Paintings by Phil HaleJuxtapoz // Friday, August 15, 2014
London-based painter Phil Hale's "current work focuses on figure as well, in depictions of slightly surreal scenes with strange characters performing various physical feats, usually in a confrontation of some sort. He seems to take keen interest in tension and emphasis of angular and dynamic aspects of the figure, almost always incorporating slight anatomical distortions to great effect."

From 2006 to 2012, photographer Adrian Chesser photographed the current generation of nomadic Americans who have chosen to live their lives in the wild unknown between Idaho and California. Chesser captured the high and lows of a group who primarily use their basic instincts of hunter/gatherer to survive and move with the seasons as they see fit.

Apparently True Fire isin't the only company that likes to hide Easter Eggs!
From my email:
"OK, the first thing we're doing as cool stuff for Easter. I love Easter because as a kid it represented Spring is really here and Summer is around the corner. So to celebrate this we've hidden some Easter Eggs throughout our website catalinbread.com. If you find one, click it cause there are special offers within! If it is an offer that interests you don't hesitate to act cause this is only for a limited time!!!! As in no more after Tuesday, April 12th. Yeah. And have fun like a kid would, please! It is easy as clicking around http://www.catalinbread.com and looking for the EGGS we've hidden through out the website!"
So I scrolled around the site and at first I didn't notice them. I found one and voila....a recipe for Hos an feffer (rabbit stew). Not what I was expecting I thought about it a minute and went to the specs of the one pedal I wanted. I found an egg and suprise....I picked up a Naga Viper for $115.00 (regular $169.00). So if you are interested in Catalinbread pedals give them a look. The DLS (Dirty Little Secret) is very popular. I have been looking for a Diaz Texas Ranger for awhile. I had one and in a moment of need (yes, I needed a POG) I sold it to fund another gear purchase. I have missed it ever since. The Naga Viper is supposed to be the same circut as the original Dallas Rangemaster (a famous treble boost pedal) with a few improvements. I hope it lives up to my expectations.....

Jason Segel and Michelle Williams Buy a Brooklyn Loft
Hands down the cutest couple of the year (or possibly the decade), Michelle Williams and Jason Segel have reportedly taken their relationship to the next level. According to UK's the Daily Mail, those adorable hipster love muffins are making a home together in a huge Brooklyn loft they purchased a few months ago. First comes love, then comes escrow?
Insiders say Jason and Michelle have been living together for a while, first in the brownstone Michelle shared with Heath Ledger (which is now estimated to be worth over $4 million). With this new loft, it seems Michelle is finally ready to start a new chapter with Jason.
Their new place, which is in a converted warehouse, has an enviable view of the Manhattan skyline and a gated yard for privacy.

Improved solar cells, nanotechnology and computer codes were just a few of the nascent technologies high school students experimented with during the Governor's School for Emerging Technologies held recently at Tennessee Tech University.
More than 50 students from across the state came to TTU this summer to learn about the technology of tomorrow and find out what it might be like to be a scientist or engineer after they graduate college. Each student received a few college credit hours for experimenting with electric currents, global geographic information systems, computer programming and other cutting-edge technologies.
"Everybody can take their experiments home and hopefully continue to experiment with them," said Holly Stretz, professor in TTU's chemical engineering department. "These are our students who are going to be our future engineers, so I want them to continue to work with these things."
As demand for professionals in the science, technology, engineering and math fields continues to increase, educators are trying to find new and more exciting ways to entice middle and high school students to think about those kinds of careers. The Governor's School for Emerging Technologies is just one of those ways at TTU.
"For most budding engineers, being able to do hands-on experiments is very exciting and it's very motivating," Stretz said. "This gives them the chance to feed their excitement and their passion."
The students took classes with Stretz, Yvette Clark, a research and development engineer with the Center for Management, Utilization and Protection of Water Resources. Dale Wilson, professor of mechanical engineering, Jessica Matson, professor in civil engineering and basic engineering professor Ken Hunter spent several weeks working with the students. After a month of classes, they got to select smaller projects and work on them independently.
Though not every one of the students in the program has chosen a career in one of the STEM fields, some have found their calling.
"We want to be super heroes; we want to save the world," said Mitchell Gordon, a junior at Ravenwood High School in Brentwood, Tenn. "In grade school, they just say, 'Oh, you want to be a scientist,' but there are lots of different kinds of scientists. Now I know that I want to be an engineer."

Servois began the "Reflections" with a philosophical justification of the research he had conducted in his "Essay" [Servois 1814a]. He began by stating that it is not necessary to consider only one primary foundation for calculus; however, the foundation selected must be rigorous. Servois was primarily speaking against the use of infinitesimals as a foundation for the differential calculus. The infinitesimal calculus, according to Servois, cannot rigorously answer the following questions:
Servois argued that these questions can be answered using the Lagrangian method. He stated that the idea of using series as a foundation for calculus is natural because students are exposed to series early in their education when performing long division or extracting roots, in which the idea of series is an underlying principle. Thus, "series and the differential calculus, therefore ought to arise together" [Servois 1814b, p. 142]. In his "Essay" [Servois 1814a], Servois had defined the differential ( dz ) by the series: [ Delta z - frac{1}{2} Delta^2 z + frac{1}{3} Delta^3 z - frac{1}{4} Delta^4 z + ldots, ] a definition he recapitulated in the "Reflections." By analogy, Servois observed that the differential is like the logarithm of the varied state, i.e. ( ln(z + Delta z) ). (In his "Essay," Servois had defined the varied state of ( phi(x, y, ldots) ) to be ( phi(x + a, y + b, ldots) ), for arbitrary constants ( a, b, ldots ) [Servois 1814a, p. 94].) Servois then claimed that all the rules of the differential calculus can be proven using this series and the distributive and commutative properties of the varied state, the difference operator, and multiplication by a constant. Indeed, he had deduced all of these properties in his "Essay."

If she be a wall, we will build her a palace of silver: and if she be a door,

Please, say this prayer aloud with me
Dear, Lord Jesus I know that I have not done everything right in my life and that
I am a sinner. I believe that you were born of the virgin Mary and were chosen by
God to bear the sins of the world that I might live and not die in sin. I willingly
confess my sins before you and the angels of God as my witnesses and I ask you Lord
Jesus to forgive me of all my sins that I have committed against you, myself and
others. I pray this prayer with a hope that I can and will be forgiven of all sins
that I have committed. Please, cleanse my life by your precious blood that you shed
on Calvary's cross. I surrender my will to you now and ask that you come into my
life and help me to live my life within your perfect will. Thank you Lord Jesus for
your forgiveness and coming into my life.

