This is a quickie, folks, but a yummy quickie, which, as you all know, is the best kind of quickie there is. When my friend, Hyacinth, told me to make these silly little numbers yesterday, I laughed. "You put WHAT? On a WHAT? And top it with a WHAT?" I said this with incredulity in an apparent attempt to pretend that everyday ingredients like Ritz crackers and storebought marshmallows are somehow beneath me. Okay, now THAT'S funny. And when I popped one of these in my mouth and ate it, I also ate my words.
They're surprisingly delightful. Magically delicious. Creamy, dreamy, and satisfying. And when you have a houseful of kids clamoring for the next big thing in sugar and carbs, they're the perfect fit. Much, much better than Ding Dongs and Mountain Dew. I think.
To make the little delights, just grab some Ritz crackers, peanut butter, and large marshmallows. Everyone has these lying around the pantry…right? I thought so.
Spread peanut butter on the crackers, top each cracker with a marshmallow, and pop them in the oven under the broiler. How brown/black you want your marshmallows will determine how close to the cooking element you put the cookie sheet.
'Round these parts, we happen to like our marshmallows nice & toasted.
Me? I prefer a hybrid of golden brown and just-barely-starting-to-blacken.
For me, this one's a little on the black, mutated side. But Marlboro Man liked it that way.
Doesn't it remind you of Fourth of July black snakes? I love those things. I like to abandon everyone at our Fourth of July celebration and hunker over in the garage by myself, lighting snake after snake and inhaling the fumes. I think I'll buy several truckloads of the suckers this year.

P.S. Enjoy the Marguerites!

Preparation Instructions
Hyacinth told me about these delicious little quickies. They are surprisingly delightful and surprisingly simple.
Grab as many Ritz crackers and marshmallows as you want. Spread a bit of peanut butter on each cracker and top each one with a marshmallow.
Pop them into your oven's broiler and cook them until you like the color.
Do you like your marshmallows blackened? Place them closer to the broiler. Like them golden-brown? Place them farther from your broiler element.
When they look just right take them out of the oven and try not to burn yourself because you will want to eat them immediately!

