 sugars into bio-butanol, using any non-food lignocellulosic, renewable and sustainable feed-stock. The bio-butanol can be used for a broad array of fuels and chemicals -- including jet fuels, bio-based plastics, and synthetic rubber.
Combining Cobalt's proprietary process expertise with ANDRITZ's extensive experience in designing and supplying biomass processing systems will provide the market place a solution for developing reliable, efficient, and cost-effective production facilities.
"We are excited to combine our pre-treatment and fermentation technology with ANDRITZ's technology, engineering, and project management skills for implementing large-scale biomass facilities," says Bob Mayer, CEO of Cobalt Technologies. "Plus, our combined testing and pilot plant capabilities will enable us to evaluate and scale a wide range of biomass materials from feedstock-to-butanol for our strategic partners, giving them the highest level of support and assurance."
ANDRITZ supplies advanced pre-treatment technologies for biofuel production. These technologies are well-proven in other industrial processes and, through extensive R&D, have been modified by ANDRITZ to satisfy the requirements for biofuel and biochemical producers.
"We have worked extensively with Cobalt to develop commercially attractive and technically unique solutions," says Bertil Stromberg, Vice President of ANDRITZ's BioRefinery Division. "This partnership has clear advantages for the market and will provide excellent results for our customers and partners."
Cobalt Technologies
Cobalt Technologies is a leader in commercializing the production of bio n-butanol as a renewable chemical and fuel. N-butanol is a widely used industrial chemical found in paints, lacquers and other surface coatings, with a global market of over $5 billion. Cobalt is making biobutanol and its derivatives a cost-effective substitute to petroleum-based chemical products with the advantages of it being produced from a renewable and sustainable feedstock source.
Cobalt is based in Mountain View, CA and is backed by leading investors in the cleantech sector, including Pinnacle Ventures, Malaysian Life Sciences Capital Fund, VantagePoint Capital Partners, Parsons & Whittemore, Life Sciences Partners (LSP), @Ventures, Harris & Harris, Burrill and Company and strategic investors including Bunge Global Innovation, LLC.

"Did not work on Win 8.1"
Version: Ashampoo Snap 8.0.4
Ashampoo refunded my purchase.
Program installed, ran, but was unusable. It would not allow even a simple clip from (for example) a web page. Support made a very half-hearted effort to solve the issue, but nothing they suggested helped. I'll keep looking for a better program.
Caveat emptor. Reviews of SNAP 8 seem good, but my experience shows it to be very flawed and difficult/impossible to use.

Bruised and battered, Shane Victorino plans to start Game 6
Nov 3, 2009, 1:12 PM EDT
Shane Victorino's right hand was bruised and swollen after being plunked by a 93-mph A.J. Burnett fastball in the first inning last night and he played the next seven innings in obvious pain before Ben Francisco finally replaced him.
Victorino was clearly having trouble gripping the bat and making throws from the outfield, constantly grimacing and shaking his hand, but despite how bad the injury looked X-rays on his index finger came back negative and the Phillies' center fielder plans to start Game 6.
Francisco would likely draw the Game 6 assignment in center field if Victorino ultimately can't go. He's a capable hitter, particularly against left-handers like Yankees starter Andy Pettitte, but the defensive dropoff from Victorino to Francisco is huge.
In other words, today's break in the schedule comes at a good time for the Phillies if it gives Victorino a chance to get reasonably healthy.

Philly's is trouble, you need that finger to throw and bat, sometimes
bad sprains or contusions are worse than breaks.
- Frank C Pensabene - Nov 3, 2009 at 2:10 PM
Why was it called hit by a pitch. He tried to bunt and got hit. It should have been called a strike

How dare you question the umpires Frank! PHILLIES IN SEVEN!!! MARK MY WORDS!!!

Phillies in seven ?….yeah seven years from now…..
- george warren - Nov 3, 2009 at 3:05 PM
what idiot, thinks that was an attempt– their coaching staff did not even challenge it- Burnett was out of control, and even apologized to victorino– what game were you watching, I guess your a typical yakee fan. So far its a good series, get a clue.
- J Myers - Nov 3, 2009 at 3:21 PM
amen to that. just more of the worst umpiring ever.
- Paulio - Nov 3, 2009 at 4:30 PM
This is entirely wrong, as many others have pointed out. FOX even played the audio of comments from the home plate umpire meeting with Girardi after the incident. The ump stated that because it was an inside pitch he couldn't be sure if Victorino presented to bunt, so he immediately checked with the third base ump. Negative. Replays confirmed it. It was ruled HBP all the way, as it should have been.
- Ditto - Nov 3, 2009 at 5:42 PM
The real issue is playing your injured center fielder in the most important game of the season – the last. Batting will be copromised. Fielding will be compromised.
And, last but least ("not" intentionally omitted), John's prediction will be compromised. YANKEES IN SIX!!! MARK MY WORDS!!!
- John - Nov 4, 2009 at 1:12 AM
Hey that's my line Ditto, minus the words "YANKEES" & "SIX" of course but it could be considered plagiarism nonetheless! Damn it I knew I should've taken out a copyright on that! PHILLIES IN SEVEN!!! MARK MY WORDS!!!
- Old Gator - Nov 4, 2009 at 5:38 AM
If Anton Chighur can play hurt, so can Shane Victorino, whose name is no less ridiculous.