Kierons top ten kids books
Mon, 20 Jun 2011 08:42
Kieron's the MD, so don't argue. He might fire us all if you don't like his top ten...
"Choosing a top ten of Children's books is an impossible task, I've two children who both have their favourites, plus memories of my own cherished books from my childhood might not be as relevant for everyone else! That said, I've been asked to draw up a list so I will do so, with a little bit of a rationale for the line up, also I'm limiting myself to the under teens due to too many good books.
Despite now having worked in books for nearly twenty years I was quite a reluctant reader, never really finding 'the book' to grab my interest and kick off a reading habit. Then it came along it in the form of Shirley Hughes It's too Frightening for Me and I haven't stopped since. When I caught chickenpox I worked my way through Susan Cooper's The Dark is Rising sequence which has resonance with many adults still, try mentioning it on a cold winters evening!
Alan and Janet Ahlberg have, in my opinion given us some of the best children's books of all time - spoilt for choice I've selected The Jolly Postman beautifully written, illustrated and constructed (not to mention near misses such as The Pencil, Peepo, Each Peach Pear Plum, Please Mrs Butler...)
Colin McNaughton brought us Preston Pig whose adventures with wolf have entertained both my kids and me at the same time - lots to be said for bedtime stories that have a decent narrative! In this list I've put in Suddenly! yet again all his collected works are fantastic.
Jan Pienkowski is in the list to represent all the wonderful pop-up book artists with Haunted House narrowly beating ABC3D and Encyclopedia Prehistorica.
Eric Carle's Hungry Caterpillar has to be in the list, I can stand to read this over and over. I especially like it when the caterpillar eats the salami. David McKee is another children's book hero in my eyes, bringing us Elmer and Mr Benn - however I'm putting Not Now Bernard in this list because it's fun and grumpy at the same time.
Two more picture books in the line-up are Where the Wild Things Are by Maurice Sendak and Rosen and Oxenbury's re-writing of the traditional We're Going on a Bear Hunt - children's books should be read aloud (and then enjoyed beneath the covers) and these exemplify the best in illustration and poetic writing.
Finally (the end already?! No, again!) read at about 4.30am every Christmas morning Raymond Briggs' Father Christmas which gives me an excuse to mention The Snowman, Fungus the Bogeyman and Ug.
And after all that I've still missed out: the Family from One end Street, Dick King-Smith, Roald Dahl (how can that have happened?), Meg and Mog and Charlie and Lola. They crept in at the end? Ah, good.
Sleep tight."

By Neepa Sevak
Have you ever had a severe reaction to something you ate? Normally, the body's immune system discriminates between good and bad substances in the body. It identifies evident harmful substances and produces antibodies, such as histamines, to fight them. When the immune system reacts bizarrely to fight a substance that typically causes no harm, an allergy occurs. A food allergy occurs when the body's immune system reacts to otherwise nontoxic substances in certain foods. While most food allergies are mild, in some cases they can cause anaphylactic shock, a life-threatening reaction. Common foods that can trigger the allergic reaction are milk, eggs, fish, shellfish, tree nuts, peanuts, strawberries, melons, pineapple, tomatoes, MSG, preservatives, food colors, etc. Superfluous exposure to any particular food can sometimes give rise to a sensitivity making you allergic to it.
A reaction to food is not always an allergy but could be food intolerance which is more common and easily mistaken for food allergy.
Causes of Food Allergy
- Leaky gut syndrome (outflow of bacteria, toxins and undigested food wastes into the blood stream due to persistent irritation of the intestinal lining of the digestive tract)
- Stress
- Abuse of Antibiotics
- Exercise induced
Symptoms of Food Allergy
- Itchy skin rash (Hives, Eczema or Psoriasis)
- Swelling of the eyes, face, lips, tongue and throat
- Dark circles under eyes
- Tingling feeling in the mouth
- Difficulty swallowing
- Hoarse voice
- Sinus infection
- Breathing difficulty with wheezing
- Cough
- Asthma
- Ear pain
- Nausea and vomiting
- Stomach bloating with cramps
- Diarrhea or constipation
- Hyperactive or lethargic behavior
- Becoming drowsy or dull minded after eating
- Hypotension (low blood pressure)
- Migraine headache
- Dizziness or fainting
- Arthritis
- Anaphylactic shock
Homeopathic Approach to Food Allergy
Homeopathy pictures food allergies as an expression of an interruption in the patient's immune system. Under stress, the immune system will cause certain symptoms, such as food allergy. These symptoms are not a disease to be cured in themselves, but a reflection of an underlying, deeper malfunction. Homeopathic remedies treat the entire person with deep acting constitutional approach which will help desensitize, reinforce the immune system and also prevent the recurrence of the problem. Homeopathy maintains all the tissues and organs as well as the emotions and intellectual functioning at optimum level. Homeopathy seeks to naturally stimulate the body's natural defenses against food allergy symptoms and situates the body in a position to react less and less to allergens. Homeopathic remedies are made from natural substances and include specific allergens to gently, safely expose the individual to their specific weak areas. This allows the natural defenses to properly adapt to the allergen and no longer react to it adversely.
Self Care Measures
- Breastfeeding your babies will reduce their exposure to foreign proteins, making them less prone to food allergies when they grow up.
- Know what you are eating by reading food labels carefully.
- Wear a medical alert bracelet so others know if you have a reaction.
- Help cleanse toxins from your body by drinking at least 12 - 15 glasses of water a day.
Hence, Constitutional Homeopathic treatment along with a proper diet and lifestyle can help you overcome your food allergies and give you the freedom to be able to eat anything.