OH LOVED the black snakes.
These look tasty.
Farming Fabulously On Friday, June 20 at 1:42 pm
Can't wait to try, thanks for sharing.
lindsey On Friday, June 20 at 1:42 pm
Holy crap, girl. You've been on a posting spree lately!
DS requested these for his birthday tomorrow….not sure how I feel about 8 – 2 year olds running around my house after eating sticky marshmallows, though…
Susanne On Friday, June 20 at 1:45 pm
These look so good! When my son is a little older and can be trusted to not smear them on the walls, I'll try making them. Or maybe I'll make them after he goes to bed and eat them all by myself.
Dancing Shoes On Friday, June 20 at 1:45 pm
These look interesting and tasty and I will definitely try them. But I had to laugh at your comment on the 4th of July snake smoke. I thought there must be something seriously wrong with me for liking that! Well, there probably is…however, it's nice to know I have company. Goodness, I feel so liberated getting that out in the open!!
Beth On Friday, June 20 at 1:47 pm
These will definitely be a hit at our home! Thanks!
Delaina On Friday, June 20 at 1:49 pm
Holy Macaroni – AWESOME!
Cynthia On Friday, June 20 at 1:49 pm
Call me a little strange, but I'm not a huge fan of peanut butter. I eat on a slice of bread when I have a really long run, just because it's good for me, but any ideas on what else can be used. Maybe chocolate?? I'll have to experiment. Thanks for inventive snack!
Allie On Friday, June 20 at 1:54 pm
yum! never really thought of that concept. i will have to try it! although we do have a firepit out back, and i feel as though it would be jealous, seeing us use the oven in its place to roast marshmallows. I suppose you could still make these like s'mores!
http://allieparkersthoughts.blogspot.com (i have giveaways every friday too!)
ap On Friday, June 20 at 1:54 pm
Hmm, like a toasted fluffernutter…. go google Marshmallow Fluff immediately. It's a Yankee thing, but you'lll like it.
Kelley On Friday, June 20 at 1:55 pm
Cynthhia, (#108), what if you used Nutella chocolate-hazelnut spread?
It should be criminal to make something this easy. But if loving this snack is wrong, I don't want to be right! Or something like that…
Kendra On Friday, June 20 at 1:55 pm
We make these with saltines and use another cracker to make a sandwich. My husband is very particular about which side of the cracker has the peanut butter on it (the unsalted side!) I agree that it might be a southern thing – I'm from Mississippi. Any of y'all ever eaten BBQ Fritos and vanilla ice cream? Heaven on earth!
Wonders Never Cease On Friday, June 20 at 1:56 pm
Yum! How did I not know about these?
I also love Ritz crackers and a chocolate drop–the old fashioned kind. Just smush one and put it between 2 crackers and eat it up. Good!
yvonne On Friday, June 20 at 1:56 pm
These are great. We ate them often as kids. You need to stick a few chocolate chips in the peanut butter yet. . . yum! Chocolate, peanut butter. . . . . . can't go wrong!
Emily On Friday, June 20 at 1:58 pm
I've never tried them with Ritz (we use saltines)! Michael calls them "Monstrosity Crackers" but he just doesn't know what's good.
Dee On Friday, June 20 at 2:01 pm
My Mother made these for me, I made them for my daughter, and if I ever have grandkids, I will make this for them. Meanwhile, I make them for my nieces.
Ann CP On Friday, June 20 at 2:01 pm
What in the heck is a 4th of July Black Snake?
sharon On Friday, June 20 at 2:03 pm
Looks yummy, think I might substitute nutella for the peanut butter.
Jyl On Friday, June 20 at 2:03 pm
We make these all the time…we all love them but I never knew they had a name.
Dejoni On Friday, June 20 at 2:06 pm
Who woulda thunk it? I will be making these tonight.
Thanks for ruining my diet! LOL
Toni On Friday, June 20 at 2:09 pm
Wow, I thought my mom was just being silly when she fed me marshmallow creme on Ritz crackers, now I know she was just ahead of her time! Yum. As are Reese's peanut butter cups in place of the Hershey's bar in a s'mores.
And another thing…black snakes ROCK!
Jenn On Friday, June 20 at 2:11 pm
I bet the kids will love these!
Doris On Friday, June 20 at 2:11 pm
I will be making these for my grandboys!
Sarah @ Ordinary Days On Friday, June 20 at 2:12 pm
Thanks for telling me what to bring to our family 4th of July party.
I think I'll head to the store now for the ingredients, ya know just to make sure I have everything ready when the 4th rolls around…or to make them this afternoon and eat them all by myself while hiding from my kids in the bathroom. Either way.
Andrea in FL On Friday, June 20 at 2:12 pm
As soon as work is done I'm stopping by the store to pick up marshmallows, dern punks ate 'em all. They are gonna love these tonight while we're watching Camp Rock. Thanks Ree…there goes my diet……….again.
Heidi On Friday, June 20 at 2:13 pm
Mmm! A wonderful combination I never would have thought of–thank you, Ree! (And happy Friday everyone!)
Jennifer On Friday, June 20 at 2:14 pm
Oooooo yum! I bet they would taste good with a square of Hershey's chocolate bar or even better, a Caramelo square. I'm hungry.
Mandy-yes I comment here everyday. On Friday, June 20 at 2:20 pm
My children will love these! I could spread peanut butter on a rock and my five year old would probably eat it.
Regina On Friday, June 20 at 2:32 pm
YUMMMMMMM…have all of this! Ritz and pb is my snack anyway! And the Black Snakes……those were my fav too…so cool to watch and yeah…..the smell!
Meg On Friday, June 20 at 2:38 pm
I'm so totally trying that BUT adding a bit of CHOCOLATE!!!!
Robin On Friday, June 20 at 2:42 pm
Well… I don't know know if thats the BEST kind of quickie, but with my Husband at work they will have to do.
BTW, wasn't Hyacinth supposed to be coming over to help you get foccused and organized and finish projects you already had going? Not distract you with new ones?
I LOVE the black snakes to! Count me in for 2 truckloads! (although being PG its probably better to pass on the fumes.)
Defessa On Friday, June 20 at 2:46 pm
Mom used to make what she used to call Johnny Appleseed's. The only thing different is to substitute an apple slice for the Ritz cracker. MMmm! Apple and peanutbutter and toasted marshmellow!
Melissa On Friday, June 20 at 2:47 pm
When I was a kid, right after the microwave started becoming popular, this was one of my favorite treats for my grandmother and I to make.
marcoda On Friday, June 20 at 2:50 pm
Dude, we are totally going to make these at my baby shower this weekend! It's co-ed so we're going to roast our marshmallows over the fire pit (so the guys can play with fire) and spread Nutella in addition to peanut butter on the crackers (so the women can lick chocolate sauce off of knives). Thanks, P-Dub for the quick and yummy recipe!
Lola-Dawn On Friday, June 20 at 2:51 pm
from roasted peppers to these … well, we just never know what to expect from you, do we? Personally, I like 'em with chunks of chocolate instead of pb!
basketlady On Friday, June 20 at 2:52 pm
I, too, love the 4th of July snakes. I have always had to buy these for the 4th…and sparklers…it just isn't the 4th, without those two!
Julie at Elisharose On Friday, June 20 at 2:58 pm
Brain fart! What if you put an m&m under the marshmallow for a surprise bite of chocolate. It would be almost like a s'more.
Oh, I just scrolled up a bit. Seems like I'm not the only one interested in a little chocolate!
Darlyne On Friday, June 20 at 2:58 pm
Quick and Easy. I like it!
I love those snakes too. In fact they are the only snakes I like!
Lee Ann On Friday, June 20 at 2:59 pm
My kind of recipe! I've already eaten 4 of them … Yum!
mary s On Friday, June 20 at 2:59 pm
Wow, those things look disgusting…I have to make them right away, I'm wondering if you could put a bit of Hershey bar on the peanut butter , and then the marshmallow…sort of a Resse's cup meets the smore kind of thing. That, and a glass of cold milk…and I'm good to go.
Heffalump On Friday, June 20 at 3:11 pm
I have a friend that doesn't eat chocolate (I know…she is deprived) so they make s'mores with peanut butter instead of chocolate on the graham crackers…this recipe reminded me of that.
ladybug On Friday, June 20 at 3:16 pm
I bet s'mores would be really good a la this cooking/broiling method. I gotta try these, ritz, pb, & marshmallows, mmmm…
Ariel On Friday, June 20 at 3:16 pm
Looks delightful!
Lisa On Friday, June 20 at 3:18 pm
Yum…those bring back memories..my grandma used to make those for me when I was staying with her in the summer…Yum !! Now I'm off to Walmart to get marshmallows….
Cheryl in Nebraska On Friday, June 20 at 3:18 pm
Ohhh yes the smell of those snakes glowing and growing on the 4th….memories for sure!
I'll try these little snacks…I love peanut butter!
Laura-Belle On Friday, June 20 at 3:20 pm
My kids will love these today! (Oh, I might just like 10 or 12, too I'm trying to do extra fun stuff to kick off summer vacation, and these will be perfect! Thanks, Pioneer Woman! Every recipe of yours that I've made so far, we've all devoured! Love your recipes!
Laura in Snohomish
Life on an Island On Friday, June 20 at 3:25 pm
Replace the cracker with an english muffin … and we call that a well rounded summer breakfast here on Whidbey Island. Especially eaten next to a damp tent and a smokin campfire. Blue tarp campers unite.
Angie C. On Friday, June 20 at 3:27 pm
oh, yum!
ella in austin tx On Friday, June 20 at 3:30 pm
Yum! I wonder if you could do this around a campfire.
Toast your marshmallows as usual and sub the crackers & peanut butter for grahams and chocolate.
OR! How about instead of peanut butter and Reese's Peanut Butter cup instead of plain pb?
Mmmm! I trying it next week on my camping trip.
bighairenvy On Friday, June 20 at 3:31 pm
Do you think these would go well with a nice Cabernet?
Can you tell that I, too, am a 4th of July snake-smoke sniffin' kind of gal? HeeHee!!
Joy On Friday, June 20 at 3:37 pm
Since I expect to be inundated (there is no spell check on this) by grandkids and assorted little friends this week for a week of cousin camp–nothing could have come in handier than this recipe–unless it was a whistle or another pair of hands. Thnaks PW I love ya.
Jennifer On Friday, June 20 at 3:38 pm
What the heck is a fourth of July Black Snake? I have to know!!!!!!
carson On Friday, June 20 at 3:42 pm
I'm troubled. I can't figure out why these are called Marguerites. Perhaps a gal named Marguerite invented them? Ergo, did a gal named Margarita invent those? I'll do a little research.
And maybe I've been out in the sun too long today, but that bottom photo? Looks just like Donald Duck.
ELK On Friday, June 20 at 3:42 pm
NUTELLA yes!!
Yvonne Yung On Friday, June 20 at 3:49 pm
Ooooo..and how about adding a slice of banana in between the pb and the marshmellow~~~yummmmm *going to grab my bag of marshmellows right now!*
Ruth Ann On Friday, June 20 at 3:53 pm
Heavens to Betsy! I thought I saw a marshmallow when I clicked on the food tab! I was a marshmallow freak when I was a kid. I actually have everything to make these. Will have to use minis because, like I've said before, town is 12 miles away and I was just there. I like the idea of chocolate chips in there. Caramel sounds intriguing, too.
I must maintain some discipline for today……making the linguine with chicken tonight. It's going to be a constant battle for my pants and hips to maintain some peace this summer. The recipes are great.
Tell Hyacinth that she can bring a recipe with her when she comes to put cabinets in my garage.
HPH On Friday, June 20 at 3:54 pm
A Fluffernutter with crunch! Yummmmmy. (http://www.fluffernutter.com/pages/fluffernutter.html)
sharon On Friday, June 20 at 4:04 pm
Love the fance name of these. I'd like to gobble one up right now….stuck @ the airport with yucky food options.
Karen from Chicago On Friday, June 20 at 4:08 pm
So Ree, I am embarrassed to advertise it, when I know you are a cultured and educated person…but I am a South Park fan. (Don't hate me!), and there is an episode where, since fireworks are outlawed, the town commissions a ginormous black snake that requires blowtorches to start it. The problem? It takes over the town and travels multiple states. It's a funny episode, if you like their sense of humor. Which, apparently, I do. Sorry folks! (I think you have to have a sense of humor like mine to get through my day job…high school English teacher). Just thought I'd tell you about that, since you brought up the snake thing. I always had a fear of fireworks (still do),. and that's the only thing other than sparklers that I could tolerate on the 4th.
Jena On Friday, June 20 at 4:19 pm
Oh Yum-why can't I think up anything like these….
Whitney On Friday, June 20 at 4:21 pm
These look delicous! I think I'll have to try them soon! I also really like to make pretzollos: real simple, place pretzels on a cookie sheet and place a rollo on top on the pretzel and pop them in the oven till the rollos melt!! Yummy and def for the chocolate lovers
Melinda On Friday, June 20 at 4:21 pm
Well…when you think you've seen it all….someone tops it off. How cute is that!! Thanks
Rachel On Friday, June 20 at 4:23 pm
At the time of my comment, you had 159 comments before mine. I know that's a lot of reading and that you can't answer comments, but I have a burning question that I thought you might be able to answer. I always notice your dishes because I, too, am a lover of Jadite (also of blue Spode). Do you put yours in the dishwasher? I'm afraid to. Maybe you could do a Jadite segment in your home and garden section. I'd love to see some more of your pieces!
AngAk On Friday, June 20 at 4:30 pm
We made these in Girl Scouts with graham crackers and called them Robinson Crusoes. a fluffernutter treat!
Candi On Friday, June 20 at 4:30 pm
Hmmm. I'm thinking Nutella would be tasty with these, too. I just need to pick up the large marshmallows and I'm set to make the peanut butter variety and try it out with Nutella, too!!
Kelli On Friday, June 20 at 4:33 pm
yes, I do have all the ingredients for this in the house,…oops, wait I ate the bag of marshmallows yesterday.:-)
Chris A. On Friday, June 20 at 4:35 pm
You know those are so different, I'm going to have to try them!
Karen On Friday, June 20 at 4:39 pm
Can you imagine sprinkling a few or 8 chocolate chips on that peanut butter before topping it with the marshmallow? Yummo!
Video Mom On Friday, June 20 at 4:42 pm
Yummo! I made these as soon as I read this post. My kids loved them… except my 8 yo wanted his minus the peanut butter. (This child doesn't like peanut butter or chocolate! What is wrong with him?!?) Anyway, his marshmallow kept falling off. But he was still happy with it.
I agree with some of the previous posts. Chocolate would be awesome on these!
angelle On Friday, June 20 at 4:45 pm
I LOVE burned to a crispy black marshmallows! They're really good mixed into vanilla ice cream!
Dianna On Friday, June 20 at 4:48 pm
Your marguerites look yummy! I love the black snakes. Too bad fireworks are illegal where I live (OC, CA).
Ann On Friday, June 20 at 4:48 pm
My fiancee and I have been fans of Ritz crackers w/ Peanut Butter for awhile now but this takes it up a notch or two – YUM! Try Skippy All Natural Chunky PB with Smucker's Blackberry Fruit Spread on a Ritz – so good, it's dinner sometimes He likes them with a banana slice on top, too.
Kim On Friday, June 20 at 5:03 pm
This reminds me of my own house. I keep marshmallows, graham crackers, and chocolate bars on hand in the summer. My big kids will come home from college and want to have a wienie roast (of course, s'mores go with it) in the back 40. My husband has been sneaking the chocolate bars.
Tanis On Friday, June 20 at 5:03 pm
Wow – so frighteningly simple, terrifying and tasty-looking all at once. I'm intrigued enough to try them…and here's the best part – if you're like me, you could make as many or few as you'd like!
Mamadallama On Friday, June 20 at 5:05 pm
Oh no! The perfect non-chocolate treat and no marshmallows in the house! I don't have any Ritz crackers either. Methinks a shopping trip is in order. I'm with Ann (#172), crackers, peanutbutter and jelly is a great dinner. With a cold glass of milk, of course.
Kristin On Friday, June 20 at 5:07 pm
YUMMM!! These look delish! And so very easy. Hey, maybe my 14 year old could even make them for himself.
With no help from me.
If he'd get his own lazy butt up out of the computer chair.
Or would he set the house on fire? He IS an adolescent boy after all! ;0)
Cat On Friday, June 20 at 5:14 pm
I just wanted to tell you that I made your best ever bread pudding on Wednesday, took it to a potluck with the whiskey cream sauce and the everyone there loved it and wanted your recipe.
I told them where to find it but warned them about the calf nuts, since I was the only non-vegetarian there. It was odd to be in the minority for a change.
Debamundo On Friday, June 20 at 5:22 pm
Needs chocolate in there somewhere. Just a bit. A couple of chocolate chips between the PB and marshmallow maybe.
E.Liz On Friday, June 20 at 5:23 pm
PLEASE ! TELL ME ABOUT BLACK SNAKES . I HAVE NO IDEA WHAT YOU ARE TALKING ABOUT ! ( except the real ones i hate )
Another goodie : Dip saltines in water, then place on cookie sheet, place in oven just to re-crisp.Watch carefully. Delish !
Christina On Friday, June 20 at 5:26 pm
I'm a sucker for anything with peanut butter! It's a craving left over from three pregnancies in 4 years!
Julie On Friday, June 20 at 5:27 pm
those snakes are my favorite too! I always think you're supposed to separate each little circle, but I do not! I light the whole damn thing!
Claire On Friday, June 20 at 5:30 pm
Ok. So I have never heard of these black snake you speak of? I know, that must be shocking to the fireworks coniseur that you seem to be But hey, I grew up in the city, and fireworks are illegal, and we were law abiding citiizens and simply enjoyed the massive displays put on by the city over my grandma's lake property. If we werent too busy picking watermelon seeds off the front of our shirts. Ok I digress, so I you-tubed the black snake firework glory that you seem mesmerized by and BOY did i have a good laugh. They just look so silly, and of course had to share my new discovery, and now my coworkers think i totally nuts.
Ann On Friday, June 20 at 5:34 pm
Okay, these look really dang good. And simple to boot? Now that just almost pisses me off bc I make all these complicated desserts. Dang self.
cecelia On Friday, June 20 at 5:43 pm
Dern, wish I hadn't read this because now I have to make them and eat about a dozen. However, I've always ascribed to the notion that when washed down with steaming hot coffee, sugar, fat and carbs are cut in half.
texasmommy On Friday, June 20 at 6:00 pm
you can also make a peanut butter-ritz sandwich and then dip them in melted milk chocolate…delish!!!
my kiddos love those little black snakes, and they call them "poop snakes", you can figure out why!!!
Jenni in KS On Friday, June 20 at 6:09 pm
WHAT?!? Someone else makes these? Someone else calls them the same thing as me? AND someone else uses Ritz crackers instead of Saltines? This is just freakin' crazy. No one outside of my family who I've mentioned these to has ever heard of marguerites. They look at me like they think I'm whacked out on crack or something. See, folks! I am not weird! The famous Pioneer Woman and Hyacinth make them too. And. They. Are. Divine. The marguerites I mean. But also Ree and Hyacinth.
Jenni in KS On Friday, June 20 at 6:10 pm
Okay, and I see texasmommy has mentioned the peanut butter Ritz sandwiches dipped in melted chocolate. These make the most wonderful "cookies". Is there anything you can't do with a Ritz?
sweetdoggirl On Friday, June 20 at 6:17 pm
Black snakes are the best!
You're gonna have some gnarley stats with the title of this post. For sure.
And..and..you know, I'm sorry, but this is just too down-home. Too mid-western. Too countrified or something. I'm not sure I can go along with this. And then I read thru the comments and some one raves about BBQ fritos and vanilla ice cream!!? Yikes.
Suddenly I feel very VERY alone. It's dark in here.
I know I've got to check my CA "food snob" trip. I know I do. But THIS? I should make this? I..I just..I just don't know.
MaybeI have some growin' to do.
Alissa On Friday, June 20 at 6:26 pm
Oh Lordy, now we're in trouble…
connie On Friday, June 20 at 6:29 pm
Like some of the other ladies, I've made these with saltines ever since I was a little girl.
I love warm squishy marshmallows. Sometimes I just pop one in the microwave, nuke it till it plumps up, then devour it. It was really fun around Easter when I had marshmallows shaped like bunnies and ducks.
Bobby On Friday, June 20 at 6:32 pm
I made these about an hour ago. My kids inhaled them. The husband looked at me like I had three heads, as if to say, 'you want me to put that…in my MOUTH?'. HAHAHAHAHA!
They were good, though. The wuss…he doesn't know what he's missing.
Patrincia On Friday, June 20 at 6:32 pm
So similar to a Fluffer-Nutter sandwich (peanut butter and marshmallow cream on bread). We'll have to give these a try – Thanks!
Tracey On Friday, June 20 at 6:38 pm
I made these for my husband and 2 1/2 year old son and they loved them. I have featured this in my blog so I can share it with anyone who might not read your blog (as if there is such a person).
Cat On Friday, June 20 at 6:59 pm
Just had to pop in to say I tried those marvelous, wonderful potatoes tonight. YUM!!!!! I am so stuffed after steak, the potatoes and some Rosemary bread, yet I can't stop picking at the other potatoes that are on the sheet. Have I told you they are YUM?
BrandyL On Friday, June 20 at 7:22 pm
Mmmmmmmmm…those sure do look good. I wonder how they'd be with Nutella instead of PB? Hmmm, may have to give it a try!!
Keri On Friday, June 20 at 7:24 pm
Yum! I made these promptly after picking up some Ritz from the store. Another simple sugary snack…dangerous for me, you know!
Ginnie On Friday, June 20 at 7:29 pm
All my life, one of my secret comfort foods has been bread, smeared with peanut butter, with marshmallows on top and broiled. So I believe that this is as yummy as it looks.
Ann On Friday, June 20 at 7:35 pm
save a seat for me in the garage. your inhaling what now?
Michelle On Friday, June 20 at 7:38 pm
I've done graham crackers with pb, choc chips and marshmallow in the microwave, but…. DUH! Broiler!! so much better!!! and I always have ritz in the pantry.
To #112, my husband is also picky about the "right" side of the ritz to put the pnut butter on. Too funny!
But most importantly…..PLEEEZE tell us about the black snakes. The suspense is killing me!