People Vanishing In Clusters, Unexplained – What's Happening? (Video) | Strange
(Before It\'s News)
By Susan Duclos
The video below at the 1:07 mark shows a news report that is chilling, shocking and inexplicable.
Clusters of people simply vanishing, sometimes 2 or 3 but up to 20 and 30 people disappearing from the same locations across the US in national parks, sometimes right from under the noses people that are with them.
Young, old and in between, some of them are found in places that are termed as "inaccessible," or in areas that had already been searched. Stranger still is the reaction of the Federal agencies asked for public records where the answer isn't just "no, but HELL no,"
Connecticut Shootings What No One Dares Say (Video) | Alternative
Last week 27 Americans were murdered in a shooting spree, 20 of those killed were children.
An enormous amount of attention is being focused on this event, even to the point of having the president make emotional speeches about it and visiting the families, and the story has been the top story on the news not just in the United States, but all over the world.
Obviously this is an enormous tragedy for the families involved, however there is something very important that's not being said here.
The obvious attack on the 2nd amendment may be the main topic on your mind, but the problem goes much deeper than gun control or any of these other surface issues.
Things that don't add up… (CT shooting)… Etc!!!!!…update…
Now I've been watching this news for most of the day. Remarkably, it seems to change every few minutes.
First, we had the name change. Who exactly did the shooting? Ryan? Adam? Someone else?
Then, we hear that someone in camo garb or something was apprehended in the woods. When I first heard this, I assumed it was the brother and that was why there was confusion about the name.
But turns out that the brother was actually at work – and was not in the woods. So who was in the woods?

Serious Questions Arise Concerning the True Nature of the Events
…..In the wake of this event, some very confusing details have surfaced in regards to the mainstream media's reports concerning the true nature of the events which took place inside the school. The purpose of this write-up is merely to ask some very basic questions, as the media reports which have surfaced, when put together, seem to paint a very confusing picture.

There are several documented cases where armed citizens have stopped mass attacks by gunmen. Let me list a few: The Pearl, Mississippi school shooting was stopped by the vice principal Joel Myrick with a Colt .45, The Appalachian School shooting was stopped by two students with handguns. Both of the above incidents were stopped by the armed citizens threatening the shooter without firing.

Plans to slay everyone in the Muskegon, Michigan, store and steal enough cash and jewelry to feed their "gnawing hunger for crack cocaine" fell apart for a band of would-be killers after one of their victims fought back.
(Looong Article…See Reader Responses…) Identifying Three Trends in Far Right Violence in the United States
In the morning hours of August 5, 2012, the Sikh temple at Oak Creek, Wisconsin, was crowded with children and mothers engaged in preparations for the Langar, a traditional Sikhcommunal meal scheduled to be held later that day.
At around 10:00 AM, Wade Michael Page, a 40-year-old from nearby Cudahy, Wisconsin, arrived in the temple parking lot and started firing at the temple's inhabitants using a pistol purchased several days earlier.
He then entered the temple and continued his killing spree until he was gunned down by police forcesthat arrived to the site. At that point, he had already killed six worshippers and a police officer.[1]
While details from the investigation have not yet been officially released, a growing body of evidence links Page to various far right elements, mainly the skinheads subculture and the white power music scene. As a result, policymakers and intellectuals expressed concerns about a potential revival of far right violence in the United States. Many of their responses also reflected common misconceptions and deficiencies that dominate the popular discourse about the American far right, such as the inability to distinguish between its different components, lack of understanding of its ideological tenets as well as the tendency to ignore the fact that American far right violence was never really absent; if anything, the level of far right violence has been rising steadily for the last two decades.
Brand-new surge in black-mob violence
(Editor's note: Colin Flaherty has done more reporting than any other journalist on what appears to be a nationwide trend of skyrocketing black-on-white crime, violence and abuse. WND features these reports to counterbalance the virtual blackout by the rest of the media due to their concerns that reporting such incidents would be inflammatory or even racist. WND considers it racist not to report racial abusesolely because of the skin color of the perpetrators or victims.)

Six Ways to Focus Your Twitter Strategy and Grow Your Photography Business
Posted By Martin Perlin On December 1, 2009 @ 12:40 pm In Business of Photography | 7 Comments
Many photographers who leaped into Twitter because of all the hype are now wondering whether it is worth their time. Twitter has been heralded as a new communications platform that enables virtually instant mass marketing — for free. So why have so many photographers been frustrated by their experiences?
The biggest reason is that most photographers don't have clear goals and realistic expectations for Twitter, which leads to a lack of strategic focus. These photographers are often doing one or more of the following:
Such Twitter activity creates noise (and takes up valuable time), but doesn't achieve much in terms of followers, connections or ultimately new business.
Here are six tips for keeping your Twitter use on target:
1. Follow relevant tweeps [2].
Build your Twitter community around a photography-oriented ecosystem — following photographers, photography magazines, agencies, stylists, galleries, etc. Don't dilute your account by following everything that interests you (for instance, your gym, recipe posts, gardening, etc). The personal interests can be a separate account.
2. Tweet with your followers in mind.
If you are serious about using Twitter to grow your photography business, you should not be treating it as a diary or a life cam. You should keep your tweets on target, messaging about topical areas in photography, the imaging world, equipment, photo tips — as well as your own work.
3. Retweet targeted content.
Retweeting [3] relevant photography information will enhance your own Twitter stream while building your connections with veteran tweeps. As a Twitter newbie, your own updates won't be read by many due to a lack of followers, but by retweeting, you will earn valuable exposure on other streams when you are thanked. Retweeting is a valuable service in the Twitter-verse and is the foundation for creating relationships and, ultimately, your network.
4. Enhance your retweets with personal comments.
Retweeting can mean simply reposting someone else's tweet, but I recommend you go a step further. Add short comments along with your retweets to give the posts a personal touch, inspire conversation and send some good vibes to the originator of the tweet. Your "enhanced" retweet can be retweeted by others, too — helping you build more connections.
5. Thank your tweeps for retweeting your content.
One of the cornerstones of Twitter is a "pay it forward" mentality. As your network grows, and others retweet your posts or reference your Twitter handle, you should always give them the courtesy of thanking them. It reflects well on you, and your followers will see the respect that you have for your community and be more inclined to engage.
6. Be careful when criticizing others.
Sometimes in online forums, flame wars can start and criticism can run wild. By contrast, Twitter is a warm place, where validation and support push the whole enterprise forward. While photographers generally want feedback on their work, you should weigh your words carefully, because your criticisms are public. The wrong kind of rant can send your followers scurrying away en masse. Get a sense of the flow and tone of a given conversation stream before diving in. And when in doubt, use the DM (direct message) option to communicate more privately.
So, how can tweeting on target help your photography business? When used well, Twitter can extend awareness of your work in directions you've never dreamed of. Publications, museums, stylists, models and many other potential connections are among Twitter's millions of users. Once you've learned to build and nurture the right kind of network, the possibilities are endless.

Martin, do you have in mind a minimum number of followers that would allow one to escape the "empty room" situation you cited? Thank you.
#2 Comment By Doug Pruden On December 1, 2009 @ 3:53 pm
Thanks for the input. I have been in the process of setting up a Twitter account for the past day (their server went down yesterday!). A good reference I have found is "Twitter Power" by Joel Comm and published by Wiley.
#3 Comment By Duane Stevens On December 1, 2009 @ 7:43 pm
yes, please be professional. Per #1, if you need to curse, etc., use a separate account.
There are LOTS of Twitter appications for managmeing your Tweets; try a few and see what fits with your way of working. Do some searching to see who to follow (MrTweet.com, bingTweets.com , etc.)
Use lists. Hook into other photographer's lists.

Hi Jason,
Considering the minimum number of followers is an excellent question! First looking at your Twitter followers numbers can give a skewed impression of your marketing potential, since the numbers may be inflated by spammers and 'irrelevent' followers. It is important to properly vet and review your followers, which is a hard process and slows the numbers growth, but ultimately makes your subscriber base more valuable. Generally the more material from other relevant sources that you retweet, you are on the road to building a solid base for tweeting your own updates and information about yourself. For Twitter strategies the process doesn't end when a target follower amount has been reached. It has been said that for your Twitter marketing, there's kind of a 9-to-1 rule - you need to be marketing other people nine times more than marketing yourself. This is what builds trust and relationships
#5 Comment By Paul Conrad On December 22, 2009 @ 12:43 pm
Great advice Martin.
I get too many tweets saying: "Leaving for the coffee house." or "This cake is awsum" or other irrelevant tweets.
Thanks again.
#6 Comment By Greg Taylor On January 18, 2010 @ 7:42 pm
I agree with the advice regarding followers. Think about it as quality over quantity. My twitter base is made up of photographers, social media people, creative types from my area (Phoenix) and people in the music business - since I am mostly a concert photographer. Point being they are relevant to my business or interests.
If you add value to the conversation people will follow you. My formula for tweeting is 33% conversational, 33% check out my blog or images from my latest photo shoot (adding value), 33% answering or asking questions and 1% random thoughts.
Great post - with #6 I try not to criticize anyone on Twitter. (It's a waste of time to pick fights etc.) I may challenge people's thoughts but I try to do so in a respectful mature way. ("If you argue with an idiot, no one from afar can tell the difference.")

Why Did Sina Shares Plunge 15% Tuesday?
- Posted by bbishop
- on September 21st, 2011
On Tuesday Sina ($SINA) shares dropped 15%, the most since an 11% plunge in early June, just ahead of an announcement that management was starting to sell down its stake to zero (see "Red Flag": Sina Management Selling Off Its Shareholdings From 8.7% to 0% | iChinaStock ). Other Chinese Internet stocks like Baidu ($BIDU), Youku ($YOKU), Renren ($RENN), Sohu ($SOHU) et al also fell Tuesday, but nowhere near as much as Sina did.
Readers of Digicha, Reuters, the Financial Times and the Wall Street Journal know that there is rising regulatory uncertainty and risk for Sina Weibo (see many recent posts about Sina here), and it seems strange for investors to suddenly run for the exits on no specific, public news. Then again, who really understands market psychology?
I have heard several explanations for Sina's drop last night, including: Weibo license issues; real name registration policy coming; uncertainty about the validity of the variable interest entity (VIE) structure; fears of increasing Weibo regulation overall, and investor realization that Sina monetization is further away and has less potential than the hype had suggested.
I think those are all factors, and the catalyst might have been the rumor, which Sina denied on an official Weibo, that the government has issued four Weibo licenses and that Sina did not receive one. iChinaStock wrote about this rumor in Sina Refutes Licensing Rumors to Soothe Investor Panic:
Sina today refuted earlier rumors that it had failed in getting one of the four licenses that the government would soon require the Chinese Internet companies to continue their Twitter-like services.
Earlier reports said the Chinese government plans to issue four Weibo licenses, as part of its recent efforts to tighten control on all the micro-blogging services in China. It was reported that two of the licenses will go to the Internet departments of Xinhua News Agency and People's Daily and the other two to commercial companies. Sina, tough running one of China's most popular weibo services, would not be granted the license, reports said.
Sina said today through its official account "Weibo Piyao" that the earlier licensing reports are pure rumor. But it did not specify on which part of the reports are rumors.
If the government is going to introduce Weibo licenses Sina will get one, and if this rumor triggered the selloff then brave traders might have a buying opportunity.
There is another possibility, and the reason behind the 11% plunge in early June. The Sina management buyout group is selling its stake to zero in several tranches over time, and another tranche is due to be sold in September. Perhaps, as appears to have been the case in June, someone learned of an impending large insider sale, decided to get out, and a large sell order paired with the current regulatory jitters spooked shareholders and killed the stock. But in the current regulatory environment, if management is dumping shares why should investors stick around?
As I wrote two weeks ago in Could Regulatory Winter Be Coming For China Internet Investors?:
Clearly investors should be factoring in more regulatory risk, though it is unlikely that we will see major services like Sina or Tencent Weibo shut. But do not be surprised to see new microblog restrictions that reduce some of its vitality and increase Weibo content management (aka censorship) costs for Sina and Tencent. However, I would be shocked if Weibos were neutered to such an extent that they are no longer viable products. As Keso argued months ago in Three Reasons The Government Is Unlikely To Shutdown Sina Weibo:
1. People need an outlet for their views and emotions, and a visible one is safer than an invisible one;
2. Sina Weibo is controlled by people the government trusts, and the risks from shutting Weibo are greater than the risks from not shutting it;
3. The government can use Weibo to its advantage. (See China Media Project-China's Leaders Embrace Social Media.)
A bigger risk to Sina investors may not be a Weibo shutdown but a Weibo restructuring, along the lines of Alipay's "conversion" to a 100% locally owned firm. Microblogs are at least as important to national security as are online payments, so it is not inconceivable that the government could "encourage" a Weibo spinout into a foreign shareholder-free firm. It is also possible that Sina management might not be too unhappy with such a scenario, as they have almost sold off their entire Sina stakes and appear to have already allocated shares for themselves in a Weibo subsidiary. Remember, I am speculating here about possible scenarios, not actually saying this will happen.
The new M&A rules that appear to question the validity of the Variable Interest Entities (VIEs) could also be problematic for any of the Chinese Internet IPOs in the overseas pipeline. I hear it may be getting difficult to get a Chinese law firm to bless the structure now, a prerequisite for being able to list shares.
I hope these regulatory rumblings are just a temporary chill. But hope is not an investment strategy, and given the current political climate, including the buildup to the 2012 leadership change, investors would be justified in wondering if something bigger is going on.
Winter is coming to Beijing, it appears to be coming to the Chinese Internet, I have heard rumblings of a coming Internet "rectification campaign" in October, and so investors should be careful. People say buy when there is blood in the streets, but when it comes to Chinese Internet stocks there is always the chance that there will be blood AND Internet company body parts in the streets before the regulators are done.