In Japan, tonkatsufried, breaded pork cutletsare hugely popular. For her version, Grace Parisi uses low-fat pork tenderloins.
Tips from the F&W Test Kitchen
More Pork Recipes
More Fast Asian Recipes
- 1/4 cup ketchup
- 1/4 cup apple butter or applesauce
- 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
- 1 tablespoon low-sodium soy sauce
- 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
- 1 teaspoon unseasoned rice vinegar
- 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
- 2 egg whites, beaten
- 1 cup panko (Japanese bread crumbs)
- Two 8-ounce pork tenderloins, cut into 2-inch pieces and pounded 1/2 inch thick
- Salt
- 1/4 cup canola oil
- Steamed rice and steamed spinach, for serving
- In a saucepan, bring the ketchup, apple butter, Worcestershire, soy, mustard and vinegar to a simmer; transfer to 4 bowls. Cool.
- Put the flour, egg whites and panko in 3 separate shallow bowls. Season the pork cutlets with salt, then dredge in the flour, tapping off the excess. Dip the cutlets in the egg white, followed by the panko, pressing the crumbs to help them adhere.
- In a large skillet, heat 2 tablespoons of the oil. Add the cutlets and cook over moderate heat until golden brown, about 5 minutes. Brush the remaining 2 tablespoons of oil on the cutlets. Flip and cook until golden and cooked through, about 5 minutes longer. Transfer the tonkatsu to a work surface and cut into strips. Transfer to plates and serve with rice, spinach and the dipping sauce.

They rode a popular wave of discontent over spiralling corruption to force the government to bend to their demands and led an otherwise fractious parliament to arrive at a consensus on an anti-graft bill, in the process becoming media celebrities — their figurehead even hailed a national hero.
But now, activists led by Anna Hazare, whose campaign against corruption captured the imagination of millions across the country and prompted round-the-clock media coverage, say they are being targeted by official machinery for ruffling important feathers.
Hazare's aides Arvind Kejriwal, Kiran Bedi and Prashant Bhushan have all received breach of privilege notices from parliament for derogatory comments they reportedly made against legislators.
Kejriwal has also received another notice from the IT department asking him to pay 9.27 lakh rupees ($20,196) in dues for alleged violation of bond clauses while serving in the government.
Bedi received the privilege notice for accusing politicians of wearing "several masks", while Bhushan is said to have accused MPs of taking bribes to pass laws, though he denied this.
Anna Hazare himself has been accused of misusing a trust fund headed by him. Media reports said a government task force found the expenditure of 2.20 lakh rupees on Hazare's 60th birthday celebrations amounted to misapplication of funds of the Hind Swaraj Trust.
The whole affair has a precedent. In June, the government began probing the assets of popular yoga guru Baba Ramdev, whose $40 million-a-year yoga empire hadn't raised official eyebrows till then, after he launched an anti-graft agitation.
The government denies targeting anyone, but activists insist the timing, for instance, of the IT notice on Kajriwal smacks of a "vindictive attitude".
With 'Team Anna' threatening more activism in future, they will invite more scrutiny of their personal and public life, their past history and dealings dug up for any skeletons (deservedly or not).

President Barack Obama deserves a second term. Heres why.
First, a little history. When President Obama took office in January 2009, the U.S. banking system was on the verge of collapse, the U.S. economy lost 655,000 jobs in President George W. Bushs last month of office, and our country was spiraling toward a second Great Depression. Obama continued the Bush bailout of the Wall Street banks, which were deemed too big to fail. He stopped the bleeding of American jobs by getting Congress to pass an economic stimulus package which maintained or created thousands of jobs (including $1 billion for the Savannah River Site). Over Republican opposition (including Mitt Romneys), Obama prevented the U.S. automobile industry from going bankrupt, saving over a million jobs. Since then, more new jobs are being created each month and the economy is slowly recovering.
Despite Republican obstructionism and gridlock in Congress, Obama signed The Affordable Care Act into law essentially the same health insurance program that Romney signed into law as governor of Massachusetts. This act, or ObamaCare, prohibits private health insurance companies from denying coverage to people with a pre-existing condition, allows young people to stay on their parents health insurance until age 26, limits a patients out-of-pocket costs, extends health insurance coverage to 30 million uninsured people, requires insurance companies to use 85 percent of the premiums they receive on health care, and provides an individual mandate, upheld by the U.S. Supreme Court. According to the bipartisan Congressional Budget Office, ObamaCare will substantially reduce government spending on health care.
When Obama took office, the U.S. was fighting two wars in far-off lands. Obama kept his word by removing all U.S. troops from Iraq. He is withdrawing U.S. troops from Afghanistan, and he has pledged to withdraw all our troops by the end of 2014. Under Obamas leadership, the man most responsible for the September 11th attacks on the World Trade Center and the Pentagon, Osama bin Laden, has paid for his crimes; many other al Qaeda leaders have been killed by U.S. drone strikes; Egypt and Libya have been liberated from dictators and are moving toward democracies. The United States is more respected around the world today than before Obama took office. As president, Obama will keep us out of unnecessary foreign wars.
Not since before the Great Depression has Americas wealth been so concentrated in the hands of a small group of people (the 1 percent); the gap between the super-rich and the rest of us is greater here than in any other industrialized country; the middle-class has shrunk, and the wages of working people have stagnated. Obama will promote economic fairness. He will let the Bush tax cuts for the wealthy expire; he will work to close the loopholes which enable some people and large corporations to avoid paying taxes. If re-elected, Obamas top priority will be to put Americas 23 million unemployed people back to work, such as by rebuilding our nations deteriorating infrastructure.
Equally important are the things Obama will not do during his second term. He will not cut Social Security benefits, or raise the retirement age, or privatize Social Security. He will not replace Medicare with Vouchercare. He will not eliminate key pieces of the social safety net for the poorest among us, many of them children. These programs will not escape the Romney-Ryan budget-cutting ax. Unlike Romney, Obama will not make huge increases in the defense budget increases that we dont need and cant afford. Furthermore, Obama will not make immediate, drastic cuts in government spending which would throw more people out of work and plunge the economy into another deep recession. Federal regulations ensuring that we have safe drinking water, pure food, effective drugs, clean air and land free of toxic chemicals will not be weakened or repealed under President Obama. Lastly, Obama will not turn back the clock on womens health.
No president can solve Americas problems by himself; a president needs the cooperation and consent of Congress. But, a president must provide consistent, steadfast leadership. Romney has changed his position on many issues during this campaign.
Does anyone know what Romney really believes, or what he would do as president? With Romney, we would be buying a pig-in-a-poke.