Baton Rouge gets $1.5M grant for Isaac costs
The Federal Emergency Management Agency has awarded East Baton Rouge Parish a $1.5 million grant to help city-parish government with costs associated with Hurricane Isaac.
The Advocate reports ( http://bit.ly/WRzm7V) the grant, part of FEMA's Public Assistance program, will help reimburse the city-parish for equipment and supplies used during the response to Isaac and the recovery effort.
The grant covers the federal share - 75 percent - of the parish's eligible costs and the state or parish will pay the remaining 25 percent.
Several city-parish departments, including Metro Airport, police, fire, emergency medical services, public works and the Mayor's Office of Homeland Security and Emergency Preparedness, were involved in the effort.

MILWAUKEE — A fundraiser is being organized to benefit the family of fallen Milwaukee County Sheriff's Deputy Sergio Aleman.
Aleman was killed in a July 31st crash on Interstate-43 near downtown Milwaukee. His service vehicle rear-ended a flatbed tow truck — and Aleman died of his injuries a while later.
Now leading the charge to make sure Aleman's family is not left high and dry is former Milwaukee County Sheriff's Deputy Christopher Adams. He's organizing a benefit to honor the legacy of Aleman, a close colleague.
"Our goal is $50,000 for the family. I know it's a big goal, but I said 'You know what? I'm gonna set the bar high, and make the community meet me there,'" Adams said.
The benefit will be held on Sunday, September 2nd at Clifford's Fine Food on Milwaukee's southwest side. It'll be a 12-hour affair and feature food, drinks, a silent auction and live music.
"Sergio — he'll be very well-missed. He'll never be forgotten. We wanna do something in tribute, to let his family know that this will continue — that the brotherhood doesn't stop because he's no longer with us," Adams said.
Fellow Milwaukee County employee, District 12 Supervisor Peggy Romo West is also getting involved with the effort to publicize the Aleman benefit.
"This tribute, and this fundraiser, is a great way for us to show the Aleman family that we love them," Romo West said.
Aleman left behind his wife and five children.

Patradoot or the Messenger 34/Many……….
English version by Ravindra K Kapoor
Originally written in Hindi by my
Late father Dr. Amar Nath Kapoor
Like a naughty girl, she acts in many ways, dear letter,
To attract our attention by laughing or even weeping,
And often she gets angry on us still she wins our hearts,
When she sings her broken melodies, while sweetly mumbling.
As a lovely doll, she attracts and wins,
Everyone's attention and heart, dear,
Remembrance of her sweet face,
Has made my heart so heavy,
As a newly come-up charming bud,
She is dearer to us than our life, dear letter.
She is even a darling of all the plants,
Trees, creepers and flowers of our garden, dear.
When the memories of her dear father,
Would be splashing in her tender heart, dear letter,
She would be going amid the plants and trees,
To distract the memory of her father, dear.
She is the hope and strength of her mother,
When I am away for freedom struggle or in jail,
In the lovely face of my daughter, you would find,
An image of her father, dear letter.
By the time you will get acquainted,
With this lovely child of us and of nature,
You would recollect immediately, dear letter,
My message you have to convey to my beloved.

Patradoot in Hindi was originally written by my late father
Dr. Amar Nath Kapoor around 1932, who was a freedom fighter.
He wrote Patradoot in Hindi, when he was kept in Faizabad Jail for quite
a long time. The Epic was written as a gift for my mother and it was
sent to her secretly from Faizabad Jail. He was imprisoned
by the British, as he was fighting for India's freedom
under the leadership of Mahatma Gandhi. He was imprisoned
many times during 1920 to 1947. After India's
independence as a true follower of Gandhi Dr. Amar Nath
Kapoor left active politics and devoted rest of his life in
writing easy mass literature and wrote many Dramas,
Poetry books, epics. All his other literary
works were mainly written from 1955 to 1990.
He left this mortal world in 1994.

NASCAR's 'fun race' enjoyable for all fans
NASCAR COLUMN – Kyle McElhaney takes a look back at last weekend's All-Star event with its Sprint Showdown. He talks about the various parts of the all-star race, it's controversial and exciting ending and what it meant to most drivers and fans. (May 27, 2010, Page 7)
Is it real momentum or just luck?
NASCAR — So early in the season you really have to wonder who has the momentum to carry themselves through the season and into the chase and who just got lucky. In conventional sports, luck plays a huge role and NASCAR is no different. The luckiest guy so far this year has to be Jamie McMurray. (March 4, 2010, Page 7)