Style: Aikido / FMA / Krotty--
Stick-induced blisters
So, I've been doing Kali for almost exactly a year now. (Just one night a week, and class is just an hour)
Most of the stick striking is fairly straight, for want of a better word. Not a lot of Redondo or Abanico striking.
Today I went to a Modern Arnis seminar, and there was a whole lot of those strikes, and a lot of "combative twirling" exercises, with a view to building up combinations, and facilitating shadow boxing type solo-practice.
By the end of the day, both hands are covered in blisters.
TL;DR - didn't twirl, now do twirl, Hands fucked
So, 3 questions...
1: Am I likely to be doing something wrong technically to cause these (I kept a moderate-firm grip with the whole palm, not just twisting between thumb and index)
2. How do I sensibly condition my hands for this? Obviously the best way is probably just "Train More". But, from your experience, do I train until the blisters form - rest until healed - repeat? Do I train through the blisters, and try to keep them clean?
3. Is conditioning my hands by whatever means recommended going to cause any long term problems (Carpel tunnel, arthritis, etc)?
I don't get to train enough classes each week because of home commitments and other arts etc, so some heavy solo work of the sort I learned today will do me the world of good.
PERMALOST if you're out there, I imagine the Indian clubs would give you a great perspective on this?

I've dealt with blisters from training before in my experience the best thing was to take it a little easy and lighten up on my grip and power to make it through class. At home you might take a break from training until you heal up. I would think it is horrible for you to ignore your blisters and continue training at the same pace. You'll callus up after a while.
Also, when i'm doing any kind of twirling or flicking techniques that rely less of power and more on speed and a whipping effect, I will sometimes loosen up the grip with my thumb and index finger to give the stick a greater range of motion. Of course that gripping technique can cause your index knuckle (ridge hand) will blister too.

I've dealt with that before. If I'm gonna be practicing a long time (class is usually 2 hours, and I sometimes get there early or stay late) I wear a pair of tactical gloves. They eliminate blisters and provide a little protection for when a stick dings the back of the hand. We do a stick twirling warmup where one of the common errors is opening the hand except for the index finger and thumb. All the fingers should grip the stick (except for if you're doing like jspeedy said- that's okay too).
You need the blisters to form callus properly, especially on your thumb base.
You're probably gripping too hard -- but, but -- you're going to get blisters no matter what.
I do nothing to avoid them, save taping them when the break. I like'em for the callus and well, they make me feel all serious and stuff.
Gloves are for pussies :-)Monkey Ninjas! Attack!

Thanks Guys & Gals. All good advice.
The stick thickness is certainly likely too, as my hands are very large.
I'm looking forward to getting more time in with these solo exercises :-)

As mentioned by JKDChick, I find newbs want to squeeze the stick to much, you have to learn when to grip hard and when to relax. A relaxed grip when appropriate will save your hands. It sounds easy, you grip on impacts and relax other times you still want to grip hard enough that if you get surprised you don't loose the stick. I like to do "marathon" style training sessions where you have to learn how to conserve your grip or your forearm will gas and you won't be able to continue.

I would suggest putting in more hours... also, the blisters should have formed earlier in your training. Maybe you need to hit harder to induce it? If you want it to callus faster, I would strongly recommend getting a tire and doing your combinations on it full force. Not only will it build up your calluses but your power generation, stick recoil control, timing sensitivity and endurance will improve! Of course, those other things are just minor details compared to being able to hold the stick longer.
Though that was only have kidding, I do seriously recommend getting a tire for tirework. You will benefit greatly from it. Also, your hands will peal terribly. I remember I was teaching one of my training buddies how to hit a tire - the first time he did it half his palm pealed about 1.5 hours after we were hitting the tire. Of course, it may be because of how soft your hands get from wearing boxing gloves.

Keep your eyes peeled (I know, as painful as that might be). There's a new book soon to be released later this summer: Westminster Seminary California--A New Old School, written by W. Robert Godfrey and D. G. Hart. This book was written to celebrate the 30th anniversary of Westminster Seminary California. Recently there have been some who claim to know what the seminary is all about, but such purported "histories" reveal more about the critics than they do the seminary.
The book has seven chapters:
1. The Call of the West
2. Heritage from the East: Roots of the Vision
3. The Founders, Their Vision, and Their Work
4. The Faculty
5. Changing Evangelical Environment
6. Challenges Among the Reformed
7. The Growing Old School
In a word, the seminary has sought to carry on the legacy of Old School Presbyterianism, an ethos embodied in the Scriptures, carried on in 16th and 17th century Reformed theology, trumpted from Old Princeton through the mighty pens of the Hodges, B. B. Warfield, Geerhardus Vos, and J. Gresham Machen, and subsequently planted in the sun-soaked earth of Southern California. Though WSC is is relatively new, it is nonetheless an Old School institution, hence a new old school.
The book spells out not only our history, details of key events in the seminary's life, but also our key theological committments within the broader evangelical culture. As one who has read a pre-publication draft of the book, I can tell you that it is as much about WSC as it is about the changing evangelical theological landscape on the West Coast. One of the chief contentions of the book is that WSC has never waivered in its committment to the Reformed faith, but rather, the changing and fluid evangelical scene around the seminary has certainly changed. Once committed to such things as biblical inerrancy, for example, many evangelical institutions have drifted from their doctrinal moorings, and they have done so in a relatively short amount of time. WSC has held the same ground for thirty-plus years. We have not moved to the right; the surrounding theological culture has moved significantly to the left.
Nevertheless, as a whole, WSC is marked by the following five characteristics.
1. Biblical. WSC is committed to:
- the inspiration and inerrancy of the Bible.
- the Christ-centered character of all the Bible.
- the Bible's comprehensive regulation of faith and worship.
- the Bible's authority in all it teaches about all callings and all of life.
2. Confessional. WSC is committed to:
- the teaching of the Westminster Standards and the Three Forms of Unity as a faithful summary of the teaching of the Bible.
- the priorities of the confessions which we believe are the priorities of the Bible.
- the confessions as vitally relevant for the life of the church today.
- the confessions as faithful guides to minsters for the work of the ministry today.
3. Pious. WSC is committed to:
- cultivating piety in the hearts and lives of its students.
- encouraging growing faith in the promises of God and growing holiness of life in all Christians.
- teaching students to preach faithfully, expositing and applying the whole counsel of God.
- developing knowledge of and involvement in evangelism and missions.
4. Scholarly. WSC is committed to:
- careful and thorough engagement with the best scholarship.
- a scholarly development and defense of Reformed orthodoxy.
- encouraging students to love God with all their minds.
- preparing pastors for the church who have had an excellent scholarly education.
5. Passionate. WSC is committed to:
- being valiant for truth.
- pursuing our faith and work with zeal, not calm indifference.
- serving Christ, His Gospel, and His Church
As an institution, we are firmly committed to these principles. If you're interested in finding out more about WSC and reading this book, you can find an excerpt here. Tolle et Lege! Take up and read!

Sept. 19, 2012
ATHENS, Ga. --- Georgia men's tennis head coach Manuel Diaz has announced the addition of Tristan Venables to the staff for the 2012-13 season as a volunteer coach.
Venables attended and played tennis at the University of Denver before earning a bachelor of contemporary arts degree from Edith Cowan University in 2009. While at Denver, he played the No. 1 position and was named the team's MVP in 1997-98.
From 1999-2012, he served as the head coach at Wembley Downs Tennis Club in Perth, Western Australia, which has an enrollment of over 400 members. He played State League from 1995-2012 and was part of the National League Finals Team held at the Australian Open in 2012. In 2009 he was one of 16 coaches given Tennis Australia High Performance Coach Qualification status.
"Tristan is a terrific addition," Diaz said. "He brings a wealth of experience and fresh new ideas to our staff. He has been very well-received by both our players and coaches, and with the year already underway he is doing a fantastic job. We're already seeing the benefits of Tristan's work with our team."
Venables visited UGA while coaching in 2005, where he met his wife, Jessica, a Georgia graduate.

Top SNLers Who Blew Up. Or Blew Out
Here are the Top 'SNL' cast members who blew up. Or blew out, starting with:
Blew Up: Tracy Morgan
Blew Out: Chris Kattan and Cheri Oteri
Let's let Morgan, who stars on NBC's '30 Rock,' was nominated for an Emmy Award and is releasing his first book, 'I Am the New Black', explain this one. "I had my finger on the pulse of urban comedy, but when I brought my act to 'SNL,' those mother--------- just felt bad for me. None of the cast I came up with saw this future for me. No, sir. All I have to say about that is, where's Chris Kattan now? Where's Cheri Oteri now? That b---- can't even get arrested." Not exactly eloquent, but possibly accurate.
Blew Up: Bill Murray
Blew Out: Brian Doyle-Murray
Bill replaced the highly popular Chevy Chase and was almost run off the show. Fans complained that he was a poor replacement for Chase who left SNL for a career, and a love interest, far away in Hollywood. But Billy, that little engine that could, kept at it, became an SNL favorite, and later starred in such box office powerhouses as 'Tootsie,' the 'Ghostbusters' sequels and 'Charlie's Angels.' He also became a critically acclaimed actor and was nominated for an Academy Award for 'Lost in Translation.' Older brother Brian followed him to SNL and later to Hollywood but couldn't get out from under his younger brother's long, dark and awesome shadow.
Blew Up: Eddie Murphy
Blew Out: Tony Rosato
Eddie Murphy almost single-handedly resuscitated a flagging SNL franchise suffering from the exodus of its original cast. But it turns out he was just getting started. With films like '48 Hours,' 'Beverly Hills Cop,' and 'The Nutty Professor,' not only did he define the role of street-wise smart-ass, but he also became the second-highest grossing actor in motion picture history. Cast mate Rosato? After an undistinguished career on SNL, he was arrested and charged with criminal harassment of his wife due to deteriorating mental health. We hope he recovers.
Blew Up: Julia Louis-Dreyfus
Blew Out: Brad Hall
Let's be honest. These spouses were both relatively quiet during their time on SNL. But while Louis-Dreyfus has won two Emmy Awards starring in 'Seinfeld,' the defining sitcom of the 1990s, and 'The New Adventures of Old Christine,' Hall starred in, well, what did he star in again?
Blew Up: John Belushi
Blew Out: Chris Farley
The connections between these two comedians are eerie. Both started their careers in the Chicago Second City. Both were highly explosive performers with an intensity almost too great for the small confines of television. And they both died at age 33 of a cocaine overdose. But while Belushi left us with comedic masterpieces like 'National Lampoon's Animal House' and 'The Blues Brothers,' Farley's filmography and effect on comedy were much smaller. Both left too soon and are still sorely missed.
Blew Up: Adam Sandler
Blew Out: Dana Carvey
While Dana Carvey was coming to the end of an incredible run on SNL (his creations include The Church Lady, Hans from 'Hans and Franz', and Garth from 'Wayne's World'), Sandler was just starting out. Unfortunately, heart problems and a surgical mishap slowed Carvey's career down. After leaving SNL, Sandler quickly became Mr. Hollywood Box Office starring in 'The Waterboy,' 'Big Daddy,' 'Anger Management' and 'The Longest Yard.'

Your comment on Jim Belushi and Chris Farley is incorrect. I think you mean John Belushi..
- Friday 23 October
What type of low-rent trash netmag can't tell the difference between John and Jim Belushi? Hire a copy editor, for chrissake.
- Friday 23 OctoberBy dj
I second that jeri-let's not put out to the universe about Jim-who is still here with us, but I would believe it is Mr. Sossi's intent to mean John (writer could you please update or acknowledge the misprint for the sake of the Belushi families).
- Friday 23 OctoberBy crystal
wow, way to fail with your Farley comment there.
Tommy Boy was released in 1995 - grossing $32,648,673 (making $2,332,048.07 a year)
Blues Brothers (released 1980): $57,229,890 (making that $1,973,444.48 a year)
Unless, of course you DID mean Jim, in which case yeah...Life According to Jim is awesome. Vomit.
(way to do your research guys)
- Friday 23 OctoberBy Jim
What? What are you talking about, "per year." Per year average since the release of a movie makes absolutely no sense. In 1980, a 57 mil box office take was a MONSTER hit. 32 mil in 1995, is not. If you factor in population and ticket prices, Blues Brothers was over 5 times more succesful. Per year average...not too smart.
- Saturday 24 OctoberBy GEORGE
- Friday 23 OctoberBy crystal
Jim: look at any inflation calculator for the opening numbers of both the movies. compare the movies for 1995 (Tommy Boys release date).
While I negated inflation before, I think you can still see 900,000 does not a blockbuster make.
- Friday 23 OctoberBy Jim
Crystal, Still not sure what you're talking about? In 2005 dollars, Blues Brothers was $136 mil and Tommy Boy was $48 mil. That's a direct comparison. Check Lee's Movies and it will give you adjusted box office totals and statistices. Blues Brother's was a HUGE blockbuster, Tommy Boy was not. Not sure what math your using to come up with $900,000 or what exactly that represents?
- Friday 23 OctoberBy Mike
Please tell me you had the brains to incorporate the difference in movie ticket prices with your movie "recap" . Also, did you include DVD sales?

Blew Up: Jim Belushi? (AAAH when? was my back turned for a second?) If it only was John Belishi that was still with us!
Blew Out: Chris Farley! yeah, would have continued to make us laugh...if he hadn't idolized John so much.
- Friday 23 OctoberBy wildkatzaz
Yeah - geez - Jim has done pretty well for himself - and is still very much alive!
- Friday 23 October
Okay first off, like several people said, don't confuse Jim Belushi (alive) with John Belushi (dead but legendary)
Secondly, a real pop culture fan cares very little about how many gigs an artist made or how much money they made. Chris Farley was the John Belushi of his time and was equally legendary and his untimely death was equally devastating. Shame on you for calling him a blow-out!
- Friday 23 OctoberBy Reena
now that was well said!
that is how I feel also.
I was around for Chris Farley and John Belushi -
they both were hilarious and will remain a legend in my heart forever!
- Friday 23 OctoberBy Christine
This type of mistake (Jim instead of John Belushi) does show up in print journalism as well, but I see far more of these mistakes on web articles. Having an editor or fact-checker may seem old school, but it makes a difference.