Cauliflower Soup
I'm going to let you in on a little secret. Come closer now…come closer. Lean in. Are you ready? I'm going to whisper. (I like soup.) Don't tell anyone!
Okay, so I just made a big deal out of nothing. But the fact remains that I love soup, especially at this chilly (chilly? try frigid) time of year. And out of all the soups in my repertoire (have you tried this one yet? Your heart will rejoice), the one that most says "Comfort Food" to me is my mom's time-tested Cauliflower Soup. It's brothy. Savory. Creamy. Filled with tender chunks of cauliflower and all the comforts of home. I've made it in my own household for years…and today I share it with you.
Keep in mind that while this soup may appear to have a lot of steps, there's nothing difficult about it. Just get your ingredients ready and it'll be a cinch.
Here's what you'll need:
The Cast of Characters: Cauliflower, Carrot, Onion, Celery, Chicken Broth or Stock, Milk, Half & Half, Butter, Flour, Salt, Pepper, Sour Cream, and Parsley (fresh or dried).
Wash 1 to 2 heads of cauliflower, depending on how chunky you'd like the soup to be. I use about a head and 1/3 of another head.
Just whack the head in half and get rid of the hard inner core and green parts.
Then just roughly chop the cauliflower.
You could be meticulous and cut the cauliflower into neat little florets…but why?
Next, finely dice one carrot. I just cut strips in the carrot, then rotate the strips 90 degrees and finely dice.
I do the same to the celery: just cut it into strips, then dice.
Same goes with the onion: first cut lines/strips…
Then say the following word: Mirepoix, pronounced "mi-reh-pwah." That's what this is.
Place a stock pot or dutch oven over medium high heat and melt 4 tablespoons butter in the pan. When the butter's melted, throw in the onions.
Stir them around for 2 to 3 minutes, or until they get a little color.
Throw in the carrots and celery…
And stir it around for a minute or so.
Now just throw in the cauliflower. If it's finely diced, it should measure to about 2 quarts. If it's large and weird like mine, more like 3 quarts.
Next, and please don't hate me, add 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, if you have it. PLEASE, IN THE NAME OF ALL THAT IS GOOD IN THE WORLD AND YOU FIND YOURSELF LUCKY ENOUGH TO LIVE NEAR A SUPERMARKET THAT CARRIES FRESH PARSLEY, add it in.
If you don't, however, use dried parsley flakes. In the end, you won't even be able to tell.
Give it a good stir, reduce the heat to low…
And cover the pot. Simmer on low heat for 15 minutes, stirring once or twice during the process.
When 15 minutes is over, pour in 2 quarts of chicken broth. If you have homemade stock in your freezer, go for it. If you don't, but it in the store. Just be sure to buy the low sodium variety so you'll be able to control the salt content of the soup.
It's all about control, people. Cauliflower and control.
Bring to a boil over medium heat, then reduce heat and let the soup simmer.
While it's simmering, melt 4 tablespoons butter in a medium saucepan over medium-low heat.
In a separate bowl, pour 2 cups whole milk. I always use whole milk in soups because…well, because.
Add 6 tablespons flour to the milk…
As soon as the butter in melted…
Pour the milk/flour mixture into the saucepan.
Stir to combine. Almost immediately, it'll thicken into a nice white sauce.
Did you know you just made a white sauce? It's true!
Well, I made it for you, but still. Your heart was in it.
Next, because the world is a crazy place, add 1 cup of half & half to the white sauce.
And now for the fun part: Pour the white sauce into the simmering soup mixture.
Now, just throw in a bay leaf or two.
And a little bit of salt. We'll want to taste the soup before adding much salt.
Now just let the soup simmer for 15 to 20 minutes. It'll fill your house with fanciful aromas and feelings.
Here's my soup tureen. My old friend, Sissy, gave it to me when I got married and it made my heart go pitter-pat.
I love you, Sissy. Thank you for my soup tureen. It always make me think of you.
China check: Spode "Blue Italian"
Now, here's the kicker: just before serving, throw 1 generous cup of sour cream into the serving bowl or tureen.
Add 2 to 3 ladles of hot soup into the serving bowl…
Give it a good stir, just to get the sour cream used to the soup.
Pour the rest of the soup into the serving bowl.
And let me tell you, if you don't think this stuff is beyond yummy, you've got another thing comin'.
It makes me tingle. In a really, really good way.
And YOU can tingle, TOO! Just make this soup today.
Oh! And one more thing:
Have a wonderful day!

Sarah On Tuesday, January 6 at 12:19 am
Oh yum! Its stinking late at night and I am just about to get out of bed and make soup. Darn wireless internet….
Vicki in NNY On Tuesday, January 6 at 12:22 am
This made me think that I really want chicken noodle soup and my mother always makes it and shares. Weil, I decided that I am going to give it a try to I checked your archives and saw Hyacinth's recipe and am totally going to make that this weekend and warm up the house and my family's belly's. Thank you for giving me a goal!
coloradolady On Tuesday, January 6 at 12:22 am
This sounds wonderful. I am going to try it.
aja On Tuesday, January 6 at 12:22 am
That looks delicious…I'll definitely have to make this… Thanks for another scrumptious recipe!
cjwsbg On Tuesday, January 6 at 12:24 am
Looks yummy! I will have to get this made sometime during these cold winter months!!!
Do you have a recipe…a good one…lol..yours are always good…for potato bacon soup? My husband lives on the stuff from the restaurant down the street…and I would love a good, creamy recipe for it!
Katy Sue-E On Tuesday, January 6 at 12:26 am
Oh yum. I love soup almost as much as I love pasta. And if it's cold enough, more. And sushi. I love sushi. Oh, and steak. Wait, what was I saying? Oh yeah, soup. This looks warm and creamy and just what I would love to dig into at the end of a long day. I think I am going to institute "Soup Night" once a week for the rest of the winter. Probably on Tuesday. This will be my first offering. Thank you!
Stine On Tuesday, January 6 at 12:26 am
I made chicken corn chowder on the weekend. Nothing like hot soup on COLD days!
Gabi In Australia On Tuesday, January 6 at 12:27 am
Hi Ree, I love soup too. That soup looks yummy, yummy, yummy. It's way too hot here for soup at the moment. I am bottling and preserving at present from our very bountiful veggie garden. A very Happy Birthday for tomorrow, Ree.
Kara On Tuesday, January 6 at 12:30 am
That looks stupendous — plan to make it later this week!
Bron On Tuesday, January 6 at 12:35 am
One of my friends makes a very similar soup to this, only adds a bit of curry powder to give it zing and colour. Absolutely one of my all time favourite soups. Thanks Ree!
shelleyvail On Tuesday, January 6 at 12:37 am
That looks so delicious! And Happy Birthday too!!! At first I saw this recipe & thought, "oh look! a healthy recipe to start the new year right!" Sour cream, whole milk, half & half, butter….ummmm, maybe not so much!
I hope this birthday is a great one! It's a big one, right???
LB On Tuesday, January 6 at 12:37 am
Hey Tia #8 I was wondering the same thing — isn't Oklahoma also on central time zone?? It is here in TN. I guess a Pioneer Woman's work is never done! Ree, honestly!! Get to bed …don't you have to be up in a few minutes to feed or herd something???
We are a family of vampires (or so we have been told) so being up all night here is nothing new. My 12 year old just come out to tell me that he was NOT sleepy and it is 12:30, literally could be up for another hour or two! Needless to say both children (my oldest 16) have always been this way. Can you imagine what the teachers think about us?? You would not have wanted to be at some of the parent teacher conferences I have been to over the years! And you were worried about being unfit! LOL Lucky for me my husband will be up getting the kids ready for school first thing in the AM, and I will get up in time for Y&R and read about all of your accomplishments for the morning while I drink my coffee. By the way, I am a little bit embarrassed to say Y&R comes on at 11:30 here. Ree, you really must stop trying to outdo everyone, it is starting to get to be a bit much!! Tee Hee : )
Judi On Tuesday, January 6 at 12:39 am
I can't tell you how much I love cauliflower. Thanks for the new way to enjoy it. I love love love soup too,.