I hate to say this, but the unfunniest cast members of 30 Rock are Tracy Morgan and Jane Krakowski. Each falls into the category of grating characters (at least on that show) and were far better on their prior regular series.
If it weren't for Tina Fey and Alec Baldwin, who ARE funny, I'm not sure I'd even tune in.
- Friday 23 OctoberBy Mike
Thank God it's just your thoughts on it....Both Tracy, AND Jane are hilarious...30 Rock ( and the office) have to be the funniest written sitcoms on TV right now...hands down...also just my thought..
- Friday 23 OctoberBy nick
Have to agree about the Office. Easily my favorite comedy on TV.
- Friday 23 OctoberBy RKL
Never understood the Adam Sandler / Dana Carvey thing. Carvey is funny, Sandler is like watching a wet piece of cardboard dry in the sun. Of course the same can be said of John Revolta and for some inexplicable reason he's a "star" too.

Anonymous Transcends the Internet; Takes to the Air
New tool supports encrypted communication over Ham radio.
Reports say the ultra-secret hacker group has developed a meansfor communicating over encrypted radio connections. A new tool called AirChat, created by a developer who claims Anonymous affiliation, encrypts communication over radio waves. The system requires a handheld radio transceiver attached to a Windows, Mac OS, or Linux system running the AirChat software.
As a communication medium, AirChat is a throwback to the modem era, in which digital data is encoded and transmitted over an audio connection. The real innovation is the prospect of secrecy and the fact that it works without any form of wired connection. The system can simply access any unused frequency, making it difficult for government or industry to even know where and when to start spying, and if they did happen to pick up the signal, the message would be unreadable due to strong encryption. According to the developer, a user who does not have a suitable transceiver could still receive a transmission from a pirate FM station using a conventional FM radio.
The developers believe this technology could one day allow users to communicate for free without the need for Internet access, a phone line, or the mobile phone network, all of which are subject to industry and government control. Transmission rates are slow by modern standards, meaning that this medium is best for transmitting text-based messages and documents.
AirChat is still in development but appears to be performing well in tests. According to early reports, the software is rather complex at this point and is not something that a non-technical user could easily implement.

By Cheryl PellerinAmerican Forces Press Service
WASHINGTON, Sept. 11, 2011 Of all the events that took place when terrorists attacked the United States 10 years ago, the best memories are those of the heroes who stood up to protect America's freedom, the commander of Regional Command Southwest said at Camp Leatherneck, Afghanistan, today.
Marine Corps Maj. Gen. John A. Toolan Jr., who also commands the 2nd Marine Expeditionary Force, spoke to troops from a wooden stage on a cloudless late afternoon in southern Afghanistan's Helmand province.
"I really choose not to remember the barbaric acts of the al-Qaida terrorists who were trained right here in Afghanistan," Toolan said.
Damage done to the twin towers in New York City and to the Pentagon in Washington is not what he chooses to remember, he said.
"What I choose to remember on the 10th anniversary of 9/11 are all the heroes who have stepped up to protect what we cherish very dearly -- our freedom," the general said.
In a brief ceremony at the 1,600-acre Marine Corps base, service members said prayers, read poetry and sang songs in remembrance of the heroes of 9/11 and those of the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan.
During the commemoration, a service member read a timeline of the events of 9/11. Each time she read of a plane crashing into a building or a tower collapsing, a bell tolled and those in the audience observed a moment of silence for the fallen.
"I remember when I heard on the radio about this individual called Todd Beamer who declared, 'Let's roll' as he and a few other gutsy heroes took down the Flight 93 terrorists. … Those are the kinds of Americans I choose to remember," Toolan said.
The general said he also remembers then-President George W. Bush, who "never cowered" and promised the nation would respond to the attacks.
"Make no mistake," President George W. Bush said on the afternoon of Sept. 11, 2001, in a message to the nation, "the United States will hunt down and punish those responsible for these cowardly acts."
A few days ago in the Afghan capital of Kabul, Toolan said, he noticed people cleaning a statue -- a monument to an individual named Ahmad Shah Massoud.
"He's an Afghan national hero, one who stood up against the Taliban and al-Qaida and was eventually killed," the general said. "He was killed two days before the 9/11 event. He was attacked by suicide bombers -- two Arabs posing as journalists. They [knew] that he had warned the United States that a potential major attack was planned on our home territory. He's a hero, and I choose to remember him today." Hundreds of thousands attended his funeral, the general added, and today Afghans hold him up as a hero.
Toolan, who is from New York, said he heard after the 9/11 attacks about heroic acts performed by many of the people with whom he grew up.
"It reinforced my faith in America," he said. "Friends who were stockbrokers, firefighters, cops, bartenders -- a lot of those -- they all had stories of incredible heroism. When I listened to their stories … about what they had done, I said, 'You're doggone heroes. You should join the Corps.'"
The general added, "I know many of you standing out there right now had family and friends who gave their last full measure."
Among those gathered for the commemoration today, he said, was "a young sergeant who enlisted after losing both his brothers in New York City in the towers. Or a gentleman named Simon Turner, who's a friend of one of our British officers. Or Chris Hamilton, who lost his brother-in-law Bill Kelly. And Maj. Clark's Uncle Manny.
"This is who we choose to remember because this is who we are," Toolan added. "This is what America is made of: … millions of rawboned freedom fighters, [millions of] fire-breathing freedom fighters."
During the past 10 years, the U.S. military forces and their coalition partners have demonstrated incredible heroism, the general said, naming a handful of recent Medal of Honor recipients. They include Navy Petty Officer 2nd Class Michael Monsoor, Navy Lt. Michael Murphy, Marine Corps Cpl. Jason Dunham, Army Sgt. 1st Class Paul Smith, Army Pfc. Ross McGinnis, Army Staff Sgt. Salvatore Giunta and Marine Corps Cpl. Dakota Meyer, who will receive the honor from President Barack Obama on Sept. 15.
"My inspiration on 9/11 comes from the spirit of those who stepped into the breach," Toolan said. "People like you, who make me want to shout your names out to the terror merchants who try and deny us our freedom.
"It is really all of you out there today I choose to remember," the general added, "now and in the future."

The FDA said it needs to conduct more research to see if eating rice over time can raise risk for cancer and other health wies.The Agency's new guidance, released Sept. 6 for consumers, however notes that the long-term health risks remain unclear
"These are the next steps," said Dr. Suzanne C. Fitzpatrick, senior advisor for toxicology at the FDA's Center for Food Safety and Applied Nutrition. "To look at exposure levels, to analyze the risk, and determine how to minimize that risk for the overall safety of consumers, including vulnerable groups like children and pregnant women," she said.
Arsenic is a chemical that occurs naturally in the environment, and combines with other elements to come in tow forms: organic and inorganic. The chemical can occur naturally in soil, or be added to the environment through industrial processes like burning of wood and fuel, or through use of pesticides. Arsenic can't be destroyed, so wind may send particles into the air, water and land -- and subsequently into our food and water supplies.
Inorganic arsenic is the more toxic form of the chemical. Prolonged exposure has been linked to increased risk for cancers, but also other health issues including heart disease, diabetes and neurological deficits.
Previous research - including studies from Dartmouth University and Consumer Reports -- found concerning levels of inorganic arsenic linked to rice, and rice products like infant formula and cereal bars.
The FDA decided to conduct its own tests of more than 1,300 samples of rice and related products, and determined the levels of "inorganic arsenic" were too low to cause immediate health damage.
Average levels of inorganic arsenic ranged from 2.6 to 7.2 micrograms per serving in rices tested, with instant rice containing lowest levels and brown rice at the high end. For tested rice products, the average inorganic arsenic levels ranged from 0.1 to 6.6 micrograms per serving, with infant formula having the least and rice pasta at the other end of the range.

TO: EQCA Members
This memo lays out our thinking and approach to restoring marriage equality in
Returning to the Ballot – 2010 vs. 2012
We listened very carefully to the thousands of you who responded to our membership survey. You provided passionate arguments for both 2010 and 2012, as well as detailed comments about why you prefer one election to another. We read every one of them. In the end, you voted in favor of 2010 by a margin of 69 percent to 24 percent, with 7 percent unsure.
We agree with you. Under the right conditions (which we explain below), we support returning to the ballot in November 2010 for the following reasons (which many of you expressed):
1. Momentum. Never before have either of us experienced a situation where there are so many volunteers who are willing to knock on doors, speak to voters, and take ownership over moving voters to marriage equality. With field organizers on the ground guiding their efforts, we can ensure there will be literally hundreds of thousands of conversations at people's doors. In our view, this work could be significantly reduced if we wait until 2012. If the election were not to take place for three-plus years, we believe we would have a difficult time maintaining the momentum and engaging those who are ready to sprint to a finish line. The momentum and determination factor may sound soft, but in our experience, it is this work that, more than anything else, will move voters our way. Its importance should not be underestimated.
2. Top of the ticket. All of the leading Democratic contenders for governor and other statewide offices in 2010 strongly support overturning Prop 8. In 2012, we likely will not have a strong supporter of marriage equality heading the ticket of either party.
3. Vying for attention—LGBT national funding priorities. In November 2010, ours would likely be the only major LGBT initiative on the ballot. In 2012, that likely will not be the case. Being on the ballot in different years from other states should greatly increase the funds we can raise. Additionally, in 2012, the LGBT community will once again be counted on to financially support the Obama campaign. This of course is not an issue in 2010.
4. Vying for attention in California. In 2012, the entire legislature will be redistricted by an independent commission resulting in what will likely be the most expensive and contested election for legislative seats in over a decade. As a result, money and volunteers will be more difficult to come by. In addition, in 2010, we could draw from the many Obama volunteers in
5. National movement. In addition to the wins to date in New England and
6. Waiting has costs. In the time between 2010 and 2012, a number of Californians will forever lose the chance to marry the person they love or witness their son or daughter get married, while others will have to wait in a state of limbo to see if they will be able to marry. We should not wait any longer than we have to.
Arguments for 2012
There are strong arguments for 2012, including:
In the end, a 2010 election will likely be very close. From our vantage point, the deciding factors to return to the ballot in 2010 rather than 2012 include the energy and momentum and the political landscape in
From Potential to Reality
While we believe conditions are such that there's real potential for victory in 2010, without a powerful and comprehensive campaign plan and well-designed campaign structure that is supported and owned by us all (donors, grassroots, LGBT groups—both new and established, organized labor, etc.), we believe we will fall short and lose. We want to be clear: Equality California will actively participate in creating this plan and structure; however, the campaign to win back marriage belongs to all of us and will not be designed or run by any one organization. Moreover, while introducing ballot language is simple, winning an affirmative referendum on marriage equality in
Whether our community goes back to the ballot in 2010 or later, Equality California is committed—in partnership with our local, state-wide and national partners—to doing the persuasion work to move Californians towards marriage equality. Under the leadership of EQCA Field Director
We Need You
We need your active and sustained leadership and engagement to implement a winning program for
The lay of the land in
Thank you for all you do for equality.

Alas, CARP is not applicable in every case, sometimes one have to run OSPF etc. And what I'd like to have functional looks like a simple yet reasonable generalization from just a set of interchangeable PF boxes to an actually distributed stateful packet filter that won't care about which of its nodes sees an IP packet. P.S. In OSPF, one can assign different costs to the paths, but that would break nice symmetry of the network configuration I considered. -- Yar _______________________________________________ freebsd-pf_(_at_)_freebsd_(_dot_)_org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-pf To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-pf-unsubscribe_(_at_)_freebsd_(_dot_)_org"

Google has a neural network that can recognize objects
It only took 16,000 computer processors to do it, but over the span of just a few years a group of Google scientists were able to simulate how the human brain identifies things they find on the Internet. More specifically, the neural network was able to train itself to recognize cats. The way it was able to recognize them actually reflected biological theories where objects are identified by trained individual neurons in the brain.

Sociology and AnthropologyThe Study of Sociology
Sociologists ask how human societies are changing. Focusing on groups and patterns of relationships among people rather than the individuals themselves, the study of sociology helps equip students with knowledge and skills to understand, analyze and improve their world. The discipline's rich subject matter ranges from the intimacy of family life to the hostility of the mob, from religious behavior to criminal behavior. Sociology teaches that our membership in groups and our interaction with larger social forms both shape and are shaped by our personal action.
Practica and Internships. Practica and internships provide excellent opportunities for learning and career preparation. Sociology students at Susquehanna can choose from a variety of experiences at institutions and social service agencies in central Pennsylvania. Field personnel and department faculty members jointly supervise students.
Recent practica positions include casework with the mentally disabled and delinquent youth, medical social work, inmate rehabilitation and addiction rehabilitation. Students have also worked in child day care, foster care and with local human service planning agencies. The department regularly adds new practica to meet specific student interests.
Off-Campus Study. The university participates in a variety of off-campus study programs for interested students. Participants in the Philadelphia Center program live in an urban setting as interns in the public or private sectors. Students in the Lutheran College Washington Consortium attend seminars and intern for a semester in Washington, D.C. Further information about off-campus programs is available in the Active Learning section.
Teaching Certification. Students interested in elementary or secondary education as a career must meet certain state-mandated requirements. Additional information is available from the Department of Education. At minimum, these students must complete SOCI:101 Principles of Sociology, SOCI:102 Social Problems, SOCI:331 Social Control and Deviance, SOCI:311 Sociological Theory, SOCI:341 Family and Kinship, SOCI:413 Race, Ethnicity, and Minorities, SOCI:431 Seminar: Social Change, ANTH:162 Introduction to Cultural Anthropology, and SOCI:220 Research Methods. Sociology majors preparing for teacher certification may substitute student teaching for the two sociology or anthropology electives.
Honors. The departmental honors program encourages and recognizes outstanding academic performance in the major. The department invites qualified students to join the program. To graduate with departmental honors in sociology, candidates must:
- have a GPA of 3.5 or above in the major and 3.25 or above overall,
- write a senior thesis or equivalent paper based on departmental seminars, and
- sit for an oral honors examination.
Interdisciplinary options. Psychology and sociology majors may also choose the minor Human Resource Management. This minor requires: ACCT:200 Financial Accounting, ECON:105 Elements of Economics or ECON:202 Principles of Microeconomics, MGMT:360 Management and Organizational Behavior, MGMT:361 Human Resource Management, MGMT:461 Projects in Human Resource Management and MGMT:462 Human Resource Planning. An additional four semester hours of electives are chosen from MGMT:460 Advanced Organizational Behavior and ECON:325 Labor Economics.

By breathing easier
from Saint John, N.B.
From the moment I pushed the on switch, I've enjoyed this product! It's neutral colour and slick design ensures it blends nicely with my decor. It is lightweight making it easy to move from room to room.It is user friendly and the 3 settings cover all areas of contaminated air. The timer allows me the freedom to turn it on and not have to worry about remembering to shut it off. It runs so quietly, I forget it is on. Great product, highly recommend it !!
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

In the world of digital marketing, game-changing ideas seem to come out of nowhere, and conversely, what seems like hot technology today can turn out to be, well, fads (does anyone remember Google Wave? or Foursquare for that matter?).
To keep up with it all, we've developed insatiable appetites for the best news, tips and trends from the world of websites, online marketing and social media. But we get depressed if we can't share it, so we boil it all down to a snappy newsletter and send it out every couple of months to those who are interested. Which may well be you. Sign up here.