Emily On Tuesday, January 6 at 1:07 am
Woman! My thighs cannot take this soup…esp. after the Holidays. Why must you tempt me?
Cindy On Tuesday, January 6 at 1:14 am
Oh man, I really want to try this. Ree, will you adopt me?
Joylene On Tuesday, January 6 at 1:34 am
delicious looking soup. I heart soup.
I agree that you should add a broccoli one to the mix.
kerry On Tuesday, January 6 at 1:48 am
hmmm, i'm not really a fan of cauliflower, but after seeing someone's suggestion of adding some curry powder, i might try this.
Amy On Tuesday, January 6 at 1:49 am
this looks really good…I have to try it!
Katie K. On Tuesday, January 6 at 1:55 am
Okay, in every other circumstance, I avoid cauliflower like the plague. And yet, I would kill for a bowl of this right now. My mind, it is blown.
Anonymous On Tuesday, January 6 at 1:55 am
Ree, I'm trying this tonight, I have tried everything else
you told me to.. Hope it's good. I'll let you know.
Wish you would email me about what we talked about sponsoring kids I haven't heard from you since your first letter. I've emailed you. no answer. email me and I'll give you my phone number.

Happy birthday darl – a little something in your inbox from moi (and crew)… it's not really soup weather over here, but I'll bookmark this for July!!!
Have a huge day (and have a chardy for me!!)
Carol in NC On Tuesday, January 6 at 2:29 am
It's your birthday? How do people know this stuff? Well, HAPPY BIRTHDAY! I love birthdays. And cauliflower. And sleep, which is evading me because I'm up waiting for some cough medicine to kick in and now I'm wide awake.
koala girl On Tuesday, January 6 at 2:51 am
would love to make this soup, but what's half and half?
LB On Tuesday, January 6 at 2:59 am
Hey Koala girl, it is thicker than whole milk and thinner than whipping cream- you should be able to find it next to the whipping cream in the milk/refrigerated case. Hope that helps!
Heathahlee On Tuesday, January 6 at 3:02 am
Oh, my cheese this looks good. I lurve soup.
KS On Tuesday, January 6 at 3:18 am
sounds great, we eat a lot of soups in winter, this will be next on my menu!
Texas Rhea On Tuesday, January 6 at 3:25 am
The soup toureen is beautiful! I have no such item in my kitchen collection.
And I love how your pot matched the soup so well.
sparkly_jules On Tuesday, January 6 at 3:30 am
My husband won't touch cauliflower, but I'm tempted to make it just for myself. I'm wondering if some cheddar cheese might make it even more interesting? hmmmmm. . .
Looks yummy!

Marie On Tuesday, January 6 at 3:31 am
I am a crazy soup fan. Probably my fav.. That or Thai food. I love your recipes…do you have one for Potato Leek or a really good white Clam Chowder??? I used to have a really good chowder recipe but lost it a couple years ago. It's like losing an old friend. It was the only one my daughter would eat. I'd make her try yours though cause I know It'd be great. Maybe you could do a soup series…you don't have many soup recipes up???? (begging here)
Also, will you be getting back to the printable recipes??
Most important Happy, Happy Birthday to You who gives so much to so many. You deserve a great life and a great b-day. Thanks for being born you…we love ya.
MariaV On Tuesday, January 6 at 3:45 am
Happy Birthday, Ree!
Mmmm! Liking soup is a big deal in my house. During the winter, soup is the only thing I really motivated to cook/eat. My family disagrees. Does this freeze well?Thanks for the recipe.
Sleepless In KL On Tuesday, January 6 at 3:48 am
Mmm…Looks yummy. Now I know what to do when cauliflowers go on sale at less than a dollar per kilo at Tesco!

Happy Birthday Ree..

Happy Birthday, Ree!!!
Lori M On Tuesday, January 6 at 4:38 am
I've been wanting to ask this question for quite some time…do you take all these pictures with one hand or are you using a tripod? Curious minds…
Melody C. On Tuesday, January 6 at 4:43 am
Weirdly, cauliflower is the one vegetable my husband won't touch. Even though itt's the smell he can't stand, he won't even it it raw. So for lunch sometimes, I'll microwave some, then open the windows so the smell dissipates before he gets home!!!
My diet won't handle the whole milk, half and half, or sour cream…but skim milk thickens just as well in a white sauce!!! I'll be making this soup soon!!
Tabitha (From Single to Married) On Tuesday, January 6 at 4:50 am
This looks fantastic! Happy Birthday today Ree – I hope you take it easy and enjoy your day!!
Tabitha @ http://www.fromsingletomarried.com
Dana On Tuesday, January 6 at 4:54 am
Wow! I just made potato soup over the weekend or I'd be making this tomorrow! I LOVE cauliflower! Strangely enough, it's a vegetable my kids will eat. May have to throw in some cheese though. Cauliflower loves cheese, ya know!

Now do I win some major award or something?
Carmen D On Tuesday, January 6 at 5:21 am
I love soup too. In the winter time we keep a batch of soup made up for breakfast, this week is chicken noodle soup. Next week will be califlower. Sounds wonderful.
lv4921391 On Tuesday, January 6 at 5:25 am
whew…after looking for hours I finally found here a link to the restaurant supply store…why was I looking for it ?…cuz I think their shelving (where they keep their inventory of goods for sale) is the perfect solution for your pantry…adjust the height of the shelves as you wish…the soup looks good and happy birthday Ree.
lv4921391 On Tuesday, January 6 at 5:29 am
ps…Home Depot sells similar shelving, but maybe the supply store has a better source.
Paula Guarino On Tuesday, January 6 at 5:29 am
It's cold and icy here, and that soup looks so good I might have to chance a trip to the store. I'm a soup freak, too! We eat it all year round!
Theresa from Alberta On Tuesday, January 6 at 5:33 am
Good olde fashioned comfort food, yummy! adding califlower and fresh parsley to grocery list.
suzinoz On Tuesday, January 6 at 5:33 am
Another great recipe! I'll be sure to give it a whirl when winter returns to the Southern Hemisphere.
Have a great birthday!
Theresa from Alberta On Tuesday, January 6 at 5:34 am
p.s. "HAPPY BIRTHDAY" PW
michelle On Tuesday, January 6 at 5:51 am
that looks oh-so-yummy! I'd have to make the low fat version though….skim milk, no half and half, plain yogurt. I'm not sure what to do about the butter though.
Phoo-D On Tuesday, January 6 at 5:59 am
Cauliflower can be such an underrated vegetable! This soup looks comforting and perfect for this time of year. Yum!
Caroline in Tennessee On Tuesday, January 6 at 6:06 am
I could eat soup for breakfast, lunch, and supper (and sometimes I do!)..Oh, and PW
Caroline in Tennessee On Tuesday, January 6 at 6:11 am
continued..I don't understand how I just posted that before I was finished….but what I was going to tell you is that I was bidding on a cake stand on ebay last night and I saw a beautiful jadite (jadeite?? not sure of spelling)…anyway, the stuff you love! If you don't already have one and would like to have it..you might want to bid on it! Happy Birthday!
lori On Tuesday, January 6 at 6:11 am
Love this recipe…MUST make it for my mother….cauliflower is one of her favorites. And as for me…I don't think I have ever eaten soup I didn't like…I think it's good for the soul or something…
Lisaiz On Tuesday, January 6 at 6:18 am
Wow – so yummy looking! Too bad I'm the only one in my family who isn't either a) lactose intolerant or b) allergic to dairy. Hmmmmm, maybe I can make a mini batch for myself, because it looks really REALLY good!
I'm always so excited to see a new recipe on here! Keep 'em coming, please!

The first time I read it I put a Tablespoon in by mistake. Everyone still liked it!

Yum! I will definitely have to make this. I love eating soup this time of year. Yesterday, it was homemade split pea and ham soup.

Have you considered selling frozen batches of this to those of us that can NOT cook no matter how easy the recipe?
Pretty please????

I love soup too. Made Shrimp Gumbo last night. I'll have to make this some time soon too.

Rebecca S. On Tuesday, January 6 at 6:31 am
Oh Yummy Ree! For those trying to lose weight…we can actually take this recipe and tone it down a bit with lower percent milk and fat free half and half, butter we can switch to benecal for those with high cholesterol.
It will taste slightly less tastey, but it will allow this diabetic and her husband with high cholesterol to savor the flavor and join in on the Ree recipe fun! :O)
Your recipes have been made and our neighbors, the police, the firemen and my husbands hospital staff LOVE it when I not only make the cookies, but make your recipes for staff. It keeps them going while on duty. I can adapt most of the recipes for our families health issues AND still have flavor. You are AWESOME! THANK YOU!!

Erica from Cooking for Seven On Tuesday, January 6 at 6:42 am
I've never made cauliflower soup. It kinda scares me. You make it sound delicious.
I'm right with you on the whole milk. Why settle for anything less? And Daisy sour cream is the best!
MelissaF On Tuesday, January 6 at 6:50 am
This looks really good. Just one question…how do you stay so thin eating such fattening foods? I'm trying to watch what I eat because I need to lose weight so how do you do it? Is it just portion control because there's no way I can lose weight eating stuff like this.
Janet On Tuesday, January 6 at 6:58 am
This looks delish! I have some turkey/chicken stock in the freezer and I think I still have fresh parsley in the garden (cross my fingers!) I'm going to try using frozen cauliflower with this since I need to get it out of my freezer.

NEW YORK (AP) -- Dollar Tree is buying rival discount store Family Dollar in a cash-and-stock deal valued at about $8.5 billion.
Stockholders of Family Dollar Stores will receive $59.60 in cash and the equivalent of $14.90 in shares of Dollar Tree for each share they own. The companies put the value of the transaction at $74.50 per share, which is an approximately 23 percent premium to Family Dollars Friday closing price of $60.66.
The companies put the enterprise value of the deal, including debt and other costs, at more than $9 billion.
Family Dollar stockholders will own somewhere between 12.7 percent and 15.1 percent of Dollar Trees outstanding common shares at closing. Shares spiked more than 24 percent and were headed for an all-time high before the opening bell Monday.
Shares of Dollar Tree neared an all-time high.
Core customers for bargain stores and major retailers like Wal-Mart have been among the hardest hit by the recession and its aftermath because of job instability.
Family Dollar has struggled and has attempted to reinvigorate sales by lowering prices on almost 1,000 basic items. Its cut some jobs and shuttered underperforming stores.
The company had been conducting a strategic review since the winter, and investor Carl Icahn urged Family Dollar last month to put itself up for sale. Icahn has built up a stake in the company of more than 9 percent, according to regulatory filings.
Dollar Tree CEO Bob Sasser said Monday that the deal will give Dollar Tree more than 13,000 stores in the U.S. and Canada. That is nearly three times as many stores as Wal-Mart Stores Inc., though Wal-Marts square footage is still greater.
The companies did not say if any Dollar Tree or Family Dollar stores would be closed.
The combined Dollar Tree-Family Dollar chain will have sales of more than $18 billion and Sasser says that the transaction will create a more diverse company with an enhanced geographic reach.
Dollar Tree stores sell products for $1 or less, while Family Dollars pricing is much broader.
Dollar Tree will continue to operate under the existing Dollar Tree, Deals, and Dollar Tree Canada store signs. It will keep the Family Dollar brand as well.
Family Dollar Chairman and CEO Howard Levine will still lead those stores and report to Sasser. He will join Dollar Trees board.
Dollar Tree plans to finance the deal with available cash, bank debt and bonds.
The boards of both companies have unanimously approved the deal, which is expected to close by early next year. It still needs approval from Family Dollar shareholders.
Shares of Family Dollar Stores Inc., based in Charlotte, North Carolina, surged $14.89 to $75.55 in premarket trading. The record high during regular trading is $75.29. Shares of Dollar Tree Inc., based in Chesapeake, Virginia, jumped 10 percent, or $5.50 to $59.72. The all-time high for that stock is $60.19.
